        "raw_content": "Fundamentals of Building Science: Intro\nThe disruptions in Middle East oil supplies that resulted in the energy crises in 1973 and 1979 coupled with the recognition that U.S. oil production had peaked (about 1970) abruptly caused modifications in building construction methods, such as tighter construction standards, increased insulation, reduced ventilation regulation, and more efficient systems.\nThese changes resulted in complaints about poor indoor air quality and sick buildings, and thermal discomfort linked to problems in performance and durability. These issues sparked an increased effort of scientific study in building performance that, decades later, involves recognizing the relationships among building components, equipment, and building systems during design, construction, and operation of the building. In the new millennium, climate change, limited resources, volatility in energy markets, and a need for sustainable practices have emerged as issues that further drive scientific study of buildings.\nBuilding science is the study of building dynamics and the functional relationships between a building's components, equipment, and systems, and the effects associated with occupancy and operation, and the outdoor environment to understand and prevent problems related to building design, construction, and operation. Through application of information coming from many disciplines (i.e., construction technology, material science, physics, meteorology, engineering, and architectural design), the building science field works to understand the physical performance of building parts, buildings, and the built environment, and translates it into proper design and construction methods. The goal is to maximize occupant comfort, health, and safety; and optimize performance through energy efficiency and structural durability. Building science plays a vital role in recognizing how changes and advancements in components, equipment, and systems affect the role of the various building materials and systems.\nIn this Section, selected concepts related to building science are introduced. These topics include a discussion of thermal characteristics of the building envelope, indoor air, moisture dynamics, ventilation, and thermal insulation. They are introduced because of their connection to building electrical and mechanical systems.\nNext: The Building",

If not (e.g. diversity), the theme is included qualitatively. This is an evaluation of the social costs and benefits that are not covered in the financial results. The evaluation uses external (academic) studies as well as our own data.\nScope: The impact analysis focuses exclusively on the activities of NS in the Netherlands, which are included as fully as possible.\nReference for the methodology and scope: For a detailed description of the methodology and scope for each theme, please see www.ns.nl/mvoberekeningen. (Dutch only)\nChanges: Improvements have been made to the method for measuring delays; this could only be done retrospectively for 2015. The old method was used for 2014. For safety with respect to the car, we made use of a more up-to-date external source and incorporated this in retrospective calculations for 2015 and 2014.\nA corrective factor is applied for inflation for each year.\nIn many of the themes, NS works with partners to improve the results and the social impact. Together with ProRail, we are for example improving rail safety, punctuality and journey times. Despite the fact that a share of the impact in many of the themes could be assigned to our partners in the sector, we are not yet going so in the calculations. We are looking at methods for including such a split in subsequent publications. The positive and negative impacts are being presented separately for each topic, given that it is not possible to balance them off against each other (because the positive impact is often expressed as the difference with respect to transport by car).",

Nathan Bedford Forrest on License Plate\nPhoto Courtesy - Getty Images(JACKSON, Miss.) -- The Mississippi division of the Sons of Confederate Veterans had its first specialty license plate approved in 2002. The plate has remained the same for eight years, but this year the group proposed five new designs to commemorate the 150th anniversary of the Civil War.\nOne of those designs features Confederate Gen. Nathan Bedford Forrest, a heralded cavalry leader who also is known for commanding a massacre of black Union Army soldiers at the Battle of Fort Pillow and for being a founding member of the Ku Klux Klan. It is the latter distinction that has some in the state calling for the plate to be denied issuance.\n\"I think it's offensive,\" said Derrick Johnson, state president of the Mississippi NAACP. \"We view the Ku Klux Klan as a domestic terrorist organization and they should be treated as such,\" he said.\nThe NAACP is planning to send a letter to Gov. Haley Barbour asking that he publicly denounce the license plate and use his office to prevent it from being issued. Johnson said the plate is offensive to nearly 40 percent of the population, which is the percentage of African-Americans in the state. But supporters of the plate believe Forrest should not be dismissed because of that one time in history.\n\"It's been said he disavowed the Klan later in life and that puts him in the same category as former Supreme Court Justice Hugo Black and former West Virginia Sen. Robert Byrd,\" said Greg Stewart, a Sons of Confederate Veterans member.\nBoth Black and Byrd had early ties to the KKK but managed to not have their careers overshadowed by them.\n\"If you don't like him, you certainly don't have to buy it,\" Stewart said. According to Stewart, money from the purchase of the specialty tags will be used to restore crumbling Confederate flags that are housed in the Department of Archives and History. He hopes the attention being brought to the proposed Forrest design will raise awareness about the group's mission and the history of the Confederacy. But Johnson and the NAACP believe a state license plate is no place to honor a man with Forrest's background.\n\"Our position is that any heritage of hate should not be tolerated in the state of Mississippi nor in any other state in this country,\" Johnson said.\nThe design featuring Forrest is being proposed for release in 2014. A vote by the Mississippi legislature would take place in 2013.\ntagged Gen. Nathan Bedford Forrest, KKK, License Plate, Mississppi, Sons of Confederate Veterans in National News General",

Flooded streets that might have been barely passable during the day now posed too many risks for drivers still hoping to reach family and friends in town.\nThe situation, however, is improving in some parts of Hoboken. The floodwaters have receded in the past two days and continued to go down overnight, making some roads safe to drive on that only hours before had been unpassable.\nWith around 25 percent of this New Jersey city across the Hudson River from New York City now underwater, many of its 50,000 residents are without power, and four days after most stores shut down, residents are running low on food.\nIn an apartment building at First and Harrison, residents grilled frozen pizza.\n\"It's scary. We don't have that much food. I mean, we prepared a little bit,\" one person said.\nAround 10 p.m., a panicked Daniel Rosado managed to receive help from the National Guard to reach his two young cousins, ages 12 and 9, stuck in town. It was his last hope of reaching them that night.\n\"My friends tried to help me out, they got stuck too,\" he said.\nAlthough National Guard trucks drove door to door trying to assist people in need, the wait for some residents became agonizing. It could be seven to 10 days, residents said, before Hoboken has power again. The generators that so many are using for power only have so much gas on hand.\ntagged Flooding, Hoboken, Hurricane Sandy, New Jersey in National News General, Weather\nIn Flooded Hoboken, NJ, National Guard Rescues Stranded Residents\nEmile Wamsteker/Bloomberg via Getty Images(HOBOKEN, N.J.) -- Across the Hudson River from storm-battered New York City, residents in Hoboken, N.J., waded through near waist-high water with their children and their belongings.\n\"Our basement got completely flooded,\" said resident Susie Zuckerman. \"The water started gushing through the garage door in our building. We're doing the best we can do. We're not going to leave -- there's nowhere to go.\"\nSuperstorm Sandy's massive storm surge flooded the streets of Frank Sinatra's birthplace, where the water has receded 18 inches in the last 24 hours. The usually bustling downtown Hoboken area is now dotted with debris and broken storefronts, as the sound of generators churns.\nOver 50,500 people live in the two-square-mile city, and many residents said they were told not to expect power for up to 10 days. In the meantime, Hoboken City Hall was set up as a shelter.\nThe communal area of one apartment building was jammed with its residents all charging phones, making toast and playing with children as Halloween pumpkins lined the room. City councilman David Mello said he was weighing his options about whether to have his family leave.\n\"I might get my family out of here, but I'm gonna stick around. This is obviously unparalleled,\" Mello said. \"The biggest concern here is we might run out of gas for the generators. We only have more to last 48 hours. If that runs out, we'll have to evacuate.\"\nThe National Guard arrived on Tuesday night to help with search and rescue. Army personnel used boats to help get to people trapped in their apartments.\n\"I've been waiting to leave for three days,\" said a woman named Rosie as she piled into the back of an Army truck with a smile on her face.\nAt another apartment building on the corner of First and Harrison, a mother held her baby as they peered out of their third-floor apartment, waiting to be rescued.\nHoboken is also home to many New York City commuters. Samantha Bennet, 26, works for an Internet start-up in the city called Passenger and left Hoboken Wednesday with her husband Steve Bennet after their apartment building flooded, and went to nearby Jersey City to stay with a friend.\n\"There was about eight feet of water in our basement,\" Bennet said. \"It has receded. We were actually pretty lucky...every basement apartment has at least four to six feet of water.\"\nBennet said her apartment was on the third floor, so they weren't affected by flooding, but that they didn't have power or hot water. Although the storm surge came up Monday night, she didn't evacuate until Wednesday because only basement and ground floor apartments in Hoboken were ordered to evacuate.\n\"It was like an exodus, people with backpacks and bags walking out of Hoboken,\" she said.\nBennet said the standing water is starting to smell like oil from submerged cars on the streets, and sewage because the sewer system was backed up.\n\"People were using half of fan covers to clean out the gutters so the water would go into the sewer,\" she said. \"They were also using rakes, but they kept breaking ... and as soon as they got the leaves out, more would come back in.\"\nIn the wake of the widespread damage in New Jersey, Gov. Chris Christie Wednesday issued an executive order to postpone all Halloween celebrations in his state until Monday. For those residents living on the New Jersey coastline, Christie described the damage as \"unfathomable\" and \"unthinkable.\"\nWednesday, October 31, 2012 at 10:43PM by Carmen Cox Permalink\ntagged Flooding, Hoboken, Hurricane Sandy, National Guard, New Jersey, Rescues in National News General, Natural Disaster\nDozens Injured in N.J.

        "raw_content": "Teaching and Learning about the Mediterranean in East Asia: A Dialogue on Taiwanese and South Korean Experiences > Registration\nName Eun-Jee Park Date 17-01-16 16:34\nEun-Jee Park\neunjeepark@gmail.com\nTeaching and Learning about the Mediterranean in East Asia: A Dialogue on Taiwanese and South Korean Experiences\nThe Mediterranean is composed of different peoples, cultures, and places coming together in the confines of a sea basin. How do students in East Asia understand the variety of components that form Mediterranean connections, regionalisms, and disconnections? How do they make sense of these elements and phenomena in relation to their own personal experiences as well as more familiar socio-political contexts? This presentation examines these and other questions in order to discuss teaching and learning about the sea basin in East Asian countries.\nTo explore these issues, we offer a joint presentation based on experiences at Busan University of Foreign Studies (South Korea) and National Taiwan University (Taiwan). Examples from teaching at these institutions, as well as preliminary surveys sampling the viewpoints of our students, help bring forth diverse points of view on Mediterranean studies. Disciplinary specializations in film studies (Park) and history (Liang) also add a variety of content, geography, methodology, and chronology to the discussion. Park\u2019s courses include \u201cIntroduction to Mediterranean Cinema\u201d that brings French, Italian, Spanish, Greek, Turkish, Algerian, Iranian and Kurdish films rarely seen in South Korean theatres to her students. Liang teaches history including \u201cIntroduction to the Middle East\u201d and \u201cSpanish Empire 1300-1600\u201d and is the first permanent faculty member to teach this field at his university. Presented as a dialogue, we seek to initiate a dynamic discussion that welcomes the audience to share their experiences teaching Mediterranean studies in Asia and elsewhere in the world.\nThe Mediterranean is looming ever larger in East Asian perspectives. South Korea, Taiwan, and Japan maintain longstanding economic and political ties with the Mediterranean; China is implementing a \u201cOne Belt, One Road\u201d policy. Conflicts, violence, and hopes in the sea basin dominate the news. Italian, French, Turkish, and other Mediterranean cultures exert an alluring pull on imaginations. Reflecting these trends, the Asian Federation of Mediterranean Studies Institutes (AFOMEDI) was established in 2016 to advance the study of this region. As members of the founding council of AFOMEDI, Park and Liang\u2019s joint presentation represents the international cooperation that is helping develop knowledge of this region in East Asia.",

        "raw_content": "Everybody belongs somewhere.\nBlue Like Jazz (on Blu-Ray\u2122 August 7th) is a film based on the New York Times bestseller by Donald Miller. Just as in the book, the film focuses on a young man\u2019s tale of stepping out of his comfort zone to embark on a journey of discovering where he stands on religion. The film may not be for everyone, although it is a thought-provoking portrait of life, acceptance, and viewpoints that people maybe at different times, may hold themselves to.\nTrue Blood\u2018s Marshall Allman stars as Donald Miller, a 19-year-old college student in Texas who was raised as a Southern Baptist. Donald regularly attends church and is the leader of a youth group; a model child for his religious mother (Jenny Littleton). His father\u2013known as The Hobo\u2013(Eric Lange) encourages him to go to Reed College in Portland, a liberal arts school where Christianity isn\u2019t seen in a favorable light by the student body. After finding out that his mother is cheating on his father with Kenny, the church pastor (Jason Marsden), he is motivated further to flee to Oregon to adapt in his new surroundings. At his new University, he meets an array of different people and situations that challenge his beliefs and cause him to examine his identity.\nA journey of self discovery.\nReed College is a beautiful campus and was the perfect choice as the setting of the film. The party scenes and the soundtrack were major highlights, aside from the location, and the characters were likeable. In particular, \u201cThe Pope\u201d (Justin Welborn). Blue Like Jazz isn\u2019t, unlike many mainstream film. The movie doesn\u2019t strictly promote a belief system; it is plain to see that belief, guidance, and influence leads the audience to observe belief differences (atheism and conservative Christianity), allowing viewers to come to their own conclusions by valuing and respecting the opinions of others. Blue Like Jazz is a blend of many important and philosophical aspects of life, which are referenced and molded together, facilitating respected differences in perspectives.\nIf you get a chance to check out the Blu-Ray\u2122 special features, you can really tell that the cast had a really great time filming. It is always nice to see that behind all the bright lights and takes, being onset is a relaxed atmosphere. The featurettes included are just hilarious including featuring several people who embraced the Blue Like Jazz novel as their story. The Animator featurette is the strangest of the bunch, with a child wearing unusual clown makeup reciting a passage about animator Jonathan Richter. The special features contain as much uniqueness as the film itself.\nA heartfelt film about faith arrives on Blu-ray, DVD, and On Demand August 7th 2012.\nBlue Like Jazz Blu-Ray\u2122 edition is presented in outstanding quality with 1080P High Definition 16\u00d79 Widescreen (1.78: 1). The film will show beautifully on any television with no discoloration. The audio is astoundingly clear in 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio specifications\u2013no need to worry about missing dialogue. Subtitles are available in English, English SDH, and Spanish.\nBlu-Ray\u2122 & DVD Special Features Include\nAudio commentary with author/cowriter Donald Miller, Cinematographer Ben Pearson and cowriter/director Steve Taylor\nMaking Blue Like Jazz\nMaster Class: Directing Actors on Set\n\u201cSave Blue Like Jazz\u201d Featurette\n\u201cThe Cast\u201d Featurette\n\u201cThe Animator\u201d Featurette\n\u201cThis is My Story\u201d Featurette\n\u201cThe Music\u201d Featurette\nSource: Lionsgate Home Entertainment\nDon, a pious 19-year old, who uproots himself from his Southern Baptist upbringing and ventures to Portland where one new experience after another teaches him the true meaning of life.\nPrevious PostFEAST OF THE FOOLISH (2011) \u2013 Review\nNext PostBULLHEAD (2011) \u2013 Review",

They just don\u2019t know it yet.\nGOON (2012) \u2013 I enjoy coming across films I think may be crap, and, to my pleasant surprise, have them turn out to be treasured films you would not hesitate to put in the DVD or Blu-ray player, and watch just to get your spirits up. I\u2019m no hockey fan, but this film co-written by Jay Baruchel and Evan Goldberg (Superbad, Pineapple Express), is almost all about it\u2013with a meld of personal development in-between\u2013and I enjoyed it. The film is based on the book Goon: The True Story of an Unlikely Journey into Minor League Hockey, written by Adam Frattasio and Doug Smith. The book chronicles the true events of how Doug Smith, who always dreamed of playing hockey, quickly rose through the ranks of minor league hockey. Mainly because he could efficiently kick ass.\nThe story centers around a bouncer, Doug Glatt (Seann William Scott) who, despite his profession, is an extremely modest and mild-mannered guy, who only wants to prove to his mother and father (Eugene Levy) that he can be someone worthy of them. His brother (David Paetkau) is a doctor, and his parents are always going on about his achievements. But the allure of the film doesn\u2019t only center around his familiar relationship, but a sort of imaginative \u2018rags to riches\u2019 tale of self discovery\u2013and smashing heads.\nHis obnoxious number one friend and fan, Pat (Jay Baruchel), who hosts the public access television show Hot Ice, covers the fisticuffs hockey players seem to unavoidably get themselves into. One night, they both attend a game and Pat antagonizes the already tempered players. When one of them angrily climb the stands to get at him, Doug steps in and knocks the guy out. Right there: fast, effective, and brutal. Of course, Pat was filming the whole thing and turned it into the feature of his next show. At the same time, talent scouts who witness the event invite Doug to try out for a team and almost immediately, he is playing professional hockey\u2013but he has to learn how to skate on the ice.\nDoug meets his team of misfits and the star of the team Xavier (Marc-Andre Grondin) who suffered a severe concussion during his career and has, since then, given the team piss-poor performances to avoid injuries. At first, the two have conflicting interests and unite towards the end as the realization of a common enemy\u2013Ross Rhea (Liev Schreiber), an equally brutal thug of the hockey world and the man who put Xavier in a coma, and Doug\u2019s life-long hero\u2013shows himself. Ross is at the end of his career and he wants to go out with a bang\u2013one fight that would define his career\u2013Doug is the man that would give him this satisfaction. Will Doug eventually meet Ross on the ice? Of course he will; however, it is the events that lead him there that are worth noting\u2013but not worth spoiling.\nNevertheless, aside from my sheepish manners in film etiquette, Goon is an amazing film and it is good to see Seann William Scott as something other than the mindless, skirt chasing Stiffler in the American Pie series or the clueless side-kick in the film Dude, Where\u2019s My Car. He gave an impressive performance and even though his character wasn\u2019t up there on the intelligence spectrum, he was still able to gift an emotionally addictive persona. Goon has, perhaps, opened a door for Scott to branch out into more diverse roles.\nSports films aren\u2019t usually my thing, but I am all over and into this film. It is a definitive form of entertainment, and a film that you should not pass up\u2013especially if you have the stomach for it.\n(NSFW) Meet Doug. The nicest guy you\u2019ll ever fight. (NSFW)\nLabeled an outcast by his brainy family, a bouncer overcomes long odds to lead a team of under performing misfits to semi-pro hockey glory, beating the crap out of everything that stands in his way. - IMDb\nPosted in Movie ReviewsTagged DVD Review, movie review\nPrevious PostGame of Thrones \u2018Blackwater\u2019 \u2013 Review\nNext PostNEW TRAILER: DAWNGUARD \u2013 Skyrim\u2019s First DLC",

There is a coming avalanche of big data, with new fifth generation aircraft collecting intel, along with the development of new space assets, and a better understanding of cyber war. \u201cNot everyone understands the absolute crush of data that is heading our way with the new system of systems,\u201d Jamieson said during a Thursday Mitchell Institute for Aerospace Studies event. The Air Force needs help from industry and academia to understand the use of the combat cloud and open architecture systems, advances in electro-magnetic spectrum, and how to interoperate with coalition partners. \u201cWe have learned and matured in our thought and in our experience in fighting for the past 15 years. We\u2019ve got to share this and we\u2019ve got to have an open dialogue,\u201d she said. ACC has started working with academia to develop a mathematical algorithm \u201cto predict and depict the effects of cyber weapons.\u201d RAND Corp also has completed a one-year study evaluating six cases, four of traditional cyber attacks and two of electronic warfare attacks. \u201cWe believe we have the start of an algorithm that will actually be able to look at being able to predict the effects of cyber capabilities,\u201d Jamieson said. The ability to evolve will be integral. By 2030, competitors will have technological advances beyond the capabilities of the US, but the US military will not lose its technological edge because of its ability to \u201ccreatively com\u200be up with a way to out think,\u201d she added.",

And, if we are to be singing psalms, hymns and spiritual songs, should we be singing at least one from each category at each worship service?\nI take \u2018psalm\u2019 to be the common usage in the scripture, that is, one of the 150 psalms set to music. Ed Fudge published a song book several years ago where he set quite a few psalms to common tunes.\nA hymn is a song praising God. A spiritual song is a song with a religious message that strengthens the inward man.\nMost of the modern controversy over instrumental music centers around the word \u2018psalm\u2019. The ancient psalms were sung and often accompanied by instruments of music (see Ps 150). Because the NT uses \u2018psalms\u2019, many have seen this as a license to introduce instruments of music. However, God specifies \u201cspeaking to one another\u201d by psalms (Eph 5:19), and organs do not speak. He also specifies that psalms are to be sung (Jas 5:13). When God specifies, He excludes all else. God\u2019s specification of singing excludes playing.",

Bliss. #furbabies #aucklandanniversaryweekend #onemoredayoff\nA photo posted by arthur_amerinz (@arthur_amerinz) on Jan 29, 2017 at 12:47am PST\nIt\u2019s Auckland Anniversary Weekend\u2014a holiday weekend in the upper North Island\u2014and that made today, the halfway point, a quiet day. Tomorrow will busy with some projects around the house to be completed, but today was mostly about relaxing. Bella agreed.\nThis evening I sat on the sofa to read a bit, with Jake on one side, Sunny on the other, and then Bella decided to jump on me for a snooze. I snapped a photo of her (above), while she drifted off to sleep, purring away. It was nice.\nSuch quiet, undemanding times are perfect for a holiday weekend, the middle of one in particular. Tomorrow will probably be busier, weather permitting, but I bet there will still be a sleeping cat on my lap at some point or other. That would make tomorrow perfect, too.\nLabels: AmeriNZ, Auckland, Bella, Furbabies, Instagram, Jake, Life in NZ, Sunny\nWhat the hell is wrong with the Democratic Party? They totally underestimated Don, and the Orange Menace became the titular president. The majority of Americans did NOT vote for Don, and, perhaps most importantly, the positions of Democrats are supported by the majority of Americans. Then why the hell are Democrats being such weak cowards?\nAs the video above from Ezra Klein of Vox points out, Don has no intention of being anything other than a radical president pandering to the minority who voted for him. He hasn\u2019t reached out to Democrats, he has done absolutely nothing to calm the fear\u2014terror, even\u2014of those who voted against him or who oppose his politics.\nSo, why aren\u2019t Democrats capitalising on that? Sen. Cory Booker took the highly unusual step of testifying against the fellow US Senator nominated for a presidential cabinet position, the Republican junior senator from Alabama, Jefferson Beauregard \"Jeff\" Sessions III. Apart from that\u2014which was criticised by folks in the Democratic Party establishment\u2014there has been mostly silence and surrender from Democrats.\nSen. Elizabeth Warren not only voted to confirm the wildly and spectacularly unqualified Ben \u201cMumbles\u201d Carson, she actually defended her vote. She said, in essence, that had she not, Don would have named someone even worse, and perhaps that\u2019s true. But why is half as bad a \"good\" thing?\nIt\u2019s true that Carson was not the biggest or most important battle\u2014there are so many \u201cbigger fish\u201d to defeat. And it\u2019s also true that some Democrats, like Sen. Al Franken, Rep. John Lewis, and Rep. Luis Guti\u00e9rtez, among others, are holding nominees\u2019 feet to the fire and fighting back. But there\u2019s no counter narrative, there\u2019s not even an attempt to get the message out that the Democrats represent the positions of the majority of Americans, and that Don emphatically does not.\nThis reminds me of the worst years of the Bush/Cheney regime, that time immediately after 9/11, when Democrats\u2014again, with a few exceptions\u2014decided they would stay silent. Theirs, like Warren\u2019s, was a politically-motivated decision, aimed mostly at preserving their position or, perhaps like Warren, to keep their powder dry for other battles.\nBut this is not like anything we\u2019ve ever seen before. The old rules are gone, a new reality is in place, and Democrats need to wake up to what is happening. They need to oppose Don and the Republican gang whenever they try to ram through things to advance the interests of the minority they represent.\nIn the highly unlikely event that Don and his gang ever do anything mainstream, then Democrats should absolutely work with him\u2014not that he\u2019ll ever do anything of the kind, of course.\nAnd therein is a strategy that even Establishment Democrats can embrace: Call Don\u2019s bluffs. Repeatedly, and with vigour. Force him to act for ALL Americans or, as will always be the case and he acts only for his minority, the difference will be stark and obvious to mainstream Americans.\nThis has already started to happen a little bit. Sen. Chuck Schumer, the Democratic Leader in the US Senate, is proposing a $1 trillion infrastructure plan. In the campaign, Don talked about infrastructure and said he\u2019d fix things. Instead, the tax incentives he\u2019s proposed will only help the oligarchs and plutocrats get richer and provide little or no actual improvement. The plan from the Democrats, on the other hand, will actually repair vital but crumbling infrastructure.\nBut I don\u2019t hold out hope that Democrats will suddenly become the fierce warriors I think they should be\u2014maybe after the 2018 midterms, if a new generation of tougher Democrats are elected and pushes the old guard to the side. But, in the meantime, the party\u2019s leaders have shown no inclination to fight Don\u2019s agenda. Hell, the party can\u2019t even be bothered to hurry up and name a leader of the Democratic National Committee, so the party has no leaders outside of Congress, either.\nDemocrats, regardless of whether they call Don\u2019s bluffs or fight him, probably can\u2019t force him to work on behalf of all Americans. But they might just manage to make it clear that Don will only pander to the minority who voted for him, and that he only cares about the oligarchs and plutocrats like himself.\nTimes have changed. It\u2019s about time Democrats realised that\u2014they need to fight.\nStopped for a snack while picking up stuff today, and saw this on a food court table. Perfect place for it. #auckland #northshoreaucklandnz #kaipatiki\nThe photo above is of a tabletop in the foodcourt at Glenfield Mall, here on Auckland\u2019s North Shore. All the tables have ads for one thing or another\u2014shops, products, cellphone companies, fast food, and this one (among others). It\u2019s seen by a captive audience, but it offers something useful, and I think it\u2019s a really good thing.\nThe ad is from the Kaip\u0101tiki Community Facilities Trust (KCFT) promoting Youth Hub, \u201ca free online platform to empower young people and to bridge the gap between education and employment\u201d. It\u2019s supported by KCFT as part of their Jobs4Youth programme, part of what KCFT does to help the community grow and do well.\nYouth unemployment is a problem in many countries, including New Zealand. According to Statistics New Zealand, the country\u2019s overall unemployment rate in the September Quarter, the most recent available, was 4.9%. But in the same quarter, the unemployment rate for 15-19 year olds was 19.7%. Now, one might correctly point out that most of that age group would be in school, but for 20-24 year olds, it was 9.2%\u2014more than double the national rate. Most of them would not be in study. And, for those 25-29 the unemployment rate was still 6.2%. Clearly there is much work to do.\nEthnicity is a factor, too, as it is in most developed countries: The overall unemployment rate for people of European ancestry was 3.6%, while for M\u0101ori it was 10.6% and for Pacific Peoples it was 10.1%. M\u0101ori and Pacific youth similarly have higher unemployment rates than European youth do.\nThere are a lot of reasons for this, including New Zealand\u2019s slow recovery form the Global Financial Crisis and also a government led by the right of centre National Party that doesn\u2019t worry about workers\u2019 needs and led by a Prime Minister who as Finance Minister said some years ago that low wages in New Zealand was \u201ca way of competing\u201d. Against that mindset, it seems unlikely that much of anything can improve without a change of government later this year.\nBut is there anything to be done, regardless? Yes: Community and charitable organisations and local government are working to fill the void left by an inattentive central government. This is a very good thing, though without a broader national strategy involving education, healthcare, and the business sector, it\u2019s unlikely there can be any nationwide improvement.\nMeanwhile, here in Kaip\u0101tiki, at least, there's a greater attention to the needs of youth than is found in other parts of Auckland, and Auckland is more focused on the issues than many other areas of the country. It\u2019s a good start\u2014which is exactly what our youth really need.\nLabels: Auckland, Instagram, Life in NZ, New Zealand, North Shore, NZ Politics\nA new AmeriNZ Podcast episode, \u201cAmeriNZ 327 \u2013 Flipside\u201d is now available from the podcast website. There, you can listen, download or subscribe to the podcast.\nLabels: AmeriNZ Podcast, Announcement, Auckland, Life in NZ, NZ News, NZ Politics, podcasts, Weather\nRobert Reich, Secretary of Labor in the Clinton administration and now Professor of Public Policy at University of California at Berkeley, posted this today on his Facebook Page:\nSome of Trump\u2019s lies are more dangerous than others. Today, White House press secretary Sean Spicer reiterated that Trump believes millions of undocumented immigrants voted in the presidential election. Trump has \u201cstated his concern of voter fraud and people voting illegally during the campaign and continues to maintain that belief based on studies and evidence people have brought to him.\" Pressed for evidence, Spicer said Trump\u2019s view is \u201cbased on studies and information he has.\"\nBut there are no such studies or evidence.\nTrump repeated the same allegation of massive voter fraud yesterday at a meeting with Congressional leaders.\nThis particular lie is especially dangerous because it plants in the public\u2019s mind a concern about voter fraud, which he and Republicans will use to legitimize more draconian voter ID requirements, more demands that foreign-born citizens prove their citizenship before voting, and more procedural limits on voting \u2013 all designed to suppress the votes of likely Democratic voters in 2018 and beyond.\nThe media must fight back, demanding evidence. Democratic leaders who happen to be in Trump\u2019s presence when he makes this claim must dispute them. We all have an obligation to spread the truth.\nI completely agree with Robert Reich about this. It seems to me that what Don is trying to do is, first, assert his legitimacy. This has to do with his massive ego, because as someone with severe narcissistic personality disorder, he simply cannot tolerate any negative views of him or evidence that he\u2019s not \u201cthe best\u201d. The fact that Don lost the popular votes by nearly 3 million upsets him, so he lies about it in order to feel better about himself and to restore his delusional self-belief in his own perfection and superiority.\nThe second reason he does this is more sinister: He\u2019s trying to undermine and delegitimise democracy itself. Throughout the campaign, he made constant and repeated incendiary and false statements about election \u201cfraud\u201d, declaring the election was \u201crigged\u201d. Observers took that to mean he expected to lose, and so, was setting the state for his next self-promotion campaign post-election.\nI think the reason he lied back then, and the reason he\u2019s lying now, is to weaken people\u2019s faith in democracy. Also, his constant lies about things we all know and can easily check are about undermining people\u2019s faith in newsmedia and even facts themselves. In so doing, facts become what he says they are, truth is what he declares it to be, and democracy is what promotes him and the interests of the oligarchs and plutocrats, and anything that stands in the way is anti-democracy.\nDon and his gang are setting the stage for authoritarian rule, where they control everything, including people\u2019s memories and beliefs. He wants people to truly love Big Brother*, and the only way to do that is to delegitimise democracy and everything that makes it possible.\nHis lie about the election is stupid for being so utterly, completely and demonstrably false, but that doesn\u2019t matter to him. His goal isn\u2019t to be believed, it\u2019s to become loved like Big Brother. The real question is, will the Republican Party let him get away with it?\nIt\u2019s become evident that George Orwell\u2019s Nineteen Eighty-Four will become a constant reference point for however long Don is in office.\nToday is the anniversary of our civil union. You could say we had our wedding in 2009, but weren\u2019t actually married until 2013. That delay wasn\u2019t because of bureaucracy, but because of government: We had to wait for politicians to make marriage a reality for us, too.\nWe were married only a couple months after marriage equality became law. On the other hand, we\u2019d waited several years before getting a civil union. Since our marriage, the anniversary of our civil union has become kind of neglected. We don\u2019t do anything special for it (unless you count my annual blog post) because we pay more attention to the anniversary of when we were married. Maybe that was inevitable.\nBut I mark the occasion every year, and for a whole lot of reasons. It was a special day, one well worth remembering for its own sake. And, besides, it was one of the hottest days we\u2019d ever had\u2014who could forget THAT?! We all still talk about that, and we remember.\nThis date eight years ago was very special at the time. To me, the fact we were later married doesn\u2019t change the importance of our civil union, it reinforces it precisely because it built on that day and the memories we made. It all just kind of flows.\nAnd so, I\u2019ll keep remembering it because it mattered, and still does.\nThis now concludes the 2016-17 \u201cSeason of Anniversaries\u201d. The blog now resumes normal content provision.\n2013: Fourth Anniversary\n2014: An anniversary\n2015: Anniversaries\n2016: A seventh Anniversary\nLabels: AmeriNZ, Gay Rights, LGBT, Marriage Equality, NZ Marriage Equality, Personal History\nWalked outside to get rid of a weed & saw this little fella on the deck, just hanging out. I know a LOT of people who have these tiny visitors, but I haven't seen one around here before. \ud83d\ude00 #lifeinnz #auckland #aucklandnorthshore #northshoreaucklandnz\nThe Instagram photo above is of a small visitor to our deck: A skink. New Zealand only has two kinds of lizards, geckos and skinks, so it\u2019s not that surprising that I hadn\u2019t seen one before. So, it was special and kind of fun.\nNew Zealand has several native species of skinks, and an introduced species from Australia called the \"Plague Skink\". I wasn\u2019t able to work out which species visited us, and it may even have been a juvenile, which would have made it harder to identify. I don\u2019t know enough about reptiles to even hazard a guess, let alone identify the visitor correctly.\nI\u2019m glad that New Zealand\u2019s reptile population does NOT include snakes\u2014I hate snakes. But it would be nice if the skinks visited every now and then. But, then, clearly there\u2019s a first time for everything.\nLabels: AmeriNZ, Auckland Views, Instagram, North Shore, NZ Views\nIt\u2019s not uncommon for plans to be interrupted\u2014derailed, even\u2014nor for things to pop up unexpectedly. Sometimes, something we think we\u2019ve taken care of reappears and is responsible, in part, for the derailment. Over the past week I\u2019ve experienced all that.\nIt began, really, last week when a guy I\u2019d hired to clear our section, as wells as wash the house and deck, started working on the project. I\u2019d started work on it and realised it was too big for me, having been neglected for a couple years due to my undiagnosed health problems. Even at the end of the first day, when I saw the enormous pile of overgrown vegetation he\u2019d removed, I knew I\u2019d made the right call in hiring someone.\nHowever, the weather turned later in the week, which made getting up on the roof to wash it (and remove the moss and lichens growing on it) was too dangerous. So, he did the best he could at ground level, but even that reached its limit.\nSo, we began this week a bit behind, especially because the weather yesterday continued bad. All the wetness meant I couldn\u2019t re-paint the low retaining walls in our front garden, and I couldn\u2019t re-stain the deck.\nThe weather wasn\u2019t the only unpredictable problem, I also had a very unexpected one: I got a gout attack.\nBack in November, I started taking allopurinol to prevent gout attacks. As is always the case, I began with the lowest possible dose, and for the most part it\u2019s been effective: Any minor twinges I felt were gone the next day or after popping a couple paracetamol. So, an actual attack came as a surprise.\nIt began on Thursday in my right foot, then in the other, sort of at the same time as the first one, which was waning. Then, Saturday it became a full-on attack in my left foot. It was so bad Sunday night that I barely slept. ANY pressure on my foot, even a lightweight blanket, sent me spasms of pain, something that I don\u2019t think has happened to me since my very first attack 15 years ago.\nYesterday, I doubled my intake of cherry pills, just as I did months ago to end my attacks so I could go on the allopurinol. As a result (or, not\u2026 my experience is not proof, as I discussed last month), the attack is finally receding. I was able to wear shoes today for the first time since Friday. At this rate, it\u2019ll be over in a day or two.\nAll that has put this project behind schedule\u2014not dramatically, just behind. But it also affected even blogging because I felt miserable and couldn\u2019t really concentrate\u2014and I DID try! Now, maybe things will return to normal.\nWhatever happens with my affliction or the weather, my current project will get done at some point. And, some future project will also be interrupted unexpectedly. It\u2019s just the way things are.\nBut I could certainly do without another gout attack.\nLabels: AmeriNZ, Health and Medicine, Health Journey, Life in NZ, Weather\nObligatory birthday selfie. Very windy today, mostly cloudy, but gosh I feel calm & sunny for my birthday! \ud83d\ude02 #birthdayboy #lifeinnz #auckland #older\nWhat on earth is a birthday but a legitimate opportunity for a selfie?! Yesterday I posted a selfie of me on my last day at 57, and today I repeat the favour (above) on my first day at 58. This should become an annual tradition. Clearly.\nMy birthday celebrations actually began yesterday when our niece and her fianc\u00e9 joined us for a pizza dinner last night. They gave me a sampling of American treats (below). I won\u2019t have them all at the same time, of course, and haven\u2019t had any yet, actually. But, I will.\nTonight, my sister-in-law and her partner joined us for a BBQ dinner. Even after 20+ years in New Zealand, a BBQ in January is still quite exotic. It was yummy, even though I had to defend my affinity for A1 Steak Sauce. For the record, I declared no defence was necessary, that I was right regardless of what others might think. Birthday Boy prerogative.\nAnd that was my wonderfully low-key birthday celebration. After a significant year, this was a very welcome thing.\nToday has been an awesome day, really.\nSome American snacks for my birthday given to me by our lovely niece and her fianc\u00e9 (nephew in a few short weeks...). In case you're wondering, collectively they add up to 840 calories, which is about 3515 kilojoules (which is why I prefer to measure calories- it doesn't sound as bad!) these will NOT be consumed in one sitting! \ud83d\ude01 #birthdayboy #lifeinnz #family #expatlife\nLabels: AmeriNZ, Expat / Expatriate, Food, Instagram, Life in NZ\nToday is my \"birthday eve\", so a selfie was needed on the last day I'm this age. I'm wearing one of the non-baseball baseball caps I bought recently. Better than most, but it reminds me why I don't wear them... #sunsafe #birthdayeve #auckland #aucklandnorthshore\nToday is my \u201cbirthday eve\u201d, the day before my birthday. So, I decided to take a selfie, as one does, to commemorate the last day I\u2019m at this age. Because, well, I could.\nI\u2019d gone outside to sweep up some leaves that had fallen on the deck (damn olive trees\u2026), and realised that my previous such selfie was taken under similar circumstances\u2014exactly a month ago. This time, I was wearing a baseball-style cap, something I don\u2019t do because I don\u2019t like how I look in them. I bought this cap the same time as the other hat I photographed myself in (along with several other caps) with the idea I should just make myself get used to them because any hat is better than no hat. And, for what it\u2019s worth, I was outside for maybe 15 minutes, since the deck is mostly clean.\nAt the time I was doing all this, it was 24 at our house (75.2F), and quite possibly not the high of the day. But it was warm enough after such a cool, even cold, summer.\nI mentioned that in my latest AmeriNZ Podcast, which I recorded right after I shared the above photo on Instagram. After that, I carried on with my Friday chores, before later editing the podcast and posting it.\nThis evening we had Sal\u2019s Pizza with our niece and her fianc\u00e9, since they have other plans for dinner tomorrow. So, I get both pizza and a BBQ for my birthday, so I definitely win.\nAnd if my Birthday Eve is this good, the actual day is bound to be even better!\nLabels: AmeriNZ, Instagram, Life in NZ\nIn a few hours, the Orange Menace will assume the title of US President. While that will be illegitimate for a whole lot of reasons, the issue isn\u2019t that event itself but, rather, what happens later. There are things that are known, many that are likely, and a few more that can be guessed. So, let\u2019s make some predictions.\nDon will raise his tiny hand to repeat the oath (the other hand, no doubt, behind his back, with his fingers crossed\u2026) and will do so with historically low approval ratings. My first prediction is that he\u2019s likely to get a post-inauguration \u201cbounce\u201d in the polls, but that will end up being his high point, as his rating fall, probably to never before seen depths of disapproval.\nWe know this because more people voted against him than voted for him, so he starts out with a very high percentage of Americans suspicious of him. He also will go back on his campaign promises every single day, and it\u2019s inevitable that the people he suckered into voting for him will turn on him. So, he only has falling poll ratings to look forward to.\nAssisting in creating his historic levels of disapproval will be the controversies that will dog him from the second the Chief Justice congratulates him. He will be instantly impeachable for his many conflicts of interest and his income from foreign sources, and there\u2019s no reason to believe he won\u2019t try to take advantage of his position to make himself richer. That\u2019s corruption.\nMoreover, there are continuing questions about the extent to which he and his campaign colluded (or possibly conspired) with the Russian Government to subvert American democracy to win an election he otherwise couldn\u2019t. If he did collude with Putin, that\u2019s treason.\nBecause of all of this, my next major prediction is that Don will resign within 18 months. That\u2019s because with poll ratings falling dramatically, Republicans will want him out in order to try and keep control of the US Congress. They\u2019ll also want their real choice, Mike Pence, to have more than two years to bed in before the next presidential election.\nSo, Don will use a typical failure\u2019s excuse and say something about how he wants to spend more time with his family or something like that, and quit. If he doesn\u2019t quit, Republicans will impeach him and remove him from office in the interest of self-preservation.\nIf Don quits or is removed from office, Pence will become president\u2014it is the only way he could ever get to that office, due to his extreme far-right radicalism, much of which was devoted to turning the USA into a fundamentalist Christian theocracy.\nHowever, if Don is undone by collusion with the Russians, then Pence will be, too, and both will have to resign or be impeached. In that case, the Speaker of the House, Paul Ryan, will become president. If that happens, millions of Americans of all political stripes will breathe a sigh of relief, because while Ryan has his own radical ideas, he\u2019s also a pragmatist and wouldn\u2019t be a \u201cdamn the torpedoes\u201d sort of radical president like Pence would be.\nThe reality is that if Pence becomes president because Don quits, and especially if it\u2019s because he was removed from office, then he will be a mere caretaker, doing the titular duties until a real president can be elected in 2020. Don would be so unpopular upon exiting that it would be nearly impossible for Pence to be able to win election in his own right. That means that Republicans in Congress are unlikely to help Pence pursue his radical agenda, preferring to be seen as opposing him.\nThe bottom line is that Don won\u2019t make it to the midterm elections because he\u2019ll do too much harm to the Republican Party for them to risk it.\nHowever, there\u2019s also the real possibility that health will remove Don from office. The issue here is actuarial tables, that a man of his age can be expected to have health problems. One of those health problems could be severe enough to force him to step down. Or, he could just claim that\u2019s what it is.\nWhatever the cause of his exit, I still predict that Don will be gone within 18 months, 20 at most. If he hangs on beyond that, then Republicans can kiss goodbye to one or both houses of Congress. If he lasts past the midterms, whoever the Republican candidate is in 2020 will lose in a landslide, and Democrats will gain a massive majority in both houses of Congress.\nDon is unique in US history, not just for being the most unqualified person ever to be sworn in, but also for being an illegitimate president who should not be sworn in (but will be anyway). As his poll ratings nosedive, Republicans will distance themselves from him, then throw him under the bus, and no amount of late night belligerent Tweets can save him. And that\u2019s a very, very good thing.\nA new AmeriNZ Podcast episode, \u201cAmeriNZ 326 \u2013 Summertime\u201d is now available from the podcast website. There, you can listen, download or subscribe to the podcast.\nThis is just a short episode to ease into the new year, a bit of a catch up to start things out.\nLabels: AmeriNZ, AmeriNZ Podcast, Announcement, Life in NZ, New Zealand\nToday is January 20, a date that has no particular significance for New Zealand, but one that does for the USA\u2014tomorrow, when it arrives there. What is an American expat in New Zealand to make of all this? Ultimately, that\u2019s down to individual choice, timezones having a lot to do with it.\nThe US President is sworn in at noon on January 20 following the November elections (following ratification of the 20th Amendment to the US Constitution). That falls at 6am January 21 in New Zealand, and isn't exactly a convenient time to watch the hoopla if we\u2019re so inclined. On weekdays, it often falls when we\u2019re getting ready for work, and when it falls on a weekend\u2014well, many of us prefer to sleep later.\nFor me, of course, there\u2019s the fact that, due to those timezones, January 20 in the USA is January 21 here, and that\u2019s my birthday. So, that\u2019s what I always focus on\u2014not the events in the USA. In fact, in the 20+ years I\u2019ve lived in New Zealand, I know for sure that I watched the inauguration in 2009 (I also know that I didn\u2019t watch it live in 2013), thanks to this blog. So, the fact I won\u2019t be watching the hoopla on Saturday (our time\u2026) doesn\u2019t actually mean anything: I usually don\u2019t watch.\nThere are many people who have chosen to avoid watching, and if there was a choice to make, I wouldn\u2019t either, on principle. The events happen whether anyone watches or not, and if we choose to ignore the events it changes nothing. But it is a small way we can stand by out principles if we so choose.\nI have absolutely no problem with anyone refusing to watch, and that applies to all presidents in all years, regardless of a person\u2019s ideology, motivation for not watching, etc. Watching or not really is a matter of individual choice, and people have to have that right without being harangued for the choice they made.\nEven though people have the right to make their choices, that doesn\u2019t mean that the choice won\u2019t be mocked. The other side avoided President Obama\u2019s inaugurations, and were derided for it. Now, the other side will return the favour and deride any of us who boycott Don\u2019s show. And so it goes\u2014always.\nI decided to exploit use the hoopla tomorrow as a way to promote New Zealand wine, books, films, and music. That \u201ctongue-firmly-in-cheek post\u201d offered to \u201cshare\u201d my birthday celebrations by providing distractions that people avoiding the show in DC might want to try. It was all a bit of light-hearted fun at the (mild) expense of my fellow centre-left folks, while also promoting \u201csome of the things I love most about New Zealand\u201d. I doubt that anyone will take me up on my specific offer, but maybe someone, some time, might look into the things I mentioned. That\u2019d be nice.\nSo, I won\u2019t be watching the hoopla tomorrow, neither live nor later on. While I have zero interest in Don or his show, and I also reject both, that\u2019s not why I won't watch. I seldom ever watch it live, and for a very good reason: The timezones that put it at such an inconvenient time also place it on my birthday, and I want to focus on that. This year in particular fun and positive things matter a lot.\nAfter tomorrow, there\u2019ll be days I have to take what\u2019s happening in my homeland seriously, but tomorrow isn\u2019t one of those days, and it never is. It\u2019s my birthday tomorrow, and it\u2019s the only thing about the day that has any significance to me. You\u2019re still welcome to join in\u2014fun times always trump, so to speak, bad times.\nLabels: America, AmeriNZ, Expat / Expatriate, Life in NZ, US 2016 Elections, US Politics\nI\u2019m aware that many of my friends in the USA are determined to avoid the hoopla on January 20 USA time when Don\u2019s regime begins. Not everyone will be taking part in protests, and need something constructive to do. Toward that end, I\u2019m willing to share my birthday celebration.\nBecause of timezones, January 21 here\u2014my birthday\u2014is January 20 in the USA. That day I\u2019ll be focused entirely being the birthday boy, and far too busy to take any notice of what happens in Washington, DC. So, it occurred to me, why not share this as something for others to focus on?\nObviously, I\u2019m not seriously suggesting that everyone actually celebrate my birthday, however, everyone can still play along. Think of it as an \u201cExperience a Bit of Arthur\u2019s World Day\u201d. Here are some suggestions.\nDrink New Zealand wine. Any excuse is a good one for drinking New Zealand wine. Although, since the actual swearing in part will be at 6am NZ time, it may be a bit early for me, there\u2019s no reason others can\u2019t enjoy it\u2014especially since it may help one get through the day. New Zealand is particularly known for its sauvignon blanc and its pinot noir, but I also quite like New Zealand pinot gris (known as pinot grigio in other countries; although there is a difference between the two, and NZ pinot gris is mostly similar to pinot grigio), which is becoming popular and known overseas, too.\nRead a New Zealand author. There are so many to choose from\u2014far too many for me to list, but others have done so. Goodreads has a list of \u201cBooks By New Zealand Authors\u201d along with user ratings of the books, which may be useful. Or not. Wikipedia has a plain list of New Zealand authors, which is probably not that useful. To find out more about any particular author, the New Zealand Book Council offers what it describes as \u201cthe most comprehensive collection of information about New Zealand writers on the Internet\u201d, in searchable (and surprisingly frank) listings about New Zealand writers.\nSomething to watch. Okay, maybe reading New Zealand authors after having some New Zealand wine might be a bit difficult, so how about some New Zealand movies? NZ Onscreen has snippets about the \u201cTop 10 NZ Feature Films\u201d\u2014in their opinion, and, no, neither the Lord of the Rings nor Hobbit movies are on the list. The last three on this list are relatively recent, and Once Were Warriors is a brutal and honest film about life among urban M\u0101ori in the early 1990s. People still talk about\u2014and debate\u2014the film. But Whale Rider and Boy, which also cover the modern M\u0101ori experience, may be more, um, accessible. I\u2019d also add What We Do in the Shadows, a horror/comedy from the guys in Flight of the Conchords. It was directed by Taika Waititi, who directed Boy, and Jermaine Clement from Flight of the Conchords.\nSimilarly, IMDb has a listing of \u201cThe 20 Greatest New Zealand Films of all Time\u201d, though not all are actually New Zealand films\u2014they were made by New Zealanders or in New Zealand. Wikipedia has a long list of New Zealand films which also is made up of movies \u201cproduced or filmed in New Zealand\u201d, so it includes the Rings and Hobbit movies, among others.\nMaybe just listen. Okay, okay, after a few more glasses of a nice New Zealand wine, even a movie may be too challenging, so how about some NZ pop songs to listen to? The Australasian Performing Rights Association (APRA) has produced a list of what they say are the \u201cTop 100 New Zealand Songs of All Time\u201d. We actually own them on CDs of the artists, and also through CDs put out by APRA called Nature\u2019s Best. Interested in more recent music? How about the \u201cOfficial NZ Music Charts\u201d listing of the Top 20 NZ singles. Let\u2019s make it easy: You can even listen to the official chart on Spotify.\nThose are just a few things anyone can do to play along on my birthday, and also avoid the events in Washington, DC. It\u2019s a win/win, in other words. What can I say? I\u2019m a giver.\nFootnote: I really shouldn\u2019t need to say this, but, this is a tongue-firmly-in-cheek post. I\u2019m taking advantage of the convergence of my birthday and the hoopla happening at the same time in Washington, DC, which people really are looking to avoid, in order to promote some of the things I love most about New Zealand. And, who knows? Depending on how the next couple years go, some Americans may find the stuff in this post a sort of preparation for a move to New Zealand\u2026\nLabels: AmeriNZ, Book Talk, Life in NZ, Movies, Music, New Zealand, NZ Music, Pop Culture, US Politics\nLabels: 2Political Podcast, Announcement, Podcast, US 2016 Elections\nThe photo with this post probably looks familiar. Over the years, I\u2019ve shared many like it on this blog or through social media. But, I didn\u2019t take this photo, and I found it by accident. Yes, there\u2019s a story.\nYesterday I was checking Facebook, as one does, and among my notifications was one about a post to the Facebook Group for our local community. Nothing unusual in that, though I usually get the notifications about a day after the post was made, so I don\u2019t see them in a timely manner.\nSo I went to check out the post to the group to see what the replies were, and then I scrolled down the page, as I usually do, to see what else had been posted since the last time I\u2019d checked the group. A few scrolls down and I saw the photo. \u201cThat looks like Bella,\u201d I thought to myself, and I remembered several of my photos of her that look virtually identical, most of which haven\u2019t been shared.\nThen I read the post.\nThe person who posted it asked, \u201cDoes anyone know this cat?\u201d, and then added she\u2019d been visiting for a few days, and was worried that she had no home and was staying out all night. I sent a private message to the person who posted it after a little \u201cFacebook stalking\u201d confirmed what I suspected, that she was a neighbour. I went over and collected Bella, brought her home and fed her, and she went out again\u2014I assume back to their house.\nThis isn\u2019t unusual behaviour for Bella, and she often fixates on one area to sleep for a few days or so before moving on. At other times she\u2019d been in the common area out front, in front of a different neighbour\u2019s house, or somewhere on our section, among other places. It\u2019s a little unusual for her to stay away most of the day, as she has the past couple days, but certainly not unheard of.\nI\u2019m glad our neighbour cared enough about animals to ask if anyone in the area knew who Bella belonged to, and wanted to make sure she was looked after. The fact that she took to Facebook is a sign of the times, as is the fact that I saw it there. In fact, the only thing that\u2019s unusual is that had I not gone to the group to check out an unrelated post, I may never have seen it.\nWhat I haven\u2019t mentioned is that until yesterday I\u2019d never met the neighbours. They\u2019ve lived there for some time, and I\u2019ve caught glimpses of them, but never really even seen them. That meant there was never an opportunity to say hello and introduce myself, and these days no one goes out of their way to introduce themselves to their neighbours, anyway\u2014and they haven\u2019t for a very long time. So, even this aspect\u2014that we\u2019d never met the neighbours\u2014isn\u2019t in any way unusual.\nBut putting all that modernity aside, the important thing here is that people are as kind and decent as they\u2019ve always been, and they still want to look out for what are clearly other people\u2019s pets and to make sure they\u2019re well. Those are good things. Had we known each other, it wouldn't have unfolded the way it did, so the modern norm of not knowing one\u2019s neighbours was a problem. But another modern thing\u2014use of Facebook\u2014came through.\nSo, I\u2019m glad that our neighbours are kind and caring, and even that Facebook gave me a reason to introduce myself. Sometimes, our modern systems can fix other problems changing times have created. This was one of those times.\nMeanwhile, Bella probably went back over there today.\nThe very first photo of Bella that I shared on this blog back in 2010 was taken on our deck. Another photo I posted in 2012 was in a similar position to the neighbour\u2019s photo, and one from last year, while very different, as a similar pose. Apparently, this is standard for taking photos of her.\nLabels: Bella, Facebook, Furbabies, Internet Stuff, Life in NZ\nIn a surprise move, President Obama awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom to Vice President Joe Biden. It was a well-deserved honour, and I wholeheartedly approve. Joe is thoroughly decent fellow, and, it\u2019s pretty clear, has had an outstanding working partnership with President Obama.\nI met Joe Biden once, decades ago, as I wrote about back in 2008. Even then I saw how decent he was\u2014even though at that time we were in different parties.\nOver the years, I grew to admire Joe as a US Senator. He was tenacious in fighting the good fight, never giving up.\nAs Vice President, Joe Biden has been great. Able to speak more freely than President Obama could, he sometimes cleared the are and swept away the bullshit that tends to pile up in Washington, DC.\nSo, I think he deserved this honour, more than any other vice president of my lifetime. I\u2019m glad he was honoured in this way.\nLabels: America, Good News, US Politics, Video\nPresident Obama\u2019s Farewell Address to the American People\nAdapted from the description:\nPresident Obama delivered his farewell address to the American people, where he thanked his supporters, celebrated the ways we have changed this country for the better these past eight years, and offered his vision on where we all go from here.\nLabels: AmeriNZ, US Politics, Video\nToday US Secretary of State John Kerry issued a formal apology for the State Department\u2019s years of open discrimination and persecution of LGBT people:\nThroughout my career, including as Secretary of State, I have stood strongly in support of the LGBTI community, recognizing that respect for human rights must include respect for all individuals. LGBTI employees serve as proud members of the State Department and valued colleagues dedicated to the service of our country. For the past several years, the Department has pressed for the families of LGBTI officers to have the same protections overseas as families of other officers. In 2015, to further promote LGBTI rights throughout the world, I appointed the first ever Special Envoy for the Human Rights of LGBTI Persons.\nIn the past \u2013 as far back as the 1940s, but continuing for decades \u2013 the Department of State was among many public and private employers that discriminated against employees and job applicants on the basis of perceived sexual orientation, forcing some employees to resign or refusing to hire certain applicants in the first place. These actions were wrong then, just as they would be wrong today.\nOn behalf of the Department, I apologize to those who were impacted by the practices of the past and reaffirm the Department\u2019s steadfast commitment to diversity and inclusion for all our employees, including members of the LGBTI community.\nKerry is referring to what has been called the \u201cLavender Scare\u201d that was particularly evident in the 1950s and 1960s during which LGBT people were purged from the US Government. Much of this was done during the \u201cRed Scare\u201d purges, but it persisted longer.\nThis is merely the latest move in support of LGBT Americans by the Obama Administration, and the State Department specifically. It\u2019s a welcome thing in itself, and a nice gesture as the Obama Administration prepares to leave office.\nToday, too, Gallup released the results of a poll in which Americans assess progress under President Obama on a number of issues. On the \u201cSituation for gays and lesbians\u201d, 68% felt we made progress, 11% felt we stood still, and 16% felt we lost ground. Calling this \u201ca Clear Bright Spot\u201d, they commented:\nAmericans saw more progress on the situation for LGBT Americans than any other issue. Sixty-eight percent believe the situation for gays and lesbians improved under Obama, compared with 16% who say it lost ground. This likely reflects the shift toward majority approval of same-sex marriage during Obama's terms in office and the 2015 Supreme Court ruling that made same-sex marriage legal nationwide. [Link in the original]\nI think Gallup\u2019s assessment is correct, and a great many studies and polls now back up the assertion that acceptance in general for LGBT Americans has been growing, and also for marriage equality specifically.\nMy gut feeling\u2014and it\u2019s only that, because I know of no research to back this up\u2014is that the 11% who felt things had \u201cstood still\u201d are probably on the Leftward side of Left, and the 16% who felt things went backwards are among the hardcore anti-LGBT people on the Right. I say this because overall, the average percentage of hardcore anti-LGBT people is a minority even among the rightwing, so 16% sounds like a reasonable guess for those who think that the USA should be anti-LGBT\u2014to them, the USA has \u201clost ground\u201d and \u201cgone backward\u201d.\nSimilarly, I think the reason that 11% say progress \u201cstood still\u201d is because of their ideology. In my view, it\u2019s indisputable by any reasonable and rational measure that, overall, LGBT Americans have made progress. However, I can clearly see that there\u2019s obviously still much work to be done, more progress to be made. The difference is that my own ideology doesn\u2019t blind me to actual progress, while\u2014in my personal experience\u2014those on the Leftward side of Left take an \u201call or nothing\u201d approach, so, since 110% of the necessary progress hasn\u2019t been made, therefore, the USA has merely stood still. I quite obviously think that\u2019s silly.\nSecretary Kerry\u2019s apology is probably the last positive thing for LGBT people we\u2019ll see from the White House or federal departments for at least four years, given the open hostility to LGBT people by many of Don\u2019s incoming gang, and virtually the entire Republican caucus controlling the US Congress. Next year, and every year for at least four, if Gallup polls on the same question, they\u2019ll probably find a growing reversal of the \u201cMade Progress\u201d and \u201cLost Ground\u201d percentages until 2020, when they will have completely reversed. So far, there\u2019s been no absolutely reason for LGBT people to be optimistic about the next two, four, or more, years.\nFor now, though, this was a good and right thing to do.\nFor some background: Kerry apologizes for past LGBT discrimination at State Department \u2013 Politico\nUpdate: Gallup reported recently that \"In US, More Adults Identifying as LGBT\", which found that 10 million American adults identify as LGBT (4.1%), that LGBT millennials are up from 5.8% in 2012 to 7.3% in 2016, and that LGBT identification is higher among women.\nLabels: America, Gay Rights, History, LGBT, Marriage Equality, Polls, US 2016 Elections, US Politics, Worth Quoting\nIn the video above, Vox correctly points out that fake news is nothing new, and it even goes on to explain why it was able to become so big in 2016. However, I think it downplays the effects of fake news, even though doing so was in order to make a larger point. So, I think that the gist of what they\u2019re saying is important, but could have been better.\nIt\u2019s certainly true that fake news is not new, and it certainly wasn\u2019t the sole factor in Hillary Clinton\u2019s loss, but it was an important factor. This is because most people\u2014Right and Left\u2014didn\u2019t (and still don\u2019t) bother to check the veracity of facts in something they share if they agree with it\u2019s point. However, when you look at the chart that Vox shares in the video, it\u2019s clear that Don\u2019s fans were much more willing to share anti-Hillary Clinton fake news than Clinton supporters were willing to share fake news about Don. That led to a LOT of negative noise about Hillary that was based on nothing but lies. I think Vox glossed over that part too much.\nNevertheless, their talk about what was wrong with the US newsmedia, particularly its obsession with its false equivalency fetish, was good. The US newsmedia was absolutely useless in the 2016 US election, and so far they haven\u2019t improved very much.\nMaybe the US newsmedia is waiting for the Orange Menace to actually be in the White House before taking him on, maybe they never will. But there\u2019s plenty out there to tell them what they got wrong, and what they need to improve. This video is just one example of that.\nLabels: America, Internet Stuff, Media, US 2016 Elections, US Politics, Video\nThe video above is a song that encapsulates what Democrats\u2014and clearheaded Americans of any strip\u2014feel in the wake of the USA\u2019s election disaster. There\u2019s anger, sure, and disbelief, too, but also deep pain\u2014and abiding hope.\nThe video was made by This American Life, the award-winning public broadcasting series, for their episode 599. The video\u2019s YouTube description explains:\nThis American Life asked Sara Bareilles (Broadway\u2019s \u201cWaitress\u201d) to imagine what President Obama might be thinking about the current election and Donald Trump, but can\u2019t say publicly. Leslie Odom, Jr., performs the song.\nThe video was posted back in October, about a week and a half before the US elections, though I don\u2019t know when the song was actually written. I don\u2019t know what the polls were doing at that time the song was written, so maybe it just seems to presage what actually happened that Tuesday in November.\nOf course, we all should have seen the disaster looming: Years of effort on the part of the Republican Party to smear Hillary Clinton, the Russian dictator determined to steer the election to his personal candidate, and a compliant, uncritical American newsmedia going along with all that and helping them. But all that is beside the point.\nThe Orange Menace should NEVER have been allowed to be a candidate for president, let alone to succeed. And yet, he was, and he did. As we reflect on what we\u2019ve become as a people that we allowed him to succeed, it\u2019s important to focus on our values\u2014not the fact that we utterly oppose Don and the Republicans, but rather WHY we oppose them (it\u2019s not about them!) and the values we hold. Then, we must recommit to stopping Don and the Gang whenever possible, and to advancing those values of freedom and liberty once this storm front passes.\nLet\u2019s start with hope.\nLabels: America, Music, Pop Culture, US 2016 Elections, US Politics, Video\nIf there\u2019s only one thing that those on the centre and left in the USA can agree on, it must be this: Facts matter. This isn\u2019t about rote repetition of the phrase whenever we call out the lies and disinformation of our adversaries, even though debunking them is important. Instead, this means that we must be better than our adversaries in being extra super factually driven.\nToday I saw an example of how important that is.\nA nominally leftwing site posted a piece headlined, \u201cBREAKING: GOP Launches Bill To Charge You With TERRORISM If You Protest Trump\u201d (all caps in the original). Their Facebook teaser said a similar, \u201cBREAKING: The GOP just launched a new bill to charge you with TERRORISM for protesting Donald Trump,\u201d before adding, \u201cTyranny has arrived in America.\u201d Not one word of this is true.\nTo be clear, Don and his Gang absolutely represent an existential threat to democracy, freedom, and liberty, and they absolutely are already flirting with tyranny. However, this was NOT and example of that.\nThe post, which was shared on the site in January with neither dateline nor byline, declares that, \u201cA Republican lawmaker just introduced\u2026\u201d but that\u2019s not true: It was actually last November when a state senator in Washington state talked about proposing a bill to make it possible to charge protesters that block traffic or disrupt economic activity with a felony for committing \u201ceconomic terrorism\u201d. I checked the official website of the Washington state senate, and the guy never actually introduced his supposed bill. In fact, he never introduced a single bill in the entire session that ended in December\u2014not one bill.\nThe post goes on, \u201cThis would allow anyone that is deemed \u2018disruptive\u2019 to be charged with terrorism,\u201d which is also not true: The guy was talking about economic disruption, and while that may seem like mere semantics, the site\u2019s intent was clearly to imply that anyone engaging in their First Amendment protest rights could be charged with a felony.\nThe hyperbole continued: \u201cThis is the beginning of the end of American democracy as we know it. What\u2019s next, is Team Trump going to start going after every American who posted a disparaging comment about Trump online?\u201d The particular bill they\u2019re talking about doesn\u2019t exist, so the extreme question following is based on hot air and nothing else. It\u2019s also an absurd question that can only be taken seriously if one believed that Republicans were really moving to make \u201cprotesting Donald Trump\u201d illegal. The facts do not support that hyperbole.\nI mention all of this because it\u2019s an egregious example of propaganda divorced from fact and reality in order to rile up partisans\u2014exactly like the right wing does. We must be better than that.\nEvery single time we screw up and share something that's utterly untrue (let alone things like this that are just incredibly misleading), our adversaries will jump to rub our noses in it and subject us to abject ridicule. Their media\u2014Fox, their websites, along with their echo chamber on Facebook, Twitter, Reddit, etc., etc., will all join the chorus. That matters because \u201cMiddle America\u201d, who we need to win over, will think, \"Jeez, the two sides are as bad as each other\u2014always lying and exaggerating.\" That, in turn, means that when we use undeniably fact-based, unassailable information to mount legitimate criticism, \u201cMiddle America\u201d won\u2019t be listening, assuming we\u2019re unreliable and \u201cas bad as\u201d those we criticise. To win, we MUST go out of our way to stick only to verifiable facts. ALWAYS, and without exception.\nThe particular site is suspicious. It uses a name that\u2019s very similar to a legitimate progressive site, it goes out of its way, it seemed to me, to use emotive, hyperbolic language in an attempt to appeal to those on the Leftward side of Left\u2014think \u201cBernie or Bust\u201d types. And yet, many of their posts\u2014and I looked at quite a few\u2014don\u2019t use such language consistently, and that made me feel they were posing as a site on the Leftward side of Left. That, or maybe it\u2019s just not edited tightly enough.\nIn any case, here\u2019s what I do:\nI always follow the links to the post\u2019s source(s). If a post on politics doesn\u2019t include links, I move on assuming it\u2019s either lying or incompetent. So, I follow the links\u2014and whatever that links to\u2014to try and get to the original source for the information. Sometimes this turns out to be a self-referential circle of links, with no mainstream verification, and that always raises a red flag. Rarely, I\u2019ll try searching the subject to see if there\u2019s any information from a reliable source. But if I\u2019ve waded through self-referential ooze, I\u2019m not likely to bother.\nI try and verify conclusions purported to be based on official things. For example, I\u2019ll read the text of a bill (which is how I found out that the bill in the example I talked about above doesn\u2019t exist at the moment). If there\u2019s a government report, it\u2019s almost always available online somewhere. Same with scientific studies and opinion polls. When I do this, I sometimes don\u2019t think the conclusions the author drew are justified, which has been a topic in several posts on this blog. Most times, however, the conclusions are legitimate, even if framed in a partisan way. But I can\u2019t know that if I don\u2019t check.\nAll of this can be a lot of work, and it can require a lot of time. So, I have one other rule I always follow: If I\u2019m not certain about the trustworthiness of a site or what it shares, then I don\u2019t share it. I rarely share political things, memes included, for this reason.\nWe have an obligation to be better than our adversaries. If we keep saying that \"Facts Matter\", we have to mean it. Scepticism and doubt are among our best tools right now, and that has to apply to those operating (or appearing to operate) on our side as well as those backing our adversaries.\nFootnotes: I never link to sites at the farthest ends of the spectrum, so I won\u2019t share a link to the post I\u2019ve been talking about. However, you can copy and paste this link to get there: http://bit.ly/2iNyw28\nAlso, the site\u2019s reviewed on Media Bias/Fact Check, which, while highly imperfect, is nevertheless pretty fair in its review of the site.\nLabels: Internet Stuff, Media, Truth Squad, US Politics, Wingnuts\nThe graphic above is making the rounds in social media, shared by Kiwis from all over New Zealand. It\u2019s because the one thing we all have in common this year is that this summer has been crap so far. As the old saying goes, you have to laugh, or you\u2019d cry.\nOur summer here in our part of Auckland has been cooler and wetter than usual\u2014more like late autumn or early spring than summer. Sure, we\u2019ve had a few warm, though not particularly hot, days, and some have been very sunny, but overall they\u2019ve been neither.\nIn fact, in Central Otago\u2014normally very hot and dry this time of year\u2014a cold snap brought snow\u2014SNOW! I can remember other cold snaps in summer before (I\u2019ve had two decades of NZ summers, after all\u2026), but they\u2019re as uncommon as you\u2019d expect.\nThis weather has some implications, and not just for entertaining kids on their \u201csummer\u201d holiday form school, nor does it only affect families away for a summer holiday somewhere (I sympathises especially with people who go camping this time of year). There are numerous outside projects I want to finish up, but the weather has just been too unpredictable, and too awful too often, to get those projects done.\nOn the other hand, with those projects put on continuous hold, it\u2019s given me a fairly decent excuse to just relax instead. Last year was both a busy and trying year, so a bit of rest and relaxation is probably a good thing in itself. But I\u2019d still like a little decent weather, too.\nSo, we joke about our lack of summer, not the least because so many of us thought\u2014or, at least, hoped\u2014that the weather would have improved by now. I suppose that since we can\u2019t do anything about the weather, joking about it is as positive a response as can be expected. Some days, it\u2019s all the sunshine we get.\nI have no idea who created the graphic up above, so I can\u2019t give proper credit. I could have made my own version, I suppose, but I\u2019m too relaxed to do that at the moment. Hm, maybe this weather has some benefits after all!\nLabels: Auckland, Internet Stuff, Life in NZ, Memes, New Zealand, North Shore, Weather\nVisiting Elliott St for lunch. It's nice being on holiday. #auckland #lifeinnz\nA photo posted by arthur_amerinz (@arthur_amerinz) on Jan 1, 2017 at 4:23pm PST\nOne of the best things about being on holiday is the freedom to have lunch and/or dinner out. Doing it isn't the point, nice though that is, it\u2019s having the freedom to do it. Today we exercised that freedom.\nNigel\u2019s mum is staying with us this week and we decided to go have yum cha, which people in the USA and the UK usually call dim sum (and today I learned that yum cha is actually the more accurate term for the experience, since dim sum refers to the food). So, we went to Dragon Boat, which is located in the Atrium on Elliott, a mixed use development fronting onto Elliott Street in Auckland\u2019s CBD (Central Business District).\nElliott Street is a \u201cshared space\u201d which is similar to what used to be called a \u201cpedestrian mall\u201d, areas that were formerly streets but changed to allow only pedestrians. Shared spaces, in the other hand, remove the distinction between footpath and road so that pedestrians and vehicles can share the space. Naturally, they are slow speed areas and pedestrians always have the right of way. Auckland Council has a programme for creating shared spaces in town centres throughout Auckland.\nElliott Street used to be a narrow, one lane street with limited parking, and part of it was more like an alley, and as barren and unwelcoming as that may sound. The rest of the street wasn\u2019t very welcoming, either. Now, the street plaza is wide and welcome, a vibrant and lively place, even on a public holiday like today.\nThe photo up top is actually just of the angel hanging about the street space, and of one of the old buildings behind it. The Atrium on Elliott is the right and out of view.\nThe photo below is looking up the hill toward Wellesley Street. The Atrium on Elliott has all the banners for \u201cThe Warehouse\u201d, which moved into the Atrium after its former location in the Downtown Shopping Centre was torn down to make room for a new tower (and for construction of the underground City Rail Link).\nWalking to the restaurant, I realised how much I need to do some photo expeditions into the CBD. Among other things, there are some lovely old buildings I\u2019d like to share. Add that to this year\u2019s agenda.\nLunch will be required, I'm sure.\nAnd more Elliott Street Plaza. #auckland #lifeinnz\nLabels: AmeriNZ, Auckland, Auckland Views, Instagram, Life in NZ, Photography",

        "raw_content": "PRIVATE RAILROAD GRADE CROSSINGS: TRENDS AND LESSONS\nVirtually forgotten among the issues, analyses and claims relating to railroad grade-crossing safety are the trends associated with private railroad crossings \u2013 that is, grade crossings where railroad track intersects with property owned by private entities (farmers, business enterprises, individuals, etc.) as opposed to public road authorities. Private crossings are not the recipients of federal funds for safety upgrades and are overwhelming unprotected as they lack active warning devices. Still, their statistics are often meshed with that of public crossings to draw overall conclusions regarding the safety of grade crossings in this country. In a nutshell, the conclusion reached by a number of \u201cinsiders\u201d is that that grade-crossing safety has improved substantially over the past 30 years, largely in part because of motorist education. However, a close examination of private crossings results in the rejection of such \u201cconventional wisdom.\u201d The impact of this realization should resound with those responsible for identifying and rectifying safety needs at our nation\u2019s public railroad crossings.\nShown below in five-year increments, is the annual number of private grade crossings since 1975, the number of casualties (deaths plus injuries) at those crossings, and the number of casualties per crossing. Although intermittent years were not included\n2004 (Est.) 94,000 154 .0016\nin the above figures for the purpose of brevity, considering data for all years between 1975 and 2004 leads to three statistical observations:\nThe number of private grade crossings has been steadily declining, with lower numbers in each and every year since 1975. Currently, there are about 34% fewer crossings than in 1975, indicating that without any improvement in safety at private crossings, there should be 34% fewer casualties from accidents at those crossings.\nWhile the number of casualties has clearly declined since 1975, the records in individual years are widely varied, with some years showing increases and other years showing declines.\nWhen the general decline in the number of casualties is appropriately related to the steadily decline in the number of crossings, the resulting statistic of casualties-per-crossing produces no readily observable overall trend. At the same time, there is no indication that the casualty rate has declined.\nTo identify the trend of casualties-per-crossing since 1975 \u2013 given varying measurements over the 29-year span between 1975 and 2004 \u2013 a mathematical technique was applied, known as \u201cleast squares.\u201d Least squares is a calculation (automatically applied in the Microsoft computer program, \u201cExcel\u201d) for finding the best fit of a trend line by minimizing the sum of the squares of the offsets (residuals) of the points being measured. Applying the least squares technique to the 29 casualties-per-crossing measure between 1975 and 2004 results in a trend line that increases. In essence, since 1975, the number of casualties-per-crossing resulting from accidents at private railroad crossings has increased. This fact flies in the face of the overall decline in casualties from railroad-crossing accidents. Stated differently, the decline in casualties-per-crossing at public crossings masks the increase in casualties-per-crossing at private crossings.\nIt is important to recognize that casualties-per-crossing have increased at private crossings for two major reasons. First, it indicates that motorist education is not as potent as it is alleged to be. After all, motorists utilize both public and private crossings and they could not be expected to change their driving habits based on this distinction. While motorist education may be desirable, there is simply no evidence as to its relative effectiveness. And second, since gates are rarely employed at private crossings, over 25,000 have been installed at public crossings since 1975, and thus, there is a very strong inference that such installations constitute the overwhelming reason why casualties-per-crossing have declined at public crossings. Surely, these two factors are extremely important in determining how public monies should be spent in providing safety at railroad crossings. Surely, public policy makers should recognize the differences in performance between public and private crossings when making determinations as to the value of crossing gates. And surely, the railroad-crossing environment should add this fact about private crossings to the environment in which crossing issues are discussed, analyzed and hopefully, resolved.",

        "raw_content": "Published on 7/6/2009 under Bizarre Medical Stories - by Gracie Murano - 235,206 views\nWindow washer in coma after falling 47 Stories woke up on Christmas day\nAlcides Moreno, 37, fell 47 stories from a New York skyscraper when a freak accident sent his window-washing platform plunging to the concrete pavement. The accident killed his brother, who was working on the same scaffolding platform, and left Moreno is such a bad state that doctors couldn't risk moving him to an operating room. Instead, they operated on him in the emergency room, leaving him in a vegetative state for nearly three weeks. Finally, he showed signs of consciousness and spoke -- on Christmas day. Less than a month later, he was discharged with the expectation that he would walk again within a year's time. Considering that the death rate from even a four-story fall is about 50%, Moreno's survival, thanks in part to some fortunate circumstances, is astounding.\nTeenage model had her body held together by 11 rods\nKatrina Burgess, 17, was told by doctors she may never walk again after surviving a 70mph car crash with a broken neck and back, and a catalogue of other injuries. But after being put back together with 11 metal rods and enough pins and screws to send an airport security detector into overdrive, Katrina was signed up by a modeling agency.\nSurgeons saved her life after her car left the M5 and crashed into a ditch as she travelled towards her home town of Weymouth, Dorset. She snapped her back, punctured both lungs and broke her neck, her pelvis, her left leg and several ribs. Surgeons at Musgrove Park Hospital in Taunton, Somerset, said that without surgery to help the bones to fuse, her spinal injuries in particular could deteriorate, risking death.\nDoctors inserted a rod from her hip to her knee in her left leg the day after she was admitted to hospital. It was secured inside with four titanium pins. The most risky operation came a week later. They sliced open her back and inserted six more horizontal rods up the length of her back to support her spine. A week after that, they inserted a titanium screw to the top of her spine to support the break in her fragile neck. Only a day after the last operation she was able to take her first steps.\nAstonishingly, five months on from the crash, the teenager has recovered to the point where she no longer even needs painkillers. (Link)\nTeen lived 118 days without heart\nIt was supposed to be a great day for 14-year-old D'Zhana Simmons, who received a transplant to replace her enlarged heart. However, her dream turned into a nightmare when the new heart failed to function properly. Doctors had to remove the new organ, but without another heart available and with D'Zhana weakened from the surgery, they had to come up with a stopgap measure: two artificial pumps that kept the blood flowing in her body for close to four months. The feat was newsworthy partially because of D'Zhana's age and partially because when an artificial heart is used to sustain a patient, the patient's own heart is usually left in the body. Finally, on October 29, D'Zhana received another heart transplant, and it was so successful that she had a kidney transplant the very next day. (Link 1 | Link 2)\nBlind man got his sight back after having a tooth implanted into his eye\nMartin Jones, a 42-year-old builder, was left blind after an accident at work more than a decade ago. But a remarkable operation - which implants part of his tooth in his eye - has pierced his world of darkness. The procedure, performed fewer than 50 times before in Britain, uses the segment of tooth as a holder for a new lens grafted from his skin.\nHe lost his sight after a tub of white hot aluminium exploded in his face at work in a scrapyard. He suffered 37 per cent burns and had to wear a special body stocking for 23 hours a day. He also had his left eye removed. But surgeons were able to save the right eye, even though he was unable to see through it. At first specialists in Nottingham tried to save his sight using stem cells from a donor but the attempt failed.\nIt was only when a revolutionary new operation was pioneered at the Sussex Eye Clinic in Brighton that he was given a chance to have his sight back. During the procedure, a minute section of a patient's tooth is removed, reshaped and chiselled through to grip the man-made lens which is then placed in its core. It is implanted under an eyelid where it becomes covered in tissue.\nThe process requires a living tooth as an implant because doctors suggest there are chances the eye would reject a plastic equivalent. So a canine - which is the best option due to its shape and size - was taken out of Mr Jones' mouth. A patch of skin is then taken from the inside of the cheek and placed in the eye for two months, where it gradually acquires its own blood supply. The tooth segment is finally transplanted into the eye socket. The flap of grafted skin is then partially lifted from the eye and placed over its new sturdy base.\nMr Jones, from Rotherham, South Yorkshire, was able to see for the first time his wife Gill, 50, whom he had married four years ago.\nMother who had to chose to save one twin got to keep both after disconnecting blood vessels\nShannon and Mike Gimbel faced an agonizing choice. Doctors told them one of the twin girls they were expecting needed to be terminated or both would die. Doctors at Swedish Medical Center had diagnosed Gimbel's twins with Twin-To-Twin Syndrome, or TTTS. It is a condition in which the twins are connected by blood vessels. One twin literally drains the life out of the other. Left untreated, there is an 80 to 90 percent chance that one or both will die.\nShannon and Mike were struggling with the suggestion to terminate the weaker baby when their physician at Swedish, Dr. Kent Heyborne, approached them with another option. He'd made contact with Drs. Robert Bell and Michael Belfort of St. Mark's Hospital in Salt Lake City, Utah. The Utah surgeons teamed with those at Swedish to perform laser surgery in the womb to cauterize the blood vessels that were connecting, and slowly killing, the twins.\nShannon says she remembers holding her breath as a nurse used an ultrasound to listen for heartbeats after the surgery. One, then another. Both girls had made it. Reese and McKenna Gimbel were born at Swedish two months later.\nBoy recovered after orthopedic decapitation\nJordan Taylor was in a car accident that separated his skull from his vertebrae. There was no connection between the bones of the neck and the head. Doctors call the injury an \"orthopedic decapitation\" and at the time gave Jordan a one percent chance for survival.\nThe tissue may have been destroyed, but the faith of Jordan's family was intact. Word about what happened to Jordan spread to the family's church and others churches across the country. Jordan's mother says at one time she knew of at least 20 churches that were praying for her son.\nDr. Roberts reconnected Jordan's head to his neck with a metal plate, screws and titanium rods. 3 months after the accident, Jordan left the hospital and is now back at school. (Link)\nWife shot by husband got a new face\nConnie Culp is a 46-year-old Ohio woman who has had the first face transplant in the US, and her new look was a far cry from the puckered, noseless sight that made children shrink away in horror, after being shot by her husband.\nCulp's expressions are still a bit wooden, but she can talk, smile, smell and taste her food again. Her speech is at times a little tough to understand. Her face is bloated and squarish, and her skin droops in big folds that doctors plan to pare away as her circulation improves and her nerves grow, animating her new muscles. Culp's husband, Thomas, shot her in 2004 then turned the gun on himself. He went to prison for seven years. His wife was left clinging to life. The blast shattered her nose, cheeks, the roof of her mouth and an eye. Hundreds of fragments of shotgun pellet and bone splinters were embedded in her face. She needed a tube into her windpipe to breathe. Only her upper eyelids, forehead, lower lip and chin were left.\nShe endured 30 operations. Doctors took parts of her ribs to make cheekbones and fashioned an upper jaw from one of her leg bones. She had countless skin grafts from her thighs. Still, she was left unable to eat solid food, breathe on her own, or smell. Then, in a 22-hour operation, Dr. Maria Siemionow led a team of doctors who replaced 80 percent of Culp's face with bone, muscles, nerves, skin and blood vessels from another woman who had just died. It was the fourth face transplant in the world.\nNo information has been released about the donor or how she died, but her family members were moved when they saw before-and-after pictures of Culp.\nSurfer mauled by a shark had his hanging hand reattached\nThirty-three-year-old Glenn Orgias was attacked by a great white shark while surfing at Sydney's Bondi Beach. He was taken to St Vincent's Hospital with his hand hanging by a three centimetre piece of skin. Plastic surgeon Dr Kevin Ho never expected that they would be able to reattach the hand. But given the patient general health and the speed of which he was rushed into the operating theatre made it a possibility that he could have his hand reattached. Dr Ho said leeches were used as part of the effort to restore blood flow to the hand, and he is hopeful that Mr Orgias will regain function in it. (Link)\nParaplegic man suffered a spider bite and started walking again\nA motorcycle accident almost killed David Blancarte 21 years ago. He was spared his life, but was unable to move his legs. He was confined to a wheelchair for 20 years. But two years ago, he was bitten by a brown recluse spider and was hospitalized for and spent 8 months in physical therapy.\nIn therapy, a nurse noticed a spasm in one of Blancarte's legs and run some tests. Five days later David was walking again. (Link)\nNear-vegetative man was back to life after stimulation electrodes were implanted into his skull\nA man who was left in a near-vegetative state by a serious assault was able to speak and eat again. The severely brain-injured patient, who is now 38, was unable to communicate, swallow or make coordinate movements for six years, before doctors revived him from this minimally conscious state (MCS) with a revolutionary therapy.\nSince his skull was implanted with electrodes to stimulate a deep-lying and undamaged part of his brain, he has improved so dramatically that he can now feed himself, brush his hair and recognize and talk to his parents and doctors. The transformation achieved by the deep brain stimulation (DBS) technique, which is already used to treat Parkinson's disease and some neurological disorder (like Tourrett's Syndrome), has raised hopes that it could offer a way back to consciousness for many people with similarly serious brain damage. Thanks, William! (Link)",

        "raw_content": "Some victims say archdiocese's plan doesn't go far enough\nWith photos of abuse victims lying on the ground, the Rev. Domenic Roscioli addresses the media with his mother, Angie Roscioli, 91, by his side on Tuesday at the federal courthouse in Milwaukee. Credit: Mike De Sisti\nGroup calls for review of archdiocese plan\nArchdiocese Bankruptcy\nThe Catholic Archdiocese of Milwaukee, which faces more than a dozen civil fraud lawsuits over its handling of clergy sex abuse cases, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in 2011. As the case proceeds, we'll have updates, analysis, documents and more.\nA group of victims with claims in the Archdiocese of Milwaukee bankruptcy on Tuesday criticized its latest reorganization plan as inadequate, saying it does not do enough to ensure the protection of children or hold the archdiocese accountable for its past actions.\nIn a news conference on the steps of the federal courthouse in Milwaukee, victims called for an independent review of the estimated 570 claims filed by men and women detailing their sexual abuse as children by priests and others connected with the 10-county archdiocese.\nAnd they said U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Susan V. Kelley should release all claims now under seal \u2014 redacted to shield victims \u2014 so the public can assess for itself the scope of the abuse scandal in southeastern Wisconsin and whether the church has done enough to protect children.\n\"All of these reports need to be investigated,\" said Peter Isely of the Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests. He cited assertions by victims' attorneys in court that the sealed records identify at least 100 offenders whose names have never been made public.\n\"Where are those other 100-plus offenders? ... That's the most important piece of information in this bankruptcy,\" Isely said.\nThe reorganization plan filed by the Archdiocese of Milwaukee on Monday includes several so-called nonmonetary provisions aimed at protecting children. However, it does not appear to include an independent review of the allegations or the release of additional documents.\nThe plan maintains that children in the archdiocese are safe, saying 99% of the diocesan priests named in the claims are dead, retired or have left or been removed from ministry. That statistic does not include teachers, nuns, religious order priests and others who have been accused in the claims.\nJerry Topczewski, chief of staff for Archbishop Jerome Listecki, issued a statement Tuesday saying the church has \"worked closely with abuse survivor attorneys to provide full transparency and confidence in the steps the archdiocese has taken to ensure the safety of children in this community.\" That included posting the names of abusive priests on the archdiocese website and the release in July 2013 of about 6,000 pages of church documents detailing the church's handling of sex abuse cases.\nThe reorganization plan lays out how the archdiocese would compensate victims and continue to operate post-bankruptcy. It must still be voted on by creditors and approved by Kelley, who has scheduled a confirmation hearing to begin Nov. 9.\nJames Stang, who represents the creditors committee, said he was reviewing the plan and would propose changes. Stang and Charles Linneman, who chairs the creditors committee, have said they believe the deal was the best they could negotiate.\nAmong the provisions in the plan:\n\u25a0The archdiocese would set aside at least $21.25 million in a trust to compensate victims. The total number of claims to be paid and at what level is in flux. As of Monday, 336 would receive a payment based on a claims review process. Some 119 would get $2,000 or could try to persuade Kelley that their claims should be included in the larger pool. About 124 would receive no financial payment.\n\u25a0An additional $8 million would go to pay legal and professional fees, bringing the total to about $19.4 million as of July 31.\n\u25a0 The plan would be financed with $16 million from the archdiocesan cemetery trust, $3 million of which is a loan; $11 million from its insurance carriers; and $2.4 million from two funds it maintains for continuing education of priests, and orphans and other welfare needs. Parishes would contribute $500,000 for a therapy fund. And the Faith in Our Future Trust would contribute $200,000 toward a program of the archdiocese's choosing. Parishes, schools and certain other Catholic entities would get a waiver of liability.\n\u25a0The archdiocese would continue to try to sell five undeveloped properties currently worth about $3 million, though that could take years, it said.\n\u25a0Confirmation of the plan would settle pending lawsuits over the archdiocese's cemetery trust and insurance policies. And it would prohibit future lawsuits against the Faith in Our Future trust or the Cousins Center, the archdiocese's headquarters building.\nAmong the survivors on the courthouse steps Tuesday were Angie Roscioli, 91, who is thought to be the oldest victim with a claim in the bankruptcy, and her son, the Rev. Domenic Roscioli.\nA diocesan priest, Roscioli said he was proud of his mother, who went public with her story in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel on Sunday. And he took issue with the archdiocese's assertion that it's time to \"turn the page\" on this painful chapter in its history.\n\"The page never turns for victims,\" the priest said.",

        "raw_content": "58 THE NEW YORKER, JANUARY 15, 2018 THE CRITICS ON TELEVISION FRIENDS IN HIGH PLACES The ideological acrobatics of Trump's favorite morning show. BY ANDREW MARANTZ to deliver some o -the-cu remarks. \"I know they like to say---people that don't know me---they like to say I watch television,\" he said. \"People with fake sources---you know, fake reporters, fake sources. But I don't get to watch much television, primarily because of docu- ments. I'm reading documents a lot.\" This was weird, even by Trump's stan- dards. For one thing, \"reading documents a lot\" is high on the list of activities it's nearly impossible to imagine Trump doing, along with foraging, Pilates, and intro- spection. For another, no one on the plane had said anything about television. It later became clear that the impetus for Trump's outburst was an e-mail he'd just received from the Times---a list of fifty-one fact- checking questions for an article about him. Of these, he felt compelled to re- spond, indirectly, to just one, about his \"prodigious television watching habits.\" When the piece came out, it reported that Trump begins his day by watching TV in bed, where he \"tweets while propped on his pillow.\"(Trump, on Twitter: \"Wrong!\") Trump has been candid about his TV dependency for years. In a inter- view with Howard Stern, he described escaping from his own wedding recep- tion---his second, when he married Marla Maples---as quickly as possible to look at coverage of the wedding. \"I ran back and turned on the television,\" he said. (A diagnostic test called the Television Ad- diction Scale asks subjects to agree or disagree with several statements, includ- ing \"When I am unable to watch tele- vision, I miss it so much that you could call it 'withdrawal.' \") During his trip to Asia, he tweeted, \"I was forced to watch @CNN, which I have not done in months, and again realized how bad, A chart of Trump's tweets, plotted by President Trump woke up on Novem- ber rd, turned on the television, and started tweeting shortly before . . \"Everybody is asking why the Justice De- partment (and FBI) isn't looking into all of the dishonesty going on with Crooked Hillary & the Dems,\" he typed. \"People are angry.\" By \"everybody\" and \"people,\" he seemed to mean, as he often does, the three anchors of the top-rated cable morning show, \"Fox & Friends,\" who happened to be discussing that very topic live on air, deploying their trademark brand of folksy, disingenuous outrage. Soon afterward, one of the co-hosts said, \"And now the President is tweet- ing about this.\" \"I think he's tweeting right now!\" another said. The thin fourth wall be- tween Trump and his TV had been bro- ken once again. In the Fox News studio, the fresh tweets were displayed in bold type on a thirty- foot-wide screen, Trump's larger-than- life Twitter avatar peering, Rushmore-like, into the middle distance. (Presumably, the real Trump, in the Presidential bedroom, peered back, an elderly youth gazing into a shallow pool.) A co-host read the tweets aloud, and then, completing the feedback loop, said, \"This has been the question that people have had about Hillary Clinton and her campaign.\" By \"people,\" she seemed to mean, as the anchors of \"Fox & Friends\" often do, Donald Trump. \"Fox & Friends\" ended at nine. Mo- ments later, Trump arrived on the South Lawn of the White House, answered a few questions from reporters, and left for a ten-day trip to Asia. A few days into the trip, en route from China to Viet- nam, he walked to the rear of Air Force One, where the press corps was sitting, ABOVE LEWIS SCOTT",

        "raw_content": "School budget items cut\nBy TARA REILLY / Staff Writer\nThe Washington County Board of Education Tuesday cut an item from the schools superintendent's proposed fiscal 2002 budget, and come up with some grant money, freeing up $284,000 for other items listed in the budget.\nThe School Board cut $216,000 for four new school buses and will use $68,000 in grants to pay the salary of a software specialist.\nThe board also agreed to eliminate next year's convocation ceremony, which will save the school system more than $20,000, according to School Board members.\nThe board's Finance Committee, made up of School Board members Roxanne Ober, Paul Bailey and Doris Nipps, made the recommendations at a budget work session.\nThe committee was created by the School Board to help the board make decisions on financial issues. Nipps was absent from the work session.\nChris South, the School Board's director of budget and finance, said that if the software specialist's salary is funded with grant money, the school system would be left to pay about $25,000 for maintenance of software and hardware.\nThe board also agreed to look for alternate grants to fund the Abacus specialist and program in the future. The grant expires in 2003.\nAbacus is a computer program that monitors student progress of individual curriculum goals and provides teachers with personalized lesson plans for students. It also helps identify students at risk of not earning their high school diplomas. The Abacus specialist oversees the program.\nThe School Board decided to eliminate the $216,000 requested for four new school buses because it had already agreed to buy two new buses, which were recently paid for through this year's budget, Ober said. The School Board also previously agreed to renew the services of two school bus contractors, eliminating the need to buy four new buses.\nOber said the School Board's actions gives it the financial leeway to consider other priorities in the budget.\n\"It's not that we're saving money from the operating budget, but it would give us the flexibility to look at other plans on the priority list,\" Ober, chairwoman of the Finance Committee, said of the new money changes.\nShe said the committee would continue to consider budget changes and plans to look at Schools Superintendent Herman G. Bartlett Jr.'s decision to upgrade the board's public relations position from a community relations specialist to a public information officer.\nThe upgraded position would pay between about $53,000 to about $73,000 a year. The community relations specialist position paid about $36,000.\nThe School Board also voted to give itself more time to consider additional changes. It originally planned to adopt the proposed budget on Feb. 6, but will now wait until Feb. 20. It has rescheduled its next public hearing on the budget from Feb. 13 to Feb. 27.\nBartlett has proposed a $127.4 million budget for fiscal year 2002. The budget lists $9.6 million in new money requests, with $6.9 million, or about 70 percent, coming from local funds.\nThe board also agreed to cut its schoolwide convocation, which has been a kickoff to each new academic year since 1998, when Bartlett implemented it. It has been the target of criticism since it began, with several school employees complaining that it was a waste of time and money.\nBartlett has said in the past that the convocation is a way to bring the school system together and start the year off as a team. The board hires a motivational speaker to inspire its employees at the start of the year.\nOber said the total cost that was proposed for the convocation in the 2002 budget was $20,400.\nMary Wilfong was the only board member who thought the convocation should remain, but only with a reduction in cost and other changes.\n\"It would be really important to ... talk about what we would hope to happen to our students for the forthcoming year.\"\nParents claims school grant funds wasted\nSchool Board OKs budget\nSchool board budget approved",

        "raw_content": "Russia, which has backed Maduro's socialist government to the tune of billions of dollars, this week promised to stand by him after opposition leader Juan Guaido declared himself president with Washington's endorsement.\nFrom then on, countries in the region realized they had a partner in the US willing to tackle a crisis that had been years in the making but which previous USA administrations had chosen to play down because of limited national security implications, said Fernando Cutz, a former senior national security adviser on Latin America to both President Barack Obama and Trump. A USA official said intermediaries were used to deliver messages to Guaido's political mentor and opposition power broker Leopoldo Lopez, who is under house arrest after he tried and failed to lead a mass uprising against Maduro in 2014.\nPompeo says the USA doesn't recognize the authority of Maduro and that he doesn't have the legal authority to break diplomatic relations with the U.S.\nWe encourage other Western Hemisphere governments to recognise National Assembly President Guaido as the Interim President of Venezuela, and we will work constructively with them in support of his efforts to restore constitutional legitimacy.\n\"They believe they have a colonial hold in Venezuela, where they decide what they want to do\", Maduro said in an address broadcast live on state TV.\nMore news: Australian Open Diary: Naomi Osaka's back-to-back slam dream still alive\nCorbyn tweeted a picture of himself and shadow foreign secretary Emily Thornberry, and said he \"set out Labour's agenda and exchanged ideas on a future relationship based on mutual respect and human rights\".\nIt's unclear how many U.S. Embassy staff remain in Caracas.\nMaduro's presidency has coincided with a decline in Venezuela's socioeconomic status, with crime, inflation, poverty, and hunger increasing. If the opposition doesn't take power, Canada will be left trying to deal with a government it has denounced as illegitimate.\nSpeaking at the World Economic Forum in Switzerland, Colombian leader Ivan Duque said Maduro should \"step aside and let the Venezuelan people be free\". Maduro, who has presided over a spiraling political and economic crisis, still controls both the army and the Supreme Court.\nMaduro's key ally Russian Federation denounced Guaido's bid as a \"usurpation\" of power and warned that \"this is a direct path to lawlessness and bloodshed\".\nAt an emergency meeting Thursday, 16 nations from the Organization of American States recognized Guaido as interim president.\nUnited Nations human rights chief Michelle Bachelet's office said Friday that it had credible reports that security forces or members of pro-government armed groups had shot at least 20 people during protests on Tuesday and Wednesday.\nHowever, Trump has taken an increasingly tough line with Venezuela since he took office in January 2017, imposing an escalating series of targeted sanctions.\nMaduro's claims the United States has a $120-million fund for \"buying\" Venezuelan officers.\n\"Maduro relies on the military, and they rely on him, to enrich themselves and avoid facing trial if the regime ultimately falls\", said Salamanca.\nMaduro responded by saying he was cutting off diplomatic ties with Washington, as his riot police clashed with opposition supporters in Caracas. The Venezuelan president's main financial backer China said it opposes \"interference\" in Venezuelan affairs.\nThe first week a person files for benefits is considered their waiting week and the claimant will not receive money.

        "raw_content": "Tigers Play Host To Butler For Homecoming\nIt\u2019s homecoming and a \u201cwhiteout night\u201d at Newman Stadium as the undefeated North Allegheny Tigers (6-0) play host to the winless Butler Golden Tornado (0-6) tonight. North Allegheny clinched a playoff berth with a 10-6 win over Seneca Valley last week and boasts a conference record of 5-0. Butler sits at 0-4 in conference play and is coming off a 42-0 loss at the hands of Norwin last Friday.\nButler last made the postseason in 2012 and has not had a winning season since 1997. A junior quarterback on the 1997 squad is now the new head coach of the Golden Tornado, Eric Christy. In his first-year as the head man at Butler, Christy is hoping to rebuild the Golden Tornado. Christy spent the last few seasons as the team\u2019s offensive coordinator.\nDespite a brand-new coach, the Golden Tornado have been stuck in neutral this season and have not scored a touchdown since week three. Not only has Butler been shutout for 12 consecutive quarters, the team has not thrown a touchdown pass in over three years. Butler\u2019s offense averages seven points per game, while the defense permits 48 points per contest.\nOn the opposite end of the spectrum, North Allegheny\u2019s offense averages 36 points per game and the NA defense permits only 11 points per contest. Offensively, the Tigers are led on the ground by senior tailback Ben Maenza with 659 yards and 11 touchdowns this season. In a defensive struggle last week, a sparkplug for the team was junior receiver Luke Colella, hauling in four passes for over 100 yards and also had a crucial 41-yard run in the second quarter to set up NA\u2019s first score. Both of the Tigers\u2019 scoring drives were set up by long plays from Colella.\nAnother key contributor to last week\u2019s victory over Seneca Valley was punter Isaac West who dropped in three punts inside the 20-yard line. By keeping the field tilted in NA\u2019s favor, West\u2019s kicks allowed the Tigers defense to tee off on Seneca Valley. The Raiders scored a touchdown on their first drive of the game, only to never be heard from for the rest of the night. Senior linebacker Cade Hoke led the team in tackles last week and has a team-best 42 tackles on the season. Senior Joey Porter Jr. made a crucial interception in the fourth quarter and senior Corey Melzer intercepted his team-leading fourth pass of the campaign. For a player profile on Melzer, check out the video below.\nKickoff for tonight\u2019s homecoming contest between North Allegheny and Butler is slated for 7:30 p.m. The game will be broadcast live via the internet by the North Allegheny Sports Network, with the pregame show getting underway at 7:10 p.m. To listen to tonight\u2019s game, click here.",

        "raw_content": "by stones \u00b7 February 27, 2008 at 11:50 am \u00b7 Filed under Blogroll, monthly letter\nLetter to Nikisha (Five years seven months):\nDear Niknik,\nWhat a month this has been, huh? It started out fine and we were content.\nThen our tolerance for each other was put to the test. In many ways we failed, but we made it through without injury. All four of us were sick at one time or another, overlapping each other at some points. You can only imagine just how awful that was for us. Tension ran high and patience ran low. We got on each other\u2019s nerves and couldn\u2019t help but get mad.\nBeing sick for so long also made us tired and sad. Coughing and sniffing, and blowing our noses. Unable to smell anything good or taste our food. All we could do is lay around and watch cartoons. Doesn\u2019t sound so bad, huh? Except when Mommy was the one that was sick and couldn\u2019t do anything. You wanted to play games and I wouldn\u2019t. You wanted to talk and I couldn\u2019t. You wanted to sing and dance, and I just didn\u2019t have the energy to even entertain the thought. It hurt me inside seeing you so sad because I couldn\u2019t do anything with you. I failed that part of the test, didn\u2019t I? The one where I\u2019m supposed to be SuperMom even when I\u2019m sick?\nDo not worry, though, because even though we didn\u2019t pass every test, we\u2019re learning.\nI knew that the next week was going to be all three of us girls\u2026 all the time. Your school district was having a mid-winter break and you had no school all week. You didn\u2019t even have jazz class this week. Added to that, Daddy had a full schedule with his regular job, his part-time job, plus his side job. We hardly saw him these past three weeks, and when we did, he was on the computer working some more. We were both sad that he didn\u2019t have time to hang out with us, but it\u2019s understandable. He\u2019s doing what needs to be done to give us a good life. Mommy knew what to do to make things better.\nWhen I felt well and my mind was clearer, I came up with an idea. We were going to have the mother-daughter crafty time we so deserved. You didn\u2019t even know what the idea was, but you jumped onboard without hesitation. You trusted that I would have something fun for us to do. That I did, and I planned to spread it out through the week. On the plus side, there were enough things that you could do on your own that I could get some of my own things done. That is, when I\u2019m not playing with your sister.\nThe first day I had you sit at the table and make a list. You had to write the names of all the people that you love. Since you were learning to read and spell in school, I figured this would be a good test of how much you\u2019ve learned. With very minimal assistance from me, you spelt out each name by sounding them out. I was so proud of how well you did, it didn\u2019t matter that you spelt every one of them wrong except for the one I helped you with.\nThen, over the next few days we drew and cut out shapes, wrote messages and glued things together. Let the ones we started dry and continued the next day. Finishing the first set, then starting on the second. The morning after we finished the first set, you were so excited to put it in the mailbox. We did a little every day and are still working on them.\nThe best part? It had been warm outside despite the fact that it\u2019s still winter. We needed the fresh air and sun, so I got us dressed and headed to the playground for some fun. We went three days in a row, and you got to be as loud and crazy as you wanted. No one got mad and you loved every minute of it.\nAn emotional roller coaster was the ride we got on for February. What a month it\u2019s been, huh?",

I based it on pictures and videos from the Internet. It looked beautiful,\" he says. \"I didn't know anyone in this country. I have no family here and no family friends here. So it was just basically me alone. That was a huge concern.\"\nWalaliyadde had been told to prepare for a culture shock, but found that people here weren't much different than in the U.A.E. \"I was pretty lucky because I made some really good friends my first week and that really helped,\" he says. \"It was nowhere near as bad as I expected it to be. People are pretty much the same.\"\nThe weather is a different story. \"When I first got here September was very cold for me. And my friends were like, 'Are you kidding me? It's not really that cold,'\" he says. \"It was the first time I'd seen snow, coming here.\"\nWalalilyadde's interest in nanotechnology began when he read Prey by Michael Crichton. \"It talked about the negative effects of it, but for some reason that really intrigued me and I read up on it a lot,\" he says. \"What I really want to do is change things at the most fundamental level because when you do that you get the greatest effect on the macroscopic properties of something.\"\nA member of the Cornell University Genetically Engineering Machines team, Walaliyadde is minoring in biomedical engineering. \"After I got here I realized I was really interested in bio stuff too,\" he says. \"In inorganic systems, the smallest possible level is moving atoms around and that's where materials science comes in, whereas in organic systems, living systems, the smallest possible changes are at the genetic level where you change individual base pairs, and that's why I'm really interested in that stuff.\"\nWalaliyadde is conducting research in Professor Mathew DeLisa's lab that could result in new cancer treatments. \"There's a system in the body called ubiquitination where proteins are targeted and destroyed. What we're trying to do is modify the enzyme that targets these proteins so we can target really harmful proteins in the body,\" he explains. \"I'm building a testing system for the things that the graduate student I work with is building so when he finishes his products he'll run it through this system and we'll be able to figure out if it actually works.\n\"That's really cool that I can have that much of an effect on some really interesting research that's going on,\" he continues. \"I did not think I would be able to play that big a role coming in and it's amazing that universities here can offer students that experience. I know that in a lot of other countries you don't actually get to do that.\"",

Things in the past couple of years have been different, there are fewer and fewer people here,\" said Gonel, with an American flag in his left hand.\nStreets around the World Trade Center \"used to be packed with people on Sept. 11 D.J. Swearinger Youth Jersey ,\" but now there are fewer people coming except tourists and families who lost their loved ones, he said.\nSixteen years have passed since a group of terrorists flew hijacked planes into New York's World Trade Center, the Pentagon and a field near Shanksville in the U.S. state of Pennsylvania, on Sept. 11, 2001. Nearly 3,000 people were killed during the attacks.\nAddressing a 911 anniversary commemoration at the Pentagon Stacy McGee Youth Jersey , U.S. President Donald Trump said on Monday that \"America cannot be intimidated.\" Trump, who was living in the New York city on Sept. 11 in 2001, vowed that such an attack would never be repeated.\nMeanwhile, Vice President Mike Pence addressed an observance at the Flight 93 National Memorial near Shanksville, Pennsylvania.\nA quiet commemoration was being held inside the World Trade Center site on Monday, with thousands of 911 victims' relatives Montae Nicholson Youth Jersey , survivors, rescuers and others gathering together to recite all the names of the dead and hold moments of silence.\nOutside the site, where Gonel stood, dozens of tourists were taking photos, pigeons were wondering around -- it was just like another ordinary day in September.\nWhile many Americans commemorated this day with tears and wishes, some were worried that as the memory of the tragedy is fading out Samaje Perine Youth Jersey , similar disastrous incident could happen to the country again.\n\"I feel like some people have forgotten,\" Damron Wilson, a volunteer for the commemoration, told Xinhua.\nHe worried that the American society has \"learnt to relax and move on,\" especially the younger generation.\nFor Wilson, his feeling of insecurity has worsened when he found that the nation has never been more divided.\n\"My mum told me that the country had been united after 911 Fabian Moreau Youth Jersey , but it is deeply divided now. Even today I can see Donald Trump's supporters clashing with people who are against him,\" he said.\n\"And with what happened in Charlottesville, I think domestic terrorism is likely to happen (again),\" he added.\nLast month, violent clashes erupted in Charlottesville, a historic college town in the U.S. state of Virginia Ryan Anderson Youth Jersey , between white nationalists and counterprotesters, leaving one killed and 19 others wounded.\nBorn and Raised in New York City, Gonel said that he did not feel safe either, especially amid the growing tensions between the city government and the police department.\nStaring at the new World Trade Center complex that opened in 2015, Gonel said he was afraid that the center has become more of a tourist spot than a memorial.\n\"Americans should come here and show some respect.

It should be returned to Turkish officials this week.\nThe sarcophagus that is believed to sculpted towards the end of the second century before Jesus-Christ in the ancient city of Dokimion, present day Antalya, dubbed the \"Turkish Riviera\" for its sunny touristic resorts, when the area was under Roman rule. It was smuggled from Turkey in the 1960s, according to officials.\nThe ancient roman artifact, which depicts the 12 labors of the legendary Hercules Rob Kelley Jersey , was on display at the Geneva University Museum of Arts and History. It will be delivered to the Antalya Museum where it will be displayed.\nTurkey, more than other countries, has lost many of its ancient treasures to thieves and blackmarketeers.\nIt has adopted a more assertive policy in the pursuit of her stolen history, training custom officers to identify the stolen artifacts and compiled a more efficient and up to date catalog of thousands of pieces in the hands of foreign country's collections.\nSince 2003, Turkey is pursuing a legal process for the retrieval of numerous artifacts.\nThe newly appointed Culture and Tourism minister Numan Kurtulmus explained last week to reporters that Turkey was working as a \"detective\" for the safe return of her stolen cultural property and that comprehensive efforts were being deployed in priority in this matter regarding 55 major artifacts in the hands of 17 different states.\n\"Legal and diplomatic efforts are being exerted in order to get these artifacts back.

        "title": "B2B Marketing Directions: Are Your Lead Response Practices Costing You Sales?",
        "raw_content": "Are Your Lead Response Practices Costing You Sales?\nOne of the most important requirements for maximizing results from your lead generation efforts is responding to new lead inquiries in a timely and appropriate fashion. Unfortunately, it's clear that many companies still have work to do in order to satisfy this basic requirement.\nOver the past decade, several research studies have examined the impact of lead response time on various aspects of lead generation success. One of the earliest was a 2007 study conducted by InsideSales.com and Dr. James Oldroyd. This research addressed several issues related to lead response methods and practices, but the most striking results pertained to the impact of responding quickly to lead inquiries. Here are two of the most significant findings:\nThe odds of contacting a lead are 100 times greater when the initial contact attempt is made withing 5 minutes vs. 30 minutes after the inquiry is submitted.\nThe odds of qualifying a lead are 21 times greater when the initial contact attempt is made within 5 minutes vs. 30 minutes after the inquiry is submitted.\nThese findings relate specifically to telephone contacts, and they clearly show that leads go cold quickly.\nSince 2007, InsideSales.com has conducted several additional studies on this topic, the most recent of which is the Annual 2014 Lead Response Report. The 2014 study describes the lead response patterns of more than 9,500 companies that were successfully tested by InsideSales.com during 2013. Here are three of the most significant findings:\n47% of the companies did not respond at all to the submitted inquiry.\nThe median first call response time of all companies that responded to the inquiry by telephone was 3 hours and 8 minutes.\nOnly 121 companies responded by telephone within the optimal 5-minute window.\nLast year, Velocify published The Ultimate Guide to Inquiry Response. This study found that only 21% of web inquiries received a telephone response within 30 minutes after the inquiry was submitted. The Velocify research also found that calling a lead within one minute more than doubled conversion rates (compared to calling a lead 48 hours or more after the inquiry was submitted).\nThese studies clearly show that most companies need to significantly improve their lead response processes. It's also important, however, to understand what this research is not saying. In all of these studies, the potential buyer submitted an inquiry that asked for someone to contact him or her, requested information or a demo, or otherwise signaled that he or she wanted to communicate with the company. Common sense, as well as the research, says that companies should respond to these types of inquiries as quickly as possible.\nThese studies did not address the situation in which someone views or downloads a content resource or attends a webinar. This type of \"inquiry\" does not necessarily signal that the individual is ready to have a conversation with the company, especially when the download or webinar is the individual's first contact with the company. I have long argued that companies make a mistake when they respond too aggressively to these types of \"inquiries,\" and these research studies don't contradict this important point.\nI have to admit that is one of my major pet peeves. Because of my work, I download a lot of content resources, and I attend a lot of webinars. I often receive a telephone call even when my only contact with the company is one download or one webinar. And the call often comes before I've even had time to read the content resource.\nWhen I accept one of these calls, what's even more frustrating is that it's clear that the caller has done nothing to learn about me, or what I do, or why I may have downloaded a resource or attended a webinar. In almost every case, if the caller had spent ten or fifteen minutes reviewing my LinkedIn profile, the articles I've published on LinkedIn, and the posts at this blog, we could have had a conversation that would have been much more valuable to the caller and his company.\nThe bottom line? When an inquiry signals that the individual is ready for a person-to-person conversation, then by all means, you should respond as quickly as possible. For other types of inquiries, immediate and aggressive person-to-person contacts may do more harm than good, especially if the caller hasn't done his or her homework.\nIllustration courtesy of Search Engine People Blog via Flickr CC.\nLabels: B2B Buyers, B2B Marketing, B2B Selling Process, Lead Nurturing\nElisa Planellas January 23, 2016 at 11:19 AM\nA good follow-up for a download would be an invitation to a webinar or a series of informative emails. A good follow-up for a webinar would be an emailed information package that includes a product or service brochure, a recap on the webinar, some how-to or next step instructions, and perhaps a free trial. The individual might then contact the company to sign up, or the sales person would then be in a better position when placing a sales call.",

        "raw_content": "Case Study: Don't Overlook The Ugly Ducklings.\nUgly Ducklings don\u2019t always turn into Swans, and concerns over location, tenant mix and shabby conditions are usually valid reasons for a Buyer to pass on a property. Here, however, is another instance where an experienced and capable investor was able to accept a bit of a \u201cproject\u201d in order to realize handsome returns.\nThe Property: A 4 level, 12 unit Apartment Block on a 33\u2019 x 120\u2019 RM-4 lot on Broadway near Fraser Street, in the Mount Pleasant area of Vancouver. The building is almost 9,000 sq.ft. in total area, and has \u201ccharacter\u201d elements with high ceilings, wood floors and spacious suites (10 x 1 bdrm & 2 x 2 bdrm). It is fully sprinklered, with upgrades to electrical & plumbing, but had been quite neglected with obvious deferred maintenance, a leaking roof & 3 suites vacant due to extensive renovation and repair. The tenants were a mix of short & long term, and mostly low income persons.\nThe Revenue: At the time of listing, the \u201cYear 2000\u201d revenue was stated as $78,000/year, less vacancy of $5,640 and operating expenses of $20,713, for a net income of $51,647 giving a Capitalization Rate of 10.6% on list price. In fact, with the vacant suites and an adjustment for higher energy costs, the actual, annualized net income at the time of negotiation was approximately $20,000/year less than this.\nThe Buyer: After a number of offers for the property, a successful and determined buyer emerged. This person was a real estate professional and had, in the past, owned a building much similar in location, condition and tenant mix. Although he never said so during the negotiation of the contract of sale, the buyer was confident that he could overcome the shortcomings of the property and make it a smooth running and very profitable investment.\nThe Sale: The property was listed at $489,000, and it was assessed at $491,000. Because of the income, and in spite of the location and appearance, there were many showings to qualified buyers. The factors that caused most of these buyers to back off was the fact that the building condition and tenant mix were issues needing immediate attention. The successful Buyer carefully considered this situation and negotiated a sale price of $450,000, but made the sale conditional on an extensive list of due diligence items. Over a 30 day period, these items (building inspection, environmental assessment, City work order search, appraisal, etc.) were systematically satisfied and the subjects were removed. Even after this, though, there were a couple of last minute delays in completing the sale as \u201csuprise\u201d issues regarding environmental factors and building insurance coverage had to be dealt with.\nThe Financing: This was not a \u201cslam dunk deal\u201d. Even though the Buyer had a downpayment of $150,000, and was borrowing only $300,000 (2/3rds of the sale price), securing and finalizing the mortgage commitment was a laborious process. As mentioned, the lender looked for a very clean environmental report, and was very sticky regarding the building insurance. A mortgage was arranged at 7 3/8%, on a 3 year term, with a yearly debt service cost of $26,000.\nSummary: The Buyer regarded the property as a project, and immediately began doing repairs and upgrades to the building, starting with a new roof and renovation of the 3 vacant suites. The building is heated by a natural gas boiler and hot water radiators, but every suite is also completely equipped with electric baseboard heaters tied into the electric panel in the unit. This allows the owner to convert (on a suite by suite basis) the heating system from gas to electric, and the utility costs from owner to mostly user pay! A vacant storage area (complete with its own electrical panel and plumbing) on the lower floor will become a coin laundry area for tenants. The Buyer expects to spend in the neighbourhood of $70,000 to $80,000 on the repairs and \u201cbeautification\u201d of the property over the next 2 years or so. By doing this, he expects to achieve rents averaging $650/mo. for the 1 bdrms, and $800/mo for the 2 bdrms, for a gross income of $97,000/yr. Adding laundry income of approx. $2,000/yr, and reducing heating expenses by approx. $8,000/yr could allow a net income of $75,000/yr for a Capitalization Rate of about 14%, and a \u201ccash on cash\u201d return of about 25%! This \u201cugly duckling\u201d might never be a swan, but it will likely be a \u201cgoose\u201d laying golden eggs for its owner for a good long time!\nGive me a call, Bob Bracken at 604-263-2823 if you would like to discuss this case study further or have any other questions.",

This was because she had a family history of breast cancer. This also led to what is known as the \u2018Jolie Effect\u2019 with people running to get genetic testing done.\nHowever, it can be a difficult decision. While it is simple, although expensive, blood test, the results can have significant emotional and financial repercussions. For that reason, those who are thinking about getting this test can benefit from talking first with a genetic counselor.\nGenetic tests are available for some types of cancer including breast, ovarian, colon, and thyroid cancers.\nGenetic testing is the use of medical tests to look for certain mutations in a person\u2019s genes. The most commonly known is testing for changes in the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes (which are known to increase the risk of breast cancer and some other cancers) in a woman who has a first degree relative with breast cancer.\nMost cancers start because of acquired gene mutations that happen during a person\u2019s lifetime. Sometimes these gene changes have an outside cause, such as exposure to sunlight or tobacco. But gene mutations can also be random events that sometimes happen inside a cell, without a clear cause.\nGenetic testing may help:\nPredict your risk of a particular cancer\nFind if you have genes that may pass increased cancer risk to your children\nProvide information to guide your health care plan. The results will help with diagnosis or management of a condition. For example, you may take steps to lower your risk. Steps may include surgery, medication, frequent screening, or lifestyle changes.\nNo genetic test can say whether you will develop cancer for sure. But it can tell you if you have a higher risk than most people.\nReasons to consider genetic testing for cancer\nGenetic testing is a complex decision best made in consultation with your doctor and a genetic counselor.\nBefore undergoing genetic testing, learn about its risks and limitations. Here are some questions to help you make a decision:\nSeveral first-degree relatives (mother, father, sisters, brothers, children) with cancer\nMany relatives on one side of the family who have had the same type of cancer\nA cluster of cancers in your family that are known to be linked to a single gene mutation ( such as breast, ovarian, and pancreatic cancers in your family).\nA family member with more than 1 type of cancer\nFamily members who had cancer at a younger age than normal for that type of cancer\nClose relatives with cancers that are linked to rare hereditary cancer syndromes\nA family member with rare cancer, such as breast cancer in a male or retinoblastoma\nA physical finding that\u2019s linked to an inherited cancer (such as having many colon polyps)\nA known genetic mutation in one or more family members who have already had genetic testing\nTags:BCPBF, Cancer, Cancer Foundation, Cancer Treatment, Genetic Testing",

        "raw_content": "\u201cI can say with 100% certainty that there is a really good chance we could see a huge, huge correction.\u201d These were the words that billionaire Mark Cuban told CNN host Erin Burnet back on May 16, 2016, to describe what would happen to the stock market if Donald Trump won the election. Trump won, but the market didn\u2019t experience a \u201chuge, huge correction.\u201d In fact, quite the opposite occurred.\nMr. Cuban surely was not alone in his call for a stock market correction\u2014a decline in the stock market of 10% or more from a recent high\u2014following a Trump victory. The argument for stock market volatility under President-elect Trump is that he is a Washington outsider with no political experience and has been accused of changing his position on certain topics. That creates policy uncertainty and policy uncertainty creates market volatility.\nYet, in his election night victory speech, Mr. Trump softened his tone, complimented Hillary Clinton on being a tough competitor and called for unity. Investor\u2019s quickly got the sense that Campaign Trump might not be the same as President Trump and investors started to focus on his policies. When it comes to his policies, many of them are pro-business and U.S. stocks started to rally following the election.\nConsider President-elect Trump\u2019s desire to reduce corporate taxes, repatriate overseas corporate cash and spend money on infrastructure. Broadly speaking, all three of these polices are good for businesses. They allow companies to keep more of their earnings and, in the case of infrastructure stimulus, gives some companies additional revenue and projects.\nIn another business friendly move, President-elect Trump would like the regulatory pendulum to change direction. Washington regulation has a history of swinging between higher regulatory and lower regulatory environments. Following the Great Recession, the regulatory pendulum swung quickly toward higher regulation. Businesses had to deal with the costly, and wide spanning regulations of Dodd-Frank and Obamacare. President-elect Trump has stated his desire to eliminate or soften both of these laws. This will start the pendulum swinging back toward less regulation, and businesses tend to prefer these types of environments.\nIn another unexpected move, interest rates jumped higher. On the Monday before the election, the interest rate on the 10-year U.S. Treasury was 1.83%. By the end of the week, it advanced to 2.15%. Investors immediately started to react to the potential impact that President Trump\u2019s policies may have on inflation. The rationale is that infrastructure spending, lower taxes and faster economic growth would cause both inflation to increase faster than previously thought and potentially increase in the national deficit.\nWith a litany of potential business friendly policies forthcoming, it seems to make sense that stocks would actually rally like they did. However, we want to stress, that while this may be the start of an acceleration in our economic growth, it won\u2019t come in a straight line. There will surely be bouts of volatility as the globe adapts to the policies and uncertainty that debating these polices may bring. Diversification remains a prudent way to manage these risks while participating in the potential upside.",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Catalog \u00bb INTO THE FOREST (#TIFF15 Review)\nINTO THE FOREST (#TIFF15 Review)\nPosted by Matthew Hoffman on Sep 13, 2015 in Catalog, TIFF | 2 comments\nWritten and Directed by Patricia Rozema / Starring Evan Rachel Wood, Ellen Page and Callum Keith Rennie\nFilmmaker Patricia Rozema has become a heroine of Canadian cinema. The director is known as being one of the most influential female filmmakers, largely due to her debut film I\u2019VE HEARD THE MERMAIDS SINGING. Since her first film, Rozema has been taking her time between projects, telling us in a recent interview that she was taking time off to raise her children, and that she would only get behind the camera for something that was very special to her. Now six years since she wrote the brilliant screenplay for HBO\u2019s Grey Gardens, Rozema returns with INTO THE FOREST.\nThe film follows sisters Eva and Nell (Evan Rachel Wood and Ellen Page, who also produces). After a vaguely explained occurrence, the entire western side of America has been left without power. Things are fine for the first few days, with citizens confident that electricity will be restored at any moment. Days turn into weeks, which turn into months, and society has quickly become savage and dangerous. After their father (Can-con staple Callum Keith Rennie) dies in an accident, the sisters are left alone in their isolated home, surrounded by the trees and silence. They must reevaluate their relationships with each other, as well as the world around them, and are forced to confront the fact that the world may never be the same.\nIt is not difficult to see why Rozema boarded the film. The female-led film certainly has something to say about gender in our society. Most importantly, it gives two great actresses incredible material, drawing performances and characters not too far off from films like Bergman\u2019s PERSONA and Alex Ross Perry\u2019s recent masterpiece QUEEN OF EARTH. Page and Wood are truly excellent in the film, offering what are perhaps the best performances of their entire careers.\nThe final act of the film feels a little out of place, but the events that lead up to it are really great. Nevertheless, the film presents audiences with a compelling scenario, which will surely leave them thinking for days after leaving the theatre.\nINTO THE FOREST screens at TIFF15 as part of the Special Presentations program. This is the screening information:\nSaturday, September 12, 8:30 PM, Winter Garden Theatre\nMonday, September 14, 2:15 PM, TIFF Bell Lightbox\nHow many sheep would you give Into the Forest?\nThank you for the review. I love this type of film. I am hoping it comes to Edmonton as it is a must see for me.\nBoth actresses are my favourites as well.\nMish / September 15, 2015\nGreat film and a great review. A compelling script partnered with Rozema\u2019s brilliant direction, and performances that truly grip your heart. A must see.",

Well, I don't know what kind of stuff she's into but it seems particularly apt this year. So fill your glass past half full with your favourite indulgence and make the most of this mess of a year - a Cheery Messmas, if you will.\nI was planning on being in St. John's a day earlier this year but Winter had other plans and about 90 minutes into my flight I looked out from my window seat to see a stunningly beautiful sunset above the clouds. The only problem was, the sunset should've been behind me and I wondered why were turning the wrong way. That was quickly answered by the captain telling us high crosswinds and low visibility meant landing in St. John's impossible. Back to Toronto it was and thus the return of a fine and (not so) cherished Christmas: delayed travel due to poor weather.\nA Canadian Roadtrip Sextodecimo Playlist for Americans\nImage via Lonely Planet\nYou told all your friends, \u201cIf Trump wins, I\u2019m moving to Canada!\u201d Now that day has come. You can\u2019t believe it. Thanksgiving has come and gone and now you have less than a month before the President-Elect becomes the President. So? Do you really want to go through with it or do you just hope no one remembers what you said? Perhaps this playlist will help you with your feelings as you test drive for the border. Read more \u00bb\nIt's been sent to the printers. The first batch is in the post. At 281 pages, the tenth annual Omnibus (previously The Almanac of General Knowledge) may be one of the longest ever. Here is a preview: warts, grammatical errors, mistypings and misgivings for all to see.\nMost years, this tome of timely nothings, takes a leisurely two weeks to assemble (three weekends, with the two weeks in-between). Each time I do it feels more like the end. For some reason I always finish with the Film section and usually have the TV on in the background (which may explain the typos) and a bowl of roasted chestnuts, or some chocolate or a peeled clementine or two beside me. It feels like closing up a shop for the season. A way of revisiting the year and remembering all that has happened. It was a hell of a year and it's not done yet \u2013 but I think we can all agree, we're all done with it.\nNo promises but I may make this available as either a downloadable PDF or ePub in the near future. If I do, I'll make a real effort to fix all the weird typos and grammatical errors that are driving me nuts!",

Over the weekend, the 26-year-old posted a cartoon bashing his father's adversaries. That cartoon was swiftly criticized for containing anti-Semitic imagery. The post was shared by former KKK leader David Duke. It was also praised by the neo-Nazi website The Daily Stormer. Netanyahu's son, we should say, did take down the post. But the prime minister has declined to comment on it. ...\nWell, if you can picture it, it's a row of characters. And each one dangles a kind of fishing rod in front of the next. And it seems to depict who controls the world. So the liberal, American, Jewish philanthropist George Soros is the master manipulator in the cartoon.\nYou can see the cartoon here.\nSo why is this news? Because no one is supposed to suggest that rich liberal Jews control some politicians? Because no one is supposed to get agreement from some guy who dressed up in a KKK outfit 40 years ago?\nWhat I get out of this is that some Jewish-influenced news media do not want anyone to suggest that liberal Jews control the world, and if someone does, then the Jews will destroy him.\nAfter a;;. a;; the other ethnic groups get mocked in political cartoons without such controversy.",

        "raw_content": "Christie\u2019s has announced that, as part of its June 21 Rare Watches and American Icons auction in New York City, it will be selling a Cartier Tank watch owned and worn by Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis.\nThe watch was a gift given to Jackie by her brother-in-law, Prince Stanislaw Radziwill in 1963. Jackie wore the watch regularly for years and it can be seen on her wrist in many well-known photographs.\nInscribed on the case back is \u201cStas to Jackie / 23 Feb. 63 / 2:05 AM to 9:35 PM.\u201d This marks the date, start time, and end time of a 50-mile hike that the relatives took together.\nAlong with the Tank the winner will receive a painting made by Jackie in 1963 . Below the painting of Stas and his friend Chuck Spalding on a hike, is a hand-written message nearly identical to the engraving, which reads \u201cFebruary 23, 1963 2:05 am to 9:35 pm / Jackie to Stas with love and admiration.\u201d Until now, the existence of this painting was not publicly known.\nMarilyn Monroe watch up for auction\nA diamond cocktail watch made by Blancpain and owned by Marilyn Monroe is going up for auction. Articles up for auction range from a sequined dress that was sewn closed while on her body and in which she sang Happy Birthday to President J.F. Kennedy, to a tiny jeweled cocktail watch.\nThe Blancpain timepiece was bequeathed to Lee Strasberg, Monroe\u2019s mentor, upon her death. Lee\u2019s widow, Anna Strasberg, has owned it until now. While auction executives say they are estimating the watch to retail for between $80,000 and $100,000 \u2013 it will most likely sell for a much more, especially when fans of Monroe and watch lovers get involved in the bidding.\nThe rectangular cocktail watch is standard 1930 watch that was then adorned with 71 round diamonds and two marquise diamonds.\nJorge M Lopez\nAgain out of my price range.\nMichael Maffei\nCelebrity memorabilia brings especially high bids, particularly at a prestigious auction house. The provenance of the Onassis watch is wonderful. Like you said, I was not aware of the 50-mile hike and the painting. Great article!\nVery Very Fun!!!\nInteresting enough, Mark. But just wait and see who is going to offer the highest bid to own them, and I hope you will be the first to tell us. All right?\nThank you for this piece of information!",

        "raw_content": "Wikipedia: Playing the Game\nIt is with some reluctance that I write again upon a subject on which I may already have written too much, to wit, Wikipedia and especially those who identify themselves as Wikipedians. These otherwise inoffensive folk have evolved a belief system that encourages them to accept error when they cannot deny it.\nLet\u2019s pause here for just a moment to consider error. I hope my friends at Merriam-Webster will not object if I conflate two senses of the word in their dictionary:\ner\u2022ror, n an act or condition of ignorant or imprudent\u2026deviation from truth or accuracy\nIt is not too much to claim that the whole intellectual history of mankind has focused on the avoidance of error or, failing that, the identification and removal of it. Of course, as we are human, this very enterprise has been rife with error. Hence the development of ever more reliable methods to the agreed end, so that there might occur fewer errors in the pursuit of fewer errors. Of these methods, the scientific has been by far the most productive, precisely because it explicitly incorporates means of detecting error.\nWe have been pretty well agreed that error is bad.\nA recent article in the online version of the newspaper Haaretz noted a number of errors in Wikipedia\u2019s coverage of topics involving the state of Israel. The official response was this:\nSue Gardner, the executive director of the Wikimedia Foundation, which runs Wikipedia\u2026told Haaretz that she is \u201cquite comfortable\u201d with the mistakes on the Web site.\nThat attitude would be astonishing, jaw-dropping, if it hadn\u2019t become so familiar over the past few years. That we have all become to some degree inured to it is just one of its insidious effects. You may have read recently about the fellow in Ireland who inserted a spurious quotation into a Wikipedia article and expressed (feigned, would be my guess) amazement to see it picked up by newspapers around the world. This sort of thing ought by now to rate as a dog-bites-man kind of story, yet the journalists who so lazily used Wikipedia as a source had not learned anything from the many similar incidents that preceded it.\nA fellow called Mathieu O\u2019Neil, described as a researcher at the Australian National University, has just published an essay in the online English-language edition of Le Monde Diplomatique defending Wikipedia against the charge that it systematically disdains expertise. It begins with this patently false historical premise:\nThe internet was invented by \u201chackers\u201d \u2013 computer engineers and students influenced by the counter-culture, and therefore resistant to traditional forms of authority and hierarchy.\nDoubters are invited to Google for images on such names as Licklider, Kleinrock, Engelbart, Cerf, and Kahn. Note the signs of counterculture: short hair, suits, narrow dark ties. Yes, Vint Cerf has a beard, but it\u2019s very neatly trimmed.\nMr. O\u2019Neil reviews the argument that in Wikipedia, as on the Internet more generally, a new form of expertise has replaced the traditional one, which is said to have consisted merely of credentials. This new expertise is a diffuse sort of thing. It may be \u201cthe average opinion of participants,\u201d or it may be \u201cthe automated aggregation of multiple individual choices,\u201d or it may be something that is \u201cno longer embodied in a person but in a process.\u201d In any case it has something to do with this \u201cwisdom of crowds\u201d that we hear so much about lately. Thoreau had an idea about the wisdom of crowds: \u201cAny man more right than his neighbors constitutes a majority of one already.\u201d\n(This \u201cwisdom of crowds\u201d notion is modeled on marketplace behavior, where indeed a multitude of opinions are averaged into prices; but these are opinions on matters of taste and preference, not of fact.)\nMr. O\u2019Neil dutifully looks at some of Wikipedia\u2019s more notorious failures and, like most fundamentally sympathetic observers, gives far more credit than is due in mentioning that these little messes have been cleaned up quite promptly upon being aired in the press. Having paid his on-the-other-hand dues, he leaves us in no doubt that he pretty much buys the Wiki argument. But then his essay is not actually about Wikipedia but about the possibility of adapting what he takes to be Wikipedia\u2019s strengths \u2013 its ability to recruit thousands of eager participants, to develop a spontaneous bureaucracy, to evolve standards in an irreproachably democratic way \u2013 to political organization. On that question I have no opinion.\nBut, like those journalists, Mr. O\u2019Neil has not learned anything from the short history of the encyclopedia that anyone can edit. For example, he has not learned that it is not actually an encyclopedia. Yes, it has that -pedia suffix, and yes, the Wikipedians often refer to it as an encyclopedia. But then they often deny that it is one; they tend to do this when error is pointed out to them, as Ms. Gardner did in calling it \u201cjust another mainstream news medium.\u201d Sometimes Wikipedia is a collection of informative articles; sometimes it is simply a collection of links to other sites. It is an emergent, protean thing of the mind, of the believing mind that can hold two contrary positions at once: one for fellow believers, the other for the gentiles.\nToward the end of his piece Mr. O\u2019Neil writes that \u201cthe aim of an encyclopedia is truth.\u201d I don\u2019t doubt that many Wikipedians entertain just such a grandiose view of their work. It is interesting to contrast with that view the principle expressed by William Smellie, the editor of the First Edition of the Encyclop\u00e6dia Britannica, in his Preface to that work:\nUtility ought to be the principal intention of every publication. Wherever this intention does not plainly appear, neither the books nor their authors have the smallest claim to the approbation of mankind.\nIt is precisely that idea of utility, of serviceability, that is missing from every apologia for Wikipedia, and Mr. O\u2019Neil\u2019s is no exception. These defenses are invariably about the process, about the experience, about the \u201ccommunity\u201d; in short, they are about the players, those who play the Encyclopedia Game in preference (or maybe in addition) to Grand Theft Auto or Guitar Hero. And the game is about compiling \u201cediting\u201d points and rising through the ranks and being empowered to pass judgment on other would-be \u201ceditors\u201d and being invited to Wikimania and, simply, being an insider in something. There is no mention of an imagined user, that ordinary human being who is curious about some subject and would like some reliable information about it. This seeker, perhaps attracted by that oh-so-innocent -pedia, is not interested in what a Wikipedia article may someday become as the result of some statistical averaging of opinions, and he is most certainly not interested in the politics of having one\u2019s way in Wikiland. He just has a question, and he would like a good answer. He would simply like a resource that is useful \u2013 to him.\nIf the poor fellow happens to recognize an error and brings it to public notice, the response of the Wikipedians \u2013 as I know from observation and from personal experience \u2013 will be one or more of these:\n1. You should have fixed it yourself.\n2. You don\u2019t get it.\n3. That\u2019s just your opinion.\n4. There are errors in Britannica, too.\nA moment\u2019s meditation should suffice for the reader to conclude that none of these is really responsive to the complaint.\nI take it for granted that there is much content in Wikipedia that is accurate, balanced, and useful. It\u2019s just that, in the overall picture, it is only circumstantially so, having somehow avoided the fond attentions of the Wikipedians.\nThe disappointment is in learning that so many journalists, those seekers of the facts, have not learned better by now. Fellows, if I don\u2019t care about the answer, I can look it up myself.\nDilbert comic strip, May 8, 2009\nCarol the Secretary: \u201cMy first baby weighted 12 pounds.

        "raw_content": "School Dumps ALL Paper-based Books (\u201cBooks? Books? We Don\u2019t Need No Steenking Books\u201d)\nRobert McHenry - September 30, 2009\nMy son sent me a link the other day to an article in the Boston Globe about a school in Massachusetts that is getting rid of all the books in the library and going all-electronic, all-digital, all-pixellated. All 20,000 books are out; the headmaster says they just take up too much space. (My son, I should explain for the benefit of those who don\u2019t have one, knows exactly how to push my buttons.)\nYou can imagine the school\u2019s problem: Here\u2019s this big room that would be perfectly usable for something really nifty except that it\u2019s crammed full of these, whaddyacallems, books. Dusty old things, heavy, dark, and voraciously space-consuming. It doesn\u2019t take a genius to see the solution.\nThey are spending $500,000 \u2013 yes, that\u2019s one half of a million simoleons \u2013 on a \u201clearning center\u201d to replace the library. Now, as I recall, a lot of schools created learning centers, or alternatively \u201cmedia centers,\u201d back in the \u201890s for a lot less. The average cost was probably about fifty cents, the price of a little plastic sign reading \u201cLearning Center\u201d to stick up by the door where the \u201cLibrary\u201d sign had previously adhered.\nOf that half-a-mil, $42,000 will go for three huge flat-screen television screens to display \u201cdata from the Internet.\u201d There was a time, also back in the \u201890s, when \u201cdata from the Internet\u201d sounded pretty seriously cool. That didn\u2019t last even as long as the dancing Jedi kid. Nowadays it means lolcats, FaceBook, naughty YouTube videos, or \u2013 if the headmaster is watching \u2013 a page from Wikipedia.\n\u201cWhen I look at books, I see an outdated technology,\u201d says the headmaster.\nWhat does he see when he looks at the \u201cMona Lisa\u201d? Medieval chemistry?\nHe goes on to explain: \u201cWe see this as a natural way to shape emerging trends and optimize technology.\u201d I have read that sentence a good many times, and if it means anything at all I\u2019ll eat a book. Every word is familiar to me, and the grammar is correct, and the tone is upbeat, but I cannot squeeze one drop of sense from it. I note also that there is no shadow of a hint of an allusion to students or to education. It follows, I suppose, that the headmaster was born to his job.\nThe masterstroke, however, is this: They are giving away the 20,000 books to other schools and libraries in the area. \u201cHere, guys, unfortunately poorer than we; have some outmoded technology.\u201d Class is alive and well in New England.\nI don\u2019t know how many books the Gutenbergians have made available, nor do I know how many are accessible via the Kindle or Sony reading machines. Quite likely, though, it is fewer than the 20,000 that the libr-, excuse me, Learning Center, is tossing. But that\u2019s going to work out, it seems, because the budget also calls for just 18 such readers for a student body of about 445. The expectation is, then, that at any given time no more than 4% of the students will wish or need to be looking at a book. If that seems low to you, especially for an expensive preparatory school, then you\u2019re just as much a fuddy-duddy as I am. But you can see why those damned books seemed like a waste of space.\nBut \u2013 hold onto your hats \u2013 \u201cstudents at Cushing say they look forward to the new equipment, and the brave new world they\u2019re ushering in,\u201d not to mention that cappuccino machine.\nWell, yes; and who could possibly be better judges than the students?\nPosted in Arts & Entertainment, Education, History & Society, Technology",

        "raw_content": "On day three of our trip we began the day by visiting an indoor/ covered gourmet market called Les Halles de Lyon- Paul Bocuse. It was named after the famous chef, Paul Bocuse who is a legendary chef in France. This market has some of the best chefs around including several Michelin star rated chefs. Today we were able to walk around, taste and experience some of Lyon\u2019s specialities and French cuisine in general.\nSome of the food we tasted included macaroons, which are a dessert cookie. Then we tasted quenelles which are a Lyonnaise speciality. They are similar to a gnocchi and can be eaten plain or eaten with a sauce. Quenelles are made with flour, cream, egg, butter, salt and pepper. Specifically, we tried ones with sesame seeds. Next, we tried foie gras. Many of us have never tried this before and it was quite an experience. Foie gras is ground up duck liver, and we tried it on a piece of bread.\nThen we visited a cheese shop, where we tasted a delicious cheese Lyonnaise speciality called, Cervelle De Canut. This is a soft cheese with garlic, peppers and other herbs. This is one of the few pasteurized cheeses in France. Although you may find pasteurized cheeses in France, it is not common. Most often you can find raw cheeses or heated cheeses. Some raw cheeses we saw include Pallasse Beaujolaise. Raw cheese in French is called \u201clait cru\u201d. Heated cheeses, called \u201clait thermise\u201d, are another type of cheese that is lightly heated but not completely pasteurized. An example of this is called Tomme de Savioe. The Cervelle de Canut was a very popular choice in our class! We learned quickly that next time we should BYOB (bring your own baguette) due to the fact that we ran out of bread more quickly than we ran out of cheese.\nWe also were lucky enough to visit one other shop, where we tasted two different sausages. One beef based and one pork based sausage known as Rosette and Saucisson de Lyon, respectively. Although we were unable to visit them all, there were 60 shops total in the market with a variety of meat, cheese, dessert, and seafood! Our tour guide Anne was a knowledgable individual who taught us more than we anticipated to learn about French food and the effect food has on French culture. Anne quoted a common saying of the French, \u201clive simple and lead a good life\u201d, and she taught us how to do so at this market.\nFor the second half of our day we went on a historical tour of Old Lyon. During the two hour tour we learned much about the architecture of buildings through the 14th, 15th and 16th century. Specifically, we learned about how the architecture did and did not change through the periods of time and why certain changes occurred. In order to learn about the architecture we walked through the traboule, or the courtyards of buildings to look at the arches and stairways to compare the differences between each century.\nAfter the walking tour of Old Lyon, we visited La Basilique de la Vierge Dor\u00e9e, the Cathedral of the Golden Virgin. Here, we were able to see the amazing architecture of the cathedral. The cathedral is located above the city of Lyon and because of that we were lucky to have an amazing view of the entire city.\n*This post was co-written by Food Microbiology students Haele Dixon and Danielle Vogel.\nTags:Albany NY cheese food microbiology French Lyon France macaroons the college of saint rose travel\n\u2190 Food Microbiology \u2013 Lyon, France (Part #1)",

The armed forces have been implicated in a number of human rights abuse cases.\nOn Wednesday, President-elect Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador announced a security plan that would also lean on the military. He proposed forming a National Guard initially made up of elements from the navy and army police as well as federal police.\nAfter drawing a raft of criticism, especially from human rights groups, Lopez Obrador sought on Thursday to distinguish between his plan and his predecessors'. He said congress would seek a constitutional reform to allow it.\n\"Because I don't want to use the army and the navy like they have been doing for public safety work if they are not authorized to carry out those functions,\" Lopez Obrador said.\nBut the international human rights group Amnesty International said the Supreme Court's decision should cause Lopez Obrador to rethink his security plan.",

        "raw_content": "There are many different types of orthodontic braces available. Each type, though made of varying components, realigns the teeth to enhance chewing, biting, and aesthetics. Available styles of orthodontic appliances allow the wearer a great amount of flexibility, control and convenience.\nThe two main types of braces available are removable and fixed devices. As the names suggest, removable devices can be moved into and out of the mouth at any time, while fixed devices are both applied and removed by the orthodontist. Though fixed dental braces are often used to correct severe alignment issues, removable devices are popular because they afford the wearer more control over their treatment.\nTraditional braces are often more affordable and expedient than any other kind of braces \u2013 particularly in the case of a severe malocclusion (bad bite). During application of fixed braces, individual brackets are glued to each tooth on the arch and a thin wire connects the brackets. Traditional fixed braces work on the premise that consistent pressure is applied to the teeth. The appliances must modified by an orthodontist at routine appointments to continue exerting appropriate pressure.\nThere are several different types of brackets available, including metal, ceramic and clear. The metal brackets tend to be the least problematic structurally, but they are also the most visible. Ceramic brackets are equally effective and less visible, but they have a tendency to stain if not cared for properly. Clear brackets are the least visible, but generally cost more and are prone to damage.\nThe following treatment options are available for patients who choose fixed orthodontics:\nLingual braces are almost invisible, as they are bonded to the back of the teeth, but the initial affixation is slightly more complex. Lingual braces are comprised of special custom-made brackets, which are connected by a wire. Many wearers prefer the reduced aesthetic impact with these braces, but some report an initial impairment in speech.\nThe Damon System is a more discreet alternative to traditional fixed braces. Light wires are initially used to align the teeth, and are replaced with heavier wires as the teeth become straighter. Traditional braces use elastic rings to hold the wires in place, whereas the creators of the Damon System have replaced these rings with tiny sliding doors.\nThe biggest advantage of this replacement is the reduction of friction and discomfort. A reduced amount of friction allows this system of self-ligating braces to correct malocclusions quickly, and the lighter wires cause less stress to the periodontal ligaments. The Damon System is less noticeable and quicker, but can be costlier than traditional fixed systems.\nSureSmile is a hi-tech system that claims to straighten teeth in a far shorter time than traditional braces. To determine the precise position and angle of each tooth, an OraScanner and/or Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) is used to take a three dimensional picture of the teeth. The archwire for the braces is created by a computer system and used to link the orthodontic brackets. The archwire is activated by body heat. The result is quicker treatment and more precise alignment. The SureSmile system is technologically advanced and effective, but can be among the more expensive forms of fixed braces.\nSix Month Smiles is designed to greatly impact aesthetics, as opposed to function. Instead of moving every tooth into alignment, this system focuses mainly on the teeth that are visible when smiling and speaking. Six Month Smiles utilizes small archwires and tooth-colored brackets to make the braces as unobtrusive as possible. Contrary to popular belief, more pressure is not added to move the teeth quickly. These cosmetic braces are popular, effective and can cost less than other technologically advanced systems.\nThe Invisalign system is a series of removable aligning trays, which gradually reposition the teeth into the correct alignment. Generally, aligning trays are worn for two weeks before they are discarded for trays which fit the new positioning of the teeth. Invisalign trays can be easily removed for eating and social functions, but must be worn as much as possible for expedient results. Invisalign is a convenient type of orthodontics, but requires commitment from the wearer.\nClear, removable braces are generally recommended for minor to moderate alignment problems. Other popular brands of removable orthodontics include ClearCorrect and MTM\u00ae Clear Aligner.\nIf you have questions or concerns about any type of braces, please contact your dental care provider.",

Having married John F. Kennedy in the 1950s when he was a United States Senator, Jackie Kennedy burst into the national public eye in 1960 as she first followed her husband on the campaign trail and ultimately became \"First Lady\" to the President of the United States. Jackie Kennedy in the early 1960s represented youth, glamour and sophistication. With the assassination of President Kennedy in November, 1963 she became a grieving widow with two young children. Five years later when she married Greek shipping tycoon Aristotle Onassis, she shocked the world as the \"jet-setting\" Jackie O. She continued to evolve in the public spotlight as she became a career woman, book editor and grandmother before her untimely death in 1994. This video is sure to appeal to anyone interested in wealth, power and Presidential history. This program is hosted by Peter Graves. Full screen in color. Released in 1998. Runtime 50 minutes.",

Cain asked, \"Am I my brother's keeper?\" (Genesis 4:9). Cain didn't want to feel responsible for his brother because he had only been looking out for himself. God wants us to look out for each other.\nWhat is our responsibility to our brothers or sisters? When Jesus was here on earth, many of His parables focussed on how we treat one another. With all of these examples it should be clear that we are responsible not only for our own salvation and well being, but also for the other members of our community. Jesus even told the disciples that it was a grave sin to lead someone else into sin.\nSo how do we go about being good neighbors? The Church has given us some guidelines for this:\n1) feed the hungry\n2) give drink to the thirsty\n3) clothe the naked\n4) shelter the homeless\n5) visit the Imprisoned\n6) care for the sick\n7) bury the dead\nand the Spiritual Works of Mercy:\n1) admonish the sinner,\n3) counsel the doubtful ,\n4) comfort the sorrowful,\n5) bear wrongs patiently,\n6) forgive all injuries,\n7) pray for the living and the dead\nHow do we put these works of mercy into practice in our lives? Who exactly is our neighbor? Does this mean we should all be working with the homeless and hungry in out towns? I'm too young, how can I do these things? These are all valid questions. You don't have to go looking for people to care for, God will send people to you. Keep your eyes open.\nIt may be the person on your bus who is being bullied every day, and you sit by and let it happen. It could be a close friend who has to make a major moral decision, and is asking for your help. It could be someone who is in trouble and needs you to help them figure out how to tell their parents.\nPerhaps tomorrow you could pack an extra sandwich, and offer to share it with the boy who never brings any lunch. Invite your friend whose parents are getting a divorce to spend time with your family. When someone asks what you think they should do, and there is a morally right choice, be firm in leading them to do the right thing. In short, be a friend every day in every way that God presents you the opportunity to serve Him.\n++++++ Free e-Mail +++++++++++++++++++\nYou can offer a free e-mail utility to virtually anyone who has a IBM compatible computer and a modem, without them having to join an on-line service. Over a million people are currently using a free e-mail utility from a company called Juno. Juno works by loading/downloading e-mail messages via local access numbers and ships the messages across the internet. Juno gets their funding via advertisements that you see when you log on and are displayed in the upper right hand corner of the program when you use it. (Juno will not give out your e-mail address.) I've used Juno extensively and haven't heard anything bad about it. Although the ads are a little irritating. Personally, I may well continue to use it even after I subscribe to an on-line service, so that I don't have to keep track of who I've given my e-mail address out to and then have to notify them each time I change addresses.\nYou can get a copy of Juno by: 1) Ask a friend who uses Juno for a copy. 2) Get a free copy off the internet at http://www.juno.com/ or ask a friend to download a copy for you. 3) Call Juno at 1-800-654-JUNO and have them mail you a copy.They do ask $8.82 for handing and shipping to mail a copy. Actually that's probably not a bad price for unlimited free e-mail.\nSaint of the Month: ST. JOHN BOSCO by Joseph Roalef\nSt. John Bosco is the patron saint of young people. He spent his entire life trying to help young people get to heaven. His motto was \"Give me souls, take away the rest\". He knew that God made us to know Him, love Him, and serve Him, to get to heaven. If we don't do these things then we are defeating God's purpose for us. Heaven is our true home and Jesus has prepared a special place for each of us! What a good and loving Father God is! John Bosco loved God the Father very much because his own father died when he was only 2.\nWhen he was 9 years old, he had his first of many visions from heaven. John understood that to do good for so many young people he needed to study and become a priest. But his brother Anthony, who wanted John to become a farmer instead, threw John's religion books away and belted him! It got to be so bad that John's mother had to send him away from home so he could study without interference. While he was in school, John started what he called \"The Happy Club\", because he wanted to teach others to be happy living their Catholic faith.\nJohn was ordained a priest when he was 26 and was then called Don Bosco (\"Don\" means \"Father\" in Italian.) Now Don Bosco was finally able to dedicate himself full time to the boys he had seen in his dream twenty years earlier. He went to look for them in the streets of Turin, Italy. He was shocked at what he saw! Many teenagers were committing serious crimes and, when caught, were put in jail or sometimes even executed!\nDon Bosco started a group of Priests, Brothers, Sisters, and lay people to help him in his work for young people. They are now called the Salesians of Don Bosco, the name Salesian being derived from St. Francis De Sales.\nSo, what's your business? Selling life insurance? Avon or Mary Kay Cosmetics?

        "raw_content": "While the Navy is grumping a lot over upgrading its force, something has happened over on the USCG side of the house. Digging around for change in the sofa, picking up a few items their neighbors left on the curb, dropping a few things off at the neighborhood mechanic & body shop, and a little good luck - the USCG has some nice new kit, especially in the air.\nIt is a good time to be a USCG aviator;\nCraig Collins has a nice summary.\nMuch public attention has been paid to the Coast Guard\u2019s new generation of surface assets \u2013 the Legend-class national security cutters (NSCs), the Sentinel-class fast response cutters (FRCs), and the Heritage-class offshore patrol cutters (OPCs) \u2013 but perhaps less so their counterparts in the air.\nThe new generation of the Coast Guard\u2019s long-range surveillance and transport aircraft, for example, the HC-130J Super Hercules, is a nose-to-tail overhaul of the previous generation of HC-130Hs, with new Rolls-Royce turboprop engines, composite scimitar propellers, and digital avionics. These upgrades have increased the range of the aircraft by 40 percent and its top speed by 15 percent, while decreasing its takeoff distance by 15 percent. But the aircraft\u2019s most important enhancement may be its suite of command, control, communications, computers, intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (C4ISR) components, which combine radio and digital transmission of voice and data.\nOver the past decade, the Coast Guard has been phasing out its older HU-25 Guardian, a high-speed medium-range aircraft that was finally retired from service in 2014. Its replacement, the HC-144 Ocean Sentry, was phased in at Coast Guard air stations beginning in 2009. The Ocean Sentry was a marked improvement, offering the Coast Guard the ability to remain on scene and track targets for longer periods of time \u2013 up to 10 hours \u2013 with improved sensor capability and room for more passengers. ...\nThe Coast Guard fleet of 102 Dolphin helicopters, meanwhile, is in the final segment of a similar incremental upgrade, a transformation into MH-65E short-range recovery helicopters. The -E series features new radar, EO/IR sensors, and a CAAS cockpit similar to the Jayhawk\u2019s.By 2014, the service had acquired 18 Ocean Sentries, and the HC-144 was logging more flight hours annually than any other Coast Guard aircraft.\nThe Coast Guard\u2019s original plan called for a fleet of 36 Ocean Sentries \u2013 but this plan was altered when Congress, in the National Defense Authorization Act of 2014, directed the service to cease its HC-144 program and instead acquire and missionize 14 C-27J Spartan aircraft, to be transferred from the U.S. Air Force. The Ocean Sentry and the Spartan are twin-engine turboprops, similar in configuration \u2013 according to Kimball, the Spartan is faster, with greater range, endurance, and lift capability \u2013 and will play similar roles in medium-range surveillance.\n...beginning in 2007, the Coast Guard began an overhaul of its 42 Jayhawk helicopters, converting them from HH-60Js into multimission MH-60Ts.

        "raw_content": "Remembering Johnny Pruitt . . .\nIt doesn't seem like 54 years since I was a ninth-grade classmate of Johnny Pruitt.\nWhile going over some old photo's to put together a DVD-Video for a Jefferson High reunion, I came upon an old photo of myself and Johnny. You talk about bringing back some memories . . . now this opened the floodgates.\nI guess Johnny and I spent about as much time together during our fifth thru eighth grade years as any kids could and not live in the same house. We dug caves on the McGinnis creek/branch, swung from trees on the banks and even built a Davy Crockett fort in the woods on the back of the Ray Williamson property. It was Johnny that taught me to shoot a jump shot that would eventually help me make the Jefferson High School basketball team. I must have played thousands of games of \"first to 20 points wins \" basketball games against Johnny. I don't think I ever beat him. He was about three inches taller than me and had incredibly long arms and big hands. I have always believed that if he had stayed in school at Jefferson he would have been the best basketball player to ever come out of the school up to that time.\nAfter making the team as a freshman, he dropped out of school and went to work for John Godfrey at his Jefferson service station. He had grown to about 6'4\" and could dunk the ball with either hand. Coach Fred Herren spent a great deal of time trying to get him to return to school and continue his promising basketball career. Johnny had bought a car and had committments that he felt necessitated him having a job. For this reason, he never returned to school. He attended many of the high school basketball games and we remained close friends.\nJohnny was one of our \"Porterville Pack\" that included his brother Jimmy, Scottie Brooks, Mack Snelling, James and Joel Stringer, Neal Massey, Buster Covington, Doug Shumake, Harold Ward, Tom Williamson and Monroe Bennett.\nWe had built a football/softball field behind the Williamson property where kids from all over Jefferson would play in our Sunday evening games. We even built goal posts on both ends of the field. It was a close-knit group of friends that even had a wrestling pitt with saw-dust and ropes over on the Brooks property. It was always Johnny and I against whomever. Many times we would manage to whip the older boys. We made a good team.\nIn June of 1962, Johnny Pruitt went swimming over at the city pool. He made a dive off the high board and after exiting the water he was so dizzy he collapsed beside the pool. He was taken up to Dr. Adams office and thought to have an inner ear infection. Johnny spent the next two days in bed as he got more sick by the moment.\nI visited with Johnny for awhile on the day before he was taken to the Commerce Hospital in very serious condition. We talked about the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets, his favorite team, and various other insignificant trivia that seemed to always pop up when we were together. As I walked out the door of his house, I remember saying, \"get yourself well and we'll go over to the gym and shoot a few baskets.\" He smiled as he told me he would like to do that.\nThe next day Johnny Pruitt died. He was 17 years old. Tests would show that Johnny had meningitis and that had led directly to his untimely demise. Johnny was buried over at Academy Baptish Church where we had attended services for most of our childhood.\nHe doesn't have much family left, so I guess I am the only person that ever brings him to mind. I still remember him very well.\nI have always believed that if classmate Michael Rankin, who moved to Marion County in 1957 and became an all-state player at 6'5\" ( Miss Irene Rankin was his aunt ), Dan Cagle, whose dad was our high school Superintendent before moving to North Carolina after his freshman year and Johnny had teamed with Gary Brooks and myself in the senior class of 1964, we could have won Jefferson a state basketball championship.\nSuch is the case when you enjoy history. Memories pop up at times that are deeply ingrained in your mind. Johnny Pruitt popped up just a few days past and those memories were of a fun-time and, at the end, a not so much fun-time. That not so much fun-time, unfortunately, is also the price we sometimes have to pay to enjoy all the good memories.\nCecil Buffington and Johnny Pruitt ~ 1958\nClick on below photo to enlarge",

I like the element of chance where you just see what iTunes is offering on special, and find something among that, which is what led me to this intriguing little number. This is the first feature by Juan Carlos Fresnadillo, and it showed so much promise he was recruited to direct the sequel 28 Weeks Later, which was pretty good. And I liked that no one on the IMDb could really explain what it was about, which is often intriguing. So I had the pleasant experience of beginning a movie while knowing almost nothing of what I was in for.\nWe open at a casino where a man is repeatedly winning at roulette. This catches the attention of this casino worker who calls this fellow Federico, who comes up and touches the man, as if by mistake. The man then loses, and Federico goes to a slot machine\u2014and wins. The idea being that the oter guy had Luck, and Federico has the ability to steal it from him. This will recall the film The Cooler, in which William Macy played a guy whose luck was so bad he was hired by casinos to \u201ccool\u201d the luck of winning patrons.\nDownstairs in a bunker-type place is Max Von Sydow as \u201cThe Jew,\u201d who wears a mask so no one can see his face except Federico, whom he saved from a fire. It seems that Federico wants to leave his employ, which Max isn\u2019t too happy about. Federico begs Max not to touch him, but Max hugs him [in an amazing-looking reflective elevator while horror music plays], saying \u201cYour gift I discovered, and your gift I take away.\u201d Some thugs drive him away, commenting on how they can touch him now without getting jinxed. They leave him on the side of the road and then\u2014seven years later!\nThis guy Tomas Sanz is found, and we see people cut open his shirt and reveal money strapped to his body. He wakes in the hospital, and a woman there holds a gun on him. He is the only survivor of a plane crash that killed 237 people, so you can imagne some might consider him fairly lucky. Federico gets him out of the hospital, past the woman, Sara, who is a cop pursuing Tomas, who robbed a bank just before the plane crash. Federico tells Tomas he must never touch him, and takes him to a secret game in which three people sit in a room with a giant insect and the winner is the one it lands on. Yeah, these people have some unusual pursuits.\nMeanwhile, Sara is honing closer in on Tomas. She has a large scar across her chest from a car accident that killed her husband and child. So one could say that she is lucky, in her way. And around now you start to have discussion of stealing luck from people, or transferring it from one person to another.\nNow in here is where what was happening became rather obscure to me. First, there is another game, this time where the contestants are blindfolded and to run in a forest. The one who doesn\u2019t hit a tree is the winner. Tomas finds that his ex-girlfriend, Ana, has somehow been \u201cwon\u201d in this contest, because he lost at the tree game, and will be killed. He finds his way back, and it all results in a visit to Max to play the special suicide game. Max, it seems, is one of the super-lucky guys, as he was apparently the only survivor of a concentration camp [how \u201clucky\u201d he is to live in a bunker and play Russian roulette for a living is up to you to decide]. Anyway it goes on, I was a tiny bit lost, but even so it seems like the film loses focus and becomes a little arbitrary, and it ends.\nAlthough it ultimately peters out a little bit, or becomes incomprehensible, it\u2019s still a very intriguing topic, has some interesting wrinkles, is populated by compelling characters, and has some fascinating situations. And like I said, it all looks like a glossy magazine. What I found most compelling, aside from the overall idea and its strange wrinkles as expressed here, are compelling character moments, like when Sara interviews Tomas\u2019 ex-girlfriend, and she says the reason she didn\u2019t get on the plane [that crashed] was that Tomas told her \u201cI don\u2019t love you anymore.\u201d Sara then imagines telling her husband \u201cI don\u2019t love you anymore,\u201d which causes him to pull over\u2014and avoid the crash that killed him and their son. It\u2019s just a momentary imagining, but it\u2019s rich and stays with you. There are a lot of little moments like that in the film, which is what makes me say that it\u2019s definitely worth watching. As a whole it may not be much, but the characters and tiny details are the elements ultimately more than the sum of their parts.\nYes, it\u2019s all fascinating and gorgeous to look at\u2026 even if it does start to wander.\nTia's got a Star Case\nRarely have so many given so much to create a total piece of shit",

        "raw_content": "Madrid\u2019s Urban Ecology Innovations \u2013 Part I\nThe world is rapidly urbanizing. While the global urban population grew to nearly 4 billion people in 2014, it is predicted to increase to 6.5 billion people by 2050 (McDonnell & MacGregor-Fors, 2016). Moreover, according to recent estimates developed by the United Nations, two out of three of the world\u2019s inhabitants will live in urban areas by 2050 (Haase et al., 2018). As the global population continues to grow and become more urbanized, city governments and policymakers from around the world will need to address many new challenges associated with this growth.\nUrban areas are being confronted with mounting threats related to climate change, pollution, suburban sprawl, changing demographic characteristics, economic fluctuations, social inequality and population growth that exceeds infrastructure development (McPhearson et al., 2016). However, the common challenges that cities are facing also present the opportunity to develop innovative solutions to address these challenges. The following paper will evaluate how the city of Madrid has worked to employ a wide array of innovative strategies related to urban ecology to enhance resilience and sustainability.\nThe Rise of Urban Ecology\nIn the 1990s, the field of urban ecology starts to emerge as a discipline that was focused on the human and ecological dimensions of urban areas (McDonnell & MacGregor-Fors, 2016). However, urban ecology has since grown into a multidisciplinary field that now also encompasses urban planning, design, and socioeconomic principles to help advance resilience and sustainability within cities (McPhearson et al., 2016). As complex systems that integrate social, economic and physical processes, cities can serve as critical drivers of change across a global scale.\nThe way in which urban infrastructure and development are planned plays a primary role in the ability of a city to adapt to new growth and changes within the environment (Alberti et al., 2018). Many of the world\u2019s urban dwellers are now advocating for the development of sustainable cities that incorporate the principles of urban ecology to become healthier, more vibrant and resilient (McDonnell & MacGregor-Fors, 2016).\nDecades of Urban Sprawl\nMadrid has made significant progress in recent years to increase the livability of local neighborhoods and support region-wide sustainability initiatives. However, during the past two decades, the city has physically expanded across the landscape at a pace that has vastly exceeded population growth. During the 1990s, the amount of urbanized land within Madrid and the surrounding region grew by 50%, while the population grew at a rate of only 5.16% during the same period (European Environmental Agency, 2006).\nBeginning in the 1980s, the landscapes surrounding Madrid started to become increasingly suburbanized as a result of weak regulatory policies, a rapidly growing economy and the development of infrastructure to support higher levels of vehicular mobility. These socioeconomic drivers have contributed to the increase in sprawl within Madrid and the surrounding region. While proponents of sprawl claim that it fulfils residential preferences for expansive and affordable homes, supporters of Smart Growth and New Urbanism argue that sprawl contributes to car dependency, a rise in traffic congestion, a loss of open space, increased air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions, and adverse impacts to public health (G\u00f3mez-Antonio et al., 2015).\nToday, as Madrid strives to move forward with progressive policies to support the principles of Smart Growth and New Urbanism, the city is still dealing with the aftermath from decades of weak land-use regulations and the outward expansion of low-density development.\nSustainability Initiatives in Madrid\nAs the capital city and largest metropolitan area in Spain, Madrid has become an example of an urbanized region that has strived to overcome its sprawl-related challenges by incorporating the principles of urban ecology within its city planning framework. Within the past decade, Madrid has developed numerous plans and initiatives to move towards a more sustainable model of urban development. In order to support a resilient and sustainable future, the city has adopted ambitious renewable energy and climate change mitigation plans, initiatives related to green infrastructure, restrictions on vehicular traffic and other planning mechanisms to promote sustainable urbanism.\nIn recent years, Madrid has become well-known within the international community for the progress that it has made to improve sustainability within its urban boundary. In 2008, the city released its Plan for the Sustainable Use of Energy and Climate Change Prevention as a coordinated effort to meet ambitious greenhouse gas emissions abatement targets (City of Madrid, 2008). Furthermore, after unveiling its Plan A in 2017, Madrid became widely known as the European city with the most robust proposal to improve air quality and combat climate change (O\u2019Sullivan, 2018).\nIn addition to developing plans to address air pollution and climate change, Madrid has also focused efforts to ensure that the city continues to grow in a way that supports higher levels of livability for all its citizens. Programs related to equitable community development have been implemented to support sustainable transportation systems, access to natural areas and public parks and the inclusion of green infrastructure improvements.\n[In Part II of this three-part series, Marshall explores Madrid\u2019s attempts at supporting sustainable transportation systems, green infrastructure, and open space planning.

This will probably be classified as a very John Lewis ad but actually it's a very understated story which is fundamentally about a little boy who gets a piano and how it changes the course of his life.\n\"We've been doing John Lewis Christmas ads for some time now and what's on my mind is how we move it on creatively but hold on to the heart of what makes them special\", said Craig Inglis, the customer director at John Lewis & Partners.\nThe closing line on screen as Sir Elton plays reads: \"Some gifts are more than just a gift\".\nSir Elton John appears in this year's advert - \"The Boy and the Piano\" - in which he looks back at his life and career while performing \"Your Song\".\nAfter much anticipation, the 2018 John Lewis Christmas advert is here and it's going to give you ALL THE FEELS.\nHe explained: \"I think Elton has enjoyed the process of making this tremendously\".\nWith the exception of the present-day opening scene featuring Sir Elton himself, actors take on the role of him at various stages of his life, while the images of the stadium based on a concert in Portland in the U.S. were entirely recreated with computer-generated imagery.\nIt's also the first time since the 1950s that pianos have been out on the shop floor at John Lewis, which is another moving touch - Christmas is all about nostalgia, after all.",

        "raw_content": "Bedford folks volunteer with Color My World to help villagers in Dominican Republic\nMarch 14, 2014 by angela@colormyworldkids.org Filed Under: Uncategorized\nFamilies living in rustic Puerto Plata, a town in the Dominican Republic, shared smiles when 17 volunteers from New Hampshire, Maine and New Mexico arrived, sweaty and thirsty, in the 90-degree, tropical weather.\nThe group of 17 volunteers was there to complete building projects and render other assistance to the villagers on the Caribbean island.\nFebruary break was put to good use by locals from Bedford and elsewhere who traveled to the island. The trip, held Feb. 22 through March 1, was deemed an eye-opener by some students in the group. They decided to spend their vacation in an impoverished town where a good deed is greatly appreciated.\nThe Bedford-based Color My World had team members in the Dominican Republic and included more than a dozen participants from three states \u2013 New Hampshire, New Mexico and Maine.\nBedford\u2019s contingent included Angela Hughes and her husband, Brian, along with their children, Chase Hughes, Noah Hughes and Elizabeth Hughes. Bedford\u2019s Brenda Devroe, an emergency room nurse at Catholic Medical Center in Manchester, joined them, along with Dillon Wright, a high school senior at the Derryfield School in Manchester.\nThe Hughes family founded Color My World. Angela Hughes, and her daughter, Elizabeth Hughes, 10, made the trip before the others arrived. They completed a scouting mission and determined the level of help needed in the village and in nearby towns.\nThe group from Color My World, an organization that annually offers volunteer trips with a hands-on twist, met Amarilis Urena, a director for the Puerto Plata venture, when they arrived. Urena welcomed the group and extended her family\u2019s hospitality.\nHughes said the U.S. volunteers also teamed up with a local grassroots organization, Dominican Starfish. The group, led by Louisa ZoBell, has previously collaborated with Color My World in raising funds for the construction of a local library.\n\u201cOn our initial visit, we selected two families that would receive new homes,\u201d Hughes said. \u201cThen, we brought the team down to help tear down and rebuild the new homes.\u201d\nShe said Color My World raised $10,000 to build the two homes. The volunteers ripped down old sheets of corrugated tin and clumps of powdering stones. Hughes said an 84-year-old woman and her grandchildren were near to tears as they realized they would be blessed with a new abode, one that was a far cry from the crumbling shanty in which they lived.\nHughes said the second home, one belonging to the Rosario family \u2013 a young family with three children \u2013 took a major effort, as the 90-degree temperatures and the ascending incline of the path to the work site took its toll in perspiration.\n\u201cOne day, our team hauled over 300 buckets of dirt up the steep hill to start the floors of the home,\u201d Hughes said. \u201cEach bucket of dirt was chipped out of the roadside and loaded into a bucket.\u201d\nOther services were rendered during the trip. Students at the Maggiolo School received a cooked lunch for more than 100 guests. The school is a haven for many Haitian refugee children whose own homes were ravaged by storms or earthquakes. Haiti occupies the west coast of the island of Hispaniola. The east coast is occupied by the Dominican Republic. Cuba is the nearest island, to the northwest.\nThe youngsters at the school indulged in more than lunch. They engaged in some artwork \u2013 painting with brushes upon canvas boards donated by Bedford business owner Debbie Ellis, owner of the Canvas Road Show, an enterprise offering socializing and painting among friends.\nThe group from Color My World also offered the youngsters a wellness and exercise class led by Dr. J. Andrew Reinfurt, of Manchester Chiropractic & Sports Injuries, and his wife, Sherri Reinfurt. Brenda Devroe, a Bedford emergency nurse at Catholic Medical Center in Manchester, distributed gifts of hygiene supplies \u2013 toothbrushes, toothpaste and bars of soap.\n\u201cI didn\u2019t realize that many families there share one toothbrush, used by all the family members,\u201d Devroe said. \u201cThey tend to use their money for food. Toothpaste is somewhat of a luxury. The children are instructed in tooth care at school but a teacher remarked that many families only have one toothbrush at home.\u201d\nThe time progressed quickly for the volunteers. They visited an abandoned chocolate production factory, where around 100 families, squatters without access to better accommodations, live in makeshift quarters. Hughes said the visit was well received.\n\u201cWe delivered food to more than 70 families,\u201d Hughes said. \u201cOur bags were filled with flour, sugar and basic cooking necessities. We also took a lot of time playing sports and games.\u201d\nThe group of volunteers took time out to hike alongside some of the 27 waterfalls in Puerto Plata. Hughes, who with her husband, Brian, spent some of their early years as missionaries in Japan. They found satisfaction in helping people there on behalf of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The couple later formed Color My World as a way of extending their commitment to help others.\nThe Color My World organization is a nonprofit focused on relieving human suffering by providing emergency response relief items and humanitarian services to those in need. It was established in 2000 by the Hughes family as a way of helping young people, college students and families become involved in service-related activities.\nThe son of Angela and Brian, Chase Hughes, 16, who attends Bishop Guertin High School, said that it was apparent to him that people living in poverty find ways to be happy. He also said he enjoyed the physicality of loading so many buckets of dirt.\n\u201cWe had to bring dirt up a hill that was super steep,\u201d Chase said. \u201cIt was hot and physically exhausting but we helped that family accomplish more in four hours than they could have done in four months.\u201d\nHis sister, Elizabeth Hughes, 10, a fourth-grader at Peter Woodbury School, does not often encounter a reason to tear down a house.\n\u201cOne of my favorite parts of the trip was actually tearing down the house and playing with the kids who were watching,\u201d Elizabeth said. \u201cWe played soccer and taught the kids how to make bracelets on a rainbow loom.\u201d\nNoah Hughes, 13, a student who is home-schooled, said he most enjoyed visiting the school.\n\u201cKids would just climb up our backs,\u201d Noah said. \u201cWe would carry them around, all morning.\u201d\nThe combination of work and play also was appreciated by Dillon Wright, of Bedford. The 16-year-old senior at the Derryfield School at one time played baseball with one of the Hughes boys. He\u2019s been a family friend ever since. He said the trip to the Dominican Republic presented him with a chance to give back to a community in need.\n\u201cThroughout the streets, there were all these little shanties,\u201d Wright said. \u201cPeople will move out and whenever others see a house is getting torn down, the entire neighborhood will gather and pull out things to use in their own house. It was very sad.\u201d\nWright intends to go on other trips sponsored by Color My World, before he heads to college to study mechanical engineering. He already has been a project manager for his school\u2019s robotics challenge program.\n\u201cI would highly recommend going on a trip to anyone willing to get their hands dirty,\u201d Wright said. \u201cIt\u2019s a way to help make someone\u2019s life better.\u201d\nColor My World is expanding its scope with increasingly frequent schedules of trips. An upcoming Nicaragua trip is scheduled for two sessions, July 7-14 and July 14-21. A Costa Rican trip is on tap from Aug. 3-10. Next year, a Dominican Republic trip is on the schedule from Feb. 14-21 and from Feb. 21-28.\nAngela Hughes, director and co-founder of Color My World, said that some of the people who go on the trips have never been exposed to the level of poverty they see at the destination.\n\u201cIt\u2019s amazing to watch the transition the volunteers go through during the first week,\u201d she said. \u201cService is addictive and you can\u2019t help but feel complete joy doing this type of service work.\u201d\nHer husband, Brian Hughes, the other co-founder, said that traveling to help people provides a chance to put life\u2019s priorities in their proper order.\n\u201cSpending our time together with our family, serving together, is a great way to spend a holiday,\u201d he said. \u201cIt\u2019s a great opportunity to help those less fortunate.\u201d\nFor more information on Color My World, visit www.colormyworldkids.org.",

        "raw_content": "Colossus Minerals Provides Update on Development Progress at Serra Pelada\nToronto, Ontario, November 30, 2010 \u2013 Colossus Minerals Inc. (the \u201cCompany\u201d or \u201cColossus\u201d) (TSX:CSI) is pleased to provide an update on development activities at the Serra Pelada Gold-Platinum-Palladium Project, the Colossus-COOMIGASP joint venture located in Para State, Brazil.\n3,500 metre underground decline in progress, 83 metres complete\nTwo Voest-Alpine roadheaders are in operation cutting the decline\nCondemnation and site preparation drilling complete; focus shifting back to exploration\nEarthworks progressing on site infrastructure including future plant site, camp site, maintenance facilities and offices\nNegotiations underway for permanent electrical power to the site\nAdvancing plans for engineering and design of mill facility\nSerra Pelada 2010 Development\nIn the first half of 2010, Serra Pelada Companhia de Desenvolvimento Mineral (\u201cSPC\u201d), the Colossus-COOMIGASP joint venture company was granted environmental and mining licenses for Serra Pelada paving the way for development activities to commence (see press releases dated April 16, 2010 and May 7, 2010). Given the difficulties in drilling the Serra Pelada orebody at tight spacing from surface, the company embarked on an ambitious underground strategy and commenced development of a 3,500 metre decline to provide underground drilling platforms and access to the orebody for evaluation and future production (see Figure 1).\nDevelopment of the portal commenced September 15, 2010 and by November 25, 2010 the portal was complete and 83 metres of the decline had been developed by Colossus personnel. The Company anticipates that the 3,500 metre development program will take 12 to 15 months to complete. Colossus has completed earthworks on other site infrastructure including a future plant site, camp site, maintenance facilities and offices. Construction of the permanent main site office was completed in October 2010 and construction of a mine maintenance facility has commenced (see Figure 2 for an overview of Serra Pelada site infrastructure).\nIn order to speed up the decline development, Colossus received delivery of two Voest-Alpine road headers in November 2010. The units are now in operation and are performing as expected with eight metres of unsupported excavation achieved in the first ten-hour shift. Rock conditions encountered to date in the decline are exceeding expectations.\nRandy Reichert, Colossus President and Chief Operating Officer commented, \u201cThe Serra Pelada Project has advanced significantly during the second half of 2010. The Project is now fully permitted, with the receipt of both the environmental and mining licenses, the underground decline development is well underway and there are over 250 employees working aggressively on all of our various development initiatives. The Project is quickly taking shape and we are looking forward to complementing our existing surface drill program with the commencement of underground drilling in the first half of 2011.\u201d\nDevelopment Milestones for 2011\nMr. Reichert continued, \u201c2011 will be a transformational year for Colossus, driven by the achievement of several important milestones squarely focused on advancing our development plans.\u201d\nConstruction of a 200-person camp commenced in early November 2010 with completion expected early in the first quarter of 2011.\nEngineering of the tailings impoundment has commenced with Golder Associates (Brazil) selected as the consultant for the engineering and site investigations, and geotechnical drilling is underway. Completion is expected in the first quarter of 2011.\nConstruction of the Phase 1 tailings dam is scheduled to start in March 2011 and is expected to be complete by the fourth quarter of 2011.\nHydrological engineering was recently completed by Australasian Groundwater and Environmental Consultants Pty Ltd (Brisbane) and dewatering of the arenites surrounding the orebody has commenced. It is anticipated that Phase 1 dewatering to a depth of 150 metres will be completed in the third quarter of 2011, with Phase 2 dewatering to a depth of 320 metres expected to be complete by the second quarter of 2012.\nNegotiations for permanent electrical power to the site are progressing with Centrais El\u00e9tricas do Par\u00e1 \u2013 S.A. \u2013 CELPA, the regional power supplier.\nPlans to advance engineering and design of a mill facility are underway.\nFigure 1: Proposed Underground Development\nFigure 2: Mine Plan and Infrastructure",

        "raw_content": "By Babatunde Olateju\nManager, Carbon Capture and Utilization, Alberta Innovates\nSurindar Singh\nExecutive Director, Clean Technology, Alberta Innovates\nJamie McInnis\nReservoir Simulation and Modelling Research Group,\nALBERTA: THE CANADIAN POWERHOUSE\nThe province of Alberta, located in Western Canada (see Figure 1), is regarded as the pillar of Canada\u2019s energy economy. It is home to the third largest oil reserves in the world,1 produces 68% of Canada\u2019s natural gas,2 holds significant renewable energy resources, and is the site of Canada\u2019s first commercial windfarm.3 Yet the most abundant fossil fuel energy resource in Alberta is coal. The energy content of coal in Alberta is greater than the energy content of natural gas and oil combined, including the oil sands.4 Coal-bearing formations underlie 304,000 km2 or 46% of Alberta\u2019s total area, making the formations larger than the United Kingdom. Alberta\u2019s coal resource is estimated to be greater than 2 trillion tonnes.4\nFIGURE 1. Location of Alberta in Western Canada\nSince the deregulation of the Alberta electricity market in 1996, electricity supply has been dominated by coal. It accounted for 51% of electricity generation in 2015 and 39% of the current generation capacity in the province.5 Alberta\u2019s electricity sector accounted for 17% of its greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions6 in 2013. Coal-fired plants are the primary source of these emissions. Against this backdrop, a newly elected provincial government in May 2015 brought a change to the political leadership and also to the provincial climate change policy. In June 2015, the provincial government introduced bold new changes to the Specified Gas Emitters Regulation (SGER).A The emissions levy was increased from the original $CDN15/tonne (US$11.19) to $CDN30/tonne (US$22.13) by 2017.7 Additionally, a higher performance criterion was put in place: By 2017, emissions intensity must be reduced by 20% from an established baseline, as opposed to the original target of 12%.7 In November 2015, the government articulated the following points relevant to the electricity sector, as part of its Climate Leadership Plan:\nMandated phaseout of pollutant emissions from coal-fired plants by 2030.\nCoal-fired plants will pay $CDN30/tonne for emissions, based on an emissions performance standard, by 2018.\nReplacement of existing coal-fired plant capacity (6299 MW), with about 4200 MW of renewables (two-thirds of existing coal capacity) and 2100 MW of natural gas (one-third of existing coal capacity), will be achieved by 2030.\nThirty percent of Alberta\u2019s electricity generation (MWh) will be from renewables by 2030.8\nKeep Hills 3 coal-fired power plant\nIn November 2016, plans for a capacity market (by 2021) to complement Alberta\u2019s current energy-only market system were announced.9 In the energy-only market system, generators are only compensated for the actual amount of energy (MWh) supplied to the grid. The introduction of a capacity market is intended to strengthen the reliability of supply and stabilize electricity prices, while providing an opportunity for generators to earn revenue by making generating capacity (MW) available to be dispatched when required.\nIn light of this new era in Alberta\u2019s electricity market, this article aims to address the following questions: (1) What do these changes mean for coal-fired power plants in the context of Alberta\u2019s electricity market? (2) What are the key determining factors for the successful phaseout of coal and what are the implications? (3) Are we living in a post-coal era or is a future coal resurgence possible?\nTo address these questions, we first need to understand the current basic Alberta economics of electricity generation as it pertains to coal-fired plants.\nTHE WHOLESALE PRICE OF ELECTRICITY AND ITS DRIVING FORCES\nIn Alberta\u2019s wholesale electricity market, the price is determined by supply and demand forces; a price floor of $0/MWh and a price celling of $999/MWh are set in place. The mechanism to determine the price of electricity involves the Alberta Electric System Operator (AESO) using a merit-order system where generators offer bids to supply electricity at various prices (often related to their marginal cost of electricity generation). The AESO dispatches supply bids in ascending order of costs\u2014i.e., the least-cost bid is dispatched first, and so on\u2014to service demand. The last bid dispatched within a one-minute time frame sets the system marginal price (SMP). Finally, the average of the SMP for each minute in a given hour sets the hourly pool price. The hourly pool price is used to compensate all generators that supply electricity in a particular hour.10 An exception occurs when a supply bid was dispatched for only part of an hour, at a price greater than the average price in that hour. In such a case, the AESO pays the supply bid price for that portion of that hour.10\nThe economics of operating coal-fired plants in Alberta are quite challenging for several reasons. First, to coincide with the oil price shock in the last quarter of 2014, electricity demand weakened (about two-thirds of Alberta\u2019s electricity demand is industrial) as new supply capacity was about to be commissioned.B As a result, the pool price began a steep descent and reached levels (< $CDN20/MWh) not seen in two decades.11 Second, sustained low natural gas prices make gas plants a competitive option relative to coal, particularly for baseload operations. Third, the April 2015 introduction of wind power plants into the merit-order system10,12 added downward pressure on the pool price. Wind plants have near-zero marginal costs and can afford to bid into the market at low energy prices that are uneconomic for coal. With significantly increased renewable penetration anticipated (plants with generally low marginal costs), the downward pressure exerted on prices will likely increase in magnitude. Last, the changes to the SGER resulted in a material increase in the cost of compliance for coal power plants; it is expected to rise from $CDN2/MWh in 2015 to $CDN6/MWh in 2017.13\nCOAL PHASEOUT IN ALBERTA: KEY DETERMINANTS OF SUCCESS\nThe difficult economic circumstance of coal-fired plants is not unique to Alberta; it is indicative of a broader trend in electricity markets across North America. For example, both the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) and wholesaler PJMC have low natural gas prices. Additionally, the increased penetration and cost-efficiency of renewables such as wind and solar are reducing the market share and competitiveness of coal significantly.14 A successful phaseout of coal by 2030 must be done in a planned, orderly fashion to ensure the reliability of the grid, affordability of energy prices, and the continued downward trend of GHG emissions in the future. This is dependent on several factors that serve as key determinants of success in the impending phaseout.\nStriking a Delicate Balance\nThe rate at which coal is phased out vis-\u00e0-vis the rate at which gas and renewable generators are phased in is a delicate balance that needs to be carefully struck.\nThere are many implications to this careful balancing act. The phaseout of coal will result in gas becoming the dominant baseload energy generation option. Moreover, due to the intermittency of renewable generators, natural gas peaking plants will increasingly be relied upon to firm up supply; these peaking plants will have attendant GHG emissions during their operation. With this in mind, there is an opportunity for technological innovation that will facilitate the penetration of utility-scale low-carbon energy storage technologies (e.g., pumped hydro, redox flow batteries, sodium sulfur batteries, etc.) in Alberta\u2019s electricity market. Energy storage has the potential to mitigate the intermittency of renewables, without the attendant operational GHG emissions aforementioned. Gas being the anchor baseload generator will also lead to the increased exposure of the grid to the dynamics of natural gas prices which, historically, have been quite volatile. Furthermore, the concentration of electricity supply from one fuel type, i.e., gas, is likely to create the same challenges of phasing out a dominant generation option such as coal. From a GHG perspective, gas-fired plants of today are likely to be the coal-fired plants of tomorrow, as our energy economies become increasingly GHG averse. A portfolio approach that ensures sufficient diversification of the energy supply mix will provide stability for the grid in the future.\nThe Incentive to Build\nIn light of the coal phaseout, the need for additional renewable capacity in Alberta\u2019s electricity market cannot be overstated, if the climate leadership objectives8 are to be realized. However, in a low-price electricity market, the incentive to build additional capacity is practically nonexistent. Addressing this issue is quite complex and presents several challenges. The Alberta government has introduced a renewable electricity incentive program (to be carried out by AESO) that will provide support for the addition of 5000 MWD of renewable capacity by 2030. The details of the first auction (400 MW of renewable capacity) have been released by AESO.15 Some key features of the auction include: a competitive bidding process; use of existing transmission or distribution infrastructure; renewable credits provided will be indexed to the pool price, i.e., a contract for difference; and plants must be operational by 2019. As reported by AESO,15, the indexed renewable credits create three possible scenarios that are a function of the (winning) bid priceE in the auction and the pool price of the market.\nIn the first scenario, if the pool price is lower than the bid price\u2014the government pays the difference to support the project. Second, if the pool price is equal to the bid price\u2014there are no payments made by the government. Last, if the pool price is higher than the bid price\u2014the plant owner pays the government the difference. Going forward, the competitive nature of this entire 5000-MW program and the effective apportioning of the risks involved will be crucial in creating a favorable investment environment, while also making electricity prices affordable.\nGenesee 3 Coal Power Plant\nAccessing the Opportunity of Change\nAlberta\u2019s electricity market is in a state of transition. This fluid state of the market has included competitive auctions for renewable energy generation, along with the planned addition of a capacity market by 2021. The capacity market, depending on the way it is designed, holds significant promise not just in enhancing the reliability of supply, but in incenting innovation. Apart from \u201ctraditional\u201d generators (gas, hydro, wind, solar, biomass), nontraditional generators, which have baseload and load following functionalities, with low to zero GHG emissions during operation, are likely to benefit significantly from the revenue certainty a capacity market provides in a carbon-constrained electricity sector. Nontraditional technologies that hold some potential in this regard include commercial technologies such as geothermal power, as well as emerging technologies including next generation small modular nuclear reactors. These technologies create opportunities for innovation and the mitigation of greenhouse gas emissions from the electricity sector.\nThat said, whether Alberta\u2019s future electricity market will encompass the nontraditional technologies as legitimate participants will become clearer as time progresses.\nWILL COAL BE BACK?\nSome would argue that coal in Alberta has no future and is slowly becoming a relic of the past. This argument is founded on a number of factors, but often, it does not consider that coal is a resource, not just a fuel for electricity. Coal as a resource will remain the same; recovery and production technologies will evolve. The evolution of technology in response to the economic, environmental, and social constraints will be a crucial determinant of the question: Will coal be back? In this light, several technological trends and opportunities are worth highlighting.\nIn the near term, before the 2030 phaseout, the co-firing of coal with other carbon-neutral feedstock such as biomass, economics permitting, provides an opportunity to lower the cost of compliance of coal-fired plants (due to the reduced GHG emissions) and utilizes potentially stranded coal assets.\nThe technological development and maturity of carbon capture and sequestration as well as underground coal gasification, considering their cost effectiveness, environmental performance, and social acceptability, has the potential to introduce new life into coal for the production of fuels; for example, hydrogen, synthesis gas, dimethyl ether, and others. Carbon conversion technologies that transform CO2 into a value-added product such as fuel or cement introduce additional potential for the environmentally sustainable use of coal. Finally, coal can be used in non-combustion applications. Current efforts are being made to extract rare earth metals from coal,16 which enable crucial functionalities in renewable technologies and other technology platforms such as consumer electronics and aerospace. New materials produced from coal, such as carbon foam,F are alternative uses of coal that could be sustained in a low-carbon era.\nFor the phaseout of coal to be conducted successfully without adverse impacts on Alberta\u2019s grid, it must be undertaken in a careful, deliberate, and orderly manner. Despite the need for new capacity to come online to replace coal-fired plants, the effective apportioning of the risks involved should be carefully considered. The future concentration of supply on one fuel type (i.e., gas), with limited diversification of the supply mix, is likely to create the same challenges currently being experienced in phasing out coal-fired plants, as energy economies become increasingly GHG adverse. Finally, we must remember that technology rose to the occasion to find ways to access and utilize coal during the Industrial Revolution. Technological innovation will be vital if coal is to have a place in an energy future with heightened environmental consciousness.G\nA. The SGER was originally introduced in 2007.

(2016). A study on removal of rare earth elements from U.S. coal byproducts by ion exchange. Metallurgical and Materials Transactions, 3, 6\u201317.\nChief Executive Officer, National Coal Council\nConsensus is growing among industry, the environmental community, and international governments that future carbon dioxide (CO2) emission reduction goals cannot be met by renewable energy alone and that carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) technologies for all fossil fuels must be deployed to achieve climate objectives in the U.S. and globally. Fossil fuels\u2014including coal, natural gas, and oil\u2014will remain the dominant global energy source well into the future by virtue of their abundance, supply security, and affordability.\nAchieving global climate objectives will require a portfolio of approaches that balance economic realities, energy security, and environmental aspirations. The most influential action the U.S. can employ to reduce CO2 emissions is to incentivize the rapid deployment of CCUS technologies. CO2 utilization can, in theory, help to reduce CCUS costs and incentivize deployment, but most CO2 use technologies face numerous and significant challenges in moving toward commercialization.\nA way forward for CCUS in the U.S.\nGeological CO2 utilization options have the greatest potential to advance CCUS by creating market demand for anthropogenic CO2. The use of CO2 for enhanced oil recovery (CO2-EOR), including production and storage activities in residual oil zones (ROZ), remains the CO2 use technology with the greatest potential to incentivize CCUS.\nNon-geological CO2 utilization options are unlikely to significantly incentivize CCUS in the near to intermediate term because of technical, greenhouse gas (GHG) life-cycle analysis (LCA) considerations, and challenges associated with scalability. Despite these barriers, further investments in non-geologic CO2 utilization technologies may, on a case-by-case basis, hold promise for turning an uneconomic CCUS project into an economic one. A broadly deployed mix of CO2 utilization technologies may help advance CCUS deployment incrementally, providing sufficient incentive to keep CCUS technologies moving forward.\nNATIONAL COAL COUNCIL MISSION\nThe National Coal Council (NCC) is a federally chartered advisory group to the U.S. Secretary of Energy, providing advice and recommendations on general policy matters relating to coal and the coal industry. In August 2016, the NCC completed a white paper for Energy Secretary Ernest Moniz that assessed opportunities to advance commercial markets for carbon dioxide (CO2) from coal-based power generation. This article highlights key findings and recommendations from the report, \u201cCO2 Building Blocks: Assessing CO2 Utilization Options\u201d.1\nIn the U.S., CO2-EOR offers opportunities for utilizing and storing CO2\nDRIVING THE NEED FOR CCUS\nCCUS technologies provide the most impactful opportunity to capture, use, and store a significant volume of CO2 from stationary point sources. These technologies can be used to reduce CO2 emissions from electric generation as well as from key industrial sectors, such as cement production, iron and steel making, oil refining, and chemicals manufacturing. Additionally, CCUS technologies significantly reduce the costs of decarbonization.2 Not including CCUS as a key mitigation technology is projected to increase the overall costs of meeting CO2 emissions goals by 70% to 138%.3,4 Finally, the commercial deployment of CCUS preserves the economic value of fossil fuel reserves (coal and natural gas) and associated infrastructure.\nCommercial markets for CO2 from fossil fuel-based power generation and CO2-emitting industrial facilities have the potential to provide a business incentive for CCUS. The extent of that economic opportunity will depend on many factors, including but not limited to expediting the development of and reducing the cost associated with CO2 capture technologies. And while commercial markets may provide significant opportunities for CO2 utilization, the global scale of CO2 emissions suggests a continued need to pursue geologic storage options with significant CO2 storage potential and initiatives such as those being undertaken by U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) through its Regional Carbon Sequestration Partnerships Program and related programs.\nFossil fuels generally, and coal specifically, are dependent upon CCUS technologies to comply with U.S. GHG emissions reduction policies. A number of U.S. regulatory policies have been adopted to reduce GHG, with geologic storage options (specifically including CO2-EOR) as preferred mitigation technologies. Included among existing and pending U.S. regulations that encourage compliance via the use of CCUS technologies are the Clean Air Act\u2019s Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD) and Title V Operating Permit programs; the Environmental Protection Agency\u2019s (EPA) Standards of Performance for GHG Emissions from New, Modified and Reconstructed Electric Utility Generating Units (111b); and the Clean Power Plan (CPP). These U.S. policies are reinforced by the 2015 Paris Agreement, which largely envisions the decarbonization of major energy systems through the use of CCUS and other technologies by the 2050 timeframe.\nU.S. law currently favors geologic storage/utilization technologies; non-geologic CO2 uses must demonstrate that they are as effective as geologic storage. Additionally, the emissions reduction targets and deadlines associated with U.S. and international climate goals point toward the use of CO2 utilization technologies that are either already commercialized or near commercialization.\nCO2-EOR represents the most immediate, most mature, and highest value opportunity to utilize the greatest volumes of anthropogenic CO2 to meet U.S. and global climate objectives (see Table 1).\nTABLE 1. U.S. regional CO2 utilization/storage and oil recovery potential\n1 Includes 0.1 billion barrels already produced or proved with CO2-EOR.\n4 Evaluated using an oil price of $85/B, a CO2 cost of $40/mt and a 20% ROR, before tax.\nSource: Advanced Resources International\nGEOLOGIC CO2 UTILIZATION MARKET POTENTIAL\nA 2011 report from the Global CCS Institute5 estimated current global demand for CO2 at about 80 million tons per year (MTPY) and suggested potential future demand could grow by an order of magnitude, reaching nearly 300 MTPY for each of a handful of technologies\u2014most notably CO2-EOR\u2014and more modest growth for an additional group of technologies. The potential global demand for CO2 for EOR was confirmed in 2015 in an International Energy Agency (IEA) study indicating that, by 2050, conventional CO2-EOR could lead to storage of 60,000 MTPY of CO2 and, through the application of advanced technologies, so-called EOR+ could increase to 240,000\u2013360,000 MTPY of CO2.6\nIn the U.S., CO2-EOR offers major potential for utilizing and storing CO2 in a diversity of geological settings.\nCO2 floods in the main pay zone (MPZ) of discovered oil fields (onshore lower-48 states, Alaska, and offshore Gulf of Mexico) offer a technical potential for utilizing and storing 38,320\u201352,240 MMmt of CO2.\nAlthough the economically viable potential from the MPZ (at an oil price of $85 per barrel and with CO2 costs linked to oil prices) is more limited, the CO2 utilization and storage volumes are still significant at 10,740\u201323,580 MMmt plus 28\u201381 billion barrels of economically viable oil recovery.\nCO2 floods in the residual oil z (ROZ) resources assessed to date could provide an additional 25,300 MMmt of technically viable CO2 utilization and storage, and significant volumes of associated oil recovery.\nOther geologic utilization markets\u2014including tight oil/shale gas formations, enhanced coal bed methane (ECBM), and enhanced water recovery (EWR)\u2014also hold current and future promise as incentives for CCUS deployment. Key knowledge gaps and technical barriers remain in the pursuit of commercial deployment of these technologies. Progress has been and is being made with these emerging technologies but additional research is required to advance to the next stages of technological maturity.\nNON-GEOLOGIC CO2 UTILIZATION MARKET POTENTIAL\nOutside of CO2-EOR and other geologic CO2 use markets, research is underway on two general paths for non-geologic CO2 utilization: breaking down the CO2 molecule by cleaving C=O bond(s) and incorporating the entire CO2 molecule into other chemical structures. The latter path holds relatively more promise as it requires less energy and tends to \u201cfix\u201d the CO2 in a manner akin to geologic storage. Utilizing CO2 in non-geologic applications faces hurdles, including yet-to-be resolved issues associated with thermodynamics and kinetics involved in the successful reduction of CO2 to carbon products and inadequate support for demonstration projects leading to commercialization. Still, these technologies are worthy of continuing evaluation, and many hold long-term potential in specific applications.\nNon-geologic utilization opportunities that tend to \u201cfix\u201d CO2 include (1) inorganic carbonates and bicarbonates; (2) plastics and polymers; (3) organic and specialty chemicals; and (4) agricultural fertilizers. Various technical and economic challenges face these commercially immature technologies, suggesting they are unlikely to incentivize CCUS deployment in the immediate future. They may, however, have an advantage over other non-geologic markets, such as fuels, which require cleaving of the CO2 bond through chemical and biological processes.\nTransportation fuels do represent a significant market opportunity. They are, however, unlikely to incentivize CCUS in the immediate future for a variety of technical and economic reasons, including: (1) transportation fuels are ultimately combusted and thus release CO2 to the atmosphere and (2) current U.S. policy favors geologic-based utilization pathways for Clean Air Act (CAA) compliance. Although the case could be made that some CO2-derived transportation fuels have lower GHG emissions than fossil-based fuels on a GHG LCA basis, non-fossil-based transportation fuels still face significant market competition and displacement hurdles.\nCO2 UTILIZATION CHALLENGES\nMarket forces alone are unlikely to incentivize CCUS as CO2 utilization faces numerous hurdles.\nCost of capture. The current major user of CO2, the EOR industry, typically cannot offer a \u201cprice\u201d for CO2 that overcomes the cost of capture for a coal-based utility. This conclusion applies even in the face of existing economic incentives, such as the current Section 45Q CCUS tax incentive.\nInsufficient scope of the market/supply considerations. Only CO2-EOR holds promise for incentivizing CCUS at any reasonable scale for compliance purposes for coal-based utilities.\nNearly all non-geologic CO2 utilization technologies are not yet commercialized. Even if some of the nascent utilization technologies being explored worldwide hold potential for use at scale, they face a decades-long slog along the technology development path and typical technology deployment \u201cvalley of death\u201d investment hurdles. These time frames suggest that, on their current trajectory, many utilization technologies will not be commercially available in time to influence CCUS deployment in the context of 2050 climate goals.\nGeographic/infrastructure considerations. Unless the utilization technology is deployed beside every coal-based facility, the captured CO2 must be transported to industrial facilities making use of CO2. This issue remains a challenge even for EOR, let alone nascent technologies that are not yet commercial.\nLegal & regulatory considerations. Under current law, CO2-EOR owners and operators must (1) conduct their injections under Class II of the Underground Injection Control (UIC) Program and (2) opt into Subpart RR of the Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program, which includes a federally approved monitoring, reporting, and verification (MRV) requirement, if they wish to demonstrate regulatory compliance under the CPP or the section 111(b) rule for long-term storage of CO2. Companies conducting non-EOR geologic storage must (1) conduct their injections under Class VI of the Underground Injection Control (UIC) Program and (2) report under Subpart RR. Each of these compliance pathways is potentially problematic.\nCO2-EOR storage. Some in the U.S. CO2-EOR industry take the position that the MRV requirement is inconsistent with oil and gas law. They have noted, for example, that an EOR operator may not be authorized to conduct storage operations under existing mineral leases. On the other hand, EPA recently approved the first MRV plan for a CO2-EOR operation. There is not uniform agreement within the U.S. CO2-EOR industry on these and related issues. The International Organization for Standardization (ISO), through the efforts of Working Group 6 under Technical Committee 265, is separately endeavoring to address these and related issues as part of the ongoing efforts to prepare the world\u2019s first technical standard governing CO2 storage in association with EOR operations.\nNon-EOR storage. The current Class VI permit process creates a disincentive and an unnecessary hurdle. For example, the Archer Daniels Midland (ADM) Decatur CO2 storage project, which was part of the Regional Carbon Sequestration Partnerships Development Phase III program and partly funded by DOE, submitted its application for Class VI well permits in July and September of 2011, but the permits were not granted until April 2014.7 Similarly, North Dakota has envisaged and made progress toward a CO2 storage program. After a lengthy process with EPA to shape its submission, the state finally made an application for Class VI primacy regulatory authority in June 2013, which has not been granted by the EPA more than three years later, in essence delaying vital work on CCUS that is necessary to advance the technology.8\nThermodynamics & Kinetics of CO2\nThe CO2 molecule is particularly stable and has a Gibbs energy of formation of -394.4 kJ/mol, which must be overcome.\nThus, breaking the C=O bond(s) and forming C-H or C-C bond(s), or producing elemental carbon, is possible. However, such molecules are at a much higher energy state, meaning that a tremendous amount of energy must be used. Converting CO2 to fuels or other high energy state molecules requires more energy input than could ever be derived from the end products.\nCO2 can also be incorporated into various chemicals as a C1 building block. This is not thermodynamically challenged because the entirety of the CO2 molecule is used and thus the C=O bonds are not broken. For this application, the principal challenge is the scale of available reactants and market for products, both of which are dwarfed by global CO2 emissions.\nPRIORITIZING CO2 UTILIZATION INVESTMENTS\nIn its \u201cCO2 Building Blocks\u201d report for Energy Secretary Moniz, the National Coal Council recommended that research investments in CO2 utilization technologies should be prioritized first according to the ability of the CO2 utilization technology to:\nMake use of CO2 at scale.\nMake use of CO2 at scale in the 2020\u20132030 time frame.\nBe commercially demonstrated prior to 2020 or as soon as possible thereafter.\nBe deployed onsite at fossil fuel-based power plants and CO2-emitting industrial facilities.\nHave realistic market potential, taking into account displacement considerations.\nBe as effective as geologic technologies.\nProvide non-trivial economic returns.\nFavorably score under existing and forthcoming GHG LCA.\nKemper County Energy Facility (Courtesy of Southern Company)\nThe Council further noted that monetary, regulatory, and policy investments in the following CO2 utilization and storage technologies, in descending order, are most likely to incentivize the deployment of CCUS technologies:\nCurrent CO2-EOR technology. It is imperative that the government clarify the existing regulatory structure, provide support for infrastructure, such as pipeline networks, and offer financial incentives for carbon capture deployment so that the promise of this existing commercial technology is fully realized.\n\u201cNext generation\u201d CO2-EOR technologies. Advances to existing CO2-EOR technologies would enable ROZ resources to be efficiently recovered.\nOther geologic storage technologies that provide economic return. ECBM and CO2 injections into ROZs provide market demand for CO2 under certain general oil and gas market conditions. They also fit within the current U.S. legal framework that gives preference to geologic storage over non-geologic uses of CO2. Not all geologic formations (ECBM, for example) have access to protocols and/or methodologies to document storage.\nSaline storage. Saline storage remains EPA\u2019s gold standard for CO2 storage and may be required to provide a backstop for CO2 utilization projects. The hurdles facing saline storage are primarily economic and regulatory, which current DOE policy recognizes, i.e., the new CarbonSAFE program. The fact remains, however, that the federal government needs to put more resources into these projects and reduce the regulatory impediments currently facing them.\nNon-geologic storage technologies that provide economic return and that are effective as geologic storage. The current U.S. legal framework prefers geologic storage over other CO2 uses. However, non-geologic technologies that keep the CO2 out of the atmosphere may be credited for the purposes of federal programs with appropriate evidence of atmospheric benefit.\nNon-geologic storage technologies that provide economic return yet are not as effective as geologic storage if appropriate EPA research waivers may be obtained. On a case-by-case basis, a CO2 utilization technology may exist or emerge that provides an economic return to a fossil fuel-based power plant or a CO2-emitting industrial facility. The technology nonetheless could be helpful in lowering the cost of capture. Appropriate legal recognition would be needed, however, for purposes of compliance with emission reduction obligations.\nAchieving stabilization of GHG concentrations in the atmosphere requires the deployment of CCUS technologies worldwide. Consensus grows among industry, the environmental community, and international governments that future CO2 emission reduction goals cannot be met by renewables alone and that advancing CCUS is not just about coal.\nCO2 utilization technologies can serve as building blocks in advancing a foundation on which to achieve global climate goals. A broadly deployed mix of CO2 utilization technologies, including geologic and non-geologic, may help to advance CCUS incrementally and may, even if they do not offer full-scale carbon management solutions, provide sufficient incentive to keep CCUS technologies moving forward. CO2-EOR offers the most immediate, most commercially mature, and highest value opportunity to utilize the greatest volumes of anthropogenic CO2. Monetary, regulatory, and policy investments that prioritize geologic CO2 use technologies first while continuing to support non-geologic applications on a longer-term basis provide the greatest promise of achieving global climate goals.\nNational Coal Council.

The main source of this power is from imported natural gas, which makes Dubai a net energy importer. Therefore, energy security is a high priority with forecasted electricity demand for the next decade projected to increase annually by 5\u20136%. In addition, the Emirate is pursuing a sustainable development path and plans to use clean energy technologies.\nThe economic success story of Dubai demonstrates how it managed to design and implement an energy strategy that captures the key levers driving its economy: energy security, demand-side management, and sustainable growth. Dubai is a living model of a coherent and cohesive energy strategy that meets future energy needs through an optimal energy mix that delivers affordable, sustainable, and clean energy to its citizens and residents.\nJOURNEY TO A SUSTAINABLE FUTURE: DUBAI\u2019S ENABLING ENVIRONMENT\nThe Emirate\u2019s energy model originates from the Dubai Integrated Energy Strategy (DIES) 2030, which was launched in 2011 by the Dubai Supreme Council of Energy (DSCE) and is reviewed periodically. The DIES strategy was recently extended until 2050 with a detailed roadmap on how to achieve various CO2 free generation source targets by 2030 and 2050 (Figure 1).\nFIGURE 1. Dubai Integrated Energy Strategy 2050.\nThe strategy builds on a world-class regulatory framework to accelerate the diversification of the energy mix, ensure security of supply, and facilitate effective demand-side management, as shown in Figure 2 with Dubai\u2019s Integrated Energy Strategy up to 2030.\nFIGURE 2. Dubai Integrated Energy Strategy \u2013 2030.\nThe DIES includes the following elements:\nGovernance and Policies: To achieve the DIES targets, the policy and regulatory regime in Dubai\u2019s energy sector has been overhauled. New principles such as public\u2013private partnerships have been put in place to increase market participation in key projects, including clean coal and solar power generation. The regulatory framework for district cooling and energy service companies (ESCOs) is also supporting the implementation of DIES 2030.\nDubai is undergoing an energy transition.\nEnergy Efficiency and Demand Reduction: Demand reduction through energy efficiency is a focus of Dubai\u2019s policy interventions to rationalize the use of power and water. The demand-side management (DSM) strategy has led to nine different programs and technical levers for energy efficiency and demand reduction. This has resulted in savings in capital, operational, and opportunity costs (as discussed in the next sections).\nEnergy Security and Sustainable Cost of Gas: Diversification of Dubai\u2019s energy sources is a key focus of DIES 2030. This has led to several projects to increase future energy security including the proposed building of a clean coal power plant, solar, and encouragement of Independent Power Producer (IPP) projects. The Mohamed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Solar Park is an example of Dubai\u2019s commitment to renewable energy. Other important elements in development include the use of imported nuclear energy, clean coal, waste-to-energy, hybrid and electric vehicles, and the distributed solar program (Shams Dubai).\nFinancial Mechanism and Capacity Building: DIES 2030 has launched measures and projects targeting DSM, renewable power, energy service contractors, Green Building Codes, and energy efficiency technologies. Financial mechanisms, such as the announced Dubai Green Fund currently under development, will encourage deployment of clean energy technologies in Dubai.\nA market-based approach using public\u2013private partnerships (PPPs) has been developed to meet the fast-growing demand for infrastructure in Dubai. The PPP approach leverages funding sources and helps balance the risk between the government and private investors. By fostering partnerships with leading international firms in clean energy, Dubai also aims to expand its local capacities through transfer of knowledge and skills.\nSince the DSCE\u2019s inception, it has rolled out a series of step-by-step regulatory reforms and policies to open the electricity market for independent power producers. This involved establishing the Regulatory and Supervisory Bureau (RSB) for the electricity and water sector in 2010. The RSB\u2019s responsibilities include licensing of new entrants in the power sector.\nOne of the pillars of the DSEM, and a crucial factor in transforming Dubai\u2019s energy market, was the review of the electricity and water tariff structure. In 2011, the Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA) introduced cost-reflective tariffs to incentivize lower consumption and more efficiency in the use of electricity and water. This sent positive signals to clean energy investors as the market became economically attractive for clean technologies, allowing for successful PPPs. Dubai\u2019s robust regulatory framework provided investors with three key elements for long-term investment: transparency, longevity, and certainty.\nSECURITY AND DIVERSIFICATION OF DUBAI\u2019S ENERGY SUPPLY WHILE MAINTAINING SUSTAINABILITY\nAfter evaluating the options to provide supply security of supply for Dubai, the government decided to shift from dependency on fossil fuel and to increase the renewable energy share. This culminated in a target of 25% of clean installed capacity by 2030 and 75% by 2050 using CO2-free generation sources. To achieve these targets, Dubai is taking progressive strides to integrate solar power into an energy mix portfolio that is currently dependent mainly on imported natural gas.\nThe robust regulatory framework and commercial terms have attracted international and regional investors resulting in the lowest levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) for 200 MW at 5.64 US cent/kWh and recently DEWA announced an 800-MW solar photovoltaic (PV) power plant at 3.0 US cent/kWh. This development marked a turning point in the journey to diversify Dubai\u2019s energy mix and demonstrated the value proposition of strategic PPPs for procuring energy at a record low price.\nThe transformation of the energy sector in Dubai is also occurring on the customer side. Residents can generate their own electricity using solar panels that can also feed extra energy to the Dubai power grid. This step will gradually transform the consumers to \u201cprosumers\u201d, a term used to describe consumers that also generate part of their own energy consumption. Dubai currently deploys a simple net-metering system wherein customers achieve savings by generating their own electricity.\nCLEAN COAL IN THE DUBAI CLEAN ENERGY STRATEGY 2050\nFor Dubai to diversify its energy mix, a decision was made to integrate clean coal to reduce dependency on imported natural gas and meet rising energy demand. Several reasons led to the decision to develop coal as an energy source. Coal is highly competitive with its low prices, dispatchability, and baseload compatibility. In addition, the combination of technological advances that allows both for higher efficiencies and reduced pollutants and emissions make it an ideal option to meet Dubai\u2019s future energy needs.\nIn fact, Dubai\u2019s commitment to a clean future stipulates the clean energy targets of the DIES 2050 strategy do not include clean coal without carbon capture and storage (CCS). Dubai has some of the most stringent emission standards and limits in the world for flue gas emissions. The deployment of clean coal technology will require meeting aggressive emissions and international environmental standards set for flue gas emissions. The limits are stricter than those in the Industrial Emissions Directive (IED) of the European Union and in the International Finance Corporation (IFC) guidelines. Dubai\u2019s clean energy targets also include achieving CO2-free generation sources of 25% of its installed capacity in 2030 and 75% in 2050.\nIn 2016, Dubai awarded the first phase of the Hassyan Clean Coal Power Project comprising four 600-MW units. The ultra-supercritical technology to be deployed will aim for 50% high heating value (HHV) efficiency compared to only 35% efficiency in the current pulverized coal-fired plants. The first 600-MW unit will be commissioned in 2020. The full project size is 2400 MW; it will be the first clean coal power plant in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) region. The electricity from the coal-fired power plant will be utilized during the high peak demand periods of the summer season to ensure security of supply at a reasonable cost.\nDubai has developed attractive commercial terms to secure the lowest levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) of about 4.5 US cent/kWh for the Hassyan project based on an IPP procurement model on a build-own-operate (BOO) basis. The project is 78% debt and 22% equity financed. This IPP model also fosters partnerships with leading international firms in clean energy, leverages funding sources, and helps balance the risk between the government and private investors.\nDIES 2030 also has an objective to reduce 30% of Dubai\u2019s energy demand from the current business-as-usual scenario. To achieve this reduction by 2030, a detailed DSM strategy for electricity and water has been implemented, which is the first of its kind in the region. The DSM strategy has opened up new business opportunities for sustainable and efficient businesses by outlining policies, regulations, awareness schemes, technologies, and finance schemes.\nThe strategy is based on nine programs with a specific database, reduction targets, and enablers to influence behavior and encourage well-thought-out measures. To ensure that the measures are effective, the government has engaged key stakeholders for consultation on the proposed programs, reduction measures, and timeline with a clear roadmap targeting 30% consumption reduction of water and electricity by 2030. The stakeholders\u2019 engagement and global benchmarking will provide information and knowledge in the following areas: building regulations, building retrofits, district cooling, standards and labels for appliances and equipment, water reuse and irrigation, outdoor lighting, change of tariffs, demand response, and distributed solar.\nGREEN MOBILITY IN DUBAI\nTo accelerate the uptake of hybrid and electric vehicles (EVs), the Emirate established the Green Mobility Initiative to lead the world in becoming more sustainable using smart technologies. The initiative complements the spirit of Dubai Plan1 2021 by providing alternative modes of transportation that reduce fuel usage and CO2 emissions. Road transportation is the third largest source of Dubai\u2019s greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. This initiative is an important contributor to Dubai Carbon Abatement Strategy 2021, which aims to reduce carbon emissions by 16% in 2021 compared to the business-as-usual scenario in 2021.\nThe Dubai Supreme Council of Energy and its entities have developed a comprehensive approach founded on the principle of \u201cleading by example\u201d. A detailed analysis was undertaken by the government of the market potential of hybrids and EVs. Based on this analysis a decision was made that the government vehicle fleet would be 10% hybrid or EVs by 2021.2\nIn addition to creating a market for hybrids and EVs, leading by example will enable the government to build the learning curve necessary to expand the deployment of such vehicles in the arid climate of Dubai. The Road and Transportation Authority (RTA) has already demonstrated the successful use of hybrid vehicles. The RTA3 employed over 140 hybrid taxis in 2015 and reported that around 30% fuel savings were achieved and found no performance challenges with the vehicles. The RTA is currently planning to convert 50% of its fleet to hybrid taxis by 2021 and is monitoring feasibility of hydrogen cell vehicles based on recent advancement in this technology.\nDUBAI CARBON ABATEMENT STRATEGY 2021: LOCAL ACTION\u2026GLOBAL CHANGE\nIn a short time, the Emirate has created a platform to find solutions for energy challenges by development of specific programs and projects. The first-in-the-region Dubai Carbon Abatement Strategy 2021 details programs that integrate alternative and renewable energy to diversify Dubai\u2019s generation mix. This strategy will allow the Emirate to manage its energy demand, to increase efficiency, and to develop sector-based GHG reduction targets.\nTo design a performance-based program for carbon abatement, the strategy defined major sectors contributing to carbon emissions, referred to as \u201chigh-impact sectors\u201d. Based on the carbon emissions profile for 2011, these sectors are power and water, manufacturing, road transportation, and waste. An unpublished technical evaluation of the emissions reduction potential for these high-impact sectors was carried out with the support of the Dubai Carbon Centre of Excellence, resulting in a target of 16% reduction of GHG by 2021 in comparison with the business-as-usual estimations for the same year.\nIn 2015, members of the Dubai Carbon Abatement Strategy saved 5.7 million tons of CO2e, which is equivalent to 10.6% reduction from business as usual in 2015.\nBECOMING a ROLE MODEL IN ENERGY MANAGEMENT AND SUSTAINABILITY\nThe efforts of the UAE and Dubai to spearhead clean energy development in the region contribute greatly beyond the borders of the UAE. In a rapidly changing world, Dubai has seized the opportunity to follow a sustainable development pathway as it continues to grow. The clear and supportive vision of its leadership paved the way to develop a long-term strategy and deliver phased, but steadily implemented progress to achieve the goals of its DIES 2030. The strategy has resulted in investment certainty for the private sector and in several successful PPPs that resulted in low-cost solar energy, with positive ramifications for the future of solar not only in Dubai but the entire region.\nThe Emirate\u2019s model as illustrated in Figure 3 is becoming a benchmark for the transition to a clean energy future in a region historically perceived as a synonym for \u201coil\u201d. By 2030, Dubai expects to turn its sunny days into a sustainable fuel for generations to come and deliver strategic programs to support its Green Agenda to become a role model in energy management and sustainability in the region.\nFIGURE 3.

        "title": "Request for Proposal Part I: Is an RFP Right for Me? \u2014 Craford Benefit Consultants - A Risk Strategies Company",
        "raw_content": "Lauren Wilson, Client Manager\nAcross all departments, all companies, and all industries one common (and often dreaded) task is that of releasing a Request for Proposal (RFP). An RFP is simply the process of releasing a bid solicitation for a particular service to a range of selected vendors. Larger companies may have a Procurement Department who assists in these ventures company-wide, or often a third party vendor is used to administer the sometimes daunting task. In our business, as Benefit Consultants, going out to market with an RFP is a pretty common occurrence. Not only do we receive RFP\u2019s from potential clients inquiring about our services, but in our role as brokers we market our clients major benefit plans as well as services for ongoing initiatives like Wellness or Employee Assistance Programs and one-off projects such as a dependent or claims audit.\nIn some ways, the RFP process can be a bit like spring cleaning in that it\u2019s a huge, time-consuming task but if you do it right can be majorly rewarding. While the reward for spring cleaning is a calming effect brought on by a light and airy home free from the heavy clutter accumulated during winter; the reward for a properly executed RFP can be a helpful new vendor, refreshing a current relationship with a current vendor, a valuable benefit addition or change, or even measurable cost savings. While the benefits seem obvious, a perceived negative of releasing an RFP is the work that goes into creating the request and making a decision. However, as a consultant, we are more than happy to take this burden off our clients by managing the process and assisting you with making the final decision. When evaluating whether an RFP is right for you, some questions to consider:\nWhen did you last market your plans and or services?\nWe recommend that our clients do a market check every few of years, even if they\u2019re happy with their plans and carriers due to the increasing cost of providing benefit insurance to employees and the need to stay competitive. The world of Health and Welfare Benefits is constantly changing, therefore a plan or service that was competitively priced three years ago may not be so today. One area that we often see this is with rates that were implemented at the start of ACA, as there was a lot of uncertainty on what to expect which is sometimes reflected in the pricing. Now that things have leveled off a bit, we\u2019re seeing some different approaches to pricing today than in 2012 or 2013.\nAre you confident in the pricing and plan design?\nMaybe you\u2019re in a long standing vendor relationship and have excellent guaranteed rates \u2013 then by all means, don\u2019t waste time marketing! You should feel great about the fact that your plan is running well, you\u2019re partnering with a fair insurer, and your consultant is doing excellent work negotiating your rates. Of course if this isn\u2019t the case for you, that doesn\u2019t mean the opposite is true. You might have a great consultant and carrier but you\u2019ve had a bad year with claims. In this case the carrier would be forced to pass on a steep increase during renewal and our recommendation would be that we create an RFP and see if we can find a way to control the cost.\nAre you satisfied with the level of service you\u2019re receiving?\nIf you\u2019re unhappy with a carrier or vendor hopefully your consultant is already working with the team to have that corrected, but unfortunately sometimes it\u2019s just not possible. As much as we hate it, sometimes a particular vendor just isn\u2019t the right match for a client\u2019s needs. The importance of great service cannot be over stated and a vendor failing to meet the needs of a customer would result in a strong recommendation to initiate the RFP process.\nDo you have a trusted advisor to manage the process?\nWe would not recommend that anyone take on this task without the assistance of a consultant who is familiar with the process of an RFP and understands your needs from the perspective of strategy, company culture, cost, and service. They should be your advocate and ally with the vendors and your partner and advisor when it comes to decision making.

        "title": "Breathtaking gene discovery in Dalmatian dogs",
        "raw_content": "A new genetic study has uncovered the cause of acute respiratory distress in Dalmatian dogs. ADRS has an early onset, with puppies or young dogs experiencing difficulty in breathing, which rapidly leads to death. The gene study used material which was previously collected at the University of Helsinki Veterinary Teaching Hospital as well as canine biobank samples.\nNew gene sheds light on the causes of lung injuries\n\"There are many causes for lethal acute respiratory distress. In humans, the underlying cause is often pneumonia, inflammation or pulmonary fibrosis. In Dalmatians, the cause is a genetic lung tissue disorder. Our study indicates that the disorder results from a defect in an anillin protein which binds to actin, the supporting microfilaments in the cell,\" explains Professor Hannes Lohi.\n\"Anillin has an important role in cell division and growth. The lung injury in the affected dogs seems to be related to an abnormal regeneration capacity of the bronchiolar epithelium. The ANLN gene discovery is in line with this manifestation of the disease. In addition, some of the affected dogs only had one kidney, while some had hydrocephalus. This suggests that ANLN has broader significance for the development of the epithelium in different organs,\" states Dr Marjo Hyt\u00f6nen.\n\"This gene discovery provides new insights into the mechanisms of lung injuries. Typically, lung injuries in the affected Dalmatians are associated with disorders in the cellular regeneration and intercellular junctions. The lack of anillin, the actin-binding protein, can perfectly explain the changes which we see on the cellular level. Due to the malformed epithelial structure, inhaled air is trapped in the alveolar level, over-extending the alveolar walls,\" explains veterinary pathologist, LicVetMed Pernilla Syrj\u00e4.\nGene test to provide exact information for diagnostics and breeding\nIn the future, the research results can help diagnose the illness and eradicate it from the breed.\n\"We tested more than 180 Dalmatians and 30 Pointers to find the mutation associated with the disease. Less than 2% of the Dalmatians carried the mutation, while none of the Pointers did. ARDS has been known for a long time in the breed, and breeders have learnt to avoid risk lines, which is likely the cause of the low carrier frequency. However, it is challenging to eradicate a condition from the breed in recessive disorders such as ARDS without genetic testing, as the carrier dogs do not have the disease. Both parents must be carriers for the disease to manifest, so affected puppies will have inherited the mutation from each parent,\" states LicVetMed Saila Holopainen.\nThe gene test will be made available as part of the MyDogDNA test (www.mydogdna.com).",

Out in the middle of the desert of California, are a collection of people living by their own rules, and by their own means. I guess you could compare it in part to the hippie communes of the 1960\u2019s, with many of the ideals from that era still present. It is a place where individuality and freedom are celebrated, as opposed to condemned and taxed. During my time there, I met some incredibly cool and interesting people, each of whom had their own fascinating stories to tell. I would have loved to stay longer, but time was not on my side. A return trip is a must!\nThe first guy I met was a man named \u2018Papa Jimmy\u2019, who told great stories of an interesting life lived. They are not my stories to tell, so I won\u2019t, but he certainly is a fascinating character. He was getting tattooed in the back of his old bus when i met him.\nWhilst here I also met a traveling blues musician, by the name of \u2018Candyman\u2019 ( www.candymanland.com ). He also had stories to share, tales of traveling and of big dreams.\nThis guy, who\u2019s name I didn\u2019t catch was doing this at the side of the road on the outskirts of Slab City, and I just had to stop and take a picture. I did not get his full story, but you can bet it was amazing!",

        "raw_content": "PROCEEDINGS OF A COURT OF INQUIRY IN THE CASE OF MAJOR MARCUS >> A. RENO\nCONCERNING HIS CONDUCT AT THE BATTLE OF THE LITTLE BIG HORN RIVER\nQ. Q. 979\nThe Chicago \u201cTimes\u201d issue of January 23, 1879, published the following interview with Frederick Whittaker, then present in the Chicago in anticipation of his being permitted to assist Recorder Lee in the presentation of the case against Major Reno. The interview is captions: \u201cCOL. RENO\u2019S PROSECUTOR\u201d\u2019 and reads and follows:\nA Times reporter met Mr. Frederick Whittaker, the gentleman who has been so well advertised of late as the official accuser of Maj. Reno, at the Palmer House last night, and entered into a conversation with him in regard to the circumstances that led to the trial. Mr. Whittaker served as an officer in General Merritt's division, under Sheridan, in the valley, and is, therefore, thoroughly competent to speak on matters pertaining to the cavalry branch of the service. He did not, however, go into any criticism of the manner in which the troops were maneuvered on the day of the battle, but confined himself to a brief statement of the circumstances which led to the present investigation, and a few facts which render his action plainer then has yet appeared. He also stated that this trial will not end the matter, and cleared Col. Benteen of the charge of disobedience of orders. Mr. Whittaker's statement, as drawn forth by the reportorial questions, was as follows:\n\u201cWhile I was preparing material for the biography of Gen. Custer, in 1876, I became acquainted with the facts attending the Custer Massacre, and I entered into correspondence with various parties present at the battle, with a view to elicit anything which might throw light on the causes of the disaster. When I commenced to work my only materials were the official report of Maj. Reno and such newspaper accounts as had been published, mostly founded on hearsay evidence. My first suspicions that all the circumstances of the battle had not been correctly stated arose from a letter in a New York paper written from the frontier by a gentleman with whom I am personally acquainted. The statements in that letter led me to doubt whether Gen. Custer had been properly supported, and whether his orders had been obeyed by his officers so fully as to insure success. With that letter as a clue, I addressed a series of inquiries to the officers whom I knew to have been prominent in the battle, asking certain specific and detailed questions. My first answer to these letters came from Maj. Reno, stating that he had been shown one of these communications by an officer or his command, and offering me an explanation of his conduct, substantially the same as the present theory of his defense. Only one of the officers to whom I wrote replied, and his letter, while in its expressions of opinion it supported Maj. Reno, agreed in its statements of fact with the newspaper letter to which I have referred as first EXCITING MY SUSPICIONS. Since that time I have had considerable correspondence with a great many people who were present at the fight, and on the information so obtained I wrote the account of the battle which appeared in my \u201cLife of Custer,\u2019 published in December, 1876.\nAt that time my knowledge was not exact to justify me in a formal official accusation of any person, but in the book itself and in several letters published in the New York and other eastern papers, in every case over ray own signature, I declared the necessity of investigation and challenged Maj. Reno thereto. The major was in New York City on the day the book was published, knew my address, and was fully aware or the nature of my accusations, but he took no notice thereof.\n\u201cEver since then I have been receiving new information, until, in 1878, I thought that my case was about complete. I then addressed my letter to Mr. Corlett, much the same as already published. That letter was referred to the House Military Committee, and a favorable report was prepared thereon; but, owing to the press of business at the close of the last session of Congress, no opportunity occurred to offer it in the House, also it went over to the present session as unfinished business. Since that time the Military authorities have taken the matter out of the hands of the House and ordered the present .court, and in deference to the wishes of others I have made no effort to push the matter further in the present House. I came to Chicago at the request of the court, at a considerable sacrifice of time and money, leaving much important business unattended to, solely in the hope of securing justice for the memory of Gen. Custer, by bringing to light THE TRUTH ABOUT THE: BATTLE. OF THE; LITILE BIG HORN am the campaign in which the general met his death. Since I have been here I have become satisfied that the scope of the present inquiry and the orders by which the court is limited are too narrow to insure the revelation of all the facts bearing on the question or who is responsible for the Custer disaster. I have, therefore, made application for a further and fuller investigation in the highest tribunal of the country, - the Senate of the United States, - and private letters from Washington assure me that this application will in all probability soon be granted. As regards the question of Maj. Reno's guilt or innocence, I am satisfied that the present court is doing all in its power to probe the truth to the bottom, and I came \u2022here to aid them as far as lay in my power. I must, of course, decline to express an opinion on the merit~ of the controversy between myself and Maj. Reno while the cause is still pending.\n\u201cWith regard, however, to COL. BENTEEN, the case is different. I have heretofore publicly charged Col. Benteen with disobedience of an order sent by Gen. Custer to move up to his support \u201cquickly.\u201d For two years my impression, derived from the testimony of an officer now dead, was that Col. Benteen advanced slowly to the field of action. That impression was strengthened from various causes from mc>nth to month and still further strengthened by the statement of another officer, only a few days since, who, however, I now think misapprehended the exact drift of my question. Only two days ago I saw for the first time the man who carried the order to Benteen, and who remained with his\u2022 command in its advance to the field of action. I learned from this men for the first time that Col. Benteen took the trot on his advance. From the moment that he reached the hill and reported to Maj. Reno his responsibility ceased. I therefore desire to state, as publicly as I made the accusation that I consider Col. Benteen wholly blameless for the disaster of the Little Big Horn; and I have already so stated in my application to the Senate. I make this correction in justice both to the living and the dead. That is all l care about saying at present.\u201d\nColumn 1, page introduced; column 2, page reproduced.\nNo. 1.

But i'm happy that they are into giving it a try as opposed to beating me to a pulp for being a foreigner as some reporters have mentioned the Right-wingers here having a bit of a xenophobic streak. which i actually experienced the other night. A student in a bar told me that they were so happy to be a white European as it made life easier. I couldn't argue with that not having experienced any other view point. But then to be told that black people are scarey, and that they made her nervous. That creeped me out a bit. I noted that there was something in her face that suggested that I was supposwed to agree...\nConversation dried up.\nOn another note altogether; saw a poster for a few bands playing in Kielce. Quite a rarity. maybe take the time to go see 'em. In brackets below the band name was \"death-core\". Which i don't think I can say I have experienced before. I am wondering if it is a good idea to go to such a show when i have to get up at 7a.m before going to work the next day...\nMore photos od stencil graffiti up on flicfkr.\nHopefully the chopped-off remix of Kid Dynamo have been fixed.\nFresh audio to be posted pretty soon, as the \"Dark Wheeze\" series of recording starts to get into shape.\nAdded to \"the Song that never ends\" exhibition.\nhttp://www.jarednielsen.com/song.html",

Weighing in at 7,000kg when combat-loaded, this helicopter has been developed indigenously by Changhe Aircraft Industries Corporation (CAIC). The tandem-seat rotary-winged design is a very important project for the PLA, and great secrecy still surrounds it. Its maiden flight took place in 2003, but the program has been plagued with difficulties, particularly in connection with its indigenously manufactured engines. The WZ-10 can carry HJ-10 anti-tank missiles, rocket pods, a chin-mounted 30mm 2A72 cannon and TY-90 air-to-air missiles on two hardpoints on each stub wing.\nThe WZ-10 is set to play a key role in the future of the PLA, and the care exhibited in Dragon\u2019s kit reflects this. This carefully researched helicopter model arrives courtesy of completely new toolings for every single component in the box. A full combat load of weaponry (rockets, cannon and missiles) gives this attack helicopter a purposeful and deadly appearance. This finely detailed kit allows modelers to examine this Chinese design in far greater detail, and it also makes a fine comparison with the AH-64 Apache, Mi-24 and Mi-28 helicopter kits that Dragon has already released in the same scale. The WZ-10 is the face of the PLA\u2019s future combat \u2013 and now model-makers can see it face to face!",

        "raw_content": "Timing is everything: Making the most of your Annual Appeal\nOnce upon a time, I worked for an organization that exemplified why best practices are a necessity when timing an annual appeal.\nThey were a great organization that helped many needy kids in Boston\u2026 Let\u2019s call them the Derek Zoolander Center For Kids Who Can\u2019t Read Good And Wanna Learn To Do Other Stuff Good Too (Derek Center for short). Derek Center was well supported by a large donor base and many people who were attached to the mission, passionate about the organization, and donated consistently.\nEvery year when it came time to send out their annual appeal, they struggled with the language used. They wanted to show that they valued everyone\u2019s ideas, and so they got\nand stuck\u2026\nand stuck.\nFinally, one year they got so stuck that their appeal did not come out until the second week of\u2026January!\nNow, statistically we all anticipate the impact of sending an appeal that late. And you will not be shocked in hearing the results. Derek Center\u2019s income was down 40% from the years when they put their appeal out in mid-December.\nIn a perfect world, this would be a prime example for learning from your mistakes. But did the loss of more than $60,000 stop them from making this mistake again? Of course not. The next year the appeal went out in January, again.\nEven more so than the original mistake/loss of fundraising dollars, compounding it does a huge disservice to the organization. It is not just the money that was lost by the late appeal, it is the impact it has on donors.\nYour donors are your biggest asset, and because of this your database needs to be treated with care and love. People are creatures of habit- every December we each get many appeals and we sift through them to find the organizations that resonate with us individually and those are the organization to which we contribute. If Derek Center\u2019s appeal isn\u2019t a part of that pile, then Derek Center will not be the \u201cchosen one.\u201d\nWhat\u2019s the big deal with timing?\nFunny you should ask; here are the reasons (all practical and statistically sound) to send your appeal out to individual donors in early-to-mid December.\nAccording to the Giving Institute 72% of contributions come from individual donors\nIn 2014, more than $358 billion was given in charitable donations\u2014You deserve your piece of that pie.\nThe average person makes 24% of his or her annual donations between Thanksgiving and New Year\u2019s\nNetwork for Good research shows that 12% of ALL giving happens in the last three days of the year\nIf your organization is missing from a donor\u2019s December pile of appeals, absent from social media and not in the front of their mind, there will be another organization there to take your place. Each year you are not there at the right time, your organization falls further and further down the rabbit hole of your donors\u2019 thoughts. Out of sight, out of mind; something you definitely do not want.\nA lot of large, national organizations send appeals out every month. While not practical for the small to medium organizations many of us work for, there are lessons to be learned and best practices to be copied. More on that in our next post, how to attract the most donors to your appeal.\nPrevious post: The Real Deal in Board Giving & Fundraising Best Practices\nNext post: Annual Appeal: Embracing the Individual Donor",

        "raw_content": "Stars: The King of Pop\n\u201cHold for applause\u2026hold for applause\u2026and fade out.\u201d\nIt\u2019s still hard for me to believe Michael Jackson is no longer with us.\nFor those of you much younger than I, you might have grown up in the afterglow of the indescribable success Michael had in the early 80s, but you didn\u2019t get a chance to experience the explosive worldwide phenomenon first hand. Those of us lucky enough to be youngsters or teens at the time got to be a part of something that can only be compared to the breakout of The Beatles in the 1960s. Michael Jackson had been a star, even a household name for a long time as the boy who fronted the Jackson 5 and led them to hit after hit in the 70s. But it was as a solo artist that this young man from Gary, Indiana truly shook up the world and forever changed it.\nThis Is It, therefore, is both a joyful celebration of a glorious past and a wistful longing for a future that will never be. It was an intimate chronicle of the undisputed King of Pop preparing for his new tour celebrating his 50 years on the planet and the fans that made him one of the most successful artists of all time. Michael passed on before he could bring one show to his audiences, but the cameras that captured his rehearsing and the assembling of what would have been a historic 50 date tour have brought us a fitting finale to the man and the legend.\nWith amazing sets and costumes, talented dancers and an absolutely amazing back up band, Michael was getting ready to bring to the world a showcase of the music that helped define popular culture for most of my life. All the songs you most want to hear are done; and even though Michael sometimes says he\u2019s holding back in the rehearsals to save his voice for the real show, whenever there was a small crowd, even if it was only his stagehands and dancers, he couldn\u2019t help but open up and deliver as only he could. That was part of his magic; it didn\u2019t matter if the audience was millions or just ten people. Michael always put his full heart and soul into every performance, and few, if any, could match him in that respect.\nPerhaps the most emotional moment of the movie is during a segment in which Michael embraces his Jackson 5 days, singing both \u201cI Want You Back\u201d and \u201cThe Love You Save\u201d. But when he opens up and delivers an astonishingly potent rendition of \u201cI\u2019ll Be There\u201d, it\u2019s as if time had stood still and continued to do so. It was like Michael was never gone, and that all of the legal issues and controversies that had become synonymous with his name in recent years had never happened.\nThis tour would have been one of the most phenomenal rock and pop events in music history, and it\u2019s heartbreaking to think it never got a chance to happen. But thanks to this film, some devoted artists, and mostly Michael himself, we will always remember the man and his music. 50 years old or not, when he took to the stage, he was, and forever will be, in his prime.\nThis is everything I hoped it would be on Blu-ray\u2026this is Michael Jackson\u2019s last vision presented to the world, and it looks absolutely glorious in high definition. You can tell some hi-def cameras were used and some that were standard, but the overall mix of footage is beautifully crisp and colorful, and given the intimate nature of the events, without large audiences, this disc really makes you feel like you\u2019re there. The footage shot for background video is also extraordinarily detailed and intricate.\nLikewise, this solid DTS 5.1 mix brings all the excitement of Michael\u2019s hits to vivid life in live performance form. As mentioned, his band is untouchable, and with this mix, you can hear everything in powerful dynamic glory. Michael\u2019s showmanship shines here; sometimes he brings everything gently down to pin-drop level before bringing the music to explosive climaxes. An absolutely joyful listen.\nThere are two making-of documentaries and three featurettes on costumes, auditioning the dancers, and remembering Michael, along with the full vignettes conceived for \u201cSmooth Criminal\u201d and \u201cThriller\u201d. An optional Movie IQ track can run while you watch for even more behind-the-scenes information.\nWhat Michael Jackson brought to the world will never be forgotten, and This Is It will forever remind all of us fans how much more he had to give. This is not the mourning of a life lost too soon, but a celebration of music, talent and spectacle, the likes of which will always be the legacy of the King of Pop.",

I wrote that somewhere near the railway branch line was held. When it became plain, the opportunity to get to know her better. It can be very useful is appropriate to recall the film \"Life Is a Miracle,\" a beautiful film director Emir Kusturica. Some pictures below well, almost from the film footage. (Remember, at the end of last year's trip to Serbia, I created a similar entry .)\nKusturica took not only the \"Black cat - white cat\", which I think is the best comedy that ever looked, but a lot of films devoted to the Balkan problem. He was very worried about the fate of his homeland, his family. The problem of sectarian strife is found in many of his films. In general, if you have not watched films Kusturica - highly recommend it.\nOn the way, you can watch in rural areas live ordinary Bosnians. At home, I think, apartment, but at the same time look fairly decent and comfortable.\nIn the center of Sarajevo is a long-predlinnaya road with the same long-predlinnymi tramway on the dividing strip. The case went to the evening, the trams were completely clogged at rush hour. In front of me went iMobil.\nBefore I found works for me the hotel, took a long time: first, I have long sought wherever possible to park, even for a fee. In the center of empty seats there was no one, except for day underground parking lots for the irresponsible money. Then I just stopped looking even paid parking lots, abandoned the car on the sidewalk in brazen absolutely prohibited place and went in search of a decent hotel.\nThe first attempt was also not the best, but the second time I was lucky: a very decent 3 * hotel with breakfast, internet and parking (as well as courteous staff) for \u20ac 40 per day almost in the center of me is completely arranged.\nThe last part of the quest on arrangement of the night was to remember where I stopped the car and how to get through. As I have done all these points, I could safely go for a walk around town and enjoy dinner. Now then a few pictures from the evening of Sarajevo. Also a very beautiful city, full of oriental style. A few minutes later it seems that he was somewhere in the Middle East, for example, in Beirut, but not in Europe.\nEven flashlights can be found exactly the same as sold in the Grand Bazaar `e in Istanbul. Well, in general, communication is now Bosnia, and Turkey is strong enough: Turkish Airlines and Air Bosna operates 14 flights a week on the route from Istanbul to Sarajevo and back.\nAlthough, if you look a little different angle, the city no less European than many others.\nThe city has both Orthodox and Catholic churches, and mosques, and synagogues. I even felt strange, like people of different ethnicities and religions living together for so many years, suddenly broke off all relations with each other and sucked into a terrible bloody war.\nHowever, in Sarajevo flared and more global conflicts, covering not only the territory of former Yugoslavia, and many dozens of countries: June 28, 1914 Gavrilo Princip killed Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria, after a few days gave rise to the top of the First World War. The assassination was carried out at 15 meters from the bridge here (Court of the scheme ).\nThe guide has a separate LP small note \u00abSarajevo roses\u00bb. Roses are everywhere and really grow.\nSarajevo - not less wonderful city than to Mostar, about which I spoke last time.\nThe next morning, after breakfast, I moved north to the border with Croatia, passed town of Travnik, Donji Vakuf and Jajce.\nOn the road were all the same beautiful scenery with hills, small villages and minarets. Seemed interesting ruined church.\nTravnik - a very interesting city with an impressive stone castle on the hill and other interesting.\nOn the surrounding hills are grazed cows. Well, exactly, Switzerland.\nNote the interesting pattern on the mosque.\nOne of the central places is the area of \u200b\u200bTravnik Plava Voda, where there are restaurants, cafes, souvenir shops and so on. - A favorite place for celebrations of the local population.\nAnd to heap more photos.\nYes, I remember, in Travnik, there were many children. This feeling that children in summer camps here were carried from the whole of Bosnia.\nDonji Vakuf - a small town where I stopped for 5 minutes to take a picture of the clock tower and sky-blue dome on the mosque.\nEgg - a cozy town, an interesting first waterfall, but the old fortress and the surrounding views are personal.\nThat's all way more committed to my surprise results in the Republika Srpska, of which tomorrow.",

        "title": "Empire's Last Casualty: Muslim Takeover of West Bengal, India",
        "raw_content": "The Muslim Takeover of West Bengal\nRiots, restrictions on speech and religion, and the takeover of politics and law enforcement are just a few of the unwelcome changes that can be expected in non-Muslim societies as Muslim immigrants increase in number, according to Dr. Peter Hammond. A Christian missionary based in South Africa and author of 40 books, Hammond delineates how Muslims change societies in his book, Slavery, Terrorism and Islam. Citing examples of countries worldwide, Hammond outlines typical activities that occur as the Muslim percentage of the total population increases. It is a warning bell about the gradual, step-by-step changes that can be expected in other countries still undergoing significant Muslim immigration.\nThese societal changes occur because devout Muslims are bound by a 1,400-year-old doctrine of immigration originating in Islamic scriptures and based on Mohammed's migration from Mecca to Medina. Under the religious edict or Hijra, Islamic expansionism and submission of all non-Muslims to shariah or Islamic doctrine must occur. Islamic expansionism and its counterpart, jihad, are first expressed as Muslim demands for special status and privileges within the host country. A higher percentage of Muslims in the host country can soon translate into Muslim control of political processes, law enforcement, media, and the economy, as well as restrictions on freedom of movement, speech and religious practices. The appropriation of goods and property, as well as violence with impunity, can also occur.\nThe situation in at West Bengal in Hindu-majority India, bordering Muslim-majority Bangladesh, illustrates the inherent problems to non-Muslim societies of a growing Muslim population.\nBengal, an ethno-cultural region, was politically divided in 1947 during the partitioning of British India into independent India and Pakistan. Under this arrangement, the Bengal province was carved in two: the predominately-Hindu West Bengal, a state of India, and the predominately-Muslim East Bengal, which became a province of Pakistan and, in 1971, the Muslim-majority country of Bangladesh.\nAt partitioning, the Muslim population of West Bengal stood at 12% and the Hindu population of East Bengal 30%. Today, with massive Muslim immigration, Hindu persecution and forced conversions, West Bengal\u2019s Muslim population has increased to 27% (up to 63% in some districts), as per the 2011 census and Bangladesh\u2019s Hindu population has decreased to 8%. While the situation for Hindus in Bangladesh is certainly dire, life has become increasingly difficult for Hindus in West Bengal, home to a Muslim-appeasing government and a breeding ground and safe haven for terrorists. For several years, West Bengal has suffered under apparent Muslim-planned riots designed to implement shariah, extract government concessions and grab more territory.\nKolkata Riots\nIn 2007, a violent protest broke out in Kolkata (formerly known as Calcutta) against Bangladeshi feminist author, physician and human rights activist, Taslima Nasreen. The demonstrations against Nasreen were a thinly veiled attempt to institute Islamic blasphemy laws and curtail freedom of speech.\nNasreen, who was born a Bangladeshi Muslim but chose atheism, had witnessed the horrific treatment of Islamic women in her medical practice, and advocated for freedom of expression, women\u2019s rights, non-Muslim rights and abolition of shariah law. In 1993, she published a novel, Lajja (Shame) about a Hindu family persecuted by Muslims. The novel ignited a furor in the Muslim community, which called for a ban on the book and offered a bounty for her death. The novel was subsequently banned by Indian authorities. Nasreen was physically attacked, went into hiding and escaped from Bangladesh to Europe. After 10 years\u2019 exile, she returned to the east and settled in Kolkata. Her Bangladeshi passport had been revoked and she waited several years for a visa to be able to visit India. While in Kolkata, she continued to write articles critical of Islam despite renewed threats and calls for her beheading.\nIn November 2007, a protest organized by militant Muslims against Nasreen led to riots as Muslims blocked traffic, pelted police and journalists, torched cars and damaged buses. Similar to the justification for the Charlie Hebdo murders in Paris, West Bengali Muslims protested the violation of shariah blasphemy law, which mandates death for anyone who dares to criticize Islam. The army was forced to intervene, Nasreen was placed under house arrest and later forced to leave the area. The banned Student Islamic Movement of India (SIMI) and the Pakistani Inter-Service Intelligence (ISI) were believed to have fostered the mayhem.\nCanning District Riots\nIn 2013, Muslims in West Bengal were actively lobbying for a second partition of India to create an Islamic super state \u2013 Mughalistan \u2013 that would incorporate Pakistan, Bangladesh and parts of India. Meanwhile, ethnic divisions were also stirred up by an upcoming local election. Into this charged situation, the murder of a Muslim cleric by unidentified assailants sparked outrage among Muslims, as thousands mobilized for rioting in the Canning District. An article in a popular weekly publication, Organiser, called the attack \u201ca well organized and meticulously planned attack on Hindus.\u201d Over 200 Hindu homes were looted and firebombed, hundreds of temples and idols destroyed, and vehicles set on fire amid shouts of \u201cAllah-hu Akbar!\u201d Repeated calls for help by Hindus went unanswered by the police. Local residents claimed authorities were complicit with the Muslim mobs.\nViolence in Usti\nThis January 29th, in a market in the Kolkata suburb of Usti, more than 50 Hindu shops were ransacked, looted and gutted by rampaging jihadists. Police mostly watched as bombs were hurled at Hindus indiscriminately. They fired a few random shots into the air and detained victimized Hindu shop owners while their attackers roamed free. A legislative assembly member and the state minister for minority affairs reportedly demanded that local police release the few rioters held in custody. There was limited reporting by the mainstream media that didn\u2019t specify the Muslim identity of the perpetrators and West Bengal\u2019s Chief Minister, Mamata Banerjee, issued no statement about the violence. Independent sites, Indiafacts and Hindu Samhati, reported the incident with numerous photographs.\nWith a 27% Muslim population, enough pressure exists to tip the scales for elected officials precariously toward advancement of an Islamist agenda and make Muslims the most privileged class in West Bengal. In some areas, such as the border district of Murshidabad, which is over 63% Muslim, de facto shariah is imposed on all residents. The vast majority of political candidates, elected officials and law enforcement leadership are Muslim and the economic prospects for Hindus dim as Muslims refuse to patronize non-Muslim businesses.\nChief Minister Mamata Banerjee, who has received official visits from Hillary Clinton and several U.S. ambassadors, offers a prime example of a political leader who expediently favors Muslim constituents, capitulates to their many demands and entices them with special benefits and privileges. The reality of Muslim vote bank politics, whereby an entire Muslim community votes along lines dictated by the local imam or religious leader, adds to the problem and furthers Muslim control of the state. Banerjee has gone so far in her Muslim sympathies as to publicly recite the Kalima Shahadat, the Islamic conversion prayer, in front of an audience of imams.\nBecause West Bengal\u2019s Muslims were largely responsible for her election as chief minister, Banerjee has made substantial payback. She approved and validated the academic degrees of 10,000 previously unrecognized Saudi-funded and controlled madrasas (Islamic colleges) four minarets (Muslim towers), honorariums for imams and an exclusively Islamic township. Banerjee called for the establishment of Muslim medical, technical and nursing schools with special subsidies for Muslim students, as well as Muslim-only hospitals. She has favored Muslims to the extent of distributing free bicycles and rail passes to female Muslim students and laptops to Muslim boys. Banerjee\u2019s political party, the All India Trinamool Congress (TMC), will most likely send more Islamists to serve in parliament in the future. Reportedly, jihadist sleeper cells inhabit the area under her protection. Meanwhile, the needs of Hindu refugees from Bangladesh are ignored, even as they continue being victimized in West Bengal.\nIn June of 2014, Mamata Banerjee made a highly questionable appointment, Rajya Sabha, to the upper house of the Indian Parliament. Despite multiple warnings from the District Intelligence Bureau that had red-flagged him for instigating violence against Hindus, including alleged participation in the Kolkata and Canning riots and sheltering known terrorists, she selected Pakistani Hassan Imran to serve as MP. Imran is a founder and self-admitted member of the radical student group, the Student Islamic Movement of India (SIMI), a recognized terrorist organization banned by the Indian government. He founded and edited a radical weekly magazine, Kalam, which he later turned into a daily newspaper, Dainik Kalam, and sold to the Saradha Group, a financial conglomerate with ties to West Bengal government officials. The publication has advocated for the establishment of Muslim-controlled areas in the state under shariah. Hassan has close ties to local Islamist leaders and has worked with Jamat-e-Islami (JI), a pro-Saudi jihadist group supported by Pakistan\u2019s Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI). He also has ties to a chief official of the Islamic Development Bank, a Saudi entity that has financed Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood affiliate, the Council of American Islamic Relations (CAIR), an unindicted co-conspirator in the Holy Land Foundation terrorism funding trial in the United States. JI and the ISI have been linked to efforts to take over the Indian state of Assam and separate it from India.\nThe Saudi-funded terrorist group Jamaat-ul-Mujahadeen, also linked to MP Hassan Imran, has a major base in West Bengal, including bomb-manufacturing units, and has used Wahhabi money to build mosques throughout the state. The Muslim call to prayer is blasted by loudspeaker from early in the morning to late at night and some thoroughfares in the Muslim districts of Kolkata are closed to all traffic for Friday prayers.\nRecently, Hassan and other associates of Mamata Banerjee were implicated in a financial scandal \u2013 a Ponzi scheme with the Saradha Group \u2013 and things are starting to unravel for the chief minister. A major investigation of a consortium of 200 private companies that collected between $4 \u2013 6 billion from over 1.7 million depositors before it collapsed, may bring down her reign in West Bengal. Her MP appointee, Hassan, is believed to have acted as a liaison between Jamaat-e-Islami and the money launderers.\nHindus of West Bengal need only look across the border to Bangladesh to see their future if Muslim immigration continues and the Muslim population exceeds the current 27%. In Bangladesh, with an 89% Muslim population, ethnic cleansing persists unabated, Hindu land is forcibly captured and Hindu homes and businesses looted. People are commonly beaten with no police intervention. Hindus have been tortured and forced to pay the jizya, a tax that non-Muslims are required to pay for protection against Muslim terrorism. Hindu girls, even married women, have been raped, mutilated, kidnapped, enslaved and forced to marry Muslim men. Law enforcement authorities are often complicit in the activities and provide no protection or recourse. Victims are typically threatened if they report incidents to the police. Often, in the case of abduction, police refuse to register complaints and make claims that consensual intercourse has taken place even if the girl is 9 or 10 years old, a non-minor under Islamic standards.\nKidnapped Hindu girls who manage to escape report that they were taken to Muslim families in which relatives and friends were invited to rape them over several days while Muslim women facilitated the encounters.\nThis dire future could possibly be avoided in West Bengal, where some speculate that the Saradha financial scandal could go far in exposing Mamata Banerjee\u2019s dangerous ties to Islamists who seek to wrest control of West Bengal from Hindus. If her government falls as a result, it could be the wake-up call needed to turn the current situation around. It could also serve as an example to other countries facing increasing Muslim immigration and increasing imposition of Muslim values on non-Muslims.\nPreview YouTube video CM Ms. Mamata Banerjee adresses Imams at Netaji Indoor Stadium\nCM Ms. Mamata Banerjee adresses Imams at Netaji Indoor Stadium\nLabels: India.

Organizers of the event said more than 360,000 families have been split up due to deportations over the past year.\n\u201cOur Church teaches that the family is sacred,\u201d said George before more than 2,000 people at the North Side church on March 21 \u2026\n\u2026 Last week, the Congressional Hispanic Caucus met with President Obama and Latino lawmakers are hopeful Obama will tackle the issue later this year.\nBut according to U.S. Rep. Luis Gutierrez (D-Ill.) who attended the Chicago event, Obama did not say he would order a moratorium on enforcement measures. Gutierrez, a leading advocate for ending raids and deportations, began a 20-city national tour of prayer vigils and town-hall meetings in November. He has collected thousands of signatures on petitions asking for immigration reform. (full text).",

Please help improve the article by presenting facts as a neutrally-worded summary with appropriate citations. Consider transferring direct quotations to Wikiquote. (April 2017)\nFor the American renovation television series, see Man Caves.\nA motorcycle enthusiast's man cave\nA man cave[1] or manspace,[2] and less commonly a manland or mantuary is a male retreat[3] or sanctuary[4] in a home, such as a specially equipped garage,[5] spare bedroom,[4] media room,[6] den,[7] or basement.[7][8] The term \"man cave\" is a metaphor describing a room inside the house such as the basement or garage or attic or office, or outside the house such as a wood shed or tool room where \"guys can do as they please\", without fear of upsetting any female sensibility about house decor or design.[9] Paula Aymer of Tufts University calls it the \"last bastion of masculinity\".[9] The phrase is thought to come from the 1993 publication, Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus.[10]\nWhile a wife may have substantial authority over a whole house in terms of design and decoration, she generally has no say about what gets \"mounted on the walls\" of a man's personal space.[9] Since it may be accepted that a woman has input on the decoration of the rest of the house, a man cave or man-space is in some sense a reaction to feminine domestic power.[9]\nLook up man cave in Wiktionary, the free dictionary.\n3 Counterparts\nMan caves have multiple purposes: they are a place to be alone, to indulge in hobbies, and to hang out with male friends. It is, loosely, a male-only space to retreat to watch sports matches,[11] or play video games.[7][12] According to psychiatrist and author Scott Haltzman, it is important for a man to have a place to call his own, referring to a male area to which to retreat. Rules are relaxed; it is a place where other people's sensibilities about standards of cleanliness are not necessarily observed.[2]\nIn a sense, for married men, it is a way to recreate some of the space and freedom of their bachelor days since it was like a \"pad\" similar in feeling to a frat house game room or a college dorm room where people could come and go \"as if they owned the place.\"[2] It is where a man doesn't have to be on his best behavior, where no women are around, and where \"no one is going to make you watch your p's and q's\" and \"no one is going to ask you to explain yourself\".[2] Writer and handyman Sam Martin explained:\nMen have had an identity problem since the women's movement. They have tried to figure out who they're supposed to be. For a while women wanted them to be more sensitive, so they were more sensitive. Then women wanted them to be more manly. One of the things I discovered is when men have their own manspace, what they put inside of it is really an expression of who they are. Manspace is about establishing an identity for a man. Our premise is that women have control of the look and the feel of the house and that left guys wanting more. Anybody who has a specific interest or hobby or work or collection is going to want a space to indulge that.\n\u2014\u2009 Sam Martin, in the Chicago Tribune, 2007[13]\nMartin thinks that any space in the house will do, even a lounge chair and a set of headphones, provided there's an agreement with one's wife or girlfriend that the space is under the control of the man.[13] The advantages of a self-contained room are that male-oriented design choices, such as \"tacky lamps\" and \"beer-can sculptures\", are out of sight of women, but in a way that doesn't disturb female sensibilities since visitors generally don't visit the man cave.[13] It's like a firehouse lounge room, but in the home.[14]\nAccording to several sources, the general architectural and design trend is for men to take traditionally male-only spaces, and enhance them with improvements and masculine aesthetic choices. Man caves can be equipped with accessories such as refrigerators,[5][15][16] vending machines,[6][15] putting greens, kegerators,[4] giant TVs,[4] musical instruments including gear such as microphone stands and amplifiers,[8][9] pool tables, boxing rings,[13] and entertainment centers. A man cave may also be fitted out with a bar and sports memorabilia such as trophies.[9][12] In the book Where Men Hide which Publishers Weekly described as an affable but only \u201csometimes thought provoking\u201d guide, author James Twitchell and photographer Ken Ross explore areas where men like to be alone.[17] According to Twitchell, some public male-only spaces, such as the barbershop, are declining, while other spaces are taking their places, and the author tries to show the attractions of the \"grimy garage.\"[17] The book suggests that \"men make their own spaces for good or ill\", according to Publishers Weekly.[17] Twitchell focused on communal man cave spaces such as male-only groups in megachurches, possibly a modern-day replacement for declining attendance at male-only clubs such as Masonic lodges.[18] Twitchell noted that some anthropologists have speculated that these spots are a place for men to bond before hunting or war, and where they can \"smoke or fart\" and tell the \"same jokes over and over again.\"[18]\nOne man redecorated the space to look like a replica model of the bridge of the Starship Enterprise from the TV show Star Trek.[13] Upscale sports-themed furnishings are also available to outfit a man cave.[6] These rooms are also often decorated by the male, with little or no female influence. The room must be large enough (greater than 20 sq ft) to easily accommodate a big screen television, which is useful for watching sports games with buddies.[9] Since it is an area set off from the rest of the house, it's possible to make noise, or yell at the television, without fear of reprisals from a wife, girlfriend or mother.[9]\nGarages have typically been a man space since they're often lit by \"harsh fluorescent bulbs\" and lack heat or air conditioning but nevertheless present a guy with an \"opportunity to disappear for hours while never leaving the premises.\"[2] There are some reports suggesting that some men are likely to \"lavish time, money and attention on fixing this spot up\".[2] Places in houses which have been typically associated with male-oriented chores, such as garages, basements and sheds which have not been \"particularly welcoming spaces\" when shared with storage items and garbage, are being fixed up to be more suitable as full-time living spaces, with more thought to design and planning.[13]\nOne man cave of a Gillette corporation executive has a desk, \"a chess board that's always set up, never used\".[9] But sometimes there are limits; his wife has not yet agreed to let him smoke cigars in it.[9]\nCounterparts[edit]\nSome ladies have set up \"women-caves\" for such things as crafts.[19] Sometimes they are known as girl-caves.[20] The term \"she-sheds\" is becoming popular in recent times. Some analysts have described the manosphere as an online counterpart to the man-cave.[21]\nIn the book by Sam Martin, entitled Manspace: A Primal Guide to Marking Your Territory, the author suggested there were several spots from pop culture:\nAl Bundy's garage from the TV sitcom Married... with Children: Al Bundy's garage was his only sanctuary. It was also used to hold No Ma'am meetings.\nTim Taylor's garage in the TV sitcom Home Improvement: Tim Taylor used to \"bring to life all manner of high-powered monster machines.\"[2]\nBada Bing room in the TV show The Sopranos: Tony Soprano's gang would meet in a windowless \"dingy office\" at the Bada Bing strip club.[2] It was a \"guys-only place within a guys-only place.\"[2]\nDoug's garage in the TV show The King of Queens, Doug Heffernan's garage is equipped with a big screen TV, beer fridge, and a couch where Doug and his friends watch football, baseball, and boxing and drink beer in peace away from Doug's wife, Carrie, and Doug's father-in-law, Arthur Spooner.\nManSpace (TV series)\nMan Caves, a home renovation program specifically targeted in the creation of man caves.\n^ Goodman, Michelle (May 2, 2008). \"Why he needs a room of his own\".

Bosworth on Japanese American removal and incarceration that had the distinction of being the first to use the term \"concentration camps\" in its title. Published by W. W. Norton, the book served as an introduction to the topic for many Americans, particularly Sansei coming of age in the 1960s.[1]\n1 Book and Author Overview\n2 Reaction and Impact\nBook and Author Overview\nAccording to an account by W.W. Norton & Co. managing editor Merrill Pollack, the book's origins stem from his memories of the 442nd Regimental Combat Team from his time as an infantryman in World War II and his subsequent discovery of the mass incarceration of Japanese Americans. Reminiscence with an old army buddy in the early 1960s led to Pollack's decision to do a book on the subject, necessitating a search for a suitable writer that took a year. Through literary agent Marie Rodell, Pollack was introduced to Bosworth.[2]\nAuthor Allan R. Bosworth (1901\u201386) was a novelist, journalist, and career naval officer. A native of Texas, he first enlisted in the navy in 1922. After his discharge in 1925, he worked as a journalist for various newspapers in California, most notably with the San Francisco Chronicle where he was a news editor and later managing editor. He was also commissioned in the naval reserves in 1927, serving as an intelligence officer. Called back to active duty just prior to World War II, he investigated wartime espionage cases. He remained in the military through the 1950s and did a nearly six-year stint in Japan and Korea, rising to the rank of captain. In addition to his journalism and military careers, he pursued fiction, published over 500 short stories and several novels, with his first, the western themed Wherever the Grass Grows (New York: Doubleday, Doran) published in 1941 and his best known, The New Country (New York: Harper) published in 1962. One of his books, Ginza Go, Papa-san (Rutland, Vermont: Charles E. Tuttle, Company, 1955) is a humorous autobiographical account of his time in Japan, with illustrations by Nisei cartoonist Jack Matsuoka.[3]\nAmerica's Concentration Camps provides an overview of the Japanese American removal and incarceration, outlining the chain of events that led to the incarceration, the main story lines of incarceration, and a discussion of its meaning and aftermath. The chapters on the causes of incarceration begin with a summation of prewar history of Japanese Americans and the decades of racism they endured, drawing heavily on prior works by Carey McWilliams, Jacobus tenBroek, et al, Morton Grodzins, and Stetson Conn. The discussion of Tule Lake and related topics rely heavily on The Spoilage, and there is little on The Salvage in general. Though relying heavily on secondary sources, Bosworth does also use a handful of interviews with Japanese Americans and some of the key architects of the exclusion, as well as some unpublished (and insufficiently cited) writings by Japanese Americans and the files of the Pacific Citizen.\nThough sympathetic to Japanese Americans, the book praises the Japanese American Citizens League and their wartime strategy of cooperation effusively and its claims of Nisei success echo the \"Model Minority\" characterization prevalent at that time. \"It should be remembered that as a minority group they achieved full and sovereign status not by demonstrations or sit-ins, not by parading with placards, not by resistance and riots,\" writes Bosworth.[4]\nAt the same time, the book makes a point of the injustice of the mass removal and Supreme Court decision on the Korematsu case that means that \"no minority group in this country is really safe, today, from federal search, seizure, and impoundment. Nobody is safe, under certain conditions, from unexpected detention and incarceration.\"[5] Given the events of that time, he explicitly cites the possibility of a round up of Chinese Americans if the American people are not vigilant.\nNorton published America's Concentration Camps in February 1967. A mass market paperback edition published by Bantam Books appeared in 1968. In 1983, a Japanese translation of the book was published by Shinsensha.\nReaction and Impact\nThe book was widely reviewed in popular newspapers and magazines, most reviewers praising the book and adding some comment about the wrongness of the incarceration and importance of the story. For instance, Emerson Chapin in the New York Times calls it a \"readable, sound and well-documented account of this 'dark stain on American history',\" Time Magazine calls it \"a story that bears retelling,\" and Herbert Mitgang in The Saturday Review calls it an \"important story.\" Kirkus Reviews and Time Magazine also criticize Bosworth's sometime angry prose, the former commenting that \"Occasionally Mr. Bosworth's emotions do overcome his generally equitable prose,\" and the latter changing that his \"angry account lacks not only literary grace but balance. As he fulminates against this lapse of democracy, the author descends to the irrationality that caused it.\"[6]\nNot surprisingly given its valorization of the organization, the JACL strongly promoted the book. Ads touting it as \"The Book You've Been Waiting For\" graced the Pacific Citizen in late 1966, and the book was sold out of the JACL office. By January 13, 1967, PC editor Harry Honda reported that the first 1,000 autographed copies had sold out; by March 10, he reported that the JACL was on its 4th set of 1,000 books, with many chapters buying the book to give to schools and libraries. In his \"Washington Newsletter\" column, Mike Masaoka calls it \"easy-to-read, yet carefully documented\" and \"about as complete a story of the saga of the Japanese in this country as has ever been published to date.\"[7]\nGiven the distinct lack of other books on the topic at the time, it was also embraced by Asian American activists. The book was sold at rallies supporting the repeal of Title II, a precursor to the redress movement. As the first book on Japanese American wartime incarceration to use the term \"concentration camps\" in its title, it was also cited as part of the campaign led by Edison Uno and Raymond Okamura starting in 1974 to convince the community to use the term instead of such euphemistic terms as \"relocation centers.\" Historian Roger Daniels credits the book at the first popular account to incorporate the important findings of army historian Stetson Conn on how the decision to remove and incarcerate all West Coast Japanese Americans was made.[8]\nThough important for its time, America's Concentration Camps proved to the be the first of many books on this topic that would appear over the next decade and was rendered largely obsolete within a few years by more thoroughly researched accounts such as Roger Daniels' Concentration Camps, U.S.A. (1971) and Michi Weglyn's Years of Infamy (1976).\nBosworth, Allan R. America's Concentration Camps. Introduction by Roger Baldwin. New York: W. W. Norton, 1967.\nFinding aid to the Allan R.

Together, the educator network and Facebook developers created a platform capable of recommending \u201clearning playlists\u201d for each student. Shortly after, other schools were asking for access to the platform. Last school year, 19 partner schools experimented with the software as part of a pilot program.\nWith the pilot program proving to be a success, Summit decided to expand their Personalized Learning Platform to over 100 additional schools across 27 states. \u201cWhen we embarked on this journey back in September, teachers told us they were interested in personalized learning, but didn\u2019t have the resources to bring it to their classrooms,\u201d said Summit CEO Diane Tavenner.

        "raw_content": "With the Aam Aadmi Party fighting for survival, Congress struggling for an identity and the BJP seeking to hold on to its political capital, these elections will be one of the most interesting India, says Aditi Phadnis\u2026\nThere\u2019s a nip in the air in Delhi and it\u2019s not all due to the weather. As the capital prepares for elections, the last lot having been abortive, political parties can sense that it is now or never. This applies to all actors. The Aam Aadmi Party, which got the second largest number of seats in the 2013 election but snatched defeat from the jaws of victory by quitting the Chief Ministership when it realised its minority status would hamper its core agenda, has recognised that its action was a mistake and has pledged never to do it again. But the party is facing a crisis of credibility in its core constituency, the middle class.\nThe Bharatiya Janata Party has seemingly papered over internal leadership differences but short shrift given to former Health Minister Harsh Vardhan in the recent union Cabinet reshuffle has raised questions about the leadership again. The Congress party has announced a new State party chief in Arvinder Singh Lovely, but whether the party will be able to resuscitate itself is another matter. It is AAP that is bleeding the most. The party is being forced to reverse an earlier decision that those who had contested one set of elections would not be allowed to contest another: this time, both Arvind Kejriwal and Rakhi Birla are likely to fight assembly elections having lost the Lok Sabha polls. Several former MLAs who won the last election are likely to be dropped, especially those who had been vocally critical of Kejriwal\u2019s decision to resign. This raises questions about the democracy and decision-making in the party. For instance, Rajesh Garg is unlikely to be fielded as a party MLA after he posted comments on social media, criticising the party\u2019s decision to resign in Delhi.\nThe AAP is proud of its 49-day record in Government and will consciously project this: especially the initiatives relating to corruption. But it knows that while it continues to have the support of the poor and minorities, the middle class has been shaken by its decision to quit the Government. Every week, the party invites like-minded people for a dialogue at its old haunt, Jantar Mantar, to seek the views of voters on a variety of issues: education, women\u2019s safety, health care and so on. It is also determined not to repeat the old error of pitting Kejriwal against Narendra Modi: which is why it keeps resurrecting Jagdish Mukhi as its Chief Ministerial rival. The BJP continues to have leadership tussles even though these are not public any more. Party President Amit Shah has taken charge and the\nThe Bharatiya Janata Party has seemingly papered over internal leadership differences but short shrift given to former Health Minister Harsh Vardhan in the recent union Cabinet reshuffle has raised questions about the leadership again. The Congress party has announced a new State party chief in Arvinder Singh Lovely, but whether the party will be able to resuscitate itself is another matter. It is AAP that is bleeding the most.\naccent is on booth-level campaigning. There are 12,000 polling booths in Delhi. A poll management monitoring team, comprising 150 BJP leaders, has been detailed with overseeing and monitoring the party\u2019s election management work at the booth level. Ministers have also been given election charge. The December 2013 Delhi assembly election had yielded a hung verdict. The BJP, along with its ally Akali Dal\u2019s one seat, had won 32 assembly seats and emerged as the single largest party in the 70-member Delhi assembly. The AAP won 28 seats and the Congress won eight.\nIn the April-May 2014 general elections, the BJP won all seven Lok Sabha seats in Delhi, registered a lead in 52 assembly segments and won 47 per cent of the vote. The party is buoyed by this and believes that no major change is needed in strategy. The recent communal tension in two regions in Delhi also suggests how important it is for the ruling party to register a victory in the national capital. However, it is the Congress that could spring a surprise. Under Lovely, there is a new resolve in the party. Internally, it is realistic: it would be enough if the Congress were to retain the seats it won in 2013, but winning more will be a bonus. The party is eyeing 13 to 18 seats and will change many of the candidates. Some surprise newcomers could be President Pranab Mukherjee\u2019s daughter Sharmishtha (who might contest from the Greater Kailash constituency); Latika, the daughter of former Delhi Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit; and Shoaib Iqbal, who is the latest newcomer in the Congress and has been a game-changer in the Muslim-dominated Old Delhi region.\nLovely is trying hard to keep factionalism down and ensure everyone works together. At the recent Talkatora Garden conclave of the Congress, Rahul Gandhi was seen having an animated discussion with Lovely and no other Delhi leader. He is receiving unstinted support from Ajay Maken. But the Congress is yet to decide what it has to sell: it was virtually absent from Trilokpuri, the resettlement colony of the Dalits (Balmikis) created and nurtured by the Congress itself in 1975.

        "raw_content": "*first of all, sorry for my bad English*\nHmm...you know, I feel tonight is different. I swear, I don't do anything certain. Right now I'm just Tweeting, listening to music, and watching tennis on TV. But, to me, tonight is very, very special.\nBecause of Google.\nWell, I Googled some nice articles, and they were really, really touching. Too touching. I didn't cry, but my heart was melted.\nThen I realized what I've done at the age of 14. Yes, I will be 15 in just few days, on May 25 for exact. But before I leave this age, I want to know about things I have done.\nA lot of things happen when I'm 14. I celebrated my 14th birthday just a day before I got released from hospital. For my birthday I got a lot of lovely presents. From my family, my friends...and I still keep them.\nAnd I've been more mature than before. I understand and realize things I didn't before. Many things, good things, bad things. As a teenager of course I'm still looking for an identity, but I start to find parts from it at this age. Good parts, bad parts.\nI also start to find out what I want, who I am, where I want to be. The answers are on my mind, I keep them private.\nA lot of surprising things happen. Once I asked God, \"Why me?\" because of those things. He gave me the answer days, or weeks later. I found it after watching the Australian Open final (yes, I'm not joking).\nI know He wants me to be a fighter. I've always idolized fighters (for example: Justine Henin), because to be strong and fighting is one of the hardest things to do. All of those things will make me stronger than ever, if I believe they will. And I do. I'm stronger now. When a lot of girls cry over things like boyfriends and others, I keep standing proudly and think about a lot more important things. A boyfriend I'd love to have, but not now. Maybe when I'm older. Now I have a lot of things to think about, a lot more important things. I'm not saying that the other girls are weak or I'm much stronger than them, but well...I'm quite different. And I love it, I love to be different.\nNow I'm in progress to be a real fighter. I enjoy my days, not thinking about something silly, and not easy to give up. If bad things happen, I'll fight and find out that God has some plans behind. Still, I cry sometimes, but it's normal for a human being, you know. I cry, but only over things I think are important. I even laugh, sometimes, to prove that there is always a comedy behind every tragedy. In crucial situation, I never lose my sense of humor. Why do I have to cry when I can laugh?\nI know God will grant my prays, to be a strong person. Life is full of things, good things, bad things. And one of the ways to face it, is to be strong. We've seen a lot of successful people suffered from a lot of things in their pasts. But they made it into success, because they are strong.\nI write this sentence on my heart, on my mind, on my life, on my steps: \"I have to be strong.\"\nOk, enough with those words. Adios!\nDiposkan oleh Mentari Sandiastri di Tuesday, May 11, 2010",

        "raw_content": "A grant from Epilepsy Research UK will allow researchers to study a specific type of brain cells in hopes of identifying a new therapeutic target to treat absence epilepsy, a form of the disease that mainly affects children.\nThe \u00a329,300, 18-month grant to a team of investigators, led by Mark Wall, PhD, at the University of Warwick, will fund research on a possible link between loss of glial cells in the brain and absence epilepsy, which is marked by episodes of brief, sudden loss of consciousness, and can be accompanied by convulsive seizures. Patients with more than 200 episodes per day are considered to be at a severe status of this disease.\nChildren with absence epilepsy do not always respond to anti-epileptic therapy, which greatly affects their daily life, especially in school.\n\u201cOur work will hopefully identify a new therapeutic target to treat absence epilepsy and increase understanding of the disease,\u201d Wall said in a press release. \u201cThe findings from this project will give important new information about how absence seizures arise, and may reveal new targets for the development of more promising treatments. The methods used will also be useful for the screening process of anti-absence seizure drugs in the future.\u201d\nThe research project will focus on the brain\u2019s glial cells because their main responsibility is to support and feed neurons and ensure that neuronal communication is properly maintained. Epilepsy is caused by faulty propagation of electrical stimuli among neurons, and the research team expects to find a loss of glial cells as an underlying mechanism triggering abnormal neuronal inhibition and the occurrence of absence seizures. The team will use several different experimental techniques to uncover the specific cell population causing excessive inhibition in the thalamo-cortical circuit, a neuronal network that has been shown to be inhibited during absence seizures. Finding what exactly causes this type of seizures is of great importance for the development of specific treatments targeting absence therapy without affecting the surrounding healthy neurons.\nEpilepsy Research UK also awarded six other grants aimed to support research and treatment development in epilepsy.\n\u201cResearch not only improves the lives of people right now, but will also improve the lives of the many people who will develop epilepsy in the future,\u201d Mike Rich, chief executive of Epilepsy Research UK, said. \u201cResearch is essential if we are going to find a cure, new treatments, or greater understanding of the condition. At Epilepsy Research UK, we provide the funding for the research that will help change lives.

There is no known research involving magistrates in England, despite their role in care proceedings. This study aimed to explore the experience of magistrates making decisions in care proceedings involving parents with learning disabilities. Four family court magistrates took part in a semi-structured interview. The findings suggest that the magistrates in this sample perceive a distinction between themselves and others in terms of their ability to accommodate complexity in conceptualising learning disabilities. The ability to appreciate such complexity was considered important by magistrates in them adopting a more proactive role when presented with expert opinion. Four main influences were spoken of when determining the best interests of the child: timescale and age of the child, expert opinion, parenting abilities and support. Participants indicated how their experiences with people with learning disabilities outside of the court system have impacted on their role within care proceedings and have shaped their awareness of the limits of their own knowledge. Magistrates indicated a general need for more training about learning disabilities. Limitations and implications for practice are discussed.\nKollinsky, L\nThis is the accepted version of the following article: Kollinsky L, Simonds LM, Nixon J.

        "raw_content": "Cherry Picked - Project chronicles lives of 'new farmers' who do things the old way\nProject chronicles lives of 'new farmers' who do things the old way\nLAWRENCE \u2014 As historically one of the top 10 agricultural-producing states, Kansas and farming are often considered synonymous.\nYet, most of that perception involves wide-open rural farming plots on several acres of flat land. With large industrial and some corporate farming so prevalent, especially in the Midwest, Americans have become more physically distant and also less aware about where their food comes from.\nAgainst that stereotype, in recent years, independent farmers have cropped up in the state that is home to many large-scale farming operations.\nThree University of Kansas researchers are chronicling the lives of these independent farmers who are trying to break into farming, especially with some reliance on some techniques and tools that might be more common in a museum today than out in the field.\n\"In sharing these stories about Kansas farmers with people from across the country researching sustainable agriculture, they were really surprised that these kinds of things are happening in Kansas, too,\" said Paul Stock, assistant professor of sociology and environmental studies. \"Many had suspected it was all wheat and corn and large-scale confined cattle, but they said it was great to hear.\"\nBryon Darby and Tim Hossler, both assistant professors of design, collaborated with Stock on the project, \"New Farmers: An Observation of Today's Independent Kansas Farmer,\" and in April they presented at the Spirit of Sustainable Agriculture conference at Harvard University.\nThe KU researchers have produced a website about the project, in addition to a video and a newspaper with photos and descriptions of Kansans who were relatively new to the farming profession and sustainable agriculture movement. Newspapers are also available to the public upon request.\nThey have conducted interviews with dozens in eastern Kansas who farm on typically smaller plots of land in near-urban settings or who have a high level of involvement with local community-supported agriculture networks.\n\"As researchers with different skill sets and backgrounds, we are trying to understand who these people are that are entering farming in what is a very tough time to be a farmer,\" Stock said. \"Some who have been doing this the longest really were building the architecture for local and regional sustainable foods systems. There's a building element to this that people identifying not just for their livelihoods but saying we think this is important for the community, for access to local food, for soil health, ecological improvements.\"\nThe project chronicles accounts of farmers who have gone to lengths to finance their own land and farming operations.\nThe Bauman family, which operates Bauman's Cedar Valley Farm near Garnett, sells produce regionally and also has worked on building an infrastructure near the communities of Garnett, Ottawa and Princeton, including working with grocers, starting farmers' markets and buying a meat-packing plant to save jobs in the area.\nThere are others featured in the project who operate on a much smaller scale and utilized the city of Lawrence's Common Ground Program for community gardening and urban agriculture.\n\"There are some farmers who may have farming in the family to some degree, or maybe what they're attempting is a different track, a different model, or a different idea of what farming is,\" said Darby, who also has an appointment by courtesy in environmental studies. \"Everyone we've talked to is hoping or trying to make farming their livelihood.\"\nThe photographs and media as part of the project focus on older techniques, though many do use newer technology, such as iPhone applications and other methods to operate strategically. A photo of Bob and Joy Lominska of Hoyland Farm near Lawrence resembles the famous Grant Wood \"American Gothic\" painting.\n\"I do come from a farming family. Hearing their stories and these photos really reminds me of our family photographs,\" Hossler said. \"This is not really a new kind of farming. It's more going back to the old way of farming.\"\nA common thread among all the farmers is an independence of larger agricultural systems that leads them to focus on local food systems and the farm-to-table movement. Many of the farmers are fixtures at area and local farmers markets that offer fresh produce and a community atmosphere as well.\n\"Certainly the unaffiliated aspect and positioning themselves outside the norm, which I think is an identity thing, is important to these farmers,\" Darby said.\nIn addition to the focus on sustainability and a local food movement, the multimedia project has also brought to light some of what attracted people to farming.\n\"When I was gardening, it was more of a relief to be in nature, and then as it became more of a profession, it was day in and day out,\" said Jessi Asmussen, a grower with Mellowfields Urban Farm in Lawrence. \"So it's become my work, and certainly I am reminded all the time that I am in nature.\"\nAlso the image of a farmer, simpleton or a hick, as agrarian activist Wendell Berry has noted, is prevalent, especially in today's popular culture.\n\"Farmers are almost completely ignored, the expectation, both in academic literature and the wider public is that farming is going to just disappear as a profession. We're going to mechanize it. Somehow we'll still get food,\" Stock said. \"Yet somewhere here we're confronted with people who are voluntarily leaving other professions to farm. They're saying, 'I want to do this. I want to raise my family in this way. I want to work as partners in this.'\"\nA Starter Grant from The Commons with funds from the KU Office of Research and a Collaborative Research Grant from the KU Hall Center for the Humanities supported the project.\nThe research team has applied for the Dorothea Lange-Paul Taylor Prize through the Center for Documentary Studies at Duke University.\nTop photo: John, Joanna, Ivan and Steve Bauman talk with University of Kansas researchers on Bauman\u2019s Cedar Valley Farm near Garnett. The Bauman family is active in building a sustainable food infrastructure in the Garnett, Ottawa and Princeton region, and they were featured in the New Farmers Project on experiments in contemporary farming by KU researchers Bryon Darby, Tim Hossler and Paul Stock.\nTop right: Kevin Prather works in a field at Mellowfields Urban Farm in Lawrence.\nCenter right: Bob and Joy Lominska re-enact a version of Grant Wood\u2019s \"American Gothic\" painting on the Hoyland Farm near Lawrence.\nBottom right: Ben and Peter Buller stand in a field at the Buller Family Farm near Lawrence.\u200b",

Now that it hasn't, it appears the Vikings can stop worrying about changing times.\nThe NFL announced today that the Vikings/Panthers game in Week 14 would stay at 12:00 on CBS. They flexed the New York Giants/Dallas Cowboys game to 12:00 (from 3:25) and moved the New Orleans/Jacksonville game to 3:25.\nIn terms of distribution, the non-flex actually will help the Vikings. They will be the main game on CBS that day at 12:00 up against Colts/Bills and Raiders/Chiefs. A majority of the country will end up taking the Vikings game.\nLooking at the future Vikings schedule past that and it appears that they won't have to worry about being flexed from here out.\nFollowing the Carolina game, Minnesota returns home to host the current 5-6 Cincinnati Bengals in Week 15. Chances are that game won't move with Steelers/Patriots set for the 3:25 slot on CBS. Sunday Night Football seems out of the question with the Cowboys/Raiders on the schedule, and the best flex option at this point being Rams/Seahawks to move.\nMinnesota is set to play at Lambeau Field against the Packers on Saturday, December 23. The NFL's rule is that games scheduled for Thursday, Saturday, or Monday night cannot be flexed. Thus, the Vikings/Packers game cannot be flexed out of that spot.\nChicago comes to Minnesota to close out the regular season again this year. Chicago will have nothing to play for which almost makes it certain that the game won't move out of the 12:00 spot. Since the NFL has switched to division games in Week 17, the Sunday Night Football game has traditionally been between two teams fighting for one spot in the playoffs. Panthers/Falcons and Cowboys/Eagles are more likely to move to 3:25 or Sunday Night Football before the Vikings/Bears game moves.\nMake your plans as scheduled for the rest of the regular season with the Vikings.\nWeek 13: @ Atlanta, 12:00, FOX\nWeek 14: @ Carolina, 12:00, CBS\nWeek 15: vs. Cincinnati, 12:00, CBS\nWeek 16: @ Green Bay, 7:30, NBC (Originally scheduled game.

The audience will not agree with your ideas or be convinced of your approach if it is only based on your opinions.

The first one where you are giving your opinion or the second one that contains a strong and clear fact about the problem.\nIt is evident from the example that you must have clear and strong facts related to the issue if you want to convince the audience of your ideas.\nThe other thing to remember is that an argument is unavoidable when you are supposed to write an argumentative paper. You should not avoid topics that welcome controversy or have the ability to outrage your readers. Even if you have to write something that would have a group disagree with you at school, you need to go ahead and write it. When you have strong evidence to prove your stance, there is no reason why you should avoid it. The purpose of an argumentative paper is to build controversy and debate.\nWhen you have to write your paper about school, do not go ahead and try to copy others. You are already in a school and observe its environment. You have to make sure that you discuss a situation valid and relatable for your audience. You may take ideas from other sources but it is important that the situation is applicable to your own school. For example, if your school does not have a gym facility, you should compare others and write why your school should have it.\nExample topics to consider for an argumentative essay on school\nBullying on campus needs to have serious action against it\nSchools should not have uniforms\nStudents taking part in sports should have some flexibility in academics",

        "raw_content": "PBC Summer Nights presents Jamie McDell\nSat 15 Dec \u201912, 10:00pm \u2013 3:00am\nJamie McDell (acoustic).\nBrazilbeat Sound System;\nDJ Hitman;\nDJ JOS\u00e9.\nMusic in 2 rooms, visuals on the Dome Cinema screen.\nTickets onsale at Blitz Surf Shop, Wainui Rd and http://www.dashtickets.co.nz/event/ck15r2zq9\nSince the release of her first single \u2018You\u2019ll Never Take That Away\u2019 in February, 2012 has been a whirlwind year for singer songwriter Jamie McDell! Her highly anticipated debut full-length album, Six Strings And A Sailboat, has just been released on November 16th.\nFeaturing #1 NZ singles \u2018You\u2019ll Never Take That Away\u2019, \u2018Rewind\u2019 and the new single \u2018Life In Sunshine\u2019, the 13-track album showcases New Zealand\u2019s brightest new songwriting talent.\nHailing from the northern surf town of Mangawhai, Jamie McDell has always surrounded herself with the simpler things in life, like music, and the ocean. From surfing to diving to living on a sailboat in the Mediterranean for a number of years as a child, the shark-obsessed, dolphin-possessed water baby never strays too far from the beach, or her guitar.\nIn early 2012, at 19 years old, she appeared out of the ether as her popularity grew from a rapidly expanding YouTube and social network fan base.\nA constant video blogger, Jamie\u2019s collection of songs she had written began to cause a stir on YouTube as she entered a phase of penning new songs almost as furiously as she was uploading them. With her unique cover versions of tracks from The Black Keys, Six60 and U2 and various mash-ups of contemporary pop hits, she was twice picked up by popular US-based tween website Disney Dreaming. Her cover of One Direction\u2019s \u2018One Thing\u2019 for influential US =based blog website Perez Hilton\u2019s \u2018Can You Sing?\u2019 competition was recognised as an honourable mention and Perez made a positive comparison to successful singer/songwriter Jewel. \"Jamie McDell's cover reminds us of Jewel. And that's a good thing!\"\nWith a voice and lyrics that display an emotive, earnest nature similar to Taylor Swift and a songwriting style reminiscent of Hawaiian acoustic guitar folk-man Jack Johnson, Jamie McDell\u2019s songs are unashamedly pop and undoubtedly some of the country\u2019s best loved. Six Strings And A Sailboat is the album that Jamie McDell has been writing for as long as she knew how to play a guitar.\n\u2018This album is made up from my favourite songs that I've written throughout my life. I see it as kind of diary entry into some of the experiences I've had, things I've learnt, and what's important to me. Each of the songs has it's own story so they're all very honest and have come from a real place.\u2019\nAs Jamie McDell\u2019s repertoire grew so did her online popularity and the success of \u2018You\u2019ll Never Take That Away\u2019 was a revelation and confirmed the NZ public\u2019s approval of her summery, honest pop style. After its release in February 2012 the song swiftly climbed to #9 on NZ\u2019s overall airplay chart and spent 4 weeks at #1 on the NZ Singles chart. It was subsequently certified as a Gold single and has had over 170,000 views on YouTube.\n\u2018Rewind\u2019 followed suit soon after topping the NZ singles chart and garnering huge pop radio airplay, while the video caused another online stir for Jamie\u2019s music, with the music video climbing to over 60,000 views in no time.\nAs of October 2012 her collective YouTube views are at over 600,000 while her current Facebook following is over 12,000 likes.\nhttp://www.facebook.com/JamieMcDellOfficial",

        "raw_content": "Ethiopian Anti-Terrorism Law Used to Suppress Dissent- all Africa.com\nEthiopian authorities have held a newspaper columnist incommunicado for at least eight days under what appears to be Ethiopia's anti-terrorist law, report the Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ), Reporters Without Borders (RSF) and the Writers in Prison Committee (WiPC) of PEN International. Reeyot Alemu, a regular contributor to the independent weekly \"Feteh\", was arrested on 21 June. She is the second reporter to be picked up and held without charge in less than a week.\nAuthorities have not disclosed the reason for Alemu's arrest, but a local lawyer (who requested anonymity for fear of government reprisals) told CPJ that she was transferred into preventive detention for 28 days - the minimum period for preventive detention under Ethiopia's 2009 anti-terrorism law.\nLocal journalists said they believe Alemu's arrest could be related to her columns critical of the ruling Ethiopian People's Revolutionary Democratic Front (EPRDF). Her 17 June column in \"Feteh\" criticised the EPRDF's public fundraising methods for the Abay Dam project, and made parallels between Prime Minister Meles Zenawi and Libyan leader Muammar Qaddafi, says CPJ.\nAnother journalist, Woubshet Taye, deputy editor of the weekly \"Awramba Times\", has been held since 19 June, also at the federal investigation centre at Maekelawi Prison in Addis Ababa, says CPJ.\nThe sweeping anti-terrorism law criminalises any reporting authorities deem to \"encourage\" or \"provide moral support\" to groups and causes the government labels as \"terrorists\". When it was enacted in 2009, IFEX members expressed concern that it would become a potent tool for suppressing political opposition and legitimate criticism of government policy.\nAccording to CPJ, the law makes it difficult for Ethiopian reporters to cover the activities of Ethiopia's opposition figures and rebels without risking prosecution and a 20-year prison sentence - even though Ethiopia receives praise and assistance for participating in U.S. counterterrorism measures in neighbouring Somalia.\n\"The irony is, the government may pride itself on its efforts to fight terrorist groups, but we [reporters] will think twice before writing about it,\" said a local journalist who also requested anonymity for fear of government reprisals.\nRecently, a day after U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton visited the capital, Addis Ababa, EPRDF-ruled Parliament formally designated five groups as terrorist entities: al-Qaeda, the hard-line Somali Islamist militant al-Shabaab, the Ethiopian separatists groups Ogaden National Liberation Front (ONLF) and the Oromo Liberation Front (OLF), as well as Ginbot 7, a banned political party started by U.S.-based opposition leader Berhanu Nega.\nWiPC suggests that Taye's arrest may be linked to his perceived sympathy for Ginbot 7. \"Awramba Times\" provides in-depth political coverage.\nHuman Rights Watch reports that just this March, more than 100 ethnic Oromo Ethiopians were accused of belonging to the OLF and detained without charge after mass arrests. Reports of the arrests broadcast on Voice of America's Amharic service were jammed by the government, further raising concerns that the roundups are politically motivated.\nIn a related issue, the Ethiopian Free Press Journalists' Association (EFJA) has uncovered evidence that China has been providing technology, training and technical assistance to the Ethiopian authorities to enable them to jam the signals of dozens of broadcasters, including Voice of America.\nAccording to CPJ, the Ethiopian government has long targeted international media for providing coverage of the terrorist groups. In 2009, the Ethiopian government went as far as accusing the Kenya-based broadcaster Nation Television (NTV) of giving a platform to terrorist groups in the Horn of Africa for airing a report on the OLF. In 2008, authorities accused Al Jazeera of \"direct and indirect assistance to terrorist organisations\" after it aired an exclusive report on the ONLF. In 2007, three \"New York Times\" journalists were detained for five days for reporting on the ONLF.\nEnacted in July 2009, the anti-terrorism law contains an overly broad definition of acts of terrorism that could be used to suppress non-violent peaceful protests, and greatly expands police powers of search, seizure and arrest. The law also carries sentences of up to 20 years in prison, and provides for holding \"terrorist suspects\" for up to four months without charge.\nSOMALIA: Ethiopia- Demonstrations in Mogadishu were organized by the Governor of Benadir\nMOGADISHU (RBC) A very sensitive report obtained by RBC Radio reveals that Ethiopian government blames series of demonstrations in the government controlled districts in Mogadishu in the mid of June were organized by the Governor of the Benadir Regional Administration, Mohamud Ahmed Nor Tarzan and a group in the Council of Ministers who support Prime Minister Farmajo.\nSomalia capital, Mogadishu had seen wide demonstrations to oppose the Kampala Accord which demand the resignation of Prime Minister Mohamed Abdullahi Mohamed. The demonstrators, largely consisting of women and students but including a number of TFG forces, blocked the main streets of the capital.\n\u201cThe demonstrations were aimed to weaken the support of the international community and of Somalis for the \u2018Kampala Accord\u2019. The Ethiopia\u2019s report said.\n\u201cThe Benadir Regional Administration was using government money to cause chaos in Mogadishu as they had the previous week.\u201d Ethiopia says.\nNaming individuals\n\u201cThe organizers of these demonstrations include two former allies of President Sheikh Sharif, Hassan Ma\u2019alim and Yusuf Aynte, both MPs, who appear to feel aggrieved at being sidelined over the \u2018Kampala Accord\u2019. The report added.\nEthiopia has expressed its support for the Accord signed by the President of the Transitional Government of Somalia, Sheikh Sharif Sheikh Ahmed, and the Speaker of the Transitional Federal Parliament, Sharif Hassan Sheikh Adan, on June 9th in Kampala.\nEthiopia also worries that Somalia nationalisms were intending to call all Somalia unity, which may bring reclaim of Ethiopia\u2019s occupied Somalia territory of Ogaden region.\n500+ Ethiopian Muslims jailed (OneNewsNow.com)\nOver 500 Ethiopian Muslims jailed\nCharlie Butts - OneNewsNow - 6/27/2011 3:35:00 AM\nEthiopia is cracking down on those who have been targeting Christians, and the spokesman of one international group hopes that will bring a new level of understanding to other anti-Christian radicals. (See earlier story)\nThe Ethiopian military was needed to end the week-long rampage that began March 2. Jonathan Racho of International Christian Concern (ICC) tells OneNewsNow the suspects were rounded up and put on trial.\n\"Ethiopian courts sentenced 579 Muslims to prison terms ranging from three months to 18 years, and the court sentenced the Muslims to the prison terms for taking part in violence against Christians that left one Christian dead,\" he reports.\nMany other believers were injured, and 69 churches were burned to the ground, along with several Christian homes and other Christian properties.\n\"We also learned that an additional 107 individuals are accused of terrorism for their roles in attacks against the Christians, and the public prosecutors have brought charges against them in federal court,\" Racho explains.\nPolice are currently searching for eight people who are thought to be the masterminds behind the attacks. ICC is hopeful the prosecutions will prompt other extremists to understand that similar actions will mean consequences.\nDutch MP acquitted in 'hate' trial\nYouTube - Dutch MP acquitted in 'hate' trial: \" \"\nAl-Shabaab welcomes Zawahiri appointment\nSomalia's al-Shabaab have welcomed the appointment of Ayman al-Zawahri as the new head of al-Qaeda, the global terror group to which al-Shabaab have pledged allegiance. (Stringer/AFP/Getty Images)\nSomalia\u2019s al-Shabaab Islamist militants have welcomed the appointment of Ayman al-Zawahiri as the new head of al-Qaeda following the killing of Osama bin Laden by US Navy Seals in Pakistan last month.\n\u201cWe welcome Dr Ayman al-Zawahiri, Allah protect him,\u201d said al-Shabaab spokesman Sheikh Ali Mohamed Rage.\n\u201cWe shall work with him the way we worked with our late brother Sheikh Osama bin Laden. The blood of Osama shall not be for nothing,\u201d he said in a statement broadcast on Shabaab-controlled radio stations in Mogadishu.\nRage also issued a warning to the US. \u201cAmericans and their allies, be aware that there are thousands of Osamas who stand to fulfil the ideology of our hero,\u201d he said.\nIn recent years more than 20 Somali-Americans have left the US to fight alongside al-Shabaab and the FBI is concerned that some may plan to return to the US to carry out terrorist attacks.\nAlthough al-Shabaab has fought a fierce and bloody insurgency in Somalia it has shown only a limited capacity for attacks on foreign soil, its first \u2013 and so far only \u2013 being the suicide bombings in Uganda during the World Cup Final last year.\nAl-Qaeda in East Africa was dealt a blow earlier this month when Fazul Abdullah Mohamed, wanted for masterminding the US embassy bombings in Nairobi and Dar es Salaam in 1998, was killed in a shootout at a roadblock in Mogadishu.\nFears Yemen is the new Republic of al-Qaeda | The Sun |News\nYemen ... the new Republic of al-Qaeda\nTerror takeover fears\nHappy ... protester with anti-President slogan on his chest\nHistory professor, Oxford University\nTHE Yemen is a minefield of warring tribes and Muslim sects.\nIts strategic location, with a coastline along the Red Sea and Indian Ocean, makes civil war there such a concern for the rest of the world.\nPiracy is in business in Somalia but Yemen is better placed to raid the lucrative oil tankers and container ships en route to the Suez Canal.\nYemen has terrorists as well as pirates.

As the global priority campaign, Amnesty is exploring how digital activism, among other things, can be used by activists in the global south; including the opportunities, challenges and impacts of this. Naomi managed the 'Make Shell Come Clean' campaign which sought to address the impact of the oil industry in the Niger Delta and deployed a number of social media and online tools. In her spare time, Naomi also blogs and is an avid Tweeter.\nSummary of Naomi's position\n\"Social media is undoubtedly a useful activist tool but certainly we need to be realistic about its impact and see its role together with other forms of activism and the context its operating in. Facebook and Twitter were used by many to organise in Egypt in January this year, yet it was the people on the streets who brought about the revolution. Plus it is important to consider who has access to digital activism and what role do they have in social change - this returns a very mixed picture and one that no one can claim to be wholly positive or wholly negative.\"\nby Naomi McAuliffe \u2014 published Mar 21, 2011,",

        "raw_content": "Mikey began his directing career by ignoring the syllabus on his BA Special Effects course at University of the Arts London producing several technically experimental narrative animated shorts.\nFollowing which he directed animation commissions for clients such as Virgin, Transgressive Records, Rough Trade, Ninja Tune and Universal Records before honing his skills with an MA in Direction for Animation at the Royal College of Art in 2010.\nHis latest film 'The Eagleman Stag' made its international premiere at this years Sundance Film Festival, going on to win the 2011 BAFTA for short animation, awards at South by Southwest, Clermont Ferrand and others, as well as an upcoming nomination for a Royal Television Society award this May. He is represented by Agile Films for his commercial broadcast work and is developing other long form projects with Warp Films for 2012.\nThe British Council kindly supported my trip out to Sundance for the International Premiere of my latest short film 'The Eagleman Stag'. This was an amazing trip and really helped kick start the whole festival run for the film, currently set to screen at another 40+ festivals this year.\nYour current projects?\nAlong side a smattering of commercial things I\u2019m in the early stages of script development with Warp Films and Film 4 on my debut animated feature. It\u2019s extremely exciting; I couldn\u2019t imagine better people to be working with on this.\nWhat/who originally turned you on to film?\nAs a kid, animation was just something I naturally gravitated towards. We couldn\u2019t afford the necessary equipment to make actual films but I made tones of flick books and Plastercine models, so it wasn\u2019t until much later I started making full films. I found it encompassed a lot of what would otherwise be disparate artistic practices, photography, performance, sculpting, writing and design. It was a way for me to package all these things that I loved into one succinct parcel. It\u2019s like a Frankenstein\u2019s monster of every other art form.\nI had a pretty mind blowing moment a couple of weeks back when I received a letter from the Minister for Culture thanking me for my contribution to British film. I thought it was a joke! But as dreadfully corny as it sounds, the most wonderful aspect of Eagleman\u2019s success is being contacted by strangers who\u2019ve seen the film and been moved by it in some way. Animation can easily be seen as something very superficial and silly, but it\u2019s amazing that people have resonated and been effected by the film as much as they have. I think it\u2019s a good sign for the changing attitude of what animation can be.\nYour first job in the film industry?\nI was very fortunate in that I was taken straight from my Wimbledon BA to work as a junior Director for a Soho animation studio. Although I was pretty naive about it all, thinking I could continue doing the sort of creative stuff I\u2019d been doing on my degree in the commercial environment, it was a good learning curve and I wouldn\u2019t change a thing.\nI\u2019m not sure that what I know now is any better or wiser than what I knew then. There\u2019s a great quote by Picasso about how the older we get the less we know. I used to know it word for word.\nAn animated short called 'Hillary' by Anthony Hodgson. It\u2019s wonderfully dry, layered and strangely moving and definitely a strong reference for the narrative tone of Eagleman. Feature-wise, right now I\u2019m very much into Richard Ayoade\u2019s debut; 'Submarine'.\n'The Nightmare Before Christmas' pretty much changed my life when I saw it as a child. Although recently I\u2019ve sunk myself into lots of classic Film Noir, I guess anything from Orson Welles.\nI only saw half of it, but it was Roald Dahl\u2019s 'The Witches'. I saw it at the cinema with my mum and a friend and was very keen not to look like a wimp during all the scary bits. But my limits were breached when the Queen Witch pulls off her own face and her nose bursts out like a bald chicken wing. I ran out of the theatre crying and looked like a total wuss.\nThis film is so packed full of incredible lines that it\u2019s hard to pick one, but let\u2019s go with Captain Renalt asking Rick why he left America in 'Casablanca' 'I\u2019d like to think you killed a man. It\u2019s the romantic in me.\u2019\nAlbert Finney and Jessica Lange in the bathtub in 'Big Fish'.\nFavourite screen hero and/or villain?\nVillains! Christopher Lloyd as judge Doom in 'Who Framed Roger Rabbit'. I also love Robin Williams as Walter Finch in 'Insomnia' or \u2018The Nothing\u2019 in 'The Never Ending Story' - best concept baddie ever!\nAdam Buxton. He just exudes goodness and would make me look much cooler and funnier than I am in real life.\nFilm: The Eagleman Stag",

Scholars debate the scope of the word castle, but usually consider it to be the private fortified residence of a lord or noble. This is distinct from a palace, which is not fortified, from a fortress, which was not always a residence for nobility, and from a fortified town, which was a public defence \u2013 though there are many similarities among these types of construction. Usage of the term has varied over time and has been applied to structures as diverse as hill forts and country houses. Over the approximately 900 years that castles were built they took on a great many forms with many different features, although some, such as curtain walls and arrowslits, were commonplace.

A successful, thriving business.\nTanya Kong, co-owner of Next Level Fitness tells how she took her passion for sport and helping people achieve their goals and built it into a career\u2026\n\u201cI moved to New Zealand from South Africa six years ago. I grew up loving sports because of my dad who had a great passion for it. I remember waking up early on holidays since I was seven, and sprint training on the beach, preparing for the upcoming athletics season each year.\n\u201cThis training taught me how to set goals, how to work hard to achieve them, and most importantly that if you fail, you need to get up and try harder until you succeed. Learning and living that from an early age set me up for what was to come.\n\u201cArriving in New Zealand was a huge challenge; having to speak English 24/7 and it was also rather a culture shock. One thing that I knew I could turn to, which couldn\u2019t possibly be any different in a new country, was exercise. It helped me to achieve goals, and I also met lots of like-minded people.\n\u201cAfter making a few wrong turns, I finally found my passion in 2011 when I started my sport and exercise science studies at Wintec.\u201d\nSince completing her Bachelor\u2019s degree, Tanya has gone on to establish Next Level Fitness with business partner Dane Ladbrook (who she met while studying at Wintec). They currently own two gyms in Hamilton offering group training, fitness classes, strength and conditioning coaching, yoga/Pilates, massage, nutrition plans and more.\nA desire to extend their offerings to clients led Tanya to complete her Postgraduate Diploma in Sports and Exercise Science at Wintec in 2014.\n\u201cI wanted to further my skills in clinical exercise physiology/rehabilitation so I could offer clients a better, more specialised service.\n\u201cThe post-graduate study helps you think about things in a different way. I learned so much in one year by working with the lecturers in small groups that I couldn\u2019t possibly have gained from books or articles and I worked with the best.\u201d\nTanya lists Michelle Bridges (Australian personal trainer, author and TV personality) as one of her biggest inspirations.\n\u201cSeeing how she has grown her business, the success she\u2019s achieved and the many people she has helped is very motivating.\u201d\nHer other big inspiration is closer to home.\n\u201cStephen Burden [Wintec senior academic staff member] is a huge role model. He pushed me throughout my studies to try and get me to think outside the box and it has helped a lot in business. He is one of the most experienced and knowledgeable people I\u2019ve met.\u201d\nYou get the feeling from talking to Tanya that role models aside, she has no problem keeping herself motivated, because she genuinely cares about the work she does and the people she works with.\n\u201cMy love for sport and helping people achieve their goals is what keeps me going. The first clients I ever trained were my own parents, so seeing how training improved their quality of life was amazing.\n\u201cI came from a family where my dad was always the one training me, so to have the roles swapped around now and to be able to help him and so many others is why I do what I do.\n\u201cI love seeing people succeed. You\u2019re not only helping them achieve one goal, you\u2019re helping them to change their quality of life, and seeing the joy that it brings is awesome. You need to have the passion for it. If you don\u2019t genuinely care about people\u2019s wellbeing, then this is not the business for you. If there\u2019s something that people see straight through, it\u2019s when you\u2019re only there to receive a pay cheque.\u201d\nSo what\u2019s next for Tanya?\n\u201cMy goals are to expand the business, get a much bigger space with more trainers and physios on board, open up a few branches across New Zealand, and take over the world!\u201d\nPrevious ArticleTake aim and shoot for the stars\nNext Article Howzat!",

        "raw_content": "Council outline its plans for traffic calming measures at Scoil Mhuire, The Oaks and the Elms\nMy first question at today\u2019s (21st June) MD meeting, \u2018In light of plans for a new extension at Scoil Mhuire Secondary School in Newbridge, can the Council outline its plans to create a safe environment for both children and adults, students of Scoil Mhuire and residents of the Oaks and the Elms through appropriate and urgently needed traffic calming measures? These should include; the repainting of the yellow lines to prevent parking on and around corners across the road from the back entrance to Scoil Mhuire; the extension of the pathway from the Elms towards the back entrance of Scoil Mhuire to beyond the priest\u2019s residence to meet with the path which continues to the entrance to the Oaks; the repainting of the existing zebra crossing at the back entrance and the addition of zebra crossing lights to alert traffic to children crossing. This is an absolute necessity at peak times where congestion is bumper to bumper and ground markings are not visible; the creation of a further zebra crossing one third of the way between the back entrance and the entrance to The Oaks to allow children to cross the road safely from the Scoil Mhuire side of the road, and not between cars as they currently do; the council\u2019s response to the previous petition submitted two years ago by residents of The Oaks for ramps and the more recent submission by residents of the Oaks in December 2016 for ramps to limit speeding on the long straight route between The Elms and the entrance to The Oaks (photos available ).\nReport issued by : Mr B.Martin, Administrative Officer, Roads Transportation and Public Safety.: The repainting of the yellow lines have been placed on the Line Marking Works Programme for 2017 which will be arranged in Q3 2017. The extension to the footway is not on the Roadworks Programme for 2017 and no funding has been identified for these works. These works can be assessed for funding under Local Property Tax (LPT) / Pay Parking for 2018. The municipal district office will include the remarking of the zebra crossing in the Line Marking Works Programme for 2017 which will be arranged in Quarter 3 2017. The request for additional zebra crossing in The Oaks and request for ramps in The Oaks Estate will be referred to the Technical Assessment and Advisory Group (TAAG).\n\u2190 Regulation of Lobbying Act 2015\nUpdate regarding the Traffic Management Plans and the Town Design Statements for Newbridge and Kildare Towns \u2192",

        "raw_content": "Those who yearn for the electric catharsis of loud guitars, driving rhythms, hypnotic hooks, and the strength of shared experience have a new muse in Madame Mayhem.\nThe Manhattan born singer/songwriter and burgeoning rock icon-in-the-making has weaponized the darkness, turning it into a rallying cry for all who were ever cast aside. Songs like \u201cBroken,\u201d \u201cWar You Started,\u201d and \u201cSo Wrong\u201d are equal parts timeless sentiment, bareknuckle fury, and energized urgency. Madame Mayhem\u2019s songs rival the best of Modern Rock, early \u201890s emotive-grunge, and n\u00fc-metal angst.\nAs her name suggests, Madame Mayhem takes charge of her own anxiety, hurt, and alienation, crushing it with sheer force of will, then channeling the remaining ether into pulse-pounding anthems, instantly connecting with anyone who has struggled.\nMadame Mayhem doesn\u2019t fit comfortably in any one box, shifting seamlessly from pile driving to almost precious with skilled frenzy. In fact, Madame Mayhem boasts the arena-ready thrill of Disturbed, the soaring chest-pounding sensibility of Breaking Benjamin, the brazen, clever, and rad attitude of Pat Benatar, all delivered with the grand theatricality of Iron Maiden and the operatic thunder of Evanescence.\nAn acolyte of heartfelt melody from a young age, the classically trained singer, pianist, and guitarist studied at the Manhattan School of Music and Frost School of Music at the University of Miami. Broadway may have beckoned, but the pull of hard rock was stronger. Pairing her well heeled chops and personal theatricality with raw sonic force Madame Mayhem quickly commanded attention from iHeart Radio, VH1\u2019s That Metal Show and a powerhouse team of luminaries from the rock world.\nShe\u2019s shared stages with Sevendust, Memphis May Fire, Fozzy, and Doro. Across three exceedingly well-received albums \u2013 Ready for Me (2017), Now You Know (2015), and White Noise (2012) \u2013 Madame Mayhem worked with Russ \u201cSatchel\u201d Parrish (Steel Panther), Corey Lowery (Stuck Mojo), Ron \u201cBumblefoot\u201d Thal (ex-Guns N\u2019 Roses), and Troy McLawhorn (Evanescence) to name just a few. Her 2019 single was co-written with Keith Wallen (Breaking Benjamin) and features her longtime friends and collaborators Billy Sheehan (Mr. Big) and Ray Luzier (Korn).\nHer music has taken her into some of the world\u2019s best-known venues, like B.B. King Blues Club in New York, The Roxy in Hollywood, and a Grammy week stint at Nashville\u2019s Bluebird Caf\u00e9, to name just a few. Loudwire premiered her \u201cReady for Me\u201d music video. She\u2019s garnered very positive press in Revolver and Guitar World. The buzz has spread overseas as well, demonstrated by profiles in long-running tastemaker publications like Rock Hard, Aardschok, and Metal Hammer magazine.\nAs the fashion press observed, the look is the medium and the music is the message. The self-expression inherent in goth and glam are just more colors on Madame Mayhem\u2019s artistic palette. Black eyeliner and black leather; pink lips and sharp spikes; it\u2019s part of an arsenal as timeless as the New York Dolls or The Runaways.\nThere\u2019s no escaping the darkness. Life is full of unpleasant surprises. Real and imagined disasters, from outside forces and from within, threaten at every turn. But those who learn to control and command the chaos will triumph. This rock n\u2019 roll badass invites each audience to become the Madame of their own Mayhem. As ASX declared, \u201cShe\u2019s aggressive, outrageous, and operatic\u2026 And she\u2019s ready for you.\u201d",

He is on the list of people I would like to meet in person.\nBut here's what's crazy. I can mark that off my bucket list...BECAUSE I ACTUALLY DID MEET HIM...I was serving as an intern at a larger church, and they needed volunteers to set up for one of his concerts. So I volunteered to help.\nAnd he was there...and I was helping him carry in some kind of heavy sound stuff...and I'm like...\"Hi\". And he's like \"Hi\". And I didn't know what to say...but my wife was really a fan of his music, too...and she wanted me to get him to sign one of her CDs...they were going to have a CD signing afterwards...but I'd have to wait in line forever...\nSo I was like...\"Can I ask you a favor...I hate to even ask this...\" He's like, \"What?\" I'm like...I know you're having a signing later...I don't mean to be skipping line or anything...but I have this CD...and I have a pen...can I get you to sign it for her?\nHe looked at me...I bought out the CD and pen...he took out the insert...and he said, \"What's her name\"? I said, \"It's Julie\".\nHe wrote, and smiled as he handed it back to me. It says, \"To Julie, tell you husband I said NO SKIPPING\" Then he put a smiley face next to it and signed is name.\nWE STILL HAVE THE CD, of course.\nOne more thing...if you live near Nashville and actually want an opportunity to be in his latest music video...they are having some kind of casting call this coming Wednesday (2/21/18).

I realize it is an old article. CT posted an interview about a month ago with Andrew Peterson talking about his feelings for Harry Potter.

The adventures are very stylized and modeled from anime/manga, except very exaggerated and metaphoric. In the first one, there is a giant monster that invades his town and captures his girlfriend, and he has to rescue her from it. In another, he has to fight a group of ninja assassins at the opera house. And in another story he and his boss (a sushi chef) go on a fishing trip to catch a colossal mythic fish.\nHopefully that is enough information for somebody who has read it to point me in the right direction.",

        "title": "Future Scenarios - Collapse",
        "raw_content": "For a minority of intellectuals and ordinary citizens, unimpressed by the likelihood of Techno Explosion or Techno Stability, the logical future seems to be some kind crisis leading to implosion and the collapse of civilisation. The old adage \u201cwhat goes up must come down\u201d still has some truth but several factors lead to people jumping to the conclusion that the Collapse scenario is inevitable without thinking about the possibilities of Descent.\nSeveral factors lead to people jumping to the conclusion that the Collapse scenario is inevitable without thinking about the possibilities of Descent.Firstly there is a long tradition of millennialism in Judeo-Christian culture which periodically leads to predictions of the \u201cend of the world as we know it\u201d based on the idea that our current world is fundamentally flawed in some way. The simplicity and mostly incorrect nature of these past predictions suggest caution when considering current predictions of doom. The fable of the \u201cboy who cried wolf\u201d is sometimes cited to suggest current concerns are also false alarms. But this history also has the effect of inoculating society against considering the evidence. Exposure to a small dose of millennialism leads to resistance to the effects of larger doses. Ironically, the point of the fable is that the threat of the wolf is real but that no one takes any notice because of past false alarms.\nIronically the point of the \u201cboy who cried wolf\u201d fable is that the threat of the wolf is real but that no one takes any notice because of past false alarms. Another factor reinforcing this tendency of some to believe in Collapse is the rapid rate of recent cultural change and the very short term perspective of modern people despite the huge increase in knowledge about the distant past. Life in cities and suburbs, surrounded by technology and sustained by reliable income and debt is \"normal\" for many people in affluent counties, even though these features only emerged in the latter half of the 20th century. If future change were to sweep away this way of life, many people would see this as \u201cthe end of civilisation\u201d even if these changes were quite modest from an historical perspective. For example, a return to the conditions of the Great Depression is clearly not \"the end of civilisation\" but the idea that any downturn from the current peak of affluence represents \"the end of civilisation\", is quite widely assumed. Perhaps this reflects the egocentric nature of modern mentality where we consider our own survival and well being as being more important than was perhaps felt by past generations. It may also be interpreted as an intuitive recognition that this peak of affluence, like peak oil, is a fundamental turning point that will break the illusion of the, more or less, continuous arrow of growth and progress into the distant future.\nThere is substantial evidence that current, let alone projected human populations cannot be sustained without fossil fuels. The concept of overshoot in animal carrying capacity has been used by population ecologists to model past and potential future collapses in human populations.10 There is substantial evidence that current, let alone projected human populations cannot be sustained without fossil fuels. Historical evidence from the Black Death and other pandemics show that societies can survive significant die-off in human numbers even if they do go through great setbacks and changes as a result. Because human systems are now global in scope and integration, the more limited regional collapse of economies and civilisations in the past is not necessarily a model of the scale, intensity and likely recovery from any global collapse. Also these societies were less complex with less specialisation of critical functions. It is possible that loss of critical numbers of engineers, technologists, medical specialists or even large scale farmers in a pandemic could cause modern industrial society to collapse very rapidly.\n...but the best documented historical case, that of the Roman empire, suggests a more gradual and less complete decline process.The consideration of collapse has been strongly influenced by some ecological historians such as Catton, Diamond and Tainter. While Catton emphasises the concept of overshoot leading to severe collapse, Diamond emphasises the aspect of societal myopia leading to unnecessary collapse. Tainter provides a systemic view of how failure of energy capture strategies leads to decline in complexity that can play out over centuries. In turn, the conditions for ordinary people may actually improve when the resources devoted maintaining societal complexity are freed for meeting more basic needs. While all these perspectives and understanding are useful, I think the all-encompassing use of the term collapse is too broad a definition and inconsistent with our normal understanding of the term as a rapid and complete process. Historical examples of relatively complete and/or sudden civilisational collapse from the Minoans in the eastern Mediterranean to Mayans in Mexico are potential models for what could happen to global industrial civilisation. The best documented historical case, that of the Roman empire and Greco-Roman civilisation more broadly, suggests a more gradual and less complete decline process.\nRuins from the massive earthquake that devastated Valdivia Chile in 1960 now a wetland conservation zone. Click image for more commentary\nI don\u2019t want to underplay the possibility of a total and relatively fast global collapse of complex societies that we recognise as civilisation. I think this is a substantial risk but the total collapse scenario tends to lead to fatalistic acceptance or alternatively, na\u00efve notions of individual or family survivalist preparations. Similarly, the Collapse scenario is so shocking that it reinforces the rejection by the majority of even thinking about the future, thus increasing the likelihood of very severe energy descent, if not total collapse. Perhaps a majority of people think civilisational collapse is inevitable but think or hope that it won\u2019t happen in their lifetime. A more realistic assessment of the possibilities and adaptive responses to the Collapse long term scenario is only possible after a deep and nuanced understanding of the diverse possibilities and likelihoods of the Energy Descent long term scenario.\nNext page: 2.2.3 Energy Descent; The Ignored Scenario",

        "raw_content": "Subscription services have grown in popularity with consumers and start-ups. The standard approach often addresses an easily defined need or niche, but is not always a profitable business model: even high profile brands, such as Birchbox, have struggled. However, it\u2019s interesting to see companies use the subscription model to challenge not just ways to purchase, but the principles of ownership \u2013 and we\u2019re really seeing this in the maternity and baby category.\nAn important factor in this is the quick turnover and redundancy of garments as babies grow. And that\u2019s also true of a mum-to-be\u2019s wardrobe.\nBump Box, in Brazil, is offering a subscription box service for pregnant women. Their website explains: \u201cWe don\u2019t sell, we rent. You don\u2019t need to keep buying new clothes, just because your belly grew.\u201d Each user selects four outfits, and the following month ships the used clothes back, to receive a new pack adjusted to their next stage of pregnancy. Acknowledging that pregnant women have more than enough to worry about before the baby is due, the Bump Box relieves them of looking for clothes that actually fit.\nAnother service taking advantage of children outgrowing clothes quickly is Runchkins. The subscription based model buys back used clothes and incentivises clients to repeat purchase with a store credit. Runchkins also has the option to buy \u201cgently worn\u201d pieces at 50% discount of normal price. The service offers monthly or seasonal delivery and subscribers can put together an outfit themselves, or use a styling service that makes suggestions based on answers given in a short quiz.\nFast fashion brands are starting to realise the value in offering subscription models to baby and maternity clothes. Gap Baby is now launching their first subscription model in the USA. The outfit boxes, which will cost $70, feature six pieces of baby clothing with a retail value of $100 or more and will be sent to customers every three months. Gap is experimenting with different types of product curation within the subscription to encourage experimentation, offering the style options \u201cclassic,\u201d \u201cfun,\u201d \u201cnewborn essentials,\u201d and \u201csurprise me!\u201d\nOn the other side of the subscription spectrum is VIGGA, a Denmark-based circular system subscription box. Vigga Svensson says, \u201cKids grow, but clothes don\u2019t\u201d which inspired the creator to come up with an innovative concept that is sustainable for the environment and practical for parents. VIGGA is an ethical and organic clothes subscription box in which, for around \u00a334 per month, parents are sent outfits for the entire month. At the end of the month, all the items are sent back to VIGGA headquarters where they are washed and sanitised so they can be sent out to the next baby. This way, no environmental resources are allocated into producing new items of clothing \u2013 a single new baby jumpsuit can take up to 3000 litres of water to produce, the same amount of water one person uses during a month \u2013 creating a closed circle business model.\nAs subscription boxes start to become appealing for the general public, this particular category illustrates how fundamentally new business models can be created that make real sense to the specifics of that category. While other categories may not have the size volatility of the early years, this is a good demonstration that a subscription service doesn\u2019t need to be one size fits all.",

With a huge cast of superheroes spread across the galaxy, Marvel Cinematic Universe has gone on to dominate the big screen. In fact, these are days when the summer blockbuster movies are generally related to superhero content, or inspired by the comic books and nerd culture in one way or another. They have led to numerous imitations that try to encash their success, although, the Marvel Cinematic Universe is by far the longest running and the most successful franchise.\nEach superhero film\u2019s making requires a lot of effort, especially in view of the huge ensemble casts they have and a great deal of special effects. However, it also implies that there is a great deal of behind-the-scenes photos out there, taken to either capture a tough scene during its filming or when the cast members are enjoying a break from filming. In any case, they don\u2019t have a lot of things to do while they wait for others to capture their scenes. At times, some cast members don\u2019t require to be physically present on set to film their scenes, for example, Vin Diesel, but, when they do appear, they might have to wait a lot at times.\nWhether it be costumes which don\u2019t properly reflect the grandeur witnessed on screen, or the weird green screen moments which don\u2019t feature the movie magic or the onset selfies, there are these behind-the-scenes moments which make things difficult for Marvel. These photos take away the wizardry seen in the films, as they reveal a lot of things about the movie-making process.\n20. SCREAMING FOR THE CAMERA\n19. NOT THE MOST GLAMOROUS SET-UP\n18.

She died at the claimed age of 111 years, 7 days, but is currently unverified by the Gerontology Research Group (GRG).\nRachel was born in South Dakota, USA, on 15 June 1903. Her parents were Archibald and Emma Stewart. They were ministers, although Rachel herself would eventually become an atheist. As a teenager, she relocated to Illinois. Her journalistic career began in the early 1940s in Minnesota. She worked for the Duluth-based newspaper Duluth Herald and News Tribune.\nIn the 1950s, Rachel hosted a political radio program in Washington D.C. called \"Inside Government\". One of her interviewees was John Steinbeck (noted author of the novels \"Of Mice and Men\" and \"The Grapes of Wrath\", among others).\nShe moved to New York in 1956, where she understated her age in order to get employed by Society of Motion Picture & Television Engineers (SMPTE). She ended up working there for over 25 years.\nShe was married a few times, of which one was with the University professor Roger Hargrave.\nOn her 100th birthday in 2003, she celebrated the occasion by riding a hot-air balloon. She has attributed her longevity to \"sex, vodka and spicy food\".\nRachel Hargrave died in New York, USA, on 22 June 2014, at the claimed age of 111 years, 7 days.\nMinnesota History September 1945 (p.291)\nSMPTE 1981 (Link expired)\nRecord Online 13 June 2003\nFacebook obituary 27 June 2014\nHappy Is the New Healthy 6 January 2015\nRetrieved from \"http://gerontology.wikia.com/wiki/Rachel_Hargrave?oldid=93907\"",

The financial entity was able to keep a track of origin of the customers\u2019 power supply in real time through the blockchain technology.\nAccording to a report by TNW, the utility firm used a scalable and open-source blockchain solution known as the Energy Web Foundation to track the renewable energy sourced from two wind energy farms as well as one power station to Kutxabank\u2019s offices located in Cordoba and the Basque Country.\nIberdrola reportedly released a statement that said, blockchain was a way of determining which assets would supply energy to a certain point of consumption. The statement further added that the initiative meant that the processes of renewable energy certification were automated & sped up, with a higher degree of traceability given to certification.\nThe transaction was more transparent and secure because it was registered permanently on the platform to provide both parties the capability of auditing the results.\nFor the record, blockchain technology is quickly becoming a crucial tool for a plethora of industries, including the ones in the cryptocurrency sector. In layman\u2019s terms, the technology is a distributed digital ledger which records the transactions in a tamper-proof manner.\nInstead of all the parties in the transaction maintaining their own records, increasing the possibility more duplicate or redundant data, blockchain maintains a single master record which cannot be modified once a transaction gets recorded.\nAccording to reports, the financial terms related to the matter have not been released yet.",

        "raw_content": "Home :: eBooks :: Revolutionary Gnostic Philosophy by Samael Aun Weor\nRevolutionary Gnostic Philosophy by Samael Aun Weor\nThe digital edition of Revolutionary Gnostic Philosophy is delivered as an ePub format\nRevolutionary Gnostic Psychology deals with the Gnostic solution in regard to Final Liberation.\nIn this book Samael Aun Weor proves that the human being lives in a section of the Cosmos in which he is subject to a great number of oppressive 'laws', making our life difficult and complicated.\nThe author explains in detail our position in the Cosmos, our place in the Ray of Creation or cosmic organization, and how we can take advantage of the 'cosmic scale' (the symbolic Jacob's Ladder) in order to ascend and get out of this limiting and painful conditions, to eventually live in a world, in a cosmos, of greater freedom, away from lower laws, until we finally attain the One Law, the One Will, the One Consciousness of the Absolute.\nMore importanly, Samael Aun Weor throws light on the fact that, because of the state of the human psychic, we have a tendency to identify, sooner or later, with denser worlds, with more complicated conditions; specifically, with what the author calls the Submerged Mineral Kingdom.\nSamael Aun Weor goes on to explain that the Submerged Mineral Kingdom, with its dark forces, acts as a 'magnet', drawing human beings towards its bosom; to the extent that almost all of humanity is devoured by the Submerged Mineral Kingdom or 'planetary crematorium'.\nThe solution to this is given in this book, and can be summarized as the Revolution of Consciousness with its three cardinal factors, which are To Die, To Be Born and Sacrifice for Humanity.\nThe last part of the book is devoted to the study of the human subconscious, which is the study of the Ego itself.\nThe last chapters of the book are devoted to the science of meditation, which masterfully complements all the information which the author has given in previous chapters.\nIn this book, and in order to eliminate the Ego or Psychological I, the author lays emphasis on the need for us to keep away from any form of false ethics, with its moralistic attitudes, based on sanctimoniousness and smugness, by which Gnostic students can be easily confused and identified with. The antidote to this is always to understand and develop conscious ethics, which spontaneously allows us to free ourselves from many forms of deception and self-delusion.\nWritten in 1965, Revolutionary Gnostic Philosophy is the second Christmas Message written by Samael Aun Weor with a distinct title (the first one being Technique for the Dissolution of the I).\nAs with every Christmas Message, it contains the 'essence' or 'core' of the Gnostic Teaching for the Age of Aquarius.\n1.

Her parents, Mary Bridget (n\u00e9e O'Brien), an Irish Catholic postal clerk born in Ireland, and Thomas Walters, a builder and decorator, lived at 69 Bishopton Road, near Lightwoods Park, Bearwood.[3][4][5] The youngest of five children and the third to survive birth,[6] Walters had an early education at a convent school[7] and later at Holly Lodge Grammar School for Girls on Holly Lane in Smethwick, although she was asked to leave at the end of her lower sixth because of her \"high jinks\". In an interview with Alison Oddey, Walters said about her early schooling: \"I was never going to be academic, so [my mother] suggested that I try teaching or nursing [...] I'd been asked to leave school, so I thought I'd better do it.\"[8]\nHer first job was in insurance at the age of 15.[9] At 18 she trained as a nurse at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Birmingham, and worked on the ophthalmic, casualty and coronary care wards during the 18 months she spent there.[10] Walters decided to leave nursing, and studied English and drama at Manchester Polytechnic (now Manchester Metropolitan University) and pursued a career in the performing arts. Walters worked for the Everyman Theatre Company in Liverpool in the mid-1970s, alongside several other notable performers: Bill Nighy, Pete Postlethwaite, Jonathan Pryce, Willy Russell and Alan Bleasdale.\nWalters first received notice as the occasional partner of comedienne Victoria Wood, whom she had briefly met in Manchester. The two first worked together in the 1978 theatre revue In At The Death, followed by the television adaptation of Wood's play Talent. They went on to appear in their own Granada Television series, Wood and Walters, in 1982. They have continued to perform together frequently over the years. The BAFTA-winning BBC follow-up, Victoria Wood As Seen On TV, featured one of Walters's best-known roles, Mrs. Overall in Wood's parodic soap opera, Acorn Antiques (she later appeared in the musical version, and received an Olivier Award nomination for her efforts).\nBefore making her London stage debut in Educating Rita, Walters had worked in regional theatre, stand-up comedy and cabaret. Her first serious acting role on TV was in the classic Boys from the Blackstuff in 1982, and she broke into films with her Academy-Award-nominated, BAFTA Best Actress award-winning and Golden Globe Award Best Actress \u2013 Motion Picture Musical/Comedy award-winning performance opposite Michael Caine in Educating Rita (1983), a role she had created on the West End stage.\nIn 1985, she played Adrian Mole's mother Pauline in the TV adaptation of The Secret Diary of Adrian Mole. Walters appeared in the lead role of Cynthia Payne in the 1987 film Personal Services \u2013 a dramatic comedy about a British brothel owner.

She also appeared as Mrs. Peachum in the 1989 film version of The Threepenny Opera, which was renamed Mack the Knife for the screen\nIn 1991, Walters starred opposite Liza Minnelli in Stepping Out and had a one-off television special, Julie Walters and Friends, which featured writing contributions from Victoria Wood and Alan Bennett. In 1998 she starred as the Fairy Godmother in the ITV pantomime \u2013 Jack and the Beanstalk, alongside actors Neil Morrissey, Adrian Edmondson, Paul Merton, Denise van Outen and Julian Clary.

In 2001 she won a Laurence Olivier Award for her performance in Arthur Miller's All My Sons. She received her second Oscar nomination and won a BAFTA for her supporting role as the ballet teacher in Billy Elliot (2000). In 2002 she again won a BAFTA for her performance as Paul Reiser's mother in My Beautiful Son.\nWalters also played Molly Weasley in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (2001), Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (2002), Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (2004), Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (2007), Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (2009) and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows \u2013 Part 1 (2010) and Part 2 (2011) and got international success with it.

Also in 2006, she starred in the film Driving Lessons alongside Rupert Grint (who played her son Ron in the Harry Potter series), and later had a leading role in the BBC's adaptation of Philip Pullman's novel The Ruby in the Smoke.\nIn the summer of 2006, Walters published her first novel, Maggie's Tree.[12] The novel, concerning a group of English actors in Manhattan and published by Weidenfeld & Nicolson, was described as \"a disturbing and thought-provoking novel about mental torment and the often blackly comic, mixed-up ways we view ourselves and misread each other.\"[13] Another reviewer described the novel as \"the work of a writer who knows what she's doing. There's nothing tentative about the writing, and Walters brings her experiences as an actress to bear on the page. ... you do have the sensation of entering someone else's mind and of looking through someone else's eyes.\"[14]\nWalters starred in Asda's Christmas 2007 TV advertising campaign. She also appeared alongside Patrick Stewart in UK Nintendo DS Brain Training television advertisements, and in a public information film about smoke alarms. In summer 2008, Walters appeared in the film version of Mamma Mia!, playing Rosie Mulligan, marking her second high profile musical, after Acorn Antiques.\nWalters played Mary Whitehouse in the BBC Drama Filth: The Mary Whitehouse Story, an adaptation of the real-life story of Mrs. Whitehouse who campaigned for \"taste and decency on television\".

She said: \"I am very honoured and happy that the people of Birmingham and the West Midlands want to include me in their Walk of Stars and I look forward to receiving my star. Birmingham and the West Midlands is where I'm from; these are my roots and in essence it has played a big part in making me the person I am today\".[16] Her other awards include an International Emmy with Ben Whishaw for A Short Stay in Switzerland. She also appeared as Petula Gordino in Wood's sitcom dinnerladies.\nWalters played the late MP and Secretary of State for Northern Ireland Mo Mowlam in a drama for Channel 4 broadcast in early 2010.[17] She had misgivings about taking on the role because of the differences in their physical appearance,[18] but the result was highly praised by critics.[19][20]\nIn July 2012 Walters appeared in the BBC Two production The Hollow Crown as Mistress Quickly in Shakespeare's Henry IV, Parts I and II.[21]\nIn 2012 she worked with LV= to promote one of their life insurance products targeted at people over 50. Walters was seen in television advertisements,[22] at the lv.com website and in other marketing material helping to raise awareness for life insurance.\nWalters appeared in The Last of the Haussmans at the Royal National Theatre in June 2012. The production was broadcast to cinemas around the world through the National Theatre Live programme.\nWalters started her relationship with Grant Roffey, an Automobile Association patrol man, after a whirlwind romance. The couple have a daughter, Maisie Mae Roffey (born 26 April 1988, City of Westminster, London), but did not marry until 1997, 11 years into their relationship, when they went to New York. The couple live on an organic farm run by Roffey in West Sussex.",

        "raw_content": "This morning as I sit on my balcony with my hot coffee and cool breeze in complete and utter comfort, the word \u201camends\u201d was floating around my head. Not because I was on the 8th or 9th step of the 12-step program, but because Rob was having breakfast with someone who was, and Rob was on his list. Before he left, I tried to be the encouraging and supportive wife. Be open, be receptive, and be respectful. Remember the old Indian proverb, \u201cWalk a mile in another man\u2019s moccasins.\u201d\nAs Rob was sitting a block away at a diner, we swore we would never, EVER go to; I thought about how brave this man was. Not Rob, although he is pretty brave, the man making amends. I didn\u2019t know if I could go through that process. I didn\u2019t know if I would want to drag up the last 25 years of everything that I did wrong and how I hurt people. I started, however, making a list of people I might have offended and I was surprised how quickly the list grew.\nDoes justifying your actions mean they don\u2019t have to be on the \u201cAmends\u201d list? I don\u2019t know because I\u2019m not in the 12-step program. I went through that list in my head one by one; I came up with the one name that I couldn\u2019t justify my actions. It\u2019s a name from 5th or 6th grade that haunts me: Elizabeth Gerring.\nIn 1970 whatever, bullying was not in the front of everyone\u2019s mind like it is today. A boy named Jerome indeed bullied me. He was a bratty little kid, and he punched me in my ear, knocking my head against the brick wall of outside wall of the gym. I went home, told my dad, and he immediately put me in the car and drove us to Jerome\u2019s house. When Jerome opened the door, and my dad saw he was about a foot shorter than me, he looked at me and said, \u201cAre you kidding me?\u201d Back to the car and home we went. But that same year, I am not proud of it, I was a bully to Elizabeth.\nWe use to have these \u201cListening Stations\u201d in 5th & 6th grade; there would be 7 of us sitting around a table with headphones on listening to something. What I remember most was you could talk, and the other kids would hear it through the headphones. This is where the bullying happened. I remember chanting \u201cElizabeth Gerring is a herring\u201d and all the other kids laughing, well all except for Elizabeth. This haunts me to this day. With all the social media out there Elizabeth Gerring is a person I CANNOT find and, believe me, I have looked.\nSo, I\u2019m sorry Elizabeth, what I did to you was unacceptable and wrong. There are no excuses. I was mean and stupid, and if I could go back to Center Street Elementary School and take it all back, I would in a heartbeat.\nJust writing I\u2019m sorry doesn\u2019t make me feel any better. I doubt she reads my blog, so it seems insincere. But maybe that is what Step 9 is for, the in-person amends. It\u2019s an interesting exercise to perform, making that list. I challenge you to make your list. Whether or not you act on it is a different story. But just make the list.\nPhoto Credit: celebraterecoverycherokeevillagee.org\nPrevious Previous post: See A Penny, Pick It Up.\nNext Next post: Getting Old.",

In 1951 he returned to Vancouver and opened his own jewellery workshop, making objects with traditional Haida motifs. Reid received a Canada Council Senior Grant in 1968 that enabled him to spend a year at the Central School of Design in London, England, where he worked on advanced methods of casting in gold and silver. On his return to Canada in 1969, he set up a workshop in Montreal, where the original boxwood version of this image was carved. Reid was groundbreaking in his application of modern techniques to Haida images, and as Karen Duffek writes, \u201cThe goldsmithing techniques he commands have enabled him to push beyond the possibilities known to past masters. Through repouss\u00e9, casting, soldering\u2026Reid has extended Northwest Coast jewellery into three dimensions. Past technology only allowed shallow engraving of designs on to the metal\u2019s surface.\u201d\nThe original 1970 boxwood carving of this subject, entitled Raven Discovering Mankind in the Clam Shell, from which this work results, was considered by Reid (and many others) to be his finest work. In 1973 Reid returned to Vancouver to work on the huge yellow cedar version entitled The Raven and the First Men for the collection of the UBC Museum of Anthropology, which was completed in 1980. The Raven, the central character in the myth that this work expresses, was, according to Reid\u2019s telling of this important Haida myth, a creature with an unquenchable desire to change things and play tricks on the world. Walking along a deserted beach, and frustrated over the lack of living things to interact with, the Raven called to the empty sky - and to his delight, heard an answering cry at his feet. There was a gigantic clamshell, full of little humans, cowering in terror at his enormous shadow. The story goes on to relate how the Raven pulled the humans out into the world and transformed them into the male and female predecessors of the Haida people. Doris Shadbolt writes of this image: \u201cThe Raven discovering humankind in a clamshell marks an important point in his career\u2026because it indicated a significant break with the old tradition. Reid\u2019s verbal retelling of the story behind the carvings is marked by a sense of ridiculous and quixotic mystery which the boxwood carving captures and which seems precisely related to its size. There is humour in the huge and cocky raven squatting possessively on his prize, and in the humanoids outrageously oversized for their clamshell, while dwarfed by their unfeeling discoverer, squirming out of its murky interior or crawling back in presumed apprehension at the prospects outside. We are witnessing the precise moment marking the beginning, not only of biological existence for man but also of human consciousness and feeling.\u201d\nReid\u2019s grandmother was from the Raven clan, and he strongly identified with this character. Shadbolt writes that Reid saw the Raven as \u201cthe original wunderkind whose world-shaping, wonder-making transformations had nothing to do with pious good intentions but emerged from an improbable but fortuitous creative intuition\u2026A toughened survivor without illusions, able to cope with all the unpredictables life hurled at him, the Raven \u2013 perhaps the first existentialist \u2013 presents a world that cannot be reduced to a neat system since it is by nature illogical and unintelligible.\u201d In this rare and precious gold sculpture, which in its scale and exquisite detail parallels the irreplaceable boxwood carving, Reid has embodied this great myth, moving from the past to the present, both Haida and universal.\nThis important sculpture image is reproduced on the 2005 Bank of Canada $20 bill. The weight of the gold is 270 grams.",

        "raw_content": "To try to deal with my anger problem, I\u2019ve been in more programs than you can imagine\u2014programs in hospitals, schools, and community centers. So I have some idea of what works and what doesn\u2019t when it comes to trying to help kids get a grip on their lives. Here\u2019s a little about the programs I\u2019ve been in and what I found useful and useless in them.\nWhen I was in my very first program, I was still living with my mother. I was 8 years old. The program was located near my mother\u2019s house, which was convenient. It provided therapy for children with emotional problems.\nI only went four or five times to that program because my mother stopped taking me. I never felt comfortable there, maybe because I didn\u2019t go for very long. I didn\u2019t like talking about my problems with a person I did not know (the counselor). So I lied to her and told her that I was safe and happy at home.\nIt made me feel bad to lie, but I was petrified of my mother and I also loved her. I didn\u2019t want to tell an outsider about how she hurt me. I thought it would hurt her if I left her care.\nAfter my mom stopped bringing me there, I would\u2019ve liked it if the counselor kept calling my house and asking why my mom wouldn\u2019t bring me there anymore. It would have made me see that she had actually cared, and maybe it would have helped me open up and realize that there is a better world than the one I lived in at that moment. But I was only 8 years old and when I stopped going, I just thought, \u201cBlah!\u201d\nMy second program was in my junior high school. I met with a counselor twice a week. The counselor let us play music during my sessions and we could do almost anything I wanted. In some sessions, my twin brother Juan would come with me.\nAt the time, things were flaming between my mother and me. On our 12th birthday, I saw my mother force my brother to take off his clothing and receive 12 lashings\u2014one for each year of our lives\u2014for buying the wrong thing at the store.\nBut again, I didn\u2019t trust the counselor enough to say what was inside of me and what was going on at home. Maybe just living at home made it too hard to be open.\nMy third program was at a hospital which has a school for teens who suffer emotional problems. Basically, we were going to school on site with children in the mental health ward.\nMy beef was that the school was in a double door locked unit and it was dirty and smelled like a morgue. I felt like I was in jail there, like I was a prisoner of a war, but a war I fought with my own personal demons.\nI think it\u2019s important for programs to be in friendlier looking places than that. How do you open up and get help when you feel that uncomfortable?\nStill, I think that program helped because it made me see there were other children like me, other children or teens in the city who were also mentally ill. That made me feel more normal and less alone.\nMy next program helped me a lot. It was in a high school. We had more freedom than at the hospital school, and I formed real relationships with the faculty there. Those relationships made a huge difference in my life. They made me want to be one of the cool kids, one of the students who wouldn\u2019t snap or lose control all the time.\nThe faculty showed me that they really did care. Also, we could leave the school to buy lunch or smoke. That made me feel like they trusted me, and the freedom made me feel happier. We did fun things, like go to a fright event at an amusement park. They also had a prom for us, and took us to college fairs. We even had a student council and a student of the year.\nAfter leaving that school, though, my behavior was bad. Now I was trying to fight back, intimidating and manipulating my mother.\nThe next program provided family services and mental health services. After liking the last program so much, I knew that the people were also trying to help me, and I received them with open arms.\nI liked the staff there. I had a lot of fun with my worker, Joe Hunt. He was cool and he would tell jokes and make me feel good about myself. It was the best program I was ever in because I built a relationship with Joe based on trust and honesty where there were no phony smiles. He and the other staff actually cared, and that was the right thing they could do. They were the ones who helped get me into foster care.\nLooking back on all the programs I\u2019ve been in, it seems that what helped me most was when the staff really cared about me and I could build a relationship with them. It\u2019s also helpful to do fun things in a friendly spacious environment to help everyone feel comfortable, and to be with other kids who have similar problems, to help kids with problems feel less alone.

        "raw_content": "Building a bigger football stadium\nI got my first look today at the next big Texas high school sports venue. It\u2019s in McKinney. I haven\u2019t seen pictures of the finished product, but it\u2019s going to be a big and shiny place.\nThey\u2019re building a football stadium on the McKinney High School campus. It\u2019s going to be just a little bigger and a perhaps a good bit more expensive than a football complex that opened down the road in Allen, home of the Allen High School Eagles \u2014 who happen to be the defending Class 6A football champs in football-mad Texas.\nSo, what\u2019s the point here? A couple of things really.\nThey take their football seriously in this part of Texas. I won\u2019t say that high school football is any bigger in North Texas than it is in, say, the Panhandle or in the Golden Triangle \u2014 two communities where my wife and I lived for more than three decades.\nThe gold standard for big-time high school football \u2014 as I have measured it \u2014 still is in Beaumont. In 1984, a young high school football coach died. His name was Alex Durley. Two years earlier, he led the newly constituted Westbrook High Bruins to the Class 5A football championship. Westbrook was the creation of a merger between two high schools: Forest Park and Hebert.\nDurley was named head coach of the new school\u2019s football team. He was an African-American gentleman. Forest Park was the mostly white school; Hebert was the mostly black school.\nThe new school won and Durley became a community icon. Indeed, on the day of his funeral in 1984, all three Beaumont-Port Arthur broadcast channels carried it on live television.\nSo \u2026 yes, football is big in Texas. It\u2019s so big that communities spend serious money to build these sports venues. The Allen High stadium cost a touch more than $60 million. The McKinney High palace will cost about $70 million. They fill the Allen Eagles stadium for every home game with about 20,000 fans; McKinney\u2019s new venue will be filled, too.\nBefore we get all worked up over all this money, let\u2019s remember one thing: The voters of these two school districts approved the expenditure at the ballot box. It\u2019s their call. Who are any of the rest of us to judge, yes?\nAllen High SchoolMcKinney High SchoolTexas HS football\nPrevious PostC\u2019mon, Ms. Sadler, just say you\u2019re sorryNext PostPain continues in newspaper industry",

When companies relocate employees, they need information on the cost of living differences between cities.\u201d\nIn the top 10 list of most expensive cities for expatriates, there are only three European cities \u2013 and all in the one country. Zurich is still the most costly European city on the list (in 4th place), followed by Geneva (7th place) and then Bern (10th place)\nThe strong appreciation of the ruble against the US dollar and the cost of goods and services led to the surge in ranking of Moscow (14th place) and St. Petersburg (36th place).\nAnd as a result of the pound weakening against the US dollar following the Brexit vote, UK cities also fell in ranking: London (dropping thirteen spots to 30th place), Aberdeen (146th) and Birmingham (147th)\nCities in the US are the most expensive locations in the Americas, with New York City (9th) ranked as the costliest city, climbing two spots from last year.\nMultinational organisations are carefully assessing the cost of expatriate packages for their international assignees.\n\u201cGlobalisation of the marketplace is well documented with many companies operating in multiple locations around the world and promoting international assignments to enhance the experience of future managers,\u201d said Ilya Bonic, Senior Partner and President of Mercer\u2019s Career business.\n\u201cThere are numerous personal and organisational advantages for sending employees overseas, whether for long- or short-term assignments, including career development by obtaining global experience, the creation and transfer of skills, and the re-allocation of resources.\u201d\nMercer\u2019s 2017 Cost of Living Survey finds Asian and European cities \u2013 particularly Hong Kong (2nd), Tokyo (3rd), Zurich, and Singapore (5th) \u2013 top the list of most expensive cities for expatriates.\nThe costliest city, driven by cost of goods and security, is Luanda (1st), the capital of Angola.\nOther cities appearing in the top 10 of Mercer\u2019s costliest cities for expatriates are Seoul (6th) and Shanghai (8th)\nThe world\u2019s least expensive cities for expatriates, according to Mercer\u2019s survey, are Tunis (209th), Bishkek (208th), and Skopje (206th).\n\u2190 Global analytics firm teams up with Irish start-up for affordable wearable sports tech",

Bratman, a librarian at the Stanford University Law School. \"One in the visuals, which was faithful and true to Tolkien, and another in the script and in the general tone and style, which was so unfaithful as to be a travesty.\"\nFrom a library journal:\nThe new breed of digital illiterati exhibit a complete misunderstanding or indifference to the distinction between subscription and free online information as well as a chilling aversion to reading books. These \"scholars\" waste untold hours fruitlessly but insistently looking through thousands of Alta Vista search results, vainly hoping against hope that somehow all the right answers will tumble forth.\nThe research for a typical undergrad paper nowadays seems to consist of two hours of fruitless WWW browsing followed by a reluctant visit to the library. During this visit, one poorly formatted query is submitted to a full-text periodical database, the first five full-text articles on the results list of 800 hits are downloaded, and then it's Miller time.\nWhile we may deplore such practices, or smirk at them, the dangerous reality is that a new class of information consumer has arisen ... The inforamus is someone doing bad searches with an inadequate search engine in a morass of disorganized, incomplete, and sometimes inaccurate information, and who is perfectly happy with the results. If, as the library literature suggests, trained reference librarians answer questions correctly only half the time, how do you think the inforamus is doing?\n-- David Majka, American Libraries , June/July 2001\nSo what are you doing here?

        "raw_content": "Lighting Your Own Way in the Journey of Life\nI resigned from my job as a university professor at the Information Technology Department and came to Canada with my two daughters in September of 2005 for them to have a better future, and live in a country where women are respected. My elder daughter was just accepted into the Biomedical Science program at the University of Ottawa, and the younger one was starting grade six at the time. As a mother, I wanted the best for my daughters and for them to fulfill their dreams of becoming a doctor and a dentist someday; even if it was going to cost me my career.\nThis was a big decision for all of us, especially me. My friends and colleagues stated that I was making a big mistake, sacrificing my career as an Electronic Engineer, and helping my daughters chase their dreams when in reality there was no light at the end of the tunnel for us, and that I would return with regrets and empty hands. All these statements made me feel sad and afraid, but I was willing to give it a try for my daughters. Honestly, the move was not easy. I went from being a university professor to being invisible. I had no family or friends, and no one knew me here. There were many days where I felt lonely, hopeless, helpless, and lost; it was almost as if all that was said to me was true. Moreover, I was missing teaching and my students a lot.\nI am determined by nature and thought that the best way to get settled and learn about a new society, its people, and culture was by immersing myself in it. I had no job, but this was not going to limit me; I was not willing to build walls around myself. I decided to volunteer as a computer teacher for an organisation that provided courses in centers that help immigrant women and at women\u2019s shelters. This gave me a chance to put my skills into action and was a great outlet for my passion of teaching. It also gave meaning and direction to my life, and a new sense of belonging; it made me feel useful once again. I also had the opportunity to socialize, meet wonderful people from many different parts of the world, and make new friends. Most of all, I recognized that I am not the only one and not alone. Everyday through my teaching, I experienced how these courses really helped them overcome their fear of technology, improve their basic computer skills, connect with their loved ones across the country and the globe, as well as increase their chances of finding a job in the competitive market. My students were a source of inspiration and strength for me during those difficult days. I was no longer invisible and lost, but appreciated and valued.\nI was later hired by the organization I volunteered for, and to date I have developed new courses for different centers, trained new computer instructors, and graduated over 200 proud students. Even today, seeing those ladies accomplishments make me feel very happy and I now know that even the tiniest help can go a long way in making an impact on someone\u2019s life bi-directionally, and my students continue to impact and enrich my life for the better everyday. Personally, I feel very privileged, grateful, and satisfied to have been given the chance to contribute this way.\nAfter much struggle, we were finally getting our lives together, and settling nicely in our newly found home. One evening me and my daughters, reminisced our journey to this new country over dinner, and I told them that before we moved, many people had stated to me that there was no light at the end of the tunnel for us and we made a big mistake by deciding to move. I was very heartened by what my elder daughter said to me, she said, \u201cmommy, we don\u2019t need to see any light at the end of the tunnel, you are the light of the tunnel\u201d. This statement really hit home for me, we had come so far and I never really looked back. I recognized that I was stronger than I thought I ever was, and I now have a new outlook on life. I no longer let small hurdles and people\u2019s comments upset me. People no longer define who I am, and I have learned to tap into my newly discovered inner strength in times of weakness.\nThis journey has been a big change for my daughters as well; they have also done their share and took advantage of the opportunities given to them. My younger daughter never had a chance to go on field trips or learn how to play an instrument. On her first class trip for ice skating, her teacher was very surprised at her excitement and told me that she was like a child in the candy store. We never knew she had a talent for music either, until following a cello audition her teacher called me and asked if she could join the school\u2019s orchestra. She is now in grade 11, and plays the cello in both the intermediate and senior orchestras of her high school, participates in national competitions, and aspires to become a dentist someday. My elder daughter is also on her way to fulfilling her dreams. She co-authored a research paper that was published in the European Journal of Neuroscience last year, and is working on a master\u2019s in Cellular and Molecular Medicine with full scholarship. She has also been accepted into medical school at the University of Ottawa, and hopes to become a surgeon or an internal medicine specialist some day.\nAgainst all odds, we have now gotten over our difficulties and found happiness. We draw strength from over past difficulties as we face the future, and feel blessed to have had this experience. Our new family motto is, \u201cdon\u2019t be discouraged by what people tell you, take charge of your life, be brave, and look within yourself for the light and not others.\u201d\nIn your opinion, what are some challenges you anticipate in entering a new environment? What are some steps you can take to ease the transition, and why?\nHow could you focus on your inner strengths in times of personal weakness?\nIn what ways and situations do you let others influence you? When do you draw a line?\nThe greatest challenge for me was overcoming being invisible in a completely new environment. My family is very important for me, and seeing my daughters successful is the greatest gift to me as a mother. It is easy to feel as if you are the only one when faced with challenges, but for me volunteering in centers for immigrant women and at women's shelters really helped me see that there were others facing similar or even greater challenges. This personally normalized my situation for me and helped me focus on solutions. The term \"Bi-directionally\" in this case refers to the notion that we are influenced by others as we influence them. It is important to choose meaningful activities that will not only develop your skills but also contribute to making you better as a person.\n6:00am 6:00am Wake up, prepare breakfast for the girls Personal\n7:00am 7:00am Drop my youngest daughter to her morning cello practice Personal\n7:30am 7:30am Review my teaching schedule Business\n9:30am 9:30am Teach computer classes Business\n5:30pm 5:30pm I make dinner (I usually cook/bake with the girls over the weekend and holidays).

Thereby, helping them think about possible solutions to possible obstacles, using their current skills, by developing new ones, and finding resources to help them reach their goals. Insider\u2019s perspective: From my experience, I knew that settling was not going to be easy; however, it was much tougher than what I expected. I had lost my familiar environment and became invisible. Nevertheless, thinking about my challenges in advance helped me think of possible solutions and allowed me to create opportunities for myself, even in difficult times.\nIntent of the Question: To help the reader develop some strategies in coping with challenges. Insider\u2019s Perspective: I personally focus on this experience and reminisce it, this really gives me strength. Others may meditate, draw on past experiences, or perform a sport or a hobby.\nIntent of the Question: Sometimes it is easy to get caught in what other\u2019s say. Therefore, the aim of this question is to stimulate the reader to think of some past or imaginary situations where it would be important to rely on other\u2019s experiences; while in other instances it is best to listen to ones self. Insider\u2019s Experience: I personally find this a challenge for me even today. While it is important to learn from other\u2019s experience, it is also important to not loose sight of your own aspirations. I do ask people for advice, especially with regards to new experiences. However, I always take it with a grain of salt and bounce off the ideas with myself.\nimmigration, new environment, adjustment, volunteering, employment, job, challenge, lost, finding your way, determination, hope\niSisters Technology Mentoring",

See the attached video for some highlights from the event.\nHere are some interesting facts about FAST according to the Pasadena Police Department's website:\nAir Operations personnel respond to approximately 6,000 calls per year.\nThe average response time to a call for the helicopter is 72 seconds. The air crews were the first officers on scene approximately 35% of the time. Approximately 4,000 calls are handled each year by the air crew allowing ground officers to respond to other calls for service.\nThe Air Operations Section participates in approximately 200 arrests each year.\nIn order to participate in the FAST program, each agency has agreed to provide a qualified and motivated police officer to perform the role of Tactical Flight Officer (TFO). Following a rigorous training schedule, this new TFO works alongside a Pasadena Pilot to serve the FAST cities.\nThe Benedict Heliport is located at 2175 Yucca Lane in Altadena just off the 210 Freeway at the Arroyo/Windsor Exit.\nPomona Man Killed After He Was Impaled is Identified\nA man who died when he fell onto a fence in Pomona, impaling himself, was identified today, authorities said.\nThe man was identified as Concepcion Benitez Arciniega, who died of a chest injury where it happened, in the 2400 block of Angela Street, according to the coroner's office.\nAccording to the Los Angeles Times, the man was identified originally only as a homeless man who was living on the roof of the garage.

Forecasters said the humidity would make daytime temperatures seem even higher and that overnight temperatures will dip only to the high 70s or low 80s.\nDeath Valley was listed as the hottest spot in the country. It hit 127 degrees and could top its hottest June temperature on record of 128 degrees set June 30, 1994, according to the AccuWeather website.\nThe heat wave raises serious health concerns, according to NWS forecasters.\n\"Children, the elderly and people with chronic ailments are the most susceptible to heat-related illness. Heat exhaustion, cramps or in extreme cases heat stroke can result from prolonged exposure to these conditions,\" warned an NWS advisory.\n\"In addition, with very dry vegetation, fire danger will also be on the rise. Be extra cautious with outdoor activities that may result in fire ignitions.\"\nDr. Jonathan Fielding, director of the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health, issued a heat alert beginning Friday for the Santa Clarita and Antelope valleys, continuing through Monday.\n\"Everyone should remember to take special care of themselves, children, the elderly and their pets,\" Fielding said. \"Extreme heat such as this is not just an inconvenience, it can be dangerous and even deadly.\"\nAir quality on Friday was designated unhealthful for sensitive groups in the San Fernando and Santa Clarita valleys.\nPeople who work or play outdoors during the heat wave should schedule frequent rest breaks in shaded or air conditioned areas, according to the NWS.\n\"Heat stroke is an emergency -- call 911,\" it urged.\nThose seeking relief by visiting area beaches were being warned of above- normal surf and dangerous rip currents resulting from a long-period southerly swell.\nAn NWS advisory also reminded motorists to never leave children, the elderly or pets in closed vehicles, even briefly or with windows cracked open.\nThe NWS forecast calls for highs today of 84 in Avalon; 82 in Newport Beach; 85 at LAX; 94 in Long Beach; 94 on Mt. Wilson; 95 in downtown L.A.; 101 in San Gabriel and Burbank; 101 in Anaheim; 102 in Pasadena; 106 in Woodland Hills; 107 in Saugus; 109 in Palmdale; and 110 in Lancaster. Slightly higher temperatures are forecast for Sunday.\nNWS Meteorologist Curt Kaplan said temperatures will begin dropping slightly on Monday into the middle of next week. The trend will continue through the end of the week, \"but it will still be very warm for this time of year,\" he said.\n\"We will see very little relief,\" Kaplan said.\nWalnut Dial-A-Cab Rates Go Into Effect Monday\nFees for using the city of Walnut's Dial-A Cab program will increase Monday.\nEarlier this month, the Walnut City Council voted 5-0 to bump up the rates, citing cost overruns to the program in recent years.

The brewery has expressed interest in renting space owned by the city on West Pomona Avenue and hopes to open a tasting room, barrel room and storage facilities on the property, city spokeswoman Jennifer McLain said.\nIf the brewery succeeds in its pursuits, it could become the second microbrewery to open in Monrovia this year. Pacific Plate Brewing Co. expects to open its tasting room on Myrtle Avenue this summer.\nThough a host of procedural hurdles remain, the city is hopeful that it will be able to accommodate the brewery ahead of the completion of the Gold Line Foothill Extension.\n\"With the Gold Line extension on the horizon, staff believes that microbreweries and barrel rooms could serve as an economic stimulus to the City by capturing consumers of this expanding microbrewery market, creating jobs, and fostering growth for this emerging manufacturing cluster,\" McLain wrote in a staff report.\nThe land the brewery wants is owned by the successor agency to the MRA, and the city is must get approval from an oversight board and the California Department of Finance to sell it.\nThe city is currently working on a long-range management plan (LRMP) that will specify how the land it owns is handled moving forward. The sale of the Pomona Avenue property to Eagle Rock Brewery will be included in the plan if the City Council signs off on the lease proposal next week.\n\"We haven't yet heard from our council whether this is something they're even open to,\" McLain said.\nUnder the proposal, Eagle Rock Brewery would lease the 3,300 square foot property at 124-126 W. Pomona Ave. for six months while the city prepares a lease-to-purchase agreement. That agreement would be included in the LRMP that would go before a 7-member oversight board and then the state Department of Finance.\nEagle Rock Brewery has been \"a leader in the local craft beer industry\" and it's products are served at more than 700 locations in Southern California, according to the staff report.\n\"We're very excited that they're considering Monrovia,\" McLain said.\nPOLICE: Watch Out for Traffic on the Fourth of July\nLa Verne Police Department is reminding residents and neighbors that there will be several road closures, heavy vehicle traffic and pedestrian congestion due to the Fourth of July\u2019s festivities.\nRoad closures for the parade are scheduled to begin at roughly 9:25 a.m. and last throughout the morning.\nOfficials said they plan to post which roads will be affected next.\nResidents are also reminded that fireworks are prohibited in the City of La Verne.\nBelow is the list of the day\u2019s activities as released by the city.\n6:30 a.m. - 11 a.m. -- Pancake Breakfast\nHosted by Boy Scout Troop 411.

Tickets are required for carnival rides and are a $1 apiece, but can be purchased at a reduced price for $20 a sheet at Best Properties, 33075 Yucaipa Blvd.; White Rabbit, 35256 Yucaipa Blvd; Yucaipa Valley Chamber of Commerce, 35139 Yucaipa Blvd; or at Simpler Life, 35107 Yucaipa Blvd.\nEdison Project to Close Second Street for Three Weeks\nA Southern California Edison project will temporarily close Second Street in Claremont.\nEdison will start work July 8 on replacing its existing vault on the north side of Second Street, just east of the Claremont Library driveway, according to the city's website.\nThe construction will require Second Street to be closed for up to three weeks between Harvard and College, officials said.\nThe project will require a 12-hour power outage between midnight and noon on July 7.\n\"So. Cal. Edison has notified all affected businesses and residents of the closure and power outage,\" wrote City Manager Tony Ramos in his weekly report. \"Staff will follow up with additional notification as well.\"\nPreliminary work on Second Street to get the project prepped will take place Monday and Tuesday. The street will remain open while this work is done, officials said.\nMetro Leaves Out Gold Line Route to Claremont in Measure R Amendment\nWhile the Gold Line from the Azusa/Glendora border to Claremont still lacks funds, Metro refused to include the remaining route in its latest expenditure plan.\nThe Gold Line Foothill Extension project was dealt a blow when the Metro Board decided Thursday not to include cost information for the remaining route from the Azusa/Glendora border to Claremont in its Measure R Expenditure Plan Amendment, despite pressure from local governments and federal and state delegations.\nThe board voted down a motion by the Metro Executive Management Committee, according to Habib Balian, CEO of the Gold Line Construction Authority. Instead, the board agreed to hear a report on the issue in September.\nWhile the extension route from Pasadena to Azusa is funded under Measure R, there is a funding gap for the remaining route from the Azusa/Glendora border to Claremont. The total estimated cost for the project is $1.714 billion, according to the Gold Line Construction Authority.\nLocal representatives, including County Supervisor Michael Antonovich, Congresswoman Judy Chu and the Council of Governments, as well as the cities of Glendora, Claremont, San Dimas and Pomona, urged Metro to include the entire project in the amendment.\n\u201cUnfortunately, we were not successful today,\u201d Balian wrote in an e-mail statement Thursday.\nThree Arrested and 25 Cited During Motorcycle Sting in Diamond Bar\nA crackdown on motorcyclists in Diamond Bar Wednesday led to three arrests and 25 citations issued, according to the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department.\nDeputies from the Risk Management Bureau's Traffic Services detail conducted the Motorcycle Safety Enforcement Operation. The deputies stopped 35 riders, issued 25 citations for various violations, arrested two unlicensed drivers, arrested one with a suspended license, impounded two motorcycles for 30 days, and stored another for one day, according to authorities.\nThe purpose for the operation was to reduce the number of deaths and injuries in traffic collisions, authorities said.\n\"Extra deputies were on duty patrolling areas frequented by motorcyclists and where motorcycle crashes occur,\" officials said in a news release. \"Deputies were looking for drivers and riders who are under the influence of drugs or alcohol and cracking down on traffic violations made by motorcyclists, as well as other vehicle drivers, that could lead to motorcycle collisions, injuries, and fatalities.\"\nMotorcycle fatalities statewide increased 175 percent from 204 killed in 1998 to 560 in 2008, but the trend has changed, officials said. In 2009, there were 394 fatalities and 352 in 2010, a 37 percent decrease since the 2008 peak.\nIn the area the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department patrolled, 47 motorcyclists were injured in 1998 and 184 in 2011, a 390 percent increase, according to data the department provided.\nTwo were killed in 1998 compared to six in 2011.\nCollision data for the state show that the main causes of motorcycle-involved crashes include speeding, unsafe turning, and impairment due to alcohol and other drugs.\nThe decrease in riders killed statewide can be linked to fewer improperly licensed riders, officials said.\n\u201cThe terrible trend of rising motorcyclist fatalities has been reversed, though there is more that everyone can do to save more lives. Riders and drivers need to respect each other and share the road,\u201d said California Office of Traffic Safety Director, Christopher J. Murphy.\nThe California Motorcyclist Safety Program offers training to riders. Information and training locations are available at www.CA-msp.org or 1-877-RIDE-411 or 1-877-743-3411.\nOperations like the one in Diamond Bar were funded with a grant from the California Office of Traffic Safety through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.\nMotorcyclist in Critical Condition After Collision with Vehicle in Monrovia\nA motorcyclist remains in critical condition after he rear-ended a vehicle while traveling at a high rate of speed on Peck Road early Thursday morning, police said.\nThe motorcycle collided with the rear of a car near Peck Road and Live Oak Avenue at about 12:30 a.m., Monrovia Police Lt. Michael Lee said.\nThe injuries to the motorcyclist appeared very severe, Lee said.\n\"We were under the impression it was going to be a fatality but right now he's in critical condition,\" Lee said.\nPolice have identified the man and are in the process of trying to find family members to contact, Lee said.\nThieves Using Alarm Company Name to Break Into Claremont Homes\nCommunity group Keeping the Good in our Neighborhood is issuing a second warning to Claremont residents to beware about potential thieves posing as repairman.\nThe group reported on its Facebook page Tuesday that a person described as a young, white maile approached a home of an elderly woman claiming he was from an alarm company, and needed to make upgrades to the alarm system. Once inside, the man was able to remove items from the home.\nAccording to multiple resident reports, the male is driving an unmarked white van, and claiming to be servicing ADT alarms, changing keypads at the request of Honeywell. Although the reports have been strictly mentioning ADT, he could be using other alarm companies as well.\nPolice remind residents that if they believe they are being targeted by a thief, to call Claremont Police at (909) 399-5411, or dial 911.\nAuthorities also remind residents that contractors should only be allowed into your home to make repairs at your request. Do not allow uninvited contractors into your home.",

        "raw_content": "16. Probability and Constraints on Interpretations\nThe probability law of quantum mechanics is defined and explained. It provides severe limits on interpretations.\nSuppose we consider basic quantum mechanics, QMA, as an interpretation. It is assumed in QMA that (1) only the wave functions, which obey linear Schr\u00f6dinger equations, exist (no particles or hidden variables); (2) there is no collapse of the wave function; (3) there are no \u2018sentient beings\u2019 outside the laws of quantum mechanics; and (4) there is no a priori assumption of a probability law.\nThe states. To see the implications of these assumptions, suppose we do an experiment\u2014perhaps a Stern-Gerlach experiment\u2014on an atomic system that has n possible states. Before the measurement, the system has state\nAfter the measurement, the detector and observer states become entangled with the atomic states. Version i of you as the observer, reads the outcome of version i of the detector, which agrees with the state of the atomic system, so the state of the whole system is\nThis is the state of the universe in the many-worlds interpretation. In it, if you are the observer, there are n versions of you! Quantum mechanics does not distinguish between versions, so there is an equally valid version of you perceiving each outcome; that is, no version is singled out (within QMA) as the you.\nQMA properly implies classical perception. To see if this multiple-versions-of-you scenario gives a reasonable interpretation, under the assumption that our current perceptions correspond to those of one of the versions of the observer, we first need to check whether the perceptions of each version violate any of our experiential perceptual rules. From the section on Classical Perception, we see that each version perceives a single version of reality; that two observers never disagree; and that successive measurements are consistent. And, anticipating the results from No Evidence for Particles, we see that each version will perceive a universe that appears to be made of classical, localized particles. So the many-worlds, QMA-based interpretation, strange as it seems with its many versions of each of us, appears to do an excellent job.\nProblems with the probability law. There is, however, one major problem with the QMA scheme\u2014the |a(i)|2 Probability Law of principle [P10]. This law cannot hold within QMA. We will give a (relatively) simple form of the argument here, with supplementary arguments in Details of Probability.\nWe work from Eq. (16-2). First, the only entities that perceive in QMA are the versions of the observer, so all statements about perception must refer to the perceptions of the versions of the observer. Second, one might conjecture that only one version of the observer is \u2018aware.\u2019 But one can show (see Details) that all versions are equally aware.\nNow each version, , of the observer perceives its respective outcome\u2014by looking at the corresponding version, , of the detector\u2014with 100% probability. There is nothing probabilistic in the perception process, and there is no dependence on the coefficients in the perception process; there is simply each equally valid version of the observer perceiving its associated outcome. Thus there is no way to introduce a coefficient-dependent probability of perception into QMA.\nThe consequence is that\n[P17] The probability law cannot hold in the bare QMA scheme, where all versions of the observer are perceptually equivalent on each run.\nFurther, one version must be singled out\u2014see Details of Probability\u2014as the one corresponding to my perceptions.\n[P18] The probability law implies there must be some mechanism, not within QMA, which singles out one version of the observer as the one corresponding to my perceptions.\nIn addition, we argue in Details that\n[P19] One does not obtain a satisfactory interpretive scheme by simply adding the probability law as a postulate to the first three principles of QMA because the singling out mechanism required by [P17] is not specified.\nPrinciples [P17], [P18] and [P19] provide significant constraints on interpretations.\n[Next Page, 16a. Details of Problems with Probability.]",

The boy, Vic, and his dog, Blood, are trying to survive and, if possible, thrive. Always at the top of the list are food, sex, and entertainment.\nA Boy and His Dog is one of my favorite movies with its cheeky mix of post-apocalyptic wasteland violence and 70\u2019s\u2026 not to mention a \u201ctalking\u201d dog. It\u2019s not clear if the dog is actually talking, telepathically communicating with the boy, or if the boy is just imagining it. I\u2019m pretty sure the dog is telepathic and chooses to only speak to the boy.\nIn the post-apocalyptic future of 2024, Vic and his telepathic dog, Blood, roam the wastelands hunting for food, water and females. When Vic is lured underground by a young girl, he finds himself separated from Blood and trapped in the anachronistic society of Topeka. The Leader tells Vic he is going to be the father of a new generation, but Vic soon learns instead of hooking him up with women, the Topekans are planning to hook him up to a machine. Meanwhile Blood is above ground waiting for his human partner to return and save him from dying.\nIf you\u2019re not about old movies, you can also read the book that A Boy and His Dog is based on by author Harlan Ellison, Vic and Blood.\nThe cycle begins with \u201cEggsucker,\u201d which chronicles the early years of the association between fourteen\u2011year\u2011old loner Vic and his brilliant, telepathic dog. The saga continues and expands in \u201cA Boy and His Dog,\u201d in which Blood shows just how much smarter he is than Vic, and Vic shows how loyal he can be. The story continues in \u201cRun, Spot, Run,\u201d the first part of Ellison\u2019s promised novel of the cycle, Blood\u2019s a Rover. Here Vic and Blood find surprising new ways to get into trouble\u2014but getting out of it may be beyond even their combined talents.\nAuthor tavia.Posted on January 21, 2017 Categories Movies, While We Still Have timeTags a boy and his dog, amazon, apocalyptic, based on a book, cannibalism, comedy, drama, entertainment, Harlan Ellison, old movie, Post-apocalyptic, post-apocalyptic wasteland, rape, Vic and BloodLeave a comment on Watch Out: A Boy and His Dog [1975]\nDisaster struck and we were mostly ready\u2026\nThe last weekend of October is normally about trying not to eat all your Halloween candy before strange, disguised children can com to your door and beg for it. this year, though, it was about flashlights, candles, two-player Uno and extra socks.\nYes, my husband and I were caught in the the Halloween Snowpocalypse of 2011 (Read: An icy October snowstorm in 2011 that, combined with the weight of leaves still being on the trees, resulted in a number of broken trees and downed power lines leaving about 2.5 million homes without power.).

        "raw_content": "Sunny Spain \u2013 What To Do, What To Experience\nIf you\u2019re feeling that now is the time for a wondrous new holiday, then look no further than sunny Spain. Spain has some of the most wonderful beaches and nightlife found anywhere in Europe of course, but you\u2019d be remiss to forget the cultural and historical significance of this wonderful country.\nWe have compiled a list of the most excellent and exciting things you can do in Spain, so upon choosing this as your destination, save this article and use it as your guide. No matter if you\u2019re hoping to attend with your friends, your family or simply by yourself, you can glean some value out of the excellent recommendations about to follow:\nFind The Best Tapas\nTapas, a solely Spanish foundation method of eating, has taken immense popularity all across the world. However, if you truly want to enjoy a more authentic experience, heading to Spain is the place to be. Tapas bars exist all across the nation, but looking for it at its most wholesome is best. Of course, Barcelona attracts some of the best and most skilled tapas chef\u2019s, and often they solely specialize in this form of cooking. It\u2019s quite something to experience a tapas menu lovingly crafted by someone who has made that the discipline of their entire life. It\u2019s likely that upon first taste, the tapas you have eaten at home in your local restaurant will seem like pretend rubber food.\nThe best tapas restaurants bar none in the sunny city of Barcelona are Quimet i Quimet, El 58 and La Esquinica, all located within the centralized environment of the mid-city limits, allowing for easy access. The best part about tapas is that you can sample many different dishes over the course of one day in different restaurants, giving you a complete taste of Spain, which is often very hard to replicate in many other countries. For the foodies among you, this should be considered an absolute must.\nExperience A Holiday Resort\nHoliday homes and resorts are often beautiful no matter where you go, but in Spain, they are something else. Due to the popularity of select tourist destinations, an absolutely thriving tourist accommodation scene has sprung up around the most popular locations. This doesn\u2019t mean that you need to go for the budget hotels, as a wonderful inclusive experience can be found which provides you with so many amenities it can be hard to take it all in. Better yet, checking for holiday apartments in Spain can give you that privacy which you and your family may seriously require to experience a wonderful time in this golden country on your own, no-pressure terms.\nIn a country of immense summer tourist populations, this space to think can help you enjoy your time here to a much-expanded degree.\nGaudi, famous architect extraordinaire has an exciting amount of his work on display in Parc Guell. His work is often very interesting to see, especially among cultural buffs, as his work often celebrates and displays nature in ways not often seen in architecture since. Checking out the beauty of this architecture can fill several weeks, but often visiting the most pressing of his buildings through an arranged tour guide can give you a wonderful day of historical significance, perhaps providing you with artistic or creative inspiration, if that of course is what you are looking for.\nOf course, Spanish culture is dancing culture. Not only did Spain innovate and master certain dancing styles such as the Salsa and the Flamenco, but they pretty much have the monopoly on passionate and romantic dance attitude. If you\u2019re here with a partner, especially on honeymoon, then why not take a crash course in both of these dancing styles together? Not only are they a tremendous amount of low-pressure fun, but you might actually learn a few moves which you can bust out when your friends least expect it.\nThrough this discipline, you may learn a little more about Spanish culture than you ever thought. After all, when in Spain, dance like the Spaniards do.\nFor those who aren\u2019t a fan of tomatoes, you should steer well clear of this environment. For those who love them, heading to La Tomatina, the world renowned and arguably the most fun food fight festival in the world could provide you with plenty of fun. Once a year a massive crowd gathers to hurl tomatoes at each other and revel in the silliness of it all. Not only this, but the route is largely planned around access to some of the best bars in Valencia. Of course, this most likely brings much hesitancy to those responsible for cleaning the bars, but you can\u2019t deny that the whole affair is plenty of fun.\nIf you\u2019re looking to release some steam, and simply don\u2019t feel like contributing to the expat or holiday crowd places such as Ibiza and Magaluf attract, then finding a better venue such as this to express yourself can work wonders.\nOne of the most significant events on the summer calendar, Benicassim is a festival of global importance. Massive headliners of worldwide fame steal the show here, and the wonderful and luxurious surroundings make this festival stand out. It\u2019s the one show that you can almost guarantee will have wonderful weather to experience. If you have a heavy appreciation for music, this could be the place that really helps you nurture that love of attending festivals. People who attend this festival often find that they go back year after year, and the common cultural meme is that \u2018when you go Benicassim, you keep coming back.\u2019 Why not give it a try yourself with a group of friends, and see just how it compares to the festivals in your home country? It could just be that beautiful music sounds even better when coupled with a beautiful climate.\nWith these tips, you will be sure to explore Spain in all of its glory. Of course, there are many excellent cities and small towns to visit, but ticking off these considerations on your first visit will give you a solid and beginners understanding of what Spain has to offer, from which you can diversify further. When you do, it\u2019s likely that coming back to this location will be a habit of yours year after year.\nEuropean Travel barcelona, gaudi, spain\nPrevious Article\u2190 5 Surprising Things You Should Expect From A Family Holiday in the Alps\nNext Article5 Ways to Stay Safe from Terrorism \u2192\nhttps://inspiring-travel.com/sunny-spain-what-to-do-what-to-experience/\">",

        "raw_content": "In May 2013 the IME Board of Trustees agreed that an IME Research Committee should be formed with a view to nurturing the medical ethics research community within the UK. The founding members of the committee were: Carwyn Rhys Hooper (Chair), Anna Smajdor, Zoe Fritz and Bryan Vernon.\nThe first meeting of the new committee took place in January 2014. It was agreed at this meeting that the committee should develop a database of UK-based 'ethics experts' and should advertise academic 'events' (e.g. conferences) on the IME website. It was also agreed that the committee should organise an annual conference to enable academics, clinicians and students to present the results of their research activities in analytical and empirical medical ethics.\nThe inaugural conference ('The Cutting Edge in Biomedical Ethics Research') took place in London in September 2014. Around 90 delegates attended the conference. Many delegates were undergraduate healthcare students and postgraduate bioethics students. Academics and clinicians from across the UK also came to present their work.\nFollowing the 2014 conference Lucy Frith, Merryn Ekberg, Silvia Camporesi and Emma Nottingham joined the committee. These new members helped the original members organise the second IME research conference ('Sharpening The Cutting Edge of Bioethics in the UK'). This conference took place in Newcastle in June 2015 and followed immediately after the UK Clinical Ethics Network annual conference. Once again around 90 delegates attended the research conference and the balance of students, clinicians and academics remained stable.\nFollowing the second conference the IME Research Committee decided to work closely with the Postgraduate Bioethics Committee. This is the student committee that organises the annual Postgraduate Bioethics Conference. The Postgraduate Bioethics Committee is not a part of the IME, but the 10th Postgraduate Bioethics Conference (which took place in Manchester in September 2015) was financially supported by the IME.\nThe third IME Research Conference\u00c2\u00c2 took place in Edinburgh on 18th June 2016 immediately after the IAB 2016 Conference. We welcomed around 90 delegates from all five continents for a very successful and productive day during which students, academics and clinicians presented their work. In July 2016, Richard Huxtable, Felicity Boardman, Tom Douglas and Nathan Emmerich joined to strengthen the work of the committee even further.\nFor more information about past and future conferences please click on the 'Events' page of this website.

        "raw_content": "Digital Plant Maturity Model Digital stages for biopharmaceutical production plants By Eric Anttonen, Harmik Begi, Michael Dubs, Ian Helliwell, and Jane Selva A lthough it is a hot topic among biologics manufacturing companies, there is no consensus on what actually constitutes a \"digital plant.\" Is it a paperless plant or a fully automated facility? What makes it the factory of the future? How does this relate to Industry 4.0 and the Industrial Internet of Things? Different companies have different levels of aspiration, and so individual definitions of a digital plant vary in process and technology sophistication\u2014 all adding to the complexity of the picture. Addressing this lack of clarity by developing a single model that covers the continuum of digital maturity stages for a biopharmaceuti- cal production plant was the task of the Digital Plant Maturity Model (DPMM) team when they embarked on the project in 2016. The model describes the stages of maturity from simple paper-based plants to the fully automated and integrated \"adaptive plant\" of the future. The team that developed the model is a col- laboration comprising 20 industry experts from 11 major biopharmaceutical compa - nies. This multifaceted team has expertise in manufacturing, information technology (IT), automation, and analytics. Their strength lies in understanding not only the industry and its technology, but also the evolving biologics market and the innovations that will enable it. A description of the DPMM and how it was constructed is laid out in the white paper, \"The development of a Digital Plant Maturity Model to aid transformation in biopharmaceutical manufacturing,\" which is now available on the BioPhorum website (www.biophorum.com/ category/accelerate/white-papers). FAST FORWARD l What constitutes a digital plant, and how does this relate to Industry 4.0 and the Industrial Internet of Things? l The Digital Plant Maturity Model (DPMM) from the BioPh orum Operations Group defines the stages of maturity from paper-based plants to fully automated and integrated \"adaptive plants\" of the future. l The DPMM is not specific to the biopharmaceutical industry; it is equally applicable to small molecule manufacturing, medical devices, and other areas. 32 INTECH MAY/JUNE 2017 WWW.ISA.ORG\nhttp://www.biophorum.com/category/accelerate/white-papers",

        "raw_content": "In Erico Perez vs. Intellectual Property Office, the Court of Appeals held that the jurisdiction over violations of Section 169 of the Intellectual Property Code fall with the regular courts, and not with the Bureau of Legal Affairs of the Intellectual Property office.\nIn this case, the Court of Appeals (CA) decided on the matter of jurisdiction over an action involving Section 169 of the Intellectual Property Code (IPC) on False Designation of Origin. In particular, the CA determined which between regular courts and the Intellectual Property Office - Bureau of Legal Affairs (IPO \u2013 BLA) has authority to exercise jurisdiction over complaints of such actions.\nThe case stems from the complaint filed by the Araneta Center Incoporated (Araneta Inc.) claiming that it suffered damages as a result of Perez\u2019s registration of \u201caranetacenter.com\u201d as the dominant name of his internet website. Perez, in his answer, countered on two points. First, he said that the right Araneta Inc. alleged to have been violated was not an \u201cintellectual property right\u201d as defined by Section 4.1 of the IPC. Second, he said that had the action been actually a violation of section 169 of the IPC, the recourse was to file the complaint before the regular courts and not before the IPO-BLA.\nActing on the Motion filed by Perez to resolve the issue of jurisdiction, the IPO-BLA Hearing Officer, denying said motion, ruled that it had jurisdiction over the complaint and directed the continuation of the proceedings by the presentation of Araneta Inc.\u2019s witnesses. The IPO \u2013 BLA\u2019s decision was based on the powers conferred to it by Section 10.2 (a) of the IPC as well as the ruling in the case of In-N-Out Burger vs. Sehwani. Perez\u2019s motion for reconsideration was also denied.\nPerez raised the question to the CA via a petition for certiorari under Rule 65. During the pendency of the action, Perez likewise filed several motions to admit supplements to the petition due to supervening circumstances which eventually led to the issuance of the IPO \u2013 BLA decision dated November 15, 2011. In said decision, the Court found Perez guilty of violating Section 169 of the IPC.\nRuling on the petition, the CA agreed with petitioner Perez that the IPO \u2013 BLA had no jurisdiction over the action initiated by Araneta Inc. The Court gave three reasons for its decision.\nFirst, noting that the action was based on the ownership of the trade name, Araneta Center, Inc., the Court said the right involved was not one of the intellectual property rights as defined in the IPC. The Court said:\n\u201cThe enumeration of what intellectual property consist of does not include common words or names. Likewise, the enumeration does not include words, terms or names that are employed in the designation or description of the origin of goods or services. Therefore, only the items expressly mentioned can be considered intellectual property rights, certainly the trade name or business name of private respondent are excluded.\u201d\nSecond, the Court said that Sections 169 and 163 of the IPC clearly state that recourse for violations of the former provision is with the regular courts. The Court emphasized on this, citing A.M. 02-1-11-SC which designated certain Regional Trial Courts as Intellectual Property Courts and A.M. 10-3-10-SC which designated Special Commercial Courts to hear cases involving intellectual property rights.\nThird, the Court noted that Araneta Inc.\u2019s reliance on the decision in the In-N-Out Burger vs. Sehwani Inc. case was misplaced. For one, the Sehwani case and the present one are based on different provisions of the IPC. Also, the Sehwani case involved a trademark which clearly falls within the ambit of \u201cintellectual property rights\u201d as defined by the IPC. And lastly, the case gave administrative remedies only to foreign corporations of which Araneta Inc. was not.\nHence, declaring all previous decisions and actions by the IPO \u2013 BLA as null and void, the CA held that violations of Section 169 of the Intellectual Property Code should be filed with the regular courts by virtue of Section 163 and not with the Intellectual Property Office.",

        "title": "Treating Travellers in the Terminal: London Heathrow CRU Profile - IPMBA",
        "raw_content": "Treating Travellers in the Terminal: London Heathrow CRU Profile\nby Gerard Robinson\nLondon Ambulance Service (UK)\nIn October 2004, London Ambulance Service (LAS) began trialling a cycle response unit inside Terminal 4 of Heathrow, the world's busiest airport with more than 67 million passengers (and growing) annually. The purpose of the trial was to see if it would be advantageous to have an immediate responder on a bike inside the terminal building rather than dispatching a double-crewed ambulance for a patient who, more likely than not, would wish to continue his or her journey rather than attend a local casualty department. The cycle responder would attend any call - no matter how life-threatening - assess the situation, and call for support, i.e., an ambulance to convey the patient to the hospital if necessary.\nDue to the success of the trial, airport authority and London Ambulance Service executives are now in negotiations to continue Heathrow's cycle response and expand to include another two cycle response bikes in Heathrow's Central area, providing emergency cover to another three terminals.\nThe brainchild behind this trial was Duty Station Officer Alan Payne, who is based at Hillingdon Ambulance Station. Some five years ago, whilst awaiting check-in at Vancouver airport, a passenger collapsed in front of him. Within minutes of him assisting this passenger, medics on bikes approached the scene. This is where Alan's idea started.\nSince October 2004, we have been operating in Terminal 4, seven days a week/11 hours a day, using three riders on a rotating shift system. By the end of January 2005, we had responded to just fewer than 400 calls. Out of those calls, 74% were dealt with by the EMS cyclist, enabling the ambulance that would have been dispatched to be suitably deployed elsewhere. The average response time was a staggering two minutes, and the overall success of the trial has been unbelievable.\nA typical shift for any of the three cyclists commences at 05.30hrs at a small ambulance station just north of the airport with our all-important warm-up/stretching routine. After that and the bike/equipment checks are complete, we make our way to the terminals. First we proceed to the central area (Terminals 1, 2, & 3) to gain access to the Heathrow Express, the train that links the central area to Terminal 4 (just south of the airport) and also provides a direct high-speed link to London Paddington Main line railway station. Whilst in the central area, we normally respond to emergency calls as necessary.\nUpon arriving at Terminal 4, our duty really starts. Passenger levels at that time of the morning are light for check-in; however, arriving flights are at their peak, so we position ourselves at an appropriate point - closely but discreetly - so as to minimise time spent negotiating through the tired and weary passengers with only one thing on their minds, 'has my luggage arrived in the same country as me?'\nWith all the illnesses that a bike medic has deal with anywhere in the world, we are unique in some respect in that we deal with a lot of pulmonary embolisms (a blood clot that has made its way to the heart and lungs). We quickly grew to suspect that when we received a call to certain areas of our airport for the report of a male/female collapsed, we could and most probably would be dealing with one of these cases.\nLater on in our shift, our passenger volumes move slightly to what we call \"landside\" - the check-in area - prior to passport control. People queuing/rushing around to catch their all-important flights raises stress to higher than normal levels; we then have our collapses with difficulty in breathing, asthmatics, diabetics, and heart patients.\nAs our day progresses and we patrol the terminal, passengers and staff alike approach us on a casual basis to ask questions regarding our presence in the terminal and our function/role as medics in the terminal. We have a facility to restock any consumable items of equipment, so as to reduce down time to a minimum. Towards the completion of our shift, we make our way back to the ambulance station, where we warm down, replenish our fluid levels, and end our shifts.\nGerard has been with LAS since 1983 and has been working on a dedicated ambulance at Heathrow since 1994. He completed the IPMBA EMSC Course in 2004, and is currently serving as the coordinator of the airport cycle response team.",

        "title": "A Newbie's Guide to Publishing: Copycatting",
        "raw_content": "I have a dirty confession to make.\nWhen my agent was shopping my first Jack Daniels book around to publishers, she compared it to Janet Evanovich. When Hyperion bought the series, they compared it to Janet Evanovich. I also began comparing my books to Evanovich's, because hers had a female lead and were funny, as were mine, and many people told me they were similar. Reviewers mentioned it. Blurbers mentioned it. My publisher thought enough of the comparison to make my book covers brightly colored, easily mistaken at a distance for those of the Divine Miss E.\nI'd always intended to read Evanovich. Really. But as my career took off, I spent all my time reading for blurbs, or to help newbies, or the books of my friends, and I never got around to reading any Janet. Even though I continued to compare my books to hers.\nI recently had an offer from Benbella books to write an essay about Janet Evanovich for an upcoming book. I like Benbella (they are releasing a collection of James Bond essays this summer, which includes a funny one by me) so I said yes.\nIn order to write this essay, I thought it prudent to read the Stephanie Plum series. Which I've been doing. And it has shocked me. Why?\nBecause my writing is awfully similar to Janet Evanovich's.\nIf someone reads Janet's books, and then my books, they could easily think I was imitating her. But I'm not. It would be a neat trick, copying someone I've never read.\nStill, some of the similarities are eerie. Stephanie's screwed-up life is similar to Jack's, her Grandma Mazur is similar to Jack's Mom, her partner Lula is similar to Jack's partner Herb, Ranger is similar to Phin, and the goofy characters and the dialog strike similar chords.\nI wondered how this could be. First I considered evolution, and common ancestors.\nWhen I was younger, I read Robert B. Parker, and Ed McBain, and John D. MacDonald, and Rob Kantner, and Dave Barry, and Lawrence Block. If I was imitating any writing styles when I first started out, it was their styles. Perhaps it was the same for Ms. Evanovich. If she's a Spenser fan, that could be the link; we both imitate Parker. What's strange is that when you read Parker's Sunny Randall books, they seem like much more of a rip-off of Evanovich than my books, but in reality they are just a female version of Spenser.\nPerhaps there are only so many ways to create likeable series characters. They should be flawed, somewhat neurotic, have goofy larger-than-life sidekicks, and the same goals and dreams that all people have. It is possible, even likely, that similar books can arise independent of one another.\nThe Jack books have some Robert Parker type wisecracks in them. They also have some Thomas Harris scares and some Richard Stark noir. But ultimately, they are Konrath. At this point in my career, my style is my own, and I like to think it's pretty distinguishable. And, hopefully, some new writer is reading my stuff and imitating the hell out of it.\nAs for Janet---the first nine books in the series are a lot of fun. If you like Jack, check them out.\nstay_c said...\nSeriously??? I love Janet's books (and they do get better after the slump) but I never would have compared them to yours.\nJames Lincoln Warren said...\nWhat do you mean, when I was younger, I read Robert B. Parker, and Ed McBain, and John D. MacDonald, and Rob Kantner, and Dave Barry, and Lawrence Block.\nYou don't now? Gee. Although I admit I don't read Robert B. Parker anymore.\nBTW, I also think that Jack is a lot like a female Harry Bosch, which is good, and a role I don't see Stephanie Plum in at all.\nI think we'll all start to worry about you being a copycat when you publish \"How Jack Daniels Kissed Off, Went Nuts and Took a Life.\"\nYour style is your own. And we like it that way.\nJanet has said she was strongly influenced by Robert B. Parker and Spenser.\nThat aside, you guys are pretty easy to distinguish. Yes, female main character with no life, which describes 80% of crime fiction; your sidekick is goofy rather than deadly, which I suppose separates you from Robert Crais, early Harlan Coben, Robert B. Parker, but many serious main characters have humorous sidekicks; elderly foil or relative--how about Sue Grafton and Sara Paretsky, to name two major ones?\nNo, I really don't think you're that similar.\nThis is why I avoid reading books which are anything like what I'm writing. Even if I do, by chance, happen to sound like anybody else, I know it'd just be coincidence. Just like you know you couldn't have copied Janet Evanovich even subconsciously, since you'd never read her books. But imagine if you had? Then you'd probably start wondering.\nEarly on, I was afraid of reading too much crime fiction in case my idea was too similar to something already out there. I wanted to be able to pass a lie detector saying I didn't copy anyone else.\nFrom initial feedback from the few people who've read the first book, I've had a 'reminds me of Michael Connelly' and 'your style is like Julia Spencer-Fleming.'\nI have four of Michael's books here, but haven't read any yet, or any JSF. But I've met Michael and he's nice and popular, so I'm just going to take it as a real compliment.\nI think you should stop fixating on Janet and keep writing about Jack. The only similarity I see (and I've been reading Janet long before I ran into Jack Daniels) is that you both like to torture the hell out of you victim--I mean lead character. Jack appears smarter and more of a loner. (so far) So stop thinking and just write! Its almost June and I'm waiting......\nBoy, I'm a big Janet fan but I never thought that your stuff was at all similar to her's. Yes, you have some similar characters, and Jack's life is as screwed up as Stephanie's--but Jack's storyline always stays grounded in reality, while Stephanie's often veers into outlandish.\nI read a couple of the Stephanie Plum books, back when Avon was going to make an offer, but wanted me to rewrite Super Mom as a mystery series. Up until then, I'd never read a mystery in my life, so I figured I'd go to the best known women's mystery writer at the time and start there. I thought they were fine, funny and fast, but I don't think that yours are that similar, honestly. You're much more, um, descriptive with your gore, you know - your books are more about the crime, it seems to me, than hers are. And every heroine in fiction these days has something of a messed up life - and honestly, if you're going to have your heroine grow, you have to start from that point, don't you? So don't worry about it. There's plenty of room for you both!\nAnd all this time I thought you WERE Evanovich.\nCheck out the Lincoln Rhymes series via Jeffery Deaver.\nThey're likeable... but I don't think either has hokey sidekicks.\nThen again, you don't laugh all that much when you read Bone Collector or The Invisible Man...\nI've been a huge Parker fan for 25 years and have read every Stephanie Plum book at least twice.\nI would never compare your style to either Parker or Evanovich. All three of you are great in different ways.\nGranted, I've only read Whiskey Sour (the others are on order) but I think the writing and voice are unique to you.\nI found this ironic because Janet Evanovich and you are my two all-time favorite authors. You both know how to do fiction RIGHT and give your reader's pure entertainment. PLEASE keep doing what you do. Love you guys.",

        "raw_content": "Aerospike Open Sources Visionary Database That Operates at In-Memory Speed and Global Scale With Enterprise-Grade Reliability\nAerospike Inc. today announced open source licensing for the Aerospike in-memory NoSQL database. The Aerospike client software development kit (SDK) is licensed under the Apache License, Version 2.0, and the Aerospike database server is licensed under the Affero General Public License (APGL). The first database to be built from the ground up to take advantage of modern processors and flash memory, Aerospike operates at in-memory speed and global scale with enterprise-grade reliability. This move gives entrepreneurs and enterprises access to the same horsepower as proprietary in-house database technology built by Internet giants, such as Google, Amazon and Facebook.\nThe Aerospike database has already helped companies in the digital marketing sector grow from start-ups handling gigabytes of data at tens of thousands of transactions per second (TPS) to global-scale operations managing terabytes of data and billions of objects at millions of transactions per second. Fast on the heels of these early adopters, enterprises in retail, financial services, and telecommunications are now also scaling their applications.\nAerospike was built by developers who had worked at Internet companies and experienced the limitations of relational and first-generation NoSQL databases. Brian Bulkowski, Aerospike co-founder and CTO, explained, \u201cWe founded Aerospike because we wanted to simplify scaling and empower all developers\u2014not just the few who worked at companies with deep enough pockets to build their own technologies.\u201d\nSrini V. Srinivasan, Aerospike co-founder and vice president of engineering and operations, added, \u201cNow that Aerospike has been in production non-stop for close to four years in some of the world\u2019s most data-intensive environments, we are fulfilling our commitment to developers by open sourcing the technology and expanding our community.\u201d\nProven in Production, Powering Some of the Largest Real-Time Bidding Exchanges and Digital Marketing Platforms\nAerospike has established a reputation for being the database of choice for user stores and ID-mapping stores in real-time bidding (RTB) and digital marketing. The modern architecture for Internet enterprises consists of Aerospike as the real-time \u201csystem of engagement\u201d behind a Web application tier and in front of a Hadoop cluster. Insights from Hadoop analytics are periodically moved into Aerospike and combined with \u201chot analytics\u201d in Aerospike to give consumers precisely what they want at the moment it matters most.\nApplications are now also facing overwhelming pressure from mobile devices, exceeding the capacity of caches and existing databases, often doubling memory requirements and the costs of scaling. This is leading more enterprises to deploy Aerospike behind their Web application tiers and in front of legacy databases.\nThe visionary Aerospike database has established many firsts:\nFirst database to scale up using a patent-pending combination of indexes in RAM and data in direct-attached flash storage, such as solid-state drives (SSDs) for near in-memory speed at flash storage prices.\nFirst database to scale out supporting mixed read/write workloads and a combination of transactions and patented \u201cindexed map-reduce\u201d technology for \u201chot analytics\u201d on terabytes of up-to-the-moment user context, such as clicks and swipes, geo-location, demographics, and audience segments.\nFirst in-memory NoSQL database to ensure enterprise-grade reliability with strong consistency and ACID properties. Additionally, because even a few seconds offline can lead to millions of dollars in lost revenues, Aerospike was designed to ensure zero downtime with manual intervention only for hardware changes and software upgrades. Proven in production in numerous global-scale deployments, the Aerospike database successfully delivers on its promise of non-stop service.\nCommunity Applauds Aerospike Move to Open Source\n\u201cAppNexus operates at massive scale, and Aerospike has given us the price, performance and reliability we need to grow our business. By open sourcing its technology, Aerospike is making exactly the right move to introduce many more developers to its technology and to inspire them to build entirely new classes of high-performance applications.\u201d \u2013 Timothy G Smith, senior vice president, technical operations, AppNexus\n\u201cAs the leading programmatic search partner marketplace, we have seen great success scaling up to handle billions of data events per day using Aerospike. Our proprietary platform demands a powerful real-time database with ultra low latency, high throughput, and predictable scalability to maintain a reliable exchange for our advertisers and publishers. In all respects, Aerospike was the right choice for us. We are thrilled that Aerospike is open sourcing their product. The widespread availability of their technology will foster innovation throughout the developer community and wider adoption by the marketplace.\u201d \u2013 Mike Yudin, CTO, adMarketplace\n\u201cAerospike has helped Chango quickly scale to handle 100 billion algorithmic decisions every day.

        "title": "Holocaust Inversion: The Portraying of Israel and Jews as Nazis",
        "raw_content": "Current: Holocaust Inversion: The Portraying of Israel and Jews as Nazis\nHolocaust Inversion: The Portraying of Israel and Jews as Nazis\nDr. Manfred Gerstenfeld, April 1, 2007\nFiled under: Anti-Semitism, Europe and Israel, Hamas, Palestinians, Radical Islam, World Jewry\nAnti-semitism, Inversion, Israel, Jews, Nazis, Symbols\nThe false accusation of Holocaust inversion-the portraying of Israel, Israelis, and Jews as Nazis-is a major distortion of history. This anti-Semitic concept claims that Israel behaves against the Palestinians as Germany did to the Jews in World War II. \u201cThe victims have become perpetrators,\u201d is one major slogan of the inverters. By shifting the moral responsibility for genocide, Holocaust inversion also contains elements of Holocaust denial.\nHolocaust inverters come from many circles. A large number are Arabs or other Muslims. Others come from the extreme Left in the West. A variety of Western mainstream public figures have made Holocaust-inversion statements, including politicians, academics, authors, as well as the occasional Jew or Israeli.\nThe portrayal of Israelis and Jews as Nazis occurs in speech, writing, and the visual media, also including cartoons, graffiti, and placards. It employs sinister characterizations, Nazi symbols, and sometimes takes the form of genocidal terminology to describe Israel\u2019s actions.\nThe motivations of the Holocaust inverters are manifold. Some aim at the destruction of Israel and seek to lay the infrastructure for its moral delegitimization through demonization. Some are extreme pro-Arabs, others anti-Semites. Yet others know little about the Holocaust, the Nazis, and contemporary Israel. For Europeans it is also an effective way to cover up for Holocaust crimes of their countries and expunge guilt by claiming that what was done by the Nazi perpetrators and their many collaborators is a common phenomenon and by now is practiced by Israelis and Jews.\nContemporary followers and admirers of Nazi methods can mainly be found in the Muslim world, but are also present in Europe and elsewhere. Prewar Palestinian Arab actors had links to Nazi Germany. Examples are the Muslim Brotherhood and the Jerusalem mufti Haj Amin el-Husseini. After World War II, many Nazis fled to Egypt and served in its propaganda apparatus. In particular, current Egyptian but also Palestinian propaganda dates back to this era.\nIn recent years the attempts to manipulate the history and memory of the Holocaust have greatly increased. For several decades there has been much focus on Holocaust denial. Misrepresentations regarding the Holocaust, however, involve many other aspects as well. The number of these false mutations of Holocaust history is expanding. Related to these is the promotion of a second Holocaust through the destruction of Israel. Mutations include Holocaust universalization and banalization, that is, comparing real or supposed misbehavior in contemporary society to what happened in the Holocaust.\nThe focus here will be on another major distortion of the Shoah, namely, Holocaust inversion, or portraying Israelis and Jews as Nazis. This anti-Semitic concept claims that Israel behaves toward the Palestinians as Germany did to the Jews in World War II. \u201cThe victims have become perpetrators,\u201d is one major slogan of the inverters.\nHolocaust inverters come from many circles. A large number are Arabs or other Muslims. Many others come from the extreme Left in the West. A variety of Western mainstream public figures have made Holocaust-inversion statements, including politicians, academics, authors, as well as the occasional Jew or Israeli.\nDefinitions of Anti-Semitism\nNatan Sharansky, when he was the Israeli minister of Jerusalem and Diaspora affairs, developed a simple formula that he called the \u201c3D test\u201d to help distinguish legitimate criticism of Israel from anti-Semitism: demonization, double standards, and delegitimization.\nSharansky included the portrayal of Israel as a Nazi state within his definition of \u201cdemonization\u201d: \u201cWhen the Jewish state is being demonized; when Israel\u2019s actions are blown out of all sensible proportion; when comparisons are made between Israelis and Nazis and between Palestinian refugee camps and Auschwitz-this is antisemitism, not legitimate criticism of Israel.\u201d2\nBy 2001 Prof. Irwin Cotler, who later became Canada\u2019s justice minister, explicitly identified the anti-Semitic character of Holocaust inversion. He pointed to several relatively new aspects of anti-Semitism such as calls for the destruction of Israel and the Jewish people, the portrayal of Israel as a Nazi state, and the discriminatory treatment of Israel through denial of equality before the law.3\nThe EUMC Working Definition of Anti-Semitism\nIn its 2004 report on anti-Semitism, the European Monitoring Centre on Racism and Xenophobia (EUMC) noted the lack of a common characterization of anti-Semitism. This led to the EUMC working definition, which has subsequently been widely accepted.4 It states: \u201cAnti-Semitism is a certain perception of Jews, which may be expressed as hatred toward Jews\u2026. In addition, such manifestations could also target the state of Israel, conceived as a Jewish collectivity.\u201d\nThe document that contains this working definition also offers examples of contemporary anti-Semitism. One of these is: \u201cAccusing the Jews as a people, or Israel as a state, of inventing or exaggerating the Holocaust.\u201d5\nThis text also states that \u201ccriticism of Israel similar to that leveled against any other country cannot be regarded as anti-Semitic.\u201d It lists examples of how anti-Semitism can manifest itself toward Israel:\nDenying the Jewish people their right to self-determination, e.g., by claiming that the existence of a State of Israel is a racist endeavor.\nUsing the symbols and images associated with classic anti-Semitism (e.g., claims of Jews killing Jesus or blood libel) to characterize Israel . . . .\nHolding Jews collectively responsible for actions of the state of Israel.6\nThe core motif of classic anti-Semitism was that Jews embody the most extreme malevolence. During the postwar era, the Nazi regime has become the paradigm for absolute evil. Comparing Israel\u2019s conduct to its actions is a new mutation of this ancient theme.\nAs anti-Semitism historian Robert Wistrich put it:\n\u201canti-Zionists\u201d who insist on comparing Zionism and the Jews with Hitler and the Third Reich appear unmistakably to be de facto anti-Semites, even if they vehemently deny the fact! This is largely because they knowingly exploit the reality that Nazism in the postwar world has become the defining metaphor of absolute evil. For if Zionists are \u201cNazis\u201d and if Sharon really is Hitler, then it becomes a moral obligation to wage war against Israel. That is the bottom line of much contemporary anti-Zionism. In practice, this has become the most potent form of contemporary anti-Semitism.7\nFrench linguist Georges-Elia Sarfati points out that the term anti-Zionism was pioneered by the Soviet Union\u2019s Information Ministry after the Six Day War. Researching the matter, he found that the word did not appear in dictionaries until the 1970s. He observes that \u201ca number of key equations dominate the anti-Zionist discourse. The master one-which transversally commands all others-is \u2018Zionism equals Nazism.\u2019\u2026 the anti-Zionist propaganda conveys that you have only to be against, for instance against Nazism-and who is not?-to be an anti-Zionist.\u201d8\nHistorian Joel Fishman asserts that \u201cinversion of reality\u201d constitutes the basic principle of current anti-Israeli propaganda, noting:\nOne of its most frequent expressions has been the accusation that the Jewish people, victims of the Nazis, have now become the new Nazis, aggressors and oppressors of the Palestinian Arabs. Contemporary observers have identified this method and described it as an \u201cinversion of reality,\u201d an \u201cintellectual confidence trick,\u201d \u201creversing moral responsibility,\u201d or \u201ctwisted logic.\u201d Because Israel\u2019s enemies have, for nearly half a century, repeated such libels without being challenged, they have gradually gained credence.9\nAmerican historian Deborah Lipstadt has also pointed out this method of establishing a fraudulent proposition as a historical truth. She says about the historical writer and Holocaust-denier David Irving: \u201cIrving realized that a pre-condition for Nazism\u2019s resurrection was to strip and wash it of its worst elements. The first important tool to accomplish this was the creation of immoral equivalencies, essentially a balance of bad behavior.\u201d10\nManifestation and Motivation\nHolocaust inversion manifests itself in many ways. It is expressed in speech, writing, and visual media, also including cartoons, graffiti, and placards. It employs sinister characterizations of Israel and Israelis, Nazi symbols, and sometimes takes the form of Nazi genocidal terminology to describe Israel\u2019s actions.\nThe perpetrators of the most severe Holocaust distortions have manifold motivations. The most extreme aim at the destruction of Israel. This was expressed by Holocaust-denying Iranian foreign minister Manouchehr Mottaki at the International Conference on Review of the Holocaust Global Vision held in Tehran in December 2006. At this assembly of Holocaust deniers and minimizers, Mottaki stated: \u201cif the official version of the Holocaust is thrown into doubt, then the identity and nature of Israel will be thrown into doubt.\u201d11\nMore specifically, the most extreme Holocaust inverters seek to lay the infrastructure for Israel\u2019s moral delegitimization by first demonizing it.\nMany Western Holocaust inverters also aim to bolster the Arab and Palestinian cause by demonizing Israel.\nOther Westerners seem to act out of anti-Semitic motivations. They show little or no interest in the frequent murdering of Palestinians by other Palestinians nor in the plight of Palestinians killed and persecuted elsewhere-for instance, in Iraq. This also pertains, of course, to the murdering of Israelis by Palestinians.\nYet others know little about the Holocaust, the Nazis, and contemporary Israel. They are influenced by members of the media and other societal elites who are Holocaust inverters.\nAbsolving one\u2019s ancestors of guilt is another motif of many Holocaust inverters. The Holocaust was not exclusively the work of Germany-which incorporated Austria-as well as several nations allied with it. Large numbers of Europeans collaborated with the German occupiers. The most effective way to neutralize this is to shift the moral responsibility to Israel by claiming that what was done by the perpetrators is widespread and now practiced primarily by Israelis and Jews.\nThis malicious identification of Israelis as Nazis is intended to free Europeans of their remorse and shame for their centuries-long history of lethal anti-Semitism. Above all, it liberates Europeans from any residual guilt they might have experienced in the wake of the Shoah. If the Israelis-who are, after all, mostly Jews-can be depicted as Nazis, then not having helped them during World War II might not have been misbehavior.\nIsraeli Holocaust-psychologist Nathan Durst related European expressions with anti-Semitic undertones to guilt toward the Holocaust. \u201cIf the guilty person is bad, the Jewish victim becomes good. The moment it can be shown the latter is bad too, the \u2018other\u2019-that is, the European-is relieved of his guilt feelings. To claim that Israelis behave like Nazis reduces the sin of the grandparents. Then the children of the victims can no longer be the accusers. This equalizes everybody.\u201d12\nJeffrey Gedmin, the new American president of Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty, observes: \u201cIt is very helpful for a certain ideology in European political culture to see the Palestinians as helpless underdogs being repressed by the Israelis. This thesis enables many Europeans to relativize, or even balance, Europe\u2019s guilt.\u201d\nThis reflects further European hypocrisy\u2026since there is no passion in either Germany or Europe for independent Kurdish or Basque states. There is no concern for Tibetan underdogs. One can only conclude that the reasons Europeans consider the Palestinian cause for independence central are their cultural bias, burdens of the past and anti-Semitic feelings. It would be much more logical to see the Israelis as underdogs, a small democracy in a large, hostile Arab environment.13\nVisual Forms of Israel Inversion\nAn effective way to grasp the main modes of Holocaust inversion is by analyzing placards and cartoons. These rely on familiar and immediately perceived core stereotypes of hatred, of which the number is limited. This iconography must appeal to ideas with which the public at large is familiar. This particularly pertains to Arab societies where so many people are illiterate.\nIn many anti-Israeli demonstrations, banners are carried that show the Star of David as equivalent to the swastika. The phenomenon is international. At such a demonstration in the Place de la R\u00e9publique in Paris on 7 October 2000, a placard was inscribed \u201cStop the Jewish Hitlerian terrorism!\u201d Below the words a Star of David was drawn as equaling a swastika.14\nThat same year a placard in French at a pro-Palestinian demonstration in Brussels read: \u201cThe years change, the executioners change.\u201d15 Under it was a Star of David, an equal sign, and the SS symbol. At the September 2001 UN World Conference against Racism in Durban (hereinafter Durban conference), Arab-looking women carried a banner saying \u201c1940s Hitler 2000s Sharon.\u201d16\nAnother example among many occurred at a 2002 demonstration in Washington where a young Arab-looking woman held a placard designed as the Israeli flag, reading \u201cHitler & Sharon are the same.\u201d A swastika appeared on the flag instead of the Star of David.17\nAlso in cartoons this equation is a frequently recurring theme. At the Hamashahri Holocaust-cartoon exhibition in Tehran, a drawing by the Algerian Choukri Bellahadi showed an Israeli flag turning into one with a swastika.\nIsraeli Leaders as Resembling Hitler\nA regularly recurring motif is that Israeli leaders are like Hitler or Nazis. Comparisons between Israelis and Nazis, and of swastikas and the Star of David, are especially commonplace in the Arab world. In his standard work on Arab anti-Semitic cartoons, the Belgian political scientist J\u00f6el Kotek devotes a section to Holocaust inversion. In 1996, the major Egyptian daily Al Goumhouriya published a cartoon showing Hitler saying to Shimon Peres: \u201cI made a mistake by not apprising the importance of American support.\u201d18\nA cartoon in the Egyptian daily Al Akhbar in 2000 shows Israel\u2019s then prime minister Ehud Barak dressed as a Nazi with a Hitler mustache.19\nAriel Sharon was perhaps the Israeli prime minister most often depicted as a Nazi. The well-known Lebanese cartoonist Jabra Stavro, in Lebanon\u2019s Daily Star in 2002, transformed in four pictures Sharon with his white hair into Hitler with a mustache and black hair. A Star of David on Sharon\u2019s collar is also transformed into a swastika.20 The Tehran exhibition included a caricature by Bahraini Mohammed Amano showing Sharon in Nazi uniform wearing a skullcap.\nThese phenomena are far from limited to the Arab world. In Norway anti-Semitic cartoons appear regularly in several of the major papers. In July 2006 the Dagbladet daily, Norway\u2019s third largest paper, carried a drawing by Finn Graff of Prime Minister Ehud Olmert as a Nazi.21\nIsrael Worse than the Nazis\nSometimes cartoons even present Israelis as worse than Nazis. Kotek says: \u201cA 1993 cartoon in the Syrian daily Teshreen shows one soldier with a Star of David on his helmet and another with a swastika on his helmet. The caption reads: \u2018The Security Council has studied the case of genocide of the Palestinians.\u2019 The long list is of Israeli crimes; the small list of Nazi crimes.\u201d22\nThe claim that Israel is worse than the Nazis also appeared in the Hamashahri competition. The Moroccan cartoonist Naji Benaji was awarded a special prize for his drawing of two bottles. One, on which \u201cHolocaust\u201d is written, contains a few skulls; the second carries the Palestinian flag and is filled with skulls.\nThe number of cartoon variations on the core motif of Holocaust inversion is virtually unlimited. Kotek cites the Brazilian Carlos Latuff as a well-known anti-Semitic caricaturist who has been producing such works for many years.23 He won a shared second prize in the Tehran competition for a cartoon showing an Arab as a concentration-camp inmate.\nA 2002 cartoon in the Greek daily Ethnos, close to the then-ruling Pasok socialist party, has become a classic of twenty-first-century anti-Semitism. It shows two Jewish soldiers dressed as Nazis, with Stars of David on their helmets, thrusting knives into Arabs. Its caption reads: \u201cDo not feel yourself guilty, my brother. We were not in Auschwitz and Dachau to suffer, but to learn.\u201d24\nThese were preceded in 1988 by the Kuwaiti paper Al Rai-Al Aam, which published a caricature of a soldier with a gun, kippa, and long nose shoving a child into a furnace. The image alluded to both the Shoah and the ancient anti-Semitic blood libel that Jews use children to bake matzo.25\nToynbee, European Communists\nThe same anti-Semitic motifs also occur in written and verbal form. They go back to the immediate postwar period, though today they are much more frequent. The well-known British historian Arnold Toynbee, a notorious anti-Semite, claimed in his major work A Study of History that the Israeli treatment of Arabs during the 1948 war was morally comparable to the Nazi treatment of the Jews. He repeated this accusation in a 1961 debate with the then Israeli ambassador to Canada, Jacob Herzog, who asserted that the Nazi murder of six million Jews was incomparable to the unfortunate uprooting of Arab communities.26\nSoviet propaganda was one of the important roots of Holocaust inversion. Israeli anti-Semitism scholar Simcha Epstein relates how in 1953, French communist intellectuals organized a solidarity rally in Paris to support the official Soviet claim that mainly Jewish doctors had assassinated communist leaders. He notes that at the meeting many speakers, including Jews, \u201cexplained that it was normal to suspect doctors of poisoning people: one only had to look at Mengele\u2019s role in Auschwitz. If he was capable of what he did, why should other physicians not use poison?\u201d27\nAlthough this example concerned Jews, presenting Israelis as Nazis was also widespread in the communist world. In 1968, Simon Wiesenthal stated that East Germany\u2019s news service was far more anti-Israeli than that of other communist countries. This was because of the former Nazi propagandists it employed. \u201cOn 14 July 1967, for example, a cartoon appeared in the Berliner Zeitung, depicting a flying Moshe Dayan, with his hands stretched out toward Gaza and Jerusalem. Next to him stood Adolf Hitler in an advanced state of decomposition. He encouraged Dayan with the words: \u2018Carry on, colleague Dayan!'\u201d28\nIn a famous 1968 open letter, British philosopher Bertrand Russell accosted Polish prime minister Wladyslaw Gomulka: \u201cBy some twisted logic, all Jews are now Zionists, Zionists are fascists, fascists are Nazis and Jews therefore are to be identified with the very criminals who only recently sought to eliminate Polish Jewry.\u201d29\nThe West European Mainstream\nThe Holocaust-inversion theme has already appeared in the West European mainstream for several decades. Leading European politicians such as the late Swedish socialist prime minister Olof Palme and the late Greek socialist prime minister Andreas Papandreou have accused Israel of using Nazi methods.30 31\nIn recent years such charges have become more widespread. American congressman and Holocaust-survivor Tom Lantos described the distortions of the Holocaust at the Durban conference. He also notes that at a preparatory emergency conference in Geneva in June 2001, the UN high commissioner for human rights and former Irish president, Mary Robinson, \u201crefused to reject the twisted notion that the wrong done to the Jews in the Holocaust was equivalent to the pain suffered by the Palestinian in the Middle East. Instead she discussed \u2018the historical wounds of anti-Semitism and of the Holocaust on the one hand, and the accumulated wounds of displacement and military occupation on the other.'\u201d32\nSenior members of the Greek Socialist Party often use Holocaust rhetoric to describe Israeli military actions.33 In March 2002, parliamentary speaker Apostolos Kaklamanis referred to the \u201cgenocide\u201d of the Palestinians. He was backed by the government spokesman, Christos Protopapas, who said that Kaklamanis spoke \u201cwith sensitivity and responsibility, expressing the sentiments of the Parliament and Greek people.\u201d34\nOne only has to read the recent judgment of the International Court of Justice on the Srebrenica mass murder to understand what genocide is and how perverse the genocide accusations against Israel are.35\nIn April 2002, Franco Cavalli spoke at a demonstration of the Swiss-Palestinian Society in Bern. He was then parliamentary leader of the Social Democratic Party (SP), which is part of the Swiss governing coalition. He claimed that Israel \u201cvery purposefully massacres an entire people\u201d and undertakes \u201cthe systematic extermination of the Palestinians.\u201d At the rally Israeli flags were torched.36 That same year British poet and Oxford academic Tom Paulin told an Egyptian newspaper that Jewish settlers in the West Bank are \u201cNazis and racists [who] should be shot dead.\u201d37\nUsing Nazi genocidal language for Israel\u2019s actions is another tool of Holocaust inversion. The most effective way to sanitize Germany\u2019s immense crimes is to accuse Israel of acting similarly. In 2002 Norbert Bl\u00fcm, a former German Christian Democrat minister of labor, charged that the Jewish state was conducting a \u201cVernichtungskrieg\u201d against the Palestinians-the Nazi expression for a war of extermination.38 The Christian Democrat Party expelled parliamentarian Martin Hohmann many months after he had called Israelis in 2003 a nation of criminals, using the expression \u201cTaetervolk,\u201d commonly reserved for Nazi Germany.39\nHolocaust inversion has made major inroads in the Western world, as shown, for example, by German survey data. The major GMF poll in 2004 interviewed 2,656 representatively selected German-speaking people in the country.40 Sixty-eight percent agreed that: \u201cIsrael undertakes a war of destruction against the Palestinians.\u201d Fifty-one percent agreed that: \u201cWhat the state of Israel does today to the Palestinians, is in principle not different from what the Nazis did in the Third Reich to the Jews.\u201d41\nOn 26 January 2007-one day before the United Nations\u2019 International Day of Commemoration for the victims of the Holocaust-the 192-member UN General Assembly approved a resolution by consensus, introduced by the United States. It condemned \u201cwithout any reservation any denial of the Holocaust.\u201d It did not mention any country. Iran reacted by stating that the Holocaust should be examined to determine its scope. Mario Palavicini, the delegate from Venezuela, supported the resolution but also inverted the Holocaust by saying that Israel\u2019s \u201cexcesses under the pretext of legitimate defense has led to a new holocaust against the Palestinian people.\u201d42\nIn Spain in 2006, there was even an attempt to invert the day of official Holocaust remembrance. Susana Leon Gordillo, a member of Prime Minister Zapatero\u2019s ruling Socialist Party (PSOE) and mayor of the Madrid suburb Ciempozuelos, decided to commemorate in his town the \u201cgenocide of the Palestinian people.\u201d At the request of the Spanish Foreign Ministry, \u201cPalestine Genocide Day\u201d was canceled. References to the affair were taken from the Ciempozuelos municipality website.43\nThe Anti-Defamation League condemned the mayor\u2019s Holocaust-inversion attempt and addressed him a letter saying:\nYour attempt to equate the industrialized mass murder of six million Jewish women, men and children, as well as millions of others, with the situation of the Palestinian people is shameful. It reflects an extremely disturbing tendency, which is particularly visible in Europe to dishonor the memory of the victims of the Holocaust and de-legitimize the State of Israel by seeking to eradicate the clear moral difference between the Holocaust and the loss of Palestinian lives as a result of the Arab-Israeli conflict.44\nThere are some Jewish Holocaust inverters as well. One is Sara Roy, a senior research scholar at the Harvard University Center for Middle Eastern Studies. A child of Holocaust survivors herself, she used a Holocaust Memorial Lecture to suggest that Israelis are Nazis, saying: \u201cWithin the Jewish community it has always been considered a form of heresy to compare Israeli actions or policies with those of the Nazis and certainly one must be very careful in doing so.\u201d She then insinuated that they are comparable, quoting as proof-a figment of Palestinian propaganda-that \u201cIsraeli soldiers openly admit to shooting Palestinian children for sport.\u201d45\nFishman, in an essay on the Cold War origins of contemporary anti-Semitic terminology, lists a variety of Israelis, academics and others, who have made Holocaust-inverting remarks.46\nInversion of Symbols\nMany Holocaust symbols have also been inverted. In Amsterdam in February 2007, graffiti appeared showing Anne Frank with a keffiya. One regularly finds cartoons or pictures comparing Arab cities and towns to the Warsaw Ghetto,47 and attempts to compare the killing of the Palestinian child Mohammed al-Dura-who probably died from a Palestinian bullet-to the iconic Jewish child raising his hands in the Warsaw Ghetto.48\nAttorney Khaled Mahamid, an Israeli Arab from Nazareth, has founded a Holocaust museum. The Anti-Defamation League, while praising the existence of an Arab museum in Israel commemorating the Holocaust, expressed its deep concern that its approach undid much of the benefit it could have achieved.\nThe ADL statement continued that the museum was based\non the false premise that the Palestinian people are paying the price for European guilt over the Holocaust by having what they believe is an illegitimate Jewish state in the heart of the Arab world. By placing the PLO flag at the museum as well as posters of Palestinian refugees and photos of Palestinian victims of violence juxtaposed next to Jewish victims of the Holocaust, Mr. Mahamid also seeks to create a totally inappropriate connection between the plight of the Palestinians and the Jewish Holocaust victims.49\nHolocaust denial and Holocaust inversion are frequently found together in the Arab world. This is seemingly strange yet reflects the perpetrators\u2019 aim of maximum demonization of Israel. Nordbruch points out that \u201carticles denouncing Zionism as Nazism often include Holocaust denial as well.\u201d50\nThe Hamas Charter is one of a large number of Arab sources that commit Holocaust inversion. Its article 20 states: \u201cThe Nazism of the Jews does not skip women and children, it scares everyone. They make war against people\u2019s livelihood, plunder their moneys and threaten their honor. In their horrible actions they mistreat people like the more horrendous war criminals.\u201d\nThe charter is repetitive; its article 31 says: \u201cThe Nazi Zionist practices against our people will not last the lifetime of their invasion, for \u2018states built upon oppression last only one hour, states based upon justice will last until the hour of Resurrection.'\u201d51\nComparing Palestinians to Shoah Victims\nAnother manifestation of Holocaust inversion is comparing the situation of the Palestinians to that of the Jews in concentration camps. It is found in many cartoons as well as elsewhere.\nPortuguese Nobel Prize-winning author Jos\u00e9 Saramago, a communist, compared the blockaded Palestinian city of Ramallah to Auschwitz.52 While visiting Brazil he declared that the Jewish people no longer deserve sympathy for the suffering they endured during the Holocaust.53\nWistrich notes that the Anglican Church Times chose to mark Britain\u2019s Holocaust Memorial Day with a particularly malevolent article by the Rev. Richard Spencer, who described events in Ramallah as a \u201csuffering and deprivation that I could only imagine in Auschwitz.\u201d54\nDurst observes: \u201cWhen one calls everything Auschwitz, you deny the Holocaust. As everything becomes terrible, there is no absolute evil anymore. This is a great relief for the heirs of guilt.\u201d55\nThe Muslim World and the Nazis\nEven superficial analysis shows that the main ideological similarity to Nazi thought and behavior is nowadays found in parts of the Muslim world. The influence of neo-Nazi movements in the Western world is small compared to the prominence of Nazi-like thought among Muslim societies.\nThe dominant example is Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. His genocidal threats and incitement against Israel have deep roots both in fundamentalist Iran and among radical Muslim figures in other countries.56 He also has called the Holocaust a myth.57\nThe Hamas Charter is another document calling for genocide. Its Article 7 lays the groundwork for its ideology of murder: \u201cthe Hamas has been looking forward to implement Allah\u2019s promise whatever time it might take. The prophet, prayer and peace be upon him, said: The time will not come until Muslims will fight the Jews (and kill them); until the Jews hide behind rocks and trees, which will cry: O Muslim! There is a Jew hiding behind me, come on and kill him!\u201d\nPalestinian Extremists and \u201cModerates\u201d\nThe Palestinian incitement calling for genocide of the Jews goes back well before World War II. The abovementioned Haj Amin el-Husseini, the prewar mufti of Jerusalem, was the leader of the Palestinian Arab extremists before the War of Independence and supported Hitler\u2019s actions against the Jews. In the late 1930s, he was financially and militarily assisted by Hitler\u2019s Germany. As Matthias K\u00fcntzel put it: \u201ca biography of the Mufti published in 1943 clarified the closeness in world view between National Socialism and Islamism from a German perspective.\u201d58\nFor a long time the leader of the Palestinian Arab \u201cmoderates\u201d was Ragheb bey el-Nashashibi, the mayor of Jerusalem, who also came out in favor of the mass murder of Jews. After the 1929 riots in Mandatory Palestine, the non-Jewish French writer Albert Londres asked him why the Arabs had murdered the old, pious Jews in Hebron and Safed, with whom they had no quarrel.\nThe mayor answered: \u201cIn a way you behave like in a war. You don\u2019t kill what you want. You kill what you find. Next time they will all be killed, young and old.\u201d Later on, Londres spoke again to the mayor and tested him ironically by saying: \u201cYou cannot kill all the Jews. There are 150,000 of them.\u201d Nashashibi answered \u201cin a soft voice, \u2018Oh no, it\u2019ll take two days.'\u201d59\nThis reflected a much broader Arab mindset. It was most succinctly put by Azzam Pasha, secretary of the Arab League, who announced during the 1948 Arab-Israeli war: \u201cThis will be a war of extermination and a momentous massacre which will be spoken of like the Mongolian massacres and the Crusades.\u201d60\nArab Countries a Haven for Nazis\nMany Nazis who escaped from defeated Germany found a new home in Arab countries. Alois Brunner, an Austrian Nazi war criminal and assistant to Adolf Eichmann, fled to Syria in the mid-1950s and acted there as a government adviser.\nEgypt in particular became a haven for Nazis. There, they continued their anti-Semitic activities. Among them was Johannes von Leers, a Goebbels collaborator, who was brought to Egypt by Haj Amin el-Husseini after World War II. He converted to Islam, changed his name to Omar Amin, and became a political adviser to the Information Bureau of the Egyptian government.61\nWhen in 1953 there was a rumor that Hitler was still alive, Anwar as-Sadat, later president of Egypt, wrote in deference to him: \u201cI congratulate you wholeheartedly\u2026. You can be proud of it that you will be the immortal F\u00fchrer of Germany. We will not be surprised when we see you rise again or when after you a new Hitler emerges.\u201d62\nFishman shows the important role of Nazi propagandists in transplanting their propaganda themes into the Middle East and particularly into the media war against Israel. He concludes: \u201cIf today\u2019s Arab anti-Israeli and anti-Jewish propaganda strongly resembles that of the Third Reich, there is a good reason.\u201d63\nHolocaust inversion attempts to delegitimize Israel by associating it with the epitome of evil and criminal behavior, Nazi Germany. It attacks and humiliates the Jewish people by equating them with the perpetrators of the brutal genocide that nearly succeeded in exterminating the Jews completely. It also serves to sanitize Germany\u2019s immense crimes and those of other European countries by accusing Israel of acting similarly.\nYet the world\u2019s major contemporary propagators of Nazi ideology live outside Europe. The most powerful ones can be found mainly in the Muslim world. Palestinian, often genocidal, anti-Semitic incitement is part of a broader picture of a widespread, partly theocratic, Muslim totalitarianism.\nFighting Holocaust inversion and other manipulations of the Holocaust requires first exposing the perpetrators. Thereafter the accusers must be turned into the accused.\nDr. Manfred Gerstenfeld is chairman of the Board of Fellows of the Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs. He is an international business strategist who has been a consultant to governments, international agencies, and boards of some of the world\u2019s largest corporations.

For almost 10 years we have focused on helping local companies use the internet to improve visibility in their local market. We as a company create websites, manage content on websites and various social media platforms, and employ email marketing and internet marketing campaigns.\nMany times web development companies will sell web design services and internet marketing products to a local business, without considering \u201cWho, What, When, Where, Why, and What is Next?\u201d Other times graphic designers are hired create a beautiful website design but because the site is not built using the latest technology and/or SEO tactics, Google has a tough time discovering the information on the site and the company never makes it to the top of appropriate searches.\nWe focus offering personalized services and take a more of an inclusive approach to our web development and marketing planning. We take the time to sit down face to face with business owners and support staff to not only discuss what has brought their company to the point they are at, but also where they want to go. Together as a team we will develop a plan of how to get there.\nJC Sweet & Co. offers website management services on a monthly or as needed basis, and determine a plan based on the company\u2019s comfort level with technology and available time and desire to learn. We will set up social media accounts and train users to implement a plan that will be comfortable to use. We are always up front with cost and timeline associated with our process.\nJenny Crawford, owner of JC Sweet & Co., works face to face with web development clients to increase their visibility in the local market. In addition, Jenny is an award winning ambassador and a volunteer with the Chamber of Southern Saratoga County since 2007 helping to manage the social media for both the Chamber of Southern Saratoga County and the regional Think.Buy.Local initiative. In addition, Jenny finds herself lecturing at local seminars including the Chamber of Southern Saratoga County\u2019s Start Up Smart Entrepreneurial Program as well as the SBDC Business Education Seminar series\u2019 located at the University at Albany with her most recent addition as an educator in the SEEDS program.\nJenny Crawford is a connector by nature and prides herself in being a trusted resource for local businesses. She thrives in her role as business owner and Chair Woman for the SSCCC Ambassador as she helps to weave new businesses into the culture of the community. Jenny\u2019s success is due to her belief that the best way to build local business is to cultivate quality relationships and she is eager to educate local business owners on just how to do this through leveraging both face to face relationships and technology.\n* March 2014 SSCCC Entrepreneurial Success Award\n* May 2015 CRBRA Best in Building Award \u2013 Best Website Design\n* 2016 CRBRA Best in Building Award \u2013 Best Use of Social Media\nMeet the \u201c& Co.\u201d\nWhile completing her degree, Carlie worked as a part-time Assistant at JC Sweet & Co.

        "raw_content": "People / Social\nI\u2019ve been quiet on my blog, I know. Here\u2019s the truth \u2013 when I am significantly challenged with something I immediately go inward. I huddle inside my home, sit on my meditation chair, and shut the world out. You see, the end of November/early December was tough for me. While walking in the woods on a cool fall morning, the left side of my body went numb. I let it go for a few days, but when it moved to my face, I panicked. Several terrifying MRI\u2019s later, I discovered I had a pinched nerve. Relief slowly soaked in, but not for long. Days later, my mom revealed that she had an abnormal mammogram. Worry ensued until I couldn\u2019t bear it any longer. I finally reached out to my friends, asked for support and prayers, and trusted that I could handle the outcome. The moment I did that, I felt a tremendous weight lift off of me.\nThis experience underscored the power of connection and community. On our own, challenges and problems can feel insurmountable. However, the moment we share the weight of our burdens with others, we allow space for healing. That\u2019s what happened to me. As I sat on my friend\u2019s couch and wept, I began to feel lighter. An hour later, I actually felt good. What a stark difference than the day before! Driving home from my friend\u2019s place, another friend called to say she wanted to meet up the next day. When we met the following day, I revealed to her how I had been feeling. To my surprise, she was going through something similar and had also shut out the world! After we spent time supporting each other, she felt better too!\nWe are not meant to \u201cdo life\u201d alone. Mark Nepo, New York Times bestselling author said, \u201cThe aspen grove is a great metaphor for the life of community.\nIn our time of need, we can find tremendous strength and solace in community. Though each aspen appears as an individual tree above ground, they all share the same root system. In this way, aspens are one of the largest living organisms on Earth. And what happens to one tree happens to all the trees, for underground they are all connected. Their health depends on each other. Thus, on many levels, community is crucial for health and societal well-being.\u201d Similar to the aspen tree, we were created to be in communion with one another. In our time of need, we can find tremendous strength and solace in community. Therefore, we must resist the urge to create invisible (and visible) walls of separation if we are to live fully. I believe we\u2019d live much richer lives if we allowed ourselves to deepen our connections with others not just in the bad times, but also in the good times. Exchange a smile with a stranger, speak to the store clerk, and strike up a conversation while standing in line. These simple acts will have a profound effect on your mental health and the well-being of everyone you encounter.\nAnd my mom? Well, she\u2019s fine (thank God). Was all of that worry for nothing? Some might say so, but I believe all of this happened so that I could learn the value of community and connecting with others.\nCraving community? Click here to get connected.\nTagged: connection and communityMark Nepothe importance of friendsvalue of community",

Practically, no other country has it as bad about property as we do.\nThe above shows the proportion of properties owner-occupied (blue) and rented (yellow/green), across the bulk of the EU.\nThe first thing you notice is that ALL the countries shown have high owner occupations.\nThen if you look for the UK you might be surprised to find that only FOUR EU countries (5 including Germany, not shown) have owner occupations lower than us. And TWENTY THREE countries have owner occupations higher than that of the UK.\nThe UK is uniquely obsessed with property ownership that the media push down our throats month in month out? It's quite rubbish you know. Every country, where there has been a property boom, will have high owner occupations and a mania. It stands to reason. People, everywhere, jump on bandwagons.\nIncidentally, after nearly 3 years of price stagnation in the UK, from late 2010 to early 2013 (during which we were decidedly bearish on property prices and the market), on the day after last year's Budget we said we expected prices to rise at least until the next General Election in May 2015 (see last year's Budget commentary).

In the early 80s, I saw Barbara Thompson\u2019s Paraphernalia on several occasions and that only confirmed what an inspiring musician Jon was. Many years later, I found myself conducting the 1st of several interviews with Jon and, over the course of those interviews, was fortunate to get to know Jon a little better. What I discovered was an equally inspiring man. He was warm, intelligent, inquisitive, enthusiastic, funny, observant, energetic, humble and a man of complete integrity. I feel utterly privileged to have been able to get to know him and spend several hours in conversation with him. I only wish I could have known him longer. RIP Jon. Thank you for all of the great music and conversations.\nRoy Burton from England, UK wrote on July 10, 2018 at 1:15 pm:\nI first became aware of Jon from the John Mayall era and followed him ever since, seen the band many...

The first is a ceramic mug that also comes with a travel lid (multi-purpose!) and says \u201cYou had me at coffee.\u201d It\u2019s really tall, which I love in a mug. The second is wide (perfect size to wrap my cold hands around and warm them up) and has a cable-knit pattern\u2026a sweater mug! It accompanied my other present, Jenny Han\u2019s P.S. I STILL LOVE YOU, and I feel like Lara Jean would approve of a sweater mug!\n*Sidenote: I put a LOT of thought into my coffee mug preferences. Not sure this is normal!\nDREAMS OF GODS AND MONSTERS by Laini Taylor. Finally finishing this series! I read DAYS OF BLOOD AND STARLIGHT over the summer, and the plot twists (I never saw them coming!) sold me on the story. Can\u2019t wait to see what\u2019s in store for the finale!\nTonight is episode two of Shadowhunters on ABC Family/Freeform. I\u2019ve actually already seen it because they put it online last week, but I\u2019ll be watching it again. The City of Bones movie let me down SO much, so it\u2019s not hard for the TV show to be better. The Mortal Instruments was my introduction to the YA world (apart from Sarah Dessen), so I\u2019m pretty invested in it.\nMy opinions on the show so far: great casting (Kat McNamara as Clary, in particular), okay writing (the way they worked in the backstory was clunky but got the job done), and I\u2019m on board with most of their changes so far (ie. making Luke a detective investigating the same murders as the Shadowhunters). Here\u2019s hoping the episodes get better and better!\nI\u2019ve been listening to/salivating over Sam Hunt\u2019s acoustic version of \u201cBreak Up in a Small Town.\u201d His voice is VELVET SILK HOT CHOCOLATE COZY SWEATSHIRTS. I just want to cuddle up with it. <3\nRebalancing my writing time. I did SO well from June-October, but I took a break the past few months from writing every single day. Saturday has become my main writing day because my mind is fresh (not exhausted from work) but I can\u2019t only write one day a week. I\u2019d get nothing done! Back to evening/lunch break writing I go\u2026\nThe 5th Wave movie hits theaters this Friday! I'm a big fan of the book AND Chloe Grace Moretz (I think she played the perfect Mia in the If I Stay movie), so you'll definitely find me in the theater...possibly with my dad! I'm turning him into a book-to-movie adaptation lover! First Hunger Games, then The Martian, and now The 5th Wave!\nI wish more of my gym\u2019s yoga classes fit into my schedule. I go to two a week and am itching for a third (I think I\u2019m starting to plateau, yoga-wise). I\u2019d really rather not stay after work for a class\u2014my evenings are short and busy enough as it is\u2014but maybe once in a while I\u2019ll give it a try.\nStill flying high from a great 25th birthday on the 8th. I spent my birthday with my family, then went to a college friend\u2019s for the weekend\u2026and she surprised me with our other best friend from school! We stayed awake until 6 AM catching up!\nYour turn...what have you been up to lately?\nkatyupperman January 19, 2016 at 5:28 PM\nI just downloaded that Sam Hunt song. I've never heard the acoustic version before -- THANK YOU for putting it on my radar! Hope you had the happiest of birthdays, and yeah, I put a lot of thought into my mug selection, too. :-)\nKaitlin Bartlett January 20, 2016 at 9:34 AM\nI wouldn't have known he'd released the acoustic version if my radio station wasn't obsessed with it. It's fantastic!! :)",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Micro-clustered ionized water\nWater from a Water Ionizer is \u201cmicro-clustered\u201d, meaning it is grouped together in smaller clusters of 5-6 water molecules like clusters found in natural flowing spring water, instead of the 10-13 found in bottled or tap water. This makes it \u201cmicro-clustered\u201d so it will be more quickly and easily absorbed and will hydrate cells and tissues more effectively. The hexagonal molecular structure resulting from electrolysis is what makes ionized water \u201cwetter\u201d than tap or bottles water. It is up to 6 times more hydrating than typical tap water. Therefore it permeates cellular membranes quickly to provide a natural energy lift.\nPosted by kangengroup on Nov 23, 2013 in Micro-cluster | 0 comments\nThe last of the three main changes that occur to water during ionization is in molecular structure. This refers to the way the molecules are organized. The molecular structure has a powerful effect on water s ability to hydrate your cells and to carry energy throughout your body. Water is what chemists call a polar molecule. It has a positively-charged side and a negatively-charged side because of the way the electrons are arranged around each atom. This means that when water is placed in an electric field, the molecules must organize themselves in a very specific manner to stay balanced within the electric field. Water molecules assume a crystal-like, hexagonal geometry that can literally change the properties of the water.11 Although the organization (structure) of the molecules begins to dissipate when the water is removed from the electric field, a certain amount of structure lingers. Crystalline structure enhances the water s ability to hydrate cells, to transport nutrients, to remove waste, to support metabolic processes and to improve cellular communication. In 1986, a new theory referred to as the molecular water environment theory was proposed at a symposium on cancer. The theory stated that replenishing the crystalline (hexagonally structured) water in the human body could increase vitality, slow the aging process, and prevent disease. The theory was based on research that revealed the following: 1. a greater degree of structure in the water of an infant s body than in the water of an adult s body 2. a greater degree of structure in the water surrounding healthy DNA than cancerous DNA 3. a greater degree of structure in the water surrounding the proteins of healthy tissue than in the water surrounding the proteins of cancerous tissue. 4. the ability of structured water to improve bowel transit time and constipation in a clinical trial. 5. the ability of structured water to slow the growth of cultured cancer cells. One of the first questions people ask about the molecular structure of water is: How can a substance that is liquid have structure ? The best way to explain this is by introducing the term, coherence. In quantum physics, the term coherence is defined as a fixed phase relationship between waves or particles. For water to be coherent, molecules must move together, turning and spinning as if they were all connected like a sheet that blows in the wind. In a coherent system, things tend to stay organized for longer periods of time. In fact, quantum physicists are beginning to consider new ways of looking at life itself in terms of coherence and organization. According to quantum theory, the difference between life and death is not so much in chemistry as it is in organization and structure.15 This has huge implications when you consider that the structure of the water in your body can be correlated with sickness and aging. Liquid crystals are special phases of matter with orientational order. Unlike solid crystals, they are flexible and responsive.16 Computer display screens are liquid crystals. Many components of the human body are now considered to be liquid crystals, including collagen and cell membranes. In many ways, water and crystalline quartz are similar. Quartz crystals are used in the computer industry because they vibrate under pressure at a very precise frequency. This property allows them to carry signals with speed and precision like no other material. The molecular geometry of structured water is very similar to the molecular geometry of crystalline quartz based on the...\nRelated posts: Dr. Robert Young, Cellular Nutritionist , Kidney Disease , Kidney stones, Enagic Award & Certification, WHAT IS IONIZED WATER?",

By the time the charter was approved five months later, the \"Magic City of the Plains\" had swelled to a population of 4,000, with a school and hundreds of thriving businesses.\nAlthough the Territorial Legislature granted the city power to impose and enforce laws, the bustling outpost was soon overrun by gamblers and gunslingers and earned the nickname \"Hell On Wheels\". As a result, city leaders relied on vigilante posses instead of the court to drive unsavory settlers out of town.\nThe following year, Cheyenne became the capital for the newly formed Wyoming Territory, which was created with land allocated from the Dakota, Idaho and Utah Territories. It continued as the territorial capital until Wyoming was granted statehood in 1890.\nFiled Under: Cheyenne History, cheyenne wyoming, Dakota Territorial Legislature, Magic City of the Plain, Wyoming History\nCategories: History, rick roddam",

It was eclipsed by Hu\u1ebf, the imperial capital of Vietnam during the Nguyen dynasty (1802-1945), but Hanoi served as the capital of French Indochina from 1902 to 1954.

If the employer remains open but the employee does not report to work, the employer is not required to pay the employee for that day. However, if the employee performs any work that day, s/he must be paid. Therefore, if the employee reports to work but the employer closes early, the employee chooses to leave early, or the employee stays home but takes a call or checks his/her e-mail, the employee must be paid.\nEmployers who have a well drafted vacation or paid time off (\u201cPTO\u201d) policy, can require exempt employees who take a partial or full day off to use available vacation or PTO to be paid for that day. However, if the employee has no available vacation or PTO, the employer must still pay exempt employees as described above.\nThe situation is different for non-exempt employees. An employer who closes for an emergency is not required to pay non-exempt employees for that day. Employers must only pay a non-exempt employee who reports to work and is sent home the amount required by state law. However, most states only require payment at the state minimum wage. In Massachusetts, employees who report to work but are sent home must be paid at least the state minimum wage for three hours, in New Hampshire for two hours, and in New York for four hours. Other states may have different or no requirements.\nIf possible, employers should decide if they will be open. If not, they should inform employees as soon as possible that they will be closed to avoid having to pay employees who report to work. For the future, employers should develop an Emergency Closure Policy and address it in their Employee Handbook.\nPlease do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions about your obligations or need to update your Employee Handbook.",

MICHAEL ESPERA Y CUYACOT, Accused-Appellant.\nPEOPLE OF THE PHILIPPINES, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. MICHAEL ESPERA Y CUYACOT, Accused-Appellant.\nThis an appeal from the Decision1 dated July 28, 2011 of the Court of Appeals in CA-G.R. CEB-CR-H.C. No. 000923 denying the appeal of the appellant Michael Espera and affirming (with modification of the damages awarded) the Omnibus Decision2 dated September 21, 2007 of the Regional Trial Court (RTC) of Talibon, Bohol, Branch 52 in Criminal Case Nos. 99-511 and 99-512, which found the appellant guilty of the crimes of rape by sexual assault and rape by sexual intercourse.\nThe following Informations were filed against the appellant:chanRoblesvirtualLawlibrary\nA. In Criminal Case No. 99-511\nThat on or about the 26th day of January, 1999 in the municipality of Ubay, province of Bohol, Philippines and within the jurisdiction of this Honorable Court, the above-named accused with criminal intent and with the use of force, threat and intimidation by using a deadly weapon \u2013 a short firearm, did then and there willfully, unlawfully and feloniously insert his penis into the mouth of the victim [Ana3] against her will and without her consent; to the damage and prejudice of the victim.\nActs committed contrary to the provisions of Art. 266-A[,] par. 2, in relation to Article 266-B of R.A. No. 8353.4\nB. In Criminal Case No. 99-512\nThat on or about the 26th day of January, 1999 in the municipality of Ubay, province of Bohol, Philippines and within the jurisdiction of this Honorable Court, the above-named accused with criminal intent and with the use of force, threat and intimidation by using a deadly weapon \u2013 a short firearm, did then and there willfully, unlawfully and feloniously drag and push the victim [Ana] to the ground and with lewd designs, have sexual intercourse with the victim against her will and without her consent; to the damage and prejudice of the victim.\nActs committed contrary to the provisions of Art. 266-A[,] No. 1, in relation to Article 266-B of R.A. No. 8353 and of R.A. No. 7659.5\nThe appellant pleaded not guilty to both charges when arraigned.6 Pre-trial was conducted and, thereafter, trial ensued.\nThe prosecution established that at around 11:30 in the evening of January 26, 1999, Ana and \u201cSusie,\u201d7 Ana\u2019s co-worker at the \u201cGet Well Clinic\u201d8 at Fatima, Ubay, Bohol decided to share a ride as they were both residents of \u201cBarangay Ekis\u201d9 in Ubay, Bohol. They hailed a tricycle at the junction of the provincial road and the barangay road, some 50 meters away from the clinic. Streetlights illuminated the area. There was also light coming from the nearby chapel and the houses in the vicinity. As was her wont, Susie beamed a flashlight on the front part of the tricycle. She recognized the driver, the appellant in this case, as one of her husband\u2019s friends. Ana recognized the driver by face, although she did not know his name. She noticed that he was wearing a red polo shirt and maong pants.10\nUpon reaching Barangay Ekis, Susie was the first to disembark as Ana\u2019s house was some 150 to 250 meters farther down the unpaved sloping road. Ana asked the driver to stop the tricycle when they were near her house but he kept on driving, telling her that the tricycle\u2019s brakes were not working. The tricycle finally stopped at the quarry site. The appellant asked Ana to get off as the tricycle purportedly ran out of gas. She offered to pay her fare but he did not accept it on account of his failure to bring Ana home.11\nAs Ana was tracing her way home under a bright moonlight,12 she heard the rustling of another person\u2019s pants behind her. She realized she was being followed. She turned around. She saw the appellant, naked from the waist up, with his red polo shirt now covering his face. She saw a gun in his hand. She ran away from him and shouted for help. He ran after her and immediately caught her. He covered her mouth and pointed the gun on her head. He threatened to kill her if she shouted.13 She recognized his voice -- it was the voice of the tricycle driver.14 She tried to ward of his hands but she lost her balance in the process and fell to the ground. She tried to kick him but he overpowered her. He punched her in the upper part of her stomach. She felt pain. She pretended to lose consciousness, hoping that he would leave her.15 She was wrong.\nThe appellant dragged Ana by the hair to a more secluded place. After he pushed her to the ground, she tried to stand up but he boxed her several times. She cried and begged him to stop. Her pleas fell on deaf ears. He forcefully undressed her, removing her pants, shirt and bra. He pinned her to the ground with his hands. He then stood and removed his pants and underwear. He rubbed his body against her. He then knelt and placed his groin on her face. He ordered her to suck his manhood. She refused but he punched her again in the upper part of her stomach and forced his organ inside her mouth.16\nAfter inserting his organ in Ana\u2019s mouth, the appellant forcibly opened her legs and inserted his fingers in her vagina. She cried but he continued to ignore her pleas and again threatened to kill her.17 He commanded her to guide his sex organ to hers, she initially refused but was left no choice when he pointed the gun at her head.18 He then forcefully penetrated her, causing her to shout because of extreme pain. This enraged the appellant, prompting him to bite her lips and lower jaw.19\nAfter ravishing Ana, the appellant asked her if she knew him and if she remembered the markings of his tricycle. She denied both, fearing that he might kill her if she would tell him the truth. Finished with his dastardly deed, he repeated his threat to kill her. He ordered her to remove her shirt and to blindfold herself with it. He commanded her to remain seated on the ground until after 15 minutes from the time he had started the tricycle. She did as told. When she sensed that he was already gone, she immediately stood up, wrapped her body with a malong and went home.20\nOn the next day, Ana told her mother about what happened to her.21\nAnd on the day after that, when Susie visited her to ask why she did not report at the clinic, Ana told Susie that she was raped by the driver of the tricycle who brought them to Barangay Ekis two nights ago.22\nThereafter, Ana had herself examined by a doctor. The medical examination revealed that she suffered multiple contusions, lacerations and abrasions on different parts of her body. In particular, she had contusions in the right side of her face, from the jaw to the temple and at the base of the right ear. She had bruise on the right forehead. She also had contusions below her lower left breast and lower chest. She had a laceration running from the jaw to the lower lip and a wound indicating a bite mark in her upper lip. There was marked tenderness in the upper part of her stomach and there were fingernail marks in her right shoulder, left wrist and in her back. Her labia were lacerated, her hymen was ruptured and dead spermatozoa were found in her vagina.23\nThereafter, Ana was assisted by her parents in reporting the matter to the authorities.24 When she saw the appellant at the police station, she recognized him although he cut his hair and shaved his beard. And when she heard his voice, she became more certain that he was her assailant and,25 with that realization, she could only cry and was unable to say anything.26\nSubsequently, the appellant suddenly left Ubay, Bohol without informing anyone where he went. He was finally apprehended in Pampanga in August 2003.27\nThe appellant admitted that he was a tricycle driver. In his defense, he claimed that he lives in Fatima, Ubay, 1 \u00bd kilometers away from the crime scene.28 At the time of the alleged incident, he was in his house sleeping. In fact, he was already sleeping by 6:00 in the evening as he drank alcohol in the market earlier that day. He woke up at around 8:00 in the morning of the following day; he noticed nothing unusual.29\nSometime after January 26, 1999, the appellant was invited by authorities to the police station. There, he met Ana for the first time. He was informed that he is among the suspects in connection with the rape of Ana. He was also informed that when Ana was asked if he was the culprit, she did not say anything but simply cried.30\nThe appellant further stated that he did not drive the tricycle on January 29, 1999 because the owner would use it for the Ubay town fiesta. After the town fiesta, the appellant left for Manila to look for a better paying job. He was subsequently hired as a security guard and he was arrested while he was at his post as security guard at Jollibee in Dau, Pampanga.31\nAfter hearing the parties, the trial court gave credence to Ana\u2019s account of her harrowing experience in a \u201crichly detailed testimony, delivered in a clear, forthright and straightforward manner.\u201d32 The results of the medical examination describing the injuries Ana suffered underscored the truthfulness of her story. Her positive identification of the appellant as her assailant negated his alibi. His sudden flight from Ubay, Bohol also indicated guilt on his part.33 Thus, in an Omnibus Decision dated September 21, 2007, the RTC found the appellant guilty beyond reasonable doubt of the crimes of rape by sexual assault and rape by sexual intercourse, both of which were committed with the use of deadly weapon. The dispositive portion of the decision reads:chanRoblesvirtualLawlibrary\nWHEREFORE, in Criminal Case No. 99-511 the Court finds the accused guilty beyond reasonable doubt of rape under Art. 266-A, paragraph 2 in relation to Art. 266-B of the Revised Penal Code, as amended by R.A. No. 8353 and hereby sentences him to suffer the penalty of 4 years and 2 months of prision correccional to 14 years, 8 months and 1 day of reclusion temporal with all the accessory penalties of the law, with costs.\nIn Criminal Case No. 99-512 the Court likewise finds the accused guilty beyond reasonable doubt of rape under Art. 266-A, paragraph 1 in relation to Art. 266-B of the Revised Penal Code, as amended by RA No. 8353 and sentences him to suffer the penalty of reclusion perpetua, with costs.\nThe accused is further ordered to pay the offended party the amount of P50,000 as civil indemnity and P50,000 as moral damages in each of the two cases.34\nThe appellant appealed his case to the Court of Appeals. He asserted that the trial court erred in convicting him despite the fact that his guilt was not proven beyond reasonable doubt.35 He mentioned various matters to make his point: the identity of the alleged perpetrator of the crime was doubtful; the prosecution failed to prove that it was the appellant who was driving the tricycle on the night of the alleged rape and that it was the appellant who raped Ana; the darkness of the night prevented Ana from seeing clearly and recognizing her attacker; Ana\u2019s behavior and reaction before, during and after the alleged rape was questionable, in particular, she did not shout when she was being chased by her rapist, she did not do anything to prevent the assault against her, she did not call for help or attempt to free herself when she had the opportunity; and, the medical certificate neither stated nor proved the appellant\u2019s involvement in the rape of Ana.36\nThe Court of Appeals, however, agreed with the RTC that it was proven beyond reasonable doubt that the appellant violated Article 266-A(2) and committed rape by sexual assault against Ana when he placed his penis into her mouth after poking a gun at her head and punching her. The Court of Appeals also agreed with the RTC that it was proven beyond reasonable doubt that the appellant violated Article 266-A(1)(a) and committed rape by sexual intercourse against Ana when he had carnal knowledge of her against her will through force and intimidation. The medical findings detailing the injuries inflicted upon Ana further confirm the commission of the crimes against her.37\nThe Court of Appeals rejected the contentions of the appellant and upheld the finding of the RTC that his victim had positively identified him as her assailant. The prosecution established that Susie and Ana recognized the appellant\u2019s face when they boarded his tricycle because the place was illuminated by streetlights and light from the nearby chapel and the houses in the area. Moreover, when Susie beamed her flashlight at the tricycle, Ana had the opportunity to recognize the appellant as the driver and to notice that he was wearing denim pants and a red polo shirt.38\nThe Court of Appeals also pointed out that Ana identified the appellant not only by his appearance but also by the sound of his voice. She remembered his voice when he was negotiating with her and Susie for a ride to Barangay Ekis, when Susie disembarked from the tricycle, and when he told her that the tricycle\u2019s fuel had gone empty. Ana\u2019s positive identification of the accused-appellant as her assaulter negated the appellant\u2019s denial and alibi.39\nThe appellate court found no merit in the appellant\u2019s claim that Ana\u2019s failure to shout for help and to repel the assault of her rapist eroded her credibility and made her allegation of sexual intercourse against her will unbelievable. The appellate court noted Ana\u2019s consistent testimony that she ran away and shouted for help but the appellant caught her, covered her mouth, pointed his gun at her and threatened to kill her; that she fought against him, even when she was already on the ground, but he mercilessly punched her; that she cried and begged him to stop but he ignored her and threatened her again; and, that she shouted because of pain when he forcefully inserted his penis into her vagina.40\nFinally, the Court of Appeals modified the appellant\u2019s civil liability. It awarded Ana P30,000.00 civil indemnity, P30,000.00 moral damages and P30,000.00 exemplary damages for the rape by sexual assault in Criminal Case No. 99-511, and P50,000.00 civil indemnity, P50,000.00 moral damages and P30,000.00 exemplary damages for the rape by sexual intercourse in Criminal Case No. 99-512.41\nThus, in a Decision dated July 28, 2011, the Court of Appeals denied the appeal of the appellant and affirmed the Omnibus Decision dated September 21, 2007 of the RTC which found the appellant guilty of the crimes of rape by sexual assault and rape by sexual intercourse committed against Ana. The decretal portion of the Decision dated July 28, 2011 reads:chanRoblesvirtualLawlibrary\nWHEREFORE, the appeal is DENIED. The assailed Decision is AFFIRMED with MODIFICATIONS. As thus modified, accused- appellant in Criminal Case No. 99-512 is ordered to pay the private complainant [Ana] P50,000.00 as civil indemnity, P50,000.00 as moral damages, and P30,000.00 as exemplary damages. In Criminal Case No. 99-511, accused-appellant is ordered to pay private complainant [Ana] P30,000.00 as civil indemnity, P30,000.00 as moral damages, and P30,000.00 as exemplary damages.42\nHence, this appeal where the appellant adopts in full and reiterates the contents and substance of the brief which he filed in the Court of Appeals.43\nThus, the appellant continues to insist that his guilt was not proven beyond\nreasonable doubt and his case basically rests on what he believes to be his victim\u2019s highly doubtful identification of him as the perpetrator of the crime.\nThe appeal fails.\nUnder Article 266-A of the Revised Penal Code, as amended by Republic Act No. 8353,44 rape may be committed in two ways:chanRoblesvirtualLawlibrary\n2) By any person who, under any of the circumstances mentioned in paragraph 1 hereof, shall commit an act of sexual assault by inserting his penis into another person\u2019s mouth or anal orifice, or any instrument or object, into the genital or anal orifice of another person.\nAs the felony is defined under Article 266-A, rape may be committed either by sexual intercourse under paragraph 1 or by sexual assault under paragraph 2.45\nRape by sexual intercourse is a crime committed by a man against a woman. The central element is carnal knowledge and it is perpetrated under any of the circumstances enumerated in subparagraphs (a) to (d) of paragraph 1.46\nOn the other hand, rape by sexual assault contemplates two situations. First, it may be committed by a man who inserts his penis into the mouth or anal orifice of another person, whether a man or a woman, under any of the attendant circumstances mentioned in paragraph 1. Second, it may be committed by a person, whether a man or a woman, who inserts any instrument or object into the genital or anal orifice of another person, whether a man or a woman, under any of the four circumstances stated in paragraph 1.\nThis Court agrees with the trial and the appellate courts that the crime of rape by sexual assault was committed against Ana when a man\u2019s sex organ was forcibly inserted into her mouth after poking a gun at her head and punching her. This Court also agrees with the trial and the appellate courts that the crime of rape by sexual intercourse was committed against Ana when a man had carnal knowledge of her after delivering fist blows on her stomach, pointing a gun at her, and threatening to kill her. The physical evidence, particularly the medical report detailing the various injuries inflicted upon Ana, confirms the truth of Ana\u2019s story.\nThere is no question that the man who violated the person and dignity of Ana had his face covered by a red polo shirt. The appellant asserts that the prosecution failed to establish his identity as the author of the crimes, that he is the man with the covered face.\nAn accused enjoys the presumption of innocence until and unless his/her guilt is proven beyond reasonable doubt. The fundamental law guarantees him/her that right.47 The presumption of innocence in favor of the accused behooves the People of the Philippines, as the plaintiff in criminal cases, to prove beyond reasonable doubt not only each element of the crime but also the identity of the accused as the criminal. It requires this Court, in reviewing criminal cases, to carefully determine and establish the following:chanRoblesvirtualLawlibrary\n[F]irst, the identification of the accused as perpetrator of the crime, taking into account the credibility of the prosecution witness who made the identification as well as the prosecution\u2019s compliance with legal and constitutional standards; and second, all the elements constituting the crime were duly proven by the prosecution to be present. x x x.48\nProving the identity of the accused as the malefactor is the prosecution\u2019s primary responsibility. Thus, in every criminal prosecution, the identity of the offender, like the crime itself, must be established by proof beyond reasonable doubt. Indeed, the first duty of the prosecution is not to prove the crime but to prove the identity of the criminal, for even if the commission of the crime can be established, there can be no conviction without proof of identity of the criminal beyond reasonable doubt.49\nHere, the prosecution\u2019s evidence on the identity of the appellant as the offender is clear and unmistakable.\nAna and Susie positively identified the appellant as the driver of the tricycle in red polo shirt, which ferried them to Barangay Ekis on that fateful night of January 26, 1999. Instead of bringing Ana home, appellant brought her to the quarry in the pretext that the tricycle\u2019s brakes malfunctioned and the vehicle subsequently ran out of gas. Consequently, Ana was placed in a vulnerable situation that enabled the appellant to commit the crime charged. As Ana started to walk home from the quarry, appellant took off his red shirt and covered his face with it and then followed her with a gun in his hand. She ran when she noticed him and he ran after her until he caught her. He poked his gun at her, repeatedly threatened her, mercilessly hit her and raped her twice, first by sexual assault and then by sexual intercourse. His lust satiated, he went back to his tricycle and drove away. She recognized him as the one who raped her when he was presented to her at the police station two days after the incident, although he already cut his hair and shaved his beard. And she positively identified him in open court when she gave her testimony.\nWhile the appellant attempts to hide his identity in the blackness of the night, his identity has been revealed and the darkness that is his cover has been dispelled by the categorical testimonies of Susie and Ana that, while it was late into the night when they boarded the appellant\u2019s tricycle at the junction, they saw his face because the place was illuminated by light from lamp posts and the nearby chapel as well as from the houses in the vicinity. Moreover, Susie beamed her flashlight at the tricycle, giving Ana an opportunity to recognize the appellant as the driver and to notice that he was wearing denim pants and a red polo shirt, which was the same red polo shirt he used to cover his face. In other words, the tricycle driver in the red polo shirt was the same man whose face was covered with a red polo shirt -- Ana\u2019s rapist -- the appellant.\nThe Court of Appeals correctly ruled that Ana identified the appellant not only by his appearance but also by the sound of his voice. She remembered his voice when he was negotiating with her and Susie for a ride to Barangay Ekis, when Susie disembarked from the tricycle and when he told her that the tricycle\u2019s brakes malfunctioned and, later on, that the tricycle\u2019s fuel had gone empty. It was the same voice that repeatedly threatened to kill her, ordered her to take him in her mouth, asked her whether she recognized him and his tricycle, and directed her not to leave the scene of the crime until after he was gone for some time. And when she met him at the police station, despite his attempt to prevent her from recognizing him by cutting his hair and shaving his beard, it was the same voice that made her recognize him and made her cry out of fear.\nAna\u2019s testimony is clear, categorical, consistent and credible. Under its evidentiary weight, the appellant\u2019s denial and alibi collapse and crumble.\nThus, beyond reasonable doubt, the crimes of rape by sexual assault and rape by sexual intercourse committed against Ana have been established. Beyond reasonable doubt, too, it is the appellant who committed the said crimes.\nUnder Article 266-B of the Revised Penal Code, as amended, whenever rape by sexual assault is committed with the use of a deadly weapon, the penalty shall be prision mayor to reclusion temporal, or a duration of 6 years and 1 day to 20 years. As there was no attendant aggravating or mitigating circumstance, the imposable penalty is the medium period of the said duration, that is, from 10 years, 8 months and 1 day to 15 years and 4 months, pursuant to Articles 64 and 65 of the Revised Penal Code, as amended. Applying the Indeterminate Sentence Law, the minimum term shall be within prision correccional (which ranges from 6 months and 1 day to six years), the penalty next lower to prision mayor, and the maximum term shall be within the imposable penalty stated above. Hence, the RTC and the Court of Appeals correctly imposed on the appellant the indeterminate sentence of 4 years and 2 months of prision correccional as minimum and 14 years, 8 months and 1 day of reclusion temporal as maximum for the crime of rape by sexual assault committed against Ana with the use of a hand gun, a deadly weapon.\nUnder Article 266-B of the Revised Penal Code, as amended, whenever rape by sexual intercourse is committed with the use of a deadly weapon, the penalty shall be reclusion perpetua to death. As there was no attendant aggravating or mitigating circumstance, the RTC and the Court of Appeals were correct in sentencing the appellant to the lesser penalty of reclusion perpetua pursuant to Article 63(2) of the Revised Penal Code, as amended.50\nAs to the award of damages, the grant to Ana of P30,000.00 civil indemnity, P30,000.00 moral damages and P30,000.00 exemplary damages for the rape by sexual assault committed against her is proper.51 Likewise, the amounts of P50,000.00 civil indemnity, P50,000.00 moral damages and P30,000.00 exemplary damages for the rape by sexual intercourse committed against her are proper and conform with current case law.52 These amounts shall be subject to legal interest at the rate of six percent (6%) per annum from the date of finality of this judgment until fully paid, pursuant to prevailing jurisprudence.53\nWhile no amount of money may really be sufficient to fully compensate the loss of innocence and deprivation of dignity that Ana suffered in the ruthless hands of the appellant, the above amounts may somehow ease her suffering and help her move on to rebuild her life and reclaim her dignity. Finally, this Court commends her courage and strength of spirit in her quest for justice under the law.\nWHEREFORE, the Decision dated July 28, 2011 of the Court of Appeals in CA-G.R. CEB-CR-H.C. No. 000923 affirming with modifications the Omnibus Decision dated September 21, 2007 of the Regional Trial Court of Talibon, Bohol, Branch 52 in Criminal Case Nos. 99-511 and 99-512 is hereby AFFIRMED with MODIFICATION insofar as legal interest at the rate of six percent (6%) per annum is imposed on all amounts of damages awarded to the private offended party from the date of finality of this judgment until fully paid.chanRoblesvirtualLawlibrary\nSereno, C.J., (Chairperson), Reyes, Perlas-Bernabe,* and Leonen,** JJ., concur.\n* Per Special Order No. 1537 (Revised) dated September 6, 2013.\n** Per Special Order No. 1545 (Revised) dated September 16, 2013.\n1Rollo, pp. 3-20; penned by Associate Justice Nina G.

        "raw_content": "How is LED lighting different than other light sources, such as incandescent and CFL?\nLED lighting differs from incandescent and compact fluorescent lighting in several ways. When designed well, LED lighting can be more efficient, durable, versatile and longer lasting.\nLED lighting products use light emitting diodes to produce light very efficiently. An electrical current passed through semiconductor material illuminates the tiny light sources we call LEDs. The heat produced is absorbed into a heat sink.\nCommon LED colors include amber, red, green, and blue. There is actually no such thing as a \u201cwhite\u201d LED. To get white light the kind we use for lighting our homes and offices, different color LEDs are mixed or covered with a phosphor material that converts the color of the light. The phosphor is the yellow material you can see on some LED products. Colored LEDs are widely used as signal lights and indicator lights, like the power button on a computer.\nLEDs are now being incorporated into bulbs and fixtures for general lighting applications. LEDs are small and provide unique design opportunities. Some LED bulb solutions may look like familiar light bulbs and some may not but can better match the performance of traditional light bulbs. Some LED light fixtures may have LEDs built\u2013in as a permanent light source.",

Never sick in the last 30 years and now this! My friends are all loosers (I basically have none). Im on a fixed income which gets me by but now am sick and cant do much. So I had hoped to make real progress with my astronomy interests only to have our whole club be taken over by a bunch of total assholes - the club is dead, members quit, and this bunch of greedy assholes luiterally wont let me now touch (their!) equipment and they siphoned off everything usable for themselves! What a bunch of fucking pricks! I would join another club but the closet is hours away so I am stuck and cant do anything. I have waited five years for these assholes to let me in and now way are they going to. Iam literally screwed and they love it! Then they asked me to give a public presentation (I used to teach at a university). I told these assholes I wanted nothing to do with their programs - it was my last genuine gesture in defense of myself and all the good people they have run out of the club. I live at Cedar Rapids Iowa. 1+1 = 2 and now you can find the rest if you chose. I am so sick at heart over all of this. No place to turn. Stuck. Screwed.\nI know my story is typical. THATS THE WHOLE PRTOBLEM! How did things turn so bad for so many. We are all paying a huge price for the few who screw up life for millions of the rest of us.\nPosted by WTF at April 16, 2010\nTags: 2010 April Disappointment Family Poverty Relationship\nEvery since college, my life has spiraled down hill. I'm a teacher with a Masters degree and I'm always broke as hell. My wife won't listen. I married her because she got pregnant. I want to do the right thing since she already had two children out of wedlock with two different men. She had her tubes tied when she had my child despite my wishes. Now I can never have another child, but I call hers my own. That was ten years ago, but problem like that don't go away. I'm a former athelte who will never have a son. She quit her job to go back to school. She was obviously focused on other things while she was in college. Now the water is cut off, the gas is off. She hasn't worked in a year, but when I mention it I'm a jerk. Everyone wonders where my money goes like I'm a damn crack head or something. I spent most of my life loyal to Christ and GOD. I was a deacon, sunday school superintendent. Its all the same. My life sucks. I used to be pretty good looking, but now I'm bald and funny-looking. I've sacrificed the best of me for a woman who is out for herself, and won't even help me as I take care of her and her kids. I used to smoke weed daily just to get by, and I can't even afford that anymore, so I tolerate life as is. No help in site. You see, my life really sucks. Worst ... if I leave her., I will have to pay the child support that she doesn't even make the real dads pay. The sex sucks because she basically lies on her side. Lately, I've had the desire to wear women's clothing. I'm all fucked up. I think she has bitched me out. My mom passed a few years ago. My dad acts like he never had kids no that she's gone. I have no one to borrow a dollar for if I need it. If I ask a minister, everything that is happening is my fault because I'm the man. I can't go on like this. I'm at my lowest today.

After 10 years of fighting was finally able to get my green card and thought life was going to be better, but was I wrong my own son made it a living hell using drugs,drinking going to jail and the latest getting together with a stripper and getting her pregnant and the fighting the abuse and the ugliness that accompanies people nowadays made it even worse, then the expense and fighting for the custody of my grand baby whom I more than adore. I have a very physically demanding job which I have done for 21 years and that has taken a toll on my body my hips are gone I never done drugs, don't drink or smoke because I thought that if I respected my body it would take care of me....and man was I wrong I walk like a 90 year old man and the latest I am developing problems with my elbows..cant stop working because years of supporting my parents and 3 brothers have also taken a toll on my finances....and last year sometime in June was thinking about ending my own life..even planned how to but the strength of the love that I feel for my grand baby prevented me from doing it..Im even feel ashamed to publish this sitting here alone at 2:35 am in front of my computer...but writing about it somehow helps",

        "raw_content": "LHC WAS BORN\nA Spiritual Home to Belong to\u2026\nOur story begins with a small group of people desiring to find a place where they belong. They were looking for a place where they can worship and be free in expressing their love for God. They went searching for a place where they could explore the depths of God\u2019s love, discover the grace and purpose God has for them and then authentically live out the vision God has for them individually and the mission God has for them as a community. In short they were searching for a place to spiritually grow, raise their families and pursue Jesus Christ and His Kingdom.\nStarting a Place to Belong\u2026\nAs a result of searching for this place that existed in their hearts in November 1993 they birthed a new community called Living Hope Community Church. This place exists to let everyone know that here they can find a place to belong, a place where they can explore their relationship with Christ, a place where all people can come as they are and seek God through worship and find God\u2019s vision for their life.\nOn November 23, 1993 the first official worship service was held at the Fox Lake Town Hall. The space was just large enough to hold all of us! After worshiping in that facility for about 2 months we moved to Bethany Presbyterian Church in Randolph, WI.\nOur time at Bethany was a time of growth but we continued to feel God calling us to the Fox Lake area and the surrounding community. In February of 2003 we moved to the Fox Lake Elementary School. Shortly thereafter we opened a Ministry Center downtown Fox Lake to help us better reach the Youth of Fox Lake.\nLHC BUILDS ROOTS. Construction begins on new building\nPlanting Roots: Our Commitment\u2026\nIn 2005, we decided it was time to make a long-term commitment to Fox Lake. By God\u2019s grace, we had reached a unified point that it was time to build a new facility in Fox Lake. Despite our fears, doubts and short-comings, we were being compelled to move forward and build in faith. We were able to start our building project in early 2006, and we had our first service there on New Year\u2019s Eve, 2006.\nPRESENT DAY \u2013\nConnect - Grow - GO!\nIn April 2016, Pastor Rod Galindo joined the Living Hope Community Church family as Senior Pastor. With a new pastor, comes a new chapter and an opportunity to re-evaluate the current vision and direction of the church. The church vision has always been to create a place where people can feel welcome and have the opportunity to connect and grow in their relationship with Christ and with each other. We have been able to accomplish that by ramping up our small groups, adding new classes and making it even easier for people to get connected and become part of the living, breathing fabric of the Living Hope Church Community.",

Annie is a young, cheerful foster child who\u2019s also tough enough to make her way on the streets of New York. In this 2014 adaptation of the 1977 Broadway musical, she is left by her parents as a baby with the promise that they would return for her. It\u2019s been a hard-knock life ever since with her mean foster mom Miss Hannigan (Cameron Diaz). Yet everything is about to change when the hard-nosed tycoon and New York mayoral candidate Will Stacks (Jamie Foxx) makes a thinly-veiled campaign move and takes her in. Stacks believes he\u2019s her guardian angel, but Annie\u2019s self-assured nature and bright, sun-will-come-out-tomorrow outlook on life just might mean it\u2019s the other way around.

The palace was commissioned by Ludwig II of Bavaria as a retreat and as a homage to Richard Wagner. Contrary to common belief, Ludwig paid for the palace out of his personal fortune and extensive borrowing, not with Bavarian public funds.\nThe palace was intended as a personal refuge for the reclusive king, but it was opened to the paying public immediately after his death in 1886. Since then over 60 million people have visited Neuschwanstein Castle. More than 1.3 million people visit annually, with up to 6,000 per day in the summer. The palace has appeared prominently in several movies and was the inspiration for Disneyland's Sleeping Beauty Castle and later, similar structures.\nHuge Collection of Neuschwanstein Castle Pictures / Photos / Wallpapers / Images\nLostMonuments.com offers the Neuschwanstein Castle Images, Photos, Wallpapers and Pictures for you.

        "raw_content": "Research on maya angelou\nWhat Is the Meaning of Experimental Research?\nWhat Is the Manipulated Variable in an Experiment?\n\u2776But I hope that helped.\nWhat Is an Experiment Called When Only One Variable Is Changed at a Time?\nThere are so many factors to take into account and evaluate. The research question , ethics , budget and time are all major considerations in any design. This is before looking at the statistics required, and studying the preferred methods for the individual scientific discipline. Every experimental design must make compromises and generalizations , so the researcher must try to minimize these, whilst remaining realistic.\nFor biology, psychology and social sciences, there can be a huge variety of methods to choose from, and a researcher will have to justify their choice. The first method is the straightforward experiment, involving the standard practice of manipulating quantitative, independent variables to generate statistically analyzable data.\nGenerally, the system of scientific measurements is interval or ratio based. The researcher is accepting or refuting the null hypothesis. The results generated are analyzable and are used to test hypotheses , with statistics giving a clear and unambiguous picture. This research method is one of the most difficult, requiring rigorous design and a great deal of expense, especially for larger experiments.\nThe other problem, where real life organisms are used, is that taking something out of its natural environment can seriously affect its behavior. It is also the biggest drain on time and resources, and is often impossible to perform for some fields, because of ethical considerations.\nThe Tuskegee Syphilis Study was a prime example of experimental research that was fixated on results, and failed to take into account moral considerations. In other fields of study, which do not always have the luxury of definable and quantifiable variables - you need to use different research methods.\nThese should attempt to fit all of the definitions of repeatability or falsifiability , although this is not always feasible. Opinion based research methods generally involve designing an experiment and collecting quantitative data.\nFor this type of research, the measurements are usually arbitrary, following the ordinal or interval type. Questionnaires are an effective way of quantifying data from a sample group, and testing emotions or preferences. This method is very cheap and easy, where budget is a problem, and gives an element of scale to opinion and emotion. These figures are arbitrary, but at least give a directional method of measuring intensity. By definition, this experiment method must be used where emotions or behaviors are measured, as there is no other way of defining the variables.\nWhilst not as robust as experimental research , the methods can be replicated and the results falsified. Observational research is a group of different research methods where researchers try to observe a phenomenon without interfering too much.\nObservational research methods, such as the case study , are probably the furthest removed from the established scientific method. Research method can be define as the search for knowledge or as any systematic investigation to establish facts.\nWhat is non-experimental method? Involves studying naturally occurring variation in the dependent and independent variable without any intervention by the researcher. What is non-experimental research? Research which lacks a true independent variable which ismanipulated by the experimenter.\nUseful in situations where it isnot possible or not ethical to manipulate the variable of interest. What are the disadvantages of the experimental method? A positive would be: Compare and contrast experimental methods in psychology and descriptive method? Compare And Contrast Qualitative And Quantitaitve Research Methods Compare and contrast Qualitative and Quantitative research methods Monique Gowans Charles Stuart University Compare and Contrast Qualitative and Quantitative Research Methods Qualitative research methods are complex meaningful analysis characterised by processes and meanings that are not experimentally examined or measured in terms of mathematical measurements Lincoln, ; Sarantakos, Quantitative research however, relies and builds on mathematical procedures and methods, such as frequency, quality, amount and statistical procedure.\nThis paper will compare and contrast both qualitative and quantitative research methods endeavouring to highlight differences and similarities between the two methods. Qualitative analysis adds emphasis to questions that stress 'how' or 'what meaning' is created and given to certain. What is the difference between descriptive research and experimental research? Descriptive research does not explain cause-effect.\nHowever, as with experimental research, descriptive research may be used to study animal behaviour. What experimental method can determine the density of metal? Density is the mass of the object divided by its volume. By this principle, to determine the density of a metal, place the metal onto a scale to measure its mass.\nAfter this, place the metal into a beaker of water and measure the volume change in the beaker. Divide the mass by the volume and you get the density. What is the difference between experimental and non experimental research designs? Non-experimental research is done by examining data from otherresearch studies and compiling observations. There are no originalexperiments conducted in this type of research. Experimentalresearch is done by conducting original experiments.\nWhat are the steps of the experimental method in order? Organizing and Analyzing Data. Difference between experimental and non-experimental research in political science? The difference between experimental and non-experimental research in any social science field is that experimental research involves testing a hypothesis in a controlled environment, while non-experimental research involves examining the pre-existing scenario in the world or patient, for psychology, which is sometimes called a social science rather than medical science , and attempting to draw conclusions from the situation - usually a cause-effect relationship.\nSome social sciences, particularly history, archaeology, and political science, tend toward the non-experimental research methods. There is simply no way to form a meaningful experiment for the majority of these fields, as the situation is far too complex to create a controlled example of.\nPsychology and anthropology, on the other hand, are much more inclined to experimental research for determining patterns, though non-experimental research is required for diagnosis or categorization of a specific individual or group. What are advantages and disadvantages of experimental research? An advantage is the researcher can determine the cause andeffect of a study.\nA disadvantage is that the manipulator must beprecise in their experiments, and extra variable that is notplanned for may scrub the entire study. What are the differences between action research and experimental research? In \"Action Research\" the researcher is part of the process under investigation; in \"Experimental Research\" the researcher tries not to influence the process. Disadvantages of experimental method in psychology?\nThe potential disadvantages with the experimental method are that the lab setting may inhibit natural behavior; findings may not generalize to real world low ecological validity ; and the potential for unethical or impossible experiment. Describe the steps of the experimental method? Compare descriptive research and experimental research design? Characteristics of the Three Research Designs. Research design Goal Advantages Disadvantages.\nTo create a snapshot of the current state of affairs. Provides a relatively complete picture of what is occurring at a given time. Allows the development of questions for further study.. Does not assess relationships among variables.\nMay be unethical if participants do not know they are being observed.. To assess the relationships between and among two or more variables. Allows testing of expected relationships between and among variables and the making of predictions. Can assess these relationships in everyday life events..\nCannot be used to draw inferences about the causal relationships between and among the variables.. To assess the causal impact of one or more experimental manipulations on a dependent variable. Allows drawing of conclusions about the causal relationships among variables.. Cannot experimentally manipulate many important variables. May be expensive and time consuming..\nHow does nonexperimental research differ from experimental research? Research which lacks a true independent variable which is manipulated by the experiment. Useful in situations where it is possible or not ethical to manipulate the variable of interest. Scientific investigation in which the investigator manipulates and controls one or more independent variables to determine their effects on the outcome dependent variable.\nWhat is experimental method of Marketing research? Is a research technique in which a researcher observes the results of changing on or more marketing variables while keeping other variables constant under controlled conditions. What are the characteristics of the experimental method? The characteristics of the experimental method is that varioustests are usually done. The test results are then analyzed and usedto come up with certain conclusions.\nExplain the difference between experimental and non-experimental research? This answer could have dozens of lines but essentially, in experimental research it's mandatory to manipulate the variables.\nIn non-experimental studies you don't manipulate them. Is qualitative research same as experimental research? No, it is not the same. Qualitative research is usually seen as the opposite of quantitative research, of which experimental research is a type of.\nQualitative research deals with words, concepts and themes - often answering 'why - questions. It leads to better understanding of life experiences and is holistic in nature.\nInformation is collected through individual or group focus group interviews, observation and unstructured observation. Information is analysed through interpretation and the findings is often unique to a specific context in specific time and not supposed to be generalized to other contexts.\nQuantitative research is based on logical positivism with strict rules. It usually deals with numbers and statistics. The research is supposed to be as objective a possible and the findings to be true in all contexts. Within this family of research experimental research is objective, systematic, controlled investigation to examine probability and causibility among selected independent and dependent variables for the purpose of predicting and controlling. Experimental method in psychology?\nThere are many different methods of experiments. I would have been able to help you more if you were more specific. However i can tell you that, there are different types of methods for everything. All scans are used for different operations. Also keep in mind that experiments are not always to take place inside a lab. For instance a rat does not always act the same as it would outside, inside a lab. So in some experiments psychologists choose to do their study outside the lab for more accurate results.\nElements of quasi experimental and experimental research? Experiments study the influence of one or more variable on another. They manipulate the first variable, or variables, which are called independent variables and study the impact it has on the final variable, called the dependent variable. The researchers can make causal conclusions based on the results.\nQuasi-experiments are those where the \"independent variable\" cannot be manipulated by the researchers. These include correlational studies where the researchers examine the relationships between two or more variables that already exist; and studies with subject variables, which are preexisting differences between the subjects or participants being studies and can therefore not be manipulated. Quasi-experiments are still very useful and important, but no causal conclusions can be drawn from them.\nAn experiment might study the effect of studying on test scores by having two groups of people study for different amounts of time and then write the same test. The independent variable is the amount of time a person studied say, 1 hour or 5 hours and the dependent variable is their score on the test. The results might lead the researchers to conclude that studying increases tests scores.\nA quasi-experiment might study the relationship between the scores on a test of early-birds and night-owls by having 10 of each group take a test. The subject variable is whether the participant is an early-bird or a night-owl; the experimenter cannot manipulate this variable.\nThe dependent variable is the score on the test. If there is a difference between the groups' scores, the researcher can only say that night-owls and early-birds differ in their test scores.\nGive some examples of experimental research titles? There are new experiments taking place in research every day. Someexamples of experimental research titles that could be used ontopics effecting the people of today include \"Are schools thatallow prayer stronger than schools that don't?\nWhat are the advantages and disadvantages of experimental design in research? Advantages of experimental design in research: Experimental design allows scientists to draw conclusions about the causal relationship among variables under controlled conditions.\nMany important variables cannot be manipulated. It can be expensive and time consuming. Human errors can occur.. If you are referring to lab experiments, it is to firmly establish cause and effect, otherwise it is to establish causal relationships.\nWhat are the control and experimental groups in the scientific method?\nThe word experimental research has a range of definitions. In the strict sense, experimental research is what we call a true experiment. This is an experiment where the researcher manipulates one variable, and control/randomizes the rest of the variables.\nAn experiment is an investigation in which a hypothesis is scientifically tested. In an experiment, an independent variable (the cause) is manipulated and the dependent variable (the effect) is measured; any extraneous variables are maden.ga: Saul Mcleod.\nExperimental Research Methods. The first method is the straightforward experiment, involving the standard practice of manipulating quantitative, independent variables to generate statistically analyzable data. Generally, the system of scientific measurements is interval or ratio based. When we talk about \u2018scientific research methods\u2019, this is what most people immediately think of, because it passes all of . In experimental research, researchers use three basic experiment designs: pre-experiment, true experiment and quasi-experiment, as explained in the section below. Pre-experimental research: In pre-experimental research, researchers follow basic experimental steps but do not use a control group.\nThe experimental method is a systematic and scientific approach to research in which the researcher manipulates one or more variables, and controls and measures any change in other variables. DEFINITION OF EXPERIMENTAL METHOD In the strict sense, experimental research is what we call a true experiment. In some disciplines (e.g., psychology or political science), a 'true experiment' is a method of social research in which there are two kinds of variables. The independent variable is manipulated by the experimenter, and the dependent variable is measured.",

That in regard to the doctrine of redemption as taught in the subordinate standard, and in consistency therewith, the love of God to all mankind, His gift of His Son to be the propitiation for the sins of the whole world, and the free offer of salvation to men without distinction on the grounds of Christ\u2019s all sufficient sacrifice, are regarded by this Church as vital to the Christian faith. And inasmuch as the Christian faith rests upon, and the Christian consciousness takes hold of, certain objective supernatural historic facts, especially the incarnation, the atoning life and death, and the resurrection and ascension of our Lord, and His bestowment of His Holy Spirit, this Church regards those whom it admits to the office of the Holy Ministry as pledged to give a chief place in their teaching to these cardinal facts, and to the message of redemption and reconciliation implied and manifested in them.\n2. That the doctrine of God\u2019s eternal decree, including the doctrine of election to eternal life, is held as defined in the Confession of Faith, Chapter III, Section 1, where it is expressly stated that according to this doctrine, \u201cneither is God the author of sin, nor is violence offered to the will of the creature, nor is the liberty or contingency of second causes taken away, but rather established\u201d; and further, that the said doctrine is held in connection and harmony with the truth \u2013 that God is not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance, that He has provided a salvation sufficient for all, and adapted to all, and offered to all in the Gospel, and that every hearer of the Gospel is responsible for his dealing with the free and unrestricted offer of eternal life.\n3. That while none are saved except through the mediation of Christ and by the grace of the Holy Spirit, Who worketh when and where and how it pleaseth Him; while the duty of sending the Gospel to the heathen who are sunk in ignorance, sin and misery is imperative; and while the outward and ordinary means of salvation for those capable of being called by the Word are the ordinances of the Gospel, in accepting the subordinate standard it is not required to be held that any who die in infancy are lost, or that God may not extend His Grace to any who are without the pale of ordinary means, as it may seem good in His sight.\n4. That in holding and teaching, according to the Confession of Faith, the corruption of man\u2019s nature as fallen, this Church also maintains that there remain tokens of man\u2019s greatness as created in the image of God, that he possesses a knowledge of God and of duty \u2013 that he is responsible for compliance with the moral law and the call of the Gospel, and that, although unable without the aid of the Holy Spirit to return to God unto salvation, he is yet capable of affections and actions which of themselves are virtuous and praiseworthy.\n5. That liberty of opinion is allowed on matters in the subordinate standard not essential to the doctrine therein taught, the Church guarding against the abuse of this liberty to the injury of its unity and peace.\n6. That with regard to the doctrine of the civil magistrate and his authority and duty in the sphere of religion, as taught in the subordinate standard the church holds that the Lord Jesus Christ is the only King and Head of the Church, \u201cand Head over all things to the Church, which is His body.\u201d It disclaims, accordingly, intolerant or persecuting principles and does not consider its office-bearers, in subscribing the Confession, as committed to any principles inconsistent with the liberty of conscience and the right of private judgement, declaring in the words of the Confession that \u201cGod alone is Lord of the conscience\u201d.\nIII Any proposed revision or abridgement of the subordinate standard of the Church, or restatement of its doctrine, or change of the formula, shall, before being adopted, be remitted to the local assemblies, and through them to the presbyteries, and no change shall be made without the consent of a majority of the local assemblies, three-fifths of the presbyteries of the whole Church, and a majority of three-fifths of the members present when the final vote of the General Assembly is taken.\nIV On any change being made in the Basis of Union in accordance with Section III, if any congregation thereupon refuses to acquiesce in the change and determines to adhere to the original basis of union, the General Assembly is empowered \u2013 (1) to allow such congregation to retain all its congregational property; or (2) to deal in such other way with the said property as to the Assembly may seem just and equitable.\nV Any proposed change in either of the two preceding Sections III and IV shall be made only under the provisions contained in section III.\nVI Formula to be signed by ministers and elders at their ordination or induction, and by probationers on receiving licence:-\nI own and accept the Subordinate Standard of this Church, with the explanations given in the articles contained in the declaratory statement, as an exhibition of the sense in which I understand the Holy Scriptures, and as a confession of my faith. I further own the purity of worship practised in this Church, and the Presbyterian government thereof to be founded on the Word of God, and agreeable thereto; and I promise that through the Grace of God I shall firmly and constantly adhere to the same, and to the utmost of my power shall in my station assert, maintain, and defend the doctrine, worship and government of this Church.\n1. The power under Section III has been used twice. Due to the shortage of ordained ministers during the First World War, the GAA in 1916 (BB 1916 Min. 70) amended the Confession of Faith Chapter XXVII, Section IV to allow for administration of the Sacraments by other than ordained ministers (see Chapter 4.2 of Constitution, Procedure and Practice)\nIn 1928 (BB 1928 Min. 57) the GAA amended the Confession of Faith Chapter XXIV Section IV to permit marriage of a man with his deceased wife\u2019s sister, or of a woman with her deceased husband\u2019s brother (see Chapter 5.1 of Constitution, Procedure and Practice)\n2. When these amendments were made under Section III, no congregation exercised the right under Section IV to adhere to the original basis of union.\nTaken from Presbyterian Church of Australia Constitution, Procedure and Practice.

        "raw_content": "By A.C. Michael\nNew Delhi, Jan 31, 2019: The Catholic Bishops\u2019 Conference of India has brought together supporters of Kandhamal survivors to seek fresh legal options for seven \u201cinnocent\u201d Christians convicted of murdering a Hindu religious leader more than ten years ago.\nThe January 29 meeting at the CBCI headquarters in New Delhi was held after the Orissa High Court summarily dismissed the bail application of the seven on December 4, 2018.\nThe national consultation also discussed the situation in Kandhamal and cases related to the 2008 communal violence in the district of Odisha state.\nMore than 100 people were killed; thousands of Christian homes and places of worship damaged and tens of thousands of Christians were forced to flee their villages to refugee camps.\nCBCI secretary general Bishop Theodore Mascarenhas welcomed the gathering on behalf of Cardinal Oswald Gracias, the president.\nHe thanked those who over the past ten years have assisted, helped and have labored in what the prelate said was \u201cvery difficult and sometimes hostile circumstances\u201d to bring relief and legal help to the affected people.\nThe consultation, he explained, was convened at the request of Archbishop John Barwa of Cuttack-Bhubaneswar who wanted to review the Church\u2019s interventions in Kandhamal, especially after the refusal of bail to the seven who he says were falsely implicated in the killing of Swami Laxmanananda Saraswati.\nThe Cuttack-Bhubaneswar archdiocese covers Kandhamal district.\nArchbishop Barwa, Fathers Dibya Singh Parichha, a lawyer, and other activists highlighted the need for those aiding legal and other battles for the Kandhamal survivors to come together for renewed efforts to bring justice.\nMascarenhas underlined the need for patience and perseverance while commending the participants\u2019 efforts in dealing with the cases of the seven and compensation for other survivors.\n\u201cWhatever steps we take should be in favor of delivering justice to the victims but also making sure that old wounds are not reopened and our final aim should be to work for a complete reconciliation and promote peace and social harmony,\u201d the Church official said.\nFather Parichha, who has been handling the survivors\u2019 cases, explained that the high court summarily dismissed the bail plea for the seven without much discussion. He and Father Singh told the participants that the cases were being conducted in a \u201cvery hostile\u201d legal climate.\nFather Parichha pointed out that more than 315 cases against rioters have been reopened in the trial court, as many as 150 cases have not been tried and 284 cases have been partly heard and are pending in the Sessions Court. As of now 493 people have been convicted in 78 cases and another 170 cases of appeals and reviews are coming up for hearing in the High court. Two rape cases are also under trial.\nThe activists stressed the need for central coordination and requested that the CBCI take up the leadership and provide the direction.\nThe participants noted that funds were needed \u201cin a big way at this crucial stage.\u201d They suggested creation of a central fund at the CBCI and all Christian denominations declare a Kandhamal Day for fund collection through various ways.\nThe participants urged the Catholic Church to speed up the causes of canonization of the Catholic martyrs and that the Word Council of Churches take up the cases of other Christian martyrs through its own procedures. Such a move would provide a big boost to the Kandhamal area, they added.\nThe consultation noted that the sufferings of Kandhamal survivors were not sufficiently diffused in the country and called for ways and means to spread information about what happened so that the victims and the legal process find help and support.\nSimilarly, the meeting also suggested prioritizing the cases according to the solidity of the evidence available.\nVrinda Grove, renowned activist and lawyer who has been one of the eminent lawyers heading the legal battle for the Kandhamal survivors, requested streamlining the work and bringing it under one coordinating authority to avoid fissures between lawyers.\nBishop Mascarenhas thanked Kandhamal supporters such as Grover, John Dayal, Colin Gonsalves, Rebecca John and journalist Anto Akkara, who has been probing the political and communal angles of the case with \u201cmuch courage and determination.\u201d\nThe consultation was also attended by Father Jervis D\u2019Souza, CBCI deputy secretary general, Sister Lalita Roshni, assistant secretary of the CBCI office for Tribal Affairs, Sonia Daniel, director projects of Evangelical Fellowship of India, Michael Williams, president, United Christian Forum, Sister Teresa Paul, Tehmina Arora of the Alliance Defending Freedom.\nTags: CBCI, Innocent Seven, Kandhamal survivors\nPrevious Miscreants attack priests in Meghalaya church, flee with cash\nNext \u201cFather of dropouts\u201d dies\n2 thoughts on \u201cBishops\u2019 conference discusses fresh Kandhamal options\u201d\nIt is difficult to comment on cases that are sub judice at the level of the High Court. Also the statement by Bp Theodore Mascarenhas needs to also be borne in mind that we should not do anything that can re-open fresh wounds and hostility.\nKulakanta Dandasena says:\nChurch must stand with people who are accused in murder case for last 10 years and very little concern towards their families",

The hard reality that many businesses face in building successful relationships though is that it is challenging to focus on growing both their and their customer\u2019s businesses simultaneously. As a result, the customer\u2019s end of the relationship over time begins to lose out to quarterly targets, shareholders, personal priorities, buyouts, etc.\nFounded in 1975 as the originator of medical bill review software solutions in the workers\u2019 compensation, auto liability, and general health community, Medata understands and believes in the power of business relationships/partnerships.

Over the next eight years, the Packers assembled six division titles, five NFL championships, two Super Bowls (the first and second ever played) and amassed an overall record of 98-30-4. It wasn\u2019t great strategy or a team full of high-profile players or even a playbook with hundreds of complex play schemes that achieved this success but rather a leader and a team relentlessly focused on the basics of blocking and tackling. As memorialized by Coach Lombardi, \u201cSome people try to find things in this game that don\u2019t exist but football is only two things \u2013 blocking and tackling.\u201d In his book That First Season: How Vince Lombardi Took the Worst Team in the NFL and Set It on the Path to Glory, John Eisenberg chronicles that:\n(Coach Lombardi\u2019s) playbook would be staggeringly simple, one-fourth the size of Scooter\u2019s, totaling around forty plays. And the plays were as basic as white bread \u2013 runs off tackle, up the middle, and around end, passes to receivers of the middle, toward the sideline, and out of the backfield. The alignment wouldn\u2019t change from play to play\u2026. \u201cIf you block well, execute, and eliminate mistakes, this is all you need,\u201d Lombardi said. \u201cIt doesn\u2019t matter that the other team knows what is coming.\u201d\nCoach Lombardi ensured winning via a constancy of purpose on executing the core skills. In practice after practice and game after game his team was built around perfectly executing the blocking and tackling. As a result, the Packers proved that in life and business if you focus on the basics you will succeed as they achieved win after win over supposedly \u201cmore superior\u201d teams with abundant strategies and marque players. Unfortunately, many companies today in the age of sound bites, tweets, and selfies have either forgotten how to block and tackle or have just dismissed its importance.\nWhat are the fundamental activities that are performed within your business day in and day out that make or break your team\u2019s ability to win or lose?

Continue reading \u2192\n\u201cIt\u2019s d\u00e9j\u00e0 vu all over again!\u201d\nWell, it is that time of year again, a time to think kindly of the wisdom of the Yogi-isms left to us by Lawrence Peter \u201cYogi\u201d Berra. After witnessing Mickey Mantle and then Roger Maris hit back-to-back home runs over and over again in the 1960s, Mr. Berra quipped, \u201cIt\u2019s d\u00e9j\u00e0 vu all over again.\u201d His wit and wisdom \u2013 which appear to be encapsulated in the nonsensical \u2013 always seem to perfectly capture an idea or emotion and could not be more appropriate in relation to the recent action by the U.S. Congress on March 27, 2014.\nWhile the medical community across the United States has been preparing-retracting, preparing-retracting (\u2026) preparing-retracting for the implementation of the ICD-10 codes for some time now (we will be kind and just use the word \u201cyears\u201d here) it was looking like the implementation finish line of October of 2014 actually had a fighting chance of being met \u2013 heck, even Vegas had dramatically reduced the posted odds to 30-1 that they would be adopted this fall.\nBut, as luck would have it, it was d\u00e9j\u00e0 vu all over again on March 27, 2014, when the U.S. House of Representatives passed \u201cHouse Resolution 4302 (H.R.4302) Protecting Access to Medicare Act of 2014.\u201d While the core of H.R.4302 is an act \u201cto amend the Social Security Act to extend Medicare payments to physicians and other provisions of the Medicare and Medicaid programs, and for other purposes,\u201d it contained an added provision to delay the adoption and use of the ICD-10 coding system from October 1, 2014, to October 1, 2015.

But what about changing this dynamic and beginning to do \u201cmore with more but with less effort?\u201d Still, as technology allows companies to gather and aggregate more-and-more data it also allows companies to become buried under more-and-more data; however, it is this data that will propel companies to become more efficient, effective, and profitable. Yet when we look at the promises of the past it is understandable to see why many companies believe that this idea of using more technology and more data to increase efficiencies and cut costs appears more onerous than realistic.

        "raw_content": "Two-thirds of Canadians okay with branded content: survey\nYahoo Canada releases a study on online users, detailing how they consume content.\nEver wondered if your online branded content is getting you the kind of eyeballs you want? Yahoo Canada has recently released a survey that may give you the insight you want on the content Canadians consume.\nThe \u201cTalking Content\u201d study, which surveyed 1,000 digital content consumers covered respondents across the country in both English and French Canada with 39% from Ontario, 24% from Quebec and 30% from the West.\nAccording to the study, 75% of respondents consume some entertainment content at least once a week, with 61% consuming lifestyle content and 53% travel content for the same time period.\nAbout two-thirds of those surveyed said that they did not have a problem with brand sponsorships around entertainment, travel and beauty content.\nBrand recall was highest in the lifestyle category. Consumers were most open to seeing branded content in the travel category. Respondents said that they spent the most time for each online session with content around entertainment, travel and beauty and style.\nThe top five categories for women included lifestyle, travel, entertainment, DIY/decor and beauty/style. Men surveyed ranked travel, entertainment, technology, politics/world news and autos/cars as their #1 to #5.\nBased on the results, Yahoo Canada released its best-practices-by-category list. For instance, 49% of those surveyed reported that their motivation to consume content in the auto category was motivated by a need \u201cto make an informed decision.\u201d That, Yahoo notes, is an opportunity to \u201chighlight brand identity\u201d by advertising vehicles that make consumers want to take those wheels out for a spin. In February this year, Autotrader.ca partnered with Yahoo to develop a native advertising campaign aimed at reaching potential buyers before they were ready to purchase.\nSome 52% of lifestyle content consumption was for self-development and learning. Yahoo Canada\u2019s best practices list notes that to fuel growth and development in this space, marketers can help customers achieve their goals by developing engaging brand integrations.\nOf the 1,000 people who participated in the survey, boomers made up 41%, while those in the 32-to-54 age group were 32% and millennials (18 to 34) were 27% of the total. Men made up 49% of the gender composition and women, 51%.\nentertainment, Lifestyle, Ontario, Quebec, travel, West Canada, Yahoo! Canada",

        "raw_content": "Did you know that approximately 2.1 billion people around the world actively use social media? This number is undoubtedly huge and brings us to how you can connect with customers on social media, and the massive potential reach you can benefit from.\nWhen it comes to building positive relationships with your customers, small businesses cannot overlook social media. According to a research report, almost 42% of customers will recommend a brand to a friend if they had a good experience with it on social media. This means that developing solid relations with customers requires small businesses to bring their A-game for social media interactions.\nThis blog will teach you the best ways small businesses build great customer relationships through social interactions and strategies. Let\u2019s get started!\nOne of the biggest problems customers on social media come across is unanswered queries. Within social media marketing lies a great opportunity for businesses to get close to their customers. However, when businesses fail to recognize this opportunity and neglect their customer queries and feedback, that\u2019s when things can get out of hand.\nAll of this is directly related to the way you perceive customer service. If you believe in offering swift customer service, it will reflect on the way you interact with your social audience. Not replying to customer queries, not solving their problems, and not responding to their feedback is what makes customers agitated. So, if you want your customers to rely on you and trust in your brand, you need to start responding to them as soon as possible. By conversing with them, you will be able to change their perception of your business.\nSpark Up Conversations\nAnswering queries is very important, but setting up a social media account and not getting engaged with your customers is where most businesses fall down. Make your customers smile by posting highly interactive, engaging, and entertaining content on each of your social media platforms. You need to keep your audience engaged on your page, offering information about your brand and sharing entertaining posts. This will help your customers associate your brand through positive, entertainment, and thought-provoking\u2013don\u2019t forget value-added content. If you are not sure which social media channels your small business should be on, refer to your content marketing strategy.\nThe people who use social media platforms are constantly in search of entertaining, useful content that they can rely on for tips and tricks as well as share among friends. So, it\u2019s important to remain active in posting new pictures, videos, blogs, etc., to keep their interest alive.\nWhile we\u2019re on the topic of superior customer engagement through social networks, Tippex is a small company that is worth a mention. The company made a 30 second video for YouTube with the title \u201cHunter Shoots a Bear\u201d. They added a twist to it by giving viewers the freedom to choose the ending. Towards the end of the video, the hunter grabs a Tippex from outside of the frame and removed the word \u2018shoot\u2019, giving viewers a chance to plan their own ending. The video received more than 21 million views, making it one of the most viral clips of the time.\nBe Socially Responsible Together\nWhen you promote a good cause and stand up for it on social media, you are able to garner a lot of attention from everyone. That\u2019s the benefit of being socially responsible. Many companies invest in Corporate Social Responsibility campaigns on digital platforms. Tyson Foods is one such company that teamed up with social media platforms to start a campaign for hunger relief in Austin, Texas. Tyson Foods agreed to donate 100 pounds of chicken for every comment on its blog. The food was sent to the Capital Area Food Bank of Texas and received 658 comments in just two hours of the campaign\u2019s activation.\nThe campaign not only fed the hungry, but also helped Tyson Foods create a positive image in the eyes of its customers in addition to helping the company expand its social media reach.\nBe Generous With Promotion Offers\nWho doesn\u2019t like discounts and special offers? A great way to capture your customers\u2019 attention is to make an offer they can\u2019t resist. That\u2019s one of the best ways to connect with more customers and re-connect with the less active ones as well.\nBy offering them a freebie to share your content, you can instantly increase your social profile traffic, which will land your brand on many profiles. This is also a great opportunity to enhance brand recognition and exposure without actually doing something. A great example of driving traffic and attracting customers can be taken from a company named Harry\u2019s. This online shaving products retailer offered free products to customers for sharing their website with others at the time of its launch. With the help of its incredible campaign, the company was able to garner 100,000 subscribers. Now that\u2019s how you do it in style!\nShare Company Insight\nIs there a new project that you are working on or is there a new product that is about to hit the stores? One of the best ways to engage more people on social media and strengthen customer relations is to tell your audience what you are up to. Tell them about a product that is in the works or when they should mark their calendars for its release. This is a great way to create excitement amongst your customers.\nBy asking your customers questions on social media, you can gather a lot of data through their answers and create engagement with them. Take is a step further and do poll questions to survey your customers about your products. The answers will give you a lot of insight on product use and quality, giving you a chance to make improvements.\nPrioritize Negative Feedbacks\nDid you know that only 49% of brands respond to social media feedbacks and mentions? Negative feedback and mentions act as red flags for a majority of businesses. The reason companies hesitate to respond or reply to such messages is that they are afraid of sparking up heated conversations and ruining their brand image. However, replying to negative comments is one of the most constructive things any company could do.\nWhen an angry or dissatisfied customer mentions your brand, there is a chance for you to try to retain the customer who is probably about to cut ties with your brand. When you reply to negative comments and try to solve problems on a public and transparent platform, that\u2019s when your customers are able to move on with the bad experience and give your brand another chance. Therefore, instead of prioritizing positive feedbacks by happy customers that are by your side, it\u2019s beneficial to instantly respond to negative comments and feedbacks to retain a lost customer.\nSocial media offers tremendous opportunities to businesses for engaging with their customers in a fun and relaxed manner. By following the aforementioned tips, your small business will be able to shine above its competition.\nWhat customer success stories can you share about your social media experience?

For instance, Person centred Counselling tends to be longer term.\nWithin the UK the boundaries between Counselling and Psychotherapy are unclear because of the cross over between disciplines, but as said above the general \"rule of thumb\" is the tendency of Counselling to be solution based with specific goals and with a fixed period of time generally set at the outset.\nPerson Centred Counselling is very closely related to Psychotherapy and is an approach developed by the American Carl Rogers, in the late 1940's and early 50's as an alternative to the prevalent analytical therapeutic approaches initially developed by Freud and others.\nIt is a non-intrusive approach which places emphasis on the need for acceptance rather than \"expert\" control or intervention. Allowing the client to trust there own process and building there own potential to understand themselves, to resolve their problems; that they are capable of self-directed growth if the nurturing therapeutic relationship is built within sessions. Therefore Person Centred Counselling relies on the personal qualities as well as the professional understanding of the Counsellor, and the quality of the counsellor/ client relationship.\nA \"good\" counsellor will have an Empathic understanding as well as an understanding of the client's experiences, being with the clients experience and guiding then to change unhelpful behaviours. This is coupled with the counsellor maintaining a genuine care for the client.\nBy focusing on the client's responsibility and capacity to discover ways of discovering more of their own reality, leading to a greater self awareness.\nSee also Psychotherapy\nPerson-centred Counselling: Therapeutic and Spiritual Dimensions\n< width=\"90\" height=\"140\">\nThis book brings together the work and writings from 12 years of the author's professional life as a person-centred therapist, during which time he has also maintained the commitment to Christianity which began in his childhood.\nHandbook of Individual Therapy\nThis book provides an excellent overview of differing mainstream counselling approaches. Written and set out in a clear and concise way it covers both theoretical and practical information. The book includes information on numerous approaches including; Cognitive, Gestalt, Personal Construct, Psychodynamic, Person-Centred, Transactional, and Rational Emotive Behaviour therapy and others.",

I am not sure where the lack of spark was, whether it was something to do with the smaller crowds, less impressive vendors or if it was something more personal- perhaps the fact that Kathy was not here to enjoy it with me, or that there seemed to be fewer friends and people I know out, but whatever the reason, Goombay just did not have the same emotional high for me this year.\nVictoria & Joe\nOn the surface, it seemed pretty much the same, but upon closer inspection you would notice that there was a lack of diversity on the vendor and food options compared to previous years. There are still the plethora of booths selling areapas and meat on a stick, but that was about the only selections possible and some of the more interesting and exotic fare has disappeared.\nShannon & Lisa\nThere is also a distinctly more commercial feel to Goombay as they even brought in a few carnival games, which may be fun for kids, but also seemed to cheapen the tropical nature of what Goombay has always been about. Whatever criticisms that I had, it still is better than most of the festivals and tons of locals and friends still pack the streets and bars that are found in Bahama Village with the epicenter still being at Blue Heaven and Johnson\u2019s Grocery.\nAaron & Howard\nFun times catching up with friends and hanging out people watching and drinking a few cold beers are still the name of the game on the street corner where all the cool kids still hang out after all these years. Even though it wasn\u2019t up to its usual high standards, I still enjoyed a couple of fun evenings hanging out and enjoying the festival.\nBefore heading over to Goombay on Saturday evening, I stopped by the Gallery on Greene art gallery to check out the latest work from local artist Andy Thurber in his exhibit, \u201cGuava Jelly\u201d. Thurber is a popular local folk artist who is also one of the studio artists at the Studios of Key West.\nHis work is beloved by both local and national collectors and it features his images of life in Key West that are at once timely and evocative of simpler times. It is fantastic art and the crowd at Gallery on Greene was happy to be there. Many of them, including the artist himself, later showing up at Goombay with the rest of the island.",

        "raw_content": "What would happen if you wrote a book about a murder and picked up a stalker? You might move across the country, right? You might look over your shoulder a bit more. You would probably be wary of new relationships. All of these things are part of Julie Prentice\u2019s reality in Fractured by Catherine McKenzie. When her family picks up and moves to a new home, they do not expect problems to follow.\nJulie meets John, a fellow neighbor, who also likes to run. The two form a fast friendship. Getting away from the local busybodies and the expectation to live up to a perfect picture of suburbia, Julie and John bond as they pound the pavement. When a minor incident leads to neighborhood drama, the friendship is tested and events snowball to a conclusion that no one expected.\nFractured is the most well named novel that I have ever read. The entire story seems fractured and disjointed. The timeline skips around in each chapter (\u201cten months ago\u201d, \u201ceight months ago\u201d), and there are Julie and John both narrate. This technique would be appropriate if it added something to the novel, but the only contribution it made was confusion. The story moves at a sluggish pace, and I was never really sure what type of book I was reading. Is it a thriller about a stalker? Is it a novel about the dangers of suburbia? Is it about an affair? The end of the book and the \u201cbig problem\u201d and its resolution made it clear that Fractured was about none of these things.\nThe characters in this story are not likable and behave in ways that are contrary to common sense. Why would you train cameras on your neighbor\u2019s house after a dog bite? Why would you just show up at a neighbor\u2019s vacation spot far from your home by \u201ccoincidence\u201d? The stalker does not even make sense in this novel. You never get a sense of why she is stalking the author.\nFractured ultimately feels like it was written with no clear plan for the outcome of the book. Plodding, predictable, and slow are the best adjectives I can use to describe it.",

Although international trade is an important part of what we do at USDA, and Brazil has long been one of our partners, my first priority is to protect American consumers.

Known as Maritimes & Northeast Pipeline, this historic project has introduced natural gas \u2013 a cleaner burning, efficient and cost competitive energy source \u2013 to areas in Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Maine and the Northeast U.S. that previously did not have access to natural gas.\nMaritimes & Northeast Pipeline (M&NP) is a 1,101-kilometre mainline transmission pipeline built to transport natural gas from developments offshore Nova Scotia to markets in Atlantic Canada and the northeastern United States. A joint venture of Enbridge Inc. (77.53%), Emera Inc. (12.92%), and ExxonMobil (9.55%), M&NP is headquartered in Halifax, Nova Scotia and operates an additional business office in Waltham, Massachusetts.\nThe M&NP system consists of an approximately 30\u2033/24\u2033 diameter underground mainline running from Goldboro, Nova Scotia through Nova Scotia and New Brunswick to the Canadian \u2013 U.S. border near Baileyville, Maine. The pipeline continues through Maine and New Hampshire into Massachusetts where it connects with the existing North American pipeline grid at Dracut, Massachusetts. The pipeline also extends from Methuen, Massachusetts to Beverly, Massachusetts.\nNatural Gas to Market\nSince our beginnings in 1999, our system has added many market delivery points in Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Maine, New Hampshire, and Massachusetts.

        "raw_content": "Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance (2012) \u2013 Review\nJune 27, 2012 June 27, 2012 Jason Rugaard 1 Comment 2012, Anthony Head, barry sonnenfeld, blade 2, brian taylor, Christopher Lambert, ciar\u00e1n hinds, gamer, Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance, Highlander, Idris Elba, mark nevedine, marvel, Nicolas Cage, spawn, spiderman\nAs a film critic I am supposed to approach every movie with an open mind. In these days of internet gossip and social media it has become nearly impossible to have an impression free experience with a movie. The almost unanimously panned Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance was not something I was looking forward to enduring, but for the sake of my craft I pushed on. It\u2019s with a silly grin and a bashfulness that I must admit, I really enjoyed this funny, loopy sequel. There seems to be a certain notion that popular entertainment is somehow less valuable than art house character studies. I\u2019ve always scoffed at that sentiment, some of the greatest b-movies from past generations have inspired the filmmakers of today. Every film deserves its day in court, so to speak, and I must be forth right in stating that this movie plastered a grin on my face and there it remained for the next 95 minutes.\nThe aspect I appreciated in this follow-up is for the first time the character of Ghost Rider is presented as a menacing figure. In the original, the CGI and dazed performance from Cage came off as campy in a movie that was pushing for Spiderman level pathos. In this incarnation Cage\u2019s off the wall line delivery and overall acting style fits right in line with the tone and energy of the film, directed with adrenaline by Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor. The pair uses comic book inspired camera placement, mixed with frantic cinematography that in its best moments recalls some of Barry Sonnenfeld work as a DP. Combining the unique talents of Nicolas Cage and Neveldine/Taylor turns out to be a brilliant pairing. I imagine from the on screen result that each is an undeniably, bizarre and gifted artist. In addition we are also given the talented Idris Elba as Moreau, this marks Elba\u2019s second appearance in a marvel franchise in as many years. There is also a surprise cameo appearance by Christopher Lambert that recalls the equally bat-shit crazy Highlander films.\nGhost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance is a movie that deserves to be mentioned along with Blade 2 and Spawn. He is a second tier hero saddled with a back story involving the devil. It\u2019s not particularly light material and with the correct creative approach these films are elevated past guilty pleasures and into the ranks of solid pop culture filmmaking. Also like those previous titles most of the film takes place at night, which in turn creates a lot of opportunities for striking lighting design, heavy on the blue and green hues, painting the actors as if they were panels on the page. Neveldine and Taylor are still fallible to their own instincts and go overboard on several occasions, these moments are cringe inducing. Yet it\u2019s the directing duo\u2019s greatest asset as well, they are energetic and bring a vivid vitality to the project. Gone is the goofy love story of the first film, I am sorry, Cage and Eva Mendez had zero chemistry. In its place we get an explanation of how Ghost Rider pisses, hint it\u2019s like a flamethrower. That last sentence should tell you if Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance is a movie for you.\n\u2190 Top 5 Best Pixar Animated Movies\nPodcast EP124: Kevin Hart, Starship Troopers, Alex Cross, Total Rekall, Fight Club \u2192\nRecreator (2012) \u2013 Review\nOne thought on \u201cGhost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance (2012) \u2013 Review\u201d\nUgh, what a terrible movie.

Based upon this, I went looking for the sheet music for Stars and expected to see F#4 as the highest note.\nMy confusion arises when I look at the sheet music for Stars (http://www.musicnotes.com/sheetmusic/mtdFPE.asp?ppn=MN0105428&ref=google). The sheet music at several websites claims clearly shows a range that is much higher than F#4 and claims to be the \"original published key\". The website lists the vocal range for Stars as B3 - E5. Am I missing something here? I thought the highest note was F#4 not E5? I thought Javert is a baritone or bass-baritone role, yet the first page of the sheet music sits so high on the treble clef that it looks like the sort of music given to the soprano section of a choir. Something is not adding up.\nCan someone please help me to understand why I can't find sheet music for Stars with an F#4 high note, despite everyone on the internet and the media commenting on a \"high F#\" as being the top note Javert has to hit? I really just want to get a copy of the sheet music that doesn't appear to contradict what people have said about the song.\nSecond question: I used a pitch tuner app to indicate the pitch Russell Crowe hits when singing the last line of Stars on the official soundtrack. I expected to see a F#4, instead the ap tells me Crowe was hitting a B3. I've even mimicked his pitch with my voice and I've verified my pitch as B3. I'm very confused because numerous articles on the internet by people more musically knowledgeable than myself have said that Crowe successfully hit all his notes, including the high F#.\nRe: Stars Vocal Range\nNo great mystery -- Most musical theatre scoring for male soloists is written with the understanding that the notes in the vocal line will be sung one octave lower than written. I'm not one who could begin to tell you why, but I do know that it can be a little disconcerting for those with a classical background.\nThe highest note in \"Stars\" is an E, not an F-sharp. The F-sharp comes at the end of \"Javert's Suicide.\"\nAnd as Thom mentioned, musical theatre material written for males in the treble clef operates under the assumption that the singer will sing it an octave lower than is actually written.\nThank you so your replies, that really clarifies. I'm surprised that on the website they don't put a little \"8\" under the treble clef to indicate to sing an octave lower, as that would be the standard notation.\nAlso the other thing I noticed is that the lyrics on the first page of that link were different (\"Fallen from grace, fallen from grace\" vs \"Fallen from God, fallen from grace\"). Must be multiple versions of the song.",

        "raw_content": "NABC Next Generation is an interview series with assistant coaches and support staff from across the country, highlighting their career experiences and future goals. Today's feature is Richard Bland assistant athletic director/assistant coach Preston Beverly.\n\u201cAs a former scholarship basketball player at the Virginia Military Institute, I knew after I finished playing that I wanted to work in college athletics. My mother was a successful NCAA DI and DII head coach who later became an athletics director, so I experienced a lot of college athletics at a very young age.\u201d\n\u201cProfessionalism at all times! No matter the setting you always need to look and act the part. Too many times I\u2019ve seen younger coaches approach the business as though they are still college students. You need to be a constant professional in the way that you dress, speak and write. Also, make sure that whatever task is assigned to you, that you get it done. No excuses, find a way.\u201d\n\u201cHaving mentors outside of the institution where you work is very beneficial. Beyond the obvious advantages of helping guide your career and providing a support system during rough times, it helps give you different perspectives on the things you are currently experiencing. In addition, they can help you develop new ideas to bring to your college. Having been an administrator as well as a coach for over half a decade, my mentors span both disciplines: Ted Quinn (former college coach and current Director of Coaches' Programs at Nations of Coaches), Tim Duncan (Director of Athletics at Clayton State University), Janet Cone (Director of Athletics at UNC Asheville) and Dr. Sharon Beverly (Beverly & Associates).\u201d\nHow do you effectively balance all the various responsibilities of an assistant coach?\n\u201cA lot of people will say that you need time management, and that is true. But to be honest there isn\u2019t enough time in the day to get everything done, so the sooner you come to grips with that the better. Sometimes you have to be comfortable with leaving the office with tasks still on your plate, but of course still have a plan and strategy to finish them in a timely manner. The method that works best for me is to make a list and prioritize. As new things come up, you\u2019ll have to readjust some of the priorities. If you have someone who can help with pieces of your work, that is always beneficial. Delegating is an area I continue to improve on.\u201d\nWhat professional competencies are you working to develop while the season is in progress, and what do you focus on during the offseason?\n\u201cI am currently working on in-game offensive adjustments in the huddle. To many times we see coaches that cannot adjust their offense when needed and lack the capability to articulate changes within a timeout. During the offseason I focus on finding new drills and expanding my own coaching philosophes and style by speaking with other coaches and working camps.\u201d\n\u201cMy current career goals are to return to an NCAA college as a coach/administrator and be a championship winning head coach at the NCAA Division II level.\u201d\n\u201cThat junior college provides a great opportunity for young coaches to develop and learn. Obviously you need to be at the right institution, and I\u2019m very fortunate to be at Richard Bland College of William & Mary with Chuck Moore as our head coach. Too many times young coaches want to jump right into a DI or DII job and haven\u2019t learned all the necessary skills of the profession. Junior college affords you a place to learn all the aspects of the profession and grants you direct access to coaches, parents and players. You are able to work camps with players of all ages and skill sets, allowing you to really develop priceless relationships with high school, post-grad and AAU coaches.\u201d",

        "title": "A Perspective by Adrienne Braumiller, Partner and Founder, Braumiller Law Group - NAFTA Guru",
        "raw_content": "The United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement\nJust before the September 30, 2018 deadline to submit the full text of a new US-MX trade pact to Congress, Canada was able to agree to updated terms and sign on to the deal, narrowly preserving the tri-lateral trade agreement that will replace the North American Free Trade Agreement. The new agreement, as of now, is to be named the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement. (USMCA)\nCanada joined the agreement hours before the deadline set by President Trump\u2019s notice to Congress in early September 2018 that the United States and Mexico had reached a deal on a new trade agreement. That started the clock for Canada to join the new deal before the United States and Mexico needed to provide Congress with full text of the new agreement. After much merry-go-round on American access to Canada\u2019s dairy sector, and a state dispute resolution system, the three North American countries finally agreed on terms.\nHighlights of the new agreement include:\nThe agreement has a sunset clause such that it will last 16 years and will be reviewed every 6 years.\nCanada and Mexico will push to resolve the Section 232 metal tariffs next, and hope to resolve the steel and aluminum tariffs before the USMCA is signed. The USMCA must be signed by each country\u2019s leader, then approved by each country\u2019s respective government bodies. The agreement would potentially take effect as early as Jan. 1, 2020.\nMany new technologies have erupted in the last 24 years, so NAFTA was due for an update. Ecommerce has certainly also sparked the need for a facelift, but modernized provisions for certification of origin (which is how countries determine which shipments qualify for duty-free status) may lead to more forgery and fraud than previously dealt with.\nUnder the new Chapter 5 Origin Procedures, certification of origin has become more flexible and lenient under the newly rebranded NAFTA, now known as the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA). A major change is the elimination of the required use of the NAFTA Certificate of Origin, a form with several fields that must be completed for the Certificate to be valid. Not only is there no more prescribed format for the certification of origin to take, but the USMCA certificate may be completed and signed electronically with a digital signature, rather than a hard copy executed first and then a soft copy retained for records. This could potentially allow for fraud or gross negligence as anyone could insert a digital signature with the name of an authorized representative. Presumably, there would be controls in place for authorized signatures, but there is room for rampant errors.\nThese declaration procedures are like the more recent FTAs, such as Korea, Australia, etc., which place more burden and responsibility on the importer to ensure that the goods qualify, rather than placing the burden primarily on the exporter, as is presently the case. A certification of origin may be completed by the importer of the goods based on the importer having information, including documents, that demonstrate the origin of the goods. The certification may be provided on an invoice or any other document that specifies that the good is both originating and meets the requirements of the agreement, and must describe the originating good in sufficient detail to enable its identification. While this flexibility appears attractive on the surface, it may open the door for more confusion, insufficient information to properly certify, and an increase in improper or invalid claims. At least with the current NAFTA Certificate of Origin an importer could facially review the document, and with some basic training, could spot tale-tale signs of incorrect claims.\nNot all of the changes are to be dreaded. New in the USMCA is a section dealing with errors or discrepancies. It provides that a Party shall not reject a certification of origin due to minor errors or discrepancies that do not create doubts concerning the correctness of the import documentation. This should provide needed flexibility when technical or minor errors would invalidate a Certificate under NAFTA. However, \u201cminor errors or discrepancies,\u201d are terms that are left undefined. Even so, the USMCA also provides that if a customs administration into whose territory a good is imported determines that a certification of origin is illegible, defective on its face, or has not been completed correctly, the importer shall be granted a period of not less than five working days to provide the customs administration with a copy of the corrected certification of origin.\nGone are the days of instant rejection. Now, importers may be able to push the envelope with little to no consequences, as they will be a given an automatic chance to correct their mistakes within 5 working days. This is a major victory given that many NAFTA Certificates are invalid on the face of the document.\nOnly time will tell whether these changes lead to better accuracy in the issuance of certificates of origin, we can certainly hope so, but many of the NAFTA certificates that look facially valid are improperly issued because there has not been a rules of origin analysis. Importers were not previously burdened with this effort, but now more than ever, they will need to gather detailed information to ensure that they can legitimately make a USMCA claim.",

This came as a surprise even though more than half of the world\u2019s population is considered bilingual. Knowing a language other than your native tongue has long been seen as a sign of intelligence.\nBut studies show that it is not really a standard of IQ, but rather, promotes practical benefits to the speaker. So why learn another language?\nGoing to new places can be exciting, and challenging, especially if you can\u2019t communicate. The most practical advantage of knowing how to speak more than one language is being able to communicate with different people from different parts of the world. Not only would it be beneficial, but it can also help you understand the country\u2019s culture and way of life better.\n2. Brain growth\nSchools in Dubai, for instance, offer intensive foreign language classes. This is because learning a new language has proven to be beneficial for brain growth by keeping it active. People who learn a new language has better brain health as compared to those who only know one.\n3. Edge at multitasking\nJuggling two words, two different sentence construction, and two different sounds can subconsciously make the brain work faster. Studies show that people who know how to speak more than one language are said to be better at multitasking and handling changing situations.\nLanguage is more than just learning. It is also memorisation. Constant memorisation and learning can help boost your memory. A better memory means better mental math calculation, reading comprehension and other cognitive skills.\n5. Prevent mental degradation in adults\nPeople who are diagnosed with dementia or Alzheimer\u2019s disease are advised to do activities that can prevent their brains from degrading further. Learning a language can help adults prevent such mental diseases in the first place. Medical studies show that the brain size increases as one absorbs new words and learns a new language.\nLearning another language is not an easy thing. But knowing these perks, and reaping them in the future can make the process enjoyable and definitely worth it.",

        "raw_content": "MLB Trade Rumors: Updated Odds on Where Manny Machado Gets Traded\nJust when we thought the Manny Machado sweepstakes was coming into focus, more teams have jumped into the mix and complicated things. A few days ago, we thought there were seven teams in the running, but now the Yankees and Red Sox seem to have put their hats into the ring. Recent reports indicate the Baltimore Orioles have as many as nine offers for Machado to sift through. With less than three weeks until the trade deadline, let\u2019s take another crack at figuring out where Machado will end up.\nBrewers, 15%\nThere\u2019s no doubt that the Brewers would love to add Machado. They have not been enamored with the offensive production of their middle infield this year. There are also rumors of an offer in place that involves pitching prospect Corbin Burnes, shortstop Orlando Arcia, and outfielder Keon Broxton. If true, that would be a nice haul for Baltimore and could be enough for the Brew Crew to get Machado.\nDodgers, 20%\nThe Dodgers continue to be one of the top favorites to land Machado. He would be purely a rental player with Corey Seager out for the season. By all accounts, the Dodgers are keeping in contact with the Orioles. There\u2019s also no doubt they have the prospects to get Machado if they want.\nDiamondbacks, 10%\nMachado to Arizona would make a lot of sense. The Diamondbacks have a real chance to win the NL West, especially with another big bat in their lineup. However, Arizona doesn\u2019t have a strong farm system, so they could struggle to make the Orioles a strong offer. There is also less chatter connecting the Diamondbacks with Machado than there was a few days ago.\nPhillies, 15%\nThe Phillies aren\u2019t going anywhere as far as the Machado rumor mill is concerned. They want him right now and beyond, as they figure to be serious players when Machado hits the open market this winter. It\u2019s taken Philadelphia a long time to rebuild, so they may not want to put a dent in their farm system for a high-priced rental. That being said, the Phillies should have enough young talent to get a deal done, so they should be considered serious contenders.\nRed Sox, 10%\nThe Red Sox have worked their way into the Machado conversation in the past few days. Third baseman Rafael Devers going on the DL Thursday should only fuel that speculation. Machado has mentioned that he doesn\u2019t want to play third base, which is likely where he would play in Boston. Of course, he doesn\u2019t have much say in where he gets traded. For now, the Red Sox are more on the periphery, but that could change.\nYankees, 20%\nThe Yankees are suddenly major players in the Machado trade talks. The mere mention of the Bronx Bombers having interest in Machado made them favorites to get him. There are reports that the Yankees made a \u201cstrong offer\u201d for Machado, although that offer didn\u2019t include pitching prospect Justus Sheffield of young outfielder Clint Frazier. They may have to include at least one of them in order to make the Orioles bite. Then again, New York\u2019s farm system is awfully strong, so they may be able to put together an enticing offer for Baltimore.\nThe Field, 10%\nThe Braves, Cubs, and Indians all appear to be losing steam in the Machado sweepstakes. However, it\u2019s possible that all three teams have made offers to the Orioles. All three should be considered a long shot at this point. That being said, things are a lot different than they were a week ago. It also doesn\u2019t seem like anything is imminent, so even the long-shot teams can\u2019t be ruled out completely just yet.\nBaltimore Orioles, Clint Frazier, Corbin Burnes, Corey Seager, Justus Sheffield, Keon Broxton, Manny Machado, MLB Trade Rumors, Orlando Arcia",

        "raw_content": "UIS Downstate Illinois Innocence Project receives major grant to use DNA testing in actual cases\nThe University of Illinois Springfield\u2019s Downstate Illinois Innocence Project with the support of the UIS Center for State Policy and Leadership has been awarded a $687,448 grant to clear downstate Illinois innocence cases where DNA testing might decide the outcome. U.S. Senator Dick Durbin helped to facilitate the grant, which is one of the largest in UIS\u2019 history.\nThe United States Department of Justice Bloodsworth Grant, named in honor of Kirk Bloodsworth, the first DNA death penalty exoneration case in the U.S. in 1993, will provide funding for DNA laboratories to conduct testing, investigators to locate evidence and attorneys to represent inmates in filing post-conviction DNA testing motions.\n\u201cIn Illinois, we\u2019ve seen firsthand how innocent people can get their lives back by taking advantage of post-conviction DNA testing to solve old cases and exonerate the wrongly convicted,\u201d Durbin said. \u201cThe Downstate Illinois Innocence Project has worked to ensure fairness and accuracy in the justice system, including directly participating in three exonerations.\u201d\nThe project will initially focus on 30 cases out of over 400 requests it has received. Those 30 cases will be further reviewed to determine if the evidence can be tested or retested for DNA and if the likelihood is that the individual is actually innocent of the crime for which they were convicted.\n\"As of today 261 individuals nationwide have been exonerated using DNA testing. Thirty of those are already from Illinois,\" said Larry Golden of the UIS Downstate Illinois Innocence Project. \"The backlog on requests for testing is huge. We know that DNA is the most important forensic tool to identify or exclude a perpetrator of a crime. This grant will give the project the resources to follow up with investigation and DNA testing of the many requests we have from people who may actually be innocent.\"\nAs part of the grant, the project is collaborating with the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign College of Law and the Southern Illinois University Law School to have students assist in the review of the cases and the filing of motions to have the evidence tested. The Innocence Project is housed in the UIS Center for State Policy and Leadership, which assists in bringing grant money to campus.\n\u201cThis grant epitomizes the good that can be done by linking academic and student opportunities with real world problem solving,\u201d said David Racine, interim executive director of the center. \u201cThe grant will allow even more UIS students to participate in and learn from the project\u2019s important work. We plan to build on the grant to obtain even greater support for the students and faculty of the campus.\u201d\nBloodsworth is scheduled to visit the UIS campus and speak on the topic of wrongful convictions on Tuesday, November 30, 2010 from 6:30 to 8 p.m. in Brookens Auditorium, located on the lower level of Brookens Library. The event is free and open to the public.\nLabels: Awards, Innocence Project, public policy, University, Video",

        "title": "A heroine is reborn: Tomb Raider is a triumphant reboot | No Game No Talk",
        "raw_content": "I have not played any of the earlier Tomb Raider games, except for Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light, which is a spin-off game from the main series. I did however, play all three of the Uncharted games, that big elephant in the room which Tomb Raider will unavoidably be compared to. The similarities are obvious: third-person exploration and platforming, searching for lost treasures, and massive cinematic spectacles. Really big ones.\nFortunately, Tomb Raider sets itself apart by being the antithesis to Uncharted\u2019s summer blockbuster feel. The development of Lara\u2019s character and her origin story is what drives the game forward, not the action. In the opening, after being shipwrecked and separated from her crewmates, we see Lara being forced to learn how to kill a deer for meat with a bow and arrow. She huddles close to a campfire, struggling to keep herself warm. It\u2019s a simple, but poignant gaming moment. We symphatise and care about Lara not because the developers make us, but because we want to.\nWe want Lara to survive and succeed, and to avoid the many gruesome deaths in store for her. I won\u2019t spoil them, but they leave a strong impact. Shocking and grisly enough to unsettle us, but also tastefully filtered through the use of clever camera angles and a fade-to-black screen so that they do not feel exploitative.\nWithin the first hour, and after being introduced to Tomb Raider\u2019s obsessive quick-time events, Lara is forced to defend herself against the other ruthless human inhabitants on the island in order to stay alive. Starting with her humble bow, Lara eventually gains access to pistols, shotguns, assault rifles, and grenade launchers. Her melee weapon of choice is her axe tool, which doubles as a makeshift lockpick for opening locked doors and chests. All of these equipment can be upgraded by spending Salvage, the game\u2019s form of currency obtained from exploring places and looting corpses and containers.\nWhile the firearm weapons can be upgraded to improve stats such as accuracy and damage, the bow remains the true star of Tomb Raider. It is always a silent weapon, perfect for stealth kills, and you can intentionally fire your shots into nearby walls to distract enemies. By the endgame, your bow is able to penetrate multiple targets, shoot fire arrows and grenade-tipped arrows, and launch rope arrows (either at an enemy or over a chasm to be crossed). The slowly evolving nature of the bow mirrors Lara\u2019s own character development, as she transforms from an innocent civilian to a hardened survivor.\nUnfortunately, there is a slight tinge of narrative dissonance in Tomb Raider, because each time Lara gains access to a new gun or weapon upgrade, the action ramps up really quickly. From killing lone stragglers with her bow in the opening, it is not uncommon for her to take on entire platoons of enemies in the later half. We discover through the game\u2019s dialogue that Lara\u2019s missing father was a famous archeologist, and that she learned survival skills from her mentor and shipmate, Roth, which makes sense for the early game\u2019s themes of exploration and survival.\nBut how does an explorer-survivor girl suddenly become an expert, hard-boiled killer overnight? The game does provide a slightly better narrative justification for Lara\u2019s murdering spree than Nathan Drake\u2019s: she kills first for self-defence, and later on, to save her friends after she has discovered the true nature of her aggressors on the island. Still, there are a few unintentionally hilarious and narrative-breaking moments, like when Lara first picks up a grenade launcher, conveniently abandoned on the ground beside her. \u201cOh shit,\u201d goes the baddie\u2019s reaction before he gets blown to bits. \u201cShe\u2019s got a grenade launcher!\u201d, screams another shocked group of bad guys. As if they couldn\u2019t have picked up the grenade launcher themselves (it was just lying on the floor). \u201cYeah, run you bastards!\u201d, replies Lara.\nAt the end of the day though, it is the gameplay mechanics that matter, and Tomb Raider\u2019s combat feels satisfying, entertaining, and better refined compared to its peers. Lara will automatically take cover behind any wall or waist-high obstacle (there is no cover button in the game), a nifty feature that I would like to see implemented in other third-person shooters. There is a dodging mechanic, similar to Alan Wake, where you have to time your dodges to the enemy\u2019s melee attacks precisely, which will leave them wide open for a counterattack. While there are a few battle sequences that feel unnecessarily long, all prolonged fights are always followed by a respite of exploration, which is the biggest strength of Tomb Raider.\nThe game\u2019s locations are divided into individual open-world hubs, and the campaign\u2019s mission objectives are clearly marked out on your map. You can take your sweet time and ignore the main story path, and instead focus on completing the numerous side-challenges and relic hunts, which will earn you extra Salvage and XP for purchasing new upgrades and skills. Lara even has Bruce Wayne\u2019s Detective Vision from Batman: Arkham Asylum, called \u201cSurvival Instincts\u201d in this game. A simple button tap will highlight all nearby items and objects that can be interacted with. The Survival Instinct can be upgraded later to allow Lara to spot items hidden out of her line-of-sight. It\u2019s an essential mechanic that encourages players to explore and figure out solutions to some of the more inaccessible treasure in the game. Most secrets require simple puzzle-solving and manipulation of physics, while others are locked away Metroidvania-style until Lara obtains the necessary equipment to progress.\nThe pay off is always worth it, should you devote your time to exploration. The bonus Salvage and XP is helpful, but more importantly, Lara will actually narrate and describe the importance of each item she discovers. As a person living in Asia who is currently studying the Japanese language, I found her explanations of the game\u2019s Asian artefacts and their cultural significance to be genuinely interesting and educational. The developers have clearly done their homework, and have treated the game\u2019s oriental and historical references with utmost care and respect.\nIt has been more than four years since the release of the last main game in the series, Tomb Raider: Underworld. In that time, two Gears of Wars games were made, two Modern Warfare sequels came out, and two Uncharted games were released. It is very easy to spot the positive influence of those games on Tomb Raider, from GoW\u2019s melee finishers to Modern Warfare\u2019s XP and upgrade system.\nAnd yet, Tomb Raider manages to retain its own unique identity thanks to its female protagonist. Ten years ago, if you asked any gamer to describe Lara Croft\u2019s defining characteristics, the first words that come to mind would probably be \u201cboobs\u201d. After Tomb Raider, gamers will remember Lara Croft as a survivor, someone believable and admirable that we can all relate to. Crystal Dynamics has successfully rebooted and reintroduced the character to a new set of fans, allowing one of gaming\u2019s most iconic heroines to be reborn again.\nEat your heart out, Nathan Drake.\nThe author completed the PC version of the game once on Hard difficulty, taking about 20 hours to finish the main campaign. He did not touch the multiplayer portion. The game is also out for the 360 and PS3. The PC version (requires Steam) retails for a recommended price of S$48.\n\u00ab Previous Story Heart of the Swarm Singapore launch event: photo gallery and recap Next Story \u00bb Neolution.Int booted from The International 3 Eastern Qualifiers\nCamilla Luddington named Lara Croft\u2019s new voice and model\nPingback: A heroine is reborn: Tomb Raider is a triumphant reboot || No Game No Talk | Cruel Ultimatum()",

        "raw_content": "Home / Opinion / No More!\nIt is 2018 and women are still not treated as equals in America. I\u2019m not even talking about equal pay or opportunity, but equal in terms of being afforded the promise of safety and being respected as human beings.\nThe current state of affairs in both local and federal governments is pitiful. At the federal level, what seemed to be a guaranteed confirmation of president Trump\u2019s nominee to the Supreme Court, Brett Kavanaugh, has fortunately hit a snag as a highly educated woman came forward with allegations of sexual misconduct against Kavanaugh.\nBoth Dr. Christine Blasey Ford and Judge Kavanaugh are asked to testify in a public hearing before the Senate\u2019s Judiciary Committee. Dr. Ford has yet to confirm her attendance. One hopes that she will summon the extraordinary courage that will be necessary to relive that moment of assault in front of the committee,but even then, it\u2019s not clear that her testimony will be taken seriously.\nAs details emerge \u2013 Senator Diane Feinstein had knowledge of the allegation but didn\u2019t bring it up as the victim did not want her name \u2018out there\u2019 \u2013 it is safe to say that women like Dr. Blasey Ford and Anita Hill, another sexual abuse victim who came forward when Judge Clarence Thomas was nominated \u2013 and confirmed as a Supreme Court judge \u2014don\u2019t make this stuff up.\nI\u2019m not going out on a limb when I assume that the women closer to home, who came forward to speak out on having been sexually assaulted and having been re-victimized when NPD did not adequately investigate their cases, are also not making this up for the heck of it.\nLet\u2019s look at this rationally. Why would a woman falsely claim to have suffered an assault of the most intimate sort when the consequences more likely than not are anything but positive? As proven on local and federal levels, it\u2019s the victim who gets raked over the coals, whose name gets smeared, whose credibility is questioned and who is in the spotlight for reasons not of their own making. Unfortunately, sexual assaults, especially those that happened a long time ago, are hard to prove. This is exactly why the perpetrators get away with it.\nThey count on the victim remaining quiet. They count on women being ashamed. They count on the fact that society \u2013 if in doubt \u2014believes that women either lie, or misunderstood and exaggerate what happened to them. They count on the sad fact that telling lies works. We see the brazen untruths told by the suspect held in connection with the death of young Ashley Johnson-Barr. He lied to the FBI about her cell phone, about not knowing her and about not having been four-wheeling on the day in question. The parents of Ashley have to bury their 10-year-old girl. While we do not know all the facts in the case, it is the worst nightmare of a mom or dad. This horribly crime must jolt us into action to not condone any more lies, deceptions or disrespect for human life or dignity.\nPeople lie. Presidents lie. Their advisers lie.\nOur society not only tolerates but allows the unacceptable behavior of our own president, who, on tape, talked about grabbing women by their private parts and submitting them to his will. The president\u2019s behavior and propensity to lie sends a signal to humankind that we have sunken to a new low level in the history of western civilization. The majority seems to be ok with that and that is a real shame.\nBy condoning that behavior in our leaders, we all are guilty of standing by and allowing violence and sexual assaults.\nBy allowing violent and alcohol-infused behavior in our families, we are guilty, too.\nAnd what\u2019s worse, we allow this to be perpetuated as our kids learn from examples set by adults. They are destined to continue the cycle of abuse, masking the pain with alcohol or drugs, begetting more abuse, shame and alcohol problems. When will it stop?\u2014D.H.\u2014",

Chocolate hearts and other sweet delights are everywhere the week after Christmas\u2026it\u2019s a major conspiracy against\u2026well, against all of us who make that same resolution every year.\nWho can resist buying those Hershey kisses all decked out in shiny shades of pink and red with little hearts all over them? Perfect size for the purse to munch on when you need a chocolate fix, right? Especially when they are on sale for oh, say three bags for $6.00? It\u2019s the beginning of the end for me, I tell you\u2026the end of keeping that resolution this year.\nI did some research about Valentine\u2019s Day. Some of you may know this, but for the benefit of the one or two other people who actually read this blog and maybe don\u2019t know, I\u2019ll share some info about it with you.\nThis from the History Channel: (http://www.history.com/topics/valentines-day)\nOkay, so I ask you this: why is a day supposedly about love and romance named after someone who, according to all accounts, was killed/martyred/put to death in a horrible manner?\nYou would think that since Valentine\u2019s Day is considered to be the day for being mushy with your significant other (I wonder how many people get engaged or married on Valentine\u2019s Day?) why name it after someone who was put to death?\nSince it\u2019s named after a saint (\u201cSaint Valentine\u2019s Day\u201d) why not have a second Christmas and call it \u201cSaint Nicholas Day II?\u201d\nWhat\u2019s not to love about St. Nick/Santa? it\u2019s only a few weeks after the jolly old guy visits and as far as I know he\u2019s never been so much as attacked no less martyred.\nHe wears red; red is the color du jour of Valentine\u2019s Day. He brings gifts, even puts candy in stockings. Candy is one of the preferred gifts for St. V\u2019s. People get engaged at Christmas. It\u2019s a happy time. You wouldn\u2019t really even have to change the in-store decorations. Well, maybe lose a little of the green and focus more on the red\u2026but that\u2019s easy enough to do. Put out more gift bags with candy canes and hearts\u2026suitable for either holiday, right? Think of the marketing opportunities there would be! \u201cCelebrate Christmas and be ready for St. Nicholas Day II\u201d\u2026however, I don\u2019t know how that would work with the day after Christmas half price sales. There\u2019d have to be a separate aisle with no discounts for the candy cane/heart bags.\n\u2026and I spend entirely too much time thinking about these things\u2026especially since this ain\u2019t never happening.\nBut I do hope that you all had a special whatever-you-want-to-call-it February 14th.\nThis entry was posted in Personal Thoughts and tagged Active Lifestyle, Baby Boomers, Boomers, chocolate, Christmas, Christmas decorating, Computers for Seniors, Elderly, fun as seniors, grandchildren, Hershey kisses, history of St. Valentine, kisses, Memories, OC, Orange County Senior Citizens, Orange County Seniors, romance, Saint Nicholas, Santa Claus, Senior Active LIfestyle, Senior Activities, Senior Centers, Senior Citizens, Senior Fun, Senior Travel, Seniors, St. Nicholas, St. Nick, St. Valentine's Day, Valentine's Day, Valentines, weight loss.

        "raw_content": "Home > A & E\nFred Rogers gets Presidential Medal of Freedom\nBy Ann McFeatters, Post-Gazette National Bureau\nWASHINGTON -- President Bush yesterday presented children's TV icon Fred Rogers with the Presidential Medal of Freedom at a White House ceremony.\nPresident George W. Bush presents the Presidential Medal of Freedom to Fred Rogers yesterday in a ceremony in the East Room of the White House. (Kenneth Lambert, Associated Press)\n\"Fred Rogers has proven that television can soothe the soul and nurture the spirit and teach the very young,\" Bush said. \"'The whole idea,' says the beloved host of Mister Rogers' Neighborhood, 'is to look at the television camera and present as much love as you possibly could to a person who needs it.' This message of unconditional love has won Fred Rogers a very special place in the heart of a lot of moms and dads all across America.\"\nThe Medal of Freedom, created in 1963 by then-President John F. Kennedy, is the nation's highest civilian honor. It recognizes individuals who have made \"an especially meritorious contribution to the security or national interests of the United States or to world peace or to cultural or other significant public or private endeavors.\"\nEleven other leaders in arts, sports, entertainment, politics and journalism were also medal recipients at yesterday's White House ceremony.\nRogers no longer produces his long-running TV show but has remained active publishing books and songs for children. A playground based on his Neighborhood of Make-Believe opened earlier this year at Monroeville Mall, and he has helped lead a children's literacy campaign for the White House.\n\"It is impossible to count the number of lives you have touched,\" Bush told Rogers, \"but you've made a huge impact on thousands and thousands of children. And there are thousands and thousands of parents and Americans who are grateful for your service to the country.\"\nBill Cosby brought a little humor into the president's presentations. Although Cosby made no remarks, he played class clown in the White House East Room, a hall that has been the setting of many a stuffy ceremony.\nCosby shot a mock dirty look to the uniformed soldier who escorted him to the stage. He studied baseball great Hank Aaron's medal, and, feigning distraction, shouted \"Present!\" when his turn came to receive the award. The comedian pretended Bush had goosed him as they stood together.\nBush took the jesting in stride, but appeared exasperated when he was unable to fasten the medal around Cosby's neck.\n\"Bill Cosby is a gifted comedian who has used the power of laughter to heal wounds and to build bridges,\" Bush said. \"By focusing on our common humanity, Bill Cosby is helping to create a truly united America.\"\nAaron, baseball's career home run king, \"overcame poverty and racism to become one of the most accomplished baseball players of all time,\" the president said.\n\"By suffering and sweating himself, Placido Domingo is making sure that the great music of the past will continue to delight opera lovers the world over,\" Bush said, before handing the award to Domingo's sons.\nAnother winner was former New York Times editor and columnist A.M. Rosenthal, who won a 1960 Pulitzer Prize for reporting from Poland. Rosenthal last month said the award was the biggest surprise of his life, and hoped that \"one of these days they will tell me why they're giving it to me.\"\nBush answered the question: \"A.M. Rosenthal's outspoken defense of persecuted Christians in Asia, Africa and the Middle East have truly made him his brother's keeper.\"\nBush called the late Washington Post publisher Katherine Graham a \"forceful, courageous and deeply principled newspaper publisher.\"\nHe recalled that another honoree, Nobel Peace Prize winner Nelson Mandela, once told a prison warden who threatened to kill him, \"'If you so much as lay a hand on me, I will take you to the highest court in the land, and when I finish with you, you'll be as poor as a church mouse.'\n\"The warden backed off and so, eventually, did other, more powerful representatives of apartheid, all of whom were humbled by Mandela's immense moral authority,\" Bush said. \"It is this moral stature that has made Nelson Mandela perhaps the most revered statesman of our time.\"\nMandela's daughter, Makaziwe, collected the award for him.\nThe other award recipients yesterday were:\nNancy Reagan, the former first lady, for her continuing work against drug and alcohol abuse and her promotion of the Foster Grandparent program. Mrs. Reagan said she was happy to return to the White House after almost 10 years.\nDr. D.A. Henderson, best known for his leadership of the World Health Organization's global smallpox eradication campaign from 1966 to 1977. In 1986 he was awarded the National Medal of Science. He is currently director of the Johns Hopkins Center for Civilian Biodefense Studies.\nIntel Corp. co-founder Gordon Moore. Through the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation, Moore is a philanthropic leader in higher education, scientific research, the environment and San Francisco Bay Area projects.\nAuthor, editor and former New York University professor Irving Kristol, whose writings \"helped lay the intellectual groundwork for the renaissance of conservative ideas in the last half of the 20th century ... and became the framework for compassionate conservatism,\" the White House said.\nPeter Drucker, whom the White House called \"the world's foremost pioneer of management theory\" and a champion of concepts such as privatization, management by objective and decentralization.",

        "raw_content": "PERSONAL INJURY ATTORNEY FOR TRUCK ACCIDENTS IN ROCKVILLE, MD\nWhen trying to recover damages as a result of a truck accident, you will almost always be dealing with an insurance company. The goal of the insurance adjuster is to settle cases and save the insurance company as much money as possible. Without a truck accident attorney, the settlement process proceeds completely on the adjuster's terms. This scenario will never yield the best possible result for you. Your attorney's job is to level the playing field. Their main goal is to settle your claim to maximize your compensation. If you have been involved in a truck accident in Maryland, you should contact a truck accident lawyer quickly to ensure that you receive all of the compensation to which you are entitled.\nPersonal injury lawsuits almost always result when someone's negligence towards another person causes bodily injury or harm. In Maryland, in order for you to prevail with your personal injury claim in a truck accident, you must prove that you have been injured by another party's careless or reckless actions or inaction.\nAt Oropeza Law Firm, LLC., we will provide you with a truck accident attorney who will take care of all the interactions between insurance companies so that you can focus on healing and recovery. While you and/or your loved ones recover from your accident, Oropeza Law Firm will be your advocate and represent your interests to all parties involved so that you receive the compensation you deserve for your sufferings - bodily injuries, property damage, lost wages, and pains and sufferings.\nAt the scene of the accident: Gather as much information as possible about the truck accident - photographs of the scene and injuries and damaged property, location, time, parties involved (including names, license plates, insurance information, contact information), nature/cause of the accident, witnesses present, police officers at the scene.\nAfter the accident: If you or anyone in the vehicle suffer injuries of any kind as a result of your accident, seek any/all medical attention necessary. It is important for you to get checked out even if you don't immediately notice an injury, as symptoms do not always present right away. Our highest priority as your truck accident attorney is that you and anyone else in the vehicle receive appropriate medical treatment and recover from injuries related to this accident.\nDue to the Statute of Limitations in Maryland (see below), it is important to contact a personal injury lawyer or truck accident lawyer as soon as possible so that your claim can be filed.\nAn important note related to truck accidents in Maryland is that a claim must be filed within three years of the date of the truck accident in order for compensation to be sought and received. If your claim is not filed in time, you will not be able to receive compensation for any damages from the accident, whether they be bodily injuries, property damages, or other pains and sufferings. For this reason, it is important to contact a personal injury attorney or truck accident attorney who will be able to represent your interests during this difficult time so that you can move past this incident as quickly as possible and receive the compensation that you deserve.",

Education is one of the priority areas for Tonga under the New Zealand Aid Programme and we are very pleased to be able to respond to the Tongan Government\u2019s request for assistance,\u201d says Mr Key.\nIn January of this year, Cyclone Ian caused extensive damage to infrastructure, public utilities and services, agriculture and housing, as well as severely damaging schools in the Ha\u2019apai island group.\nThe funding will be used to reconstruct classrooms and staff quarters, and replace school equipment across the island group by 2016.\n\u201cNew Zealand enjoys a strong relationship with Tonga and the two countries are important regional partners,\u201d says Mr Key.\n\u201cThere is a significant Tongan population living in New Zealand, so it\u2019s important that we are able to help Tonga in times of need.\u201d\nMr Key made the announcement while visiting Government Primary School in Nuku\u2019alofa today. While in Tonga, Mr Key also met with Tongan Prime Minister Tuivakan\u014d and had high level discussions with Tongan members of cabinet.\nMr Key is visiting Tonga as part of the 2014 Pacific Mission.

        "raw_content": "Payment protection insurance complaints still rising\nPayment protection insurance complaints still rising ; Complaints about payment protection insurance (PPI) have increased further and now make up half the workload of the Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS). The FOS received 24,955 PPI complaints in the last three months of 2010.\nThat was 50% of the total number of complaints the FOS had received and nearly twice the number lodged with it six months earlier. PPI is supposed to help people repay loans if they fall ill, have an accident or lose their job.\nWidespread criticism of the mis-selling of PPI, campaigns by consumer groups and restrictions by regulators have, in the past two years, led to a sharp increase in the number of people complaining that they have been mis-sold the insurance.\nThe FOS, along with the Financial Services Authority (FSA), is waiting for the outcome of a judicial review heard in the High Court in January.\nThe British Bankers' Association (BBA) has challenged their authority to impose new rules on the handling of PPI complaints.\nThe rules would force the banks to reopen nearly three million past complaints, possibly costing them \u00a32.7bn in extra compensation.\nFewer successes?\nFor the whole of the financial year 2009-10 the FOS received just over 49,000 PPI complaints, which amounted to 30% of the total complaints it handled that year.\nThe public's appetite for lodging such complaints shows no sign of diminishing.\nSo far, in the first nine months of 2010-11, the FOS has received just under 60,000 PPI complaints, more than in the whole of the previous financial year. The Ombudsman service had previously complained that the UK's banks appeared to have a policy of fobbing off PPI complainants in the hope that they would simply go away.\nIn 2009-10 it upheld 89% of the PPI complaints that came its way. Since then, however, the apparent success rate for PPI complaints has been falling steadily, with just two-thirds upheld in the last quarter of 2010.\nHowever, the FOS said this did not mean that the banks were improving their ability to deal with the complaints properly in the first place. A FOS spokesman explained that some banks were now choosing to appeal against an initial ruling against them.\nThis, he said, was artificially depressing the success rate of complainants as their cases awaited a final adjudication at the second stage of the Ombudsman's procedure.",

White lead, oil-based house paint, wax crayon, and lead pencil on canvas, 54\" x 75.\"\nCy Twombly died this past July, and he belonged to a somewhat special category of 20th-century painters that I've been thinking about quite a bit of late: painters who used the language of abstraction, but were not making Modernist paintings.\nTaken as a group, they're styles were all over the map, but the common thread (at least in my mind) were refusals, either conscious or unconscious, to abide by one or more of the dogmatic aspects of Modernisn: purity, flatness, pictorial autonomy, utter abstraction, and so on. Feeling weighted down by these things doesn't seem like much of an issue today, but after Cubism and throughout much of the twentieth century, you were risking permanent obscurity with such an approach. Many artists who reached the end of their rope with Kantian purity either dropped abstraction, like Guston, or more commonly dropped painting altogether - many of the early minimalists, and video and performance artists started off as painters.\nIn Twombly, the language of Ab Ex is still plainly visible, but it's clear even on the most cursory examination that it's not Ab Ex - the calligraphic loops punctuated by bits of actual writing and bathroom graffiti, the strong reference to children's art, the chalkboards, the later flowers, and so on. It's a language not based on rejection of existing norms, but on the personalization of those norms.\nNot surprisingly, many of the artists I'm thinking about either didn't live in New York, or, like Twombly, chose not to. In terms of advanced art in the middle of the twentieth Century, Italy (where Twombly spent much of his adult life) was tantamount to Gilligan's Island. But away from the chatter of the New York art community, he was able to develop this highly personal approach.\nMy roster and thesis for this special list of painters is still a developing entity, but rather that prepare a lengthy essay, I think I'm going to flesh it out a little at a time in the P.IL. series - check back for more.",

Since there are so little differences between the two, except things like color and water resistance, I will be able to include both cameras in one e-book.\nI believe Pentax will sell a lot of these entry-level DSLRs because they are introduced at a very low price. As usual, a little while after introductions, the prices of both cameras will go down.\nThese two cameras will produce images nearly as good as the more expensive K-5 series. That said, I envision that Pentax will be releasing a new flagship camera very soon, that will surpass the K-5 series.

        "raw_content": "For thousands of years humans have been reinventing their image with various headdresses, wigs, hair extensions and hats, for a multitude of purposes. Preserved wigs reflect the fashion and cultural expressions of societies, and reveal the everday lives of the ancients.\nAncient Egyptian Wigs\nThe most ancient of wigs and hairpieces dating back to early recorded history were made and worn by the Ancient Egyptians. Wigs were worn for a variety of reasons, but were a mainstay and essential part of a wardrobe\u2014especially for the elite of society\u2014as wearing a wig indicated high status.\nIt is often said the heat of the region caused people to shave their heads and faces in Ancient Egypt, and they then wore wigs to protect their heads from the sun while remaining cool. However, styles varied and heads were only sometimes shaved, whereas other times short hair was worn underneath wigs or false hair extensions. As such, wigs weren\u2019t solely a protective headcover. They played a significant role as fashion statements and served as social signifiers.\nColossal bust of Queen Ahmes-Merytamun (Ahmose-Meritamon), wearing a Hathor-wig. 18th dynasty, circa 1550 BC. (CC BY-SA 3.0)\nThe trappings of hair had social and religions connotations in Ancient Egypt. In the early dynasties natural beards were favored, but eventually the fashion changed to a clean-shaven look, and mustaches were uncommon.\nA shaved head was a sure sign of nobility, and the majority of Ancient Egyptians kept their heads covered. Head shaving later spread to the rest of the population as customs of higher society trickled down. In fact, having a hairy, unshaven face became a mark of low social status (unless one was in mourning, or was about to travel abroad).\nAncient Egyptian men were generally clean shaven, and a shaven head was a sure sign of nobility. Rahotep a Third Dynasty official, was believed to be in the minority with his moustache. (Public Domain)\nThe nobility shaved their heads and faces, and wigs were worn. For special occasions wigs were combined with elaborate headdresses. So tied to royalty and elite status was this practice, that Egyptian law forbade servants and slaves from shaving their heads or wearing wigs.\nThe Making of a Wig\nWigs and hairpieces were worn by both men and women in Ancient Egypt. For those of middling status, and who wished to retain their natural hair, wigs or extensions were held in place with sticky beeswax and resins.\nWigs and hairpieces were made of various natural materials, such as human hair, animal hair, flax or palm fibers, wools, and more. These strands were often braided or rolled into cords, and then attached to a netting skullcap. The wig \u2018hair\u2019 was stiff and full, and while often black, they could be dyed various colors using henna, a flowering plant used as a dye for 6,000 years, and other pigments.\nQueen Nefertiti (1370 \u2013 1330 BC) was known for wearing iconic, dark blue wigs, and some of her hairpieces were said to be coated in a thin gilding of shimmering gold\u2014the richest of fashion statements.\nThe famous bust of Nefertiti with blue headdress.

Notably, the securing post at head apex, allows for different hairstyles to adorn the bust. (CC BY-SA 3.0)\nFalse Beards \u2013 Not Just for Men\nMen were generally clean shaven in the hot climate, but the beard was still an important symbol of maturity and power.\nRazors were made from copper and bronze in the Middle and New Kingdoms. These softer metals were not known for having a sharp edge and therefore it\u2019s believed shaving must have been a bit of an ordeal. Iron razors only came into use in the Late Dynastic Period. Very often barbers (the first in the world) would visit the homes of aristocrats, and offered services to commoners in public houses.\nWhile facial hair was considered lowly and was removed, the beard was still considered to be an attribute of the gods. Remarkably, men shaved off their beards and then donned artificial beards. This was a symbol of status, but no one wore a false beard longer or more robust than the Pharaoh. The Pharaoh, believed to be as a living god, would shave clean and wear a false beard tied on with a cord.\nIndeed, false hair was seen as such an emblem of prominence that Queen Hatshepsut, a female Pharaoh who ruled for 22 years, took to wearing a fake beard as well.\nHead of a Sphinx of Hatshepsut, Eighteenth dynasty of Egypt, c. 1503-1482 BC. Patches of blue paint on the false beard are still visible, as are traces of yellow and blue on the nemes royal headdress. (Postdlf / CC BY-SA 3.0)\nThe shape and sizes of these goat-hair false beards varied by Pharaoh. They could be thick and short, wider at the bottom. They could be long and narrow, braided all the way down and curved at the end, like the one presented on Tutanhkamun\u2019s gold mask.\nTutankhamun\u2019s mask with beard and headdress represented. (CC BY-SA 3.0)\nInfluential Egyptian Style\nWealthy women used elaborately carved combs, and hairpins, and sometimes decorated hair and wigs with flowers or linen ribbons. Ancient mummies and burials have revealed various items to style or secure hair and hairpieces, such as diadems (a headband-like crown) fashioned of gold, and featuring beads and semi-precious stones.\nPiece representing an 19th Dynasty Egyptian wig with diadem. (Public Domain)\nWigs and artificial extensions were costly, and quality reflected status. The more realistic the hair appeared, the more valuable the piece was. Due to the expense, wigs were meticulously cared for using vegetable oils or animal fats. To ensure longevity, these items were also handled with care, and stored in special boxes or chests. Such boxes have been recovered in ancient tombs, as they were buried with their owners to make the final trip into the afterlife.\nIn 2014 archaeologists found a number of human remains at Tell el-Amarna in Egypt, sporting elaborate and well-preserved hairstyles, including a woman who had more than 70 false hair extensions. Dyed red with henna, the extensions were attached to her head in various layers and heights around her head. Her complex hairstyle was typical of wigs and extensions used in everyday life, now a very rare find in ancient burials.\nBraided hair prepared or wig making. (CC BY 2.0)\nOther hairpieces revealed from the remains in Egypt included a woman who had extensions made of human hair of varying colors, suggesting to archaeologists they came from multiple people.\nThe iconic Nubian wig was worn in what was thought as an imitation of the ideally thick and luxurious hairstyles of the regional Nubian people (modern Sudan). The wig style, popular during the reign of Pharaoh Akhenaten and most associated with one of his wives, Kiya, in many ways resembles the modern \u2018Afro\u2019 hairstyle, and was made of a layer upon layer of tightly wound braids.\nClose-up of an Egyptian alabaster canopic jar depicting a likeness of Amarna-era Queen Kiya wearing a Nubian wig. (CC BY-SA 2.5)\nThese iconic wig styles are now seen as symbols in themselves of ancient Egyptian culture.\nHowever, from 305 BC to 30 BC, the Macedonian Greek Ptolemaic dynasty ruled in Egypt, and hairstyles changed. People wore fewer wigs and shifted away from the Egyptian styles of big, heavy, braided hairpieces, into a blend of Greek and Egyptian features, and natural hair was worn increasingly.\nGreek and Roman Wigs \u2013 For Art and Style\nGreek philosopher and scientist Aristotle (Oecon. 4.14), suggested that wigs were introduced from Persia, and were in use in Asia Minor (present day Turkey).\nWigs were used in ancient Greek theater. Historical texts point to the hair color and style matching the archetypal characters. Black hair and beard represented a tyrant; Fair colored curls suggested a youthful hero; Red hair symbolically indicated a dishonest slave in comedy.\nMosaic, shown Gargoyles in form of Theatrical masks of Tragedy and Comedy. Roman artwork, 2nd century CE. (Public Domain)\nThere remains some debate on whether the elaborately braided (and sometimes towering) hairstyles of ancient Rome and Greece were natural hair styles, intricately sewn in place with needle or thread, or were indeed wigs, but it is believed that blonde wigs came into favor in ancient Rome, originating from Nordic slaves. It is said that Roman prostitutes were carefully restricted and organized, taxed, and law-bound to wear blonde wigs to indicate status. Eventually, these lighter shades of hair became fashionable in higher Roman womens\u2019 circles, seen as racy and provocative, and as such elaborate, multicolored wigs became the height of fashion, and blonde hair seemed to become the desired hair color for the Greeks.\nArchaeologist Elizabeth Barman writes in \u201cHair and the Artifice of Roman Female Adornment\u201d:\n\u201cAmple literary sources document women's (as well as men's) use of wigs and hairpieces, and the extensive vocabulary they employ suggests a wide range of options. Capillamentum, corymbium, galerum and \u03c4\u03c1\u03af\u03c7\u03c9\u03bc\u03b1 are favorite, but by no means the only, terms attested.\nMost wigs in antiquity were made of human hair and fashioned with a level of beauty and craftsmanship largely unobtainable today. (In modern times synthetic hair has replaced natural human hair in all but the most expensive wigs.) Although no Roman wigs have survived, evidence from pharaonic Egypt attests to the high quality of ancient hairpieces.\nThe blond hair of Germans and jet black of Indians was preferred for artificial attachments, but it is unclear whether their desirability stemmed from their color or texture. While black Indian hair, documented in a late source, was no doubt obtained through trade, the blond hair of Germans was one of the spoils of war, at least in the early Imperial period. Both Ovid and Martial refer to \u2018captured\u2019 hair (captivos crines), making an explicit link between the commodification of hair and Roman power.\u201d\nBoth men and women wore wigs to hide illness or undesirable balding, as disguise, for fashion or as social signifier. Statuary now showcases the myriad examples of hairstyle and wigs worn by ancient Greeks and Romans.\nPortrait of a woman of the Flavian period, marble. The portrait bust of a young woman (Julia, daughter of Titus?). Marble. 80s\u201490s AD. Shows ultra-elaborate hair styles worn by upper-class Roman women of the time. (CC BY-SA 3.0)\nNot everyone was on board with wigs and hairpieces. The ancient Christian church forbade the wearing of any artificial hair in 672 AD, but as we can see with their continued popularity today, that sanction did not slow down the use of wigs.\nAsian Wigs Reserved for Professions\nWigs are repeatedly mentioned in the ancient \u201cBook of Songs\u201d, the oldest existing collection of Chinese poetry, but were rarely used in everyday life.\nTo show they were unmarried, young Chinese women would wear their natural hair down, a sign of health and beauty. It was very seldom cut or covered, as Confucian values held that hair was a parental gift to be preserved with utmost respect. Married women wore their hair up more frequently, but people of ancient civilizations of the far east reserved wigs and artificial hair for male actors performing traditional theaters, such as Noh or Kabuki, and for female entertainers or artists such as the Korean Kisaeng or Japanese geisha.\nGeisha/geiko Kimiha in a nihongami wig and a somber black kimono. (CC BY-SA 3.0)\nCeremonial Headdresses and Wigs for the Dead\nWigs have been found in archaeological and burial sites throughout cultures, showing that people intended to look as good in the afterlife as they did in the living realms.\nLong, heavy wigs were worn in the ancient South American Wari culture from the south coast of Peru, although they\u2019re often categorized as headdresses rather than hair extensions. These were made of cotton, alpaca wool, human hair, and plant fiber.\nWig/Ceremonial Headdress of the Wari People, 600-1000 C.E (Brooklyn Museum / CC BY)\nHuman hair was used to fashion the thin, long braids which hung from a cap made of wool or plant material. The ends of the braids were decorated with wool strips dyed in various colors, including blue, red, white and yellow or gold.\nWig headdresses have been found with ancient preserved Wari mummies. Headpieces are typically found with mummies that are believed to have been elite Wari state representatives. After the body was prepared for burial in a bundle, a false head representing the deceased was added, and a wig was placed atop it.\nMuseum installation featuring Chinchorro mummy exhibit, south coast of Peru or north coast of Chile, 5000-2000 BC. (Public Domain)\nEuropean Style \u2013 Bigger and Bolder is Better\nWhen Rome fell so too did wigs. It was not until a thousand years later that wigs or artificial hairpieces came back into use in Europe. During the 16th and 17th centuries, unhygienic conditions and head lice were dealt with by shaving off natural hair and replacing it with a wig which could be de-loused more easily.\nEngland\u2019s Queen Elizabeth I\u2019s (1158-1603) red wig became a signature of sorts. It was a brilliant hue, tightly curled in a \"Roman\" style. She is said to have had a collection of more than 80 wigs to not only make a strong impression, but to cover thinning hair as she aged. The symbol was of such importance that when Elizabeth died, a traditional effigy was placed atop her coffin for the funeral procession, and it wore one of her wigs.\nQueen Elizabeth I with signature red wig and headdress. The \"Rainbow Portrait\", c. 1600. (Public Domain)\nHowever, we probably would not be wearing wigs today if it were not for King Louis XIII of France.\nIn the early 17th century, men\u2019s wigs became fashionable, but only after King Louis (1601 - 1643) started losing his hair prematurely during his early 20\u2019s. To cover his embarassment, he took to wearing wigs. In support, as well as to mimic the power of a monarch, or simply to demonstrate high fashion sense, French nobility began wearing similar wigs, whether they were balding or not. Soon, it became a social signifier, and men, if they wanted to move upwards in society, had to wear one.\nDetail; Men\u2019s wigs of the 17th century. (Public Domain)\nMen\u2019s wigs were long and richly styled, sometimes with bows and braids. Some came to shoulder length and were parted in the middle, with bangs or fringe. They could be curled or crimped. Later, the style was to have thick curls at the forehead, while the sides were arranged in horizontal rows along the sides of the face. These outrageous styles of wigs (perukes or periwigs) spread to the rest of Europe, and the trend to go bigger and bolder resulted. It became obvious that the higher your social status, the more extravagant the wig, hence the expression \u201cbigwig\u201d\u2014now indicating an important person.\nIllustration, Five Orders of Periwigs, 1761. (Public Domain)\nWomen wore elaborate extensions on their natural hair, sometimes dyed into pastel colors such as pink, purple or blue, featuring intricate or fanciful hairpieces and ornaments.\nDetail; Portrait of Marie-Antoinette of Austria wearing the distinctive pouf style: her own natural hair is extended on the top with an artificial hairpiece with feathers, ribbon and jewelry. 1775. (Public Domain)\nAn entire culture evolved around European wigs and wig care. Special rooms were designated as \u2018powder rooms\u2019 (we still use the term today). In these wig closets or powder closets, wigs were thoroughly dusted with orris-root powder, starch, or cyprus powder to remove the smell (and sometimes the presence) of vermin. Bear grease was used by the less well-off, and the richer men and women used Pomatum, which was a scented cement typically composed of mutton suet and lard. As fatty pastes were used to secure the wigs, mice or rats were attracted to the hairpieces, and could sometimes be found burrowed inside. British sailors were said to use tar to secure their false hair.\nTo powder the wig, a special, protective dressing gown was worn over the clothing, and the wig (and wig wearer) would be thoroughly dusted.\nIn certain countries judges or lawyers/barristers still today wear these ceremonial false wigs as part of the official dress.\nLegal wigs today - wigs as court dress. (CC BY-SA 3.0)\nIn the modern age we continue to wear wigs for many purposes in a vast myriad of styles, continuing a very ancient tradition of cultural, aesthetic and societal expression.\nFeatured image: Deriv; Egyptian couple wearing formal wigs of the 4th of 5th dynasties (CC BY-SA 3.0) and Bust of a Roman woman wearing a \"diadem\" wig, circa 80 CE.

        "raw_content": "By Jezreel Llanera | March 25, 2016 | Amazing Pinoy\nAfter shopping some \u201cpasalubong\u201d in Pratunam for my relatives, my two friends and I had the pleasure of meeting the man who has opened the doors of cross border and transnational education for Filipinos and other expatriates in the Kingdom of Thailand. It was past eight in the evening when we went to St Roberts office to inquire about the company\u2019s masters program, but the eleventh hour appointment gave us the rare glimpse of the exuberant and visionary boss of St. Roberts Group of Companies.\nDr. Robert Galindez, Chief Executive Officer of St. Roberts Group of Companies, was a fixture of success in a country where only a few foreign nationals thrive. He is both a respected educator and a successful businessman. He holds the degree Doctor in Philosophy (PhD) and through his leadership St Roberts has transformed into one of the most sought after educational institutions today a far cry from its humble beginnings eight years ago.\nThe welcoming boss started the conversation right after the short introduction of his sister ma\u2019am Grace who is in-charge of managing the company\u2019s day-to-day operations. He passionately shared his love for education and his dream of helping more Filipinos to get a sense of professional accomplishment. His wife Prof. Mary June and their children John Trevor and Francis Mari were also there.\nFrom one partner university in a far-flung province in the Philippines, St Roberts now has three other partner universities in Manila \u2014 Eulogio \u201cAmang\u201d Rodriguez Institute of Science and Technology (EARIST), Philippine Christian University (PCU) and the newly signed Arellano University (AU) in addition to Ifugao State University (ISU). All these are instrumental in providing quality education for Filipinos abroad while simultaneously supporting their families back home.\nOn May 15, a total of 270 students will graduate. A huge leap from a handful of first batch of graduates they had in 2008. That\u2019s when he vividly recalled his sweet memories in Bangkok and the constant bit-by-bit success of St Roberts. He even ushered me to the framed photos hanging on the wall. Surprisingly, Dr. Robert brilliantly recited the names of the people in the photos and the occasions they were taken.\nBob, as Dr. Galindez is fondly called by his family and friends, happily shared the possibility of having the Minister of Education as guest speaker of this year\u2019s graduation. They are scheduled to meet on Monday.\nHe also enthusiastically shared the company expansion and opening of St Roberts Academy and Bellarmine Global Education in Nonthaburi Province. Aside from offering graduate and undergraduate degrees, he said they will be offering elementary and secondary education this coming school year.\nPerhaps the biggest news of our one hour talk was about the Expanded Tertiary Education Equivalency and Accreditation or ETEEAP. It is a \u201ccomprehensive educational assessment program at the tertiary level that recognizes, accredits and gives equivalencies to knowledge, skills, attitudes and values gained by individuals from relevant work\u201d, according to the Commission on Higher Education (CHED) website.\nDr. Galindez pointed out the importance of ETEEAP as it allows blue collar workers and non professionals to earn a degree in just one year. Filipinos in Thailand who work as nannies, hotel staff and other blue collar jobs will now be allowed to study and get a bachelor\u2019s degree relevant to their line of work or experience. St Roberts will be partnered with Arellano University in offering this new program. It will be launched and explained personally by AU\u2019s Academic Director when she visits the kingdom on April 7-8.\nDespite his huge success, what we experienced yesterday evening was inspiring and indeed very humbling!\nEARIST Ifugao State University Robert Galindez St. Roberts Global Education",

        "raw_content": "The rain started in light spurts when I got off the subway Tuesday night. Fast-gathering clouds leaned down on an glassy towers and old concrete masses alike with bullying persistence. People glanced up nervously at the sky as they scurried along the sidewalks like nervous beetles. I'd just turned on Peter Gabriel's beautiful cover of Elbow's \"Mirrorball\" on my iPod and was wondering if anyone could hear the magnificent genius that was ringing, bell-like, in my ears. The track is taken from his gorgeously poetic album of covers, Scratch My Back, released in February through Virgin Music. The album contains a myriad of thoughtful, sometimes surprising cover versions, including Lou Reed's sigh-worthy \"The Power Of The Heart\" (his proposal to now-wife Laurie Anderson), Paul Simon's \"Boy In The Bubble\", as well as David Bowie's much-loved \"Heroes\". The album is fast becoming a favorite on my iPod. It's a million miles away from the noisy, posturing, abrasive world of modern pop. It's not exactly get-up-and-boogie music, but rather, sit-down-and-shut-up music -and I like that. I wish more of that genre existed.\nFar from being the bleeping, bloopy, busy electro-pop sound Gabriel became known for in the 1980s, Scratch My Back features minimalist production, a quality that immediately caught my attention. It's very dramatic for its lack of instrumentation, and its careful consideration of orchestration in the way of what to put, and where. \"Mirrorball\" is a stand-out for its phenomenal string arrangements from Guy Garvey that, to quote Gabriel himself, \"use all the colours of the orchestra to provide the heart, passion, intensity and groove\" that lay dormant, if vibrantly alive, within the Elbow original. It does sound like Stravinsky -and Eno, and opera, prayer, incantation, invocation, moan and shudder, all at once. Upon first listen, walking through the ever-dampening, rapidly-darkening street in a New York borough, I wanted to weep, laugh, run, and stand still, all at once. Gabriel's knowing, intimate delivery offers a beautiful, world-weary understanding of life and its variance. This begs for a video made in New York, complete with the huge, white flash of light and earth-shaking eruption of thunder that greeted its end the evening I listened to it.\nA dramatic, magical end for a beautiful piece of art. New York was listening in.\nEverything has changed. Indeed.\nPhoto taken from my Flickr photostream.\nGlad to hear your thoughts on the Gabriel album. I love his work but an album of covers is death to me. I dropped Hall and Oates (one of my fave bands ever) because of it. But since you think it's so wonderful, I'll give it a try.\nI LOVE covers albums -they're great tests of an artist's capacity for self-expression in the context of another artist's work, & of looking at old material in new ways.\nYou should also check out Patti Smith's Twelve -a collection of incredible covers. She sings Kurt Cobain, The Doors, even The Rolling Stones! Extraordinary.",

        "raw_content": "Home / Cosmetic / Sclerotherapy & Laser for Leg Veins\nSpider veins are small, discolored blood vessels found on the skin of the face, chest, neck, and legs. They may appear in a sunburst or spider web pattern or as a series of short, unconnected lines. On the legs, they can appear in association with larger varicose veins. They may be sparse and scattered, or multiple and concentrated on several areas of the leg. While spider veins do not usually cause pain or discomfort, some people feel less confident because of them.\nSclerotherapy is the most popular treatment option for spider and varicose veins on the legs. Sclerotherapy involves injecting small doses of a solution directly into the unwanted vein with a very fine needle. The solution irritates the vein, causing it to swell, stick together, and the blood to clot. This essentially seals off the treated vein from other veins. Over a period of weeks, the treated vein turns into scar tissue that is absorbed by the body. Eventually, the scar tissue becomes barely noticeable or invisible.\nSclerotherapy is performed in our office and does not require anesthesia. A treatment session generally lasts 15 to 20 minutes. A number of veins can be treated during one treatment session, and some veins may be injected more than once. Commonly veins require more than one treatment session, and a specific treatment plan is made for every patient.\nSclerotherapy can be safely used on all skin types, but there are potential side effects. Some side effects include:\nStinging or pain at the injection site and muscle cramps\nRed, raised areas at the injection sites\nBrown lines or spots on the skin at the treated sites\nClusters of fine, red blood vessels developing near the injection sites\nSmall, painful ulcers at treatment sites\nTemporary bruises\nInflammation of treated blood vessels\nTo learn more about the benefits of Sclerotherapy, please call our office today to schedule a consultation and find out if this procedure is right for you.",

        "raw_content": "A new partnership with Cintra Construction, through the SH-130 Concession Company, could mean big gains for Lockhart High School students next year.\nLISD Superintendent Dr. Jose Parra announced during the Monday evening meeting of the Lockhart ISD Board of Trustees that the District has won a grant from the construct\nion magnates to improve and expand the high school\u2019s advanced placement programs through a five-year cooperative effort in training, mentoring and investment.\nThe grant, which offers investments up to $101,000 per year, will allow the district to participate in the Advanced Placement Training and Incentives Program, which helps teachers and students to build more productive and comprehensive advanced placement programs. The District\u2019s maximum annual investment, for the first five years of the program, will be $45,000.\nParticipation in the program, which has been on the table for discussion since March, will offer LHS students a greater opportunity for college preparation, with additional training and possibly funding available for advanced placement coursework.\nCintra piloted the cooperative program in 1992, and has worked with several districts over the years, most recently helping the Pflugerville ISD to realize an exponential growth in the success and accessibility of their advanced placement programs.\nThe program will be officially announced and explained during a presentation and ceremony at Lockhart High School at 2 p.m. on Tuesday, May 24.\nIn other news, Assistant Superintendent for Curriculum and Instruction Janie Wright announced that there are only seven seniors in the Class of 2011 that will be unable to walk the stage with their classmates at the end of the month because of failure to master all four elements of their Texas Assessment of Knowledge and Skills (TAKS) tests. When the school year began, she said, 54 students were in danger of not graduating because of TAKS requirements. Over the school year, LHS administration and tutors have focused attention on those students, helping them to improve their performance considerably.\nThe number of students unable to graduate because they have not passed the TAKS Exit-Level test has decreased considerably over the past several years, Wright said, and the staff of Lockhart High continues to adapt their programs and services to help those students to graduate. Even after the school year ends, she said, the students are still tutored and mentored, resulting in nearly 10 students earning late diplomas in the last two years.\nIn preparation for talks about the next two years, the Trustees looked at some hard decisions about the District\u2019s budget, and agreed to work in several program cuts suggested by District CFO Tina Knudsen.\nThe cuts, Knudsen explained to the board, are the first step in mitigating what has become statewide fear over the Legislature\u2019s impending cuts to school finance. However, she noted, the final determination on which cuts should be made, and how deep those cuts should go, are impossible to pin down until the passage of a State budget. She noted it is likely the Legislature will have to convene in a Special Session this summer, and it may still be weeks before the District will know how budget cuts will impact local funding.\nIn preparation for the worst-case scenario, the Board reluctantly, but unanimously, voted to cut the tuition reimbursement program for teachers, to reorganize the catastrophic leave, discretionary leave and teacher attendance bonus program, and to make staffing cuts in the Communities in Schools program. They also voted to reduce the hourly pay for tutors and substitute teachers and to cut the hours for the Kids Club afterschool program site managers.\nIn a related item, the Trustees voted to move forward with a Request for Proposals in an effort to find a partner to sell advertising on the district\u2019s school buses.\nSome trustees expressed concerns about the types of advertising which might be allowed, much of which is dictated by State and Federal law. Additionally, some said they were uncomfortable with allowing STS Transportation Services to have their name on the buses, which are owned by LISD, if they intended to sell advertising to other organizations.\nThe board voted 5-2 to move forward with the RFP, noting they were not committing to selling advertising on the buses, simply asking for proposals to gain more information and see if it is something they really want to do.\nTrustees Timoteo \u201cTim\u201d Juarez, Jr., and Juan Alvarez opposed the measure.\nAs they move forward with the process of redrawing the lines for the four single-member election districts, the Trustees passed a resolution forming a Redistricting Advisory Committee (RAC), who will meet with LISD attorneys to review and sketch potential redistricting plans. The committee will be formed of seven members of the public, each selected by the trustee from their current electoral district, and one district administrator. The group will report their findings and suggestions back to the Trustees, who will have the final say in the redistricting map attorneys submit to the Department of Justice for approval.\nUnder a mandate from Federal guidelines, the District was forced to raise the price for school lunches in the next school year. The prices will be raised at the elementary level to $1.70, and to $1.95 in the secondary schools, beginning in the 2011-2012 school year.\nThe parent of an LHS senior approached the Trustees in what he called an effort to make them aware of a \u201cbullying problem\u201d within the Lady Lion athletic program. He said his daughter, a four-year softball player, had opted to quit the team prior to the final game of the season, because she wanted to \u201cavoid trouble\u201d with other girls on the team. Rumors about such activities have been rife in the community for weeks. However, any disciplinary action taken by LHS is protected by law as confidential, and cannot be shared by administration with other parents or the public at large.\nThey recognized LHS senior Gabby Galvan for her fifth-place finish in the discus in the State Track and Field Meet last week. They also honored junior Nate Moore, who competed at the State level in the 1,600-meter run.\nThe Board recognized District CFO Tina Knudsen for receiving the Excellence in Academic Reporting finance award.\nSeveral members of the Roaring Lion Band qualified at the State Level in the UIL Solo and Ensemble contest. The qualifying members were: Amanda Bryant, Audrey Parra, Sean Michael Monahan, Victoria Minor, Christine Spinks, Megan Adams, Megan Jimenez, Cassandra Huffel and Abigail Ramirez.\nkathibliss@post-reigster.com\nNeeds grow for service groups\nCouncil imposes daytime youth curfew\nJustice Center construction moves forward\nCANDIDATE PROFILE: Deward Cummings Jr.",

        "raw_content": "\u2190 Devolution revisited\nAncient Cosmic Geography \u2013 the actual modern view #2 \u2192\nI\u2019ve been having a long, but mainly cordial, discussion on BioLogos on the old questions about whether Genesis 1 is really, as Peter Enns and, earlier, Paul H Seely maintain, teaching \u201cold science\u201d that is erroneous. Regular readers will know there are too many posts about that on The Hump to list easily. Why it even matters is well-expressed in a long article by Vern Poythress, to which I would add that, simply in principle, true interpretations lead to truer applications for life and so justify themselves. Poythress also has a couple of more detailed articles on specific issues here and here. Good stuff.\nOthers in the discussion have been much heavily influenced by BioLogos articles on the matter by Peter Enns, who is in turn very dependent on the biblical scholar Paul H Seely\u2019s work. However, Seely wrote at the start of the 1990s, and it\u2019s mysterious to me why Enns has totally ignored what has become the definitive work on ANE cosmology, the 1998 400+ page Mesopotamian Cosmic Geography, by Assyriologist Wayne Horowitz, whose \u201cpublished works based on Sumerian and Akkadian texts written in cuneiform, these containing writings which in some way consider the structure of the Cosmos, are considered authoritative.\u201d I\u2019ve drawn on quotes from and allusions to this work in some of my own previous articles here.\nAs mysterious as the failure of BioLogians to engage with this seminal work \u2013 which addresses all the published cuneiform texts relating to the Mesopotamian worldview, the richest, and apart from Egyptian and Hebrew sources, getting on for the only resource for \u201cANE cosmology\u201d \u2013 is the fact that there are virtually no visual representations of Horowitz\u2019s conclusions on the Internet, compared to literally hundreds of the tired old diagrams of a world swimming in a goldfish bowl in a cosmic ocean. That Victorian vaulted cosmos has a life of its own, it appears. The only possible representation I\u2019ve found of the new interpretation is actually an ancient one, which I\u2019ll show below.\nOne reason for this may be the book\u2019s lack of accessibility: Amazon UK\u2018s cheapest used copy is currently \u00a31405.99, though Steve Schaffner at BioLogos found one in the USA at the knockdown price of $350, so you can get one for a friend too. However, I have now managed to find, and read, an online version of the first couple of chapters and part 2, which probably covers most of what is of interest in exploring what assumptions might lie behind the Genesis text. I\u2019ll present some snippets from this in the rest of this piece.\nThe first key point is that, in his Introduction, although he points to the variations within the literature, Horowitz is confident enough to include a summary diagram of the basic scheme which persisted throughout the cuneiform period. Here it is (remembering that it is not the Hebrew view, though may contain parallels to it):\nA View of The Mesopotamian Universe\nHeaven of Anu\nMiddle Heavens\nThe Heaven of Anu is the highest region in the \u201cuniverse\u201d (apart from, in a few texts, an empty space above), in which the highest god Anu dwells. The middle heavens are another divine residence, usually for the second generation of gods, the Igigi, whose chief is Enlil. The sky (literally heaven, Sumerian an, or heavens, Akkadian \u0161am\u0217, which is etymologically related to the Hebrew shemayim) is the abode of stars, clouds, birds and so on \u2013 and the space below it down to the earth either has no name or is considered part of the sky/heavens (compare Absalom, his hair caught in a tree, being described as suspended \u201cbetween heaven and earth\u201d).\nBelow the earth\u2019s surface is the source of fresh waters (and a divine realm in its own right) the apsu, and finally the underworld of the dead with its relevant divinities is the bottom of everything. This forms a scheme of three heavens and three earths, which as in the Hebrew is referred to collectively as \u201cheaven and earth\u201d, or an-ki.\nI conjecture that this scheme might actually be represented in this damaged mural from the royal palace at Mari from c1800BC. Despite claims to the contrary, visual representations of the \u201ccosmos\u201d are almost unknown from Mesopotamia, but this may be one.\nThe seated god in the top row is said to represent Anu, and that in the lower register Enlil. So perhaps the smaller figures in what little remains of the third register are humans labouring under their burdens on earth (with perhaps the apsu and the underworld originally placed below). One reason for suspecting this is that the colours of the borders match those attributed in the texts (according to Horowitz) to the colours of the layers of the heavens and the dwellings of the gods at each level. I present this partly for interest, but partly because, as I said above, pictorial representations of Horowitz\u2019s recent conclusions appear absent from the web so far.\nThe one conspicuous absence from this three-heaven/three-earth scheme, and from the whole book in fact, is the cosmic ocean which is supposed to have been a universal belief in the ANE. This is simply because it does not appear in the literature \u2013 anywhere. The top of heaven is empty space (or \u201cair\u201d in our modern thought), and the bottom of earth is\u2026 earth. There is no boundless deep to keep out above, and no boundless deep beneath the foundations of the earth (even the apsu is omitted from some descriptions).\nNow, despite this Horowitz does use the term \u201ccosmic ocean\u201d, though strictly speaking it is anachronistic, for until the Greeks there was really no concept of a cosmos perceived as a self-contained totality, nor for the same reason should \u201cheaven and earth\u201d really be translated \u201cuniverse\u201d (though it often is). Such words summon up for us too much either the idea of three-dimensional models, or of infinity. But as Horowitz says in closing his Introduction:\n\u2026the available evidence leaves a number of problems completely unsolved. For example, no surviving text presents clear evidence for the bounds of the physical universe or explains what might be found beyond the limits of the universe. Such problems are endemic to this study, since no single surviving ancient Mesopotamian source or set of sources presents a comprehensive view of the physical universe.\nSo much for those allegedly common pictures of the universe in Mesopotamian art, and the ubiquitous modern \u201cANE cosmos\u201d diagrams based on them. \u201cNo surviving text\u201d! Horowitz, however, also uses the term \u201cworld ocean\u201d for this body of water, and this is a better term. His main source for it (which also casts light on other occurrences in the literature, like the role of Tiamat in Enuma elish) is the so-called Babylonian World Map, which I discuss here.\nHorowitz shows that the world ocean is simply the sea surrounding (as was thought) the central landmass of the world. On the world map it is like a ring with an outer bank, but it is probable that its extent was considered indeterminate laterally. Perhaps it extended to the edge of the world, or perhaps it did not. Horowitz considers that the map indicates awareness of other lands across the sea. What is absolutely clear, though, is that nobody thought it extended up above heaven, nor down below earth.\nWorld map of Marcus Vipsanius Agrippa, c. 20 AD\nRather, it is directly comparable to the ocean on both Greek and Roman maps of the world, and to mediaeval mappae mundi, both of which assumed the earth to be spherical, but that there was only one major landmass surrounded by a world ocean, on which one could sail, in theory, anywhere.\nIn my own \u201cGenesis cosmology\u201d I present a similar view of the \u201cdeep\u201d (tehom) as being no more or less than the ordinary ocean, pictured as originally covering the whole earth, but having a surface just like the oceans of today. It fits the text better than the other idea. It is good to read that this is precisely the view that the Babylonians had of things, according to the best scholarship.\nNow one implication of this is that the ancients do not need to be excused for believing that the universe was, for the most part, \u201cwater, water everywhere, nor any drop to drink\u201d, because the evidence is that they did not believe that. But a second implication is this: if the \u201ccosmic ocean\u201d, as conceived by Seely and Enns, is a figment of modern imagination, then there appears never to have been a need for a solid vault called a \u201cfirmament\u201d to keep the ocean out, nor of \u201cfloodgates\u201d set into it it to let the rain in periodically. But we\u2019ll see what Horowitz has to say about that next time.",

        "raw_content": "Practical Physics \u00bb Physical quantities \u00bb Rough and ready measurements\nTo many students, the image of science is one of exactness and perfection. And yet, good scientists make rough estimates again and again, sometimes without ever making a precise measurement. It is important to teach students that rough measurements are respectable.\nOf course, high precision is of the essence in many cases. A modern mass spectrograph must yield measurements of high precision if tiny mass-differences between one atomic nucleus and another are to be interpreted as energy-differences using E = mc2.\nYet when Chadwick measured the nuclear charges of copper, silver and platinum, by alpha scattering in 1920, relatively rough measurements showed Rutherford's atomic model was correct. Chadwick showed that the nuclear charge (in electron units) is just equal to the 'atomic number', the number of the element in the periodic table, a series arranged in order of atomic masses. Those answers were suspected from the general pattern of theory and had to be whole numbers since a complete atom (of nucleus plus outside electrons) is neutral. Much more precise measurements were neither needed, nor at the time, possible. Even before that, the first hint of atomic number measurements came in 1906, from Barkla's attempt to measure the number of electrons in a carbon atom by scattering X-rays. His measurements suggested a number of about 6 electrons per atom, in fact somewhere between 5 and 7, yet this rough estimate enabled the founding of atomic theory to proceed.\nGalileo made the roughest measurements for his test of constant acceleration down an incline. He knew he was right in his simple summary of natural behaviour. He just wanted to convince some people by quoting an experiment.\nRough estimates are not just a misfortune peculiar to early, clumsy experimenters. They are the right thing in some parts of a growing science. Nuclear physicists and some cosmic ray physicists make very precise measurements. In other cases, they seek only a rough estimate to settle an essential point in the progress of their knowledge.\nYou cannot give the above examples to students if they do not know the science. In that case, the following may be some help.\nAn invading army is about to go into a foreign land and the general wants to know the size of the enemy's forces. He learns that it is 18 000. Does it matter much to his plans if it is 19 000 or 15 000? What he wants to know is that it is about 18 000 and not 30 000. If he waits for his staff to carefully sift through reports and add up the guesses and check them and find that the enemy really has 18 473 men, then the general may set out too late to win the battle.\nestimating how many snow ploughs are needed to clear a snowfall in the middle of the night;\nthe Chancellor of the Exchequer makes a clever guess on the number of road vehicle licences which will be paid in the next year;\na rough guess that the Sun is 300 000 times as massive as the Earth suffices to tell astronomers that the Earth is not massive enough to affect the orbit of the planet Venus, significantly.",

        "raw_content": "only about 7 weeks left until my due date and it can't come soon enough. i'm ready to be a mom and meet the little girl that is going to bring oodles of happiness to our lives. i love how little babies can really bring families closer together. i found out last week that my sister laura is probably coming to texas for christmas this year with andrew and ava (mostly because they are planning a vacation). my iowa parents were already discussing a trip to austin between christmas and new year's to celebrate leila's first christmas too. if laura comes down, then i think my parents will come for sure.\nand honestly, this would be a dream come true. i haven't been able to spend christmas (even if it's 2 separate events) with each of my complete immediate families since my parents divorced when i was 3. this would mean that i could spend a day with my mom, stepdad, steph, jarrett, laura, and ashley along with their spouses and kids, then another day with my dad, stepmom, laura and her husband and baby girl. see what i mean? dream come true! the only thing better would be if i could stick my aunts, uncles, and grandparents from iowa in laura's pocket so they could be here too.\ni love everyone in my family so much, and i'm thankful that our precious leila is bringing us all together for the holidays. my dad said he doesn't like to go a month without seeing his grandkids, so i foresee a lot more trips to austin from my parents and maybe an increase in trips to iowa each year. this makes me really happy, i want everyone in our families to be part of leila's life, regardless of the distance. well, almost everyone. there are a couple people we've decided leila doesn't need to know even exist.\nthat's all going on here. just getting excited for leila to arrive and even more excited for all the happiness she's bringing to our families with her arrival. i could go into labor tomorrow and wouldn't mind in the least. i want to be a mommy now!\nRupiper September 5, 2011 at 7:39 AM\nMy pockets would have to be pretty big to fit all those people! ;) Can't wait to see you in October AND in December!!! I'm really excited for our trips. October is booked, but December I'm waiting on because I need to ask my boss a question about my Saturday shift. :) We'll get it done this week though.\nPs - I think you're behind on posting your belly pics on here! You're 34 weeks dude! You need to get 32 AND 34 up here.\nPPS - I can't wait to meet Leila!!!!! She's going to be so cute!! AND I have more clothes for you if you want them. I'm in the process of getting rid of anything below 9 months so I'll sort through and send some of my favorites (that are in good condition) and whatever you don't want you can give to Goodwill or someone else.\nPPPS - Can you email me all the things I said I'd give you again? I want to get it all in a box or something so that when the time comes I can ship it all out at once. Gracias. :)",

        "raw_content": "The Sinking Ship \u2026 The Witch Hunt\nI spent most of the past week on vacation, traveling across the country to scope out a possible new home. I had four flights during that time and each one brought visions to mind of the doomed European flight of a few weeks ago. While I realized that such imaginings were not grounded in reality, I found myself thinking \u201cdoes this pilot suffer from the same problems that the other pilot did? Is this a doomed flight?\u201d Of course, my flights went just fine, but I found myself uncomfortably succumbing to the same paranoia I preach against. At what point do we conduct a witch hunt, looking for those with mental illness that will snap and at what point do we place ourselves into the hands of Chance and realize that probability dictates that we can expect to be safe?\nThe truth is that this is the age of the witch hunt. People with mental illness are able to work jobs that they could not in the past, but at the same time, we find that we are always kept under a watchful eye. Others want to know the extent to which our illnesses affect us. They want to know if we are simply going to underproduce or whether we are unstable time bombs waiting to go off. The stigma is very real, regardless of the extent to which the disorders are controlled and the relative cuddliness (or scariness) of the conditions we may have. I should note that those that do not suffer from mental illness tend to place us all in the same boat: a sinking ship in which everyone is assumed to be dangerous and destructive regardless of actions performed.\nI feel slightly ashamed \u2013 though I lose no sleep \u2013 that I felt such misgivings while traveling these past few days. I suppose that it may be natural to fear the unknown, but it is not enlightened. Yes, we are surrounded by those that could lose their grip on the reasonable and lash out, be they schizophrenics, the depressed, or the antisocial. They could create harm and chaos. However, they are as likely (I would posit, more likely) to act in a manner that is beneficial to all involved. Just as I preach that individual antisocials must be treated as individuals, those that suffer from mental illness should be treated just the same. The conditions they are afflicted with may not be by choice, but they do have choice over how they cope. Society needs to put away the drums of war when it comes to dealing with the mentally ill and acknowledge that it is probable that those with mental illness are doing all that they can to remain on the right side of life and the law. No one can control their thoughts, but everyone can control their actions. I do not expect the healthy to be unafraid, but I do expect them to offer a tepid respect.\nFiled Under: General Tagged With: mental illness, stigma, witch hunt",

For instance, if you have been making extra repayments on your loan and are $10000 in advance with your repayments, with a redraw facility you would be able to take the $10000 (or a portion of it) out of your home loan. Restrictions usually apply (i.e. there may be a minimum amount you are allowed to redraw), and you may be charged a fee for redrawing.\nWhen a mortgage is taken out and some or all of the funds are used to pay off another existing mortgage.

        "raw_content": "\u201cMouths\u201d by Lizz Huerta (3570 words)\nNo Spoilers: Fai is injured in a fall, shattered two of her molars, and in a disaster-ravaged world she\u2019s left leaving her home and heading north to a small settlement called Oasis where there\u2019s a dentist who can heal her. But who she needs to make a deal with in order to fix her teeth. And the piece follows both her and the dentist, as they work together and their fates seem to become entwined. It\u2019s a strange and moving look at a world that has been changed by climate change and chaos, only to find a new normal, full of people just trying to follow their hearts. Where that leads them, though, is often to strange dark places, though it is made lighter by the light people carry with them, through their own loves and hopes and skills.\nKeywords: Post-Disaster, Teeth, Skills, Queer MC, Bargains\nReview: This piece draws a compelling picture of a future where climate change has caused a collapse of most of the civilization we know, and yet things are not really a lawless waste. There are still villages and settlements and plumbers. The organization is different, with those with skills rising to the top of the hierarchy. Which includes dentists, who become healers, and baristas, who become whatever they can. Fai is a woman without a whole lot of skills, working a dangerous job because it needs to be done and because she wants to stay with her lover, Flaquis, who was away she Fai was injured. And the piece explores the strange kind of relationship that grows between Fai and the dentist. Not a romantic one for Fai, and not exactly a romantic one for him either, though his feelings about that are a bit muddled. She tries to learn as much as she can for her in order to give herself freedom, where he wants to find a way to tie her to him. Not realizing that the way he\u2019s thinking about things is still very much trapped in that old world. When he doesn\u2019t need to be bound to that anymore. And it\u2019s a weird but rather moving look at the bargains people make hoping to be happy. And seeing that, even after the \u201cend of civilization,\u201d things aren\u2019t necessarily stagnant. They are progressing now in different ways, pushed by adversity, and it\u2019s interesting to see how these characters work toward a future where they can grow and thrive. Doing more than just waiting to die. Fighting for themselves and each other and for the spirit of moving forward, they push beyond what could be a more idle comfort and to something more fulfilling, if also more dangerous. And it\u2019s just a fun, complex read about skills, and learning, and hope. Go check it out!\n\u201cUnder the Sea of Stars\u201d by Seanan McGuire (5530 words)\nNo Spoilers: Mixing horror with elements of historical sci-fantasy, this story stars Amelia, a woman from a wealthy family whose grandfather made a promise to find the origins of a mysterious woman who he found on the banks of a strange river. The river, and the woman, are mysteries, though as Amelia pierces beneath the surface with a crew of divers in diving suits, she discovers that some mysteries are best left unsolved. And her own personal connection to the river, and what lays under it, come clearer and clearer. The narration is framed as a scientific journal, a found text that details Amelia\u2019s journey, and what she finds. Creepy and playing with the tropes of Victorian scientific exploration and the role of wealthy women in adventuring, the piece is something of a warning of following after the promises made after men who were obviously not the best of people.\nKeywords: Waters, Exploration, Inheritance, Science, Mer-People\nReview: This is a story about scientific discovery plunging into some dark waters and finding something lurking there that might better have been left alone. For Amelia, though, it\u2019s also to do with family. With blood. But maybe not the blood that people might leap to assume. Because, after all, a lot of the horror comes from the way that her mother and grandmother\u2019s blood asserts itself when she is down below the water, in a place that seems darkly magical. Really, though, I think it\u2019s her grandfather\u2019s blood that is much more damning. Because it\u2019s that blood that ties her to the British, Western methods of science, that view living breathing societies as scientific curiosities to be dissected for the sake of knowledge. These are the times when European explorers and adventures went around lawlessly stealing relics and spreading death and fear. And Amelia joins in. Joins in and it\u2019s that legacy that has much more to do with the fate she suffers, which might otherwise be a bit like coming home. She internalized too much of the misogyny and racism and says as much, finding horror as she discovers more about the power that she\u2019s linked to. And for me at least a great deal of the horror is about the way her British adventuring mentality is what dooms not just herself but her companions, who she cares about only as a means to her ends, not exactly taking time to mourn when they drop dead around her. It\u2019s a creepy and vividly rendered story, and a great read!\n\u201cA Love Written on Water\u201d by Ashok K. Banker (12460 words)\nNo Spoilers: This story starts in the divine realms, with a former king named Bhi\u2019ash and a river goddess named Jeel. The two are involved in something of an altercation, one that makes them known to each other but also brings a bit of divine judgement down onto Bhi\u2019ash, who is punished by being sent to the mortal realm to live out a lifetime once more. He goes without argument, something that further interests Jeel, who ends up coming up with a rather complicated plan about how she can approach him in the mortal world. The piece is sweeping and generational, weaving together divine elements and predestination in a way that still seems to leave room for drama and tension and suspense. It\u2019s sensual, focused on the relationship between Jeel and Sha\u2019ant, the reborn Bhi\u2019ash and how their relationship builds and changes.\nKeywords: Gods, Rivers, Marriage, CW- Pregnancy/Loss of a Child, Fate, Bargains\nReview: This story does some interesting things with narrative distance, drawing the reader into a setting full of gods and a heavenly court that still manages some drama. Gods and former-mortals are punished with temporary banishment, leading to plots within plots to try and figure how to fit everything together. Complicated things even more is the idea of fate in the setting, where everything seems to be predestined. Which might seem to take away some of the punsh, but I feel that instead it deepens the experience, because it shows characters both submitting to their fate and trying to fight against it unknown. Fate is something that is reserved for the gods, after all, and so mortals can\u2019t really know what\u2019s in store for them. That the gods can doesn\u2019t mean that they try to break that cycle. If anything, I think a lot of the story is about learning to accept the limitations that the divine put on mortals. Sha\u2019ant is told entering his relationship with Jeel that he\u2019s not allowed to question her, and he\u2019s not allowed to try and stop her doing anything. And for me that wraps up a certain kind of relationship with religion itself, where believers are told not to question it. Not to stand against it. And Sha\u2019ant doesn\u2019t want to, and yet his observations of his wife make him eventually break. And he loses the relationship that he had. But he doesn\u2019t lose his faith. He doesn\u2019t lose Jeel, just the intensely sexual connection with her. And for me it makes room for a kind of religion that accepts the limitations of faith, but that doesn\u2019t just accept everything. That does question, when necessary, as a way of maturing faith. It\u2019s an interesting story, and definitely worth spending some time with.\n\u201cGrandma Novak\u2019s Famous Nut Roll\u201d by Shaenon K. Garrity (2670 words)\nNo Spoilers: Framed as a series of recipes sent out by a woman to her extended family\u2014family recipes passed down by their grandmother, the matriarch of their family and the rock at the heart of the storms that beset them. As the recipes pile up, though, so do the clues pointing to a rather dark secret the family shares. A legacy and a nature that aren\u2019t nearly so innocent as they first appear. Within that darkness, though, there\u2019s also a light, no less heartwarming or affirming for being just a bit bloodstained and darkly magical. It\u2019s a piece that takes the familiar and twists it just so, confronting the reader with a truth and a question about monstrosity and family and food.\nKeywords: Recipes, Cooking, Magic, Hunting, Family, Traditions\nReview: This story does a great job of capturing this rather light, familial voice and then slowly drawing into darker and darker territory. It does really sound like a mass email to family, filled with a sense that they are all on the same page, have survived all the same family gatherings. There\u2019s a bit of an overly enthusiastic edge, too, that always seems to come up in large families, where everyone is very nice but also a little bit competitive and scary. But I think it works so well to contrast this slice of home life and the innocence associated with little old grandmas baking with something so intensely dark, where they are essentially all stepped out of fairy tales, monsters who go out at night to hunt humans. I also like, though, that the family isn\u2019t really portrayed as real monsters. Yes, they hunt the night and kill humans, but there seems to be a justice to it, like how they seem to be aiming for a teacher who seems to be abusing kids. It\u2019s all very subtly built, so it\u2019s something that might almost pass as innocent, except hint after hint is dropped. Hunting, which might have seemed normal at first, becomes decidedly less so. And it\u2019s creepy and it\u2019s fun, still light and a little bubbly but sharp and devilish as well. For me, it seems to hint for the ways that people have to work in secret to protect themselves. How especially women have to form networks to help each other, especially when they are facing violence from men. And how that network is not always tame or meek. Often times there\u2019s a great power there, and there\u2019s something that society as a whole paints as monstrous and horrifying about women seeking justice, that here is still really dark, but is still about family and tradition and fun. So yeah, a wonderful read and a great way to close out Lightspeed\u2019s original fiction for 2018!",

        "raw_content": "The Computers of Star Trek\nAuthor: Lois Gresh, Robert Weinberg\nREVIEW 1: Arthur Asa Berger\nHere's a problem for you. You want to write a somewhat technical book about computers. In this book you will deal with topics such as the widespread distrust of computer technology by the general public (and anxiety about what role this technology may play in the future), computer security, elementary electronics, the evolution of different generations of computers, the technology of computer processors, object-oriented programming, and so on -- without turning off the general reader.\n\"Beam me up!\" is the answer. You take the didactic pill of nerd-geek technological computer mumbo-jumbo and sugar-coat it by wrapping a Star Trek veneer around it. In doing so, you have the opportunity to attract two different audiences. The first is hard-core Trekkies who will read anything about Star Trek that is available. The second is people who are interested in computers and think that a book about the computers found in Star Trek may be relatively easy to digest.\nAnd with The Computers of Star Trek you have the best of both worlds -- an entertaining book about computers, that manages to sneak in a good deal of material on how they work, that will teach the general reader about these remarkable devices, and a book about one aspect (and an important one) of Star Trek to make glad the heart of Trekkies.\nPerhaps it won't make the Trekkies that happy because in a number of places the authors point out that the science and technology in Star Trek is pretty ridiculous. Thus, in their description of encryption, they write \"In summary, today's encryption methods are not terribly relevant to the world of Star Trek. The use of 'fractal encryption algorithms' by Data is absurd. Just more technobabble to make the show sound futuristic and serious\" (70).\nThe authors -- Lois H. Gresh, a science fiction writer and computer specialist who designs and codes corporate websites and systems, and Robert Weinberg, a novelist who has won the World Fantasy Award and Bram Stoker Award of the Horror Writer's Association -- have a good deal to say about the role of computers and new technologies in the future. One of their main goals is to show how each of the shows they deal with -- Star Trek (the original series), The Next Generation, Deep Space 9, and Voyager -- reflect \"the ideas and technologies of its time,\" and, as they point out, each of these shows was \"years behind what's happening in the research labs\" (xiii)\nThey also deal with an interesting philosophical problem -- the relation between emotions and our bodies. In their discussion of First Contact, they mention how the Borg hive-queen has activated Data's emotion chip and grafts a patch of organic skin onto Data's arm. She blows on this and Data has an \"orgasmic upswing.\" Then, the Borg queen challenges him to remove the skin, which Data refuses to do. As the authors explain:\nApparently Data's normal skin (the skin \"fabric\" that the nanites penetrate in \"Evolution\" (TNG) doesn't have nerve endings that feed into his emotion chip. But his new organic skin does. While it's clear that the movie is making a philosophical point -- without an organic body, emotions aren't really possible -- as a matter of simple wiring, the scene doesn't make much sense . . . We think the movie is wrong: An organic body is not a prerequisite to emotions. Emotions are a product of evolution -- a powerful adaptation that helps us learn and survive -- and there's no reason why an evolved alife intelligence couldn't have them, too. Some estimates place emotional reactions in artificially intelligent computer systems by the year 2050. (125)\nThis passage is typical of many found in the book -- which deal with what might be happening in the distant future. They predict that in three or four hundred years androids will have \"built-in, automatic emotional responses.\" How soon this will happen depends on when the next computer revolution occurs and we have \"DNA, quantum, optical, holographic, and other forms of computer technology\" (125).\nWhether inanimate objects can have emotions depends, of course, on how you define \"emotions,\" but there are many philosophers who would take issue with Gresh and Weinberg on their position. Will androids have \"real\" emotions or \"pseudo\" emotions -- responses that seem like emotions but don't qualify as emotions, as we typically define them.\nIn various places in the book the authors use events in particular episodes of Star Trek and the other series to speculate about what life might be like in a few hundred years -- speculations that will be of interest to futurologists. Of course, like the writers who scripted Star Trek and its offspring, they, too, are captives of our current technologies, though they are aware of new developments in computer technology, so their notions about what might be happening have a bit more likelihood of taking place.\nMany of the things that happened on Star Trek and the series that followed it were done because of the requirements of television. Television needed to shortcut the exits and entrances of characters into space ships, so transporters were created, and the same applies to replicators and holographic doctors. We are, after all, talking about television programs and there are certain narrative requirements and time issues that the writers of these programs had to deal with. In Star Trek and the other shows that followed it, the writers took what they knew about science and technology and projected it into the future. They were wrong about many things, of course, but at least they started their audiences thinking about the future.\nGresh and Weinberg conclude their book by writing \"The Star Trek future is on the way. Most likely, sooner than we think\" (163). Whether it will be like the future that they portray for us is impossible to say. But as they \"take off\" on various matters suggested by events that happened in various episodes of Star Trek and the series that came after it, they do offer a number of interesting points about the use of computers in the various Star Trek series and some fascinating speculations about what the world might be like in a few hundred years.\nArthur Asa Berger:\nArthur Asa Berger is professor of Broadcast & Electronic Communication Arts at San Francisco State University. Among his recent books are The Mass Comm Murders: Five Media Theorists Self Destruct, Video Games -- A Popular Culture Phenomenon, and Ads, Fads and Consumer Culture. <aandpberger@msn.com>",

        "raw_content": "New Technologies at Work: People, Screens and Social Virtuality\nEditor: Christina Garsten, Helena Wulff\nREVIEW 1: Petra Sonderegger\nNew Technologies at Work: People, Screens and Social Virtuality, edited by Christina Garsten and Helena Wulff, is a set of ethnographies, and as such it is no surprise that the authors aim to bring people, place, and social interactions to the forefront in their discussion of technology. Computers and the internet are treated as objects in a world still bound by geography and sociality. Computers are objects bought and sold; technology and its application are subject to rhetoric and false expectations; people integrate the virtual into their lives with surprisingly little fuss. An introductory chapter, which ties the subsequent papers together, highlights the contributors' analysis of rhetoric and practice.\nIn \"The computer as a focus of inattention: Five scenarios concerning hospital porters,\" Nigel Rapport describes a group of Scottish hospital porters and the role that computers play in their lives. Because the porters do not actually use computers for their work, the subject is somewhat unexpected given the book's topic. However, the porters do use more traditional technologies like telephones and pagers for official communications. By contrast, computers and the internet play an important role in shaping their unofficial role in the organization.\nIn the organizational context of the hospital, porters perform fairly menial tasks and are easily substituted. For many, an outside profession and interest significantly defines who they are, and they try to downplay the importance of portering in their lives. Outside interests -- often involving technology -- connect with their workplace through casual conversations, black market activities, and even thieving. Evidence of computer skills can be source of authority, prestige, and loyalty among their colleagues. As a result, computers and the internet are an important source of individuation for porters that let them counteract institutional pressures and maintain a sense of self-importance that they cannot achieve directly through their jobs.\nSarah Green's \"Digital ditches: Working in the virtual grassroots\" explores utopian rhetoric of the \"information revolution\" and how it works to the detriment of those it was supposed to help. A policy focus on information technology, connectedness, and the potentials of the virtual world served to devalue offline life and de-prioritize problems related to geography and society. As a result, people intended to benefit from \"information revolution\" policies saw their most pressing problems neglected in favor of internet training etc. Green also analyzes a related paradox centered on policies for \"life-long learning.\" Interestingly, similar criticism has since been directed at programs focused on bridging the \"digital divide\" in developing countries at the expense of programs for, say, water, nutrition, and public health.\nAnna Hasselstr\ufffdm's \"Real-time, real-place market: Transnational connections and disconnections in financial markets\" highlights the importance of personal, face-to-face communication, even in a market considered as efficient and impersonal as the international stock market. Hasselstr\ufffdm counters Castells' notion of a virtual world, \"where capital is allowed to escape from time\" (cit. p. 74), and where place no longer matters. She demonstrates that important aspects of the market remain physical -- whether it is information passed face-to-face that allows brokers to project confidence to their clients, or knowledge of a person's idiosyncracies that allows a trader to contextualize information, or simply the bonds established by traders who drink together. Despite the strong influence of technology and the existence of a near-perfect, global market, financial markets remain cultural and political constructions, rooted in physical and material settings, subject to temporal cycles and social interaction.\nHeinrich Schwarz's \"Mobile workplacing: Office design, space and technology\" again focuses on the clash between rhetoric and practice. Open, mobile offices are designed with a certain set of goals and values. However, everyday usage may support or subvert those initial intentions and can uncover conflicts between the stated goals. Schwarz traces the efforts of an architecture firm to introduce an open, \"alternative\" office, where most employees keep their files and other permanent aspects of their work online. This provides stability and continuity independent of the employee's geographic location -- inside or outside the office. The office design is supposed to enhance mobility and collaboration. However, over the course of his study, Schwarz finds that the emphasis on mobility is highly individuating and hinders the formation of deeper bonds that might facilitate collaboration. The technology in use also allows people to physically retreat from their colleagues and \"hide\" behind their virtual presence.\nIn \"Claiming the future: Speed, business rhetoric and computer practice,\" Robert Willim dissects the influence of the rhetoric of \"future\" on the technology workplace. He follows a new-economy firm, Framfab, and argues that its technology, rhetoric and work practices converged around a focus on speed and the future. Willim draws on the concept of conceptual congruity. He uses examples as varied as investor presentations and the experience of starting a computer to show that images and expectations can \"jump\" from technology analysis to marketing presentations or from technology use to expectations of workers. While the examples make for an interesting read, they don't quite tie together.\nPaula Uimonen, in her contribution \"Networking as a form of life: The transnational movement of internet pioneers,\" traces networks and networking as a defining characteristic of internet culture. She relates her observations of networking events to make a compelling case for the richness and complexity of social relations within online, offline, and combined contexts. Online and offline communication reinforce each other to establish and maintain relationships. The intensity of communication and interconnectedness of participants appears to be one of the factors in advancing internet usage in developing countries. The development of extensive mixed online-offline networks is hindered by a lack of bandwidth and by the fact that internet pioneers are often elites whose social and professional networks are powerful but limited in size.\nCo-editor Christina Garsten and David Lerdell contribute the eighth chapter, \"Mainstream rebels: Informalization and regulation in a virtual world.\" They question the rhetoric of informality, anti-authoritarianism, freedom, and openness in technology movements. As Uimonen points out in the previous chapter, internet pioneers and even normal users are generally elites. Garsten and Lerdell take this argument a step further, arguing that these elites engage in exclusionary behavior as much as any other social group. Despite the demonstrative informality of technology pioneers, their community has certain rigid norms and boundaries: netiquette, jargon, codes (e.g. emoticons), and even a dress code (no suits). Rhetoric of freedom and inclusiveness hides a strong hierarchy based on merit and position in the network of \"netizens.\"\n\"Steps on screen: Technoscapes, visualization and globalization in dance\" describes fascinating links between dance -- an artform that is pure embodiment -- and virtuality. Co-editor Helena Wulff traces the influence of technology on dance. The ability to record, to interact across distance, or to let dancers see their own videotaped movements have changed teaching, choreography, and the understanding of what it means to dance. Dancers' experiments, in turn, have pushed the boundaries of technology-mediated social relationships.\n\"Screening the classroom: Students, teachers and computers in an urban American school,\" by William Washabaugh et al, presents a thoughtful look at the use of computers in the classroom. The analysis uncovers affordances which let students pursue their own interests and styles of learning but also present new challenges for teachers. After some initial skepticism, students embrace the experiment of self-study using the internet, but educators find it much harder to direct students' energy and attention toward a specific teaching goal.\nMagnus Bergquist closes the volume with, \"Open source software development as gift culture: Work and identity formation in an internet community.\" In his view, writing source code, suggesting new projects, critiquing contributions, and testing new code are all forms of gift giving. Status within the group depends on the quality and quantity of these gifts.\nLike Uimonen and Garsten & Lerdell in preceding chapters, Bergquist finds the online groups he studies to be far from \"open.\" Newcomers are placed firmly at the bottom of the hierarchy and contributors who don't belong in the central \"in-group\" are dissuaded from more than marginal participation. As the open-source phenomenon grows to include more people, it has become necessary to document previously unspoken rules of the group. Despite these exclusionary forces, however, Bergquist finds the combined system of gift-giving and peer review to be surprisingly effective in producing robust and useful code.\nThe chapters in this volume cover an impressive range of both subject matter and technology discourse. Reading about dancers, stockbrokers, and hospital porters side-by-side is not only fascinating, but also frames technology discourse in a broader context than the white-collar environment it is often implicitly limited to. Unfortunately, some of the contributions come across as isolated fragments: Several of the chapters are not situated in prior research and don't address comparable ethnographies conducted by other scholars. Without this background, it becomes difficult for a non-specialized reader to judge the relevance of the research presented here.\nNew Technologies at Work is also reminder of the rapid pace of change in technology and its rhetoric -- and of the struggle of scholars to keep up. Parts of the book already seem dated as the discussion has moved beyond the dichotomies of utopia/dystopia and virtuality/spatiality to tackle many of the questions raised by the authors. Nevertheless, the book still provides valuable examples and analysis going forward.\nOverall, the book provides an intriguing window on a variety of workplaces, many of which are not traditionally associated with technology. The contributions provide interesting, detailed insight into people's actual experiences with technology and debunk some of the more extreme utopian and dystopian rhetoric around computers and the internet. The authors remind us that technology may help or hinder people in navigating their lives, but it won't uproot their social and physical nature.\nPetra Sonderegger:\nPetra Sonderegger is a PhD candidate in Communications at Columbia University.

        "title": "The Essential Guide to Commercial Real Estate Advertising - RECAP",
        "raw_content": "One of the biggest challenges for companies tackling their commercial real estate advertising as part of their commercial real estate marketing strategy is reaching a large enough audience to justify the expense.\nEspecially early in the process, it can be frustrating how long it takes to generate sufficient visibility and new prospects. Leveraging paid advertising channels can help to reach a much larger possible audience of people who are already searching for commercial real estate online.\nAdvertising your company or your listings can be overwhelming, but when done properly, there are a number of clear benefits, including:\nThe ability to reach a large, ready-to-talk audience almost instantly\nImmediate results to test your marketing collateral and targeting\nAn investment that can be easily measured to determine ROI\nSo, where should you spend your advertising dollars?\nFor commercial real estate companies, there are 5 important channels through which you can generate visibility \u2013 let\u2019s evaluate how best to leverage each for your next campaign.\nCRE Listing Sites\nAt the top of the list of commercial real estate advertising ideas are the commercial real estate listing sites that allow you to quickly put your premier properties in front of an audience already deep into the research and evaluation process.\nBesides the costlier sites, there are several good options that offer specific pricing and advertising packages based on your specific needs.\nWhy Advertise in Listing Sites?\nCommercial real estate listings sites are online marketplaces that connect tenants and buyers with properties for lease and sale.\nYou can aggregate available commercial spaces for sale, lease, sublease or co-working and allow your ideal prospects to search them based on their location, space needs, and amenities.\nThe audience for CRE listing sites are investors, brokers and tenants searching for different types of commercial properties for sale or lease.\nBecause they are content-rich and updated constantly, they rank well in Google for location and amenity-specific searches, and will be viewed by interested prospects who are early in the buying cycle, as well as those familiar with these sites and performing more targeted searches.\nCommon Advertising Format\nMost CRE listing sites offer a combination of free and paid features depending on their reach and audience. Most free plans are time limited and provide minimal features for describing your properties.\nSubscription plans \u2013 These depend on the number of property listings, location, users or number of leads you will receive. Memberships also range from single properties to enterprise plans for brokerage offices with multiple properties and agents.\nPremium listings \u2013 The majority listing sites offer the possibility to enhance the visibility of your listings within their search results.\nOther CRE professionals and prospective tenants/buyers who are active in the industry commonly read commercial real estate trade journals such as Magazine, National Real Estate Investor and Real Estate Forum. They feature the latest industry insights, market trends, market reports and thought leadership articles that can be highly relevant to your target audience.\nWhy Advertise in Commercial Real Estate Trade Journals?\nTrade journals offer specialized content focus that trade publications have for commercial real estate topics. Advertising in commercial real estate trade journals gives you the chance to reach a highly targeted audience of potential clients and partners and at the same time drive brand awareness for your business.\nTrade journal audience are commercial real estate professionals interested in reading about industry trends in office, retail, industrial, multi-family space, the impact of economic conditions on the market, and industry leader outlooks from the top experts in the field. They are plugged into the industry unlike anyone else and are a captive audience for the right campaigns.\nCommon Advertising Formats\nThere are often multiple different advertising options available depending on the publication, the number of channels they manage, and their circulation numbers. These include:\nMagazine/Journal Advertising \u2013 This will depend highly on circulation and placement \u2013 it can range from $500 to $10,000.\nNewsletter Advertising \u2013 Many of these sites also offer newsletters, in which you can place ads or featured content for between $600-$3,000.\nWebsite Advertising \u2013 Traffic tends to be higher for website advertising and rates fluctuate accordingly, starting at $500 and ranging upwards depending on unique visitors per month.\nNews Sites & Blogs\nWhile many trade journals have a dedicated web presence with significant traffic, they are often formatted and presented differently than traditional news sites and blogs\nWhy Advertise in Commercial Real Estate News Sites & Blogs?\nMuch like trade journals, these sites are designed to provide thought leadership and industry news to professionals in the commercial real estate industry. They highlight recent news, columns by leading voices in the industry, and frequently searched trends. More importantly, they drive large visitor numbers that you can target through your ads.\nNews sites and blogs tend to have a slightly more diverse audience than trade journals, which are designed for a narrow, but highly targeted audience. As a result, a website like The Real Deal will generate more page views and visitors per month but may include people outside dedicated developers and commercial real estate professionals. Your audience likely includes private investors, tenants, researchers, and those staying up to date on the market in general. The breakdown tends to lean towards CXX and ownership, as well as EVP, SVP, and acquisitions focused individuals with a smaller contingent of finance professionals, brokers, and lawyers.\nAdvertising on a news site or blog is available in several forms, including:\nBanner Ads \u2013 These are placed throughout the site, above the fold, in the sidebar, or alongside specific posts. The placement and size of the ad will determine the cost, which is then scaled against the number of impressions expected in the period during which you advertise.\nEmail Newsletter \u2013 Most news and blogs sites will maintain a sizable email distribution list and offer sponsored content opportunities to that list. Rates will depend on the size and quality of the list.\nSponsored Content \u2013 Many but not all news and blog sites offer sponsored content opportunities. Thought leadership alongside your company\u2019s name that highlights an area that is particularly impact to your target audience.\nThe world\u2019s largest advertising network is tempting for any business attempting to generate leads online. Google owns more than 75% of the search market share in North America and has the world\u2019s largest online display advertising network, reaching more than 80% of global Internet users, so investing in AdWords is attractive, but is it a good fit for your commercial real estate business?\nWhy Advertise in Google AdWords?\nGoogle AdWords is the advertising platform that runs alongside Google\u2019s search results. It also powers display ads and video advertising on millions of websites and YouTube. Google\u2019s ad network is extensive. It reaches billions of people around the globe, and is ubiquitous on both desktop and mobile devices. Simply put, if you want people to see your advertisements, Google is the best way to do so.\nEveryone. In addition, while this is very tempting, it can also lead to excessive, poorly targeted spend. Google\u2019s text ads work by targeting specific keywords that someone might search for in the search engine, charging for every click on that ad by a user. If you are too broad, it is easy to attract not only the wrong people to your website, but to do so for the wrong searches. Google AdWords can be setup and running in less than 10 minutes, but for proper targeting that does not cost you a fortune, it needs to be finely tuned.\nThere are two main types of campaigns on Google AdWords, each with dozens of permutations and options. They include:\nGoogle Search \u2013 The text ads that appear above and below Google\u2019s search results are bid on by advertisers at a per-click rate. The amount you pay will depend on your bid, the competition for that term, and other factors like quality score and how relevant your website is.\nDisplay Network \u2013 Google\u2019s display ads show on millions of websites including specific Google websites like Google Finance, Gmail, Blogger, and YouTube. The network also includes mobile sites and apps. You can use text, image, video, or rich media formats and define the types of sites, keyword matches, and traffic demographics you would like to reach and are similarly charged for each click on these ads.\nIn terms of pricing, both display network and Google search ads will charge you based on a per-click model. A good average Click Thru Rate is 2.5%, so for every click you pay for; you will receive 40 or more impressions. The cost per click can be as low as $1 for general terms and low competition keywords, and as high as $50+ for highly competitive CRE targets..\nSocial media advertising is relatively new compared to the other options on this list and can be slightly more difficult because of how many options are at your disposal. Not only are there multiple networks on which you can advertise, but each network offers several forms of advertising you can purchase. So how do you spend wisely and reach the right audience?\nSocial media offers a number of advantages over the other sources in this article.\nTo start, it is ubiquitous in a way that few things are.\nMore than 133 million people have LinkedIn accounts, and 41% of all high wealth individuals are active on the platform. Facebook reaches 1.4 billion daily active users, 207 million of which are in the US. Most of the people you target are on Facebook or LinkedIn, and the advertising tools here allow you to target them based on a number of criteria.\nMuch like Google AdWords, the answer is nearly everyone. With a majority of adults on Facebook and a majority of professionals using LinkedIn, you can reach a huge swath of your audience with well-targeted ads on either platform.\nUnlike AdWords, however, which requires careful selection of keywords for ad targeting, you can show ads on social media based on user-provided demographics and interests. LinkedIn allows targeting by company name, size, and revenue, while Facebook allows targeting by location, age, and specific interests and job titles. This targeting power is important to be successful on either platform.\nSocial media advertising can be done in one of several ways, with new options becoming available as new features are rolled out:\nIn-Feed Ads \u2013 The most common type of ad on social media is a featured or sponsored post. This is content published a company page that is boosted via ads to appear to people outside your network. Because Facebook shows organic content to as few as 10% of your followers and LinkedIn is not much better, this is a vital tool to boost the reach of published content.\nText Ads \u2013 LinkedIn allows you to show text ads in the sidebar of content on their platform. These ads are short, much like Google\u2019s text ads, but are targeted based on demographics, rather than search patterns.\nVideo Ads \u2013 Both Facebook and LinkedIn now support video advertising in some form, with more features rolling out. Video ads are placed in organically posted videos to as well as standalone within user feeds.\nPricing for social media advertising varies dramatically. On Facebook, for example, you can spend between $0.50-$3.00 per click based on the target audience and the engagement rates of your content. On LinkedIn, cost per click is usually higher, but with a professional network, you are getting a more engaged audience in most cases.\nDriving Success with Targeted Commercial Real Estate Advertising\nIf you are preparing to increase your advertising budget and start generating new leads for your CRE business, one of the first steps is to evaluate the potential return on investment you will see.\nBased on your budget, desired reach, and ability to experiment, the five platforms listed in this article will give you the opportunity to test and build an advertising plan that works best for you.",

        "raw_content": "Secretary General Ban Ki-moon discusses the role of RtoP in the future of global human security\nSummary of Report:\nThe present report is submitted pursuant to paragraph 143 of the 2005 World Summit Outcome (General Assembly resolution 60/1), in which the Heads of State and Government committed themselves to discuss and define the notion of humansecurity. The report provides an update on developments related to the advancement of human security since the 2005 World Summit. It takes stock of discussions on human security, its various definitions and its relationship to State sovereignty and the Responsibility to Protect. The report also outlines the principles and the approach for advancing human security and its application to the current priorities of the United Nations. Key human security initiatives undertaken by Governments, regional and subregional intergovernmental organizations, as well as the organizations and bodies of the United Nations system, are presented as examples of the reach of this important concept and its growing acceptance. The report concludes by identifying the core elements and the added value of human security and provides a set of recommendations as a follow-up to the above-mentioned commitment contained in the World Summit Outcome. Human security is based on a fundamental understanding that Governments retain the primary role for ensuring the survival, livelihood and dignity of their citizens. It is an invaluable tool for assisting Governments in identifying critical and pervasive threats to the welfare of their people and the stability of their sovereignty. It advances programmes and policies that counter and address emerging threats in a manner that is contextually relevant and prioritized. This helps Governments and the international community to better utilize their resources and to develop strategies that strengthen the protection and empowerment framework needed for the assurance of human security and the promotion of peace and stability at every level \u2014 local, national, regional and international.\n(\u2026) B. Human security and the Responsibility to Protect\n23. As agreed in paragraph 143 of the World Summit Outcome, the purpose of human security is to enable all individuals to be free from fear and want, and to enjoy all their rights and fully develop their human potential. The use of force is not envisaged in the application of the human security concept. The focus of human security is on fostering Government and local capacities and strengthening the resilience of both to emerging challenges in ways that are mutually reinforcing, preventive and comprehensive.\n24. Meanwhile, the Responsibility to Protect, as agreed upon by Member States in paragraphs 138 to 140 of the World Summit Outcome, focuses on protecting populations from specific cases of genocide, war crimes, ethnic cleaning and crimes against humanity. As noted in the Secretary-General\u2019s report on implementing the Responsibility to Protect(A/63/677), the international community, guided by the principles of the Charter, must do its part to prevent and limit the escalation of these cases. Such cases result in large and complex humanitarian crises that are costly in terms of human lives, loss of social capital and financial resources, and are more difficult to resolve later.

        "title": "Great Games to Teach Children About Money and Personal Finance (and Math!) - RETIRING ON MY TERMS",
        "raw_content": "As we head into the holiday season, many are looking for gift ideas for the children in their lives.\nToday I\u2019m going to share some great games we have played with our children, and in some cases also played while growing up. In my opinion, each of these games help teach important lessons about money and personal finance. In their own way, these games have helped shape the financial decisions \u2013 both smart and dumb \u2013 I have made, and continue to make, in real life on my path towards financial independence and early retirement.\nPlus, each of these games is a lot of fun to play!\nLakeshore Allowance Game\nThe fairly realistic looking play coins and bills in The Lakeshore Allowance Game are attractive to children. At a very basic level, this game teaches kids about earning interest on bank deposits and investing in a business (a lemonade stand) to generate future income. There\u2019s also lots of counting and making change when they earn money for chores like washing the car, mowing the lawn, or babysitting, as well as when they spend money on things like ice cream, bubble gum, or at the mall. The results are entirely up to chance, so the youngest family member has the same chance of winning as anyone else. If you want to get your children working on math skills while thinking about the costs and benefits of spending and saving, Lakeshore Allowance Game is a great introduction to those concepts! Ages 5+\nLearning Resources Sum Swamp Game, 8 Pieces\nTo be honest, this game is about math, and not personal finance. So why include it? First, I wanted to include some games appropriate for younger children. Second, it\u2019s my list! Third, and most important, Sum Swamp does a great job teaching basic addition and subtraction, as well as even and odd numbers, in the context of a fun game that doesn\u2019t take too long to play. Those initial mathematical concepts are used in a more sophisticated form in most of the other games on this list. As well as in daily life! Ages 5+\nLearning Resources Money Bags Coin Value Game\nFor younger children, Money Bags is a great option. The plastic coins and paper money in the game are similar in size, shape, and color to the real thing, which is fun for kids. Players are constantly earning money and making change as the game moves along, and children don\u2019t even realize they are learning how to count while they are having fun! One neat feature is a spinner that excludes a certain type of coin from being used when collecting your earnings (for example, a player may need to count out 54 cents without using quarters). The winner is based completely on the luck of the die, but that just evens things out for younger participants. If you want to have some quick family fun while working on basic math, Money Bags is an awesome choice! Ages 7+\nAspiring merchants and traders could do much worse than Pit for their first foray into the world of finance. Each hand, your goal is to corner the market in one of eight commodities, which all have a different value. The winner is the player who gets to 500 points first, which requires many hands of play. Do you try to corner the market on the most valuable commodity against several rivals, or collect something less valuable where there may be less competition and a higher likelihood of success? Paying attention to what commodities other players are trying to collect and discarding can definitely improve your chance of victory, and you might need to completely change your strategy in the middle of a hand. Pit is definitely of the rowdier and more engaging games on this list! Ages 7+\nI have lots of great memories (and some not so great ones!) of playing Monopoly with family and friends while growing up. Yes, luck is very important in the granddaddy of board games. If you don\u2019t land on the right properties at the right time, or you happen to land on the wrong properties at the wrong time, it\u2019s pretty difficult to win.\nThat said, there\u2019s more to Monopoly than pure luck. Negotiation skills are critical to success when you start trading properties, and paying for properties and collecting rents helps develop counting skills. Calculating probabilities comes into play when its time to build houses and hotels and you want to deploy finite resources as efficiently as possible. Heck, there are even times when its more strategic to stay in jail than it is to get out of jail. While luck is important, there are lots of dimensions to consider while playing this all-time classic! Ages 8+\nThe Game of Life Game\nLike Monopoly, The Game of Life has been around for as long as I can remember. At the beginning of the game you are faced with the decision to start earning money immediately, or to spend money to go to college and (hopefully!) find a higher paying career for the remainder of the contest. Throughout the game there are other similar decisions, like choosing to go to night school, purchase a home, or start a family. Meanwhile, there are lots of unexpected events that can have positive or negative impacts on your finances. Towards the end of the game, as you get closer to retirement, you have the opportunity to choose between safer and riskier routes as you head towards the end of your career. I view \u201cRisky Road\u201d as similar to putting your life savings into a penny stock and hoping for the best. There\u2019s a chance it will work out \u2013 but it probably won\u2019t end well! Ages 8+\nNet Worth, the FUN Money Game\nA relatively new addition to the ROMT family\u2019s toy chest, but quickly becoming a favorite for a quick game with the kids after dinner. Think UNO meets personal finance. The goal is to get rid of your debts as quickly as possible, and the winner is the player with the highest net worth at the end of the game.\nNet Worth gets children thinking about the basic building blocks of accounting statements, like assets and liabilities, and helps reinforce that a positive net worth is a good thing! My only complaint is that oftentimes multiple players finish the game with a negative net worth, but even this ends up helping teach children about adding up negative numbers. Ages 8+\nIf you like Monopoly, but it\u2019s no longer sophisticated enough for your refined tastes, Triopoly may be the answer. There are multiple levels of play available for up to eight players. Game play is similar to Monopoly, but there are a lot more dimensions involved. Instead of building houses and hotels, you construct gas stations, shopping malls, and skyscrapers. Instead of being sent to jail, you spend time waiting at the airport terminal. There\u2019s also a lot of chance involved when playing the stock market, winning the lottery, and gambling in cities like Las Vegas and Monte Carlo. If you like Monopoly, but have gotten bored with it, Triopoly may be worth a, well, try. Ages 10+\n\u201cStocks & Bonds \u2013 The Game of Investments\u201d (3M Brand Stock Market Bookshelf Game) (3M Bookshelf Games, C-B170R)\nWhen I was growing up, I enjoyed playing Avalon Hill\u2019s \u201cBookcase Games\u201d. Many of these games introduced me to fairly sophisticated financial ideas, such as inflation, business strategy, foreign exchange, gold, and the stock market.\nMy favorite, however, was Stocks & Bonds. In this game, each player invests in a portfolio of individual stocks and bonds. Some of the stocks deliver volatile returns, while others are steadier. Returns are also impacted by whether you are in a Bull Market or a Bear Market. The dividend stocks and bonds in the game help teach the importance of income, in addition to capital appreciation, when building a portfolio. As you might expect, the winner is the player with the most valuable portfolio at the end of the game! Ages 12+",

        "raw_content": "The step up from manager to leader is one of the most challenging transitions in the corporate world. Continuing to focus on the skills and behaviours that have propelled you into senior management can actually limit your success once you\u2019ve reached the corner office. As the title of Marshall Goldsmith\u2019s excellent book puts it: \u201cWhat got you here won\u2019t get you there\u201d.\nThe early and middle stages of a successful executive\u2019s career focus on \u201cdoing\u201d. For example, the sales executive who beats his numbers and outperforms his peers, or the IT or engineering executive who delivers even the most complex projects on time and on budget. These up and comers get noticed. If they combine competence with political savvy and eQ, they get promoted, fast.\nYet the further up the corporate ladder you move, the less time you spend using your original skills. Great CFO\u2019s spend relatively little time poring over spreadsheets, and outstanding CIO\u2019s do not run IT programs. Instead, they attract and retain talented people within their teams, who they then trust with these tasks.\nWhatever they started out as \u2013 be it a sales exec or an accountant or a project manager \u2013 the most effective senior executives recognise that their \u201cjob\u201d now is to be a leader. As a result, they make developing and improving their leadership capabilities a top priority.\nLeadership is a skill that can be learned, and even \u2018natural\u2019 leaders can always do better. After all, Roger Federer still spends hours a day working on his game. As a senior executive, your \u2018game\u2019 is leadership. So whether you read books and articles, seek out mentors, or engage an executive coach, by actively focusing on improving your leadership skills you will be maximizing the odds of turning an already successful career into an exceptional one.",

Established by Law 13,005, 2014, the PNE sets out guidelines and strategies for Brazilian educational policy until 2024. According to the survey, the only objective to be successfully achieved was the publication of studies by the Brazilian Institute for Educational Studies and Research (INEP) to enable progress of the targets to be measured. One important action yet to be carried out is the progressive implementation of two instruments\u2014the Initial Quality Education Cost (CAQi) and the Quality Education Cost (CAQ)\u2014that are designed to determine the minimum investment needed per student per year to improve the quality of education in Brazil. \u201cThe fact that these initial objectives have not been achieved has a knock-on effect on the second stage targets, which aim to address access and quality at all levels of education,\u201d explains Andressa Pellanda, coordinator of educational policy at the National Campaign for the Right to Education. While progress has been made over recent years in some areas, such as access to early childhood education, further improvement is still needed. The proportion of children enrolled in childcare between the ages of 0 and 3 increased from 24.5% in 2011 to 31.9% in 2016\u2014the PNE predicts that this figure will rise to 50% by 2024. \u201cWe need to guarantee access to education for all children, because they represent the base of Brazil\u2019s population pyramid. A lack of schooling for this group will have a long-term impact on the country\u2019s development,\u201d Pellanda says.",

        "title": "Roads to the Great War: Remembering a Veteran: Lt. Ralph Vaughan Williams",
        "raw_content": "Ralph Vaughan Williams, OM (1872\u20131958) was one of the most prolific composers in the history of English music, certainly the most important of the 20th century even though he only lived for about half of it. He composed symphonies, operas, ballets, concerti, chamber music, film scores, radio scores, rhapsodies, and sonatas, as well as works for organ, band, chorus, piano, organ, and individual vocalists\u2014over 180 distinct works plus dozens of adaptations. He is particularly known for his hymns written in the C of E choral style, mostly in his early period. The current hymnal of the Episcopal Church in the USA contains 24 of his works, more than any other composer, and his 1906 composition \u201cFor All the Saints\u201d is found in most Christian hymnals regardless of denomination. Listen to this performance by the world famous Choir of King\u2019s College, Cambridge (skip the ad):\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1OaBgaMcOvM\nHis family was wealthy due to his mother\u2019s inheritance from the Wedgewood potteries fortune. His father was a well-born vicar with the double surname Vaughan Williams, in that unusual English tradition, and Ralph enjoyed a living from his family for his entire life, which then paid over to The Ralph Vaughan Williams Trust which still assists young musicians in their training. He married Virginia Woolf\u2019s cousin, the cellist Adeline Fisher, in 1897. There were no children.\nVaughn Williams Conducting After the War\nRalph was educated at the Royal College of Music in London and Trinity College, Cambridge, where he was awarded a doctorate in 1899. Throughout his life he the only honorific that he wanted was to be called \"Dr.\u201d, and he turned down all honors offered to him that carried a title, accepting only the Order of Merit in 1935, which is perhaps the most prestigious honor because there can be only 24 living holders at any time. The only wage-paying jobs that he ever held were as the organist at St. Barnabas Church in Lambeth, South London, from 1895 to 1899 and as a soldier of the King from 1915 until 1919.\nWilliams (Highlighted) in Formation\nHis First World War service has been described as one of the two watershed experiences in his career, which changed the flavor and volume of his musical ouevre. In the years after the war he produced a large number of his operas and symphonies. The other watershed was his tempestuous love affair with Ursula Wood, an aspiring poet he met in 1938. Both were married to others, he was 39 years older than she, and this went on until they married in 1953, after both of their spouses had finally died. If you\u2019re curious, you can read more about this here:\nhttp://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-567375/Vaughan-Williams-wife-mistress-shared-bed.html\nShortly after completing what would be his most famous romantic piece, titled \"A Lark Ascending,\" Vaughan Williams enlisted on 31 December 1914 for a four-year term of service as a private in the Royal Army Medical Corps (Territorial Force), in the 2/4th London Field Ambulance, part of the 179th Brigade within the 60th (2/2nd London) Division. The most likely reason he chose the Field Ambulance was his age\u2014he was 42 years old. His first service was at the Duke of York\u2019s HQ in Chelsea, a barracks that was very close to his residence, where he underwent training in squad drill, stretcher drill, first aid, and lectures on military practice. The drill was rigorous for Vaughan Williams, who had flat feet. There was, however, still enough time to form a band, with Vaughan Williams as the conductor, as there were many musicians who were serving in the unit. The \"2\" in 2/4th meant second line, which would normally not be sent on active service, but would repopulate the first line as needed. Thus it was reasonable for him to assume that he might never leave England.\nVaughn Williams (Right) with His Ambulance Section\nBut needs must, and second line notwithstanding, mobilization orders were received on 15 June 1916 and the battalion left for France on 22 June. Vaughan Williams went to Ecoivres, a few miles north-west of Arras, on the slopes of Vimy Ridge. The British had taken over this sector of the front line in March. Conditions were terrible. Their task was evacuating the wounded from the Neuville St. Vaast area. The terrain was largely flattened\u2014nothing was more than five feet tall. The soldiers were surrounded by dead bodies and rats by the million. The men worked in two-hour shifts. It was dangerous work, the roads almost impassable from shelling. A biographer, Alain Frogley, writes of this period that, since Vaughan Williams was considerably older than most of his comrades, \"the back-breaking labor of dangerous night-time journeys through mud and rain must have been more than usually punishing\". The war left its emotional mark on Vaughan Williams, who lost many comrades and friends, including the young composer and prot\u00e9g\u00e9 George Butterworth. \u201cNever such innocence again,\u201d another biographer, Philip Larkin, would later write.\nVaughn Williams (Right Rear) Military Bandmaster\nIn mid-November the 60th Division received orders to go to Salonika. For Vaughan Williams, the nightmare of the trenches was over, although circumstances in Macedonia weren\u2019t all that great. He left that front in 1917 to take a commission in the Royal Garrison Artillery, serving as a band conductor. Once again, however, needs must, and the German March 1918 offensive required that he take command of a battery and he served on the Western Front for several months before becoming the conductor of General Henry Horne\u2019s First Army HQ Band. As a result of his artillery service, his hearing was impaired.\nSources include The Ralph Vaughan Williams Society and The Ralph Vaughan Williams Trust\nA fascinating look at a great composer.

        "title": "rpsoft 2000 music chord progressions",
        "raw_content": "Music Chord Progressions\nHave you ever wondered how certain musicians seem to do very well picking up new songs? One might think or suggest that they have a great \"ear\" for music. And well they might. But for many popular songs - pop or rock, picking up a new song is often a combination of two things. One of those is indeed sounding the song out, but the other is that many popular songs follow what we might call a chord progression - or at least close to a standard progression or pattern.\nA chord progression is made up of the several chords that might be used in a popular song and includes the order that they are played in. We will show examples mostly in the key of C, but -please keep in mind that chord progressions can begin on any base note / chord of the chromatic scale. The most common of all chord progressions is three chords - often called a \"three chord progression\". See? Not so hard. The chord for that shown first in major chords are:\nC,F,G (C Major, F Major, and G major)\nThe base notes of the chords comprise the first note, fourth note and fifth note of the scales. Often this simple three chord progression uses a dominant 7th chord for the third chord and would be therefore:\nC,F,G7 (C Major, F Major, and G 7th)\nWell, the original songwriters might think this too simplistic, but several popular songs can simply be played using three chords. Some examples of that are \"Twist and Shout\", \"Jamaica Farewell\", \"Do you Love Me?\", \"Ole Time Rock and Roll\" and many others.\nThe Rock Key Twist\nI have said that I would do this section in the key of C mainly for simplicity, but let us digress a bit for Rock music players. The key of C as shown above is very popular for piano players and other keyboard players, since it has no or at least few sharps and flats. However, to a guitar player, they are more comfortable often in keys that can bother a keyboard player - such as the key of E or the key of A. Many, many rock songs are in the key of E or A. The three chord progressions in those keys would be:\nKey of E: E,A,B or E,A,B7 (E Major, A Major, B Major or E Major, A Major, B 7th)\nKey of A: A,D,E or A,D,E7 (A Major, D Major, E Major or A Major, D Major, E 7th)\nMore Complex Three Chord Patterns\nIt is also very possible that the song may have only three chords, but use a slightly different pattern for the chords in the song. For example a very popular three chord pattern as below is used in a number of songs, and is often used by some bands right before their breaks:\nC, C, F, C, F, G, C\nIn this case the F and the G played together near the end of that, are given about half of the time as the other chords. And yes, if you are guessing that G 7th is sometimes used instead of G Major in that pattern, you would of course be right. The pattern shown there is just simply an easy pattern for band members to follow and may easily be in an ad-lib session.\nWe have talked mainly here about chords - which would be the background and structure of the song. The chords might be played by guitars, keyboard players, or made up of notes played by many orchestra instruments. A good question now is, what would the notes that comprise the melody be?\nThe quick answer to that is that the notes of the melody will often - but not always - be the notes of the chords themselves. When the melody note is not a note within the chord, it is sometimes called a \"passing\" note. Therefore a musician trying to learn a song without sheet music would first try the notes within the chord itself. For example, while C Major chord is playing, the notes within this chord are C, E, and G. A musician would first try and listen with their ear to see if one of those three is the melody note.\nMelody notes that are far from the chord itself and lasting long are unusual. That is because the overall sound of that melody note when added to the chord may in fact sound displeasing, or at least different.\nRefrains / Chorus\nIf the pop song that we are working on has a chorus or a refrain where the melody changes abruptly, there is also a common convention for that. For the chord progression C, F and G, the main melody and verses will follow the C, F, G pattern - or at least loosely. When the chorus approaches, it often begins with the base note of the fourth note of the scale - F in this case. One would expect the chorus to begin with an F major. The whole structure for a three chord progression song with a different melody in its chorus would be:\nverses: C, F, G (several times)\nchorus / refrain: F, C, F, G (or something similar)\nnote also that both verses and choruses tend to end their progression using the chord made up of the fifth base note of the scale - G in this case.\nFour Chord Progressions\nThere also are some popular four chord progressions. The ones that come to my mind first, are the ones that really are the three chord progression shown above, but with a minor added right after the first chord. Some popular ones:\nC, Am, F, G (C Major, A minor, F Major, G Major. and of course G Major could be G 7th)\nC, Em, F, G (C Major, E minor, F Major, G Major. and of course G Major could be G 7th)\nFor folk music enthusiasts, \"Puff the Magic Dragon\" seems to somewhat follow the last 4 chord progression. Although the version of it that I know is in a different key, the key of G. Transposing it would be:\nG, Bm, C, D\nUnusual Chord Progressions\nYes, there can be pop songs and chord progressions that are none of the above, and ones that may include many unique chords. For this, try listening closely to chord sounds - you can often distinguish the chord type. Now here, this next part gets very subjective, and your ear may in fact tell you other things that come to its mind rather than my opinion. However a Major chord just simply sounds \"right\". A minor chord, often sounds more \"wistful\" or \"sad\". A 6th and a 9th tends to sound like a more complete, thorough, chord than a major. And an augmented chord - sounds like an augmented (smiles). Sustained chords - sus 4 and sus 2 just sound like passing chords - meaning they do not seem that stable by themselves. Diminished chords seem \"full\" to \"overflowing\". And not sure what to say about 7th chords, but they also sound somewhat distinct.\nAgain, learning a popular song can be a combination of two things, sounding it out and also looking for patterns. Between a good use of those two, many of us can do well, even without sheet music, for at least some of the simpler songs.\nRecommended eBook on One Person Band Music Making and Recording",

Despite encompassing primarily moist evergreen forest, it contains a diverse array of landscapes. Kibale is one of the last remaining expanses to contain both lowland and montane forests.\nKibale National Forest has one of the highest diversity and concentration of primates in Africa. It is home to a large number of endangered chimpanzees, as well as the red colobus monkey and the rare L\u2019Hoest\u2019s monkey. The park is also home to over 325 species of birds, 4 wild fellids, various species of primates, and a total of at least 60 other species of mammals and over 250 tree species. The predominant ecosystem in Kibale is moist evergreen and semi-deciduous forest.\nThere are 13 species of primates in Kibale National Park. The park protects several well-studied habituated communities of Common Chimpanzee, as well as several species of Central African monkey including the Uganda Mangabey (Lophocebus ugandae), the Ugandan Red Colobus (Procolobus tephrosceles) and the L\u2019Hoest\u2019s Monkey. Other primates that are found in the park include the black (Colobus satanas) colobus and the blue monkey (Cercopithecus mitis). The park\u2019s population of elephants travels between the park and Queen Elizabeth National Park. Other terrestrial mammals that are found within Kibale National Park include red and blue duikers, bushpigs, warthogs, and buffalo.\nThe carnivores that are present include leopards, bushpigs, three species of duiker and two species of otter. In addition, lions visit the park on occasion.\nBird life is also prolific. The park boasts 325 sited species of birds, including the olive long-tailed cuckoo, Western Green tinkerbird, two species of pittas (African and Green-breasted) and the African Grey Parrot. The ground thrush (Turdus kibalensis) is endemic to Kibale National Park.\nKibale adjoins Queen Elizabeth National Park to the south to create a 180km-long corridor for wildlife between Ishasha, the remote southern sector of Queen Elizabeth National Park, and Sebitoli in the north of Kibale National Park.\nGuided walks can be arranged and take 2-3 hours.",

If the court agrees, the evidence will be thrown out.\nThe evidence in question is kept on nine disks taken from the Mobtel mobile phone operator.\nThe defence has already filed a motion to have the disks excluded from evidence, but it was rejected by the Appeals Court in May.\nAt Thursday\u2019s hearing, the Higher Court said it will announce its decision on the evidence on June 12.\nThe trial for the murder of Curuvija opened in 2015, 16 years after he was shot dead. He was allegedly killed because of his opposition to Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic.\nAccording to the indictment, an \u2018unknown person\u2019 ordered the killing of Curuvija and Radomir Markovic, the former head of Serbian State Security, abetted the crime, while three former security service officers \u2013 Ratko Romic, Milan Radonjic and Miroslav Kurak \u2013 took part in the organisation and execution of the murder.\nKurak was the direct perpetrator, while Romic was his accomplice, it is alleged.\nThree of the suspects have pleaded not guilty, while Kurak is on the run and is being tried in absentia.\nMarkovic is currently serving a 40-year sentence for the murder of former Serbian President Ivan Stambolic and other crimes, while Romic was acquitted alongside Radonjic in September last year of the attempted murder of opposition party leader Vuk Draskovic.\nBalkan Insight, BIRN, Filip Rudic, Belgrade, 01/06/2018\n\u0106uruvijatrialwitness\nThe Journalism Academy 2018 for students of journalism and young journalists began",

        "raw_content": "Shelby Aaberg\nNoyce Master Teaching Fellowship\nNot many people can say they have shaken a President\u2019s hand three times in four months, as Shelby Aaberg can.\nTwo of those three times almost didn\u2019t happen.\nAaberg, a Noyce Master Teaching Fellow, was scheduled to fly to Washington on April 25, 2015, for the celebration of the State Teachers of the Year at The White House.\nHis wife, Laura, went into labor with their second child on April 24, and their son, Emmett, was born that afternoon.\nThe 2015 Nebraska Teacher of the Year changed his flight to April 26 and arrived late to the initial event, held at the home of Vice President Joe Biden. (Small world: He discovered the guard at the Naval Observatory gate was his distant relative.) Later that week, Aaberg shook President Obama\u2019s hand in the Oval Office before all of the teachers were honored at the Rose Garden in an outdoor ceremony.\nLittle did he know an upcoming second hand shake was about to be captured on TV, in front of a huge crowd outside. [A video of the recognition event can be found at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=efilOT3cQrM.]\n\u201cDean Aamodt, the 2015 North Dakota Teacher of the Year and a music teacher, had written a song for the President that all of us sang. The President was surprised by this and decided to walk through the crowd of teachers to exit the ceremony. As he walked through the middle of the crowd, my heart started racing. I thought, \u2018I am going to get to shake the President\u2019s hand again, this time in front of all these people,\u2019 \u201d the Scottsbluff High School teacher said. \u201cImmediately after the hand shake, my phone buzzed in my pocket. Lora Sypal, the Nebraska coordinator of the Teacher of the Year program, had actually screen-captured photos of my handshake immediately after it happened. The photo is my background banner on my Twitter profile.\u201d\nAaberg\u2019s second trip to Washington in 2015 was unexpected. After applying for the Presidential Award for Excellence in Mathematics and Science Teaching (PAEMST) in 2013 and becoming a finalist, it wasn\u2019t until the summer of 2015 that he was told he had won the 2013 award.\nThis time, he made sure to bring his wife along on the trip, since traveling in April was out of the question for her. On the second trip for PAEMST, he shook President Obama\u2019s hand a third time.\nAaberg also got to visit Jim Lewis, former PI of the NebraskaNOYCE grant, at the NSF during a professional development day for the PAEMST winners.\n\u201cTeaching is the single most important human endeavor,\u201d Aaberg, a 10-year veteran teacher said. \u201cThe teaching profession needs more opportunities to recognize teacher leaders and to distinguish exemplary classroom practice. For these reasons, I wanted to become a Noyce Master Teaching Fellow. Many of the professional opportunities that have come my way have been a result of my involvement with the Noyce program.\u201d\nA Gering High School graduate, a school found in the far western Nebraska Panhandle, Aaberg earned a bachelor\u2019s degree from UNL and a master\u2019s degree at the University of Nebraska at Omaha in mathematics education, as well as endorsements in assessment leadership and English as a Second Language. He is currently working on his doctorate in education at UNL.\nHe spent his first two years as a high school educator at Omaha Westside High School, but moved back to the Gering area to Scottsbluff, to be closer to his wife\u2019s family. At Scottsbluff High School, where 40 percent of the students are Hispanic and approximately 54 percent of the students receive free or reduced lunches, Aaberg started an AP Calculus course, as well as Math Club, and has been the sprint coach since 2006. He coached the girls team to a state championship in 2007 and the boys team in 2012.\nIn 2015, Aaberg also led his Math Club students to earn a Class II Math Bowl first-place finish at UNL Math Day, one of his proudest accomplishments.\n\u201cI took 49 students and four adults on the 400-mile trip to Lincoln,\u201d said Aaberg, who has been the math department chair since 2012. \u201cThis marks the fourth year we have taken roughly 50 of our students to the math contest. In 2006, my first year at Scottsbluff High, I took four students in a Crown Victoria. The math contest has become an annual highlight of students\u2019 experience at Scottsbluff, due in part to many people involved with Noyce.\u201d\nAaberg, who is active in several professional organizations, including the NATM, NCTM, the Nebraska Council on Teacher Education and the Scottsbluff Education Association, has taught almost every course at Scottsbluff. Currently, he teaches AP Statistics, Precalculus/Trigonometry, Geometry, and a STEM course he authored in 2008 titled \u201cMathematical Theory and Problem Solving,\u201d which is an elective math course where the students prepare for contest mathematics and do project-based learning.\nPreviously, he has served as the Scottsbluff building coordinator for English Language Learners and the High Ability Learners as well as National Honor Society (NHS) sponsor, during which he installed a community service requirement for NHS inductees. He has helped select the district\u2019s elementary mathematics curriculum and has represented the district on the Teacher Principal Evaluation Revision Pilot.\nAaberg did not begin his college years in teacher education. He started out in chemical engineering, but he found he did not have a passion for it. The influence of two math teachers he had while growing up led Aaberg to change paths. He also had enjoyed playing school as a child, using his brother, Sean, as his first \u201cstudent.\u201d\nOver the past few years, Aaberg said he has learned that leadership is rarely about position and more about empowering others. He has enjoyed traveling around the state to observe the classroom teaching of the other fellows and has taken the lead on building connections between them.\nDuring the 2014 Midwest Regional Noyce Connections Conference in Omaha in October, the Nebraska MTFs in attendance were sitting in a circle between sessions, sharing ideas. The group agreed it would be beneficial to have an easy way to continue to share ideas with one another after the conference. Aaberg pitched an idea for a Sunday night Twitter chat, and with that, #noycechat was off and running.\nThese weekly chats during the school year are usually moderated by Aaberg, but guests are welcome to come up with a theme and questions and lead the discussion. All Midwest Noyce personnel are invited to participate. Aaberg uses Storify to archive #noycechat, which can be read at https://storify.com/ShelbyAaberg.\nAaberg said the Noyce program has shown him that he is not alone in his craft and that resources are out there to empower him to do better for his students.\n\u201cThe late night conversations with Dan Schaben and Jason Vitosh, the summers we roomed together at UNL and stayed up all hours working on mathematics problems for our Noyce graduate courses, were spectacular,\u201d Aaberg said. \u201cI have gained lifetime friends, colleagues I can trust, colleagues in front of which I can remove my professional armor and be a vulnerable, imperfect teacher doing the best I know how.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "El Papa extiende su mano a M\u00e9xico: con el nombramiento del primer santo ind\u00edgena, el pont\u00edfice espera refrenar p\u00e9rdida de seguidores\nMEXICO CITY -- Pope John Paul II arrived here Tuesday night for a three-day visit expected to draw as many as 8-million people into the streets of the capital.\nDespite his poor health and the risks posed by Mexico City's polluted air, the pope seems determined to make his fifth visit to this deeply religious nation one of his most memorable.\nMany Mexicans see John Paul's return as a farewell. But for the Vatican it has a strategic importance in the rivalry with Protestant churches that are winning converts in this Catholic stronghold.\nThat may explain why the pope has chosen this moment to canonize the first indigenous saint, Juan Diego, who is credited with seeing and speaking with a vision of the Virgin Mary, or Our Lady of Guadalupe as she is known, in 1531.\nThe pope will also beatify two indigenous town leaders from the state of Oaxaca who were martyred for their faith. On a stopover in Guatemala on Tuesday, John Paul canonized a missionary noted for his work among that country's indigenous people.\nThe pontiff's mission is aided by recent political change in Mexico. Since his last visit in 1999, the anticlerical Institutional Revolutionary Party, which kept church and state strictly apart during its 71-year rule, has been replaced by the pro Catholic National Action Party headed by President Vicente Fox, a conservative Catholic.\nMexico's antireligious laws, which barred outdoor religious ceremonies and forbade priests from wearing clerical garb in the street, are gone.\nWith an estimated 87-million Catholics in a population of 100-million, Mexico has more Catholics than any nation but Brazil. But inroads by Protestant evangelical groups among the country's 11-million indigenous inhabitants, mostly in southern Mexico, have been a cause of concern among church leaders. Mexico also hosts the world's second largest communities of Masons and Jehovah's Witnesses, with a combined 2.5-million members.\nAnd among Mexican Catholics themselves, only 40 percent are observant. Across the region, church statistics indicate as many as 2,000 Catholics are abandoning the church every day.\nBut some critics have questioned the Vatican's strategy and the way local bishops have handled the trip.\nReligious and indigenous scholars also reject the existence of Juan Diego, saying the church's official version is not supported by any documentary evidence.\n\"When the pope canonizes Juan Diego, he will have elevated to sainthood the hero of a religious work of fiction,\" argues David Brading, an expert on Mexican history at Cambridge University who has written a book disputing the story of Our Lady of Guadalupe.\nEven devotees of Juan Diego dispute his origins, with some saying he was a poor Chichimeca Indian peasant and others that he was the grandson of an Aztec noble.\nFueling doubts, the man given the task in 1947 of restoring Juan Diego's cloak, on which the now famous image of the Virgin appeared, revealed for the first time this week that the image was not the result of a miracle. Instead, he said the image had clearly been painted by human hand.\nThis only confirmed a 1999 study by archaeological microbiologist Leoncio Garza Valdes from the University of Texas at San Antonio. After examining the cloak, supposedly made of sacklike cloth, he discovered it was a much finer material with three superimposed paintings. The principal work is believed to have been done by an indigenous artist, Marcos Aquino, in 1556 -- 25 years after Juan Diego's alleged vision -- and is a copy of the Virgin of Extremadura, brought from Spain by conquistadors.\n\"For the Vatican Juan Diego is not an end in himself,\" said Jorge Erdely, a Mexican theologian and editor of a religious magazine. \"The problem is this: If Juan Diego didn't exist then the miracle of Tepeyac didn't happen,\" he said, referring to the hill where Our Lady of Guadalupe is said to have appeared before Juan Diego.\nThe Virgin of Guadalupe is crucial to the Vatican's efforts to hold back the Protestant tide, as well as extend the church's message to an estimated 20-million Mexicans living in the United States.\nThe pope, a devotee of Guadalupe, declared her to be the church's official \"Patron of Americas\" in a ceremony to announce a new era of evangelization during his last visit to Mexico in 1999.\nThe Basilica of Tepeyac, where her image on Juan Diego's cloak hangs over the altar, is the second most visited Catholic shrine after St. Peter's in Rome.\n\"The Virgin of Guadalupe is part of a strategy to revive symbols of popular fervor in the Americas,\" Erdely said. \"It's basically a marketing tool.\"\nThat strategy may explain an otherwise baffling Vatican decision to alter the official indigenous image of Juan Diego to give him a more European look, with lighter skin and a full beard. Critics say the new image bears a stronger likeness to the Spanish conquistador, Hernan Cortes, than local Indians who generally have only wispy facial hair.\nCritics say the \"Euro-Diego\" was designed to please wealthy Mexican Catholics who found the idea of praying to the image of a humble Indian peasant distasteful.\nAccording to Erdely and other experts, the Vatican has gone to extraordinary lengths to promote Juan Diego's canonization in order to preserve the centerpiece of its strategy for the Americas.\nThough Juan Diego is not the first imaginary person to be made a saint, previous cases date to earlier times when the process of canonization was less strict.\nCurrent Vatican procedures require proof of existence beyond a reasonable doubt. \"In this case it's worse,\" Erdely said. \"History isn't silent. There's a lot of information contrary to his existence.\"\nThat is why for years, and as recently as 1995, the Vatican office of Congregation of Saints, which handles the process of canonization, rejected the case of Juan Diego.\nThe weakness of Juan Diego's claim is also recognized by the Vatican's failure so far to classify the miracle of Tepeyac according to its five-tier scale of credibility.\nEven so, Mexicans appear prepared to put faith before reason. Opinion polls show support for Juan Diego remains strong. In one, 66 percent of Catholics said they believed in his existence. In another, however, 46 percent said they would not pray to the new saint.\n\"I don't care what anyone says,\" said Petra Toto, 54, as she accompanied her son in-law crawling on his hands and knees up the steps to the shrine of Guadalupe on Sunday in fulfilment of a promise to the Virgin. The man, Ernesto Uvaldo, 25, made the pledge when his wife nearly died in childbirth in June.\nDespite welcoming the pope's recognition of the indigenous faithful, some Indian leaders are not happy with the handling of the visit.\nIndigenous groups in Oaxaca say the two supposed Zapotec martyrs of 1700 were in fact traitors not worthy of beatification. The two men were decapitated by fellow villagers after they informed Spanish colonial rulers that members of the community were practicing pagan rituals.\nSpanish officials later took out their revenge on the village, decapitating 15 men and staking their bodies by the roadside as a warning.\nOthers have also complained that politicians are hogging the guest list for today's ceremony while indigenous leaders have been left out in the cold.\nAn indigenous leader for the supposed Chichimeca descendants of Juan Diego complained this week in Mexican newspapers that no one from his community had been invited.\n\"They have taken advantage of the canonization so they can get in front of the TV cameras and appear as good Catholics,\" said Aurelio Quevedo, a Chichimeca leader.\nT\u00edtulo Original: Pope reaches out to Mexico.

        "raw_content": "Washington, DC \u2013 The Rural Community Assistance Partnership, Inc. (RCAP) has received $500,000 in funding from the U.S. Department of Agriculture Rural Development\u2019s Water and Environmental Programs to provide training and technical assistance, onsite repairs, and utility management advice for rural water and wastewater utilities impacted by the 2017 hurricane season. RCAP has been on the ground providing technical assistance to rural communities affected by hurricanes since the storms hit, and this funding will allow the RCAP network to expand that work.\n\u201cEnsuring safe drinking water has proven to be a critical first step in rebuilding the small Texas communities ravaged by Hurricane Harvey at the end of August 2017,\u201d explained Ines Polonius, CEO of Communities Unlimited. \u201cOnce critical community backbone infrastructure -- a town\u2019s water and waste water systems -- is back in place and functioning properly, families can begin to rebuild their lives in the place they call home.\u201d\nWith this funding, RCAP will assist rural communities, borrowers, and small water systems in Texas, the Southeast US, Puerto Rico, and the US Virgin Islands in their recovery from the recent hurricanes. RCAP regional partners including the Southeast Rural Community Assistance Project (SERCAP), Communities Unlimited (CU), and RCAP Solutions will assist small utilities to complete damage assessments and disaster technical assistance work plans, apply for Federal Emergency Management Administration (FEMA) disaster programs, file insurance recovery claims, and update existing Security Vulnerability Assessments and Emergency Response plans.\n\u201cOur work in Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands is in higher demand than ever before.\u201d says Karen A. Koller, CAE, President and CEO of RCAP Solutions. \u201cThe increased funding provided by the disaster recovery grants will allow RCAP Solutions to provide additional vital technical assistance and services to those in desperate need of safe, clean drinking water as we assist in the rebirth of those communities.\u201d\nRural communities of 10,000 or less impacted by natural disasters are often the last to get assistance. This grant will provide RCAP the opportunity to provide long-term technical assistance to communities in need of basic capacity building expertise in immediate response to the hurricanes that impacted their communities.\n\u201cThe funds awarded to the SERCAP region for disaster recovery will assist our communities impacted by the devastating 2017 hurricane season,\u201d said Hope F Cupit, CPA, President & CEO of SERCAP. \u201cSERCAP is committed to rebuilding small communities in Florida during the long-term period of recovery.\u201d\nRural Community Assistance Partnership (RCAP) is a national network of six regional non-profit organizations working to ensure that rural and small communities throughout the country have access to safe drinking water and sanitary wastewater disposal. The RCAP network provides a variety of programs to accomplish this goal, including direct training and on the ground technical assistance.

        "raw_content": "A scientific study from the German University in Mainz, has come up with frightening but interesting results: Prof. Dr. Klaus Heumann from the University in Mainz, the inventor of the newly patented method of analysis, has found an alarming concentration of up to 1,400 micro grams of methyl-mercury in one kilogram (2.2 lbs) of blue shark steak. That means that a normal portion of 250 grams could contain 350 micrograms of the deadly poison. The legal limit, set by the toxicology department of the EPA, is 0.1 microgram per kilogram of body weight. A person weighing 155 lbs would therefore get 50 times the legal amount in one single portion of shark steak. The legal amount being 7 micrograms.\nShark meat is sold in the US either as \u201cblue shark steak\u201d, \u201cmako steak\u201d, \u201csteakfish\u201d, \u201cgray fish\u201d, \u201cwhite fish\u201d or \u201ccape steak\u201d.\nInorganic mercury is converted into biologically active methyl-mercury by microbes that live on the bottom of the ocean. It is then concentrated in the bodies of fish, where it never dissolves. Since sharks eat a lot of fish in their relatively long life span, they carry a very highly concentrated amount of methyl-mercury in their bodies, which also does not dissolve during their very long lifetime.\n\u201cBetween 1953 and 1965 over a hundred adult men and women developed symptoms of central nervous system disorders such as ataxia, alterations in gait, tremors, altered sight and sensation. In 1955 near the Minamata Bay area of Kyushu, Japan, there was a large influx of cases of severe neurological disorders in newborn children. There were cases of cerebral palsy, some children were diplegic and others were tetraplegic. They were all mentally handicapped; some villages had 6 \u2013 12% of their newborns affected. Together, these disorders are now known as Congenital Minamata Syndrome. In 1959, it was found that mercury was being dumped into the bay by a plant of the Chisso Corporation.\n\u201cMehtyl-mercury is a killer\u201d, says Prof Dr. Herman Kruse from the University in Kiel, \u201cit is one of the biologically most active and dangerous poisons for humans. It works like a Trojan Horse, which can easily work its way through all safety barriers of the human body. Something that most other poisons cannot do as easily.\u201d\nMethyl-mercury damages the brain and other organs of the poisoned body. Even the diaplacental barrier, the dividing mechanism between a mother\u2019s blood and that of an embryonic fetus cannot stop it and that will lead to intra uterine methyl-mercury poisoning.\nIt can also result in kidney damages, influence fertility, and in higher doses even be fatal. In the last 30 years Minamata Disease has claimed at least 3,000 lives, mostly through consumption of fish, poisoned with methyl-mercury. There are probably a lot more deaths that could be contributed to methyl-mercury but the testing methods have never been as accurate as the one, which has now been developed in Germany.\nThe German organization \u201cSharkproject\u201d has initiated this new study by Prof. Dr. Heumann and has published it on August 20th, 2005.",

        "raw_content": "You are here: Home / General / The Price\nEvery now and then I am reminded about what is essential in our elder law practice. I so often get lost in the technicalities of legal work that I sometimes forget what may be my most important role. That role I believe is to share my experiences with our clients about what other families have done when faced with the decline in health of a family member. What I often discuss with caregivers is that their problems are not unique to them but are universal. Many new clients come to me with a sense that their story is unusual or unique and that it may be too difficult to even address. A story in this months\u2019 issue of Time magazine was incredibly powerful and a reminder to me that I, as an elder law attorney, have a unique role when brought in to assist a family in transition. The times story concerned the author\u2019s failed attempts to assist her sibling in caring for a ailing parent. The story reminded me of my own family and of the families that I see daily. See So who helps mom?\nJust this week I talked with a daughter who felt the need to tell me that her elderly mother\u2019s loss of weight was not the fault of her or of her sister. She explained that she lived in another state, a thousand miles away but kept in constant contact. Her sister, who had nine (9) children of her own, not only took care of her kids but looked after her mother. Her mother lived alone but they not only helped her themselves but chose what they felt was a good aide. They never touched mom\u2019s money unless it was for mom. Despite their good intentions, mom had the invariable problems that illness and aging bring. There were minor injuries and a few ambulance calls. A \u201chelpful\u201d friend thought that the aide was not providing good care and, rather than talking to the daughters, reported the case to the Area Agency on Aging. The Agency visited and found nothing wrong. They asked for an application to be signed so that the family could get \u201chelp.\u201d The aide, who was quickly losing the ability and skill to keep up with mom\u2019s condition was let go. Mom was admitted to a respite facility to enable the daughters to find another caregiver.\nMom never wanted to go to a nursing home. Her daughters promised her that she wouldn\u2019t. They were doing their best to keep their promise. Mom\u2019s attorney and friend couldn\u2019t intervene due to his own age and retirement. The respite social worker was asking questions. How did this happen? Did you supervise the caretaker? Your mom is too thin? Your mother shouldn\u2019t go home. She should be in a nursing home. If you don\u2019t cooperate, you could be liable. They called me in desperation. What can we do? We have a Power of Attorney. Can we take her home? Are we in trouble? Can we really be held liable for this?\nI gave them the advice that I often give \u2013 \u201cbelieve it or not this all is pretty normal and we see it all the time.\u201d They were aware that what they were doing was not an easy task but they were not aware of how common their problems were. The care of an aging parent is difficult if not impossible. There are plenty of people who will be there to second guess if something goes wrong. I tell people that the kids or caregivers who come to my office always have good intentions. Every one of them feels the need to explain that they don\u2019t care about money. They care about their parent. They all are conflicted about intervening. They want mom to have her dignity and her independence. In many cases, they themselves are hampered and cannot see the reality of the situation. They do not want to lose mom or dad or their family. There is often a caregiver child living with mom or dad or near their home and there are often kids who move away. I tell them about my own mother and my own sister and how difficult it was not to be nearby and the price I still pay for not being there. I still have conflicts about it.\nWhen I was in college we watched the play \u201cThe Price\u201d by Arthur Miller in Family Psychology class. The play had a significant impact on me since my own father had recently died. The play is about two brothers coming together to clean up their father\u2019s home after his death. One brother was a caretaker who stayed at home. He was a policeman and struggled financially. He cared for his father but felt he had missed some opportunities that he might have taken if not for his commitment to his father. The other brother left home early, attended medical school and became a successful doctor and owner of several nursing homes. One lost the opportunity to be in his father\u2019s life. The other lost his independence and the ability to claim his professional and financial goals. Both paid a price for their choices and both were conflicted about it.\nI tell this story to my caretaker clients to help them to try and unite and work together for the care of a loved one. Whether you stay or go, you are to a certain extent, built and ultimately perhaps, limited by your particular role in your family. I remind our caretakers that this may be the most difficult family event they will ever face. I tell them that it is faced by almost all families. If I am speaking to the one who stayed, I tell them not to assume that a sibling who is far away does not care. I tell them about our experiences with caretakers who are far from home. We see conflict and guilt and therefore a certain level of defensiveness about discussions about care. A casual question from an interviewer from Department of Aging becomes an accusation. An innocent application becomes an admission of failure. I tell them that this is normal, it happens all the time. And money, this is the most volatile of topics. I sometimes joke that I am going to hang a sign in my office that says \u201cI know you are not doing it for the money.\u201d That is how \u201cnormal\u201d it is to have these conflicts. I told my new client with the thin mother that what she and her sister were doing was not only appropriate but bordering on heroic. It is easy to focus on the failings and ignore the accomplishments. It is hard to intervene in a parent\u2019s life without feeling that you are imposing. And most time the parent fights intervention because they themselves are afraid of admitting defeat. Although, once they do they usually relax greatly and do better because they don\u2019t have to \u201cfake-it\u201d anymore.\nThere is no road map, but the children who take the time to seek our counsel are showing that they are working to understand what is needed and what is proper. The kids who abuse their parents and run off with their money never come to our office. We have seen hundreds of families. We have seen many in tough circumstances and look to help them with perspective by telling them what other families have done. We often know when a course of action will actually hurt rather than help a situation. I often tell our new clients that they can relax. That is what I told the sisters. You are doing the right thing. It is not easy. Don\u2019t be too defensive. Work together. Keep communication open. Let everyone know what is happening. Surprises are not good. There will be problems. You will be questioned. You know your mom and you are trying to do what is best for her. It\u2019s normal, relax. It\u2019s the price we pay for being in a family.",

        "raw_content": "FOLLOWING THE PAST\nSunny days in early May. It's hot during the day though a spring cold can still be felt at night. It hasn't rained for several days. And the passing cars raise clouds of dust on the road. For a whole week our minibus will be driving in northwestern Belorussia. We visit cities and villages that used to be predominantly populated by Jews. We are trying to chase after time that's already gone. It's impossible to do \u2013 what's gone is gone forever.\nThe expedition is organized by the Museum of the History of Polish Jews. We've got an interesting and competent company here. Andrzej Tshetsinsky, professor of the Lyublin University specializing in Jewish culture; Krzysztof Belyavsky, the museum's employee who is also in charge of well-functioning of the website \u201cVirtual Shtetle\u201c; a hystorian from Minsk Alya Sidarovich; polish documentalists, employees of Grodno museums, postgraduate and undergraduate students of the Grodno University, and I, a journalist who joined them. We are one and a half Jews for ten persons. Half of Krzysztof and I. It might have been strange some time ago for a non-Jew to study Jewish history. And not without success, I should say. But how on earth could we possibly find a Jew in Poland or Belorussia if almost all of them had left the country? I think it's not the scientists' origin that matters but the objectivity of the results achieved. And I wrote about \u201cone and a half Jew\u201c neither because I read the Isaac Babel's story about \u201cone and a half Hebe\u201c nor for some other solid reason, but just because there were a couple of jokes about it in the bus. Those were not mean or prejudiced jokes \u2013 just jokes for the sake of a joke.\nI joined the expedition in Rakov; they had already visited the Grodno Oblast before. In Rakov they finally stayed for a night, and there I was the following morning. It was not difficult to get there. It's only in a 40 km distance from Minsk on the route for Vilnius.\nI was waiting at the bus stop near the gallery-museum of Yanushkevich brothers.\nRakov. Yanushkevich gallery.\nWe were met by Felix Yanushkevich, a well-known Belorussian artist and restorer. I saw his works in museums and picture galleries. In the 1980s these were canvases painted in the Socialist Realism style but with years his art transformed.\nApart from creative spirit he possesses an entrepreneurial one and, combined together (aren't all entrepreneurs artists in a way?) these two qualities brought interesting results.\nYanushkevich opened a gallery-museum in Rakov. Before the World War II there was a Jewish house in this very place at 1, Vilenskaya Street. A baker Yosel Krasnoselsky, whose family died in the Rakov ghetto, lived in this house. Before the ghetto was demolished the Krasnoselskys had hidden all their belongings in barrels and buried them near the house. They hoped to come home later and dig out their things. But Yosel and his family died in the ghetto.\nAfter the war those hidden barrels were found during construction works in the house yard. The belongings of the vanished family were carefully preserved, not a single thing was thrown away.\nWhen Felix became the owner of the house he faced it with brick and made an interesting exterior design. For example, the gallery-museum\u2019s name on concrete panels is written in Belorussian and transcribed in Latin letters.\nThe museum occupies all the floors and the yard of the house. The books in Yiddish left by Yosel Krasnoselsky are exhibited there, including Maxim Gorky\u2019s novels. There\u2019s also a lot of household items: kitchen utensils, bottles, a kerosene lamp, drug pots, various boxes, a chest of drawers \u2013 I think all those things are international. Polish books are preserved as well.\nPages of Jewish books.\nJewish books preserved by Yanushkevich.\nIn the basement there are several helmets. During the war they were protecting the heads of German soldiers.\nOn the second floor there is Felix\u2019s workroom - with paintings on the wall, a canvas on the stretcher, tubes of paint, an easel, a sketch-book, and brushes. The guests of the gallery are curious to see an artist at work while he\u2019s telling about what he\u2019s painting. A good talk can even lead to some visitor\u2019s buying a painting. Felix is a great story-teller. If necessary, he can speak Belorussian, Polish or Russian.\nOn the third floor, looking through the window at the street, Felix told us about the former inhabitants of Rakov, mentioning that the family of an honored Belarusian artist Mai Danzig\u2019s mother lived nearby.\nIt\u2019s a pleasure listening to Felix. The tour of the Yanushkevich\u2019s gallery starts and finishes on the first floor.\n\u2026A long table \u2013 the same ones used to be placed in taverns. The benches also resemble those of a tavern. Old but solid furniture. Our expedition had both breakfasts and dinners there. The food is simple and plain but delicious. Felix says that his wife cooks it. A shtof-bottle of samogon \u201con the house\u201d appears on the table, just like in good old times. It\u2019s a beautiful old bottle, \u201cjust a little, to keep the company\u201d as the saying goes. I tried it and it was good. Jam and pies were served for dessert. The kids of Felix are also here playing piano and clarinet. Not Van Cliburn yet but they have a lot of time ahead. Interesting conversations in a good company \u2013 we all had a great time. A wonderful combination of a Jewish tavern and a szlachta house.\nNaturally it costs some money. But who said we should not pay for pleasures? You may believe me that I\u2019m not telling about this place because the Yanushkevich gallery-museum paid me for an advertisement.\nRakov. The street of synagogues and yeshiva.\nThen we had a brief tour of the town. We have specific interests, so Felix accompanies us to a Jewish cemetery where the history of Rakov is engraved on the tombstones. So many different people are buried here: Torah connoisseurs and commons, watermen and balagulas, righteous men and yentzers, local philosophers and those who were considered lunatics (sometimes they were one and the same person).\nA stone staircase leads to the cemetery gates and to a pine tree hill behind them. Jewish cemeteries are usually located on a hill, the oldest tombs being placed on the top.\nRakov. The gates of the Jewish cemetery.\nThe cemetery gates are padlocked. \u201cWho would come here?,\u201d says Felix. \u201cThere are no Jews left in Rakov, and those who come to visit the graves of their relatives take the key that is kept by trustworthy people.\u201d\nKeeping the cemetery locked is a necessary measure: the old tombstones used to be taken for making house bases or for road construction works. People made out excuses saying that no one will ever visit these graves. Who would, indeed, if almost all of Rakov\u2019s Jewish population was executed by fascists during the war. And those who miraculously managed to escape went to other cities, and more often to other countries.\nAbout twenty years ago I met an old man who used to live in Rakov before the war. He came from Israel where he had come to live in early 1990s with his children and grandchildren. The old man cried telling about his hometown. He said that he often sees it in his dreams and that he\u2019d never seen a more beautiful place in his whole life. He was a partisan during the war, and when it was over he returned to his hometown.\n\u201cThen why did you leave? \u201d I asked him.\n\u201cYou cannot live on memories\u201d, he said in a shaking voice. \u201cEvery day I would come to the place where my family was executed, and I cried. If I continued like this, I would go crazy.\u201d\nI don\u2019t know if that old man is still alive but our conversation came to my mind when we reached the gates of the Jewish cemetery.\nFelix told us that in the 80s, when there was still no fence here local people would pass through the cemetery walking on the graves on their way to the marketplace and back, to take a shortcut. And on the place where now stands the monument to the Jews of Rakov murdered by the fascists during the war kids used to play football.\n\u201cI told the kids, \u2018Don\u2019t play football, have respect for the dead resting here\u2019, and they replied, \u2018OK, they\u2019ll be our fans.\u201d\nA sad, black humor. The fence around the cemetery was built in the beginning of the 1990s, when the \u201ciron curtain\u201d put by the Soviets fell and former residents now living in Israel, the USA, and other countries started to come.\nIt\u2019s written on the plaque at the gates that the cemetery was fixed up by the descendants of Barney and Lea Gurvitz families living in the South African Republic and by Aaron Gringolts from Israel.\nWe read the words on one of the cemetery\u2019s matzevas: \u201cHere lies our dear mother, who left us so suddenly. Shoshana-Elka Gringolts, Abraham\u2019s daughter. Deceased on Shevat 16, \u2026\u201d; unfortunately we couldn\u2019t make out the year of her death. The locals of the same name were usually relatives. I think Aaron Gringolts who took part in the cemetery\u2019s restoration belongs to Shoshana-Elka\u2019s family.\nAt the Jewish cemetery.\nWe saw the year 1921 written in letters as 5681, according to the Jewish calendar, on one of the old tombstones that was used to build the fence.\nIn all likelihood this tombstone was part of the old pre-war fence. Most part of it was stolen and this one stayed to remind us that back in 1921, unquiet and shaken by war, the Jewish community of Rakov built this fence around the cemetery.\nWe were told that there should be a passage in the fence somewhere but after searching for 5 minutes we decided to get over the fence, luckily all members of our expedition looked rather sporty.\nThe matzevas at the Rakov\u2019s cemetery are placed in two large groups. Pines and grass grow between them. Probably this is how the burials were structured but more likely the matzevas were stolen from here. And the trees stayed the silent and only witnesses of those times when the Rakov's cemetery was still functioning and the old Jews were coming here to take care of their future grave site.\nOn the spot between two groups of matzevas there is a monument to 112 Jews murdered by the Nazis and their allies.\nIt was only after returning from the expedition that I read in the Internet that the Jewish cemetery in Rakov is one of the oldest in Belorussia. It was founded back in 1664.\nOnly around 700 tombstones have been preserved. The oldest surviving grave is dated 1767.\nThe most recent graves date back to the 1960s. We did not find the oldest matzeva, we could only find the ones as old as the end of the 18th century, and professor Andrzej Tshetsinsky read what was written on them.\nIn 1960s this cemetery was used as a burial place for the Jews living their final days in Rakov and for those brought from Minsk, whose parents had been buried here and who requested in their will to be buried beside them.\nRakov is an old settlement that was given the status of a shtetl in 1579. A Dominican catholic convent appeared here in 1686, and a Uniate Basilian one was built in 1702.\nMost probably the Jews started to settle here in the times of the Rzeczpospolita, in the first quarter of the 17th century. They were farmers of taxes, drinking and salt fees, land tenants, and craftsmen. Pottery and tiles from Rakov were well known far beyond the place.\n2.168 Jews lived here in 1897 making up 59,5% of the settlement's population.\nThis place was also widely known for its two famous horse fairs. A big market was held on Mondays. The \u201cprivilegies\u201d for holding fairs and trading were granted to the shtetl by the King August III (in the middle of the 18th century), these \u201cpatents\u201d were used until the war.\n\u201cIn the town of Rakov there's a well-developed manufacture of winnow mills, wooden threshers and hay cutters sold in the northwestern guberniyas as well as in Courland and Estland. The pottery and tile production was wide-spread in the towns of Zembin, Ivetets, Rakov, whose traders sold their earthenware and green tiles locally.\u201c1\nIn the interwar period Rakov belonged to Poland. It was a time of the town's \u201cgolden age\u201c. After the Riga peace treaty of 1921 a new life started for Rakov which became a border Poland town and the smugglers' \u201ccapital\u201c.\nThere lived a pani Fedorovicheva in Rakov. She was addressed as \u201cmost illustrious pani\u201c, having deserved this honorary title thanks to her fumatory. Her hams and smoked meat products were sold to Berlin, Dresden, Warsaw. The famous Krakow ham originated from Rakov up to 1939!\nIn the '20s-'30s of the 20th century Rakov roared with foxtrots. The orchestras played at nearly every restaurant. And there were around a hundred of them, always full of clients. The town's 134 shops never suffered from the lack of customers as well. There were even brothels in Rakov. The gold was transferred back and forth through the border, and part of it remained in the town. People say that buried treasures were found here even after the war.\nLocal craftsmen produced ceramics widely known in the region.\nOn the old pictures you can see a two-storeyed red brick trading house in place of the present-day local council building. The old residents remember how difficult it was to take it to pieces during the post-war subbotniks. You can't help but be surprised looking at those old pictures that somehow introduce you to the images of a different world \u2013 big houses, beautiful balconies. Stores, shops and restaurants in the central street. Some of them were destroyed by time, other ones \u2013 by the \u201cbuilders of the new life\u201c. But it's during the war that Rakov's architecture suffered the most losses. It was burnt almost completely. Ilya Ehrenburg, who visited this place in the first days after his release, wrote about it.\nStarting from September, 1939 Rakov was part of the Soviet Republic of Belorussia. A year before, in 1938, the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of BSSR gave up the term \u201cshtetl\u201c and the settlements were since ordinarily called \u201curban-type settlement\u201c. The word \u201cshtetl\u201c had a warm feeling in it while the \u201curban-type settlement\u201c felt so indifferently. And what is more, Rakov was reduced to a village. Later, though, he became an urban-type settlement as it was before.\nThere were four synagogues in Rakov before 1941. Now there are none. One of the former synagogue buildings remained though at 32, Pionerskaya Street. It used to house the yeshiva and the synagogue. After the war there was an integrated industrial complex here, and now there's a company producing doors and windows. The house is rebuilt, it's covered with siding and all of its windows are plastic now. When we walked to this building the neighbors came asking us \u201cWhat are you doing here?\u201c We answered that we just wanted to take pictures of the former synagogue building. They exchanged surprised looks and asked us in disbelief: \u201cWas it really a synagogue?\u201c\nOnly one of the old people who was born right after the war said: \u201cYes, I guess it was\u201c.\nNot only synagogues but also other religious buildings and structures vanished. In the '50s and '60s six churches were demolished in the Rakov parish. It's then that the wonderworking icon of the Holy Mother disappeared. The local vandals burnt down the wooden chapel in the end of the 1980s. Latterly the parishioners built a new, stone chapel on the sacred well. The Orthodox and Catholic churches are being restored or rebuilt now. Not synagogues, for there are no one left in Rakov to build or restore them for.\nThe old people who were born here before the war can still understand Yiddish, though they almost forgot the language; they even know Jewish songs. Rufina Bolotnik (nee Rusetskaya-Matskevich) attempted to sing something in Yiddish. More than 70 years have passed. The memories of most events have faded.\n928 Jews resided in Rakov before the war.\nThe most horrific period began in the summer of 1941, when Rakov was occupied by the German-fascist army.\nOn the very first day of the occupation the Wehrmacht police was formed and the robberies of the Jewish property began. Among those polizei who \u201cdistinguished\u201c the most during the robberies were Anton Shidlovsky, Yan Tsibulsky, Vladislav Kuryan, Yan Lukashevich, Yan Aleshko, Vasily Yatskevich.2\nThe first execusions of the Jews are mentioned in the reports of the head of police security and SD, sent to Germany from the USSR. The report #36 dated 28 July 1941 read as follows:\n\u201c...the actions were performed in Rakov, located in about 40 km from Minsk, as well as in the forests to the north of the Minsk-Borisov-Krupki line. During these actions were liquidated 58 Jews, functionary communists, agents, criminals and soldiers out of uniform who were suspected in connections with groups of partisans. Besides, 12 Jewish women were shot down for being communists' propagandists during the war with Poland.\u201c 3\nIn August of 1941 the Jews of Rakov were concentrated in the ghetto. Horrific facts are mentioned in the book by Marat Botvinnik \u201cMonuments of the Genocide of the Jews of Belorussia\u201c, with reference to the archive documents.\n\u201cBloody executions of Jews in Rakov who had been living for ages in this quite place, were held from August 1941 till February 1942. During this period the Hitlerites and gendarmes drove all the Jews to the ghetto concentration camp, guarded thoroughly by local polizei and gendarms.\nOn August 14, 1941 the Hitlerites held the first execution of Jews. They took 45 persons, gave them spades, as if for works, and drove them to the forest in 2 km from the shtetl. There they made them dig holes and once the work was done, the Jews were ordered to lie in those holes face down, and the fascists shot all of them by machine guns.\u201c 4\nThe same scenario written by Berlin was used in many ghettos. At first they took the strong and respected men who were able to inspire people to revoke and lead them to the forest. Those men were killed the first. At various pretexts they were taken from the shtetl, usually at the pretext of construction or road works, and none of them ever returned.\n\u201cIn a week, on August 21, 1941 the Hitlerites detained the Jews walking to the shtetl on the Minsk-Rakov road. 14 persons were shot down at once, and others were driven to the Rakov ghetto.\u201c 5\nIn the first month of the occupation some Jews hoped that they would be able to live peacefully in shtetls and villages till the war is over, and that the fascists would not touch the civilians. So those who had relatives in the country went to stay with them, coming from one hell to another one.\nIn September 1941 a native of a farm at the Alekhnovichi station, Yasinsky, was appointed to the post of the police commander, and a man by the man of Survillo was made his assistant. They constantly demanded the Jews to give them their clothes and shoes, which were later presented to their lovers. After freeing Roslovskaya, the lover of Hendel, deputy Gebietcomissioner of Vileyka, a lot of furniture, kitchenware and personal belongings taken forcefully from the Jews were found in her barn.\nOn September 26, 1941 that very Hendel made the Jews to bring the Torah scrolls from the synagogue to the town square and ordered to burn them, while the Jewish girls were made dancing and singing \u201cHatikwa\u201c.\n\u201cOn September 29, 1941 (the Jewish New Year's Eve) the Hitlerites gathered a big group of Jews from the ghetto (men aged from 16 to 50), put them into cars and drove them to a forest in 2 km from Rakov. There they were made to dig holes. When that was done, the gendarmes counted 105 (112) men, made them lie in the holes face down and shot them by the order of P. Dobel. Then the drunk chasteners decided to have some fun. Those of the Jews who were left alive were taken back to the Rakov ghetto and forced to sing and dance. After the \u201cconcert\u201c all the Jews were ordered to lie face down and the chasteners began to shoot them at random. When the Hitler's cutthroats thought that the barber did not sing well enough they just chopped off his head with an axe.\u201c6\nWe went to the site of execution of those 105 (112) Jews by bus, taking the same route as those people doomed to die more than 70 years ago.\nWe were going on the road for Radashkevichi to the village of Buzuny. Stanislav Romanovich Supranovich was waiting for us there. He was 10 years old back in 1941.\nRakov. Witness to the execution of Jews\nStanislav Romanovich Supranovich .\nHe accompanied us to an old oak tree in the forest.\n- Here's the place where the Jews were executed, - says Stanislav Romanovich.\nThere is no monument or a memorial stone. The old tree itself is a sort of scary monument. As if the nature decided to mark this place. The lower branches intertwined and bent almost to the ground. There's a big moss-covered hollow in the trunk of the tree. The gnarly bark is blackened either by time or for some other reasons.\n- Three boys were herding cows and they saw the Jews being driven to the site of execution, - Stanislav Romanovich continues after a pause. - When they heard the shots they got scared and ran away. Coming back in a couple of hours they saw the sand... They were already buried...\nThere are fresh holes and pits dug near the oak tree. \u201cThe black diggers\u201c were looking for the \u201cJewish gold\u201c. They don't fear neither God nor people.\n- Two of the Jews managed to escape execution. - remembers Stanislav Romanovich Supranovich. - They lived at our farm, and later hid away in the balka forest. An old man and a woman... They left in about two months. What were their names? I wish I could remember. I never saw them since. I don't know if they survived the war. I knew Hayim, who survived the executions in Rakov. He lived in the shtetl after the war.\nRakov. Monument to the murdered Jews\nThe remains of the executed Jews were later reinterred at the Jewish cemetery.\nIn July 2005 a monument was erected here with the financial aid of the Lazarus Fund. There's a text in Belorussian, Yiddish and English engraved on the granite stone: \u201cTo the victims of Nazism. 112 Jews of Rakov village were massacred here in the fall of 1941\u201c.\nA horrific tragedy took place on February 4, 1942.\n\u201cThe police commander Nikolai Zenkevich ordered to all the remaining Jews to get ready for being transported to Minsk. When people gathered at the Kholodnaya synagogue they were ordered to put all their valuables aside and enter the synagogue. No one was let out, and those who tried to escape were killed by the Hitlerites. The doors and windows were shut tightly, the walls were poured with gasoline and set on fire. The kids who attempted to escape were taken at the point of the bayonets and thrown back on people's heads. Local polizie took most active part in this heinous massacre. In those moans and cries for help died the Jewish population of Rakov, 920 (950) persons in total, most of them women, kids and old men\u201c.7\nEven nowadays the old residents of Rakov remember this story told by their parents, saying that the smell of burnt human flesh stayed in the air for a month after the tragedy.\nThe Romanovskys family lived near the synagogue where the Jews were burnt.\nYadviga Romanovskaya still remembers that gruesome day.\n- My father and I saw it. When they locked the Jews in the synagogue, my father saw the rabbi who was walking toward the synagogue. My father said: \u201cWhere are you going? Your people are being killed there\u201c. And the rabbi replied: \u201cThe shepherd should be where his sheep are\u201c and went into the fire.\nThe Lithuanian police were real monsters...\nYadviga did not continue her story, she cried and went back into her house.\nThe document confirming this tragedy is kept in the National Archives of the Belarus Republic.\n\u201cOn 4.2.1942 a ghetto with 100 prisoners was liquidated in Rakov. The Jews from the ghetto began to incite the local population...\u201c8\nWhy only 100 shot ghetto prisoners are mentioned? How did the Jews incite the population? Did they just refuse to praise the occupants who were killing them? Or were they just saying that the fascists would be done sooner or later and that they would pay for the people's suffering?\nThe document kept at the Federal Archives of Koblenz (Germany) also testifies to the execution of 4 February 1942.\n\u201cOn the 4th of February a small group of security police and SD, under the orders of Security Police and SD, was sent to the shtetl of Rakov... It had the assignment to execute the Russian Jews who lived there. All the Jews \u2013 men, women, children \u2013 were kept under guard in one of the houses. They were taken from there to a nearby valley. Then they were divided into groups and shot in the back of the head. 100 persons were killed in total. The execution is mentioned in the report #168 of February 13, 1942.\u201c9\nRakov. The road to the site of Jews' burning.\nDid the fascists and their allies from the local polizei shot down the Jews in the nearby valley and burn them in the synagogue on the same day? Or maybe part of the Jews escaped from the synagogue and were shot in the vicinity of Rakov?\nIlya Ehrenburg visited Rakov on the next day after being freed, on July 4, 1944.\n\u201cIn Rakov, - he wrote in his book 'People, years, life' \u2013 I went to the senior priest of the local church, Ganusevich. He was sitting there, old, quiet, among the prayer books and faded photographs. He saw the Hitlerites set the house on fire. A desperate woman threw her child out the window; a \u201ctorch-bearer\u201c ran up, took the child indifferently, as if it were a char, and threw him back into the fire. The priest was shaking his head: \u201cI could not imagine that such heartless people exist on earth... They took an old priest from Kleban who was ill and could not walk, and tortured him to death...In Loras they gathered everyone at an Orthodox church and burnt it down... In Pershai they killed two priests. It's written in the Book: 'He reveals mysteries from the darkness and brings the deep darkness into light; he increases the nations, and destroys them: he enlarges the nations and guides them; He deprives the World's leaders of reason, and sends them wandering through a trackless waste.' I'm an old man, but how the young ones will live after this?..\u201c\n\u201cThe senior priest of the church Ganusevich, with whom I was talking to at length, told me about the massacre of Jews. He told about it in details. He had a toothache and was at a Jewish dentist's during the negotiations. The dentist thought that they would kill him. The Germans insisted that he should be kept alive until he filled out a tooth. The fascists, having fun, asked the locals how long it would take. If half an hour it's OK, if two hours, it's too much as they were in a hurry.\u201c\nIn spite of his age, the priest Ganusevich helped the doomed people and saved Jewish children.\n\u201cA nun Yekaterina, who was called Sister Katarzyna, gathered Jewish, Polish and Belarusian children together in Rakov. There was a lack of food at the orphanage, and Ganusevich, who was a friend of Katarzyna's, drove around the villages and begged people to take the orphan kids. They were converted into Catholic religion and it gave them a chance for staying alive.\u201c10\nWas Dora Sheivehman one of those saved kids? In the first days after his liberation Ilya Ehrenburg talked to her, together with a Soviet Army major. The girl was afraid to give her real name, surname and nationality. She insisted that she was Dasha Nesterenko, a Belarusian.\nI met people who felt the fear experienced in childhood for their whole lives. As a matter of fact, the Soviet power regularly reminded them of that fear \u2013 by the \u201cdoctors case\u201c, \u201cpassportless loafers\u201c, by antisemitic articles in the newspapers and difficulties with finding a job, and etc. These people did not want to remember the surnames of their parents and their nationality. And sometimes such memories were stronger than fear.\nOf course, the Jews took attempts to escape. We know about some of them. Genya Milshtein was found in the field after the massacre in Rakov, brought to the ghetto and thrown in the burning house.11\nOne of such episodes is described in the book by Leonid Smilovitsky \u201cThe catastrophe of the Jews of Belarus. 1941-1944\u201c (Tel-Aviv, 2000)\nIn February 1942 Abram Mazelev and Aizik Kagan were working in the forest when they learned about the massacre in Rakov. They fled to Kuchkuny where they were helped by a forester Konstantin Romanyuk who gave them food and warmed them but did not dare to let them stay. Abram and Aizik went to Gorodok and then to Radoshkovichi, where the chasteners were taking their action. Mazelev hid at an attic, and Kagan got caught and was promised life if he gave away all of his possessions. When the Hitlerites took all his valuables they shot him down. When they were coming up to the attic for Mazelev, he jumped down to the ground and feigned death. At darkness he fled to the forest where he hid until the spring of 1942. In the forest he met Abram Milshtein from Rakov and Hayim Persky from Volozhin. Hungry, they came to the village of Stary Rakov and asked for some food. The son of a peasant, whose door they knocked on, killed Mazelev, and Milshtein and Persky managed to escape. A peasant Milyashkevich agreed to hide Persky in a hiding place under the stove in his house. But Persky could not stand his sufferings, \u201cfell into melancholy\u201c and died in the hiding-place. Only Milshtein out of three of them survived: he found partisans and begged them to take him to their detachment, where he was fighting until the liberation of the Republic in July 1944.\u201c12\nAbram Davidovich Milshtein, born in 1908; fought in the partisan brigade named after Suvorov, in the territory of Baranovichi Oblast.13\nBrothers Daniel and Wolf Kaplan were hiding in February at a peasant they knew, but they were arrested following a denunciation. The day before the execution they escaped to the shtetl of Gorodok, getting frostbites on their feet, but they were not accepted there. Kaplans hid in the concentration camp of the Krasnoye shtetl, and then escaped to join the partisans. They were fighting in the detachment named after Stalin and demonstrated bravery. Their countryman Naum Moiseyevich Gringolts after the massacre in Rakov went from Gorodok to Lyuban passing through Vileyka, met the partisans and fought in the brigade named after Dovator of the detachment named after Sverdlov; and Tevel Gorbuz was among the partisans of Tchkalov brigade, the same brigade of the detachment #4 \u201cFor the Soviet Belarus\u201c where David Kaplan fought.\nAlexander Semyonovich Gurvich fought in the partisan brigade named after Chapayev and died in the battle with the fascists in 1943. He was 46 year old. Sofia Zhilinskaya was only 20. She fought in the partisan brigade \u201cShturmovaya\u201c. Mikhail Shnit, fighting in the brigade \u201cFor the Soviet Belarus\u201c was of the same age. Masha Isaakovna Gurvich, born in 1903, and Nehama Alexandrovna Gurvich fought in the 106th partisan brigade and died fighting.\n179 Jewish families of the Rakov shtetl died in total.14\n13 of those families had the name Botvinnik.15\n1050 Jews died in Rakov in the years of the Holocaust.16\nRakov. The monument on the place of the synagogue where the Jews were burnt alive.\nIn 1965 a monument was erected on the place of the Rakov synagogue with the words on it telling about this tragic day and innocent victims in Russian and Yiddish. The monument was made to resemble a Jewish tombstone. A tree with cut off brunches. Such monuments were traditionally placed at cemeteries, on the grave of the last member of a family \u2013 it meant that with his death the family went extinct.\nProfessor Andrzej Tshetsinsky said that he had encountered similar monuments at Catholic cemeteries...\nUri Finkel.\nHirsh Finkel. 1870.\nUri Finkel, a Jewish writer, theorist of literature and publicist, was born in Rakov and lived here before and after the war (1896, the Rakov shtetl, Minsk guberniya, - 1957, Minsk). He wrote in Yiddish, the language of his parents, the language of his childhood and youth. Uri was born in a big religious family and had a traditional education. His father Hirsch-Shlomo, the butcher, hoped that his firstborn would become a rabbi and Uri himself dreamt about it as a child.\nBut life had different plans on him. Starting from 1921 Uri Finkel worked at the publishing department of the Ministry of Education of BSSR. He was the editor of the first Jewish paper \u201cRusta\u201c of the Red Army and he edited the \u201cDi commune\u201c paper as well. He worked at the Jewish sector of the Academy of Sciences of Belarus, and later in Belarusian Jewish papers \u201cVeker\u201c and \u201cOktyaber\u201c. He became widely known for his books of the Jewish literature classics Mendele Mocher Sforim and Shalom Aleichem. In 1930-1938 he taught at Minsk Pedagogical Institute.\nHis parents continued to live in Rakov, on the territory of the \u201cbourgeois\u201c Poland, and for many years he did not have the possibility even to write to them. Only starting from September 1939, after Western Poland had been annexed to Belorussia, Uri Finkel who was father of 5 children and a famous writer at the time could visit his parents, brothers and sisters.\nLisa Finkel.\nElla Finkel.\nDuring the World War II Uri Finkel with his wife, son and youngest daughter was evacuated from Minsk, while his two elder daughters Tsilya and Gila, who came to Rakov to visit their grandfather not long before the German invasion, were burnt together with their granddad \u2013 the last rabbi of Rakov (after the Rakov rabbi died, the shochet Hirsch-Shlomo took on his duties). On the same day of 02 February 1942 the wife of Hirsch-Shlomo, Aavigal, was burnt alive in the synagogue with him, together with their daughters: Elka (born in 1906), Lifcha (born in 1910), Ella (1910) and Lisa (1912). They worked at a farmacy in Rakov; and their sons: Ichak (born in 1908) who worked as a teacher and Isaak (1907), who worked as a pharmacist like his sisters. Hirsch-Shlomo Finkel was 72 year old.\nAccording to the lists of Yad-Vashem there are 69 persons by the name of Finkel (Pinkel) among the executed Jews of Rakov.\nHirsch-Shloma Finkel kept an important historic document \u2013 the Pinkas of the Jewish community of Rakov that contained the notes taken from 1810 till 1913. It was written in Yiddish and covered all the main events in the life of the community and every Jewish family. Shortly before the war, Hirsch-Shlomo gave the Pinkas for keeping to his son Uri. Maybe he had some presentiments or just thought that the document should be kept at a safer place than at an old man's. When in the beginning of the war Uri had to leave Minsk he took the Pinkas with him as the most precious thing.\nAfter the war Uri Finkel, who mostly lived in Rakov, added the final chapter in Yiddish to the Pinkas, telling about the events of the recent decades. For meny years he kept this unique historic document in a hiding-place. After Uri Finkel's death the Pinkas of Rakov was transferred to the Archives of Israel.\nIt would be great to publish and read this document. I wonder if it's possible...\nThe monument to Ida Rosenthal is planned to be built in Rakov\nIda Rosenthal.\nOne more Jewish name returns to Belarus \u2013 this time it belongs to a woman who was engaged in making underware. This is Ida Rosenthal. A new attraction for tourists and local citizens may soon appear in Rakov. Severny Lane will be decorated with a sculptural composition dedicated to the inventer of bra. The initiative belongs to the creative workshop \u201cIsloch\u201c. The artists are ready to start working as soon as the necessary amount of money is raised.\n\u201cThe name of Ida Rosenthal is known all over the world in certain circles, that is why we should not forget her here in Belarus, where she comes from.\u201c - thinks Ales Bely. Ida Kaganovich was born on January 9, 1886 in a Jewish family in Rakov. Ida was the eldest of seven kids. At the age of 16 she went to Warsaw where she worked as a seamstress. After immigrating to the USA Ida found the job at a seemstress shop where, having listened to her clients' complaints about the uncomfortable lingerie, she decided to invent comfortable women's underware. By that time bras had been patented in many countries: in France in 1889 , in Germany in 1891, and in the USA in 1914. But they looked nothing like the present-day bras. It is Ida Rosenthal's ideas that made bras more comfortable: she patented different cup sizes and the breast band construction that allowed to adjust their length. - At those times it was not appropriate to discuss bras in public, - tells Ales Bely. - Maybe this is why only few people know about the author of this invention. In many sources the bra's inventor is simply called \u201can immigrant from Russia\u201c.\nAt the moment nothing in Rakov reminds of the famous compatriot. Most of her relatives died during the war. Those who survived left for other countries. - We have a monument dedicated to the victims of the Holocaust, - shares his opinion Ales Bely. - And I would like to have more cheerful monuments here as well. It's typical for all Belorussia: the Jewish culture is mostly reflected in the monuments in connection with tragic events. Of course we should never forget about them. But we also need some positive memorials connected with the Jewish culture. Our monument should remind of it. Two years ago the descendants of Ida Rosenthal visited Rakov. Many of them now live in the USA and Israel. The prototype of the monument is already designed \u2013 a sculpture in the form of a lantern with crystal elements will light the street. But the scale of the monument will depend on the amount of money we'll manage to raise. - If we could raise as much as 30-35 thousand dollars we would make a real piece of art, - says Vasily Rubtsov, the founder of the creative workshop \u201cIsloch\u201c in Rakov. - We would be able not only to build the monument but also to make the surrounding area more comfortable: pave the pathways, put the benches to make this place more convenient for both tourists and local residents.\nWe are planning to raise the money till the middle of 2014. We hope to engage as many indifferent people and organizations as possible. And in summer we will decide what to do, depending on the amount raised.\nThe main part of the composition will be made of bronze and black iron. The lantern will be decorated with two cups reminding of Ida Rosenthal's invention. If the image itself is not enough to understand its meaning, a plaque with the invention author's name will be placed there. - We are not afraid to use the crystal elements, - says Vasily. - I don't think anyone would dare to vandalize it. Besides, it's close to our workshop and this place is always crowded.\nAlexandra Parakhnya\n1 E. Ioffe, \"Pages from the History of the Jews of Belarus\", Minsk, 1996, p. 58\n2 L.

Developed in the 1960s by General Dynamics, it first entered service in 1967 with the United States Air Force. The Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) also ordered the type and began operating F-111Cs in 1973.\nThe F-111 pioneered several technologies for production aircraft, including variable-sweep wings, afterburning turbofan engines, and automated terrain-following radar for low-level, high-speed flight. Its design influenced later variable-sweep wing aircraft, and some of its advanced features have since become commonplace. The F-111 suffered a variety of problems during initial development and several of its intended roles, such as naval interception, with the F-111B, failed to materialize.\nUSAF F-111 variants were retired in the 1990s, with the F-111Fs in 1996 and EF-111s in 1998. The F-111 has been replaced in USAF service by the F-15E Strike Eagle for medium-range precision strike missions, while the supersonic bomber role has been assumed by the B-1B Lancer. The RAAF was the last operator of the F-111, with its aircraft serving until December 2010.\nNotify me of updates to General Dynamics F-111 Aardvark - U.S. tactical strike aircraft; 1/144",

        "raw_content": "\u2190 The Twitter President\nNewsweek Confirms Manhattan DA Raided Its Offices, Searched Its Servers \u2192\nWhy California Has The Nation\u2019s Worst Poverty Rate\nEarlier this week, the LA Times reminded its readers that California has the highest poverty rate in the nation.\nSpecifically, when using the Census Bureau\u2019s most recent\u201d Supplemental Poverty Measure\u201d (SPM), California clocks in with a poverty rate of 20 percent, which places it as worst in the nation.\nTo be sure, California is running quite closely with Florida and Louisiana, but we can certainly say that California is a top contender when it comes to poverty:\nThis continues to be something of a black eye for California politicians who imagine themselves to be the enlightened elite of North America. The fact that one in five Californians is below this poverty line doesn\u2019t exactly lend itself to crowing about the state\u2019s success in its various wars on poverty.\nMany conservative sites have seized on the information to say \u201cI told you so\u201d and claim this shows that \u201cblue-state\u201d policies fail. One should be careful with this, of course, since there are plenty of red states in the top ten as well. Moreover, some blue states, like Massachusetts, are doing moderately well by this measure:\nIn the realm of political punditry, though, it matters a great deal whether one is using the regular poverty measure, or the SPM. For one, in the regular poverty measure, California ranks better than Texas, and leftists love to use the standard poverty rate to talk about how truly awful Texas and other red states are. The Supplemental Poverty Measure allows Texans to talk about how awful California is.\nIf we\u2019re going to use census data to guess the prevalence of low-income households, though, the SPM is greatly superior to the old poverty rate. There\u2019s a reason, after all, that the Census Bureau developed it, and the Bureau has long warned that poverty rates using the old measure don\u2019t make for good comparisons across state lines.\nThe old poverty measure was a far more crude measure that did not take local costs into account, did not include poverty-assistance income, and basically ignored what can be immense differences in the cost of living in different locations. Many commentators often love to note how the median household income in many red states are below the national average \u2014 but then conveniently ignore how low the cost of living is in those places.\nThe SPM, on the other hand, takes into account the costs of \u201cfood, clothing, shelter, and utilities, and a small additional amount to allow for other needs\u201d It includes government benefits, but also subtracts taxes. (A full explanation is here.)\nThe end result shouldn\u2019t really be all that surprising: once we take into account the actual cost of living, including taxes, we find that poverty is actually quite high in California.\nHow to Alleviate Poverty\nThere are only two ways to reduce poverty and increase the standard of living:\nIncrease household income\nLower the cost of living\nPoverty can be alleviated by simply increasing income. Or it can be done by simply reducing the cost of living. Ideally, both things happen at once, and fortunately, that\u2019s usually how it works.\nThe greatest reductions in global poverty have come about due to the spread of capital and industrial production methods. This is because better and more widespread use of capital leads to two things:\n1. It increases household income by increasing worker productivity. That is, each worker can produce more stuff of higher value. This means each worker can take home a higher income.\n2. When we produce more stuff more quickly, that stuff becomes more affordable. Thanks to labor-saving and more efficient machinery, for example, fewer people can make more cars more quickly. In turn, more people can afford more cars because cars are more plentiful, and less expensive.\nOver time, more people can buy more stuff at lower prices, thus increasing their standard of living. Even better, thanks to modern capital, those people can also produce more during the hours they work, making it possible to buy even more stuff. Both pieces work together to increase living standards.\nOne of the biggest problems California is facing right now, though, is that government interventions in the marketplace are making it harder and harder to produce more stuff, thus driving up prices.\nThe end result is a higher cost of living, and thus more poverty. Kerry Jackson at The LA Times notes:\nFurther contributing to the poverty problem is California\u2019s housing crisis. More than four in 10 households spent more than 30% of their income on housing in 2015. A shortage of available units has driven prices ever higher, far above income increases. And that shortage is a direct outgrowth of misguided policies.\n\u201cCounties and local governments have imposed restrictive land-use regulations that drove up the price of land and dwellings,\u201d explains analyst Wendell Cox. \u201cMiddle-income households have been forced to accept lower standards of living while the less fortunate have been driven into poverty by the high cost of housing.\u201d The California Environmental Quality Act, passed in 1971, is one example; it can add $1 million to the cost of completing a housing development, says Todd Williams, an Oakland attorney who chairs the Wendel Rosen Black & Dean land-use group. CEQA costs have been known to shut down entire homebuilding projects. CEQA reform would help increase housing supply, but there\u2019s no real movement to change the law.\nExtensive environmental regulations aimed at reducing carbon dioxide emissions make energy more expensive, also hurting the poor. By some estimates, California energy costs are as much as 50% higher than the national average. Jonathan A. Lesser of Continental Economics, author of a 2015 Manhattan Institute study, \u201cLess Carbon, Higher Prices,\u201d found that \u201cin 2012, nearly 1 million California households faced \u2026 energy expenditures exceeding 10% of household income. In certain California counties, the rate of energy poverty was as high as 15% of all households.\u201d A Pacific Research Institute study by Wayne Winegarden found that the rate could exceed 17% of median income in some areas.\nIt is increasingly becoming common knowledge that California is notoriously bad in terms of the cost of housing.\nEvery time a new \u201ctop ten\u201d list of least-affordable housing markets is published, California cities often dominate the top of the list. In this list, for example, San Francisco, Los Angeles, San Jose, and San Diego are all in the top ten.\nHousing is perhaps the poster child for the impossibility of getting ahead in California. Much of this is due to locally-based NIMBYism in which local governments actively intervene to reduce new housing construction for the sake of \u201cpreserving the character\u201d of the neighborhoods. This is just another way of sawing: \u201crich people like things the way they are, so you poor people can just get lost. We\u2019re not building any more housing.\u201d\nThese same rich people then later pat themselves on the back for voting Democratic and \u201cdoing something\u201d about poverty.\nBut it\u2019s not all just local regulations. As Jackson notes, environmental regulations are especially burdensome on businesses, thus driving up the cost of everything. This is especially true of housing which requires land, water resources, and visibly impacts the local environment.\nThese regulations, mind you, are all imposed on top of already existing federal regulations, and in addition to the environmental regulations that already function with a lower burden to business in other states. Coloradans, for example, aren\u2019t exactly living in rivers of toxic sludge, in spite of having fewer environmental regulations \u2014 and cheaper housing.\nNor is housing the only industry impacted by these regulations. Mountains of anti-business regulations in the state also make it harder to start new businesses, hire people, and cover the basic costs of expanding worker productivity. Fewer workers get hired. Less capital is deployed to workers. The end result is that worker productivity growth can\u2019t keep up with increases in the cost of living. Poverty results.\nRecognizing this vise in which the poor are caught in California, the response is always the same: more rent control, more regulations, more more costly hoops for employers to jump through.\n\u201cWe\u2019re taming capitalism!\u201d the politicians tell themselves. Unfortunately, they\u2019ve driven a fifth of the population into poverty in the process.\nBut don\u2019t expect things to improve for the poor in California any time soon. California is perhaps the single biggest example in the US of how stylish locales become playgrounds for the rich, and a treadmill to nowhere for everyone else.\nIn recent years, news outlets have carried a number of articles on how workers in silicon valley are living in their cars. Sometimes, the homeless even have jobs at the big tech firms like Facebook. Nearly all of these homeless people have jobs of some sort, though. Thanks to the ruling classes of California, though, a basic apartment is $3,000 per month, while food and gasoline aren\u2019t exactly cheap.\nThe well-to-do tell themselves that the high cost of living is simply \u201cthe cost of doing business\u201d for living in such a wonderful place with so many enlightened, intelligent, and beautiful people. People can go to the beach whenever they want, and life is wonderful.\nOf course, anyone who has actually lived in California as a non-wealthy person knows that one most certainly can\u2019t go to the beach \u201cwhenever you want.\u201d If one is working two jobs to pay the rent, a day at the beach \u2014 after sitting in traffic and paying for parking \u2014 isn\u2019t exactly a regular event. Moreover, the communities with non-sky-high rents are generally found well inland, and aren\u2019t exactly next to Malibu.\nThis may help explain why, as the Sacramento Bee reported last year, California is exporting its poor to Texas. The beaches aren\u2019t as nice in Texas, but many of these migrants are trading in the beaches \u2014 which they never see anyway \u2014 for an affordable apartment.",

        "raw_content": "Tokyo International Film festival \u2013 November 09, 1998\nBP: Good morning to everyone. How do you say in Japanese? Ohayo? Ohayo.\nWas there earthquake last night? I thought I was back in California. How big it was? The size? Four? Three?\nQ: How do you feel about the premiere of your latest movie, MJB, here in Tokyo?\nBP: Oh it was just mayhem. [laughs] I\u2019ve never seen a theater like that to begin with. It was a stunning, beautiful theater. We don\u2019t have them that large and grand. And I\u2019m just happy the movie went well and people walked away with something. That\u2019s why we\u2019re here.\nQ: You\u2019ve been playing very interesing characters in the past, sometimes portraying the dark side of human nature. But Joe Black is a very symbolic character. Why did you choose this part at this time in your career?\nBP: I just wanted to get back to someting that I \u2026 listen, I\u2019d always kinda held out for. I guess I would call this a romantic comedy and I\u2019d always\nbeen looking for that and just waited till the right one came along. And I felt like this one was just because of the beautiful things it had to say about living and about doing the best you can and I just really liked the script. And it\u2019s more of instinctual thing when you make the choice. And also the storyteller is very important to me and that being Martin Brest. So, who is going to be telling the story? Cause it could come out you could have a script, and if ten different directors did it, then you could have ten different stories.\nQ: Everything is a first experience for the character Joe Black. Did you discuss this a lot with the director? And you said you loved the dinner scene. Why?\nBP: Many discussions with Marty Brest on keeping it discovery; everything was about discovery as far as Joe Black was concerned. The dinner scenes I loved just because we had had this collection of fantastic actors, and Tony leading us, and just to get to play off everyone and have everyone doing their stuff; because in the context of the film, everyone is coming from entirely different places and it\u2019s always funny to see these people conflict.\nQ: Did you do any improvisation during filming since Martin Breat is well know for allowing actors to improvise?\nBP: Yeah Marty let us play a lot, certainly with, there was alot of improvising with the excloration of Joe in the beginning, like with the peanutbutter and things like that. But we had a script that was so well written that Marty had worked on for almost ten years- him with Bo Goldman. And Bo Goldman is one of our best know writers. He was responsible for Cucoo\u2019s Nest for example. So I didn\u2019t want to change many of Bo\u2019s words. He knows what he\u2019s doing.\nQ: Have you seen this finished film?\nBP: Yes, three times, maybe four.\nQ: Really? How did you enjoy the film yourself? You know, it\u2019s eh, three hours long. It\u2019s quite a long film.\nBP: Yeah. Was everyone alright?\nQ: Are you worried about the running time? Or are you confident that you could suspend the audience?\nBP: No, I just tell people if they have a coke hold on to the cup.\nQ: A coke?\nBP: No one got that. [laughs] I\u2019m always looking for more technical things, how things flow into each other. So it\u2019s not so easy for me to get lost in the story as if I was just seeing it the firat time. But the last time I saw it, I saw it with an audience and I was very moved. It said things that touched me, so\u2026\nQ: The audience?\nBP: No the film what it says, I was able to stay more removed.\nBP: No, just pray.\nBP: Lots of close ups\u2026I don\u2019t really like to think that way. I think more of the scene whether it\u2019s working or not. The scene moves to the next\nmoment\u2026.Or if it stalls.\nBP: Ah that\u2019s brilliant isn\u2019t it? Yeah I don\u2019t want to give that one away because it comes at just the perfect timing in the film becuase you\u2019re led to think one thing is happening then.And then as far as how we did it\u2026I can\u2019t tell you. Marty just wanted to keep it in one shot instead of, you know\nusually in films you cut to the person on the street then you cut to the oncoming car then you cut to the person going \u2018ah\u2019 then you cut to the screeching tyres and then you cut to shoe rolling in the gutter and Marty didn\u2019t want to do that. He wanted it all in one shot and he pulled it off.\nQ: How did you like the person Joe Black when he is taken over by Death. Would you want him to be your friend?\nBP: I like him all right. I wouldn\u2019t want him to come to my house, though.\nQ: If Death came to visit you and told you that you only had a few days left, how would you spend those days?\nBP: I\u2019m throwing a big party and you\u2019re all invited.\nQ: What do you imagine Death looks like?\nBP: I have no idea and I\u2019m in no hurry to find out.\nQ: Joe, in the film, stays in Anthony Hopkins\u2019 house. If you were Death and had to stay a few days on this earth, whose house would you choose to stay in?\nBP: I don\u2019t know, I think I\u2019m going to the Caribbean, instead of NYC.\nQ: Joe Black teaches how to love. What does love mean to you?\nBP: Well, I mean, if you ask me, I\u2019d say there\u2019s nothing more important than love and then dealing with loss; love and loss, I think, is waht the film is about. Living and losing, and losing is an inevitable part of our life and we all have to deal with it eventually. And so I was very moved by the course\nthe film took.\nQ: Joe fell in love at first sight. Have you ever had that experience yourself?\nBP: Yes, I have.\nQ: Recently?\n[Brad notices one of the casette recorders set by reporters stops. He starts to check it.]\nBP: [into the recorder] Hello\u2026Oh, they\u2019re all going\u2026Um\u2026yes\u2026sorry. Oh well, that\u2019s it.\nBP: I\u2019m sorry I missed the question.\nQ: [inaudible] We\u2019ve also heard that you get into a part by listening to music, so what kind of music did you listen to to play Joe Black?\nBP: I\u2019m still into camera, some guitar, some design stuff. I\u2019m still into landscaping. Landscaping and just funiture and things.\nQ: How\u2019s the guitar?\nBP: It\u2019s an old Yamaha, like a seventy\u2019s Yamaha. I love music, so music\u2019s such an [inaudible]\u2026it\u2019s endless for me, because there\u2019s fantastic music in every category. But\u2026but this film\u2026who do I listen to? I think I listened to Philip Glass some\u2026he\u2019s an composer who\u2026an experimental composer. I don\u2019t know if he\u2019s known over here. And numerous others that I couldn\u2019t recall at this time. Right now I\u2019m listening to a lot of Radiohead and Aerosmith, and then my favorite always, Bob Marley.\nQ: Do you choose different roles because you don\u2019t want to be typecast, or do you just get good scripts?\nBP: Yes, certainly actors can be stereotyped. Then there\u2019re other actors that makes an entire career doing similar things, so\u2026I don\u2019t know about that; that\u2019s not the focus. Just for me, it\u2019s just much more interesting to finish a project and go into something completely different and see how you do, because it\u2019s always a test to me. Like this one was, this one was actually, although it seemes very simple, one of the most difficult things I\u2019ve tried, just because I wasn\u2019t sure where the balance was, there was no one I could go do any research with, there was I wasn\u2019t sure where to start on the\nomnipotence aspect of it all, and then the naivete.\n[The Interpreter interprets his words fluently. He\u2019s staring at her with admiration while she\u2019s speaking and says]\nBP: She\u2019s good isn\u2019t she? Really good.\nThe Interpreter: Thank you.\nQ: You\u2019ve been working in this business for almost ten years now. What kind of future do you see for yourself, career-wise?\nBP: Career-wise? I\u2019m just now starting to feel like I know what I\u2019m doing. So\u2026truthfully. [laughs] So, I see\u2026I have a direction that I want to head in the next few years and it\u2019s more experimental; we\u2019ll see if I get there or not. And other than that, I look forward to family life and doing some other things, actually. So as far as the acting goes, I\u2019m going to do it as long as they let me, but I see it being fewer and far between. [laughs]\nQ: Would you like to say anything?\nBP: Yeah, yeah. Unfortunately, I\u2019ve got to head back. So I got to see a little more of Tokyo than last time but still not everything. But I\u2019m going back to shoot Fight Club; we\u2019re in the middle of that. It\u2019s called The Fight Club. It\u2019s with David Fincher, who directed Seven. That one should be a nice one. So I\u2019m going to shoot, but thanks again. We\u2019re very excited, everyone involved with Joe Black in the States, when we heard we were going to get to close down the festival. So that was an honor for us. And thanks for having us again. And sitting through the movie.",

        "title": "e-Publication \u2014 The Cloud And Mobile POS: A Match Made In Heaven",
        "raw_content": "The Cloud And Mobile POS: A Match Made In Heaven\nAt the intersection of mobile POS and the cloud, you\u2019ll find payments Nirvana.\nThat\u2019s how Market Platform Dynamics CEO Karen Webster characterized the intertwining of two of payments\u2019 most dynamic industries, at a time when mobile purchases, merchant interest in data and payments flexibility are of ever-increasing importance.\nWebster spoke with Jason Richelson, CEO of ShopKeep, and Ken Paull, CEO of ROAM, to discuss that intersection, as well as the evolving mobile point of sale industry, the importance of tablets and more.\n\u201cThere are probably 200 apps in the App Store that allow you to take a credit card swipe, and if you consider that mobile point of sale, then yes, there\u2019s a lot of players out here,\u201d Richelson said. \u201cBut I can count on a few fingers how many players out there are servicing the merchant 360 degrees, and that was the problem I saw as a retailer. It wasn\u2019t about mobile point of sale, per say, as much as it was around all the problems with point of sale systems. \u201c\nAccording to Richelson, true mobile point of sale players need to be able to address sales strategies, support issues, technical problems, data storage and any other retailing needs that may arise.\n\u201cWe\u2019ve now realized that by having a cloud-based point of sale system with the front end running on tablets, we can deliver a whole bunch of other interesting stuff to consumers, which is what a whole lot of other people out there are not doing,\u201d Richelson said.\n\u201cA lot of these guys are just helping people swipe credit cards.\u201d\nPaull pointed out an interesting juxtaposition between ROAM and ShopKeep, noting that the two companies are both taking technologies that exist at one end of the merchant size spectrum and attempting to make them applicable for those on the other side as well.\n\u201cIt\u2019s interesting, what Jason had to say, because in essence what I see his company doing \u2026 is taking a lot of functionality that\u2019s being used by enterprise accounts down market into smaller firms that can leverage the crowd in a very focused way for their point of sale system,\u201d Paull noted.\n\u201cAt the same time, ROAM is very active in helping taking technology that has been down at the bottom with smaller merchants and moving it up market. We\u2019re both coming at it at different angels, and there is some intersection.\u201d\nPaull also noted an \u201cintersection\u201d between ROAM and ShopKeep in that his company is attempting to broaden its support features, such as its basic inventory functions, while ShopKeep is expanding its payments capabilities.\n\u201cThere\u2019s a lot of activity with both this technology coming down and up market, and colliding in some respects,\u201d Paull said.\nHow do the two companies view the mPOS industry growing and changing in the future?\nRichelson cited tablets as a key player, and made the bold prediction that within the next three years, 50 percent of POS terminals will incorporate tablet use for cashiering.\n\u201cWe\u2019re already seeing it, we\u2019re seeing a huge increase in adoption and as upgrade cycles change, as people are more or less forced to take different payments options \u2026 you\u2019re going to start to see it really snowball over the next few years,\u201d Richelson said.\nPaull declined to confirm Richelson\u2019s aggressive timeframe prediction, but agreed that tablets are having a major impact on the POS industry, and noted that EMV will force the industry to change as well.\n\u201cThere\u2019s no doubt that people are underestimating the coming of tablets, and I think it\u2019s a huge trend, and I think that what a lot of people haven\u2019t thought about is the combination of tablets and EMV,\u201d he said.\n\u201cI think there\u2019s going to be quite a fallout of folks \u2026 in terms of small players continuing to participate in providing an end-to-end solution, because I think this is going to require a much more sophisticated solution with EMV.\u201d",

        "title": "CyberOptics Reports Second Quarter Sales of $16M",
        "raw_content": "CyberOptics Reports Second Quarter Sales of $16M\nJuly 30, 2018 | CyberOptics Corporation\nCyberOptics Corp. has reported sales of $15.9 million for the second quarter of 2018 ended June 30, down from $16.4 million in the second quarter of 2017. Second quarter earnings came to $740,000 or $0.10 per diluted share, compared to earnings of $1.1 million or $0.15 per diluted share in the year-earlier period.\nDr. Subodh Kulkarni, president and chief executive officer, commented, \"Our second quarter revenue was driven by record sales of our WaferSense semiconductor sensors, which are becoming a key growth engine. Sales of inspection/metrology systems were lower year-over-year, but our quarter-ending backlog of 3D Multi-Reflection Suppression (MRS) enabled SQ3000 AOI systems makes us confident this important system platform should post strong year-over-year sales growth in the third quarter of 2018. In all, we are encouraged about where CyberOptics stands today and anticipate further progress in this year\u2019s second half.\"\nSecond quarter sales of semiconductor sensors, principally the WaferSense product line, rose by 25% year-over-year to nearly $4 million, a quarterly record for this product family. WaferSense sensors are steadily gaining traction in the semiconductor market as fabricators of semiconductors and other customers view these products as valuable tools for improving quality, tool uptime and yields. A new sensor for manufacturers of flat panel displays has recently been launched and additional WaferSense applications are currently under development.\nSales of inspection/metrology systems declined by 13% year-over-year to $6.7 million but were up 13% from this year\u2019s first quarter. Reflecting normal variability in quarterly sales, total sales of 3D MRS-enabled SQ3000 systems, including the new SQ3000 CMM that combines automated optical inspection and metrology functionality, declined 6% year-over-year in the second quarter to $2.6 million but rose modestly year-over-year in the first half of 2018. Total SQ3000 sales are forecasted to increase significantly in this year\u2019s third quarter on a year-over-year basis, given the strong second quarter-ending backlog of these systems. During the quarter, CyberOptics sold approximately $1.0 million of metrology-related CT scanning systems. As previously reported, a $1.6 million order was received in the second quarter for MX600 memory module inspection systems, with revenues expected in the first quarter of 2019. CyberOptics is pursuing other MX600 opportunities, but revenues from any orders received this year most likely would not be realized until 2019.\nTotal sensor sales declined 7% year-over-year to $5.3 million in the second quarter of 2018. Sales of 3D MRS-enabled sensors, primarily to KLA-Tencor and Nordson YESTECH, declined modestly to $1.6 million in the second quarter but were up 59% year-over-year in the first half of 2018. Multiple semiconductor manufacturers are evaluating working prototypes of MRS-enabled mid-end semiconductor inspection sensors. With three micron pixel resolution, these prototypes can measure feature sizes down to 30 microns accurately and at high speeds. CyberOptics is targeting one micron resolution (three sigma accuracy) at speeds that would inspect more than 20 300 mm wafers per hour. CyberOptics believes nominal, initial sensor sales will be realized later this year, marking an important strategic milestone in the development of what is believed to be a significant long-term opportunity. Sales of mid-end inspection sensors are expected to ramp up in 2019 and beyond.\nTotal second quarter sales of 3D MRS-enabled products, including sensors, inspection systems and metrology products, came to $4.3 million, compared to $4.7 million in the year-earlier period. For the first six months of 2018, total MRS revenues rose 24% year-over-year to $8.6 million. CyberOptics is pursuing new OEM relationships for its MRS technology in its key surface mount technology (SMT), semiconductor and metrology markets. Total sales of 3D MRS-enabled products are expected to grow significantly on a year-over-year basis in the third quarter of 2018.\nCyberOptics ended the second quarter of 2018 with an order backlog of $13.8 million, including the $1.6 million order for the MX600 systems, up from $12.1 million at the end of this year\u2019s first quarter. The company is forecasting sales of $14.75 to $16.25 million for the third quarter of 2018 ending September 30.\n\"We are encouraged by the progress that our 3D MRS sensor technology is making in our target markets, as well as the outlook for our WaferSense product family. CyberOptics is moving in the right direction, and we are optimistic about our future,\" Kulkarni added.",

(Photo: Susan Walsh)\nWASHINGTON (AP) \u2014 When the Smithsonian Museum of African-American History and Culture opens this week alongside the Washington Monument and the National Museum of American History, it will firmly \u2014 and finally \u2014 anchor the black experience in the nation's narrative.\n\"In 1915 . they say, 'There should be a monument. There should be a memorial that honors our contribution,'\" said Michelle Wilkinson, one of the museum's curators. \"Not just a pile of stone, or a shaft. It needs to be a museum.\"\nFifty years after the end of the Civil War, black citizens in Washington, D.C., formed the National Memorial Association with the purpose of \"erecting a beautiful building . suitable to depict the Negro's contribution to America.\" It would be, they said, \"a shrine for posterity.\"\nIt has taken a century for their dream to be realized in Washington, a place visited by more than 20 million people from around the world who want to learn about the United States. During that time, other monuments and museums celebrating the stories of other Americans were proposed and built in the nation's capital.\nOn Saturday, the long wait is over: America's first black president and first lady will preside over the museum's opening.\nThousands are expected to attend the museum's inaugural weekend, and millions more will virtually experience the milestone via social media.\nThe imposing space on the National Mall likely will set visitor records. And in an era informed simultaneously by the historic election of President Barack Obama and a succession of killings of unarmed black men at the hands of police, it is a building that will affirm for many that black lives matter.\nIts facade is unlike anything else in Washington. The building's outward design \u2014 known as the Corona \u2014 features walls reaching skyward, evoking the resiliency, faith and hope that has sustained black Americans since they were brought to the country in bondage. Its three-tiered shape is inspired by a symbol from the Yoruba people of West Africa featuring a crown. The 3,600 bronze-colored panels surrounding the building are a tribute to the 19th-century ironwork created by slaves in New Orleans.\n\"The structure itself is imbued with meaning,\" said Phil Freelon, the lead architect for the museum. \"All these things are subtle. That's intentional. It has a certain sense to it that is African-American, in the way that our culture is expressive in other areas. We believe architecture can evoke those sorts of emotions.\"\nIt is a building that fulfills the original vision of the association members. In a letter addressed to state representatives across the country, the group pled their case for a national memorial, saying, \"General memorials do not make the average American think of Negroes. Therefore, the failure to erect a special memorial may and probably will be interpreted as meaning that Negroes have made no great contribution to American advancement in war or in any other field.\"\nThey went on to say: \"It would be a splendid idea if all this could find a place in a public building in Washington where it would reflect the greatest possible good throughout the country.\"\nWashingtonians have watched the building rise from nothing on a grassy knoll at the bustling intersection of Constitution Avenue and 15th Street. Construction on the museum began in 2012, the same year Obama was re-elected to a second term. It will open four months before he is set to leave office.\nStanding five stories high with 60 percent of the building below ground, the 400,000-square foot structure attempts to hold four centuries of black history. Visitors begin by descending to the basement and then walk up a series of ramps winding through the origins of slavery, to the bonds of Jim Crow, to an integrated society. Exhibits on the upper floors highlight the unique contributions of blacks to areas of American life, including the military, sports, music, the visual arts, film and television, business, the news media and religion.\nArtifacts large and small fill the space, sure to evoke feelings of pain and pride from the collective memories of black visitors.\nThere are the ankle shackles that would have been used to restrain people who became slaves after crossing the Atlantic Ocean from the African continent to the Americas. A bill of sale for an enslaved 16-year-old girl named Polly, who was sold for $600 in Arkansas in 1835. A segregated Southern Railway passenger car that would have passed through Kentucky, Tennessee, Georgia and Florida. Glass shards and shotgun shells from the 16th Street Baptist Church in Birmingham, Alabama, where four little girls were killed in a racist bombing in 1963.\nThere also is a biplane used at Alabama's Tuskegee Institute to train black pilots for Army Air Corps service during World War II. A vintage red Cadillac from rock-and-roll legend Chuck Berry's personal collection. Harriet Tubman's hymn book, circa 1876. Michael Jackson's fedora.\nVisitors can eat at a cafe featuring authentic black cuisines from four regions of the country: the agricultural South, the Creole coast, the North states, and the Western range. Dishes include Brunswick stew, shrimp and grits, an oyster pan roast, and rainbow trout stuffed with mustard greens.\nMarcia Morris, a 12th-grade English teacher who lives in nearby Fairfax, Virginia, has closely followed news reports as the museum acquired rare treasures and opening day approached. \"The closer it came to completion, the more real it became,\" she said.\nAs construction progressed, Morris thought often of her deceased grandparents, who lived during segregation.\n\"A museum just dedicated to the history of black people? That was not in the realm of (my grandfather's) thought process,\" she said. \"They weren't educated. I know the things my grandparents went through. I think we owe something to that generation.\"\nTickets to the museum are free, but visitors must make reservations for timed tours. Weekends already are booked through early December, and the museum has extended its hours to accommodate the increased demand.\nMorris ordered tickets next month to coincide with her daughter's 16th birthday, which she finds a fitting way to mark the occasion.\n\"They have a black president, people on television are black, black is cool to them and their friends,\" Morris said of her daughter and son. \"I don't want them to ever not know what black people have gone through.\"\nWhen Dianne Washington travels south from Harlem to visit the museum at the end of October, she said will be making a trip that is overdue.\n\"We have contributed so much to this country, free of charge,\" she said.\nShe is overjoyed that the moment is finally here.\n\"Everything was built on our backs,\" she said. \"Our ancestors suffered so much. Something should be in place to honor them and their story told properly. Why not us? I can't wait.\"",

        "raw_content": "Zucker's goal in shootout seals Wild's 3-2 win over Kings\nBy JOE ZIEMER\nST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) Jason Zucker knew just what he wanted to do on his turn in the shootout.\nZucker scored on that backhand in a shootout to lift the Minnesota Wild to a 3-2 win over the Los Angeles Kings on Tuesday night.\n\"It wasn't the prettiest game we've ever played,\" Zucker said, \"but we did what we had to do. We battled. I thought we were skating pretty well.\"\nIt was Zucker's first career shootout goal in five tries. Zucker was the only shooter from either team to convert.\nNino Niederreiter and Eric Staal scored for the Wild, who had lost their previous two games.\n\"I thought we deserved it,\" Wild coach Bruce Boudreau said. \"We played 65 minutes really hard. There was no let-up tonight.\"\nIlya Kovalchuck and Jeff Carter scored for the Kings, who came into the game tied with Ottawa for the fewest points in the league.\nCarter scored with 2 minutes, 30 seconds remaining in the third period to tie the game for the Kings, who fell behind twice only to tie the score.\nStaal's goal 7:13 into the third period gave the Wild a 2-1 lead until Carter tied it about 10 minutes later.\nNiederreiter, who was dropped to the fourth line Tuesday, scored off a wrist shot at 10:16 of the second period to give Minnesota a 1-0 lead. Niederreiter scored for the second time in three games after a 12-game goal drought.\n\"At the end of the day, you just go out there and try to do your best. It doesn't matter what line you're on,\" Niederreiter said. \"It just happened to work that way.\"\nKovalchuk tied it on a rebound 16:03 into the second. Kovalchuck had gone 10 games without scoring.\nMinnesota's Ryan Suter threw a shot on goal at 7:13 in the third. It was deflected into an open net by Staal, bouncing off of his shin pad. It was the veteran center's first goal in 10 games.\n\"A lot of times, the game can be fair. Sometimes it's not,\" Staal said.\n\"It took one like that to get a reward. We'll take it, and hopefully that can kick start me in the right direction - and all of us. We'll take the win.\"\nCarter tied it off another rebound. Tyler Toffoli's shot deflected off Adrian Kempe and fell to Carter, who put it away for his 10th goal of the season.\n\"I thought we were probably lucky to get a point,\" Carter said. \"We had a slow start. They played last night. They traveled last night. We had a slow start. We got it to overtime, which was good. We showed some battle and got back, but probably not our best game.\"\nPlaying for the second consecutive night, Minnesota started backup Alex Stalock in goal in place of All-Star starter Devon Dubnyk, who was pulled during Monday's 7-4 loss at Philadelphia. Stalock made 31 saves Tuesday and stopped all three shootout tries.\nJonathan Quick made 40 saves for Los Angeles.\n\"We rely on him a little bit too much, but he made some big saves, for sure,\" Kings coach Willie Desjardins said. \"The game could have got away on us a little bit, but we do depend on him that way.\"\nNOTES: The Kings had to kill off a 4-on-3 penalty during the overtime period. ... Dubnyk had started 16 of the last 17 games Minnesota.\nKings: At Dallas Stars on Thursday.\nWild: Host Anaheim Ducks on Thursday.",

        "raw_content": "As a young girl, growing up I was always my mother\u2019s helper. Being the eldest sibling in a single-parent household, the message I received was unspoken: you are the eldest, I need you, and your brothers and sisters are your responsibility, too. While I accepted this role, there were many times when I did not completely want this expectation. Upon reflection, though, I realize our lifestyle provided me with limited opportunities for childhood mistakes. Even when I reached high school and college, I still felt responsible for my siblings.\nIt was during my undergraduate years, though that my beloved grandmother, the woman who primarily raised me, became quite ill. This beautiful black woman, who had risen from being an orphan, had always impressed upon me that I could do anything I put my mind to. While I returned home as often as I could to be by her side, my GPA and disqualification from XXXX University did not dampen my spirit nor dissolve my dreams. After completing my undergraduate education with San Francisco State University, I had a great deal of pride in my accomplishments, and yet was left wanting to go further. I quickly learned to keep my ambitions to myself as many commented, \u201cyou just got out [of school], aren\u2019t you done with this school thing?\u201d\nMy performance at XXXX University was directly in line with my ability and was instrumental in proving to myself that I really was capable of anything I set my mind to. Upon graduating, I was anxious to begin my work, and actively sought out and procured work in the San Francisco community serving the mental health needs of inner-city children and adolescents.\nIt was in this capacity that I found that schools were designed as a holding tank, to get kids out of the mainstream so it could keep going. Sadly, children were frequently left to their own devices to deal with the sets of problems that inner city life brings. There were simply too few counselors, psychologists and social workers assigned to assist the children. While teachers and administration were focused on the task of passing standardized tests, nobody was addressing children\u2019s deeper psychological and emotional needs.\nTo reach more children, I felt the need for a new approach, a new method. Turning to yoga, I became certified in yoga instruction, learning firsthand the benefits of Mindfulness Based Stress yoga/meditation. I felt that I had come to a viable solution for reaching children and adolescents\u2019 unique needs. To prove this, I offered a cost free Mindfulness Based meditation/yoga series to a homeless shelter for adolescents and later got involved in setting up a yoga program within the XXXX Department of Juvenile Justice using the 30-minute psycho-education school course period.\nReaching the children proved to be an exercise in inter-agency participation and cooperation, particularly through educating teachers, social workers and support staff in order to support the yoga programming; for my part, I was warned frequently to never call is \u201cmeditation\u201d. With eyes closed and deep breaths, students learned a new method to reduce anxiety, conflict, and attention disorders. We got violent kids into yoga and kids who used drugs into meditation and I began to dream of how Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) skills could benefit at-risk youth, and the dream grew wings. MBSR skills actually supported a more positive learning environment, where inner city students were more primed for paying attention and being in the moment in a classroom setting. I remember clearly, my defining moment when I recognized that mindfulness meditation and complementary stress reduction skills might have healing benefits and support a youth\u2019s ability to handle stress and alleviate depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress, the foundation for my Ph.D. research.",

        "raw_content": "I want very much to attend the XXXX Medical School at XXXX University because I have always imagined that I would have the privilege of spending my working life as a medical doctor, saving lives, curing ailments, alleviating pain, and contributing to making life better for everyone with whom I engage professionally. In my experience working as a paramedic, I have had the experience of pulling the sheet over the victim's head. The first time I did this I began to tremble. I had learned my first great lesson of medicine: that for all its power, it cannot always prevail. I had experienced what is perhaps the most disheartening and demoralizing aspect of the practice of medicine and faced it head on. I have also demonstrated that I know how to cope with life and death emergencies with confidence, a confidence instilled in me primarily by my certification as an Emergency Medical Technician. I now have the ability to take charge of a desperate situation and help someone in critical need and my experience as an EMT has reinforced my decision to pursue medicine as a career.\nOf course healing, curing, and saving lives is much more rewarding than trying and failing. As an EMT I have been exposed to the satisfying aspects of medicine in a setting very new to me urban medicine. I spent most of one summer riding along with an ambulance team in Houston. Almost every call we received dealt with Latino patients either speaking only Spanish or very little broken English. And, I suddenly realized the critical importance of understanding a foreign culture and language in the practice of medicine, particularly when serving under-served, minority populations. In transporting patients from the field to the hospital, I became aware of this community's reduced access to medical care as a result of a lack of physicians able to communicate with and understand their patients. I decided, therefore, to minor in Spanish. Having almost completed my minor, I have not only expanded my academic horizons, I have gained a new sense of cultural awareness that I feel is indispensable in today's diverse society.\nThroughout my undergraduate years at XXXX, I have combined my scientific interests in medicine with my passion for Hispanic culture and language. During my sophomore year, I volunteered at a medical clinic in the rural town of XXXX, Mexico. For one month, I shadowed a doctor in the clinic and was concurrently enrolled in classes for medical Spanish. It was in XXXX that I witnessed medicine being practiced as I imagined it should be: seeing the doctor treat his patients with skill and compassion, as fellow human beings, rather than simply diseases to be outsmarted. I realized he was truly helping the people of XXXX in a manner unique to the practice of medicine. Fascinated by my exposure to this very hands-on approach to clinical medicine, I was thrilled to see medicine making such a difference in people's lives. For me, the disciplines of Spanish and science have become inseparable, and I plan to pursue a career in urban medicine that allows me to integrate the two. Later, I intend to practice somewhere in California with a large Hispanic population.\nI see medicine as a multi-faceted profession. I have witnessed its healing power, especially in rural Chacala, and I have seen its weaknesses and limitations, facing death as an EMT. Inspired, in particular, by the Latino community of Houston, I realize the benefits of seeing medicine from a holistic, culturally sensitive perspective. I want to thank you for consideration of my application.",

Here is a description: The Liebster Award Official Rules If you have been nominated for The Liebster Award AND YOU CHOOSE TO ACCEPT IT, write a blog post about the Liebster award in which you: 1. Thank the person w\u2026\nFor a while now, I have been blogging about voice. I recently shared a post here, called Speaking Your Truth. During the A to Z blogger's challenge I also wrote a post called Saying No to Being a Yes Woman. As a writer, I play around with POV (point of view) in my novels. There are many POV's in \"No Barren Life\" I am currently working with switching from the protagonist's voice to the antagonist's perspective in the novel about sirens and a blues singer called \"Out of the Blue.\" Oh how I am struggling with that one. To go from a light, well meaning character to a very dark evil one, reflecting their intentions and voices with equal stature is very challenging. More on that as it develops.\nVoice and making decisions plays a huge role in my daily life, as it does for just about everyone. In art, writing and daily life, I have a tendency to be very open. Sometimes I over reach set goals, in my desire for openness and experimentation. Openness includes \u2026\nToday, for the first time on this blog, I am sharing an excerpt from my novel, for which I am trying to gain support through Pubslush, called \"No Barren Life.\" I hope you enjoy this piece, as it was one of my favorites to write. I also hope that you will become a supporter of my journey to publication.\nDaisy, the Anangu woman we were sent to see by the River Bank, is the keeper of her people\u2019s women\u2019s business and secrets. She is about five foot four inches and two hundred pounds. Daisy wears a matronly bra that must have once been white, and an A-lined, faded green cotton skirt that grazes her ashy knees. Not alone, she is accompanied by a small group of women dressed in a similar way. Here come the women, all of them use either walking or dancing sticks. I see that some hold what I\u2019ve been told is called a coolamon, a common sight, which I learned serves as a special wooden carrying dish to carry bush tucker, seeds and bush medicines, as well as babies. Daisy is the l\u2026\nA while ago, I was carrying laundry, in a rush to the basement at about 6 a.m. and missed the second to the bottom step. You can probably imagine what happened next. I came tumbling down, dispersing dirty clothing everywhere. I landed on the top of my foot rather than the sole. Needless to say, I dislocated the ankle and fractured it in two places.\nI remember Googling 'fractured ankle', trying to learn how long it would take to heal. The amount of weeks I saw that it would take was awe-inspiring. During that time I spent time in a wheel chair, on crutches, in a motorized cart while shopping and in a boot. I also had surgery, which was scary. For a former dancer and someone who loves yoga, this was a humbling experience.\nAs you know from reading this blog, I have been going to restorative yoga for healing my body and getting more in touch with it. One class I go to is strictly restorative in the best sense of the word. The other one calls itself restorative but includes standi\u2026\nSo, you might have read my previous post about visiting Michigan. Most of it was lovely, just as I blogged. Unfortunately, on Mother's Day there was a very dark comment made towards my family at a restaurant, while celebrating that holiday. We were having a lovely breakfast. The restaurant features a lot of organic and vegetarian foods, which I love. We had received our food and everyone was busy eating when I heard something so troubling--such a throw back to olden times that I couldn't quite believe my ears.\nAn older white man was saying something I couldn't quite make out. He couldn't have said what I thought he said, I thought. Then he stood up, ready to leave the restaurant in a huff, and repeated what I thought I might have heard. \"That's why things should remain separate but equal,\" he proclaimed, looking directly at me. My family is interracial. Apparently either he didn't like that or he thought my son and I should not be allowed to eat in t\u2026\nThe key to getting this writer's mojo back and into the flow of writing was being submerged in nature. I went to Michigan, to a relatively isolated location with part of my family. There isn't an awful lot to do there because it is still out of season and too cold for out and out swimming in Lake Michigan. I found that the best thing to do was simply rest and relax, listening to the sounds of nature. I also did a lot of bird watching and what an array of birds live there. I saw some spectacular migrant birds and some of the types I don't see in my yard--actually many types I don't see here. We are mostly visited by sparrows, cardinals and robins with the occasional blue jay, starlin\u2026\nAfter careful thought and a lot of deliberation, as well as conversation here in this blog space, I have decided to seek crowdfunding to publish my debut novel, \"No Barren Life.\" As you know, it has had a difficult path to publication, as it is not an easy book to read. With an experimental style, it is a book that tackles head on, troubling topics such as child sexual, emotional and physical abuse. These are tough topics for anyone to face but they are also all too real.\nThe book isn't a downer though--far from it. Yolanda the main character, is gifted magically and assisted by an array of characters equally gifted, and able to traverse different worlds to change her troubling situation. These characters include her tree whispering and Hoodoo practicing Grandfather, her babalayo of Santeria Uncle, and a group of powerful women who are also Aboriginal healers that she meets in Australia. Ultimately this is a coming of age story about self-determination and transformatio\u2026\nLike most of you, I've been pinning away for spring. I've posted about it several times, wondering where it was and when would it arrive. Yesterday, it was the warmest day we've had this year. It was a balmy and humid 91 degrees. It takes the body, mind and spirit time to adjust to such drastic changes. The day before that I was wearing a sweater and wrapped in a blanket.\nThis morning when I went outside there was evidence it had rained overnight and it felt chillier but okay, considering the harsh winter that we'd just mustered through. Then on my way home from dropping my son off at school it started pouring. Traffic crawled. My morning that had started so promising, on the wings of yesterday, had suddenly taken a turn for the worse.\nWe talk about the weather so much because it is our common experience as humans. It is what makes up much of our outdoor environment and yes, it does color our mood.\nIn film and sometimes in books as well, when it rains or pours, I call\u2026\nIt has been a winding, crooked path to meet my goals for weight loss. As many of you who have been following this blog know, losing weight was one of my New Years Resolutions. I have much to be proud of. I have stayed on that path without deviating even once since taking on this challenge in January. My body, however, has different ideas. Those of you on this journey with me know all too well, the body will drop its weight in chunks, then hold off, sometimes for weeks until it stabilizes before it will drop any more. This happens though I consistently eat the same way.\nLooking at this photograph of the pathway, it is easy to engage in the notion of journey. Yes, you can get to that destination promised in the picture but there is much to enjoy along the way to getting there. I have reached a major milestone. I am at the 30 pound mark, which means I am 1/3 of the way to meeting my goal. I get frustrated when I reach plateaus, such as where I am right now. Since my body is meandering, \u2026\nLast night I had trouble sleeping. I was once again up during the late middle of the night. Something different happened for me this time though. My mind wondered off to yoga class--restorative yoga to be specific.\nMonday's restorative was very physical. It was more focused on the body than I am accustomed to. At first I didn't think I liked this different approach but then gradually it grew on me. Our instructor noticed the low energy in our group. Sometimes you just go to restorative yoga to relax and kick back. That is what most of us seemed to be doing. To remain in that state may well have caused our day to be static, low energy and to lack flow. Slowly but surely our teacher set about finding ways to energize us.\nWe got our blood flowing through flowing postures and moving meditations. I especially enjoyed eagle pose. It was a new challenge. Since I had broken my ankle I don't think I had stood on just that one repaired foot in ages. I felt accomplished.\nWhat reall\u2026\nStill a bit tired from the A to Z challenge. Hope you enjoyed my month of alphabetical inspirational posts. I certainly enjoyed taking on a new challenge, as well as, all the new activity from various challenge bloggers and your thoughtful comments. I am grateful to all that joined this site and followed me on Google+. I hope you will stop in often.\nToday is a wonderful holiday for many of us. May 1st is Beltane. I thought today it would be nice to have you revisit my post from last year that shares information about this holiday. It is called: Beltane Blessings.\nEnjoy, many blessings, and Happy Beltane!",

Miles - Founding Pastor & Bishop Emeritus of the Diocese of St. Stephen the Martyr\nEmail: bpdmiles@bellsouth.net\nBishop Don is the founding pastor of St. Stephen Church. A Louisville native, he undertook education for ministry through the University of the South and was ordained to the Diaconate in 1984 (Bp. David Reed, ECUSA - Diocese of Kentucky). After watching a decade of assaults on the historic faith and order of the church within ECUSA, as well as increasing opposition to the prolife movement, Dn. Don was asked to start a prayer group in his home. Within weeks, St. Stephen Church was born and began looking for a way to unite with likeminded Christians.\nThe Charismatic Episcopal Church (CEC) welcomed St. Stephen Church, and Dn. Don received the Priesthood in 1995 (Bp. Randolph Sly, CEC Central Eastern Diocese). As the CEC grew, Fr. Don was elected a bishop and consecrated as the Auxiliary Bishop in 2000 (Bp. Fred Fick, CEC Great Lakes Province; co-consecrators were Bp. Doug Woodall, Bp. John Holloway & Bp. Rick Painter).\nA crisis in leadership led a large number of clergy and people departing from the CEC, including the Great Lakes Province. Bp. Don continued to provide episcopal protection to the clergy & churches seeking to affiliate in a new way. Some went to the AMiA. Others joined continuing Anglican churches. Still others created a small college of bishops (the Communion of Christ the Redeemer), praying for God to bring about unity among the faithful orthodox Anglicans.\nWithin two years, that prayer has been answered. The Communion of Christ the Redeemer, already a member of Forward in Faith (FiF-NA), is now reuniting to the Anglican Communion through various jurisdictions in ACNA. Churches and clergy under Bps. Don and Bp. Richard Lipka are now part of the FiF-NA Missionary Diocese of All Saints. As part of rejoining the mainstream of Anglicanism in America, Bp. Don passed on his apostolic lineage as one of the co-consecrators of the first ACNA bishop, the Rt. Rev'd William Ilgenfritz. Bp. Don, having shepherded the faithful under him into the wider pasture of the Anglican Church in North America, is transitioning to retirement and continues his episcopal ministry as a bishop emeritus.\nBp. Don has been married to Patricia for thirty-four years. They have four children, ten grandchildren, and three great-grandchildren.",

He was conceived by the Holy Spirit and was born of the Virgin Mary in a humble manger in Bethlehem. We believe in the Incarnation - that God was made man without ceasing to be God. Thus He is true God and true man. This man is Jesus Christ. Through Him we are called to be heirs of the Kingdom of Heaven. Jesus is the second person of the Holy Trinity: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.\nGod created the heavens and the earth, and all who live in it. As His sons and daughters, we were created to be in relationship with Him forever in paradise. However, through the fault of our first parents, Adam and Eve, sin entered and broke our relationship with God. This created a great divide between us, a barrier that we can never fix on our own. Because of this, God sent His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ, to reconcile us to Him. Jesus was condemned to suffer for our sake -- leading to His death on the cross. His death bore our sin and shame and through this one act of love He fixed the broken relationship between us and the Father. We believe that Jesus died and went to the grave, and that in three days He rose again in glory. Through His death and resurrection, He conquered sin. His victory over death is our hope and our salvation. Through Christ we can rise again and through Him we are invited into the heavenly inheritance that awaits us. This is the Gospel or the Good News as we call it. However, it does not end there. The Good News is about hope and the invitation that follows it. It is an invitation to get to know the person of Jesus Christ, in whom we place our trust. It is an invitation to say yes to Him and to encounter the Church.",

Due to an agreement signed in 2014, the University expects more students from China in the following years. The official journal of the University of Pannonia (Egyetem\u00fcnk) prepared short interviews with some of the newcomers.\nAs you probably noticed, more and more Chinese students appeared on the streets of Veszpr\u00e9m in the last few months. You can practically see them almost all around town. So we decided to look into this mystery.\nFirst of all we contacted G\u00e1bor S\u00f6veges, the international officer of our university, who coordinated these Chinese students\u2019 arrival. We got to know that totally 65 students came from China with the help of a recruitment agency in Beijing since September of 2014, 16 of them just arrived at the end of March. This agency helped to recruit the students from the beginnings.\nRead the full article here: http://egyetemunk.com/small-china-in-veszprem/",

        "raw_content": "You are here: Suzy Homeschooler \u00bb For Mom and Dad \u00bb Top 10 Reasons to Stop Following a Homeschool Blogger\nHere are some red flags for rubbish homeschool bloggers. If you see any of these traits then you should not hesitate to click \u201cunsubscribe.\u201d\n1- If their religious and/or spiritual beliefs are different from your own.\nObviously you choose to homeschool in an effort to protect your children from other world views. Why would you subject yourself to the toxic words of a non-believer or a false-worshiper? If you don\u2019t want your child to read that smut, then you shouldn\u2019t be reading it either.\n2- If none of your homeschooling friends follow them.\nYou want to fit in with your homeshool community right? Well the best way to do that is to make sure you all get your ideas from the same place. Avoid standing out from the crowd by making sure to read and do only what your homeschool friends are reading and doing.\n3- If they put some of their children in public school.\nPutting a child in the public school system is the ultimate sign of failure in a homeschool family. Don\u2019t believe anyone who tells you that homeschooling isn\u2019t for everyone or that public school is really the better option for some children. Don\u2019t waste your time following a failure.\n4- If they admit to falling off schedule or having a bad homeschool day/week/year.\nHomeschooling is a wonderful thing. Anyone who doesn\u2019t enjoy all the extra time with their children obviously doesn\u2019t love them. And anyone who can\u2019t keep to homeschool schedule obviously doesn\u2019t know how to manage their household. Why would you want to take tips from someone like that?\n5- If they quote statistics or link to references in their writing.\nA person with a strong conviction, who knows that they are right, would not feel the need to research their choices before making them. A person who is correct does not need to fancy up their argument with numbers. Besides, 99% of all statistics are made up anyway, and the studies they link to are probably flawed.\n6- If they have sons but you have daughters (or vice versa).\nBoys should be focused on science and math. Girls should be focused on literature and art. Following a blogger with children the opposite gender of your own ensures that you\u2019ll be getting ideas and tips for subjects that don\u2019t fit your family\u2019s needs.\n7- If they use a teaching method that is different from your own.\nIf you use classical education, then you have nothing to gleam from people who so-called \u201cunschool\u201d their children. If you use the Montessori method then you don\u2019t want your homeschool sullied by those who use the classical method. And for the love of libraries, avoid anyone and everyone who claims to practice eclectic homeschooling. Eclectic homeschooling is just code for wishy-washy people who can\u2019t commit to one method.\n8- If they live in another part of the country, or even another part of the world.\nThe cultural differences of traveling even just a few states away from where you currently live can be so drastic. And following homeschool bloggers from other parts of the world is just a bad idea. You need to protect and shelter your mind the same way you do for your children. Avoid other world views at all costs. Stick to what you know.\n9- If their children are older than your own children.\nBecause you don\u2019t have any interest nor need to read the opinions of people who have \u201cbeen there and done that.\u201d Doesn\u2019t matter that they may have successfully graduated children who have gone on to do great things with their lives. Doesn\u2019t matter that they may have experienced all the good and the bad that homeschooling has to offer. Doesn\u2019t matter that they are in a unique position to see the \u201cbig picture.\u201d If they aren\u2019t currently down in the trenches just like you, then you don\u2019t need to hear from them. Much like grandparents- their time is over and they have become obsolete.\n10- If they use humor in their posts.\nIts homeschooling, not a comedy club. You follow it for practical advice, tips, and maybe even the occasional free lesson plan. People who try to be funny are merely covering up for the fact that their website isn\u2019t a helpful resource. This goes double for bloggers who write entire posts as satire or sarcasm.\n*This entire post was written sarcastically.\nPlastic Bottle Viking Longboat (part two) - What Happened When I Let My Husband Plan the Family Vacation",

        "raw_content": "about tcsExpedition Leader Richard Butler\nFor almost two decades, Richard Butler has assisted or led expeditions on all seven continents and traveled to more than 110 countries.\nHis longstanding interest in people, cultures and societies of the world was first sparked while he studied politics at the University of Southampton in England. We asked Richard to share with us what he has learned from traveling in both a video and a question and answer session.\nExpedition Leader Richard Butler\n20 Questions with Richard\n1. I never leave home without saying goodbye to my family.\n2. On my first TCS World Travel expedition, I was in charge of the luggage for 92 travelers on our trip to some of history\u2019s Lost Cities. Being responsible for 200 pieces of luggage as the group visited 10 countries was a real challenge to say the least.\n3. On our trips, one thing that never ceases to amaze me is the friendliness, warmth and sincerity of the people in every country we visit.\n4. A place I thought I\u2019d dislike, but I fell in love with was Timbuktu in Mali. It\u2019s such an arid country with many historical connotations of difficult travel, as well as its symbolism for Europeans as the end of the world. In fact, Timbuktu has a fascinating culture and history, it was integral to the learning and knowledge base of our entire civilization, and it still holds its place in current affairs.\n5. My absolute favorite place in the world is home. It is where any travel starts and finishes, and it puts into context all the places we visit.\n6. One place I haven\u2019t seen yet, which I\u2019m dying to visit is Zanzibar. I remember at university, I discovered in the library archives a British Foreign Office report on the Commonwealth Territories of Zanzibar and Pemba. It was from the mid-\u201960s and was a compendium of everything that happened on the islands in the preceding year. I was fascinated by it and I have always wanted to visit that wonderful place it described.\n7. If I could travel with anyone, dead or alive, it would be a former American president who could give me a clear sense of the international relations between countries, which make the world how it is today.\n8. A place I would definitely go back to is Antarctica\u2014and I\u2019d do a \u201cPolar Plunge\u201d in the icy waters.\n9. The one moment from my travels that I will never, ever forget was learning how to be an elephant mahout in Chiang Rai, Thailand.\n10. The best thing I\u2019ve ever brought home from a trip was a pair of handmade paddles from Papua New Guinea. They were carved from local wood in a traditional design in a village in the Sepik River Basin.\n11. My favorite place to shop is Cambodia. There are so many different souvenirs: carved Buddhas, beautiful hand-woven silks, silver jewelry and more.\n12. Some of my favorite countries to eat in are Sri Lanka for its mild and tasty curries, Vietnam for its wide variety of dishes and Argentina for its steaks.\n13.

        "raw_content": "E-Waste Management Market 2025 Leading Companies- Boliden AB, Stena Technoworld AB, Electronic Recyclers International, Inc., Sims Metal Management Ltd., MBA Polymers\n(Telecom-NewsWire.Net, July 10, 2018 ) E-waste or electronic waste is the discarded electronic or electrical devices and equipment. An electronic/electrical device reaches to the recycle stage due to end of its life cycle, new innovations in technology, or owing to the changing expectations of the consumers. The reduced life span of electrical, electronic and consumer electronic devices (mobile phones, TVs, computers, fridges, washing machines, and others) has already led to a significant amount of e-waste being generated and it is increasing exponentially. The increasing desire of people for adopting newer and technologically advanced devices has led to generation of tons of e-waste across the globe. These products contain materials having high value, at the same time, they can lead to environmental pollution if incinerated or land filled.\nThere are many factors driving the e-waste management market globally. The continuous innovations in electronics and electrical industries along with the migration from analog to digital technologies have led to tremendous increase in the e-waste being generated, thereby fueling the global e-waste management market. Furthermore, the awareness about harmful effects caused by e-waste materials to environment and health of living beings has significantly contributed to growth of e-waste management market worldwide. In addition, the requirement to recycle and reuse the valuable substances/minerals present in electrical and electronic devices is another factor bolstering the global e-waste management market. The global e-waste management market is further strengthened owing to a number of government rules being implemented for the regulation, reuse and recycling of e-waste.\nRequest a Sample Report at https://bit.ly/2wMXU08\nLack of awareness regarding efficient and low cost recycling process, especially in non-developed regions, leads to higher cost for recycling the e-waste, thereby limiting the e-waste management market in such regions. Another major challenge for global e-waste management market is unlawful dumping of e-waste materials by developing nations into remote locations of emerging regions. This leads to misuse of e-waste and being hazardous to environment and health. Moreover, the awareness about e-waste management is much lesser in developed regions which in fact produce large amount of e-waste materials.\nWith rapid advancement in technologies for the development of electrical and electronic devices, the amount of e-waste materials generated is believed to increase exponentially year on year, thus providing opportunities for global e-waste management market. Initiatives taken by leading electronic manufacturers (such as Dell, HP, Cisco, etc.) towards effective e-waste management methods, thereby promoting similar practices in order to get environment friendly certifications from third party auditors are expected to be key opportunity areas for the players in this market.\nInquiry before Buying at https://bit.ly/2IK1soI\nThe global e-waste management market has been segmented based on recycler type into glass recycler, plastic recycler, metal recycler, and printed circuit board (PCB) recycler. Furthermore, the market is classified on the basis of material recovery as metal, plastic, and glass including others. In addition, the global e-waste management market has been segmented based on source type into household appliances (washing machines, refrigerators, air conditioners, etc.), entertainment & consumer electronics, and IT & telecommunication (computers, phones, printers, etc.).\nThe global e-waste management market has been geographically segmented as North America, Europe, Asia Pacific (APAC), Middle East & Africa (MEA) and South America (SAM). Currently, North America is the largest producer of e-waste materials, which the region exports to developing nations for recycling, dominates the global e-waste management market. The cheap production cost of advanced electrical and electronic products and large base of users in APAC are believed to spur the e-waste management market significantly in the region. The major players operating in this market include Aurubis AG, Global Electric Electronic Processing Inc., Boliden AB, Stena Technoworld AB, Electronic Recyclers International, Inc., Sims Metal Management Ltd., MBA Polymers, Inc., Umicore S.A., Tetronics Ltd., and Enviro-Hub Holdings Ltd. among others.\n- Aurubis AG\n- Global Electric Electronic Processing Inc.\n- Boliden AB\n- Stena Technoworld AB\n- Electronic Recyclers International, Inc.\n- Sims Metal Management Ltd.\n- MBA Polymers, Inc.\n- Umicore S.A.\n- Tetronics Ltd.\n- Enviro-Hub Holdings Ltd.\nComplete Report is Available at https://bit.ly/2rIXYJm",

        "raw_content": "Blogging A-Z Challenge Day 1: April\nToday, the first of April, marks three important occasions: the start of April (go figure), April Fool's Day and my best friend's birthday.\nWhen I woke up this morning and checked my phone, I caught a glimpse of the date and it made me realise something. This year is going by so quickly! It really doesn't feel like we are a third of the way through 2012.\nApril Fool's Day is always a bit of fun, even though I totally suck at it. At my primary school, everyone used to always try and prank each other but it never really seemed to work. I have tried a few things here and there but none have ever been as successful as I had hoped. I have always wondered how someone even dreamt up such an idea, too. Call me crazy, but I bet it was a teenager.\nThe most significant event on this day is my beautiful best friend Mel's birthday! Today she turns sweet sixteen. Happy birthday Mel \u2665\nAnd there you have it, Day 1 of my Blogging A-Z Challenge is complete!\nLabels: a, blogging a-z challenge, day 1\nthelifeandtimesofphoebe is back in action!\nHello my Angels! I'm sorry I've been MIA as of late but I promise I will be back to my frequent blogging from now on!\nI have basically been offline recently because I am in my exam week now. I have the day off today so I thought it would be a good time to update my blog and say a big hello to all my lovely followers/readers!\nI never really get stressed during my exam periods but for some reason this time I have been stressed beyond belief! I feel like I am struggling to hold it together. I have never felt so out of control before so I am freaking out, which isn't really helping me at all!\nYesterday I had my English exam which consisted of an essay on Shakespeare's Othello. I can't exactly say that essay writing is my forte; I prefer my more relaxed and personal blogging style, so I am thinking that I have most likely failed that exam. My second exam was French Oral, which always freaks me out! I just get really nervous and ramble on to the point where what I am saying no longer makes sense to me. My teacher also looked completely daunting and didn't smile at all the whole time which threw me off a bit.\nThis Sunday marks the start of the Blogging A-Z Challenge, so look out for my first post! I am so excited to be doing this, and I hope you guys will like my posts!\nPhoebe's perspective on being a girl.\nBeing a girl is a tough job, but someone has to do it. In my opinion, I much prefer being a girl rather than a boy, for the following reasons. They are pretty obvious reasons, but with my own personal opinion.\nFashion is what I love more than anything else in the world! It is so emotive and expressive and individual. Fashion can tell you a lot about a person, as well as reveal your personality and true self to others. Like loads of teenage girls all over the world, my life revolves around fashion. I love it, live it and breathe it. Girls have so much more variety when it comes to our fashion. We have two separate wardrobes; one for summer and one for winter. We also have so much more variety when it comes to the garments themselves. Tops, skirts, pants, dresses etc make choosing an outfit more enjoyable, but also relatively stressful. Do not even get me started on accessories, hair and make up possibilities! My personal favourite item of clothing would be a flowing, floor length ball gown with diamonds to accessorise. Not that I've ever worn that before, but one day I will. And it will be awesome.\nI love the whole fangirl part of being a girl too. People call us crazy, but I much prefer the term dedicated. Only yesterday, I plastered my bedroom wall in photos of One Direction in order to win a competition. I swear I get more obsessed with them when I look at it! In true dedicated fangirl style, I have left it all on my walls. I regret nothing.\nThe whole aspect of being a housewife-slash-mom makes me love being a girl even more! I go to an elite all-girls private school in Sydney's eastern suburbs and they are constantly encouraging us to be our best, and to excel in our fields and all that jazz. In fact, I was once told that my school doesn't offer Food Tech is because, and I quote \"Sceggs girls don't grow up to be housewives.\" I personally have very old fashioned values, and all I really want to do is become a housewife and a mom. Don't get me wrong, I am all for women in the workforce and all that, but it's not really something I desperately want for myself. I do aspire to go to university and graduate and get a good job that I love, but once I get married I want to settle down to raise my children.\nI'm not a feminist and to quote the amazing Marilyn Monroe, \"I don't mind living in a man's world, as long as I can be a woman in it.\" I don't really care if I am considered inferior to men, as long as people realise what I am capable of and don't treat me like women in the 1950's were treated, which was like complete idiots, then I'm happy.\nThe average life of a teenage girl is similar to an episode of Pretty Little Liars, well, minus the everyday murder and blackmail. Keeping secrets from those closest to us is almost second nature. I would be lying if I told you that I tell people everything going on in my life. There are even things I keep from my twin, who is the closest person in the world to me.\nJust some general facts about us girls..\n1. Opening up to people can be really hard for us, so if a girl ever pours her heart out to you, make sure you listen. It shows that she trusts you, and you shouldn't betray that trust.\n2. Don't ever tell a girl that she is ugly or fat when you don't really mean it. Ever. I mean, it is probably the worst thing you can do to a girl. It is something that we may carry for a lifetime and can even lead to self harm and starvation. Think before you open your mouth.\n3. Treat us right, or don't be surprised if one day we get up and leave you. A girl's heart is not a simple toy. You can't just break it and expect it to be put back together again overnight. It can take weeks, months, even years, for a girl's broken heart to heal.\n4. It's not enough to just tell a girl that you love her. If you truly love her, prove it. Show her how much you love her and how much she truly means to you.\nThrough all of the bitching and the boy dramas, I still love being a girl and I wouldn't change it for the world!\nSpeaking from the heart,\nMy weekend away.\nHello my angels! I hope you all had a fabulous weekend, I sure did!\nMy weekend started on Friday afternoon when I went roadtrippin' (as I like to call it) with my mom and Emma. Three and a bit hours later we arrived at our destination: Bathurst. Well, O'Connell to be exact. My mom's really close friend who she met on the first day of college owns a guest property up there called 'Yarrabin' were you can horse ride, bush walk, feed the many animals, swim in the freezing pool and relax in the lovely spa, among other things.\nOnce a year for the past seven years, a bunch of girls from my primary school have been going up for an annual 'Mother/Daughter Weekend'. It doubles as a bonding experience as well as a fun weekend away. I love it because I get to catch up with girls I only see once a year and also because I love to horse ride.\nI have been horse riding for as long as I can remember. I can't remember the exact age I was when I got on a horse, but I was quite young, four or five maybe. Not many people know that I can ride, but I absolutely love it. It is so relaxing and the perfect way to de-stress and clear your head. My mind goes a million miles an hour but when I get on a horse it literally slows down to a crawl. I feel so calm and peaceful when I ride. I don't own my own horse or ride competitively.\nThe trails at Yarrabin are very quiet and after all these years I know them off by heart. The majority of the trails we ride on go through the extensive forests on the property. For those of you who have never been to Australia, our idea of a forest is made up of gum trees, stringybark, eucalyptus and lots of native shrubs. The main colour palette in the forest consists of greys, browns and dark greens, with a hint of yellow. We often see kangaroos too, but they can be hard to spot as their fur is the same colour as the grass and tree trunks.\nI love coming up to the country. It is so nice to get away from the city and forget about everything, even if it is only for a few days. The best thing, besides the riding, is catching up with my amazing friends Courtney, Addie, Mel and Winnie. And Emma, but she's my twin (or Twindizzle, as I like to call her) so I see her everyday. The six of us get on so well and we always have so much fun when we catch up.\nOur weekend consisted of riding, deep conversations in the spa, eating oreos with peanut butter, sherbert straws and loads of lollies, staying up all night, taking about two hundred photobooth pictures on my Mac alone, feeding the pigs, rolling down the hill, Singstar, attempting to play darts, numerous Polariods, dancing, making our tiny cabin as messy as possible, watching cheesy TV shows like Big Time Rush, lying under the stars and screaming What Makes You Beautiful at the top of our lungs at least fifteen times a day. All in all, an amazing weekend!\nThese three pictures are my favourites! I think they represent us really well; fun-loving and totally crazy!\nFrom L-R: Courtney, Me, Mel, Winnie, Emma and Addie.\nOf course, there are always downsides to any upside, and this weekend was no exception. I won't go into detail, but all I will say is this. People are completely unexpected. You may think you know a person but then they do something that completely changes your view of them. Sometimes you may have to secretly listen in on a conversation to find out how certain people really feel about you. But you can't let the haters get you down. As long as you have fabulous friends in your life, who needs people who don't need to be there?! Send your time with people who deserve your attention. People who matter to you.\nTo quote my beautiful mother: Friendships are finite, they won't last forever. Some may last until death and others may only last a few weeks.\nAll I can say is that I hope this one lasts.\nI have often been told that I look much older than I am. Sometimes people don't believe me when I tell them how old I actually am. Just today, some guy told me that I looked at least 20.\nMore than once, someone out of my ideal dating age range has hit on me. I will admit that it is flattering, but I would much prefer it if they were my age or just slightly older, not early 20s and rather seedy looking. When I sense that someone is hitting on me and they fit the latter description, I actually say to them that I am only 16 and the look on their face is priceless! It is a mixture of disbelief and WTF. Oh, how I love tripping people out! It happened a fair bit when I went Europe in 2009. When we went out, more often than not the waiter would set a wine glass in front of me. I would never say anything as I thought they weren't actually being serious, but when they started pouring the wine, I had to kindly let them know that I was in fact, only 14.\nSure, I do look older than my actual age, which is sixteen, but I only look it. I don't necessarily act it. While I do have more maturity than most people my age, I still love doing crazy and stupid things. I love being childish too.\nI still love to run around in the rain.\nI still laugh until I cry.\nI still occasionally act like an idiot.\nI still talk way too loudly in public.\nI still act completely irrational.\nI still occasionally cry when I don't get my way, but not as often as I did when I was 3.\nI still get over excited about small things.\nI still love to roll down grassy hills.\nAnd I still love jumping castles.\nThese are things I may never grow out of. And I couldn't care less. What is life without having fun and taking risks? I may as well screw up now, while I'm young and it isn't too much of a big deal.\nGrowing up doesn't necessarily freak me out, what freaks me out is the fact that I could potentially lose my identity in the process. I don't want to be perfect, and I certainly won't conform to someone else's ideas of perfection either. In the meantime, I'm still going to act like a little kid while I can.\nYou only live once and I'm going to live my life for me, and no one else.",

        "raw_content": "Home Home Page APD Captain Fernandez: \u201cRed light cameras are about public safety\u201d\nBy Reggie Connell\nI hate red light cameras. Who doesn\u2019t?\nI\u2019m not going to get into specifics about my ire for them, but it has merit. Trust me.\nOkay\u2026 well I will get into a little of my angst about RLC\u2019s\u2026 first of all they are sneaky. They sit on a pole and judge you, and they judge you without direct interaction\u2026 Then a month later you learn in the mail of your infraction. It\u2019s frustrating and maddening.\nOkay, my venting is over.\nI know my readers are shaking their heads \u201cyes\u201d emphatically and agreeing with every word I write and adding their experiences to the disdain they hold for RLC\u2019s. And I hate to trick readers who are in agreement with my premise, but here is the thing\u2026\nWe may be wrong.\nSpend some time with Captain Randy Fernandez and Lieutenant Steve Brick of the Apopka Police Department, and they might change your mind. They are advocates for the ugly black boxes which are sprinkled all over Apopka.\nFernandez and Brick insist the RLC\u2019s are 100% about public safety, and they make a good case for it.\nI pointed out the report on RLC\u2019s by the Florida Department of Highway Safety that states both crashes and revenues are up\u2026 which would suggest that revenues are the primary reason if public safety has not improved, but Fernandez pointed out an alternative cause \u2013 growth.\n\u201cWhat you have to look at is the increase in driving and in community growth,\u201d said Fernandez. \u201cWe wrote more tickets and responded to more calls in 2016. There is growth in the area. It\u2019s expected that with growth and increased driving there will be an increase in crashes and revenues.\u201d\nIn Fernandez\u2019s viewpoint, it is entirely about public safety and changing the way drivers are thinking behind the wheel. And in Apopka, the statistics show a different outcome than the statewide report indicates.\n\u201cWe have not seen the same results in this community. We are modifying behavior. One of the deadliest crashes is an intersection T-bone. Red light cameras modify driver behavior that would create that type of crash.\u201d\nIt applies in particular to brand new drivers who have not built up years of driver behavior, according to Fernandez.\n\u201cWe\u2019ve all been driving for a long time,\u201d Fernandez says. \u201cBut the 16-year-old who just got their license is just beginning their driving behavior. The next generation will be better drivers. Every generation is going to be better.\u201d\nThey also take exception to the notion that cameras are being put in places with a high volume of traffic as opposed to where there are safety concerns.\n\u201cWe have intersections that don\u2019t produce, but they modify behavior,\u201d said Brick. \u201cWe are changing the philosophy of stopping at red lights. Either way, we are focusing on community safety. At Sheeler and 441, pedestrian injuries and fatalities are down from 2007-current than from before we installed a red light camera, and the rate of red light infractions are down as well.\u201d\nFernandez also points out that RLC\u2019s are only one part of APD efforts to improve public safety on the Apopka roads.\n\u201cThe red light camera is not the pill that cured the disease. It is a component. But pedestrian access, sidewalks, etc. are also a part of the improvement.\u201d\nHe also insists that the revenues from the Red Light Camera Program are not the focus.\n\u201cThe money is not important. We want the program to pay for itself. And it\u2019s the violators who pay for it instead of it being an additional tax.\u201d\nAccording to Apopka Public Information Officer Robert Sargent, the net revenue from the red light camera program is $700,626.58 for 2016 which sounds like a lot of money but put into perspective with a budget of over $100 million; it amounts to less than one percent. In fact, the entire category of revenues generated from fines and forfeitures is 5% of the City of Apopka budget revenue.\nHere is how it is described in the budget:\nFINES AND FORFEITURES \u2013 5% of this year\u2019s general fund budget\n\u201cThe City accounts for revenues generated from traffic tickets and code violations in this category. This source has decreased by approximately .4% due to a decrease in traffic light detection device infractions. The long-term outlook for this source is not good. The state is taking a larger and larger share of the ticket revenues to support the cost of the courts. Therefore this revenue source may be increasing now, but could decrease in the long-term.\u201d\nAnd Fernandez can foresee a day where no red light cameras exist.\n\u201cIt wouldn\u2019t hurt my feelings if we had no red light cameras and no one running red lights. It\u2019s about the public\u2019s safety, not the cameras.\u201d\nIt wouldn\u2019t hurt my feelings either, but after spending time with the APD, I better understand their use. And I have to admit; my driving behavior has changed for the good.\nReggie Connell is the Managing Editor of The Apopka Voice.\nPrevious articleEverything you want to know about red light cameras\u2026\nNext articleLocal politics should stay local\nI am so tired of the red light camera debate, and of the state dragging their feet on the issue of getting rid of them. Old boring news! If they are voted down by a majority vote, I will be surprised at the Apopka City Council, but at least, that is what I hope for.\nSo our beautiful tall Confederate statue memorial of Johnny Reb has been taken from us at Lake Eola per Orlando Mayor Buddy Dyer and sent to the cemetery. I hope when they get around to opening the time capsule that was discovered inside the statue that they will find a message that whoever complained about the statue in the future or moves it again will be forever cursed! That would serve complainer Porter and Mayor Dyer right! So glad the gentleman that runs the cemetery said anyone is welcome to protest over there, on the 120 acres, because maybe I will go protest the Union memorial there that it needs to go, and be moved back up North where it belongs!\nI looked at the billboard again on 436 before Long John Silvers and yes, it is 25,000 homeless children within 15 miles, and the message is on both sides of the digital billboard that changes\u2026\u2026and\u2026\u2026I see the City of Apopka has put up a paid digital billboard advertising the 4th of July fireworks at Northwest Recreation Complex!!!\nI don\u2019t mind the cameras; if you break the law, pay your fine. What I do mind is the absolute rip-off and injustice of the $250, NON-REFUNDABLE fee to dispute the ticket. Even if you win you have to pay. Hey Captain Randy Fernandez and Lieutenant Steve Brick, if it\u2019s not about the money, get rid of the fee.\nI also see the city or maybe the school, is sodding the area of the two ball fields around the ninth grade center area. Nice big rolls of sod that looks like giant rolls of carpet, picked up with a forklift stuck through the center hole. Nice. Love sod done that way. My sod the city laid down in my front yard, after the boring machine work, is growing and green and doing good. I just needed a little more to fill all the area in that is bare where they dug. Maybe I will email Glen to see if they can bring a few more pieces\u2026\u2026\u2026.\nThe rat race is over and the rat won again\u2026..Georgia special Congressional race. I thought there was a federal law against federal elected officials influencing or pulling for, or against candidates, if you are elected to a federal position, but Donald Duck Trump gets on tv and said that Ossoff would raise people\u2019s taxes\u2026..the rules don\u2019t apply to him, I suppose, like all the other rules that he ignores.\nTo the lady looking for recommendations for places that you can take your dog, that was posting on Apopka Then and Now website\u2026\u2026google Bring Fido.com\u2026\u2026\u2026.and you will find loads of restaurants, campsites, parks, events, etc. that you can take your dog with you. Just leave them home for fireworks events!\nThis comment is addressed to the Apopka Chamber of Commerce: I have lived in Apopka now for over 15 years, I do cross the 441 light on Piedmont on average about of 2500 times a year if not more, I\u2019ve done plenty of business in Apopka,ranging from tires to auto parts,repairs,restaurants and many different shops. About 3 years ago my Dodge Durango started having PCM problems, needle gauges dropping,stalling at random times. On my way to Russell automotive to put my truck under diagnosis, my truck stalled right in the middle of the light, and I was caught by the red light scam. Armed with receipts and proof that my vehicle was experiencing serious trouble and the fact that I did not run that red light in the past after crossing that intersection sometimes 6 times a day while shopping for so many years. I went to the court to listen to the Judge admonish me about \u201cthe statutes\u201d. I could have started my defense to reply to him that The Constitution clearly states that Police officer has to be present and witness the alleged action. I was shut down in seconds, no chance to even talk. Ok I say,here is my $300. Ever since that date I have avoided shopping or doing business in Apopka, 5 years now,heading for a 6th . I do my shopping now Outside of Apopka, and give my business to municipalities that do not support the red light scam. You can all argue and reply to me that hurting business is unfair and I can tell you in truth,Apopka will not see one more dime from me until All red light tickets are abolished . So here is your economic calculator of the damage your red light scam is doing: My Average expense in shops a year in Apopka before the ticket was around$1200-$3000 per year vs $150 profit for the City and $150 for the scammer contractor.( They have Federal charges against them in other states) Only the Chamber of Commerce understands the value of paying costumers\u2026Keep it up Apopka, your competitors in near cities love my business, I am sure your merchants are reaping great profits and they do not care if I no longer shop there\u2026.\nAccidents are up. Panic breaking and accelerating through intersections is up. Every ticket proves that redlight cameras don\u2019t stop redlight runners. Stop the charade! If it is about the safety, HIRE MORE OFFICERS!!!! It is ridiculous for Apopka to spend $100,000.00 per month rent for these cameras and our city isn\u2019t safer and only ATS and politicians are profiting! It is time for Apopka to lead the way and eliminate these cameras like other progressive cities in Florida. We tried this experiment for 10yrs and it\u2019s time to eliminate the cams\u2026.\nBTW I have spoken to Apopka Home Depot to purchase a Window AC unit around $600, They had it in stock,so I grabbed my keys and then I remember, Apopka ripped me off with a red light ticket\u2026 Turned around drove away and bought it somewhere else . Today I have spoken to one the best Optometrists in the area, I was ready to schedule a $100 eye exam,until I saw the location,..No go, I will have to drive and find another one,perhaps Altamonte,it\u2019s a longer drive but I do not have to deal with revenue collecting scams. Needed new brakes two weeks ago, I did not even looked at Apopka stores, got them somewhere else. The most expensive purchase they\u2019ve lost from me few months ago was a new Transmission, yes I looked at the Apopka stores,same price shorter distance to drive,but I am no longer interested in doing business with Apopka merchants until they make the city understand that red light tickets, are a dishonest scheme,keep the cameras for accident recording if you wish,but as long as the city continue to issue red light tickets,you the merchants will be the ones affected.\nI don\u2019t mind the red light cameras most of the time, but some intersections are too big to cross when the light turns yellow and your about to cross the intersection and then the light turns red while you\u2019re half way through the intersection something needs to be fixed.\nKathleen Carscadden June 21, 2017 at 8:26 pm\nIf red light cameras were not about revenue there would have been ZERO issues when the city increased the length of yellow lights. Instead, the state, noticing reduced REVENUE from the red light cameras ordered the city to reset the lights to the state MINIMUM length. The revenue, presumably, increased to acceptable levels.\nApopka Dave June 22, 2017 at 10:50 pm\nHere\u2019s how to prove the politicians are Lying! If it is about safety, then take all the money you make and donate it to the high schools so they can have a driver\u2019s education program, or donate the money to charity!!!!!!!!! Folks, accidents are up, people are not bringing their business or businesses here, this program is doing harm to our community, but our politicians are bought and paid for with as little as a campaign contribution. Sadly, after 2.5 hours of negative aspects to this program only 2 commissioners had the internal fortitude to vote no. Your spinster mayor wanted to ignore facts and play pr sales guy. I hear there is an election coming\u2026\u2026. Out with the anectdotes and in with the future!!!! FYI, I have not gotten a ticket, I don\u2019t think people should run red lights, I have seen 3 accidents caused by these cameras, and an officer is always better than a pole!",

I hope you\u2019re having an excellent 2010 so far.\nI had a great holiday \u2013 as you probably know if you\u2019ve watched the last few videos.\nI\u2019m so lucky my aunty and uncle invited us to spend New Year\u2019s with them \u2026 it was really awesome.\nAnd I\u2019m excited about The Daily English Show in 2010. Last year we were off air quite a bit with stuff like moving and technical issues. But we\u2019re pretty much settled in now and I\u2019m happy we\u2019re back into it. And I\u2019ve got lots of ideas for stuff I want to do here in Auckland. Places I want to take the camera and people I want to interview \u2026 so I think it\u2019s going to be a good year.\nSpeaking of exciting, I have uploaded my Danjo video, finally. These are the glasses I\u2019m wearing in the video.\nIf you don\u2019t know what Danjo is, there\u2019s a pretty good explanation here.\nIt\u2019s a dance. And it\u2019s an internet meme \u2026 from 2008 actually. But last year when we went on a trip around Hokkaido, knf though it would be fun to film me doing the dance in different locations around Hokkaido. And so we did it and it was fun \u2026 and it was also hard work \u2026 because I\u2019m not a very good dancer and knf\u2019s a very strict director, so he made me to the dance over and over again. So that was just a bit of fun. It won\u2019t really help your English. But, if you\u2019re interested, follow the link and go and check it out.\nToday is Friday, so we\u2019re studying a song.\nAnd the song we\u2019re studying today is another internet meme. But this one is not from 2008 \u2013 it\u2019s new, hot off the press!\nThe name of the song is: Pants On The Ground and it\u2019s by a guy called General Larry Platt who was a contestant on American Idol. And may be the next Susan Boyle.\nThe song\u2019s about those people who intentionally wear their pants really low on their hips \u2026 which it looks cool and sexy or ridiculous depending on your taste.\nphoto by Malingering\nAnd General Larry Platt is clearly not impressed with the low pants look:\nPants on the ground, pants on the ground\nCall yourself a cool cat, lookin' like a fool.\nI think Larry Platt is very cute and I love the song. It\u2019s very catchy.\nSo go and check it out if you haven\u2019t already - and some of the remixes are very good too.\nKia ora in Stick News today, two men in New Zealand appeared in court after they stole a remote control thinking it was an iPod.\nOn the 2nd of January a 23-year-old and a 21-year-old broke into a school in Rotorua, New Zealand.\nThe Daily Post reported the pair forced a door open in the maths building and walked inside, setting off the alarm system.\nBefore they ran away, they saw an overhead projector remote control sitting on a desk.\nApparently, they thought it was an iPod, so they stole it.\nThe men were remanded on bail. And will be sentenced on the 10th of March.\nOn And that was Stick News for Friday the 15th of January.\nToday\u2019s word is cool cat.\nCool cat is slang for a person who is cool.\nFor example: General Larry Platt is a cool cat.\nBecause 7, 8, 9.\n#720 How much were they?\nStep 1: Read Jake's lines.\nStep 2: Repeat Jake's lines and talk to Sarah.\nJake The Big Day Out\u2019s on today, isn\u2019t it?\nSarah Yeah, I saw a few buses go past this morning actually, full of people who were obviously on their way there.\nJake You didn\u2019t want to go?\nSarah Nah, the tickets are quite expensive.\nJake How much were they?\nSarah About 150 dollars I think.\nJake Just for one event?\nSarah Yeah, but there are lots of bands playing \u2026 so I guess it\u2019s worth it if you\u2019re a fan of some of the bands that are playing.\ncool cat at Dictionary.com\nlist of top Pants On The Ground remixes\nartist: kitaygorod\ntrack: Fazan (Dimasta mix)\n#1138 Danjo, Pants On The Ground, iPod/Remote Thef...",

        "raw_content": "What Fills Our Thoughts?\nIn his Meditations and Discourses of the glory of Christ, John Owen addresses the primary reason why we do not have Christ\u2019s glory burning in our mind:\n\u201cThoughts of this glory of Christ are too high for us, or too hard for us, such as we cannot long delight in; we turn away from them with a kind of weariness: yet are they of the same nature in general with our beholding of the glory of Christ in heaven, wherein there shall be no weariness, or satiety, unto eternity. Is not the cause of it, that we are unspiritual or carnal, having our thoughts and affections wonted to give entertainment unto other things? For this is the principal cause of our unreadiness and incapacity to exercise our minds in and about the great mysteries of the Gospel, 1 Cor. iii. 1\u20133. And it is so with us, moreover, because we do not stir up ourselves with watchfulness and diligence in continual acting of faith on this blessed object. This is that which keeps many of us at so low an ebb, as unto the powers of a heavenly life and spiritual joys.\u201d (Page 33)\nIs he not right? Many times we find far greater joy and delight in other things than Christ\u2019s glory. Is that not a clear indicator of the state of our heart? Are we truly basking in the wonderful truths of the gospel each day? Or do we know there is much more to be experienced in our daily life? Could it be that it is our lack of truly seeing Christ\u2019s glory?\nThe Mystery of Change\nThe great classic, no doubt, about the glory of Christ is John Owen\u2019s Meditations and Discourses of the Glory of Christ. One of the main points is that there can only be true change into Christ-likeness as we behold His glory:\n\u201cSome men speak much of the imitation of Christ, and following of his example; and it were well if we could see more of it really in effect. But no man shall ever become \u201clike unto him\u201d by bare imitation of his actions, without that view or intuition of his glory which alone is accompanied with a transforming power to change them into the same image.\u201d (Page 33)\nThe main reason I started this site is a deep-felt need to be changed into His image, which can only happen by the Holy Spirit: \u201cAnd we all, with unveiled face, beholding the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from one degree of glory to another. For this comes from the Lord who is the Spirit\u201d (2 Cor. 3:18). Beholding Christ\u2019s glory is God\u2019s means for true change.\nThe Glory of God\u2019s Love\nAs John Owen continues in his Meditations and Discourses of the Glory of Christ, he emphasized that it is all centered in Christ. How can we know the glory of God\u2019s love? It is only in and through Christ that we can know it:\n\u201cThe apostle declares it in the next words, 1 John iv. 9, \u201cIn this was manifested the love of God towards us, because that God sent his only-begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him.\u201d This is the only evidence given us that \u201cGod is love.\u201d Hereby alone is the divine nature as such made known unto us, \u2014 namely, in the mission, person, and office of the Son of God; without this, all is in darkness as unto the true nature and supreme operation of this divine love.\u201d (Page 30)\nWe can only know and experience God\u2019s love in and through His Son. Jesus is the full manifestation of God\u2019s love and when we receive Him by faith, we\u2019ll be the eternal recipients.\nGod\u2019s Glory is Revealed and Manifested in and Through Jesus\n\u201cIt is in Christ alone that we may have a clear, distinct view of the glory of God and his excellencies. For him, and him alone, has he appointed the representative of himself unto us.\u201d (Page 29).\nFrom John Owen\u2019s Meditations and Discourses of the Glory of Christ\nOnly God\u2019s Glory can Satisfy our Heart\nAs I\u2019m slowly reading through Meditation and Discourses on the Glory of Christ, John Owen has a very profound point regarding God\u2019s glory:\n\u201cMoses, when he had seen the works of God, which were great and marvelous, yet found not himself satisfied therewith; wherefore, after all, he prays that God \u201cwould show him his glory\u201d, Exod. xxxiii. 18. He knew that the ultimate rest, blessedness, and satisfaction of the soul, is not in seeing the works of God, but the glory of God himself. Therefore did he desire some immediate dawnings of it upon him in this world: \u2018I beseech thee, show me thy glory.\u2019\u201d (Page 28)\nWe normally greatly desire to see God in action, while not truly focusing on God Himself. If God would only do \u2026 Moses had seen some of God\u2019s greatest works in this earth, but that did not satisfy him. Actually, it was only a \u201cmeans\u201d to the ultimate \u201cend\u201d\u2013the glory of God Himself. What about us? Are we more focused on what God can do for us, or are we truly focused on God Himself? Lord, help us to truly focus on who you are!\nApart from Jesus We Cannot Know God\nDecember 20, 2015 by Jan Blonk 1 Comment\nIn his Meditations and Discourses on the Glory of Christ, John Owen emphasized that there can be no true knowledge of God apart from Christ:\n\u201cMen may talk what they please of a light within them, or of the power of reason to conduct them unto that knowledge of God whereby they may live unto him; but if they had nothing else, if they did not boast themselves of that light which has its foundation and original in divine revelation alone, they would not excel them who, in the best management of their own reasonings, \u201cknew not God,\u201d but waxed vain in their imaginations.\u201d (Page 26)\nAll notions of God, apart from the revelation of Christ in the Bible and through the Holy Spirit, are wrong in their core being and can be labeled as \u201cknew not God.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "They may forget what you said, but they will NEVER forget how you made them feel~Carl W. Buechner\nI was at my daughter\u2019s softball game the other night and I observed an interaction between 2 team mates that literally sat me back in my seat and made me think of the quote above.\nThe home team was down by 1 run in the 5th inning with 2 outs. The other team had scored 4 runs this inning, which had given them the lead. A ground ball was hit to the shortstop, she confidently picked up the ball and tossed it to her teammate that was covering second base. The second baseman, who is not as skilled as some of her other teammates bobbled the ball and ended up dropping it\u2026the runners were safe at FIRST AND SECOND. The runner that was on third, had tagged up on seeing the drop and effortlessly crossed the plate as the ball was being recovered and thrown back to the pitcher. Another run had scored.\nThe shortstop, turned to the second baseman, shot her a dirty look and let out a frustrated sigh as she walked back to her position. When she reached her place on the field, she folded her arms across her chest and shook her head with obvious displeasure with the second baseman. Immediately we all watched with compassion as the second baseman\u2019s head and shoulders dropped down. She flatly moved toward her spot between 1st and 2nd base, visibly aware of the shortstops feelings.\nThe game continued and the next batter was up. Now there were runners on 1st and 2nd. The next pitch was sent over the plate, the batter swung and it was like d\u00e9j\u00e0 vu . This time, the second baseman shot with determination over to second base and it was obvious that she was intent on making the play. She used all the fundamentals she was taught. She kept her eye on the shortstop; she made sure her toe was on the bag, she lifted her mitt and right hand ready to receive the toss. To her surprise, and everyone else\u2019s, the shortstop did not toss the ball.\nShe held on to it herself and tagged the bag. She looked the second baseman straight in the eye, and then turned, dropped the ball and took off running from the field. The second baseman just stared at her in the most deflated way I\u2019d ever seen, dropped her mitted hand and started at a snails pace for the dug out.\nThe second baseman, is one of those wonderful kids who is frail in frame, more academic than athletic, not as confident or comfortable with herself as some of her peers, and not the most popular in her class. She has a shy smile, quiet and nice to everyone. She is the kind of kid who plays rec softball to be able to hang out with other kids her age. She truly wants to learn the game, get better, and gives her best each game. She is sensitive and gets frustrated when intention doesn\u2019t match up with skill and gets easily embarrassed.\nThe shortstop on the other hand is naturally gifted with sports, is confident with herself and is a nice kid in her own right. She is highly competitive by nature and wants to WIN! She gets good grades, hangs with the popular crowd and forgets many times that not everyone can naturally do what she is able to do.\nNow some may say that these are kids. Kids are less thoughtful or are more inconsiderate of other\u2019s feelings. I disagree. I have seen many adults, in all kinds of situations, through their own SELFISHNESS simply make others feel BAD\u2014and they feel justified and entitled to do so.\nIt\u2019s about being so egotistically focused on the \u201cI, ME, MINE\u201d, that they only consider their own feelings, their time, and what they want to get out of a particular situation. There is not thoughtfulness or sensitivity in the delivery to the other party because they are so focused on what they believe is keeping them from GETTING WHAT THEY WANT or WINNING.\nIn my opinion, anytime one person makes another person feel bad, INTENTIONALLY, it\u2019s ABUSE. I don\u2019t really understand how one would think that treating others badly is going to make them more respected, or have people jumping for joy at the opportunity to work with them. Abusiveness is more about insecurity\u2014that\u2019s noted in Psych 101, it\u2019s characterized by degrading, demeaning, disrespectful and unacceptable treatment of others. It\u2019s such a backwards way of thinking.\nIt\u2019s a fact that one who treats others with dignity, compassion and kindness will get listened to more, a more collaborative effort, a genuine \u201clike and respect\u201d from others; all which increase the odds of getting the result you really want. Who do you feel more compelled to work with\u2026someone who is mean to you or someone who is respectfully trying to assist you? Someone who is making you feel bad or someone who inspires you to get better?\nThe shortstop had a choice\u2026she could have said, \u201cWe missed it that time, but good try, and we\u2019ll get it next time.\u201d She could have said, \u201cGood effort, I\u2019ll work with you so we can get that play down.\u201d But she chose the option that had the second baseman feeling bad about herself AND about the shortstop.\nThere was a lost leadership opportunity that would have led to a completely different outcome.\nI wonder how that approach not only affected that girl, but also the rest of the team. I wonder how the rest of the team will feel about the shortstop because of her choice. I wonder how it will affect the shortstops reputation in other group situations in the future. Hmmm\u2026.\nPeople may forget what you say, but they will NEVER forget how you made them feel.\nTags: Communication, feelings, leadership, teamwork\nFunny how people treat other people isn\u2019t it! In the heat of the moment you think it is the correct thing to do but looking back you realize it wasn\u2019t. Sometimes you get that second chance to make things right but sometimes you go to the well to many times and people just can\u2019t forgive or forget. People need to be very careful how they treat people.\nPeople who act like that will usually find out after a while that they have upset enough people that they have no one else to make fell bad \u2026because no one is around them.\nAnd you\u2019ll remember forever and ever. I still remember words such as that from when I was a child. How profound Pamela. As adults we often forget how our very actions and choice of words can harm another even when he had no intention to do so. Frustration, stress, time restrains all add pressure to \u201cget the job done\u201d and we often react TO others instead of engaging WITH them. Thanks for the reminder to \u201cmark my words\u201d. I will slow down. I think if I did that the temptation to use \u201cbitey\u201d words won\u2019t be there. Lovely post. Thank you!\nThese true life stories are always the best to discuss issues aren\u2019t they? It takes but a moment to tear something down and doesn\u2019t require much skill. On the other hand, it takes time to build something up and requires skills. Since the former is easier, many people resort to that for results never realizing there is long term damage.\npeople may forget what you said and people may forget what you did but they will never forget how you made them feel. -Maya Angelou\nGary S. Hart\nYes, a leadershYes, a leadership opportunity was missed, but not by the shortstop.\nRaising three children, 15 years of coaching, 5 years of running a HS baseball league, and 30 years as a sales executive taught me something I passed on to my son when he was made captain of his HS baseball team.\n\u201cWhen the team wins, they get the credit, and when they lose, you own the responsibility.\u201d\nOur children understand the responsibility of leadership and personal accountability from the way my wife and I live.\nMy wife owns a dance school with a mission to teach teamship and real self-esteem. Our dancers learn to be comfortable with their bodies and in their skin. Roles are given on merit, not body type. Many of our dancers go to the top summer programs in the country like ABT, Alvin Ailey, and Joffrey and go on to dance professionally. But that does not lead to unequal treatment.\nThis is accomplished with top down leadership, the elimination of negative competition, backbiting and gossip, and instructors who are good role models who have our desired character traits and uphold and reinforce our policies and guidelines. My wife owns the accountability and responsibility for all of the results.\nIt wasn\u2019t the shortstops leadership failure. It was the coach and parents who failed the shortstop, the 2nd baseman, and the entire team.\nThanks for allowing this old codger for sharing his opinion.\nGary\u2026. thank YOU for sharing that. It IS difficult to take on the accountability for other people.\nJacquesOlyup\nI see your blog needs some fresh articles. Writing manually is time consuming, but there is solution for this hard task.\nHello,I read your blog named \u201c\u201cThey will NEVER forget how you made them feel.\u201d \u00ab The Great Workplace\u201d like every week.Your humoristic style is awesome, keep doing what you\u2019re doing!

        "raw_content": "Homeless man threatened with arrest for trespassing for using a public restroom in Duluth, Minnesota.\nIn Duluth, Minnesota a homeless man was threatened with arrest by a security guard for using a public bathroom too many times.\nWell, I suppose we should give this homeless guy the benefit of the doubt; but, we shouldn't be too quick to jump all over this security guard--- perhaps the guard thought he was committing a crime because he thought the guy wanted to keep warm?\nThis guy could have just been making up the excuse that he had to pee so he could get warm.\nI mean, look; society has to have some limits and restrictions on this kind of deviant behavior. People have to realize they can't just be walking into places to pee or keep warm. We need security guards, the police, the courts and politicians to protect us from such deviant behavior.\nLet the guy go buy a house and he won't be homeless. I'm sure if he walked down the street he could find a kind and sympathetic lender at one of Duluth's local banks like US Bank, Wells Fargo or CITI Bank... none of these bankers are going to allow people to be homeless in the middle of the winter with sub-zero temperatures. We have compassionate capitalists at the helm in our country.\nPoverty is not an accident...\nWhat actions does it take to eliminate poverty?\nWorkers without jobs are going to be poor.\nThe primary solutions to ending poverty is:\nFull employment with real living wage jobs.\nWe need a \"21st Century Full Employment Act for Peace and Prosperity\" which would mandate the president and Congress to work together to attain and maintain full employment.\nEnforce the United Nations' Universal Declaration of Human Rights.\nThe peoples of the world say \"good-bye\" to Comrade Nelson Mandela... how will we remember this hero?\nHow will we celebrate Nelson Mandela Day... in the true spirit of what he really stood for, or as the phony caricature now to be created in his passing by the imperialists in their attempt to maintain domination and control?\nNelson Mandela Day: Celebrating Madiba`s revolutionary legacy\nBlade Nzimande, General Secretary\nOn Saturday 18 July 2009, on the 91st birthday of one of the greatest heroes produced by the South African revolution, our movement and government will be launching what will be the first of an annual event, the Nelson Mandela Day. On this day we shall celebrate, honour and seek to emulate the revolutionary example set by Cde Nelson Mandela, former President of the ANC and the first President of a democratic South Africa.\nThe SACP pledges its full support to this and will seek to actively participate in the Nelson Mandela Day activities, both as part of the Tripartite Alliance and in its own right as an independent political party of the working class. Celebrating the contributions and sacrifices of Madiba also coincides with the SACP`s 88th anniversary, founded on 31 July 1921 in Cape Town. During this anniversary month of the SACP, we shall also be celebrating the contributions of Nelson Mandela and many other revolutionary patriots, with whom we have been in the trenches for the past 88 years.\nAs the SACP has correctly and consistently argued before, Cde Nelson Mandela should in the first instance be recognized and celebrated as a revolutionary, and indeed one of the most prominent revolutionaries of the 20th century. Much as we appreciate that Nelson Mandela is respected globally by a wide variety of people drawn from across all social classes, it is important that the legacy of Nelson Mandela as a revolutionary, a former combatant of Umkhonto WeSizwe, and a leader of a revolutionary national liberation movement, must never be allowed to disappear.\nNelson Mandela became what he is today, principally because he understood that our revolution was about the liberation of millions of ordinary workers and the poor. Madiba also understood that much as leaders are important in any revolution, but it is the masses themselves who are their own liberators and architects of their future. It is important to constantly elevate this reality not only rhetorically, but practically, by continuing to mobilize the mass of our people to be at the forefront of consolidating and deepening our national democratic revolution.\nIt is even more important today to highlight the revolutionary ideals that Madiba embodies, as our movement is faced with many challenges now that it leads government in our country. As we have pointed out before, liberation movements in power face many complex and new challenges, some of which have led to the degeneration and even decimation of many former progressive liberation movements. Some of these challenges include managing the relationship between the state and the movement, and overcoming the temptations of replacing the movement with the state, and combating the dangers of using state power to advance narrow class interests that are at variance with the core historical values of many such movements. Therefore, celebrating Nelson Mandela Day must centrally be about safeguarding our movement as a people`s movement, placing service to the people and progressive transformation of the lives of ordinary people at the centre of its agenda.\nOur country is launching Nelson Mandela Day in the midst of one of the worst global capitalist economic crisis in the history of capitalism. The current working class struggles underway in our country are in part also a response to the effects of the impact of the current capitalist crisis on ordinary workers and the poor. This crisis, as has been highlighted by many others, is not merely a financial or economic crisis, but it is a crisis of capitalist values and a crisis of the ideology of the \u2018free-market` and its current neo-liberal variant. It is also for this reason that Nelson Mandela Day must also be a re-affirmation of the values he has come to represent - that of social solidarity, selflessness, dedication, equity and fairness! It is through the consistent inculcation of these values that we can roll back the greed, corruption and selfishness of capitalism.\nThe SACP will be using this anniversary month, and in celebrating the life of Madiba, to convene public Red Forums to assess the impact of this crisis on the lives of ordinary people and discuss practical ways and means to involve our people in mitigating its impact. The SACP, over the coming few months, will mobilize as many of its cadres as possible to spend 67 minutes and more on the mobilization of our people in the struggle against the current crisis.\nOur Red Forums also aim to expose the extent to which ordinary people are suffering, and come up with concrete alternative proposals guided by the Framework agreement adopted at NEDLAC as a response to the crisis.\nNelson Mandela spent most of his life in the struggle being in the trenches with communists and trade unionists in, amongst others:\nThe Defiance Campaign and SACTU-led workers struggles of the 1950s\nUnderground and armed struggle from the 1960s into the early 1990s\nDebates about the direction of our struggle on Robben Island\nThe mass struggles, negotiations and the adoption of the Reconstruction and Development Programme (RDP) in the early 1990s\nThe struggle to roll back and defeat the counter-revolutionary violence waged against our movement in KwaZulu-Natal and other parts of the country\nThe setting up of a democratic government, and the struggle for the reconstruction and development of our country after the 1994 democratic breakthrough\nIn all the above and many other struggles that Madiba participated in, he placed great emphasis on the unity of the Tripartite Alliance, and the need for consistent unity in action. Nelson Mandela Day should therefore also be a day of celebrating his role in building a united Alliance that led the struggle to defeat the apartheid regime and build a democratic South Africa.\nThe launch of Nelson Mandela Day also coincides with the year in which the SACP will be celebrating its adoption of the Native Republic Thesis by its predecessor, the Communist Party of South Africa, in January 1929. The adoption of this Thesis laid the foundation for the building of the Tripartite Alliance from the 1930s onwards.\nIt is therefore important that we also use Nelson Mandela Day to build upon President Jacob Zuma`s continued commitment to Nelson Mandela`s legacy of placing our Alliance at the centre of consolidating and deepening the national democratic revolution. President Zuma has correctly emphasized that the unity of the Alliance is not a luxury but an absolute necessity in strengthening our democracy.\nOf course we could have given Madiba no better birthday present than the ANC`s overwhelming April electoral victory, despite a concerted media onslaught on the ANC and its allies in the run up to this election. The election campaign was a reflection of Alliance unity in action at its best. Let Nelson Mandela Day be another important platform to safeguard the unity of our alliance as the best way to safeguard April`s electoral victory as a victory for the workers and the poor of our country.\nTo Madiba, the revolutionary, we say, Happy Birthday and Happy Nelson Mandela Day!\nAsikhulume!!\n- See more at: http://www.sacp.org.za/main.php?ID=3081#sthash.Uv65Mzz5.dpuf\nUmsebenzi Online - Volume 8, No.12, 15 July 2009\nwww.sacp.org.za\nThe SACP is a partner in the Tripartite Alliance consisting of the African National Congress and the Congress of South African Trade Union\nHomeless man threatened with arrest for trespassin...\nThe peoples of the world say \"good-bye\" to Comrade...",

        "raw_content": "December 4, 2017 January 25, 2018 Karuga\nThe Towerlight looks at the new and continuing events and initiatives making headway in the coming year. Join us as we dive in to the future and predict what will occur in 2018. Compiled by Desmond Boyle, Tim Coffman, Marcus Dieterle, McKenna Graham, Bailey Hendricks, Meghan Hudson, Kerry Ingram, Karuga Koinange, Matt McDonald, and Michael Mills.\nFile photos by The Towerlight staff; photo illustration by Jordan Stephenson/ The Towerlight.\nRead the News previews for 2018 here.\nRead the Arts & Life previews for 2018 here.\nRead the Sports previews for 2018 here.\nUpdate: This story has been updated with a preview of the NFL playoffs.\nSGA\u2019s relaunch of the #NotAtTU campaign continues\nTowson University\u2019s Student Government Association officially relaunched their #NotAtTU campaign Nov. 29 and 30, and that campaign will continue to grow and evolve next year, according to SGA Director of Diversity and Inclusion Russhell J. Ford.\n\u201cOne of my goals for #NotAtTU next semester would be to focus on communities within the LGBTQ+ umbrella,\u201d Ford said. \u201cBasically not really focusing on one sort of umbrella of an identity, but also really shining and embracing identities that may or may not be visible.\u201d\nFord said she hopes to tackle topics such as biphobia and issues facing non-binary and non-cisgender students.\n\u201cI\u2019m going to work with the CSD to even learn more about how I can word a lot of things so I don\u2019t come across as non-inclusive,\u201d she said.\n#NotAtTU first launched in May 2016 under then-SGA President Kurt Anderson following the November 2015 #OccupyTowson sit-in to address hate/bias incidents and reporting procedures at Towson.\nSGA President James Mileo tasked Ford with the relaunch as part of a five-pronged plan of action in a statement he released after violent white nationalist riots in Charlottesville, Virginia in August.\nThe Towerlight will continue to provide updates on the SGA\u2019s initiatives in the coming year.\nTowson examines building-naming policy\nTowson University\u2019s Student Government Association unanimously passed a resolution in support of renaming Paca House and Carroll Hall residence halls on Nov. 28.\nThe resolution highlighted that both William Paca and Charles Carroll, the namesakes of the residence halls in question, owned slaves.\nThe resolution, which was introduced by SGA Senator Alexander Best on behalf of SGA Vice President Breya Johnson, asserted that a name change would be in compliance with University System of Maryland Chancellor Bob Caret\u2019s statement from Dec. 11, 2015 on the USM\u2019s commitment to diversity and inclusion.\n\u201cMany Towson University students, faculty, and staff alike find it reasonable to discontinue the ongoing pattern of memorializing the names of certain wealthy figures and families whose influence, affluence, power, and prominence came at the expense of countless others whose names go unacknowledged and their contributions under-recognized,\u201d the resolution said.\nIf a formal request to rename Paca and Carroll is approved by the majority of constituents from the University Senate, SGA and/or Towson University Staff Council, the request will then be forwarded to TU President Kim Schatzel for consideration of the renaming.\nMembers of Towson\u2019s Organized Network of Student Resistance advocated for the diversification of building names at a University System of Maryland regents meeting in September 2016.\nThe Towerlight will continue to provide updates on the building-naming process in the coming year.\nBurdick is (finally) reopening\nConstruction on Burdick Hall began August 2015. Since mid-September of 2015, the area between the West Village bridge and Burdick Hall has been closed for construction. With Burdick Hall\u2019s original projected completion date of Fall 2017 pushed back, Burdick Hall will finally be open to show off its expansion next semester, in spring 2018.\nThe expansion of Burdick Hall will add about 94,000 square feet to the Hall\u2019s existing 140,000 square feet and will feature a Ninja Warrior-style obstacle course, recently named \u201cThe Jungle.\u201d All Campus Recreation facilities will be closed from Dec. 19 through Jan. 26 to do finishing touches on the expansion and to train new staff. The expanded Burdick Hall will be officially open for the first time for use on Jan. 27 at 9 a.m. Campus Recreation is hosting a \u201cGrand Opening Celebration\u201d for Burdick Hall at noon on Jan. 31.\nContinuing construction\nConstruction around campus is continuing and is as abundant as ever. With Burdick Hall\u2019s completion finally in sight, now the University has begun to focus on other big construction projects around campus, such as the new science facility. The new science facility\u2019s construction is officially underway. It will be located between Stephens Hall and the 7800 York Road building and is predicted to be completed in fall 2020.\nStarting mid-2018, the University Union\u2019s renovations and expansion will begin; and next spring, the Residence Tower is set to be completed.\nAfter the new science building, the next big construction project on the University System of Maryland\u2019s list of priorities includes the new College of Health Professions building. The University hopes new health professions building, slated to open in 2023, will help to put Towson graduates into the high-demand field.\nMaryland gubernatorial elections\nIn 2018, Maryland will hold elections for governor. The Republican and Democratic primaries will take place on June 26, 2018, and the general election will take place on Nov. 6, 2018. Eight Democratic candidates have declared that they are running for governor. There have been no Republicans who have declared to be running against incumbent Governor Larry Hogan, who is predicted to seek re-election in 2018.\nThe eight democratic candidates include Prince George\u2019s County Executive Rushern Baker; Ex-NAACP chief Ben Jealous; Baltimore County Executive Kevin Kamenetz; Montgomery County Sen. Richard Madaleno; consulting firm owner Maya Rockeymoore Cummings; best-selling author, entrepreneur and former adviser to Hillary Clinton, Alec Ross;\nBaltimore attorney Jim Shea; and former policy director for former first lady Michelle Obama, Krishanti Vignarajah.\nAlbums to keep an ear out for in 2018\nThis group has been in a pattern trying to become more pop than rock lately. While they are one of the longest-standing punk-pop bands, the quality of their songs can be a little unpredictable. Let\u2019s see just how far this balancing act on Patrick Stump and Co.\u2019s part can go. Coming out on Jan. 19.\nThese indie pop darlings have been making a name for themselves with their self-titled debut and their long-titled album in 2016. Their most recent album had undeniable pop production and songcraft but did feel a bit lengthy in places so we can only hope to see what the next step is for these guys.\nWhile there is no set announcement, the rock power trio have been in the studio and are rumored to release a new album next year. While the band has had no major missteps in the past, it still has the power to impress and we should expect nothing less from the flagbearers of anthemic rock.\nHealth and beauty products taking 2018 by glam\n\u2013ColorPop Luster Dust Loose Highlighters: This launch will be the brand\u2019s first foray into the loose-highlighter world. The highlighters are set to come in three different shades, each finely milled with rich pigmentation.

The plot follows the relationship between an adolescent girl and her sexually abusive uncle, exploring ideas of control through the metaphor of driving. Attendance is recommended only for mature audiences. \u201cOthello\u201d is the second production and is being directed by Peter Wray. This Shakespearean classic tells the story of a young Venetian army general and his ensign; their relationship drives a theme of betrayal, revenge and repentance through the plot. \u201cHow I Learned to Drive\u201d will be running from March 7-15, and \u201cOthello\u201d will be running from April 5-14.\nBaltimore-area festivals happening in the new year\nFrom Friday, April 27 at 4 p.m. until Saturday, April 28 at 9:30 p.m. at Druid Hill Park will be the sixth annual Charm City Bluegrass Festival.

My advice: if you don\u2019t already own a MoviePass, get one.\nTowson football gears up for 2018 season\nTowson endured a rocky 2017 season, but the team got a lot of experience in different situations and showed grit throughout the year.\nThe Tigers concluded their season with a 29-10 victory at Johnny Unitas Stadium over Rhode Island.\n\u201cWe left Rhode Island last year and started planning for this,\u201d Head Coach Rob Ambrose said following the win.\nThe primary question entering spring is who the starting quarterback will be. Oregon transfer Morgan Mahalak went down in the first quarter of the season opener and did not play for the rest of the year. After the win over Rhode Island, Ambrose announced that Mahalak suffered a concussion and would likely not be playing again for the Tigers.\nRedshirt freshman quarterback Ryan Stover started for almost the entire season and played as well as one could expect out of a young, inexperienced player. He finished the season with 2,001 yards through the air and 11 passing touchdowns. He also contributed 335 rushing yards and two rushing touchdowns.\n\u201cHe\u2019s going to have a chance at that starting job,\u201d Ambrose said. \u201cBut if Morgan leaves, I only have two quarterbacks. That\u2019s not enough. Not in this league, and not at this level, so I\u2019ve got to go get one and the question is \u2018Am I going to get another young guy or get an old guy as an insurance policy?\u2019 I don\u2019t know yet.\u201d\nThe offense was inconsistent the entire year. Some games they looked like a dangerous unit with explosive big-play potential, but other times they could barely muster a first down. Ambrose expressed the need for a go-to receiver the entire season, and it remains to be seen whether that player is on his roster or will be added during recruiting.\nWide receiver Jabari Greenwood showed nice hands and a wide catch radius over the course of the year, hauling in 53 catches for 616 yards, but he failed to reach the end zone. Towson will need to play with more of an edge next year in order to limit how much the team settles for field goals.\nThe Tigers have some questions on the other side of the ball as well.\nThe team is graduating several key defenders, including defensive linemen Kanyia Anderson, D\u2019Sean Cummings and Clifton Jones, but Ambrose asserted that the younger players will step up to the challenge now that they\u2019ve gotten some playing time in the rotation.\n\u201cThey were young, talented dudes without a lot of experience,\u201d Ambrose said. \u201cNow they\u2019re a little bit older dudes with a whole lot of experience and a whole lot of confidence.\u201d\nTowson ranked as the fourth best passing defense in the Colonial Athletic Association (CAA) and its heavy pass rush was a big reason for that.\nJunior linebacker Diondre Wallace led the linebacking core as he tied for seventh place in tackling leaders among the conference, racking up 52 tackles on the season. On the back end, redshirt junior defensive back Monty Fenner patrolled a secondary that played sound football and did not give up many big plays.\nYounger players who will step into bigger roles, such as redshirt sophomore linebacker Keon Paye and redshirt sophomore defensive back Justice Pettus-Dixon, will need the guidance of seniors in order to grasp their positions better.\n\u201cThere is no substitute for experience,\u201d Ambrose said. \u201cI\u2019m going to expect them to be better.\u201d\nWomen\u2019s basketball looks to secure CAA title\nTowson looks to secure its first ever Colonial Athletic Association (CAA) title under first-year Head Coach Diane Richardson. She took over the program this summer after Niki Geckeler resigned after four years in charge.\nRichardson has her work cut out for her, as the Tigers have not had a winning season since their 2011 campaign, and have won just eight conference games out of 36 over the last two years.\n\u201cI would like us to be efficient even before the conference, so that we go in business as usual when we get to the conference schedule,\u201d Richardson said. \u201cWe\u2019ve got a tough out of conference schedule \u2026 so I think that is gonna prepare us for the conference.\u201d\nRichardson is still searching for the best lineup out of her young group of players early on this season.\n\u201cThat\u2019s something we\u2019re still gonna work with to make sure that we get the best out of them when they\u2019re out there and not run them too hard so that they get tired and slack off,\u201d Richardson said.\nTowson holds a 2-4 record so far, but senior forward Mary Cuevas said that the key to getting wins is sticking with the routines that the team has formed.\n\u201cWe just gotta keep working and people need to get in the gym every day,\u201d Cuevas said. \u201cIt\u2019s all muscle memory.\u201d\nBy the time conference play rolls around, Richardson hopes that her team can adjust to the up-tempo style that she utilized during her time as an assistant coach at West Virginia.\n\u201cWe work hard, push the ball on offense and we are going to get after you on defense\u201d Richardson said. \u201cMy philosophy is if we\u2019re pushing the ball in transition [our opponents] won\u2019t have time to set up, so that\u2019s our game plan is to continue to keep the game at our pace.\u201d\nThe Tigers look to turn their season around before they open up conference play on Friday, Dec. 29, against Northeastern at SECU Arena.\nA preview of the NFL playoffs\nThe NFL has been marred by anthem protests, poor television ratings, injuries and mediocre play this season. However, all of that can be righted with the postseason fast approaching. As frustrating as the NFL has been this year, all it takes are a few thrilling playoff games to make fans forget such an arduous regular season.\nThe AFC has failed to add any excitement to the NFL over the course of the regular season. Unsurprisingly, the New England Patriots and Pittsburgh Steelers sit atop the AFC. Both teams have proven to be two of the most successful, consistent and well-run franchises in all of sports. Aside from the Patriots and Steelers, the AFC is unimpressive. However, come December and January anything can happen in the NFL. Here\u2019s how I see the AFC playoff picture shaking out.\n1st Seed: New England Patriots\nQuarterback Tom Brady is on the verge of completing another incredible season. Brady is on pace to lead the league in passing yards at the age of 40. Patriots fans have been spoiled with arguably the greatest coach and quarterback of all time. The rest of the NFL will just have to wait for Tom Brady and head coach Bill Belichick to retire. The only remaining challenge for the Patriots is a week 15 matchup at Heinz Field against the Steelers. Even then the Patriots shouldn\u2019t be too concerned. They\u2019ve dominated the Steelers in recent years, winning four straight games dating back to 2013 with an average margin of victory of 15.\n2nd Seed: Pittsburgh Steelers\nWide receiver Antonio Brown and running back Le\u2019Veon Bell are tops in the league at their respective positions. Coming into the season there was very little doubt about what the Steelers offense could do. Surprisingly, the Steelers secondary has overachieved and has been one of the best in the NFL. If the Steelers can live up to their potential and not play down to poor teams, there\u2019s no reason they shouldn\u2019t lock up the second seed in the AFC.\n3rd Seed: Jacksonville Jaguars\nBehind running back Leonard Fournette and their vaunted defense, the Jacksonville Jaguars are in a position to win their division for the first time since 1999. Quarterback Blake Bortles has been an effective game manager and hasn\u2019t made the big mistakes that hurt the Jaguars in the past. In the final week of the season, the Jaguars and Tennessee Titans will square off for the AFC South crown. Once again, the Jacksonville defense will come away with the big plays to win the game.\n4th Seed: Los Angeles Chargers\nThe AFC West has been a mess all season. The Kansas City Chiefs started out hot but have fallen off since winning their first five games. The Chargers started slow, but quarterback Philip Rivers has landed them back in contention. When wide receiver Keenan Allen is healthy, he is one of the best receivers in the game, and Rivers looks for him often in big situations. On defense, pass rushers Melvin Ingram and Joey Bosa have wreaked havoc on opposing quarterbacks. Watch out if the Chargers get into the postseason; no team wants to see them.\n5th Seed: Tennessee Titans\nQuarterback Marcus Mariota has underperformed this season, but the Titans defense has put them in a position to make the postseason. The Titans have a top-five rush defense and a stellar offensive line. A solid front seven is a key component of any team hoping to make a Super Bowl run, and the Titans have that. Offensive tackle Taylor Lewan is as tough as it gets. Lewan is the type of guy you\u2019d love to have on your team. Teammates love him and opponents absolutely despise him.\n6th Seed: Baltimore Ravens\nThe Ravens have a Super Bowl caliber defense; there\u2019s no doubt about that. They lead the league in interceptions and harass opposing quarterbacks. However, the Ravens offense has left a sour taste in many fans\u2019 mouths. When the Ravens offense is bad, it can be painful to watch. Although they rank second to last in the league in total offense, a 44-20 win over the Detroit Lions proved the Ravens aren\u2019t entirely inept on offense. If the Ravens can throw the ball down field and remain aggressive, they could pose a threat to the Patriots and Steelers.\nThe NFC has saved the NFL this year. With the AFC underperforming, the NFC has delivered some exciting football. The NFC playoff picture is loaded with teams that could make a run at the Lombardi Trophy. Full young explosive players on the offensive and defensive side of the ball, the NFC playoffs are going to be can\u2019t miss TV. Here\u2019s how the seeding in the NFC will play out.\n1st Seed: Minnesota Vikings\nVikings quarterback Case Keenum has been one of the best stories in the NFL this season. He has led the Vikings to eight straight wins and refuses to relinquish the starting job at quarterback \u2013 even after quarterback Teddy Bridgewater was medically cleared to play. Wide receiver Adam Thielen has quietly been one of the best wide receivers in the league, ranking fourth in yards with 1,056 through 12 games. The Vikings defense might be outperforming their offense. They rank second in the league in total defense and are absolutely suffocating opponents.\n2nd Seed: Philadelphia Eagles\nThe Eagles are arguably the most well-rounded team in the NFL. They have a ton of depth and very few weaknesses. Quarterback Carson Wentz is playing at an MVP level and might very well win the award. The Eagles defense has been dominant at the point of attack. No team can run on massive defensive tackles Fletcher Cox and Timmy Jernigan. Even if they don\u2019t win the Super Bowl this year, the Eagles are set up to make a run at the Lombardi for years to come.\n3rd Seed: New Orleans Saints\nThe Saints are the most dangerous team in the NFL if their defense can play well. With running backs Mark Ingram and Alvin Kamara, the Saints have a lethal two-headed monster in the back field. Having a great running game takes some of the pressure off quarterback Drew Brees. Brees can still sling it all over the field with wide receivers Michael Thomas and Ted Ginn Jr. The NFC needs to be on the lookout for the Saints. When all\u2019s said and done, they have a great chance to hoist the Lombardi Trophy.\n4th Seed: Seattle Seahawks\nIt was very hard not to put the Los Angeles Rams in this spot, but the Rams have a much tougher schedule than the Seahawks down the stretch. The Seahawks will host the Rams in week 15 which will essentially be for the division title. If the game was in Los Angeles, the Rams might have shot. There\u2019s something about going to Seattle late in the season that doesn\u2019t bode well for opponents. The Seahawks may win the NFC West, but I can\u2019t see them making a Super Bowl run with a depleted secondary and a porous offensive line.\n5th Seed: Los Angeles Rams\nIn head coach Sean McVay\u2019s first year, the Los Angeles Rams have exceeded all expectations. This team is loaded with young talent on both sides of the ball. They may be a year ahead of their time, but the Rams still present a tough out in the postseason. The Rams defense is more than capable of coming away with takeaways, and their offense is full of big play potential. Regardless if they make it deep into the postseason, the Rams are still an exciting team to watch and have a bright future ahead of them.\n6th Seed: Carolina Panthers\nIt comes down to the Panthers and Atlanta Falcons for the final playoff spot in the NFC. With two games left against the Saints, the Falcons have a much tougher road to the sixth seed. In a stacked NFC South, the Panthers have been somewhat forgotten. Quarterback Cam Newton is healthy and using his arm and legs to lead the Panthers to victory. However, the defense is what sets the tone in Carolina. Behind linebacker Luke Kuechly, the Panthers boast a top-10 defense \u2013 couple that with previous playoff experience and the Panthers could be dangerous in the postseason.\nSuper Bowl LII: Eagles OVER Patriots\nAt the end of the day, it\u2019s Wentz who hoists the Lombardi Trophy. Brady doesn\u2019t go down without a fight, but the Philadelphia defense is too much to handle. Wentz will be more esteemed in Philadelphia than Rocky Balboa after delivering the Eagles first Super Bowl victory in franchise history.\n2018 year in preview building naming Burdick Hall construction election Football Laverne Cox NotAtTU Women's Basketball Year in Preview\nStudent aims to put suicide hotline on backs of OneCards\nProf. talks issue of policing in Baltimore\u2019s black communities",

For few of us, working in the office is quite fun and engaging, but there are some people, for whom, such a lifestyle has become an everyday routine. Their lifestyle is pretty monotonous and they don\u2019t essentially enjoy the tasks they\u2019re assigned with. Besides all that, the work culture and environment that one works in is very important, but not everyone gets positioned at work as per their choices and hence, the results too are not-so-satisfying. At times, they find it difficult to cope with the workload and other times, they are just hoping that life would surprise them in some way or the other.\nThese sketches perfectly describe the routine a corporate job brings to your life:\nHave you ever been in this situation or you know anybody who has experienced it?\nFacebook me @pkadam1\nHaha these are so true it\u2019s not even funny!!",

        "title": "Did CIA Director Michael Hayden Lie to Congress? | Time",
        "raw_content": "What Happens When You Lie To Congress?\nCentral Intelligence Agency Director Michael Hayden listens to questioning during a hearing before the House Intelligence Committee on Capitol Hill in Washington, Jan. 18, 2007.\nThe Senate report on the CIA\u2019s interrogation program included a lengthy section outlining ways in which former CIA director Michael Hayden misled Congress. It\u2019s against the law to lie to Congress, but proving that Hayden did that would be so difficult that it would verge on impossible, says a D.C. lawyer specializing in white-collar government litigation.\nThere are two statutes of U.S. Code that govern perjury before Congress. Section 1621 of Title 18, often called the \u201cgeneral perjury\u201d statute, prohibits individuals from lying to Congress while under oath, while Section 1001, also known as the \u201cfalse statement\u201d statute, covers testimony given while not under oath. A person convicted of perjury could face fines up to $100,000 or up to five years in jail.\nBut the narrow language of the statutes makes convictions extremely hard to come by. \u201cThe perjury statute is a technical statute,\u201d explains Mark Hopson, managing partner at Sidney Austin LLP\u2019s Washington office. \u201cIt is especially difficult, if not impossible to prosecute statements that may be misleading or evasive but subject to an arguably truthful interpretation.\u201d\nThe proof is in the numbers. According to Reuters, lawyer P.J. Meitl conducted a study in 2007 and found only six people who were convicted of perjury or related charges before Congress, going back to the 1940s. Two of the most famous convictions arose from the Watergate scandal during Richard Nixon\u2019s presidency.\nIn another notable conviction in recent memory, Clair George, a high-ranking CIA official in the 1980s, was found guilty of lying to Congress about his knowledge of the Iran-contra scandal, though he was later pardoned. And one of the highest profile cases in recent years ended in acquittal: legendary baseball player Roger Clemens was charged with lying to Congress in 2008 about his use of performance-enhancing drugs, but he was acquitted of all charges.\nHayden denies that he lied to Congress. But even if he were deliberately evasive or deceptive, it\u2019s likely that he wouldn\u2019t be convicted of any crime.",

        "title": "The Sony Hack, and Why Stolen News Is Still News | Time",
        "raw_content": "The Sony Hack, and Why Stolen News Is Still News\nThe Newsroom is over, but Aaron Sorkin\u2019s critique of the media is not. Writing in the New York Times, the screenwriter says that any reporter who is reprinting information released in a massive hack of Sony computers\u2013seemingly as retaliation for The Interview, a Seth Rogen comedy about an assassination plot against the leader of North Korea\u2013is \u201cmorally treasonous and spectacularly dishonorable.\u201d\nSorkin, as he admits, is an interested party: he\u2019s writing a movie about Steve Jobs that\u2019s the subject of some of the e-mails. I don\u2019t hold that against him, though. He\u2019s wrestling with a genuinely tough, disturbing subject, one that, when you start chasing down precedents and what-ifs, can make a hypocrite of just about anyone who argues it.\nIncluding me: just this year, I argued against people watching the execution videos released by ISIS. A beheading video was \u201ca deliberately filmed murder, a grisly performance meant explicitly to be shared for effect,\u201d I wrote. \u201cWatching them literally completes their purpose.\u201d\nBut I wouldn\u2019t argue against reporting that the ISIS executions happened. And like all analogies, this one breaks down on closer inspection. A hacked company e-mail is not the same as a murder is not the same as a stolen nude selfie. The Sony hack was (at least apparently) meant to expose and to punish; it\u2019s another kind of violation, and intended for media consumption. Journalists reporting on it are indeed doing the work the hackers wanted them to do.\nBut they\u2019re not simply posting raw hacked data wholesale. They\u2019re applying judgment\u2013not always correct judgment but judgment nonetheless\u2013and deciding what part of the information constitutes news. You might not think a Hollywood salary dispute, say, is important news, but if it were reported through normal means, no one would bat an eye at it.\nSo the real question here is: does information that otherwise would be considered news suddenly become Not News because it\u2019s given to you by bad people, through bad means, for bad reasons? To answer, we need to ask, to borrow a journalistic clich\u00e9, who, what, where, when, why, and how. Or at least four of them:\nHow: How did the Sony data come out? Because someone stole it, plain and simple. What\u2019s not plain and simple is whether that makes it off-limits. It would be nice if there were a plain and simple rule, and that\u2019s what Sorkin tries to set, arguing the legal standard of \u201cthe fruit of the poisoned tree.\u201d But\u2026\nWhen: Stolen info is not always off-limits, as he later notes: it wasn\u2019t in the case of the Pentagon Papers\u2013or, for that matter, in the main storyline of The Newsroom\u2018s final season, in which the ACN crew held fast to their right to report an international-news story leaked by a Snowden-esque government whistleblower. Dean Baquet, the editor of the New York Times, has said that the Sony data is \u201cnot the Pentagon Papers\u201d and yet \u201cwe have used documents surfaced by others.\u201d Reporters do traffic in stolen information and report on communications they\u2019re not supposed to have access to. The question is when: Which brings us to\u2026\nWhat: In other words, is any of this material legitimate news? Would we consider it newsworthy if it were obtained by other means? Certainly, a lot of the details the press has been picking over have been little more than gossip. (Then again, so is a lot of Hollywood news not obtained through stolen e-mails.) But whether or not you think that executives\u2019 racist jokes about President Obama are the equivalent of the Donald Sterling scandal, it\u2019s hard to claim, in the same year as the Sterling news, that they\u2019re not news at all. And if it\u2019s important\u2013indeed, scandalous\u2013that someone may be trying to punish a studio for offending North Korea, how is it not news (as the New York Times reported, using the e-mails) that that same studio asked filmmakers to change their movie to avoid offending North Korea in the first place? And if it isn\u2019t\u2026\nWhy: The critiques of reporting the data come down to the motives of the hackers. If (as is possible, though not definitive) they stole the documents to punish artistic expression, should news organizations have a higher bar because the source has bad motives? Should there be a lower bar for publishing stolen information from a whistleblower with good intentions? And who decides which intentions are which? News outlets decided that the information from the Edward Snowden leaks\u2013also called \u201cfencing stolen goods\u201d by some\u2013was important enough to publish. Snowden claimed patriotic motives\u2013but what if he didn\u2019t? Say he provided the exact same information, but did it with the express intention of bringing about the downfall of the United States. Would the same information suddenly become off-limits because of the mindset of the person who provided it?\nThat last question is the one that finally bothers me. I agree the press shouldn\u2019t be complicit in airing snuff films, disseminating stolen nude pictures, reprinting the Social Security numbers of people who work for a targeted company. I agree that \u201cWe can, and other people will do it if we don\u2019t\u201d isn\u2019t a good reason to run a story. \u201cWe\u2019ll get a lot of traffic from it\u201d is even worse. From all we can see, the Sony hack was a vile act done for vile reasons.\nBut I\u2019m also disturbed by the idea of the press deciding who\u2019s stealing information for the right reasons and for the wrong ones, and adjusting its definition of news accordingly. In the end, the right question to ask\u2013at least journalistically\u2013is, \u201cWould this be news if we got it under other circumstances?\u201d News judgment isn\u2019t easy, and it can often be wrong. But I\u2019d rather have news outlets judging news than judging their sources.",

        "raw_content": "Tooele County Health Department immunization coordinator Louise Ekenstam gets ready to give county worker Andy Tanner the DTaP shot, which protects against tetanus, diphtheria and pertussis Thursday morning at the health department building. Health officials are worried that the county\u2019s low number of reported whooping cough cases means that the disease is going untreated.\nRachel Madison\nHealth officials urge vaccination as whooping cough cases rise\nWhooping cough cases have been on the rise across the state and nation in recent years, but when it comes to Tooele County, only a small number of people have been officially diagnosed. That makes local health officials worried that many people with whooping cough are going untreated. Because of this, they\u2019re urging residents to get vaccinated \u2014 especially now that whooping cough season is underway.\nSo far this year, Tooele County has only had three cases of whooping cough \u2014 the common name for the disease known clinically as pertussis \u2014 according to the Utah Department of Health. Statewide, however, there have been 1,108 cases reported as of Nov. 10, according to UDOH epidemiologist Valerie Vernon. In Tooele County, the rate of cases per population is estimated to be 5.8 cases per every 100,000 people, while statewide the rate is 45.1 cases per every 100,000 people.\nVernon said this difference can mostly be attributed to less people in Tooele County being officially diagnosed with the disease. This could be because less people choose to go to the doctor or because there aren\u2019t as many clinics in Tooele County as there are in more populous counties.\n\u201cWhat we know about pertussis is that when adults get it, they just believe they have a really awful cold that won\u2019t go away,\u201d said Louise Ekenstam, immunization coordinator for the health department. \u201cThey can be sick with a cough for a good month, but they don\u2019t always seek medical care. For every case we do have, a lot more go undiagnosed because individuals won\u2019t seek medical care.\u201d\nEkenstam said this is a concerning trend because these people are most likely spreading the disease.\n\u201cDuring the holidays people are out shopping and eating, and if someone has whooping cough, they could be giving it to any child or adult they are around,\u201d she said.\nIn Utah, pertussis activity peaked during the 1920s with an annual average of over 3,900 cases for that decade. The introduction of a vaccine during the 1940s resulted in a dramatic decrease in cases, leading to a 90 percent reduction in total case counts by the 1950s, according to the UDOH. However, the number of cases reported statewide has been increasing since 2006.\n\u201cWe\u2019ve seen quite a bit of pertussis activity statewide,\u201d Vernon said. \u201cThe golden question is why is this happening? But there\u2019s no one answer to explain why. This is a multi-faceted problem.\u201d\nOne problem, discovered recently by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, she said, is that the vaccines aren\u2019t lasting for 10 years, as originally thought.\n\u201cChildren who are receiving their required vaccine for pertussis before entering seventh grade are coming down with pertussis four to five years later,\u201d she said. \u201cNow the CDC is researching this to see if we need to change the vaccine recommendations.\u201d\nVernon said another reason why pertussis could be more common statewide is that every four to six years there is an increase in the amount of cases because it\u2019s the natural, cyclical nature of the disease.\n\u201cPeople get it, it dies down and then it rears up again,\u201d she said. \u201cWe\u2019re in that window right now where people are getting it.\u201d\nEkenstam said the health department has given several pertussis vaccinations over the last couple of years, but still hasn\u2019t vaccinated even a third of the county\u2019s population.\n\u201cWe\u2019re just barely moving into pertussis season, but I do believe the first case I had this year was earlier than the first case I had last year,\u201d Ekenstam said. \u201cAs we start spending more time out shopping or around people for the holidays, that\u2019s when we start seeing an increase in numbers.\u201d\nPertussis is an infection that starts off as a generalized cough. Dawn Powell, a pediatric nurse practitioner at Stansbury Springs Health Center, said the disease becomes concerning when children start fits of coughing that impair their ability to breathe. Children most at risk are those who haven\u2019t received their full vaccinations yet. Infants are most vulnerable because they don\u2019t receive their first pertussis vaccine until they\u2019re two months old. It is recommended that children receive five doses of pertussis vaccination through the DTaP shot, which also protects against diphtheria and tetanus, by the time they enter first grade. After that, they receive a booster dose of the same vaccines, called a Tdap shot, before entering seventh grade. The highest rate of pertussis is seen in children under a year of age and those 5 to 14 years old.\nPowell said symptoms of pertussis are different in adults. Adults have a hacking cough that doesn\u2019t seem to be much different from a common cold, but the cough will last for months. If a child gets pertussis, they have a good chance of being hospitalized.\n\u201cEarly on, you\u2019ll see just common cold symptoms like sneezing, a running nose and a mild cough,\u201d Powell said. \u201cAfter a couple of weeks, the cold symptoms go away and the cough gets worse. You\u2019ll have coughing attacks, choking, difficulty breathing and make a whooping sound.\u201d\nEkenstam said it\u2019s important for people to get vaccinated because they\u2019ll be protecting more than just themselves.\n\u201cThe one thing that I want to stress with regards to vaccinations is that you don\u2019t just vaccinate to protect yourself,\u201d Ekenstam said. \u201cYou vaccinate to protect those you\u2019re around. If you are vaccinated, then you can\u2019t pass it on to children. If you\u2019re not, you can pass it on to someone you don\u2019t even know.\u201d\nLatest posts by Rachel Madison (see all)\nCheering Through Adversity - July 15, 2014\nCarving His Own Path - April 24, 2014\nOur Story Lives On - March 20, 2014",

The city ordinance, which has the weight of law on this subject, reads that only three days before, the holiday itself, and three days after the holiday, is it legal to shoot off fireworks.\nIt further states that no fireworks are to be allowed after 11 p.m. except on July 4, which extends the deadline to midnight. No mention is made in the ordinance as to size or type of fireworks; it is a very broad and all-inclusive law. So, the inclusive legal dates/times for fireworks in Tooele City are July 1 to July 7, 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. with the exception of the extra hour on the night of July 4.\nI hope our police have the manpower and the moral courage to bring the force of law on some of these law breakers. It is not a good sign of the moral health of a city, state or nation, when large numbers of people disregard and ignore (read, thumb their noses at) laws and ordinances that are meant for the well-being of all the people.\nThose of us who are not too fond of fireworks, are not out to spoil the fun of you who do like these traditions, and all that goes with it. We just wish you would consider obeying the laws concerning the subject. It is no fun for me to be lifted right out of my bed at 1 a.m. by something that is as loud as an artillery shell going off, and quite close to boot.\nToeele",

This wrinkle was made of granite, the very bed-rock of the earth when first it fell, a spattered drop, from the sun's cauldron. There are no fossils in the Blue Ridge granite, which proves that these aged mountains have never again been under water since God breathed life into the dust. But the sun shone and the rain fell, and the winds of long ago walked about over those rocks, and so those mountains that must have been as barren as lunar scenery were sculptured and gentled, and life appeared, we know not whether as the result merely of putting a pinch of dust, a drop of water, and a little light together, or whether because some unascertained seeds of life rained down on this globe from stellar space.\nToday, in the heart of those old mountains, you may find your heritage of beauty and wonder, the finished product of millions of years of life. As in a cathedral nave where one may admire the art of centuries, so one goes reverently up the glen called Pearson's Falls, where scenes from the story of life on earth are painted upon the carven walls and green windows. There, upon the brow of that tiny cavern, where a fine spray forever falls, hangs the weird, unmodern green of algae, first of the plants to enrobe the earth. Here are forests of mosses no higher than your thumb but higher far in evolution than the algae. Here the walking-fern steps daintily across the\nPhotographed by Donald C. Peattie.\npage 7 pear007.jpg rocks, root to tip and tip to root, recalling the days of the giant tree-ferns when lizards like elephants sloshed and hissed across the continent, and where now from a flowering dogwood tree a redbird starts with his magical cry. The great hemlocks sigh, the brook rushes garrulously, and then, above all other sounds, you hear the light thunder of the falls.\nHere, for thousands of years, the white sprite, the fall, has been in being, delicious, setting in motion a perpetual breeze which makes the maidenhair and the foam-flower to tremble ceaselessly upon their stalks, keeping a fleck of brown foam forever swirling about the little pool below.\nThe first white man to discover this Glen, so cleverly hidden in a fold of the mountains, may have been one of the settlers who reached this region upon the eve of the Revolutionary War, but more likely it was almost unknown, since even so recently as twenty years ago there was no road completely penetrating the Pacolet gorge, and fifty years ago there was no railroad.\nWhen the Asheville-Spartanburg railway, now the Southern, was looking for a pass through the mountains, it sent among others a young engineer, Charles William Pearson, down the river of the laughing name, Pacolet. It was then that was discovered the nameless glen with the rhododendron blossoms snowing on the pool. In course of time Pearson bought this as part of a great tract which he secured to himself and upon which he settled and lived to the end of his days. His life, however, was not merely that of a farmer. He served through the War Between the States, and was Captain of Company H in the 63rd North Carolina Regiment. He helped to locate the railroad from Salisbury to Asheville and from Asheville to Murphy and assisted in the building of many\npage 8 pear008.jpg other railroads of the South. His ancestry was a fine one, his ancestors having served the young state of North Carolina in official and judicial capacities. A pioneer, an engineer, a farmer, he was known everywhere as Captain Pearson, and his death removed one of the picturesque figures of the community.\nLiberal with his possessions, he allowed the generations of young folks to enjoy the falls, and here, in the days of yellow surreys and colored coachmen, parties of the happy youth came with basket and banjo to picnic on the great flat table-rock beside the pool. Folk who can remember Tryon ten years ago and more will recall in particular that loquacious, mendacious and friendliest of these drivers, Charlie Mills, who alone knew where the Dutchman's-breeches grew, who boiled the fragrant coffee and broiled the pungent bacon, and over the embers told tall tales of slavery days he had never seen.\nScientists came also, and here it was, if I am not mistaken, that the late Arthur Middleton Huger, of Charleston, discovered, somewhere in the 'nineties, the famous large red trillium that bears his name. In the same decade Mr. William Willard Ashe, North Carolina explorer for the Forest Service, penetrated the Pacolet gorge and collected rare new lindens and rhododendrons. Mr. E. C. Townsend, of Cornell University, explored the falls in 1897, and they were a favorite haunt of that eccentric, old-fashioned and insatiate naturalist, Samuel Green, who spent his life trying to improve the lot of his black brother and died, little appreciated, in Tryon in 1910, leaving behind him a fine collection of mosses, lichens, woods and leaves of North Carolina trees. Miss Margaret Morley, beloved towns woman, author of that charming animal story, \"Little Mitchell,\" the delightful travel book, \"The\npage 9 pear009.jpg Carolina Mountains,\" and several sage and tasteful studies of sex and love-life in nature, was the first to discover the walking-fern at Pearson's Falls. The falls were also visited by Dr. Ezra Brainerd, President of Middlebury College, Vermont, the most famous of specialists on the violet, and by that keen woodsman, T. C. Harbison, of Highlands, North Carolina, collector for the Arnold Arboretum. In 1928, Dr. Edgar T. Wherry, botanist and chemist, made soil tests at Pearson's Falls, and for many years more amateur collectors than it is possible to enumerate, and gardeners whose delight this natural garden is, have come to examine and admire.\nIn 1931, Captain Pearson's son was faced with the disagreeable realization that he ought, for economic reasons, to divest himself of some of his extensive acreage, and he decided to accept the offer of a timber company for the glen and the surrounding woodland. It seemed certain that those ancient trees, those stately tulip poplars, grave hemlocks and strong oaks must go to the moloch of the saw-mill.\nAt this juncture the Garden Club of Tryon came forward to preserve and conserve this unique mountain property with its maidenhair and its trilliums, its elfish orchids and forests of moss, its splendid trees, the sanctuary of warbler and thrush, wren, redbird and mocker. Money was needed\u2014and try to go to your banker and borrow money with a white-leaping brook as your security! But by the generosity of one of our honorary members, Mr. Clarence A. Lightner, of Detroit and Tryon, the money was advanced, a portion of it being promised as a gift, contingent upon the final payment, and there is every indication that the cause will be crowned with triumph. Pearson's Falls is now a wild-life preserve open to the\npage 10 pear010.jpg public, but remaining the property of the Garden Club of Tryon, so that those who visit the glen are the invited guests of the Club, and will, of course, so conduct themselves.\npage 11 pear011.jpg\nThe most casual of visitors to Pearson's Falls will not fail to carry away with him a recollection of enchanting wildflowers, unless perchance he goes in winter. Even then he will bear away a remembrance of the splendid hemlocks and massed, evergreen rhododendrons. But on the whole evergreens are few in the Glen. The flora there is an almost virgin example of the great deciduous forests of eastern North America\u2014that is, of trees that shed their leaves in autumn and perennial flowers and ferns that die down in winter, sending up fresh shoots in Spring from permanent underground parts such as roots, root-stocks or subterranean stems and bulbs. There are almost no annuals, very few evergreens, not many aquatic plants, absolutely no xerophytes of the type of cactus and sedum such as are to be found on dry, well-sunned mountain rocks hereabout.\nThe Northern visitor may see nothing very unusual in the type of vegetation to be found in the Glen, since much the same sort prevails in the North Atlantic states and in the Middle West. But the fact is that the deciduous climax forest, as ecologists term it, is really a fascinating minority in the earth's vegetable population. The tropics are almost uniformly evergreen, the subtropics chiefly so, the arctic regions and north-temperate zone the same. It is only in a few parts of the world, namely the eastern United States between the northern pine zone and the southern pine zone, and in parts of China, Japan, and Siberia, in Europe between the Scandinavian and Mediterranean evergreen zones and to a much slighter degree in the Southern Hemisphere, that dominantly deciduous\n12 pear012.jpg forests occur. Our own Western States are chiefly evergreen.\nIt is precisely in the natural areas of deciduous forest that men make the most serious inroads into wild life, the climate also suiting the European and yellow stocks best for intensive settlement, with the result that this beautiful type of vegetation, most appealing of all sorts to most of us, has now been driven to the wall on all the continents.\nTrees with broad, filmy leaves, airy in their bud in spring, cool and shady but admitting plenty of light in summer, glorious in autumn, naked in winter when the delicate tracery of their boughs and twigs is revealed, trees like the beech and maple and oak, the linden, hickory, walnut, and ash, are rich in their associations for us; their very names summon to the mind incidents of history, beloved paintings, personal and family recollections, traditions, legends, superstitions, articles of household furniture, old-fashioned medicines, dyes and tannins, and scenes from the cultural pattern of colonial and early republican life\u2014not to mention European associations of more ancient date.\nAt Pearson's Falls you will see all these trees, and other splendid forest-dwellers, the tulip-poplar, the dogwood, the redbud, the shadbush, persimmon, wild cherry, silver-bell trees, sourwood, black-gum, black locust, witch-hazel, sassafras, spice-bush, hazel, alder, grey birch, cherry birch and butternut, all of them famous trees of the Carolina mountains, many of them of the most ancient geological lineage, members of genera most of whose species have long since been swept from the earth by its changing climate; indeed, we would not even know of their existence but for fossil records, showing that they were once widespread over the globe.\n13 pear013.jpg\nToday the wild life preserve of Pearson's Falls is a little museum of these fascinating last survivors. In autumn the leaves still fade and fall on the steep floors of the Glen forest, as in ages past, adding each year a little to the rich mould and loam in which the lovely wild flowers, ferns, moss and fungi spring up. It is likely that the identical ancestors of these trees and humbler plants have grown here, undisturbed, enchanting, for at least a million years\u2014before the great glaciers gathered on the northern half of this continent and of Europe.\nUp to the present, at least, no weed (I use the word in the meaning of an invading plant of foreign origin like the European dandelion, the tropical Jimson weed, the Asiatic honeysuckle) has ever been found in the Glen itself, though there are a few in the little meadow at its mouth. But the conservative old plant society of the Glen is rigidly hostile to undesirable additions and migrations, and there will be none unless roads and beaten paths should unwisely be made, or unfortunate \"landscape effects\" be tried. Also there are no directly harmful plants, such a poison-ivy, except the little wood-nettle, which stings the hand with a rash for a few minutes. Poisonous plants do occur\u2014poisonous, that is, to eat, but it is imbecile to chew leaves or try mushrooms, roots and berries, without knowing what they are, and the \"blanket law\" of the owners of the Glen that no plants may be picked, no shrubs broken, will, if observed by the guests in the Glen, preserve them all from harm.\nIn Spring one frequently sees the morelle (Morchella esculenta), which looks rather like a small, cylindrical piece of bath sponge on a short stalk. This is perhaps the\n14 pear014.jpg tastiest of American mushrooms, also the gamiest, for where it grew one year it does not grow the next; one may hunt diligently and with watering mouth without finding it. And then, one day, right under your feet, its saucy little shape confronts you. I have found it in the Glen, but never while hunting for it, and only within a range of a few weeks in Spring.\nOn the other hand, it is only in autumn and early winter that I have seen the puff-balls in the Glen; they too are edible when tiny as buttons; when mature they are too tough, but it is fascinating then to give their fat little sacks a squeeze with the fingers and watch the discharge of dark spores from their mouths, like a puff of smoke from a gnomish crater. One may continue this operation till the game becomes wearisome and still the puff-ball will not have exhausted its store of spores. In early winter, certain kinds of puff-balls burst open into several equal segments which relax to the ground in an inky star-shaped mass, from which the last of the spores has discharged itself ; wherefore the plant is sometimes called earth-star, as its Latin name of Geaster indicates. The spores themselves, fine as powdered wood-ash, will, like seeds falling to earth, give rise another year to new plants. The spores of fungi and of ferns, indeed, are almost seeds; the chief difference is that they do not, as seeds do, contain an embryo or tiny plantling. This development was left to the seed plants to evolve.\nSimilar to the craters and spores of puff-balls are those of the stinkhorn fungi sometimes seen in the Glen, occasionally in Spring, most often in Autumn and early Winter. These shoot forth their spores from the tiny hole in the enlarged tip of the fungus; the rest of the fungus consists of a swollen or ball-like base, and a curious, ephe-\n15 pear015.jpg meral veil around the long, pallid column. With their strong odors and impudent shapes they are among the most gnome-like and fantastic of all our fungi, and they are poisoners, to boot.\nOn the boles of trees one often encounters the bracket fungi, many of them species of Polyporus, of which the upper sides are shelf-like, the lower honeycombed, where the spores are stored. Some of these are soft and break off easily in the hand, showing inside firm gleaming \"flesh.\" Others are very woody or rubbery and sometimes undoubtedly of great age. Colonies of algae, or lichens, and even of moss, come to dwell upon the old, indurated sorts just as though they were parts of a tree trunk. Under the bark they send in long hyphae or sucking strands which dissolve and digest and penetrate into the timber of senescent trees. In short, these are, strictly speaking, harmful fungi, but though they hasten the processes of decay, they do not completely cause them. The spores of the same fungi undoubtedly alight upon other trees in great numbers yearly without being able to obtain a toe-hold in the vigorous young ones. It is only when, by Nature's decree that nothing shall live forever, and a tree approaches its age of decay, that these bracket fungi are able to make headway.\nYes, the tree, however majestic, grows old at last, decays, falls, breathes forth its last green shoots and at length is nothing but \"punk wood,\" but the bracket fungi grow larger, swell monstrously, send forth thousands and thousands of spores upon the forest airs, and in this strangely altered form carry on life. Graphically they illustrate the biologic axiom that life changes but does not cease. And we see that the place of fungi in nature is but one cog in a great wheel, the cycle of the element of\n16 pear016.jpg nitrogen through living matter. Doubtless they aid, too, in the revolution of the phosphorus cycle, and in the oxygen and carbon cycles. While these, and still other, smaller wheels revolve, the hands still move upon the scarred old face of the clock called Life, wound up by Whom we do not know, nor when, nor for how long, nor why. But when the spring runs down, as it is certain it must, no earthly power of which we can conceive shall ever rewind it.\nSo numerous are the fungi in the Glen\u2014as many species, probably, as there are flowers\u2014that many families of them must be passed by cursorily, including the beautiful Tremulas, that look like bits of red seaweed or slices of currant jelly, lining old twigs for a fewr days of rainy Spring weather, vanishing swiftly, leaving only a memory of morning sunshine passing through their quivering, cool bodies in shafts of ruby light. Even the amateur's favorite, the family Agaricaceae, must be lightly passed over. The famous edible mushroom of commerce (Agaricus campestris) is not found in the Glen, as it is a pasture plant, most abundant where animals graze, but some other species of Agaricus are occasionally seen and may be edible. The Russulas, clumsy, unsymmetrical, handsomely tinted mushrooms, are common on the ground, but are not to be trusted. On dead twigs and stumps one sees frail, pale little Collybias, peculiarly charming and friendly little mushrooms, rather like so many minute marmosets on a branch. There are \"fairy rings\" in the Glen, expanding colonies of agaricaceous mushrooms whose centers die as their peripheries expand, producing the enchanting effect known to all wood-lovers. Swiftly they grow in the night; swiftly they pass away, vanishing with one hot, dry day; or, if you try to collect and keep\n17 pear017.jpg them, they turn to ink, leaving only, in elfish malice, a stain and a smell.\nThere is little space in which to mention the Glen algae, at least some of which are members of the genus Spirogyra, and hang, astonishingly, in long strands on the dripping caverns, almost as though they wrere aerial instead of aquatic plants. Most primitive of all plants, (unless bacteria are plants) the algae harbor in their slimy, emerald sargassos many tiny fresh-water animals, also most primitive in their kingdoms. Our Blue-Green Algae, in the Glen, are visible as mere slime, making it treacherous to walk on the wet rocks, glistening with them. The Green Algae are less lowly, more beautiful. But wherever one sees them, one may know that the water is not fit to drink. Under the microscope our Spirogyra leaps from a mere tangled mesh of scum into strands of exquisite beauty\u2014delicate twisted bands of green, winding between walls of palest amber or crystal, like the fanciful work of old-fashioned wine-glass stems.\nOf the Bryophytes of the Glen I can speak but briefly, having identified only a few of them; there was no evidence, so far as my studies carried me, that the mosses there were really exciting, but we must leave it to the moss enthusiasts, those rare but almost fanatic individuals, to find out for themselves. There are colonies of Polytrichum, a very dark green, rather stiff plant forming erect, tiny forests on rocks and some of the drier slopes\u2014 a moss of world-wide distribution, no less beautiful for being common, and rich in association with Old World literature. Its odor, mingled with that of ferns, lichens, the crushed-strawberry smell of red Trilliums, and of\n18 pear018.jpg loam and mushrooms, goes to make up the blended delicious aroma of the Glen.\nUpon the dripping rocks, in the cool, ferny grotto-like cavern, and close to the waterfall itself, grow other mosses; pale emerald thin shoots of Jungermannia, Conocephalum, Mnium, tiny colonies of Catharinca, very lovely with clear spring water seeping through them, and sunlight, already filtered through the forest leaves, passing again through the fine green blades. So dainty are the leaves of mosses that they are only a few cells thick; mosses have scarcely any true root system, stems devoid of woody tissue, primitive leaves, and a reproductive system curious rather than highly effective (you will notice, in season, the little capsules waving atop a moss colony). The mosses, of ancient lineage and amphibious habits, might be considered the Amphibians of the plant world\u2014 and, indeed, the chief amphibian of the Glen, the red salamander, loves to hide among them.\nBefore you turn away your attention, note, too, the strange liverworts\u2014also Bryophytes, though not strictly mosses, but members of the fascinating Marchantia group. They encrust wet rocks with their flat green bodies or thalluses. Some look like lizards, with warty gray green surfaces, others are dark green and translucent (members of the genus Dumortiera), and resemble sea-weeds of the tribe of Ulva or sea-lettuce. When in fruiting condition they reveal marvels of intricate beauty under the microscope. Largely aquatic are their lives, and they are evergreen. Even in winter, when the Glen is leafless and flow-erless, they still make beautiful the little grottoes and wet caverns. Seen through the icy crystals of a sunny December morning, they are amongst the most enchanting of created things.\nBut we must pass on to the Ferns, recalling that our modest little woodland species are to the great tree ferns that may have flourished here in ancient times, as lizards to dinosaurs. The tree Lycopods of the Carboniferous era, raining down their spores, were laying down in Pennsylvania, Alabama and Illinois, the vast coal resources of today. And in the times of the tree ferns the dinosaurs and pterodactyls were abroad in the land, reptilian kings of the earth, while we mammals were nothing but little rat-like creatures scuttering fearfully about. The ferns recall the reptiles and other lowly vertebrates, in being the first plants to have what might be termed the equivalent of an internal skeleton. All the ferns in the Glen, at least, have more or less woody tissue in them, enabling them to have relatively upright stems bearing a broad head of foliage. The leaves, too, are extended against the pull of gravity by means of a serviceable skeleton of fibres and veins, albeit so delicate a system that of all plants at Pearson's Falls the ferns give the greatest impression of grace and airiness.\nThere are at present but thirteen sorts of ferns known in the Glen and its immediate neighborhood, all but one being members of the common Polypody family. So far as I know, the Walking Fern is not found anywhere else in Polk County; indeed, it is generally a rare plant; John Burroughs lamented that it had walked away from the vicinity of \"Slabsides.\" But quaint though its habits are, it is not more beautiful than the Ebony Fern with its blackish-brown stalks, nor the Maidenhair, the most popular of all our ferns. The bracken is the largest fern and also the coarsest; the lady fern and wood fern and rattlesnake fern are also large, but dainty. The Christ-\n20 pear020.jpg mas fern, so called because it is so fresh and green looking at the holiday season, has that perfect combination of strength and grace that we admire in a beech tree or a Greek temple. The \"sensitive\" fern is not sensitive, but it is very lovely with its large, simple, pale green leaflets; the \"brittle\" fern is only a trifle brittle. It is a good chooser of charming spots in which to grow, and may be found behind one of the smaller cascades, under a shelf of overhanging rock green with liverworts, and seen through the shining water it is incredibly lovely.\nThere is space only to mention the one conifer of the Glen, the Hemlock, famed tannin, timber and medicinal tree, with its sombre yet airy sprays of foliage, before turning to the true Flowering Plants, the high peak of plant evolution, the dominant masters of terra firma in this age. As there are rather more than two hundred of the flowering plants in the Glen or very near it, obviously only a few can be mentioned, and one must refer to the catalogue at the end of this book in order to find them all with their common and scientific names, each enrolled under the banner of its family. Nature lovers will recognize for themselves such familiar little beauties as trout lily, Solomon's seal (true and false), the common windflower and rue anemone, Dutchman's breeches, blood-root, wild strawberry, many species of violet, in particular the lovely Viola canadensis, redbud tree, dogwood, the common and sweet azalea, hepatica, mountain-laurel (which is no laurel, of course, but a member of the rhododendron family, and many-fold more beautiful than the true laurel of Europe), pretty robin's plantain, the first member of the Daisy family to show its bright eye in Spring, and Asters and goldenrod in Autumn.\n21 pear021.jpg Before I tell of any flowering plants in more detail, it is worth while to note that the flora of the Glen, as regards the flowers at least, is chiefly Northern. The visitor from central New York State, for instance, will see many more familiar flower faces lifted to him than one coming from lower South Carolina, for most of the plants are members only of the Alleghenian zone. Somewhat less numerous are the species common throughout the eastern half of the United States\u2014species no more Northern than Southern. A small group is made up of plants found only in the Carolina Blue Ridge\u2014endemics, as they are called, and most of them are probably offshoots of the Northern species growing beside them. Last of all, we may mention a few plants of the Southern lowlands which find their way into this zone.\nMany of the plants of the Glen are useful. Tannin is yielded by the hemlock, oak, walnut, sumac, and persimmon, and dyes by the walnut, butternut, yellowroot, sumac, red-root and touch-me-not. Medicinal properties listed by the American pharmacopoeia are derived from the ebony fern, rattlesnake fern, hemlock, Virginia snake-root, wild ginger, Trillium, yellow-root, black snakeroot, sassafras, spice bush, bloodroot, foam flower, witch-hazel, Indian physic, black cherry, wild-geranium, touch-me-not, may-apple, yam-root, moonseed, wild hydrangea and papoose-root.\nAmong the edible plants are the walnut, butternut, hickorynut, hazelnut, beechnut, pepper-root or toothwort, wild-strawberry, service-berry or shadberry (which the mountaineers called \"Sarviss Tree\"), wild-plum, chick-asaw plum, blackberry, wild-grape, sumac berries, of which a refreshing drink may be made, the pawpaw and persimmon popularly believed to ripen only after frost,\nHUGER'S RED TRILLIUM\n(Trillium Hugeri), with its large leaves mottled in three shades of green and its maroon petals often five inches long, is the giant of trilliums and is deliciously fragrant.\nPhotographed by Dr. Edgar T. Wherry.\n23 pear023.jpg and the partridge-berry, which looks very jolly on the ground, scarlet amidst its dark green leaves, but you may find it more insipid than do the birds that eagerly devour it. The sugar maple is seen in the mountains just above the Glen, and I must not forget the red-root or New Jersey tea, out of the leaves of which tea was made during the Revolutionary War. And while one is speaking of substitutes, the bark of the beautiful dogwood tree must not be forgotten, for during the rigors of the blockade in the Civil War it was used to replace quinine, sorely needed for troops fighting in the malarial lowlands. It could be so used again, if ever the present-day monopoly of the Dutch on quinine should result in a quinine-famine.\nA few of the plants in the Glen are new, or almost new to science. It was probably here or very close to Pearson's Falls that the splendid big red Trillium Hugeri, with its rhombic leaves mottled in three shades of green, its long maroon petals breathing the delicious crushed-strawberry odor, was first found by the late Arthur Middleton Huger, of Charleston. Melrose is also one of the original stations for Gleason's White Trillium, with its great rhombic, cream-colored petals and beautiful dark purple ovary, that is the rarest and certainly the most striking member of this fascinating genus. Collectors for the Arnold Arboretum and for the Forest Service at Washington have discovered rare new lindens in the region (country people call them basswood), and at least one variety of rhododendron was first taken in this neighborhood. At the very far side of the waterfall itself I had the good fortune to discover a new species of wild ginger or Asarum, and on wet rocks of the stream a new variety of crowfoot, while one of the type stations for a new color form of Phlox is also Melrose and its vicinity.\nGLEASON'S WHITE TRILLIUM\n(Trillium simile), rarest of all trilliums. The leaves are often 2>2 inches across, the petals cream-colored. Photographed by Dr. Edgar T. Wherry.\n25 pear025.jpg This little study of the wildlife of one mountain glen is drawing to a close, and still its author has told nothing of the real beauty of the flowers! He could do this no more than he could write adequately of the bird life. One lovely name after another comes to his mind, bringing with it stories that could be told of some bits of lore, of history or of the romantic, wandering lives of the early American naturalists who first discovered our mountain wildflowers, such as Alexander Garden of Charleston, John Bartram (\"Botanist extraordinary to the king\") of Philadelphia, ploughman, Quaker, naturalist without benefit of Latin; John Clayton of Tidewater Virginia, correspondent of Linnaeus, for whom is named our dainty little Spring beauty (Claytonia virginica) that was, by some odd chance, the first flower that Asa Gray, father of American botany, ever identified when, a boy, he hastened out into the fields of Spring with Dr. Torrey's quaint old \"Botany.\" How say nothing of John Lyon, lonely Englishman for whom the beautiful purple turtle-head (Chelone Lyoni) was named, and who died more than a century ago at Black Mountain, N. C., his failing sight fixed on the dark, balsam-clad Mt. Mitchell range? You will find the glorious flower that bears his name, in Autumn, at Pearson's Falls, where it grows as vigorously as on Mt. Mitchell. But of his precious herbarium collection believed to be knocking about still somewhere in an Asheville attic, nothing is known.\nI pass over the scores and scores of beloved plants that clamor to have their whole history told, their frailest beauties praised\u2014like Enchanter's Nightshade, Sweet Cicely, Blue Milkweed, the blue-eyed wild Comfrey, the ghostly beech-drops, withered for their sins of parasitism to mere yellow skeletons of themselves, enchanting,\nCourtesy of the Wild Flower Preservation Society.\n27 pear027.jpg brown-eyed, white-lashed Aster divaricatus nodding from the crevices, the plant that country folk call \"Farewell Summer\"; wild hydrangeas, wild syringas, fragile, snowy-white meadow-rues trembling in the spray of the waterfall, pale touch-me-nots, St. John's-wort, showy orchis, starry chickweed, fire pink, bergamot and basil and odorous bee-balm, and the dittany, out of whose stems in wintry weather shoot curling crystals of frost thin as paper, Jack-in-the-pulpits, some enormous, some small as your thumb, some purple and chocolate-striped, some of a pale, elfish green. No, they are too many for me, and no words that I could use would be worth so much as would an hour's visit among them. The wild-flowers, it seems to me, are at their best in April, May and June\u2014 the blooming periods of the rhododendrons, in fact, when the early white kind, the later pink, and the very late great white species, shower their blossoms on the pool. This is, too, as Solomon sang, the time of the singing of birds.\nTHE STORY OF SHORTIA\nIt is left to me only space enough to tell, in brief, the story of Shortia, which I transplanted to the Glen in 1919 in an endeavor to naturalize it. Though I placed it as inaccessibly as possible, many people, I fear, have scaled the rocks to wrest it from its place; many plants of the precious little store were borne away by citizens of Try on. It is my hope that these words may induce some of them to bring back the plants they took; all visitors to the Glen, and the author of these words, will thank them if they will restore the \"flower lost for a century.\"\nOr more precisely, its eclipse lasted ninety-eight years, for it was discovered by Andr\u00e9 Michaux in December, 1788. And what is Shortia, you ask, and who was\n28 pear028.jpg Michaux? Alas, there is no common name for the plant botanically known as Shortia galaci- folia. We have lost the Indian's name for it and the mountaineers have not, so far as I know, bestowed a name upon it. A high official in the Department of Agriculture has decreed that it shall be called \"Oconee-Bells.\" If you like this name, by all means use it, but it is a book name, not a popular name. In Japan, where two other species of Shortia are found, it is called Iwauchuwa (ee-wah-yuh-chew-ah), but Shortia is its name among nurserymen and botanists, and I find that even the mountaineers up around Toxaway and Highlands call it that, knowing its romantic history very well. And it is not badly captioned, since it does honor to the memory of Dr. C. W. Short, one of the earliest botanists of the Kentucky mountains.\nBut what does it look like, this Shortia? That is part of the mystery of the story, and you must be content to hear the tale out.\nIt begins with Andr\u00e9 Michaux, explorer and botanist to his majesty Louis XVI and educated at Montpellier, where all the great French botanists from Lamarck to the De Candolles have studied. When he came to America in 1785, he was already renowned, having traveled around the Caspian Sea and through Persia in search of strange plants; in his Persian years he had not only mastered the language and eluded Kurdish brigands, but even cured the Shah of a wasting malady.\nIt was unwillingly that he came to America, in those early days of our republic, but before long he was an ardent lover of its forests and savannahs, a penetrating critic of the cocky backwoodsman, and a friend of George Washington. In an age when the Blue Ridge was ultima thulc for men of the Tidewater, who considered them-\n29 pear029.jpg selves brave, he traversed the glades of Florida, the prairies of Illinois, and penetrated even to I,ake Mistassinni, in Canada, to this day considered one of the most inaccessible spot* in North America.\nBut his first love was the Blue Ridge of North Carolina, lo which he made repeated trips, bringing hack from the mountains rare shrubs\u2014our azaleas, rhododendrons, hydrangeas, mock-orange or syringas, and mountain-laurel\u2014to he grown in his garden at Ten Mile Station, near Charleston. Here, too, he grew foreign trees which he was the first to give to our southern gardens, the chinaberry, the crepe myrtle, the tallow-tree, and the camellia. Some bushes of the last, planted by him, still bloom in his garden. He was the first man to grow the tea plant in South Carolina, and taught the mountaineers to gather ginseng and how to prepare it for sale in China, where it was in enormous demand.\nHis favorite route was to proceed up the Savannah River to its headwaters ; he was accustomed to take the eastern branch, which is the Keowee River and, crossing out of white men's land, enter the Nation of the Cher-okees. Here he would ascend Mt. Mitchell, Grandfather Mountain, and Roan Mountain, or turning west explore the Great Smokies, descending by the Tugaloo, which is the great west branch of the Savannah.\nOne winter dusk in 1788, Michaux was hastening back to his camp on the Keowee, when he encountered a little plant with scalloped leaves, which he had found nowhere else. It was out of flower. The Indian guides told him that the leaves had a nice taste if chewed and gave forth a pleasant odor when pinched. This he demonstrated for himself. In his diary for that day Michaux tells under the neat heading, \"Directions for finding this Shrub,\" ex-\npear 30 pear030.jpg actly how to find his plant, of which he bore away only a single specimen, a root, leaf, and fruit capsule. It would hardly seem, however, that the great pioneer botanist was justified in calling it a shrub. Asa Gray spoke of it as an herb \"with the leaf of galax and the habit of Pyrola,\" and this is still the best description of it; one might almost add\u2014and the flower of a Primula.\nMichaux was to die far from his beloved Blue Ridge, and from his son Francois, also a botanist,\u2014in Madagascar, that graveyard of so many great Frenchmen. His unnamed specimen lay dusty in a Paris museum. Bartram and Frazer and Lyon crossed and re-crossed the Keowee without seeing anything of the little plant.\nIn 1839 Asa Gray was in Paris studying Michaux's collection. The plant from the Keowee was labeled nothing except \"Les hautes montagnes de Carolinie.\" Something about the very dry and dead little plant from Carolina piqued Gray's curiosity. He studied that one fruiting capsule with his lens and all his care, and from it was able to guess its family\u2014the rare little Diapensia family, confined to a few species of which the pyxie moss of New Jersey, our common Carolina Galax, and Diapensia on the summits of the White Mountains are examples. More than that, Gray was even able to reconstruct the flower he had never seen, to predict what it would look like when it was found.\nSeveral years later, thumbing a book of Japanese flower paintings, he came on a picture of the plant he had name Shortia. Not the same species, of course, but he was able from this old Oriental work to describe a little more accurately the broad outlines of Michaux's flower.\nIn 1877, after Gray had twice combed the Blue Ridge for Shortia (Michaux's diary, with its directions detailed\npear 31 pear031.jpg to the number of paces from a certain path, must have been unknown to him), a small boy, the son of Dr. Hyams of Marion, N. C. (a well-known herb doctor of his day), discovered a bank covered with Shortia near his home. The father hastened down to the rolling Catawba, dug up all the plants, sold them to museums, and Shortia was lost again.\nIt was in 1886 that Professor Charles S. Sargent, of the Arnold Arboretum, in company with several assistants, picked on the banks of Bear Camp Creek, near Highlands, a curious leaf which he bore back at nightfall to his camp. Drawing it from his vasculum, he turned to Mr. Boynton, of Highlands, and asked him what it was. Boynton denied any knowledge. Stiles said in a joking way, \"That's Shortia, of course.\" And that is just what it was,\u2014Michaux's long-lost station had been rediscovered.\nIn the last years of Asa Gray's life he was presented on one of his birthdays with living Shortia in flower. So ended the search for this little sylvan sprite, whose range is but a few square miles of the earth's surface, whose history must be ancient since its nearest relatives grow near Fujiyama's snows, whose name will be forever romantically linked with those of Short, the kindly doctor ; Michaux, the adventurous Frenchman ; Gray, the grave student ; and Sargent, the woodsman.\npear 32 pear032.jpg\nSLIME-MOULDS\nBefore taking up the fauna of the Glen it will be worth while to mention two groups of organisms that are neither clearly plants nor animals. Bacteria are present, undoubtedly, in great quantities at Pearson's Falls, though doubtless they are harmless sorts. Few visitors come to the Glen when it is dark, but those of us who have done so have noticed the phosphorescence of many logs and bits of decaying matter. The phosphorescence is given off by bacteria. The characteristic and pleasant odor of the loam is also due to soil bacteria, just as the odor of milk and cheese is bacterial in nature. Soil bacteria are usually very large (for bacteria) and are of the utmost service to the natural economy of the Glen, as it is their scavenging business to attack and digest dead leaves and other plant debris, and release to the soil the precious fertilizing element of nitrogen. So in the great cycle of growth and decay that we call life, bacteria are among the house-wrecking organisms which make the construction material of outworn life available for use again. The more bacteria the soil contains, the richer will be its flora.\nSlime-moulds are occasionally seen in the Glen; they often look like granulated egg-yolk, the grains connected by cobwebby fibers. Despite their name, they are often pretty and bright-colored, a little like dyed lace. Though they would seem at first sight to be plants of a low fungoid nature, yet there are many animal-like qualities in these curious colonies that delight to inhabit old logs. Not the least of the animal characteristics of the slime-moulds\npear 33 pear033.jpg is their motility. They move slowly along together, even against gravity, over the soil and across decaying logs, though for some mysterious reason the slow processional is usually made at night. Their very place in nature is a mystery; botanists and zoologists both claim them, and yet others would classify them apart from either the plant or the animal kingdom.\nThe present writer does not pretend to be a trained zoologist, and his observations on the fauna of Pearson's Falls are those of the delighted observer and random collector.\nThe animals of Pearson's Falls are mostly members of the Transition or Alleghenian faunal zone. A few are perhaps more characteristic of the Upper Austral or Carolinian zone which predominates, for instance, at the level of Tryon, while many species are common to both.\nBrief mention will first be made of some of the animals belonging to orders related to insects, and often popularly called insects, though in reality they are not, being merely members of that gigantic sub-kingdom the arthropods, which may be loosely defined as invertebrate animals with the skeleton external, the body being articulated and the limbs jointed. This even includes the crustaceans or lobsters and crawfish. I have never seen any crawfish in the brook in the Glen, though they occur in the Pacolet at lower altitudes. The water probably is too clear and too precipitous, and they no doubt prefer a muddy rather than a sandy substratum. But a minute crustacean does occur in the Glen, and is exceptional in not being aquatic. If you turn over a big stone, you will almost certainly see a soft-bodied, grayish-pink, small, roundish creature which looks like a minute armadillo. This is the slater or pill-bug, also called sow-bug and wood-louse, though it is neither a bug nor a louse. This is our most prim-\npear 35 pear035.jpg itive arthropod; perfectly harmless, not at all ornamental, and fleeing the light.\nScarcely higher in the scale of evolution are the millipedes which are sometimes found curled up inside mushroom stems. They may be mistaken for centipedes and are often classed with them under a super-group, Myria-poda, though this is thought by some an artificial grouping, as the two branches are little kin to each other. Our millipedes serve no better purpose, from the point of view of humans, than to furnish food to many of the finest song birds of the Glen, who snap them up eagerly and hastily convert them into music. The millipedes in the Glen are probably a species of I ulus ; they are roundish in cross-section, dark-colored and rather hard-shelled, with two pairs of legs to each joint of the body. They move slowly, betraying complete stupidity, and are perfectly harmless. They emerge from the ground and other hiding places chiefly at night and after wet days.\nThe little wood centipede (a member of the family Glomeridae), on the other hand, is a frail, almost a beautiful creature, who lives under bark and stones and does most of his hunting at night, but is often seen by day sunning himself or sleeping on warm rocks. His body is flattened; he has one pair of very fine long legs to each segment, and in contrast with the heavy millipedes he weighs less than a cigar ash, or seems to, and moves with airy speed and great cunning in his hunting. He is preceded by sensitive feelers, and protected in the rear by legs modified into poison stings, but our species is not in the least dangerous, and I never saw one that did not flee man as soon as even a slight motion is made. They do not appear before the hot months.\nSpiders are common in the Glen, but such modest little species are they that the casual visitor will hardly notice them; the daddy-long-legs are relatives of the spiders, however, and they roam swiftly about with an air of great importance and ridiculousness on their stilted legs, over leaf and ground; they are entirely harmless, for all that they look like minutiae of our nightmares. The woodtick, a characteristic woodland species, also of the class of arachnids, occasionally enters the human scalp, whence it must be \"unscrewed.\" To avoid them it is best to refrain from lying with one's head upon the ground. Chiggers are mites related to ticks, and their invisible larvae inhabit foliage and logs. They penetrate the skin, even through clothing, and cause irritation. Fortunately, the Glen is much less infested with them than the sunny woods, and they are seldom encountered before June.\nWe come now to the true insects. There are more kinds of insects than all other animals put together, with the plants thrown in. Even in such a little area as that of Pearson's Falls, only a few of the insects can be mentioned, lest they seem swarming into this book to fill up its pages. One does not, of course, see any of the familiar insects of open ground and sunny meadows, farms and orchards, and very few aquatic species, as the cold, rushing brook is hostile to most of those. But even reducing our scrutiny to a few of the commonest species of deep woodlands in the Transition zone, the most insufficient notice will have to be given to these fascinating organisms.\nWhen one ruffles old leaf-mold for beetles, one often catches a glimpse of a tiny, flat, silvery insect flowing\npear 37 pear037.jpg smoothly to a fresh hiding place. This is a Campodea, sometimes called bristle-tail or woodland silver-fish, though the feathery tails are really feelers. Campodea is one of the thysanurid insects, a creature of untold antiquity, whose present-day relatives are mostly tropical and represent a fragment of the once large super-order, the Apterygota, or wingless insects which are the humble starting point of the insect clan. The silver-fish is a very characteristic animal of the Glen, though so tiny it does not look strong enough or clever enough to harm anything, or even to know very well where it is going. From these weak, minute, stupid creatures to the social ants, the \"mankind of insects,\" the story of insect evolution has unrolled through the ages, and fragments of that history are visible even in the restricted fauna of Pearson's Falls.\nMost primitive of the winged insects are the class Orthoptera, typified by grasshoppers, but much lowlier than grasshoppers are the wood-roaches which dwell under stones and bark and have none of the air of evil dirtiness associated with house-roaches nor the bad odor of Blatta orientalis, the famous Old World species. Our little out-of-doors nocturnal hunter, on the contrary, is quite neat of appearance, is quick and innocuous, and it is strangely moving to think that his ancestors go back by fossil record to the time of the formation of coal, when ferns were trees and flowers had never been seen.\nIn the meadow at the mouth of the Glen one sometimes encounters the grasshopper and the cricket, familiar and friendly-seeming insects whose forms and habits we all know, but they are not typical of the forest itself. Rather, one sees there the cricket's arch-enemy, the mantis. Among the tropical, predaceous Mantidae, mimicry\npear 38 pear038.jpg enables some species to deceive their prey by holding their claws in such a manner that their victims mistake them for flowers. People who are perhaps disillusioned in regard to their own species are amused to think that the upraised forelimbs of the wicked mantis are hypocritical, prayerful hands, but this is a human misreading; our little wood-mantis advances on his prey with great frankness, lifting his snatching appendages with as much openness of intent as a Crusader raising his two-handed sword to attack his paynim enemy. His victims certainly make no mistake about the mantis's intentions, and if they remain rooted to the spot it is not because they are deceived but because they are paralyzed with terror.\nInsects appear to faint with fright rather easily, as indeed do spiders when, as we say, they \"play dead.\" They are highly emotional creatures; it is easy to observe crowd-panic among ants, and mob anger also; and the sexual instinct, as Fabre has said, develops amongst insects at times into a sort of frenzy of feeling. I think it was Roosevelt, in his natural history writings, who said that only in nightmares do we experience the fears that are the daily portion of the hunted.\nOne of the hunted orthopterans is the walking-stick insect (Diapheromera femoral a), which resembles a little twig in shape and color, even to the nodes or joints. When at rest\u2014and he comes to rest at a footfall or the passing of a shadow\u2014he probably escapes observation nineteen times out of twenty. But if you touch him he walks (he is wingless in the usual state) with a sort of outraged, shamed confusion, rather like that of a plain-clothes detective whose false whiskers have fallen off. One cannot help wondering whether the walking-sticks merely had luck in being born in the resemblance to a\npear 39 pear039.jpg twig, or whether a Divine Plan is at work in the universe, ordering all things with inevitable wisdom. Neither concept will satisfy the inquiring scientific mind, nor yet the notion that by trying to look like a twig some other insects . turned into a clever new species. Before you announce your own theory, it might be well to have a look at Lamarck's work, or Darwin's, or de Vries's, and learn from their mistakes !\nThe most astonishing example of mimicry among the orthopterans of the Glen, however, is the leaf-insect (Phyllium siccifolium) , who, when he alights upon a leaf, is identical with his substratum in a way to arouse the admiration of the least observant. His translucent green wing has, apparently, the midrib of a leaf, and all its secondary venation down to the finest criss-crossing veinlets, even the margin and general outline perfectly simulate a leaf of the simple, deciduous, ovate order.\nKatydids also occur in the Glen, but are only heard on summer nights, so that most visitors do not notice them ; nevertheless they are important orthopteran citizens of our little green realm.\nOne is obliged to pass over a great many orders and families of insects whose local members are not characteristic of the Glen fauna though they may pass through it, like the dragonflies, and even most of the Hemiptera, though they include many inconspicuous little insects of the forest. Among them are the quaint Brownie-Bugs or leaf-hoppers, those jolly, goblin-faced triangular brown bugs, as well as the common summer cicadas and the periodical cicada or seventeen-year \"locust,\" one of the marvels of the American fauna, which breeds in this forest but of course is seldom seen.\nThe order Coleoptera or beetles is so numerous that one can do little more than mention leading families, but in general beetles are known by their hard wing-covers which the insect must lift before the membranous true wings beneath can be set in motion for the usually rather clumsy flight. It is the wing covers which give beetles, when seen from above, their trim, quaint appearance, like a back view of Mr. Pickwick. Beautiful colors are often noted on these wing-covers, sometimes of a smooth, lacquered, and maculated appearance as in the lady-bug family, sometimes due apparently to the prismatic refraction of light in the fine striations, giving marvelous blues and greens, rubies, or even bright gold. The scarab beetles are often very handsome; most of the bark beetles are less brilliant, but are neat and dark and alert and inclined to be pugnacious. Most amusing are the click-beetles (family\nElateridae), who, by means of muscular projections rather like automobile jacks in function, can, when you turn them on their backs, leap out of this position, which ordinarily renders a beetle absolutely helpless, with a snapping motion.\nRelated to them are the fireflies that few visitors observe because the pale green tail-lights of the winged males are seen only for a few weeks, at dusk, and again near dawn, in late spring and early summer, but one who has observed these little linkmen in the emerald dusks of the Glen can never forget them. The females are humble glow-worms that are seen around the springs and in damp spots, and shine so brightly that they are sometimes visible even in daylight, and at night appear like bits of phosphorescent wood.\nThe class of the flies (Diptera) must be passed over\npear 41 pear041.jpg for lack of space and detailed information. They are not particularly abundant in the Glen; and mosquitoes are almost wholly absent.\nThe butterfly fauna of Polk County is one of the richest in the State, but the rare species recorded seem to belong to the Carolinian zone. The Glen is a bit sunless for most of the butterflies, but moths, which are chiefly nocturnal, are more abundant. Their long, curled-up tongues shoot out and down into tubular flowers to find the nectar, for many of the class Lepidoptera touch nothing but this ambrosial food in their adult state, though in the form of caterpillars they are voracious eaters. Many flowers exhale perfume only at night, apparently to attract moths. By day, most moths fly to the tops of the trees where they hang from the undersides of the leaves. An exception is the hummingbird-sphinx-moth, which hovers over tubular flowers in bright sunlight, the blur of his tiny wings and his long mouthparts like a bill, remarkably resembling the hummingbird. The luna moth (Actias luna), often considered the most beautiful North American species, of an unearthly green, is sometimes found in the Glen. The royal walnut moth is another characteristic species which sometimes visits the Glen; its larvae feed on the leaves of our typical deciduous trees, such as hickory, walnut, and ash.\nOne of the commonest sights is the swarming of the Lepidoptera. Much ado about nothing appears to be going on, where an excited cluster of butterflies or moths flutters round and round what would seem to be a perfectly imaginary object of interest\u2014often nothing more than a sunny bit of rock beside the brook. It is an enchanting sight, but seems rather inane in purpose until\npear 42 pear042.jpg we realize that it means that a female has rested there, and though she has gone away, some mysterious clue of her passage has drawn scores of eager males to the spot. How do they know that a female has alighted there, and why, not finding her, do her swains still beat about where she is not, instead of setting out to look for her, as a mammal in rut will track his mate? It is customary to say that a powerful smell is left where the female has passed. But Fabre burned sulphur in a room where a female moth had alighted and put other strong repellant odors near the spot, and still the males came. The sense of sight was not involved, nor the sense of hearing, since the female was otherwheres. Fabre concluded that a sixth sense was possessed by insects. Before accepting this theory, it is necessary to ask yourselves if it is certain that Fabre's moths could smell the odors with which he sought to efface a possible odor left by the female, or whether, from a moth's point of view, they were insignificant beside the exciting oestrual odor. We do not ourselves perceive our own odor, which is apparent and often offensive to other species of animals. An aversion exists also between the different races of men. The Asiatics do not like the odor of the Occidental, and so on. And the attractions are as mysterious as the aversions. The male moth is able to forego the winged lady if only he may remain enthralled by the aroma of her passing.\nWe reach now the Hymenoptera, which includes the ichneumon and saw flies, the hornets and bees and fly-like bees and the ants. Unfortunately, few species from the Glen have been identified. One of these is Vespa maculata, the white-faced wasp or yellow jacket. Wasps, it may be said, are carnivorous and bees nectivorous, and\npear 43 pear043.jpg wasp stings in general are worse and more often inflicted without provocation than bee stings. Wasp nests, looking like a huge wad of newspaper reduced to ash, are sometimes seen near the Glen and probably at times within it. There is no animal on earth so bold as intentionally to stir up a wasp nest, but the fearless wasps at times become so troublesome to farmers and their animals that the men go out at night, when the wasps are quiescent, pour kerosene over the nest, and then set it alight. It is a cruel sport and a weird sight, with just the required thrill of danger.\nOne often sees our Vespa wasp stinging a caterpillar; the caterpillar does not die, but is merely stung into paralysis, and is borne off to the wasp nest, where he is fed to wasp larvae, sections of live caterpillar being cut off and distributed in the nursery.\nThe wild bees of the Glen have not been identified. Volumes might be written of bees and their social life, and some have been. I choose to mention here only their relation to the fertilization of flowers. Some flowers are pollinated by wind, some by water, by themselves, by birds, by snails, but chiefly by insects, including moths, butterflies, beetles, flies, mosquitoes, ants, and many more. In the Glen, I believe, bees do nine-tenths of the pollinating. Most of our flowers are adapted more or less to pollination by bees; or perhaps it is just as reasonable to say that bees are in a general way splendidly adapted to the pollination of most flowers. So neat is the adjustment between the shapes and habits of bees, and the shapes and needs of flowers, that in the case of some orchids only one species of bee can fit into a certain species of flower, like the adjustment of a Yale key to its particular lock. This symbiosis or intimate and interdependent relation-\npear 44 pear044.jpg ship between the life history and functions of two species is one of the most striking examples of sympathetic evolution in all of Nature. The mind declines the notion that mere chance has brought flower form and bee form into happy coincidence, as it is surely not mere chance that one's feet are mates. On the other hand, if one begins to look for ''purpose\" and cosmic plan or intelligence on the part of plants and gratitude on the part of bees, as the medieval professors and theologians would have had one do, one is swiftly led into the cardinal heresy of teleology\u2014a trap so wide and attractive that almost everyone who first begins to reason about natural phenomena falls into it.\nTeleology is that line of thought which presupposes that a simple cause or causes may be ultimately found to explain any phenomenon such as the mutual adaptations of bee and flower, and inversely that everything serves a useful purpose in a design which it is the business of science to uncover and laud, any evidence to the contrary being tabled as pieces of the puzzle not yet fitted in. The trouble with teleology is not that it is anathema to certain humorless professorial gentlemen, but that it has a paralyzing effect upon research and atrophies that precious skepticism of the man-from-Missouri.\nThere remain the ants to be noted in the insect phylum. None of the ants in the Glen seem to represent rare species, but rarity is esteemed only by those with the collecting mania, which is not allied to the scientific frame of mind. Common species of ants were not too poor for the essays of Fabre, that incomparable observer, as Darwin called him.\nAny of us can become observers of ants, and it often happens that an amateur, with fresh sight, discovers\npear 45 pear045.jpg something that veterans have missed. Most fascinating of common ant activities is the formation of a train of porters. These defiles, often seen in the Glen, appear at first glance to be migratory, but usually turn out to be a two-directional traffic, as on a city street. The ants do not seem, however, to keep to the regulation left or right, but braid the two streams together, since constant meetings with individuals going in the opposite way seem to be essential to keep the sense of direction. The ants proceeding toward the nest are usually those burdened with morsels of dissected food, while those going out into the field proceed empty-handed (for the fore limbs function like hands). Trace the length of the chain, and you will be astonished at its extent and the number of ants necessary to make such a safari. They seem to travel very little by the sense of sight, and if you break up the chain the ants have difficulty in re-establishing the line, since the sense of touch would seem to be primarily important.\nIt is impossible to look at the society, politics, and industry of ants without making human comparisons; there is nothing improper in such comparisons, providing one remembers that among ants instinct is ninety-nine points and intelligence one point, while among humans intelligence has largely displaced instinct. Mystics and poet-entomologists hasten to assure us that we do ants wrong in this assertion, and they give many examples of ant intelligence, but the examples are open to question, and, anyway, it is no disgrace to an ant to be instinctive and not much of a compliment to say that it is intelligent. The word instinct cries for definition and yet can never be defined. This much can be said of instinct, though, that among other things it is an impulse to a patterned behavior with which the organism, be he ant, bird, or\npear 46 pear046.jpg human, is born. He does not and cannot acquire it by experience, experience merely making perfect his technique of it. The benign tyranny of instinct among ants will sufficiently explain the rigidity of ant society.\nLOWER VERTEBRATES\nWe come now to vertebrates, lowest of which are the fishes. \"Are there many fish in this stream?\" asked the Northern visitor of a native angler walking away from one of our mountain brooks. \"There ought to be,\" replied the rustic sage, \"I hain't never seen none taken out.\" So I may say that there ought to be rainbow trout (Salmo irideus) in the brook, and the pool at the foot of the falls is an ideal trout pool. The brook was certainly inhabited by this beautiful little trout once on a time, but long ago the stream was fished-out, as the Waltonians say. The stream should be re-stocked, now that the Glen has become a wild life preserve.\nOf amphibians there are more. Frogs are sometimes seen in the Glen, especially the true frogs of the family Ranidae, but only toads are common. The Glen toads are largely nocturnal, and play a valuable role in eating quantities of slugs and insects which they catch by the lightning-quick darts of their long, sticky tongues. It is odd to think that our gentle Bufo arouses any horror in humans; toads can do little harm; their only protective device is their so-called venom (a secretion from the skin), much sought by witches and poisoners of old, which they emit when they are in great pain, as when in the jaws of a dog. This probably could not do one any harm unless it came in contact with the eyes or mouth. Toads may be gently picked up without any retaliation on their part, and they do not give one warts, Tom Sawyer to the contrary. Their enemies are snakes, owls, hawks,\npear 47 pear047.jpg and perhaps some mammals, and they must be easily caught in spite of their nocturnal habits, since one can readily locate them even on a very dark night by the clumsy, noisy, rustling progress they make over the forest floor with all its telltale leaves and twigs. Toads do not drink ; they absorb water through the skin from the damp earth, which is doubtless why they love the Glen. In spring one sees them even in daylight, in couples, and a toad in love is an attentive swain indeed.\nEqually odd is the courtship of another amphibian that is common in the Glen, the red salamander, who looks like a lizard, yet is not scaly, but smooth and pink. He inhabits the cold springs, the wet moss and liverworts, where he hides in the day, being nocturnal. It is most comical to see two of these animals confronting each other, square-footedly, and with, it would seem, a suppressed grin, like two children in the game of \"No more talking, no more laughing.'' The small emitted spermat-aphoric cone which automatically affixes itself to the rock or earth substratum is swept up by the female in the cloacal lips, again recalling fertilization among fishes from which amphibians sprang, and reaffirming a biologic law that higher life forms repeat in vestigial structures and habits the history of their ascent.\nThe red salamander of the Glen is an agile, trim, and pretty little creature who is easily caught by a swift motion of the hand, but as easily escapes by a few desperate squirms of his slippery, dainty little body. Of all his accomplishments, the most remarkable is his ability to replace a lost limb (and a leg-of-newt is doubtless fine fare to reptiles and birds of prey) by a new one.\nLizards are also noted for their power to renew segments of their tails when broken; it is obvious that their\npear 48 pear048.jpg long dragging tails are a weak point with lizards. But they have the luck to possess tails which snap off where seized, probably with little or no pain.\nIt is no longer genteel, even for a Southern lady, to swoon with fear at the sight of a lizard, as did the wife of Robert Carter in Fithian's famous diary. Lizards are harmless, even beneficial, since they eat insect pests, and their jolly appearance ought to win them an affection they seldom receive. They are, it is true, related to the once dreadful dinosaurs that roamed the world, but they are to them as kittens to tigers.\nMost famous of our lizards is the chameleon (Anolis carolinensis) which, as all the world knows, changes color protectively to match the field on which it finds itself. This particular Chameleon has, however, but a brief range of color running from green to a brownish hue.\nOf snakes I cannot speak much, since I have rarely seen one in the Glen in all my visits. It is reassuring to know that it is not the habitat of the rattler, the moccasin, or the copperhead, and there are no other poisonous snakes in this part of the world. I have only seen the common blacksnake (Coluber constrictor), which is very large and looks alarming, but is not poisonous and will not strike unless tormented. The cliff species has the appearance of great courage, for he does not hasten to take himself away as the garter snakes and grass snakes do, but this is because it is his habit to remain upon the rocks, and if he hides, to secrete himself in their ledges. The only other snake to be found in the Glen is the spreading adder (Heterdon contortrix), which is also frightening to the timorous. He hisses loudly and distends his body like a cobra, often holding his ground and hoping to disturb you by a horrid appearance.\npear 49 pear049.jpg The box-turtle or tortoise (Terrapene carolina) is another reptile to be found in the Glen, and the most timorous need not fear him. The infinitely slow, creaky progress he makes, his protective plates, and the hissing with which he conceals his timidity, recall the animal life of bygone ages. So slow and noisy is he, indeed, as he makes his laborious excursions, that it is a mystery how he can catch his prey.\nThe avifauna of the Glen is distinctly limited by the fact that no marsh birds, or field or orchard birds, are normally found in these forest trees, nor game birds, for the matter of that, though of course on their migrations many species pass transiently through the Glen. Even just outside its limits, along the course of the Pacolet, one sees and hears many familiar and pleasing species, like the song sparrow, that are not natural members of the choice bird society of the wild life preserve itself.\nFew of the Glen birds, save the splendid Master Cardinal, are of brilliant plumage, or, if bright-colored, are so small and retiring as to escape notice. And few are exclusively vegetarian or even omniverous; the vast majority have a fancy for insects and other animal fare. The chief families who frequent the Glen are warblers, vireos, sparrows, flycatchers, titmice, woodpeckers and thrushes.\nThe little screech owl and the great horned owl are heard at night, and their vigor assures the listener that they have been well sustained by their fare. It includes small birds, mice, snakes, rabbits, squirrels, rats, chickens, toads and the like. The cry of the big Bubo virginianus has been translated by someone's nimble imagination as \"Who cooks for\nyou-all?\" I have also heard the whip-poor-will at night somewhere in the depths of the forest, but I think he prefers the Carolinian zone. The sweet\npear 50 pear050.jpg sound of mourning doves is heard here in spring and summer. The woodpeckers include the noisy flicker, the downy and hairy woodpeckers, and the red-headed woodpecker, all industrious carpenters who drill the bark of trees for the subcortical insects, but who also eat sow-bugs and ants, sumach and cat-briar berries, and mistletoe when they can get it.\nIt is a marvelous sight to see a woodpecker applying his ear to the bark to listen for the noise of the wood insects boring their harmful way into the trees. When the bird has located his prey his drilling powers are astonishing and must spread terror among the creatures beneath the bark.\nThe flycatchers include the phoebe, that industrious chaser of insects, and the wood pewee, whose monotonous \"See! See, sir!\" is the voice of the dog-days, persistent even through the heat of noon.\nThe brown creeper (Certhia familiaris americana) has a bill all too weak to penetrate the bark for his insect fare, so he must be content with what he finds in the crevices which he inspects all day, pursuing his dizzy way in spirals.\nThe black and white creeper (Mniotilta varia) is really a warbler with the restless spiral habits of the creepers and their lack of attractive song, who also cleans the trees of bark vermin. The other warblers are generally handsomer and more musical. Most of our warblers are species of Dendroica, such as the black-throated blue, the black-throated green, the chestnut-sided, and yellow warblers. They are a various and fascinating group, and he who knows all the warblers apart, male and female, is wise indeed. In general, these wood sprites keep high out of sight in the tops of trees, whence they let fall at\npear 51 pear051.jpg times, as if in reverie or rapture, such fragments of their songs as it pleases them to bestow.\nThe beauty of bird songs may be judged by the emotions and reveries they awake in us, and for me the tameless happiness and swift melodies of the warblers will never be surpassed by any bird music. Only to remember the \"Beecher-beecher, beechee, beechee, beech\" of a warbler I once heard for a whole spring at Pearson's Falls is to see the magic charm of the whole Glen, the swaying of the maidenhair, the passage of white clouds through blue sky high over beech and hemlock, to hear the laughter of the brook, the drumming of fine spray on the great rhombic leaves of Trillium and scent the rich odor of the fecund loam.\nNo bird of them all is more beloved in the Carolinas than the little winged creature that is named for them, the Carolina wren (Thryothorus ludovicianus). What a glorious energy it has, pouring out its song with amazing intensity and volume from its tiny body! \"If you hear a barrelful of song in a pint of bird,\" said someone, \"it's a wren.\" It flies for but a short distance, beating its wings rapidly and jerking its tail. This tail plays a part in all it does. When the bird is silent, the tail is erect; when the heartening song pours forth, it is dropped downward. The wren knows nothing of any vow of silence, and his clear, determined note brings brightness even to the somber recesses of the Glen's most shadowy coves.\nTo the handsome finch family belongs our red-bird or cardinal. I hope you will see him flash across the thundering waterfall from one dogwood tree in airy flower to another, uttering his exultant cry, \"Whooit, wooit, wooit, whee-you!\" The mountain children speak of his song as \"hollerin',\" and it is little else.\npear 52 pear052.jpg Of the sparrow family, my favorite is Zonotrichia albicollis, the white-throat or Peabody bird, whose notes of piercing sweetness, descending in quarter-tones in a touching chromatic, are the most haunting strains in the American forest, and the far-famed nightingale does not surpass them for clarity and passion. But where our little winter bird lets his voice drop from a high note, the nightingale, also beginning on one, goes higher still, up and up to a heart-breaking pitch on which, with a fine sense of drama, he lets his voice swell out unexpectedly like an experienced coloratura. Our white-throat's simple performance is pensive and sorrowful. He seems perpetually to be bidding us good-bye, to be saying, \"Long ago, long ago, long ago!\" as if then were the only happy time, and he will continue this even upon days of pouring spring rain; indeed, he delights, apparently, in the silvery downpour, and hastening from covert to covert, he casts his spell as if ventriloquistically, and with intent to astonish.\nThe thrush family includes, besides the European nightingale, the hermit thrush, our common wood thrush, and the veery or Wilson's thrush (Hylocichla fuscescens), the most modest member of the family in the Glen. His sweet, soft, rather swinging \"Vehu, vreha, vrehu!\" is a common sound in the depths of the green wood, and he often serenades well into twilight. The wood thrush (Hylocichla mustelina) is a much more moving singer, and no twilight or dawn is complete without him. He sings most, of course, in the mating season, but his song is continued into July up to the moulting season, so that either there is some wooing to be done well into the summer, or else he entertains his mate through the tedium of incubation. In the fine weather of spring he may begin at\npear 53 pear053.jpg four in the afternoon and sing till seven. As the season advances the span of moments between the refreshing fall of twilight with its longed-for coolness, and the dark, becomes shorter and shorter, and we in the South listen breathlessly in July to the few notes of benediction he utters, until at last he is heard no more.\nNot much can be said of the mammals in the Glen, as the species that survive the constant hunting of the mountaineers are mostly nocturnal and extremely wary. To be absolutely assured that this or that animal had a home there, it would be necessary to set traps, and this is opposed to the policy of a wild-life sanctuary. The Virginia deer, the black bear, and the mountain lion are gone; the fox is said to persist, but I never saw one in the Glen. A raccoon I have seen, and there is little doubt that certain other species pass through there at night, since they are common in the region.\nThe famous marsupial, the opossum (Didelphis virginiana), is the most primitive of local animals. Little need be told any American about the habits of this quaint, rather stupid creature, since he is celebrated in the lore and literature of the Southern States. That his mate transports her young in abdominal pouches, that they play \"dead\" when overtaken, are well-known facts about these nocturnal, arboreal, omniverous creatures. They may have been sufficiently well adapted to life before the coming of the white man, but they are no match for him with his gun and his hound. When pressed by dogs they take refuge in trees, but the axe and the torch soon bring them down, and their feigning of death does not deceive the astute hounds. Only their fecundity enables them to survive as a species, and it is well that they find a haven\npear 54 pear054.jpg at Pearson's Falls. It is interesting to remember that they are related to the kangaroos of Australia.\nThe raccoon (Procyon lotor) is a far more skillful animal. His slyness is fox-like, and though he is sometimes treed by dogs, he has learned that this is fatal to him and does not often commit this mistake save when the hounds almost have him in their jaws. Once treed, he is smoked out by his persecutors, who are often avengers of his raids upon mountain farms for chickens and geese. Like a highwayman, his eyes peer out through a black mask and his ways are stealthy. He also is nocturnal and arboreal, and often steals along the branches in search of bird's eggs and fledglings, and finding them, destroys and kills with speed and little mercy. His hide fetches a fair price, so that he is closely harried and needs a sanctuary, though no wild-life preserve will deter him from his raids. One can only say that God in His wisdom created carnivores, of whom man is one, and that pity is not natural to any of the animals save man.\nRats and mice are no doubt inhabitants of the Glen, although they can get much better fare by frequenting agricultural districts. Bats are seen by those rare persons who remain until twilight, pursuing midges and other crepuscular insects through the air with inimitable grace and skill. I do not know what species of bats inhabit the sanctuary. One rarely gets a good look at a bat save when one is injured and falls to the ground. Bats are said to inhabit hollows of trees at times, but owls and woodpeckers, I should think, would leave them few vacant apartments of that sort. I believe that the bats of the region chiefly inhabit caves; the roof of a small cave visited on Tryon mountain was simply covered with brown bats, and there are far more caves in the mountain than\npear 55 pear055.jpg most people realize. I do not see how anyone can he horrified by these little flying mice. How can one help enjoying their pixie faces, their fantastic wings, their goblin ears, marvelously complicated and acute?\nIt is probable that Pearson's Falls is known to the Southern or wood rabbit (Sylvilagus floridanus), but I do not think it is his preferred habitat; one often sees him in the Carolinian zone, lured by vegetable gardens and sown fields. Squirrels, too, no doubt inhabit the Glen, but the mountaineers have pretty well done for them in our region. They are most abundant at present in the balsam zone of the high mountains, and their place in the Glen is largely taken by the chipmunk or ground-squirrel (genus Tamias), who is too small to be worth molesting, but is as gay and friendly as he is diminutive.\nWe arrive now at his majesty the skunk (Mephitis), that portly and fearless member of the weasel family. I have not seen any skunks at Pearson's Falls, but I have certainly known that they passed that way. However, do not think of the skunk as too menacing. If his lordship passes close to you it is best to stand still; the skunk makes no unprovoked attacks. He is far from stupid and even (when de-natured) a gentle and amusing pet, but he is too dreaded to win affection, and is, to boot, rather ridiculous with his waddling obesity. His one undeniable beauty is the famous white stripe down his back, giving distinction to his fine black fur. He is said to stroll out to take the air with all his family in single file of a fine summer evening, but I have not met any of these dignified family processions. Skunks are carniverous and nocturnal by preference, but one does sometimes encounter them by daylight. I believe they do not hibernate in this mild climate.\npear 56 pear056.jpg High in the family tree of the mammals is our wild cat (Lynx rufus), a nocturnal and partially arboreal animal of considerable daring and cunning. Besides the small mammals and birds which he undoubtedly feeds on, he has the temerity to attack farm poultry. At Caesar's Head I stayed with a mountaineer who was enraged with a wild cat that was killing his sheep, one or two a night. A trap proved his undoing. As we came on the trap he flew into a rage, snarling and spitting and flinging himself about in spite of his captured paw, and the bullet with which the farmer dispatched him seemed merciful indeed. He looked rather like a large tom-cat, was rust-colored, and had a strong, unpleasant odor that was noticeable even to us humans when we picked him up. No doubt, other animals smell this at a distance, and so give the fellow a wide berth.\nI once knew an old gentleman up on Tryon Mountain who claimed to have been attacked by a wildcat in the night, and to have had a terrific fight with it, being armed only with a stick. If this story be true, the cat must have been a female defending her kittens, for even a wildcat ordinarily flees from man. Reprisals by the farmers for poultry raids are natural, and a wild-cat hunt is the most exciting sport of the region. With men yelling and shooting, hounds leaping and baying, youngsters racing about, wild as the cats themselves, all lighted by the fat pine flambeaux, the scene is one of the most exciting imaginable, at once picturesque and terrifying.\nThe underlying rock of Pearson's Falls is Whiteside granite, a very old and fine-grained rock, composed of orthoclase and plagioclase feldspars, quartz, biotite, and muscovite; there is, in addition, more or less of Henderson granite, which is darker and coarse and contains large crystals of porphyritic orthoclase feldspar. In the brook one sees many beautiful pebbles of milky quartz, sometimes white, sometimes pinkish; and in the quartz sand along the brook are to be seen innumerable sparkling grains of mica and of fool's gold or iron pyrite.\nThe soil, except for the sand along the course of the brook, is of the series called Porter's loam. The first three or four inches are generally composed of blackish or gray loam highly charged with organic matter\u2014a rich humus very much of the type desired in average garden soils. Beneath this there is a yellowish brown loam of granular texture, while the subsoil is a reddish brown clay-loam.\nA few soil tests have been made by Dr. Edgar T. Wherry at Pearson's Falls.* The soil of the upper forested slopes is low subacid, but the soil of the lower slopes, which have not been leached by run-off and seepage, is even less acid, having the lowest acidity in the county, identical with that of the brook water itself.\u2020 It is, indeed, a soil almost at neutrality, or midway between acid and alkaline, an almost ideal garden soil, which explains the predominance of many plant families loving ''sweet\" soils, like the Lily, Buttercup, Saxifrage and Violet Families.\n*For details see introduction to my \"Flora of the Tryon Region.\"\n\u2020The water of the brook, by the way, should not be drunk unless boiled. One had best carry his own drinking water.\nA Catalogue of Ferns and Seed Plants Found at\nPearson's Falls and in the Peaks Above\nFERNS (Pteridophytes)\nVirginia Polypody (Polydium virginianum)

        "raw_content": "The North Dublin Street Tramways Company operated horse trams for just over 4.5 years \u2014 from December 1876 to July 1881 - following which, the company, along with the other two city centre tramways (the Dublin Tramways Company and the Dublin Central Tramways Company) was subsumed into the newly formed Dublin United Tramways Company. Photographs which unequivocally date from the above period appear not to have survived, so it is currently impossible to say with any degree of certainty whether or not horsecar crews wore uniforms, or for that matter, any other form of official insignia such as badges or licences. However, given that the successor company \u2014 the DUTCo - did not see fit to issue uniforms to its staff until the advent of electrified services, some 15+ years later, it seems highly likely that staff of the NDTCo simply wore informal attire: jackets, shirt and ties, and the fashionable headgear of the day, in all probability the bowler hat.\nFor a short history of this system, see: 'Through Streets Broad and Narrow' by Michael Corcoran; Midland Publishing (2000).",

Orangerie in Kassel is located just 400 meters from the former Royal Palace of the city. Its construction to this day is beautiful and the imposing building marks the beginning of the northern part of Kassel. Orangerie is located within the park of Karlsaue.\nThe beautiful Palace is built as a peak in the beautiful gardens made by order of the ruler Charlemagne, who gave the name of the local area. The building was erected among the baroque garden in 1710 and is ongoing near the Fulda river gives completeness to the natural beauty of the park Karlsaue.\nA conservatory was built as a summer house or more like an enclosed indoor garden where cultivated orange, lemon trees and various palms could thrive.\nThe presence of such a garden for the region was rare and was loaded with rare botanical specimens of the Mediterranean. Sufficient is the fact that the cultivation of such plants in an artificial environment requires enormous heating costs, proper lighting, etc.\nSimple heating of trees and various exotic species in these greenhouses in the 18th century was done by raising the hot air of a purpose-designed system. Around 1747 the greenhouse was home to a live rhinoceros named Clara, who showed particular respect to fruit grown in this beautiful palace in Kassel.\nThe architect of the beautiful greenhouse was Johann Conrad Giesler, who built a 140 m long building, consisting of a one-story base with several two-and three-story pavilions in the design. In 1750 Baroque master - Johann Georg K\u00f6tschau carved the beautiful statues depicting various gods, goddesses and mythological figures that were once situated on the roof of the greenhouse.\nThe Orangerie in Kassel continued to operate as such until the Second World War. Since 1992 the baroque jewel housed, Kassel's Museum for Astronomy and Science. Just after the door of the conservatory you can see a beautiful marble bathroom, which was designed by Pierre Etienne Monnot who lived in the Castle between the years of 1714 - 1729.\nDuring the previous century the sculptor began work on statues, which depict Greek and Roman gods and other mythological times. He sold most of them as they entered into the composition of the marble bath in his conservatory. There you can see part of \"Metamorphoses\" - a popular work of the ancient Roman poet - Ovid.\nOrangerie in Kassel ,\nBaroque Castles",

        "raw_content": "Using Antibacterial Soap Is Cause for Concern\nResearch Shows Using Antibacterial Soap Is Cause for Concern. With winter and flu season drawing near, we become more aware of how we may help ourselves and our family prevent illness and avoid germs. We\u2019ve been \u201ctaught\u201d by the media and healthcare professionals alike, washing our hands with antibacterial soap is our best defense for warding off germs. However, research has uncovered alarming warnings on the use of such products. We felt it important to share.\nTriclosan Research Points to Cause for Concern\nFollowing various studies on the use of the toxic antibacterial agent triclosan in various consumer products, experts have recommended manufacturers remove this chemical from formulations as a precaution.\nOne expert, Elizabeth Salter Green, director of ChemTrust, has stated the chemical may not be safe to use at any level. She says under certain circumstances it can develop the ability to disrupt hormones.\nTriclosan is found in many consumer products, including antibacterial soaps and body washes, toothpastes, and some cosmetics. However, triclosan is not benign. It\u2019s a powerful chemical agent, known to cause cancer.\nThe FDA has reported it does not have at this time, evidence triclosan added to soaps and body washes provides any additional health benefit over soap and water.\nAnother alarming claim reported by the National Coalition Against the Misuse of Pesticides, is that manufacturers of a number of triclosan-containing products, advertise to consumers the active ingredient (triclosan) will continue to work for as long as 12 hours after use! What does this mean? It means consumers are exposed to this toxic chemical for much longer than the handful of seconds it takes to wash their hands or face.\nSince our skin is porous it was designed to be absorbent. It\u2019s able to absorb whatever it comes in contact with. Habitual use of chemical-laden products allows the body to store these chemicals in body fat or even in the brain. When the body becomes overloaded with these accumulations of toxins, illness can occur.\nIn addition, a study done by the University of Florida found levels of triclosan were potentially damaging to the unborn fetus, if ingested by the carrying mother. One way it could be inadvertently ingested would be through the use of a toothpaste containing triclosan.\nScientists at the Universities of California and Colorado have released new research data suggesting triclosan could lead to impaired muscle function. Isaac Pessah, the professor who led the study said, \u201cTriclosan is found in virtually everyone\u2019s home and is pervasive in the environment. These findings provide strong evidence the chemical is of concern to both human and environmental health.\u201c\nThe experiments found, when in the presence of triclosan, normal communication of proteins controlling muscle movement was impaired, leading to skeletal and cardiac muscle failure. The dosages used of the antibacterial agent in the experiments, were matched to the levels found in the list of personal care products, to duplicate regular consumer use as much as possible.\nProfessor of cardiovascular medicine at UC Davis, Nipavan Chiamvimonvat, stated, \u201cThe effects of triclosan on cardiac function were really dramatic. Although triclosan is not regulated as a drug, this compound acts like a potent cardiac depressant in our models.\u201d\nThe scientists went on to say, the experiments led researchers to believe exposure to triclosan in people with underlying heart failure, could have significant effects due to the chemical being so widely used. They did note, additional studies would need to be undertaken to provide conclusive evidence of this.\nProfessor Pessah went on to say, \u201cWe have shown triclosan potently impairs muscle functions by interfering with signaling between two proteins fundamentally important to life. Regulatory agencies should definitely be reconsidering whether it should be allowed in consumer products.\u201d\nSoap and water is an effective way to prevent germs.\nAdvertising messages are strong persuaders for consumers. Hearing the same messages over and over can lead consumers to believe something is the truth, or what is being advertised is safe to use. This is however, far from true.\nThe simple act of washing our hands with plain soap and water accomplishes the same thing as an antibacterial soap does \u2013 removing germs we may have picked up. Chemical agents such as triclosan are not only suspect for human health and unborn babies, but they also have an environmental impact, by affecting aquatic life in streams and rivers, and has the potential to end up in our drinking water. Sticking with plain soap and water will go a long way to help preserve the health of all of us, and our environment.",

        "title": "Ketosis Diet Reviews 2018 [WARNING] Does It Work or Scam?",
        "raw_content": "Ketosis Diet Reviews - What Is It?\nDO NOT BUY Ketosis Diet!!! You Must Read This Review!\nThe Ketosis Diet is a new kind of diet that is also known as the Ketogenic diet or Keto Diet. To understand what it is, let's take a look at the process called ketosis first. Well, this is a natural process when the human body starts to get accustomed to the small amount of food. In this period, the human body breaks down the deposited fats in the liver and releases ketones. As a result, energy is produced. The goal of the process is to enhance the metabolic process and encourage the body to transform fats into energy. In this way, the human body uses the ketones as a source of energy. Some doctors are sure that this is a useful process for the human health, better physical performance, weight loss and mental growth. As a rule, the ketosis diet is low in carbs. Some health professionals recommend this diet to people who want to boost their metabolism and control body weight.\nThe Ketogenic Diet was created as a treatment for epilepsy in 1920-1930 and proved to be quite successful. But it was abandoned with some new therapies of anti-convulsions, which failed to control the condition of epilepsy, though. So, some individuals suffering from epilepsy still used this diet for ketosis to manage the situation. A number of studies and research were carried out on this concept. In the early 1920s, Bernarr Macfadden, an American scientist, proved that this concept was a good way to restore health. Bernarr's student, Hugh Conklin, offered the method of fasting to treat epilepsy. The therapy was adopted as a treatment for epilepsy. The diet high in fat and low in carbs was named as the Ketogenic Diet by Russell Wilder in 1921.\nIngredients of Ketosis Diet - Does It Really Work? Is It a Scam?\nThe Ketogenic Diet is considered to be one of the most successful diet plans for weight loss. It has been popularized in lately a lot, especially among people who would like to lose unnecessary weight. It is claimed that this kind of a diet plan is easy to start, though it looks quite complicated at first. You will need to limit the consumption of carbohydrates (net carbs to 20 grams and total carbs to 35 grams per day). Limit the intake of proteins, since too much proteins result in lower level of ketosis. It is advised to consume about 2.8 grams of proteins per pound lean body mass daily. Consume enough fat, because it is the main source of energy for people on ketosis diet. Drink a lot of water (a gallon of water per day) to stay well-hydrated and to control the main metabolic functions and hunger. Reduce snacking because this negatively influences the process of weight loss. Remember about regular exercise to be healthy and to promote ketosis. It is advised to add twenty minutes of exercise each day. It can be running or fast walking.\nIt is important to understand the ingredients of the ketosis diet menu. Here is a generalized ketosis diet menu. The breakfast must be simple. Thus, it can include keto tea or coffee. It is recommended to take MCTs, also known as medium chain triglycerides, as well as MCFAs (Medium Chain Fatty Acids). These substances help to enhance the energy expenditure. Eat a lot of fats, because, the greater the amount of energy, the better your body will use it, activating the process of weight loss. The lunch is also simple. It may include meat, chicken or fish and salad with some fat. Add some green vegetables with healthy fats and spices like cinnamon. The dinner will include a lot of vegetables, meat, a slather of butter. Desserts are prohibited, at least for the first two weeks.\nKetosis Diet is not as wonderful as it may seem at first. It can even cause a number of side effects, for instance, muscular cramps that usually occur in the morning or at night. It is a sign that the dieter has a lack of magnesium in the body. It is important to consume a lot of fluid along with salts to help reduce the loss of magnesium. Another common side effect is constipation that is usually the result of dehydration. This is another reason to drink a lot of water and to eat some vegetables, which contain a lot of fiber. Some dieters experience heart palpitations. If the issue persists for a long time, drink a lot of fluid with some salt in it. You may face hair loss and formation of gallstones as a result of dieting. People who practice keto diet often experience diminished physical performance. This can be associated with the body's switching from using carbohydrates to fat for creating energy, strength and endurance. You may notice increased level of cholesterol due to the increase of the good cholesterol, which lowers the risk of heart diseases.\nThere are few customer reviews about Ketosis Diet online. It means that people are not interested in this kind of diet. Some of the available testimonials are positive, while others are not. The dieters are not happy with the necessity to limit or to refuse from foods they are used to. There are definite keto foods, which must be restricted. For example, it is necessary to limit the consumption of fast-acting carbohydrates or sugars like honey, white or brown syrup, different types of grains, white rice, oats, brown rice with corn tortillas, products made of flour, muffins, bagels, bread, and pasta; other processed foods like chips, pretzels, cookies, pies, ice cream, cakes, cakes, waffles, cereal oatmeals, artificial sweeteners, canned soups, soda, fruit juices, alcohol, sweetened tea, etc. Let us take a look at the actual customers' reviews on third-party websites.\n\"I bought the Ketosis Diet book to learn how to plan a ketogenic diet for healthy and effective weight loss. To my mind, the book has achieved its goal in informing the beginner how to follow the diet recommendations. It is a good guide for anyone who has decided to stick to the ketogenic diet; however, it carries a purely informative character. Some of the recipes I tried did not work out for me. The book will not be able to organize you, but it is your task to strictly stick to the diet.\"\n\"Ketosis Diet is not anything new for me. I regret wasting my money on this book. It can be quite informative for a keto beginner but it will not give you anything unique if you have been in the diet. This is an extremely thin book. Its pages are similar to those of a cheap newspaper. If you need a really informative cookbook you should look elsewhere.\"\n\"All this Ketosis Diet book does is explains how ketosis works and gives a few recipes that can be beneficial for beginners only. I didn't like their recipes at all! They are awful and not delicious! To my mind, the idea of Ketosis diet is insane. I didn't feel like losing too much weight. It is not worth dieting in this way.\"\nWhere To Buy Ketosis Diet?\nYou can order the product in the form of books from Amazon. 250+ Low-Carb, High-Fat Healthy Ketogenic Diet Recipes and Desserts costs $3. Ketosis Cookbook with 109 Ketogenic Diet Recipes can be ordered for $3. Ketosis: The Beginners Guide to Turning Your Body into A Fat Burning Machine! by Linda Westwood costs $6.

Ketosis Diet: 30 Day Plan for Optimal, Super-Effective Fat Loss by Steve Blum can be ordered for $14.38. The shipping is free on eligible orders. You will not find it on GNC or Walmart.\nLet's summarize the information we have learnt about Ketogenic Diet. This diet plan has intrigued many specialists in the medical field but only some of them supported it. The plan is easy to access but complicated and even difficult to perform. What dieters don't like about the diet is that it is associated with a number of strong restrictions and foods limitations. Besides, the diet proves to be very costly. Adding the right supplement to the diet is vital, since you are at high risk of experiencing certain side effects. The Ketogenic Diet has been scientifically proven to help boost weight-loss but it requires more research. Our team cannot recommend this diet to following.",

        "title": "053: Many Fish in the Sea",
        "raw_content": "053: Many Fish in the Sea\nWe often hear the saying \u201cThere are many fish in the sea\u201d, but what does it really mean? There\u2019s scarcity in our relationships. There\u2019s never enough people out there or love or interest or money. It\u2019s about the viewpoint that there\u2019s not enough. We talk about getting off your couch, out of your phone, put down your laptop, go and connect with real people to be real. Be connected in that intimacy. And then we have fear of letting go. What is that fear? What is that motivation to hold on? It just really comes back to our old friend scarcity, because in this world there is belief that there\u2019s not enough of anything in this world. People are scared to death to let go when they find someone. And this is a very strange thing. It\u2019s like we find someone, we invest a month, six months, a year, three years, four years, and then things start to go awry. If you want to learn how to overcome this fear of scarcity, just take a listen! It will be worth your while.\nWe\u2019re talking about the issues at hand, things that matter. This show is called Many Fish in the Sea. It\u2019s about the viewpoint that there\u2019s not enough. There\u2019s scarcity, there\u2019s not enough people out there or love, interest or money, that scarcity runs our lives. We talk about getting out of your couch, out of your phone, put down your laptop, go and connect, do a meetup, be real, be connected. In that intimacy, there\u2019s so much more possible. We then go up to Canada to talk to my friend, Steve, about his grand venture to moving into the relationship of dating men, his own feminine, his own relationship with his mom, how it\u2019s keeping him stuck and frozen in fear, and how we confront that part of ourselves. If we love our parents and love those dark, deep icky parts of ourselves, we can have more and more in our life.\nWe\u2019re here to talk about the issues at hand every week, talking about what needs to be talked about. I want to let everyone know that officially I feel like crap, physically and mentally. I want to give you an update for those who listened to last week\u2019s show. My dad had a stroke and he went to the hospital. To see your father and to see your family laid out like that is an emotional thing. I\u2019m not particularly that connected to my dad per s, but still to see someone who\u2019s been in my life all 46 years and beyond laid out like that was a pretty emotional thing. There were a lot of feelings around it.\nHe\u2019s much better now. He\u2019s much more stable. He was in ICU for a week and now he is definitely finding his breath, his heart rhythms, and all things are definitely getting more to the status quo. It was such an emotional thing. We had some intense conversations. Things change when you face death. Death is theoretical, \u201cI will ride into the fire of doom and it\u2019s a good day to die,\u201d all these theories we have about what death is and how we\u2019re going to face it. When it comes down to it, it\u2019s different. It really is different. I saw a change in him as he faced his own mortality and his fighter came out and it was pretty impressive to watch. Things are better.\nI flew back from San Francisco, supporting my mom and my family, and then spent the whole day working and then did the webinar with Ken Blackman on Straight Talkers. I woke up this morning and I was like, \u201cFuck this show. Fuck being on. Fuck being witty and smart,\u201d and then it\u2019s like, \u201cNo.\u201d This show is here for me to spread the word and I can\u2019t. It\u2019s my responsibility and so just know that. I\u2019m grateful for the show and grateful for my listeners and I would love for people to keep spreading it. This is my life\u2019s work. It\u2019s compressed in these shows I do. I don\u2019t get paid for this. I do accept donations but it\u2019s my way. If you want to help, subscribe on iTunes, give me a review on iTunes and spread it around. Pick your favorite show and post it on your wall if you like. Brag about it say, \u201cThis changed my life,\u201d or whatever. Do as you desire.\nFirst we\u2019re going to be doing a rant. I\u2019m doing a topic called Fish in the Sea about relationships and scarcity. Then we\u2019re going up to Canada, my new friend, Steve, to chat about some issue to see how we can change his life here on Tuff Love. This concept of Fish in the Sea was inspired by a friend of mine. She is an attractive woman. She was in a relationship with this guy a while ago. I don\u2019t give too many details, but she was a relationship with this guy for years and then it broke up four or five years. What happened was that they broke up and they were distant for a while and they got back together and then they had a hot and heavy romance for a couple of months and then he is being distant again.\nFish In The Sea: Death is theoretical.\nI was talking to her. I could feel inside of that her fear of taking the step to migrate from this relationship, which on some level has been her foundation. I\u2019m not here to judge the power and the healthiness of the relationship, that\u2019s not my role, but the dynamics around it. This is what I see. People are scared to death to let go when they find someone. This is a very strange thing. We find someone, we invest a month, six months, a year, three years, four years, and then things start to go awry, then we have fear of letting go. What is that fear? What is that motivation to hold on? It comes back to our old friend scarcity, because what we have in this world is belief that there\u2019s not enough of anything in this world and if you find someone, you need to keep her.\nI was doing some research on fish in the sea and I found there was a poem, 1896, that was the motivation for fish to the sea or something similar. \u201cThere\u2019s more than one pebble on the beach,\u201d is what this guy said. If you think about it, how many grains of sand there are and how much there is available? How many fish there are in the sea? How many people there are in the world? How many people are desperately lonely, looking for someone to spend their lives with to connect with and be intimate with? There\u2019s an extraordinary amount, but there\u2019s something that happens once you get someone. Is this person or not a keeper? It comes down to this foundational belief that there\u2019s not enough. What is the cost? What is the cost when you\u2019re in a relationship that you don\u2019t truly believe in? What is the cost when you\u2019re in something that you feel is your foundation? How do you move from the foundational piece of who you are with that person to who you are with yourself?\nThis ties into the last show on self-love, because it is the most important thing to do. Your belief in yourself, your belief in who you are, and your belief that you have enough by yourself is the most powerful thing possible. Without loving yourself, it\u2019s my belief that you can\u2019t love another person. You have to start with this self-love. The connection to it is if you\u2019re in a relationship that\u2019s not healthy, if you\u2019re in a relationship that\u2019s not expanding you, if you\u2019re in a relationship that you can\u2019t be honest and truly who you are, then I believe what\u2019s happening is that you\u2019re making yourself smaller and smaller and keeping yourself in a slowly, shrinking place. It\u2019s what we do time and time again.\nRelationships can also be more than romantic. It could be your work relationship, or it could be your love relationship. My point is, look at your place and look who you are. I was thinking about this and I was like, \u201cWhy does this apply to me?\u201d I\u2019ll go through my history. I was thinking about the topic of crushes. I did a Quora, it\u2019s a cool website like Reddit, on the concept of crushes. On that answer I said, \u201cI\u2019ve had thousands of crushes in my life and I continue to have crushes.\u201dI would tell Morgan about a crush last night and they just arise inside of me. You meet someone and you feel this desire for someone. What happens is that person either is in your life in a constant way or it\u2019s a drive-by crush. You meet someone at a party, it\u2019s a drive-by crush. You hold onto this feeling. You hold onto the past and then you hold onto your memories of that person, how you felt around them. You attribute all these feelings you have to them. Guess what? The feelings you have about that person is your feelings. You\u2019re choosing to take all this love, all this desire, all of this feeling, all this hunger and all these things that we make fun of and push on society, or you\u2019re wanting lust. You\u2019re a lecherous lust. You have that inside of you, your ability to feel them and what you do is you put them on someone else. When you can\u2019t have that person, then you think, \u201cI\u2019m not worthy,\u201d and you beat yourself up. You think yourself that you\u2019re not attractive enough, you\u2019re enough.\nYour feelings truly are your right. They\u2019re part of your human dynamic. It\u2019s like your blood flows through your brains. You breathe in and out, you have respiration. You\u2019re taking the O2. You let out CO2. The same thing happens with you with your desire and your lust. Your lust is right. Your desire is right. What we do is we take it and put it on someone else. When that person doesn\u2019t respond to us, then what happens is we go into misery. We go into this depression. We go into our room and write bad poetry. We listen to bad music, like Smiths songs, and live in the misery of the darkness or whatever the music is of this era. I don\u2019t like the music of this era. We live in the misery of it.\nKnow that the thing you want inside of you is right and be willing to pursue it.\nThere are many fish in the sea. There are many places to put your attention. There are many places where you can put your love. We think that this person is the thing. It\u2019s not the thing. The thing is who you are and who you are in relationship to the world. \u201cThese are great theories, Rob. What do we do with it? What do we do to live a more full life? How do we live in a place where we can stand?\u201d The first thing is, again, it\u2019s right back to the same thing. Show and show and time and time again, work on your self-esteem. Work on your own self-love. Know that the thing you want inside of you is right and be willing to pursue it. Be willing not to make compromises on the way.\nI see this a lot in relationships as people are making compromises. They\u2019re compromising their self, they\u2019re compromising what they truly want rather than being honest with their partners and with themselves. This concept of many fish in the sea. There are many constants out there. People are going to flow in and out of your life, but who you are is the connection to it. You\u2019re the constant. You\u2019re the thing that\u2019s going to be there time and time again. Your ability to love yourself in that process is the key. Morgan hates when I talk about her on the show, she\u2019s like, \u201cAren\u2019t people sick of hearing about Morgan?\u201d I\u2019m like, \u201cNo, we\u2019re going to keep talking about you because you inspire me, you teach me.\u201d This is the thing that she\u2019s taught me is there\u2019s a difference between wanting and desiring and manifesting versus avoiding.\nI don\u2019t know a lot about the Law of Attraction. I don\u2019t know if I even believe in the law of attraction. I haven\u2019t put enough time and energy into it, but I do know that where you put your attention, things happen. There are a lot of people I know and a lot of people I coach who are wanting someone to avoid something. They want to avoid feeling lonely. They want to avoid feeling listless. They want to avoid their own self-defeating attitude about who they are. They don\u2019t want to confront that, \u201cI wanted to be with a person so I don\u2019t have to feel ashamed.\u201d\nYour ability to move towards what you want and how you want it is the most powerful trick you can have. What happens is if you\u2019re focusing on what you don\u2019t want, what you\u2019re avoiding, what happens is that part of you grows. When you put your attention on what you want to look forward, that\u2019s where you get what you want. A lot of people think that, \u201cNo, I\u2019m not avoiding loneliness. I\u2019m not avoiding sadness. I\u2019m not avoiding regret. This rebound relationship, I\u2019m not avoiding pushing away.\u201d It\u2019s a dangerous thing not to confront this piece. A lot of my experience of the last year of my business was me avoiding the feelings of losing my primary business. I did a lot of self-work and a lot of therapy to realize that a lot of the choices I made were avoiding feeling the feelings. I had to recreate the situation. If you want to confront, grow, expand and move past these places where you feel stuck, confront the feelings of the pain first before you go searching.\nBack to the fish in the sea. I\u2019m amazed in today\u2019s society how things are changing. Things are changing a lot to do with social media. Here we are, I\u2019m on Facebook live, I\u2019m talking to Ireland, I\u2019m talking to California, I\u2019m talking to New York, I\u2019m talking to London, I\u2019m talking to all these different places. I think I have Texas on there. I\u2019m talking to all these places and what happens is I\u2019m able to connect. I go to my Facebook and I\u2019m connected to different tribes and different people. I\u2019m watching social media and I\u2019m watching all these pieces and there\u2019s some part of us that feels like that\u2019s enough, that we feel connected enough through the social media or we have our ubiquitous phone. We feel like we do the phone and we have enough connection. What happens is we avoid confronting that we need to go out in the world. How much of us would rather focus on our phone than we would connecting to another person? How often would we rather stay in and have to be on Facebook than to go to a meet up group to actually meet someone?\nFish In The Sea: In our world of isolation, we\u2019re moving into closer and closer and more and more isolated.\nFor all the lonely people out there, know there are thousands of other lonely people sitting at home waiting to meet you. I\u2019m not talking about just romantic relationships. I\u2019m talking about friendship, intimacy, men\u2019s groups, women\u2019s groups and clans. There are all these people out there. In our world of isolation, we\u2019re moving into closer and closer and more and more isolated. Your ability to go and step out of your comfort zone to put down the damn phone, sit down, go to a caf\u00e9, and talk to someone. Put down your laptop. You go to a Starbucks. There\u2019s 80% of the people, including me, are hacking on their laptops rather than connecting to the rich world that\u2019s out there. In your willingness to go and to put down the laptop, to put down the phone, that\u2019s where the fish in the sea are. They\u2019re swimming around you. They\u2019re so close and connected to you. If you want to be connected to someone, it\u2019s to go, feel, notice, and be true. The last thing I want to talk about is this concept of intimacy and how it helps. Men come to me and say, \u201cHow do I find a girlfriend?\u201d They say to me, \u201cI want a girlfriend.\u201d They\u2019re like, \u201cPlease, what do I do? What do I do to meet women?\u201d\nI often say this simple thing that challenges them, \u201cGo find women friends. Go find women to be around to be friends with. Don\u2019t be around them to find a girlfriend. Go around them so you can feel intimate and connected to people.\u201d In that connection, there\u2019s so much strength and availability for you and what happens is you\u2019re around people. The fish in the sea, everyone knows someone. Everyone has a friend, \u201cMy friend Rob, he could use a date.\u201d Make sure that there are possible connections, but for you to have that connection, you need to get out of your comfort zone, into the world, and into connection. If you\u2019re whining about, \u201cThere\u2019s no one out there. I\u2019m never going to meet a good guy. I\u2019m not going to meet a proper guy,\u201d then that\u2019s on you. That\u2019s on you, unwilling to do the work, to clean up your own shit, connect, be real, and to see other people.\nI was a very nerdy guy. It\u2019s hard to see with the dashing, charismatic man I am now. I was extremely nerdy guy until I got scooped up by this woman and then I met other women. From the attention of men and women showing me who I am, I found my own strength and my power came out of it. Look around and be willing to connect with those who want to be connected to. That, my friends, is this episode\u2019s rant.\nLet\u2019s bring Steve on the line. Steve, how are you?\nGood. What\u2019s happening?\nI\u2019m in a transition right now with a bunch of different things. I\u2019m slowing down in one business and starting up another one. I also ended a relationship with a woman and now I\u2019m interested in men right now. A lot of stuff is coming up and I\u2019m getting a little bit confronted. I\u2019m getting moody and all kinds of stuff. Can I tell you about a dream I had last night?\nYou remember Star Trek Next Generation?\nBeverly, in my dream, she is looking in the mirror. There was some episode where she goes in those holographs. You know how Beverly was always hot but she never had steady love interest. Whenever she would meet a man, it would always be this fleeting thing. Beverly, in my dream, she\u2019s looking at this man. He\u2019s this tall, dark, handsome character. He\u2019s romantic. He\u2019s mysterious more than anything else. She\u2019s swooning at him, but then in my dream he literally turns into a mirror and she\u2019s resisting this the whole time. She\u2019s like, \u201cNo, I don\u2019t want my fantasy be crushed.\u201d He turns into this mirror and she\u2019s wincing and she can\u2019t deal with it. That\u2019s pretty much the dream. I don\u2019t know what you think about that, but I can tell you what that means for me. My interpretation of that was I have been longing for a powerful, dominant guy to come into my life and to explore my sexuality with someone like that. I have this image of that but at the same time in my life, I also need my own power to be active right now. I\u2019m starting a new business and I feel a little bit torn between being masculine out in the world, going and creating, and then being feminine and receptive. There\u2019s this tension and I\u2019m wincing. I\u2019m not at ease.\nMasculinity is focus, single-pointed. Femininity takes it all in.\nThere\u2019s so much we can work with. What I\u2019m hearing is you\u2019re a dichotomous mind. You\u2019re hearing either or, \u201cEither I am feminine in the relationship to receive a dominant and powerful man, or I need to be masculine so I can be out in the world creating.\u201d My belief in you and anyone is that you can have both. You are brilliant, complex and flexible enough to migrate between your masculine and feminine from work to home. I will give you a warning because this is happening often in the world. A lot of women are complaining to me and in social media and the world that they are out in the world, their masculine is rising. They need to be masculine in the boardroom as they get more empowered positions. They\u2019re having trouble transitioning from masculine out in the world to feminine in the bedroom. My friend, John Wineland, who I respect a lot, does a lot of work with this and it does a lot with clarity and does a lot with David Deida stuff. Your fear is real and true and at the same time you are able. You\u2019re possible and you are capable of doing both. Do you believe that?\nYes, I do believe that.\nThe practice you have is just to know that. Here\u2019s the question. What does feminine mean to you in the world? What does feminine mean to you in relationship? How do you perceive that?\nFeminine means being in the flow, being emotional, being receptive, allowing things to happen, not trying to control the situation but rather allowing the situation to unfold, and being attentive to what\u2019s going on in a 360 degree view. Masculinity is focus, single-pointed. Femininity takes it all in. It doesn\u2019t have anywhere to go and nowhere to be. It\u2019s open.\nDo you think you have the ability to do that?\nIt\u2019s growing. I have resistance to it, for sure.\nWhich piece do you have resistance to?\nAlways going somewhere and being somewhere and pursuing. There\u2019s an anxiety that I\u2019m 34 and I\u2019ve lived the vast majority of my life as a straight man and have often got my self-worth out of accomplishing things and being masculine.\nYour mind is very masculine. Your presentation of this problem is very masculine. Just so you know that. I\u2019m not saying this is good or bad, I\u2019m reflecting back what is. You do have definitive boxes of who you are and what you are. Have you ever been in relationship with a man?\nSexually a couple of times, but in a relationship, no.\nI don\u2019t know if it\u2019s so much the masculine, feminine. My feeling is not so much the masculine and feminine. It\u2019s who you are, the changes in you. I think you\u2019re nervous. You\u2019re solid and you\u2019re a good guy. My interpretation of you from the two times we\u2019ve met is you\u2019re quite solid, sweet, and powerful. In this new role of being in relationship with a man, you have both a portion of fear of who you are going to become and excitement, and those are revving up right next to each other. We can talk about excitement for a long time, but let\u2019s delve into the fear. Who do you fear becoming in relationship to a man? What\u2019s your worst case scenario?\nThe worst case scenario is I lose my directionality. I lose my ability to be powerful. I lose my will. My worst case is I become depressive and withdrawn, and I suppose dependent upon another man\u2019s soul or energy.\nDo you have any examples of that in your life?\nSure. My mom.\nWe\u2019re coaches. We\u2019re coaches and it always comes back to the parents on some level. I know the answer before I asked the question. It\u2019s a coaching trick. Your feeling around your mom is all those things you said. On some level, entering into this new world, which for a 34-year-old, this is a brand new experience. This is not like you\u2019re fourteen or fifteen, still growing, expanding. You\u2019re pretty set in your ways. The main example you have of being feminine in the relationship is with your mom.\nWhat\u2019s your viewpoint of her side of the relationship? Not your dad\u2019s side, but your mom\u2019s side. How did you perceive her? How did you feel she was as a person?\nThat she wasn\u2019t willing to take responsibility for her emotions. Happy or sad, it was always somebody else\u2019s problem. She didn\u2019t take care of herself, so she didn\u2019t do what she needed to do to be present, grounded, available, and content. She often complained to the world. She would complain about people not meeting her needs, and that she would be often abandoned. There was a continual abandonment theme with her friends, with other extended family, with myself as well and dad.\nLet\u2019s presence this. Let\u2019s acknowledge this. Let\u2019s honor that this is the driver of your soul. Whether you want to consciously agree with it or not, this is the formation in your mind of what it means to be feminine in your relationship. You\u2019re going to have to confront not only your own fear, but you\u2019re going to have to confront that this is your training. This is on some level your belief system. Here\u2019s the hardest part. You\u2019re going to have to love your mom in order for you to love your feminine.\nThank you. That sounds very true. That feels true.\nFish In The Sea: You\u2019re going to have to love your mom in order for you to love your feminine.\nThat is no easy feat.\nYes. I do love her. I have a good relationship with her in spite all these things I just said. I\u2019ve moved through a lot of resentment around her and I recognized that I still have ways to go.\nAgain, this is a masculine. You\u2019re viewing your relationship to your mom\u2019s feminine into your own feminine, with your masculine mind. \u201cI have a long way to go.\u201d This is a masculine viewpoint because the masculine think there\u2019s some path to follow in life. There\u2019s no path to follow, my friend. You\u2019re building a bridge to nowhere. You\u2019re improvising your life. That is the magical piece of it. I have to confront my relationship to my dad when I confront my relationship to Morgan, my lady, if that makes sense. I have to look at all aspects of my viewpoints against my dad, who he was as a man, and the parts of him I didn\u2019t like. I didn\u2019t like the way he related to my mom, the whole ad infinitum. If I ignore them, then they run me. If I confront them and love him in that, then I can love that part that was installed inside of me, if that makes sense.\nYour mom has been your teacher who you\u2019ve been the feminine. What you have the opportunity to do in real life practice is take the best elements of your mom. The parts of you that raised such an impressive young man like you, a warm, connectable, beautiful man that you are, you\u2019re going to have to confront those best parts. The parts that don\u2019t serve her or you don\u2019t perceive will serve you, you\u2019re going to have to say, \u201cNo, thank you.\u201d It\u2019s not like, \u201cFuck you.\u201d That\u2019s our natural inclination. \u201cFuck you whiny. Fuck you dependent.\u201d We want to beat those parts that we don\u2019t want. You can\u2019t do that. You have to pull it in and love it and say, \u201cNo, thank you.\u201d That\u2019s mastery. This is easy for me to say on the show for fifteen minutes, but that\u2019s the practice. That\u2019s your mastery in life, is for you to engage and be real in this.\nOn point. I have nothing to say but yes.\nYou\u2019re helping a lot of people. We all have wounds around our parents. I can tell you I just saw my dad and we got into a heated discussion about the time he withdrew his love flat out. He flat out admitted. \u201cI didn\u2019t like who you were. I wasn\u2019t going to be involved in this relationship. I bailed.\u201d My father bailed on me. I have to live with the reality that my father, when I was 30, bailed on me and withdrew his love for me. I can hate him for that, which is the status quo, or I can love him for who he is and say, \u201cNo, thank you,\u201d to that attribute. It\u2019s a practice like any other.\nQuestion for you. The masculine part of my mind is of course is like, \u201cHow do I do this?\u201d Give me the ten step program to loving my mom and my father too, because of course there\u2019s different wounds. A similar dynamic is at play where I\u2019m like, \u201cI can accept and honor these parts of you, but these parts I have a little bit of fuck you energy around.\u201d\nLet\u2019s pick one. Pick a fuck you for your mom.\nA fuck you for my mom is the victimhood story. The attachment to being a victim.\nHere\u2019s how you love it. Here\u2019s how I love it. You can look at the motivations of what caused her to be a victim. Do you have a clue? What do you think that is?\nHer parents withheld love. They didn\u2019t know how to express love, didn\u2019t accept her, and didn\u2019t have any space emotionally for her to be a little fucked up in any way. She was, whether whatever. Their struggle with depression and all kinds of mental illnesses threat her life, that\u2019s a tough go for any human.\nWhen you said that, I felt your empathy, I felt your understanding of that, and I felt your belief in her and who she is. If you can go back to that place where it\u2019s not your mom, it\u2019s just a person, and you feel the motivation and you feel understanding, then you can have empathy. Not having empathy for someone doesn\u2019t mean you excuse it. It\u2019s not like you\u2019re saying it\u2019s right or wrong. It\u2019s you understanding it, the motivation of who she was and how she became it. When you understand people\u2019s motivation, it\u2019s hard to be mad at them. This is often an argument when you\u2019re arguing with your partner and you\u2019re really mad at them and like, \u201cYou did this,\u201d and then once they reveal their motivations, then what happens is the tension tends to wipe away. It was like, \u201cYou were scared? You were lonely? You were bored? I understand your motivation,\u201d and then connection can occur.\nGo back to the motivations of whoever your mom was and then look at that. Here\u2019s the most important thing. You are not your mom. Create that separation between the two. If you look at your mom and then you look to your victimhood and then often look at your victimhood, look at those places that are inside of you that feel victimized and abandoned. If you love your mom there, then you can love your part. Once you love your part, then your mom\u2019s victimhood isn\u2019t as powerful.\nMy grandmother was nuts. She was bipolar, I didn\u2019t even know what it is. She\u2019s just manic, ADHD or whatever that fucking analogy of the thing is. She would put plastic covers on everything. She would put plastic on floors, she was afraid of dirt. My grandmother was nuts and my grandmother really withheld love from my dad. I could look at my dad\u2019s motivations of who he was and it totally makes sense to me. It doesn\u2019t make it easier to feel the feelings, but it makes me understand it. It enables my love to come up and out. Look at her motivations, that\u2019s the first thing. The second thing is to know that you\u2019re not your mom. You are your own, separate, beautiful being.\nThe area in my life where I run a victim story is around money. I wound up with a lot of debt after school. It wasn\u2019t just because I pursued school, it\u2019s because I spent half of my 20\u2019s being suicidally depressed. I\u2019m living under a rock more or less. I\u2019ve managed to get myself into a position where I have a solid income now. I make good money and the future is rosy. I make good money but my expenses are high because I\u2019m servicing an enormous debt and I will be for some time. It can feel like a sentence. I was listening to your self-love podcast and you were talking about a debt that you were experiencing. I was like, \u201cThis really sucks. How do I love this and accept this and recognize that there is a lot of lessons for me from what I\u2019ve been through and not let this be a woe is me story for the next five years while I pay this off.\u201d\nOne, look at the benefit of the \u201cWoe is me\u201d story.\nThe benefit is it\u2019s like somewhat soothing. It\u2019s like, \u201cYou had a tough go. You had a tough go in your 20s. You moved through a lot of shit and you\u2019re stronger for it now.\u201d It garners sympathy from myself and from other people sometimes, although I don\u2019t share that story much with other people.\nThe first thing is look at the benefit. Maybe you want to continue it or maybe you want to feel something else. I have a large debt. I made some mistakes in business. I hate paying it. I hate paying it. I don\u2019t want to pay thousand dollars for this debt per month. I want to buy Morgan some shoes. I want to go on and have adventures but that experience of the business, that twenty months changed the rest of my life. Now I know at 46, and we\u2019ll live another 40, 50 years, whatever it\u2019s going to be, I\u2019m never going to put myself in that situation again. I\u2019m grateful that I had that experience. This debt is my penance for me learning the lesson. It\u2019s my cost.\nThe more energy you put into \u201cWoe is me,\u201d the less there\u2019s creativity.\nSome people go to college, some people open businesses to learn these experiences. You were suicidal, those vibes, it feels like they\u2019re gone. That\u2019s your cost for moving through that, the childhood wounds you had to move through it. Every time you pay that off, you can think, \u201cI\u2019m grateful I\u2019m not in that suicidal place anymore. I\u2019m grateful that I have an income.\u201d When you switch your attention to what you do have and be like, \u201cThat was what happened.\u201d That\u2019s what I do. What I do is just be like, \u201cI\u2019m grateful for that experience because it changed my life for the better. Now I can make decisions and I personally think I\u2019m going to make back that debt in the next year.\u201d That\u2019s my viewpoint. I made six figures from my consulting business. We\u2019re running two businesses. I\u2019m going to make double that maybe with our friend\u2019s help. I totally believe that\u2019s going to happen. Maybe change it from, \u201cThis is a burden. Woe is me,\u201d into, \u201cThis is motivation to pay this fucking debt and double my income.\u201d It becomes a game of your masculine. There could be something there. The more energy you put into woe is me, the less there\u2019s creativity. What I do is I switch and I\u2019m like, \u201cHow do I get creative to pay this off and keep sane?\u201d\nThank you. Yes, that\u2019s helpful.\nThat\u2019s all the time we\u2019ve got today, Steve. Thank you so much for being on the show. I really appreciate it. I look forward to where our friendship goes and look forward to hearing about your tales and your new relationship. I\u2019m excited for you. It\u2019s a wonderful time.\nLikewise, thank you.

        "raw_content": "This is a hard one. Everything seems to be the reverse of popular view.\nThe great religious leaders and philosophers tell us to divest ourselves of pride, and put on humility.\nJesus said that he was meek, and the meek shall inherit the earth.\nAnd the Psalms tell us again that the meek shall inherit the earth, and Proverbs make it clear that a man's pride will bring him low and cause him destruction.\nHumility, by definition is to have low self-esteem, to be in a low political or social class. Self-esteem on the other hand means to be proud, self-confident, even conceited.\nWho wants to set a goal for them self, and spend their life striving for the bottom of the pack? To be the one everyone uses as a footstool?\nCan you imagine a mother sending her son off to school with these instructions: \"Remember now, Johnny, I want you to be humble today and let everyone walk all over you without saying a word. And one day, when you are grown, you will have a fine future living on the streets and picking up cans and bottles for your livelihood.\"\nI don't think so. I think rather that her instructions would be more like: \"Johnny, remember, don't take guff from anyone. Stand tall and proud, work hard to be the top of your class so that someday you can be a doctor or judge, maybe even President. Make your father and me proud.\"\nOr, how about a commercial that says: \"We guarantee that by using our product you will lose all self-esteem and feel poorly about yourself.\"\nAgain, I don't think so.\nSo, what are we to do? Do we struggle to make these few years on this earth all we can for ourselves? After all, it's the only thing in our field of sight that we have for sure. And even that is only provided to us day by day.\nOr do we ignore all advice given by those around us, cast ourselves down, and work for a future life, whether that be a better next life, or a place in Eternity.\nIf we choose the former, that is a life of Pride, we are guaranteed nothing, but the possibility of a successful life in the eyes of ourselves and others. Happiness is not part of that guarantee, nor is contentment. In fact, since the lives of those who achieve any degree of success on the road to pride is open by the media for all to view, it seems quite apparent that the road is froth with personal failure and misery.\nOn the other hand, by all appearances, the Humble road is lonesome and miserable, a sad account of a misspent life.\nBut talk to those who live the humble life; the Mother Teresa's, the Peace Corp volunteers, the Missionaries in poverty-stricken areas. Read about the lives of the Apostles, the early Christian leaders, and religious leaders in other Faiths. Ask the vagabond on the road who travels from place to place with all his possessions on his back if he's happy, if he would trade places with the rich and successful. Many will tell you that they have already been there, and won't go back. Now I'm not referring to those on Skid Row, or holding cardboard signs on street corners, but the travelers. Although, even those with the signs are less likely to give up that life if given the choice. It's very often the life they have chosen for one reason or another.\nDecisions, decisions. Life is full of little decisions, but there is none so small, yet so large as this one. It is small if we go with the flow and do what everyone tells us to do, but it's among the largest if we decide to choose what the Ancients tell us to do, that is, ignore this life and strive for the next.",

        "raw_content": "Snakes Unwrapped\nBy Hunter Bennett\nThe article below is an online-only sidebar to \u201cSNAKE WRAP: The Definitive (and, Thus Far, Only) Account of Washington, DC\u2019s Funniest HarDCore Band,\u201d which appears in Ugly Things #47. The introduction to \u201cSNAKE WRAP\u201d reads:\nLike John Cheever\u2019s idea of a punk band, the Snakes were a pair of whip-smart, clean cut, well-heeled teenagers who amused themselves by writing snarky songs about summering in the Greek Isles, lusting after Russian royalty, and, most of all, the quirks and foibles of those around them. But they were also the quintessential Washington, D.C. punk insiders. Championed by Henry Rollins, produced by Ian MacKaye, and closely affiliated with Rites of Spring, the Snakes released a charmingly ragged Lp of silly, melodic punk tunes on the venerable Dischord Records \u2014 smack dab in the midst of that label\u2019s remarkable 1980s run of harDCore punk classics, including Minor Threat, Dag Nasty, and Fugazi. The Snakes\u2019 story spans nearly 50 years and is inextricably entwined with the histories of both harDCore and Dischord. It also offers a glimpse into the world of Washington WASPs.\nIf you think the sidebar is entertaining, you should buy the magazine and read the article.\nhttp://webstore.ugly-things.com/ugly-things-47-p399.php\nWe asked the Snakes (i.e., Michael Hampton and Simon Jacobsen) to tell us what their songs were about. They did the best they could:\nI WON\u2019T LOVE YOU \u2018TIL YOU\u2019RE MORE LIKE ME LP\nShe\u2019s Got It Now \u2013 An uncharacteristically earnest rocker with an infectious four-note riff.\nMICHAEL: Not sure. It\u2019s a pretty early song. Definitely a Simon riff. I think that\u2019s a Simon song.\nSIMON: I wrote that when I was a sophomore in high school. I had a very bad prom date that stood me up. The thing that makes that song is that little riff. Ian [MacKaye] picked up on it, too. He said \u201cThis song is nothing without that thing.\u201d And so he just kept having me play it [throughout the song].\nhttps://snakes.bandcamp.com/track/shes-got-it-now\nI Won\u2019t Love You \u2018Til You\u2019re More Like Me \u2013 A narcissist\u2019s kiss-off to his significant other featuring the immortal line \u201cYou say, \u2018I love you.\u2019 I say, \u2018I do, too.\u2019\u201d\nMICHAEL: That\u2019s self-explanatory. [Laughs].\nSIMON: That [line] cracked us up. We didn\u2019t drink. We didn\u2019t smoke. We didn\u2019t do anything cool. We just sat on the edge of the bed and in a chair and played these very loud, amplified instruments and we would just laugh and laugh and laugh.\nhttps://snakes.bandcamp.com/track/i-wont-love-you-til-youre-more-like-me\nTed Newman Jones III: The Legend & Legacy of a Crazed Cowboy Guitar Genius\nby admin 3rd Nov 2017 Comments [0]\nBy Greg Prevost\nTed Newman Jones is an unsung hero to anyone who is a fan of the Rolling Stones or for that matter, to anyone who plays a guitar. When I started writing Rolling Stones Gear in the early 2000s, he was on my list of key personnel to track down and interview. Unfortunately, over the course of the near nine years it took to write the book, I was never able to locate him. What was written concerning him and his work was accurate in that it was based upon fact, but the final word from the man was not present or available at the time of press.\nTo my surprise, a few months ago I connected with Jones\u2019 assistant Jeff Smith, who merged talents with Ted in in order to keep the production of Newman Guitars alive and well, now and into the future. In turn, I put in a request to do an interview with Ted, but was saddened by the news that he was terminally ill. Ever the trooper, he did however, grant an interview through special arrangement with Jeff. What is to follow is more or less the story of not only Ted Newman Jones III, but Newman Guitars as well. For those of you who have Rolling Stones Gear, use the information here as an addition, and note that what was not apparent to me at the time the book was written is the fact that Ted\u2019s guitars were not just random creations that improved over the years, but a methodical sequence that ultimately led up to a definitive end product. This article is dedicated to Ted, who at the age of 67, passed on July 1, 2016, within weeks after the interview was conducted.\nGuitar luthier Ted Newman Jones III was born on October 8, 1949 in Dyersburg, Tennessee. Like most guys who were born between the late \u201840s and the late \u201850s, he was hung up on music and became somewhat obsessed with the Stones upon their arrival in 1964. In his late teens, though he took an interest in playing the guitar, he came to realize he had more of a talent for fixing them than playing them. He came onto the scene in 1970 when he refurbished and reconstructed a number of guitars for Eric Clapton including Clapton\u2019s famous \u2018Blackie\u2019 Stratocaster. He would however, not be introduced to the music world until 1971 when he became associated with Keith Richards. It\u2019s been said that Clapton referred Jones to Richards, but technically, what really placed him in the middle of the Exile On Main Street sessions at Villa Nellc\u00f4te in the summer of \u201971 was the attitude of a free spirit with a strong work ethic and sheer determination.\nOnce referred to as \u201cKeith\u2019s Right Hand Man,\u201d he would serve as both a guitar tech and guitar builder for Keith throughout the \u201870s and into the early \u201880s. As a result of his position with the Stones back in the early \u201870s, many articles were written about him at the time, one in which he was described as \u201can 18-year-old crazed Arkansas cowboy guitar genius luthier\u2026\u201d In response to this description, Jones related, \u201cNo, I was a 22 year old West Tennessee guitar\u2014I wouldn\u2019t say \u2018genius,\u2019 the appropriate word would be, uhhh\u2014let\u2019s just say everything I touched just came out that way. I wasn\u2019t a genius, but what I did was all unique.\u201d\nAlthough he officially started working with Keith (and the Stones) in 1971, his first encounter with him was actually two years earlier. \u201cMy initial meeting with Keith was in 1969 at a Stones concert in Georgia where the wings on their DC3 iced over and their plane came in late then finally landed. The show went on late. I met him backstage with Stanley Booth. I lit his cigarette, and he introduced me to BB King and Chuck Berry\u2014so that was a triple threat right there! I remember that Keith was real nice.\u201d As for his connection with Stanley Booth, he revealed to David Dalton in 1981, \u201cWhile going to college, I\u2019d read an article in Eye magazine on the Stones written by someone called Stanley Booth. Later on, I ended up in Memphis, selling clothes, and cashed a check for a man who turned out to be Stanley Booth. Told him I thought his article was great, etc. This eventually led to my meeting the Stones in \u201969 on tour and spurred me to ultimately go to Europe in \u201871.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Ahed #Tamimi was sexually harassed by israeli interrogator, says lawyer\nAhed Tamimi was sexually harassed by Israeli interrogator, says lawyer\nIsraeli lawyer Gaby Lasky speaks with Ahed Tamimi, her client, in the military court at Ofer prison, 1 January (AFP)\nThe lawyer of imprisoned Ahed al-Tamimi has accused an Israeli interrogator of sexually harassing the 17-year-old Palestinian girl, who was arrested last December from her village in the occupied West Bank for slapping an Israeli soldier on camera.\nGaby Lasky filed a complaint with the Israeli general attorney on Monday, saying that one of the interrogators had questioned Tamimi in an inappropriate manner, especially given her status as a female minor, and included remarks about her looks.\nLasky described the behaviour of the interrogator, who is an officer in the military intelligence unit Aman, as a \u201cgross violation of the law\u201d amounting to sexual harassment.\nThis proves that the [Israeli] law enforcement system infringes upon the rights of Palestinian minors\n\u2013 Gaby Lasky, Ahed al-Tamimi\u2019s lawyer\nLasky complained twice to the attorney general, but no investigation was opened into the interrogator\u2019s behaviour by Israeli military intelligence at the time.\nAn Israeli army spokesman told Hebrew news site Ynet on Wednesday that it had opened an investigation into the matter.\nLasky has denounced the fact that, in spite of her age, Tamimi was interrogated simultaneously by two men without the presence of a female officer in the room or an interrogator specialised in questioning minors.\nWhile Israeli forces are mandated to have a female officer during the interrogation of women, former Palestinian prisoners have told Middle East Eye that women officers were not always present, and in fact often served as cover for verbal and physical abuse taking place during interrogations.\nTamimi was 16 when she was arrested for slapping an Israeli soldier who would not leave her family\u2019s property in her hometown of Nabi Saleh, on the same day as Israeli forces shot her 15-year-old cousin Mohammed Tamimi in the head with a rubber-coated steel bullet.\nLasky added that the interrogator in question threatened to arrest Tamimi\u2019s relatives and interrogate them too, if she continued to remain silent during questioning.\n\u201cThis proves that the [Israeli] law enforcement system infringes upon the rights of Palestinian minors,\u201d the complaint concluded.\nInterrogation footage leaked\nVideo footage of Tamimi\u2019s interrogation was leaked on Sunday to the Daily Beast, reportedly showing the teenager enduring two hours of questioning on 26 December.\nAccording to the Daily Beast, the then 16-year-old asserted her right to remain silent as two male interrogators attempted a range of tactics to get her to talk.\n\u201cYou have eyes like an angel,\u201d one interrogator told Tamimi in Arabic and he made \u201ccreepy attempts at flirting\u201d as well as threats against her family.\nThe video was of her third interrogation and she appears handcuffed and sitting at a desk in a police office, according to the Daily Beast.\nPalestinian women haunted by abuse in Israeli jails\nTamimi is currently serving an eight-month sentence in Ofer military prison after reaching a plea deal with Israeli prosecutors in March.\nTamimi told reporters last month before the court accepted the plea bargain agreement that \u201cthere is no justice under occupation and this is an illegitimate court\u201d.\nShe will serve only two months less in prison than Elor Azaria, the Israeli soldier who shot and killed a disarmed and incapacitated Palestinian attacker in Hebron as he lay motionless on the ground.\nTamimi\u2019s arrest in December came after a video went viral on Israeli social media, showing her slapping, kicking and hitting two armed Israeli soldiers.\nTamimi\u2019s mother, Nariman, was also detained and sentenced to eight months in prison for filming and sharing the aforementioned video.\nHer trial gained international media coverage and human right groups, including Amnesty International, have campaigned for her to be released.\nLabels: Intifada, Jewish Crimes, Nazi Israel, Netanyahu, Occupation Terrorism, Occupied W Bank, Palestine, Prisoners of Zion, Talmud At Work",

        "title": "This New Tool Can Help Parents Find the Best Sport for Their Kids \u2013 News U.S.A",
        "raw_content": "Kids these days: they have so many options when it comes to sports. There are organized travel teams, it seems, for every game: soccer, lacrosse, hoops, the works. While a child\u2019s decision about which sport to play might not be as formative as, say, picking a college, it can sure feel that way. And potentially cost as much: fees and travel expenses for some club teams skyrocket to $10,000 per year and beyond.\nIn trying to navigate today\u2019s youth sports scene, any guidance helps. That\u2019s why a new tool released Thursday by the Aspen Institute\u2019s Sports Society Program, called the Healthy Sport Index, couldn\u2019t be more timely. The handy website allows families to weigh three factors in deciding what sport makes the most sense: safety, physical activity, and the sport\u2019s psychosocial benefits. The index then provides a customized ranking of ten sports, based on where a child lands on a sliding scale of \u201clow emphasis\u201d to \u201chigh emphasis\u201d for each of the three factors.\nSo say, for example, your son wants to put maximum emphasis on psychosocial benefits: he wants a sport that will help him develop social skills, cognitive skills, and otherwise enhance his mental health. He cares about a sport\u2019s safety, but is willing to take some injury risk; so here, he falls in the middle of the scale. But he\u2019s ambivalent about physical activity: your son doesn\u2019t care how much energy he expends in practice. He gives it the lowest possible emphasis on the Heathy Sport Index scale. Based on this mix, the Healthy Sport Index puts swimming on top, while lacrosse comes in tenth.\nMeanwhile, your daredevil daughter can care less about getting hurt, but places the highest possible emphasis on working out hard while playing her sport and developing useful life skills, like setting goals. Healthy Sport Index says: sign her up for tennis! (Cheerleading falls to the bottom here. The ten girls\u2019 sports ranked by the Healthy Sport Index are basketball, cheerleading, cross country, lacrosse, soccer, softball, swimming, tennis, track and field, and volleyball. For the boys it\u2019s baseball, basketball, cross country, football, lacrosse, soccer, swimming, tennis, track and field, and wrestling.)\nThe Aspen Institute, in consultation with medical experts, compiled data for the index from a variety of sources. The National High School Sports-Related Injury Surveillance Study, produced by the Colorado School of Public Health, provided injury rates for various sports. For the psychosocial component, the Aspen Institute surveyed almost 1,300 high school athletes from across the country, and asked students whether their sport helped them improve in areas like sharing responsibility and patience. Researchers from North Carolina State University observed almost 700 hours of varsity practices to document the physical activity levels of each high school sport. The architects of the index were keen to account for the positive benefits of different sports, to counterbalance the downside risks.\n\u201cWe talk a lot about injuries in youth sports, for good reason,\u201d says Dr. Neeru Jayanthi, director of sports medicine research at Emory University. \u201cBut it\u2019s important to look at all aspects of the athletic experience. If you just focus on one, you\u2019re missing the boat.\u201d\nFor example, football, which has witnessed participation declines due to well-founded worries about head injuries, ranks second among boys\u2019 sports for psychosocial benefits. (Soccer comes in first.) High school football players reported more improvements in social skills and cognitive skills than athletes in any of the nine other sports. The Aspen Institute\u2019s research was less encouraging for, say, boy\u2019s lacrosse, which ranked ninth in safety, ahead of just football, and tenth in psychosocial benefits. Lacrosse players were most likely to cut class, binge drink, use marijuana and smoke cigarettes. In girls\u2019 sports, basketball provided the most psychosocial upside, whereas cheerleading ranked tenth on both the psychosocial and physical activity scales.\nNot that cheerleading or lacrosse or any other sport are at all detrimental, say the creators of the Healthy Sport Index. Every activity can have a positive impact on a kid\u2019s life. \u201cIt\u2019s better to be playing a sport,\u201d says Jon Solomon, editorial director for the Aspen\u2019s Sports Society Program, \u201cthan to be sitting on the couch all day doing nothing.\u201d\nCollege football schedule, games 2018: What to watch in Week 7, TV channels, kickoff times",

        "title": "UWC Fees Must Fall responses: Memorandum of Demands of landscaping, cleaning and other outsourced workers from UWC",
        "raw_content": "Memorandum of Demands of landscaping, cleaning and other outsourced workers from UWC\nMemorandum of Demands\nTO: Vice-chancellor and Rector;\nCC: UWC Management; UWC Council\nDear Prof. Pretorius\nWe, the landscaping, cleaning, and other outsourced workers from the University\nof the Western Cape resolved to remind you of our demands as follows:\n1) We demand an immediate end to the outsourcing of jobs in all the above -\nmentioned categories of employment. This demand should lead to the\ntermination of all contracts with service providers with immediate effect, so that\nUWC directly employs all the outsourced workers on a permanent or full-time\n2) We demand an immediate implementation of the minimum wage of R10\n000 across the board. Our wages have remained stagnant, if not falling in the\npast 15 years of outsourcing. Our families are starving, whilst the\nprincipals/rectors and other university authorities, and \u2018tenderpreneurs\u2019\n(contracted by UWC) gain from our hard work, and have become alarmingly\nwealthy as a result, yet our lives remain the same.\nThe university allowance of R2000 is insufficient, even if it is combined with a\nmonthly wage of R2700, for a decent living, especially for the workers with the\ngreatest number of beneficiaries. Furthermore, the UWC allowance (R2000)\ndiscriminates against casual workers who don\u2019t receive this R2000 monthly\n3) Moratorium on retrenchments of all workers employed in contracts and/or\nimmediate reinstatement of all the workers recently retrenched through\ntermination of contracts with service providers.\nWe therefore declare that nothing about us without us shall henceforth be valid\nand morally binding on us. In pursuit of this declaration, we resolved to constitute\nourselves into #EndOutsourcing & #UWCFeesWillFall campaign, with elected\nand accountable representatives from each and every company that provide\nservices for UWC through which we shall negotiate and without which no\nagreement binding shall be concluded.\nWe also convey our unwavering support to all the demands of the #FeesMustFall\nMovement for free, quality education and decent learning conditions in all the\ninstitutions and pledge solidarity for all their future actions in pursuit of these and\nother legitimate demands for people\u2019s education.\nWe appeal for solidarity and active support from all the students, administrative\nand academic staff of the university to our demands, struggle and any action we\nmay be forced to take in pursuit of the above demands.\nPlease kindly note that should you fail to comply with our demands, consider\nyourself duly notified of our intention to strike with effect from the 10TH February\n2016 and campaign to appeal for public support to our struggle for decent jobs\nand wages.\nKindly note that should UWC Management/or UWC Council wish to meet with us,\nkindly advise us of such intensions in writing by no later than Wednesday, 10th\n#ENDoutsourcing Campaign\n#UWCFeesWillFall\nuwcshutdown@gmail.com\n[signatures edited]\nACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF RECEIPT BY:\nRECTOR & VICE CHANCELLOR\nSIGNATURE:\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026.. DATE: 08 FEBRUARY 2016\nPeter van Heusden 11 February 2016 at 12:55\nFrom the UWC Fees Will Fall page: https://www.facebook.com/UWC-Fees-WILL-Fall-985851094771502/\nThe response from UWC management regarding the end of outsourcing was disappointing and reads as follows:\n1. \"True to our mission, the University remains sensitive to the plight of the marginalized and to provide affordable access to poor students, while we are also cognizant of the challenges workers face. To balance this dual tension will require serious investigation. The Council of the University has formed a task team who will be engaging stakeholders involved in outsourcing/insourcing at the University\".\n2. \"We have made a commitment to augment the existing salaries of certain workers by R2000.00 per month and at the moment this is as much as we can contribute. This amounts to an increase of over 70% per designated worker and is a demonstration of our good faith. In addition the study rebate received by University employees has been granted to these employees as well. This includes the workers of Pegasus Consulting Sevices who only commenced their contractual services at the University in October 2015. As you are certainly aware, there has been no fee increment at Universities in 2016 and all expenses of the University must be evaluated within the context of sustainability\".\nLet us analyse the above 2 points in turn. Regarding the first point, UWC management is simply repeating its earlier stance (i.e. the November 2015 stance) that it will conduct a feasibility study to determine the feasibility of in-sourcing. We know very well that such a decision (to conduct a feasibility study) was already made in November 2015, and was overturned by UWC Council later in the same month - UWC Council simply said \"the University supports insourcing in principle and considered it unaffordable\".\nSo, today's argument that insourcing requires a feasibility study does not hold water, because UWC Council declared that it is not willing to insource in Nov 2015. The University should take a decision to insource, and not duck and dive around the issue.\nRegarding the second point, the University is saying that it has contributed a R2000 monthly allowance to cleaning staff, and security guards, but says NOTHING about the fact that such an allowance does not accrue to CASUAL WORKERS , who have been working at UWC for up to 3 years. Again the University appears to be DUCKING AND DIVING, and not committed to the end of outsourcing. Furthermore, UWC boasts about study rebates for the children of cleaning staff, yet there is no designated personnel or office to make sure that the children of cleaning and security staff have access to study for free at UWC!\nNOW let us consider some of the political dynamics that will help us come to terms about the REAL POLITICAL REASONS behind the University\u2019s apathy towards in-sourcing: there are solid rumours that some UWC personnel, in the upper echelons of UWC are benefiting from the tender system used to contract outsourced companies.\nIt is alleged that some of the owners of the companies have \"undeclared relationships\" (conflict of interest) with some UWC personnel in the upper echelons of UWC; and our sources tell us that such personnel are not willing to give up their fortunes just like that and make way for insourcing. Of course, these are only rumours, but they do shed light into the political dynamics at play in the upper echelons of UWC, and perhaps can go a long way into the conduction of an objective audit of UWC finances, and thorough investigation of the University finance team to determine if these rumors hold water or not.\nMemorandum of Demands of landscaping, cleaning and...",

I grew up watching Are You Being Served? on my local PBS station, so having a whole channel of British television shows was brilliant in my book. In the past, I've especially loved Cash in the Attic, Changing Rooms, What Not to Wear, and the dearly departed Ground Force.\nBut now I've started having a great appreciation for the dramas on your station. This is thanks primarily to Life on Mars, which is just a fantastic show, and I can't wait to find out what's really happened to Sam Tyler--I'm hoping to catch some new clues during the marathon of the first four episodes on Sunday. The commercials for Murder City, which premieres tomorrow night, look really good. And I've admired the chutzpah of retelling Shakespeare, as you've done with Shakespea-Retold. Even the New York Times agrees with me on that one.\nSo, in conclusion, keep up the good work. You've now become one of my desert-island channels. I hope libraries jump on this bandwagon and make sure to get DVDs of British television shows. My local library has done this, because one of the many DVD sets it has is all four seasons of my new addiction, Coupling. In fact, I'm off to browse the BBC America shop now.\nTechnorati tags: British television, BBC America\nI adore Life On Mars. Wonderful, awesome show!\nThanks for the heads up about ShakespeaRe-Told. I hadn't noticed it -- not enough to watch it. But, thanks to you last night caught The Taming of The Shrew.",

        "raw_content": "Land for Development and Homes Property Rights Do Matter : Subsidized Sale Flats \u2013 Hong Kong versus Singapore\nChief Executive Carrie Lam Cheng Yuet-ngor has made homeownership, particularly subsidized public homeownership, the centerpiece of her government\u2019s public housing policy. This is very wise. She has carried it forward by proposing a Starter Homes Scheme, regularizing the Green Form Subsidized Home Ownership Pilot Scheme (GSH), and increasing the discount on Homeownership Scheme (HOS) sale flats from the present 30 per cent to 48 per cent off the market prices of private housing flats.\nThere was no mention of reviving the Tenant Purchase Scheme (TPS) to sell public rental housing flats, despite calls from some quarters. Still, many pundits surmise that her policies represent a significant shift towards Singapore\u2019s Housing Development Board (HDB) model.\nHDB flats are sold at a discount to permanent residents, which are adjusted for affordability as economic conditions change. After a period of restriction during which the flat cannot be sold, the owner can sell the flat on the open market at a market price to any permanent resident who does not own a flat. Leasing out the flat is also permitted. Any appreciation in value accrues entirely to the owner.\nIn Singapore, the owner of an HDB flat buys, at a discount, 100 per cent of the user right, leasing right and transfer right to the flat.\nIn Hong Kong, by contrast, the buyers of HOS, TPS and GSH flats effectively receive only the user right to their flat.\nAt the time of purchase, the eligible buyer receives a 30 per cent discount, which is based on the market valuation of a privately owned flat. After a period of restriction, the owner can sell the subsidized flat in the future on the open market, but must pay back the unpaid 30 per cent discounted premium to the government.\nThe value of this discount is calculated at the time of sale, not the time of original purchase. So if the flat has appreciated in value, the unpaid premium will increase.\nThe owner also does not possess any leasing rights until the 30 per cent transfer value is paid up.\nThis arrangement is an inefficient use of public housing resources because the owner has no reason to move, even when it might be in the family\u2019s interest to do so, when she gets 100 per cent of the use value but only 70 per cent of the transfer value of the flat. This also reduces the geographic mobility of the population and imposes many other costs on society and the economy.\nThe Singapore HDB scheme does not have these inefficiencies, but there is one right that the Singapore government has retained: HDB owners cannot redevelop their estates into private estates. When the structure becomes old, they can only allow the government to redevelop it into new HDB flats. In this way, these estates will never become foreign-owned.\nNeither Hong Kong\u2019s nor Singapore\u2019s approaches are perfect. But while Singapore could conceivably justify its limitation on nation building grounds, what justification does Hong Kong have?\nAmazingly, Hong Kong\u2019s restrictions were introduced only in 1982 after Phase IIIA of the HOS flats \u2013 around the time the Volcker Fed increased interest rates in a bid to curb inflation. Hong Kong property prices dropped sharply in 1982, by 24.5 per cent after adjusting for inflation. Presumably the government was worried about selling the flats at deflated prices and at a discount.\nWhat a terrible mistake this was and what a huge price the Hong Kong public has had to pay ever since.\nProperty prices have since soared and housing is no longer affordable for most. Increasing the market discount from 30 per cent to 48 per cent is fine, but what if the transfer value that has to be shared with government increases to 48 per cent at the time of future sale? It would further deaden the incentive to become geographically mobile.\nIf the Hong Kong government were to someday to follow Singapore\u2019s model, we would need to create a better regime. Instead of the share tenancy arrangement, the government could adopt a fixed payment for the unpaid discount so that transfer and leasing rights would not have to be locked up. Actually, this reform is surprisingly easy to do.\nIf a genuine 30 percent discount were offered, then the remaining unpaid value would only be 18 per cent since the sale price was set at 52 per cent of market value. This 18 per cent could take the form of a deferred loan from government to be repaid when the property is transferred. This deferred loan would have a fixed value and could even accrue interest.\nSuch an arrangement would not be a sharing of the future transfer value. It would avoid all the disincentive effects and inefficiencies and even inequities of the present mutant public housing scheme.\nHow property rights are defined over public sales flats will have profound effects on the economy and society, and ultimately politics. The wrong path could cost us 1-2 per cent of GDP and further worsen inclusiveness in our society.",

        "raw_content": "Previous (Odysseas Elytis)\nNext (Oedipus)\nHead of Odysseus from a Greek second century B.C.E. marble group representing Odysseus blinding Polyphemus, found at the villa of Tiberius at Sperlonga\nOdysseus or Ulysses (Greek \u1f48\u03b4\u03c5\u03c3\u03c3\u03b5\u03cd\u03c2 Odysseus; Latin: Ulixes), was the mythical Greek king of Ithaca and the main hero in Homer's epic poem, the Odyssey. Odysseus also plays a key role in Homer's Iliad. King of Ithaca, husband of Penelope, father of Telemachus, and son of La\u00ebrtes and Anticlea, Odysseus is renowned for his guile and resourcefulness (known by the epithet Odysseus the Cunning, and said to be third to only Zeus and Athena in wisdom; and is most famous for the ten eventful years it took him to return home after the Trojan War.\nRelatively little is known of Odysseus' background except that his paternal grandfather (or step-grandfather) is Arcesius, son of Cephalus and grandson of Aeolus, while his maternal grandfather is Autolycus, son of Hermes and Chione. According to some late sources, most of them purely genealogical, Odysseus had many children, including, with Penelope, Telemachus and Poliporthes (born after Odysseus' return from Troy). With Circe, he fathered Telegonus, Ardeas, and Latinus. With Calypso, there was Nausinous and with Callidice, came Polypoetes.\nMost such genealogies aim to link Odysseus with the foundation of many Italic cities of remote antiquity. Ithaca, an island along the Ionian coastline of Greece, is one of several islands that would have comprised the realm of Odysseus' family, but the true extent of the Cephallenian realm and the actual identities of the islands named in Homer's works are unknown.\n2 Homer's story of Odysseus\n2.1 Helen of Troy\n2.2 The Trojan War\n2.3 Back to Ithaca\n2.3.1 Land of the Cyclops\n2.4 A troubled crew\n2.4.1 The island of Circe\n2.4.2 The Sirens\n2.4.3 Scylla and Charybdis\n2.4.4 Calypso\n2.5 Home to Penelope\n3 Odysseus outside of Homer\n3.1 Classical writings\n3.2 Middle Ages and Renaissance Literature\nOdysseus' legendary travels and adventures are among the best known in world literature. They have been told and retold by the great Greek and Roman writers, Medieval and Renaissance poets of the caliber of Dante and Shakespeare, and modern writers such as James Joyce and Nikos Kazantzakis.\nThe name has several variants: Olysseus (\u1f48\u03bb\u03c5\u03c3\u03c3\u03b5\u03cd\u03c2), Oulixeus (\u039f\u1f50\u03bb\u03b9\u03be\u03b5\u03cd\u03c2), Oulixes (\u039f\u1f50\u03bb\u03af\u03be\u03b7\u03c2)[1] and he was known as Ulysses in Latin or Ulixes in Roman mythology.\nThe verb odussomai (\u1f40\u03b4\u03cd\u03c3\u03c3\u03bf\u03bc\u03b1\u03b9), meaning \"Hate,\"[2] suggests that the name could be rendered as \"the one who is wrathful/hated.\" This interpretation is reinforced by Odysseus' and Poseidon's mutual wrath for one another. One may also read the name as \"pain,\" or \"the one inflicting/suffering pain.\"\nOdysseus sometimes receives the epithet Laertiades (Greek: \u039b\u03b1\u03b5\u03c1\u03c4\u03b9\u03ac\u03b4\u03b7\u03c2), son of La\u00ebrtes.\nIn the Odyssey, Book XIX (405-411) we learn that Odysseus' name means \"son of pain\" (alternative interpretations/translations are \"child of anger\" or \"man of suffering\") and his father named him that because his grandfather Autolycus suggested it.\nHomer's story of Odysseus\nHelen and Paris, by Jacques-Louis David, 1788\nAccording to Homer, Odysseus is one of many powerful and influential suitors for Tyndareus' daughter Helen, considered the most beautiful woman in the world. Tyndareus fears the wrath of whomever he does not choose as Helen's husband. Odysseus promises to solve this dilemma in return for Tyndareus' support for Odysseus' suit for Penelope, daughter of Icarius, and second cousin to Helen. Odysseus proposes that Tyndareus require all the suitors to swear an oath to defend whomever Helen chooses as husband from among the oath-takers. The suitors, including Odysseus, swear, and Helen chooses Menelaus.\nWhen Helen is abducted by Paris of Troy, Menelaus calls upon the other suitors to honor their oaths and help him retrieve her, thus bringing about the Trojan War. Odysseus\u2014who had been away from home a long time\u2014tries to avoid the war by feigning madness, but Palamedes exposes the ruse. In a last ditch attempt to avert war, Odysseus accompanies Menelaus and Palamedes to Troy in an effort to negotiate Helen's peaceful return. Menelaus makes unpersuasive emotional arguments, but Odysseus' arguments very nearly persuade the Trojan court to hand Helen over.\nOdysseus serves also as one of the most influential Greek champions during the Trojan War. Along with Nestor and Idomeneus he is one of the most trusted advisers and counselors. He champions the Achaean cause and is unwavering when the king is in question.\nThe Trojan Horse, a device of Odysseus\nAfter many of the heroes have left the battlefield due to injuries Odysseus persuades Agamemnon not to withdraw. Along with two other envoys he is chosen to try to persuade the hero Achilles to return to combat, but does not succeed.\nWhen Achilles is slain in battle, it is Odysseus and Telamonian Ajax who successfully retrieve the fallen warrior's body and armor in the thick of heavy fighting. During the funeral games for Achilles, Odysseus competes with Ajax to win Achilles' weapons and armor. The Greeks fear to decide a winner, for they do not want one of the heroes feeling insulted or abandoning the war effort. Nestor suggests that they allow the captive Trojans to decide the winner. Odysseus is declared the winner and the humiliated Ajax kills himself.\nIt is the clever Odysseus who then devised the famous stratagem of the Trojan Horse. Built by Epeius and filled with Greek warriors led by Odysseus it will prove the final stroke in the nine-year Trojan War.\nBack to Ithaca\nThe Odyssey contains the epic and mythic story of Odysseus' ten-year voyage to reach Ithaca. After Odysseus and his men depart from Troy, their ships near land. Eurylochus convinces Odysseus to go ashore and loot the nearby city. The city is not at all protected, and all of the inhabitants flee without a fight into the nearby mountains. Odysseus and his men loot the city, and Odysseus wisely orders the men to board the ships quickly. They refuse, eat dinner, and fall asleep on the beach. The next morning, the Ciconians, allies of Troy and great warriors, return with their fierce kinsmen from the mountains. Odysseus and his men flee to the ships as fast as they can, but many men are left behind: \"six benches were left empty in every ship\" (The Odyssey, Book IX, line 64).\nOdysseus and his men then land upon the island of the Lotus-Eaters. Odysseus sends out a small scouting party who eat the lotus with the natives. This causes them to fall asleep, awakening somewhat later, euphoric and intoxicated. Odysseus pursues the scouting party, drags them back to their ships against their will where they set sail again; the drugged men are tied to the benches to prevent them from swimming back to the island.\nThe Cyclops, a 1914 painting by Odilon Redon.\nLater, a scouting party led by Odysseus and his friend Misenus, lands in the territory of the Cyclops, venturing upon a large cave. They proceed to feast on the livestock they find there. Unknown to them, the cave is the dwelling of Polyphemus, a giant Cyclops who soon returns. Polyphemus refuses hospitality to his uninvited guests and traps them in his cave, blocking the entrance with a boulder immovable by mortal men. He then proceeds to eat a pair of the men each day. Odysseus devises a cunning plan for escape.\nTo make Polyphemus unwary, Odysseus gives him a bowl of strong, unwatered wine that was given to them by Maron, the priest of Apollo. When Polyphemus asks for his name, Odysseus tells him that it is \u039f\u1f54\u03c4\u03b9\u03c2 (Outis, \"Nobody,\" which is also a short form of his own name). In appreciation for the wine, Polyphemus offers to return the favor by eating him last. Once the giant falls asleep, Odysseus and his men use a pine tree\u2014which they have fashioned into a giant spear\u2014to blind Polyphemus. Hearing Polyphemus' cries, other Cyclops come to his cave, instinctively. Polyphemus replies \"\u039f\u1f56\u03c4\u03af\u03c2 \u03bc\u03b5 \u03ba\u03c4\u03b5\u03af\u03bd\u03b5\u03b9 \u03b4\u03cc\u03bb\u1ff3 \u03bf\u1f50\u03b4\u1f72 \u03b2\u03af\u03b7\u03c6\u03b9\u03bd.\" (\"Nobody is killing me either by treachery or brute violence!\") The other Cyclops leave him alone, thinking that his outbursts must be madness or the gods' doing.\nIn the morning, Polyphemus rolls back the boulder to let the sheep out to graze. Polyphemus cannot see the men, but he feels the tops of his sheep to make sure that the men are not riding them, and spreads his arm at the entrance of the cave. Odysseus and his men escape, having tied themselves to the undersides of the sheep. Once Odysseus and his men are out, they load the sheep on board their ships and set sail.\nAs Odysseus and his men are sailing away, he reveals his true identity to Polyphemus. Enraged, Polyphemus tries to hit the ship with boulders, but because he is blind, he misses. When the ship appears to be getting away at last, Polyphemus raises his arms to his father, Poseidon, god of the sea. He asks him not to allow Odysseus to get back home to Ithaca, adding that if Odysseus does arrive home, he should do so alone, his crew either dead or aboard a stranger's ship.\nA troubled crew\nPoseidon, the main adversary of Odysseus\nOdysseus next stops at Aeolia, home of Aeolus, the favored mortal who received from the gods the power of controlling the winds. Aeolus gives Odysseus and his crew hospitality for a month. Aeolus also provides a bag filled with all the winds except for the one that will lead him home. Odysseus' crew members suspect that there is treasure in the bag, and two of the men decide to open it as soon as Odysseus falls asleep\u2014just before their home is reached. Subsequently, they are blown away by a violent storm back to Aeolia by Poseidon, where Aeolus refuses to provide any more help, fearing that Odysseus is cursed by the gods. Once again, Odysseus has to start his journey from Aeolia to Ithaca.\nArriving at Telepylos, the stronghold of the Laestrygonians. When they arrive there they find a gigantic woman, the wife of an equally large Antiphates, king of the Laestrygonians, who promptly calls her husband. He immediately snatches up one of the men and starts to eat him. Two other men run away, but Antiphates raises such a commotion that they are pursued by thousands of Laestrygonians, all of whom are giants. They throw vast rocks from the cliffs, smashing the ships, and spear the men like fish. Odysseus makes his escape with his single ship not trapped in the harbor. The rest of his company is lost.\nThe island of Circe\nCirce offers her magic potion.\nThe forlorn Odysseus and his surviving crew venture next to the island of Circe. Upon their arrival, Odysseus sends a scouting party ahead of the rest of the group. Circe invites them to a feast. However, the food is laced with one of her magical potions to make them sleep, and she then proceeds to change all the men into pigs with a wave of her magical wand. Only Eurylochus, suspecting treachery from the outset, escapes by hiding. He warns Odysseus and the others who had stayed behind at the ships.\nOdysseus sets out to rescue his men, but is intercepted by Hermes who tells him to procure some of the herb molu first. When Circe's magic fails, somehow she falls in love with Odysseus. Her offer to share her bed with him, at first, goes unheeded. Odysseus declares that he will accept her offer only after she has turned his men back into their human form. Circe obliges, and they share her bed. Much later, after Odysseus and his men have gone, Circe bears him a son, Telegonus. It will be Telegonus who eventually brings about the death of Odysseus.\nOdysseus desires to talk with Tiresias, blind prophet of Thebes]], who is already dead, so he and his men journey to the River Acheron in Hades, where they perform sacrifices which allow them to speak to the dead. Tiresias tells him how to pass by Helios' cattle and the whirlpool Charybdis, as well as other secrets of survival. Tiresias prophesies that, after many trials, he will die an old man, \"full of years and peace of mind.\"\nOdysseus also meets Achilles, who tells Odysseus that he would rather be a slave on earth than the king of the dead. Odysseus also meets Agamemnon and his own mother. The soul of Ajax, still resentful of Odysseus over the matter of Achilles' armor, refuses to speak, despite Odysseus' pleas of regret.\nOdysseus tied to the mast\nCirce had warned Odysseus of the dangers of the The Sirens, singing creatures of the sea who pulled men to their death. She had advised him to avoid hearing the song, but that if he really felt he had to hear it, then he should be tied to the mast. His men should have their ears stopped with beeswax and be ordered not to heed his screams. Odysseus, moved by curiosity, twists these words and tells the men that Circe had told him that he alone had to listen to the song. However, he obeys her instructions and listens to the song while he is tied to the mast, agonizing with desire to join them.\nOdysseus faces Scylla.\nOdysseus now faces the famous twin horrors of Scylla and Charybdis. He had been told by Tiresias that he would have a choice of two paths home. One was the Wandering Rocks, where either all make it through or all die, and which had been passed only by Jason with the help of Zeus. Odysseus chooses the second path. On one side is a powerful whirlpool\u2014the mouth of huge she-monster\u2014called Charybdis, which will sink the ship. However, on the other side of the strait is a monster named Scylla, with six heads who will seize and eat six men.\nThe advice is to sail close to Scylla and to lose the six men but not to fight, lest he lose more men. However, Odysseus does not dare tell his crew of the terrible sacrifice, for fear of ending up in the whirlpool of Charybdis. Six men die, and Odysseus declares that the desperate cries of his wretched betrayed men as the worst thing he has ever known.\nFinally, Odysseus and his surviving crew approach the island of Thrinacia, sacred to Helios, where he keeps sacred cattle. Odysseus had been warned by Tiresias and Circe not to touch these cattle. He tells his men that they will not be landing on the island. The men threaten mutiny, however, and Odysseus unwisely gives in. Captain and crew are trapped by adverse winds on the island and begin to get hungry. Odysseus ventures inland to pray for help, but falls asleep. In his absence the mutinous Eurylochus incites the men to kill and eat the cattle. The guardians of the island, Helios' daughters Lampetia and Phaethusa, tell their father. Helios complains to Zeus, threatening to take the sun down to Hades if justice is not done. Zeus destroys the ship with a thunderbolt and all the men die except for Odysseus.\nCalypso and Odysseus\nOdysseus is then swept past both Scylla and Charybdis, washing up finally on Calypso's island. The nymph makes him her lover for seven years, not allowing him to leave, promising immortality if he stays. Odysseus, conflicted, remains strongly attracted to her by night, yet weeps for home and his family by day. On behalf of Athena, Zeus at last intervenes and sends Hermes to order Calypso to let Odysseus go. Odysseus leaves on a small raft furnished with provisions, only to be hit by a storm launched by his old enemy Poseidon. He washes up on the island of Scheria and is found by Nausicaa, daughter of King Alcinous and Queen Arete of the Phaeacians, who entertain him well and escort him to Ithaca. While upon Scheria, the bard sings a song of the Trojan war. As Odysseus was at Troy and longs to return to his home, he weeps at the song. Alcinous, realizing this, decides to press Odysseus for his true identity.\nIt is here that we get the long story of Odysseus' trip from Troy to Scheria. After the recital, the Phaecians offer Odysseus passage home, with all of the hoardings he had obtained on the way and the gifts the Phaecians themselves had bestowed upon him (showing xenia, the idea of guest friendship). King Alcinous provides one fast Ph\u00e6acian, ship that soon carries Odysseus home to Ithaca. However, Poseidon is furious and intends to cast a ring of mountains around Scheria so they can never sail again. Zeus, however, manages to persuade Poseidon not to do this. Instead, he turns the ship which carries Odysseus home to stone. Ever determined, on a makeshift raft, Odysseus sets sail for Ithaca once more.\nHome to Penelope\nIn Ithaca, Penelope is having difficulties. Her husband has been gone for 20 years, and she does not know for sure whether he is alive or dead. She is beset with numerous men who think that a (fairly) young widow and queen of a small but tidy kingdom is a great prize. They want her to declare Odysseus dead and to choose a new husband from among them. Meanwhile, these suitors hang around the palace, eat her food, drink her wine, and consort with several of her maidservants. Temporizing, she fends them off for years, utilizing stalling tactics that are gradually wearing thin. For quite some time, Penelope pretends to weave a burial shroud for La\u00ebrtes, Odysseus' father, who lies gravely ill, (Odysseus' mother, Anticlea, has already died of grief) claiming that she will choose one suitor when the job is finished. Every day she weaves a length of shroud, and every night she unweaves the same length of shroud. Finally, one day, a maid of hers betrays this secret to the suitors and they demand that she finally choose one of them to be her new husband.\nOdysseus arrives, at last, completely alone. Upon landing, he is disguised as an old man in rags by Athena. Odysseus is welcomed by his old swineherd, Eumaeus, who does not recognize him, but still treats him well. His faithful dog, Argos, is the first to recognize him. Aged and decrepit, the dog does its best to wag its tail, but Odysseus, not wanting to be found out, pays him no attention. The disconsolate dog dies. The first human to recognize him is his old wet nurse, Euryclea, who knows him well enough to see through the rags, recognizing him by an old scar on his leg received when hunting boar. His son, Telemachus, does not see through the disguise, but Odysseus reveals his identity to him.\nOdysseus and Penelope\nStill in his disguise, Odysseus approaches Penelope and tells her that he has met Odysseus who has said that whoever can string Odysseus' bow and shoot an arrow through 12 axe-heads in a row will be able to marry Penelope. Penelope then announces what Odysseus has said. The suitors each try to string the bow, but in vain. Odysseus then takes the bow, strings it, lines up 12 axe-heads, and shoots an arrow through all 12. Athena then takes off his disguise. With the help of Telemachus, Athena, and Eumaeus the swineherd, Odysseus kills all of the suitors and their servants except Med\u00f4n, the herald, who had served the suitors due only to coercion, and Phemius, a bard who had also been pressured by the suitors to entertain them.\nPenelope, still not quite sure that the stranger is indeed her husband, tests him. She orders her maid to make up Odysseus' bed and move it from their bedchamber into the main hall of the house. Odysseus is initially furious when he hears this because one of the bed posts is made from a living olive tree\u2014he himself had designed it this way and thus it could not be moved. He tells her this and since only Odysseus and Penelope know that for a fact, Penelope at last, embraces her husband, begging for forgiveness.\nLater, one of the suitors' fathers, Eupeithes, tries to overthrow Odysseus. La\u00ebrtes kills him, and Athena thereafter requires the suitors' families and Odysseus to make peace. This is where the story of the Odyssey ends.\nOdysseus outside of Homer\nOdysseus is one of the most recurrent characters in Western culture from classical to modern times.\nThe supposed last poem in the epic cycle is called the Telegony, and is thought to tell the story of Odysseus's last voyage, including his death at the hands of Telegonus, his son with Circe. However, the poem, like the others of the cycle, is \"lost\" in that no authentic version has been discovered.\nIn fifth century B.C.E. Athens, tales of the Trojan War were popular subjects for tragedies, and Odysseus figures centrally or indirectly in a number of the extant plays by Aeschylus, Sophocles, (Ajax, Philoctetes) and Euripides, (Hecuba, and Rhesus). He certainly figured in still more than have survived.\nAs Ulysses, he is mentioned regularly in Virgil's Aeneid. The poem's hero, Aeneas, rescues one of Ulysses' crew members who was left behind on the island of the Cyclops. He in turn offers a first-person account of some of the same events Homer relates, in which Ulysses appears directly. Virgil's Ulysses typifies his view of the Greeks: he is cunning but impious. Ultimately malicious and hedonistic and is constantly referred to as \"Cruel Odysseus.\"\nOvid retells parts of Ulysses' journeys, focusing on his romantic involvements with Circe and Calypso, and recasts him as, in Harold Bloom's phrase, \"one of the great wandering womanizers.\" Ovid also gives a detailed account of the contest between Ulysses and Ajax for the armor of Achilles.\nGreek legend tells of Ulysses as the founder of Lisbon, Portugal, calling it Ulisipo or Ulisseya, during his 20-year errand on the Mediterranean and Atlantic seas. Olisipo was Lisbon's name in the Roman Empire. Basing in this folk etymology, the belief that Ulysses founded Lisbon is recounted by Strabo based on Asclepiades of Myrleia's words, by Pomponius Mela, by Gaius Julius Solinus (third century C.E.), and finally by Cam\u00f5es in his epic poem Lusiads.\nMiddle Ages and Renaissance Literature\nDante, in Canto 26 of the Inferno section of his Divine Comedy, encounters Odysseus (\"Ulisse\") near the very bottom of Hell, as punishment for his schemes and conspiracies that won the Trojan War. In a famous passage, Dante has Odysseus relate a different version of his final voyage and death from the one foreshadowed by Homer. He tells how he set out with his men for one final journey of exploration to sail beyond the Pillars of Hercules and into the western sea to find what adventures awaited them. After traveling west and south for five months, they saw in the distance a great mountain rising from the sea (this is Purgatory, in Dante's cosmology), before a storm sank them. (Dante did not have access to the original Greek texts of the Homeric epics, so his knowledge of their subject matter was based only on information from later sources, chiefly Virgil's Aeneid but also Ovid; hence the discrepancy between Dante and Homer.)\nOdysseus also appears in Shakespeare's Troilus and Cressida, set during the Trojan War.\nAlfred, Lord Tennyson's Ulysses presents an aging king who has seen too much of the world to be happy sitting on a throne idling his days away. Leaving the task of civilizing his people to his son, he gathers together a band of old comrades \"to sail beyond the sunset.\"\nJames Joyce's novel Ulysses uses modern literary devices to narrate a single day in the life of a Dublin businessman named Leopold Bloom; which turns out to bear many elaborate parallels to Odysseus' 20 years of wandering.\nFrederick Rolfe's The Weird of the Wanderer has the hero Nicholas Crabbe (based on the author) traveling back in time, discovering that he is the reincarnation of Odysseus, marrying Helen, being deified and ending up as one of the three Magi.\nNikos Kazantzakis' The Odyssey: A Modern Sequel, a 33,333 line epic poem, begins with Odysseus cleansing his body of the blood of Penelope's suitors. Odysseus soon leaves Ithaca in search of new adventures. Before his death he abducts Helen; incites revolutions in Crete and Egypt; communes with God; and meets representatives of various famous historical and literary figures, such as Vladimir Lenin, Jesus and Don Quixote.\nSeveral films have been based on the story of Odysseus. Two recent examples are Brother Where Art Thou, and Cold Mountain.\n\u2191 Liddell, Henry George and Robert Scott, \u1f48\u03b4\u03c5\u03c3\u03c3\u03b5\u1f7a\u03c2 A Greek-English Lexicon (1940).\nBittlestone, Robert with James Diggle, and Underhill, John.

        "title": "Education, Experience Vital to Become Architectural Project Manager | Web College Search",
        "raw_content": "The role of an architectural project manager is one of oversight responsibility to ensure compliance with overall goals. In general terms, that means four broad areas fall under the jurisdiction of the project manager: Scope, time, budget and quality control. The basic responsibility of any project manager is to meet the predefined objective; in the case of an architectural project, that most often means getting a building constructed in compliance with the plans and specifications.\nOn large projects, there may be an in-house project manager in addition to an on-site construction manager. Commercial projects often have layers of management, with one or more junior project managers reporting to a chief or team leader. Responsibilities may be differently defined by architectural firms as well, depending on individual needs. More in-depth knowledge of construction techniques, code compliance and client liaison, as well as the previously-defined responsibilities may be necessary.\nProject management tools exist \u2014 flow charts, computer scheduling and tracking software, cost comparison and quality control programs are all helpful and widely used by architects to control and assess their work.\nNecessary Training and Experience\nMost architects require an architectural degree, and professional licensure is advisable. Some job descriptions also request advanced degrees and extensive experience. An interest in design and aesthetics is of benefit, but the job of project manager is broader in that it requires coordination of a wide variety of diverse concerns.\nIn addition, some on-site construction knowledge is desirable. Knowledge of math and computer skills, and people skills including the ability to communicate effectively, to mediate disagreements and motivate to high achievement are important.\nAnyone interested in architectural project management should have a capacity for detail work.\nThree qualities necessary for the professional architectural project manager are:\nThe innate ability to think logically\nWillingness and ability to meet a challenge, and\nThe capacity to always be a team player\nThe article states that if you are considering architectural project management as a career, you will obtain a master\u2019s degree or higher.\nSalary range, according to U.S. Department of Labor statistics is from $43,000 to $120,000.\nFuture growth of the field, according to the Employment Outlook Handbook of the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, is termed \u201cslower than average,\u201d for the term 2010 through 2020, with a growth of nine percent. That doesn\u2019t necessarily mean that if you are seriously interested in the field, you should change your focus. It does mean that you should consult with professionals, study diligently, and prepare well so that you have the requisite courses, skills, and experience to excel. Interning with an architectural firm, working part-time for an architect, engineer, or construction company, volunteering on design teams or with construction-related non-profits, reading and familiarizing yourself with management, bidding, energy-saving and cost-reducing practices all would assist you in achieving your goals.\nBecause the field is tied to construction and development, the economic forecast should be considered if you are considering a career in architecture or construction, particularly in project management. In a sense, it is a specialized field, niche employment that depends upon the availability of projects requiring the services of a full-time professional manager.\nArchitectural project managers possess many of the same skills as construction managers, but as a general rule more specialized education may be required, i.e., the architecture degree.\nOptions Do Exist\nIf, after serious consideration, you conclude that the educational and experience requirements may be too stringent, you might consider the related field of construction management. Such employees are needed on projects of all sizes and description, from residential to public works, and in small town America as well as abroad. College programs are available, but on-site experience is deemed invaluable. Pursuing that goal offers another viable option in a related field.",

Schmidt, Brown Hotel\nTurkey, bacon, Mornay sauce\nSome versions also use ham, pimentos and/or tomatoes\nCookbook: Hot Brown\nMedia: Hot Brown\nA Hot Brown sandwich (sometimes known as a Louisville Hot Brown or Kentucky Hot Brown) is an American hot sandwich originally created at the Brown Hotel in Louisville, Kentucky, by Fred K. Schmidt in 1926. It is a variation of traditional Welsh rarebit and was one of two signature sandwiches created by chefs at the Brown Hotel shortly after its founding in 1923. It was created to serve as an alternative to ham and egg late-night suppers. [1]\nThe Hot Brown is an open-faced sandwich of turkey and bacon, covered in Mornay sauce and baked or broiled until the bread is crisp and the sauce begins to brown. Many Hot Browns also include ham with the turkey, and either pimentos or tomatoes over the sauce, [2] and imitation Hot Browns sometimes substitute a commercial cheese sauce instead of the Mornay. [3]\nMore common alternatives to the Hot Brown include using Cheddar cheese or American cheese for the sauce. Alternatives for garnishes include tomatoes, mushroom slices, and, very rarely, canned peaches. [1] [4]\nWhen Fred K. Schmidt created the Hot Brown, its sliced roast turkey was a rarity, as turkey was usually reserved for holiday feasts. The original Hot Brown included the sliced turkey on an open-faced white toast sandwich, with Mornay sauce covering it, with a sprinkling of Parmesan cheese, completed by being oven- broiled until bubbly. Pimento and bacon strips were then added to it. After its debut, it quickly became the choice of ninety-five percent of the customers to the Brown Hotel's restaurant. [1] [4]\nThe dish is a local specialty and favorite of the Louisville area, and is popular throughout Kentucky. It was long unavailable at its point of origin, as the Brown Hotel was shut down from 1971 to 1985. [1]\nThe \"cold brown\" was baked poultry ( chicken or turkey), hard-boiled egg, lettuce, and tomato open-faced on rye bread, and covered with Thousand Island dressing. It is rarely served anymore. [1]\nIn St. Louis, the Prosperity Sandwich is a similar dish, with origins at the Mayfair Hotel in the 1920s. [5] It is still served in the area today, and sometimes called a \"hot brown\". [6]\nThe Turkey Devonshire, first served in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania in the 1930s, has been described as being similar to the Hot Brown. [7]\nOn the Food Network, the Hot Brown was featured in an episode of Throwdown! with Bobby Flay. Joe and John Castro, chefs of the Brown Hotel in Kentucky, competed and won against Flay in a cook-off. [8] It has also been featured on episodes of the network's shows The Rachel Ray Show [9] and Southern Fried Road Trip. [10] On the Travel Channel, the Hot Brown has been featured on the show Taste of America with Mark DeCarlo [11] a Louisville-themed episode of Man v. Food Nation. [12] and a 2018 episode of Food Paradise entitled \"Sandwich Heroes\". [13]\nOn PBS, the Hot Brown has been featured in the documentary Sandwiches That You Will Like [14] as well as the program The Mind of a Chef, where Chef David Chang presented his interpretation of the sandwich.

The documents show he owes $374,979 to American Express, $32,199 to Bank of America, and $2.3 million to the CA Franchise Tax Board.\nSinbad might be bankrupt but he is still HOOD-RICH because he still has some BIG toys in his possession that he probably won\u2019t be selling any time soon.

They also submitted their proposals to the Commission, which are also related to quoting. Particularly, the Free Democrats Party has proposed to fix the gender proportion of 30/70.\nIn an interview with WomenNet.am, the party\u2019s vice president, Angela Khachatryan, mentioned that the quota for guaranteed women\u2019s participation has always been one of the issues important for their party, and they have made that offer in 2016.\nAt the same time Angela Khachatryan mentioned that in parallel we should also understand that raising the quota artificially and precisely for the parties, as \u201call of us know very well that for objective reasons women\u2019s involvement in politics is not great and it is largely dependent on women\u2019s preferences. \u201d So, according to her, 30/70 is not an exaggeration or a reduced quota for this moment.\n\u201cAs a young woman politician, I have always emphasized that both the promotion of women\u2019s and youth\u2019s political involvement and their involvement in political processes should be based not only on age and sex, but also on the qualitative characteristics they bring. They are professional and able to bring new ideas and approaches to their political team, \u201cadded our interlocutor.\nAt present, it is known that at least two women will fight for the post of Mayor of Yerevan, Naira Zohrabyan will head the list of Prosperous Armenia party and Zaruhi Postanjyan from Yerkir Tsirani party. Other names are also being circulated in an unofficial domain.",

It has 9 tracks and 5 platforms (three of 450 m and two of 350 m). All the tracks around the station have been modernised to allow high speed arrival and departure. While the station only houses five platforms, it is one of the most important hubs in Belgium because all of the tracks are compatible with high speed trains. The building seems to be a modern interpretation of the classic stations built during the industrial revolution. Calatrava\u2019s dome has equal grandeur and similar dimensions (200m long, 35m high). The extensive use of white makes the station look not only more chicque than its 19th century predecessors; it gives the structure an airy, light-weight and almost delicate appearance.\ncredit: Jacquy Ankaert\nThe Umbracle in Valencia by Sant...\nSouth American Santiago Railway ...\nGreat Stockholm Central Train St...\nTags: Belgium, calatrava, gare-des-guillemins, liege, LiegeGuillemins, Railway, railway station, Santiago, Santiago Calatrava, Station",

        "raw_content": "I've followed Andrea Dunlop on social media for a while, but hadn't tried her writing yet. I had a similar experience with Rachel Del, getting to know the writer online through her posts before I tried out her work. It's an interesting experience to feel like you know an author a little bit before reading her book, and it has paid off twice now!\nI have no regrets about picking up She Regrets Nothing (ha! I had to write just the one pun -- I'm done now, I promise). The storyline read a lot like Gossip Girl for adults -- I felt like Laila's character reminded me a lot of Jenny, and all of things that she got into while trying to fit into the elite world of Manhattan. And just like I felt with Jenny, Laila annoyed me. A lot. One of the most powerful things in contemporary literature is when a character can annoy me to high heavens, but I still can't put the book down. In a way, it also reminded me a The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo -- I couldn't stand Evelyn, but I couldn't stop reading either. I felt exactly the same way about Laila. I wanted to smack her, I wanted to jump into the story and shake her shoulders and tell her to smarten up because she had so many things going for her and kept managing to find ways to screw everything up. When an author can bring out those kinds of emotions with a work of contemporary fiction, I find that admirable.\nShe Regrets Nothing will definitely not be the last of Andrea's books for me, and I'm already looking forward to picking up her other book that I've seen all over Instagram, Losing the Light. I highly recommend this one for your spring break holiday, or to be tucked into your beach bag this summer. It's light and fun, but also has a lot of heart.",

        "raw_content": "WVU's largest freshman class joins the Mountaineer family on move-in weekend\nWest Virginia University's largest ever freshman class was welcomed to campus Sunday.\nBarb McPherson was dreading this weekend. She knew after having already moved three of her other children into residence halls throughout the years, the last would be the toughest.\nSo, when daughter Maddison made her last trip into her first-floor Boreman North room Friday at West Virginia University, the emotions set in.\n\u201cThis is the baby. It\u2019s bittersweet,\u201d Barb said. \u201cHer sisters both graduated from here and my son is going to school back home. She is by herself with no family \u2013 with friends \u2013 but no family. It makes it tough.\u201d\nEmotions like those flow freely each and every year on WVU\u2019s Move-In Day, and this one was no different. There were tears, hugs and smiles just about everywhere you looked as families moved in their new students to residence halls across campus.\nThen on Sunday, incoming students gathered together at the Coliseum for New Student Welcome. It\u2019s the only time the Class of 2016 will be together at any point in their WVU careers.\nThey heard from WVU President Jim Clements, Student Government Association President Zach Redding and special guest speaker Alison Levine, the first female American to complete the Adventure Grand Slam \u2013 climbing the highest peak on each continent and skiing to the North and South Poles.\nAs Maddison was moving in Friday, the general studies major from Newell said she would miss her mom the most.\n\u201cThat makes me feel very warm inside. We are very close,\u201d Barb said, tears welling up. \u201cI\u2019m trying not be selfish, because this is about her and I want to be happy. I want her to enjoy her college life.\n\u201cThis is a great school, and this is going to be a great experience for her being a bit away from home. I\u2019m sure I babied her too much since she was the youngest, so she\u2019ll grow up a little.\u201d\nOn Friday, the last of around 5,200 freshmen \u2013 the largest class in WVU history \u2013 moved into their rooms and started their college careers after saying goodbye to family members.\n\u201cYou\u2019re supposed to raise your children to go off and do this, but when it comes it\u2019s a little heart breaking at the same time,\u201d said Laura Stout, a 1991 WVU graduate from Summersville and mother of twin daughters. \u201cThis is my alma mater, so it makes me feel a little better.\u201d\nEmily, a pre-speech pathology and audiology major, and Megan, an occupational therapy major, are staying in different rooms for the first time in 18 years \u2013 one in Boreman South and the other in Summit Hall.\n\u201cWe\u2019re going to have to get an apartment together next year, and we\u2019ve been living together for this long, so we needed a year apart,\u201d Megan said.\nEmily added: \u201cI\u2019m pretty excited. I\u2019m just excited to meet new people and start a new part of my life. I\u2019m nervous too, but I think I\u2019ll get adjusted pretty quickly.\u201d\nFor Laura, the experience of being a parent to children going to WVU has made her want to come back to college, she admitted.\n\u201cI hope that they join a bunch of activities and meet new people. I told them to take advantage of it here, because once you are out and working, it\u2019s not so fun anymore,\u201d she said. \u201cI love the amount of opportunities that they have that I didn\u2019t have when I was here.\u201d\nOn Saturday, students had the opportunity to get acclimated to college life through the First-Year Academy. Students visited with representatives from their colleges and took a tour of the libraries on campus.\nIn Sunday\u2019s Welcome, President Clements told the students, \u201cBecoming a Mountaineer is like joining a big family. Wear your \u2018Flying WV\u2019 proudly. When you graduate, you will help us to carry on our tradition of excellence.\n\u201cFrom everything I\u2019ve heard, this is an awesome group of students \u2013 5,200 strong \u2013 which makes you the largest incoming freshman class in the history of WVU,\u201d he said.\n\u201cI want you to visualize yourself with the cap and gown, and then I want you to work hard every single day to make that happen. I know you will make that happen.\u201d\nLevine, the first woman to navigate the tallest peak on each continent and ski to the North and South Poles, said, \u201cWhile I didn\u2019t go here, I truly know what it takes to be a Mountaineer\u201d as she likened her challenges on Mount Everest to the challenges they will face during college and their life.\nWVU students started the \u201cLet\u2019s go\u2014Mountaineers!\u201d cheer before the event even took place. Mountaineer Mascot Jonathan Kimble helped teach the group the first-down cheer in preparation of the first football game next month.\nStudents also watched a video from students and faculty with tips on how to navigate their first year on campus.\nMichael Jones, a pre-sport and exercise psychology major, and Bentley Knight, a biochemistry major, of New Martinsville have known each other since second grade, and now they get to experience college together.\nFrom their room in Boreman South, both said they were excited for WVU athletic events.\n\u201cI will miss my friends and family most. Of course it\u2019s going to be an adjustment. But I\u2019m looking forward to meeting a lot of other people and getting to know them,\u201d Jones said.\nClasses start Monday, and the annual FallFest concert takes place that evening to signify the start of the 2012 fall semester. Make sure to follow @WVUToday on Twitter to respond to questions throughout Welcome Week.\nCheck out the weekend from the student\u2019s perspective on our Storify at http://www.wvutoday.wvu.edu/welcome_week/.\nNew Student Welcome \u2014 WVU Mountaineer Jonathan Kimble leads Sunday's New Student Welcome in one of the school's iconic cheers.

        "raw_content": "Analysis Paralysis, Procrastination & Fear\nThese are the common themes I struggle with. And today I'm ok talking about them, writing about them and sharing my experience with others. And as I attempt to grow in my understanding of them, I find I'm not unique in nearly as many ways as I thought.\n\u0093Analysis paralysis or paralysis by analysis is an anti-pattern, the state of over-analyzing (or over-thinking) a situation so that a decision or action is never taken, in effect paralyzing the outcome.\u0094\n\u2014 Wikipedia, October 2015\nMaybe you've felt this way, maybe you haven't. I'm getting better with it and more comfortable with a process of action that moves through it. And behind it for me, i've found, is often fear. Fear of making the wrong decision, fear of failure, fear of what others will think. However, i've come to realize that the fears are not real (like danger is real) and that when i work through whatever it is or however it up in my life, i'm often amazed by how quickly it simply fades away.\nWhat decision, project, goal or other aspect of your life is effected by Analysis Paralysis?\n\u0093The essence of procrastination lies in not doing what you think you should be doing, a mental contortion that surely accounts for the great psychic toll the habit takes on people. This is the perplexing thing about procrastination: although it seems to involve avoiding unpleasant tasks, indulging in it generally doesn\u2019t make people happy.\u0094\n\u2014 James Suroweicki\nHere's another one that's on of my biggest growth areas. I procrastinate. On the stupidest stuff. I avoid stuff i don't want to do. I avoid what i'm not proficient or excel at. I avoid, put off, delay wherever I can.\nThere's a whole lot of fear behind my procrastination. Let's say, i have a presentation at work or something. Well, I'm a perfectionist. And if delay on the project, I can delay the fear and uncertainty that come with what's working in me behind being a perfectionist.\nI used to position it that I was really good with deadlines, now i realize that i'm really good at being lazy and being driven by motivating factors that i'm only slowly becoming aware of. And as Suroweicki's quote above says, the perplexing thing about it is that it doesn't work as to make me happy. It only delays what I have to do anyway. It puts additional, unnecessary pressure on me. It builds and mounts until i can't put it off any longer. That's not really a good thing for peace in my life. This week I'm going to make a concerted effort for a little less procrastination in my life.\nThere was a time not too long ago where i had a whole lot of this going on under the surface, but was unaware of it. Today, I learn about it. I write about it. I talk about it. I meditate on it. I grow in my understanding.\nHowever, that can be a catch 22. In a world of busy-ness driven by a consumer culture that constantly tells us that we'll only be ok and good enough if we have this or get the newest that, these are not comfortable topic for the world at large. Let's talk about the weather, the sports team, the tv show, politics, the news - anything but what's really going on in our lives. The good ole American way I guess.\nI guess i'll continue to read about it, listen to others talk about it and write about it, while seeking direction to do more about it.\nNewer PostReflections on time\nOlder PostDays 8 - I don't even know...",

        "raw_content": "With 2Q Economic Job Bounce Back Will There be a Future Labor Shortage?\nU.S. jobless claims declined to 43 year low, manufacturing data rises, and an overall increasing trend in single family home purchases. Good news, good news, and more good news! With an unemployment rate of 4.7% and an unemployment drop of 18,000 to 259,000 could we soon find ourselves with a qualified labor shortage.\nIt is important to distinguish qualified labor shortage from labor shortage. The former is more likely while the later is more of a remote possibility. Qualified labor means people who are able to take on skilled jobs in a growing market. They will need to be educated and trained.\nThe other side of the economic information is that manufacturing data is rising which means more hiring is a good possibility in the near future. We may actually see a situation where qualified labor will become more expensive and wages will rise naturally based on market forces.\nIt is also possible that more expenditures in training will be seen in companies that must fill the skills gap. They will hire people with some of the experience and skills they need and then focus on creating general skills that will help them fulfill their needs.\nAs a nation this may be a good time to consider our higher education approaches and the need to get qualified labor out into the market. Offering alternative sources of education with schools that provide focused educational training on key skills that will be well received in the market and capitalize on changing trends in job openings.",

This is its primary investment objective.\nAs a leader in impact investing, the HIT also seeks to generate measurable social impacts.\nThese impacts flow from HIT\u2019s direct sourcing of, and focus on, high credit quality construction-related multifamily MBS, which are also the foundation of its competitive performance.\nThe HIT strives to:\nCreate union construction jobs \u2013 union labor is required for all on-site construction work\nCreate and preserve housing, particularly affordable and workforce housing\nAchieving these collateral goals aid in the generation of broader economic and fiscal benefits (i.e. the benefits of construction work ripple throughout the community).\nThe HIT's investment philosophy reflects the values of working people. The American labor movement established HIT's predecessor fund in 1965 with the goal \u2013 described by the founding President of the AFL-CIO George Meany \u2013 of providing unions a \"higher interest return with maximum degree of safety\" through investments to \"meet America's tremendous unmet housing needs and to replace deteriorating housing units.\"\nGuided by these principles, the HIT has devoted itself to achieving this union vision. It has demonstrated that it is possible to achieve competitive fixed-income returns and a high degree of investment security for working people, while improving the nation\u2019s housing stock, fostering community development, and creating good union jobs.\nEconomic Impact Data: Job and economic benefits in this document are estimates calculated by Pinnacle Economics and the HIT using an IMPLAN input-output model based on project data from the HIT and its subsidiary Building America.

The report provides an overview of school gardens in Sonoma County, and highlights the successes and challenges to creating and sustaining school gardens. The report is intended to be used as a planning tool for school gardens in Sonoma County and useful when viewed in conjunction with the Farm to School Sonoma County survey.\nStudies have demonstrated that hands-on school gardening activities positively change attitudes about fruit and vegetable consumption, and that improved nutrition is linked to improvements in academic performance, test scores, and mental and emotional well being. In addition to the effects of school garden programs on dietary behaviors, health outcomes, and emotional well being, these programs also support experiential learning in many academic areas, enhanced appreciation of natural systems and the environment, and provide opportunities for cross-cultural and intergenerational experiences.\nIn light of the importance of school gardens, this survey found that in order to help school gardens in Sonoma County flourish, additional stakeholder involvement and innovative funding strategies are needed. Identified key highlights of the survey include:\nPast or present garden activity\nUse of gardens by respective grades\nBarriers to garden implementation\nPublic charter schools with highest percentage of active gardens\nCost as number one challenge",

        "title": "Alive and Young: Movie Review: Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed",
        "raw_content": "Intelligent design. Is it a legitimate proposal that should be considered in the modern scientific community? It\u2019s a question that Ben Stein puts forth in the recent documentary Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed. Though Ben does not and cannot settle the issue on his own, he does make it clear that there is a group of individuals within the scientific community that are not just against intelligent design but are hostile towards it: who often confuse it as a religious belief incompatible with science.\nLuckily, in his signature monotone fashion, Ben points out the common misconception that intelligent design and creationism are the same philosophical belief. Religious individuals often propose the latter, while the former is perfectly compatible with nearly any walk of life and philosophical belief \u2013 except one. That lone incompatible philosophical mind set is known as scientific materialism. Scientific materialism is the philosophical belief that, in short, proposes that all that exists is the physical world and everything can be known according to physical reactions. There is no room for supernatural events or anything that exists outside our known space, time, and matter in the scientific materialistic world-view. Stein didn\u2019t go into scientific materialism itself, but it is clearly there in the philosophical undertones of many of the Darwinian scientists he interviews.\nThe main point of this documentary is not so much a push for or against a certain philosophical belief as it is an attempt to remind the scientific community that they might not be as open to alternate theories as they claim to be. As it is, Stein demonstrates the closed mindedness of certain scientific communities that hide behind the banner of academic freedom, but really what these nay saying scientists really mean by the term \u201cacademic freedom\u201d is that you are free to believe as they do, and to propose another theory could mean suicide to one\u2019s professional scientific career even if there is good reason to that alternate theory.\nThe weakness of the movie is that there is mention of the holes in Darwinism and other scientific claims, but Stein never goes into what those holes are and how ID can or might fill those holes. The viewer doesn\u2019t learn about Darwin\u2019s theory and doesn\u2019t learn how to have an intelligent conversation with others about ID or Darwinism. Surprisingly, the movie does make known the shady origins of Planned Parenthood and makes known its origins in Darwin\u2019s theory, eugenics, and how the Nazis used the ideas of eugenics, propagated by Planned Parenthood, to usher in the murder of disabled, Jews, and others the Nazis deemed unfit for society. A theory of natural selection, when applied to humanity, makes humanity a thing that can be used and disposed of on and at the whim of another.\nOverall, I found the movie enjoyable. It isn\u2019t a \u2018must see\u2019, but it is worth seeing at some point. It does raise some interesting concerns in the realm of academic freedom and scientific honesty, which are always hot button issues. Also, one must consider after watching the movie if scientists are being honest in not considering an alternative theory that might be equally useful in explaining how some parts of the world function?\nHaeckelian type of vulgar evolutionism drove not only the 'Politics-is-applied-biology' Nazi takeover, but also the nationalistic collision at the World War I. It was Charles Darwin himself, who praised and raised the monstrous Haeckel in the spotlight as the greatest authority in the field of human evolution, even in the preface to his Descent of man in 1871. I defended this A0 poster on the topic in two conferences on bioethics:\nhttp://www.helsinki.fi/~pjojala/Asian_Bioethics.pdf\nI wish an analogous documentary film was made concerning the DINOGLYFS or dinolits:\nhttp://www.helsinki.fi/~pjojala/dinosaur.htm\nIt seems that the ancient man not only saw but also documented the last megafauna (gigafauna, I should say).\npauli.ojala@gmail.com\nBiochemist, drop-out (Master of Sciing)\nhttp://www.helsinki.fi/~pjojala/Expelled-ID.htm",

        "title": "6 Things I Learned from #MYANCHORGROUP \u2014 Anchor Oneonta Church",
        "raw_content": "1. Church doesn't have to be comfortable all the time.\nMy wife, Kimmy, and I just moved into our new home this past November. A lot has happened since then with us having to put money, effort, and energy into several projects around the house. Because of this, we had to pass on a substantial air conditioning solution this year. For whatever reason, it seemed as though every Thursday night this summer was the hottest night of the whole week outside. Imagine 15-30 people crammed into a living room that's 80-90 degrees feeling hot, sticky and sweaty. But it worked, and people kept coming back.\nToo many times in church we try to make everything super comfortable. We have to have the perfect temperature, the perfect lighting, comfortable chairs, the most familiar songs, a cushy feel-good sermon, etc. #MYANCHORGROUP proved to me this summer that church is more than these things. Church is people, and people love to love other people even in hot, sticky, and sweaty conditions.\n2. It's ok to talk about tough stuff.\nOne night in particular this summer, we got into a heated debate about racial differences and tension in our country. We heard different perspectives from all sorts of different people with different opinions. Through it all, I saw the church engaging and handling social issues and conflict in a godly way. Though people were disagreeing on a few issues and getting a little heated at times, we all came together at the end of the night to prayer for each other and this issue.\nI believe that church should be full of this: people from all different backgrounds and opinions coming together to discuss and debate how Jesus is the savior of the world in every situation. We can't be afraid to talk about difficult stuff in church anymore. We don't have that luxury if we take on the mission to reach people where they are at. How are we supposed to show people Jesus if we're not willing to engage? Let's lay it all on the line, and love each other in the end.\n3. Some people are more comfortable worshiping in a living room than in a church.\nThroughout the summer, we had a few people come through #MYANCHORGROUP who haven't attended our weekly Sunday worship service, and I think it's awesome. Some people simply enjoy the close-knit, casual atmosphere that doing church in a living room will bring rather than a larger worship service. I do believe that large corporate gatherings of believers are crucial to the spiritual health of God's people in so many ways. I also think that small gatherings are excellent opportunities to talk, discuss, and pray in ways that are not possible on Sundays. These kinds of small groups benefit Christians who are part of a larger worship experience, and are also excellent previews into grace-filled living for those who do not currently subscribe to Christianity. Either way, it's a win.\n4. Prayer really, really brings people together.\nAt the end of each night, we took a few minutes to go around the room and give everybody a chance to give a life update and ask for prayer for a certain situation or person in their life. This was huge in so many ways. It allowed us to vent about problems, give praise to God for awesomeness happening in our lives, hear about how others are doing in their walks with God, get honest with everybody, and present all of our crazy, ugly, beautiful, raw lives to God together in prayer. Together we believed in the power of God for some major things this summer, and we saw many of these things come to pass (new jobs, living situations, physical healings, forgiveness, and more)!\n5. Committing to a community is a huge win.\nThis point is not very profound, but it's worth mentioning. Something that I struggle with constantly is being over-extended in my obligations. I have been trying to slow down a bit, focus on the things that really matter, and devote myself to the things that God wants me to. Sometimes, being so busy means that you don't have time for a social life. However, I noticed in my life and many others' who were part of #MYANCHORGROUP that if we just commit ourselves to spending time with each other, it creates an amazingly simple avenue to love and serve other people, and to receive love in big ways. I know many people who walk through life feeling alone and unloved. If we would just commit ourselves to a community of people, especially in the context of church, these desires to love, be loved, and build meaningful relationships tend to be satisfied.\n6. Don't get so wrapped up in theology that you forget what the point is.\nI love to study God. Some of my most precious times with Him are when I'm thinking about Him, His character, His word, how it all pieces together, etc. As a pastor, I'm tempted way too easily to get wrapped up in having proper, perfect theology that I forget that the whole point is to love God and love people. Don't get me wrong; having a good understanding of God through the Bible is an absolutely crucial aspect of walking through this life as a Christian, but sometimes we can get too wrapped up in properly thinking about God that we forget to actually open ourselves up to joyfully experiencing God. Like our friend Justin likes to say, \"It's not a religious thing, it's a Jesus thing.\" In a group like #MYANCHORGROUP, it's such a joy to experience God through the pieces of Godly truth that others bring to the conversation, the prayers that they offer, the different perspectives that they have, and the love that they share with the community.\nSome honorable mentions to this list include:\nGarlic Lover's hummus is clearly the best hummus\nWhen two or more kids are gathered, total chaos ensues\nIt's always a good idea to get frozen yogurt together afterward\nSeriously though, get a better air conditioner\nThere is no proper way to cut a watermelon\ntagged with #MYANCHORGROUP, small group, Church, community",

        "raw_content": "> 2007 Loeb Awards\nNEW YORK - Journalists from across the nation gathered tonight at New York City's Cipriani 42nd Street for the 2007 Gerald Loeb Awards Banquet. Celebrating their 50th anniversary, the Loeb Awards are among the highest honors in business journalism and recognize the work of journalists whose contributions illuminate the world of business, finance and the economy for readers and viewers around the world.\nJudy D. Olian, dean of UCLA Anderson School of Management and chairman of the G. and R. Loeb Foundation, welcomed Loeb Awards honorees and their guests. Tyler Mathisen, CNBC managing editor for business news and host of \"High Net Worth\" served as the master of ceremonies.\nLoeb Award winners were chosen from 12 competition categories and named at tonight's banquet, along with the recipients of two special career contribution awards. Matthew Winkler, editor-in-chief of Bloomberg News, received the Lifetime Achievement Award and the Lawrence Minard Editor Award went to Dan Kelly, news editor, page one with The Wall Street Journal. The Mayor of New York City, Michael R. Bloomberg, presented the award to Matthew Winkler. Following is the complete list of the 2007 Loeb Awards recipients, along with a brief synopsis of their award-winning work.\nCharles Forelle, James Bandler, Mark Maremont and Steve Stecklow of The Wall Street Journal for \"The Secretive Backdating of Option Awards for Corporate Executives\"\nThis detailed investigation of stock option abuses began with the reporting team's creative application of probability theory and evolved into one of the highest-impact business stories of the year. The piece exposed a number of companies whose stock option grant dates were consistently and suspiciously timed with low points in the stock's pricing. The exposure led to federal investigations of 140 companies and the firings or resignations of at least 70 top officials.\nChiaki Kawajiri, Gady A. Epstein and Stephanie Desmon of The Baltimore Sun for \"Crab Factory\"\nThis well-written tale of Maryland\u2019s storied blue crab is artfully woven into a saga of globalization and entrepreneurship, revealing both the winners and losers of outsourcing, fueled by the American consumer's demand for cheap products. As the Chesapeake Bay's crab industry struggled for survival, Maryland-based Phillips Crab House began importing Asian blue crab creating a $1 billion industry with their new \"Maryland-style crab,\" and triggering economic and social effects in communities across the bay and in Asia.\nMike McAndrew and Michelle Breidenbach of The Post-Standard (Syracuse, N.Y.) for \"The Great Empire Zone Giveaway\"\nThis incisive series revealed New York's appallingly mismanaged Empire Zone program of tax incentives designed to promote and expand businesses, and exposed millions of dollars in waste. Despite fierce resistance from the city, the reporters crafted a classic piece of investigative journalism by scouring property records, federal securities disclosures and other public records. Their series sparked action by the state's lieutenant governor who cited the stories and promised to eliminate waste in the system.\nCharles Fishman of Fast Company for \"How Many Lightbulbs Does It Take to Change the World? One\"\nWith exquisite insight and humor, Charles Fishman tackles what might seem like a pedestrian topic - the use of lightbulbs in the home - and shapes a beautiful and persuasive story about energy conservation and personal responsibility. A wonderful example of explanatory journalism, his story impacted people across the country, influencing energy use in thousands, if not tens of thousands of homes.\nSteve Bailey of The Boston Globe for \"Steve Bailey Downtown\"\nWhether he's flying to Key West for the scoop on junkets enjoyed by board members of the Middlesex County retirement system or telling the saga of John Walsh, a boot-strapping first-generation millionaire trying to crack into a posh old-money Beacon Hill cooperative, Bailey brings both a sense of outrage and shoe-leather reporting to his columns. Giving voice to the common man, his thorough reporting often brings attention and change to questionable practices.\nAnn Davis, Henny Sender and Gregory Zuckerman of The Wall Street Journal for \"The Implosion of a Highflying Hedge Fund\"\nThis superbly written account of the biggest hedge-fund collapse ever is classic storytelling for a broad audience, while also reflecting the sophistication that serious business readers deserve. The collapse was the result of risky investments in natural gas made mainly by a single brash energy trader, who, due to the reporting team's careful perseverance, happened to be the main source for the story.\nHeather Landy of Fort Worth Star-Telegram for \"Radio Shack CEO's Resume in Question\"\nAlso nominated in the medium newspaper category, Landy's piece is testament to how quality beat reporting can serve as an effective public watchdog. Displaying remarkable ingenuity, the reporter discovered the resume inflation of Radio Shack's chief executive officer and tenaciously pursued leads until the truth came out and the CEO resigned.\nNews Services or Online Content Winner\nAlistair Barr of MarketWatch for \"Who Are the Short Sellers?\"\nAlistair Barr found a way into the shadowy world of short sellers that would have eluded less intrepid reporters. Providing detailed and fair analysis of a complex topic, Barr gives all sides of the issue solid scrutiny, revealing both the upside and downside of short-selling, while shedding light on an extraordinary, but poorly covered area of the financial markets.\nLouis Uchitelle of The New York Times for \"Rewriting the Social Contract\"\nA veteran of financial journalism, Uchitelle\u2019s breath of experience and profound perspective is evidenced through his exemplary body of work and a storytelling style that mixes anecdotal material with hard-nosed analysis. One terrific example is last year's feature Uchitelle wrote about a doctor who decided he wasn\u2019t making enough money, so he became a consultant on Wall Street and quickly became a multi-millionaire.\nJim Popkin, Lisa Myers and Adam Ciralsky of NBC News for \"Trophy\"\nThis report revealed a secret effort by the US Army to thwart development of a new Israeli device called \"trophy,\" designed to defend soldiers from rocket-propelled grenades. Over an eight-month period, the reporting team uncovered the army's aim to protect a $70 million Raytheon contract to produce a competing product from scratch. Their timely story triggered a government accountability office investigation and a new law in Congress.\nJeff Fager, Steve Kroft, Andy Court, Keith Sharman, Patti Hassler and Daniel J. Glucksman of CBS News 60 Minutes for \"The Mother of All Heists\"\nIn this stunning report, Steve Kroft and \"60 Minutes\" reveal the rampant corruption that has infected a succession of Iraqi governments since the toppling of Saddam Hussein. The investigation includes an allegation that at least half a billion dollars intended to equip the new Iraqi military was stolen by the very people the U.S. government had entrusted to run it.\nChris Anderson for \"The Long Tail: Why the Future of Business Is Selling Less of More\" published by Hyperion Books\nAnderson spins a thought-provoking argument about how the rise of the digital economy makes \"hits\" less important and niche products more dominant. From supermarket shelves to advertising agencies, the ability to offer vast choices is changing, from songs on iTunes to advertising on Google. Anderson argues that if the 20th century was about \"hits,\" the 21st century will be about niches.\n2007 Loeb Awards Honor Roll\nFollowing are the 2007 Loeb Awards table sponsors:\n50TH ANNIVERSARY BENEFACTORS\nIn addition, we wish to express our gratitude to the underwriter of this year's Loeb Awards finalist seminar and all those who have donated items for this evening's gift bag.\nFINALIST SEMINAR HOST\nGIFT BAG CONTRIBUTORS\nThe Loeb Awards also presented a career development seminar hosted by NASDAQ exclusively for the 2007 Loeb Awards finalists. The event took place this morning at the NASDAQ Marketsite headquarters. Featured presentations included: \"Why Editing Matters\" by Lifetime Achievement Award Recipient Mathew Winkler and Lawrence Minard Editor Recipient Dan Kelly and \"Winning on the Internet without Losing Your Soul\" by several members of the Loeb Awards final judging panel.\nEstablished in 1957 by Gerald Loeb, a founding partner of E.F. Hutton, the Loeb Awards recognize journalists who have made significant contributions to the public's understanding of business, finance and the economy. The judges select winners based on quality of reporting and writing, news and analytical value, originality and exclusivity, and in the broadcast categories only, production value and visual impact. UCLA Anderson School of Management has presented the awards since 1973.

        "raw_content": "You are here: Home \u00bb Research \u00bb Mewar Encyclopedia \u00bb Introductions by co-authors \u00bb Ian Austin\nIntroduction by Ian Austin\nThere were three areas of inspiration for me to produce an Encyclopedia about the Mewar Dynasty. The primary one was the subject itself. Already, it had inspired me to storyline a novel, a book of short stories, a book of one-act plays, and the libretto of an opera, all of which are works in progress at the time of writing. In March, 1999, Arvind Singh Mewar ('Shriji' as he is affectionately known by all), who had seen several drafts of some of the work, commissioned me to write Mewar - The World's Longest Serving Dynasty.\nThe second inspiration for me to produce this book was that there was not an up-to-date and comprehensive reference book (such as an encyclopedia) readily available in English to authors for research purposes. My research for the above-mentioned book and works-in-progress was exhaustive but, from the outset, what I wanted on my bookshelf was a reliable aid within immediate reach that focussed on the people, places and events of the Dynasty. For a writer seeking veracity, lack of correct data can be as much a danger as an abundance of incorrect details.\nThe third inspiration was obvious: that old adage, \"If you want something done, do it yourself\". And so, in the final days of the 20th Century, the idea of The Mewar Encyclopedia was born, to assist future researchers and writers on Mewar (and there will be many, as the subject has almost limitless possibilities for literary exploration), also to help scholars, and even tourist visitors to Udaipur. Thankfully, Shriji liked the idea and assigned the erudite head of the Maharana Mewar Research Institute, Thakur Nahar Singh of Jasol, and his staff to assist me with verification of subject matter.\nThus I embarked on the rather formidable task of finding the facts, and assembling them in this encyclopedia, primarily as a publication, and also for the Internet. Its many hundreds of entries are what I consider to be the Dynasty's most important people, places and events.\nContents. The Encyclopedia covers the major personalities, places and events in Mewar\u2019s long history, with a nod to some of the interesting legends, and minor aspects as well.\nSpelling. One problem area of assembling and editing an encyclopaedia, or any book based on history, is the variation in the spelling of a person's name, a place, or an event, and so on, which can and often does vary from place to place, and even within differently-sourced reference books. It can lead to confusion and frustration and even the perpetuation of an error (cross-checking a reference is fraught with danger as many spellings may be, themselves, no more than repetitions of an earlier error). Unfortunately, the problem is virtually insurmountable, therefore I decided an standardised Encyclopedia was necessary, if not for myself now, then for future writers. Wherever I have discovered one or more spelling variations I have given what is considered by experts in this field to be the correct or most popularly accepted version as the entry heading, followed by the variation/s in parenthesis. Additionally, I have noted that a sometimes-seen version, such as might appear in a tourist guide book. All spellings receive an entry heading with a cross-reference (See so-and-so) to the more acceptable spelling.\nLinks. A word or words, either a name, place or event that appears in smaller CAPITALS means that it has its own entry.\n\"Foreign\" words. I have decided not to show these words or phrases in the traditional form of italics for a good reason: Many of the Hindi or Persian words included here are in common usage throughout India, particularly proper nouns, so how does one decide what to italicise? I think you will find my breaking with literary tradition does not lead to confusion.\nTitles. As in all encyclopaedia, an entry about a particular person begins with his surname (or family name) for easy reference purposes\u2014i.e., Tod, Captain James or, with a titled person, his given name, then a comma followed by the title\u2014i.e., Dulha, Kunwar. However, it is interesting to note that, normally, with the title \"Kunwar\" (a younger son of a ruler, not the Crown Prince and heir), Kunwar Dulha would be his actual title and name, yet if written without the comma\u2014i.e., Dulha Kunwar\u2014it would indicate that the person was the daughter of a ruler (also shown as Kunwari).\nThe Concise History of Mewar. As I have found in carrying out research for other projects, an alphabetical inventory is limited in relation to an overall picture if there is no accompanying chronological perspective. Therefore, I have also included a thumbnail table, The Concise History of Mewar., which provides this essential perspective.\nDates. Unless otherwise indicated, the dates in parentheses, e.g., (1537-1572) or (r. 1537-1572) are the years of a ruler's reign. As the time of the Mewar Dynasty began within the last millennium, generally I have not preceded years with AD, but have used this only if there might be a chance of ambiguity.\nPlease note that there are no entries for the letters Q and X.\nI am greatly indebted to Shriji Arvind Singh Mewar of Udaipur, whom I first met on a terrace at the Rambagh Palace Hotel in Jaipur one afternoon in 1982. The occasion was an interview I used for an episode of Hidden India, a 6-hour international television documentary series that I was writing and directing on location. At the time Shriji was not even the Baji Rao (Crown Prince) of the Mewar family; that title belonged to his elder brother, Mahendra Singh (but that's another story, well-covered in the first Mewar book and in this Encyclopedia). Arvind Singh was the younger brother, a Maharaj Kumar (or Kunwar), the general title of all sons of a Mewar king. Because of his total commitment to preserving and promoting the heritage of Mewar, the advent of his becoming the head of the dynasty was, I am sure, pre-ordained.\nI am also indebted to my co-author and co-editor, Thakur Nahar Singh Jasol, Administrator of the City Palace Museum, Udaipur and Director of the Maharana Mewar Research Institute, and his tireless staff, for the wonderful backup they provided in helping me to translate, compile, edit and write this book.\nI hope it will be of value to others seeking facts and figures about the erstwhile Mewar Dynasty, and that it may be an inspiration, providing ideas for creative output in the future.",

Parents will need to address questions of liability and damages, including payment for past and future medical expenses and other damages incurred by the child. This can be a daunting and unsatisfying task. The parent of an injured child is likely already under a tremendous amount of stress given the traumatic nature of the child's injury.\nInsurance adjustors are trained to take advantage of this fact so that the company can resolve or settle the claim as cheaply as possible.\nFirst a word about the insurance industry when it comes to resolving injury claims. It is fair to say that the moment a person has been injured by someone's negligence, that person has also entered into a war zone with the insurance industry. No, that is not an overstatement. For more than 30 years, the insurance industry has spent hundreds of millions, if not billions, of dollars on advertising to spread false and misleading information about accident claims. The industry wants people to believe that the justice system is out of control and that people who file lawsuits are getting millions of dollars for minor injuries. Take it from someone who is literally in the \"trenches,\" and who has settled and litigated hundreds if not thousands of injury claims, such propaganda simply isn't true. Oh sure, you will occasionally read about the million-dollar case for what appears to be a minor injury as reported in your local newspaper, but such a case is usually the exception. Most injury cases are resolved for amounts that are much less than a million dollars, and many times less than six figures. And this includes those cases involving more severe injuries. Many severe injuries receive inadequate or no compensation at all due to a variety of factors, not the least of which is the vigorous defense often mounted by the insurance company to either defeat the case entirely or to significantly lessen the value of the claim.\nThe insurance carrier does this by hiring aggressive defense attorneys and high-priced experts to say that the accident was someone else's fault, that the injuries are not that severe, or that they were caused by some other factor or pre-existing condition. Most people have no idea about the extreme efforts some insurance carriers will go to defeat even legitimate claims. In fact, it is not uncommon that some of these companies will spend much more money defending the claim by hiring lawyers and experts than an amount it would take to settle the case for a reasonable sum.\nThe insurance industry's far-reaching propaganda machine has created the false impression in the public that the system needs fixing. Unfortunately, this \"disinformation\" spread by the industry has had an enormous negative influence on juries and their verdicts. Juries today are highly skeptical about people who file lawsuits that claim money for \"pain and suffering\" (even when those claims involve children!). Many people who wind up on juries believe the myths touted by the insurance industry, or they may be highly persuaded by the arguments of their high-priced attorneys and the testimony of their formidable experts who earn substantial income working for the defense. These efforts by the industry may be a huge obstacle to achieving justice in the case of your child, even when the injuries are severe and the negligence of the other party has been conclusively established. Lawyers who handle injury cases have learned that it is much more difficult to achieve justice for their clients in today's climate of skepticism and increased propaganda. If your child has an injury claim, you need to be aware that the insurance adjustor will utilize any means necessary to pay out as little as possible, even on legitimate claims that involve serious injuries. It does not matter to the adjustor that the victim is a small child or that the injuries are so catastrophic as to evoke tremendous sympathy from most people who understand what has happened to your child. Insurance claims adjustors receive extensive training on how to save the company money, and not necessarily on how to examine a child's claim fairly and pay a reasonable settlement. In fact, most insurance companies reward their claims adjustors with bonuses or promotions based on how much money that person saves the company rather than on whether the claims are settled fairly. So, when the adjustor listens to the facts of your child's injury claim , he or she is thinking of ways to pay out as little as possible so the bonus is bigger at the end of the year.\nArticle Tags: Insurance Company, Injury Claims, Insurance Industry\nChristopher M.

        "title": "Why Participate in ArtPrize?",
        "raw_content": "Blog > Why Participate in ArtPrize?\nWhy Participate in ArtPrize?\nBy ArtPrize on April 20, 2017\nSo why enter ArtPrize? While the possibility of taking home part of that $500,000 in prizes may be motivation, it\u2019s far from the only reason you should participate.\nHere are eight reasons why ArtPrize is worth the $50 artist registration fee:\n1. THE CITY IS YOUR CANVAS\nGrand Rapids is a city that is open and receptive to experimentation -- the city \u201cfinds a way to yes\u201d by placing risky or ambitious work in unusual places. There are expected spaces where artists can show work at ArtPrize -- museums, galleries, coffee shops, restaurants and hotel lobbies -- but there are also lots of surprising, non-traditional indoor and outdoor spaces like the Grand River and bridges that cross it, vacant office spaces, laundromats, auto mechanics and distilleries. Even the Grand Rapids Police Department, the US Post Office and an old city water treatment plant are venues during ArtPrize.\n2. THE PUBLIC RESPONDS TO YOUR WORK\nArtPrize is an ideal place for artists who are interested in engaging with a diverse and engaged public on a scale unlike any other event. During ArtPrize, hundreds of thousands of people come to downtown Grand Rapids just to see art.\nIn a city of 200,000 people, there are 500,000 visitors, from the city, the county, the state and many other states. In the streets, bars and restaurants, on television and online, they react to the work they\u2019ve seen with countless conversations, recommendations and mobile votes.\nNorth Carolina artist Stacy Kirby, winner of the Juried Grand Prize of $200,000 in 2016 for her interactive performance and installation \u201cThe Bureau of Personal Belonging\u201d, says: \u201cArtists should feel empowered to use their work to manifest change through conversation and connection. ArtPrize definitely offers such a platform. The 5,000 visitors that came through The Bureau experienced the product of ArtPrize's commitment to openly supporting all artists.\u201d\n3. THERE ARE GRANTS TO HELP YOU MAKE IT HAPPEN\nThroughout the year, ArtPrize awards $280,000 in grants to artists, curators, and educators through several grant programs. Artist Seed Grants awards $50,000 to 25 artists in grants of $2,000 each, and any ArtPrize artist can apply.\nBig outdoor projects are eligible for larger grants through the Featured Public Projects program, which awards a total of $85,000 to a handful of artists in grants ranging from $1,500 to $15,000 each.\nAlso there\u2019s ArtPrize Pitch Night, which awards a total of $30,000 to artists through one-night events that take place in six cities around the country. Local artists are invited to pitch ideas for an ArtPrize installation, and one artist at each event receives a $5,000 grant to realize their project.\n4. BOOST YOUR PROFESSIONAL PRACTICE\nArtPrize partners with Creative Many Michigan to provide professional development opportunities throughout the event, ranging from lectures and panels to more intimate discussions. ArtPrize presents Critical Discourse, a TV show with a live audience featuring artists, critics and curators about what\u2019s happening at ArtPrize and the art world. ArtPrize partners with the Avenue for the Arts to facilitate Break it Down, Make it Better, a series of events offering educational programming, discussions and professional development opportunities for artists, curators and venue coordinators. Through ArtPrize, artists are also eligible for a complimentary associate membership to Fractured Atlas, for assistance obtaining affordable insurance.\n5. YOU NEVER KNOW WHO\u2019LL SEE YOUR WORK\nArtists enjoy direct interaction with the audience that\u2019s rare at other exhibition opportunities. Work is seen by jurors, invited art world guests and media as well as hundreds of thousands of visitors. Attention is fleeting, but showing at ArtPrize can lead to new collaborative relationships, art sales, and new commissions.\n6. VISITORS BUY ART\nNot all artists seek to sell their work at ArtPrize, and the event is not structured like or intended to be an art fair. More than 20% of artists report making sales or receiving new commissions every year through their ArtPrize experience. ArtPrize lists which entries are for sale, allows interested buyers to send a message through an artist\u2019s artprize.org profile to inquire about purchases, and takes no commission from sales.\n7. WE\u2019LL FIND A PLACE FOR YOU TO STAY\nMany artists travel to ArtPrize from far away, and the cost of lodging can be a challenge. To help with this, ArtPrize works to source temporary housing for visiting artists. Over the years, this program has saved artists a lot of money and has formed lasting friendships between artists and their hosts.\n8. THERE ARE PARTIES, A PLACE TO RELAX AND OTHER PERKS\nDuring ArtPrize artists are special guests, so the ArtPrize team throws a huge artist party in their honor. Each artist gets a gift bag with an event guide and other goodies, as well as an artist badge. The badge comes with several perks such as access to the ArtPrize Clubhouse throughout the event, where guests can relax, connect, and enjoy a complimentary coffee bar, light snacks throughout the day and an evening happy hour.\nInterested in participating in ArtPrize?

        "raw_content": "We believe one of the most devastating things to lose is hope. As the author of Hebrews writes, \u201cFaith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things unseen (Hebrews 11:1).\u201d Our culture has revealed that it is entirely possible to create a generation of believers who are \u201cfaithful\u201d and \u201cobedient\u201d but are numb on the inside because they have lost hope.\nOne of our strongest desires is to come into an event to serve, encourage, and love everyone that God brings us in front of. We take this ministry very seriously and want to make the impact as effective as possible while performing it in an orderly fashion.\nWe act in faith because we believe heavily in the power of prayer. Our time together should encourage believers regardless of how long they have been saved while also welcoming newcomers into the family of God. This is not just an outreach to the lost, but also a line of encouragement to the current believer.\nIn addition to prepping material for your event, we spend at least 45 minutes before the event preparing our hearts and minds, as well as praying for the audience. It is critical that this time is off limits to the general public and protected.\nAlthough we can adjust and fit into a variety of settings, we generally ask for a stage time of at least 30 minutes for preaching and will not exceed 45 minutes.\nUpon request we can also bring additional intercessors with us to help pray for people, and we are also more than willing to include any members of the church/event staff who would like to be on the prayer team.\nIt is very important that our team creates an atmosphere of approachability so we can minister to all walks of life, while at the same time maintaining a professional tone. Because we spend so much one-on-one time with audience members, we ask that accomodations are made that will afford us privacy to relax after the event.\nBecause we are a traveling ministry we do require that our traveling expenses be met. Due to the variety of events we would love to discuss whether an additional honorarium or love offering will be required depending on the situation. These questions can be answered by contacting us at (218-330-0326).\nWhat type of events can I book Awakening Hope Ministries for?\nWe have ministered at a wide variety of events including; Small Group home meetings, Sunday/Wednesday Church services, Youth Group, Camps, Conferences, Music Festivals, Tent Revivals & Fundraising events. Please contact us with your event idea, we would be honored to be apart of your event.\nHow much does it cost to bring Awakening Hope Ministries to my event?\nPlease contact us with your event needs and we will quote you the appropriate rate based on what type of event you would like to book!\nWe would be thrilled to work with you to create a budget that works for everyone!\nWhat does an ideal Awakening Hope event look like?\nWorship; whether you provide the worship team or we bring one along we love to have a time to honor the Lord through worship.\nPreaching; allow up to 45minutes for Dean or Cassie to share a passionate message based on the Word of God.\nMinistry; One of our favorite things is to pray for people one-on-one and we will stay as long as it takes to see this happen and often will have a team of people ready to pray and minister the love of God to people as they come to the altar.\nWhat is 'The Awakening' ? Can I book this in my city?\n\u2018The Awakening\u2018 is an event produced by Awakening Hope Ministries on your date, in your city, with your friends and family, but let us do the work of producing the event! You provide the location and invite everyone you know. We will take care of the rest! We would bring the lights, sound system, worship team, prayer team & everything we would normally include in an Awakening Hope event! This is offered at a set price based on location, cost of travel & expenses. Please contact us for more information and details.\nawakeninghopeWorking With Us 09.08.2014",

        "title": "Javier Baez is Beginning to Grow Into an All-Star | Baseball Essential",
        "raw_content": "Javier Baez is Beginning to Grow Into an All-Star\nChicago Cubs, Statistics\nJavier Baez was selected ninth overall by the Chicago Cubs in the 2011 Major League Baseball draft. At just 18 years old, the Cubs knew Baez would not be a factor to crack the major league roster for some time. Instead, the front office had an eye toward the future after the 2011 Cubs lost 91 games and finished fifth in the National League Central.\nOver the three seasons that followed, Baez tore up the minors, posting a .543 slugging percentage in 2012 over two different levels. That same season, the 19-year-old Baez clubbed 16 home runs while stealing 24 bases. Coming off a solid 2012 campaign, Baez\u2019s first full professional season, the young middle-infielder set the minors on fire in 2013. In 130 games between High-A and Double-A, Baez slashed .282/.341/.578 with 37 home runs and 111 RBIs. Along with that, Baez stole 20 bases and logged 34 doubles.\nDespite Baez\u2019s early success in professional baseball, a troubling trend starting taking shape. During the 2012 season, Baez struck out an average of 22.4 percent of the time between two different Single-A levels. While that is not terrible for a kid right out of high school, Baez\u2019s walk rate of 4.8 percent was no doubt concerning for the Cubs. In 2013, when Baez was putting up huge offensive numbers, he was also putting up large strikeout totals. Over his 130 games, Baez struck out 147 times or almost 26 percent of the time while walking just seven percent of the time.\nBaez Breaks Into the Majors\nFollowing his monster 2013 campaign, Chicago was ready for the 21-year-old to make his major league debut. On August 5, 2014, Cubs fans got their wish as Baez made his big league debut against the Colorado Rockies. Baez got his first major league hit and home run out of the way in the same game, going 1-6 at the plate.\nIn 2014, Baez appeared in 52 games and racked up 229 plate appearances. Over the course of that time, the youngster would post some gaudy strikeout numbers that would make a Cubs fan cringe to this day. In 213 at-bats, Baez struck out 95 times compared to just 15 walks. Those numbers equate to a 6.6 percent walk rate and a sky-high 41.5 percent strikeout rate.\nDynamic infielder Javier Baez is working on another element of his game: plate discipline. With this, the Cub can be a solidified star.Click To Tweet\nAs a result of Addison Russell making his major league debut and Starlin Castro still being on the North Side, there was not much room for Baez in 2015. For that reason, Baez appeared in just 28 games (16 starts) and logged 80 plate appearances. Even though Baez did not get much playing time in the majors, he made the most of his situation in the minors. Across 74 minor league games in 2015, Baez slashed .328/.391/.526 with 13 home runs and 62 RBIs. Still, Baez\u2019s strikeout problem plagued him as he struck out more than 24 percent of the time while walking less than seven percent of the time.\nEven with his elevated strikeout rate, Baez did enough in 2015 to remain relevant and earn playing time at the major league level in 2016. With newly acquired Ben Zobrist the primary second baseman in 2016 and Addison Russell holding down shortstop, Baez started just 97 games in 2016. Despite that, Baez appeared in 142 games. After posting a 30 percent strikeout rate in his short major league stint in 2015, Baez lowered that number to 24 percent in 2016. Still at the forefront of his problems was his ability to draw walks at a consistent rate. In 2016, Baez\u2019s walk rate dipped to just 3.3 percent as he walked 15 times the entire season.\nAfter a postseason in which Baez played well enough to win co-Most Valuable Players honors in the National League Championship Series and help lead the Cubs to a World Series title, fans were ready for a break-out campaign from the youngster. What fans got instead was slight improvement from Baez. Over 145 games, Baez walked just 30 times, setting a career-high but registering at just 5.9 percent. That mark was the 25th lowest in the majors while his 28.3 percent strikeout rate was 13th-highest. Along with Baez\u2019s strikeout rate, his slugging percentage jumped in 2017, increasing more than 50 points from 2016. That allowed Baez to generate 23 home runs and a 101 OPS+.\nBaez Seems to be Getting the Hang of Things\nThe 2018 season is not even a month old. However, if you are a fan of the Cubs you have to be excited about what Javy Baez is doing. On April 10 and 11, the Cubs first two home games of the season, Baez launched a total of four home runs into the bleachers. That was the first time a Cubs player had hit two home runs in back-to-back games since 2008.\nThose four home runs were icing on the cake so far for Baez. Looking at the numbers, it seems as though \u201cEl Mago\u201d is starting to put things together at the plate. Even though Baez is hitting just .191, he is sporting a .574 slugging percentage and 120 wRC+. In addition, Baez is walking more and striking out less than in previous seasons. In just 55 plate appearances thus far, Baez has walked six times and struck out 13 times. That equals a 10.9 percent walk rate, almost double 2017\u2019s percentage and more than triple 2016\u2019s percentage. Along with that, the numbers tell us Baez is starting to learn patience at the plate.\nLast season, Baez swung at 45.1 percent of pitches outside of the strike zone and 72.6 percent of pitches inside the zone. This season, both of those numbers are trending in the right direction. Right now, Baez is swinging at 43.8 percent of non-strike pitches, a 1.3 percent decrease. At the same time, Baez is swinging at 82.9 percent of pitches inside the strike zone. That number is up more than ten percent from 2017.\nEven though Baez is swinging at fewer pitches outside of the zone, when he does swing at those pitches he is making more contact. Last season, Baez made contact with 52.7 percent of pitches swung at outside of the zone. This season, that number is up to 62.3 percent, a 9.6 percent increase.\nThis season will mark the fifth season that Baez has been in the majors. Over those seasons, fans of the Cubs have grown use to seeing Baez strike out in key situations, often swinging at a pitch in the dirt or one above his head. However, so far in 2018, there have been glimpses of hope that Baez is starting to mature at the plate. There was a perfect example during the Cubs 14-10 win against the Atlanta Braves on Saturday.\nWith the Cubs down three runs in the eighth inning, Baez stepped to the plate against Braves\u2019 pitcher Jose Ramirez. After getting down 0-1, Baez took two pitches, including a tough change-up to make the count 2-1. Following a foul-ball on a change-up right down the middle, Baez took a fastball off the plate away to run the count full. After fouling off another fastball, Baez got a four-seamer low and away and lined it into the left-center field gap, plating three runs and tying the game.\nBy showing patience in that situation and waiting until he got his pitch, Baez showed a sliver of the player he can be moving forward and the player he has been so far this season. While it is still early in the season, it is nice to see Baez be patient at the plate. If the 25-year-old Baez can learn to work counts and wait until he gets his pitch, he will no doubt be an All-Star this season and many seasons moving forward.\nChicago CubsJavier BaezMLBnlstats\nThe Boston Red Sox Are Being Grossly Underrated\nUnsigned Free Agent Brandon Phillips Still Has Value",

        "raw_content": "Home > Latest News > Medical News Today: The lowdown on 'legal' highs\nMedical News Today: The lowdown on 'legal' highs\nIn the last few years, hundreds of new, synthetic recreational \u201cdesigner drugs\u201d have come onto the market \u2013 the legal market \u2013 and nobody really knows very much about them.\nPretty pills\u2026but do you know what is in them?\nThey come in kid-friendly packets with kid-friendly names, like \u201cScooby Doo,\u201d and are available online, in \u201chead\u201d shops and even in gas stations and convenience stores. They are cheap, legal and they can be deadly.\nAlso known as \u201cclub drugs,\u201d MDAT, Eric 3, dimethocaine, bath salts, new psychoactive substances (NPS), 5-IAI and silver bullet are analogs of established illegal drugs.\nThey are designed to produce the same effects as cocaine, ecstasy and the like, but their chemical structure is sufficiently changed to evade prohibition under the Controlled Substances Act.\nLike the drugs that they mimic, so-called legal highs can be classified as depressants, stimulants or hallucinogens.\nSince they are untested and cannot be approved as safe, the new drugs are marketed as bath salts, research chemicals or plant food, and they carry labels like \u201cnot for human consumption\u201d or \u201cfor novelty use only.\u201d\nNot being sold for human consumption means they have not been tested for that purpose. Their effects are unknown, and the manufacturers can change the contents without warning.\nWhat is in that bright little packet, and what it will do to you, is a mystery.\nIt may contain substances that are, in fact, illegal.\nOr, it may just be downright dangerous.\nEven a list of the chemical ingredients on the package does not guarantee that those are the contents, as forensic testing has shown. What you see may not be what you get, and what you get may be more than you bargained for.\nPowders, pills and crystals\nThe drugs usually come as powders, pills or capsules, ranging in color from white to brown to yellow, and from flour-like powder to crystals in texture. Pills and capsules come in a range of shapes, sizes and colors, sometimes stamped with cute little pictures.\nLegal highs often come as powders or pills.\nSynthetic cannabinoids, such as \u201cK2\u201d and \u201cspice,\u201d consist of an unspecified mixture of plant matter sprayed with chemical grade synthetic cannabinoids. The chemicals can be in powder form or dissolved in solvents, such as acetone. It is often marketed as \u201cherbal incense.\u201d\nSynthetic cathinones, known on the street as \u201csalts\u201d or \u201cbath salts,\u201d are stimulants, related to amphetamine or \u201cspeed.\u201d Products such as \u201cMolly\u201d (short for molecule), replicate methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) or ecstasy. They often consist of methylenedioxypyrovalerone (MDPV), mephedrone and methylone.\nSynthetic opioids, such as fentanyl, are particularly dangerous. Used as a strong pain killer for cancer patients, fentanyl and its relatives have been implicated in a number of drug deaths in the US.\nStreet names for synthetic opioids include Apache, China Girl, China White, Dance Fever, Friend, Goodfella, Jackpot, Murder 8, TNT, Tango and Cash. Fentanyl can originate from legal prescriptions, but street fentanyl may be an illegal copycat with altered chemical structure and properties. You cannot be sure what you will get.\nJust shop online: discount available\nSynthetic drugs are easily and openly available on the Internet, complete with coupons, vouchers, discount codes and clearance sales.\n\u201cSimon the Sorcerer,\u201d creator of the website, Simon\u2019s Legal Highs, gives this advice:\n\u201cWhen you hear the word \u2018drug,\u2019 \u2018highs\u2019 [or] \u2018narcotics,\u2019 you think of something illegal, although it should not necessarily be the case. There are plenty of legal drugs out there. Just take a look at this list of the best legal drugs to change your mind. Many of them are easily available in your grocery store, online or you can pick them yourself if it\u2019s the right season.\u201d\nSimon is careful to caution: \u201cWarning: I do not advocate consumption of legal highs. They can have adverse side effects and if you are allergic, or if you overdose, you might even die.\u201d\nOr, as teen advice site, Vice, puts it: \u201cRemember: if you smoke synthetic cannabis, and your blood turns into sulfuric acid, and your organs melt, the company isn\u2019t responsible. It said right on the package that it wasn\u2019t for human consumption!\u201d\nSimon\u2019s site includes a handy blacklist of outlets selling fake drugs that have no effect.\nEffects: from out-of-body experience to coma\nA 26-year old mother, Lucy Simms, died in 2013 after taking \u201cBenzo Fury,\u201d also known as ABP. The packet, labelled \u201cchemical research pellets,\u201d was purchased on the Internet.\nFast facts about illicit drugs\nIn 2015, 48.9% of 12th graders had used illicit drugs at some time in their lives\nFrom 2001-2014, the US saw a 2.8-fold rise in overdose-related deaths\nFrom 2000-2014, nearly half a million Americans died from a drug overdose.\nLearn more about addiction\nIn the journal Lucy kept of her experiments with different drugs, she noted, \u201cMy heart is going to attack.\u201d Days after she died of high blood pressure, raised heart rate and hyperthermia, the drug was banned in the UK. She did it \u201cfor the buzz.\u201d\nIn 2015, the mother of Owain Vaughan, aged 14 years, was called to the Emergency Room where she found her son having fits, with low blood pressure, vomiting violently, his elbow fractured and burst blood vessels in his face.\nHe had taken something his friends gave him. He \u201cthought it would be safe because it was legal and [\u2026] he\u2019d never taken drugs before.\u201d\nPeople use psychoactive drugs, \u201clegal\u201d or illegal, for the stimulant, sedative or hallucinogenic effects. In some cases, they hope to find an \u201cout-of-body experience.\u201d\nSince there is no way of knowing what a \u201cnew drug\u201d contains, snorting, smoking or swallowing one is a risky business.\nOn the next page, we look at the effects of different synthetic drugs, why people use them and what the law says.\nPrevious NG ONYEUKWU ALBUM RELOADED OUT VIDEO JINGLE :Official New NIGERIA EVENT Naija Hits Music Video Song,\nNext Turing Robotics Drops Android And Sets Up Shop In Finland Amid Global Security Concerns",

        "raw_content": "The Long View 2006-03-28: Social War; 8 x 8 is 64\nJohn Reilly suggests here that the modern transition to Empire will be less grim than the Roman one, because modernity really is more humane than antiquity. I hope he's right.\nSocial War; 8 x 8 is 64\nPaul McCartney turns 64 on June 18, according to AARP Magazine, the journal of the American Association of Retired Persons, which has an interest in following these things. McCartney was, famously, a member of the Beatles. The Beatles were a noted rock-and-roll ensemble of the 1960s and '70s. The birthday is significant because he wrote a song that appeared in 1967 on the album Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band: \"When I'm Sixty-Four.\" A ballad rather than rock, that song is still playing in the minds of tens of millions of people who listened to the radio in that era.\nThe Beatles are substantially older than I am, but once again I get the disorienting feeling that the future has arrived. The model of the future as a receding horizon is less and less credible to me.\nSpeaking of the arrival of the future, Joseph Bottum at First Things notes with foreboding that protestors have filled the streets of France, once again:\nThis time it was students complaining about a law that would have established a two-year trial period in which employers could try out the novel idea that their new employees were not guaranteed perpetual employment.\nBe that as it may:\nA riot really is a riot, after all, and deep in the Western psyche these days, there is something that wants a riot, that goes out seeking an excuse. There is something in the air now that hungers for the cleansing fire, and the purity of destruction, and the certainty that is loss of self.\nTo put the matter in theological terms:\nSomething will always function as the apocalypse, in one way or another; if a culture has dismissed the eschatological idea that a final judgment really does wait, they will eventually start to build their own eschatology. \u201cApocalypse Now,\u201d as someone in our time put it. Or \u201cBest past all prizing is never to have been,\u201d as someone else phrased it, long ago.\nI would not trade America's immigration problem for Europe's, but that does not mean that we might not be in for a rough patch, as this bulletin from a comparable period of the Late Roman Republic suggests:\nThe Social War: In 91 BC the moderate members of the senate allied themselves with Livius Drusus (the son of that Drusus who had been used to undermine Gaius Gracchus' popularity in 122 BC) and aided him in his election campaign. If the honesty of the father is open to doubt, that of the son is not. As tribune he proposed to add to the senate an equal number of equestrians, and to extend Roman citizenship to all Italians and to grant the poorer of the current citizens new schemes for colonization and a further cheapening of the corn prices, at the expense of the state. [T]he people, the senators and the knights all felt that they would be conceding too many of their rights for too little. Drusus was assassinated.\nDespite his eventually loss of popularity his supporters had stood by Drusus loyally. The opposition Tribune of the People, Q. Varius, now carried a bill declaring that to have supported the ideas of Drusus was treason. The reaction by Drusus' supporters was violence.\nAll resident Roman citizens were killed by an enraged mob at Asculum, in central Italy. Worse still, the 'allies' (socii)of Rome in Italy, the Marsi, Paeligni, Samnites, Lucanians, Apulians all broke into open revolt. The 'allies' had not planned any such rising, far more it was a spontaneous outburst of anger against Rome. But that meant they were unprepared for a fight. Hastily they formed formed a federation. A number of towns fell into their hands at the outset, and they defeated a consular army. But alas, Marius took led an army into battle and defeated them. Though he didn't - perhaps deliberately - crush them.\nThe 'allies' had a strong party of sympathizers in the senate. And these senators in 89 BC managed to win over several of the 'allies' by a new law (the Julian Law - lex Iulia) by which Roman citizenship was granted to 'all who had remained loyal to Rome (but this most likely also included those who laid down their arms against Rome). But some of the rebels, especially the Samnites, only fought the harder. Though under the leadership of Sulla and Pompeius Strabo the rebels were reduced on battlefield until they held out only in a few Samnite and Lucanian strongholds.\nWas the city of Asculum in particular dealt with severely for the atrocity committed there, the senate tried to bring an end to the fighting [by granting citizenship] to all who laid down their arms within sixty days (lex Plautia-Papiria).\nThe law succeeded and by the beginning of 88 BC the Social War was at an end, other than for a few besieged strongholds.\nNote that the year 88 BC was also the year when Mithridates VI ordered a massacre of all Romans in the east. 100,000 people were killed. The Beginning of the Mithridatic War was, of course, the also about the time the Roman Civil War between Marius and Sulla broke out.\nAs I said, a bad patch, but do not expect these things to play out in quite the same way. As Amaury de Riencourt pointed out, modernity really is more humane than antiquity. Of course, since there are many more people in modernity than in antiquity, the absolute casualty figures tend to be higher.\nJust because the future is not infinitely distant, that does not mean some parts of it have not turned out to be unexpectedly far away. Consider, for instance, this proposal for stratospheric Resorts, essentially airships that take their time about where they are going. I suppose this might be amusing, except that a resort that was really in the stratosphere would have a problem with radiation from space.\nI recently learned that what killed the airship was not safety but the economics of staffing them.

        "raw_content": "De Schoolbrug \u2013 From chaos to zen in the classroom\nAn in-school guidance route where teachers, classes and parents work together as equal partners to prevent school drop-outs.\nThe challenge of young people dropping out of school. it is important as these young people then often are excluded of the labour market.\nFirst impact is that teachers get more expertise in dealing with young people at risk of school drop-out. Young people are getting more motivated about their future and discover their talents. Parents learn how to better interact with their kids who are facing challenges at school. Second impact is that we contribute to the fact that young people actually take part in society and don't feel excluded and/or don't are unemployed. The first impact is assessed through written questionnaires filled in by teachers, through individual conversations with the youngsters and through informal exchanges with parents. Within the organization itself there is a working group that works on evaluating the project as a whole. Finally the organization keeps track of the youngsters who have followed the programmes.\nTeachers, classes and parents work together as equal partners to prevent school drop-outs (during the preparation, implementation and aftercare). Preventive work is done within the school, and in that way the project can be distinguished from all other external time-out projects outside the school. Another innovative character is that the organization provides a specific tool kit for teachers to better address children/young people at risk of school drop-out.\nhttp://www.deschoolbrug.be",

        "raw_content": "She \u2018lights up\u2019 when she sees him.\nPhoto Credit: arileu via Flickr cc, resized and cropped.\nMary was referred to the Neighbourhood Care Scheme by Social Services when she was 68. She had been knocked down by a car when crossing the road at the Lewes Road gyratory, and had lost her confidence about going out. She wanted someone to accompany her to the London Road shops. That was in 2000. We found a volunteer for her that year. It was not until 2003, however, after she had moved into sheltered accommodation, that we introduced her to John. Here\u2019s what he wrote about his volunteering earlier this year:\n\u201cI started volunteering with the NCS, I\u2019d guess about 10 years ago \u2013 and was put in touch with a lady who lived near me, in sheltered accommodation. She wanted someone to go shopping with her, and this I did \u2013 for a couple of hours each week for quite a few years. I found her a very amiable, cheerful person; quite scatty (the stamps she collected once blew out of the window, and often littered the floor). She played the violin and enjoyed drawing; and was very easy to get on with. In spite of her scattiness she had a good memory too, until one day quite suddenly it failed and she began turning up at shops to meet me on the wrong day, taking taxis without her money, and it was soon apparent she was becoming unable to look after herself. She went into a home (a good one) where she still is today. I still visit her, approximately once a week. She can just about remember my name (sometimes I have to remind her) \u2013 but she is quite cheerful, and still fun to talk to.\n\u201cI am glad of the opportunity to meet her (and another lady at the same accommodation who I also shopped for, for a while). I feel it has been worthwhile, not only for her but for me. The NCS is a good organisation who were very helpful to me when the lady\u2019s memory was failing and I found it difficult to get official bodies to take an interest. They advised, and emailed social services on her behalf. They do a good job; fostering community spirit, matching people up who may be able to help each other.\u201d\nLast month, we got in touch with Mary\u2019s care home to see how she was getting on. The staff told us that the John\u2019s visits are going really well. She \u2018lights up\u2019 when she sees him. He is very patient with her, and they look at her stamps together. He is now Mary\u2019s only visitor, so makes a big difference.",

But, the truth is, standups can greatly benefit from infusing a few principles of improv into their act.

        "raw_content": "New: List of top Product Listing Ad advertisers on Google\nWho are the top 20 advertisers using Google's Product Listing Ads (PLAs)? AdGooroo has released a list of the Top 20 Google PLA advertisers by impression, a list on which Walmart sits at the top but Amazon is way down.\nAdGooroo estimates more than 4 billion PLAs were displayed on U.S. AdWords from March to May 2013, the period of analysis, or 5.9% of the total number of AdWords PPC ad impressions (71.7 billion PLAs + text ads) in that period.\nWith 408 million PLA impressions, representing 129,381 unique products with 262,588 unique product listing ads, Walmart topped the list. Second on the list, with considerably less impressions (187 million) spread across a huge number of unique ads (658,333) and products (479,855), is eBay.\nMeanwhile, Amazon appears at number 75 on the list, despite being the biggest paid search advertiser. According to AdGooroo, this suggests the firm \"remains more focused on the traditional PPC text ad format rather than devoting time and attention to the new PLA format\".\nNot surprisingly, it was the Mass Retailers category that generated the most PLA impressions (1.22 billion), the next closest category being Consumer Electronics (400 million). However, in terms of PLAs as a percentage of total AdWords impressions, the Auctions & Classifieds category leads with 33.8% compared with 17% for Mass Retailers.\nThe full Top 20 can be viewed at AdGooroo.\nTags: advertisers, AdWords, paid search spending, PLA, search advertising\nHere's a tip, especially for local businesses - it's called day parting. As in, you schedule your ads only to appear during business hours of the day. If you follow customer trends in clicks and conversions by the hour of the day, you'll notice the peak hours. You can bully out your competitors on bids by focusing on certain times of the day. Make sure you are constantly optimizing based on these trends. You don't want to miss your customers, but if you're on a tighter budget, just wait for 'the right moment' of the day and bust out the cannons to hit your prospects when they want you most. I have it all managed for me, so no sweat.

Jay put together a series of workouts to change up my routine and target specific areas and muscle groups. Additionally he assigned physical and nutritional goals to keep me on track. Not only has this change been fun and challenging, but I\u2019ve also gained strength and increased tone. Jay is dedicated to his training. He constantly checks on my progress and is always pushing me to the next level. - Michelle\nLet me begin by saying, you will not be able to find a more efficient use of your money, than with Jason.\nHe's dedicated, he's motivated, and he's no bull****. Plain and simple, his functional fitness training mindset is the best use of your time as well as his. In 45 minutes, you will find yourself not only gaining physical advantages, but preparing yourself mentally for a lifelong goal of wellness (mind, body, nutrition, etc). In my experience, personal trainers all too often force-feed their clients that their routine is tailored specifically for them and it's a ten week program and you have to pay this and that, blah blah blah. Jason prepares you with each and every session to take control of your own fitness, and learn the principles needed to become the you that you have in mind.\nIn all, if you are on the fence about training, just call Jason and discuss your goals and ideas, it's free and he encourages it! No ego, no high pressure sales, he is genuinely interested in helping you improve you! Don't waste your money elsewhere, this is the easiest first step you can take!\nI began training with Jason in 2009, and he has given me all the tools to live the life I wanted. Now, I call Jason from time to time to run ideas by him, and pick his brain about trends and techniques, and he still is as interested in my health as he was the day we started!\nJason takes a personal approach to each client. As someone with Rheumatoid Arthritis, my energy level varies. Jason assess my condition prior to each workout & adjusts it accordingly. He never lets me give up on myself & is truly a great trainer & coach. - Kimberly\n6 Weeks ago I restarted my fitness activity with a great guy and trainer.(Jason) I have a goal and now on my second session with him. He pushes me to the limit every session and is very flexible to my crazy schedule. I will be working with this amazing trainer for some time. - Chris\nOf all the fitness places I've walked out of after a workout, Blue Chip Strength, Conditioning & Fitness had me beat the most. My best results were from training here! - Jennifer C\nJason is personable and friendly with a lot of knowledge. I've been an athlete my entire life yet Jason can still challenge me every session. When under his guidance, I never plateau. - Christie M\nLove Jason best trainer ever! - Elaine G\nBest personal training I have ever had!. Focuses on physical and mental strength, and constant improvement. Whatever your goals are, you will reach them at blue chip! - Sarah T\nJay actually cares about the product he supplies, the people he trains and what happens with them. Pricing is fantastic too. Jason is a coach who coaches from the heart. He cares about what he does and who he does it for. He has my vote. - Dom\nI have been overweight most of my life, but now, in my mid-20's, I'm in the best shape I've ever been and it's absolutely thanks to Jason. When I started working out with Jason I couldn't do much- I had no clue how to work out, and it was such a chore to me. But Jason is extremely talented at what he does and he really helped me to enjoy working out as my \"me time\", which is a mentality I would have never achieved without his help. In fact, I followed him to his new facility after he left the previous facility he had trained me at because I knew he was the best!\nThe most enjoyable thing for me is the personal attention I get. Jason really takes the time to get to know each of the members and find a target or goal for them that keeps them interested in coming back, no matter what fitness level they are at. I actually feel guilty when I miss a BootCamp class! The classes are challenging, but tailored to everyone's needs. Although some days are challenging, it's definitely the easiest and most fun way to get a great workout in and see results. I have brought many friends to his classes and all of them have loved it and keep coming back!\nSince working out with Jason, I've been able to lose another 25lbs (almost 60lbs total) since I started working out 3 years ago. The training continues to challenge me so I am able to break through my plateaus and get in buff bride shape for my wedding next summer! :)\nThe best personal training I have experienced! Jason has a tremendous amount of knowledge in the fitness field and is able to create a workout plan specifically geared towards you. The passion put into each training session is very noticeable and I have seen incredible results in my own personal life while working with him. VERY highly recommended!! - Carly\nI knew I wanted to start going to the gym, but didn't think I would put in a good effort. That's when my daughter introduced me to Jason. He encourages me through every set of reps. I don't ever feel let down after a workout. Even when I'm slacking off, he makes me follow through. I was even motivated to be more active on my 'lazy' beach vacations. The only downside to my recommending that you workout w/Jason, is that he might not be available for me!! - Kathleen\nI'm way too undisciplined to really get a good workout on my own but fortunately I have the best trainer Jason! He pushes the most out of my workout and makes me do things I never thought I could. Plus, I feel great! I would recommend him to anyone who needs to get fit and stay healthy. - Heather\n\u200bWhen I first began training with Jason and the boot camps, I thought I was in \"relatively\" decent shape. Well, it didn't take but a few moments to realize I needed more help than I thought. I started doing outdoor camps in the fall of last year in the park and then moved to their indoor location in February of this year. I feel I've come a long way since February in particular. I've gained a lot of strength, flexibility and most importantly ... confidence. To be honest, I used to get nervous before each workout because they were hard (but fun) and I didn't think I could get through them. For those of you out there who are hesitant or think they cannot do it - you have to start somewhere and take one workout at a time. You'll be surprised how fast you gain strength and confidence in yourself.\nDon't wait another day to get started, of course it s going to be hard. But if it were that easy, everyone would be in shape. You have to set goals and challenges for yourself every day. What could possibly be more important than your physical and mental well-being!?!?! - Laura\nAt a time when I felt unmotivated and needed to set a goal for myself, I turned to Blue Chip services. I have always been an athlete and take pride in my endurance and strength. Even though I felt that I had pushed my body to it's limit through sports and running races, my trainer made me feel a different level of fitness that I longed for. I transformed my body into muscle physique and people would ask what I was training for. My answer was always, \"training for a better lifestyle\". Thank you Jason! - Rose\nIf you are looking for an amazing personal training experience, Jason is your guy! He is a genuine, professional guy who I can trust and I never feel uncomfortable with. He takes the time to investigate my personal training needs,GOALS, and past injuries in order to create just the work out I need. He is always so good at doing his very best to fit into my busy schedule. By incorporating my daily workout requests into a workout and always teaching me new things he keeps my workout fun and a time that I can look forward to. whether it's yoga, intervals, weight training, or kettles I leave feeling satisfied I had a great workout! - Abby\nI have been training with Jason since November, 2014. Let me start with this, I NEVER have liked going to a gym but knew I had to start. I have been to many gyms and never liked going until I met Jason. He is the BEST trainer! He tells you exactly how it is, in plain and simple language and he will push you to do things you never imagined possible but he also knows when to back off. He truly cares about you as a person and not just the text book training! Since training with Jason, I have been able to do things I never thought I would be able to do and for that I am truly grateful!! He is dedicated to helping you reach your goals and he is a great motivator. - Tina J\nI have been overweight my whole life. I finally broke the cycle in Sept of 2007 when I had gastric bypass surgery. The whole process is more than meets the eye, physically and mentally.\nIn April of this year, I got an e mail about boot camp. I laughed about it, and decided to try it. I have quit most fitness classes, had no motivation to do videos at home, and did not want to join a gym.\nThe 1st night, I trained with Jason, and cried when I got home. I had no idea I was that out of shape. I guess I thought since I lost that weight, I would be fine. He told me \"in 3 weeks you will see a difference\".\n\u200bThe physical changes have amazed me. The mental/ emotional changes are beyond words. I have a passion with fitness that I didn't even know existed. I crave the high that I get when I am done with my boot camp. I want to push my body to the limit every time I go..... instead of quit in the middle.\nI have been going through a transformation the past 3 years, and boot camp is completing the process, both physically and mentally.\nThank you! - Roberta\n\"My brother and I have been working out for over 15 years and these are the best workouts I've ever been through.\"\n\"My daughter was a participant in the volleyball training program. She has achieved all of her goals, gained 2 inches on her vertical jump, made varsity and somehow Jason talked her into eating breakfast! Aside from getting stronger and more fit, (btw, she loved the yoga!) she's now comfortable working out at school and much, much more confident.\"\nI started training with Jason around 4 years ago. When we met, I didn't know what to think or what to expect. I've never worked with a personal trainer or strength & conditioning coach before. But within 2 or 3 days we clicked and I've never second guessed the decision.\nHis training is as much mental, emotional and spiritual as it is physical. He has a unique ability to explain 'why we train' better than anyone. He taught me how to eat, run, and lift (workout) for my body type. He taught me what \"full go,\" really means. He taught me how to \"quiet the chatter,\" to lock in on the task at hand and regain focus in moments of chaos and confusion.\nI am better person today having gone through so much of my training with Jason. - Samantha\nI have been to all of the \"major\" yoga studios in the Cleveland eastside area, and this is by far my favorite studio, as it more intimate than any others. I especially enjoy this studio because it is just starting out, and there is no pressure to be at any level besides the one that you are comfortable with. The instructors are wonderful about making you feel like your practice is truly about you, and guiding you if you need help in a positive way. You can tell there is a genuine respect for everyone in the room, and it is a very calming environment. Doing yoga a few times a week can and WILL dramatically change you if you allow it to. Not only will you be getting in a great workout, you will have a clear mind. Whether you've been thinking about trying yoga, or have been practicing for years, I highly recommend Blue Chip Power Yoga.",

The representative will be holding a school sign, and will also be wearing the appropriate uniform. If you are under 12 years old and classed as an \u2018unaccompanied minor', you will be introduced to the school representative by a member of airline staff. Once you have met the representative from the school, you will be assisted with your luggage and taken to the transport (usually a coach or minibus), which will take you to your chosen institution. Many schools have more than one representative on the coach, who will travel with you to your school and will serve refreshments and snacks.\nIf my English isn't so good, will people be able to understand me?\nDon't worry about your level of English. All teachers at your chosen school will be professionals in their field and are there to help you improve your English. Most teachers will be native English speakers with a lot of experience in dealing with international students. You will make many friends of different nationalities who all have the same goal in mind - to improve and practise their English!\nWho can I see if I become unwell or upset during my stay?\nAll residential spring and summer schools are required by law to employ a qualified first-aider. This person, who should be available at the school 24 hours a day, will be able to help students who feel unwell or have suffered a minor injury. Many schools also have a registered nurse who is resident at the school. The nurse can help with more serious injuries and arrange hospital and doctor's appointments at short notice. The nurse is also a good person to speak to if you feel anxious about anything - for example, missing your family and friends, or any issues at the school during your stay.\nWhat will the accommodation be like at the school?\nMost schools have a varied style of accommodation, ranging from single and twin rooms with their own bathroom, to more traditional dormitories with up to six beds in the same room. When you make your reservation, you will have the opportunity to discuss the accommodation possibilities and select the one that is best for you.\nWhat is included in the cost of my course?\nMany programmes are \u2018all-inclusive', with everything from tuition, accommodation and food to social activities and excursions included in the cost of your stay. You will also be provided with an English course book or a syllabus, around which your lessons are based. Many schools also include the entrance fees to excursion destinations in the cost of your stay. If you are enrolled on an all-inclusive course, the only extra money you should need is some pocket money - about \u00a350 per week, for example.\nWhat should I bring with me to the school?\nWhen you make a reservation, your school should send you a detailed list of things to bring. When packing, remember that during the summer months of July and August it can get quite hot, with temperatures reaching 25\u00b0C and more. You will need clothes that you could play sport in, but you shouldn't need to bring a dictionary or phrase book, as most schools will provide these for you.\nFurther details of Our World English Schools' courses are available from: www.ourworldenglish.com",

Powell and Batt's emphasis on using simple spreadsheet models to gain business insight (which is, after all, the name of the game) is what makes this book stand head and shoulders above the rest. This clear and practical book deserves a place on the shelf of every business analyst.\"\n--Jonathan Koomey, PhD, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and Stanford University, author of Turning Numbers into Knowledge: Mastering the Art of Problem Solving\nMost business analysts are familiar with using spreadsheets to organize data and build routine models. However, analysts often struggle when faced with examining new and ill-structured problems. Modeling for Insight is a one-of-a-kind guide to building effective spreadsheet models and using them to generate insights. With its hands-on approach, this book provides readers with an effective modeling process and specific modeling tools to become a master modeler.\nThe authors provide a structured approach to problem-solving using four main steps: frame the problem, diagram the problem, build a model, and generate insights. Extensive examples, graduated in difficulty, help readers to internalize this modeling process, while also demonstrating the application of important modeling tools, including:\nIterative modeling\nThe real-world examples found in the book are drawn from a wide range of fields such as financial planning, insurance, pharmaceuticals, advertising, and manufacturing. Each chapter concludes with a discussion on how to use the insights drawn from these models to create an effective business presentation. Microsoft Office Excel and PowerPoint are used throughout the book, along with the add-ins Premium Solver, Crystal Ball, and Sensitivity Toolkit. Detailed appendices guide readers through the use of these software packages, and the spreadsheet models discussed in the book are available to download via the book's related Web site. Modeling for Insight is an ideal book for courses in engineering, operations research, and management science at the upper-undergraduate and graduate levels. It is also a valuable resource for consultants and business analysts who often use spreadsheets to better understand complex problems.",

        "title": "Reduced Empathy Following Traumatic Brain Injury | Brain Blogger",
        "raw_content": "Reduced Empathy Following Traumatic Brain Injury\nby Jared Tanner, PhD | September 24, 2008\nEmpathy is the ability and quality that allows humans to feel and understand what others are experiencing. It literally means \u201cwith [em-] suffering [-pathos]\u201d as in suffering along with someone else. Empathy is not just emotionally suffering; it is also cognitively understanding what another person is going through; walking in their shoes, per se. Empathy connects people with each other and helps bind societies together.\nIn one recent study in the Journal of the International Neuropsychological Society the authors found that 31% of normal adults exhibited low emotional empathy scores on the Balanced Emotional Empathy Scale (BEES). This number is not particularly surprising because it represents a fairly normal distribution of empathy scores (i.e., about 2/3 of people have average to high empathy scores). What is surprising is that among patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI), 61% had low scores on the BEES, meaning they had a lower ability to empathize with others. Further, the authors did not find a relationship between how severe the TBI was and ability to empathize. They also found no relationship between empathy scores and performance on neuropsychological tests. This again, supports the finding of no relationship between TBI severity and empathy score. Further, low empathy scores in TBI patients could not be predicted by scores on measures of emotion, such as the Beck Depression Inventory.\nThese results are interesting on a couple of levels. It appears that TBI, regardless of severity, disrupts the normal functioning of the brain such that there is a disruption of frontal and limbic areas and circuitry that are involved in empathy. This makes sense because the frontal lobes are commonly damaged in TBI. This partially explains why many TBI patients with frontal lobe injuries appear emotionally blunted or apathetic. Many TBI patients with frontal damage also have a harder time interacting appropriately with others. Thus TBI interrupts general social cognition.\nAnother interpretation is that those with low empathy to begin with are more likely to experience TBIs. This means that there could be personality or other differences that lead to risky behaviors that in turn result in TBIs. The authors did exclude TBI patients under the age of 22 (when brains and emotional regulation are still developing) to help reduce the number of TBIs resulting risky behaviors. However, without having pre- and post-TBI measures of empathy, this interpretation cannot be ruled out. In any case, researchers are finding more and more evidence that even mild traumatic brain injury can have varied and lasting effects on a person.\nRODGER LL. WOOD, CLAIRE WILLIAMS (2008).

A new study in the New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) reports that the negative effects of the obesity epidemic, if it continues, will virtually destroy the positive gains made by smoking cessation and prevention programs.\nThe authors of the NEJM study forecasted life expectancy and quality-adjusted life expectancy for a representative 18-year old, assuming that current trends in obesity and smoking continue. In most of the scenarios examined, the negative effects of overweight and obesity outweighed the positive effects of a decline in the rates of smoking. The average 18-year old today would gain 0.31 years of life expectancy owing to the decline in smoking; at the same time, he will lose more than 1 year owing to the rise in overweight and obesity. Overall, the authors concluded that the average 18-year old today would lose 0.71 years of life, or 0.91 quality-adjusted years, by the year 2020. If all adults in the United States became nonsmokers of healthy weight by 2020, the life expectancy of the average 18-year old would increase by almost 4 years, or more than 5 quality-adjusted years.\nThe increase in overweight and obesity has increased dramatically in the last 30 years, but the prevalence differs among gender, race, and age cohorts. The prevalence of obesity is approximately 35% among white men, black men, and white women, but is 55% among black women. The mean age of obese men and women is also rising, to 49 years among white and 44 years among blacks. The population of the United States is gaining years and pounds, and the disability and health care burden associated with an aging obese population are significant.\nEveryone knows smoking kills; nonsmokers live up to 10 years longer than smokers. However, smoking does not cause the disability that comes with overweight and obesity. While obesity does not lead to quite the same decrease in life expectancy \u2014 6 to 7 years on average, the quality of the life is significantly decreased compared to people of healthy weight. Overweight and obese people will spend 3 to 5 years of their life with significant disability owing to obesity-related conditions and have reduced functioning in their activities of daily living.\nStill, one study concluded that unhealthy living is unhealthy living, regardless of whether that living is related to smoking or obesity. People who make unhealthy lifestyle choices will have a lower life expectancy than healthy-living cohorts, even if they eliminate smoking and obesity. Other vices, as well as unmodifiable factors like race, gender, and age, contribute to life expectancy and quality of life.\nBoth smoking and obesity are unhealthy lifestyle choices and are risk factors for a large burden of disease. By the year 2020, smoking is expected to decline by 21%, but 45% of the population will be obese. Targeted medical and public health interventions to control the obesity epidemic are needed to reclaim the gains made in healthy living through smoking cessation and prevention programs.\nLubetkin, E., & Jia, H.

        "raw_content": "On the eve of the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia, today it was announced that North America (the U.S., Mexico and Canada) will host the 2026 FIFA World Cup, beating off competition from Morocco. Another victory for America! President Donald Trump was watching very closely from the White House. This will be the first time that the U.S.A. has hosted the FIFA World Cup since 1994, which was a fondly remembered tournament, which was also a huge success that helped to create a real buzz for the sport in the United States.\nThe inclusion of Canada and Mexico in the tournament comes at a time when Donald Trump intends to renegotiate NAFTA, something which the two neighbouring countries oppose. North America won the decision by a landslide vote of 134 to 65, against minnows Morocco, with a promise of $14 billion in revenue and the lack of construction needed in the U.S. with the 16 stadiums already in existence, being a deciding factor in the final count.\nThe last World Cup was held in the USA in 1994, the Rose Bowl stadium (pictured) Credit: trivela.uol.com.br\nYes, we\u2019re now entering into realms of football fever with the kick-off of the 2018 World Cup in Russia tomorrow, with the host nation against Saudi Arabia at 16:00pm (GMT). Thirty minutes prior, Robbie Williams will perform at the opening World Cup ceremony at the Moscow Luzhniki Stadium, which is a welcome surprise to bring in the world\u2019s biggest sporting event.\nRobbie Williams is a fan favourite with hits like \u201cAngels\u201d and he said regarding the gig, \u201cI\u2019m so happy and excited to be going back to Russia for such a unique performance. I\u2019ve done a lot in my career, and opening the FIFA World Cup to 80,000 football fans in the stadium and many millions all over the world is a boyhood dream.\u201d\nCould Robbie Williams opening the tournament be a good luck omen for England? Only time will tell, but for the 2026 World Cup, North America was chosen for its economic and logistical certainty, after big surprises in previous World Cup reveals, such as the corrupt and questionable choice of Qatar for the World Cup in 2022.\nHowever, there is some bad news, and that is that the World Cup in 2026 will feature 48 nations as opposed to 32 nations, with the US set to host 60 of the 80 games, leaving Canada and Mexico to host 10 matches each. We suppose the only good thing about a 48 nation World Cup tournament is that there will be even more football, even if teams like Uganda will qualify, before losing 10-0 to Germany. When the announcement was made for the 2026 World Cup, President Donald Trump tweeted from the White House.\nCredit: realDonaldTrump/Twitter\nMorocco didn\u2019t fare well in their World Cup bid because of the hazards involved, such as the 14 stadiums that needed building, plus $16 billion in new infrastructure in much needed development projects, in order to host the tournament. The choice of North America was a no brainer, with the veiled threat of America beforehand of potentially pulling out support for countries that opposed their World Cup bid.\nFIFA have been scrutinised for corruption over the past few years, with corruption scandals at the South Africa and Brazil World Cup, and so it was a safe bet to put power back into the hands of a joint tournament with the U.S.A, Mexico and Canada. FIFA President Gianni Infantino said that before today\u2019s vote, the FIFA bribery scandal had put the organisation on the brink back in 2016, but now, he said, \u201cTwo years later, FIFA is alive and well, full of joy and passion and with a vision for its future.\u201d\nThe new FIFA President, Gianni Infantino (pictured). Credit: The Independent\nGianni Infantino is also responsible for the terrible idea of a socialist style 48 nation World Cup, which should raise some eyebrows. It makes you wonder if referees will be taking bribes from countries in the qualification process, from countries that would never ever qualify for the tournament, eh? Hmmm\u2026\nHowever, this may also mean that the USA, Mexico and Canada will not have to qualify for their World Cup tournament in 2026 either, which will be welcome news for Canada, who rarely every make it there in the first place. So, at long last, the World Cup will be hosted by a nation that isn\u2019t afraid to jail corrupt sports leaders through undercover investigations. How refreshing!\nWell, we will definitely look forward to the 2026 World Cup in North America, but not too much, as by then we will all be old and grey, so let\u2019s enjoy tomorrow\u2019s commencement of the 2018 World Cup in Russia instead.\nFeatured Photo Credit: Qatar Day\nSports, Sports & Gaming 2018 FIFA World Cup Russia, 2018 World Cup, 2018 World Cup teams, 2022, 2022 Qatar World Cup, 2026 FIFA World Cup, 2026 World Cup, 2026 World Cup Moscow, 2026 World Cup North America, 48 nation World Cup tournament, america, Brazil World Cup, canada, Donald Trump, Donald Trump NAFTA, Donald Trump Twitter, Donald Trump World Cup 2026, FIFA bribery scandal, FIFA Corruption, FIFA President, FIFA President Gianni Infantino, FIFA World Cup 1994, FIFA World Cup 2018, FIFA World Cup 2026, FIFA World Cup Russia 2018, Germany, Gianni Infantino, latest World Cup news, Mexico, Morocco, Moscow, Moscow Luzhniki Stadium, NAFTA, North America, President Donald Trump, President Trump, Qatar, Qatar football, Qatar World Cup 2022 Corruption, robbie williams, Robbie Williams albums, Robbie Williams I\u2019m so happy and excited to be going back to Russia for such a unique performance, Robbie Williams music, Robbie Williams songs, Robbie Williams World Cup 2018, Russia vs Saudi Arabia, Russia vs Saudi Arabia 2018, Russia World Cup, Russia World Cup 2018, Soccer Canada, Soccer Mexico, Soccer USA, Socialism, Socialist, South Africa, South Africa World Cup, Trump, Uganda, United States, United States of America, USA, World Cup, World Cup 1994, World Cup 2018, World Cup 2018 England, World Cup 2018 Morocco, World Cup 2018 Russia, World Cup 2018 Saudi Arabia, World Cup 2026, World Cup 2026 48 nations, World Cup football, World Cup Host Bid, World Cup Host Bid 2026, World Cup news, World Cup soccer, World Cup tournament, World Cup USA\nPrevious Article\u2190 Tim Burton\u2019s \u2018Dumbo\u2019 Comes to Life with Live Action Trailer\nNext ArticleWorld Cup 2018 Kicks Off with Russia vs Saudi Arabia \u2192",

        "raw_content": "From his early days on the comedy stage to playing lovable football fanatic Hayden Fox on the long-running television sitcom Coach, Zeek Braverman on the television drama Parenthood to countless big screen roles, actor Craig T Nelson is as versatile as he is prolific.\nMovie audiences have been loving his work for decades in popular films spanning just about every genre: Poltergeist, Stir Crazy, All The Right Moves, Silkwood, The Devil\u2019s Advocate, The Family Stone and The Proposal. And it was his voice work in the 2004 megahit animated Disney Pixar film The Incredibles that introduced Nelson to a younger audience. His voice is readily recognisable as the voice of Mr Incredible, and as he tells it, the world stops spinning for a beat whenever a starstruck child hears him speak.\nNelson plays Mary Steenburgen\u2019s husband in the romantic comedy Book Club. He\u2019s also reprising his role as Mr Incredible in Incredibles 2, the long-awaited sequel to the 2004 original.\nOur conversation runs the gamut from overcoming the perils of aging in Hollywood, mid-life adventures, the secret to his long and happy marriage to Doria Cook-Nelson and the unique challenges of playing an animated icon for Disney Pixar.\nWith Book Club there are so many celebrated actors in one movie. What does an ensemble piece allow you to do as an actor that carrying a film or television show on your own doesn\u2019t allow for?\nThe opportunity to work with the different characters that are being played broadens what you can do as an actor. Oftentimes, the way people react differently to different people they meet \u2013 it\u2019s that same dynamic and it can be something of an adventure. In Book Club, most of my scenes are with Mary [Steenburgen]. There are only one or two scenes where I\u2019m with everyone, although I knew everybody. In this movie, although it\u2019s an ensemble cast, the focus was my interaction with Mary\u2019s character.\nWhat was your initial impression of the Book Club script when you first read it?\nOh, I loved it! It spoke to something I was familiar with; that whole process of aging. You think you\u2019re never going to get there, but eventually it just shows up and there it is. I thought the script was well thought out, cogent, specific, and each character was delineated. I wanted to do the movie right away after reading the script.\nThis movie addresses that mid-to-later-life slump that people can slide into without even realising it\u2019s happening. As you said, you wake up and it\u2019s just there. How do you think men experience this phase of life differently from women?\nI think we experience it in much the same way, although it depends upon societal pressures. Part of the confusion is the result of what society is demanding now, which is pretty much all youth-oriented. Cosmetically and pharmaceutically, you\u2019re supposed to be able to prolong your life, or at least the appearance of it. The reality is that you do age. Yes, we are living longer, but there\u2019s more pressure associated with it. I suppose it\u2019s how all of that manifests in each of us, which has to do with our own peculiar personality. That\u2019s the interesting part about it; how each one of us deals with it. Generally speaking, your libido drops, physically you\u2019re not as active and not able to do as much. All of that is pretty much the same in people, but few people address it psychologically. There\u2019s a lot of pressure to be young. But there is also a lot of pressure being old, and not to get any older. I think that is so screwed up.\nIn Book Club, your wife, played by Mary Steenburgen, is upset because she feels your marriage has fallen into a slump. Do you think marriage should be able to go through its natural ebbs and flows romantically, sexually and emotionally?\nIf you\u2019re married to your best friend, as I am, and I\u2019m married 34 years now, then you have to realise you\u2019re going to have ups and downs. You\u2019re physically going to change, emotionally you\u2019re going to change. You have to adapt and change, and be prepared for that stuff. That\u2019s also part of the adventure. It seems like just yesterday I was talking to older actors about aging. I was a young working actor, and they were all telling me how difficult it was for them and how they were approaching a period in their life where they felt they weren\u2019t working as much. I think they felt neglected and not as respected. I can remember a lot of guys talking about that. When it started happening to me, it was like, \u201cWhoa! Wait a minute here.\u201d But at least I have the tools. I think I was prepared for it to a certain degree.\nWith Grace and Frankie and Book Club, it seems that Hollywood is now gaining a little more respect for stories about mature people.\nI think this movie will help. It brings some awareness, which I think is good, but ageism has been prevalent in this business for a long time.\nThe Baby Boomer generation are such a huge segment of the population. They have tremendous spending power, and they want to see stories about themselves.\nRight, but as you see in television, for example, you\u2019ve got a specific demographic that\u2019s usually being targeted. I have always argued, even back when I was doing Coach [1989 to 1997], that it\u2019s not necessarily accurate. I agree that a lot of buying power rests in the hands of people who are approaching retirement, and in their forties and fifties. It\u2019s like with the glut of action movies we\u2019re getting and have had for a while. What is that? It\u2019s enough already. I would much rather see stories like Book Club, which I feel are specific, well-written and truthful. I\u2019m fine with animated movies about superheroes. Obviously, I don\u2019t have a problem with that. I don\u2019t have a problem with action films either, except that there is just so much of it, and what am I left with?\nYou began your career as a stand-up comedian, correct?\nBarry Levinson and I did stand-up [comedy] together for four years, and then another guy, Rudy DeLuca joined us. We wrote and performed comedy, and then we worked with Tim Conway, John Byner and Alan King. That\u2019s how I started.\nHow did you segue into film and television, and how does that early stand-up experience help you in the roles you play now?\nI was never really interested in doing stand-up comedy. Barry Levinson and I were in the Oxford Theatre together, which was a theatre group in LA. We got to talking and Barry said, \u201cWhy don\u2019t we do a stand-up act?\u201d I had never done that and never even thought of it, but we put an act together. We went out and auditioned and started doing clubs. It was an intro into the business, and I met so many incredible people during that time. It does give me a different perspective. Comedy helped me to enlarge and be better at what I did. Another important thing is that you just get better as you get older. You realise what you\u2019re doing more, and you don\u2019t make as many mistakes. I\u2019m so much more comfortable in a scene now than I ever was, because I know how to play it. Certainly, there are challenges, but your tool bag is filled up. There are so many experiences and so many people to draw on, and it\u2019s a wonderful place to be.\nThis is not your first time playing Mary Steenburgen\u2019s husband. You also played husband and wife in the 2009 movie, The Proposal, alongside Ryan Reynolds and Sandra Bullock. How was it playing her husband again? Was there a comfortable rapport already in place?\nShe\u2019s so much fun to work with. She\u2019s got this wonderful quirkiness to her that is so beautiful. It\u2019s also very challenging, because you need to stay on top of your game with her, as with all the actresses in this film. I\u2019ve worked with Diane [Keaton], I\u2019ve worked with Jane [Fonda], but I hadn\u2019t met Candice [Bergen] until this film, so that was neat. I look forward to continuing to work with Mary. There is an understanding between me and Mary. You\u2019re able to ask questions of each other or address problems in a scene together. There\u2019s no wandering around, trying to get to the truth of something.\nDo you recall a moment in your own life when you realised you weren\u2019t living your best life, or there were things still yet to be done?\nI\u2019ve had a number of them, and still they continue. One of the many things I felt the need to do was professional car racing, when I decided to go ahead and pursue it. Gradually I became better and better at it. It wasn\u2019t a death wish; it was a life wish. It was doing something that is very risky and challenging, but something I\u2019d always wanted to do and never had the opportunity before. And now I\u2019m going, \u201cWow, this is something I really enjoy!\u201d It requires an enormous amount of concentration and focus, which is another reason I really like it.\nHow does your wife Doria feel about your race car driving?\nIt was something that my wife suggested I do. She\u2019s very strong. She\u2019s a martial artist and she competes in Tai Chi Kwan all over the world in competitions. She said, \u201c[Car racing] is something you should try.\u201d And once I got into it, she encouraged me to continue doing it.\nLet\u2019s switch gears and discuss another movie you\u2019re in, Incredibles 2. Why the 14-year gap between the release of The Incredibles and Incredibles 2?\nI don\u2019t know for sure, but I can tell you that [Incredibles writer and director] Brad Bird was busy with other things. He wanted to do some live action projects and then he made Ratatouille right after The Incredibles. He was very busy in his career.\nIn the first movie, your character Mr Incredible is struggling with living life as a civilian. He\u2019s dying to be a superhero again and to use his powers. Holly Hunter\u2019s character, Elastigirl, wanted a normal, low-key family life. In Incredibles 2, it\u2019s reversed. She\u2019s out being a superhero and you\u2019re the stay-at-home dad. How does that go for Mr Incredible?\nHe doesn\u2019t quite understand it and is feeling rejected, like, \u201cWhy don\u2019t they want me out there?\u201d He now has to take a back seat and for him that\u2019s difficult. He makes the sacrifice for his wife. He\u2019s got a resentment going on, but as you watch him at home you get to know these kids in a way that\u2019s fun and interesting. And you get to see a guy have to adapt and get to know his children in a way that he hasn\u2019t. That was neat for me to play.\nWhen you\u2019re voicing an animated character like Mr Incredible, are you in the recording booth with any other cast members, or is it just you in there?\nYou\u2019re not with the other cast members. You\u2019re with Brad, who\u2019s in every session. He\u2019s directing what you\u2019re responding to, and you go off that. Usually we\u2019ll do a session every three weeks, for four hours at a time. Then they\u2019ll put that into rough animation, so you can see what you\u2019ve got. I\u2019ve only done one session with another actor, and it was with Samuel L Jackson, who plays Frozone.\nHow do you get into character?\nYou prepare ahead of time in the session, especially vocally because there are a lot of different ranges you have to get to. There are scenes when you\u2019re doing a lot of yelling and shouting. And it\u2019s a long and involved process that\u2019s different from regular acting.\nI\u2019m sure you\u2019ve watched the first movie with your grandchildren. What do they think of you playing Mr Incredible?\nThey don\u2019t relate the two. They still don\u2019t believe it. I have to do lines from the film so they can hear me do the voice, and then it\u2019s, \u201cOh yeah, that\u2019s him.\u201d\nWhen you\u2019re out, are you ever stopped by kids who know you\u2019re Mr Incredible?\nThe other day my older son was visiting, and somebody overheard me talking to him and they turned around and said, \u201cAre you Mr Incredible?!\u201d They\u2019ll recognise the voice, it\u2019s interesting. And then you have to convince this kid that you are! And you feel like an idiot trying to get a seven-year-old to believe you. They look at you with this wonder, yet at the same time disbelief. It gets confusing even for me.\nWhat will kids and families get to experience with Incredibles 2 that they didn\u2019t with the first movie?\nThe special effects are extraordinary. Since 2004, when the original movie was out, they\u2019ve developed a whole new range of different processes that have gone into this movie, including its colour enrichment. For me, the exciting thing about the second movie is that the character Jack Jack, the baby, really comes alive and that\u2019s going to be so much fun for people to see. What\u2019s so great about this movie is that it\u2019s a family deal. You can take your family to this movie and have a great time. And same with Book Club. They\u2019re two movies I\u2019m proud to let my family watch.\nBook Club and Incredibles 2 are out now.\nPrevious Post Burlesque Interview: Dita Von Teese \u2013 Fair Play, Copper, Or Von Teese Me, Please Me Next Post Film Interview: Ian Morgan \u2013 Good Mourning, Or Better Fortune\nOpinion: Before We Disappear: Chris Cornell \u2013 In Memoriam",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb india news \u00bb Sorry! No Muslims: Mumbai housing society refuses to sell flat to Muslim family, gets arrested\nSorry! No Muslims: Mumbai housing society refuses to sell flat to Muslim family, gets arrested\nAshwin Aghor | Updated on: 21 September 2016, 12:17 IST\nA housing society refused to sell a flat to a Muslim family. Here's what happened next\nIs Mumbai a hostile place for Muslims? Here's a story that might make you think so\nMumbai is a cosmopolitan city in the true sense. At least this was the perception the rest of the country had till a couple of years back. With people from a certain religious background, namely the Muslims, facing a tough time with getting houses to live in - the Mumbai dream is on the verge of becoming a nightmare.\nMumbai's ease was the reason why millions of people from every nook and corner of the country used to flock to the City of Dreams in search of fortune. Some made it, while some did not. But the city has given something to everyone. Though not everyone got what they wanted, it has not been a deterrence for hope.\nVikar Ahmed Khan, a native of Agra in Uttar Pradesh, too came to Mumbai with a dream to make a fortune in 2003. After reaching Mumbai he entered into the glass business and started doing fairly well for himself.\nHe has grown financially well over last 13 years. Khan currently stays at Vasai in Palghar district, with his wife and three children. As the children grew, Khan felt the need of a bigger house. He started searching for bigger houses and got one barely a few meters away from his current residence.\nKhan approached the owner of the house and completed the formalities last week. The deal was sealed and Khan needed No Objection Certificate (NOC) from the managing committee of the housing society.\nHe might have thought that he will lead a happier life once he shifted to Happy Jeevan Cooperative Housing Society. However, he got a shock of his life when the managing committee of the housing society refused to issue the NOC saying that the flat could not be sold to a Muslim.\nNo Muslims please!\nThe decision of the housing society was a major shock for Jignesh Patel, owner of the house who wanted to sell it to Khan. Patel, who was rather aggrieved by the decision of the managing committee, lodged a complaint with the sub-registrar of the housing societies and Vasai police.\nFollowing the complaint, an offence was registered under sections 295 (A) and 298 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) against 11 managing committee members. Nine out of 11 members were arrested on charges of hurting religious sentiments. After the arrest, the managing committee has agreed to issue the NOC to Khan. Those arrested have now been released on bail.\nThe managing committee denied the NOC saying that the other members objected to a non-vegetarian family. Interestingly, out of the 16 flats in the building, two are already owned by Muslims.\nOne of the firsts?\nThis is probably for the first time in that managing committee members of an appartment block were arrested on such discrimination.\nIt is learnt that since Khan had to apply for a housing loan to purchase the flat, he needed the NOC from the managing committee. Accordingly, Patel approached the managing committee seeking the NOC.\nBut instead of the NOC, he was handed a letter signed by residents of the housing society objecting to the deal, claiming that selling flat to a Muslim was not acceptable. Surprisingly, after the arrest, the managing committee has issued the NOC and apologised to Patel and Khan.\nAfter denying flats to non-vegetarian families, this is probably the sole incident of denying flat on the basis of religion.\n\"It was illegal on part of the managing committee to issue such a letter. It is not at all acceptable. Since my mother Kantaben owns the flat, the letter was addressed to her. The managing committee also kind of suggested that we sell the flat to someone else, preferably from within the community,\" Patel said.\nPatel claims that it is for the first time in the country that arrests were made for denying flat to a person on the basis of his religion. \"It was surprising that they objected to my deal despite the fact that already two flats in the society were owned by Muslims. I have nothing against the members, but at the same time, I cannot let them discriminate. This is for the first time in the country that those opposing the deal on religion basis were arrested,\" Patel said.\n\"When Khan approached me with the proposal to buy the flat for the expected price, I informed the society about it and also asked if anyone in the society was interested, could go for it. But no one came forward for many days and further delay would have resulted in the cancellation of deal with Khan as well. So I went ahead with the deal,\" Patel said.\nVikar Ahmed Khan said, \"A token amount of Rs 1 lakh was paid to Patel and I wanted the NOC for the housing loan. I preferred this flat since it is close to the place where I currently live and my children's school. Now that the members have agreed to issue the NOC, I will soon shift in the flat.\"\nmumbai muslim tenants NOC rent Vasai discrimination Ashwin Aghor\nAshwin Aghor @catchhindi\nTWEET THIS A housing society refused to sell a flat to a Muslim family.

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Aitutaki Trip Report\t\u00bb\n(Still) Rarotonga, Cook Islands.\nWell, we have gone to Aitutaki and come back. I must say that I did enjoy it, although after a few days it got a bit boring. There\u2019s only so much fun in the sun that a human being can handle\u2026and besides that there\u2019s not much more to do!\nSunny Beach Lodge turned out to be very nice; it wasn\u2019t posh or ultra-modern, but it was in full working order and CLEAN! I saw only a few spiders and the room we stayed in had its own gecko. He was so cute\u2026I named him\u201dDude\u201d because he was so small\nand adorable. Sometimes he would hide for a good part of the day and then show himself towards night-time. Othertimes I would see him in the morning when I would wake up and he would keep me company for an hour or so, and then disappear\u2026he stayed up on the ceiling (I don\u2019t think that he ever got within arm\u2019s reach).\nOne morning I woke up to find Dude in the kitchen, as usual, along with another thing\u2026at first I thought he might be a cockroach, but he was MUCH too small and dainty. As I\u2019ve said before, the roaches here are super-sized, and this thing was about the size of a Californian cockroach (maybe an inch or two?). However, I got up on a chair and took a closer look and decided that he wasn\u2019t a roach but maybe a pincher bug or beetle of some sort. Anyhow, I did not want him in the kitchen and so I ran into the living room area to get my steel-soled Rockports so that I could give him a good wack. When I got back, he was making a bee-line for Dude!!! I am NOT kidding. When I got back up on the chair he stopped (because he knew that I knew what he was up to) and at this point I couldn\u2019t reach him anymore. I got back down and put the shoe nearby so that as soon as he was within reach I could kill him. The second I got down he started running at Dude again! At this point, the little gecko (he was so cute) turned him tiny head towards the ugly old bug and just gave him a look\u2026he was quite helpless. I grabbed the chair again and got really close to them both and the bug stopped and turned around and went back higher towards the ceiling (away from both me and Dude). I was livid. I really cannot believe that he was about to attack him! And Dude is so small that he really could not fight him off\u2026.(a few days later I saw another Gecko in the house and he was a bigger size, not so delicate. He was also a weird skin-fleshy color that was a bit unsettling, but he was still cute). Casey woke up about ten minutes later and I complained to him about the bug and asked him to kill it\u2026it took a bit for the bug to come closer to us (and I warned Casey that the bug was wiley and might try to get away) but when he did Casey (Great White Hunter that he is) smashed him and then examined the remains (checking out the kill). Yuck.\nDude was safe. I took a picture of him with the zoom lense so when we are able to put up pictures on the site you will be able to see what he looks like.\nUm, yes, there are no dogs on Aitutaki, only a shocking amount of roosters/chickens and lambs and some cats and,of course, the ever-popular king-sized cockroach. We had been warned about the skeeters, but we didn\u2019t notice any more than on \u201cRaro.\u201d To be sure, I have been using an unhealthy amount of insect repellent and I wouldn\u2019t be surprised if I get foot cancer when I get older\u2026I had tons of bites on my feet from our stay up in the hills of Raro. The Backpackers place was nice but (after the rain) there were lots of mosquitoes and I am definitely a juicy meal to them\u2026Casey, too, got lots of bites. My feet have little skeeter-bite marks on them. They are recovering, but slowly. However, I am now very militant about spraying my exposed parts with DEET! I just can\u2019t get any more bites. Raro has been home to dengue fever and so they warn that you should \u201ctake care\u201d not to get bites! There isn\u2019t an outbreak right now, but they had a major one in 1997 and still have a warning up at the airport on how to prevent it.\nWe are both really brown. We did this lovely lagoon tour on Tuesday and we spent hours and hours in the sun and Casey got burned, and I got very, very toasty. I actually have a tan line from my swim suit (people who know me will know how surprising this is). We stayed inside most of the day on Wednesday but on Thursday went swimming again, and on Saturday took our rented bikes half way around the island to another beach (by the Pearl Resort) and went swimming again, and again added to our darkness. Casey looks very golden and the hairs on his arms are turning blond.\nOkay, I will stop for now and let Casey write (we can\u2019t log in at the same time). We are now staying at the Kii Kii Motel (about a twnety minute walk out of Avarua) and it is okay\u2026it\u2019s a little dirty (it looks as if they didn\u2019t sweep the floor before we came) and my spider radar (spi-dar) is definitely up in that place. I already killed one that was running across the bed (it was heading for our bags). I assume I will be killing more\u2026but, it\u2019s better than CI Lodge, it has a TV and telephone (out going calls only). It\u2019s not really dirty, but it does need a thorough going over with the Lysol and a vacuum. I would do it, too, if I had the tools.\nOnly, at Sunny Beach there weren\u2019t any laundry machines and no public ones on the island so we had to wash by hand. My hands are quite raw right now (I like hot water) and so I think my cleaning days are on hold for awhile.",

        "title": "Aurora Borealis \u2013 ChiGarden",
        "raw_content": "16th October, 2012 on Travel\nNorthern Lights by Nick Russel\nBy coincidence, we\u2019ll be in the UK at a pretty good time of year to see the aurora borealis, or Northern Lights! It\u2019s something that I\u2019ve been fascinated by ever since I read Phillip Pullman\u2019s Northern Lights \u2013 somehow it feels like it\u2019s as close as you can get to magic. The northern parts of Scotland and Ireland are good places to view the aurora, although when it\u2019s particularly strong it can be seen even further south in the UK, or even all over Europe! Of course an aurora of that magnitude is quite rare, and it\u2019s impossible to predict when it will happen at all.\nAn aurora (plural: aurorae or auroras; from the Latin word aurora, \u201cdawn\u201d) is a natural light display in the sky particularly in the high latitude (Arctic and Antarctic) regions, caused by the collision of energetic charged particles with atoms in the high altitude atmosphere (thermosphere). The charged particles originate in themagnetosphere and solar wind and, on Earth, are directed by the Earth\u2019s magnetic field into the atmosphere.\nI discovered the site Aurora Watch UK, which tracks geomagnetic activity and will send out alerts through email, SMS, Twitter and Facebook when there\u2019s activity. Over the past two weeks there has been a yellow alert (indicating that the aurora might be visible from the very north of Scotland) almost every day, and an amber or red alert (indicating the aurora should be visible in the northern UK or the whole UK) every several days. I\u2019m hoping this is a good sign for us!\nWe\u2019ll most likely be spending a week driving around Scotland, so if I get a message with an aurora alert we\u2019re going to have to drop everything and drive to a good vantage point, with a bit of elevation and distance from too much light pollution. Sadly I don\u2019t think I\u2019ll have the right equipment to photograph it properly (I just can\u2019t justify taking along a tripod), so unless I can hire some I\u2019ll have to just settle for enjoying it with my eyes. But really, for such a magical experience I think that would be enough.\nI\u2019ll probably give it a shot anyway, even without a tripod. This article has a lot of great tips about photographing the aurora \u2013 maybe someday I\u2019ll get a chance to make a trip to photograph it properly. This has piqued my interest in astro-photography in general, so a lot of similar techniques will come in handy.\nApparently the aurora australis, around the Southern Pole is more active than ever lately \u2013 a few months ago it was even visible from the hills south of Perth. Isn\u2019t that amazing? I\u2019ll have to keep an ear out in case it happens again, or make a trip out to Tasmania to see it in all its glory.\nHave you ever seen an aurora? Was it magical?\nTagged: astro-photography, aurora, nature, travel photography\nOh wow \u2013 so jealous! It is definitely on my bucket list to see one, being able to capture one on camera would be even more amazing. Funnily enough I have also read Philip Pullman\u2019s Northern Lights \u2013 it is one of my favourite sci fi book series.\nThey got northern lights as far south as in the UK? Didn\u2019t know that. I thought it was just up north.\nIn Sweden we got them but they are better in the north than in the south I think.\nWow that\u2019s amazing\u2026 I would love to see that\u2026 Slightly jealous hahah :P\nI\u2019ve heard that the main enemy is the weather \u2013 clear skies in Scotland in November is apparently a bit uncommon, so the chances of it matching up with the aurora is extra tricky! But worth a try :) Scandinavia, Iceland and Alaska are on my someday-list, so I\u2019m sure I\u2019ll see it someday!\nI went in October about now and we got freaky weather for scotland where we got clear skies and no rain And sunshine.. for the 4 days we were there.. So who knows..? Might get lucky!",

On the eastern square is a replica of the Tiju Temple, the managing center of the shipyard. The temple is rebuilt in the style of the office building in the Ming Dynasty. The hall of treasures is in the temple, exhibiting the gifts and tributes from the countries Zheng He had been to during the voyages. Outside the temple there is a 11-meter-high observation post for the supervisors.\nFrom north to south, the park consists of four regions showing respectively the Zheng He Culture, the marine technology, the production in the shipyard and the life of the ancient ship-makers.\nA 200-meter-long corridor of steles in the Zheng He Culture Region marks the routes of Zheng He's expeditions as well as tells the stories about the foreign envoys visiting China during the Ming Dynasty.\nIn the region that shows the marine techniques, tourists can try measuring the speed of wind and of the ship on large models of ancient ships as if they were cruising the ocean with Zheng He's men.\nIn the simulative producing section of the shipyard, different work shops with models of workers are presented to show how a ship comes into being from a piece of wood.\nThe buildings in the south are dormitory of the workers. The congregation spot, the tool house, the salary issuing office and the drill ground where the sailors were trained are all recreated in accordance with the historical records.\nThe park will open to tourists in July.\n(CRI.com June 16, 2005)\nShip Sails Historical Mariner's Trail\nJuly 11 Set as Maritime Day",

Oh, it's real! & once it has you in its grip you might as well stop fighting it - resistance is futile. Seriously, it was a perfect day. I never did attempt that slalom but it's just as well. We cruised around for awhile and anchored in calm waters. The intention was to hang for awhile and eventually get around to skiing, but it's easy to lose track of time when the sun is shining and the beer's tasting good. I'm free to do that again anytime. I'd even call in sick to softball, but shhh, don't tell anyone.\nSo in the end I didn't need any ace bandages or crutches. Instead I introduced my passenger mirror to the tree in the middle of his driveway. Not to worry, it's minor enough that I can still see out of it. Yeah, I'll be backing into the driveway next time. At least then if I hit the tree, the mirrors are designed to flip that way. I scare myself with rationalizations like that.\nAfter the mirror and the tree were acquainted, I went out to Fletcher's with Jill Hyser. Dinner was great and we made plans for the weekend. Jill gets her car stereo installed on Saturday! Then she can rock out to Justin Timberlake on the way to work :) Hahaha\nCari!!!\nNo ace bandages or crutches? heh. good for you!\nYou make me want to head to the lake this weekend and, as a matter of fact, I think I will - gotta pick up some Coors Light on the way though, that will make it Official.\nPosted by: Jason | June 20, 2003 01:04 AM\nAbsolutely, the lake effect only works when fueled with Coors Light.",

        "raw_content": "Songwriting 101: Colin Hay (Riffraf)\nBy Rick Limpert | From www.riffraf.net | ORIGINAL ARTICLE\nHaving just returned from playing twenty dates in Australia, Grammy-winning singer/songwriter and former Men at Work frontman, Colin Hay will bring his stories, songs and delightful sense of humor to the U.S. as he embarks on his \u201cFinding My Dance\u201d tour.\nRecently, Mr. Hay celebrated the 30th anniversary of the Men at Work hit \u201cDown Under\u201d from the chart-topping Business As Usual album by releasing \u201cDown Under 2012,\u201d a re-recorded version of the #1 single.\nHay chatted with Riffraf about the songs he\u2019s most proud of writing, his appreciation of the Fab Four, and his love of vegemite.\nWas there a specific album, song, or group that inspired you to write songs of your own?\nThe obvious one is of course The Beatles. They did it for me. I grew up in a music shop in Scotland, so I was surrounded with lots of music. When I was younger, The Beatles seemed to create this whole world that I wanted to belong to. They had such a strong identity and created not only great songs but an unmistakable sound. They were the most inspirational to me.\nWho is your favorite songwriter?\nI liked all three songwriters in The Beatles. George, McCartney and Lennon. To me, they were so competitive. George came into his own during the end of his career. When I was younger, I wasn\u2019t conscious of who wrote each song. They had an interesting dynamic that was organically balanced. They all had great strengths and together they created this amazing mosaic.\nDo you remember the first song you wrote that you were proud of?\nWell, not really. I guess \u201cWho Can it Be Now\u201d was the first song I wrote that I thought hung together real well. Another song I wrote when I was in Men at Work that I felt I had arrived somewhere was \u201cOverkill.\u201d I thought that was a song that had some depth. It just seemed to have something that has resonated with me.\nWas it easier to write songs in the 80s than it is now?\nI\u2019ve never found it particularly easy to write songs. I think it has more to do with, not the decade\u2026but you hit that stride. From your late 20s, you start to get some momentum going and you know you have to make your mark. You ask yourself, \u201cHow can I survive in this world?\u201d I hit a bit of a streak when I was around 27 or 28 years old. When you are younger, you don\u2019t have that sense of time, so it seems you kind of wait and things happen naturally.\nMen At Work was known for its music videos. What kind of input and artistic control did you have?\nFor us, it was another way to express ourselves. We could do pretty much whatever we wanted. We never had anyone telling us what to do. They were fun to do. We tried to inject some personality into it. Wow, it was a long time ago.\nWhat would you say to those that said your music with Men at Work has a reggae influence?\nIn the 70s, reggae music was very big in Australia. We are a naturally fueled groove; it\u2019s on the off beat, especially guitar-wise. The drums were pretty straight, but we did give off a reggae flavor.\nThe line \u201cHe just smiled and gave me a vegemite sandwich\u201d sort of brought worldwide attention to vegemite. Did you realize that when you wrote it?\nWell, it still happens\u2026 obviously. You just mentioned it again. And I do like vegemite.\nManage your time. Prepare yourself to fail. That\u2019s all right. After a while your brain will settle and something can come in. I\u2019ve never really understood the business idea of making music. I was always of the mind that if you had talent and worked really hard, the business tends to find you.\nWhat was the reception for Gathering Mercury?\nPeople seemed to like it very much, and I think it\u2019s the best album I\u2019ve done. I have to really listen to my own instincts and keep on trying to make better albums. It was received extremely well.\nCan I ask you about your time with Ringo Starr and playing in his All-Star Band?\nIt was a fabulous experience to do a couple of tours with him. I know Ringo and have worked with Ringo, and I saw him recently when I was in Australia and it was good to catch up with him.\nI\u2019m kind of tricking myself right now into the fact that I\u2019m not going to be making a new record. I\u2019ve taken my time. This tour is long one, and I\u2019m working on songs and ideas. Hopefully soon, I\u2019ll have something ready.\nRead more: http://www.riffraf.net/2013/03/songwriting-101-colin-hay/#ixzz2QHzLHub9",

Some of them took time of work just so they could get their hands on the most expensive game ever made. It was developed by Rockstar North in Edinburgh, Scotland cost \u00a3170 million to produce and is expected to have retail sales of \u00a31bn in the first year. The last release was five years ago and the GTA franchise has sold 135 million copies since it was first released in 1997. The figures stack up well when compared to the release of big budget films and the distinction between games and films is increasingly blurred.\nSuccessful big budget console games are still made in the UK by Rockstar and Rocksteady. The UK games industry has had a difficult few years due to competition from Canada and the increase in the use of smart phones by games consumers. There was a modest growth of 4% in 2012 as studios moved away from developing for traditional platforms and embraced web-based digital gaming. It is estimated that over 35 million Britons are regular gamers and that with 30,000 people employed in the industry nationally. Gaming contributes \u00a31bn to the UK GDP\nBritish mobile and social gaming development is rapidly expanding. This opens up the possibility of developing games on smaller budgets and more developers are making games and self publishing and small studios are developing their own projects as well as doing the usual work for the bigger studios on a work for hire basis. Investors are interested once again. There are opportunities in gaming for artists, animators and audio designers, script writers, project managers, distributors, games media, PR, studio management and of course programmers. A variety of programming languages are used with Windows commonly written in C#, Android in Java, and iOS developers using Objective-C.\nYou may also be interested in our article on Why investors favour London\u2019s Silicon Roundabout.\nThe SwiftKey to \u00a311.3m\nThe award-winning Londond based, language technology company, SwiftKey, this week confirmed a $17.5M (\u00a311.3m) series B investment round. This was led by Index Ventures and supported by previous investors Octopus Investments and a number of angel investors. Doctoral research from Cambridge University into artifical intelligence led to the development of this company by Jon Reynolds and Ben Medlock.\nThe SwiftKey virtual smartphone keyboard app was the top-selling paid app on Android\u2019s Google Play store in 2012.The application corrects your spelling, suggests words based on your past vocabulary, detects what language you are typing and snaps to it, and picks up on your typing quirks. This is a cut above the usual predictive text. There have been 15 million downloads since 2010 and it has topped the donwload charts in 57 countries in the past year. This was their SwiftKey to \u00a311.3m. The app is blocked on Apple iPhones, Blackberries and Windows phones but they do sell technology directly to Samsung and Blackberry for handsets.\nThe inspiration for the comapany came through Jon Reynolds, while working in the Civil Service in 2008, noticing a lawyer awkwardly typing into a Blackberry using its tiny buttons. He got in touch with Medlock an old friend from his Cambridge days. They attended the Mobile World Congress in 2010 with a prototype and got a contract from Inq Mobile in the UK which enabled them to hire their first employees. They now have 100 employees and are opening offices is San Francisco and Seoul.\nAccording to an ACT Venture Capital report it is estimated that 529,000 people in the EU are directly employed in the design and marketing of smartphone and tablet apps, as online start-ups and blue chip companies are in a hurry to increase their presence on mobile devices. ACT invests in teams and entrepeneurs who can create and scale innovative companies.\nArjun runs with Olympic Torch\nBy CC Tags: Olympics No Comments\nArjun Fasje of IT consultancy Dynamic Futures will run through Kensington with the Olympic torch this afternoon.

        "title": "Copenhagenize.com - Bicycle Culture by Design: Copenhagen: City (full) of Bicycles",
        "raw_content": "Copenhagen: City (full) of Bicycles\nThe Dutch national bicycle council - Fietsberaad - has published a paper called \"Bicycle policies of the European principals: continuous and integral\".\nIn it they compare and analyze the bicycle culture and infrastructure in five Dutch cities and five other European cities. Among the latter, Copenhagen. I've included the chapter on Copenhagen here. It's a long post, but worth a read. As is the entire paper. The link to the .pdf is at the bottom of this post.\nIt's interesting and curious to read what foreign eyes see when looking at the bicycle life in Copenhagen. There are some discrepencies in the stats and opinions in the paper and I've included my own comments in red.\nMost of the paper deals with the CITY of Copenhagen, which is a small city, and not the entire Copenhagen metropolitan area/urban sprawl. It can often be misleading if you've never been here. The text below is an abridged version. Read the pdf for the full text. Off we go:\nUnlike most large cities in Europe, Copenhagen has a true bicycle tradition. Bicycle use is widespread among all groups of residents. As usual, part of the explanation is rooted in history, but at the same time the systematic and large-scale bicycle policies of Copenhagen local authorities have been remarkable in recent years.\nIn 1920 the compact city of Copenhagen had 225,000 inhabitants, by 1950 this had grown to more than 770,000. This strong growth at a time when bicycles, unlike cars, were available to all, is a major element in explaining the high degree of bicycle use. This also marks the start of a true tradition, a lifestyle where cycling is perfectly normal, in a way that is comparable to the Netherlands. Since the 1950\u2019s bicycle use fell strongly, in accordance with overall trends in Europe (as well as the number of inhabitants: back to 550,000), but this trend has reversed from the early 80\u2019s onwards. Presently (2009) Copenhagen has 518,000 inhabitants.\nThe Copenhagen metropolitan area has over 1.5 million inhabitants, which is particularly high in relation to the overall number of Danes: 5 million. Copenhagen is more or less equivalent to Denmark.\n[Ed. Copenhagen Metro area is about 1.9 million. Population of Denmark is 5.4 million. The city has the 3rd largest urban sprawl in Europe]\nGeneral and increasing bicycle use\nSince the mid-70\u2019s bicycle use in Copenhagen has been increasing, particularly in the town centre and its immediate surroundings. Counts on major routes around the town centre clearly demonstrate this:\nTrends in bicycle use in Copenhagen: cyclists towards the town centre over inner city cordon, morning peak hour 1950-2005\nThe figure clearly demonstrates the essence of the Copenhagen story: over the past 30 years the number of cyclists visible in the confines of the quite compact inner city has quadrupled in the morning rush hour; and doubled over the past 15 years\u2026 All data on bicycle use show positive trends only.\nThe percentage of bicycles in all transportation of Copenhagen residents has grown to 32%, considerably higher than the average in the Netherlands. Significantly higher than bicycle percentages in that other European bicycle capital, Amsterdam, as well (even though that city with its 756,000 inhabitants is considerably larger and therefore less easy to cycle). There bicycles account for some 28% of all transportation:\npublic transport CPH - 15% AMS - 18%\nbicycle 32% 28%\ncar 26% 27%\nwalking 24% 24%\nFor sure, several towns in the Netherlands have considerably higher percentages for bicycle use, as much as 40% even. But those are small towns \u2013 less than 200,000 inhabitants.\nCopenhagen local authorities mainly release data on commuter traffic. And usually not simply the commuting behaviour of Copenhagen residents, but the reverse: the modal split towards jobs in Copenhagen. That is the meaning of the 37% in 2008 mentioned among other data in the policy monitor and in many presentations on Copenhagen.\nThis number is high anyway for Copenhagen as many employed live in or near the city; much more so than is usual in the Netherlands, particularly in Amsterdam. These circumstances provide part of the explanation. In addition it is still truly remarkable that in 1996 a mere 30% of all Copenhagen employees commuted by bicycle whereas at present this has grown to no less than 37%.\nOverwhelming bicycle use \u2013 and a particular cycling culture\nObserving the Copenhagen morning rush hour is a phenomenon. Even for Dutchmen who\nknow all about bicycle towns. The numbers of cyclists continuously visible on the busiest routes, are incredible. One thing stands out immediately: Copenhagen truly is a \u2018city of bicycles\u2019 \u2013 in the sense that bicycle use is overwhelming. On the busiest routes more than 30,000 cyclists a day. These are numbers unknown elsewhere in Europe. In rush hour this provides unique images: continuous overtaking, a kind of bicycle caterpillar slowly spinning round itself. And at every traffic light a queue of cyclists \u2013 three abreast.\nTo a Dutchman these numbers are impressive, but so are the characteristics of the cyclists themselves, as these differ greatly from what is common in the Netherlands:\n- highly visible: considerable numbers of cyclists are wearing a helmet; approximately 1 in 6.\n[Ed. The intense, propaganda-like helmet promotion of the Danish Road Safety Council and the Danish Cyclists Federation has increased the number of helmets over the past two years. I covered this - and the negative results - in my recent TED c Copenhagen talk.]\n- the bicycles are almost without exception nice, well-maintained, new \u2013 and often the sporty type.\n- the manner of cycling is sporty as well. A considerable number of people pedal at a fierce pace. At traffic lights almost half of all cyclists are actually panting.\n[Ed. A fascinating observation. One that I've never experienced myself. Very strange. I think I've documented rush hour in Copenhagen in photos and films enough to be able to say that this postulate is a bit far-fetched. It is true that the speeds are higher than in the Netherlands and in the morning rush hour there are testosterone cyclists muscling their way along, but take this postulate with a grain of salt.]\n- certainly the morning rush hour consists nearly completely out of commuters and hardly any children on their way to secondary schools.\n[Ed. This is misleading. Makes it sound like kids don't ride bicycles. However, most parents drop off their kids at school in their neighbourhoods and then continue on into the city to go to work. The bicycle traffic at schools in the surrounding neighbourhoods and suburbs is impressive.]\n- cyclists obey traffic regulations quite well. In Copenhagen people do not feel this way, as other road users complain in considerable and increasing numbers about cyclists\u2019 behaviour. But compared to cycling in the Netherlands, everything is extremely tidy and disciplined. Over 90% of cyclists stop at a red light. Riding three abreast, with passengers on the back, mobile phone in use \u2013 rare occurrences. Choosing your own route across any type of public space, as long as it is a shortcut from X to Y \u2013 is compared to the Dutch cyclists\u2019 behaviour almost never to be seen.\nExtremely utilitarian\nProbably everything is connected to everything else. And an \u2018external factor\u2019 like the relatively extremely low risk of theft will certainly be a crucial variable in all of this: better bicycles/other cyclists.\n[Ed. Roughly 17,000 bicycles are stolen in Copenhagen each year]\nBut the most striking feature is that Copenhagen appears to possess quite a specific cycling culture. Maybe basically different from the predominant cycling culture in the Netherlands.\nTwo catchwords appear to apply to Copenhagen cyclists:\n- conscious: the conscious choice of a proud adult.\n- rational: a deliberate choice, based on the clear advantages of bicycle use.\nThere is a good reason for Copenhagen cyclists to say they cycle mainly because it\nis fast, simple and healthy.\n[Ed. The majority of Copenhagen cyclists say they choose the bicycle because it is fast and easy. 56%. Only 19% say they do so because it's 'good exercise'.]\nThe word lifestyle may be highly appropriate, since this refers more or less to a conscious decision by individuals, whereas the word culture refers more to an individual\u2019s environment.\nThe very word lifestyle is frequently used by policymakers and people connected to the Copenhagen bicycle scene. That cycling lifestyle translates into a different street scene when compared to the Netherlands.\nCycling is less of a statement there, less conscious, less emphatic. Cycling in the\nNetherlands often looks less utilitarian as well, more relaxed.\nDifferences in cycling culture between Copenhagen and (for instance) Amsterdam should not be exaggerated, of course. From a European point of view, after all, the similarities are much more striking. With a bicycle percentage of 32% it is almost inevitable that bicycle use is high among all age and social categories. In recent years bicycle use has grown particularly among the elderly. Cyclists are evenly distributed over all income categories, unlike car owners (mainly higher incomes) and public transport users (mainly lower incomes).\nCycling is simply \u2018socially accepted\u2019. In Copenhagen it is pointed out that it is not unusual to see ministers and local authorities cycling to work.\nEffecting a bicycle lifestyle\nNevertheless, there are differences in cycling culture and lifestyle at official and political levels in urban cycling policies that should not go unmentioned.\nFirst of all: officially cycling policies are a mature and particularly independent issue. Copenhagen possesses a bicycle team of currently 6 people. Projects are implemented everywhere in the organisation; the bicycle team is a clear and well-known information and co-ordination point. And within the bicycle team cycling culture, lifestyle and promotion of Copenhagen as bicycle town is an important issue.\nWitness the presentations, among them by manager Andreas R\u00f8hl, on cycling in Copenhagen: mainly dealing with the position of the bicycle in Copenhagen \u2013 and much less with the details of cycling infrastructure. The main emphasis is on what cycling means for the city and its inhabitants. External champion is Gehl Architects, the bureau of the famous Jan Gehl, strongly contributing to positioning Copenhagen as \u2018a people approach\u2019: urban design specifically for people. Gehl Architects uses to this end the striking images of streets full of cyclists versus empty streets or streets full of cars. And catchy slogans: A city full of bicyclists is a friendly city \u2013 a people city.\nThe Copenhagen bicycle team is also involved in more theoretical foundations of promotion: \u2018mainstreaming\u2019 bicycle traffic.\n\u201cA mainstream bicycle culture needs to be flexible enough to embrace both mass culture and individual sub-cultures in order to be thoroughly successful. Cycling\nbeing as mainstream as it is, there is need for a common debate on the positive aspects of everyday cycling . (...)\nTo meet these demands, the City of Copenhagen has set off a new campaign based on the brand \u201cI bike CPH\u201d. This brand communicates positivity, participation and\nownership - and a sense of community that is as flexible as the bicycle culture out on the streets. The campaign includes happenings on street level as well as an interactive web 2.0 community.\u201d\nPro-cycling politics\nSecondly: in local politics cycling policy is very much an item. To a certain degree it was a political issue in the latest local elections. And it is generally assumed that pro-cycling choices of nominee politicians were truly effective in those elections. Andreas R\u00f8hl provides several reasons for political support for cycling. The well-known social advantages (less congestion, environmental concerns, health, urban life) but he also mentions the possibility of some more inherently political motives: projects can often be implemented within a single term in office;\nbicycle policies are relatively inexpensive and highly visible. And finally, emphatically: 60% of voters have a bicycle as their main mode of daily transport.\nThis stronger political drive behind local bicycle policies goes with radical and clear objectives that are communicated as much as possible, too: 50% share of cycling to work and school (previous target 40%); 50% fewer casualties; 80% of all cyclists to feel comfortable. And that in 2015, an emphatic and major element in a larger ambition: becoming the world\u2019s eco-metropolis.\n[Ed. Unfortunately there is little sign or hope that these goals will be reached. Cycling levels have fallen since 2008.]\nThe attention paid to interaction with the inhabitants in Copenhagen cycling policy is matched by heavy monitoring of that policy. In the Bicycle Account biennial developments in bicycle use and safety have been recorded since 1996, as well as\nfacts about the immediate results of municipal cycling policy. However, the most important and most frequently used part of the Bicycle Account is a standard bicycle satisfaction survey. There cyclists award scores on eight essential elements of cycling policy.\nThe overall judgement of the cyclists (Copenhagen cycling city) is high and has been rising since 1996. Nevertheless there is a clear gap between the very high appreciation of the general issue of Copenhagen as a cycling city and the verdicts on actual bicycle facilities.\nThere is hardly a positive trend there, on the contrary. The greatest decline is in the width of Copenhagen bicycle paths. This appears to be a direct consequence of the policy\u2019s success: increasing numbers of cyclists on the same infrastructure \u2013 leading to crowding. The numbers in recent years may actually now lead to congestion on bicycle paths along certain stretches of roads and in rush hour.\nBicycle paths with a width of 2.20 metres can only handle approximately 2,000 cyclists an hour. Whereas rush hour numbers are approaching 3,000 cyclists on the busiest routes. Widening to 3 metres is advisable on the busiest routes and is being considered by local authorities.\nRaised adjoining bicycle paths\nRemarkable cyclists, remarkable numbers of cyclists - but certainly also remarkable bicycle facilities in Copenhagen. The range of facilities is severely limited. Where many other towns demonstrate a wide range and combination of bicycle lanes and bicycle paths, depending on time of construction and local circumstances, Copenhagen has almost no bicycle lanes separated from car lanes by markings only (18 km of bicycle lanes compared to 338 km of bicycle paths). Standard the bicycle paths, on either side of the road, are at least 2 metres, often 2,5 metres wide. A typically Copenhagen phenomenon is that these are usually \u2018(raised) adjoining bicycle paths\u2019, according to Dutch terminology. The Dutch \u2018separate bicycle paths\u2019,\nwith a clear distance/verge between car lane and bicycle path, are rare in Copenhagen. And \u2018solitary bicycle paths\u2019, with their own route, can occasionally be found, but then emphatically as part of a specific network, the green routes (see below).\nThe raised adjoining bicycle paths are a success in Copenhagen. No one is advocating\nfundamentally different types of facilities. Which is remarkable, particularly when combined with high numbers of cyclists. In the Netherlands it might be a cause for concern: no more than a kerb between the bicycle path and motorists; a great risk of falling when overtaking and landing among the cars. Not so in Copenhagen, maybe partly due to the fact that people seem to be cycling 2 (or 3) abreast relatively less often.\nHighly similar bicycle facilities along highly similar roads. Because that is certainly also a factor: the Copenhagen bicycle network is concentrated along heavy radials, meant for motorists as well. Which leads to situations along stretches of road and at intersections that are or may be more or less similar. The best standard solutions are looked for in intersections, just like along the stretches of road (with raised adjoining bicycle paths). Where \u2018best\u2019 usually translates into \u2018safest\u2019.\nSince the bicycle path is so close to motor lanes, the most logical and common mechanism is essentially turning inwards at intersections. Making cyclists more visible. Copenhagen bicycle paths usually change into bicycle lanes a few metres before an intersection, lead straight across the intersection (since the 90\u2019s often marked in blue with white bicycle symbols) and change back into bicycle paths beyond the intersection.\nExperiences with the blue intersection markings are positive. Studies show an increase in safety. In particular the number of accidents between cyclists going straight ahead and on-coming left-turning motorists has clearly fallen.\nThe search for the best solution is however still on regarding intersections with lengthened or shortened raised-adjoining bicycle paths. The solution for some of the conflicts is clear: cyclists meeting a red light should be positioned somewhat closer to the intersection than motorists waiting as well. Problems are caused by cyclists arriving at the intersection when lights are green. And that happens a lot, due to the huge numbers of cyclists on those radials and the long green phases on those radials for bicycles and cars (together). That makes right turn lanes for cars highly advisable anyway. At the busiest moments, however, the situation is visibly \u2018wrong\u2019. Motorists will eventually use even the tiniest gap in the rows of fast bicycles.\nIn this respect it seems inevitable that increasingly a decision is made in favour of conflict-free solutions between cyclists going straight ahead and cars turning right.\nImplementation of the bicycle network\nBicycle facilities in Copenhagen go back a long way. Initially these were mainly recreational bicycle paths along arterial roads. The first bicycle path dates from 1920. By 1930 this had already grown to 130 km of bicycle paths. After 1945 the main issue was segregation of traffic types on the busiest main roads. Many bicycle paths were constructed particularly along new main roads. Presumably thanks in part to these facilities bicycle use stood its ground, even in the decades of decline and minimal attention by policymakers. The network of bicycle paths has since been almost completed - almost one hundred years of bicycle path construction bears fruit. Overall there is approximately 340 km of bicycle path nowadays (2009). And although this is by and large complete, there is still some degree of expansion every year.\n[Ed. The oft quoted length of bicycle infrastructure - 340 km - is only in the municipality of Copenhagen. Gehl Architects have counted 1000 km of bike paths in Greater Copenhagen. In addition, the claim that the first bicycle path dates from 1920 may not be correct. Here is a photo of bike paths being marked out from 1915. And here's a photo of building a bike path in the 1930's]\nIn 2008 another 5 km of bicycle path was added (and 4 km hugely improved). According to local planners there is still some 50-60 km to go.\nNetwork choices: traditional radials versus park routes\nThe bicycle network of raised adjoining bicycle paths covers to a large degree exactly the same routes as car traffic. The busiest bicycle routes are the traditional radials that are also preferred routes for motor vehicles. This decision in favour of \u2018convergence\u2019 has a number of consequences. Cycling in Copenhagen means cycling in the noise and pollution of motor vehicles. At the same time it is also a very direct route - and cyclists are relatively little bothered by traffic lights on the radials themselves, as they are carried along in the long\ngreen phases for the neighbouring motor vehicles.\nHuge numbers of cyclists do this on a daily basis, as the radials are so attractive \u2013 both to cyclists and motorists. Just look at the map: the busiest routes in Copenhagen are the last 3-4 km of five clear radial routes. As well as the route along Langebro and Hans Christian Andersen's Boulevard, slightly less typically radial.\nThe convergence of bicycles and cars on those radials also explains most of the emphasis in Copenhagen bicycle policies. The large amount of attention to safe bicycle infrastructure on intersections is closely linked to the large numbers of intersections on those radials and their heavy load. And it is no more than fitting that Copenhagen should be one of the first cities to introduce green waves for cyclists. The first route where this was realised was a 2200-metre stretch of road with no fewer than 12 traffic lights.\nGreen Wave on N\u00f8rrebrogade (2004)\nN\u00f8rrebrogade is the main bicycle axis in Copenhagen. Near the town centre at the time 30,000 cyclists a day, alongside 17,000 cars. A little over 2 km further along there were 15,000 cyclists and 16,000 cars. The effects of the green wave along 12 traffic lights (with considerable green phases in the main direction anyway) with a standard speed of 20 km/h, could easily be demonstrated. In the morning rush hour towards the town centre the advantage to cyclists was 2.29 minutes (6 stops less); in the opposite direction 1 stop was gained as well as 35 seconds. Effects in the afternoon were more difficult to gauge, as there is no clear rush hour. The effect (out of the town centre) is smaller, but still clear: 1.13 minutes advantage thanks to 3 stops less.\n[Ed. See a film about Riding the Green Wave in Copenhagen.]\nAll attention has gone, both in the past and the present, to the bicycle facilities along these busy radials. The alternative has been positioned radically different in Copenhagen. Alongside or in contrast to the adjoining bicycle paths along arterial routes there are no routes with the same function through residential neighbourhoods, along low-traffic roads. There are only \u2018green cycle routes\u2019. Literally green: to a large extent winding through parks and complete car-free areas. There has been a distinct search for routes over longer distances and complete routes; even a complete network. There are some 22 green routes planned, each on average 5 km long. Of the overall 110 km some 41 km have been realised at this time. The speed is not impressive: in 1995 there were already 29 km in existence.\nThe network of green routes is emphatically not meant to be utilitarian. Copenhagen states:\n\u201cThe green cycle routes are for recreation, bicycle exercise, running, walking, skateboarding and other games on wheels. In addition, they offer anybody cycling to their place of work or education the opportunity to cycle all or part of their daily journey through peaceful, green, car-free and bus-free surroundings.\u201d\nInevitable network choices: low(er) car traffic\nFew direct routes, only to a slight degree aimed at the major destinations, slow to be effected \u2013 it will be clear that in this way there will not be an alternative for the functional \u2018convergence\u2019 routes for a long time. And therefore the inevitable problems on the convergence routes will have to be addressed on their own. There are various solutions possible\u2013- and the beginnings can be discerned in Copenhagen as well:\n- if the numbers of cars and bicycles become prohibitive at the busiest intersections, the time has come for the best but also most expensive solution: different levels. Copenhagen has more or less started on this road.\n- The numbers of bicycle bridges and tunnels are still quite low, but increasing. As well as the realisation that this is necessary.\n- if the numbers of cyclists on those busy radials outgrows the available room, additional room will have to be found. At the expense of motor vehicles.\nIt is quite remarkable that this is already occurring in Copenhagen, and without too many problems: parking spaces are being sacrificed in favour of raised adjoining bicycle paths. All over the town the desire to decrease the number of lanes for car traffic will be growing. By now there is a precedent: N\u00f8rrebrogade has been closed to through traffic since 2008. This caused 40% fewer motor vehicles in rush hour, which pleased 67% of the local residents and added aprox. 5000 cyclists to the aprox. 30.000 that daily passed the most popular part of the street before the redesign.\nNevertheless Copenhagen \u2013 cycling capital in numbers of cyclists \u2013 is remarkable for the room still afforded to cars very close to the town centre. Heavily-used car routes at a distance of less than a kilometre from the town centre. Remarkably short car queues outside rush hour. The most extreme example: the intersection Gyldenl\u00f8vesgade/S\u00f8gade: the radial route has 9 lanes for cars, at 900 metres\u2019 distance from the market (Nytorv). There Copenhagen appears to be a true car city!\nIndirectly, without much ado and very cautiously, steps have been taken towards a kind of alternative network along low-traffic roads. N\u00f8rrebrogade is a first instance: closure for motor vehicles has shifted this route to some degree from the \u2018convergence-radials network\u2019 towards a \u2018low-traffic network\u2019. The bicycle bridge in a green route across the busy \u00c5gade/\u00c5boulevard (2008) makes that route much more functional and to a certain extent radial as well.\nThe bicycle bridge Bryggebroen across the harbour at Islands Brygge (2006) created a new functional route - and attracted 3,000 cyclists from the very first day, a number that at the latest count (2009) had increased to 8500.\nWhat makes them cycle so much?\nWhen all is said and done, it is still confusing to see the huge numbers of cyclists on the cycling axis' in Copenhagen. In part this is some sort of optical illusion, a result of the strong clustering of all cyclists on those radials. Nevertheless Copenhagen is still the cycling capital of Europe, even in percentage of cycling. The quality and quantity of the bicycle infrastructure clearly match this. At the same time, however, the quality of the cycling network does not appear to be the cause for the numbers of cyclists and their rapid increase. In bicycle infrastructure Copenhagen is far less of a capital. And by no means is Copenhagen the car-free capital.\nSo after all still a \u2018culture\u2019 or \u2018lifestyle\u2019 \u2013 whatever that may be? To a certain degree this may be so. But some more tangible factors can be discerned, particularly when compared to Dutch towns:\n1. the low numbers of car ownership in Denmark, in particular Copenhagen, due to high purchasing costs (almost twice as high as in the Netherlands). In the Netherlands car ownership per head is 21% higher than in Denmark. Amsterdam has 42 cars per 100 inhabitants, Copenhagen 22 \u2013 although it is not sure the data are comparable.\n2. few opportunities for parking cars in the Copenhagen town centre. Of course this holds for visitors in many other towns as well. But Copenhagen appears to be exceptional: even employees struggle to find parking space. Major companies do not have private parking garages to a much lesser degree.\n3. Low numbers of bicycle theft. Even in the Netherlands we know the spiral may be upward or downward: less theft, better bicycles, nicer to cycle, cycle more often, et cetera.\nYet it remains hard to explain. And the reality remains overwhelming: Copenhagen is indeed a city (full) of cyclists. And because it is so hard to explain and in several respects it appears the cycling climate may be improved a lot, a continued increase of bicycle use seems to be likely.\n- provided cyclists will demand their rightful place, even in traffic behaviour...\n- provided Copenhagen will reduce the role of cars near the town centre, as dozens of other towns in Europe have done...\n- provided cycling will be even nicer and more relaxed by additional improvements in the network.\n[Ed: Copenhagenize agrees wholeheartedly with these recommendations. Let's hope someone is listening.]\nLink to the paper as .pdf: The Fietsberaad - Bicycle policies of the European principals: continuous and integral\ntags: \"bike culture\", \"bike helmet hysteria\", \"bike history\", \"bike infrastructure\", \"bike statistics\", \"city of copenhagen\", fietsberaad, holland",

The event raised an incredible \u00a32million. 2014 incorporated what was arguably the toughest cycling that Lawrence and the team had tackled yet; over 2,500km across many of the Cols and passes of the Tour de France and Giro d\u2019Italia.

        "raw_content": "As the amount of money stashed in 401(k)s and individual retirement accounts has grown, more and more families are finding themselves locked in battles over who has rights to the assets.\nEven with the many concerns over retirement accounts in America, it\u2019s undeniable \u2013 IRAs and 401(k)s represent a lot of personal wealth for everyday Americans. That means retirement accounts are assets uniquely worthy of particular attention, to include when it comes to their role in your estate planning. Indeed, amongst households with at least $100,000 to invest, 60% of the household\u2019s assets are in an IRA or 401(k).\nSo, how ought retirement accounts factor into your estate planning. Who will inherit them? The answer is not a simple as you may think. Truth be told, the problem with retirement accounts is the crazy quilt of laws governing their distributions, and moreover, different laws apply to 401(k)s and IRAs.\nThe inheritance of retirement accounts is a lively topic and none other than The Wall Street Journal has recently offered a piece on the issue. While I commend the full article to your reading file, let\u2019s review a few of the highlights here.\nWith 401(k)s, the overarching rules are in place thanks to the federal Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA). If you are married, the 401(k) automatically passes to your spouse and does so regardless whether your spouse is the designated beneficiary, unless your spouse waives his or her right to your 401(k). By the way, if you have a premarital agreement, your intended spouse cannot effectively waive rights in your 401(k) until you are actually married. Plan accordingly.\nWhat if you have children from a former marriage and you want to include them as beneficiaries along with your new spouse? Consider \u201crolling\u201d your 401(k) into an IRA and making the beneficiary designations per your wishes, even if your children are beneficiaries under your will and trust.\nTeaching point: The beneficiary designations on file with the retirement plan administrator trump any contrary arrangements in your will and trust. In fact, the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that, despite any state law to the contrary, your ex-spouse will inherit your 401(k), if he or she is the last designated beneficiary on file with the plan administrator.\nIRAs are governed by state law and that, by and large, makes them more pliable. Without the inflexibility of the ERISA laws, when it comes to your IRA it\u2019s all about the named beneficiary (unless there is a state law to the contrary). One thing remains consistent, however. The beneficiary on file with the plan administrator takes precedence over any provisions under your will and trust. Exceptions: Some state laws rule out the complete disinheritance of a spouse and some have laws automatically disinherit an ex-spouse as beneficiary, unless you\u2019ve completed the extra paperwork to confirm your intent to include your ex-spouse as beneficiary.\nBottom line: Retirement accounts, whether 401(k)s or IRAs, are important assets for many Americans. Given the complex tangle of laws that control your options, it is essential that you consult with competent legal counsel and coordinate the distribution of your retirement accounts as part of your overall estate planning. Be sure to consult an estate planning attorney admitted in your state of residence, as state property laws may need to be evaluated, too.\nReference: The Wall Street Journal (September 7, 2011) \u201cFamily Feuds: The Battle Over Retirement Accounts\u201d\nSuggested Key Words:\nTags: 401(k), children, ERISA, estate planning, inheritance, IRA, premarital agreement, retirement planning, spouse",

        "raw_content": "Informix \u201cPanther\u201d Release Now Generally Available\nTo help clients cut costs and respond quickly to market trends, IBM has unveiled new Informix database software. Informix 11.7 , which was codenamed \"Panther\" in development, helps clients and partners speed the deployment of critical business solutions at lower cost while boosting performance by as much as 50%.\nInformix was one of the earliest enterprise DBMSs to adopt Linux. The first Informix database on Linux was released in 1998, and Linux has continued to be a mainstream platform for Informix, currently deployed by enterprise customers for mission-critical applications, according to Jerry Keesee, director of World Wide Development for Informix.\nAmong the key new enhancements featured in Informix 11.7 are innovative data compression - which requires up to 60% less storage than competitors' products, says Martin Wildberger, vice president, World Wide Development, IBM. Additionally, he notes, the new Flexible Grid reduces administration time by up to 80% by giving customers the flexibility to scale data management across regional or global clusters while mixing existing and new equipment, different hardware types and different operating systems. With Informix, Flexible Grid customers no longer need to plan scheduled down time for maintenance or upgrades. And, in addition to a free developer edition of Informix, the new Innovator C-Edition is free to download and deploy - with redistribution option available for partners.\n\"Companies and customers worldwide are recognizing the need to use information more effectively,\" says Wildberger, commenting on the market drivers for the enhancements in the new release. \"For example, a global IBM study of more than 2,500 CIOs showed that 83% survey respondents identified analytics - the ability to see patterns in vast amounts of data and extract actionable insights - as the way they will enhance their organizations' competitiveness. The new high-performance Informix software helps businesses by making it easier and faster to power business analytics along with transactional applications - boosting performance by as much as 50%. As a result, customers can respond quickly to market trends, maximize sales opportunities and reduce equipment costs.\"\nInformix is supported on a variety of Linux distributions which include the current versions of Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL), SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES), Asianux, Debian and Ubuntu, notes Current versions of Fedora and openSUSE are supported by the Informix Developer Edition. Informix 11.7 Virtual Appliance is also available on SLES 11.\nFor more information on the release, go here.\nRead \"Informix 11.7: The Beginning of the Next Decade of IBM Informix,\" by Richard Wozniak, program director, Information Management Marketing, IBM Software Group, in the October E-Edition of Database Trends and Applications.",

        "raw_content": "The next generation of DJ performance technology: Marc Romboy sneak preview of Smithson Martin Emulator.\nMarc Romboy will be playing three exclusive European shows to showcase Smithson Martin's Emulator. This revolutionary piece of technology for DJs and producers melds midi-based software with touch-screen hardware with stunning results. He is the first DJ ever to perform with the latest Emulator software, and these dates are the first opportunity to catch him in action.\nThe tour begins in London with a date at Ministry of Sound on 13th August. Second stop is Bloom Club in Wuppertal, Germany on 19/08 and he finishes up at Studio 80 in Amsterdam on 26/08. The final stop includes an Emulator workshop run by Romboy himself, which will give professionals and aspiring artists a chance to try the kit and learn from a true expert.\nEmulator is 'the world's first and only fully customizable, multi-touch software for professional DJs and music producers.' Creators Smithson Martin are a software development company with a focus on DJ technology, and this is their flagship development. The company was founded by two veteran DJs, Alan Smithson (Canada) and Pablo Martin (Argentina) who share a passion for music, DJing and technology.\nDuring the shows Romboy will be using the state-of-the-art DJ tool dual view multi-touch system. This large-scale interface, also available from Smithson Martin, shows just what is possible when Emulator becomes part of the performance. The DJ becomes part of the light show as the crowd witnesses their every move, giving the performer a new and exciting way to communicate with the audience.\nSystematic label head and DJ/producer Marc Romboy was a natural choice for raising the profile of the software. He loves 'to DJ all over the world because he likes the way everybody understands and lives the same, universal language of techno and house music.' A true internationalist, he regularly appears at clubs including The Rex in Paris, Fabric and Ministry Of Sound in London and Berghain in Berlin. Known as an artist who constantly seeks to change and evolve his style, the opportunity to experiment with new technology and new ways to perform was too good for him to pass up.",

However, for people in India, Indian Mud Wrestling, or also called Kushti wrestling is a way of life. It requires dedication not only in exercise, but also in diet, fitness and discipline.\nKushti wrestling is not something new, at least not to the world. Spartan wrestling has been popular since the times of Ancient Greece, but people in India have taken it to another level in past years.\nKushti wrestling is also known as Pehlwani, and the persons wrestling are known as Pehlwan. The wrestling takes place in Akhada, a place for practicing where there are strict set of rules made by the trainer.\nRecently, Kushti wrestling is losing its popularity, and there are very few schools of wrestling left in India. The sport is also present in countries surrounding India, but India produces the best Kushti wrestlers. One of the most famous Indian wrestlers is Sushil Kumar, who won the medal at the 2008 Beijing Olympic games and reached the final at the 2012 London Olympic Games.\nThe Documentary takes you through the life of an Indian wrestler, their diet, exercise, and how they prepare for the vigorous battle. Moves, countermoves are developed in the Akhada, where strength goes against strength.\nBut the most interesting aspect of the sport is the money that wrestlers earn. Some of them start fighting for as little as $1 per fight, and hardly reach $10 per fight. With so low rates, one can ask what drives the wrestlers to fight against each other? The answer is simple, pride and tradition.\nPeopleSportLifestyleIndiaCultureHumanPhilosophyIndia",

        "raw_content": "\u00ab Adverb trouble\nEthical oil \u00bb\nMy \u201cOpen Range\u201d column from the December 2010 issue of Alberta Venture magazine\nThree cheers to Stephen Harper for steering Canada away from a U.S.-style spending calamity\nAmerican voters showed their disenchantment with President Barack Obama and the Democratic Party in last month\u2019s Congressional mid-term elections, and a bigsource of their fury was the colossal mishandling of the US$787-billion federal stimulus program. The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act was supposed to get more than a million unemployed Americans working again by focusing on thousands of \u201cshovel-ready\u201d public infrastructure projects. It did nothing of the sort, and Obama was reduced to bragging about the jobs created in making the signage (at US$10,000 each, totalling US$192 million) used to advertise the local stimulus spends.\nHere in Canada you can\u2019t have missed seeing those \u201cAction Plan\u201d signs with the sweeping green-and-blue stripes suggesting a bold push into a better tomorrow. These propagandistic flourishes probably also cost more than they should have. But what really distinguishes Canada\u2019s federal stimulus program is how much better it\u2019s been than its disastrous U.S. counterpart, not only in relative size but in conception, political intent, administrative structure and, most of all, execution. For that, we have our oft-maligned prime minister, Stephen Harper, to thank. I think Harper saved Canadian taxpayers billions of dollars.\nThat happy result came about because the PM and a few key ministers thought things through. They knew the huge new pile of cash in the 2009 budget was potentially toxic. The opposition and news media would be watching their every step. If money was misspent, the Conservative minority government would be toppled and probably lose the subsequent election. Instead, some adroit moves brought about the opposite result \u2013 a whole bunch of newly paved roads and fixed-up seaports and other public facilities. It also keeps Harper on track to becoming the longest-serving minority prime minister in Canadian history.\nFirst, the stimulus program was kept temporary. Unlike nearly all other government programs, it would actually end one day. Second, there\u2019d be no special department created to administer it. That would have led to empire-building and inexorable pressure to make \u201cstimulus\u201d a permanent program. It would also encourage delay and waste \u2013 hundreds of millions for \u201cproject definition.\u201d\nThird, despite immense opposition pressure to emulate Obama, the Economic Action Plan was limited in size. Depending on exactly what you count, and leaving out provincial spending, it amounts to $30-40 billion over two years. Fourth, there was maximum focus on real projects \u2013 building genuine infrastructure rather than simply inflating public-sector salaries. In the end, 23,000 projects were funded and virtually all the money voted was spent.\nHarper, an economist with a pro-free market philosophy informed by luminaries like Hayek and Von Mises, knew government-funded projects would be less efficient than those run by the private sector. The trick was to minimize the inefficiency, and that became the plan\u2019s fifth feature. Senior bureaucrats were called together and told this was their chance to shine. Rather than squabbling over spoils or spending the next two years obsessing over downsides \u2013 delivering inaction \u2013 they were persuaded to seize a golden moment to prove government can work. Reportedly, most responded with enthusiasm and even patriotism.\nThe Labour government in Australia, by contrast, created just the overarching new bureaucracy that Harper avoided. It spent the following 18 months hoarding cash and talking about what it might do one day, accumulating meetings, studies, presentations. It created jobs only for itself. This boondoggle helped drive the fall of Prime Minister Kevin Rudd.\nThe U.S. economy has shed seven million private-sector jobs since the recession took hold. But public-sector employment has increased \u2013 thanks largely to the stimulus program. In October, Obama admitted he had no idea when he claimed there were thousands of shovel-ready programs whether there actually were any. \u201cShovel-ready\u201d became a sad metaphor for bureaucrats shovelling truckloads of cash to politically favoured groups. Meanwhile, actual U.S. infrastructure has continued to crumble.In one instance I saw personally, an excellent stretch of high-grade state highway in rural Montana was ripped apart and rebuilt to the same standard, with no improvement. The rebuilt section lies on an Indian reservation. One U.S. columnist called the stimulus \u201ca Trojan horse for pet projects promoted by special interest groups,\u201d an effort to \u201cexpand government\u201d with \u201clittle apparent connection with economic growth.\u201d Any new spending \u2013 higher welfare payments, global warming research \u2013 became \u201cstimulus.\u201d\nIn Canada, through good management, the Conservatives dodged a multibillion-dollar political bullet. For this great service to Canadians, they\u2019ve been maligned and ridiculed by the opposition. The Liberals hammer the government for running up the deficit \u2013 after nearly toppling the Conservatives for crafting too small a stimulus. You do remember the Liberal-NDP-Bloc Qu\u00e9b\u00e9cois coalition back in late 2008? If they\u2019d had their way, the deficit would be $90 billion. A Liberal-run stimulus would have been conceived, structured and directed with partisan political intent, and with results little different from those under Obama. Canada has vastly outperformed both the U.S. and its own past record. Much of the credit belongs with Stephen Harper.\nThis entry was posted on Wednesday, December 1st, 2010 at 3:32 pm\tand is filed under Alberta Venture. Click here to trackback from your own site.",

        "title": "The birth of bitcoin and its rise popularity - Edinboro Now",
        "raw_content": "On Oct. 31, 2008 a paper credited to Satoshi Nakamoto, titled \u201cBitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System,\u201d was posted on a cryptography mailing list. The paper was designed to educate potential users on a new currency after the crash of the stock market. On Jan. 3, 2009 a decentralized digital currency was born. To this day, Nakamoto\u2019s exact whereabouts and identity remain unknown.\nSo what is bitcoin and what makes it different? Since it\u2019s a decentralized cryptocurrency it can be transferred via the internet, therefore it can be directly sent from person to person without going through a bank, which means lower transaction fees. Sending bitcoin is similar to sending an email. It requires two people to have an account, and between those accounts, money can be sent between those individuals. Additional features to bitcoin include the flexibility to be used in any country, not having to worry about your account freezing and zero prerequisites.\n\u201cUnlike a stock whose value is highly correlated with the company's performance, Bitcoin's value only depends on the demand and supply of Bitcoin,\u201d said Dr. Jingze Jiang, a business and economics professor at Edinboro University. \u201cIt satisfies the basic characteristics for currency. You can store the value and it can be used as a medium of exchange,\u201d she continued.\nCryptocurrency also operates on a similar level to the stock market. For example, there are many different stocks to invest in, so you choose to invest with what stock you think will make you the most money. It\u2019s similar to investing in Coca-Cola or Disney. Aside from bitcoin and Ethereum, some other cryptocurrencies in circulation are: Litecoin, Zcash, Dash, Ripple and Monero. However, the cryptocurrency that started it all was bitcoin.\nAccording to the Pew Research Center: \u201c24 percent of Americans indicate that they make no purchases using cash during a typical week. At the same time, an identical share of Americans (24 percent) indicate that they use cash for all or almost all of their typical purchases, and about half of Americans (51 percent) fall somewhere in the middle.\u201d\nIn that spirit of convenience, some people would rather rely on the digital aspect of making a transaction, which is why companies like Microsoft and Overstock.com are bitcoin friendly.\nWhen asked if Zachary Owens \u2013 a local certified bitcoin professional \u2013 could buy a pizza at John\u2019s Wildwood Pizzeria with bitcoin, he said: \u201cThere are services online that allow you connect a bitcoin wallet to what is essentially a prepaid Visa or Mastercard and when you swipe that at a location, it will deduct and basically sell off your bitcoin for whatever dollar amount you transacted. Therefore, if you buy a $12 pizza at John\u2019s, you would swipe your bitcoin Visa card that you got through a third party service and then all of a sudden [the third party] would sell $12 worth of your bitcoin and John\u2019s would authorize the transaction on your card.\u201d\nOwens became a certified bitcoin professional by the cryptocurrency certification consortium.\nEven though one of the pulls to bitcoin is to avoid third parties, there still lies the option for involvement with a middleman. But it\u2019s the ability to choose for yourself as an investor that makes the currency independent. An example of a third party buyer would be Coinbase, a mobile app that allows you to integrate your bitcoin wallet with their network, in which they sell your bitcoin and convert and transfer your money to a bank account.\nTherefore, since the technology is so young, there is still a need for some type of third party assistance to convert your earnings, however none of the money can be tracked or controlled by the government. And as bitcoin continues to grow, there may be more businesses that accept bitcoin directly.\n\u201cBusinesses would benefit from bitcoin by not having to pay transaction fees. A lot of small businesses use Square to accept credit cards.\nSquare takes 2.75 percent of your transaction from the merchant, so a lot of people end up having to pay more at a store because those sort of costs are built into the price of doing business,\u201d said Owens.\nWhen asked what differentiated bitcoin from other currencies, Edinboro business and economics professor Dr. Shuang Feng said: \u201cIt functions through the internet. That\u2019s what\u2019s special about bitcoin. It\u2019s also anonymous.\u201d\nAccording to The Wall Street Journal: \u201cCryptocurrency fans typically fall into two groups. One sees the currencies as ways to buy and sell things; the other views them as investments.\u201d\nA junior at Edinboro, Neve Laughery, used cryptocurrency as an investment. \u201cMy girlfriend and I mined for Ethereum for a short amount of time, using her graphics processing unit,\u201d he said. \u201cI wanted to learn more about what mining actually meant, especially in terms of Ethereum, which is known as an alternative to the quintessential cryptocurrency bitcoin. When people refer to cryptocurrency mining, they are usually referring to proof of work. [This allows] the cryptocurrency\u2019s network to use your system resources to perform complex algorithms in order to validate and secure transactions.\u201d\nHe continued: \u201cWith every block of bitcoin transactions that are processed, the user spends an amount to send the transaction and new bitcoin is distributed around the network to miners based on how much work their system has done. This means that more powerful machines can earn cryptocurrency.\u201d\nWhen asked if Laughery benefited from mining, he said, \u201cYeah, if we had sold at its peak, we would\u2019ve made about $100 per month.\u201d\nHe continued: \u201cI haven\u2019t sold, I\u2019m still holding in hope that the value will increase, but I will eventually use it to pay for one of the two. If not, [I\u2019ll use it] to fund a new laptop for school use.\u201d\nMining cryptocurrency was explained by Investopedia.com as: \u201cthe only way to release new cryptocurrency into circulation. In other words, miners are basically \u2018minting\u2019 currency.\u201d Bitcoin mining is the order in which transactions are certified and joined to a public ledger, otherwise known as the block chain. This process is comprised of complex algorithms which essentially functions as a puzzle.\nIn contrast to the stock market aspect, the currency feature of bitcoin allows users to access bitcoin ATMs, which operate like any conventional ATM in the sense that you are.\nRick Chernicky can be reached at eupnews.spectator@gmail.com.",

        "raw_content": "Screaming out with Smiles, The Beginning...\n\u200bNo one really knows the pain that others may be hiding. We look at one another, and make judgments. They are made based on what a person is wearing, where a person is from, or the way a person walks, talks, or interacts. How often do we stop to ask ourselves why a person is the way they are? Why is he so confident? Why is she so self-assured? Why is she so shy? Why does he seem dark and gloomy?\nI have always been known as perky, bubbly, and happy. Friends didn't understand that I could relate to their pain, and their fears. Many friends shied away from me when they felt their pain was beyond my comprehension. No one knew what I was hiding. I was labeled as Naive, even as an adult. When I went back to nursing school, I was seen as a know-it-all and way too perky. I hid behind \"perky\" and buried my pain in \"bubbly\".\nThe first time I became shattered, I was 5 years old. Boys in my neighborhood decided to use me like a toy, and then break me. The only reason I made it through was because of prayer, and my forgiving nature. It changed me. It scarred me.\nThere was a boy that was older. He lived across the street from us. He lived with his mom. We would often play together, and when we went to his house his mother was supposed to keep an eye on us. What could go wrong in the backyard? Behind the garage? He was supposed to be my playmate, my friend. I still get a chill with the name, \"Bobby\". Sometimes older boys would also come over to hang-out and play in Bobby's yard. At times they would also come over to our yard, but my mother seemed less than thrilled to have them there, so usually they would just talk to us in the front of the house or at Bobby's.\nOne day my sister was not with me, and I was in Bobby's yard playing. Bobby's older friends were showing off. The group of boys led me behind the garage. We were out of sight. I was 5 years old. With me standing there, they began to explain to Bobby what boys are supposed to do to girls. I remember them teasing Bobby, telling him he is not as \"developed\" as they were (in not such polite terms). I was confused about what was being said. They blocked my only path out of that small enclosed place. I was 5 years old. I remember the things they did to me that day, and the times that followed. I remember the way they acted out sexual intercourse, dry-humping me through my clothes. I remember the tallest boy putting his hand down the back of my shorts. I remember all of the touching, kissing, and pain that followed. As the boys became more confident that they would not get caught, future interactions would be more invasive. They would keep pushing their limits, and hurt me more.\nAt the end of that first interaction, one of the boys pressed a lit cigarette against my right upper arm. I was told not to tell. It was his way of warning me that this could never be spoken of. I still have the scar. I was given more scars at later dates. I was told that my family would get hurt if I told. I was told that they would kill me dog if I told. I was burned with lighters, and cigarettes at future \"play dates\". I was threatened with a blade. The marks on my body didn't even come in to question by the adults in my life. I was accident prone. I had a habit of getting hurt. They looked like my many other wounds of play. I rarely complained about cuts, bruises, and scrapes.\nMy mother had no clue this was happening. I remember my mom taking us across the street to Bobby's Birthday party. It was in his backyard. Adults were present. I remember trying to go across the monkey bars. I remember his mom and my mom standing close, talking. My brain was that of a small child. This time I went untouched, so I thought that maybe things were different. No, it didn't end. That day was just a day of false hope. The boys would continue to come across the street in the future, take my hand, and take me back behind the garage. I was taught how to touch them. I was told instructions that I had to follow without making a peep. One of them was always keeping an eye out, and an ear open for a parent to walk over or call out our names. I suffered pains. My young brain was taught about sex before it was capable of processing it all.\nI tried to tell my parents, without actually saying the words. Around the age of 6 years old I attempted to write a letter. I wrote a letter to myself. I put it in the mailbox like regular, every day mail. My dad found it. I remember him telling me that mail cannot go out without a stamp. I don't even know if I was able to write or spell very well at that age, but I remember what I had tried to express. I remember that I had wanted to write about kissing, and sex, and the penises I was forced to look at, touch, and do multiple things to. I wrote about pain. I did not have a word for \"rape\" yet. I wrote about nudity. I wrote the letter as if one of those boys had written it to me. I knew if my parents saw a letter to me containing such vulgar subjects it would have to raise questions. The letter must have been unreadable, just a bunch of child scribbles with words missing letters, because when I saw that letter in my dad's hands, instead of it being my saving grace, it was a lesson on how to send mail properly.\nI never tried to tell anyone again. My cat had been shot in the head by a BB gun. Most likely, it was unrelated, but as a kid, I thought it was because I had tried to tell. They had told me they would kill my pets. I became very fearful of the dark, and of being in my room alone. They told me that they could see me when I was in my room. They told me that they watched me in the dark. When I would get sent to my room for misbehaving I would cry. I was so afraid. I would sit and stare out the window, even if it was pitch black. I would swear that I could see demon eyes in the sky, or ghost. I would begin to pray, and I would just sit there, frozen, staring in to the night. When I would go to bed at night I would make sure my blankets would completely cocoon me. I would make sure not one bit of my body was exposed. Something would surely grab my feet, or my hands. Something would surely hurt me in the dark. I was terrified of dark rooms, and walking past dark doors. My confidence was shattered. I was scared now of everything. We moved from the city when I was 7 years old, and Bobby had moved prior, but the fear never left with him.\nI found strength in church, and in prayer. When I would get more and more fearful over the years I would play my christian music, and hide beneath blankets. I would pray out-loud, and I would pray in my head in silence. When I would be in a social situation, I would talk. I dealt with the anxiety that I would feel building up in me by talking, and by being perky. Soon people identified me as a perky, happy person. This seemed like such a positive, so I always tried to be the perky, happy girl. People also got annoyed by me though, because I talked too much.\nWho would I have been if I had not experienced such a horrible thing at such an early age? Would I have such low self-esteem and live my life hating everything about myself? I looked in the mirror and saw a Plain-Jane. I hated the sound of my voice. I hated that I wasn't athletic enough, or smart enough. I became fearful of playing my trombone out-loud outside of a large group. If someone could single me out in the crowd, I was terrified. I was never pretty enough. I was never enough. I was only 5 years old when my whole future would be effected by a few horrible boys. I was only 5 years old when I felt a large part of who I was begin to die inside. I was now left to move forward with big, ugly scars. I can barely see the physical scars that were left on my arms (I will show them to you if you ask), but the scars on my soul are there. I can feel them. They are some of those breaks that were repaired with gold that I spoke of in \"Beautifully Broken\".\nI must keep in mind that each time I was broken I was made stronger! This was only the first of many painful moments. I am stronger because of each and every one. I see the ways that I am a strong woman. I also worry though that learning to survive at such a young age dulled some of my emotions. I had turned off some of my reactions to horrendous situations. At times, when I watch the news, I feel that I should be more emotional than I am. At times I feel that I give off the wrong reaction at the wrong times. But I survived. I continue to survive. I have just begun to really live. This is why I am like I am.",

        "title": "How Helsinki became a 'Mobility as a Service' leader | Eltis",
        "raw_content": "Home > Discover > News > How Helsinki became a 'Mobility as a Service' leader\nHow Helsinki became a 'Mobility as a Service' leader\nHelsinki is often held up for being the first city to offer a comprehensive Mobility-as-a-Service (MaaS) offering. The aim of MaaS is a bold one: to compete with car ownership and eventually make the need for a personal car obsolete by offering a better service and experience. How does this new approach to urban mobility work? Let us take a look at the story of one of the many people in Helsinki who have changed their mobility behaviour thanks to the MaaS option that has been put in place.\nHarri Nieminen has been using his car in Helsinki for the last nine years. Challenges, such as parking problems, especially in the winter when there is a lot of snow, and the fact that his car was hardly ever in use made him rethink his mobility behaviour. So he exchanged his car for an app \u2013 the MaaS service provided by Whim in Helsinki. After only a few months - from autumn to New Year\u2019s Eve, Mr Nieminen decided to get rid of his car in favour of MaaS, combined with a car-sharing offer. \u201cIt\u2019s made moving about easier. I can switch modes of transport as needed, and I no longer need to worry about where I\u2019ve left the car or the bike, or about driving it home,\u201d he states.\nMaaS is expected to be one of the biggest game changers in urban mobility. Its elements are for the large part existing services, such as trip planning, ride hailing and car-sharing, as well as seamless booking, ticketing and payment. The trick about MaaS is to provide all of these services connected to different transport modes in one app, which also includes the ability to pay for all of these services.\nIn the case of Helsinki, users can choose between three options: the all-inclusive service for \u20ac499 / month; a service consisting of only unlimited bus travel and short city bike rides for \u20ac49 / month, which also includes price reductions for taxis and rental cars; and a pay-per-ride option that enables users to test the MaaS service. Currently, the MaaS service for Helsinki has 45,000 users with 5,100 paying monthly fees. According to Whim, the service operator, if 3% to 5% of the total population of the region used a monthly package, it would be financially viable. This would be about 60,000 monthly users and with this figure, Whim would be able to buy transport services in bulk from the providers and then package these to individual clients.\nHelsinki is at the forefront of the development of MaaS, as a result of combination of conditions, including: Helsinki has a well-functioning public transport network and has limited space for roads and parking due to its confined space, as it is surrounded by the Baltic Sea on three sides. The Finnish transport ministry\u2019s strategy also had a MaaS component in its legislation, which has been in place since 2011, while public transport providers offer free access to their data and have paperless ticketing in place. These elements were a good basis for the development of new transport service offerings.\nMaaS is already being introduced in other citeis, such as Birmingham (UK) and Antwerp (BE). More cities are interested in implementing similar services, including Amsterdam, Vienna, Munich and Berlin. There is also interest in such services from the US. With the growing number of services being offered and the increasing availability of mobility options, the attractiveness and use of MaaS will only increase.\nImage source: \u00a9 Grisha Bruev / Shutterstock.com\nStory first published by \u201cwww.bloombergquint.com\u201d on 16th of July 2018.",

        "title": "Yocto, Android, Ubuntu Core Linux Distro Features Outweigh Footprint in Embedded Systems",
        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Hardware \u00bb Embedded Linux: Features outweigh footprint\nEmbedded Linux: Features outweigh footprint\nAugust 2, 2017 Brandon Lewis, Technology Editor\nFor original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and their customers, the features and flexibility of Linux distributions like Yocto, Android, and Ubuntu Core outweigh the limitations of their footprint in embedded and Internet of Things (IoT) system designs.\nThe \u201cfree\u201d one. For development projects, this has always been a big advantage of using a Linux operating system (OS). It\u2019s also open source, stable, and a bunch of other things you already know.\nWhat you also probably know is that Linux was not originally intended for use in embedded systems. In most scenarios the determinism of Linux can be described as \u201csoft real time\u201d at best. Tuning the Linux kernel to a specific processor or application has also traditionally required a fair amount of in-house development expertise, as building and cross compiling a system is no trivial task. Importantly, even the most conservative Linux implementations typically require at least several megabytes of RAM.\nIn parallel, though, embedded systems have changed. Many embedded systems today include graphical user interfaces (GUIs) and incorporate embedded web servers \u2013 features that in the past may have disqualified them as embedded systems altogether. To support these functions, and with a little help from Moore\u2019s Law, it\u2019s not uncommon today to find embedded systems based on multicore system on chips (SoCs) that integrate graphics processing units (GPUs), more RAM, and memory management units (MMUs). These phenomena gave embedded Linux an inch in applications like medical, transportation, robotics, digital signage, and communications, and it has taken a mile (and counting).\nBut now that Linux has arrived in embedded, the emphasis is on ease and efficiency so that engineers spend more time developing applications, less time tinkering with the underlying OS, and still retain the flexibility of open source. The Linux community and hardware vendors continue to push for this equilibrium with roll your own Linux distribution development environments like the Yocto Project.\n\u201cThe concept of a distribution is a kind of pre-selection of packages; a pre-selection of policies, applications, and ways of working. All of those things are actually fixed by your distribution,\u201d says Alex Gonzalez, Supervisor of Software Engineering at Digi International. \u201cWith something like Debian Linux you get a distribution that generates a binary package, and all you get as a user is a set of binary that you install with a package management tool.\n\u201cWith Yocto, you are actually building all those packages,\u201d he continues. \u201cWhat that means is that you have complete control over the source.\u201d\nRYO embedded Linux distro\nAlthough distributions like Debian, Red Hat, and Yocto are all based off similar open source components, Yocto allows software engineers to select all of the configuration options in a given build. Direct control over the source code of a Yocto distribution also means that developers don\u2019t have to go through the intensive process of generating new binaries, attaining the source code, then modifying, repackaging, integrating, and maintaining their own version of the binary distribution. They also don\u2019t have to rely on the greater Linux community to implement fixes tailored to embedded systems that may not be viewed as a priority.\nThe possibility of custom distributions in Yocto is largely thanks to semiconductor manufacturers\u2019 intimate involvement in the project, including Intel, NXP, Texas Instruments, Renesas, Xilinx, AMD, and others. This has resulted in provisions for a lot of embedded processor functionality being integrated into the Yocto software ecosystem, which increases portability and makes for a smoother out of the box experience.\nDigi International, for example, leverages a Yocto layer to enable the secure boot features of the NXP i.MX6 processor on its ConnectCore 6 module (Figure 1). As a result, a complete security framework \u2013 from bootup to secure JTAG \u2013 is available as a Yocto filesystem that is very easy to implement.\nFigure 1. Silicon vendors have added support for embedded processor features to the Yocto Project. This allows users to take advantage of functionality such as secure boot on the NXP i.MX6-based ConnectCore 6 module from Digi International.\nSecure updates with Ubuntu\nAlso along the lines of security, remote updates have become a major selling point for Internet of Things (IoT) devices. Remote firmware update capability allows device manufacturers to add features and patch vulnerabilities after devices have been deployed in the field, but the very process itself consists of its own security challenges. For instance, if an update is interrupted, firmware files could be corrupted and the OS may not boot again. On the other hand, a new firmware version or application could also introduce security loopholes.\nWhile certain companies offer remote update solutions and others choose to develop their own, the open source Ubuntu Core OS allows them to be performed automatically. Ubuntu Core is based on a unique architecture that divides the OS kernel, the core Ubuntu OS, and applications into isolated packages called \u201csnaps.\u201d In connected systems, these snaps can regularly check for updates and download them individually, which helps ensure that all system components are up to date and include the latest patches.\nThough automatic remote updates may be disconcerting for some, Ubuntu Core provides a two-fold advantage in terms of security. First, during the OS update process, Ubuntu Core actually downloads full copies of the new kernel and core OS snap versions, which are verified before the existing OS is replaced. This helps ensure that even if connection is lost or the download is interrupted, the system can fall back to the OS that\u2019s running without corrupting the system.\nThe second advantage is that the isolation of components helps maintain the integrity of the overall system should an application be compromised.\n\u201cUbuntu Core pioneered AppArmor, and that allows for a lot of application confinement,\u201d says Mark Featherston, Embedded Engineer at Technologic Systems. \u201cIf an app does happen to get broken into, it\u2019s going to be very hard to do a whole lot with the system running as just a single application. It limits the effectiveness of an attack on the system.\u201d\nFor its part, Technologic Systems\u2019 TS-7970 single-board computer (SBC) runs Ubuntu Core, which provides rich networking support and secure upgrade capability for platforms such as Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) gateways (Figure 2).\nFigure 2. The TS-7970 is an NXP i.MX6-based SBC that runs the Ubuntu Core OS to provide rich networking support and secure remote updates for connected embedded systems in the industrial sector.]\nTraining and tools get Linux off the ground\nUnderstanding and appropriately configuring development tools for a Linux-based system design can be as challenging as selecting the distribution itself. Open source development tools come with the same challenges as open source OS distributions in terms of documentation and reliance on the community for fixes, which can be a significant hurdle when facing the time to market pressures of a commercial product release.\nThe Android ecosystem in particular is one area where embedded developers can encounter problems with development tools, as most of the available tools and documentation focus on creating applications rather than working with the underlying OS itself. As Andrew Girson, Co-Founder and CEO of embedded training firm Barr Group explains, \u201cOne of the big challenges of Android is just, \u2018How do I set up the computer to do this?\u2019\u201d\n\u201cWhen it comes to open source projects you\u2019re often dealing with open source tools,\u201d Girson says. \u201cSo it\u2019s not just Linux or Android. It\u2019s the compiler, it\u2019s the linker, it\u2019s the builder, it\u2019s these other utilities, and some of it is very command-line oriented and not very user friendly. Depending on what\u2019s being used, some of this is not very well documented.\u201d\nBarr Group provides technical training courses for prospective Android developers through its \u201cEmbedded Android Bootcamp,\u201d a four-day immersion course on the ins and outs of Android bringup on embedded hardware. Scheduled trainings are taking place August 21-24 and November 6-9 in Germantown, MD and Detroit, MI, respectively.\n\u201cThe course is for people who want to get Android up and running on their device, which means setting up a build environment for the Android OS,\u201d Girson says. \u201cRunning the tools, working with the bootloader, working with the device drivers, loading the OS, and creating an environment so that your embedded device can run Android.\n\u201cConfiguring all of those tools and setting all of that up is a challenge,\u201d Girson explains. \u201cThe more you understand about these things ahead of time, the less likely you are to end up in a bad place later.\u201d\nCertain embedded hardware vendors also offer development tools that help software engineers more easily interface OS distributions with their products. For example, the Digi ConnectCore Smart IOmux is a graphical, distribution-agnostic development application that simplifies pin muxing on modules like the ConnectCore 6UL (Figures 3A and 3B).\nFigures 3A and 3B. The Digi ConnectCore Smart IOmux is a distribution agnostic Eclipse-based pin mux configuration tool for ConnectCore 6UL modules and other embedded hardware from Digi International.\nEmbedded Linux: Features over footprint\nAs processing capabilities, connectivity, and user expectations advance, the features of Linux will begin to outweigh its footprint in the decision-making process for many embedded system. In some cases, Linux variants can even be viewed as a reliable option for embedded systems.\n\u201cIt does add a larger footprint, but it grants you reliability though,\u201d says Featherston. \u201cThat seems to be far more important than a smaller footprint to many people.\u201d\n10 years ago embedded Linux was in the proverbial playground. It has officially reached production.\nAutomotive ECUs: Architecture considerations to implement secure software updates over the air\nWith increasing recognition that our cars are evolving into rolling data centers, manufacturers are faced w...",

        "raw_content": "Choosing the Cluster Type that's Right For You - Page 3\nServer clusters, like most other things in Windows 2000, are modular in nature. They are made up of nodes, groups, and resources. As you might expect, a node is simply a server that is a part of the cluster. A group is a unit of fail over. Each group contains a collection of resources, or objects that can be brought online or taken offline. A group is owned by a node, and all resources within a group run on the same node that owns the group. If any one resource within a group fails, all resources in the group will be temporarily moved to a different node until the cause of failure is resolved.\nYou might wonder how Windows 2000 knows how and when to move groups between nodes. It does so using something called the Quorum Resource. The Quorum Resource exists on an NTFS partition within the shared hard disk array. It is basically a collection of all the cluster's configuration information, fail-over policies, and recovery logs.\nAs with NLB servers, there are several different ways to configure server clusters. I'll dedicate an upcoming article to configuring NLB servers. Then, I'll continue the series with an article on configuring server clusters. These articles will touch on such issues as the various server configuration models available and how to do capacity planning for each type of server. //",

        "title": "The EQualizer Post: Why does the world view despots like Duterte as jokes?",
        "raw_content": "Why does the world view despots like Duterte as jokes?\nWe view dictators, like Rodrigo Duterte, with comedy to pacify our ignorance of their crimes\nFrom The Independent (UK)\nPresident Rodrigo Duterte of the Philippines uses crude and offensive language (\u201cson of a whore\u201d) to insult the most powerful man on God\u2019s earth; President Obama is, rightly, offended; an important bi-lateral meeting between close allies is cancelled. The whole world has a laugh.\nUnderstandable, I suppose. But the damage done by Duterte to his own nation and people is less well appreciated. I admit he won an election to gain power, but I do wonder how free and democratic the Republic of the Philippines is these days, and for how long. This is a man who sanctions mass extra-judicial killings \u2013 or murders, to use plain language. In his (undeniably popular) war on the Philippines\u2019 rampant drugs trade, he has promised medals to any member of the public who shoots a drug dealer. Since he took office in June, some 650 people have been killed by police, with as many as 900 more thought to have been slain by vigilantes. Human rights in the Philippines?\nThe UN Special Rapporteur on summary executions, Agnes Callamard, has urged the Filipino authorities \u201cto adopt with immediate effect the necessary measures to protect all persons from targeted killings and extrajudicial executions\u201d, adding: \u201cClaims to fight illicit drug trade do not absolve the Government from its international legal obligations, and do not shield State actors or others from responsibility for illegal killings.\u201d\nSo not so funny, then \u2013 the execution of many hundreds, and thousands in their families bereaved, and all denied justice or due process of law. Nor is the increasing threat the Philippines faces from an ambitious China terribly humorous. That political and geopolitical damage is the real problem with Duterte the buffoon \u2013 and with our attitude to him and his like.\nIt prompts the question: why do we regard so many despots and dictators as jokes? Why do we remember Benito Mussolini as a posturing fat fantasist rather than the man who dropped blistering mustard gas on 100,000 Ethiopians?\nWell, in many cases it is easy to see why. It helps trivialise them, and if we can mock them we score a little victory: sadism is often accompanied by a thin skin. When Kim Jong-un learned that one of his ministers was carousing round Pyongyang during the official mourning period for his father, he ordered him to be put to death and with \"no trace of him behind, down to his hair\u201d. This unfortunate servant of the Korean people was forced to stand on a spot that had been zeroed in for a mortar round and \u201cobliterated\u201d. More recently, Kim suspected another official had dozed off in his presence. This time, a battery of anti-aircraft guns was deployed for another literal vaporisation. We know all this is evil and appalling, and yet we find the inventiveness of the Kim mind blackly funny, and these atrocities were reported in the western media in the manner of after-dinner anecdotes from the late Peter Ustinov or Richard Attenborough.\nOne of the great hit movies of the Second World War was Charlie Chaplin in The Great Dictator, playing a facsimile of Hitler as a comical little man, and the most popular ditty based on the notion that \u201cHitler has only got one ball\u201d (\u201cand Goebbels has got no balls at all\u201d); and most western cartoons of Mugabe, Kim and, now, Duterte, portray them more often than not as global village idiots. And that they do seem. After all these characters , and their more distant forebears such as Robespierre, Ivan the Terrible or Genghis Khan, didn\u2019t get where they got to without being vainglorious, pompous, foolish looking, sometimes illiterate, and always eccentric \u2013 and thus figures of fun, if you\u2019re at a sufficiently safe distance in time or space.\nDuterte: \"Catholicism would be pass\u00e9 in 30 yrs!\"\nPhilippine President Dutert said Catholicism would be pass\u00e9 in 30 years!\n\"That religion will become pass\u00e9 in the next 30 years lalo na pag lumabas na ang abuses nila,\" he said.\nDuterte has long been critical of the Catholic Church, whose leaders have repeatedly spoken against his bloody campaign against illegal drugs. From ABS-CBN News\nRodrigo Duterte jokes to soldiers that they can rape women with impunity\n\u2018If you had raped three, I will admit it, that\u2019s on me\u2019 Philippines president tells soldiers on Mindanao island where he has imposed martial law.\nPhilippines President Rodrigo Duterte has sought to reassure soldiers who might be accused of committing abuses under martial law and jokingly said that if any of them were to rape three women, he would personally claim responsibility for it.\nDuterte is notorious for comments often deemed offensive and made the remark as a joke, reiterating that only he would be liable for any backlash over military rule on southern Mindanao island. He has, however, said he would not tolerate abuses.\n\u201cIf you go down, I go down. But for this martial law and the consequences of martial law and the ramifications of martial law, I and I alone would be responsible, just do your job I will take care of the rest,\u201d Duterte said on Friday, according to a president\u2019s office transcript.\n\u201cI\u2019ll imprison you myself,\u201d he said, referring to any soldiers who commit violations, then he joked: \u201cIf you had raped three, I will admit it, that\u2019s on me.\u201d\nDuterte made the remark in a speech to soldiers on Mindanao island, where he imposed martial law on Tuesday to try to crush Islamic State-linked rebels, who have been battling the military after laying siege to a southern city.\nIt was not the first time Duterte has made a joke about rape. He caused outrage in the lead-up to his presidential election win last year when he recalled a 1989 prison riot in which an Australian missionary was killed, and inmates had lined up to rape her.\nIn what was intended as a joke, Duterte said the victim was \u201cbeautiful\u201d and as mayor of Davao city where the riot took place, he should have been first in line. He later apologised and said he did not intend to disrespect women or rape victims.\nAnother Hitler?\nPhilippines President Rodrigo Duterte appeared to liken himself to Nazi leader Adolf Hitler and said he would \"be happy\" to exterminate 3 million drug users and peddlers in the country.\nNoting that Hitler had murdered millions of Jews, Duterte said,\n\"There are 3 million drug addicts (in the Philippines). I'd be happy to slaughter them.\n\"If Germany had Hitler, the Philippines would have ...,\" he said, pausing and pointing to himself.\n\"You know my victims. I would like (them) to be all criminals to finish the problem of my country and save the next generation from perdition.\" Reuters (Sept.30, 2016)\nDigong says he doesn\u2019t mind being likened to Idi Amin\nPresident Duterte says he doesn\u2019t mind being likened to the late Ugandan dictator Idi Amin Dada, whose murderous regime was blamed by human rights activists for the deaths of anywhere from 100,000 to 500,000 people in his African country in the 1970s.\nMr. Duterte reiterated his intention to end the country\u2019s problems on criminality, illegal drugs and corruption when he spoke to his classmates from San Beda College of Law.\n\u201cI don\u2019t care \u2026 I know that \u2026 I will retire with the reputation of Idi Amin,\u201d Mr. Duterte said in his speech. \u201cI don\u2019t expect you to keep faith in me or to believe in me all the time but \u2026 God is there. I have never killed an innocent human being. Never. I don\u2019t like it.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Astris Energi Completes Fuel Cell-Powered Golf Cart on Time\nASTRICART is designed for use in a wide variety of small vehicles and eliminates costly and time-consuming battery charging required in electric carts and the noise and pollution caused by gasoline-powered carts, the company says.\nAstris Energi Inc. (OTC: ASRF), a leading developer of alkaline fuel cell power systems, Tuesday reported that its fuel cell-powered golf cart, the first such vehicle in the world, was completed and tested on the company's test track last Friday, March 30, a day ahead of schedule.\n\"This represents the successful culmination of a six-month-long project,\" said Jiri K. Nor, president. In that short period, the alkaline fuel cell engine, Model E6, was designed, engineered and built, and an electric golf cart was modified for fuel cell propulsion.\nThe E6 engine was integrated early in March and has been extensively bench tested over the past two weeks. Modifications in the golf cart were also completed last month, with installation of the engine and in-vehicle tests occurring last week, Nor reported.\nFuel cells generate electric power by combining hydrogen gas with oxygen from the air. They require no other fuel, are noiseless and produce no pollutants. Their only by-product is pure water, Nor noted.\nThe company's new \"ASTRICART,\" designed for use in a wide variety of small vehicles, eliminates costly and time-consuming battery charging required in electric carts and the noise and pollution caused by gasoline-powered carts, Nor explained. The E6 power source fits under the seat and the bottle of compressed hydrogen gas is hidden from view in the rear of the cart.\nEngineers in Astris' headquarters here and in its affiliate company in the Czech Republic have also designed, produced and field tested a compact alkaline fuel cell system, the first of its kind, to provide electricity, heat and hot water for individual homes, motorhomes and boats, plus a portable power source for use in remote locations.\nBoth of these have been in experimental use by units of the Czech government since last year.\nAstris intends to engage in joint ventures or licensing arrangements with major manufacturers of various small vehicles, residential and motorhome electrical systems, and other equipment needing self-contained power sources, Nor concluded.",

        "raw_content": "March 9, 2011 by Brian Downie under the topic of: Faith Technologies, Safety\nFaith Technologies recently hosted a customer appreciation workshop aimed at supporting our customer\u2019s needs with electrical safety. Since 2002, we have found that these workshops are very helpful to employees in all industry sectors including food processing, healthcare, heavy industrial, and commercial.\nTwo topics of discussion emerged from this recent workshop: an increased need to implement and support workplace electrical safety, and the Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) directive.\nSupporting Workplace Electrical Safety: OSHA actively enforces the 1910 Sub Part S 300 to promote electrical safety. Employees are responsible for using the NFPA 70E code book to ensure compliance. While the code book can appear to be open-ended at times, we identified ways to correctly address this code. We performed an in class break-out session on the proper use of energized work permits and how they pertain to daily operations in most facilities, etc.\nOSHA\u2019s Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Directive: This is something that has not been clearly defined since 2000, and now OSHA has given employers new guidelines on what they are required to provide employees to ensure safety in the electrical field. For example, the PPE clothing changes to meet the needs of that piece of equipment. Safety restrictions are very important to follow when working in any hazard category. Using proper protection ensures that the company is following code regulations, and the safety of the employee is in their best interest. Each label should specify the PPE required for that piece of equipment.\nWe had great participation and much discussion on what should be done to maintain compliance in the workplace. We also reviewed examples of two essential documents employees should have on file: company safety policies and contractor qualification programs.\nAs a partner in safety with all of our customers, Faith Technologies will continue to provide value-added workshops on electrical safety. It is our goal to host these events at various locations throughout the Midwest. Stay tuned for further information.",

The microsatellite is expected to stay in orbit for approximately 20 months.\nDavid said that in the next few days, the public would see the first images of the country taken by Diwata-1.\nHe said that Diwata-1\u2019s deployment into space was also a \u201cmilestone\u201d for the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency as it was the first time it deployed a 50-kilogram class satellite from Kibo, paving the way for the future launches of other microsatellites.\n\u201cJapan is celebrating with us. Though they have sent many satellites on their own, this is one of their first collaborations. They feel this is something new to them as well, hence they share the pride and the accomplishment we\u2019ve made,\u201d David told the Inquirer.\nIn the first few weeks of Diwata-1 in space, it will be controlled by engineers at Tohoku University. The DOST official said that within May, control will be transferred to the Philippine Earth Data Resources Observation (Pedro) at UP Diliman. SFM. Inquirer.net",

The trained jurist should unfold his artistic talent merely from an auto-didactic training. In general, the permanent potential for artistic renewal and the incessant quest for means of artistic expression are among Adolf Luther's most striking characteristics. While serving in World War II, Adolf Luther began to make drawings. Afterwards his range of artistic rendering reached from Cubist works over expressive art that followed the Informel, to paintings with pastose colors. In the following years, as of around the 1960s, he made impressive glass-, mirror-, light- and laser objects, which, on the one hand, play with the observer's perception and can be ascribed to Op Art accordingly, on the other hand they are close to Concrete Art, because of their seriality. The Adolf-Luther-Foundation, which was called to life by the artist, conserves the remarkable oeuvre of Adolf Luther, which is also represented in renowned collections. Additionally, the foundation supports young artists .",

It is sad to think about those who have left this world. Instead of crying over our loss; let\u2019s take what we learned from those folks and make our affirmations for the New Year.\nMy grandmother passed away in October. She lived to be almost ninety-eight years old. The one thing she always taught us was to be nice. She would tell us that if you can\u2019t say anything nice then say nothing at all. That is a very hard lesson to learn but once you do, your life becomes so much easier.\nWe have all mourned the loss of the precious children from Sandy Hook Elementary School. Each one of those parents kissed their children goodbye that morning not knowing that it would be the last time. This broke my heart for all of us. It is so important that we not only tell our family how much we care for them but that we show them.\nWith our busy life-style we get caught up in the chaos! This stress causes us to be short with our family and with ourselves. We beat ourselves up when we make mistakes. Our perfectionism causes us to be our own worst enemy. This has got to stop!\nThere is a Bible verse that says, Let all things be done decently and in order. For me this means that things need to be done and they don\u2019t have to be perfect. The \u201corder\u201d is talking about routines. Take your daily habits and put them into three step routines. This gets things done. These simple three step routines will help you to release the stress that causes you to be mean to yourself and others. Write them down on Post-It Notes and place them around your home. This will help you to dance through you day with joy!\nMy goal for us is to be kinder to ourselves, to our family, in text, and on Facebook and Twitter. Being kind in thought, word, and deed will make this world a better place 2013!\nI have been working on a motto for 2013. Here is what I have come up with; Words can be kind or mean; the choice is yours in 2013!\nPlease take my words to heart and let\u2019s make 2013 the year of kindness!",

        "title": "MEMORIAL DAY IN AMERICA TAKES LAST GASP, THEN DIES >> Four Winds 10 - Truth Winds",
        "raw_content": "MEMORIAL DAY IN AMERICA TAKES LAST GASP, THEN DIES\nSpecial Report from Sistr Ciara\nThomas Jefferson (1743-1826), 25th President of the United States and American Founding Father who was the principal author of the Declaration of Independence\nIn 1821, the American Founding Father Thomas Jefferson warned the citizens of his new nation that their destruction would be assured once they saw Washington D.C. become the center of all power.\nForty years later, in 1861, what Jefferson warned about came true when President Abraham Lincoln consolidated all government power to himself, and when the southern States objected to him doing so, Lincoln launched the deadliest war in American history that killed an estimated 900,000, men, women and children.\nShortly after this war, that cost more American lives than all of that nations wars combined, a Memorial Day was established to honor these dead, but, and most sadly, it has taken its last breath and died.\nThe answer as to why Memorial Day died lies in America\u2019s biggest \u2013 and scariest \u2013 problem: Most Americans no longer know what America stands for. For them, America has become just another country, a place located between Canada and Mexico.\nBut America was founded to be an idea, not another country.\nAs Margaret Thatcher put it: \u201cEurope was created by history. America was created by philosophy.\u201d\nWhy haven\u2019t Americans over the past three generations known what America stands for? Probably the biggest reason is the influence of left-wing ideas.\nSince its inception, the Left has opposed the American idea, and for good reason. Everything the American idea represents undermines leftist ideas. And the Left, unlike most Americans, has always understood that either the Left is right or America is right.\nAmerica stands for small government, a free economy (and therefore capitalism), liberty (and it therefore allows for liberty\u2019s inevitable consequence, inequality), the \u201cmelting pot\u201d ideal, and a God-centered population rooted in Christian values (so that a moral society is created by citizens exercising self-control rather than relying on the state to impose controls).\nOnly America was founded on the idea of small government. But the Left is based on big government.\nAmericawas founded on the principle that human rights come from the Creator. For the Left, rights come from the state.\nAmericawas founded on the belief that in order to maintain a small government, a God-fearing people is necessary.\nThe Left opposes God-based religions, particularly the Christian religion. Secularism is at the core of Leftism every bit as much as egalitarianism is.\nThe American Revolution, unlike the French Revolution, placed liberty above equality.\nFor the Left, equality is more important than all else. That\u2019s why so many American and European leftists have celebrated left-wing regimes, no matter how much they squelched individual liberty, from Stalin to Mao to Che and Castro to Hugo Ch\u00e1vez. They all preached equality.\nIt took generations, but the Left has succeeded (primarily through the schools, but also through the media) in substituting its values for America\u2019s.\nWhile the Left has been the primary cause, there have been others. The most significant is success. American values were so successful that Americans came to take America\u2019s success for granted. They forgot what made America uniquely free and affluent.\nAnd now, it\u2019s not even accurate to say \u201cforgot\u201d, because, in the case of the current generation, they never knew.\nWhile the schools, starting with the universities, were being transformed into institutions for left-wing indoctrination, American parents, too, ceased teaching their children American values (beginning with not reading to their children the most popular book in American history, the Bible).\nSchools even stopped teaching American history. When American history is taught today, it is taught as a history of oppression, imperialism, and racism.\nLikewise, there is essentially no civics education, once a staple of the American public-school system. Young Americans are not taught either the Constitution or how American government works.\nI doubt many college students even know what \u201cseparation of powers\u201d means, let alone why it is so significant.\nSo, then, thanks to leftism and America\u2019s taken-for-granted success, most Americans no longer understand what it means to be an American\u2014and with that being so, Memorial Day is now dead.\nNow I want to tell you a secret\u2014as sure as Jefferson was in warning the American people what would happen once all power was concentrated in Washington D.C., he then warned them what was going to happen next: \u201cThe tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.\u201d\nJefferson\u2019s warning wasn\u2019t just based on his knowledge of America, but all of human history that has repeatedly shown that there is an absolute limit on how corrupt any government could become before its citizens revolted.\nThe storm clouds of this revolt, also you should know, have now gathered to such an extent the world over that soon (and much sooner than you can believe) a rain of blood will fall so terrifying and horrific it will only be able to be described in Biblical apocalyptic words and images.\nYou American\u2019s, of course, and by deliberate design, have little to no knowledge of this revolt to come, but the same can\u2019t be said of your government who over the past few years have stockpiled billions-of-rounds of ammunition to use against you\u2014after all, these rulers know Jefferson\u2019s truths too.\nSo, here is my advice to all of you, START PAYING ATTENTION! Granted, and this you know is true too, you are NEVER going to be warned about what is going to happen before it does, but that\u2019s what we\u2019re here for!\nEven while you sleep, we never stop working on your behalf to keep you as current and up to date as humanly possible as to notthe only what is happening, but will happen in the future.\nHowever, and as always, the massive costs for us being able to do this is way beyond us, and is only possible with your help\u2014which we need RIGHT NOW!\nMy plea, therefore, to all of you reading these words, is for each and everyone of you to give what you can today so that we may survive to continue our mission in helping you be as prepared as possible\u2014and that you know we\u2019re practically the only ones left doing.\nHave great peace with God,\nhttp://whatdoesitmean.com/\nA Reservist in a New War, Against Foreclosure (Updated 7-11-18)\nVA Pays Big Bucks to Reimburse Business for Ending Illegal Contracts at L.A.

        "raw_content": "Education and Careers Regardless of your preference relative to an educational program, it is with great certainty that I believe you can find one that suits your needs.\nVirginia Ware Myers\nExecutive Director, The National Association of Women MBAs\nWhile the online MBA has been around for years, it wasn\u2019t until recently that it has gotten to a place where it\u2019s garnered the same respect as a traditional MBA. For years, for-profit institutions like Kaplan University, University of Phoenix and the Jack Welch Management Institute have dominated this area of education.\nSeeing the rise in popularity of these programs, many brick-and-mortar institutions followed suit and are now offering MBA programs, as well as Carnegie Mellon\u2019s Tepper School of Business, UNC Kenan-Flagler School of Business, Duke University\u2019s Fuqua School of Business and the Kelley School of Business at Indiana University, among others.\nWhile women are working hard to close the wage gap, lean in, break the glass ceiling and get into the C-suite, the online MBA program has become a viable option for women, with many priorities. Why should you consider an online MBA program?\nOnline programs allow you to work at your own pace. You get to choose how much time you will allocate for the program based on your life. You can keep your job, your salary and spend nights and weekends working towards a degree that, once obtained, will equip you with better bargaining power within your current job.\nOne of the main reasons women are flocking to online programs in record numbers is because it gives them the option of continuing to raise their families while they complete or further their education. As more and more moms tap into online learning, they realize a couple of things: one, an MBA sets them up to advance their career and, two, once their child-rearing days are over, their options and possibilities are quite endless.\nOne serious consideration in obtaining an MBA is the cash (or loans) required. Many of the for-profit institutions are significantly cheaper than the brick-and-mortar MBA programs that are adding online instruction to their offerings. Some employers subsidize the cost, while others may pay 100 percent of the costs. The return on investment (ROI) oftentimes outweighs the upfront cost.\nAn online MBA can change your life. In addition to the previously mentioned considerations, an online MBA can position you to be more marketable. Possibilities will begin to surface. Things will happen to you and for you. This level of education sets you apart and exposes you to people and opportunities.\nThe first step is to decide what you want out of life. Next, consider what it may take to get it and create a plan. Finally, consider the role an online MBA could play in helping you to accomplish your goals without sacrificing your career or family. It\u2019s a non-traditional approach that works.\nVirginia Ware Myers, Executive Director, The National Association of Women MBAs,\nMaking the decision to pursue an MBA isn\u2019t made in a heartbeat.

        "raw_content": "Northeastern University Is Changing its Curriculum to Build Smarter Cities\nEducation and Careers Cutting-edge technologies are increasingly being used in modern urban planning, and that culture shift is being reflected in our universities as well.\nDo you know how smart is your city is? Is it using information and communication technology to fully optimize the efficiency of city operations, manage traffic and connect citizens? Is it harnessing the latest technologies and data to improve security and sustainability? Are quality of life and job creation among the primary factors being considered in its urban planning?\nAcross the country, the technology boom is extending its electronic reach into practically every aspect of our daily lives. New apps are constantly being released to correlate data in real time to tell us where traffic is backed up, or when the next bus is arriving. New systems help manage urban flow, detect predictive patterns and enable swifter, more effective responses to natural and man-made disasters.\nWho exactly is behind all this evolving technology? Who is developing it, managing it and implementing it in ways that improve our daily lives? That is a question that Dr. Jerome Hajjar, a professor and department chair from the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Northeastern University, has long been considering.\nNortheastern is making it a priority to prepare students for a new wave of careers. And it\u2019s not just engineering -- it\u2019s architecture, public policy and many other fields. That\u2019s where the idea of smart cities comes in.\n... with universities like Northeastern leading the way, creating new paths of opportunity and helping entirely new professions evolve, the students of tomorrow will be prepared to ride this new wave of technology into the future.\n\u201cWe\u2019ve been evolving our curriculum in a variety of ways,\u201d says Dr. Hajjar. The university has started two new master\u2019s degrees programs with the college of social science and humanities and the school of public policy and urban affairs. One is on infrastructure resilience and another is on energy and environment. Northeastern has also been adding numerous new courses on both the graduate and undergraduate level on climate change, climate adaptation, infrastructure resilience and a variety of other topics.\nBecause the Boston region has been using a lot of new technologies to improve its own infrastructure, the students at Northeastern are participating in experimental research to gain real-world experience they can apply to their classroom education. By seeing the kinds of problems that exist in areas like transportation, mobility and disaster response, they better understand the innovations and solutions that need to be created.\nThese are exciting times in civil and environmental engineering, according to Dr. Hajjar. \u201cThere is so much that can be done, and needs to be done on those areas,\u201d he says. \u201cI\u2019ve been talking to a number of people around the country about helping a whole profession to evolve.\u201d\nIn addition to department faculty researching transportation planning related to autonomous vehicles, the professor and his students have also been studying the impact of hurricanes and storm surges on urban coastal regions.\n\u201cWe\u2019ve also been developing algorithms for using unmanned aerial vehicles to autonomously circumvent structures and automatically detect and document damage,\u201d Hajjar says. \u201cAnd this can help with structures that are difficult to inspect, this can address ageing infrastructure, and this can address damage that might occur after a significant event like an earthquake or a hurricane.\u201d\nThough Europe and parts of Asia may be ahead of North America in respect to smart cities with smart technologies, our universities and experimental research can help close the gap. Just last year, Northeastern started a Global Resilience Institute, led by a political scientist named Steve Flynn.

Employee proficiency data is then turned into precision coaching actions for managers to deliver customized development plans.\nIf employers wish to retain and develop top talent to meet their goals, a new approach to the employee learning experience is critical. Through microlearning solutions like Qstream, learning leaders are able to provide employees with the tools to successfully create behaviour change, making a better workforce for the future.\nThe Future of Corporate Wellness Lies in Charity\nIf an employer is looking to increase engagement among employees, a general truth will serve as a roadmap to success: It is better to give than it is to receive.",

Ryan Gregory, on December 16th, 2016\nIn humans, males tend on average to be larger, to mature later, and to age and die sooner than females. It\u2019s easy to assume, as many people do, that this difference between males and females \u2014 what biologists call sexual dimorphism \u2014 is the result of sexual selection. That is, males are larger because they fight each other over access to females and/or females prefer to mate with larger males. That is a valid hypothesis, of course \u2014 but too often it is simply accepted as fact and then used as a starting point for discussing other male and female traits. As a recent example, consider the debate that is happening on the blogosphere about sexual dimorphism in humans, and whether objections to the standard explanation of fightin\u2019 males is merely political.\nIt started with PZ Myers\u2019s post \u201cKeep your biological reductionism off us men, too\u201c, to which Jerry Coyne responded with \u201cThe ideological opposition to biological truth\u201c. In response to Coyne, Holly Dunsworth provided a critique via blog and Twitter, the latter of which is summarized here. UPDATE: Coyne responds here and here.\nI will avoid the political aspect of this discussion and focus on the science involved in the debate, because I think it highlights an important issue: namely, the need for evolutionary biologists to consider and test alternative hypotheses, even if they are not as intuitively plausible as the main hypothesis. This is one of the reasons that evolutionary biologists often take issue with claims from evolutionary psychology \u2014 because evo psych often tends to present a plausible hypothesis but does little to critically evaluate its underlying assumptions and even less to present and rule out alternatives. In particular, evolutionary biologists should know better than to restrict the list of hypotheses ones based on selection, because there are usually viable non-adaptive hypotheses as well. Natural selection is not the only mechanism of evolution.\nSo then, how should an evolutionary biologist approach the example of sexual dimorphism in humans? What alternative hypotheses could there be to the standard explanation? Well, here are some comments that I once wrote up for a student who made the typical \u201cmales are bigger/mature more slowly/die sooner because they fight over females\u201d assumption.\nThree male characters are listed: 1) larger size, 2) slower development, 3) faster senescence. One hypothesis, direct intrasexual selection (i.e., male-male combat), lumps them all together and explains all three with natural (sexual) selection acting on that trait. That is one possibility. It is also four testable hypotheses rolled into one (i.e., that the three traits evolved under selection related to mating success, plus that they are all part of the same adaptation).\nAlternative view #1 is that these are adaptations but they\u2019re decoupled and evolved separately. For example, maybe large size evolved due to sexual selection for male-male combat, but slower development evolved to provide time to learn about hunting. Alternative view #2 is that they evolved together but one or more is a byproduct of another. For example, slow development is simply necessary in order to reach larger size with larger muscle mass and is not in itself adaptive (i.e., if it were possible to become large quickly, this would evolve \u2013 indeed, there are good theoretical reasons to expect fast time to first reproduction to be strongly favoured, all else being equal). Alternative #3 is that they are decoupled and not all of them are adaptations. The point is that although these traits are all consistent with the hypothesis of male-male combat, it is not a given that they are coupled in their evolutionary history nor that all three are the product of selection.\nNext, we would need to consider as many plausible explanations as possible for each of the three traits.\n1) Larger size in males:\nAdaptive hypotheses type 1: Males selected to become larger\n\u2013 Male-male combat (direct intrasexual selection)\n\u2013 Mate guarding (indirect intrasexual selection) and/or dominating reproductively active females (inter-sexual conflict)\n\u2013 Female choice (intersexual selection), either direct (good genes if a male can manage to become large) or indirect (large males can provision offspring with food \u2013 maybe demonstrated by providing food and other items to females, which would certainly be consistent with modern human behaviour)\n\u2013 Males hunt large/strong/fast prey and females don\u2019t, so males need to be larger/stronger/faster (ecological selection)\n\u2013 Males but not females go to war frequently with other tribes over access to food and other resources (group selection or kin selection, as you like)\nAdaptive hypotheses type 2: Females selected to become smaller\n\u2013 Smaller body size means reduced requirements for food, more can be invested in offspring\n\u2013 Smaller body size can be achieved more quickly during development, allowing reproduction to get underway sooner\n\u2013 Smaller body size may have been preferred by males as a secondary sexual characteristic\nNon-adaptive hypotheses:\n\u2013 Smaller body size may be a byproduct of other changes in developmental timing in females\n2) Slower development in males:\nAdaptive hypotheses type 1: Males selected to develop slowly\n\u2013 Adaptive because it provides time to develop the size and skills needed to face competition with other males\n\u2013 Adaptive because it provides time to develop the size and skills needed to hunt large prey\n\u2013 Adaptive because it provides time to develop the size and skills needed to fight rival tribes\nAdaptive hypotheses type 2: Females selected to develop more quickly\n\u2013 Faster development is adaptive because it means earlier age at first reproduction (leading to higher potential lifetime reproductive output)\nNon-adaptive hypothesis:\n\u2013 Getting larger simply takes longer / being smaller takes less time (if growth rates are similar in males and females)\nOne might argue that the non-adaptive explanation is the simplest, so we would need evidence for why we should reject it and add a more complex explanation in its place Then you would need to test the primary adaptive hypothesis and the alternative adaptive explanations.\n3) Faster senescence in males:\nAdaptive hypotheses:\n\u2013 Adaptive, in the sense that male mortality due to combat is high so there is investment in early reproduction rather than anti-senescence, whereas the opposite occurs for females\n\u2013 Adaptive, in that males consume an inordinate amount of food such that earlier death of males favoured under inclusive fitness\n\u2013 Adaptive, in that males are selected to reproduce as much as possible while young regardless of whether most offspring survive whereas females are selected to invest in a few offspring over the long term and to see them through to adulthood (r- vs. K-selection)\n\u2013 Non-adaptive \u2013 males have higher metabolic rates than females, which means more oxidative damage\n\u2013 Non-adaptive \u2013 testosterone, which contributes to large size, aggression, and sperm production, has the long-term effect of hastening senescence but this is not selected against because it increases reproductive success earlier in life (antagonistic pleiotropy)\nAgain, I think the non-adaptive explanation is the simplest and indeed there is evidence that testosterone has this effect (castrated males live longer, for example). So again, there would need to be evidence against this as well as evidence for a particular adaptive explanation as well as evidence against alternative adaptive explanations.\nAdd onto all of this the question as to why sexual dimorphism is not more pronounced in humans than it is, especially if it is thought to have evolved after we became non-arboreal. Are there developmental or genetic limitations (constraints)? Or stabilizing selection acting on another trait?\nFinally, there may have been a reduction in overall sexual dimorphism during hominin evolution from Australopithecus to Homo. This would mean that stronger sexual selection (and/or other) pressures existed long before modern humans evolved. Fossil data are limited on this, but it\u2019s clearly a relevant issue.\nDNA: The Code for Making Life (BBC World Service \u2014 The Forum)\nby T.

Ryan Gregory, on December 2nd, 2015\nThere has been a lot of interest in tardigrades (aka \u201cwater bears\u201d) recently. Not just because they\u2019re very cool, but because they seem to have some very curious genomes. Maybe.\nSee, in a paper published in PNAS on November 23rd, Boothby et al. (2015) reported evidence of \u201cextensive horizontal gene transfer\u201d in the genome sequence of the tardigrade Hypsibius dujardini. As was widely reported in the science press, this included a lot of foreign DNA in the tardigrade genome, including from very distantly related taxa \u2014 plants, fungi, bacteria, you name it. (You may recall that there were initially some claims to this effect about the human genome as well, which did not stand up to subsequent scrutiny).\nBoothby et al. (2015) summarized their findings as follows:\nHorizontal gene transfer (HGT), or the transfer of genes between species, has been recognized recently as more pervasive than previously suspected. Here, we report evidence for an unprecedented degree of HGT into an animal genome, based on a draft genome of a tardigrade, Hypsibius dujardini. Tardigrades are microscopic eight-legged animals that are famous for their ability to survive extreme conditions. Genome sequencing, direct confirmation of physical linkage, and phylogenetic analysis revealed that a large fraction of the H. dujardini genome is derived from diverse bacteria as well as plants, fungi, and Archaea. We estimate that approximately one-sixth of tardigrade genes entered by HGT, nearly double the fraction found in the most extreme cases of HGT into animals known to date. Foreign genes have supplemented, expanded, and even replaced some metazoan gene families within the tardigrade genome. Our results demonstrate that an unexpectedly large fraction of an animal genome can be derived from foreign sources. We speculate that animals that can survive extremes may be particularly prone to acquiring foreign genes.\nBut just today, a preprint made available in BioRxiv by Koutsovoulos et al. (2015) presented a very different analysis of the H. dujardini genome:\nTardigrades are meiofaunal ecdysozoans and are key to understanding the origins of Arthropoda. We present the genome of the tardigrade Hypsibius dujardini, assembled from Illumina paired and mate-pair data. While the raw data indicated extensive contamination with bacteria, presumably from the gut or surface of the animals, careful cleaning generated a clean tardigrade dataset for assembly. We also generated an expressed sequence tag dataset, a Sanger genome survey dataset and used these and Illumina RNA-Seq data for assembly validation and gene prediction. The genome assembly is ~130 Mb in span, has an N50 length of over 50 kb, and an N90 length of 6 kb. We predict 23,031 protein-coding genes in the genome, which is available in a dedicated genome browser at http://www.tardigrades.org. We compare our assembly to a recently published one for the same species and do not find support for massive horizontal gene transfer. Additional analyses of the genome are ongoing.\nSo, which report is correct? Is the tardigrade genome packed with foreign DNA, or is this likely the result of contamination? I don\u2019t have an answer, but here\u2019s another little curiosity to add to the mix. My lab had previously provided a genome size estimate for this species using both flow cytometry and Feulgen image analysis densitometry, which came out to 1C = 75Mbp (Gabriel et al. 2007).\nHere\u2019s the output from the flow cytometry estimate:\nAnd here you can literally see that there is less DNA in the somatic nuclei of the tardigrade (HD) than in haemocyte nuclei from Drosophila melanogaster (DM) (1C = 175Mbp):\nThis estimate differed substantially from what the sequence was indicating, namely a genome more than 200Mbp in length. Given this discrepancy, we were asked to run some more samples of H. dujardini. We used both methods again (albeit with different equipment, as this was a number of years after the initial estimates were done), and got a similar though higher estimate of about 1C = 100Mbp.\nIn other words, the sequence seemed to contain twice as much DNA as what we were estimating to be in the nucleus using flow cytometry and image analysis densitometry. We figured that it\u2019s possible that this species undergoes chromatin diminution (deletion of a substantial quantity of DNA during somatic differentiation, such that there is more DNA in the germline than in somatic cells), although this hadn\u2019t previously been documented in tardigrades. Beyond that, it remained a mystery.\nIt is notable, though, that Koutsovoulos et al. (2015) also obtained an estimate of genome size using flow cytometry (with a different fluorochrome and different standards), and their value was very close to our revised estimate, at 1C = 110Mbp. Their sequence length was also much shorter than in the Boothby et al. (2015) paper, at about 135Mbp.\nBoothby et al. (2015) also noted that it is difficult to obtain uncontaminated material from these tiny organisms, and that DNA from their food (bacteria and algae) can end up in even carefully-prepared samples. It therefore seems possible that the large discrepancy between sequence and flow cytometric/densitometric genome size estimates reflects this issue.\nRegardless of whether their genomes turn out to be very weird or not, tardigrades are still cool.\nCategory: Genome sequencing, Genome size | One comment\nNew podcast on scientific writing coming soon!\nby T.

Ryan Gregory, on April 10th, 2015\nAs you all know, Francis Crick was a co-author of the Nobel Prize-winning work on the structure of the DNA molecule, which was first published in 1953. He also played a major role in the subsequent deciphering of the genetic code (with a key study published in 1961), among other important contributions made throughout his career. Notably, he co-authored one of the highly influential \u201cselfish DNA\u201d papers in 1980, which is so often cited as an example of non-genic DNA being dismissed as useless. As I have noted elsewhere, Crick did not dismiss non-coding DNA as useless junk in that paper, but that hasn\u2019t stopped people from (mis-)citing it as such.\nIn June 1959, two years before publishing the classic Crick, Brenner, et al. experiment (1961) and three years before he was awarded the Nobel Prize (1962), Crick took part in a symposium entitled \u201cStructure and Function of Genetic Elements\u201d at the Brookhaven National Laboratory. His contribution was entitled \u201cThe present position of the coding problem\u201d. One of the unexplained observations that he outlined at the time involved a disparity in the base composition (the relative abundance of A, C, G, and T) among species. As he wrote:\n\u201cThis large variation of DNA composition is very unexpected. The abundance of the various amino acids does not, as far as we know, vary much from organism to organism; leucine is always common, methionine usually rather rare. The small variation of RNA composition is exactly what might be expected; the large variation reported for DNA needs some special explanation\u201d.\nIn other words, although the amino acids and their relative abundances are quite similar across different species, the DNA in their genomes as a whole differs markedly in base composition. If the genetic code is universal \u2014 i.e., the same codons specify the same amino acids across species \u2014 then why would base composition be so divergent among taxa?\nCrick went on to list six possible explanations, though as he put it, \u201cin my view they all, at the moment, appear unattractive\u201d. The first one is particularly informative with regard to the myth that geneticists remained stubbornly closed-minded about the possibility of function in non-coding DNA until rather recently.\nHere is what Crick (1959) said about the possibility that \u201conly part of the DNA codes protein\u201d (emphasis added):\n\u201c[Under this possible explanation] it is postulated that the sequences of bases in a DNA molecule are of two types: one makes \u2018sense,\u2019 that is, codes an amino acid sequence; the other makes \u2018nonsense,\u2019 that is, has some other function. The difficulty of this idea is that the nonsense must make up a rather large fraction of the DNA. If, for example, it is assumed that the base composition of he sense is reflected in that of the total RNA of the organism, then organisms showing extreme base ratios must have a minimum of 35% nonsense in their DNA.\nIf nonsense exists it can be asked how, in one molecule of DNA, the sense and nonsense are interdispersed. Are they coarsely or finely dispersed? As an example of the former, consider what might happen if dud genes could not be eliminated by genetic deletion. The base composition of such genes might well drift to extreme values because of mutagenic bias within the cell. This explanation is not very likely, and in addition demands that dud genes be reasonable uniformly distributed among DNA molecules.\nA possible reason for the fine dispersion of nonsense might be the provision of \u2018commas\u2019. For example, these might take the form of segments that could pair by twisting back on themselves when the two chains of the DNA were separated. The base pairs of these regions could vary without altering their function. Alternatively a short sequence of bases, different from species to species but always the same in any one species, might act as a comma.\u201d\nPart of the Quotes of interest series.\nCategory: junk DNA | 2 comments\nMolecular Plant publishes very confusing paper about junk DNA.\nby T. Ryan Gregory, on March 10th, 2015\nUPDATE: The authors of this paper were rather upset by my initial description of it, so I will just say that I found it very confusing and leave it at that. See the abstract below and check out the paper if you are interested.\nFreeling, M.W., Xu, J., Woodhouse, M., and Lisch, D.R. (2015). A solution to the C-value paradox and the function of junk DNA: the Genome Balance Hypothesis. Molecular Plant, in press.\nThe Genome Balance Hypothesis originated from a recent study that provided a mechanism for the phenomenon of genome dominance in ancient polyploids: unique 24nt RNA coverage near genes is greater in genes on the recessive subgenome irrespective of differences in gene expression. 24nt RNAs target transposons. Transposon position effects are now hypothesized to balance the expression of networked genes and provide spring-like tension between pericentromeric heterochromatin and microtubules. The balance (coordination) of gene expression and centromere movement are under selection. Our hypothesis states that this balance can be maintained by many or few transposons about equally well. We explain known, balanced distributions of junk DNA within genomes, and between subgenomes in allopolyploids (and our hypothesis passes \u201cthe onion test\u201d for any so-called solution to the C-value paradox). Importantly, when the allotetraploid maize chromosomes delete redundant genes, their nearby transposons are also lost; this result is explained if transposons near genes function. The Genome Balance Hypothesis is hypothetical because the position effect mechanisms implicated are not proved to apply to all junk DNA, and the continuous nature of the centromeric and gene position effects have not yet been studied as a single phenomenon.\nThis recent genome paper has it all: \u201creveal\u201c, \u201cinsights\u201c, and the platypus fallacy.\nTags: Platypus fallacy | Category: Genome sequencing, Misconceptions, Phylogenetics | Leave a comment\nQuotes of interest \u2014 Brenner (1990) and discussion.\nSydney Brenner is a well-known figure in genetics, having made major contributions to our understanding of gene function and establishing Caenorhabditis elegans as the enormously popular model organism that it is today. He shared the 2002 Nobel Prize for \u201cdiscoveries concerning genetic regulation of organ development and programmed cell death'\u201d. He was also outspoken about various topics relating to genes and genomes, and had various things to say on the topic of junk DNA. For example, he was fond of distinguishing between \u201cjunk DNA\u201d and \u201cgarbage DNA\u201d \u2014 the former of which accumulates while the latter is thrown away.\nIn June of 1989, Brenner participated in a conference held in Bern, Switzerland entitled \u201cHuman Genetic Information: Science, Law and Ethics\u201d. His contribution, \u201cThe human genome: the nature of the enterprise\u201d was subsequently published along with transcripts of the discussion that followed in Brenner (1990). Here are some relevant excerpts, which highlight some of the discussions that were going on around the time of the early development of the Human Genome Project with regard to junk DNA and whether to sequence it (Brenner thought it should be ignored in favour of focusing on the genes). His discussion includes classic arguments about the limits of how much of the genome can have an essential, sequence-specific function, and thoughts on the possible functions of non-genic DNA.\n\u201cGrasping the magnitude of the technical tasks involved [in genome sequencing and analysis] requires some understanding of the sizes of genomes. First, the range of variation is about a millionfold, from around 4 kb (kilobases, 103) in small viruses to 4 Gb (gigabase, 109) in the human genome, and with bacterial genomes at the geometrical average of about 4 Mb (megabases, 106). The nematode has about 100 megabases and the Drosophila genome is twice that size. Evidence suggests that, up to the level of bacteria, genetic information is densely packed on the genome. This is because these unicellular organisms do not have a separate germline and the time it takes to replicate the genome could become rate limiting for cell multiplication. There is therefore a selective advantage for streamlined genomes which have eliminated all useless DNA. Streamlining is also found in some unicellular lower eukaryotes, such as yeast, which have genome sizes a few times larger than those of bacteria. We can make a reasonable estimate of the number of genes in these organisms by assuming that all the genes code for polypeptide sequences, and that the average size of a gene is, very roughly, one kilobase. Thus viruses would have of the order of ten to a few hundred genes, depending on their genome sizes, which bacteria might have as many as a few thousand genes. These estimates are well supported by what we know about these organisms, either from complete DNA sequences in the cases of some viruses, or from genetic and biochemical studies of bacteria such as Escherichia coli. If we applied this calculation to the genomes of higher organisms we would conclude that Drosophila has more than one hundred thousand genes and man, four million. Genetic considerations suggest that these estimates are far too large. For example, if all the supposed four million human genes performed indespensible functions, then, at an average forward mutation rate of 10-5 per gene, some 40 lethal mutations would have been accumulated in each preceding generation and therefore by now we should all be dead.\nThis argument about an upper limit on the sustainable number of truly essential regions of the genome with sequence-specific functions was made by others, including Susumu Ohno, in the 1970s. It\u2019s one of several classic arguments that modern opponents of the concept of junk DNA seem to be unaware of.\nA consideration of the mutational load suggests that one hundred thousand genes is a more likely upper estimate for the human genome and ten thousand for that of Drosophila. We also know that the genomes of higher organisms contain large amounts of DNA that carry no coding information, and indeed may carry no sequence information at all. Thus we have the surprising result that most of the human genome is junk; junk, and not garbage, because there is a difference that everybody knows: junk is kept, while garbage is thrown away. In higher organisms, with their separate germlines, there is little selective pressure for reducing the amount of DNA, and this is especially true for those with long developmental cycles. Processes leading to an increase of DNA, such as transpositions and certain errors of replication and recombination, are not deleterious and will go unchecked, while those that lead to a reduction in the amount of DNA will not be especially selected for. Such organisms accumulate and retain junk, while in the streamlined unicellular microbes, the junk has become garbage and has been eliminated.\u201d\nHere, Brenner is arguing that much of the genome is junk that has accumulated because it is not deleterious. Given that there are many well-known mechanisms that can add DNA to a genome (transposable elements, gene duplication and pseudogenization, replication slippage, illegitimate recombination, etc.), this is a sensible default position to take. Note, however, that Brenner does not dismiss the possibility that some of this DNA may become essential (see below) \u2014 neither did Ohno, or the authors of the selfish DNA papers in 1980. Note, also, that there was opposition to this notion each time it was suggested in the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s.\n\u201cIt is these considerations that lead me to question the conclusion that there can be no case now to aim to get the entire sequence of the human genome. If something like 98% of the genome is junk, then the best strategy would be to find the important 2%, and sequence it first. Some have argued that since we do not know what there is in all of the junk DNA, we cannot dismiss it, and the only way to find out is to sequence all of the genome. The counter to this is to look at on the sequencing of junk like income tax; it cannot be evaded but there are ways of avoiding it, and, anyway, it is one of the problems that we can and should leave for our successors. If cheap and easy methods of DNA sequencing were available, it would obviously pay to sequence everything and pick out the significant parts by computer. Ultimately it may be done this way, but the technology does not yet exist.\u201d\nBrenner argues that it would be better to focus on sequencing libraries constructed using cDNA, so that there could be a focus on elements in the genome that are very likely to have functions. This is largely based on technological considerations based on what was considered feasible in 1990 and not a dismissal of possible functional elements apart from protein-coding exons.\nAs with Ohno (1973), the discussion that took place after the presentation by Brenner are particularly interesting as an indicator of the state of thinking about junk DNA at the time:\nKimura: \u201cI was very impressed with the statement that 98% of the human genome is junk, rather than garbage. Our daily experience suggests that sometimes \u2018junk\u2019 is valuable. Is it possible that some of the so-called junk genes might be found to be valuable\u2026? If the junk gene could become valuable genes, we would have to change our criteria for what is junk.\u201d\nBrenner: \u201cUnfortunately the organism cannot plan that. But, in one sense, organisms are very much like us! You get a wooden box and decide to keep it to make a bookcase, but you never do because it\u2019s much cheaper to buy a bookcase, and so the wooden box remains as junk. Organisms cannot plan; there is nothing in the genome that can say that a piece of junk might come in handy in some future era, so let\u2019s hold on to it!\u201d\nSome weird distinctions between \u201corganisms\u201d and \u201cus\u201d aside, this highlights a nonsensical but all-too-common idea regarding junk DNA: that it is there because it may someday become useful. This has been addressed many times over the decades, but it persists. Even Francis Collins, former head of the Human Genome Project and now director of the NIH, has invoked it.\n\u201cDavis: Is it possible that some, or much, of the junk does not have quite as definable function as, say, making an enzyme, but has regulatory roles that will turn out to be more than junk?\u201d\nBrenner: \u201cI would be a fool if I denied that; it is possible, but that is another question I am going to leave for our successors. I am certainly not going to try to prove or disprove it for every piece of junk, and I shall avoid it.\u201d\nBut perhaps the most telling quote about whether non-genic DNA had been dismissed as useless junk in the late 1980s is the concluding remark made by Gustav Nossal:\nNossal: \u201cYou are of course not alluding to certain shortish stretches of DNA that are becoming of very great interest, and clearly do have regulatory promoting or silencing functions, and are now a major object of study. What percentage, on top of the 2%, they represent, we don\u2019t know yet, but it is not a negligible proportion.\u201d\nTags: junk DNA, Quotes of interest | Category: junk DNA | One comment\nGenome Sequence Paper Title Generator\nSo, you and several dozen totally essential collaborators have been hard at work sequencing the genome of a super important species, and you\u2019re ready to write up your results.

        "raw_content": "Below are my reviews for the BAD VALENTINE series. These are lighthearted Valentine\u2019s Day shorts by four different authors, each story written with the same opening line: \u201cNothing good ever came of a Valentine.\u201d All the books are totally standalone romantic comedies, and you can read them in any order.\nLove Magic by Jesi Lea Ryan\n\u201cThe day I met Derrick while playing my violin in the park was magical. Unfortunately, magic and love together don\u2019t always mix.\u201d\nOliver met Derrick while busking in the park, and they hit it off from the start. At first, Derrick\u2019s \u201cmysterious magician\u201d vibe was intriguing, but after two botched dates, Oliver was ready to call it quits.\nMagic flies in this sweet romance\nThis story was intriguing from the start. I wasn\u2019t sure where it was going, or even if we had a ghost love story, but soon everything became clear and I was swept into the magic of Jesi Lea Ryan\u2019s world. It was subtle but I was glad to catch onto it before Oliver did. Told from his point of view, I would probably have been in the same boat as him wondering what was going on, especially when Derrick was such a hottie!\nThe story takes you on the wows of dating, and magic aside, this was a sweet tale of two guys who come together, recognising something in one another that allows them to open up and start something together.\nQuill Me Now by Jordan Castillo Price\nWhat if the words you wrote came true?\nSpellcraft isn\u2019t exactly a respectable business, but it does pay the bills. At least, it should. Unfortunately, Dixon Penn failed his Spellcraft initiation. Instead of working in his family\u2019s shop, he\u2019s stuck delivering takeout orders in his uncle\u2019s beat-up Buick.\nSpellcrafting romance\nThe world that Jordan has created is amazing. I was very happy to see that there will be more from this world, and it\u2019s characters in the future as I want to see where this will go and what will happen next. Getting ahead of myself though, and returning to this story, it was one I couldn\u2019t put down. I fell for Dixon Penn and his cousin, Sabina, from the start. Stuck with what they had, but with a make do attitude, they made the most of everything.\nThe romance in this one was a slow burner for me. It played second to the story, and we didn\u2019t meet the love interest until sometime later in the story, but that was okay. I was more than happy to be swept up in this world, and then the romance when it happened. This was another story which made me smile and get lost in their world.\nHidden Hearts by Clare London\nAccident-prone Ethan has a dating history that reads like a disaster movie script. Strong and silent Kel can\u2019t seem to master the necessary small-talk on a proper date. When they both get signed up anonymously for a Valentines\u2019s night event\u2014\u201dfor those with an adventurous spirit but an open diary\u201d\u2014they never imagined they\u2019d be matched. They never imagined the romantic sparks would fly. To be honest, they never imagined they\u2019d survive the week.\nA comical romantic tale I couldn\u2019t stop reading.\nThis story had me grinning ear to ear from the beginning, right until the end; and yes I did want more. However, for a short story it really did pack a lot more in than you would have thought. I was worried that the \u201caccidents\u201d would be manufactured in a way to make it work, but they were added in so subtly that I didn\u2019t see them coming. Ethan was a delight in that he had given up on love, and based on his history I could see why. Kel was adorable too, and despite the exterior you could tell what a softy he really was underneath.\nThis story, for me, about going for what you don\u2019t know or expect. These guys both had a history of going for what they think they should do, as opposed to what they really wanted. When they let go of themselves and went for it, something special happened. This was a very heart warming, page turning story with enough spice and sizzle, if you know what I mean!\nTemporary Dad by Dev Bentham\nNick Compton owns a small but mighty fashion magazine. He already has enough on his plate, between work and, well, work. There\u2019s no room for a kid in his life but when his sister drops her seven-year-old daughter for an extended stay, he has to figure it out. Just before his niece arrives, Nick meets a blazing hot firefighter. They get on like a house a fire and the sex\u2014scorching. Too bad the he disappeared in the morning. Like smoke. Now Nick\u2019s stuck with a kid he doesn\u2019t know how to manage and without the man he\u2019d love to get his hands on again.\nDylan Gil wishes like hell he hadn\u2019t taken his roommates advice and lied about who he was. He\u2019s finally met someone he really likes and can\u2019t stop thinking about. But now he\u2019s too embarrassed to confess that he\u2019s just a second-grade teacher, not a manly firefighter. Good thing that work gets distracting, particularly when one of his brightest students goes to stay with her uncle and all hell breaks loose. Some people shouldn\u2019t be allowed to have kids.\nSweet romance where fate plays a hand at bringing the guys together.\nThis was a warm and fuzzy romance for me, which had me rooting for the guys to finally get it on. I didn\u2019t take to Nick much, although much was said to make him more likeable, I couldn\u2019t believe he was in the same town/city as his sister and had only met his seven year old niece a couple of times. It may be a personal thing, but I wasn\u2019t sure how that could be. However, it did play well into the story when he\u2019s suddenly the guardian for his niece and looks after him. Going for one last night out before he becomes a temporary dad, he meets Dylan and the sparks do fly. This was very quick and more like a hook up as opposed to something more, but the chemistry was there, and days later both guys were still thinking about the other.\nI liked how the romance in this one was there slowly brought out as opposed to both guys being in each other\u2019s pockets straight away. We don\u2019t have much time on page for them both, but when we do there is something real there. At the end, I was bowled over by what had happened and was happy to see them together.",

        "raw_content": "A-G ordered to respond to Dery\u2019s suit\nThe Supreme Court has given a seven-day ultimatum to the Attorney General to file its statement of case in response to a suit filed a by Justice Paul Dery.\nJustice Dery is asking the court to declare as null and void, a petition from the President to have him investigated over some allegations of corruption.\nThe ultimatum given yesterday, follows a plea by the State Attorney, Grace Aiwoo, for ample time to be given to the Attorney-General (AG) to file its statement of case in response to the suit before the court.\nShe explained that the inability of the A-G to respond to the suit was due to some challenges at the Registry of the court.\nJustice Dery is also invoking the original jurisdiction of the court to prohibit a judge of the high court from sitting on a case involving him.\nGiving the order, Justice Julius Ansah, who chaired the panel, indicated that it had been the trend of the AG to always pray for adjournment in matters which should have been dealt with expeditiously.\nHe therefore, ordered them to file the statement of case within seven days and consequently adjourned sitting sine dine (indefinitely) pending the filing of the response.\nJustice Derry is facing an impeachment process established by the Chief Justice following an expose\u2019 in the judiciary by ace investigative journalist, Anas Aremeyaw Anas.\nJustice Dery, one of 12 High Court Judges seen in Anas\u2019 undercover video, allegedly taking bribe, took his case to the Supreme Court, seeking a declaration that the petition filed by Anas Aremeyaw Anas for his removal was null and void.\nAccording to the facts of the case filed before the court, the publication of Tiger Eye\u2019s petition to the President in the media, as well as the public screening at the Accra International Conference Centre (AICC) of the evidence (video), and the Judicial Council\u2019s naming of the Judges involved in the \u201cBribery Scandal\u201d in a press release on September 11, 2015, contravened Article 146 (8) of the 1992 Constitution and therefore unconstitutional.\nIt further stated that article 146 (8) which deals with the removal of a Justice states that, \u201cAll proceedings under this article shall be held in camera, and the Justice or Chairman against whom the petition is made is entitled to be heard in his defence by himself or by a lawyer or other expert of his choice.\u201d It said.\nJustice Dery, therefore, wants the court to declare that all proceedings initiated by the Chief Justice arising out of the contents of the petition were null and void.\nHe is seeking 10 reliefs from the Supreme Court including a perpetual injunction against any adjudicating body from determining any issues arising out of the contents of the petition.\nAccording to him, the Supreme Court should restrain the defendants, their agents, assigns, servants, from any further publishing, printing, reporting, broadcasting, advertising, publicising, distributing and disseminating the contents of the petition.",

The claim is that you will be able to pop your cell phone down on a mat and pick it up again later on and your phone will be charged. However this isn't truly wireless or without it's faults. You will need to connect that mat itself to a mains socket or USB port on your computer, you will need to buy an adapter for each of your devices and phones and you'll need to spend a whole load of cash. All to save you a mere 5 seconds each time you charge a device. You see, the simple alternative is to plug the charger in and hey presto!\nPlus, this doesn't come cheap the mat itself retails at \u00a370 with the price of around \u00a335 adapter for each device. Very few devices are supported: only the iphone, ipod touch, nintendo ds lite and dsi and blackberrys and currently supported and just to start charging one device \"wirelessly\" will cost you over \u00a3100.\nUndoubtedly the future will be all without wires and all this will be built into our devices, we wont have to place our devices on a mat and all phones will have this built in, just walking into a room will do the trick. Perhaps, we won't even have batteries that only last a few days, but rather last a lifetime - eliminating the problem all together. All we can say now is that is you want a cool gizmo to show your mates the Powermat is it but with a price tag of over \u00a3100 to start one phone this won't be a cheap piece of kit.",

        "raw_content": "cast member, interview, Walt disney world\nCast Member Spotlight - Courtney Sharp (Front Desk)\nName: Courtney Sharp\nHire Status: CP\nRole: Hospitality - Front Desk\nWork Location: Animal Kingdom Lodge, Saratoga Springs & Old Key West\nAfter Traditions, I first had to take a class that prepared us in knowledge of what the Walt Disney World Resort as a whole has to offer, followed by a week-long training class where we learned the computer programs we would be using, cash handing skills, as well as guest service experience. From there, I got my first look at the resort I would be working at, my \u201chome\u201d location, DAKL (Disney\u2019s Animal Kingdom Lodge) in a welcome class. I then began a week of OJT (On the Job Training), where I learned all the necessary tools of Front Desk as well as the layout of the hotel, with the last day being where they basically stand over your shoulder to make sure you are okay to be out of the nest and on your own. We had refresher training throughout my program such as: Four Keys Basics, and a Food/Beverage knowledge assessment (just got to eat food from DAKL locations.) After being trained as a Front Desk Cashier, I then got to be trained a\ns a Runner, which is a completely different also long story. Basically, I had lots and lots of training.\nOnce I was trained Runner, it was basically all I ever worked. No day was EVER the same, which I loved. I would do things from help with key assists when guests get locked out, deliver boxes and amenities to rooms, set up the flower arrangements in the Presidential Suite, get sent to the grocery store, run into Magic Kingdom to get a wand for a little princess, pick up luggage from the airport, anything you could think of to help the resort run more smoothly and efficiently.\nNever knowing what was next. I remember driving all the way to Port Canaveral one day to get a suitcase a guest left, and then the next day I was setting up roses for a honeymoon couple. I loved the randomness of being a Front Desk Runner. It made everyday interesting.\nThe hours, you will hear this from every CP there ever will be, but it is entirely true. I love the hospitality industry, but coming in I forgot that Hotels are in fact, a 24 hour operation. Which meant late nights, and back for even earlier mornings, back to back, 5-6 days a week.\nThere are so many magical moments that happen every day in the resort. I feel like I could never decide on just one. There was this one time though where a little girl made a magical moment for me. I went to crown her princess of the day in our lobby, and she said she was too little to be a princess, I told her that isn\u2019t true and anyone can be a princess if they want to be, she then set the crown on my head and said no, you are the princess. I cried.\nThere was a family that was staying with us, it was a vacation re-do because their last trip was cancelled when their son was diagnosed with brain cancer. They decided they needed to do one last family trip together to celebrate his life and have his dream of going to Disney World be fulfilled. We put together a really grand entrance for the family with the drums out front and some little gifts and plush for him. When he got out of the car with the support from his parents and walker, he began quickly running over with excitement, crying because he was so happy. The light in the little boy\u2019s eyes, just pure excitement to be there was the most magical and tear filled experience I ever had.\nJust being with friends, enjoying last days together and cherishing every moment you have left in the program. Standing and watching Wishes for the last time, saying goodbyes that I knew would later turn into reunions, staying up far too late to talk about nothing or dance in a living room, attempting to watch every show WDW has to offer in one night, and looking back one last time at the place I have called home for eight months.\nI have learned more about myself than I have ever before. I learned to conquer my fears, step out of my comfort zone, and how to show people who I really am. You learn that sleep really is an option sometimes. I found out not only who I am, but what I want to do with my life, places I want to see, and experiences I want to bring to my life. I have never been more self educated until this program.\nIt was difficult being away from family in hard times.\nMeeting people from all over the world, gaining knowledge of yourself and who you are, and exploring things outside what you normally would. The experiences I had while on my program with the friends I made\u2026made it the best semester of my life, and now I can\u2019t call anywhere but Walt Disney World and the beautiful state of Florida, home.\nThere was a woman with a celebration button on in the hallway and I asked her what she was celebrating, she replied with, \u201cThe divorce of my husband.\u201d She said it so cavalier with a smile slightly on her face, I couldn\u2019t help but laugh when I told her congratulations and to have a magical day.\nHow humid Florida was (you get use to it), to not bring so many pairs of shoes, and how to correctly make jell-o shots.\nIn a heartbeat, in fact that is what I am doing now, only in Disneyland. It\u2019s been a magical experience here too, but nothing beats my WDW College Program.",

Officers believe that all four of the animals died as\nthe result of illegal human activity.\nIn the most recent cases, two female wolves were found dead in\nIron County. One was located on Sept. 22, about seven miles north of\nUS-2, on the east side of Forest Highway 16. The other was located on\nOct. 2 near the Deerfoot Lodge Road, near the Fence River in\nnortheastern Iron County. Both animals had died from gunshot wounds.\nTwo wolf death cases remain under investigation in the eastern\nUpper Peninsula. On Sept. 17, a wolf was found dead from a gunshot near\nKrause Road, north of Engadine, in Mackinac County. Earlier, the radio\ncollar of another wolf was located in the Munuscong River, near\nPickford. While the collar clearly was cut from the animal with a knife\nor other sharp instrument, the animal's remains have not been located to\ndetermine the exact cause of death.\n\"It is certain that someone witnessed suspicious activity or has\nheard talk of what may have happened to these animals,\" said Lt. Thomas\nCourchaine, District Law Supervisor.\nThe DNR is seeking information about these open cases. Those\nwishing to provide information are asked to contact the\nReport-All-Poaching Hotline, 1-800-292-7800 or their local DNR\nconservation officer. Tips can be provided anonymously.\nThe Grey Wolf is listed as an endangered species by the federal\ngovernment. The taking of a wolf is a misdemeanor, punishable by a\nmaximum of 90 days in jail and fines up to $1,000, as well as\nrestitution of $1,500 to the state for the loss of the animal. Federal\npenalties could also be imposed.",

A review and a point of view.\nThe alcoholic liver disease (ALD) is the leading cause of death from liver failure in Italy and worldwide. Ethanol abstention, a healthy diet, and a significant improvement of life-style are the mainstay of treatment for this disease.\nCurrently, we do not have effective therapeutic options are at our disposal to restore and maintain an improved clinical status. Silymarin is a complementary and alternative medicine often prescribed and self-prescribed; it has anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-fibrotic, and metabolic properties. It improves the laboratoristic values and the ultrasonographic grading of liver disease in case of steatosis/steatohepatitis. S-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAMe) is the principal biological methyl donor, and it is also a precursor of glutathione (GSH), essential for the anti-oxidant pathways.\nSAMe is particularly important for opposing the toxicity of free radicals generated by various toxins, including alcohol. An association between Silymarin and SAMe (labelled as a dietary supplement) has been recently brought to market, and seems to be promising. It could be beneficial in such cases of alcoholic hepathopathies. New therapeutic options are needed by hepatologists to successfully overcome a constantly growing disease.\nReferencia: NCBI",

        "title": "A Fabulous Example of Roman Talent: The Santa Maria in Cosmedin Fountain",
        "raw_content": "Archaeologists and restorers alike have stumbled upon a treasure trove of heathen and Christian relics on the site of Santa Maria in Cosmedin in Rome. The Bocca della Verit\u00e0 (Mouth of Truth} is a famed marble sculpture located at the entrance of the nearby basilica. Since the Santa Maria in Cosmedin fountain (1719) was located off the beaten track, it remained relatively obscure. For the most part, visitors stayed away from the area because it was a bleak and neglected part of the city. It was then that the Italian architect Carlo Bizzaccheri was commissioned by Pope Clement XI to erect a water fountain in the square outside the church of Santa Maria in Cosmedin in an effort to make the area more popular. August 11, 1717 marked the date when construction on the church\u2019s infrastructure began. The first stone to be placed in the foundation was blessed and medals bearing the illustrations of the Blessed Virgin, for whom the church is named, and St. John the Baptist, the patron saint of water, were also thrown in.\nThere are many renowned fountains in Rome\u2019s city center. Nearly all of them were planned, conceived and built by one of the greatest sculptors and designers of the 17th century, Gian Lorenzo Bernini. Also a city builder, he had skills as a fountain designer, and remnants of his life's work are evident throughout the streets of Rome. Bernini's father, a renowned Florentine sculptor, mentored his young son, and they ultimately moved to Rome, in order to fully express their art, primarily in the form of public water fountains and water features. The young Bernini earned encouragement from Popes and influential artists alike, and was an exceptional employee. At first he was renowned for his sculpting skills.\nMost notably in the Vatican, he utilized a base of experience in classic Greek architecture and melded it effortlessly with Roman marble. Though he was influenced by many, Michelangelo had the most serious impact on him, both personally and professionally.\nAdd the Vitality of Feng Shui into Your Backyard\nSize is not the main consideration when incorporating feng shui design to your garden. A sizeable area is great for those lucky enough to have it, but a smaller area can still be useful in feng shui design.\nThe main feng shui tools can be utilized for your interior decor as well as your garden design. As the energy map, or bagua, of your garden is an extension of your home's bagua, you will need to begin by knowing the bagua of the house.\nBefore getting going, make sure you grasp the five elements of feng shui so that you can optimize their energy.\nThe Earth element, for example, should be located in the northeast part of your garden which connects to the personal growth and self-cultivation energy in feng shui design. A perfect addition to the northeast corner of your yard might be a serene Zen garden decorated with natural stone, as they represent the Earth element in feng shui.\nThink about introducing a water feature into these feng shui areas: East (health & family), North (career & path in life), or Southeast (money and abundance).\nSpreading useful hydraulic facts and water fountain design ideas all through Europe was accomplished with the published papers and illustrated books of the time. A globally recognized leader in hydraulics in the later part of the 1500's was a French fountain designer, whose name has been lost to history. By designing gardens and grottoes with incorporated and clever water features, he began his profession in Italy by earning imperial mandates in Brussels, London and Germany. In France, near the end of his lifetime, he wrote \u201cThe Principle of Moving Forces\u201d, a book that became the primary text on hydraulic mechanics and engineering. Explaining modern hydraulic systems, the publication furthermore updated key hydraulic developments of classical antiquity. As a mechanized means to push water, Archimedes invented the water screw, fundamental among vital hydraulic discoveries. An decorative spring with the sun warming the liquid in two containers hidden in a adjacent accommodation was presented in one illustration. The end result: the fountain is activated by the hot liquid expanding and rising up the piping. Pumps, water wheels, water features and garden pond concepts are documented in the book.\nHow Many Variations of Backyard Fountains Can I Choose From?\nA garden can be a little sanctuary, providing you a peaceful place to stop and enjoy some outdoor time. While it is not a simple task to build one, you will be happy you did once you are able to relax and enjoy it. Both the \u201ccurb appeal\u201d and the value of your real estate will be driven up when you put in an eye-catching garden. A water feature is not the only way to improve your landscape; consider adding trees and bushes, paving your driveway, or even putting in some special statues.\nA significant improvement to your garden can be accomplished by installing a water fountain. A place of tranquility and serenity will appear from what was at first just a simple spot. The trickling water of your fountain will not only give you a calming oasis, it will also attract wild birds and other friendly local critters. Your fountain will immediately turn into the focal point of your garden or yard.\nThere are numerous celebrated water features in the city center of Rome.

        "raw_content": "ACT Writing Format & Basic Info\nWhat is the ACT Writing Test? Why is it optional?\nThe optional ACT Writing Test, which is always administered at the end of the test, is 30 minutes long. All essays must be in response to a given prompt. The prompts are about a social issue applicable to high school students. You are asked to respond to a question about your position on the issue described in the writing prompt. In doing so, you may adopt one or the other of the perspectives described in the prompt, or you may present a different point of view on the issue. Your score will not be affected by the point of view you take on the issue.\nThe Writing Test is fairly new to the ACT. It was added to the test in 2005, and it was decided that the test would be optional in order to be accommodating to the differing needs of both individual students and individual institutions.\nShould I take the ACT Writing Test?\nEach institution and program of study differs in their requirement for the ACT Writing Test. Be sure to check and see if the program or school you are interested in requires or prefers their students to take the ACT Writing Test.\nAlthough each person is different, many people suggest that students should take the ACT writing test. It is quite comparable to writing assessments required by most school districts, and there is evidence that taking this test and doing well will increase your chance at getting into the college or university of your choice, even if they do not require it of all of their students. There is also the chance that the requirements of your chosen school will change in the future to require the Writing exam.\nWhat is the format of the Writing test?\nYou will be given a writing prompt which addresses a social issue. An effort will be made to make this prompt something that is relevant to you as a high school student. You will respond to the prompt in an expository essay in which you take a position on the question while still addressing alternative points of view. The test is scored based on how you present your position, not on the position itself.\nThe test is hand-written with a No. 2 pencil (the same type required for the rest of the test).

        "title": "Companion planting: how to do it, mistakes to avoid \u2014 Green Living",
        "raw_content": "I learned the value of companion planting the hard way a couple of years ago when I planted zucchini for the first time. My Chinese medicine doctor, who has her own small but thriving backyard garden, gave me a couple of zucchini (courgette) plants, which transplanted into containers that had been well-prepped with nutrient-rich soil and fertilizer. That year my plants only produced a single zucchini! Later, I found out that you sometimes have to hand-pollinate some vegetables, taking the pollen from the \u201cmale\u201d stems and brushing it onto the correct part of the \u201cfemale\u201d stems in order to make the fruit or vegetable grow. Normally, pollinators like bees, butterflies, moths, ladybugs and wasps do the job for you, but that year hardly any bees showed up (only wasps, which are not as effective as bees). I realized too late in the season that I should have planted flowers to attract different kinds of pollinators. Nowadays, I always plant marigolds alongside my crops (and sometimes bee balm and lavender as well) and have seen an increase in the numbers of friendly garden helpers coming to visit and pollinate my plants.\nWhat to plant? Suggestions for the beginning and experienced gardener\nIf you are fairly new to gardening, I suggest beginning with plants like tomatos, green beans, eggplant, kale, carrots, potatos, or Swiss Chard, which are fairly easy to grow and will keep producing into the fall. However, if you live in a cold climate, tomatos will not grow past the hot season, as they need a lot of sunlight and heat to produce fruit. If you are beginning your garden this time of year (late summer/early fall) and will have mild weather within a month or so, you can plant broccoli, carrots, kale, cabbage, and cool-weather greens like lettuce, spinach, and bok choy. However, even in warmer weather you can plant some cool-weather greens using a companion planting technique: plant taller crops with ample foliage that will provide shade to those cool-weather greens.\nOf course, the best way to determine what to plant is to look up the planting zone you are in, and then determine what works best in that zone for the time of year you are planting. For a cheat sheet that covers all 10 planting zones of the US and tells you what to plant when, click the button below and sign up for access to our free resource library. You can also see some of the other resources available in the library by visiting our Free Resources page.\nHow do companion plants benefit their neighbors?\nAs mentioned above, there is a lot of debate between popular consensus and agricultural scientists about the benefits of companion planting. Some of these reported benefits include promoting pollination, enhancing the flavor of crops, adding nutrients to the soil, and controlling weeds. However, some studies have cast doubt on some of these benefits, such as whether companion planting has the ability to reduce the number of arthropod insects (e.g. mites, aphids, and whiteflies) invading your crops. On the other hand, there is ample scientific evidence to show that the success of planting chives or coriander to repel aphids may have something to do with the fact that these companions provide a visual obstruction preventing the insect from finding the plants you are trying to protect. Alternatively, companions may produce repellent chemicals, or mask the odor of the plant you want to protect.\nWhat this means is that companion planting may help with pest control, but there is confusion over exactly how it does so, or how to ensure that it does help.\nIn my opinion, any method that can enable you to reduce or eliminate your use of pesticides is a positive development! If you have any doubts about the harmful effects of pesticides on human and environmental health, look no further than the red tide that is currently wreaking havoc along the Gulf Coast of Florida in the United States. Those red algae blooms thrive off pesticides and chemicals that wash into the ocean. They have caused hundreds of marine animals to wash up dead on the beach and brought on gastrointestinal problems in people who have been exposed to it by swimming in the Gulf water or consuming seafood from it.\n(My kids and I are headed to the Gulf Coast of Florida in a couple of days, and I\u2019ll be taking the opportunity to interview local residents and marine biologists in hopes of bringing you more information about some of the connections between harmful synthetic chemicals and the spread of red tide. Sign up for my RSS feed using the link at the top of this post to be notified of updates to the blog.)\nAre there disadvantages to companion planting?\nThere is good reason to suspect that companion planting may not always produce the desired effects. In fact, there are at least a few disadvantages to companion planting that you may not have heard of.\nFirst, you need to plant the right companions with each other. Planting the wrong ones can have a negative effect on the health of your crops. For example, planting tall plants like bush beans or pole beans and tomatoes together is a bad idea because they will compete for light, with the tomatoes being more likely to win that competition. Finally, some plants are popularly believed to be allelopathic, which means that they chemically hinder the chemical vital systems of competing plants. For example, garlic and onions are said to hinder the growth of beans and peas. Sunflowers supposedly interfere with the growth of potatos and beans. Cabbage and cauliflower usually do not thrive when planted alongside each other. While the scientific evidence on this kind of \u201ccombatant\u201d behavior among plants is thin, popular lore says keep these plants away from each other.\nSecond, competition for water and nutrients can reduce the strength of your plants. Plants that love water, like sweet corn and lettuce, should not be planted near drought-loving plants like rosemary and snap peas. Cabbage will stunt the growth of tomatoes, since these two compete for nutrients in the soil. Bell peppers and fennel will also fail to thrive for the same reasons when planted together.\nThird, randomly sticking plants in the soil together, even those recommended as companions, is usually not a good idea, and may even reduce your harvest. For example, tomatoes may crowd out basil planted alongside it, with the result that the basil harvest is considerably less than if it had been planted on its own. So what can you do to ensure that this doesn\u2019t happen?\n3 factors to consider for successful companion planting\nThere are 3 things you need to be aware of for successful companion planting, because it\u2019s not just a matter of sticking plants in the soil next to each other. Crop density, ratio, and interplanting times all affect whether you\u2019ll get an abundant and healthy harvest compared to what you\u2019ll get from monocropping (growing a single crop in a given container or plot).\nCrop density refers to the amount of space a plant, or plants occupy. The more space a plant takes up, the more likely it is to crowd out, or compete with, other nearby plants, even those that would otherwise make good companions. Ratio refers to the number of plants \u201cA\u201d planted alongside plants \u201cB.\u201d Interplanting refers to pairing taller plants with shorter ones that grow under them.\nConsider tomato and basil, which under the right conditions, grow very well together. I have had some successes and failures with planting these companions in the same pot, and what I have noticed over the years is that it is often better to transplant a tall basil plant into a container with a smaller tomato plant, or alternatively, plant a tomato seedling into a pot that has already been growing basil for at least 6 weeks. Waiting until the basil plant is 6 weeks old (or approximately 6 inches tall) before transplanting into a pot containing a small tomato plant, for example, will usually ensure that both the basil and the tomato thrive.\nLast summer my fast-growing basils, planted 2-3 in the outer edges of a pot containing a cherry tomato plant, grew tall enough to avoid being crowded out by the fast-growing tomato. By pinching the leaves from the bottom of the basil, beginning at 6 inches tall, and selectively pinching leaves at the top once they had grown at least 9 inches, I was able to get them to be tall enough to thrive next to the larger tomato plant, and bushy enough to produce a high-yielding harvest that lasted well into the fall season. In this case, I was able to create enough density to fill a large 16\u201d pot with plants, using ratios of 2:1 and 3:1, and interplanting in such a way that although the tomato eventually grew taller than the basil plants, it avoided crowding them out. I should also note that I rotated the pot at least once during the course of a day (though not every day) to ensure that all the plants in the pot were receiving ample sunlight.\nSome of these techniques will be taught in detail in our upcoming online course, \u201cContainer Garden Like a Pro\u201d. It will be launching within the next couple of weeks, just in time for many of you to begin your fall/winter gardens.

        "raw_content": "Japan's Trade Surplus Widens; Largest Surplus in 14 Months\nJapan's current account surplus rose to 550 billion yen in April from 170 billion yen in March. The surplus is the largest in 14 months.\nNominal exports rose by 4.6% reversing decline for the month while imports posted their second straight month-on-month drop but only after an import surge of some magnitude in February. Still, year-on-year exports are up by 9.1% and imports are up by a meager 1.2%. However, the trends for both flows are slowing; sequential growth rates show that both exports and imports demonstrate a steady lose in momentum as their growth rates diminish from 12-month to six-month to three-month. This is also signaled in the chart that shows that year-over-year flows; they too have been decelerating.\nWith the surplus up in Japan and with flows decelerating, a sharper reduction in the pace of imports is clearly one trend that is in train. Weak imports suggest weak domestic demand. And over this period, the terms of trade have deteriorated for Japan (import prices have risen by more than export prices). Deterioration in the terms of trade means that imports are becoming more expensive relative to exports; that signifies some loss in welfare. This is the result of rising oil prices over the past year.\nIn fact, when we switch over to look at Japan's trade flows expressed in real terms, we see more stability in exports which on a real basis show growth over all three-month, six-month and 12-month horizons but show no clear trend in those rates of growth. Real imports, however, do show ongoing deterioration and signal domestic demand is weakening. Of course, Japan did post a contraction in GDP in Q1 2018. Imports very much have been signaling that weakness. Over 12 months, import volume is down by 3.3% while exports are advancing by 5.5%. The export advance is helpful, but it is not enough to offset domestic weakness.\nOver the last year, the yen is up by 2% vs. the dollar; over the previous 12 months, it had slipped by 0.5% vs. the dollar. The dollar yen exchange rate has been relatively stable over the past two years. However, the broad yen exchange rate has fallen by 5.1% over 12 months and was lower by 1.2% over the preceding 12 months to that.\nOn balance Japan's trade flows are a good window into the inner workings of Japan's economy. Weak imports have pointed to weak domestic demand and that weakness has progressed and become more pronounced over the last three months with real imports falling at a 6.8% annualized rate as of April. Exports in real terms are up at only a 3.3% annualized rate in real terms over the last three months; not enough gusto to drive growth in the face of weak domestic demand. Japan still appears to be struggling with growth. And with that as the baseline case, the Bank of Japan's attempt to hit a 2% inflation target will become all the more difficult.",

The process is both intuitive and obsessive. The work has become increasingly dimensional, combining elements of painting, drawing, and sculpture. The wall behind the work is crucial as it allows for a network of shadows and often another layer of paint or marker. In my paper constructions there is a constant tension between the utter fragility of the rice paper and the structure of the piece. Paper is not necessarily a surface that lies flat. Persuading paper to curl, flop, twist, jut out, and bend in precarious ways is a major part of the process. Sometimes I add wire, string, and wood which creates different sorts of line and meaning in the work.",

The exhibition will then be moved to the Hof Culture House in Akureyri from the 13th \u2013 29th of October. Already on the first day it gathered a lot of attention from students at the University of Iceland, who every day go through the exhibition space, hundreds of them. At the opening, which was intended especially to students and teachers of the University, Prof. \u00d3lafur Th. Har\u00f0arsson, Dean of School of Social Sciences, addressed the guests, on behalf of the University and read a letter of gratitude and greetings from the director of the Nagasaki Peace Memorial Hall for the Atomic Bomb, Mr. Masanobu Chita, to the University of Iceland. Gunnella \u00deorgeirsd\u00f3ttir, adjunct lecturer in the Faculty of Japanese, gave their regards and Au\u00f0ur Hauksd\u00f3ttir, associate professor and chairman of the Vigd\u00eds Finnbogad\u00f3ttir Institute of Foreign Languages, hosted the ceremony.\nThe exhibition in the University of Iceland is hosted by the Vigd\u00eds Finnbogad\u00f3ttir Institute of Foreign Languages of the University of\nIceland. The exhibition came from the Reykjav\u00edk City Library, where 5,300 guests had visited the exhibition, of which were about 1,100 students in elementary school with their teachers, who did assignments related to the exhibition. We\u2019re already expecting about 250 elementary school students in addition at the University, as well as students from secondary schools, which have been specially invited. Teachers of the Political Science Department at the University have also devised assignments that their students will work in conjunction with the exhibition.\nOn the 4th of October will be a mini conference at the University on the status and prospects of total nuclear disarmament. The speaker will be Professor Gareth Evans, university rector and former foreign minister of Australia, who has for years been a leader in international negotiations on the elimination of nuclear weapons (http://www.gevans.org/).",

It's mildly interesting, I guess. My brother likes it a lot; I'm not a fan. Anyway, apparently he made up a lot of the stuff in his bio, like in his book and elsewhere when he claimed to have worked on the wedding cake for Prince Charles and Princess Diana-\n\"It was an English fruitcake that weighed over 360 pounds,\" he told the Toronto Sun. \"I worked on these elaborate side panels, which told the history of the royal Windsor and Spencer families in icing!\"\n\"I was at the school when that was happening,\" he said. \"They made the cake at the school where I was.\"\nDid he help make it?\n\"Picking fruit and things like that.\"\nAnyway, I first read about it here.

        "raw_content": "Political Party Funding through Electoral Bonds - Backward Leap to the Era of Secrecy\nImage courtesy: https://www.inkcinct.com.au\nBy Venkatesh Nayak\nWhile presenting the budget in the Lok Sabha (Lower House of Parliament) yesterday, the Hon'ble Finance Minister made some announcements about the manner in which he sought to make donations to political parties more transparent. If the proposals to amend the relevant laws are approved by Parliament, from April 2017 onwards, donations in cash can be made up to Rs. 2,000 only by any person; payments of higher value will be permitted only through cheques or digital mode and donors will be able to buy 'electoral bonds' that will be sold through commercial banks under the regulations made by the Reserve Bank of India. Some commentators have hailed this as a major step forward while some of us have expressed skepticism about this initiative.\nAn analysis of what the Government is proposing and what it means for transparency of political party funding is given below for readers to understand better without having to trawl through the Finance Bill, 2017. In short, if the amendments are approved by Parliament, political party funding is likely to become largely opaque in future. Here is why this is a very real possibility.\nWhat did the Union Finance Minister say?\nThe extract from the speech of the Hon'ble Finance Minister made in the Lok Sabha on the subject of transparency of electoral funding is reproduced word for word below:\n\"Transparency in Electoral Funding\n164. India is the world\u2019s largest democracy. Political parties are an essential ingredient of a multi-party Parliamentary democracy. Even 70 years after Independence, the country has not been able to evolve a transparent method of funding political parties which is vital to the system of free and fair elections. An attempt was made in the past by amending the provisions of the Representation of Peoples Act, the Companies Act and the Income Tax Act to incentivise donations by individuals, partnership firms, HUFs and companies to political parties. Both the donor and the donee were granted exemption from payment of tax if the accounts were transparently maintained and returns were filed with the competent authorities. Additionally, a list of donors who contributed more than `20,000/- to any party in cash or cheque is required to be maintained. The situation has only marginally improved since these provisions were brought into force. Political parties continue to receive most of their funds through anonymous donations which are shown in cash.\n165. An effort, therefore, requires to be made to cleanse the system of political funding in India. Donors have also expressed reluctance in donating by cheque or other transparent methods as it would disclose their identity and entail adverse consequences. I, therefore, propose the following scheme as an effort to cleanse the system of funding of political parties:\na) In accordance with the suggestion made by the Election Commission, the maximum amount of cash donation that a political party can receive will be `2000/- from one person.\nb) Political parties will be entitled to receive donations by cheque or digital mode from their donors.\nc) As an additional step, an amendment is being proposed to the Reserve Bank of India Act to enable the issuance of electoral bonds in accordance with a scheme that the Government of India would frame in this regard. Under this scheme, a donor could purchase bonds from authorised banks against cheque and digital payments only. They shall be redeemable only in the designated account of a registered political party. These bonds will be redeemable within the prescribed time limit from issuance of bond.\nd) Every political party would have to file its return within the time prescribed in accordance with the provision of the Income-tax Act.\nNeedless to say that the existing exemption to the political parties from payment of income-tax would be available only subject to the fulfilment of these conditions. This reform will bring about greater transparency and accountability in political funding, while preventing future generation of black money.\" [emphasis supplied]\nThe sub-heading related to political party funding and the last sentence of this section of the Hon'ble Finance Minister's speech indicate that the moves proposed are for greater transparency in political party funding.\nWhat amendments to which law are actually being proposed?\nIn order to achieve the aforementioned objectives the Finance Bill proposes to amend the following laws in the following manner. The extracts from the Finance Bill are reproduced below along with a brief explanation of what they imply\nI. AMENDMENTS TO THE RESERVE BANK OF INDIA ACT, 1934\n\"133. The provisions of this Part shall come into force on the 1st day of April, 2017.\n134. In the Reserve Bank of India Act, 1934, in section 31, after sub-section (2), the following sub-section shall be inserted, namely:\u2014\n\"(3) Notwithstanding anything contained in this section, the Central Government may authorise any scheduled bank to issue electoral bond.\nExplanation.\u2013\u2013 For the purposes of this sub-section, \u2018\u2019electoral bond\u2019\u2019 means a bond issued by any scheduled bank under the scheme as may be notified by the Central Government.\u2019\u2019. [emphasis supplied]\nIn other words, the RBI Act is sought to be amended to allow for the issuance of electoral bonds that individuals and companies can buy through commercial banks.\nII. RELEVANT AMENDMENTS TO THE INCOME TAX ACT, 1961\n\"11. In section 13A of the Income-tax Act, with effect from the 1st day of April, 2018,\u2014\n(I) in the first proviso,\u2014\n(i) in clause (b),\u2014\n(A) after the words \u201csuch voluntary contribution\u201d, the words \u201cother than contribution by way of electoral bond\u201d shall be inserted;\n(B) the word \u201cand\u201d occurring at the end shall be omitted;\n(ii) in clause (c), the word \u201c; and\u201d shall be inserted at the end;\n(iii) after clause (c), the following clause shall be inserted, namely:\u2014\n\u2018(d) no donation exceeding two thousand rupees is received by such political party otherwise than by an account payee cheque drawn on a bank or an account payee bank draft or use of electronic clearing system through a bank account or through electoral bond.\nExplanation.\u2013\u2013For the purposes of this proviso, \u201celectoral bond\u201d means a bond referred to in the Explanation to sub-section (3) of section 31 of the Reserve Bank of India Act, 1934.\u2019;\n(II) after the second proviso, the following proviso shall be inserted, namely:\u2014\n\u201cProvided also that such political party furnishes a return of income for the previous year in accordance with the provisions of sub-section (4B) of section 139 on or before the due date under that section.\u201d. [emphasis supplied]\nSection 13A of the IT Act, 1961 relates to special provisions regarding the income reported by political parties registered with or recognised by the Election Commission of India. Section 139(4B) of the IT Act contains the reporting requirement for political parties.\nIn simpler terms, the IT Act is sought to be amended to exclude donations received by these political parties through \"electoral bonds from being reported to the IT Department every year in order for them to continue to avail the exemption from paying income tax.\nIII. AMENDMENTS TO THE REPRESENTATION OF THE PEOPLE ACT, 1951\n\"135.The provisions of this Part shall come into force on the 1st day of April, 2017.\n136. In the Representation of the People Act, 1951, in section 29C, in sub-section (1), the following shall be inserted, namely:\u2013\u2013\n\u2018Provided that nothing contained in this sub-section shall apply to the contributions received by way of an electoral bond.\nExplanation.\u2013\u2013For the purposes of this sub-section, \u201celectoral bond\u201d means a bond referred to in the Explanation to sub-section (3) of section 31 of the Reserve Bank of India Act, 1934.\" [emphasis supplied]\nSection 29C of the RP Act, 1951 for which the NDA Government claims credit during the Vajpayee-era requires all recognised national and State level political parties to make annual declarations of contributions received from individuals and companies in excess of Rs. 20,000/- The Election Commission of India publicises the contribution reports of recognised national political parties as well as those of the recognised State political parties on its website as and when it receives them. The Association for Democratic Reforms has recently disseminated a detailed analysis of the donor reports submitted by political parties for the financial year 2015-16. The findings were recently reported widely in the print and electronic media.\nIn other words, the import of the amendments proposed to the RP Act, 1951 is that political parties will not be required to disclose the identity of individuals and companies who make donations through electoral bonds bought from the commercial banks.\nJustification for these amendments provided in the Finance Bill, 2017\nThe Finance Bill contains the following justifications for amending these three laws:\nJustification for amending the RBI Act:\n\"Clauses 133 and 134 of the Bill seek to amend section 31 of the Reserve Bank of India Act, 1934 relating to issue of demand bills and notes.\nIt is proposed to insert a new sub-section (3) to the said section so as to provide that the Central Government may authorise any scheduled bank to issue electoral bond as\nreferred to in the proposed clause (d) of the first proviso to section 13A of the Income-tax Act.\nIt is also proposed to define the expression \u201celectoral bond\u201d.\nThis amendment is consequential in nature.\nThis amendment will come into force from 1st April, 2017.\" [see page 83 of the Finance Bill]\nJustification for amending the IT Act:\n\"Clause 11 of the Bill seeks to amend section 13A of the Income-tax Act relating to special provision relating to incomes of political parties...\nIt is proposed to amend the said section so as to provide, inter alia, that political party shall be eligible for exemption of income-tax under section 13A if,\u2014\n(i) no donation exceeding two thousand rupees is received otherwise than by an account payee cheque drawn on a bank or an account payee bank draft or use of\nelectronic clearing system through a bank account or through electoral bond;\n(ii) it furnishes a return of income for the previous year in accordance with the provisions of sub-section (4B) of section 139 on or before the due date as per section 139.\nIt is further proposed to provide that any contributions received by way of electoral bond shall be excluded from reporting as per clause (b) of said section.\nThese amendments will take effect from 1st April, 2018 and will, accordingly, apply in relation to the assessment year 2018-2019 and subsequent years.\" [see page 63 of the Finance Bill]\nJustification for amending the RPA Act:\n\"Clauses 135 and 136 of the Bill seek to amend section 29C of the Representation of the People Act, 1951 relating to declaration of donation received by the political parties.\nSub-section (3) of section 29C of the Representation of the People Act, 1951, inter alia, provides that every political party shall furnish a report to the Election Commission with\nregard to the details of contributions received by it in excess of twenty thousand rupees from any person in order to avail the income-tax relief as per the provisions of Income-tax\nAct,1961.\nIt is proposed to provide that the contributions received by way of \"electoral bond\" shall be excluded from the scope of sub-section (3) of section 29C of the said Act. It is also\nproposed to define the term \"electoral bond\" which is consequential in nature.\nThis amendment will take effect from 1st April, 2017.\" [see page 83 of the Finance Bill]\nElectoral bonds have the potential to make political party funding largely opaque\nIf approved by Parliament, the combined effect of the amendments to the RBI Act, the IT Act and the RP Act is likely to be as follows:\n1) Many political parties are likely to strive to receive cash donations below Rs. 2,000 only. Thanks to Section 29C of the RP Act which applies to donations of Rs. 20,000 or above only, these will not be required to be reported to the IT Department or to the Election Commission of India.\n2) As donations received through electoral bonds are exempt from being included in the annual reports of political parties to the IT Department or the Election Commission of India, these amounts will also not be reported.\n3) Only such contributions received about Rs. 20,000 through cheques or digital mode of payment will be required to be reported to the IT Department and the Election Commission of India.\nSo the combined effect of the amendments is that political parties will be under no obligation to disclose any donation or contribution that they receive at all, unless it is made electronically or through cheques.\nKeeping the Rajya Sabha out of the decision-making loop\nThe process through which these changes are proposed to be made are also hugely problematic. the Finance Bill is a Money Bill within the meaning of that term under Article 109 of the Constitution. Rajya Sabha being the Upper House has no powers to vote on make any amendments in money Bills. However the definition of \"Money Bill\" as provided in Article 110 of the Constitution is crystal clear. It cannot and must not include matters other than those relating to the imposition of taxes or matters related to the Consolidated Fund of India. The amendments proposed to the RBI Act, the IT Act and the RP Act clearly do not fall within this criteria. So once again the Government is trying to bulldoze amendments to other laws through legislation labelled 'money bill to prevent any actionable dissent in the Rajya Sabha. The political parties connived to a similar action in 2016 when the Foreign Contribution Act was amended to permit political parties to receive donations from Indian subsidiaries of MNCs. That proposal was also pushed through a Finance Bill. This is grave constitutional impropriety to say the very least and seems to be becoming a habit.\nIs this a step forward in political party funding or a leap backward into the era of secrecy ordained by law (and not absence of a law as was the case earlier), readers may decide for themselves.\nAs political parties are refusing to be covered under The Right to Information Act despite a June 2013 order of the Central Information Commission, citizens will not be able to access information about political funding through that channel either. So while the regulating agencies like the IT Department and the Election Commission are deprived of their powers to make political party funding transparent, citizens will also not have any means to find out which party has collected how much money and form whom. The entire exercise of demonetisation is also not likely to help bring in any transparency in the funding of political parties.\nThe Finance Minister seems to have gone back on his promise that the Government would implement every word of the Hon'be Prime Minister's speech made on new year's eve, where the PM assured the country about taking the lead to clean up political party funding.\nPress: Governancenow.com | Counterview | The Wire | Sabrang | Business Standard | Nerve.in | Daily World | Times Delhi | The Telegraph | National Herald | Sakal Times | FairyDetox | XNewsPress | HoyenTV",

        "raw_content": "Turkish PM slams US over alleged permission for ISIL to leave Raqqa\nTurkish Prime Minister Binali Y\u0131ld\u0131r\u0131m has once again criticized the United States\u2019 ongoing alliance with the People\u2019s Protection Units (YPG), after reports that the Syrian Kurdish group made a deal with the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) for the re-capture of Raqqa.\n\u201cSome have let [ISIL terrorists] leave Raqqa with their weapons instead of eliminating them from the city. Terrorists left with their weapons and the YPG-PKK has replaced them. One terror group left Raqqa and another settled there. Is this your rational policy? Is this your strategic, tactical cooperation?\u201d\nY\u0131ld\u0131r\u0131m said during a parliamentary group meeting of the ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP) on Nov. 14.\nThe U.S.-backed Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), which is dominated by YPG fighters that Ankara sees as organically linked to the outlawed Kurdistan Workers\u2019 Party (PKK), announced the liberation of Raqqa from ISIL on Oct. 17.\nHowever, the BBC has reported that a deal was struck between the SDF and ISIL to help thousands of fighters and their families escape from Raqqa along with their weapons and ammunition.\nThe evacuation convoy reportedly consisted of nearly 50 trucks and 13 buses, along with more than 100 vehicles of ISIL.\nPrime Minister Y\u0131ld\u0131r\u0131m said Turkey has repeatedly warned the U.S. not to collaborate with \u201cone terrorist group in order to fight another terrorist group.\u201d\n\u201cNow we see the results. The escaped [ISIL] members will be the reason for the deaths of innocent people in every corner of the world, including Turkey, Europe and America,\u201d he added.\nWhen asked about the report, the U.S. Department of Defense Spokesman on Iraq and Syria said Washington \u201crespected the agreement.\u201d\nMeanwhile, referring to his recent meeting with U.S. Vice President Mike Pence in Washington, Prime Minister Y\u0131ld\u0131r\u0131m stressed that Turkey \u201cdoes not intent further strain or worsen ties\u201d with the U.S.\n\u201dWe want to maintain a positive agenda with the U.S.,\u201d he said, adding that Ankara expects a normalization of visa services with the U.S. soon.\nThe Turkey-U.S. visa row was sparked on Oct. 8 when the U.S. Embassy in Ankara announced the suspension of non-immigrant visa services to Turkish nationals within Turkey, prompted a tit-for-tat retaliation from Ankara.\nThe embassy\u2019s move came after the arrest of Metin Topuz, a local employee at the U.S. Consulate in Istanbul.\nBinali Y\u0131ld\u0131r\u0131m, Raqqa, ISIL",

        "raw_content": "Quills and Monit and General Plone Grumbling\nServer Monitoring Utility: Monit.\nQuills is a portal-based weblogging product for Plone. I will be probably be using it for imaginaryplanet.org (indeed, I might be migrating this weblog to it if I can!).\nThe lead developer\u2019s weblog contains updates, along with the promise of a release upcoming next week. Speaking of which, it seems to be in the backend of the incredible publicknowledge plone site. (Here\u2019s the section full of quill posts ).\nI\u2019ve been grumbling lately about plone. First, I can\u2019t tell you how many times I\u2019ve come across error messages within plone sites. A cms shouldn\u2019t be prone to error. Second, I really haven\u2019t seen many good examples of small plone sites (with good usability). I\u2019ve seen well-done corporate sites, but they have the time and resources to make it good. I haven\u2019t seen many usable out-of-the-box plone sites. Third, commenting system is primitive. For example, it is still a nested view and hyperlinks are disabled for comments (smart for countering spam, stupid for facilitating discussion). Fourth, the conceptual model for plone just seems to get harder and harder. Getting templates and macros and products to work together just seems complicated (to say nothing of security or workflows). Part of the problem is that the software\u2019s management interface, while powerful, just doesn\u2019t make it easy to find the most important configuration elements. It took me a good while to figure out where the templates were.\nAllan Doyle 12/15/2004, 10:53 pm\nI\u2019d like to think we have a usable small site at EOGEO built from Plone. I agree that the underlying model is difficult to understand. It was easy to get running quickly, then things got harder as we tried to do more but remained doable. There\u2019s not much real Plone hackery on our site, just a bit of customization and a lot of trial and error. I did figure out how to do forms to let people sign up for a workshop and then get reports back out. The Definitive Guid to Plone and various Zope books have helped. Also, don\u2019t ignore the Plone IRC channel and the Plone newsgroups at gmane.com. I\u2019m still glad we picked Plone.\nActually, I\u2019ve spent the last day or so writing a book review about Andy\u2019s book and one other plone book. I\u2019ll be addressing the learning curve issue headon. The book review will run on slashdot.org next week.\nNext post: Economic Armageddon: Why?\nPrevious post: Credit Cards",

        "title": "Venezuela: The Protesters\u0092 Power Is Rising: News: The Independent Institute",
        "raw_content": "Venezuela: The Protesters\u0092 Power Is Rising\nBy Alvaro Vargas Llosa | June 13, 2014Also published in The National Interest on Wed. June 11, 2014\nCARACAS\u0097Venezuela\u0092s fifteen-year socialist dictatorship may be collapsing. Credit goes to Venezuela\u0092s students and new political leaders.\nThe economic damage and cruelty that the Venezuelan people have suffered (first, under the late President Hugo Chavez, and more recently, under the regime of Nicol\u00e1s Maduro, who succeeded Chavez in 2013) is palpable. One only needs to strike up a conversation at one of the student coffeehouses or visit the offices of Cedice, the thirty-year-old free-market think tank that has refused to bend or bow to the regime, to realize that the government has failed to extinguish the flame of liberty.\nYet, dozens of students are in jail and more than a thousand have been indicted. Reports of torture are common. The government has tried to co-opt them, intimidate them and even lure them into a farcical \u0093dialogue.\u0094 But they have stood their ground.\nAs Juan Requesens, leader of the youth revolution, told me on my recent visit to the Bolivarian Republic, these students\u0097who have known no other government than the cult of Chavez, \u0093chavismo\u0094\u0097have no intention of giving up. \u0093We will not sit down until they free political prisoners and stop all manner of torture.\u0094 They will continue their fight until true democracy under the rule of law is restored.\nSimilar courage is found elsewhere. Leopoldo L\u00f3pez, one of the high-profile leaders of the resistance movement, was jailed several months ago for joining Mar\u00eda Corina Machado, a congresswoman who was beaten up and stripped of her office, and Caracas Mayor Antonio Ledezma in seeking a \u0093way out\u0094 from the dictatorship through civil disobedience.\nDiosdado Cabello, the head of the National Assembly\u0097a corrupt thug and former military officer\u0097made a couple of surprise visits to L\u00f3pez\u0092s parents in the middle of the night to pressure them into persuading him to go into exile. I\u0092m told that Cabello even offered to \u0093negotiate\u0094 political asylum for L\u00f3pez with the U.S. government\u0097a bizarre offer since the Venezuelan government has blamed L\u00f3pez for killings that Maduro\u0092s paramilitary forces are reported to have carried out. L\u00f3pez\u0092s parents and his wife, Lilian (a hero in her own right), refuse to sell him out. \u0093He did nothing wrong,\u0094 she told me, \u0093and he will not leave his country. No matter what they do to him in jail.\u0094\nDespite the regime\u0092s continuing strong-arm tactics, civil society has been blossoming. Experts on constitutional law are volunteering through the human-rights organization Foro Penal Venezolano to represent indicted students and opposition leaders.\nIn some \u0093barrios,\u0094 people cook for young protesters, despite the fact that they have little themselves. In middle-class neighborhoods, families hide young Venezuelans for whom the government has arrest warrants. And journalists continue to do their best to tell the truth, despite government efforts to suffocate their newspapers by denying them foreign exchange with which to import newsprint.\nMaduro has tried to divide his foes by opening a dialogue with part of the Mesa de la Unidad Democr\u00e1tica, the opposition umbrella group, including Henrique Capriles, the Governor of Miranda, who barely lost to Maduro in a rigged election last year.\nAll that said, a consensus has emerged among opponents that a variety of tactics need to be pursued simultaneously. A dialogue with no street pressure and civil disobedience will lead nowhere, they understand. But eventually, when the government is forced to negotiate a way out, such dialogue will become inevitable if a bloodbath is to be avoided.\nEvery serious poll confirms, for the first time, that a solid majority of the public opposes the government. Even pro-\u0093chavista\u0094 polling companies, such as Instituto Venezolano de An\u00e1lisis de Datos, agree: In its most recent survey, 55 percent of Venezuelans considered Maduro a dictator. Key opposition figures are all more popular than Maduro, including Machado and L\u00f3pez\u0097who is now even ahead of Capriles.\nThere is still work to do. Not only does \u0093chavismo\u0094 command significant support in the barrios, where Chavez-style populism continues to have great appeal, it is sustained by a repressive police state designed (and in some cases led) by Cuba, complete with paramilitary forces that have massacred students in the streets and a military that has been systematically purged of potential dissidents.\nIt\u0092s hard to know just how long it will take for Venezuelans to rid themselves of this fifteen-year tyranny. But the process has begun. The government is desperately on the defensive and the opposition has finally reached critical mass. The economy is in free fall, with inflation at more than 60 percent, GDP growth at zero and acute shortages affecting nineteen basic products. As a result, whatever faith the people of the barrios had in the Chavez mystique is quickly eroding.\nThese are the hallmarks of a \u0093fin de si\u00e8cle\u0094 in Venezuela.",

        "raw_content": "Crowdfunded funerals on the rise\nWe\u2019re all familiar with the concept of crowdfunding being used to raise money to finance new products or rare medical procedures, but funerals?\nWelcome to 2017. Crowdfunding for funerals is on the rise in England. When Big Issue seller Peter Toulson last year, a friend set up an appeal to raise \u00a33,000 for his funeral. The friend managed to get more than \u00a35,000 from donations through the fundraising site JustGiving.\nAccording to figures from JustGiving, more than 2,000 funeral services were funded by crowdfunding from January to September in 2016. In the same period in 2015, there were less than 500 funerals paid for in this way.\nNo doubt, the rising costs of funerals plays a part in this increase. In England, funeral costs vary according to which part of the country you\u2019re in, but on average a funeral costs roughly \u00a33,700. This only covers the basics \u2013 a funeral director, a simple coffin and ceremony and hearse. If you want flowers, catering and a headstone, this pushes the price up considerably.\nThere is a Social Fund Funeral Payment that is supposed to help people on low incomes with funeral costs, but the maximum award for other funeral costs is fixed at \u00a3700 as it has been since 2003. Funeral director costs have risen steeply in that time, well above the rate of inflation.\nIf someone dies without money to pay for a funeral and there are no relatives who can cover the costs, often the only resort is a Public Health Funeral, sometimes called a pauper\u2019s funeral. Research by BBC News shows that such funerals cost councils \u00a31.7 million in 2013\u201314, relating to some 3,500 funerals.\nFinders International set up a Funeral Fund last year to help hard-pressed local authorities and health boards deal with the cost of Public Health Funerals.\nDaniel Curran, founder and managing director of Finders International, explains:\n\u201cThese will be cases where there are genuinely no known next of kin \u2013 rather than next of kin who just refuse to pay. We will have done the research to prove this and when we receive an application for a subsidy, we\u2019ll assess each case on its merits and decide whether or not we grant a payment. This might fund the funeral completely or partially. As hundreds of thousands of pounds is spent on Public Health Act funerals every year, we hope to make a small difference by giving funds to deserving cases.\u201d\nOn average, JustGiving users raised \u00a31,300 for each crowd-funded funeral in 2016. In total there were more than 52,000 donations, compared to 9,069 in January to September 2015.\nPeople can opt for a basic cremation which costs \u00a31,600 and just involves a cremation without a service. The singer David Bowie asked that there be no funeral or memorial service after he died last year. He was cremated shortly after he died with no family or friends present.\nTalking to the BBC about crowdfunded funerals, JustGiving\u2019s chief operations officer, Charles Wells said it could be a practical way for family, friends and the community to work together to help take the strain off families.\nTo find out more about Finders International\u2019s Funeral Fund, please see our website, email us at contact@findersinternational.co.uk or call us on Freephone (UK only) 0800 088 8796.\nImage Yolande\u2019s funeral, cc by Tom Coady on Flickr.\nThis entry was posted in Probate on 10 February 2017 by admin.\n10 things every probate solicitor needs to know\nProbate is the process required to get the court\u2019s permission to deal with a dead person\u2019s estate \u2013 collecting up assets, paying off any debts and distributing assets to the rightful heirs.\nIf the person who has died has left a valid will, the will usually names the executors (i.e. those responsible for dealing with the estate). If executors are not named or are not willing to act, the rightful heirs can apply to the probate registry for \u201cgrant of letters of administration (with will)\u201d.\nIf there is no valid will, relatives can apply for \u201cgrant of letters of administration\u201d. Administrators deal with estates in the absence of wills or executors.\nIf there is no will, then the rules of intestacy mean that there is an order for who inherits \u2013 spouse or civil partner, children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren, parents, siblings or their children, half-brothers or sisters and their children, grandparents, uncles, aunts or their children, half-uncles or aunts or their children and finally, The Crown or Duchy of Cornwall or Lancaster.\nGrant of probates are always needed if the deceased held assets worth more than \u00a315,000 in a bank account, but probate might not need to be obtained at all if the deceased\u2019s assets are owned jointly with another person \u2013 a husband or wife, for example.\nFinders International can help with estate administration \u2013 from tracing unknown beneficiaries right through to safe estate administration.\nFinders has a full international network and we can trace beneficiaries world-wide. In one recent case, we were able to trace beneficiaries in the Ukraine with news of life-changing sums of money.\nFor a full list of Finders International services for professionals, check out this link here.\nWe are members of the Professional Association of Legal Services.\nWe are the longest-standing supplier of Aviva online insurance policies \u2013 such as missing beneficiary indemnity insurance policies \u2013 and we are regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority.\nInstant telephone quotes or free advice is available from Finders International.

Due to this increased competition, prices in the probate market are likely to fall. This will help advisers whittle down the large total of \u00a3870m spent per year by probate solicitors\u2019 clients on resolving the delegation of the recently deceased\u2019s estates.\nThe increase in competition is directly linked to the fact that on November 3rd new legislation came into effect allowing chartered legal executives to offer probate assistance. Probate lawyers will now have outside competition for their services, and probate fees are likely to fall. Lower prices may invite the 46% of families that don\u2019t currently use professional services now to use them. Despite the fact that chartered accountants can now offer similar services to probate lawyers like Thomson Snell and Passmore from Kent and Dartford, they still have to reach a professional standard in order to be able to offer probate and conveyancing services. This is done by receiving authorisation from Ilex Professional Standards, to demonstrate that they are knowledgeable enough to practice in probate without the supervision of solicitors.\nAnalysis of the costs of probate lawyers settling disputes, done by the Glasgow-based company, have suggested that the average bills of probate and legal services for families and executors that use them comes to \u00a33,000, generating total fees of \u00a3870m per year. Fees in probate are charged in a number of different ways, which is why they vary extensively. For example, certain companies such as banks may charge a percentage of the estate\u2019s value; this is usually around 4% or 5% which can work out expensive compared to the likes of probate solicitors fees. Probate lawyers\u2019 fees are most likely to be constructed around standards set by the Law Society, usually around 0.75% of the value of the estate as an initial fee, plus around 1.5% of the value of other assets being dealt with such as accessories etc. Will-writers are often the cheapest option available due to the undercutting of prices to attract business.\nThe benefits that are offered by a fall in probate fees are stark. Families and executioners that would otherwise be priced out of the probate law market will now find it more financially accessible, meaning an increased number of probate lawyers will be in demand at a lower average price.\nTo find out more on probate and estate planning, visit the legal news website Solicitors Journal.\nThis entry was posted in Probate on 9 December 2014 by admin.",

        "raw_content": "Home Developer Google's Android SDK Comes Alive\nGoogle's Android SDK Comes Alive\nBy Sean Gallagher | November 13, 2007\nGoogle took several steps to goose interest in its yet-to-be-released Android platform for mobile phones today. The Open Handset Alliance, sponsored by Google and others, released a software development kit for Android. Google also hopes to stir up developer interest with a coding cook-off that will give out $10 million in awards.\nWithin hours of its release, the Android SDK had become \"one of the most downloaded items ever\" off Google's developer site, according to company spokesman Barry Schnitt. The toolkit, which included an emulator for software testing and a plugin for the Eclipse development tool, drew immediate reactions from developers ranging from \"phenomenally cool\" to \"a bit disappointing\".\nThe toolkit is licensed under the Apache 2.0 license, opening it up for wide repackaging with other developer tools. Google's Schnitt said that thus far there are no application tool partnerships to announce; however, the toolkit comes with an Eclipse plugin, so it is ready to integrate into many Java development environments.\nSun Microsystems CEO Jonathan Schwartz has already committed to Sun providing support for Android in its NetBeans integrated development environment. In his weblog, Schwartz congratulated Google, and said, \"I'd also like Sun to be the first platform software company to commit to a complete developer environment around the platform, as we throw Sun's NetBeans developer platform for mobile devices behind the effort. We've obviously done a ton of work to support developers on all Java-based platforms, and were pleased to add Google's Android to the list.\"\nThe Android SDK is based primarily on Java. However, it isn't based on J2ME, the version of Java already supported by existing commercial handsets; instead, it relies on a subset of the standard Java API\n\"In my opinion this is all a bit disappointing,\" wrote Jilles van Gurp, a developer who works at the Nokia Research Center, in his personal weblog. \"Not aligning with an existing profile of Java is a design choice that is regrettable. It makes Android incompatible with everything else out there which is unnecessary in my view. Additionally, Android seems to duplicate a lot of existing functionality from full Java, J2ME and various open source projects. I\u0092m sure that in each case there is some reason for it but the net result seems reinvention of a lot of wheels\"\nFor its part, Google is doing its best to seed developer enthusiasm. The company announced a $10 million \"Android Developer Challenge\", a two-phase bake-off that will reward the \"the developers whose applications leverage all that the Android platform has to offer in order to provide consumers with the most compelling experiences,\" a release from Google read. Individual prizes will range from $25,000 to $275,000, and developers who enter the contest will retain all intellectual property and other rights to their applications.\nThe challenge, according to Schnitt, evolved from an internal competition Google staged during early testing of the tools. \"We gave away five or six Nintendo Wii [game systems] internally,\" he said. \"The creativity and quality of the applications that came from outside of the mobile area within Google were actually more interesting than the ones that came from within. That's another reason we're hoping to get this broadly out there, to even people who aren\u0092t necessarily mobile developers.\"",

        "raw_content": "CEG purchase iconic building in Leeds South Bank\nCEG is to acquire the Grade One listed Temple Mill building on Marshall Street in an agreement made before the property was due to head to auction today.\nThe firm last night confirmed the purchase of the building in the South Bank area of Leeds city centre, which comes just months after submitting plans for a development on a 3.52 hectare derelict site in the same district for offices, retail, hotel, parking, homes and public spaces.\nIn recent years, the privately owned building, which is around 200 years old, had been earmarked for development by Burberry but this fell through.\nCEG Development director Jon Kenny said: \u201cWe are pleased to become the custodian of an important element of the city\u2019s historic culture and look forward to working with Leeds City Council to progress the regeneration of this challenging site.\u201d\nThe developer said that the reuse of the historic building, with its extensive physical and environmental liabilities, will require creative and innovative ideas. It has monitored the various initiatives throughout the years to bring Temple Mill back into use.\n\u201cAs a developer with a strong track record of working closely with Leeds City Council to unlock key regeneration sites, CEG welcomes the challenge the building offers.\n\u201cRecognising the difficulties that the redevelopment of this site has posed for many years, CEG, along with its technical team, aims to work closely with Leeds City Council together with other consultees and interested parties to explore viable and long term sustainable solutions for its redevelopment.\u201d\nCEG has managed investments in Leeds for many years, including the flagship Kirkstall Forge development and office assets at Thorpe Park and Albion Street.\nCEG added: \u201cWith a wealth of experience in place-making, transport strategy and regeneration, as well as detailed technical knowledge of the area and a history of engagement with its communities, CEG looks forward to continuing to work collaboratively with Leeds City Council to design a scheme which will benefit the city for future generations.\u201d\nLeader of Leeds City Council, councillor Judith Blake, said: \u201cIt\u2019s a very positive step that new owners have been secured for the historic Grade One Listed Temple Works. We will look to work collaboratively with CEG to bring this important part of Leeds\u2019 heritage back in to use and secure its long-term future.\u201d\nThe online description of the property when it was up for sale stated: \u201cGrade I Listed former Flax Mill extending to 10948 sq m (117,848 sq ft) approximately (the measurements exclude the \u201c1953\u201d infill and basements) in a state of disrepair, plus car park.\u201d\nThe building has offices, storage on workshops on three floors and the ground floor is still described as \u201cFormer Flax Mill.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Creative Cities Convention\nMedia and creative industries students from Leeds and Bradford colleges will network with TV movers and shakers at the Creative Cities Convention.\nTaking place at the Leeds College of Music, the event brings together a nationally significant line-up of creatives, industry leaders and commentators. It will celebrate the richness and diversity of talent and the growth of global production across the UK.\nThe line-up of speakers includes Alex Mahon from Channel 4, Charlotte May for the BBC, Peter Bazalgette for ITV, Channel 5\u2019s Ben Frow, John McVay for PACT, Bradford-born presenter Anita Rani, screenwriter Kay Mellor and will be hosted by Kirsty Wark.\nThe students will learn \u2018How to get a job in TV\u2019 at a Royal Television Society masterclass led by Leeds-based TV production company True North and Newcastle-based Lime Pictures. The session will include insider tips about job roles and insight into the opportunities available.\nAlex Watson, student at Bradford College said:\n\u201cIt\u2019s great to get the opportunity to come to an event like this, on my doorstep, to find out from experts how to get into TV. If Channel 4 came here it would be really exciting and make a career in TV seem within reach.\u201d\nRoger Marsh OBE Chair of Leeds City Region Enterprise Partnership said:\n\u201cI\u2019m delighted to welcome the Creative Cities Convention to Leeds. It\u2019s a real vote of confidence from the screen industry. The calibre of speakers is fantastic. It\u2019s great so many students have seized the opportunity to attend and find out how they can build a career in TV. The creative industries are a route to engaging our fast-growing, young population, as support for our #4sparks campaign shows. A Channel 4 presence here could be the spark that takes it to a new level.\u201d\n\u201cIn many ways this is a self-fulfilling prophecy. As a region we see a huge desire from the next generation of young, digital and diverse talent to pursue careers in the vibrant screen industry. In return the sector is committed to getting new voices on screen and the creation of new digital content. The Creative Cities Convention has provided a logical meeting place for these two ambitions to align.\u201d\nRuth Pitt, Director, Creative Cities Convention said:\n\"It\u2019s fantastic that Leeds City Region has enabled 40 young students who would not otherwise be attending our conference to hear up-to-the-minute industry debate, to network with producers and industry leaders and to tell us what they think of us. We need enthusiastic and diverse next-generation talent if our industry is to thrive in the future. Everything we do is being challenged by the revolution in how we produce and distribute programme content and I\u2019m sure they will teach us at least as much as we can teach them.\u201d\nThe convention comes at a time when the media has a bigger role than ever to play in improving how diverse audiences across the UK are reached and represented. It is also a time of opportunity. The UK's creative industries are growing twice as fast as the UK economy as a whole and account for \u00a392 billion of Gross Valued Added (GVA) and two million jobs.\nScreen Yorkshire reports that the growth of Yorkshire & Humber\u2019s film and TV industries outstripped that of every other part of the UK, including the South East. The figures showed that between2009-2015, Yorkshire\u2019s Film & TV Industries generated an annual turnover of \u00a3424 million across 590 creative businesses (an increase of 247 per cent against the UK average of 118 per cent) with Gross Value Added (GVA) increasing 242 per cent in comparison to a UK average growth of 120 per cent.",

        "raw_content": "\u201cOne thing is clear, faith communities can be a tremendous driver of change\u201d\nGathering at World Water Week in Stockholm, Sweden on 30 August, representatives from a range of faith communities and organizations engaged in water issues held a session exploring how faith communities can help achieve the sixth Sustainable Development Goal (SDG), ensuring availability and sustainable management of water and sanitation for all.\nThe session, entitled \u201cWater and Faith: Building partnerships to achieve the SDGs\u201d was the second consecutive one on faith and water at the annual World Water Week. By showcasing a range of good practices by faith communities done to help achieve the SDGs on water and sanitation, it highlighted the importance of working together, within church traditions, ecumenically and in engagement between faith communities and the water community at large.\nReflecting on the role of faith engagement in achieving the SDGs, Rev. Henrik Grape, of the Church of Sweden and coordinator of the World Council of Churches (WCC) Working Group on Climate Change, said, \u201cWe have sometimes thought in the past that for many climate and water issues, technology will come to the rescue in the end. But we see today that while there are a lot of hopeful developments in the area of technology and environmentally-friendly solutions, we also need value-based organizations and communities to act as a driving force, to act and achieve changes in our behavior and habits.\u201d\nThe theme of water runs through many of the world religions, the participants observed, and faith leaders rarely need to be convinced of the importance and sacredness of water as a source of life. Instead, a key point of focus should be on strengthening the many concrete water projects run by faith communities across the world.\nThe session was organized by the WCC Ecumenical Water Network in collaboration with Church of Sweden, Global Water Partnership, Stockholm International Water Institute, and Swedish Institute Alexandria.\nSource: World Council of Churches\nCategory : Islamic World News, Courses & Conferences | Rate : |",

Kuntze\nElaeagnus hortensis , M. Bieb\nElaeagnus moorcroftii , Wall. ex Schltdl.\nElaeagnus umbellata, Elaeagnus pungens\nNative to southern Europe and western Asia, Elaeagnus angustifolia is commonly found growing along floodplains, riverbanks, stream courses, marshes, and irrigation ditches Seedlings are tolerant of shade and the plant thrives in a variety of soil and moisture conditions, including bare mineral substrates.E. angustifolia can withstand competition from other shrubs and trees and can spread vegetatively by sprouting from the root crown and sending up root suckers. The fruits float and are probably dispersed via water transport. Also, the seeds ingested with the fruit by birds and small mammals are dispersed in their droppings.\nMuzika and Swearingen (1997) state that E. angustifolia is a small, usually thorny shrub or small tree that can grow to 9.1m in height. Its stems, buds, and leaves have a dense covering of silvery to rusty scales. Leaves are egg or lance-shaped, smooth margined, and alternate along the stem. Highly aromatic, the initial creamy yellow flowers are later replaced by clusters of abundant silvery fruits. Tesky (1992) states that the twigs are flexible, coated with a gray, scaly pubescence and often have a short thorn at the end The bark is thin with shallow fissures and exfoliates into long strips. It has a deep taproot and well-developed lateral root system.\nTesky (1992) states that the seeds can remain viable for up to 3 years and are capable of germinating over a broad range of soil types. Germination is enhanced by stratification in moist sand for 90 days at 5 deg C. Spring moisture and slightly alkaline soil tend to favour seedling growth.\nTesky (1992) states that E. angustifolia is often planted as an ornamental because of its silvery leaves and decorative fruit. It also has some value as a honey plant. It has been widely planted in shelterbelts throughout the prairie states. It has also been used for wildlife habitat plantings, erosion control and highway beautification. With its ability to increase available nitrogen in the soil, it is sometimes interplanted with other tree crops to increase their growth and yield. The dates are full of amino acids and are sold as dried fruit. It is grown for firewood in China in a coppicing system. (Wilcox, 2003).\nTesky (1992) reports that E. angustifolia it is tolerant of considerable amounts of salinity and alkalinity. However, it prefers sites with low to moderate concentrations (100-3,500 ppm) of soluble salts. The lower pH limit is 6. It thrives under a wide range of soil textures from sand to heavy clay, and can withstand flooding and silting. It grows best in deep sandy or loamy soils with only slight salt and alkali content. Dense, healthy stands are present in river bottoms where the water table is seldom more than 2 feet (0.6 m) below the surface. In contrast, it survives considerable drought. It can withstand temperatures ranging from -45 deg C to 46 deg C. It occurs from sea level to at least 2,438 m. It is somewhat shade tolerant and can withstand competition from other shrubs and trees. In the United States naturalization is rapidly increasing, especially in riparian zones. It is commonly found growing along floodplains, riverbanks, stream courses, marshes, and irrigation ditches in the western areas of the United States.\nMuzika and Swearingen (1997) state that establishment and reproduction of E. angustifolia is primarily by seed, although some vegetative propagation also occurs. At three years of age, plants begin to flower and fruit. Tesky (1992) states that it sprouts from the root crown and sends up root suckers. It can grow up to 1.8m per year and the average seed-bearing age of this species is 3 to 5 years. Each fruit has a single seed at the centre.\nBorrell (1976) indicates that planting of E. angustifolia has been promoted to benefit wildlife as cover and food source. Russian olive is sold by the State of Montana for wildlife plantings.Muzika and Swearingen (1997) state that E. angustifolia was first cultivated in Germany, and was introduced into the U.S. in the late 1800s. It was planted as an ornamental, and subsequently escaped into the wild.\nPrincipal source: SPECIES: Elaeagnus angustifolia\\r\\n(Tesky, 1992)\\r\\n Russian Olive Elaeagnus angustifolia L. (Muzika and Swearingen, 1997)\nReview: Scott H. Stoleson, Research Wildlife Biologist USDA Forest Service, Northeastern Research Station.

Downloaded from http://www.iucngisd.org/gisd/species.php?sc=216 on 16-02-2019.\nMuzika and Swearingen (1997) cite that E. angustifolia can outcompete native vegetation, interfere with natural plant succession and nutrient cycling, and tax water reserves. It is capable of fixing nitrogen in its roots, so it can grow on bare, mineral substrates and dominate riparian vegetation where overstory cottonwoods have died. Although it provides a plentiful source of edible fruits for birds, ecologists have found that bird species richness is actually higher in riparian areas dominated by native vegetation. Tesky (1992) states that it can interfere with agricultural practices and it rapidly colonizes lowland fields, often chokes irrigation ditches, and damages tyres and equipment.\nPhysical: Tesky (1992) states that once established, E. angustifolia is difficult to control and nearly impossible to eradicate. Efforts to control unwanted concentrations have included mowing seedlings, cutting, burning, spraying, girdling, and bulldozing. Most efforts have realized limited success. Stump sprouting commonly occurs after cutting down the tree, and excavation of the entire stump can trigger root sprouting (SWEPIC, 2002). Burning is practical when conditions support a hot fire. Saplings are most sensitive. The fire must be hot enough and burn long enough to incinerate the stumps of larger trees. Spring and winter burns are usually less effective than summer or early fall burns.\n\\r\\nBiological: Tubercularia canker overwinters on infected stems and spreads via rain-splash, animals, or pruning implements to open wounds in the bark. Infected tissue becomes discoloured or sunken. Entire stems may be girdled and killed, and the disease can deform or kill stressed plants over time (Herman et al. 1996, Jackson et al. 2000, in SWEPIC, 2002). Cankers sometimes exude gum at the margins. Phomposis canker kills seedlings and saplings, causing dieback and cankers on larger plants (Sinclair et al. 1987, in SWEPIC, 2002). Lasiodiplodia theobromae (syn. Botrydiplodia theobromae, Diplodia natalensis) is the pycnidial state of Botryosphaeria rhodina, a pathogen that causes cankers and dieback in many woody and herbaceous species. It often attacks plants weakened by environmental stress or other pathogens and has caused death of E. angustifolia in windbreaks and shelterbelts in the Great Plains of the United States. This fungus often strips the dead bark up to several metres long, sometimes with small dead branches along the killed strip.\n\\r\\nIntegrated management: Apparently the most effective combination of control efforts has been cutting trees, followed by either spraying or burning the stumps (Tesky, 1992). SWEPIC (2002) reports that E. angustifolia is sensitive to 2,4-D ester, triclopyr, 2,4-D + triclopyr, imazapyr, and glyphosate. However, effective control with these compounds almost always requires follow-up treatments for 1 to 2 years. 2,4-D ester is applied to the foliage. It requires good coverage for acceptable results. 2,4-D + Triclopyr is applied either as a foliar spray or a directed spray to the basal bark of the tree. Triclopyr is applied as a directed spray to the basal bark of the tree. Basal applications require good saturation of the bark and diesel fuel is frequently used as the carrier. Imazapyr [Arsenaltm, Containtm] is applied undiluted to frill cuts made in the stem. Glyphosate is also applied to frill cuts. Glyphosate has provided very good control using a glyphosate \u201cHack and Squirt\u201d treatment that is applied during the winter months. Trees are \u201chacked\u201d with a hatchet that injects glyphosate into the wound.\nCountries (or multi-country features) with distribution records for Elaeagnus angustifolia\nInformations on Elaeagnus angustifolia has been recorded for the following locations.

        "raw_content": "Yixing Teapots Info\nYixing clay teapots are traditional style unglazed clay teapots commonly used to infuse tea that originated in China. Their creation and use dates back to either the 8th, 10th, or 15th century, depending on the source you read. They are made from clay produced in the region of the town of Yixing in the eastern Chinese province of Jiangsu.\nAccording to some literary references, the first Yixing teapot was created during the Song Dynasty (10th century) that a monk from Jinsha Temple (Golden Sand Temple) in Yixing handcrafted a teapot from local clay, but it did not flourish until Ming Dynasty (15th century). Others trace these pots back to the 8th century and a book called The Classic of Tea (Chinese: \u8336\u7d93 or \u8336\u7ecf; pinyin: Ch\u00e1 j\u012bng), written in the 8th century by Lu Yu (Chinese: traditional \u9678\u7fbd, simplified \u9646\u7fbd; pinyin: L\u00f9 Y\u01d4; 733\u2013804); it is supposedly the first known treatise on the subject of the gongfu style tea method and preparing tea using whole leaves instead of ones that were ground up or pressed into cakes. Potters in the Yixing Province started using the purple clay in the area to make small teapot suited to this style of steeping tea. The pottery quickly took on an artistic dimension and certain body styles became quite common.\nYixing teapots are not actually made in the regional city of Yixing, but rather in nearby Dingshan, also known as Dingshu, which falls within the administrative area of Yixing. Hundreds of teapot shops line the edges of the town's crowded streets and it is a popular tourist destination for many Chinese. While Dingshan is home to dozens of ceramics factories, Yixing Zisha Factory Number 1, which opened in 1958, processes a large part of the clay used in the region, produces fine pottery ware, and has a large commercial showroom. In addition to the better known teapots, other items are manufactured in the community, including frescoes, oil and grain jars, flower vases, figurines, glazed tiling, tables, ornamental rocks, and ornamental garbage bins.\nJudging the Quality of Yixing\nWhen judging the quality of Y\u00edxing teapots the following can be done:\nTap the pots lightly together \u2013 the ceramic should make a distinctly metallic sound.\nLook at the fit of the lid into the pot \u2013 it should be flush and appear seamless.\nFill the pot with water, place the lid on, and begin pouring the water \u2013 it should pour smoothly\nWhile pouring, place your finger over the hole on the lid \u2013 this action should stop the flow of water immediately and completely if the lid is well fitted.\nFive Yixing Clay Teapots - showing\na variety of styles from formal to\nYixing teapots are meant for use with black and oolong teas, as well as aged pu-erh tea. They can also be used for green or white tea, but the water must be allowed to cool to around 85\u00b0C before pouring the water into the pot. With \"Zisha\" (a purple-sand clay found only in Yixing) teapots, a tiny amount of tea is absorbed into the pot during brewing. After prolonged use, the pot will develop a coating that retains the flavor and color of the tea. It is for this reason that soap should not be used to clean Yixing teapots. Instead, it should be rinsed with fresh water and allowed to air-dry.\nThe physical size of these fine teapots are smaller than Western counterparts because they are designed for individual use. Traditionally, some Chinese would pour the tea from the spout directly into their mouths.\nYixing teacups meant for steeping tea directly in the cup are also available.\nK.S.

        "raw_content": "By: A. Freimann\nAn ancient principality of Germany, now a state of the German empire; formerly divided into four duchies: Anhalt-Bernburg, Anhalt-Dessau, Anhalt-K\u00f6then, and Anhalt-Zerbst. Its former capital was Zerbst, a town on a tributary of the Elbe, situated about ten miles northwest of Dessau. Jews are known to have been permitted to live here before the year 1440, and it is said that the \"J\u00fcdenstrasse\" (Jews' Street) dates from the fifteenth century. According to an agreement made in 1460 and a document drawn up in 1488, the revenue derived from the Jews was to be divided between the prince of Anhalt and the town of Zerbst. The Jews owned no real estate there, and seem to have lived in the town at irregular intervals, and then only in small numbers. In 1774 several families from Dessau settled at Zerbst. But the settlement of Jews in other towns of the duchy is even more recent than this.\nAt Bernburg, also the capital of the duchy of Anhalt with which its name is linked, a city situated on the Saale, there was a synagogue in 1454; and here, in 1462, Bernhard VI., prince of Bernburg, sold to Tile Goldschmidt a house near the \"Joddenschulen.\"\nIn Dessau, the capital of the duchy of Anhalt-Dessau, a city about eighty miles southwest of Berlin, a small number of Jews lived in 1621. Here Prince George II. permitted them to build a synagogue, and he gave them the use of a cemetery as well as a piece of land for a hospital (he\u1e33desh). In the villages of Anhalt-Dessau the Jews lived in large numbers.\nIn 1764 Prince Leopold granted the Jews a constitution and issued regulations for the maintenance of their credit. He abolished the poll-tax in 1804, and permitted the Jews of Woerlitz to build a synagogue. In the same year Leopold recognized the Franzschule as a Jewish public school.\nImportant Hebrew printing-houses existed at K\u00f6then from 1622 to 1717, and at Jessnitz from 1719 to 1726. The Jews of the principality were compelled to take family names at Bernburg in 1810, at K\u00f6then in 1811, and at Dessau in 1822. In 1810 civil rights were granted in Bernburg, and in 1811 in K\u00f6then. In 1848 all restrictions were abolished.\nAnhalt is remarkable for the great number of Jewish scholars it has produced. Moses Mendelssohn and Ludwig Philippson came from Dessau; the historian Jost, from Bernburg; the mathematician Unger, from Coswig; the philosopher Steinthal, from Gr\u00f6bzig; and the preacher Salomon, from Sandersleben.\nDie Juden unter d.

Jetly, Senior Psychiatrist and Mental Health Advisor to the Canadian Forces Surgeon General, discussed the various initiatives in the Canadian military to support mental health resilience of its personnel.\nDemystifying mental illness has been an important focus over the years. Its Road to Mental Readiness program, for example, aims to provide evidence-based mental health education for personnel throughout their career and deployment cycles. The goal is to increase mental health literacy by decreasing the stigma of mental illness and any barriers to care.\nHe noted there is no clear line between someone who is mentally healthy or mentally ill. There is a continuum of mental health, and when it comes to responding to adverse or stressful events, everyone responds in their own way. He noted it is okay to feel distressed \u2013 or not \u2013 after an event is over. But if someone feels they need additional support, it is more effective to reach out sooner rather than later.\nDr. Elspeth Cameron Ritchie, a retired U.S. Army Colonel and long-time forensic psychiatrist speaks to first responders at the New Westminster Campus\nIn late March at the New Westminster Campus, law enforcement personnel and other first responders had a chance to listen and speak with Dr. Elspeth Cameron Ritchie, a retired U.S. Army Colonel, and long-time forensic psychiatrist specializing in military and veterans\u2019 issues.\nThe event was coordinated with the Vancouver office of the U.S. Consulate-General and part of a national speaking tour where Dr. Ritchie spoke with Canadian military personnel, clinical staff, law enforcement professionals, and other first responders located across the country.\nAmong the key points in her presentation, Dr. Ritchie encouraged law enforcement professionals and other first responders to learn more about PTSD to remove the stigma associated with it, and know how to evaluate for it in themselves and others.\n\u201cI think it\u2019s important for police officers, firefighters and emergency medical personnel to acknowledge that they can be impacted by what goes on around them and pay attention to any symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder,\u201d she said. \u201cPTSD is treatable, and like anything in medicine, the earlier it\u2019s treated, usually the more effective the treatment is.\u201d\nHighlighting her experience addressing PTSD in the U.S. military, she also noted the importance of realizing that each person responds to stress and traumatic events differently.\n\u201cIn some people, the symptoms go away on their own, and some people have a relapsing course. PTSD is unique in that it can be triggered by sights, sounds or smells. You might be doing fine for a while, and then you smell or see something and that takes you back into a traumatic event.\u201d\nIn her presentation, Dr. Ritchie noted that there is a wide range of options available today to treat PTSD from traditional psychotherapy and medication to acupuncture, yoga, meditation, art therapy, horseback riding and even training service dogs. In her experience with U.S. veterans, she noted that a treatment program incorporating a number of different therapies is often the most effective for those with PTSD.\n\u201cIf the first treatment doesn\u2019t work, then try something else, because I\u2019ve been struck that it\u2019s not one treatment fits all. Some people will go get treatment, and will get medication, but don\u2019t like it, and say it doesn\u2019t work and give up. But there is a wide range of options out there. They may not be treatments by themselves, but, combined, they help a lot,\u201d she said. \u201cWe may not have all the rigorous trials for each treatment, but there is evidence to say it works. Some people will swear by them.\u201d\nTags: demystifying mental illness, mental health, PTSD\ndemystifying mental illness",

        "raw_content": "Sayf al-\u2018Adl and al-Qa\u2019ida\u2019s Historical Leadership\nMay 18, 2011 by Vahid Brown 31 Comments\nIn light of the widely reported news that Sayf al-\u2018Adl (also spelled Saif al-Adel) has taken the reins of operational leadership within al-Qa\u2019ida in the wake of the death of Osama bin Laden, I thought it would be useful to Jihadica\u2019s readers to provide a bit of context about this man and about the significance, if any, of these reports (see, e.g., Musharbash and Bergen), all of which rely on the testimony of Noman Benotman, a former leader of the Libyan Islamic Fighting Group.\nFirst of all, it would be more correct to say that Sayf al-\u2018Adl remains the operational leader of al-Qa\u2019ida rather than that he has lately assumed this rank. (Nor is this the first time that Benotman has called attention in the press to Sayf\u2019s operational re-emergence in al-Qa\u2019ida. He discussed Sayf\u2019s release from Iran and return to headquarters, as it were, with Der Speigel last October) Several al-Qa\u2019ida insiders have reported since 2009 that Sayf took the top slot in al-Qa\u2019ida\u2019s military committee after the 2001 death of Abu Hafs al-Masri (Muhammad Atef). These sources also evidence long standing tensions within the organization about Zawahiri being AQ\u2019s second-in-command, next in line to lead should Bin Laden exit the scene.\nThis much can be gleaned from Abu Jandal (Nasser al-Bahri), the Yemeni former bodyguard of Bin Laden, who has much to say on both points in his 2010 memoir. Abu Jandal broke with al-Qa\u2019ida after 9/11, but according to him up to that point the chain of command in operational terms was clearly Bin Laden, Abu Hafs, Sayf, and then Abu Muhammad al-Masri (Abdullah Ahmad Abdullah). With Abu Hafs dead, Sayf took the operational lead as head of the military committee. As for the doubts about Zawahiri, at the end of his book Abu Jandal asks himself what would happen if Bin Laden died, and answers that while Zawahiri would theoretically replace him, \u201cto me, Zawahiri does not possess the requisite qualities to lead the organization.\u201d He goes on to say (translating from the French here):\n\u201cBin Laden is a born leader. He commanded al-Qa\u2019ida with a certain transparency, rendering him universally acceptable; he is open to dialogue; and he has historical legitimacy. Zawahiri, though, conducts his affairs in secret. There are numerous members of al-Qa\u2019ida that would not accept Zawahiri taking over. His behavior and that of the Egyptians have generated a great deal of reserve, sometimes very harsh criticism. All of this has left its mark. His statements, as we have seen, are sometimes dismissed. I doubt he has sufficient authority for such a position, even with his well-known authoritarianism and his penchant for centralizing power in himself\u201d (p. 281).\nMuch more revealing is Abdullah Muhammad Fazul\u2019s two-volume autobiography, released online in early 2009. Fazul joined al-Qa\u2019ida as a teenager in 1991, and his trainer at al-Faruq Camp \u2013 then located at the Haqqani compound at Zhawara, in southeastern Afghanistan \u2013 was none other than Sayf al-\u2018Adl. Fazul is no fan of Zawahiri, of whom he sometimes writes dismissively, as a Johnny-come-lately hanger-on. He repeatedly emphasizes that he is loyal to what he calls \u201cmother al-Qa\u2019ida,\u201d and says that the \u201chistorical leadership\u201d of this old-school al-Qa\u2019ida did not change when Zawahiri decided in 2000 to merge up his all-but-defunct Jihad al-Islami organization with Bin Laden\u2019s. Here are two representative excerpts, one from 2007, the other from late 2008 or early 2009, in both of which Sayf is clearly identified as al-Qa\u2019ida\u2019s operational boss:\n\u201cAfter we learned of the death of Dadullah there was a reorganization of the leadership of the old guard of al-Qa\u2019ida. It was announced today [late May, 2007] that Shaykh Sa\u2019id (Abu Yazid), who was in charge of al-Qa\u2019ida\u2019s financial affairs since its founding and was the first leader of the former Finance Committee, has been made the new Amir of al-Qa\u2019ida\u2019s branch in Afghanistan. This is of a new strategy to confuse the Americans and is the best way to turn the people to the new leaders\u2026This is also to show the Americans and Westerners waging their war on us that they fail to understand our leaders and that the central leadership is fine. So the general Amir Usama bin Ladin is fine and in good health, and the financial leadership is fine and under the command of Shaykh Sa\u2019id. As for the shari\u2019a leadership, all of them are in Iran and living safely under the leadership of the esteemed shaykh Abu Hafs al-Muritani. As for the military and security leadership, it is no secret to anyone that the strikes in Afghanistan have proven the preparedness of these leaders. All of them are fine, and brother Shaykh Abu Muhammad al-Masri and Shaykh Sayf al-\u2018Adl are both well and in Iran and continue the struggle in consultation with their brothers the field commanders in Afghanistan, such as brother Khalid al-Habib and Abu Islam al-Masri known as Shu\u2019ayb. We were gladdened by the announcement of Shaykh Sa\u2019id\u2019s new amir position, as it came after the capture of our beloved brother Shaykh \u2018Abd al-Hadi al-\u2018Iraqi, may God break his bonds. So long as the heads of the committees that comprise the mother al-Qa\u2019ida remain fine, then insha\u2019allah all things will be fine.\u201d (From vol. 2, p. 310)\nThe following excerpt is from a lengthy discussion of al-Qa\u2019ida\u2019s quest for nuclear weapons (vol. 2, p. 499):\n\u201cI say that the mystery of the word al-Qa\u2019ida is one that few have understood. There is the mother al-Qa\u2019ida, there are the collaborators, and there are the Afghan Arabs who worked together during the Afghan jihad, and now all are characterized as \u201cal-Qa\u2019ida.\u201d In the same way, the Egyptian Islamic Jihad under the leadership of Ayman al-Zawahiri is referred to as \u201cal-Qa\u2019ida\u201d even before the unification and integration. He is called the number two man in the organization, but we don\u2019t have firsts and seconds in Islam, all are equal before God, and in any case I have never once taken orders from Zawahiri. Although he became the deputy of the Shaykh [UBL] after unification, and followed the same management style, the number two man in the mother al-Qa\u2019ida organization is brother Sayf al-\u2018Adl, after the killing of Shaykh Abu Hafs the Commander (God have mercy on him), and we do not take orders from anyone but our historical leadership.\u201d\n(For more on Fazul and the al-Qa\u2019ida succession question, see Nelly Lahoud\u2019s recent article here.)\nThat Sayf has been hands-on with al-Qa\u2019ida field operations since 2001 is well-known; some of the evidence was rehearsed in a backgrounder put out by longwarjournal today. (See also my profile of Sayf as of 2007, here at p. 119.) Sayf was responsible for forging al-Qa\u2019ida\u2019s ties with Zarqawi, as we know from Sayf\u2019s own memoir on this published by Fu\u2019ad Hussayn in 2005. More recently, US military intelligence claimed to have intercepted letters in 2008 between al-Qa\u2019ida leaders \u2013 including Sayf, who is referred to as a second-in-command in this context \u2013 and AQI, which show al-Qa\u2019ida Central struggling to clean up Zarqawi\u2019s mess in Iraq. Less well known is Sayf\u2019s role in the killing of Daniel Pearl. Khalid Sheikh Muhammad told FBI interrogators in 2007 that it was Sayf who tipped him off about Daniel Pearl\u2019s kidnapping and directed him to make an al-Qa\u2019ida propaganda coup out of it.\nDuring all this time, then, Sayf and Abu Muhammad al-Masri retained operational leadership of al-Qa\u2019ida from their hideouts in Iran, but more recently Sayf and other members of the \u201chistorical leadership\u201d have gone public again. Readers of Jihadica will know this already; I wrote about Sayf\u2019s first batch of new letters here and Will has begun to shed light on the newest batch of letters here. What changed?\nThe story goes something like this. In late 2008, Iranian diplomat Heshmat Attarzadeh was kidnapped in Peshawar, and then sold down the river to Pakistani Taliban custody in South Waziristan. Iran, in pursuit of his release, sought the good offices of the Haqqani network leadership, who engineered a swap in 2009: Attarzadeh for Sayf and a number of other \u201chouse arrested\u201d al-Qa\u2019ida figures, including Abu Hafs al-Muritani, Sulayman Abu al-Ghayth, and several members of Bin Laden\u2019s family. The story first broke in the Afghan press at the beginning of April, 2010, in a story in Pastho on Weesa.net (no longer available online). Abu\u2019l-Walid al-Masri then posted a translation of the story to a forum, and at the end of the month Syed Saleem Shahzad came through with one of his characteristically colorful stories about the whole affair. Some of the details remain slightly fishy \u2013 why, for example, would Iran trade such potentially valuable bargaining chips for a minor diplomat? \u2013 but whatever the case it was only after this that all of the above-named folks began releasing statements via Abu\u2019l-Walid\u2019s blog. That al-Qa\u2019ida\u2019s operational commander, top religious cleric and former spokesman all released new statements on the website of one of al-Qa\u2019ida\u2019s most virulent critics, and not through official al-Qa\u2019ida channels, does indicate a certain amount of distance between these men and Zawahiri, commander-in-chief of al-Qa\u2019ida TV.\nThis is already a too-long blog post, so I\u2019ll leave it at that and try to return this weekend with some comments on Sayf\u2019s strategic outlook and what it might mean for al-Qa\u2019ida if he, and not Zawahiri, were to become the face of global jihad.\nTwo further points of interest. Asra Nomani today shared further details about Sayf al-\u2018Adl\u2019s role in the Daniel Pearl case, pointing out that Sayf had advised KSM not to kill the journalist.\nSecondly, Sayf al-\u2018Adl is not Muhammad Ibrahim Makkawi. Colonel Makkawi is ten years older than Sayf and a number of insiders who knew both men in Afghanistan \u2013 including Abu Jandal, Noman Benotman, Abu\u2019l-Walid al-Masri and Yasir al-Sirri \u2013 have confirmed numerous times over the years that they are two different people. Both were officers in the Egyptian military; Sayf was a paratrooper and colonel in the Egyptian special forces before his 1987 arrest. Both fought at the infamous battle of Jalalabad in 1989, and around that time Sayf joined Bin Laden\u2019s group and Makkawi remained with Zawahiri\u2019s EIJ, though in the early 1990s he had a falling out with Zawahiri and quit the group. Sayf himself, at the end of the fifth letter in his most recent batch of communications posted on Abu\u2019l-Walid\u2019s blog, also emphatically states that Colonel Makkawi and Sayf are two different people. The one photo we have and which has become ubiquitous in the press lately is indeed of Sayf, not Makkawi, though since that photo was taken Sayf was injured in his right eye. It is surprising that the Makkawi-Sayf confusion persists, given that Muhammad al-Shafi\u2019i drew attention to this case of mistaken identity seven years ago.\nFiled Under: AQ Central, AQ Leadership, Uncategorized, Zawahiri\n\u00ab Crowdsourcing the Revolution\nNow We Know \u00bb\nYassin Musharbash says\nExcellent analysis, thank you very much! And while I believe your reading of Saif\u2019s current job being much the same as the one he held before, I do believe there may be one interesting aspect in what Benotman relayed \u2013 which is that in the absence of an officiall declaration as to the new amir, Saif al-Adel seems to be the go-to-guy not only by default (which you would have expected) but also by consensus or even decision (which is a bit less obvious).\nSelected Wisdom says\nOutstanding Vahid,\nThanks to you and Yassin for running this to ground. I released some poll results today and few were tracking Saif al-Adel\u2019s role.\nThis is an excellent analysis and I\u2019m looking forward to the next post.\nPS For those interested: The APIEGEL article from last October discussing Saif al-Adel\u2019s return to Waziristan is also available in English here http://www.spiegel.de/international/world/0,1518,725181,00.html\nBrian Fishman says\nDamnit, Vahid. You should have written this six months ago!\nGreat piece. My only thought is that we need to keep a healthy skepticism about the Shahzad story. My guess is that we\u2019re missing a lot. Even assuming Attarzadeh was IRGC/Qods Force, it is still a hell of a trade. How does that ledger balance for Iran?\nMore to the point, any thoughts on how Sayf will go over with the younger set in AQ? Despite his recent publications, he hasn\u2019t been reaching out virtually to new jihadis like others in the movement.\nJudaica Jewelry says\nWell we knew someone would take over, let\u2019s hope his leadership skills and fundraising ability pale in comparison to his predecessor.\nShahzad is now dead\u2026.\nMamood says\nDid you all see the videos that showed UBL dyed his beard? Who would have thought that aomng all the other things he was, he was also gay.\nA man is allowed to die his beard black if he is engaged in jihad. Check your library of Ahadith. You will also find it in jurisprudential works from the Abbasid Dynasty. (Al-Ahkham As-Sultaniyyah, The Laws of Islamic Governance, p. 362) and also the online \u201cBook of Jihad\u201d if it is still available.\nHis actions, etiquette and conduct was based on his understanding and grasp of Islamic jurisprudence.\nSayf al-\u2019Adl and al-Qa\u2019ida\u2019s Historical Leadership \u2014 jihadica \u00ab Yahyasheikho786's Blog says:\n[\u2026] Sayf al-\u2019Adl and al-Qa\u2019ida\u2019s Historical Leadership \u2014 jihadica.

They decided to form a new club which catered exclusively for the owners of the Jowett Jupiters. Regular pub meetings took place first at the Cambridge and later at the Abbey on the North Circular Road.\nWith the passage of time, and the increase in motoring costs and number of members, several changes were implemented. Meetings were organised throughout the country, beginning with the introduction of the Annual Dinner and associated field event. The decision was made to admit associate members who were not Jupiter owners, and regular monthly pub meetings were discontinued, although there remain small groups of members who continue to meet informally.\nJowett Jupiters at the 2013 JOAC AGM & Dinner held at Sywell Aerodrome, Northants",

        "raw_content": "Surviving in Marriage\nIf you\u2019d like to know what question I think is worth answering, read on. You see, surviving means staying alive. It means staying alive in spite of hardship. It\u2019s a word used to describe people who manage to live in situations we normally wouldn\u2019t expect them to.\nIs that what your marriage is supposed to be? Is it supposed to be a survival competition? A race to see who falls first? Survival of the fittest?\nIf you were stranded on an island, you would look for ways to ensure you survive. If you have no money, food or home you need to do something so that you survive. That\u2019s when you yourself will find an answer to a \u201cHow to survive\u201d question.\nBut when it comes to a relationship that you are going to completely invest yourself in for a major portion of your life, surviving isn\u2019t good enough.\nWe need to learn how to thrive. How to blossom, how to grow and become better than the person we started out as.\nWe\u2019re never formally taught how to thrive in a relationship with another human-being. Nobody hands you a textbook and tells you to sign-up for a class that will provide you with a step-by-step guide on how to be an amazing spouse.\nThere are no infographics or flowcharts or tools that tell you precisely what to do and what to stay away from. No course from which you can graduate with a guarantee that you will know how to thrive in your marriage.\nSo how do we (generally) learn about love? Along the way we collect random pieces of information from friends, parents, colleagues, Facebook, motivational quotes and magazine articles. And who can blame us? We\u2019re just making the best of what we have at our disposal.\nI\u2019ve compiled some of this information from couples who\u2019ve attended marriage coaching sessions or participated in my annual marriage seminar, Nurturing Love.\nHere are 3 of the most common habits that suffocate the life out of a marriage. They ensure survival and deny both spouses any opportunity to thrive.\n1. The Resentment Cycle\nYour husband didn\u2019t take you to a family reunion 5 years ago because he was going fishing that weekend. Everybody was there except you. There\u2019s nothing you can do about it now but there\u2019s no reason why you should be the only one to suffer.\nSolution: Whenever he wants to make a trip to see someone in his family, make it as difficult as possible for him to go. Or, if you end up going, be as unsociable as possible. Complain about everything \u2013 the food, the weather, the timing. Make sure he knows that you remember how he didn\u2019t take you to the reunion.\nWhat this Habit Does\nSimply speaking, it makes you miserable. Every time your spouse does something that you don\u2019t like, you make a mental note of it so that you can justify your unreasonable behaviour somewhere in the future. \u201cRemember what you did? So don\u2019t tell me not to act like this.\u201d\nEventually, your spouse ends up doing the same thing. The cycle of resentment has been created. You may live together but you won\u2019t thrive.\nGet comfortable with the fact that when you marry someone, you\u2019re not marrying them because they will always do what you want them to. They\u2019re not your slave or servant. They\u2019re not going to magically start mirroring your likes and dislikes. And that\u2019s perfectly normal.\nThey will do infuriating / irritating / childish things that make you unhappy, disappointed and even sad. Unless these things become a regular habit, they\u2019re to be expected because occasionally that\u2019s how human-beings respond to everything happening around them.\nOnce you accept this, you won\u2019t see your spouse as a rival, but as a partner.\n2. The Habit of Blaming\nToo many spouses spend their lives evading responsibility and looking for new ways to pass the buck onto each other. Not only in marriage, but in almost every other sphere of our lives we\u2019ve become addicted to blaming others for situations we find ourselves in.\nMaybe we like to blame because it absolves us of any accountability?\nBlaming your husband / wife for the state of your marriage, finances, health etc. does nothing to improve your situation.It only increases the resentment in his / her heart. It\u2019s just another way to hurt your spouse. Another way to temporarily placate your ego and convince yourself that you are right and he / she is wrong. Maybe you\u2019re both wrong.\nDid you get married to be right all the time?\n3. Transplanting Emotions\nYou\u2019ve just been through your bank statement and your income isn\u2019t meeting your expenses all that well. You need to start spending less. Your debts are rising and you don\u2019t know how you\u2019re going to settle them. You mull over the matter at work, feel a general sense of heaviness because you\u2019re worried. You\u2019re not too interested in lunch because you\u2019re stressed.\nAt the end of the day, you go home and your wife says she wants to buy some new clothes. You get upset. Why does she waste so much money? Things are tough but all she\u2019s worried about is buying more things.\nSo you don\u2019t talk nicely to her. You shrug off her questions. You\u2019re upset with her because you didn\u2019t do anything about your emotions when you were at work, so you merely transplant those emotions into your home. You\u2019re intent on being upset so that she knows that she did something wrong. Or did she?\nToo often, we allow our egos to speak on our behalf. If we feel that we\u2019ve been treated badly we proceed to treat others badly.\nThe greatest tragedy perhaps is that the ones who love us the most are the ones we inadvertently treat the worst.",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb 516. Health and Disease\n516. Health and Disease\nHealth is very important for all, but no one thinks of it until he falls ill. When we are ill, we only think of getting rid of our illness, and do not so much consider restoring our health. It is a sovereign right of our being healthy and therefore it never constitutes a problem in our mind until we are forty or sixty. Nehru had to fill up his nomination form for election to the Lok Sabha. Coming to the column of profession, he exclaimed, \"Profession, what shall I say, shall I say Prime Minister?\" He knew as long as he was alive he would be the Prime Minister of this country. During his youth, when he returned from a public meeting, his family used to call him \"Bharat Ratna\". That was the origin of the highest award in India. How would Nehru have a goal of becoming the Prime Minister, as it is there without his asking. Health is such a prerogative to every man and therefore he never dwells on it.\nOne who is chronically ill or in old age dwells on health as it is a precious possession to him. Even when such people, by a fortunate turn of events, enter a state of health, they forget it. The doctor reads our temperature, blood pressure, sugar level, studies the symptoms of the disease we report and diagnoses it before prescription. The mother at home knows the health of her children by the ringing tone of voice, the shine of the skin, the sparkle in the eyes, the firmness of the step, by the cheerfulness they exude. It is certainly a better scale. A parent took his three-year old child to a doctor when she fell down from a running cycle. The doctor treated her bruises. The parent was waiting for the doctor to ask him to get an X-ray of the legs as the child was limping. The doctor put the child on the table, let her stand without support for a few minutes. The child cheerfully answered the doctor's questions. \u2018There is no fracture,' said the wise doctor.\nHealth is a greater measure in treating a disease then the partial symptoms by which young doctors rush a patient into surgery or treatment. The origin of health is highly laudable values, more than good nutritious food. Food is a physical part, one part of the four - mental, vital, physical, and spiritual. The values one upholds govern his whole being. Right values lead a man to avoid unhealthy food. Cows have a natural sense of eating. When they are wild, they avoid poisonous weeds. When domesticated, they believe the master so much that they eat poisonous grass the master feeds them. Health is a priceless possession not only in advanced age but at all stages of growth, and to be centred in the Spirit is the surest way of enjoying the greatest health.",

(CNS/Paul Haring)\nVATICAN CITY (CNS) -- Hidden among the paving stones of St. Peter's Square there is a simple clock and calendar. All you need is a sunny day.\nThe 83-foot stone obelisk in the middle of the square acts as a sundial that can accurately indicate midday and the two solstices thanks to a granite meridian and marble markers embedded in the square.\nPope Benedict XVI proudly pointed out the hidden timepiece during an Angelus address he gave on the winter solstice a few years ago.\n\"The great obelisk casts its shadow in a line that runs along the paving stones toward the fountain beneath this window and in these days, the shadow is at its longest of the year,\" he told pilgrims from the window of his library.\nIn fact, at noon on Dec. 21, the obelisk's shadow falls on the marble disk furthest from the obelisk's base, while at noon on June 21 -- the summer solstice -- the tip of the shadow will fall just a few yards from the obelisk. In between are five other disks marking when the sun enters into which sign of the zodiac.\nA long, thin granite strip running from the obelisk toward the pope's window and through one of the fountains acts as the meridian: a line that indicates when the sun has reached true or solar noon and is at its highest point in the sky.\nThe pope, in his solstice soliloquy, reminded people that the church has always been keenly interested in astronomy to help guide and establish fundamental liturgical days and the times of prayer such as the Angelus, which is recited in the morning, at noon and in the evening. While sunrise and sunset are easy to figure out, sundials could accurately tell midday, he said.\n(Click on the above link for the whole story - if you're a geek like me!)\nLabels: geek, sacred place",

        "raw_content": "Pohnpei Governor gives State of the State address\nPohnpei, FSM\u2014This morning, Pohnpei\u2019s Governor Marcelo Peterson presented his State of the State address to the Pohnpei State Legislature as required by law. It gave a thumbnail sketch of significant developments in the Agriculture, Education, Environment, Fisheries, Health, Infrastructure, Public, and Tourism Sectors.\nThe English language version of his speech was 10 pages of compact text that could not have been expected to have completely outlined all that is being developed in each sector. Still the framers of the Constitution were wise to have required at least an annual address from the Governor to keep the people apprised of efforts the government has been making to try enrich their lives.\nNearly every sentence of the speech contained information that if filled out, could fill a newspaper article, and there were developments that, due to the limitation of time, the speech simply could not contain. Also due to limited print space in this newspaper, even the short thumbnails will have to be further condensed.\nThe Governor spoke of the great assistance of China\u2019s Pilot Farm in Pohnlangas, Madolenihmw, greenhouse construction, biogas projects, the establishment of a mushroom demonstration farm, the importation of 2600 chicks, more than half of which perished due to climate and rodent predation, the State\u2019s Agriculture Strategic Action Plan, requests for agricultural equipment assistance, and a vegetables nursery for distribution of seedlings.\nThe Governor said the during the reporting period, 11,393 were enrolled from Early Childhood Education through High School for both public and private schools. Enrollment is declining. He attributed some of the decline to outmigration and some of it to school-aged children not being enrolled by their parents or guardians. On the latter, he intimated that there would be a crackdown to enforce truancy laws.\nHe said that significant efforts had been made to meet mandatory Accreditation Standards, and detailed some of the efforts to do so.\n$2.8 million of previously unallocated funds were received from the Office of Insular Affairs to meet a large number of needs to support education of Pohnpei\u2019s children.\nThe State spent $300,000 to purchase Language Arts, Mathematics, and Pohnpei Studies textbooks. Even with that expenditure, high school students are still sharing textbooks with up to four students sharing a single textbook.\nHe said the FSM accreditation standards have four levels with one being the lowest and four being the highest. Most Pohnpei schools are at level two or more, but 11 schools are still at level one.\nEnvironment Sector\nThe Governor spoke of Pohnpei watershed analysis and conservation projects and public education efforts. He said that a total of 6,233 tree seedlings were distributed to help control soil erosion and said that more seedlings are available.\nHe said that a total of 91 Environmental Impact Assessments were conducted for earth moving and dredging requests.\nHe said that an assessment of the barrier reef surrounding the main island of Pohnpei was completed and documented but did not give any details of that assessment.\nOn the recycling project, he said that aluminum cans were purchased from the public three times in 2017 with over 200 participants collecting and selling over 4 million cans that will be shipped to Busan, South Korea.\nHe spoke of mapping projects and land ownership determinations through the legal system.\nHe said that the Division of Historic Preservation under the Department of Land is continuing to register historic sites.\nHe said that assessments were completed for 25 marine protected areas but that the identification of endangered marine life species had not been completed. He said they must be completed immediately and that the delay had been caused by the new organizational structure of the departments.\nReseeding of trochus was completed in Pakin, Mwoakilloa, and Pingelap.\nFive fish aggregating devices have been built and are waiting deployment.\nOut of the 35 markets surveyed by the Office of Fisheries and Aquaculture (OFA), 19 are not complying with reporting requirements. To ensure full compliance, all municipal governments are urged to enact ordinances that would require certification from OFA before business license is granted to any fish market, he said.\nThe Secretariat of the Pacific Community and OFA have recommended a harvest of 10 metric tons of trochus after their collaborative assessment.\nA $10,000 donation from Congress made it possible for Pohnpei to reseed clams on Pohnpei\u2019s reefs.\nServices for people with disabilities should be enhanced after the merging of the Department of Health and the Office of Social Affairs according the Governor\u2019s address to the Legislature.\nHe said that a proposed health care plan for all legal residents of Pohnpei is currently in development. No details on that plan were provided during his speech.\nHe spoke of a Dispensary Strengthening Program that has begun as a cooperative effort between the FSM Department of Health and the World Health Organization. He said that the initiative will be extended to all municipalities in Pohnpei.\nHe said that 400 cases of Rheumatic Heart Disease were uncovered through a screening program of elementary school students. Most of them were treatable but funding is still needed for further screening.\nHe spoke of the establishment of super dispensaries for U, Madolenihmw, Kitti and all outer islands in Pohnpei. Also to be constructed is a facility where mental health patients can be treated and accommodated.\nOIA approved $6.8 million for diagnostic space and equipment, an intensive care unit, and for \u201celectrical improvement and efficiency\u201d.\nHe spoke of financial assistance from the Leo Etscheit Foundation for a Telemedicine Program.\nThe Governor said that all 12 projects under the Pohnpei Infrastructure Development Plan were transferred from the FSM Project Management Unit to the Pohnpei Project Management Office in February, 2017 but that the implementation of the projects is pending required processes at the FSM PMU.\nA $6.3 million dollar project to extend the waterline from the COM-FSM to Diadi community in Kitti has already been awarded to contractors. Contractors have also already been selected for the design of the PICS High School Math and Science Building.\nSeveral school renovations were completed by High School students along with their instructors.\nThe US government has provided funding for the renovation of the State prison.\nPohnpei Utilities Corporation has received a number of grants to improve power generation capabilities and renewable energy resources.\nTopics under this sector dealt mainly with law enforcement efforts. He spoke of the establishment of a White Collar Crime Unit, reviews of State rules and regulations, the establishment of a Human Trafficking Task Force, a creation of a new misdemeanor citation form to ease the burden on courts.\nHe said that the establishment of a new Division of Fire and Emergency Services led to response plans pertaining to climate change, emergency response, 911 telephone system, and purchase of boats, fire trucks and emergency response tools.\nHe spoke of a new voter registry system and new residences funded or renovated through the Pohnpei Housing Authority.\n\u201cAs of September 30, 2017, our financial records indicate that the State of Pohnpei has an unspent balance of over $2.2M. Of this amount, $984,910 was from the General Fund.\n\u201cWe received $1,286,857 from our shares with Caroline Fisheries Corporation. We have $4,396,541 from our share with Wilshire Solutions Trust. From our account with the Bank of Hawaii we have $176,260. Pohnpei\u2019s share as appropriated by Congress to be used after 2023 was at $9,221,086 or 20% of revenue collected by the National Government during this reporting period. Pohnpei\u2019s collateral fund under the Early Retirement Program was $4,246,466 at market value. Pohnpei\u2019s share with the FSM Trust Fund during this reporting period was at $14,121,424. The aluminum can recycling program brought in revenue of $451,344 and purchased aluminum cans from the pubic in the value of $299,337.\n\u201cAccording to our unaudited financial records for fiscal year 2017, the expenses of the Government were at $33,539,060:\nCompact funds was at $18,611,582\nFederal Grants for Education was at $1,059,015\nFederal Grants for Health was at $1,016,570\nGeneral fund was at $10,365,388\nAssistance from other countries besides the U.S. was at $275,594\nAssistance from the FSM Congress was at $1,449,162\nOther assistance such as funding for the Community Health Centers at $716,446; U.S. Department of Agriculture at $25,745; technical assistance for the Auditor\u2019s Office was at $19,558.\u201d\nThe Governor wasn\u2019t able to cover all of the developments in the tourism sector. He said that with the addition of new hotels, Pohnpei currently has 217 rooms available. Others are being developed.\nPohnpei had six registered tour operators during the reporting period.\nThe Lididuhniap Waterfall is now open to the public. The Kepirohi Waterfall restorations are nearing completion. The Sokehs Ridge project and Nan Madol projects are still undergoing improvement, he said.\n\u201cOur fisheries, tourism and agriculture sectors are the areas where we need to fully implement to significantly move the state forward. These plans are based on our Strategic Development Plan. The first plan is a fish processing plant that is currently under planning and will create at least 500 jobs initially. Second is the settlement of the case between Pohnpei State and Luen Thai Fishing Ventures. The settlement will enable the fish processing plant and the cold storage facility at Luen Thai to resume operations therefore creating another 200 jobs. Third, Pohnpei is partnering with two companies to develop tuna fisheries farming in Pohnpei as another opportunity to create more jobs. Fourth is another company that is interested in establishing a 5-star or 4-star hotel operation in Pohnpei and will be adding an additional 200 rooms. Finally, the Government of Pohnpei is currently working with the FAO over food security opportunities involving local farmers. These major directions need the support of the leadership of Pohnpei since these projects will be established all over Pohnpei.\n\u201cPohnpei shares similar issues and concerns with other developing peoples. The world is changing over time and eras. We need to renew our way of thinking if we truly desire for a genuine development for us now and into the future. A truly lived spirit of solidarity is the way for us forward.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Review: Bess & Frima by Alice Rosenthal\nBess & Frima\nby Alice Rosenthal\nGoodreads: When Bess and Frima\u2014best friends, both nineteen and from the same Jewish background in the Bronx\u2014get summer jobs in upstate hotels near Monticello, NY, in June 1940, they have visions of romance . . . but very different expectations and needs. Frima, who seeks safety in love, finds it with the \u201cboy next door,\u201d who is also Bess\u2019s brother. Meanwhile, rebellious Bess renames herself Beth and plunges into a new life with Vinny, an Italian American, former Catholic, left-wing labor leader from San Francisco. Her actions are totally unacceptable to her family\u2014which is fine with Beth. Will their young loves have happy endings? Yes and no, for the shadow of world war is growing, and Beth and Frima must grow up fast. As their love lives entangle with war, ambitions, religion, family, and politics\u2014all kinds of conventional expectations\u2014they face challenges they never dreamed of in their struggles for personal and creative growth.\nKritters Thoughts: Bess and Frima are best friends. They are both Jewish and both get jobs in upstate NY at hotels for a summer. This is where there differences will begin and their stories will part. One went to a hotel that is owned by her family and since she is under her family's roof will have the tame summer while the other is out on her own and will have quite a few experiences which will shape her for the rest of her life.\nI liked both stories and it was interesting to watch each girl go in different directions. Their stories were most interesting in contrast to each other. When Bess went left, I was intrigued to see what Frima would do and how her life would go. The book was entertaining because you could pit one against the other and wonder who was having \"the better life.\"\nI wanted to change the formatting or something about the book. I enjoyed that it jumped in time to keep the story going, but there were a few times where I wish the chapter was labeled with a month and/or year. I think more could have been done to allow for the reader to easily make the jumps with the characters.\nI have read quite a many historical fiction books, so my standards may be raised and this one was just ok for me. At times it felt as though a few extra words were used to describe something and I was ready to get to the action. Descriptors can be nice, but when they overtake a story it seems bogged down by it all.\nI say all of this and the book was good. There were a few things that I would change, but it was an interesting look at a community at a time where maybe we don't always look at this community in the United States and how they were surviving here and maybe we always read about them abroad.",

        "raw_content": "Knitted music\nKnitted music is a two-day collaboration project with H\u00f6gskolan i Bor\u00e5s, with their PhD-students, led by Marjan Korooshnia.\nI lead the process of developing a program which can be used to analyse music, and create consistent patterns suitable for circular knitting. The team members were PhD students with a wide variety of professions: an architect, a graphic designer, and a musician. They were all professionals with work experience, and thus the process went smoothly.\nI was responsible for the overall coding, and at the beginning of the task I divided the team to different focus areas. We kept a quick pace of development with roughly an hour of thinking, and half-hour discussion followed by quick implementation and testing. This cycle was done a few times each day, resulting with a program that analysed the notes, durations and structure of the music, and created randomly placed but shape-wise consistent patterns.\nThe first part of the process focused on getting the basic implementation to work: from sound \u2013 picture for knit file generation \u2013 knitting. The first version result can be seen in the circular knitting picture, where the fabric is being knitted with an industrial machine. Using this, the team focused on their strenghts: having music background myself, me and the musician focused on the markers in the music, and how they would be interpreted. The graphic designer and the architect focused on the representation, having discussed with the technicians on what kind of colour representation was possible. After initial brainstorming, we shared our thoughts and decided on the initial patterns and how they would be generated from the markers. We then iteratively developed the program, ending up with something that allows the creation of consistent and knittable patterns from any music.\nThe software interface is shown left, there are several options to verify the behaviour, and to e.g. select colours and patterns used. Histogram and example pools created with Red Hot Chili Peppers-By the Way are shown.\nFrom the results it was possible to discern which music was the source, however one could not reproduce the music \u2013 it was an interpretation. For example, with Bach one would get clear solid patterns, and with the song Sly from Massive Attack, one would get quite chaotic structure with a few solid patterns, as the signer has longer continuous vocalisations. In the picture below, with the yellow background, pattern above is from Massive Attack and pattern below is Bach.",

        "raw_content": "February Newsletter \u2013 PDF\nA new year, a new record\nThe Milton real estate market is off to the hottest start we\u2019ve seen yet. A severe lack of inventory and a large supply of buyers have pushed prices to record levels, an unusual thing to see in the middle of winter. The 109 residential sales in January 2017 represent a 4.6% decrease over the same figure for January 2016. The average price on the other hand was a staggering $689,800, up more than 120k (or 21.2%) from the average of January 2016. This is the highest level ever seen in Milton, and is due in part to extremely low inventory levels.\nOnce again sellers appear to be waiting until the spring market to put their homes up for sale. Buyers on the other hand have not slowed down whatsoever, many having been searching for quite some time. The average sale price of a freehold Milton home in January was a mind boggling 106.4% of asking price, with 81% of homes selling over their asking price.\nAnother reason for the increase are the prices released by builders in early January. Many people viewed these initial price offerings as absurd, and yet still Mattamy sold out in a matter of hours, and then once again a week later at prices which were on average 20-30k higher. It will be interesting to see where this year takes us, but if the rest of the year is anything like January, we may be seeing a repeat of 2016.",

        "raw_content": "I recently watched the movie \"The Namesake\" over again, and remembered how much I love this film and another one by Mira Nair, \"Monsoon Wedding.\" I have not seen any of her other directorial efforts, (including 2009's New York, I Love You), so I can't speak to them, but these two movies are beautifully told stories.\n\"Monsoon Wedding\" is set mostly in India, while \"The Namesake\" is set in New York. However, the firmest prop in both films is the airport joining India to the U.S., and this strange meeting of cultures. Both stories are intimate, carefully drawn portraits of family and community and the tenuous connections that bind together despite the distance to the other side of world. Barriers of culture, language, generation, caste, and physical distance fragment the families in both stories, but in spite of these walls, somehow the heroes of these stories must always return to the family in order to make sense of their lives. These themes of heritage, separation, journey and return drive these two narratives, and are emphasized with lovely, meditative cinematography that seems to reveal a precariousness of loneliness within community.\nThe other thing that strikes so deeply about these stories are the strong and beautiful father figures, a characterization so rarely found in Western film. Both Irffan Kahn (of Slumdog Millionaire) as Ashoke Ganguli in \"The Namesake\" and Naseeruddin Shah as Lalit Verma in \"Monsoon Wedding\" are sacrificial, loving, and respected, even heroic father characters. This characterization is deeply touching, all the more because of its rarity.",

        "raw_content": "Error Log Explained\nSometimes the Liberty BASIC compiler finds a problem with your code, and it will stop and give you an error message of some kind. Usually this will appear on the status line at the bottom of the Liberty BASIC editor window. At other times you may see a popup error notice when running a program that you've written. There are a variety of programmer errors which can give rise to such error messages. For example, perhaps a program tries to divide a number by zero (which is mathematically impossible to do), or maybe a program closes a file, and then tries to close it again (it isn't possible to close a file that isn't open). These kinds of programmer bugs result in a popup error message.\nHowever, sometimes you will get a popup error notice that mentions the ERROR.LOG file. This means that you have stumbled across a nastier sort of bug in Liberty BASIC itself, and Liberty BASIC has written something about that bug in the ERROR.LOG file.\nWhat should you do with the information in the ERROR.LOG file? Some people have contacted us more than a little confused after looking at the contents of the this file. Don't worry. This information is much more useful to us, since it contains details about the internals of Liberty BASIC. We have a pretty good idea what it means. If you are so inclined, you can send it to us and we'll take a look at it and try to help you with the bug, and also use the information to fix bugs in new releases of Liberty BASIC.\nTo do this, send email to support@libertybasic.com and explain in as much detail as you can how the error happened. If you aren't sure how it happened, see if you can make the error happen again. It can be very hard, or nearly impossible to fix bugs when they cannot be recreated. Sometimes it helps us to figure out the cause of the error when we have access to the source code and other files that you were using when the error happened. If you can, please provide us with these things so that we can serve you best. We realize of course that sometimes you may not want to share your code and files for privacy reasons or because your company policy may forbid it, and this is perfectly understandable.\nNow that you have a better understanding of what ERROR.LOG is and how to make use of it, you will be able to help us improve the quality of the Liberty BASIC programming language!",

        "title": "Improving Your General Health",
        "raw_content": "Home > Lifestyle & Wellbeing > Improving Your General Health\nThroughout the articles on this website you will have read about various tips and techniques to help you with various issues and difficulties and also how this all relates to your feeling of well-being and, intrinsically, your good health both physically and psychologically.\nThis particular article is a basic round up of all the small but significant things you can do to improve your health in general terms.\nAdopt a Healthy Eating Mentality\nWithout a shadow of a doubt, a tendency to be overweight and to eat the wrong foods at the wrong times does not only affect our physical health but that often goes hand in hand with our psychological mood too. If both your physical and emotional sides are not working in harmony, it can have a catastrophic effect on your quality of life in general and often how you perceive the world and others within it, so it\u2019s important that you eat the right kinds of foods. The healthy kinds of carbohydrates, fresh fish and natural, low fat proteins, such as chicken and fruit and vegetables are recommended as part of a balanced diet and you should also drink plenty of water each day.\nExercise is intrinsically linked to diet when it comes to you feeling good about yourself and feeling healthy generally and, in spite of all those who might tell you otherwise, the two go hand in hand, no disputing that, and regular exercise combined with a healthy eating plan will not only make you healthier but you\u2019ll feel better about yourself too. You don\u2019t have to be continually running on the treadmill or pumping iron however. A brisk 30 minute walk counts as exercise. However, the more effort and sweat you put into it, the more you\u2019ll ultimately get out of it.\nWe all live in a 24/7 world of shopping, work, entertainment, family commitments and communication and to all of us, it often feels like there are simply not enough hours in the day to do everything we\u2019re expected to do. Consequently, something has to give and usually it\u2019s the amount of sleep we allow ourselves to have. However, if we don\u2019t get enough sleep (the recommended amount being somewhere in the region of 7 to 9 hours each day), it can make us feel tired, irritable, unable to function both physically and mentally and can lead to a whole host of problems both health related and otherwise, so if you want to improve your health in general, you must prioritise sleep over all of your other commitments some of which can often be put off until another day.\nMany people have found that getting out into some quiet rural landscape or near to the coast or a nearby river or stream and just sitting quietly in reflection and gently absorbing the sights, sounds and smells of the natural environment surrounding them can have amazing positive benefits on their general health. Try it and see. Even if you live in the city, there must be a relatively quiet park you can head out to for a bit of peace and solitude. It can be a great reliever of stress and can act as a human \u2018battery recharger\u2019.\nSlow Down and Take Your Time\nWho said that computers and technology would make life easier for us? Who said that we\u2019d have more leisure time in the 21st century and more time to relax? Sometimes, it feels as though we live both our personal and professional lives at breakneck speeds in order to cram in all that we have to and the additional stuff we want to.\nHowever, your general health can suffer as a result with more stress and more worry etc. It\u2019s all about striking a balance and sometimes simply letting things wash over you and taking a bit of time to \u201cstop and smell the roses\u201d ,i.e. just sometimes simply enjoy \u2018being\u2019 as opposed to \u2018doing\u2019. Life is not a race against time and you should make some time to just \u2018be you\u2019 as opposed to constantly feeling you should always be doing something productive with your time. Simply allowing yourself to just \u2018be\u2019 occasionally is just as productive, if not more so, to your general health.\nDon\u2019t Neglect the Grey Matter\nRemember that your brain needs exercising as well as your body so keep it stimulated through reading books, through things such as crosswords and other mental challenges, by pursuing or taking up a hobby or pastime and by engaging in interesting social conversation and\u2026.on that note\u2026..\nHaving a good and varied social network of positive and interesting friends to hang out with now and again is important to keep your perspective on yourself and the world around you a healthy one.\nBy adopting a healthy attitude to all of the above, and running all aspects of your life in moderation, you should find that your general health improves significantly as a result.",

        "raw_content": "When you want a package delivered on time to the right place, not just any courier service in West Grove, California will do. The service has to be reliable, fast, and affordable. That is why you should turn to Lightning Messenger Express for all of your delivery needs. Read on to find out more about all that we have to offer in business and residential services.\nOur on time messenger service in West Grove, California is priced at rates that are affordable and fair, which is different than other coureier services in West Grove, California. Many of them charge customers way too much for deliveries that are only a short distance away. And they don't even offer half of the services that we do for the same price. This causes customers to have to pick and choose what packages that they want to have delivered, since they simply can't afford to send them all at once. At Lightning Messenger in West Grove, California, we believe that by keeping our prices in a reasonable range, our customers will be able to use our affordable courier service as often as they need to. This is especially important for our business customers who have a large volume of packages to ship out on a regular basis.\nA good on time messenger service in West Grove, California should operate so smoothly and efficiently that no customer has to even think about what is going to happen to their package after they hand it over to be delivered. But many coureier services in West Grove, California don't work that way. Customers end up waiting in a long line for a ridiculous amount of time just to have a customer service representative be rude and mean to them. Our services at Lightning Express will put you at ease though. We will pick up your packages for you, so you don't even have to leave your home or office. And everything can be arranged online or over the phone. Just let us know when you are ready for the packages to be picked up, make your payment through our easy online system, and you're ready to go!\nLightning Express in West Grove, California has become incredibly popular because of the way that we treat our packages. You won't find any of our staff throwing or slamming them around, and they won't arrive ripped or torn up. So there is no need to worry about your packages showing up in an embarrassing, disheveled mess. Each one will be delivered in the same condition that you gave it to us in. However, we do handle a large volume of packages though. So just as a preventative measure, our deliveries are all insured. That way, if any damage is accidentally caused to a package due to conditions that we can't control, the contents inside will be covered. This helps to give our customers peace of mind in knowing that they can truly trust us to take care of their valuable items.\nThere are many times that our customers have come to us to say that they need their package to arrive at its destination as fast as possible because it contains time-sensitive contents. That is why we offer one-day service options. These packages get prioritized to the top of the shipping list, so they will always get there in time. This doesn't mean that our other packages will be disregarded though. Each one is set on a particular delivery schedule that is arranged in the most efficient way possible. Some people might wonder how we are able to do all of this though. Well, it's simple. We never close down like other courier companies do. Lightning Messenger Express in West Grove, California operates around the clock all through the year. We haven't taken a day off yet, and we never will. This ensures that our customers get their packages delivered when we say that they will be there, not three days late because it happened to be a holiday.\nSometimes, Lightning Messenger in West Grove, California gets business customers who need to store and ship out a large number of packages on a regular basis. So we have come up with some special shipping solutions just for them. We can pick up all of the packages of products that they have, store them in one of our local warehouses, and ship them out to wherever they need to go. This makes the distribution of their products much easier and more efficient because Messenger Express takes care of all of the inventory tracking of the packages for them. Businesses that want to learn more about this service can give us a call. We can even arrange for them to get a free quote.\nAt Messenger Express in West Grove, California, we don't forget about our residential customers just because they often ship a smaller amount of packages than businesses do. We ship packages from one residential area to another and from residential areas to businesses too. And no package is too small to have us deliver it. To encourage more residential customers to use Lightning Express courier service, we offer a special discount to all of them when they try out our services for the first time.",

We have a nice selection of beautiful stone litho images on original posters from cinema's earliest days. We also have examples from silents made after the coming of sound. Most film fans will think of Chaplin's City Lights and Modern Times. Made in the thirties, but without talking. But who remembers another latter day silent movie?

In the third minute, Dimitrov laid a perfect cross for Vito Plut to head home for Birkirkara\u2019s opener.

        "raw_content": "So many people hesitate to talk about life insurance because, well . . . it's not a fun conversation. But everything dies - it's part of life. And it can happen at any time - in an accident, the result of an unexpected illness or of natural causes. You work so very hard to provide for your loved ones during your life - it's equally important to provide financial support for them when you're gone.\nDebt can be a tremendous burden, on top of the already emotional toll your absence creates in their lives. Did you know that costs for a modest funeral service average $11,000?1 At an already difficult and emotional time, your life insurance provides a death benefit that may help cover these expenses and other financial responsibilities that are left after your death.\nLife insurance provides a death benefit that may help protect your business from financial loss, liabilities or instability in the case of the death of a business owner or partner. By providing funds to allow you to continue operations or just having cash on hand for unanticipated expenses, life insurance can be invaluable in maintaining the business you've worked so hard to build.\nDid you know you can use life insurance to leave a lasting gift to a favorite cause or charity? With our gifting strategies, it can be a much larger gift than you would otherwise set aside for donation.\nWhen you sit down with us, know that we have your best interests in mind. This conversation is all about how to protect those you care about most: your family, your business, your legacy. You will provide for your loved ones' future living costs, whatever they may be: debt, housing, college or retirement. Once you get it, you'll feel more confident knowing that you'll make things easier for them. After all, they will have to go on without you.

        "raw_content": "Indoor Air Quality in the Twin Cities\nMost people understand the impact that outdoor air can have on their health. From urban smog to spring allergies, poor outdoor air can make you miserable. However, many people underestimate the importance of indoor air in promoting good health. According to the EPA, poor indoor air quality can be even more damaging to your health. In fact, the agency estimates that in certain situations, air pollutant levels can be up to 100 times greater indoors. Poor indoor air quality can trigger or contribute to a wide variety of different respiratory illnesses, such as Legionnaires\u2019 disease and asthma. Even when it doesn\u2019t cause a specific disease, poor air quality can cause a number of irritating symptoms that will decrease the quality of your life, such as sneezing, coughing, fatigue, congestion, headaches and dizziness.\nPoor Air Quality in the Twin Cities\nPoor air quality affects thousands of Twin Cities residents and can be caused by a number of different factors. Your heating system is a major source of indoor air pollution, especially if your furnace is gas or wood-powered. Combustion byproducts, such as soot or carbon monoxide, can build up in your home over time, especially if your air filters are clogged. Outdoor pollutants can also accumulate within your home. Modern, energy-efficient homes are designed to be tightly insulated against the outside world. Although this can help you save on your heating and cooling bills, it also means that pollutants have a difficult time escaping from your home. Without a robust air purification system, these pollutants can build up to unhealthy levels. Additionally, bacteria can live within your ventilation ducts. If your ventilation system doesn\u2019t include adequate air cleaners, bacterial spores can migrate from your ducts into the air that you breathe every day.\nThe Best Air Purification for Your Home or Business\nEquipping your home\u2019s heating and ventilation system with the right air purifiers and air filters can help reduce indoor air pollution. A complete air purification system will work with your ventilation system to provide you with clean and comfortable air. At Marsh Heating, we can help you choose the right air purifiers, air filters and air cleaners to improve your indoor air quality. With our professional installation, you\u2019ll be breathing clean, comfortable air in no time.\nPlease view our line of Lennox indoor air quality products below.

        "raw_content": "A culture based on techniques and concepts that make life better\nThe DeRose Method is a high performance lifestyle emphasizing quality of life, good manners, good human relations, good nutrition, fitness and culture. Some of the tools we use are respiratory re-education, stress manage- ment, organic body techniques that improve muscle tone and flexibility, and procedures that enhance emotional relaxation and mental concentration. All of this, ultimately, aims to expand consciousness and self-awareness.\nThe Method as a tool to change the world\nTable designed by Instr. Vernon Maraschin and developed by Instr. Alexandre Montagna.\nThe techniques enhance the individual, while the concepts provide the means to change the world. The shock waves are produced when setting an example, such as with good habits, and these habits influence, first, the family circle; later, the circle of friends and peers at work, school, and in sports; lastly, the circle of people with whom we casually cross paths with in day-to-day life, including clients, suppliers and strangers.\nThe techniques by themselves only improve those who chose to formally practice and use the Method's exercises. But the practitioners, when they incorporate the concepts, have the potential to influence the environment around them. Their family and friends eventually end up practicing our Culture without realizing it. It's the husband or wife, son or daughter, father or mother, brother or sister who think they haven\u2019t applied the Method \"yet\" because they haven't signed-up, nevertheless, they absorbed a lifestyle, a modus vivendi, adopted habits, attitudes, and behaviors that are the core of our Method.\nFor each person that formally practices the Method, we can find up to ten that practice without realizing it. This is best explained by Instr. Jamile Martins, daughter of veteran instructor Concei\u00e7\u00e3o Martins:\n\"This is the most precious gift passed on to me by my mother, which I later passed on to my husband, my mother in-law, my friends and students and now my daughter.\"\n\"The techniques enhance the individual, while the concepts provide the means to change the world.\" (Prof. DeRose)",

        "raw_content": "\ue643 23 Apr 2018 By Leonel Ruiz\nOn a cloudy and sometimes rainy Saturday afternoon, the Tridents made history by winning their third straight Florida Rugby Championship.\nThe path to the Championship this season was not an easy one. When pool play started in January, the Tridents were missing multiple players who had helped them win State titles the past two seasons. They also had a new head coach, former Trident fullback, Ranald Schulz. Some might have expected a rebuilding year with a focus on the future. The Tridents did not see it that way. After starting the season with 5 victories, the Tridents sustained three losses in a row. They would finish with a record of 6-3 and as the 3rd seeded team in the state. Their reward was a long road trip to 2nd seeded Tampa Krewe, a team who had lost only one game. After narrowly winning 12-7, the Tridents advanced to the State Finals. Their opponent was a team that had earlier defeated them 33-31, Boca Raton RFC. More importantly, the Tridents lost their captain Hein Erasmus to injury in the closing minutes of that match.\nThe State Finals did not start well for the Tridents, with Boca Raton scoring a try in the 4th minute. The Tridents then ripped off 27 unanswered points. They never relinquished the lead. Late season addition, Joshua Durbach played an outstanding game at scrumhalf, making sure every player was involved in wave after wave of unrelenting attack. After the game, he would credit the forwards for being the key to victory. Boca Raton came back in the 2nd half to score 12 more points, but it was a case of too little, too late. The MVP of the match award went to Connor Christie for a sterling performance at fullback.\nThe next step is the Southern Conference Championships in Southern Pines, NC on May 5-6th.\nThe Trident RFC would like to take this opportunity to thank the hard work of all of our players, 1st and 2nd XV's. Without them, we would not be State Champions for a third year in a row. We would also like to thank the Club Officers, the Game Day Committee, and our Team Manager, Mad Dog. Without them, the Club would not run so smoothly and efficiently. Many thanks as well to our sponsors, Atlas Club for their financial support and Fado Irish Pub for putting on the best rugby socials in the State. Finally a huge thank you goes out to all of our supporters and old boys. Every time we travel, whether it's Naples, Orlando, or Jacksonville, we can always count on their presence and cheers from the sidelines.\nUpdated 18:05 - 23 Apr 2018 by Leonel Ruiz\n\ue904 The 2018-2019 Rugby Season Begins New coaches, Division names, and a Tour to the Bahamas.

        "raw_content": "How Nature Can Give Your Life Purpose\nWhat Everybody Ought to Know About Giving\nThus far, we\u2019ve been evolving through the power of reception. That force has been pushing us forward and developing in us, a desire to receive for ourselves; a desire to acquire, understand, know, and dominate; also, a desire to envy other people, meaning to want what others have for ourselves.\nHowever, now we must balance our force of reception with the other force that exists in Nature: the force of bestowal. Constantly being under the domination of the force of reception\u2014the harmful and detrimental force\u2014creates imbalance in Nature, in the environment, in man, and in human society.\nFor this reason, we must acquire the power of bestowal, the power of giving and participating. The force of bestowal can develop into the greatest power of love. Man can develop that power only through free choice, by designing an environment that will constantly give him an example by which he will change. Knowing the force of bestowal and its benefits will help all of us understand our lives, and reality in general, far beyond our current knowledge.\nAfter developing for thousands of years, and especially in the last fifty or sixty years, we are beginning to see the end of our egoistic development. We are beginning to see that it\u2019s impossible to advance having one desire that is aimed to receive, to acquire, to draw abundance to ourselves while being inconsiderate of others and of Nature. Additional desires are now appearing in us: We want to understand more, feel more, to \u201cpenetrate\u201d our world. Our powers of reception aren\u2019t enough; they\u2019re ruining us and the environment; they\u2019re ruining the whole of Nature around us.\nThis is why our awareness of the other force we\u2019re missing\u2014the power of giving\u2014is now awakening in us. In truth, this is the force that\u2019s actually running the world. The power of giving is the great force of \u201cMother Nature\u201d from which all evolution stems, because everything happens by the power of giving, by the force of bestowal. Like parents toward their children, Nature tends to us. However much we enjoy Nature\u2014because we receive everything from it\u2014nonetheless, we are not like it at all.\nThe Key to Hastening Your Development Is Giving\nIf we consider the essence of our lives; the process we are going through while evolving; and the purpose we should reach, we will see that every development in Nature is the result of Nature\u2019s purpose. If we wish to know the purpose, we need to know Nature. We need to study and to understand the forces acting in it, and then we can understand what is happening to us and contemplate how to further develop, in harmony with Nature, toward a truly good and peaceful life.\nIf we begin to think in this way, we will see how all of Nature operates using two forces: the giving force and the receiving force. The giving force is the force of bestowal; of consideration; bonding; and ultimately, the general power of love.\nThe power of love includes all the positive forces in all the degrees of Nature: the still, vegetative, animate, and speaking degrees. These are the forces that give life and good influence, that pull us toward bonding and sustaining. We evolve specifically through these positive forces.\nIf we examine our body\u2014or anything else in the universe, we will see the governance of two forces everywhere; we will see the force of giving and the force of reception acting in all of reality. From the time of the initial formation of the universe, these two forces have connected, creating a form that is neither one nor the other. This is how matter was formed. The forces of bestowal and reception evolved together, creating negative and positive particles, electrons and protons, which although opposite, together created the atom. The atoms connected into bigger blocs, forming crystals, which are forms of matter at the still degree.\nThough this combination of forces happens in the vegetative and in the still degrees, it\u2019s harder for us to discern it. Whereas in animals, we see this more clearly; we see how a living organism forms out of the energy that exists in the embryonic cell. The cell absorbs materials from the outside, and the living body is created by absorbing, emitting, and combining those materials according to pieces of information within which are data that is in conflict between the two forces.\nSo it goes for all the degrees in nature: the inanimate, vegetative, and animate nature; that is, everything develops through combinations of the two forces. We can see in Nature a gradual, instinctive development according to a predetermined plan embedded within every being. Every being evolves according to those embedded laws and also according to the environment. Further, as the environment changes, evolution changes. In the end, and primarily on the human level, we see that the giving, supporting, and providing force of Nature is more concealed, deeper; while, the receiving force is the force of Nature that develops in a more conspicuous and more evident manner.\nThe more one receives, the more one grows. Man, who\u2019s been evolving for hundreds of thousands of years, goes through the same evolution as animals. However, if we examine the state we find ourselves in today, it seems that our evolution at the animate level has come to an end. It seems that we are shifting toward a different mode.\nWe\u2019ve exhausted all the receiving force within us and come to a state where we cannot develop through it any longer. We\u2019ve begun to really see our need for the giving force in Nature, which is appearing now on the part of the general bestowal, on the part of giving, and even on the part of love.\nHow the Power of Giving Trumps the Power of Receiving\nThrough our study of Nature, we are discovering that Nature is round, global, and integral, as though enveloping us in a sphere. Accordingly, we feel that we are opposite from Nature, that we must somehow use all the treasures given to us in a manner that is in balance with it. And yet, we can\u2019t because the force of bestowal is absent in our behavior, in our development, and in our knowledge.\nHow is it possible, then, to acquire knowledge about this power?\nDuring our development up until now, we\u2019ve always used the power of reception\u2014a separating force. We\u2019ve compared ourselves to others, desiring to be superior to others, more successful, and above others. Whereas previously, we\u2019ve worked successfully with this power of reception, now we must improve ourselves and acquire the other force, the power of bestowal and giving. We must learn how to work with the power of bestowal\u2014more specifically, how to combine those two forces together.\nWe are currently in a special situation that enables us to receive information about the other force, the force of bestowal, and learn what we can acquire through it. We can find examples for this other, giving, force even in our egoistic world, which is built around the force of reception.\nThe force of reception at the still, vegetative, and animate levels is an instinctive force by which one consumes the other. In Man, that force exists excessively; therefore, Man wants to receive and use the entire world for his delight, not taking anyone else into consideration. But even so, within our environment and within our society, there are examples of the two opposite forces: there is \u201cme\u201d and \u201cthe other\u201d; \u201cme\u201d and the \u201cenvironment\u201d; \u201cme\u201d and \u201chumanity.\u201d\nThrough relations between me and others, through others\u2019 impact on me, I will be able to organize an environment and study the force of bestowal, to study the power of bonding and the power of giving versus the power of receiving. Thus, if we properly arrange psychology as a science that researches man\u2019s relations with the human environment, we will be able to start receiving clear data and information about the power of bestowal and will be able to study it atop the power of reception that we\u2019ve acquired thus far. We will be able to learn to what extent we oppose the environment. If it is a good environment that favors advancement, it will show us what the force of bestowal is like.\nThrough the same qualities of envy, lust, and honor, the environment begins to affect us; we begin to feel that we have no choice but to adapt ourselves to it. Only in this way will we gain respect and appreciation, rather than disgrace and expulsion. This leaves us\u2014egoistic by nature\u2014only one choice: to position ourselves in a respectable manner in relation to the environment so as to feel great and respected.\nFinding That Balance and Perfection\nIf our environment is managed by proper educators, it can teach each of us how to truly feel the force of bestowal. We will begin to see how special this force is.\nIn this way, we will consider our environment as stages in our education. The environment will be to us as parents toward a baby. We will be influenced by it as if by loving and caring parents who provide us with abundance and understand all our wants and weaknesses.\nThus, gradually, through small influences by a considerate and merciful environment, we will grow and become as youths, although we\u2019re actually adults. Each of us will go through these stages of development, first like a baby, then like a child, and then like a youth.\nAfterwards, when we have grown enough, we will understand that the force of bestowal can work in our favor, that through this force we can give to the environment. We will become equal members in that environment, treating each other in a balanced manner; that is, the force of reception and the force of bestowal will become balanced between us. Thus, gradually, such environments will develop.\nAdditionally, we will acquire the power of bestowal. To the extent that we acquire this power, we will begin to relate to Nature as a \u201cmother\u201d to us. We will grow towards the environment, by this power of bestowal that we gradually acquire, first like that of a bestowing baby, then like a bestowing child, a bestowing youth, and finally, to like a bestowing grownup. Here, we are beginning to be like Nature, feeling the inner forces that exist within it, the forces behind matter.\nAs we study these forces with our intellect, we will begin to acquire the inner wisdom that operates the whole of Nature.\nIn other words, by acquiring these two forces of bestowal and reception so they are balanced in us, we come to know Nature, the Mother, the operating force that creates life, the force that leads life toward its purpose. It is then that we can also discover Nature\u2019s purpose and gain a better understanding of our lives and where we are in relation to Nature. Everything becomes transparent; we penetrate all that is happening around and within us; and begin to see everything as combinations of the forces.\nThis is the knowledge we acquire. We don\u2019t acquire it superficially, as we previously acquired knowledge when we used only the force of reception. Rather, the combination of the two forces and the qualities we acquire grant us inner tools. These are not like the external tools that physicists, chemists, and other scientists use with their research instruments. Instead, we begin to feel the whole of Nature within us, and ourselves as an integral part of it.\nIn this way, we begin to see, live, and integrate with this entire process. We also don\u2019t feel ourselves at the level of the solid, animate body or at the levels of vegetative or still. Instead, we feel the forces that operate in the body; how they equalize with the Nature that surrounds us; and how they are unified and connected to the general, global nature.\nIn that state, we really see ourselves as an integral part of this system and come to know the laws of Nature, feeling the eternity and perfection that exist in Nature.\nEvolution ends when each person attains the whole of Nature, becoming identical to it, in balance with it, in wholeness and unity, using all of qualities in a mode of giving; that is, all of us must eventually come to use the force of giving just as Nature does. When we achieve that state, we\u2019ll see that our entire evolution has actually been a preparation for this. Even before Earth was created, all the forms of development of the ego in the world of reception\u2014from inanimate to vegetative, animate, and the birth of humanity until this day\u2014have been preparations for the evolution of the human species, which is now on the threshold of entering the new world of bestowal.\n\u2039 Do You Know Where Your Inner Development Is Leading You?\nHow to Acquire Perfect Love \u203a",

        "raw_content": "Class and the Information Age.\nFrom the Industrial Revolution of the last century, to our post-modern age, class forms the bedrock on which society gives structure to its means of production and distribution. This hasn't changed with the metamorphosis that is taking place, as we move into an informationally dominated society. Once again the battle lines are drawn and mirror the class structure that continues to dominate modern society. And for all the rhetoric about information emancipating the underclass's, this is little more than a mirage.\nInformation is power in the same way that knowledge was power in the last century. The Clothier dominated his workforce who produced the goods that he would sell on to his customers. His position remained unassailable as his workforce had little access to the knowledge that the Clothier possessed. The Industrial Revolution bought with it a new form of organised oppression. The poor and underclass's were shepherded into factories to produce goods for their masters, who in turn provided them will all the necessarties of life. This captive workforce knew only what they needed to carry out their part of the manufacturing process.\nThe Information Age is offering society a new and altogether more Utopian existence. Or is it? Class still dominates this new commercial environment. Large corporations still dominate the market they have themselves created. And how do they maintain that dominance? They use the underclass's as grunt labour. Third world countries may be participating in this brave new world, but all they are offering the West is what they have always: an underpaid captive labour force.\nJeremy Bentham wrote of a panoptic society. His Panopticon was a prison so designed that all the inmates were visible at all times. Being under constant surveillance instilled in the inmates an innate fear of their masters. Bentham proposed that under these conditions a tidy profit could be made from this labour. The sweatshops of the Far East don't seem to be a million miles from this archaic form of slave labour.\nIn the West this situation is little better. Those with the means of access will be able to flourish in this new landscape. However, those that begin disadvantaged will remain disadvantaged. The argument that the underclass's will be emancipated is little more than a veiled attempt to set the conscious of big business at ease. In effect the opposite is taking place. The polarisation of our society continues unabashed. The elite race into the distance, taking their technology and advantages with them. The rest are left to fend for themselves. This usually means finding a niche in this new marketplace for their skills. These tend to be of low value, and so exacerbate their plight.\nEducation is at the heart of everyone's opportunity. However, society pays little attention to this. Government spending on state prisons now exceeds that on education. And what do some inmates do? Input information into massive databases for large corporations! Here in the UK, BT has plans to connect each and every school to the Internet. This is simply not enough. The basic infrastructure is fine, but training and further resources are needed to make the most of this initiative. Those resources are not forthcoming.\nAlso the notion that simply giving the disadvantaged access to information technology will allow them to move on is simply illogical. Again form Class Warfare in the Information Age, \"Class still exerts a profound influence on the way people's self images develop. Self-image, in turn, exerts a profound influence on the way people develop their job skills.\" The very psyche of a population must be changed. People must no longer have to know 'their place' in society, but be freely encouraged to develop as they wish, and take advantage of the opportunities that modern technology is offering them.\nInformation it is said should be free. In an economic sense this will never be the case. Information is the new commodity of the next century. Its possession and manipulation will form the cornerstone of modern business. The skills needed to manipulate that information will be in great demand, but we are not educating our workforces to take advantage of these new opportunities. Literacy levels are falling. In this scenario class divides will continue, and will be reinforced.\nA quantum shift in the perception of information needs to take place. Information as commodity will never break through this barrier as in a society where intellectual property is all important, information will always have an intrinsic monetary value. It's unlikely that this will change in the near future. Changing centuries of belief in property and innate worth in any manufactured item is almost impossibility. Information will have to fight hard if it is to be free to all.\nIt would seem that we all ill prepared for an information society, either economically or socially. If we were, we would be devoting resources to this end. The fact that we are not, is conspicuous by its absence. We must begin to think long and hard about our technological future, as the decisions we make today will have far reaching effects tomorrow.\nWhat we must avoid is what economists call the lock-in phenomenon. As we draw up policy for the management of an information society, we must consider all and every facet lest we make the profound mistakes that will lock us into a development cycle we cannot break free from. Scrapping what we have put in place may simply be economically and socially impossible, even if the consequences are grave if we continue on the current path.\nThe keyboard that I write these words at is a prime example. The Qwerty keyboard was developed to slow down typists as they moved too fast for early typewriters. Later the Dvorak keyboard was developed. This has been proven to speed up typing, and with modern word processors being more than able to keep up, this would seem to be the ideal solution. However, the costs involved of training new typists is simply too great. The risk of RSI seems to be something that industry would rather ignore than invest in training.\nA major factor in avoiding the lock-in phenomenon is the training of the workforce. They must not find their skills out of date too quickly, or be trained for jobs that have a very short life span. However, again the spectre of class domination enters the scenario. Corporations need their labour force, that much is certain. They also wish to keep that workforce and so will always attempt to dominate them. Again knowledge is power. And the knowledge that is disseminated to a workforce will always be at the convenience of the elite.\nHowever, the workforce may have their own power over their masters. Each and every one of us brings to any job those insights that are invisible to management. A certain way of manipulating a piece of software. A set of tasks that only the worker has knowledge of when they operate a machine are examples. Management is not privy to this. The workforce therefore does have some informational power over their managers.\nThis hierarchy of information however, is self-defeating. We must foster an environment of trust and co-operation if we are to move forward into the next millennium, and reap the rewards that the information society has promised. If the elite continues to dominate, and the workforces continue with their mistrust of their managers, we will never move forward. Information in this instance must be free, but throwing off its shackles will be almost impossible in a class-ridden society. While we have inequitable classes, and a structure that reinforces this, any co-operative behaviour is the stuff of myth.\nAs we enter the next millennium our information based society will take shape. The millions who are now disenfranchised need to be bought into the fold and educated. No one should suffer, but plenty will. The old class divides will still show their ugly faces in each step we take up the technological ladder. Lets hope we take as many of the worlds populations with us.",

        "title": "Mississippi Public Universities - Public Relations - HIGHER EDUCATION PROVES TO BE EXCELLENT INVESTMENT",
        "raw_content": "HIGHER EDUCATION PROVES TO BE EXCELLENT INVESTMENT\nBy Glenn Boyce\nIn the first half of the 20th century, there were many good jobs available to Americans who held only a high school diploma. These jobs provided stability and an income that, though not lavish, was sufficient to provide for a family who lived modestly and saved prudently. After World War II, a shift began to take place and this shift has only accelerated in the 21st century.\nThe rate of change in the way businesses communicate, sell, distribute and provide goods and services is incredible. Automation impacts everything from assembly lines to distribution facilities and even our own homes. Innovation and adaptability are essential for businesses and also for the individuals in the workforce. As our economy continues to become more technologically advanced, our workforce must have more credentials of value if we, as a state or a nation, will be able to compete in the global economy in which we now live and work.\nTwo reports from Georgetown University's Center for Education and the Workforce underscore the importance of earning a bachelor's degree, both in terms of job availability and earnings potential.\nIn its report, Recovery: Job Growth and Education Requirements through 2020, the Center estimates that 65 percent of all jobs in the economy will require postsecondary education and training beyond high school by 2020.\nThose who invest in themselves by completing a bachelor's or advanced degree will reap the benefits for the rest of their lives. The Center's Report, The College Payoff: Education, Occupations, Lifetime Earnings, finds that earning a Bachelor's degree makes a significant difference in lifetime earnings. Nationally, the median annual income of those with a bachelor's degree is $56,700, which equates to earning $2.3 million over a lifetime. When looking at lifetime earnings, bachelor's degree holders earn 31 percent more than workers with an Associates degree and 74 percent more than those with just a high school diploma.\nWe all know Mississippi falls at the lower end when ranking states by median household income, but having a degree makes as much difference here as in other states. Census data shows that the median household income in Mississippi for a high school graduate is $25,954. The median household income in Mississippi for a college graduate is $40,952.\nAll 25 of the highest paying jobs in Mississippi require a bachelor's degree or higher.\nHolding a bachelor's degree also brings stability in an uncertain job market. Unemployment rates for those with at least a bachelor's degree are much lower than those with only a high school diploma and substantially lower than those who do not have a high school diploma.\nHigher education is an investment that opens doors of opportunity for our citizens and enables our state to advance. Having more Mississippians with a bachelor's degree makes our state more competitive.\nApproximately 20 percent of Mississippians hold a bachelor's degree or higher today, but we continue to improve this number. We have had an increase of 8.9 percent in the number of degrees conferred in the last five years, awarding 17,760 degrees, a record number, in 2017. While steady progress is good, we must raise attainment rates exponentially if we are to advance the state and grow Mississippi's economy.\nWhen Mississippians invest in themselves through higher education, they increase their own economic prosperity, which, in turn, increases the economic prosperity of the state. We all rise together.",

        "raw_content": "PHOTO CAPTIONS: 1. Sunset at Hotel du Village beach, 2. Arriving from Les Cayes by moto-taxi, 3. Every day is market day, 4. Digicel ads are everywhere. I wonder if they provide the roofs for huts like this, 5. Port Salut Beach, 6. I spotted this girl preparing eel, 7. After negotiating a price, the frying begins, 8. We also ordered a fish, fried bananas, and salad, 9. Having fun back at the hotel beach, 10-11. Carnival was celebrated during the day and at night, 12. Breakfast at the hotel, 13. Port Salut is still undiscovered by foreign tourists, 14. Outside Les Cayes at the rice fields, 15. A new friend asks to be photographed.\nWe planned on riding in a tap-tap from Les Cayes to Port Salut. But we got weird vibes from the other male passengers waiting in the back of the truck. When the driver told us he wouldn\u2019t be leaving for another three hours, we took the hint and left. We decided to splurge on two motorcycle taxis for the hour-long ride. As it turns out, the ride was excellent, partly due to the Taiwanese-built road.\nThe scenery between Les Cayes and Port Salut is stunning. As we climbed the hills, I caught glimpses of the coast. Passing small villages, you see what everyday life in Haiti is like. Sadly, the trees have been cut down in many places, mostly to be made into charcoal for cooking, but it\u2019s still possible to see how beautiful Haiti was and could be again.\nPort Salut, population 10,000 has a few hotels. We chose Hotel du Village, which features 9 little cottages right on the beach. The clean, nicely decorated rooms are pretty basic with no hot water, no electricity during the day and no internet. A delightful French woman named Catherine owns the place. I liked how she embraces the Haitian culture and community. We saw her give donations to the Carnival processions, speak respectfully to her employees, and one morning she treated a young man\u2019s wound. Originally, she came to Haiti as a volunteer nurse.\nOur beach was right out of the tourist brochures, with white sand, warm sun, clear water, and very little garbage. Most of the time we were the only ones there. When we wanted company, we just walked 5-minutes away to the public beach. School was out for five days for Carnival, so the place was packed. The funny thing about Haitians, is most of them don\u2019t swim and they\u2019re terrified of the ocean. Unlike Americans, who spread out in the water, the Haitians tend to cram into one small area.\nUntil recently, Andre couldn\u2019t swim and was terrified of sharks. I guess it comes from living in a country so poor that people risk their lives on overcrowded fishing boats, trying to make it to the U.S. Many end up drowning or being eaten by sharks. But since Andre met me, he\u2019s learning how to swim. I predict he\u2019ll actually be a strong swimmer once he gets lessons in Santa Cruz.\nOur second day at the public beach, I was surprised to see several carloads of white people show up. They\u2019re Americans from a group called Healing Hands for Haiti who do volunteer medical work, mostly with children. While Andre played soccer with their interpreter and local co-workers, I chatted with a clown named Paul. He entertains the kids with soap bubbles and Chinese juggling sticks, to warm them up for the doctors. Paul claimed that most Haitians are terrified of doctors because they only see them when they\u2019re dying. Sure enough, before long, Paul was entertaining a group of curious kids who gathered to see the \u201cblanc\u201d or whites.\nAndre and I could easily have stayed longer in Port Salut, but his cousin back in Les Cayes wanted us to spend her day off with her on Feb. 6th, the day before our flight back to Port-au-Prince. After the beautiful beaches in Port Salut, it was hard to get excited about Plage Jolie, but it was nice to spend more time with Andre\u2019s new relatives. We invited them to fish dinners, which as always, took an hour or more to prepare, but were well worth the wait.",

        "raw_content": "Millions of americans are flocking to mexico\nMore than 2 million retired Americans have chosen Mexico as their new home, a figure that continues to increase thanks to the pleasant climate, and favorable economic conditions, Tourism Secretary Gloria Guevara said.\nShe said that retired Americans are a segment of great importance for developing the economy of the nation\u2019s tourist destinations, and added that more and more Canadians also opt for retirement in Mexico.\nAt the same forum, the president of the International Community Foundation, Richard Kiy, said that 53 percent of retirees making their home in Mexico are under the age of 65, and choose Mexico for the favorable living conditions and stable economy.\nHe said that Mexico being near their home country does influence their choice, as does the possibility of purchasing a home at a much lower price than in the United States.\nRecent reports strongly indicate that the highly televised Mexican drug war has not stopped most Americans from traveling or moving south of the Border. In fact, according to an ABC News report, of the 5.25 million Americans living in other countries, the vast majority (over 1 million) lives in Mexico, and many more may be on their way. A number of Mexican communities now virtually look like U.S. suburbs and in some cases American and Canadian property owners outnumber locals.\nIn areas far from US border towns, such as Cabo San Lucas, Puerto Vallarta, Playa del Carmen and Tulum, Mexico\u2019s drug war is a distant and faraway place. In fact, when surveyed, most Americans living here feel that they are much safer than in cities like L.A., New York, Chicago, Atlanta or Miami. Indeed, recent statistics prove them to be right.\nAccording to a report last year by the LA Times, tourist areas in Mexico are 12 times safer than Tampa or Honolulu, 17 times safer than Dallas or West Palm Beach, 26 times safer than Orlando or Houston and a whopping 39 times safer than the U.S. capital, Washington D.C., and Americans and Canadians are coming in droves.\nAmericans and Canadians are sneaking south of the Border for all the usual suspects: tropical weather, pristine property, tree-lined beaches, white-sand, warm turquoise water, crystalline coastlines, the beckoning beach lifestyle, and a litany of other adjectives. But perhaps this time they are descending on magical Mexico for a compelling new impetus altogether.\nPerhaps the biggest bonus for retirees and investors in Mexico has been their opportunistic purchases of homes, condos and real estate property. In key areas, real estate in Mexico is far outpacing growth in other countries.\nHealthcare Heaven\nThe other goldmine that Americans and Canadians are getting in Mexico is the veritable healthcare jackpot they enjoy that includes full medical, dental and vision coverage for about $600 a year. This government run healthcare plan (IMSS) was created for Mexican employees but is also open to legal foreigners. Imagine a healthcare-fantasy world where there are no deductibles, no co-pays, no limits, no prescriptions to pay for and even pre-existing conditions are covered after 1-2 years. No small reason to make your way to Mexico.\nThere are now over 18,000 major American companies currently investing and operating in Mexico and it is estimated that over 1 million Americans are buying, building and or retiring here. In truth, no one knows exactly how many American or Canadian retirees, entrepreneurs, and families are now traveling or making plans to relocate to Mexico.\nThat Americans are moving to Mexico is nothing new, but the kinds of Americans who are establishing themselves have changed.\nOne thing\u2019s for sure, it\u2019s not a few, it\u2019s not slowing down, and there seems to be no end in sight. And for those who might doubt it, just ask the Mexican locals and they will quickly remind you \u201cthey\u2019re moving in all around us!\u201d\nNick Fong, Broker of Los Cabos Agent, nick@loscabosagent.com, 624-157-3170 (Cabo), 312-725-3664 (US)",

        "raw_content": "Camille Senum is the president of the St. Cloud State University chapter of the Public Relations Student Society of America. Meet this up-and-comer!\n1. Tell us a bit about your public relations experience so far.\nI became involved with SCSU PRSSA at the beginning of my sophomore year of college, before I fully understood what public relations was. There were many opportunities available, and students without a lot of experience were always encouraged to get involved and help with projects. During my second semester of PRSSA, I served on our chapter\u2019s executive board as secretary. Although the secretary position wasn\u2019t an intense public relations role, it was a great way to learn about public relations through first-hand experience.\nMy first internship experience was in the promotions department at Leighton Broadcasting, a marketing company for St. Cloud area radio stations. Working for Leighton Broadcasting gave me the opportunity to interact with the community, plan events and gain an understanding of how a marketing company operates as a whole.\nThrough PRSSA, I\u2019ve been lucky enough to tour many PR agencies, and hear valuable insight from professionals in the industry. I found a reoccurring theme that many agency employees had pervious internship experience at nonprofit organizations. Professionals often suggested that nonprofits are the best way for students to get experience, so I took their advice!\nI\u2019m currently the marketing and communications intern at United Way of Central Minnesota. Working for a nonprofit has allowed me to work on several diverse projects, and given me a well-rounded background of experience I feel is necessary to market myself. I\u2019ve done everything from write press releases, submit articles and photos to the local Citizen Times, plan events, write success stories on individuals who have used United Way partner programs, create promotional materials and practice customer relationship management with our donors.\nCamille Senum\n2. How did you get to become a \"llama expert?\"\nI like to consider myself a \u201cllama expert\u201d due to my extensive work on \u201cLlama Llama Read-A-Rama,\u201d an annual United Way of Central Minnesota event. The goal of the three-day event is to educate children and families on the importance of literacy. My focus of the event was to create a four-page insert that will run in the St. Cloud Times. The insert includes activities to get children excited about reading, a reading guide and resources for families. In the past, United Way interns have been given the exciting task of wearing a llama costume during the Pajama Party kick-off event at the St. Cloud Public Library. My internship supervisor thought I could use some experience as a llama, so I wore the costume around the office one day. It sure did help inspire some creative ideas!\n3. You graduate in May from St. Cloud State University. How has your job search been going? What advice do you have for fellow job seekers?\nMy job search is in full swing, as I\u2019ll be graduating from SCSU in May. It\u2019s been exciting and stressful at the same time. I check blogs, agency sites and PRSSA resources regularly for internship postings. I\u2019m constantly looking for new ways to make my cover letter and resume stand out from the crowd. What I\u2019ve found most helpful in my job search is utilizing my network. I know students hear \u201cnetwork, network, network!\u201d all the time, but establishing a network of meaningful connections is what\u2019s really important. Some of the best advice I\u2019ve received is to establish and maintain connections with professionals you can relate to, and where a connection comes natural. It\u2019s not a contest of who has the most business cards. I feel I\u2019ve been extremely blessed to have developed relationships with professionals who have gone above and beyond to help me, especially with my job search. It\u2019s a great feeling to know that I have people in the industry I can go to with questions, or for advice, and they are confident enough in me to pass my name along to their connections.\n4. What suggestions do you have for other PRSSA presidents for a successful chapter?\nServing as PRSSA president has been an exceptional learning experience. My advice to incoming presidents is to:\nStart planning early. I would highly recommend having at least one executive board planning session over the summer, and one over winter break if possible. The beginning of each semester is such a busy time for everyone, sometimes by the time projects and event planning really get going, the semester is almost half over.\nEstablish an executive board contract, in order to ensure all board members are aware of their duties and responsibilities.\nAsk for feedback from e-board and general members. I found it helpful to survey the chapter to find out what they hope to get out of PRSSA, what they feel has been done well and what they think we can improve on as a chapter.\nBe as encouraging as possible! I found it most effective to individually ask members to sign up for projects you think they would like, or run for positions you think they would be good at. I first ended up running for an e-board position when one of the current board members called me and asked me to run.\nTake advantage of Minnesota PRSA opportunities and events. There are always fun events going on that students can attend at discounted rates, or use the Fellows Fund to cover the costs.\n5. What is your perspective on social media's role in public relations?\nMy generation has grown up with social media in our everyday lives. Some people feel certain social media are just a fad, which may be true. However, social media as a whole is not a fad, and will continue to change how PR professionals communicate with their publics. I think it\u2019s important to keep in mind that each type of social media provides a different aspect of communication. Some organizations may best reach their publics by Facebook or Twitter, while it may be more beneficial for others to use You Tube or blogs. I think one of the most important uses of social media is opening up a conversation between companies and consumers. By allowing a dialogue, consumers feel they are part of a community that shares similar interests, and a relationship is formed. Social media provides companies with various ways of connecting with their audiences and maintaining a mutually beneficial relationship. Though more traditional marketing and communication tactics are still relevant and necessary, social media has changed the game and needs to be integrated into all communication and marketing plans.\n6. What is your desired career path?\nMy goal upon graduating in May is to obtain an internship at a Twin Cities area PR agency. Touring agencies have been a great way to see what agency employees do on a daily basis, as well as get a feel for what each office atmosphere and culture is like. As a student, I\u2019ve gained a diverse background of experience and I\u2019m interested in many different areas of PR. I feel working in an agency would allow me to further establish my skills and give me a better idea of what my specialties may be, or which areas I\u2019m more interested in. I\u2019m also drawn to the fast-paced environment, and having the opportunity to work on a variety of accounts. Another great piece of advice I\u2019ve been given is to not limit myself. Although I most see myself working in an agency, I\u2019m always on the lookout for great opportunities and can\u2019t wait to see where my future career takes me!\nConnect with Camille on LinkedIn.\nFollow Camille on Twitter: @CamilleJanae\n-- Brant Skogrand, APR, MBC / brant@skograndstudios.com\nPosted by Brant Skogrand\nTags: Minnesota, Public Relations, Up-and-Comer",

I was so siked! I have been trying to break 23:50 for a year. I knew one of my problems was that I go out too fast and crash on my last mile, but bad habits are hard to break...\nI worked on this with Coach Greg on Friday at the track. We did 3x400 (5k pace) and then 2x1200 (5k pace). I finally got a feel for the pace. We also talked about keeping the pace for the whole race and how to increase my effort on the last mile. Having a certified running coach to talk with about race strategy (not just to win, but how to run a race) is invaluable. I have been following his workouts for the past few months and feel really good about my progress. Now I want to go faster!\nThe Resolution Run is one of my favorite races. The route starts at the Joe Riley Stadium and goes around Hampton Park and the Citadel Parade Grounds. There are usually more people at the race, but it was cold (way too cold for Charleston). It was about thirty five degrees when the race started. I lined up near the front and tried to stay warm. I looked around for people I was going to pass at the end of the race (always good to dream). I was really concentrating on not going out too fast when the race started.\nI was able to keep my pace right at 7:35 for most of the race and even went faster for my last mile. This is a major breakthrough for me, I always slow down at the end of every race (no matter the distance).\nI was so excited when the finish line came into view. When I saw my time, I was all smiles.\nI know I can run far, but dropping time is always a thrill - and I did pass some of those people I saw at the starting line...",

        "raw_content": "Post by Charlie Dees \u00bb Thu Jun 08, 2017 5:11 pm\nI am a former student and current staff member at The Walden School's Young Musicians Program. This is a camp for musicians aged 9-18 (including seniors who just graduated) who spend 5 weeks at a boarding school in rural Dublin, New Hampshire. It is the only camp in America which is dedicated primarily to writing music (as opposed to performing), but they gladly accept musicians who have never written a note in their life before as long as you are interested in learning how. Every morning students take a composition, music theory, and elective class (last year these included courses in electronic music, learning how to write a musical, medieval music, a course studying Beethoven's late quartets, puppet theater, and jazz band). Then everybody spends an hour singing in a chorus. Every week there are forums for students to have their works (works works-in-progress) performed, recorded, and then discussed by the audience. There are also free weekly concerts by professionals, mountain hikes, swim trips, dances, open mics, and many nights the entire camp gets together to learn some new songs (in other words, all kinds of cool summer camp activities). While all this is going around, students work with their teachers to write some kind of brand new composition. In the final week there are 3 nights in a row where we fly in professional musicians help premiere everybody's works, and a professional composer comes to moderate the audience discussions about the new pieces. Then, the chorus puts on a really awesome concert. It's an incredibly intense experience which I guarantee will change how you experience music, and it's always been the most fun part of my life.\nI am posting here because the director just told me that there are some unfilled spots, and that even though the final deadline to apply was last month, they are looking for last minute additions and are still accepting applications on a rolling basis. I will not lie - it is very expensive ($7,800, although there might still be financial aid. It covers 5 weeks of full room and board, buffet food, and extremely high level instructors). As much as I wish this weren't the case, it is, so I don't want to mislead anybody here. However, I know enough quizbowlers to know that somebody reading this website is probably a music supernerd who would have the time of their life here, so I wanted to make sure people knew about it. If you and your family think you might be interested in applying last-minute, you should absolutely check it out, or if not, definitely consider it for next year.\nHere is the website - http://waldenschool.org/ - and here is their contact page - http://waldenschool.org/contact-us/\nThe director's name is Seth Brenzel, his email is sbrenzel@waldenschool.org, he's one of the nicest people in the world and I guarantee if you shoot him an email he would love to talk to you further.\nThe camp dates are July 1st through August 6th, and it is held on the campus of The Dublin School (Dublin, NH).",

Had Sandy not occurred the railroad was on track for a new record of 84.9 million rides.\n\u201cOur ridership has doubled in the 30 years since Metro-North's inception and was on track to be the highest ever in 2012 before Sandy struck,\u201d said Metro-North President Howard Permut. \u201cNevertheless, by providing consistent and reliable service and good value, we have been able to double ridership from about 40 million a year to more than 83 million now and we expect that trend to continue.\u201d\nRidership on the New Haven Line did set a new record in 2012 with 38.8 million rides, up 1.3% breaking a record set in 2011, when the line carried 38.3 million people.\nRidership into Stamford also remains strong. Some 5,300 people get off AM trains from both directions, making it the biggest outlying station and the busiest suburban work destination in 2012. About 2,400 people get off trains from the west and 2,900 from trains to the east, about the same as the year before.\n\u201cCustomers count on the New Haven Line every day for clean, safe, convenient and reliable service,\u201d said Connecticut Department of Transportation Commissioner James P. Redeker, \u201cand it's gratifying that commuters have validated our commitment to service through increased ridership. Our investments in new and more comfortable rail cars and other equipment seem to be paying off.\u201d\nOn the Harlem Line, ridership was 26.6 million, up .8% over 2011.\nAnd on the Hudson Line, ridership of 15.9 million was up an even more modest .3% over 2011.Sandy had an impact long after most weather events are over and done.\n\u201cIt is unprecedented that three-months after the storm, the effects still were being felt,\u201d said Robert MacLagger, Vice President of Planning. \u201cIn December, 11% of lower Manhattan office buildings were still unoccupied due to electrical problems, elevators still inoperable and telephone problems. And many of Metro-North's commuters work in Lower Manhattan.\u201d\nDecember 2012 commutation sales were down 2% compared to December in 2011.\n\u201cBut sales of monthly tickets in January seem normal for the first time since Sandy, so that's positive,\u201d MacLagger added.\n\u201cLife is returning to normal for a lot of these buildings in Lower Manhattan,\u201d MacLagger said. \u201cThe New York City economy has been rebounding, the quality of our service continues to be excellent, with an on-time performance of 97.6% systemwide last year. We added significant service in October and we are adding a lot more off-peak and weekend service in April so these things help attract more riders.\u201d\nWest of the Hudson, ridership on the Port Jervis Line, which was hit hard by another storm, Hurricane Irene in 2011, continues to lag.\nOverall, West of Hudson ridership was down 4.1% compared to 2011. The Port Jervis Line was down 6.8%, while the Pascack Valley Line increased 1.1%",

        "title": "Boys Before Flowers: My Guilty Pleasure |Seoul Searching",
        "raw_content": "Boys Before Flowers: My Guilty Pleasure\nNever have I been an avid television watcher. Sure, I've had my bouts of Grey's Anatomy addictiveness here and there, but I have never seen an entire season of any show from start to finish. That is, until now.\nA short time ago, I wrote that I had been enjoying Korean television as I got ready for work in the mornings. A particular show caught my attention and after seeing and becoming completely hooked after a few episodes, I decided to try to find it on the Internet, preferably with English subtitles so I could fully understand it. After plugging in some keywords on Google, I located it on MySoju. Since that day, my life has revolved around \uaf43\ubcf4\ub2e4 \ub0a8\uc790 or \"Boys Before Flowers.\" While I am still trying to analyze the significance of the incredibly popular Korean drama's title, I know one thing is for certain: this is the best damn TV show I've ever seen.\nThe show, based on a Japanese manga series, follows the life of Jan Di, your average middle class girl. Her extremely comical family owns a dry cleaning store near Shinhwa High School, a preparatory school that only accepts students from the richest and most powerful families of Korea. As Jan Di is delivering a student's clothes one day, she inadvertently saves a suicidal boy attempting to jump off a building. Fearing bad publicity, the president of Shinhwa admits her to the school on a swimming scholarship. She soon meets F4, the four richest and most spoiled boys of Shinhwa. Despite their arrogance and cruelty toward the student body, everyone adores them. Jan Di tries to avoid confrontation with the F4 at all cost because she has been told what happens to those that stand against them: public humiliation and societal torture. Being golden-hearted Jan Di, however, she stands up to their leader, Gu Jun Pyo, when her friend accidentally gets ice cream on his Florentine leather shoes. Once becoming involved with the F4, her life soon becomes a whirlwind of drama: love triangles, paparazzi chases, jet setting, and scandal.\nThere are only 25 episodes in the series, each lasting about an hour. While this may seem very short for a TV show, each episode is action packed. In one alone, a character may have a close encounter with death three different times, a friendship will end, two romantic relationships will begin, and multiple storylines will finally converge. Each PG-rated episode leaves the viewer full of emotion (I've quite literally sobbed in particular episodes) highly anticipating the next with a strong cliffhanger. I'm quite certain that my blood pressure has raised 20 points, at least, since I watched the first episode. In addition, the actresses and actors are not only pretty faces- they are extremely talented and make the slightly unrealistic plot seem believable. They are, no doubt, the reason why \"Boys Before Flowers\" has been such a success in Korea, especially among the female population.\nWhile I did not notice before the show, these guys are everywhere. For instance, walking through Meyongdong last week, I snapped pictures whenever I saw them. In just ten minutes, I spotted lifesize cardboard cutouts or posters of their devastatingly handsome faces in shoe stores, restaurant chains, convienence stores, retail clothing stores, cell phone kiosks, and even cosmetic stores. Three of the F4 guys each have contracts with different beauty stores. I found this to be extremely strange at first. Why in the world would stores selling the likes of makeup, perfume, and hand creme use males as their primary advertisers? But then, as I started to think, I came up with most plausible reason I could: if the boys' beauty is any indication of the effectiveness of their products, I'd want to use those products, too. Their perfectly chiseled noses and luscious lips have led many to believe that each actor underwent plastic surgery, which is so common in Korea. In fact, only one actress admitted to having surgical cosmetic alterations; ironically, her character in the story was publicly humiliated for doing so in the show.\nKim Bum, who plays So Yi-jung, the \"Cassanova\" of the F4 models for a shoe store. He is sooooo adorable.\nLee Min Ho, aka Gu Jun Pyo, is the face of Etude House, a popular cosmetics store, on posters and TV.\nMin Ho again in cardboard cutout form in the window of Dunkin Donuts. He also stars in his own commercial.\nKim Bum on the facade of It's Skin, another popular cosmetics store.\nKim Doo Young advertises for DK soda at a bus stop in Suyu.\nF4 even has contracts with food products, such as this coffee brand.\nIn any case, I have a huge fat crush on Gu Jun Pyo, played by Lee Min Ho. This week, after seeing my Lee Min Ho cell phone charm (don't judge me), one of my day students who shares the same love for him brought me pages of stickers of his face as well as trading cards of the other characters. Another student ran up to me and though slightly out of breath she informed me she had very important news: \"Teacher, Gu Jun Pyo was at Carribean Bay this weekend! You should go next weekend to look for him!\" I even use examples from the show to help the students understand vocabulary words: \"Attitude. When Gu Jun Pyo started to like Jan Di, his entire attitude changed. He was no longer so mean to everyone.\" \"Ooooooohh,\" the students reply.\nIt's especially fun to talk with the kids and my Korean co-workers about the show- they love that I love it. I've also started to convert my friends, and they have quickly become just as obsessed. It's slightly scary that we squeal like schoolgirls when we talk about the unfolding events and crazy drama on the show. Besides entertainment purposes, watching BBF has been a great way to learn even more about the Korean culture and improve my vocabulary. It's also pretty cool to see scenes occur in places where I have been: the Seoul Art Museum, the teddy bear museum, Seoul Tower, and the topic of a recent post: the Seoul Zoo. One of the most adorable scenes took place in the zoo and some of the areas in the pictures I posted can been seen here. See the clip.\nI have finished watching 22 of the 25 episodes. I do not know what I will do with my life when I've watched #25. I think the withdrawals will be worse than those I experienced after finishing the Twilight series. In the meantime, I'm looking forward to potentially meeting Kim Doo Young next weekend at the Korean Wave Festival. If this happens, I may, for the first time in a long time, wet my pants.\nLabels: Boys Before Flowers, celebrities, F4, Korean culture, Korean drama, Lee Min Ho, mysoju.com, \uaf43\ubcf4\ub2e4 \ub0a8\uc790 | 2 comments\nI had to find out the meaning behind the cryptic title \"Boys Before Flowers.\"\nThe title Hana yori Dango, is a pun on a Japanese saying, \"Dumplings before Flowers\" (\u82b1\u3088\u308a\u56e3\u5b50, \"Hana yori Dango\" lit. \"dango (rice dumplings) rather than flowers\"). \"Dumplings before flowers\" is a well-known Japanese expression that refers to people who attend Hanami, but rather than enjoying the beauty of the flowers, head straight for the food vendor booths, preferring tangible things like food and drink to the abstract appreciation of the flowers\u2019 beauty.\n-Thanks Wikipedia!\nMIMSIE August 15, 2009 at 12:28 AM\nYou just saved me a lot of thinking!! I've been thinking about every possibility, but nothing came close to that. Thanks Kate, and I am glad you have now crossed over to the BBF side!~",

        "title": "Mystikka Jade: The Love Crisis Survival Guide: Introduction Chapter",
        "raw_content": "The Love Crisis Survival Guide: Introduction Chapter\nPsychics and Relationships\nThe Love Crisis Survival Guide is written as a spiritual yet practical approach to self-empowerment in the relationship process. Some parts of this book may feel a bit uncomfortable to read, because I don\u2019t sugarcoat information that could be perceived by many as bitter. I will always encourage you to take responsibility for the reality that you create.\nI have come to understand a great deal about relationship crisis resolution as a result of my experience counseling many thousands of people as a professional psychic since 1993. Although my job dwells outside the lines of what appears \u201cnormal\u201d to mainstream society, it has allowed me to tap into the core of humanity - the most interconnected area of the human psyche and condition.\nWhen I began providing psychic readings, it didn\u2019t take long to notice that nearly everyone who consulted me used the same lower-level strategies to deal with drama in their relationships. Although there were always some differences in the details surrounding issues in my clients\u2019 love lives, most of them were asking the same questions, doing the same things and ending up with the same results. The common questions I have always had from clients are:\n\u201cWhat is he or she feeling about me and our relationship?\u201d\n\u201cWhen will I hear from him or her?\u201d\n\u201cWhen is he/she going to call?\u201d\n\u201cWhen will I see him or her?\u201d\n\u201cWill we ever be a \u2018real\u2019 couple, and when (There are variations of this question, such as: \u201cWhen will he/she commit?\u201d or \u201cWhen will he propose?\u201d)?\u201d\nI feel I must start off by addressing the fact that, \u2018WHEN\u2019 is truly a four-letter word of the worst kind when it comes to getting readings. Psychic energy comes from a non-linear place, outside of the space-time continuum.\nWe as people have the free will to make choices and take actions that can alter the time it takes for a situation or event to transpire. Therefore, it is my opinion that psychics are not able to provide consistent, accurate timeframes for their predictions.\nMany people call psychic readers for a \u2018fix\u2019 of hope when they are not getting it directly from their love interest. When a client feels emotionally neglected by someone significant, the psychic can appear to be the best candidate to assure them that they are loved by the object of their affection, or that the ex boyfriend or girlfriend is coming back.\nMany clients develop an addiction to psychic readings, hoping that the information revealed will calm their tumultuous emotions or fill the proverbial hole in their hearts. The sense of peace obtained by the client usually fades very quickly when doubt starts to kick in again shortly after a reading. They seek further solace by getting more readings. In extreme cases, clients may call psychics several times a day, even if they have accumulated many thousands of dollars in debt.\nThese clients end up losing more than just vital amounts of money in their quest for privileged information. They also end up with so many different opinions circulating around in their heads as a result of all the different psychic readings they have received, that it becomes increasingly difficult to be at peace with themselves long enough to discern the inner voice of their own intuition.\nMost psychics that I know personally only want to see the client succeed and find happiness in their lives. Granted, there are always deceptive and manipulative bad seeds in the bunch that give the rest of the psychic community a bad name. Psychics who have integrity are still only able to actually help clients who are willing to remain teachable.\nPsychic consultations can be used as a powerful tool if they are obtained with enlightened intentions by a seeker who understands the limitations of a reading. However, there is a common misconception in this society that the purpose of a psychic is simply to predict the future in the way of fortune telling. While genuine psychics can see the short-term outcome of some situations that have already been set in motion, we are not able to see forward and backward through time as if we were omnipresent.\nCommon ground between me and other readers I respect is that we strive to help the client stretch the understanding of their role in the creation of their lives. In fact, many successful spiritually based psychics that I know make it a point to educate their clients about the fact that predictions are unreliable. Our futures are not set in stone, because the universe allows us to alter the course of our lives with the power of our thoughts, decisions and actions.\nPsychics who are spiritually inclined have an ability to rise above the petty aspects of life and see pieces of a greater picture, or a \u2018Grand Design.\u2019 We are sensitive to the directions that someone\u2019s personal life path may take based on the decisions they have made and are currently making. We see and feel patterns in people\u2019s lives that may restrict their potential success, and we have an awareness of how to help the client obliterate them.\nWhile therapists generally get their knowledge from textbooks, spiritual psychics receive information from \u2018the other side,\u2019 \u2018spirit guides,\u2019 \u2018the source\u2019 or \u2018the light.\u2019 Psychics can tap into their gifts naturally, and also through meditation and psychic development techniques. Some psychics excel with the aid of divination tools like the tarot, runes, the I Ching, palmistry, numerology, tea leaves or astrology. Other readers prefer to use their empathic or clairvoyant skills when conducting sessions. Each psychic has their own style when it comes to deciphering and delivering his or her readings.\nPsychic abilities are no different than gut instincts; a sixth sense, discernment, mother\u2019s intuition, or any other more generic term that describes an inner knowing that transcends logic. However, just because everyone has the potential to give and receive psychic energy does not mean that they can often interpret the vibrations accurately, or that they have the gift of being able to communicate in a way that can relay the information to others in a helpful manner.\nPlease \u2018take what you want and leave the rest\u2019 in terms of what I write here. I cannot be held responsible for the use or misuse of the information I provide.\nThe Love Crisis Survival Guide is now available in paperback.

Civil or crown servants\nThis is a guide to finding records of civil or Crown servants.\nAs a general rule, personnel records of civil servants or employees of the British Crown (whether they were based in the United Kingdom or abroad) are not kept for permanent preservation and therefore are not sent to The National Archives. Those that do survive tend to be of people who served in very senior positions.\nSome records of civil servants held at The National Archives are not yet open to public inspection. Access conditions are indicated in our catalogue.\nFor how long do government departments retain personnel records?\nFor many years the recommended retention period for most civil servants\u2019 employee personnel records was 85 years from the date of birth or five years after death, whichever was later. Guidance to government departments following the 1998 Data Protection Act recommended that records should be retained by the creating government department at least until the person reached 72 years of age. However, the advice to civil service departments now is that documents which have a bearing on pension entitlement should generally be kept for 100 years from date of birth. There are exceptions to all of these rules and variations between departments.\nOnce retention periods have elapsed records are usually destroyed.\nContact the respective government department for details on how to access their personnel records. Personal information, where it is held, will be subject to the terms of the Data Protection Act 1998.\nRoyal Household Staff 1526\u20131924\nThe two departments responsible for staff in the Royal Household can be divided broadly between above stairs (Lord Chamberlain\u2019s) and below stairs (Lord Steward\u2019s).\nSearch for a Royal Household employee from 1526 to 1924 using the Royal Household establishment lists and Royal Household index sheets (\u00a3) on findmypast.co.uk.\nCivil Service evidences of age (for years of birth between 1752\u20131948)\nSearch the index to Civil Service evidences of age (\u00a3) records on findmypast.co.uk. The records were originally collected by the Civil Service Commission and are now held by the Society of Genealogists.\nRecords available only at The National Archives in Kew\nTo access the records listed in this section you will either need to visit us, pay for research (\u00a3) or, where you can identify a specific record reference, order a copy (\u00a3). Published resources are for on site consultation only.\nLists of staff in various government departments\nAlthough The National Archives does not hold employment records, there are some lists of civil servants in the records of some government departments.

Because CBD is thought to improve drug efficacy, it could be required to lower medication levels to avoid greater toxicity. Yes, CBD has to be taken with food. CBD provides tremendous health benefits that ought to be enjoyed by everyone. Moreover, CBD prevents procrastination as it reduces strain and anxiety, assisting you to concentrate on completing tasks. The most important thing we have to bear in mind is that CBD (Cannabidiol) is not some form of snake oil drug. Koi CBD is among the exceptional CBD juice brands on the marketplace.\nCBD oil can decrease pain and inflammation and discomfort associated with different health conditions. CBD oil, or cannabidiol, is an alternative for pain therapy, particularly in regards to chronic pain. CBD capsules The CBD cannabidiol oil gives the convenient approach to acquire the daily consumption of the cannabidiol. More information on where can i buy cannabis oil on www.wherecanibuycannabisoil.net.\nThe Good, the Bad and Highest Potency Cbd\nIt is possible to come across products containing hemp oil in the beauty part of your community retail shop, yet to get CBD Oilyou\u2019ll either have to be in a state where it\u2019s legal to create or buy an import. Developing in spite of the fact that the item was considered among the strongest cannabinoid oils, it should continue to come up with and be in a position to accommodate all sorts of animals and also have the ability to go smoothly as the time changes in order to adapt to the gradual changes happening in the surroundings. There\u2019s also a 5,000 mg product that\u2019s only readily available to customers in Brazil.\nThe very best CBD gummies ought to be made in the united states, as there are tons of manufacturers living in the USA, and you don\u2019t really ought to buy a product made outside of the nation. They come in either isolate form or full spectrum form. They will help you relieve muscle sores and speed up muscle recovery after workouts.\nIf it comes to CBD, the quantity of confusion among us is undoubtedly a lot. CBD, on the flip side, isn\u2019t psychoactive and has attracted a good deal of attention from researchers and experts for its capacity to improve one\u2019s state of well-being. Unlike THC, CBD doesn\u2019t generate a high as it\u2019s non-psychoactive. CBD is a pure constituent of hemp that\u2019s been proven to have positive health benefits, without causing psychoactive results. CBD, on the flip side, attaches to a different subject of the receptors, enabling it to modify THC\u2019s psychoactive properties. While CBD definitely supplies a ton of health benefits, it\u2019s not the conclusion of all diseases as we know it. Everyone responds to CBD differently, therefore it is well worth it to do a little experimenting to work out which concentration offers you the effect you\u2019re looking for.",

        "raw_content": "1T-MONOS is being proposed as a solution for applications where flash hasn\u2019t previously been embedded\nFlash memory has become ubiquitous. It\u2019s the technology that features in all those memory expansion cards used in consumer electronics devices, as well as being the \u2018go to\u2019 storage medium for the vast majority of embedded systems.\nBut flash is dominant despite its properties. In particular, flash has a finite life and data can\u2019t be written and erased by the bit \u2013 it uses a page based approach in which blocks are the order of the day. Flash also consumes a lot of power. Even so, demand for flash is growing at 45% per year.\nWhen it comes to integrating flash onto devices such as microcontrollers, the concept brings manufacturing complexity, although that\u2019s not something the industry has shied away from.\nThe major challenge to flash comes from Moore\u2019s Law; the smaller the process, the harder it is to make reliable flash memory. With a \u2018brick wall\u2019 expected at the 10nm node, manufacturers have started to use a multilayer approach in order to keep flash useable.\nNevertheless, flash memory technology continues to develop \u2013 with particular emphasis on the on chip aspect. One of the most recent such developments has been announced by Renesas. It says its one transistor (1T) MONOS flash will bring better performance and reliability to devices aimed at the automotive sector.\nFlash, in Renesas\u2019 opinion, has been incompatible with the analogue and power devices used control high voltage drivers for compact motors in automotive applications. This has typically been addressed either by incorporating eFUSE technology or using external EEPROMs.\nMONOS, however, isn\u2019t a new technology. Takashi Kono, senior chief professional of the solutions business unit within Renesas\u2019 core technology business division, noted that MONOS technology started out being used in products such as EEPROMs and IC cards. \u201cRenesas has been developing and mass producing non volatile memory using the MONOS structure for more than 30 years,\u201d he said. \u201cThe major advantages of the MONOS structure are that it achieves a high reliability by storing charge in traps in the silicon nitride film and that it has high scalability due to its simple structure.\u201d\nMONOS differs from mainstream floating gate flash in that it traps charge in a silicon nitride film, rather than in silicon oxide (see Fig 1, main picture). \u201cSince the charge storage layer in floating gate flash is a conductor, if there is a defect in the silicon oxide layers that surround it,\u201d Kono explained, \u201ccharge can be lost through that defect, eventually resulting in the loss of all charge.\u201d That isn\u2019t the case with MONOS. \u201cBy its very nature,\u201d Kono continued, \u201cMONOS has high reliability in data retention; the most important characteristic for non volatile memory.\u201d\nIn those 30 years, MONOS has evolved in two directions (see fig 2, below). One such development has been the split gate variant (SG-MONOS). Kono said: \u201cSG-MONOS combines the MONOS structure with a split gate structure \u2013 the role of the selection transistor. This technology is used in applications that require high performance and large memory capacities. The split gates are formed from the low voltage, high performance transistors used in the CPU and logic blocks.\u201d\nSG-MONOS is not only low power, but can also provide random access to data at rates in excess of 100MHz because the read path is composed of core transistors. A further benefit is that it enables source side injection. The technology lends itself to products that require high performance and larger capacity memories, says Renesas.\n\u201cThe combination of these features with the inherent MONOS structure means SG-MONOS has large advantages over the conventional floating gate type flash memory widely used in MCUs,\u201d Kono continued. \u201cRenesas uses SG-MONOS as a main technology in its MCUs fabricated in 150nm and later processes.\u201d\nThe other direction which MONOS has followed is the development of 1T technology. \u201cThis can be embedded with a minimal number of additional masks in applications where the percentage of chip area taken up by the flash memory is small,\u201d Kono said. \u201cThis technology features a simple 1T memory cell and can be programmed with low power due to tunnelling.\u201d\nAnd it is this technology that Renesas outlined at ISSCC 2016. According to the company, it enables a read/write endurance in excess of 100million cycles at junction temperatures of up to 175\u00b0C. It also has a rewrite energy of 0.07mJ per 8kbyte, achieved using adaptable slope pulse control as a means to weaken the electric fields that can degrade memory cells.\n\u201cThe technology announced at ISSCC 2016just a few additional masks,\u201d said Kono, \u201cwhereas ordinary embedded flash requires 10 to 20 more masks. It can also be embedded in a wide range of base processes and can achieve the high temperature reliability required in automotive applications.\u201d\n1T-MONOS is said to keep additional process costs as low as possible while providing a way to add flash memory to automotive analogue and power devices. Renesas says this has the potential to reduce the number of chips used in motor control systems, while helping to make them more compact, lightweight and power efficient.\nSo far, Renesas has developed prototypes of 128kbyte memories using 1T-MONOS technology on a 90nm process. But Kono said the company is planning to start volume production of devices featuring 90nm 1T-MONOS in 2019.\nWhile Renesas has automotive applications firmly in mind when it comes to 1T-MONOS, the company says the technology can also be used to support a range of consumer and industrial applications. As Kono pointed out, the technology is particular suited to those applications where the amount of memory and the area it occupies is relatively small. \u201cBecause of this, it can be adopted in products and processes in which flash memory has not previously been embedded.\n\u201cThese applications,\u201d he concluded, \u201ccan now enjoy the benefits of embedded flash. And, since low power program/erase is possible, it will also suit low power applications, including devices being targeted at the IoT.\u201d\nResistive RAM looks to oust flash\nWhile MONOS is looking to provide a better version of flash, other companies are looking to develop alternatives. One in particular is Crossbar, which is backing resistive RAM (RRAM).\nAccording to the company, its RRAM technology can outperform NAND flash significantly, offering x1000 faster writes and x1000 the endurance. Along with high temperature operation, Crossbar\u2019s RRAM is said to have more than 40 times the density of DRAM.\nCEO George Minassian said: \u201cThe IoT and wearables markets require energy efficient, secure and low cost microcontrollers. Crossbar\u2019s RRAM technology is an ideal solution to address these requirements by providing embedded memory blocks for program and data storage on chip or as stand alone EEPROM.\u201d\nCrossbar\u2019s RRAM is compatible with CMOS and is said to scale to small process geometries. This, it contends, will enable the integration of non volatile memory blocks at the same process nodes of MCUs and SoCs. And an indication of its potential comes with the recent signing of a deal with Chinese foundry SMIC to offer Crossbar RRAM blocks on its 40nm CMOS process.\nhttp://www.crossbar-inc.com\nhttp://www.renesas.eu/",

How do you prepare to be a parent? Will you be a good parent? How can you help your children build a solid foundation of values and behaviors that will support them throughout their life?\nThis little book should put your mind at ease. It is written by an eighty-year-old grandmother who spent a lifetime observing people, and figuring out what brings the most happiness and fulfillment to life. Rather than focusing on the child, she focuses on preparing the parents for their new role. In an easy to read narrative, the author lays out the values she has grown to believe are the most important, and discusses ways that these values can be passed on to the child.\nHer intention is not to impose her beliefs on the readers, but rather to challenge them to build their own list of values. The preparation for being a parent takes a lot of thought and soul searching, but once your own goals and values are clear in your mind, you will be ready to welcome your precious little one into the world, and have confidence that you are ready to be a good parent. It only takes three hours to read Building a Powerful Foundation, but those three hours could have a big impact on how you raise your child.\nby Joan Abadi",

About \u00be of the collection consists of correspondence between family members, with several ALS written by famous 19th century figures, some of which are \u201cletters of content.\u201d\nWhile the Brevoort name is not as well recognized as the Astors or the Vanderbilts, many Brevoorts were prominent in social, business, literary, and artistic circles of Old Dutch New York from the late 17th century to the end of the 19th century. They had married into the Astor family and were acquainted, partners, or friendly with many important 18th and 19th century political, social, business and military leaders. Of particular interest is the insight to be gained about the lifestyle, philosophies and values held by these social elite, especially in the decades before the Civil War.\nThe earliest item, relating to a 1694 land transfer, is concerned with an early Dutch estate, Wallabout Farm.\nA search of the Online Catalog of the Library of Congress (OCLC) was conducted to identify any similar Brevoort holdings in North American libraries. Only a handful of Brevoort Family papers were located. This collection then would be the largest known gathering of Brevoort papers. These letters have been passed down through the generations and have been well preserved.",

        "raw_content": "< backHome / Activities / Fishing / Fly / Aquatic A-List\nAquatic A-List\nA rundown of Montana's trout.\nFor most fisher folk in the US, trout and Montana seem to naturally go together. But amazingly enough, most people are pretty na\u00efve about the different kinds of trout we have here. All trout are in the family Salmonidae. In general, all \u201csalmonids\u201d are non-spiny, ray-finned fish that also have an adipose fin on their back, which is a small, soft, fleshy fin located between the main dorsal fin and the tail (caudal) fin. Trout are also classified by their habitat: preferably cold, clear water. Southwest Montana\u2019s native salmonids include arctic grayling, westslope cutthroat, Yellowstone cutthroat, and mountain whitefish.\nRainbow Trout: Oncorhynchus mykiss\nWithout a doubt our most popular game fish, the rainbow trout is native to the Pacific Coast from California all the way up to Alaska. Rainbows can be considered the \u201cchicken of the freshwater fish world.\u201d The species has been planted in freshwater streams and lakes around the world. Rainbow trout are particularly popular to fight and catch since they often jump clear out of the water.\nCutthroat Trout: Oncorhynchus clarkii\nCutthroats are often known to be fairly gullible and easy to catch, but the fact that they are native and inhabit many fast-moving rivers and streams definitely puts them in the \u201ctrophy\u201d class. It\u2019s important to consider that in the areas they still survive, the feeding season is very short. For these guys, there is no messing around.\nEastern Brook Trout: Salvelinus fontinalis\nThe Eastern brook is a very colorful fish, with hues ranging from olive green to dark brown, a silver belly, and light spotting. Unlike the \u201cfreestone river\u201d cutthroat and rainbow, they are more inclined to be found in slower, often-vegetated water with a finer sand or gravel bottom. They prefer cover and a shaded habitat. \u201cBrookies\u201d have been introduced to many mountain lakes and streams, and may become stunted through mutual competition for food.\nGolden Trout: Oncorhynchus aguabonita\nIt is safe to say the golden trout is considered the most beautiful of all the trout species\u2014their entire body is a myriad of color. Originally from California, golden trout have been planted in several alpine lakes of Montana. The Beartooth Range is one of the best areas to search for them, and the hikes to the lakes can be as spectacular as the fish. Mid-July is your best bet, and if you hit the spring spawing period, you\u2019ll have the best luck fishing by a lake\u2019s inlet or outlet. This would likely be a trophy fishing trip for this particular species.\nBrown Trout: Salmo trutta\nBrowns are known to go to deep water, particularly as they age. In reservoirs and lakes, they can be very difficult to catch. As brown trout age, they feed more on larger prey, such as other fish. For the larger trout enthusiast, big-river browns\u2014particularly during the fall spawning period\u2014are a popular target.\nArctic Grayling: Thymallus arcticus\nThe Arctic grayling deserve mention\u2014not only because they are native and have a beautiful, sail-like dorsal fin, but also because they still survive in Montana. The local population still exists, but its habitat alteration has had a severe impact. In recent years, land owners, state/federal land managers, biologists, and conservation organizations have made great strides in cooperating to save this species in its wild habitat. Planted populations of graylings do exist in high-elevation lakes, so they can be legitimately fished for in Montana.\nKen Sinay is the director of Yellowstone Safari Company in Bozeman.",

        "raw_content": "Connecticut Secure Retirement Plan\nOn May 7, 2014, the Connecticut General Assembly passed a \u201cbudget implementer\u201d bill that includes provisions to lay the groundwork for a new state-administered retirement savings plan for private-sector workers who do not have an employer-provided pension or retirement savings plan. The bill allocates $400,000 toward the establishment of a Connecticut Retirement Security Board and directs the Board to conduct a market feasibility study and create a comprehensive implementation plan for the new retirement program.\nThe Retirement Board, in consultation with diverse stakeholders, will study and develop a portable automatic Individual Retirement Account program to increase participation among Connecticut residents. If determined feasible, the plan would include these features:\nAutomatic enrollment: Employers who do not offer a retirement plan and have five or more employees would enroll their employees into the program through a payroll deduction mechanism, unless the employee opts out. Employers would not have any fiduciary responsibility for the funds and their only responsibility is to send their employees\u2019 money through payroll deduction.\nDefault contribution level: The board will establish a default contribution rate for the plan, but employees will be able to affirmatively choose to increase or decrease that amount.\nLow administrative costs: The basic costs of running the plan will be set by the board, limited to a predetermined percentage of plan assets.\nLifetime payouts and survivor benefits: Upon retirement, workers will receive their benefits as a lifetime stream of income, unless they select a lump-sum payout. Provisions will be made for spousal benefits and a preretirement death benefit that can be bequeathed to a worker\u2019s heirs.\nGuarantee: The Board is charged with establishing an annual guaranteed rate of return, backed by insurance, to ensure worker\u2019s savings will continue to grow.\nIn addition, the legislation requires that the plan will be totally separate from the state\u2019s retirement funds, that it not be subject to ERISA, the federal private pension law, but that the plan must be in compliance with any other applicable laws, rules and regulations.\nThe legislation requires that all appointments to the Connecticut Retirement Security Board be made by July 31, 2014. The Board is required to report the results of the market feasibility study to the Governor and appropriate committees of the General Assembly by January 1, 2016. The Board must submit an implementation plan to the Governor and the General Assembly for final consideration by April 1, 2016.\nFor more information on state-administered retirement plans for private-sector workers, see this fact sheet.\nTags: Automatic IRA, ERISA, IRAs, Legislation, State-administered plans",

His father, a Brigadier-General who fought successfully for 50 years to expand the British Empire, and Conty Sitwell, a spiritualist and lyrical novelist but hopeless as a mother, left a 60 room castle and an estate in Northumberland that extended as far as the eye could see. In spite of Simon\u2019s Distinguished Flying Cross for 100 missions as a fighter pilot in WW2, and his successful career in association with Lloyd\u2019s maritime interests, he finds himself at a loss in dealing with his older brother\u2019s lack of will and talent and abject submission to actresses. Whether Simon, as a second son, can preserve the family and its lands, keep alive their historic presence, and reweave the very elements that define family is the substance of this book, a fascinating and true story, revealing the End of Empire in all its irrationality.\nThe political inflexibility of the 1950s and 60s in the UK denied Simon a career as a writer, and he died early, the year after Lloyds collapsed. His autobiography emerged with his young widow, a conservator for the British National Trust, who also helped rediscover a Rembrandt and is now on the trail of a Titian.\nAs Firefallmedia is publishing Simon\u2019s cousin, Mary C Gladstone and her autobiography about her childhood in Scotland (\"The Moss of Cree\", launching simultaneously in the US and UK in June), it\u2019s appropriate for Simon, with his clear-sky abilities, to follow her into the literary spotlight. All books are available for pre-order on the firefallmedia.com website.\nFirefallmedia is a boutique California publisher with a branch in Scotland and a dozen series, including Science Fiction by Scientists, Libido Beach, Violet Headmess, Mr. Blot, the Highland sea, Masters of Vision, the Cult of the Counter-Culture, World War Two Memoirs, and the Pseudonymous Series. Run by Robinson Joyce and Kathryn Delappe, managing partners, as the penthouse of the real and imagined, Firefallmedia is pursuing a New World idiom: \u201cWe\u2019ve applied for the trademark,\u201d Robinson says happily.\n\"Inheritance, the Abattoir of Wonder\", the fifth book in Firefall\u2019s Mysteries of Fortune series, will launch later this year as well. Also coming soon is Wayne Pinger\u2019s second book in the Angels in Alaska series. Mass market rights will be auctioned in September. The company welcomes inquiries.\nKathryn Delappe\nFirefallmedia\nThe 2nd book in the Highland Sea series, from Firefallmedia The Second in the Angels in Alaska Series, by Wayne Pinger, from Firefallmedia",

        "raw_content": "Post subject: Do you have a music player?\nLately I've been thinking of getting a portable music player so I can listen to music on long trips when I'm not driving. I used to just turn on the radio in the car, but others complained that it makes them sleepy, so I was think of getting something I could hear without bothering anyone else.\nSo I was wondering: do you have music player and if so, what kind?\nI have an 8 gigabyte iPod. It was in the graduation present package from my entire family along with the Macbook and 500-gig external drive. It's really nice, since it's designed to communicate with iTunes automatically regarding what's on my music playlist and what podcasts I have and haven't listened to on either my computer or iPod.\nI have a 4 gig MP4 player. It's good it can hold a few thousand songs and pictures. The only bad thing about it is the pictures become distorted and look very bad because the MP4 resizes them to fit to the screen. It also plays video clips too.\nPosted: Mon Jun 15, '09, 2:43 am\nI've got a Datel Max Media Dock equipped with 4GB CompactFlash Card for my Nintendo DS. The pre-installed MP3 playback program is junk, but the optional MoonShell OS plays MP3's, OGG's, and MIDI files just fine. Also can open text (.txt), most formats of image files, and it's own propriatary video format. A bunch of homebrew games and applications are available that are compatible with it as well, such as DS AIM and Doom.\nI have a 30gig Zune. It's pretty easy to use and holds quite a bit [obviously]. It'll also let you upload art if it doesn't find it for you and you can make playlists pretty easy. Plus if you get a dock you can hook it up to your tv and watch video's from it or just play some music through your Home Theater system.\nPosted: Tue Jun 16, '09, 12:39 am\n1Gigabyte mp3 player and a 1Gig iPod shuffle. Small, but they get the job done. Plus, if I lose them or accidentally throw them in the washer--it's not a huge loss.\nNope, I don't have one. I must confess that I'm not really into many of these new fangled gadgets, etc. I have my radio/cd/record/cassette player at home and that's all I really need. I don't want to listen to music when I go out somewhere. I want to see and take in all the beauty of nature and the sites around me. I can listen to music later. That's just me though.\nI've got an Ipod I got for free and then a little knock off MP3 player that work very well. Though my little MP3 player runs on batteries and eats them up quickly.\nIt's amazing how much an Ipod can hold but it was frustrating trying to get it to work at first.\ni have a 16gb ipod touch. i would highly recommend it. aside from the basics of playing music, which it does well and with a great interface, you'll be able to use access the internet via wi-fi, so you can browse the web, check e-mail, etc. it is basically an iphone minus the phone aspect of it. you can still download apps and get games and such. best purchase i've made in a long time.\nthere are other options out there for more storage and whatnot, but personally, i find that limiting the amount of music i am able to have on me at any one point in time increases my appreciation for particular artists, albums, songs, etc. i also find that having that music on you sort of becomes an arms race between nerds as to who as more. i've known people to fill their 120gb ipods before, and not surprisingly, they only knew about 10% of the music on it.\nHow much does this little device cost?",

        "title": "A BITTER HISTORY \u2014 Put A Egg On It",
        "raw_content": "Tequila Old Fashioned, made with Bittercube Jamaican #2. Recipe below.\nBitters have been having a moment for a while now. For the past couple of years we\u2019ve seen the rediscovery and resurgence of these alluring liquids in bars around the world. Technically there are two types of bitters: Amaro, Italian for bitter, is what your grandparents would receive after, or possibly at the start of, a meal and can be drunk straight. Thought to aid with digestion, not all aperitifs and digestifs are bitters, but many are. Amaro are extracts of different types of plant material, (like herbs, roots, bark or fruit) mixed with water to dilute the alcohol strength. Aromatic bitters share similar ingredients, but are more like pure extracts, where a drop or two goes a long way. They generally have a higher alcohol content, are less diluted, and are not drunk straight, but added to a cocktail or water as a flavor enhancer. Starting with trendy bespoke cocktail bars and working their way down to the local dive, you can now get a solid negroni at most places, but where did they come from?\nThe earliest evidence of bitters being added to alcohol was found in a vessel that held wine, buried in a tomb dating back to 3150 B.C.E. Egyptians likely added either terebinth or pine tree resin to wine to take advantage of its antioxidant properties. It is also likely they added herbs to wine, although difficult to pinpoint exactly which ones with certainty, because the compounds found in the vessels containing the wine are shared across ten herb genera, although only three of these are thought to have been found growing in the area when the wine was made. It is probable that tree resins were also added to fermented beverages as early as the Neolithic period in China, but not provable because of the environmental degradation. It is also probable that around 3000 B.C.E. they were adding herbs to wine in Spain and beer in Europe, but not yet proven with as much evidence as the previously mentioned Egyptian wine.\nDrinking bitters before or after meals to aid in digestion is first referenced sometime in the 5th Century by Greek theologian St. Diadochos of Photik, who believed that people wishing to \u201cdiscipline the sexual organs\u201d should avoid drinking aperitifs, \u201cpresumably because they open a way to the stomach for the vast meal which is to follow.\u201d Skipping forward quite a bit to the 17th Century, bitters started being identified with patent medicine. Named after the \u201cletters patent\u201d given by English royalty, patent medicine was a catch all term for over-the-counter medicine. The letters patent worked in the same way a patent works today, where the manufacturer was given a monopoly over the formula; although today medicinal patents generally only last for a certain amount of time, and then after they expire other companies are allowed to manufacture their own version. Bitters were believed to have medicinal properties and were consumed either as a shot or diluted into a glass of water, not mixed into alcohol.\nBitters for health, 1870's\nSometime in the 18th century, people in England were mixing bitters into Canary wine to help cure hangovers, and by the early 1800\u2019s bitters were being used to cure or prevent all types of ailments, from malaria to headaches. Both aperitifs and digestifs came into vogue in the late 19th Century in Europe, as people coming back from military tours of Africa had grown accustomed to drinking them while abroad to prevent illness, both straight and mixed into drinks. The first definition of the word cocktail, published in the May 13th, 1806 edition of the newspaper The Balance, and Columbian Repository, mentions bitters as one of the ingredients necessary, although at the time cocktail wasn\u2019t the catch all term for alcoholic drinks it is today and meant a more specific type of mixed drink.\nThe temperance movement really changed the use of bitters in everyday life. Even though they had a high alcohol content, bitters were typically classified as a food product, and therefore allowed to be drunk during prohibition. This became a bit of a double edged sword for the companies that made bitters, because while they were legally allowed to sell them, they had become commonly mixed into alcohol and therefore most widely used by bartenders. In combination with the Pure Food and Drug Act of 1906, which shut down many small makers of bitters, when the bartenders disappeared so did many of the remaining brands. While even strict teetotalers accepted the use of bitters for medicinal purposes, average people stopped using them unless to add to poor quality homebrewed or bootlegged drinks to bring up the alcohol content. After the repeal of the Volstead Act in December of 1933, the damage had already been done.\nBitters began to make their way back across the Atlantic in the 1970s with the resurgence of the cocktail, but the palate of the era skewed towards sweet and generally only called for a bar to be stocked with one or two types for cocktails and a few digestifs and aperitifs if they also served food. Even as recently as 2004 there were only three brands of commercial aromatic bitters around. No one can say for sure what caused the popularity of bitters to come back, it's possible the reason was the changing palate, which has been turning towards more bitter flavors in the past ten or so years. Or maybe it is the renewed interest in small batch, local food goods that allowed space for smaller companies to flourish.\n-Heather Clark\n1 1/2 ounces tequila blanco, such as Espol\u00f3n\n3/4 ounces mezcal, such as Del Maguey Vida\n1 dash Bittercube Jamaican #2 bitters\n1 dash Bittercube orange bitters\n1 peel blood orange, for garnish\nIn a cocktail shaker filled with ice, combine tequila, mezcal and bitters.

The \u00a31.4m scheme has taken place over the winter months and aims to give a more atmospheric railway feel to the space.\nThe former goods depot features platforms, locomotives, wagons and carriages - including several important royal vehicles. It is laid out in the style of an old station with posters, barriers and various items once common on railway platforms. The lighting has been improved to better illuminate the objects and give the appearance of sunlight streaking through the station roof.\nOne of the most obvious alterations is a new entrance from the museum\u2019s main concourse area. Other changes include improved vehicle lighting to give better views of their interiors, while a couple of the carriages have been opened up along with some of the locomotives\u2019 footplates.\nThe platforms have been filled with typical station objects like suitcases are barrows, with displays of people's stories that allow visitors to learn about different passenger journeys and the experience of working in a station.\nThe museum says it is aiming to recreate the sights and sounds of a working station such as Waterloo, a large painting of which by Terence Cuneo hangs on one wall. The former railway dog is also on display in a case.\nFew developments have been made to the building since it was first used on a temporary basis by the museum in 1990. It is now the museum\u2019s second largest space, and the goal of the make-over is to tell the story of the social history of the railways, allowing visitors to step back in time and get closer to the collection than before.\nRare shunter event\nThe museum also staged a diesel-electric shunter weekend on March 9 and 10, giving a rare chance to ride behind four of its workhorse locos.\nTwo locos - Class 02 No. D2860 and Class 08 No. 08064 - are part of the collection, while the other two - Nos. 08911 \u2018Matey\u2019 and 09017 - are used to shunt vehicles around the museum.\nNos. 08064 and 09017 are normally confined to the Great Hall side of the museum, with the other two in South Yard. These two parts of the museum are unconnected directly by rail, so the Great Hall shunters - which are not mainline registered - had to be hauled between sites by Deltic No. 55002 \u2018The King\u2019s Own Yorkshire Light Infantry\u2019 via the station and city avoiding line.\nThe three 08/09 locos were used in rotation throughout each day on passenger rides, cab rides, driver experience and cab access duties. Passenger rides were in the museum\u2019s \u2018Queen Mary\u2019 brake van along the demonstration line, top-and-tailed by D2860 with one of the other three shunters.\nAt the end of the day, the two 08s and 09 were lined up for a photoshoot as all three are very rarely together in one place.\nWritten by Paul Bickerdyke",

        "raw_content": "GoPro Daybreaker Rally Goes Back to the Future\nPress Release - 1 August 2014\nThis year it is back to the future for the GoPro Daybreaker Rally, as the event looks to create a modern take on the epic adventures of the 1980s and 90s. Back in the days when the Daybreaker was famous for a midnight start and 400km of competition in a day, it was an achievement just to finish the event. Now in 2014 the event is recapturing some of that spirit.\nHowever times have changed since the turn of the century, and like many sports, the events have become shorter and more compact. Night stages in rallying are a rarity, and a one day event typically is 130 to 160km of competition. Plus the introduction of safety notes, and the desire for competitors to reconnoitre the competition roads beforehand have all helped to change the dynamic of the sport.\nBen Hunt on his way to winning the Daybreaker in 2013.\nThen there are the marathon events that tend to cater for classic drivers, and their cars. Held over 4 or 5 days, these are a test of man machine and endurance. However there is nothing in between these two extremes. A rally event that provides a one day challenge that is an adventure, without the cost and commitment of a multi day event. An event where the weekend warrior and a national champion can compete side by side and feel the same satisfaction of achievement, just for having finished.\nIt is here that the GoPro Daybreaker Rally is stepping up to provide the challenge, and live up to its famous name. Starting from Palmerston North at 3.50am, the competitors will take in two night stages on their way towards Taihape, as day breaks over the back country. A loop of stages around Taihape and then back to Palmerston North, via Apiti, sees the teams take in a total of 205km of competition over 11 gravel road stages.\nNot quite the epic events of last century, but a real challenge for the modern competitor and machinery. \u201cWe have been looking at running an event like this for some time\u201d, says Rally Chairman John Clunie. \u201cEspecially as the number of people asking us when we were going to get back to the good old days was starting to mount. It took some work by our team but we are pleased to be able to provide another unique event on the rally calendar\u201d.\nWith the event also being the final round of the Brian Green Property Group New Zealand Rally Championship, driven by VINZ, there were a number of logistical issues to get right. The balance between distance, time, and resources has been key to ensuring it is an enjoyable event for all, including those doing a one pass reconnaissance the day before. \u201cWe believe we have got it right\u201d, says Rally Secretary Bruce Sollitt. \u201cThe high level of interest from competitors and entries that have already started rolling in suggests that many are up for this challenge\u201d.\nWith the event regulations and entry forms now available for the September 27 event, the opportunity for the competitors to step up is now open. \u201cWe are using many of the great rally roads around Taihape that haven\u2019t been used in competition for years\u201d, says Clerk of the Course Dave Davies. \u201cThey are some of the best roads in the country and just getting onto those is reason enough to enter\u201d.\nEvent information and official forms are available from the rally web site. www.daybreaker.co.nz",

        "raw_content": "Saturday, February 28, 2015Zena Horror\nIt's the last day of February so in honor of it I thought I would create a list of my favorite Black Horror Films!\nAlong with being one of my favorite Black horror films this is also one of my favorite Troma films! Woot! A film about an evil succubus living in NYC and preying on sleazy men who just want to get laid? Why not? Samuel L. Jackson has a small role in this and even though it's small, he still yells.\nFrom awesome director Ernest Dickerson is this forgotten gem! A tale of an undead '70s gangster seeking revenge for his death. I absolutely loved the story line.\nA Caribbean vampire?! Yeeesss! He comes to Brooklyn to find a mate since he's the last of race. This film is a comedy horror but definitely entertaining and worth watching even if it's just once!\nThis film is a anthology, that's completely straight forward and touches on issues in the Black community. The issues ranges from races, gang violences, police brutality and more. The true star in this master piece, in my opinion is Clarence Williams III for his out of the world performance as the crazy mortician who is also the anthology's storyteller!\n\"This ain't no funeral home!\" <~ Creepiest line EVER! Scared me as a kid and still creeps me out!\nThis film is directed by one of the masters of horror, Wes Craven! He made his way into the Black culture a twisted fairy tale about a young kid who sneaks into his psychotic landlord home for the gold. Unfortunately for this kid he discovers that his landlord is even more psychotic than he could even imagine! The house is a pure horror filled with boys in the basement who eats human flesh.\nA tale of a young law student who becomes possessed by the spirit of JD Walker, a gangster from the 1940s. Throughout the film J.D. slowly takes control of the young lawyers body so he can seek revenge on the people who framed him for the death of his sister! The acting in this film is a amazeBALLS.\nTony Todd pretty much became a the most iconic horror villain because of this film! This film is an urban legend that centers around \"Bloody Mary\"! You know the tale of a figure who appears in the mirror if you say his name give times in front of a mirror. Tony Todd plays a black man who was lynched for having sexual intercourse with a white woman! *GASP*\nSugar's boyfriend is murdered by mobsters because he didn't want to sell his night club so now Sugar seeks revenge with the help of using a voodoo spell! Sugar gets help from an army of silver eyeball zombies and gets her revenge!\nI recommend all of these films!",

        "raw_content": "MASSAGE ETIQUTTTE\nCancelling an appointment - You must call, text, or leave a voicemail atleast 24 hours before your appointment. Contact Ria 586-258-6841\nMassage therapist NOT masseuse- A massage therapist is a licensed professional who has gone through a good deal of education and training in order to provide you with a therapeutic massage. A masseuse is often untrained and unlicensed and provides services more fitting to a brothel than a spa.\nCommunicate - If you don't like something, you have to let me know in order for it to change. Don't be afraid to speak up about things like techniques, music, heat, etc. If I have the table warmer on and you are hot, let me know to turn it off. If you are still hot, let me know to remove the blanket. If you feel pain, absolutely let me know! Pain is NOT a normal part of a massage, but rather your body's way of telling you that something is wrong and needs to be changed\nArrive On Time - What time that is depends on what kind of spa it is, whether you've been before, and what kind of experience you want to have. If you are 15 mins behind, we have to cut short your session.\nShower - If there's a shower in the locker room, it's nice to use it before your treatment. It will freshen you up before your treatment. This step is especially important if you've spent time in a hot tub or pool, which has chlorinated water. You wnat to get those chemicals off, not have them massaged in.\nInform - When you make a massage appointment, you will generally get asked if you perfer male or female massage therapist. If you don't have a preference, you are more likely to get a male as many people prefer female therapists. Massage therapists are trained to respect boundaries and use proper draping techniques, so either should be fine.\nSick - This is for your protection and my own. Getting a massage while sick can make you feel worse by pushing the illness through your body more quickly. Fever is also a contraindication for a massage, meaning that you should not receive massage if you have on\nDON'T even joke about sex! Just don't. It's not funny, it's offensive. Yes... I have heard both of these before, and more. You should always be UNDER the sheet.\nTo Talk Or Not To Talk. You can talk during the treatment or be still, as you choose.In general, try to use a quiet \"spa voice\" when you talk anywhere in the spa.\nHow Much To Tip? This depends on the spa. In day spas, 15-20% is typical. Many resort spas add on a service fee, not all of which goes to the therapist. If you'd like to give them something extra for exceptional service, you can. If you were given a gift certificate , ask if the tip was included. We accept all major credit cards and cash but no checks.",

        "raw_content": "You probably have seen this candy before, or maybe you even ate it before. Brought by the Portuguese, perfected by the Japanese. We are gonna talk about the Japanese candy, known as Konpeito. A colorful, sugary candy which comes in many flavors.\nThe word \u201cKonpeito\u201d comes from the portuguese word \u201cConfeito\u201d (comfit), which is a certain type of sugar candy. This technique of candy producing candy was introduced to Japan, early in the 16th century, by Portuguese traders. In 1569, Luis Frois (a Portuguese missionary) presented a glass flask of Konpeito to Oda Nobunaga, in order to obtain the permit for mission work of Christianity. Back then Japan did not establish the infrastructure or refine the technology of sugar yet. Konpeito was very rare and expensive, as it uses a lot of sugar.\nBy the Meiji period, Konpeito already had been prescribed as one of the standard cultural Japanese sweets. The character \u201cSugar plum fairy\u201d in \u201cthe Nutcracker\u201d was even translated into \u201cKonpeito no Sei\u201d (which means fairy of Konpeito\u201d). Konpeito has also become the standard \u201cThank you for coming\u201d gift, which is given by the Imperial House of Japan. It comes in a small box called \u201cBonbonieru\u201d. (from the French Bonbonni\u00e8re, meaning candy box.)\nProduction of Konpeito\nThe Konpeito are usually drops of 5 to 10 mm in diameter and is produced by constantly and repeatedly coating sugar syrup over a core consisting of a grain of coarse. Originally the core used to be a seed. Each grain of the core sugar grows over the span of several days with constant rotating, heating and the application of syrup in a large heated gong-shaped tub called a \u201cDora\u201d. The core becomes a ball covered it tiny bulges. It usually takes 7-13 days to make Konpeito and even today, they are crafted by artisan.\nSo as this is quite a popular candy, many games and animations have Konpeito references. The Star Bits in Super Mario Galaxy, The Gratitude Crystals in The Legend Of Zelda: Skyward sword, even Minior from Pok\u00e9mon is based of these candies. They are also seen in Spirited away, and in various anime, such as Hamtaro, Stellvia and Bleach. They also featured as a key element in the 2017 movie Honnoji Hotel.\nOf course, after all this reading about it you might be curious about the taste. As for me i don\u2019t think they taste that special rather than normal sugar candies, but people may disagree. If you really want to try those cute looking and rather special candies, you can find them easily online on websites such as Ebay.\nSource: Wikipedia, Featured image\nTags: candy, Japan, Konpeito, mario, portugal, Sweet\nPrevious Post Yellow River Valley Civilization\nNext Post Heungbu and Nolbu",

        "raw_content": "The birth of the National Lottery set fund-raisers in every British charity tingling with anticipation - and Dogs for the Disabled were as keen as everyone else. Unlike many others however, last year they scooped the jackpot with a grant of over half a million pounds. How did they do it?\nSays General Manager, Peter Gorbing, \"Applications have to be submitted to fit in with a series of rotating \"themes\" or \"Grants Programmes\", the very first of which was \"Poverty\". I should think every charity in the country sent forms in, all of them like us, bending their applications to fit into the criteria. Of course, we didn't get anything and we realised that we had to wait for an appropriate theme to be announced.\"\nIn 1997, after various large animal charities had criticized the National Lottery Charities Board for never supporting animal charities, the Grants Programme \"Pets for People\" was announced and Dogs for the Disabled got busy.\nThey had already decided to go for broke rather than apply for just a modest sum to cover training a few more dogs. They wanted funding for a long awaited but seemingly impossible project; the Dogs for the Disabled National Training Centre. On a purpose-built site, they could train dogs more cheaply, train clients more quickly, reduce their waiting lists, expand the charity and run their whole operation more efficiently.\nOnce the application form arrived, the hard work of filling it in began.\n\"It took most of the summer, really,\" says Gorbing. \"When you're asking someone for \u00a3550,000, you have to supply business plans for the next five years, valuers' and surveyors' reports, timetables, outline plans, financial details about the charity, background information and details about all aspects of the aim of the funding.\n\"The deadline for applications was 3rd October 97 and in the end we had a pile of paper about 2\" thick which we sent off by registered post.\"\nIn December they received a visit from the National Lottery Charities Board, and realised with a thrill that they must be on the short list.\n\"But we had no idea that we might be in line for one of the biggest awards of the year,\" says Gorbing. \"In the end from the England-wide allocations, only Shelter got more money than Dogs for the Disabled.\"\nA visit from an accountant at the end of January 1998 convinced them that \"something was in the wind\" and this visit was followed by further discussions about their application.\n\"The National Lottery Charities Board wants to be sure that its money will be well-spent. For example, they don't want to award insufficient amounts leaving a charity faced with a half-finished project.\nIn fact, when they looked at Dogs for the Disabled's plans, they decided to give us an extra nearly \u00a343,000, to cover the cost of a project manager.\n\"We found out in March 98,\" says Gorbing. \"that they'd awarded us a total of \u00a3597.595. You'd think we had a celebration, but actually we were just staring at each other, pale-faced with amazement. We couldn't take it in. It was almost too good to celebrate. We'd dreamed of the National Training Centre for years, but never really thought we could get it off the ground.\n\"Now it's a reality. We've already bought the site, work is starting in May 99 and we should be able to open it in January 2000.\"\nHowever they still have some fund-raising to do. Although the National Training Centre will be up and running in January 2000, they need a further \u00a3150,000\nfor additional client accommodation and offices. They have already raised \u00a367,000 this year, and are looking at raising the remaining \u00a390,000 over the next two years.\n\"It would be cheaper to do everything at once,\" says Gorbing. \"But if we have to, we'll complete the extra work when we can afford it.\n\"After all, we are also doing our usual fund raising which is our life-blood. We don't want to channel all our efforts into the Training Centre. We still have to continue with our current training programme, and don't forget we support 130 partnerships which are already up and running.\"\nSo has he got any advice for other charities who are hoping for Lottery funding?\n\"Detail is the main thing. Very careful, detailed thinking. You have to know exactly what you want to do with the money, who will benefit and how. You also have to show that your project is sustainable. It's no use just showing that you are doing something wonderful - you have to show that your organisation is well managed and that you have your feet firmly on the ground.\n\"I don't think, especially for smaller charities, that it's worth spending lots of money on the application process. After all, you still might end up with nothing.\"\nOn the other hand, play your cards right, and like Dogs for the Disabled, your dreams just might come true.",

        "raw_content": "Tomorrow night sees two of football\u2019s biggest rivals come head to head in a massive derby. I am not talking about the battle of Merseyside; nor am I referring to the Manchester Derby. Arsenal and Spurs have played each other about 100 times already this season, so it\u2019s not them either. No, the match I speak of is the battle of the West Country \u2013 Yeovil Town v Bath City.\nFor many years, City and Yeovil would fight it in the football conference, with the chant \u201cGoing down to Yeovil to do the bastards over\u201d an all too familiar chant on the Twerton Park terraces.\nThings have changed a little since those days, however, Yeovil now find themselves in the football league, playing the likes of Leeds United and Nottingham Forest, while City are still in non-league. The sides will meet tomorrow in the Somerset Cup at Yeovil\u2019s ground, Huish Park.\nMany don\u2019t rate the Somerset Cup and see it as an annoyance, getting in the way of league fixtures. Tomorrow night\u2019s game, however, is a matter of pride (even if it is against Yeovil reserves!). More importantly, there is a huge reward for the winners \u2013 a place in the final against either Taunton Town or Paulton Rovers. The prize for winning the final \u2013 a gold plated pitchfork, 76 pence, and a bottle of scrumpy.\nWith all this in mind, it is no wonder UEFA have decided to allow Arsenal, Liverpool, Manchester United and Roma to play their Champions League games the following night. Had their games clashed with the City/Yeovil game, the European grounds would be deserted due to all the football fans travelling to Somerset.\nAn 8-hour round trip to Essex, getting soaked in a monsoon, watching Bath City lose 2-0 and realising that the play offs may not be happening this season. Not a great day out to Braintree.\nOh well \u2013 at least I didn\u2019t get shot with a crossbow.\nPosted by sean on March 28, 2008 at 11:53 pm in Curry, Life In Bath, Pubs with No Comments\nI\u2019ve been off work on annual leave all week, so decided to go to town on Thursday night \u2013 a rarity for me, as my watering holes normally consist of the local down the road, football clubhouses and countryside pubs.\nIt was a case of visiting some places old and some new. I met Jon who I hadn\u2019t seen in ages and went to an old favourite of mine, The Bell. It was a nice spring day and not too cold so we were able to enjoy a pint outside.\nWe then went to one of the best curry houses in Bath \u2013 Jaflong. It\u2019s been a long time since I have been to this restaurant (too long), and I had forgotten how good it was. While they do offer take away meals, they don\u2019t deliver \u2013 a pity; as if they did offer such as service, it would probably be my primary diet (until I died of a curry induced heart attack)\nAfter curry, we made our way back to my flat, stopping at a new pub for me \u2013 The Royal Oak on the Lower Bristol Road. The Royal Oak is a real ales pub. The only ale I have really tried is Courage Best and Gem, as they sell it in the Bath City club house (locally branded as \u201cThe City Ale\u201d). This pub was so non-commercial that they didn\u2019t even stock Gem! I was given something very similar (which I can\u2019t remember the name of), but did enjoy.\nIt was then time to go home. At the time of leaving my flat, it was a warm evening, so I only wore my light denim jacket. When I left the pub, it was a freezing cold night, so I ended up walking home very slowly, shivering all the way back.\nThis evening has been a quite night in. I\u2019m off to Essex tomorrow to watch Bath City play Braintree. This is one of the longest trips of the season, and involves me leaving my flat shortly after 9am \u2013 I don\u2019t expect to be home much before 10pm that night. Time for bed\u2026\nPosted by sean on March 28, 2008 at 9:43 am in Video Games with No Comments\nGetting very excited now!\nOnly in Essex\nPosted by sean on March 28, 2008 at 9:18 am in Bath City, Have I Got News For You with No Comments\nSome rather worrying news ahead of my trip with Bath City to Braintree tomorrow\u2026\nI think it would be wise to wear body armour instead of football shirts and take an axe instead of a scarf.\nAt least if City play badly, we can put the players in the stocks and throw rotten food at them.\nAN Essex football club is helping police investigate an incident in its stadium car park which saw a man shot with a crossbow.\nBraintree Town Football Club has been co-operating with detectives who are looking into the circumstances surrounding an assault in the town in which a man was hit with a bolt.\nPolice were contacted shortly before 10pm on Tuesday night by a member of the public who said a man had been shot in the club\u2019s car park.\nOfficers arrived to find the injured man with a bolt in the side of his torso.\nThe 25-year-old man from Ware, in Hertfordshire, was conveyed to Chelmsford\u2019s Broomfield Hospital where he underwent surgery to remove the bolt.\nHe is currently in a stable condition.\nAn Essex Police spokesman said: \u201cWe\u2019re keen to speak with anyone who saw any suspicious activity in the football club\u2019s car park between 7pm and 10pm on Tuesday night.\u201d\nInvestigating officers believe the assailant drove off in a dark-coloured Audi. At this stage, there are no further details about those in the car.\nAnyone with information in connection with this attack is urged to contact detectives at Braintree police station on 0300 333 4444 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555111.\nSource [http://www.eadt.co.uk/content/eadt/news/\u2026]",

Temperatures have been constantly in the minus figures for days. Our boiler is in overdrive, as it attempts to keep us warm indoors. When I do step outside \u2013 to get to and from the car which takes me to and from work \u2013 I feel like I\u2019m going to freeze to death\u2026 heaven forbid I be dramatic. We went to Pizza Express in town, on Saturday night. Walking through Southgate, in sub-Arctic conditions was not fun!\nAll of this can be blamed on the aptly named Beast From The East.\nThings are only going to get worse, with heavy snow forecast from tomorrow lunchtime. I remember as a kid loving the snow, hoping it would close the schools. Now, as a sensible grown up, who has to work, it\u2019s a pain in the arse!\nPosted by sean on February 18, 2018 at 10:24 pm in Leeds United with No Comments\nLeeds may still be without a win during 2018, but at least they didn\u2019t lose to Bristol City \u2013 something, considering where I live, I would find most embarassing. Luckily, however laughable Leeds can be at times, Bristol City can be equally as pathetic; this time throwing away a two goal lead. See you next season, me babbers.\nThe Vermin Of Bath\nPosted by sean on February 14, 2018 at 8:20 pm in Life In Bath with No Comments\nReaders will recall that yesterday, I made light fun at a resident of Bath taking exception to a woman feeding seagulls. Having reflected on my blog post, I now believe that I may not have taken the man\u2019s complaints seriously\u2026\nPests are a huge problem in the picturesque City of Bath. They seem to be increasing in numbers at an alarming rate. It doesn\u2019t help that there are so many places they can feed themselves on rubbish. While originally just residing in the city centre, the vermin have now expanded their territory and many can often be found living in our suburbs. Along with gorging on rubbish, they can often be seen defecating onto buildings, parked cars and buildings. They\u2019ve also been spotted breeding in public. On an even more serious note, when approached, these hazards have been know to attack members of the public. It is also believed that they carry disease.\nSomething has to be done and fast. If we continue to turn a blind eye to the ever-worsening situation, the entire city will become overrun with students.",

        "raw_content": "I typed in \"stagnation\" but put in a space accidentally. It sounds like some sort of bachelor party movie, or a scary foreign country, so I left it.\nIt\u2019s about time for an update, yeah?\nSo last week I was told that my procedures, which were scheduled for tomorrow, had been canceled. Why? I don\u2019t know. At least they didn\u2019t think I was an emergent case. This morning they called and I was rescheduled for next week. I guess we\u2019ll see how that goes.\nSo of course, after I had that news last week, I had a mini-meltdown, just pissed off and frustrated that three months has already passed and now this is going to be stretched a little bit further. Or a lot further. Who knows. I\u2019m just so ready for all of this to be done. Most of my frustration stems from not being able to hop in the car and just drive anywhere. I can\u2019t get on a plane and travel to conventions. I have a recertification course coming up on Saturday and have to figure out how many oxygen tanks I need, who is picking me up, when I\u2019m coming home, and how many pairs of socks I have to pack because maybe I\u2019ll be spending the night. Usually I\u2019d jump in the car with a cup of coffee, hope I don\u2019t get lost, and listen to loud music while stuck in traffic on the way home. I don\u2019t like depending on people to live my daily life.\nIn other news, I had a guy from Home Depot come out and give me an estimate on what it would cost to get rid of the horrible white tiles on my counter and install granite and a backsplash. I fell in love with a sample, \"Golden Crystal,\" which was of course towards the high end of the cost; Mom always said I had expensive taste, and I guess I do. Everything I love tends to be higher priced. I figure, though, that I really want to LOVE my kitchen and why not spend the bit of extra money to really make it special? I spend a lot of time in there. This project will be put off for at least several months, but I can\u2019t wait to have it started and finished. I\u2019ll also refinish my cabinets, as they\u2019re good cabinets and just need to be re-stained.\nNasty white tile and grout and green walls\nFrom granitegrannies.com\nFrom granix.com\nI may have my master bath done at the same time with the same counter, since the cabinets are the same in there. That leads into backsplashing (is that a word?) above the shower, or even considering having a contractor come in and tear out the shower liner and putting in tile. I change one thing, I guess I have to change everything. This is the stuff I think about when I\u2019m sitting in bed at night, waiting for the sleepy gnomes to take over.\nThis coming week I\u2019m also going to start down in the garage, trying to make sense of some of the disaster area down there so I can clear out my storage unit. I have a lot of stuff that belonged to my sister, and I want to start putting some of it in this house (and save $80 a month on top of that). I love looking around and seeing things that belonged to my family, because they\u2019re who and where I came from.\nToday I also signed up to be a Coach for Team Beachbody. This happened because my Coach and friend Karen talked me into it (I save a bit of cash on the shakes, which I love). Actually, I\u2019ve been doing well on the 21 Day Fix program, with extreme modifications. I\u2019ve been following the food plan to the best of my ability, and do what exercises I can while attached to the oxygen tubing. They have this modifier on the program, and sometimes I will have to modify her modifications, but I get through the exercises one way or another. Such things like Burpees I\u2019ll skip entirely but will jog in place or will rest, depending on what my body is doing that day. I don\u2019t want to risk anything strenuous, but I know that it\u2019s not good for me to just sit and do nothing all day. Try doing exercises while attached to a 50-foot oxygen tubing and let me know how that works for you. It\u2019s a pain isn\u2019t it? I\u2019ve choked myself a few times already and am surprised I have ears left from the number of times I\u2019ve yanked the tube off with my feet. Anyways, I am not going to get into trying to make money off this, because I have other things to worry about, but do hope I can inspire people who didn\u2019t think they could improve their health due to concerns or just getting over the fear of \u201cI can\u2019t do that, I\u2019ll die.\u201d To put it bluntly, sometimes it\u2019s nice to have something to focus on for half an hour instead of letting my mind go places it really shouldn\u2019t. And Autumn, the trainer, is affable. I tend to cuss at her a lot on Leg Day, but she doesn\u2019t seem to mind. If you want the URL to my website, let me know.\nSo that\u2019s about it for now. Hugs and love.\nLabels: backsplash, Beachbody, cardiac, cardiac catheterization, granite, healthy, kitchen remodel, update",

        "raw_content": "Tenement, The\nAn old man who has once inhabited Fairview Falls returns to the town to visit his old residence. He meets with the new owner outside of the building. They discuss the structure\u2019s history. They remember four events during which madness and misfortune struck the previous inhabitants.\nEthan, a twenty-something horror film buff must constantly endure his suffering mother complain and cry from her bed. He obeys to her every desires yet he is not wholehearted.\nAs a clerk at a florist, he receives an order for a dozen black roses for a man named Korman. Ethan loves Korman\u2019s horror movies. Nervous of finally meeting one of his idols, he goes out and delivers the flowers and even obtains an audition. However, things don\u2019t go well and Ethan makes a fool of himself. Everyone in the studio laughs at him. This is the straw that broke the camel\u2019s back; it\u2019s Ethan\u2019s turn to judge.\nIt is to the sound of the music emitted by her old radio that Sarah spends most of her time dancing with an imaginary partner. She is mute and differs from your typical teenager. Her neighbour Henri loves the way she dances. He sees her waltz through her bedroom window.\nOne day, when Sarah\u2019s parents leave her alone, Henri pays her a visit. He insists upon entering, touching her and kissing her. Her reticence doesn\u2019t slow down the intruder. When he is a bit too close, she bites his lip. Mad with anger, he beats Sarah up and rapes her. It is at this moment that something abnormal happens. Henri is plunged into a dark and empty world: a world that judges him for his egocentric behaviour.\nJimmy, suffering from paranoia, takes matters into his own hands and decides to take part in a mutual aid group. He manages to share his secrets in spite of the group\u2019s somewhat upsetting attitude. It is night when the heads back home and is attacked by what he believes to be a wolf.\nSubsequently, he feels weak and drools. When his doctor questions him, he openly admits believing he is transforming into a werewolf. The specialist prescribes sleeping pills and psychiatric help.\nJimmy wakes up after a very long night and is famished. The first thing he can get his hands on is a bowl of raw meat, which he devours. Still, his hunger has not end and animal flesh does not suffice.\nA girl catches a taxi ride but, once it\u2019s too late, she realizes that no taximeter is present. She is hit in the face by the driver. When she awakens, she is tied up and her face is covered with a plastic film. After mentally torturing her, the driver finishes her off by strangulation.\nThe murderer, seeking a new victim, finds another girl. He drives her to her destination, a home outside the city. Once the girl is inside the house, the driver sharpens his knife and heads out to join her. However, some girls are harder to kill than others.\nThe Tenement, created by Light and Dark productions and distributed by Brain Damage Films, is a collection of four murder stories similar to Creepshow Typically, these short stories end in ironic, surprising or macabre ways. What is innovative in this film is that it is a prequel to Fear of the Dark. Furthermore, the scenario for both productions predicted these common links. A second addition is planned, Sins of the Father, which should conclude the trilogy.\nI do not hold in the highest regard short films. They often have nothing to tell or condense the elements that require more exploration. Furthermore, they are too short to be considered as an activity on the same level as a full-length feature. The Tenement opts for the perfect solution: a way to offer diversity and uniformity for an appropriate length.\nThe story that introduces and concludes the film lets us believe that everything will take place between the four walls of an apartment building. However, this is not the case and it was, for me, a quick deception. Thankfully, the good vibrations emanating from the first tale seized my attention and held my interest to the end.\nThe first half of this story is reminiscent of Psycho. First of all, there is the timid young man. Second, there is the sick mother that the camera hesitates in presenting. Their relation is practically the same as Bates\u2019. This was too obvious for my liking.\nI appreciated the two scenes where Ethan faces madness, dominated by his contradictory feelings. The actor\u2019s aren\u2019t great but they have their good moments. I was happily surprised by the distribution of the story. It takes its time to set in and to familiarize us with the characters and their situation. Furthermore, Korman, the low-budget film director, is simply inhumane. I would have been pleased by a more nuanced villain.\nThe violence is crude but the mock-ups aren\u2019t very realistic. This contrasts with the agile psychological direction that was initially taken.\nI can only shiver at the sight of a mute girl that does nothing but waltz absentmindedly. The most amusing is that she isn\u2019t sicker than her neighbour who simply wants to be friends. I would not claim that this rape story is shocking. We see the bare minimum to comprehend the gravity of the situation and are quickly diverted to the consequences.\nThis acting team is the best among the four stories. I appreciated the scene where the neighbour ends up in a dark room, gripped by condemning hands. The scene where the rapist washes Sarah\u2019s hair in the bath was, however, totally useless.\nThe concept behind this story is the most interesting. Certainly, the main actor doesn\u2019t succeed in making me believe that he is transforming into a werewolf but he is still amusing to watch.\nAn American Werewolf in London is an obvious source of inspiration. Listening to a song resembling Blue Moon by Bobby Vinton, Jimmy looks in the mirror and truly believes he sees himself metamorphosing. It made me nostalgic!\nThe sound isn\u2019t always good. The echo is most problematic and the dialogue is sometimes poor.\nThankfully, dark humour does its job here. When Jimmy isn\u2019t busy grimacing in front of the mirror, he stubbornly tries to explain his predicament to doctors. What he doesn\u2019t know is that he is the only one that can see it. I loved Jimmy\u2019s down to earth reaction when he realizes he had just killed for the first time. Reality sometimes wins over fantasy in horror films and this sketch proves it.\nThe locations in which the development takes place make it fun to watch: a taxi, a high-voltage electric room and a stable. However, its main problem is that it is a bit monotonous. The characters die and we don\u2019t feel a thing. It is the simple story of a serial killer that, even though he has the perfect trick to capture victims, doesn\u2019t deliver the goods when the murders start: he has no style.\nThe ending is not as generic as the rest of the story but it doesn\u2019t create the desired effect, an effect that must have seemed brilliant on paper.\n- Korman has his cranium crushed in by repeated shovel blows.\n- Jimmy biting his friend in the neck even though he only wanted a bit of affection.\nMovie type: Horror - Slasher - Gore - Thriller - Humor - Diseases - Nudity",

        "raw_content": "Homosexual Relationships in India Decriminalized\nIndia\u2019s Supreme Court on Thursday, Sept. 6, struck down a colonial-era law that made gay sex punishable by up to 10 years in prison, a landmark victory for gay rights. One judge said the decision would \u201cpave the way for a better future.\u201d\nIndia is the world\u2019s largest democracy with a population of around 1.3 billion people. It is the second most populated country in the world, only behind China.\nThe 1861 law, a relic of Victorian England that hung on long after the end of British colonialism, was a weapon used to discriminate against India\u2019s gay community. The judges ruled in a unanimous decision to overturn it.\n\u201cWe feel as equal citizens now,\u201d said activist Shashi Bhushan. \u201cWhat happens in our bedroom is left to us.\u201d\nHomosexuality has a tangled history in India, and some of Hinduism\u2019s most ancient texts are accepting of gay sex. But same-sex couples have also been harassed for centuries in many Indian communities, whether Hindu, Muslim or Christian.\nOn Thursday, a leader of a prominent hard-line Hindu group noted that while it doesn\u2019t see homosexuality as a crime, it believes gay marriage is not \u201ccompatible with nature.\u201d\n\u201cThis will obviously open the doors for a lot of more things; more civil rights. And we\u2019ll fight for our rights, definitely. This is the first battle that has been won, and there are many more battles that we are going to fight,\u201d said Sukhdeep Singh, a gay rights activist.\nOn Monday, Sept. 10, meteorologists announced that Hurricane Florence had become a Category 4 hurricane, reaching wind speeds of 130 mph with its sights on the East Coast of the United States.\nAs of Thursday, Sept. 13, Florence began its assault on North Carolina as a Category 1 hurricane. It made landfall on Friday at 7:15 a.m. in Wrightsville Beach, North Carolina.\nMeteorologist Ryan Maue of weathermodels.com calculates that Hurricane Florence is forecast to dump about 18 trillion gallons of rain in seven days over the Carolinas, Virginia, Georgia, Tennessee, Kentucky and Maryland.\nThe anticipated rainfall amount is 2.4 trillion cubic feet (68 billion cubic meters). It\u2019s enough to cover Manhattan with nearly 3,800 feet (1.1 kilometers) of water, more than twice as high as the island\u2019s tallest building.\nFederal officials have urged anyone who ignored orders to evacuate from Hurricane Florence to hunker down and stay put until the storm passes.\n12,000 people are in shelters in North Carolina, 4,000 in South Carolina, and 400 in Virginia. Nearly 2,100 flights have been canceled and it is estimated that there will be a range between $10 billion to $60 billion costs in economic damages.\nFormer Trump Campaign Manager Accepts Plea Deal\nOn Friday, Sept. 14, Paul Manafort\u2019s lawyer said the former Trump campaign chairman cut a deal with prosecutors \u201cto make sure that his family was able to remain safe and live a good life.\u201d\nManafort agreed to cooperate with the special counsel\u2019s Russia probe and pleaded guilty to two federal crimes as part of Friday\u2019s plea deal. The move allows him to avoid a second criminal trial. He was convicted last month of eight financial crimes in a separate trial in Virginia.\nManafort said he intends to plead guilty to charges including conspiracy against the United States and conspiracy to obstruct justice relating to his work for a pro-Russia political party in Ukraine.\nNeither of the cases against Manafort relates to Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election, the central issue in the special counsel\u2019s investigation. Instead, they focus on financial crimes and Manafort\u2019s Ukrainian political consulting work, including failing to register as a foreign agent.\nManafort was instrumental to President Donald Trump\u2019s securing the GOP nomination in 2016, and served on his campaign until August of that year.\nPress secretary Sarah Sanders said in a statement, \u201cThis had absolutely nothing to do with the President or his victorious 2016 Presidential campaign. It is totally unrelated.\u201d\nPrevious ArticleStarbucks Straws vs. Lids: Eve Said\nNext Article Happy Birthday Seton Hall",

        "raw_content": "Almost immediately after a suicide bomber killed five Israeli tourists in Bulgaria on Wednesday, Israeli officials, led by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, blamed Iran, an accusation uncritically repeated by most Western media outlets even as Bulgarian investigators warned it would be a \u201cmistake\u201d to assign blame before the attack could be investigated. Now, Israel, along with the U.S., is blaming Hezbollah and, therefore, Iran for the attack. (The) New York Times article by Nicholas Kulish and Eric Schmitt \u2013 headlined \u201cHezbollah Is Blamed for Attack on Israeli Tourists in Bulgaria\u201d \u2013 uncritically treats those accusations as confirmed fact despite no evidence being offered for it:\nAmerican officials on Thursday identified the suicide bomber responsible for a deadly attack on Israeli vacationers here as a member of a Hezbollah cell that was operating in Bulgaria and looking for such targets, corroborating Israel\u2019s assertions and making the bombing a new source of tension with Iran.\nOne senior American official said the current American intelligence assessment was that the bomber, who struck Wednesday, killing five Israelis, had been \u201cacting under broad guidance\u201d to hit Israeli targets when opportunities presented themselves, and that the guidance had been given to Hezbollah, a Lebanese militant group, by Iran, its primary sponsor. Two other American officials confirmed that Hezbollah was behind the bombing, but declined to provide additional details.\nThe attacks, the official said, were in retaliation for the assassinations of Iranian nuclear scientists, for which Iran has blamed Israeli agents \u2014 an accusation that Israel has neither confirmed nor denied. \u201cThis was tit for tat,\u201d said the American official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the investigation was still under way. . . .\nA senior Israeli official said on Thursday that the Burgas attack was part of an intensive wave of terrorist attacks around the world carried out by two different organizations, the Iranian Quds Force, an elite international operations unit within Iran\u2019s Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps, as well as by Hezbollah.\nBy \u201cidentified,\u201d \u201cconfirmed\u201d and \u201ccorroborated\u201d Iranian and Hezbollah responsibility, what The New York Times means is this: American officials asserted that this was so, even as they \u201cdeclined to provide additional details\u201d and even though \u201cthe investigation was still under way.\u201d Indeed, this accusation is, as the NYT sees it, \u201dconfirmed\u201d and \u201ccorroborated\u201d even though \u201cno details yet about the bomber like his name or nationality\u201d are known; even though their anonymous American source \u201cdeclined to describe what specific intelligence \u2014 intercepted communications, analysis of the bomber\u2019s body parts or other details \u2014 led analysts to conclude that the bomber belonged to Hezbollah\u201d; even though \u201cthe Bulgarians are still trying to figure out how the bomber entered the country, how he traveled around and where he stayed\u201d; and even though the Bulgarian Foreign Minister said: \u201cWe\u2019re not pointing the finger in any direction until we know what happened and complete our investigation.\u201d All The Paper of Record knows is that U.S. and Israeli officials have blamed Iran and Hezbollah, and \u2014 as usual \u2014 that\u2019s good enough for them. Identified, Confirmed and Corroborated.\nBy stark contrast, The Washington Post\u2018s Karin Brulliard, reporting from Jerusalem, commits an act of actual journalism with her story on this event. She, too, notes the official accusations of Hezbollah and Iranian responsibility, but, as Think Progress\u2019 Ali Gharib points out, she heavily qualifies that in the third paragraph of her story: \u201cIsrael offered no concrete evidence tying the bombing to Iran, and Bulgarian officials cautioned that it was too early to attribute responsibility.\u201d That\u2019s called basic journalism: instead of just repeating official claims, treating them as \u201cconfirmed,\u201d and shaping the entire article around those assertions, she prominently notes that there is no real evidence to lead anyone to believe these accusations. She then adds more skepticism: \u201cU.S. intelligence officials said it was \u2018plausible\u2019 that Hezbollah carried out the attack but that analysts at the CIA and other agencies were still evaluating the intelligence surrounding the bombing and had not reached a conclusion.\u201d\nI have no idea who is behind the attacks. If it turns out to be Hezbollah and/or Iran, that will not shock me: after all, if it is perceived that you have sent hit squads onto a country\u2019s soil to murder their nuclear scientists, it\u2019s likely that the targeted nation will want to respond with violence of their own. But there is no evidence to confirm the American and Israeli accusations. A reader of the New York Times article would not know that, while a reader of Brulliard\u2019s article in the Post would. That\u2019s the difference between journalism and propaganadistic stenography. It\u2019s really not that difficult or complex, when repeating government claims, to note clearly and prominently that no evidence has been furnished to support those claims.\nFollowing up on the argument I made about the Syria bombing \u2014 that Western political and media circles would treat the attack on Syrian officials as something to praise: the U.S. State Department, even when assuming it was a suicide bomb, refused to denounce the attack and came close to praising it, while The New York Times referred to the rebels\u2019 \u201cbrazen assassination of top security officials.\u201d While denying responsibility for the Bulgarian attack, Iranian officials noted this posture:\nThe speaker of Iran\u2019s Parliament, Ali Larijani, criticized the United States for not condemning the bombing in Damascus on Wednesday that struck at President Bashar al-Assad\u2019s inner circle, killing three senior defense officials. \u201cBy not condemning the assassination in Syria, the Americans show that they believe in good assassinations and bad assassinations,\u201d he said, according to the Fars news agency.\nIndeed, in one of the grandest understatements of the year, State Department spokesperson Victoria Nuland, when asked about U.S. policy toward Israeli human rights abuses, recently acknowledged: \u201cWe are not always consistent.\u201d That\u2019s true even when it comes to the question of what counts as Terrorism and whether it is good or bad",

        "title": "Reputation of ICC On the Line in Case against Kenya President Kenyatta - SPIEGEL ONLINE",
        "raw_content": "Reputation of ICC On the Line in Case against Kenya President Kenyatta\n'Big Mama' and the Massacre ICC's Reputation at Risk in Kenya\nFatou Bensouda, chief prosecutor of the International Criminal Court, is doing all she can to put Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta behind bars. But the hurdles are high, and failure could spell doom for the dream of global justice.\nThe road to where she is today was long and rocky. But now, she is the chief prosecutor of the International Criminal Court (ICC), empowered by 121 countries to hunt down the worst of the world's mass murderers and put them behind bars, a criminal prosecutor in cases involving genocide and the world's public prosecutor. She is, in a sense, everyone's supreme conscience.\nFatou Bensouda, 52, and her team have taken the bold step of indicting 51-year-old Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta. But in this case, there is a stark contrast between their aspirations and reality. At the moment, Kenyatta's attorneys seem to have the upper hand. They have demanded that the case be dropped, arguing that there is no evidence to prove that their client is guilty. In mid-June, they managed to postpone the planned court date a second time, this time for four months, on the grounds that the prosecutor's office had not produced evidence on time.\nThroughout Africa, as well as in the West, doubts are growing as to whether the case has a future at all. Daily Nation, Kenya's leading newspaper, called the case \"a farce,\" while a TV commentator in Nairobi referred to it as \"suicide on the part of the world court.\"\nIn recent weeks, Bensouda has been doing all she can to save the situation, spending inordinate amounts of time behind the bulletproof glass windows of her office in The Hague. She works late into the night, only to take yet another look at the files early the next morning. She is possessed of an iron will.\nThere is a great deal at stake. If the case against Kenyatta were to collapse, the ICC would lose what little authority it still has and would become a tool as useless as it is costly. And it isn't just a matter of the court's survival: The long-cherished dream of global justice seems on the verge of failure. In addition to the permanent ICC, other, temporary United Nations courts have likewise failed to produce successes.\nHolding Commanders Responsible?\nThe Cambodia Tribunal, for example, a court established to try the individuals responsible for the Khmer Rouge genocide, is merely treading water. The International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY), by contrast, has managed to produce some convictions, but a judge at the United Nations war crimes tribunal in The Hague recently deplored the political pressure that allegedly led to the spectacular recent acquittals of senior Serbian and Croat officers. The judge said that the decisions called into question the principle that military commanders could be held responsible for war crimes committed by their subordinates. It is a concern that will soon be tested on Bosnian Serb general Ratko Mladic, with relatives of the Srebrenica massacre victims fearful that he will be set free.\nAt the ICC, prosecutor Bensouda is respectfully referred to as \"Big Mama,\" because of her big heart and her authority. She knows what is at stake in the Kenyatta case -- for her, for the court and for the concept of a global court.\nAs a little girl, Fatou Bensouda already had a clear idea of what her destiny was: She wanted to fight crime. She also knew how difficult that could be. In the early 1970s, she accompanied her aunt several times to a police station in Banjul, the capital of her native Gambia, in West Africa. The aunt's husband had beaten her repeatedly. But the police officers refused to investigate her complaints, because it was felt that the master of the house had every right to beat his wife. Such crimes were left unpunished. It was something that Bensouda felt had to change.\nAs a teenager, she always went to the courthouse after school, no matter what case the court happened to be hearing. She obsessively took notes and later discussed the cases with her mothers. Bensouda grew up in a polygamous Muslim household, in which her father had several wives.\nLater, when she was studying in Nigeria and Malta, she turned her attention to international law. A brilliant jurist, Bensouda was the first woman to become the attorney general, and later the justice minister, of Gambia. But conflict with the country's president, in a system that is democratic in name only, was inevitable. She resigned after two years and later began working for the UN, including a stint as a trial attorney at the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda, established to prosecute individuals responsible for the 1994 massacre there.\nA Symbol of Progress\nBensouda was named chief prosecutor in The Hague in June 2012. The same year, Time included her on its list of the world's 100 most influential people. She is seen as a symbol of African progress.\nNevertheless, it is becoming clear that her influence is greatly limited. When she indicts powerful people, like Kenya's president and vice-president, she is dealing with more than just the high-powered lawyers they hire. She also faces intimidation by those capable of manipulating public opinion in countries racked by civil war and turning it against a court that operates far away from the scenes of the crimes it addresses.\nThe ICC also lacks the support of some of the world's most powerful politicians. Although most countries have submitted to its jurisdiction, the United States and China never joined the ICC. Both Iran and Israel are also unwilling to relinquish a part of their judicial sovereignty.\nThe court began prosecuting crimes against humanity 11 years ago, but its track record has been deplorable. This is partly due to sloppy investigations and the arrogance of Bensouda's predecessor, Luis Moreno-Ocampo, who once said: \"We are changing the world, guys.\" So far, the ICC can boast of only one conviction, and that in a case relating to a second-tier defendant. In 2012, the ICC sentenced Congolese militia leader Thomas Lubanga to 14 years in prison for using child soldiers as cannon fodder. Arrest warrants have been issued against other butchers, like Sudanese President Omar al-Bashir and Ugandan warlord Joseph Kony -- but the men are still at large, because they are too important to be extradited.\nThe ICC is currently investigating eight cases, all of them in Africa -- a situation which has engendered criticism. The prosecution of crimes by the ICC has degenerated into \"race-baiting,\" Ethiopian Prime Minister Hailemariam Desalegn said at the African Union (AU) summit in Addis Ababa at the end of May. In a resolution, the leaders of AU member states demanded that the case against Kenyatta be dismissed and remitted to the courts in Nairobi.\nBensouda calls the attacks \"outrageous.\" Speaking with SPIEGEL, she pointed out that she herself is black and investigates cases without regard for skin color or nationality. \"It is indisputable that Africans are being raped, displaced, tortured and held as child slaves by other Africans. Are we supposed to ignore that?\"\nBesides, she added, the list of countries the ICC is currently focusing on also includes Afghanistan, Honduras and Georgia. \"What offends me most of all is how quickly many concentrate on the words of the powerful, forgetting the millions who have no voice. We investigate without distinction of person or political rank.\"\n\"Big Mama's\" staff members have rarely seen their boss looking as nervous as in recent days. Almost defiantly, as if to embolden herself, she says: \"We will bring Kenyatta to trial here in The Hague, and I am very optimistic that we will achieve a guilty verdict against him and his vice-president, William Ruto.\"\nBut despite Bensouda's optimism, Kenyatta continues to reside in an opulent mansion next to the State House, the president's official residence in the Kenyan capital of Nairobi. Kenyatta is the country's largest landowner and he also controls its largest bank, not to mention a major hotel chain.\nWith an estimated net worth of $500 million (\u0080378 million), Kenyatta is one of the 25 richest and most powerful men on the continent. Kenyan politics reflects the extent to which a handful of clans dominate the country. Fifty years ago, shortly after independence from Great Britain, a Kenyatta and an Odinga competed for power. In March 2013, nothing had changed except the first names of the contenders. The sons, Uhuru Kenyatta and Raila Odinga, had followed in the footsteps of their fathers, Jomo and Oginga.\nThe scourge of nepotism is compounded by ethnic division, in a country whose leaders are more likely to champion the interests of their tribes than ideologies or political platforms. They procure jobs and perks for their \"blood brothers\" and, if need be, they incite ethnic groups against one another, sometimes to the point of tribal wars.\nThe Kenyattas are part of the Kikuyu tribe, which makes up more than 20 percent of the population in Kenya and is the most economically successful ethnic group. Kenyatta did not run for the presidency in the December 2007 election, choosing to support Mwai Kibaki, a fellow Kikuyu, instead. After a highly disputed vote count, Kibaki was declared the winner and promptly sworn in. In the ensuing mayhem, members of the Kalenjin, Luhya and Luo tribes (US President Barack Obama's father was a member of the Luo tribe) exacted bloody revenge on the \"imposters.\" The Kikuyu then struck back.\nDivided by Hate\nBefore long, villages were fighting villages. In some \"mixed\" regions, it was street against street. It was only through the intervention of then UN Secretary General Kofi Annan that the situation settled down after a few weeks. But by the time the slaughter had ended, there were 1,100 dead with more than half a million people having been driven out of their home provinces. The country was divided by hate.\nAt the urging of a Kenyan judge, the ICC turned its attention to the instigators of the violence. In early 2012, the court in The Hague confirmed charges against Kenyatta and Ruto, his rival from the Kalenjin tribe. But can someone be locked up for this indirect form of culpability? And can prosecutors in the Netherlands prevail against men who are sufficiently cunning and unscrupulous to exploit racial hatred? In other words, can these crimes even be defined in legal terms? That is the existential question the ICC faces.\nWhen it became clear that the two men were to be dragged before the world court, Kenyatta and Ruto devised a clever strategy: They joined forces to form a political alliance of convenience, the Jubilee Alliance. Before long, without any aspects of the 2012 massacres having been cleared up, they began campaigning for election together.\nFor much of the campaign, it looked as they had little chance, with Odinga -- the opposing candidate and a member of the Luo tribe -- maintaining a solid lead. But then Johnnie Carson, head of the Africa division in the US State Department at the time, publicly threatened \"consequences\" if the Kenyans voted the two men, who had been indicted by the ICC, into the country's highest offices.\nThe threat provided Kenyatta with fodder for his campaign. From then on, whenever he made a campaign appearance he would ask his \"sovereign people\" whether they should allow foreign powers to dictate to them their choice of national leaders. Kenyatta turned the election into a fight against foreign intervention and the \"Western diktat.\" The overwhelming majority of Kenyans were unaware of the ironic fact that a London PR firm had developed the campaign strategy for Kenyatta -- and that British lawyers make up the bulk of his defense team for the ICC trial.\nKenyatta won an absolute majority, with 50.07 percent of the vote. Observers noted that voter turnout was implausibly high, at 86 percent. Rival candidate Odinga suspected fraud and took his case to the country's supreme court, but it turned a deaf ear to his petition challenging the election results.\nOf course, the West failed to make good on its threats to impose sanctions. Kenya's cooperation as a strategically important country in the fight against terrorism in Somalia and Sudan is too important to Washington, Paris and London, and they are also eager to prevent China from trumping the West in Nairobi. The new president has been self-confident recently, saying that he would cooperate with the ICC, submit to questioning by video link and, if necessary, even appear in person before the court in The Hague. His supporters refer to him as \"Njamba,\" or \"The Hero.\"\nIn The Hague, his adversary Bensouda says: \"We want the trial to begin as soon as possible. And we deeply appreciate the witnesses' courage and willingness to make sacrifices. Nowhere else have they come under such great pressure as in Kenya.\"\nMany witnesses live in the Great Rift Valley. The steep cliffs, which divide East Africa into two parts, open to form a kind of Garden of Eden, a landscape of volcanic cones, misty lakes and tropical vegetation that offers a habitat to rhinos, flamingos and myriad other forms of wildlife. Anthropologists see the region as a cradle of mankind. But in the first days of 2008, it was more of an Armageddon to residents in the Rift Valley towns of Nakuru and Naivasha.\nA Raging Mob\n\"We lived here in peace and good neighborly relations with the other tribes for a long time. We rented our house from a Kikuyu,\" says Monicah Akinyi, a Luo woman. Her eyes are dull, rendered lifeless by sadness and desperation. \"Then came the day when a raging mob of Kikuyu descended upon us with knives and machetes.\"\n\"I was pregnant at the time, awaiting our ninth child,\" says Akinyi, her voice faltering. \"My husband and I worked at one of the big farms that grow roses for export to Europe. Our children played with the Kikuyu children.\" As the menacing mob approached, Akinyi took the children and fled to the police station. Her husband tried to help some friends and rushed back to the house. But he didn't get far before assailants swooped down on him with knives, dozens of them stabbing him again and again.\nThe mob raged for days. Akinyi wasn't even able to recover her husband's body. She was left with nothing but a photo a journalist had taken of her husband's corpse. She later learned that similar acts of brutal violence had occurred in other Rift Valley towns, as well as along the coast. Who were the culprits? Can the chain of command in what were clearly actions controlled by others be traced to Kikuyu leader Kenyatta?\n\"Today I only live for my children,\" says Akinyi, who looks much older than her 37 years. She was pleased when she heard that a woman in a faraway country wanted to bring the culprits to trial. But now she no longer dares to hope. \"It all happened more than five years ago,\" says Akinyi. \"I think the world has forgotten ordinary victims like us.\"\nPhoto Gallery: Fatou Bensouda's Battle for Justice\nFrom the Archive: Ethnic Violence Overshadows Kenyan Campaign (12/13/2012)\nFrom the Archive: The ICC's Disappointing Track Record (12/14/2011)\nAnd there are many other 'leaders' that belong behind bars.\nItoka 07/27/2013\nI cannot even begin to point out all the wrong things about this article; from semantics, falsehoods, not to mention being lost in translation.

Well, since Bradley Manning and WikiLeaks leaked footage of US war crimes in Iraq we have a fairly good idea about Bush's motives to avoid recognition of the ICC. In fact, George W. himself would be a suitable candidate for the dock in the Hague for his lies to justify the war against Iraq despite the objections and contrary to the findings of the Blix commission on WMCs. But unfortunately, this unsavoury president and his neocon helpers like a lot of other war criminals enjoy their happy retirement while a great number of American war veterans are left out \"in the cold\" proving that the US' talk of human rights and freedom is a charade or applies only to the rich and mighty.\nemmettpeabody 07/29/2013\nI think what is amazing here is how distorted this piece is also, by placing a Black Female face to the court is to legitimize the witch hunt against Africans.

        "raw_content": "Home > Archive > Bobby Petrino Version 2.0\nBy Jason Sheehan \u2013\nThe University of Louisville football team has found their next head coach and they did not have to look very far. Tom Jurich announced the hiring of former Louisville head coach Bobby Petrino at Thursday\u2019s press conference. Petrino signed a 7 year contract worth 24.5 million dollars. The most significant aspect of the contract is the 10 million dollar buyout over the first four years.\nSocial media, news media, radio, etc. was running rampant on Monday and Tuesday of this week of the possibility of Petrino coming back to Louisville for his second stint as head coach. The rumors became a reality on Thursday.\nThe hiring of Petrino is seen as an extremely popular or equally unpopular decision. He served as Louisville\u2019s head coach from 2003 \u2013 2006 and led the program to a 41 \u2013 9 record and a BCS win in the 2006 Orange Bowl over Wake Forest.\nPetrino is known as an offensive genius which excited the Louisville fans during his first run with the Cardinals. His offenses at Louisville were regularly ranked in the top of the country in yardage and scoring. His 2004 team went 11 \u2013 1 and had seven games in which they scored more than 50 points including five straight towards the end of the season.\nUnfortunately, Petrino brings a great deal of baggage with him. Louisville fans are all too familiar with this baggage. Less than a week after the Cardinals defeated Wake Forest in the 2006 Orange Bowl Petrino accepted the head coaching position with the NFL\u2019s Atlanta Falcons. He was given a five year contract worth 24 million dollars. Making matters worse for Louisville fans was that in July of 2006 he had signed a 10 year contract worth 25.6 million dollars to remain the head coach at Louisville.\nLouisville fans had to deal with his constant flirtations with the next big job. He secretly interviewed for the Auburn job after only one season at Louisville. There were also secret meetings with LSU as well. He said all the right things to the media, but seemed to have door open any time a job came up.\nHe left the Atlanta Falcons after coaching only 13 games during his only season and accepted the coaching position at Arkansas. He was heavily criticized by a number of Atlanta\u2019s players for leaving in the middle of the season.\nPetrino was 34 \u2013 17 with the Razorbacks. However, his record at Arkansas is certainly not what he is remembered for. He is best known for the infamous motorcycle accident. He initially said he was alone, but later the police report showed he was riding with Jessica Dorrell, student-athlete development coordinator for the football program. It was later revealed he was carrying on an adulterous relationship with Dorrell which led to his firing.\nIt is now on to Bobby Petrino 2.0. What will it bring to the football Program? Can they keep the momentum going from the Charlie Strong era? Will he make this a destination job? Is he really a changed man? These questions and more are left to ponder as Petrino begins his second run.\nPetrino stood at the podium with his wife and children sitting to the side of him in front of a packed house of media members. Most of the questions were about trust, loyalty, and attitude. He told the audience \u201cI want everybody to know this is my destination job\u2026this is our home.\u201d He admitted that leaving Louisville the first time was his \u201cfirst mistake\u201d.\nThere will be plenty of skepticism not only among outsiders, but the Louisville fans themselves due to Petrino\u2019s checkered past. Petrino was asked how we will know he is a changed man. He simply responded by saying, \u201cOur motto will be show me.\u201d\nTom Jurich has taken a lot of heat for his hiring of Petrino. Many people are thinking with this hire he only cares about winning. Jurich spoke about the nine hour interview with Petrino. Jurich spoke with Petrino\u2019s wife about who the new Bobby Petrino is. He even spoke with the Atlantic Coast Conference commissioner John Swofford about hiring Petrino.\nTom Jurich is widely regarded as the best Athletic Director in the country by many people. He is certainly gambling with the hiring of Petrino. He put it best when he said, \u201cI would never put this school in harm\u2019s way.\u201d\nJurich wanted a coach that would continue the \u201cupward trajectory\u201d of the Louisville football program. Not one person will doubt the coaching ability of Petrino. There is no question he was the most qualified candidate out of those interviewed and the one to keep this program on the rise.\nI have heard others say the following about Petrino: \u2018once a liar always a liar\u2019 and \u2018once a cheater always a cheater\u2019. Petrino certainly has done nothing in his past to disprove these statements. However, in hearing these statements implies that Petrino cannot change from his previous ways. Maybe he will or maybe he won\u2019t. Who are we to judge Bobby Petrino?\nPetrino\u2019s past will never be forgotten. It is already written. Bobby Petrino 2.0 can distance himself from his past mistakes by now doing all the right things as he spoke today. Yes, winning is a cure for many things, but doing it the right with honor and integrity is the real key. Only time will tell if we will indeed see the new Bobby Petrino.",

        "raw_content": "I watched hundreds of motivational videos and listened to countless motivational speeches, and many of them have helped to get me fired up to take action. But for some reason, none of them have had quite the same affect on me as this one did.\nThere is something raw and real about what Marc Megna is saying in this video that really got to me. Maybe it was because he is talking about his own actual experiences, rather than just some imaginary idea. Perhaps I'm just at a point in my life where this message held greater significance for me. For whatever reason I was tearing up by the end of watching it. It's a powerful video... I hope you draw something positive from it as well:\nI think part of what I really like about this message is that it helps me to see that challenges I face as opportunities to grow, rather than something to avoid or feel sorry for myself about. I've taken on a lot of new projects this year and I've faced a few obstacles, as I think most of us have, and it's easy to feel overwhelmed and to start saying \"why me?\". But isn't it more productive to embrace these challenges and face them head on? I believe it is.\nThe idea isn't that we should pursue \"pain\", or look for struggles in life, but rather that we shouldn't shy away from it either. We can overcome that pain. We can learn from our struggles. We will grow from it... and the bigger we get, the smaller our problems will seem. Be grateful for the opportunity to become a stronger person... to grow into your greatness.\nRemember these quotes:\n\"We are made strong by what we overcome.\"\n\"Whatever does not kill you will make you stronger.\"\n\"Don't pray for an easy life... pray to be a stronger person.\"\n\"Without pain there is no gain. Without pain there is no glory.\"\nAfter you watch it I'd appreciate hearing from you... can you relate to it? What did you get from it?

        "raw_content": "Posted on 02/8/2019 16:44 PM (USCCB News Releases)\nWASHINGTON\u2013On February 7, 2019, the State of Alabama executed Domineque Ray, a Muslim man whose request to have an imam present at his execution was denied by the U.S. Supreme Court by a vote of 5-4. Archbishop Joseph E. Kurtz of Louisville, Chairman of the USCCB Committee for Religious Liberty, and Bishop Frank J. Dewane of Venice, Chairman of the Committee on Domestic Justice and Human Development, have issued a statement, which reads:\n\u201cThe execution of Domineque Ray deeply troubles us. The death penalty itself is an affront to human dignity, and the Church has long called for its abolition in the United States and around the world. Mr. Ray bore the further indignity of being refused spiritual care in his last moments of life, in violation of the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution and Alabama law. This unjust treatment is disturbing to people of all faiths, whether Muslim, Christian, Jewish, or otherwise. People deserve to be accompanied in death by someone who shares their faith. It is especially important that we respect this right for religious minorities. As Pope Francis said during his recent trip to the United Arab Emirates, \u2018What we are called to do as believers is to commit ourselves to the equal dignity of all.\u2019 Let us make this commitment today.\u201d\nKeywords: Archbishop Joseph Kurtz, Bishop Frank Dewane, USCCB, Domineque Ray, Supreme Court, death penalty, religious liberty, religious freedom, First Amendment, U.S. Constitution\nWASHINGTON\u2013Late yesterday, the U.S. Supreme Court temporarily blocked Louisiana from implementing a law requiring doctors at abortion facilities to obtain admitting privileges at local hospitals. The Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals had previously ruled in favor of the Louisiana law. While the petition on the merits of the law has yet to be filed and ruled upon by the Supreme Court, it ruled 5-4 on an application for a stay in the case of June Medical Services, LLC v. Gee.\n\u201cThe fact that abortionists and their facilities cannot or will not meet basic health standards exposes the lie of their clever slogan that abortion is health care. The abortion industry\u2019s objection to such a reasonable law, and this Court\u2019s decision to temporarily prevent it from going into effect, is further evidence of how abortion extremism actively works against the welfare of women.\n\u201cRegardless of this disappointing ruling, the pro-life movement will continue to work and pray for the day when every legislature and court recognizes the brutal injustice of abortion\u2014to women and their children alike\u2014and our society sees abortion as unthinkable.\u201d\nWASHINGTON\u2014H.E. Cardinal Blase J. Cupich, Archbishop of Chicago and Most Rev. Joseph C. Bambera, Bishop of Scranton, PA issued the following statement:\n\u201cIn our increasingly hostile world in which violence too often predominates between Christians and Muslims\u2014violence that has led to tragic consequences for the most vulnerable humans\u2014we welcome with great joy this historic joint statement on human fraternity by Pope Francis and the Grand Imam of Al-Azhar, Ahmad Al-Tayyeb. The statement, which represents the culmination of the first papal visit to the Arabian Peninsula and marks the occasion of the 800th anniversary of the encounter between St. Francis of Assisi and Sultan al-Malik al-Kamil in Egypt, is a clarion call for robust dialogue that leads to peace. We commend it to all people of good will, especially leaders of nations and religious groups, in the hope that it might serve as a resource to overcome division through a renewed commitment to dialogue and the establishment of goodwill.\u201d\nKeywords: United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, USCCB, Cardinal Blase J.

Broglio, Archbishop for the Military Services USA and Chairman of the U.S. Bishops\u2019 Committee on International Justice and Peace has issued the following statement expressing solidarity with the Bishops\u2019 of Venezuela.\nThe Archbishop\u2019s full statement follows:\n\u201cOn behalf of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, I express our solidarity with the Bishops of Venezuela, and with all those working for a peaceful and just resolution to the crisis there. The humanitarian situation is dire. Severe malnutrition and death from treatable illnesses afflict a growing number of Venezuelans.\nI am grateful for the United States Government\u2019s pledge to provide desperately needed humanitarian assistance to Venezuelans. I urge the administration to help facilitate the provisioning of humanitarian assistance, and, where necessary, help coordinate safe migration options, in order to avoid more suffering. The Church in Venezuela, as its bishops stated on February 4th, acts \u2018according to principles of independence, impartiality, and humanity,\u2019 and stands ready to help distribute assistance justly and equitably.\nMay Our Lady of Coromoto, Patroness of Venezuela, watch over all Venezuelans as they strive for peace and prosperity in their country.\u201d\nKeywords: United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, USCCB, Archbishop Timothy P.

        "raw_content": "Renovation projects, wisely chosen, can enhance the value of a home and provide a healthy return on investment.\nAccording to the Appraisal Institute of Canada, the most profitable home renovations are kitchens and bathrooms, which generally result in a return on investment (ROI) of 75 to 100 per cent.\nAn interior paint job offers 50 to 100 per cent ROI, and a finished basement recovers 50 to 75 per cent of the original cost when the property is sold.\nThe lowest returns (between zero and 25 per cent) are realized for in-ground pools and skylights.\nThe top ten renovation plans among Canadian homeowners, according to a recent Bank of Montreal survey, revealed the following:\n\u2022 Nearly half of homeowners surveyed plan to renovate their kitchens and bathrooms (48 per cent and 46 per cent respectively).\n\u2022 More than one third are planning to undertake exterior renovations (36 per cent), landscaping projects (39 per cent), or basement renovations (38 per cent).\n\u2022 Fewer homeowners are planning renovations to bedrooms (25 per cent), family rooms (21 per cent), dining rooms (11 per cent), home additions (7 per cent), or pools (2 per cent).\nFor further information on savvy renovating for resale, check out this CIBC article:",

        "raw_content": "OpenCue logo\nGoogle Cloud and Sony have joined forces on the launch of OpenCue, a new open-source render manager for VFX and animation.\nGoogle said OpenCue is based on Cue 3, the internal queuing system developed at Sony Pictures Imageworks over the last 15 years. At Sony, the system has been scaled to over 150,000 cores shared between Sony\u2019s own on-premise data center and Google Cloud Platform (GCP) for recent projects. With additional development by GCP, the system has been open-sourced and renamed OpenCue.\n\u201cSony\u2019s strong history of developing software tools has made this an ideal partnership,\u201d said Todd Prives, GCP product manager, media & entertainment, in a blog post announcing the OpenCue release. \u201cSony has developed and contributed to industry standard software packages such as OpenColorIO and Alembic, which are now critical pieces in the pipeline of hundreds of studios worldwide for the daily creation of content that we view on all devices, be it at the movies, on television or on mobile devices.\u201d\nThis diagram from the OpenCue wiki shows how various components interact in a large-scale deployment.\nOpenCue incorporates a number of widely used open-source technologies, such as the Python programming language and the Postgres relational database. The main components include Cuebot, a management utility that can run in the background on a workstation or in a server cluster for higher availability; CueGUI, a graphical user interface for monitoring and managing jobs; CueSubmit, a PySide2 app for submitting render jobs that can run as a plug-in for applications including Autodesk Maya and Foundry Nuke; and RQD, a software daemon required on all OpenCue rendering hosts.\nPer the documentation, native multithreading supports Katana, RenderMan and Arnold.\nOpenCue\u2019s source code and executables are now available in a GitHub repository, along with a wiki containing documentation and links to (as-yet-unused) mailing lists for users and developers. Tutorials and sample projects are coming soon, Prives wrote.\nOpenCue on GitHub: github.com",

        "raw_content": "Singers Let Loose\nMonday, November 17, 2003; Page C09\nThe Afghan Whigs never quite fit into the early \u201990s Sub Pop explosion. For one thing, frontman Greg Dulli was too flashy for flannel, too kitschy for angst; if Kurt Cobain was the Vincent van Gogh of grunge, Dulli was its Dean Martin. Who else among his celebrity-shy contemporaries could say they\u2019d been body-checked by Tony Curtis during a tequila-fueled Easter egg hunt hosted by the late Dodi Fayed? Certainly not Eddie Vedder. When the Afghan Whigs disbanded, Dulli retreated to the bar he owns in Los Angeles. But Dulli was born for the stage, and he finally resurrected the Twilight Singers, which he first formed as a funk- and soul-inflected side project in the late 1990s.\nThe Twilight Singers recently released their sophomore full-length, \u201cBlackberry Belle,\u201d and Friday at the Black Cat they treated the crowd to a freewheeling set that combined loose-as-a-goose covers (or fragments thereof) of songs by Marvin Gaye, Fleetwood Mac, Kate Bush, John Coltrane and Tom Jones with plenty of sharp-edged originals, including a mordant \u201cMartin Eden\u201d that Dulli dedicated to Elliott Smith. \u201cPapillon\u201d and \u201cEsta Noche\u201d featured marvelously crunchy guitar by Jon Skibic; the let\u2019s-stay-up-all-night anthem \u201cTeenage Wristband\u201d cleverly toyed with Pete Townshend\u2019s synthesizer intro to \u201cTeenage Wasteland.\u201d\nIf the show had a downside, it stemmed from Dulli\u2019s tendency toward extended monologues. He is clearly a man in love with the sound of his own voice. But he didn\u2019t mind handing lead vocals over to the crowd, at one point telling it, \u201cI\u2019ll put you up against those Dashboard Confessional punks any day.\u201d\nReally \u2014 who needs emo when you have Tom Jones?",

        "raw_content": "Aiken Training Sessions and Pine Top\nI rode Inmidair (JR) in the training sessions with David. We got lucky with the weather and were able to at least ride two of the three scheduled days. David is all about going back to the basics, making sure that you have a half-halt and can change pace when you change your hips, or can half-halt and not change pace, whichever you\u2019re trying to achieve. With JR I always have to make sure that when I go forward, I\u2019m able to put him over his neck, or deeper than I think I should, so that he thinks about staying on the bit instead of above it and getting a bit wild. Even though I haven\u2019t been working JR the way David wanted me to that day, it was a great exercise to get me out of my own box and test the parameters of where my half halt really is. The last ten minutes of work was amazing. I came away with good food for thought, and though I haven\u2019t quite achieved the same results since then, I\u2019m looking forward to doing more on the flat with David.\nThe jump lesson was again back to basics. We worked on making sure that I can have enough pace going in to be settled at the jump. JR is so careful and David helped me to stay softer in my seat than I want and trust that he won\u2019t have a front rail down by staying over him in the air. JR, as most of you know, has his own unique style, but if I remember to ride him as David taught\u2014and I can stay on him\u2014his jump is amazing!\nThank you so much to Stable View for hosting the training sessions at your beautiful facility. It was also nice to work with two of the three vets that are helping the team, Dr. Mark Revenaugh and Dr. Susan Johns. We have a good system in place, with David as coach, Joanie as his brains and right arm, and fantastic vets.\nWe finally had out first competition of the year at Pine Top. I scratched Syd because we\u2019ve been trying to figure out a crack in his foot. After a meeting of the minds between farriers Sean Crocker and Steve Teachman, Syd\u2019s foot was patched up for support and I\u2019m happy to have him good to go, hopefully for the rest of the season. We\u2019re over the hump at this point with the crack that originated from an injury at Millbrook last summer.\nI did get to run JR at Pine Top, and he was so fun! He was fifth after a nice dressage test, show jumped great on his part (I could still be a bit better staying with him in the air), and really fun to ride cross-country. I was completely surprised to win, though, as it was our first time out since Fair Hill and I was just trying to have a good go with him!\nThe young horses, Duke of Diamond and RF Luminati, did their first event of the season at Pine Top, too. It\u2019s nice to have Luminati back and he was completely respectable. You can tell I\u2019ve only ridden him about six months, even though I\u2019ve had him over a year. I need to get him a bit more broke and add some more tools, but he\u2019s such a good jumper and mover and a pleasure to ride. Duke of Diamond, who we were calling Dyson and is now being called \u201cDukey\u201d in the barn, didn\u2019t disappoint as my old lady horse. He\u2019s so great to ride and put in a nice flowing test. He may be the most broke horse in the barn even though he\u2019s one of the youngest! His show jumping was good but unfortunately I had a rail\u2014he didn\u2019t\u2014because I added in a line. I also misjudged the time cross-county, and though he jumped beautifully we had some time.\nIt was really fun to watch Maya Black compete her horse, Doesn\u2019t Play Fair. Mark my words, that combination is going to go far in this sport. He\u2019s tiny but can really move and jump. Caitlin Calder also had great weekend on Jolliyat. We were so lucky to have my Mom here visiting and to help groom and support. It\u2019s nice to have the A team!\nI\u2019ve never ridden in such nice weather at Pine Top\u2014there must be something wrong with the atmosphere... I\u2019m so excited for the next outing there, where I\u2019ll have all four horses\u2014Dukey will move up to Preliminary, JR will be in the Advanced, I might run Syd in the Intermediate for his first outing, and I\u2019m giving Luminati some time to get fit and will do a couple more Preliminaries with him before moving back to Intermediate. I feel lucky to have four horses to ride; sometimes you need that many to have one!",

A storywonk post that seems to have been lost to the internet (or my google-fu) once talked about how the type of books you read has to do with the type of justice you want.

The initiative has the dual goal of promoting motorsport and proving the capability of Tata Motors' vehicles in a rigorous, competitive environment. Full Throttle will function as an umbrella brand, competing in existing rallies and races as well as organising its own off-road and motorport activities.\nAt the time of Full Throttle's conception, Mr. R. Ramakrishnan, Vice President, Commercial- Passenger Car Business Unit, Tata Motors, noted that \"with best in class technologies in our product range, we will now be able to showcase these technologies through Tata Motors Full Throttle. The platform will help the company in organising and synergising all efforts and activities in the area of motorsports including development and testing.\"\nIn 2011, Team Full Throttle began its journey by participating and attaining top positions in the 3 most reputed rallies in India: Desert Storm, Dakshin Dare and Raid De Himalaya. They further continued with their winning streak in Eastern Mountain Safari rally and the Hornbill International Motor rally. These rallies have helped Tata Motors test its leading technology and reliability. And they plan to continue improving the same by participating in more rallies across the world.\nIn 2012, Tata Motors Full Throttle launched a series of driving experiences for owners of Tata utility vehicles. These experiences titled the Himalayan Experience, Konkan Experience, Jungle Experience, Thar Experience, Kutch Experience and Nilgiri Experience span the best drives across diverse terrains that are unique to India. Participants in these expeditions will experience the breathtaking beauty of these drives and the capability of their vehicles with logistical, medical and service support from Tata Motors.\nMotorsport is universally recognized as one of the most technologically-advanced, challenging and exciting competitive activities; it is also one of the most widely followed sports in the world. As a leading automotive company, it is in Tata Motors' natural interest to participate in motorsport, and to educate and promote motorsport in India. To this end, Full Throttle aims to provide a platform for motorsport enthusiasts to learn about, discuss and experience the thrill of motorsport.\nTata Motors Limited is India's largest automobile company, with consolidated revenues of Rs.123,133 crores (USD 27 billion) in 2010-11. It is the leader in commercial vehicles in each segment, and among the top three in passenger vehicles with winning products in the compact, midsize car and utility vehicle segments. The Company is the world's fourth largest truck manufacturer, and the world's third largest bus manufacturer. Over 5.9 million Tata vehicles ply on Indian roads, since the first rolled out in 1954.\nTata Motors launched its first indigenous passenger car in 1991, and since then has gone from strength to strength. The foundation of the Company's growth over the last 50 years is a deep understanding of economic stimuli and customer needs, and the ability to translate them into customer-desired offerings through cutting edge R&D.

        "title": "Baby Peggy Profile",
        "raw_content": "Baby Peggy Profile\nShe was the screen's third great child star, following in the footsteps of Baby Marie and making her film debut in Her Circus Man (1921) just two months after Jackie Coogan shot to stardom co-starring with Charlie Chaplin in The Kid (1921). Like Coogan, she reached adulthood only to discover that her family had frittered away the copious earnings of her junior years. Where Coogan came back in the '60s as a character actor, however, Peggy, now calling herself Diana Serra Cary, emerged as a respected author and film historian, drawing on her memories of child stardom and Hollywood life for a series of film history books that proved the child star had finally become her own woman.\nPeggy-Jean Montgomery was the child of a professional cowboy who moved his family to Hollywood, where he worked as a stuntman, extra and double for Tom Mix. When she was only 19 months old, she accompanied her mother and a film-extra friend on a visit to Century Studios, where she caught the eye of director Fred Fishbach. He was so impressed with her demeanor and good behavior he cast her in some of the studio's comedy shorts, including appearances opposite their reigning canine star, Brownie the Wonder Dog.\nWith the success of her first film with Brownie, Playmates (1921), the studio put her under contract. Eventually, she moved to top billing in her films with Brownie before moving on to star billing on her own. Ultimately, Peggy would make more than 150 shorts for Century, most shot on low budgets and made in only five days. Even on a budget, the studio was willing to invest more in her pictures. For Peg o' the Mounted (1924), a comic take on the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, the studio did location shooting in Yosemite Valley, standing in for the Yukon.\nMost of her shorts fell within one of two formulas. Her films either depicted the adventures of Peggy as a plucky, uninhibited tyke or parodied popular genres and stars, trading on the novelty of putting the child in sexual situations or showing her in glamorous costumes modeled on those of Pola Negri, Mary Pickford and Mae Murray. In Carmen Jr. (1924), for example, she spoofs the conventions of the Latin romance, dancing a tango (in a costume modeled on one of Negri's) and eventually taking part in an uproarious bullfight. In addition, she did occasional adaptations of popular fairy tales like Little Red Riding Hood (1922) and Hansel and Gretel (1923).\nAs delightful as her on-screen image was, however, the working conditions for child actors at the time were always harsh and often dangerous. She usually worked eight-hour days, six days a week, with no time off for education. She also had to perform her own stunts, which frequently put her life in danger. She was held underwater so long filming Sea Shore Shapes (1921) that she fainted, while she had to escape from a burning building, which really had been set on fire, in The Darling of New York (1923). Of course, conditions were harsh for everyone making movies in the days before union protections. While filming a storm sequence for Captain January (1924), director Edward F. Cline and leading man Hobart Bosworth were almost killed.\nPeggy's popularity was second only to Coogan's. At her height, she received more than 1.2 million fan letters. In 1923, Universal lured her away from Century Studios with the chance to make features for $1.5 million per year, earning her the nickname \"The Million-Dollar Baby.\" Coogan's star was waning as he grew older, and the studio hoped she would take his place at the box office. She made her feature debut there in The Darling of New York. Gone were the days of low-budgets. Her films at Universal were classified as \"Universal Jewels,\" the studio's top A pictures. In addition, she made two features for independent producer Sol Lesser, who was lucky enough to make her most popular film, Captain January.\nTo promote these new, big-budget features Peggy began appearing in vaudeville, performing skits and doing musical numbers. She was even named mascot of the 1924 Democratic Convention in New York, where she got to wave a flag while standing next to future president Franklin D. Roosevelt. The studio sold her image for the marketing of dolls, jewelry and other products. When Peggy met Judy Garland years later, she discovered that her success had inspired Garland's mother to pursue stardom for her daughter.\nBut as high as her star rose, it fell suddenly in 1925, when her father and Lesser had a disagreement over her salary. Not only did the producer fire her, but he also had her blackballed throughout Hollywood. She made only one more silent, playing a small role in the low-budget 1926 film April Fool. Through the end of the decade, she was still able to capitalize on her fame in vaudeville, drawing $300 a day for stage appearances. By 1929, when she was 11, she was so exhausted the family decided to take some time off from touring. With the stock market crash, however, what few investments her parents had made were wiped out. There was no other money on hand, because her parents had spent most of her earnings -- over $2 million. The rest was lost to an unscrupulous business manager. Cary's situation would later help inspire the Coogan Bill, passed to protect the money earned by children in the entertainment business.\nAn attempt at farming in Wyoming did little to help their finances, and the family scraped together enough money to get back to Hollywood. There, an attempted comeback in talking films failed, and Peggy eventually moved into extra work along with the rest of the family. By mid-decade, she was so broke her father sold the rights to Captain January to 20th Century-Fox for $500 so the studio could make the 1936 version starring Shirley Temple. After extra work in Having Wonderful Time (1938), Peggy gave up the screen for good. The same year, she married actor Gordon Ayres, mainly in a bid for independence from her parents. They divorced ten years later. After almost suffering nervous breakdown, she started a new career as a freelance writer. She finally found happiness when she married Bob Cary in 1954. They had one son, Mark.\nIn later years, Peggy adopted a new name, Diana Serra Cary, and began writing about the Hollywood she had known as a child, starting with Hollywood's Children: An Inside Account of the Child Star Era (1979). She followed with an account of the early days of Western films, in which her father had participated, The Hollywood Posse: The Story of a Gallant Band of Horsemen who Made Movie History (1996). The same year, she published her memoirs, What Ever Happened to Baby Peggy: The Autobiography of Hollywood's Pioneer Child Star (1996), followed by Jackie Coogan: The World's Boy King: A Biography of Hollywood's Legendary Child Star (2007). She also began making public and media appearances to discuss her years as a child star and advocating for new laws to protect younger performers.\nMost of Peggy's films have been lost, with the greatest blow being a fire that burned down Century Studios in 1926, destroying almost all of her silent shorts. In recent years, complete prints of a handful of shorts and features have been discovered in archives around the world and restored, giving audiences a chance to rediscover one of the screen's first great child stars. In addition, she was the subject of the 2012 documentary Baby Peggy: The Elephant in the Room. Serra continues a popular figure at film revivals, where she is in demand as one of the last three surviving silent stars, with Mickey Rooney and Carla Laemmle.\nTurner Classic Movies is proud to salute Baby Peggy in December with the documentary Baby Peggy: The Elephant in the Room (2012) and four rarely seen films: Carmen Jr. (1923), Peg o' the Mounted, Captain January and Such Is Life ( all 1924).\nBaby Peggy: The Elephant in the Room\nCarmen Jr.\nPeg O' the Mounted\nOriginally released in 1924.

        "raw_content": "In 1824, French physicist Sadi Carnot, in his \u201cOn the Motive Power of Fire\u201d, was the first to study the thermodynamics of combustion reactions in steam engines. In the 1850s, German physicist Rudolf Clausius began to apply the principles developed by Carnot to chemicals systems at the atomic to molecular scale. During the years 1873 to 1876 at Yale University, American mathematical physicist Josiah Willard Gibbs, the first to be awarded a Ph.D. in engineering in the U.S., in a series of three papers, developed a mathematicalbased, graphical methodology, for the study of chemical systems using the thermodynamics of Clausius. In 1882, German physicist Hermann von Helmholtz, published a founding thermodynamics paper, similar to Gibbs, but with more of an electro-chemical basis, in which he showed that measure of chemical affinity, i.e. the \u201cforce\u201d of chemical reactions, is determined by the measure of the free energy of the reaction process. Following these early developments, the new science of chemical engineering began to develop.

        "raw_content": "When I was working, I learned about \u201cskinny\u201d words and \u201cfat\u201d words. Fat words have multiple meanings and are stuffed with connotations, making them subject to many different interpretations. Skinny words are direct, concrete, and specific. A fundamental concept of leadership is that, when giving direction, it is better to use skinny words. They tend to reduce confusion and are more likely to result in the desired outcome.\nNow that I am writing a blog and not managing people, I am less interested in reaching a specific desired outcome. I\u2019m more interested in suggesting ideas and stimulating thought. I\u2019m renewing my relationship with words of all body types. I find that, when used deliberately, fat words can be evocative and effective.\n\u201cHeart\u201d is one of those delightfully pudgy words. It just about explodes with meaning, memory, and feeling for most of us. We can easily identify many meanings for \u201cheart.\u201d I\u2019d like to explore just a few of them on this Valentine\u2019s Day.\nFirst, we have the most literal meaning of the word. Our hearts keep our bodies going. They pump our life\u2019s blood to the farthest reaches of our physical beings so that all our necessary organs have the energy to do their vital jobs. Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the United States. We do cardio exercise to reduce our risk. We scan the grocery store shelves looking for foods high in antioxidants to strengthen our hearts. We try to embrace low fat diets to minimize those pesky plaque deposits that can creep into our hearts\u2019 highways through the body. Does it strike anyone else that it is pretty ironic that rich, high fat chocolates come in heart-shaped boxes? Of course, heart-shaped\u2026. isn\u2019t. Actually, the heart is shaped more like a fist, which, when I really think about it, is a bit disconcerting.\nThe beleaguered baseball players in the play Damn Yankees tell us ya gotta have heart. Miles and miles of it. I don\u2019t know if we need miles and miles of it, but it is clearly true that a body needs a heart, in the most literal sense. Without that vital organ pumping away inside my chest, I have no life. On the other hand, without heart, I may have a life, but I may not be really living it. The heart about which our musical friends are belting is determination, persistence in the face of adversity, grace under pressure, and courage. Heart is what makes us root for the underdog. Heart is what enables us to do the things we believe we must do even when they seem impossible.\nWhich brings us to the \u201cheart\u201d metaphor most associated with Valentine\u2019s Day- love. Heart means romance, but also love of all kinds. At this time of year, pink, red, and white hearts scatter all over everything. Flower and jewelry sales skyrocket. There is a certain pressure to put love on a pedestal and admire it from afar. In reality, though heartfelt love is up close and personal. It is a participation, not a spectator, sport.\nA loving heart often requires deliberate decision making about what actions we take in life. When we decide to live a life of heartfelt love, we are deciding to view everything that happens to us and everyone we encounter through a lens of love. Love is not rationed. Loving one person does not reduce our capacity to love others. In fact, it increases it. Exercising our love muscles strengthens our ability to love, just as cardio exercise strengthens our literal heart muscles. As we become more adept at loving, we won\u2019t love everybody the same way but we will love everybody better. Love involves both giving and receiving. It isn\u2019t always easy or comfortable to do either. Sometimes, it almost seems impossible. To live with a heart full of love is the most beautiful way to live. That sort of life is as filled with meaning as that lusciously chubby \u201cheart\u201d word itself.\u201d Living a life with a heartful of love is not for the faint-hearted. It requires that other kind of heart\u2026 the Damn Yankees kind of heart.\nHave a Happy Heart Day, both literally and figuratively. At the heart of the matter, I wish you health, courage, and love. Oh, and have one or two of those rich, high fat chocolates that come in the heart-shaped box. Maybe just stick to the dark chocolate ones, though. All those antioxidants, you know!\nI do realize that Valentine\u2019s Day was actually yesterday\u2026. but don\u2019t you think today is still a great day to think about what is in our hearts? Now it\u2019s your turn! What do you think of when you hear the word \u201cheart?\u201d Please share your perspective by leaving a comment. In the alternative, you can send me an email at terriretirement@gmail.com.\nHave a heart-y day!\nAuthor TerriPosted on February 15, 2017 Tags courage, health, heart, Valentine's Day\n5 thoughts on \u201cHappy Heart Day\u201d\nI have two friends who are dealing with cardiac issues, one who has the most generously loving heart. A neighbor recently experienced a cardiac episode that causes the heart to literally twist and obviously impair function, a condition commonly known as \u201cbroken heart syndrome\u201d. So I immediately think of the physiological function of the heart as an organ in our amazing human body. I think of its physical function, its powerful muscle coordinating to pump life-giving blood through the body; I think of the chemical reactions that must take place to make that happen and the electrical stimulus that coordinates the pumping action. And I think of the emotion at the heart center, the heart of the matter? And its huge capacity to love and be loved or not.\nThanks for the great comment, Mona! I never knew that a \u201cbroken heart\u201d was a real, literal thing. I hope your friends and neighbor recover well and are back to using their hearts for their literal and figurative purposes very soon!\nI had never heard of skinny and fat words, but I love how you demonstrated the richness of the \u201cfat\u201d word \u201cheart.\u201d\u2026\u2026 so many layers of meaning. You and Mona sure wrote beautifully about love too. It reminds me of a quote from Eric Jong about dogs. \u201cDogs come into our lives to teach us about love and loyalty. They depart to teach us about loss. A new dog never replaces an old one; it merely expands the heart. If you have loved many dogs, your heart is very big.\u201d\nI agree the more we love, the more the heart expands.\nOh, Joy\u2026. don\u2019t get me started on the dog thing. We lost our furbaby about ten years ago and we still watch a home video or look at pictures of her every Monday night. There At some point, I\u2019m going to be posting a piece called \u201cTo Dog or Not To Dog.\u201d I love the quote. It gives me another layer to consider in my musing over whether or not to find another dog to love.\nWe lost my \u201csoul\u201d dog Anna 3 years ago. We did therapy dog work with her at an adolescent psychiatric unit, as well as a unit for the elderly. She was so very good to all, so unjudgemental. She really taught me a lot about acceptance. I can\u2019t even describe the level of heartbreak I felt then and still feel, when I think about her and hear certain songs. But now we have a wonderful dog, Oliver\u2026.same loving breed: Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. He too is very attached to us and is happy going anywhere with us. We don\u2019t do therapy with him, but really enjoy taking training classes with him. It\u2019s very positive, no punishment. We reward for the behaviors we\u2019re looking for. Mostly, I enjoy being with the other people in the dog club and enjoy Oliver\u2019s quick learning. So,as for \u201cto dog or not to dog,\u201d I can say our hearts are bigger with Oliver in our lives. I hope you will consider getting another, if you are ready.\nNext Next post: The Worst Day Of My Life",

        "raw_content": "I learned a lot of good stuff while I was working. I figured most of it would immediately become moot the day I retired. That assumption is probably correct, but I\u2019ve found I actually did learn some transferable skills.\nRecently, I\u2019ve been struggling to fight my way through the administrative jungle involved in applying for financial aid to help with my mother\u2019s care. After hiring one law firm to help, I quickly realized that my own background provided a much better machete for slicing my way through the undergrowth. For several months, I fought through vines and branches of internet research on my own, trying to understand the eligibility and documentation requirements. I spent a lot of energy wandering around in useless circles without clearing much of the jungle out of my way.\nIt was exhausting, but even inefficient persistent activity can sometimes result in progress. Using the experience and education I amassed during a 30 plus year career in bureaucracy as a basis for my analysis, I slowly began to understand what was going to be necessary and how to ask the right questions. A kind stranger also gave me a referral to a specialty law firm. That law firm helped me trade in my blunted, bedraggled machete for an earthmover. Working with the staff of the new law firm, I was able to work more methodically and spend my energy on the activities that were going to matter. Rather quickly, I was able to see some light at the other end of the jungle. I\u2019m still whacking away at low-lying branches, but I\u2019m getting there.\nDuring that process, I met with the office manager of the law firm. She did the initial interview, pointed me in the right documentation-gathering direction, and assigned a caseworker to help me. In our conversation, she asked what I did for a living before I retired. When I explained the progression of my career and what my role was when I stopped working for a living, she offered me a job in her office. I could kind of see her thought process. My career was actually very similar to the kind of work her office does. On the other hand, her offer stunned me.\nI never contemplated working after I retired. That was never part of the plan. While I was still in my job, people used to talk about how well I could do if I went into private practice when I retired. I reacted to those comments with complete bafflement. What would be the point of retiring if I was going to keep working? In my mind, I would just keep my steady job with a nice income and benefits if I wanted to work for a living.\nYes, I understood that some people liked the idea of having their own business and being their own boss, but it always just sounded like a lot of extra trouble to me. Yes, I understood that some people think they can reduce their hours and stress when they work after retirement. I\u2019m not sure I buy it, especially for someone like me. I believe God gives us all talents and expects us to develop them. My talent happens to be worrying. I have spent a lifetime learning to excel at it. I\u2019m not sure it matters how few hours I work. I would be wor\u201dry\u201dking full time. Yes, I understood that some people are passionate about their work and can\u2019t imagine giving it up completely. I can almost get behind that argument. If there was some opportunity to get paid for working at some passion of mine, I might concede. But battling bureaucracy? I don\u2019t think that\u2019s anyone\u2019s idea of passion.\nStill, when the office manager asked me about coming to work for the law firm, my first impulse was to try to figure out a way to make it work. My brain immediately stumbled over obstacles to device possible strategies that would allow me to work at a job (that I didn\u2019t even want) while also taking care of my mother, doing the tasks necessary to keep my household running smoothly, writing the blog, maintaining my relationships, and trying to have some sort of fun in my \u201cspare time.\u201d\nI think this process reveals a congenital defect in my reasoning ability. At some point very early on in my life, I somehow bought into a pretty basic fallacy. If someone asks me to do something, it must make sense for me to do it. I spent a good deal of my career attempting to fulfill that fallacy. I often didn\u2019t consider whether I actually wanted to do a particular job or assignment or even if it was feasible for me to do it. I figured that, if someone was asking me to do it, it must be possible and it must be a good idea for me to do it. I\u2019m not saying that this was always a bad thing. In fact, following other people\u2019s plans for how I should spend my time and energy was a good thing in some ways. If I had stopped to consult my own preferences, I might have passed up some opportunities I ultimately enjoyed and from which I profited. It is sometimes easier to stretch your capabilities when someone else is pushing you than when you try to expand your horizons under your own power. Still, there were also other \u201copportunities\u201d that would have been better left untapped\u2026 at least by me\u2026 and I would not have been tapping them if left to my own devices.\nThis time, though, when the office manager offered me the job, I managed to stop myself before agreeing. I let myself live in an awkward pause while I did not immediately reply to her suggestion. During that time, I am sure my face did express a certain degree of horror at the whole idea. Initially, the office manager thought I didn\u2019t realize she was serious. She started reassuring me that the offer was real. She extolled the virtues of the position. I was still not responding. She got the idea that I was either dimwitted or just not interested. She looked kind of embarrassed and unsure of how to extricate herself from this particular line of conversation. My mind unfroze and I bailed her out, explaining that I just didn\u2019t see how I could take on anything else while caring for my mother. The office manager seemed happy to let the matter go, but did mention that I should call her when I \u201cgot bored.\u201d\nI\u2019m not bored and I don\u2019t foresee myself getting bored. On the other hand, part of my mind still keeps revisiting that job offer. It was heartening to have someone validate my value on the job market. I felt kind of sassy and swaggery. The whole exchange was very flattering. I think part of me has always kind of felt that most of my success in my career was due to simple longevity. The fact that someone wanted to hire me for a professional position to do something new and different makes me think that maybe there was at least some actual talent fueling my career success.\nI haven\u2019t done anything mad like calling back and asking for the job. The bottom line is that I don\u2019t want the job, but it\u2019s very nice to be asked.\nWhat do you think? Have you ever considered starting to work again after you\u2019ve retired? How is it working out for you? Please share your perspective by leaving a comment. In the alternative, you can email me at terriretirement@gmail.com.\nAuthor TerriPosted on April 19, 2017 Tags job offers, post-retirement jobs, work\n8 thoughts on \u201cEmployable\u201d\nI retired in 2014 after a long and successful career in state government. Unfortunately, not being a hobby or volunteer person, I quickly got bored and restless. After 11 months I went back to work at a job that was much lower down the chain than my state government. After two years at the new job, I realized that I was just going through the motions. Thus, I am now back in retirement mode looking for direction. My spouse still works and I think that makes my adjustment more difficult.\nHi, Walter! Thanks for reading. I\u2019m sorry to hear that you are encountering some bumps in the road looking for direction in retirement. I agree that it is probably more difficult because your spouse is still working. Max retired before I did and pretty much took over all the household chores and the management of our shared life, which freed up a lot of my time when I was off work. That enabled us to do a lot of things together when I wasn\u2019t working.\nIt sounds to me like you are looking for something I call a \u201cpowerful project.\u201d I\u2019ve written about this concept in an earlier post. A powerful project is a series of activities that are pleasurable, have purpose, build on each other towards an end goal, and spark passion for you. For me, writing this blog is one of my powerful projects that gives some structure and heft to my life.\nWhat about your job was satisfying enough to motivate you to try to go back? Were there aspects of it you really liked? Could you replicate some of those in a different job or by starting your own business or by writing about them? I\u2019m not thinking super literal about those favored aspects, just general concepts. Was it working with people, problem-solving, building your technical knowledge? Maybe you could do something with those interests. Remember, you don\u2019t have to worry about reaching any particular standard of success or meeting anyone\u2019s expectations\u2026 except your own expectations of happiness.\nGood luck! I know you\u2019ll hit on something. In the meantime, I hope you\u2019ll let yourself just enjoy the process of exploration.\nHere\u2019s the link for the \u201cGet A Life\u201d post that gives more information about \u201cpowerful projects\u201d:\nhttp://www.terrilabonte.com/tag/life-enrichment/\nTerri, I really enjoyed this blog awa \u201cPowerful Projects.\u201d After 34 yrs of scheduling my waking hours to get stuff done at work and home awa have fun time, I am over formal work, be it full-time or part-time. However, I do housework for spending money. The time is scheduled, for the most part, but there\u2019s flexibility if something comes up (on the part of the employers as well) whether that be varying the start/end time or skipping a week altogether if I have to be away. The flexibility of the hours is important to me. I\u2019m a practical person who enjoys making money while exercising. Many of my friends laugh at me but I find housework to be meditative and I enjoy the sense of accomplishment that comes from closing the door on a clean home. I also like being of service to the young families who hire me, freeing their time for other things. I realize that being of service is important to me so I volunteer at the local elementary school and with a community organization. I also host a series of 6 Home Routes folk concerts Oct-Apr that satisfies a need for socializing and hosting and the arts. I\u2019m still guilty of \u201cjustifying\u201d my retirement; volunteering is a form of \u201cearning\u201d my retirement pay even though I know that I earned my retirement and invested in it for 34 yrs. Boredom is not in my vocabulary. Even though there is always a list of things undone, I always say that when there\u2019s nothing to do, I can always go for a walk or read a book. I have a strong work ethic that was cultivated in the farm life of my childhood and that\u2019s been hard to shake. I would never want to be seen as \u201clazy\u201d so I sometimes find myself fighting the urge to do rather than be. The 4 cornerstones of a powerful project helped me to identify those things that I am passionate about. Neil Pasricha wrote the books \u201cThe Book of Awesome\u201d and \u201cThe Happiness Equation\u201d. He cites the 4 S\u2019s of satisfying work \u2013 social, structure, stimulation, story. I liken them to your 4 cornerstones of the powerful project \u2013 satisfying life? powerful life?\nMona, I think you sound like an expert at grounding your life with powerful projects. I agree that the happiness principles are similar to my powerful project pillars. Maybe sime of what you say will resonate for Walter, too. I know what you mean about housework. When I was working, I really hated it. Now that doing housework isn\u2019t scavenging the few moments of time to myself outside of work, I really enjoy it. It isn\u2019t easy, but it is kind of simple- you don\u2019t have to make complex decisions and it is easy to see immediate accomplishments! Thanks for chiming in!\nJan Bo says:\nMy old school called and begged me to come back and teach a class that they could not line up a teacher for. I took the job. Big mistake. I left at the end of the semester (totally new set of students at semester, so no abandonment issues). I haven\u2019t set foot in a classroom since. My time is my time. If the garden needs watering or a book needs to be read, I am present in the task. Heaven!\nHi, Jan! Thanks for your comment. Maybe taking the job wasn\u2019t a mistake, if it showed you definitively that you don\u2019t want to teach any more. That\u2019s one thing I really love about retirement. For me, it seems easier to experiment with activities and opportunities without feeling like they were a waste if they don\u2019t work out successfully. I\u2019m not sure why since time is a finite commodity, whether I am working or not. Still, since I retired, I tend to see experimentation as more of an investment than a wasted opportunity to do something more successful.\nHi Terri. I\u2019m still working part-time as a consultant in the same area that I used to work full-time. What I like about the consulting work is I only take on projects doing the work elements I liked doing\u2026 & none of the elements I didn\u2019t like. I can be selective because I don\u2019t need to work for financial reasons. I do it because I enjoy the mind stimulation that the projects require and I love it when the work output is being recognized. And yes, I find validation in the fact that people want me to work on their projects. I\u2019m not sure how long I\u2019ll continue to do this part-time work. I know I have to watch-out pretty regularly that the workaholic in me doesn\u2019t take over. And I still worry that I should find other things besides work to fill my time. But right now, it\u2019s a good mix of part-time and play-time.\nI\u2019m glad you have found the right balance for you right now. Congratulations! It sounds like you have the best of both worlds!\nPrevious Previous post: The Path To Easter\nNext Next post: Winter Wheat",

        "raw_content": "Posted in Single Spotlight, TMP Spotlights\nSingle Spotlight: \u201cI Don\u2019t Deserve You\u201d \u2013 Jason Boland & The Stragglers\nChristina Ramirez April 20, 2018 Leave a comment\nJason Boland and The Stragglers\u2026a Red Dirt Country band that is simply classic. Or, as Ray Benson once described Boland, \u201c\u2026he simply does it the right way.\u201d Boland and The Stragglers certainly are kicking off their 20th anniversary the \u201cright way\u201d with the release of the new single, \u201cI Don\u2019t Deserve You\u201d from the upcoming album Hard Times are Relative. The single reached the Top 30 this week on the Texas Music Spotify Chart!\nBoland shared with Rolling Stone that his inspiration for the song was his wife, Mandy, who was also the inspiration behind the single \u201cLucky I Guess\u201d off of the 2015 record Dark & Dirty Mile. In a similar approach, Boland takes a love song and puts a different spin on it lyrically. He then takes the lyrics and mixes them with classic country elements such as a steady two-steppin\u2019 beat and a solid steel guitar intro from the band. Last, but certainly not least, he features Texas\u2019 own Sunny Sweeney\u2019s vocals and she is so right for this song. In my opinion, she\u2019s actually the icing on the cake. Together, Boland and Sweeney vocally create a classic sounding honky tonk with a sexy edge.\nI couldn\u2019t agree more with Ray Benson\u2019s opinion on Boland after listening to this new track and especially in regards to the new album. A relative approach to music is a solid choice and Boland took \u2018relative\u2019 and literally put it in the lyrics of a song and made it the title his upcoming record. \u201cIf you\u2019re having hard times, they are relative to somebody else\u2019s hard times and whatever else is going on in the world,\u201d Boland said.\nFor those of you who listened to Episode 2 of the TMP Podcast, you heard Chris Fox give advice to up and coming artists on style and genre. He mentioned that factors such as the authenticity, a harmonious relationship between the message, the vocals and the music and other elements such as the songwriting and the ability for the listener to connect are the things that make a band worth listening to. And to that I say, Boland\u2019s new single is my show-and-tell for the week.\nHard Times are Relative is the ninth album from Boland and The Stragglers and is scheduled for release on May 18th (available for pre-order here). The record includes the following tracklist:\n\u201cDee Dee OD\u2019d\u201d\n\u201cGrandfather\u2019s Theme\u201d\nListen to \u201cI Don\u2019t Deserve You\u201d on Spotify below!\nYou can also find the song, as well as, other great Texas Country, Red Dirt, and Americana here on out TMP Spotify Playlist!\nWebsite: https://www.thestragglers.com/\nFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/jasonbolandandthestragglers/\nInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/jasonbolandandthestragglers/\nTwitter: https://twitter.com/bolandstraggler\niTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/artist/jason-boland-the-stragglers/6046292\nSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/1sX1MkGoDKuMzzhaALPFyZ?si=0GYcDFfUSz-60LziYIoRVA\n\u2190 [Song Premiere] Erick Willis \u2013 Broken Man\n[Podcast] Spotify vs Apple Music vs Amazon Music Unlimited \u2192",

Despite great success, many key questions in particle physics and cosmology are unanswered. In particular, some 95% of the Universe consists of unknown dark matter and dark energy. Particle physics is about to enter the Terascale, providing a deeper understanding of the Universe and possibly dramatically changing our view of the world.

        "title": "Porsche is Developing a New GT4 Racecar for 2019: Report - The Drive",
        "raw_content": "Porsche is Developing a New GT4 Racecar for 2019: Report\nStuttgart's GT racing boss Dr. Frank Walliser revealed that the brand is striving for improvements to its established Cayman racing platform.\n\u00a9 2018 Rip Shaub. All Rights Reserved\nPorsche has achieved a string of success with its SRO GT4-spec Cayman in various global racing series. Its most relevant triumphs in the States include a Grand Sport championship in the Continental Tire Sportscar Challenge as well as a quartet of victories in Pirelli World Challenge last year, helping it to become instantly recognizable to American motorsport devotees. In addition to that, the car's growing presence in international competition has provoked the attention of Porsche's ever-growing GT program, and as a result, the Cayman GT4 MR-variant will be treated to a host of upgrades in 2019.\nIn an interview with Sportscar365, Porsche GT motorsport head Dr. Frank Walliser announced that he and his team are working on improving the Cayman platform for the evident expansion of customer racing programs. According to the exec, these revisions will address not only handling and architecture but also a modest bump in power and acceleration.\n\"We\u2019ve seen in the customer's hands, there are some things you have to make easier, such as the handling,\u201d Walliser explained. \u201cIt\u2019s always based on street car electronics for cost reasons, and how to handle this, how to make it convenient for the customers and for the teams to handle it. This is one of the main targets.\n\u201cWe\u2019re looking to improve everything, including a little bit of engine power and we\u2019ll add a little bit more downforce, depending on what the street car will bring.\u201d\nWalliser is understood to be referencing the upcoming 718 Cayman GT4 road car which is rumored to feature a version of the 911 GT3's powerful flat-six engine.\nGoing forward, the German then added that Porsche will not put a cap on production in order to meet increased demand. Last year, the original 400-example manufacturing run was quickly sold out, prompting the marque to build a considerable amount more in the coming years.\n\u201cIf we start, like we did in the past, we\u2019ll deliver it to customers in a significant number,\u201d he said. \u201cBut we did not really cover the demand worldwide [with the original car]. We did not really push in the sales; it was a new category and we see a huge demand now around the world, in the Clubsport series and also in emerging motorsports markets like China and Thailand.\u201d\nLastly, Walliser reiterated that the GT4-spec cars will be geared towards amateur drivers rather than full-time professionals. He extended the fact that Porsche offers cars for multiple racing disciplines and that they will each remain distinct.\n\"It\u2019s clear the target is for Am cars and some of the new entries, from my point of view, are beyond the line and over the edge,\u201d Walliser said. \u201cThey are stripped down GT3 cars and we want GT4 cars. The idea is low running costs and that makes it more interested. It\u2019s not a question if you\u2019re a second faster or not. We need good competition. The [CTSC] race in Daytona was nice and close. But I don\u2019t want to see pro drivers in a GT4 car. It should be Silver and Bronze drivers only.\u201d\nThe Porsche Cayman GT4 Is Just About Perfect On Track\nResults: 2018 BMW Endurance Challenge at Daytona International Speedway\nThe Continental Tire Sports Car Challenge series looks to be in for a tightly-contested campaign yet again this year.\nWatch This Porsche Cayman GT4 Almost Wreck Trying to Keep Up With a Tesla P90D\nThis Porsche was no match for the P100D's Ludicrous mode.\nThe Road Scholars Porsche Cayman GTR Widebody Is a Beautiful Thing\n\"It's easy and it's friendly, but it's also angry.\" - Matt Farah\nWatch This Porsche Cayman GT4 Race Car Almost Crash on the Nurburgring\nThat's one lucky GT4 driver right there.\nHow Do You Build The Perfect Porsche Cayman GT4?\nHenry Catchpole Rates The Sharkwerks-Fettled GT4 \"A Solid Twelve Out Of Ten\"",

        "raw_content": "Home / Approved / Company providing natural gas to Cumberland, Falmouth, Yarmouth taps Ohio man as new president\nCompany providing natural gas to Cumberland, Falmouth, Yarmouth taps Ohio man as new president\nBy Alex Lear on December 9, 2014@learics\nCUMBERLAND \u2014 The utility bringing natural gas service to Cumberland, Falmouth and Yarmouth has announced a change in leadership.\nSummit Natural Gas of Maine named Mike Tanchuk president, effective Jan. 1, 2015, according to a company press release. He will replace Mike Minkos, who is retiring.\nTanchuk, who already works as an adviser to Summit, will also be executive vice president of Summit Utilities, and direct all strategies and operations for Summit Natural Gas of Maine, according to the press release.\nThe announcement came less than a month after the utility pledged to reimburse customers for deposits they paid for work that remains incomplete because a contractor went out of business.\nContractor David Ireland, who abruptly closed his Howland business, and laid much of the blame for his situation on the utility, noting, among other things, Summit\u2019s delayed laying of service lines, which was postponed several time from July to December.\n\u201cWhen you\u2019re the last utility in a right-of-way,\u201d Cumberland Town Manager Bill Shane said Tuesday, referring to storm water, sewer, water, telecommunications, power and cable, \u201c\u2026 maybe it\u2019s surprising that we got as much done as we did in the first year. \u2026 This was never to be all done in one year; it was always to be a three-to-five-year plan.\u201d\nThe company is under budget in the tri-town area for this year, which may allow for additional areas to be supplied next year, Shane said, adding that \u201cyou have to get through the growing pains.\u201d\n\u201cMike Minkos has done a great job for our area,\u201d Shane said. \u201cHe has worked very well with the three towns, and especially in dealing with this latest contractor issue. I think his leadership was instrumental in getting us to a very positive resolution.\u201d\nMinkos was already retired when approached by Summit, and his time with the company was meant to have been short, according to Shane. The manager said he understood that the intent was to get the Cumberland-Falmouth-Yarmouth area up and running with natural gas, and then for Minkos to withdraw into a consultant role.\nIn the press release announcing his appointment, Tanchuk said he was \u201cvery impressed by the work Summit Natural Gas of Maine has done in such a short amount of time. The vision and values of the company were a big part of my decision to come to Summit. My focus will be to build on Summit\u2019s success and be part of a team that\u2019s reducing energy costs for residents and businesses across this great state, as well as providing hundreds of jobs for Mainers.\u201d\nTanchuk most recently was chief executive officer at Ormet Corp. of Ohio, which produced aluminum services and products, and related items, according to Summit.\nOrmet closed in October 2013, according to the Columbus Dispatch, which reported most of the company\u2019s 700 workers were put out of work. Tanchuk blamed the plant\u2019s closure partly on Ohio\u2019s electricity market deregulation, which he said caused a significant increase in power bills.\nTanchuk previously was responsible for expansion and operations at Century Aluminum, and was president of Alcoa/Reynolds Metals Co.\n\u201cMike Tanchuk has proven great leadership qualities and a wide range of experience in operations, project management and business development,\u201d Mike Earnest, president and CEO of Summit Utilities, said in the company\u2019s announcement. \u201cHis skills will be a tremendous asset for our company as we continue to build on our growth in Maine.\u201d\nMike Tanchuk",

This means that any consistent computable formal theory which can prove some arithmetic truths cannot prove all arithmetic truths.\nThe theorems were proven by Kurt G\u00f6del in 1931, and are important in the philosophy of mathematics. The result is widely interpreted as showing that Hilbert's program to find a complete and consistent set of axioms for all of mathematics is impossible, thus giving a negative answer to Hilbert's second problem.\n2 First incompleteness theorem\n2.1 Meaning of the first incompleteness theorem\n2.2 Relation to the liar paradox\n2.3 Original statement\n2.4 Extensions of G\u00f6del's original result\n3 Second incompleteness theorem\n3.1 Implications for consistency proofs\n3.2 Original statement of G\u00f6del\u2019s Theorem XI\n4 Examples of undecidable statements\n5 Limitations of G\u00f6del's theorems\n6 Relationship with computability\n6.1 Formalized proofs\n7 Proof sketch for the first theorem\n7.1 Arithmetization of syntax\n7.3 Proof of independence\n7.4 Proof via Berry's paradox\n8 Proof sketch for the second theorem\n9 Discussion and implications\n9.1 Minds and machines\n9.2 Appeals to the incompleteness theorems in other fields\n12.1 Articles by G\u00f6del\n12.2 Translations, during his lifetime, of G\u00f6del\u2019s paper into English\n12.3 Articles by others\n12.4 Books about the theorems\n12.5 Miscellaneous references\nIn mathematical logic, a theory is a set of sentences expressed in a formal language. Some statements in a theory are included without proof (these are the axioms of the theory), and others (the theorems) are included because they are implied by the axioms.\nBecause statements of a formal theory are written in symbolic form, it is possible to mechanically verify that a formal proof from a finite set of axioms is valid. This task, known as automatic proof verification, is closely related to automated theorem proving; the difference is that instead of constructing a new proof, the proof verifier simply checks that a provided formal proof (or, in some cases, instructions that can be followed to create a formal proof) is correct. This is not merely hypothetical; systems such as Isabelle are used today to formalize proofs and then check their validity.\nMany theories of interest include an infinite set of axioms, however. To verify a formal proof when the set of axioms is infinite, it must be possible to determine whether a statement that is claimed to be an axiom is actually an axiom. This issue arises in first order theories of arithmetic, such as Peano arithmetic, because the principle of mathematical induction is expressed as an infinite set of axioms (an axiom schema).\nA formal theory is said to be effectively generated if its set of axioms is a recursively enumerable set. This means that there is a computer program that, in principle, could enumerate all the axioms of the theory without listing any statements that are not axioms. This is equivalent to the ability to enumerate all the theorems of the theory without enumerating any statements that are not theorems. For example, each of the theories of Peano arithmetic and Zermelo\u2013Fraenkel set theory has an infinite number of axioms and each is effectively generated.\nIn choosing a set of axioms, one goal is to be able to prove as many correct results as possible, without proving any incorrect results. A set of axioms is complete if, for any statement in the axioms' language, either that statement or its negation is provable from the axioms. A set of axioms is (simply) consistent if there is no statement so that both the statement and its negation are provable from the axioms. In the standard system of first-order logic, an inconsistent set of axioms will prove every statement in its language (this is sometimes called the principle of explosion), and is thus automatically complete. A set of axioms that is both complete and consistent, however, proves a maximal set of non-contradictory theorems. G\u00f6del's incompleteness theorems show that in certain cases it is not possible to obtain an effectively generated, complete, consistent theory.\nG\u00f6del's first incompleteness theorem states that:\nAny effectively generated theory capable of expressing elementary arithmetic cannot be both consistent and complete. In particular, for any consistent, effectively generated formal theory that proves certain basic arithmetic truths, there is an arithmetical statement that is true,[1] but not provable in the theory (Kleene 1967, p. 250).\nThe true but unprovable statement referred to by the theorem is often referred to as \u201cthe G\u00f6del sentence\u201d for the theory. It is not unique; there are infinitely many statements in the language of the theory that share the property of being true but unprovable.[2]\nFor each consistent formal theory T having the required small amount of number theory, the corresponding G\u00f6del sentence G asserts: \u201cG cannot be proved to be true within the theory T\u201d. If G were provable under the axioms and rules of inference of T, then T would have a theorem, G, which effectively contradicts itself, and thus the theory T would be inconsistent. This means that if the theory T is consistent then G cannot be proved within it. This means that G's claim about its own unprovability is correct; in this sense G is not only unprovable but true. Thus provability-within-the-theory-T is not the same as truth; the theory T is incomplete.\nIf G is true: G cannot be proved within the theory, and the theory is incomplete. If G is false: then G can be proved within the theory and then the theory is inconsistent, since G is both provable and refutable from T.\nEach theory has its own G\u00f6del statement. It is possible to define a larger theory T\u2019 that contains the whole of T, plus G as an additional axiom. This will not result in a complete theory, because G\u00f6del's theorem will also apply to T\u2019, and thus T\u2019 cannot be complete. In this case, G is indeed a theorem in T\u2019, because it is an axiom. Since G states only that it is not provable in T, no contradiction is presented by its provability in T\u2019. However, because the incompleteness theorem applies to T\u2019: there will be a new G\u00f6del statement G\u2019 for T\u2019, showing that T\u2019 is also incomplete. G\u2019 will differ from G in that G\u2019 will refer to T\u2019, rather than T.\nTo prove the first incompleteness theorem, G\u00f6del represented statements by numbers. Then the theory at hand, which is assumed to prove certain facts about numbers, also proves facts about its own statements. Questions about the provability of statements are represented as questions about the properties of numbers, which would be decidable by the theory if it were complete. In these terms, the G\u00f6del sentence states that no natural number exists with a certain, strange property. A number with this property would encode a proof of the inconsistency of the theory. If there were such a number then the theory would be inconsistent, contrary to the consistency hypothesis. So, under the assumption that the theory is consistent, there is no such number.\nG\u00f6del's first incompleteness theorem shows that any consistent formal system that includes enough of the theory of the natural numbers is incomplete; there are true statements expressible in its language that are unprovable. Thus no formal system (satisfying the hypotheses of the theorem) that aims to characterize the natural numbers can actually do so, as there will be true number-theoretical statements which that system cannot prove. This fact is sometimes thought to have severe consequences for the program of logicism proposed by Gottlob Frege and Bertrand Russell, which aimed to define the natural numbers in terms of logic (Hellman 1981, p. 451\u2013468). Some (like Bob Hale and Crispin Wright) believe that it is not a problem for logicism because the incompleteness theorems apply equally to second order logic as they do to arithmetic. It is only those who believe that the natural numbers are to be defined in terms of first order logic - which is consistent and complete - who have this problem.\nThe existence of an incomplete formal system is in itself not particularly surprising. A system may be incomplete simply because not all the necessary axioms have been discovered. For example, Euclidean geometry without the parallel postulate is incomplete; it is not possible to prove or disprove the parallel postulate from the remaining axioms.\nG\u00f6del's theorem shows that, in theories that include a small portion of number theory, a complete and consistent finite list of axioms can never be created, nor even an infinite list that can be enumerated by a computer program. Each time a new statement is added as an axiom, there are other true statements that still cannot be proved, even with the new axiom. If an axiom is ever added that makes the system complete, it does so at the cost of making the system inconsistent.\nIt is possible to have a complete and consistent list of axioms that cannot be enumerated by a computer program. For example, one might take all true statements about the natural numbers to be axioms (and no false statements). But then there is no mechanical way to decide, given a statement about the natural numbers, whether it is an axiom or not, and thus no effective way to verify a formal proof in this theory.\nMany logicians believe that G\u00f6del's incompleteness theorems struck a fatal blow to David Hilbert's second problem, which asked for a finitary consistency proof for mathematics. The second incompleteness theorem, in particular, is often viewed as making the problem impossible. Not all mathematicians agree with this analysis, however, and the status of Hilbert's second problem is not yet decided (see \"Modern viewpoints on the status of the problem\").\nThe first incompleteness theorem first appeared as \"Theorem VI\" in his 1931 paper On Formally Undecidable Propositions in Principia Mathematica and Related Systems I. In G\u00f6del's original notation, it states:\n\"The general result about the existence of undecidable propositions reads as follows:\n\"Theorem VI. For every \u03c9-consistent recursive class \u03ba of FORMULAS there are recursive CLASS SIGNS r, such that neither v Gen r nor Neg(v Gen r) belongs to Flg(\u03ba) (where v is the FREE VARIABLE of r).[3](van Heijenoort 1967:607.)\nG\u00f6del demonstrated the incompleteness of the theory of Principia Mathematica, a particular theory of arithmetic, but a parallel demonstration could be given for any effective theory of a certain expressiveness. G\u00f6del commented on this fact in the introduction to his paper, but restricted the proof to one system for concreteness. In modern statements of the theorem, it is common to state the effectiveness and expressiveness conditions as hypotheses for the incompleteness theorem, so that it is not limited to any particular formal theory. The terminology used to state these conditions was not yet developed in 1931 when G\u00f6del published his results.\nG\u00f6del's original statement and proof of the incompleteness theorem requires the assumption that the theory is not just consistent but \u03c9-consistent. A theory is \u03c9-consistent if it is not \u03c9-inconsistent, and is \u03c9-inconsistent if there is a predicate P such that for every specific natural number n the theory proves ~P(n), and yet the theory also proves that there exists a natural number n such that P(n). That is, the theory says that a number with property P exists while denying that it has any specific value. The \u03c9-consistency of a theory implies its consistency, but consistency does not imply \u03c9-consistency. J. Barkley Rosser (1936) strengthened the incompleteness theorem by finding a variation of the proof (Rosser's trick) that only requires the theory to be consistent, rather than \u03c9-consistent. This is mostly of technical interest, since all true formal theories of arithmetic (theories whose axioms are all true statements about natural numbers) are \u03c9-consistent, and thus G\u00f6del's theorem as originally stated applies to them. The stronger version of the incompleteness theorem that only assumes consistency, rather than \u03c9-consistency, is now commonly known as G\u00f6del's incompleteness theorem and as the G\u00f6del\u2013Rosser theorem.\nG\u00f6del's second incompleteness theorem can be stated as follows:\nFor any formal effectively generated theory T including basic arithmetical truths and also certain truths about formal provability, T includes a statement of its own consistency if and only if T is inconsistent.\nThis strengthens the first incompleteness theorem, because the statement constructed in the first incompleteness theorem does not directly express the consistency of the theory. The proof of the second incompleteness theorem is obtained, essentially, by formalizing the proof of the first incompleteness theorem within the theory itself.\nA technical subtlety in the second incompleteness theorem is how to express the consistency of T as a formula in the language of T. There are many ways to do this, and not all of them lead to the same result. In particular, different formalizations of the claim that T is consistent may be inequivalent in T, and some may even be provable. For example, first-order Peano arithmetic (PA) can prove that the largest consistent subset of PA is consistent. But since PA is consistent, the largest consistent subset of PA is just PA, so in this sense PA \"proves that it is consistent\". What PA does not prove is that the largest consistent subset of PA is, in fact, the whole of PA. (The term \"largest consistent subset of PA\" is rather vague, but what is meant here is the largest consistent initial segment of the axioms of PA ordered according to some criteria; for example, by \"G\u00f6del numbers\", the numbers encoding the axioms as per the scheme used by G\u00f6del mentioned above).\nIn the case of Peano arithmetic, or any familiar explicitly axiomatized theory T, it is possible to canonically define a formula Con(T) expressing the consistency of T; this formula expresses the property that \"there does not exist a natural number coding a sequence of formulas, such that each formula is either one of the axioms of T, a logical axiom, or an immediate consequence of preceding formulas according to the rules of inference of first-order logic, and such that the last formula is a contradiction\".\nThe formalization of Con(T) depends on two factors: formalizing the notion of a sentence being derivable from a set of sentences and formalizing the notion of being an axiom of T. Formalizing derivability can be done in canonical fashion: given an arithmetical formula A(x) defining a set of axioms, one can canonically form a predicate ProvA(P) which expresses that P is provable from the set of axioms defined by A(x). In addition, ProvA(P) must satisfy the so-called Hilbert\u2013Bernays provability conditions:\nIf T proves P, then T proves ProvA(P).\nT proves 1.; that is, T proves that if T proves P, then T proves ProvA(P).\nT proves that if T proves that (P \u2192 Q) then T proves that provability of P implies provability of Q.\nSolomon Feferman showed that G\u00f6del's second incompleteness theorem goes through when the formula A(x) is chosen so that it has the form \"there exists a number n satisfying the decidable predicate P\" for some P.\nG\u00f6del's second incompleteness theorem also implies that a theory T1 satisfying the technical conditions outlined above cannot prove the consistency of any theory T2 which proves the consistency of T1. This is because such a theory T1 can prove that if T2 proves the consistency of T1, then T1 is in fact consistent. For the claim that T1 is consistent has form \"for all numbers n, n has the decidable property of not being a code for a proof of contradiction in T1\". If T1 were in fact inconsistent, then T2 would prove for some n that n is the code of a contradiction in T1. But if T2 also proved that T1 is consistent (that is, that there is no such n), then it would itself be inconsistent. This reasoning can be formalized in T1 to show that if T2 is consistent, then T1 is consistent. Since, by second incompleteness theorem, T1 does not prove its consistency, it cannot prove the consistency of T2 either.\nThis corollary of the second incompleteness theorem shows that there is no hope of proving, for example, the consistency of Peano arithmetic using any finitistic means that can be formalized in a theory the consistency of which is provable in Peano arithmetic. For example, the theory of primitive recursive arithmetic (PRA), which is widely accepted as an accurate formalization of finitistic mathematics, is provably consistent in PA. Thus PRA cannot prove the consistency of PA. This fact is generally seen to imply that Hilbert's program, which aimed to justify the use of \"ideal\" (infinitistic) mathematical principles in the proofs of \"real\" (finitistic) mathematical statements by giving a finitistic proof that the ideal principles are consistent, cannot be carried out.\nThe corollary also indicates the epistemological relevance of the second incompleteness theorem. As Georg Kreisel remarked, it would actually provide no interesting information if a theory T proved its consistency. This is because inconsistent theories prove everything, including their consistency. Thus a consistency proof of T in T would give us no clue as to whether T really is consistent; no doubts about the consistency of T would be resolved by such a consistency proof. The interest in consistency proofs lies in the possibility of proving the consistency of a theory T in some theory T\u2019 which is in some sense less doubtful than T itself, for example weaker than T. For many naturally occurring theories T and T\u2019, such as T = Zermelo\u2013Fraenkel set theory and T\u2019 = primitive recursive arithmetic, the consistency of T\u2019 is provable in T, and thus T\u2019 can't prove the consistency of T by the above corollary of the second incompleteness theorem.\nThe second incompleteness theorem does not rule out consistency proofs altogether, only consistency proofs that could be formalized in the theory that is proved consistent. For example, Gerhard Gentzen proved the consistency of Peano arithmetic (PA) using the assumption that a certain ordinal called \u03b50 is actually wellfounded; see Gentzen's consistency proof. Gentzen's theorem spurred the development of ordinal analysis in proof theory.\nWhile contemporary usage calls it the \u201cSecond incompleteness Theorem\u201d, in the original G\u00f6del presented it as his \u201cTheorem XI\u201d. It is stated thus (in the following, \u201cSection 2\u201d is where his Theorem VI appears, and P is G\u00f6del\u2019s abbreviation for the system obtained by adding the Peano axioms to the logical system of Principia Mathematica.\n\u201dThe results of Section 2 have a surprising consequence concerning a consistency proof for the system P (and its extensions), which can be stated as follows:\n\u201dTheorem XI. Let \u03ba be any recursive consistent63 class of FORMULAS; then the SENTENTIAL FORMULA stating that \u03ba is consistent is not \u03ba-PROVABLE; in particular, the consistency of P is not provable in P,64 provided P is consistent (in the opposite case, of course, every proposition is provable [in P])\". (Brackets in original added by G\u00f6del \u201cto help the reader\u201d, translation and typography in van Heijenoort 1967:614)\n\u201d63 \u201c\u03ba is consistent\u201d (abbreviated by \u201cWid(\u03ba)\u201d) is defined as thus: Wid(\u03ba)\u2261 (Ex)(Form(x) & ~Bew\u03ba(x)).\"\n(Note: In the original \"Bew\" has a negation-\u201cbar\u201d written over it, indicated here by ~. \u201cWid\u201d abbreviates \u201cWiderspruchfreiheit = consistency\u201d, \u201cForm\u201d abbreviates \u201cFormel = formula\u201d, \u201cBew\u201d abbreviates \u201cBeweisbar = provable\u201d (translations from Meltzer and Braithwaite 1962, 1996 edition:33-34) )\n\u201d64 This follows if we substitute the empty class of FORMULAS for \u03ba.\u201d\nSee also: List of statements undecidable in ZFC\nThere are two distinct senses of the word \"undecidable\" in mathematics and computer science. The first of these is the proof-theoretic sense used in relation to G\u00f6del's theorems, that of a statement being neither provable nor refutable in a specified deductive system. The second sense, which will not be discussed here, is used in relation to computability theory and applies not to statements but to decision problems, which are countably infinite sets of questions each requiring a yes or no answer. Such a problem is said to be undecidable if there is no computable function that correctly answers every question in the problem set (see undecidable problem).\nBecause of the two meanings of the word undecidable, the term independent is sometimes used instead of undecidable for the \"neither provable nor refutable\" sense. The usage of \"independent\" is also ambiguous, however. Some use it to mean just \"not provable\", leaving open whether an independent statement might be refuted.\nUndecidability of a statement in a particular deductive system does not, in and of itself, address the question of whether the truth value of the statement is well-defined, or whether it can be determined by other means. Undecidability only implies that the particular deductive system being considered does not prove the truth or falsity of the statement. Whether there exist so-called \"absolutely undecidable\" statements, whose truth value can never be known or is ill-specified, is a controversial point in the philosophy of mathematics.\nThe combined work of G\u00f6del and Paul Cohen has given two concrete examples of undecidable statements (in the first sense of the term): The continuum hypothesis can neither be proved nor refuted in ZFC (the standard axiomatization of set theory), and the axiom of choice can neither be proved nor refuted in ZF (which is all the ZFC axioms except the axiom of choice). These results do not require the incompleteness theorem. G\u00f6del proved in 1940 that neither of these statements could be disproved in ZF or ZFC set theory. In the 1960s, Cohen proved that neither is provable from ZF, and the continuum hypothesis cannot be proven from ZFC.\nIn 1973, the Whitehead problem in group theory was shown to be undecidable, in the first sense of the term, in standard set theory.\nIn 1977, Paris and Harrington proved that the Paris-Harrington principle, a version of the Ramsey theorem, is undecidable in the first-order axiomatization of arithmetic called Peano arithmetic, but can be proven to be true in the larger system of second-order arithmetic. Kirby and Paris later showed Goodstein's theorem, a statement about sequences of natural numbers somewhat simpler than the Paris-Harrington principle, to be undecidable in Peano arithmetic.\nKruskal's tree theorem, which has applications in computer science, is also undecidable from Peano arithmetic but provable in set theory. In fact Kruskal's tree theorem (or its finite form) is undecidable in a much stronger system codifying the principles acceptable on the basis of a philosophy of mathematics called predicativism. The related but more general graph minor theorem (2003) has consequences for computational complexity theory.\nGregory Chaitin produced undecidable statements in algorithmic information theory and proved another incompleteness theorem in that setting. Chaitin's theorem states that for any theory that can represent enough arithmetic, there is an upper bound c such that no specific number can be proven in that theory to have Kolmogorov complexity greater than c. While G\u00f6del's theorem is related to the liar paradox, Chaitin's result is related to Berry's paradox.\nG\u00f6del's theorems only apply to consistent theories. In first-order logic, because of the principle of explosion, an inconsistent theory T proves every formula in its language, including formulas that claim T is consistent.\nThe conclusions of G\u00f6del's theorems only hold for the formal theories that satisfy the necessary hypotheses. Not all axiom systems satisfy these hypotheses, even when these systems have models that include the natural numbers as a subset. For example, there are first-order axiomatizations of Euclidean geometry, of real closed fields, and of arithmetic in which multiplication is not provably total; none of these meet the hypotheses of G\u00f6del's theorems. The key fact is that these axiomatizations are not expressive enough to define the set of natural numbers or develop basic properties of the natural numbers. Regarding the third example, Dan E. Willard has studied many weak systems of arithmetic which do not satisfy the hypotheses of the second incompleteness theorem (e.g. Willard 2001).\nG\u00f6del's theorems only apply to effectively generated (that is, recursively enumerable) theories. If all true statements about natural numbers are taken as axioms for a theory, then this theory is a consistent, complete extension of Peano arithmetic for which none of G\u00f6del's theorems hold, because this theory is not recursively enumerable.\nThe second incompleteness theorem only shows that the consistency of certain theories cannot be proved from the axioms of those theories themselves. It does not show that the consistency cannot be proved from other (consistent) axioms. For example, the consistency of the Peano arithmetic can be proved in Zermelo\u2013Frankel set theory (ZFC), or in theories of arithmetic augmented with transfinite induction, as in Gentzen's consistency proof.\nThe incompleteness theorem is closely related to several results about undecidable sets in recursion theory.\nStephen Cole Kleene (1943) presented a proof of G\u00f6del's incompleteness theorem using basic results of computability theory. One such result shows that the halting problem is unsolvable: there is no computer program that can correctly determine, given a program P as input, whether P eventually halts when run with no input. Kleene showed that the existence of a complete effective theory of arithmetic with certain consistency properties would force the halting problem to be decidable, a contradiction. This method of proof has also been presented by Shoenfield (1967, p. 132); Charlesworth (1980); and Hopcroft and Ullman (1979).\nFranz\u00e9n (2005, p. 73) explains how Matiyasevich's solution to Hilbert's 10th problem can be used to obtain a proof to G\u00f6del's first incompleteness theorem. Matiyasevich proved that there is no algorithm that, given a multivariate polynomial p(x1, x2,...,xk) with integer coefficients, determines whether there is an integer solution to the equation p = 0. Because polynomials with integer coefficients, and integers themselves, are directly expressible in the language of arithmetic, if a multivariate integer polynomial equation p = 0 does have a solution in the integers then any sufficiently strong theory of arithmetic T will prove this. Moreover, if the theory T is \u03c9-consistent, then it will never prove that some polynomial equation has a solution when in fact there is no solution in the integers. Thus, if T were complete and \u03c9-consistent, it would be possible to algorithmically determine whether a polynomial equation has a solution by merely enumerating proofs of T until either \"p has a solution\" or \"p has no solution\" is found, in contradiction to Matiyasevich's theorem.\nSmorynski (1977, p. 842) shows how the existence of recursively inseparable sets can be used to prove the first incompleteness theorem. This proof is often extended to show that systems such as Peano arithmetic are essentially undecidable (see Kleene 1967, p. 274).\nFormalized proofs of versions of the incompleteness theorem have been developed by N. Shankar in 1986 using Nqthm (Shankar 1994) and by R. O'Connor in 2003 using Coq (O'Connor 2005).\nMain article: Proof sketch for G\u00f6del's first incompleteness theorem\nThroughout the proof we assume a formal system is fixed and satisfies the necessary hypotheses. The proof has three essential parts. The first part is to show that statements can be represented by natural numbers, known as G\u00f6del numbers, and that properties of the statements can be detected by examining their G\u00f6del numbers. This part culminates in the construction of a formula expressing the idea that a statement is provable in the system. The second part of the proof is to construct a particular statement that, essentially, says that it is unprovable. The third part of the proof is to analyze this statement to show that it is neither provable nor disprovable in the system.\nThe main problem in fleshing out the proof described above is that it seems at first that to construct a statement p that is equivalent to \"p cannot be proved\", p would have to somehow contain a reference to p, which could easily give rise to an infinite regress. G\u00f6del's ingenious trick, which was later used by Alan Turing in his work on the Entscheidungsproblem, is to represent statements as numbers, which is often called the arithmetization of syntax. This allows a self-referential formula to be constructed in a way that avoids any infinite regress of definitions.\nTo begin with, every formula or statement that can be formulated in our system gets a unique number, called its G\u00f6del number. This is done in such a way that it is easy to mechanically convert back and forth between formulas and G\u00f6del numbers. It is similar, for example, to the way English sentences are encoded as sequences (or \"strings\") of numbers using ASCII: such a sequence is considered as a single (if potentially very large) number. Because our system is strong enough to reason about numbers, it is now also possible to reason about formulas within the system.\nA formula F(x) that contains exactly one free variable x is called a statement form or class-sign. As soon as x is replaced by a specific number, the statement form turns into a bona fide statement, and it is then either provable in the system, or not. For certain formulas one can show that for every natural number n, F(n) is true if and only if it can be proven (the precise requirement in the original proof is weaker, but for the proof sketch this will suffice). In particular, this is true for every specific arithmetic operation between a finite number of natural numbers, such as \"2*3=6\".\nStatement forms themselves are not statements and therefore cannot be proved or disproved. But every statement form F(x) can be assigned with a G\u00f6del number which we will denote by G(F). The choice of the free variable used in the form F(x) is not relevant to the assignment of the G\u00f6del number G(F).\nNow comes the trick: The notion of provability itself can also be encoded by G\u00f6del numbers, in the following way. Since a proof is a list of statements which obey certain rules, we can define the G\u00f6del number of a proof. Now, for every statement p, we may ask whether a number x is the G\u00f6del number of its proof. The relation between the G\u00f6del number of p and x, the G\u00f6del number of its proof, is an arithmetical relation between two numbers. Therefore there is a statement form Bew(x) that uses this arithmetical relation to state that a G\u00f6del number of a proof of x exists:\nBew(y) = \u2203 x ( y is the G\u00f6del number of a formula and x is the G\u00f6del number of a proof of the formula encoded by y).\nThe name Bew is short for beweisbar, the German word for \"provable\"; this name was originally used by G\u00f6del to denote the provability formula just described. Note that \"Bew(y)\" is merely an abbreviation that represents a particular, very long, formula in the original language of T; the string \"Bew\" itself is not claimed to be part of this language.\nAn important feature of the formula Bew(y) is that if a statement p is provable in the system then Bew(G(p)) is also provable. This is because any proof of p would have a corresponding G\u00f6del number, the existence of which causes Bew(G(p)) to be satisfied.\nThe next step in the proof is to obtain a statement that says it is unprovable. Although G\u00f6del constructed this statement directly, the existence of at least one such statement follows from the diagonal lemma, which says that for any sufficiently strong formal system and any statement form F there is a statement p such that the system proves\np \u2194 F(G(p)).\nWe obtain p by letting F be the negation of Bew(x); thus p roughly states that its own G\u00f6del number is the G\u00f6del number of an unprovable formula.\nThe statement p is not literally equal to ~Bew(G(p)); rather, p states that if a certain calculation is performed, the resulting G\u00f6del number will be that of an unprovable statement. But when this calculation is performed, the resulting G\u00f6del number turns out to be the G\u00f6del number of p itself. This is similar to the following sentence in English:\n\", when preceded by itself in quotes, is unprovable.\", when preceded by itself in quotes, is unprovable.\nThis sentence does not directly refer to itself, but when the stated transformation is made the original sentence is obtained as a result, and thus this sentence asserts its own unprovability. The proof of the diagonal lemma employs a similar method.\nWe will now assume that our axiomatic system is \u03c9-consistent. We let p be the statement obtained in the previous section.\nIf p were provable, then Bew(G(p)) would be provable, as argued above. But p asserts the negation of Bew(G(p)). Thus our system would be inconsistent, proving both a statement and its negation. This contradiction shows that p cannot be provable.\nIf the negation of p were provable, then Bew(G(p)) would be provable (because p was constructed to be equivalent to the negation of Bew(G(p))). However, for each specific number x, x cannot be the G\u00f6del number of the proof of p, because p is not provable (from the previous paragraph). Thus on one hand the system proves there is a number with a certain property (that it is the G\u00f6del number of the proof of p), but on the other hand, for every specific number x, we can prove that it does not have this property. This is impossible in an \u03c9-consistent system. Thus the negation of p is not provable.\nThus the statement p is undecidable: it can neither be proved nor disproved within the system.\nIt should be noted that p is not provable (and thus true) in every consistent system. The assumption of \u03c9-consistency is only required for the negation of p to be not provable. Thus:\nIn an \u03c9-consistent formal system, we may prove neither p nor its negation, and so p is undecidable.\nIn a consistent formal system we may either have the same situation, or we may prove the negation of p; In the later case, we have a statement (\"not p\") which is false but provable.\nNote that if one tries to \"add the missing axioms\" to avoid the undecidability of the system, then one has to add either p or \"not p\" as axioms. But then the definition of \"being a G\u00f6del number of a proof\" of a statement changes. which means that the statement form Bew(x) is now different. Thus when we apply the diagonal lemma to this new form Bew, we obtain a new statement p, different from the previous one, which will be undecidable in the new system if it is \u03c9-consistent.\nGeorge Boolos (1989) sketches an alternative proof of the first incompleteness theorem that uses Berry's paradox rather than the liar paradox to construct a true but unprovable formula. A similar proof method was independently discovered by Saul Kripke (Boolos 1998, p. 383). Boolos's proof proceeds by constructing, for any computably enumerable set S of true sentences of arithmetic, another sentence which is true but not contained in S. This gives the first incompleteness theorem as a corollary. According to Boolos, this proof is interesting because it provides a \"different sort of reason\" for the incompleteness of effective, consistent theories of arithmetic (Boolos 1998, p. 388).\nThe main difficulty in proving the second incompleteness theorem is to show that various facts about provability used in the proof of the first incompleteness theorem can be formalized within the system using a formal predicate for provability. Once this is done, the second incompleteness theorem essentially follows by formalizing the entire proof of the first incompleteness theorem within the system itself.\nLet p stand for the undecidable sentence constructed above, and assume that the consistency of the system can be proven from within the system itself. We have seen above that if the system is consistent, then p is not provable. The proof of this implication can be formalized within the system, and therefore the statement \"p is not provable\", or \"not P(p)\" can be proven in the system.\nBut this last statement is equivalent to p itself (and this equivalence can be proven in the system), so p can be proven in the system. This contradiction shows that the system must be inconsistent.\nThe incompleteness results affect the philosophy of mathematics, particularly versions of formalism, which use a single system formal logic to define their principles. One can paraphrase the first theorem as saying the following:\nWe can never find an all-encompassing axiomatic system which is able to prove all mathematical truths, but no falsehoods.\nOn the other hand, from a strict formalist perspective this paraphrase would be considered meaningless because it presupposes that mathematical \"truth\" and \"falsehood\" are well-defined in an absolute sense, rather than relative to each formal system.\nThe following rephrasing of the second theorem is even more unsettling to the foundations of mathematics:\nIf an axiomatic system can be proven to be consistent and complete from within itself, then it is inconsistent.\nTherefore, to establish the consistency of a system S, one needs to use some other more powerful system T, but a proof in T is not completely convincing unless T's consistency has already been established without using S.\nAt first, G\u00f6del's theorems seemed to leave some hope\u2014it was thought that it might be possible to produce a general algorithm that indicates whether a given statement is undecidable or not, thus allowing mathematicians to bypass the undecidable statements altogether. However, the negative answer to the Entscheidungsproblem, obtained in 1936, showed that no such algorithm exists.\nThere are some who hold that a statement that is unprovable within a deductive system may be quite provable in a metalanguage. And what cannot be proven in that metalanguage can likely be proven in a meta-metalanguage, recursively, ad infinitum, in principle. By invoking such a system of typed metalanguages, along with an axiom of Reducibility \u2014 which by an inductive assumption applies to the entire stack of languages \u2014 one may, for all practical purposes, overcome the obstacle of incompleteness.\nNote that G\u00f6del's theorems only apply to sufficiently strong axiomatic systems. \"Sufficiently strong\" means that the theory contains enough arithmetic to carry out the coding constructions needed for the proof of the first incompleteness theorem. Essentially, all that is required are some basic facts about addition and multiplication as formalized, for example, in Robinson arithmetic Q. There are even weaker axiomatic systems that are consistent and complete, for instance Presburger arithmetic which proves every true first-order statement involving only addition.\nThe axiomatic system may consist of infinitely many axioms (as first-order Peano arithmetic does), but for G\u00f6del's theorem to apply, there has to be an effective algorithm which is able to check proofs for correctness. For instance, one might take the set of all first-order sentences which are true in the standard model of the natural numbers. This system is complete; G\u00f6del's theorem does not apply because there is no effective procedure that decides if a given sentence is an axiom. In fact, that this is so is a consequence of G\u00f6del's first incompleteness theorem.\nAnother example of a specification of a theory to which G\u00f6del's first theorem does not apply can be constructed as follows: order all possible statements about natural numbers first by length and then lexicographically, start with an axiomatic system initially equal to the Peano axioms, go through your list of statements one by one, and, if the current statement cannot be proven nor disproven from the current axiom system, add it to that system. This creates a system which is complete, consistent, and sufficiently powerful, but not computably enumerable.\nG\u00f6del himself only proved a technically slightly weaker version of the above theorems; the first proof for the versions stated above was given by J. Barkley Rosser in 1936.\nIn essence, the proof of the first theorem consists of constructing a statement p within a formal axiomatic system that can be given a meta-mathematical interpretation of:\np = \"This statement cannot be proven in the given formal theory\"\nAs such, it can be seen as a modern variant of the Liar paradox, although unlike the classical paradoxes it's not really paradoxical.\nIf the axiomatic system is consistent, G\u00f6del's proof shows that p (and its negation) cannot be proven in the system. Therefore p is true (p claims to be not provable, and it is not provable) yet it cannot be formally proved in the system. If the axiomatic system is \u03c9-consistent, then the negation of p cannot be proven either, and so p is undecidable. In a system which is not \u03c9-consistent (but consistent), either we have the same situation, or we have a false statement which can be proven (namely, the negation of p).\nAdding p to the axioms of the system would not solve the problem: there would be another G\u00f6del sentence for the enlarged theory. Theories such as Peano arithmetic, for which any computably enumerable consistent extension is incomplete, are called essentially incomplete.\nMain article: Mechanism (philosophy)#G\u00f6delian arguments\nAuthors including J. R. Lucas have debated what, if anything, G\u00f6del's incompleteness theorems imply about human intelligence. Much of the debate centers on whether the human mind is equivalent to a Turing machine, or by the Church\u2013Turing thesis, any finite machine at all. If it is, and if the machine is consistent, then G\u00f6del's incompleteness theorems would apply to it.\nHilary Putnam (1960) suggested that while G\u00f6del's theorems cannot be applied to humans, since they make mistakes and are therefore inconsistent, it may be applied to the human faculty of science or mathematics in general. If we are to assume that it is consistent, then either we cannot prove its consistency, or it cannot be represented by a Turing machine.\nAppeals and analogies are sometimes made to the incompleteness theorems in support of arguments that go beyond mathematics and logic. A number of authors have commented negatively on such extensions and interpretations, including Torkel Franz\u00e9n (2005); Alan Sokal and Jean Bricmont (1999); and Ophelia Benson and Jeremy Stangroom (2006). Bricmont and Stangroom (2006, p. 10), for example, quote from Rebecca Goldstein's comments on the disparity between G\u00f6del's avowed Platonism and the anti-realist uses to which his ideas are sometimes put. Sokal and Bricmont (1999, p. 187) criticize R\u00e9gis Debray's invocation of the theorem in the context of sociology; Debray has defended this use as metaphorical (ibid.).\nConsistency proof\nG\u00f6del's completeness theorem\nL\u00f6b's Theorem\nNon-standard model of arithmetic\nSelf-verifying theories\nTarski's indefinability theorem\nMinds, Machines and G\u00f6del\n^ The word \"true\" is used disquotationally here: the G\u00f6del sentence is true in this sense because it \"asserts its own unprovability and it is indeed unprovable\" (Smory\u0144ski 1977 p. 825; also see Franz\u00e9n 2005 pp. 28\u201333). It is also possible to read \"GT is true\" in the formal sense that primitive recursive arithmetic proves the implication Con(T)\u2192GT, where Con(T) is a canonical sentence asserting the consistency of T (Smory\u0144ski 1977 p. 840, Kikuchi and Tanaka 1994 p. 403)\n^ For example, the conjunction of the G\u00f6del sentence and any logically valid sentence will have this property.\n^ Here Flg(\u03ba) represents the theory generated by \u03ba and \"v Gen r\" is a particular formula in the language of arithmetic. \"Flg\" is from \"Folgerungsmenge = set of consequences\" and \"Gen\" is from \"Generalisation = generalization\" (cf Meltzer and Braithwaite 1962, 1992 edition:33-34).\n1931, \u00dcber formal unentscheidbare S\u00e4tze der Principia Mathematica und verwandter Systeme, I.

        "raw_content": "I love my nails. Janine, my nail tech put 2 feathers on my nails - one on each thumb! They're so cool and I love them! I am not one for putting decals on my nails (like flower or jewel stickers), but I will probably be doing these again. All she used were those feathers you can buy at the fishing stores - the ones you use to make fishing flys with. Awesome!\nWell there is only about 3 months left now until the wedding, and so it`s down to the crunch. Almost all the big stuff is planned, but it is amazing how much time and detail the little things take. I`m trying to finish the invitations this week and get them sent out, as well as work on the mason jar candles. I`m about half way done already - just need to frost another 24 jars. My sister is also helping me with this big project which I`ll post about separately. I feel kind of bad that I gave her this big project to work on - but she really wanted to help!\nAnyways, I at least feel like I am getting stuff done and I am not getting too stressed.\nSo it\u2019s now 2012, and already so much is planned for this year. I think it\u2019s safe to say that it\u2019s going to be one of my best years yet!\nSo much is happening in just the first 6 months, and it will be a year of many firsts.\nI will be having a Bridal Shower and Bachelorette Party in March which leads into my Wedding on April 7, 2011! This is sure to be the highlight of my year. I am so excited to marry my best friend Nick and be with him forever. I can\u2019t wait for our life together and grow a family with him. I also will be getting a new last name!\nWe are probably going on a honeymoon to Cuba after the wedding which is really cool. Cuba seems like a really beautiful place. I heard they have nice beaches and extremely nice people. We\u2019re only going to go for a week (I wanted to go for 2 weeks) as Nick will be busy with work and getting ready for school.\nNick is going back to school this year to go from an EMT to a Paramedic. He is going to try and get into PMA (it\u2019s an EMS school) which is his first choice. He took his EMT there, and really liked it. It\u2019s harder though, as you can\u2019t get below 80% on any test and are only aloud 3 re-writes\u2019 a year. You also have to write an entrance exam to get in which he will do in either April or May and they only take a certain amount of students He would start in June/July if he got into PMA. Also on the plus side, instead of it taking 2 years, they skip summer break and finish in 1 \u00bd years. The other option is to go to SAIT which would start in September. He will also be quitting his full time job in Coronation in order to go back to school. East Central EMS has been his first real EMS job so it\u2019s a little sad, but the good things outweigh the sad. I will be able to see him more, as he will be home more often (which I am REALLY happy about). He will be keeping his casual position with Calgary EMS and work as much as he can while he is back in school.\nAfter the wedding, Nick and I will be transitioning from the YSA ward to a family ward (church). I\u2019m really excited about this, as I\u2019m a little over the whole YSA scene. It was great, I had a lot of fun and meet many amazing people, but now I want to be around other people and young couples who share the same goals as us. We will be in the New Brighton ward and I heard it\u2019s a very young ward. Lots of young families with lots of little children.\nAlso this year, our house will be done and we can move into it a little after the wedding. I am so excited to have a place of our own and I can\u2019t wait to start decorating it the way I want too!\nI\u2019m excited for the Calgary Stampede this year as it will be their 100th anniversary. We will be for sure going. I just need to buy grandstand tickets \u2013 it\u2019s my favourite part of the Stampede! I also would like to try and go camping this summer. I don\u2019t want to do too much this summer as the spring is just so hectic. I think I am just going to treat this summer like a resting period.\nLike I said, this year will be a year of many firsts. First vacation as a married couple, first home, first Calgary Stampede as a married couple, first Christmas as a married couple in our home, etc. You get the idea.\nI\u2019ll also probably be making some changes to my blog to reflect the big changes happening in my life this year. So stay tuned!",

        "raw_content": "David Beckham Discusses His Plans To Bring A Soccer Franchise To Miami\nDavid Beckham may have retired from professional soccer, but his impact on the sport -- and its growth in the United States -- is far from over.\nThe former English national team captain, who played for the Los Angeles Galaxy on and off from 2007 to 2012, joined MLS commissioner Don Garber and Miami-Dade County Mayor Carlos Gimenez at a press conference on Wednesday in Miami.\nThere was considerable anticipation throughout the city, which last had an MLS team (the Miami Fusion) from 1998 through 2001 before that franchise folded. Below is a video of the considerable media and fan presence at Beckham's press conference.\nBeckham took questions from reporters on a variety of topics. He assured Miami residents that the franchise would not be asking for public funding and noted that city officials have promised the stadium will be downtown. In the clip below the 38-year-old talks about the need for investors, not just wealthy individuals but people with a passion for the game. One name that's been brought up as a possible investor, as reported by the Associated Press, is Miami Heat superstar LeBron James.\nBeyond investors, Miami's MLS team will need passionate fans, something that the Marlins have lacked in recent years. Perhaps as a demonstration of loyalty, and also to take in the scene, a group of diehard soccer fans showed up at the press conferences with some nifty chants.\nLandon Donovan: Video Games Made Me A Better Soccer Player\nLA Galaxy President Chris Klein Optimistic Hometown St. Louis Will Get MLS Team\nDavid Beckham, Don Garber, Los Angeles Galaxy, Miami, MLS, Soccer",

To that end there are signs all around us from in-your-face images and symbols, to headlines blared across the Internet, all showing that the final phase of the ultimate game plan, is here and is being implemented.\nIn the Hagmann and Hagmann show below from Friday, January 16, 2014, titled \"Dismantling The United States,\" we are informed of some of the major news events all pointing to that game plan and the steps being tken to prepare the masses to accept the changes that are about to occur. Once the dollar falls, the economy crashes, these events will rapidly unfold and those that have ignored the warnings will be surprised, others will sleep right through it and follow along like sheeps to the slaughter, but those that have watched, paid attention and prepared, may just survive.\nIn the video details a set of questions are asked and addressed within the show, including \"Who is behind the dismantling of the United States and the West? What forces are at work to take down the U.S. to create a global government? Why are people still believing in the Republican versus Democrat meme? Will we have presidential elections in 2016? How long will it be before the U.S. loses it's status as the power within the global economy? Are we seeing the power elite communicating with each other through images, pictues and symbols? What is behind the doctrine of destrtuction taking place against those who seek the truth?\"\nOne specific point is made by Doug Hagmann that I wish to highlight, and that is a group called Tavistock, which when researched, shows the nature of those behind the one world government and the NWO and the insidious implementation of an agenda that goes back decades.\nListen below, then go do your own research and if you haven't already...... start preparing.\nLabels: loss of liberty loss of sovereignty NWO Signs of the Times",

        "raw_content": "How Ad Exchanges Work\nI came across a great article by Josh Dreller in iMedia Connection not too long ago that gives a straightforward explanation of ad exchanges. In a nutshell, Josh states that more and more online inventory is being purchased via ad exchanges \u2013 platforms allowing advertisers to bid on impressions. As with paid search, exchange ad inventory is determined by what the market is willing to pay.\nBecause most of the transaction is automated, exchanges are very efficient for publishers to monetize previously unsold inventory, and for advertisers to buy inventory without middle men inflating costs The entire process takes less than one-third of a second and goes like this:\nAn online user opens a publisher\u2019s site.\nThe site\u2019s ad server recognizes an open ad space and puts it up for bid on the exchanges the publisher has contracts with. A bid is submitted and won by an advertiser. It\u2019s important to note that advertisers are not manually bidding on every impression in real-time. Just like paid search, advertisers choose targeting settings and a maximum bid for what they are willing to pay. They can then change bids and settings to optimize the schedule on an ongoing basis. Bids are generally handled on a CPM level with the most common types of targeting being contextual and demographic. For example, an advertiser could create a campaign that just targets automotive-related sites in California and bid accordingly for that traffic.\nThe exchange then sends the ad to the publisher\u2019s ad server and the server loads whichever creative version is deemed appropriate for the situation. For example, if it detects the end user is in Texas, there may be a specified ad to be served to that user.\nThe ad is served! Remember, the entire process has to happen virtually instantaneously to ensure a quality experience for a website user.\nCurrently there are only a handful of major ad exchanges including Ad Brite, AdECN ContextWeb, and DoubleClick. DSP\u2019s (Demand-side platforms) such as Turn, Invite Media (Google), MediaMath and Triggit have also appeared to help advertisers manage all of the exchange campaigns through a single interface.\nBased on their increased efficiency, the market share of exchange vs. traditional online display buying methods could grow quickly over the next several years. And, while not all inventory can be sold this way, it seems likely that these technologies will evolve with even more powerful capabilities in a very short time.\nFor the full article go to http://bit.ly/fbmm4u.\nDate: May 18, 2011 Author: LeAnn Dawson Comments: 0\tCategories: Digital Marketing Tags: Ad Exchange - CCT Advertising - DSP - Online - Web",

        "raw_content": "Einstein's \"The Electrodynamics of Moving Bodies\" is basically the very start of the entire space-time conversation.\nMany experts draw many serious conclusions from the paper, typically stating \"Relativity prove time and space are merged into space-time\", but few seem to check if or where the paper actually proves, or cites a proof of the existence of \"time\", as anything other than a useful idea.\nBut in my opinion, although the paper shows how and why a moving oscillator will be running slower than expected, this does not prove the papers blind assumption that this relates to , and proves the existence or need for an extra dimension of a thing called \"time\" to exist.\nYou can see the whole paper, and check for yourself (with no need for maths) it's proof, or not, of \"time\" in \"section 1 the definition of simultaneity\", here...\nThe small hand of a watch points a '7' and a train arrives at a station. These two things prove that objects can exist, move, and be compared... But without some other evidence, they don't prove there is also a 'future' and a 'past' and a thing called time that passes between these 'places'.\n09 Special Relativity.\u2018On the electrodynamics of moving bodies\u2019\n( also see > Does Relativity prove the past and future exist?\nand > \u2206 Einstein's Relativity. A breakdown of the first 9 sections of Relativity, Routledge edition).\nA full understanding of just what Einstein\u2019s first paper on relativity actually does prove, and does not prove is critical to anyone wanting to understand \u2018time\u2019 \u2013 or in my opinion the probable non-existence of time.\n\"A Brief History of Timelessness\", whether it's essence turns out to be basically right or wrong, is all about being very logical and meticulous in its analysis.\nre this, at this point, you the reader may think everything that could be said about Relativity has been said, and there is no way an outsider can add anything meaningful to the discussion. You may also think you have a reasonable, or very good understanding of Relativity at some level. So, concerning logic, at this point you should be clear as to whether you have first hand experience and familiarity of the paper \"On The Electrodynamics of Moving Bodies\" , or whether you have only in fact read other peoples accounts and conclusions drawn from it - i.e. you are accepting second hand interpretations.\nIf you are not familiar with the paper, then this analysis should be useful to you, and if you are familiar with the paper, think you have a good understanding of it, and assume \"On The Electrodynamics of Moving Bodies\" in some way confirms the existence of time, (as in 'passing' and having a 'direction', being a dimension etc), then you should have a clear reason for assuming section 1 'kinematics' shows times existence, as opposed to just describing an example of motion, ( a hand rotating on a dial ) and calling it \"time\".\nif you are familiar with OEMB, and have not considered the above, then this section may be very important to you, becasue a superficial understanding of any part of such an important paper, blushing over 'inconvenient details' is not logical or scientific, and makes all subsequent conclusions drawn from the paper as unreliable as our smallest misunderstanding of it's core.\nIt is very important to have a good understanding of this paper becasue the vast majority of informed, or professional opinion, seems to stem from, and be based on this first paper and the work following it. Therefore any oversights or incorrect assumptions held in this first paper may carry through subsequent work unchecked if not noticed at this early stage.\nCritically, it seems that may people assume Einstein's first paper proves that time exists.\nIf it can be shown that 'Electrodynamics' does not prove the existence of time, then anyone previously assuming it does has two basic options\n1- They can ignore the significance of the matter, and continue to build on the idea that time exists \u2018anyway\u2019, Or,\n2 - They can consider that logically all work based on the idea that \u2018special relativity\u2019 proves time should be reconsidered in a different light, unless the existence of time IS proven elsewhere.\nThe problem here is that unless certain key points, that Einstein did not prove, are proven elsewhere, then any statement about \u2018time\u2019 that is based on Einstein's relativity can be seen as possibly unfounded.\nThis is because in special relativity (or \u2018on the electro dynamics of moving bodies\u2019 Einstein's first 1905 relativity paper) Einstein assumes, but does not prove the existence of time. Specifically, at the start of the paper he refers to time, and the importance of being clear as to what we mean by time, but he does not then give a valid definition of time or a proof of time\u2019s existence.\nIn section 1 of \"Electrodynamics\" \"section 1 the definition of simultaneity\" the translated words are...\nSo it is suggested that we describe the motion of a \"material point\" as a function of \"the time\". But the problem is the small hand of a \"watch\" is just a material point attached to a motor.\nSo all the paper in fact suggests is\nwe describe the motion of a material point, as the values of its co-ordinates as functions of another material point (a moving pointer).\nJust motion, or motion and 'time'? - An analysis of section 1 of \u2018On the electro-dynamics of moving bodies\u2019.\nSo it is agreed that \u2018a mathematical description of this kind has no physical meaning unless we are quite clear as to what we understand by \u201ctime.\u201d\u2019 - and unless we can actually prove the 'physical' existence of time, because without this proof all discussions about 'time' are just actually about a useful mental tool, and not a real physically existing thing. \u2013 But Einstein\u2019s explanation of \u2018time\u2019 does not do this, as follows...\nWe have to take into account that all our judgments in which time plays a part are always judgments of simultaneous events.\nThe first problem here is the term \u2018simultaneous\u2019. The word \u2018simultaneous\u2019 implies that time exists, and that some events can happen at the same time, and thus that some events can happen at different times, and thus that \u2018different times\u2019 \u2018exist\u2019.\nThese seem legitimate assumptions, but the \u2018proof\u2019 or definition continues...\n\u2018If, for instance, I say, \u201cThat train arrives here at 7 o'clock,\u201d I mean something like this: \u201cThe pointing of the small hand of my watch to 7 and the arrival of the train are simultaneous events.\u201d.\nIn describing \u201cthe pointing of the small hand of my watch\u201d, Einstein is describing a \u2018motorised hand rotating about a numbered dial\u2019. He is then showing how he can compare the position of this object, the hand, to the position of another object, the train.\nBut here, there is an implication that the position of the \"rotating hand\", has something to do with another thing, called 'time'.\n(And thus, for example, that a scientist, might be looking at the position of, what is obviously just a simple strip of metal or plastic, and write down its position around the dial as a number, and claim, state and assume that this number is related to the \"passing\" of a thing called time).\nEinstein also suggests that the \u2018hand\u2019 pointing to the mark \u20187\u2019 and the train arriving (at a station) may be \u2018simultaneous\u2019 events , and that this relates to the idea of time, and shows time to be in some way a \u2018real\u2019 thing, not just a useful notion.\nHowever, 'all' Einstein has shown here is that motorised hands can rotate around numbered dials (if their motor is supplied with energy) and that \u2018motorised\u2019 trains can move, or stop along tracks, (if they also have energy available to them).\nIn pointing this out, Einstein is also suggesting or implying that extra to this energy and motion... there is a thing called \u2018time\u2019 which \u2018exists\u2019 and \u2018passes\u2019 in some way.\nHowever, very specifically, it seems that his work...\n-Does not prove* there is a thing called 'time'\n-Does not prove that this 'rotating hand' relates to, or shows the existence of a thing called 'time'\n-Does not prove that there is a \u2018past'\n-Does not prove there is \u2018a future\u2019\n-Does not prove time passes between these places\n-Does not prove time passes, or that 'Time' passes 'in one direction'\n-So, he does not prove that 'Time', and specifically \u2018other' 'times\u2019 - exist.\n-And, also does not prove that the idea of 'non-simultaneous events' can make sense.\n*Probe, technically one might say nothing can scientifically proven, but i mean as sure as you can sensible be sure of anything beyond a reasonable doubt, . The point being the paper makes nlitt\n(i.e. everything is obviously always 'somewhere' doing 'some thing'. Whether we think 'other times' exist, or if we think 'other times' do not exist - we must be doing this 'now', which only proves 'now' exists, and matter can be in formations in our minds. And even if we think we may think these things 'some other time'... we are always either doing that, or not doing that, now :^)\nNo matter how familiar we are with the above ideas (or their opposite), 'a lot of people being familiar with an idea' is not the same as a scientific proof of an idea. No matter how many people, and how established they are, as Feynman says \"If it doesn't agree with experiment, it's wrong\", (or in this case, if you don't have an experiment to prove the past and/or future etc exist, you may be on very shaky ground).\nAll of the above are just 'assumed' to be the case, probably by the author and readers. Which, given the many and varied conclusions drawn from this paper, and the literally countless subsequent works drawn from it, by many other people, is probably not acceptable.\nIn seeing this list the reader may have an impulse to immediately dismiss it as \u2018irrelevantly pedantic\u2019 etc \u2013 however, I advise you look at the list, and consider what actually is being casually being assumed, with what is actually proven, and also observe one's own urge to rush past or ignore such details. (And whether following this urge will really lead to a scientifically valid conclusion).\nIf we focus on the fact that Einstein does not prove the existence of \u2018the past\u2019 or the existence of \u2018the future\u2019, and neither does he show that \u2018 a thing called time exists and flows as things move\u2019 we can see that he probably \u2018assumed\u2019 that all these things naturally, or obviously existed, and assumed that the \u2018motorised hand on the numbered dial\u2019 was in some way related to them.\nWhat does 'simultaneous' mean, if anything?\nOne key error here is the use of the word 'simultaneous'.\nWhile it may seem obvious to us that some events happen 'simultaneously' and others do not. But this can be seen as an oversimplification, or invalid \u2018categorisation\u2019 of what we observe. Specifically, if an object is moving in an obvious or interesting way, then we \u2018say\u2019 it is \u2018doing something\u2019, but if an object is \u2018at rest\u2019 we consider it 'not to be doing anything'. This is clearly ridiculous because both things, and of course 'every thing' in the universe, are actually always doing something, whether you and I notice or care, or decide to call it an action or event, or not.\nIn the case of the watch hand, and the train, both are always doing something. The train may be moving or stopped, just as the watch hand may be moving or stopped. The train may be in any location in relation to the tracks (or any other object) , and likewise the \u2018watch\u2019 hand may be stopped or moving relative to the \u2018watch face\u2019, or any other object in the universe.\nAll things are always doing something \u2013 with the 'idea' of time in place, and overlaid onto what we observe, the words 'simultaneous' or 'non-simultaneous' seem to have meaning, and the very concepts seem to prove that time, and identical, or different 'times' must exist.\nHowever, looking at the world timelessly \u2013 i.e. considering \u2018what if thing JUST exist and move\u2019 (whatever that may imply if it is true) \u2013 we find that everything is always doing something now \u2013 i.e. that nothing is ever not doing anything now - and , simplistic as it sounds, we never actually observe a thing called time, or 'different' times.\nWe do observe one constantly changing environment - and we may describe this out of habit or social convention, as a 'collection or sequence of different times' - but this is all just semantics unless we can actually , directly prove that something like 'the' past actually really 'exists'.\nBecause if we cannot prove that something like 'the' past exists, then no matter how much we insist 'the idea of the past' makes sense, it is still true that if things just constantly existed and moved and changed 'now' (so to speak) this would also describe all that we observe - but without also suggesting, or proving the existence of an extra, and 'mysterious' and 'invisible' thing called 'time'.\nIn a sense then,if things just constantly existed and moved and change 'now', all 'events' are \u2018simultaneous\u2019 but we can also say there is nothing other than 'now' and thus nothing other than 'simultaneity' \u2013 so the term becomes redundant.\nWhat Special Relativity actually does prove.\nWhat Einstein is leading up to \u2013 and proves \u2013 in his discussion of \u2018time\u2019 and \u2018simultaneity\u2019 is the deduction through relativity \u2013 that \u2018moving clocks run slow\u2019, expressed as 'Time Dilation'. The problem with this statement arises if we assume the word 'clock' relates to something other than a machine that just and only proves that energy can be used to move a 'hand' at a steady rate ('now').\nWhat Einstein means by 'Time dilation' is that if we have two similar machines (clocks) with aligned hands, but some distance apart \u2013 physically moving one clock to the other clocks location will result in the 'rotating hands' becoming mis-aligned. But this is expressed as \u2018\u2019they will show different times\u2019. While it is an agreed and proven fact, that such machines will lose alignment in their displays (be they mechanical or digital etc), what is not proven or agreed is that\u2019 motorised hands on numbered dials prove the existence or flow of a thing called time.\nThus \u2018all\u2019 this behaviour proves is that moving things \u2018in this case machines\u2019, \u2018run slow\u2019 \u2013 and not that there is a past and there is a future and a thing called time that flows between them, and which flows between them more slowly for moving objects. It is also not proven that time exists, and is needed for things to move, and can be slowed, and as such will slow object within it if it is slowed.\nThis relates critically to the concept of time existing, and as such existing as a 'fourth dimension'. Fundamentally if there is no past and no future, then there are not 2 \u2018locations\u2019 between which a thing called \u2018time\u2019 can be said to flow, or \u2018span\u2019. And thus time cannot be said to exist or be an extra dimension.\nH.G.Wells, and the 'fourth dimension'.\nIt is worth noting here that the idea of time being seen in some way as a (fourth) 'dimension' did not actually originate from Einstein or other scientists, but from the famous novella writer H.G.Wells in 1895, 10 years before Einstein released 'Special Relativity'.\n\"It was Einstein, as every schoolchild knows, who first described time as \"the fourth dimension\" -- and every schoolchild is wrong. It was actually Wells who wrote, in The Time Machine, that\n\"there is no difference between Time and any of the three dimensions of Space, except that our consciousness moves along it\".\"\n(As I found out by reading John Gribben's excellent work,.See >> Time travel for beginners )\nSimilarly the concept of seeing space and time as being intermingled mathematically originated not directly from Einstein but from other mathematicians and scientists, such as Hermann Minkowski, and Hendrik Lorentz, re-analysing Einstein's work.\nHermann Minkowski, and space time.\nWhen Hermann Minkowski famously said...\n\"The views of space and time which I wish to lay before you have sprung from the soil of experimental physics, and therein lies their strength. They are radical. Henceforth space by itself, and time by itself, are doomed to fade away into mere shadows, and only a kind of union of the two will preserve an independent reality.\" (My Underlining)\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minkowski_space\nHe gave birth to the concept of 'Space-time'. It was in the beginning part of his address delivered at the 80th Assembly of German Natural Scientists and Physicians (September 21, 1908).\nAs such this quote was said as Minkowski had clearly taken on-board Einstein\u2019s first paper on relativity (\u2018Electrodynamics...\u2019 1905), and thus seems to have initially assumed this paper in some way proved the existence of \u2018Time\u2019 to some degree. While it can only actually be seen that the paper \u2018proves\u2019 matter and motion exist \u2013 and then explains relativistic effects in terms of a thing called time existing.\nThe \u2018Michelson\u2013Morley experiment\u2019\nAmongst the \u201cexperimental physics,\u201d Minkowski refers to here will be the \u2018Michelson\u2013Morley experiment\u2019 ...as performed in 1887 by Albert Michelson and Edward Morley... Its results are generally considered to be the first strong evidence against the theory of a luminiferous aether and in favour of special relativity.\n(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michelson%E2%80%93Morley_experiment - 1881_and_1887_experiments)\nHowever, it can be seen that the Michelson\u2013Morley experiment, can almost certainly be said to show that the speed of light is indeed constant, independent of the speed of the observer, or the speed of the source of light, and thus that this observation supports the essence of relativistic effects.\nBut, the Michelson\u2013Morley experiment does not in any way prove that there is a \u2018past, or that there is \u2018a future\u2019, or that there is a thing called \u2018time\u2019 which passes between the past and future, \u2018whos\u2019 existence is necessary for things to be able to exist and move in the universe!\nSo,Minkowski's statement was based on his understanding of Einstein\u2019s 1905 paper (as discussed here), and as such the same logic applies to Minkowski's statement, as to Einstein relativity, which is that,\nIF time exists then then Minkowski is correct that only 'a kind of union of space and time exist'.\nBut just saying this this doesn\u2019t prove that time exists, and Minkowski did not prove elsewhere that the past,the future, or time exist.\nAn invalid chain of evidence and assumptions.\nSo we have a tricky situation, where Einstein writes relativity as if time exists, then Minkowski interprets Michelson\u2013Morley, as IF Einstein has proven time exists, and thus as if Michelson\u2013Morley\u2019s work confirms this.\nThis situation gets even worse and more \u2018incestuous\u2019 because as Einstein developed his work on 'General Relativity' he incorporated Minkowski's concept of Space-Time.\nThus the idea the the 'existence of time' had been proven, and that Special Relativity, General Relativity, Physical experiments (Michelson\u2013Morley etc), and outside independent work (Minkowski, Lorentz, Fitzgerald etc) had all concurred and confirmed the assumption appears to be correct. While in fact it involves a lot of invalid feedback and assumptions, which hide the fact that no where in the 'chain of logic, reason, observation or experiment' does anyone actually prove the existence of or need for 'time' or any of its components or functions. (I.e. of some thing extra to energy, matter, warped space,and motion 'just' existing 'only' now).\n(see >> 'just' existing'\nThe source of the misunderstanding, Einstein\u2019s own assumptions relating to time.\nEinstein may have casually, or automatically \u2018assumed\u2019 that his examples of motion (the train, and the motorised hand) related to some kind of a proof of an extra thing called time because he may have looked at 2 main apparent sources of \u2018other evidence\u2019. Specifically,\n1- the changing and accumulating contents of his own internal mind,( and the changes of his own body)\n2- the changing and evolving external word around him\nWhile these collections of evidence may seem to prove the existence or flow, and direction of \u2018time\u2019, in fact, apart or together, they can be shown to ONLY prove that matter exists, moves and changes \u2018now\u2019 ( to use a redundant term ).\n(See >> \u2206 Common assumed, but invalid, 'proofs' of Time.)\nEinstein's, and our own, minds, when functioning as they should, do show an accumulating collection of memories, knowledge, and understanding, in a \u2018forwards\u2019 progression. Even as they deteriorate we can be said to progressively \u2018lose\u2019 information. So this seems to suggest the existence and progression or one way flow and direction of \u2018time\u2019. However, if we ask the critical question...\n'What if things can JUST exist and change?'\nWe find that all our minds ever directly prove to us is that matter can \u2018move and change\u2019. And that this movement, change, and interaction can result in accumulations of matter, or matter in-formation. And that this movement and change can result in the dis-integration of collections of matter, or matter in-formation.\nWhat our minds do NOT prove is \u2018that there is a future\u2019 or that there is \u2018a past\u2019 or that there is a thing called time which flows between these place and which must also exist for things to be able to move and change.\nSimilarly if we look at the world around us, we can see formations of matter accumulating, or integrating and dispersing and disintegrating, and this may SEEM to also show a flow and direction of a thing called time. But at no point does the matter around us actually prove anything other than that matter can exist, and move, and change and accumulate, and organise, disintegrate and disperse.\nIF we force the notion or 'framework' of time onto what we see, then we will see that this works, and makes sense. But it is critical to see that just applying this framework or idea of time, and seeing that it works, is not actually the same as having a physical, experimental proof that time exists as more than just a useful idea. Specifically, seeing that the idea works is not the same as actually proving the \u2018existence of the past or future, or time, or any other supposedly existing component of time, in any actual way at all.\n(Similarly, seeing that the idea of 'the Euro' works, and enables hundreds of millions of people to cooperate and do business, is not the same as proving that 'Euros' really exist in the universe, and that as such they are not just a useful idea, but were 'discovered' by mankind.\nWhat about the Big Bang etc?\nIt may well be that all the matter in the universe started off appearing from nothing in an infinitesimally small point, and it may well be that all of this matter is exploding outwards in an unstoppable one way explosion ending in a complete \u2018cold death\u2019. And all of this action may have a clear one way direction to it \u2013 but none of that would prove that \u2018there is a past\u2019 or that \u2018there is a future\u2019 or that there is a thing called time which exists and flow between them.\n(See > \u2206 Entropy, Is just Entropy.)\nAt this point the reader may want to fall back on the idea that \u2018we all know time doesn\u2019t exist in this sense, \u2018time is JUST the word we use to describe al the motion and change around us. If this is the case it is critical to see that this is NOT what Einstein and all the other experts on time and specifically \u2018space time\u2019 are saying at all. The current view, and Einstein\u2019s view in relativity, upon which most current expert views are based , is that\ntime exists\ntime has a direction\ntime may be merged with space\nspace-time can be slowed, stretched or warped or folded back on itself\nspace time may be travelled forwards \u2013 according to special relativity\nspace time may be travelled backward \u2013 according to general relativity\nand so on (see video links to the generally held professional position)\n(See also >> \u2206 Timeless v.Time distinctions (Rhetoric and Semantics).)\nThe reader should also note that it is invalid to imply in the same breath that \u2018time really has all of the above features, but it does not really have any of them, and it is mysterious\u2019.\nNote also that In his papers Einstein does not say words to the effect of \u2018time does not exist, only motion does, but although it will be extremely confusing and unnecessary, lets talk about time as if it exists, and pretend it can be merged with space\u2019. So the idea that Einstein clearly saw and could prove that 'time is just a useful idea' is not confirmed.Though it is clear he suspect the distinctions of time to be 'persistent illusions'.\n(SEE >> \u2206 Einsteins 'Distinctions'.)\nIn conclusion, Einstein may have thought he was describing and discussing time. But if his assumption that \u2018time\u2019 exists was based on watching a motorised hand on a numbered dial, or considering his own changing mind and body, or considering the moving and changing state of the world around him (all things that only prove matter can exist and move etc) then this, and other assumptions about time, by other authors based on relativity may need to be seriously reconsidered.\n( PLEASE note, this section needs to be proof read and rewritten in places, I have written the whole piece several times \u2013 this version is included for completeness as the site is being constructed. M.M.\nNotes \u2013 RW ABOVE- IF Einstein assumed his reference to a motorised hand was a valid proof that there is a past and a future and a thing called time which flows between them was based on the assumption that his own internal memories or the state of the world around him also suggested time exists...then ...\nSpecifically he choose to compare the position of the \u2018hand\u2019 to some of the markings on the dial behind it, and he chooses to compare the position of the train with the position of the station at which the train arrives. In each case he could have ...)\nfurther note on \"On The Electrodynamics of Moving Bodies\"\nDefinition of Simultaneity, paragraph 4\nhere the paper says...\n\"It might appear possible to overcome all the difficulties attending the definition of \u201ctime\u201d by substituting \u201cthe position of the small hand of my watch\u201d for \u201ctime.\u201d And in fact such a definition is satisfactory when we are concerned with defining a time exclusively for the place where the watch is located; but it is no longer satisfactory when we have to connect in time series of events occurring at different places, or\u2014what comes to the same thing\u2014to evaluate the times of events occurring at places remote from the watch\".\nThe problem is this is written with the assumption that a thing called time exists and passes as matter in the universe exists and is doing something somewhere - but it is essential to realize that whether this assumption is wrong or right no reason or evidence is given to support this in electrodynamics , and thus no subsequent idea built on electrodynamics (eg 4d block time) is valid unless it cites some other evidence to support eh idea a thing called time actually exists, and is not just conjecture.",

        "raw_content": "Dad, Charles:\nBorn in Gabon, West Africa in 1972 and arrived in Toronto in 1974. Although Charles is now an impressive 186 kg (410 lb) silverback, he is actually quite shy and very peaceful. He is an excellent father but is in his golden years which means he is less active and doesn\u2019t horseplay as much with his kids as he once did. Charles, like other silverbacks, lives with the constant need to be watchful of his group, ready to defend them with his life if necessary. In 1995 Charles achieved world-wide fame and raised $40,000 towards his new habitat with the exhibition and sale of his abstract expressionist painting.\nMom, Ngozi:\nNgozi was born on March 18, 1998 to Amanda (one of Toronto Zoo's original gorillas) and Vip who both currently reside at the Woodland Park Zoo in Seattle. She arrived at the Toronto Zoo in 2008 and was introduced to the troop within a few months of her arrival; she has become the most dominant female of the troop. Ngozi is a very sweet, gentle, yet confident gorilla. When Ngozi and Charles first met, there was an instant attraction between them. Ngozi continues to be respectful of him which is a very important aspect of gorilla behaviour. Ngozi's first baby, Nassir, was born on September 2, 2009 and her second offspring, Nneka, was born on January 10, 2014. This baby is her third offspring, Charlie, born June 7, 2018. All three offspring were sired by Charles.\nSister, Nneka\nNneka, born January 10, 2014 to Charles and Ngozi, is a gorilla toddler and her personality is really taking shape. She enjoys interacting with familiar keepers but is shy with new people and will run to her mother for protection. Nneka is always busy: she likes to explore and examine her surroundings especially new enrichment items. It\u2019s not unusual to hear her banging things together and making lots of noise while she is waiting for her breakfast.\nBrother, Nassir\nBorn September 2, 2009 to Charles and Ngozi, is still considered a youngster, but he is maturing at a fast pace. Nassir was a great big brother and was very entertaining for his baby sister Nneka, often carrying her and playing with her under the watchful eye of mom. Although still a bit of a jokester, often showing off his playful side, he has the serious undertones that his mother exhibits and has a dominant personality, which should suit him well as he grows up to possibly run a troop of his own someday. Nassir currently lives in a bachelor group with Sadiki.\nJosephine was born in Gabon, West Africa in 1971. She continues to astound keepers with her intelligence: nothing ever goes unnoticed by her. Keepers have to be careful as to what they leave near the gorilla habitat, as Josephine is a master of fashioning tools to grab interesting things. She is usually good about trading back the item for a treat \u00e2\u20ac\u201c but it rarely ever comes back in one piece. Jo is quite the protective gorilla, often sitting near the glass. She has quite a bit of silver along her head and back, often being mistaken for a silverback.\nJohari was born on May 12, 2001 to Josephine and Charles. She was hand raised by keepers for the first six months of her life due to the fact that her mom does not produce breast milk. She is very close with her mother and they share many similarities. Her bond with her mother is very similar to what might occur in the wild. However, living with her father, Charles, is very unusual: silverback males rarely retain leadership of a troop long enough for their daughters to become mature.\u00c2 Johari can often be seen clutching a piece of clothing or stuffed toy that the keepers have given her; none of the other gorillas show any interest in these items, but Johari loves them.\nSadiki was born on March 7, 2005 to Samantha and Charles, making him Johari\u2019s half-brother. He is a very outgoing, energetic male with a very dominant personality. He is maturing quickly, almost as large as his father now, and will surely outweigh Charles within a year. As he matures, the hair on his back is starting to turn silver \u00e2\u20ac\u201c the characteristic that gives silverback males their name. He is still in that in-between stage where he often acts like a kid but wants the respect that a silverback is entitled. He will make a fine troop leader one day. He currently lives in the bachelor group with Nassir.",

With a high mountain ridge to the east, as well as the west, Chumphon is vulnerable to monsoonal rains from the Gulf. There are two distinct seasons: the rainy season from June until January, and summer from February to May. The three rivers of Taphao, Chumphon and Lang Suan bring regular, year-round flows of water to Chumphon.\nRiches on Land and by the Sea\nIts proximity to the Gulf of Thailand means that the main occupation of Chumphon folk is agriculturally based in the fertile plains between the mountains where there is high humidity and good quality soil. The areas main income stems from cultivating par? rubber, palm oil, fruits and coffee. Most of Thailand\u2019s coffee is grown in Chumphon. A wide variety of fruit is on sale alongside highways, such as Leb Meu Nang (cooking banana), pineapple from the Sawi district, longan from Lang Suan district, and durian and zalacca palm.\nChumphon is the first of Thailand\u2019s southern provinces encountered when driving south, often considered less interesting than neighboring provinces such as Prachuap Khiri Khan, Surat Thani, Phang-nga and Phuket. Normally, tourists flow to destinations further south. However, Chumphon is the gateway to the south and has a number of natural attributes of interest ranging from high mountain ranges, mangrove forests, offshore islands and fertile coral reefs \u2013 especially those found in Mu Koh Chumphon Marine National Park.

It holds a vast range of people and cultures, colors and tastes, and complex history. Thankfully for travelling birders, it is also an excellent birding location. Birds are not persecuted, and therefore are abundant and tame. India is also perhaps the best mammal-watching location in the world outside of Africa. There is excellent Himalayan foothill birding, plains birding for subcontinental scrub birds and a bounty of waterbirds, boat trips for scarce riverine species, and of course the fabled tiger parks.\nThis was a custom trip arranged for a group of friends who have taken many trips with Tropical Birding. The group opted for a quick pre-tour that took in the cultural wonders of Jaipur, plus the impressive desert around Jaisalmer. They even notched up a few good birds including the huge and critically endangered Indian Bustard. For the birding portion of the trip, there were basically two goals: find as many new birds as possible for the two keen birders on the trip, and simply to soak in the mammals, birds, and different environments for the remainder of the group. This was not a tour where we tried to rack up a huge bird list; our birding was targeted, and we spent a lot of time watching and photographing mammals.",

Woot! I won the first issue of The Sandwalk Adventures, the book about Charles Darwin discussing evolutionary theory with a follicle mite living in his eyebrow. Odd concept, but it got great reviews and looks really cute. I always meant to get around to checking it out but never did, so I'm really looking forward to this. Thanks, David!\nThis doesn't exactly make up for not winning Powerball on Wednesday night, but I'll gladly take it just the same.\nIn other news, people really seem to be in an uproar over that new Carl's Jr. TV ad featuring Paris Hilton, don't they? I saw the ad online the other day (we don't have Carl's Jr. in Rhode Island, and I was curious to see what all the furor was about), and I have to say, the real issue in my mind isn't the content of the ad, because there are actually a few positive aspects being overlooked here. First, given Ms. Hilton's reputation, it's actually pretty tame. She's just washing a car in an allegedly sexy manner and more or less fellating a sandwich; we should be thankful she isn't doing anything truly obscene with the sponge, a torque wrench and the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, you know?\nSecond, it promotes the idea that Paris Hilton actually eats. Given the countless misguided teen girls who probably worship her and may go to dangerous lengths to look as waifish as she does, that's probably not a bad image to convey.\nThird, and perhaps most importantly, in terms of actual content, it isn't any worse than a Whitesnake video. If society could withstand those without crumbling (and though it was an undoubtedly close call, we're all still here), the human race can persevere this time, too.\nI think the real issue here is the ad just doesn't do it's job. In order for the concept to work on you, you need to find the woman attractive. I think she's pretty repellent, myself, as do most people I know, come to think of it. I honestly believe the reason a lot of people think she's sexy is because we're continually told that she is; I just don't get it. Anyway, it sure as hell doesn't make me want to eat a Carl's Jr. hamburger.\nWhat does make me want to eat a Carl's Jr. hamburger is the burger itself. I mean, good lord, did you see that thing? Sweet Jebus, that looks like one huge, tasty burger. I thought the idea of a fast food chain selling burgers for $6 was pretty ridiculous at first, but I totally get it now. Carl's Jr., one day one of your burgers will reside briefly in my tummy, and that'll be a good day. And if you also sell Mr. Pibb, I just may have to move in.\nI guess the idea behind this commercial is that we, the horny American public, are supposed to wish that we were the burger that Paris Hilton appears to be orally pleasuring. Maybe it's just me, maybe my priorities are way the hell out of whack, but honestly, I wish I was the person with the burger. If that means being Paris for a little while, so be it.\nJust not when she's making home movies.",

        "title": "Turkish Politics in Action: US State Department Releases Human Rights Report",
        "raw_content": "The United States Department of State released its annual set of Country Reports on Human Rights Practices on Tuesday. Largely citing work conducted by a variety of human rights organizations, the summary of the report's findings of human rights practices in Turkey is excerpted below:\nThe government generally respected the human rights of its citizens; however, serious problems remained in several areas. During the year human rights organizations documented a rise in cases of torture, beating, and abuse by security forces. Security forces committed unlawful killings; the number of arrests and prosecutions in these cases was low compared with the number of incidents, and convictions remained rare. Prison conditions remained poor, with problems of overcrowding and insufficient staff training. Law enforcement officials did not always provide detainees immediate access to attorneys as required by law. Some government and military officers at times undermined the judiciary's independence, and the overly close relationship of judges and prosecutors continued to hinder the right to a fair trial. Excessively long trials were a problem. The government limited freedom of expression through the use of constitutional restrictions and numerous laws, including articles of the penal code prohibiting insults to the government, the state, \"Turkishness,\" or the institution and symbols of the republic. Limitations on freedom of expression expanded to the Internet, as Turkish courts on several occasions ordered telecommunications providers to block access to Web sites. Non-Muslim religious groups continued to face restrictions on practicing their religion openly, owning property, and training leaders. Violence against women, including honor killings and rape, continued to be a widespread problem. Child marriage was a problem. Police corruption contributed to trafficking in women and children to, from, and within the country for sexual exploitation.\nThe rise in cases of torture and abuses by security forces is disturbing and is documented to have occured in spite of recent efforts to curtail rights violations by re-structuring forces so as to provide create more accountability and transparency. The reports also includes significant criticism of the judiciary and notes the restrictions on freedom of expression that have attracted the attention of international press.\nEarlier this January, a report of judgments made by the European Court of Human Rights found Turkey to be the largest violator of the European Convention of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms within the Court's jurisdiction.\nLabels: European Court of Human Rights, Freedom of Expression, Human Rights, United States",

        "raw_content": "Ali Gunertem \u2013\nTerry McAuliffe and I go back a long way. In 1991, my travel agency, AIM Travel, serviced Terry\u2019s law firm McAuliffe-Kelly-Rafaelli\u2019s travel needs. I was in Terry\u2019s office at least three times a week, delivering airline tickets. In 1995, Terry was with President Clinton\u2019s team, helping him to get reelected. I was there again with my cousin Sahir Erozan to raise money and host events at our family restaurant, called Cities, in Washington, D.C. We have done fund raisers, presidential dinners, inauguration parties and Terry did not miss any of them. They were his events!\nIn the first half of the 2000\u2019s, I was away from all this and busy starting a family. Coincidentally and \u2013luckily-- I missed the last miserable eight years where Democrats were only a footnote. Then Terry reappeared, chairing the Democratic Party and then-Senator Hillary Clinton\u2019s presidential bid. Once the dust settled after the presidential elections, I read in the Washington Post that Terry is running for Governor of Virginia.\nThis is my own backyard: the state of Virginia! Since the current Governor Tim Kaine got the appointment to chair the DNC from President Obama, the governor\u2019s seat is up for grabs. This mid-term election is scheduled for November 2009. For the Democratic primary, which will take place in June 2009, in addition to Terry, the candidates are Brian J. Moran, a former state delegate from Alexandria and Rep. R. Creigh Deeds from Bath County. On the Republican side there is only one candidate, former attorney general Bob McDonnell. Today, here I am again, this time to help Terry out and get elected.\nThe company I work for is the only Green and Carbon Natural Telecom Company in the U.S, BetterWorld Telecom, and it happens to be located in Northern VA. Since I work for a green company I figured I could help him a great deal with the upcoming and happening green movement.\nTurkofAmerica readers know that I have been writing about Turkish-American participation in US local elections for quite some time now. The timing of my last article about election strategies for Turkish Americans could not be any better. (You can read the previous article http://www.turkofamerica.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=484&Itemid=1)\nThe time is now. Get involved! I ask all Turkish-American voters in VA to rally behind Terry McAuliffe. There are so many reasons. One important reason is Terry is a Get \u2018er Done guy. If Terry decides to do something he gets it done. He is on the right side of issues like jobs, green jobs, education, energy, and bringing new business to VA. There is another big reason that he needs our help. Politics is politics but I can guarantee you that Terry will be fair to Turkish American concerns. He is very familiar with Turkey and, in his own words, \u201cIstanbul is my favorite city in the world.\u201d He has been there with former congressman Gephardt, and played a huge role in Clinton visits, both those of the president and of first lady Hillary Clinton.\nTerry McAuliffe is good for our state because he is a no-nonsense guy. He won\u2019t climb the wall, he will burst through it. He is not a politician and he never was one; he never ran for office and never got elected. He is simply a determined entrepreneur who wants to make our state very competitive for jobs and business while improving education and energy issues. I am all for that. When our state was run like a business during the administration of former Gov. Mark Warner, now (D) US Senator from the state of VA, it was a golden era. I am sure Terry can take our state there again.\nGet \u2018er Done, Terry.\nGet ?er Done\nMore in this category: \u00ab Governor Paterson Welcomes Turkish Investors Election Strategy for Turkish American Voters \u00bb",

Since 2009 TCA has taken more than 155 members of Congress and senior staffers to Turkey and surrounding countries. This delegation, comprised of 14 Congressional staffers, first visited Ankara where the group had the honor of participating in a wreath-laying ceremony at Anitkabir, the mausoleum of Mustafa Kemal Atat\u00fcrk. The delegation also participated in high-level meetings with U.S. and Turkish officials, including the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Ministry of Economy, members of Parliament and the Turkish Cooperation and Coordination Agency (TIKA). These meetings allowed the staffers to engage in an active dialogue on the current state of U.S.-Turkey relations, Turkey\u2019s foreign policy, and its booming economy.

        "title": "Contest #2: 31 Questions About",
        "raw_content": "Contest #2: 31 Questions About\nI\u2019m exhausted. It\u2019s a lot of work collecting and answering 31 questions from you folks. But it\u2019s also a lot of fun. \ud83d\ude42\nThat\u2019s the number I ended up with after announcing Contest #2 last week. As I mentioned in the comments, some of the questions were off-topic, and I\u2019ve skipped those to focus on questions about U2 \u2013 A Diary.\nSo, without further ado, here\u2019s the full group interview of 31 questions and answers \u2026 followed by the announcement of the winner \u2026 and a quick preview of the next contest.\nRachel Shattuck: Which member of the band would you be most likely to \u201cburn at the stake,\u201d so to speak, following the research and writing of your book, U2 \u2013 A Diary? Alternately, or in addition, which member of U2 would you most likely want to be best friends with after your experience of extensive research into the life of the band? Why?\nMy thoughts on the individual band members didn\u2019t really change at all during the research and writing. I remember being frustrated on a few occasions with Bono\u2019s spotty memory and his penchant for embellishing stories the more he retells them, but that was minor and temporary. I\u2019ve always felt that different parts of my own personality are similar to each of the band members, and that didn\u2019t change because of anything I learned while working on the book.\nLisa Zeitlinger: I am placing items in a time capsule for a future generation to see. I want to put something in there that will show them the impact U2\u2019s music had and what made them so special in our time. Why should your book, U2-A Diary, be the one chosen to go in?\nI don\u2019t think my book should be the one thing to go in, but I do think it should be one of the things to go in. To see U2\u2019s impact and show what made them special, I think you need things like the Red Rocks and Zoo TV DVDs, maybe the Live Aid and Amnesty Tour performances on video, a video of one of the Madison Square Garden shows after 9/11, and a video collage showing Bono\u2019s humanitarian work and speeches. And then you could include a copy of U2 \u2013 A Diary because it would explain and add a fan\u2019s perspective on how all those things fit together. I suppose I cheated a bit on this answer, but you can\u2019t leave out the audio and visual aspects of U2 and really explain them.\nAndrew: If Bono were to get the christmas he deserves, will your book be under his tree?\nWell, I suppose so, since it\u2019s probably about the only thing he doesn\u2019t already own. \ud83d\ude42\nArlene Pelayo: This was obviously a huge undertaking which I\u2019m guessing consumed quite a bit of your personal and family life, Matt! Was there ever a point in which you felt overwhelmed and thought about abandoning the project entirely?\nOverwhelmed: Yes. Abandoning the project: No. I couldn\u2019t abandon it, because I signed a contract and made a commitment. There was a point in October/November 2007 where I really thought I would not make the deadline. I wrote about it in this post \u2014 75 Days To Go \u2014 and you can probably sense my frustration and fear. But I remember sometime in November just walking out of my office and saying to my wife, \u201cI\u2019m gonna finish it on time.\u201d That was the first point I was sure I\u2019d make the deadline.\nJeremy: In writing U2-A Diary, what is the funniest/most surprising thing you learned about one of the band members?\nWhen I interviewed Chas de Whalley, he told some great stories about the early days in the studio with U2. He produced their first two singles, and this was when U2 wasn\u2019t \u2026 umm \u2026 very skilled musically. He told a story about how they really struggled to record \u201cOut Of Control,\u201d and that Larry kept screwing up the drums and that made the whole band fall apart. Here\u2019s the rest of his quote from the book:\n\u201cHe [Larry] would go out of time, and because he went out of time, none of the band came back in properly. The track would fall apart. So I just kept saying, \u2018This isn\u2019t good enough, we have to do it again.\u2019 I remember Bono saying, \u2018You can\u2019t be right. Larry\u2019s had lessons with the best drummer in Ireland, and he can\u2019t be playing it wrong!\u2019 And I was going, \u2018He is!'\u201d\nWe had a great conversation, and that story totally cracked me up. You can picture Bono doing that\u2026.\nOptimaX: Someone is going to write a book. It will be called -\u201cMatt McGee\u201d A Diary-. The book is about you and covers a diary for all (and only!) those days you have worked on U2 A Diary. Who would YOU want to write that book?\nThat would be the poorest-selling book of all time, that\u2019s for sure. I\u2019ll say Neil McCormick. He might be able to make it interesting for my family, but I don\u2019t think anyone else would read it. \ud83d\ude42\nErica: Bono\u2019s reputation for recall is a bit notorious. Did you find in your research that this reputation is justified? And if so, how much extra time and effort did it cost you?\nOh, yeah. I kinda answered this above\u2026. It happened a lot, and not just with Bono. It\u2019s not fair, I suppose, to expect the band to remember the exact dates and details of things that happened 20-30 years ago. I barely remember what I was doing last week! But yes, the research was like one continual game of Is it worth it to really dig into this story/event and spend time figuring it out, or should I move on?\nI spent a ton of time digging into the Shalom story, which extends for about five years in the book. The band never really spoke much about it until the past five years or so, which made getting the sequence of events tough. But, with some help from a couple friends and some newly discovered articles from the early \u201980s, I think the book tells that story as accurately as possible, despite Bono\u2019s reputation for poor recall. \ud83d\ude42\nJason: Do you plan to maintain your notes as the band\u2019s career continues and release updated versions of your book in the future?\nThere\u2019s no guarantee that the book will be updated, but I am keeping track of 2008 and have no plans to stop. I think if the book sells well, and continues to get good reviews, we\u2019ll probably do an update some day.\nKeir: Does your Diary concern itself at all with U2\u2019s torturous way of making sausages? The band has stated numerous times in their career that the studio recording process is often a trying time for them, to varying degrees. Did you get any insight into what seems to be a familiar progression by now?\nThere are some stories and quotes in there that speak to the way they make music and why it takes so long these days. But, to be frank, if you pay close attention to the media coverage of U2, you\u2019ve probably heard most of it before. The book is more about facts and events, and not so much an investigation of how they turn musical ideas into albums (and why it takes so long).\nHarry: Did you enjoy writing this book, or did it become more like a job after some point?\nI loved it! Even in the \u201cI feel overwhelmed\u201d times, I was loving it. I tried to write a book about U2 fans in the mid-1990s, but that fell apart after about two years of work. There was no way I wasn\u2019t going to enjoy this, knowing that it was going to see the light of day as long as I hit my deadline.\nCristiano: What has changed in your perception of the band after doing research for the book? Is there any aspect of U2\u2019s history that you learned to appreciate that you didn\u2019t before you started?\nI learned a lot about 1986, and have a better appreciation for what was going on during the making of The Joshua Tree. I tracked down one of the men that was with Bono and Ali in Central America and got some excellent background on that trip \u2014 a lot of new details. And a fan in New Zealand named Scott Cleaver sent me a big envelope full of press clippings related to the death of Greg Carroll and U2\u2019s participation at his funeral. Those two events were back-to-back in the summer of 1986, and so many songs on The Joshua Tree developed from those two events.\nMatthew Atkin: In your research for U2 \u2013 A Diary, what rumour that commonly circulates among the online U2 community did you find the hardest to verify?\nI\u2019m still disappointed that I was unable to confirm if Bono ever played that chess match against Garry Kasparov after Paul McGuinness won the opportunity in a 1993 charity auction. Maybe some day we\u2019ll all get an answer to that!\nMarcy Gaston: As a Larry Mullen admirer (I\u2019m female, can you blame me?), I have a question for you. Did you ever get to the bottom of why he grew his hair out for Vertigo?\nHehehehe. No. I\u2019m pretty sure there\u2019s no mention of any band member\u2019s hair in the book. Sorry about that. But we do talk about Larry\u2019s wrist and back problems a fair bit!\nKaitlin Ann: Now that you\u2019ve spent countless hours researching the band, what are three questions that still stick in the back of your mind that you want to ask them?\n1. Bono, did you really throw a bag filled with dog manure at one of your teachers?\n2. Bono, did you ever have that chess match against Garry Kasparov?\n3. The rest of you, tell me more about what happened with Chris Thomas during the Atomic Bomb recording sessions.\nCurt Murdy: As a grandfather who grew up with U2 in my college days (\u201979-83) and then stuck with them at every step in their/my journey through life, is there a sentence or paragraph in U2-A Diary that my granddaughter could someday read and say, \u201cI now understand\u201d?\nI don\u2019t think anyone could sum up U2 in a sentence or paragraph. But, I\u2019d like to think your granddaughter could read the Introduction that I wrote and say that she understands. I\u2019m pretty proud of how that turned out. So, how about reading a page, not just a sentence or paragraph? \ud83d\ude42\nJavier: My question is in regards to the separation of your own deeply entrenched love for various thing U2 and putting that aside to create an even handed, objective telling of their history. Did you find at times you had difficulty with certain eras or events in particular? And how did you deal with your own bias?\nIt was actually pretty easy, because I decided at the beginning \u2014 and my editor agreed \u2014 that there wouldn\u2019t be much editorializing in the telling of the dates/events. In a book that tries to tell the history of one of the all-time great bands, my opinions don\u2019t really matter, y\u2019know? I probably do a little bit of editorializing in the introductions to each year, but I think that\u2019s needed to keep the story together.\nPlus, I come from a journalism background \u2014 spent seven years working in newspaper/TV/radio jobs. So being an unbiased reporter isn\u2019t new to me. It\u2019s how we do things on @U2, too. So, it wasn\u2019t a challenge to keep my own biases out of the book.\nClaus Brinch Sorenson: You just put me through an hour long creative, philosofic, metaphoric, mindexpanding process, hoping to end up with a question that would put you through a similar process. All I ended up with, was wondering, what might have been your intention and reason for this kind of contest?\n\ud83d\ude42 To get more fans talking about the book, thinking about the book, and learning about the book. And, hopefully, that translates to more people wanting to buy the book.\nRobert Perry: Q magazine\u2019s review opens with two citations from your book \u2013 the first, historic and rock-\u2018n\u2019-roll-related (the band\u2019s first ever meeting with REM); the second, less so (Bono playing Pac-Man with two local radio personalities). When reading Bill Flanagan\u2019s U2 At the End of the World, I was interested to notice that it was the less historic, more everyday events that fascinated me (for example, Bono leaving the studio to play husband and Daddy). These excerpts made possible a deeper insight into the band members as people, rather than simply as musicians. Which of these two aspects of your book \u2013 the historic or the less historic \u2013 did you find more intriguing, and which do you think will be more intriguing for the reader?\nI\u2019m with you 100%! Many U2 fans know the big, important dates and events. But when you can uncover the little things (like the Pac-Man story), I think you get much more complete picture of the band as a whole, as well as of each band member as individuals. When I was researching, I loved uncovering those little details. I think it\u2019s those small stories that distinguish U2 \u2013 A Diary from all of the other U2 history/biography books out there. At least that\u2019s what I hope\u2026.\nChristie Ritter: I wrote a book last year and let me tell you, the worst part was sitting on my arse for 12 hours a day trying to make my deadline. The best part was the education I gained in doing the research for my book. What was the best and worst part for you in writing your book?\nFirst, Christie \u2013 congrats! I\u2019ve always respected authors, but even more now that I\u2019ve done a book, too. It ain\u2019t easy.\nBest part was what happened here on U2diary.com: U2 fans were so enthusiastic in following along as I wrote about the research and writing, and even more enthusiastic about helping when I asked for it. Donal Murphy in Ireland even made a few trips to his local library to look up old Irish newspapers on microfiche! The help from the U2 fan community was easily the best part.\nWorst part \u2026 hmmmmm \u2026 I guess the worst part was having a deadline. I could really spend another 10 years researching and still not feel like I uncovered all the facts and events that should go in the book. On the bright side, though, no one has told me I left anything out so maybe I\u2019m the only person who feels more research time was needed. \ud83d\ude42\nRobyn: What do you hope the band thinks of such a book? Do you expect some kind of Thanks from the band, or do you feel that this book was to show then how much you appreciate them?\nIf the band reads it, my only hope is that they think it\u2019s fair and accurate. Those were my two goals. But I don\u2019t imagine they\u2019d be interested in sitting down and reading 336 pages of diary entries about themselves. I wrote it for U2 fans, not for the band, so I\u2019m most concerned with what fans think of the book. So far, so good, on that count. \ud83d\ude42\nDermot Lucking: When compiling the diary did you find youself relating major events in the history of the band back to events in your own life be they major or minor, highs or lows?\nNo, not during the research. I\u2019ve actually always done that. \ud83d\ude42 My wife and I had our first date two weeks after The Joshua Tree came out. We got married two weeks before Achtung Baby came out. My son was born four days after the end of the PopMart Tour in North America. I could go on\u2026..\nJoel Conlan: What kind of compliments and or criticism do you think U2 would give you after reading your book?\nI guess I kinda answered this above to some degree with the fair and accurate comments in Robyn\u2019s question.\nJ.P. Fleming: I would imagine that \u2014 during the process of formulating the book \u2014 there would have been a lot of material which didn\u2019t make the cut (whether because of length restrictions, publisher\u2019s legal advice or your editor\u2019s decision). What are three things that you would have liked to have included that didn\u2019t make the published version? And, do you see a future avenue for publishing the info \u2014 or \u201cis what\u2019s done is done?\u201d\nMy editor and I agreed at the start that personal, family things would not go into the book unless they had a direct impact on the band. Births of children are listed, but most other things are not. In 2001, there was a terrorism scare at the school of one of Bono\u2019s kids \u2014 that\u2019s in there because U2 had to cancel a post 9/11 appearance. On the other hand, earlier this year, one of Bono\u2019s daughters appeared in her first movie. I emailed my editor and we agreed it didn\u2019t belong in the 2008 diary I\u2019m keeping because it has no impact on the band.\nReally, other than little things like that, everything I could confirm and attach to a date is in the book. There are certain things I couldn\u2019t confirm well enough, like the Garry Kasparov thing I keep mentioning in this interview. If I can somehow confirm what happened there, and we publish an update, it\u2019ll be in the next version.\nChris Hunter: Over the years, U2 (primarily Bono) Have done some interesting things, ranging from eccentric to flat out bizaar (giant lemon mirror ball, uno dos tres catorce, and even a seductive crawl by Bono a quarter of the way around the Chicago oval with a mike in his crouch). How will your book help us U2 apologists engraciate the band to our skeptical friends who don\u2019t know what to think about such behavior?\nOh, Chris \u2026 I\u2019m sorry to say, but I don\u2019t think there\u2019s any book that could ever justify giant lemon mirror balls to the U2\u2019s skeptics. That\u2019s a tall order \u2014 probably too tall. But you could point out the Fall 1997 diary entries that talk about only 20,000 people showing up for some PopMart stadium dates, and tell them that U2 diehards were skeptical about that, too. \ud83d\ude42\nCarly Griffen: Matt, which diary entry/U2 event did you wish you could have witnessed/been a part of the most?\nYou\u2019re asking me for one event, right? Does it have to be a single day? Hope not, because I\u2019d want to have been on Tenerife with U2, Willie Williams, and others as they brainstormed what eventually became Zoo TV. If it has to be a single day, I\u2019d say opening night of the Zoo TV tour. Would\u2019ve loved to be there.\nRajiv Udani: Did you ever think you were going too far with details of their personal life? (dates describing family members or band members\u2019 illness, Edge\u2019s relationships with his wives, Bono\u2019s dealing with death, etc). Did the publisher censor any of your entries related to these (or other events)?\nI was very cognizant of the need for delicacy when describing certain events. The situation in recent years with Edge\u2019s daughter would be in that category. Adam\u2019s troubles in 1993 on the Zooropa Tour are in that category. Maybe one or two others I\u2019m not remembering right now. But I never felt I was going too far because I only wrote what had been documented elsewhere. That\u2019s where sticking to facts and not editorializing was certainly the right decision. And no, there was no censorship. My editor kept me posted as he went through the manuscript, and only edited some typos and changed spellings to the UK style. \ud83d\ude42\nElisabeth Deaton: Now that you have completed this book, how would you explain the significance of U2 to a class of six-year-olds? Also, what would you tell them that you learned about being a writer as a result of this experience?\nI would ask them to have tremendous respect for people who write books, because it\u2019s a lot more difficult than it seems. And I would stand in front of the class (that\u2019s 1st or 2nd grade, I think) and read them the Introduction. I think that would help them understand U2\u2019s significance.\nKatie Joyce: When you were writing U2 \u2013 A Diary, what was the most surprising fact or instance that you learned about?\nThat Bono was due to make an appearance at the Farm Aid 2 concert in 1986, but as soon as he landed in Texas, he got a phone call telling him that Greg Carroll had died in Dublin. So, he turned right back around and flew home. I\u2019d never heard of any connection between Bono/U2 and the Farm Aid shows. That really surprised me!\nAnna: To what other (U2) book would you compare U2 \u2013 A Diary?\nWell, it\u2019s probably a cross between U2 Live \u2013 A Concert Documentary, with its day-by-day events listed chronologically, and U2 By U2, because it covers the band\u2019s entire history, going back to their childhoods and even earlier. I\u2019d be honored if fans included my book when talking about how good those are.\nRichard Lamberti: What did you learn most about whilst writing the book \u2013 U2 or U2\u2019s fans?\nWriting the book confirmed for me how awesome U2 fans are \u2014 but I already knew that. So, I\u2019d have to say I learned more about U2.\nLiron Hallak: As U2 fans we read a lot about them and accumulate many bits of information that probably don\u2019t mean anything, but one thing I\u2019ve never really encountered is something that shook me. U2 are good people I guess. Was there anything that you\u2019ve seen/read/heard during your research that completely took you by surprise/made you upset/amazed you? What was it?\nThere were a lot of small discoveries and things I learned, like the Farm Aid 2 thing I mentioned a couple questions earlier. But I can\u2019t say anything shook me. I\u2019ve been running a web site about U2 for 13+ years now, and been a fan for 27+ years \u2014 what shakes me at this point is seeing them in concert. I\u2019ll have to wait a few more months for that, I think. \ud83d\ude42\nThank you all for the excellent questions!\nTough choice, but the one question that I struggled the most with is the one that Lisa Zeitlinger asked. It\u2019s the second question in the interview \u2014 the one about the time capsule. I think I started answering that 3-4 times, only to delete and start again.\nGreat question, Lisa! Your copy of U2 \u2013 A Diary will be on its way promptly. \ud83d\ude42\nThanks to all who asked questions. Even if you didn\u2019t win the contest, I hope you enjoyed the contest. And I hope you enjoy the book if you decide to get a copy, anyway.\nWill there be any more contests?\nYep. I have one more contest in mind, but with a twist: In order to enter the next one, you have to own a copy of the book. The prize will be some sort of cash consideration or gift certificate, maybe Amazon or iTunes.\nThat contest won\u2019t happen until after the holidays, so if Santa brings you a copy, you\u2019ll be able to enter. It\u2019ll probably be the final contest, unless I come up with or stumble on another idea. \ud83d\ude42",

This results in swelling of the affected area. One manifestation of myxoedema occurring in the lower limb is pretibial myxedema, a hallmark of Graves disease. Myxoedema can occur in Hashimoto's thyroiditis and other long-standing forms of hypothyroidism, as well as Graves disease, an autoimmune form of hyperthyroidism.\nThe word myxoedema originates from \u03bc\u03cd\u03be\u03b1, taken from ancient Greek to convey 'mucus' or 'slimy substance' and \u1f41\u03af\u03b4\u03b7\u03bc\u03b1 for swelling.\nMyxoedema can occur in the lower leg (pretibial myxedema) and behind the eyes (exophthalmos).\nMyxoedema is known to occur in various forms of hypothyroidism, and also in Graves' disease. One of the hallmarks of Grave's disease is pretibial myxedema, myxoedema of the lower limb. \u03be1\nMyxoedema is more common in women than in men. \u03be2\nMyxedema can occur in:\nHyperthyroidism, associated with pretibial myxedema and exophthalmos. Pretibial myxedema can occur in 1-4% of patients with Graves' disease, a cause of hyperthyroidism. \"Pretibial Myxedema\", Retrieved on 2009-3-27\nHypothyroidism, including Hashimoto's thyroiditis.\nMyxedema describes a specific form of cutaneous and dermal edema secondary to increased deposition of connective tissue components. These can include , hyaluronic acid, and other . \u03be1 The increased deposition of glycosaminoglycan is not fully understood, however two mechanisms predominate:\nFibroblast stimulation. It is thought that fibroblast stimulation by the thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) receptor increases the deposition of glycosaminoglycan. This results in an osmotic edema and fluid retention. It is thought that many cells responsible for forming connective tissue react to increases in TSH levels.\nLymphocyte stimulation. In Basedow-Graves' thyroid disease, lymphocytes react against the TSH receptor. Lymphocytes react not only against thyroid receptors, but also any tissue with cells expressing the receptor. This can lead to tissue damage and scar tissue formation, explaining the deposition of glycosaminoglycans.\n^ William D. James, Dirk M. Elston, Timothy G. Berger9781437703146, Saunders/ Elsevier.

        "raw_content": "Grammys push for more female representation among nominees\nMusic experts weigh in on how representation will continue throughout the year.\nphoto by Angel Viscarra\nBy: Sophia Hausch and Natalie Ruxton\nThis Sunday's Grammy Awards will honor some of the biggest names in music \u2014 and they'll also provide the Recording Academy with a chance to show if they've taken last year's controversy into consideration. In 2018, only one woman won an award in a major category.\nThis, along with controversial comments made by Recording Academy President Neil Portnow, prompted the voting body to reevaluate how they approached diversity. The field for the four main categories expanded from five to eight nominees to make them more inclusive.\nChristopher Sampson, an expert on the Grammy Awards and USC Thornton music professor said that the category to watch is \"the producer of the year category for non-classical.\"\nNo woman has ever won the award, and 2019 nominee Linda Perry is the first female producer to even be nominated in 15 years. Perry has written songs ranging from \"Beautiful\" by Christina Aguilera to \"Get the Party Started\" by P!nk.\n\"If she wins that category, I think that that would make a significant statement,\" Sampson added.\nLindsay Wolfington, an adjunct instructor from the Thornton School of Music at USC, said she's seen seen the impact women are making in the music industry and the world this year.\n\"Everybody is kind of hoping [2019 is] the year of the woman,\" Wolfington said. \"You look at Congress flipping, you look at the Grammys making a change.\"\nHowever, Miki Turner, a USC journalism professor and expert in diversity and the entertainment industry, remains skeptical of the approach.\n\"I don't know that increasing the number [of nominees] will always increase the diversity,\" Turner said. \"You could just add some more of the same type of people.\"\nShe hesitates to praise the increase in nominees as a long term solution for inclusion. The decision to have Alicia Keys host the Grammys, on the other hand, might benefit the Academy.\n\"She's a very strong voice, a big advocate for women period. Women in music, women across the board,\" Turner said. \"I think that was a good move, whether or not it will eliminate a little bit of the sting remains to be seen.\"\nOnly 12.3 percent of songwriters of the 600 most popular songs from 2012-2017 were female, according to a USC Annenberg Inclusion Initiative report. The study also found there is one female producer for every 49 men.\nLoren Medina, an adjunct instructor for music industry at USC, has 18 years of experience working in the field. She said she spends 95 percent of her time at work negotiating with men and doesn't get the same respect that they do.\n\"A lot of the men [would] rather talk to my artists than talk to me,\" Medina said. \"I feel like their knee-jerk reaction is to talk to the male as opposed to negotiate with me.\"\nSexism isn't the only obstacle Medina said she encounters in the workplace. As a Latina woman, she noted that,\"being a woman in the Latin industry is definitely a lot more challenging because of our culture. Male chauvinism is very strong and predominant.\"\nMedina feels that women in top industry positions have to be more aggressive to succeed, but they are often met with backlash.\n\"Our aggressiveness is not embraced,\" Medina said. \"It's almost like 'Oh she's a b\u2014-. She's too bossy,' as opposed to 'she's doing her job.'\"\nEstablished leaders aren't the only ones who worry about their image in the industry. Amy Kasandr, a percussionist and post-master's student in the USC classical music program, echoed this sentiment about the classical music scene too.\n\"I've always had the mentality of, 'I need to play at 110 percent' because I need to overcome that extra hump,\" Kasandr said, referring to sexism in auditions.\nShe says she's grateful that in recent years, most of her auditions have switched to being blind auditions \u2014 where performers play their instruments behind a screen so their identity isn't clear.\n\"Over the last few years that has become the norm, to do the screened audition,\" Kasandr said. \"Now females are starting to advance more and win more jobs.\"\nAfter the Academy announces the winners, Sampson said they need to continue to make strides to empower women.\n\"They're going to have to keep this up,\" he said. \"They're going to have to not just talk about it but really have an effect in the industry.\"\nAdditional reporting by Avrial Barreto",

We call it a family life sabbatical and it\u2019s been a dream of mine since as long as i can remember, long before i got sucked into the rat race i called life.\nOk, it didn\u2019t happen quite as simply and easily as that. Moving to France was no small feat especially with 3 kids in tow ranging from 4 to 15. There were a lot of moving parts, visas, money, moving our stuff, selling our stuff, living in limbo while we waited for visas, getting the kids ready. Plus we did it after we had lost our jobs and left our California Home.\nAnyone can do what we did. It\u2019s not just reserved for single people under 30 who just bring their back pack and what they can carry. I\u2019ve done that too so i know what it\u2019s like from both a parents point of view and a young bright eyed high school graduate. Both are equally fulfilling and have their own unique set of challenges but traveling and living abroad with your family has been so fulfilling on so many fronts. We\u2019ll always have France.\nWe are a blended family of five. 2 teenage boys and a 4 year old daughter. We are a normal family who lived in the suburbas of Silicon Valley California and worked in the rat race for many years until we were laid off in 2007. That is where are journey began. Now we're working on our portable businesses while living in France.\nThe kids are in school getting immersed in French. I'm working on a business and my husband is finally writing that book he always wanted to while he looks for consulting work that he can to from afar.\nstop by our website where we not only chronicle our jorney but i also offer help and advice for other family's who want to do the same thing with or without kids.\nAs of October 5th 2011, almost a year after we left our California home in search of new life, almost a year of living like a family of semi-nomadic vagabonds up and down the east coast thinking we would find new jobs and settle somewhere to rebuild our old lives, something amazing happened.\nFamily Name:Annie Andre\nFamily Website:http://www.annieandre.com\nFamily RSS Feed:http://feeds.feedburner.com/annieandre\nAnnie Andre (Mother)\nWebsite: http://www.annieandre.com\nTwitter Account: @annieandrehacks\nFacebook Profile: http://www.facebook.com/annieandre\nRSS Feed: http://feeds.feedburner.com/annieandre\nBlake Elder (Father)\nFacebook Profile: http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1333587625\nCurrently in: Marseille, France, until Thursday 1st of January 1970",

        "raw_content": "Remembering Two Christian College Presidents\u2014Charles MacKenzie and Michael Scanlan\nJanuary 30, 2017 | by Paul G. Kengor | Topic: Biography, Faith & Society, Feature Print\nThe story of Christian higher education in America is a sad saga. Once upon a time, the nation\u2019s premier universities were run by religious people or founded with religious missions, or at least were respectful of the Christian faith. That sharp reversal has been a painful long march, with a marked turn early in the 20th century. I\u2019m often reminded of the sardonic words of Thomas Merton, who at radical Columbia University in the 1930s became a communist. He ultimately escaped that god that failed, instead becoming a Trappist monk. Columbia had become a toxic environment where Dewey-ism rather than Christianity was the prevailing zeitgeist. Merton wrote:\nPoor Columbia! It was founded by sincere [Christians] as a college predominantly religious. The only thing that remains of that is the university motto: In lumine tuo videbimus lumen\u2014one of the deepest and most beautiful lines of the psalms. \u201cIn Thy light, we shall see light.\u201d It is, precisely, about grace. It is a line that might serve as the foundation stone of all Christian and Scholastic learning, and which simply has nothing whatever to do with the standards of education at modern Columbia. It might profitably be changed to: In lumine Randall videbimus Dewey!\nThat last sentence was a reference to John Dewey and to John Herman Randall, another influential Columbia philosophy professor. For Merton, he found God in spite of Columbia. And that was the 1930s. Merton and Randall and even Dewey would be stunned by the secular/leftward lunge of our universities in just a few generations. By the 1970s and 1980s, even colleges that were explicitly Christian by charter and mission enthusiastically separated from those moorings, led by administrators and faculty who fled the faith.\nAnd yet, amid all the chaos, a few jewels held firm to the foundation, keeping the faith and holding true to or reverting to their missions. Two colleges that did just that, preserving and actually heightening their commitment, are Franciscan University of Steubenville, Ohio and Grove City College in Grove City, Pennsylvania, one Roman Catholic and one Protestant. The period when the two institutions successfully struggled to retain their commitments came in the 1970s and 1980s under the long-term leaderships of two particular presidents: Father Michael Scanlan and Dr. Charles MacKenzie.\nMy occasion for mentioning this now is a quite moving development: both Father Scanlan and Dr. MacKenzie were called to be with their Maker this January. Scanlan died on January 7 at the age of 85. MacKenzie died last week, on January 26, at age 92.\nMichael Scanlan had stepped down as chancellor of Franciscan in 2011. He had been chancellor since 2000, and before that was president for 26 years. MacKenzie had been president of Grove City College from 1971 to 1991. He was the college\u2019s (mere) fifth president.\nIn reaction to Scanlan\u2019s death three weeks ago, the Catholic press was filled with glowing tributes. Tributes to MacKenzie likewise have now begun. Current Grove City College president Paul McNulty describes MacKenzie as a man of \u201ccourageous leadership\u201d who had an \u201cextraordinary impact\u201d on the college, strengthening its \u201ccore values of faithfulness, excellence, community, stewardship and independence\u2026. He inspired us to serve God with energy and integrity.\u201d Right up until his death, said McNulty, MacKenzie \u201ccontinuously prayed for Grove City College and our distinct mission.\u201d\nAmong the many remembrances of Scanlan and MacKenzie, I want to report an interesting but unseen ecumenical item related to their efforts\u2014a joint effort. Faithful Catholics and Protestants alike will appreciate it, and it was first told to me by Scott Hahn, the famous Catholic convert and Franciscan University theology professor who, ironically, had been a student and then special assistant to President MacKenzie at Grove City College. Only Hahn could have observed what I\u2019m about to relate.\nDuring some very trying days when the two colleges were seeking to hold true to their Christian missions, Hahn several times overheard phone calls between MacKenzie and Scanlan, as the two men alternately advised and encouraged one another. Somewhat akin to the excellent ecumenical work of the late Chuck Colson and Father Richard John Neuhaus, here were Protestants and Catholics working together, united by a common foe: secular relativism, in this case in the academy.\nThose phone calls, said Hahn, an eyewitness, were very important to MacKenzie. Hahn observed this first-hand in the president\u2019s office at Grove City College. Hahn later heard more about the calls from Father Scanlan. When I met Scanlan, he confirmed the relationship with MacKenzie.\nBack in 2011, when I heard the news of Scanlan\u2019s retirement, I emailed MacKenzie to inquire about their relationship. He was eager to go on-the-record. \u201cDuring my twenty years at Grove City, Father Scanlan and I had several conversations or communications,\u201d MacKenzie confirmed to me. \u201cHe and I were on the same wavelength as we sought to lead our schools back to the roots of the Christian faith. We were very careful what we said to each other, but I personally benefitted from his encouragement.\u201d\nMacKenzie hastened to add that he wasn\u2019t free to share everything from their conversations. That isn\u2019t a surprise. Recounting the faculty battles alone would be enough for a book. MacKenzie simply summed up by emphasizing that he and Scanlan \u201cwere on the same side on many of the issues.\u201d He called Scanlan a \u201cman of courage and faith, and in that regard, he was a blessing to me\u2026. I thank God for him.\u201d\nAnd so do the folks at Franciscan University, which, today, like Grove City College, is a shining light amid the darkness of higher education. Both Scanlan and MacKenzie ensured that those lights were not extinguished under a bushel of secular relativism, as has happened at countless erstwhile Christian colleges. They wanted that light to shine before men, and they sought to do so cooperatively, not as antagonists from opposing Catholic and Protestant trenches, but as allies and partners working together in a shared vision.\nIt\u2019s a tale of two Christian colleges that both Catholics and Protestants alike can learn from and emulate.",

        "title": "Pirate Logistics: One Year Later :: We Are The Practitioners",
        "raw_content": "Pirate Logistics:\nIn the first article I wrote for this website, I described the logistics of pirating, specifically the science behind pulling together the annual Gasparilla Pirate Fest. It is now a year later, and this weekend kicks off the 2012 parade season. It starts with the Children\u2019s Parade and Piratechnics Extravaganza, a tamer, more family-friendly parade before next week\u2019s shindig.\nA lot has changed since last year\u2026\nLet's begin with the nine stages in the business lifecycle.\n\u2981 Birth: at this stage there is significant risk.\n\u2981 Infancy: the race for survival. Cash is tight.\n\u2981 Toddler: at this stage, the business is starting to grow, the staff begins to grow as a team, and everything is moving fast, just like when a toddler begins to walk and talk.\n\u2981 Teenager: the \u201cRock 'n Roll\u201d years. The team is getting better and has more professionals on board, cash flow is good, and there is a focus on growth. At this phase there\u2019s a lack of systems to support the business.\n\u2981 Young Adult: there is a focus on systems and processes, professional management teams are in place; where previously the focus was on cash flow, now there\u2019s a focus on growth and profitability.\n\u2981 Maximization.\n\u2981 Midlife Evaluation: things are starting to break down, and it\u2019s time to decide whether to rejuvenate (innovate) or age. Without innovation, death is certain. With innovation comes a rebirth.\n\u2981 Aging: preservation.\n\u2981 Death: the end of the business.\nGoing on its 12th year, our \u201cKrewe\u201d is suffering many of the same perils that businesses suffer in their lifecycle. We\u2019ve hit midlife, and just as in business, things over the past year have started to break down.\nI joined the Sailingest Krewe in 2000, when it was in its infancy. At the time, membership was small and there wasn\u2019t a lot of recruiting. Some of the founding members had put up the cash needed to build our own float rather than rent. The investment made sense. Rather than a recurring annual expense for a generic float, we would build an asset customized for our krewe - bathrooms, bar and sound system included. The asset would require some maintenance, but ultimately the cost of owning was better than renting. We had a vision of who we wanted to be, but our focus was on getting our most important asset, the float, built for the parade season.\nDuring the next few years, we quickly moved through the toddler to teenager stages. We built a reputation as one of the best krewes in Tampa. We won numerous Best Float awards. We revamped our image with new customs. Membership skyrocketed. Supporting the krewe from an administrative position became more difficult, so we developed formalized membership processes, created a new website and completely reworked the bylaws. The Board of Directors and members were a cohesive team who had a strong working knowledge of the bylaws and understood Robert\u2019s Rules of Order.\nDuring these times, I was a very active member of the krewe. I served as the Membership Chair and was responsible for redefining and formalizing the membership process. I sat on the By-Laws Committee, and even served as Commodore.\nAs we approached our ten-year anniversary, the krewe maximized membership. We maintained a solid mix of old and new members in leadership, which allowed us to manage the krewe in accordance with the by-laws and Robert\u2019s Rules. We were status quo for a few years\u2014or so we thought.\nIn reality, things were changing. We got complacent. We continued to do the same parades every year, even though we had the option to do others. We did our monthly Meet n\u2019 Greet, where people interested could come by and meet us. It got stale, and about two years ago, we started to feel the impact. Members started going inactive or joining other krewes. This, in turn, affected our finances, since membership dues were our sole source of funding. Costs went up and budgets were cut. In lieu of the annual ball, we had a small party catered at a member\u2019s home.\nFast forward to today (2012): The crewe is going through a Mid-life crisis!\nThe Board of Directors lacks knowledge of the by-laws that govern the krewe. Membership is at an all-time low. The membership committee realizes that our old recruiting methods aren\u2019t working. Unless the krewe re-invents itself, death is imminent.\nAnd me? When I evaluated the contributions I could make to the krewe and the costs to participate in the same events we\u2019ve done for the past 12 years, I decided to sit this year out. I am inactive.\nThen recently, something happened. I was involved in some e-mail exchanges between our organization and another krewe regarding one of the Gasparilla events. Our krewe is a host of the event, and in the last e-mail exchange, our leader apologized because we would not be participating.\nThe event takes place every year, but the first communication to the krewe was five days before, which left no time to promote it. It would have been a perfect recruiting mechanism, and it might\u2019ve enabled us to attract new members. We should have been advertising this for months!\nDisappointed and a little disgusted, I felt compelled to react because this lack of participation was a failure. By engaging in the conversation, I\u2019d hoped to shed light on the history behind our involvement and to motivate members to rally and participate. Lastly, although I\u2019m inactive and my time is limited, I committed myself to helping us survive.\nIt\u2019s time for us to innovate. We\u2019ve weathered rough times before. I know we can do it again.\nGasparilla Piratefest Lifecycle",

It was horrific.\n\"We're on the third floor of one of the safest buildings in Nuku'alofa and the building was shaking and getting pounded by debris from missing roofs.\"\nThe Parliament building was more than 100 years old and it was not yet clear where the legislature would sit for now.\n\"It's an old building so there was always the possibility that that would occur,\" Tongan noble MP Lord Fusitu'a told the ABC.\n\"Successive legislatures over the years have suggested building a new parliament house and I guess that'll be a necessity now.\n\"It's a great disappointment.\"\nOfficials said the office of the weather bureau was also destroyed.\n\"The eye went over us, then we lost the meteorology office \u00e2\u20ac\u201d it was blown away,\" Mr Kenna said.\n\"So we had not much contact as to where the cyclone was going.\"\nThere are so far no confirmed reports of deaths, but officials said at least three people were injured and up to 40 per cent of homes damaged.\nEmergency authorities said about 70 per cent of the population had been affected and food and water would be a significant problem.\n\"Wind was blowing and we heard roofing torn and flying over, it was quite scary,\" NEMO director Leveni Aho told the ABC.\nAustralia's Department of Foreign Affairs said it was on standby to provide help, including military assistance and humanitarian supplies.\nHundreds of military personnel were clearing roads and disaster teams were already assessing the damage.\n\"We are sending teams to the field now, but it's still raining and still fairly windy,\" Mr Aho said.\n\"So it's going to be some time before we get a quick overview of the damages to the nation.\"\nWeather experts say Gita shows no signs of abating as the storm continues to head towards Fiji's southern Lau islands.\nIt is expected intensify to a category five cyclone as it passes over the Ono-i-Lau group of islands.",

The strength and determination which we witnessed whilst filming was awe inspiring, we were blown away by the talent, commitment and support of all involved.\nAiming High for Disabled Children makes sure disabled children, young people and their families have the same access to fun, fulfilling activities and life chances as those without disabilities. Through sporting activities such as the Para Tri it was hard to see any disability. All who took part have a 'can do' attitude, nothing was going to get in their way of crossing that finish line.\nWe can't wait to work with Aiming High again soon. Filming a live event filming such as this is necessary to capture the true feeling and essence of what the Sefton Aiming High team are trying to achieve.

Me neither. Have you been to change.gov? There's this button on the side (see it at right) where you can tell \"your\" story and another place where you can express \"your\" vision for America and tell \"your\" agenda.\nOf course there's no place to read what stories and ideas they're actually collecting. Occasionally they feature alleged testimonies in the site's blog. All very Oprah-y and Big Brother-y all at once. It's all about you! And let us tell you what you think! Amazingly, it's exactly what we think! We're all one in a General Will kinduva way!\nBack to Greenwald.\n\u201cThe address will be turned into a YouTube video which we will post on www.change.gov,\u201d the official website of the Obama transition team, he said.\n\u201cNo president-elect or president has ever turned the radio address into a multi-media opportunity before,\u201d Shapiro added.\nAn opportunity for whom? And for what? For President Obama to recreate himself on every last surface and sound wave that hasn\u2019t yet been \u201cchanged\u201d in his image? Or an opportunity for the rest of us to marvel at the planet\u2019s last, best hope?\nHere\u2019s the Orwellian cherry on top:\n\u201cThis is just one of many ways that president-elect Obama will communicate directly with the American people and make the White House and the political process more transparent,\u201d [Shapiro] said.\nTransparent? The intentions and inclinations of Obama are so deeply shrouded in contradictions, denials, and feints that his supporters had no choice but to try and turn this cryptic indecipherability into a selling point. Here\u2019s the New York Times:\nEven some of Mr. Obama\u2019s friends call him unusually opaque. After hashing out a question with him, \u201cyou may come away thinking, \u2018Wow, he agrees with me,\u2019 \u201d said Rashid Khalidi, a professor of Middle Eastern studies at Columbia and a former adviser to Palestinian diplomatic delegations. \u201cBut later, when you get home and think about it, you are not sure.\u201d\nNone of us are quite sure how he feels about you, Mr. Khalidi. Maybe if Nick Shapiro forwards the \u201ctransparent\u201d memo over to the Los Angeles Times, they\u2019d be kind enough to give us a \u201ca multi-media opportunity\u201d to find out. But for now, our own government will issue weekly Youtube installments of the Obama Show, to run on every computer screen in the land.

        "raw_content": "Posted on November 29, 2017 January 15, 2019 by WOAmemphis17\nDorothy \u201cHappy\u201d Jones\nDorothy Snowden \u201cHappy\u201d Jones was a Memphis homemaker with three daughters and a full slate of volunteer work centered around the Republican Party and the Junior League in the mid-1960s. She was a daughter of a wealthy, conservative family which considered civil rights an idea that should be stopped because black people did not deserve equal rights or equal respect.\nFrom that upbringing Happy stepped into the confusion and turmoil of 1960s Memphis with personal conviction and strength. Since then she has been an active participant and leader in the civil rights and women\u2019s rights movements.\nAs a coordinator of the Concerned Women of Memphis, Happy led a march to Mayor Henry Loeb\u2019s office to protest poverty, racism and the city\u2019s failure to negotiate in good faith with the city\u2019s sanitation workers even after the death of Dr. King. As a charter member of the Memphis Panel of American Women, she began to speak to groups in the area about racism. She became a member of the Memphis and Shelby County Human Relations Commission, but when she learned it had no real power to change government she drafted legislation creating the Memphis Community Relations Commission and served as its first chairperson from 1972 to 1974. The Commission began addressing practical ways to change the systems that had led to the discrimination and institutional racism that kept most black Memphians poor and powerless. Along with the 22-member Commission board and executive director Rev. James Netters, Happy organized a Police-Community Relations Board to address police harassment of blacks.\nHappy\u2019s long-standing commitment to the Panel of American Women led her to serve as the project director for a grant awarded by the U.S. Department of Health, Education and Welfare in 1975. She organized a conference demonstrating how optional schools could improve the quality of education in Memphis and be a desirable and functional alternative in the desegregation process. Because of her effort, there now are exceptional optional schools in the Memphis City Schools system.\nThe Commercial Appeal named Happy one of the 20 most influential political leaders in Memphis in 1968. Ever since then she has continued her work. She was a founder and first president of Network, served on the Urban League board, the Governor\u2019s Jobs Conference, National Conference of Christians and Jews, and the YWCA nominating committee and advisory board. She developed her skills and became a professional family therapist.\nHappy\u2019s life is a story of pure determination to improve her city and the lives of her fellow citizens.\nHappy died in 2018.\nPrevious PostPrevious Virginia Dunaway\nNext PostNext Ola Mae Ransom",

Published shortly after the beginning (and rapid end) of the first Gulf War, Baghdad Without a Map collects Horwitz\u2019s dispatches from places like Lebanon, Egypt, Iraq, Iran and Sudan to paint a multi-faceted human face on a region that is too often obscured by crisis-driven news stories. Indeed, the reader can\u2019t help but consider the contradictions of the Middle East when Horwitz chats with an Iranian protester who\u2014in-between chants of \u201cDeath to America!\u201d\u2014claims that his dream has always been to visit Disneyland and \u201ctake my children on the tea-cup ride.\u201d Serious, funny and empathetic at the same time, Horwitz uses simple tales (shopping for a popular stimulant in Yemen, for instance, or attending a belly-dancing gig in Egypt) to introduce us to hospitable people whose lives are being shaped by old social forces (religion, politics, poverty) as well as new ones (modernity, media, globalization).\nOuttake from Baghdad Without a Map :\nAnyone who flies the Israeli carrier, El Al, is subjected to interrogation by a corps of fingernail-pullers in training, a kind of farm team for Mossad. If one bead of sweat appears during questioning\u2014which it inevitably does, standing in Cairo\u2019s un-air-conditioned airport in mid-July\u2014your dirty underwear, condoms and spare surgical truss will be turned out of your bag for the amusement of the two hundred people behind you. One night in Cairo, an overzealous El Al-nik picked his way through each item in my luggage, barking repeatedly, \u201cWhat is this?\u201d until he\u2019d searched everything except a brown-bag snack. \u201cWhat is this?\u201d he demanded, seizing a tangerine.\nFor more on Tony Horwitz, check out interviews with him at Powells.com, Book Browse and The Washington Post.\n\u2014Rolf Potts writes the Ask Rolf column and is the author of Vagabonding: An Uncommon Guide to the Art of Long-Term World Travel.

        "raw_content": "In Living Healthy\nThere have been various claims of low fat or \u201chealthy\u201d chocolate for years but the truth is, other than sugar and dairy content those chocolates aren\u2019t very healthy afterall. The main cause is the fact that chocolate has to be made with fat. That\u2019s right, the rich deliciousness is crammed full of fat. The saddest part is, the fat isn\u2019t there really for taste. Chocolate by itself is very viscous, which means it doesn\u2019t flow very well. Think of cold syrup or honey. Fat is introduced to make it flow and make it easier to mold. But leave it to science to take our favorite treat and make it good for you.\nScientists have proven that they can mold and flow chocolate just as well as if they had added more fat, without the fat. What trickery did they use? They used a low level electrical field to reduce viscosity. This isn\u2019t a new discovery, but traditionally electric fields have been used to increase viscosity in liquids as opposed to reduce it. They applied this to chocolate for the first time and the results were pretty fantastic. In fact, scientists say they can reduce the viscosity of chocolate by 40-50% which means that they can lower the fat content by 10% or more.\nThat doesn\u2019t mean they\u2019re on the same level as health foods like fruits or veggies but that does mean that you can go ahead and feel a little better about eating that extra piece. Any excuse to eat more chocolate is okay with us.",

The development of a woman-centred human rights approach to population at the Cairo conference was lauded by some as a paradigm shift and by others as diminishing the financial commitment to reproductive health. The increasing interest in reducing the negative effects of climate change has opened the debate once again.

        "raw_content": "9:00 a.m. is an ungodly time for any class to begin. A young white student sits bored among her classmates in a half-empty classroom, waiting for the lecture to start. Head resting in hand, she doodles in her notebook and absent-mindedly glances at a syllabus. The day\u2019s topic reads specters of race. \u201cSomething to do with prejudice,\u201d she mumbles to herself, half in the hopes that at least today\u2019s video, what was it, oh yeah, Frantz Fanon, would be something to look at. These classes were particularly difficult for her, a situation she\u2019d remedied through daily gripe sessions with friends. \u201cThe reading assignments are way too long for an art course,\u201d they\u2019d tell each other. \u201cAnd the language the professor uses, what\u2019s up with that ?\u201d The class screenings were lifesavers in that regard. And if the videos were agonizing, like that movie Suture, you could still use the time in the dark to catch up on some Z\u2019s. Suddenly she remembers the class had moved to a room where the windows have no blinds. \u201cGod, I hope this is good,\u201d she mumbles. A few students within earshot roll their eyes in agreement.\nThe video begins. A black man appears and speaks of being \u201can object in the midst of other objects,\u201d or some such stuff. Guy\u2019s not bad looking, she muses. Sound bites extracted from Fanon\u2019s famous text Black Skin White Masks fill the room.\n\u201cLook, a Negro....Mama, see the Negro! I\u2019m Frightened!\u201d\nOh, yeah now that\u2019s an old term, the girl thinks to herself. Funny how hip hop brought that back, like how they\u2019d all say \u201chey neeegrow\u201d to each other on In Living Color. Now that show was dope. Cool how all that stuff is back again, like \u201cNegro\u201d an\u2019 Tony Bennett an\u2019 shit.\nI am over-determined from without. I am the slave not of the \u201cidea\u201d that others have of me but of my own appearance. I move slowly in the world, accustomed now to seek no longer for upheaval. I progress by crawling. And already I am being dissected under white eyes, the only real eyes. I am fixed.\nThe girl yawns, stretching her arms up behind her head languorously, then begins to doodle again, unable to sleep with all that sun beaming in. She studies the face of the black man playing Fanon. Hmmm, nice mouth, fleshy and round, but not too much...let\u2019s see, sort of like this. And there upon her notepad it began to emerge: the soft lips and round nose of \u201cFanon.\u201d As the movie progressed, she became more consumed with her caricatures, leaving one illustration of Fanon\u2019s lips to perfect another, followed by his nose and eyes, all in bits and pieces scattered across the blue college-lined sheet of paper.\nEntering class that day to instruct a seminar on the work of Franz Fanon, as interpreted by filmmaker Isaac Julien, we had a goal: to illustrate the manner in which white and black subjectivities are \u201cimbricated along the axis of inauthenticity,\u201d as post-colonial theoreticians have argued. Yet it soon became apparent that we had entered into a situation where everyone was taking aim, but at what? As Lacan has pointed out, an aim is different from a goal. A goal is tangible and can be met. An aim, however, needs no goal, just as the anorexic who fetishizes food need not eat. When confronted with those who take aim as a recreational practice, one's goal becomes superfluous. A position of poised attention to the words of a professor certainly wasn\u2019t their goal, nor was the rejection of any such lesson. Rather we functioned as a deflector device for an aim that is always already internalized. And this internalized aim1, we soon came to understand, was consistent with what psychoanalyst Nicholas Abraham has termed the \u201cphantom\u201d, pointing to what we\u2019d like to call the trouble with Fanon.\nA filmic manifestation of the phantom occurs in Alfred Hitchcock\u2019s The Trouble with Harry, in which a young couple struggles unsuccessfully to bury the woman\u2019s ex-husband, Harry. Their inability to face the secrets entombed with Harry required that the body be repetitively dug up, re-buried, and so on. Since he is never quite laid to rest, Harry psychologically \u201chaunts\u201d those trying to keep his accidental death a secret, a death for which each person mistakenly takes responsibility at different points in the story. In the end, the young woman exclaims with exhaustion, \u201cthe trouble with Harry is that he\u2019s dead.\u201d But it wasn\u2019t actually Harry\u2019s death that haunted them, if we borrow Abraham\u2019s definition of the phantom. It was the gap left within them by the secrets of Harry\u2019s life that haunted the survivors. His less than savory existence implicated them all. For instance, his wife\u2019s own lack of empathy for Harry\u2019s death\u2014\u201cHe was a real bastard\u201d\u2014entangled her in a potential murder trial. Thus, the \u201csecret\u201d of Harry\u2019s death was unknowingly internalized by all those who individually feared that they had killed him for different reasons. This dilemma was consistently played out through an open secret that necessarily protected the integrity of both the legend of Harry as well as those who survived him.",

Freeman School of Business, School of Science and Engineering, School of Liberal Arts, School of Public Health):\nFall-Spring 2012-2013 Freshman Resident Upperclass Resident Commuter\nTuition and Fees $45,240 $45,240 $45,240\nBoard/Food $4,940 $4,940 $1,300\nBooks $1,200 $1,200 $1,200\nTransportation variable variable $800\nMiscellaneous $1,020 $1,020 $1,020\nTOTAL $59,000 + transportation $59,500 + transportation $51,160\nAcademic Support Fee - $2,600 - The University fee entitles a student to use the supplementary services of the university library and the language and science laboratories. It also covers certain computer services and data and voice hookups, the Educational Resources and Counseling Center and other academic support services.\nStudent Health Fee - $640 - The Student Health fee provides all students on all Tulane campuses with primary care at the Student Health Center. It also contributes to health education programs, drug and alcohol counseling and the Tulane Emergency Service.\nStudent Activity and Reily Recreation Fees - $500 - The student body at Tulane assesses itself a Student Activity fee to support its activities. The Student Activity fee entitles students to participate in or attend supported activities, readership of a weekly student newspaper, and admission to many intercollegiate athletic contests, movies and lectures. Students are also assessed for membership to the Reily Recreation Center.\nRoom: The estimated room cost for resident students (not living with parents or other relatives) is based on the average cost of a double-occupancy room in a traditional residence hall on campus. The average cost of a double-occupancy room for freshmen students is $6,600. The average cost of a double-occupancy room for uppercases students is $7,100. Certain students can choose either on-campus housing options or choose to live off-campus. However, their room budget will not be increased to cover charges above these levels. For students living at home with their parents, or with other relatives, room costs are estimated at $1,600.\nBoard: The estimated board cost is based on the average board plan offered to freshman through Tulane Dining Services. Upperclass students can choose between a variety of board programs through Tulane Dining Services, and the cost reflects this variety average at a frugal level. The estimated board costs ($1,300) for commuter students DOES NOT REFLECT the cost of any Tulane Dining Services board plan, but rather represents an estimate of what a commuter student might incur for meals eaten away from home.\nBooks*: The estimated cost for books and supplies is $1,200 for all undergraduates in a full-time division, with the exception of Architecture students. The estimated cost for books and supplies is $1,400 for Architecture students.\nTransportation: For students whose permanent address is outside the New Orleans area, transportation budgets vary from $700 to $2,200. The budget is set by the student's permanent home address state and is based upon the average advanced reservation airfare for two round trips to the home state per year. The estimated transportation costs for commuter students are estimated at $800.\nComputers: Please click here for Tulane University's policy concerning the inclusion of a computer purchase in an Undergraduate Cost of Attendance.\nPart-Time Undergraduate Students in Full-Time Division\nThe 2012-2013 cost of attendance for a part-time undergraduate student (enrolled in Tulane-Newcomb College for fewer than 12 credits) is based on a pro-ration of the aforementioned budgeted costs.\nSchool of Continuing Studies Part-Time Undergraduate Students\nThe 2012-2013 cost of attendance for School of Continuing Studies (SCS) students is based on the prevailing SCS tuition and fee schedule and appropriate 2012-2013 resident and commuter cost of attendance allowances.\nFull-Time Division Undergraduate Students Receiving Special Tuition Rates\nAny undergraduate students in full-time divisions who are charged tuition at a non-standard rate (that is, a rate that varies from the standard rate published for Tulane full-time division undergraduate students) will have a cost of attendance based on the same comparable full-time division undergraduate cost of attendance, and assumed aid from the home School (representing the hourly discount rate from standard full-time division undergraduate tuition hourly rate) will be included in the financial aid package so that the net of standard full-time division tuition and the assumed home School aid equals actual tuition charges for the students.\nPage accessed: Friday, February 15, 2019\nPage URL: http://tulane.edu/financialaid/cost/cost-of-attendance-2012-2013-historical.cfm\nUniversity Financial Aid, New Orleans, LA 70118 504-865-5723 finaid@tulane.edu",

        "title": "7: Mr. Berenson and His Circle | Yashiro and Berenson",
        "raw_content": "Unable to bear the gloom of London\u2019s foggy autumn, I took off for Italy. This no doubt reflects my constitutional disposition as one born in Japan, the land of sunshine; but at the same time, I had wanted from the start to do some research on Renaissance painting in Italy, and in the end I was drawn to Florence, the mecca for such things.\nThere was one more reason for this: Bernard Berenson, the scholar whom I respected the most, lived in Italy. It is a matter of fact that the history of Italian painting up to the modern era has been rewritten with the appearance of Mr. Berenson on the scene, and when it comes to books written before Berenson it is by no means an overstatement to say that\u2014with the exception of Vasari, on the older end of the spectrum, and Burckhardt, more recently\u2014any other work has been largely rendered obsolete. So it was my hope that, if I were to go to Florence, I would receive guidance on art-historical matters from Mr. Berenson, and then see the paintings themselves closely with my own eyes, make my own judgments, and conduct my own research. Perhaps it was because I was the only Asian among Mr. Berenson\u2019s disciples and his extraordinarily broad field of interest also included Eastern art, but I was treated with affection by my teacher. In the more than forty years since, I have called innumerable times upon my teacher\u2019s villa, I Tatti, on the outskirts of Florence, sometimes lodging for longer periods of time there. Nowadays the students of Mr. Berenson are scattered throughout Europe and America. There are a great many of them, in various countries and locales, who are now generally senior members in their countries\u2019 fields of art history. They treat me with respect, as one of their midst.\nThose days\u2014the 1920s, in other words\u2014were a time when Mr. Berenson\u2019s various research endeavors were bearing fruit, and the old inaccuracies in Italian art history were being corrected bit by bit. There were many figures in the history of painting who until then had not been widely studied, such as Masolino da Panicale, Domenico Veneziano, Andrea del Castagno, Piero della Francesca, Paolo Uccello, and so forth\u2014one could simply say the Florentine School of the Quattrocento. An outline of the artistic achievements of these masters, in whom there had been little interest until that time, was gradually becoming better established, and one new discovery after another became the topic of an academic article to be published. It was the most remarkable period of development for modern research into the history of fine art. Those of us young students in Berenson\u2019s circle also found this completely exhilarating, and were in the heights of competition for the discovery of new materials and the presentation of new interpretations.\nI also pursued some research as a part of that group, but before long I felt the flames of youthful ambition and turned my attention to a bigger name\u2014Sandro Botticelli. Botticelli possessed a remarkably unique genius, even among the diverse community of painters in Florence, and he matched my tastes perfectly. It is almost mysterious, if I may say so myself, how even today when I go to the Uffizi Gallery and stand before true masterpieces like La Primavera or The Birth of Venus I feel, just like long ago, as if assailed by a kind of strange allure.\nThe supple bodies of Venus and the other goddesses, their long limbs, their slender and supple fingers, their long golden hair fluttering in the wind, the well-defined, curved forms created by Botticelli, maintain a realistic authenticity, but also seem to deviate from this somewhat, taking on a mysterious slender beauty not found elsewhere. One almost feels its delicate rhythm, as it begins to entwine around one\u2019s heart. Even when he is simply depicting wild flowers scattered in lush grass, one can sense in each flower\u2019s depths a concealed spirit, and the flowers speaking to each other\u2014not unlike, for example, the sentiment expressed in \u201cThe Sensitive Plant\u201d by Shelley, that English poet who loved Italy and ultimately drowned in the Italian sea: this is the mysterious, polytheistic sort of mutual sensitivity that Botticelli\u2019s art imparts to me. That being said, with the exception of older literary critics like Walter Pater, one finds virtually no reference in recent books on Botticelli to this kind of spiritual core in Botticelli\u2019s art, which is what I find most interesting about it, nor to the form of expression, endowed with a kind of strange enchanting power, that this guides through instinct and brings to fruition. This, actually, seems to be due to the fact that, as a reaction to the excessively poetic interpretations of the early Walter Pater and others in the nineteenth century, there emerged a scientific approach to scholarship in the twentieth century that focused on the so-called critique of formal aspects, which took poetic interpretation and interpretations based on sentiment to be nothing more than a string of so-called literary associations. Going even further, this new approach gave birth to the sort of tendency that largely denies that lyricism should be considered as part of artistic content. Even still, the truth is that, in art, there is much that abundantly contains poetic feeling or sentiment, and this is the way it ought to be; there is no reason to think that in art an approach is invalid simply because of its inclusion of poetic interpretation.\nThat being said, even in the case of academic interests there are fads and there are reactions to those fads. As a reaction to the overwhelming popularity of the Pater style of poetic literariness in art criticism in the nineteenth century, from the twentieth century onward, the dominant milieu came to be one wherein interpretation based on poetic sentiment was largely rejected as an approach, even in the case of an artist like Botticelli, in whose work anyone can see the richness of poetic sentiment. Although this strikes me as strange indeed, it was the truth.\nOf particular note is Herbert Horne, the Botticelli expert who passed away not long before I arrived in Florence, and whose foundational research on Botticelli\u2019s historical circle, above all, was the greatest achievement in that field. Using old documents written during Botticelli\u2019s lifetime, Horne found Botticelli\u2019s own art being praised with the term aria virile, or \u201cmasculine style\u201d; using this as his basis, Horne put forth the new theory that the Pater-esque exclusive appraisal of sentimental beauty through such figures as Venus, or through sweet maidenly angels, or, alternatively, through the dreamy facial expression of the Virgin Mary, surrounded by angels, was not legitimate. This new theory, due to the fact that it was based on the new discovery of unexpected historical documents, was taken very seriously among scholars. When one studies Botticelli, one does, admittedly, find that, in his youth, he was an avid student of the austere technique of Pollaiuolo, known as an expert in realism, for the realistic painting of human figures, and that, as a result, there is admittedly reason in his art to believe that it would have been praised while he was alive as aria virile. And Botticelli was by no means a painter of a frail feminine decadence, almost as if there were nothing to him but sentimental beauty, as was the way Pater, Rossetti, and others in that circle of sensitive late-nineteenth-century English poets and writers understood him. At its foundation, Botticelli\u2019s art without a doubt possesses the strength of a Pollaiuolo-esque masculine beauty, and it is precisely because of this that Botticelli was successful in uniform composition on a large scale with no internal discrepancies, and that he fully possessed of the capacity to rank among the greatest masters of his day. Even if that is the case, however, one should by no means lose sight of the other side of Botticelli, the fact that he possessed in uncommon measure a sentimental nature stirred by an indescribably delicate sensitivity and a feminine attunement to detail. Indeed, that is not all: while duly acknowledging the presence of aria virile\u2014and one would have to give the fresco Saint Augustine of the church of Ognissanti as an example of a masterpiece in that vein\u2014I, among others, nonetheless cannot help but think that it is inappropriate to find the artistically defining trait of all of Botticelli\u2019s life\u2019s work in anything but the tenor of his sentimental beauty. However, art historians, no matter the country, have a tendency to show excessive reverence to research based on the study of archival documents; if there is a new discovery of something written in an old text, art historians will pounce on it and wave it about. This is the same for scholars East and West, past and present. When I went to Florence, the views on Botticelli\u2019s art appeared to be almost completely aligned with this new discovery of aria virile by Herbert Horne. Especially since this was a historical criticism made during Botticelli\u2019s own lifetime, the world of Italian art history was even more prepared to accept this, a criticism of Botticelli\u2019s art from Botticelli\u2019s era, as if it were indubitable fact.\nNow, this rare news of contemporary criticism from Botticelli\u2019s own lifetime was of exceeding interest, and furthermore one cannot of course deny its substantial archival value. Nonetheless, it is not a given that contemporary views always hit the mark. This is the same for the fine arts and for music. Starting with the famous case of Schubert, we are aware of many striking examples\u2014almost too many. Since such is the case, there is little need, when considered objectively, to use the discovery of a single document, which shows that Botticelli\u2019s art was praised as aria virile while he was alive, as if it were the undeniable critical criterion for all of Botticelli\u2019s art. In this way, when I arrived in Florence I felt exceedingly dissatisfied with this sort of hermeneutic for Botticelli\u2019s art, which seemed to dominate the scholarly field, and I wanted to get closer to the various aspects of his art, using my own way of looking at it, such that I could believe in these aspects as correct, and thereby try to greatly clarify them. Such were the exceedingly brazen ambitions, possible only because I was still young, that flared up within me.\nAt that time Mr. Berenson held a view of Botticelli somewhat different from that of the scholarly community of Florence, and I thought to myself what a good thing it was that I came to study with him. To put this another way, despite the fact that Mr. Berenson was the person who originally established the new school of thought in art history that specialized in the scientific analysis of formal elements, at the same time he possessed an extremely keen sense of artistic intuition, and in the case of Botticelli, as well, he profoundly felt the presence of a kind of poetic sentiment that could even be called strange. Since he had no other appropriate way to express it, he called this aspect of Botticelli\u2019s work \u201cEastern.\u201d According to Mr. Berenson\u2019s way of thinking, in Botticelli\u2019s art one senses a spiritual element akin to the poetic or perhaps mystical properties of Eastern art, and which one does not usually find in Western art. Accordingly, he pointed out, one can on occasion unexpectedly encounter in Botticelli\u2019s painting style special characteristics, such as flowing line drawings, that are similar to what one finds in Eastern painting and that are not usually seen in Western painting. Although I, a youth from the East, had suddenly come to make myself the student of Mr. Berenson, who thought about Botticelli in this way, it is not necessarily the case that I have inherited his \u201cEastern theory\u201d and so forth; the art of Botticelli captivated me in an entirely spontaneous manner, and, furthermore, I began to conduct research and form my own interpretations in entirely my own style. As a result, from my teacher\u2019s perspective there was probably also the fact that his past words now seemed to have a certain air of prognostication about them, and thus he took me in as a kind of unusual guinea pig and treated me with affection. I was, however, perhaps the sort of student who does not listen to the words of his teacher, and Mr. Berenson, in his wisdom, never tried to teach by molding me into a mirror image of himself, and let me do as I please. And for that, above all, I was thankful, as one who, by nature, tends to not pay much attention to what others have to say when it comes to art history.\nThe fact that Mr. Berenson referred to artists like Botticelli, and the Sienese School that preceded him, as \u201cEastern\u201d has actually nowadays become all too famous, and some Western scholars have been too receptive to what this suggests. Later on figures emerged on the scene who pushed this idea even further by attempting to prove that Chinese painting had a direct influence on Botticelli and the Sienese School\u2014the French scholar [Gustave] Soulier is one such example. Since this was the actual state of things, I did not really agree on the topic of Mr. Berenson\u2019s calling the unique nature of Italian art from the figures of the Sienese school through Botticelli \u201cEastern,\u201d on the grounds that, even if it were a clever way of saying things and rich in implications, it was also a way of saying things that went too far and was extremely prone to inviting misunderstanding. This is to say nothing of the fact that there was no historical evidence that suggested any such relationship between China or the Far East and Italy during that period, and that thereby would lead one to this imaginative theory about the direct influence of Chinese art on the formation of the style of the Sienese School and Botticelli\u2014a theory that, in those days, had started to see its advocacy grow somewhat. If anything, it seems as though we see a certain amount of influence from the miniatures of the Near East. Even still, I ultimately think that this matter can be amply explained mainly as the spontaneous emergence of an artistic phenomenon brought on by the confluence of various circumstances of the day, such as a certain amount of resemblance between Italian painting of the Quattrocento and Eastern painting in terms of watercolor technique, or in other words the use of tempera a secco, and the mystical disposition and religious tendencies of Botticelli himself, for example. Since this set of issues is so complex, I felt the need to organize my thoughts on the matter, in later years giving a talk in Italian at the University of Rome entitled \u201cThe \u2018Oriental\u2019 Character in Italian Tre- and Quattrocento Paintings,\u201d as well as publishing an English version of that talk as an article in the academic journal East and West of Rome. I would like to ask those with an interest to take a further look there. At any rate, I felt that there was something in Botticelli that resonated with me in a very interesting way, and setting aside the question of whether it is appropriate to call that feeling \u201cEastern\u201d or not, I somehow made up my mind, and gradually came to feel as if I had been given as my academic mission to one day try to understand this issue in my own terms.\nAlthough the sentiment above is, to be sure, nothing other than my own conceited ambition resulting from a youthful impetuosity, the crowd of talented, energetic scholars who had come from throughout Europe and America to gather as part of Mr. Berenson\u2019s circle each burned with their own individual ambitions. Each went on afterward to publish their own tomes and to become nowadays senior experts in their respective countries, important figures in their fields of the fine arts and scholarship. In this regard, I cannot but thank the heavens to be blessed with the good fortune of being suddenly tossed into this vigorous group of fellow researchers with Mr. Berenson at their center, having made my way from the East without any such intent, and of being suddenly compelled to harbor similar ambitions, whereby I was able to accomplish a fair amount in my field. And I cannot at the same time fail to remember with gratitude the natural influence of Mr. Berenson that stemmed from the greatness of his person. He spontaneously brought out this spirit among his students.\nThis period\u2014the period when I started living in Florence and was granted the privilege of going out to Mr. Berenson\u2019s villa on the outskirts of Florence once a week to use the research facilities and the wonderful art library there\u2014was truly an era that bustled with activity. This also applies to the decades before and after\u2014that is, the first twenty or thirty years of the twentieth century, when the traditional history of Italian painting was almost entirely rewritten: various new discoveries followed one after the other, the mistakes of old ways of thinking were corrected, and new research and new materials were published in rapid succession. In Rome there were the endeavors of Professor Adolfo Venturi, a senior expert in the field, in Florence Mr. Berenson possessed his splendid, unique facilities for research, and in Germany there was the scholar Bode, and they all competed amongst themselves for new breakthroughs. It was in such a pivotal period as this that I was in Florence, the center of such research, and furthermore I was able to spend much of my time around Mr. Berenson, whom I believed to be the foremost leader in these changes. And, precisely because things were at a peak of exceptional intensity in terms of both time and place, the fact that I was able to join naturally the group of young scholars gathered there was not only of great benefit to my own research topics, but also meant that I was granted the opportunity of encounters that would have been impossible normally, giving me many interesting experiences that stand out in my life as a scholar.\nI will try to recall one such experience here, but in order to do so it will be necessary to briefly explain the condition of Renaissance art studies in those days. For specialists in the field of Italian art history back then, one of the most intriguing issues for anyone was the attention suddenly given in the academic community to Domenico Veneziano, a painter of the Florentine School who had until then not been counted among the first rank of artists. Domenico\u2019s traditional biography holds that he was a prodigy with remarkable promise as a painter, but that he was murdered by his fellow painter Andrea del Castagno, who was envious of his talent. However, after an investigation into archival documents it came to light that Domenico Veneziano, who was supposed to have been murdered young, actually had lived longer than his alleged murderer, Andrea del Castagno, and we also learned the intriguing reason why such a mistaken legend came to be in the first place. Andrea del Castagno\u2014who, legend had it, killed Domenico out of envy of his talent\u2014was, like Domenico, a truly exceptional portrait painter. The grave, pointed power of his realism was of such a strict severity that it one could say it was relentless\u2014cruel, in other words. They say that those painted by him sensed an almost terrible power, a drawing near to the brink of absolute veracity. One can to a certain extent imagine this from his frescoes and so forth that still exist in Florence today. During this period, political strife was extremely fierce in Renaissance Florence, and as a result traitors of the city of Florence were frequently put to death in a violent fashion: the criminal would have a rope tied around his neck, and be thrown from a window high up in the city hall, so that he would be hanged as a lesson for all of the citizens to see. And as the days passed the corpse began to rot, until a painter was ordered to depict the figure of that hanged criminal in a large portrait, which was hung from the window in place of the corpse as a continuation of that lesson. When the traitor was still at large, a painter was made to paint a portrait of the criminal hung upside down with his feet bound with rope, which would then similarly be hung from a window of the city hall while they waited for his arrest, until the criminal was caught and similarly sentenced. Now, it was precisely painters like Andrea del Castagno who became known as the masters of this sort of unusual portrait painting by endowing their work with the utmost power and veracity. Put another way, perhaps it was because he was always being made to paint portraits of hanged traitors with the goal of creating, to the maximum extent possible, a sense of deep hatred toward the criminals in the people of the city that his art developed in the direction of a realism that was brutal and cruel, almost lurid. In this manner, they carried out in the Renaissance a method of execution so lurid that it is difficult for us to imagine today; the people of the city would go to observe the sight without any qualms to satisfy their curiosity, and when it came to painters, they would often take advantage of the spectacle to make sketches of it, seeing it as a very convenient opportunity for studies in the accurate rendering of the human anatomy and similar such research. This is something we can easily agree upon by virtue of the fact that even Leonardo da Vinci left a notebook, which still exists today, of sketches done in pen of corpses hanging with a rope around their neck. And Andrea del Castagno, whom I am in the process of introducing here as the foremost expert in the depiction of these criminals condemned to death, also left behind extremely accurate line drawings of those hanged for their crimes. The deft and unfeeling nature of the depiction\u2014precisely because of its unfeeling pursuit of objective representation\u2014weighs upon the viewer\u2019s heart with such intensity that the drawings become all the more uncomfortable to look at. Now, seeing as how the people of Florence have a fondness for talk and gossip regardless, before one knew it the cruelty of the paintings became the cruelty of the painter, and, by virtue of the fact that he had made his name as a painter through the creation of these sorts of incredibly gruesome portraits of executed criminals, it came to be said about Andrea del Castagno that anyone who can paint such terrible pictures must himself be a terrible person. Furthermore, it seems that this somehow or other gave birth to a legend and concordant belief to the effect that he was envious of the fact that Domenico Veneziano, his contemporary, was such a prodigy and that, spurred on by his intense feelings of envy, he murdered his friend Domenico. It seems that such an interpretation had been proposed by someone in the Renaissance scholarly community not long before I arrived in Florence. Regardless of whether this hypothesis is correct or not, and even if it warrants critique, the fact remains that the truth of the matter\u2014that the alleged murder victim Domenico Veneziano lived longer than the alleged murderer Andrea del Castagno\u2014was discovered through archival research into the painter\u2019s death registers or some other such document, and was even furnished with this kind of interesting, imaginative explanation. Due to this, during the period when I settled in Florence and joined Mr. Berenson\u2019s research circle, Mr. Berenson as well as the young, ambitious researchers who had gathered around him all began to pay great attention to these two painters of the Quattrocento, Domenico Veneziano and Andrea del Castagno, who had until then had not been thought of as prominent figures and whose works were not well known. Accordingly, there was a spirit of mutual competition in the air, a vying for new discoveries to be made for both figures.\nThe above should give a sense of the state of affairs for the field of research on Renaissance painting history during the period I spent in Florence, based on my own personal experience. Now, I would like to relate a remarkable occurrence from this period in my life in the fine arts. Since in those days I had already begun to delve into research on Botticelli, it was difficult for me to direct too much of my zeal to the issue of Domenico Veneziano and Andrea del Castagno. To be sure, I took a great interest in this, as it was one of the important topics studied by my colleagues, and thus I possessed a general knowledge of these two painters. And this likewise meant that I was well informed of the succession of new discoveries regarding these painters. One year during this period, I was off to the Fitzwilliam Museum of Cambridge University in England to conduct research on materials pertaining to Botticelli they had there. One day, while Sydney Cockerell, the director of the museum, and I were talking about something or other in the museum\u2019s gallery, a member of the museum staff passed close by us holding a small painting. Glancing at it, I saw it to be a small painting of the Annunciation, with exceptionally bright colors\u2014an unusually beautiful painting. I looked it over, and, thinking to myself that this is without a doubt a work of the Florentine School of the Quattrocento, and that paintings from the period with such bright and beautiful colors are rare indeed, I asked the museum director, with whom I had been speaking at the time, \u201cWhat is that?\u201d He responded off-handedly, \u201cIt\u2019s a Ghirlandaio.\u201d I said, \u201cThere is no way that could be\u2014let me take a look,\u201d and, calling the person carrying it to a halt, I took a good look at it; and intuition told me that it was painted by Domenico Veneziano. Domenico was a painter who used bright colors to an unusual degree for the Florentine School of that period, something which I had for some time thought to perhaps be the result of his Venetian origins, as the name \u201cVeneziano\u201d suggests. At any rate, as I looked closely at the painting I noticed that there was an old, small tag with \u201cDomenico\u201d written on it stuck to the frame. And then I understood. At the name \u201cDomenico\u201d everyone in those days thought of Domenico Ghirlandaio of the Florentine School, the most famous painter with that name; it was common sense. I immediately realized that, for the longest time at this museum, this painting had been assumed to be a Ghirlandaio. At that point, I began to feel very triumphant and proclaimed, \u201cThis is the work of Domenico Veneziano. Little has been made of him until now, but currently he is the hottest topic in research on the history of Renaissance painting. Since this represents a completely new discovery of one of his works, the day will come when this museum will be happy indeed to be the owner of this.\u201d Seeing as how a young newcomer from the East had begun to make such brazen pronouncements out of the blue, it is true that Mr. Cockerell, whom I had met for the first time that day, had a bewildered, nonplussed look on his face; but at any rate, this kind old grandfather of a director thanked me politely, and I felt overjoyed to have made such an unexpected catch. I exchanged business cards with the director and went home.\nAfter that something like two or three years passed before I went again to England and visited Cambridge\u2019s Fitzwilliam Museum. Before calling on the director, I took a look at the gallery. I thereupon found that Domenico Veneziano\u2019s small painting of the Annunciation, which I discovered on my previous visit, was now prominently on display, and was labeled, too, as Domenico Veneziano, just as I had proclaimed to the director. This pleased me greatly; and as I gazed at the work I suddenly noticed that a small newspaper clipping had been affixed to the wall next to the painting. Wondering what this was, I approached it to take a closer look. It was a clipping from a British newspaper, and contained the following sentence: \u201cThis picture was discovered in the Fitzwilliam Museum by Mr. Yukio Yashiro, a scholar of the history of Italian painting.\u201d1 And I recall that the clipping included the date of discovery. I felt extremely honored, and when I asked the director about it he told me an interesting story. As he confessed to me, \u201cBack then I had just met you, and when I was told all of a sudden that that was a piece by Domenico Veneziano\u2014to be honest, since I don\u2019t keep up with the cutting-edge research in Italy I didn\u2019t know much about Domenico Veneziano, and I only half-believed it. What\u2019s more, since it came from a young man from the East such as yourself, I was all the more unsure as to whether I ought to believe what you said or not. Then a little while after that, a renowned scholar of Italian painting from the University of Rome visited (author\u2019s note: I have refrained from giving his name here), and so we began to pull out various Renaissance paintings from storage for him to look at. Since that painting was among them, we showed it to him. And then the professor looked very pleased and said, \u2018This is a real find!\u2019 And he pointed out exactly what you had told me that day. Well, that surprised me, and I told the professor about how once you had stopped a staff member who was carrying the small painting\u2014which had been traditionally appraised at our museum as a Ghirlandaio\u2014and, glancing it over, said to me that the traditional appraisal was mistaken, and that there was no doubt that this was the work of Domenico Veneziano, who had recently started to be well-regarded as an important painter in Italy. And I also told him that you were a young Japanese scholar. This same professor, however, afterward presented the find as if it were his own new discovery in a research journal.2 I didn\u2019t think that was right, so had them write that in the newspaper.\u201d I was then deeply struck by Mr. Cockerell\u2019s kindness, and furthermore thought to myself how his way of dealing with the situation was indeed befitting the image of a true English gentleman who holds justice in high esteem. I admired him deeply for it, and thanked him from the bottom of my heart.\nThis little personal episode, when viewed from various angles, illustrates the zeitgeist of what we may call the age of new discoveries in the history of Renaissance painting in those days, and I cannot help but think that it is deeply meaningful by implication. Because it was truly an age filled with that sort of competition for new discoveries, scholars would put their effort into fishing around various places for the discovery of something new and into rushing to publish what they found. It was like we were completely engrossed in racing to the front of the pack. Since I happened to be working in Florence under the auspices of Mr. Berenson, a leading figure, and was a part of the group of young researchers who had gathered around him, and since news in one form or another about all kinds of new materials and new discoveries would quickly reach Mr. Berenson\u2019s villa, I had relatively early access to the latest news and images pertaining to all kinds of new discoveries in the field of the history of Italian painting. As a result, I was able to look at an unknown work by Domenico Veneziano at the university museum in Cambridge and see through its mistaken attribution at a glance. At any rate, it will now be necessary for me to give a few more details about this Domenico Veneziano here. At the Uffizi Gallery in Florence, there is a large altarpiece from the church of Santa Lucia de\u2019 Magnoli, which depicts the Virgin Mary surrounded by various saints. I remembered that painting well\u2014especially its dazzling colors. Based on that, as I have already explained, at the Fitzwilliam Museum I was quickly able to determine from its use of color that the small Annunciation there was the work of Domenico Veneziano. And I also knew that the predella, which would have been originally displayed together with it, was missing from the Santa Lucia de\u2019 Magnoli Altarpiece in the Uffizi Gallery. The predella is a series of oblong paintings below the main altarpiece that depicts in miniature form various stories associated with the figures in the main painting. Researchers had for a while been searching with a general sense of what to look for, thinking that this predella had likely been split apart and was sure to be somewhere in piecemeal form. It is customary for the middle of the predella of an altarpiece that has the Virgin Mary at its center to depict the Annunciation, that is, the event that marks the beginning of Mary\u2019s transformation into the Virgin Mother. Thus, when I discovered the small Annunciation at Cambridge, I was more or less able to conclude at once that this was none other than the all-important central piece of the missing predella of the Santa Lucia de\u2019 Magnoli Altarpiece in Florence.\nAt this point, the story turns into a confession of the depths of my own stupidity. Why did I not ask Mr. Cockerell, with whom I had just been talking, to let me take a photograph of the painting of the Annunciation the first time I was at the museum in Cambridge, when I was confident that it was the work of Domenico Veneziano? And why did I not then proceed to show the photograph to Mr. Berenson immediately after returning to Florence, and rapidly write it up in a paper and publish my findings? I belatedly kick myself for being so careless. That was how fierce the competition for new discoveries and the race to the fore was in those days. What is more, because issues pertaining to Domenico Veneziano were, as I have already written, the focus of academic attention those days, Mr. Berenson praised me greatly when I told him about the matter; it would have been as though I received the art historian\u2019s Medal of Honor, so to speak, and there is no doubt that I would have been able to hold my head high indeed among my research colleagues. But I was not yet used to such competition over new findings, and did not realize that one would have to act so immediately; what a great fool I was to just let my discovery sit like that. Even a prominent figure in the field like the professor at the University of Rome apparently felt the need to publish a discovery like that immediately after seeing it, despite the fact that the museum director at Cambridge had told him that this was a discovery made by a scholar from the East named Yashiro; and what is more, this professor already knew me, and had helped me in matters pertaining to Botticelli. I found this a little strange, and although as a rule I make a point not to engage in pessimistic speculation, perhaps all bets are naturally off when the new discovery at hand is one of exceeding interest to one\u2019s own field of expertise, and thus this professor published it in a great hurry as his own discovery. From this one should be able to imagine the extent in those days to which Domenico Veneziano was the target of the scholarly gaze, and accordingly the extent to which scholars were head over heels in a mad dash to discover something new. If I had immediately published the discovery of that little Annunciation as my own, then, precisely because it was a topic that was receiving attention, I would have been recognized as an expert in Renaissance painting several years before my publications and books on Botticelli; and precisely because of this, there is no doubt that things would have been much more convenient in terms of research. In this regard, I feel a certain amount of regret for what I did.\nAfter that, the competition to discover the smaller paintings of the predella of Domenico Veneziano\u2019s Santa Lucia de\u2019 Magnoli Altarpiece in the Uffizi Gallery began in earnest among scholars from various countries in Europe, and I recall that among them Mr. Berenson and the aforementioned professor from the University of Rome had the most respective discoveries in number. When I think of how the smaller paintings of the predella must be almost entirely recovered by now, I feel a little burst of pride knowing that my own discovery, the Annunciation, was the most important of these and that it comprised the central portion of the predella, even if I was careless in neglecting to claim that discovery as my own.\n1.\u201cAn Artistic Discovery,\u201d The Times [London] Feburary 23, 1925, 15, in reference to the Annunciation and Miracle of San Zanobius panels: \u201cShortly after their arrival at the Fitzwilliam Museum, on October 30, 1923, Professor Yashiro, of Tokyo \u2026 at once recognized that the \u2018Annunciation\u2019 was by Domenico Veneziano, and afterwards wrote that it was part of the predella of the well-known picture \u2026 formally over the high altar of the Church of Santa Lucia de\u2019 Bardi.\u201d [This note and the next by Jonathan K. Nelson]\n2. Adolfo Venturi, \u201cTavoletta di Domenico Veneziano\u201d, L\u2019Arte 28 (1925), 28-30, with the following concluding note,\u201cSiamo informati che il Prof. Yashiro dell\u2019Accademia Imperiale di Tokio, alquanto precedentemente a noi, si accorse che il quadro della raccolta di Cambridge apparteneva senza alcun dubbio a Domenico Veneziano.

Exploring teacher-student interactions under the client model. Working with the emotions of intolerance and hatred; desire, attachment, frustration and action; anger, sadness, and loneliness. Topics: emotional reactions, teacher/student relationship.\nSeptember 11, 2011, Against the Stream. Okay.\nThis morning I thought we\u2019d go back to the title of this series which is Sutra Sessions. Now, sutra is a Sanskrit word, the Pali word is sutta, and it\u2019s the word for Buddhist scriptures. But all of the Buddhist scriptures have a very particular format. They\u2019re records of Q&A sessions with Buddha. Every sutra begins with a set-up, you know\u2014Buddha was at this grove, or Vulture Peak Mountain, or Sravasti, or one another of these places\u2014and depending on whether it is a Theravadan sutra or a Mahayana sutra, the set-up can be more or less elaborate. In the Mahayana sutras it\u2019s like, \u201c\u2026and there are five hundred thousand arhats and sixteen hundred million bodhisattvas,\u201d and then it goes through like five pages of naming all of the bodhisattvas, and so forth. And on such-and-such occasion so-and-so asked Buddha this question. And then Buddha replies. And some of them it goes back and forth a lot. For instance in the Diamond Sutra, which is one of the most important sutras in the Zen tradition, there\u2019s a back and forth between Subhuti and Buddha, and they just go back and forth for 32 times or so. So it\u2019s really a question and answer period.\nNow why is this important? Because it\u2019s only in the actual interaction between a teacher and a student that the teachings become alive. Because in this interaction, the student is coming with a question out of their experience. Like, \u201cI don\u2019t understand this,\u201d or \u201cHow does this work,\u201d or \u201cWhat do you do here,\u201d etc. And it\u2019s not a theoretical question usually, and even if it is a theoretical question, it is coming from something in them, like curiosity, lack of clarity, whatever. But because it\u2019s coming from an actual person\u2019s life and practice, the teacher doesn\u2019t have the luxury of giving pat answers. And if they do they should be shot. So, you know, it has to actually respond to that student in that situation, and it\u2019s where the teacher\u2019s experience or understanding or whatever comes alive as well. So this is the only place that it really comes alive, and that\u2019s why I think they\u2019re so important.\nSo we have a microphone, and you can either volunteer or you will be volunteered. [Laughter] Okay, let\u2019s start right here.\nStudent: When I first started practicing about ten years ago, at that time what arose while I was sitting were sort of distinct thoughts or things I could actually recognize\u2014thoughts and sentences, and emotions\u2014and it feels more and more these days when I sit, it\u2019s just sort of indistinct chatter. Some of it doesn\u2019t even seem to have content. It just feels like\u2014it\u2019s actually more disturbing because it doesn\u2019t feel content-full\u2014it just feels sort of chaotic.\nKen: Okay, how is your body when you sit? See this is where it gets alive: you get more information here.\nStudent: Uh, I start out with good posture, then I lose it, and then I regain my good posture, and then I lose it and\u2014\nKen: Ahhh. You know, this actually sounds like good news to me. [Laughter]\nOkay, one of the things about meditation is that there are different levels of thought. And one way of describing this in the past is when we start practicing meditation, it\u2019s like having a picnic, and a herd of elephants walks through. Does anybody know that experience? You know there you are sitting quietly, and any sense of attention is just completely demolished, and you sort of wake up afterwards like, \u201cWhat the hell happened there!\u201d That\u2019s the herd of elephants. But you keep practicing, and it changes. And now it\u2019s like a pack of dogs walks through. Like there\u2019s a picnic but now you\u2019re grabbing at stuff and trying to keep it from the dogs, who are just nibbling and grabbing at everything. You know you don\u2019t go completely unconscious, but it\u2019s a struggle. You with me? And then you keep practicing, and then it\u2019s like having a picnic with ants. And that seems to be what you\u2019re describing. Is that right?\nKen: Okay, so this is why it\u2019s good news. [Laughter] Now the reason I asked you about the body at that point, because at this point it becomes really important. Because your mind\u2019s quieting down, it\u2019s not distracted in the same way, you\u2019ve built some momentum and ability in your practice. And the problem is, that the more you meditate the more difficult it gets. Which is probably not what you wanted to hear, but too bad. [Laughs]\nSo we\u2019re working with a higher level of attention, we\u2019re aware of more; however, as the mind quiets down, there\u2019s an increasing tendency to slip into dullness. And that\u2019s\u2014\nStudent: Slip into what?\nKen: Slip into dullness. So you just get a little hazier, a little foggy. And that sounds like what\u2019s happening to you. So meditation practice is very much like riding a bicycle. You know, on a bicycle we have left and right. Now if you notice when you\u2019re beginning to ride a bicycle you are going like this [Ken gestures], and as you get more and more expertise and familiar with it, then you\u2019re going like this [another gesture]. And eventually you think you\u2019re going absolutely straight; you don\u2019t even have to have your hands on the handlebars, the bike just goes straight. But it\u2019s not quite true. Because if you look at it very closely there\u2019s always a slight going back and forth. Now the gyroscopic effect of the wheels and the speed which you are going, all help to keep the bicycle straight, but it\u2019s still going back and forth just a little bit; you may not even notice it.\nSo in meditation the right and the left are busyness, on the one hand, and dullness on the other. And many people when they meditate, they try to make their mind absolutely still. Well, you know, this is a bit like herding cats, or trying to get rid of the ants at the picnic. And they slip into dullness, and then they try to make the mind absolutely clear so they\u2019re going like this. [Ken tenses] And it gets very, very tiring and frustrating, and so forth.\nSo what I encourage people to do is just correct the imbalance. Don\u2019t try to be in balance; just get really good at noticing and correcting the imbalance. So there you are, you\u2019re sitting, and you notice, \u201cOh, I slipped out of the posture.\u201d That\u2019s usually a sign of dullness of some form. So reset the posture. And in resetting the posture, you\u2019ll become clearer just by doing that, and then you go back to resting.\nNow if you start thinking a lot, that\u2019s a sign of busyness, and it\u2019s reflected in our body almost always as some kind of tension. So when we find we\u2019re busy and thinking a lot, then it\u2019s good to just relax a little bit. But what you\u2019re probably going to find in your meditation is that you\u2019re sitting, and sometimes you will sit straighter, because that counteracts the dullness. Then sometime you\u2019ll sit a little bit\u2014and they won\u2019t be big movements, they won\u2019t be like this! This! [Ken demonstrates] They will be just little movements. And now you\u2019re making these little adjustments as if you were riding a bicycle. And sometimes, \u201cOh, okay a little more attention on the breath. Make the mind a little brighter.\u201d Okay? And okay, \u201cJust let things go a little bit more just don\u2019t try so hard.\u201d That\u2019s the relaxation which lowers the tension, and so rather than trying to make our minds or ourselves a certain way and hold it, just get very good at making these little adjustments and see how that goes.\nOkay, any other question, follow-up?\nIs there a question right here? And then you had a question? Okay.\nStudent: I don\u2019t know how much of a question it is; maybe it might be more of a gripe or a complaint.\nKen: Oh I\u2019m all for gripes! [Laughter]\nStudent: It may be this way in the East, but I know in the West that with our capitalist society, that it\u2019s become\u2026I guess\u2026I mean you have to make a living, so I\u2019ve found over the years that I\u2019ve been practicing it\u2019s hard to\u2014I don\u2019t know, I guess I\u2019m a little confused\u2014I\u2019m wondering if it\u2019s sufficient to have the types of teacher relationships that I\u2019ve had with people at places? I love Against the Stream, and it\u2019s you know, it\u2019s a big, big part of my practice.\nStudent: But sometimes it feels there\u2019s a void in between the teacher-student relationship. You\u2019re allowed to ask questions in the environment, but you only have a certain amount of time, and at the end, people are trying to get home to their families, so you\u2019re encouraged to almost\u2026I\u2019ve seen that some teachers do private practices where they charge money; it\u2019s kind of a therapy session afterwards, and it\u2019s kind of this\u2014it\u2019s\u2026I don\u2019t know what it is to me\u2014but it just seems kind of unfair to the student, or maybe in the past there\u2019s been a stronger relationship in the East with student-teacher, and in the West we just haven\u2019t cultivated that? I don\u2019t know.\nKen: Boy, did you ever ask the wrong person! [Laughter]\nStudent: Or the right person! [Laughter]\nStudent: I can\u2019t wait to listen.\nStudent: I said I can\u2019t wait to listen.\nKen: Yeah, you see I was the person who invented that private practice model. [Laughter] And a lot of other teachers have used it, because it actually makes it possible for a teacher to live in this dog-eat-dog capitalist world in, you know, in a way. And I did for two reasons [Ken laughs]. One: I taught a retreat, a 10-day retreat at a center where I was very well known. And there were about 25 to 30 people at this retreat, and it was on a donation basis, and everybody agreed that it was one of the best retreats that had been taught that year at that center. Do you know how much I walked away with from that retreat? Guess.\nStudent: Five hundred dollars.\nKen: Three.\nStudent: Three.\nKen: Yeah. For a 10-day retreat. I\u2019d do better working at McDonalds! You know, totally unsustainable!\nAnd then what really clenched it was when I met with a group of people who said they were interested in me establishing a center, and we met for an afternoon, and I asked them what their commitment was, you know, what they were willing to commit to a center, and it was astonishingly clear, that their expectation was I would put all the work into establishing a center and teaching it, and they would come when they chose! [Laughter] You talk about balance! This is not balanced, so I did something else.\nNow, it\u2019s a very real question, what you\u2019re bringing up here, and there are a couple of very important points. One is, it\u2019s really important to have this kind of interaction, where you can actually talk about stuff. And it\u2019s got to work on both sides. I mean money doesn\u2019t fall out of the sky for you; it doesn\u2019t fall out of the sky for me either. So what do we do? And there have been different mechanisms for this throughout the course of history. And the Eastern models, which were largely based on agrarian societies\u2014in Tibet, which is my training, they were preindustrial societies. I mean, a large portion of Tibet was\u2014they were nomads. We don\u2019t have nomads over here, haven\u2019t had them for quite a while. And also the structure was very, very different. And Tibetan Buddhism is somewhat different from Chinese and Thai, the Theravadan tradition. But what you encounter in the Tibetan tradition is much worse. If you wanted to study with me in the Tibetan tradition, you gave me everything that you owned, and then I took responsibility for you, completely. You know, would that work for you? [Laughter]\nStudent: Complete responsibility?\nKen: Well, yes, but then I would take care of you. I would give you a place to stay and food to eat.\nStudent: I\u2019m in! [Laughter]\nKen: And you have to do everything I tell you. You in? [Laughter]\nYou know, that worked in an agrarian society, and under many, many examples of that. My teacher said that at three different points of his life he gave his teacher everything that he owned. You know, well this doesn\u2019t work in our society because we aren\u2019t land-based; we don\u2019t have this land which just generates wealth naturally. It\u2019s very different, and so I\u2019m not recommending that. I\u2019m just giving you that as an example. We haven\u2019t developed, or we\u2019re in the beginning stages of developing the models by which teaching and practice can take place. And, it is much more challenging in this society than it is in an agrarian society, and the reason is, is because the society is much wealthier and we have a higher standard of living. And this was beautifully pointed out to me by a friend of mine, who\u2019s a research doctor.\nYou know you\u2019ve heard all of this business about the health care costs just keep rising and rising, well there\u2019s an economic reason for this. This is probably more, this is way too much information I know, but you asked so you\u2019re going to get it.\nThere was an economist who wrote a paper fifty years ago about why health care costs are going to keep rising, and it applies to Buddhist practice, and a lot of other professions, too. And the way he explained it is that in Mozart\u2019s day, you had four people playing a violin quartet. Okay. Say it took an hour for them to play this piece of music. And you had\u2014I\u2019m going to use a different example from what he did\u2014but you have four people who, you know, they make nails, okay. Just routine job, but don\u2019t forget this is right at the beginning of the Industrial Era so they didn\u2019t have many machines. So how many nails could they make in an hour these four people? Well, let\u2019s say they could make\u2014let\u2019s be really generous, they\u2019re really fast\u2014they make a thousand. Okay? So you have four people who can play one violin quartet in an hour, and you have four people who can make a thousand nails in an hour. Let\u2019s transpose this now two hundred, over two hundred-fifty years later. How long does it take those four people to play the violin quartet? One hour. How many nails can those four people make today?\nStudent: A lot!\nKen: Yeah. You know with the right machine they make, probably a million or something like that. I mean just unbelievably more. So what has that done to the price of nails? [Student gestures] That\u2019s right, driven them down. You know people are going to listen to this so you gotta speak, you can\u2019t use sign language. [Laughter]\nOkay, the consequence of that is that the cost of that violin quartet goes up. As the productivity in our society goes up, those elements in our society where productivity cannot be raised\u2014and meditation is one of them [laughter]\u2014the relative cost of them just keeps going up. So, I understand completely that it costs money to practice! It costs more money for us to practice than it did when we were all, you know, herding cattle and growing grain. It costs a lot more money. You can calculate how much it would cost a doctor or an attorney to go on a one-week retreat. It\u2019s a really large sum of money. And we are wealthier, we have a higher standard of living, but things just cost more. So when we talk about renunciation and giving things up, you know, we\u2019re giving up a lot more to practice. And so we have to be really, really clear about this. Is this this important in our lives? Now for me, yeah it is. I mean yeah I could be a lot wealthier if I\u2019d done something else, but I don\u2019t think my life would be the same. And that\u2019s very important to me. So you\u2019re quite right, there are tensions here, and rather than gripe\u2014but I understand that very well\u2014think, \u201cOkay, this means I have to figure out what\u2019s really important to me, because I have limited resources, and do I put them here or do I put them there?\u201d\nYou\u2019re smiling; say more.\nStudent: It\u2019s just a hard decision to make. I\u2019ve made it several times and recently I had to give up\u2014I was doing the therapy with one of my teachers and I had to give it up. I couldn\u2019t afford it anymore and I can\u2019t even pay dana any more, and I just had to\u2014I was going to go on the metta retreat with Against the Stream and I had to cancel. Like\u2026\nKen: Oh, this is very frustrating!\nStudent: So my whole\u2026but it\u2019s a big question. It\u2019s like do I\u2026I mean do I really\u2026I really have to sit down and say am I going to be able to survive if I don\u2019t focus more on saving money and working. Because that\u2019s why I\u2019m not going on the retreat because I have a lot of work that week, so I\u2019m like, \u201cWell guess I can\u2019t go on the retreat.\u201d And it\u2019s a really hard decision to make, because I went on an 11-day retreat with Spirit Rock in Joshua Tree earlier this year and it changed my life, so\u2026\nKen: So this is very important to you, yeah. And so you\u2019re in the phase of how you\u2019re working out your life so you can do what\u2019s really important, and that\u2019s wonderful. But is it easy? No, it\u2019s not. But this is where our practice takes hold; and I think it\u2019s wonderful that, \u201cOkay, this really means something to me.\u201d And now we have to figure out, \u201cOkay, I got all this work to do. That produces X amount of dollars. I\u2019d like to do this retreat. That means I can\u2019t do this.\u201d You\u2019re a freelancer of some kind?\nStudent: Exactly.\nKen: Oh yeah so it gets\u2026I can relate, because, you know, when you\u2019re a freelancer, your time in retreat is right out of your income. Big time. You know, it\u2019s not like you\u2019re on salary.\nStudent: No one\u2019s paying me, too.\nKen: No, no nobody\u2019s paying you. Yeah, I can relate, you know, because I do business consulting. It\u2019s the same for me; if I do that, then I don\u2019t get any of that money. So, you know, you work it out, and you\u2019ve got to focus on what are those aspects of the freelance work that you do that really produces, and is this retreat of sufficient import that you\u2019re going to forego say that $10,000 gig or something like that, and those are real decisions.\nStudent: So it\u2019s not a matter of East or West or, you know, a thousand years ago or now. It\u2019s\u2026there have been different levels of how much people are willing to give up, and we\u2019re starting to work through those in our society. I mean it may have been even more\u2026you might have had to give up more a thousand years ago in Tibet, then it\u2019s not relative.\nKen: Again it depends. Well, the first part of what you said there, yes, I don\u2019t think it is East and West. The East developed certain models, and by and large, teachers and monasteries, and teaching institutions were funded by the aristocracy. I mean with really, really large land grants and funding, you know, building and things like that.\nStudent: Churches.\nKen: Yeah, that\u2019s how they were funded. And because the people who had a lot of wealth valued the teachings, but their relationship with society was such that they wanted to make these teachings available, so they just funded teachers, and funded institutions, and funded monasteries, and that\u2019s what made it possible for many other people to come and just donate whatever they could. But that\u2019s really how it was funded for centuries. And that\u2019s absolutely how it was funded in Tibet, except there\u2019s one other thing there is that the monasteries became very large landholders, as they were in medieval Europe. So they had a huge amount of income coming from the serfs that farmed their land, so they were feudal estates.\nWe haven\u2019t developed that, but it\u2019s happening. There\u2019s a center back East called the Garrison Institute, which was bought and refurbished by\u2014it\u2019s an old Catholic monastery, actually it\u2019s a seminary\u2014which was bought relatively cheaply from the Catholic Church. Relatively cheaply like a few million dollars! And these people have created a foundation, in which people who have lots of money make donations to that foundation, and it puts on programs and they try to make the programs self-sustaining so that the actual whole thing can hold together. But it\u2019s very much a case of people with large resources themselves valuing the teachings setting up an institution, which can then provide teachings to a much larger number of people at a moderate cost. It\u2019s exactly the same kind of thing.\nHere, as solo practitioner or freelance person, yeah, you\u2019ve got to make some really hard decisions, \u201cDo I do this retreat? Or do I go on a vacation? Because I\u2019m losing money either way. Or do I\u2026.\u201d Or somebody calls up and says, \u201cHere\u2019s this.\u201d\nBut let me tell you a story of a friend of mine who was very helpful to me the first few years I was here in L.A. He was a paralegal and he worked for one of the major law firms in Century City. They always thought of themselves as the biggest, and meanest, and baddest. So they really knew how to beat up clients, I mean things like that, they were very successful. And this is in the late \u201980s, early \u201990s. Late \u201980s, yeah right around there. And he had a friend in Hawaii who called him up and said, \u201cYou know, I\u2019d really like you to come and visit me.\u201d And so he made arrangements to go on vacation to Hawaii, but a couple of days before he was to go on the vacation his law firm said, \u201cLook there\u2019s this big case coming up, so could you delay your vacation because we really need your help.\u201d So he said, \u201cOh, okay.\u201d So he delayed that vacation, didn\u2019t go, and then got caught up in things. Then he got another note from his friend saying, \u201cWell actually I\u2019m HIV-positive, so it would be really nice to see you.\u201d And so again he scheduled his vacation and his attorney and law firm again a day or two before he was to leave said, \u201cYou know there\u2019s this big case, you know, can you change your plans?\u201d So he said, \u201cOh okay, I\u2019ll do that.\u201d\nAnd a few months later he got another note from his friend saying\u2014oh, and the case was always settled after a couple of days, both cases. And then the same thing happened when his friend said, \u201cYou know like I\u2019m really sick now, and I\u2019d really like to see you.\u201d And he was feeling really badly. And so again he made arrangements to go and again, as he\u2019s going to the airport he gets a phone call from the law firm which says, \u201cIs there anything you can do? We\u2019ve just got this big case coming in and we really need you to do the research.\u201d So he turned around and went back. And the case settled three or four days later, didn\u2019t go to trial. Then he got a note saying that his friend had died.\nStudent: His friend had\u2026?\nKen: His friend had died. So he went to the airport, was on the plane, he gets a phone call from his firm saying, \u201cThis big case has come. Can you change your plans?\u201d and he says, \u201cNo.\u201d And he went and he attended his friend\u2019s funeral in Hawaii, and the case settled two days later.\nSo it\u2019s very easy to get caught up in the work world and miss what\u2019s really important in our lives. It\u2019s really easy. And he really remembers that very, very vividly, and that\u2019s one of the reasons he just stepped completely out of it, he never wanted to get caught in that kind of thinking again!\nSo, your concerns, the challenges you face are really legitimate. Do we have it all worked out? No. It is going to inevitably be a more professional model than it was because, you remember, there are a lot of people I guess may not be aware of it. You see back in the days of monasteries, if you were ill you went to the monastery and there was a monk there who specialized in medicine, and he was the doctor. And if you had legal problems you went to the monastery, and there was a monk there who specialized in canon law and the king\u2019s law and he would help you figure that out. And if you had wealth or something like that you were expected to make a donation and if you didn\u2019t, then they were available.\nBut as we went through, you know, through the Renaissance, and then through the Industrial and other revolutions that we\u2019ve gone through, each of those professions left the monastery. You know, those monks who were good at medicine became doctors, and those who were good at keeping track of things became accountants, and those who were good at figuring out all these legal tangles became lawyers. And now we\u2019ve had the counselors leave, and they\u2019ve become therapists; and now we have people who have a certain amount of spiritual understanding and experience being available as not therapists but as spiritual guides. In the Catholic Church they\u2019re known as spiritual directors. But those are actually becoming professions now in a way that they weren\u2019t a hundred years ago, so we\u2019re going through these changes.\nStudent: So it\u2019s even happening outside of the Buddhist community, happens in the Catholic Churches and stuff?\nKen: Oh, in the Catholic Churches, look at what\u2019s happened with yoga\u2014I mean the model for yoga is totally different\u2014look at what\u2019s happened to the martial arts. You know, martial arts, you couldn\u2019t even get a lot of the training because they were family secrets, like they were trademarks. And so the only way that you could get certain kinds of martial art training was to join that family, and that was it. So you really had to give up a lot. So, yeah, and it\u2019s way beyond Buddhism\u2014it\u2019s everywhere.\nStudent: Well thank you for explaining it a little better.\nKen: Okay. Well, you\u2019re very welcome.\nNow, you had a question, totally different topic I imagine.\nStudent: I think so. I am dealing with like hatred and intolerance, and it comes up when I\u2019m sitting and I think, \u201cOkay, well I\u2019ll try to just be present for it, and maybe be curious,\u201d and while compassion kind of eludes me, like just sort of a radical curiosity I guess, I\u2019ve heard. But it\u2019s very overwhelming; it\u2019s like for exterior stuff that happens, you know, and so then I\u2019m attached to that hatred, and it\u2019s again, I shouldn\u2019t, and then I shouldn\u2019t for the shouldn\u2019t.\nStudent: And then ad infinitum, yeah it\u2019s like infinite regress. And then, so I\u2019m just wondering\u2026so I have these like words to help me, like okay, \u201cradical curiosity,\u201d or like \u201crelax,\u201d but I\u2019m just wondering maybe sometimes those words get a little stale. [Ken laughs] And they lose the meaning, and it\u2019s still\u2026and now I\u2019m just like, \u201cWow this is intolerable.\u201d And it\u2019s very sustained. So anyway\u2026\nKen: Okay, is it okay if we engage this a little bit here?\nStudent: I don\u2019t know what that means, but sure, I guess. [Laughter]\nKen: Okay, so can you bring up the feeling of intolerance or hatred?\nStudent: Can I\u2026I don\u2019t\u2026umm?\nKen: Can you bring it up?\nStudent: Like at just in a moment\u2019s notice?\nKen: Yeah. Can you recall it?\nStudent: Can I recall it? Yeah.\nKen: Okay, so just recall it, and tell me what happens in your body.\nStudent: Umm. It\u2019s like a black ball right here.\nKen: Okay, what physical sensations?\nStudent: It\u2019s hot.\nKen: Hot, okay.\nStudent: It\u2019s tense. It\u2019s\u2026\nKen: What\u2019s the ball made of?\nStudent: Like fire, and like black tar.\nKen: Okay. It\u2019s right here\u2014solar plexus?\nKen: Okay. Now in this exchange we just go as far as you want.\nKen: You tell me, okay? Okay now my sense is you\u2019re already feeling something else.\nStudent: Than the anger?\nStudent: Just\u2026probably yeah.\nKen: Like\u2026if I\u2019m reading you correctly it\u2019s hurt and pain.\nKen: Is that fair?\nKen: You know, you don\u2019t have to explain what it\u2019s about.\nKen: We don\u2019t need to do that, okay?\nKen: Okay. But it\u2019s there; so on the one hand there\u2019s this hatred which is\u2014and intolerance\u2014which is a hardening.\nKen: Right. And on the other hand there\u2019s a hurt and pain, but you can only experience that because you are softening.\nKen: Okay? So you\u2019ll have this hardening and the softening going on at the same time, and it\u2019s probably a little confusing.\nStudent: Yeah. [Laughing]\nKen: Okay. Now, that\u2019s always the case.\nKen: Wherever we are angry there\u2019s that hardening and that heat and fire. But wherever there\u2019s that anger there\u2019s also the hurt, where we feel weak, and vulnerable, and at threat, and hurt, and so forth. Now I\u2019m going to ask you to do something that may be a little challenging. Okay? And I want you to do this at this point only at the level of the body.\nKen: Okay? I want you to feel the hardening and the softening at the same time. So just take a couple of moments.\nKen: And there will be parts of you that harden like this, and burn, and then parts of you that soften and feel hurt.\nStudent: Now? Okay.\nKen: So just do that and take half a dozen breaths just feeling that. [Pause]\nOkay, that\u2019s really good. What was that like?\nStudent: Umm, like I\u2019m shaking kind of.\nStudent: Like I\u2019m\u2026like I could like convulse kind of.\nStudent: Like convulsing almost sort of feeling.\nKen: Yeah, there\u2019s a lot of energy there isn\u2019t it? Okay. Was it tolerable?\nStudent: Yeah, I mean it\u2019s a little bizarre \u2019cause everyone\u2019s watching me, so\u2026\nKen: Well actually they were probably all doing it themselves.\nStudent: Okay, okay.\nKen: Because they tend to do that. [Laughter] I was watching you\u2014\nKen: But they, they\u2026 [Laughter]\nStudent: Yeah, I mean I feel like perhaps if I would have like shaked, like vibrated, my body would have shook a little more, had I not maybe contained it a little\u2014\nKen: Right, right.\nStudent: Because I knew I was\u2026I\u2019m holding a microphone.\nKen: Didn\u2019t want it to go flying across the room.\nKen: Yeah, okay. Yes and that may be because usually when there\u2019s that kind of hardness and that kind of pain, there\u2019s something in us that\u2019s trying to come out.\nKen: Okay. And when we go with the hardness we just shut everything down, and it doesn\u2019t feel very good.\nKen: And when we go with the softness, it feels overwhelming, and that doesn\u2019t feel very good. Okay. But in exactly the same way that I was suggesting before, there\u2019s that busyness and dullness\u2014\nKen: You include both of these. And don\u2019t try to be balanced but you just keep including both.\nKen: And so sometimes the body is shaking, but it allows whatever is at the core, to start to come out. Don\u2019t try to do this necessarily all at once.\nKen: Because the sense that I have is there may be something a little deep. But when you practice rather than, you know, being curious, which is good, or trying to be a certain way, just open to exactly what you\u2019re experiencing, and use your meditation practice to stay with it, and when you notice that you\u2019re hardening against it, ease off because that doesn\u2019t help.\nAnd when you notice that you\u2019re getting lost in it, ease off, because that doesn\u2019t help.\nKen: And you just kind of feel your way with this.\nKen: Yeah and you are going to be doing that a lot. [Laughter] Because there\u2019s all of this stuff in us that we haven\u2019t experienced, and when anything outside resonates with it, all of these very powerful feelings are coming up.\nIt\u2019s interesting what you say about that ball of anger being like this black burning thing. Because that\u2019s exactly how the hell realms are described in Buddhism.\nStudent: Yeah. It\u2019s deep.\nKen: You have this thing inside of you, which is burning you from the inside out.\nKen: You know. Does this help?\nStudent: It does, thank you.\nKen: Yeah, so you make it really alive that way, and just what you experience. And you can see we didn\u2019t have any shoulds or shouldn\u2019ts in here.\nKen: They\u2019re not helpful. Okay.\nStudent: All right, I appreciate that, thanks.\nKen: All right.\nOne here, and then we will come back to you, okay. I think that we just have time.\nStudent: You might have already answered my question, but it has to do with attachment, and so I won\u2019t unpack my whole story. But I\u2019m wanting to change careers, and I am really attached to that\u2014wanting to change careers. And I bring it into my sit, but I\u2019m trying to figure out how to get it from my cushion just into my daily experience. Because when I bring that kind of, you know, I\u2019m really attached to what I want, you know, and what I think it\u2019s going to give me and I can bring it to the cushion, I can get some softening around it, but\u2026\nKen: What are you trying to work with here? I mean what are you trying to get rid of? It sounds like you\u2019re trying to get rid of something.\nStudent: I have a job that I\u2019m really grateful for, but I want to be doing something else, and I don\u2019t have time to work towards it as much as I want, so what comes up for me is, I\u2019m never going to get that thing\u2026\nKen: Ah, okay.\nStudent: You know, it\u2019s just this whole story that comes up, and it\u2019s creating a lot of suffering for me.\nKen: Yeah, okay, one thing that I want you to do: go to my web site, which is unfetteredmind.org. HYPERLINK I can give you a card so you don\u2019t have to remember.\nStudent: That sounds good. Okay. [Laughter]\nKen: The easiest way to find this is to go under the Resources tab\u2014\nKen: And you will find an item there called Master List which just lists all the content on the site, which is way more than you want to know.\nKen: And do you remember where it is Art? That will be in Making Things Happen.\nArt: Podcasts\u2014\nKen: Yes, that\u2019s right, yeah.\nArt: Workshops or classes.\nKen: Yeah, it will be under classes or retreats.\nStudent: Okay so it\u2019s a podcast.\nKen: It\u2019s a podcast, and it\u2019s called Making Things Happen.\nKen: Okay. So it\u2019s a workshop that I did three or four years ago, which was just about how to make something happen. Now, the first thing I\u2019m going to say to you is don\u2019t try to get rid of this attachment!\nKen: No, I mean this is where you\u2019re alive. This is what you want to do. Why would you want to get rid of that?\nStudent: Well it\u2019s the suffering I think that I want to get rid of.\nKen: Oh that\u2019s totally different!\nStudent: Yeah, yeah, it\u2019s more of the suffering that the attachment is producing.\nKen: Yeah, But don\u2019t get rid of the attachment, I mean this is\u2014\nKen: You know attachment\u2019s got such a bad name, and I think it\u2019s a really bad translation, because there\u2019s a lot of confusion about it, but then I can get on my high horse and go on forever about that.\nStudent: I think it\u2019s more the suffering because what happens is there\u2019s so much suffering that I become\u2014I feel paralyzed.\nKen: Yeah, but look at what you\u2019re saying here.\nKen: That suffering is an expression of your longing.\nKen: Why would you want to get rid of that?\nStudent: I don\u2019t. I think it\u2019s more the\u2026let\u2019s see if I can try to\u2014it\u2019s creating so much tension in me that I feel paralyzed, and then I become very inefficient and unproductive\u2014\nStudent: In getting what I want.\nKen: And you know why?\nStudent: So it\u2019s very\u2026to me it\u2019s a very pragmatic kind of thing that is happening that I don\u2019t know how to solve with my meditation practice.\nKen: Yeah, right, well you\u2019re not going to solve it with your meditation practice.\nKen: But you know, that\u2019s\u2014meditation practice is going to give you the capabilities to solve it, but you\u2019re not going to solve it with your meditation practice. That\u2019s an important distinction.\nKen: Okay. So, you want this to happen tomorrow, don\u2019t you?\nStudent: Yes, actually today would be good. Now.\nKen: What today would be good. Oh, okay.\nStudent: Right now.\nKen: Oh I\u2019m sorry I forgot my magic wand. Come back next month and I\u2019ll try to remember it. [Laughter] Okay, now there are actually quite a few good books on this subject. I\u2019m not sure\u2014one good book is What Color is your Parachute, which you might pick up because it\u2019s helped a lot of people make career changes. But I would suggest you listen to that podcast because there are some very practical things about how to make something happen. But the one thing I am going to say is, every day do one thing that moves you in the direction you want. It doesn\u2019t have to be a big thing; it can be a very small thing. It may be a phone call, and you\u2019re going to talk with someone. Maybe it\u2019s looking up and getting some information from a website. Whatever. But every day you do one thing.\nStudent: So can I ask you, because every day I do lots of things but what happens is it\u2019s never\u2014in my mind, I think it\u2019s a lack of faith in my own ability. I actually do lots of things every day\u2026\nStudent: \u2026but it\u2019s never enough to get what I want. So it\u2019s kind of like, if I was just doing more, that\u2019s why it\u2019s not\u2014so that\u2019s where the suffering kind of comes in. It\u2019s this bar, this kind of bar that I continue to raise, and so how do you move through that using you know just being\u2026I guess just bringing equanimity to what I am doing right now and letting it be enough. I guess is what I am trying to.\nKen: Yeah, and see that is very different from working with attachment isn\u2019t it?\nKen: Yeah so through this discussion you\u2019re getting a clearer idea, you know. And here\u2019s what\u2019s possibly going to happen here. You\u2019re going to keep working at this stuff. And it\u2019s really great that you\u2019re doing stuff on a regular basis. So what you may do is move to allotting say an hour a day or whatever in which, \u201dThis is where I focus on my next career. I have this job that\u2019s providing me with the resources to be able to do this. But I\u2019m going to spend an hour a day working on where I want to get to.\u201d And then at a certain point you go, \u201cOkay, now this is rolling along I actually need to spend say two hours a day, or an hour and a half a day.\u201d And then you finally go, \u201cOh,\u201d and you reach this point, \u201cIf I am really going to move into this, now I have to let go of my job!\u201d Okay, \u201cI don\u2019t have enough to live on right now to do that, so I\u2019m going to work for six months and save a whole bunch of money, so that\u2026because it\u2019s gonna take me\u201d\u2014I don\u2019t know what you\u2019re doing so I am just going to pull numbers out of the air\u2014\u201cit\u2019s gonna take me at least three months of really working hard before this can generate any income, or maybe it\u2019s going to take a year before it generates any income, so I need to build up the resources so that I can work on it for that year.\u201d\nKen: \u201cTo the point that it\u2019s generating income.\u201d But you see what you\u2019re doing is putting the things in place which are going to allow you to make the shift.\nKen: Does that help?\nStudent: Yeah, that helps a lot. Yeah, thank you.\nKen: You\u2019re very welcome.\nKen: Okay, quick question right at the back here. Back to you.\nStudent: Mine was kind of in relation to her; you were kind of giving her a model for working with anger and frustration.\nStudent: Is it kind of the same model for sadness and loneliness, and the softer side? Because you were referring to one as hard and one as soft.\nStudent: If you are struggling with the soft stuff is it\u2014\nKen: Yes, that\u2019s a very good point. Where there\u2019s sadness there\u2019s always anger, you know. So find the anger and then include both. With loneliness, there\u2019s either a feeling of connection or a longing for connection. Because you don\u2019t feel lonely unless you want connection, so there\u2019s something you feel very connected to. So include both of those. And with everything that\u2019s throwing us out of balance in our lives, there\u2019s always the other pole, and the way to work with that is, find that other pole and then include the experience of both, and start with the body because it stops you going off into all kinds of stories. Okay?\nKen: You\u2019re welcome. Okay. So you\u2019ve wasted another perfectly good hour and a half [laughter]. Let\u2019s close with the dedication here.\nStudent: Car Talk?\nKen: Pardon? You recognize it? [Laughter] See I really need someone to do this with, and then we could have a great time [laughter]. There\u2019s a person up in Portland that I sometimes teach with, and we did a couple of retreats, and it was Mutt and Jeff, except one person wrote us an email afterwards and said, \u201cThe Buddhadharma should be taken seriously.\u201d [Laughter] So, we do in our own way. Okay.\nGoodness comes from this work we have done",

        "raw_content": "New Head Coach Matt Wells Delivers Powerful Speech to Texas Tech Football Team\nTexas Tech's new head football coach Matt Wells arrived in Lubbock Friday and wasted no time making his mark on the program.\nWells was introduced to the football team by the school's Athletic Director, Kirby Hocutt.\n\"We're still in transition. Change is hard. A lot of emotions, but today marks the healing stage and the process forward,\" Hocutt told the team. \"I'm proud each and every day to represent each and every one of you. You're good men, and you make me proud every day, and you make Texas Tech University proud.\"\nHocutt then introduced Wells, who said he was excited and honored to take over as head coach at Texas Tech. One of the first things Wells hammered home to the players was the type of mentality he would foster.\n\"I want you to understand, around this place, we'll always be a 'we, us and our' program,\" Wells said. \"Everything that we do is about that logo, that double T. That double T right there, it's bigger than one person. Everything's about that logo.\"\nRelated: Who the heck is Matt Wells?\nWells concluded his first team speech with a self-aware realization about the nature of the situation.\n\"I just want you to know, I chose you,\" Wells said. \"We -- Coach Patterson, Coach Yost, and some of these guys that are coming in here real quick -- we chose you. You didn't choose me. And you know what? I get that. I get it. I'm good with it right now. Give us a chance. Give me a chance. Give these guys a chance. Get to know us. Because you don't really care if we can coach one bit until you know that we care about you.\"\nWells will be introduced to Lubbock proper at a press conference Saturday morning (December 1) at the United Supermarkets Arena, Texas Tech Athletics announced. It's open to the public (via the northwest and southwest entrances on Indiana Avenue), and the doors open at 10 a.m. Free parking will be available in the lots immediately north and west of United Supermarkets Arena, the school announced. Wells is scheduled to speak at 11 a.m.\nTexas Tech will also stream the event on its Facebook and Twitter pages, and broadcast it live on TexasTech.TV.\nCategories: Lubbock News, Sports, Texas Tech, Videos",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Blogs \u00bb Charles Gaba's blog \u00bb GAO Report: ACA exchange policies LESS EXPENSIVE than off-exchange!\nGAO Report: ACA exchange policies LESS EXPENSIVE than off-exchange!\nWell this was an unexpected, but welcome surprise: The U.S. General Accounting Office has just released a new report which finds...\nAs of 2014, key provisions of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) resulted in the establishment of health insurance exchanges in each state and changed how insurers determined health insurance premiums. Individual market consumers generally had access to more health plans in 2015 compared to 2014, and in both years the lowest-cost plans were available through exchanges in most of the 1,886 counties GAO analyzed in the 28 states for which it had sufficiently reliable data for plans offered either on or off an exchange. In addition, consumers in most of the counties analyzed had six or more plans to choose from in three of the four health plan metal tiers (bronze, silver, and gold) in both 2014 and 2015, and the percentage of counties with six or more plans in those metal tiers increased from 2014 to 2015. Consumers had fewer options regarding platinum plans, although the availability of platinum plans generally also increased from 2014 to 2015. The lowest-cost plan available in a county was available on an exchange in most counties. For example, among the 1,886 counties analyzed, GAO found that the lowest-cost silver plan for a 30-year-old was available on an exchange in 63 percent of these counties in 2014 and in 81 percent of these counties in 2015\u2014an increase of 18 percentage points.\nWhen I first read this, my initial reaction was to say, \"Well, duh, of course the exchange plans are less expensive...84% of exchange enrollees are receiving federal tax credits to chop down their premiums!\"\nHowever, from what I can tell, the GAO report doesn't include the Advance Premium Tax Credits (APTC) at all; they're looking at the full price premiums in every case, both on and off the exchange.\nThe range of premiums available to consumers in 2014 and 2015 varied among the states and counties GAO analyzed. For example, in Arizona the lowest-cost silver plan option for a 30-year-old was $147 per month in both years, but in Maine, the lowest-cost silver plan options for a 30-year-old were $252 in 2014 and $237 in 2015. In the 28 states included in GAO\u2019s analysis, from 2014 to 2015 the minimum premiums for silver plans available to a 30-year-old increased in 18 states, decreased in 9 states, and remained unchanged in 1 state. At the county level, GAO found that premiums for the lowest-cost silver option available for a 30-year-old increased by 5 percent or more in 51 percent of the counties in the 28 states. GAO also found that the range of premiums\u2014from the lowest to highest cost\u2014differed considerably by state. For example, in Rhode Island, 2014 premiums for silver plans available to a 30-year-old either on or off an exchange ranged from a low of $241 per month to a high of $266 per month, a difference of 10 percent, and in 2015 ranged from a low of $217 per month to a high of $285 per month, a difference of 32 percent. By contrast, in Arizona, 2014 premiums for these plans ranged from a low of $147 per month to a high of $508 per month, a difference of 244 percent, and in 2015 ranged from a low of $147 per month to a high of $545 per month, a difference of 270 percent.\nUnfortunately, I wasn't able to find the average difference between \"on-exchange vs. off-exchange\" policies; either it's buried in the full report somewhere or there's too many variables at play to boil this down to a single number. Exchange-based policies could be a mere 0.1% less-expensive (barely worth noting) or they could be half the price (doubtful, but certainly newsworthy if true!). Even so, this still flies in the face of claims that it's \"more expensive\" to shop through the exchange if you're paying full price. Perhaps this news will encourage some people who have been enrolling directly through their insurance company to consider doing so via HealthCare.Gov/their state-based exchange this time around?\nYou can download the full data in Excel files for each state. For instance, here's Michigan:\nYes, this is extremely difficult to read, I know. Fortunately, it includes a lot of numbers which I don't really need. First, I'll kill off the 2014 rates because those aren't really relevant here:\nNext, I'll scrap the Minimum and Maximum dollar amounts and stick with just the Median in each category...and then run an average of all 5 \"consumer categories\" for each metal level and exchange category:\nAs you can see, in Michigan, at least, exchange-based Bronze plans are 7.5% less expensive than individual policies as a whole, while exchange-based Silver plans are 2.4% less expensive. Interestingly, the Gold and Silver plans are identically priced both on- and off-exchange.\nHowever, it's actually better than that (for Bronze and Silver). This compares exchange-based plans to all plans (including both on- and off-exchange). In order for the average of all Bronze plans to be $562, for instance, the off-exchange plans must average more than that, since the on-exchange ones are $520 on average.\nSince there's nearly twice as many bronze plan combinations off-exchange as on-exchange (and 52% more Silver combinations), I'm not sure the best way to figure this last piece of the puzzle, but the point remains that in Michigan, Bronze and Silver plans are 7.5% and 2.4% less expensive through the exchange than they are directly through the company...and that's without any financial assistance.",

        "raw_content": "aditimutatkar\tin Uncategorized\t February 7, 2016 February 7, 2016 747 Words\nIdeas on coaching\nWork on strength from a very early age\nI believe that Indians lack in strength as compared to the Europeans and the Asians. Work has to be put in right from the age 10 on the strength training of a child. The main two areas in badminton are the core strength and strong legs (especially calves). As a kid I started learning about strength training only after I turned 14. Though it is scientifically right that gym training should only start after the age of 13 because it hampers the natural growth of the child. It is also true that there are a lot of exercises that can be started which don\u2019t involve going to the gym. A child needs to undergo a strength program right from the start, the earlier the better.\nIndividual centric training\nThe big problem with academies is that because there are a lot of children, coaches tend to make one similar program for everybody because it is easier to run it that way. Though this is a good idea in the earlier or basic stages, after a certain period of time it is crucial to have a very specific training program for a specific player. As a coach from the 20 children I am in charge of I should pick up 5 to 6 kids who I think are doing better than the others and jot down a program according to their weaknesses. It just makes no sense to work on someone\u2019s attack because others are weak on it , while actually the player needs work on the defence.\nTo push players to think about their game from an early stage\nIt is extremely important to push children to maintain a diary. Self-analysis is the best way to move forward. These diaries should include them writing down about their own weaknesses and their own solutions on it. There should be a discussion every end of the week on this with the coach. As a kid learns to think independently about his game it helps him to make his own strategies against different opponents in the future. A ten year old kid won\u2019t have too much skill in writing about his weaknesses and there is 80% chance that he also might be wrong. The point here is not right and wrong but the ability to think independently. Badminton is a lonely sport. You have to make decisions very quickly in matches. The earlier they get into a habit of thinking for themselves the easier it will be in the advance stages.\nI think it is crucial to have an expert in this field in the academy. We need to build a system where a player is not worried about getting injured. Also we have to find ways of funding them if they are financially not too strong. Injuries need to be handled in a very scientific way. If not, the players tend to find themselves in a vicious circle. It needs immense amount of mental strength to get out positively out of it, and not every player would have that strength. There needs to be a team which is working on making their physical pain as less as possible. A masseur, an orthopaedic, a physio-therapist is a necessity as the academy players enter a competitive stage. Just the feeling of having a team to fall back on, brings in a lot of confidence in their performances. It helps immensely in their preparations.\nRight kind of marketing, funds and corporate sponsors at the right time\nWhen a player is doing really well with their performances. It is extremely important to get him sponsors. We need to have a vision for a kid. Every player that is doing well should have some kind of sponsorship behind him. Having financial backing is crucial in planning international tournaments for the players. A player should not be dependant on the associations that run the sport to play the tournaments they want to play. Ofcourse only the top few players of the academy should be given this help. this not only helps the players who are getting the sponsors but it generally helps in having a healthy competitive environment within the academy. Every kid will have a motivation to do well in competitions realising that they would be rewarded for their effort. Also the ones who are at the top will have to maintain their level knowing if they don\u2019t they could be replaced by the next lot of players waiting in the wings.\nFinding Extra in the Ordinary\nThe curse of Big Bazaar\nOne thought on \u201cIdeas on coaching\u201d\nChuni Lal Verma says:\nThis basic strategyis very helpful for Coaches.I admire it .Such article on specific Skills of the game helps a lot to young coaches.Ihave seen in Academies, same training course is applied .That produces more jacks than kings of the game.Not only Strengthbut other skills like Stamina,Endurance,basic techniques,tactics,psychological factors should be included.\u2014-CLVerma.Badminton Coach.DAV Public School Sri Muktsar Sahib (Pb).",

        "raw_content": "Turks still support Western values despite U.S.-bashing\nTurkish society is largely supportive of Western values and the United States\u2019 own hubris is allowing local leaders to depict it as an enemy, the German Marshall Fund of the United States said in a report.\n\u201cContrary to the general perception, Turkish society is actually not drifting away from the Western values and is, on the contrary, concerned about the course of fundamental values of the Turkish Republic with a strong quest for preservation of secularism,\u201d it said.\nHowever, \u201cabout the low favourability ratings of the United States, and anti-Western attitudes, there is a need for action,\u201d the report said.\nNearly 79 percent of Turkish citizens now want the country to become a member of the European Union, a record high, the report said.\n\u201cMore striking is the fact that in the same poll, 34.5 percent stated the reason behind their support as an expectation for enhanced democracy and human rights in the country,\u201d it said.\nSecularism was also coming back into vogue, with the ruling party choosing to adopt a more positive position towards the country\u2019s staunchly secularist founder, Mustafa Kemal Atat\u00fcrk, in response to shifts in national feeling.\nHowever, the U.S. government was leaving the characterisation of the United States to its enemies, the report said.\n\u201cThe U.S. State Department and government officials are disinterested in their counterparts\u2019 use of anti-American rhetoric for its domestic audience unless a problem emerges in running day-to-day business,\u201d it said.\n\u201cThere are no allocated resources to general public outreach or efforts to connect and communicate with common people in Turkey.\u201d\nThe Turkish public is more concerned about U.S. sponsorship of the sister-groups of the Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK), which has been fighting Turkey for more than 30 years.\n\u201cWithout effective communication to the Turkish public, this antagonism will not go away,\u201d the report said.\n\u201cU.S. officials and their Turkish counterparts should work together to provide unbiased information about the issues of convergence and divergence in bilateral relations.\u201d\nhttp://www.gmfus.org/publications/turkey-us-alliance-between-past-and-f\u2026\nPhoto Credit: Dmitry Chulov / Shutterstock",

        "title": "A Global Bestseller Turns 40 - Aid to the Church in Need\u2019s Children\u2019s Bible Celebrates Anniversary - Aid to the Church in Need",
        "raw_content": "Children\u2019s Bible relieves longing for God\n\u201cThe letters we have received over the past 40 years, in which children, families, bishops and pastoral workers have expressed their thanks for the children\u2019s Bible, bear witness to the deep longing for God that this book continues to relieve today,\u201d said Dr Heine-Geldern. Divided into 99 short chapters, God Speaks to His Children retells the most important texts of the Old and New Testament in a way that is easy for children to understand. The stories in the current edition of the children\u2019s Bible were written by German theologian Eleonore Beck (1926-2014) and brightly illustrated by the Spanish religious sister Miren-Sorne Gomez (*1937). The illustrations have become popular in religious instruction and catechesis.\nThe \u201cfather\u201d of the children\u2019s Bible was the Dutch Norbetine, Father Werenfried van Straaten (1913-2003), the founder of Aid to the Church in Need. When the United Nations proclaimed 1979 as the \u201cYear of the Child\u201d, this became the impetus for the realisation of a long-cherished idea of Father Werenfried. He wrote at the time: \u201cChildren need something like a children\u2019s Bible so that the image of Christ will become a living one in their hearts. The Church often does not have the means to acquire a children\u2019s Bible written in the native language. Or the Church is being persecuted and is not allowed to publish literature of this kind. Many children are so poor that they cannot afford to buy a book. And so we would like to give them the Bible as a gift.\u201d\nImage: Father Werenfried van Straaten (1913-2003), the founder of Aid to the Church in Need.\nCredit: Balz R\u00f6thlin\nIn great demand from the very beginning\nACN presented the children\u2019s Bible at the Conference of the Latin American Bishops that took place in late January 1979 in Puebla, Mexico, and was also attended by Pope John Paul II on his first foreign tour. The response was overwhelming: the bishops immediately ordered 1.2 million copies in Spanish. As soon as missionaries, bishops and catechists from other countries learned of its existence, additional translations became necessary. Today, the Bible is available in 189 languages, from Afar, which is spoken by around 1.5 million people of the same name in Ethiopia, Eritrea and Djibouti, to isiZulu, a Bantu language spoken in southern Africa. New translations are added regularly. After all, more than 2,000 distinct languages are spoken in Africa alone. There, the children\u2019s Bible continues to play an important role in fostering literacy today.\nImage: 2,400 copies of the children's Bible were given out to primary school students in Chachapoyas, Peru: 05.09.2018.\nCopyright: Aid to the Church in Need\nFrom the very beginning, ACN has distributed the children\u2019s Bible in poor countries free of charge. In more affluent countries, it is sold at cost price. The editions with the widest distribution are those in Spanish (around 14 million), Portuguese (10.3 million), English (2.5 million), French (1.2 million) and the East African language Swahili (950 000). Following the collapse of the Soviet Union, the Russian edition of the children\u2019s Bible was mentioned by a Christian radio station. ACN was flooded with half a million orders within a short amount of time. The popes also recognised the importance of the children\u2019s Bible. Pope Benedict XVI, for example, handed out the ten millionth copy of the Brazilian-Portuguese edition of the children\u2019s Bible during his pastoral visit to Brazil in May of 2007.\nImage: Pastoral trip of Pope Benedict XVI to Brazil where he distributed the ten millionth copy of the Brazilian-Portuguese edition of the ACN children\u00b4s Bible \"God speaks to his children\" 12th of May 2007.\nCredit: Evil\u00e1zio Bezerra\nIn 2019 Aid to the Church in Need continues to provide children's Bibles to the world's poorest children.\nYou can support this project by donating at the link below:\nwww.aidtochurch.org/childsbible",

        "raw_content": "There\u2019s a new force in education \u2014 and it\u2019s ready to take the country by storm! Meet \u201cS.T.E.A.M Mobile,\u201d a learning experience on wheels that even sports its own classroom 3D printer.\nWhat is S.T.E.A.M Mobile?\nA project launched by the National College Resources Foundation (NCRF), S.T.E.A.M Mobile is on a mission to \u201creach and inspire students through an interactive, fun and appealing curriculum.\u201d S.T.E.A.M Mobile is pretty much exactly what it sounds like \u2014 a Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts/Agriculture and Mathematics, or S.T.E.A.M, learning environment on wheels.\nS.T.E.A.M Mobile houses an actual classroom in a massive Airstream trailer. Stocked with laptops, toolkits, and supplies, S.T.E.A.M Mobile is of course outfitted with its own mobile classroom 3D printer, the AXIOM. While the original S.T.E.A.M. Mobile trailers fit eight students, NCRF is currently developing even larger trailers that can fit up to 18 students at a time.\nWhy was S.T.E.A.M. Mobile created?\nBecause it can go just about anywhere, S.T.E.A.M Mobile is ideal for bringing S.T.E.A.M. learning to kids who might not otherwise have easy access to a classroom 3D printer or this type of education. According to NCRF, there are currently four million S.T.E.A.M. jobs available in the United States, but we do not have a workforce that is educated or trained to fill those jobs. On top of that, there are even fewer minorities and women that are actively working in S.T.E.A.M. fields.\nTo add to the problem, the NCRF explained, the United States used to to be the top-ranking country in the world for education and we have now dropped to 14th place.\nS.T.E.A.M Mobile seeks to fix this deficit by bringing S.T.E.A.M. education into low-income communities that are not equipped with the resources to educate and empower kids. By using cutting-edge technology, like a classroom 3D printer, S.T.E.A.M. Mobile hopes to engage students and get them excited about the S.T.E.A.M. subjects that are so crucial to a 21st Century economy.\nPutting a mobile classroom 3D printer to good use\nSo what are these students making on their mobile classroom 3D printer? S.T.E.A.M. Mobile designs lessons that are challenging, but fun and engaging. For example, in their Pilot Airstream S.T.E.A.M. program, NCRF took 38 students from Fremont High School in Pomona, CA through a week-long curriculum using S.T.E.A.M. concepts to design and assemble a 3D-printed LED clip-on light.\nHow Kids Can Attend a S.T.E.A.M. Mobile Summer Camp\nIf you are near California Polytechnic State University in San Luis Obispo,CA, S.T.E.A.M. Mobile will be holding two summer camps for 7th and 8th graders. The five-day camp will be filled with fun projects that include Robotics, Rocketry and, of course, 3D printing.\nThe camp costs $100 and will be held on July 10-14, 2017 and again on July 24-28, 2017.\nEach day of the camp lasts from 8:30 am to 4:30 pm. All materials and snacks will be provided, but students must bring their own brown bag lunch.\nVisit NCRF\u2019s website to download the registration form. But if you\u2019re interested, you better hurry! The registration deadline is July 3, 2017 and space is extremely limited with only eight students per class.\nSupport S.T.E.A.M. Mobile\u2019s Mission\nIf you want to support S.T.E.A.M. Mobile\u2019s incredible mission of spreading S.T.E.A.M. education throughout the U.S., they would love to hear from you! Become a sponsor, learn other ways to help, or find out how to bring S.T.E.A.M. Mobile to your community by contacting the National College Resources Foundation.\nInterested in learning more about how 3D printers in education help ignite students\u2019 passion in STEM subjects?

        "raw_content": "Scroll through your newsfeed, turn on the news, open the newspaper - there is no shortage of opinions on how we should keep our schools safe. Everyone has their thoughts as to how we protect our young people in this new era of constant threats. In recent weeks, we've been reminded that the health and safety of our youth is never guaranteed. While we could debate policy and perspective surrounding the current tragedy, there are promising outcomes unfolding. We've been reminded of the power that young people have to bring about change. This isn't the first time we've seen teens rise above the social challenges of the day.\nThe year was 1981, and in a small town outside of Boston, a similar revolution was in the works. After the death of their friends and classmates in alcohol-related car crashes, the teens of Wayland High School realized that if they were going to stop the preventable deaths of their friends, they needed to be part of the solution. Thus, the first chapter of Students Against Driving Drunk (SADD - Now Students Against Destructive Decisions) was born. As the nation's premier youth health and safety organization, SADD currently works to empower teens, engage parents, mobilize communities, and change lives around the issues of traffic safety, substance abuse, and personal health and safety.\nBeing a teen today is tough. The pressures to confirm, achieve, look a certain way, act a certain way - it all comes together to create a world where young people often contemplate risky behaviors. We know that the involvement of a caring parent/adult is key. We also know that law enforcement is the backbone of our culture, working to keep our communities safe. Adults can have influence, but we've seen time and time again the ability that one young person has to change the outcome of a situation by doing one simple thing - speaking up.\nThe needless and often times preventable deaths of children and teens is something so unspeakable - it's hard to even process. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, in 2016, we lost nearly 2,082 [1] teens on our roadways due to distracted, impaired, and drowsy drivers. That's an average of five young people a day. We are losing thousands of youth each year to the current opioid crisis. One in four American teens has a diagnosable mental health disorder - many tied to depression, anxiety, and bullying.\nHow do these statistics make you feel? Do they make you want to take action? Good! Here are four easy things you can do today:\nStart a SADD Chapter - It's simple. Go to sadd.org to find out how.\nEmpower, Engage, Mobilize - It is easy to get involved. Start by talking with your teens about these issues. We have conversation starters and more - make sure you're following us on social media (@SADDNation).\nShare a Message of Hope - Our partners at Sandy Hook Promise have great resources that SADD Chapters are using to spread a message of hope.\nGive - We cannot do it alone. Every day we work to raise funds that will help to drive our mission to save lives and protect communities. Give a gift today and save a life.\nLet's turn this adversity into action and celebrate the power of this youth movement. Let's join these young people - who are not the leaders of tomorrow, they are the leaders of today.\nhttps://www.nhtsa.gov/road-safety/teen-driving",

This marked the first time that U.S. Marines competed in MTWC-18.\nLocated at the renowned Chamrousse ski resort high above the city of Grenoble, the event provided some challenging Olympic-tier courses and incredibly difficult scenarios. In addition to the French hosts, teams from Germany, Italy, Lebanon, Georgia and the United Kingdom took part in the event.\nThe first of two days consisted of a welcoming introduction by the French leadership, the international teams familiarizing themselves with the French FAMAS service rifle, and later into the evening, the main touring ski event up to the top of the summit at Chamrousse. The event posed significant challenges due to the steep incline on certain portions of the track and incredibly high winds. While the first competitors reached the top around 8:30 pm, the Marines summited around 9:15 pm, in front of the Lebanese and Georgian teams and several French teams.\nAfter every team had summited, they were given torches to carry down the mountain in ceremonial fashion per French tradition. At the bottom of the mountain a small celebration was held to commemorate the completion of the first day, with a light show and hot food.\nThe second day of the competition consisted of another touring ski event up the mountain, with a casualty evacuation with a snow litter on the way back down. The shooting portion was cancelled due to hazardous weather conditions at the summit where shooting would have taken place. The competition concluded with a final award ceremony. Overall, the Marines placed fourth internationally among the six nations that participated in the competition.\n\u201cIt has been a pleasure to have the U.S. Marines compete here this year,\u201d said the French Major who was the primary organizer and requested to remain anonymous. \u201cWe hope that you enjoyed yourself and enjoyed the challenge, and we hope to see you again next year.\u201d\nPreventive Medicine, Saving Lives",

The series of field trips are designed to complement the courses taught in the various modules and is an integral element in the overall program structure. In addition, as part of the Irish Studies program, an introductory non-credit class in the Irish language (Gaelic) is provided for interested students.\nRegistration takes place upon arrival; however, we recommend that students have 3 courses approved by their home university prior to departure, in order to allow for scheduling conflicts and the possible unavailability of certain classes. Students will be asked to indicate their choices in order of preference on the application form.\nEach student will choose two of the following courses, for a total of 6 semester credits.\nSU401 Representing Ireland Literature and Film\nThe aim of this course is to analyze the varied ways in which \u2018Ireland\u2019 and \u2018Irishness\u2019 have been represented in a range of English-language media, including fiction, poetry, drama, and film. The course will be structured around particular themes such as the representation of \u2018The West\u2019, the contrast between city and country, the politics of theatre, gender identity, and the meaning of Irish nationality. We will be reading works by Irish writers such as W.B. Yeats, James Joyce, Augusta Gregory, J.M. Synge, Liam O\u2019Flaherty, Brian Friel, Eavan Boland and Patrick McCabe. We will also view and discuss a number of films from both American and Irish filmmakers. The course may include a visit to Yeats\u2019 \u2018Thoor Ballylee\u2019 and Lady Gregory\u2019s Coole Park estate in south County Galway.\n*These two courses (SU401 and SU406) are taught at the same time and cannot be taken together.\nSU402 Archaeology of Ireland\nIreland\u2019s archaeological heritage is one of the richest in Western Europe. The development of Irish Society down through the ages can be seen in the great Neolithic monuments of the Boyne valley such as Newgrange and Knowth and also in the wealth of bronze implements and gold ornaments of the succeeding Bronze Age. The Celtic Iron Age is represented by sites like Tara, Co. Meath, and the great stone forts of D\u00fan Aenghusa on the Aran Islands and Aileach in Donegal. From the early Christian Period, monastic ruins and high crosses survive at sites such as Clonmacnoise while the finds from Dublin, Ireland\u2019s millennium capital, tell us of the Viking raids and settlement. Romanesque and Gothic churches, castles and abbeys represent the early medieval heritage and Galway, itself an Anglo-Norman foundation, provides an immediate and local wealth of sites and features dating from the later medieval period.\nThe course, outlining the archaeological heritage of Ireland from its beginnings, about 8000 B.C., to the early Medieval period, will be particularly suitable for students majoring in Archaeology, Anthropology, Sociology or History. The lectures will be fully illustrated throughout, with field trips to several relevant prehistoric and historic locations.\nSU403 Irish History\nThis course will treat of the different peoples who became permanent settlers in Ireland over the centuries and of the contribution that each has made to the development of an Irish society and economy, and to a distinctive Irish artistic and political life. The earlier lectures will consider the Celts, the Vikings, and the Anglo-Normans, but the principal focus will be on the modern centuries with a detailed treatment of English and Scottish Protestant settlement in Ireland and of the interaction of these settlers and their descendants with the existing Catholic population. Special attention will be given to the major conflicts that occurred, especially those of 1641-52, the 1790\u2019s and the current conflict in Northern Ireland. There will also be lectures on the role of women in Irish life and especially in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. The course will be of interest to majors in History, Politics, and Literature as well as anybody wishing to be guided to the best recent literature on Ireland\u2019s past. There will be field trips as an integral part of the course\nSU404 Gaelic Culture and Literature\nGaelic Literature is the oldest vernacular literature in Western Europe; this course will trace the development and its cultural context from earliest times to the present day. Despite the vicissitudes of history and the flagging fortunes of the Gaelic language, this literature not only manages to survive but is, now, actually displaying signs of vibrant and exciting creativity. Though very much citizens of the world, contemporary Gaelic writers are conscious of their inherited tradition, and freely exploit the rich resources of Gaelic folklore, thus creating a unique and distinctive spirit in their writing. A knowledge of the Gaelic language is not a prerequisite; classes will be in English.\n**These two courses (SU405 and SU407) are taught at the same time and cannot be taken together.\nSU405 Irish Society\nA comprehensive study of issues in modern Irish society including family, kinship and marriage patterns; the impact of religion; the role of women; rural and urban communities; social change and social problems such as emigration, poverty, and conflict in contemporary Ireland. The course will also act as an introduction to Irish community studies, which commenced in nearby Co. Clare with the classic anthropological study, Family, and Community in Ireland. This course is suitable for all students interested in contemporary Ireland, especially students majoring in Sociology and Anthropology, students from Liberal Arts programmes or those who are interested in the social background to Anglo-Irish and Gaelic Literature.\nSU406 Negotiating Identity in Irish Music and Dance\nMusical expression allows individuals and communities to negotiate identities and declare boundaries. The complex relationship between Irish traditional music and a national/ethnic identity is one of the main areas which will be examined in this course. Irish immigrant communities used traditional music as a means of maintaining ethnic identity. Because of the particular strategies that were employed, Irish traditional music also served, on occasion, as a means of assimilation. Particular social, geographical and political circumstances also meant that Irish communities in Britain differed significantly from their counterparts in the U.S. Parallel negotiations of identity took place on Irish soil, which was very often bound up with the aspiration towards a national ideal. This course will offer the opportunity to explore such issues through readings, discussions, and seminars\nSU407 Introduction to Art in Ireland\nThis course traces the development of Irish art from Newgrange to the 2009 Venice Biennale. Students will be introduced to a wide variety of prehistoric art before moving on to consider the outstanding artistic achievements of the \u2018Golden Age\u2019 of Irish art, including the Book of Kells, the Tara Brooch and Irish High Crosses. The second half of the course will focus on how the \u2018rediscovery\u2019 of this early artistic legacy informed later artists, culminating in the \u2018Celtic Revival\u2019 of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. In exploring the development of modern art in Ireland, students will learn to appraise and evaluate a broad spectrum of Irish art both iconographically and art historically, including the work of Jack Yeats, Mainie Jellett, and Louis le Brocquy. The course will conclude with an overview of trends in contemporary Irish art. A key question underlying the various strands of the course will be the development of a distinctly Irish cultural identity in the visual arts and the influence of international trends on Irish artists throughout the ages.\nSU408 Creative Writing: Poetry and Fiction\nThis course will be a workshop in the writing of prose and poetry. Students may choose the genre they wish to emphasize, engaging in experimentation, writing and rewriting under the supervision of the directors and the faculty. Workshops will involve review, analysis, and editing, in an atmosphere of constructive criticism and support. There will be individual contributions from a number of the country\u2019s leading writers.\nGreat opportunity to study Irish literature, history, and culture!",

        "raw_content": "magical scientific realism \u2014\nThe best part of Fantastic Beasts is that it\u2019s about science\nThe new Harry Potter film is part of a trend toward science-oriented fantasy stories.\nAnnalee Newitz - Dec 5, 2016 4:30 pm UTC\nEnlarge / Newt Scamander with an endangered bird he's hoping to release back into its native habitat in Arizona.\nThe animals in Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them are so compelling that it\u2019s easy to ignore the movie\u2019s otherwise mediocre plot. That\u2019s because the magizoologist character Newt Scamander (Eddie Redmayne) is a science hero who has somehow found himself in a fantasy movie. Sure, he's a wizard who carries a massive lab around with him in a cunning suitcase that\u2019s a lot bigger on the inside. But despite all the spell-casting, this Harry Potter prequel offers some of the most realistic representations of environmental research field work you\u2019re likely to see in a movie this decade.\nSome spoilers ahead. C\u2019mon people, you\u2019ve had weeks to see this movie.\nNot everything about Fantastic Beasts is worthwhile, so let\u2019s ignore the incoherent plot about temperance politics and the Magical Congress of the USA and Johnny Depp\u2019s hair and anti-magical repression something something. None of it made any more sense than a standard episode of True Blood. Luckily, it felt like a backdrop to the real story of this film, which is about Newt coming to the United States so that he can release a giant, Cretaceous-looking magical bird back into its natural habitat.\nUnfortunately, Newt carries his lab and all his animals in a suitcase with rather unreliable locks. After some goofy shenanigans, a few of his \u201cfantastic creatures\u201d escape, and he\u2019s sent on a crazy quest to recapture them all before they hurt someone\u2014or, more likely, a human kills them.\nFantastic Beasts turns all the tropes of the magical monster movie on its head with the Newt storyline. This is no Godzilla emergency or Gremlins scenario, where magical animals threaten a city with their deadly powers. Instead, the bad guys are humans (magical and otherwise) who don\u2019t care about whether rare animals go extinct. Newt is also not your typical monster hunter, either. He doesn\u2019t have cages or toxic darts or Pok\u00e9balls. Instead, his suitcase lab holds an enormous outdoor area inside, full of different habitats, where all the animals can live in the environments that suit them.\nEnlarge / Newt in his laboratory, inside the vast realm of animal habitats he's got hidden inside his suitcase.\nIn one of the movie\u2019s best scenes, Newt brings his new friends Porpentina and Jacob into the suitcase to help him at feeding time. He\u2019s got a well-stocked room full of the exact kinds of kibble enjoyed by infinitely expanding serpents, giant birds, fluffy whatevers, nifflers, and dozens of other creatures. The animals are only in this place because Newt is protecting them from extinction, he explains. His goal is to release them back into their native habitats when they are ready. At the same time, he\u2019s questing to find more endangered animals so he can take them out of harm\u2019s way.\nEverything about Newt\u2019s work, from the habitats he maintains to his meticulous note-taking on the animals, is startlingly similar to what environmental scientists do every day. That he\u2019s working in the middle of bustling New York City makes his work even more realistic, since human disturbance is the main reason why animals are pushed out of their habitats and threatened with extinction. Somehow, a movie about magic wand fights and evil shapeshifters gave us a science hero trying to protect biological diversity. As author JK Rowling said about the movie in a release, \u201cI had this idea that Newt was the lone voice saying, 'We have to preserve these creatures. We shouldn't be exterminating them.'\"\nMagical scientific realism\nRowling isn\u2019t the first fantasy author to bring environmental science into her work. Perhaps the most famous example is the breathtaking 1997 Hayao Miyazaki movie Princess Mononoke, about how the spirits of nature do battle with industrialists who want to destroy the forest. One could easily argue that this is a theme in Lord of the Rings, too.\nBut since the 1990s, we\u2019ve seen an explosion of real geoscience and zoology in fantasy tales. Perhaps the most famous example is the Game of Thrones series, based on George RR Martin\u2019s series A Song of Ice and Fire. The geological and climatological implications of this series are so rich that a group of grad students at Stanford wrote a not-entirely-joking scholarly monograph about the geology of Westros.\nNJ Jemisin\u2019s award-winning Broken Earth trilogy explores climate change and plate tectonics on an alien world full of people who use a magical power called orogeny to control geophysics with their minds. Orogeny is a scientific term for the movement of the Earth\u2019s crust.\nClassic horror series like Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Supernatural often feature secret scholarly societies devoted to chronicling magical monsters. Much like Newt, whose scientific treatise is also called Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, these \u201cWatchers\u201d or secret orders are essentially magizoologists who track all the wildlife that can\u2019t be perceived by their Mundane counterparts.\nEnlarge / In this cover art from one of the books in Marie Brennan's Natural History of Dragons series, a sea serpent's morphology is compared to other sea creatures.\nMeanwhile, the hero of Marie Brennan\u2019s A Natural History of Dragons series is about a 19th century naturalist named Lady Trent writing a memoir about her studies of the world's dragon species. As we follow along on her field work, we\u2019re treated to extensive analysis of dragon phylogenies, reproductive strategies, and evolutionary niches. We also find dragon naturalists among the characters in Naomi Novik\u2019s Temeraire series, an alternate history where the Napoleonic Wars are fought with dragons. In both Brennan's and Novik\u2019s novels, the treatment and preservation of dragons is of paramount importance to the characters. These fearsome beasts may have deadly breath weapons, but they are in grave danger from humans.\nPerhaps one of the most literary works of magical environmental realism is Ekaterina Sedia\u2019s novel The House of Discarded Dreams. In it, a biology researcher conducts experiments where she has to drain the blood from thousands of horseshoe crabs. Sedia, herself a biologist, is describing actual scientific experiments that take advantage of a chemical in horseshoe crab blood that's sensitive to bacterial contamination. The blood is used to test the purity of medicines and other substances. Every year, over half a million horseshoe crabs are bled and released\u2014most survive, but a significant percentage are unable to recover. It's this blood debt that haunts the biologist in House of Discarded Dreams. One day, she wakes up to find her house has drifted out to sea, and she\u2019s at the mercy of horseshoe crab spirits who aren\u2019t pleased with what she\u2019s done.\nThese days, you're just as likely to find the scientific method lurking in a story about sparkly dragon riders as you are in a tale about space battles or robots.

        "raw_content": "Lobbyists beware: judge rules metadata is public record\nThe Arizona Supreme Court has ruled that the metadata attached to public \u2026\nJon Stokes - Oct 30, 2009 2:22 am UTC\nThe Arizona state Supreme Court has ruled that the metadata attached to public records is itself public, and cannot be withheld in response to a public records request. Such a ruling on file metadata may not seem like a huge win for open government advocates, but it definitely is, given that metadata has unmasked more than one lobbyist's effort to influence Congress.\nIn the Arizona case, a police officer had been demoted in 2006 after reporting \"serious police misconduct\" to his superiors. He suspected that the demotion was done in retaliation for his blowing the whistle on his fellow officers, so he requested and obtained copies of his performance reports from the department. Thinking that perhaps the negative performance reports had been created after the fact and then backdated, he then demanded access to the file metadata for those reports, in order to find out who had written them and when.\nThe department refused to grant him access to the metadata, and the matter went to court. After working its way through the court system in a series of rulings and appeals, this past January an Arizona appeals ruled that even though the reports themselves were public records, the metadata was not. It turned out that Arizona state law doesn't actually define \"public record\" anywhere, so the appeals court relied on various common law definitions to determine that the metadata, as a mere byproduct of the act of producing a public record on a computer, was not a public record itself.\nThe case was then appealed to the Arizona state Supreme Court, which has now ruled that the metadata is, in fact, a public record just like the document that it's attached to.\nMetadata follies, and the case of Google\nIf you want to know how important metadata can be in public policy deliberations, Google's history with it can be instructive, since the search giant has been both hurt and helped by metadata snooping.\nLast year, the The Australian Competition Commission and Consumer Commission (ACCC) received hundreds of electronically submitted feedback letters opposing eBay Australia's decision to go PayPal-only for accepting auction payments. One of the most impressive letters was a 38-page missive that had obviously been written by someone with extensive and intimate knowledge of payment systems. A look at the letter's PDF metadata revealed that the author of the letter was none other than Google, which was upset that Google Checkout was being excluded in favor of PayPal. The metadata also revealed, embarrassingly enough, that the PDF had been written not in Google Docs, but in Microsoft Word.\nThe very next month, the tables were turned when the American Corn Grower's Association somewhat surprisingly threw its weight behind the idea that Congress should launch a hearing to look into the possible anti-trust implications of the Google-Yahoo advertising deal. CNET's Declan McCullagh took a look at the PDF letter that the group submitted to Congress, and found that it had been authored by a staffer at the LawMedia Group, a DC lobbying shop whose client list includes the anti-Google, anti-net neutrality National Cable and Telecommunications Association.\nTo leave Google's metadata mixups and go back even further in time, one of the most famous metadata lobbying goof-ups occurred in 2004, when Wired busted California Attorney General Bill Lockyer circulating an anti-P2P letter that, after a look at its Word metadata, appeared to have been either drafted or edited by the MPAA.\nAs open government projects that solicit feedback from the public gain traction at the federal and local level, these types of metadata-related discoveries will become more and more common. Guaranteeing that file metadata is available to the public will make help to ensure that we know who is trying to influence public discussion.\nLake vs. City of Phoenix: is Metadata a Public Record?

        "raw_content": "The History of Info-Glut: Euler, Mayer and the Invention of Statistics\nWe tend to think of information overload as a new problem. Kristin Luker\u2019s excellent methods of research advice guide/textbook, Salsa Dancing into the Social Sciences, is subtitled Research in an Age of Info-glut. But what is info-glut? And when did it start?\nThe mathematician in me wants to define info-glut in a sort of peculiar way.* Think back to algebra. It won\u2019t hurt, I promise! Suppose you\u2019ve got a system of equations with a few unknowns. There are only three possibilities:\nYou don\u2019t know enough (not enough equations) and so there are an infinite number of \u201ccorrect\u201d answers.\u201d\nYou know exactly the right amount, and there is one \u201cGoldilocks\u201d solution.\nYou have too many equations \u2013 you know too much \u2013 and there are no possible solutions.\nThe last answer \u2013 known as an \u201coverdetermined system\u201d \u2013 is how I think about info-glut. If you are in situation two, your path is straightforward, there is one right answer**. Situation one is desperate, and there\u2019s no right path. In situation three, you have too much to work with and everything can\u2019t be right.\nBut what if you already know that your information isn\u2019t quite right? In other words, if you think your observations have some error? The obvious answer to we moderns is to combine the data into a statistic, like an average.\nIn 1749, no one had yet mastered this trick.*** Euler, a justly famous and important mathematician, when faced with too many observations of the orbits of Jupiter and Saturn to solve for too few unknowns wrote, \u201cNow, from these equations we can only conclude nothing; and the reason, perhaps, is that I have tried to satisfy several observations exactly, whereas I should have only satisfied them approximately; and this error has then multiplied itself.\u201d (Quoted in Stigler 1990: 27). Euler\u2019s failure to deal with his info-glut led him as far as to question whether Newton\u2019s inverse square law held over large distances (ibid: 30).\nWriting just one year later about the libration of the moon, Tobias Mayer would propose a first solution to the problem of combining observations. Given 27 equations (observations) for three unknowns, Mayer strategically grouped the 27 into three groups of nine and added them up within those group. He thus reduced his overdetermined system of 27 equations into an exactly determined system of three, but still capturing something from each observation. His info-glut was gone.\nLaplace improved on Mayer\u2019s method, and soon after this \u201cmethod of averages\u201d was replaced with the modern least squares estimators. All of them solve the same fundamental problem: how to estimate a set of unknowns given too much information (none of which is perfect). We\u2019ve long since automated these solutions \u2013 check out your favorite statistics package or even just spreadsheet program \u2013 and we no longer think of having too many observations as a \u201cproblem\u201d. But Euler, working before this first solution, did.\nAll of this is to say that new statistical techniques, especially ones that become settled conventions, solve problems in info-glut. These solutions encode particular choices about what features of the world to emphasize \u2013 for example, assuming normal distributions makes us think in terms of mean and variance, and not so much about \u201cfat tails\u201d, a problem for modern finance (see MacKenzie\u2019s work). Our modern iteration of this centuries old problem is only different in quantity****, not in kind. The proliferation of kinds of data awaits new methods for simplifying it. Info-glut, in other words, is relative to the advance of statistical methods that become taken-for-granted and institutionalized.\n* To be fair, Luker is specifically talking about info-glut in the context of qualitative and historical (and \u201cnon-canonical\u201d) research, and so this mathematically-inspired presentation doesn\u2019t really do her work justice. On the other hand, the boundaries between qualitative and quantitative are never quite so rigid. See, for example, natural language processing methods.\n** As Asimov noted, \u201cThe number two is ridiculous and can\u2019t exist.\u201d\n*** The rest of this comes from Stigler\u2019s excellent The History of Statistics: The Measurement of Uncertainty before 1900, chapter 1.\n****Get it?\nhttps://asociologist.com/2011/05/03/the-history-of-info-glut-euler-mayer-and-the-invention-of-statistics/\nWhy is a Market Like an Election? Keynes vs. Hayek on Planning\nNYT LTE: Video Games Not A \u201cSolitary Pastime\u201d\nReally interesting Dan! I like this framing a lot. The search problem is another thing that has to be solved under conditions of perceived information glut, especially given our cognitive limitations. Since \u2018knowledge\u2019 is organized discretely, its aggregation into a statistic can sometimes be problematic. Perhaps in environments where we can find a really accurate instrument, statistics are appropriate, but when considering information glut in a social environment, there may be other issues to tend to. Very interesting to think about.",

It was blue collar workers who felt they had been overlooked by Obama and by Democrats. Who were offended by the headlong rush into identity politics, and by policies that protected everything but their jobs and their livelihoods.\nIt was voters in Ohio and Pennsylvania, who had seen local industries move overseas, and it was voters in Michigan, who were aggrieved that Hillary Clinton took their votes for granted.\nThe election in 2016 was not unique. Americans also rebuked the president in 2010, when Democrats lost 63 seats in the House \u2013 one of the worst pummelings in modern times -- and again in 2012, when Republicans took over the Senate. Voters also pushed back by electing an unprecedented number of GOP candidates in state legislatures and governors\u2019 mansions while Obama occupied the White House.\nWere those elections the work of lobbyists and other nefarious interests? No, those elections were a wake-up call that Obama and his party failed to heed. They were so busy slicing and dicing the population into groups that could be won over by targeted policies, they forgot to worry about the country overall.\nPresident Obama is angry that President Trump is getting credit for the booming economy; he figures he got the ball rolling. He is correct that his administration managed to stave off a depression but for years, even as voters listed jobs and the economy as their number one concerns, Obama\u2019s focus was elsewhere.\nNothing better highlights his misguided ambitions and priorities than the Paris Climate accord. Obama embraced that toothless celebration of global cooperation even though it would hobble the U.S. economy and its powerhouse energy industries while enabling the continued expansion of China, by far the world\u2019s biggest carbon emitter.\nSimilarly, Obama\u2019s enthusiasm for the Trans Pacific Partnership, a trade agreement judged by the World Bank as not beneficial to the U.S., reflected his appetite for legacy and indifference to putting America first, as President Trump might say.\nUnder President Trump, the economic expansion, already long in the tooth, has accelerated. There is no denying that his election ushered in an immediate surge in business optimism, which has kicked off a steady rise in capital investment, key to productivity and wage gains.\n\u201cNew York\u2019s economy is booming. Mayor Bloomberg brought tech to New York for the first time & in record time he created a high-end tech university on Roosevelt Island. Our economy is humming in fashion, finance, tech.\u201d \u2014 Liz Peek, The Hill",

Others cite the biblical admonition to assist the poor.\nSome say churches need to be involved in ministering to the needy in our communities. Others expect such safety nets to come from government.\nSadly, we have entered a period in our nation in which individuals have abdicated their responsibilities to larger institutions, whether churches, denominations, or government.\nThink about it. Many Christians think sharing the gospel is the job of pastors and missionaries. That caring for the poor and the sick is the job of government and corporations.\nWhat about you and me? What does the Lord require of us\u2014each one of us? Whose job is it to care for \u201cthe least of these\u201d?\nDid Jesus speak of governments or individuals when He said, \u201cFor I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me\u201d (Matthew 25:35 ESV)?\nDid Jesus speak of pastors or all Christians when He said, \u201cAnd this gospel of the kingdom will be proclaimed throughout the whole world as a testimony to all nations\u201d (Matthew 24:14 ESV)?\nDid the apostle John speak of institutions or individuals when he wrote, \u201cBut if anyone has the world\u2019s goods and sees his brother in need, yet closes his heart against him, how does God\u2019s love abide in him? Little children, let us not love in word or talk but in deed and in truth\u201d (I John 3:17-18 ESV)?\nWhat would happen if every Christian lived out the gospel message in practical ways, instead of shifting all responsibility to institutions? Of course, our society is structured in a way that requires many professional services at an institutional level. But that doesn\u2019t mean we can\u2019t still obey the call to live out our Christianity on an individual level.\nServe at a soup kitchen. Teach a class. Mentor children at an after-school program. Volunteer at a local hospital. Ask your restaurant server how you can pray for him/her, then do it as you say grace over your meal. Volunteer at your local crisis pregnancy center. Serve those who need the gospel to earn the right to share the gospel.\nIn short, as my pastor is fond of saying: \u201cDon\u2019t just go to church. Be the church!\u201d\nA Story of Four People\nI\u2019ll leave you with a story of four people. I wish I knew who originated this classic, because it\u2019s even more relevant now than when it first appeared.\nEverybody, Somebody, Anybody, And Nobody\nSomebody got angry about that because it was Everybody\u2019s job.\nEverybody thought that Anybody could do it, but Nobody realized that Everybody wouldn\u2019t do it.\nYes, the government has a God-given role to fulfill.\nYes, pastors and church leaders have a God-given role to fulfill.\nAnd yes, every individual Christian has a God-given role to fulfill: every Christian somebody needs to do what anybody can do, even though nobody wants to do it, so that everybody can see the reality of Christ in us, the hope of glory.\nWhose job is it? It\u2019s ours!\nI Fell Into the Teacher Trap\nTags: Ava Pennington, hope, one word, The Teacher Trap\nI ignored the warnings for months. The first was a quiet, almost imperceptible nudge. Then came stronger recognition. Finally, last fall, when asked for a prayer request, my answer reflected a growing awareness. But still, I pushed those warnings aside.\nFor those who teach or preach week in and week out, you\u2019re probably familiar with this trap. Even if you don\u2019t bear the title teacher, you are one. You teach by example. You teach by conversation. You teach your children. You teach your employees or coworkers.\nThe trap is real for all of us.\nThe teacher trap is the belief that the lessons and illustrations you identify as you study the Bible are for the benefit of others in your life.\nAnd, boy, did I ever fall for it.\nPreparation to teach a large women\u2019s Bible study every week requires certain routines. One of my regular practices involves identifying principles and illustrations related to the Bible passage I\u2019m teaching that week. I\u2019m always on the lookout for something in my own life or in the lives of others to reinforce the lesson.\nProblem is, that became my sole focus.\nClear principle on the need to live dependent on the Holy Spirit? Filed.\nGood illustration on the need to forgive? Noted.\nConcise principle describing the effect of serving others? Included.\nEffective illustration of the importance of a vibrant prayer life? Got it.\nI began to sense the problem last fall when a friend asked how she could pray for me. \u201cPray that I apply what I\u2019m studying before I try to teach it,\u201d I told her. I hadn\u2019t planned on saying that. The words slipped out before I had time to think. I realize now it was the Holy Spirit trying to get my attention.\nThe culmination came this past December, when I sought my new \u201cone word\u201d for 2017. If you\u2019re not familiar with the practice of one word for the new year, the concept is intended to replace new year\u2019s resolutions. In place of resolutions that often fail to survive through February, we prayerfully select one word to influence the way we live for the year.\nMy word in 2015 was release. In 2016, it was joy. In December of 2016, the Lord gave me the word hope for this new year. Despite multiple confirmations, I questioned the selection. I didn\u2019t see immediate application.\nThat\u2019s when I fell into the trap. After puzzling about it for a week or so, I concluded this was to be my word in 2017 to encourage others. To extend hope for those discouraged by their circumstances. To convey hope to those vulnerable to despair.\nThe teacher trap.\nJust a few days into January, I learned the reason for my word. My husband was diagnosed with cancer. During the past month we clung to hope as we navigated hospitalization, surgeries, tests, and more tests. We cling to hope today as we evaluate treatment protocols and weigh options. And we will cling to hope in the coming months as we do our part and trust the Lord for whatever results He chooses to allow.\nGod graciously prepared me for the new year with just the right word.\nAs I write this, I\u2019m again reminded of my prayer request last fall. \u201cPray that I apply what I\u2019m studying before I try to teach it.\u201d Today, even more than then, it is my heart cry\u2026first as a child of God and then as a teacher.\nMay it be the heart cry of every one of us who study and teach God\u2019s Word.\nWhat is your experience with the teacher trap?",

        "raw_content": "\u2190 September Hummingbirds\nBack In Sight \u2192\nOn the last day of summer, I followed the butterflies around the Butterfly Garden at Saylorville Lake. Hidden in a nearby tree, a red-eyed vireo searched for food. It was almost time for him to leave. He spends the summers in the tree tops here and the winters in South America.\nIn October, the park was bustling with the activity of migrating birds. A female yellow-rumped warbler flitted about in an oak tree in the garden. A Lincoln\u2019s sparrow hopped up onto a rock after foraging in the shadows of the fading flowers.\nA shy fox sparrow blended in with the dried flower stalks on the bank of Saylorville Lake. A flock of white-throated sparrows converged on the dried evening primrose flowers by the path. The bushes gave cover to the field sparrows and the Harris\u2019s sparrows.\nStorms, wind, and cold filled the first three weeks of November. Thanksgiving morning awoke to sunshine and relatively mild weather. I was surprised to find a common yellowthroat warbler in the dried flowers near the entrance to the woods. The summer range of the common yellowthroats extends up into northern Canada. She might have been a northern warbler late on her journey south.\nThe summer ranges of the field sparrows, the red-eyed vireos, and the common yellowthroat warblers include this area. The other birds featured today are only seen here during their fall and spring migrations.\nA female yellow-rumped warbler in the garden at Jester Park, Iowa, October 8, 2017\nA Lincoln\u2019s sparrow in the garden at Jester Park, Iowa, October 9, 2017.\nA white-crowned sparrow on a dried flower stalk near Saylorville Lake in Jester Park, Iowa, October 20, 2017.\nA fox sparrow on the bank of Saylorville Lake in Jester Park, Iowa, October 22, 2017.\nA white-throated sparrow on a dried flower stalk near Saylorville Lake in Jester Park, Iowa, October 22, 2017.\nA Harris\u2019s sparrow in the bushes near Saylorville Lake in Jester Park, Iowa, October 25, 2017.\nA Field Sparrow in the bushes near Saylorville Lake in Jester Park, Iowa, October 25, 2017.\nA white-crowned sparrow on the bramble near Saylorville Lake in Jester Park, Iowa, October 26, 2017.\nA Harris\u2019s sparrow on a dried flower stalk near Saylorville Lake in Jester Park, Iowa, October 31, 2017.\nA female common yellowthroat warbler near the entrance to the woods at Jester Park, Iowa, November 23, 2017.\nThis entry was posted in Nature and tagged birds, common yellowthroat warbler, field sparrow, fox sparrow, harris's sparrow, Iowa, Jester Park, lincoln's sparrow, red-eyed vireo, white-crowned sparrow, white-throated sparrow, yellow-rumped warbler. Bookmark the permalink.\n19 Responses to The Fall Travelers\nHey a new post! I like the pictures. I thought that you were going to tell us that the vireo was eating all the butterflies. That would stink for the butterflies.\nI think I like the fox sparrow picture the best. I wonder how the birds and butterflies always know exactly when it\u2019s time to leave for warmer places.\nAnd hopefully we can get the Canadian geese to go further south as well. \ud83d\ude42\nThanks for visiting and your kindness! I am happy you enjoyed the post. \ud83d\ude42\nThe butterflies are a bit big for the vireo. \ud83d\ude42 He is only 6 inches. I hadn\u2019t seen one before this one. They spend most of their time in the tree tops and with the leaves are hard to see. I was walking back to the car when I saw this one fly to a tree branch in view. He didn\u2019t stay very long. He was moving around looking for insects. He might have spent his summer further north. Like the barn swallows, they go all the way down to South America for the winter. The barn swallows leave here in early September. Until then, the summer air is filled with the sound of their chattering. \ud83d\ude42\nThe fox sparrows are very shy. They are large for a sparrow at 7 inches, but they keep well away. I heard them chirping in the dried plants at dawn and stood still until I found this one. They blended in well.\nI have looked for information about migration times before. I didn\u2019t find anything definitive. It does depend on the temperature and available food sources somewhat. I saw the yellow-rumped warblers in the park at about the same time last year. They were gone by the end of October. The migrating sparrows were gone by Thanksgiving. There was a three week stretch when I didn\u2019t visit due to the weather.\nI was very surprised to see the common yellowthroat on Thanksgiving. It has been cold enough that there are few bugs around. It seems the warblers can also eat seeds in the cold weather months. They winter down along the southern and western US coast and in Mexico. She has a long way to go yet!\nReally great pictures\u2026.the images are so crisp and clear. I especially like the white-crowned and white-throated sparrows.\nThanks for visiting and your kindness! I am happy you enjoyed the pictures. \ud83d\ude42\nFor a couple of weeks in October, the area around the path to the pond which is by the lake was filled with very busy birds! There were enough of them that I found a few posing where I could see them. Most of the time, they managed to hide in the branches and dried plant stems. They were in constant motion. I couldn\u2019t blame them. I wasn\u2019t the only one watching them. There was a hawk or two perched in the trees and a smaller hawk that flew over on one of the days.\nI love looking at the intricacies of the patterns of the bird\u2019s feathers. \ud83d\ude42\nThe northern edge of the winter range for the white-crowned sparrow, the white-throated sparrow and the fox sparrow is just south of here. On the map, it looks like it might even include this area. It is hard to tell. I haven\u2019t seen any of them in the winter, though, at the park or near my apartment. I have only every seen them in the spring and the fall.\nYes, I enjoy the intricacies of the feather patterns, too. Just as I would look at one picture/bird and think that was my favorite \u201coutfit,\u201d then I\u2019d see the next picture and start thinking the same thing. \ud83d\ude42\nThanks for visiting and your kindness! I am happy you liked the photos. \ud83d\ude42 The birds were being kind and let me be in their world for a little while. I knew from the last two years that they like the spot by the lake so I was keeping an eye on it. I think it must have a \u201crest stop\u201d symbol on their travel map. \ud83d\ude42\nThey have the sweetest little faces! I love your pictures!\nThanks for visiting and your kindness! I am happy you enjoyed the pictures. \ud83d\ude42 The birds do have very endearing faces, expressions, and mannerisms. I have noticed that there is a certain sparrow way of being \u2013 a jaunty tilting of the head in inquiry. \ud83d\ude42\nI imagine this season has passed now and the migration has moved on. But what a fantastic time of year it is when you walk through a park or tree-lined area and find what we often call \u201ca bird party.\u201d Great descriptions, bird ID, and fantastic photos, Sarah.\nThanks for visiting and your kindness! I am happy you enjoyed seeing the travelers. \ud83d\ude42\nYes. The party has moved on. \ud83d\ude42 It was fun while it lasted!\nMy app doesn\u2019t seem to be working well but am impressed by how you capture their characters. The yellowthroat is striking as here we have the whitethroats that migrate to us from the south of Africa. You really know your birds.\nThanks for visiting and your kindness! I am happy you liked seeing the birds. \ud83d\ude42 I have learned a lot about birds since I started taking photos. There are still more in this area that I haven\u2019t seen yet. It is fun when the birds migrate through. They travel in large groups then and are easier to spot then during the summer when they are spread out.\nYes, amazing how they flock together and meet up!\ntravelersblock says:\nAmazing shots! I totally love it.\nThanks for visiting and your kindness! I am happy you liked pictures. \ud83d\ude42\nSuper fantastic images. Your walks are spectacular\nThanks for visiting and your kindness! I am happy you enjoyed coming along with me on my walk. \ud83d\ude42 It looks very different outside right now. We are having some of your cold Canadian weather plus falling snow. \ud83d\ude42 I went to the park next door this afternoon with bird seed and I didn\u2019t find any birds. They must have been hiding out of the cold. I left the bird seed where I have seen them before and will go back tomorrow to see if there are any little tracks. \ud83d\ude42",

        "raw_content": "Home Internet Google Fortune-Telling: Worth It?\nGoogle Fortune-Telling: Worth It?\nArfa Mukhtar\nSo very recently, Google Inc. launched a new initiative namely \u201cGoogle Fortune-telling.\u201d A lot of people actually know about it by now, but if you don\u2019t, then I think you should.\nIt a lot sounds like a fortune-teller that will allow you to learn about your future prospects, however, that\u2019s how Google played with us and quite very well.\nSo I am dropping this link for you, so you can also predict your future just like I did: http://betagoogle.com/.\nYou are curious now, aren\u2019t you? That\u2019s how I was when I got to learn about it. Now let me break it for you, it won\u2019t predict your future, because nobody can do that, not even this world\u2019s most used search-engine, but I promise it will educate you.\nOnce you press the \u201cPredict my future\u201d button, it will allow you to broaden your horizons and empathize for those refugees who won\u2019t have a clue about their future at all. It further states, there are around 60 million refugees that have no idea what their future lies. Then how can we predict a future for you?\nThis was smart approach launched by Google in order to create awareness about the way you can donate to these refugees. Even if you can\u2019t pay some cash, I urge you to donate some love by sharing the initiative.\nAlso, it provides some authentic links to local initiatives and charitable organizations you send your payments to. Then, what are you waiting for? I believe Google made it quite easy for people who wants to donate, yet don\u2019t know any reliable organizations.\nYou know, there is one thing I know about Pakistanis that they are very humanitarian by heart. We love to help the people in need, and none other than, Edhi Sahab is our biggest role model. Before you wonder more, go to the Google-fortune telling link I provided and DONATE YOUR TIME, MONEY OR LOVE TO THESE REFUGEES!\nThis is the only way we can keep up with the Edhi legacy.\nPrevious articleBest Business Ideas You Can Start Even Tomorrow While having Job\nNext articleTonite With HSY Season Four Coming on Hum TV",

        "raw_content": "\u2190 Author Enters Rehab For Fractal Addiction\nFlowsnake \u2192\nJack of all Trades vs. Renaissance Man\nGot into an interesting conversation with Mr. Buckley this weekend, which is oft to happen whenever we occupy the same space, about how we spend our time and interests.\nI\u2019ve focused my writing to a couple of goals: non-fiction books about math and other areas of expertise, and fiction mysteries and science-fiction. At the moment that means I\u2019m working on 2-3 books, and this blog. There are many other projects I\u2019d like to work on: designing a video game, getting old games to work on new systems and playing them, even singing again in a choir. But I\u2019ve chosen to focus on a few key things that matter so I can give them my full attention, and give attention to non-project based things in my life: work, family, friends, and God.\nFinding new projects is never that hard for me. It\u2019s just a natural extension of the work I\u2019m already doing. In fact this blog, and life the last few years has gotten me to think of everything in my life in terms of a blog post to write, a book to research and write about, or a new project. I have to make a deliberate effort sometimes just to do something with no thought of the broader project.\nBrian works just as tirelessly on the things he cares about but he also opens himself up to new possibilities more often than me. The way he describes it is that he\u2019ll often be passionately interested in something for a few weeks, then drop it. Maybe 90% of time he drops a project, and keeps going with the remaining 10%. And it can be a little difficult to tell from the outset if it\u2019s going to be one kind of project or another.\nThis process by its very nature makes Brian a well-rounded person. I love going book shopping with him, in part because we have a little fun with the stranger titles in the clearance section, and because he\u2019s willing to stay in the store much longer than your average person. But it\u2019s always mildly embarrassing when he walks out of the store with a stack of classic literature, scientific research, and philosophical thought, and I\u2019m walking out with comic books and DVD\u2019s. I do buy lots of heady books for research (mostly online), but I\u2019ll admit I don\u2019t make much time for classics like Paradise Lost, or even more fun fare like Alice in Wonderland. And I don\u2019t research random topics of interest, I tend to stay focused on the areas of math or pop-culture that I\u2019ve always loved.\nI\u2019m torn between seeing certain things as distractions, or as ways to make me a more thoughtful person. I know that topics outside of my current fields of study and writing may give me insight into my work, and that it isn\u2019t good to be so far down into the cave that you can no longer see daylight. But at the same time, I gain great relief from being the kind of person who says \u201cI don\u2019t have time for this, I probably won\u2019t enjoy it, and I don\u2019t have to read it just because its old.\u201d\nI think it\u2019s good to examine life and the things you\u2019re doing on a regular basis. Not Agile stand-up meeting regular, but maybe quarterly reviews. And it\u2019s good to have friends to talk to about these things who come at them from a different angle. Adjustments can always be made. Maybe it would be good to give myself three weeks to make a game sometime. I don\u2019t gave to do the whole thing, or even do it for the reason of selling it, but just for the sheer enjoyment. Because life is not all about work and the things you can make.\nFiled under Faith + Life, Writing Goals\nTagged as Focus, Friendship, Life, Work, Writing\n2 responses to \u201cJack of all Trades vs. Renaissance Man\u201d\nSpeaking as someone who has trouble staying focused, I think being able to focus your efforts is better. I\u2019m the sort who goes to the book store, buys every classic work of interest, as well as a few more random obscure ones, and then looks around years later thinking \u201cI never did get around to becoming an expert on that, did I?\u201d\nIn my experience, people who can focus on a few things and accomplish them seem to be happier.\n\u201cI\u2019m torn between seeing certain things as distractions, or as ways to make me a more thoughtful person.\u201d\nThis could be the title of my autobiography.",

        "raw_content": "\u2190 Men are from Mars, Women are Crazy\nTable for One \u2192\nWhy is dreaming big so frowned upon? When a child announces that he\u2019s going to be a dancer, his parents and teachers hope he\u2019ll grow out of it. Why is it more acceptable to say you want to be a doctor or a teacher, rather than a playwright or a photographer?\nSimple. It\u2019s because the people who care about you want to protect you from disappointment and hardship. Because your talent, no matter how much you and your loved ones appreciate it, might not be to everyone\u2019s taste. Because so few people blessed / cursed with creativity \u201cmake it\u201d. Because \u201cstruggling\u201d is the most common adjective to describe \u201cartist\u201d or \u201cactor\u201d or \u201cwriter\u201d. Because they want you to be safe and get a \u201creal\u201d job \u2013 one that comes with a company car and a pension. So, you\u2019re advised to just be realistic.\nBut what\u2019s realistic is acknowledging your gifts and doing something with them. What\u2019s realistic is at least giving it a shot. What\u2019s realistic is wanting to live a happy life doing something you\u2019re passionate about.\nOf course, it\u2019s easier to live a normal life. Sharing your creativity means baring your soul. It means lifting the comfortable veil that most of us wear. There can be no secrets when you allow others to glimpse the depths of your emotion, the shades of your pain, the hidden creases of your heart, and the crevices of your imagination.\nSadly, many people don\u2019t even try to pursue their passion. They know they\u2019ve got something special but they\u2019ve given up on it before they\u2019ve even started. Or they\u2019ve never had the time or space to explore their creativity. There are too many bored secretaries, frustrated sales reps and depressed accountants. Don\u2019t get me wrong, I\u2019m not condemning these occupations. Creativity manifests in many forms. I\u2019d just hope that if you work at one of these professions, it\u2019s because order or commerce or numbers are your passion. And if not, that you\u2019d at least humour your creative side on the weekends.\nWithout dreamers, the world would be a very dull place. We would never have even heard of music, poetry, theatre or literature. If nobody took a chance on their dreams, there would be no Harry Potter or Bilbo Baggins, Dracula or Holly Golightly. We wouldn\u2019t be able to talk on the phone or fly to another continent. Andrea Bocelli would be just another blind Italian. And we wouldn\u2019t have the likes of this.\nStarry Night - Vincent van Gogh\nFeatured Image: Painting by Georgia O\u2019Keeffe \u2013 http://www.artchive.com/artchive/O/okeefe.html\nOther Images: http://www.flickr.com/photos/amandamabel/5597604359/;\nhttp://www.arthistoryguide.com/Vincent_van_Gogh.aspx\nThis entry was posted in Modern Society and tagged actor, andrea bocelli, art, artist, belief, bilbo baggins, blind, career, child, company car, creativity, dance, dance of the sugar plum fairy, doctor, dracula, dreams, emotion, fight, georgia o'keeffe, harry potter, heart, holly golightly, imagination, italian, job, led zeppelin, money, music, occupation, pain, painting, parent, passion, pension, playwright, poetry, poverty, profession, salary, self-belief, singer, soul, stairway to heaven, starry night, struggles, success, tchaikovsky, teacher, theatre, vincent van gogh, writer.

        "raw_content": "Scientists are simulating Mars in one of the most inhospitable places on Earth\nMars might be the next place humans visit but it\u2019s not exactly the kind of place you\u2019d want to hang out just for fun. It\u2019s dusty, dry, and while we know there\u2019s at least some water frozen near its poles and potentially more underground, being stranded there would end your life quite quickly. As it turns out, there are a few corners of our very own Earth that are just as desolate as the red planet, and scientists are now using one of those locations to test gadgets and other hardware that space travelers might use during a manned Mars mission.\nResearchers have chosen southern Oman as their Mars testbed, using the desert bordering Saudi Arabia as a fake Martian landscape. There, scientists go to great lengths to mimic what it might be like for an astronaut working on the surface of Mars, right down to simulated communications delays as the signals travel from the red planet to Earth and back.\nThe \u201cfake\u201d astronauts live in inflatable crew quarters and have little to no contact with the outside world. They must wear space suits when walking around outside, and because this is supposed to be another planet, safety is priority number one. They get around on foot or ATVs, and they conduct research in the same way that actual Mars travelers might.\nThe entire experiment is designed to last for a month, at which point the astronauts will return to civilization. In the meantime they\u2019ll toy with mapping tools, test robotic rovers, and put the latest in spacesuit technology to the ultimate test. They have enough food to make it through, but the crew is also testing the ability to grow plants in a portable greenhouse which will be crucial for long-term stays on the red planet.\nIt might seem extreme to isolate scientists in the desert for a full month, but the first Mars visitors will experience something much more intense. It will take between six and nine months to make it to Mars from Earth, which means the crew will be living aboard a spacecraft for entirety of that time. Once they arrive, it\u2019s unclear how long they might stay, but it\u2019s not out of the realm of possibility that they might remain there for several months before catching their return flight.\nImage Source: Pedronet\nTags: Mars, NASA, Space\nScientists create \u2018super wood\u2019 that is stronger and lighter than steel",

        "title": "How does the Beast of Revelation 13 relate to the Sabbath? - BibleAsk",
        "raw_content": "Home From Catholics What does the Beast of Revelation 13 have to do with the Sabbath?\nWhat does the Beast of Revelation 13 have to do with the Sabbath?\nIn the book of Revelation, Jesus Christ warned that eventually \u201call the world\u201d will wonder after the beast and worship him (Revelation 13:3,4). \u201cThen another angel, a third one, followed them, saying with a loud voice, \u201cIf anyone worships the beast and his image, and receives a mark on his forehead or on his hand\u201d (Revelation 14:9).\nTo avoid worshiping \u201cthe beast,\u201d Revelation specifically says we should \u201cworship Him that made heaven and earth, the sea, and the fountain of waters\u201d (Rev. 14:7). Thus, one group worships the beast (Rev. 14:9), while the other group worships the Creator (Rev. 14:7).\nAdditionally, those who worship the Creator have another key characteristic: They \u201ckeep the commandments of God and have the faith of Jesus\u201d (Rev. 14:12). If we read the Ten Commandments (Ex. 20), there is only one commandment about worshiping the Creator. It is the Sabbath commandment which states, \u201cFor in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and He rested on the seventh day\u201d (Ex. 20:11). By comparing Rev. 14:7 with Ex. 20:11, it is clear that Rev. 14:7 is quoting from the Sabbath commandment and refocusing on its importance.\nBut the prophet Daniel predicted clearly that the beast would change God\u2019s Holy law, as it \u201cwill intend to make alterations in times and in law\u201d (Daniel 7:25). When we look at the Ten Commandments, we discover that there is only one commandment about \u201ctime,\u201d \u2013 the Sabbath commandment. All Protestant Reformers of the 16th century identified the Roman Catholic Church as the \u201clittle horn\u201d and \u201cthe beast.\u201d Significantly, the Roman Church boasts that it changed the Sabbath into Sunday, which fits the prophecy of Daniel 7:25 exactly.\nTherefore, this religious system that would change God\u2019s law is the Antichrist of Revelation. The Papacy has openly admitted to changing God\u2019s law (specifically the fourth commandment). And they have changed the observance of the seventh day Sabbath to the first day of the week.\nThus, we see that Jesus Christ, who originally gave \u201cThe Revelation\u201d to John on the Sabbath day (Revelation 1:10) has also revealed in Revelation\u2019s prophecies His invitation to us to return to the Sabbath commandment to avoid following the beast.",

Lomax deposited the song in the Library of Congress and included it in the 1941 collection Our singing country.\nIn short order, Woody Guthrie, Pete Seeger, Lead Belly, and Josh White learned the song and each recorded it. From there it began to move to the planet\u2019s farthest corners. Today, hundreds of artists have recorded House of the Rising Sun, and it can be heard in the most diverse of places\u2014Chinese karaoke bars, Gatorade ads, and as a ring tone on cell phones.

        "title": "How To Use Stories To Crush Objections Once And For All",
        "raw_content": "The Barrier To The Sale\nWhat is the number one obstacle that stops your clients committing to a sale?\nThese obstacles that stop your sale from going through are called objections. With any challenge, objections can be overcome and conquered. All it takes it training your self on how to best combat these objections and overcome them and then practicing.\nLearning to identify exactly what the objection is and the cause for this objection is crucial in conquering and overcoming it.\nThe Worst Objection (the one they don\u2019t tell you)\nThe worst objection that anyone can possibly get is the one that the prospect didn\u2019t tell you about.\nIt is the one that they had but didn\u2019t bring up.\nThe one that you didn\u2019t know about or even have the opportunity to overcome.\nThis happens because you did not build a valuable relationship with that potential client. There was no connection and they did not trust you enough to reveal any objections that they may have had. This means that you will never be in a position to provide them with a solution.\nThe importance of creating a connection with your client is paramount. It is the foundation you need to establish trust and move forward in the sales process.\nWe are using storytelling as a method of building trust, identifying objections and then crushing them!\nStorytelling is how we have been connecting with each other since the beginning of time. The only thing that has changed is the way that we communicate those stories and how we use them. Today storytelling is used in most forms of media but very rarely are people using it as an asset in their businesses.\nStorytelling is the starting point of common ground. Its how we get past the \u2018first impression\u2019 stage and onto forming a relationship. It helps to set the foundation of the friendship and allows for trust to start building between you and the prospect.\nFor example, the other day I was with a potential client and I knew she had objections but I couldn\u2019t relate to her enough to establish a connection that would allow her to open up and tell me her objections. I could not get past the barrier of unfamiliarity and distrust.\nWhat I should have done is use storytelling to break down those barriers. I should have told her stories of past clients that were in a similar position to her.\nI could have shown her case study videos of how clients like her have overcome the challenges that she was going through. I guarantee that it would have made a huge difference to the outcome of that meeting. I know that she would have been comfortable enough to share any objections that she would have had.\nOvercoming Objections With Story\nOnce you have built up enough trust between you and your prospect and have identified any objections that they may have, its time to crush them. Using storytelling is a great way to do this.\nWhen you tell a story, you put the prospect in the shoes of the main character. The prospect will relate to the character in the story and recognize that they are in the same or a similar position. The story takes them on a journey through the problem and shows them that it is possible to overcome their issue using your business.\nWhen the prospect sees how the character has overcome their issue and what they have been able to achieve because of that, it shows what is possible. It creates hope and shows them what they can achieve if they overcome this problem.\nStorytelling Is An Asset\nStorytelling breaks down the barrier of unfamiliarity and the fear of the unknown and brings clarity to the prospect. It shows them what steps they need to take to achieve the goals that they desire.\nUse storytelling in everything you do and you\u2019ll start to form stronger connections and long-lasting relationships with your clients.\nThis is a valuable tool to add to your arsenal and one that should never be overlooked and passed over.",

        "raw_content": "Book Review: The Culture Map\nIn June, I attended the international board meeting for Nurses Christian Fellowship International in Taipei, Taiwan. The president, Tove Giske, gave a presentation on the Culture Map. You see, our board is made up of 20 people from 6 regions of world, representing 18 different countries. Thus, \u201cdecoding how people, think, lead and get things done across the cultures\u201d is important to the work of the organization. Since, I work and live in area convergence of cultures, I knew I had to get the book and learn more of how to work cross-culturally.\nThe book reveals a framework or map decoding how various cultures communicate, evaluate, schedule, persuade, decide, disagree, and others. I will give an example. According to the Culture Map, the US culture views scheduling as a tight, linear, reference point. I can personally attest to this, for if I am not at least 5 minutes early, I am late, and I see efficiency in personal and business life as being \u201con-time\u201d and \u201cproductive\u201d. What the culture map points out, is on the other end of the scale for scheduling is \u201cflexible time\u201d. As I looked at the map, on the \u201cflexible time\u201d is China, which reminded me of a nerve-wracking, yet cultural-revealing incident. When in Taiwan, I was scheduled to be picked up for my airport transfer at 5:00. After multiple texts and an 1 1/2 hour later my escort showed up; and we nonchalantly left about 30 minutes after her arrival. I have to be honest and say, even with the delay, I was quite a few hours before my departure time. So there was no risk of missing the flight.\nMy escorted had came late for she had wanted to ride with me to the airport and continue to build on the \u201ctrusting\u201d relationship we had forged during my stay. Something, I would not have thought of. Why? According to the culture map, China and the US are once again on opposite extremes on how we build trust in business relationships.\nThe Culture Map by Erin Meyer is a must read for anyone who interacts cross-culturally, even if it is in your own home town.\ndetails with wonderful stories of how vari\ncultural competencyprofessional development\n2 thoughts on \u201cBook Review: The Culture Map\u201d\nCarrie, This is a great synopsis! I will love to read this book!\nThanks Debbie, I hope you like the book.",

        "title": "Collaboration hacks to improve the performance of your sales teams",
        "raw_content": "Collaboration hacks to improve the performance of your sales teams\nCollaboration and communication are the cornerstone of any high-performance sales team. As salespeople spend most of their time with prospects instead of their colleagues, it\u2019s crucial for businesses to encourage a collaboration culture to gain the most out of individual efforts.\nCollaboration promotes teamwork and great results on sales teams. Through collaboration efforts, team members have access to best practices, enabling them to learn from previous successes and failures, which increases efficiency. And the results speak for themselves: sixty percent of salespeople say collaborative selling increased their productivity by over 25 percent.\nIn today\u2019s technological era, collaboration is usually seen as something that can only be achieved through the use of technology. However, there are many collaboration hacks that do not require any program/tool and yet can have a major impact on the performance of a sales team. At CPM we have listed some suggestions to embrace collaboration within your teams:\nTeam territories:\nCreating team territories not only sparks collaboration between team members, but also ensures that each person has a role to play in the winning strategy of the business. Likewise, it also guarantees that each person is doing their share of work. Studies show that effective territory management can increase overall sales, improve customer coverage, and reduce costs.\nShare your successes:\nSuccesses shouldn\u2019t only be celebrated but they also should be documented and shared with the wider team. Something as simple as having a process in place to communicate and capture the main drivers of a particular success, can have a significant impact on the performance of a sales team. Often times big successes are celebrated and then forgotten about. It\u2019s very important to document and share the wins that salespeople are achieving, as well as the process and strategy defined behind the winning of a deal.\nThere is never enough coaching when we talk about sales teams. A great way to leverage collaboration is to host sessions where best practices and the corresponding results are shared, as well as to discuss possible difficulties that the team might be facing. Through coaching sessions, managers can target several pain points across the sales reps and identify the best solution for these inconveniences.\nAt CPM, Ireland\u2019s leading partner for outsourced Field Sales solutions, we have a vast experience managing high performance sales teams with a strong collaboration culture. We have +30 years\u2019 experience in Ireland and +80 years in the industry which is unmatched by any other field marketing company in the country.

        "title": "Half-term flights up to nine times more expensive - FairFX Blog",
        "raw_content": "Half term may seem like the perfect time for a family holiday, but our latest research has revealed that it\u2019s actually one of the most expensive times for families to go away.\nComparing 120 return flights from eight airports across the UK, we found that holidaying during half term costs an average of NINE times more than the same flight earlier in the month.\nIt isn\u2019t just half-term flights that receive a price hike though. Travel industry advice usually dictates that it\u2019s a good idea to book a package deal in order to get more for your money, but these package holidays see similar price hikes.\nAn all-inclusive break in Barbados with Virgin Holidays, for two adults and two children, costs \u00a32,919 in early February. But the price soars to \u00a39,914 for the week beginning February 13, when most British schools break up for half term.\nFlight price hikes found by FairFX:\nHere\u2019s a highlight of some of the dramatic price rises we have seen for half-term flights.\nEast Midlands \u2013 Venice: A return flight departing during half term is over nine times (844%) more expensive (\u00a3406) than travelling just two weeks later (\u00a343)\nNewcastle \u2013 Dublin: A city break in half term comes in as more than six times higher (568%). A half-term return flight costs \u00a3127 compared to \u00a319 just two weeks earlier.\nEdinburgh \u2013 New York: A big apple break will cost 558% more in half term \u2013 an eye-watering \u00a32,310 compared to \u00a3351 just one week earlier.\nLondon Gatwick \u2013 Tenerife: A spot of winter sun will cost nearly seven times higher (581%) in half term at \u00a3293 for a return flight compared to just \u00a342 two weeks later.\nThese price hikes seem grossly unfair for any time of year but when the government are telling parents that it\u2019s illegal to take their children out of school during term time, it\u2019s pressuring parents into a very difficult catch-22.\nPackage holiday price hikes found by FairFX:\nHere is a sample of price increases for package holidays.\nBarbados: A package holiday, with London flights and accommodation for two adults and two children, would cost just over \u00a32,919 in early February. But just one week later, when half term hits, the cost is an astonishing \u00a39,914 \u2013 an uplift of 240%.\nFamily skiing: A week\u2019s package ski holiday for a family of four in La Clusaz will set you back \u00a36,100 in half term \u2013 but the previous week the same holiday is \u00a32,420 (153% more).\nAlgarve: A visit to Albufeira during half term for a family of four clocks in at \u00a31,200 \u2013 203% more than the previous week (\u00a3397).\nCanaries: A spot of winter sun in Fuerteventura jumps by 84% with one tour operator (from \u00a31,844 to \u00a33,393) and 80% with another operator to a kids resort (from \u00a31,170 to \u00a32,102) just for travelling during half term.\nThese findings come as a landmark ruling on the validity of the Government\u2019s policy to fine parents who take their children out of school during term time, is soon expected from the Supreme Court.\nOn January 31st 2017, father Jon Platt when to court for the third time after refusing to pay a fine for taking his daughter out of school for a holiday to Disneyland in 2015. The case has been adjourned for the judges to consider their decision.\nThis ruling has been long awaited but, ultimately, the fault lies with the industry. A major shake-up is needed to support parents in making the right education decisions for their child without depriving them of the opportunity to see the world and learn through travel. Currently the travel industry is holding parents to ransom, and this must change.\nDealing with escalating costs\nWhen it comes to planning your holidays this year, it has never been more important for families to be aware of the ways they can make their budget stretch further.\nBeing strategic with spending money is one way to do this, and arranging your currency in advance will mean you never pay more than you need to. There are also ways to take your money further with accommodation, flights and dining at your destination; comparing the cost of these rather than defaulting to a package holiday is always a good place to start.\nFollow our tips on planning your holidays like a pro and your money will travel much further this year. Even if flight prices do rise around school holidays, you and your family can still experience more with some smart planning.\nTop Southern European city breaks this summer",

After bringing \u201cMy P.Y.T.\u201d to the Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon on Wednesday night, Wale served up some more summertime vibes on Friday (June 17) with his Summer on Sunset mixtape.\nThe DMV rapper announced the \u2018tape on Instagram with a trailer featuring his Album About Nothing muse, Jerry Seinfeld. \u201cI heard you\u2019re moving out to L.A. to clear your head,\u201d the actor says. \u201cOh, my God. There\u2019s very little clear head out there. L.A.\u2019s fun. A lot of people out there work hard, but the people that aren\u2019t working are partying even harder so stay cool and be yourself. Don\u2019t ever change.\u201d The clip also features cameos from Drake and Mike Will Made-It.\nThe 17-track set was inspired by last summer in L.A. and is filled with references to the City of Angels, starting with the Raheem DeVaughn-assisted intro (\u201cLAX\u201d). From there, Folarin delivers other tracks that carry this theme though, like \u201cPaparazzi,\u201d \u201cDay by the Pool,\u201d and \u201cWomen of Los Angeles.\u201d\nThat spills over into some of the guests, as Wale enlists West Coast legends Tha Dogg Pound for \u201cGangsta Boogie.\u201d Other collaborators include Ty Dolla $ign, Cam\u2019ron, DJ Mustard, Eric Bellinger, and iconic wrestling announcer Jim Ross (\u201cSmackdown/Raw\u201d).\nAdditionally, Jerry Seinfeld, Amy Schumer, Mark Wahlberg, Jeremy Scott, Eva Marcille, Justine Skye, and Triple H fill out Wale\u2019s Hollywood adventure.\nSoS, which premiered on DJ Khaled\u2019s We the Best Radio, is a precursor to the MMG spitter\u2019s upcoming fifth album SHINE (Still Here Ignoring Negative Energy), due this fall. Folarin acted as the Snapchat King\u2019s co-host and guest, delivering the project that was teased by Seinfeld in a trailer just this week.\nSummer on Sunset precedes Wale\u2019s forthcoming album S.H.I.N.E.

This French word is used throughout the world\u2019s vineyards to describe the color change of red wine grapes, as they transition each summer from green to purplish-red. During this time, sugars begin to rise in the berries, and acids begin to decrease. Photos were taken between July 18 and August 3, 2017. You\u2019ll notice that Malbec grapes began veraison in mid-July; Merlot progressed at the same rate, and Cabernet Sauvignon veraison was still in progress, as it is one of the later-ripening red wine grapes.

        "raw_content": "Users vs. Companies: Conflicts over the Real-Time Web?\nIf 2009 was the year of real-time Web, with practically every major service finding ways to bring content to its users instantly, 2010 is about optimizing the new real-time world, expanding interoperability between sites, finding more ways for users' content to be discovered, and taking the potential of real-time out of the status world and into the real world. Today, at the South by Southwest Interactive event in Austin, Texas, one panel asked if we were making serious progress in this vision, and if companies, feeling increased competitive pressures, are short-changing users in the process.\nMarshall Kirkpatrick of ReadWriteWeb, who moderated the panel, featuring representatives from Collecta, Google, Gowalla and Microsoft, said \"the real-time Web is a big, complex and multi-headed beast,\" adding, \"almost as many people you talk to on the subject will give a different perspective.\"\nFor most, the real-time Web represents reducing latency from the time updates are published and when they are experienced practically to zero. This can be anything from updates from blogs to downstream aggregators and RSS feed readers, status updates from social networks to other points in the ecosystem, or instant alerts from the Web at large that a saved search you requested has found a positive match.\nBut one of the existing problems with the real-time Web that has occurred is that despite the focus by many services to solve the same problem, many have done so without delivering true data interoperability - and other services are trying to solve for real-time without having full access to users' public data.\n\"Back in the day, you couldn't send e-mail from AOL to Compuserve, and today, you can't send data from Google Buzz to Facebook,\" said Brett Slatkin of Google's App Engine team, and co-author of Pubsubhubbub. \"Part of what we are trying to work on is breaking down these barriers that connect to different sites. If I am on Buzz and Marshall is on Identica and Jack is on Twitter, we should all be able to communicate.\"\nStandards have evolved in the real-time Web space, from OAuth to PubSububbub, WebFinger and Salmon (as documented here), but that's not to say there aren't still heated debates over these standards, or even which version of standards should be supported. (See this article for a discussion of OAuth 2.0)\n\"I try to be a practical person, and when I hear about a family of specifications, it sounds like a family of work,\" said Dare Obasanjo of Microsoft. \"There is clearly a place where we have a common pain that we can work on. There is a bunch of shared pain, and the way you have to get real-time service is to work on APIs, and that is a clear starting point for standards. Pubsubhubbub can help solve that problem, but I get concerned when you have to implement certain specs to solve that problem.\"\n\"These specifications we agree on should be useful on their own,\" answered Slatkin. \"When you implement a specification like HTML, you are not buying into an ideology.\"\nAs the real-time Web's protocols are debated and deployed, so too does the application of these services. Google Buzz and Facebook have received scrutiny for their aggressiveness in converting assumed private data to public, and Netflix recently canceled an algorithm development contest thanks to concerns of assumed privacy violations.\n\"When talking about privacy, right now, unfortunately, the social networking market is failing, and they have little incentive to encourage user privacy,\" said Obasanjo. \"I am waiting to see when people find what they thought were private updates as part of trending topics on Google and Bing. Users and companies are in conflict.\"\nObasanjo gave the example of Twitter needing its users to be public in order to drive value into the system. After all, if users were all private, there would be no trending topics, and thus it is Twitter's best interests for updates to be public. \"There is a factor that if a user wants to be private, it subtracts value from the system,\" he said.\nBeyond these concerns, known benefits of the real-time Web are scratching the surface of what could be done with more expanded to real-time data from other sources, it was argued. Slatkin forecast a time where you could query supply chains for inventory and purchase locally instead of from Amazon.com, turning economies of scale on their head. Scott Raymond of Gowalla talked about intersecting real-time Web technologies with geodata to show trending locations and the hot parties of the moment, by decaying the relevance of checkins over time. Jack Moffitt, CTO of Collecta, said a development environment for new tools and applications that leveraged zero latency was becoming \"very interesting\".\n\"All these guys are working on realizing the potential right now, working on real-time data,\" Kirkpatrick said. \"Brett Slatkin said it was important people focus on the unforseen future that systems we worked on to support undiscovered use cases - things are going to get real crazy real soon.\"\nWeb-wide adoption of RSS and Atom standards has eliminated the problem of publishers providing their data, and tools like Pubsubhubbub are working to get data from one site to another faster. \"Polling doesn't scale and you need a push notification to deliver it. It's possible we will have multiple winners, and we have to consider privacy considerations that people won't want their data available to everyone,\" said Moffitt.\nThe element of real-time is being layered across the Web, and it seems to be happening even if developers aren't completely in agreement over the tools needed to optimize the experience or if the debates on privacy versus public data are solved. And there's a lot of room for real-time to grow outside of the statusphere and to more traditional markets. The question is can developers provide solutions that don't have users running to the FCC?\nLabels: API, Collecta, Google, Gowalla, Microsoft, Realtime, RWW, SXSW, Technology",

        "title": "User-Generated Content Concerns for Promotional Offerings - The Intellectual Property Blog",
        "raw_content": "Posted on March 31, 2017 May 5, 2017 By Karl Rutledge\nUser-Generated Content Concerns for Promotional Offerings\nIncorporating user-generated content (e.g., video and photo contests) into a promotion can be an effective way to not only build brand awareness but also develop ties with potential customers. However, use of user-generated content can be risky. In particular, requiring participants to post photos or videos and share such content could not only potentially tarnish the company\u2019s brand but also presents liability risks. Instituting proper safeguards are therefore essential.\nAt a minimum, a company should include in its official rules provisions identifying that to be eligible for consideration in the promotion a user-generated entry may NOT contain, as determined by the company at its sole discretion, any content that is obscene, hateful, promotes illegal activities, defames or misrepresents another, is threatening, depicts dangerous or harmful acts, disturbs the peace or that communicates messages or images inconsistent with the positive images and/or goodwill to which the company wishes to associate.\nThe next safeguard is screening of such postings. In particular, a policy of ongoing monitoring and review of published content helps to ensure that any postings that violate the company\u2019s rules or that of a third-party social media provider are timely removed. While more costly and difficult to implement, to provide even more quality control, a company may consider screening user-generated content before it is posted. Then, if any issues are identified while screening the content, the company could proactively address each issue prior to them being posted. Regardless of the review structure implemented, the company should specify that such review does not relieve potential entrants from responsibility to comply with the rules.\nAnother potential pitfall relates to entrants posting false or misleading claims about competitors as a result of a company\u2019s user-generated promotion. For example, in a lawsuit between Subway and Quiznos, Quiznos sponsored a contest in which entrants submitted videos comparing sandwiches from the two chains. Quiznos posted some user-generated videos as examples and was sued by Subway for false and misleading advertising under the Lanham Act. The case settled out of court after Quiznos\u2019 motion to dismiss based on the immunity for user-generated content publication was denied by the court.\nIt is imperative that a company understand that it can lose its immunity under the Communications Decency Act, if it is responsible for generating the content. To prevent destruction of immunity, a company should take caution against inviting entrants to submit material showing why their brand is better than another brand, naming the promotion in a way that is derogatory toward the other company, and once entries are submitted, a company should screen for false claims about competitors.[i]\nOfficial rules for promotions utilizing user-generated content should also include representations and warranties to prevent liability exposure due to privacy, publicity, security, and intellectual property issues. Even when the user gives permission, the risk of infringing rights of third parties still exists. For example, the photographer who took the picture, or the musician who provided background music for a video have rights to the content. Companies should therefore be aware that the user may not be the only person with rights to the content, and require entrants to represent submissions are their original work and do not violate laws or infringe the rights of third parties; an indemnification provision is also advised. Best practices also dictate a prominently featured \u201creport abuse\u201d functionality and established Digital Millennium Copyright Act procedures and policies.\nFinally, user-generated content submissions may be considered endorsements so submissions should be accompanied by a disclosure of the promotion (e.g., #contest or #sweepstakes). For example, Cole Haan offered a contest on Pinterest in which entrants created boards with Cole Haan shoes and were told to include the hashtag #wanderingsole. The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) investigated the contest and determined the entries were endorsements and that the contest was a material connection between the entrant and Cole Haan which should have been disclosed. While enforcement action was not taken because this was a case of first impression for the FTC, it does serve as a cautionary tale.\nIn short, a company intending to offer promotions utilizing user-generated content must recognize that while such promotions are a great way to develop customer loyalty and brand awareness, numerous risks exist. Counsel therefore, plays a pivotal role in the design, review, and, ultimately, dissemination of any online promotional offering.

        "title": "How Does Safety in Industrial Operations Optimize Productivity & Drive Revenue Growth?",
        "raw_content": "How Does Safety in Industrial Operations Optimize Productivity & Drive Revenue Growth?\nScott Stone October 21, 2015\nSafety in the workplace is no joke.\nU.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics data shows there were more than 4,500 fatal workplace injuries across all sectors in 2014, in addition to more than 3 million total recordable cases of non-fatal work-related injuries and illnesses.\nIn physically demanding and/or high-risk industries like many industrial operations, the implications of such injuries can be disastrous. Each year, manufacturers and distributors lose valuable manpower to slips, falls, and other accidents that hurt people, cause employees to miss work, and cost companies hundreds of thousands of dollars in workers\u2019 compensation claims.\nIf you run a warehouse, manufacturing operation, or heavy commercial facility, practicing workplace safety isn\u2019t just a good idea: It\u2019s essential.\nSafety in industrial operations is about more than just protecting workers, although that\u2019s always going to be the top priority. Promoting safety throughout the organization also helps to optimize worker productivity and drive revenue growth, over both the near and the long term.\nLet\u2019s take a closer look at how.\nIt\u2019s no secret that the American industrial industry is undergoing a significant shift in workforce demographics as the older generation looks to retire in the coming years and younger workers increasingly enter the workforce. Pew Research Center data, in fact, shows approximately 10,000 Baby Boomers will turn 65 every day for the next 19 years, which corresponds to increasing numbers of older workers retiring \u2013 at an alarming rate.\nFor manufacturing and distribution companies, the time to start capturing the safety knowledge of the retiring workforce is now. In other words, manufacturers and DCs need to set up a knowledge transfer process between new and retiring workers to promote safety best practices, as well as thwart any inefficiencies that might impede productivity.\nWhile such an investment in workers and their safety requires due time, resources, and attention, a Penske blog on workplace safety notes that \u201cevery penny spent trying to prevent an accident is better than any expense dealing with the results of an accident.\u201d\nThe Bureau of Labor Statistics data referenced above may appear shocking at first glance, but what the statistics fail to mention is that many of the workplace injuries highlighted could have been prevented in the first place with simple ergonomics.\nInjuries aside, ergonomics also helps to promote worker productivity as well as improve morale. By reducing physical strain on the body (i.e., floor-level lifting, stretching to reach loads above or below arm level, or bending over for long periods of time), ergonomics allows workers to focus on the value-added work \u2014 not the amount of physical effort required to get the work done.\nAs noted by Bishamon\u2019s Bob Clark, \u201cthe right [ergonomic] equipment can not only alleviate heavy loads and increase the range of motion for workers, it can also lead to efficiencies that translate to profit for your bottom line.\u201d\nWhile training is the foundation of all good safety programs \u2014 training and retraining not only reminds employees how to be safe, it also reminds them why to be safe \u2014 training programs can (and should) be augmented by safety automation.\nWhen integrated into a well-planned safety training and safety process, automation can be a valuable asset because it reduces the need for workers to be in high-risk areas. As a result, workers can be redeployed to areas where they can be more productive and efficient. What\u2019s more, companies can reinforce the importance of safety to employees across the organization.\n\u201cBy using automated systems and intelligent software,\u201d said SI Systems' Ed Romaine, \u201cour organization can reduce walking, searching, and time spent delivering things. These are all different means of reducing the ergonomic strain on an individual, which helps enhance a company\u2019s return on investment on their employees. It\u2019s a win-win for everybody involved.\u201d\nWith the sheer volume of worker injuries, illnesses, and fatalities that occur each year in manufacturing and distribution operations, organizations must be prioritizing workplace safety at all times. Working to promote safer and more efficient operations not only protects workers, but it also drives productivity and improves a company\u2019s bottom line.\nOptimizing Your Email Lists for Google Customer Match Next Story \u00bb",

        "raw_content": "Keep everything secure with board portal software\nWhen you\u2019re preparing for a business meeting or other mission-critical events, it\u2019s important to organize fast and efficient work with documents. At the same time, the security of corporate information shouldn\u2019t be neglected, as well. Traditional mail and courier service make document transfer too time-consuming and risky: you don\u2019t want third parties to access your business materials. What can be done? Go digital!\nWith the help of board portal software, you can organize work in the virtual environment and control the access rights for every participant. This is a responsible approach to document handling and is certainly the smartest one. Every board meeting app is designed so that the users\u2019 materials are stored in a cloud server. That ensures redundancy and exceptional security of data.\nHow meetings management software allows keeping your company secure?\nAll business materials can be stored in one place \u2013 a cloud server. That minimizes the risk of data loss and allows you to find necessary files much quicker. Convenient search tools are available in the vast majority of board portals.\nThe servers used for data storage guarantee the unbeatable protection of your files thanks to encryption, private keys, a firewall, and the level of role-based access rights. Providers offer the most advanced hardware and failure-proof cloud servers with a lot (or even unlimited) storage space.\nWith a board app, you can see who and when viewed, edited, and uploaded files. No action will stay unnoticed. The administrators can keep control over the documents and block access when required.\nMeeting manager software prevents unauthorized access. If you don\u2019t want your files to go public, you can make them accessible for certain personnel only. It\u2019s easy as one-two-three \u2013 navigation is intuitive.\nThanks to meeting organizer software, you can stay assured that meeting participants will view files only when needed. You can block access to documents whenever it pleases you.\nIt goes without mentioning that such solutions are easy to be used on the go. They are compatible with different OS, including smartphones like iPhone and Android.\nSecure access with the board of directors portal\nOne of the main security benefits of a board of directors portal is the possibility to set up access rights based on users\u2019 roles and other factors. Calendars and documents can be viewed or edited only by authorized people assigned by the administrator.\nYou upload corporate files and create folders where they can be organized.\nYou set up access rights either separately for every file, or for the entire folder. Users can be allowed to view/download/edit/share the documents \u2013 it\u2019s up to you to choose.\nSome additional meeting management tools can be used for security purposes. For example, access time out, or two-factor authentication.\nTherefore, with board software, you can be sure that no unauthorized personnel can get access to your files. You define who can work with documents, and how exactly. As soon as access expires, users are not allowed to work with files or view them.\nBoard meeting app for document security management\nThanks to the board of directors software, directors and administrators establish unbeatable protection of business documents. Access level is only one tool in their inventory \u2013 there are many other factors boosting the safety of documents. What else can a board meeting app offer for you? We have performed board portal comparison to find out which features are the most critical for establishing excellent security of meeting management solutions.\nFirst and foremost, board management software is available as a cloud solution, which means the files are stored on cloud servers. Such servers ensure 100% uptime and excellent redundancy, and they are protected by a firewall and advanced anti-hacking system. Besides, board software leverages encryption of data: that means that documents cannot be stolen or forged by third parties.\nSecondly, digital directory boards feature two-step authentication. This way, login name, and password are not enough to access files. Users will need to verify their identity before watching and accessing files. It can be done with the help of SMS code.\nThirdly, board software helps you to avoid paperwork. The risk of losing data accidentally is always high: it can be lost when sent by mail or carried in a case. With a board portal, you make storage of files totally digital: the files are kept in a highly secure place, they won\u2019t be spoilt, damaged or lost eventually. You save time and place in your office.\nThere are at least three reasons to leverage such a platform in your business:\nYou make preparation for committees and meetings more efficient and minimize the time required for document gathering and search.\nYou set up access rights for all participants and protect mission-critical information against malicious users.\nThe information is stored in safe and secure servers. It can be viewed from different devices, and you will sleep soundly knowing that it won\u2019t be lost or forged.\nAll in all, using a meeting board app is a must for companies that want to secure their mission-critical documents and prevent access of third parties.

        "raw_content": "I went to training in Fall 2006. The funny thing is, I didn\u2019t decide to go. I had been practicing for four and a half years when my mom decided I should go. I had been slated to go to law school, but decided I didn\u2019t want to go. I began writing fiction and was practicing yoga. My mom saw that I had a real talent for the practice and the philosophy behind it. I had pushed her to go to class. And as her practice developed, she really wanted me to be a teacher.\nI didn\u2019t think it was \u201ccool\u201d enough. I wanted to be a tortured artist, not a giver of light and love. It wasn\u2019t until I had been teaching for 8 years that I committed to being a full time teacher and healer. I wasn\u2019t ready until then. I had to burn through image1some of my own emotional pain and learn to create with it before I was strong enough to fully commit to teaching.\nWatching others reap the healing benefits of yoga the way that I have is the most rewarding for me. For years, I struggled with debilitating OCD and anxiety and this practice played a large role in healing it. I feel very fortunate to have had practices that allowed me to heal naturally.\nThe breath was the most difficult for me in the beginning of my practice. I was always very flexible and could fake my way through class, but it wasn\u2019t until I learned to breathe properly that I began truly reaping the full range of benefits from my yoga practice. The breath grounded me, allowed me to surrender, and has helped me to heal. As a client of mine recently said, \u201cThis breath, its like magic. It\u2019s so dumb. If only people knew it was so simple.\u201d\nI have developed a workshop called the \u201cAlchemizing Pain Into Light\u201d sessions. They are a combination of what I call my holy trinity of healing\u2014yoga asana, meditation, and journal writing. It is through these three modalities that I have burned through image2my pain and been able to alchemize it into beauty, poetry, love, and light. It\u2019s a continual process everyday.\nThe workshop is a combination of pranayama breathing techniques, chakra clearing, restorative postures, during which I tell my \u201cpain\u201d story, followed by an intensive vinyasa flow with an emphasis on backbends to open the heart chakra, a guided journal writing session and discussion then we end with a heart centered meditation.\nIt is my belief that it is our pain that tells our most powerful story. It is up to us to let it create our beauty rather than allow it to destroy us. With my workshops, I am offering a space where people can feel safe being vulnerable and expressing their pain so that they can get acquainted with it and use it to heal and give light to the world.\nAs humans, we are masters of developing hiding mechanisms to avoid. Some examples of these are shopping, television, relationships, drugs, sex, and varying other numbing mechanisms to avoid dealing with our lives.\nIt is only through confronting our pain that we can create with it and once we are strong enough to create with it we are able to heal. There truly is poetry in our pain.\nRequest a Private Class with Yarrow\nSome inspiration from Yarrow:\nThis practice is like magic. It allows us to unfold and discover ourselves in the most beautiful of ways. It helps us to train our minds so that we can become meditative and when we become meditative life flows more easily.\nKathleen Brett Paul Buschman",

        "raw_content": "Go-Go\u2019s Musical Head Over Heels, Co-Produced by Gwyneth Paltrow, to Play Broadway\nWe got the beat! As previously speculated, Head Over Heels, the new musical featuring the iconic songs of The Go-Go's, has solidified plans for a Broadway premiere. The musical will play a theater to be announced during the 2018-2019 season. The production will first play an out-of-town engagement at San Francisco's Curran theater from April 24 through May 20, 2018. James Magruder has written the show's book (adapted from an original book by Avenue Q Tony winner Jeff Whitty), with Tony winner Michael Mayer (Hedwig and the Angry Inch) as the musical's director and Spencer Liff (Falsettos) as choreographer. Gwyneth Paltrow is onboard as one of the show's producers; Head Over Heels will mark the Oscar winner's first Broadway outing.\nThe Go-Go\u2019s (Charlotte Caffey, Belinda Carlisle, Gina Schock, Jane Wiedlin and Kathy Valentine) said, \u201cIf you told us thirty years ago that our songs were going to be in a musical, we'd have said, \u2018Of course they\u2019ll be on Broadway!\u2019 None of us would have really believed it, though\u2014what a crazy idea! Yet here we are, with Head Over Heels\u2014a celebration of love in all its forms, joyful, fun and full of heart, driven by the songs that for decades have been making people jump from their seats and dance.\u201d\nMichael Mayer told Broadway.com in an exclusive statement, \"I think one of the coolest things about Head Over Heels is the rhythmic mash-up of the 1580s and the 1980s. Stories about love, power, sex and good government are often hilarious, and always timely. I\u2019m very excited to bring this show to the brilliantly renovated Curran theater in San Francisco this spring.\"\nInspired by Sir Philip Sidney\u2019s 16th-century pastoral romance Arcadia, the new musical is described as an Elizabethan love story turned on its head. There's a duke, a mysterious prophecy and two daughters: one mobbed by suitors, the other\u2026not so much. All of this is set to the beat of 1980s pop icons the Go-Go's, including such hits as \u201cWe Got the Beat,\u201d \u201cGet Up and Go,\u201d \u201cCool Jerk,\u201d \u201cVacation,\u201d \u201cOur Lips Are Sealed,\u201d \u201cLust to Love,\u201d \u201cHead Over Heels\u201d and Belinda Carlisle\u2019s solo hits \u201cMad About You\u201d and \u201cHeaven Is a Place on Earth.\u201d\nCasting and dates for Head Over Heels will be announced at a later date. The show held a 2017 workshop that starred Michael Park, Kristolyn Lloyd, Rachel York, Tom Alan Robbins, Bonnie Milligan, Alexandra Socha, Andrew Durand, Lawrence Alexander, DeMarius R. Copes, Yurel Echezarreta, Ari Groover, Brandon Hudson, Nina Lafarga, Samantha Zack, Jenny Laroche and Shakina Nayfack.",

        "title": "Teen Problems Can Be Complicated: 5 Tips for Parents to Help | Bothell Christian Counseling",
        "raw_content": "Hello, parent-of-a-teenager-with-problems (a.k.a. most parents of teenagers)! If you\u2019ve found yourself here, you\u2019re probably going through some tough times at home. Perhaps your child has grown up faster than you could have ever imagined and suddenly they are trying to claim independence at a rate you\u2019re not ready for. Maybe your teenager is going through struggles of their own, like depression, bullying, or anxiety, and you are not sure how you can help.\nYou might have multiple adolescents laying the groundwork for World War III in your home and you and your spouse are struggling to just get everyone to the table for peace talks. Whatever the situation, raising a teenager is hard work. But there is good news! This is perfectly normal, and while you might be struggling to see the light at the end of the tunnel, there are things you can do to help your teenager and bring the family together.\nBefore we get into some tips, however, let\u2019s address the question:\n\u201cWhat is a teenager?\u201d\nThis might seem like an obvious question, but it\u2019s helpful to acknowledge that to be a teenager means many different things. On the surface, we could define this as the age range 13-19. However, with every year that passes, adolescence seems to be growing in both directions. More and more, adolescence is continuing into the early 20\u2019s as financial realities are pushing adolescents to rely on their parents longer and longer. On the other end, the proliferation of social media and the interconnected nature of our world has allowed for kids to start acting like \u201ctypical\u201d teenagers by mimicking behavior and attitudes they see all around them at an earlier and earlier age.\nFrom another angle, teenagers are a completely different culture with their own rules and ways of interacting with each other. Not really kids, not really adults, the teenage years are this ambiguous in-between without a rulebook. At some moments they are expected to behave like adults, but still respond to and respect authority like children. The cognitive changes ongoing at this life stage allows them to form their own identity, but when family and culture can pull them in differing directions, this causes more anxiety in the ambiguity.\nFinally, teenagers are growing, changing beings. Voices drop, hair appears in places, curves grow, muscles form. Looking in the mirror can become not just an expression of vanity but an exploration of new territory. At the core of it, adolescence is a period of discovering who you are \u2013 internally, externally, and socially.\nNavigating and Addressing Teen Problems\nKeeping that in mind, adolescence is then fertile ground for issues to grow in and around your child. Here are some ways that you can help them navigate this tough time.\n1. Recognize the differences, remember the similarities\nTeens today are growing up in a world that is radically different than that of 30, 20, even 10 years ago. The proliferation of social media and smartphones are connecting us in ways that provide great opportunities, both positive and negative, for increased social interaction. Now the value of this connection is best saved for a different discussion, but the reality remains that adolescents are connected to each other 24/7. This means news travels faster. An embarrassing moment from a Friday night might not be the talk of the school on Monday, but rather the talk of the town by Saturday morning. It\u2019s difficult if not impossible to escape the grapevine.\nFurther, what teenagers (and really, all of us) choose to share on social media tends to be a sort of highlight reel of life. Given the insecurities that many teenagers are dealing with around self-image, family life, and success, these problems are further complicated when the everyday mundane to negative is being compared against their peer\u2019s highlights.\nRelated to this, adolescents are bombarded with mixed messages all the time. We often think of how the media portrays unrealistic standards for women, and it totally does. Also, our boys are expected to be \u201ca man\u201d in so many ways that are unrealistic. We see it in magazines, on television, on the internet \u2013 men with strong bodies, successful and dressed for success. If they are going to have a beard it will be full and not patchy. When men with a bit of a gut make it on the big screen, usually they are reduced to the punchline of a joke or are inserted for the comic relief.\nWhat does this tell our boys? That if they are not perfect, their only value exists in the humor they can provide around them. It robs them of their capacity to value intelligence, respect, kindness, and the ability to be whoever they want to be. For girls, all these issues exist as well and the margin for error is often even smaller. High school presents a very unforgiving social crucible where kids\u2019 own insecurities usually manifest in the bullying and tearing down of each other. Social media provides a whole new tool for bullying that can follow them around. In the pre- and early internet days, usually you could find respite from your bully once you got home. Now your bully can sit in your pocket all day long.\nHowever, not everything is different today than it was before. Remember that you were once a teenager and this time has always been challenging. You can remember what it was like to have your body morph before your eyes. Teenagers have always been cruel to each other and often just want to hear that their experience is not unique (although they might push back and say you don\u2019t get it, just remember while the actual experience may be different, the feelings and emotions are the same). You probably had some conflict with your parents. Maybe you felt misunderstood or like they couldn\u2019t relate \u2013 every generation feels that disconnect. So sometimes working with your teenager\u2019s problems will involve remembering the problems you had as a teenager, and telling your child what you would have wanted to hear then.\nRelated to the connection we all have through our phones these days, we might feel like communication is at an all-time high for humanity. However, exchanging texts between you and your child cannot replace face-to-face contact and conversation. We often end up in this odd situation where we think we have communicated far more than we actually have. In one sense, you might know where your adolescent is at all times; you feel close, and our brains are easily tricked into thinking we have communicated. However, really we\u2019ve only got as much information about our kids as TMZ gives you about celebrities. You know where they are, what they are doing, but not what they are feeling. This comes through face-to-face communication and connection.\nMany parents feel like their adolescents simply won\u2019t communicate with them. To start to crack that open, show, don\u2019t tell. Begin with communicating with them and not expecting much in return. Perhaps over the years your relationship has become strained and your child doesn\u2019t feel safe to bring their problems to you. You have to build that connection and bridge back. Honesty is a two-way street and they might respond drastically if you begin to communicate how you are feeling and how you are experiencing the world around you. Now, be careful here not to cross the line into switching the roles and leaning on your adolescent to solve your problems or use them as your own personal therapist. Rather, keep communication open enough that they recognize you are human, too, full of your own thoughts, feelings, emotions, strengths, and faults.\nOkay, I will be honest \u2013 this one might be the hardest. As humans we are many things, but consistency generally does not come naturally. We have moods. We have good days and bad days. Work affects us, family affects us, health affects us. Even weather patterns affect us. Some days your tolerance for your child\u2019s acting out may be higher, other days lower. However, although many kids might act as if they want all the freedom, you\u2019d be surprised how many teenagers I have worked with wish their parents would provide a little more structure and boundaries. Further, they want to be able to know they can rely on you. If you say you will be able to attend an event, don\u2019t let work get in the way. Consistency can help build the relationship and be something they will rely on. When your teenager has a problem, then, they will be more likely to see you and come to you for guidance.\nNow I\u2019m going to almost contradict everything I just said, so bear with me: exceptions are okay, too. Firm, dogmatic rigidity in the name of consistency isn\u2019t helpful. Maybe your child has a favorite band they\u2019ve been wanting to see for years, they have saved up the money, but they won\u2019t be home until 30 minutes after curfew. Given a history of good behavior, this might be a sort of situation where an exception can be made. Have the talk about what you want them to do to check in so you know they are safe, but also work with them. In general, it is helpful to be firm, but not un-bendable.\nTeenagers often look first to their friends to help with their problems. You might want them to come to you, but often this is just the case. It might help you to have some peace of mind, then, if you know who they are turning to. In order to do this, it might mean opening up your home as a place for them to be and to hang out. However, you have to ride the line of being present but not intrusive \u2013 perhaps preparing a snack for them or just being there to say hi and bye with a brief conversation at each end. If your child\u2019s friends trust you and think you\u2019re alright, they\u2019re more likely to point your teen back to you to help through their emotional problems.\nAnother aspect to this, some friends will simply be a bad influence. However, until you get to know your child\u2019s friends, you can\u2019t really know who is supportive and who to be wary of if your child is spending too much time with a certain friend. Broaching that conversation about a friend who is a bad influence, though, is always a tender task. However, if you have already kept communication open, gotten to know their other friends, and remained consistent, they will be more amicable to listening to you when the time comes to have tougher conversations.\n5. Cultivate support\nThis final tip really is the culmination of everything I\u2019ve said before. You might feel at a loss to dealing with your teenager\u2019s problems. It\u2019s complicated to know what to do if your child is depressed, angry, acting out, using drugs, etc. However, what you can do in any situation is help to cultivate support in their (and your) life. Building on the previous tips will help to create a network of support in you and in their peer group for them to lean on.\nHowever, sometimes it is necessary, normal, and okay to have some professional support. Teenagers often enjoy talking to adults who aren\u2019t their parents \u2013 they feel treated like adults and, as frustrating as it might be, might respond to the exact same advice just coming from a different mouth. A combination of individual and family counseling for your teenager might be just the help you need to get through a particularly tough time.\nFamily counseling provides a designated space to talk through problems between you two (or more) and provide a sort of neutral but educated arbitrator. Most teenagers I have worked with find that having space to be able to air their thoughts and have them interpreted back to you helps smooth over even the most constant and volatile arguments you may have been having.\nIn general, raising a teenager is definitely hard work. Hopefully these tips, while by no means exhaustive, can steer you towards setting yourself up for more success in working with your teenager\u2019s complicated problems. Know that as long as you\u2019re doing your best to provide a good amount of emotional support and structure, you\u2019re probably already helping. If you feel like you need more support, know there is no shame in reaching out for help. Just reaching out is a strength and a big step towards helping you, your child, and your family.\n\u201cAfter School,\u201d courtesy of unsplash.com, pexels.com, CC0 Public Domain License; \u201cScreen time,\u201d courtesy of unsplash.com, pexels.com, CC0 Public Domain License; \u201cSelfie time,\u201d courtesy of CreativeWix.com, pexels.com, CC0 Public Domain License",

        "raw_content": "\u00ab Hunger for Change: France / Argentina\nGSA Security Days in Vienna \u00bb\nRecapturing Subversion\nTwenty Twisted Rules of the Culture Game\nIntroduction to the book: ESCAPE THE OVERCODE\ntable of contents here\nLet\u2019s go straight to the point. How does art become subversive of the social order? How does it undermine normal, legitimate, accepted patterns of behavior, and how does it open up possibilities for the transformation of everyday life? What can subversive art accomplish in the political arena? And what are its limits, how can it exceed them in the future?\nThanks to Deleuze and Guattari, and perhaps even more, to the Autonomia philosophers, we have a good idea of what subversion can mean today.1 It\u2019s not about resisting the continual mutations of capitalism from a retrenched identity position, a class status, a locally instituted cultural tradition (a \u201cwhole way of life\u201d as cultural studies founder Richard Hoggart said, or even a \u201cwhole way of conflict\u201d as E.P. Thompson riposted). It\u2019s about allowing the inherited forms of solidarity and struggle to morph, hybridize or even completely dissolve in the process of encountering and appropriating the new toolkits, conceptual frames and spatial imaginaries of the present. Power flows through the individuals and groups who constitute a social network. It\u2019s generated by their productive activity, so it can always be twisted away from functional paths and channeled in different directions, to meet existential needs or to explore wild and unpredictable desires.\nYou can see this subversive potential at work \u2013 or liberated from work \u2013 in computer hacking, when someone takes the central productive techniques of contemporary society and diverts them for non-profitable or illegal uses, which involve sharing, free cooperation, collective action. Similar things are done by artists: commercial images and corporate organizational forms are taken apart, altered in detail or even at their functional core, then repurposed in a process very much like reverse engineering. Since the 1960s, the massive distribution and sharing of subversive practices has been the basis for a playful, astonishing and literally disarming style of conflict, displacing the fields and stakes of struggle and opening up new lifeworlds even while pursuing directly political goals. That\u2019s what happened at the counter-summits, on the global days of action, and in the networked campaigns, hoaxes and media interventions during the cycle of alterglobalization struggles running from 1999 to 2003.\nAt the time I collaborated with the French information-mapping group, Bureau d\u2019Etudes. Their graphic charts are populated by state and corporate entities whose operations and interconnections can be precisely described and documented. But when all the informational elements have been stripped away, what these network maps reveal are naked, indeterminate patterns of energy, of constituent power, the kind you feel coursing through your body in the process of social change. The network map becomes an energy diagram. That\u2019s what you can use for subversion. Free cooperation on the basis of subversive energies became something like a \u201cprinciple of hope\u201d for anti-systemic movements in the late 1990s and the early years of the new millennium. These are the kinds of practices I described in my last book, Unleashing the Collective Phantoms: Essays in Reverse Imagineering.2 Building on those experiences I have developed a theory of the generative diagram, presented here under the heading of \u201cPotentials.\u201d\nOnce we had understood that individuals and groups can become mobile and active within the maps of constituted power, then we were able to intervene in the social and political arenas. Through inspired collaboration, one could help to invoke networked demonstrations and occupations, and then participate as a \u201cfree radical\u201d in an emergent multitude. This is the moment of the mask, the bacchanalia of resistance: the \u201ccarnival against capital\u201d that activist-artists like John Jordan and Alex Foti have helped to unleash in city after city, in forms and with political demands that have continued evolving up to the present. One of the things that creates this possibility is the open identity of the collective name, something that the Luther Blissett project made into one of the primary vectors of subversion in media culture.3 What happened around the turn of the century was the emergence of collective phantoms on a transnational scale: movements that take a determinate name, like Reclaim the Streets or the Tute Bianche or No Border or EuroMayday, and then refuse to have leaders or structures, turning the category-trap of mediated politics into the open field of their own self-transformation.\nArt can transmit the pleasure of the collective name, so that it becomes a model, a possibility for others. It can show you how to don the mask of power and appear within the constituted circuits, but speaking in a different tongue, twisting the functional language of networked capitalism into different meanings, satires, denunciations, voicing calls for action ranging from policy change to sabotage to exodus. The Yes Men have been a great inspiration. They speak the truth of power, they lay bare its lies, hypocrisies, brutalities. But their way of working is open, cooperative and playful, inviting anyone who can lend a hand to subvert all the communication skills they have developed in their working lives \u2013 as I did most recently in 2007, when an entire TV studio in Paris helped us pretend to be a Washington news channel interviewing representatives of political parties in the course of the French elections. In fact, we were broadcasting live from the second floor, while another team was connecting us with the politicos right downstairs!\nSubversion is the takeover of urban space and the alteration of capitalist media for experimental ends, allowing you to break out of the normalized patterns and engage in vital contact with the social world and with yourself, with your own potentials. Another example is Nikeground \u2013 Rethinking Space, by the group 0100101110101101.org in collaboration with Public Netbase in Vienna.4 This was a paradigmatic case of reverse imagineering. It not only involved the proposal of a thirty-meter \u201cswoosh\u201d as public art for Vienna\u2019s historic Karlsplatz, but also the physical installation of a several-ton infobox on the square itself. The infobox was used to fictively advertise what the Nike corporation does in real life: namely, to transform urban space in its own image and to create the existential parameters within which that space will be experienced. Slogans announced the renaming of Karlsplatz as Nikeplatz, while explaining that the corporation was branding streets and neighborhoods around the world. At the center of the hoax was the product, a pair of brand-new red sneakers displayed in the infobox for the consuming public to desire: the very shoes that connect you to the ground and offer you a new mobility. The work responded to the real transformation of urban space with an aggressive, distorted mirror, both in order to show it for what it is and to suggest that you can change the rules of the game, by taking the right to intervene subversively in the city.\nWhile a scandal arose in the press, with concerned citizens protesting this fake expropriation, another urban myth was reawakened: the trashing of the Niketown in Seattle during the 1999 WTO summit. As the group explained: \u201cWe wanted to use the entire city as a stage for a huge urban performance, a sort of theater show for an unaware audience/cast. We wanted to produce a collective hallucination capable of altering people\u2019s perception of the city in this total, immersive way.\u201d\nNikeground offers a striking image of the artistic practices that flourished around the turn of the century. At its best such a hoax can be a provocative transgression and a symbolic echo of broader social movements. But anything transgressive or symbolic can easily fall into the category of the prank, oiling the wheels of commerce with self-reflexive humor. Today we need to ask about the limits of this subversive alteration of perception. How to transform the underlying circuits of power that continue to function massively all around us? How to respond to the real intensification of all forms of exploitation and oppression? What else can be done with the subversive potentials of art in the control society?\nCapture and Overcode\nSince 2004 I have been less involved with direct action and more with unclassifiable projects that function as mobile laboratories and experimental theaters of social and cultural change, where movements of the imagination unfold at territorial, national, continental and global scales. Such projects are explored in this book under the heading of \u201cExperimentalism.\u201d Often they border on the recognizable limits of art, using sophisticated formal means to develop some relative autonomy from the norms of everyday aesthetic experience in the commercialized societies. But what\u2019s being sought here is the autonomy of an investigative and transformative process that upsets the codes of the constituted fields and undercuts any kind of institutional control.\nThe surface reasons for this shift are obvious. The increasing repression of the last big cycle of struggles, the consolidation of the post-9/11 security panic and the failure of the antiwar marches of February 15, 2003, all contributed to a momentary decline in street protest in many countries, and a partial retreat of activism into merely symbolic and therefore melancholic forms. Make no mistake: concrete social movements continue to exist, as important, as surprising as ever. But there were theoretical problems to face, which have to do with damning insufficiencies in a number of key ideas in the autonomist toolkit adopted by so many activists and politically engaged artists since the turn of the century. These are practical ideas, dealing with the status of freelance labor in contemporary capitalist societies. Yet practice is inseparable from both aesthetics and discourse. The problems coalesce around the abstract concepts of overcoding and the apparatus of capture, both of which refer to parasitic social constructs that are understood to contain, normalize and channel the diagrammatic energies of free cooperation. Most of the essays in this book, even when they extend to geopolitics, are attempts to understand and to go beyond these key ideas.\nDeleuze and Guattari\u2019s text on \u201cThe Apparatus of Capture\u201d is a geophilosophy of power, pitting the territorial deployments of the state against the subversions of the nomadic war machine.5 At its heart is the notion of overcoding, developed out of studies of ancient imperial mythology by the historian Georges Dum\u00e9zil. Overcoding is the institution of a social tie, a quasi-magical bond, imposed as a language of power. It\u2019s the organizing grammar of a transcendent symbolic hierarchy that casts its unifying net over the proliferation of primitive tongues that had initially named and encoded their disparate patchworks of territory. This overcoding of experience appears everywhere there is a symbolic hierarchy, mapping out a realm of transcendent figures that serve as idealized measures of rank and value, to organize the chaotic tangle of social relations on the ground. The overcode is the ultimate apparatus of capture: the law of the gods, the language of the stars, given voice and effective reality by the emperor. Capitalism, with its extension of the world market, came to decode these transcendent structures, releasing dynamic, mobile flows on a plane of pure immanence; and world populations then entered the endless strategic game of encoding, decoding and recoding the possible forms of existence. This game is played out in the smooth space of the market, whose image for Deleuze and Guattari is not the hierarchical chessboard, but the undifferentiated grid of the Japanese game of Go.\nThe ideas of capture and overcoding laid the foundation for the first really challenging political interpretation of globalized capitalism, Hardt and Negri\u2019s Empire.6 The book uses Deleuze and Guattari\u2019s concepts to explain the difference between the classical forms of late nineteenth-century imperialism and the smooth, networked space of today\u2019s global market. The apparatus of capture now designates all the devices for the modulation of experience and the channeling of behavior that serve to organize the productive energies of the multitude. Thus for Hardt and Negri, the immediate world of direct social relations \u2013 and the direct violence of exploitation \u2013 does not so much dissolve the ancient operations of overcoding, as transmute them. Along the same lines, Deleuze and Guattari themselves insisted that in the modern period, the quasi-magical powers of the ancient emperors continually return under new modalities. This is exactly why one can speak of a networked empire, exerting coercive powers distinct from those of classical imperialism. Negri and Hardt follow the insights of Deleuze and Guattari into the society of control, and they relate the specific procedures for the capture and modulation of attention under networked capitalism to the regulatory effects exerted by the monetary regime of floating exchange rates, with all its consequences in the financial sphere. What they have done in this way, along with other theorists of postmodern power, is to open up one of the most important fields of research for any practice that wants to gain autonomy from the reigning system of values and measures. In my work since 2004 I have tried to carry out that kind of research in a deliberately destabilizing interplay with artistic inventions, according to a meta-theory of critique that I call \u201cextradisciplinary investigation.\u201d The idea is both to understand a complex world and to change it.\nThe relation between fluctuating electronic signals and human attention has become a central component of social experience, from Wall Street and Times Square to the great Asian cityscapes, or from the flatscreen TV at the local bar to the cellphone in your ear and the laptop in your bed on Sunday morning. What\u2019s at stake is a sound-and-pixel environment where informational objects unfold in time, exciting human desire and channeling it into mathematically ordered patterns and figures. This relationship with screen environments can be better understood by exploring the underlying technoscientific principles of cybernetics, cognitive psychology and complexity theory. A clearer grasp of how these principles have been applied over the course of the last half-century is fundamental to autonomous practices, since it is ourselves, as cultural producers, who are called upon to fill these screens with content. And beyond these proliferating screens there is a constantly expanding universe of computerized recording, analysis and surveillance, gathering behavioral data in order to more effectively pattern the movements of populations and to produce effects of governance. So we\u2019d better know how these processes work, and how they can be undermined \u2013 because experience shows that there is nothing easier to instrumentalize than yesterday\u2019s subversion. The studies devoted to cybernetics, in the final section of this book, are transversal to the essays on art and social movements. The visual metaphors of those texts are drawn chiefly from cinema, giving further scope to the extradisciplinary investigations.\nBut overcoding in the global market society does not only involve the directive signals of computers and screens. Throughout his later writing, Guattari uses the word overcoding to talk about the imposition of models of interaction, whether in the workplace, in institutions, in aesthetics and entertainment, through professional relations or via the architecture and programming of collective facilities. Like Foucault, Guattari was particularly interested in the subjective dimensions of governmental procedures and technologies; but he always laid more stress on resistance, invention, deviance \u2013 in a word, subversion. The clash between politically engaged artistic practices and the management of the creative industries marks one of the characteristic intersections of governmentality and subversion, the site of what I once called \u201ca contested bridge between the psyche and the objective structures of society.\u201d7 One way to prolong the discussion of works like Nikeground is to look at the role of global brands in soliciting and structuring our most intimate desires for creative expression. And here one sees the limits of the autonomist discourses on overcoding and capture.\nAnalysts of the brand see it as a common semiotic ground for uprooted urban consciousness, a kind of psychic crossroads for post-traditional subjects with no fixed identity. This comes close to the autonomist idea that the productive cooperation of living labor can only be captured by coercive strategies, which are fundamentally weak, exerting only a containing, channeling effect. As Adam Arvidsson explains in his book on the subject: \u201cNike\u2019s efforts to make its logo condense a complex web of meanings and intensities have the effect that with a swoosh certain actions come to assume distinct and particular meanings.\u201d And he continues: \u201cWhat brand owners own is a particular pre-determined frame of action, a particular relation between \u2018action and semiosis\u2019; between what consumers do and what their actions mean to them.\u201d8 What consumers do, he suggests, is to buy products and put them to their own uses; and what their actions mean to them is that they are creatively individual and connected to others. If corporations control this creative interaction, it is only to the extent that they can make it unfold in more or less programmed directions. For Arvidsson, the brand-relation is exactly this two-way street, which he sees as highly ambiguous and full of untapped possibilities.\nArvidsson claims that the trademark image only succeeds in capturing the attention and loyalty of consumers when it allows them to fill its empty signifier with personal meanings, thus mobilizing \u201cthe ability of human communication to produce a surplus sociality.\u201d The key thing for the brand is to become a vector of this surplus, aggregating it into a desirable pole of attraction while still encouraging continually renewed spin-offs of creative divergence. This is how people are supposed to become individuals in our societies. Like the particular clothing, hairstyles and accouterments of the Mods and the Rockers back in the early days of subcultural style, a plethora of global brands now offers the entire consuming class a chance to develop their fantasied self-image, to raise their prestige in the eyes of others, and above all, to reach out to fellow members of their branded community, signaling the vibrancy of their own existence by specific uses of the global product. Information-gathering techniques ranging from personalized ethnographic interviews to automated data-mining can then record and synthesize the unique contributions that consumers make to brand content, permitting an extension and transformation of the trademark image, and therefore, greater use-value for the creative consumer.\nReading Arvidsson, it seems that the \u201ccommunism of capital\u201d evoked by autonomist theorists is amazingly close. For Paolo Virno, the communism of capital would mean the unrealized possibilities of the flexible work regime: the abolition of wage labor, the end of state coercion, and above all, \u201cthe valorization of all that which renders the life of an individual unique.\u201d But watch out: in Virno\u2019s eyes these were unrealized possibilities, cruelly distorted by actual developments in the post-Fordist economy, which had gone in a fundamentally opposite direction since the 1980s.9 For Arvidsson, who deals with contemporary forms of communication, the advent of this \u201ccommunism of capital\u201d means that the normative character of advertising in the highly regimented era of the 1950s, with its basic injunction to conform to one\u2019s class status by accepting broadly standardized forms of consumption, has now entirely dissolved into a relational paradigm where all the initiative is left up to the consumer. It is she who ultimately sets the terms on which both consumption and communication will take place. In artistic practice, the soft utopias of relational aesthetics offer a perfect image of this communicational universe.10 To be sure, as Arvidsson explains, brand management still functions as a form of Foucaultian governmentality, channeling and orchestrating the diverse expressions of power-potentials that arise from below:\nThe brand works as a kind of \u2018platform for action\u2019 that is inserted into the social and works to \u2018program\u2019 the freedom of consumers to evolve in particular directions\u2026. The task of brand management is to create a number of resistances that make it difficult or unlikely for consumers to experience their freedom, or indeed their goals, in ways different form those prescribed by the particular ambiance.11\nThe most powerful of these \u201cbrand-management resistances\u201d is against resistance itself. It is banished by simply denying its existence, as is so often the case in our societies. In a fascinating passage, Arvidsson recounts how consultants define the \u201ccool\u201d or resistant individual in ways that exclude any potential threat to profitability, but instead identify this type of person as a prime source of information about the future pathways of social desire. \u201cCapturing cool,\u201d he writes, \u201cis a matter of incorporating and profiting from the resistance that consumers spontaneously produce.\u201d Yet still he claims that capitalist command over the informational economy is in crisis. Any constraint on the user\u2019s freedom becomes, in his analysis, a powerful contradiction in a system that has had to legitimate itself with an ideology of autonomy. Each time the brand contradicts its own ideology, he says, consumers react with sharp rejections. \u201cThe forces of production are becoming too advanced to be contained within the capitalist relations of production,\u201d we read on the final page of his book. So, according to the most precise autonomist analysis of brands, the apparatus of capture has been perfected. And it is now in the process of setting us free.\nThe analysis flows perfectly from its postulates. Why then is it so strangely mistaken? On the one hand it is the result of a deliberately idealizing strategy, an attempt to cut through the usual gloom and doom to focus on what has really been achieved through decades of collective struggle against advertising and social control. But on the other hand it partakes of a creeping denial of reality, characteristic of postmodern schizophrenia. What we\u2019ve seen since the turn of the century, after a major outpouring of subversive art, a concerted attack on intellectual property regimes and a world-spanning protest movement unfolding under the slogan \u201cNo Logo,\u201d is not an implosion of the brand-relation but a veritable explosion of commodity fetishism, at the scale of global markets and the speed of fiber-optic networks. The coexistence of overcoding and resistance is everywhere, sure, but to explain it as a dialectic of freedom or a teleological movement toward capitalism\u2019s self-overcoming is to obscure the real issues.\nTravel across the world network: nowhere do you encounter any generalized disaffection from the signifiers of participation in the capitalist economy, despite the deviant minorities in every port. Only a deep financial crisis shakes the faith of the middle classes, as happened during the closure of the banks in Argentina in 2001-2002. But that shaken faith has an odd way of returning. What you do see on such travels is that the rise of the relational commodity has been accompanied by a resurgence of both confessionalism and racism \u2013 not only in the underdeveloped lands, but also in the overdeveloped regions of North America and Europe. Here lay the undeniable heart of the problem after 2004. As the world slid deeper into war after Bush\u2019s reelection, all the fundamental issues of power and emancipation seemed to return as unanswered questions. And from my perspective, the most important among them was the role that we could play: we who work with communication, in the so-called creative industries.\nTo understand where we are, we have to look back into the genealogy of some crucial subversive ideas. Back in the mid-1960s, Mario Tronti described how the organizational and technological structures of capitalism could only appropriate the inventions of workers in their resistance and their freedom.12 Toni Negri developed a similar theme in philosophy, with his vitalist ontology of living labor.13 Foucault and Deleuze also echoed Tronti\u2019s insights, with their paradoxical notion that resistance is primary.14 Over the course of decades, such ideas seeped into broader currents of political philosophy and activism, in and beyond Western Europe, resulting in far more liberating views of grassroots struggle. Yet from here there also arose the willfully optimistic belief that the openness of the relational commodity \u2013 in the form of Web 2.0, for example \u2013 or the extraordinary proliferation of the creative industries could somehow represent a \u201cgreat transformation\u201d of capitalist society, a decisive change in its structures that only needed to be taken up in its full promise and stabilized in new institutional forms.15 These ideas were supported by economic developments in America, ranging from the more utopian side of Jeremy Rifkin\u2019s pronouncements on the end of work to the early successes of the Internet-based \u201cnew economy,\u201d or the great entrepreneurial infatuation with \u201ccrowdsourcing\u201d and the enthusiasm over free software and open-source content licenses, brought to a pinnacle by Yochai Benkler in his book The Wealth of Networks. The key ideas were that innovation and creativity are fundamentally uncontrollable by any labor discipline and that the recording and distribution functions of the Internet offer new possibilities to organize these capacities into a productive synthesis.16 Some even saw the erratic swings of the stock market as an imperfect but promising representation of the collaborative potentials of the multitude.17 Overcoding and the apparatus of capture now began to look like obscure leftist myths dissolving in the sunlight of cooperative agency \u2013 exactly as they had always appeared to the liberal theorists of civil society. What disappeared in all this were the ideas of Tronti himself, his passionate conviction that workers must throw off the organizational structures that transform their labor and life energy into the driving force of capital.\nWriting in 1971 in a postscript to the second edition of Workers and Capital, Tronti evoked the industrial strategies of Taylorism as \u201cthe birth of a new scientific discipline: that theory of technological reality which is the science of labor and the enemy of the worker.\u201d18 In our era, when knowledge management and the endless quest to identify and channel innovation represent the dominant strategies for exploiting the educated postindustrial labor force, how could one see crowdsourcing, corporate networking technologies or the codification of the creative industries as anything but the enemy of the multitudes? If something is to be done with \u201ccreativity\u201d today, it must first of all escape from the protocols of capitalist control. Tronti, in his time, was remarkably clear. For him, the working class is \u201cat one and the same time, the articulation of capital, and its dissolution. Capitalist power seeks to use the workers\u2019 antagonistic will-to-struggle as a motor of its own development. The workerist party must take this same real mediation by the workers of capital\u2019s interests and organize it in an antagonistic form, as the tactical terrain of struggle and as a strategic potential for destruction.\u201d19 In our time, this translated into a struggle against the definition of a \u201ccreative class\u201d by capitalist sociology, and above all, against its functionalization for strategies of corporate, urban and financial profit.20 Artists, writers, actors, painters, audio-visual producers, designers, musicians, philosophers, architects, all have had to find ways to refuse to let their subjectivity become the mere medium of capital flows, a stepping-stone between money and more money. Anyone who feels the inordinate pressure that direct management now exerts on the intelligence and expressivity that it demands and continually solicits, and anyone who can see those same pressures reiterated in the tight stylistic, financial and temporal constraints of the freelance markets of creativity, will find in Tronti\u2019s writing both an incitement to resistance and exodus, and a keen analysis of the governing structures of capitalist society, of its dynamic equilibrium. Yet this analysis needs to be updated, where both the objective structures of contemporary society and the subjective dimensions of creative labor are concerned.\nWhat becomes visible in my own studies of the productive or \u201cprosumer\u201d ethos of the creative industries around the world is the tremendous effectiveness of the new motivational paradigm and the particular power of conviction it seems to hold for those involved in culturalized production. The reason for this is that even with hyperflexible markets giving all the advantages to the state or corporate buyer, everything connected to the arts still offers a chance for self-expression and a veritable economy of self-development \u2013 which is no small attraction. So far, cultural producers have generally been diffident about politics and favorable to free-market conditions, because at least they have themselves to sell at cut-rate prices. In terms of sheer narcissistic pleasure, the comparative advantage to the sale of one\u2019s raw physical labor or disciplined professional expertise is obvious. To theorize an inevitable sublation or even an impending breakdown of the cultural system under the pressure of its inherent contradictions is to repeat an historical error of antiquated Marxism (and the second time around is definitely farce).\nYet something has been going on here nonetheless. What\u2019s happening in the thick of the creative industries is best described as an intensely vital Nietzschean struggle over the transvaluation of values. This struggle unfolds between those who have been won over to the most innovative strategies of overcoding, that is, of concentrating power, prestige and control capacity in salable signs; and those who, on the contrary, seek constantly to decode the frameworks of their experience, to escape the imposition of calculated models of behavior and to discover forms of interaction where the problematic gap between an ethics of collective conduct and an aesthetics of singular desire is the significant question, the central focus of value. At this point, the privileged status of art within the creative city and creative economy discourse obviously has to be left behind; and even more, it has to be actively resisted, deliberately subverted, so that something new can arise in its place. The enigma for us is why this second option has only been taken, so far at least, by a relatively small minority. What creates a contemporary leftist culture? How is a subversive subjectivity forged? And what blocks its formation?\nOne thing every new struggle shows is that experiences of cooperation across the divides of class, geographical origins, gender, educational backgrounds and ethnicity is part of the crucible from which dissenting subjectivities emerge. The radical cultural differences of those who cooperate in social movements, and the potential of that cooperation to transform lives, bear witness to a subversive potential that extends far beyond the moments of convergence and action. The type of mobile, dynamic, protean individual shaped by participation in the networked world market (what I call the \u201cflexible personaity\u201d) clearly has a better chance of eluding capture when he or she is exposed to confrontations of values with people from very different horizons. What\u2019s compelling is not just the diversity of backgrounds, traditions and identities, but above all the multiplicity of efforts to overcome a frozen heritage and reconnect the past with the future. But we need to work much more on the ways of articulating multiplicities.\nIt\u2019s clear from the resurgence of racisms and nationalisms \u2013 and from their calculated imposition through governmental rhetorics \u2013 that the interactions of the global market are not the only vector for the formation of the self. In fact, it seems that layers or strata of subjectivity are formed quite differently at different scales, from the urban to the national, the continental and the global. Concretions of sovereignty \u2013 that is, mechanisms of capture and overcoding \u2013 are found at each of these scales, contradicting or at least vastly complicating the notion of a single, quasi-structural opposition between networked empire and multitude. All these formative processes come to bear on the intimate scale, which in turn has its own potentials of invention, expression and contagion. Here is the complex theater where the real is reimagined and reconfigured. What we need at this point is maybe less intoxication with quick and dirty attacks on the brands (irresistible though they may be) and more attention to an anthropology of self-fashioning. And since many thousands of active people who have reshaped their convictions in recent social movements are now beginning to play around with cultural self-management, it may be possible in a time of crisis to launch broader and more significant experiments in decoding and recoding \u2013 that is, in collective metamorphosis. Yet to achieve this would in turn require a deeper knowledge of persistent sovereignties and control techniques, along with an ability to map their restructuring with each new round of systemic crisis.\nOne of the things I\u2019ve tried to do in this book, particularly with respect to art and the creative industries, is to explore the political-economic frames in which collective metamorphosis takes place (or all too often, is blocked and stymied). But rather than analyzing these enabling and constraining frames in their exclusively national dimensions, where most of the information and interpretation is still confined, I\u2019ve shifted the focus both to the globe-girding scale of empire and even more importantly, to the continental blocs, which for many reasons seem destined to emerge as compromises between capital\u2019s demands for ever-increasing mobility and humanity\u2019s need for some kind of political and territorial stability, and ultimately, some kind of ecological balance. To make that more precise, I would say that situating the lived dynamics of a particular city within the necessarily abstracted patterns of national, continental and global circulation is the best way to move toward \u201cGeocritique,\u201d which is the necessary reformulation of cultural critique in the present. Essays in this book deal with Latin America, the European Union and the continental and imperial dimensions of both the United States and China. As we have discovered through collective work in the Continental Drift seminar,21 the five scales of intimate, territorial, national, continental and global experience all tend constantly to interrelate, making the lifeworld into an interplay of scales. The pressures on the self become considerable under the multiple rule-sets of this spatialized game; but so does the vital interest of the players. Tremendous questions of translation arise, of course, even before one moves beyond one\u2019s areas of linguistic competence (English and the Romance languages, in my case). But these questions of translation are among the most urgent and rewarding issues of our time, if one is not afraid of getting lost among the tongues and stories.\nThat the book should end with detailed studies of the remote-control systems born of the military science of cybernetics is a token of the times, which have witnessed one last desperate and ill-fated resurgence of the old Anglo-American drive to imperial hegemony. Cybernetics is the original model of today\u2019s globally scaled interaction routines. Its early forms are the \u201cDark Crystals\u201d of a still-expanding control society. The wartime science has developed along two basic paths. One follows the original command-and-control imperatives of the military communication engineers, giving us a global architecture of surveillance; while the other, thrust ahead by the reflexivity of so-called \u201csecond-order cybernetics,\u201d has opened up proliferating realms of semiotic experience, worlds of simulacra and simulation which are devoted chiefly to the pursuit of consumerism by immaterial means. The command-and-control apparatus reinforces certain disciplinary paradigms, verging on authoritarianism; while second-order cybernetics tends to reinforce the channeled and guided transformations of the flexible personality. The aspiration to democracy is stretched to its limit along these two paths, as we have seen in the post-9/11 wars and security panic, then in the credit bubble leading to the great meltdown of the computerized financial markets. The wreckage of these developments is still extremely dangerous (\u201ctoxic\u201d was the word in vogue at the date of writing). Fortunately, a decade of net-critique has shown that all these artificial worlds can be entered on the sly, hacked, repurposed or just exposed in their sheer arid worthlessness, as the case may be. Reverse engineering is still the great subversive paradigm.\nCrucial to any experience of the digitized worlds is the question of modeling, which abstracts from one context of interaction the parameters, rules and protocols that will make it possible to formulate another one. Of course, this is the technique that has given us control environments such as airports, malls, entertainment palaces and other \u201cscripted spaces,\u201d where carefully constructed scenarios of experience are modulated in real time according to data gathered from the people moving through them.22 But a long tradition of dissent and subversion within the sciences of complexity means that cybernetics cannot entirely be reduced to the procedures of control. At their best, cybernetic reflections have offered an introduction to the act of creating a model and inhabiting its unexpected transformations, which are never solely restricted to informatic spaces. The most compelling thing of all is to engage in full-fledged experiments with the grounds, the dreams, the philosophies and the concrete social machines through which people become other, leaving their initial territories behind and embracing the culture of self-transformation that remains the most fertile potential of post-68 experimentalism. F\u00e9lix Guattari has given one of the most useful indications of how to do this, with his fourfold map of the schizoanalytic cartographies, to which I have devoted the culminating essay.\nWhat\u2019s initially at stake is the relation between mute existential territories and constellations of poetic, lyrical or artistic refrains, which make up what Guattari calls \u201cuniverses of reference or of value.\u201d23 The philosopher-therapist wants to introduce us to the territories where subjectivity gains the desire to speak and act through a contact with the deterritorializing rhythms of art. He describes art, not as it hangs on the wall in a museum, but as it returns in your memory and your senses, as a refrain or ritornello of insistent presence cut off from anything you could precisely define or own. But rather than stopping there, and specializing in a fleeting and inchoate domain of aesthetics, he goes on to describe how people are inspired to leave behind their initial grounds of existence in order to participate in the temporal flows of concrete social projects which are themselves deterritorialized by rhizomes of abstract ideas. The four zones of the map \u2013 existential territories, energetic flows, rhizomatic ideas and constellations of aesthetic universes \u2013 thus become a matrix of relations between different domains of action and experience. Art, or philosophy for that matter, is no longer approached as a strictly specialized zone, but as a mobile element in an existential mix. Which means that art, like philosophy or the other disciplines, is no longer a stable or identifiable category, no longer a trap for subversive potentials. What you\u2019re looking at with Guattari\u2019s meta-models are not determinate maps, but suggestions of the kinds of interactions that people can try to orchestrate with each other, in full awareness that there will always be thresholds of unexpected chaos before any kind of world comes together.\nEvery subversive project, whether artistic, theoretical or activist, attempts this risky passage between worlds. What we need in autonomous cultural production is to try such experiments in more focused, intense, complex and perhaps grander or more chaotic ways. The incessant overcoding of invention and experience by capital is a spur to sweeter and wilder emancipations at all the different scales. There is no reason to be afraid: a movement toward autonomy is the only way to fully reengage with the social and political dimensions of existence. To speak of \u201ccapture\u201d in these contexts is only to indicate a momentary grasp, an encounter, an embrace. Maurizio Lazzarato, whose work is a great inspiration, describes speech itself as a pulsating magnet for the attention of other speakers, a \u201ccapture of captures\u201d that interjects its transient rules into the fluctuating realms of expression.24 The texts that follow offer twenty twisted rules for the games of art, knowledge, geopolitics, technology and intimate desire. Put them all together and the aim is clear: escaping the overcode, recapturing subversion.\n1 For introductions to the political philosophy of Italian Autonomia, see Michael Hardt and Paolo Virno, eds.

Notice that here, there is no consumption : there is production. A deliberatiely subversive device like Nikeground is created, not consumed. The blog you are reading is created, and it is read with the strict minimum of commodified relations intervening, to the extent that there is no advertising, you don\u2019t pay for anything except the electricity and the tool you use (I consider a computer a tool), what\u2019s more the talk was delivered at a self-organized, not paid-for event, etc. There is no reason to think of yourself as \u201cconsuming\u201d either the blog or the event, the whole point is to clear out some semi-autonomous space within all that pervasive and invasive consumption, which if course is very real and affects us all. There has been a tremendous amount written about \u201cCulture Jamming\u201d (title of a book), Adbusters has year by year accumulated huge amounts of stuff on subversion through consumption, and according to an entire academic discipline called cultural studies, that\u2019s the very definition of culture itself! Of course they have some interesting points to make, but I don\u2019t find this so-called \u201csubversion\u201d very interesting in those forms, and the point of this text is to look beyond that. What you are doing as an artist may be different, may be fantastic, I have no clue and more power to ya if you are on to something new! But subversion-through-consumption is a very old idea, going back to Pop art I guess, and it now has thousands of accolytes among the Madison Avenue types. One could also argue that Nikeground draws on that old tradition even if it gives a slightly different twist; yes, for sure, I would agree, and it is the twist that I find valuable and also limited.\n[\u2026] -Recapturing Subversion: Twenty Twisted Rules of the Game [\u2026]\nGhosts of Our Pasts: Neoliberal Subjectivity and Crisis (Part 1 of 2) | Deterritorial Investigations Unit Says:\n[\u2026] 1These five scales of experience were developed by critical theorist Brian Holmes and the 16 Beaver Group\u2019s \u201cContinental Drift\u201d movement.

        "raw_content": "\u00ab The CIGNA 7 Get Themselves Arrested\nFour Pathways Through Chaos \u00bb\nYou claim that \u201ccollective aesthetic practices, proliferating in social networks outside the institutional spheres of art, would be one the major vectors for this double desire to grasp and transform the new world map\u201d. You describe it as a do-it-yourself geopolitics. Sometimes, as a person from the site of art production coming exactly from 1990s DIY practice, I have doubts about it as I also face a lot the danger of getting quickly normalized and institutionalized as soon as you create an autonomous network and space. How to prevent it\u2026 among the art events, markets, bodies of institutions and state?\nYeah, you\u2019re quoting a text written at the end of the network-fever period, around 2003, summing up the kind of wild enthusiasm we felt during the height of the counter-globalization movement. A lot was done, important experiments with political consequences, and I wanted to inscribe some of that in my essays, especially the ones gathered in the book Unleashing the Collective Phantoms (2007) but also in the text \u201cDIY Geopolitics\u201d from my recent book. Of course you cannot do that stuff in art contexts and museums get filled with a lot of opportunistic simulations of activism that does not really exist. For me as a theorist, it was necessary to move on to other ways of working. However, if you look at a figure like John Jordan, he has gone back to assuming the persona of an artist, teaching and performing, and at the same time he keeps on inventing aesthetic techniques for protest interventions, like CIRCA \u2013 the Clandestine Insurgent Rebel Clown Army \u2013 which is a huge, viral, multitudinous practice. Someone like Alex Foti, who is not an artist, had a similar influence in the EuroMayday movement. So, art or not, who cares? The important thing is to try new experiments after the former inventions come back formatted and repurposed, overcoded. That\u2019s why I say, \u201cEscape the Overcode\u201d \u2013 you can never hang on to the old stuff, society takes it away from you. Despite all that I think the art scene is good for more concentrated and sophisticated aesthetic practices, good for developing theory, good for getting around and meeting people too. I publish for free, collaborate, protest, subvert whenever I can, and I am not too worried about being recuperated, although frankly the whole Biennial episode was pretty embarrassing for me, I am not used to making such compromises. However, that\u2019s the breaks of operating in an alienated society: the content and orientation of the Istanbul Biennial was great, a huge advance over what is normally done, but the frame, determined by other forces, was pure neoliberalism, with an additional national-fascist component brought by Koc. You could say similar things about Documentas 10 and 11, the big difference is that there was more protest in Istanbul, bravo for Istanbul, obviously I appreciate it! However, I do think the work of WHW has had very positive effects over the last ten years and I do want to help change the art institutions so that they are more meaningful and can maybe even help people to survive what promise to be the dangerous decades of the early twentieth-first century. We\u2019re not there yet, the institutions have not been transformed, as the recent experience proves.\nThe economic geographers JK.Gibson-Graham ask: \u201cHow might non-producers of social surplus have a say in how surplus is generated, appropriated, distributed, and those to which it will not?\u201d1. As recently I refer to Gibson/Graham\u2019s claim that they try to find the ethical place for the distribution of social surplus value; the value that is not produced in any specific form but reclaimed even by non-producers. How can this help to explain collective places of contemporary art practices that pursue discursive engagements through ideological background and supposedly free themselves from the institutional structure in order to reclaim the distribution of the social surplus that might help to question the ethical positioning? What is the relation between socially-engaged collective art practices between \u201cthe existing flows of surplus value\u201d?\nThat would be a better question for Claire Pentecost, who is one of the keyholders of a space called Mess Hall here in Chicago, they do exactly the things you are asking about. If you don\u2019t mind I\u2019ll let her answer:\n\u201cMess Hall is an artist-run space on the north side of Chicago. It was started over six years ago when a landlord read in the New York Times arts section about Temporary Services, a Chicago based collective. He contacted them and asked if they would like to run a gallery in a storefront in a building he owns at a price of $1.00 per year. Temporary Services was not interested in taking on such a project by themselves, but saw the opportunity of expanding on surplus, so they invited several other artists to work with them in starting a space. The artists who run the space are called \u201ckeyholders\u201d as they literally each have a set of keys. There are about 10 of us now, only one of whom was part of the founding group. No one is a director; we run the space without hierarchy and it seems to work very well. We don\u2019t really know the motivations of our landlord, and it really doesn\u2019t matter; we have always done what we wanted with the space and he has never bothered us about it. All kinds of things go on there: skill sharing workshops, film screenings, reading groups, lectures, panels, discussions, performances, exhibitions, demonstrations, celebrations, memorials. The programming is a mixture of things we organize and things proposed to us. We get several proposals a week. Almost everything that happens there would not be supported by a market-economy. Everything at Mess Hall is free. It\u2019s an experiment in a generosity economy since our being there depends on an originary act of generosity. In 2007, inspired by the Black Panthers, we decided to make a ten-point declaration of our principles. It was a maddening, yet clarifying and satisfying exercise, one we recommend. Here are the results:\n\u2013We demand cultural spaces run by the people who use them.\n\u2013We create the space to remix categories, experiment, and learn what we do not already know.\n\u2013Mess Hall explodes the myth of scarcity. Everyone is capable of sharing something. \u2013The surplus of our societies should be creatively redistributed at every level of production and consumption.\n\u2013Social interaction generates culture!\n\u2013We embrace creativity as an action without thought of profit.\n\u2013We demand spaces that promote generosity.\n\u2013Mess Hall insists on a climate of mutual trust and respect \u2013 for ourselves and those who enter our space.\n\u2013No money is exchanged inside Mess Hall. Surfing on surplus, we do not charge admission or ask for donations.\n\u2013Mess Hall functions without hierarchy or forced unity.\u201d\nHow you define and discuss the differences in 1960s and 1990s of counter-urban practices involved with contemporary art practices?\nThat\u2019s gonna be tough, I was only an itty-bitty baby in 1960. Probably there are a lot more such practices now, because a few generations have opened up a space in the public imaginary for such things. Also the decay of public services under neoliberalism means there are a lot of abandoned spaces, poor spaces, where you can do things because it\u2019s a ruin. On the other hand, the brutality of the police is on the rise and the security panic is limiting all kinds of informal practices these days. One big difference is that from the 70s up to today, the practice of real counter-spaces and not just fancy theoretical models requires the practitioners to exit from the bourgeois high-art or architecture circles. An example is all the experiments organized by Doina Petrescu and Constantin Petcou in urban interstices in Paris, including Ecobox and their subsequent projects, which are marginal in architectural discourse but have an important presence in the city and have also fostered a communications network between practitioners all over Europe. It\u2019s amazing work, Hackitectura in Spain is another example \u2013 but people higher up the foodchain of architecture just don\u2019t want to get their hands dirty with such things. The nostalgia for the \u201960s just makes me want to puke by the way. I think much more interesting experiments are happening today. The architects in their fancy ties and the pseudo-Situationist urbanists in the universities have lost their nerve and imagination, so most of them stick to models and studies and moan about the good old days. Fortunately there still are some exceptions, more and more, but the hypocrisy of \u201960s nostalgia remains a sore point.\nBy contrast to the formalism of the often de rigueur relational aesthetics, French theorist Jacques Ranciere enlists an ontological argument to detect and describe similar construction in art performance and political performance. Which I find similar with most of your arguments that are about the role of art; especially when you describe at the end of your text in \u201cThe Politics of Perception\u201d (with Claire Pentecost). Could you give some examples? What could be the forms of resistance?\nYou\u2019re right, at the close of that text we traced a totally ontological line from Merleau-Ponty to Castoriadis, with Guattari in the background, who would be a direct mediator with relational art. You seem a little dubious about the results! Claire and I are interested in the affects of resistance and alterity, which are not only the affects of fire and let\u2019s bang it up in the streets. There can also be longer-term projects, involving some kinds of care and changes in daily life, aspects which feminism has given more attention to. That work with tacit dimensions of knowledge and feeling also extends into performance and of collaboration, where the people involved are the artistic material and the work is trans-subjective, it consists in the effects it has on others. We did try an experiment the summer before last, called the Continental Drift through the Midwest Radical Cultural Corridor, which involved around a dozen people moving through the vast Midwestern territory for about ten days, contacting other groups, visiting sites, trying to understand where we are and where we could be in this weird, half-devastated former industrial region, which is also ravaged by agribusiness and more recent forms of corporate hyperexploitation, not to forget an enormous heritage of racism and the prison industry too. I don\u2019t think you can do that kind of experiment in an artistic frame \u2013 we certainly did not \u2013 but there are some spinoff works that can be worth showing as traces or proposals for the future. Generally speaking, the reception and elaboration of artistic gestures requires more attention than is usually given, as you can see by the fact that there is so little important art criticism, with the exception of maybe Boris Groys or Suely Rolnik. All the interesting catalogues are mostly about politics, geography and sociology, which is obviously important and welcome, but it leaves a hole at the very center of the artwork. The problem is that there is no good language for affect, you have to invent a style to express it. In our co-written text we wanted to explore various economic, philosophical and artistic issues while also developing a style between us. It\u2019s just one further attempt. Of course I dislike relational art because it always seems like an advertisement for a relational process that never happened. Still the ontological dimension exists and I am looking for more ways to work with it.\nAs an art critic how do you think your practice is functioning in the production of art knowledge? How you describe your position?\nOh, it\u2019s clear, after for working for years with museums and accomplishing something, I guess, now I want to help open up space for more radically critical and constructive leftist practices within what I consider to be one of the key institutions of neoliberal society, namely the universities. There\u2019s a programmatic text that sketches out the basic idea, \u201cExtradisciplinary Investigations,\u201d once again developed with Claire though she isn\u2019t a co-author this time. It\u2019s a matter of leaving your discipline \u2013 art, philosophy, geography, psychiatry, whatever \u2013 and coming to grips with another discipline, not just as a theory but as an effective vector of power in the world. You try to cast light on that other discipline, get inside it and then criticize or even intervene on the effects it is producing; then you take that experience as a way to transform your original discipline. Most of what I now write about partakes of this process. I\u2019m gonna be meeting with faculty from a number of departments out at Northern Illinois University the day after tomorrow, around exactly those themes. In 2002 I used a similar strategy in a text called \u201cThe Flexible Personality,\u201d which was conceived as a Trojan Horse or a kind of discursive equivalent to Trotskyist \u201centrism\u201d \u2013 you know, when the intellectual Trots would plant themselves in institutions without ever saying who they really are, and try to surreptitiously take over. Well, this text on the Flexible Personality adopted the arguments and tone of the Frankfurt School, fully legitimate as top-level dead white male theorists in the academy, and it used that heritage to suggest the possibility of criticizing the knowledge economy and practicing what I called, as a detournement of Habermas, \u201ccommunicative activism\u201d! Now I constantly meet students who have appropriated that text as a possibility for a radical approach to contemporary society and its forms of exploitation and oppression. It seems to be a touchstone for many of them, like \u201cLiar\u2019s Poker\u201d has been for a number of activist-artists. The point is to contribute to getting us out of this twisted neoliberal hegemony that has poisoned the planet while reducing mainstream intellectuals and artists to narcissistic idiots of culture or natural born killers in the financial sphere, a rather sad fate either way, imho.\nAs an outcome of the transformative relation of the art object-subject, current artists are more practicing as a researcher, critical agencies with producing several forms of mapping, alternative publications\u2026bit different then the image of modern artist of the previous century. Do you think this practice could have a danger to be easily appropriated by different geographies of neo-liberalization?\nAll of the excitement around mapping began with the new topologies of the Internet and the model of contextual research coming from architecture. It was very necessary because the pace of social change became so rapid after 1989: it was another world, you had to get oriented. I liked Bureau d\u2019Etudes the best because they were the most critical, we collaborated and distributed those crazy maps by the thousands in the big demos. A few years later it was natural for Eyal Weizman to work with them on the Territories show which was another important milestone (I did the editing and translations for the catalogue, funny how that happens). However, it must be recognized that there has been a lot of fancy prestige associated with the simple fact of making a map or a diagram. Geography hooks into this new art/research fashion pretty easily, and I don\u2019t have to talk about social-network graphs, because the opportunities for corporate cooptation of that are all too obvious. It\u2019s normal, the vanguard work on that kind of stuff was completed five or ten years ago and now the patterns are set and the big-time cultural production is launched. It\u2019s time to leave mapping behind. The revolutionary web experiments of the 1990s have become Facebook, a new variety of mas delusion. This is why I am moving toward the ideas of territorial intimacy and inquiries around class and precarization, which are urgent here in the US and have the potential to help people get really really angry. We understand the network society now and it is time to attack the networked ruling class, that\u2019s what I think.\nYou were involved with the journal Multitudes but left it (as far as I know); could you tell about that, and your experiences about the border of discourses and disciplines how it influenced your decisions in integrating yourself to art and activist sites?\nMultitudes was a fantastic intellectual crossroads, full of friendship and cooperation, utopian philosophy, aesthetic adventures, economic analysis, political militancy, network experimentation and also a lot of acrimonious polemics which is apparently how it works in any Parisian journal\u2026 I followed it from its inception in 2000 and then joined in 2003 after having set my own course, so that was a good foot to begin on. Fundamental to the journal were the Italian emigr\u00e9s, Toni Negri, Maurizio Lazzarato, Paolo Virno, Antonella Corsani, Carlo Vercellone and others, most of whom also came to Barcelona and participated at the Macba in contexts organized by Marcelo Exp\u00f3sito, so there was a clear interlinkage with art developments as well. The Italians worked mainly on the concepts of general intellect, social cooperation, cognitive capitalism and the common. But Multitudes went far beyond the Italians because it also gathered many former collaborators of Deleuze and Guattari, including French people like Anne Querrien, Giselle Donnard and Eric Alliez, but lots of people from outside France as well, ranging from the Belgian epistemologist Isabelle Stengers to the Brazilian schizo-analyst Suely Rolnik. In addition to the basic concepts of autonomous Marxism, quite well known by now, I have been specially interested in Guattari and schizo-analysis, which provides the kind of trans-subjective ontology I was talking about above, as well as important understandings of social assemblages and processes of deterritorialization. The use of the horse-head nebula on the cover of my recent book is fully inspired by Guattari\u2019s notion of chaosmosis, which is a process of self-transformation including territorial and cosmic components. But back to Multitudes: the journal made a significant contribution to the leading edge of leftist philosophical, economic and aesthetic discourse in this decade, and I am glad to have made a significant contribution to the journal by editing one full issue (number 15) and one dossier or \u201cmajeure\u201d (number 28) as well as various articles. There was recently a big split in the journal (yet another one) which resulted in the departure of the whole Autonomist wing and a number of associated people, myself included. My reading of that is complex (I do give some ideas about limitations of the general Autonomist discourse in the introduction to my recent book), but one thing is clear. Coming out of the 1990s dot-com boom, Multitudes banked on the idea that networked cooperation represented a productive innovation within capitalism. This new cooperative potential could be seen, in good Marxist fashion, as being contradictory to the limits imposed on (immaterial) production by the very nature of capitalist exchange. Yann Moulier Boutang in particular developed this kind of idea, maintaining that the cooperative potentials of cognitive capitalism had already brought about a \u201cgreat transformation\u201d in the capitalist societies, including many positive aspects that now should be stabilized and protected through a \u201cnew new deal\u201d along the lines of Roosevelt in the 1930s. This basic position led him to many rather absurd conclusions, such as the idea that because of their supposed role as the register and stimulus of cooperative production, the stock markets would work wonders promoting a green-economy boom in California. Yeah, sure. After the financial crisis fully declared itself in September 2008, the hypocrisy of being in a journal whose \u201cdirector\u201d made such statements (because YMB had managed to have himself considered the \u201cdirector\u201d of the journal too) became unbearable to me. There also emerged a fairly broad consensus among the exiting members of the journal that the mechanisms of parasitic governmentality, cybernetic control and financial expropriation were the defining features of cognitive capitalism, and that the point was not to stabilize the system but to explode it. So that was the end of the story as far as I am concerned. However I am glad to remain part of the ever-expanding circles of Autonomist Marxists and I think brilliant things were done in the journal Multitudes. May its afterlives bear ever more fruit and cause ever more disruption.\nThis entry was posted on October 22, 2009 at 2:20 am and is filed under 1.\tYou can follow any responses to this entry through the RSS 2.0 feed.

Says:\n[\u2026] Interview with Pelin Tan do-it-yourself geopolitics Share: [\u2026]\nRelational Aesthetics Go Political Says:\n[\u2026] Continental Drift [\u2026]\nerden kosova Says:\nthe translated version in eXpress is slightly different. some of the questions and answers above are missing in eXpress, whereas the question and answer about the Istanbul Biennial is missing here in the english original.\ni checked the original cos i m little bit surprised by brian\u2019s answer, in which he states that the exhibition is harmed by external condition, most signifcantly by the \u201cnationalist-fascist\u201d frame imposed by the Ko\u00e7 group, a frame produced by neo-liberalism (if correctly transcribed and translated).\nit is no doubt that the istanbul biennial is severly harmed by the politics of IKSV and its links with corporate support. and it looks like that the ko\u00e7 family (at least the deceased grandfather vehbi ko\u00e7 who promoted the 1980 coup and the father, rahmi ko\u00e7 who has some dark links with the state) is not distant to a widely formulated ground of neo-nationalism, that resides on white-nationalism.\nbrian also states in the following sentence that luckily there have been protestations against the biennial (or against its corporate links).\nmy contention would be here that if the quality of \u201cnationalist-fascist\u201d is to be used here, it should refer not to the contrived sterility of ko\u00e7 group that deliberately abstains from impositions onto the art event (the word neo-liberal is more fitting) and produce an image of \u201curban cultivatedness\u201d, but to the \u201csome\u201d strands of the protests against the biennial which have been equating anything belonging to the field of contemporary art with western cultural imperialism and striving for a nation-based formulation of resistance.\nHello Erden, greetings, I hope you are well.\nI am very curious about your comment! Of course I am happy to post it as it but it is mysterious to me why you say the question about the Biennial is missing from the English version, because it is not. Check the text again, you will see.\nAs far as the translation goes, of course I have no idea. Frankly, I have no idea about the character of Express magazine either, it is quite difficult for a foreigner to know such things. In the English text above I say \u201cthe frame, determined by other forces, was pure neoliberalism, with an additional national-fascist component brought by Koc.\u201d So in other words, I am saying that everything outside the direct control of the curators is very strongly determined by neoliberal-type urban promotional concerns, WITH SOMETHING ADDITIONAL, namely what I have identified (correctly or incorrectly) as this \u201cnational-fascist element brought by Koc.\u201d By national-fascist I refer to Koc holding\u2019s involvement with the Turkish military-industrial complex \u2014 which, in the Turkish as well as the American case, appears to me to be a very dangerous institution, always connected to nationalism and intrinsically subject to fascist developments as we saw in America under Bush.\nSo, yes I am happy that there were some protests against the Biennial, because I think it is necessary, indeed very important, that protests be held against the use of art as a communication strategy for the promotion of urban real-estate within the general competition of metropolitan centers against each other. The presence of Koc holding among the sponsors also seemed to be a legitimate focus of protest. I do not at all believe that either neoliberal type promotion or militarist nationalism is the best way to develop any form of culture\nBeyond that, I am broadly ignorant of the exact character of the protests. In my experience, such expressions are often a mixed bag and could include some very ignorant positions. If I myself thought that any contemporary art, and specifically the art shown by WHW, was necessarily reprehensible, anti-social, capitalist etc, then of course I would not have participated in any way! I do not believe that. I think you have to make distinctions. But I still think it was good to protest against the way the Biennial is run, its sponsorship, and above all, against the IMF and the World Bank. Protest can be quite good for democracy. So that is what I am trying to say. Social life is complex and sometimes one can think it is important that people protest against something one has been personally involved in. That is my case with the Biennial.\nAnyone else who had further clarifications or explanations to add should feel free to do so, including yourself, Erden, I have every respect for your comments and I am sure you can add much more to this discussion.",

Auctioning something off can take on the impossible. One can auction off a house but not a bridge, right? In Reuth, located 85km northeast of Bayreuth and 25km northeast of its nearest town of Hof in southwest Saxony has entered the unknown to prove that anyone in the town of 1100 or the surrounding area can buy the bridge at the price they are willing to bid. Faced with lack of funding to support the community, the town is auctioning off its railroad bridge located just outside of town at its train station. The 100-year old Howe pony truss bridge, which spans a rail line and carries pedestrians, is very unique because of its vintage lampposts at each end of the structure plus its arch-like heel bracing located beneath the bridge deck. The bridge is currently in the way of progress as the German Railways is planning on electrifying the Franconia-Saxony Express route which connects Dresden and Nuremberg, stopping at Bayreuth, Hof and Chemnitz and features the G\u00f6ltzschtal and Elstertal Viaducts, located 30 km northeast of Reuth. Currently, all overhead lines, which had started in Chemnitz, have stopped at Hof and plans are in the making to extend further southwest, with a goal of completing the project by 2013, which may include reintroducing the ICE trains, which have been out of service since 2004. Because of vertical clearance issues, the pedestrian bridge will need to be removed so that the electrification process can continue through the town.\nAccording to Reuth\u2019s mayor, Ulrich Lupart, the bidding (which is available online via eBay) will start at 10,000 Euros, which is the price for scrap metal. Persons interested in the bridge will bear the responsibility of dismantling the structure and re-erecting it wherever he pleases. The mayor envisioned it being erected at an amusement park or over a valley at nearby Peropolis, when asked about future purposes by central Germany\u2019s radio station, MDR-Info (stationed in Halle (Saale)) It is unknown how long the auction will last, but Lupart plans to have the bridge demolished should there be no takers, which he claims the town will have to bear the cost itself for that and would receive less money when it is sold for scrap than it would if it was auctioned off.\nWhile little info was given about the bridge, the Freie Press newspaper, located in Dresden, provided a photo of the bridge, which one can click on the link below. Those interested in the bridge should look at the eBay site as it has been posted with details. Otherwise they are asked to contact the town of Reuth for more details. Should the bridge be successfully auctioned off, it could serve as an incentive for other towns to do the same both in Germany and Europe as well as in the US, as the financial crisis has tightened the belts of many communities, making plans for rehabilitating and reusing historic bridges almost impossible to achieve due to lack of funding. The Bridgehunter\u2019s Chronicles wishes the mayor and the community of Reuth best of luck with its endeavors.\nLinks (only in German):\nhttp://www.freiepresse.de/NACHRICHTEN/SACHSEN/Reuther-Bruecke-kommt-unter-den-Hammer-artikel7761005.php\nhttp://www.mdr.de/mdr-info/reuth100.html\nhttp://www.mdr.de/dabei-ab-zwei/bruecke118.html\nhttp://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sachsen-Franken-Magistrale\nBy Bridgehunter's Chroniclesin News 16. September 2011 557 Words2 Comments\nBridgeport Bridge (Finally) Came Down\nBridgehunter\u2019s Chronicles News Flyer:\n14 September, 2011 Bridgeport, Ohio- After three years of attempts to bring the bridge down and over 22 years of sitting idle and neglect, the three-span Parker through truss bridge spanning the Ohio River came down yesterday. Crews planted explosives in the substructure to implode the bridge and bring it into the river. Built by the Wrought Iron Bridge Company in Canton, the bridge used to connect Bridgeport and Wheeling, WV before it was replaced in 1998 with a concrete structure, which carries US Highways 40 and 250 today. The Bridgeport Bridge had received national recognition for its unique design and was even eligible for the National Register of Historic Places. Unfortunately, pleas by preservationists, pontists and locals to convert the bridge into a pedestrian crossing fell on deaf ears and ultimately led to the bridge to sit abandoned for over 13 years, allowing the structure to deteriorate to a point where extensive rehabilitation was no longer considered an option due to exorbitant costs and safety and liability concerns. Already during the visit as part of the 2nd annual Historic Bridge Conference last year, the roadway was taken out revealing much of the bridge parts, which had corroded away to a point where it had landed into the river. This prompted the US Coast Guard to issue an ultimatum to have the bridge removed or face fines and other sanctions, which the department of transportation of both Ohio and West Virginia heeded to. While parts of the bridge, including the finials will be salvaged to be given to the historical society and other interested groups for display purposes, the bridge will be cut into pieces and sold for scrap metal.\nFor more information on the bridge, please refer to the following links provided by the Bridgehunter\u2019s Chronicles and Historic Bridges.org:\nhttp://thebridgehunter.areavoices.com/2011/06/03/bridgeport-bridge-finally-comes-down/\nhttp://www.historicbridges.org/ohio/us40/\nMore on the bridge demolition can be found here:\nhttp://www.theintelligencer.net/page/content.detail/id/559278/Long-Standing-Bridgeport-Bridge-Razed-Today.html?nav=515\nhttp://jimgrey.wordpress.com/2011/06/16/saying-goodbye-to-the-old-bridge-at-bridgeport/\nBy Bridgehunter's Chroniclesin Bridge Profile USA, FYI Bridge Newsflash, News 14. September 2011 349 Words1 Comment\nThe 3rd Annual Historic Bridge Conference: Missouri\nThe Gateway Arch in St. Louis: The starting point of the westward movement was also the starting point of the 2011 Historic Bridge Conference\nAfter having the first two historic bridge conferences in Pittsburgh in 2009 and 2010, the third annual conference took place in Missouri during the weekend of 12-14 August. Missouri, like its East Coast counterpart is dealing with a dwindling number of historic bridges, as the number of these artifacts have dropped by as many as 60% within the past 10 years with more scheduled to come down in the coming two years, especially those spanning the Missouri River between St. Louis and Kansas City. However, unlike Pennsylvania, there is a glimmer of hope for some of the structures that are slated for replacement as the private and public sectors (the latter in particular with the Missouri Department of Transportation) are working together to find new ways of using them for recreational purposes as they cannot handle the increasing number, size and weight of today\u2019s traffic anymore. The question is since the involvement of the public sector in these efforts is very recent, whether the help will come too little too late\u2026.\nAs many as 60 people attended the three-day event, hosted by James Baughn of the Historic Bridges of the US website based in Cape Girardeau (MO) with assistance from Todd Wilson of Bridgemapper.com out of Pittsburgh (PA), Kris Dyer of the Save the Riverside Bridge Initiative located in Ozark (MO) and Jason D. Smith of the Bridgehunter\u2019s Chronicles based in Erfurt, Germany (part of areavoices.com), as the event went across the state starting with Friday\u2019s events in St. Louis. A highlight of the weekend events are below:\n12 August: The event started with a gathering of bridge enthusiasts and many guests at the Gateway Arch, located next to the Eads Bridge. Named after the engineer who designed it James Eads, the structure is unique because the metal deck arch bridge, built in 1874, was the first all steel bridge to be constructed in the United States . The bridge was recently renovated in 2003 in a way that the upper deck now serves local traffic and the lower deck carries metro lines.\nUsing the bridge as the starting point, the tour continued with the visit to all of the bridges along the Mississippi River in downtown St. Louis, which included the Merchant\u2019s, McKinley, and Chain of Rocks Bridges. The third bridge, together with the one spanning the Canal west of the mighty river were once part of the old US Hwy. 66 (a.k.a. the Mother Road or Main Street USA), which ran from Chicago through St. Louis enroute to Los Angeles. Rain and thunderstorms shortened the bridgehunting tour with many bridge enthusiasts taking cover underneath the Chain of Rocks Canal Bridge. While it dampened the tour, the rain was much-needed for much of the region was extremely dry for two months straight after a extremely wet spring which saw the Missouri and Mississippi Rivers flood its banks in the region, wreaking havoc in the low lying areas, much of which is still under water at the time of this entry.\nEads Bridge with Lewis and Clark (and their companion) under water. While the two explorers of the Great Northwest would admire the uniqueness of the bridge, they would be scratching their heads at the weather the Missourians and those living along the Missouri River have been experiencing as of late\nThe Old Chain of Rocks Mississippi River Bridge- once part of Route 66, the bridge is now part of a network of bike and pedestrian trails serving the city and areas along the mighty river\nThe event ended with a dinner at the Veritas Cafe and Wine Bar in Chesterfield, located in the western part of St.Louis, which featured various goodies, a assortment of wine, a raffle drawing for bridge-related prizes, and a little show and tell by the presenters of the evening. Among those presenting were Ed Darringer of Rush Co., Indiana, who talked about the Moscow Covered Bridge and its successful reconstruction efforts, which he photographed and documented in a book published this year. The 345 foot long covered bridge was destroyed by a tornado on 3 June, 2008, and it took two years to salvage parts of the structure and rebuild it to exactly match it to the one originally built in 1886. The efforts received some much-needed support by Indiana Governor Mitch Daniels, who vowed not to use taxpayer\u2019s dollars on this project which had personally affected him.\nThe second presenter was Julie Bowers of Workin\u2019 Bridges, an organization based out of Grinnell, Iowa that focuses on saving and relocating historic bridges. It was established as the Skunk River Greenbelt Association and was in connection with the collapse of the McIntyre Bridge, an 1883 bowstring arch bridge built by the King Bridge Company in Cleveland, OH that fell into the water during the flood of 2010. A section of the bridge was presented by Ms. Bowers prior to the presentation, and the main goal is to salvage and rebuild that bridge at its original location while at the same time, relocate another bridge, the Upper Bluffton Bridge in Winneshiek County to a wildlife refuge area for reuse. An article about the Upper Bluffton Bridge can be found here:\nhttp://thebridgehunter.areavoices.com/2011/06/28/upper-bluffton-bridge-is-on-the-move/\nA small show and tell moment: A piece of a horizontal beam from the McIntyre Bridge which broke off when the structure was washed into the river in 2010. Courtesy of Julie Bowers of Workin Bridges\nThe third and final presenter was Jason D. Smith of the Bridgehunter\u2019s Chronicles, whose topic was on the Public Perception of Preserving Places of Historic Interest between Germany and the US, using the preservation laws in Thuringia and Schleswig-Holstein and historic bridges as case studies. A detailed version of this topic will be posted in a later article.\n13 August: The second day of the conference started off with a grand tour of the historic bridges along the Mother Road, first stopping off at the Meramec Crossing and the state park which uses the riveted Warren deck truss structure as the centerpiece. The bridge was completed in 1931, five years after the US Highway System was introduced and Route 66 was designated. It served traffic until 1951 when the highway\u2019s successor, I-44 was built and the bridge was used to serve westbound traffic until the new eastbound bridge was built in 1968 and the structure was reverted to local traffic. It was completely closed to traffic in 2009 due to structural concerns. Efforts are now being made to market the bridge to a private owner, who will have the responsibility of rehabilitating it for recreational purposes, with MoDOT being the lead agent. This is the first time the governmental agency has been involved in this process, since it had been known for closing and condemning historic bridges, according to various sources closest to the historic bridge community. After the presentation, the tour was directed at bridges like the Devil\u2019s Elbow Bridges in Pulaski County, Bird\u2019s Nest (Crawford Co.) and Boeuf Creek (Frankin Co.) Bridges (just to name a few of the dozen bridges that were visited by the bridge enthusiasts). Optional trips included the one to Enochs Knob Bridge in Franklin County, a 1908 pin-connected steel Parker through truss bridge with a history of ghost stories and tragedies and one which is a target for replacement with a concrete slab bridge even though the road is rarely used. Molly Hill is leading the effort to preserve the structure in its place, even though it has been barricaded recently and it now takes 10 minutes (or 1/4 mile) to walk to the bridge.\nHave you hugged or kissed a bridge lately? Molly Hill definitely showed her love for the Enochs Knob Bridge, which she is fighting to save the structure and its history from becoming victim of modernization\nEnochs Knob Bridge: Despite the bridge being closed off, a ten minute walk is well worth the sight.\nThe other side trip was to the bridges in Christian County south of the city of Springfield, where a tour took place beginning at the Riverside Bridge in Ozark. That bridge is the focal point of efforts being undertaken to reuse the bridge as a bike trail. Despite damage to the flooring and lots of debris caused by the flooding this past spring, the structure remains in fairly good condition. Other bridges included on the tour were the McCracken/Ozark Mill and Bridge, Green/Symra Road Bridge and the Red Bridge. The tour attracted many people from the region and reunited two friends who hadn\u2019t seen each other since their days in college, a span of 13 years. That evening, a benefit for the Riverside Bridge took place at the Ozark Community Center, which included a silent auction and four presentations. Jason D. Smith of the Bridgehunter\u2019s Chronicles emceed the event. As many as 40 people attended the event, including Ozark\u2019s mayor and Christian County commissioner Lou Lapaglia, who donated money to the coordinator of the event, Kris Dyer, who also is director of the Save the Riverside Bridge organization. She was the first to present the plans of how to incorporate the bridge into the city\u2019s bike trail system. It was then followed by Bill Hart of the Missouri Preservation organization, who talked about the objective and successes of this important actor in preserving historic bridges in the state. James Baughn followed with his presentation on his website and the state of historic bridges in Missouri, with Todd Wilson closing out the evening with providing hope to the preservation of truss bridges in the US, using the Riverside Bridge as a case study. The benefit itself was a smashing success as it raised over $1600 (without the costs relating to the benefit, it totaled over $2000) for the project. There\u2019s still time to help support the project, as you can see in the link below.\nhttp://thebridgehunter.areavoices.com/2010/11/21/riverside-bridge-in-christian-county-missouri-the-attempt-to-preserve-it-for-the-next-generation/\n14 August: The third and final day of the conference took the enthusiasts to Kansas City and places to the north and west, although a pair of stops at the Papinville (Bates Co.), Young\u2019s Ford (Vernon Co.) and Caplinger Mill (Cedar Co.) Bridges were included in the itinerary. Some of the bridges that were seen in Kansas City included the Intercity Viaduct, a double decker Warren deck truss bridge, whose lower deck is now a bike trail while the upper deck still serves traffic today. There is also the Christopher Bond Bridge, which carries I-29 and 35 as well as US Hwy. 71. Both span the Missouri River. The Twelfth Street Viaduct, which spans the railroad year is the only concrete viaduct, whose main span features a concrete arch. Then there is the ASB Bridge, the only bridge in the world whose lower deck can be raised to accommodate boat traffic. That deck is still being used by the BNSF Railways today, while the upper deck, which used to serve local traffic has long since been removed thanks to the opening of the Heart of America Bridge in 1985. This unique contraption was the work of J.A.L. Waddell, a world renowned civil engineer from Ontario, Canada, who was a harsh critic of other truss designs during his day but invented his own truss style with the Waddell A-frame truss bridge. There is only two Waddell through truss bridges left in the US, one of which can be seen at the English Landing Park in Parkville. Unfortunately, due to recent flooding along the Missouri River, the park is still completely closed off to all tourists as parts of the area are still under water at the time of this entry.\nCongregating on the Caplinger Mill Bridge in Bates County\nPapinville Bridge south of Kansas City at its best during the visit.\nThe flooding, which was caused by excessive rains and a late spring thaw in the Rocky Mountains (where the Missouri River starts its journey) delayed construction of many bridge replacements along and in the vicinity of the Missouri River. This included the Amelia Earhart Bridge in Atchinson, Kansas, a continuous through truss bridge built in 1937 and was scheduled to be taken down once the new structure was completed this fall. This seems to be unlikely as many roads are still under water. It also includes the Rulo Bridge in Rulo, Nebraska, which was completed in 1936 and has a design similar to its counterpart downstream. While much of the town is high and dry, parts of the low lying area are underwater, and the Missouri side represents the Red Sea, which not even Moses can divide up. Much of the flooding has affected the areas east of the Missouri in parts of Missouri and Iowa cutting small towns off from the outside world and shutting down I-29 between Omaha and Kansas City, rerouting the whole stretch starting at I-80 east to Des Moines and then south on I-35, which also leads to Kansas City. While flooding will result in billions of dollars worth of lost revenue, it did delay the inevitable for the two aforementioned bridges as they will most likely remain up until at least the middle part of next year.\nOverall, the historic bridge conference was indeed a success, even more so than last year\u2019s event in Pittsburgh in a way that for the first time, it drew interest from the public sector for they are interested in ways historic bridges can be preserved. While most of the presentations given at the 2010 conference consisted of proposals in joint cooperation between the public and private sectors, ways of converting a saved bridge into recreational use and ways of detecting and fixing problems on bridges per se, this year\u2019s conference presented some practical experiences that have been made or are being made. Given the fact that there are many ways to initiate projects through cooperation plus there are examples of historic bridges that have been saved for reuse for recreation, this year\u2019s conference has increased the interest from the public in general in preserving these artifacts for future use in a way that the resources, the contact people with experience in preserving bridges and the interest in historic bridges and ways to preserve them are there. It is more of a question of putting aside the differences and excuses and moving forward and saving the relicts of the past so that the next generation can take advantage of what is there and learn a bit about historic bridges, how they are associated with the community and how they are connected with American history not only with regard to the Industrial Revolution but also the social aspect and how the people constructed them to accomodate traffic and transport people and goods from A to B. While Kris Dyer is making waves throughout the county with the efforts to save the Riverside Bridge in her community and Molly Hill is starting her campaign to save the Enochs Knob Bridge ignoring her own opposition from those who want the structure and its ghosts buried, others who may not have heard about historic bridges until this year\u2019s conference will most likely jump on the bandwagon with their own bridges that are targeted for demolition and replacement, for as Todd Wilson mentioned in his presentation: \u201cAny bridge that is not saved will disappear in a short time.\u201d To add to his comment, the public will regret this action in the long term as they will only read about it in the history books at the local library, which is becoming less common in the face of the internet.\nThe stats are clear in Missouri as well as in the US. The question is, how many bridges, like the truss bridges, can be saved before they are gone forever? Todd Wilson (who presented this) doesn\u2019t know nor does the author, but it could be soon if action is not taken.\nNote: The 2012 Historic Bridge Conference has not been planned yet, but speculation is that either Iowa or Indiana will be the next venue. Indiana has had a history of successful preservation of historic bridges, including the Tripple Whipple Bridge over Laughery Creek in Dearbown County, the only truss bridge in the country that has such a unique design. It also has the Wabash and Erie Canal bike trail where historic bridges can be found on this route, including one of only two Stearns Truss Bridge in the country (the Gilmore Bridge). However in Iowa, there is the historic bridge park at Tiffin near Iowa City (an article will precede this one), bowstring arch bridges throughout the state including Crawford and Winneshiek Counties, and the Kate Shelley Viaduct near Boone, which will turn 100 years old next year. Furthermore, barring any unforeseen circumstances, the Sutliff Bridge in Johnson County may be rebuilt in time for its reopening next summer. The three span Parker through truss bridge lost one of its spans during the 2008 Flood and is currently being rebuilt thanks to support from the county and the Sutliff Bridge Authority. The plan is to have one of the states host the event in 2012 and the other in 2013. If you have a preference for where the 2012 Historic Bridge Conference should be hosted, please contact Jason Smith of the Bridgehunter\u2019s Chronicles at JDSmith77@gmx.net.\nEnjoy the following links and photos below:\nPlatte Purchase and Firfax Bridges in Kansas City: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=52G6MCWokRw\nUS 66 Meramec River Bridge near Wildwood: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cnge9BHOoaM\nEnochs Knob Bridge in Franklin Co.: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lHk9Y7-c-qI\nRed Bridge in Christian Co: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M-6QPgWq8yo\nChain of Rocks Bridge in St. Louis: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Tfp2GKSK8U\nMcKinley Bridge in St. Louis: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UKoorKAmyvw\nEads Bridge in St. Louis: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t8UJ7KvIJM0\nBridge experts and enthusiasts at the US 66 Meramec Crossing west of St. Louis\nA large audience listens to one of the presentations given at the Riverside Bridge Benefit at the Ozark Community Center on 13 August\nA truck crosses the Green Bridge in Christian County as tourists look on.

        "raw_content": "Yes, I met my husband when I was 15 and during the last 40 years (frightening isn\u2019t it!), we\u2019ve shared lots of great, joyful, angry and sad moments along our journey together. There have been moments along the route when we thought we wouldn\u2019t survive as a couple and I\u2019m so glad that we didn\u2019t give up and we managed to cling on by our fingertips, as our relationship, respect and love for each other has grown much stronger as a result.\nHave you got any children?\nWe\u2019ve got two lovely sons and two very gorgeous granddaughters and we\u2019re also lucky to have our sons\u2019 wife and girlfriend in our lives. Weekends and holidays are often spent together as you\u2019ll see on some of the photo\u2019s I\u2019ll share.\nWe\u2019re part of a large extended family of unique and creative characters and they are all important in our lives and have taught me a lot about life and about myself over the years. I hope that I can share some of my learning about relationships with you through my blog posts.\nYes, I\u2019m a Senior Manager in business and have managed large teams covering multiple services for over 15 years. I\u2019ve spent many years learning some amazing techniques which I\u2019ve been able to use myself and also to help others to achieve transformational changes and which have helped me develop fun and high performing teams.\nI qualified over 20 years ago as a Hypnotherapist and am also a qualified trainer and member of the Chartered Institute of Personnel Development (CIPD). More recently I was very fortunate to be sponsored to train with Dr Richard Bandler (Co-founder of NLP) as a Practitioner in Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) which was an amazing experience.\nMy interest in the power of the mind and study of human behaviour continues. Check out my posts under the Career and Personal Development page where I\u2019ll share some top tips and tools and which when used can help to make a massive difference to your life.\nWhat qualifies you to give advice to others?\nI wasted a lot of breath over the years, before I eventually learned that even the most amazing advice often falls on deaf ears! Most people need to be ready to change and to find their own solutions and we often learn our greatest lessons from the mistakes we make.\nHowever, as a qualified Hypnotherapist and NLP Practitioner, I\u2019ve also learned some great systems and techniques, to help make necessary changes in our lives and take positive action toward achieving our goals and start living the life we dream of.\nI\u2019ve found that these techniques have been far more effective and much less frustrating than providing \u2018great advice\u2019 although occasionally, I still slip back into old patterns myself on occasion.. hey I\u2019m human!..\nI love spending time with my family and they\u2019ve recently inspired me to make some significant life changing decisions to support my primary goal of living a great and happy life shared with them for as long as possible.\nI\u2019m still working on it \u2013 it\u2019s a continuous journey and sometimes I move 2 steps forward and 3 steps back or something unexpected comes along which knocks me off course. Fortunately I now recognise this and there\u2019s usually a friend or family member to give me a prod to remind me that \u201cIf at first you don\u2019t succeed, try try try again\u201d \u2013 However, I also know that if something hasn\u2019t worked it\u2019s often better to try a different way next time as \u201cIf you always do what you\u2019ve always done, you\u2019ll always get what you\u2019ve always got\u201d\u2026..\nMy learning journey into the power of the mind continues and has become a key focus in my life over the years and I\u2019ve been able to share my learning to help others make some important changes in their own lives too. I\u2019m so inspired by those people who have listened, learned and taken action to transform their lives!\nRecently though I\u2019ve been inspired by some great blogs and am looking forward to learning about the craft of blogging and sharing posts with you over the coming months, to add a new dimension to my learning journey and hopefully to give you some food for thought too.\nIt would be great to hear back from you so please comment on some of my posts to give me some feedback, tips and suggestions about how I\u2019m doing..",

        "raw_content": "Following the release of their year-end results for 2017, customer-focussed business utilities provider Y\u00fc Energy has mapped out substantial plans for growth for the year ahead. The Midlands-based firm\u2019s financial results demonstrated growth in revenue of nearly 200% over the last year. Their rapid expansion now provides a platform to further consolidate their position as a major challenger within the UK business energy sector.\nRecently, the company has announced an extension of their business utilities offering with the introduction of Y\u00fc Water. This new service offering will be launching with selected customers in Spring 2018 ahead of a national roll out later in the year, after the company gained its Water Supply Licence in late 2017. Alongside that, the team has branched into a new office in the centre of Leicester, offering a further 30 new sales positions. They have also maintained substantial growth within the Nottingham head office, having increased their team from 72 staff in 2016 to 110 at the end of 2017 \u2013 and are still growing.\nThe primary aim of Y\u00fc Energy from the very beginning was to shake-up the business energy market, setting the benchmark for the standards of customer service that business customers deserve.\n\u201cCustomer service has been at the forefront of company growth from the very beginning,\u201d says CEO, Bobby Kalar. \u201cBased on my disappointment with energy offerings as a business owner, I thought that there must be a better way of servicing companies. We always want to ensure that our customer service remains paramount to our offering \u2013 and for our ethos to be scalable as we reach businesses across the UK with our service.\u201d\n\u201cOur people are what sets us apart. Every company boasts years of expertise amongst their staff, but we\u2019re committed to ensuring that this expertise is easily accessible to all of our customers, combined with the personal touch. That\u2019s why we answer the phone within 3 rings and provided dedicated Relationship Managers for our clients. We\u2019re also committed to providing high levels of transparency and fairness. We\u2019re constantly looking for ways to better inform our customers, to help businesses and organisations become more efficient, and showcase exactly how things work within our industry, which isn\u2019t something people often expect within the energy sector. These insights can only ever come from our team.\u201d\nY\u00fc Energy now provides gas and electricity for businesses all over Britain, offering competitive fixed prices, 3-ring call pick up times and a dedicated account manager. As such, the company has seen its customer base grow to over 7,000 businesses; from SMEs to large corporates, making it one of the UK\u2019s fastest growing business energy suppliers. This continuous development has spurred on greater plans for the future. The company is increasing its presence in larger corporate sector of the business energy market.\nBobby Kalar added, \u201cWe believe that our bespoke, personal service allows businesses to concentrate on the actual running of their business. Hence our service is tailored to fulfilling that, in turning helping businesses to thrive in their chosen sector. We service businesses all over the country and with the addition of business water supply we will bring all of these utilities into one transparent, accessible one stop shop.\u201d\nThe Y\u00fc Energy results demonstrate exactly how running a customer-centric, positive business strategy and culture can shape an extremely successful offering. As their offering expands not only across the country, but across the business utility sector, 2018 promises to be another hugely positive year for the company.",

        "raw_content": "Amongst the Volcanos (Patzcuaro)\nAs in most points of view there are several, depending of where the viewer stands. It can be a wide panoramic view or a revealing close up, the bird\u2019s eye or the dark underbelly view. Also there are usually two sides to an issue, two sides of the same coin. In order to do my Mexico impressions justice I need to break them up, into at least two categories: the touristy one, which is for the most part a surface experience, visual and sensual, maybe spiritual, set apart from the culture I drop into, like looking into a house through a window. The second part is more visceral, like being in the house, invited into the peoples lives, listening, watching, participating and seeing their culture through their eyes rather than mine. It\u2019s a more immersed point of view, which has to take into account some unpleasant realities like politics, poverty, inequalities and other limitations.\nParzcuaro is the popular Pueblo Magico, nestled along the shallow lake by the same name amidst the volcanoes in the heart of Michoacan, located on the Tierra Alta Plateau at 2300m in central Mexico. The present town dates back to the 16th century and features the second largest colonial plaza in Mexico. It\u2019s long been a favourite destination of mine, ever since 1984, when I first drove into the town. (in a 1962 Ford Galaxy 2-door hardtop, pulling a tent trailer with both kids (4+5) on a piece of plywood with some blankets and toys in the back seat). Patzcuaro has changed little in the past few centuries, let alone in the past 30 years. More taxis, collectivos (mini vans) and cars clog the cobble stoned streets, and today cappuccinos, pizzas and Internet are available everywhere.\nPosted in Travel Impressions\t| Tagged Mexico, Patzcuaro\t| Leave a reply\nMexico Revisited (Puerto Penasco, Guadalajara, Mexico City, Zihuatenejo)\nPuerto Penasco, or as it is better known, Rocky Point is just a two hour drive south of Ajo, Arizona or can also be reached by a new road from Yuma. It is also referred to as Phoenix\u2019s beach since it is only 4 hours from that 4 million plus city. Puerto Penasco is in the Sonora desert at the northern apex of one of the most fertile bodies of water anywhere: the Sea of Cortez also known as the Gulf of California.\nWe first drove through Rocky Point some 20 years ago and only remember a feast of local shrimp and lobster in a noisy bar perched atop a rocky outcropping and a crowded RV park across the road. Not much else. This time around we were guests of our friends who rented a luxury apartment for a discount price at a sprawling upscale development called Sandy Beach west of the original town and harbour. Up to sixteen stories high, several of those condo developments clustered along the shallow beach, guarded on all sides by security check points with guard shacks and guards armed with walky-talkies and clad in snazzy khaki uniforms. Hundreds of these high end condos built in the past 20 years sprawl along the sandy beach, all equipped with gourmet kitchens, rain showers and flat screen TV\u2019s with several heated pools (replete with pool bars) and hundreds of lounge chairs spread throughout the manicured compounds, surrounded by golf course and dune buggy tracks. Very deluxe and very much affluent Americana and nothing to do with Mexico apart from the soil they are built on. Some of the buildings were abandoned in the 2008 crash waiting patiently for a developer from up north to finish them. I spent most of my week reclining on a lounge chair under an umbrella behind a rope separating the haves from the have-nots, watching the endless parade of local peddlers go by trying to sell anything from a song to a massage, from mangos to jewellery, from hammocks to hats.\nPosted in Travel Impressions\t| Tagged Mexico\t| 1 Reply\nPosted in Short Stories\t| Tagged Mexico, Tinder\t| Leave a reply",

        "raw_content": "The top-to-bottom review of our oppressive approach to regulation will be a big boon for business \u2014 if the Liberals get it right\ninance Minister Bill Morneau holds a press conference in the media lockup for the fall economic update, in Ottawa on Wednesday, Nov. 21, 2018.Sean Kilpatrick/The Canadian Press\nBill Morneau sure is stubborn.\nThe finance minister again passed on an opportunity to announce an overhaul of the tax code, despite overwhelming pressure from academics and business lobbyists to do so. The levy on corporate income? Unchanged. And he apparently could care less about balancing the budget, even though Canada\u2019s economy is long past needing fiscal stimulus.\nThe budget update Morneau tabled in the House of Commons on Nov. 21 shows that the fiscal shortfall was on track to narrow to $9 billion within five years from $19 billion this year. Ottawa decided to use stronger revenue to keep spending: various tax cuts and investments will keep the deficit in double digits through at least 2023, which will be the 30th anniversary of the election of the government of Jean Chr\u00e9tien and Paul Martin, the former Liberal leaders who ended a generation of fiscal profligacy.\n\u201cWe could have ignored the concerns of business leaders, decided not to make the investments and the changes that are part of the Fall Economic Statement, and we would have had a lower deficit as a result,\u201d Morneau said in prepared remarks for the Commons. \u201cTo do so would be neither a rational response, nor a responsible one.\u201d\nOttawa proposes sweeping review of Canada\u2019s regulatory regime to consider \u2018efficiency and economic growth\u2019\nFour things you might have missed in the federal government\u2019s 2018 fall fiscal update\nHighlights of Finance Minister Bill Morneau\u2019s fall fiscal update\nSo still plenty to grumble about when it comes to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau\u2019s handling of the economy. Yet, much of the complaining will be done by the opposition politicians, academics, economists and lobbyists who attach a high value to balanced budgets and low income taxes.\nActual wealth creators \u2014 the entrepreneurs and executives who hire and invest in pursuit of profit \u2014 will be blown away by Morneau\u2019s update, which includes a promise so audacious that it might be unCanadian: a top-to-bottom review of the country\u2019s oppressive approach to regulation.\nThe autumn budget update had been framed as the Trudeau government\u2019s response to U.S. President Donald Trump\u2019s tax cuts, which erased a comparative advantage that Canada had long enjoyed over its much larger rival. The two countries now tax corporate profits at roughly the same rate, meaning a company that does business in North America probably is better off setting up in the country with the most consumers.\nMorneau said he would tweak the way Canada taxes new capital investments, including intangibles such as patents, which could offset some of the Trump effect. But the Canada Revenue Agency\u2019s treatment of profits will remain unchanged, mostly because the federal government can\u2019t afford to forgo the revenue, according to the finance minister. \u201cSome have lobbied us to match those measures,\u201d Morneau said the U.S. tax cuts. \u201cIf we were to do that, it would add tens of billions in new debt.\u201d\nThe U.S. has re-established itself as the world\u2019s economic engine over the past year, aided by those tax cuts, which jolted profits and hiring and excited equity investors, at least until recently. Less discussed is the effect of Trump\u2019s commitment to deregulation, which might be having a bigger effect on animal spirits than the tax cuts, according to anecdotal evidence and some close observers of the North American economy. If that\u2019s true, it\u2019s easy to imagine the attraction for a finance minister who already is living beyond his means: free stimulus.\nWe won\u2019t call it deregulation, of course. Morneau\u2019s update stresses that the government will \u201ccontinue to ensure Canada\u2019s regulatory system protects first and foremost the health and safety of Canadians.\u201d\nBut deregulation is what the government has on its mind. Public servants will be ordered to consider the economic impact of the rule books they manage, and the Trudeau government said it will introduce legislation that would require annual reviews of federal regulations. The finance minister also pledged an advisory committee to keep the government current on how regulations might be hurting Canadian companies and about $11 million to create an agency that will ensure regulators and the regulated talk to each other.\nTax cuts might jolt investment, although they would need to be big to restore the advantage Canada once had. Instead, Morneau offered a few new tax breaks on investment that Finance said ensure Canada remains one of the best places to deploy capital. That could be enough, as it was unclear whether the Trump effect was causing serious harm.\nWhile some of Canada\u2019s bankers have talked of \u201ccapital flight,\u201d Louis Vachon, the head of National Bank, told me in an interview earlier this month that he wasn\u2019t seeing it. The debate about Canadian competitiveness needed more \u201cbalance,\u201d he said, noting that the \u201cnon-permit economy\u201d \u2014 technology companies, service providers, etc. \u2014 was \u201cdoing very well,\u201d while the \u201cpermit economy\u201d was struggling because of delays and regulatory uncertainty. \u201cThese issues need to be discussed,\u201d he said.\nRemarkably, Ottawa appears willing to discuss them. The Opposition will go after Morneau over the deficit and taxes. If it wants to help Canadian companies, it will ensure that Trudeau and his finance minister make good on deregulation. Execution isn\u2019t a strength of this government. Let\u2019s hope they get this one right.",

But, they said, the pumping is likely to continue given a confluence of factors that range from urban population growth to an expanding agricultural industry.\nTags: Agriculture, Drought, Water\nPosted in Climate Change, Food, Natural Disasters\nAsia\u2019s love of nuts is draining California dry.\nAmid one of the worst droughts in the state\u2019s history, farmers are scrambling to find enough water to irrigate lucrative almond trees they planted after abandoning other, less thirsty crops.\nWhy\u2019s there such a market for California nuts?

In November, I worked as the dramaturg for \u201cLife Is a Dream,\u201d the theater department show at Conn. I came on board in September. Most of the work I did early on was independent research, but I went to some early rehearsals when I was able to go. The show was written by Pedro Calderon de la Barca in 1635, the Spanish Golden Age. My initial research about the time period uncovered themes that were also present in the production\u2013the basic themes of which involve religious ideals, honor and the role of women.\nLater, I began to go to some rehearsals that involved the full cast to see what the actors were doing and to give comments. I also attended the FLAC (Foreign Languages Across the Curriculum) sections of the course, which incorporated Spanish into the production with the help of professor Luis Gonz\u00e1lez from the Hispanic Studies department. Having a professor who had a new perspective on the show was helpful both to me and the cast. I was able to meet with him to get more ideas and feedback on the work I was doing.\nI also shared some of the work with the cast members to help them better understand the world of the play and other themes while they shared nuances of the characters and plot with me. I learned a lot more about the show and the Spanish Golden Age then I would have otherwise. Lastly, I worked on the lobby display area of Tansil Theater, the black box theater on campus. I selected a few paintings from the time period to get the audience into the world of the show. For the performance, I wrote up a short pamphlet about the show to give audience members a peek into my research and explain some of my choices.\nFollowing the show, a number of people reached out and told me that they really appreciated what I wrote and that it helped them understand the play better, which was exactly what I hoped would happen. I realized that being a dramaturg was the part of theater that I was not getting from acting alone, and while I enjoy acting, working as a dramaturg allowed me to explore more of the world of the play than ever before.",

At the rear, it appears Audi will connect the split taillights with a single strip, which will be a first for the executive limousine, and while the visual tweaks are minor, there should be some bigger changes made under the skin.\nThe current TFSI (gasoline) and TDI (diesel) engines are expected to carry over largely intact, however possible additions include a plug-in hybrid model using the same tech as the Porsche Panamera S E-Hybrid, which debuted this weekend at the Shanghai Motor Show, and a high-performance range-topper in the form of new S8 (and possibly even an RS8) that would rival the Mercedes S63 AMG, just as the facelifted A8 will challenge the new S-Class. The luxury saloon will also benefit from a host of state-of-the-art gadgets including an updated infotainment system and the latest version of Audi Connect internet services.\nIt may be due for replacement soon, but the Audi A8\u2019s still accomplished enough to be one of the better luxury sedans on the market.\n2019 Audi A8 First Drive Review: The New Lord Of The Rings\nThe all-new Audi A8 has become the complete luxury sedan.",

        "raw_content": "New Caterham Seven Supersport Aims for Enthusiasts\nby Matthew Wilson Caterham\nCaterham has just announced a new addition to the Seven model series. Called the Seven Supersport, the new car is derived from the race version that competes in the Caterham Supersport Championship. With race track tuned influences, the street legal Supersport is powered by a four-cylinder 1.6-liter Ford Sigma engine that produces 140 hp and 120 lb-ft of torque. It&apos;s mated to a five-speed manual transmission (a six-speed is optional) and weighs just 1,145 pounds.\nThe new edition can go from 0 to 60 mph in 4.9 seconds and has a top speed of 120 mph. The car&apos;s suspension featured upgraded springs and dampers taken from the race version along with stiffer anti-roll bars and a lightweight flywheel. Riding on 13-inch wheels, the car&apos;s interior features a dash with integrated change up lights, aero screen, composite race seats, and a four-point harness instead of the standard seatbelts. Like all other Caterhams, the new Supersport is available for purchase as either a factory-built model or in component form for those daring enough to construct it themselves.\nPricing for the factory car starts at \u00a322,995 ($37,585) and \u00a319,995 ($32,680)for the kit. Both USD figures are according to current exchange rates.\nTags: #Caterham #Caterham",

Not many people focus on why an employer should have an apprentice instead of hiring a fully qualified member of staff.\nThe aim of this post is not to discourage people from hiring, when most of the country is unemployed, it is to encourage employers to invest in their future and look towards an apprenticeship.\nThe whole point of an apprenticeship is to give the apprentice on the job training that will eventually end with them being able to put the experience on their CV, or end up with a job.\nNow, let\u2019s look at this from the perspective of the employer. The employer will pay the apprentice\u2019s salary, but it will be a lot less than a regular employee. An apprentice will be paid an annual salary of a little over \u00a35000 per year.\nThen, the employer will be given a chance nurture the apprentice and train them in ways that are important to the company. The employer will be able to focus the training so that the apprentice could have a long-term future with the company.\nOn a personal note, the employer will be able to take an interest in the apprentice. They could follow the progress of the apprentice and know how much work the apprentice has put into their career.\nThe employer has the ability to see if the apprentice has the attitude and drive to start his or her own career. The apprentice will have to invest time in developing their own skills so that they can progress to the next step of their career. The employer should think of themselves as the mentors and the apprentice as the future employee of the year.\nFind apprenticeships at Careermap\nNeed help hiring apprentices in your business?

        "raw_content": "What does Europe expect from the next US administration?\nInevitably the prospect of a new US administration has global implications. Given the new international environment (i.e. terrorism, Iraq, the tense US-Iran relations, ethnic conflicts and in particular the recent developments in the Caucasus, the international socioeconomic crisis), the world paid greater attention to this presidential election.\nBarrack Obama\u2019s triumph opens a new chapter in American and world history. Historically ethnonationalist considerations played an important role in national and international politics. And they will continue to do so. Obama\u2019s victory, however, signifies the triumph of politics over ethnonational and ethnoracial pillars and considerations. This is a most promising development.\nThe EU expects a new beginning in its relations with the US and a new, joint vision. In our globalized world, challenges such as the environment, terrorism, socioeconomic instability and ethnic conflict, require multilateral and collective approaches. \u03a4he new US administration is expected to embark on a new approach leaving behind its deadlocked unilateralism. This new approach in Euro-Atlantic relations should begin with closer consultation between the two sides before serious decisions are made. For the effective implementation of this process it will, however, become increasingly necessary for the EU to speak with one voice.\nThe US could also reassess its approach toward the Middle East given that this region may generate further destabilization. The prevailing perception is that US policy in the area is not even handed. And the strong anti-American feelings tend to, over time, also become anti-Western feelings. The implication is that Europe tends to share the costs of such perceptions. Already President\u2013elect Obama has indicated that US strategy in the broader region should be reevaluated. If this is also associated with constructive cooperation between the US and the EU it will lead to fruitful results.\nThere is another issue of great significance. In various ethnic conflicts the positions adopted by many members of the UN Security Council are not consistent. For example, the US called for the respect of the territorial integrity of Georgia while in the case of Kosovo its policy had/has been contradictory. Russia\u2019s policies in relation to Kosovo and the two provinces in Georgia, S. Ossetia and Abkhazia, are contradictory too. And there is no consistency in relation to Turkey\u2019s policy over Cyprus and its own Kurdish minority as well as the Kurds in northern Iraq.\nOutside the EU-US relations, Cyprus' bilateral relations with the US are satisfactory with cooperation in counter-terrorism, overall law enforcement and increasing trade. The US acknowledged Cyprus' role and humanitarian assistance during the Lebanon crisis of 2006. But the defining aspect of the relationship in the US' position on the Cyprus problem, a position seen in Nicosia as shaped not by the US' adherence to the principles and values it espouses but by its traditional strategic relations with Turkey. Would President Obama make a difference?\nWe need a new approach. The regional and the global challenges necessitate a credible and effective UN which itself requires restructuring and a redefinition of its role to suit the new world order. The US must take an initiative toward this direction. Even before the elections several leading personalities \u2013 including from Republican quarters \u2013 had advocated that principles should be re-incorporated into American foreign policy. President-elect Obama will have a rare opportunity to make a new start for the US in a world that is eager for a principled leadership and for collective solutions.\nchristoforos.c\t2017-08-29T08:02:07+00:00\tNovember 21st, 2008|Latest|0 Comments",

        "title": "59 Hypocrisy | cfcindia, Bangalore",
        "raw_content": "Transcript of 59 Hypocrisy\nWhat are the sins that Jesus hated the most? When we see sin like sickness, even more serious than sickness, we will learn to hate it more than we hate sickness. Jesus came to reveal the serious sins that ruin our life.\nWe want to start with the first chapter of Matthew's gospel, the very first book of the New Testament and the very first page. Matthew 1:21 gives the reason why Jesus was called Jesus when He was born as baby. \"You shall call His name Jesus because He will save His people from their sins.\" The word 'Jesus' means saviour; One who has come to save us from our sins. So, if you want to know what it is to be saved from sin, you need to know what sin is. In the minds of many, many people, sin is a very vague concept; it is not clear what sin is. If you were told that you are being saved from leprosy or saved from tuberculosis, or saved from a pit in which you have fallen, or saved from failure in an examination, you understand what it means to 'save'. These things are clearly understood.\nBut when you say saved from sin, what do you understand? That depends on your definition of sin. If you think sin is just getting drunk, or gambling, or wasting your money and fooling around with other women and things like that, and if you don't do those gross sins, you will think that you are saved. You know, if you go by the Ten Commandments where there are gross sins like murder, adultery, theft, giving false witness in court to injure another person, and things like that, I think most people in the world could say, 'Well, we are not committing those type of things. We don't need salvation.' If those are the only things that are sins, a lot of people don't need Jesus at all. But when we read the gospels, we find that Jesus spoke about certain other sins which are not listed in the Ten Commandments at all.\nSo when we see the teaching of Jesus, we find that sin is not primarily external. I mean a mango tree is a mango tree even if it doesn't produce mangoes. It may be barren but it is still a mango tree. When it produces, it will produce mangoes. It won't produce apples or coconuts. In the same way sin is like a tree. Whether the fruit of it comes out of our life or not, doesn't make a difference. Sin is still there within, it is in the heart. Jesus said it is from the heart that everything comes out; evil thoughts, murders, and adultery and everything like that. That is why Jesus spoke about sin in the heart and to deal with it there, rather than after it has come forth. When we look at the overall teaching of Jesus, we find that there are certain sins which He spoke against which men don't consider seriously. In Isaiah 55:8-9 God said, \"My thoughts are not your thoughts.\" That applies in many areas.\nGod's thoughts about sin are different from man's thoughts about sin. Man doesn't take sin so seriously. Man thinks sin is only in these external things. But God says there are a lot of other things, which are sins. And number one among them would be hypocrisy. Now in the Old Testament, you hardly ever find a condemnation of hypocrisy. It is very rare. The prophets mostly spoke against adultery, worshipping of idols, greed, covetousness, etc. These are some of the main sins they spoke about. But when Jesus came, though He spoke about these things also, He spoke much more about hypocrisy. In fact when a woman caught in adultery was brought before Him, He didn't even want to stone her. He saved her life. There was a thief, a dacoit and possibly a murderer who hung with Him on the cross, He forgave him, and took him to paradise. But when He met religious leaders; the elders, the bishops of the synagogues of that time - the Pharisees and the scribes, He condemned them outright, because they were hypocrites.\nHe kept on saying, for example, in Matthew 23, \"Woe unto you hypocrites.\" Woe means curse, like in the Old Testament we read \"Curse be upon you\". So, Jesus was saying, 'Curse be upon you scribes - Bible scholars and Pharisees, who were the religious leaders at that time, who studied in the Bible schools and had become elders in the synagogues, hypocrites.' We see this repeatedly said by Jesus in verses 13, 14, 15, 23, 25, 27, and 29. So frequently He condemns them for their hypocrisy. And finally, He calls them serpents, a brood of vipers, how will they escape the sentence of hell in verse 33.\nYou never find Jesus speaking like that to a prostitute or to a murderer. But you find Jesus speaking like that to most of the religious people of His time who read the Bible - Genesis to Malachi every day, and who were very devout in their external piety. So we can see how much Jesus hated hypocrisy, more than anything else. This was what He sought to condemn. The reason was, Jesus said in Mark 7:6 that rightly did Isaiah prophecy of you hypocrites, as it is written there: \"This people honour me with their lips but their heart is far away from me.\" What was it that Jesus detested? It was their saying so many wonderful things to Him with their lips but their heart was far away from Him. They appeared to be devoted to the Lord. But in their heart they were interested in themselves; their money and their other things. They were seeking their own gain everywhere, but pretending to be holy. What did the prostitutes, the thieves, and the murderers have better than the Pharisees? Not in external life, but the fact that they were honest. They were murderers and they didn't pretend that they were not. The prostitute acknowledged that she was a prostitute. She wasn't pretending to be holy.\nSo we find that Jesus hated pretence; words spoken with the lips, holy words, when we pray; words that make us appear holy and very humble. It can be a total lie. To be a hypocrite is to be a liar. It is to give an impression to people of being spiritual when you are not really spiritual. You know, one of the first sins that children learn and commit is the sin of telling a lie. They don't commit murder or adultery and things like that first, it is telling a lie from birth. Right from their earliest years they begin to tell lies, they begin to deceive their parents. And as we grow up, we develop this art of deceiving others, of giving people an impression about ourselves, which is not really true, fooling them. Then if you become a Christian, you develop that still more by trying to give people the impression that you are very spiritual in order to impress them. And that is the sin the Lord hates most, more than anything else.\nRemember the story that Jesus said about ten virgins who went to meet the bridegroom. What was the difference? Externally they were all virgins. That means the external life of all ten was good. They wore the same white dress, they all went to meet the bridegroom, and there was no difference as far as those things are concerned. They were exactly the same. But there was a lot of difference inside. Inside, maybe the pockets of one of those cloaks, five of them had oil, extra oil to fill up the lamps when they started dying out. Initially all ten had their lamps burning. But when their lamps started dying out, we read that five of them only had oil. What does this parable teach us? This parable teaches us that an external life alone does not prepare us for meeting the Lord when He comes. We must have a hidden life as well. That is what the flask of oil symbolizes - a hidden life of our walk with God. That oil symbolizes the Holy Spirit and inner life where we are walking with God, where our love for the Lord is clear, pure, and whole-hearted, in addition to the lamp burning. So it is not enough to be a virgin - to have your external life right. Those five virgins were left out when the bridegroom came, just because they did not have that inner flask of oil.\nSo what was Jesus emphasizing here? If you are a hypocrite, you are going to miss out when the Lord comes. The first sin that was judged in the early church, what was it? Ananias and Sapphira were punished not for murder, or adultery or anything like that. It was hypocrisy - pretending to be spiritual when they were not really spiritual. That is a lesson for us. Ananias and Sapphira didn't cheat anybody, they didn't harm anyone, but they came to the church pretending that they were totally dedicated to the Lord, when they were actually not. Do you realize how much Jesus hates this? They were killed. Let us learn from this, that hypocrisy is what Jesus hates more than anything else.",

The awkward, uncomfortable moment when you confess your secret fetish, hoping that she won't be completely creeped out. As I reluctantly told my wife about my desire to buy and wear a cock cage, she seemed somewhat open to it, albeit cautiously.\nI took the liberty of buying a couple of cages online (one plastic, the other metal) along with one of those self-published keyholder guides. When they arrived, she had me go through the book and highlight the specific stuff that appealed to me, which certainly wasn't everything; within the world of male chastity, I'm actually pretty vanilla in my tastes.\nSince then, though, the cage has only played into our sex life once, for about an hour. Of course, it was one of the hottest hours of my life, but it still wasn't very long. She seemed to enjoy it, but hasn't been eager to incorporate it into our general sex life.\nI haven't really brought it up since then, worried that she just isn't into it and that she'll think of me as some kind of freak if I am too insistent on it. As I stated elsewhere on this board, I don't want to be too forceful about my fetishes, especially considering that she doesn't really seem to have any of her own. Marriage is a partnership and it's important that both parties feel comfortable. And, hey, regular ol' sex is nothing to complain about.\nBut after ten years of marriage, I'm excited to change things up a little bit.\nI may try to bring it up again in the next week or two, but so far my venture into the world of male chastity has not yielded much.\n[curiouscaged] An Embarrassing Admission\nPost by curiouscaged \u00bb Thu Nov 30, 2017 4:42 pm\nIn a previous journal post, I mentioned that my wife and I have only used my cage once. But I have been using it myself here and there pretty consistently since I got it (for example, I'm wearing it right now!), usually when my wife is out of the house for long periods of time (for some reason, I don't want her to discover that I'm wearing it on my own).\nAnyway, I have found that when I wear it for a while, and then take it off, the next time I have sex or jerk off, I tend to finish incredibly fast. I never lasted super long in the first place, but being locked up and then freed makes me so sensitive that I really can't hold back for longer than ten, maybe twenty, seconds.\nThis was indeed the case the one time that my wife and I used the cage, and I wonder if maybe that's why she's been reluctant to use it since then. I'm not really sure.\nHas this been an issue for any of you, as well? Is it par for the course? Please let me know. Thanks.\nRe: [curiouscaged] An Embarrassing Admission\nPost by slave d \u00bb Thu Nov 30, 2017 11:45 pm\ni certainly find this particularly as i\u2019m caged 24/7 and by the time it is removed MsM can milk me in a few strokes. Personally i like this as it adds to my small penis humiliation as MsM can say \u201csee how useless You are to me, a tiny cock i wouldn\u2019t even feel and you last only seconds anyway\u201d. i love that She then uses a big dildo to satisfy Herself and then suggests She might want a real Big virile, long lasting cock. That plays into my favourite cuckolding fantasy.\nTullyboy\nPost by Tullyboy \u00bb Fri Dec 01, 2017 8:29 am\nI feel like I always need to start with, \u201cI\u2019m new, too.\u201d But I\u2019m not new to having our sex life dominated by my wife; in fact, I\u2019m a bit of an expert at that. So yes, I have a hair trigger, also. If I\u2019m allowed out of my cage there are generally two scenarios. 1. She gets attention ending in orgasm(s) first and then we worry about me. 2. She isn\u2019t particularly interested in an orgasm and wants to pay attention to me. Option 2 doesn\u2019t usually take long once penetration occurs, so we try to have a nice bit of foreplay before.\nThere is an alternative to #1 that we\u2019ve used before. She put delay cream on me and then covered me with a condom. We were able to make love but I was not able to cum. If you use your imagination there are other options as well (like milking first and then using a cock ring to keep you hard).\nPost by slave d \u00bb Fri Dec 01, 2017 4:39 pm\nThe main difference i have to you is that i\u2019m not allowed PIV now at all !! Well that\u2019s not entirely true, i have been allowed just to put it in and take it out again after MsM has had Her playtime with Her Buck (dildo) but that\u2019s just to increase my frustration as i am teased and denied ............. again !!\nRe: [curiouscaged] Going It Alone\nPost by curiouscaged1 \u00bb Fri Dec 08, 2017 4:11 am\nSo I\u2019m still in a place where I haven\u2019t picked up the topic of chastity with my wife. We\u2019re not in a great place right now, so to bring up such a dicey subject might make things a little worse.\nWe have started going to a marriage counselor, though, and we\u2019re both optimistic about how things will look in a few weeks. We\u2019ve already both clearly stated that divorce is not an option, so we\u2019re going to have to work things out, no matter what.\nIn the meantime, I continue to wear my device (CB6000) on my own. Usually it\u2019s only for a couple hours here and there, and never when my wife might find out.\nEven right now, I\u2019m at an all night coffee shop, and I\u2019m all locked up. It\u2019s so exciting. First, it\u2019s very arousing to have a secret right in the middle of a public space; a secret nobody could guess.\nBut also I find that it\u2019s just very comfortable. Everything feels very snug and secure down there. Putting arousal aside, I find wearing it just makes me feel better; more relaxed.\nSo right now I\u2019m doing the chastity thing alone, but I\u2019m still enjoying it. And in fact my enjoyment is deepening.\nI genuinely love being locked up.\nRe: [curiouscaged] When To Quit\nPost by curiouscaged1 \u00bb Sat Dec 09, 2017 7:08 pm\nI\u2019m still pretty far from this point, as my wife and I haven\u2019t talked about chastity in a while (we\u2019ve got other issues to deal with first). But I was curious to know at what point I should just give up on the idea of chastity being a somewhat consistent part of our sex life. I don\u2019t want to be insistent, but I also don\u2019t want to give up too easily.\nRe: [curiouscaged] A Rocky Start\nPost by TwistedMister \u00bb Sun Dec 10, 2017 9:47 am\nI would say, \"Don't give up\"...but, you may have to put it on the 'back burner' for a while. It has been my experience that sexual topics in general, and 'unusual' items in particular, are not likely to be well received if there are other issues prominent.\nWorking on the other issues first is probably a better strategy. 'Chastity' (particularly that of the device-enforced nature with her holding the key), as it involves a spouse/SO typically requires at least *some* transfer of 'power' and 'submission' to her will. Perhaps, if you shape your mind to the idea of 'submission' it will help you to better understand her wants and needs and enable you to to see things more from her point of view. By keeping this idea of 'submission' in mind and linking it with 'chastity' (in your own mind, not mentioning it to her)[1] you may be able to use this mode of perception to assist you in resolving the other issues. If she is not happy due to other issues, she is not going to be receptive to much of anything of a sexual nature.\n[1] This is not 'deceit'. You are merely attempting to alter your own way of thinking, she doesn't *need* to know, and probably doesn't *want* to know the what, how and why of it. The important thing is the results that are beneficial to her and you.\nWhat TwistedMister said. TM reiterates some things that many of us have discovered. i.e.\nTwistedMister wrote: Working on the other issues first is probably a better strategy.... Perhaps, if you shape your mind to the idea of 'submission' it will help you to better understand her wants and needs and enable you to to see things more from her point of view.

I do not think KH is consciously aware of the correlation of my (our) practicing chastity and the paradigm shift in my thinking and actions. Doesn't matter! What matters is, it is working. Well. Very well.\nRe: [curiouscaged] A Good First Step\nHey, everybody. So I talked to my wife today and told her that I had been wearing my chastity device on my own here and there over the last week or so. I emphasized the comfort and cozy quality of having it on. She compared it to one of those weighted blankets that calm people down, which I thought was a good analogy.\nEssentially I said that I was telling her so that, if she happened to hug me and feel it, she wouldn't be surprised. She seemed very open to it and wasn't creeped out at all.\nI'm very encouraged.",

On the All-Star stage for the first time Tuesday, he ripped a home run to left off Blue Jays lefty Blake Snell on the first pitch of his first at-bat. It got the National League on the board in a wild 8-6 victory for the American League that featured a game-record 10 long balls.\nFormer A\u2019s catcher Terry Steinbach was the only other player to homer in his first career at-bat and his first All-Star at-bat, according to state guru Chris Kamka.\n\u201cI think I\u2019m really blessed in these kind of situations. These moments are going to be history and they\u2019re going to be in my mind and my heart.\nWillson Contreras celebrates his All-Star home run. (AP/Susan Walsh)\nContreras didn\u2019t spoil a chance to enjoy a trip around the bases. He slowed down rounding third, put it in low gear and pointed with both hands to the sky, giving thanks to God and honoring his grandfather, Ernesto Contreras, who died in 2015. All the while, teammate Javy Baez, the next batter, was waiting for him at home plate.\n\u201cI wanted to enjoy the moment,\u201d he said. \u201cYou don\u2019t hit homers every day, especially in these kinds of All-Star Games.\u201d\nThere was nearly another vintage Contreras moment in the fourth. Contreras fired a snap throw to first in an attempt to pick off Yankees star Aaron Judge. But the mountainous Judge dove in just ahead of Braves first baseman Freddie Freeman\u2019s tag.\n\u201cDistrict of Contreras,\u201d the Cubs tweeted from their official team account after his homer.\nWhat was Contreras thinking as he rounded the bases?\n\u201cI just said, \u2018I did it.

        "raw_content": "Do we really grasp the kingdom of God? Jesus taught us in the Lord\u2019s Prayer to ask, \u201cThy kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.\u201d Matthew 6:33 declares, \u201cBut seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.\u201dI believe the kingdom of God certainly has a future aspect in which it refers to Christ\u2019s return and His earthly kingdom. I believe it also references His eternal kingdom in which God will reign for all of eternity. There is also a present aspect of the kingdom of God in which we are invited to be participants even now. It is unlike earthly kingdoms. It is not a visible kingdom in which we can observe. Luke writes, \u201cNow when He was asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God would come, He answered them and said, \u201cThe kingdom of God does not come with observation; nor will they say, \u2018See here!\u2019 or \u2018See there!\u2019 For indeed, the kingdom of God is within you\u201d (Luke 17:20-21). The kingdom of God can only be \u201cseen\u201d when we participate through a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. Earthly kingdoms can be observed without participation, not so with God\u2019s kingdom. In fact, the kingdom of God is contrary to conventional wisdom. Not only can it not be \u201cseen,\u201d it conflicts with the world\u2019s systems. Consider how these passages conflict with the world\u2026\n\u201cHe who finds his life will lose it, and he who loses his life for My sake will find it.\u201d Matt. 10:39\n\u201cSo the last will be first, and the first last.\u201d Matt. 20:16\n\u201cBut he who is greatest among you shall be your servant.\u201d Matt. 23:11\n\u201cAnd having been set free from sin, you became slaves of righteousness.\u201d Rom. 6:18\n\u201cUnless a grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it produces much grain.\u201d John 12:24\n\u201cLet nothing be done through selfish ambition or conceit, but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than himself.\u201d Phil. 2:3\nAs Christians, we have been called to seek first the kingdom of God, but often we seek to build our own kingdoms. If believers simply began to seek the kingdom of God and His will in our lives, we could truly begin to see another \u201cgreat awakening.\u201d Imagine the impact of kingdom living. When I consider the commonalities of these passages, it reminds me of the fundamental characteristics of a disciple: sacrificial, relational, and transformational.\nWe must continue to proclaim the Gospel to the world and to ourselves (i.e. Christians)! Should we (Christians) begin to the think of \u201cthe Gospel\u201d as something only for the lost, we may become complacent and neglect to seek the kingdom of God in our daily living. I must be reminded that I need to be renewed in the spirit of my mind (cf. Eph. 4:23). Kingdom living, truly requires a change in how we think\u2026 \u201cAnd do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God\u201d Romans 12:2.",

        "raw_content": "Lord\u2019s Supper Article \u2013 Revised\nThose who visit our church will notice quickly two aspects of our meetings that one might call \u201cnon-typical.\u201d First, we meet in homes rather than in a church building. Second, we eat a full meal together every Sunday. Our practice of meeting in homes is discussed elsewhere, so we\u2019ll not address that in detail here. This short article describes why we put so much emphasis on eating our Sunday meals together, and what those meals mean to us.\nWhen we eat together on Sundays, usually in the evening, it is not because our meeting just happens to coincide with suppertime. We intentionally schedule our meeting around suppertime (or sometimes lunchtime, or even breakfast on occasion). For Christians, eating a meal together during their regular weekly gathering is a way of participating in a special, meaningful time of fellowship with each other and with Christ. That is why Paul refers to this weekly meal as \u201cthe Lord\u2019s Supper\u201d (1 Cor. 11:20).\nOur meals involve many kinds of \u201cpotluck\u201d food, and each member makes every effort to provide plenty to share with everyone else. But one part of the meal, though not as typical in our western society, is also provided due to its special significance for Christians: a loaf of bread and a cup or pitcher of grape juice. Bread and wine, common elements of the Jewish Passover meal and of many Mediterranean meals, were assigned a special significance by Christ when He referred to them as representing His \u201cbody\u201d and \u201cblood\u201d (Luke 22:19-20). Because Christ did this, and because the early church seemed to follow this pattern by also assigning special significance to \u201cthe cup of blessing\u201d and \u201cthe bread that we break\u201d (1 Cor. 10:16), we do the same by including bread and grape juice (lit. \u201cthe produce of the vine,\u201d Matt. 26:29; Mark 14:25; Luke 22:18) in our meals.[1] They serve as visible, tangible symbols of Christ\u2019s sacrificial death on the cross and of Him being spiritual food and drink for believers (John 6:26-35, 52-59; 1 Cor. 10:17). By eating this meal together with the church\u2014the body of people sharing life together as those redeemed by Christ\u2019s sacrificial death\u2014we participate in fellowship with each other and with Christ Himself. Also in connection with the Lord\u2019s Supper as a full, festive, fellowship meal, these elements encourage us as we look forward to His return and to the glorious wedding banquet all true believers will enjoy with Him at that time (Matt. 26:29; Luke 22:16; Rev. 19:9). By sitting around tables, or around a living room, while sharing this meal with these symbolic elements each week in love and unity, we \u201cproclaim the Lord\u2019s death until He comes\u201d (1 Cor. 11:26).\nPaul said in 1 Corinthians 10:17, \u201cBecause there is one bread [i.e., Christ], we who are many are one body, for we all partake of the one bread.\u201d Paul was not physically with the Corinthians when he wrote this (he was writing from Ephesus), yet he seemingly included himself and all other true believers as part of the \u201cmany\u201d who are \u201cone body\u201d partaking of \u201cthe one bread.\u201d Because of this, and because there are examples in the New Testament of visiting Christians being included in the fellowship of a local church (e.g., Acts 20:1-12; Rom. 16:1-2), we welcome all who are part of the body of Christ (i.e., all true believers) to eat the Lord\u2019s Supper with us when visiting our church.\nCertainly there will often be non-Christians in our meetings (e.g., unconverted children of members, guests who are interested in learning about Christ, etc.). They too are welcome to eat with us. However, due to the special significance of the symbolic loaf of bread and the special cup we share as believers, we ask that non-Christians refrain from participating in this aspect of the meal. Sometimes this will mean non-Christians observing as those who are Christians partake of these elements together. Other times non-Christians will simply bypass these elements as they fill their plates with other kinds of food. We appreciate everyone\u2019s understanding and cooperation here, because the precious meaning of these symbols can easily become blurred, confusing or even irrelevant if no distinction is made.\nOne category of person who is not welcome to partake of our meal is the person who is currently under church discipline, having been expelled from any true Christian fellowship due to gross or habitual sins or heretical beliefs. We are not permitted to have fellowship with such \u201cso-called Christians\u201d because their lifestyles and/or beliefs make them indistinguishable from the rest of the world or from those adhering to non-Christian religious groups. As Paul said in 1 Corinthians 5, we are \u201cnot even to eat with such a one\u201d (v. 11). Professing Christians in this category will not merely be excluded from sharing the bread and the cup or from eating the Lord\u2019s Supper with us. They will not be welcome to attend our meetings.\nOne final admonition needs to be given concerning participation in the Lord\u2019s Supper. It relates to professing Christians who are behaving in ways that reveal, or could lead to, divisions in the church. Many of the Corinthian Christians were maintaining distinctions between themselves and other believers. These divisions likely involved separations due to social status or levels of income. Because they were failing to treat all who were in Christ as equals, the meal they were eating when they came together as a church was anything but \u201ceaten together.\u201d Instead, they magnified their separation by not welcoming each other through sharing their food and fellowshipping as one body. They were all in the same place, thus giving the appearance of being one body, but in reality they were divided rather than unified.\nIn addressing these misbehaving believers, Paul issues a strong rebuke (1 Cor. 11:17-22), followed by this warning:\nWhoever therefore, eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of profaning the body and blood of the Lord. Let a person examine himself, then, and so eat of the bread and drink of the cup. For anyone who eats and drinks without discerning the body eats and drinks judgment on himself. That is why many of you are weak and ill, and some have died. But if we judged ourselves truly, we would not be judged. (1Cor.11:27-31)\nPaul\u2019s warning is strong: those who give the appearance of being a part of the body by coming together and eating this meal, but who are in truth causing or promoting division in the church through their selfish actions, are exposing themselves to God\u2019s judgment. They are eating \u201cin an unworthy manner,\u201d which means in a manner that does not correspond to the sacrificial nature of Christ\u2019s death, which Paul had just highlighted. His warning was not intended to turn this festive, fellowship meal into a somber time of self-examination as all present hung their heads, trying to think of any unconfessed sins or personal shortcomings. It was rather a warning for self-seeking individuals or groups of believers (i.e., cliques) not to \u201cdespise the church of God\u201d (11:22) by treating themselves as more important than others. God will judge such people, possibly even through sickness or death! (1 Cor. 11:29-31).\nIn summary, the Lord\u2019s Supper is a full, fellowship meal that Christians share together when they gather for their weekly meeting. The meal includes the commemorative elements of bread and grape juice, which represent the body and blood of Christ. When the various congregations of Christ Fellowship gather for their weekly meetings, all who are present, and who are true followers of Jesus Christ, are welcome to participate fully. Non-Christians who are interested in learning about Christ are welcome to attend and eat with us as observers, though we ask them to refrain from partaking of the symbolic elements of bread and grape juice. Professing Christians who are thinking or behaving in ways that would tend to produce or promote division in the church are warned to examine themselves and repent before God (even, if necessary, making amends with an offended brother or sister at that very moment), and then to partake humbly and joyfully as true members of the body of Christ.\nWe invite anyone who reads this article and is interested to know more about what it means to be a true Christian to contact one of our members or elders.\n[1] We believe grape juice serves the same symbolic purpose as wine, both being \u201cthe produce of the vine.\u201d\nWe are including the link to an article by Steve Atkerson on the Lord\u2019s Supper that the elders of CF appreciate. We hope you will read it to get added depth of understanding about the Lord\u2019s Supper. Christ Fellowship has not necessarily endorsed every position of the paper, but believe it is significant value. Click here to read the article.",

        "raw_content": "Chasing the Dream: The Pros and Cons of Professional Swimming\nAugust 3, 2015 August 3, 2015 Rick Madge\nProfessional team sports are known for their incredibly high-paid stars. Just look at the money thrown at the top names in the big team sports, such as soccer, baseball, football, basketball, hockey and cycling. And not just for the top tier leagues. Many good players in lower leagues can make decent money.\nThere are only a few individual sports that can claim the same status \u2013 boxing, tennis and golf being the main ones. But track & field and swimming are slowly climbing the ranks. Grand Prix prize money, endorsement deals and even appearance money for the stars are starting to grab attention. In fact, quite a few of the swimming elite are estimate to be making a million or more a year.\nThis money isn\u2019t just affecting those athletes either; it\u2019s slowly transforming our sport. As the elite now have a compelling reason to stay on the top for longer, their names are in front of the public for longer. This brand awareness raises their visibility, and keeps swimming in the sports news. This in turn, helps draw more talented younger athletes into swimming when they might have pursued other professional sports. The result of all this is that swimming at all ages continues to get faster, which puts it in the news again.\nAfter all, we have to remember that the sport of swimming competes against other sports for attention and dollars. And the more people hear about our sport, and watch our sport, the more popular it will be.\nBut like anything else, there are negatives as well. Recently, Patrick Murphy wrote an article in Swimming World, The Effects of Professional Swimming: Are Male Swimmers Staying in the Sport Too Long? about the some of the impacts of Professional swimming. He pointed out that as US male elite swimmers stay in the sport into their 30s, fast college swimmers no longer get the international experience they use to get. This could cause a serious transitional problem when the older swimmers retire and swimmers with far less international exposure take the leaderships roles.\nIt was an interesting article with a controversial title. But what intrigued me about the article was that it left out two very big negatives attached to professional sports in general.\nAs we have all seen too often, big money not only draws talented athletes, it often draws the use of PEDs. After all, even without a financial reward, amateur athletes have been doping for decades. Add big money and you get a dangerous incentive to get that little advantage over competitors (or in some minds, to stay on the same level as competitors).\nYou don\u2019t have to look any farther than professional team sports such as baseball or cycling to see this. During the Lance Armstrong years, some experts were stating that virtually every cyclist on the top Tour de France teams were doping. The most common excuse given was that it was necessary just to stay competitive. Baseball also had its problems, with experts pegging the percentage of MLB players using PEDs at between 25% and 50%. While swimming has it\u2019s cheaters now, it would be naive of us to think that it won\u2019t get much worse as the amount of professional money rises.\nIn an interview with Bob Nightengale of USA Today, Cleveland Indians President Mark Shapiro summarized it nicely, \u201cIn any free-market system, the greater the reward, the higher the propensity for violation. It happens on Wall Street, right?\u201d\nI probably don\u2019t have to go into the long-term health effects of PEDs. They\u2019re pretty well known, and they\u2019re serious. But in case you need a reminder, see my uncomfortable post, The Sad Legacy of East German Doping.\nThis negative isn\u2019t nearly as well known or visible, but equally serious. We\u2019ve all heard about the obscene amounts of money made by the superstars of sports. But what is rarely mentioned are the multitudes of marginal athletes who chase the dream of being a professional athlete. For every Floyd Mayweather or Cristiano Ronaldo or LeBron James, there are tens of thousands of lesser athletes who dedicate many years to this dream. These are the ones who count themselves incredibly lucky to continue their sport while just eking out a living. I remember reading an article about marginal golfers and tennis players \u2013 they called these athletes the rabbits. They hop from one weekend tournament to the next, 4 or more to a vehicle, 4 or more to a hotel room, hoping that one of them makes enough money that week to make life easier for the next week. They can never save money as they barely have enough money to buy food.\nThis phenomena happens with professional team sport as well, as players will sign on to some small regional team on the other side of the world just to play. They\u2019re certainly not getting rich on those contracts.\nSo what, you say. What\u2019s wrong with that? They\u2019re doing what they love to do. But the flip side of this is the cost of chasing their dream. During that decade or more the rest of the world have started to develop their long-term careers. Building their personal skills, networking, gaining experience. Basically developing an ability to feed themselves and their families for the rest of their lives. These rabbits have postponed their real lives to pursue what some would call an indulgent dream.\nThere\u2019s no dispute that the continued rise of Professional Swimming is a very good thing. The added visibility of the sport and its stars can only help make swimming faster and appeal to more athletes. But we shouldn\u2019t kid ourselves that the problems of professional sports won\u2019t sprout up as well.\nLooks like the sport of swimming is coming of age.\nBob Nightengale drop-dead sprinter Mighty Tritons MTAC PEDs performance enhancing drugs Rabbits swimming swimming world Tritons USA Swimming usa today\nPrevious Post The View From Mount Stupid\nNext Post Is the Swimming World Catching Up to the US?\nOne thought on \u201cChasing the Dream: The Pros and Cons of Professional Swimming\u201d\nThese aren\u2019t really pros and cons, pros and cons would be Pro: Staying fit Con: Tired and soar muscles.",

        "raw_content": "For the past few years we\u2019ve joined a small but growing number of teams from the Toronto area who have boycotted the overcrowded meets here in late June/early July, and happily headed south to outdoor 50m meets in the US. It\u2019s not hard to find meets that are perfect for our team, and the welcome from the hosts and other teams at the meets is fantastic. Incredibly friendly people, great atmosphere and wonderful swimming. This is the U.S. I know and love.\nSo it\u2019s with a lot of frustration that I announce that we\u2019ll be staying in Canada this year.\nToronto and surrounding area is incredibly multi-cultural, and swim meets have swimmers from many different backgrounds and cultures. It\u2019s one of the things I like the most about living in this part of the world. This also means that probably every swim team has families who may have trouble crossing the border into the US. Now, perhaps they could all get across, but I\u2019m not willing to take a chance that any of our swim families might be detained, questioned or ultimately made to feel not welcome. That is unacceptable to me.\nYou might think that I\u2019m over-reacting. I\u2019m not. Just last week, 19-year old Yassine Aber of the University of Sherbrooke, who was born in Canada and had a valid Canadian passport, was refused entry into the US when he tried to travel to Boston for a track meet. Yassine, whose parents are from Morocco, was travelling with 5 other athletes and their coach. Now, you may notice that Morocco isn\u2019t even one of the 7 countries on Trump\u2019s failed travel ban. It apparently doesn\u2019t matter. Yassine was detained and questioned for 5 hours. He was fingerprinted, and had to provide his phone password. And, of course, he was also questioned about his Muslim faith. And then he was turned away.\nI do not want that happening to anybody on our team.\nAnd so we\u2019ll look for a meet in Canada. I still want to boycott our local championship meets, at least until they get them under control (I blogged about this recently here). And I would really like to find a meet I can take our whole competitive team to. But for the time being, US-based meets are out.\nI also can\u2019t help but think that there are many Canadian groups coming to the same conclusion. And this is really a shame. Sports is an excellent way to form friendships and make connections with great people in other countries. I\u2019ll definitely miss that.\nIn the meantime, I wish my American friends the best of luck through these tough times.\nMighty Tritons swim meet swimming Tritons USA swi\nPrevious Post A Really Big Problem With A Really Big Meet\nNext Post Age Problem in Canadian Swimming\n3 thoughts on \u201cWhy We\u2019re Not Going To The U.S. This Year For Our Annual Swim Team Trip\u201d\nJust a voice from East Europe.\nAs someone who spent most of his life in USSR/ex USSR I\u2019m not well qualified to discuss American internal politics. But something tells me that it\u2019s not so \u201cinternal\u201d anymore as repercussions are felt already on both sides of Atlantic and Pacific. It\u2019s probably time to \u201cover-react\u201d and think ahead.\nProbably it\u2019s good time for North Americans (no matter what political loyalties are) to take closer look at the old Continent\u2019s history. Just by coincidence, I read your post immediately after this interview with Timothy Snyder:\nhttp://international.sueddeutsche.de/post/157058066625/we-have-at-most-a-year-to-defend-american\nI feel sorry for Yassine.

        "raw_content": "Late License : 24 hour\nElmore Court is the 750-year-old Grade II* listed home of the Guise family nestled in a beautiful rural village between the Cotswolds and Bristol. This ancient historical home with views of the River Severn has been renovated into a self-sustainable state-of-the-art Wedding Venue including a biomass heating system and naturally built super marquee, the \u2018Gillyflower\u2019.\nIt was 1262 when the family Guise was first granted the Elmore Estate by nobleman John de Burgh with the rent being a nominal \u2018clove of Gillyflower\u2019 each year. The current Guise\u2019s, Anselm and Sarah, have taken their combined 35 years of experience in the music and events industries and turned Elmore into something that makes the best of their skills and passions whilst maintaining tradition and keeping the incredible history alive.\nUnlike many grand historical houses, Elmore Court was not built for military, religious or ostentatious purposes. It was built as a functional homestead for family use and the entertaining of guests. Everybody who has come to stay in the house has felt the unique warmth and energy of the building. Many have commented on there being a certain magic about the place when it is being used for bringing people together; although, this allure can be partially attributed to the kind and welcoming natures of Anselm and Sarah.\nThere are four stunning ceremony and reception areas in the main house, the primary one being the Hall \u2013 the heart of the house, and an ideal location for a ceremony for up to 150 seated (and 50 standing) guests. The Drawing Room, The Morning Room and The Porch (the front steps of the house useable for an outdoor ceremony) make up the other three licensed ceremony areas.\nFor accommodation, there are 9 rooms all with their own unique character. These include the oak-panelled Master Suite with a Caesar size bed; en-suite facilities and a double bedroom attached which can also be used as a bridal dressing room. There are 7 more bedrooms including the fantastic Oak Room with its 350-year-old 4-poster bed and freestanding copper bath. Every room has been carefully modernized, then individually styled and redecorated by Sarah and Anselm to maintain the traditional feel of the house and inspire guests with their inventive attention to detail. The total sleeping capacity is 22 persons, with the option of supplementary single beds being added. All rooms include their carefully selected all-you-can-eat breakfast menu; consisting of the classic full English alongside yoghurts, mueslis, cereals, fruits and pastries. Everything is high quality, free range and locally sourced as far as possible.\nAn environmentally sustainable ethos is the foundation of operations at Elmore. The Gillyflower has been built using earth and timber from the Estate and a newly installed Biomass boiler heats both the house and Gillyflower using wood from the estate. In-house catering is an exceptional offer, with food being sourced locally as well as from the kitchen garden. There is a \u201cgrow-to-order\u201d option if booked well in advance. Whilst the focus is on how to make the most of your celebration during your stay, the intent is to get back to the basics of how a traditional country estate was run. The vision is that the House, Gardens and Estate will all work together to become shining example of low impact, self-sufficiency, without compromising on comfort and style.\nThe jewel in Elmore\u2019s swan-topped crown is The Gillyflower. It truly represents everything that this generation of the Guise family is trying to accomplish. These festival-minded souls take the greatest pleasure in seeing you and your guests have the wedding ceremony and party of your dreams. Within the house they celebrate tradition, while in the Gillyflower they embrace innovation and evolution.\nThe Gillyflower boasts a 200-seated dinner capacity and up to 400-dancing to the custom-made Funktion-One AmbiSonic Sound System; designed to have a specific set of features to make it perfect for weddings and events. The circular speaker layout means the sound can be contained within the dance-floor space so those who don\u2019t feel like dancing can still converse with ease and observe the frolics of others in comfort, which is perfect for the older generation who may not like the music or its volume! Meanwhile, those on the dance-floor are treated to a sound quality worthy of any club in the world. The sound can also be calibrated to fill the whole space should you want to crank things up to a proper wall-of-sound party vibe. The building is fully soundproofed so any early sleepers in the house will not be disturbed by the music.\nA unique fiber-optic lighting system designed and installed by Bruce Munro adorns the Gillyflower. There are huge seated windows with views over woodland and the Cotswolds. Outside, in full view of the Gillyflower, is a cosy fire pit with paths leading off through the wild meadow to a huge area for boutique camping. The Gillyflower is constructed from local estate farmed timber and rammed-earth walls, which are hidden behind \u2018living walls\u2019 consisting of Ivy, Virginia Creepers and other beautiful climbing plants. Hi-speed wi-fi, biomass-powered air conditioning, a premium built-in bar, a catering marquee and an in-house events manager ensure this is the most complete and cutting-edge country-wedding venue available in the UK today.\nAfter that write-up you simply must indulge in the Gallery\u2026 This is one epic Wedding Venue folks.\nWebsite www.elmorecourt.com\nEmail weddings@elmorecourt.com\nSaturday 8th & 15th June",

        "raw_content": "Home Press Releases The Columbus 2020 Regional Growth Strategy Achieves Key Goal to Add 150,000 Net New Jobs\nThe Columbus 2020 Regional Growth Strategy Achieves Key Goal to Add 150,000 Net New Jobs\n10-Year Goal Met Two Years Ahead of Schedule; Region Looks Forward to Next Decade\nColumbus, Ohio \u2013 Columbus 2020, the economic development organization for the 11-county Columbus Region, today reported that a key goal to add 150,000 net new jobs has been achieved within the 11- county Columbus Region, according to data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.\nThe goal to add 150,000 net new jobs by the year 2020 is one of four long-term economic development goals in the Columbus 2020 Regional Growth Strategy, an ambitious 10-year plan that was launched in 2010 by local leaders from the public and private sectors. The strategy set out to ensure growth of the 11- county regional economy. The Columbus Region is comprised of Delaware, Fairfield, Franklin, Knox, Licking, Logan, Madison, Marion, Morrow, Pickaway and Union counties.\n\u201cWe selected the 150,000 net new jobs goal because it surpasses anything we\u2019ve done in our history as a metropolitan region,\u201d said Kenny McDonald, president and CEO, Columbus 2020. \u201cAnd we stressed that it be a net number so that we continued to focus on the success and expansion of existing companies and not just the recruitment of new companies to the area.\u201d\nHundreds of investments and projects have contributed to the Columbus Region\u2019s success over the past decade. From the Region\u2019s rise as a top location for corporate enterprise data centers, to the growth of technology companies and new manufacturing operations, the Columbus Region has experienced diverse economic growth since 2010.\n\u201cOpen arms from this smart, open region. That\u2019s what I have experienced from Columbus as a business leader. I put down roots here in the middle of the Great Recession and now have a thriving business,\u201d said Becca Apfelstadt, co-founder and CEO, treetree. A Columbus-based marketing firm, treetree is one of hundreds of companies that have created new jobs since the Columbus 2020 Regional Growth Strategy launched.\nThis is the strongest decade of job growth in the Columbus Region\u2019s history. From 2000-2010, the Region added a meager 3,073 net new jobs during a period when the United States went through its worst economic crisis since the Great Depression. The Columbus MSA ranks No. 13 for net new jobs among the 35 similarly sized metros with a population between one and three million.\n\u201cWhen regional economic goals were set in 2010, at the tail end of a rough recession, many could not imagine the achievement of such a bold jobs goal. Companies within the Columbus Region have met the challenge, and our economic development outlook is now stronger than ever,\u201d said Alex R. Fischer, president and CEO, Columbus Partnership, who helped drive development and launch of the Columbus 2020 Regional Growth Strategy.\nAs the area begins to close in on completion of its decade-long plan, work to develop a strategy that meets the Region\u2019s new needs and challenges is in progress now.\n\u201cWe are very happy about hitting the new jobs milestone,\u201d said Dave Blom, president and CEO of OhioHealth and one of the leaders who helped drive the Columbus 2020 Regional Growth Strategy. \u201cAnd to have done it with such incredible commitment and collaboration \u2013 the Columbus Way \u2013 makes you proud to be part of it and confident that we can do even more.\u201d\nThe Columbus 2020 Regional Growth Strategy\u2019s goal to attract over $8 billion of capital investment has already been met and exceeded, and the goal to raise per capita income by 30 percent is on pace to be achieved and exceeded. The Columbus Region has also been repeatedly recognized as a national leader in economic development.\nContinued industry recognition like Site Selection magazine\u2019s top-10 Metro Area ranking, which the Columbus Region has been listed on six times in the past six years, has increased awareness of the Columbus Region\u2019s growing economy. In 2017, a survey of U.S. corporate executives and location advisors conducted by Development Counsellors International (DCI) found that Columbus 2020 was ranked No. 1 \u201cbest in class\u201d regional economic development group. In a separate study by Atlas Advertising of 100 site selectors from around the world, Columbus 2020 topped the list of \u201cmost valuable brands in economic development\u201d in 2017.\nFor an overview of the Columbus 2020 Regional Growth Strategy goals to date, visit the Columbus 2020 progress page of ColumbusRegion.com.",

        "raw_content": "William Villalongo's Solo Exhibition Opens in Chelsea Gallery\n'25 hour Cargo Piece' (detail) by William Villalongo. Images courtesy Susan Inglett Gallery.\nWilliam Villalongo A'99, assistant professor in the School of Art, has a new solo exhibition titled \"Keep on Pushing\" installed at Susan Inglett Gallery (522 West 24th Street). His fifth solo show at the gallery, it has been included in must-see lists in both Paper magazine and Artnet.\n\"I've been using the figure to tell a story about historical erasure,\" Villalongo says about the theme that has run through his exhibitions at the gallery. \"The works in 'Keep on Pushing' focus on the black male figure.\"\nThe figures in question are semi-abstract. While environmental objects, pieces of clothing, as well as hands and eyes and some other extremities are clearly readable, the rest of the person appears as a collection of marks with references to leaves, twigs and brambles. The gallery writes in its press release, \"Much like fallen autumn leaves, Villalongo\u2019s men navigate their world, subject to an unpredictable wind - piling, spinning, and re-collecting.\"\nMost, if not all the works, use black velour paper or black velvet flocking as the surface material. The shapes that form the figures are, in the case of the paper works, cut by hand with an X-Acto knife. He lays this on top of a white backing material and paints the other elements or adds collaged images. \"I wanted to deal with black as a material and a space,\" the artist says. \"It's velvet-coated paper so it's the blackest thing I could find.\" The cuttings share a grammar but each one is individually created. \"I suppose I probably repeat myself sometimes, but I don't think it's ever an exact replica.\"\nIn spite of being semi-abstract, all the figures are contextualized as being part of our contemporary world, often with an explicit or implied commentary on the role of African-Americans in today's culture. (The works are all from 2017.) \"Free, Black and All American\" is a triptych of three equally-sized cut-paper works. In each one, a pair of hands holds up a card below a pair of eyes, forming a kind of face out of the signature bramble-marks. Each card has text that reads, \"13%,\" \"250 yrs slave/152 yrs free,\" and \"2.3 million/incarcerated,\" respectively. In another work, entitled \"25 hour Cargo Piece\" a figure is scrunched up inside a cut-away of a cargo box. The eyes engage with the viewer, a haunting evocation of the plight of refugees, immigrants, and even torture victims.\nNot every piece has an overt political overtone, though. \"Flex\" shows a dancer, perhaps, with his arms outstretched behind him, coiled around each other. \"Corner Office\" has a figure in a similar pose, but seated behind a laptop with the Empire State Building visible through a window. The gallery describes the works together as conjuring, \"spaces of sensuality, humor, and history. Titled after Curtis Mayfield\u2019s 1970 'Keep on Pushing,' Villalongo\u2019s recent body of work speaks to the inherent human spirit\u2019s will to persevere and to find a way.\"\n\"Keep on Pushing\" is open until December 9",

        "raw_content": "Iberdrola abandons Kozloduy NPP project plans\nSpain's Iberdrola has abandoned plans to participate in the construction of new nuclear reactors at Bulgaria's Kozloduy Nuclear Power Plant (NPP). It is not known whether any other companies are in line to take Iberdrola's place.\nState wants more influence in CEZ\nThe Czech Finance Ministry wants to increase its influence in CEZ, an energy company, where the state is a majority owner. The ministry will initiate changes at the next general meeting with a focus on strengthening its position in selecting suppliers for construction of two new blocks of the nuclear power plant in Temelin. Media reports say that the proposed changes are opposed by some members of the CEZ management board. The general meeting is scheduled for 29 June 2010.\nThe largest solar heating plant in the world\nThe largest solar heating plant in the world is to be built on Danish island of \u00c6r\u00f8. The EU has granted DKK 46mn (EUR 6.19mn USD 7.55mn) to the project, which includes a 18,365 sq. metres plant. Heating storage facilities totalling 75,000 sq. metres will also be the largest in the world.\nDong Energy's listing cancelled\nThe Danish government has in practice decided to give up the plans for the listing of the state-owned energy group Dong Energy, according to business daily B\u00f8rsen's sources. The sources say that the government's official line is still that the listing has been only postponed due to uncertain market conditions but that realistically the plans have been called off. The main reason for the reluctance to sell off Dong Energy is concern about the safety of electricity supply as Dong Energy controls 70% of total energy production.\nEesti Energia invests EEK 900mn in wind farm\nIn Estonia, the state-owned power utility Eesti Energia's supervisory council has approved the building of the 39 MW capacity wind farm near Narva, in the former shale ash deposit. The wind farm of 17 turbines, will be put into production in 2012. The prime contractor, Nordecon, will roll out the building of the wind farm in the summer of 2010.\nThe total cost of the turnkey wind farm project is EEK 900mn (EUR 57.52mn USD 71.27mn). The yearly electricity generation capacity of the wind farm reaches 90 GWh. Eesti Energia claims the building of the wind farm in the former ash deposit area is a green move.\nEWEA predicts 10 GW of new wind energy capacity for 2010\nSome 10 GW of new wind power capacity is set to be installed in the EU during 2010, according to a forecast made by the European Wind Energy Association (EWEA). This will raise the total installed capacity in the region by 13% to nearly 85 GW. In 2009, 10.163 GW of new wind power was set up, making up 39% of all new installed power capacity during the year.\nEWEA has pointed out that 2010 will see delivery of orders placed after the start of the financial crisis, showing that there is still strong investment interest in wind energy. The new capacity in 2010 is expected to be set up in France and Italy, with 1 GW each, and installations in new EU member states such as Romania and Bulgaria are expected to double.\nThe UK is also expected to report good growth in wind energy capacity, while Germany is set to take top spot for the largest market. Spain, however, is expected to see a decrease.\nNIB ready to finance ownership changes in Fingrid\nFinnish power companies Fortum and Pohjolan Voima will have to give up their ownership of Finnish electricity transmission system operator Fingrid in 2012. According to the Nordic Investment Bank (NIB), the bank will be pleased to participate in funding ownership transfers and investments in the grid when needed.\nNIB invested over EUR 1bn in the environmental and energy sectors in 2009. In April 2010, NIB decided to expand its loan programme to allocate EUR 2bn to investments that prevent climate change and promote energy efficiency and renewable energy.\nRWE not to build further new coal-fired power stations\nAccording to Leonhard Birnbaum, Chief Strategy Officer of German energy group RWE, the construction of new coal-fired power stations in the European Union does not make economic sense under the current framework conditions. Thus, RWE will not build further coal-fired power stations. The group will just complete two coal-fired power stations currently under construction in Germany.\nPolish group PGE interested in nuclear power project\nPolish energy producer Polska Grupa Energetyczna (PGE) is interested in taking part in the construction of a nuclear power plant Ignalina II in Lithuania. It is estimated that to do that, PGE would have to invest over PLN 2bn (EUR 486.12mn USD 592.99mn).\nDecision about possible investors from Poland and other Eastern European countries will be taken by a strategic investor with a 51% share in the plant which is to be chosen before the end of 2010. In total the Ignalina II investment is to cost EUR 4bn (USD 4.88bn).\nOxxio sale delayed, price less than initially expected\nUK-based Centrica has refused to give a new transaction date for the divestment by Dutch energy provider Oxxio. It had originally stated the transaction would be finalised by 30 June 2010 but experts believe late summer may be possible. In Centrica's accounts, Oxxio is currently worth around GBP 50mn (EUR 60.08mn USD 73.99mn) compared with an initial purchase price of GBP 95mn in 2005.\nAnalysts believes the transaction sum will be between GBP 60mn and GBP 80mn, compared with expectations in early 2010 of a sum exceeding the purchase price.\nFortum might build heat and power plant in Wroclaw\nThe Finish concern Fortum is considering the construction of a new heat and power plant in Wroclaw which will be fuelled with gas or coal with biomass additives. In the meantime, the company is interested in the construction of waste burning facilities and nuclear power facilities in Poland. In autumn 2010, it will open a biomass and coal power plant in Czestochowa, the construction of which cost EUR 130mn (USD 157.72mn).\nLithuania not to buy electricity from Kaliningrad nuclear plant\nLithuania will not buy electricity from the planned new nuclear plant in Russia's Kaliningrad, said Lithuania's Prime Minister, Andrius Kubilius. He said Lithuania would focus on its own nuclear plant project. Other nuclear plant projects will only concern Lithuania in relation to environmental safety, he said.\nMr Kubilius pointed out that Kaliningrad's energy generation capacities are already fully covered. With the launch of the planned nuclear plant in Kaliningrad, the region's electricity output will exceed its needs. Russia would therefore wish to export surplus power to neighbouring Lithuania and Poland.\nParliament lifts ban on new nuclear power reactors\nSwedish parliament has voted to allow new nuclear power reactors to be built to replace old reactors. The vote was 174 in favour and 172 against. Parliament has agreed that the state should not subsidise new nuclear power reactors and that there is no ceiling to liabilities for reactor owners in the event of an accident. Reactor owners must have an insurance policy or economic security for at least SEK 12bn (EUR 1.25bn USD 1.55bn).\nPossible EDF Energy network sale hitch\nEDF Energy's plans to sell its UK electricity distribution network may be delayed due to a row over a pension fund deficit believed to total GBP 100mn (EUR 119.70mn USD 146.02mn)-GBP 200mn. The French group had been in talks with pension scheme trustees over a change-of-control clause that obliges the retirement plan to be topped up by any new owner.\nFinal bids for the network, which supplies power to 7.8mn South-East homes, are due on 21 June 2010. Pension fund Borealis and utility Scottish & Southern Energy are in discussions to boost their bid with a third party.",

        "raw_content": "I like to think of my home as a safe haven for my family. People are cared for, needs are met, and we can close the door on the world outside when the weight of it gets too heavy. I cannot help what may or may not happen to or for my family members outside the four walls of our home, but inside that home at least I attempt to make a place of retreat.\nThat\u2019s not to say there are never tears or gnashing of teeth there.\nThere are. Whenever you mix different people with differing ideas and personalities there are going to be issues. As my kids grow older, and begin the process of making their own decisions, we sometimes struggle. Still, our home is a safe place for those who live there. It is the place where we can let it all hang out, so to speak. We may have to save face outside, but inside it is a safe place to fall.\nThe day my daughter found out she had not been chosen for a part in the school play, she made it all the way home on the bus, up the street, through the front door, and into her daddy\u2019s arms before she felt safe enough to let out her sadness and tears. No one would make fun of her disappointment. There was no embarrassment at not being chosen, just murmurings of love and long hugs.\nRecently, at the end of a particularly difficult workday, I drove home with great determination to get to my place of refuge. It was snowing and the roadways were becoming unsafe, but I would have driven on a sheet of ice to get home. I fell through the front door and into the waiting arms of my husband. Poor guy. He has two emotional females to manage.\nWhile my husband and boys are a bit less emotional and weepy, they too, find love and acceptance at home when the world throws them a curveball or a bully on the playground.\nI cannot imagine not having this safe haven to go to.\nYet I know there are people who do not feel that their home is safe. Rather, home is a place of judgment and fear. Children are not treasured or nurtured. Marriages are not cherished. Honesty is not appreciated, and there are no arms to comfort or shoulders to cry on. Home is a place to avoid, or run away from rather than run toward.\nIn either case, whether or not your home is a safe haven, one is available to all who run to it. Proverbs 18:10 states that \u201cThe name of the Lord is a strong tower; the righteous run to it and are safe.\u201d It doesn\u2019t say that some are safe. All who trust in HIm, and run to it are safe.\nEvery sadness, disappointment, or abuse we have suffered at the hands of this world He understands.\nThe pastor of the church we attend recently shared a series of messages dealing with getting through bad days. A tag line from the series said, \u201cHe (Jesus) went through his worst day, so that you could get through yours.\u201d\nWe all need open arms to run to sometimes. While it\u2019s always nice for those arms to have skin on, we can rest in the knowledge that God\u2019s arms are always open, and everyone who runs to Him makes it.\nThis Easter, I pray that you will pause and think about the sacrifice made for you.\nIt was personal. It was devastatingly horrible, and scripturally fulfilling. It was for me, and it was for you.\nThe prophet Isaiah spoke these words about Jesus long before Jesus ever graced the planet. \u201cBut he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon him, and by his wounds we are healed.\u201d (Isaiah 53:5)\nThose words are a safe haven for us all.\nHow will you celebrate this Easter? How will you thank Him for being your safe haven? Fun, family, church services? Something else? Share your traditions here\u2026 some of us need some new ones!\nJust wanted you to know, your home was a safe haven for me! I miss you sweet friend- I miss coming over for some good grilling, and feeling like part of the family. Thank you for making us feel so loved \ud83d\ude42\n\u00ab Spiritual Drought\nFormula or Friendship \u00bb",

        "raw_content": "CONSUMER | JUSTICE\nArizona\u2019s laws on seatbelt use are relatively lax compared to other states, but state officials and agencies try to encourage seatbelts, as the Arizona Department of Transportation did in this highway message sign. (Photo courtesy Arizona Department of Transportation)\nBy Imani Stephens | Cronkite News\nWASHINGTON \u2013 The number of holiday travelers will be up this year in both the state and the nation, according to AAA, which estimates that 908,000 Arizonans will be among the 48.5 million Americans hitting the road for Thanksgiving.\nThat\u2019s about a 5 percent increase over holiday travel last year for both the state and the nation. But that increase in traffic means more than just an increase in traffic jams \u2013 it means higher likelihood of accidents, which is why safety experts stress the need for seatbelt use, particularly during the holidays.\n\u201cPeople are rushing around, they\u2019re thinking about other things and they\u2019re distracted. It\u2019s crucial to be buckled up all the time,\u201d said Russ Rader, senior vice president of communications with the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety.\nBut in Arizona, the decision to buckle up is a more personal one than it is in most states.\nArizona law does not require adults to buckle up in the back seat. And it is a \u201csecondary enforcement\u201d state, meaning that while police can cite a driver or front-seat passenger for failing to wear a seatbelt, they can\u2019t pull them over for it \u2013 they have to have stopped them for something else first.\nArizona is one of a handful of states with both secondary enforcement and back-seat exemptions, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures.\n\u201cYou do have states that are enforcing primary seatbelt legislation for front- and rear-seat passengers,\u201d said Ann Kitch, a transportation research analyst at NCSL.\nKen Kolosh, statistics manager of the National Safety Council, said states like Arizona are going in the wrong direction with their seatbelt laws.\n\u201cBuckled up in a passenger vehicle decreases your odds of dying by 45 percent,\u201d Kolosh said. \u201cNothing is 100 percent effective, including seatbelts, but seatbelts nearly double your chance of surviving a crash.\u201d\nAlberto Gutier of the Arizona Governor\u2019s Office of Highway Safety agrees that seatbelts save lives, and his office encourages all motorists to always wear their seat belts, to put children in car seats and to drive sober.\nBut he challenged the claim that Arizona is going in the wrong direction with its seatbelt laws, noting that seatbelt use has steadily risen in the state where seatbelt use is \u201cway ahead\u201d of states with primary enforcement laws.\n\u201cKansas, Arkansas and Mississippi, they all have primary seatbelt law and, guess what? We beat them in the usage rate, we\u2019re at 87 percent,\u201d Gutier said.\nGutier said there are many factors that can contribute to a fatal accident, and lack of seatbelts is just one of them.\n\u201cSeatbelts is one of the items that we always talk about. When it comes to fatalities it is not only seatbelts,\u201d he said. \u201cWhat happens with fatalities is, if someone is speeding, distracted or impaired and they\u2019re not wearing a seatbelt, it could be a fatality.\u201d\nThe most recent report from the Arizona Governor\u2019s Office of Highway Safety said there were 962 motor vehicle fatalities in 2016, of which 329 were deaths of passengers who were not buckled up. Both the number of fatalities and the number of those victims were unrestrained at the time of the crash has risen steadily in recent years, as the number of people on the road in Arizona has risen.\nWhether the law requires it or not, however, Rader said buckling up is important, even in the back seat. He said that when passengers do not buckle up in the back seat that they \u201cessentially become a human missile\u201d during a crash.\n\u201cYou\u2019re moving forward at tremendous force and \u2026 not only are you at high risk of injury yourself, but you\u2019re also risking injury to the people in the front seat, even if they are belted,\u201d Rader said.\nConrad Jackson, a paramedic engineer with the Prescott Fire Department, is among the emergency responders who are often the first at the scene of car crashes said he has seen the evidence firsthand.\n\u201cThe number of individuals that have no injuries or minor injuries, front seat \u2013 back seat, it doesn\u2019t matter,\u201d Jackson said. \u201cSeatbelts save lives.\u201d\n\u2013 Video by Imani Stephens/Cronkite News",

        "raw_content": "The Nation Special Report: Fix The Debt's Astroturf Roots\nWe've always believed Fix the Debt was nothing more than Astroturf. The Nation's special issue digs into the backers and their motives.\nWe've written many, many times about Fix the Debt's backers and the billionaires who created it along with the false flag over the debt, and now The Nation has dedicated an entire issue to this astroturf organization.\nMary Bottari's expos\u00e9 names the 'puppet populists':\nBehind this strategy are no fewer than 127 CEOs and even more \u201cstatesmen\u201d pushing for a \u201cgrand bargain\u201d to draw up an austerity budget by July 4. With many firms kicking in\u2028$1 million each on top of Peterson\u2019s $5 million in seed money, this latest incarnation of the Peterson message machine must be taken seriously.\nFix the Debt has hired such powerful PR firms and lobby shops as the DCI Group, the Glover Park Group, the Dewey Square Group and Proof Integrated Communications, a unit of the PR firm Burson-Marsteller, which was the go-to firm for Big Tobacco. In the run-up to the \u201cfiscal cliff,\u201d these firms launched a flashy $3 million media campaign, blanketing Capitol Hill with TV, Internet, Metro and newspaper ads featuring slogans like \u201cGot Debt?\u201d and \u201cJust Fix It.\u201d\nFix the Debt\u2019s stable of CEOs are a PR flack\u2019s dream. Not only are they able to get meetings with everyone from John Boehner to President Obama; they can flood cable news with laughable messages of \u201cshared sacrifice\u201d and be treated with fawning respect. Fix the Debt\u2019s David Cote, CEO of Honeywell, \u201cbrings serious financial muscle to the table\u201d when he pushes \u201cmarket credible solutions,\u201d chirps The Wall Street Journal. There is no mention that Cote is a tax-dodging, pension-skimping hypocrite: Honeywell has a negative average tax rate of -0.7 percent and underfunds its employee pensions by -$2.8 billion, making Cote\u2019s workers even more reliant on Social Security.\nCreating a crisis is key. \u201cAmerica is more than $16 trillion in debt,\u201d Fix the Debt\u2019s website warns, calling it \u201ca catastrophic threat to our security and economy.\u201d The CEOs echo this warning, writing to Congress of the \u201cserious threat to the economic well-being and security of the United States.\u201d\nAh, the time-honored tactic of creating a crisis in order to solve it. That's something we're familiar with, right? And as Lisa Graves reports, Pete Peterson has a time-honored track record of doing just that, in business and public:\nIn 2006, Blackstone ransacked Travelport, a travel reservation conglomerate, piling on $4.3 billion in new debt, then pocketing $1.7 billion to pay shareholders and itself. Travelport promptly fired 841 workers to meet its new debt obligations. It was a great deal for Blackstone but \u201ca horrible one for Travelport,\u201d according to one investment adviser, who described Blackstone as trading in \u201cpoisoned waters.\u201d\nMitt Romney is only one of many who learned at the feet of the master, which is why we have far too much consolidation in the corporate sector and such wealth inequality. Yet to these billionaires, the only answer is to cut Social Security and Medicare. Actually, they'd like to end Social Security and Medicare.\nEd Rendell is one of the reasons this campaign has any traction at all, and The Nation doesn't spare him and the other corporate Democrats:\nPeterson has poured an estimated half-billion dollars into schemes so unpopular, so economically unsound and so obviously self-serving that even conservative politicians run from them, as the implosion of the Simpson-Bowles commission illustrates. So Peterson has repurposed his project into what Institute for Policy Studies (IPS) Global Economy Project director Sarah Anderson calls \u201ca Trojan horse\u201d for \u201cfilthy rich tax-dodging hypocrites.\u201d With a stable of CEOs, Peterson timed the launch of this new $60 million campaign to exploit the wrangling over the fiscal cliff, the debt ceiling and the sequester. Fix the Debt has signed up prominent Democrats and Republicans as spokespeople (many of whom have undisclosed financial ties to firms that lobby on deficit-related issues) and launched \u201castroturf\u201d campaigns to create the fantasy that young people and seniors are concerned enough about debts and deficits to support Peterson\u2019s austerity agenda.\nThe most galling part of their effort to me is the myth of intergenerational conflict. Rather than promote a responsible theme that we're all part of the same country and society, they promote the idea that our children and grandchildren will be \"saddled with debt\" because of the Baby Boom generation. It's not true and it's intended to foster division and resentment.\nMuch of the information in the special report has been mentioned here and on other blogs and websites. But having it all in one place is helpful, especially when you encounter people who have bought into the false idea that the debt is the single biggest economic risk there is. I would argue that it's not debt, but selfishness and greed that poses the biggest risk, and history would bear that out.\nastroturf, Fix The Debt, John Nichols, Pete Peterson, The Nation",

If you\u2019ve done your homework, you know that SEO determines how current and future patients find you through search engines, and you may also know that if done correctly, SEO can help you rank high in search results.\nWhat you may not know is that the rules of SEO are like the weather here in Orlando, Florida \u2013 always changing and highly unpredictable. Understanding how SEO works one year does not necessarily translate to the next. At Crystal Clear Digital Marketing, we can help.\nThe Phone Book is a Thing of the Past\nTraditionally, the best way for people to find your medical practice was through the Yellow Pages. The rules were simple: practices were listed in alphabetical order, and you knew where you stood in the grand scheme of the search process. If you were lucky enough to establish a practice name in the first half of the alphabet, chances are you\u2019d be among the first choices for potential patients.\nBut in today\u2019s social world, those rules no longer apply. The whole world is on the Internet, and four out of the five top-visited sites are search engines. When it comes to the Social Patient who is searching for services on the Internet, practices that start with X, Y and Z are just as likely to be found as the ones that begin with A, B and C.\nWhat can you do to stay ahead? This is where SEO comes into play, and it\u2019s your medical practice\u2019s new best friend.\nAn SOS for SEO\nIf you have already begun to establish your online presence with a website, that\u2019s amazing. When it comes to finding, keeping and serving patients profitably, embracing technology is everything. But your job isn\u2019t done.\nWithout getting overly technical, SEO is the process of using relevant information such as your location and procedures to direct patients to your website. When patients in your area use Google to search for a procedure that you do, you want your practice to be the first search result. But so does every other practice who does the same procedure in your area.\nNot getting ahead in the SEO game can not only hurt where you end up in Google searches, it can bury you so far into the search results that patients don\u2019t see you at all. This is where Crystal Clear comes in. Through building a mobile-responsive, customized website with 100 percent unique content, our SEO specialists will optimize your website so that patients find you every time, all the time.\nIt\u2019s always a great day at Crystal Clear, and boosting your website with SEO optimization can make it a great day for you and your medical practice as well.

        "title": "Digital Public Diplomacy: How Chinese Social Media Is Changing the Way Diplomatic Missions in China Engage with Local Audiences | Dao",
        "raw_content": "Digital Public Diplomacy: How Chinese Social Media Is Changing the Way Diplomatic Missions in China Engage with Local Audiences\nJan - Apr 4th 2015 | Posted in Social, Web/Creative\nWith the rapid growth and increasing popularity of Chinese social media, foreign embassies and consulates in China have been quick to establish online presences on some of China\u2019s most popular microblogging platforms such as Sina Weibo (\u65b0\u6d6a\u5fae\u535a) and on mobile communication services such as Wechat (\u5fae\u4fe1). In this post, we will explore how diplomatic missions in China use Chinese social media, and what strategies they employ in order to best engage and communicate with local audiences.\n\u2018It is of great importance that we as a public organization that wants to brand Denmark and Danish culture are present on the Chinese social media.\u2019\n\u2013 Friis Arne Petersen, Danish Ambassador to China (in Technode)\nFor foreign embassies and consulates in China, the increasing importance of public diplomacy has created a variety of challenges, most of which revolve around the following conundrum: how can foreign diplomatic missions best engage local Chinese audience in a meaningful, informative and ultimately rewarding conversation?\nSocial media platforms allow diplomatic missions in China to reach out to local Chinese publics and expat populations in ways that are far more direct, interactive and far-reaching than tradition channels of public diplomacy (such as speeches or newspaper articles). In March of 2014, Sina Weibo counted 144 million monthly active users; reflecting its ever-increasing popularity, WeChat counted 470 million monthly active users at the end of 2014. If positioned intelligently and executed cleverly, a foreign embassy\u2019s social media presence has the potential to reach an audience that significantly exceeds the size of audiences reached by traditional channels of public diplomacy. By way of illustration, the French Embassy in Beijing (240,000 followers) and the American Embassy in Beijing (920,000 followers) have amassed a sizeable online following. To put these figures into perspective, the Weibo account of the Beijing Subway System reaches almost 2 million people, whereas the Beijing City Government\u2019s Weibo account lists 6 million followers.\nArguably more important than the size of audiences to be reached through digital public diplomacy, however, are the notably improved methods of engagement afforded by social media platforms. Both Weibo and Wechat allow embassies to engage with local audiences in novel ways. Followers share, like and comment on content posted on embassies\u2019 social media accounts, thus not only providing diplomatic representations with instant feedback on what sort of content attracts user attention, but also allowing embassy officials to directly respond to user comments and queries. The Swedish Embassy\u2019s approach to digital diplomacy further illustrates the potential of social media to generate meaningful interaction with local audiences: on its Weibo account, the Swedish Embassy, among other things, gives \u201cSwedish ministers or officials an opportunity to chat directly with Chinese microbloggers.\u201d The more private nature of WeChat allows for an even more personal interaction with local audiences. Friis Arne Petersen, Denmark\u2019s Ambassador in China, explains the value of WeChat as a tool of public diplomacy as follows:\n\u2018I think the intimacy that you have on WeChat allows for more lengthy and personal stories from Denmark that you won\u2019t find on for example Weibo. On WeChat you have a one-to-one dialogue with people following you, while on Weibo you have a big virtual megaphone speaking to a large crowd\u2019\nIn addition to the more intimate nature of audience engagement, WeChat further sets itself apart from Weibo by allowing for interaction with both Chinese and non-Chinese (expat) audiences. This is primarily due to WeChat\u2019s popularity among both Chinese and non-Chinese users. As a predominantly Chinese language platform, Weibo accounts are primarily \u2013 if not exclusively \u2013 targeted at Chinese audiences; WeChat, on the other hand, is available in 15 languages, thus allowing embassies to reach out to Chinese audiences and expat populations located in China. The French Embassy in Beijing, for instance, runs two separate WeChat profiles, in French and in Chinese. Having two separate accounts allows the Embassy to efficiently address the distinct content demands of Chinese audiences and French expats in China.\nBesides providing more direct, interactive and targeted channels of communication with local audiences, maintaining a presence on Chinese social media also has very tangible pragmatic benefits for foreign diplomatic representations in China. In fact, as Mark McDowell, former counselor at the Canadian Embassy in Beijing, points out:\n\u2018At the embassy we are very interested in documenting specific, measurable benefits of social media. So for example we can show that we can use it to flatten out peak demand periods for visa applications, or to market education fairs more effectively and efficiently.\u2019\nIn short, then, for foreign diplomatic representations in China, having a strong presence on the country\u2019s most important social networks \u2013 Weibo and WeChat \u2013 is of key strategic importance: not only do Weibo and WeChat allow diplomatic missions to increase and diversify their demographic reach, but they also allow for more personal, direct and interactive engagement with local audiences.",

Donate to a local caregiving organization, ask if they need volunteer help, or offer to fill in for a caregiver so that they can take a break. Sometimes, just lending an ear to a caregiving friend makes an enormous difference in their lives.\nOf course, learning to recognize the signs of Alzheimer\u2019s can help to keep you or a loved one safe. Eleven early signs of Alzheimer\u2019s include:\nMemory loss \u2013 becoming more forgetful than usual\nDifficulty completing routine daily tasks \u2013 errands, driving, and self care, for example, become more difficult and time consuming\nConfusion regarding time or place \u2013 the individual might forget where he or she is, or how they got there, the date, or the year\nDifficulty planning or solving problems \u2013 balancing the checkbook or paying bills might become difficult\nAwkward conversations \u2013 the individual might pause, unable to find the right words, or forget what they were talking about\nLost items, or difficulty remembering where objects were placed\nVision problems \u2013 difficulty determining distance, reading, or seeing color or contrast\nPoor judgement \u2013 the individual makes silly mistakes or sometimes serious one (giving away money, for example)\nDecline in self care \u2013 the person might stop bathing, brushing hair and teeth, or changing clothes\nSocial withdrawal \u2013 the individual is missing from social events or doesn\u2019t want to leave the house\nPersonality and/or mood changes \u2013 the individual might seem confused, depressed, anxious, or experience seemingly unwarranted shifts in mood\nIf you or a loved one is experiencing these symptoms, it is important to share your concerns with a healthcare professional right away.",

My latest (second ever) vlog post to YouTube talks about it. Three years after my Dad\u2019s death she asked me: \u201cWhere\u2019s Jim?\u201d, and, trying to hold it together, I had to tell her, for the second time, that he had passed on.\nalzheimersbereavementfamilyMum\n26 pages of info on The Camino de Santiago (for those who want to spend a week or so on \u201cthe road less travelled\u201d)\nHaving walked the last stage of the Camino de Santiago along the lesser known and, therefore, less commercial Portuguese route to research my book Pins and Needles, I became somewhat of an accidental expert. In order that this knowledge shouldn\u2019t go to waste I put together a 26 page booklet in pdf form giving some tips and information for anyone who\u2019s considering putting a backpack on their back and setting off for a week on the ancient pilgrim trail. As you\u2019ll see from the guide, I thoroughly recommend it for all sort so reasons. You can download the free pdf here. Buen camino!\nThe imaginative parking of some makes life difficult for others but Romans take it in their stride\u2026\nBecause I\u2019m in Rome, I\u2019ve been sitting in a little delight-of-a-trattoria, sampling a pear and walnut salad with Gorgonzola.\nBecause I\u2019m in Rome I\u2019ve been sitting near the open window to escape the heat. When I left Dublin this morning it was wintry and I feel that getting acclimatised will take a while.\nI\u2019ve been observing the quandary of a woman and her car, which had been parked front-to-footpath in the appropriate fashion outside.\nBecause this is Rome, she returned to find herself practically trapped into the parking space by a large people-carrier vehicle, parked in manner that is illegal, even in Rome.\nBecause she is clearly from Rome, she didn\u2019t make a fuss but, instead, took a deep breath and began to attempt the Houdini-like escape feat of extracting her vehicle from between a motorcycle, a car and the thoughtlessly parked black monster.\nIn a true spirit of Roman humanity, a man appeared on the scene from nowhere and began to wave, shout, coax, gesticulate and cajole the woman and her car through the intricate set of manoeuvres that he felt would set them both free. Being Rome, a small crowd of assistants, supervisors and onlookers soon joined in. He who had been first to step up to the task was not to be unseated from his heroic status, however. He persisted until, between his somewhat ambiguous directions and the driver\u2019s growing nervousness at the scene she was causing, he had contrived to leave her wedged tightly between all three vehicles.\nTo me the situation seemed hopeless. But, this being Rome, the woman\u2019s savior was not to be outdone.\n\u201cI\u2019ll move it,\u201d he announced, and, taking the keys of the offending black people carrier monster out of his pocket, he did so, putting the twenty minute struggle to an abrupt and satisfactory end.\nThis being Rome, nobody seemed perplexed.\nIl Sorpassoitalian lifeItalyparkingRomeVatican City",

        "raw_content": "Home Music \u2018Raisin\u2019 Cane: A Harlem Renaissance Odyssey\u2019 at George Mason University\u2019s Center for...\n\u2018Raisin\u2019 Cane: A Harlem Renaissance Odyssey\u2019 at George Mason University\u2019s Center for the Arts\nInspired by the 1923 novel, Cane, by Jean Toomer, and the work of other renaissance artists, this multimedia presentation fronted by Jasmine Guy provided a look into the general trends and opposing factions that that transversed the Harlem Renaissance from the return of African American soldiers after World War I through the early 1930s. \u2018Raisin\u2019 Cane: A Harlem Renaissance Odyssey is clearly a labor of love by the multi-talented Guy.\nBased on Cane, written in 1923, the story of the Harlem Renaissance was expanded into Raisin\u2019 Cane by Harry Clark and directed by Dan Guerroro. During the first act, Guy was almost always center stage delivering a complex message through the words of intellectuals of the time. During the second act, the Avery Sharpe Trio, not Guy, dominated the stage. Her closing lines,\u201dI, Too\u201d by Langston Hughes were the most powerful of the evening.\nBacked by the spectacular Avery Sharpe Trio Guy employed poems, short stories, literature excerpts, songs and paintings to tell the story of the Renaissance. For much of the first act, I found it easy to follow the unfolding story but hard to identify the different prominent people of the time. This might have been easier if the program included poems, literature, and songs in the order of the program rather than by the name of the creator.\nA high point for me was the discussion of the sharply divided views of Langston Hughes, W.E.B. Dubois, Booker T. Washington, and Marcus Garvey. Hughes believed in the power of new intellectuals. Poet/author Langston Huhes extolled the macht of artists to effect social change while W.E.B. DuBois\u2019 \u201cTalented Tenth\u201d concept forwarded the premise of the black community\u2019s new intellectuals to change the social landscape of America. Garvey preached the return to Africa. All were painfully aware of the contrast between the lives of African Americans in the south and the north.\nAspects of the Renaissance were highlighted by paintings from Archibald Motley, who showcased the high life in settings such as the Cotton Club. William H. Johnson used primitive forms to illustrate African Americans returned to Africa. Palmer Haydon is best known for his paintings which reflect African-American folklore and also documented all aspects of life in Harlem.\nExcept for the closing reading, the second act was dominated by the Avery Sharpe Trio, including Diane Monroe on violin, Kevin Sharpe on percussion and vocals, and Avery Sharpe on the Double Bass. Avery Sharpe composed all of the music for the show except for a handful of traditional songs, including Eubie Blake\u2019s \u201cI\u2019m Just Wild About Harry,\u201d Duke Ellington\u2019s \u201cThe Mooche,\u201d and the spiritual \u201cSometimes I Feel Like a Motherless Child,\u201d which Guy sang with heartfelt emotion. The trio\u2019s beautiful sound was one of the highlights of the show. Diane Monroe received many well-deserved ovations.\nGuy ended the performance with a poem from Langston Hughes called \u201cI, Too.\u201d It speaks passionately about the rise of the African American from servant status to the one being served:\nLangston Hughes.\nAll in all, Raisin\u2019 Cane: A Harlem Renaissance Odyssey was not about skin \u2013 but about heart.\nRaisin\u2019 Cane: A Harlem Odyssey played on January 24, 2015 at 8 PM at George Mason University\u2019s Center for the Arts \u2013 4373 Mason Pond Drive, in Fairfax, VA.

        "title": "UFC Gets A Reebok Deal, Possibly No Longer Aesthetically Destitute",
        "raw_content": "UFC Gets A Reebok Deal, Possibly No Longer Aesthetically Destitute\nThe UFC just got in bed with Reebok, and in doing so, threw out a load of its old sponsors. It's the sort deal a grown-up company makes, and also the sort of deal that reminds you that the UFC has some growing up left to do.\nThe exclusive deal runs for six years for an unspecified amount of money (MMA media is guessing eight-figure per year range), and begins this July. At that point, fighters will no longer be walking billboards for Condom Depot or Dynamic Fastener or whatever, and will have to wear official Reebok apparel at UFC events.\nSo what is a Dynamic Fastener, and why is it suddenly all over UFC broadcasts?\nFew fans seem to know what Dynamic Fastener is, but it\u2019s hard not to notice the sponsor that seems\u2026\nThis is reasonable in a lot of ways. If the UFC wants to function as more of a traditional sports league\u2014instead of a cartel, like boxing\u2014then the gear athletes wear is a perfectly reasonable thing for it to take ownership over.\nIndividual fighters will have personalized looks, so while there's some chance that this improves on the UFC's pervasive aesthetic bankruptcy, chances are strong that this will simply be a Reebok-branded expression of the garish 2002 Cali-bro apparel we have now. (If Reebok had any sense, it would force the issue and make everyone look like they're showing up to a kung fu tournament, but that's a big ask even in dreams.)\nAll of the up-front money from Reebok will go to the fighters, and will pay out in a tiered system based on official UFC rankings (which are decided by a panel of voters comprising MMA media members regularly cowed by the organization, which will be its own nightmare). Champions make the most, then rankings 1-5, 6-10, and 11-15 earn a different pay grade, and there is a base rate for anyone under that.\nHow those tiers break down specifically will be crucial, especially at the extremes. Any flattening of payouts is always going to hit the biggest stars\u2014Jon Jones will probably take a hit the same way LeBron does\u2014but the guys at the bottom, the ones just starting out in MMA, often make more off of their sponsorships than they do from their UFC contract.\nFighters also get 20 percent of all royalties for any merchandise bearing their likeness. This is more fraught than it sounds, which Kevin Iole explains in some detail at Yahoo:\nThe UFC and the fighter will share in the profits from those sales. There will be a lot of Ronda Rousey, Jon Jones, Vitor Belfort, Anderson Silva and Cain Velasquez apparel sold, but probably not much merchandise with the likenesses of, oh, Walt Harris and Bubba Bush.\nThe bigger the star, the more apparel that's likely to be sold. It's probable that 20 or 25 fighters will sell a ton of branded apparel and that the vast majority of fighters will sell next to nothing.\nManaging merchandising royalties isn't a problem for other leagues, which negotiate their player licensing through their unions. But the UFC doesn't have a union, so its lower class is left to fend for itself. This could work out if the base rate for appearances is solid, but that's another unknown.\nIt's also believable that the UFC has to some degree nailed its dick to the floor. Back in 2006, the NBA signed an 11-year apparel deal with Adidas for $400 million. At the time, that was a ton of money. But $36 million per year will look a lot different by the time the deal is up in 2017\u2014with its new broadcast deal, that might not even be one superstar's annual salary. (Manchester United will make $130 million per year from Adidas for its merchandising rights.) Then there's the NFL, which got out of its 10-year $250 million Reebok deal a few years back and entered a five-year $1.1 billion deal with Nike. The scale moves quickly, that is to say, and for an upstart like the UFC that should reasonably be looking to scale even more rapidly than more established leagues, six years is a long time.\nAny strain from a six-year apparel deal would fall short of the dilution that came out of the seven-year broadcast deal with Fox\u2014which to be fair was for a reported $100 million a year, bigger than MLS's combined deals and within docking range of the NHL's $200 annual broadcast rights\u2014but it's still long enough, early enough in the growth cycle of the sport, that if one thing or another shakes out wrong there are going to be some serious problems.",

        "title": "Opening a Gateway for Girls to Enter the Computer Field - The New York Times",
        "raw_content": "DealBook | Opening a Gateway for Girls to Enter the Computer Field\nVenture Capital | Special Section Spring 2013\nWHEN Julia Geist was asked to draw a picture of a computer scientist last year, the 16-year-old sketched a businessman wearing glasses and a tie. Looking around at her classmates\u2019 drawings, she saw similar depictions of men.\nNow, Ms. Geist said, \u201cI see a computer scientist could be anyone\u201d \u2014 including herself.\nYou're the Boss Blog: Finding a Coder When You Don\u2019t Know How to Code\nHer new perspective is a victory for Girls Who Code. As part of an eight-week program with the Manhattan-based nonprofit group, Ms. Geist and 19 other high school girls learned software programming, public speaking, product development and other skills to prepare them for jobs in the technology industry.\nGirls Who Code is among the recent crop of programs intended to close the gender gap in tech by intervening early, when young women are deciding what they want to study. With names like Hackbright Academy, Girl Develop It, Black Girls Code and Girls Teaching Girls to Code, these groups try to present a more exciting image of computer science.\nThe paucity of women in the tech industry has been well documented. Even though women represent more than half the overall work force, they hold less than a quarter of computing and technical jobs, according to the National Center for Women and Information Technology based at the University of Colorado, Boulder. At the executive and founder levels, women are even scarcer.\nA variety of advocacy and networking groups have tried to address the problem by coaching women on building start-ups, raising venture capital and climbing the management ranks at big companies. Most recently, Sheryl Sandberg, the chief operating officer of Facebook, published a best-selling book, \u201cLean In,\u201d that was a call to arms for women to pursue their ambition in the workplace.\nEven so, the number of women entering technology has been declining. Women earn just 12 percent of computer science degrees, down from 37 percent in 1984. Tech executives, recruiters and financiers say women simply do not walk through their doors seeking work.\n\u201cWe actively recruit women, but there\u2019s just not that many women who want to do this kind of work and are equipped to do the work from their education,\u201d said Adam Messinger, the chief technology officer at Twitter, who is on the board of Girls Who Code.\nSo the industry is trying a new approach. It is tackling the problem long before women start their careers, by teaching girls the basic skill of writing code.\n\u201cWe have to get women on the right side of the computer,\u201d said Margit Wennmachers, a partner at Andreessen Horowitz, a venture capital firm in Silicon Valley. Knowing a programming language is becoming essential not just for engineers, she added, but also for women who want to be tech executives or deal-makers or pursue other careers, from medicine to fashion.\nGroups like Girls Who Code are part of a national movement to recruit young people to software development and remain competitive with other economies. A new group, code.org, for example, has people like Mark Zuckerberg of Facebook and Bill Gates of Microsoft pushing for all schools to teach children to code.\nBut the need is most urgent for girls, said Reshma Saujani, who founded Girls Who Code last year. Roughly 74 percent of girls in middle school express an interest in engineering, science and math, she said. But by the time they get to college, just 0.3 percent choose computer science as a major.\nMs. Saujani, the daughter of two engineers who were refugees from Uganda, developed the idea while she was running for Congress, a race that she lost. As she traveled from school to school on the campaign trail, she said she saw the same thing over and over: computer science classrooms without a single girl.\n\u201cI saw the ability of technology to either enhance poverty or reduce it, and I saw girls not getting the same opportunities boys were,\u201d said Ms. Saujani, who is now campaigning for public advocate in New York City. \u201cBack in the \u201960s, you didn\u2019t have gender parity in law or medicine, but something happened and women started opting into these professions. We have to do that in computer science.\u201d\nResearchers say many factors contribute to girls\u2019 reluctance to pursue computing as early as elementary school, including discouraging parents, inadequate resources for teachers and a lack of exposure. Studies have shown that girls imagine computer scientists as men working alone in a basement and can\u2019t relate.\nIt\u2019s a significant disconnect, given how women embrace technology. Female consumers make up a majority of users for many tech products. For technology companies, women also offer a diverse perspective, which can help bolster the bottom line.\n\u201cBeing a software developer gives you a lot of insight into the world and business and gives you a lot of career opportunities,\u201d said Sara J. Chipps, the co-founder of Girl Develop It, and the chief technology officer of Levo League, a Web start-up for professional women.\nAfter hatching the idea for Girls Who Code, Ms. Saujani and Kristen Titus, its executive director, started going to tech companies and asking what skills they wanted in female applicants. Mr. Messinger at Twitter, for instance, said he wanted to see more candidates who knew how to break a problem into parts and describe it in logic terms, which was incorporated into the program\u2019s curriculum.\nThe response from companies was encouraging. The group raised money from Google, Twitter, Intel and other technology companies. Some also agreed to host workshops for Girls Who Code at their offices and volunteered employees to teach courses.\nTo develop the classes, the women recruited academics and people who worked in tech to design the curriculum, which includes topics like robotics, animation and mobile app development, as well as skills like introducing yourself in a business setting and presenting your product onstage. By Week 2, students learn what an algorithm is and how to write one to program a robot. By Week 5, they build their own mobile apps.\nThen there are the intangibles, like eating in the Twitter cafeteria, pitching the apps the students built to Twitter\u2019s engineering team and listening to notable female executives talk about what it was like to be the only girl in their computer science classes. Last year, so many girls said they wanted to become forensic scientists \u2014 as in the hit television show \u201cC.S.I.\u201d \u2014 that the group took a field trip to the New York Police Department to see how they used computers.\nNikita Rau, 17, another Girls Who Code graduate, said seeing female programmers on field trips taught her that anyone could be a coder. At big companies like Google and small ones like Foursquare, she said she was inspired by seeing successful women, and engineering problems scrawled on white boards \u2014 not to mention \u201cthe amazing food.\u201d\n\u201cAs we walked through Facebook and Twitter, I could imagine myself sitting there coding throughout the day,\u201d she said. \u201cI\u2019m not afraid to be one of the first girls to go into one of those fields. I want to pursue this career and maybe be a C.E.O. of a company.\u201d\nGirls Who Code is still in its infancy. In 2012, it taught 20 girls in New York. This summer, the program will accept 160 girls in New York, San Francisco and Detroit. The group is packaging its curriculum so schools and community organizations can teach it, too.\nGirls Who Code is already showing signs of progress.\nIn March, it hosted a recruiting event at Google\u2019s New York office for 200 girls, parents and teachers. Last year\u2019s graduates showed off the apps and Web sites they built and attendees were treated to Google\u2019s famous perks, including a demo of its Internet-connected glasses and a spread of beef sliders and chicken fingers.\nMs. Geist, the high school student who had never taken a computer science course, built an app for finding people with similar interests on Twitter.

        "title": "What Is The Military Diet - DietDetermined",
        "raw_content": "Just what is the military diet exactly? Many have been wondering this lately, given how much it\u2019s been talked about. Those in the health and wellness industries have certainly been talking about it, and everyone has likely heard press reporters in the background running pieces titled \u201cwhat is the military diet\u201d in trying to cover the growing trend. For those that have missed the information so far, this article is a brief primer on this diet.\nThe big claim around this diet is the idea that following it can help the user lose weight fast. In fact, results are expected to be as many as 10 pounds of weight loss within the first seven days. The diet is also popular because it\u2019s free. Unlike many other diets, it does not revolve around a particular book, supplement requiring purchase, or even an expensive food as some plans do.\nAnother name for this diet is the 3-day diet. The central idea is that a follower would stick to a rigid 3-day meal plan, which is then followed by a period of 4 days off. This becomes a repeated weekly cycle which is continued until a person achieves their target weight. The thinking is that this diet was designed by United States armed forces nutritionists looking to get soldiers into peak physical condition as quickly as possible. That\u2019s the claim behind the diet, but in truth, no governmental institution or part of the military actually acknowledges any affiliation with this diet. Other names for the military diet include the army diet, the navy diet, and even the ice cream diet.\nEach seven-day period of this diet has two phases. The first 3 days include a set meal plan of low calorie intake across three daily meals with no snacks occurring in between. The total calories allowed runs from 1,100 to 1,400 per day. That\u2019s a lot lower than many adults need. The other 4 days should just focus on eating healthy with low intake of calories remaining, just not as strictly.\nBreakfast for day one revolves around a slice of toast sporting 2 tablespoons of peanut butter along with an optional cup of tea or coffee and one half of a grapefruit. Lunch involves another slice of toast with half a cup of some tuna and another optional beverage. Dinner is a cup of green beans with 85 grams of meat, half a banana, a small apple, and one cup of plain vanilla ice cream. Days 2 and 3 are similarly restrictive for each meal.\nThe other four days of the week do not have specific food group restrictions, but portion limits should be kept small, and total calorie intake should stay under 1,500 daily.\nThe diet does prove effective for practitioners that follow it, but that\u2019s because the caloric intake is so low to start with. The sustainability of the diet is debatable, given how restrictive it is, with long-term caloric deprivation of such magnitude possibly slowing the metabolism of some. Also, those with nut allergies and other food sensitivities must find substitutes for specific foods in the strict 3-day phase. As always, this diet should only be done in conjunction with a person\u2019s physician or doctor consultation and supervision.",

        "raw_content": "Dig Interpretations\nDeeper is better..\nEarth Intruders (by Bj\u00f6rk)\n\u201cThere is some sort of solution to the situation today in the world that is above and beyond religion. I had this dream that a tsunami of people would take over the justice in the world. So there is this kind-of naive hope that there is some sort of balance gonna be.. you know all these billions that are starving and then the billions being spent on warfare.. maybe we just have to drop this idea that we can actually separate us from nature, and be these kind-of perfect humans\u2026 I\u2019m not so sure that it\u2019s such a good idea and we just have to accept that we are a human tribe and we can unite in some sort of a global beat.\u201d [1]\n\u201cI mean, the human race, we are a tribe, let\u2019s face it, and let\u2019s stop all this religious bullshit. I think everybody, or at least a lot of my friends, are just so exhausted with this whole self-importance of religious people. Just drop it. We\u2019re all fucking animals, so let\u2019s just make some universal tribal beat. We\u2019re pagan. Let\u2019s just march.\u201d [2]\n-Bj\u00f6rk (2007)\nThe ancient Voodoo of West Africa has been revived by Bj\u00f6rk to remind us of a time of general harmony and sacred connection between human beings and Mother Earth. Ten thousand years ago, before the monotheistic religions and patriarchy hijacked humanity, there was a strong general bond between people and their environment. This is reflected in the very name \u2018Voodoo\u2019, which is derived from the African word \u2018Vodun\u2019 meaning \u2018spirit\u2019.. not God, but spirit. This is an important distinction to make.\nVodun Bocio sculptures, similar to the shadowed dancers in the Earth Intruders video. They represent the forces in the spiritual realm which directly affect the physical world of nature.\nRather than spending energy on becoming closer to God (thus separating themselves from the natural world) as seen in the dominant Abrahamic religions of today, these ancient people accepted that God was unreachable and unknowable. They didn\u2019t seek to understand the mystery of God, who he/she was, or even how humans came into existence. There was no prayer offered to God, only service offered to the intermediaries.. the spirits who control all aspects of the natural world.. that is, the world that matters to humans. Instead of worshiping their supreme creator, they placed the highest importance on these intermediary spirits known as the Loa. Shamans in these ancient tribes understood that the Loa, through ceremonial dance and other rituals, could take possession of their bodies for short periods of time, during which great wisdom could be communicated to the rest of the tribe.\nEarth Intruders recaptures the wisdom of these ancient people with respect to Loa and the spiritual realm. From its universal, tribal beat to its sloshing-water sound effects, it is certainly one of the stand-out pieces on the Volta album. It touches on the fractured/schizophrenic nature of modern humanity, describing it as a \u201cbeast with many heads\u201d that is steamrolling over the Earth creating unnecessary turmoil and imbalance. As Bj\u00f6rk noted above, modern people are lost in their efforts to become something that is beyond human and separate from the environment. In trying to differentiate man from beast, man has actually become the beast by polluting the environment with large-scale industrialization in an effort to support an ever-increasing population size. The shift from a pagan, female-centric outlook to a God-fearing, male-centric outlook has taken a great toll on the Earth, as most of us are now aware. So we need to revive the \u201cnecessary voodoo\u201d and reverse this terrible shift in thinking/spirituality that has taken place.\nThe cover of the Volta album (left) symbolizes a feminine-led human world, emphasized by the moon on her right shoulder. The human mind is still very complex and always reaching higher, and stretching.. pushing the limits. However, the large, heavy, cool-colored feet symbolize the wisdom of the pagan revival. We should keep our feet on the ground and remember that we are, as Bj\u00f6rk said, all animals who are meant to march with each other as one. The artwork on the Voltaic album (right) reinforces the feminine energy that needs to wash over the world, as seen in the vaginal-shaped drops.\nA final interesting thing to note is that there appears to be a general similarity between the beings that Bj\u00f6rk calls Earth Intruders and the intermediary beings often seen during DMT/Salvia Divinorum experiences. These beings have been observed throughout history in many different forms. They come in dreams (like Bj\u00f6rk\u2019s dream which provided the initial imagery for the song). They come to Vodun priests during ceremonial dances. They came to the Irish as \u2018faeries\u2018. And they come to modern psychedelic users in the form of gnomes or elves (you may have heard the term \u2018machine elf\u2018 before). Often times, as you are in the process of breaking through to the spiritual realm, you run into hundreds/thousands (i.e. a tsunami) of happy little elves who are very excited to see you, and help pull you through to the other side. Making regular contact with these intermediaries is important to maintaining a healthy relationship between humans and the natural world. This is the necessary Voodoo that will free us from the metallic carnage we\u2019ve created and get us back on a healthy track toward peace. Vi\u00f0 elskum \u00feig, Bj\u00f6rk.\nPsychedelic elves compared to images of Bj\u00f6rk\u2019s Earth Intruder costume.\n[1] The Volta podcast series, https://youtu.be/WtuqesHa0lc\n[2] Interview from Pitchfork, http://pitchfork.com/features/interviews/6592-bjork/\nCategories: Song Interpretations\t| Tags: bjork, bjork earth intruders meaning, bjork volta, dmt, earth intruders, machine elves, pagan, salvia divinorum, vodun, volta, voodoo\t| 4 Comments\nLand (by Patti Smith)\nSweeter than the flesh of sour apples to children,\nThe green water penetrated my pinewood hull\nAnd washed me clean of the bluish wine stains\nAnd the splashes of vomit,\nCarrying away both rudder and anchor.\nAnd from that time on,\nI bathed in the poem of the sea,\nStar-infused and churned into milk,\nDevouring the green azures; where,\nEntranced in pallid flotsam,\nA dreaming drowned man sometimes goes down.\n-Rimbaud (1871)\nAbove, is an excerpt from Arthur Rimbaud\u2019s well-known poem entitled Le Bateau ivre, which translates to English as \u201cThe Drunken Boat\u201d. When I read these few lines for the first time a few days ago, I was instantly cast back into the exact same surreal world where Patti Smith held me the first time I heard Land. There is perhaps no finer example of Patti\u2019s long-developed artistic skill than the brutal, but hopeful imagery she captured in this piece; and similarly, what Rimbaud (her most important influence) captured in Le Bateau ivre.\nLand is a song that could probably be renamed as the title track of the album, Horses, as it certainly stands out as the centerpiece. Quite simply, this song is about transcendence. The \u201ccoiled snakes\u201d of Hermes guide young Johnny through the major transitions in his spiritual life: from his darkest point to his most enlightened state, then finally on to his death. The specific images chosen to express these ideas were recently identified by Patti in her book, Just Kids, which discusses her life up to and during the making of Horses.\nSpecifically, she describes Land as having \u201cwild-boy imagery fused with the stages of Hendrix\u2019s death\u201d. I\u2019m sure Jimi Hendrix needs no introduction for you, but I will say that the \u201cwild-boy\u201d imagery she\u2019s talking about are themes from The Wild Boys, a book by William Burroughs. The chosen name for the character in the song, Johnny, stemmed from a character in this book. The Wild Boys takes place in the future where police states basically control everything through organized military force, and a gang of boys attempts to fight back. The theme of rebellion against the norm (which often marks the beginning of spiritual transcendence) is common to most of Patti\u2019s work leading up to the making of Horses.\nThis is most likely the reason Burrough\u2019s images appeared to Patti in her first LSD trip, which she also describes in her book as being the basis for the symbolism used in Land. Her close friend and boyfriend for a period, Robert Mapplethorpe, encouraged her to trip with him one night. Over the course of their intimate relationship, Robert revealed that he was actually gay, and later went on to hustle in New York City for a time to earn money (which made Patti extremely nervous for his safety). Similarly, tripping for the first time in a big, dark, dirty, smelly city would make anyone nervous like Patti was, as she described having a \u201cdemon vision of the city\u201d. This strange mix of ideas brings us to the narrated introduction to Land, where the tale of Johnny begins.\nAs I\u2019ve found when interpreting other songs, it really doesn\u2019t matter who the character is exactly.. the important thing is what Johnny represents, which is many things. He represents youth. He holds the ideals of America and freedom in his heart. He represents all the strange goodness that came out of the 60\u2019s.. a goodness that couldn\u2019t live on forever (as marked by the deaths of many of its most esteemed figures, like Hendrix). He also represents someone who has been beaten down spiritually by the human world around him. This is most obvious during the initial scene described in the song where Johnny is pushed against a locker and raped by another boy (an image likely born out of Patti\u2019s fears with respect to Robert and his hustling). This is also made especially clear in more recent performances of Land, where an extended intro is given. Here are some examples..\n(Royal Festival Hall, London \u2013 2005)\n(Herodeion, Athens \u2013 2013)\n(Rio Theatre, Santa Cruz \u2013 2015)\nIn these performances, you can see how Patti is really making a point to expand on the original recorded introduction. She talks about how Johnny feels the \u201cdiscordant rhythm of his generation\u201d.. \u201cthe material senselessness of his age\u201d.. everything that provokes him and beats him down is converging in the hallway. This angers him and makes him want to go crazy and fight against it. This is the first transcendence in the song; the transcendence from being on a low spiritual plane, and then being blasted into a higher vibrational frequency where Johnny is no longer held down by the ills of society. The spirit of the American 60\u2019s flows through him, and he is surrounded by white horses with flaming noses. They are a symbol of Johnny\u2019s pure, and righteous rage in knowing that he\u2019s never had that untainted freedom that we all wish for in life.\nIn this state, Johnny enters the real \u201cfree world\u201d where he is absorbed in the pleasures of dance (with the incorporation of verses from an older song, Land of a Thousand Dances), sex (\u201cdig your baby sister\u201d), and drug use (\u201cfill my nose with snow\u201d). These things help him feel immune to the senselessness of modern society, as if he is now bathing in the sea of possibility. You\u2019ll notice that although Patti is describing Johnny\u2019s transcendence, she\u2019s also describing her own transcendence during the trip. She gets an image of a black horse (which she specifically identifies as female) with yellow hair who comes to her in the night. The black mare guides her through the darkness, and leads her to the stairway (\u201cup there\u201d) to the sea of possibility. The waters of the sea wash away the stains of hopelessness that society has vommitted on her. She sees that there is no God watching over us and judging our actions..\nThere is no land but the land\nThere is no sea but the sea\nThere\u2019s no keeper of the key\nExcept for the one who seizes possibilities\nWe are all responsible for our own actions, and there is much freedom to be found in this idea, as stated in other songs on the album like Gloria (\u201cJesus died for somebody\u2019s sins, but not mine\u201d). It\u2019s a wonderful realization and a nice place to be in.\nHowever, for Johnny, the bliss of the great sea doesn\u2019t last. Through all of it, he still sees that life is filled with holes and pain, which he can no longer deal with in a realistic, healthy way. This is the final transcendence he makes towards his ultimate death, likely similar to the way we imagine Hendrix dying. The pain and pressure Johnny feels from society ultimately beats him down, causing him to commit suicide by slitting his throat. His vocal chords (really, his voice and identity) shoot up and away, and we are left with a man in a bed who nobody can hear. He feels himself disintegrate and go into a black tube.. he\u2019s just a dreaming drowned man who has finally gone down.\nGo Rimbaud\nCategories: Song Interpretations\t| Tags: horses, land, patti smith, patti smith horses meaning, patti smith land meaning, rimbaud, transcendence\t| Leave a comment\n(written by Josh Homme & Mario Lalli, performed by Queens of the Stone Age)\nDead bull with a life on the low,\nI\u2019ll be massive conquistador.\nGimme soul, show me the door.\nMetal-heavy, soft at the core.\nGimme, Toro.. gimme some more.\nPressurize, neutralize..\ndeep fried, gimme some more.\nSpace flunky, four on the floor..\nfortified with the liquor store.\nThis one\u2019s down, gimme some more.\nShrunken head, I love to adore.\nB-Movie, gimme some gore.\nA few months ago, the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS), in a disgusting display of protest and religious-driven militancy, decided to destroy one of the most sacred places in the original cradle of human civilization: the ancient Assyrian city of Nimrud. After taking control of the areas surrounding Nimrud, ISIS deemed it to be a city that symbolized a blasphemous culture and history of idolatry which spat in the face of the \u201cone true god\u201d, who they call \u2018Allah\u2019.\nPrior to the rise of the Abrahamic religions (Judaism, Christianity, and Islam), idolatry was a common practice in many cultures. People worshiped a great variety of symbols which they thought to be vital to their existence, such as the sun, the moon, the rain, fire, etc. They also identified various animals as having qualities that were important to human development and survival. One animal in particular, considered sacred in many civilizations, was the bull.\nThe Minotaur of Crete (left) and the Egyptian god Apis (right)\nThe bull was appreciated early on as a symbol of superhuman strength and virility. The Assyrians of Mesopotamia (and other Bronze Age civilizations such as the Minoans and Egyptians) worshiped the bull as a sacred being who served as a protector. Hence, the entrances to many religious temples were flanked by large statues that had the body of a winged bull and the head of a human. To the Assyrians, this protective deity was known as a \u2018Lamassu\u2019. Statues of Lamassu were placed everywhere, including the ancient temples at Nimrud which were preserved right up until ISIS took control of the city and destroyed them.\nLamassu statues (left) similar to the ones destroyed by ISIS in Nimrud (right).\nThe image of the Lamassu influenced the newer Abrahamic religions, starting with the Jewish prophet Ezekiel, who claimed to have seen God. In Ezekiel\u2019s vision, God appeared in a fiery chariot that came out of a strange windstorm and a burst of light. God\u2019s chariot was being driven by four strange creatures, each having four distinct faces: that of a human, eagle, lion, and bull. Each quadruple-faced being also had wings, similar to the Lamassu imagery found in Assyrian temples. This imagery was later adopted by Christianity, as shown in the many artworks involving the Four Evangelists, one of whom (Luke) is represented by a winged bull.\nThe Book of Kells (left) representing the Four Evangelists (with Luke in the bottom-left corner), compared with Raphael\u2019s interpretation of Ezekiel\u2019s vision (right).\nThe bull\u2019s significance in ancient cultures is most clearly seen in the development of astronomy, as it\u2019s image was recognized in the night sky in the constellation that we know today as \u2018Taurus\u2019. As with other signs of the Zodiac, Taurus was considered to be the dominating force/energy for a period of time that heavily influenced human development and behavior. This period is usually referred to as an \u2018astrological age\u2019. The Age of Taurus is estimated to have occurred between approximately 4500-2000 BC, when the above-mentioned bull-worshiping cultures began to emerge. The end of the Taurean Age has been expressed in many artistic paintings and sculptures, the most famous of which is the slaying-of-the-bull by Mithras (a figure in Roman mythology). The slaying of the bull is significant, because it is a symbol of man conquering his animalistic desires/behaviors as he becomes a more thoughtful, and spiritual being. In other words, the end of Taurus marked a significant advancement in human thinking and spirituality.\nThe Taurus constellation (left), and the slaying-of-the-bull by Mithras (right).\nIt\u2019s funny though how humans, even with all our intellectual/emotional advancements over time, still have a longing for the past. We continually reach into history and find refreshed meaning and significance in ideas and behaviors that are generally no longer in practice, and often shunned by modern society. Hence, the creation of You Think I Ain\u2019t Worth a Dollar, but I Feel Like a Millionaire. This song is, in part, about the revival of Taurus and the spirit of the bull. It\u2019s the voice of a human who doesn\u2019t want to completely slay his inner bull.. a person who generally operates on an adrenaline-driven, animalistic level. They feel great and powerful, but in reality, they are over-consuming, raging addicts who need to keep feeding themselves to maintain that feeling of strength. So they flood themselves with unhealthy, lowest-common-denominator-type stuff like alcohol, gory b-rated movies, deep fried food, etc.\nYet somehow, the voice in the song is wiser than its Bronze Age ancestors. It sees the bull in a new way.. as a strong, fearless being who can be totally at peace in a field eating grass one minute, but can become a raging, insanely-destructive animal an instant later. It sees the bull as a metaphor for our contradictory/dualistic nature. We\u2019re heavy/hardcore like metal sometimes, but soft/sensitive at other times.. pressurizing, then neutralizing.. shedding the wisdom of old, becoming dissatisfied with the new, then reviving the old in a more mature, spiritual way.\nMay the Lord bless his land\nwith the precious dew from heaven above\nand with the deep waters that lie below;\nwith the best the sun brings forth\nand the finest the moon can yield;\nwith the choicest gifts of the ancient mountains\nand the fruitfulness of the everlasting hills;\nwith the best gifts of the earth and its fullness\nand the favor of him who dwelt in the burning bush.\non the brow of the prince among his brothers.\nIn majesty he is like a firstborn bull;\nhis horns are the horns of a wild ox.\nWith them he will gore the nations,\neven those at the ends of the earth.\nCategories: Song Interpretations\t| Tags: bull, lamassu, mithras, qotsa, qotsa millionaire, queens of the stone age, taurus\t| Leave a comment\nYou Can\u2019t Win (by Tomahawk)\nif you wanna bleed, then come along with me\nwe\u2019re only half-breeds, but we\u2019ll be home-free\nso mark your territory, \u2018cuz it\u2019s on\nput your badge on, we gotta mow \u2019em down\nwe got a feelin\u2019.. it\u2019s even breathin\u2019\nwe know how cheap our freedom is..\nput on my best white shirt, walkin\u2019 down the street like a speed ball\npurrin\u2019 like a cat out on early parole\nwell I ain\u2019t takin\u2019 no more, cuz it\u2019s on\nand every power abused, and every item consumed, now it\u2019s on\n\u2018cuz it\u2019s on\nthe laws of history, they\u2019re puttin\u2019 me on, cuz they\u2019re clear, cuz it\u2019s on\nand it\u2019s on..\nwe are the police, and now we\u2019re gonna start a riot\nnow you\u2019ll see just how we\u2019re gonna start a riot\nwe are the police, and now we\u2019re gonna start a riot..\ndon\u2019t know where to begin, it\u2019s all over again, and it\u2019s on\nand if you think you\u2019re free, then you better believe that it\u2019s on\nand we\u2019ll drink anything if it burns and it\u2019s strong, \u2018cuz it\u2019s on\nand the crap of the cream ain\u2019t gonna fuck with me, \u2018cuz it\u2019s on\nand we ain\u2019t gonna propagate for you, \u2018cuz it\u2019s on\nthey\u2019re gonna quit makin\u2019 money \u2019till we\u2019re taken care of, \u2018cuz it\u2019s on\nsaw it on TV, and now we\u2019re gonna start a riot\nsaw it on TV, and now we\u2019re gonna start a riot..\nThe title of this song really says a lot. \u201cYou can\u2019t win\u201d basically means that as long as monetary system is in place, you can\u2019t \u201cfight the power\u201d and win: you can only trade places with those who are currently in power. The song is, on the one hand, a satirical presentation/analysis of an Alex Jones-style \u2018Info Warrior\u2019 (for lack of a non-sickening term). The words are mostly spoken by someone who is pissed off that the New World Order is here. But their only answer is to join some activist group, protest/terrorize/whatever, and eventually trade places with those in power (e.g. \u201cwe are the police, and now we\u2019re gonna start a riot\u201d).\nOn the other hand, the lyrics are also indicative of a voice coming from a higher state of consciousness.. a voice that represents *both* the Info Warrior and those people who are currently in power. It\u2019s as if the voice is observing the Info Warrior from above and is casting judgement on him, but is also relating to him at the same time. For example, the voice calls himself (and those he\u2019s preaching to) a \u201chalf-breed\u201c, like a eugenicist might describe the average citizen. He also talks about getting the idea of starting a riot/protest from the TV.. again, as if to devalue the idea and show how silly it is. Yet, the same voice talks about the abuse of power, and how the masses should stop propagating the false idea that we need money to live.\nSo it\u2019s like a weird duality being represented in these lyrics. The voice relates to the Info Warrior\u2019s feelings of disgust with the NWO, and how anger can be strengthening and constructive in a way. But it also recognizes that the monetary system is the overriding issue, and no amount of protest or anger will likely stop it. It\u2019s like the narrator knows he\u2019s being silly/naive/short-sighted but can\u2019t let go of the strong feelings that distract him from seeing the bigger picture and a better solution.. kinda like the general human condition, wouldn\u2019t you say?\nCategories: Song Interpretations\t| Tags: alex jones, eugenics, info warrior, infowars, mike patton, tomahawk, tomahawk mit gas, tomahawk mit gas meaning, tomahawk you can't win, tomahawk you can't win meaning, you can't win lyrics\t| 4 Comments\nReckoner (by Radiohead)\nYet how superb, across the tumult braided,\nThe painted rainbow\u2019s changeful life is bending,\nNow clearly drawn, dissolving now and faded,\nAnd evermore the showers of dew descending!\nOf human striving there\u2019s no symbol fuller:\nConsider, and \u2019tis easy comprehending \u2014\nLife is not light, but the refracted color.\n-Faust II\nThe color of Goehte\u2019s masterpiece has rippled through the medium of Radiohead with their album, In Rainbows. The character, Faust, observes that life is not about some great search for divine light, but rather, it is about the practice of living with the enlightenment of God at your back; thus allowing it to guide you forward through your organic life, and not lead you down a dead-end path of obsession. This is essentially what the phrase \u201cIn Rainbows\u201d means. It is the recognition that the source light which governs our world cannot really be seen nor fully understood by human beings (\u201cdare not speak its name\u201c). Although we have moments of clarity and deep understanding, these moments are generally temporary and don\u2019t last very long. As Thom Yorke said of the album, \u201cIt very much explores the ideas of transience. It starts in one place and ends somewhere completely different.\u201d [1] This is the transient nature of human consciousness being described by the character Faust in the above passage.\nSo who is The Reckoner?\nAt a concert in Glendale, Arizona, Thom Yorke stated:\n\u201c..it [the song, Reckoner] was born out of a very trippy dream, one of those ones you wake up from and go, \u2018aww man, I don\u2019t want to wake up from that, ever.'\u201d [2]\nThe Reckoner is the one who wakes you up when you wish to remain in your current perceived reality or dream-state. It is the transient way of true nature that we all need to reckon with and accept. For Faust, this means that he must live up to his bargain with Mephistopheles, who represents the Devil. Note that Mephistopheles is mentioned by name in another song on the album: Videotape.\nAs the story goes, Faust becomes so obsessed with discovering the true nature of life, he summons Mephistopheles to help him in this quest. Mephistopheles agrees to serve Faust right up until the moment he reaches the height of human wisdom/happiness/fulfillment; at which point, he will claim Faust\u2019s soul. Faust agrees to the deal because he actually thinks it\u2019d be impossible for him to reach that height.\nUltimately, however, Faust does experience a moment of pure happiness, and so Mephistopheles attempts to claim his soul\u2026 that is, Faust is woken up from his happy slumber. Luckily, Faust is rescued by a group of angels who escort him to heaven.\nThe theme of transience can also be seen in the previous song on the album, Faust Arp (\u201cit\u2019s on again, off again, on again\u201c)\u2026 another obvious reference to the tale of Faust. The sound of the music is also heavy with percussion and transient in that it folds over on itself between piano & guitar portions.\nThe most accessible metaphor that I can see for this idea is how people tend to want to escape from reality (that\u2019s the \u201cbittersweet distractor\u201c), and would rather call in sick on their day of reckoning. They, unlike The Reckoner (or Buddha, if you prefer) cannot overcome the division between self and other (i.e. subject and object, which make for the transient/dualistic ways of human beings). Again, we have moments of clarity and understanding, but they don\u2019t last.. \u201clike ripples on a blank shore\u201c.\n[1] Chris Mincher (1 July 2007). \u201cRadiohead\u2019s Thom Yorke and Ed O\u2019Brien\u201d.

Some people use it to signify evil.. others consider it a symbol of rejuvenation. This is probably one of the primary reasons it was chosen for this song. The image of the snake is something that really hits us on an unconscious level. The way it hisses and slithers is generally unsettling (or at least, intriguing) to almost everyone, and this is consistent with the unsettling, voodoo-like sound effects used in the song.\nThe deadly Black Mamba snake\nAt its core, Long Snake Moan uses the snake as a symbol for transcendence, especially with respect to the concepts of religion, \u201cright\u201d vs. \u201cwrong\u201d, life vs. death, and traditional gender roles. In a 1995 interview, PJ Harvey said:\n\u201cI look towards religion as possibly one means to finding an answer, to making sense why we\u2019re here. That\u2019s what drives the creative force, to make sense of one\u2019s life. A very natural place to look is in that divine area, because it\u2019s so strong and has been here long before us.\u201d\nAlthough not a religious person herself, PJ understands the importance of religion in its pure, non-corrupted form where both \u2018God\u2019 and \u2018Satan\u2019 become part of the same abstraction. In other words, God and Satan are essentially the same thing on a certain level: they both represent something that transcends the boundary between the physical and the spiritual. They interact with the physical realm, but they aren\u2019t restricted to it.\nLEFT: The god Hermes, known as a free traveler between worlds, holding his caduceus staff with serpents.\nRIGHT: William Blake\u2019s interesting depiction of Lazarus slithering up from the underworld (like a snake).\nThe narrator in the song is identifying herself with this concept. This is why she says \u201cCall me Lazarus\u201c, because Lazarus transcended the boundary between life and death after he was resurrected by Jesus. This is also noted in other lines throughout (e.g. \u201cOver, under\u201d and \u201cHell\u2019s low, God above\u201c). She also includes the religious ideas of baptism (\u201cdunk you under deep salt water\u201c) and obligation/fidelity to God (\u201cmake ready my veil\u201c).\nHer baptism, shown on the cover of To Bring You My Love\nThinking about this from a more human/female perspective, the term \u201cLong Snake Moan\u201d seems to be a reference to both 1) the narrator\u2019s libido, and 2) her declaration of independence from a controlling relationship (that\u2019s where \u201cOut of your spell\u201d comes from). She has transcended the gender boundary by taking on the dominant sexual role in the relationship (a role usually played by the male). This role-reversal is accomplished through her \u201cvoodoo\u201c, where she summons the power of higher transcendental beings (like God and Satan). In this way, she resembles the snake and takes on its symbolic characteristics.\nWhat is particularly beautiful about this song, imo, is that PJ incorporates the religious idea of transcendence into her own broader abstraction, where the transcendence of morality (right vs. wrong), mortality (life vs death), and gender (male vs. female) are all weaved together to form an extremely rich artistic expression.\nCategories: Song Interpretations\t| Tags: Hermes, Lazarus, long snake moan, pj harvey, pj harvey long snake moan lyrics, pj harvey long snake moan meaning, transcendence, William Blake\t| 1 Comment\nSchism (by Tool)\nThe primary, identifiable theme going on in Schism appears to be the alchemical concept most commonly known as \u201csquaring the circle\u201c. Hence, the interlude..\nThe poetry that comes from the squaring off between\nAnd the circling is worth it, finding beauty in the dissonance\nSquaring the circle is a subject that can\u2019t easily be summed up in a small article, but I\u2019ll provide some quotes to start with:\n\u201cThe \u2018squaring of the circle\u2019 is one of the many archetypal motifs which form the basic patterns of our dreams and fantasies. But it is distinguished by the fact that it is one of the most important of them from the functional point of view. Indeed, it could even be called the archetype of wholeness.\u201d\n-Carl Jung from Mandalas (1955)\n\u201cThe intent behind alchemy and the alchemical work is personal individuation, which is wholeness. In order to attain wholeness, it is said, one must square the circle\u2026 To square the circle is to see equally in the four directions, and so to be whole\u2026 To find a new equilibrium where inner, outer, above, and below are balanced and in harmony, is to be One\u2026 The viscous flame of oneness comes burning away all division of spirit and flesh, and the diamond body becomes the eternal fuel of this emancipative, destructive union.\u201d\n-Jack Haas from OM, Baby! (2005)\nSquaring the circle is also referred to as \u201cquaternity\u201d or \u201cquadratura circuli\u201c, and is represented in countless artistic works going back to ~1000 AD (and probably before then). It is, as Jung and Haas point out, a symbol of wholeness and balance between the inner portion of the Self (i.e. the spirit), the outer portion of the Self (i.e. the body), the heavens above, and the Earth below.\nA Mandala is a visual representation of the concept of \u2018squaring the circle\u2019, most notably pointed out by Jung in his works.\nThe video for Schism, in particular, brings out this theme in a way that the song by itself cannot. It takes us through the process of purifying the mind and the body, in order to allow \u201cthe viscous flame of oneness\u201d to dissolve the boundaries between spirit and matter, between male and female, between good and evil. This is visualized in the final moments of the video.\nIn the beginning, we see a circular shaped metronome that bounces up from the floor and becomes suspended in the air, where it starts to oscillate back and forth. This is symbolizing a spirit that is in a state of confusion and uncertainly, thus it sways to and fro because it cannot reach a state of calm equilibrium. In other words, the circle has not yet been squared.\nWe then fade into a room that\u2019s very square-like and gray. This represents the world of matter.. the physical realm where the spirit is held within a body. You\u2019ll also notice there are wires that stretch across the room, symbolizing the lines of communication that are gray and stale (meaning they are not working properly, as described in the lyrics).\nThe circular metronome (left), symbolizes the spiritual Self. The square room (right), symbolizes the physical/material Self.\nSimilar wires are seen stretching out from a female figure\u2019s head, who now comes into frame. Only her wires are red, meaning they are healthy and open for connection. As she wanders around the room, she starts to sink into the floor. At the same time, she notices an opposing male figure\u2019s feet rising up out of the floor, as if he\u2019s stuck in a state of total unconsciousness. She pulls herself out of the floor and is also able to pull the male out by his feet thereafter. When she does this, we can see that she rotates him around on his head, forming a circle on the floor. This expresses her desire to form a higher, spiritual connection with the man, which is clearly seen as the camera fades out and displays the two figures forming the shape of a compass. The compass is often shown and referred to in the works of alchemists, because it metaphorically represents one of the tools that can be used in the process of squaring the circle and reaching a higher state of being.\nMale and female forming a compass shape (left) compared to the alchemist\u2019s concept of the squared circle (right).\nThe female then carries the still unconscious male back to the first room we saw in the beginning, and lays him down. She moves close to him (again, indicating a desire to communicate), reaches out toward him with her arms, and pulls them back toward herself.. like she\u2019s trying to pull him closer, but there are no wires available to hold on to. She\u2019s just pulling at the air and is only miming the act of connection.\nThe male continues to remain asleep, as he starts to drift away from the female. She pursues him into a new room, which has a large tree-shaped crack in the wall where the male is hiding (the cracks are clearly another symbol of a breakdown in communication). The female then begins to walk on all fours and soon, the male emerges from the crack in the wall and does the same thing. This is symbolic of male and female communicating at a sub-human level\u2026 at the primitive, animal level. That\u2019s why they walk on all fours. They\u2019re not yet at a point where they can connect spiritually, so they can only connect through the flesh (i.e. matter).\nMale hiding in the crack (left) then emerges to walk on all fours (right)\nNow we reach a crucial point in the video, where the female moves in close to the male again (only this time they\u2019re both standing upright). You\u2019ll notice her movements are very twitchy, again indicating that\u2019s she\u2019s vibrating at a higher frequency and desires higher-level communication. She then grabs his ear, and pulls it out along with a rectangular chunk of his head. This represents the process of purifying the mind, as we later see a small goblin-like creature emerge from the extracted head-piece.\nLater on, we see another cancerous goblin being extracted from the male\u2019s neck, symbolizing the purification of the body (in addition to the mind). Once this occurs, the male figure becomes much more vibrant and life-like. At the same time, the female becomes fearful and weak as she falls to the ground. While she\u2019s lying there, the parasitic goblins start to feed off of her as they had been previously doing to the male. Fortunately, she\u2019s strong enough to sit up and remove them from her face so that she doesn\u2019t become consumed by them as he was.\nThe head and neck extractions, symbolizing the purification of mind and body.\nThis process of purification through bodily extraction/operation is common in strong psychedelic experiences and also in many instances of alien abduction. Often, you\u2019ll read about people claiming they were operated on by aliens who extracted things from their bodies. This also occurs during DMT and Salvia Divinorum trips, where you run into therianthropic figures who reach into your body as if to purify you and show you what is needed in order to reach a higher level of being.\nA therianthropic, elf-like figure (left) often seen during DMT/Salvia trips, compared with the familiar alien image (right) as described by many abductees and eyewitnesses.\nAs the female lays back down, we see more pinkish wires start to grow out of her face. They grow so fast and thick that she has to pull them away from her face. When she does this, we see that her face now looks very similar to the male\u2019s. Afterwards, the male and female turn to face each other and become merged into a single being with a large head. Male and female (i.e. spirit and matter) have now become one, as we see the viscous flames rain down upon them, symbolizing the union of opposites. The squaring of the circle is now complete, and the spiritual/astral Self has finally reached a state of equilibrium. This is confirmed by the reappearance of the metronome we saw in the beginning of the video, which you\u2019ll notice is no longer oscillating back and forth. This being has now completed the process of individuation, and is in a harmonious, balanced state of oneness.\nMale and female merging into one, thus squaring the circle.\nCategories: Music Video Interpretations, Song Interpretations\t| Tags: alchemy, Jung, mandala, quaternity, schism, squaring the circle, tool, tool schism analysis, tool schism meaning, tool schism video, tool schism video analysis, tool schism video meaning, union of opposites\t| 12 Comments\nFancy (by Yeah Yeah Yeahs)\nI find it in the atlas\nor flippin\u2019 over old news\ncheck what\u2019s in the trash bag\nwe\u2019re just another part of you\nI beg your pardon?

They\u2019re both interwoven. It\u2019s not like one is acting and the other is for real. Both are what appeared and came out from the first performance we ever did to the last one, and I\u2019m not exactly sure where it comes from and I can\u2019t ever actually predict what\u2019s going to come out. Both of them come from their respective places inside of me, but I think they are just two sides of the same personality. But one wouldn\u2019t exist without the other. They balance each other out.\u201d\nI believe Karen is talking about the conflicting pieces of the human personality that constantly pull you in different directions (depending on mood, setting, circumstance, synergy, etc.). This is basically what causes your persona to change, perhaps many times, throughout your life. Sometimes, a single piece (or a subset of pieces) will just fit you perfectly in terms of your level of consciousness, age, experience, and current aspirations. So you put that mask on because.. it just fits.\nHowever once you do this, you sort-of forget about all the other pieces that are still there, even though they\u2019ve been run over and hidden by the current dominating piece of the persona. You just jump on this one piece as if it\u2019s your own private island, and treat all the others as old news and throw them in a trash bag.\nThen one day, something happens that makes you remember the other pieces of your personality that have been pushed down for a long time. So you freak out, and things start to get very complicated (i.e. \u201cfancy\u201c). Now, you have you decide whether you\u2019re going to jump to the next island or deal with the other pieces and try to integrate them into your life in a balanced, harmonious way.\nThis is the conversation that\u2019s taking place here, in Fancy. It\u2019s the dominating piece of a persona running into the others that were previously-hidden and pushed into the unconscious. This is why almost every line is doubled on the vocals; this represents the different pieces of her persona violently clashing with each other. This is also why she wears a mask during this song in some of the live shows from the Show Your Bones era. It\u2019s a total expression of the friction that\u2019s created by the complicated nature of the human mind, and the potential for balance if the conflicting pieces can somehow become integrated as one.\nCategories: Song Interpretations\t| Tags: fancy, meaning, show your bones, yeah yeah yeahs\t| Leave a comment\nBeauty and the Beast (by David Bowie)\nWeaving down a byroad, singing the song\nThat\u2019s my kind of highroad gone wrong\nMy my, smile at least\nYou can\u2019t say \u201cno\u201d to the Beauty and the Beast\nSomething in the night, something in the day\nNothing is wrong but darling, something\u2019s in the way\nThere\u2019s slaughter in the air, protest on the wind\nSomeone else inside me, someone could get skinned\nMy my, someone fetch a priest\nI wanted to believe me, I wanted to be good\nI wanted no distractions like every good boy should\nNothing will corrupt us, nothing will compete\nThank God heaven left us standing on our feet\nI think the meaning of this song can be most easily explored through Jungian concepts and analogies. Beauty and the Beast is essentially about Anima/Animus possession due to an unassimilated Shadow. I won\u2019t get into great detail, but you can Google \u201cAnima possession\u201d if you want to learn more than what I\u2019m about to tell you in this article.\nTo give a very brief overview of Jung\u2019s model of human consciousness, it starts with a \u201ccollective unconscious\u201d from which every individual ultimately operates. It is the totatlity of the human experience that everyone\u2019s personal unconsious is derived from. Within this unconscious realm lives certain archetypes, like the Shadow and Anima/Animus. These archetypes are symbols for different aspects of the Self. The Shadow is all the darker aspects of the Self that we tend to dislike and project onto others. The Anima is the personification of all the feminine qualities in a man (simililarly, the Animus is the personification of all the masculine qualities in a woman). Again, Google those terms for more details on what each archetype means.\nHere, the concept of \u201cAnima possession\u201d is shown graphically. You can see that the man\u2019s inner Anima has taken possession of his Ego, thereby causing him to operate unwillingly from his unconscious. (Ref: Barbara F. McManus, February 1999, http://www2.cnr.edu/home/bmcmanus/anima.html)\nBut when you read the lyrics with these concepts in mind, the meaning of the song is more easily seen. This is a man\u2019s Ego attempting to communicate with his inner Anima, whom he calls \u201cdarling\u201c. She consequently addresses him as \u201cweakling\u201c, which is how the man feels when he is possessed by his Anima. This is why Bowie has the group of female backup singers say the line \u201cweakling..\u201d. I realize that the lyric sheet that comes in the cd booklet says it\u2019s \u201cliebling\u201d rather than \u201cweakling\u201d, but I hear \u201cweakling\u201d when I listen to the song. Other sources agree with that assessment, so you\u2019ll have to be the judge. Remember though, that this is only 1 line out of many others that relate this song to Jung\u2019s attempt at describing the complex nature of the psyche, and the mysterious dualities held within.\n\u201cTurned towards the world, the anima is fickle, capricious, moody, uncontrolled and emotional, sometimes gifted with daemonic intuitions, ruthless, malicious, untruthful, bithcy, double-faced, and mystical.\u201d\nThis is what Bowie is describing in the second verse when he says \u201csomething in the night, something in the day\u201c. This is the \u201cdouble-faced\u201d duality aspect of human consciousness that Jung described in his works. \u201cBeauty and the Beast\u201d is another way of expressing this duality. Every archetype that lives in our unconscious has this quality. For every enlightened Ego there is a dark Shadow lurking beneath the surface. For every welcoming/positive aspect of the Anima that is consciously integrated into a man\u2019s life, there is a hostile/negative aspect of her that can take possession of the man\u2019s consciousness without him becoming aware of it. That\u2019s why he says \u201csomeone fetch a priest\u201c, indicating that he\u2019s possessed and needs an exorcism or else \u201csomeone could get skinned\u201d (meaning he could have a violent, emotional outburst, which is common for men who are possessed by their Anima).\nThe duality of human nature is shown here on the cover of the Heroes album. One hand is placed on himself (symbolizing the \u2018subject\u2019 part of the duality concept), and the other hand is placed out in front of his eyes (symbolizing the \u2018object\u2019 part of the duality concept).\nThis duality is also expressed on more of a group level when he says \u201cthere\u2019s slaughter in the air, protest on the wind\u201c. This line is likely influenced by Bowie\u2019s time spent in Berlin in the 70\u2019s, where one could clearly see a collective split in Germany\u2019s psyche resulting from the Second World War. The \u201cslaughter in the air\u201d represents the static part of the psyche.. the part that clings to the status quo and doesn\u2019t want things to change. The \u201cprotest on the wind\u201d represents the dynamic part of the psyche that wishes to shake things up and change the status quo. Again, this is a duality in man being expressed in more group-oriented/political terms, but it\u2019s also a reference to the personal psyche as well. The Shadow/Anima tend to act as the \u201cprotest on the wind\u201d in our personal unconscious, disrupting the Ego\u2019s behavior as described in the lyrics.\nThe 4 stages of Anima development. From left-to-right: Eve, Helen, Mary, and Sophia are all representations of the inner Anima.\nThis is reinforced by the interlude where he says \u201cI wanted to believe me, I wanted to be good, I wanted no distractions\u201c. This is the man explaining how he\u2019s trying to be a good person, but he hasn\u2019t done any work on himself psychologically. He\u2019s been ignoring his Shadow & Anima, and doesn\u2019t fully understand himself as a result. He always thought of himself as a \u201cgood boy\u201d because he\u2019s been dismissive of his own dark side. His Shadow is unassimlated, thus rendering him unable to clearly communicate with his Anima and reach the next step in his process of individuation. He\u2019s still \u201cweaving down a byroad\u201d without knowing how to get back on the main highway to the Self.\nFinally, I thought it would also be interesting to note that the fairy tale, Beauty and the Beast, is in fact a story about Animus possession in a woman, and has been referenced by Jung and others when describing this phenomenon. It\u2019s a long story, so I won\u2019t get into it here, but that\u2019s also something you might want to check out. I don\u2019t necessarily think Bowie\u2019s song relates directly to the fairy tale, but I think it serves to show how a deeper understanding can come from looking at this song through Jungian terminology and ideas.\nCategories: Song Interpretations\t| Tags: anima possession, archetypes, berlin, david bowie, david bowie beauty and the beast lyrics, david bowie beauty and the beast meaning, heroes, Jung\t| Leave a comment\nMayday (by Tomahawk)\ngotta tug on the hanging man\nsuck you clean\nturn the penile into pentane\nflee your cell\nbecause I could chop it down\nyou can\u2019t disappear\nbecause you\u2019re already gone\nno trumpet sounds when I am coming\nno drum beats as a mourning ear\nI\u2019m standing on the roof of the world\nmayday..\nyou won\u2019t be saved\nfrom the builder in the morning sun\nyou won\u2019t be spared\nfrom cheating at your solitaire\nkeep all that soul\nput the freedom in past form\nbut now you\u2019re laughing at me\nI\u2019m putting in my two weeks\u2019 notice\nas of two fuckin\u2019 weeks ago\nI\u2019m not in the running anymore\nMayday is similar to God Hates a Coward in the sense that it\u2019s spoken by a similar, threatening voice (which is supported by the crunching, threatening guitar riffs and drum beats). It is the voice of the Illuminati\u2026 of the Occult. Hence the chorus, informing you that his true presence/knowledge is generally hidden (i.e. \u201cno trumpet sounds\u201d to let you know he\u2019s coming). When he says \u201ctug on the hanging man\u201c, he\u2019s referring to the folklore surrounding mandrake and terminal erections (also known as \u201cangel lust\u201c). When a man is hanged, he will typically get a post-mortem erection and ejaculate. It was/is believed that this process would stimulate the growth of mandrake on the ground beneath. Hence the line \u201cturn the penile into pentane\u201c, which is a reference to this type of alchemy and also to the album title itself: Mit Gas, the German way of saying \u201cwith gas\u201d.\nThe first verse is basically describing an old magical practice of attempting to artificially grow human beings in soil that\u2019s been fertilized by human semen; the point being to create a more \u201cperfect\u201d (i.e. android-like) human being; meaning one who is neither male nor female, thus assumed to be more easily managed and controlled (read my article on God Hates a Coward for details). This is another reason he uses the line \u201cno trumpet sounds when I am coming\u201c. Legend has it that the mandrake would emit a nasty, lethal scream when it was dug up, thus requiring the person uprooting the plant to blow a trumpet in order to avoid certain death. This also pairs with the following line, \u201cno drum beats as a mourning ear\u201c, which is a pun on the \u201cmourning ear trumpet\u201d worn by rich widows in the 19th century as a hearing aid.\nOver time, this mandrake/android idea has morphed into the more recent \u201chermaphroditic agenda\u201d that you see going on today. The lines separating male from female have become increasingly blurred, and gender identity is getting weaker and weaker. The album artwork reveals this concept in the gold-colored tribal designs.\nThese designs appear to contain representations of male/female hybrid mandrake plants (with 2 bulbs on one side representing the male, and 3 on the other side representing the female).\nThe mandrakes are shown here, highlighted in green.\nMale and female mandrake representations shown in the Hortus Sanitatis from the late 15th century. Note that the female version has 3 bulbs, whereas the male version has 2 bulbs.\nThe mandrake is important here, because it\u2019s symbolic of the influence that occult practice had on Hitler and other high-ranking officials in the former Nazi regime (this influence can still be seen in most of the major power centers today). This is partly why, I believe, the song is entitled \u201cMayday\u201c. It\u2019s a reference to the mayday distress call but it\u2019s also a reference to May Day (a.k.a. the Beltane festival, or \u2018Walpurgisnacht\u2019 in Germany), which is a very important occult holiday. It\u2019s also interesting to note that Hitler committed suicide during Beltane in 1945 (although the Russian invasion forced his hand more so than anything else).\nThese magical/occult references tie in together with the general German/Nazi/Illuminati theme going on in Mit Gas. This is also revealed through the shining crown shown on the same inner page of the cd case.\nThe crown shown in the Mit Gas album artwork (left) compared with the Prussian crown of Wilhelm II (right).\nThis design resembles the crown of Wilhelm II, the last emperor of Germany who ruled a few decades before Hitler. Note the shining beams of light that radiate out from the top of the crown, indicating the Illuminati connection to the Prussian throne.\nKeeping these ideas in mind, the meaning of the song becomes clearer. This is a wizard/magician/illuminati member/whatever-the-fuck taunting you and explaining how you should do what he\u2019s doing, and get down with magic/spells so you can \u201cflee your cell\u201d and become a living god (that\u2019s why he\u2019s \u201cstanding on the roof of the world\u201c). He\u2019s also warning you that if you don\u2019t do as he is doing, you\u2019re going to die with the rest of the common people when the New World Order takes over and bankrupts all the nations of the world. When he says \u201cyou won\u2019t be saved from the builder in the morning sun\u201c, he\u2019s talking about Lucifer (who is sometimes referred to as the \u201cmorning angel\u201c.. the giver of light\u2026 the one who illuminates man and gives him special powers). But it can also be read as \u201cyou won\u2019t be saved from the builder in the morning, son\u201d as if he\u2019s speaking to you like you\u2019re a child. Patton uses lots of double entendres like that, so it\u2019s difficult to really sum up songs like this; especially when the vocals are purposely obfuscated for artistic effect. However, I hope this leaves you with some food for thought in regards to Mayday, Mit Gas, and Tomahawk.\nCategories: Song Interpretations\t| Tags: German, mandrake, mike patton, Nazi, occult, tomahawk, tomahawk mayday, tomahawk mayday lyrics, tomahawk mayday meaning, tomahawk mit gas, tomahawk mit gas meaning\t| 1 Comment\nMusic Video Interpretations\nSong Interpretations",

        "raw_content": "Home / Irresponsible Borrowing Leaves Africa on Brink of Debt Crisis \u2013 Again\nIrresponsible Borrowing Leaves Africa on Brink of Debt Crisis \u2013 Again\nIrresponsible government borrowing has caused debt in many African countries to reach crisis level. Over the past 10 years, more than $80 billion in bonds have been issued to thirsty European investors by governments in Africa south of the Sahara, with public debt now making up about half of GDP. Bilateral loans, especially from China, add to the crisis. Now, a decade after a continent-wide write off, the debt is increasingly looking toxic with each passing day thanks to rampant corruption within governments, a cost that citizens are often forced to bear through higher taxes.\nAlso read: Bitcoin Trading Flourishes on Whatsapp Following African Exchange Closures\nAfrica\u2019s Debt Problem Hitting Crisis Levels, as Continent Signs Away Resources to China\nAfrican governments have a taste for the finer things of capitalism, which often involves putting citizens up for austerity and signing away strategic resources as collateral to offshore loan sharks. In the early 1980s, governments borrowed heavily from the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund and the Paris Club until they were blacklisted for failing to honor their obligations.\nBut this has not discouraged them from borrowing. A willing lender, China, is in town, casually flying loans to eager African leaders. Loans from the Asian economic giant are especially appetizing to most regimes because they come with no strings attached as far as issues of human rights, governance and democracy are concerned.\nChina\u2019s aggregate loans to Africa reached $124 billion by end of 2016 from just a few millions 16 years earlier, according to figures compiled by the China-Africa Research Initiative (CARI) at Johns Hopkins University School of Advanced International Studies in the United States. Several African countries such as Angola, Ethiopia, Sudan, Kenya and the Democratic Republic of Congo, topped the loan beneficiary list.\nAngola received about $21.2 billion, much of it going into the oil sector, building new cities and other infrastructure developments. To better manage its natural resource wealth, like oil, and to help facilitate social and economic development, Angola set up a sovereign wealth fund.\nThis is the fund, which Jose dos Santos, son of former president Eduardo, who managed it, is accused of pilfering to the tune of $500 million. Dos Santos has since been arrested and placed under \u201cpreventive detention.\u201d However, the allegations against him reflect more a widespread continental problem, in which high ranking public officials help themselves to state funds, putting the country at risk of defaulting on external debts. Often, citizens are forced to pay for indiscretions by a few corrupt individuals in government through higher taxes.\nZambia \u201cSold\u201d to the Biggest Lender\nIt is crucial to highlight that debt has not always translated to better living conditions for ordinary Africans. In most cases, government officials\u2019 borrowed affluence starkly contrasts the breakdown of social services and the austerity that comes with the day of reckoning. Zambia, perhaps, epitomizes Africa\u2019s evolving debt problem, not only in the sense of rising toxic Chinese loans, but borrowing in general.\nChina in Zambia\nIndications are that 28% of Zambia\u2019s debt is owed to China. Rumors have swelled that the Asian economic powerhouse may attach some of the Southern African country\u2019s infrastructure if it defaults. Smart recolonization might just be underway. \u201cGiven the lack of transparency by the Zambian government on its borrowing, there is a real danger that Zambia too might fall into the Chinese debt trap,\u201d said Sara Longwe, chairperson of Zambia\u2019s Civil Society Organisations.\nGovernment officials in Zambia have been accused of fueling debt through corruption and inflating tender prices. Reports say much of the money Zambia borrowed was stolen. At some point, prices on fire engines inflated by about 70% to above $1 million each, while road tenders doubled in price surreptitiously. But officials blame falling copper prices, Zambia\u2019s economic mainstay, for the debt default.\nDebt \u2013 the Surgical Warhead Piercing Through the Heart of African Economies\nElsewhere in Africa, data shows that more than $80 billion in bonds have been issued to investors in Europe by governments in Sub-Saharan Africa, with public debt now making up about half of Gross Domestic Product (GDP). According to the World Bank\u2019s \u201cAfrica Pulse\u201d report released this week, debt rose in about two-fifths of African countries in 2017 and was above 60 percent of GDP in one-third of the countries.\n\u201cDuring 2018, government debt rose rapidly in Angola and Zambia, partly due to continued currency depreciation. Chad finalized the restructuring of its oil-collateralized debt, which would reduce the country\u2019s debt service payments. In addition to the rise in debt ratios, change in the composition of debt has made many countries vulnerable to changes in financing conditions,\u201d the World Bank said.\nIn Zimbabwe, external debt stood at $11.3 billion last year, nearly 80 percent of the country\u2019s gross domestic product (GDP), with the country having piled up arrears and interest, and penalty charges on existing payment arrears.\nFor a country that piled up $5.2 billion debt in less than 10 years, since dollarization in 2009, the Zimbabwe government\u2019s failure to guarantee basic services, such as safe drinking water, paints a typical conundrum. The World Bank noted that as countries have gained access to international capital markets, and non-resident participation in domestic debt markets expanded, non-concessional debt has increased.\nAccording to the report, non-concessional financing accounted for more than 50 percent of total public debt in six countries \u2013 C\u00f4te d\u2019Ivoire, Ghana, the Republic of Congo, Sudan, Zambia, and Zimbabwe \u2013 and more than 30 percent of total public debt in several other countries such as Chad, Senegal, Mozambique, and Ethiopia.\nDebt sustainability has generally deteriorated in several countries in Africa. By the end of last year, eight countries were listed as in debt distress under the World Bank\u2013International Monetary Fund Debt Sustainability Framework.\nEconomist Dambisa Moyo\u2019s \u201cWinner Take All: China\u2019s Race for Resources and What it Means for Us\u201d casts China as the hungry protagonist, mapping examples such as a Chinese company\u2019s purchase of one of the world\u2019s most copper-rich land masses from Peru. With the season of goodies continuing with no end in sight, debt may well be the more surgical warhead in the sprawling empire\u2019s war chest, which, of course, is ably aided by runaway corruption within governments.\nWhat do you think about Africa\u2019s debthird situation? Let us know what you think in the comments section below.\nThe post Irresponsible Borrowing Leaves Africa on Brink of Debt Crisis \u2013 Again appeared first on Bitcoin News.",

        "raw_content": "To enter to win Trevor's painting, \"203 CLASSIC FLOWERS 5\" go to Daily Paintworks and click on the link at the top of the page announcing their interview.\nFrom Trevor's DPW Gallery:\nI have worked full time in the advertising industry for over fifty years... from message boy to operating my own advertising design and finished art studio employing fifteen artists. The majority of my work was design and finished artwork for brochures, catalogues, packaging and press advertising in both colour and black and white. I have been fortunate to have worked in studios in Australia, Canada, U.S.A., England and Germany. I have used the skills I have gained on my travels to produce thousands of designs and pieces of finished artwork. (click to read more)\nWhen I was a thirteen year old at the local Australian State School, we read a book called \u201cThe Drums of Mer\u201d written by Ion Idriess. In the weekly art lesson, we were asked to illustrate something that impressed us from the book. Using our limited range of pastels, we produced our drawings.\nTwo of my class mates made a lasting impression on me.\nOne drew a dark storm scene... black clouds, lightning and angry waves crashing onto a tiny outrigger canoe. The other boy drew a soft, azure blue, idyllic, tropical seascape with sunset, islands and palm trees.\nThey produced two completely different interpretations.\nThey had used the same pastels that I had used but their work was so different and exciting. What a challenge.\nI was hooked then and I\u2019m still hooked now.\n203 CLASSIC FLOWERS 5\nEnter to win by clicking on the link at the top of the DPW home page announcing Trevor's interview.\nNo Stops. From age seventeen, I have worked as an artist in press, print and packaging combining layout, design, illustration, typography, finished artwork and photo direction. I even wrote copy for radio and T.V. commercials when required for advertising campaigns.\nMy first paid job was for a chiropodist who needed signs to be placed on the risers of the steps up to her rooms.\nI have used most mediums and my work is realistic/impressionism.\n223 ORIGINAL LIFE SKETCH 7\nPencil, charcoal, oil pastel and acrylic are favourites but I will test drive anything new.\nComputer graphics. There\u2019s a whole new world out there. It\u2019s just a different pencil.\n\u201cHave a go\u201d is a great Aussie saying and people who \u201chave a go\u201d inspire me. It doesn\u2019t matter what field they are working in.\n040 PARKS & GARDENS 8\nProcrastination is something I don\u2019t know much about. I\u2019m happiest when I\u2019m busy and I always have half a dozen projects on the go.\nArt is my life. I do find time to play golf twice a week, swim twice a week and look after our grandchildren whenever needed. If I\u2019ve been very busy and can\u2019t get into my studio during the day, I can work through the night to satisfy my creative urge.\n143 MOD GIRL 2\nI really don\u2019t know. They just keep coming. I am able to design and paint in my head and I like nothing better than to dream of painting.\nI get disappointed when something I have worked on doesn\u2019t work out to my satisfaction. Having worked to extremely tight deadlines in advertising, I know I can\u2019t win them all so I just have another go.\n122 FLOWERS ABSTRACT 2\nLearning to enjoy myself and paint for my own pleasure gives me a great feeling of freedom.\nFinishing a painting to the best of my ability. It amazes me as to which paintings get the most hits on the DPW website. It gives me joy to have the grandchildren ask me to \u201cshow them how to paint.\u201d To pass on that love of drawing is a gift all around.\nTo enter to win Paulette's painting, \"Snow Spaniel\" go to Daily Paintworks and click on the link at the top of the page announcing their interview.\nFrom Paulette's DPW Gallery:\nI am a sports and portrait artist living in Cheshire, England who loves drawing sports scenes involving movement. I sold my first professional drawing in May 2014, since then the demand for my cricket & sports drawings have increased dramatically, becoming collectibles. I am now a professional artist working from my home studio. (click to read more)\nI did not start drawing until my late thirties. My children were given a box of oil pastels for free, nobody seemed interested in using them so I thought I would give them a go. I was not sure how to use them so then began a journey into discovering mediums, how to use them, what they look like in a piece of art. I think I am still on that journey six years later but interestingly, I do not use oil pastels anymore.\nNot so far, once I started I have never stopped. Some days are quieter than others though.\nSnow Spaniel\nEnter to win by clicking on the link at the top of the DPW home page announcing Paulette's interview.\nQuite a lot. I initially used oil paints which I really love but soon shelved due to young children and the length of time it takes to dry. I have used watercolours, charcoal, soft pastels and pastel pencils. With genres, I have tried landscapes, still lives, portraits and figure drawings.\nWatercolours quickly fell away; I did not like the fixed nature of them as I like to change my mind. My artists eye has improved greatly and I won't stick with a piece if it doesn't feel right. I have to keep changing it until I am happy. Oil paints I hope to try again with now that I have my own studio space. My true loves though are charcoal and pastels. I work with both. Charcoal is fantastic for doing my sports drawings, it allows me to show movement really well. I also feel pretty smug that I can accomplish something wonderful with a stick of wood and a piece of paper. Pastels and pastel pencils are also a great medium, they allow me to be flexible and I love the subtle blends.\nWhippet Style\nFor genres, from the moment I started to draw I wanted to do portraits. I think I liked the romantic ideal of having a sitter and drawing them. This is something I have not done enough as I tend to work from digital photos more than anything. My sports drawings come from my love of sport - particularly cricket and hours spent watching my children play. I love the twist of bodies and the awkward shapes that sports people get into. My pet drawings came from commission requests. They were going well, but I always got really nervous when a new commission request comes in. I try to draw independently some tricky animal drawings to help my drawing. I found I liked sourcing my own beautiful images and transforming them into art.\nA great or interesting pose, a moment in a sports event that captures movement and a key turning point. The artists I love are those who represent beauty in art, who bring out the wonderful elements that we all see. I love Renoir and Rembrandt and Carl Larsson.\nI had to look up what procrastination means, I think it means distraction or putting things off. I have not drawn this weekend because I have spent almost all of it discovering lightroom and photoshop, only by chance because I wanted to know how to show my scanned drawings with a white background. That led to three days kind of wasted but not really because I know a bit more now. So for me, I am guilty of going off on tangents and not staying focused. That said, it is probably a tangent that I needed to take.\nThis is a constant angst for me. I work part time as well as having three teenagers, a dog and two cats. I find it hard to settle down to draw when I know that there is other stuff to do. The best thing that I have found lately is to ensure I work on a timetable. I have three art days in a week and I now have those three days carefully planned to fit in website/email work, drawing, framing and promoting. The difference was immediate when I began to follow my timetable: a clearer mind with everything running fairly well.\nI am a great lover of Pinterest, Twitter and Instagram. I follow a lot of sports contacts and I am always on the look out for great moments caught on camera. I draw from life when I can, a sketch pad at a cricket match is a wonderful way to people watch. The animal drawings are easy inspiration, as they are so lovely, the more natural looking the better though. I prefer to capture certain 'looks' or moments with animals and people. Probably the most common theme that captures my eye is movement, the more complicated the better!\nAgain a differing of opinion. Good advice I have read is to stick to what you are good at or enjoy and become brilliant at it or completely contrary advice is to keep trying new things to maintain your interest and passion. I tend to do the latter. I like to keep up to date with new materials and techniques, I follow many artists and publications, go to galleries, etc. It's what I like to see in other people's work that makes my own style and if I keep on admiring and evaluating other people's art then mine also improves.\nI've recently taken up graphite drawing in order to improve my sketching skills. Never a big lover of graphite, which I felt tended to look dull and dirty, it has come as a surprise how much I love it and indeed I am now marketing it as a new medium/style for me. I think being able to use charcoal so well has helped me take up graphite so easily. Also, I have recently discovered Nitram charcoal which is wonderful and allows me to be more accurate whilst still retaining the soft beauty of charcoal.\nWhen the finished piece is the same image or better than the picture I had in my head.\nTo enter to win Patti's painting, \"Golden Delicious Light\" go to Daily Paintworks and click on the link at the top of the page announcing their interview.\nI love to paint. I feel like it's what I'm meant to do. I paint every day because it makes me happy. And if I can make someone else happy in the process, that's the icing on top.\nI want my paintings to be like a poem -- just enough to tell the story. Impressionism with a sense of abstraction. Strong, decisive brush strokes. And exciting, unexpected use of color. I love to explore the beauty of nature and everyday things that we tend to take for granted. (click to view gallery)\nI have loved making art since I was a child and art was always my favorite subject in school. I started to pursue it in college, but got discouraged early on by an insensitive teacher. I didn\u2019t pick it up again until I was in my 30s, taking lots of drawing classes in the evenings.\nI wished I had pursued art in college, as now I believe I could have made a happy living of painting and teaching. It feels like what I was meant to do. The other obstacle is that I spent a lot of time learning how to draw, probably too much time, and put off learning to paint because, to be honest, I was a bit afraid of it.\nI didn\u2019t start painting until I was 53 and wondered why I ever waited so long to try it because I love it so much. But it is very challenging and takes lots of time, effort and practice. I always tell people it\u2019s like learning to play a musical instrument. You would never expect to pick up a violin and play beautifully right away. It\u2019s the same way with painting; it takes years of practice to be skilled and proficient. It takes years to integrate all you learn along the way, such as color mixing, temperature, values, composition, drawing and designing a painting.\nGolden Delicious Light\nFortunately, I started out painting with Linda Hendrickson, who teaches acrylic painting in a fun way. You start with what she calls a \u201cdoodle start,\u201d just flowing paint on first in different colors and marks, not trying for any sort of representation. It really loosens you up. She also uses a very bright color palette, which makes learning to paint even more fun. Then you paint the subject over top of the loose underpainting, using the underpainting to make up some of the subject.\nI switched over to oil painting later on after taking classes with Trisha Adams and Kurt Schwartz. I love the way oil paint flows onto the canvas and makes it easy to blend and lose edges. Acrylic is a bit less forgiving in that way.\nI also took a class from Lisa Daria recently and she uses acrylics to paint small florals in a very abstract style without any initial drawing. I tried that for a while, but I missed oil paints and since I spent so much time learning to draw, I\u2019m a very good at it and enjoy it, so I went back to a more representational style. I love when some of the drawing (calligraphy) shows through in the final painting.\nI have painted portraits, figures, landscapes, florals, pets, birds and still life. Portrait and figure painting is much more difficult as you have to match the likeness of your subject. Other subjects are more forgiving, so I paint mostly florals and still lifes. I have also recently started painting more pet portraits, which I enjoy because I love animals and the clients are so thrilled to have a painting of their beloved pets.\nMany Colored Peaches\nI\u2019m looking forward to getting better at painting florals. I have a passion for flowers, but am finding them very challenging to paint. It\u2019s a bit harder to see the values and keep it simple. I also want to do more plein air painting and pet portraits. Right now, I\u2019m exploring how to paint a snowy winter scene. Then I want to practice painting roses. I love Qiang Huang\u2019s roses.\nI am most inspired by painters with a loose, painterly style. I think it\u2019s difficult to achieve because it takes a lot of practice to know how to lay down the deliberate, bold brushstrokes it requires. I love the impressionistic aspect of this style because it turns the artist into somewhat of a poet, only describing what needs to be described, in as few strokes as possible.\nSunlit Sunflowers\nIt looks like reading too many books, watching too many videos, taking too many workshops and not just putting in the time to paint. Sometimes it looks like getting up too late so I don\u2019t have time to paint.\nI work full-time at a day job, but I work from home so that helps. I get up extra early and paint for at least an hour before I start my job. I also carve out time on Sunday mornings to paint. These are my non-negotiable painting times. I also do at least one task each day to keep up with my art business such as posting to DPW, Facebook and Pinterest and mailing purchased paintings. Saturday is my time to varnish and frame paintings. I guess you could say I\u2019ve created a structure for myself because I realized I am not happy unless I\u2019m painting so I need to put it first by scheduling it into my daily life.\nI think I avoid my art because I\u2019m afraid of failure. I\u2019m sure it\u2019s the same for most artists. Having a routine, painting at the same time every day and not taking it so seriously helps. No one is going to die if a painting isn\u2019t successful. I also expect to feel a little fear and frustration along the way. It\u2019s part of the process.\nSometimes, if I\u2019m really avoiding my art, I tell myself to just do something for five minutes. Of course, that usually turns into more, but it gets me over the hump.\nMini Maddie\nI just stay aware of what I feel inspired to paint, kind of going with the flow. Sometimes I feel inspired by what another artist is doing.\nI keep it fresh mostly by not over painting; stopping before I kill the painting and lose the freshness. I also like to let some of the under painting show through.\nEileen's Bakery\nRight now I\u2019m learning to slow down and study my subject and think about the design first (such as the focal point and what to exaggerate) before I start painting. I\u2019m learning how to really observe. I think that is what makes a truly great artist. I\u2019m also finding my style as an artist. It takes a while and it\u2019s not something you can force.\nI just love the creative process of painting \u2013 how the painting sort of takes over and tells you what it needs. It\u2019s very magical.",

        "title": "How Is Social Anxiety Different From Generalized Anxiety? - Danielle Forshee, Psy.D, LCSW",
        "raw_content": "In recent years there have been many changes to the classifications of anxiety disorders. However, generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) and social anxiety disorder (SAD) or social phobia continues to coincide within the same indicative category.\nAlthough the two share many features, they are two distinct issues in themselves. People with GAD can experience physical symptoms, as do those with social anxiety disorder. Catastrophizing is dominant in both types of disorders as well.\nThe features shared between the two can include persistent or excessive anxiety that is inconsistent to an actual threat. The \u2018threat,\u2019 however, is different between the two disorders. Generalized anxiety and Social anxiety can occur together, which also increases the probability that the person will also experience depression or another type of anxiety disorder. These can include obsessive-compulsive disorder and post-traumatic stress disorder.\nDifferences In Thinking\nAlthough the thought patterns can be similar between the two disorders, it is the content of the thoughts that distinguishes between the two. GAD sufferers worry about a broad range of topics from health and finances to relationships and daily stress, where SAD sufferers worry more about social engagements like meeting new people, speaking in front of people or being observed or watched. GAD sufferers do commonly have social worries; however, their focus is not on the anxiety of meeting new people or social situations, but more focuses on ongoing relationships with friends, family or partners.\nSAD sufferers, however, typically centers on the thoughts of negative evaluation or rejection. People with social anxiety will usually find it challenging to begin conversations for fear of saying \u2018something stupid.\u2019 SAD also makes it difficult for sufferers to date due to the anxiety or fears experienced about possible humiliation or embarrassment.\nGiven that emotions and thoughts of the anxiety cycle overlap, the behavioural variances between GAD and social anxiety disorder are subtle. Although the underlying reasons for it differ between the two disorders, both conditions are categorized by a high degree of avoidance.\nThe average age of onset for GAD is 31, and for social anxiety disorder, it is age 13. However, most people with GAD have symptoms long before they are treated.\nAt times when people are experiencing many social transitions of adolescence and adulthood, the stresses of these times often aggravate social anxiety symptoms. However, the tougher responsibilities of being an adult exaggerate GAD symptoms.\nOlder sufferers of SAD can often experience embarrassment and anxiety relating to their appearance or physical impairments like hearing problems. This can often lead to minimal social interaction.\nGAD in older adults is more commonly related to physical symptoms, rather than psychological, and they are more likely to have uncontrollable anxiety about their health or the well-being of their family members.\nTreatments For GAD & SAD\nBecause depression is also a common side issue related to both types of anxiety, treatments tend to overlap for the three. Many suffer from both SAD and GAD as well as depression, and it is also common for GAD sufferers to also experience PTSD simultaneously.\nMany medications are helpful for both anxiety and depression, and other forms of therapy like cognitive behavioral therapy, rational emotive behavioural therapy and behavioral activation are used widely for treatments. Behavioral therapies help sufferers to address thought biases to eliminate the avoidant behaviour associated with anxiety.\nPrevious Previous post: Effects Of Positive Thinking\nNext Next post: Bustle \u2013 11 Interesting Lesser-Known Symptoms Of Anxiety Therapists Want You To Know About",

        "raw_content": "Did you meet your business goals in 2010? As we begin a new year, now is the ideal time to reflect on what happened in 2010 in order to clearly plan for the changes you want to make in 2011.\nFollowing your assessment, focus on the areas of your business that will impact your bottom line while also serving your clients, employees and other stakeholders.\nIn an effort to grow as a company, continue to keep your employees educated. To do so, you must evaluate each one and assess which skills they need to build to help your business operate more effectively. To prevent boredom and complacency, employees need to learn. This fosters new opportunities for personal growth and the growth of your business. Mentoring your staff is important, as is putting them in touch with accomplished peers in the industry.\nOne of the most important qualities a businessperson must have to be successful is good communication. Whether through social media, work conversations, email or participating in a meeting, you must know how to craft your message in a way that reaches your audience. Keeping your points concise will keep the attention of those around you and gain respect from your peers.\nAnother strategy to make sure you are going in the right direction is to build relationships between your co-workers and others in your industry. Through teamwork and collaboration, you can work together to generate new ideas, better your business and build alliances. While this might take time and patience, it can pay dividends and cost very little.\nThroughout the year, it\u2019s important to set goals and work to achieve them. Jotting down actions you must take to obtain these goals is integral for success. Start with the low-hanging fruit \u2013 or the more reachable goals \u2013 to build determination and confidence.\nIn order to build business and credibility, ask clients for referrals. Because individuals put more value on recommendations as opposed to advertisements, don\u2019t be afraid to ask for a referral. Word-of-mouth from trusted colleagues and friends goes a long way \u2013 and it doesn\u2019t cost a thing as long as you thank them in return.\nWhile tracking your net income is important, it\u2019s just as important to make your employees feel valued. Boost their attitude toward working for you by compensating them through money, but don\u2019t forget to give verbal and written praise where it\u2019s due. This not only shows how much you appreciate them, but it also goes a long way in motivating employees to working harder.\nDon\u2019t forget your clients! We get so caught up in meeting deadlines, managing multiple projects and dealing with stress that we sometimes forget how valuable clients and customers are to the long-term health and welfare of our business. Giving great customer service and keeping in touch with them builds relationships and earns respect.\nWhile you must stay on top of your work, it is also important to take some personal time and enjoy life. Spending time with your family, pursuing your hobbies or hanging out with friends is essential to creating a balance between work and fun. While it might seem hard to find the time to enjoy these getaways, there are ways to reduce the amount of time you spend on work so that you can live a little outside of it.\nOne way is through time management. If you were to write down every activity you do each week, you might find that some of these activities aren\u2019t helping you accomplish your goals. You might also discover that some things can be delegated to other team members or outsourced to contractors.\nExercising some or all of these strategies will lead to more success in the workplace and generate more happiness outside of it. Make this New Year a successful one by practicing some of these tips to further your business and your relationships.",

        "raw_content": "US states should act against Israel\u2019s denial of entry to Americans\nMike Coogan The Electronic Intifada 30 April 2014\nOn 13 September 2012, an Israeli soldier pointed his gun at an American college student and ordered her to board a bus back to Jordan.\nThe student, Yara Karmalawy, was attempting to travel to the occupied West Bank and present-day Israel as part of a university-sponsored trip with other students from the University of California, Santa Cruz. Instead of being admitted like the other thirty students, Yara was disparaged, threatened and denied entry because of her ethnicity.\nUnfortunately, this type of treatment by Israel is all too common for Americans of Arab and Muslim heritage, as well as those critical of Israel\u2019s policies toward Palestinians. Those affected by Israel\u2019s policies include college students, world-renowned university professors, teachers, architects, clergy, people visiting sick relatives, married couples giving birth, humanitarian workers and human rights monitors.\nEven those who can trace their ancestry to signers of the US constitution have not been spared from Israel\u2019s discriminatory policies. George Bisharat, a law professor and descendant of William Samuel Johnson, has been routinely mistreated by Israeli officials, an experience he shared in a powerful 28 April piece for The Los Angeles Times.\nIn the last year, Israel\u2019s discriminatory policies have come under increased scrutiny as it attempts to join the US Visa Waiver Program. This program allows citizens from participating countries to visit the US for up to ninety days without a visa and requires that the same privileges be afforded to American citizens visiting countries in the program.\nThe program has a number of requirements for participating countries, and Israel\u2019s inability to meet at least two of the requirements has thus far thwarted its inclusion.\nThe main obstacle has been Israel\u2019s violation of the reciprocity requirement, which requires Israel to admit Americans, regardless of their religion or ethnicity.\nIn recent weeks, the State Department has reiterated that Israel is in violation of the reciprocity requirement, and its spokesperson stated at an 18 April press briefing that \u201cthe Department of Homeland Security and the Department of State both remain concerned with reciprocal travel privileges for US citizens due to the unequal treatment that Palestinian Americans and other Arab Americans receive at Israel\u2019s borders and checkpoints.\u201d\nLast year, a number of lawmakers introduced legislation, backed by the major Israel lobby group AIPAC, known as the United States Israel Strategic Partnership Act of 2013.\nIt called for Israel\u2019s entry in the Visa Waiver Program but exempted it from the reciprocity requirement, prompting journalist Glenn Greenwald to observe in The Guardian that the bill\u2019s sponsors, including California Senator Barbara Boxer, were seeking to \u201ccodify Israel\u2019s discrimination against Palestinian-, Muslim- and Arab-Americans into US law.\u201d\nDrafts of the legislation included a reciprocity exemption in both the House and Senate versions, but after wrangling among lawmakers, the reciprocity exemption was removed from the House version.\nOver the last year Israeli officials have proffered a multitude of explanations for Israel\u2019s discrimination against and mistreatment of US citizens. At various times the Israeli government has claimed that its discriminatory policies are for security purposes; are necessitated by the 1993 Oslo accords; only occur at Ben Gurion airport; and can be eased if Israel is allowed into the Visa Waiver Program.\nSubstantial discrimination\nAlthough exact figures are hard to come by, the scale of Israel\u2019s discrimination is by all accounts substantial. According to the Arab American Institute (AAI), an organization that has been challenging Israel\u2019s discriminatory policies for decades, the number of US citizens denied entry could be as high as 120,000. AAI has been collecting testimonies from US citizens who have been mistreated and has been following up with members of Congress and the State Department. A number of the testimonies AAI has collected are also listed on their website.\nIn New York, lawmakers like Senator Charles Schumer and Senator Kirsten Gillibrand have done nothing to challenge Israel\u2019s appalling mistreatment of constituents like Najwa Doughman and Sasha Al-Sarabi.\nInstead, many lawmakers have demanded a review of how US tourist visa applications from Israelis are processed, and have pressured the State Department to show more flexibility on the requirement that Israel treat all Americans equally.\nWhile various federal agencies have expressed their concern over Israel\u2019s possible entry into the Visa Waiver Program, state lawmakers should also be concerned that Israel\u2019s treatment of their residents violates local civil rights laws and the terms of economic cooperation agreements that at least 33 US states have signed with Israel.\nIsrael\u2019s treatment of Missouri resident Sandra Tamari \u2014 who was denied entry and deported \u2014 would appear to be in direct contravention of that state\u2019s pact with Israel, known as the Missouri-Israel Cooperative Agreement.\nPart of that agreement\u2019s purpose is to improve tourism between Missouri and Israel. Given Israel\u2019s systemic discrimination against US citizens, providing Israel with beneficial treatment under the terms of this agreement directly contravenes state lawmakers\u2019 duty to uphold residents\u2019 rights under the Missouri Human Rights Act.\nArticle five of a similar agreement between Massachusetts and Israel specifically states, \u201ceach party shall accord fair and equitable treatment to the individuals, government agencies, and other Entities of the other party engaged in the pursuit of activities under this Agreement.\u201d\nOther state officials, including California Governor Jerry Brown, have also enabled Israel\u2019s policies by signing tourism and economic cooperation agreements without first ensuring that the civil rights of California residents are being upheld by Israel.\nAs US citizens like Yara Karmalawy, Sandra Tamari and George Bisharat continue to face discrimination, Israel should not only be barred from entering the Visa Waiver Program, but state lawmakers should also consider suspending agreements with Israel until its policies comport with local and federal civil rights laws.\nMike Coogan is the legislative coordinator with the US Campaign to End the Israeli Occupation.\nYara Karmalawy\nUnited States Israel Strategic Partnership Act of 2013\nThe US has nothing to say\nPermalink Zionist Jew replied on Thu, 05/01/2014 - 11:31\nIsrael decides who can and can't enter Israel, not the US.\nPermalink Kobe replied on Fri, 05/02/2014 - 02:49\nThen Israeli's canexpect to be denied access to the US under the reciprocity agreement, for not meeting the schemes minimal requirements!\nThere is no agreement yet\nPermalink Zionist Jew replied on Sat, 05/03/2014 - 10:27\nYes, the US can deny entry to Israelis and has done it many times. It's the US that decides who enters the US. If the US and Israel reach an agreement, then there should be reciprocity, but Israel can't let enter everybody, people who is a threat to national security.\nIsrael decides a lot of thing on behalf of Palestinians\nPermalink Yani replied on Mon, 05/12/2014 - 01:02\nI doubt it is even \"Israel\" doing the deciding but merely a bunch of fascists that are employed by BGA. 9.7% rejection at the airport... and that is Americans, you can be sure that the 'entry denied' rate is higher for other countries. What's Russia scoring?\nWhat gives Israel the right to decide who can be in Palestine? The lucky dip at BGA?\nWhat's the difference between a sexual assault and an unnecessary cavity search when the BGA have already decided to deny entry? It's sexual assault as part of humiliation, seriously outrageous stuff.\nThe right to enter Palestine\nExactly, why does Israel decide who enters Palestine? After bombing their only airport, they control visitors to Palestine or the return of family members. It is an absolute outrage.\nThe attempt to spotlight this was made by peaceful people in the 2010 'Welcome to Palestine'. Over 650 people from European counties tried to fly in on the same day and enter Palestine. Their only 'activism' was to state at the airport that they were invited by Palestinians. They were denounced beforehand as hooligans. The majority were prevented from flying by airlines on Israeli orders, over a hundred were arrested on arrival and detained, and approx. a hundred managed to enter and partake in the 'welcome' organized by Palestinian peace groups.\nQuestions were raised at that time about whether airlines should refuse to carry passengers whom Israel falsely denounce or why European governments do not stand up for their citizens and allow them to be treated in such a fashion, detained and badly treated.\nFascism pure and simple\nBeing with 650 people or being on your own you cannot mention Palestine in an interview and expect to enter \"Israel\". You cannot say \"I'm going to Bethlehem\".\nThis is Israel's economic boycott of Palestine, \"let no one in that will spend money in Palestine!\" This is most obvious in Bethlehem. Tourists are bussed in, follow a person with a flag and bussed out at pace so they don't spend any money. As I sat at 'Stars & Bucks' looking over the road to a ~60 room motel, 2 weeks before Christmas, at 8PM, a mere 2 room lights were on.\nIf you are going to Palestine, you need to have a good plan in place that proves you are going to Israel and have no intention of being in the West Bank. Close any Facebook accounts, clear you computer of all email, email addresses, cookies, history etc. Hell put a copy of the Diary of Ann Frank under your arm. You can be on an official program working for the UN , you won't be treated any better and you will need to have a clear \"plan\" about your intentions to support the \"Jewish\" state.\nIt's fascism, nothing short of it. Taking a set of values, 'being Jewish' and pandering to, creating paranoia about being an always threatened \"race\" and mixing it into a murky swill of vile justifications for abusive behaviors. You are entering a fascist Jewish state, everyone that wants to get in has a story mapped out that has no connections to Palestine.\nBefore I traveled to Palestine I contacted the Federal Shadow Minister for Foreign Affairs in Australia and made it very clear that if I had any issues I was expecting him to ask questions in Parliament. Had I been forced to open my laptop that is the only email that wasn't deleted.\nAll this seemed extreme at the time but the events that followed proved how valuable being prepared was. If you are intending to actually get in and not waste an airfare you need to be prepared to prove your visit is all about Israel.\nI agree 100% with the writer.\nPermalink Hadeel Alshouli replied on Thu, 05/01/2014 - 16:24\nI agree 100% with the writer. I'm a US citizen with palestinian decent and I was denied a visa to Israel because of that. My husband and my two kids were denied from entering israel as well. Not only that but my 66- year- old Irish American friend was treated badly and was held for three-hour intirragation simply because of she is pro-palestinian and yet was denied a visa. So why in hell would our government reward israeli citizens and give them visas while American citizens are treated awfully?\nIsrael has nothing to say\nU.S. decides who can and can't enter the U.S., not AIPAC or the senators in their pocket.\nIt seems Israel is the one asking for exemption.\nWhy does Israel want special privilege? Why does Israel deserve special treatment?\nTHE JUDEO-CHRISTIAN TRADITION OF EXEMPTION, INFERIORITY\nNot many of us can follow the intricacies of visa exemptions and for this we are all\nin debt to Mike Coogan and EI.\nI would suggest that the misread, misunderstood tradition of THE EXODUS in its\nabruptly censored version is at the heart of this willingness to exempt in the Judeo-Christian tradition. For a correction see the work of Michael Prior, eg\nin \"The Right to Expel...\", an essay in N. Aruri's (ed) THE PALESTINIANS: THE RIGHT\nOF RETURN (pp 9-35).\nI don't understand, and how is your comment relevant?\nWhat are some examples of the \"intricacies of visa exemptions\"? What is the \"tradition of the exodus\"? Where do you get \"this willingness to exempt in Judeo-Christian tradition\"? And what needs \"correction\"?\nThis reeks of sophism.\nAre you hypothesizing a religious tradition of unfair exemption, and projecting that to international exchange? Are you saying that the U.S. would have a religious purpose in granting Israel favor?\nOK, THEN MAYBE YOU SHOULD just say it simply, \"the Christian majority in the U.S. favors Israel\".\nAnd this is news, you say?\nSo-called Fundamental Christians and those that interpret the Bible literally certainly favor Israel as \"the chosen\", but many more who follow the spirit of Christ's teaching see Israel's actions as evil.\nI thank whatever god there is for the Constitution of the United States, which separates religion from law, and prevents Israel from playing this particular \"exemption card\".\nThis shows that US Congress,\nPermalink Joe Smack replied on Fri, 05/02/2014 - 14:44\nThis shows that US Congress, as usual, is more loyal to a foreign regime than it is to its own citizens -- let alone a racist regime that is discriminating against its own citizens.\nIf this kind of visa waiver agreement is signed, I am hoping it will be grounds for an anti-discrimination lawsuit. I know that the US government has its faults, but grassroots organizing for anti-discrimination laws has been powerful in the past, and has often been used in our favor. I would hope that the spectacle of the SCOTUS striking down such an agreement would not only be a fairly significant blow to the Zionist lobby, but also to Israel's PR in the United States.\nPermalink Yani replied on Sat, 05/03/2014 - 11:20\nThe visa waiver program requires a nation to reject less that 3% of Americans that enter a country. Israel rejects 9.7% up from 6% in previous years.\nRejecting is one thing. The cavity searches and 'insultings' are another. And when they report people to Homeland Security and Interpol for fallacious reason, that really is something else. There is a legal case in the hands of lawyers in both Israel and the US that I'm let's say 'in knowledge of' that prevents me from being specific. However, the people involved have every intention of starting a class action to put what is going on into the media if this particular case isn't resolved.\nIn a separate case a US citizen, living in Jordan teaching English to Jordanian airforce pilots was refused entry, he was asked to spy on movements of the Jordanian airforce during his attempt to visit Palestine in order to renew his visa.\nThe statistics of people being refused entry should not be seen as some indicator of consistence in treatment. Nor should it be assumed that only Arab Americans, the politically minded, youth or any other subgroup are in receipt of objectionable treatment.\n...that this discrimination does not apply only to US citizens, but Palestinians and people of Palestinian or Arab descent AND non-Palestinians from other countries. It applies to all sorts of people, from Europe and elsewhere, not only when they are involved in some form of Israeli-critical activities which could easily be proven to be peaceful.\nI know a number of people who were invited to Israel for seminars or cultural events who were so badly treated, either on entering or exiting at Ben-Gurion, that they swear they will never travel to Israel again.\nIsraelis seem not unduly worried that their government creates antipathy toward their country every day.\nVisa waiver worse...\nPermalink Yani replied on Sun, 05/11/2014 - 21:48\nEven expanding this to people who are friends of Palestinians still fails. In detention with my friend at BGA were 2 elderly Russian women whose 'crime' was going to visit their sister and a young Australian you said in an interview that he would like to join the IDF for a few weeks to get a better understanding of the situation.\nThere is an Australia girl who was given the \"full\" search in Rome before getting on the plane only to then discover all her and luggage was to be taken away and she wasn't allowed to go to the toilet on the plane on her own.\nIt seems like it is just Palestinians to Palestinians, that it included their supporter to their supporters... but it goes way beyond that to people that are simply not Zionists or even Jewish enough.\nThe flight I took from Barcelona was the last flight the Spanish airline was ever going to run into BGA. On the plane 10 Israelis fought over seats and the plane was 50 minutes late taking off. That was such a regular occurrence that it was why the airline was ceasing all flights to BGA.\nIt's just not worth flying into BGA, the airport in Jordan is such a pleasure and the people infinitely more friendly. You feel you have arrived at an international destination and on into a fascist Jewish state. If you are rejected at the boarder crossing you haven't blown your holiday.\nIt's up to Israel to get their rejection rate below 3%, which even then is high, not to Congress to make yet another exemption to the fascist Israeli state.\nWhy does US government let Israel discriminate against Americans?\nMike Coogan 29 August 2013\nHow US \"charities\" break tax laws to fund Israeli settlements\nMike Coogan 3 September 2011\nArab-Americans denied entry into Israel and Palestine\nCanadian \u201cpeace coordinator\u201d barred by Israel for ten years\nIsrael denies entry to members of team monitoring attacks on Palestinians in Hebron",

        "raw_content": "Why I helped \u201cshut down\u201d Europe\u2019s weapons lobby\nDavid Cronin Activism and BDS Beat 5 May 2015\nI helped \u201cshut down\u201d the offices of arms lobby group ASD on Tuesday. (Vredesactie/Flickr)\nToday, I took part in the \u201cshutting down\u201d of a lobby group representing some of the world\u2019s top weapons exporters.\nAt lunchtime more than a dozen activists entered the Aerospace and Defence Industries Association of Europe (ASD) headquarters in Brussels, announcing that we were taking it over. We distributed letters of dismissal to its staff, covered some of its reception area in white sheets and posted notices saying \u201carms dealers evicted.\u201d\nOur action drew a hostile response from Kyle Martin, an ASD manager. He began scrunching up our papers and tearing down our notices, telling us that we were trespassing on private property.\nHis attachment to private property is a little bizarre, given that the ASD wants the arms industry to be heavily subsidized from the public purse. A recent ASD paper on weapons innovation states that \u201c100 percent funding to [the arms] industry should be considered the norm.\u201d\nASD includes five of the planet\u2019s fifteen leading arms companies: BAE Systems, Airbus, Thales, Finmeccanica and Rolls-Royce. All of these firms have major links to Israel.\nFinmeccanica is supplying jet trainer aircraft to the Israeli military as part of a $1 billion deal. BAE Systems provides electronic equipment to the Israeli military.\nThales has teamed up with Israel\u2019s Elbit to make drones for the British army.\nAirbus is developing an \u201cearly warning system\u201d for warplanes along with Israel Aerospace Industries. And Rolls-Royce\u2019s engines can be found in many aircraft used by the Israeli military.\nBenefits to Israel\nASD is also involved in lobbying activities which have proven beneficial for Israel\u2019s merchants of death.\nFor many years, ASD has been urging the EU to allocate a greater proportion of its scientific research program to military technology. In response, the Union has established a \u201csecurity research\u201d scheme.\nIsrael\u2019s weapons firms have been participating on an equal basis to European companies and institutions in that scheme ever since its inception. As a result, the manufacturers of drones used to kill children in Gaza and of surveillance equipment installed along Israel\u2019s wall in the occupied West Bank have benefited handsomely from European subsidies.\nOur action at ASD\u2019s headquarters led to an impromptu teach-in. I was asked to give a briefing about how the weapons industry has been influencing EU policy. Jan Pie, ASD\u2019s urbane and apparently unruffled secretary general, listened to me, interrupting to claim that all of the Union\u2019s research activities are of a civilian nature.\nAs I documented in my book Corporate Europe, ASD has been pushing the EU to bankroll research into technology with both civilian and military applications. The group has enjoyed considerable success; quite a few of the EU\u2019s science projects relate to drones, inherently military aircraft pioneered by Israel.\nASD is trying to promote drones as beneficial to Europe\u2019s economy. In March, Pie predicted that drones could contribute to 150,000 \u201cdirect jobs\u201d in 2050.\nNot possessing a crystal ball, I have no way of gauging whether such forecasts will come to fruition. But even if they do, the strategy Pie wants Europe to pursue is at odds with the interests and desires of its people.\nGaza has been the world\u2019s main laboratory for drones in recent times. Do we really want Europe\u2019s economic policies to be inspired by a cruel experiment against a besieged people?\nThe staff we met at ASD didn\u2019t want to admit they are causing harm in the real world. Kyle Martin tried to dismiss my complaints about how Saudi Arabia is the number one client for some of ASD\u2019s members as irrelevant. Saudi Arabia has, of course, been busy bombing Yemen lately with the aid of Western weapons.\nASD called the police. We refused to leave when the cops arrived, so they removed us from the building. The cops requested our identity cards and wrote down our names.\nSeveral police cars turned up outside the building where ASD is based but we weren\u2019t taken into custody.\nThe arms lobbyists of Brussels are usually insulated from reality. Today was an exception.\nWe confronted them with the consequences of their pernicious activities.\nActivists told the arms dealers they have been evicted. (Vredesactie/Flickr)\nJan Pie\nHeartiest congratulations, David, to you and your colleagues for intruding on this ghastly cabal. They're a gang of money-grubbing mass murderers and deserve far worse than a day's interrupted \"business\".\nTom, as comments go, can't\nTom, as comments go, can't get better than that!\nBravo to David\nChapeau bas David!\nPermalink Polonus replied on Wed, 05/06/2015 - 21:01",

        "raw_content": "David George Hogarth\nCommander Hogart in 1918\nBarton-upon-Humber, Lincolnshire, England\nLaura Violet (Hogarth) Uppleby\nArchaeology, classics, education, journalism, fund directorship, museum curatorship, intelligence operations and directorship, diplomacy\nBritish School at Athens\nDavid George Hogarth, CMG, FRGS, FBA (23 May 1862 \u2013 6 November 1927), also known as D. G. Hogarth, was a British archaeologist and scholar associated with T. E. Lawrence and Arthur Evans. He was Keeper of the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford from 1909 to 1927.\nHogarth was commissioned into the Royal Naval Volunteer Reserve during the First World War, and served with the Naval Intelligence Division. During 1916, he was the acting director of the Arab Bureau, and was later responsible for delivering the Hogarth message.\n6.1 By Hogarth\n6.2 With Hogarth as editor\nD. G. Hogarth was the son of Reverend George Hogarth, Vicar of Barton-upon-Humber, and Jane Elizabeth (Uppleby) Hogarth. He had a sister three years younger, Janet E. Courtney, an author and feminist. In one of his autobiographical works, Hogarth claimed to be an antiquary who was made so, rather than born to it. He said, \"nothing disposed me to my trade in early years.\" Those years included a secondary education, 1876\u20131880, at Winchester College, which claims to be, and was labelled by Hogarth as, \"our oldest Public School.\"[1]\nIn October 1881, Hogarth matriculated into Magdalen College, Oxford to study Literae Humaniores.[2] He achieved first class honours in both Mods (1882) and Greats (1885).[2] He graduated with a Bachelor of Arts (BA) degree in 1885:[2] as per tradition, his BA was promoted to a Master of Arts (MA Oxon) degree.[3]\nIn 1886, Hogarth was elected a Fellow of Magdalen College, Oxford.[2][3] Between 1887 and 1907, he travelled to excavations in Cyprus, Crete, Egypt, Syria, Melos, and Ephesus (the Temple of Artemis).[4] On the island of Crete, he excavated Zakros and Psychro Cave. Hogarth was named director of the British School at Athens in 1897 and occupied the position until 1900.[5] He was the keeper of the Ashmolean Museum in Oxford from 1909[6] until his death in 1927.[7][8]\nHogarth (centre), with T. E. Lawrence (left) and Lt Col. Dawnay at the Arab Bureau, Cairo, May 1918\nIn 1915, during the First World War, Hogarth was commissioned with the temporary rank of lieutenant commander in the Royal Naval Volunteer Reserve[9] and joined the Geographical Section of the Naval Intelligence Division. Professor Hogarth was appointed the acting director of the Arab Bureau, for a time during 1916 when Sir Mark Sykes went back to London. Kinahan Cornwallis was his deputy.[citation needed] Hogarth was close with T. E. Lawrence and worked with Lawrence to plan the Arab Revolt.[10]\nSykes befriended Hogarth, who had described India Government as believing they had a moral imperative to the British Raj as the best form of government and could not fail in their duty to impose it on a Province of Mesopotamia. The Arabists rejected this proposal vehemently; Sykes taking Hogarth's research as evidence of the uniquely different situation in the protectorate. The archaeologists knew it was clear that the Raj had no understanding of the different conditions, that there needed to be a specific \"Arab Policy\" for what had become a frontier of empire.[11]\nHogarth returned to Oxford and the Ashmolean Museum in June 1919.[2] From 1925 to 1927 he was President of the Royal Geographical Society.[12]\nD. G. Hogarth M.A. by Augustus John\nOn 7 November 1894, Hogarth married Laura Violet Uppleby, daughter of George Charles Uppleby.[13] His wife and mother shared a common great great grandfather, one John Uppleby of Wootton, Lincolnshire.[14] Laura Violet was 26 at the time; David George, 32. They had one son, William David Hogarth (1901\u20131965).[15]\nIn 1926, Hogarth's health began rapidly deteriorating due to a heart condition, and he was granted leave from Oxford in October 1927. He died on 6 November 1927 at his home in Oxford (20 St Giles' Street). He was aged 65.[2]\nIn 1896, Hogarth was elected a Fellow of the Royal Geographical Society (FRGS).[2] In 1905, he was elected a Fellow of the British Academy (FBA), the United Kingdom's national academy for the humanities and social sciences.[3] In 1917, he was made a Commander of the Order of the Nile by the Sultan of Egypt,[3] and awarded the Gold Medal of the Royal Geographical Society.[2] In the 1918 New Year Honours, he was appointed a Companion of the Order of St Michael and St George (CMG) for his efforts during the First World War.[16] In 1919, he was awarded the Order of Nahda (Hejaz) 2nd class by Hussein bin Ali, Sharif of Mecca.[3]\nBy Hogarth[edit]\nHogarth, David George (1889).

Eurotransplant helps coordinate work in these institutions, with the goal of efficiently allocating and distributing donated organs. The group also promotes research into transplantation and seeks to raise public awareness of the benefits of donation.[citation needed]\nIn 2016 and 2017 Croatia had the highest donor rate among the countries members of the Eurotransplant, 35.8 and 31.8 respectively per million people in the population.[4]\nComparable institutions are Scandiatransplant in Iceland, Norway, Finland, Denmark, and Sweden; as well as Balttransplant in Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania.\n^ a b History, Eurotransplant.

He was evaluated by a psychiatrist for substance abuse problems, and charged with marijuana possession in juvenile court. In the months since September, he\u2019s become withdrawn, depressed, and he suffers from panic attacks. He is worried his life is over, according to his mother, and that he will never get into college.\nThe only problem? The \u201cleaf\u201d found in the student\u2019s backpack wasn\u2019t what authorities thought it was \u2014 it tested negative for marijuana three separate times.\nAll of this is laid out in detail by Dan Casey in a column in the Roanoke Times today. While the juvenile court dropped its case against the student after the tests turned up negative, the school system, in a community located midway between Roanoke and Lynchburg, has been far less forgiving. That\u2019s because stringent anti-drug policies in school districts in Virginia and elsewhere consider \u201cimitation\u201d drugs to be identical to real ones for disciplinary purposes.\nThe school\u2019s lawyer, Jim Guynn, is quoted in the Roanoke Times article defending the policy on the basis that \u201cit\u2019s a pretty standard policy across the Commonwealth.\u201d In 2011, for instance, four seventh-graders in Chesapeake, Virginia were suspended over bringing a bag of oregano to school. A quick Google search suggests similar policies are in effect in many other states as well.\nIt doesn\u2019t matter if your son or daughter brings a real pot leaf to school, or if he brings something that looks like a pot leaf \u2014 okra, tomato, maple, buckeye, etc. If your kid calls it marijuana as a joke, or if another kid thinks it might be marijuana, that\u2019s grounds for expulsion.\nOne more reason to home school. The paranoid zero tolerance rigidity of the public schools is making things worse than ever.\nExpelledmarijuanaosuschool\nPrevious PostI tried to make the K-Cup environmental issue one of my top 100 concerns, but just couldn\u2019t do it.Next PostSecular gays fund United Methodist LGBTQX agenda\nOne thought on \u201cIn other news, every kid who is a fan of the national champion Ohio State Buckeyes just got expelled.\u201d\nWith all these asinine policies in the public school system, it is amazing so many intelligent people still used the government schools!",

PwC predicts that, with average GDP per capita growth of 4.5 and 4 percent, Vietnam and Bangladesh will grow faster than China (3 percent), Japan (1.5 percent) and the United States (1 percent) between 2016 and 2050.\nThat growth will see Vietnam and Bangladesh become the 20th and 23rd-largest economies in the world. But the similarities don't end there. Both countries have large populations and a young, productive and growing workforce. And this demographic dividend will fuel growth still further.\nBarriers remain to improving the trade and investment environment in both countries: While Vietnam jumped 14 places to number 68 in the World Bank's latest Ease of Doing Business rankings, Bangladesh found itself at number 177 (out of 190 countries).\nSo, Bangladesh and Vietnam \u2013 and the companies who invest there \u2013 share unique challenges and opportunities. And with so much in common, there is much both countries can learn from each other.\nFollowing the recent UN announcement that Bangladesh is set to graduate from a \"least developed country\" to a \"developing country\", EuroCham and DFDL, a law firm with offices in 8 countries across South and Southeast Asia, are delighted to host an information session to discuss invaluable investor insights.\nJoin us to find out more\nShahwar Jamal Nizam\u2022J\u00e9r\u00f4me Buzenet\nThe legal and business environment in Bangladesh and a comparison with Vietnam\nProfessor Nika Salvetti\n- General macro economic situation in Bangladesh; - Business/Investment Challenges and opportunities; - The pros and cons of the Garment sector: What Can Vietnam learn from it?\nShahwar Jamal Nizam\u2022J\u00e9r\u00f4me Buzenet\u2022Miguel Bastos\u2022Professor Nika Salvetti\u2022Simon Pugh\nShahwar Jamal Nizam\nPartner, DFDL Bangladesh\nShahwar qualified to practice in the bar of England & Wales after completing Pupillage at Erskine Chambers, London.

        "raw_content": "Trump\u2019s North Korea tactics paying off\nAccording to intelligence reports, North Korea has begun to dismantle its missile engine factory. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo was sure to oversell the progress he tracked based on satellite imagery, but did express that it is a good sign to see some progress on the Korean Peninsula.\n\u201cI know the United States is tracking the disassembly of a missile engine test site,\u201d Pompeo told the Senate Foreign Relations Committee on Wednesday. \u201cThey\u2019re beginning to dismantle that. It has to do with their missile program. It\u2019s a good thing. Steps forward.\u201d\nFollowing President Donald Trump\u2019s historic summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un in Singapore, many of Trump\u2019s opponents called the meeting a waste of time and resources.\nTackling the North Korean threat has been no easy task, even after the Singapore summit. When Pompeo tried to schedule follow-up meetings with the North Koreans, they cancelled it.\nAccording to the Washington Post, the North Koreans also began making demands for more money and refused to take down their missile-engine testing facility. The Post also reported that United States intelligence agencies have said that the North Koreans are attempting to conceal their continued nuclear weapon program. They also reported that when Pompeo went to North Korea on July 6, they refused to commit to a time table for denuclearization.\nTo all this reporting, Trump responded in a tweet Monday:\nAnd based on Pompeo\u2019s press conference, the North Koreans have in fact begun to denuclearize.\nPompeo made sure to explain that the dismantling of the facility \u201cwasn\u2019t in the written agreement [signed between North Korea and the United States in Singapore] itself, but Chairman Kim committed in his conversation with President Trump.\u201d\nPresident Trump, however, made clear even before the Singapore summit that he was willing to sit at the negotiating table if North Korea meets his very strict demands. If not, he was willing to leave the table just as quickly as he was ready to approach it. So far, his tactics have proven to be fruitful for the time being.\ndenuclearizationNorth Korea",

She is called \"La Bellissima\", \"the reigning new diva of the early 21st century\" and is known and welcomed around the globe.\nAnna Yuryevna Netrebko was born on 18 September 1971 in a family of Ukrainian and Kuban Cossack background and grew up in the city of Krasnodar, Russia. She left home when she was 16 to enter St. Petersburg conservatoire At the same time and took a job at the city's famous Mariinksy Theatre - washing the floors. That was her day job, and it gave her a chance at night to soak up the music. \"I was surprised why such an attractive girl decided to do such a job,\" recalls maestro Valery Gergiev, the musical director of the Mariinksy Theatre. He says he was even more surprised to see the cleaning lady turn up at one of his auditions - but he noticed her immediately. \"After her first minute of audition, it was clear, of course, I immediately offered her to become a young member of our ensemble,\" says Gergiev. \"A Cinderella story.\"\nHe subsequently became her vocal mentor. Under Gergiev's guidance, Netrebko made her operatic stage debut at the Mariinsky at age 22, as Susanna in Le nozze di Figaro. She also started touring the world with his company, singing mostly Russian repertoire.\nShe went on to sing many prominent roles with the Kirov Opera, including Amina in La sonnambula, Pamina in Die Zauberflote, Rosina in Il Barbiere di Siviglia, and Lucia in Lucia di Lammermoor. In 1994, she sang the Queen of the Night in Die Zauberflote with the Riga Independent Opera Avangarda Akademija under conductor David Milnes.\nAfter her triumphant Salzburg Festival debut in 2002 as Donna Anna in Mozart's Don Giovanni, Anna Netrebko has gone on to appear with nearly all of the world's great opera companies, including the Metropolitan Opera, the San Francisco Opera, London's Royal Opera House Covent Garden, the Vienna State Opera, the Paris Opera, the Zurich Opera, the Berlin State Opera, and Munich's Bavarian State Opera.\nShe also frequently returns to the Kirov Opera at the Mariinsky Theatre in St. Petersburg to collaborate with her longtime mentor, conductor Valery Gergiev.\nAnna Netrebko made her Metropolitan Opera debut in 2002 as Natasha in Prokofiev's War and Peace, a role she has also sung at London's Covent Garden, Milan's Teatro alla Scala, and Madrid's Teatro Real.

One of the most serious programs is SOS-KinderDorf project which functions in 104 countries of the world. Besides, the singer takes part in \"Anna\" project (program for helping orphan houses in Kaliningrad and Kaliningrad region), helps the international charity fund \"Roerich Heritage\", and also aids the Institute of Children's Orthopaedics Centre n.a.

        "title": "Railways at their Limits: Madagascar 2018",
        "raw_content": "Madagascar: Railways at their Limits\nJungle Trains: 26/4 \u0096 10/5/20198\nThe Land of the Baobab: 9/5 \u0096 16/5/2019\nMadagascar is a fascinating tropical, African island. Once upon a time the colonialists built several railways to improve the very basic infrastructure of the country. The remains of these railways still exist and are partly in operation. The condition of some of the lines, though, is \u201cinteresting\u201d to say the least. On one of the lines we\u2019ll visit, the so called \u201cJungle Express\u201d offers six trains a week with a single train ride lasting as long as 35 hours \u0096 and only one lonely serviceable locomotive! Of course, the scheduled time is much shorter, but what does a timetable mean if the rolling stock and the track doesn\u2019t match up to it?\nWe started our negotiations at the lowest imaginable level - no, not possible; no, not allowed \u2026 but after a year of negotiations and several personal visits by our local agency to all of the lines, we now have access to the managers of the railway and have even been granted permission to travel in the cab of a locomotive. They have also agreed to use their Michelin railcar for a special charter train event. Those Michelins are French tyre driven railcars and can\u2019t go out from the capital on the line because of the poor track conditions. But on the line from Fianarantsoa we can take the streamlined railcar out for several kilometres. There are only two serviceable Michelins, one in Fianarantsoa, the other one in the capital Antananariva \u2026 known in short as Tana.\nMadagascar is so famous for its Baobab alley that we\u2019ve added a tourist part to follow the railway programme. If you wish, you can add this tourist programme after the railway tour or visit the remains of a remote sugar mill and their locos on your own. Travelling through Madagascar is a challenge, however. You should not underestimate the time you need to cover large, medium or even short distances. It will all be quite an experience! The rich natural life (Lemurs for instance) will reward all the efforts, however.\nDepending where you start from, you may need to depart on the 27th of April.\nDeparture from home via Paris with Air France. Arrival at 22:30 hrs in the night, transfer to our hotel in the capital Antananarivo (Tana).\nTaking pictures of trains is a difficult enterprise in Madagascar. We\u2019ve established contacts with the railways allowing us to know about freight trains on the line. If there are some, we\u2019ll take pictures in the section Andasibe \u0096 Ambila. The travelling time from Tana to Brickaville is around five hours by road. But for the 13 kms from Brickaville to Ambila we must allow one hour, because we need to use a ferry boat. We\u2019ll reach our hotel in Andasibe probably after dusk.\nBy train we\u2019ll travel from Andasibe to Andranokoditra. We\u2019re permitted to travel in the cab of the locomotive \u0096 of course, not all together, but we can change from station to station. By boat we\u2019ll reach the Palmarium Hotel.\nWe try the impossible: to chase a train. We will do this with a charter bus and a speed boat \u0096 because the water has no potholes! The train leaves at 08:30 hrs. We will need to leave our hotel around 5 am to get by boat to the large bridge over the Pangalanes near Ivondro in good time. Then we\u2019ll rush to the river bank where we\u2019ll change over to our charter bus. We try to catch it a second time before it reaches Brickaville, where the train crosses a combined road/railway bridge. During a field test in late 2016, it took the train an unbelievable 5 hours and 40 minutes from Tamatave to Brickaville. Just after Brickaville we have a third chance to get a line shot but after that the line is no longer reachable by road before complete darkness. Hotel in Andasibe\nIn the morning, we\u2019ll continue by our charter bus to Moramanga. At 10:30 the \u201cTrans Lemurie Express\u201d leaves from here, but the train is not really the express its name suggests. It\u2019ll take the train until 16:00 hrs to reach its destination, Ambatondrazaka. In Ambatondrazaka we\u2019ll use the best hotel in town, which is really very basic.\nBy charter bus, we\u2019ll chase the uphill \u201cTrans Lemurie Express\u201d which leaves Ambatondrazaka at 7.00 am. In the afternoon we\u2019ll continue to our hotel in Ambatofotsy, south of Antananarivo (Google Earth calles this place \u201cTsiafahy\u201d).\nBecause domestic flights to Manakara have been terminated, we will enjoy a long bus ride to Fianarantsoa. We\u2019ll pass through the typical, hilly countryside of Madagascar on one of their few main trunk roads. In Antsirabe, we\u2019ve planned a brief stop to visit the abandoned railway station. Hotel in Fianarantsoa\nTrevelling into the blue: we\u2019ll board the \u201cJungle Express\u201d, Fianarantsoa \u0096 Manakara, famous for its hefty delays. The 163 km long ride can take 8 hours, or 18, or 35 \u0096 who knows! Hotel in Manakara\nOur day starts with the train departure. It should leave the station at 7.00 am. In the first section we have the chance to take some line shots. Soon after setting off, the train crosses the runway of the unused airport. We asked for permission to get access, but they said, \u201cdo what you want. No-one is responsible for the airfield\u201d. Then we start a wild chase to Sahanisaka (about 40 km), because there is a scenic viaduct which can be reached by 4 WD cars, as long as there has been no serious rainfall over the previous few days. After this shot, we must reach the station before the train leaves. We talked to the railway men to, hopefully, make this happen ... If you don\u2019t like the thrill, you can take your seat earlier in Manakara. Our bus cannot reach the line before Sahambavy, about 20 km before the terminus Fianarantsoa. It is likely that the train will reach Sahambavy well after dusk. Hotel in Sahambavy\nOn Mondays, there are no trains on the line. That\u2019s why we\u2019ve chartered the gem of the line for the afternoon: the Michelin railcar, known as \u201cLa Micheline\u201d. With the tyre-driven railcar, we\u2019ll go from Sahambavy to the terminus in Fianarantsoa. Here we\u2019ll visit the station and the small workshop of the Fianarantsoa Cote Est, where the one and only serviceable diesel locomotive is maintained. If time permits we\u2019ll also have a look at the city with its colonial style buildings and the Ambozontany Cathedral. Hotel in Fianarantsoa\nAccording to the timetable the train to Manakara should leave Fianarantsoa at 7.00 am. But this is only written in the timetable \u2026 Our way back to Tana is long and we might not be able to wait until the train finally leaves the station. Charter bus back to Antananarivo (Tana). We\u2019ll reach the capital in the evening. Hotel in Tana\nIf there are freight trains we\u2019ll go to Anjeva (about 20 km) to take one of the nice line positions which are available here in both directions. Depending on the regular trains, we\u2019ll plan our visit to the main workshop of Madarail in the capital. Here we\u2019ll find the second serviceable Michelin railcar. We\u2019ve chartered it for a short shunting operation within the bounds of the railway station. Hotel in Antananarivo.\nFor a final time, we\u2019ll watch out for freight trains on the line Tana \u0096 Tamatave. Our focus will lay on the line around Andasibe. In the evening we\u2019ll return to the capital. If there are no trains to be expected we\u2019ll return earlier and take a city tour through Tana. Hotel in Antananarivo until our return flight or you can book the cultural extension.\nEarly morning transfer to the airport and return flight home, arrival in Europe in the same evening.\nMadagascar \u0096 Land of the Baobabs\nDeparture from home via Paris with Air France, arrival in the late evening, transfer to a hotel in Antananarivo\nTransfer to the airport for a domestic flight to Morondava, transfer to our hotel in Palissandre\nChartered 4 WD cars will bring us to Kirindy. In the game reservation of Kirindi you\u2019ll find the Fosa, an endemic wildcat which looks like a little panther, and many other interesting species. Hotel Auberge de Kirindy. We offer a night walk through part of the reservation to watch the active wildlife after dusk. We\u2019ll have an experienced guide with us.\nIn the morning, we\u2019ll have another chance to watch the wildlife on an extended walk through the game park. Afterwards we\u2019ll continue to the famous Baobab Alley with its amazing baobab trees. Accommodation in the Palissandre Hotel in Morondava.\nOn our tour today we\u2019ll see the typical, rural life of Madgascar. Roads and unpaved ways can be passed only slowly. That\u2019s why we\u2019ll make it only up to Miandrivazo and will stay in the Princesse Tsiribihina Hotel.\nWe\u2019ll continue to Antsirabe, the famous \u201cwater city\u201d, known for its thermal wells. In the afternoon we\u2019ll continue to Antananarivo, Grand Mellis Hotel.\nVisit to the world heritage site in Ambohimanga. Here you can see and touch the history of Madgascar. We have a day room in the Grand Mellis Hotel until we must say goodbye and head for the airport in the middle of the night.\nTransfer to the airport and return flight. Arrival in Europe the same evening.\nMadagascar became independent in 1958. They formed the state owned railway R\u00e9seau National des Chemins de Fer Malagasy (RNCFM). After three decades the railway was completely run down, with only one locomotive remaining in service and the employees not having been paid for seven months. With this situation continuing, in 2002, they split the railway into two parts and privatised them.\nThe northern network went to Madarail. They had high-flying plans of re-animating the railway system and foreign funds came in. It took twelve years, and Madarail also needed support from the state to survive. The planned refurbishment of the tracks wasn\u2019t finished. So the system is partly in a very sad condition (again) and trains are slow. Because roads are even slower and dangerous the railway sector is still important. The modal mix shows about one fifth of all freight is moved by rail (numbers from 2012).\nCurrently Madarail owns 836 kilometres of which these lines are in use:\nTananarive-C\u00f4te Est (TCE): Antananarivo \u0096 Moramanga (122 km) \u0096 Brickaville (271 km) \u0096 Tamatave (Toamasina-Manguiers) (370 km) (to the port 372 km)\nMoramanga \u0096 Ambatondrazaka (MLA) (142 km) with a branch of (19 km) from Vohidiala (123 km) to Morarano Chrome\nAntananarivo \u0096 Antsirabe (TA) (154 km)\nAt the beginning of 2017, there were no regular trains to Antsirabe. The number of freight trains on the other sections is unpredictable. Usually, there should be at least one pair of freight trains per day plus the following passenger services:\nMonday: Moramanga to Toamasina 07:00 hrs \u0096 17:00/22:00 hrs\nTuesday: Toamasina to Moramanga 08:30 hrs \u0096 17:00/22:00 hrs\nAccording to the timetable the train should take 9 hrs 14 minutes, but giving a time in minutes is a pure joke. The departure is usually on time, the arrival time varies. That\u2019s why we\u2019re giving a range of usual arrival times. On the line Moramanga \u0096 Ambatondrazaka at the Alaotra lake, Dia Soa is responsible for the passenger trains, called \u201cTrans Lemurie Express\u201d:\nWednesday and Saturday: Moramanga to Ambatondrazaka 10:30 \u0096 16:00 hrs\nThursday and Sunday: Ambatondrazaka to Moramanga 07:00 \u0096 12:30 hrs\nThese trains are usually on time, clean and offer first and second class.\nFor the southern section, they couldn\u2019t find a private company interested in taking over, so they formed the state owned company Fianarantsoa Cote Est (FCE) The total length is 163 km, most of it steeply graded (Ampitabe, 28 km to Sahasinaka, 116 km). After several accidents, they have only one locomotive left in service. Hence, traffic can be ceased at any time. As this situation has remained unchanged since 2012 and the train is still running, we see a fair chance that we can experience this so called \u201cJungle Express\u201d. It\u2019s a social service for the locals who are living far from any road access, hence stops at stations are usually very time consuming.\nOther than Mondays, the passenger train runs every day, one day up and the other down. On Mondays you may find a freight train in the upper section of the railway. It\u2019s unpredictable when the train will depart and arrive, usually the departure is in the morning but the arrival time varies enormously.\nThe area covered by the railways is sometimes without any nearby road connection. The technical conditions under which the railways are operating are dire and unsafe. The tour is not tailored for the \u201cfull comprehensive insurance person\u201d who insists on his 4 pm tea or Brazilian highland coffee! It\u2019s for the adventurous traveller, who likes to travel far from the beaten track, discover new horizons and is happy with the mentality we\u2019ll find on the tropical island. All timings given are intended times. Nothing, really nothing can be guaranteed on this tour. For instance, if the one and only locomotive of Fianarantsoa fails, there will be no movement at all. No matter whether we\u2019re sitting at the line, waiting for the train to come, or sitting in the train in the middle of the jungle, nothing will be moved before the locomotive is repaired. This may take its time, and questions about how long are absolutely inappropriate. It takes as long as it takes. There is also no guarantee for seeing one of the Micheline's out on the line. Any kind of technical defect will cancel the planned railcar ride. There is no compansation available if failures happen. Take a family pack of Valium with you if you\u2019re keen to see the country and the railways but can\u2019t stand the tropical African island approach to sorting things out.\nIf you can accept all this, a new world will be open to you and you\u2019ll take many impressions home which can\u2019t be gained from watching TV. On the cultural extension, we\u2019ll see the famous Baobab Alley as well as the rich flora and fauna of Madagascar.\nMadagascar is among the poorest of African countries. The infrastructure is not comparable with any European or North American country. Roads may become completely impassable following heavy rainfall, which may occur at any time. The railway is not a sure runner as well - locomotives may fail, trains may derail, tracks might be blocked. Once again: this tour is an adventure and you should prepare for it. Train rides, as well as travelling by road, may produce enormous delays. Our travel agency will make sure that we\u2019ll always be able to feed you, and this is something very simple because on every station there are plenty of vendors selling food and drinks. But there are no set times for meals and it might become very late in the evening for dinner. Train delays of several hours, even days, are known in Madagascar. Carrying some muesli bars and drinking water with you might not be a bad idea.\nThis is a road! Even 4 WD cars may give up under such conditions.\nThis used to be the second last locomotive in use in Fianarantsoa ... Now only one left in service.\nYou need a certain level of fitness on the tour. We\u2019re travelling under tropical conditions, times for meals are not set and some of the hotels are not what you would expect to find in a western country. Wherever possible we\u2019ve chosen appropriate middle class hotels - and sometimes we\u2019re booked in the best available hotel \u0096 which means nothing other than there is no hotel with a decent standard within a reachable distance.\nIt\u2019s advisable to be fit for travelling in difficult circumstances, with delays and the need to walk a kilometre or so occasionally to reach photo locations.\nHygienic and environmental standards in Madagascar do not conform to Central European, Australian or North American expectations. Carrying some toiletries in your photo bag is hence advisable. Please bear in mind that accommodation and transportation in Madagascar completely falls short of EU/US safety standards. Always use common sense when crossing roads and railway tracks. Neither FarRail Tours nor the local agency or the railways can be held responsible and neither will accept any liability whatsoever in the case of any accident, damage or delay. We suggest you take out a comprehensive overseas accident and health insurance policy. Trip cancellation insurance is recommended as well.\nMadagascar: Railways at Their Limits 15 to 22 participants \u00a32,920\nLand of the Baobabs 11 to 18 participants \u00a31,770\nAll hotels including breakfast\nCharter buses and/or 4WD cars with English speaking driver (4 participants per 4WD car)\nDomestic flight (cultural extension)\nSpeed boat from Palmarium Hotel to the railway bridge\nChartered Michelin railcar from Sahambavy to Fianarantsoa (if available)\nTrain ride from Fianarantsoa to Manakara (if available)\n1.5 lt mineral water per day\nPorters at the airport and in the hotels\nEuropean and local tour guide\nPersonal expenses like telephone, laundry service or hotel minibars\nTips (please calculate with some 80 Pounds for each part of the tour)",

        "raw_content": "Is Your Department Women-Friendly?\nFebruary 18, 2008 JenderLeave a comment\nThere\u2019s been a lot of discussion on this blog and others about ways in which philosophy departments are unfriendly to women. But some lucky people are in departments that *are* friendly to women (at least in some ways), and this is well worth knowing about, recognising, and celebrating. SWIP-UK has an initiative to do just that\u2013 primarily by recognising specific intiatives, but also by recognising whole departments, if there seems an outstanding case. Does your department do something women-friendly? If so, let SWIP-UK know, so that they can recognise it. Aside from being well-deserved recognition, it may help to inspire others. The call for nominations can be found here. Note that this is open to non-UK departments as well as UK ones.\nStanley Fish says Identity Politics can be rational (+ addition)\nand his supporting point is important enough that I\u2019m not going to argue about details (unlike here and here and here), though we\u2019ll see that his conclusion leaves us with some questions.\nFish distinguishes between a thin and a thick invocation of race or gender to support one\u2019s vote. The thin reason says you will vote for someone because they are like you. But a thick reason appeals to interests, ones that \u2013 to judge from his examples \u2013 have a place in the political sphere. His example of an African-American\u2019s thick reason for voting for an African-American:\nYet every African American \u2013 conservative or liberal, rich or poor, barely educated or highly educated \u2013 meets with obstacles to his or success and mobility that are all the more frustrating because they are structural (built into the culture\u2019s ways of perceiving) rather than official. To the non- African American these obstacles will be more or less invisible, especially in a country where access to opportunity is guaranteed by law. It makes sense, therefore, that an African American voter could come to the conclusion that an African American candidate would be likely to fight for changes that could remove barriers a white candidate might not even see. A vote given for that reason would be a vote based on identity, but it would be more than a mere affirmation of fellowship (he\u2019s one of mine and I have to support him); it would be a considered political judgment as to which candidate will move the country in a preferred direction.\nIn addition to the relief to see someone in such a visible arena actually describe one of the problems keeping racism in place \u2013 that the inequities are not even always visible to others \u2013 he provides a contrast that has seemed to me to be lacking in the discussion. And that is the contrast between voting for someone just because they are of one\u2019s group, race or gender, and voting because they will represent one\u2019s interests in a way the others seem less likely to.\nBut should we vote on interests that are the product of one\u2019s \u2018identity\u2019? Women are now over 50% of the US population, but still you might feel that if you are voting in a US primary, you should have more impersonal interests at heart. (And of course I hope that elections in other countries will simlarly reflect their population\u2019s diversity, as some definitely have led the way in doing.) Fish\u2019s response is that there is no alternative to voting on interests:\nWhat this means is that the ritual deprecation of \u201cspecial interests\u201d makes no sense. All interests are special interests \u2013 proceed from some contestable point of view \u2013 and none is \u201cgenerally human.\u201d And that is why identity interests, as long as they are ideological [thick]and not merely tribal [thin], constitute a perfectly respectable reason for awarding your vote.\nFish\u2019s claim is not obviously true. The 18th century philosophy Hume argued that we need to have a more general point of view toward humanity in order to act morally, and it seems true that we might want a candidate who will take action to stop the murders in Darfur even though that is perhaps not in our special interests in any intuitive sense. At the same time, his point that all interests proceed from some contestable point of view appears plausible, despite the efforts of some philosophers to find a point of view that isn\u2019t contestable.\nSo Fish leaves us with some questions. My own view of Fish\u2019s arguments is that voting on identity might be imperfect, but it might well be the best one can do. Certainly, feminist thought has made me (and surely many others) wary of assuming one has found an impersonal point of view. At least in many people\u2019s hands, the impersonal point of view is what leaves the inequities invisible.\nAddition: Since writing this, I\u2019ve wished I had paid more attention to the word \u201cinterests.\u201d I\u2019m very inclined to the Humean (and others\u2019) view that we are interested in others\u2019 welfare and that it is a basic interest, not to be explained in terms of other interests. The interest might be limited; we may need to work on expanding it to all human beings, but it is not a self-regarding interest. Fish\u2019s idea of interest might be quite different; he might really think that all reasons are really self-regarding. That puts a quite different take on his arguments.\nThere\u2019s recent research that suggests even young infants care about others\u2019 welfare; have a look at: \u201cSocial evaluation by pre-verbal infants\u201d by Kiley Hamlin et al in Nature, 2007, p. 557.\nFrom xkcd Thanks, Mr Jender!",

        "title": "Speaking Briefly on Long Subjects: An Interview with Steven Schwartz | Fiction Writers Review",
        "raw_content": "With the release of Steven Schwartz's new collection, Little Raw Souls, Steve Wingate speaks with the author about character preoccupations, the differences between working with indie publishers and major houses, autobiography in fiction, and more.\nSteven Schwartz has a lot of fiction history under his belt\u2014almost three decades\u2019 worth\u2014and it shows in the stories of his latest work, a collection called Little Raw Souls from the up-and-coming Pittsburgh-based indie press Autumn House. The narrating voices of the collection, whether first person or third, do not observe the world with the surprised uncertainty of the self-discovering ingenue. Instead they tend to discover trouble in familiar settings, often brought on by small but consequential changes in equilibrium.\nIn \u201cMeeting Miles,\u201d a man who had a teenage crush on his cousin learns decades later that she has undergone a sex change. In \u201cStranger,\u201d a woman who falls asleep at an airport is less concerned that her wallet has been stolen than that the man who did it kissed her on the cheek. In \u201cOpposite Ends of the World,\u201d a man calls his whole life into question when his neighbors complain about his barking dogs.\nNot every story follows this pattern; \u201cAbsolute Zero,\u201d about a teenage would-be Marine with a dying mother, is one of the best stories I\u2019ve read in this young century, and its changes in equilibrium are far from small. But the collection overall digs into those unexpected, tantalizing moments when we humans consider the possibility that the narratives we make of our lives to not cohere in precisely the way we think they do. Some other story is going on as well, and Little Raw Souls delves fruitfully into those tales. It\u2019s a rich, rewarding read that left me feeling all too susceptible to such moments of realization in my own life\u2014a not entirely comfortable feeling, but precisely the one that has always drawn me to literature.\nSchwartz teaches in the residential MFA program at Colorado State University and the low-residency MFA program at Warren Wilson College. Recently, he has become fiction editor at Colorado Review. He has also written, for Fiction Writers Review, a 2010 essay on \u201cFinding\u2014and Losing\u2014Memories in Fiction\u201d that we hope you\u2019ll check out.\nSteven Wingate: Your characters have the raw quality that your title suggests; they are vulnerable, stuck, feeling out of viable options, and perfectly ripe for changes they can\u2019t expect. At what point in the process did you know you were writing about these raw souls? Did the theme announce itself to you and the stories follow, or did the stories build toward the theme by accretion?\nSteven Schwartz: When I first came across the phrase \u201clittle raw souls\u201d in an Ann Carson poem, albeit used in a different context, I sat straight up, knowing it was to be the book\u2019s title. The description summarized a preoccupation of mine about what happens when characters lose their illusions and have to find some way to endure or not. Most of the stories in the collection include some sort of precipitating event that forces the characters to act: a robbery, a terminal illness, a car accident, an unexpected birth\u2014even a mundane complaint about a dog barking. But what\u2019s often driving the characters is the past. Although it may be distant for them, something happens that causes it to become raw all over again. As a writer, you try to create those circumstances, those events and actions that will bring the past to the fore.\nThe word \u201clittle\u201d in your title throws me a bit, maybe because I\u2019m used to thinking about the soul as something broad and connected to the infinite. What is it about your characters that makes their souls \u201clittle\u201d? Is this a word they would use to describe themselves?\nIt\u2019s hard for me to think about the short story without the word \u201clittle\u201d attached to it. I don\u2019t mean this as a diminishment. The short story has always been about the little person\u2019s struggles\u2014whether they be the grieving parents in Raymond Carver\u2019s \u201cA Small Good Thing\u201d coping with a harassing baker during the dying of their child, or the poor clerk, Akaky Akakievich, in Gogol\u2019s \u201cThe Overcoat,\u201d trying in his crushed existence to hold onto his one prized possession. Characters who populate short stories generally have less grand schemes to plot than private and uncelebrated troubles to manage. Also, \u201clittle\u201d as a modifier suggests childlike for me. When people find themselves in extreme circumstances, as many of my characters do, they often discover a renewed innocence. Rather than being defeated, I think one can experience a quiet direction, which you might call a soul\u2019s clarity\u2014if such an entity exists.\nLittle Raw Souls is a story collection, which tips the balance of your body of work ever so slightly in the direction of short fiction (three titles) over novels (two). Can you talk about your relationship with each form?\nGenerally speaking novels are beasts; short stories strokable creatures. I didn\u2019t write a novel until I was in my forties. Stories were my first love that I left for bigger ambitions and when those bigger ambitions\u2014the third and fourth novels\u2014didn\u2019t pan out I returned contritely to the form and fell in love all over again. I used to believe I needed to save everything for a novel. Such a good line or situation! Surely I can have some character say or do that in a novel! But I slowly came to understand what I probably knew all along: there are simply subjects better suited to the short story.\nI\u2019ve heard a lot of definitions, and attempts, to define the diversity of the short story, but my favorite is Chekhov\u2019s: speaking briefly on long subjects. Any good story will offer something long in reflection. In a short story, too, you can\u2019t dwell while winding up or winding down as you can in a novel. Getting to and sustaining the story\u2019s intensity\u2014that vital nexus of character, conflict, and voice\u2014becomes paramount. So I spend a lot of time looking at the first five pages of a draft, swallowing hard, and then cutting them and discovering the real start of the story on page six. Of course, a novel takes massive editing too, but with a story I\u2019m always gauging its heat, as if I might pass my hand over top and feel when it goes cold and then know I have a weak spot. Unlike with a novel, I can keep an entire short story in my head. It works by exclusion, culling the unessential, whereas the novel functions by inclusion, sucking in research, stray comments, family stories, lovers, real and the imagined, like a central vac system.\nYour first book, the story collection To Leningrad in Winter, came out from a university press in 1985. You\u2019ve worked with big houses like William Morrow, and now you\u2019re with Autumn House, a relatively young press that\u2019s establishing a strong reputation. What has changed, from your perspective, about the publishing end of the literary life in those intervening years?\nI\u2019ve run the gamut, no doubt about it. There are advantages (and disadvantages) to each type of publisher. University presses generally are concerned about equal treatment. Perhaps because of their academic mission they want every book to be fairly represented on their list. The major presses, with their commercial considerations, have no such concern about equal attention. They\u2019ll give priority to whatever will do well, that is, sell. A writer, especially a midlist or literary author, can get lost in such a system. On the other hand, nothing can match the distribution and marketing savvy of a large house, especially if it smiles favorably on you. And often these publishers get preferential treatment from the media for reviews, etc.\nMeanwhile the smaller presses, like the one I\u2019m with now, though they can\u2019t compete with the distribution or promotion\u2014there simply isn\u2019t the budget\u2014do offer a writer extraordinary personal attention. I get calls and emails back from Autumn House in record time, and boy does that make you feel wanted. Let\u2019s not forget, too, that some of the recent high-profile prizes, the National Book Award, the Pulitzer Prize, and the National Book Critics Circle Award, have gone to books from small presses, Lord of Misrule, Tinkers, and Binocular Vision, respectively.\nWhat levels the playing field of course (and challenges the traditional gatekeepers of publishing) is the Internet and social media. Newspapers, as everyone knows, have shrunk or abandoned their book pages. The online media to a degree has picked up the slack or even expanded the coverage. Yet there\u2019s one caveat: whereas your review in a newspaper might have been an imprimatur for your book to thousands of general readers, a blog will often have a niche audience. There may be more outlets but they\u2019re fractional. So you spend a lot of time, as I have, trying to figure out who the hell is interested in your work, because frankly the burden of publicizing a book whether you\u2019re with a big or small house is now on the author.\nWhenever I see a character who\u2019s a writer, my antennae perk up for the possibility of autobiography. You\u2019ve got one in \u201cGalisteo Street\u201d\u2014an intriguingly self-limiting man who \u201cwould die neither defeated nor miserable, just with his wings voluntarily clipped.\u201d Is there any autobiography in that story, or do you have a relationship with this character that\u2019s discernibly unique?\nI remember in graduate school being informed it was a bad idea to make your main character a writer. Never mind John Irving\u2019s Garp, Phillip Roth\u2019s Nathan Zuckerman, or Kerouac\u2019s Sal Paradise. Still, I followed the advice, feeling perhaps that writing about a writer indicated a lack of imagination. That said, there comes a time when you can\u2019t ignore, especially if you\u2019ve been writing for so long, an essential aspect of your life. Especially, too, when that element has so much to do with what for me often drives my characters: success\u2014or their lack of it. Writers anguish privately over why some other writer instead of them has gotten more recognition. I was speaking to my son the other day, who\u2019s waiting anxiously to hear about an acceptance to a college program. We were laughing over how writers are always waiting to hear about some acceptance (but more likely rejection). He wondered how I could stand it. That\u2019s a good question. After a while you just decide this is your fate and you deal with it.\nI\u2019ve certainly considered at critical moments\u2014when trying to start something from scratch; or feeling defeated because a book didn\u2019t do well; or believing you\u2019ve said all you have to say (witness Phillip Roth throwing in the towel recently)\u2014giving up myself. I know few writers who haven\u2019t contemplated how much happier they might be without writing, only to decide like me they have no idea what would replace the intensity and focus writing gives our lives. In my character Ben\u2019s case in \u201cGalisteo Street,\u201d with his \u201cwings voluntarily clipped,\u201d he\u2019s had his shot not just at success but its inflated cousin\u2014fame, which didn\u2019t come through, and he still can\u2019t get over that disappointment. But the real conflict for him is about his estranged daughter, and now new granddaughter, and how he seems to believe\u2014and this is often the dilemma for writers or any artists\u2014he\u2019s missed out on real life by pursuing his literary ambitions.\nThe narrator of the final story, \u201cThe Theory of Everything,\u201d struck me as different from the others. He\u2019s able to call things as he sees them more clearly and directly than some of your other narrators, who can get hung up in how they think things should be. Is this just because he\u2019s older than the others, or is there some specific trait that allows him this clarity?\nPartly it\u2019s age, partly generational. This story came out of a visit I made to interview a man who served in World War II and faced a German firing squad. He survived\u2014a story in itself\u2014but what came to interest me was that this man and his wife in their eighties were raising their grandchildren. I wanted to interview him because of his dramatic war experiences but discovered the real story, because of how it tied into issues in my own family when I was growing up, was his quieter, domestic heroism. You often think you know what you\u2019re writing about until the anticipated subject slips away faster than a yanked tablecloth. It\u2019s hard to create a truly heroic figure, because most characters frankly are flawed. But I knew in this case I had someone who had the stamina for which his generation is reputed and the clarity, to use your word, to know what was right to do. Ironically, the dramatic details of surviving the firing squad never made it into the story, though I tried. Rather, I found out that they were those invisible notes that inform the writer but have no place in the final story.\nSometimes I feel, long after I\u2019m done writing my characters, that I\u2019d like to meet them by chance and check in with them the way I would with an old acquaintance. Just see how they\u2019re doing, figure out if they have another story to tell me. Does anybody from Little Raw Souls stick with you in that way?\nI find that true both as a reader and writer. A character pops up spontaneously to say hi or nudge you. I suppose this is what sequels are for, or those \u201cpersona\u201d characters who appear in one book and return in another years later with more to say. Rabbit Angstrom, Updike\u2019s guy, goes through every life stage possible. I do think most writers keep a character in the wings\u2014a recent example would be Junot Diaz\u2019s Yunior\u2014and these characters won\u2019t quit you unless you kill them off. In truth, it\u2019s often the voice associated with a particular character that motivates more development. Plugging into that voice through the character makes for a fluency that is hard to give up. I have a character in this new collection, David, who appears in the story \u201cSeeing Miles,\u201d and has been in stories from my previous collection, Lives of the Fathers. His background may be inconsistent over time, but he\u2019ll occasionally resurface, grab my attention, and play out a further episode of his life in the same voice as years earlier.\nIn Little Raw Souls, I am curious what happens to the young man in \u201cAbsolute Zero\u201d who loses his mother to cancer. Does he in fact, as he wishes, join the Marines and survive combat? I also think about the retired highway inspector in \u201cBless Everybody\u201d who can\u2019t bear to acknowledge how much he wants to reconcile with his ex-wife until he gets mugged. I wouldn\u2019t mind knowing whether the couple desperate for a child in \u201cOpposite Ends of the World,\u201d but deterred by the husband\u2019s multiple sclerosis, actually gets their wish. Mostly, though, you let characters live out their lives off the page. Sometimes they do return, but they\u2019re often so changed in their new roles that you don\u2019t recognize them at first until they\u2019ve come and gone.\nVisit Steven Schwartz\u2019s author page.\nRead Colorado Review\u2018s interview with Schwartz at the beginning of his tenure as fiction editor.\nWe hope you\u2019ll also check out Schwartz\u2019s wonderful craft essay \u201cFinding\u2014and Losing\u2014Memories in Fiction,\u201d which we had the pleasure to publish in 2010.\nAutumn House, little raw souls, Steven Schwartz, Steven Wingate\tShare on Facebook Share on Twitter Save Instapaper Pocket\nSteven Wingate is a multi-genre author whose work ranges from poetry to gaming.

        "raw_content": "By M. Filtz on Dec 15, 2010\nValue, reputation, and opportunity\u2013 three reasons why Canadian business schools are becoming harder-to-ignore destinations for MBA seekers from around the world. Even a decade ago, all but a few Canadian schools were just an afterthought for students bound for business school in North America.\nNow there are over a dozen legitimate contenders for the best and brightest students from abroad.\nTake Biswajit Das. After declining offers from some of the best business schools in his native India, Das enrolled at Queen's School of Business in Kingston, Ontario, graduating in 2007. \u201cI wanted to be a global manager in the 'flat world,' someone who has the ability to accept and deal with diversity in the world,\u201d says Das.\n\u201cCanada is one of the most diverse countries in the world and became my obvious choice.\u201d\nAfter graduating from Queen\u2019s, Das landed a job with a top international consulting company, and has since worked all over the world.\nThe Human Development Index, with indexes factors like life expectancy, overall GDP and well being, consistently puts Canada near or at the top in terms of quality of life, perhaps causing waves of jealousy in their larger, lower-ranked neighbor to the south.\nIndeed, for American students, Canadian MBA programs can be seen as affordable alternatives to pricey US business schools. According to Marie-Claude Lyster, the associate director of recruitment at Concordia\u2019s John Molson School of Business lower tuitions are \u201cdefinitely a good incentive to come up north and study.\u201d\n\u201cBut, of course, we hope that it's not only based on the cost,\u201d she adds, \u201cbut that they're still looking for quality.\u201d\nIndeed, quality is becoming easier to find north of the border. Canadian business schools have been getting international exposure and acclaim. Concordia and 16 other Canadian MBA programs are AACSB-accredited. Meanwhile, three programs (Queen\u2019s, HEC Montreal, and the Telfer School of Management in Ottawa) have the highly coveted \u201ctriple accreditation,\u201d that is, they\u2019re accredited by the three most important accreditation associations: AACSB, the Association of MBAs (AMBA), and the European Quality Improvement System (EQUIS).\nMany Canadian programs also regularly show up in global rankings. York Schulich, for example, was ranked first in this year\u2019s Beyond Grey Pinstripes\u2019 \u201cGlobal 100\u201d ranking of innovative programs integrating aspects of social and environmental stewardship. In Business Week\u2019s non-U.S. ranking this year, Queen\u2019s is the number-one program, with University of Western Ontario Ivey and the University of Toronto Rotman close behind at number four and eight, respectively.\nBut Canada is a big place, and many international students may be wondering about where in this huge expanse all these first-rate universities are. In fact, most of the business schools are in Canada\u2019s two largest cities, Montreal and Toronto. Both cities have their appeal and attractions.\nMontreal is smaller than Toronto, but there are quite a few business headquarters based in Montreal, and it hasn't suffered as much from unemployment compared to other Canadian cities. Additionally, it is a bilingual city, and in this sense, universities there can appeal to both English speakers and Francophones. Concordia, for example, allows students to submit assignments in French, though courses are taught in English. Additionally, students coming from France and other French-speaking countries pay local Quebec fees rather than international rates.\nToronto, on the other hand, is like Montreal\u2019s bigger cousin \u2013 larger in almost every aspect. It's the financial center of the country, centrally located, and just a short flight away from other North American economic hubs, like New York and Chicago.\nFor international students looking to settle in Canada after graduation, the country offers some very unique advantages.\n\u201cThe Canadian government allows students in a two-year program like this one to stay in Canada on a work visa for three years after they graduate,\u201d notes Charmaine Courtis, executive director of student services and international relations at York Schulich.\n\u201cA lot of our students will probably consider permanent residency after graduation so they can consider working,\u201d says Marie-Claude Lyster at Concordia in Montreal. \u201cOr they'll get a work permit for one year after graduation, to gain some experience in Canada and go back to their country.\u201d\n[Read more: Working in Canada After an MBA]\nAlthough Biswajit Das graduated from Queen\u2019s in 2007, he did not stay in Canada. Nonetheless, he does not hesitate to recommend the experience of doing an MBA there, if only for the international experience.\n\u201cThe world is getting flatter and one has to work with folks from other parts of the world and identify patterns and accept different points of view,\u201d says Das. \u201cA country such as Canada and a program like Queen's certainly gets you ready for that. I share my experiences with folks who have done their MBA in India, and I know what they have missed!\u201d\nSome programs have tapped into this concept and are adapting to it. Starting in January 2010, Schulich is offering a \u201cMBA in India\u201d program where students do the first year of a two-year program in India, after which they take a short class to help them integrate in Canada, and complete the program at Schulich\u2019s Toronto campus.\n\u201cWe have always had an interest in being a global school, and so this just increases our globalization,\u201d says Charmaine Courtis at Schulich.\nSo while students from around the world are coming to Canada for international exposure, it seems Canadian business schools \u2013 like leading business schools everywhere - are seeing their growing success as a two-way street: Canadian business schools are now coming to them.\nPhoto: Steve Jurvetson / Creative Commons (cropped)\nHalifax, Canada 6 Followers 10 Discussions\nSt. John's, Canada 23 Followers 10 Discussions\nSaint Mary's University - Sobey School of Business\nHalifax, Canada 13 Followers 13 Discussions\nQu\u00e9bec City, Canada 5 Followers 5 Discussions\nCalgary, Canada 22 Followers 32 Discussions\nUniversity of Manitoba - Asper School of Business\nWinnipeg, Canada 11 Followers 15 Discussions\nUniversity of Ottawa - Telfer School of Management\nOttawa (Canada), Canada 17 Followers 29 Discussions\nWaterloo, Canada 15 Followers 11 Discussions\nBurlington (Canada), Canada 15 Followers 31 Discussions\nBrock University - Goodman School of Business\nSt. Catharines, Canada 18 Followers 19 Discussions\nLondon (Canada), Canada 30 Followers 71 Discussions\nMemorial - Newfoundland\nSMU - Sobey\nCalgary - Haskayne\nU Manitoba - Asper\nOttawa - Telfer\nWilfrid Laurier - Waterloo\nWilfrid Laurier - Toronto\nMcMaster - DeGroote\nBrock - Goodman\nMcGill - Desautels\nWestern Ontario - Ivey\nUBC - Sauder\nConcordia - Molson\nRyerson - Rogers\nCanadian MBA for Consulting Jan 24, 2019 3\nHEC Montreal v Ryerson's Ted Rogers - MBA Jan 08, 2019 2\nRyerson, Concordia MBA Jan 07, 2019 3\nCanada MBA with 670 GMAT Nov 30, 2018 10\nMBA suited for an oil industry career Nov 16, 2018 3\nProfile evaluation for Canadian MBA Sep 20, 2018 3\nBest Canada MBA with January / Spring Intake Aug 28, 2018 3\nAsper Vs Brock ISP Aug 06, 2018 2\nMBA in Canada Aug 01, 2018 8\nMcGill or Rotman Jul 11, 2018 6",

Clinicians must be aware of the evidence for and against the use of MM in their patients who may consider using this substance.\nMethods: A PubMed database search was performed using the text string: \u201cCannabis\u201d[Mesh] OR \u201cMarijuana Abuse\u201d[Mesh] OR \u201cMedical Marijuana\u201d[Mesh] OR \u201cMarijuana Smoking\u201d[Mesh] OR \u201ccannabi*\u201d OR \u201ctetrahydrocannabinol.\u201d The search was further limited to randomized clinical trial publications in English on human subjects to identify articles regarding the therapeutic use of phytocannabinoids for psychiatric and neurologic disorders. Commercially available products (ie, dronabinol, nabilone, nabiximols) and synthetic cannabinoids were excluded from the review.\nResults: Publications were identified that included patients with dementia, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson disease, Huntington disease, schizophrenia, social anxiety disorder, depression, tobacco use disorder, and neuropathic pain.\nDiscussion: There is great variety concerning which medical conditions are approved for treatment with MM for either palliative or therapeutic benefit, depending on the state law. It is important to keep an evidence-based approach in mind, even with substances considered to be illegal under US federal law. Clinicians must weigh risks and benefits of the use of MM in their patients and should ensure that patients have tried other treatment modalities with higher levels of evidence for use when available and appropriate.\nhttps://doi.org/10.9740/mhc.2017.01.029\n\u00a9 2017 CPNP.

Senator Gordon was President Pro-Tempore from 1982 to 1984, and Senate Majority Leader from 1988 to 1990. During his twenty years in the Senate, he was honored as the Most Effective in Committee, the Most Effective in Debate, and the Most Effective in the Senate.\nSenator Gordon was influential in the creation of Transit Block Grant program as he spearheaded the efforts to provide State Funding for transit operations in the Florida Senate. Senator Gordon, as Senator Majority Leader, was instrumental in the passing of the first bill to allow transit operation funding in 1988. That bill was subsequently vetoed by Governor Martinez. Senator Gordon then led the efforts to include the Transit Block Grant in a budget proviso before permitting the sale of turnpike bonds.\nAs a Florida State Senator, he sponsored constitutional amendments ensuring the Right to Privacy and Homestead Exemption. In addition, Senator Gordon pushed for a state lottery to help finance education and shepherded the \u201cGordon Rule\u201d to raise the level of writing for college students.\nPrior to his election to the Senate in 1972, Gordon was a Miami-Dade County School Board member from 1961 to 1969 and professionally, Senator Gordon, along with former U.S. Senator Claude Pepper, founded Washington Federal Savings and Loan of Miami Beach in 1952. He served as the bank\u2019s president from inception until the merger with First Nationwide Savings in 1981.\nFor Senator Gordon\u2019s long term and sometimes singularly support of State Operating Assistance in the Florida Senate and most especially his efforts to create the Transit Block Grant program as Senate Majority Leader, we posthumously welcome former Senator Gordon to the Florida Public Transportation Association Hall of Fame, Class of 2010.",

        "raw_content": "Goodbye Sweet Deep Dish Pizza: The Fly&Dine Diet\nThere\u2019s almost nothing more cliche than a New Years\u2019 diet, but year after year we embark on these fool\u2019s errands as if they\u2019re going to do us any good. The truth is, most people abandon diets after a week \u2014 if they even make it a week. So why do we do it? A new year means a new chance to reinvent yourself and if that means making a commitment (however unrealistic that may be) to losing weight, then so be it. I, like so many people, am once again making this commitment and I\u2019m vowing to make it stick \u2014 until I quit.\nI don\u2019t think I\u2019m going to quit, though, and that\u2019s for several major reasons:\n1. I\u2019m not trying to starve myself and I\u2019m not fooling myself into thinking that I will never have my indulgent foods again. That picture of the deep dish pizza up there? I ate that three weeks ago. I also ate roughly seven million other calories in December because I said, screw it, I\u2019m eating whatever I want whenever I want. That was actually a strategy of some sort. I decided to indulge myself time and time again so I would have no excuse in 2015 not to eat well. I ate EVERYTHING I like to eat and I did it guilt-free. Now? I have no interest in the pizza/hot dogs/burger/pasta that I gorged on last month.\n2. I\u2019m not putting myself in a position to cheat. A few weeks ago, a wonderful restaurant called Terrine opened in LA. I was invited to the opening and got to try a lot of fantastic dishes. Now, they\u2019re offering brunch and invited me in again to check it out. I politely declined. In December, media meals with unlimited food were perfect. In January, I\u2019m sticking to my fridge as much as possible.\n3. I actually like eating healthy foods now. This is a major change. Just the idea of a vegetarian meal a decade ago was enough to send this Chicago-born galoot into a rage. As a Californian of 10 years now, I have access to farmers\u2019 markets year-round and stellar produce is both available and affordable. I\u2019ve fallen in love with brussels sprouts and cauliflower and rich, multi-hued carrots. I get excited about CSA boxes. Vegetables and foods that haven\u2019t been processed within an inch of their lives make my meals better now. It\u2019s nice to grow up sometimes.\n4. I plan to eat in so much more than I eat out. As a food writer, I eat out constantly. In fact, I eat out so often that my doctor told me that I\u2019m the only patient he\u2019s ever had that he can\u2019t put on a diet. Losing weight requires consistency and when you eat in restaurants, you lose that consistency. I\u2019ll be turning down most invitations to eat out this month. After I get back to a healthy weight, I plan to eat out more than I will in January but still cook at home much more than I eat out. It\u2019s the only way to regulate my calories.\n5. See you later, sugar. If you want to know how I feel about sugar, read this piece I wrote over three years ago for Bon Appetit. Sugar is my enemy and it\u2019s convinced me to love it. How devilish. I hope to say goodbye to sugar as much as I can for the rest of my life. I don\u2019t know if that will hold, but I\u2019ll do the best I can.\n6. I have a partner in crime. She\u2019s the best ever. Truly. One of the most amazing things about her is that she\u2019s a trained chef and she knows how to turn super fresh produce into mind-blowing meals. We\u2019ll be going through all of this together and I\u2019m grateful. Having someone there for support is wonderful and I think it\u2019ll be the most important part of this journey.\nI\u2019m not a health coach. I\u2019m not a dietician. I\u2019m just a guy that\u2019s tired of the way I look when I pass by a mirror. I\u2019ve been a heavy kid for most of my life (with a few great exceptions) and I\u2019m ready to stop being that guy. If I can adhere to a few simple rules (no added sugar, avoid white flour, eat in often), I should be back to a comfortable weight in just a few months. If you have any tips that have worked for you, please throw them in the comments. I\u2019d love to get a whole set of great suggestions in there.\n6 Amazing Pizzas Worth Flying For - Gogo Concourse Blog says:\n[\u2026] little over a week ago, I posted a story with that gorgeous deep dish pizza photo above as the cover shot. While the title indicated I was [\u2026]\nI opened your article thinking I was going to find the name of a deep dish pizza restaurant worth flying to, not a New Year\u2019s resolution for healthy eating. So \u2026 how about a tip for those of us drooling over the photo. Where was that pie?\nEd, my man, I totally have you covered. That pizza was from Lou Malnati\u2019s in Chicago. In my opinion, it\u2019s the absolute best there is. Locations all over the city and they\u2019ll even ship to you, so you can save the airfare and eat it in the comfort of your own home. That said, the mail order is only 70% as good as the real thing.",

However, we do offer a few exceptions, such as this sample of Tokyo\u2019s long-running 76.1 InterFM. According to Wikipedia, this predominantly English language station \u201cmirrors American FM radio style\u201d. However, not surprisingly, the playlist, at least at the time of this recording, was much more adventurous than one would find on a typical U.S. station with a CHR format. A welcome difference is the inclusion of a news update.\nWhile we don\u2019t know the timeframe of if/when the station used them, artist Ben Folds included jingles he performed for InterFM on his 2010 B-Sides & Rarities Album \u201cSongs For Goldfish\u201d.\n1998 76.1 CHR FM InterFM Jan January Japan JODW K.C. KC Mainstream CHR Radio Tokyo\nDaniel Herrera March 11, 2013, 10:36 am\nBest Radio Station in Japan, I\u2019ve listened at Yokohama back in 1999, great, and I have lots of cassettes\nTanim,\nI think this was from 1998 as the 007 film \u201cTomorrow Never Dies\u201d that was mentioned on the aircheck came out in December of 1997. Also, Madonna\u2019s \u201cRay Of Light\u201d (which the song \u201cFrozen\u201d was on) was released in 1998 as well.\nThanks Robyn (and my apologies for the delayed response.) Now that I think about it, the person who recorded this aircheck for me would not have been in Tokyo in 1997. I\u2019ve edited the date accordingly.\nKC April 1, 2014, 7:59 pm\nWow! Thanks for posting this. This was taken from a Show called, KC Night Heat back in 1998. Great memories!",

        "raw_content": "Mods not allowed to be invisible\nCan we make this a rule? Black who used to be invisible has made himself visible. Still not heard a good justification for why mods should be allowed to be invisible\nCatterjune likes this\nRather than a rule, I think this is something that should only be strongly encouraged. And doesn't this concern only apply to Sakura? So this only seems like a rule you're asking for solely to further attack Sakura.\nNah, I made a big point out of when black and then candidate Giga were invsible. A mod should be very assessible when online and being invisible doesn't mesh with that. Sakura is the only one who never took the hint. Any other tin foil conspiracies Roxas?\nUnless Broken's been using invisible, Sakura is indeed the only invisible mod. This was something that got discussed before, and if memory serves, we never really got a definitive verdict from the team in favor of or against it. It seems unnecessary as a full-blown rule if literally one mod is using the invisible mode (this even includes Birdie in the event that she does get readded to the mod team), and if it isn't a rule so much as a suggestion, nobody has to stop using it, so mods that would otherwise use it will probably just keep using invisible mode. In short, with the current lineup the mod team has, this proposition is doomed to fail one way or the other, even if I think it's a good policy to have.\nExcept Black doesn't use invisible mode now that he's a mod, and Giga isn't one so there's no difference whether he uses it or not. Unless there's some game-changing information I'm missing out on, this argument is invalid.\nBlack listened. Sakura didn't. I want it made clear to future mods that it's not something to be encouraged. Roxas's is building a strawman here where he is attempting to paint any policy in terms of Sakura to sink them. Smart of him, but neither of you have mentioned merits against the rule?\nI don't believe an overgeneralization is helping your case. I am criticizing one policy you are offering because I do not believe this comes from a place of good faith.\nAnd I did mention merits against the rule, in that I don't believe it even needs to be a rule. There is not a sufficient enough reason to make this an ironclad rule, as the vast majority of the team, save for one exception, have taken the initiative to keep their activity public without there needing to be a rule. The onus is not on us to challenge your argument, or to justify why mods should be allowed to remain invisible. You made this thread, so you can take the time to provide more reasons for why this must be a rule.\nI have suggested 2 things\n(1) Shrinking the team, which you dishonestly made it seem like was just based on Sakura despite you, vcr, and I talking about a number of other mods just a page before\n(2) Now you're attempting to make it seem like this is all about sakura, when I made multiple efforts to get Black and other potential mods to confirm to it too.\nYou have attacked both using Sakura as a human shield. In a local sense, I'm not exaggerating.\nMods should be accessible to the user, and skulking around invisible isn't conducive to that objective. It defeats the point of Tormey's mod online addition. Furthermore, the last time anyone tried to defend being invisible, Dad, they misunderstood the term as being inactive. So not a lot of merit on your side.\nSaying something vastly popular doesn't need to be a rule because 95% of the population does follow it, but 5% doesn't is counter intuitive. That sort of scenario is exactly why rules are made so a minority cannot take advantage of a majority.\nIf you feel the need to further advocate for Sakura when that's not the relevant point here at all, if Sakura has a compelling reason to be invisible, I'm sure he can put that forward and an exemption can be carved out for him\nBecause Sakura is the only mod this is presently an issue with. If such a rule were to be implemented, only a single person would need to change in compliance with the rule, when Sakura's privacy setting was raised as an example of why people find Sakura to be unreliable for communication.\nYou seem to be conflating my disagreement over this suggestion with me arguing for the merits of remaining invisible, so to prevent further confusion, I will speak plainly and say that I agree that mods should be visible. What I disagree with is making that a hard and fast rule.\nI do not believe that Sakura would be taking advantage of a majority, if that is the scenario you are suggesting. It seems more that because of one person's mistakes, a rule must then be implemented, which other people must then abide by, despite this having not been much of an issue except with that one person.\nNo, I'm not advocating for Sakura, so if you are assuming that is my position, then I will clarify. I believe that, since Sakura is the only one who would have to actually change in accordance with the rule, that speaks less to a necessity for this rule, and more towards the grievances that people have with Sakura. It's a concern about a particular individual, rather than the larger issue you are making it out to be.\n@Yui I don\u2019t use invisible, as I don\u2019t see a point to it.\nRather than a rule, I think this is something that should only be strongly encouraged\nI don't. I think it should be a rule.\nI agree to the original terms of the opening post. Mods should be accessible. Changing names, being invisible, and other bullshittery runs counter to that and should not be allowed to happen.\nAnd doesn't this concern only apply to Sakura? So this only seems like a rule you're asking for solely to further attack Sakura.\nI don't know who Sakura is but if she's fucking up and not being accessible and not being accountable it sounds like a big fucking problem. Modship should be a leadership position, so start leading and stop cowering.\nI'm going to be blunt about this.\nReason why I used invisible mode is due to checking this place at times where I am either multi-tasking (such as in class) or doing other things and not an appropriate time to answer inquiries (such as late at night before I go to sleep). Even if I do not show up online, I am usually online to answer questions. Only times I will not be around is during college hours or morning - mid-afternoon on weekends because I work and have other commitments (or I have lack of internet).\n[Also need it for event reasons, such as the egg thing that will be coming up later in the week. That's about it.]\nI respond to PMs right away, so if I'm not here / available at the time, then actually message me and I'll reply when I am able to.\nWhy I showed up as invisible earlier was me checking this place late at night with the mode enabled on PC before I went to sleep (without clearing cookies). The invisible mode is disabled on the computer I am writing this from, but the settings do not transfer over.\nI got nothing to hide from any of you.\nJust to clear things up, I'm not female.\nAll I can say is I agree that it makes sense not to be invisible as a mod.\nAlso Sakura, it's fine to be online but not answer something right away as long as you do get to it. I get the worry but I think people would be more understanding of \"Sometimes I'm checking while at school can't respond\".\nAlso Pika lurks they wouldn't have any idea about your gender. :P\nNo one said you have to be online and respond right away Sakura...\nYes, Sakura should be held accountable. At least he was finally demoted to a regular mod, unless that had happened earlier.\n\u2026Okay, even I don't buy any of that as an excuse. If it's not an appropriate time to be answering inquiries, it's not like you need to be private. And if you're at school, I think the higher priority is that your instructor wouldn't want to see you on the forum, rather than the forum not seeing that you're at school.\nThe issue is that you seem to be constantly private, so there is never any guarantee that you will answer questions, let alone even look at them. Even if you are busy, it leaves the community thinking that have absolutely no interest in communicating with them whatsoever. And I don't think many people will care that you needed it for the event last this week, because this has been an issue people have had with you for months, so you don't get to hide behind \"Oh, there's an Easter Egg event where I need to be private.\"\nFrom what I've gathered in some of the complaints threads, you don't respond to PM's right away. While you were quick in responding to me, I am not going to assume that how quickly you responded to me is the same for anyone else. It's nice that you're finally Public at this time, but could you keep it at that after the event?\nReally just dropping in to say that, as someone who prefers to be invisible, it does suck to come online without replying to a PM air pressing matter... but I haven\u2019t gotten any flack about it.\nits easy to just glance and leave. I did it a lot at work, and it keeps me abreast of what\u2019s going on for when I get a chance TO address things.",

        "raw_content": "The Killing (AMC --> Netflix Series)\nDiscussion in 'Visual Arts' started by Ken_McAlinden, Feb 13, 2018.\nKen_McAlinden MichiGort Staff Thread Starter\nThread for continuing discussion of the series previously discussed here:\nWho Killed Rosie Larsen? (AMC Series \"The Killing\")\nAMC's The Killing will return for a 3rd season (was cancelled, since renewed)*\nAnyone watching AMC's \"The Killing\"\nSo, I just finished Season 2 of The Killing a couple of nights ago. I think this show was way underrated. It might not be top-flight like Breaking Bad or The Sopranos; nonetheless, it shouldn't be as far down the list as some pan it to be.\nAstute sleuths might have tied the murder back to the\nSpoiler: Sour Milk Sea\nDarren Richmond campaign\nall along, simply by keeping the story there so long. I wondered about this myself. Yet, his story was compelling enough in its own right where it didn't feel forced. It was almost like a bit of The Wire. The city, itself, was a major player. I know the kudos are late in coming, but good job!\nOh, and the way they gave it one more twist at the end? Great stuff! Hitchcock would be proud.\nI've read that there is a little controversy tied to the last two seasons. On again, off again, the content, etc., but I'll wait to hold judgement.\nWhat do you guys think; are the last two seasons as strong as the first two?\nI may be in the minority, but season 4 is the best season, in my opinion. I wasn\u2019t a huge fan of season 3.\nI can't say that I rate this series very highly. There were some good performances by the leads, but as far as the stories go (from what I can remember at this point), it just didn't do it for me...\nDeesky, Feb 13, 2018\npblmow Forum Resident\nI've seen season 4\npblmow, Feb 13, 2018\nDude! You recommended this series to me, out of a laundry list of shows I was thinking about watching! Ha!\nI mean, it's not mind blowing, but when a series is good enough where you want to come back for more, hey, they're doing something right. I grade it a solid B. I don't want to watch anything lower than a B-.\nI liked season 3 the best because of the minimum of red herrings, which are cast about endlessly (and frustratingly) in seasons 1 and 2 in order to keep a threadbare story alive. Season 4 started strong but soon became nonsense, and the forced happy ending for the two lead characters felt like a neatly tied bow on a pile of garbage the writers didn't bother to clean up. A tremendous missed opportunity, but at least it gave two excellent actors plum roles. Would that they get parts this good again in projects that deserve them.\nTo be honest, I don't remember when I made that recommendation and my memory of the show as a whole has faded (which is kind of indicative of the lack of impact it had on me). I do recall that season one was quite good, but I also know that the longer it went on, the less impressive it became.\nI'm glad you're enjoying it though! The other show which is kind of similar and which I think is better is The Tunnel, again with two great leads, but that too ended with a poor season!\nI really enjoyed The Killing though I still need to finish Season 4. And speaking of Mireille Enos and Joel Kinnaman, they're reuniting for a new Amazon TV Series. Something based on the movie Hanna, which I also haven't seen...\nJoel Kinnaman & Mireille Enos reunite for Amazon series\nJoel and Mireille were terrific together. I even liked Mireille's follow-up series, The Catch, produced by Shonda Rhimes but was cancelled.\nTorontotom, Feb 15, 2018\nI liked The Killing, all four seasons, and The Catch. There's far worse TV that some get excited about.\nI really enjoyed The Killing. Too bad it only lasted 4 seasons.\nI adored the first two seasons and managed to dutifully finished the last two which I didn\u2019t like at all.\nI agree, the ending was painful to watch and didn't fit the tone of the show at all.\nwolfram, Feb 15, 2018\nI feel like I\u2019m the only one who loved season 4.\nI loved the first two seasons...the last two, not so much. I thought the ending was really\nStarted it last week and am now onto season 2. It's a slow-burner for sure.\nI thought the case would be wrapped up by the end of the first season but it spilled onto season 2. No idea if the whole series deals with a single case or whether there will be another one but either way, let's hope it keeps my attention for the long run.\nI have to say I did not care for the character of Mitch Larsen who seemed to be a petty self-centered person who deserted her family and made no effort whatsoever to help in any way.\nSame thing with Jack. I hate kids on TV and movies. They're always annoying and there's never anything for writers to sink their teeth into so they're always written as being a hindrance. In the case of the protagonist's 13-year old son, he skips school, smokes and drinks, sends crime pics to a bunch of people which are then leaked onto the press, and disappears for an entire episode without taking his phone or letting his mom know. I hope he gets killed or left with his dad for the remainder of the series because I'm sick of being exposed to this little jerk. Ugh.\nMeanwhile, I love the character of Holder. There's an interesting one. I thought the protagonist, Linden, to be acted in a very bland fashion... not making me care much about her. Things started to look up in the last 2-3 episodes where she finally started to show some glimpse of emotion.\nStrat-Mangler, Mar 5, 2018\nI remember the backlash when the showrunner did not reveal the killer at the end of season one. I remember the meltdowns on IMDB and ew.com. People were angry and said they would not continue watching - and they didn't. It's too bad because I remember when it premiered, The Killing got good ratings.\nI've always wonder what would have happened if the show had resolved the mystery at the end of season one. Would it have lasted longer on AMC?\nIt was definitely a case where a show didn't gauge viewer expectations or underestimated how they would react to a lack of resolution.\nTorontotom, Mar 5, 2018\nI tend to wait a very long time before watching shows as I like to go at my own pace and not scramble to synchronize my viewing habits with others.\nBecause of this, I was unaware there was any backlash. Although I don't know if the case will ever be resolved, it is at an interesting place right now. Linden doesn't trust Holder, Oaks is out and we have no idea what happened, there's a possibility the Adams campaign had something to do with it, the casino still won't allow the use of their security devices for police viewing, next to nobody can be trusted in the PD, we don't know whether that's the end of Richmond's political career or if he'll still go up against Adams, etc.\nIt'll be interesting to see how things get back on track.\nI was one of those who quit. Probably posted about it here, as I'm sure there was a thread at the time. I think the show gave the expectation the mystery would be resolved by the end of the season. But the show, while well made, was a slow, painful slog to get through and then DIDN'T deliver what it had promised? I never bothered with anymore and don't miss the show. I'm plenty patient with slow and deliberate (I still rue the cancellation of \"Rubicon\") if the show creates an interesting enough world for me to want to be in it. \"The Killing\" didn't do that for me.\nagentalbert, Mar 5, 2018\nTorontotom likes this.\nI'm about halfway through the second season. I like it for the most part, I didn't get too upset that they didn't solve it in the first one. I find myself getting more upset at how ridiculously stupid Linden is. Holder, even though his 'home boy' stuff gets old at times, is at least somebody that I found myself caring about. On the other hand, Linden is someone who needs to lose her rights as a parent.\nGrunge Master, Mar 16, 2018",

        "raw_content": "A Path Toward Racial Equity\nAfter the death of Michael Brown, Jr. on Aug. 9, 2014, \u201cFerguson\u201d came to symbolize racial strife and inequality in the United States. From Paris to London to Singapore and throughout this country, the circumstances surrounding and following his death have sharply defined the challenges that demand transformation. The alternative to change is to accept an untenable environment that is fraught with inequities and continued conflict. The Governor asked a group of regional leaders \u2014 The Ferguson Commission \u2014 to study the situation and prove a path toward change. This is their report.\n\u201cI have felt the racism. I\u2019ve been a part of car stops. Even as a police officer I\u2019ve been stopped for no reason at all.\u201d\nByron has a complex set of experiences from growing up in North St. Louis and experiencing racism, as well as decades of public service as a police officer. This dual perspective has given him a unique insight into how policing can be reformed.\nOf cases in which an arrest warrant was issued in Ferguson, Black residents accounted for\nByron M. Watson is a veteran police officer with over 30 years of experience, and served with the St. Louis County Police Department from 1981 to 2008. He is also a member of The BackStoppers, a St. Louis-based nonprofit that provides financial assistance to the families of fallen law enforcement, firefighters, publicly funded paramedic, and EMTs.\nWatch Byron's Video Story\n\u201cWe won\u2019t get beyond where we are without having to have some very hard and courageous conversations with one another about our current state and our current reality.\u201d\nDisparity in graduation rate for Black students versus White students in Missouri\nDr. Sharonica Hardin is the Assistant Superintendent of Human Resources and Leadership Development at Ritenour School District. She reflects on the current educational disparities, and how systemic changes in education in the region can empower youth to succeed.\nRead Sharonica's Story\n\u201cWe have to invest in human capital and become focused on that. That means that every child is nurtured all the way along until they enter the world of employment. That\u2019s where we\u2019re really failing.\u201d\nof Black American household are homeowners compared with 73% of White American households.\nDon Logue has worked first hand with the healthcare needs of individuals and their families, particularly those on Medicaid. This coupled with experiences in economic development and housing have provided him with a greater appreciation of the complexities of community development. He is currently focused on the integrated delivery of housing, food, pharmacy, and clinical services in mixed-use environments, including virtual health applications.\nRead Don's Story\n\u201cThis interconnectedness has led to a kind of community-building that I haven\u2019t seen before \u2013 unlike anywhere where I\u2019ve lived.\u201d\nBillion dollar boost to the St. Louis economy if racial wage gaps were eliminated.\nMustafa Abdullah is an East Coast native and Muslim who came to St. Louis a few years ago to work with the American Civil Liberties Union of Missouri. The following interview excerpts show how he\u2019s been touched by the past year\u2019s events on different levels. He also talks about the ways he\u2019s seen folks near and far, from many walks of life, come together to create a region that\u2019s better, stronger, and more equitable for everyone who lives here, regardless of religion, race, or ancestry.\nThrough our collection of research\n\u0003in creating this report one thing became clear:\nThe St. Louis region must face its reality in order to thrive.",

        "raw_content": "Acting! On the web! \u00bb \u00ab Even cooler\nReality is a constituency\nAlan Sokal\u2014who has a history of criticizing the irrational Left\u2014and Chris Mooney\u2014who has come down hard on the anti-science Right\u2014have teamed up to write an op-ed that makes suggestions to keep both sides from falling into the same trap again.\nI think the root cause of the problem is that we have a democracy in which education is an insufficiently high priority, and either party can succumb to the temptation of going for votes by appealing to the most uneducated segment of the electorate. The Republican party has thrived in the past by going the other way, and building its base in the wealthy elite (which, unfortunately, has no certainty of being coupled to reason and education); they\u2019ve long since learned that religion is a handy bridge to get votes from the most irrational side of the population, and have ridden the crazy train to power.\nDemocrats have long been populists, but I suspect that the focus on labor has at least grounded the party in practical concerns. That focus is fading away fast, and I worry that in an attempt to rebuild a solid majority they are also going to cast a covetous eye on the religious masses (hence my reluctance to support Barack Obama) and get there in the wrong way.\nSokal and Mooney propose some top-down safeguards against the further encroachment of anti-science bias into government. These are good ideas.\nTo address this new crisis over the relationship between science and politics, we propose a combination of political activism and institutional reform. Congress needs to establish safeguards to protect the integrity of scientific information in Washington \u2014 strong whistle-blower protections for scientists who work in government agencies would be a good start.\nWe also need a strengthening of the government scientific advisory apparatus, starting with the revival of the Office of Technology Assessment. And we need congressional committees to continue with their investigations of cases of science abuse within the Bush administration, in order to learn what other reforms are necessary.\nAt the same time, journalists and citizens must renounce a lazy \u201con the one hand, on the other hand\u201d approach and start analyzing critically the quality of the evidence. For, in the end, all of us \u2014 conservative or liberal, believer or atheist \u2014 must share the same real world. Antibiotic-resistant bacteria do not spare deniers of evolution, and global climate change will not spare any of us. As physicist Richard Feynman wrote in connection with the space shuttle Challenger disaster, \u201cnature cannot be fooled.\u201d\nTo avoid nature\u2019s punishment, we must take steps now to restore reality-based government.\nI\u2019d just add that we also need more bottom-up preventive measures: more education. I want a reality-based government, and the best way to get there is to increase the pool of reality-based voters.\n(Crossposted to The American Street)\nMore education is useless. Better education might have an effect.\nA couple of years ago I floated the idea of a rationalist caucus within the Michigan democratic party. I tried it out on our local democratic club and on an on-line forum which had a large large proportion of self-identified rationalists (the JREF forums).\nThe idea of a rationalist caucus would be to provide a focus point for people interested in evidence-based decision making in the political arena. To evaluate the amount of evidence-based thinking various candidates and proposals reflect. To support candidates which use evidence in their arguments. And to generally support the development of critical thinking in all areas, including education.\nAs a card-carrying democrat, I would create this as a caucus of the Michigan democratic party, but there would be no reason why a similar republican group couldn\u2019t be formed.\nThe members of the local democratic club didn\u2019t appear to understand the concept, or the need. The total response from the JREF crowd was \u201crationalist caucus is a cool name\u201d.\nMind you, my street cred was not large in either place, but still\u2026\n\u2026maybe in a couple years I\u2019ll have more time to devote to the development of such a caucus. Once I finish my MBA, quit this job, get a house which doesn\u2019t require rebuilding, and take my position in public office. But if someone wants to take this idea and run with it, and even claim credit for it, I wouldn\u2019t care. Ideas are a dime a dozen. The person doing the work to develop an idea deserves the credit.\nDon\u2019t count the unions out yet: SEIU is really kicking butt in the service industry, even in the South. I highly suggest checking them out.\nAs for the lefty folks o\u2019 faith: Can\u2019t speak for the Christians, but most of the lefty and even the libertarian Pagans are pretty anti-authoritarian (many of them having grown up Fundie), so they\u2019re not as big a danger as the Fundies (the more woo-woo cult-of-personality types are a danger, but that\u2019s true in most any field of human endeavor). Most of them just want to keep from getting burned at the stake again,; they don\u2019t want to trash high school science courses (that is, they\u2019re not going to ask any HS science teacher to say that Thor makes electricity), and are big fans of inclusivity. Go to a typical Pagan listserv and you\u2019ll find discussions on how monotheism invariably leads to authoritarianism, whereas polytheism allows for a more open mind. (Of course, polytheism didn\u2019t stop the Roman Republic from being overthrown, but hey.)\nDayv says\nCaledonian said:\nWell, I think now you\u2019re just picking nits. Poor education is hardly education at all. It is a waste of time at best and simple indoctrination far more frequently.\nI\u2019ve said to some friends that maybe it\u2019s time for one of us secular liberals to raise the ante on Couters moronic \u201cbook\u201d with something like \u201cNot Godless ENOUGH.\u201d If anything, the \u201cspirituality\u201d on the left can be even flakier than that on the right\u2013although it probably causes less immediate physical harm.\nWell, I think now you\u2019re just picking nits.\nI agree that \u201cpoor education is hardly education at all\u201d\u2026 but I also think that much of what makes our education \u201cpoor\u201d (to the extent that it is poor, that is; I think much of the public-schools-in-crisis talk is really right-wing scaremongering, but that\u2019s another topic) is lack of material support. If by \u201cmore education\u201d what you mean is more buildings, more teachers, more computers, more books in the library, more microscopes, more tubas\u2026 well, then, in that case I\u2019d say there\u2019s a very large intersection between \u201cmore education\u201d and \u201cbetter education.\u201d\nBill Dauphin:\nYes. The goodness of education depends in part on the quantity available.\nIn the early 1990\u2019s, hanging around with hip, south Minneapolis progressive political activists, I began to realize that I had a significantly different understanding of how the world worked than most of my friends.\nWhile they had all rejected their traditional religious upbringing, as I had, they had replaced them with ideas I found equally ridiculous. Eventually I got the reputation as a total kill-joy because I would roll my eyes when cocktail party conversation drifted to topics such as hauntings, past lives, food toxicity, fish falls, eyeball readings, UFOs and you name it.\nIn one discussion with a friend, he suddenly shouted at me saying \u201cYou\u2019re a Materialist!\u201d It was said with the same accusatory tones that a right-wing Republican might point at you and say \u201cYou\u2019re a Liberal!\u201d\nThen in 1996, I ran across Alan Sokal on the IgNobel Prize award page. I didn\u2019t know anything about the controversy, so I followed the link to the article he had published. As I read it for the first time I thought \u201cThis guy is an idiot \u2014 this article is not rational.\u201d Then I read further about the hoax. Because I as a layperson was able to see through Sokal\u2019s article, I found it even more shocking that the thing had been published in an academic journal.\nThis led me to read more about Alan Sokal and I discovered he was from the political left. Hurray! I had finally found someone on the left who valued facts, evidence, and reason. Alan Sokal is one of my heroes.\nMinnesotachuck says\nIt seems to me that one element of education that is not emphasized enough is the general epistemological underpinnings of science, that is the scientific method in general terms. In my (admittedly long ago) experience, to the extent the scientific method was covered at all, it was done so on a detail basis as it applied to the particular science under study (mostly physics in my case) and not at a level as it applied to the acquisition of knowledge in general. Room in curricula should be made for addressing this for at least an hour or two at the high school level, if not before.\nPhoenix Woman:\nBy the time the Roman Empire was swirling in the bowl of history in its final and fast circles, it was predominatly Christian. At least on the surface. And Christianity had a lot to do with it, as historians since Gibbon have recognized. Among the detritus that went down the drain was the tradition and documents of rational inquiry the Romans adapted from the Greeks. Thus the descent into the Dark Ages. A fascinitating recent book on this topic is The Closing Of The Western Mind: The Rise of Faith and the Fall of Reason, by British scholar Charles Freeman. Here\u2019s one of the more pithy passages I copied from the book for my \u201cQuotations\u201d file:\n\u201cIt was perhaps particularly unfortunate that the silencing of debate extended beyond the spiritual and across the whole Greek intellectual tradition. The effects of Paul\u2019s condemnation of \u2018the philosophers\u2019 could not have been put more clearly than by John Chrysostom, an enthusiastic follower of Paul. \u2018Restrain our own reasoning, and empty our mind of secular learning, in order to provide a mind swept clear for the reception of divine words.\u2019 Basil echoes him: \u2018Let us Christians prefer the simplicity of our faith to the demonstrations of human reason . . . For to spend much time on research about the essence of things would not serve the edification of the church.\u2019 This represented no less than a total abdication of independent intellectual thought, and it resulted in a turning away from any speculation about the natural world as well as the divine. \u2018What purpose does knowledge serve \u2013 for as to knowledge of natural causes, what blessing is there for me if I should know where the Nile rises, or whatever else under the heavens the \u201cscientists\u201d rave about?\u2019 wrote Lactantius in the early fourth century.\u201d P 316\nWhile I haven\u2019t read Mooney\u2019s book \u2014 some evidence of right-wing attacks on science are just too obvious, so reading a book about it when you\u2019ve been watching it for years seems superfluous \u2014 I think it\u2019s important to note that Alan Sokal\u2019s work on \u201cleft wing\u201d attacks on science contains some notoriously (and ironically) bad scholarship. It\u2019s quite true that, to this day, some on the left (especially the anti-genetically modified food people) are as bad as the anti-climate science folks on the right, but Sokal\u2019s work went further than saying things like that. When it did so, it got sloppy, was based on misreadings (or non-readings) of certain texts or transcripts, etc. Even his hoax itself was problematic for several reasons. I\u2019d rather see Mooney go it alone, really, rather than hitch his wagon to someone who does sloppy scholarship.\nOkay, I just have to quote Joey Burns here.\nSeason\u2019s trial finds man\u2019s mistakes fair game\nThanks, I feel better now. Back to your regularly-scheduled discussion.\ncbutterb says\nChris: Sokal has written extensively about the outcome of his hoax and warned about overgeneralizing the results. Nonetheless, his conclusion that that journal was sloppy and not committed to truth is on pretty solid ground, I\u2019d say. (And FWIW, Dawkins has written about the excesses of hermeneutic and semiotic blathering as well.)\nWhere has Sokal been sloppy?\nI assume he\u2019s talking about Sokal and Bricmont\u2019s book \u201cFashionable Nonsense\u201d (originally published in france as \u201cImpostures Intellectuelles\u201d.) I have not read it but am vaguely aware that some of its scholarship has indeed been criticized.\nI find it hard to take anything Chris from Muddling Memory says, especially when he makes a drive-by whack at his opponents without evidence.\nPlease, Chris, enlighten us with thine evidence. You\u2019re obviously right about everything, so show us the proof.\nFashionable Nonsense is really two books in one, a point which has caused more than its fair share of confusion. One portion, the chapters devoted to demonstrating the abuses of scientific and mathematical jargon by postmodern writers, is essentially a dark comedy. The second portion addresses questions about epistemic relativism, the alleged incommensurability of Kuhnian paradigms and so forth. The two halves are more strongly linked by sociology than they are by logic, in that the people who commit the sins detailed in A (and their followers) tend to hold the views criticized in B.\nSo far, I have been remarkably underwhelmed by the criticisms leveled at Sokal and Bricmont\u2019s publications. Without doubt, there are serious issues involved here which should be investigated with the highest possible standards of scrutiny; the problem is that Sokal and Bricmont have done a better job of doing that to other people than other people have to them.\nFor example, I expected much more from Michael Berube. His review of Fashionable Nonsense has some good points; he drew attention to the \u201ctwo books in one\u201d fact, which often goes overlooked. However, in trying to take Sokal down, he resembled more a person who was disquieted by what Sokal said and thus threw all the verbiage he could manage in Sokal\u2019s general direction, without achieving much coherent form. He slips past the problem that scientific empiricism has been a strong argument for moral relativism (by showing that laws of nature do not reference human standards, and by pushing God into the Gaps). Now, moral relativism is a sticky thing, difficult to talk about in any way that is better than painfully naive, but Berube should have done better than he did.\nHe says, for example, that he does not believe \u201cthat a universally objective account of truth is even necessary for social change: any theory that speaks of relative probabilities, contingencies, and likely outcomes, I think, will suffice for the job\u201d. But Sokal and Bricmont do not advocate a universally objective account of truth \u2014 not if the word \u201ctruth\u201d also encompasses moral and ethical propositions. Berube undermines himself by asking for a system encompassing \u201crelative probabilities, contingencies and likely outcomes\u201d, because this is what science does. It teaches us to gauge the likelihood of different outcomes, to hold multiple alternative working hypotheses in our heads, and to investigate contingencies with a close eye. Few other areas of the human enterprise have done this so stringently.\nFar from insulating against Sokalian scientism, Berube is actually wishing that we could make the elucidation of morals more scientific.\nNobody seems to be talking about Sokal\u2019s more recent work, such as the essay \u201cPseudoscience and Postmodernism: Antagonists or Fellow-Travelers?\u201d which offers much more textual evidence and argumentation on the issues raised in part B of Fashionable Nonsense.\nHere\u2019s a PDF link to the essay I mentioned.\nThank you Blake! I have read Alan Sokol\u2019s more recent articles, including the one you mentioned. Here he makes that big connection as to why science education is important to a society:\nThus, I am indeed mildly disconcerted by a society in which 50% of the adult populace believes in extrasensory perception, 42% in haunted houses, 41% in possession by the devil, 36% in telepathy, 32% in clairvoyance, 28% in astrology, 15% in channeling, and 45% in the literal truth of the creation story of Genesis. But I am far more profoundly worried by a society in which 21-32% believe that the Iraqi government under Saddam Hussein was directly involved in the attacks of September 11, 2001, 43-52% think that U.S. troops in Iraq have found clear evidence that Saddam Hussein was working closely with al-Qaeda, and 15-34% think that U.S. troops have found Iraqi weapons of mass destruction. And If I am concerned about public belief in clairvoyance and the like, it is largely because of my suspicion that credulity in minor matters prepares the mind for credulity in matters of greater import \u2014 and, conversely, that the kind of critical thinking useful for distinguishing science from pseudoscience might also be of some use in distinguishing truths in affairs of state from lies. (Not a panacea, mind you, but just of some use.)\nBefore I found Pharyngula, I used to frequent the Alan Sokal site to read pearls like this one.\nYou\u2019re welcome, Sonja.\nI just shipped some software to a High School in Vermont and went to their web site to see if I could get a name of the teacher so I could add them to my mailing list. There were 26 teachers whose title is \u201cSpecial Education Paraeducator\u201d or some other title that identified them as a non-traditional educator (i.e. not Science, History, Math, etc.) There were around 30 titles in traditional education areas and another half dozen administrative types. I suspect that the Paraeducators have some role in IDEA compliance so it\u2019s not the school districts fault that they are spending money on them.\nDoes anyone know how much of the money spent on schools actually goes toward educating the students and how much is spent on compliance with various mandates from Washington like IDEA and No Child Left Behind?\nJScarry,\nI\u2019m confused about the tone of your post. Do you disagree with educating students with disabilities? Or with Special Education?\nIf you do disagree with educating students with disabilities, then do you think only the \u201cright\u201d students should have access to the public education that can make them more productive, functional members of our society?\nFYI \u201cParas\u201d (if it means the same thing here) are an important part of Special Education (they aid students with special needs in the classroom) and actually make very little money.\nPZ I came across this moment after having a conversation with a friend in liguistics about the subjective nature of reality. Thanks for the antidote to that particular brain sprain. (oooh mixed metaphors)\nBuddha on a bicycle, is there any kind of sloppy thinking that Chris won\u2019t defend?\nThere\u2019s also a good general collection skewering various sorts of anti-science nonsense of all sorts: The Flight From Science and Reason, though by now it is a decade or so old.\nI\u2019ve also found the negative reviews of Sokal and Bricmont\u2019s book to be rather superficial \u2013 it is quite true that many of them (at least initially) didn\u2019t even seem to have read the bit where S&B say they are addressing two topics in one volume. Moreover, there is very little attention to the nonsense itself \u2013 only posturing about the importance of analyzing science, etc.\nWell, some of us do do that, but also like to think we know something about it. The scary thing is that the ridiculous bastardization of relativity of Latour (for example) can be shown to be provably wrong. Not just mistaken, but provably in error, and has been for decades. And yet this sort of stuff, while on the wane, is still cited.\nPygmy Loris\nI\u2019m opposed to \u201cmainstreaming\u201d kids who don\u2019t really belong in the classroom. They need special attention that they can\u2019t get in the classroom and it hurts their education and the rest of the class. I\u2019m opposed to mandates like NCLB that have no evidence behind them and are designed to make politicians look good at the expense of education. I\u2019m emphatically opposed to the concept that lawmakers in Washington have a better idea of how to run schools than the parents and teachers in the local communities.",

        "raw_content": "Chinese Bishops \u2018Taken Away\u2019 by Police: Report\nBrutish actions!\nVatican City \u2014 Four bishops loyal to the Vatican have been \u201ctaken away\u201d by Chinese police in recent days to take part in a state-sanctioned ordination, the Catholic news agency AsiaNews said on Monday.\n\u201cNobody knows where the four pastors are being held,\u201d the report said, adding that local sources had told AsiaNews that one of the bishops \u201cwas sobbing last night as he was dragged away by government representatives.\u201d\nThe Vatican and China have been locked in a bitter struggle in recent months over control of the Catholic Church in China, with the Vatican saying that ordinations being carried out by the official church are illegitimate.\nAsiaNews said three bishops were taken away yesterday: Liang Jiansen of Jiangmen, Liao Hongqing of Meizhou and Paul Su Yongda of Zhanjiang.\nBishop Joseph Junqi of Guangzhou has been missing for days.\nIt said four other bishops loyal to Pope Benedict XVI were due to take part in the ordination of Father Huang Bingzhang on July 14 in Shantou.\nIt said one bishop, Paul Pei Junmin, who has been designated as the principal celebrant at the ordination, is being protected by his priests in the cathedral of Shenyang in order not to participate in the ceremony.\nAsiaNews said that uniformed and plainclothes police officers were outside the cathedral, and said the priests were holding non-stop prayers inside.\nLong-running tensions between the Vatican and Beijing frayed earlier this month after the Holy See excommunicated an \u201cillegitimate\u201d Chinese bishop and China\u2019s state-run Church threatened to continue defying the pope.\nChina\u2019s 5.7 million Catholics are increasingly caught between showing allegiance to the officially sanctioned Patriotic Catholic Association or to the pope as part of an \u201cunderground\u201d Church not recognised by the authorities\u2026\nProposal: City of David (Almost) Never in Jerusalem\nThe Minimalists, doing their damndest, again\u2026\nIn a new article in the Journal of Hebrew Scriptures (11/12), Israel Finkelstein, Ido Koch, and Oded Lipschits propose that the city of Jerusalem only rarely included the \u201cCity of David\u201d ridge south of the Temple Mount. The article, available in pdf format, begins with these paragraphs:\nThe conventional wisdom regards the City of David ridge as the original mound of Jerusalem. Yet, intensive archaeological research in the last century\u2014with excavations in many parts of the ca. six hectares ridge (see Fig. 1), has proven that between the Middle Bronze Age and Roman times, this site was fully occupied only in two relatively short periods: in the Iron Age IIB-C (between ca. the mid-eighth century and 586 B.C.E.) and in the late Hellenistic period (starting in the second half of the second century B.C.E.). Occupation in other periods was partial and sparse\u2014and concentrated mainly in the central sector of the ridge, near and above the Gihon spring. This presented scholars with a problem regarding periods for which there is either textual documentation or circumstantial evidence for significant occupation in Jerusalem; we refer mainly to the Late Bronze Age, the Iron IIA and the Persian and early Hellenistic periods.\nScholars attempted to address this problem in regard to a specific period. Na\u2019aman (2010a) argued that the Late Bronze city-states are underrepresented in the archaeological record also in other places; A. Mazar (2006; 2010) advocated the \u201cglass half full\u201d approach, according to which with all difficulties, the fragmentary evidence in the City of David is enough to attest to a meaningful settlement even in periods of weak activity; one of us (Lipschits 2009) argued for enough spots with Persian Period finds on the ridge; another author of this paper (Finkelstein 2008) maintained that the weak archaeological signal from the late Iron I\u2014early Iron IIA (the tenth century B.C.E.) and the Persian and early Hellenistic periods reflects the actual situation in Jerusalem\u2014which was only sparsely populated in these periods. Still one must admit that the bigger problem\u2014of many centuries in the history of Jerusalem with only meager finds\u2014has not been resolved.\nIn what follows we wish to put forward a solution to this riddle. Following the suggestion of Knauf (2000) regarding the Late Bronze Age and Iron Age I, we raise the possibility that similar to other hilly sites, the mound of Jerusalem was located on the summit of the ridge, in the center of the area that was boxed-in under the Herodian platform in the late first century B.C.E. Accordingly, in most periods until the second century B.C.E. the City of David ridge was outside the city. Remains representing the Late Bronze, Iron I, Iron IIA, and the Persian and early Hellenistic periods were found mainly in the central part of this ridge. They include scatters of sherds but seldom the remains of buildings, and hence seem to represent no more than (usually ephemeral) activity near the spring. In two periods\u2014in the second half of the eighth century and in the second half of the second century B.C.E.\u2014the settlement rapidly (and simultaneously) expanded from the mound on the Temple Mount to both the southeastern ridge (the City of David) and the southwestern hill (today\u2019s Jewish and Armenian quarters).\nThe theory of \u201cthe mound on the Mount\u201d cannot be proven without excavations on the Temple Mount or its eastern slope\u2014something that is not feasible in the foreseen future\u2026.In other words, for clear reasons\u2014the inability to check our hypothesis in the field\u2014we cannot present a well-based solution for the \u201cproblem with Jerusalem.\u201d Rather, our goal in this paper is to put this theory on the table of scholarly discussion.\nThree objections come immediately to mind: (1) the biblical problem is that 2 Samuel and 1 Kings indicate that the city was near the Gihon spring and later expanded to include the Temple Mount (2 Sam 5:8; 24:18-25; 1 Kgs 1:33-45); (2) the logical problem is that such a proposed city would not have included a water source; (3) the archaeological problem is that the Gihon Spring is surrounded by massive fortifications. The authors dismiss these finds as a \u201criddle,\u201d but in fact they are compelling evidence against the thesis of this article. The traditional view that the City of David was the original core of Jerusalem explains all of the evidence in a more satisfactory way.\nThe above was posted at Bible Places.\nDr Leen Ritmeyer explains why he finds the above proposal doubtful.\nSex Trafficking of Children in the USA\nHere\u2019s a fresh report on the situation:\nA dirty secret it is!\nSt Benedict\u2019s Day\nAnother one of my favourite Saints:\nIt is unfortunate that no contemporary biography was written of a man who has exercised the greatest influence on monasticism in the West. Benedict is well recognized in the later Dialogues of St. Gregory, but these are sketches to illustrate miraculous elements of his career.\nBenedict was born into a distinguished family in central Italy, studied at Rome and early in life was drawn to the monastic life. At first he became a hermit, leaving a depressing world\u2014pagan armies on the march, the Church torn by schism, people suffering from war, morality at a low ebb.\nHe soon realized that he could not live a hidden life in a small town any better than in a large city, so he withdrew to a cave high in the mountains for three years. Some monks chose him as their leader for a while, but found his strictness not to their taste. Still, the shift from hermit to community life had begun for him. He had an idea of gathering various families of monks into one \u201cGrand Monastery\u201d to give them the benefit of unity, fraternity, permanent worship in one house. Finally he began to build what was to become one of the most famous monasteries in the world\u2014Monte Cassino, commanding three narrow valleys running toward the mountains north of Naples.\nThe Rule that gradually developed prescribed a life of liturgical prayer, study, manual labor and living together in community under a common father (abbot). Benedictine asceticism is known for its moderation, and Benedictine charity has always shown concern for the people in the surrounding countryside. In the course of the Middle Ages, all monasticism in the West was gradually brought under the Rule of St. Benedict.\nToday the Benedictine family is represented by two branches: the Benedictine Federation and the Cistercians.\n\u201cRightly, then, the liturgy is considered as an exercise of the priestly office of Jesus Christ. In the liturgy the sanctification of man is manifested by signs perceptible to the senses\u2026; in the liturgy full public worship is performed by the Mystical Body of Jesus Christ, that is, by the Head and his members.\n\u201cFrom this it follows that every liturgical celebration, because it is an action of Christ the priest and of his Body the Church, is a sacred action, surpassing all others\u201d (Constitution on the Sacred Liturgy, 7).\nHe is also the Patron Saint of Europe. His prayers are needed indeed!\nYou can give his Rule (Regula Benedicti) a read here.\nHis Wikipedia insert is here.\nAnd the Sevenoaks Ordinariate has a nice post out on him here today (where I got the above depiction). Some great pics up there too, including this one of his tomb at Montecassino:\nCar Knocks Over Two Tour de France Cyclists\nI saw this yesterday as I while visiting my folks: The car swerved to avoid a tree and took out two contestants:\nFrom Canada\u2019s National Post\u2026\nSpaniard Juan Antonio Flecha crashed to the ground while Dutchman Johnny Hoogerland went flying into a barbed-wire fence.\n\u201cHe was lying in the barbed wire, completely in it, in the barbs, his pants were completely off, he was completely naked,\u201d said Michale Cornelisse, the sports director of Hoogerland\u2019s Vacansoleil team after rescuing his rider from a ditch.\n\u201cI just saw him flying through the air. He has deep cuts in his legs, he was going at 60 kph, it was unbelievable.\u201d\nFlecha was treated on his bike for an injured elbow while Hoogerland, with his legs bloodied, crossed the line 17 minutes after the stage winner\u2026\nNot cool. But I must say, I take my hat off to Johnny Hoogerland, who carried on despite the pain. What guts and determination!",

        "raw_content": "Mt.Wedge\nDigging sticks being used in Karrinyara, Mt.Wedge.\nA Warlpiri artist from Papunya, Daniel was born circa 1935. The sister of artist Don Tjungurrayi, who she lived with for some time at Mt Doreen near Yuendumu, she is a respected elder with great cultural knowledge and also a well-respected dancer who danced for Prince Charles when he visited Alice Springs in 2005. She lived at Papunya (the birthplace of the desert art movement) and is now based in Alice Springs, where she works through the Many Hands Art Centre, a centre for artists from diverse language groups in Alice Springs, and in particular the Hermannsburg School of water colour painters.\nShe is represented in the Art Gallery of New South Wales, whose Australian Art Department have written of her: \u201cHer use of assured brushstrokes, bold colour and line infill rather than the more commonly used dotted infill gives her works a sense of movement and rhythm enlivening the composition. Daniel's gestural and energetic works are quite different from the work currently being produced by other Warlpiri artists and in their spontaneity hold similarities to the early works produced by the female artists of Papunya Tula in the 1990s.\u201d (http://about.nsw.gov.au/collections/doc/karrinyarra-mt-wedge/)\nKarrinyarra, Mt.Wedge: The ceremonial dancing women feature strongly in Emma\u2019s painting. She uses the brush with the long flowing brushstrokes the way the women do when they paint their bodies. Emma loves colour and this painting shows how she loves to use it.\nMany Hands Art Centre",

        "raw_content": "Fiji Gloaming\nIn the course of my article about the Plantation Vintage Edition Fiji 2009, I had had already mentioned some thoughts about various cocktails that came to my mind during the tasting of this particularly beautiful rum. Today\u2019s drink is simply a result of those thoughts and they have really let to an astounding result. A summery purist cocktail, so to say \u2013 basically exactly the right thing to have during the current heatwave (albeit it is more suitable for the evening hours).\nThe drink basically is a variation of the Old Fashioned or specifically the Rum Old Fashioned, but it tries to pick up the fruity ester notes of the Plantation Fiji 2009 and lift them to a new level with exotic fire and spicy depth. I am quite enthusiastic about the result and therefore I don\u2019t want to make many words about it today. Instead I will let the recipe speak for itself. I actually used the Monin passionfruit syrup for the preparation of the cocktail due to the lack of time and opportunity. Of course you can also make your own syrup by hand, but it also works very well with the convenience product (even though, of course, I will always take a stand for self-made products). But enough of the words. I hereby present to you as an accompaniment to a nice and exotic summer evening: the Fiji Gloaming\nRecipe \u201cFiji Gloaming\u201d:\n2 bar spoons passion fruit syrup\n1-2 Dashes Bittermens Hellfire Habanero Shrub (depending on the desired amount of heat)\nPreparation: The drink is built in the glass on ice.

        "raw_content": "Posted on : April 12, 2007 - by gaunilo- No Comment\t91 Views\nCulture Gambling Games\nGambling is considered legal in India. There are actually six legal gambling facilities currently spread out in five cities of India. These include casinos and pari-mutuel. However, only casinos and casino-cruises are considered the legal types of gambling.\nSalcette accommodates the most number of casinos in India with two casino facilities and four slot machines. India\u2019s biggest casino is the Winners Casino and Hacienda de Ora in Altomonte Margao. The casino features 150 slot machines and other video gaming machines.\nIndia\u2019s popular gambling game is the Teen Pathi or three cards similar to the Three Card Brag of Great Britain. Also known as flush, this card game uses a 52-card pack and can be played by four to seven players. The player with the best three card hand wins (three aces are the best). Players usually place a minimum bet in a pot and once all players have been dealt three cards, they bet on who has the best hand. They can look first at their hand or what is called \u201cplaying seen\u201d or leave their cards face down termed \u201cplaying blind.\u201d\nThe traditional Ganjifa cards, meanwhile, are used in the gambling game Naqsh which can also be played with the standard cards. Ganjifa is a trick-making game.\nIndia\u2019s other card games include Twenty-nine played by using a 32 card pack, Twenty-eight and Fifty-six, Sip and its own version of Rummy. Four players are usually involved in 29 in fixed partnerships. The aim is to win tricks containing valuable cards. Cards are assigned certain points \u2013 Jacks have 3 points each, nines have 2 points, aces and tens have one point each.\nPoker is also a famous gambling game in India. In fact, the Asian Poker Classic (APC) will be held in Goa, India this year, the first professional poker tournament to take place in the country with a $1 million grand prize at stake.\nBetting on horses is also a popular form in gambling in India especially during the Diwali (New Year) festivities. The Diwali festival is a famous time for gambling in India. It is believed that the goddess Parvati played dice with her husband Lord Shiva at Diwali and had a great time. She then declared that all those who engaged in gambling on Diwali night will have a prosperous year.\nIndians love to bet on the cricket game as well although it is actually illegal. Some $1.5 billion was reportedly wagered on one match alone during the last ICC Cricket World Cup. Being illegal, the bets are normally made by word of mouth and are based on trust. The bets are listed on a notebook of a bookie and money only changes hands after the match. The notebook is then destroyed.\nCooldine an unlikely Hennessy Gold Cup runner\nDo You Have A Gambling List?\nNFL: Broncos bid farewell to Williams",

The album is inspired in large part by a trip to Jamaica that Lianne took with her mother, who is Jamaican. While there, Lianne felt a new connection to her heritage, which lead to the title of the album and inspired the song \u201cGreen and Gold\u201d.\nCompared to her first album, 2012\u2019s Is Your Love Big Enough, Blood is a fuller, more diverse album from a musical standpoint thanks to the number of producer Lianne met and worked with. The more acoustic sounds of Is Your Love Big Enough have been swapped for the funky bass line\u2019s of \u201cTokyo\u201d and the electric riffs of \u201cNever Get Enough\u201d\n\u201cBlood\u201d Q&A\nArt Direction Mike Lythgoe, Richard Welland & Lianne La Havas\nPhotography John Paul Pietrus\nProducers Al Shux, Aqualung, Di Genius & 4 more\nWriters Aqualung, Di Genius, Howard Lawrence & 6 more\nAssistant Engineer Joe Hartwell Jones\nBass Dave Okumu\nBells Paul Epworth\nMore Lianne La Havas albums\nBlood Solo - EP\nShow all albums by Lianne La Havas",

The majority of students stay on to complete their South Australian Certificate of Education (SACE).\nSchool education is the responsibility of the South Australian government, but the public and private education systems are funded jointly by it and the Commonwealth Government.\nThe South Australian Government provides, to schools on a per student basis, 89 percent of the total Government funding while the Commonwealth contributes 11 percent. Since the early 1970s it has been an ongoing controversy that 68 percent of Commonwealth funding (increasing to 75% by 2008) goes to private schools that are attended by 32% of the states students.\nPrivate schools often refute this by saying that they receive less State Government funding than public schools and in 2004 the main private school funding came from the Australian government, not the state government.\nTertiary Education In South Australia\nAt time of typing there are three public and three private universities in South Australia.\nThe three public universities are The University of Adelaide (established 1874), The Flinders University of South Australia (est. 1966), and The University of South Australia (est. 1991).\nThe three private universities are Carnegie Mellon University \u2013 Australia (est. 2006), University College London\u2019s School of Energy and Resources (Australia), and Cranfield University.\nAll six have their main campus in the Adelaide metropolitan area: Adelaide and UniSA on North Terrace in the city; CMU, UCL and Cranfield are co-located on Victoria Square in the city, and Flinders at Bedford Park.\nPublic Universities In South Australia\nThe public universities also have other campuses in the metropolitan area, around the state, inter-state, and overseas.\nMetropolitan campuses include:\nAdelaide:The Waite at Urrbrae; Research Park at Thebarton; and The National Wine Centre in the Adelaide Park Lands.\nUniSA: Magill Campus (Magill); Mawson Lakes Campus (Mawson Lakes); and Parafield (Parafield).\nRural and regional campuses include:\nFlinders: The Flinders University Rural Clinical Schools at Mount Gambier, Goolwa and Renmark; and The Lincoln Marine Science Centre at Port Lincoln. Adelaide: Roseworthy Campus near Roseworthy. UniSA: Campuses at Mount Gambier and Whyalla.\nInterstate campuses include:\nFlinders:The university maintains a number of external teaching south-west Victoria and the Northern Territory.\nOverseas campuses include:\nAdelaide: Singapore Campus.\nPrivate universities In South Australia\nCarnegie Mellon University\u2019s Heinz College Australia and ETC-Australia (Entertainment Technology Center \u2013 Australia Global Initiative) (sic \u2013 American spelling) both have campuses in Adelaide. The Heinz College, in Victoria Square, was established in 2006, and is the first American university to open a campus in Australia. ETC-Australia is located on Light Square.\nCMU-Australia is co-located with the University College London\u2019s School of Energy and Resources (Australia), and world-class research and policy institutes, including Cranfield University (UK), partner the Torrens Resilience Institute and The Australian Centre for Social Innovation.\nTAFE Education in South Australia\nTertiary vocational education is provided by TAFE South Australia colleges throughout the state\nPrevious article Education in the Northern Territory (NT)\nNext article Australian Dollar \u2013 Is it time to buy and sell?\nAustralia\u2019s Mining Boom Great News For UK Workers\nMore From: Education in Australia\nEducation in Tasmania\nEducation in Victoria Australia\nby Mark April 4, 2012, 6:46 am\nAustralian Dollar \u2013 Is it time to buy and sell?",

        "raw_content": "Minnesota universities bucking trend on foreign student enrollment article\nA recent star tribune article about Minnesota universities exception to decline in foreign student enrollment, talks about how universities like St. Thomas and University of Minnesota are defying trends of drop in international admissions:\n\"Nationally, the number of new foreign college students dropped by 7 percent this fall, according to a November report by the Institute of International Education. Critics say it\u2019s evidence that the Trump administration\u2019s travel bans and anti-immigrant rhetoric are scaring away potential students.\nSo far, Minnesota appears to be bucking the trend. This fall, the U welcomed 6,060 foreign students from more than 100 countries to the Twin Cities campus \u2014 almost the same as last year \u2014 while the number of new international freshmen crept up by 1 percent.\nThe story was much the same at the University of St. Thomas in St. Paul, another magnet for international students. It reported a fall enrollment of 574 students from other countries, a five-year high.\"\nFor the complete article visit here\nCrossposted from Star Tribune, Dec 4th 2017, http://www.startribune.com/minnesota-universities-exception-to-decline-in-foreign-student-enrollment/461736133/",

        "raw_content": "Nearly three years ago we surprised everyone with the news that PwC was rebranding itself. It was big news for awhile and not everyone liked the new look, but just like a website, eventually people get tired of bitching about the changes and they move on. Shortly thereafter, we highlighted an obscure report from Marketing Week in the UK that said EY would be the next Big 4 firm to \"develop a new brand.\"\nWe kinda forgot all about that until a few weeks ago when we started receiving several tips about EY 2020, a new strategy initiative thingee. Most of the tips centered around the firm opting to join the letters-only club. Here's how one tipster described it:\nNew branding is coming at the beginning of the new financial year (July 1). It's aimed at unifying the brand, bringing together all the different looks (EY, E&Y, Ernst & Young, all the various visual flair and color differences) into one unified look. Heard rumors of a lot more dark colors (more of the black and grey) with accents of yellow as highlight, all around one EY brand.\nWe haven't seen any art yet, but a tipster tells us, \"word is the EY rebrand is barely a change. [The] beam's here to stay.\"\nAfter watching the reaction to PwC's new look, I'm sure the firm's decision to just go by \"EY\" will be the most drastic change.\nAnyway, as the EY marketing team will probably tell you, the visual stuff is really just one part of it. It took us a while, but we managed to obtain some internal documents, and it's clear that the firm wants its people to think that this is WAY more than just a name change.\nExhibit A: Here's part of a message from the firm's internal web site that discusses the background with interjections by me:\nHow and why we arrived at Vision 2020\nWe launched Vision 2020 for two reasons. First, the world, the business environment and our clients' needs are changing at a remarkable speed. If we want to continue to be relevant, we need to change. But it's not just about keeping pace with change, it's about keeping ahead of the curve.\nAccounting firms\u2026resisting change? Get out of town.\nSecond is the plain fact that we've not been growing as fast as our competitors. This is something that we must address. Some of this was due to the a divergence in strategy, and the fact that our competitors have been more aggressive in making acquisitions. Some of it was compounded by our not focusing enough on fast-growing markets. But some of it was because of our internal focus. We were looking on the inside when the action was on the outside.\nToo much navel-gazing! That's an interesting confession. That may be worth a future discussion.\nBut okay, let me just clarify something here for those who haven't been paying attention \u2014 EY is referring to PwC and Deloitte here. According to Big4.com's most recent analysis, EY had declining revenues in two consecutive years \u2014 2009 and 2010; the only Big 4 firm to experience this kind of contraction. They've managed to rebound in 2011 and 2012, but that allowed PwC and Deloitte to distance themselves from EY and KPMG. KPMG stumbled last year while EY jumped ahead and now it seems that the House of Weinberger is ready to refocus on catching the other two. KPMG will be the fourth pony in this race for the foreseeable future.\nWhat about those acquisitions? Well, it's true that PwC and Deloitte have been shopping sprees for several years, but we're now seeing EY make some moves, most notably with global acquistions in Canada, the U.S., and Germany so far this year.\nBack to the communique:\nTo be clear, we got a lot right. We made great strides in globalization, we developed a great brand in the entrepreneurial space and our investments in emerging markets are paying off.\nIt was with this in mind that we thought about what EY's role was going to be going forward and designed a comprehensive and very inclusive strategy review process and the output has been incredibly valuable.\nThrough it, we consulted with a lot of people and experts \u2014 outside economists, our clients, our partners and our people. We established a Strategy Discussion Group consisting of approximately 30 partners. Their mandate was to explore the topics identified by the Global Practice Group (GPG) and Global Advisory Council (GAC) and to develop initial proposals for consideration. We met several times with the Global and Area Executives. And throughout the whole process, we talked to around 3,000 partners across the world through Area partner webcasts, a strategy refresh microsite and various partners meetings.\nWe have undergone a thorough review process every step of the way. We actively sought out different opinions from partners with different roles and perspectives across the entire organization.\nWhatever, you get the idea.\nBut how about something really interesting? Here's the document with something a little more specific:\nObviously there's a lot of corporate messaging in there, although stating \"We will be #1 or #2 in market share in our chosen services\" and the mention of the $50 billion in revenue by 2020 is eye-catching.\nYeah, what about that $50 billion? EY's revenue for its most recent fiscal year was $24.4 billion. That means they plan to more than double that number in seven years. So, if I run some quick arithmetic, that means that EY would have to increase its revenue every year by an amount that is slightly less than Grant Thornton's global revenues.\nSeems like an ambitious goal, doesn't it? One of our sources at EY thought so and told us there are a few key things that would have to happen for the firm to come even remotely close to achieving it:\n1) A rapidly expanding advisory business\n2) More acquisitions and\n3) A lot more Partners, Principals, and Executive Directors.\nI'll touch on the advisory bit in a sec, but first, as we noted above, EY's effort to get busy on number 2 is picking up. This new strategy is nice for EY because now that people know they're an active and eager suitor, some boutiques may jump because they never got a good feeling from PwC or Deloitte. It's also significant because, as the Big4.com analysis states, \"Growth in all of service lines was almost entirely organic, with acquisitions accounting for less than one half of one percentage point.\"\nEY's growth may just get a shot in the arm from a more aggressive acquisitions strategy.\nSecond, last week we discussed EY's effort to loudly announce their new PPEDs. What better way to attract new talent for your rapidly expanding business than to tell everyone who will listen about all the smart new people you've hired. I don't expect this strategy to change at all. In fact, we may see EY get more aggressive here, also.\nLast, the expansion of the advisory business is the firm's biggest risk area, but it carries huge rewards.\nMore than ever, these firms are going to embrace the opportunity to chase non-audit services that will make the tenet of independence even more of a fantasy than it ever was. Among the Big 4, EY's advisory revenue as a percentage of its total is third largest, which means there is room to pursue non-audit services more aggressively.\nSo naturally this is going to make independence a bigger issue, again.\nAs the advisory business expands, the more potential there will be for conflicts with the firm's audit clients. Since EY and the rest of the Big 4 want to be known as trusted business advisors rather than simply auditors or tax preparers, the advisory business gravy train will continue to be a priority and circumventing independence will become an ongoing exercise. We've already seen EY cross the line in this area with the revelation that it was lobbying on behalf of audit clients, so it stands to reason they can make arguments in other cases for the sake of expanding business lines that expand their influence can command larger fees while the audit business gets pushed into the background.\nReally, the timing of all this is perfect for EY because all the firms are doing it and they don't give a damn if people think they're less independent. The advisory businesses have momentum and since independence is in the eye of the beholder, it's easy for any firm to say, \"That's just, like, your opinion, man.\"\nStill, it's a rare case when an expansive, opaque strategy with few measurable goals goes according to plan. As one source remarked to us, \"I don't even think the marketing people understand what we're doing aside from going by 'EY' from now on.\" I dunno; maybe that's the idea.\nAn EY spokesperson had not responded to our request for comment at press time.\nIn the end, the firm is eager to establish itself as an institution that can be ahead of the curve on change, but what seems to be missing in their confident message is the element of unpredictability. Watching the business developments in Asia and Africa is one thing \u2014 I'm sure EY can do that fine. It's having a front row seat to the largest bankruptcy in U.S. history and not speaking up that have the tendency to throw things off the rails.\nTags: Advisory, Ernst & Young, EY, Independence, Rebranding",

JEFF BOSS HAS OVER 500 PEOPLE ON DVD ADMITTING THE NSA GAVE THEM $20,000 TO KEEP QUIET AFTER THEY RECEIVED JEFF\u2019S CAMPAIGN LITERATURE ABOUT THE NSA ARRANGING THE 911 ATTACKS. JEFF HAS OVER 40 AFFIDAVITS FROM PEOPLE SAYING THEY WERE GIVEN $20,000 FROM THE NSA TO KEEP QUIET AND WERE THREATENED WITH HARM IF THEY TOLD ANYONE, THAT THE NSA DID THE 911 ATTACKS.

She was talking about helping Ramsi Yousef (responsible for the 93 bombing at the World Trade Center) call his uncle Khalid Sheikh Mohammed(considered the mastermind of the 911 attack) from the NSA secret prison in Alexandria, VA and she was talking about flying planes into buildings. I never heard the dates or the names of the buildings and I never thought anything would ever happen. But on September 10, 2001 I was told to go the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001. My first day in a new office, and I was yelled at by 4 supervisors not to be late. I was late. Thank G-d. The NSA wanted the oil in Iraq, which has the second largest oil reserve in the world. Certain powerful people in the NSA told me that the electronic voting machines can be hacked into and the vote changed within seconds. If we do not have our vote, then we are not a democracy. By creating a culture of Fear, the NSA has helped to pass the Patriot Act, which trashes our Constitution. Now the NSA doesn\u2019t need a warrant to listen to every ones phone calls & emails or go into their homes. The NSA is now listening to every ones phones calls and e mails using an enormous computer. The NSA can spy on Wall Street and make unlimited money if the NSA wants to. Our Civil liberties, Constitution, and Democracy are rapidly disappearing. I will not let them hijack my country.\nThe NSA controls the media and prevents Jeff Boss\u2019s message from being heard. Don\u2019t you think a person who was on the ballot for President of the United States & U.S. Senate in New Jersey, and Governor of New Jersey on the Democratic Primary, State Senate , and also on the ballot for Congress on the Democratic Primary, and now running for President on the Independent Party November 6, 2012 election, and talked about the NSA arranging the 911 attack would be known? The Star Ledger, Record, Jersey Journal, and Asbury Park Paper refused to run my paid for political ads.\nI have videos of 500 people on DVD admitting on tape that the NSA gave them $20,000 to keep quiet after they received my campaign literature and threatened to kill them if they told anyone that the NSA did the 911 attacks. I have over 40 affidavits from people saying the same thing. I even have Al Gore admitting that the NSA did the 911 attacks on DVD. Every time I post the videos, they are edited out, even on You Tube. Every time I am on TV or Radio and talk about the 911 attack or show videos they are edited out.",

        "title": "John McCain and respect",
        "raw_content": "John McCain and respect\nEveryone is always careful to precede any criticism of McCain by saying they respect him. This has always bothered me, and I just recently figured out why.\nLiberals and conservatives alike have generally given John McCain a special courtesy, no matter how much they might disagree with him or dislike him as a person. Any time someone on television or in media is about to talk about him being an out-of-touch war-mongering whack-job with an anger-management problem, they first make a point of saying, \u201cOf course I respect his service to our country.\u201d\nSometimes these statements seem almost comical, especially when what follows the declaration of respect is vitriolic and insulting. But even so, it sets a tone for any discourse concerning McCain: he may be a cranky old coot now, but we respect this thing that he went through. We respect the fact that he is the type of person who served our country.\nI think people are right to do this. John McCain went through a lot as a soldier and as a prisoner of war. He deserves our utmost respect.\nNonetheless, hearing this all of the time bothered me. I never understood why, until now.\nI\u2019ve been listening to the current news, and McCain\u2019s Grumpy Old Man commentary on issues surrounding Benghazi and Petraeus and all of the military mess that is going on right now. I\u2019ve been hearing every liberal commentator who severely disagrees with McCain on almost every issue talk about how much they disagree with him. And, of course, I\u2019ve been hearing every one of them precede their criticism with a declaration of respect for McCain.\n\u201cOf course I have deep respect for John McCain, but\u2026.\u201d\nThat is when it hit me, the realization of why this bothers me:\nOf course McCain deserves this\u2026 but so does everyone else.\nEvery single human being that you participate in a debate with, every single interlocutor you engage, deserves some respect from you. For being a human being. For daring to have a conversation. For engaging at all.\nIn a world where debates so easily degenerate into personal attacks and dismissals, wouldn\u2019t it be wonderful if every time you disagreed with someone, you began your statement with, \u201cOf course I have a deep respect for you, but\u2026\u201d\nI know some of you reading this are having the snarky thought: \u201cOh, sure, but what if I don\u2019t have deep respect for the person?\u201d\nStop being a child! Everyone deserves some respect, and if you don\u2019t think so then you have no place having a debate at all. If you really don\u2019t respect a person, then you shouldn\u2019t be engaging them. Every human being deserves respect\u2013even if you don\u2019t respect some (or even most) of the things that they think and say.\nThis is why it bothers me when I hear people declare their \u201cdeep respect\u201d for John McCain.\nNot because I think they shouldn\u2019t do it; but rather, because I don\u2019t see why they don\u2019t do it for everyone they disagree with.\n< everyone is always wrong\n\u201cTeen bodybuilding scare\u201d is misleading and wrong >",

        "raw_content": "Ministers adopt \u2018Abuja declaration\u2019 for African Habitat III agenda\nBy Chinedum\nIn the Abuja declaration, the delegates are seeking development of smart cities with improved urban systems for improved functionality, efficiency and effective delivery of urban basic services and infrastructure; positioning urbanisation and human settlements as a driver of competitiveness through specialization and connected urban systems at the regional level\nFRESH impetus was added last week to the drive to articulate Africa\u2019s vision for sustainable urban and human settlements development in the New Urban Agenda, after three days of deliberations and fine-tuning by the delegates at the United Nations Conference on Housing and Sustainable Urban Development (Habitat III) Africa Regional Meeting in Abuja.\nIn the meeting attended by the continent\u2019s National Government officials as well as wide range of stakeholders, including local and regional authorities, intergovernmental organizations, United Nations agencies, professionals and academia, private sector, civil society, women, children and youth; the delegates adopted the Abuja Declaration on Habitat III that spelt out Africa\u2019s priorities for the Quito (Ecuador) in October 2016.\nDelegates agreed to the text read by Nigeria\u2019s Minister of Power, Works & Housing and Chair of the Preparatory Board for the Preparation of the Abuja Declaration, Mr Babatunde Fashola, which stated that the opportunities and challenges of urbanization and human settlements have increased in scope and complexity, and thus the need to harness the full potential of the existing institutional and policy frameworks as transformative instruments for economic growth and poverty reduction.\nThe continent\u2019s experts also noted the emerging challenge of forced urbanization due to, among others, conflicts, terrorism and natural disasters, which has forced populations to move en masse from rural areas to urban centers and vice versa, and across borders, stretching existing infrastructure resulting in increased insecurity and poverty which need to be addressed in a comprehensive manner.\nThey, therefore, recommended as follows: ONE: Harnessing the potential of urbanization to accelerate structural transformation for inclusive and sustainable growth through the allocation of adequate financial resources to promote sustainable urbanization and human settlements development to drive structural transformation for the benefit of all citizens.\nPromoting inclusive economic growth that translates to full employment and decent jobs as well as improved living standards for all.\nStrengthening and creating systems of well-connected cities and human settlements at the national and regional levels as nodes of growth based on their competitive advantages; integrating urbanization into national development planning as a cross cutting factor driving national growth and transformation.\nTWO: Enhancing efforts to advance a global partnership to facilitate the implementation of the new global urban and human settlements agenda by mobilizing financial resources from both state and non-state actors; enhancing multi-stakeholder engagement for the effective implementation of the New Urban Agenda for cities and human settlements agenda in Africa, including the private sector as well as capacity building, skills and technology transfer for sustainable urban and human settlements planning and management.\nTHREE: Enhancing the contribution of urban and human settlements development to continental integration by taking advantage of urban corridors at the regional level for related infrastructural and other initiatives, cross regional interaction and movement of people; orienting regional and interregional infrastructure, facilities and initiatives to promote cross boundary interaction and leverage urban and human settlements assets.\nDeveloping smart cities with improved urban systems for improved functionality, efficiency and effective delivery of urban basic services and infrastructure; positioning urbanization and human settlements as a driver of competitiveness through specialization and connected urban systems at the regional level, namely infrastructure, economy and institutions.\nFOUR: Strengthening institutions and systems for promoting transformative change in human settlements including through enhancing capacities for urban planning, governance and management, promoting effective decentralized urban management by empowering cities and local governments, technically and financially, to deliver adequate shelter and sustainable human settlements.\nFIVE: Strengthening UN-Habitat to make it politically visible, as the key player in mobilizing all relevant actors, State and non-State in implementing the New Urban Agenda as the outcome of Habitat III as well as the urban and human settlements component of the 2030 agenda for sustainable development, and reiterate the importance of the Nairobi Headquarters location of UN-Habitat by establishing universal membership at its Governing Council to give it more authority and legitimacy in decision-making.",

        "title": "A Love Story at a Mental Hospital: We Weren\u2019t Falling in Love, We Were Falling in Life \u2013 HALFWAY2HANNAH",
        "raw_content": "Posted on April 4, 2016 September 4, 2018 by Hannah Blum\nThe day I arrived at the mental hospital, the last thing on my mind was the status of single guys at the facility. I don\u2019t think these types of places have a location status on Bumble. However, it\u2019s in the places unknown and unfamiliar to us that we meet some of the most important people along our journey. I did meet a guy, and his name is Jared.\nJared and I didn\u2019t fall in love with each other. We fell in understanding with one another; two souls destined to meet, to help one another find peace in the midst of chaos. At my darkest, he reached for hope and built a key from the light he found within me; a key that would unlock the chains of stigma and finally set me free. This is not a love story; this is a life story about love.\nWhen I entered the mental hospital I was a 20-year-old girl who was at the end of the road; no light, no future, just static and darkness. Jared was an athlete who struggled with depression. He had a rough childhood and attempted to commit suicide multiple times. His family and friends abandoned him as if he were a broken object. I will never forget when his mother came to eat breakfast with him. Out of shame, she stormed out of the cafeteria leaving him utterly alone at the table. This type of behavior was familiar to him, but it wasn\u2019t familiar to me. I thought I knew what it was like to feel alone in this world until I met Jared.\nI took it upon myself to befriend him, trying to coax him out of his shell. He opened up to me, and for a 19-year-old he had more life experience than most people in their late forties and fifties. Every night, at our mandatory bedtime we would catch each other looking across the hall. The other girls were in love with him. I would find them crawling across the floor trying to throw him notes. We acted like children who believed laughter was the only way we would survive. We had fun, but most importantly we understood one another. Jared and I lived very different lives, yet we ended up in the same place at the same time.\nIt was during a group therapy session where I was the main subject that things began to change. I broke down revealing my shame and self-hate. I admitted my fears and the fact that I was completely lost. Jared\u2019s face was filled with anger, shock and sadness. From that day on, in spite of his pain, he was relentless about building me up. He worked endlessly to clear the fog that prevented me from finding my truth. He was tough on me. It was like I was his vessel into the light.\nThe day I was released, I was filled with mixed emotions; fear, sadness, excitement, happiness, and gratitude. Jared came to my door to say goodbye. I was desperate to keep in touch, but he hesitated when I asked for his number. He grabbed a piece of paper, jotted down his number quickly and folded it back up. Once he was released I figured we could meet again. I could help him start the process of getting a GED and potentially work towards going to College. In my mind, we could make our dreams come true, but I was naive to the reality of the situation. When I began speaking with excitement about his future, he placed his hand in my hand. Without one word exchanged I knew what he was silently saying to me. We were not going to see each other again, and Jared would walk back into a society that set him up for failure. Through his eyes, and in his touch, I felt the reality of stigma.\nWhen someone crashes into you and says the words that have been missing from your life and points out the way your shattered pieces sparkle, it removes the chains that have been holding you back from truly living. Jared did this for me, and I am forever grateful to him.\nIf you are wondering what happened after the hospital, I decided to reach out to Jared a couple months after being released. I searched for his number on the paper that the hospital staff had collected and misplaced. Luckily I found it, but inside the paper was a note, not a number.\nI hope I am around long enough to see how you shine in this world.\nLittle did we know, we weren\u2019t falling in love, we were falling in life. Jared, this story is for you.\nTagged with:BiPolar, Life, LOVE, Mental Health, Mental Illness, positive, Relationships\nPrevious Post6 Must Watch Ted Talks About Mental Health\nNext PostRemoving The Mask and Revealing Your Mental Illness\nYour story was very moving.

He appears at the gates of the cemetery along with his dog.\nTrembling in terror, the caretaker holds a lantern in one hand and a shovel in the other hand. His dog cowers at his feet, whimpering in fear as part of cowering with his owner. The caretaker wears a brown jacket, a green scarf, and a hat.\nHe and his dog are the some of the only \"living\" characters in the attraction.\nAt Liberty Square's Haunted Mansion there is a crate addressed to him which reveals his name is Silas Crump.\nIn both Holiday versions of the attraction, the Caretaker and his dog are replaced with animatronics of Jack Skellington, as \"Sandy Claws\" and his ghost dog, Zero.\nThe Caretaker does not appear in Phantom Manor, but is somewhat replaced by the Phantom and a demon dog.\nHorace takes tea with his not-so-departed wife.\nIn the SLG comics, he is known as Horace Fusslebottom, working as a groundskeeper for the cemetery behind Gracey Manor. Both he and his dog have a cowardly streak, but Horace has a good reason for staying: as revealed in \"The Groundskeeper's Secret\" by the Singing Busts (in song, of course), Horace traverses the graveyard nightly so he can take his dinner breaks and drink tea with the ghost of his wife, who is buried there.\nIn a possible continuity error, he is referred to as \"Dick\" in \"The Final Interview;\" this is likely in reference to Dick O'Dell, a fan-name for the character from the castmember-created Ghost Gallery.\nHe briefly appears in the Disney Kingdoms Haunted Mansion storyline where he meets the protagonist Danny and is almost immediately scared off by the Mansion's ghost.\nThe Caretaker and his dog as ghosts in the 2003 movie\nThe Caretaker and his dog make an appearance in the 2003 film adaption as ghost versions of themselves and can be seen populating the cemetery along with many other ghosts. An early version of the script had him as a supporting character with Don Knotts playing the part. However, Knotts dropped out before filming and the character was cut but retained as a cameo.\nThe Caretaker also appears in the 2003 video game but his dog is omitted. The character appears as a disgruntled ghost in the Winter Garden who keeps complaining that no one is around to pay for his work. The game's player character and main protagonist, Zeke Halloway, is partially inspired by the Caretaker.\nHe and his dog are the only living inhabitants of the Haunted Mansion\nThe name Silas Crump is a reference to imagineer Rolly Crump who worked on the Mansion and the Museum of the Weird.\nOn a few occasions he appeared for Meet'n'Greets where he refers to his dog as \"Bones\".\nIn the Liberty Square Mansion he and is dog are referenced in the front queue by the Emergency Exit where the footprints of both he and his dog are engraved in the pavement right by a gate leading to the staircase which goes around the mansion where a small metal dog door is found in the exit gate.\nIn the New Orleans Square and Liberty Square Haunted Mansion the caretaker is portrayed as a shaven older man with long white hair but in the Tokyo Mansion he is much younger having brown hair along with sideburns and a beard.\nIn the cast-member created Ghost Gallery, the Caretaker is reimagined as being named Dick O' Dell. This caretaker was born in 1931 to a gravedigger and a Romani woman who both died in a rollercoaster accident when he was a boy. Dick then worked at said carnival until it 1971 when it went broke and Dick subsequently moved to Florida in order to work at Walt Disney World. Dick was given the job of being caretaker of the Haunted Mansion in Liberty Square and he was given his own room in the mansion to call his own.\nRetrieved from \"https://hauntedmansion.fandom.com/wiki/Caretaker?oldid=11317\"",

        "title": "INTERVIEW: \u2018HOW YOUR MIND CAN HEAL YOUR BODY\u2019 AUTHOR DAVID R. HAMILTON | Healing Histamine",
        "raw_content": "INTERVIEW: \u2018HOW YOUR MIND CAN HEAL YOUR BODY\u2019 AUTHOR DAVID R. HAMILTON\nI recently blogged about my success in stopping my mast cell mediated histamine itch (see bottom of post) through a visualisation I came up with after reading Hay House bestselling author and Huffington Post contributor David R. Hamilton\u2019s \u2018How Your Mind Can Heal Your Body\u2018. He was kind enough to answer some questions about stress and histamine as he flitted between workshops in various countries.\nAfter completing a PhD in organic chemistry, David Hamilton spent 4 years in the pharmaceutical industry developing drugs for cardiovascular disease and cancer. Now, author of 7 books published by Hay House, he travels the world giving talks and leading workshops that people to understand the link between their minds, their health, and their life.\nThe Chef \u2013 Now without discounting that people are suffering from a very real condition that is not psychosomatic \u2013 as most of us who have been through the psychiatric sausage factory approach to healing have been told \u2013 is it possible that stress is a contributing factor in the destabilisation of mast cells or inflammatory changes?\nHamilton \u2013 Yes, I would say so. Exactly how it works, I\u2019m not sure has been nailed yet, but I\u2019d hazard a guess that stress is a contributory factor. Stress can play a negative role in almost all serious diseases. Inflammation also plays a negative role in disease and a lot of inflammation is linked with stress. For example, the main protagonists in the genesis of cardiovascular disease are inflammation and free radicals. Stress raises levels of both. So we know that stress impacts inflammation.\nThe Chef \u2013 In your opinion, how do our expectations of the outcome of eating a certain food, applying a perceived toxic substance (perfume/bath product) to the skin, or the fear of anaphylaxis affect us \u2013 and can something as deadly as the most extreme allergic reaction (anaphylaxis) be a result of a negative thought chain/hyper stimulation of the amygdala? Studies have shown mast cell degranulation/histamine release/IgE response can be induced in a Pavlovian manner \u2013 by exposure to an allergen under certain conditions (lighting/music/smell). The reaction can then be triggered by staging the non-allergenic trigger of lighting/music/smell in the absence of the allergen.\nHamilton \u2013 This is an area I have always found fascinating. Yes, our expectations definitely have an effect. It\u2019s called the \u2018nocebo\u2019 effect, which is the opposite of the placebo effect. Where the placebo effect can heal, the nocebo effect can harm. Some people can have allergic reactions out of fear or expectation, as some research has shown. I actually know of someone who did have a severe allergic reaction that was brought about by extreme fear, anxiety, and then expectation once he noticed symptoms begin, which would involve hyper stimulation of the amygdala. With him, it also resulted in a tipping point, presumably by upsetting brain chemistry, that resulted in 2 years of severe depression (depersonalization).\nThe positive side of all this is that if fear, anxiety, negative expectation can have such a harmful effect, then positivity, calmness, and positive expectation can have a positive effect. Inflammation, for instance, has been shown to reduce through a \u2018loving kindness meditation\u2019, which involves the cultivation of kindness and compassion. And compassion has also been linked with activity of the vagus nerve, which is the primary brake on inflammation, so here we can see a link between the cultivation of compassion and the reduction of inflammation via vagus nerve stimulation. The marker used in that particular study was Interleukin-6, but I\u2019d hazard a guess that compassion would be impacting many more inflammatory cytokines. On a side-note, electrical stimulation of the vagus nerve has been shown experimentally to result in massive reductions in inflammation. I\u2019m wondering if there\u2019s any scope for researchers applying the technique to mast cell conditions, if it hasn\u2019t already been done, that it. Worth checking out!\nThe Chef \u2013 What impact, if any, could mirroring have on mast cell conditions? ie the expectation that because a fellow sufferer has certain symptoms/reactions, you will have them too. If any, then what can we do about it?\nHamilton \u2013 Interesting question. It is very true that we unconsciously mirror people\u2019s facial expressions and other muscle movements. It\u2019s facilitated by the \u2018Mirror Neuron System\u2019 (MNS) in the brain. This feeds back into the brain so that we actually \u2018catch\u2019 the emotions of other people. It\u2019s called \u2019emotional contagion\u2019. It\u2019s why we feel happy around happy people and anxious around those who are anxious. I\u2019m not sure what effect this would have on mast cell conditions, to be honest. However, in the broader sense, if it\u2019s expectation we\u2019re talking about, seeing someone with symptoms/reactions and developing them too through mirroring, then the resulting expectations could, in theory, bring about allergic reactions in a nocebo effect fashion. Awareness is the key to stopping it. Being aware of your own thoughts, fears, and actions, being aware that you might just be mirroring, gives you a little more control because you realise that the changes are the result of your thinking. Awareness, at this point, lets you control your thinking.\nThe Chef \u2013 Beyond meditation, is there any merit to distraction? What\u2019s the best way not to focus on how ill you feel when literally every inch of your body is in (perceived) distress?\nHamilton \u2013 A great way to distract that I recommend to people in a variety of different situations is \u2018victory dancing\u2019. It\u2019s where you do a silly dance (to the best of your movement ability) that makes you smile and laugh. What\u2019s happening is that instead of brain resources going towards the amygdala they move to the prefrontal cortex and other happy brain centres instead. This generates positive feelings and a greater sense that you can be in control of things. In time, with plenty of \u2018dance\u2019 practice, the brain will rewire and resources will \u2018learn\u2019 to go to \u2018happy\u2019 brain centres instead of towards the amygdala.\nThe Chef \u2013 Let\u2019s say we\u2019ve accepted that stress is a contributing factor, or just that we\u2019re ready to use our mind to heal the body \u2013 where do we start?\nHamilton \u2013 First, find a practice that helps you relax a little. Some people find classical meditation works well, others find it hard to concentrate. I often recommend the \u2018Loving-Kindness\u2019 meditation because it also helps us cultivate relaxed, positive feelings and also neutralises a lot of the stress associated with other people. Basically, it involves cultivating a sense of love, kindness and compassion towards ourselves, loved ones, people who are neutral to us, and then to people who cause, or have caused us, stress or emotional pain. If you Google it you can find more precise instructions.\nAs well as this, people can use visualization techniques. The key here is to create an internal image (you don\u2019t need to be a good visualizer and see in HD. We all imagine in our own ways) of the conditions. Ten people will come up with ten different images so there\u2019s not actually a right or wrong way to do it. It\u2019s an image or set of images that feel true for you, perhaps based on how you feel, intuition, or a description that a medical person has given you. This is your picture of \u2018illness\u2019. Then you convert it in your imagination to a picture of \u2018wellness\u2019. The secret is simply changing from illness into wellness. You can do it in any way you want, using tools, energy, light, just imagining forms changing\u2026.whatever you want, really, so long as you convert illness into wellness. And you do it over and over and over again, like every day, preferably a couple of times a day.\nI highly recommend reading Dr. Hamilton\u2019s book\u2026it confirmed that I do play a part in my illness, but more importantly, in my recovery.",

Bromund is a Senior Research Fellow in The Heritage Foundation\u2019s Margaret Thatcher Center for Freedom. He has written extensively on Interpol for The Heritage Foundation and other outlets and has served as an expert witness in Interpol cases in the U.S. and the United Kingdom. Dr. Bromund is a columnist for Newsday and Forbes. He received his PhD for his thesis on Britain\u2019s first application to the European Economic Community in 1999 from Yale University, where he served for nine years as a lecturer in history and Associate Director of International Security Studies\n***Event Summary***\nThe Henry Jackson Society was delighted to host Dr. Ted R. Bromund on the 25th September to hear his thoughts on Interpol and particularly the increasing abuse of its network by Russia. Dr Bromund is a Senior Research Fellow in The Heritage\u2019s Foundation\u2019s Margaret Thatcher Center for Freedom where he has established himself as an expert on Interpol, writing widely for the Heritage Foundation, Newsday, and Forbes while also working as an expert witness in Interpol cases in the U.S. and the United Kingdom. The talk was hosted by Sophia Gaston, the Director of the Centre for Social and Political Risk at the Henry Jackson Society.\nDr Bromund began by explaining that contrary to the common impression of Interpol as an agency that makes arrests across the world, Interpol is in fact an administrative body that serves as an international bulletin board for police agencies. One of the key founding principles of Interpol is that all 192 member states are treated as equals and all actions of all state taken through Interpol are viewed as having equal legitimacy.\nUnfortunately, this is allowing some states, including Russia, to take advantage of the Interpol for political purposes and to use it to pursue vendettas instead of ordinary criminals. The most common routes of abuse are the Red Notice, which tells all Interpol member states that the requesting nation wishes to extradite an individual, or a \u2018diffusion\u2019, which is a state-to-state communication that can serve the same purposes as Red Notice. These measures restrict travel, lead to arrests and extradition, and often result in exclusion from the international financial system and the closure of bank accounts.\nDr Bromund explained that Russia, and other autocratic nations, are increasingly issuing Red Notices and diffusions against individuals who oppose their regimes. The most high-profile case is Russia\u2019s campaign against Mr Bill Browder, a venture capitalist whose business was taken over by Vladimir Putin, leading eventually to the death of Mr Browder\u2019s lawyer Mr Sergei Magnitsky and a campaign of harassment using Interpol by Russia against Mr Browder. Dr Bromund explained that the process of applying for a Red Notice or diffusion is as simple as filling in an online form and that Interpol does not check the validity of the arrest warrant or its underlying justice, which allows autocratic nations to abuse Interpol with near-impunity. Dr Bromund noted that Mr Browder is hardly the only victim: many individuals with less ability to defend themselves are abused via Interpol .\nDr Bromund went on to set out steps that could realistically be taken. Firstly, while acknowledging that the expulsion of any member nation of Interpol is extremely unlikely, fourteen democracies are responsible for 74% of Interpol\u2019s funding. Dr Bromund suggests this financial leverage should be put to work to change the leadership of Interpol and to encourage Interpol to suspend abusive member nations for the maximum time allowed by Interpol\u2019s rules. Democracies should withhold the data they share with Interpol from abusive nations.\nAs it is impossible for Interpol to review each of the approximately 15,000 Red Notices published yearly for abuse, Dr Bromund emphasised that it is the culture of Interpol and its member states that needs to change. He also emphasised that all of his recommendations were entirely legal under Interpol\u2019s own constitution and within the powers of its Executive Committee and General Assembly. The problem was that the leadership of Interpol, and its democratic members, were too reluctant to use their powers.\nFor example, when Turkey requested 60,000 Red Notices at once after the purported coup attempt in 2016, which would have doubled the number of valid Red Notices in circulation, Interpol refused the request but took no action against Turkey and did not even criticise it. The European vice-chair of Interpol, Dr Bromund noted, is Aleksandr Prokopchuk, who was formally the head of Russia\u2019s National Central Bureau \u2014 which deals with Interpol \u2014 and who is therefore personally responsible for past Russian abuses of the system.\nThis event was an eye-opening perspective on an organization that most people are aware of but which few know much about. We are grateful to Dr Bromund for sharing his expertise and his thoughts on Interpol as well as the wider point he made that Interpol\u2019s problems are emblematic of both the problems with international organisations more broadly and the threat posed by autocratic nations to the liberal international order.\nDr. Theodore R.

        "raw_content": "Barabbas and the Perfect Man\n\u201cThen came Jesus forth, wearing the crown of thorns, and the purple robe. And Pilate saith unto them, Behold the man!\u201d (John 19:5)\nListen to audio https://bibleheraldmagazine.files.wordpress.com/2015/02/2015_03-04_08_barabbas-and-the-perfect-man.mp3\nBehold the man! That\u2019s what Pilate said to the Jews, and in particular to the leaders of Israel, as they petitioned Pilate to put Jesus to death. Behold the man! The chief priests and officers heard these words of Pilate. They saw Jesus before them wearing a purple robe and a crown of thorns. These were put on Him by the Roman soldiers \u2013 not to honor Him but to mock Him.\nJesus stood before the Jews. They watched Him being mocked and beaten by the Roman soldiers. \u201cHail, King of the Jews\u201d the soldiers cried over and over as they hit Him and spit on Him. John records \u201cthey struck him in the face.\u201d (John 19:3 NIV)\nWhat did the Jewish leaders say when they saw this? Were they overcome by compassion for this innocent man? Did they change their minds and realize that Barabbas the murderer should be crucified and Jesus be allowed to go free? Did they listen when Pilate himself said three times that he found no fault in Jesus? Instead of softening their hearts they cried out all the more, \u201cCrucify Him!\u201d The Israelite leaders were adamant that they wanted Barabbas to be set free and that they wanted Jesus to be crucified.\nBarabbas is a person hardly discussed. He is like an actor in this real life drama who has no speaking part, though his presence adds a twist to the scenario. Why did Barabbas have this cameo part in the real life story of the crucifixion of our Lord? Barabbas didn\u2019t really need to be in the story. He was not required to be present for Jesus to give up His life on the cross. But Barabbas was there, and was important enough to be recorded in the scriptures, so perhaps God had some more lessons for us.\n\u201cAnd there was one named Barabbas, which lay bound with them that had made insurrection with him, who had committed murder in the insurrection\u201d (Mark 15:7). What was Barabbas\u2019 crime? There are several theories about this.\nOne theory suggests, because it is found in just a very few Greek manuscripts, that Barabbas\u2019 name was actually Yeshua bar Abba in Aramaic, which means Jesus, Son of the Father. Perhaps, it is purported that the common Jews were really crying out to Pilate to let Jesus go free.\nThis, of course, is not scriptural. This is conjecture based on a very small percentage of the old manuscripts. Even if Barabbas\u2019 name really was Yeshua bar Abba, it does not necessarily follow that the Jews were crying out for the opposite of what our Bibles tell us.\nAnother theory is quoted in Wikipedia. Because this source is so widely followed, it should be examined.\n\u201cHyam Maccoby and some other scholars have averred that Jesus was known as \u2018bar-Abba\u2019, because of his custom of addressing God as \u2018Abba\u2019 in prayer, and referring to God as Abba in his preaching. It follows that when the Jewish crowd clamored before Pontius Pilate to \u2018free Bar Abba\u2019 they could have meant Jesus. \u2018Anti-Semitic elements in the Christian church, the argument goes, altered the narrative to make it appear that the demand was for the freedom of somebody else (a brigand or insurrectionist) named Barabbas.\u2019 This was, the theory goes, part of the tendency to shift the blame for the crucifixion towards the Jews and away from the Romans.\u201d\nPerhaps the Jewish leaders who were bent on getting rid of Jesus and wanted Him to be crucified does not mean that one is Anti-Semitic. To conclude that, \u201cAnti-Semitic elements in the Christian church, changed the narrative to make it appear that the demand was for the freedom\u201d of somebody else, namely Barabbas, without any proof is very hard to accept. Jewish leaders induced many to turn away from Jesus, but this was a necessary part in God\u2019s plan to save the whole world.\nIn light of the behavior of the Jewish leaders leading up to Jesus\u2019 arrest and crucifixion, neither of these two theories seem even remotely plausible. The leaders of Israel had been hostile to Jesus since He started preaching.\nThese bizarre suggestions show that when the Bible gives little information about something or someone, people may generate opinions that can be a long way from the truth.\nIt is easy to conjecture that the early church changed the narrative, and charge them with anti-Semitism. But is it feasible for that motive to stem from Jewish writers? Let us rather consider the testimony as it actually appears in the record, that is, the scriptures.\nThe Name of Barabbas\nAccording to Strong\u2019s Concordance, the name Barabbas means \u201cson of a father.\u201d Jesus, is often called the Son of God, as for example in Mark 1:1, \u201cJesus Christ, the Son of God\u201d (Mark 1:1).\nThere is another who is called the Son of God. \u201cWhich was the son of Enos, which was the son of Seth, which was the son of Adam, which was the son of God.\u201d (Luke 3:38).\nThis seems to be a microcosm of a greater plan. We know from the scriptures that Jesus paid the ransom price for Adam, a perfect life for a perfect life. One \u201cSon of God,\u201d Jesus, paid the price for another \u201cson of God,\u201d Adam (1 Corinthians 15:22). However, in the story of Jesus\u2019 crucifixion, the Son of the Heavenly Father gives His life in place of Barabbas, the \u201cson of a father.\u201d It doesn\u2019t seem likely that Barabbas was chosen at random. God chose him for a good reason. It gives us one more picture of the ransom sacrifice.\nMark 15:7 says, \u201cAnd there was one named Barabbas, which lay bound with them that had made insurrection with him, who had committed murder in the insurrection\u201d (Mark 15:7).\nNotice that Barabbas: (1) was bound or imprisoned; (2) was an insurrectionist; and (3) was a murderer. How do those three things compare to Adam\u2019s experience?\nAdam was initially free \u2013 free to roam the Garden, free to worship God, and free from death. Likewise, Barabbas was as free as he could be under Roman authority. He could roam about the land, he could worship the God of his ancestors, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob; and while doing so, he was free from any death penalty that the Romans might impose on him for breaking their law. But the sentence of death was given to both men for breaking the law.\nBarabbas was an insurrectionist. He rebelled against Rome. Was Adam an insurrectionist? He rebelled against God when he ate the forbidden fruit. Note Pastor Russell\u2019s comment: \u201cHe cast Adam out from the garden of Eden and all its favors; he no longer treated him as his loved creature and friend but as one who had rebelled; he virtually said, you have chosen your own path, now walk in it\u201d (Reprint 1176)\nThe last thing mentioned in Mark 15: 7 was that Barabbas had committed murder. So, of course, the next question is, \u201cDid Adam commit murder?\u201d Let\u2019s examine the text a little closer. It says that Barabbas \u201ccommitted murder in the insurrection.\u201d Did Adam commit murder in his insurrection against God? Clearly, Adam\u2019s insurrection of disobeying led to the death of every one of his progeny.\nContinuing from Reprint 1176: \u201cGod determined to make an example of the sinner and of the natural consequences of sin, and so the penalty of sin went into effect.\u201d Romans 6:23 says, \u201cFor the wages of sin is death.\u201d Adam\u2019s disobedience was responsible for sending all other human beings into sin and death. Adam\u2019s insurrection was directly responsible for causing all other people to die. Not exactly murder but very close. (See Romans 5:12, and 17-19).\nMark15:7says that Barabbas lay bound with them that had made insurrection with him. Adam and Eve together disobeyed God. When they were cast out from the Garden of Eden they were suddenly under the bondage of sin and death. This was much the same as Barabbas and his fellow insurrectionists. Once they were all caught for making insurrection, all of them came under the death penalty by Rome. Literally, they were bound in prison.\nSo we see a correlation between Barabbas and Adam. Jesus took the place of each of them in death. There is no evidence in the Bible that Barabbas asked Jesus to forgive him, nor do we read anywhere that Jesus balked at dying in Barabbas\u2019 stead. We feel that this is a beautiful picture of the ransom. Just as Christ freely gave his perfect life to literally save one sinner, Barabbas, we see on a grander scale that Jesus gave his life for the whole world of sinners \u2013 Christian and otherwise. \u201cFor there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time\u201d (1 Timothy 2:5,6); ( See also Acts 24:15, 1Corinthians 15:20-23, 1Timothy 4:10, Hebrews 2:9).\nThere is an additional lesson. This is the only incident recorded in scripture of a prisoner being released at Passover or any other Jewish Holy Day. It takes place at this very time of Jesus\u2019 arrest and crucifixion.\n\u201cNow it was the governor\u2019s custom at the Feast to release a prisoner chosen by the crowd. At that time they had a notorious prisoner, called Barabbas. So when the crowd had gathered, Pilate asked them, \u201cWhich one do you want me to release to you: Barabbas, or Jesus who is called Christ?\u201d (Matthew 27:15-17 NIV).\n\u201cNow it was the custom at the Feast to release a prisoner whom the people requested\u201d (Mark 15:6 NIV).\n\u201c(For of necessity he must release one unto them at the feast)\u201d\n(Luke 23:17).\n\u201cBut you have a custom, that I should release someone for you at the Passover; do you wish then that I release for you the King of the Jews?\u201d In Matthew it is said to be \u201cthe governor\u2019s custom\u201d (John 18:39 NIV).\nThe NAS of Mark 15:6 says, \u201cNow at the feast he,\u201d meaning Pilate, \u201cused to release unto them one prisoner.\u201d The Luke account is probably spurious, and John merely calls it a custom. But was that a custom according Israel or according to Rome? Israel at the time was under bondage to Rome and any custom that benefits the Jews would only happen with Roman consent. This must have been a Roman custom, perhaps to placate subjects.\nJohn\u2019s account, however, \u201cBut you have a custom,\u201d seems to contradict that idea. A closer look at the text helps to clarify.\nThe Diaglott translation reads, \u201cBut it is customary for you,\u201d while the interlinear reads, \u201cIt is but a custom for you.\u201d\nThe Philips translation reads, \u201cI have an arrangement with you.\u201d\nThe conclusion from examining the accounts is that a prisoner release was offered and used at the discretion of the Roman governor and that the Jews became accustomed to it.\nThere is also some evidence in an article by Sam Harris\nthat this is the case. He says, \u201cAccording to the Expositor\u2019s Bible Commentary, Frank E. Gaebelein Editor\u2026\u2019The custom referred to of releasing a prisoner at the Passover Feast is unknown outside of the Gospels. It was, however, a Roman custom and could well have been a custom in Palestine. An example of a Roman official releasing a prisoner on the demands of the people occurs in the Papyrus Florentinus 61:59ff. There the Roman governor of Egypt, G. Septimus Vegetus, says to Philbion, the accused: Thou hast been worthy of scourging, but I will give thee to the people.\u2019\u201d\nHarris2 also quotes the Interpreter\u2019s Bible in the same article which says, \u201cThe custom of amnesties (a general pardon) at festival times is known the world over. It used to be said that there was no evidence for such a proceeding in Palestine at this time, but there is a Talmudic rule that a paschal lamb may be slaughtered for one who has been promised release from prison.\u201d Again, this could have only happened with Rome\u2019s consent. Jesus condemnation freed Barabbas from a life of imprisonment and death for his crimes. What a beautiful picture of the ransom.\nThere is one last part to this story. The people and events came together at just the right time \u2013the time of Jesus crucifixion. In the Bible, Barabbas (whose name means son of a father)was in prison at the time. He was not heard of before or after. His crimes matched those of Adam\u2019s.\nThe custom of releasing a prisoner at Passover is not recorded in the Bible either before or after this event, but just happened to be offered and accepted at this time. It almost surely happened before but evidently not often.\nRoman rulers and leaders at the time were generally cruel \u2014 especially to those who claimed to be a king other than Caesar. Herod, a Jew ruling at the appointment of Rome, had killed all of the children two years old and younger. Yet, here is a Roman governor who perhaps realized Jesus\u2019 innocence and had heard from his wife about it and did what he could to free him. All this took place at Passover time. The likelihood of all of this coming together randomly at the same time is miniscule\u2013from a human standpoint.\nWe can see our Heavenly Father\u2019s providence in all of this. He had planned and arranged for this a long time before, and it was meant to be. How this increases our faith to know the story! When, this year, we partake of the emblems that represent Christ\u2019s body and blood, may we quietly say in our hearts \u2013 \u201cBehold the Man!\u201d\nThe Unity of the Body of Christ",

        "raw_content": "algebra, algebraic geometry, manifolds, math, number theory, topology\nAn Application of p-adic Volume to Minimal Models\nToday I\u2019ll sketch a proof of Ito that birational smooth minimal models have all of their Hodge numbers exactly the same. It uses the -adic integration from last time plus one piece of heavy machinery.\nFirst, the piece of heavy machinery: If are finite type schemes over the ring of integers of a number field whose generic fibers are smooth and proper, then if for all but finitely many prime ideals, , then the generic fibers and have the same Hodge numbers.\nIf you\u2019ve seen these types of hypotheses before, then there\u2019s an obvious set of theorems that will probably be used to prove this (Chebotarev + Hodge-Tate decomposition + Weil conjectures). Let\u2019s first restrict our attention to a single prime. Since we will be able to throw out bad primes, suppose we have smooth, proper varieties over of characteristic .\nProposition: If for all , then and have the same -adic Betti numbers.\nThis is a basic exercise in using the Weil conjectures. First, and clearly have the same Zeta functions, because the Zeta function is defined entirely by the number of points over . But the Zeta function decomposes\nwhere is the characteristic polynomial of Frobenius acting on . The Weil conjectures tell us we can recover the if we know the Zeta function. But now\nand hence the Betti numbers are the same. Now let\u2019s go back and notice the magic of -adic cohomology. If and are as before over the ring of integers of a number field. Our assumption about the number of points over finite fields being the same for all but finitely many primes implies that we can pick a prime of good reduction and get that the -adic Betti numbers of the reductions are the same .\nOne of the main purposes of -adic cohomology is that it is \u201ctopological.\u201d By smooth, proper base change we get that the -adic Betti numbers of the geometric generic fibers are the same\nBy the standard characteristic comparison theorem we then get that the singular cohomology is the same when base changing to , i.e.\nNow we use the Chebotarev density theorem. The Galois representations on each cohomology have the same traces of Frobenius for all but finitely many primes by assumption and hence the semisimplifications of these Galois representations are the same everywhere! Lastly, these Galois representations are coming from smooth, proper varieties and hence the representations are Hodge-Tate. You can now read the Hodge numbers off of the Hodge-Tate decomposition of the semisimplification and hence the two generic fibers have the same Hodge numbers.\nAlright, in some sense that was the \u201cuninteresting\u201d part, because it just uses a bunch of machines and is a known fact (there\u2019s also a lot of stuff to fill in to the above sketch to finish the argument). Here\u2019s the application of -adic integration.\nSuppose and are smooth birational minimal models over (for simplicity we\u2019ll assume they are Calabi-Yau, Ito shows how to get around not necessarily having a non-vanishing top form). I\u2019ll just sketch this part as well, since there are some subtleties with making sure you don\u2019t mess up too much in the process. We can \u201cspread out\u201d our varieties to get our setup in the beginning. Namely, there are proper models over some (of course they aren\u2019t smooth anymore), where the base change of the generic fibers are isomorphic to our original varieties.\nBy standard birational geometry arguments, there is some big open locus (the complement has codimension greater than ) where these are isomorphic and this descends to our model as well. Now we are almost there. We have an etale isomorphism over all but finitely many primes. If we choose nowhere vanishing top forms on the models, then the restrictions to the fibers are -adic volume forms.\nBut our standard trick works again here. The isomorphism pulls back the volume form on to a volume form on over all but finitely primes and hence they differ by a function which has -adic valuation everywhere. Thus the two models have the same volume over all but finitely many primes, and as was pointed out last time the two must have the same number of -valued points over these primes since we can read this off from knowing the volume.\nThe machinery says that we can now conclude the two smooth birational minimal models have the same Hodge numbers. I thought that was a pretty cool and unexpected application of this idea of -adic volume. It is the only one I know of. I\u2019d be interested if anyone knows of any other.\nPrevious postVolumes of p-adic Schemes\nNext postMovie Hidden Gems 1\n3 thoughts on \u201cAn Application of p-adic Volume to Minimal Models\u201d\nRenaldo Fantechi says:\nRegarding your \u201cpiece of heavy machinery\u201d from the beginning: why is just knowing that enough? In your proof sketch you are using that for all , not just , which doesn\u2019t seem to follow so easily\u2026 Or do you perhaps want to require for \u201calmost all\u201d and ?\nYes. You are quite right that the hypothesis that is much stronger than the claimed hypotheses. The outline of the proof is basically the same, but you just have to be more careful because you can\u2019t a priori argue that the dimensions of those cohomology groups are the same.\nIt turns out not to matter because Chebotarev density doesn\u2019t require the Galois representations to have the same dimension. You merely get that they have the same semi-simplifications, and then machinery from p-adic Hodge theory gives you enough to get to the end. As you point out, this result should still apply to varieties of the same dimension in characteristic 0 that have the same number of points over , but different Zeta functions.\nThe full proof is given in section 4.4 of Ito\u2019s paper: http://arxiv.org/abs/math/0209269 . It is pretty interesting and not very long at all.\nThat is very interesting, I\u2019ll have a look. Thank you for this post!",

If someone else is going to be in charge of your project, talk to them before you decide you've found the right builder. You want to feel comfortable with your project manager and be confident of their abilities.\nCan you outline my building schedule?\nYou want more than a start and completion date. A home extension requires a number of steps, each one of which takes time. They will need to knock out a wall or walls; build a foundation; build your walls; install a roof; and install exterior and interior cladding. An electrician will need to install your wiring and fixtures and you may need a plumber. Your builder should be able to give you a schedule to help you know in advance what is going to be done and when.\nWhat will you do to protect my property?\nWhen you're adding a home extension, you will be living in your home and won't want your builders to damage your property. You want to know that your home extension builders will take measures to protect your property. What will they do to ensure dust doesn't enter your home? What steps will they take to protect your landscaping? Your builder should also be able to tell you what steps you need to take to protect your property, furnishings and belongings. For example, you may need to store the furniture in the adjoining room to prevent it from being damaged.\nHow will we stay in touch?\nYou will need to stay in touch with your builder throughout the building process. Since you will probably be at work while they are working on your property, you want to know you can contact your project supervisor after hours. It's also a good idea to schedule weekly face-to-face meetings to go over what's been done and what's coming up. It's your project and you should feel like you're included in the project every step of the way.\nDo you anticipate any problems or possible cost overruns?\nMost building contracts have provisions for \"variations\" and unanticipated cost overruns. Some of these can be costly and time consuming. Go over your contract with your builder and ask them to explain any potential problems or added costs in detail. A reputable builder will want you to know everything you need to know in advance and why they can't account for potential cost overruns in advance.\nWhat can I expect to see when the project is done?\nThis may seem like a silly question, but it's a good question to ask. Your landscaping may need some work or you may need to have other work done to make your home extension an integral part of your home. Your builder should be able to tell you what your contract does and does not include. They should also supply you with end-of-project documentation that includes all variations to the original contract and details of the costs of those variations. Knowing what to expect when the project is completed will help you anticipate any work that has to be done when the builders leave and the potential costs of the work.\nYou might also like: Budgeting and planning a home extension, What to know before building a sunroom",

        "raw_content": "You have outgrown your current home and know it's time for a change, but should you demolish your home and start over from scratch? Wouldn't it be cheaper to just renovate? What about selling? These are all good questions and there is no one right answer for everybody. Before you do something drastic, sit down and consider the cost/benefits of each of these options.\nWhen to Renovate\nIf your home is relatively new and is on solid foundations, then renovating may be the best solution. However, there are other questions you need to answer, too:\nWill a home addition of a bedroom, for instance, serve your purposes or is it really just a stop-gap measure?\nHas your family outgrown your kitchen and living room?\nAre your growing children going to be stuck in bedrooms that were designed for toddlers when they become teenagers?\nIs renovating the most cost-effective solution? If you just want to add on a room and if it can be be seamlessly attached to your home, it may be a cost-effective solution. On the other hand, if you are thinking of doing extensive renovations, the costs associated with making the renovations fit in with the rest of the home may end up costing you more than they are worth. Properly done, a home extension should look like an organic part of the existing home. This may mean that you also have to re-clad your existing home, add on a matching roof and/or do extensive landscaping.\nWill council allow you to renovate? It will cost you money to find out if your plan will be approved, so before you decide to add on, you should be reasonably certain that council will approve the renovation. Also don't forget to factor the costs of insurances and ongoing approvals into your overall budget.\nWhen you renovate, you may not have to live elsewhere while the renovations are going on. This may be one reason to choose to renovate rather than demolish. However, bear in mind the many inconveniences that will occur if you choose to stay in your home while renovations are taking place.\nIn many cases, the best reasons for selling a family home and building another on another block of land are if your current land is not big enough for you or if you wish to move to a new location. The costs of selling and buying usually more than offset the cost of demolishing and building on your current property.\nWhen to Demolish\nThere are two occasions when demolishing your home and starting over from scratch is almost certainly your best option:\nWhen the home is old and requires extensive repairs.\nWhen you love everything about your location except for the home.\nIn all other cases, you need to make a more careful decision. Almost all home renovations include some alterations to the existing structure. How extensive will they be? How much will they cost? In the long run, will they be worth it?\nIf you love your current location, it is likely you will want to stay there for many years. Will you be happy with your renovation ten years from now or will you spend the next ten years wishing you had demolished and built your dream home from scratch?\nWhen you decide to sell your home, will a new home fetch a better price than one that has an addition? Usually, a newer home is worth quite a bit more than one that has just been renovated.\nIn a nutshell, before you decide whether or not to demolish, renovate or re-locate, add up the costs involved in each of these options and weigh the costs versus their benefits, both now and into the future. Why demolish? If the short term cost and inconvenience of demolition are outweighed by its long-term lifestyle and cost benefits, then it may be the best decision you can make.\nFind a demolition company in your local area.\nYou might also like: Getting Quotes for Demolition, Choosing a Demolition Company",

This morning I decided that I would like to begin keeping a prayer journal. Nothing too fancy, just a small notebook that I can keep with me at all times and jot down names, notes and dates. I like to doodle, so that will most likely be in my journal, because it will reflect me. The purpose is to be able to write down the names of all the people I\u2019m praying for so I don\u2019t forget anyone, while also providing a record of people that I need to follow up with. I also think others will trust me more and take me a little more seriously when they see me write down their names in a book. Finally, it will be a great witnessing tool.\nKicking it up a notch, I\u2019m going to add a Bible verse by every name, so that when I remember the person in prayer, and I can pray the scriptures. I imagine I will also learn scriptures as I go.\nEnjoy your Tuesday and let me know what you are trying!

This morning the world woke up to another deadly mass shooting. Although this event occurred many miles away from me, people I know and love were impacted.\nSo, you may ask, how can I tell you something good today, when so much bad has taken place? How can we teach our children to be safe, without giving them great fear? You may even say, you have no idea what it was like. I was there. I saw the fear in their eyes and those who were trampled. My heart was pounding. I was afraid for my life. I watched a loved one die. We were there to have fun. Who knew?\nYou are right. I have no idea and cannot even imagine. This morning I prayed that God would allow me to be a comfort to those who have watched, experienced and fear these types of brutal attacks. In my opinion, the less said about the attacker, the better. Nothing anyone says will ever make us feel better about what happened. Instead, let\u2019s celebrate the heroes. The people who were there, gave their lives or survived, helped others and continue to look for ways to make the world a better place in Las Vegas and all around the world are the heroes. The good news is, there are more heroes than attackers. The best news is Christians are never alone. They walk with God by their side every hour of every day. If you are not a Christian and would like to learn more, or if you would like to request prayers, let me know.\nToday, let\u2019s celebrate all heroes! God bless you!\nchange the worldChristian LivingHealinginspirationMotivationPraisePrayer\nPrevious Post Praise the Lord Sunday \u2013 Step It Up!\nNext Post Try Something New Tuesday \u2013 Trust\nAmen! Those who value life can never make sense of the atrocities cause by those who disparage it. Yet, in the midst of life\u2019s tragedies and griefs God reminds us that He is there, This assurance is the only thing that can truly help us through the most difficult of times.

Bronze memorials, granite monuments and memorial benches are common forms of markers, all of which may be used to memorialize individuals, couples or families.\nBronze memorials, the most common lawn-level marker, are designed especially for those who prefer in-ground burial. Bronze memorials come in a variety of sizes and can be used for individual, companion and family burial spaces.\nGranite monuments, sometimes referred to as headstones, stand upright in a cemetery and have long been a popular form of memorialization; they come in many different sizes and can be as simple or elaborate as you choose.\nMemorial benches provide an alternative to traditional lawn-level markers and upright monuments. They are generally crafted of lasting granite, and there are many colors and designs to choose from. Often engraved with a family name, memorial benches can be placed in an area of the cemetery that is meaningful to you or your loved ones.\nSpecial remembrances are another unique way to pay tribute to your loved one. Lasting impressions such as porcelain cameo portraits or bronze oval portraits of your loved one held in a bronze or stainless steel ring can be applied to nearly any type of marker. Flowers vases made of bronze, granite or other lasting materials are also available for memorial, monument, mausoleum and niche markers.\nTo learn more about the marker and remembrance options available at Holly Hill Memorial Park in Fairburn, please call (770) 964-6014, or fill out our online form.

A TODAY News article from MSNBC reports:\nGangs like the Bloods and the Crips are engaging in crimes such as identity theft, counterfeiting, selling stolen goods and even bank, credit card and mortgage fraud, said a new FBI gangs threat assessment.\nThe article goes on to discuss the rise in gang membership and the use of social media to coordinate activities and communicate amongst members:\nIn 2009, the FBI estimated there were 1 million gang members. It attributes some of the 40 percent increase since then to more comprehensive reporting by law enforcement agencies. Agency officials said they were unable to determine exactly how many new gang members there were now since the last estimate, but that such membership was indeed on the rise.\nGangs are using social media such as Facebook and YouTube to recruit members and communicate, as well as posting photos of their lifestyle to present a tough image, the assessment said.\nRead More: FBI: Gangs turning to white-collar crimes",

        "raw_content": "I bet you\u2019ve bought a lipstick or liner and it\u2019s just \u2018lived\u2019 in your makeup bag for years. I know I have! So, what does PAO mean? Well, Period After Opening. The symbols below are either printed on the box or packaging. They look like a little tub with a number and the letter \u2018M\u2019 next to it. The \u2018M\u2019 stands for month and the number, you guessed it, the number of months! So, for example, if your brand new Ruby Woo lipstick states \u201912M\u2019 once it\u2019s opened up, from that time you\u2019ve got 12 months to use it.\nThe reason beauty products have expiration dates is that over time bacteria builds up in them and when used they can cause reactions to your skin or become less efficacious. It\u2019s important to abide by these.\nThere are times when brands can\u2019t fit all the details onto the product, for example, eye creams, liners, lipsticks \u2013 they\u2019re just so small.\nWhen this happens they include a symbol showing a hand pointing to a book. This means that there\u2019s additional information which has been printed usually on a paper insert. This is tucked inside the packaging which shares said information. This information ranges from the INCI list (International Nomenclature of Cosmetic Ingredients) which you may also know as the ingredients list. It usually also includes directions of use and any specific warnings i.e. to be kept out of reach of children.\nThe Mobius Loop\nThis symbol has the oddest name I must admit, but with the building awareness around recycling, this triangular symbol is a key one to look out for.\nThis symbol means that the product\u2019s packaging can be recycled. This doesn\u2019t, however, mean that it has been used with recycled materials. There will be times when the symbol appears with a number inside it, which indicates the percentage of packaging that comes from recycled materials.\nNow, this one isn\u2019t to be confused with the first symbol I spoke about, PAO as it\u2019s quite different. Any beauty product that has a \u2018lifespan\u2019 of less than 30 months has a Best Before End date (BBE) which is indicated by the below symbol. Under EU regulations, products sold here must include a PAO or BBE symbol.\nThe Leaping Bunny symbol is the only internationally recognised logo that indicates that no animal testing was used in the process of developing a product. However, this is not to say that a beauty brand that does not have the logo isn\u2019t cruelty-free. In order to have usage rights for this symbol, brands have to pay Leaping Bunny. Some brands may not have the money to pay said amount of money and thus do not have it on the packaging. If you want to be 100% sure that the brand you\u2019re buying into is crulety-free it\u2019s best to refer to the Leaping Bunny website.\nThere are other cruelty-free corporations such as the PETA\u2019s Beauty Without Bunnies which indicates that a brand has provided documentation to PETA asserting that they do not test on animals.\nA symbol which I\u2019ve only ever seen in black and white funnily enough is the swirling arrow symbol below called the Green Dot. This symbol shows that a brand is a part of a recycling and recovery programme which deals with packaging waste. From further reading on the website, my key take out was that all companies in Europe have a legal obligation to recycle their waste.\nThe E Mark\nThe E Mark is a legal requirement to show the net contents of a beauty product on its packaging. In order for a product to show an E Mark symbol, the brand must demonstrate that the average quantity of product in a batch cannot be less than the amount on the label. Essentially, this is showing that we\u2019re paying for what we\u2019re getting and not being short changed.\nBeauty is a huge passion of mine and I have learned so much over the last three years working in the industry. Simple knowledge such as what the symbols mean will help you to understand if the brand is environmentally conscious, cruelty-free or heaven forbid out of date. Of course, there are numerous other I could talk about and at some stage I will. For the time being, here are the key beauty symbols you should become familiar with.\nBeauty, Beauty Blogger, Make Up, Makeup, Skincare\nPrevious Post My Style Do\u2019s & Don\u2019t\u2019s\nkglenkaKelly Glen\nThis was a very interesting and informative post on what all of them mean, it can get very confusing sometimes but you explained it and made it easy to understand. I would be very interested in more posts like this.\nThank you so much for your lovely feedback. I\u2019m so glad you found my post useful. It\u2019s so important that we\u2019re aware of what we\u2019re putting on our skin. They\u2019ll be more beauty content coming soon. B x",

They found that rising global temperatures would lead to an increase in crop losses from insects, especially in temperate regions. Losses are projected to rise by 10 to 25% per degree of warming.\nJust a 2-degree rise in global average temperature will result in total crop losses of approximately 213 million tons for the three grains, the researchers say.\nInsects like it hotter \u2013 up to a point\nThe losses will come from an increase in insect metabolism, and from faster insect population growth rates. The link with metabolism is straightforward. \u201cWhen the temperature increases, the insects\u2019 metabolism increases so they have to eat more,\u201d said Merrill, a researcher in UVM\u2019s Dept. of Plant and Soil Science and Gund Institute for Environment. \u201cThat\u2019s not good for crops.\u201d\nThe link with population growth, however, is more complex. Insects have an optimal temperature where their population grows best. If the temperature is too cold or too hot, the population will grow more slowly. That is why the losses will be greatest in temperate regions, but less severe in the tropics.\n\u201cTemperate regions are not at that optimal temperature, so if the temperature increases there, populations will grow faster,\u201d said Merrill, an ecologist who studies plant-crop interactions. \u201cBut insects in the tropics are already close to their optimal temperature, so the populations will actually grow slower. It\u2019s just too hot for them.\u201d\nKey grain crops to take a hit\nAccording to the study, wheat, which is typically grown in cool climates, will suffer the most, as increased temperatures will lead to greater insect metabolism, as well as increased pest populations and survival rates over the winter. Maize, which is grown in some areas where population rates will increase and others where they will decline, will face a more uneven future.\nIn rice, which is mostly grown in warm tropical environments, crop losses will actually stabilize if average temperatures rise above 3oC, as population growth drops, counteracting the effect of increased metabolism in the pests. \u201cRice losses will taper off as the temperature rises above a certain point,\u201d said Merrill.\nThat means that the most substantial yield declines will happen in some of the world\u2019s most productive agricultural regions. \u201cThe overall picture is, if you\u2019re growing a lot of food in a temperate region, you\u2019re going to be hit hardest,\u201d said Merrill.\n\u201cI hope our results demonstrate the importance of collecting more data on how pests will impact crop losses in a warming world \u2014 because collectively, our choice now is not whether or not we will allow warming to occur, but how much warming we\u2019re willing to tolerate,\u201d said Curtis Deutsch of the University of Washington, who co-led the study with Joshua Tewksbury, director of Future Earth at the University of Colorado, Boulder.\nFrance, China and the United States, which produce most of the world\u2019s maize, are among the countries that are expected to experience the largest increases in crop losses from insect pests. France and China, as major producers of wheat and rice, respectively, are also expected to face large increases in losses of those grains as well. \u201cThe areas that produce the most grain, especially wheat and corn \u2013 the US, France and China \u2013 are going to be hit hardest,\u201d said Merrill.\nReduced yields in these three staple crops are a particular concern, because so many people around the world rely on them. Together they account for 42% of direct calories consumed by humans worldwide. Increased crop losses will result in a rise in food insecurity, especially in those parts of the world where it is already rife, and could lead to conflict.\nAs farmers adapt to a changing climate by shifting planting dates or switching to new cultivars, they will also have to find ways to deal with pests, by introducing new crop rotations, or using more pesticides. But not all of these strategies will be available to all farmers. \u201cThere are a lot of things richer countries can do to reduce the effect, by increasing pesticide use or expanding integrated pest management strategies,\u201d said Merrill. \u201cBut poorer countries that rely on these crops as staple grains will have a harder time.\u201d\nIn addition to Merrill, Deutsch, and Tewksbury, study co-authors include Michelle Tigchelaar, David Battisti, Raymond Huey from University of Washington, and Rosamond Naylor of Stanford University. The research was funded by the National Science Foundation and the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation.",

        "raw_content": "The Challenge of Affluence: Self-Control and Well-Being in the United States and Britain since 1950\nOffer, Avner\n(Chichele Professor of Economic History, University of Oxford, Fellow of All Souls College, Oxford, and Fellow of the British Academy)\nSince the 1940s Americans and Britons have come to enjoy an era of rising material abundance. Yet this has been accompanied by a range of social and personal disorders, including family breakdown, addiction, mental instability, crime, obesity, inequality, economic insecurity, and declining trust. Avner Offer argues that well-being has lagged behind affluence in these societies, because they present an environment in which consistent choices are difficult to achieve over different time ranges and in which the capacity for personal and social commitment is undermined by the flow of novelty. His approach draws on economics and social science, makes use of the latest cognitive research, and provides a detailed and reasoned critique of modern consumer society, especially the assumption that freedom of choice necessarily maximizes individual and social well-being. The book falls into three parts. Part one analyses the ways in which economic resources map on to human welfare, why choice is so intractable, and how commitment to people and institutions is sustained. It argues that choice is constrained by prior obligation and reciprocity. The second section then applies these conceptual arguments to comparative empirical studies of advertising, of eating and obesity, and of the production and acquisition of appliances and automobiles. Finally, in part three, Offer investigates social and personal relations in the USA and Britain, including inter-personal regard, the rewards and reversals of status, the social and psychological costs of inequality, and the challenges posed to heterosexual love and to parenthood by the rise of affluence.\nOffer, Avner, 2007. \"The Challenge of Affluence: Self-Control and Well-Being in the United States and Britain since 1950,\" OUP Catalogue, Oxford University Press, number 9780199216628.",

        "raw_content": "Well, it\u2019s finally happened, and if you didn\u2019t notice it, we wouldn\u2019t blame you (it didn\u2019t exactly make the evening news). Google is saying goodbye to Google+, the perennial black sheep of social networking services. Google may be the Grand Poobah where search engine is concerned, but since it launched Google+ in 2011 (to much fanfare), the social service never really caught on, except among bread makers and board game enthusiasts.\nWhether you are actively using Google+ in your social media marketing or not, it\u2019s important to be aware of the background behind the story and to adapt if necessary. Part of Google\u2019s decision to ax Google+ over the next ten months follows the discovery of a previously undisclosed security glitch that exposed hundreds of thousands of Gmail users\u2019 information to outside sources.\nDuring the scandal involving Facebook and Cambridge Analytica in March 2018, another security breach was happening in the heart of Google. The company took care of the threat at the time, but in the midst of the Cambridge Analytica storm, and the growing tech backlash, Google decided not to disclose what had happened to the public. That was until the Wall Street Journal first broke the story in July 2018, then Google had no choice but to start damage control.\nHow Was User Data Compromised?\nIn 2017, in an effort to maintain user confidence and security, Google assured Gmail users that its computers would no longer scan their inboxes for data to facilitate personalized ads. However, between 2015-2018, the internet titan continued to allow external software developers access to the inboxes of unsuspecting Gmail users who had registered for email services offering price comparisons on consumer goods, automated travel planning, and other tools.\nSince its inception, Google+ has always been known for its low usage and engagement levels (90% percent of Google+ user sessions last less than five seconds). And although the effect of the bug seems to have been relatively small in scope, and there is no evidence that any private data was in fact breached, the crux of the issue is that Google tried to cover it up and didn\u2019t come clean until the Wall Street Journal obtained some internal memos discussing the problem.\nGoogle still plans to maintain the service for its business clients who use Google+ to facilitate communication among co-workers.\nWhat Does It Mean for Your Medical Practice?\nFor starters, if you have Google+ as part of your social share buttons anywhere on your website or email applications such as MailChimp, Constant Contact, or Active Campaign, you\u2019ll want to take them off as soon as possible. If you need help, talk to your web developer or reach out to us directly.\nYou can also send out an email to your patients and community to notify them of the change (nudge, nudge, wink, wink). It will show them that you are up to date on current online events that may affect their privacy, and it gives you an excuse to reach out to past patients who you haven\u2019t seen for a while. You could also include some information on the latest practice developments, procedures, and promotions.\nAgain, if you have any questions or concerns or need help with any of this, give us a shout. We\u2019ll be glad to help.",

        "title": "A Visit to Demerara Distillers Limited | Inu A Kena",
        "raw_content": "Visiting Demerara Distillers Limited\nName the sugar and rum-producing country that lies along the Atlantic Ocean between Venezuela and Suriname (it also shares a border with Brazil). If you answered \u201cGuyana\u201d, give yourself a gold star. The former colony founded by the Dutch and subsequently ruled by the British has been independent since 1966, and is home to one of the most fertile sugar-producing regions in the world.\nIn days gone by, it was common for a Guyanese sugar factory to operate a distillery to upcycle the molasses into rum. But as the sugar industry fell on hard times, the stills went cold and the distilleries were shuttered. Today, the only remaining distillery in Guyana is Demerara Distillers Limited (DDL), a publicly held company with 9,000 shareholders.\nLocated at the Diamond Plantation along the East Bank of the Demerara River, this is where you can find some of the rum world\u2019s oldest and most historically significant stills\u2014not in a museum, but in the still house making rum. For this reason, DDL has been described as the rum world\u2019s Mecca\u2014an almost sacred place that every true rum aficionado must endeavor to visit at least once.\nArriving at the gate, we\u2019re greeted by DDL\u2019s Shaun Caleb, a gentle giant of a man with a quick smile and quiet confidence. Caleb, a graduate of Princeton with a degree in Chemical Engineering, is a rare commodity in a country famous for its \u201cbrain drain\u201d; he was promoted to Master Distiller after a decade with the company. Who better to show us around?\nWe began our tour at the end of the process, where we saw DDL\u2019s most recent innovation\u2014an EU/WIRSPA-financed digestion system that makes enough biogas to meet 70% of the distillery\u2019s energy needs. The balance is generated with diesel, but Caleb hopes to eliminate the need for diesel soon by using other green technologies such as solar. The system is fed with 800-1200 cubic meters per day of wastewater (211,000 \u2013 317,000 gallons) which provides a perfect feedstock for conversion to biogas, and greatly reduces the biological oxygen demand (BOD) discharged to the river.\nFrom the digester, we moved to back to the beginning with the yeast propagation and fermentation process. Using 100% Guyana molasses and standard dry yeast, nutrients are added and the yeast is propagated over 24 hours in a closely-controlled process that accounts for temperature, pH and sugar content. From there, the yeast is added to the bulk molasses and fermented for 20-24 hours, or until the Brix level drops from 84 to about 19.\nAt this point, the wine is 8% ABV, which is 2% higher than in previous years. (Moving from 6%-8% wine meant an energy savings of 25% on the distillation side.) Using closed-top tanks allows DDL to capture the resultant CO2, which is captured, scrubbed and sold as 99.999% pure CO2 for food grade use (DDL\u2019s closed-top fermentation capacity is 400,000 gallons).\nFrom the fermenters, we moved to the still house, where we would see DDL\u2019s amazing collection of column and pot stills, the newest of which was made in the 1980s, and the oldest of which was made in the 1700s!\nThe French Savalle Still is an original four-column still dating to the 1700s. It was originally from the Uitvlught Distillery (pronounced \u201ceye-fluht\u201d) which was located next to the Isaac Christiany Boody Plantation (the two of which were known collectively as ICBU). The distillery closed in 2000, and the still was transferred to the Diamond distillery. The continuous still can reach an impressive 90-94% ABV, and yields a diverse set of rums with a signature coconut note\u2014over two dozen marques in all. We were treated to a sample directly from the still, and it was indeed delightful.\nWe then moved down to see the famous wooden pot stills, now more than 250 years old. The double wooden still hails from the Port Mourant (PM) Estate, which was founded in 1732. The PM still was later moved to the Uitvlught distillery before moving again to Diamond in 2000.\nThe single wooden still was originally from Versailles along the West Bank of the Demerara. It was subsequently moved to Enmore, then Uitvlught, and finally to Diamond.\nThe two wooden pot stills produce fruitier, heavier distillates, small amounts of which are used in all of the El Dorado premium blends. The retorts are charged with heads and tails \u201cto give the right punch\u201d according to Caleb. Congener levels from the double wooden pot still can reach as high as 800 ppm (all of their other stills top out at around 100 ppm). The wood must be replaced from time to time, but can last decades if properly cared for.\nIn addition to the wooden pot stills, DDL operates a John Dore high ester pot still, which is outfitted with a \u201cdouble thumper\u201d arrangement.\nJust past the wooden pot stills, we see the famous EHP wooden Coffey still from the Enmore Sugar Estate, founded by Edward Henry Porter (EHP). While the idea of a wooden still may seem odd today, Coffey stills (invented in 1832) were being made of wood as late as the early 1900s, according to DDL\u2019s Caleb. DDL\u2019s wooden Coffey still was made in 1880, and continues to run regularly today, making medium-bodied, fruity rum up to 90% ABV.\nIn addition to the antique stills, DDL operates newer five-column stills that can operate under vacuum or positive pressure. Running under vacuum can reduce energy consumption by as much as 30%, and yields a slightly different flavor profile (pressure affects volatility, and therefore flavor). These stills can take the ethanol to 96.7%, so it\u2019s here that DDL makes neutral alcohol for its locally-marketed Ivanoff vodka.\nAfter standing in awe of the stills, we moved on to the barrel warehouses, where DDL stores an eye-popping 89,000 barrels\u2014a number the company hopes to double by 2020. Entering warehouse number one, the smell of 26,000 barrels of delicious rum tantalizes us as we learn that the evaporation rate through the Kentucky Bourbon barrels here is 5%-7% on average. DDL\u2019s coopers reassemble barrels as necessary, but do not re-char them.\nAll of the rum in these barrels come from single stills, and are blended post-aging.\nWe were treated to a taste from a barrel filled in 2001 at 55%, a one year-old Savalle rum at 70%, and a 2010 EHP. Each was phenomenal. As a side note, the method to remove the bung from the barrel was quite interesting: the warehouseman simply whacked the barrel a few inches to the side of the bung, and it popped right out!\nOnce dumped, the rums are chilled to -20\u00b0C and filtered with a 0.1\u00b5 filter before moving to one of the three new state-of-the-art bottling lines.\nThe three lines combined are capable of producing up to 23,800 bottles per hour.\nAfter touring the bottling plant, we walked over to the heritage center\u2014a museum created in 2007 to honor the history of Guyanese rum-making.\nThere we were greeted by DDL Master Taster, Sharon Sue Hang Baksh. A chemist by training, Sharon moved from the analytic to the organoleptic in 2009, and oversees blending for the El Dorado line of rums as well as DDL\u2019s bulk rum products.\nSharon showed us around the museum which houses many interesting historical photos, and amazing scale models of the various stills in use at Diamond distillery. There are also pieces of retired copper equipment polished to an almost unimaginable luster.\nJust beyond the museum, the tasting room beckoned. There we took seats at the Barrel Bar, which is constructed almost entirely out of retired rum barrels. After sampling the rums and chatting for a bit, we took a short ride to the DDL Staff Club.\nAt the staff club, we were joined by DDL Marketing Director Sharda Veeren-Chand at yet another bar that featured the entire DDL lineup.\nPreprandial libations prepared our bellies for the amazing Guyanese luncheon prepared by the staff chef, which would fortify us for the 35 kilometer ride to the Enmore Sugar Factory (a narrative of that visit can be found here).\nMany thanks to the DDL team for their hospitality. The entire experience at the Diamond Estate was incredible, and one cannot help but be amazed by the juxtaposition of old and new technology, history and innovation, operating side-by-side. In a country that has struggled economically, throwing things in the bin is never the first option. In Guyana, old is made new through thoughtful determination and hard work, and we rum aficionados are privileged to continually taste the fruits of this labor.\nEditor\u2019s note: This trip was sponsored by the West Indies Rum & Spirits Producers Association (WIRSPA) under the auspices of the Authentic Caribbean Rum Certification (ACR) Program. After completing the free 4-hour certification course in San Francisco, I submitted an application for, and was accepted into the Full Certification program in the Caribbean. As part of the inaugural class, we visited six Caribbean rum distilleries and one sugar factory across three countries in four days. I highly recommend taking the free certification class when it comes to a town near you. It\u2019s quite informative, but best of all, it qualifies you to apply for the Full Certification program in the Caribbean (also free of charge).",

These names may be officially designated by the local government or they may simply be widely used.\nThis map depicts endonyms of the countries of the world in their official or national languages. In cases where a country has more than one national or official language, the language that is most widely used by the local population is shown.\nIt's an evolving project, with the cartographer making adjustments based on corrections, linguistic changes, and geographic discoveries.

Everyday, more and more children are facing difficulties in the articulation of words, they are having difficulty recognizing the animals and objects in our language, are encountering difficulties in the recognition of numbers and in different mathematical calculations, and this is also manifested with the difficulty of socialization and decreasing self-confidence in children.\nBased on the findings of many studies about the difficulties arising from the excessive use of games and videos in foreign languages, we decided to create an application in the Albanian language that helps children to articulate the right words, teach them fonts, numbers, collection, subtraction, simultaneously enables them in focus or attention.\nFOL is the only application in Albanian language of this type. This app isn\u2019t only for children, this app can use also adults (parents and teachers) by receiving information about articulation disorders and methods that can be used in home conditions and school.\nThanks a lot to IPKO FOUNDATION for the support they have been offering, now the application is functional and can be used by everyone. You can find the application in the play store and app store. We would encourage everyone to apply for sponsorship at IF and be part of IPKO Foundation family. They are serious and love to make big dreams come true.\nFOL team.",

        "raw_content": "Qualifications lowered for OPP commissioner job, allowing Ford family friend to apply\nPremier Doug Ford appointed longtime family friend and Toronto Police superintendent Ron Taverner to become OPP commissioner on Nov. 29, 2018. The two are pictured at a fundraising gala in 2016. Facebook/Reena Foundation\nTORONTO \u2014 When the top job with the Ontario Provincial Police was posted in October, Ron Taverner couldn\u2019t apply, because his rank was too low.\nTwo days later, the job requirements were changed \u2014 paving the way for the Ford family friend to apply.\nHe got the job.\nThe postings were obtained exclusively by iPolitics late Monday evening.\nThe first job description was posted to the Ontario Association of Chiefs of Police website in October and \u2014 according to a search of the document\u2019s web history \u2014 was last modified on Oct. 22.\nThat posting required all applicants to hold, at minimum, the rank of deputy chief or assistant commissioner.\nThe candidate should have a \u201ctrack record and demonstrated ability to provide executive leadership in a complex policing organization at the rank of Deputy Police Chief or higher, or Assistant Commissioner or higher in a major police service,\u201d read the posting.\nTaverner, a superintendent with the Toronto Police Service, sits two ranks below that threshold.\nThe original job posting for the OPP commissioner vacancy on the Ontario Association of Chiefs of Police website, left, compared with the revised version, right.\nTwo days later, a document entitled \u201cOPP Commissioner Updated\u201d appeared on the association\u2019s site. The only difference between that posting and the first is that the minimum-rank requirements were removed.\nThe candidate should have a \u201ctrack record and demonstrated ability to provide executive leadership in a complex policing organization,\u201d read the new posting.\nThe change made Taverner eligible to apply for the job, which he was ultimately awarded on Nov. 29.\nSal Badali of Odgers Berndtson, the head-hunting agency that \u201csupported\u201d the commissioner-selection process, said \u201celiminating the rank requirement was done to broaden the potential pool of applicants.\u201d\n\u201cIt turned out that over half the pool of applicants were not at the Deputy Chief level,\u201d Badali said over email.\n[READ MORE: Opposition wants second investigation into Ford\u2019s chief of staff]\nThe premier\u2019s office refused to comment on the matter when reached by iPolitics, saying the selection process was managed by the \u201cpublic service in its entirety.\u201d The commissioner\u2019s job is an Order-in-Council appointment, meaning it must be approved by provincial cabinet.\nThe premier\u2019s office said requests for comment about Taverner\u2019s appointment should be directed to the cabinet office, which reports to the premier. A request to explain who asked for the change in job requirements was not returned by deadline.\nCommunity Safety Minister Sylvia Jones said in Tuesday\u2019s question period that the posting was changed to broaden the pool of prospective applicants.\n\u201cWe wanted to make sure the best person to handle the position was going to apply,\u201d she said, adding that the decision was made by the \u201chiring crew.\u201d\nTaverner\u2019s appointment \u2014 announced late Thursday \u2014 immediately raised eyebrows.\n\u201cThe fix was in from Day 1,\u201d former OPP commissioner Chris Lewis told CP24 on Thursday.\n\u201cThe decision\u2019s the premier\u2019s,\u201d Lewis said. \u201cThere\u2019s old relationships there; we all know it, and I think it was a travesty that this occurred.\n\u201cAnd I don\u2019t want to show any disrespect to Ron Taverner. He got the job, good for him. I don\u2019t think it\u2019s good for the OPP, and I don\u2019t think it was a good decision on the part of government whatsoever.\u201d\nThe opposition seized on the appointment during question period on Monday, calling on the Progressive Conservatives to explain how Taverner was picked.\n\u201cThe choice was made by an independent commissioner, and it was approved by cabinet on Thursday,\u201d Community Safety Minister Sylvia Jones said in response.\nThat wasn\u2019t good enough for NDP Leader Andrea Horwath, who told reporters early on Monday she thinks Lewis\u2019s concerns are legitimate.\n\u201cCome clean and outline \u2014 particularly and specifically \u2014 what the process was,\u201d Horwath said. \u201cLet\u2019s figure out why the process left us with a candidate that leaves so many people scratching their heads.\u201d\n[READ MORE: Ford government reopens door to cash-for-access fundraising]\nTaverner has served in the Toronto Police Service since 1967. As superintendent, he is the unit commander for three divisions that overlap with Ford\u2019s home community of Etobicoke, Ont.\nWith his new job \u2014 which he will start on Dec. 17 \u2014 Taverner will leapfrog over the OPP ranks of chief superintendent and deputy commissioner to become commissioner.\nAsked about the multiple promotions in rank early Monday, Jones said, \u201cWe are looking for someone that understands front-line officers, that understands the challenges that are there, and the hiring process saw that clearly.\u201d\nThe promotion means Taverner will go from being responsible for more than 700 uniformed officers and civilian staff to approximately 8,000 uniformed officers and civilian employees.\nJones told reporters that 27 people applied for the job and 15 of them were interviewed.\nIn its Thursday press release, the government said Taverner\u2019s appointment was unanimously recommended by a \u201cselection committee comprised exclusively of members of the Ontario Public Service and supported by Odgers Berndtson.\u201d\nIn spite of Ford and Taverner\u2019s personal relationship, Jones said she can \u201cabsolutely\u201d guarantee there will be a separation between the premier\u2019s office and the commissioner.\nHowever, Horwath told reporters she\u2019s skeptical any separation will be maintained, because Ford\u2019s office has previously tried to direct police operations, she said. In November, the Toronto Star reported that Ford\u2019s chief of staff asked senior officials to ask police to raid illegal dispensaries on the day cannabis was legalized.\n\u201cWe\u2019ve already seen, as you know, a government that doesn\u2019t understand that that\u2019s not supposed to happen,\u201d Horwath said.\nThe Ford government is already facing questions over its involvement in appointments in the electricity sector.\nFord\u2019s chief of staff, Dean French, was accused of interfering with hiring at Ontario Power Generation last month. He reportedly asked the provincial Crown corporation to fire Alykhan Velshi, who held a key post in the office of former PC leader Patrick Brown, according to reporting by the Globe and Mail.\nAnd last week, the Globe reported that the premier\u2019s office is in a standoff with Hydro One over the selection of its next CEO.",

        "raw_content": "Millennials: How they drive a workforce with their heads in the cloud\nBy 2020, there will be more millennials in the Australian workforce than any other generation.\nThere\u2019s no denying, millennials are shaking up the world of work as we know it.\nTen years ago, no one would have considered activity-based working as the norm, along with instant voice and video communication with colleagues from half way across the city or the world.\nAs evolving end-user experiences drive the need for faster and smarter organisations, digital natives are making it clear that integrating the latest technologies into the workplace is now expected.\nA global survey by IDC found that by the end of 2017, 60% of the top 1000 enterprises in the Asia-Pacific region will make digital transformation the centre of their corporate strategy. Much of this is going to be focused on attracting, training, retaining and getting the best from your workforce.\nThe rise of millennials indicates the need for more mobile-savvy engagement as app-centric work environments become the norm for today\u2019s employees.\nConnect and conquer\nReal-time communication and actionable insights will define the millennial workforce. They want to do a lot in as little time as possible, demanding two-way feedback, and the ability to instantly connect, engage, and collaborate. Fast, smart and secure applications are needed to make this communication instantaneous.\nThe C-suite will need to grasp this opportunity and build a new digital workplace, or risk getting shunned by the best millennial talent.\nWhen managing and motivating millennials, the more devices the better. Millennials are dedicated to producing maximum output with the least amount of input and are constantly engaging with multiple devices to achieve this.\nWhether it is their smartphone, tablet, smartwatch or PC, they embrace the blurred lines between personal life and professional work, as devices become multi-purpose.\nMillennials will be the first generation to actively engage with virtual reality (VR) and future technologies based on the internet of things (IOT) in a manner which truly blurs the boundaries of current thinking.\nThis rise in mobility presents both a risk and growth opportunity. Placing apps at the heart of organisations can put extreme pressure on IT departments. While Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) trends have driven productivity and data accessibility forward in leaps and bounds, they have also impacted IT management and security in the opposite way.\nA seamless working experience tends to motivate millennials further, therefore security processes across all applications and devices need to be re-designed to ensure that security scans or breaches do not break workplace momentum.\nAn organisation\u2019s strength is built on the cumulative knowledge of its people. Millennials consume large amounts of information quickly and then thrive on sharing that knowledge.\nBy providing millennial employees with the right tools to collaborate, and access information quickly and easily, organisations can add more value for their clients through more engaged, productive and mobile teams.\nImplementing efficient collaboration processes can be as simple as every department creating their own online community using applications like Google Drive and Dropbox to share insights and support mutual success.\nMillennials are no longer the leaders of tomorrow, rather increasingly, they are the leaders of today.\nTheir views on how organisations should conduct themselves, are intertwined with their own values and continued interaction with technology. Therefore, it makes good business sense for organisations to empower millennial employees, to work at any time, in any place, on any device.\nUltimately increasing productivity, widening the talent pool, and contributing to higher levels of employee satisfaction.\nArticle by Rob Malkin, managing director of ANZ at F5 Networks",

        "title": "How a violin prodigy helped a teacher change the yoga world forever \u2013 IY Magazine",
        "raw_content": "In 1951 a world-renowned violin player on tour in New Zealand came across an idea that intrigued him. He read of the possibility that yoga might help him relax. He was a young man who travelled the world and relaxation was in short supply.\nA year later he was in Mumbai for a concert tour where he advertised for a teacher. In their first meeting, he complained of tiredness and the yoga teacher suggested he lie in savasana where he fell asleep. An hour later he awoke and a friendship which was to last the entirety of their lives was born. The yoga teacher was the then unknown B.K.S. Iyengar, the violinist was the very well-known Yehudi Menuhin.\nThe future yoga guru was born in 1918. The date is notable for the end of the First World War, but also for the flu epidemic which killed more people that year than the whole war. His mother was sick with the flu when he was born, and the baby was sickly as a result.\nAt one point the outlook for Iyengar was grim, he suffered from malaria, tuberculosis, typhoid fever, and general malnutrition before he was out of his teen years, but the thing which made a difference was yoga.\nNot even touching his knees\nIt may be apocryphal, but supposedly the young Iyengar was not able to touch his toes in Uttanasana (forward bend) when he started. In fact, he could not even get much below his knees at the beginning.\nHis first teacher was his brother in law, who Iyengar acknowledged as his own guru. Iyengar said that he had only received perhaps fifteen days of tutelage from his brother-in-law but they were transforming to his own practice.\nBasics of Iyengar practice\nBecause Iyengar is credited with bringing yoga to the west, his style of yoga is possibly the most common or at least what we associate with a yoga practice. It focuses on the correct alignment of the body. Iyengar yoga approves of straps and blocks to help achieve the correct posture. Iyengar yoga also focuses on holding the posture sometimes for as long as thirty breathe cycles.\nApproach and beliefs\nIyengar\u2019s heritage was that of a Brahmin which made his political views and personal views tend towards the conservative. When it came to yoga he could not have been more egalitarian. While he understood where yoga came from, he firmly believed that it belonged to no one and should be available to everyone. He was one of the first who believed that yoga had a place for the sick and disabled.\nLondon 1960 and beyond\nThe swinging 60s saw yoga make its debut in London and then begin its inexorable popularity trek westwards. With his seminal book \u2018Light on Yoga\u2019 Iyengar became a guru to many. To this day those who care about detail about anatomy and alignment still practice how Iyengar taught.",

II: The Neutralization Test. A Study of Some Factors Involved in the Neutralizing Action of Immune Serum Against Poliomyelitis Virus\nThe authors describe their extended experience with neutralization tests in experimental poliomyelitis, which in large part consisted in 440 tests with one pool of virus and one pool of human convalescent serums. On the average, the outcome of one test out of six was irregular according to Aycock's analysis of the data, while one test out of four was irregular as judged by the criteria of Schaeffer and Muckenfuss. Thus they regard the present neutralization test as not practical for quantitative purposes and they consider that all attempts to define a minimal infective dose of virus have been unsuccessful. They reason that general epidemiologic principles but not specific immunologic problems have been elucidated by the test. They accept the widespread distribution of humoral neutralizing substances in man and a general immunologic relationship between all strains of poliomyelitic virus. They regard as unsettled the existence of specific immunologic differences among strains\nExperimental Poliomyelitis.

        "raw_content": "Posted by jessiedoeslife on December 6, 2016\nI\u2019ve been immersed in several useless wastes of energy lately that I\u2019ll be struggling to wrangle into order so that I can start 2017 off right. Fuck 2016, amirite?\nOne very cool thing that I\u2019ve started is the She Should Run online incubator which is one of the most exciting things to come of 2016.\nLesson 1: Develop Your Vision for Making an Impact\nI wrote about 6 versions of this before finally just releasing it into the ether of the internets. I had to let it go in order to move on. I wanted to share what I came up with though because it applies to my blog (it mentions my blog!) and I spoke from my heart 100% \u2013 as I feel I do in this here space as well. Please feel free to read at your leisure and comment if you can suggest any edits that may make this vision statement more powerful for a political campaign-type purpose (I\u2019m not running any time soon or anything, but I might as well start getting feedback now!).\nIn 2014 suicide was listed as the 3rd leading cause of death in youth ages 10 to 24 and 90% of those who died by suicide had an underlying mental illness.*\nIn 1999 at the age of 15 I attempted suicide because I could see no escape from the emotions that I felt trapped within for over 4 years. Because of this attempt I was committed to a psychiatric facility where instead of taking the opportunity to heal I continued to lie to my family, my treatment team, and worst of all, myself as I stood my ground in declaring that I was perfectly fine; there was nothing wrong with me. I grew up in a middle class nuclear family with as much privilege as you would imagine a Caucasian girl in the suburbs would have. Because I was aware of this privilege I struggled with asking for help when I needed it. Who was I, someone who had two working parents and a decent path to college to cry over what seemed like nothing at all? Who was I to refuse to get out of bed every morning when I had a bed in a good neighborhood? Who was I to be sad when I had nothing justifiable to be sad about? I felt so much shame not only for harboring a mental illness but also shame for not wanting to exist when I had so many more reasons that I should be grateful and not miserable.\nI suffered my bipolar disorder for 8 years after that suicide attempt before I would admit to a licensed professional that I might need help. That was 8 years of quitting jobs abruptly, arguing with partners over nothing on any given day, losing the respect of my friends, and allowing my self-worth to wan and wax with the cycles of my bipolar; all because of the shame and stigma that went with it in our culture. At 23 I began seeing a therapist and psychiatrist but it still wasn\u2019t until another 4 years later that I actually took my mental health care seriously. Finally, at the age of 27 I started treating my bipolar like a diabetic would their diabetes; monitoring my medications and my reactions to them, checking in regularly with my physicians, I recruited my close friends to be my support team, recording my symptoms and how they change, and taking it seriously as a life and death matter because it truly can be.\nI didn\u2019t talk openly about my bipolar to my friends, family, and previous partner until 3 years ago after I had sought out serious treatment. I was embarrassed that I knew something was wrong that entire time and had failed to do anything about it. I was embarrassed that I had a \u201cmental illness\u201d. I felt like I was now certifiably defective. In reality I had played into all of the damaging stigmas of mental illness and because of that I suffered needlessly for far too many years. It has taken me a very long time to embrace who I am, to openly admit my mental health struggles, and to say that I have something of value to offer my community because of these things.\nIn November of 2015 I joined Toastmasters in an effort to learn to speak publicly about mental health so that I can help make this a topic that we aren\u2019t ashamed of. I want someone who is struggling at the age of 15 to identify their feelings of total apathy and emptiness as possible depression and be comfortable talking to their school counselor about it. I want us to have conversations about mental health just as we do about physical health, because there should be as much shame about anxiety as there is about a broken arm, which is to say none.\nIn this past year I\u2019ve shared my story through social media and on a blog that I write somewhat regularly. I\u2019ve been messaged, retweeted, tagged, emailed, and continue to received heartfelt comments expressing gratitude for my candid approach to discussing my own struggles with mental health. There are people all over the world who have not yet found a way to get over the stigma of mental illness and so they continue self-medicating or hide their emotions. I was recently messaged by a reader who said that I inspired them to become more open about their issues with anxiety, and that despite their worries of being negatively received they\u2019ve gotten nothing but love and support from the people they\u2019ve opened up to.\nThis brings me to why I\u2019m here with She Should Run; I want to help give a voice to those who don\u2019t feel strong or confident enough to be their own voice yet. I want to empower those who feel they don\u2019t have a say to realize that they have much more than they know right now and they have the power to use it for the benefit of everyone in our community. I want to speak up for the homeless, the prison population, the addicts, and the veterans who might not realize that a part of their suffering could come from mental illness. I want to be a part of the governing body that decides to allocate resources to help repair this. I want to fight to end youth suicide due to mental illness with comprehensive mental health programs, especially in at-risk areas. I want to use whatever privilege I have to help those who have less.\n* Behavioral Health Trends in the United States: Results from the 2014 National Survey on Drug Use and Health by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA)\nbipolarfeminismhealthlifeMental Healthpoliticsshe should runwomen in politicswriting\nPrevious Post I want\nNext Post 2016 In Review \u2013 the Tumultuous First Half\npowerofenduring says:\nI love what you aspire to do \ud83d\ude42 I too have stepped up to share my mental illness via twitter and my blog. I haven\u2019t yet had the courage to open up to friends though..\nI told my college roommate who I\u2019m still very good friends with and she looked at me and said \u201cWell yeah, I could\u2019ve told you that!\u201d I almost smacked her! She went on to explain that with my months of just napping after class then weeks of sporadic spending and bad decisions the bipolar made sense. But now my friends are more understanding of my bad days and if I go missing for a few days \u2013 they text to make sure I\u2019m good and if I need anything. I would encourage you to tell your closest friends one at a time as you get more comfortable. If they\u2019re good people they\u2019ll still love and support you!\nMy husband said the \u201cwell I could\u2019ve told you that\u201d too and it pissed me off.",

        "raw_content": "The Miasma Endures\nAs the title suggests, I find myself remaining ensconced within the cloudiness of my mind. Managed to take some time earlier this week and delve deep into thoughts that I had pushed to the back-burner, tear them apart, and reconstruct them in a manner that is easier to process.\nFigured out a fair bit of why I think I come across to others as either \u201cneedy\u201d, \u201cinsecure\u201d, or \u201cimmature\u201d. I believe it has more to do with the inane questions and the constant requests for companionship that are the more frustrating parts to others. Most of the former situations are out-growths of self-esteem problems that I have endured for most of my life. I have constantly been alone or with a limited number of friends, and have been met with mostly either hostility or indifference when introduced to others. I suppose that it\u2019s a two-way street, given that my socialization skills leave a lot to be desired: I either talk people\u2019s ears off, or I\u2019m so awkwardly-silent that it drives them away fairly quickly. Larger part of the previous problem being that I never know what to say or ask about. I don\u2019t like boring people with the minutia of my life, and I become bored when others share theirs. Call me shallow, but I can\u2019t help it. I just can\u2019t become emotionally invested in someone else\u2019s day-to-day business unless it\u2019s something that directly interests me, such as their involvement with a project or company or activity that intrigues me to some level. Maybe I\u2019m just un-sociable in the grand scheme of things.\nSpent most of the last few days away from work goofing-around on the internet, climbing (and subsequently hurting my ankle), and making vague attempts at studying more HTML and reading other e-books. This process has been slow, painful, and fruitless\u2026 at least, thus far. This week completely took the wind out of every sail I had, including the hope that a friend of mine would be visiting from out-of-town. Some days, I just want to lay in bed and ignore the rest of the world.\nBack to studying.\nThe Miasmal Properties of Brain Foggishness\nJournal Entry, 6/12/2011\n2 thoughts on \u201cThe Miasma Endures\u201d\nI\u2019m curious. If you really do think something is wrong with you, have you thought of therapy? A professional opinion?\nI\u2019m not to trying to be rude. I\u2019m battling the same thing \u2013 thinking something is wrong \u2013 but I can\u2019t bring myself to therapy. Wondering if you\u2019re in the same boat.\n(If this was answered somewhere, I only read one-two newer posts before commenting. Sorry!)\nI\u2019ve been in therapy in the past, and it seemed to help during that part of my life. Would probably help me if I did go back, but I\u2019m constrained by time and money at the moment. That, and I\u2019m not quite sure that it\u2019s entirely something that therapy can resolve, to be entirely honest. I think it might just have more to do with me not being as focused or as driven as I should be.\nNo-one can wave a magic wand and make me feel any better about myself, and I am not only skeptical but even afraid of pills that can \u201cmake me happy\u201d like Prozac and its ilk. To me, it addresses symptoms, not problems.",

        "title": "Ghost Hunting Equipment That Might Save Your Life | Haunted New Harmony",
        "raw_content": "Ghost Hunting Equipment That Might Save Your Life\nMiranda always felt uneasy in her basement, especially near the doorway that linked the two rooms together. When she stood there, she felt as though someone was watching her, causing the hairs on the back of her neck to rise. After a while, she avoided the basement as much as possible, believing she had a ghost lurking down there.\nWhen she called me, I was happy to help. As a paranormal investigator, that\u2019s what I do. If I find signs of a haunting, I attempt to document the activity and then work with several psychic mediums to help me alleviate the anguish that is causing the haunting. The very first thing I do though is look for normal, natural reasons for the activity.\nMany people in the field call this process \u201cdebunking.\u201d While many investigators are eager to capture evidence they can share with their friends, serious investigators always rule out everything else before they label it \u201chaunted.\u201d In Miranda\u2019s case, not only did I debunk the haunting, but I might have saved her life in the process.\nAs someone who is sensitive to paranormal energy, I can tell in a matter of moments if a house is haunted. I hear a tone that is similar to ear ringing that alerts me, which is often followed by a clairvoyant \u201cmind picture\u201d that gives me more information. In Miranda\u2019s case, I came up empty. I wasn\u2019t picking up on anything supernatural to be causing her to feel the way she did.\nI\u2019m not one of those investigators who carries a suitcase full of equipment with me to investigations. I have a few carefully chosen pieces of equipment that I like, and I carry them in a small camera bag that I can slip over one shoulder. My favorite device is an EMF meter. I think of it as my debunking tool.\nAn EMF (Electromagnetic Field) detector is a device that measures electromagnetic energy, which is a type of low frequency energy that radiates from electrical and electronic devices. Paranormal investigators believe that ghosts can manipulate this energy as a sign of their presence and often use it as a communication tool. While I have seen this phenomena first-hand, my primary reason for using an EMF meter is to determine if the haunting is caused by something more dangerous than a ghost.\nThere are various manufacturers who make EMF meters. Some people prefer the Tri-fold Meter, because it measures a wider array of electromagnetic energy. Others like the ease of using a KII meter, which has lights instead of numbers to show the levels. I prefer my Mel Meter.\nThere is a touching story behind the creation of the Mel Meter. After Gary Galka\u2019s daughter Melissa died in a tragic automobile accident, his family began receiving signs that she was still nearby in spirit form. Already an accomplished engineer and the owner of D.A.S. Distribution, he designed a meter that he could use to communicate with her. He continues to donate a percentage of his profits to bereavement groups to help others get through the heart-breaking process of losing a loved one. This, along with the excellent customer service and equipment quality, makes me a loyal customer. I often think about Mel as I use my meter, wondering how many other lives she\u2019s saved through the device her father invented.\nAs I moved around the basement, the level on my Mel Meter stayed at zero, which means it wasn\u2019t detecting any electromagnetic energy fields, ghosts or otherwise.\n\u201cGood so far, \u201c I told her.\n\u201cCheck near that doorway,\u201d she told me from the safety of the other room. It was obvious from the expression on her face that she was still frightened of the basement.\nI moved to the doorway, watching in surprise as the numbers on my meter spiked upwards. By the time I got to the doorway, my EMF detector hit 200 mg (milligauss).\n\u201cOh wow!\u201d I moved around the edge of the doorway and found myself in front of an electrical panel. I didn\u2019t really need an EMF meter to see that it had been sloppily wired. It looked like a box of worms all screwed together. I called her over to show it to her.\n\u201cYou need to get this fixed immediately. It\u2019s a fire hazard,\u201d I told her. It was amazing that the house hadn\u2019t already burned down.\nMost people don\u2019t realize that electronic and electric devices that emit high levels of EMF energy can impact your health and well-being. People who are sensitive to the energy will often feel uneasy, as though they are being watched, and could even develop headaches and hallucinations if the EMF levels are high enough. Furthermore, EMF energy has also been linked to serious health concerns, including cancer, birth defects, Alzheimer\u2019s and depression, just to name a few.\nCommon items that frequently emit high levels of EMF waves include alarm clocks, refrigerators, microwave ovens and even Wi-Fi units. Research also suggests that EMF affects the pineal gland, which regulates the secretion of melatonin, which is a hormone that regulates our sleep, as well as being a natural cancer fighter. People with reduced amounts of melatonin are more susceptible to breast and ovarian cancer, prostate cancer and melanoma cancer. It has also been connected to issues with depression and even suicide.\nHow to Reduce Your Risk of High EMF\nCheck your house with a EMF meter and either remove or repair any issues you find.\nInsure that all electronic and electric devices are at least 3 feet away from your bed. This includes alarm clocks and cell phones.\nMake note of places in your home that make you feel uneasy. Inspect those areas for potential problems.\nDon\u2019t stand in front of the microwave while warming up food. The photo above was taken in front of my own microwave oven, which is only a year old. Older units will probably throw off even higher levels of EMF.\nAvoid using electric heat blankets unless you have tested them for EMF levels.\nAnother friend who suspected a haunting, had two faulty air purifying units in her living room. Each one emitted over 100 mg of EMF and were situated at either end of the room. After we discovered them, she removed them and the sensation of being watched went away immediately, as did her frequent headaches.\nIf you suspect that something in your house is generating high EMF energy, check it out immediately. The health concerns are far too great to ignore it.\nClick on the pictures below to learn more about her books.\nThis entry was posted in Paranormal, Uncategorized and tagged DAS Distribution, Electromagnetic field, Electromagnetic Frequencies, EMF Dangers, EMF Readings, Gary Galka, Mel Meter by jonimayhan.

However, the habit of blaming ethnic minorities for their own genetic conditions is unhelpful and has detrimental consequences for families and their children.\nThis article discusses some of the issues related to consanguineous unions and their link to congenital abnormalities and the perceived increase in learning disabilities and considers how genetic services for people in consanguineous unions might be improved.

        "title": "Sullivan\u2019s Travels (1941) \u2013 Journeys in Classic Film",
        "raw_content": "Posted June 30, 2015 by Kristen Lopez16 Comments on Sullivan\u2019s Travels (1941)\t1940s\nSullivan\u2019s Travels has an entry in so many Best Of or Top Ten lists that to name them would be ridiculous. With such an aura of legend around it I expected a lot and it delivered! Sullivan\u2019s Travels furthered my love of Veronica Lake (who I grow to enjoy with every film) and convinced me to seek out the rest of Preston Sturges films.\nHollywood producer John Sullivan (Joel McCrea) dreams of making a serious picture about the common man. With that goal in mind, he decides to live the life of a hobo and find out what poverty is truly like. Along the way he meets a failed actress known only as The Girl (Veronica Lake) who decides to join him in his quest. The duo find out the life of the poor is not all it\u2019s cracked up to be and discover love as well.\nOur opening titles\nI had shallow reasons for seeking this out. It\u2019s a classic everyone should see, but I was compelled by actress Veronica Lake. I adored her turn as the sly sorceress in I Married A Witch and wanted to see more of the girl with the peekaboo hair (although it saddens me hearing co-star McCrea hated working with her, as did several other co-stars). I\u2019d also decided it was time to see a Preston Sturges film. Between him and Ernst Lubitsch, they\u2019re the two names I keep hearing in the world of classic cinema. Oddly enough, Lake\u2019s character dreams of meeting Lubitsch too, so it\u2019s almost a \u201ckill two birds\u201d type of situation.\nI just can\u2019t help putting in pictures of her\u2026.\nAccording to Robert Osborne, Sullivan\u2019s Travels premiered just a few weeks after the US entered WWII. Talk about perfect timing! Sturges, who directed and wrote the screenplay, creates a satire discussing the role of art in attempting to make statements on politics, poverty and the like. How can Hollywood fat cats make films about human suffering when the entire industry is based on millions of dollars spent and earned? The Hollywood elite would do well to watch Sullivan\u2019s Travels today, where the need to break out with a $100 million dollar opening weekend is the industry end all, be all. During the time of the film\u2019s release, young men were dying and women were struggling to make ends meet, leaving Sullivan in a quandary. How does he make light comedy and evoke laughter when people are hurting (the film seems to be concerned with the Depression as opposed to the war outright)? The film does an expert job of blending the comedy with the knowledge that the US is in a dangerous situation.\nThe satire is sharp and shows not only the stupidity of the Hollywood executives but the duality of people in general. Sullivan wants to make serious pictures, but he\u2019s constantly told to \u201cinclude a little sex.\u201d Sullivan says he knows it\u2019s needed \u201cbut I don\u2019t want to press it!\u201d The studio tries to dissuade Sullivan from making his serious film (O Brother, Where Art Thou) by telling him people who see art pictures are Communists (a claim I\u2019d expect to see made about films today). Again, it\u2019s obvious Sturges has met executives like this. Art pictures today are generally relegated to small theaters, and those who go out of their way to see them are \u201chipsters\u201d and the like. Wow, Sullivan\u2019s Travels has aged really well!\nEveryone thrown around the bus\nSullivan is obsessed with discovering the world of the common man. His motives aren\u2019t malicious or meant to mock; he\u2019s genuinely curious, and yet \u201cpeople always like what they know nothing about.\u201d As a character, Sullivan is like every new generation. He\u2019s grown up not knowing hardship or raising a family on meager wages. Things like the Depression are stories old grandmothers tell that you never take seriously. What I find interesting is how this movie almost seems to attack earlier screwball comedies about poverty. The closest comparison being the 1936 film My Man Godfrey, a similar film about the rich discovering the hardships of the poor. The title character, played by William Powell, is later discovered to be a rich man. Numerous characters tell Sullivan that no one wants to see the truth about the poor, they want idealized images. When someone asks Sullivan what the point of The Girl is to his life he says \u201cthere\u2019s always a girl\u201d in these movies, returning to the love stories central to these films. Struges crafts a film, not only aware of its role as a screwball comedy, but that calls out other comedies for not going further with the message they\u2019re presenting! I enjoy how the film uses every type of comedy, from its comedy of manners plot to the use of slapstick and verbal sparring. One of the funniest scenes has to be Sullivan attempting to lose his tail of reporters and publicity hounds following him in a bus. Speeding ahead of them in a car, the bus tosses and turns, leaving the poor chef in the back to get the brunt of the pain, complete with being slapped in the face with an oven door and having his head burst through the roof.\nOnce Sullivan loses the tail he ends up in a small town under the benevolence of two kind, albeit man-hungry, old ladies who take him to a movie theater where Sullivan doesn\u2019t just get a taste for relying on the kindness of strangers, he learns a lesson in normality. He sits in a crowded theater with people chewing, babies crying, a scene far removed from the quite and expansive movie theaters of his studio. The man doesn\u2019t just meet the common man, he becomes the common man, understanding life outside of Hollywood and discovering what a small bubble it is. Sullivan\u2019s life becomes a movie where he isn\u2019t in control. Case in point, when he tries to escape from the old lady\u2019s house, but she\u2019s locked him inside to keep him there and the only open door leads to her room! The audience immediately return to the \u201cinclude a little sex\u201d comment because Sullivan definitely realizes this isn\u2019t the sex the studios (or he) has in mind! This is my first Joel McCrea film and he\u2019s a man of many talents. According to Robert Osborne, McCrea did every genre and he\u2019s great here as the straight man opposite the crazy characters around him. I rooted for him to succeed in discovering the common man, and for him to realize that, ultimately, the story he wants to tell just isn\u2019t right for him.\nWhen Sullivan finally meets The Girl the true plot takes off, making you realize the poverty storyline is almost a MacGuffin masking the love story. The Girl takes a shine to Sullivan, offering to buy him breakfast when they meet. The producer sees the shattered dreams of Hollywood in the Girl\u2019s eyes as she recounts her \u201caudition\u201d and meeting a lecherous casting director; Sullivan seems saddened by how tawdry the business is. The Girl recounts this story like a comedy film itself, with the coy voice and the questions she obviously knows the answer to. \u201cIs that your hand on my knee?\u201d She\u2019s an actress and she knows how to act, but it\u2019s obvious no one wants to hear her true thoughts. Veronica Lake is just darling in this movie, continuing to play a character walking the line between child-like innocence and sex kitten. In several cases throughout the film you believe she\u2019s far more spoiled than Sullivan. Sure, she believes she can help him when she tells him \u201cyou [Sullivan] don\u2019t know how to get a meal, you don\u2019t know how to keep a secret, you can\u2019t even get out of town\u201d (that\u2019s right, Sullivan ends up right back in Hollywood). The two end up on the road together but the Girl is whiny and irritating, pouting when she doesn\u2019t get what she wants and constantly saying \u201cI\u2019m hungry\u201d (well what\u2019d you expect, you\u2019re poor).\nA gorgeous image!\nThe relationship between her and Sullivan is one of mutual adoration; she needs him, attached to him like a little girl to her father. She wants to \u201cgo where you go\u201d and doesn\u2019t know anything else. his little kid dynamic is helped by the physical fact McCrea was over six feet and Lake a little over four feet, so their height difference is emphasized. Lake is always sitting on McCrea\u2019s lap and holding on to him or, like a petulant child, pushing him into his swimming pool (when the Girl is told to go back home she even asks, \u201cCan I still come over and push you in the pool?\u201d). On the other hand, Sullivan discovers honesty with the Girl. She tells him, truthfully, what she thinks about his work. When he mentions a movie she did like, she makes a point of saying she liked it despite it being \u201cstupid.\u201d They present a strong contrast in temperament and character that it\u2019s hard believing the two didn\u2019t get along. I want to give special mention to the scene where the Girl believes Sullivan is dead (a lot happens in between, so you\u2019ll have to watch the film to find out why she thinks this). Veronica Lake sitting in a chair with a few tears coming out of her eyes is by far the most beautiful image I\u2019ve seen.\nI had to fight the urge to just put in Veronica Lake pictures\nA lot happens to Sullivan, for a 90 minute movie a lot happens period, but he finds a way to become the common man, ending up in a labor camp where no one knows him. He\u2019s presented before a judge and the effect of hazy lighting mimics the nightmare sequences from the films of that decade. Sullivan ends up in a movie of his own, discovering exactly what he\u2019s wanted to convey through cinema. He ends up seeing a Disney short, odd considering Disney was its own studio and this was an MGM film (although sold to Universal later on, Disney\u2019s main competitor), and discovers that laughter is what helps people cope with the bad things in life. It\u2019s been awhile since a film left me with a smile on my face, but I adored the message here; it\u2019s not preachy, it\u2019s not sickeningly sweet, it\u2019s simply that in dark times we need a light at the end of the tunnel\u2026we need a laugh.\nSullivan\u2019s Travels is a film that\u2019s aged extremely well. I had to hold myself back from comparing it alongside today\u2019s film studios and mores which proves that it\u2019s timeless. The acting is amazing, especially from the stunning Veronica Lake, and there\u2019s so much packed into a 90-minute package.

I feel like it could have been harder hitting actually, but it has some really great scenes, notably the early scene with his producers and the cinema scene at the end that makes him appreciate the value of mere entertainment.\nI\u2019m excited now to compare the two, I\u2019m leaning more towards enjoying Sullivan more already. The second half does feel a tad too gloomy and ludicrous considering what\u2019s been established before, there\u2019s a disparity there for sure but I think that first half keeps the film from falling into melodrama.\nGood review. My only problem with this film (and \u201cproblem\u201d is too strong a word) is that Lake wasn\u2019t remotely believable as a boy, but it\u2019s the kind of thing you just have to go with. I was also amused by seeing the name of the film he\u2019s working on being O Brother Where Art Thou, which is my favorite Coen Brothers movie. They obviously took the title from here.\nYeah Lake was totally unconvincing as a boy! If this were a different type of film I don\u2019t even want to think what would have happened to her character. I did actually get inspired to watch this after George Clooney quoted it in a roundtable and mentioned what an influence it was to classic film. Hate to say it but if Clooney says it\u2019s worth it, it must be!\nPingback: The Month in Film: June 2012 | Journeys in Classic Film\nPingback: My Month in Film: July 2013 |\nPingback: The Palm Beach Story (1942) |\nPingback: Hail the Conquering Hero (1944) |\nPingback: The TCM Top Twelve for September 2016 | Journeys in Classic Film\nPingback: Illeana Douglas Talks About Funnies Ladies (Including Herself!) \u2013 Journeys in Classic Film\nJourneys in Classic Film Sullivan\u2019s Travels (1941)",

        "raw_content": "Does the Mind\u2019s System Reflect a Judeo-Christian View of Human Nature?\n\u2248 Comments Off on Does the Mind\u2019s System Reflect a Judeo-Christian View of Human Nature?\nbehaviorism, cognition, Freudianism, human nature, neuroscience, Psychiatry, psychology, science, Sigmund Freud, social constructionism, Steven Pinker, The Blank Slate: The Modern Denial of Human Nature, the brain, the mind\n\u201cThe mind is modular, with many parts cooperating to generate a train of thought or an organized action.\nIt has distinct information-processing systems for filtering out distractions, learning skills, controlling the body, remembering facts, holding information temporarily, and storing and executing rules. Cutting across these data-processing systems are mental faculties (sometimes called multiple intelligences) dedicated to different kinds of content, such as language, number, space, tools, and living things.[\u2026]\nMore generally, the interplay of mental systems can explain how people can entertain revenge fantasies that they never act on, or can commit adultery only in their hearts. In this way the theory of human nature coming out of the cognitive revolution has more in common with the Judeo-Christian theory of human nature, and with the psychoanalytic theory proposed by Sigmund Freud, than with behaviorism, social constructionism, and other versions of the Blank Slate. Behavior is not just emitted or elicited, nor does it come directly out of culture or society. It comes from an internal struggle among mental modules with differing agendas and goals.\nThe idea from the cognitive revolution that the mind is a system of universal, generative computational modules obliterates the way that debates on human nature have been framed for centuries. It is now simply misguided to ask whether humans are flexible or programmed, whether behavior is universal or varies across cultures, whether acts are learned or innate, whether we are essentially good or essentially evil. Humans behave flexibly because they are programmed: their minds are packed with combinatorial software that can generate an unlimited set of thoughts and behavior. Behavior may vary across cultures, but the design of the mental programs that generate it need not vary. Intelligent behavior is learned successfully because we have innate systems that do the learning. And all people may have good and evil motives, but not everyone may translate them into behavior in the same way.\u201d\nFrom Steven Pinker\u2019s epochal The Blank Slate: The Modern Denial of Human Nature.\nMore from SP:\nOn the F-word\nAbout Half of You Have Violent Genes\nbiology, crime, David Eagleman, genes, genetics, Incognito: The Secret Lives of the Brain, psychology, the brain, the mind\n\u201cMany of us like to believe that all adults possess the same capacity to make sound choices. It\u2019s a nice idea, but it\u2019s wrong\u2026\nWho you even have the possibility to be starts well before your childhood \u2014 it starts at conception. If you think genes don\u2019t matter for how people behave, consider this amazing fact: if you are a carrier of a particular set of genes, your probability of committing a violent crime goes up by eight hundred and eighty-two percent. Here are statistics from the U.S. Department of Justice, which I\u2019ve broken down into two groups: crimes committed by the population that carries this specific set of genes and by the population that does not:\nAverage Number of Violent Crimes Committed\nAnnually in the United States\nOffense Carrying the genes Not carrying the genes\nAggravated assault 3,419,000 435,000\nHomicide 14,196 1,468\nArmed robbery 2,051,000 157,000\nSexual assault 442,000 10,000\nIn other words, if you carry these genes, you\u2019re eight times more likely to commit aggravated assault, ten times more likely to commit murder, thirteen times more likely to commit armed robbery and forty-four times more likely to commit sexual assault.\nAbout one half of the human population carries these genes, while the other half does not, making the first half much more dangerous indeed. It\u2019s not even a contest. The overwhelming majority of prisoners carry these genes, as do 98.4 percent of those on death row. It seems clear enough that the carriers are strongly predisposed to a different type of behavior \u2013 and everyone is coming to the table equally equipped in terms of drives and behavior.\nWe\u2019ll return to these genes in a moment, but first I want to tie the issue back to the main point we\u2019ve seen throughout this book: we are not the ones driving the boat of our behavior, at least not nearly as much as we believe. Who we are runs well below the surface of our conscious access, and the details reach back in time to before our birth, when the meeting of a sperm and egg granted us with certain attributes and not others. Who we can be begins with our molecular blueprints \u2013 a series of alien codes penned in invisibly small strings of amino acids \u2013 well before we have anything to do with it. We are a product of our inaccessible, microscopic history.\nBy the way, as regards that dangerous set of genes, you\u2019ve probably heard of them. They are summarized as the Y chromosome. If you\u2019re a carrier, we call you a male.\u201d\nFrom David Eagleman\u2019s eye-opening and highly digestible Incognito: The Secret Lives of the Brain. If you\u2019re looking for a layman\u2019s guide to the mind, fan through Incognito.\nThe photograph is of Eagleman at his laboratory and office in my hometown of Houston, Texas.\nCheck out a philosophical and a fictional work of Eagleman\u2019s below:\nWhat Is Happening When We See Someone Die?\nIn the Afterlife You Relive All Your Experiences",

        "title": "The 5 Best Questions You Can Ask to Better Understand Your Clients",
        "raw_content": "How well do you know your clients? Every successful Key Account Manager knows that to nourish and grow a relationship with clients, you need to know them better than their other vendors do. Through this understanding, you\u2019ll be able to claim the coveted title of \u201cTrusted Advisor,\u201d and they\u2019ll have a much more difficult time leaving your company for another.\nWith this in mind, we\u2019ve found that you can always understand your clients better. Finding out the answers to the questions that keep your customers up at night can help you provide better services, maintain stronger relationships, and make you an all-around better Key Account Manager.\nLet\u2019s discuss some of the benefits of asking your clients the right questions:\nSure, you probably already know your customers\u2019 surface-level needs and goals, but do you know what keeps them up at night? Not many account managers will go through the trouble of \u201cgoing deeper\u201d and delving into their clients\u2019 wants and needs and will instead shift all of their focus to the immediate sale.\nKey Account Managers don\u2019t follow this principle, and you want to make sure that you know your account\u2019s needs inside and out. With targeted, specific questions, you should be able to shed some light on the problems and needs the client wasn\u2019t even aware of.\nWhat if your client is thinking about switching vendors? What if they need to reduce their usual order by half? These are questions that you need answers to, and if you continue to operate off of assumptions that your relationship is running perfectly, you could run into devastating problems.\nBy asking questions about your clients\u2019 needs, you\u2019ll be able to uncover hidden risks, and take steps to ensure they never become a problem. Stay one step ahead of your clients\u2019 expectations and needs by getting to the truth.\nMaintain Bridges\nFinally, you want to know your relationships better, because should the sponsor ever decide to leave, you can still maintain the account. In many cases, the primary contact for your account might leave for a different job. If you haven\u2019t taken the time to understand the account through and through, including the other faces and names associated with it, should your main account leave, you\u2019ll be stuck at square one.\nNow that we\u2019ve discussed the reasons for wanting to understand your key accounts better let\u2019s get into the top five questions you should try asking during your next Voice of Customer interview.\n1) \u201cTwo years from today, if we were looking back at this project, how would you define success?\u201d\nNot everyone defines success in the same way. Just as each of your organization\u2019s key accounts might specialize in different industries, they\u2019ll have different goals as well. The thing is, if you want to help them achieve their goals through your products and services, you need to know their definition.\nTwo years can be a long time for a regular account, but since these are key accounts, you\u2019ll be banking that they\u2019ll stick around for that duration and beyond. With this time period in mind, your contact might have a hard time coming up with a concrete answer to this question. That\u2019s okay!\nThe goal is not to have a specific numerical value (although that could be helpful) but in actuality, you just need to know precisely how they see the relationship progressing as time moves forward.\n2) \u201cWhat risks are there to this project?\u201d\nThis question can be asked at the start of the relationship or any time after. Risks and opportunities come and go, and chances are they will change throughout the course of the relationship.\nFor this reason, it\u2019s always a good idea to know, from the client\u2019s perspective, what their worst-case scenarios are. By understanding the things that they not only hope will happen, but their worst fears as well, you can create an account plan that mitigates and minimizes their risks.\n3) \u201cIs there anyone on the team (or in the company) who might want this project to fail?\u201d\nThis question might seem a little bit out of the ordinary but the answers the client might provide could surprise you. While it\u2019s always best to assume that everyone within your client\u2019s organization will be entirely on board with the work that you\u2019re doing, office politics still play a role in everything. There might be people vying for the client\u2019s position, and seeing them (and your project) fail could allow them the opportunity to take on that role.\nAsk your client directly, tell them that their answers and opinions are confidential, and it\u2019s just a hypothetical scenario. Using the answer that they give, you can develop a better understanding of the environment over at their organization.\n4) \u201cHow can I best support you?\u201d\nEveryone needs a helping hand every once in a while, and even if you have worked with a client for years, they might need extra support to make their jobs easier. Some account managers might fall into a false sense of normalcy and assume that everything is going smoothly. If you want to grow and nourish the relationship for years to come, you should consistently seek new opportunities to help the client.\nSo, whether you\u2019ve worked with the client for a few months or five years, always try to find a new way to support them in their work.\n\u201c5) \u201cHow are you going to be evaluated?\u201d\nThis final question covers the topic of making your contact the \u201coffice hero.\u201d Everyone wants to feel like they single-handedly solved their organization\u2019s problems, and if you do your job well, you can help them get there.\nSo, for this question, you want to determine which metrics and merits matter the most to your contact. How will their bosses judge their performance? How does the management team of their organization evaluate the success of a project? With these answers, you can adjust your strategy to meet their personal goals.\nTags: understand your customer, Voice of Customer\nhttps://kapta.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/The-5-Best-Questions-You-Can-Ask-to-Better-Understand-Your-Clients-1.jpeg 3350 5815 Lesley Poladsky https://kapta.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/logo340x156.png Lesley Poladsky2018-08-16 16:40:102018-09-12 08:23:40The 5 Best Questions You Can Ask to Better Understand Your Clients",

It should be mandatory watching for everyone who is working in any sort of caring capacity \u2013 Aged Care, Community and Home Care and Acute Care, as they all will come across this, or a version of this at some stage in their working lives. It should also be on the curriculum for nursing and medical students \u2013 it makes such an impression that I am sure the message will remain with them. Busy month for us all! Look after yourself.\nThanks Wendy\u2026 and yes, should be viewed by everyone. x\nPretty cool what a bit of thought, action and caring can do to change someone\u2019s life of struggle\u2026It really does all begin with awareness! If people don\u2019t know what someone else is is going through how can they help them? Thanks for sharing Kate\u2026.Happy weekend\u2026..Blessings and love\u2026VK\nHappy weekend, and love to you too VK \u2026 xox\nI\u2019m constantly amazed at the way that you use your energy to educate and explain. It\u2019s this attitude that changes the world for the better. I am very, very proud to be your husband. xxxxxxxx\n\u2026and I am very very proud to be your wife, and very glad you will be around a bit longer! xoxox\nMy darkest fear of not having sight would wrap into the loss of words beyond my imagination.\nAgree completely! I had to wear double eye patches for 10 days after an accident in 1981, and decided after having no sight then, it wouldn\u2019t be so bad\u2026 but the fear of losing all of my words is seriously terrifying\u2026",

        "raw_content": "Before going into the subject of this afternoon, will you allow me to say a few words of thanks, now that I have the opportunity? I have lived three years amongst you. I have travelled over nearly the whole of America, and as I am going back from here to my own country, it is meet that I should take this opportunity of expressing my gratitude in this Athens of America. When I first came to this country, after a few days I thought I would be able to write a book on the nation. But after three years' stay here, I find I am not able to write even a page. On the other hand, I find in travelling in various countries that beneath the surface differences that we find in dress and food and little details of manners, man is man all the world over; the same wonderful human nature is everywhere represented. Yet there are certain characteristics, and in a few words I would like to sum up all my experiences here. In this land of America, no question is asked about a man's peculiarities. If a man is a man, that is enough, and they take him into their hearts, and that is one thing I have never seen in any other country in the world.\nI came here to represent a philosophy of India, which is called the Vedanta philosophy. This philosophy is very, very ancient; it is the outcome of that mass of ancient Aryan literature known by the name of the Vedas. It is, as it were, the very flower of all the speculations and experiences and analyses, embodied in that mass of literature \u2014 collected and culled through centuries. This Vedanta philosophy has certain peculiarities. In the first place, it is perfectly impersonal; it does not owe its origin to any person or prophet: it does not build itself around one man as a centre. Yet it has nothing to say against philosophies which do build themselves around certain persons. In later days in India, other philosophies and systems arose, built around certain persons \u2014 such as Buddhism, or many of our present sects. They each have a certain leader to whom they owe allegiance, just as the Christians and Mohammedans have. But the Vedanta philosophy stands at the background of all these various sects, and there is no fight and no antagonism between the Vedanta and any other system in the world.\nOne principle it lays down \u2014 and that, the Vedanta claims, is to be found in every religion in the world \u2014 that man is divine, that all this which we see around us is the outcome of that consciousness of the divine. Everything that is strong, and good, and powerful in human nature is the outcome of that divinity, and though potential in many, there is no difference between man and man essentially, all being alike divine. There is, as it were, an infinite ocean behind, and you and I are so many waves, coming out of that infinite ocean; and each one of us is trying his best to manifest that infinite outside. So, potentially, each one of us has that infinite ocean of Existence, Knowledge, and Bliss as our birthright, our real nature; and the difference between us is caused by the greater or lesser power to manifest that divine. Therefore the Vedanta lays down that each man should be treated not as what he manifests, but as what he stands for. Each human being stands for the divine, and, therefore, every teacher should be helpful, not by condemning man, but by helping him to call forth the divinity that is within him.\nIt also teaches that all the vast mass of energy that we see displayed in society and in every plane of action is really from inside out; and, therefore, what is called inspiration by other sects, the Vedantist begs the liberty to call the expiration of man. At the same time it does not quarrel with other sects; the Vedanta has no quarrel with those who do not understand this divinity of man. Consciously or unconsciously, every man is trying to unfold that divinity.\nMan is like an infinite spring, coiled up in a small box, and that spring is trying to unfold itself; and all the social phenomena that we see the result of this trying to unfold. All the competitions and struggles and evils that we see around us are neither the causes of these unfoldments, nor the effects. As one of our great philosophers says \u2014 in the case of the irrigation of a field, the tank is somewhere upon a higher level, and the water is trying to rush into the field, and is barred by a gate. But as soon as the gate is opened, the water rushes in by its own nature; and if there is dust and dirt in the way, the water rolls over them. But dust and dirt are neither the result nor the cause of this unfolding of the divine nature of man. They are coexistent circumstances, and, therefore, can be remedied.\nNow, this idea, claims the Vedanta, is to be found in all religions, whether in India or outside of it; only, in some of them, the idea is expressed through mythology, and in others, through symbology. The Vedanta claims that there has not been one religious inspiration, one manifestation of the divine man, however great, but it has been the expression of that infinite oneness in human nature; and all that we call ethics and morality and doing good to others is also but the manifestation of this oneness. There are moments when every man feels that he is one with the universe, and he rushes forth to express it, whether he knows it or not. This expression of oneness is what we call love and sympathy, and it is the basis of all our ethics and morality. This is summed up in the Vedanta philosophy by the celebrated aphorism, Tat Tvam Asi, \"Thou art That\".\nTo every man, this is taught: Thou art one with this Universal Being, and, as such, every soul that exists is your soul; and every body that exists is your body; and in hurting anyone, you hurt yourself, in loving anyone, you love yourself. As soon as a current of hatred is thrown outside, whomsoever else it hurts, it also hurts yourself; and if love comes out from you, it is bound to come back to you. For I am the universe; this universe is my body. I am the Infinite, only I am not conscious of it now; but I am struggling to get this consciousness of the Infinite, and perfection will be reached when full consciousness of this Infinite comes.\nAnother peculiar idea of the Vedanta is that we must allow this infinite variation in religious thought, and not try to bring everybody to the same opinion, because the goal is the same. As the Vedantist says in his poetical language, \"As so many rivers, having their source in different mountains, roll down, crooked or straight, and at last come into the ocean \u2014 so, all these various creeds and religions, taking their start from different standpoints and running through crooked or straight courses, at last come unto THEE.\"\nAs a manifestation of that, we find that this most ancient philosophy has, through its influence, directly inspired Buddhism, the first missionary religion of the world, and indirectly, it has also influenced Christianity, through the Alexandrians, the Gnostics, and the European philosophers of the middle ages. And later, influencing German thought, it has produced almost a revolution in the regions of philosophy and psychology. Yet all this mass of influence has been given to the world almost unperceived. As the gentle falling of the dew at night brings support to all vegetable life, so, slowly and imperceptibly, this divine philosophy has been spread through the world for the good of mankind. No march of armies has been used to preach this religion. In Buddhism, one of the most missionary religions of the world, we find inscriptions remaining of the great Emperor Asoka \u2014 recording how missionaries were sent to Alexandria, to Antioch, to Persia, to China, and to various other countries of the then civilised world. Three hundred years before Christ, instructions were given them not to revile other religions: \"The basis of all religions is the same, wherever they are; try to help them all you can, teach them all you can, but do not try to injure them.\"\nThus in India there never was any religious persecution by the Hindus, but only that wonderful reverence, which they have for all the religions of the world. They sheltered a portion of the Hebrews, when they were driven out of their own country; and the Malabar Jews remain as a result. They received at another time the remnant of the Persians, when they were almost annihilated; and they remain to this day, as a part of us and loved by us, as the modern Parsees of Bombay. There were Christians who claimed to have come with St. Thomas, the disciple of Jesus Christ; and they were allowed to settle in India and hold their own opinions; and a colony of them is even now in existence in India. And this spirit of toleration has not died out. It will not and cannot die there.\nThis is one of the great lessons that the Vedanta has to teach. Knowing that, consciously or unconsciously, we are struggling to reach the same goal, why should we be impatient? If one man is slower than another, we need not be impatient, we need not curse him, or revile him. When our eyes are opened and the heart is purified, the work of the same divine influence, the unfolding of the same divinity in every human heart, will become manifest; and then alone we shall be in a position to claim the brotherhood of man.\nWhen a man has reached the highest, when he sees neither man nor woman, neither sect nor creed, nor colour, nor birth, nor any of these differentiations, but goes beyond and finds that divinity which is the real man behind every human being \u2014 then alone he has reached the universal brotherhood, and that man alone is a Vedantist.\nSuch are some of the practical historical results of the Vedanta.",

Officially, we still have a few weeks before the end of the Summer Scavenger Hunt, and I have two items left to find. Fortunately, Mary-Lou offered up a couple alternate items which may be easier to find than the last two I need. We'll see. I have posted earlier finds here, here, and here.\nFor August, I have three new offerings and one more for Mellow Yellow:\nOn our weekend trip to the Adirondacks, I found two more items.: #12 Bells and #16 Something that Could Be From a Favorite Book or Movie. Both photos of bells came from the Old Forge Hardware, one of Tracy's favorite haunts.\nAt the Wild Center in Tupper Lake, we found this web which immediately made me think of my very favorite book from childhood, Charlotte's Web.\nLast, #15, Out of the Blue--gorgeous hydrangeas.\nOne of our neighbors has this sign posted. It's so sad that such a sign is necessary in this country, but it speaks to one of my biggest concerns--the lack of tolerance and lack of civility in our country.\nThanks, as always to Mary-Lou for creating the hunt and hosting the link-ups!",

        "title": "June 2016 \u2013 What We Learned About the U.S. Economy Last Week",
        "raw_content": "Business Activity Was Rocky This Spring: What We Learned During the Week of June 20 \u2013 24\nAs the world considers the economic and political implications of the Brexit vote, we learned last week that U.S. economic activity lagged during the spring. Here are the 5 things we learned from U.S. economic data released during the week ending June 24.\nTwo indicators of economic activity show soft business conditions this spring. The Chicago Fed National Activity Index (CFNAI), a monthly index based on 85 economic indicators that tracks overall economic activity, dropped 56-basis points during May to a reading of -0.51. While all 4 major categories of index components deteriorated from their April readings, the bulk of decline was associated with production/income-related economic indicators. These measures made a negative contribution to the CFNAI of 32-basis points (a 45-basis point drop from their April contribution of +0.13). The other 3 major categories of index components also losing stream during May were: consumption/housing (off 7-basis points to -0.09), employment (off 3-basis points to -0.09) and sales/orders (off a basis point to -0.01). The CFNAI\u2019s 3-month moving average shed 11-basis points to -0.36. This was the moving average\u2019s lowest reading in nearly 4 years. Nevertheless, the reading is not indicative of an U.S. economy that was in a recession since it remained above -0.70. Rather, the moving average reading of -0.36 is consistent with below average economic growth.\nThe Conference Board\u2019s Leading Economic Index lost 2/10ths of a point during May to a reading of 123.7. The index was unchanged from 6 months earlier and was up by only 1.2% from a year earlier. 6 of 10 components made a positive contribution to May\u2019s leading index reading, including the interest rate spread, factory orders for nondefense/non aircraft capital goods, and building permits. The main drag was a bump up in 1st time unemployment insurance claims. The coincident index was unchanged for the month and was up 1.9% from a year earlier. 3 of the coincident index\u2019s 4 components improved during May. The lagging index added 3/10ths of a point during the month to 121.5 (+3.8% vs. May 2015), as 5 of 7 index components enjoyed gains. The press release said the index readings suggest \u201cmoderate\u201d economic growth over the coming months but warns that \u201cvolatility in financial markets and a moderating outlook in labor markets could pose downside risks to growth.\u201d\nSales of previously owned homes inched ahead to a post-recession high during May. Existing home sales were a seasonally adjusted annualized rate of 5.53 million units during the month, up 1.8% from April, up 4.5% from a year earlier, and the fastest sales pace since February 2007. According to the National Association of Realtors, sales of previously owned homes improved in 3 of 4 Census regions during the month: West (+5.4%), South (+4.6%), and Northeast (+4.1%). Sales slowed 6.5% in the Midwest. There were 2.15 million homes available for sale at the end of May, up 1.4% from April but off 5.7% from May 2015. The resulting tight 4.7 month supply led to a 4.7% year-to-year increase in the median sales price of previously owned homes to $239,700. While warning that first-time homebuyers were \u201cstill struggling to enter the market,\u201d NAR\u2019s press release did predict that home sales \u201chave the potential to mostly maintain their current pace through the summer.\u201d\nEven with a drop in May, new home sales also remained their near post-recession highs. The Census Bureau reports that new home sales were at a seasonally adjusted annualized rate of 551,000 units. Despite being down 6.0% for the month, new home sales were 8.7% above their year ago pace. Sales slowed in 3 of 4 regions\u2014the Northeast, West, and South\u2014but improved in the Midwest. 3 of 4 Census regions\u2014the Northeast, Midwest, and South had positive year-to-year sales gains. Homebuilders had 244,000 homes on the market at the end of May (+1.2% vs. April 2016, +16.2% vs. May 2015), the equivalent to a 5.3 month supply.\nDurable goods orders stumbled in May following 2 monthly gains. The Census Bureau estimates the value of new orders for durable manufactured goods declined 2.2% to a seasonally adjusted $230.7 billion (+1.5% vs. May 2015). Transportation goods orders fell 5.6% during the month as orders for vehicles (-2.8%) and defense aircraft (-34.1%) both slowed. Civilian aircraft orders grew 1.0% in May following the previous month\u2019s 69.4% surge. Orders for non-transportation durable goods declined 0.3% during the month following gains of 0.3% and 0.5% during the 2 previous months. While orders for communications equipment jumped 4.7%, orders dropped for computers (-2.5%), primary metals (-1.4%), and fabricated metals (-0.3%). Shipments declined for the 3rd time over the past 4 months with a 0.2% drop. Non-transportation goods shipments slowed 0.3%. The value of unfilled orders expanded for the 4th time in 5 months with a 0.2% increase while inventories of durable goods contracted for the 10th time in the past 11 months with a 0.3% decline.\nOne survey finds consumers are slightly less optimistic about economic conditions. The University of Michigan Index of Consumer Sentiment came in at a seasonally adjusted reading of 93.5 for June, off 8/10ths of a point from the preliminary June reading released a few week ago, 1.2 points from May, and 2.6 point from a year earlier. The drop from May was the result of a weaker outlook for future economic business conditions, with an index reading 82.4 being off 2.5 points from May and 5.4 points from a year earlier. The present conditions index edged up 9/10ths of a point during the month to 110.8 (+1.9 points vs. June 2015). The press release stated that consumers do not anticipate a recession but they \u201cincreasingly expect a slower pace of growth in the year ahead.\u201d Further, the results are consistent with GDP growth of less than 2.0% and real consumer spending increased 2.6% for all of 2016.\n\u2013 Jobless Claims (week ending June 18, 2016, First-Time Claims, seasonally adjusted): 259,000 (-18,000 vs. previous week; -13,000 vs. the same week a year earlier). 4-week moving average: 267,000 (-2.6% vs. the same week a year earlier).\nEconomics, Macroeconomics, This week's economic data Consumer Sentiment, Home Sales, Housing, Macroeconomics, Manufacturing Leave a comment",

More than 20,000 children present to the emergency department each year. Asthma is the most common reason for admission to the John Hunter Children's Hospital. Other conditions include accidents, ear diseases and gastroenterological problems.\nOther specialities treated include cystic fibrosis, diabetes, oncology (cancer) babies born with cleft palates and brain injury rehabilitation. There is a specialist paediatric allied health service, with occupational therapy, speech therapy, dietetics, physiotherapy and social work.\nAll clinical staff working with the John Hunter Children's Hospital are trained in paediatrics.\nKids with Cancer Foundation was there in 1999 providing funding to John Hunter's new oncology unit: Oncology and haematology services have been provided at John Hunter Children's Hospital since 1999 when the first paediatric oncology/haematology specialist was appointed.\nThe services provides diagnosis, treatment and follow-up for children and young people up to and including 18 years of age with all forms of paediatric cancer, including solid tumours and lymphoreticular malignancies.\nIn addition, specialist paediatric haematology consultation, review and management is available for children and young people with non-malignant haematological conditions.\nPalliative Care has been defined as \"patient and family centred care that optimises quality of life by anticipating, preventing and treating suffering. Palliative care throughout the continuum of illness involves addressing physical, intellectual, emotional, social and spiritual needs and facilitating patient autonomy, access to information and choice.\" 1 Cultural needs are also pivotal in the provision of palliative care.\nThe Paediatric Palliative Care Service at the John Hunter Children's Hospital was established in April 2010. The Service aims to provide support to children and young people from the Hunter, New England or North Coast regions with life-threatening2 or life-limiting illness3 and their families/carers. The Service also aims to provide education, advice and support to health care professionals providing care to these young patients.\nIn 2008 we agreed to fund the position of the Late Effects Co-Ordinator at John Hunter Children's Hospital for 3 years and we were pleased to be asked again in 2015 to fund the Clinical Nurse Consultant for a further 3 years.\nA growing number of children and adolescents that have had treatment for a childhood cancer are now surviving their disease. These childhood cancer survivors require ongoing and systematic monitoring, early detection and timely intervention of a variety of potential \u201clate effects\u201d from their chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and surgery or combined therapies. The late effects coordinator is responsible for coordinating clinics that educate, screen, monitor and manage childhood cancer survivors 5 years from completion of treatment to ensure the best possible quality of life for each individual. Patients receive a Patient Treatment Summary that summarises their individual treatment and recommendations and health promotion information sheets to keep them in the best health possible.\nIn conjunction with their primary oncologist, we are determining which survivor needs face to face appointments and which survivors can maintain contact with the late effects clinic via a standardised telephone consult, usually those at low risk of any late effects.\nLyndal Moore is the Late Effects Coordinator at John Hunter Children\u2019s Hospital Newcastle and commenced this role in 2008 with the support of the Kids with Cancer Foundation which continues to provide this essential service to the childhood cancer survivors within the Hunter New England Local Health District.\nLyndal Moore (Late Effects Coordinator)\n\"We are very thankful for your support of our Late Effects Coordinator. It has made a significant difference to the co-ordination of the care of children who have completed their therapy and are most likely cured of their disease but who need follow-up for any toxicities from the therapy that they have received. This will go a long way towards providing the support that these individuals and their families need\". Dr. Frank Alvaro\nThe Foundation was pleased to receive a certificate of recognition in July 2008 from Senior Staff Specialist Dr. Frank Alvaro, after donating $250,000 from the sale of our $2.00 raffle tickets in Newcastle shopping centres.\n\"On behalf of the children of the Hunter New England region that receive cancer and haematology services at the John Hunter Children\u2019s Hospital please accept our gratitude and sincere appreciation for the wonderful contribution of Kids With Cancer in helping us construct our new Oncology Day Unit.\nThe Kids with Cancer Foundation has played a significant role in bringing this project to fruition. Now, we can ensure that our patients have access to the highest quality of care and we know we have the potential to enhance and expand that care to continue delivering best practice in oncological care for children and young people.\" Dr. Frank Alvaro\nWe urge you to consider the children in a hospital near you. Please donate, post cheques to: Kids with Cancer Foundation, PO Box 135 Westmead NSW 2145 or for credit cards: free-call any donations to 1800 255522, and we guarantee that 100% of these donations will be passed to families & cancer wards, or use this Donate now button or at the top of the page.",

        "raw_content": "May your kingdom come \u2026\nI don\u2019t remember when I first read Shaun Groves\u2019 blog. Or how I got there, although I\u2019m guessing it was while I was reading about Compassion International when we were deciding to sponsor a child. But whenever and however, I thought I\u2019d like it, so I added it to my Google Reader. And it\u2019s been there ever since, which can\u2019t be said of all blogs I\u2019ve subscribed to at one point or another.\nAnd then this summer I started craving new music. There wasn\u2019t anything wrong with the old music. I just needed something new to put on repeat. That\u2019s how I am with music. I find songs I like, and I listen to them over and over.\nShaun Groves has a new album coming out that is worth putting on repeat. Shaun is an advocate for children living in poverty, and does something about it through his job with Compassion. And he does something about it with the other things he does, like making good music.\nWant to listen? You can. Want to buy it? You can do that too. It\u2019ll be released Aug. 30.\nRecently, Shaun invited bloggers to ask him three questions. So I did, of course. That journalism blood will always run through me, even though I haven\u2019t once been tempted back into a newsroom since embarking on my stay-at-home mom career. Yet I haven\u2019t stopped writing and soaking in stories.\nSo, here\u2019s part of the story of Shaun\u2019s coming-soon album, \u201cThird World Symphony.\u201d\n1. What makes this CD different than anything people have heard you sing before?\nOK, seriously, I\u2019m a different guy now. It\u2019s been six years since I\u2019ve released a full-length record and I\u2019ve not the guy I was six years ago. There\u2019s a lot less \u201cme\u201d and \u201cI\u201d in the lyrics this time. There aren\u2019t any metaphor songs \u2013 something I was kind of known for way back when. My voice has changed too \u2013 singing so often for so many years has weathered it a bit I think \u2013 jury is still out on whether that\u2019s a good thing. And the reason I make music has changed as well. I\u2019m not trying to sell a lot of CDs so I can pay my bills. I\u2019m truly attempting to connect the first world to the third world for the betterment of both. And I think this change in purpose is reflected throughout the record.\n2. How do you balance ministering to others, through Compassion, with this album and in other ways, while keeping your family a priority?\nMy wife helps tremendously with this. Together we decide how many cities I\u2019ll be in each year, block important dates on the calendar, and decide together when long stretches of overseas travel fit best within our family\u2019s schedule. We currently cap my travel at 80 cities per year. And I\u2019m not gone more than four days in a row unless it\u2019s overseas. Then, when I\u2019m home, I have a great deal of freedom on my job to work when odd hours. So, I can eat with my family, take a break to throw a football or dominate in a game of Candyland \u2013 that sort of thing. We have a pretty great life. I don\u2019t take it for granted.\n3. What three things do you hope people take away from listening to these 10 songs?\nI hope listeners get a glimpse of the wisdom and beauty that God has allowed me to experience in being with our brothers and sisters in the third world. I hope they think of that when they think about the poor \u2013 not only do they need us but perhaps we need them more. Their perspective and gratitude and all that they\u2019ve given me and I\u2019m now passing on in song. I hope also that listeners do something. Whether that\u2019s a simple prayer of thanks or simplifying their life or sponsoring a child through Compassion International. I hope they act on the inspiration.\nLastly, I hope they gain a more complete picture of the gospel, of the mission of Christ. He didn\u2019t come to earth, live, die and live again to forgive my sins and take me to heaven when I die. He did all this AND provided for my physical needs everyday of my life by giving me the Church, empowered by the Spirit, focused on the kingdom, preaching AND healing as Jesus did to the ends of the earth. That\u2019s the whole gospel \u2013 May your kingdom come and your will be done on earth as it is in heaven \u2013 inside our hearts and throughout every aspect of our lives.\nFiled Under: Compassion, music",

        "raw_content": "Good Evening and welcome to our first event of the New Year. I trust you have all recovered from the effects of the Festive Season. Ann and I enjoyed our trip to Ypres (See my article). We were surprised to see that Branch member Arthur Wood was also staying there.\nChairman\u2019s Visit to Ypres\nMy birthday is one week before Christmas and this year I will have become a septuagenarian. A hundred years ago in late July, 6 Battalion, Cheshire Regiment attacked St. Julien on the opening day of Third Ypres. Many of the men who were casualties on that day would have trained in the TA here in Stockport, where we hold our meetings.\nI contacted the Last Post Association and I was able to arrange that I would lay a wreath at the Menin Gate on 18th December.\nAnn & I travelled on the overnight ferry from Hull a few days in advance. We had arranged to stay at Varlet Farm, in Poelcappelle. (The original farm was on the battlefield). On the way down we called in at Bruges and enjoyed its splendid buildings. We also went on a photographic tour led by a Canadian photographer who not only introduced us to methods of enhancing one\u2019s shots but also took us through some of the quieter areas not often visited by tourists. A fellow \u2018student\u2019 was a lady from Australia.\nWe duly arrived at the farm and went into Ypres for the Last Post at the Menin Gate. (Up to and including the weekend there were considerable numbers at the ceremony).\nThe next day we visited the Passchendaele Experience Museum in Langemark. It has been extensively refurbished with a wealth of exhibits from the Battle and a reconstructed trench system outside. Whilst in the museum we re-met the Australian lady from Bruges who was visiting it with her husband. In the afternoon we looked at the late moonlight attack of 2nd December 1917. This will be the subject of one of our talks in 2018.\nAnother day saw us walk along the old railway (now a cycle track) from the impressive station house at Zonnebeke. We also visited Essex Farm and the Yorkshire Trenches. We then went to Zandvoorde and gained access to the imposing German command post. It was built by the 3rd Coy. Armierungsbatallion 27.\nHaving previously had a private pilot\u2019s licence and flying a Cessna 172 for several years, the air war has always been of interest. Although we think of the air aces, the RFC (later RAF) was a great asset to General Haig, who was a believer in the modern technology, especially as reconnaissance for the artillery. The aircraft of the RFC may have been state of the art at the time, but were rudimentary and the air battles were intense.\nOur first really recognised air ace was Albert Ball VC, of whom we learnt in one of last year\u2019s talks. A fearless aviator, he was killed when his aircraft crashed at Annoeullin. There is a German military cemetery adjoining the town cemetery and Ball is buried within the former. We visited the military cemetery and paid homage at the aviator\u2019s grave, which is very impressive.\nOn Monday 18th December, my birthday, we stayed local and duly arrived at the Menin Gate in good time for the commemoration. The numbers present were relatively small compared to the weekend ceremonies; nevertheless the last post was played immaculacy by the local fire brigade. They are a magnificent group of men who have played the last post every day since just after the Gate was unveiled. (Except for the period during World War Two, when the town was occupied) The commemoration has now been carried out over 30,000 times. Whenever I am present I always make it a point to individually thank each of the players.\nOn the night there was only one other wreath being laid and I was given the great honour of delivering the Exhortation. Our newly made friends at Varlet Farm were present and I am very grateful to Annabel and Nigel for taking photographs during the ceremony.\nThe next day we had to say goodbye to Ypres and spent the morning in Gent. This is yet another beautiful town with some magnificent buildings. The centre revolves around a canal system and we took a boat trip along it. The guide was fluent in English as well as Spanish- our co-travellers on the boat.\nEventually it was off to Zeebrugge for the return ferry. Fortunately, both crossings were without incident. Although the outbound voyage had some heavy seas in the middle of the night, we did not suffer any ill effects.\nTerry giving the exhortation\nAnn and Terry at the Menin gate\nTerry's bunker!\nLast Month's Talk\nMike O'Brien gave us a most entertaining talk on Americans in the British forces (as opposed for example to the Canadian army). His research has been published in a new book which is reviewed here.\nAbout 9.30 p.m. on Saturday, 12th January, destroyers H.M.S. Opal and Narbrough were in company Opal leading. There was a thick blizzard on at the time and a heavy following sea.\nBoth ships had been sailing with the light cruiser Bodicea searching for enemy minelayers in the vicinity of Scapa Flow. Due to the bad weather and the danger of swamping, the cruiser instructed the two destroyers to return to Scapa Flow. Unfortunately, both ships collided with the rocky outcrop Clett of Crura. There were 188 fatalities and the only survivor was William Sissons who had been on board Opal. At the Court of Enquiry he gave evidence as to the loss of the two vessels.\nOpal struck heavily about three times and shortly after appeared to slide into deep water. Almost immediately after striking Opal was pooped by the following sea which filled up her after part and carried away her funnels and mast. After apparently sliding into deeper water her fore part broke off at the break of the forecastle and the remainder foundered in about a quarter of an hour from striking.\nDirectly Opal who, Sissons stated, had been sounding with a sounding machine, struck, she blew three blasts on her siren which were answered by Narbrough. Narbrough appeared to pass Opal on the port quarter, strike heavily and heel well over.\nNothing more of Narbrough was seen by the survivor. He stated that Captain and Sub-Lieutenant of Opal were on the bridge at the time of striking and after striking orders were given to abandon ship. He did not observe any boat manage to get away safely and stated that the Carley Floats were launched but owing to sea no one could remain on them.\nHe swam ashore and reached a ledge, with crevices, well sheltered from the wind, with about 50 yards on which to walk about. He kept himself alive with shellfish and snow, and at one time managed to scale the cliff to within a few feet of the top but fell back again.\nHe considered that men on deck before the midship gun-platform should have had some chance of saving themselves, but could give no information as to anyone from Narbrough.\nFrom the board of Enquiry-Ed\nHMS Narbrough\nWilliam Sissons",

        "raw_content": "This paper is aimed analysing the differences between common law and civil law in the UK and other European countries. It will also explore the theory behind the development of these laws and the segments of society that they cater to. Collin put forth a viewpoint that the increased collision between public law and contractual practices has led to a disintegration of the former, resulting in the need to revise the private so that it is in tandem with the public and welfare legislation (Collins, 1999, Regulating Contracts).\nHowever, private laws and public regulation are governed by doctrines that are very different in their basic nature and whom they are meant to protect.\nCourts do not have the access or the understanding required of these doctrines in order to formulate effective policies. Beatson further speaks in favour of the bringing together of statute and common law by posing the question: \u201cWhy should statutory manifestations of principle identified in this way not be part of the armoury of the common law judge in determining a hard case and seeking to determine what best fits the fundamental principles of the legal system (Beatson, 2001, The Role of Statute in the Development of Common Law Doctrine)?\u201d\nFor example, in the case of unfair dismissal, the common law empowers the employer to terminate a contract of employment, without defining any process or fair practice to be followed, until and unless these are mentioned particularly in the employment contract. The employment contract supersedes the law and is the only document considered by the court to determine the wrongfulness or unfairness of dismiss. As such, the employer has a free hand in the manner of dismissal and is, at most, liable to provide a fixed notice period, a term mentioned within the employment contract, fixed term contracts being the exception (Anderman, 2004, Termination of Employment: Whose property Rights?). Statutary law, on the other hand, provides for better protection of an employee\u2019s rights.\nThe attributes of Common Law indicate the incomplete move the system of causes of action to the system of substantive rights and the partial categorization of real rights and personal rights have arising as a result of a standalone court system (Frank, 1981, The Importance of Roman Law for Western Civilization and Western legal Thought). It was the power of the court that converted common law into the first idea of law as a rule. Hence, law itself constitutes those rights have been protected by common law courts. This lends stability as well as flexibility to the common law system. However, this very nature makes the common law unsystematic as it is not thoroughly etched out.\nCivil Law can be described as a structure of substantive rights that is different as a concept and is segregated into real and personal rights. At the law\u2019s nucleus is the right to ownership or property and it is has been categorized into codes. The civil law system is believed to have originated in as a legal science during the Roman and Greek era, which has been passed on through periods till modern day. As the civil law has been drafted, coded and has been viewed as a system of rights, its highly systemized and transparent in nature. However, unlike the common law, it lacks flexibility to adapt to changing societal demands as the civil law follows a lengthy and tedious process for amendment.\nHowever, the conceptual differences between civil and common laws are often exaggerated. To begin with, both the concepts have descended from the Roman law system that has formed the very basis of English, Scottish and American legal systems (Peter, 1988, The Character and Influence of the Roman Civil Law: Historical Essays). The Common Law relies heavily on jurisprudence to develop legal theories that maintain a balance between stability and flexibility while attempting to attain systematic transparency at all times. In the case of the Civil Law, the traditional purpose of its development was to form a private law to protect private rights. It was focused on protecting people from those who abused governmental power. However, both forms of laws are mutually acceptable and used in society.\nCountries around the globe place varied levels of importance to Common Law and Civil Law. In Europe, England, Ireland and Wales follow the Common Law as jurisdiction although it is more codified here than it is traditionally. Other countries that are Common Law jurisdictions include the United States of America, Canada, Australia, India, Malaysia, Jamaica and South Africa. The Common Law here is based on rules created by judges during prominent cases. Conversely, European countries such as Germany and France follow Civil Law jurisdiction, wherein the law as a code is given much more importance than judge-made rules (Jon and Michael, 2006, Business Law).\nThe most striking difference between Common Law and Civil Law can be noted on how each draws decisions to serve justice. Common Law operates on a more \u2018case to case\u2019 basis, approaching each case separately. The principles governing the law are generally arrived at after learning for every individual case. A judge would rely on historical records of similar cases, analyzes current case fact and arrives at conclusions without following any set dogmatic conceptual construct.\nOn the other hand, Civil Law relies mainly on a set of codes and abstract rules against which the particulars of a case are checked. It is on the basis of the relevance of the case to these rules, issues are predicted and solved in advanced through subsuming. A Common Law practitioner would need to first wait for a problem to appear and then devise a solution.\nDoctrine takes precedence over jurisprudence in Civil Law. It acts like a framework or guideline that all practitioners including courts, judges and lawyers need to adhere to when deciding on current cases. They are also to use these doctrines to devise various legal treatises for future case scenarios. However, in Common Law, doctrines are only minimally used to identify likenesses and distinctions between cases as well as derive particular rules from historical cases.\nCommon Law and Civil Law have several procedural differences as well, especially on how cases are carried out. Common Law procedures are mainly adversarial in nature where the role of lawyers entails the presentation of case facts, the point of view of each party as well as the legal view. The judge, under Common Law, solely acts as a manager of the proceedings. He or she reviews the presentations made by the lawyers and makes this the basis of the decision being passed on the case. In cases that need the services of a jury, the judge only summarizes the evidences and helps the jury understand the legal tenets pertaining to the case. Hence, it can be said that, in the case of Common Law, the proceedings of a case rely mainly on the attorney or lawyer and less on the judge.\nConsidering the important role that lawyers play in the Common Law, the English legal system categorizes them under two headings: a) Barrister \u2013 an attorney who solely advise clients on the possibility of success of a provisional case and representing them in the court, and b) Solicitor \u2013 These lawyers act as single points of contact for not just litigation but also legal acts such as writing of wills, legalities of a marriage and transfer of titles. However, this categorization of lawyers does not exist in several common law countries while in others, such as Canada, the differentiation used to exist earlier but is not practiced today.\nIn the case of Civil Law, while other parties involved in a case are relevant to the proceedings too, it is the judge who plays the most important role. It is for this reason that, when compared to common law, civil law proceedings are more inquisitorial in nature. Civil court judges undertake the interrogation and questioning of witnesses for extracting evidence. The facts and evidences presented by the representing lawyer are cross examined and verified by the judge. Once the judge has drawn sufficient information, the lawyer can only ask additional questions.\nUnder the common law, the clients and their lawyers are to provide all evidences relevant to the case, including the testimonies of the prosecution\u2019s as well as defence\u2019s witnesses. Each lawyer is allowed to question his \u2018own\u2019 witnesses as well as cross examine the opponent\u2019s witnesses as well. This practice, however, is not followed under the civil law. This is a major difference between common law and civil law procedures as only the judge has the right to question witnesses under the civil law. Hence, there is no scope for cross examination of witnesses.\nThe role of expert witnesses also differ in both laws. Under the common law, the prosecution and defence are allowed to bring their own experts who are also open to cross questioning. However, in the case of civil law, it is the judge who appoints an expert, generally a sole expert, and takes his opinion on the case.\nThe purpose of proceedings also differ in common law and civil law. Under the common law, the parties in the case are given the opportunity to amass evidence and testimonies that support their point of view and present the same before the judge or a jury, based on which the verdict of the case is delivered. However, under the civil legal system, the focus of the proceedings is to find a resolution to a problem. Instead of parties presenting the facts, the judge assumes what must be the most accurate description of the facts and takes decisions on this basis. Hence, the decisions made in this manner are not always \u2018right\u2019 or based on actual facts but a only a perception of the facts.\nUnder the civil legal system, the parties involved a highly detailed version of their view point in writing which enlists all the facts and evidences to be presented in court as a first procedural step. After a certain degree of discussions within the view of the court, the case is finally tried, where the judge verifies the facts given in the writings of both the parties, analyses them and arrived at a conclusion. However, under common law, the parties are first allowed to collect all the evidence to support their claim. Further, the prosecution and defence are permitted to view each others\u2019 evidences and prepare thoroughly for a trial. It is only then that the case is presented before the court, where a verbal trial takes place and a verdict is announced by the judge or the jury.\nIn conclusion, common law and civil law systems have several differences. To begin with, they differ in their very origin and progression. Both the systems are followed by various countries across the globe, although the common legal system prevails more in liberal democratic countries such as the UK, US and India. Further, the systems differ in their basic concepts and procedures as well. The common law places greater importance on the role of lawyers while in the civil law, the judge is pivotal.\nAnderman, S.

        "title": "Misappropriation of funds: The profession's dirty little secret",
        "raw_content": "Legal business Legal Practice Management Weekend reads White-collar crimes May 10, 2013\nMisappropriation of funds: The profession\u2019s dirty little secret\nOn an unusually warm and foggy Saturday evening this past December the $1.7-million home of Dany Perras was set ablaze, the third time in the space of a year an act of vandalism targeted the former Montreal lawyer. Perras, who resigned abruptly from the roll in October 2011, is under investigation by the Quebec Bar for allegedly orchestrated a multi-million dollar Ponzi scheme through his lawyers\u2019 trust account. It\u2019s been more than 16 months since the scandal that shook the Montreal legal community erupted, and the fallout is still being felt. Successfully petitioned into bankruptcy, Perras is the subject of an ongoing criminal probe and a host of legal proceedings \u2013 many of which are under court seal \u2014 launched by more than a dozen creditors seeking an amount surpassing $6 million.\nThe Perras case is unique, and yet at the same time it is not. The former Montreal lawyer is not the first nor will he be the last advocate accused of misappropriating funds from a trust account. Disciplinary notices posted by law societies are replete with hearings of lawyers who were unable to resist the temptation of dipping into their trust accounts. Even then, it can be forcefully argued that defalcation is anomalous. As Susan Forbes, director of insurance of British Columbia\u2019s Lawyers Insurance Fund, which manages the Law Society\u2019s insurance program, points out that \u201cwhen you consider that there are 10,000 practicing lawyers in BC and there are only one or two a year that get involved with theft, that is a very small percentage.\u201d Tom Schonhoffer, the executive director of the Law Society of Saskatchewan, has another take. \u201cIf you look through the billions of dollars that go through trust accounts, defalcations would be a fraction of a fraction of one percent.\u201d\nBut it happens more frequently than the profession cares to admit, particularly thefts from a law firm\u2019s general accounts. David Debenham, a certified fraud specialist and investigator who is a partner with McMillan LLP in Ottawa, estimates that only one in ten frauds perpetrated by lawyers, law clerks or staff, come to light. \u201cA lot of firms that had lawyers or law clerks or staff that commit fraud tend to indemnify clients and not report it \u2014 it\u2019s sort of the (profession\u2019s) dirty little secret,\u201d says Debenham, a certified management accountant who is hired by law firms to investigate fraud. He says that there is no doubt that the number of misappropriation cases is growing exponentially.\nThough he doesn\u2019t go that far, the chief executive officer of the Professional Liability Insurance Fund of the Barreau du Qu\u00e9bec says that the insurer has had to grapple with a \u201csignificant\u201d increase in defalcations over the past couple of years. What\u2019s more, the amounts being misappropriated are larger than ever. \u201cI have been here for 25 years, and we never saw situations like that ten years ago,\u201d says Ren\u00e9 Langlois. The figures bear him out, at least in Quebec. The Quebec liability insurer paid out nearly $20 million in claims in fiscal 2011, almost double compared to the preceding year, according to its latest annual report. In Ontario, total claim costs may top the $100-million mark, reveals Lawpro\u2019s 2011 annual report. The number of claims reported \u2013 2,468 \u2013 is higher than it has been at any point since 2000 and 11 per cent higher than in 2010. Similarly, claims frequency (number of claims per 1,000 lawyers \u2013 a better barometer of trends) is up to 107 from 99 a year earlier.\nYet Dan Pinnington, vice president, claims prevention and stakeholders relations at Lawyers\u2019 Professional Indemnity Company (Lawpro), a wholly Canadian owned insurance company that provides professional liability insurance to lawyers in Ontario and title insurance coast-to-coast, maintains that though the insurer deals with them regularly and \u201coccasion we have seen some very large losses, either through lawyer fraud or staff fraud, I can\u2019t say we have had an increase.\u201d\nMost misappropriations are committed by solo practitioners or lawyers practicing in an association where they might be physically be present with other lawyers but are running their own trust accounts. Most thefts are usually small amounts. Cases like Howard Lorne Tennenhouse, who was disbarred by the Law Society of Manitoba last year after pleading guilty to taking nearly $1-million from 54 residential school survivors, is the exception to the norm. \u201cUsually what happens is that it starts as a one-off that they just do for an emergency, then they do it a few more times and it goes from there,\u201d says Debenham, the author of The Law of Fraud and the Forensic Investigator.\nDefalcations committed by a partner working in a law firm is atypical. But when it happens the amounts that are misappropriated often are sizeable. Ottawa lawyer Leslie Andrew Vandor was disbarred last year by the Law Society of Upper Canada (LSUC) for misappropriating more than $2-million, most of which came from his father\u2019s estate and Vandor Investments Ltd.. He was also found to have misappropriated funds from Lang Michener, which has since merged with McMillan LLP, in 2008.\nThe Perras case\nThe Perras case is all the more exceptional because it is a cautionary tale that underscores the exposure and \u201cworld of trouble\u201d law firms can be drawn into when faced with a rogue partner. Kaufman Laram\u00e9e LLP, the Montreal law firm where Perras briefly practiced for six months in 2011, too has been ensnared in the legal maelstrom and now faces five lawsuits from Perras\u2019 former clients arising from the alleged financial fraud. Even lawyers acting on behalf of \u201cparties that were basically conned by Perras\u201d are sympathetic to the law firm\u2019s plight. \u201cThe circumstances here are horrendous for a law firm,\u201d says Neil Stein of Stein & Stein Inc. \u201cThe last thing a law firm wants is to be sued. It is not imaginable that one of your own partners would put you into a situation of that nature. They don\u2019t deserve it.\u201d\nThe plaintiffs, members of the Montreal Jewish community, claim they were approached by Perras to participate in business opportunities that required them to make short term loans to be held into the trust accounts operated by the firm and Perras before paying out a pre-determined rate of interest. The investors are suing Kaufman Laram\u00e9e for a total of $3.1 million, alleging that the firm was negligent because it failed to inform them that Perras was no longer a partner when they made the deposits, says the plaintiff\u2019s counsel Sylvain Deslauriers, president of Montreal law firm Deslauriers & Cie. The firm and Perras ended their partnership in June 2011, but Perras was allowed to maintain an office until September when he set up his own separate office. \u201cThe firm was victimized by an individual who was recommended by a large national recruiting firm who came with good credentials,\u201d says Kaufman\u2019s counsel George Pollack, a partner in the Montreal office of Davies Ward Phillips & Vineberg LLP. \u201cWe didn\u2019t know to what extent he was abusing the hospitality that was accorded to him.\u201d\nMaking matters worse, Kaufman is on its own to defend the actions. Quebec\u2019s professional liability insurer has denied coverage and refused to defend the firm and its partners because it felt they did not provide professional services \u2013 a position that Quebec Superior Court Justice David Collier endorsed in a ruling released just days before the blaze struck Perras\u2019 residence. \u201cIt cannot be concluded that Perras or Kaufman rendered professional services to the plaintiffs by accepting deposits, acting as escrow agent, or transferring funds from one trust account to another,\u201d Collier wrote in one of the few decisions in case law that examined the interplay between insurance coverage and professional legal services. \u201cA solicitor-client relationship does not arise from the mere receipt of funds for deposit\u2026Taking the pleadings at face value, it appears they provided investment services to the plaintiffs.\u201d\nThat was also the conclusion that the Ontario Court of Appeal came to six years ago in a case pitting Cassels Brock & Blackwell LLP against Lawpro. In considering a number of transactions that were similar to the Kaufman case, the appeal court found that a trust account transaction was not a professional service, and that it fell under the policy\u2019s investment exclusion, because it was not \u201cancillary\u201d to legal services. \u201cA person who is a lawyer may wear more than one hat, but just because at most times that person wears the hat of a lawyer does not mean that he always acts qua lawyer,\u201d wrote the court in a brief three-page ruling.\nProfessional liability insurers\nThose are the kinds of rulings that reassure professional liability insurers. All law societies in Canada provide provides professional liability insurance for negligence, but its scope varies from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. All law societies also have set aside funds to provide trust protection coverage to ensure that innocent members of the public do not suffer a loss through theft by a lawyer \u2013 so long as the lawyer who received the monies and deposited it in the trust account performed legal services. Indeed, in Alberta lawyers are prohibited from depositing money into their trust account if it is not in conjunction with legal services, notes Steve Raby, the outgoing President of the Alberta Law Society.\nOther compensation funds, like Manitoba\u2019s, are discretionary. \u201cWe protect against legal service,\u201d says Allan Finebilt, chief executive officer of the Law Society of Manitoba, echoing the way many other compensation funds are managed by law societies. \u201cWe never had to go to court to establish that because it is a discretionary fund. We have no contractual obligation with the party.\u201d In Nova Scotia the Lawyers Fund for Client Compensation takes a slightly different tack. It is a fund of first resort, and claimants are not required to exhaust other remedies, which is not necessarily the case with other compensation funds. \u201cThe approach we take is if a lawyer committed a defalcation and the victim is truly innocent, payment will be made,\u201d says Darrel Pink, executive director of the Nova Scotia Barrister\u2019s Society.\nThe liability and exposure law partners face when one of theirs misappropriates raises \u201cinteresting legal issues,\u201d adds Pink. Not just in Nova Scotia, though, but across the country. In Nova Scotia if a lawyer practicing in a law firm steals money from a trust account, then the firm and its partners are jointly and severally liable \u2013 and it is an absolute liability. But when Halifax lawyer Srinivasen Pillay bilked $1.3-million from the trust account of the law firm McGinty McCleave between March 2000 and February 2005, the Nova Scotia legal community demonstrated an exceptional display of generosity. With the approval of its members, the law society imposed a one-time levee of $750 on each lawyer in the province to cover the bill. \u201cIn that case although at law the partners might have been liable they would not have provided compensation to the victims because it would have bankrupted them so we paid all those claims,\u201d says Pink. Pillay, who was sentenced to four years in prison, was also ordered to pay $1.3 million in restitution to the Nova Scotia Barristers\u2019 Society.\nIn Ontario, the legal landscape is slightly different. Minimum level so-called Innocent Party coverage is required for all lawyers practising in association, partnership (including general, MDP and LLP partnerships) or a law corporation with more than one lawyer. The coverage is designed to protect against the dishonest, fraudulent, criminal, or malicious acts or omissions of present or former partners, associates, employed lawyers and firm employees. \u201cBut if an employee stole money out of a general account \u2013 as opposed to a trust account \u2013 and stole the firm\u2019s money, not the client\u2019s money, in that case no client was aggrieved, no professional services were involved so certainly there wouldn\u2019t be no coverage under the Lawpro policy,\u201d notes Pinnington.\nAt the other end of the spectrum stands B.C. Its trust protection coverage insures all members of the Law Society of BC for claims arising from the theft of money or property relating to the member\u2019s practice of law. Trust protection coverage offers an annual aggregate limit, profession-wide, of $17.5 million; each claimant may recover up to $300,000 per claim. \u201cWhere a lawyer does steal, our insurance benefits partners in the firm as well as the victim,\u201d explains Forbes. \u201cWhen we pay the claim we don\u2019t subrogate the innocent partners in the firm. We protect all of them through compensation so the members are fully protected.\u201d\nAlberta law society tackling misappropriation head-on\nBut at least one law society is aggressively tackling the issue of misappropriation of funds in a no way no other law society has so far dared to. In a bid to address rising threats to the security of trust funds, the Law Society of Alberta introduced in 2011 a new regulatory structure that turns on its head the widely-held premise that lawyers have are entitled to have a trust account. Instead under the new Safety of Trust Property program, a law firm seeking to open a trust account must get approval from the Law Society. The firm must designate a specific lawyer who will be responsible for meeting the requirements set out by the regulator, and who will be held accountable for non-compliance. It has broad audit authority and through an automated audit program the law society is now capable of auditing 100% of accounting transactions of any law firm using approved law firm accounting. \u201cWe got scared in Alberta,\u201d acknowledges Raby, who served as Chairman of the Trust Safety Program committee. \u201cThe numbers had been quite small until 2004 and it jumped dramatically to $1.4 million and then the next couple of yrs were $864,000 and $754,000. That\u2019s when we had a look at our trust safety program.\u201d\nOther law societies such as Manitoba and Nova Scotia are paying close attention. \u201cWe probably need to move into the 21st century in terms of our controls,\u201d says Finebilt. \u201cGiven what the risk is people are recognizing over time that they want to invest more because ultimately you pay for the tools or you pay for the loss \u2013 and it is way cheaper to pay for the tools.\u201d Pink, however, says that before proceeding law societies must grapple with over the appropriate amount of regulation. \u201cTrust oversight is one of those areas where it is very risky but also very easy to over regulate,\u201d points out Pink.\nNicolas Plourde does not seem to have such reservations. The former batonnier of the Barreau du Qu\u00e9bec believes that the Barreau should be examining ways to bolster regulatory oversight over trust accounts. One model that he finds enticing is French-based Caisses des R\u00e8glements P\u00e9cuniaires des Avocats, better known under its acronym CARPA. In France lawyers are not allowed to hold clients\u2019 money, but must pay it into the bar\u2019s account, under the control of the president of the bar. There are over 100 CARPAs in France, and each is under the political and ethical control of the local bar. CARPA is not itself a bank, but works with banks. \u201cThe increase in number of claims and value of the claims from the Quebec professional liability fund, one of the causes being misappropriation of funds is worrisome \u2013 and that is why member premiums will be doubling from $600 to $1,286 this year,\u201d says Plourde. \u201cIt has led us to question how we can do more to avoid such a situation\u201d.\nLeft unsaid is that fraudulent schemes allegedly perpetrated by lawyers or former lawyers such as Perras would be snared long before they cause real damage.\nThis story originally appeared in the Canadian Lawyer magazine.\ndefalcationmisappropriationprofessional liability insurance\ntempusfugus\nAnd when you state- \u2018this fraud is more prevalent in small law firms\u2019 you overlook the obvious- the larger firms indemnify the victims \u2013 preventing the theft from showing up as a statistic.\n[\u2026] misappropriation of funds happens more frequently than the profession cares to admit, particularly thefts from a law firm\u2019s general accounts. David Debenham, a certified fraud [\u2026]\nThis is only the tip of the iceberg. How about the conflict of interest rules that are being violated every day- the legal ethics that don\u2019t exist? Nothing is being done about these abuses that have gone on for years.I disagree that these problems are prevalent in small firms. Unfortunately the Provincial Bars are hesitant to attack the large law firms, for the usual reasons and thus these problems are often covered up as stated in the article.The small to medium sized firms are often brought to justice for minor offences that makes it look as though these problems are more prevalent there.\nMaxwell Bailie",

        "raw_content": "An act to amend, repeal, and add Section 8103 of the Welfare and Institutions Code, relating to firearms.\nAB 1968, Low. Mental health: firearms.\nExisting law makes it a crime for a person who has been taken into custody, assessed, and admitted to a designated facility because he or she is a danger to himself, herself, or others, as a result of a mental health disorder to own a firearm for a period of 5 years after the person is released from the facility. Existing law allows a person who is prohibited from owning a firearm pursuant to these provisions to petition the court for a hearing in which the district attorney is required to show by a preponderance of the evidence that the person would not be likely to use firearms in a safe and lawful manner. If the people do not meet this burden, existing law requires the court to order that the person not be subject to this prohibition on the possession of firearms.\nThis bill would prohibit a person who has been taken into custody, assessed, and admitted to a designated facility because he or she is a danger to himself, herself, or others, as a result of a mental health disorder and who was previously taken into custody, assessed, and admitted one or more times within a period of one year preceding the most recent admittance from owning a firearm for the remainder of his or her life. The bill would extend the above hearing process to a person under these provisions. Because a violation of the firearm prohibition would be a crime, the bill would impose a state-mandated local program.\nExisting law requires the facility to provide a person subject to the prohibition with a form to request a hearing and to forward the form to the superior court if the person requests a hearing. Existing law requires the Department of Justice to prescribe the form.\nThis bill would require that form to include an authorization for the release of the person\u2019s mental health records, upon request, to the appropriate district attorney solely for use in the hearing. The bill would require the Department of Justice to update the form in accordance with these requirements and distribute the form to facilities by January 1, 2020. The bill would prohibit the facility from submitting the form on behalf of the person.\nExisting law requires the court to set a hearing within 30 days of receipt of a request. Existing law authorizes a continuance of 14 days, upon a showing of good cause by the district attorney.\nThis bill would instead require the court to set the hearing within 60 days. The bill would further authorize a continuance of 30 days, upon a showing of good cause by the district attorney. The bill would allow a person who is subject to a lifetime firearm prohibition to file a subsequent petition every 5 years to show by a preponderance of the evidence that he or she can use firearms in a safe and lawful manner, as provided.\nExisting law makes it a crime for a person who has been certified for intensive treatment after being admitted to a designated facility because he or she is a danger to himself, herself, or others, as a result of a mental health disorder, to own a firearm for a period of 5 years. Existing law allows a person who is prohibited from owning a firearm pursuant to these provisions to petition the court for an order that he or she may own a firearm. Existing law requires the clerk of the court to set a hearing date at the time the petition is filed. Existing law authorizes a continuance of 14 days after the district attorney is notified of the hearing date.\nThis bill would require the court to set a hearing date within 60 days. The bill would further authorize a continuance of 30 days after the district attorney has been notified of the hearing date. If additional continuances are granted, the bill would limit the total length of time for continuances to 60 days.\nThis bill would make these provisions operative on January 1, 2020.\n(a) (1) A person who after October 1, 1955, has been adjudicated by a court of any state to be a danger to others as a result of a mental disorder or mental illness, or who has been adjudicated to be a mentally disordered sex offender, shall not purchase or receive, or attempt to purchase or receive, or have in his or her possession, custody, or control a firearm or any other deadly weapon unless there has been issued to the person a certificate by the court of adjudication upon release from treatment or at a later date stating that the person may possess a firearm or any other deadly weapon without endangering others, and the person has not, subsequent to the issuance of the certificate, again been adjudicated by a court to be a danger to others as a result of a mental disorder or mental illness.\n(2) The court shall notify the Department of Justice of the court order finding the individual to be a person described in paragraph (1) as soon as possible, but not later than one court day after issuing the order. The court shall also notify the Department of Justice of any certificate issued as described in paragraph (1) as soon as possible, but not later than one court day after issuing the certificate.\n(b) (1) A person who has been found, pursuant to Section 1026 of the Penal Code or the law of any other state or the United States, not guilty by reason of insanity of murder, mayhem, a violation of Section 207, 209, or 209.5 of the Penal Code in which the victim suffers intentionally inflicted great bodily injury, carjacking or robbery in which the victim suffers great bodily injury, a violation of Section 451 or 452 of the Penal Code involving a trailer coach, as defined in Section 635 of the Vehicle Code, or any dwelling house, a violation of paragraph (1) or (2) of subdivision (a) of Section 262 or paragraph (2) or (3) of subdivision (a) of Section 261 of the Penal Code, a violation of Section 459 of the Penal Code in the first degree, assault with intent to commit murder, a violation of Section 220 of the Penal Code in which the victim suffers great bodily injury, a violation of Section 18715, 18725, 18740, 18745, 18750, or 18755 of the Penal Code, or of a felony involving death, great bodily injury, or an act which poses a serious threat of bodily harm to another person, or a violation of the law of any other state or the United States that includes all the elements of any of the above felonies as defined under California law, shall not purchase or receive, or attempt to purchase or receive, or have in his or her possession or under his or her custody or control any firearm or any other deadly weapon.\n(2) The court shall notify the Department of Justice of the court order finding the person to be a person described in paragraph (1) as soon as possible, but not later than one court day after issuing the order.\n(c) (1) A person who has been found, pursuant to Section 1026 of the Penal Code or the law of any other state or the United States, not guilty by reason of insanity of any crime other than those described in subdivision (b) shall not purchase or receive, or attempt to purchase or receive, or have in his or her possession, custody, or control, any firearm or any other deadly weapon unless the court of commitment has found the person to have recovered sanity, pursuant to Section 1026.2 of the Penal Code or the law of any other state or the United States.\n(2) The court shall notify the Department of Justice of the court order finding the person to be a person described in paragraph (1) as soon as possible, but not later than one court day after issuing the order. The court shall also notify the Department of Justice when it finds that the person has recovered his or her sanity as soon as possible, but not later than one court day after making the finding.\n(d) (1) A person found by a court to be mentally incompetent to stand trial, pursuant to Section 1370 or 1370.1 of the Penal Code or the law of any other state or the United States, shall not purchase or receive, or attempt to purchase or receive, or have in his or her possession, custody, or control, any firearm or any other deadly weapon, unless there has been a finding with respect to the person of restoration to competence to stand trial by the committing court, pursuant to Section 1372 of the Penal Code or the law of any other state or the United States.\n(2) The court shall notify the Department of Justice of the court order finding the person to be mentally incompetent as described in paragraph (1) as soon as possible, but not later than one court day after issuing the order. The court shall also notify the Department of Justice when it finds that the person has recovered his or her competence as soon as possible, but not later than one court day after making the finding.\n(e) (1) A person who has been placed under conservatorship by a court, pursuant to Section 5350 or the law of any other state or the United States, because the person is gravely disabled as a result of a mental disorder or impairment by chronic alcoholism, shall not purchase or receive, or attempt to purchase or receive, or have in his or her possession, custody, or control, any firearm or any other deadly weapon while under the conservatorship if, at the time the conservatorship was ordered or thereafter, the court that imposed the conservatorship found that possession of a firearm or any other deadly weapon by the person would present a danger to the safety of the person or to others. Upon placing a person under conservatorship, and prohibiting firearm or any other deadly weapon possession by the person, the court shall notify the person of this prohibition.\n(2) The court shall notify the Department of Justice of the court order placing the person under conservatorship and prohibiting firearm or any other deadly weapon possession by the person as described in paragraph (1) as soon as possible, but not later than one court day after placing the person under conservatorship. The notice shall include the date the conservatorship was imposed and the date the conservatorship is to be terminated. If the conservatorship is subsequently terminated before the date listed in the notice to the Department of Justice or the court subsequently finds that possession of a firearm or any other deadly weapon by the person would no longer present a danger to the safety of the person or others, the court shall notify the Department of Justice as soon as possible, but not later than one court day after terminating the conservatorship.\n(3) All information provided to the Department of Justice pursuant to paragraph (2) shall be kept confidential, separate, and apart from all other records maintained by the Department of Justice, and shall be used only to determine eligibility to purchase or possess firearms or other deadly weapons. A person who knowingly furnishes that information for any other purpose is guilty of a misdemeanor. All the information concerning any person shall be destroyed upon receipt by the Department of Justice of notice of the termination of conservatorship as to that person pursuant to paragraph (2).\n(f) (1) A person who has been (A) taken into custody as provided in Section 5150 because that person is a danger to himself, herself, or to others, (B) assessed within the meaning of Section 5151, and (C) admitted to a designated facility within the meaning of Sections 5151 and 5152 because that person is a danger to himself, herself, or others, shall not own, possess, control, receive, or purchase, or attempt to own, possess, control, receive, or purchase, any firearm for a period of five years after the person is released from the facility. A person described in the preceding sentence, however, may own, possess, control, receive, or purchase, or attempt to own, possess, control, receive, or purchase any firearm if the superior court has, pursuant to paragraph (5), found that the people of the State of California have not met their burden pursuant to paragraph (6).\n(2) (A) For each person subject to this subdivision, the facility shall, within 24 hours of the time of admission, submit a report to the Department of Justice, on a form prescribed by the Department of Justice, containing information that includes, but is not limited to, the identity of the person and the legal grounds upon which the person was admitted to the facility.\nAny report submitted pursuant to this paragraph shall be confidential, except for purposes of the court proceedings described in this subdivision and for determining the eligibility of the person to own, possess, control, receive, or purchase a firearm.\n(B) Facilities shall submit reports pursuant to this paragraph exclusively by electronic means, in a manner prescribed by the Department of Justice.\n(3) Prior to, or concurrent with, the discharge, the facility shall inform a person subject to this subdivision that he or she is prohibited from owning, possessing, controlling, receiving, or purchasing any firearm for a period of five years. Simultaneously, the facility shall inform the person that he or she may request a hearing from a court, as provided in this subdivision, for an order permitting the person to own, possess, control, receive, or purchase a firearm. The facility shall provide the person with a form for a request for a hearing. The Department of Justice shall prescribe the form. Where the person requests a hearing at the time of discharge, the facility shall forward the form to the superior court unless the person states that he or she will submit the form to the superior court.\n(4) The Department of Justice shall provide the form upon request to any person described in paragraph (1). The Department of Justice shall also provide the form to the superior court in each county. A person described in paragraph (1) may make a single request for a hearing at any time during the five-year period.

Speaking at the recently renamed Aretha Franklin Amphitheatre, the controversial minister said he supports Kanye West\u2019s remarks about repealing the 13th Amendment. Farrakhan had also followed up an anti-Semitic rant in May by making a joke about being \u201canti-Termite.\u201d\n\u201cWhite folks don\u2019t like Farrakhan,\u201d the Nation of Islam leader said. \u201cSome of them respect me.

        "raw_content": "Evening had already set over the slums of Kibera, Kenya when the sound of broken glass interrupted the still night. A brawl had broken out in the local bar and authorities were called to intervene. The subjects of the altercation were brought out from the bar and young Lorian was arrested for his involvement. Lorian had a history of being caught up with the wrong crowd in the neighborhood. The struggles of life in the slums took a unique toll on every resident of the area. Lorian\u2019s poor upbringing and impoverished life caused him to seek security and control where he\u2019d seen so many boys his age go. In his early teens, Lorian had joined a youthful gang, notorious for their robberies and assaults against women.\nThe night of the bar fight, Lorian\u2019s life took a turn for the worse. As he sat in the prison cell, his mother entered the prison. She pleaded desperately with the warden to release her son but she didn\u2019t have any money to pay his bail. The police commander felt no remorse for the pleading woman but saw an opportunity to satisfy his desires. The commander requested sexual favors from Lorian\u2019s mother in exchange for his release. With no other means and desperate for her son\u2019s freedom, his mother agreed.\nUpon his discharge, Lorian discovered the truth behind how he\u2019d been set free. He harbored increasing bitterness against the police and denied all authority. Lorian began to justify all of his rebellious acts with this incident and his involvement with gang violence continued. He was disgusted by his mother\u2019s actions and hated her for what she\u2019d done. Lorian was lost in his rebellious state as, the more he sought security and power, the less control he felt he had over his life. Lorian was purposeless and his wanderings produced no hope. It is in this state of depravity that Lorian was approached by a local pastor during a youth camp meeting.\nThe pastor of one of our local partner churches in Kibera shared the hope that Christ gives through his grace and mercy upon accepting him as your savior. Lorian was touched by the message of forgiveness, causing him to reflect on his own life of rebellion. Over time, he chose to forgive his mother for her immoral deeds and accept Jesus as the Lord of his life. Lorian became heavily involved with the local youth ministry and gradually began to change his ways. Lorian loved working with the youth in his community and longed to save other young men and women from the fate his life would have come to had God not intervened.\nIn church, Lorian had the opportunity to connect with people his age in fellowship. He began to channel his leadership skills toward sharing the gospel with other juveniles. Lorian decided to attend our Training of Trainers (TOT) in which locals are equipped to best serve their community in a sustainable way. The training inspired him to use his story and Scripture to reach his peers in Kibera. Lorian\u2019s radical transformation impacted his mother and she began to explore the source of change herself. Encouraged by her son, Lorian\u2019s mother gave her life to Christ.\nThe county government of Kenya realized Lorian\u2019s potential for leadership and offered him a position as the head of the scouts club in Kibera. Lorian now uses this club as a platform to reach out and transform young lives for Christ. Lorian has made it possible for our partner churches to reach out to students in schools, children\u2019s homes, and charity organizations through which many have come to know Christ. Now at age 25, Lorian earns his living by making shoes and necklaces and uses his skills to train children to be scouts in school. He consistently organizes youth camps where young people can join together in joyful fellowship. When asked about his life, Lorian confidently responded, \u201cI am living my life\u2019s purpose.\u201d\n\u2190 New Territory \u2013 Bujumbura, Burundi",

        "raw_content": "Inspired Teen\tin Blogmas 2016, Lifestyle, Thoughts&Opinions\t January 25, 2017 January 19, 2017 1,235 Words\nHey guys, so, I\u2019m always a little lost as to what my \u2018introductions\u2019 should exactly say, sometimes I say something along the lines of \u2013 \u2018I hope everyone is having a great week\u2019 but that\u2019s just a bit boring, isn\u2019t it? A bit business e-mail style. If you have any ideas, do let me know in the comments, along with any other ideas on how to change my blog \u2013 I am always looking for ways to improve my blog, and whilst we\u2019re on this subject then please feel free to let me know if you have any post ideas that you would like my to write up and publish and I will see what I can do.\nAnyway, you may have a slight idea from the title about what this post is going to be about, let me explain. Firstly, I know what you\u2019re thinking, \u2018Oh no, not a post about 2016, can\u2019t we just forget that year already? Haven\u2019t we discussed and reminisced it enough yet? Let\u2019s just move on.\u2019 Unfortunately, I can\u2019t do that, because I was ill on the day I was supposed to post this and I think it\u2019s really important, maybe others won\u2019t agree but I have to write this post. I have read many posts this month and in fact last month talking about 2016, there were so many people talking about what a terrible year it had been and how it wouldn\u2019t be missed and that they were so glad it was over. I think no one really thought about focusing on some of the good parts of that year, I understand that some people believe there was nothing good about that year, and maybe they were right, who am I to judge on what year they had had but at the same time I feel like there were many people that were glad it was over because of all the history-making political things that happened, all the bad things but I feel like last year really shaped me and taught me a lot, it made me realize a lot of things and I know other people feel the same. Anyway, I would like to write a post talking about all the people that really helped me in 2016 and all the people I would like to acknowledge for everything they did for me, as stupid as it sounds. And yes, before you say anything, I know this isn\u2019t a book.\nFirstly, I would like to thank my Mum for always, always being there for me no matter what phase I\u2019m going through and how stressed I get. Her continued support and patience with me continues to inspire me, as does her kindness, selflessness and knowledge. She is always there when I need to talk things through and willing to make helpful comments that help me with a dilemma or confusion that I\u2019m having. I honestly don\u2019t know what I would do without her.\nI would like to thank my sister for being there when I need a distraction from my studying, someone who will always, always, without a fail make me laugh and smile and take all the stress away even if it\u2019s only for a short amount of time. Someone who reminds me that I will always be a child at heart, someone I can muck about with without feeling stupid and silly, someone who makes me feel like there\u2019s nothing to worry about and as long as I have family and friends then everything will be okay in the end. Without her I genuinely don\u2019t think I would be as happy as I am.\nI would like to acknowledge my brother who is always there when I just need to have a simple chat, someone I can go to and have a good catch-up but someone I can also joke with and who\u2019s there if ever I need a hug. Someone who will mock and tease me and remind me that I will always be his little sister no matter how lost and grown up I think I am, he will always be there for me. For this I will be forever grateful.\nI would like to acknowledge my best friend for being there for me throughout the past year, someone who I can go to and talk to about anything and and everything. Who won\u2019t judge me no matter what crazy thing comes out of my mouth, who will listen to me like it\u2019s the most interesting thing in the world when in reality she couldn\u2019t care less. Someone who is both my complete opposite and my twin at the same time and who keeps me on my feet and reminds me who I am when I get so overwhelmed with work that I forget. Who\u2019s continued support and belief in me continues to astound and bewilder me yet I love her for it, more than she will ever know. She\u2019s someone who has no awareness of quite how brilliant she is and yet she makes me so happy and so motivated and inspired. She has no idea how much she has improved my life in the three and a half years that I\u2019ve known her and I am glad that last year we got the opportunity to grow even closer.\nI would also like to take this time to thank anyone who supported me and gave me the opportunity to develop myself as a person. I would like to thank anyone who was there for me when I needed them or even if I didn\u2019t need them. Anyone who believed or had faith in me when I didn\u2019t have it in myself. Anyone who gave me the opportunity to realize who I am and what I wanted out of life and was part of shaping who I was then, who I am now and who I hope to be in the future. I will be forever grateful to all of you forever.\nAnd lastly, I would like to thank both all the citizens of the UK and the US for teaching me that life is incredibly unexpected, that nothing is ever certain and that you can\u2019t always get what you want, no matter how hard you wish for it. People are not always on your side even when you wish they were or would be and it doesn\u2019t matter how much you reason with them they simply will never accept the truth, they will insist on being blind to it simply so that they don\u2019t have to admit to being wrong. It was an absolutely invaluable lesson and one which I will never forget.\nSo, I know this was a bit of an unusual post and not really anything I would usually post, but I just thought that I owed it to all the people who had been there for me to acknowledge it even if they won\u2019t read it and never know about it. Get involved by acknowledging someone that played an important part in your 2016 in the comments!\nIf you enjoyed this post please give it a like and if you aren\u2019t already you can go and follow me and have my future posts put into your reader or e-mail as soon as it\u2019s published.\nIf you wish to get in touch you can do so using my e-mail \u2013 aninspiredteen@gmail.com\nInspiriring\nLifeOfAnInspiredTeen Blogs\n2 thoughts on \u201c2016 Acknowledgements\u201d\nnevillegirl says:\nAhh, this is such a lovely idea for a post! I might try this next year, or maybe do something similar at the end of the semester, at the end of a study abroad trip since I\u2019ll have met so many new people, et cetera. \ud83d\ude0a\nThank you very much! I was worried about what people would think as I know it\u2019s not really something the readers can connect to and is more just a personal post that only really has meaning for me. But I\u2019d love to read anything you write inspired by this post! Let me know if you do write one \ud83d\ude42",

        "raw_content": "While the lifETIME CDT has not yet started and is recruiting its first students this year, we provide some testimonial from some of our existing PhD students.\nDriven by a desire to shape the current state of medicine, I saw the PhD as the opportunity to learn and focus on biomaterials and regenerative medicine, getting involved in the field and meeting other professionals with similar interests and motivations.\nMy research goal is to understand how biomaterials can be integrated with different cell types to be used in a fabrication process called bioprinting. In my programme,we work closely with a Biotech company, BiogelXLtd., on developing novel Bioinks for 3D printed bone grafts.Bioprinting is an amazing technique,that ultimately takes us one step closer to printing artificial tissues or organs, bringing sci-fi into the real life.\nFor everyone who might be interested, I have 3 key aspects for which I think CEMI is the perfect place to do a PhD: ability to produce and work on state-of-the-art science, highly regarded university with close industrial partnerships and research networks, and an international, helpful and healthy lab environment.\nCancer research has always been of interest to me, and my PhD in the Centre for the Cellular Microenvironment is allowing me to contribute to this field from an engineering perspective.My research focusses on the investigation of dormancy and progression in pancreatic cancer.I produce hydrogels that are controllable in terms of protein incorporation, mechanical properties, and degradability. With these biomaterials, I am working to recapitulate certain aspects of the pancreatic cancer microenvironment.\nI work between the University of Glasgow and the Beatson Institute for Cancer Research; our department here in Glasgow University has many links with research institutes across the country, and the world, as well as strong connections with industry. Carrying out a PhD in this centre has allowed me to meet many like-minded people and make many friends, with the opportunity to partake in internships in other labs worldwide\nI am Laila Damiati; a research student at the Centre for the Cellular Microenvironment at the University of Glasgow. I received my bachelor\u2019s degree in Microbiology, a master\u2019s degree in Immunology, and a master\u2019s degree in business administration (MBA).During my current PhD research, I have been studying the ability of bioactive coating and nanotopographies fabricated into 2D/ 3D titanium lattices to support mesenchymal stem cell growth and differentiation to osteoblasts. I have also been examining the response of biofilm-forming bacteria to the patterns as a potential bone implant which can promote bone fixation and prevent the biofilm formation.\nIt\u2019s my pleasure to be in warm, and scientific environment with all CeMi members which breakout the Glasgow\u2019s cold weather.\nHi, I am Michaela, a second year PhD student in the Centre for the Cellular Microenvironment (CeMi) at the University of Glasgow. My research focus is based on the design of an artificial microenvironment based on biointerfaces for theex-vivoexpansion of Hematopoietic Stem Cells for clinical applications. This project attracted my interest because it combines the complexity of stem cell biology with the creative nature of engineering.\nHaving the opportunity to do research as a part of an interdisciplinary team, has enabled me to develop my own ideas as well as collaborate and exchange knowledge with more senior researchers. My project has given me the freedom to explore new methods of research, challenge myself and develop new skills in an inclusive and innovative environment. Choosing to do a PhD has been a truly rewarding experience in my journey of self-development and a great start to my scientific career.\n3rd year PhD student at C\u00daRAM.\nI have always been passionate by the neurosciences, the human brain development, its functions but also its dysregulation when arise neurodegenerative diseases. My research project deals with the understanding of the tissue reaction happening at the interface of the brain and neuroelectrodes used to treat Parkinson\u2019s patients. For this I\u2019m developing an in vitro model of this tissue reaction named \u201cglial scar\u201d which can be used to characterize the biological mechanisms and causes of its appearance. This model can also serve as a platform to screen and test new therapeutics that could improve the integration of any brain implants that undergo a glial scarring process.My PhD is a great way to deepen my knowledge in this field as well with getting expertise in research techniques and methodologies.\n2nd year PhD student at C\u00daRAM.\nStudying biomedical devices development not only gives me the urge of advance current medicine state-of-art, but also makes me feel curious about all interactions that our body can have with different materials and stimuli. Everyday I learn how delicate and fabulous are these different types of interactions and how the crudest of its features can influence a cell down to the molecular level.\nIn our group, due to the large spectrum of specialities and approaches, I found myself immerse in a multimodal project towards the same goals as my brilliant colleagues: to improve the current interaction between neuroelectrodes and host tissue. We are looking into the development of a \u201cliving electrode\u201d, an electrode containing cells on it, involving photolithography processes that can create 3D structures down do the nanoscale!\nDoing PhD here its not only giving me the technical knowledge and support I must learn for my career, but also the opportunity to interact with people from all around the world, learning how we can all work together towards advance the incredible world around biomedical sciences.\n1st year PhD student, Aston University.\nI was attracted to my PhD project mainly because of its potential for clinical impact. While basic science is important in developing novel therapies, we lack the means to translate laboratory findings into affordable and scalable therapies. It is frustrating to see the therapeutic benefits that T-cell therapies can bring, but also the barriers to providing it routinely due to its tremendous cost. My PhD aims to improve manufacturing of T-cell immunotherapies using microfluidic technology, in order to make them safer and more cost effective than they currently are. Furthermore, I am also looking forward to working with experts from other universities, as I have very little experience in nanopatterning and its influence on biologic responses of cells. I am thrilled to learn a wide range of skills and techniques.Being exposed to such interdisciplinary environment will be really valuable for learning and for networking.\nIn our centre, we are developing Nanokick bioreactor to stimulate human mesenchymal stem cells for growing bone cells with nanoscale vibration. I\u2019m developing \u201chydrogel-sponge composite\u201d which is suitable for nanovibrational stimulation and can be delivered to clinics in a handleable manner. I am also investigating biological mechanisms of nanovibration related to free radical signalling for further understanding of the stimulation effects.\nIt\u2019s a great experience working in CeMi. Prof Dalby and Dr Tsimbouri provide great supports and supervisions. I can fully immerse myself in tissue engineering and gain more understand the process of how to drive researches in lab to the bedside for clinical application.\nI am a second year Engineering Doctoral Student in the Formulation Engineering CDT at the University of Birmingham. I chose my project because it gave me an opportunity to continue working in medical engineering \u2013 specifically orthopaedic implant development, while changing my focus to custom implants, which are of great interest to me. While working here I have been able to learn skills in new areas such as characterising bone cements. Another benefit has been meeting new interesting people both in my field and tangential to it.\nMy research focusses on using additive manufacture (metal 3D printing) to create new hip replacements. The technique enables the creation of complex structures such as lattices which cannot be built by conventional means. These allow me to tailor properties of the devices, for example how stiff they are. I can also create cavities for antibiotics and tailor their release to fight infection.\nWorking in the Healthcare Technologies Institute in Birmingham has enabled me to work with many experts in different fields of medicine. I believe this enables us to create the best solutions of patients. It also makes for a stimulating and enjoyable work environment.\nI am second year PhD student in Glasgow with the research objective to engineer different biologically inspired 3D microenvironments to study cell behaviour and, in turn, mimic the process of vascularization that occurs naturally in living bone tissue. To achieve this, I am working with different proteins, gels and polymers to couple angiogenesis with osteogenesis. I am also using a new technology developed in our lab, known as \u2018nanokicking\u2019, which has been shown to provide cells with mechanical nanostimulation to guide their differentiation toward osteogenic linage. The understanding of the mechanotransduction processes within 3D environments is an additional key goal during this project.\nI really believe that doing my PhD in an interdisciplinary group like CEMI gives me the opportunity not only to learn more about other fields but also to meet fantastic people with similar interests to mine and with whom I can share my experiences during all these years!",

        "title": "Reis Learning Center celebrates fifth anniversary - New Milford Spectrum",
        "raw_content": "By Deborah Rose | on February 7, 2019\nReis Learning Center instructor Sam Hopkins, right, works with student Jessica Learson, 16, on a recent visit to the center.\nThe Reis Learning Center in New Milford aims to foster confidence and success in students of all ages in the region.\nSo says Jessica Reis, who owns the center that marked its fifth anniversary Thursday.\nThe center serves individuals of all ages, from kindergarten through high school, as well as adults, offering tutoring, exam prep, enrichment programs, one-time workshops and, new this year, scholarships.\nReis described the \u201cheart\u201d of the center as being \u201cfounded in creating individuals who believe in themselves.\u201d\nShe said her staff members are \u201cpartners\u201d \u2014 not authority figures \u2014 with each student and work with them to facilitate a healthy, positive and encouraging learning environment that promotes success.\n\u201cThe way we teach and the language we use changes (a student\u2019s) thought process,\u201d she said. \u201cWe give students that belief that they can and will achieve\u2026because they can.\u201d\n\u201cWhatever their potential is, we are going to help them\u201d unlock it, said Reis, who graduated from Pace University with a combined BA degree in psychology and a master\u2019s in mental health counseling, and completed continuing education courses in applied behavior analysis.\nPhonics, reading comprehension and writing are among the areas of focus for younger students, while instructors often help older students with math and exam prep.\nLisa Veloso, of Danbury, said her family reached out to the center for SAT prep and had a positive experience.\n\u201cFrom the first meet and greet, both my son and I felt that Jessica (and the center are) not like the typical tutoring centers,\u201d Veloso said. \u201cShe genuinely cares about each student which has a positive impact. They actually want to attend.\u201d\nInstructors will work with students on confidence building and facilitate the use of positive language. For example, phrases such as \u201cI need help\u201d instead of \u201cThis is too hard\u201d are encouraged.\nReis said students seek the center\u2019s help for a variety of reasons. Some need to be taught in a different way than they are in a traditional classroom, while others need to work on skill building.\n\u201cJessica engages and takes the time to learn (the student\u2019s) strengths and weaknesses and plans accordingly,\u201d Veloso said.\nIf more than one area needs to be addressed, such as handwriting and writing, instructors will address both in a \u201ctargeted way so everything gets proper attention\u2026.and the student can get proper reinforcement,\u201d said Reis, who worked with children with autism for several years as an ABA therapist in Connecticut schools.\n\u201cGoing to the RLC has given (my son) a lot more confidence in math and other subjects,\u201d said Sarah Adams of Kent, whose 11-year-old sought help in several areas.\nAdams said Reis identified her son\u2019s needs and \u201cmade him feel comfortable from day one.\u201d\nOver the years, the center has expanded its exam prep for tests such as SAT and ACT and added SSAT for private high school entrance and GRE for graduate school.\nReis has also introduced several enrichment programs, including small group courses such as American Sign Language, summer classes and week-long workshops.\nThe ASL program is comprised of educators who work with those who are deaf, hard of hearing or speech delayed, as well as individuals who are hard of hearing or deaf.\nLast year, elementary school students were invited to the center\u2019s French and Spanish enrichment program. Summer offerings include hands-on and academic-based activities.\nReis also partners with entrepreneurs who don\u2019t have a brick and mortar store to offer one-night workshops open to the community.\nThe newest addition to the center\u2019s offerings are scholarships: one for students seeking first time entrance to a secondary education to a trade school, college etc.; one for students seeking secondary education and are already enrolled in a program; and one for students entering high school.\nVeloso said her family faced scheduling and commute challenges, but \u201cJessica couldn\u2019t have been any more accommodating to make sure the outcome would be a successful one. And that it was.\u201d\nThe Reis Learning Center is located at 65 Bank St. in New Milford. For more information, call 860-354-0854, email jessica.reis\n@reislearningcenter.com.",

Their arms were loaded down with empty soft drink bottles, and their hands were skillfully clutching onto what must have been a sample of every kind of candy in the store. They stepped up to the counter and unloaded their hopeful transaction before the cashier, a pile of bottles and candy and four little eyes staring over it. The cashier reached down and examined all of the bottles, then another. After she had examined all of the bottles she said rather pitifully, \u201cSorry boys, these bottles are non-refundable. You will have to put the candy back.\u201d\nIt seems as though life is filled with non-refundable things, from soft drink bottles to dreams. That is, things that look like they have value and promise but when it comes time to cash them in, \u201cSorry, non-refundable.\u201d\nIt\u2019s easy to be fooled by these things. They look like the real thing and often times have something to do with the real thing but they are not. And no matter how long we carry them around, or want or wish them to be the real thing, they will never be or produce more than \u201cSorry, non-refundable.\u201d CONSIDER that tucked away in the great sermon Jesus preached are these words, \u201cDon\u2019t store up treasures here on earth where they can erode away or may be stolen. Store them in Heaven where they will never lose their value, and are safe from thieves.\u201d\nThey slowly walked away from the counter and returned the candy to the shelves. Heads hanging low, they walked to the door. One of the boys said to the other as the expression on his face went from utter despair to sheer delight, \u201cHey, I know where we can find some good ones. Let\u2019s go!\u201d And away they ran.

        "raw_content": "Those of you who know who E. Gary Gygax is have surely already heard, and those who don\u2019t know wouldn\u2019t care, that he died the other day. Gygax is forever linked to the role-playing game Dungeons & Dragons as one of the co-creators (the most famous and recognized of them). I owe a lot to the works that arose from D&D.\nThe majority of my friends and our activities were D&D (or some other role-playing game) based throughout my pre-teen and teen years. I met one of my best friends because we both played the game, and while we haven\u2019t played the game in years, we\u2019re still friends. I\u2019m not sure what we would have done in high school if we weren\u2019t playing D&D.\nYou could say my comics reading goes back to D&D as the first comic I (or rather one of my parents for me) bought was Dragonlance #2 from DC Comics, based on a D&D product. I quickly moved on to X-Men and then to indies, but that, probably really bad, fantasy comic was what first directed my attention at comics.\nI\u2019d hazard that my interest in rules (constraint) in relation to narrative goes back to D&D. What is D&D but rule-based collaborative narration? Structures and rules have stuck with me. Even my first (sad) attempts at writing were fantasy stories based on my D&D characters (thankfully I moved away from that before I got out of elementary school).\nI haven\u2019t played D&D in a few years, keeping a group together and all the time for preparation was just more than I wanted to deal with, but I still have a few books and polyhedron dice in the closet. I\u2019ve moved on to other activities, but I owe a lot to that game and, thus, to Gygax. I don\u2019t know what he was like as a person, but I hope he knew what an effect he had on so many people (dorky/geeky as we are).\nNewer post: Quotes on Noir\nOlder post: The Golem\u2019s Mighty Swing\nTag: collaborative narration",

        "raw_content": "Aquarius Forecast for Tuesday 7th August by Magic Horoscope\nAstral Horoscope for Today, Tuesday\nYou and your partner are fully committed to your relationship. In fact, it's quite likely that you're already living together. The problem is you've cared for no one other than yourselves lately. When was the last time you did something romantic?\nMaybe you should invest those many hours of work for the common good into improving the wellness of your life together. To arrange future projects together, you need money!\nThis much future projection is what makes you lose touch with the here and now. You can only love that person right now. There won't be a blissful future at all if you're not happy yourselves from this moment on!\nFortunately, this is not an unsolvable issue. If you follow the stars' recommendation and remain available for your partner, you'll outlast time together!\nThere's endless hours of work coming in. It'll all be for a good cause. Don't back down now, not even after hearing what your family has to say about it.\nIf it's a family business we're talking about, you'll be forced to make the extra effort and won't really understand why. Things have gone so well up to now! But it turns out, there's circumstances you're not aware of.\nIt's time to work hard. Otherwise, everything you've been working so hard for will come crashing down.\nThe stars' arrangement predicts a hard hit for Aquarians who have a na\u00efve perspective on life. It's time to put your feet on the ground and set things straight.\nYour efforts towards your goals are inspiring. Still, it's good to stop and take a breath every now and then. Do it for your own health. Or for your productivity. When you've rested well, Aquarians, better ideas come to mind.\nIt's quite expected to feel a decrease in your energy during long-term jobs. If you want to get a boost, Aquarians are perfect for ginseng-based drinks. You can brew your own teas or buy them at a herbalist store.",

        "raw_content": "affairs, cheating spouse, dear thelma, Extra-marital affairs, Family, Malaysia, Relationships\nI am married with no kids and working in the education field. Here is my problem.\nI have been married since 2015. Unfortunately, I got pregnant once, a month after my wedding. The problem started from there. I was diagnosed as pre-diabetic two months before my wedding. Once I got to know I was in the danger zone, I started to take more care about my health, like food control and exercise.\nMy husband wasn\u2019t so happy with the pregnancy because he lost his job the month that I conceived. He had some plans with me, like go for holidays, exercise together and take two years to get to know each other and after that, then plan for a baby.\nHe just couldn\u2019t accept that I was pregnant. Throughout the pregnancy, I had very bad mood swings and craved for food. We always argued over petty issues and he even asked for a divorce while I was pregnant. He didn\u2019t love the baby till I was in my third trimester.\nThen I found out he flirted with another girl. He didn\u2019t tell that girl that he was married. I confronted him and he said he won\u2019t do it again. I trusted him but our sex life has not really been so good ever since I got pregnant.\nI forgot to tell you that my baby didn\u2019t survive. We lost the baby. He struggled for his life for one and half days. It took me three years to come out of this grief. I just wish I have my baby now. My husband should change after this incident but he didn\u2019t.\nLast year, I caught him flirting again but this time by chatting through an adult dating website. He befriended a divorcee who is craving for sex. Again I confronted him but he said, \u201cBelieve me, I won\u2019t do this anymore.\u201d\nLately, we have been staying separately because he was working in another state while I was in KL. After I had a major surgery, I went back to stay together with him during my recuperation period. The moment I entered the house, I saw a few long hairs in my bedroom, an extra toothbrush and make up on my pillowcase.\nBefore that, he had told me that his friend was staying in our house while the latter looked for a room to stay as his tenancy contract had ended and he couldn\u2019t find a room within a short period.\nJust because I trust my husband so much, I agreed to allow him to stay in my house.\nWhen I confronted him this time, he said the friend brought his friend to the house and that the friend was married with three kids.\nI asked for an explanation for everything and he said, \u201cEven though all the evidence is against me, please trust me. I didn\u2019t do anything and I never betrayed you\u201d. I was totallly lost.\nI don\u2019t know whether I should trust my husband or not. My heart says he is guilty but my brain says don\u2019t jump into any conclusion because I didn\u2019t witness anything. We argued and finally I gave him one last chance.\nOf late, he justified his behaviour by saying he likes to flirt. If he finds that a lady or girl looks attractive, slim and sexy, he must check her out, and he has a high sex drive. So I decided to change my ways.\nI groomed myself up to look prettier, wore sexy clothes and impressed him in the bedroom. But now he says I don\u2019t like to listen to him, never considers his feelings and that I have lost my trust in him. Sometimes he will ask, \u201cIf you don\u2019t trust me, why do you still want to be with me?\u201d\nI was like, what the heck is this?? Even though I knew you were cheating on me, I still gave you a chance to change and save our marriage. He complains a lot about me, and I can feel my love for him slowly fading. I don\u2019t know what to do.\nI\u2019m not sure whether he is doing all this to get a divorce from me. Or am I too selfish for holding on to him for too long? What am I supposed to do now? Do I need to go for marriage counselling? Please advise. I truly love him. I just want him to change and have a happy life and family with me.\nI\u2019m so sorry about the baby. What a shattering experience.\nWith all the problems you\u2019ve had, let\u2019s see where this marriage is at.\nYou became pregnant a lot earlier than you both hoped, and at a difficult time to boot. It was no wonder you were both grumpy but it was unconscionable for your husband to demand a divorce. A good man does not walk away from a pregnant wife.\nAlso, the blaming might have been a sign of stress but responsible adults know it takes two people to make a baby. If he wasn\u2019t ready to accept consequences, he should have kept it in his trousers.\nFastforward to today and he is messing about on dating sites and chasing women because he claims to be a slave to his sex drive. What is he, a bag of uncontrollable hormones? What nonsense.\nI don\u2019t think it matters whether he has cheated on you or not. He has made it clear that he is not invested in this relationship. Worse, his actions show he is selfish and lacks basic decency. You deserve better.\nCan counselling help? It is possible to retrieve a relationship that started well but that soured. But yours started off badly and then got worse. There is no foundation. Also, with your husband being so unprincipled, there is a big chance he\u2019ll just lie to get out of counselling and then continue cheating. Frankly, I\u2019m not optimistic.\nAs you don\u2019t have children, you only need to consider your own needs. I suggest you see a lawyer and arrange for a divorce. Then go find a good man, one who takes responsibility for his actions, and who is caring, kind and principled, and who wants a family. There are lots of those about, so go out and date.\nBut please, think before you enter a new relationship. The last thing you need is to repeat your mistake.\nConsider where you went wrong and make sure you learn from the experience. Look at the kinds of things he did and said that should have warned you he wasn\u2019t right for you.Understanding will prevent you from doing it again.\nAlso, living with a partner who behaves badly can have a nasty effect on your self-esteem and trust. Plus, you may have picked up some bad habits. Ask yourself: am I the kind of person I would want as a life partner? Where do I need to work on myself? Use this experience to understand yourself better and to grow as a person.\nThis kind of introspection is best when you have help. Talk it over with a close sensible friend or consider having a chat with a therapist. A few sessions with a pro where you can safely and discreetly talk through everything might be useful to you. Good luck!\nTags: Cheated, Husband, Star2com",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Galleries \u00bb The 10 Most Cheating Countries in The World\nAdultery exists in all societies, but some societies have more of it than others. Many of the most cheating countries on this list are not going to surprise anyone, although some people might be surprised by the order in which they occur. It is important to remember that countries are going to vary in terms of how they respond to cheating. For instance, for some of the countries on this list, cheating may be the norm. For others, it might be a dirty little secret.\nThe infidelity rate in Finland is around thirty-six percent, and cheating is much more socially acceptable there than it is in other parts of the world. What\u2019s more, a good portion of Finnish cheaters will have multiple love affairs during a marriage. Finnish men are also much more adulterous than Finnish women, or at least Finnish married women.\nThe United Kingdom has a measured infidelity rate of thirty-six percent. However, cheaters in the United Kingdom are much more likely to be guilt-ridden about it than the cheaters in many other countries. They may be one of the world leaders when it comes to cheating, but they don\u2019t celebrate it the way some other countries might.\nThe infidelity rate in Spain is around thirty-nine percent. Interestingly, Spain has a very high divorce rate, so it seems that the infidelity rate might be slightly tempered by the fact that people in Spain will simply break off relationships rather than cheat in some cases. The religious tradition probably stops the infidelity rate from being shockingly high, which might be the case in a culture that values machismo so much.\nBelgium has an infidelity rate of around forty percent, and at least ten percent of the population frequents websites that are dedicated to providing people with extramarital affair opportunities. Having an additional partner is common in the country, and the stigma against it is starting to fade.\nThis beautiful country has an infidelity rate of around forty-one percent, which is lower than some people might expect, but still higher than it is in other parts of the world. Norway is full of communities where everyone knows everyone, which can make it somewhat problematic if people sleep around too much. People usually turn to the Internet or to tourists for the sake of extramarital affairs. Their infidelity rate also seems to increase during the summertime.\nFrance has an infidelity rate of around forty-three percent, which might seem to be low given the reputation of the French. However, the French mainly get that reputation from the fact that French people are more tolerant of extramarital affairs, with a slender majority of the population believing that unfaithfulness doesn\u2019t mean you don\u2019t love your partner. A minority of French people even regrets their affairs.\nGermany holds at 45 percent for its infidelity rate, which is higher than some people might expect from a country that doesn\u2019t have a romance language or a strong tradition of romantic associations. Like France, cheating is more socially acceptable there. Over sixty percent of Germans reported that infidelity was acceptable morally. Women slightly outnumber men when it comes to infidelity in Germany, although it is close to being equal between genders.\nItaly has an infidelity rate of forty-five percent, which shouldn\u2019t surprise anyone, given the reputation that Italian men in particular seem to have. The Italian Republic actually has a fairly low divorce rate, so at least this high adultery rate doesn\u2019t break up marriages.\nThe Scandinavian countries have always had a reputation for being full of people who are very laid-back about relationships. Family hotels and adult shops can coexist on the same street in Denmark, and the adulterer website Victoria Milan gets some of its best customers from Denmark.\nThe human trade in Thailand helps keep its economy running, and almost all kinks are going to be represented here. It isn\u2019t all that surprising that the native Thai population seems to have behaviors that mimic those of its tourists. Married Thai men and women hold the world record in promiscuity.\nTopics: adulterous adultery adultery statistics cheaters cheating coping with infidelity extramarital affairs how to deal with infidelity how to have an affair infidelity infidelity rates infidelity signs infidelity statistics marital infidelity marriage infidelity promiscuity\nPrevious Post Hot Celebs: 10 Tomboys Then and Now\nNext Post 10 Ways to Spot a Liar Easily: The Tells Tell All",

        "raw_content": "What if there was a simple equation you could apply to your life to make sure you were maximizing your happiness potential?\nSeems silly, I know, but according to Jonathan Haidt of \u201cThe Happiness Hypothesis\u201d, there is.\nLet me say right up front that I am no fan of the self-help movement. I think, like most things, there are probably a few gems out there but most of it is just a way to try to make money off of the fact that everyone has something they would like to improve.\n\u201cThe Happiness Hypothesis\u201d is not a self help book. It takes a neuro-scientific, cultural, historical and philosophical view of happiness and tries to break down the learnings into what actually leads to happiness and surprise, surprise, it\u2019s no one thing.\nThere is an actual equation that is proposed that makes a lot of sense to me and I hope it does for you, too. What I like most about this multi-dimensional approach is that it is a reminder that simply saying \u201cI just want to be more happy\u201d is like saying \u201cI just want to be rich or thin or successful.\u2019 Just?\nIn the U.S., our Declaration of Independence references \u201cthe PURSUIT of happiness\u201d. It is a journey and it takes work, and above all, there is no GUARANTEE of happiness.\nHowever, there is a formula and I\u2019m going to \u201cMarc-ify\u201d it which is a tacky way of saying \u201cdumb it down for me.\u201d\nH=S+C+V\nH= Happiness (I\u2019m guessing you probably figured that one out)\nS= Set point: each of us is born with a certain \u201cset point\u201d, basically the fact that someone\u2019s natural state of happiness may be higher or lower than someone else. The book goes through great lengths to identify how one can impact this set point, particularly for the better, through meditation, CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) and/or SSRIs (Prozac etc), all of which impact seratonin and dopamine, important in regulation.\nC=Conditions, both those that are unchangeable (your race, gender, etc.) and those that are changeable (living conditions, marital status, economic) and can have an impact on stress levels and level of happiness.\nV=Voluntary Activities, of which there are two types: 1) those that give pleasure (sex, food) and are sensory in nature but are short-lived and if overdone (insert sex jokes here), can be the opposite of pleasurable, and 2) those that give gratification or activities that make you feel good about yourself and are aligned with learning new skills, building new connections and relationships.\nIt is the gratification part of the equation that I think so many of us neglect. It gets harder to change our conditions (even those that are \u201cchangeable\u201d) but small, incremental steps toward things and people that provide growing and lasting gratification can have enormous impact \u2013 that first run, a music lesson, lunch with a friend, learning a new language or in my case, writing, music and comedy.\nThe equation makes sense and if nothing else, it is a good temperature check to see where I am. So, to be perfectly transparent, this is what my happiness equation looks like:\nS = meditation 4 to 5 times/week helps me try to remain focus on what really matters and clear my head. I give myself a B- as I have a long way to go.\nC=white, healthy, male with a good job and place to live and parents who encouraged me to get an education. I think I won in that respect, no thanks to anything other than luck. (And when I say \u201cI won\u201d, I just mean that I still think society subtly or not-so-subtlly provides advantages for white males, at least in this country, which is, thankfully, changing.)\nOn the conditions in which I could change, well, let\u2019s just say some of those are changing in \u201creal time\u201d. So an A for the first, a C for the second\u2026that\u2019s an average of a B.\nV= Let\u2019s start with pleasure. Well, there is food. Let\u2019s give me a C on that one for now (how\u2019s that for optimism?). As for gratification, A all the way. I love my kids, friends and really enjoy both the work and \u201cextra\u201d activities I try to squeeze in. So, I guess that averages a B, as well.\nOverall, my happiness seems to be better than I would have guessed. It\u2019s not \u201cHonor Society\u201d happiness but it\u2019s not \u201cremedial school\u201d, either.\nTags: CBT, cognitive behavior therapy, gratitude, happiness, happiness hypothesis, Jonathan Haidt, meditation, pleasure, prozac, SSRI\nCategories : Activities, Comedy, Gratitude, Happiness, Meditation",

As she's a great actor, Joan is also a caring mother.\nShe loves her children with everything but whenever necessary, she's sometimes strict as well. In an interview with the Guardian, when asked about her children's upbringing, she stated,\n\"As a parent, you have to figure out how to shape your kid's character. You want to have human beings who learn about good character. You have to be able to see your child with clarity, see the good side and the bad side of them, and work on the bad side and make them better so they fulfil their potential.\"\nIf there's any celeb who knows how to properly instill good habits and motivation to their respective child, then it's her.\nJoan believes in being humble and strict at the same time for her children\nJust like any normal household, the family of four goes out and enjoys their time together. Joan even brings her clan in various red carpet events as well. The family of four lives at their residence in Chicago.\nWe wish that they stay like this for many years to come and Joan's children make her proud.\nJoan Cusack: Quick Facts\n1) Born on October 11, 1962, in New York City.\n2) Raised in Chicago suburbs by actor father, Dick Cusack and teacher mother, Nancy.\n3) Attended the University of Wisconsin\u2013Madison (1984).\n4) Belongs to Irish Ancestry\n5) Debut in the movie Cutting Loose, 1980.\n6) Nominated for Best Supporting Actress in the movie Working Girl (1988).\n7) Joined the TV series Shameless in 2010.\n8) Net worth is $8 million.\n#joan cusack",

        "title": "Tina Fey Does Sarah Palin on \"SNL\" [VIDEO]",
        "raw_content": "Tina Fey Does Sarah Palin on \"SNL\" [VIDEO]\nComedienne and actress Tina Fey reprised her role as Sarah Palin on Saturday Night Live last night, and Justin Bieber appeared in several sketches too. Sketches posted to Hulu have been hot on the web for hours now, especially on Google, Facebook, and Twitter.\nLast night was a homecoming for Fey, a former SNL cast member and writer. She shared the Weekend Update desk with Jimmy Fallon, who now hosts Late Night \u2014 Conan O'Brien's former home.\nFey now stars in and runs the half-hour NBC comedy 30 Rock, and is appearing opposite Steve Carrell in the new movie Date Night. She hasn't been a total stranger to sketch comedy, though; during the 2008 Presidential election, she garnered praise and massive viral video views for her portrayal of then-Governor Sarah Palin in SNL's political sketches. She reprised that role in one of last night's sketches.\nJustin Bieber is big on Twitter, so his appearance was much talked about last night and today. Even as Tina Fey has slipped off Google's top 20 trends, Justin Bieber is still holding on. The kid's a star, alright?\nUnfortunately for the teenage girls of the Internet, Justin's musical performances are not available at Hulu. It's not uncommon for music to be omitted from SNL's web streams because the Internet rights to an artist's music are handled separately from the broadcast rights. They can be harder to acquire because labels are much jumpier about controlling their content on the wild web.\nHere's a collection of videos that Fey starred in, with a few cameos from Bieber. Enjoy.\nSarah Palin Network\nFey's Sarah Palin follows up her FOX News correspondent gig by opening her own cable network with many politically appropriate shows.\nTeacher (With Justin Bieber)\nFey plays a teacher who is inappropriately falling in love with a dreamy teenager in her class (Bieber).\nWeekend Update: Women's News\nFey returns to the Weekend Update desk to provide a snarky, intelligent perspective on the state of women in the media.\nTiger Woods at the Masters\nFey portrays a woman with the penchant for the inappropriate who's invited to join two golf announcers to cover Tiger Woods's return to the game. There's a parody of the Tiger Woods Nike commercial at the end.\nBrownie Husband\nThis faux commercial makes an uncomfortable but hilarious parody of the role of chocolate in the 30-something single woman's life.\nFey plays a miniature prostitute in the style of a 1950s melodrama.\nFey portrays the mother of a high school girl who has trouble relating to kids her own age. There's a cameo from Bieber towards the end.\nBackstage: Tina Fey & Justin Bieber Promo\nBehind-the-scenes look at Fey and Bieber taping the promos that aired on NBC in the days leading up to the SNL episode's premiere.\nTopics: Celebrities, comedy, Google, hulu, Justin Bieber, Media, NBC, Saturday Night Live, sketch comedy, Television, tina fey, Twitter, Video, viral video",

        "raw_content": "EFCA Today Book Review: College Ministry in a Post-Christian Culture\nHere is the most recent EFCA Today book review, College Ministry in a Post-Christian Culture by my friend Steve Lutz.\nI have the privilege of coordinating these reviews. It's great to see them be completed and posted.\n[Matt's Messages] \"Glory to the Newborn King\"\n12/25/2011 10:00:00 AM Matt's Messages, The Book of Acts 0 comments\nI invite you open your Bibles with me to the book of Luke chapter 2.\nIt seems like we end up here every year at Christmastime, and with good reason.\nI love the story in Luke chapter 2. It\u2019s good news of great joy!\nThis year for Advent, we used \u201cHark! The Herald Angels Sing\u201d to give us some awesome things to think about during the Christmas season.\nNow, be honest. How many of us used to think that that song was about a angel named \u201cHarold?\u201d\nNicknamed, \u201cHarry.\u201d\nHarry the Angel?\nI said last night, as we lit each candle in our wreath, that Hark! is now my favorite Christmas carol.\nThat\u2019s because of the rich theological truth embedded in it. It\u2019s full of the true meaning of Christmas.\nWe\u2019ll sing it together in a few more minutes.\nToday, our title and the central thing I want to say comes from the last line that gets repeated over and over again in the carol: \u201cGlory to the Newborn King.\u201d\nInterestingly, John Wesley, who originally wrote this hymn didn\u2019t write those words. He didn\u2019t write, \u201cGlory to the Newborn King.\u201d\nHe wrote, \u201cGlory to the King of Kings.\u201d\nWhich is, of course, the same person.\nIn reality, there have been a lot of changes made to this hymn over the years.\nJohn Wesley wrote it in 1739 as a long poem as a \u201cHymn for Christmas Day,\u201d and it didn\u2019t have that chorus that we\u2019re used to singing at the end of each verse. [slide]\nAnd it started like this, \u201cHark How All the Welkin Rings. Glory to the King of Kings.\u201d\nNow, I don\u2019t know about you, but I\u2019m glad that the words got changed over the years. Sometimes I hear people complaining about changing words to hymns and changing tunes that go with hymns.\nWell, for the first 100 years or more Hark! was sung to the tune that we normally sing \u201cChrist the Lord is Risen Today.\u201d\nIt wasn\u2019t until 1855 that William H Cummings took Felix Mendelssohn\u2019s tune and put these words to it so that it is what is familiar to us today.\nAnybody know just what the \u201cwelkin\u201d is?\n\u201cWelkin\u201d is an old English word to stand for the sky, the heavens, the celestial sphere.\nWhat you see when you look up at night time.\nAnd what the shepherds saw when they looked up in Luke chapter 2, verse 13:\nA sky full of angels.\n\u201cSuddenly a great company of the heavenly host [an angelic army] appeared with the angel, praising God and saying, \u2018Glory to God in the highest and on earth peace to men on whom his favor rests.\u201d\nSo that\u2019s why Wesley wrote, \u201cHark! How the Welkin (the Sky!) Rings. Glory to the King of Kings.\u201d\nIt was actually Wesleys frenemy (that\u2019s a friend who is sometimes an enemy or an opponent) George Whitefield that changed the words to what we know today.\nHark! The herald angels (the angels sent to be heralds of Jesus) sing, \u201cGlory to the Newborn King.\u201d\nAnd today, I want to ask, what is glory?\nAnd why are these angels singing it?\nOf course, we don\u2019t know if they actually sang. Verse 13 says that they praised God and said \u201cGlory to God in highest.\u201d\nBut I think we all hear them singing those words. Not just boringly chanting them, that\u2019s for sure.\nBut what did they mean?\nHere\u2019s one way. It\u2019s the beautiful greatness of God.\nOne of the things I like to pray for people is that Jesus would be BIG in their life.\nWhat was so glorious?\nWell, so many things.\nWe\u2019ve been singing and sharing about them all this Advent season.\nThe hymn is full of wondrous things.\n\u201cPeace on earth and mercy mild, God and sinners reconciled.\u201d\n\u201cOffspring of the Virgin\u2019s Womb\u201d\nSo many ways of saying it.\nJesus is God become man who brings us salvation.\nSalvation is what is so glorious.\nAnd there are so many ways of glorying in it.\nLet me share with you verse #4.\nYou may or may not know this verse.\nMy guess is that most of us don\u2019t. It\u2019s not in our hymnal, and I have several hymnals at home, it\u2019s not in any of those.\nIt wasn\u2019t actually in Wesley\u2019s original, either. But it\u2019s taken from four stanzas of Wesley\u2019s original poem and re-worked into a verse, probably by Whitefield.\nAnd there are several versions of this out there, too. Proof again that Christians songs can be fluid and open to revising for current needs and trends.\nCan you read it from there?\n#4. Come, Desire of Nations Come,\nRise, the Woman's Conquering Seed,\nBruise in Us the Serpent's Head.\nAdam's Likeness Now Efface:\nStamp Thine Image in its Place;\nSecond Adam, from Above,\nFamiliar to anybody here?\nOf the four verses, this is one that is a prayer.\nAnd it\u2019s like a theological pound cake. Dense and rich with biblical truth.\nIt\u2019s about salvation. How glorious the salvation is that Jesus brought when He was born that first Christmas day.\n\u201cCome, Desire of Nations Come.\u201d\nNow, that my friends is a reference to Haggai chapter 2.\nI ask you to turn there, but we\u2019ll be done with it before you could find it.\nJohn Wesley knew his Bible, didn\u2019t he?\nGod says in Haggai 2:7 says, \u201cI will shake all nations, and the desired of all nations will come, and I will fill this house with [what do you think the word is?] glory,' says the LORD Almighty.\u201d\nAnd Wesley saw Jesus\u2019 birth as the fulfillment of Haggai 2.\nHe prays, \u201cFix in us thy humble home.\u201d\nAnd that\u2019s a prayer for Jesus to come not just to Earth but to each believing heart.\nAs Paul prayed in Ephesians 3, \u201cI pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith.\u201d\nAnd not just live there, but remodel the place.\n\u201cRise, the Woman\u2019s Conquering Seed, Bruise in Us the Serpent\u2019s Head.\u201d\nWhat\u2019s he talking about there?\nThat\u2019s salvation!\nIt\u2019s talking about Genesis 3. And the Fall.\nWhen God cursed the serpent he said, \u201cAnd I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and hers; he will crush your head, and you will strike his heel.\u201d\nEver since Genesis 3 there has been a battle between the seed (offspring) of the serpent and the seed of the woman.\nAnd John Wesley understood that this was the gospel.\nThat Jesus would crush the serpent.\nAnd so Wesley prayed, \u201cRise, the Woman\u2019s Conquering Seed (That\u2019s Jesus), Bruise in Us the Serpent\u2019s Head.\u201d\nAnd there, he\u2019s talking about the effects of Satan and the Fall being defeated in us.\nThat sin would be conquered in us.\nAnd that we would become Christ-like\n\u201cAdam\u2019s Likeness Now Efface.\u201d\nEfface means erase.\nTake away our sin. Rub it out with a Pink Pearl Eraser.\nAnd then, \u201cStamp Thine Image in Its Place.\u201d\nThe first man Adam is what we are all like.\nBut this little baby born in Bethelehem is the Second Adam. Read Romans 5 or 1 Corinthians 15.\nJesus is the second head of humanity.\n\u201cSecond Adam from above Reinstate Us in Thy Love.\u201d\nAnd that\u2019s something to glory in.\n\u201cHark! The Herald Angels Sing, \u2018Glory to the Newborn King!\u2019\u201d\nGlory that the Desire of Nations has come!\nGlory that we are His humble home by the Holy Spirit!\nGlory that Woman\u2019s Conquering Seed Has Risen and Has Bruised in Us the Serpent\u2019s Head!\nGlory that God is stamping His own image into our hearts and reinstating us in His love.\nTwo words of application this morning.\nFirst, is INVITE.\nEach of us needs to receive Jesus as our own Lord and Savior if we are going to glory like this song calls us to.\nPray to the Lord, \u201cFix in me your humble home.\u201d\nInvite Him to be your Lord and Savior. Your King and Rescuer.\nJesus came to bring salvation. Invite Him in.\nSecond word: EXULT.\nLet your heart overflow with the GREATNESS of the Lord.\nRejoice. Jump. Sing. Dance. Lift your hands. Yell.\nMay Jesus be BIG in your heart and mine. Getting all the credit. All the glory.\nHe is great. Sing of His greatness.\nGLORY to the King of Kings.\nGlory in the Newborn in the King.\nAnita, come on up here and let\u2019s sing this. Hymn #133.\nLet\u2019s sing all four verses this morning.\nAnd sing them with all of our hearts.\n[Matt's Messages] \"Paul's First Missionary Journey: Part Two\"\n\u201cPaul\u2019s First Missionary Journey: Part Two\u201d\nOur sermon series is on the book of Acts. We\u2019re calling it \u201cFrom Jerusalem to Pennsylvania.\u201d\nAnd we haven\u2019t gotten to Pennsylvania yet!\nBut we have gotten out of Jerusalem.\nIn fact, we\u2019re on a journey right now. We\u2019re on Paul\u2019s First Missionary Journey.\nThat great church in Antioch in Syria has sent Paul and Barnabas out on a gospel mission.\nThey went from Antioch to Cyprus. Two cities on the island, Salamis and Paphos where they encountered and defeated the Jewish sorcerer Bar-Jesus.\nThen they went across to Perga and then to Pisidian Antioch where they were busy sharing the gospel.\nThe word of the Lord spread there and many (especially Gentiles) believed in Jesus but they also encountered persecution and decided to head out of town to the next big city called Iconium.\nIconium is a pretty big city. It still is today. They call it Konya today. K-O-N-Y-A. It\u2019s still on the map. You\u2019ll notice that it\u2019s in the province of Galatia.\nSo our book Galatians that the adult Sunday school classes have been reading was probably read right here in Iconium.\nAnd that\u2019s where our story starts today.\nIn today\u2019s chapter, we\u2019re going to see four major things that describe the second half of the first missionary journey, and I think we can learn from all four.\n#1. Division.\n#2. Confusion.\n#3. Opposition.\n#4. Completion.\nNow, I\u2019m not saying that every short term missions trip is going to have these four features, but I think that all of us in gospel ministry\u2013and that should be all of us here\u2013should be ready for all four.\nThere is something to learn here for each of our lives.\nActs chapter 14, verse 1.\n\u201cAt Iconium Paul and Barnabas went as usual into the Jewish synagogue. There they spoke so effectively that a great number of Jews and Gentiles believed. But the Jews who refused to believe stirred up the Gentiles and poisoned their minds against the brothers. So Paul and Barnabas spent considerable time there, speaking boldly for the Lord, who confirmed the message of his grace by enabling them to do miraculous signs and wonders. The people of the city were divided; some sided with the Jews, others with the apostles. There was a plot afoot among the Gentiles and Jews, together with their leaders, to mistreat them and stone them. But they found out about it and fled to the Lycaonian cities of Lystra and Derbe and to the surrounding country, where they continued to preach the good news.\u201d\nNow, my word for this section is division.\nYou can see it right there in verse 4. \u201cThe people of the city were divided.\u201d\nThat should not surprise us, but it often does.\nThe gospel divides.\nIt\u2019s good news! But not everyone thinks so.\nVerse 1 says that Paul and Barnabas, when showed up in town went as usual to the Jewish synagogue.\nWhy did they do that? They did it because those folks were already about half-way there. They already knew the Old Testament, they just needed to know the name of the Messiah.\nAnd verse 1 also says that they spoke so effectively that many got saved!\nBut verse 2 says that there were Jews who refused to believe \u201cand stirred up the Gentiles and poisoned their minds against the brothers.\u201d\nDid that stop Paul and Barnabas? Verse 3\n\u201cSo Paul and Barnabas spent considerable time there, speaking boldly for the Lord, who confirmed the message of his grace by enabling them to do miraculous signs and wonders.\u201d\nThat didn\u2019t stop them at all. In fact, they got bold and God (note that it\u2019s God who does it) enabled them to do miracles that confirmed the message.\nBut miracles don\u2019t change everyone\u2019s mind. They didn\u2019t with Jesus, and they don\u2019t with the apostles. V.4\n\u201cThe people of the city were divided; some sided with the Jews, others with the apostles. [There is split down the middle of the city.] There was a plot afoot among the Gentiles and Jews, together with their leaders, to mistreat them and stone them. [Mob violence. The martyring of Stephen all over again.] But they found out about it and fled to the Lycaonian cities of Lystra and Derbe and to the surrounding country, where they continued to preach the good news.\u201d\nDivision can be a good thing. If everyone is going in the wrong direction, then a division where some (many?) begin to go in the right direction is a very good thing.\nAnd that\u2019s what happened here.\nA church was born in the middle of that division.\nAnd the world is still divided over Jesus.\nThe word is still divided over the gospel.\nVerse 3 calls it, \u201cthe message of his grace.\u201d\nThe gospel is the message that Jesus has sacrificed Himself to give us forgiveness.\nAnd lots of people don\u2019t like that message.\nThey\u2019d rather try to earn their way.\nThey\u2019d rather do it their own way.\nThey\u2019d rather not entrust themselves to this Jesus guy.\nThe world is still divided.\nWhen we share the gospel, we should expect division.\nJesus said that it would divide families....of course it\u2019s going to divide cities.\nAnd even though they had to hotfoot it out of town, they haven\u2019t changed their message. V.6 again.\n\u201cBut they found out about it and fled to the Lycaonian cities of Lystra and Derbe and to the surrounding country, where they continued to preach the good news.\u201d\nMore miracles. Verse 8.\n\u201cIn Lystra there sat a man crippled in his feet, who was lame from birth and had never walked. He listened to Paul as he was speaking. Paul looked directly at him, saw that he had faith to be healed and called out, \u2018Stand up on your feet!\u2019 At that, the man jumped up and began to walk.\u201d\nBut...#2. CONFUSION. V.11\n\u201cWhen the crowd saw what Paul had done, they shouted in the Lycaonian language, \u2018The gods have come down to us in human form!\u2019 Barnabas they called Zeus, and Paul they called Hermes because he was the chief speaker. The priest of Zeus, whose temple was just outside the city, brought bulls and wreaths to the city gates because he and the crowd wanted to offer sacrifices to them.\u201d\nWhoa! Can you imagine?!\nFirst, the miracle. Then the confusion.\nAnd Paul and Barnabas probably can\u2019t understand the local language, so they don\u2019t know what\u2019s going on.\nThis one guy had faith to be healed. He was believing what he was hearing about Jesus.\nBut most of the folks here can only see the miracle and put their idolatrous interpretation on it.\nThese guys must be Zeus and Hermes come to visit!\nThat\u2019s confusion for you. V.14\n\u201cBut when the apostles Barnabas and Paul heard of this, they tore their clothes and rushed out into the crowd, shouting: \u2018Men, why are you doing this? We too are only men, human like you. We are bringing you good news, telling you to turn from these worthless things to the living God, who made heaven and earth and sea and everything in them. In the past, he let all nations go their own way. Yet he has not left himself without testimony: He has shown kindness by giving you rain from heaven and crops in their seasons; he provides you with plenty of food and fills your hearts with joy.\u2019 Even with these words, they had difficulty keeping the crowd from sacrificing to them.\u201d\nGlad they didn\u2019t let it go to their heads!\nYou know that would be a major temptation for someone in that position.\nThink of all of the stories like this that you\u2019ve see or heard.\nSomeone is mistaken for a god. What do they do? They play it up for awhile.\nBeing a god has its privileges.\nBut those stories never turn out well do they?\nAnd that\u2019s not why Paul and Barnabas have been risking their lives.\nThey\u2019ve been risking it to bring the gospel. The good news. V.15\n\u201cWe are bringing you good news, telling you to turn form these worthless\u201d idols to the living God!\nThe answer to confusion is to keep sharing the truth.\nKeep trying. Keep clarifying. Keep explaining the way it really is.\nThere is a lot of confusion out there about what Christianity truly is.\nYou probably get that all of the time when you\u2019re talking with people.\nSome people think that Christianity is about being good, doing good things, being a good person, being moral, going to church, making God happy by being good for Him.\nHe knows when you\u2019ve been bad or good so be good for goodness sake!\nThat\u2019s not Christianity.\nThat\u2019s confusion.\nChristianity is about good news.\nWe have been bad, and Jesus has paid for it.\nHe died on the Cross to satisfy the righteous wrath of the Father against our sin.\nAnd now He offers us forgiveness if we will turn from our sins and our idols, worthless things, and trust in Him, the living God.\nAnd everyone knows that they need Him, but they suppress the truth in unrighteousness. That\u2019s where Paul is going in verse 16 and 17.\nHe\u2019s the \u201cliving God, who made heaven and earth and sea and everything in them. In the past, he let all nations go their own [rebellious] way. Yet he has not left himself without testimony: He has shown kindness by giving you rain from heaven and crops in their seasons; he provides you with plenty of food and fills your hearts with joy.\u201d\nEvery good gift is from him.\nBut people suppress that knowledge because they realize that if its\u2019 true then they are accountable to the living God.\nAnd they are. We are.\nBut more than accountable, we can be redeemed by Jesus if we turn from our sin and turn to Him.\nThat\u2019s not confusion. That\u2019s Christianity. That\u2019s the gospel.\nKeep telling people.\nNow, you know that it can\u2019t last. Crowds are fickle. One second, they are going to sacrifice a bull to you.\nThe next second (or at least after a little bit of time) they try to kill you. V.19\n\u201cThen some Jews came from Antioch and Iconium and won the crowd over. They stoned Paul and dragged him outside the city, thinking he was dead.\u201d\nOf course, that\u2019s putting it lightly. It\u2019s really persecution.\nThey threw stones at him.\nAnd they threw so many stones and so heavy stone and so jagged stones at him that they thought he was dead.\nYou see many in the world do not like our message.\nIt\u2019s amazing that we don\u2019t have that happening right now in the United States.\nWe have an amazing moment right now in history where we are free to share and believe the gospel message without much fear for our lives.\nIt\u2019s not that way in many places around the world. We are living in an exception right now....right now.\nBut that doesn\u2019t mean that it\u2019s easy anyway. There is still opposition.\nAnd there always will be. That was Paul\u2019s message to the believers, after he got up and could talk again. V.20\n\u201cBut after the disciples had gathered around him, he got up and went back into the city. The next day he and Barnabas left for Derbe. They preached the good news in that city and won a large number of disciples. Then they returned to Lystra, Iconium and Antioch, strengthening the disciples and encouraging them to remain true to the faith. \u2018We must go through many hardships to enter the kingdom of God,\u2019 they said.\u201d\nWhere did he go after he got up?\nBack into the city?\nAnd then they went down to Derbe where they made more disciples.\nAnd then they ... what?\nThey returned to Lystra again. And then Iconium. And then Antioch.\nDidn\u2019t they have trouble in each of those cities.\nBut the answer to opposition in gospel ministry is courage.\nEven after being stoned, Paul goes back through.\nWas he scared? Probably.\nBut he was also bold. And he knew that he had a job to do. V.22 again.\n\u201c...strengthening the disciples and encouraging them to remain true to the faith. \u2018We must go through many hardships to enter the kingdom of God,\u2019 they said.\u201d\nSome people with a big smile on their book cover tell you that following Jesus means everything working out great.\nPaul said with his big bruised face, \u201cWe must go through many hardships to enter the Kingdom of God.\u201d\nNot that going through those hardships earn us a place in the kingdom. Christ did that.\nBut following Him will mean hardship, trouble, persecution, opposition.\nCount on it. Strengthen yourself for it. Encourage others about it.\nTake courage that means.\nPaul and Barnabas don\u2019t return the shortest way.\nThey backtrack along their route again all the way to Attalia and then catch a boat home.\nI think that shows great love for the Lord, the gospel, and the church.\nAnd it show courage.\nHave you experienced opposition being a Christian.\nIt\u2019s not supposed to be.\n\u201cWe must go through many hardships to enter the kingdom of God.\u201d\n\u201cPaul and Barnabas appointed elders for them in each church and, with prayer and fasting, committed them to the Lord, in whom they had put their trust.\u201d\nAfter making new disciples and planting new churches, they appointed leadership and then entrusted them to the Lord Jesus whom they had entrusted themselves to.\nAnd then they headed home. V.24\n\u201cAfter going through Pisidia, they came into Pamphylia, and when they had preached the word in Perga, they went down to Attalia. From Attalia they sailed back to Antioch, where they had been committed to the grace of God for the work they had now completed.\u201d\nTime for their report. Verse 27.\n\u201cOn arriving there, they gathered the church together and reported all that God had done through them and how he had opened the door of faith to the Gentiles. And they stayed there a long time with the disciples.\u201d\nThe first missionary journey was a success.\nIt\u2019s important to get a report back about how goes the mission.\nNext August, I look forward to hearing back from our Serbia Missions Team about their experience. What they saw, heard, did, learned, and achieved. What God is up to in that part of the world.\nNext month will be a month of missions reports here at Lanse Free Church.\nWe\u2019re going to hear from several of our missionary families and missions organizations about their last term of service.\nThat\u2019s important when a mission is completed to have a report.\nThe key focus of Paul\u2019s report is that God has been at work, especially among the Gentiles. V.27 again.\n\u201cReported all that God had done through them and how he had opened the door of faith to the Gentiles.\u201d\nNow, that\u2019s going to raise a few issues which we\u2019re going to see in a few weeks when we get back to Jerusalem in chapter 15.\nBut you and I should very happy about it.\nBecause the gospel has gotten one big step closer to Pennsylvania.\n[Matt's Messages] \"Paul's First Missionary Journey: Part One\"\n\u201cPaul\u2019s First Missionary Journey: Part One\u201d\nOur series is called From Jerusalem to Pennsylvania, and we\u2019ve been watching the gospel spread just like Jesus said that it would. He told His apostles, \u201cYou will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and Judea and Samaria and to the ends of the earth.\u201d\nThe spread of the gospel has been rapid but bumpy, and it hasn\u2019t gotten too far from Jerusalem yet.\nBut it\u2019s starting to.\nLast week, we saw the gospel take root in a forming a great new church in Syria in the city of what? [Antioch.]\nThe church at Antioch was a great church. Last week, we saw how they were dedicated to the gospel and biblical truth and how they were generous with their treasures, giving to those who were in need. The church at Antioch is where believers were first called Christians\u2013bearing the name of Jesus Christ. And that church was a growing church.\nIt also became a sending church. Antioch was the first great intentional missions-minded church.\nThat\u2019s what we are going to read about in just a second.\nThis church sent out Paul and Barnabas on what we now call \u201cPaul\u2019s First Missionary Journey.\u201d\nPaul\u2019s First Missionary Journey takes up two chapters of Acts, chapters 13 and 14.\nToday, we\u2019re only going to get through chapter 13. We\u2019ll do chapter 14 next week, and then take a break from Acts for Christmas.\nNow, I\u2019m not going to say that Paul\u2019s first missionary journey is typical of all missions work\u2013that would be a real stretch.\nBut I do think there are things we can see happening here that do happen again and again when God\u2019s people get excited about God\u2019s global mission and get busy living it out.\nFive headings this morning as we seek to understand this story.\n#1. BEING SENT.\nActs 13, verse 1.\n\u201cIn the church at Antioch there were prophets and teachers: Barnabas [we know him by now], Simeon called Niger [Niger means \u201cblack\u201d in Latin. He was probably a black man as was probably this fellow next to him], Lucius of Cyrene [we saw that as North Africa last week], Manaen (who had been brought up with Herod the tetrarch) [some ties to royalty] and Saul [the persecutor turned Christian and Bible teacher].\u201d\nSo, this is a church full of great Bible teachers. Prophets who have special gifting and teachers who can explain what the Scriptures mean and apply it to life.\nAnd from this team, God is going to send out some missionaries. V.2\n\u201cWhile they were worshiping the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, \u2018Set apart for me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them.\u2019 So after they had fasted and prayed, they placed their hands on them and sent them off. The two of them, sent on their way by the Holy Spirit, went down to Seleucia and sailed from there to Cyprus.\u201d\nStop there for a few seconds.\nNotice that going on a missions trip wasn\u2019t just a good idea that somebody had.\nGod the Holy Spirit was involved.\nWho did the sending? Verse 2 and verse 4 make it clear that the Holy Spirit did the sending. How did He speak to them in verse 2? It doesn\u2019t say. I would imagine that God used one of the prophets from verse 1, but it doesn\u2019t say.\nIt does make it clear that the Holy Spirit is doing the sending. This is a God-thing.\nGod the Holy Spirit is involved in missions.\nNotice, too, that the call comes while they are worshipping, while they are fasting, while they are praying.\nBut it\u2019s not just the Holy Spirit who does the sending. The church is involved, as well. Verese 3. \u201cThey placed their hands on them and sent them off.\u201d\nI get the picture of financial provision, of ongoing prayers, and concerns. They don\u2019t just say, \u201cWell, it was good knowing you. Off you go!\u201d\nThere are only two godly responses to missions. Go or send. That\u2019s it.\nAnd Barnabas and Saul are going. The church at Antioch is sending.\nThis makes me think about our Serbie Missions Trip that is forming for August 2012.\nTim mentioned a few of the details during the announcements.\nWe have between 5 and 10 youth and adults that are going to form our Serbia Missions Team. They are planning to fly 4500 miles from here to Belgrade and connect with the Elijas family.\nRemember the Elijas family? They aren\u2019t as big as the Durochers, but they\u2019re getting there. They are friends of Heather and mine from our Moody Bible Institute days and they are indigenous missionaries in Serbia.\nThey have visited our church several times and on their last visit while they were singing and sharing, Becky Forcey got a vision for a short-term team to go from our church to where they work and help out.\nIf you remember, Ernie Degrasse once went to Serbia to help the Elijas with a building project, too.\nOur Missions Ministry Team has been praying and working for over a year now on the details, and I\u2019m very excited about this opportunity. How many here, would you raise your hand high, are seriously considering going?\nAnd it\u2019s not too late for people to get involved. Talk with Becky Forcey about it.\nWe are going to formally interview and form the team on January 11th and then we\u2019ll be telling you more about it including how you can be involved in raising the funds for this trip. On the last Sunday of July, we\u2019re going to be doing verse 3. \u201cPlacing our hands on this team and sending them off.\u201d\nNow, here\u2019s where they went.\nThe started at [where?] Antioch in Syria.\nAnd verse 4 says that they went down to Seleucia, and then caught a boat for Cyprus.\nWho was from Cyprus?\nBarnabas was. So, the first trip was to somewhere familiar.\nWhy are they going on this trip? What is the point?\nIt\u2019s to spread the gospel. Verse 5\n\u201cWhen they arrived at Salamis, they proclaimed the word of God in the Jewish synagogues. John was with them as their helper.\u201d\nSalamis is here on this end of the island.\nThey go to where the Jews are and proclaim the Messiah. They have a young man traveling with them named John (also called Mark, John Mark). He helps them with their needs.\nThen they travel to the other end of the island to Paphos. Verse 6.\n\u201cThey traveled through the whole island until they came to Paphos. There they met a Jewish sorcerer and false prophet named Bar-Jesus, who was an attendant of the proconsul, Sergius Paulus. The proconsul, an intelligent man, sent for Barnabas and Saul because he wanted to hear the word of God. But Elymas the sorcerer (for that is what his name means) opposed them and tried to turn the proconsul from the faith.\u201d\nWoo! Things are heating up all of a sudden.\nI\u2019m going to call this section:\n#2. CLASHING WITH EVIL.\nA Jewish sorcerer?! That\u2019s two things that shouldn\u2019t go together!\nHe is a false prophet named Bar-Jesus. What does that name mean in Hebrew?\nBarnabas is Son of Encouragement.\nBar-Jesus would be Son of Jesus or Son of Salvation.\nThis guy is anything but! He\u2019s trying to keep Sergius Paulus the proconsul (or governor) from the faith, from Christianity. From the truth.\nTime to clash. V.9\n\u201cThen Saul, who was also called Paul, filled with the Holy Spirit, looked straight at Elymas and said, \u2018You are a child of the devil and an enemy of everything that is right! You are full of all kinds of deceit and trickery. Will you never stop perverting the right ways of the Lord? Now the hand of the Lord is against you. You are going to be blind, and for a time you will be unable to see the light of the sun.\u2019 Immediately mist and darkness came over him, and he groped about, seeking someone to lead him by the hand.\u201d\nThat clash didn\u2019t take long.\nFrom here on in the story, Saul is called Paul. Apparently from verse 9, we find that Paul was Saul\u2019s other name.\nAnd here Paul is filled with the Holy Spirit and is bold to clash with the forces of evil.\nYou are not Bar-Jesus. You are Bar-Diabolos. Son of the devil.\nHe has strong words, doesn\u2019t he?\nThere are times for strong words, especially in the face of great evil.\nAnd the end result is that Elymas goes blind. Paul must have thought about how he was blind after he saw the light.\nAnd the proconsul, Sergius Paulus also sees the light. Verse 12.\n\u201cWhen the proconsul saw what had happened, he believed, for he was amazed at the teaching about the Lord.\u201d\nNotice that it wasn\u2019t just the power that Paul showed but the teaching that convinced Sergius Paulus to become a beliver.\nNow, I think that this guy is the first Gentile convert who wasn\u2019t a seeker in any way.\nNot a proselyte like the Ethiopian treasury official nor a God-fearer like Cornelius.\nThis was just a plain old Gentile out on a island.\nBut he believes! That\u2019s awesome. That\u2019s you and me.\nPraise God for those who are willing to clash with evil in the name of the Lord Jesus.\nBut our journey is just getting started. V.13\n\u201cFrom Paphos, Paul and his companions sailed to Perga in Pamphylia, where John left them to return to Jerusalem.\u201d\nNow, take note of that. We aren\u2019t going to talk about it today, but it becomes a point of contention eventually between these guys.\nThey are here at Perga and they go on to the Antioch here. This was Pisidian Antioch, not Syrian Antioch. There were 16 Antiochs in the ancient world named for a ruler called Antiochus.\nThis is the one here that Paul and Barnabas travel to. Notice that Paul has clearly become the leader. I think that\u2019s fine by Barnabas. He knows who is the greater teacher and the one who has the greater calling on his life. V.14\n\u201cFrom Perga they went on to Pisidian Antioch. On the Sabbath they entered the synagogue and sat down. After the reading from the Law and the Prophets, the synagogue rulers sent word to them, saying, \u2018Brothers, if you have a message of encouragement for the people, please speak.\u2019\u201d\nThat\u2019s all the encouragement that Paul needs! He launches into a gospel presentation.\n#3. PREACHING THE GOSPEL.\nNow, I want you to notice how Paul never gives the gospel the same way twice. He does things in similar ways in similar situations, but he\u2019s always tailoring his presentation to those whom he is talking to.\nI think we can learn a lot by how he talks about the gospel. He presents it here among the Jews, as a story. Their story. V.16\n\u201cStanding up, Paul motioned with his hand and said: \u2018Men of Israel and you Gentiles who worship God, listen to me! The God of the people of Israel chose our fathers; he made the people prosper during their stay in Egypt, with mighty power he led them out of that country, he endured their conduct for about forty years in the desert, he overthrew seven nations in Canaan and gave their land to his people as their inheritance. All this took about 450 years. \u2018After this, God gave them judges until the time of Samuel the prophet. Then the people asked for a king, and he gave them Saul son of Kish, of the tribe of Benjamin, who ruled forty years. After removing Saul, he made David their king. He testified concerning him: 'I have found David son of Jesse a man after my own heart; he will do everything I want him to do.'\u201d\nStop there for just a second. Do you see what he\u2019s doing?\nHe just preached Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, Deuteronomy, Joshua, Judges, and most of 1 Samuel in just 6 verses!\nHe\u2019s starting with what they know, especially the promises that God had given the Jewish people. Where\u2019s he going?\nHe\u2019s going to Jesus. V.22 again.\n\u201cAfter removing Saul, he made David their king. He testified concerning him: 'I have found David son of Jesse a man after my own heart; he will do everything I want him to do.' \u2018From this man's descendants God has brought to Israel the Savior Jesus, as he promised.\u201d\nNow, he\u2019s got their attention. He skips 1000 years between David and Jesus and explains his point. V.24\n\u201cBefore the coming of Jesus, John preached repentance and baptism to all the people of Israel. As John was completing his work, he said: 'Who do you think I am? I am not that one. No, but he is coming after me, whose sandals I am not worthy to untie.' Brothers, children of Abraham, and you God-fearing Gentiles, it is to us that this message of salvation has been sent. The people of Jerusalem and their rulers did not recognize Jesus [he came to that which was his own but his own received him not], yet in condemning him they fulfilled the words of the prophets that are read every Sabbath. Though they found no proper ground for a death sentence, they asked Pilate to have him executed. When they had carried out all that was written about him [read Isaiah 53!], they took him down from the tree and laid him in a tomb. But God raised him from the dead, and for many days he was seen by those who had traveled with him from Galilee to Jerusalem. They are now his witnesses to our people [There\u2019s that word \u201cwitnesses\u201d again!]. We tell you the good news [the gospel!]: What God promised our fathers he has fulfilled for us, their children, by raising up Jesus. As it is written in the second Psalm: \u2018'You are my Son; today I have become your Father.' The fact that God raised him from the dead, never to decay, is stated in these words: \u2018'I will give you the holy and sure blessings promised to David.' So it is stated elsewhere: \u2018'You will not let your Holy One see decay.' \u2018For when David had served God's purpose in his own generation, he fell asleep; he was buried with his fathers and his body decayed. But the one whom God raised from the dead did not see decay.\u201d\nThere is a lot there, and I\u2019m not going to repeat it all for you, but just check your footnotes to see how much Scripture Paul used in this little sermon.\nThe whole Old Testament pointed to Jesus.\nAnd (v.32), \u201cWhat God promised [the Jewish] fathers he has fulfilled ... by raising up Jesus.\u201d\nAnd now, Paul brings it home. V.38\n\u201c\u2018Therefore, my brothers, I want you to know that through Jesus the forgiveness of sins is proclaimed to you. Through him everyone who believes is justified from everything you could not be justified from by the law of Moses. [That\u2019s been the point of our study of Galatians all Fall in adult Sunday School.] Take care that what the prophets have said does not happen to you: \u2018'Look, you scoffers, wonder and perish, for I am going to do something in your days that you would never believe, even if someone told you.'\u2019\u201d\nIt\u2019s the same gospel that we preach today.\nTurn from your sins and trust in the Savior!\nAnd you will be forgiven.\nVerse 38 again, \u201cI want you to know that through Jesus the forgiveness of sins is proclaimed to you. Through him everyone who believes is justified from everything you could not be justified from by the law of Moses.\u201d\nThat message never gets old.\nEvery sin that you have committed. Every lie, every lust, every dishonoring of parents, every covetous thought, every idolatrous choice, every angry word.\nEvery sin forgiven. \u201cI want you to know that through Jesus [what he did on the cross, by his resurrection] the forgiveness of sins is proclaimed to you. Through him everyone who believes is justified from everything you could not be justified from by the law of Moses.\u201d\nThat\u2019s the best news in all of the world.\nHave you come to believe this gospel?\nAre you forgiven? Are you living as a forgiven man or woman or child?\nDon\u2019t scoff at it. V.40 again.\n\u201cTake care that what the prophets have said does not happen to you: \u2018'Look, you scoffers, wonder and perish, for I am going to do something in your days that you would never believe, even if someone told you.'\u2019\u201d\nDon\u2019t be like that. Don\u2019t say, \u201cCouldn\u2019t happen. Nobody comes back from the dead. Not three days later.\u201d Don\u2019t say, \u201cCouldn\u2019t happen to me. I\u2019m too far gone to be forgiven.\u201d\nBelieve the gospel and be saved!\nAnd then preach that gospel to those who desperately need to hear it. V.42\n\u201cAs Paul and Barnabas were leaving the synagogue, the people invited them to speak further about these things on the next Sabbath. [They are interested.] When the congregation was dismissed, many of the Jews and devout converts to Judaism followed Paul and Barnabas, who talked with them and urged them to continue in the grace of God.\u201d\nBut that\u2019s not all they encountered.\n#5. WITHSTANDING OPPOSITION. V.44\n\u201cOn the next Sabbath almost the whole city gathered to hear the word of the Lord. When the Jews saw the crowds, they were filled with jealousy and talked abusively against what Paul was saying.\u201d\nNot everyone is happy about this gospel of Jesus Christ.\nThere will be opposition. There will be persecution. There will be rejection.\nWe have to be ready for that. Paul and Barnabas were.\n\u201cThen Paul and Barnabas answered them boldly: \u2018We had to speak the word of God to you first. Since you reject it and do not consider yourselves worthy of eternal life, we now turn to the Gentiles. For this is what the Lord has commanded us: \u2018'I have made you a light for the Gentiles, that you may bring salvation to the ends of the earth.'\u2019\u201d\n\u201cWhen the Gentiles heard this, they were glad and honored the word of the Lord; and all who were appointed for eternal life believed. The word of the Lord spread through the whole region.\u201d\n\u201c But the Jews incited the God-fearing women of high standing and the leading men of the city. They stirred up persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and expelled them from their region. So they shook the dust from their feet in protest against them and went to Iconium. And the disciples were filled with joy and with the Holy Spirit.\u201d\nNot long ago, Paul was persecuting Christians.\nNow, Paul is a persecuted Christian.\nThis is often what happens when Paul comes to town: trouble.\nAnd we need to expect it.\nThis last week, the United States Supreme Court declined to hear the appeal of the churches of New York City who have been meeting in public schools throughout the city.\nYou know that real estate is impossibly expensive in New York.\nThere are 60 churches that have been renting space from the city for their worship services. The city contends that \u201cchurches meeting [inside public schools] outside school hours inappropriately influence children.\u201d\nThat\u2019s a true story. That\u2019s happening now. They have until February 12th to find somewhere else to meet.\nSome of those churches have been meeting there for more than 25 years.\nNow, I don\u2019t say that to get all political. (We could talk about why this is and what the best responses would be.)\nI say that to prepare you and me for what is inevitable in this world.\nThe clash between those who share the gospel and those who oppose it.\nWe just have to be ready to withstand opposition to the gospel.\nAnd keep preaching it!\nBecause God has plans to use it to save people. Look again at verse 48.\nI love that. I love all of the different ways that Luke uses to talk about conversion and salvation.\nHere is it \u201call who were appointed for eternal life believed.\u201d\nBring on the opposition. It can\u2019t stop God\u2019s saving purpose in this missionary journey.\nAll who are appointed for eternal life will believe.\nGod is sovereign over it.\n#5. WELCOMING NEW BELIEVERS.\n\u201cThe word of the Lord spread through the whole region.\u201d\nYou can\u2019t stop the gospel of Jesus Christ.\nThe withstanding of opposition and the welcoming of new believers happen at the same time!\nNo wonder that after they leave, shaking the dusty from their feet in protest, they are (v.52), \u201cfilled with joy and with the Holy Spirit.\u201d\nBecause He\u2019s at work. He sent them, and He goes with them.\nAnd He\u2019s with us today, as well.\nWe\u2019re going to leave Paul and Barnabas in Iconium and come back to them next week.\nBut let\u2019s ask ourselves whether or not we\u2019re willing:\nTo be sent or to send.\nTo clash with evil.\nTo preach the gospel of forgiveness in Jesus Christ.\nTo withstand opposition with faith and love.\nAnd to welcome new believers with joy.\nIf so, then we are on mission ourselves.\n[Matt's Messages] \"Are We Willing?\"\nWe\u2019re continuing our study of the book of Acts that we\u2019re calling, \u201cFrom Jerusalem to Pennsylvania.\u201d\nJesus told his disciples the Holy Spirit would empower them to be His witnesses in Jerusalem, Judea and Samaria and to the ends of the earth. Even here.\nAnd we\u2019ve been seeing that happen as we\u2019ve read each chapter.\nThe gospel exploded in Jerusalem and spread even to the half-breeds in Samaria and then even to the ... whom? Gentiles. That\u2019s what we saw last week, even the Gentiles are turning to Christ.\nAnd God has used some pretty unusual methods to spread the gospel message, including persecution.\nWhen Stephen was martyred, the believers were scattered, but they were not stopped in sharing the gospel. The gospel began to penetrate into places that it had never been before.\nThat\u2019s a big part of today\u2019s story, especially in chapter 11. We are introduced to another major local church in the city of Antioch in Syria. A great church that is a model for all of us.\nAnd in chapter 12, we get a terrific story of answered prayer and the need for humility.\nI was having a hard time tying all of the things in these two chapters together to make it into a good sermon, when I realized that I had been asking myself a question as I read the passage over and over.\nAre you and I willing to do the sorts of things that we see the early church doing here in these two chapters?\nAre we willing to go through what they went through?\nAre we willing to suffer what they suffered?\nBecause I don\u2019t think we\u2019ll be at all blessed the way they were unless our hearts lean in that direction.\nI actually came up with six \u201cAre We Willing\u201d questions of application for us to think about as we read Acts 11:19 through 12:25.\nHere\u2019s the first question.\n#1. ARE WE WILLING TO SPREAD THE WORD TO EVERYONE?\n\u201cNow those who had been scattered by the persecution in connection with Stephen traveled as far as Phoenicia, Cyprus and Antioch, telling the message only to Jews.\u201d\nThat last phrase is a surprise, isn\u2019t it?\nThese folks who are nameless missionaries carrying the gospel of Jesus haven\u2019t gotten the memo yet about Acts chapter 10. Even the Gentiles!\nThese folks are scattered by the persecution that came when Stephen died. Remember that chapter 7 and the first bit of chapter 8?\nHere\u2019s a map for you.\nHere\u2019s Jerusalem.\nWhere is Phoenecia? It\u2019s along this coast here. Modern day Lebanon.\nCyprus is this island right here. Interesting fact, Heather\u2019s cousin used to be a professional volleyball player on the island of Cyrpus.\nAnd Syrian Antioch (not Pisidian Antioch, we\u2019ll get to that place later in the book, Syrian Antioch is right about here).\nThe gospel has really moved.\nBut it needs to go to everyone. Not just to the Jews. V.20\n\u201cSome of them, however, men from Cyprus and Cyrene, went to Antioch and began to speak to Greeks also, telling them the good news about the Lord Jesus.\u201d\nLook how far they were from home.\nCyprus again. And where is Cyrene?\nIt\u2019s over here in northern Africa.\nIt\u2019s probable that the those believers were Jews present at Pentecost and are now disciples of Jesus forced to be on the move.\nThese nameless missionaries take the gospel to everyone. Even to the Greeks. V.21\n\u201cThe Lord's hand was with them, and a great number of people believed and turned to the Lord. News of this reached the ears of the church at Jerusalem, and they sent Barnabas to Antioch.\u201d\nRemember Barnabas?\nWhat did his nickname mean? Son of Encouragement. Guess what he\u2019s going to do. V.23\n\u201cWhen he arrived and saw the evidence of the grace of God, he was glad and encouraged them all to remain true to the Lord with all their hearts. He was a good man, full of the Holy Spirit and faith, and a great number of people were brought to the Lord.\u201d\nAre we willing to spread the word to EVERYone?\nBarnabas was and he was glad that they were doing it in Antioch.\nBut the new church needed good teaching, and Barnabas thought he knew who would be the best for them. That old murderer Saul. V.25\n\u201cThen Barnabas went to Tarsus to look for Saul, [Tarsus is about here.] and when he found him, he brought him to Antioch. So for a whole year Barnabas and Saul met with the church and taught great numbers of people. The disciples were called Christians first at Antioch.\u201d\nSecond question coming out of that last sentence.\n#2. ARE WE WILLING TO WEAR JESUS\u2019 NAME?\nVerse 26 says, \u201cThe disciples were called Christians first at Antioch.\u201d\nWhat were they called before?\nDisciples of Jesus.\nI think that this one was supposed to be an insult or at least a joke.\nI get the feel from this verse that it was outsiders who called the disciples Christians not insiders.\n\u201cOh, those are the Christ-ians!\u201d\nThey think Jesus came back from the dead.\nThey think they are like Christ.\nThey belong to the Messiah, the Christ.\nThey\u2019re Christians.\u201d\nAnother name was needed because they weren\u2019t just Jews anymore, either. Oh, those are just some Jews for Jesus.\nNo, they need their own name. Let\u2019s call them \u201cChristians.\u201d\nAre we willing to wear Jesus\u2019 name?\nMost of us are when it\u2019s convenient.\nWhat if it gets downright inconvenient?\n\u201cDuring this time some prophets came down from Jerusalem to Antioch. One of them, named Agabus, stood up and through the Spirit predicted that a severe famine would spread over the entire Roman world. (This happened during the reign of Claudius.) The disciples, each according to his ability, decided to provide help for the brothers living in Judea. This they did, sending their gift to the elders by Barnabas and Saul.\u201d\nHere\u2019s the question for this one?\n#3. ARE WE WILLING TO HELP OTHER CHRISTIANS IN NEED?\nThis is a really cool way to find out about trouble\u2013before it happens.\nAgabus brings a prophecy that a famine was on the way, and apparently, Judea was going to be hit the worst, and the Christians there were, many of them, living in poverty.\nAnd the church at Antioch steps up to the plate.\nThey take up a collection, \u201ceach according to his ability,\u201d and sent help to the brothers in Judea. And they sent it by way of Barnabas and Saul.\nThat\u2019s Christian generosity.\nAre we willing to help other Christians in need?\nThis Christmas season is a great time to consider whom we might reach out and help.\n#4. ARE WE WILLING TO DIE FOR JESUS?\nThat\u2019s truly wearing His name.\nAnd it happened, down in Judea to the apostle James. Chapter 12, verse 1.\n\u201cIt was about this time that King Herod arrested some who belonged to the church, intending to persecute them. He had James, the brother of John, put to death with the sword.\u201d\nIf you ever wondered how King Herod lived so long, it was by naming his whole family Herod like George Foreman.\nThis is actually the grandson of Herod the Great who was the Herod who tried to kill the baby Jesus.\nAnd it is the nephew of Herod Antipas, who was the Herod who conspired to kill the adult Jesus.\nNow, he\u2019s killing Jesus\u2019 followers.\nNot James who wrote the epistle with that name, one of Mary and Joseph\u2019s other sons.\nBut James the brother of John. One of the sons of thunder.\nHis thunder was now over. Off with his head.\nFollowing Jesus can mean death.\nDo we believe that He is worth it?\nPeter did. V.3\n\u201cWhen he [that is Herod] saw that this pleased the Jews, he proceeded to seize Peter also. This happened during the Feast of Unleavened Bread. After arresting him, he put him in prison, handing him over to be guarded by four squads of four soldiers each. Herod intended to bring him out for public trial after the Passover.\u201d\nAnd take off Peter\u2019s head, too.\nThat\u2019s the risk we run when we follow a King who allowed Himself to be crucified.\nAsk yourself the question, \u201cAre we willing to die for the name of Jesus?\u201d\nAre we willing to live for Him?\nNow, what happens next is one of the best, funniest stories in the whole book of Acts.\nIf you don\u2019t know what happens, you\u2019re in a for treat.\nIf you do already know, pretend you don\u2019t.\nRemember, James just lost his head. Hope is lost. Herod is taking over. Peter is in prison with four squads of four guards each. V.5\n\u201cThe night before Herod was to bring him to trial, Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains, and sentries stood guard at the entrance.\u201d\nWait just one second.\nHow do you think Peter answered this question? \u201cAm I willing to die for Jesus?\u201d\nNotice what Peter is doing the night before his execution?\nSleeping. That\u2019s a picture of faith, I think. I love this next part. V.7\n\u201cSuddenly an angel of the Lord appeared and a light shone in the cell. He struck Peter on the side and woke him up. \u2018Quick, get up!\u2019 he said, and the chains fell off Peter's wrists. Then the angel said to him, \u2018Put on your clothes and sandals.\u2019 And Peter did so. \u2018Wrap your cloak around you and follow me,\u2019 the angel told him. [Jailbreak!] Peter followed him out of the prison, but he had no idea that what the angel was doing was really happening; he thought he was seeing a vision. They passed the first and second guards and came to the iron gate leading to the city. It opened for them by itself, and they went through it. When they had walked the length of one street, suddenly the angel left him.\u201d\nAnd Peter woke up. He\u2019s like being sleep-rescued!\n\u201cThen Peter came to himself and said, \u2018Now I know without a doubt that the Lord sent his angel and rescued me from Herod's clutches and from everything the Jewish people were anticipating.\u2019 When this had dawned on him, he went to the house of Mary the mother of John, also called Mark, where many people had gathered and were praying. Peter knocked at the outer entrance, and a servant girl named Rhoda came to answer the door.\u201d\nI love the detail. Rhoda was her name.\n\u201cWhen she recognized Peter's voice, she was so overjoyed she ran back without opening it and exclaimed, \u2018Peter is at the door!\u2019 \u2018You're out of your mind,\u2019 they told her. When she kept insisting that it was so, they said, \u2018It must be his angel.\u2019 But Peter kept on knocking, and when they opened the door and saw him, they were astonished. Peter motioned with his hand for them to be quiet and described how the Lord had brought him out of prison. \u2018Tell James and the brothers about this,\u2019 he said, and then he left for another place.\u201d\nTo an undisclosed location.\nHere\u2019s the question for application:\n#5. ARE WE WILLING TO EXPECT GOD TO ANSWER OUR PRAYERS?\nI think that Luke includes this story at least in part to humorously poke fun at how we often act.\nWhat are the doing at Mary\u2019s house?\nThey are praying for Peter\u2019s release.\nWhat do they do when they hear that he\u2019s at the door? V.15\n\u201cWell, it must be his [guardian] angel.\u201d\nBecause we all know that guardian angels look and sound just like the people they guard? What?\nThey prayed earnestly and God answered their prayers.\nBut they didn\u2019t expect it. At least, they didn\u2019t expect how great the release was.\nBut we serve a God \u201cwho is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us...\u201d\n\u201cPeter is at the door.\u201d\nNow, that doesn\u2019t mean that God will always do what we ask.\nI\u2019m SURE that they prayed for James\u2019 release, too.\nBut we cannot be fatalistic thinking that prayer does no good.\nAnd we should eagerly expect good answers. Amen?\nDoes that encourage you to pray again today?\nOne more question and we\u2019re done. It comes out of this last story about Herod. V.18\n\u201cIn the morning [back at the ranch], there was no small commotion among the soldiers as to what had become of Peter. [Ya think?] After Herod had a thorough search made for him and did not find him, he cross-examined the guards and ordered that they be executed. [You lose a prisoner, you get what they had coming.]Then Herod went from Judea to Caesarea and stayed there a while. He had been quarreling with the people of Tyre and Sidon; they now joined together and sought an audience with him. Having secured the support of Blastus, a trusted personal servant of the king, they asked for peace, because they depended on the king's country for their food supply.\u201d\nWe won\u2019t get into the politics here, but you can get a sense of what was going on.\nHerod was full of himself. And it showed. V.21\n\u201cOn the appointed day Herod, wearing his royal robes, sat on his throne and delivered a public address to the people. They shouted, \u2018This is the voice of a god, not of a man.\u2019 Immediately, because Herod did not give praise to God, an angel of the Lord struck him down, and he was eaten by worms and died.\u201d\nThe historian Josephus tells us that on this day, Herod grabbed his stomach and fell down dead.\nApparently, it was deadly intestinal worms that did him in.\nBut we know that it was God.\nHerod was full of himself and was eager to think of himself as a god.\nWhen the crowd of that great television show, Caeserean Idol, started chanting, \u201cHerod! Herod! Herod! This is the voice of a god, not a man.\u201d\nHerod just smiled and took it in. And God took him out.\nHere\u2019s the question.\n#6. ARE WE WILLING TO PASS THE PRAISE TO GOD?\nIt\u2019s easy to get full of yourself.\nWe are spring loaded to be loaded up with pride.\nBut God opposes the proud and gives grace to the humble. V.24\n\u201cBut the word of God continued to increase and spread. When Barnabas and Saul had finished their mission, they returned from Jerusalem, taking with them John, also called Mark.\u201d\nAnd that sets us up for the first missionary journey of this amazing team.\n12/02/2011 01:59:00 PM CCEF, Gossip, Resisting Gossip, Writing, WTS 2 comments\nI killed a tree or two today.\nI printed out the four copies of my project and put them in the mail (and kept one for myself).

        "raw_content": "The demand for House & Land packages is growing, and it\u2019s not hard to see why.\nConstruction companies or developers are offering to take all of the hard work out of building a brand new home, and plenty of people are jumping at the opportunity.\nHow does a House & Land Package work?\nHouse & Land Packages really do take a lot of the hard work out of building a new home, whether it be to occupy for yourself, or use as an investment.\nThe process starts by choosing a block of land from the selection the developer has on offer. You need to keep in mind whether the block is suitable for what you require, do your own research on the land, and enquire about any extra costs that may be associated with site works etc.\nIn most cases, the developer has a particular house (or multiple) that they have priced to put on this block. It\u2019s important to ensure that this house meets your requirements also, and if the developer will allow you to make any adjustments to the plan.\nHouse & Land packages can also be a pre-built home, that a developer is marketing as a package.\nBenefits of House & Land Packages\nThere are numerous advantages to House & Land packages. The main one being that it takes a lot of stress off you in the early stages of building a new home. These packages can be extremely beneficial for first home owners, who aren\u2019t experienced in the process of building a new home. Packages are eligible for the Queensland First Home Owner Grant, which until 30th June 2017, is a $20,000 incentive to build a new home, encouraging first home owners to build new and support the construction industry, keeping thousands of people employed.\nWhen deciding on a package, be aware of any hidden costs, related to the land or the home build itself. Be sure to do all of your homework and research the area you plan to purchase your package in, and most importantly, the legitimacy and quality of the builder who will construct your new home- working with a reputable builder is of utmost importance.\nBefore signing on the dotted line, ensure you are getting everything you have agreed on and are entitled to.\nWith House & Land Packages, the price you are being given is generally with standard inclusions. Beware that if you are wanting to upgrade any inclusions, it will come at a cost. It\u2019s important to research what extras your budget may allow.",

The sexes are almost identical, the only difference being that males have an all-red cap, whereas females are red only at the back of the head. The irises of both sexes are light-grey. The straight, pointy bill is horn-coloured to light-grey, with a grey tip. Legs and feet are grey. Like all other treecreepers and related species they have long toes, of which two are pointing forward and two backward.\nSee Black Woodpecker at Wikipedia .\nThe overall distribution of this species can be assessed based on sighting reports submitted by birdwatchers to the ebird.org website. The global distribution of the Black Woodpecker is available HERE . Black Woodpeckers are sedentary throughout their range. The overall range extends from northern Iberia in the West to Japan in the East. They are found in most of central, northern, eastern and south-eastern Europe and Scandinavia, throughout much of mid- to high-latitude Asia (but not in the region from eastern Ukraine to all of Kazakhstan), up to northern Asia Minor, the Caucasus mountain range, northern Iran, southern China and Korea in the South.\nIn Europe Black Woodpeckers are found as permanent residents from northern Iberia, via all of central Europe and most of Scandinavia (except the highest mountain ranges) into eastern and most of south-eastern Euope. They are not found in most Mediterranean Europe, except a population in south-western Italy. They are also absent from the Adriatic coastline and the northern coastline of the Black Sea. Except for a few locations along the lower Danube, they are not found in the majority of the Danube River valley (e.g. in the Hungarian Puszta and parts of Romania).\nBlack Woodpeckers have a preference for mature forest.\nA Black Woodpecker was caught, ringed and photographed by S.

        "raw_content": "[ \"article:topic\", \"Glycemic Index\", \"showtoc:no\" ]\nDetermining the GI of a Food\nCriticism and Alternatives\nThe following is taken from these sources and provides a general overview. The most authoritative source of information on this topic is the following website: http://www.glycemicindex.com/.\nhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glycemic_index\nhttps://www.gisymbol.com/about-glycemic-index/\nThe glycemic index or glycaemic index (/\u0261la\u026a\u02c8si\u02d0m\u026ak/;[1] GI) is a number associated with the carbohydrates in a particular type of food that indicates the effect of these carbohydrates on a person's blood glucose (also called blood sugar) level. A value of 100 represents the standard, and is the response associated with an equivalent amount of pure glucose.[2]\nThe GI represents the rise in a person's blood sugar level two hours after consumption of the food. The glycemic effects of foods depends on a number of factors, such as the type of carbohydrate, physical entrapment of the carbohydrate molecules within the food (food matrix), fat and protein content of the food and organic acids or their salts in the meal. The GI is useful for understanding how the body breaks down carbohydrates[3] and takes into account only the available carbohydrate (total carbohydrate minus fiber) in a food. Glycemic index does not predict an individual's glycemic response to a food, but can be used as a tool to assess the insulin response burden of a food, averaged across a studied population. Individual responses vary greatly.[4]\nThe glycemic index is usually applied in the context of the quantity of the food and the amount of carbohydrate in the food that is actually consumed. A related measure, the glycemic load (GL),[5] factors this in by multiplying the glycemic index of the food in question by the carbohydrate content of the actual serving. Watermelon has a high glycemic index, but a low glycemic load for the quantity typically consumed.[6] Fructose, by contrast, has a low glycemic index, but can have a high glycemic load if a large quantity is consumed.\nGI tables are available that list many types of foods and their GIs (see http://www.glycemicindex.com/). Some tables also include the serving size and the glycemic load of the food per serving.[3]\nGraph describing blood sugar change after a meal.\nA practical limitation of the glycemic index is that it does not measure insulin production due to rises in blood sugar. As a result, two foods could have the same glycemic index, but produce different amounts of insulin. Likewise, two foods could have the same glycemic load, but cause different insulin responses. Furthermore, both the glycemic index and glycemic load measurements are defined by the carbohydrate content of food. For example, when eating steak, which has no carbohydrate content but provides a high protein intake, up to 50% of that protein can be converted to glucose when there is little to no carbohydrate consumed with it.[7] But because it contains no carbohydrate itself, steak cannot have a glycemic index. For some food comparisons, the \"insulin index\" may be more useful.\n1Accuracy\n2Determining the GI of a food\n4Weight control\n6Other factors\n7Criticism and alternatives\nGlycemic index charts often give only one value per food, but variations are possible due to\ncooking methods (the more cooked, or over cooked, a food, the more its cellular structure is broken, with a tendency for it to digest quickly and raise GI more)\nprocessing (e.g., flour has a higher GI than the whole grain from which it is ground as grinding breaks the grain's protective layers) and the length of storage. Potatoes are a notable example, ranging from moderate to very high GI even within the same variety.[8][9]\nMore importantly, the glycemic response is different from one person to another, and also in the same person from day to day, depending on blood glucose levels, insulin resistance, and other factors.[9] [4]\nThe glycemic index only indicates the impact on glucose level two hours after eating the food. People with diabetes have elevated levels for four hours or longer after eating certain foods.[9]\nFoods with carbohydrates that break down quickly during digestion and release glucose rapidly into the bloodstream tend to have a high GI; foods with carbohydrates that break down more slowly, releasing glucose more gradually into the bloodstream, tend to have a low GI. The concept was developed by Dr. David J. Jenkins and colleagues[10] in 1980\u20131981 at the University of Toronto in their research to find out which foods were best for people with diabetes. A lower glycemic index suggests slower rates of digestion and absorption of the foods' carbohydrates and can also indicate greater extraction from the liver and periphery of the products of carbohydrate digestion. A lower glycemic response usually equates to a lower insulin demand but not always, and can improve long-term blood glucose control[11] and blood lipids. The insulin index is also useful for providing a direct measure of the insulin response to a food.\nThe glycemic index of a food is defined as the incremental area under the two-hour blood glucose response curve (AUC) following a 12-hour fast and ingestion of a food with a certain quantity of available carbohydrate (usually 50 g). The AUC of the test food is divided by the AUC of the standard (either glucose or white bread, giving two different definitions) and multiplied by 100. The average GI value is calculated from data collected in 10 human subjects. Both the standard and test food must contain an equal amount of available carbohydrate. The result gives a relative ranking for each tested food.[2][12]\nThe current validated methods use glucose as the reference food, giving it a glycemic index value of 100 by definition. This has the advantages of being universal and producing maximum GI values of approximately 100. White bread can also be used as a reference food, giving a different set of GI values (if white bread = 100, then glucose \u2248 140). For people whose staple carbohydrate source is white bread, this has the advantage of conveying directly whether replacement of the dietary staple with a different food would result in faster or slower blood glucose response. A disadvantage with this system is that the reference food is not well-defined, because there is no universal standard for the carbohydrate content of white bread.\nGI values can be interpreted intuitively as percentages on an absolute scale and are commonly interpreted as follows:\nGI range[13]\nLow GI 55 or less fructose; beans (black, pinto, kidney, lentil, peanut, chickpea); small seeds (sunflower, flax, pumpkin, poppy, sesame, hemp); walnuts, cashews, most whole intact grains (durum/spelt/kamut wheat, millet, oat, rye, rice, barley); most vegetables, most sweet fruits (peaches, strawberries, mangos); tagatose; mushrooms; chilis\nMedium GI 56\u201369 white sugar or sucrose, not intact whole wheat or enriched wheat, pita bread, basmati rice, unpeeled boiled potato, grape juice, raisins, prunes, pumpernickel bread, cranberry juice,[14] regular ice cream, banana, sweet potato[15]\nHigh GI 70 and above glucose (dextrose, grape sugar), high fructose corn syrup, white bread (only wheat endosperm), most white rice (only rice endosperm), corn flakes, extruded breakfast cereals, maltose, maltodextrins, white potato (83).\nA low-GI food will cause blood glucose levels to increase more slowly and steadily, which leads to more suitable postprandial (after meal) blood glucose readings. A high-GI food causes a more rapid rise in blood glucose level and is suitable for energy recovery after exercise or for a person experiencing hypoglycemia.\nThe glycemic effect of foods depends on a number of factors, such as the type of starch (amylose versus amylopectin), physical entrapment of the starch molecules within the food, fat and protein content of the food and organic acids or their salts in the meal \u2013 adding vinegar, for example, will lower the GI.[16] The presence of fat or soluble dietary fiber can slow the gastric emptying rate, thus lowering the GI. In general, coarse, grainy breads with higher amounts of fiber have a lower GI value than white breads.[17]However, most breads made with 100% whole wheat or wholemeal flour have a GI not very different from endosperm only (white) bread.[18] Many brown breads are treated with enzymes to soften the crust, which makes the starch more accessible (high GI).\nWhile adding fat or protein will lower the glycemic response to a meal, the relative differences remain. That is, with or without additions, there is still a higher blood glucose curve after a high-GI bread than after a low-GI bread such as pumpernickel.\nFruits and vegetables tend to have a low glycemic index. The glycemic index can be applied only to foods where the test relies on subjects consuming an amount of food containing 50 g of available carbohydrate.[citation needed] But many fruits and vegetables (not potatoes, sweet potatoes, corn) contain less than 50 g of available carbohydrate per typical serving. Carrots were originally and incorrectly reported as having a high GI.[19] Alcoholic beverages have been reported to have low GI values; however, beer was initially reported to have a moderate GI due to the presence of maltose. This has been refuted by brewing industry professionals, who say that all maltose sugar is consumed in the brewing process and that packaged beer has little to no maltose present. Recent studies have shown that the consumption of an alcoholic drink prior to a meal reduces the GI of the meal by approximately 15%.[20] Moderate alcohol consumption more than 12 hours prior to a test does not affect the GI.[21]\nMany modern diets rely on the glycemic index, including the South Beach Diet, Transitions by Market America and NutriSystem Nourish Diet.[22] However, others have pointed out that foods generally considered to be unhealthy can have a low glycemic index, for instance, chocolate cake (GI 38), ice cream (37), or pure fructose (19), whereas foods like potatoes and rice have GIs around 100 but are commonly eaten in some countries with low rates of diabetes.[15]\nDietary replacement of saturated fats by carbohydrates with a low glycemic index may be beneficial for weight control, whereas substitution with refined, high glycemic index carbohydrates is not.[23] A Cochrane review found that adoption of low glycemic index (or load) diets by people who are overweight or obese leads to more weight loss (and better fat control) than use of diets involving higher glycemic index/load or other strategies.[24] Benefits were apparent even with low glycemic index/load diets that allow people to eat as much as they like.[24] The authors of the review concluded that \"Lowering the glycaemic load of the diet appears to be an effective method of promoting weight loss and improving lipid profiles and can be simply incorporated into a person's lifestyle.\"[24]\nIn clinical management of obesity, diets based on a low glycemic index/load appear to provide better glycemic and inflammatory control than ones based on a high glycemic index/load (and therefore could potentially be more effective in preventing obesity-related diseases).[25] In overweight and obese children, adoption of low glycemic index/load diets may not lead to weight loss but might potentially provide other benefits.[26]\nSeveral lines of recent [1999] scientific evidence have shown that individuals who followed a low-GI diet over many years were at a significantly lower risk for developing both type 2 diabetes, coronary heart disease, and age-related macular degeneration than others.[27] High blood glucose levels or repeated glycemic \"spikes\" following a meal can promote these diseases by increasing systemic glycative stress, other oxidative stress to the vasculature, and also by the direct increase in insulin level.[28] The glycative stress sets up a vicious cycle of systemic protein glycation, compromised protein editing capacity involving the ubiquitin proteolytic pathway and autophagic pathways, leading to enhanced accumulation of glycated and other obsolete proteins.[29]\nPostprandial hyperglycemia is a risk factor associated with diabetes. A 1998 study shows that it also presents an increased risk for atherosclerosis in the non-diabetic population[30] and that high GI diets, high blood-sugar levels more generally,[31] and diabetes[32]are related to kidney disease as well.\nConversely, there are areas such as Peru and Asia where people eat high-glycemic index foods such as potatoes and high-GI rice without a high level of obesity or diabetes.[citation needed] The high consumption of legumes in South America and fresh fruit and vegetables in Asia likely lowers the glycemic effect in these individuals.[citation needed] The mixing of high- and low-GI carbohydrates produces moderate GI values.[citation needed]\nA study from the University of Sydney in Australia suggests that having a breakfast of white bread and sugar-rich cereals, over time, can make a person susceptible to diabetes, heart disease, and even cancer.[33]\nA study published in 2007 in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition found that age-related adult macular degeneration (AMD), which leads to blindness, is 42% higher among people with a high-GI diet, and concluded that eating a lower-GI diet would eliminate 20% of AMD cases.[34]\nThe American Diabetes Association supports glycemic index but warns that the total amount of carbohydrate in the food is still the strongest and most important indicator, and that everyone should make their own custom method that works best for them.[35][36]\nThe International Life Sciences Institute concluded in 2011 that because there are many different ways of lowering glycemic response, not all of which have the same effects on health, \"It is becoming evident that modifying the glycemic response of the diet should not be seen as a stand-alone strategy but rather as an element of an overall balanced diet and lifestyle.\"[37]\nA systematic review of few human trials examined the potential of low GI diet to improve pregnancy outcomes. Potential benefits were still seen despite no ground breaking findings in maternal glycemia or pregnancy outcomes. In this regard, more women under low GI diet achieved the target treatment goal for the postprandial glycemic level and reduced their need for insulin treatment. A low GI diet can also provide greater benefits to overweight and obese women. Interestingly, intervention at an early stage of pregnancy has shown a tendency to lower birth weight and birth centile in infants born to women with GDM.[38]\nDepending on quantities, the number of grams of carbohydrate in a food can have a bigger impact on blood sugar levels than the glycemic index does. Consuming less dietary energy, losing weight, and carbohydrate counting can be better for lowering the blood sugar level.[9] Carbohydrates impact glucose levels most profoundly,[39] and two foods with the same carbohydrate content are, in general, comparable in their effects on blood sugar.[39] A food with a low glycemic index can have a high carbohydrate content or vice versa; this can be accounted for with the glycemic load (GL) where GL= GI% x grams of carbohydrate per serving (Louie JCY, et al., 2015]. Consuming carbohydrates with a low glycemic index and calculating carbohydrate intake would produce the most stable blood sugar levels.\nWhile the glycemic index of foods is used as a guide to the rise in blood glucose that should follow meals containing those foods, actual increases in blood glucose show considerable variability from person to person, even after consumption of identical meals.[4]This is in part because glycemic index does not take into account other factors besides glycemic response, such as insulin response, which is measured by the insulin index and can be more appropriate in representing the effects from some food contents other than carbohydrates.[40] In particular, since it is based on the area under the curve of the glucose response over time from ingesting a subject food, the shape of the curve has no bearing on the corresponding GI value. The glucose response can rise to a high level and fall quickly, or rise less high but remain there for a longer time, and have the same area under the curve. For subjects with type 1 diabetes who do not have an insulin response, the rate of appearance of glucose after ingestion represents the absorption of the food itself. This glycemic response has been modeled,[41] where the model parameters for the food enable prediction of the continuous effect of the food over time on glucose values, and not merely the ultimate effect that the GI represents.\nAlthough the glycemic index provides some insights into the relative diabetic risk within specific food groups, it contains many counter-intuitive ratings. These include suggestions that bread generally has a higher glycemic ranking than sugar and that some potatoes are more glycemic than glucose. More significantly, studies such as that by Bazzano et al.[42] demonstrate a significant beneficial diabetic effect for fruit compared to a substantial detrimental impact for fruit juice despite these having similar \"low GI\" ratings.\nFrom blood glucose curves presented by Brand-Miller et al.[43] the main distinguishing feature between average fruit and fruit juice blood glucose curves is the maximum slope of the leading edge of 4.38 mmol\u00b7L\u22121\u00b7h\u22121 for fruit and 6.71 mmol\u00b7L\u22121\u00b7h\u22121 for fruit juice. This raises the concept that the rate of increase in blood glucose may be a significant determinant particularly when comparing liquids to solids which release carbohydrates over time and therefore have an inherently greater area under the blood glucose curve.",

The Sovereign can be configured for up to standard max of ten passengers. However, in its typical loading it can carry six passengers with full fuel. Operators report that the Sovereign offers the best \u201chigh and hot\u201d airport performance of any aircraft in its class.\nProduction began in 2002, and continued until 2013 with a total of 350 aircraft produced. In June of last year, Winglet Technology secured an STC for an aftermarket winglet option for the Sovereign. The \u201ctransitional winglet\u201d retrofit will enable the classic Sovereign to have faster cruise speeds, increased range, and improved time to climb performance.\nThe Sovereign market has been quite active and the current inventory level is the lowest it has been in almost four years (5% of the total fleet is available for sale). There are currently two Sovereigns under contract/deal pending. Ask price variance across the diverse market currently ranges from a low of just under $5.5M up to $9M on the highest end of the market.\nThe average market time for Sovereigns that traded in the last six months is just under nine months. Twenty-Four (24) Sovereigns have transacted in the last six months, with 16 of those aircraft trading in the last ninety days. All but one of the Sovereigns sold during this period were enrolled on an engine program. Of the aircraft that sold, one featured aftermarket transitional winglets and over half had NAV upgrades at the time of sale.",

        "raw_content": "Intern Health Study - Mobile Health/Medical Education\nDeveloping a better understanding of how life stress leads to the onset of psychiatric disorders, such as major depression, has the potential to transform our ability to prevent and treat these disorders. Unfortunately, our capacity to capture the effects of stress accurately and in real-time has been limited because the assessment of psychiatric phenotypes has traditionally relied on the long-term recall and self-report of symptoms by affected individuals. Mobile electronic technology holds great promise in overcoming these limitations and providing richer and more meaningful data to follow and understand the progression from stress to disease.\nBecause it is almost impossible to prospectively predict the onset of stress and depression in a large group of subjects however, mobile electronic technology studies conducted to date have been small and largely focused on patients already experiencing psychiatric symptoms. In order to advance, there is a critical need to understand the temporal relationship between stress and depression with real-time, objective measures.\nAt the completion of this project, it is our expectation that we will have identified mobile signatures that change with stress and prospectively predict changing levels of depressive symptoms. Further, it is our expectation that we will establish a nimble platform well positioned to rapidly assess new mobile electronic assessment and intervention technologies and as they emerge. These anticipated advances would have an important positive impact in the elucidation of causal mechanisms linking stress and depression and efforts to identify those at risk for mental illness in real time.\nSrijan Sen MD, PhD, Co-Prinicipal Investigator at University of Michigan.

        "title": "Michigan Achieves: Becoming a Top Ten Education State - The Education Trust - Midwest",
        "raw_content": "Michigan is truly at a crossroads. After years of hard work to recover from the Great Recession, Michigan is beginning to rebuild its economy and many of our fellow Michiganders are getting back to work. While our recovery is fragile, there are economic signs of hope blossoming this spring.\nOur public education system, however, is not on the rebound. Michigan\u2019s student learning rank compared to the rest of the country has plummeted over the last decade. Since 2003, Michigan has fallen from 28th in the nation to 38th in fourth-grade reading. If Michigan stays on its current course, we will be ranked 44th nationwide for student learning in fourth-grade reading by 2030, according to a new analysis conducted by The Education Trust-Midwest. Within five years, if nothing changes, Michigan will be trying to catch up with what had been America\u2019s chronically low-performing education states like Arkansas and South Carolina.\nAnd for those who think that Michigan\u2019s education problem is isolated in our urban communities with large low-income, African American and Latino populations \u2013 the data prove them wrong. Since 2003, Michigan\u2019s white students have fallen from 13th to 45th in fourth-grade reading achievement, according to the national assessment. Today, if Michigan stays on its current path, the state is on track to be 49th in the country by 2030 \u2013 only ahead of West Virginia. That is a tragic and shocking decline.\nWe can continue to maintain the status quo, and become one of the nation\u2019s worst states for public education, or we can choose a new path.\nOur 2015 State of Michigan Education Report, Michigan Achieves: Becoming a Top Ten Education State, lays out a comprehensive plan to lift Michigan up from the bottom and into one of our nation\u2019s top ten education states by 2030.\nWe do this by targeting investment in key areas that research shows have the best results. Leading education states have shown that a focus on teaching quality, higher standards and school accountability can truly put us on the path to success.\nThe road is long and it will not be easy, but change is possible. The first step is putting Michigan into the top ten for student achievement. In order to get there, we need state leadership that invests in, supports, and holds the system and its actors much more accountable. It means state leadership \u2014 including the Michigan Department of Education, state legislature and Intermediate School District system \u2014 that supports local districts in meaningful and effective ways, which is practically unheard of at the local level. It means shedding ideological baggage, local control excuses and partisan rhetoric that typically reflect the interest groups that pay for many state elections on both sides of the aisle. In short, it means doing things very differently, just as leading education states have done.\nTennessee, for one, only recently was a worse performing education state than Michigan. Now it\u2019s America\u2019s top state for student improvement. Even its African American students\u2019 academic growth is soaring in key academic subjects. Tennessee\u2019s leaders have made investments in the right levers for change.\nOther states have shown how systemic change is possible and now Michigan must follow through. This report tracks how our students have performed over the last decade and projects how Michigan will compare to the rest of the country in 2030, if we do not change. It also lays out an alternate path \u2013 a better Michigan with a top education system \u2014 along with a roadmap on how to get there. Finally, we review the status of Michigan\u2019s statewide educational improvement plans and implementation \u2014 or lack thereof \u2014 and provide a roadmap for improvement over the next ten years based on research and proven practices from leading education states.\nNow more than ever, all Michigan children need a world-class education to ensure their success in life. Too often today, Michigan employers must go out of state or hire workers from other countries to get the talent that they need, while underprepared Michiganders \u2014 educated in Michigan public schools \u2014 go underemployed or struggle to move up the ladder of opportunity. That\u2019s not who we are, historically, as a state or as a people. Once Michigan was a place for families came to find new opportunities, good public schools and to live the American dream. We can be again. We must rebuild our public schools just as we have worked so hard to do with our economy.\nIt won\u2019t be easy but it\u2019s do-able. Other states have done it. Michigan can, too.\nAre you ready to make a difference for Michigan students?\nSign up for more information and weekly newsletters to learn how you can help\nShare information in your community and work with key leaders\nOur work for Michigan students depends on your generosity\nA Voice for Michigan Students\nTake part in speaking to key stakeholders or policy makers on behalf of Michigan Achieves",

        "raw_content": "\u2190 Why Informational Interviews Are Essential to Your Career Change\nHoliday Party Etiquette 101 \u2192\nWe are just around the corner from the holidays\u2026. Thanksgiving, Christmas, Hanukah, New Years \u2013 they are coming.\nMany job seekers believe that the holidays are a terrible time to job search. Why? They feel that people are too busy with the festivities or are away on vacation or maybe just checked out with the end of year near.\nI believe the holidays are a perfect time to job search. Here are three reasons why:\n1. Fantastic networking opportunities\nAt this time of year there are year-end, Christmas and other holiday events happening everywhere. If you don\u2019t belong to a networking group now is a great time to join one or attend an event. Don\u2019t know where to start? Try Googling networking events + your location + holidays and see what is available in your area.\nA quick Google search in Vancouver showed this find:\nDo you belong to an association? This time of year many associations have networking events or socials you might attend. Don\u2019t belong to an association? Short on cash? Often organizations/associations/network groups will allow you to attend as a guest before joining, sometimes for a reduced rate or even for free.\nTry volunteering. This time of year there are lots of volunteer opportunities. Give back and watch what comes to you.\nHoliday parties are another great place to network \u2013 whether they are your company parties (if you are employed) or parties you attend with friends/family.\nNo matter where you are networking keep the following in mind:\nIt\u2019s good to have a quick blurb/elevator pitch prepared. For example:\nI\u2019m a ______________ looking for opportunities in ______________. I\u2019m particularly interested in ________________ or _________________ (companies/organizations). Would you know any places I could look or people I could talk to?\nIt\u2019s not all about you. Have a few questions you can ask other people, listen and be genuinely interested and helpful. People like talking about themselves so being curious and asking them questions can lead to great connections down the road.\nBring business cards\nMake sure you have business cards on hand and don\u2019t just keep them stuffed in your pocket \u2013 hand them out. Ask for other people\u2019s cards and remember to follow up with them later.\n\u2018Tis the season to get dressed up to the nines\u2026 but, when it comes to professional holiday networking events, you want to keep it tasteful. Avoid denim and too much cologne/perfume.\nSmile and be positive\nEven if you don\u2019t feel like smiling, try it. Bring on the positive energy and watch what happens! People are attracted to positivity.\nAnd now is a great time (and excuse) to wish someone a Happy Thanksgiving, Merry Christmas or Happy Holidays, and reconnect with your past colleagues, friends and contacts.\n2. People are in the holiday spirit\nThere\u2019s something about the holidays that can bring out the best in people. Make those cold calls, be brave and connect. This time of year I\u2019ve found people are more receptive to meeting with you. Now\u2019s the time to schedule those informational interviews.\n3. Year-end often means money for hiring new people\nOften companies that are nearing year-end have money left in their budgets to spend. What does that mean to a jobseeker? You might be able to get your foot in the door on a short contract. Contracts allow you and the employer to see if you are a good fit for the company. It gives you a sense of how the company operates and provides valuable experience.\nCompanies want to spend their budgets or they may lose this money. Now may be the time they add that new position they have been longing to do.\nEmployers hire people that approach them at the right time\nLet that be you!\nDon\u2019t put you\u2019re your job search on hold just because it is the holiday season. Job search and the spirit of the season\u2026they can go together. In fact, this may be the BEST time of the year to job search. Now what strategies will you apply?\n3 Reasons Why the Holidays are a Good Time to Job Search \u2014 1 Comment\nTerry DellaVecchia on January 7, 2018 at 10:49 pm said:\nThanks for the link to my Elevator Pitch blog!",

The Fifteen are in the process of creating a cordon sanitaire around their common borders, with the aim of turning Turkey and the countries of Central and Eastern Europe into buffer states who can receive refugees and process their demands for protection. Europe already has a security-based approach to immigration. Now it is seeking to offload its responsibilities onto third-party countries - with poor track records in human rights.\nby Jelle Van Buuren\nThe sight of Kurdish asylum-seekers arriving on Europe\u2019s coastlines in their small boats last winter caused panic in high places. Germany, Holland and Austria mobilised their immigration officers and threatened to close their borders. Italy, which had only recently joined the Schengen system, came under fire for poor surveillance of its frontiers. All this was for just 2,000 people fleeing the civil war in northern Iraq and south-eastern Turkey. A series of measures was set in place (most of them just extending existing measures) to combat the middlemen who help Kurdish asylum-seekers cross the borders: closer collaboration between border authorities, national police forces, intelligence services and Europol, and improved data-gathering systems.\nThe European Union embarked on a more ambitious initiative - which aroused less media interest - by opening a dialogue with Turkey on the possibility of a \u201cregional solution\u201d to the problem. A confidential report on meetings between European and Turkish officials gave more details on what this \u201csolution\u201d might be. The EU is offering Turkey assistance on several fronts: strengthening its border controls, improving its ability to detect forged documents; facilities for the readmission of clandestine emigrants; and more effective measures against the trafficking of persons. Finally, it is proposing to offer Turkey financial and technical help to set up detention centres for illegal migrants entering the country. Significantly, Turkish officials ruled out any involvement by the United Nations High Commission for Refugees, saying that \u201cthe Turkish authorities did not see UNHCR involvement in the reception centres as appropriate, since only illegal migrants would be held there, nor did they want to see closer general cooperation on this issue with the UNHCR.\u201d\nViewed logically, there is a problem here.

        "title": "The Reference Frame: Metaphysics is needed, should face competition, too",
        "raw_content": "Metaphysics is needed, should face competition, too\nDays ago, I discussed Lawrence Krauss' tirade slinging mud at the concept of a theory of everything.\nI have also mentioned another text in the same issue of the e-magazine, Life Is a Braid In Spacetime, by Mad Max Tegmark, but I think that it's even more vacuous than his well-known texts about the Mathematical Universe. His text is equivalent to: There is a spacetime. Something is mathematical about it. Sometimes it's the future, sometimes it's the past. If one is a bird, he can look from a bird's perspective. If he is a frog, he may have a frog's perspective.\nIf it won't be raining, we won't get soaked. (The previous sentence is from a popular Czech children's song that was the template for Smetana's The Moldau ;-) and that I began to use as a symbol of tautologies and \"easy prophesies\".)\nLife is complicated. World lines of living things are complex, too. Yup but where's the beef, Max? Thed text is like Gigi's Puzzle in the Fio Bank's TV commercial: Which of us is me: he... or me...? \u2013 He [while each solver points at a different man]. \u2013 The solver #1 is a moron moron, the solver #2 is an imbecile moron.\nInstead, let us look at\nWhy Science Needs Metaphysics\nby Roger Trigg, a retired English philosophy professor. One must be careful about propositions of this sort but the title is mostly correct.\nTrigg argues that we can't live without metaphysics because certain questions, such as the mystery that Einstein described by his quote \"the most incomprehensible thing about the world is that it is comprehensible\", can't be addressed by physics itself. They seem to go \"beyond\" physics. The very applicability of reason as a tool to study Nature is a mysterious and potentially controversial issue.\nEven more importantly, the philosopher correctly points out that most of the people who angrily insist on the elimination of metaphysics are usually using metaphysics as well, just a different one. I totally agree with that. This issue has an analogy in politics. Some people say that they prefer \"apolitical\" or \"non-ideological\" politics but if you look what they actually promote, you see that \u2013 as Czech ex-president Klaus loved to emphasize \u2013 they are tightly connected (perhaps more tightly than others) with another ideology, mostly a left-wing one.\nThere are some commenters beneath Trigg's essay who completely disagree with the philosopher's ideas. An Ape American named Hominid (his avatar seems to confirm his proclaimed race or species) says that all of metaphysics is a superstition just like gods, goblins, and Godzillas. It's nonsense, there is no evidence for anything metaphysical, and we should and must live without that.\nThis attitude is clearly a manifestation of something we may call naive realism. People like that believe that there exists some objective world (as envisioned in classical physics) and we may directly observe it and deduce all important truths about it.\nBut this view is obviously metaphysics as well and a very stupid one. The world seems to work in some way, have patterns and laws, and there is no direct way to deduce them. The search for the laws of physics is a very difficult inverse problem that requires creativity, intuition, and experience needed to make viable guesses about the possible form of the laws of physics. (And even the understanding of the laws found by others requires the understanding of increasingly abstract and deep mathematics.) These guesses are then competing with each other. The agreement with the observations and the explanatory power is what matters in this competitive struggle.\nBut the very character of the laws of physics may undergo profound, qualitative, conceptual revolutions. The transition from classical physics to quantum mechanics was arguably the most groundbreaking paradigm shift of all. But there have been many other paradigm shifts when it comes to the \"general architecture or philosophy of the theories describing Nature\", like the transition from mechanics to field theory, from the Galileo-Newtonian spacetime to the Einstein-Lorentzian relativistic one, or the curved one.\nAnd there have been many conceptual steps totally revising the strategy or primary concepts we use to understand phenomena. Statistical physics works with constructive microscopic theories of matter; but thermodynamics works with general principles constraining the macroscopic evolution of systems. Like thermodynamics, relativity may be said to be a principle-based theory, Einstein liked to say. One starts with the axioms \u2013 postulates \u2013 that seem viable and tries to deduce as many general consequences as he can. In thermodynamics, the non-existence of the perpetual motion machines were these postulates. The constancy of the speed of light and the principle of relativity play the same role in relativity.\nA nearly equivalent way to describe the paradigm shift in the case of relativity is that people learned how to place symmetry at the root of their reasoning. Some general patterns that we could have thought to be coincidental \u2013 and only work accidentally \u2013 are actually identified as principles that work exactly and universally and they allow us to deduce lots of things rather easily. And one may collect arbitrarily extensive and accurate evidence to back these principles and symmetries.\nWhen the quantum mechanical postulates are applied to fields, one encounters divergences and faces lots of seemingly technical questions \u2013 that may be, due to the people's emotional reactions, said to be psychological or metaphysical \u2013 about the acceptability of the infinities, their meaning, legality of their subtractions, and so on. These methods used to be considered illegitimate \u2013 even by giants such as Dirac \u2013 but the continuing progress made it clear that the opposition was really irrational. This was a change of the metaphysics, too. The explanation of the legality of the renormalization procedure by the concept of the effective field theory \u2013 and the methods of the renormalization group \u2013 was yet another \"metaphysical\" advance.\nThe naive realists who say things like \"metaphysics shouldn't exist at all\" are clearly unfamiliar with all these things that actually form the skeleton of the history of physics and its contemporary portrait of the Universe. These advances \u2013 which changed the very basic opinions of physicists about the \"reality\" \u2013 have occurred and they have been important. They have arguably been the most important findings in physics. I would even say that by definition, the deepest breakthroughs in physics are those that affect the basic metaphysical aspects of thinking.\nIf some of you prefer as ambitious advances in physics as your humble correspondent, you are surely focusing on ideas that have the potential to revolutionize metaphysics. In some sense, everything else are just technical details.\nThe Homonid and his fellow naive realists are imagining that \"metaphysics\" is unavoidably something like a \"bearded god on the cloud\". Sometimes they even explicitly write silly things like that. It's easier to fight a straw man than to fight against the essential theories of science (and in fact, also than to fight against an actual bearded god on the cloud). But \"metaphysics\" that is so vital for the modern physics is nothing of the sort. Metaphysics is the set of ideas and assumptions that are linking and mapping the logical thinking with the (hypothetical or real) world around us.\nYou may say that there is a world around us but it's not available to our senses and thoughts \"directly\". Our eyes only see a tiny interval of the electromagnetic spectrum; only distinguish the colors by three (instead of infinitely many) parameters, the red, green, and blue intensities; they have a lousy resolution; they can't see things that are too tiny or too far or too dim or behind other objects, and so on. ;-) Even when we see them, we see 2D projections of a sort and they may be distorted by lots of optical effects, illusions, or diffraction (wave phenomena of light). We may improve our eyes by telescopes and microscopes and radio telescopes and millions of other things. It helps but opens a whole new can of worms when it comes to basic questions that at least initially look metaphysical, what is real, what is not real, what you can trust, what is objective, and so on. Only when people understand the new theory and tools well, they may confidently reclassify the \"metaphysical\" questions as \"physical\" ones.\nQuantum mechanics insists that you must be maximally careful about all these things. When you observe something, it doesn't mean that it was objectively there and every other honest person must have agreed with that. Instead, when you reliably observe something, it just becomes a reliable truth from your point of view. But the truth wasn't a truth before you observed it \u2013 the observation unavoidably affected the state of the observed system \u2013 and the observation is inevitably subjective in character, too. If you observe something, it's your internal feeling that you know the particular result. But others may only agree that you have a \"sharp knowledge\" if they make their own observation of you, or something like that.\nAll these initially counterintuitive properties of quantum mechanics may be said to be parts of metaphysics. It's metaphysics in the sense that the correct way of thinking inevitably goes beyond the very straitjacket that you could have previously demanded to define \"all legitimate science\". In classical physics, you were allowed to add fields, the metric tensor, curved spacetime, relativity of simultaneity, very complicated nonlinear and nonpolynomial interactions, tons of other degrees of freedom, and so on. Someone could have said that \"this freedom, just like 640 kB, should be enough for everyone\". But it's just not enough for Nature \u2013 and those who want to understand Her at the 20th or 21st century level. The results that led to quantum mechanics showed that despite all the apparent freedom, this straitjacket was far too constraining and the correct theory of the microscopic world simply cannot belong to this set of (classical) theories.\nThe quantum revolution \u2013 and other revolutions \u2013 forced us to change what was considered to be the defining limits of \"physics\" or \"science\", and that's why these revolutions required a breakthrough in metaphysics. You may describe the same idea in many ways but the content is true and important, anyway. The key lesson undoubtedly is that naive realism is absolutely inadequate for modern science. The people who believe naive realism often think that they're very scientific but for more than 100 years, this self-confidence of theirs has contradicted the new results in physics.\nAs Bohr once said, quantum mechanics \u2013 but even already classical statistical physics \u2013 doesn't want to address what the world \"is\" like, but what correct propositions about the world we can \"say\". So the focus is on propositions \u2013 in the sense of logic (or the probability calculus \u2013 because the ultimate verifiable answers we are calculating are not binary but real probabilities). This is a general principle that the naive realists and hardcore materialists typically entirely misunderstand. But modern physics just can't work without this realization.\nOne may also talk about controversial metaphysical concepts such as the multiverse \u2013 whose majority will be forever unobservable for us \u2013 or even the anthropic principle. Naive realists love to reject all these ideas immediately. They're metaphysics for them, not science. However, they commit one absolutely obvious logical fallacy at the beginning. In physics, it is the different \"propositions\" and \"ideas\" that are competing with each other, not the \"objects\" themselves.\nSo e.g. \"the multiverse\" isn't a competitor in physics. Instead, it is the statement \"There exists the multiverse.\" As a naive realist, you may reject this statement. But when you reject the proposition \"There exists the [at least one] multiverse\", you are equivalently saying the negation of this statement, \"The number of multiverses is zero.\" You know, the problem for the naive realist is that this (negated) proposition depends on the \"multiverse\" as well, so if talking about the multiverse were \"unscientific\", so would be all the things that the opponent of the multiverse says about the problem!\nAt the end, whether you like it or not, theories envisioning the multiverse are conceptually or metaphysically new but they are possible competitors among hypotheses trying to describe the observations. So we have to treat this hypothesis as impartially as other hypotheses that are building on different, perhaps \"more traditional\" kinds of metaphysics. We must impartially look for evidence supporting or disfavoring the metaphysically new hypotheses as well as the metaphysically old-fashioned ones! If I oversimplify just a little bit, if you want to defeat the multiverse, you have to falsify it or find a more predictive or accurate theory that is also resisting falsification. In science, there's just no other way to kill a correctly constructed sentence linked to the observable phenomena.\nYou know, certain things may refuse to have a sharp scientific derivation. The particular outcomes in experiments explained by quantum mechanics almost certainly don't have a scientific explanation. Shapes of the continents are also mostly \"random\" (even the quantum randomness has surely affected them!) and some or all properties of the right compactification of string theory may be \"random\", too. You can't disprove these possibilities just by screaming \"metaphysics\". There's nothing wrong about \"metaphysics\". These questions are indeed deep enough to be called \"metaphysical\" but we still need to know the answers and screaming expletives or being an apologist for a Leeter Shmoit isn't a valid way to single out the right answer to anything.\nWhatever seems viable and may lead to a theory or a framework that is capable of explaining a greater number of facts or patterns has to be considered as a valid competitor. It is the people who reject some competing hypotheses as \"metaphysics\" who are metaphysically prejudiced and who are doing science incorrectly \u2013 they are not doing science at all.\nI should perhaps emphasize that the metaphysical prejudices and dogmas are one of the greatest enemies of the scientific method. You simply can't reject a possible hypothesis without a careful comparison of this hypothesis with the known facts \u2013 and with the competing hypotheses. This a priori rejection is what the Catholic Church was doing 500+ years ago. It doesn't matter whether you call the a priori rejected theories \"heretical\", \"blasphemous\", \"politically incorrect\", or \"metaphysical\". The root of the problem is always the same: you are trying to intimidate scientists and dishonestly suppress the evidence pointing to a certain direction that is inconvenient to you!\nThe metaphysically prejudiced people are the naive realists. But most of the professional philosophers or theologians or champions of churches and sects are metaphysically prejudiced as well, of course. So at the end, I must emphasize one thing. When I say that \"metaphysics is ultimately needed in the physics research and the evolution of physics\", it doesn't mean that \"philosophers are those who should be the ultimate bosses and supervisors of physicists and scientists\". I am not saying the latter thing at all. On the contrary!\nThe right metaphysics has to be found by the careful derivation of consequences and comparisons with the known facts about Nature \u2013 the usual job that is done by physicists or other scientists! Someone's being employed as a philosopher probably doesn't help him at all to find the right metaphysics for modern physics (maybe it hurts in average). But the fact that pure philosophers don't seem to be useful can't change anything about our observations that metaphysics \u2013 selected by physicists via physical arguments \u2013 is not only needed in physics but it sits at the heart of physics and at the core of all the big revolutions in physics.",

He earned himself the title of Spiderman, and was granted French citizenship by President Emmanuel Macron.\nIf the Parisian Spiderman temporarily forced the French to look at migrants in a different light, President Macron himself was forced to listen to an eight-minute exposition on how Africa does not want the generosity of the world by the Ghanaian President Nana Akufo-Addo when he visited the West African state. That video went viral and many Africans cheered that a leader had articulated their feelings.\nBut other things went viral which did not make too many people proud. Bobi Wine, the Ugandan pop star-turned-MP, shook Uganda for a few weeks in August and attracted the attention of the world when he was arrested by the police and charged with treason.

        "raw_content": "Analysis: Trump's 'America First' morphs into 'Me First'\nU.S. President Donald Trump speaks during a press conference after the meeting of U.S. President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin at the Presidential Palace in Helsinki, Finland, Monday, July 16, 2018.Markus Schreiber / AP\nMatthew Lee And Zeke Miller\nWASHINGTON \u2014 Donald Trump\u2019s \u201cAmerica First\u201d slogan morphed into \u201cMe First\u201d as the president unloaded on the U.S. intelligence community and Justice Department to portray himself as the victim of a conspiracy to deny him legitimacy. Trump also blamed American \u201cfoolishness and stupidity\u201d for the poor state of U.S.-Russia relations, returning to themes he has repeated at political rallies around the United States.\nThis time, though, he was on foreign soil, standing next to Vladimir Putin, the very man whose government is accused of interfering in the 2016 election to favour Trump. As such, his extraordinary performance on Monday fueled criticism of his presidency from both the right and left. And it will likely embolden Putin, who faced no pushback from Trump over the election allegations or a long list of other Kremlin actions, ranging from Syria to Ukraine.\nSure enough, critics and even some usually reliable defenders were quick to pounce.\nHouse Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wis., a cautious Trump supporter, said, \u201cThe president must appreciate that Russia is not our ally.\u201d And Rep. Trey Gowdy, R-S.C., who has been critical of the Russia probe, said that \u201cRussia is not our friend\u201d and expressed hope that Trump\u2019s national security aides could convince him that \u201cit is possible to conclude Russia interfered with our election in 2016 without delegitimizing his electoral success.\u201d\nBut after his two-hour, one-on-one meeting with Putin in Helsinki, Trump cast doubt on U.S. intelligence findings that Russia interfered in the election, and he dismissed special counsel Robert Mueller\u2019s probe into the meddling, suggesting there is no reason to doubt Putin\u2019s denials of malfeasance.\n\u201cI have great confidence in my intelligence people, but I will tell you that President Putin was extremely strong and powerful in his denial today,\u201d he said.\nCurrent and former Trump White House and campaign officials describe the president as obsessed by any suggestion that his elevation to the White House came as anything other than the product of his own hard work. They say the former reality star and relentless tabloid self-promoter believes that any suggestion of Russian interference undermines his victory \u2014 and his brand.\nIt\u2019s for that reason that since the 2016 campaign Trump has forcefully rejected any suggestion of Russian support for his candidacy. After his electoral victory, which caught even Trump by surprise, the president reluctantly acknowledged Russian meddling in the election \u2014 the unanimous consensus of the intelligence community \u2014 while in the same breath suggesting other countries could be responsible.\nMonths later, Trump said he fired FBI Director James Comey because of the lingering investigation into Russian meddling and possible collusion with elements of Trump\u2019s campaign. And Trump continues to reject Mueller\u2019s probe as a \u201cwitch hunt,\u201d despite the indictments of Russian hackers and intelligence officials.\nOn Monday, Trump also resurrected several debunked conspiracy theories about his opponent Hillary Clinton and the Democratic Party, called out an FBI agent involved in the meddling probe by name and complained about media coverage.\nAll the while, Trump praised his electoral success and again denied any collusion with Russia, something Putin was happy to agree with, though the Russian leader did admit to a preference for Trump, who campaigned for better ties with Moscow.\n\u201cWe ran a brilliant campaign, and that\u2019s why I\u2019m president,\u201d Trump said at one point.\n\u201cThat was a clean campaign, I beat Hillary Clinton easily,\u201d he said at another. \u201cIt\u2019s a shame that there could even be a little bit of a cloud over it.\u201d\nTrump couched the summit as a triumph of diplomacy, saying he was demonstrating statesmanship by agreeing to the meeting with Putin and savaging those who have expressed concern over its timing and what might have been on the table.\nYet, despite vague vows of better ties to come and new co-operation in Syria and on nuclear nonproliferation, neither Trump nor Putin was able to offer details of progress or specific improvements in relations as they spoke to reporters at a news conference in Helsinki after their long-awaited summit.\nThe only tangible sign of progress was Putin\u2019s gift of a World Cup soccer ball to Trump. The only points of disagreement came when Putin gently chided Trump for withdrawing from the Iran nuclear deal and when the Russian leader, not Trump himself, explained the U.S. position on Russia\u2019s annexation of Crimea.\n\u201cHe continued to maintain that it was illegal to annex it,\u201d Putin said of Trump\u2019s stance.\nPutin, for his part, played the role of statesman, serving as a kind of emcee and parrying questions from the press by professing incredulity at the allegations of meddling, before making an astonishing offer of a \u201cdeal\u201d with the president. His proposal to trade access to Russians accused of hacking in return for Russian investigators engaging in investigations of Kremlin critics was \u201can incredible offer,\u201d according to Trump.\nTrump\u2019s openness to the symbolic offer appeared to cede the high ground to Putin. To Russia hawks, even consideration of the proposal pointed to the success of Putin\u2019s efforts to shake the foundations of American democracy.\nAfter all, that was the ultimate goal of Russia\u2019s election meddling, U.S. officials have assessed.\nPutin appeared to poke at the sensitive subject when he responded to a question about meddling by asking, \u201cDo you believe United States is a democracy?\u201d\nEDITOR\u2019S NOTE \u2014 AP Diplomatic Writer Matthew Lee has been covering U.S. foreign policy and international affairs since 1999.

        "raw_content": "Why Sellers Should Stage Their Homes January 16, 2019\nWakefield, Bronx\nOnce you\u2019ve decided to sell your home, you\u2019ll have to determine whether you want to stage it as well. Many sellers avoid it since it requires an upfront investment. However, the time you put into it is worthwhile. Professional staging before selling property has been proven to help you sell more quickly and for more money.\nA Quick Guide to Staging\nWhen selling property and staging your home, you\u2019ll need to declutter and clean it. After removing all non-essential personal items, you\u2019ll add some d\u00e9cor and attractive furniture. When done properly, staging will highlight the best features of the home while minimizing the less desirable ones.\nDecluttering will make the home look larger; too many items in the closets or on the shelves will give the impression that the property doesn\u2019t have enough storage space. Cleaning the house will also improve its look and attract buyers. Depersonalizing the home makes it easy for the buyer to picture themselves living there, creating an emotional connection with the property.\nBy making a home more desirable and helping to establish an emotional connection for buyers, staging can help sell properties more quickly and for more money. For example, The National Association of Realtors\u00ae found that most agents agree that staging increases the sale value by up to 10% of the sales price. 77% of agents said that staging a home made it easier for their buyers to visualize the property as a future home. They also reported that staging decreased the time properties were on the market, with 39% of them stating that it decreased it significantly.\nWhen you need help selling property\u2014including with the staging process\u2014contact the team at Extreme Realty. They are the team you can trust to sell your home in the Bronx, Manhattan, or Westchester County, NY. Their real estate agents have more than 20 years of experience in the industry and know how to position your home to maximize your sale.

We recently got in touch with some of our past participants to hear first hand how TESA has impacted their lives.\nRavel Bowman\nYears participated in TESA: 2015 and 2016\nNeu: How did you find out about TESA?\nRavel: How I found out about it is pretty funny. I saw a girl who had a flyer for this thing, and I was like, \u201cOh, what\u2019s this?\u201d And she said, \u201cDo you want one?\u201d And I said \u201cYeah.\u201d I took a look at it and said, \u201coh, TESA, this is interesting.\u201d Freshmen year I was bouncing back and forth, wondering what I wanted to do as a career, and I knew that marketing, entrepreneurship and business was a big part of what I wanted to do. So when I saw the TESA flyer, I was like, \u201cMom, I\u2019ve got to do this program!\u201d So she signed me up. I have always been interested in marketing and entrepreneurship, so I did the program and it was fantastic.\nRead More \u201cTESA impact\u201d\n0 comments on \u201cLessons from a local coffee company\u201d\nLessons from a local coffee company\nPosted by neumagazine in entrepreneur, How To, In the Community\nEven those who are unfamiliar with business may know the old adage that coffee shops are \u201cdoomed to fail.\u201d\nTrevor Corlett, owner of Madcap of Coffee Company in downtown Grand Rapids, suggests that many people who open coffee shops do so under the false perception that there is nothing to it.\n\u201cThey spend a lot of time hanging out in coffee shops and it\u2019s super chill and it\u2019s fun and they drink coffee and hang out with friends, and they perceive that is what it will be like to own one,\u201d Corlett said. \u201cYou get people that have no background in managing retail, without being able to manage a staff that tends to be younger and all of the things that come with it. So that failure rate that you see from 10,000 feet up includes that.\u201d\nThe coffee industry is incredibly diverse. Forbes ranks Starbucks among the world\u2019s 50 most valuable brands. Biggby, an East Lansing born coffee chain, has 182 locations across Michigan, making up 48% of coffee shops across the state. For those who like to keep their spending local, Grand Rapids alone has more than a dozen independently owned coffee shops.\nGrand Valley State University professor Dr. Timothy Syfert teaches entrepreneurship at the Seidman College of Business, and explains how these different types of coffee entities serve different functions.\n\u201cPeople go to Starbucks or Biggby for the coffee,\u201d Syfert said. \u201cPeople go to coffee shops to meet other people\u2013for the community,\u201d\nWhat can entrepreneurs approaching different product markets learn from this? Well, coffee shops are a great example of what every entrepreneur should bear in mind.\n\u201cThat it is not always about the product or service\u2013 it\u2019s about what is around it,\u201d Syfert said. \u201cIt\u2019s the thing beyond the product or service that keeps people coming back.\u201d\nRead More \u201cLessons from a local coffee company\u201d",

        "raw_content": "MA in Multimedia Journalism: Innovative Education with a Vision\nNew program elevates journalism as a profession in Lebanon and the region.\nBy Hanan Nasser November 14, 2018\nWith its two-track emphasis \u2013 research or professional \u2013 the program targets both trained journalists and fresh graduates.\nThe Department of Communication Arts is launching an MA in Multimedia Journalism that focuses on digital innovation and research, and also offers an apprenticeship for journalists interested in teaching at the university level.\n\u201cOur MA in Multimedia Journalism equips students for the new world of digital media and innovation, while also building their theoretical knowledge and research skills,\u201d said Associate Professor and Communication Arts Chairperson Jad Melki.\nFurthermore, he added, \u201cbecause many journalists end up teaching at the university or pursuing their PhDs later, the program also trains students in curricular development and effective teaching, and prepares them for doctoral studies.\u201d\nThe program integrates into its teaching methods the Department of Communication Arts\u2019 four pedagogical pillars: research, theory, professional practice, and critical inquiry. Through a two-track emphasis \u2013 research or professional \u2013 it targets both trained journalists interested in advancing their careers in media teaching and research, and fresh graduates who want to break into the digital media industry.\nIn their first year, students take common courses on multimedia journalism, digital innovation, data journalism, and media research methods. Elective courses include web development for media professionals, global media literacy, and advanced digital illustration techniques, among others.\nBased on their emphasis, in their second year, students in the professional track focus on professional courses, undergo an internship and submit a senior journalism project. Those in the research track attend theoretical and research courses, and complete a research apprenticeship that culminates with a thesis.\nThe MA offers scholarships in the form of graduate assistantships, during which students not only benefit from a significant tuition reduction, but also get to work on research, teaching, and digital production tasks with faculty in the department.\nAssistant Professor of Multimedia Journalism Claudia Kozman said that while the two tracks have distinct objectives, there are commonalities. \u201cThe goal of the MA is to equip students with digital skills to create innovative journalistic stories that have a strong base in theory and research,\u201d said Dr. Kozman, who will be teaching courses on communication and media theory, as well as media pedagogy.\nWhile there are other graduate media programs in the country, Dr. Melki said they are \u201ceither overly theoretical with no practical components, or tend to be outdated and focus on obsolete media practices.\u201d This is where the department\u2019s vision to \u201creinvent communication\u201d translates in the new MA, he continued.\n\u201cWe try to bring to the classroom the latest technologies in journalistic production and media research and push students to further imagine the future of journalism.\u201d\nResearch is a distinctive component of the program, considering the rising global interest in Arab media. \u201cUnfortunately, most of that research is conducted from outside the Arab region, often by scholars who know little about our societies, histories or politics, and often with an orientalist frame,\u201d Dr. Melki said. In that sense, international students interested in media in the Arab world will find their niche in the program and can build a network of media professionals and scholars from the region.\nWith the idea of boosting local media research capacity, students, Dr. Kozman said, will develop skills in scientific research to generate rigorous studies, in addition to producing capable instructors invested in student learning. \u201cThis track is the ultimate preparation for academia, whether students only want to teach or continue their studies in a doctoral program.\u201d\nIn addition to research and professional journalism, the department decided to go a step further and cater to the needs of journalists aspiring to teach media.\nAccording to Dr. Melki, many full-time journalists teach part-time at universities and schools without having prior pedagogical training. The idea of a teaching apprenticeship brought forth a collaboration with the Department of Education for a co-taught course in media pedagogy that students in both tracks are required to take.\nThe ultimate aim of the program, Dr. Melki added, is not only to hone students\u2019 teaching skills, but also to move toward the \u201celevation of the level of journalism education and teaching in the region.\u201d\nApplications for fall 2019 are now open with an early deadline of January 28 and a regular deadline of March 30.",

        "raw_content": "Security Council debates situation in Syria\nAmb. Bashar Ja\u2019afari of Syria addresses Security Council meeting.\nThe Security Council this afternoon began debate on the situation in Syria, where thousands of people have been killed over the past 10 months in a Government crackdown against a popular uprising.\nNabil El Araby, the Secretary-General of the League of Arab States (LAS), briefed the Council on the work of the League\u2019s human rights monitors inside Syria, after which senior representatives of Member States began addressing the 15-member body on the situation in the Middle East country.\nMr. El Araby urged members of the Council to back a draft resolution prepared by Morocco and based the LAS plan of action on Syria, which calls for an immediate cessation of violence by all parties, and progress towards national dialogue that leads to a peaceful political resolution of the crisis.\n\u201cWe are attempting to avoid any foreign intervention, especially military intervention,\u201d said Mr. El Araby, adding that the draft resolution also calls for the full respect of Syria\u2019s territorial integrity and unity of the country\u2019s people.\nThe Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs of Qatar, Hamad bin Jassim bin Jabr Al-Thani, told the Council that LAS initiatives to end the violence in Syria \u201chave been in vain\u201d because the Government had failed to make any sincere effort to cooperate.\n\u201cThe reality on the ground bears witness that bloodshed has not stopped, that the killing machine is still at work, and that the violence is spreading,\u201d said Mr. Al-Thani, speaking in his capacity as chair of the Arab ministerial committee on Syria.\n\u201cToday we come to the Council asking that you assume your responsibilities under the Charter of the United Nations to address the humanitarian tragedy taking place in Syria, by adopting a clear resolution that supports the latest Arab initiative that was adopted in the resolution of LAS Ministerial Council in Cairo on 22 January,\u201d he added.\n\u201cWe also call on the Security Council to take all measures based on the resolutions adopted by LAS and notably the economic resolutions and travel ban on Syria. We are not calling for a military intervention. We are advocating the exertion of a concrete economic pressure so that the Syrian regime might realize that it is imperative to meet the demands of its people. We are not after regime change neither, for this is a matter that is up to the Syrian people to decide,\u201d he added.\nThe United States Secretary of State Hillary Clinton urged the international community to put aside differences and send a clear message of support to the people of Syria.\n\u201cSyria is a unique situation that requires its own approach, tailored to the specific circumstances occurring there. And that is exactly what the Arab League has proposed \u2013 a path for a political transition that would preserve Syria\u2019s unity and institutions,\u201d she said.\nUnited Kingdom\u2019s Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, William Hague, urged the council to unite behind the LAS plan to facilitate a peaceful resolution of the conflict.\n\u201cTo fail to do so would be to undermine the credibility of this institution, betray the Syrian people, snub the Arab League and fail in this Council\u2019s responsibilities,\u201d said Mr. Hague.\nSyria\u2019s Ambassador to the UN Bashar Ja\u2019afari said his country rejected \u201cinternational intervention,\u201d adding that \u201chomelands are built by their own citizens.\u201d His country, he said, would continue to protect its own people against armed elements. He denounced what he termed \u201cfeverish attempts\u201d to interfere in Syria\u2019s internal affairs by misleading world public opinion.\nRussia\u2019s Ambassador to the UN, Vitaly Churkin, urged both the Syrian Government and all opposition groups to send their representatives to Moscow on an agreed upon timeline to conduct informal contacts without preconditions.\n\u201cThis would allow for the Syrian parties to discuss many issues on the national agenda without any limitation, in particular the task of preparing inter-Syrian dialogue. Today it is more important than ever to engage in dialogue which would lead to the realization of the necessary agreements on the political future of the country.\u201d He urged the Council to play \u201ca constructive role\u201d in the process.\nThe UN has repeatedly urged the Syrian leadership to end the violence, with Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon urging President Bashar al-Assad \u201cstop killing his own people\u201d and embark on a path to greater democracy and heed the people\u2019s call for representation and respect of human rights.\nDuring his visit to Jordan today, Mr. Ban stated that \u201cit is more urgent than ever to put an end to this bloodshed and violence, to start a credible political solution that addresses the legitimate aspiration of the Syrian people and to protect their fundamental freedoms.\u201d\nUN chief urges Syrian President to stop killing his own people\nSecretary-General Ban Ki-moon today renewed his call on the Syrian leadership to end the ongoing bloodshed in the country, stating that the era of one-man rule and the perpetuation of family dynasties are crumbling.",

        "raw_content": "Stealing (Theft)\nStealing (Theft) Overview\nStealing basically involves taking a persons property, without consent, without a claim of right over the property, and with the intention of permanently depriving the person of the use of their property.\nIt can occur in so many different ways that it is hard to list. It includes shoplifting and it can include finding property (such as money or a watch or wallet) in the street and deciding to keep it \u2013 referred to as stealing by finding \u2013 whereby the acquisition of the property might not have been unlawful at the time.\nStealing potentially carries a sentence of imprisonment and is treated seriously by the courts. The value of the property may have some part to play in the sentencing process, as will the circumstances in which the offence is alleged to have occurred \u2013 such as the degree of planning used in committing the offence or whether there was a relationship of trust between the owner and the person who took the property.\nSometimes however a person has a claim of right of the property that they took. They might honestly hold a belief that they were entitled to take possession of the property \u2013 and therefore might not be guilty of any offence.\nIt is possible to steal your own property! For example, if you took your car for repairs but failed to pay the account and the mechanic refused to hand over your car until payment was made, you could be charged with stealing if you used a spare key to take your car because the mechanic had special ownership over your property.\nStealing is an offence of dishonesty and this is reflected in the punishments imposed by Courts.\nLarceny charges\nStealing is the taking and carrying away (asportation) of property, belonging to another, without consent or claim of right, with an intention to permanently deprive the true owner of the goods.\nWhat is a Claim of Right?\nA claim of right is an honestly held belief that a person is legally entitled to the property and not some moral entitlement. A person with such a claim of right over property has a defence to an allegation of stealing.\nWhat is Stealing From The Person?\nThis offence is similar to robbery and found within the same section of the Crimes Act \u2013 however it is not necessary to prove the same elements. It is more serious than a mere \u2018stealing\u2019 as it involves taking property from the person or from the presence of the person, but might not involve putting the person in fear. An example of this would be a bag snatch or pickpocket type offences.\nThis type of offence may be dealt with in the Local Court if no election is made for the matter to be dealt with in the District Court.\nWhat is Larceny (Stealing) by Finding?\nStealing by Finding occurs when a person finds property and believes that the true owner can be located upon reasonable inquiry but decides to keep or appropriate the property for themselves. A person finding property must consider whether the owner of goods could be found. For example, finding a $10 note on the side of the road is an entirely different situation to finding a wallet with identification in it.\nWhat is Larceny As a Bailee?\nLarceny as a Bailee occurs where there is bailment of property to a person \u2013 such as a hire or lease of goods agreement, or a loan of property, and the \u2018bailee\u2019 decides to keep the goods or dispose of them \u2013 thus treating the goods as though they were or are the true owner.",

The source code for these components is not available to the system developer nor does the system developer control the specification, release schedule and evolution of the components. The Software Engineering Group of the National Research Council of Canada is undertaking a series of experiments concerning systems that use COTS software components. In order to better understand the issues facing system users and developers, (as opposed to developers of the COTS software components), we are experimenting with architectures, technologies and processes which may be applicable to such systems.<br /><br />The experiment consists of developing a prototype of a distributed database management and communications system. This system is representative in that it integrates a significant number of COTS software products under one umbrella, including data acquisition, data conversion, data manipulation, communication, database, and messaging. Many of these functions are provided by COTS software components from different vendors. The purpose of this experiment is to try to understand, as we go through the development, the effect the use of COTS software components has on the procurement process, the development process, and the architecture of the system.\n03d01b72-5240-458d-82ef-3bf913f03eb2",

        "raw_content": "On the mechanism of the nitric oxide synthase-catalyzed conversion of N(\u03c9)-hydroxy-L-arginine to citrulline and nitric oxide\nSearch for: Korth, H. G.; Search for: Sustmann, R.; Search for: Thater, C.; Search for: Butler, A. R.; Search for: Ingold, K. U.1\nThe mechanism of oxidation of N omega-hydroxyl-L-arginine (NHA) by the iron-dioxygen complex in nitric oxide synthase (NOS) is still uncertain. The uncertainty has not been helped by a lack of precision in the notation used to describe the oxidation states and electrical charges on the iron and oxygen in some of the suggested mechanisms. These problems of notation are addressed, and, in addition, a cyclic voltammetric measurement of the oxidation potential of NHA, namely +0.10 +/- 0.04 V versus normal hydrogen electrode, is used to argue that the sometimes postulated oxidation of NHA by the iron-dioxygen complex to form an intermediate radical cation, NHA.+, is very unlikely for thermodynamic reasons. Instead, it is suggested that this oxidation occurs by a thermodynamically favored abstraction of the hydrogen atom from the > C = NOH moiety of NHA to form an intermediate iminoxyl radical, > C = NO(.). A subsequent nucleophilic attack by the iron-hydroperoxide species formed by this H-atom abstraction on the carbon atom of the iminoxyl radical moiety leads to the production of nitric oxide (NO) and citrulline.\nb8e036cf-4e08-463e-8a59-0096b910af90",

        "raw_content": "Be Alert and Watching\nBible Reference: Mark 13:32\u201333; 36-37\nBible Text: 32 \u201cHowever, no one knows the day or hour when these things will happen, not even the angels in heaven or the Son himself. Only the Father knows. 33 And since you don\u2019t know when that time will come, be on guard! Stay alert! \u2026. 36 Don\u2019t let him find you sleeping when he arrives without warning. 37 I say to you what I say to everyone: Watch for him!\u201d\nOur meteorologists are fantastic, for they watch for the storms that spin off the coast of Africa, and should they pose a potential threat to us, they warn us of their predictions on the course of the storm, in lots of time for us to be prepared and protected way before the storm arrives. Similarly, many of us have good pastors and teachers who strive to do the will of God by warning us as often as possible about the coming of the Lord Jesus, to take His bride (the church) up to heaven to spend eternity with He and His Father. Isn\u2019t it interesting how we seem to take the forecasts from our meteorologists a whole lot more seriously than we do our pastors? Walk into any church over the weekend and you will immediately question why so few are concerned about such a major event. Only a fraction of our towns attend church, and for those that do attend, most fall asleep while the warning is being proclaimed. Friends, I just visited the northwest coast of Florida after Tropical Storm Hermine passed through. There are stories of some residents who were just as unconcerned, and didn\u2019t heed the warnings and/or refused to evacuate their homes when instructed. Large tax dollars are now being spent to deliver food to them or retrieve them from their flooded or wind-destroyed homes. Take a moment to compare that to the coming of our Lord. There will be no further warnings, as scriptures tell us that not even the Son (Jesus) knows when He will return, only God does. If you did not heed the warnings to ready yourself to meet Jesus, then you have decided to stick with Satan and receive the eternal damnation he will deliver to his followers. Your pastor will no longer be available to encourage you and prod you along into making a decision to accept Jesus, it will be eternally too late. In these verses today, please recognize that these are the words of Jesus, and PLEASE adhere to the warnings He is offering to you. Seek God\u2019s face, accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior and therefore be ready, should His return happen even today. Don\u2019t ignore the warning friend, today is the day of salvation, for it can also be the day of Jesus\u2019 return to get His saints! I\u2019m ready! Are you?\nLord Jesus, You\u2019ve been warning us about Your return long before meteorologists were ever trained, or before the days of computerized tools to help them predict an oncoming storm. It is so unfortunate that many of our people listen more closely to man\u2019s predictions than to Your facts as relayed to us by Your writers. Oh God, may today be the day that many will come to know You personally (ready themselves for Your impending return). If a hurricane was approaching, we would quickly run to shelter and/or save our loved ones and friends. Something a whole lot more final is pending, and could actually happen today, Lord may we have the same urgency to save those we love. I ask these things in the name of my soon coming Lord and Savior, AMEN!\nReadiness, Ready, Ready to Go, State of Readiness\nFind Out What The Lord Says\nHow to Guard Against Temptation",

        "raw_content": "South African Union Militant & \u201cRace to Bottom\u201d\nThis web site recently ran a story on longshore workers in Oakland, California, being led through a picket line by their leadership. It cited what we imagined to be a telephone conversation between the local president and the president of the International. At its root, the position was that the ILWU must keep the employers happy, or else they will lose work in one way or another. Now, we have a report on a union leader in South Africa who takes a completely different view of things. This report is directly relevant to what is happening in unions in the US and around the world. It also raises some more complicated issues.\nAn article in the Wall St. Journal of October 28 reports on the role of a more militant union leader in South Africa \u2013 Irvin Jim of the auto workers union. According to the article, Jim has fought for double-digit wage increases and has led several strikes.\nJim has also criticized the ANC government, which he accuses of following neo-liberal policies. His union will reportedly discuss leaving the alliance with the ANC and forming a new political party in December.\nIf these reports are accurate, this could be big news.\nHowever, there is also another side to this story. \u201cIf it continues the way it is going, we\u2019ve got choices,\u201d said Jeffrey Nemeth, president of Ford Motor Co.\u2019s southern African operations, referring to labor unrest. \u201cAny multinational will choose to invest where the best opportunity is for returns and predictability,\u201d the WSJ reports. They write further: \u201cBMW said the labor unrest knocked South Africa out of the running for a new production line that would have expanded the company\u2019s investment and jobs in the country. \u201cWe will not add more models or volume to this plant until we see things have changed,\u201d said BMW\u2019s managing director in South Africa, Bodo Donauer.\nJim accuses the auto makers of engaging in \u201ceconomic blackmail\u201d, which of course they are, but that is to be expected. The question is what to do about it. Jim has taken the first step by reportedly saying that they won\u2019t engage in the \u201crace to the bottom\u201d \u2013 a welcome shift from the position of most union leaders, including in the US. What is the alternative?\nA first step would be international solidarity in deeds, not just words. It would not take much for Jim\u2019s union to send teams of auto workers to meet with their counterparts in other parts of Africa and elsewhere in the world. If workers in the industry strike in one country, then the industry should be shut down everywhere. That may sound like a huge step, but without that, workers will be forced into the race to the bottom.\nThe article says that Jim says he\u2019s a Marxist. That is the natural conclusion from these pressures. After all, ultimately we cannot control what we don\u2019t own. Joint global action would be important, but ultimately workers will have to take possession of that privately owned capital and determine for themselves how it will be used.\nWe Overhear the NSA Again",

        "title": "AccessCo Position Must Have More Job Transparency \u2013 The Oberlin Review",
        "raw_content": "AccessCo Position Must Have More Job Transparency\nCarson Li|April 27, 2018\nEven an organization like the Oberlin Student Cooperative Association, where students handle most of the management and regulation, still reflects many of our social and societal problems. One of them is about challenging authority. OSCA has at least one Accessibility Coordinator per co-op. Although AccessCos are all students, they establish their authority in a way that is completely mysterious to most OSCA members. Most people have no idea what specific work they are doing, and I found it extremely complicated and burdensome to challenge their authority because of this.\nLast fall, I was one of the Keep Cottage Dining Loose End Coordinators \u2014 someone who facilitates discussions and answers questions involving elections, accessibility, and policy. At the beginning, the other DLEC and I needed to facilitate the discussion to elect two Accessibility Coordinators. There was something about this process that baffled me: The job description says we need to elect two people, but each person gets full credit. For those of you who might not be familiar with the co-op system, as long as you live in a co-op like Keep, you need to do four hours of cooking shifts and a one-hour crew shift; getting a full credit means that the people who receive full credit from their elected positions do not have to work the four-hour shift. To me, having two people working eight hours in total each week to deal with accessibility concerns is a complete overestimation of the workload.\nSo I asked the previous two AccessCos to tell us more about what they typically do each week. They claimed that AccessCo is a very important position, and they think that full-credit is legitimate. The answer was so opaque that I still had no idea what they really did besides merely speaking about accessibility. I looked at everyone else, and they all seemed OK with that ambiguous answer, except my friend, who later told me \u201cThat answer was bulls**t.\u201d Eventually, we elected two AccessCos at Keep who both received full credit.\nAt the beginning of the spring semester, Keep needed to elect AccessCos again. This time I did not say anything or raise any doubts, because just like last semester, nobody would agree with my claim. To my surprise, someone else asked the question about whether we should really give them full credit, and the previous AccessCos again stated that the position required a lot of work \u2014 still a vague answer with no detailed explanation. Now we have two AccessCos, and one of them is last semester\u2019s.\nThe day after the election, the AccessCos posted their contact information and weekly office hours schedule and sent an email reminding people to create a more accessible space. That was the only email we have received. Today, when I tried to go to the office hours that were supposed to happen at the corner of the lounge at Keep, no one was there.\nIt is true that AccessCos might do some work behind the scenes, but again, Keep has two AccessCos. This means that two people are working a total of eight hours just for accessibility issues, and nobody feels weird about it?\nA friend of mine told me that as a former Housing Loose Ends Coordinator who was trained to provide support to co-op members, including accessibility support, he held office hours every week; however, nobody ever came to talk to him. Furthermore, the HLEC is a paid position because their workload is heavier than the non-paid positions, such as the AccessCos. With this in mind, it seems even less likely that AccessCos actually work a full eight hours every week.\nI could not tolerate this anymore, so the day before I wrote this article, I sent an anonymous note to our AccessCos requesting that they write a report that is similar to OSCA\u2019s stipend report \u2014 a kind of report that is purposefully vague and only cites the amount of hours spent doing specific tasks. Hours later, I was told that they could not do this because of confidentiality concerns, and they needed to contact all-OSCA AccessCo for advice.\nWhen I again restated that I just wanted them to follow the format of the stipend report, they still refused to do it. Ironically, all-OSCA AccessCo \u2014 a paid position in OSCA \u2014 never refused to write a stipend report for confidentiality reasons, and now Keep AccessCos use the word \u201cconfidentiality\u201d as an excuse to refuse to give any more information about their job \u2014 refusing even to write an opaque report which wouldn\u2019t use any specific names.\nIt is almost impossible to raise concerns about some co-op positions, especially positions like AccessCo that hold the moral high ground of \u201caccessibility.\u201d As an individual who wants to challenge that authority, you must be prepared to spend a lot of your time, effort, and even emotional labor to voice your concerns. Challenging the legitimacy of AccessCo could be easily interpreted by other people as challenging the idea of accessibility, which makes people think that you don\u2019t care about it. Eventually, this structural repression may prevent people from further expressing opinions in the co-op.\nOSCA publicly states that it cares about accessibility, but it only applies the idea to particular aspects. It is unmistakable that OSCA provides a good place for people who have dietary restrictions, but this creates an illusion that OSCA cares about all parts of accessibility. When it comes to other more intangible accessibility concerns, OSCA has not done much work. I still could not believe how hard it is to just tell people that I think AccessCos at Keep shouldn\u2019t get full credit, and I am also very shocked to see how the AccessCos have used those vague claims about confidentiality as justification to not give me information about the number of hours they work. There is a huge power imbalance between the co-op AccessCos as an authority and me as an individual who does not hold an elected position.\nWhen I applied to serve as an HLEC for Keep several weeks ago, my former-HLEC friend told me that the secret of getting the job is to talk about accessibility all the time during the interview. I did, and I got the job. Some people have already realized how to use the discourse of accessibility to win the game in OSCA, and OSCA completely buys it.\nOSCA still understands accessibility in a very superficial way. OSCA members think that having an Accessibility Committee and AccessCos in each co-op is enough, but in fact, it only makes the space sound accessible. When I challenged the two previous AccessCos about the credit they get, there were also other people supporting the AccessCos\u2019 assertions. People thought I was giving the AccessCos a hard time. But when I asked those people if they knew what AccessCos actually did, they also had no idea, but that the position must be absolutely crucial to the co-op because they deal with issues of accessibility. It is so ridiculous to me that people blindly believe the discourse of accessibility given by the previous AccessCos. There are only a few people at Keep who have figured out what\u2019s going on and want to challenge the authorities in the co-op. We all eventually choose to be silent because we don\u2019t want to spend more time, effort, and emotional labor to ask people to open their eyes and see the truth.\nTags: accessibility, Carson Li, Keep, Oberlin Student Cooperative Association, osca\n5 Responses to \u201cAccessCo Position Must Have More Job Transparency\u201d\nHannah on April 27th, 2018 5:44 PM\nOSCA accesscos do critical work. They cannot tell you exactly what they do each day to the letter in order to protect the privacy of the people they serve. While the needs of the co-op vary week to week, it\u2019s not uncommon for a crisis to take more time than even the 4 hours they receive. They also do a crew each week in addition to this, like nearly every other OSCAn. I have benefited from accesscos in a myriad of ways in my two years in OSCA; in the absence of a nutrition coordinator (a frequent occurrence in my experience) they help people with allergies and other food access issues get their needs met and serve as a proxy to keep those with disabilities and other barriers to food access from having to make advocating for themselves a full time job . They have time consuming interactions with head cooks when their practices pose barriers to everyone being fed (the whole point of a dining co-op!) This article\u2019s claim that the position is unnecessary is like saying we don\u2019t need a fire department because your own house has never been on fire. Transparency is important but I feel you should have taken more time to allow the accesscos to respond before writing this article. I respect your view but heavily disagree!\nCarson Li on April 27th, 2018 9:23 PM\nHey! Thanks for the comment, good point but I don\u2019t think you really address my concerns about AccessCo. Let me break down your sentence and comment on it:\n1. \u201cThey cannot tell you exactly what they do each day to the letter in order to protect the privacy of the people they serve.\u201d\nYes, but why All-OSCA AccessCo has to write a stipend report? I\u2019m not asking for a specific name, I\u2019m just asking for a report such as:\n4/27 Office Hour 1h\n4/28 Work on food accessibility 1.5h\n4/29 Talk with people 2h\nWill a report like this also violate people\u2019s privacy? I just want a thing that Keep AccessCos can show me what they have done to the co-op. Like as a future HLEC, I can tell you I submitted a lot of work orders to fix Keep\u2019s facilities like we got a new shower head because I asked the facility to change it. I didn\u2019t see the two AccessCos use their full credit to make any substantial change to Keep.\n2. \u201cit\u2019s not uncommon for a crisis to take more time than even the 4 hours they receive. They also do a crew each week in addition to this\u201d\nThis is a theoretical claim: we think that AccessCo has to deal with crisis, but how many people really reach out to them when they have a crisis? If I have a huge crisis, and I did, several times, I went to see my psychiatrist and the Oberlin counseling center, I won\u2019t go to AccessCo because they are not professionally trained to deal with any huge crisis.\n3. \u201cI have benefited from accesscos in a myriad of ways in my two years in OSCA; in the absence of a nutrition coordinator (a frequent occurrence in my experience) they help people with allergies and other food access issues get their needs met and serve as a proxy to keep those with disabilities and other barriers to food access from having to make advocating for themselves a full time job.\u201d\nThat is great that you get actual help! But most people I talked to don\u2019t feel like that they get any help from AccessCos. Have you done any real interviews with people about their opinions towards AccessCos in the coop? Several minutes after I forwarded this article to my facebook, people messaged me and saying that they feel the same way as me, isn\u2019t it a big problem for OSCA to think about?\nYes technically they help people with allergies, sounds very great, but if you carefully think about it, head cooks\u2019 responsibility is to take care of those dietary restrictions, so do any AccessCo or nutrition coordinator talk to head cooks every single meal to remind them of accessiblity? No! Most AccessCos just collect people\u2019s dietary restrictions and then give it to head cooks, that\u2019s it. What about the rest of the semester? Do they also need those four hours to do anything important to help people with allergies? Please stop think that they deal with accessibilities so they need a lot of time. No! They don\u2019t! I didn\u2019t see any work they have done in the later of the semester. Also, how do you argue against the fact that Keep AccessCos didn\u2019t even show up to office hours and didn\u2019t send any further emails about accessibility?\nBy the way, I also mentioned that Accessibility doesn\u2019t just include food stuff, what about living space? As a POC, have AccessCos been trained how to deal with POC stuff? I took peer helping class before and there is a big part of dealing with POC concerns, have those AccessCos also been trained? if they are not professional enough, how can you make sure that they will provide effective support to people?\n4. \u201cThey have time consuming interactions with head cooks when their practices pose barriers to everyone being fed (the whole point of a dining co-op!)\u201d\nUh, I know it\u2019s a whole coop, but remember not all people need a lot of dietary accommodation. Many people don\u2019t have any dietary restrictions. And even though they have time consuming interactions with head cooks, think about it, how long does it even take? This is the rhetoric used by those AccessCos, sounding like a lot of work, but it\u2019s really not. Talk with one head cook might only takes 10 minutes, but again, Keep has two AccessCos getting eight hours in total! That\u2019s a lot of time!\n5. \u201cThis article\u2019s claim that the position is unnecessary is like saying we don\u2019t need a fire department because your own house has never been on fire. \u201c\nSorry nope, this article\u2019s claim is this position needs more transparency. I want to propose two AccessCos at two, or one at full.\n\u201cTransparency is important but I feel you should have taken more time to allow the accesscos to respond before writing this article.\u201d\nI have raised my concern since last semester! Notice that the main point of this article is also to use political thinking to think about how difficult to raise concerns in OSCA. It is so difficult to challenge the authority, and it seems to me that you are saying that the authority shouldn\u2019t be challenged because they deal with Accessibility.\nAlso, please distinguish between an illusion of accessibility and the real one. The police station in each city creates a sense of security, so when you are walking on the street you feel safe. But actually, is it? Are you that much sure that you are safe walking on the street at night just because we have a police station? Same here, all of those accessibility institutions in OSCA gives people a sense of nice accessible environment, but why there are still so many people like me complaining about these issues and we eventually choose to be silent?\nGrace on April 28th, 2018 5:28 PM\nHere\u2019s my time log:\n1 hr \u2013 accessibility committee meeting\n1 hr \u2013 looking through the anonymous google forms we have for proxy statements, etc\n2 hr \u2013 responding to emails or working one on one\nAlso, I was planning my P&O workshop all semester, which took up time. I also had to commit time to hosting the workshop.\nAdditionally, I would like to point out that Head Cooks get 3 hours, although they are only required to be in the kitchen for two hours for the cook shift. While this time is *supposed* to be use for prep/planning, most head cooks say that it\u2019s really just used up by the fact that head cooking is way more stressful than just showing up to be on the shift. The AccessCo is definitely a job that can infringe on your personal wellbeing, and sometimes that extra hour is used to meet your own accessibility needs.\nYou make a lot of other pretty faulty claims in your article, but I really don\u2019t feel the need to pull the move you did above and go sentence by sentence critiquing you. It\u2019s most ironic that you just said \u201cwe eventually choose to be silent\u201d when you wrote a whole article trashing the position.\nYour article would certainly be strengthened had you also presented some ideas to help fix the issues you raised. I hope you can understand why this article is incredibly offensive to those of us who take accessibility seriously and know that our work pays off. You can be salty and put your effort in churning out ineffective articles, but I\u2019m gonna keep doing the work i know is useful! (:\nOh! Oh! Also \u2013 there\u2019s two AccessCos in case someone needs to raise an issue about one of the AccessCos and therefore can only go to one of them, or someone just doesn\u2019t feel comfortable approaching one of them for whatever reason. There\u2019s two AccessCos for increased accessibility!\nHannah TB on April 29th, 2018 10:15 AM\nJust to clarify, the original Hannah commenter was not me.",

It is hard to believe that it\u2019s already a new year. Where did 2014 go? I thank the Carparco Family of the Hill Funeral Home for once again sponsoring our parish calendars. These beautiful Catholic calendars were distributed last weekend at all Masses. We are grateful for them and hope you put them to good use in your homes. On the Epiphany of our Lord, according to an ancient practice of holy Church, the movable feast days are announced. The proclamation of the date of Easter and the other moveable feasts on Epiphany dates from a time when calendars were not readily available. It was necessary to make known the date of Easter in advance, since many celebrations of the liturgical year depend on its date. The number of Sundays that follow Epiphany, the date of Ash Wednesday, and the number of Sundays that follow Pentecost are all computed in relation to Easter. Although calendars now give the date of Easter and the other feasts in the liturgical year for many years in advance, the Epiphany proclamation still has value. It is a reminder of the centrality of the resurrection of the Lord in the liturgical year and the importance of the great mysteries of faith which are celebrated each year. It can be found in this week\u2019s bulletin, so be sure to mark your calendars! The Rhode Island General Assembly begins its new legislative session on Tuesday, January 6th. Also on that day our new Governor and all the of the General Officers are to be sworn in and begin their duties. We wish them well and commend them all to Almighty God. We pray that they may truly serve our state with integrity and honesty and serve the common good of all citizens. We pray that they ensure the protection of the most vulnerable among us: the poor, the elderly, the refugee, the sick and the unborn. And may Saint Thomas More inspire them and intercede for them. As the General Assembly resumes its duties in January so also do I resume my duties as the Director of the RI Catholic Conference and chief lobbyist for the Church on Smith Hill. Once again the Church\u2019s advocacy for the unborn, the immigrant, the poor and the most vulnerable among us continues on. Without a doubt there is much work to be done by our state leaders on the economy but also ensuring the sanctity of all human life and respecting the human dignity of all. I ask for your prayers for me and for the work I do with our elected officials.\nThis is the final week of the Christmas Season as it ends next Sunday on the Feast of the Baptism of the Lord. So take a good look around the Church at the beautiful decorations, plants and the cr\u00e8che. After next Sunday they are to be put away until next Christmas! I received many positive comments about the new outdoor cr\u00e8che in Mercy Park. It certainly is beautiful and I am grateful to Paul Anderson and Doug Green who designed and constructed the barn for the figures. The design and the lighting of the cr\u00e8che invite you to stop, reflect and pray to the Holy Family. This beautiful nativity set was purchased at Tally\u2019s just before Christmas and is available to be memorialized if anyone is interested please contact me.\nWe celebrate the great feast of the Epiphany this week. What the Church celebrates today is the manifestation of our Lord to the whole world. He is revealed to the Magi who have come from the East to adore Him. The Epiphany is an affirmation of universal salvation. Pope Francis reminds us: \u201cThe destiny of every person is symbolized in this journey of the Magi of the East: our life is a journey, illuminated by the lights which brighten our way, to find the fullness of truth and love which we Christians recognize in Jesus, the Light of the World. Like the Magi, every person has two great \u2018books\u2019 which provide the signs to guide this pilgrimage: the book of creation and the book of sacred Scripture. What is important is that we be attentive, alert, and listen to God who speaks to us, who always speaks to us.\u201d Happy Epiphany! God Bless.",

It is so freeing, not to worry, just like quitting smoking\u2026 so freeing.\nJesus says, in Matthew 6:25\u2026do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear.\nWell, you\u2019re saying, that\u2019s okay for Jesus to say, but what about this wedding that\u2019s coming up? What am I going to wear? Well, you\u2019re going to do one of two things, you are either going to go out and buy a new dress/suit, or you will find something in your closet that will suffice nicely (or maybe not so nicely, but will suffice.) After all, the focus is not going to be on you, now, is it?\nI can say this with confidence, and I\u2019ll tell you why. Many years ago, I attended a highschool graduation of a young lady I knew very well. The girls were decked out to the nines in gorgeous gowns, upswept hair, and impeccable makeup. The guys looked good too. All were smiling confidently.\nBut the focus was on a young lady dressed in a nicely starched and ironed, plain white blouse, and a pair of blue jeans. Her pretty face was bare of makeup and her hair was tied back in a short ponytail. She followed in the procession, head high, shoulders back, wearing a not-so-confident smile.\nShe was aware of her poverty, and the difference it made between her and her class mates. Although she was graduating head of her class, she had told her teachers that she would not be participating in the ceremony or the gala festivities afterwards. Neither she, nor her parents, could afford the upscale restaurant meal that was part of the celebration; nor for obvious reasons, would she be attending the prom afterwards.\nOne teacher was so proud of the young lady\u2019s achievements, that she encouraged the girl to receive her diploma along with the class, even if she felt like Cinderella, and insisted on paying for her dinner. \u201cYou deserve that much\u201d, the teacher emphasized.\nAnd so, there she was, in blue jeans and ponytail, no longer worrying what she should wear, or what she would eat.\nI was not alone in feeling that that young lady was the most beautiful graduate of the evening, nor was I the only one who saw Jesus in the teacher.\nThis entry was tagged Bible, graduation, Jesus, poverty, Wealth, Worry. Bookmark the permalink.\nOne thought on \u201cDo Not Worry\u201d\nWhat beautiful story.",

[2][3] Three weeks after his father\u2019s death, Andrew was born in the Waxhaws area near the border between North and South Carolina. He was the youngest of the Jacksons\u2019 three sons. His exact birth site was the subject of conflicting lore in the area. Jackson claimed to have been born in a cabin just inside South Carolina. [4] Jackson refusing to clean a British officer\u2019s boots (1876 lithograph) Jackson refusing to clean a British officer\u2019s boots (1876 lithograph)\nHe received a sporadic education in the local \u201cold-field\u201d school. During the American Revolutionary War, Jackson, at age thirteen, joined a local regiment as a courier. [5] Andrew and his brother Robert Jackson were captured by the British and held as prisoners of war; they nearly starved to death in captivity. When Andrew refused to clean the boots of a British officer, the irate redcoat slashed at him with a sword, giving him scars on his left hand and head, as well as an intense hatred for the British. [6] While imprisoned, the brothers contracted smallpox.\nRobert died a few days after their mother secured their release. Jackson\u2019s entire immediate family died from war-related hardships which Jackson blamed on the British, and he was orphaned by age 14. Jackson was the last U. S. President to have been a veteran of the American Revolution, and the second President to have been a prisoner of war (Washington was captured by the French in the French and Indian War). In 1781, Jackson worked for a time in a saddle-maker\u2019s shop. [7] Later he taught school and studied law in Salisbury, North Carolina.\nWe will write a custom essay sample on Andrew Jackson: During the American Revolutionary War specifically for you\nIn 1787, he was admitted to the bar, and moved to Jonesboro, in what was then the Western District of North Carolina, and later became Tennessee. Though his legal education was scanty, Jackson knew enough to practice law on the frontier. Since he was not from a distinguished family, he had to make his career by his own merits; soon he began to prosper in the rough-and-tumble world of frontier law. Most of the actions grew out of disputed land-claims, or from assaults and battery. In 1788, he was appointed Solicitor of the Western District and held the same position in the territorial government of Tennessee after 1791.\nIn 1796, Jackson was a delegate to the Tennessee constitutional convention. When Tennessee achieved statehood in 1796, Jackson was elected its U. S. Representative. In 1797 he was elected U. S. Senator as a Democratic-Republican. He resigned within a year. In 1798, he was appointed a judge of the Tennessee Supreme Court, serving until 1804. [8] Besides his legal and political career, Jackson prospered as a planter and merchant. In 1803 he owned a lot, and built a home and the first general store in Gallatin, Sumner County.\nIn 1804, he acquired the \u201cHermitage\u201d, a 640-acre (2. km2) plantation in Sumner County, near Nashville. Jackson later added 360 acres (1. 5 km2) to the farm. The primary crop was cotton, grown by enslaved workers. Jackson started with nine slaves, by 1820 he held as many as 44, and later held up to 150 slaves. [9]\n# 1 Wilentz, Sean. Andrew Jackson (2005), p. 8, 35.\n# 2\u2033Andrew Jackson\u201d.

Controversies about Jackson\u2019s birthplace went far beyond the dispute between North and South Carolina. Because his origins were humble and obscure compared to those of his predecessors, wild rumors abounded about Jackson\u2019s past. Joseph Nathan Kane, in his almanac-style book Facts About the Presidents, lists no fewer than eight localities, including two foreign countries, that were mentioned in the popular press as Jackson\u2019s \u201creal\u201d birthplace \u2014 including Ireland, where both of Jackson\u2019s parents were born.\n# 5 \u201cAndrew Jackson\u201d.

In the majority of cases the maximum duty in the general Tariff is 40 per cent., as in the case of fishbolts, piping, &c. In the last Tariff this subitem was free British and 10 per cent, general.

        "raw_content": "High honor for Bhabha\nIndia recognizes professor for work in literature, education\nBy Corydon Ireland | Harvard Gazette\nEarlier this year, Harvard literary scholar Homi K. Bhabha \u2014 director of the Mahindra Humanities Center \u2014 was taking his mother for an evening drive around their native Bombay. His cellphone rang: a call from a cousin famous in the family for his pranks. \u201cHomi,\u201d he said, \u201cyou\u2019ve won a Padma Bhushan\u201d \u2014 a prestigious civilian medal awarded by the Republic of India. Bhabha replied, \u201cGo ahead. Pull the other one.\u201d\nBut it was no prank. Bhabha received the medal today during a ceremony in New Delhi. He was cited for his global work in education and literature. Another awardee has connections to the University \u2014 film director (and Dudley House alumna) Mira Nair \u201979. (Her films include \u201cMonsoon Wedding,\u201d \u201cVanity Fair,\u201d and \u201cAmelia.\u201d)\nJust over a thousand of the medals have been awarded since 1954, when the honor was instituted. \u201cIt\u2019s such a big deal that I absolutely never \u2014 in my wildest imaginings \u2014 thought that this would come my way,\u201d said Bhabha before making the trip, \u201cpartly since I have not even been an Indian citizen for 20 years.\u201d\nAwarding the medal to members of the Indian diaspora, \u201ca global Indian constellation,\u201d he said, \u201cshows the cosmopolitan mentality of the Indian state.\u201d\nIn the rank just above the Padma Bhushan in civilian medals is the Padma Vibhushan. There have been fewer than 300 recipients in the past 58 years.\nThe highest civilian award in India is the Bharat Ratna, with fewer than 50 awarded in nearly six decades. Recipients include Mother Teresa (1980), Nelson Mandela (1990), and Harvard\u2019s own Amartya Sen (1999). He is Thomas W. Lamont University Professor, professor of economics and philosophy, and winner of the 1998 Nobel Prize in economics.\nFor Bhabha \u2014 Harvard\u2019s Anne F. Rothenberg Professor of the Humanities \u2014 the Padma Bhushan was quite enough. \u201cIt was literally as if the ground had opened up,\u201d he said of the surprise honor. \u201cI didn\u2019t have any such clue, aspiration, hope \u2014 nothing. Of course, I am deeply honored and very grateful.\u201d\nThe work that earned Bhabha the medal, in part, is his passionate public defense of the humanities and liberal arts \u2014 mainstays of education that he said are increasingly under fire and underfunded all over the world. Emerging models for education relate principally to economic and technical issues, and push the humanities aside, Bhabha said. \u201cThis is very shortsighted.\u201d\nIn 2010 he addressed Germany\u2019s Federal Ministry of Education and Research on the issue. Since December, he has delivered three keynote addresses on the imperiled humanities \u2014 two in Berlin and a third in London, to the British Council, the United Kingdom\u2019s cultural arm. And last month Bhabha spoke about the same issue at a United Nations panel in New York.\nBhabha recapped his argument: Neglecting the humanities means losing the \u201chumanistic sensibility\u201d required for close reading. It means neglecting the means of judging knowledge on the basis of human values. And in an age of technologies that proliferate information, the humanities alone teach the art of interpreting that knowledge, said Bhabha \u2014 and interpretation is \u201cthe heart of humanistic thinking.\u201d\nThen comes most important point, he said: The humanities create communities \u2014 \u201ccommunities of interpretation, communities of opinion, communities of thought. They are integrative. They pull things together.\u201d\nBhabha offered an example of the integrating force of the humanities by pointing to programs at the Mahindra Center. It is \u201cby any standard, a very modest Harvard institution,\u201d he said, but has programs that integrate the humanities with law, medicine, ecology, and the creative arts. \u201cThe pressure of the humanities is always to move and to look outward,\u201d said Bhabha. \u201cThey provide a matrix for thinking about civil society.\u201d\nTake that matrix away, or weaken it, and the potential of a new information age is suddenly without a means of interpreting all that information. Yes, you can call up the Encyclopaedia Britannica on your cellphone these days, said Bhabha. \u201cBut access to information is different from the intellectual labor of learning how to interpret it.\u201d\nMeanwhile, education cuts in Great Britain \u2014 where Bhabha did his graduate studies \u2014 are biting into humanities funding. And in his native India, he said, \u201cthe humanities are in real peril.\u201d The government wants to build more than a dozen new technical universities, he said, \u201cbut technical universities are like one-crop cultivation in the colonial period. When the sugar trade fails, the entire trade goes down.\u201d\nYoung students brought up with great technical skills may also end up being unemployable, he said. \u201cThey can\u2019t even write a letter.\u201d\nIn a world of speedy information retrieval, something more than data \u201cmust serve the past and the present,\u201d said Bhabha. \u201cIt\u2019s our obligation to the world.\u201d\n[Link via email from Percy Kavarana]\n\u2190 Parkinson\u2019s increasing footprint in India and Amongst the Parsi Community\nHasva Chalo Ji! \u2192",

        "raw_content": "A well-known scientist (some say it was Bertrand Russell) once gave a public lecture on astronomy. He described how the earth orbits around the sun and how the sun, in turn, orbits around the center of a vast collection of stars called our galaxy. At the end of the lecture, a little old lady at the back of the room got up and said: \u201cWhat you have told us is rubbish. The world is really a flat plate supported on the back of a giant tortoise.\u201d\nThe scientist gave a superior smile before replying, \u201cWhat is the tortoise standing on?\u201d\n\u201cYou\u2019re very clever, young man, very clever,\u201d said the old lady. \u201cBut it\u2019s turtles all the way down!\u201d\n\u2014 Stephen Hawking, A Brief History of Time (1988)\nSTEVEN L. BRIDGES: Looking ahead to your upcoming exhibition here at the Eli and Edythe Broad Art Museum (MSU Broad), I thought we could discuss your approach to art-making and some of the embedded references that I read in your work. I pulled the quote above from astrophysicist Stephen Hawking\u2019s book A Brief History of Time in part for its reference to this ancient notion of the world resting upon a tortoise shell\u2014a cosmological vision that can be found in many different cultures the world over\u2014which represents the \u201cinfinite regress\u201d problem one encounters when trying to pinpoint the origins of the universe. As part of the exhibition, you will present three sculptures that all incorporate roughly 30 million year old tortoise shells from the Oligocene era. How did you acquire these fossils and what drew you to them in the first place? Further, are you interested in the different cosmologies they embody, and, if so, to what end?\nDANIEL G. BAIRD: The tortoise fossils were sourced from a fossil-hunter in the Badlands of South Dakota. This area\u2019s unique geological formation exposes a rich and abundant fossil preserve where these objects from the past are close to the surface and accessible. Usually, the fossil remains are conserved into a polished state. It was important for me to acquire these objects in an unmodified, freshly excavated form to maintain the energy of their discovery.\nI like this cosmological analogy of the world consisting of \u2018turtles all the way down\u2019 very much. What interests me in these objects is wholly tied to the mythological connotations these reptiles embody, namely, that the world is contained within their shell. And in the quote above I prefer to think of the horizontal plane as a metaphor for the present moment, persistently replacing itself as time moves forward.\nBranching off of this notion of a horizon, or sedimentations of experience, I began to think of these objects photographically and how they stand as representations of the limits to what we have pursued through archaeology. At the moment of their death, these tortoises captured their world within and we now look at these objects in bewilderment and awe as embodiments of a time that is almost inconceivably distant and inaccessible to us. It is a silent archive without an experiential key.\nSLB: At the MSU Broad, you will create a new, large-scale piece that is made from the casting of a cave wall\u2014the largest of such casts you have ever made. Both the casting process as well as the way in which you plan to install the work recall the work of archaeologists. To make the work you travel to a particular site to make these casts, making the molds directly on the cave wall and then developing them further in the studio. This archaeological field work thus becomes an important part of your practice, and so I wonder how you came to work in this way.\nDGB: The idea of archaeology in my work has been a consistent focus. Early on, I was creating sculptures referencing objects of technology that were physically distant to me as a means to connect with a concept of technological sublimity and a base human desire towards immortality. I think what could be said is that even in the future pursuits of technology and progress that I am interested in, I am trying to make manifest their inherent collapse and replacement by other systems. The term \u2018future artifacts\u2019 has been used to describe my work and I am very happy with this concise description. It alludes to a collapsing of time within an object and the works comprehension bound by performing a leap in thinking outside of one\u2019s experience.\nThe works for MSU are a continuation of series begun a few years ago. The initial production occurs by making silicone replicas from actual cave walls, in the dark, with a headlamp, bats flying around my head and all. In sourcing these works, the process is one where I physically place the mold-making material onto the wall by hand resulting in a thin silicone layer that captures all the minute details of the wall. Finger impressions that make up the entire backside of the fragments remain as the remnants to a process of making. These indentations are instantly relatable as we all have had the experience of imprinting our hands into some malleable.\nWith each work, I\u2019m seeking to create a moment in the viewer where time is encountered as an abstraction and the roots of what we\u2019ve come to understand as the foundations of our progress are called into question or reconsidered.\nSLB: Along with different cosmologies, your sculptures also seem to be influenced by different philosophical traditions. With reference to the casts of the cave wall, I am immediately reminded of the famous passage from the Greek philosopher Plato in his book Republic. The figure of Socrates relates the allegory to us, describing a group of prisoners who live in a cave and, because they know no other reality, misidentify the shadows cast on the wall as the real things they refer to\u2014which, of course, they are not. Is this reference important to you, and does it offer any clues to the meaning and significance of your work?\nDGB: In producing the cave works I hadn\u2019t thought of the famous allegory from Plato but found myself referencing it when I spoke of those pieces. His idea of \u2018forms\u2019 I find very intriguing and I ran into a scenario where I had to confront them directly. I want to reference these cave rock formations as a type of tabula rasa of humanity\u2019s representational creative origin. Since they are direct casts from real places, the origin of where they are sourced instantly develops a type of sacred aura.\nThe source of a large amount of these pieces comes from one cave in particular which is located in rural Iowa. It is simply a cave amongst a few others. It contains no petroglyphs, no ancient artifacts or any other additional element that would bestow a sacredness to its existence. I wanted to use a cave that didn\u2019t have this added baggage of a pre-existing history because what I am interested in is the \u2018cave\u2019 as idea. The cave I reference, to me, stands in for all underground coverings that could potentially have housed or functioned like the caves of Lascaux or Chauvet. It is in this desire to represent \u2018cave-ness\u2019 that I ran into Plato\u2019s ideas directly and unexpectedly.",

That is, if residents like the plan elected officials have settled on.\nThe borough has announced plans to purchase the 19-acre property along Kings Highway for just over $12 million. The school had originally sought $20 million.\n\u201cIt is directly adjacent to our high school, and it\u2019s really the best spot in town where there\u2019s any sort of ground available for additional education facilities,\u201d explains Borough Commissioner Ed Borden.\nAlthough there will also be open space, how much depends on how much the state and county kicks in. The rest- along with school construction funds \u2013 will be floated in a bond issue subject to voter approval, which Borden expects in January.\nThe move is likely to satisfy those opposed to commercial development of the property, but there\u2019s still the question of abiding by a state mandate for more affordable housing in Haddonfield.\nMore from David Madden",

        "raw_content": "Pharmacy's New Health Destination\nBea Riemschneider, Group Editorial Director\nWalgreens' new pharmacy model reflects a strong focus on health and wellness.\nWhen Charles R. Walgreen Sr. decided to purchase the Chicago drugstore where he worked in 1901, this innovative pharmacist began a century of improvements sparked by entrepreneurship that has placed the Walgreen Co. on the map. You may have seen the recent commercial on television that shows Charles behind the counter as a voice declares that Walgreens launched the first malted milkshake in 1922\u2014\u201cdouble-rich chocolate malted milk\u201d\u2014enticing customers \u201cthree and four deep around the soda fountain.\u201d Today, Walgreens is enticing scores of new customers with a whole new type of store\u2014one that challenges the traditional image of a pharmacy.\nThe innovative flagship store, appropriately enough, opened its doors in Chicago, where Walgreens has a long history and a large footprint. Located in the heart of the historic State Street shopping district, the \u201cWell Experience\u201d store stands 2 stories tall and sits on the same location as the landmark Walgreens that stood on the corner of State and Randolph from 1926 to 2005 in Chicago\u2019s Loop.\n\u201cThis unique urban retailing concept raises the bar and sets us apart in our industry,\u201d said Joe Magnacca, Walgreens president of daily living products and solutions, when the store first opened on January 10, 2012. Chief Executive Officer Greg Wasson added, \u201cThe store brings together our most innovative, forward-thinking initiatives under one stunning roof, and we couldn\u2019t be more proud to make its debut in our hometown.\u201d\nTransforming the traditional drugstore concept\u2014from top to bottom\u2014this new store model directly impacts the daily lives of its customers. With store hours set at 7 days a week and open from 6:30 a.m. until midnight each weekday, the State Street Walgreens captures consumers on their way to work in a very busy downtown\u2014and also offers them late night retail shopping. The store also bustles during weekends, with late night Saturday and Sunday hours. Walgreens, which operates 7944 drugstores in 50 states, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico, zeroed in on the Chicago area to test this new store concept with this location and others in Illinois and Indiana.\nCurious shoppers who have stepped into the State Street store since it opened are lured by the new look, which they can easily see through the large windows. Fresh fruit, sushi, and made-to-order smoothies seen from the street level, however, are just a taste of what\u2019s inside.\nFor a start, the Upmarket Caf\u00e9 offers freshly brewed coffee and fresh-baked breads and pastries daily. A juice bar features fresh fruits and vegetables that can be transformed into those healthy smoothies as well as hundreds of takeaway food items, including wraps, salads, and sandwiches, all made on the premises for a new, unique lunch option while customers shop for health and beauty products. Fresh food in a drugstore\u2014that\u2019s what Chicagoans now experience as they have learned to expect the unexpected from this retail chain.\nFarther along the aisles on the first floor, a wide variety of convenience items line the shelves\u2014all items that the busy urban shopper needs in a hurry. And just behind the escalator that leads to the second floor sits a wine store-within-a-store with a \u201cbest-in-class\u201d selection of more than 700 wines on offer. A selection of artisan cheeses and chocolates tempt the gourmet shopper here.\nSpecial events regularly take place in this section, with stars like Dan Ackroyd launching a new wine. Most recently, celebrity singer Taylor Swift joined forces with Walgreens to launch the \u201cTaylor Swift Store at Walgreens\u201d at select Walgreens and Duane Reade locations to offer music and merchandise, including her new CD, \u201cRed.\u201d Walgreens has become a happening place.\nPharmacists Out Front\n\u201cSo, where is the pharmacy?\u201d asks one shopper who stopped to admire the tempting sushi being made by hand. Employees are more than happy to talk about their store and direct customers to the second level where a whole new world awaits. In the state-of-the-art pharmacy area, it\u2019s obvious that some customers have already gotten the hang of how this new health destination works. Pharmacist Nancy Salman, RPh, pharmacy manager, sits at a spotless white desk with a computer where she works with behind-the-scenes staff to fill and check prescriptions. But that is not all she can do. With this more visible location, she interacts with customers steadily\u2014after an iPad-equipped \u201chealth guide\u201d answers initial questions and helps navigate customers directly to products and services to fulfill their needs.\nThis new \u201cAsk Your Pharmacist\u201d desk underscores the important\u2014and very human\u2014role pharmacists can and do play for patients who are in need of health information right away. With this new model, the patient can visit with a trained medication expert face-to-face, without a barrier, and without distractions. Also part of this health destination space is Express Rx, self-serve touch-screen kiosks for convenient and fast prescription orders and pick-ups, as well as a clinic, where a wide range of health care services are offered\u2014including vaccinations, health tests, physicals, and treatments for common illnesses and minor injuries.\nA few steps away, sparkling well-lighted product displays for over-the-counter products, health and beauty items, and a \u201cLook Boutique\u201d beauty department beckon shoppers to check out the prestige and niche skin care and hair care brands, among other products. Tucked in one corner of the beauty section\u2014which looks much like an upscale department store\u2014 sits a nail salon offering manicures with the latest colors from essie and OPI. A \u201cVirtual Makeover\u201d kiosk gives customers the chance to experiment with shades and styles. This all goes in line with \u201cthe ultimate in service, convenience, assortment, and community pharmacy,\u201d according to Greg Wasson.\nThe pharmacy department is at the core of health and wellness, but greater access to healthy foods\u2014especially in underserved communities\u2014has not gone unnoticed. In July, First Lady Michelle Obama and the Partnership for a Healthier America announced a major new effort to expand this Chicago model, with Walgreens converting or opening ready access to fresh food in 1000 \u201cfood oasis\u201d stores across the country in the next 5 years.\nThe State Street Walgreens has certainly started a trend. No surprise from a company that launched a multitude of innovations over the years\u2014from the first child-resistant pill container to the first drugstore chain to offer prescription labels in multiple languages\u2014and Walgreens continues to take pharmacy to the next level and the store environment into new directions.\nBea Riemschneider is Group Editorial Director of Plantsvszombies.info and Specialty Plantsvszombies.info. She recently visited the Chicago flagship to explore the new store model.\nAlipay Now Available at Several Walgreens Locations\nFlorajen to Expand Access to Refrigerated Probiotics at Walgreens",

Physicians should use caution when prescribing the treatment to patients with established heart disease, according to a press release.\nThe new recommendation was made after a review of a 10-year follow-up trial of patients with coronary heart disease who were treated with the antibiotic.\nClarithromycin is typically used to treat multiple types of infections of the skin, ear, sinus, lung, and other parts of the body.\nFDA officials noted that the antibiotic is commonly used to treat Mycobacterium avium complex infection, which is a lung infection that often affects people with HIV.\nIn the CLARICOR clinical trial, the researchers discovered an increase in mortality among patients with coronary heart disease who were treated with a 2-week course of clarithromycin.\nAt this time, it is unclear why the antibiotic would result in an increased risk of death compared with placebo, according to the release.\nCertain observational studies showed clarithromycin was linked to an increase in mortality and other cardiovascular-related events, while others did not; however, all of the studies had design limitations, according to the FDA.\nOf the 6 observational studies, 2 discovered evidence of long-term risks with clarithromycin among patients with or without heart disease, while 4 did not.\nOverall, the FDA ruled that results from the CLARICOR trial provided strong evidence that clarithromycin may increase risks compared with other observational studies.\nAs a result of these findings, the FDA added a warning about the increased risk of mortality in patients with coronary artery disease. Additionally, these study results were added to the clarithromycin drug label, according to the release.\nAs part of ongoing safety monitoring, the FDA plans to continue monitoring safety reports for patients taking clarithromycin.\nThe agency is also advising prescribers to use other antibiotics in all patients, especially those with coronary heart disease. Prescribers should also educate patients with heart disease of the signs and symptoms of cardiovascular problems, regardless of the reason for using clarithromycin, according to the release.\nFDA officials urge patients to inform health care professionals if they have heart disease, especially when being treated for an infection. Patients should also not discontinue clarithromycin treatment without consulting their health care provider, according to the release.\nClarithromycin (Biaxin): Drug Safety Communication - Potential Increased Risk of Heart Problems or Death in Patients With Heart Disease [FDA safety communication].

        "raw_content": "On November 18, 2003, former pharmaceutical stock analyst Dick Vietor gave what will likely be his final address to the PMCQ.\nVietor, who had been a very popular speaker every year until his retirement from investment giant Merrill Lynch, had not graced the Dorval Hilton with his presence since 2000.\nThis time around, Vietor explained that his talk would be different from previous visits. Now a consultant for the Internet-based medical information service WebMD, Vietor explained that the only companies he could insult \"are not clients of WebMD.\" Those in attendance, many of whom had grown used to Vietor's witty verbal jabs at all but a choice few companies, seemed disappointed by the remark.\nVietor also explained how the explosive growth and subsequent bursting of the tech bubble had fundamentally changed the role of the stock analyst. During the tech craze, he said, stock analysts became \"rock stars\" and \"sold their reputations for the money\".Since then, the legality of stock analysis has changed, with the advent of disclosure regulations. \"Don't listen to analysts,\" Vietor advised. \"They're not allowed to have insight anymore. Use your own counsel and be very careful of who you listen to-including me.\"\nInstead of scribbling down stock tips, therefore, those in the audience put down their pens and listened to Vietor's take on the role of the Internet in the future of pharmaceutical marketing.\nWhile he explained that the Internet provides nearly unlimited potential to get their marketing messages to physicians and patients, \"drug companies are behind the curve\". Pharma companies, he pointed out, spend less than 1% of their budgets on Internet-less than the amount spent on radio ads or billboards.\nHe did, however, say that some firms (Eli Lilly, Wyeth, Johnson & Johnson and AstraZeneca) were better than others at using the Internet to promote their products. When asked what the biggest challenges are facing today's pharmaceutical industry, Vietor emphasized the need for management to break out of their old-fashioned ways and keep up with the times, to reduce the costs associated with bringing a drug to market and to build stronger pipelines.\nFollowing his talk, Vietor informed the crowd that while he has enjoyed his visits to Montreal over the years, he would not likely be returning to speak at future PMCQ events.",

(Images)\nby Evan BlassDecember 14, 2011 12:04 am\nWe just got a user\u2019s manual for a purported Symbian Belle-powered device claiming to be the Nokia 803; what we didn\u2019t get were any features or specs to go along with the document. Our immediate reaction upon seeing the rather large camera hump was, of course, that we were looking at the rumored successor to the 12-megapixel Nokia N8 \u2014 one of the greatest cameraphones ever made.\nUnfortunately, the manual doesn\u2019t go into much detail about the 803\u2019s functionality beyond the basics, although we were able to glean the somewhat-predictable inclusion of NFC capabilities, HDMI, and DLNA. It was also made clear that this is not a finalized document, meaning that any of the information or images are subject to change before publication.\nIf this is indeed the next imaging flagship, Unwired View has told us to expect a 1GHz (apparently single-core) processor, 3.5-inch WVGA ClearBlack display with Gorilla Glass, and 512MB of RAM. The camera sensor is said to be even bigger than the N8\u2019s, while the lens may feature an optical zoom.\nObviously no word on a launch or release window here (Unwired suggests a Mobile World Congress debut in February), but now that we know this handset\u2019s model number \u2014 RM-807 \u2014 we can at least track it through the FCC and various other certification bodies.\nNews, Nokia, Rumors, Symbian Belle",

        "raw_content": "Create High-Ticket Programs with Frank Bria\nDecember 1, 2016 May 11, 2018 / Episodes / By Chris Badgett / 4 Comments\nIn this LMScast Chris Badgett of codeBOX discusses ways to create high-ticket programs with Frank Bria, host of the Scale to Success podcast and creator of the High-Ticket Program. We\u2019ll be covering pricing, scaling, and the basic building blocks of a successful program.\nFrank offers some of his keys to building a high-end course, beginning with pricing based on the value of knowledge. The problem is that knowledge is becoming less valuable over time, so you want to base your pricing on the results you\u2019ll deliver to the customer. If you switch to outcome based thinking in developing your courses, your customers will be able to see immediate life-changing value in what you\u2019re offering them.\nPeople buy things for one of 4 reasons: to make money, save money, stay out of jail, or realize a better life. You need to identify which of those 4 outcomes your courses provide for. What most entrepreneurs do wrong is to play the psychological game of making people want something to ease their pain, but then being ambiguous about how you\u2019re going to deliver on your promise. You do need to create that gap, but you also have to bridge the gap. Customers need to see that you have a map and a plan to take them where they need to go.\nFrank then explains the SAM Framework for resolving the 3 core customer objections and how to get past those objections through providing the skills, accountability, and mentorship they need to achieve their desired results. Training is not enough \u2013 you need to walk them through the processes using tools like a Facegroup or mastermind group, email program, Q&A sessions, or other intentional ways of delivering on your promise.\nChris and Frank talk about the fears that often prevent people from making the transition from a highly successful career to providing online courses as a business. Frank explains his pricing theory and tells how to think about pricing for the results you provide online at the same rates you have charged conventionally, because you should basically make the same money for the same result.\nThey discuss the 5 building blocks you need to create high value programs, which are virtual training, a mastermind group, coaching, a done-for-you service, and live events and workshops. You can get Frank Bria\u2019s free blueprint for his 3 steps to create high-ticket programs here.\nChris: Hello, and welcome back to another episode of LMScast. In this session we\u2019re talking with Frank Bria from Scale to Success and the creator of High-Ticket Program, and we\u2019re going to get into some really interesting ways to look at pricing, scaling, and really when you\u2019re designing your courses, that you make sure that you take certain essential building blocks into account if you want to build a successful and scalable program. Frank, thank you for coming on the show.\nFrank: Hey, my pleasure. It\u2019s a honor to be on your program. Thanks.\nChris: All right. Let\u2019s get right into it. You\u2019re known as the high-ticket guy so what are some of the keys of building a high end course? We get asked this a lot. How do I price my course or if I want to create a premium course, what are the key parts of that but what are some common misconceptions and then how do we get into really starting off strong going for high-ticket in the beginning?\nFrank: Yeah, it\u2019s a great question. Basically one of the things that makes it tough when it comes down to pricing is what is the value of knowledge. That fundamentally is the question that we end up asking and I think that\u2019s actually the problem because it\u2019s a trap question. It\u2019s like a trick question. What\u2019s the value of knowledge? Whatever it is, I don\u2019t know the answer of what\u2019s the value of knowledge but I can tell you this for sure. Whatever the value of knowledge is today, tomorrow it will be less.\nFrank: Price of knowledge is going down for sure. There are already people running around saying the price of knowledge is free. Content is free. Whatever. It makes it tough when we are trying to make a business out of teaching. It makes it tough to come up with good pricing. Obviously you want to be paid for your efforts so how do you pull that off? The answer that I\u2019ve come up with, that I think makes the most sense to me personally based on my background and the kind of work that I\u2019ve done is to stop asking about the price of knowledge and to start asking about the price of results.\nWhat is the price of the outcome? Because we\u2019re learning for a particular purpose. We\u2019re learning for an outcome so the example I love to give is the example of someone who teaches a Twitter course. What\u2019s the purpose of learning how to use Twitter? It\u2019s not so that you can feel better about using Twitter. Maybe it is. Maybe we\u2019re feeling less frustrated and it\u2019s easier to live my life but the whole point is if you\u2019re a business owner and you\u2019re using Twitter, you\u2019re doing it specifically to gain leads, to get sales.\nThe value in the knowledge of getting sales is the value in the sales. That\u2019s now something I can quantify and that\u2019s something where actually price isn\u2019t going to go down. It\u2019s actually going to go up over time. If we can make this switch of worrying about how much we price the knowledge and how much we price the results, if we can switch over to outcome based thinking in what we do, then we\u2019re in a much better place. We\u2019re in a place where prices go up, we\u2019re in a place where we can charge high-ticket, we\u2019re in a place where our clients see the immediate value.\nWe don\u2019t have this thing where it\u2019s like, \u201cI went through your 8 modules and watched your videos. I just didn\u2019t really think it was worth $99.\u201d All of that just goes away and we\u2019re back to a place of you got results. You got money out of this. The challenge I think there is that a lot of times when we develop courses, we don\u2019t think about outcomes. We think about learning outcomes. That\u2019s a instructional design thing but we don\u2019t really think about life outcomes, like life changing outcomes and so I tell people, \u201cFind your life changing outcome. What is the outcome you\u2019re trying to generate for your audience that is life changing?\u201d\nIf you think I\u2019m overstating it by saying, \u201clife changing outcome\u201d you\u2019re probably in the wrong business because I think as an entrepreneur we should all be out there trying to make big impact and that\u2019s the ticket to high sales. People always say, \u201cWhat\u2019s the ticket? What\u2019s the secret to selling something for high-ticket?\u201d The secret is changing lives. Period. That\u2019s it exactly.\nChris: That\u2019s really cool. Let\u2019s give out some examples of a big outcome. It\u2019s funny in the online course space in some ways you have to work a lite harder for it where as in society at large, sometimes there\u2019s some assumptions in operation where people don\u2019t think twice about $100 grand in debt for a education. I\u2019m not saying that\u2019s good or bad I\u2019m just saying it\u2019s more just assumed that that\u2019s there but I don\u2019t know. I\u2019m just thinking off the top of my head. I would pay a lot of money for something related to my kids and their health and wellness and well being or a elderly parent or if I was trying to make a career move and have a much better paying career, that\u2019s of value to me.\nFrank: Absolutely. Yep. The way I look at it is this and this may be really I don\u2019t know, very tactical but I think people buy stuff for 1 of 4 reasons and only 4 reasons. They either buy something to make money, to save money, to stay out of jail, or to have a better life. That\u2019s it. Really.\nFrank: We can categorize all these great outcomes into one of those 4 buckets. The trick is that what a lot of people think actually my audience buys things for more than one of those reasons. Maybe they buy things to make money and have a better life. I guess my argument is that deep down inside that\u2019s probably not true. Deep down inside your audience probably really only has 1 thing in mind. Think about it this way.\nLet\u2019s say that I was a business coach as an example and so I\u2019m a business coach whose goal it is for you to make more money and of course with that more money you\u2019ll have a better life. That\u2019s one business model. Now let\u2019s say I\u2019m a business coach whose goal it is to have you have a better life and really enjoy your life. Of course you\u2019re going to need money to be able to do that. You can see those are 2 different businesses. They\u2019re going to attract 2 different kinds of consumers. They\u2019re going to teach different things. They\u2019re going to focus on different things.\nEven though we think we\u2019re doing 2 things at the same time, we\u2019re really not. We\u2019re really only doing 1. To your point earlier, here\u2019s the gotcha. People typically spend way more money to have a better life than they do on any of the other 3. Maybe not stay out of jail.\nChris: What\u2019s an example stay out of jail thing?\nFrank: Attorneys keep people out of jail.\nChris: Okay right.\nFrank: Also there\u2019s lots of management consultants whose job it is to keep you in line with tax laws and compliance regulations and stuff. I put it in there because there\u2019s all sorts of businesses that keep you out of trouble with the government and of course you spend money on that knowing you\u2019re not going to get any of it back. You pay your CPA, that doesn\u2019t really help you. Your tax CPA different story. Maybe he can help you.\nChris: You\u2019re avoiding pain or potential pain.\nFrank: Yeah exactly. People, and this is the funny thing, people who are dead broke, in our industry, we have all these people who are like, \u201cI\u2019d love to pay for your course but I don\u2019t have any money because I can\u2019t pay the rent\u201d and all this stuff. Yeah. Watch those people get a DUI. They have $10,000 like that to pay for an attorney to keep them out of jail. Those people will find the money. Definitely there\u2019s this box that\u2019s important to keep your eye out on.\nThe thing is that the better life thing, like you said. Your kids having a better life, you getting a better career, you being able to take more vacations, those sorts of things people pay money for. The trick is is that it\u2019s hard to quantify but the good news is people sort of mentally put a good premium on that outcome.\nChris: If I want a better life and I\u2019m going to have more free time, I think the popular culture assumption is that there\u2019s a lot of snake oil or just disingenuous offers out there. As somebody who really believes in a product they\u2019re creating to give people a better life and free up more time through building a better business or whatever it is, how do I trust you or how do you handle objections?\nFrank: Absolutely. That is the \u2026 Before we get to the answer, let me tell you what everyone is doing that is absolutely wrong about this. This is the thing. The classic marketing stuff tells you to build a gap. You create this wonderful picture of how things can be in the future and you get them to mentally invest in all this really awesome stuff happening in their life and then you get them back to today, why it\u2019s not happening and what all the challenges are and all the problems and you get them to feel the pain and you get them to want that gap and you make that really painful and then you stop.\nThat is the mistake. That\u2019s what causes the snake oil salesman. Anyone can do that. Anyone can play the psychological game where you make people want something and you realize they don\u2019t have it and you make it hurt enough and you use the right words and neurolinguistic programming and all this kind of stuff and then suddenly people are going to pay you tons of money without anything and I just think those days are almost over because people are getting wise to it.\nThe difference is is that yes, you do need to create that gap but you also have to provide a bridge over the gap. You don\u2019t have to give them the answer but you have to say that you have the way. The way I love to think about this is I think about the 1 thing that I follow absolutely even if my gut tells me it\u2019s wrong and that\u2019s my GPS. If I\u2019m in my car driving and that little voice tells me to turn left and deep down inside, it\u2019s like, \u201cNope, turn right. You got to turn right.\u201d I know everyone in the audience has totally been there. You\u2019re coming up to the intersection and you\u2019re like, \u201cI\u2019m supposed to turn right. I\u2019m supposed to turn right\u201d and it says, \u201cTurn left, turn left.\u201d At the last minute you\u2019re like, \u201cI\u2019m turning left\u201d even though you think you\u2019re supposed to turn right.\nWhy do you do that? Because you can see on the map that there\u2019s a line between where you are and where you want to go and so your absolutely 100% certain that even if maybe it\u2019s the long way or it\u2019s an extra turn out of the way, you have a path to get there and that\u2019s what we as teachers and service providers need to provide for our clients. They need turn by turn directions on how they get from where they are today to where they\u2019re going to go. That doesn\u2019t mean we give them that all away for free but they have to see the line on the map that traces over the gap. You don\u2019t have to provide the bridge to get there. When you do, it\u2019s not snake oil anymore. It\u2019s, \u201cOh, first I have to do this. Then I\u2019m going to have to do that. Then I\u2019m going to have to do that.\u201d\nOnce you can provide that level of detail, you can get rid of that part of the objections of okay yeah you actually have a plan. You\u2019re not just talking about let\u2019s figure it out together. This is really actually something worth investing in\nChris: That\u2019s really cool. That makes a lot of sense. In terms of that path and you have the milestones and the individual components, I heard from you something about Sam framework. Can you tell me more about that?\nFrank: Yeah sure absolutely. Because we talk about results and this comes back to your still part of your question like how do you resolve the objections. There are objections and programs not enough. The way I like to describe it is that there are 3 objections that your prospect has. 1, you don\u2019t have a program to get me there. 2, I don\u2019t trust you and 3, I don\u2019t trust me. Those are really your major objections. You\u2019ve got to somehow get past those and here\u2019s the real trick. Your prospect may tell you they have objections to your program if you\u2019re lucky. They may tell you they don\u2019t trust you if you\u2019re really lucky but they\u2019re not going to tell you that they don\u2019t trust them.\nYou have to know that this is going on in the head of your prospect. How do you do that? One of the ways to really focus on the \u201cI don\u2019t trust me\u201d the prospect doesn\u2019t trust themselves is that they\u2019ve probably invested in training before and haven\u2019t gotten results or they\u2019ve gone through other people\u2019s stuff and found it was snake oil. Because we\u2019re focusing on outcome, because we\u2019re focusing on results, there are really 3 things that you need to provide your prospect in order to get those results. 1 is skills. Absolutely. You have to teach skills.\nAnother one is accountability because your prospects going to have to need to do something. If they don\u2019t have to do anything, what\u2019s the whole purpose of this? They\u2019re going to have to to do something and you\u2019re going to have to hold them to do that something and the 3rd thing is mentorship. The difference between accountability and mentorship is accountability says, \u201cThe learner needs to do something.\u201d Mentorship is, \u201cThe learner needs to observe something.\u201d They need to watch you. You as the expert whether that\u2019s seeing examples, whether that\u2019s asking questions, whether that\u2019s getting feedback from the thing that your learner is actually doing.\nAll 3 of those things need to happen. You can\u2019t just teach skills. The example I give is if you don\u2019t believe me, go get brain surgery from the guy who just read the textbook. No one\u2019s going to go do that. You want them to have walked through this with someone who watched what they did before they operate on you. The same things true with your prospect. They want to make sure that they\u2019re surrounded by this. Training isn\u2019t enough. You can\u2019t \u2026 Training is great. You get skills that way but if you really want to create high-ticket results oriented programs, you have to provide for accountability and mentorship as well. How are you going to do that?\nMaybe it\u2019s a Facebook group, maybe you have a mastermind, maybe you have an email accountability follow up program. Maybe you have Q&A sessions whatever it is. You have to come up with some intentional way of delivering on those. We call that a Sam profile. That\u2019s skills accountability and mentorship. Every stage of the learning process you need to identify what the Sam profile is of that stage and then deliver on it.\nChris: That\u2019s very cool. Let me take a slight detour and just ask you a personal question that I\u2019m wondering about which as somebody who\u2019s worked with a lot of entrepreneurs and helped a lot of people launch courses and do other things in business, I\u2019m aware of this whole fear of success thing and I used to not believe it or understand it. Then over and over again, right on the 5 yard line, right before launch or right before it\u2019s almost done or almost about to go into the world, inevitably, and I\u2019ve recognized this in myself too. I\u2019m not free of this but where does that come from? Do you have any thoughts on that just in terms of helping people get through that? Is that from a lack of mentorship? Is that from a lack of the right skills or where does that come from?\nFrank: That\u2019s a great question. I think there are 3 components to fear of success. 1 is just mindset stuff. It\u2019s the whole impostor syndrome. I don\u2019t belong here. How did I get here? I don\u2019t know what the heck I\u2019m doing. Of course that breeds a whole bunch of, \u201coh no, all of these people are now trusting me to help deliver some great result and if I fail, I don\u2019t just fail me, I fail all of them.\u201d We all have that.\nI think anybody who doesn\u2019t have that is a sociopath. We all have that and anyone who says they don\u2019t is a liar. It\u2019s there. The thing we have to do is admit it\u2019s there and I think we do need mentors to help us through. I certainly have a mentor. I\u2019ve had mentors in the past. One of my mentors is Michael Port and he\u2019s been an incredible teacher and mentor to me and yeah, there have been times where I\u2019ve been in that moment of, \u201cOh no, this is\u201d and he\u2019s been the perfect guy who\u2019s been like, \u201cYou are the next big thing\u201d and I\u2019ve been like, \u201cWow, you can say that about me?\u201d It shakes you out of it.\nWe absolutely need mentorship to help us through that and people who have been there before and can recognize that in us. That\u2019s definitely one. The second thing is is I think fear of success can often come from a lack of planning. Okay great, now what? Let\u2019s just say I get this across the 5 yard line and I make the touchdown. Now what? Now I\u2019m going to have to do something I\u2019ve never done before and so that is I think a combination of skills and mentorship. What is the next stage? What are you doing to do next? This happens a lot in service businesses where I talk to service providers, even really successful ones where I say to them, \u201cOkay listen, your client\u2019s not in the room. We have the cone of silence on. You can be honest now.\u201d Honestly, right before you sign up that big project, right before they sign on the line, there\u2019s a little twinge inside of you that\u2019s like, \u201cOh crap. There goes my schedule.\u201d You know what I mean?\nFrank: We\u2019re really excited about the revenue. We want the money. We totally want it coming in but there\u2019s this little, \u201cOh crap, that\u2019s going to be a lot of work\u201d and I do think that that element of \u2026 It\u2019s like not matching our plan. The business is incongruent with the life we want to live and I do think that a lot of fear of success has to do with I\u2019m successful in the metrics that everyone\u2019s telling me I should be successful in like revenue but for some reason it doesn\u2019t feel like success. Every win feels like it\u2019s a bit of a pure victory. There is that for sure.\nI think that\u2019s a business model change and we do need I think people to point out to us, \u201cHey, if you\u2019re having a twinge of regret every single time a client signs up, there\u2019s a problem that you probably need to fix.\u201d You probably need to figure out what your selling and how it aligns to what you want to be doing.\nThe third thing is accountability. I think every single on of us gets to that \u2026 There\u2019s a part of us that gets to that 5 yard line and it\u2019s like what do you have to do to get it over the line? It\u2019s extra work. It\u2019s the classic 80/20 rule. 80% of the effort to get the last 20% done and sometimes you just need somebody to just kick your butt and help you get that last little bit done. I think if you take a look at all of those pieces together, that helps us \u2026 That means you can surround yourself with the resources you need to ensure success when you get it to that red zone.\nChris: Awesome. A lot of people listening to this episode I know because I talk to a lot of people as they\u2019re starting to get into thinking about online courses and different part of that journey but a lot of them are highly successful, make good money consultants and service providers who really want to get into the product ties service or the done for you. I\u2019m going to take my service and I\u2019m going to package it into a course to get the same result for the client. What is the key for making that leap because it\u2019s a big leap and it\u2019s also really scary for people to do but how can they do it without the fear and how can they do it the right way and can you save them some classic stumbling blocks in that transition?\nFrank: I\u2019ll tell you the biggest problem that usually happens when people make that transition. You\u2019ve got a classic consultant or high value service provider. When they do project work, when they do one on one work, they\u2019re making good money. They\u2019re charging 40, 50 $70,000 or something. Some of my clients they\u2019re charging $150,000. Before I made the switch over, my clients I was charging them $350,000. How do you make that switch over?\nHere\u2019s the big challenge. Go out on the internet and you start looking at courses and course providers and you start looking at price points. You see everything. You\u2019re going to see $19, $99, $500, $2000, all over the map. When I started doing courses, I joined, I won\u2019t even say the name but I joined this one platform for courses. You put your course up there and then you put the price that it\u2019s $799 and then you immediately mark it down to $19 with this idea of getting this flood of people in.\nOkay great. Do the math. If I\u2019m going to take the time away from my $70,000 consulting engagement to sell $2000 courses let\u2019s just say, you have to sell 35 of those things in order to make it make some sense and that takes some time. If you talk about a $19, forget it. The numbers are just astronomical. The biggest challenge people have is how do I keep my cash flow going when I make the switch over and I blow away the premise entirely at the beginning. There\u2019s this idea that when you create scalable income that you have to start small and you start with the low stuff and you get your foot in the door and you build this ascension ladder of smaller then bigger then bigger then bigger then bigger and then one of these days maybe I\u2019ll create that wonderful mastermind where we take the 5 people to Tahiti and charge them $100,000.\nIsn\u2019t that the internet marketing bill? I just think that whole thing is crap. The whole idea of doing that is complete crap. The idea behind being a high valued service provider is that you\u2019re creating results for your clients. If you create results for your clients, you can do so in a scalable way. You don\u2019t have to do it in a way that sells your time but if you\u2019re getting those same results, why in the world would your prices drop? If you\u2019re priced correctly and you\u2019re charging $70,000 because they\u2019re getting at least 10-20x return on investment. They\u2019re making $700 to $1.4 million lets say on your stuff.\nGreat. If you do it in a way that doesn\u2019t sell your time and they\u2019re getting the same results, why should your price change? You should be able to charge big money for that exact same result. You probably can\u2019t do it by just putting a couple of videos online. You\u2019re not going to basically get rid of yourself and all of the things that you do with a couple of video training programs but the training is a core component of an overall program. When you plan correctly and you look at the accountability and the mentorship component as well and you design something that gets your client the same result, then you should not be messing around with $500 courses. You should be charging 10, 20, 50, $100,000.\nI have a client who has a scalable program that costs $100,000 and that\u2019s because the client gets $1 to $2 million of benefit out of it. It\u2019s all about the value that you\u2019re providing. If you do that first, you don\u2019t have to worry about where\u2019d my money go? That\u2019s the big challenge of making that transition.\nChris: That\u2019s awesome. Let me ask you a question before we get into the stack for programs. What are the key pieces? If we\u2019re looking at something where it\u2019s not obvious what our starting point is that we want to provide a result of 10x value, let\u2019s say you\u2019re looking at something like health. How do you quantify that in terms of 10x result? I know they\u2019ll live long enough to see their grandkids or there\u2019s other ways to talk about it but if it\u2019s not obvious if you take my $10,000 course you can get this $100,000 job in a year, that\u2019s kind of obvious.\nWith the more abstract or subjective results, how do you do that? How do you-\nFrank: Yeah. Great question. The answer is unfortunately you have to ask. It\u2019s basically price testing but before we get to that easy tactical piece, let\u2019s talk about 1 strategic element of that which is really important.\nFrank: If you are providing the better life component. We talked about that 4th reason people buy. You have to understand that the value you provide is highly dependent on the person taking that program. For example, I have a client who is a dietitian and she helps women get over digestive IBS issues and basically gets their time back and the program that she offers is for women entrepreneurs who basically are losing 5-10 hours a week because of their health and their business. Get that 5-10 hours back and put it back in their business, basically they get a return on that investment.\nFrank: If she was going to offer that exact same program to somebody who let\u2019s say just occasionally has stomach pains, they\u2019re not going to pay $14,000 for her program which is how much it costs because the value to that woman isn\u2019t the same.\nValue depends on it\u2019s in the eye of the beholder and a lot of times what happens is we\u2019ll say, \u201cI help you prioritize your life better so that you can spend time doing the things you really enjoy.\u201d Great, that\u2019s awesome. 1 person who doesn\u2019t have a real pain point around that is like, \u201cThat\u2019s lame, I wouldn\u2019t pay very much for that\u201d and then we as the course creator go, \u201cOh, no. I\u2019ve got something that\u2019s not very much of value.\u201d No. We got to go find the audience where it is of value and there\u2019s going to be an audience where it\u2019s a very very painful problem.\nWhen I was a corporate consultant and I worked on 5 continents, I was flying all over the place and 350,000 miles a year, if somebody told me that there was going to be a way to prioritize my life so that I could spend more time with my family, I would have paid a ton of money for that. It all comes down to finding the right audience. It\u2019s not just a matter of identifying exactly what the outcome is but it\u2019s also finding the people who care.\nOnce you find the people who care you have to ask them. This is a core piece that I really strongly believe in. A lot of people when they create courses or programs, the very first thing they do is they put up a lead magnet and they start sending Facebook traffic to it and all this stuff and I hate that because it totally cuts your legs out from underneath you in getting feedback, desperate feedback that you need. I think that you really need to validate your course or your program with pilot clients.\nThat means actually going and talking to people, not as part of a sales conversation but literally as a validation process. Here\u2019s the problem I\u2019m trying to solve. Here\u2019s the pain I think you have. Let me validate that. Does that make sense? Do you feel that pain? Is that something you\u2019d invest some money in? How much money would you invest to make that problem go away? You tell me. By the way, I\u2019m thinking of charging X. Would you pay that or not?\nHere\u2019s the other trick. If I talk to 7 people about price and all 7 of them tell me that the price is good, my price is too low.\nChris: Right. Right.\nFrank: This is something that people don\u2019t understand about pricing theory is that you actually want 30-40% of people to say yes and then you know your price is good because you\u2019ll get a good conversion rate and you\u2019ll also make money out of it so if i make 7 validation calls, I want 5 of the 7 people to basically validate that I\u2019ve got the right problem and the right solution. It\u2019s something they would invest in and yes, all of the words you\u2019re using, they make sense to me. All that stuff.\nOf those 7 people, I only want 3 people to tell me that they would buy at the price that I\u2019m offering because that gives me about a 42% conversion rate which is better than a 33 which is what I usually shoot for. Then I know I\u2019m not under charging. Sometimes the nos in the validation tell us just as much as the yeses do.\nChris: Very cool. In terms of pricing, last question here, what is the stack to create high value programs? There\u2019s online courses but there\u2019s more to it. What else could you do? Some ways in our world we call that blended learning a little bit where there\u2019s different modalities to connect with people whether it be events, the online course, and whatever but what is your stack?\nFrank: Exactly. I always focus on scalable methods so I don\u2019t like one on one, I don\u2019t like projects. Those are custom projects. I don\u2019t like those so I immediately throw those off. If we\u2019re going to build a program, I want it to be something that\u2019s scalable and for me scalable means that every new client does not take up any more of your time.\nFrank: That\u2019s the goal. On day 1 we\u2019re not going to have that, but the goal is we want to create that. If that\u2019s the case, if that\u2019s the goal then I see there\u2019s basically 5 building blogs. They\u2019re like Legos. You can have them put together any way that you want that make up that process. We\u2019ve already talked about one, that\u2019s virtual training. Makes total sense. It\u2019s probably a core component of every program. Some kind of virtual training.\n2 is a mastermind. When I talk about masterminds, I want to talk about a real mastermind. I\u2019m not talking about the, \u201cOh I just wrote my book and so now I\u2019m going to create a mastermind.\u201d That\u2019s not masterminds. Masterminds are specifically a small group of people with a very particular goal together for accountability and you are a facilitator. You\u2019re not the expert, you\u2019re not the guru, you\u2019re just facilitating the dialogue. The learning happens between the participants. They keep themselves accountable, they meet together on a regular basis to do that. That\u2019s what a true mastermind is.\nThe third building block is group coaching. This is actually what most people call a mastermind but it\u2019s really group coaching and that is where you are the guru, you are the expert, you\u2019re providing mentorship mostly for a group. Answering questions, showing examples, bringing them things that you think would be useful. You\u2019re the curator of the group. The fourth thing is a done for you service. A lot of people go, \u201cWait a minute, Frank, you just said no project work.\u201d Done for you services are a little bit different. When I talk about done for you service, I\u2019m talking about a very specific outcome that you know how to create and you can create a very specific process that generates it. Almost like it\u2019s a manufacturing process.\nIt\u2019s the difference between a custom project where you go when your client says, \u201cWhat can you do?\u201d You go, \u201cI don\u2019t know what do you need?\u201d That\u2019s a custom project. We\u2019re not in that business but you need your course setup on our system? Yeah we do that because it requires step A, step B, step C, step D. Every single time. We have people for that. We have a bench of folks that do that work. You on day 1 might be the person doing that work but the idea is that you can train somebody to take your job.\nThe last one are live events and workshops. All 5 of those Lego blogs have different Sam profiles. Back to the skills, accountability and mentorship. Virtual training provides skills but it doesn\u2019t provide any accountability and mentorship. While a mastermind is a horrible place to teach skills and actually doesn\u2019t do a lot of mentoring but it\u2019s great accountability. If you look at those different blocks, you\u2019re going to use them in different ways and you can actually design it really intentionally to make sure that you\u2019re getting the results that your folks need.\nChris: That\u2019s awesome. That\u2019s a really powerful stack there. Frank Bria, ladies and gentlemen. If people want to hear more about what you\u2019re up to and how you can help them more, where do you want to send them?\nFrank: If people are interested in this stack and how to put that together, we have a blueprint that actually walks through the 3 stages of putting a high-ticket program together. If you go to frankbria.com/blueprint, you can get it for free.\nFrank: Download it for free and it\u2019ll walk you through those 3 big steps and it talks about some of the things that we\u2019ve talked about in more depth.\nChris: Perfect. Thank you Frank for coming on the show. We\u2019ll have to do this again sometime.\nFrank: Yeah, my pleasure. It was a lot of fun.\nChris: Have an awesome day.\n4 thoughts on \u201cCreate High-Ticket Programs with Frank Bria\u201d\nNeil Gilmour\nGreat \u2018cast Chris and Frank \u2013 thank you! It\u2019s interesting to hear Frank turn things on their head, and I can really see where you guys have followed his advice.\nChris Badgett\nGlad you like it Neil!

I am happy that he left behind a good legacy, and children such as you who would continue to shine the light and make sure that he is remembered.\nPaul, life is good, but one thing we all need to know is that the life that we currently live in, is not the only life. There is an eternal life, which is a life beyond this life that we are living in. The eternal life would last forever. We gain entry into the eternal life based on our relationship with God. The story even gets better, if we build a good relationship with God, we would also inherit good things in this life. Building a relationship with God is a win-win. It is how we can get across both this life and through to the next life without any deep regrets. God is love, he is a true father, and he is still in the business of making a bad situation good, and a good situation even better.\nI do not know whether you have a relationship with God already or not. If you already do, then congratulations, you are on the right path. Just keep praying, keep obeying the word of God and keep trusting in God. Focus on strengthening your relationship with him, and his promises would be made manifest in your life. If you do not yet have a relationship with God, you are in luck, I have some exciting details about God to share with you.\nYou may have heard that God is the creator of the universe and everything within it. This claim is 100% true. God did create everything in the universe, including us humans. Like a good father loves his children, God loves each and every one of us dearly. He likes to provide for us, to bless us, and to help us. His intention is to provide for us in this life and to also grant us eternal life. Eternal life is the life after this life that we are currently living, you can simply call it the after-life. Eternal life would last forever. Not everybody would gain access into the eternal life. Since that life would last forever and in it people would not die, it would not make sense to allow in violent people, liars, thieves and others. Since these people would not die, there would be no end to the problems that they would cause. Therefore, only the purest people are allowed in. We humans cannot be pure by ourselves. We are prone to envy, lying, cheating others and so much more. We learn to do these bad things from such a young age, by the time we reach adulthood, we are already too far gone in it. For this reason, God sent his son Jesus to die for our sins so that we can be easily redeemed and saved. The blood of Jesus has made us pure and worthy. After the death of Jesus, all we need to do is to believe in Jesus and obey the Word of God, and those are the core for gaining access into eternal life. Like I mentioned earlier, God loves to bless us, and he desires to give us everything that we need. However, because God exists in the spiritual realm and we exist in the physical realm, we need to learn to understand how God communicates and to build a relationship with him in order to understand him. Over the course of building a relationship with him, you would understand how he works and how to locate the blessings that he has sent to you both in this life and for the next.\nGod wants you to inherit eternal life, as a matter of fact, eternal life is one of God\u2019s greatest gifts to humankind. Nevertheless, God also cares about how you fare in this life. He wants you to know that he loves you. He does not ever want you to feel alone, confused, anxious or sad. He wants you to know the provisions that he has made for you. Like a good father, he loves us and he would like us to love him and obey him. He has put everything in place for our good. There are numerous bible verses that exemplify God\u2019s love for us, here are a few:\nThe Bible says in Romans 8: 38 \u2013 39\n\u201cFor I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons,[a] neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, 39 neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord\u201d\nGod says in Jeremiah 29:11\n\u201cFor I know the plans I have for you,\u201d declares the Lord, \u201cplans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future\u201d\nGod says in Isaiah 43:2\nthe flames will not set you ablaze\u201d\nGod says in Isaiah 41:10\nI would suggest that you build a relationship with God, so that you do not miss out. When we build a good relationship with God, you can be rest assured that even death would not separate you from his love and his promises for you. Eternal life would be there for you to partake in. You would also enjoy this life to the fullest. There is nothing to lose.\nIf you wish to build a solid relationship with God, I would include below a lengthy and detailed suggestion on how you can do so. However, I find that many people get scared at the length of the suggestions. I want to say this, it is a step by step process, do not feel the need to execute it all in one day. Go at a pace that works for you and trust the process. Some people also get the impression that I am judging them or trying to tell them how to act or how to be, No! I do not want it to come across that way, because that is not my intention, I am simply giving friendly suggestions. Some people also get the impression that i am trying to say that if they do not do everything on my suggestion list that they would be doomed. I am not trying to say this. Also bear in mind, that although my suggestions seem lengthy, they would quickly become second nature to you. If you struggle with any of the steps, you can ask God for assistance and he would it make it easier for you.\nIf you are ready, here are my suggestions:\n1. Confession of faith: you need to find a quiet space. Imagine that Jesus is in front of you. Ask him for forgiveness of your past sins and the sins of your ancestors. Ask him to give you the strength to forgive those who have offended you. Honestly, I suggest that you forgive the people who have offended you, because whatever they did to you is now in the past, and upon a confession of Jesus as your Lord, you become a new creation. In addition, God commands that we need to forgive others, before he can forgive us. You can also get a deliverance before your confession of faith. Deliverance will rid you off any ungodly spirits that have taken residence in your body and mind. A pastor with a deliverance anointing should be able to help with this. There are also videos on YouTube, where pastors with a deliverance anointing pray directly for people through the videos. You just need to search \u201cdeliverance prayer\u201d in the search bar to reach these videos. Now, you need to tell Jesus that you want him to come and be your lord and personal savior, and surrender to him. You need to know that Jesus died for you. He died on the cross so that you may have a chance at salvation. The minute you give your life to Jesus, you need to know that you can no longer live as you wish, you shall live according to the stipulations in the bible. Believe in your heart that Jesus was risen up from the dead by God, and confess with your mouth that he is the messiah and your personal savior.\n2. Prayers: Women need to pray with their hair covered with a scarf or any piece of clothing, this does not apply to men. If you have any unforgiveness, bitterness, or anger in you, it is better to address it before prayer. You are better off coming to God on a clean slate. If you are struggling with dealing with these negative emotions, ask God to help you deal with them first, before proceeding to your actual prayer (a quick prayer asking God to help you with these emotions should be fine). Singing worship and praise songs before praying is useful, because it allows you to get into the prayer mood. Ask Jesus to bless you with eternal life. Tell him to make a place for you in his heavenly abode. You need to understand that praying for heaven is the best prayer that you can ever pray. Life on earth is so short, you need to be worried about eternal life, which is so much longer. God knows that you need clothes, food, shelter etc. He is your creator and he knows your every need. The bible tells us to pray for eternal life and God would provide our other needs (i.e. clothes, shelter etc.) according to his riches. If there is something bothering you, tell God in prayer, commit it to him and ask him to do it for you. However, bear in mind that this life is temporary and so are the things in this life. When you are praying, the devil will try to disrupt your prayers by bringing sudden disturbances such as sudden phone calls or loud noises and evil thoughts. An example of an evil thought that the devil tries to use to stop people from praying is by bringing the thought that Jesus is not present and that they are simply wasting their time. Jesus is there with you when you pray. So pray like you mean it. Pray the same way you will if Jesus was right in front of you because he is. You need to understand how prayers work as well. You see, when you pray, God answers prayers. God usually has three answers to prayers Yes, Yes but Wait, and No. God has a reason for every answer that he gives. He loves you and he will make sure that everything works out well for you in the end. When you get a No from God, sometimes it is not because that thing is not good for you at that point in time, but it may be because God is trying to draw your attention to something that you are doing wrong in your life. When you get a No from God, you need to evaluate yourself, what is the motive of your prayer? is it pure? Is it Godly? Is there an area of sin in your life that you need to work on? When you reflect on these things and you find something in yourself lacking, try to fix it. When God says Yes to prayers and sends you his blessings, trust me, there are spiritual forces of the devil in high places that work against people so that their blessings from God would not reach them. You need to pray against these spiritual forces. Rebuke them by the power and the name of Jesus. This way, your blessings would be able to reach you. Lastly, some people pray lazy prayers. For example, someone might pray for a job, without actually applying to any. God does not reward laziness. When you are praying for something, you need to be putting some work in as well. God rewards hard-work and we ought to strive to be hardworking. God\u2019s role is to direct, bless, and make your path clear. However, bear in mind that sometimes God answers even lazy prayers and gives us undeserved blessings, that shows you the power of his love. He would always be with you. You need to make sure that you are close to God in prayer. Do not cease to tell him about what you are struggling with. If you are struggling with sins of the flesh that you believe are hindering your spiritual growth, you need to make sure that you tell God. Make sure that you pray for an increment in faith. Faith is important, you need to have faith in God. When we pray, we need to have faith, God does not like it when we doubt his ability to provide us with what we want, he is mighty and nothing is impossible with him. When you are low in faith, pray to God for an increment in faith. Remember to pray for your family, your city, your country and the world in fact, no prayers are too big for God. Pray that unsaved people would be saved. Pray for your non-Christian family members, pray that they see the light and become saved. When you pray, make sure that you take care of sins. The bible says that we need to forgive others if we want our sins to be forgiven. Make sure you forgive others, ask for forgiveness of your sins first before praying. Sins can block your prayers from getting to God. Try to avoid sin, but pray for forgiveness of sins everyday, because sometimes, we are not aware of the sins that we are committing. When you get answers to your prayers, remember to thank God.\n3. The Bible: You need to make sure that you are reading the bible and that you are obeying it. I suggest you begin with the New Testament because the coming of Jesus changed many of the things that were practiced before. However, bear in mind that the old testament is also important. You can find free bible apps on google play. You can also find free bibles online. The New Living Translation is an easy to read bible version. However, the most popular one is the King James Version.\n4. Hearing from God: Trust me, God would speak to you. He would speak to you through dreams. Through people, through situations, through the bible and so much more. You need to practice and perfect the art of hearing God\u2019s voice. Dreams contain a lot of symbolism. When you possess an avid knowledge of what the bible says, you would understand the biblical meaning of all the symbols in your dreams. However, for now, you can search online bible dream dictionaries for the meaning of things you see in your dream. You also need to know that although there are general meanings for some symbols, some interpretations are based on context. Take context into account. God does communicate via dreams. Sometimes, you might be asking God for direction on something. Pay attention to the words all around you during this time i.e, the things people say, words you see when reading the bible etc. Sometimes you might even just turn on your TV and the TV anchor would say something that directly relates to what you are going through. Pay attention to these things. You would know it is God\u2019s voice when whatever is said is not in contradiction to the bible and God\u2019s nature. If it is in contradiction then it might just be something random that popped up. You can also hear God\u2019s voice by meditating on him. You can do this by finding a quiet space, you can play some background Christian music if you want. During this time, close your eyes and focus on God. Do some praise and worship in your heart first, then invite Jesus to come to you. Ask a question and pay attention to any bible verses that are brought to your mind, inner voices that you hear, any general feelings etc. If what is said is in line with the bible, then it is probably God speaking. It might take several weeks before you begin to hear God via meditation. If you keep trying one method and it does not work, try another method, like paying attention to the words around you. As you practice the art of listening and hearing, God might give you the gift of seeing visions or the gift of hearing an inner voice, and take you to deeper depths of hearing.\n5. Fasting: fasting is an effective way to get God\u2019s attention. Fasting is a way to spend time with him. You deprive yourself of food because what you seek for is more than food. There are different types of fasting, and you need to plan what works for you. There is the:\nA. Avoidance fasting: This is a fasting form where you avoid something that you cannot do without i.e. Coffee.\nB. Daniel\u2019s fast: In this sort of fasting, you only eat fruit and vegetables and drink water. You do not eat anything cooked or anything other than fruits and vegetables.\nC. Water fast: In this sort of fasting, you do not eat anything, you only drink water. No food, just water.\nD. Total fast: In this sort of fasting, you do not eat or drink anything. You do not drink even water.\nMake sure that you work out what works for you. You can pray to God for directions on the timing of the fasting to follow. However, as a general time-frame, on fasting days, many Christians fast from 6am to 6pm. Many Christians also use those moments when they feel hungry/ feel cravings as prompts to pray. You need to have increased prayers during fasting periods.\n6. Temptations: When you believe in Jesus. Trust me, the devil sometimes would throw trials and tribulations into your life, the goal of this is to get you to denounce your faith. The goal is to frustrate you. You need to pray and fast when trials and tribulations strike. God would never leave you or forsake you. He would be with you and with God, you will overcome this if it ever happens.\n7. Spreading the gospel: Now that you know the truth, you are chosen. It is now your duty to share the truth in the bible with others. Make sure that you save people from falling prey to Satan\u2019s tactics. You need to join the fight to depopulate the devil\u2019s camp, while populating God\u2019s kingdom. With spreading the gospel, do not feel the need to finish reading the whole bible before you begin. You can teach people the little you know.\n8. Read: There is a lot of material out there. There are ministers of God who have practiced for about 40 years. These people have a lot of stories about their ministry. Some of them have the gift to heal others, others see visions, some of them hear God\u2019s voice. Many of these people have written books about how they accomplished what they have accomplished, and how they got their gift. Buy these books and read them. If you do not have money, some of these ministers have shared their stories for free on YouTube, take advantage of that.\n9: Reform yourself: begin to watch Christian movies and listen to Christian music. Make sure that your thoughts, actions, and words are in obedience to the word of God. Make sure that you are not doing anything sinful in your thoughts, actions or words. Refine your world, the space around you, the things you see and hear, make it all about God. You can also join a community of bible believing Christians. However, I need to tell you that there is sectarianism in the religion. Do not pay attention to sectarianism, pay attention to the bible. The bible is your authority. If a church seems to have too much sectarianism issue going on, if they are more focused on promoting their denomination than promoting God and the word in his bible, you need to stop going there. Get a water baptism, and pray so that God would baptize you in the holy spirit.\n(I know I have written this list in the order of 1 to 9. It is crucial that you begin with Step 1. Prayers are something that you need to do constantly, so is bible study, hearing from God and reforming yourself. However, you can start small with fasting and spreading the gospel. You can start by preaching to your family members in the beginning phase of spreading the gospel, but you need to expand on these over time. I know this list seems long and all these seem deep, but trust me, you would blend into it so easily and it would become second nature to you. Pray to God to make all of these easy for you, and he will. The devil would try to trick you into believing that God\u2019s standards are too high and that you would never overcome sin, when in actuality, you can. So therefore, pray to God and believe and he would help you overcome sin).\nIf you ever backslide and fall back into sin again while trying to follow God\u2019s word. You need to ask him to forgive you and try to get back on track. You should also ask him to strengthen you, so that you can have more strength in withstanding and blocking off sin. God would hear your prayer and he would send help according to his will.\nIf you have any questions, feel free to let me know. If you need to talk, I am here for you. God bless you. Have a blessed day \ud83d\ude42\njamiebrooke12 on November 8, 2018 at 2:34 pm said:\nHayden Chamberlen on November 9, 2018 at 10:56 am said:\nArcaya on November 25, 2018 at 5:32 pm said:\nI\u2019ve only just read the sad news.

        "raw_content": "The Law of Attraction is a great way to start to accomplish your dreams and make your potential successes come true. However, it is possible to overdo it when first getting involved with the Law of Attraction. Many people think that they can simply will their achievements into existence, but it isn\u2019t that easy. You must take a methodical, reasonable approach when using the Law of Attraction to help yourself become successful.\nA very common mistake that people make with the Law of Attraction is that of thinking too big. Yes, it is important to remain positive and believe that you succeed in anything you put your mind to, but you shouldn\u2019t set yourself up for failure. If you\u2019ve never played the piano before, you\u2019re not going to be writing a symphony within a week. You need to set reasonable expectations and put yourself on a schedule that will help you to learn to do the things you are setting out to do. Use positive thinking as a way to encourage yourself to keep trying to achieve the things that you dream of. However, don\u2019t tell yourself that you\u2019ll be a millionaire in the next few years. Instead, tell yourself that you\u2019ll be gaining the skills and abilities required to be successful.\nStubbornness is another common mistake when it comes to the Law of Attraction. Just because you tell yourself that you\u2019re going to be successful doesn\u2019t mean that it\u2019s going to happen in the exact way that you are expecting. Don\u2019t get down on yourself or become frustrated when things don\u2019t go your way. Every failure is a learning experience. The Law of Attraction doesn\u2019t guarantee that you\u2019ll never fail, but what it does do is prepare you to be more able to handle these failures and turn them into successes. Rigidity is a negative trait, so make sure to shed that philosophy if you plan on using the Law of Attraction to make your life better.\nMany people jump into the Law of Attraction with unrealistic goals. As we\u2019ve mentioned, it\u2019s important to keep your head on straight and set realistic expectations. You don\u2019t want to lie to yourself by using the Law of Attraction. If you haven\u2019t yet become a great musician, you don\u2019t want to tell yourself \u201cI\u2019m a great a musician.\u201d Rather, you want to harness positive energy and tell yourself \u201cI\u2019m on my way to becoming a great musician\u201d or \u201cThis learning process is a positive and beneficial experience.\u201d The Law of Attraction isn\u2019t about making things up. Rather, it\u2019s about letting yourself know that there is a process in place and that you are capable of carrying it out. Don\u2019t try to break the laws of physics or biology \u2013 simply try to give yourself the tools necessary to help you achieve your goals and become independently successful.\n\u2190 5 Ways to Add More Fiber to Your Diet\nWhat\u2019s the big deal with antioxidants? \u2192",

        "raw_content": "March 14, 2016 From The Economist Events: Pride and Prejudice By Matthew Bishop and Bee Vang In Politics of inclusion\n1) Why is the business case for LGBT diversity and inclusion important?\nThe business case at the CIA. for diversity and inclusion really speaks to the nature of our mission which is to understand the world in all its complexities, all of its diversities. And if we don\u2019t have people who have some experience with that diversity, with that range of backgrounds and cultures and ethnicities, we are depriving ourselves of having the ability to learn what\u2019s going on around the world. So, there is a very, very strong case for diversity and inclusion at the agency in order for us to succeed in our mission.\n2) What is LGBT inclusion going to look like in 5 years?\nI think we have seen tremendous growth over the last decade and two in terms of LGBT rights, opportunities and advancements. And I can only see the trajectory increasing in the coming decades. It is now widely accepted that LGBT individuals are as much a part of our society, have as much to contribute as anybody else. And so I think more and more people are going to be seeing this in different parts of the country and the world, where there is still reservation about welcoming those LGBT individuals. And I do believe that there is going to be increasing growth of opportunity in the future.\n3) Where do you think the conversation on the business case for LGBT inclusion will be in one year from now? And what will the main issues at stake be? Will they be the same ones?\nThe conversation on the benefits of LGBT in the broader economy and society, I think, will gain some increased focus and attention in terms of where within our countries, our economies, is the LGBT opportunity not found and as not as advanced as it needs to be. And so I would like to see the conversations become more specific. Yes, there is general appreciation and general acceptance. But there are still pockets of resistance out there. And I think we need to tackle that. And that\u2019s where I think the conversation deserves to go because, again, we are depriving ourselves as a society in terms of allowing LGBT people to have as much opportunity as others across the broad range of economic, cultural, and social opportunities.\n4) What will be the biggest challenges facing business related to LGBT equality?\nThe biggest challenge for businesses in terms of LGBT equality over the coming years will be their ability to tap into those reservoirs that are out there. They need to make sure that they have an outreach program and that they\u2019re not just sitting back and waiting for the LGBT community to come to them because I think there is going to be increased competition to make sure that individual companies are able to demonstrate that they are inclusive, they are welcoming, they are diverse. And so, the companies that are not going to be looking to advance their LGBT environment are ones that are going to be left behind. And so I think that individual companies and individual sectors will face challenges if they are not very proactive and not engaged in this effort.\n5) Why is this discussion on LGBT inclusion important for leaders to be a part of?\nI think leaders of companies in the private sector, leaders of governmental departments and agencies, need to demonstrate through their actions, not just their words, but their actions, that they are committed to it. It\u2019s very easy to give lip service to a variety of causes, but unless you are involved you\u2019re not going to first of all understand the obstacles, the challenges, as well as the opportunities. And also you\u2019re not going to role model what it is you want your organization to do. If you become involved, if you are active, then people in the organization are going to say, \u201cShe or he is really serious about this, and we really need to get on board!\u201d But it\u2019s something that requires engagement, as well as consistency as far as involvement. You can\u2019t just do it episodically. It is something that has to be a part of the discussion with your workforce, your marketing of your company\u2019s products and services. You need to make sure that diversity and inclusion have become a part of the definition of who you are and who the company is.\n6) What has been the impact of the CIA\u2019s stance on LGBT inclusion and how has it affected recruitment and retention?\nOver the last 35 years, and that is the span of time that I\u2019ve had experience in CIA, we\u2019ve really come so far, as far as first of all acknowledging that there are LGBT members within the CIA family. But also welcoming them in. And what we see now is that in our recruiting efforts \u2013 given the fact that we\u2019ve highlighted the progress that we\u2019ve made, and we\u2019ve reached out, and we have had booths at various gay pride events \u2013 I think people have come to recognize that the CIA is one of the leading departments and agencies within the US government. So it has allowed us to attract more and more individuals. I take great comfort in knowing that CIA employees in their day to day lives and work at the agency highlight the fact that there are lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender. I wear my lanyard at the agency, which is a LGBT lanyard, because I want to make sure that people feel comfortable being out in the agency. It\u2019s critically important. And this is something that the word has gotten out about, outside of the agency, to other government agencies and to the private sector, and also university campuses. And I want to continue highlighting this.\n7) What has been the overall effectiveness of implementing LGBT friendly policies?\nI think we\u2019ve been very effective in implementing LGBT policies at the agency by demonstrating again through our words and actions what it is that we are committed to do. And I have found that the LGBT members within the agency are able to take greater pride. And when they take greater pride, and when they feel greater confidence and comfort, they are happier employees. And they don\u2019t have to be worried about who\u2019s going to find out about me, am I going to lose my security clearance? They have new confidence that they are full-fledged members of the agency and accepted by the institution. If you have that among that segment of the population, not only are they going to be happier, they\u2019re going to be more productive and effective intelligence officers.\n8) What role does LGBT inclusion play in intelligence and national security?\nLGBT gives us the understanding that this world is a rich and diverse environment in all sorts of different ways. It\u2019s not just ethnic backgrounds, or cultural, or religious. It is in fact how we act as individuals, what is it that motivates individuals around the globe. And let\u2019s face it, sexual preference is something that is very, very important to individuals. They want to make sure that they\u2019re able to pursue their personal lives, as well as their professional lives. That, I think, helps the CIA understand the factors and conditions that exist within countries. If there is a suppressive environment for LGBTs, there is likely a suppressive environment for other members of that society and what is that doing in terms of undercutting the fabric of those societies that could lead to political problems and instability, whatever. So I think what we need to do is to look at LGBT not just from the standpoint of how we can take advantage of it from the standpoint of our workforce, making it richer, but also what is it about the phenomenon of LGBT around the world that helps give us some insights into how these societies, how these countries, how these governments, are evolving or not, how they are adapting to the 21st century or not, and what does that mean to US national security interests.\n9) Is there anything else we should know about the CIA and its LGBT policies?\nThe CIA is a very important organization for this country\u2019s national security, indeed for global stability. We\u2019ve played a very, very important role over the last 68 years. Doesn\u2019t mean we haven\u2019t made mistakes. We have. And we\u2019ve learned from many of the mistakes we\u2019ve made. But one of the very important things for us is to make sure we are able to fulfill our responsibilities consistent with the law. And one of the things I want to make sure of is that the agency is able to tap into the richness of the United States, of our citizens, from all 50 states and territories. And I want everybody to know that if you\u2019re part of that LGBT community you have a potential home, a potential professional career, and a potential family that is looking forward to welcoming you to be part of a great organization.\n10) What hurdles did the CIA have to overcome to get management to pay attention to the importance of LGBT inclusion?\nI think over the past decade, two decades, the CIA. directors have always supported the rights and interests of the LGBT community. But as you know over the last two decades, this country has had many, many national security challenges in terms of attacks that have taken place on the homeland. The CIA has been very mission-oriented. And some of the obstacles have been that in addition to taking care of all those crises around the world, and ensuring that we carry out all of our mission responsibilities, that we continue to look at what it is that we need to do in terms of developing our workforce and making sure that we are attracting people into the agency. This is going to sustain our efforts over time. One of the things I want to do is to make sure that we don\u2019t disadvantage our future by only focusing on the crises of the day. We need to do that while at the same time taking care of the institutional requirements. And our primary requirement is to make sure that we get the best people in the agency because our most precious resource, our most precious asset, is our people.",

        "raw_content": "Over the last 20 years, I have organized and participated in rallies in support of women\u2019s reproductive rights. As a Catholic woman, I have tried to explain my strong support of reproductive freedom by telling the stories of women I know and love. With the new Republican anti-choice majority, abortion-rights supporters must prepare for one of their toughest battles. It\u2019s imperative that the pro-choice movement reeducate and empower the masses to go on the political offense.\nFrances Kissling, the well-known and respected leader of Catholics for a Free Choice, recently sent me an interesting letter in which she shared her thoughts on the fight to save Roe v. Wade. Kissling, like other pro-choice advocates, is right to proactively frame the political debate \u2014 redefining the frayed strategies of our movement and devising a long-term vision of what reproductive freedom means for all Americans.\nKissling needs the support of pro-choice leaders to initiate this important national dialogue on the accessibility to a full range of reproductive-health services in a way that captivates the majority of Americans \u2014 especially those in support of reproductive rights.\nMost Americans continue to believe that abortion is a matter of privacy. But with impending legislative and court battles, this message must be articulated in a way that will resonate with the greater masses.\nThe Bush administration has played politics with women\u2019s lives, from reimposing the global gag rule to seeking medical records of women who have sought reproductive- health services. They have been successful in packing the federal courts with anti-choice judges and they will try to do the same in the Supreme Court when there is a vacancy.\nWith more vocal conservatives now in firm control of Congress, brave Democrats will begin to work with the anti-choice majority to seek some middle ground. Before this occurs, we must proactively stake our claim to the principle of freedom, and hold firm to our values. We must define the issues this time, instead of remaining on the defensive. We must control the dialogue and message.\nThe language used in defending our support of abortion rights makes some pro-choice supporters uncomfortable in discussing the issue. I know why many of these lawmakers have become weary.\nAs a black woman and abortion-rights activist (and former board member of Voters for Choice), I have found myself standing alone in church looking for ways to bridge the informational and cultural divide. Leaders of the reproductive- rights movement must work with civil rights leaders to help educate all Americans before it\u2019s too late. Now that the right-wing extremists have entered our houses of worship, at the invitation of several black clergy, we must speak up.\nReproductive rights, as embraced by many black women leaders, means \u201cthe right to the full range of contraceptive services and appropriate information about reproduction.\u201d It means the right to \u201cchoose not to have a child or the right to choose to have a child.\u201d The bottom line is we believe in the right to reproductive health and to make our own reproductive choices. This is something our parents and grandparents understood because they did not control their own bodies.\nThe best way to stop the religious right from moving into our pulpits and pushing their agenda to restrict and overturn abortion rights (as well as civil rights) is for women leaders to work more aggressively in defining our values and speaking with conviction on matters involving our own bodies.\nFor starters, it\u2019s time we retell our stories. One of my friends in Oregon recently wrote me a letter in which he recalled growing up in a small town in the days of back-alley doctors and coat hangers. Billy wrote about the women who died and those who were scarred for life. \u201cI never want to see women treated like that again,\u201d he said.\nBilly is right. No one wants to go back, but unless we tell our stories now, the enemies of choice will continue to \u201cown the story\u201d that is being told to the American people. We can win the battle over words.\nWe can win the battle for the courts. We can win the heart and soul of the American people on the issue of reproductive freedom. All of this can be accomplished in a manner that will not allow our message to be misinterpreted and construed by anti-choice extremists as further evidence in support of their unwavering position. Let\u2019s renew our commitment to fight and, this time, to win for the majority.\nDonna Brazile is chair of the Democratic National Committee\u2019s Voting Rights Institute, an adjunct professor at Georgetown University and author of Cooking with Grease: Stirring the Pots in American Politics (Simon & Schuster, 2004).",

        "title": "Why CRE will look totally different in 5 years | ProNet",
        "raw_content": "December 4, 2017By Jon SilbermanCRE Technology\nThankfully, we don\u2019t have to talk anymore about how the commercial real estate industry doesn\u2019t use technology. That conversation is officially over. And now that CRE has adopted technology, we\u2019re in the midst of a massive change.\nThe CRE industry will look completely different in the next five years, and there are a few key factors leading to that transformation.\nA new approach to data\nFor brokers starting out in the business, entering the game means finding a niche and learning everything about it. However, in this process, brokers become protective of the data they\u2019ve worked to gather. Some may even believe it\u2019s what makes them good at what they do. This data philosophy has prohibited a true CRE tech ecosystem from taking shape, because it silos data and keeps programs from connecting effectively.\nBut today, there are new approaches to data. Brokers are realizing that their expertise isn\u2019t what they know, but how they use their knowledge to detect patterns and build connections. As the CRE data philosophy continues to evolve and data becomes even more accessible, new tech will be easier to implement and connect.\nThe story has never been that CRE professionals didn\u2019t like to use technology. The problem was that the options available weren\u2019t actually making them any money. Now, brokers and marketers are actually implementing useful software, and with the help of better access to data, applications can integrate with one another to amplify each other\u2019s impact.\nAdoption of outside tech\nThe CRE industry is relatively small compared to other industries, even residential real estate. You can see this at an NAR conference, where residential takes up 90 percent of the exhibition floor and commercial makes up the rest. Tech investment in real estate has followed a similar pattern\u2013\u2013residential has received 90 percent of investment and commercial has gotten the leftovers.\nNow, the CRE tech ecosystem is expanding with help from outside the industry. Between 2000 and 2015, other industries started using cloud computing and software with better user interface and integration. As this tech was rapidly developed, it became less expensive and more effective. As a result, tech companies have been able to more easily develop solutions that provide a real return on investment to CRE professionals.\nBut the tools truly disrupting CRE aren\u2019t limited to the tools already in use in other industries. Technology once seen as science fiction like virtual reality, artificial intelligence, driverless cars and the Internet of Things are all making a real impact in CRE.\nIt\u2019s no secret that the CRE industry is made up mostly of Baby Boomers. That generation is on the way to retirement, reducing the number of brokers in the industry to do the work. But as CRE adopts more advanced technology, the younger brokers will be able to pick up the slack. For the Boomers who still have working years left, the industry will only become more efficient and competitive. To keep up, they\u2019ll need to embrace technology now or be left behind.\nAs CRE tech advances, there\u2019s typically a concern of disintermediation, or brokers becoming obsolete. However, this is unfounded. For instance, when LoopNet took off in the late 90s, many thought the web-based marketplace to share listings would run brokers out of their jobs. As we now know, it didn\u2019t, but the same needless conversation continues about each new tech advancement, whether it\u2019s AI, VR or whatever comes after.\nInstead of worrying about being pushed out of a job, think about how you can use new tools to be even better at your job.

        "raw_content": "Anti-Americanism By Jean-Fran\u00e7ois Revel, translated from the French by Diarmid Cammell, Encounter Books, 280 pages, $25.95\nOn Paradise Drive: How We Live Now (And Always Have) in the\nFuture Tense By David Brooks, Simon and Schuster, 352 pages, $25.00\nJean-Fran\u00e7ois-Revel, author of the best-selling Without Marx or Jesus, wrote Anti-Americanism to respond to the sentiment, fairly widespread in Europe, that the United States has become a force for evil. I admire him for taking on the challenge. The United States, to be sure, does things in ways that Europeans ought to criticize, from our reliance on the death penalty to our love affair with handguns to the failure of George W. Bush to win international support for the war in Iraq. But the contrarian in me wants Revel to succeed. Even when European critics of the United States are right, there is often an air of superiority in their tone that betrays the fact that their societies are not quite as flawless as their criticisms of ours imply.\nTo take one conspicuous example, the United States has not done a very good job with racial discrimination, but we do have a relatively good record when it comes to religious tolerance. France does not. A revival of anti-Semitism, the government's bungling of the head-scarf issue, and the popularity of the xenophobic politician Jean-Marie Le Pen all suggest that the French might have something to learn from the American experience. Yet when they discuss this issue, intellectuals in France invariably conclude that the United States is rife with religious bigotry and governed by faith-based fanaticism, despite the fact that our Le Pen, Patrick Buchanan, has been a failure, both major parties in the United States compete for the Muslim vote, and anti-Semitism and anti-Catholicism are no longer respectable positions in public life.\nAlthough he has a case that needs making, Revel chose instead to publish an intemperate and one-sided screed. For example, he takes issue with a French writer named Jean-Marc Adolphe, who claims in the newspaper Lib\u00e9ration that in the United States, \"only the most fortunate have the right to medical care and grow old with dignity.\" The author, Revel writes, implies that the United States has no publicly funded retirement scheme, when everyone knows that it does. Adolphe also suggests, according to Revel, that Europeans do better than Americans when it comes to medical coverage, but nearly 10 percent of the French were not covered under their public provisions. Besides, Revel concludes (wrongly), both France and the United States spend roughly the same proportion of their gross domestic product on medical care. For Revel, Adolphe's rather mild comment represents a \"small set of platitudes that reveal an ignorance of the subject so crude one can only hope it's intentional.\"\nThis example is typical of nearly all the ones cited by Revel, and it indicates why his book is so weak. Nothing in Adolphe's statement suggests an ignorance of the fact that the United States has a system of social security. He makes no comparison to France. The French, in any case, when they realized that some had no access to medical care, created the CMU (Couverture Maladie Universelle) to address the problem, whereas the number of uninsured in the United States has been rising. And spending on medical care includes, on the American side, funds for drug-company profits and hospital construction that may not have much to do with wellness. Revel claims at many points in his book that the United States should not be immune from criticism, but, as this example shows, he then attacks as treachery nearly all the criticisms of the United States made by Europeans.\nRevel loves America, but the America he loves is the ideologically self-certain commentary of FOX News. European critics of America, he claims, are \"dupes\" whose willingness to accept the great lie of American arrogance \"evokes the equivalent lie that surrounded the Soviet Union ever since 1917.\" They serve the cause of terrorism by refusing to recognize the degree to which the United States serves as the best protection against it. \"Anti-Americanism is at base a totalizing, if not a totalitarian, vision,\" Revel writes in conclusion, in case anyone missed his point about earlier generations of fellow travelers. Yet it is Revel, as his choice of language suggests, who seems trapped in the atmosphere of charge and countercharge that characterized the Cold War. He is Jean-Paul Sartre in reverse, evoking the Popular Front politics of good versus evil by citing the good intentions of the hoped-for land of redemption while ignoring or explaining away its bad faith.\nThe case for America that Revel does not make is made by David Brooks. It is not that Brooks is an apologist for his country; he identifies with the social criticism of 1950s nonfiction writers such as David Riesman and William H. Whyte, and his new book, On Paradise Drive, is filled with troubling accounts of what life is like in the United States today. Yet Brooks tries to look beyond the unseemly and the ugly to find a deeper truth in the American experience, and, by and large, he succeeds.\nOn Paradise Drive is not about the poor. Here you will not find people struggling without health insurance. That makes Brooks' analysis unrepresentative of all life in the United States, but it also plays to the author's strengths. In his previous book, Bobos in Paradise, Brooks called his method \"comic sociology,\" which can be defined, roughly, as mocking rather than muckraking, an attempt to characterize our penchant for the outlandish by poking fun at our foibles. However appropriate for yuppies, comic sociology is out of place where tragedy rules.\nMiddle- and upper-middle-class Americans, as Brooks portrays them, are given to frenzy over work, shopping, learning, and playing. As children, their parents do not merely love them to death; they expose them to norms of achievement that begin when they are in the womb and carry forward through breast-feeding technologies, preschool activities, Little League games, and high-school choices. Once in high school, these \"Junior Workaholics of America\" commit to inner-city volunteering and honors electives in ways designed to impress even the most cynical college-admissions staffs. At top-flight institutions such as Princeton, undergraduates are \"articulate on every subject save morality,\" as able to discuss terrorism in Uzbekistan as they are unwilling to pass judgment on promiscuity. Once he graduates, Brooks' Ivy League achiever spends uncountable hours on his job, all the while \"communing with his fellow IT junkies about the CRM solutions on his mobile and how many WAP gateways he can access from his ISP.\" And with the money he earns, he buys fantasies, kitchen gadgets from Crate and Barrel for the luxurious dinner parties he has planned or power tools to transform the porch into a multiplex viewing room.\nWhen he describes well-off Americans, Brooks, comic sociology aside, can get pretty brutal. Glossy magazines like Shape and Victorian Home \"slather endless amounts of missionary zeal on apparently trivial subjects ... .\" Executive advancement seminars lead him to conclude that \"there is no management fad so stupid that you can't get some senior executive to buy in to it.\" Because their country is so powerful, Americans \"have to act on the world stage,\" but the rest of the world \"is a place that doesn't interest most of them.\"\nFor all his criticism, however, Brooks believes that \"there is an exalted dream of democratic greatness buried at the core of our achievement ethos.\" If that comment seems to evoke Walt Whitman, Brooks then brings him into the discussion, as well St. John de Crevecoeur, Alexander Hamilton, Daniel Webster, and others who praised America for its near demonic energy and excitement. \"It is often the hungriest, the uncultivated, the most grasping people who lead the way into the future,\" Brooks writes of our 19th-century gold rushers -- and of our 20th-century computer geeks. We live on Paradise Drive because, as crass and materialistic as we can be, we have as well a sense of utopian possibility.\nOn Paradise Drive can be read as the domestic portion of the call for national greatness that Brooks has been advocating for American foreign policy. If we are to project our power abroad, we had better stand for something at home. Brooks recognizes, as many other conservatives do not, that if you portray the home front as decadent and flabby, the trumpet will sound pretty uncertain when the trumpet sounds at all. Yet Brooks also understands that whitewash will not work; America cannot be grasped unless its huge flaws are noticed along with its powerful strengths. And so he finds poetry in the prosaic. \"Even in those boring office parks,\" he writes, \"even among those narrow workaholics who have never had a philosophical self-reflection in their lives, the successful ones are driven by some inner intensity. They must improve, perpetually grow.\"\nAmerican liberals should be as willing to find some good in their country as a conservative like David Brooks. Walt Whitman, let us recall, is one of the great democratic voices of our culture, a poet who inspired his countrymen to live up to the \"vistas\" promised by their ideals. A great society presupposes a great country; if we are ever to make our health care universal or our foreign policy humanitarian, we need to think of ourselves as more than insatiable consumers or narcissistic forest destroyers. Social criticism ought to criticize, but a society worth criticizing is generally a society worth appreciating. Brooks does not always find the right balance -- Americans stress achievement too much for themselves and too little for others -- but he is making the effort, and for that he deserves at least two cheers.\nAlan Wolfe is the director of the Boisi Center for Religion and American Public Life at Boston College and is writing a book on why liberalism matters.\nArticles By Alan Wolfe\nRSS feed of articles by Alan Wolfe\nDemocratic D\u00e9tente\nHow Nancy Pelosi Took Control\nWise After All\nWhat Do Mothers Want?\nFreedom's New Fight\nAll the President's Handouts\nHauteur Theory\nSilence of the Flock\nMission Semi-Accomplished",

        "raw_content": "October 2018 | In Review\nOn November 2, 2018 By Daniel PeraltaIn Uncategorized5 Comments\nThis month has been wild! My most anticipated book released, and new, great things in my life are happening! What a great month!\nHangsaman by Shirley Jackson: (218 Pages) I love Shirley Jackson, and while I found this to have some likable quotes in it, I was very disappointed to find that I didn\u2019t particularly like this work as a whole. 3 out of 5\nRed Rising by Pierce Brown: (416 Pages)\nThe Adventure\u2019s of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain: (224 Pages) I had to read this for a class, and let\u2019s just say I didn\u2019t enjoy it too much.\nWhat if It\u2019s Us by Becky Albertalli & Adam Silvera: (448 Pages) While I had a couple issues with this one, overall, it was a good time. 4 out of 5\nAll I\u2019m saying is that this book is a a monster, and I\u2019m enjoying every second of it.\nI feel like I\u2019ve been particularly absent this past week or two, as I\u2019ve been trying to avoid ANYTHING to do with Kingdom of Ash, but I will try to be more adamant on your blogs soon.\nWhat was your favorite read this month? Let\u2019s talk in the comments below!\nWHAT IF IT\u2019S US by Becky Albertalli & Adam Silvera (Review)\nI pre-ordered this one a week before it released, and I was really looking forward to it!\nI\u2019m going to be straight out, I\u2019ve never read anything by either of these authors (I know\u2026). But here are some of my (probably unpopular) opinions about it.\nI had multiple issues with this one, that I can\u2019t seem to get past.\nI want to state, firstly, that I really enjoyed the characters, Ben and Arthur, and I was really rooting for them throughout the way (but let\u2019s face it, Dylan was my favorite).\nBut the issues that struck me from completely loving this one were:\nI just re-read the synopsis, and I felt like I just read the first 300 pages of this book.I don\u2019t think it goes without saying, because it says it in the description above, but Ben and Arthur go on a mad hunt for each other, they find each other, and then have complications. That\u2019s a good 300 to 350 pages of the book. I feel like it\u2019s like those movies where the trailer spoils everything. There was never anything that kept me really on the edge or completely shocked.\nPop culture referencesWhile a couple are fine, I felt that there seemed to be some sort of recent pop-culture reference on every page, which makes me believe this book is going to date horribly. One or two are fine, but when it\u2019s constant, I just don\u2019t feel it.\nThe things that gave this one bonus points, in my mind however, were it\u2019s use of language. I feel Albertalli and Silvera really captured how teens talk today and how harshly they react to things, which is refreshing.\nIn the end, I really enjoyed this one, but there were just a couple things described above that really frustrated me and what I believe kept this review from being a solid five. I believe my overall experience with a book (enjoyment wise) is a huge factor for my end rating, however. And, like I said, in the end, I enjoyed this one, and that\u2019s one of the main, huge factors, from tipping this to a 3 star, I believe.\nIf you\u2019re looking for a light, cute, funny read, I would definitely pick this one up.\nHave you read What If It\u2019s Us? What did you think? How did it compare to Albertalli\u2019s and Silvera\u2019s previous works? Let\u2019s talk in the comments!\nJuly has been such a great month! Here are the highlights!\nStorm Front by Jim Butcher: (352 Pages) This was an okay read. I didn\u2019t love it, but I didn\u2019t hate it. 3 out of 5\nHolding Up the Universe by Jennifer Niven: (388 Pages) I had soooo many issues with this read. It was, honestly, just plain offensive. 1 out of 5\nSurviving Adam Meade by Shannon Klare: (256 Pages) I haven\u2019t made the official announcement yet, but I am a part of the blog tour for this read! I will post details soon!\nNevernight by Jay Kristoff: (427 Pages) I didn\u2019t have many expectations when going into this, but it is easily the favorite of the month. 5 out of 5!\nThe Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger: (240 Pages) This was a buddy read with Sara!\nThe Color of Bee Larkham\u2019s Murder by Sarah J. Harris: (368 Pages) I felt the story in this was a little overshadowed by the focus on the MC, however I felt the MC was brilliantly crafted. 3 out of 5\nThe Pawn by Skye Warren: Maybe there was a reason this was free? But, this just wasn\u2019t for me and I had to stop about 20% in. Check out Sara\u2019s review, here! I think it pretty well sums everything up.\nOne of my amazing friends, Nora, visited and was so lovely to dedicate a whole day to hanging out with me! I got to canoe for the first time, and while half the time was yelling at each other and running into moths, I still had a blast!\nFront Row for the Hunchback of Notre Dame:\nI was fortunate enough to sit front row for an amazing community production of The Hunchback of Notre Dame. Like\u2026guys, this was professional quality, and I\u2019m still thinking about it. I was stunned. It was so, so, so amazing.",

        "raw_content": "FACT CHECK: Refereeing the Republican response\nIndiana Gov. Mitch Daniels\nFACT CHECK: The state of Obama\u2019s facts\nWe concentrated our fact-checking efforts on the main attraction last night \u2014 the president\u2019s State of the Union address \u2014 but we also found factual fouls in the Republican response from Indiana Gov. Mitch Daniels.\nDaniels took a swipe at President Obama for dictating which light bulbs Americans should use \u2014 but it was President George W. Bush who signed the legislation in question into law. And he used a misleading statistic in talking about the country\u2019s unemployment situation.\nLight Bulb Legislation\nDaniels said that Obama was interfering with Americans\u2019 lives, from health care down to their home lighting choices:\nDaniels, Jan. 24: \u201cIn word and deed, the president and his allies tell us that we just cannot handle ourselves in this complex, perilous world without their benevolent protection. Left to ourselves, we might pick the wrong health insurance, the wrong mortgage, the wrong school for our kids; why, unless they stop us, we might pick the wrong light bulb!\u201d\nBut the light bulb remark is aimed at the wrong target. The law phasing out traditional incandescent bulbs, in favor of more energy efficient ones, was passed by Congress on Dec. 18, 2007, and signed by Bush the following day. The law\u2019s requirements on light bulbs were set to take effect this month, but new legislation, signed by Obama in December, delays enforcement of the regulations. Manufacturers and importers were to provide bulbs that emit as much light as a 100-watt bulb but use only 72 watts. The 75-watt bulb was to meet the law\u2019s efficiency standards in 2013; and the 60- and 40-watt bulbs were next, in 2014.\nInstead of the traditional bulbs, consumers will have to buy LEDs, halogen incandescent or compact fluorescent bulbs, all of which are more expensive \u2014 but, says the Department of Energy, will save consumers money over time because they use less energy and last longer.\nBut the light bulb law was enacted under Bush, not Obama. And it passed Congress with widespread support in 2007. The final vote in the Senate was 86 to 8, and it was 314 to 100 in the House.\nLast year, however, the requirements became a lightning rod, so to speak, for Republicans who said it was federal government intrusion into basic consumer decisions. The spending bill that Obama signed in December included a provision blocking the Energy Department from enforcing the regulations. But manufacturers, who had already converted factories to churn out the energy-saving bulbs, support the requirements.\nMisleading Jobs Stat\nDaniels also rattled off some depressing statistics on employment, saying that \u201cnearly half of all persons under 30, did not go to work today.\u201d Technically, it\u2019s 45 percent of the total population of those age 16 to 29 who were not working, as of December. But those figures include 16- to 19-year-olds, many of whom are not part of the labor force and may not be even looking for employment.\nThe Bureau of Labor Statistics data show that the 16 to 19 population was 16.7 million, of which only 4.2 million were employed last month. That\u2019s a total employment rate of only 25 percent. But BLS only counts 5.4 million of those teenagers as being part of the labor force \u2014 that is, those who are actively seeking employment or are employed. True, some may have given up looking for work, but a good percentage of kids at that age aren\u2019t regularly employed, or regularly looking for employment.\nThe employment numbers, whether you look at the labor force or total population, improve markedly for subsequent age groups under 30. About 61 percent of the 20- to 24-year-old population was employed, and 73 percent of the 25- to 29-year-old cohort was employed. So, those 16- to 19-year-olds are making the jobs picture for those under 30 look a bit bleaker than it actually is.\nDaniels also said that \u201cone in five men of prime working age\u201d didn\u2019t go to work. He\u2019s close \u2014 and again, he\u2019s using total population numbers, which would include both those who are not actively looking for work because they are discouraged and those who simply do not work. We looked at the statistics for all men age 25 to 54, and found that nearly 82 percent were employed. That means 18 percent, or 1 in 5.5, didn\u2019t go to work.\nBorrowing Less Than Last Year\nDaniels relied on outdated numbers in claiming that the federal government \u201cborrows one of every three dollars it spends.\u201d That was true last year, but this fiscal year, the government is borrowing $1 of every $3.71 spent, according to the Congressional Budget Office\u2019s most recent projections.\nFor fiscal year 2011, which ended Sept. 30, 2011, total outlays were $3.6 trillion, and the deficit was $1.3 trillion. That\u2019s $1 borrowed for every $2.78 spent.\nBut for fiscal year 2012, CBO projects total outlays will be $3.6 trillion and the deficit will be $973 billion. That brings the borrowing down to $1 for every $3.71 spent.\nDaniels also made the surprising claim that \u201cthe late Steve Jobs [of Apple]- what a fitting name he had \u2013 created more of them than all those stimulus dollars the president borrowed and blew.\u201d Reporter Chris Isidore with CNN Money took an in-depth look at that dubious claim, finding that jobs at or for Apple pale in comparison to estimates for jobs created by the stimulus legislation. As is often the case with these claims, it\u2019s tough to say how many jobs Steve Jobs gets credit for: Apple itself employs about 63,000 people, but then there are potentially 700,000 assembly workers putting together Apple gadgets at other companies, many of them overseas \u2014 plus jobs creating apps for iPhones.\nUnder the stimulus, meanwhile, up to 3.6 million more persons were working than would have been the case without the law, at its peak in the third quarter of 2010. That\u2019s according to the CBO. Daniels\u2019 office discounted the CBO\u2019s analysis and gave a vague accounting of employment attributed to Jobs.\nCNN Money, Jan. 25: \u201cBetween Apple and its suppliers, there are hundreds of thousands of jobs that have been created and sustained over years and years,\u201d said [Daniels\u2019] press spokeswoman Jane Jankowski. \u201cMeanwhile, a number of credible economists, including Robert Barro of Harvard have questioned whether the stimulus created any net new jobs; if they did, the jobs were temporary and disappeared as the stimulus money ended.\u201d\nBarro wrote in a Feb. 2010 opinion piece in the Wall Street Journal that he was \u201cskeptical\u201d of the claims the White House had made \u201cabout GDP increases and saved jobs.\u201d\nFACT CHECK: McCain\u2019s erroneous earmark attack\nFACT CHECK: The Gingrich counterattack in Florida",

        "raw_content": "Dean Smith and Wallace Wade: Teachers of Life, Not Just \u2018Coaches\u2019\nFebruary 26, 2015 | Written by Frank Hill\nHow were Dean Smith and Wallace Wade most alike?\n\u2018They saw themselves as \u2018teachers\u2019 first and foremost\u2019.\n\u2018What\u2019s that you say? 2 of the most successful collegiate coaches in the history of college sports in America thought of themselves as \u2018teachers\u2019 first and \u2018coaches\u2019 second? Are you kidding me?\u2019\nIt\u2019s true. Of course, it helped them a ton that they were great strategists, tacticians and geniuses of the sport they coached as well. And great recruiters, let\u2019s not ever forget that.\nHowever, at the heart of both men was the heart of a \u2018teacher\u2019 in the truest sense of the word.\nDean Smith has been eulogized for the past week by many people and writers, as well it should be. The theme of \u2018greatest college basketball coach ever\u2019 and \u2018retired with most wins ever\u2019 at the time has paled in comparison to the other attributes Coach Smith had towards his players and University, most of which indicated a selflessness of the man and a desire to teach young men how to become men.\n95% of his players graduated with a degree from The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. That may be a record that will never been reached by any coach in the future due to the pressure to \u2018win at all costs\u2019 which usually means \u2018at the cost of the student not getting a real education\u2019.\nKnow what Coach Wade used to tell his recruits to play football at Duke University from 1931-1950?\n\u2018Duke University will do far more for you in your lifetime than you will ever do for Duke University on the football field\u2019\nMeaning: \u2018Come to Duke, go to class in substantive courses, get your degree and you will be able to live a full and wonderful life regardless of whether you get drafted to play in the pros or not\u2019\nOf course, back then, pro football players made $100/game so playing pro ball was not as lucrative or as attractive as it is today. The average salary of a NFL football player is about $2 million per year notwithstanding the fact that a few QBs make $25 million per year.\nCoach Wade was recruited to come to Duke from the University of Alabama Crimson Tide where he coached 3 national championship teams in the 1920s including such teams as the \u2018Thundering Herd of Red Elephants\u2019 in 1931 which must be where Alabama picked up the association with their elephant logo.\nKnow what he wanted in his negotiations to come to Durham to coach a lowly football program after winning 3 national titles at Alabama, then and still a hot-bed of college football?\nHe wanted to be: 1) head football coach, of course; 2) Athletic Director, which makes sense and 3) Director of the Intramural Athletic Program for all undergraduates.\nDirector of Intramurals? That would be like Dean Smith wanting to be the director of the UNC fraternity flag football leagues and all the indoor intramural basketball, wrestling and racquetball leagues during the winter and softball leagues in the spring!\nCoach Wade thought it was important to be the Intramural Director. Simply because he was a teacher first and foremost and wanted to be a molder and shaper of men\u2019s character, morals and ethics, all of which come to light during any athletic contest. Just watch and see how different players react to bad calls by a ref next time you watch a game.\nCoach Smith believed in the team first, not the individual player. That is why he was the \u2018only person who could hold Michael Jordan below 20 points per game\u2019 goes the old saying. (actually it was 17.7 ppg)\nThe team was always stronger than the individual, Coach Smith preached. He invented the \u2018finger point\u2019 to the guy who passed the ball to the guy who got an easy shot because of his unselfishness and game smarts. He invented the \u2018run-and-jump\u2019 which was a variation on the trap defense. He invented the huddle at the foul line to call the next defense.\nAnd\u2026he invented the Four Corners offense. (or as he claims, he saw an Air Force team do it one time and he adapted it for his use at Carolina). If there ever was a way to teach people how to use your head to win a game, Dean Smith figured out how to do it regardless of the talent level he had on his team which was mostly great as the years went by.\nHe said of the Four Corners: \u2018It was a way to tell the other team that we owned you. Completely\u2019. How demoralizing for the other team. And it was simply an impossible offense to practice against in freshman ball at Carolina.\nBut you know what Coach Smith and Bill Guthridge and the entire Carolina coaching staff put at the highest priority year-in and year-out?\n\u2018Going to class\u2019.\nIf you wanted to run 32 flights of steps in Carmichael long ago, all you had to do as a varsity or jayvee player was skip a class and the next thing you knew, you were running up and down 32 sections at Carmichael with a 20-lb vest strapped to your chest and back. Try that sometime.\nDean Smith and Wallace Wade could not have been more apart on the political spectrum than any other two men on the face of this planet. Coach Smith was an active proponent of liberal causes from civil rights to nuclear freeze movements. Wallace Wade supported conservative causes and candidates such as Ronald Reagan and Jesse Helms.\nYou know where they both seem to be very similar?\nThey believed in the meritocracy of sport. That is, the best should play because the best players give your university the best chance of winning. Regardless of race; regardless of background.\nCoach Wade played in the 1916 Rose Bowl as a guard on the Brown University team with one of the first black All-Americans ever, Fritz Pollard. In 1938, Coach Wade took his southern Duke team up north to play Syracuse which had a black running back named Wilmeth Sindat-Singh who had been adopted by Indian parents. Coach Wade could have canceled the game or asked that Singh not play because of racial attitudes at the time but he didn\u2019t.\nCoach Smith recruited the first black player to play at Carolina, Charlie Scott in 1967. Scott had been insulted in a Davidson, NC soda shop when a coach named Lefty Driesell took him there to seal the deal to have Scott join the Davidson Wildcats under Lefty who had Davidson in the top 5 in national basketball polls at the time.\nAfter the incident, Scott supposedly told Driesell: \u2018I think I am going to play at Carolina, Coach\u2019. No doubt Lefty got that guy fired from the soda shop for helping him lose one of the most talented players in the nation at the time.\nBoth Dean Smith and Wallace Wade won a lot of games for The University of North Carolina and Duke University, respectively. That is for sure.\nPerhaps their most enduring legacy, or at least should be, was their dedication to the noble ideal that college athletics should be used to shape and mold the character of young men and women and help them get a solid broad-based liberal arts education while in college. Not to have college athletic programs used over-abundantly as a springboard to the NFL or NBA.\nLess than 1% of all college athletes ever get a chance to play professional sports, About the same amount of high school athletes ever get the chance to play at the collegiate level. A star high school athlete has a far greater chance of becoming a neurosurgeon, a business person, a lawyer or astronaut than becoming a professional athlete\u2026.assuming he takes advantage of the opportunity and goes to class every day and works his butt off like every other student who wants to achieve the same outcome.\nIt is true that the highest average lifetime earnings by any Carolina undergrad major is geography. Mainly because Michael Jordan was a geography major, which to his credit, he promised his parents and Coach Smith he would come back to get even as a star with the Chicago Bulls which he did.\nYou would have to imagine that both Coach Smith and Coach Wade would be saddened by the almost ridiculous commercialization that has taken place in college athletics over the years. They both played a part in that commercialization, mainly because they put out so many great teams that people wanted to watch play in person early on and then later in the Smith era, on television.\nHowever, regardless of whether or not they contributed to the commercialization of college sports or not, they both held true to their basic principles that colleges and universities are there primarily to educate the minds of young people and train them to be productive citizens for the future. Not to be mere steppingstones on the way to a professional career.\nWe don\u2019t know if Coach Smith or Coach Wade would agree with this but maybe college sports should adopt the same rule that exists in MLB. A high school baseball prospect has to decide whether to sign right out of high school and go into the minor league baseball system or go to college and not be eligible for the draft until after their junior year. That would be a minimum of 3 years for the athlete to go to class with other students and learn what it really means to be an academic student above and beyond being a jock on campus.\nPlus, if they don\u2019t become the next Clayton Kershaw of the Dodgers, they have an education they can use to start a business or get a job somewhere.\nNothing is ever perfect about college sports. It never has been. But in a world of imperfections and downright scams and disappointment in many athletes and programs, Dean Smith and Wallace Wade have set the standard for what collegiate athletics can, and should be all about.\nLike the Philosopher Kings, we\u2019d all be fortunate to see more \u2018Coaching Teachers\u2019 like them.",

        "title": "MyQTrends | Volume 4: A Collaboration With Hope",
        "raw_content": "A Collaboration With Hope\n\"You have cancer.\" Three words no one wants to hear. But for cancer patients, the latest advances in research and treatment are providing better outcomes and greater optimism.\nThese advances, however, bring about new challenges. First, the cost to diagnose and treat cancer is on the rise. Although only 1-3 percent of the population has cancer, they drive 10-12 percent of the total healthcare spend for employers. Second, doctors are finding themselves unable to keep pace with leading-edge diagnostics and drugs, which are being introduced at an unprecedented rate.\nTo address these challenges, Quantum Health is collaborating with City of Hope to provide our members, their families and their providers with a new level of support. We call it Personal Precision Oncology Management (PPOM).\nInstead of treating cancer with a \"one size fits all\" approach, more and more physicians are turning to precision medicine to treat their patients by taking into account an individual's genetic and molecular makeup, environment and lifestyle. With this approach, the patient's physician partners with an oncology expert from a nationally recognized comprehensive cancer center such as City of Hope to devise a personalized treatment plan. The patient benefits from the oncologist's expertise without the need to travel to a different hospital and meet with a new physician, saving the patient both time and money.\nPrecision medicine offers physicians the ability to:\nReveal genetic factors that increase the risk of disease.\nSelect the best medications and dosages for improved outcomes and fewer side effects.\nIdentify risk of inherited diseases.\nProvide insight into rare diseases.\nWhat's even better is that all communication remains between physicians\u2014allowing the patient to focus on getting well.\nFounded in 1913, City of Hope is one of only 49 comprehensive cancer centers in the nation and has been ranked one of the nation's best cancer hospitals by U.S. News & World Report for over 10 years.\nResearch conducted at City of Hope has led to significant advances in modern medicine, including the development of synthetic human insulin, human growth hormone and the technology behind the widely used cancer-fighting drugs Herceptin, Rituxan and Avastin. Oncologists at City of Hope are also at the forefront of a powerful form of immunotherapy known as CAR T-cell therapy, in which the patient's own immune cells are reprogrammed to recognize and attack targeted tumor cells.\nBecause City of Hope is dedicated to providing access to the highest quality care in the most cost-effective manner, they receive calls daily from physicians across the U.S. asking for their help. In fact, 84 percent of oncologists say they need decision support for precision medicine.\nA groundbreaking collaboration\nAt Quantum Health, we pride ourselves in offering our members personalized care and guidance throughout their entire healthcare journey. And now, we're looking forward to a first-of-its kind collaboration with the oncology experts at City of Hope.\nWhen it comes to a serious health event such as cancer, Quantum Health is uniquely positioned between the member and the treating physician from the very beginning\u2014at just the precise moment when physicians are first determining a diagnosis and treatment plan. By pairing City of Hope's best-in-class expertise with our industry-leading consumer navigation and care coordination services, we'll be able to bring our members Personal Precision Oncology Management (PPOM). This will allow us the ability to connect the member's oncologist with the leading oncologists at City of Hope\u2014ultimately improving the member's projected outcome.\nKara Trott, founder and CEO of Quantum Health is thrilled to be offering this new program to clients in the coming months. \"City of Hope is at the forefront of precision medicine and cancer treatment expertise,\" says Kara. \"Cancer is emotionally taxing for people and their families. The rapid pace of change leaves people bewildered about what to do. There is also a risk of misdiagnosis leading to unnecessary and non-beneficial treatments that result in avoidable cost and suffering for the patient, as well as poorer outcomes. This relationship with City of Hope will arm our clinical care coordinators with information regarding the latest research and technology to deliver unparalleled cancer care navigation and support to our members, their families and their providers on their unchosen healthcare journey.\"\nThe key to surviving cancer is access to the right care, at the right place, at the right time. Finally, the odds are in favor for patients with cancer.\nStay tuned for more information about our collaboration with City of Hope in future editions of MyQTrends!",

        "title": "Spring Break Re-Post 1: How God Judges the Nations",
        "raw_content": "Spring Break Re-Post 1: How God Judges the Nations\nI\u2019m taking a little spring break from blogging this week and reposting some oldies. This post, from August of 2008, is especially appropriate in light of last week\u2019s discussion about Glenn Beck\u2019s controversial comments. (See also Scot McKnight\u2019s fantastic post on the subject.)\nJames, the brother of Jesus, wrote the following in an open letter to the early church: \u201c\u2026Weep and howl for your miseries which are coming upon you\u2026[Your sin] will be a witness against you and will consume your flesh like fire.\u201d Was he referring to a) homosexuality, b) abortion, or c) excessive wealth?\nWhen the Prophet Ezekiel describes why God destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah, does he cite the cities\u2019 a) sexual promiscuity, b) abortion record, or c) excessive wealth/neglect of the poor?\nThe answer, again, is c. In Ezekiel 16:49, the prophet quotes God as saying: \u201cBehold, this was the guilt of your sister Sodom: she and her daughters had pride, surfeit of food, and prosperous ease, but did not aid the poor and needy. They were haughty, and did abominable things before me; therefore I removed them, when I saw it.\u201d (emphasis mine)\nIn his letter to Timothy, Paul urged his young prot\u00e9g\u00e9 to \u201cflee from these things, you man of God, and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, perseverance, and gentleness\u2026\u201d Was Paul warning against a) homosexuality, b) pornography, or c) wealth?\nThe answer is c. Paul writes, \u201cIf we have food and covering, with these we shall be content. But those who want to get rich fall into temptation and a snare, and many foolish and harmful desires which plunge men into ruin and destruction. For the love of money is a root of all sorts of evil, and some by longing for it have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs. Flee from these things, you man of God, and pursue righteousness\u2026\u201d (I Timothy 6:9-11)\nI highlighted the passages above to show how the Bible consistently employs strong language to describe the potential dangers of wealth, and to condemn the neglect of the poor. The \u201cfire and brimstone\u201d tones so often used by evangelicals to judge homosexuality or abortion are actually more commonly used in the Bible to judge excessive wealth and injustice toward the needy\u2026sins that perhaps hit a little too close to home.\nI can\u2019t tell you the number of times I\u2019ve been warned of God\u2019s impending judgment on America in response to gay marriage and abortion. Attend just about any church event billed as \u201ca time of prayer and fasting for our nation\u201d and the focus will be on these hot-button issues. However, a more serious look at Scripture reveals that the most consistent criteria regarding God\u2019s judgment of nations is how those nations treat the poor.\nFor example, the prophet Amos tried desperately to warn that the northern kingdom of Israel would be destroyed. Why was God going to allow this to happen? Writes Amos, \u201cAlas for those who lie on beds of ivory, and lounge on their couches, and eat lambs from the flock, and calves from the stall\u2026Therefore they shall now be the first to go into exile, and the revelry of the loungers shall pass away.\u201d (Amos 6:4, 7) In Israel, Amos described a kingdom in which the rich \u201ctrample the head of the poor into the dust of the earth.\u201d (Amos 2:7)\nIsaiah too warned that destruction would befall Judah because of its mistreatment of the poor: \u201cWoe to those who decree iniquitous decrees\u2026to turn aside the needy from justice and to rob the poor of my people of their right\u2026What will you do on the day of punishment, in the calamity that will come from far away?\u201d (Isaiah 10:1-3)\nJeremiah also condemned the wealthy who had amassed riches at the expense of the poor. He writes,\u201cThey have become great and rich, they have grown fat and sleek. They know no bounds in deeds of wickedness; they judge not with justice the cause of the fatherless, to make it prosper, and they do not defend the rights of the needy. \u2018Shall I not punish them for these things?\u2019 says the Lord, \u2018and shall I not avenge myself on a nation such as this?\u2019\u201d (Jeremiah 5:26-29)\nEven at the ultimate judgment, Jesus makes the standard for judging the nations quite clear:\n\u201cI was hungry, and you gave Me something to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave me something to drink; I was a stranger, and you invited Me in; naked, and you clothed Me; I was sick, and you visited Me; I was in prison, and you came to Me.\u201d (Matthew 25:35-36)\nAnd what fate befalls those nations who do differently?\n\u201cDepart from Me accursed ones, into the eternal fire which has been prepared for the devil and his angels.\u201d\nSo I guess the question is, how does the U.S. stack up? No one would dispute that we are a wealthy nation. But how do we treat the needy among us? And how do we respond to the incredible poverty around the world?\nhttps://rachelheldevans.com/blog/repost-nations\nSpring Break Re-Post 2: The Pivot Questionnaire\nBrowse articles with tag: social justice\nURL: https://rachelheldevans.com/blog/repost-nations",

Despite the holiday\u2019s questionable origins (a discussion not for this blog), this is a holiday for being thankful for all you have. And while a lot of us are surprised by how fast this year has gone by (seriously, how the hell is it already late November?), for many of us it has been a stellar year. I know that\u2019s the case for me. I\u2019ve got plenty to be thankful for this year.\nAnd if it\u2019s not too much trouble, I\u2019ll run down some of those things I\u2019m grateful for (I swear, this won\u2019t be too long, and I\u2019ll try not to turn it into bragging):\nI\u2019ve published two stories, the sci-fi novelette Gynoid and the fantasy romance short story What Happened Saturday Night, on Wattpad, and both were very well received. I also wrote half of the novel Full Circle, edited the entirety of Rose (and will probably edit it again, as soon as I have feedback from both my beta readers), made good progress on a new story, and had more ideas for other stories than I could ever write.\nWhile I work on my writing, I also have a good job that allows me to do really rewarding work with a great team. That job also has great pay and benefits, so I can afford to pay my rent and my bills, never go hungry, and even put away some cash into savings. And every now and then, I can even afford a little splurge for things like wall art, a new addition to my doll/figurine collection, or even awesome shows (heck, sometimes the job gets me discount to awesome entertainment in town).\nSpeaking of rent, I have a great apartment in a good area near where I work. I can afford to live on my own, and do what I want within my apartment, so I don\u2019t have to worry about anyone seeing me at my kookiest. And since I\u2019ve lived here for nearly a year and a half, I\u2019ve had time to settle in and make it my happy place, a great place to relax, be creative and occasionally entertain friends (Joleene Naylor knows what I\u2019m talking about).\nMy health has improved greatly since the New Year. I\u2019ve been eating healthier, cutting back on the sweets, and so have lost about thirty extra pounds. My back problems have also improved, thanks to the ongoing treatments of a really good chiropractor and my improved diet. I feel better than I have in ages, and as long as I keep things up, I\u2019ll continue to get better (though I doubt I\u2019ll ever be fit enough to be a prima ballerina or a bodybuilder).\nI don\u2019t have a driver\u2019s license, but I\u2019ve made incredible progress towards getting one. And with a bit more practice, especially with maneuverability and parking, I could have my license within the next year (though whether a car comes with that is another issue entirely).\nI live close to my family, and we\u2019re all on good terms for the most part (though I would not want to live with any of them again if I can help it). I also have plenty of friends, and I\u2019m glad to have their love and friendship everyday. I know that if I need them, they will give me their support, and help me through another day.\nFinally, I have you, my Followers of Fear. Over the six-plus years I\u2019ve been blogging, you\u2019ve stood by me, seen me at some of my best and worst moments, and posted your thoughts and encouragement, and even bought some of my published work. And over this past year, Rami Ungar the Writer has grown significantly, to the point where I\u2019m less than fifty followers away from hitting the thousand follower milestone. It gives me such joy to write for and interact with you guys every day, and I hope I can continue to do so for ages to come.\nOf course, this is just a fraction of the many things I\u2019m thankful for, but I\u2019m thankful for them all nonetheless. And I\u2019m glad I\u2019m aware of them and thankful for them, because I can think of a number of people who are just as lucky as me, or even luckier, and yet are miserable. They\u2019re not satisfied with what they have and they constantly want more.\nMy mother and me when we went to see Swan Lake this past weekend. Not only was it an incredible show, but I got to experience it with someone I dearly love and who gets me on so many levels. I\u2019m incredibly thankful for her and our relationship together. Also, I\u2019m looking at the button on my phone camera, in case you\u2019re wondering where my eyes are looking.\nNow, there\u2019s nothing wrong with wanting more than what you have. I want to expand my readership, write more stories, and get more of them published. Heck, I wouldn\u2019t mind being able to write full-time if I could. But some people, they just don\u2019t appreciate what they have. They could have a loving family, a big house (or several), a nice car (or several), and enough money for vacations abroad and fancy gadgets and whatever. But they aren\u2019t happy. They want more. More stuff, more sexual partners, more fame and prestige. A friend once told me he talked to a man who was depressed because he didn\u2019t receive as big a Christmas bonus as someone else in their office, even though he felt they did the same work and the same amount of work. Both bonuses were in the five-figure range, which boggled the both of us. How could anyone be in a position where that sort of money is given as a Christmas bonus and NOT be happy?\nAnd that\u2019s why I\u2019m thankful for one more thing: I\u2019m thankful that I can recognize what I have. Some people can only recognize what they don\u2019t have, and that bites deeply into their happiness. They may feel good when they get a promotion or they bed someone deeply attractive or they get that new house on the Italian coast, but it\u2019s only a temporary drug high, and the crash they feel after the high wears off just leaves them as empty as before. It\u2019s not a true happiness, not at all.\nAnd that\u2019s why I\u2019m grateful for one more thing: that I\u2019m capable of recognizing all that I have and that I\u2019m grateful for. Yeah, I\u2019m not rich or famous (though I could be someday), but I\u2019m glad for everything I have. I worked hard to get it, and I know it could be taken away all in an instant with one bad day. So when something new comes into my life\u2013a new follower, some good news on the writing front, the chance to do something fun with friends or family, or even a new doll for my collection\u2013that drug high will go away, but a good feeling will remain. I\u2019m grateful for it all, and I hope I remain that way for the rest of my life.\nSo this Thanksgiving, my Followers of Fear, let\u2019s all be grateful for what we have, and express that gratitude as best we can. Because we could have nothing at all, or we could have plenty and not realize it. I prefer to have some stuff, and be glad that I do have them. And if you ask me, that\u2019s a good way to go about things.\nHappy Thanksgiving, and until next time, pleasant nightmares.\nMe being thankful for all that i have. And thank you, Sailor Moon, for constantly giving me so much to work with, from entertainment to story ideas to illustrative GIFs.\nSouvenirs!!!\nPosted: July 11, 2017 in Living and Life, Tales across the US\nTags: books, Boston, dolls, entertainment, Funko Pop, Harry Potter, horror, Lizzie Borden, magic, Massachusetts, novel, Rose, Salem, Salem Witch Trials, scary stuff, Slytherin, souvenirs, travel, witchcraft, witches\nI swear, this is the last time I\u2019m posting about my Boston trip. Unless I actually did capture ghost voices (or EVPs, as believers prefer), in which case there will be another post. Don\u2019t worry though, that\u2019ll take a while to accomplish, so don\u2019t go to the unsubscribe button just yet. Also, this post will be a quick one\u2026I think. I\u2019m saying that while still writing it, so who knows?\nAnyway, as you can tell from the title, this is about the souvenirs from my Boston trip. On Instagram I broke these down by type of souvenir (book, toy, etc), but here I think I\u2019ll separate it by day or location. Why? Just makes more sense that way, it seems.\nIndependence Day souvenirs.\nAs I said in my last post, I went into a Harry Potter shop and a comic book shop on that day. I\u2019m a Slytherin (mostly because I\u2019m pure evil), so I bought some Slytherin gear from the Harry Potter shop. Specifically, a sticker and a tie.\nThe ancient and noble House.\nI\u2019m wearing this the next time I wear a tie.\nFrom the comic book store I went a little crazy. In addition to some more stickers, I bought a couple of those Funko Pop dolls. Those who know me won\u2019t be surprised which franchises I bought dolls from.\nLooks great on my laptop.\nMy first, and probably my favorite Doctor.\nMoonies forever!\nIncluding all the anime figurines I\u2019ve been collecting, I\u2019m building quite the doll collection. And I\u2019m not ashamed to say that.\nSalem souvenirs.\nIt won\u2019t surprise you that most of the souvenirs here are witch-related. They\u2019re also all books. Well, there is a print of the House of the Seven Gables under a creepy moon, but it\u2019s copyrighted, and the last thing I want is a copyright lawsuit on my hands, so forgive me if I don\u2019t post a photo of that here.\nI\u2019ve always been curious.\nYou knew this was going to be coming home with me.\nThis will make a great reference material.\nI swear, it\u2019s another reference book. I\u2019m not going to do anything evil\u2026probably.\nAt least you can\u2019t say I won\u2019t get bored or go without reading material for a while.\nLizzie Borden souvenirs.\nLuckily, I went easy on the souvenirs here. And of course, they are so totally me.\nBecause I\u2019m on a true crime kick lately.\nNot going to lie, this doll creeps even me.\nSo that\u2019s all my souvenirs. Pretty cool, huh?\nThat\u2019s all for now\u2026on Boston, anyway. I probably won\u2019t post anything new until the weekend so you don\u2019t get sick of me, but if something big comes up, I\u2019ll probably have to talk about it. In the meantime, I\u2019m going to work on Rose for a little while. Wish me luck, and good night, my Followers of Fear. Pleasant nightmares!",

        "raw_content": "I read an article saying that the average human being only uses a small percentage of their lung capacity. I read another saying that we also only use a small percentage of our brain capacity. I believe we only use a small percentage of our capacity for goodness.\nI was talking to a friend today about this and, in an attempt to be supportive (always appreciated), she made an off-hand remark that doing good was not that hard. I beg to differ. For instance, you can do aerobic exercise to increase lung capacity (really folks, I\u2019m not a doctor so, no medical advice here). You can take classes and do word puzzles to increase your brain capacity. Both of these take effort and commitment. Improving your \u201cgoodness capacity\u201d also takes effort and commitment.\nRegarding the effort \u2013 well, here I am on vacation after working five months straight. I worked every day, 70-80 hours per week. I\u2019m heading back to work at the end of the month, yet I have taken on this project. It is not simply about writing. It involves developing the website (thanks for reading, subscribing and sharing), planning my route across the U.S. and meeting the people who will be profiled (investigating job fairs, food banks, etc.). There\u2019s been some time spent getting out the word about the project to individuals and media (yes, there will be some coverage). Of course there will be the drive across the U.S (2181.82 miles and 32 hours and 13 minutes according to MapQuest). And finally, the writing part. That\u2019s a lot of effort.\nIn regards to the commitment, well that\u2019s a bit of the inspiration for this project. When things were really tough for me, I was surprised by both the people who were there for me and those that weren\u2019t. This project is to honor those who were. You see, every time I said a heartfelt thank you I was told, \u201cJust pay it forward.\u201d This term came into common usage following the release of the movie of the same name in 2000. Most have said it, few have done it. When things get better, we tend to get so involved with our everyday life that we forget these promises. One thing my dad taught me is never to break a promise.\nI woke up this morning and had a flashback to where I was two years ago. I was living in Phoenix, Arizona, my air conditioning had broken and I had no money to fix it. It was 106 degrees in my kitchen (according to my meat thermometer) and I lived that way for a month and a half. It\u2019s hard for me to forget the promises I made.\nI\u2019ve received incredible support for this project. Some have talked about karma \u2013 \u201cOh, you will have such good karma from this,\u201d they say. The thing is, if we do things with the expectation of good karma coming back at us, it seems a bit selfish. While I do believe in karma (to a point), I\u2019m not sure that this should be our primary reason for doing not only what is right, but maybe going above and beyond. Perhaps we should do it simply to work on improving our \u201cgoodness capacity.\u201d\nJust as the more you exercise the easier it becomes and the better you feel, the more work you do to contribute to the world in a positive way, the easier it becomes and the better you feel.\nSo, while one reason for starting this project is to keep promises, the other reason is simply \u2013 For Goodness Sake.\nNote: The Rebel-With-A-Cause Road Trip begins in approximately 10 days. Feel free to spread the word. Oh, and follow me on Twitter @rblcause.\nTags: Giving Back, Pay-it-Forward, Road, Roadtrip, Travel, Trip",

        "raw_content": "We drove a $95,000 Porsche Cayman to see if it\u2019s more than a Boxster with a roof \u2014 here\u2019s the verdict\nPorsche 718 Cayman and the 718 Boxster make up the company\u2019s mid-engine lineup.\nIn 2017, Porsche debuted the third generation Cayman sports car with a pair of new turbocharged, flat-four-cylinder engines.\nThe new engines proved to be controversial as they delivered great performance, but lackluster sound.\nOur Porsche 718 Cayman S was powered by a 350 horsepower, 2.5-liter, turbocharged flat-four.\nThe Porsche 718 Cayman is arguably one of the most overlooked cars on the market today. And it\u2019s not because it isn\u2019t a good car. It\u2019s actually a great car. A world-class sports car of the highest order if I may be so bold. But it also lacks the superlatives that have been heaped on its corporate siblings.\nThe 911 is Porsche\u2019s heart and soul. While the Boxster is the car that saved Porsche from financial ruin in the late 1990s. The money it made from the Boxster paid for the Cayenne which revolutionized the luxury SUV market while the Macan is the best selling Porsche in the world. And then there\u2019s the Panamera, the critically acclaimed luxury sedan has been the darling of the automotive industry over the past year. It\u2019s also Business Insider\u2019s reigning car of the year.\nThat brings us back the to Cayman. For many, it was simply seen as the Boxster with a fixed roof. (Technically, that\u2019s true and Porsche\u2019s recent decision to move the both the Boxster and the Cayman under the 718 moniker only serves to reinforce that notion.)\nBut the reality is that the Cayman is a mid-engined, built-from-the-ground-up, pure-bred, Porsche sports car with a personality of its own.\nFor years, the rumor has been that Porsche restricted the Cayman\u2019s performance, preventing it from realizing its true potential in order to protect the iconic 911. Well, they aren\u2019t anymore. With the introduction of the Cayman GT4 in 2016 and the new turbo 718s, Porsche seems to have loosened the reins on its pint-sized sports cars.\nBusiness Insider had a chance to experience the new 718 Cayman S first hand last December on the roads in and around Atlanta, Georgia.\nOur 2017 Porsche 718 Cayman S test car started at $66,300. The Cayman S carries over for the 2018 model year with no mechanical changes. However, the base price has been raised slightly to $67,700 to account for inflation and Porsche\u2019s new standard maintenance plan. Options and fees tacked $28,625 on to our 2017 test car and pushed the as-tested price to $94,925. An identically optioned 2018 Cayman S would cost $96,890.\nHere\u2019s a closer look at the Porsche 718 Cayman S:\nSEE ALSO: I took a $163,000 Tesla Model X SUV on a road trip and discovered Tesla\u2019s greatest weapon isn\u2019t its cars\nThese days, nearly 2/3 of Porsche\u2019s annual sales come from its Macan and\u2026\n\u2026 Cayenne SUVs.\nWhile the Panamera sedan has been both a sales and critical success.\nGoldman Sachs (GS) maintain expectations in emerging currencies outperforming in 2018 and broad dollar weakness due to protectionism worriesMarketWatch \u2013 The big-name stocks in the crosshairs as trade-war worries reboot",

From individual designers working with clients, to large distributed teams, it makes the design process faster, smoother, and more efficient.\nOur existence as a remote team has been intentional since day 1. It enables us to tap into talent from all across the globe, rather than being limited by geographic location. We can bring on the best and the brightest regardless of where they\u2019re located.\nWhen we hire, we look for people who see remote work as an upgrade\u2014an improvement to their lives. They\u2019re driven individuals who have the self-awareness to know how they work best. Some people function better in a physical office environment, or might be at the outset of their careers and want that sort of structure. Our team sees remote work as a big benefit, even if it has its own set of challenges.\nTypically, candidates go through a series of phone interviews and video interviews via Skype or Google Hangouts.\nWe check references and run a background check.\nWe encourage employees to get together often, whether that\u2019s a result of some personal traveling, a conference all members of a department or team are attending, or otherwise. As a company, we\u2019re very receptive to a team\u2019s request to meet for a retreat or team building activity. We\u2019ll have several team members in and around the New York City area meeting up in December, and Boston-area team members met recently as well. Our entire sales team met earlier this year for a retreat, and we sent the dev team to a conference recently as well. We want team members to meet as often as is feasible for them.\nIt\u2019s really all about creating intentional communication to ensure everyone is \u201cin the loop.\u201d We also have a Director of Employee Happiness whose job it is to listen to employees\u2019 concerns, answer questions, and help create solutions to any challenges or roadblocks. It creates an atmosphere of trust, which is an important part of our team culture.\nWe provide everyone with a MacBook, a Bluetooth headset, and any necessary devices or software needed for their home office.\nWe have an unlimited time off policy. Everybody\u2019s trusted to take time off as they see fit.\nOur team being remote was an intentional decision from the inception of our company.\nWe succeed at making remote work by being deliberate about our communication process. We have work-related communication tools, like Slack and Google Hangouts, as well as non-work related community building. Our team members are encouraged to be a part of our online community through participation in groups, chats, and in leading their own. We incentivize individuals to create and support their own channels, and encourage people to discuss what they\u2019re passionate about. It\u2019s a thoughtful process that emphasizes inclusion and community.\nEveryone\u2019s on Slack, and we have a lot of channels set up, both work-related and just for fun. There\u2019s a channel for just about everything, so if you\u2019re interested in chatting with coworkers about what you\u2019re cooking for dinner, your new workout program, or even just sharing cute animal videos, there\u2019s a place for you to do that.\nOn a professional level, Slack makes it easy for everyone to keep in close contact. If an issue arises, it\u2019s easy to call everyone\u2019s attention to it and solve the problem right there. And everybody\u2019s always really receptive to receiving direct messages if you need a question answered.\nWe also use Google Hangouts for video meetings and daily team standups.\nOur growth has played a large role in us becoming even more intentional about our communication. When we had a team of a dozen people, everyone talked to each other constantly. Now that we\u2019re a team of over 160 people, we\u2019ve had to become even more thoughtful about communicating\u2013even over communicating\u2013to ensure everyone is kept in the know. We\u2019re very explicit about our communication. We\u2019ve also implemented group work spaces in San Francisco and Boston, and we look for regular opportunities for team members to meet up.\nI have a fairly standard setup when working from home: I use a MacBook Air that I connect to an external display for that extra pixel space while designing. At other times the portability of the Air allows me just to unplug and go anywhere, which I love. I don\u2019t think I\u2019d be able to work from the same space all the time\u2014 I recommend mixing up your work environment when possible.\nWorking remotely gives you a great head start on the work/life balance\u2014I use the time I used to spend commuting to the office in the morning to take my dog for a walk and to eat breakfast without rushing out the door. I also try to make sure I have some \u201coffline\u201d time in the evening so I can spend a few distraction-free hours with my family.\nAs a remote designer it\u2019s really important to constantly share your work with your team or stakeholders. If you keep your ideas to yourself for too long before sharing, then you become attached to that particular solution. Sharing early makes iterating easier, and it ultimately leads to a better end result.",

        "raw_content": "Shared-Use with the Performing Arts in Active Historic Religious Buildings\nVanessa Lacida dela Torre, University of Pennsylvania\ndela Torre, Vanessa Lacida (2012). Shared-Use with the Performing Arts in Active Historic Religious Buildings. (Masters Thesis). University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, PA.\nReligious buildings, in the United States, are aging through a period of shifting religious conditions. The environment in which religious organizations operate is changing as religious buildings continue to age, and resources and congregations continue to diminish. Changing needs have forced congregations to adapt or to close, leaving historic religious buildings vulnerable to vacancy and demolition. As a result, religious organizations and preservation communities have explored means of diversifying available resources in order to sustain the active use of historic religious buildings. Shared-use, a traditional practice of religious organizations, proves to be a successful structure. Potential benefits of shared-use include occupancy for underutilized space, a possible source of income contributing to operations and maintenance, exposure to a variety of technical skills and labor, and an increase in building stakeholders that create a fundraising advantage. While shared-use takes a variety of forms, the organization Partners for Sacred Places has explored the unique shared-use relationship between religious organizations and the performing arts community. Many of these relationships exist throughout the United States, such exemplary cases occurring in Philadelphia. An initial exploration of existing relationships, however, has indicated potential consequences to shared-use and adverse impacts on building preservation. This thesis investigates the physical repercussions of performance arts programming that shares space within active historic religious buildings. The impacts of performance arts programming has been explored, in this thesis, through the investigation of existing shared-use relationships between performing arts and religious organizations. This thesis highlights six historic religious buildings of Philadelphia that have hosted performance arts programming for many years. Through various methods of data collection, the influences of the shared-use relationships are presented in the form of case studies. The analysis of the case studies illustrates the increase in overall building preservation that is stimulated by the presence of performance arts programming, as well as the continued deferred material maintenance of spaces in which they occupy. This thesis is a distinct study within the minimal body of work that exists to guide the preservation of purpose-built religious buildings in continuous use. The findings are a contribution to the management and establishment of the shared-use of religious buildings with performance arts programming.\npartners for sacred places, arts in sacred places, theater, gymnasium, sunday school",

        "raw_content": "European Journal of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery /\nS.K. van der Velden (Simone), O. Pichot (Olivier), R.R. van den Bos (Renate), T.E.C. Nijsten (Tamar) and M.G.R. de Maeseneer (Marianne)\nManagement strategies for patients with varicose veins (C2-C6): Results of a worldwide survey\nEuropean Journal of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery , Volume 49 - Issue 2 p. 213- 220\nObjectives This study evaluated how patient characteristics and duplex ultrasound findings influence management decisions of physicians with specific expertise in the field of chronic venous disease. Methods Worldwide, 346 physicians with a known interest and experience in phlebology were invited to participate in an online survey about management strategies in patients with great saphenous vein (GSV) reflux and refluxing tributaries. The survey included two basic vignettes representing a 47 year old healthy male with GSV reflux above the knee and a 27 year old healthy female with a short segment refluxing GSV (CEAP classification C2sEpAs2,5Pr in both cases). Participants could choose one or more treatment options. Subsequently, the basic vignettes were modified according to different patient characteristics (e.g. older age, morbid obesity, anticoagulant treatment, peripheral arterial disease), clinical class (C4, C6), and duplex ultrasound findings (e.g. competent terminal valve, larger or smaller GSV diameter, presence of focal dilatation). The authors recorded the distribution of chosen management strategies; adjustment of strategies according to characteristics; and follow up strategies. Results A total of 211 physicians (68% surgeons, 12% dermatologists, 12% angiologists, and 8% phlebologists) from 36 different countries completed the survey. In the basic case vignettes 1 and 2, respectively, 55% and 40% of participants proposed to perform endovenous thermal ablation, either with or without concomitant phlebectomies (p <.001). Looking at the modified case vignettes, between 20% and 64% of participants proposed to adapt their management strategy, opting for either a more or a less invasive treatment, depending on the modification introduced. The distribution of chosen management strategies changed significantly for all modified vignettes (p <.05). Conclusions This study illustrates the worldwide variety in management preferences for treating patients with varicose veins (C2-C6). In clinical practice, patient related and duplex ultrasound related factors clearly influence therapeutic options.\nKeywords Chronic venous disease, Clinical findings, Duplex ultrasound, Patient characteristics, Treatment strategies, Varicose veins\nPersistent URL dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.ejvs.2014.11.006, hdl.handle.net/1765/89507\nJournal European Journal of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery\nvan der Velden, S.K, Pichot, O, van den Bos, R.R, Nijsten, T.E.C, & de Maeseneer, M.G.R.

        "raw_content": "The digital age is truly upon us. Sometimes it seems as if you can\u2019t throw a rock without hitting a rock-throwing review site that features star ratings and user comments. Even industries such as hospitality\u2014that are at first glance entirely physical\u2014are increasingly moving into the online marketplace as a means of reaching new customers and expanding their consumer base, which is why if you are a restaurant owner, you need a well-designed website. Having a great web presence in the current market can boost your numbers, increase customer loyalty, and establish you as a force to be reckoned with on the restaurant scene. But your site absolutely must be creative, engaging, and extremely user-friendly. Gone are the days of simple flash sites with a menu and a few paragraphs of text explaining the origins of your special pizza recipe. Today\u2019s restaurant enthusiasts demand more from their restaurant websites, and you need the best web design that you can get to appeal to an increasingly fickle market.\nFortunately, at Restaurant eSolutions, we take great pride in providing specialized restaurant websites to establishments of all shapes and sizes. We know that your restaurant is as unique as you are, and designing a website for a restaurant needs to capture the je ne sais quois of your establishment\u2014even if you don\u2019t serve French cuisine. We have years of experience designing websites for restaurants and specifically cater to the needs of the hospitality industry. For example, we\u2019ve analyzed trends and concluded that most consumers, particularly those visiting unfamiliar towns and territories, search for restaurants on their mobile devices. That\u2019s why we make sure our web design is mobile-friendly and capable of attracting those transient customers who add so much to your bottom line. Having a mobile-friendly site attracts a far wider range of customers than one that only works well on a PC, which is just one of the special features that makes Restaurant eSolutions an industry leader in building a website for a restaurant.\nWe\u2019re extremely proud of our user engagement features as well. With our innovative, aesthetically pleasing web design, we allow your loyal customers not only to book their reservations on your site, but to order as well. You shouldn\u2019t miss out on customer dollars because you were too busy with your existing customers to answer a phone call about a reservation. With online reservation booking, that\u2019s a thing of the past. Similarly, your customers will be able to order from your menu online, so if you offer takeaway and delivery services, you\u2019ll be able to provide for hungry people on the go as well as those who love to sit down over a luxurious, indulgent meal.",

Litro is a magazine that I\u2019ve had my eye on for a long time in terms of trying to place stories, and it\u2019s great to get an acceptance from them.\nThe story, Make Me British, was inspired by TV talent shows and the refugee crisis. It will be published \u2013 I think \u2013 sometime in March as part of the magazine\u2019s \u2018Story Sunday\u2019 series.\nNow I Am Become Ken Burns, the Destroyer of Worlds was knocked out of the Indie Writers\u2019 Deathmatch in the semi-finals. The match was close, but in the end the eight-hour time difference with my opponent really told on my support \u2013 voting ended at 5am GMT but 9pm PST (Pacific Standard Time).\nThere\u2019s now something of a deathmatch-shaped hole in my life, I have to admit. Much of the past two weeks has been spent voting or corralling other people to vote, with multiple pestering Facebook updates. I don\u2019t know what to do with myself now.\nMy opponent is now in the final, fighting a losing battle against the favourite, who has seemed unstoppable right from the start. Despite being knocked out, finishing as a semi-finalist guarantees publication in the next issue of Broken Pencil plus a prize pack, so that\u2019s something to look forward to. The whole thing was a strange experience, enjoyable but also very stressful. Thanks to the team at Broken Pencil for selecting my story and to all those people who voted for me \u2013 the support was incredible.\nThere was also some further consolation on Monday as I was invited to attend The London Magazine\u2019s short story awards. This took place at the Terrace Pavilion at the House of Commons \u2013 a very impressive venue with beautiful views over the Thames. I wasn\u2019t a winner but my story, The Black Hole of Westminster, was \u2018highly commended\u2019.

Voting is now underway here.\nThe story I\u2019m up against, Ryan Power\u2019s Jean-Claude Van Damsel in Distress, has a lot of support but has also appeared quite divisive on the message boards. I should therefore stand a chance, even if a small one, of making it into the final. In any case, being one of the four finalists guarantees publication for my story in a future issue and a cash prize \u2013 both of which will be highly appreciated.\nIf you can spare five minutes, please go vote for me!",

        "raw_content": "SELLAJOCH CLOSED? FOR THE SAKE OF NATURE\nCopyright Bj\u00f6rn Gross\nThe Sella Pass isn\u2019t a South Tyrolean landmark, after all. The Pass is located east of Bozen and connects the valley of Gr\u00f6den with the valley of Fassa. The highest point of the Pass is at 2.218 m above sea level and for South Tyroleans just one of many Passes crossing their region. But: For motorcyclists, the J\u00ebuf de Sela is a marvellous place! By the way, that\u2019s the name of the Pass in Ladin. So before talking about the Pass and the news around it, just a quick sidenote about Ladin and South Tyrol: South Tyrol is a region in Northern Italy and multilingual. People here speak three languages (not everyone speaks all of them, but there are three languages which are being spoken by different groups): German, Italian and Ladin. The first two languages, well, no need to explain them - but Ladin, compared to them, is almost exotic. The third language group, the so called Ladin of the Dolomites, is being spoken today by 30.000 people and is part of the same language group like the retro roman languages in Switzerland. Ladin ist one of the oldest languages in the whole Area of the Alps and Northern Italy. In South Tyrol there are two valleys where Ladin is being spoken: The valley of Gr\u00f6den and the valley of Gader. Therefore, it could be nice to at least know what language people speak when passing by.\nCopyright Klaus Nahr\nMotorcyclists who love motorcycling tours in Italy and South Tyrol and like mountain streets, generally know and love the Sella Pass - for various reasons: The pass goes through the mountains of Sella and the so called group of Langkofel on a whole length of 53,8 km. The specialty of this pass are not only the curvy road and the breathtaking view but also that in winter motorcyclists are replaced by ski-tourists: The area is part of Dolomiti Superski, an over regional net of ski-regions, and you can surround the whole mountain on the ski slopes on both sides.\nNow comes the BUT. The love of motorcyclists and tourists in general is also a little disaster at the same time - not for men, but for nature. The region is under high exposure due to the many motorcycles, cars etc. driving up the mountain and down on the other side of the valley every day. And that\u2019s why this year will be different. All you motorcyclists, take a note: In July and august, the Sella Pass will be closed each Wednesday for all motorized vehicles from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.! The good news: You can make wonderful hiking trips, take the bus and stop at one of the restaurants and simply enjoy the scenic view once without your bike - and it will still be awesome. Of course, the region will offer cultural and culinary entertainment, it won\u2019t get boring at all.\n\u201cThis way we will reduce our CO2-emissions and will thus contribute to safe and preservate the sensitive nature- and mountain-world here, which is also under protection as an area of world heritage by UNESCO. It\u2019s our duty to act responsibly\u201d, says the environmental territorial counsellor Richard Theiner to the online newsmagazine stol.it.\nWe can promise you this: A motorcycle tour to South Tyrol is worth the journey in every case - no matter if you cross the Sella Pass or not, there are so many other options. If you have doubts, you can just sit down at Bozen on the fruit market and enjoy an aperitivo in the sun, until you know where you wanna ride the next day.

        "raw_content": "\u201cGenerally speaking, the social status of the lay nurse in Czechoslovakia is little better than that of a servant. It is taken for granted that her morals are easy. Her wages are scanty, her vacations are insufficient, in some cases non-existent. She accepts living conditions in the hospitals where she works, that are unbelievably bad.\u201d\nFrances Elisabeth Crowell, 1922, from Memorandum re: Study of Sick Nursing and Health Visiting in Czechoslovakia\nFrances Elisabeth Crowell was a staff member of the Rockefeller Foundation (RF) and a dedicated nurse and social worker who devoted much of her life to the task of improving nursing education and standards.\nCrowell completed her nursing training in Chicago in 1895. After graduation she moved to Florida, where she served as superintendent and part owner of the Pensacola Infirmary. At the Infirmary, later renamed St. Anthony\u2019s Hospital, Crowell opened a school to train nurses.\nTen years later, Crowell relocated to New York to study social work at the New York School of Philanthropy. In 1906 she began working as a special investigator with the Association of Neighborhood Workers, producing research on the state of midwifery and its role among New York women, especially immigrant populations. She continued to compile research and produce significant studies on this topic while simultaneously serving as Executive Secretary of the Association of Tuberculosis Clinics in New York.\nIn 1917 Crowell devoted herself more fully to the eradication of tuberculosis when she joined the International Health Division (IHD) of the RF and began working for its Commission for the Prevention of Tuberculosis in France. As part of the Commission, Crowell trained medical personnel and organized dispensaries in order to help contain the tuberculosis epidemic in post-war France. Crowell remained in France until 1923, when she joined the Division of Studies Program of the RF. The new appointment allowed Crowell to remain in Europe, and it greatly expanded her influence, as she was charged with developing programs in nursing education throughout the continent.\nCrowell left the RF in 1941 and spent her remaining years in Italy. Although retired, she advised the American Red Cross in Italy during World War II. Crowell died in 1950 and was laid to rest in Santa Margherita, Italy, along the Mediterranean coast.\nElizabeth Crowell\u2019s officer's diaries are digitized and can be accessed through the Rockefeller Archive Center's (RAC) online collections. Additional documents, including her numerous reports commenting on the state of nursing across Europe in the 1920s, can be accessed at the RAC.",

        "raw_content": "Goblin, Back story, Deceased\nBizzle Boombox\nBizzle Boombox was a cunning business executive of a goblin oil company. Once a self-centered, egotistical goblin fighter in his youth, Bizzle had eventually matured to tackle many important financial decisions regarding the company's future. A rather imposing goblin due to his size being above average for his kind, Bizzle often intimidated those of fainter heart, especially when he became angry. His relations within the Company had remained strong up until his death, and with the dismissal of longtime rival Gelzig Sparkdealer from the company, Bizzle had a very flexible position that was not put into question nearly as often as it once was beforehand.\nYounger Days Edit\nBorn at the end of Trade War II, Bizzle was born to a lower middle-class family that struggled to remain out of the poverty line. His mother had been impregnated five times by Bizzle's abusive father, and only three of the children survived past infancy, including Bizzle himself being the eldest. Few, if any photos were taken of the family in their earlier years due to the inability to afford a camera. As he grew up to become a feisty child, Bizzle was often tasked with treading through the slums and gathering groceries for the family. Bizzle's father had abandoned the family when Bizzle was only five years old, so he and his siblings, one brother and one sister, had to endure ruthless trials of adulthood that had ripped apart their innocence far before they were physically grown. When he wasn't caring for the family, Bizzle often enjoyed the sport of \"bare-knuckle brawling\" with other hoodlums in the general area, which were often bet on with the small amount of macaroons each goblin brought. In fact, Bizzle endured several beatdowns which earned him a few terrible scars on his face and, at one point, a knocked out canine.\nIn the end, it was Bizzle himself to blame for his own demise. After living a life filled with stress and anger, Bizzle's cardiovascular health began to decline. Surrounded by a few trustworthy friends from his youth, Bizzle passed away from a severe myocardial infarction. The location of his remains are unknown to the general public.\nRetrieved from \"https://rpheaven.fandom.com/wiki/Bizzle_Boombox?oldid=24859\"",

This was in 1961.\nFirst of all, I will admit that I can\u2019t hear that song without thinking of the part in Orwell\u2019s 1984 where Winston Smith is forced to exercise by the severe woman on the telescreen. But the real point is that government health initiatives are not exactly new.\nI think most people have a certain aversion to being told what to do by anyone\u2013or feeling like they are\u2013even if they know it is the right thing to do. The old Libertarian in me understands this impulse. But that said, I think the Republicans really ought to get over their visceral hatred of Michelle Obama\u2019s anti-obesity campaign. I am becoming quite tired of them saying things like \u201cshe\u2019s telling us what to eat\u201d, and trying to paint her as a hypocrite over nonsense like this.\nWhat I wonder is: did anybody complain about that Robert Preston song at the time?\nPrev Post: How non-definitive can you get?\nNext Post: A brief apology:",

        "raw_content": "15) Be very careful, then, how you live\u2014not as unwise but as wise, 16) making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil. 17) Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord\u2019s will is. 18) Do not get drunk on wine, which leads to debauchery. Instead, be filled with the Spirit, 19) speaking to one another with psalms, hymns, and songs from the Spirit. Sing and make music from your heart to the Lord, 20) always giving thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. Instructions for Christian Households 21) Submit to one another out of reverence for Christ.\nSammy Tippit: We\u2019ve been talking about husband-and-wife relationships, and we\u2019ve especially been talking about communication and how vitally important communication is. We want to continue that discussion about how to communicate effectively. When the Bible begins to talk about the husband-and-wife relationship in Ephesians, chapter 5\u2026\n\u201cSubmitting yourselves to one another in the fear of Christ.\u201d Or you could say to submit in the reverence of Christ. A lot of times, the word submit is a word people don\u2019t like, but the Bible says it. It says to submit yourselves. So what does that mean? I\u2019ve come to a definition of what submission means. It means respecting with a spirit of humility at its root. We respect one another with a spirit of humility.\nWhen we have that respect for one another and it\u2019s rooted in humility, that enables communication and enables us to communicate with one another. So let\u2019s talk about communication and respecting and what those mean to you. How do you do that? How do you develop that spirit of respect for one another and develop that spirit of humility?\nDave Tippit: As I mentioned in a previous session, I think respect has to be earned. I think that sometimes, as we talked about with the different love languages, we\u2019re projecting what we want, what we respect in someone else, onto our spouses. But they may have a different value system of how to earn that respect.\nFor example, your wife may be someone who really needs someone to listen to her, have an attentive ear, empathize, not really say much, and not try to fix the problem whenever she\u2019s sharing her heart with you. That\u2019s what she respects. On the other hand, there may be a husband who comes from a more no-nonsense background and just kind of says what it is and is plain and straightforward in how he speaks. That\u2019s what he respects. You just tell him the truth, and\u2026\nSammy: You\u2019re talking about us?\nDave: I\u2019m not looking at y\u2019all for any reason.\nTex Tippit: The fruit doesn\u2019t fall far from the tree, does it?\nDave: I do think you have to learn to appreciate and value each other in the way each party respects and try to meet them in the middle with what you\u2019re talking about. I think true respect is born out of that. Whenever you do meet in the middle and don\u2019t try to get your wife to just do it your way or vice versa, respect will start to happen.\nKelly Tippit: I think that also just focusing on each other\u2019s strengths instead of weaknesses\u2026 If you\u2019re naturally somebody who sees the glass half empty instead of half full, you tend to focus on the weaknesses and want to change and make them a certain way. So I think that people like me who find that more of a challenge need to continually be focusing on the strengths and remembering that\u2019s what you want the other person to be doing. So you need to do that as well, and that will help build mutual respect.\nSammy: You know, one of the chief complaints I hear from couples when we talk about respect is that\u2026 One person will say, \u201cWell, my spouse is always trying to play the Holy Spirit, trying to say, \u2018I\u2019m going to make this person like Jesus.'\u201d Of course, that\u2019s an impossible task, especially for Tex, because I have a long, long way to go. Humility then plays a really great role in that. Again, we keep coming back to this idea of humility.\nI think that to be able to communicate, it\u2019s having that humble spirit that is important. I see that in you. For me, that spirit of humility has been there, and sometimes I get convicted because I go, \u201cOh man, I see how I\u2019m not like that.\u201d So tell me what causes you to develop that kind of humble spirit. I\u2019m not trying to say you\u2019re Ms. Humble, but you have to be with me.\nTex: We married, so\u2026 That\u2019s one thing that is like an eggshell. When an eggshell has been broken and you put it together, the pieces complement one another. I think that in all of our lives, like Kelly was saying, there\u2019s brokenness in places, yet we have our strengths and our weaknesses, and that brings us together.\nI think one of the things I have appreciated most about you is that you are so open, so you do challenge me in that area. You challenge me to be more open. It has been a blessing in my life, and at times\u2026 Sometimes you\u2019re so strong that I think, \u201cWhoa!\u201d and it causes me to pray, so I think it points me back to Jesus.\nSammy: This is all communication. That\u2019s what we\u2019re talking about. My voice\u2026 Braden, who is y\u2019all\u2019s youngest, is like me in some ways. I identify with Braden because my voice naturally is louder than I hear myself, so sometimes I\u2019m speaking loudly and people think I\u2019m being more\u2026 To me, I\u2019m not that way, but it feels that way. You\u2019ve been able to\u2026 This is what I was talking about with regard to humility.\nYou have watched me, and you\u2019ve kind of learned me and realized, \u201cHey, he\u2019s not meaning that the way it\u2019s coming out.\u201d You\u2019ve been able to discern that. To me, I don\u2019t know what it is, but I know it\u2019s a God thing. I know it\u2019s something God has done in your heart, because only God could do that. What about you guys? What is something you see in each other that just has blessed you or helped you to develop (like you said, you earn respect) that respect?\nKelly: I think that when I look at Dave, I really respect the way he values people who are different from him. He can see differences in people, and instead of being afraid of them or pushing them away, he learns from them. It\u2019s not trying to get them to change to be like him or to change their mind. He just really, genuinely cares.\nI think that has a lot to do with traveling. Growing up, he traveled so much, and he was around people who had different religions, different beliefs, and different customs and food, even, and it doesn\u2019t scare him to be around that. I do really value the way he can make someone feel comfortable just because he accepts them. There\u2019s no judgment there, and he\u2019s really good at learning from people who are different from him.\nDave: I mean, there are a couple of things, but I think that for me, the thing at the top of the list would be the fact that Kelly has that self-sacrificial servant\u2019s heart Christ has. She lives it every day. You can say things, but your actions speak louder than words, and every day she does selfless things that are really the glue to our family.\nIt\u2019s thankless so many times, especially from our kids (and me too). It\u2019s thankless, and she just keeps doing it out of that genuine, deep love she has for each one of us. She knows it\u2019ll make our family better, it\u2019ll make our family operate the way it\u2019s supposed to operate. Part B, really quickly, is what I mentioned earlier. It\u2019s just her heart for others.\nThat ties into humility too. It\u2019s especially with those who don\u2019t have a voice, the voiceless, those who are being bullied, those who just haven\u2019t been given much in life. She wants to walk alongside them and help them get to a point where they can thrive in how God has made them to be. I really appreciate that.\nSammy: Even in just discussing this, this is communication we\u2019re talking about. You brought this out, Kelly. Just recognizing the strength in the other person and how helpful even just verbalizing that is\u2026 One of my great weaknesses is verbalizing what I see. I see that I appreciate, but I need to verbalize it more. I need to verbalize the strengths in other people.\nThat\u2019s something Tex has done. One of the things that will help with our communication is to start communicating with each other those strengths we see in one another just like we\u2019ve done here. Building that respect keeps us rooted in that spirit of humility by seeing\u2026 The Scripture says, \u201c\u2026esteem others better than yourselves\u2026\u201d\nSeeing their strengths and recognizing that can be really, really helpful. Submitting yourselves to one another in the reverence and fear of Christ, that when you look at each other and you respect one another, your heart is rooted in a spirit of humility\u2026 That\u2019s what the Scripture says we can do that will help us, I believe, to communicate with one another.",

        "raw_content": "Reflections on Maimonides\u2019 8 levels of Charity (tzedakah)\nJuly 31, 2008 August 17, 2008 ~ Sasha\nGood timing. Just as I\u2019ve started this blog I came across a description of charity (the Hebrew word tzedakah) by the 12th century Jewish scholar and physician Maimonides\nMaimonides wrote a code of Jewish law, the Mishnah Torah, based on the Rabbinic oral tradition, and he described charity from the least to the most honorable as follows:\n8. When donations are given grudgingly.\n7. When one gives less than he should, but does so cheerfully.\n6. When one gives directly to the poor upon being asked.\n5. When one gives directly to the poor without being asked.\n4. When the recipient is aware of the donor\u2019s identity, but the donor does not know the identity of the recipient.\n3. When the donor is aware of the recipient\u2019s identity, but the recipient is unaware of the source.\n2. When the donor and recipient are unknown to each other.\n1. The highest form of charity is to help sustain a person before they become impoverished by offering a substantial gift in a dignified manner, or by extending a suitable loan, or by helping them find employment or establish themselves in business so as to make it unnecessary for them to become dependent on others.\nThis got me thinking about what motivates people to give. I asked this question of someone today and she said that people give because they want to see an impact, want to see a positive change in the world. I think that is true, but there\u2019s more to it than that. People give for lots of reasons, many laudable, some base.\nMaimonides suggests that all giving is not equal, that the motivation behind the gift has some moral content. My reading is that the greatest gifts are those that create a relationship of equals between the donor and the recipient. Otherwise, the gift can create subservience or obligation, can undermine the dignity of the recipient, and can keep the recipient subjugated to the giver and in a constant position of need. This means that we, people in a position to give and people who encourage other people to give, need to think about the power dynamics that we create, and about ways to make the dignity of the recipient paramount in everything we do.\nWhat about times when it\u2019s better not to be anonymous, when a gift can be a signal? There are times when putting one\u2019s name on a list of donors, on the side of a building, or on the name of the world\u2019s biggest Foundation, can be important as a statement about what can be accomplished with great wealth \u2013 a statement that can inspire others to act. Or a gift can make you part of a group of like-minded people, who are coming together to make a change in the world.\nI don\u2019t know how to unpack the moral pieces of this puzzle, but I think it\u2019s worth some more thought. I\u2019d love comments on this one in particular.\nPosted in philanthropy\tgivingmaimonidesphilanthropytzedakah\n\u2039 PreviousChicken in the Chicken Soup\nNext \u203a\u201cThings younger than McCain\u201d t-shirt\n11 thoughts on \u201cReflections on Maimonides\u2019 8 levels of Charity (tzedakah)\u201d\nRoss Knights says:\nFirst, I understand from my Jewish friends that \u2018tzedakah\u2019 is better translated as \u201csocial equity\u201d. I think that captures the essence of Level 1 giving, whereas \u201ccharity\u201d seems pejorative or otherwise somehow negative.\nI struggle with the anonymity issue too, and with the issue of free will vs. prompting (i.e., below Level 5). How about the recent upsurge in fundraising walks, bikes, swims, and the like? Or Jimmy Fund collections being taken in movie theaters? I still get repeated \u201cfinal membership notice\u201d mailings from organizations to which I stopped contributing years ago. And some charitable organizations trade mailing lists, which means once you give to one you suddenly get hit up by lots more of them\u2013so much for my anonymity there.\nArguably they are raising awareness (\u201cmindshare\u201d in marketing-speak) for their causes, prompting people to give who might otherwise not, trying to maintain membership rolls, using all the sophisticated marketing tools (e-mail, phone calls, repeated mailings, newsletters) normally used for advertising and commerce. Clearly it\u2019s a competitive business now, fighting for the charity dollar.\nAs a potential giver I often feel manipulated by these organizations and their slick marketing . I either don\u2019t give or I\u2019m at Level 8.\nBut back to anonymity: There is an argument for setting an example\u2013bearing \u201csocial witness\u201d\u2013where your right action can potentially inspire others to right action. It\u2019s a fine line, though, between social witness and peer pressure. Think of the \u201csponsor sign-up\u201d sheets that someone doing a fundraising walk/bike/swim posts in their workplace. Will the absence of my name on their list be noticed? I will be solidly in Level 6, 7, or 8 if I give, and that doesn\u2019t feel good to me\u2013it feels like manipulation.\nIf the action to which I am inspired is Level 5 or higher (5, 4, 3, 2, 1), then it feels less like manipulation and more like free will. But I\u2019m not sure how exactly to make that happen in others.\nI like learning about new charitable organizations and initiatives, and I balance my giving among local, national and global organizations. It\u2019s not always the biggest foundations that need my money the most\u2013I can perhaps make a bigger difference with my contribution to a small local effort.\nadichter says:\nWow, Ross, thank you for this. I don\u2019t know what to do about the market-ization of solicitation by charitable organizations, but I think the points you raise about the experience undermines what you hope to accomplish and feel as a donor are important.\nAna H says:\nLoving your blog. Read it all. Keep working on it.\ngreat stuff! but you do not have a full or exact translation of maimonides\u2019 eight levels of tzedakah. try this:\nThere are eight degrees of giving Tzedakah:\n1. The highest degree is to strengthen the hand of a Jew who is poor, giving that person a grant or loan or becoming a partner or finding a job for that person, to strengthen the person\u2019s hand, so that the person will not need to ask for assistance from others\u2026\n2. A lesser degree, is one who gives Tzedakah to a poor poor and is unaware of the recipient, who, in turn, is unaware of the giver. This is indeed a religious act achieved for its own sake.\nOf a similar character is one who contributes to a Tzedakah fund. One should not contribute\nto a Tzedakah fund unless he or she knows that the person in charge of the collections is\ntrustworthy and wise and knows how to manage the money properly\u2026\n3. The [third], lesser, degree is when the giver knows the recipient, but the recipient does not know the giver. The great sages used to go secretly and cast the money into the doorway of poor people. Something like this should be done, it being a noble virtue, if the Tzedakah\nadministrators are behaving properly.\n4. The [fourth], still lower, degree is when the recipient knows the giver, but the giver does not know the recipient. The great sages used to tie money in sheets which they threw behind their backs, and poor people would come and get it without being embarrassed.\n5. The [fifth], still lower degree is when the giver puts the Tzedakah money into the hands of poor people without being solicited.\n6. The [sixth], still lower degree is when he or she puts the money into the hands of a poor person after being solicited.\n7. The [seventh], still lower degree is when he or she gives the poor person less than he or she should, but does so cheerfully.\n8. The [eighth], still lower degree is when he or she gives the poor person grudgingly/with a feeling of pain/unhappily.\n(Mishna Torah, Laws of Gifts to Poor People, 10:7-14)\nthis is danny siegel\u2019s translation (www.dannysiegel.com). i prefer to translate #8 as \u2018giving via sadness/pain\u2019.\nwe can discuss this more.\nhttp://www.mitzvahheroesfund.org\nPingback: 10 things I knew nothing about a year ago \u00ab Sasha Dichter\u2019s Blog\nPingback: Canned beans or bananas? \u00ab Sasha Dichter\u2019s Blog\nPingback: Without even asking \u00ab Sasha Dichter\u2019s Blog\nali schultz says:\nthanks for the info i really needed it. (very interesting)\nPingback: Reflections on Maimonide's 8- Levels of Charity (Tzedakah) - Jewish Donor Blog\nPingback: 8 Levels of Charity | TZEDEKAH Foundation\nI have a broad experience of philanthropy / charity, including: Professionally, I have helped facilitate millions of dollars for organizations through innovative crowdfunding and strategy; growing up my family received financial assistance from community organizations; I have worked for a decade with executive & programming teams in the non-profit sector, and recently, our family received a gift to help offset medical expenses for my child directly from a friend unexpectedly.\nFrom all of these windows \u2013 I wish all of the work I do/could be erased through the first level of giving. I\u2019m sure my mother, when she was receiving from food pantries, though grateful for the help, would have preferred being on the receiving end of the first level of giving. I wish I wouldn\u2019t have needed to accept my friend\u2019s gift to help my child. I had called organizations that exist to help families with critically ill children, but my child\u2019s disease isn\u2019t on the list\u2026 so they compassionately offered: \u201cLet us know what you need.\u201d I didn\u2019t want to ask for money. I have a credit card -we\u2019ll pay it off later. But friends with more compassion and likely a more flexible budget and free decision-making came to me with a recognition that blew me away, \u201cYou have enough on your plate, you need to worry about your kid, not money.\u201d Not only did that make me feel supported, but it helped remove a worry in a time when we need more clear judgment. And it also demonstrated the shortfalls organizations have vs. individuals in addressing needs.\nYour observation was spot on: charity given on the lesser levels \u2013 while it helps address the need and provide a feeling of being supported / not alone and even encourages philanthropy by others- it does not help elevate the recipient who is poor. And it does not alleviate the worry / concern / burden of the giver. Band-aid. Cure. But more than that.\nImagine if we were constantly looking for ways to raise ppl up so that they can be in position to give vs. take. Help change the situation \u2014 making things right, like optimally right. And that is the literal meaning of \u2018Tzedakah\u2019 \u2013 NOT charity. Tzedek = justice. Our root for giving is justice, not as many would think: \u2018Chesed\u2019 which means loving kindness.\nThere are even more Jewish laws governing giving priorities\u2026 the Torah concept of tzedakah aims at holistically \u2018making things right\u2019 on all fronts: the giver, the recipient, and the community. Now take a look at what each type of giving in Maimonides\u2019s list does for each of the parties involved. The giver is part of the equation too. \ud83d\ude42\nWhen we look at giving as just for the other \u2013 we may tend to overlook its major moral impact and benefit to the giver. Maimonides is putting insight into practice: Giving is transformational to the giver not just the recipient. How it\u2019s done, how it\u2019s prioritized, its goals, when it\u2019s given, etc.\nWe have another principle: \u201cHa\u2019adam nifal cfi p\u2019ulosav\u201d: Loosely: Man becomes what he does. Giving in an elevated fashion will not only help the recipient in the most ideal way, but the giver will be uplifted as well. Maimonides elsewhere teaches that it is preferable for tzedakah to be given multiple times vs. just give it all at once \u2013 again \u2013 the action upon the giver is valuable \u2013 this is not just a transaction for the benefit of the recipient.",

Dittmer, Wilfrid Laurier UniversityFollow\nManuel Riemer, Wilfrid Laurier UniversityFollow\nThis article argues for the participation of community psychology in issues of global climate change. The knowledge accumulated and experience gained in the discipline of community psychology have great relevance to many topics related to the environment. Practitioners of community psychology could therefore make significant contributions to climate change mitigation. To illustrate this assertion, we describe an education project conducted with youth engaged in a community-based environmental organization. This initiative was motivated by the idea that engaged and critically aware youth often become change agents for social movements. Towards this purpose, rather than using mass marketing strategies to motivate small behavior changes, this project focused intensively on a few youth with the vision that these youth would also influence those around them to rethink their environmental habits. This project was influenced by five community psychology concepts: stakeholder participation, ecological and systems thinking, social justice, praxis, and empirical grounding. In this article we discuss the influence of these concepts on the project\u2019s outcomes, as measured through an evaluative study conducted to assess the impacts of the project on the participating youth in terms of their thinking and action. The contributions of community psychology were found to have greatly impacted the quality of the project and the outcomes experienced by the youth.\nThis work is licenced under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-No Derivative Works 3.0 US (CC-BY-NC-ND-3.0 US) licence.\nDittmer, L.D., & Riemer, M.

Winning projects include research into quantum cryptography, and an effort to better understand the process by which life begins, when zygotes form after conception.\nMost foreign-born grantees were already based in the host country before winning their grants, which is typical. The number of researchers moving to the UK with an ERC grant has fallen since 2016, the year of the Brexit referendum.\nAlthough Switzerland and Norway are not in the EU, they are associate members of Horizon 2020. Whether researchers in the UK will be able to continue to apply for ERC funding after Brexit remains undecided, as do the future rules for British researchers who want to work in the EU, and vice-versa.\nHorizon 2020 will expire at the end of that year and is due to be replaced by Horizon Europe.",

The findings, which have important implications for global climate change, suggest that intensifying winds in the region may be increasing the turbulence of the current, rather than increasing its flow rate.\nUsing measurements collected during three scientific cruises to the Agulhas Current, the Indian Ocean's version of the Gulf Stream, researchers estimated the long-term transport of the current leveraging 22 years of satellite data. They found the Agulhas Current has broadened, not strengthened, since the early 1990s, due to more turbulence from increased eddying and meandering.\nOne of the strongest currents in the world, the Agulhas Current flows along the east coast of South Africa, transporting warm, salty water away from the tropics toward the poles. The Agulhas, which is hundreds of kilometers long and over 2,000-meters deep, transports large amounts of ocean heat and is considered to have an influence not only on the regional climate of Africa, but on global climate as part of the ocean's global overturning circulation.\n\"Changes in western boundary currents could exacerbate or mitigate future climate change,\" said Lisa Beal, a UM Rosenstiel School professor of ocean sciences and lead author of the study. \"Currently, western boundary current regions are warming at three times the rate of the rest of the world ocean and our research suggests this may be related to a broadening of these current systems.\"\nPrevious studies have suggested that accelerated warming rates observed over western boundary current regions, together with ongoing strengthening and expansion of the global wind systems predicted by climate models relate to an intensification and pole-ward shift of western boundary currents as a result of man-made climate change.\n\"To find decades of broadening, rather than intensification, profoundly impacts our understanding of the Agulhas Current and its future role in climate change,\" said study co-author Shane Elipot, a UM Rosenstiel School associate scientist. \"Increased eddying and meandering could act to decrease poleward heat transport, while increasing coastal upwelling and the exchange of pollutants and larvae across the current from the coast to the open ocean.\"\nThis paper analyzed data collected during the \"Agulhas Current Times-Series\" experiment, led by Beal and funded by the National Science Foundation. The experiment produced continuous measurements of the Agulhas Current to better understand how the oceans are changing due to climate change.\nThe study, titled \"Broadening not strengthening of the Agulhas Current since the early 1990s,\" was published November 9, in the Advance Online Publication of the journal Nature. The authors of the study are Beal and Elipot. DOI: 10.1038/nature19853.

        "title": "Jack Kirby\u2019s Estate Sues Disney/Marvel | ScreenRant",
        "raw_content": "Jack Kirby\u2019s Estate Sues Disney/Marvel\nIn a move the reeks of opportunism and greed, Jack Kirby's Estate (a.k.a. his family) have hired Intellectual Property Lawyer Marc Toberoff to sue Disney/Marvel, Sony, Universal, 20th Century Fox and Paramount Pictures in an attempt to reclaim copyright ownership of the characters their late father Jacob Kurtzberg created. You may know his name better as Jack Kirby and you are most familiar with his iconic and highly popular comic book creations, The Fantastic Four, Captain America, the X-Men, Iron Man, Thor, The Hulk and The Silver Surfer.\nThanks to the guys over /Film for sharing this with us and to Rich Johnston at Bleeding Cool and Nikki Finke at Deadline Hollywod who seem to have gotten the drop on this breaking news. This is not the first lawsuit we've seen involving a comic book creator's estate vs. the current owner and publisher; Just recently we reported and discussed WB/DC's fight with the heirs of Jerry Siegel and Jerry Schuster over the rights to Superman.\nThe Siegel/Shuster heirs have been successful in their legal pursuit to some degree; they now have full access to Superman's origins with many thanks going to their superstar lawyer (you guessed it) Marc Toberoff. What they are going to do with the just the origins of Superman remains a mystery to me, because after the countless retellings of Superman's beginnings, I'm pretty sure we weren't going to see that story again anytime soon.\nBack to Jack Kirby: His Estate is currently suing and sending termination of copyrights notifications to each of the big studios that have involvement with any of characters Kirby created. The rest of this article is background information on Jack Kirby and my own observations and opinions. I am not a copyright lawyer, nor do I claim to have extensive background knowledge on U.S. Copyright Laws; so if you see something I misinterpreted, please enlighten me.\nThis isn't the first time Kirby and Marvel haven't seen eye to eye on things. In a very detailed account over at The Comic Journal, Marvel was in a major dispute with Kirby during much of the 80s, regarding his work from the 60s and 70s. At the end of the day (and after Will Eisner got involved), Marvel reluctantly agreed to give Kirby back 1900 pages of his work. That seems like a lot, but it's actually less than 25% of what Kirby had done.\nKirby was the first illustrator hired when Jerry Iger and Will Eisner formed Eisner & Iger Studios in the 1930s. Until 1978, when the copyright laws were changed, most if not all of the comic creators hired artists under a \"work-for-hire arrangement\". In other words: artists didn't own the rights to whatever they were paid to draw. The same thing is still done today in other business models - electronics and programming are two of the biggest examples.\nWhen a programmer working for Microsoft writes a new program and it turns into the major code behind a new piece of Microsoft software, that programmer doesn't own the rights to his code. He was paid by Microsoft to write it and has already been fairly compensated for his time and effort. He doesn't have the right to sue once that program starts making millions of dollars, just because he is jealous.\nI don't claim to know the copyright laws inside and out, but to me it would seem pretty simple: If Jack Kirby was hired under those aforementioned circumstances, then any characters he created should not be his to own. Sure, he will always get \"creative credit\" for coming up with them in the first place, but it's not like he thought them up in his garage and then Marvel came along and stole them in the night. From what I understand, Kirby was paid fairly to create those Marvel characters and without the company publishing his work, he would not have gotten them off the ground. Of course the reverse could be (and likely will be) argued - that Kirby created the most iconic characters in Marvel's repertoire and without him they would have died a slow comic death.\nTags: iron man, x-men, fantastic four, x-men 4, the incredible hulk, captain america, thor, iron man 3",

        "raw_content": "Home / Oklahoma Closing Achievement Gap for Minorities in AP and SAT Scores\nOklahoma Closing Achievement Gap for Minorities in AP and SAT Scores\nParticipation on the SAT among minority students in Oklahoma has increased significantly over the past five years. At the same time, Oklahoma students continue to post SAT scores that are higher than the national average across all subgroups.\nRepresentatives from College Board\u2019s Southwestern Regional Office delivered the SAT and other test scores to the State Department of Education in a recent meeting.\nThe results show that SAT participation by American Indian students has increased 9.6 percent since 2012 and 22.6 percent since 2009. African-American student participation grew by 2.5 percent since 2012 but since 2009 it has increased by 36.7 percent, while participation by Hispanic students increased 5.5 percent since 2012 and 10 percent from 2009.\nMeanwhile, Oklahoma\u2019s mean scores continue to exceed the national mean scores across all sub-groups, with 569 in critical reading vs. 491 nationally; 565 in mathematics vs. 503 nationally; and 544 in writing vs. 480 nationally. Math scores were up one percentage point and writing scores up two percentage points with no change in critical reading scores from 2012.\n\u201cI\u2019m encouraged by these results. It is a goal of mine to close the achievement gap that exists in Oklahoma\u2019s minority student population,\u201d State Superintendent of Public Instruction Janet Barresi said. \u201cThese participation rates and scores show that we are achieving this goal. These numbers also indicate that our students who take the SAT are being better prepared in Oklahoma schools for the rigors of college and career.\u201d\nThe College Board also gathers information on students engaged in Advanced Placement course work. Oklahoma saw an increase in the number of students taking Advanced Placement courses and scoring 3 or better on AP exams during the 2012-2013 school year. Similar results exist among the state\u2019s minority students. A score of 3 or better on an AP exams qualifies a student for college credit while still in high school.\nOverall participation in AP in Oklahoma is up 4.4 percent and performance is up 3.9 percent. Participation among American Indian students is up 7.5 percent while those scoring 3 to 5 on exams is up 12.6 percent. Participation among Asian students is up by 6.6 percent with performance up 12.9 percent. African-American student participation also is up by 13.5 percent with 26.7 percent more students achieving a score of 3 to 5 over one year ago. Hispanic student participation is up 32.1 percent with 18 percent showing improved performance over the 2012 scores.\nSuperintendent Barresi said, \u201cIt is a challenge to close these achievement gaps but due to our work in Oklahoma schools with the AVID program and our partnership with the National Math and Science Initiative, we have made great progress in the last few years. I congratulate all Oklahoma students and teachers who have worked hard to improve achievement on these exams\u201d Both the AVID program and NMSI Initiative promote increased student participation in AP coursework.\nAlso, of significance is that during the past school year participation on the PSAT/NMSQT among sophomores increased by almost 44 percent, overall. An impressive increase in participation among sophomore minority students also was reported, with an increase of 34.8 percent among American Indian students, 29.4 percent among Asian students, 65.7 percent among African-American students and 83.8 percent among Hispanic students.\nThe PSAT/MMSQT predicts how sophomores and juniors are expected to score on the SAT and determines National Merit Scholarship eligibility. The PSAT also shows AP Potential, a student\u2019s likelihood to achieve success in an AP course.\nCollege Board representatives said the increase in students taking this test should reflect in better college admission scores and show an increase in the number of students taking Advanced Placement courses.\nThe representatives said fee waivers exist for qualifying students taking the SAT and PSAT. Parents should check with counselors at their local schools to determine eligibility for a fee waiver.\nIn closing, Barresi said it is imperative that more students have access to Advanced Placement coursework and exams as this is the best way to ensure high school graduates are prepared for college, workforce training or a career.",

        "raw_content": "Home / OKTOY Blog: The Chi Mei Museum\nOKTOY Blog: The Chi Mei Museum\nIn recent visits to high school orchestras around our state, I have been sharing this story from March 26, 2013. It is the top musical experience of my life:\nI was in Tainan, Taiwan, traveling with the band Horseshoe Road as part of our American Music Abroad tour. In the audience of our last performance were administrators from the Chi Mei Museum, and they wanted to give us a VIP tour of the museum that next day. Chi Mei is a Chinese billionaire who invests, among other things, in fine art and has the largest collection of rare violins in the world. Recently, the museum moved to its new Taj Mahal inspired building, but we arrived upon a nondescript six-story box in the middle of the industrial Chi Mei electronic-components factory. Driving up, there are replicas of several major sculptures, including David, Venus de Milo and the hauntingly beautiful Pieta.\nWe had high hopes that we might play a Stradivarius violin in the antique instrument gallery. Instead, we were taken straight to a double-steel-door vault, a room about half the size of a 30-seat classroom. It was lined, floor to ceiling with nearly 1,000 violins in cork-lined cubbies. The violin curator took us straight to a wall of Stradavari, Guarneri and Amati violins. Within 15 seconds, we saw the oldest known cello, viola and violin still in existence. In 30 seconds, he pulled out the oldest known Amati violin, ca. 1560, and handed it to us to play. Andrea Amati (1505-1577) is the father of the modern violin whose design remains basically unchanged almost 500 years later. We asked if we should wash our hands, and the curator just laughed.\nThe person responsible for acquiring and maintaining this world-class collection is Mr. Dai-Ting Chung, Curator of Stringed Instruments for the Chi Mei Culture Foundation. \u201cYou just say my name when you looking for violin. Everyone know who I am.\u201d As our shock continued, he started pulling out the Guarneri violins. The first was Niccolo Paganini\u2019s violin, made by Giovanni Guarneri (father to the more famous Guarneri del Ges\u00fa). For readers unfamiliar with Paganini, he was the premiere violinist of the nineteenth century, composing works so virtuosic that only he could play them. Fittingly, Dai-Ting handed over a bow used by Jascha Heifetz, a premier violinist of the 20th century and one of the first to make master recordings of Paganini\u2019s works. It was surreal.\nUnfortunately, the five \u201cStrads\u201d [by the most notorious Antonio Stradivarius (1644-1737)] were out on a photo shoot. Of equal quality and value are the instruments of Guarneri del Ges\u00fa (1698-1744). Dai-Ting brought those out next. He spoke of a purchase he made in one day, saying the decision was very sudden, and he had to ask his billionaire boss permission to make the deal. He needed approval to spend $32 million\u2026for two violins. At this point I was no longer nervous and easily settled upon my favorite instrument: the 1744 Guarneri del Ges\u00fa \u201cOle Bull\u201d (recently purchased for a cool $16 million). It sounded exactly the same across the entire instrument, whether singing high up the E-string or belting a low open G. It was the first violin that I just stopped playing to catch my breath and think about what was happening. It was so beautiful, unmatched on the day, and I wish I played it longer. Ten minutes later, I pulled it out again on my own just to have one more ride!\nMost people do not realize the value and importance of the bow, that two-pound stick that is the birth of any violin\u2019s sound. When I asked about bows, Dai-Ting opened a case of over $2 million worth of bows. He had twelve made by Fran\u00e7ois Tourte (1747-1835), the father of the modern bow as we still know it today. There were eight by Dominique Peccatte (1810-1874), a contemporary of Tourte\u2019s. We played Fritz Kreisler's bow (another giant among 20th century violinists), and used a self-rehairing concept steel-composite bow made by Vuillame.\nDai-Ting showed us the best specimens of each maker, 400-year-old violins that had never cracked. He allowed us a few pictures though I regret we didn't make it out with a picture of him...he moved too fast! On our way out, near the entrance to the vault was a violin \u201cfamily tree\u201d poster that I've seen before, including important violins and makers from the 1540s to present. On it were four blue dots, marking the four violins on that list not yet in the collection. I am not sure what to make of a day where I played nearly a billion dollars-worth of instruments. The closest I've come to this musical experience was the first time I conducted in Carnegie Hall on the same stage as Tchaikovsky and Bernstein. I often try and recall each moment of our half hour in the Chi Mei violin vault, knowing I must return someday.\nTwitter @PeterMarkes",

Hence, the focus is on a) agency\u2014protests by the poor, and practical self-help endeavors; b) poor-on-poor violence, theft, the unequal allocation of food within families, and also cannibalism; c) accommodation, including 'souperism,' conversion to obtain food from evangelicals; and d) exploitation of the poor by people who were not themselves much better off. Central to the book are accounts of the Famine collected from survivors and their children. As such, it is a 'whispered history,' attentive to that of which the poor spoke, albeit quietly, and it bears comparison to recent work on China\u2019s Great Famine (Zhou Xun) and reflections on ethics in extremis (Primo Levi).\nEconomic History; European History; Folklore and Folklife",

This cylinder block is driven to rotate about its axis of symmetry by an integral shaft that is, more or less, aligned with the pumping pistons (usually parallel but not necessarily). Mating surfaces. One end of the cylinder block is convex and wears against a mating surface on a stationary valve plate. The inlet and outlet fluid of the Dansion P110 series pump P110-02R5C-W10-00 pass through different parts of the sliding interface between the cylinder block and valve plate. The valve plate has two semi-circular ports that allow inlet of the operating fluid and exhaust of the outlet fluid respectively. Protruding pistons. The pumping pistons protrude from the opposite end of the cylinder block. There are numerous configurations used for the exposed ends of the pistons but in all cases they bear against a cam. In variable displacement units, the cam is movable and commonly referred to as a swashplate, yoke or hanger. For conceptual purposes, the cam can be represented by a plane, the orientation of which, in combination with shaft rotation, provides the cam action that leads to piston reciprocation and thus pumping. The angle between a vector normal to the cam plane and the cylinder block axis of rotation, called the cam angle, is one variable that determines the displacement of the pump or the amount of fluid pumped per shaft revolution. Variable displacement units have the ability to vary the cam angle during operation whereas fixed displacement units do not. Reciprocating pistons. As the cylinder block rotates, the exposed ends of the pistons are constrained to follow the surface of the cam plane. Since the cam plane is at an angle to the axis of rotation, the pistons must reciprocate axially as they precess about the cylinder block axis. The axial motion of the pistons is sinusoidal. During the rising portion of the piston's reciprocation cycle, the piston moves toward the valve plate. Also, during this time, the fluid trapped between the buried end of the piston and the valve plate is vented to the pump's discharge port through one of the valve plate's semi-circular ports - the discharge port. As the piston moves toward the valve plate, fluid is pushed or displaced through the discharge port of the valve plate. Effect of precession. When the piston is at the top of the reciprocation cycle (commonly referred to as top-dead-center or just TDC), the connection between the trapped fluid chamber and the pump's discharge port is closed. Shortly thereafter, that same chamber becomes open to the pump's inlet port. As the piston continues to precess about the cylinder block axis, it moves away from the valve plate thereby increasing the volume of the trapped chamber. As this occurs, fluid enters the chamber from the pump's inlet to fill the void. This process continues until the piston reaches the bottom of the reciprocation cylinder - commonly referred to as bottom-dead-center or BDC. At BDC, the connection between the pumping chamber and inlet port is closed. Shortly thereafter, the chamber becomes open to the discharge port again and the pumping cycle starts over. Dansion P110 series pump P110-02R5C-W10-00 are used to power the hydraulic systems of jet aircraft, being gear-driven off of the turbine engine's main shaft, The system used on the F-14 used a 9-piston pump that produced a standard system operating pressure of 3000 psi and a maximum flow of 84 gallons per minute. They are also used in some pressure washers. For example Dansion P110 pump has several models powered by axial piston pumps with three pistons. Axial reciprocating motors are also used to power many machines. They operate on the same principle as described above, except that the circulating fluid is provided under considerable pressure and the piston housing is made to rotate and provide shaft power to another machine. A common use of an axial reciprocating motor is to power small earthmoving plant such as skid loader machines. Another use is to drive the screws of torpedoes.

        "raw_content": "Knibb Leaves Legacy Despite Heartbreaking Finish in Boston\nBOSTON, Mass. \u2013 Melissa-Maree Farrington opened her first ACC Indoor Track & Field Championships appearance with the fastest 60-meter hurdle performance of her career and closed it with her fastest 800, propelling the junior transfer to a runner-up finish in the pentathlon for Florida State\u2019s first points of the meet.\nFarrington recorded a lifetime-best total of 4,082 points \u2013 the second-highest total in FSU history \u2013 to move into 16th-place nationally. Teammate Grete Sadeiko was seventh with 3,983 points to get the Noles off and running Thursday at the Reggie Lewis Center.\nShortly after Farrington and Sadeiko closed out the pentathlon with career-best 800\u2019s, Sasha-Ann Lebert completed the finest weight throw series of her career with a third-place finish. Her fourth lifetime-best mark of the night \u2013 20.96 meters (68-9.25) \u2013 was two centimeters off the school record and is now tied for the 13thnationally.\nCapping a big opening night for the Seminole women, the distance medley relay team of Georgia Peel, Shaquania Dorsett, Chelsea Jarvis and Bridget Blake ran 11:13.34 \u2013 the ninth-fastest time in program history \u2013 to finish second to Clemson.\nWith a 24-point first day haul \u2013 one of their most productive opening nights in the championship meet\u2019s current format \u2013 the Seminoles will carry the team lead into Friday\u2019s competition, ahead of No. 16 Duke and Louisville, who are tied for second with 15 points.\n\u201cThe women refuse to believe the pre-meet rankings,\u201d FSU coach Bob Braman said. \u201cThey\u2019re competing to win the title. I\u2019m proud of our focus and preparation. The assistant coaches have done a fantastic job.\u201d\nThe Seminole women, who have not finished lower than second over the past seven seasons, came into the meet unranked and behind four ACC teams currently ranked among the top 18 nationally.\nNot to be completely outshined on the opening night, the Florida State men\u2019s distance medley relay team \u2013 not projected to score \u2013 authored a gutty sixth-place finish. With senior Zak Seddon\u2019s monster leadoff 1200-meter leg setting the tone, teammates Ricardo Roy, Matt Butler and Harry Mulenga brought the baton around in 9:45.46 \u2013 the third-fastest time in program history.\n\u201cI was real proud of the men\u2019s DMR,\u201d Braman added. \u201cInjuries to our 400 and 800 legs led us to substitute a couple of Florida high school products who came to FSU without any scholarship assistance. Ricardo Roy and Matt Butler ran with their hair on fire and filled in like champions for us.\u201d\nThe only other member of the FSU men\u2019s team in action Thursday was freshman Dante Newberg, who put up 2,708 points on the opening day of the heptathlon. Newberg, who got things going with a lifetime-best in the 60-meter dash (7.17), will begin day 2 in 13th place.\n\u201cDante acquitted himself well in his ACC debut,\u201d Braman said. \u201cThe moment wasn\u2019t too big for him as he was near his collegiate-best in nearly every event today. He has a chance to rally and score tomorrow.\u201d\nStill, the opening night belong to the Seminole women, who followed Farrington\u2019s cue when the Nebraska transfer popped off with a career-best time of 8.34 in the 60-meter hurdles to take the lead after one event. It didn\u2019t hurt that her father, Kelvin Farrington, made the trip to Boston from Sydney, Australia.\n\u201cHaving my dad here really pumped me up and excited me and I raced for him in the hurdles, and also coach [Brandon] Hon who has really helped me and shown belief,\u201d Farrington said. \u201cI just wanted to kick it out of the park.\u201d\nFarrington flirted with her all-time best in the high jump, clearing 1.71 meters (5-7.25), to hold on to the lead through two events. Sadeiko, the runner-up in the pentathlon last season, hung around the top of the leaderboard all day as well, but her title hopes took a hit when she managed to clear only 1.68 in the high jump.\nAfter slipping into third place following the shot put, Farrington moved into second with the second-best long jump of the competition (5.83m/19-1.50); within 99 points of Duke\u2019s Karli Johonot the eventual champion. Sadeiko had the third-best mark with a leap of 5.74.\nFarrington and Sadeiko worked together in the closing 800, finishing with indoor-best times of 2:24.51 and 2:25.18, respectively, and shared a congratulatory embrace afterward. Farrington\u2019s five-event total moved her \u2013 at least at the time \u2013 into 16th place nationally, the last qualifying spot for the NCAA Championships in two weeks.\n\u201cMelissa was simply fantastic,\u201d Braman said. \u201cA silver in her ACC debut is pretty special. She\u2019s firmly on the bubble to go to Nationals. Her hurdles performance was a big one. I\u2019m glad we entered her in the open hurdles as well.\u201d\n\u201cThe biggest thing about the multis is consistency,\u201d Farrington said. \u201cThere are going to be events where you do great and there are going to be events where you do bad. That\u2019s life. I was happy with how I handled myself after each event. I just moved on to the next, no matter how good or bad it went, and I can\u2019t complain with how it went overall. I know there\u2019s a lot of room for improvement. I hope I get another chance indoors in Alabama.\u201d\nConsistency has been Lebert\u2019s calling card all year and Thursday night\u2019s weight throw competition was no exception. The graduate student and transfer from Florida A&M came into the meet as the No. 5 seed, behind four ACC competitors ranked in the top 17 nationally. Lebert, who had never cracked the 20-meter barrier, launched her opening effort 20.90 meters.\nIt was the first of four 20-meter throws out of five marks, capped by her fifth-attempt 20.96 bomb which moved her into 13th place nationally and in line for an NCAA berth.\n\u201cI\u2019m so thankful for the moment right now,\u201d Lebert said. \u201cI\u2019m excited and proud of where I came from and where I am now. Hard work does pay off and I\u2019m thankful for my coach, Dorian Scott, pushing me non-stop and always believing in me.\n\u201cIt\u2019s a great feeling and I\u2019m so excited for the opportunity and I\u2019m glad I was able to contribute to my team\u2026It would mean a lot to me to be at the national level for just one semester competing at Florida State.\u201d\n\u201cSasha was a tiger out there today,\u201d Braman said. \u201cShe twice exceeded her lifetime best by a full meter. Coach Scott did a great job of peaking her at the right time. We\u2019re hoping she gets another shot in 2 weeks at the National meet.\u201d\nFSU\u2019s women\u2019s DMR was hoping to land a national qualifying mark, and while they came up short \u2013 the Noles registered the 16th-fastest time in the nation, but needed to crack the top 12 \u2013 it wasn\u2019t due to a lack of effort. Peel (3:27.75), Dorsett (54.07) and Jarvis (2:05.99) had the Noles step-for-step with top-seeded Clemson through the first three legs, and Blake (4:45.54) pushed the Tigers\u2019 anchor to the limit before settling for silver.\n\u201cIt was a great job by our women\u2019s DMR,\u201d Braman said, noting that the Noles came into the meet as the No. 4 seed. \u201cThey went for the win and easily handled two top 10 nationally-ranked teams [Notre Dame and Duke].\u201d\nOn the men\u2019s side, Seddon (3:00.95), Roy (48.62) and Butler (1:51.84) had the Noles firmly in the hunt through the 1200, 400 and 800 opening legs. Handling the anchor, Mulenga ran the 1600 right at his lifetime-best, but could not make up any ground as the top three teams were anchored in 3:57 or faster.\nStill, it was quite a performance for a patchwork unit, which at full strength, was the No. 9 seed entering the meet.\nFriday\u2019s action will feature the talented tandem of Seminole women\u2019s long jumpers, Der\u2019Renae Freeman and Jogaile Petrokaite, and Stefan Brits in the men\u2019s long jump. The full slate of action will also include finals in the men\u2019s and women\u2019s high jump and the completion of the heptathlon. A complete schedule of qualifying rounds in all other events is also on tap.\nESPN3 will provide a live stream of the action from 5-8 p.m. and you can keep pace with the Seminoles via Twitter @FSU_Track. Live results will also be available at http://noles.co/1UlZNnJ.",

        "title": "The Fragility of the VA \u2013 SFTT",
        "raw_content": "The Fragility of the VA\nI just started reading Antifragile: Things That Gain With Disorder by Nassim Taleb. For those who may not be familiar with Mr. Taleb, he is Professor of Risk Engineering at New York University\u2019s Polytechnic Institute and the author of the highly acclaimed The Black Swan.\nNow it may seem a bit incongruous to examine the Department of Veteran Affairs (the \u201cVA\u201d) through the eyes of Nassim Taleb, but there are a number of clear signs that the VA is a BIG and IMPORTANT institution that has lost its way. In effect, the VA is FRAGILE.\nFound below is a superficial but effective video summary of Antifragile, which describes the process to analyze the fragility, robustness or antifragility of \u201calmost everything about our world.\u201d\nIn Mr. Taleb\u2019s remarkable book, he joyfully examines the human body, science, biological and economic systems, business, medicine, regulation and even psychiatric well-being from the three types of exposure: fragile, robust and antifragile.\nWithout belaboring the point, there are many examples which clearly demonstrate that the VA is \u201cfragile\u201d if not broken. In fact, one could argue that the system is already in terminal decline propped up by self-serving bureaucrats to effectively deny proper medical care to our Veterans.\nWhile this conclusion is seen through the lens of Nassim Taleb in Antifragile, all one needs to do to reach a similar conclusion is to scan the countless unheeded GAO reports citing the failings of the VA or pour over the numerous Congressional hearings on the VA. True reform of the VA has simply become a platform to promote self-serving sound-bites by politicians and VA bureaucrats.\nI will focus on just a few observations from Mr. Taleb\u2019s book which \u2013 in my opinion \u2013 makes the case:\nSFTT has long argued that prescribing potentially lethal prescription drugs to Veterans with PTSD is both ineffective and dangerous. Consider this position under the optics of Mr. Taleb:\n\u201d . . . only resort to medical techniques when the health payoff is very large (say, saving a life) and visibly exceeds its potential harm . . . Otherwise, in situations in which the benefits of a particular medicine, procedure, or nutritional or lifestyle modification appear small \u2013 say aiming for comfort \u2013 we have a large potential sucker problem.\u201d\nSadly, our brave Veterans and Jane and John Doe Public have been suckered big time by the VA.\nMr. Taleb effectively describes the propensity of the VA to prescribe drugs rather than promote other alternative therapy programs. He goes on to say that \u201c. . . pharmaceutical companies are under financial pressures to find diseases and . . . and are looking for disease among healthier and healthier people, lobbying for reclassification of conditions, and fine-tuning sales tricks to get doctors to overprescribe.\u201d\nDoesn\u2019t Dr. David Xavier Cifu fit the bill as an effective lobbyist for the pharmaceutical industry? Unless I misunderstand, Dr. Cifu is suggesting that we should treat military personnel with concussions (or worse) with drugs and get them back to duty as quickly as possible. His argument is based on his own personal experiences of having six concussions and that this is the treatment he prescribes to his family.\nDespite being shunned by others in the medical profession, Dr. Cifu could be right. The real question we should all ask is this: What if Dr. Cifu is wrong? In effect, Dr. David Cifu \u2013 as a proxy for the VA \u2013 is effectively condemning thousands of Veterans to the same flawed treatment procedure.\nOne might ask what treating PTSD by the VA has to do Nassim Taleb\u2019s theory about Antifragility or Incerto? Actually, a great deal. Mr. Taleb would argue that fragile government bureaucracies like the VA are highly susceptible to arrogance and the inability to distance themselves from the predictive but flawed models they so vigorously defend.\nMr. Taleb would no doubt argue that it is better to have many \u201csmall\u201d therapy programs that can fail rather than expose ourselves \u2013 and the lives Veterans they claim to support \u2013 to a potentially catastrophic mis-diagnosis.\nWith its $180 billion budget, it is now time to unravel this bureaucratic behemoth in the hope that more robust and, hopefully, antifragile therapy can emerge from a decentralized health management approach for our Veterans. If we don\u2019t move in this direction soon, the lives of hundreds of thousands of brave Veterans and their loved ones could be negatively affected.\nSure, there will be mistakes, but we won\u2019t have all our eggs in one basket. Are you listening, Dr. Cifu? Let\u2019s spare the VA and the brave Veterans that rely on its services the Black Swan effect.",

        "raw_content": "From Fat to Fab and Fit in Five \u2013 What a Transformation!\nSometimes you come across a transformation that is mind blowing \u2013 Renz\u2019s transformation is just that. Her journey has spanned five years and she has gone from fat to fab and fit \u2013 what a transformation. Her Plastic Surgeon, Dr Justin Perron from Form & Function Clinic in Brisbane, helped her reach her \u2018happy with my body\u2019 point. I met Renz a few years ago in a closed FB group we are both a part of and can\u2019t wait to share her story with you. It\u2019s long, but it\u2019s been a big journey and we wanted to share it from the start. You can check out her transformation timeline at the end of this blog too.\nRenz is 33 (and she says going on 18), married with 3 kids, 2 dogs, 3 cats and 10 chickens; so as you can imagine she\u2019s pretty busy \u2013 oh, and she has a full-time job to boot, and is studying to become a personal trainer \u2013 phew \u2013 I\u2019m exhausted already!\nDuring high school, Renz suffered from bulimia, and at her lowest weight was 44kg \u2013 and for a 168cm tall young girl \u2013 in her own words \u2013 she was not well. Being the strong, determined woman she is, Renz got over it and at the age of 17 her bulimia was behind her and she seemed to be stable at 63kg. She got pregnant at the age of 18, and says she just ate and ate whatever she wanted, when she wanted. Her portion sizes she says \u201cwere huge\u201d.\nThree children later, and at the age of 26, Renz found herself in hospital with acute kidney failure. She had reached around 127kg. The doctor told her she wouldn\u2019t see her 30th birthday! He didn\u2019t mention her weight \u2013 it was very matter of fact \u2013 that was it. She spent the next year or so umming and ahhhing about weightloss surgery. Finally she decided to go ahead with having a gastric sleeve.\nRenz had the sleeve in March 2012 at 127kg. Most of her excess weight was lost in the first 6-12 months, and she says \u201cto be honest I looked a bit gaunt, and I\u2019d only gotten down to 72kg\u201d. Then she stopped going to the gym and got back up to around 85kg, and it wasn\u2019t until last year that decided to go back to the gym. That has been a godsend for her. She went back end of Feb 2016, lost an additional 20kg and sits happily today at around 67kgs.\nIn July 2014 Renz had a breast augmentation, because after all the weightloss she had only 5mm of breast tissue \u2013 that\u2019s what her plastic surgeon at the time told her. She decided to get 500cc high profile textured implants, which she felt was the perfect choice for her frame.\nMoving forward to 2016 Renz started on the research for the biggest part of her transformation. She had lost all the weight she was going to lose, she was toned up and fit, but the excess skin was \u201cgetting to my head\u201d as she puts it. She went back to the surgeon that did her breast augmentation, but decided \u201cit just didn\u2019t feel right, he wasn\u2019t focusing on what I wanted to achieve\u201d.\nRenz set about researching for a new surgeon. She is a member of a few closed Facebook groups and on the Plastic Surgery Hub Support Group, she came across Dr Justin Perron who was based in Brisbane. Although she originally was wanting to go with a surgeon on the Gold Coast which was closer to home, she was so impressed with Dr Perron that she decided to book a consult with him, and went prepared with a list of what she wanted to achieve.\nSurgery was booked, and in February 2017 Renz underwent a massive 7.5 hour surgery and had multiple procedures, which included:-\nCircumferential body lift\nLiposuction to thighs\nAfter the huge operation, Renz says she had to virtually learn to walk again. She said the first 4-5 weeks were absolute hell, but Dr Perron and his office staff were always reassuring and just a phone call away. She also says that the support she received from the Facebook groups was phenomenal and without the group she doesn\u2019t know if she would have managed, especially the day she came home from hospital.\nToday, Renz is 16 weeks post-op and life is glorious. She has always suffered from body dysmorphia and says \u201cI probably always will\u201d but she\u2019s happy with where she is at. She says \u201cwhen I start to doubt myself and my body I always have to think of where I started from\u201d. \u201cPeople sometimes have unrealistic expectations of what is possible to be achieved but after losing half of my weight, I understand I\u2019ll never look like a model, but I\u2019m fit, I\u2019m healthy, and yes, I still have my little breakdowns, but it\u2019s easier to break through nowadays\u201d.\nThe biggest change in the last 5 years for Renz she says is \u201cit\u2019s easier to shop. I can just grab anything of the rack and say yup that will fit, and it does.\u201d It\u2019s even easier to online shop too. The changes to her life are that she is happier as a person. She said that her friends and family and even work colleagues and customers all say she radiates confidence \u2013 something that she\u2019s never been able to do. \u201cAt the gym I take longer to do the training because I\u2019m checking my technique. I never would have been able to look at my body for so long before.\u201d She said \u201cI\u2019m excited about becoming a personal trainer, I hope I can make it to the end \u2013 it\u2019s not easy!\u201d\nGood luck and congratulations Renz, you rock and are a true inspiration!\nRENZ\u2019S TRANSFORMATION TIMELINE\nMar 2012 Gastric Sleeve (at 127kg)\nJuly 2014 Breast Augmentation (at 80kg)\nFeb 2017 Circumferential body lift, abdominoplasty, butt lift, thigh lift, thigh liposuction (at 73kg)\nIf you\u2019d like more information on Dr Justin Perron check out the blogs below or if you\u2019d like to arrange a consultation phone his clinic on (07) 3010 3300.\nLooking for a valuable source of information about your procedures?

This moment marked the beginning of a moving relationship between southern Africa\u2019s Anglican leader and Mandela until his death in 2013.\nJoin Archbishop Makgoba on his journey towards faith - from his boyhood in Alexandra Township, Johannesburg, as the son of a ZCC pastor, to Bishopscourt and spending time with Nelson Mandela. Archbishop Makgoba reveals his pastoral approach to this iconic figure, and writes eloquently about the influence Mandela had on his ministry to church and nation.\nWhat was praying with those nearest and dearest to Mandela like? What was Madiba\u2019s spirituality? In trying to answer these fascinating questions, Makgoba opens a window on to the spiritual life of South Africa.\nThe Most Revd Dr Thabo Makgoba is Anglican Archbishop and Metropolitan of the Anglican Church of Southern Africa. He became Archbishop of Cape Town on 31 December 2007, the youngest person ever to be elected to this position. In 2008 he was awarded the Cross of St Augustine, the second highest international award for outstanding service to the Anglican Communion, by the Archbishop of Canterbury. He is chair of the international Design Group for the Lambeth Conference in 2020.\nA riveting account of one young black South African who beat the odds to become head of the Anglican church and courageously holds the government\u2019s feet to the fire.\nA moving tribute to Madiba whom Archbishop Makgoba celebrates as an exemplar of the faith and courage which should inspire all those who would be makers of history!\n- Thabo Mbeki (former President of South Africa)\nArchbishop Makgoba was a pillar of strength in our spiritual lives during Madiba\u2019s last days. A true moral compass who brought calm and strength through his words.\n- Zelda la Grange (former private secretary to Nelson Mandela)",

But if the Germans had motives that differed from spiritual concerns, so did the pope. He was concerned about the Eastern church gaining too much influence in the Slavic provinces. Helping Constantine and Methodius would give the Roman Catholic church more power in the area. So after speaking to the brothers in the Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore, Pope Adrian II approved the use of Slavonic in services and ordained their pupils.\nConstantine never returned to Moravia. He died in Rome after assuming the monastic robes and the name Cyril on February 14, 1869. St. Cyril is buried in the Basilica of San Clemente in Rome. Legend tells us that his older brother was so griefstricken, and perhaps upset by the political turmoil, that he intended to withdraw to a monastery in Constantinople. Cyril's dying wish, however, was that Methodius return to the missionary work they had begun.\nTheir feast day is observed on February 14.",

(and Presidential trivia)\nYou know how when someone runs for President and loses, and they crawl off into their hole, only to be heard from rarely? I wish the entire party leadership would do that. Let me explain:\nHere\u2019s the list of the Presidential losers for the past three decades (not counting Carter and Bush 41):\nMitt Romney, John McCain, John Kerry, Al Gore, Bob Dole, Michael Dukakis, and Walter Mondale.\nAll of these guys crawled off and did not assume any kind of party leadership position. Some did commercials, some made movies about fake climate problems, and some just faded into obscurity.\nI wish the current party leadership would do that. I\u2019m looking at you, Karl Rove. I\u2019m looking at all the people who are at the head of the Republican party. They all need to go now, because they have failed. Promoting two moderate Republican candidates (with token conservative VP candiates) two elections in a row and losing should tell them this strategy DOES. NOT. WORK.\nOn another note, I found this website tonight. It shows you the vote tally (popular AND electoral) for every election from 1789 onward. For instance, did you know Henry Clay ran for President three times (1824, 1832, and 1844)? I thought it was interesting he didn\u2019t run in consecutive elections (like Ross Perot), but he took time off.\nI always thought that the Whig party was around from the beginning until the Civil war period when the Republican party started. Nope. The Whig party didn\u2019t come about until 1836, and only lasted until 1856. Twenty years.\nI also found it interesting that the southern states almost always voted Democrat until 1960 when Barry Goldwater turned the entire southern bloc (from LA over to GA) red. With very few exceptions, these states have voted Republican ever since.\nI think it\u2019s interesting that today we KNOW that the entire left coast (CA, OR, and WA) is going to vote Democrat, and yet it wasn\u2019t that long ago that it almost always voted Republican. As a matter of fact, with only four exceptions and not counting the FDR years (when the entire country went Democrat), California was red from 1988 all the way back to 1860. But they\u2019ve been blue since 1992.\nThis all makes me wonder what\u2019s going to happen in the future. Will our country continue to get more and more blue? Will something happen to change people\u2019s minds? Who knows (short answer: God does)?\nIn other news, evidently Puerto Rico had a referendum yesterday where they expressed their preference to become the 51st state. So there\u2019s that.",

        "raw_content": "February 7, 2018 \u00b7 by Eastern Health\t\u00b7 in Kudos!, Leading the Way, Making a Difference.\t\u00b7\n\u201cI\u2019ve worn glasses ever since I can remember. I\u2019d only take them off if I was playing softball or hockey,\u201d recalls Danny Barrett. \u201cBut I had to stop playing team sports when I was 12 or 13 because my vision got too bad. That was a big change in my life and it came at a time when it was developmentally hard, being a teenager.\u201d\nDanny Barrett, a participant in the Retinitis Pigmentosa study\nVision loss at a young age is often the reality for those afflicted with Retinitis Pigmentosa (RP), a rare degenerative eye disease that can be passed down through families. Characterized by a loss of cells in the retina \u2013 the light sensitive tissue that lines the back of the eye \u2013 symptoms typically include difficulty seeing at night and a loss of peripheral (side) vision.\nPeople with RP tend to lose their vision slowly over time, but the type and speed of vision loss varies from person to person. It also depends on the form of the condition they have.\nWhile some might not show symptoms until their early teens, many will say they\u2019ve been night blind since they can remember, could never see stars in the sky, could never play spotlight. In some cases, their poor vision affected their education and their ability to reach their full potential. Some are significantly visually challenged.\nNewfoundland and Labrador is unique because of the isolated population which results in mutations (changes in genes which everyone has) being clustered geographically. This means that genetic conditions such as RP, which are caused by mutations, are clustered in certain communities. Even in NL there are many different types of RP caused by different gene mutations.\nThis is where ophthalmologist and Eastern Health retina surgeon, Dr. James Whelan, comes in. He and geneticist, Dr. Jane Green, are at the helm of a natural history study that\u2019s tracking the progress of participants who have a specific form of Retinitis Pigmentosa.\nDr. James Whelan, ophthalmologist and retina surgeon\n\u201cI was always fascinated by gene therapy, how it might be possible to switch out a defective gene with a normal gene and potentially cure someone,\u201d says Dr. Whelan. \u201cWhen I came back home in 2000 and started working with patients, other general ophthalmologists around me said they\u2019d seen some RP patients and wondered if their condition genetically differed from that of others \u2013 and whether gene therapy could help. I thought it could.\u201d\nSeveral years later, Dr. Whelan saw a research paper from Sweden about a study involving patients with specific RP mutations. The retina images published in the article looked very similar to those of some of his own patients. He decided to reach out to geneticist Dr. Jane Green to see if there was any basis to his suspicion that some NL families had the same mutation, and to set up his own study.\nDr. Green had been compiling pedigrees on families in which there was a hereditary loss of sight since the 70\u2019s and was instrumental in providing study participants.\nIn 1978, she had partnered with ophthalmologist Dr. Gordon Johnson, who in his own practice had noted that RP often seemed to run in families. Together, they set up a weekly ocular genetics clinic at Health Sciences Centre, or the General Hospital as it was called then. They wanted to understand what conditions caused blindness in so many Newfoundland families.\nGeneticist Dr. Jane Green\nSometimes patients would tell them about family members still living in rural communities who had the same issue, so they\u2019d hold outreach clinics in those areas. Over time, they identified groups of people who shared the same symptoms.\nThe clinic ran until 1986, however little was known about the gene or genes that caused Retinitis Pigmentosa, let alone potential mutations. It wasn\u2019t until 2001 that the RLBP1 gene was identified as causing one type of RP in Sweden and also in one area of Newfoundland and Labrador.\nIn some cases, patients are diagnosed when they are toddlers. \u201cAt such a young age, it\u2019s sometimes difficult for parents to realize there is an issue,\u201d says Dr. Green. \u201cParents have said to me, \u2018I thought she was afraid of the dark,\u2019 or \u2018he always walked with his hand on the wall,\u2019 never realizing it was due to vision loss.\u201d\nDanny was one of those toddlers and was diagnosed when he was three, more than 45 years ago. \u201cIn my case, the first sign was night blindness. My mother told me I\u2019d get up in the night and take off running like little kids do, and I\u2019d run right into the wall.\u201d\nWhen Danny heard about the natural history study, he wanted in. \u201cI\u2019ve always loved cars and motorcycles. When I was younger and heard talk of a cure, I\u2019d say, \u2018I\u2019m getting myself this. I\u2019m getting myself that.\u2019 Now it\u2019s more about if they could find a cure, it would create independence for me. I\u2019d just like to be able to do the little things in life that most people take for granted \u2013 like taking a moonlit walk with my wife.\u201d\nAnd that\u2019s the aim of this natural history study \u2013 to garner enough evidence to follow-up with a treatment study \u2013 with the ultimate goal of providing gene therapy replacement as a potential cure for this disease.\nTo do that, questions about the study participants need to be answered, such as: How big a disability do they have? How progressive is the disease? What specific factors of their visual function does it affect? What is it about their disease that is changing and how can we influence that?\n\u201cWe need to have measurable variables,\u201d stresses Dr. Whelan, \u201cwhich means we do extensive testing on these patients to see what changes they experience and how fast those changes occur.\u201d\nInvolvement in the study is a serious commitment. Participants undergo four days of testing per year, which is broken down to two days, twice a year, not including travel time and time away from jobs, home and family.\n\u201cTesting can be quite intense,\u201d says Nurse Coordinator Krista Rideout. \u201cFor one test in particular, patients must patch their good eye at least 12 hours before their visit, and then sit in a dark room for hours while we a perform a test that measures how the eye adjusts during low levels of illumination.\u201d\nNurse Krista Rideout standing next to colour dome she uses during dark adaptation day testing\nThrough this testing, one of the things discovered about the mutation that is unique, is that these individuals have very abnormal dark adaptation. \u201cThey can\u2019t go from light to dark,\u201d says Dr. Whelan. \u201cSo if they\u2019re in a bright environment for a long time, they can\u2019t adjust to a darkened environment \u2013 it washes out their vision \u2013 which means they are essentially blinded. Even if our gene therapy just changed that for them, it would be very beneficial.\u201d\nRight now, ophthalmology, especially retinal diseases is at the forefront of gene therapy. Once they prove that gene replacement therapy works, the concept could be applied to other diseases.\n\u201cImagine if we could identify shortly after someone is born that they have this genetic defect; that we can intervene; that we might not only prevent damage from occurring, but may be able to cure the disease,\u201d Dr. Whelan adds. \u201cIt\u2019s potentially life-changing.\u201d\nDespite it all, Danny never let RP get him down, or stop him from doing what he wanted to do, and that includes taking part in the study. \u201cIf I could prevent some young man or woman from going through what I\u2019ve gone through, that would be great.\u201d \u25a0\nThis story was written by Robyn Lush, a communications specialist with Eastern Health.\nTags: blindness, caring, change, Cure, gene, gene replacement therapy, hope, provincial 2.Opthamology, research, Research 3.

I chose this movie because it is an excellent movie despite the fact that it falls into the horror genre and still delivers an excellent product that resembles a drama and psychological thriller\u2026\n\"Critique on Gothika\"\nDownload file to see previous pages Movie Critique on Gothika\nShe is paid a lot of money and to her, the patients are just crazy. She is doing her usually routine of a morning swim and working her normal case load but one day she travels down the highway and meets a woman in flames. She almost runs over this woman but has stopped the car to see what happened to her. The woman in flames is in turmoil. The next thing that the psychiatrist knew is that she is in a psych ward prison cell for the murder of her husband. The story revolves around trying to discover who murders this girl on the road and clearing her name. She is in a frantic battle with the psychiatric prison facility staff to clear her name. The psychiatrist clears both her and one of her main patients when she discovers that the patient was actually raped by one of the guards who is responsible in murdering the girl in flames and the many other girls at the ward. The guard and the psychiatrist's husband had been raping women for a long time in the facility. The story presented in this movie had so many twists and turns and interwoven pieces that it made for a great story while being a horror film. The characters in the story were portrayed wisely delivering an outstanding performance. Halle Berry is a remarkable actress in most movies she is in and she won an oscar in some of her film Monster's Ball so it is no surprise that she is capable of a brilliant performance. Halle Berry played the psychiatrist and she is incredibly rich and famous. It is important to recognize that if she was not famous, she would have still delivered a great performance because we see the flawless acting with an elegant flow. She is unlike any other actress because she draws her audience in effortlessly. She is incredibly beautiful but somehow conveys such an ordinary character position. Robert Downey Jr is also in the film and his role is more subdued but it still delivers quite an impact because it is Robert Downey Jr. When he is forced to go against Halle, we see a performance that is quite honest and genuine in its delivery. The prison guard has a poor performance only in the reason that I found he had an annoying persona and did not play evil enough like other people play evil. He is far from being an Anthony Hopkins type character from The Silence of the Lambs. Penelope Cruz plays crazy and beautiful extremely well and holds her own and goes beyond that in this film. Her acting ability is outstanding and her delivery of portraying most characters is quite powerful. The cinematography has quite an impact because the woman in flames is so tortured and is also quite good at acting. The flames and the blood scenes are quite remarkable in terms of how esthetically pleasing and horryifying they are all at the same time. The thunder storm on Halle's way home and the swim scene is incredible as well because we all like a good thunderstorm in a movie. The editing had quite an impact and I felt that the scenes that were in the movie delivered such an awesome film and nothing was left out. We see the many great qualities in this film with the editing job because there was nothing in it that needed to be added or left out. All the scenes belonged and brought the film to a position of greatness that we have to pay tribute to the editor for doing such a good job. The sound was good but not much more impressive as compared to any other film. We see the woman in flames screaming and the scenes where Halle has fits and outbursts in her reflection of memories ...Download file to see next pagesRead More\n(\u201cMovie Critique on Gothika Review Example | Topics and Well Written Essays - 2000 words\u201d, n.d.)\nRetrieved from https://studentshare.org/visual-arts-film-studies/1408504-movie-critique-on-gothika\n(Movie Critique on Gothika Review Example | Topics and Well Written Essays - 2000 Words)\nhttps://studentshare.org/visual-arts-film-studies/1408504-movie-critique-on-gothika.\n\u201cMovie Critique on Gothika Review Example | Topics and Well Written Essays - 2000 Words\u201d, n.d. https://studentshare.org/visual-arts-film-studies/1408504-movie-critique-on-gothika.\n2012 Movie Critique\n...?

        "raw_content": "It has been a wee while since I last posted. What can I say? It has been a busy and exciting few days, and our ears are still whistling from their bombardment by all kinds of Celtic and related music at the festival in Stornoway.\nBut first, I left you in the sauna in Ullapool, I think. After a very pleasant weekend there, we sailed on the Monday morning out towards the Summer Isles. Motoring for the first part until Loch Broom opened out, we set sail and tacked out to the west and then north-west, weaving in and out of the islands in a very nice WNW\u2019ly breeze. We had all sail set for a large part of the trip, which this summer has been an all-too-rare occurrence. It was around 15 miles as the crow flies, with some bonus miles added in the tacks, and we arrived at around 1600 in the sheltered anchorage on the NE side of Tanera Beg, a lagoon surrounded by smaller islets and skerries. The pilot book describes this as prone to strong tides and with a kelpy bottom, but we held very securely and had a very peaceful night. It would have been a perfect swimming spot had it not been for the hungry-looking jellyfish drifting about looking for fresh meat (and fresh it would have been, at still only 12 degrees).\nThe following morning we set off at a respectable hour to cross the Minch to Lewis once again, heading for one of the anchorages in the entrance to Loch Erisort. We had very light winds, so this was mostly a motor, with some sail assistance. Again we arrived at around 1600, and anchored in a very sheltered inlet convenient for the entrance to the loch. I decided that, having finished our Tesco loaf that morning, I would try my hand at baking a loaf from one of the bread mixes I had stocked up with in Oban. Well, it was not a resounding success, although we did get an edible loaf at the end of it. Unfortunately, I misread the instructions and added 150ml too much water, and ended up with a very sloppy dough. This took an awfully long time to rise, eventually persuaded to do so by placing it in the tin directly on top of the solid fuel stove, which by this time was well alight. In the interim, I decided that I needed to cool off, so for the first time this season I actually went swimming (after a careful jelly-check of course). The water was by now a balmy 12.6 degrees. Being the first dip, it took some gentle and gradual immersion, but I did eventually let go of the ladder and swim a couple of lengths of the boat before the numbness reached my torso, and then I even got back in for another couple of lengths. The best bit is always getting out and letting the air (and in this case the gentle rain) play on the tingling skin before retreating below into the warm fug created by the stove. The bread by now was ready for the oven finally, and we settled in for a quiet evening at anchor.\nThe next morning was a lazy one, but once we were up we set off under engine for Stornoway, about an hour and a half up the coast. We arrived to find the marina was already full, so were rafted alongside a very nice Seastream 45, who assured us that they were going nowhere in a hurry, as their starter motor was away for repair. After I dangled over the stern in the Bosun\u2019s chair to tighten up George\u2019s mountings, which had inexplicably come loose, we settled in for beer and nibbles, watching the local kids messing around in Picos and toppers across the harbour. Then we learned that the Seastream had their starter motor back, and would be leaving at 0900, leaving us on the inside of a raft against the piled jetty. We decided to move while the going was good, and ended up alongside the quay adjacent to the marina, a much more sheltered spot. This entailed tending the lines as the tide went down, but once that was done we were cosy. However, in the morning we were told that the fishing boats would want that spot for the bad weather coming in, so off we went again, this time to the pilot boat out on the commercial quays, where we were assured we would be safe and undisturbed. To be fair on the harbour staff, they were having to cope with a lot of yachts, like us in for the festival, as well as a larger than normal number of commercial movements, and they still offered service beyond what one would expect, happily running me out to get gas and coal from the local filling station.\nWe stayed alongside the pilot boat one night, enjoying the first night of the festival, but overnight the chop in the harbour picked up, and it started getting uncomfortable. We went to the festival again on Friday afternoon, taking in an excellent set from Qu\u00e9b\u00e9cois band Le Vent du Nord, but by the end of this at 1800, a squall had come through and I went to check on the boat. She was pitching violently, and the fwd mooring fairlead had pulled off the bulwark (note to Santa \u2013 through-bulwark fairleads for next season please), and I was not happy. Fortunately for us, a former Clipper yacht, Clyde Challenger, had berthed on Esplanade Quay, and lent herself perfectly to being our home for the night, so we shifted alongside them before heading back to the festival. On our return at about midnight, her crew invited us to join them for a dram, so it proved to be a late, but ultimately quiet, night.\nUnfortunately, Clyde Challenger were leaving in the morning, so we got up at 8 and shifted back to the pilot boat- by now far more peaceful as the wind was back in the west. A lazy morning followed our (final) move, followed by shopping in Tesco and then heading back to the festival for the final night.\nThere were a lot of great bands playing at HebCelt this year, but the highlights had to be Salsa Celtica on the first night, Le Vent du Nord, and on the final night in the more intimate Islands Stage, veteran acid folkies Shooglenifty, who showed the younger, brasher bands a thing or two.\nYesterday morning then was a prompt start at 0800 for the 60+ mile run to Plockton. We set off with a NE\u2019ly F3, and soon had all sail set running down towards the Mnch at 4-5 knots. We had to hand steer in these conditions, as George doesn\u2019t like steering downwind with the mizzen set, but by now it had stopped raining and was quite pleasant. We remained under sail until 1700, by which time we had Rona lighthouse abeam and the wind had gone right aft and light. We started the engine and peeled off the headsails, making 5-6 knots motorsailing with economical revs. By 2000 we were in the entrance to Loch Carron, handing the rest of our sail as we went up towards Plockton, picking up the mooring just before 2100.\nhttps://symeander.com/archive/pottering-in-the-far-north-and-music\">",

        "raw_content": "There are still marketers out there who use a certain kind of template for researching, organizing and launching campaigns. It\u2019s tried and true and the kind of routine that starts with a Monday morning cup of coffee and stretches to a Friday afternoon finish line.\nThey start by building a database and creating segments, get copywriters and designers to submit enough versions to run A/B tests and then study analytics to gain insights into what works and what doesn\u2019t.\nIt\u2019s a methodical process, designed to make sure the right campaign gets sent to the right customers in the right medium. The idea is to get the right pieces and tools in the right order before pulling the trigger. It\u2019s also a massive waste of time.\nIn a world where visitors to your site take about two seconds to decide if they\u2019ll stay and e-commerce purchases can be completed in under a minute, taking weeks or even months to move from idea to action sounds like something out of a museum of the history of marketing. The ancient history of marketing.\nTrends and ideas now arise in an instant and spread like wildfire before disappearing or being replaced by a new wave of tech-driven buzz. Consumers can appear around a brand in an instant, like a flash mob, before dispersing in a thousand directions just as quickly.\nA brand that needs a lot of time to change directions, like a ship turning around in the ocean, doesn\u2019t have a chance of keeping up.\nIn the digital age, marketers have to borrow a concept originally formulated by their colleagues in the IT department and be agile. And I don\u2019t mean \u201chave to\u201d like \u201cshould\u201d, but \u201cabsolutely, totally must\u201d. In the age of instant everything, marketers need a process for quickly prioritizing tasks and organizational tools that let them stop, reprogram and restart marketing engines as new information becomes available.\nBeing agile in marketing means the same thing as being physically agile on a playground\u2014it makes starting, stopping, changing directions and jumping around that much easier.\nLet\u2019s jump around a general overview of what agile marketing is all about.\nMoving at the speed of customers\nYou might already know that the entire concept of agile project management in marketing is borrowed from the world of software development. Around 2001 a group of innovators calling themselves the Agile Alliance began to construct alternatives to traditional waterfall software development processes. This method, which forced the various elements involved to be completed in a fixed, linear sequence, worked well in most cases but was not without its problems and inefficiencies.\nThe improvements made to the conventional strategy for software development quickly proved to be applicable to a variety of business environments. It didn\u2019t take long to see that the idea of going \u201cagile\u201d could be adapted to general management, marketing, manufacturing and to any number of subfields in these areas.\nWithin about four years of their first discussions of the idea, the Agile Alliance had started a revolution in every corner of the business world.\nWhen applied to marketing, the goals of agile practices are to improve the speed, predictability, transparency, and flexibility of marketing operations. It is essentially a strategy for marketing teams that focuses solely on achieving the most worthwhile goals while working collectively and iteratively.\nIt puts an emphasis on measuring results, making corrections and then measuring the results again to constantly improve. Agile thinking makes allowances for changing directions when things don\u2019t go according to plan or when new data necessitates a reset in strategy.\nAlso, by empowering small teams to make key decisions, the agile approach increases the speed that is crucial to responding to input from the market.\nWhether it\u2019s fine tuning a pitch or completely changing course, keeping up with today\u2019s customers means collecting data, reaching conclusions and reacting while organizations stuck in the old way of doing things are still deciding how many teams to create. If you\u2019re not agile, you\u2019ll soon be passed by someone who is.\nAnother central idea in the agile approach is the stress placed on working on the most important matters first. Agendas should be set according to what pushes the team ahead the most, not what happens to be next on a list that may or may not be relevant now. Agile marketing guides teams to focus their work on high-value projects or stages in a process, measure the impact of their work, and then constantly iterate with more improvements.\nAgile teams use a backlog, a prioritized to-do list, to track which parts of a job should be tackled next. This means that when team resources become available, they can be assigned\u2014or assign themselves\u2013to the next item on the list instead of having to start from zero and look over all the possible things they could work on.\nAlso, the list of items is dynamic and always subject to change. The agile approach can mean radically altering the list based on feedback if necessary. Executing a predetermined plan only makes sense if the assumptions behind the plan are still valid.\nCreating priorities is highly correlated with another practice in agile marketing\u2014working in short cycles to complete precisely defined projects.\nThis is obviously a marketing version of \u201csprints\u201d in the world of software development, where work flow charts are useful in mapping out the strategy needed to complete a given project in the time period assigned to it. Assigning priorities combined with short, focused and intense work devoted to separately defined jobs means faster and more measurable progress.\nAn interesting flip side to this methodology is the fact the prioritizing one task often necessarily means ignoring, at least temporarily, another. Tending to one \u201cgarden\u201d results in others just sitting there until they reach the top of the list.\nMaintaining the efficiency and discipline of an agile system sometimes means letting that other garden grow a little wild, at least until it becomes a higher priority than whatever is getting attention now. Don\u2019t make the mistake of thinking you can pay full attention to every weed growing in your company at the same time while still remaining agile.\nFour advantages of Agile Marketing\nHere are four of the most common immediate benefits of implementing an Agile mentality into a marketing team. The specifics will vary from industry to industry and every marketing department has its own unique chemistry but going Agile typically means seeing improvements in:\nNumbers don\u2019t lie and Agile marketing is all about letting the stats show the way. Everything is quantifiable and measurable. This means it\u2019s easy to identify the campaigns that get the best results and allocate resources accordingly, promoting a process of constant improvement and operational efficiencies.\nWhen teams have the authority to act and make decisions, a bias for action replaces passive participation. More engaged employees are happier, more satisfied in their jobs and contribute more.\nAgile transforms the culture of marketing teams. When smaller units have voices and input into strategies, integrating those contributions means discussing which bits and pieces fit best together.\nThe value of the ability to move quickly cannot be overstated. Focusing on defined goals in short cycles means energy and momentum can be more easily redirected if circumstances demand it. Responding to changes in the market doesn\u2019t take nearly as long when you\u2019re set up to pivot quickly.\nMore key aspects of agile marketing\nLet\u2019s touch on some other components of the agile view of organizing marketing efforts and how they can impact the performance of any team.\nThe occasional spectacular big gamble that pays off gets all the attention but success usually comes in small steps. Taking a huge leap of faith might look like an attractive option and it\u2019s tempting to imagine the praise you\u2019ll get for being so bold if it works out but the odds are against you if you\u2019re just guided by a gut feeling and crossed fingers.\nWith agile, it\u2019s about iterating and using feedback to inform which direction you take. Making your way one step at a time might not have the romantic flair of making a huge jump but at least you can be sure of each step you take.\nThe numbers don\u2019t lie. Everything can be tested, measured and quantified now and graphs can count for more than intuition. That doesn\u2019t mean that there\u2019s no room for the human qualities that machines can\u2019t copy (yet), but numbers, not feelings, should be your guide.\nAs a marketer, you will have plenty of opportunities to introduce your own special sauce into the mix but the main recipe should always be guided by hard data.\nMarketing is a team sport. When communication channels run vertically instead of horizontally, that\u2019s when problems start. If you maintain an environment where everyone is informed and can act based on that information, the whole organization benefits.\nBeing agile means being able to hop over barriers that used to divide one department from another and get everyone on the same page.\nFlexibility over rigid planning\nWe don\u2019t often get a chance to quote Mike Tyson in the world of marketing strategies, so we will take advantage of the opportunity to use his reply to a reporter\u2019s question about an upcoming opponent who had a \u201cplan\u201d to beat Tyson:\nWhen carefully designed and often expensive marketing plans get punched in the face by the reality of the marketplace, having the flexibility to quickly adapt and respond is key. Rigid plans implemented by multi-layered, complex teams mean the punches keep landing while a new plan slowly takes shape.\nWhen this happens, it\u2019s just a matter of time before the knockout blow comes. Don\u2019t get locked into a plan when reality is telling you something has to change.\nSo, does going Agile sound like a good move? Of course it does. There are many ways to make the switch and finding the right speed and degree for you will take some experimentation. Try some new ways of doing things, see what works and what doesn\u2019t and keep going from there. See \u2014even the process of going Agile is Agile!",

        "title": "9 Health Issues Linked to Vitamin D Deficiency | Miracles of Vitamin D3",
        "raw_content": "by Jeff T Bowles: Bestselling Amazon Author\nVitamin D is referred to as the sunshine vitamin. This is incorrect; it is not a vitamin in the sense that you must get it from your diet. You can get it from your diet, but you can also make it with your body when sun hits your skin. Vitamin D3 is actually a powerful hormone that controls at least 300 genes in your DNA and possible a many as 1,000 of our 20,000 total protein coding genes. A deficiency in Vitamin D can be linked to a large number of health issues, at least 100, mostly autoimmune diseases that are seen at a higher rate in women than men, and here are some of them:\nDiabetes: Individuals with diabetes have lower levels of Vitamin D compared to those with normal blood sugar, a 2015 study revealed. Vitamin D regulates insulin secretion thus balancing the body\u2019s blood sugar levels. Deficiency in Vitamin D puts the person at risk of developing diabetes and other metabolic disorders. Some people have suggested that longer term higher dose supplementation with Vitamin D3 seems to lower their blood sugar.\nCardiovascular diseases: A study conducted in 2009 concluded that individuals with significantly low levels of Vitamin D are at risk of cardiovascular diseases by more than 50%. As Vitamin D deficiency and heart diseases go hand in hand, people with extremely low levels of Vitamin D are at higher risk of fatal heart diseases than individuals with normal Vitamin D levels. Also, it has been found that higher dose Vitamin D3 supplementation is an excellent treatment for heart failure.\nAlzheimer\u2019s, Dementia, Schizophrenia: Mental health disorders such as dementia including its most common form, Alzheimer\u2019s disease, have been linked to Vitamin D deficiency in some studies involving older patients. In one study, lower levels of Vitamin D were associated with accelerated decline in cognitive functions and abnormalities in brain structure. Schizophrenia is also another mental health disorder that is strongly linked to Vitamin D deficiency in some studies conducted. Babies born to Vitamin D3 deficient mothers are at a much higher risk of being schizophrenic.\nObesity: According to a study published in 2000, obesity restricts the body\u2019s ability to utilize Vitamin D from both diet and sunlight since the fat cells attach to vitamins and fail to release them efficiently. This means that obese individuals are more likely to have Vitamin D deficiency compared to normal-weight people. It is interesting to note that since the 1980\u2019s when the public was advised to stay out of the sun and use strong sun-block, that obesity rates have skyrocketed. Many people report that taking higher doses of Vitamin D3 reduce their appetites and cause them to lose weight without much effort.\nDepression: Women with low Vitamin D levels are more likely to experience symptoms of depression, as revealed by a study published in 2015. There is hope, however, that supplements of Vitamin D might help, as a small study in 2012 revealed improvements in several women following treatment of Vitamin D deficiency. Other studies have shown that higher dosed of Vitamin D3 are much more effective than light therapy for combating SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder). There are anecdotal reports of people taking higher doses of Vitamin D3 being able to stop taking Prozac after being on it for many years. Some say that while Prozac makes you feel numb, Vitamin D3 makes you feel fantastic!\nLupus: A chronic inflammatory disease, lupus is frequently associated with deficiency in Vitamin D. A recent study review revealed that correcting vitamin deficiencies in lupus patients might aid in lessening the severity of the disease. I have heard from one reader of my book, a lady with lupus, that 10,000 IU per day of Vitamin D3 pretty much cleared up all her lupus lesions and eliminated her allergy to sunlight.\nOsteoporosis, Weak bones: Vitamin D helps absorb calcium from food. Low levels of Vitamin D means that the body can only absorb a small percentage of calcium, which is not enough to build healthy and stronger bones, according to a study. Lack of calcium deposits due to low levels of Vitamin D also affect bone density in adults, which can lead to osteoporosis. However it is best to be careful if one is going to take higher doses of D3 to keep an eye on one\u2019s blood calcium as too much D3 for too long can in rare cases lead to hypercalcemia with the most likely problem being a painful calcium kidney stone. Taking higher doses of Vitamin K2 can make vitamin D3 supplementation much safer by activating certain enzymes that take calcium out of the blood and deposit it back in your bones.\nPre-term birth: Expectant mothers with Vitamin D deficiency are at risk of pre-term childbirth, as revealed in a study. Authors of the study suggested that Vitamin D likely have protective effects that help reduce bacterial infection in the placenta, which can lead to pre-term birth. D3 deficient mothers are also at much greater risk of other birth complications such a preeclampsia, gestational diabetes, etc. Pregnant mothers should be taking at a minimum, 6,000 IU of d3 per day and likely more. There are also a large number of diseases seen at a much higher rate in children of Vitamin D3 deficient mothers such a asthma, schizophrenia, autism, allergies, and various skin conditions and more.\nAlopecia and Hair loss: A study revealed that Vitamin D level is significantly lower in women with pattern hair loss. Vitamin D aids in hair cycling and helps push hair to its growing phase. Other substances that boost hair growth are hyaluronic acid, and Fo Ti Root which is an important herb in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM).\nVitamin D is alluded to as the daylight vitamin. This is incorrect; it isn\u2019t a vitamin as in you should get it from your eating regimen. You can get it from your eating regimen, yet you can likewise make it with your body when sun hits your skin. Vitamin D3 is really an intense hormone that controls no less than 300 qualities in your DNA and conceivable a numerous as 1,000 of our 20,000 aggregate protein coding qualities. An insufficiency in Vitamin D can be connected to a substantial number of medical problems, no less than 100, for the most part immune system maladies that are seen at a higher rate in ladies than men.",

        "raw_content": "Are car speakers to go same way as eight-tracks, CDs and aerials?\nAFP Relaxnews / 10:11 PM March 27, 2018\nImage: Continental AG via AFP Relaxnews\nMost of us probably haven\u2019t paid too much attention to how the audio systems in our vehicles have changed so much over the last few years, and probably don\u2019t think about it too much as the changes have happened gradually over a length of time. But according to a report in the New York Times, a really monumental change could be on the way as car speakers could be the next component to be phased out by a new system called Ac2ated Sound.\nMany of today\u2019s motorists won\u2019t even know what an eight-track is, but that was the first item to disappear before the next-generation audio cassettes that replaced the eight-track were also done away with by the CD player. CD players have now been almost eliminated by hard-drives, USB storage and Bluetooth streaming, and did anyone actually notice when aerials became a thing of the past?\nThis new Ac2ated Sound system, unveiled last year, has been developed by an audio component supplier called Continental AG, and it\u2019s based on the principles of stringed instruments and relies on a small transducer made up of a magnet wrapped in a copper coil. This transducer then generates micro-vibrations from electrical energy, but rather than a conventional oscillating membrane currently found in speakers, this new component uses larger and existing interior components to radiate the sound to deliver high-fidelity audio.\nFor example, the rear window could operate as the subwoofer for the bass, the windshield, floor, dashboard and seat frames could deliver the midrange, and the A-pillars could then complete the audio spectrum by delivering the high frequencies by operating as the tweeters.\nSpeaking to the New York Times, Continental\u2019s team leader on the project, Dominik Haefele, explained, \u201cIt\u2019s a 3D immersive sound, and you\u2019re experiencing the music in a very different way. You\u2019re in the sound. You feel it all around you, like you\u2019re adding another dimension to it.\u201d\nAs well as offering less weight, much less box volume and lower electricity consumption, it\u2019s claimed the system can be integrated into any vehicle. The developers say current high-end audio systems rely on as many as 10 to 20 or more speakers, can add more than 9 kilograms in weight, and take up as much as 30 liters of interior volume. In contrast, Ac2ated Sound weighs less than a kilogram and takes up just 1 liter of additional space.

        "raw_content": "Will This Year Be Better For Buyers Or Sellers?\nIf you want to know whether this year is going to be good for buyers or sellers or both, you need to watch for a couple of factors. First, take a look at the housing market. A recent uptick in mortgage rates, combined with higher prices and lower inventory, have made buying a home slightly less affordable than it was a couple of years ago. However, mortgage rates are still historically low and, though prices continue to rise, they have slowed down in many markets. That means, though affordability isn\u2019t what it was a few years ago, buying a home remains an affordable choice. This is especially true when taken together with recent economic data. That\u2019s because, whether or not higher rates will deter potential buyers really depends more on whether or not those buyers feel financially secure and optimistic about their prospects. In other words, if Americans continue to see better job opportunities and higher wages, they\u2019ll be less likely to hesitate when thinking about buying a house regardless of where rates and prices go. According to the most recent outlook from Fannie Mae\u2019s Economic & Strategic Research Group, how things play out will depend largely on young Americans. \u201cTight inventory remains a boon to home prices and Americans\u2019 net worth, but it also continues to price out many would-be first-time homebuyers,\u201d Doug Duncan, Fannie Mae\u2019s chief economist, said. \u201cHowever, our research suggests that aging millennials, now boasting higher real wages, are beginning to narrow the homeownership attainment gap.\u201d More here.",

Some Victorians have been confronted with requests for contact from children they never knew they had.\nNew findings, new laws\nThe Central Register of Victorian sperm donors and donor-conceived people was established in 1988 to record their information and donor histories. The news that records of sperm donations from the 1970\u2019s and 1980\u2019s are preserved opens the door to donor-conceived people born before 1988 to find information about their donor, and potentially make contact.\nLast year in Victoria, key amendments were made to the Assisted Reproductive Treatment Act that gave all donor-conceived people, regardless of when they were born, the right to apply for information about their donor to the Central Register.\nThis world-first legislation was prompted by research that shows that people related through donor conception want information about each other and that when they are allowed to, many donor-conceived people access information about their donor to better understand themselves and their ancestry.\nA study in Victoria also found that at least half of the donors who had donated anonymously were in favour of their offspring being able to know their identity.\nAt the time when the amendments were proposed, many were concerned about the psychological consequences of retrospective removal of anonymity, particularly for donors who thought that they were anonymous.\nOthers argued that the law change was needed to give all donor-conceived people, including those who were born in the era of anonymity (before 1988), the right to know their biological origins.\nA year on, a picture of how donors and donor-conceived people in Victoria have responded to the new law is emerging.\nFinding each other\nMost donor-conceived people who have applied to VARTA for information about their donor have been able to find out his identity. A few have found that their donor has died, but they nevertheless appreciated the opportunity to know who he was.\nSome donors have also approached VARTA to apply for information about their donor offspring. When this happens VARTA is required to approach the donor-conceived adult to see if they would like to exchange information with the donor or have contact. Some have been unaware that their parents had donor treatment and were surprised to find out. Nevertheless, many agree to exchange information with their donor.\nFor some donors and parents who have not told their adult children that they were conceived from sperm donation, the law change has caused distress and concern about how information which they thought was secret will affect them and their families.\nDonors who are found, whether they now live in Victoria or elsewhere, are often asked if they are willing to be contacted by their offspring and exchange information.\nSome decline and lodge a so called \u201cno contact preference\u201d, but most are willing to share some information about themselves, and are interested to know about the people they have helped to conceive.\nRead more: As Victoria opens sperm donor records, the key question is: do contact vetoes work?\nThe process of contact between donors and their offspring often starts very tentatively with exchange of emails.\nIf the parties want to take it further, they may decide to talk to each other on the phone and eventually they might meet in person. After meeting some move on to connect as families and people related through donor conception, including biological half-siblings, can get to know each other.\nContact is sometimes a one-off but there are many examples of donors meeting with one or several of their donor-conceived offspring, establishing friendships, and discovering that they share both physical attributes and interests with their new found relatives.\nThe changing landscape of donor conception\nThe early days\u2019 expectation of donor anonymity has gradually moved towards openness and acceptance of the right of donor-conceived people to know their origins.\nWhile Victoria was the first jurisdiction in the world to remove donor anonymity retrospectively, donors around the world are increasingly agreeing for their information to be made available to their offspring, and want to know how to handle a future contact with offspring.\nSome predicted that retrospective removal of donor anonymity would spell the end of donor conception, a prediction which thankfully has proven to be unfounded. Others contend that in the era of DNA testing, donor anonymity is a thing of the past anyway.\nWhile the law change has challenged many parents who have not shared the information about using a donor with their adult children, research shows that people prefer to learn about their conception from their parents, and that the age when they find out that they were donor-conceived does not affect the relationship with their parents.\nA year in, mostly positive outcomes\nA year on from the change in Victoria\u2019s donor legislation, there have been many successful connections as a result of over 160 applications to the Central Register. There has also been challenges for some donors who feel that their rights have not been considered and for parents who have not disclosed their use of donor sperm to anyone.\nOn balance, Victoria\u2019s world-first approach to giving all donor-conceived people the right to find out about their donor has brought more good than harm.\nThis article was co-authored by Louise Johnson, Kate Bourne, and Alexandra Saltis from the Victorian Assisted Reproductive Treatment Authority (VARTA).\nTrying for a baby?

        "title": "New Report Examines Economics of Angling Vs Commercial Fishing | The Fish Site",
        "raw_content": "New Report Examines Economics of Angling Vs Commercial Fishing\nUK - A report aimed at helping the seafood industry and policy makers to evaluate and compare the economic importance of sea angling and commercial fishing has been published, with the hope that it will provide a blueprint for future comparisons of the sectors which has previously been a thorny issue on both sides.\nA workshop that included Government, economics experts and representatives from the commercial fishing and angling sectors, was held following another report published last year which made comparisons on sea bass fishing in Sussex.\nThe report, issued by Seafish on behalf of UKFEN, evaluates and recommends different economic analysis methods for comparing the value of industry sectors and informing policy questions about allocation of resources to achieve efficiency or fairness of distribution of quotas.\nIt also looks at other important elements, such as resource allocation, economic efficiency and distributional policy, distinguishing between political objectives, social justice, fairness, benefit maximisation and economic efficiency.\nAll sectors involved in the workshop have backed the report, including the angling sector, representatives from government, and the commercial fishing sector.\nCrucially, when comparing sectors, the UKFEN report found that while total value estimates give a snapshot of actual relative contributions to the economy, the results do not represent the likely consequences of stopping a particular activity.\nThe report points out that even when a study finds that more jobs and economic benefits arise from one type of fishing, rather than another, this finding reveals nothing about the marginal benefits of shifting stock allocations between sectors.\nSeafish organised and funded the workshop, with the intention that the report could provide guidance on valid methods to compare sector or industry values and highlight comparisons that are invalid or wrongly interpreted, ultimately to help inform decisions that affect the fishing industry.\nChief Economist at Seafish, Hazel Curtis, said: \u201cEconomists are frequently asked to compare the economic importance of the commercial fishing sector to the economic importance of recreational sea angling, but for economic impact analysis of different activities, comparing like with like can be very challenging.\n\u201cStatic analysis about the value of sectors does not inform adequately about the likely effects of policy change or reallocation of fishing rights between commercial and recreational fishing, so the purpose of our report is to provide policy makers with appropriate analysis and ensure they feel confident with the economic information to make informed decisions.\n\u201cWe hope that the report will help ensure that the most appropriate analyses are prepared given the policy context and will reduce time and effort debating the merits of the economic analyses so that there could be more time to spend on the wider policy debate itself\u201d.\nDale Rodmell, of the National Federation of Fishermen\u2019s Organisations (NFFO), contributed to the workshop and said: \u201cToo often inappropriate comparisons of value are made within poorly defined contexts or for divisive purposes. This report is a welcome contribution that sheds light and understanding on what is meant by different measures of economic value and on how they should be applied.\u201d\nNigel Horsman, of BASS, the Bass Anglers\u2019 Sportfishing Society, attended the workshop and said the report is \u201can excellent piece of work that deserves very careful reading by everyone involved in fisheries management, policy setting, stakeholders and anyone else with an interest in the subject. I hope it is read slowly and fully as I found important statements throughout. There is much to be gained from taking action to achieve better fisheries management.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "About 80% of Kenya's population is younger than 35. Observers believe youth voters will move Kenyan politics away from tribal affiliation and towards issue-based voting. But some experts say tribal affiliation runs very deep. (Neha Wadekar/GroundTruth)\nBy Neha Wadekar\nNAIROBI, Kenya \u2014 Grassroots activist and self-proclaimed artist Guiere Lumumba, 24, loiters outside a community center in Mathare, one of Nairobi\u2019s most notorious slums.\nSharply-dressed, he chats excitedly with a group of young men from different tribes about the change they hope to see come out of Kenya\u2019s 2017 general election. The building behind them is covered in stickers bearing optimistic messages: \u201cI am a peace ambassador,\u201d one reads.\nGuiere Lumumba, 24, said he would vote based on issues, and not on the tribal lines that have divided Kenyans and caused violence in past elections. (Neha Wadekar/GT)\nThe men are part of Mathare Empire, a community organization focused on spreading a message of peace in a country with a history of tribal-based violence and corruption during elections.\n\u201cI never think about tribe,\u201d Lumumba proclaims. \u201cIf I\u2019m going to vote for you it\u2019s going to be because I believe in your policies. It\u2019s going to be because you helped me. It\u2019s going to be because you kept your promise before\u2026. I\u2019m not just going to vote for anyone.\u201d\nAbout 80 percent of Kenya\u2019s population is younger than 35, according to one study, and the country\u2019s youth (those between 18 and 35) make up nearly half of its 19.6 million registered voters.\nBefore Tuesday\u2019s general election, there were hopes that young people like Lumumba would represent a new type of Kenyan voter, using issues, instead of tribal affiliation, to make decisions at the ballot.\n\u201cI think we\u2019re moving to issue-based politics,\u201d said Boniface Mwangi, 34, a journalist-turned-politician vying for a seat as a member of parliament in the election. \u201cIn the coming years it will all be about issues.\u201d\nBoniface Mwangi, a 34-year-old journalist turned activist ran for Parliament. He cast his vote with his family at Juja Road Primary School in Nairobi, Kenya on August 8, 2017. (Neha Wadekar/GroundTruth)\nBut as the election results streamed in, the optimism began to fade. Mwangi, who campaigned on an anti-corruption platform focused on issues affecting youth, lost by a large margin and conceded. Accusations of corruption and hacking marred an otherwise peaceful election day.\nPresidential candidate Raila Odinga claimed \u201cmassive fraud\u201d as returns showed him losing to incumbent President Uhuru Kenyatta. International observers have said the election was credible. For a time, it seemed his allegation could touch off widespread violence, but police quelled small riots in pockets of the country. 180,000 police and security forces armed with rifles, water cannons and tear gas were responsible for keeping peace in the East African nation.\nOver 180,000 police officers and security forces were deployed across Kenya to prevent violent riots. Here, a guard watches over long voting cues in Kibera slum, Nairobi. (Neha Wadekar/GroundTruth)\nThe level of concern was high because Kenya\u2019s election process has a legacy of violence and corruption. In 2013, Odinga contested the election results in court after losing to President Kenyatta, but his claims were overturned. In 2007 and 2008, post-election violence broke out between rival tribes after Odinga lost to Mwai Kibaki, leaving over 1,000 people dead and hundreds of thousands internally displaced.\nNearly 10 years later, this violence is still seared into the memory of Kenyan voters with Odinga vying for the highest office once more against the incumbent Kenyatta. Tensions were high across the country in the days leading up to the Tuesday election. Empty streets and grocery store shelves indicated palpable fear in the voting public.\nStreets in Nairobi, Kenya were empty as the country took to the polls to decide the outcome of the 2017 general election. (Neha Wadekar/GroundTruth)\nYoung people like Lumumba claimed that the post-election violence of 2007 is in Kenya\u2019s past.\n\u201cI don\u2019t think I have anything to worry about. 2007 was ten years ago,\u201d he said confidently. \u201cAnd although we\u2019re still affected, although it was serious and a lot of people died, I think we don\u2019t need to have that kind of paranoia.\u201d\nMany of these young Kenyans cite issues of unemployment, security and education as some of the most important factors in their decision-making. Although hard numbers are not yet available, independent election observers say that the youth voter turnout was high compared to previous elections.\n\u201cWe have a big challenge of youth unemployment. It is a time bomb,\u201dsaid Owora Richard Othieno, a three-time election observer from the East Africa Community delegation. \u201cNow the youth now are looking at ways of how to take the mantle, how to take the leadership because they have to decide on the future of their country. So they have come out this time to vote.\u201d\nThe youth now are looking at ways of how to take the mantle, how to take the leadership because they have to decide on the future of their country.\nOwora Richard Othieno\nBut experts warn against overestimating the power of the youth vote to overhaul the status quo of tribalism entrenched in Kenyan politics.\n\u201cEthnicity and identity matter more than generation,\u201d said Dr. Nic Cheeseman, professor of democracy and international development at the University of Birmingham in the United Kingdom.\n\u201cYounger voters will say that they are not voting along identity lines,\u201d Cheeseman said. \u201cBut when it comes down to it you can see that there is an element of identity in how they\u2019re voting.\u201d\nThis discrepancy was clear when talking to Emma, 33, a mother of three and domestic worker living in Mathare slum. After expressing her concerns about employment and opportunity for her children, she voiced a need for change.\n\u201cThis time we need a leader who will make the government hear our cries and help us and our children,\u201d she said.\nBut then, Emma confirmed that she would be voting once more for President Kenyatta, who is also from the Kikuyu tribe in Kenya.\nKenyatta holds a strong lead with the large majority of votes counted. Meanwhile Odinga, a member of the Luo tribe, has yet to concede.\nThe Kenyan election results are not final. This article will be updated as new information becomes available.",

        "raw_content": "Pirates drop two of three with record-setting Saturday\nSenior Jerad Curry had a huge weekend for the Armstrong Pirates as he recorded four home runs in the three-game series against the Falcons. He had three home runs in Saturday\u2019s 16-inning contest. Saturday, April 3, 2016 (Armstrong Communications)\nThe Armstrong State University baseball team dropped two of three over the weekend in a Peach Belt Conference series against the Montevallo Falcons.\nOn Saturday, April 2, the Pirates were able to outlast the Falcons in a 16-inning marathon which tied the PBC record for longest game in innings played.\nThe Pirates were swept in a doubleheader on Sunday, April 3, with a 10-5 loss in game one and an 8-7 loss in game two. Jerad Curry led the Pirates in Saturday\u2019s contest, going 3-6 at the plate, with three home runs and a walk.\nCurry\u2019s last blast came in the 16th and final inning, giving the Pirates a 10-9 lead. Ryan Lawless would retire the side in the bottom of the 16th to close out the Falcons. Lawless threw 5 innings of four-hit, one-run relief with 5 strikeouts to earn the win.\nChandler Corley finished the night going 3-for-7 while J.T. Phillips would go 3-for-8. In game one of Sunday\u2019s doubleheader, the Pirates fought back from a 4-0 deficit to gain the lead in the sixth inning, thanks to a Berry Aldridge RBI single and a sacrifice fly by Will Austin.\nAldridge would finish the day 2-for-3 at the dish with three RBIs.

        "title": "New Release Book Review: Evening in Paradise by Lucia Berlin | Theresa Smith Writes",
        "raw_content": "The publication of A Manual for Cleaning Women, Lucia Berlin\u2019s dazzling collection of short stories, marked the rediscovery of a writer whose talent had gone unremarked by many. The incredible reaction to Lucia\u2019s writing \u2013 her ability to capture the beauty and ugliness that coexist in everyday lives, the extraordinary honesty and magnetism with which she draws on her own history to breathe life into her characters \u2013 included calls for her contribution to American literature to be as celebrated as that of Raymond Carver.\nRanging from Texas, to Chile, to New Mexico and New York, in this collection Berlin writes about the good, the bad and everything in between: struggling young mothers, husbands who pack their bags and leave in the middle of the night, wives looking back at their first marriage from the distance of their second.\nEvening in Paradise is a careful selection from the remaining Berlin stories \u2013 a jewel box follow-up for Lucia Berlin\u2019s hungry fans.\nI had never actually heard of Lucia Berlin prior to receiving this collection of short stories. Her short bio indicates that she led a colourful life and the stories included in this collection are reminiscent of the experiences indicated in her bio. Her style is rather conversational, witty and desperately honest, sometimes painfully so. Not all of the stories were to my taste, some were a little difficult to follow, almost rambling. Others were perfection, a little slice of somebody\u2019s life you were invited to bear witness to. Many of the characters popped up in multiple stories, but at different stages of their life than when you had previously encountered them. It was interesting to see them within a different context, also from a different perspective. I can\u2019t help but think that some of these stories are autobiographical, with the recurring themes and characters. For someone who generally doesn\u2019t enjoy short stories, I found this collection to be very engaging.\nThanks is extended to Pan Macmillan Australia for providing me with a copy of Evening in Paradise for review.\nLucia Berlin (1936-2004) worked brilliantly but sporadically throughout the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s. Her stories are inspired by her early childhood in various Western mining towns; her glamorous teenage years in Santiago, Chile; three failed marriages; a lifelong problem with alcoholism; her years spent in Berkeley, New Mexico, and Mexico City; and the various jobs she held to support her writing and her four sons. Sober and writing steadily by the 1990s, she took a visiting writer\u2019s post at the University of Colorado in Boulder in 1994 and was soon promoted to associate professor. In 2001, in failing health, she moved to Southern California to be near her sons. She died in 2004 in Marina del Rey. A collection of her stories, A Manual for Cleaning Women, was published to great acclaim in 2015.\nAmerican Fiction, American Literature, Book Reviews, Books from Abroad, New Release, Short Stories\nAmerican Authors, American Fiction, Book Reviews, Lucia Berlin, New Releases, Pan Macmillan Australia, Short Stories\n\u2190 New Release Book Review: The Invitation by Belinda Alexandra\nNew Release Book Review: The Kinship of Secrets by Eugenia Kim \u2192\n8 thoughts on \u201cNew Release Book Review: Evening in Paradise by Lucia Berlin\u201d\nNot for me, because I also tend not to read short stories \u2013 but that\u2019s a beautiful cover:)\nI\u2019ll probably only read one short story collection a year, and that\u2019s usually to accommodate a reading bingo card. There\u2019s two covers for this book, both of them equally as striking. The other one is a heavy glass ashtray in the centre of an all yellow background with the same circular text inside the ashtray. This one is my favourite but the ashtray cover possibly suits the stories better. There is a lot of smoking in each story!\nIt\u2019s amazing, isn\u2019t it? Like all the smoking in films\u2026.\nNo one, repeat no one that I know (socially), smokes. (And I\u2019d know if they did because you can smell it on their skin).\nI suspect that film makers are getting some kind of kickback to normalise smoking in their films, but I can\u2019t imagine why contemporary authors do it.\nIt really stands out for me in books too because I don\u2019t smoke, and like you, no one in my family and social circles smokes either. I can\u2019t credit why anything written in this century would include smoking. These stories were written in the 1960s through to the 1980s, but even in saying that, now that I think about it, an ashtray on the cover is probably not the way to go given what we now know about the effects of cigarettes. Even if the story is saturated with smoking, the cover shouldn\u2019t convey this. They should have just stuck with the tiles. The ashtray one is the North American cover. I don\u2019t think I\u2019ve seen an actual ashtray since the 1990s but maybe they are still about in America.\nI don\u2019t know what the rules are in the US\u2026\nI was looking at this one to read, I\u2019m sure this one is under the \u2018forgotten classics\u2019 on the Pan Macmillan site, hmm, I\u2019ll have to go check. I decided against this one anyway. My father was a heavy smoker (chain smoker) until a horrific car accident left him in hospital for 4 months and as he was confined to bed he wasn\u2019t allowed to smoke, once he left hospital he no longer craved cigarettes. I was a social smoker until I met my husband, he gave me an ultimatum \u2013 him or smokes! Unfortunately I chose the former. LOL. Don\u2019t tell hubby I said that, I do love him dearly! \ud83d\ude01\nI told hubby if I give up smoking then he must give up drinking beer, he agreed until his dad said, \u2018son, have a beer with me.\u2019 Well, he can\u2019t say no to his dad. Lol.\nMy father-in-law was also a heavy smoker, not sure why he gave up, must ask hubby. None of his 6 kids ever touched a cigarette and neither do any of their spouses smoke or his 10 grandchildren and their partners, which I find pretty amazing, you\u2019d think out of 29 family members at least one would be a smoker but nope.\nIt\u2019s an interesting collection of stories, very slice of life.\nPingback: Bingo Blunder: When organised chaos just becomes chaos | Theresa Smith Writes",

Currently my PS3 is gathering dust as it\u2019s only real use now is Blu-ray playing until I can get a decent Blu-ray drive for my PC. Despite not having played God of War, there is one thing I do though like very much about it: this trailer for God of War 3 from E3 2008. I saw this trailer on Gamer.TV I think it was and then on Playr, both on the now defunct Bravo TV channel. I like the awe the trailer provides. It creates this great introduction into a novel of chaotic proportions. The trailer shows storms, collapsing buildings, a deep torrent of lava and great shot of Mount Olympus. On to this we get the great narration which I assume is coming from Zeus. It\u2019s commanding, but also its sounds contradicting to what he is saying. Then it ends with a view of Kratos with the voice shouting at him in the third person, but it\u2019s not Zeus who ends it, but Kratos who delivers the fantastic line: \u201cThere Will Be Only Chaos!\u201d\nIt\u2019s a brilliant trailer as it really sets up this beast of a game and wants you to take part and find out what happens. It is one of my most memorable video game trailers if not moments. I may not have played any God of War games, but I am a big fan of this trailer.\nGames, Trailers\nVideo Games, PlayStation 3, God of War, God of War 3, Kratos, Zeus, Mount Olympus, God of War series, PS3 Games, E3",

The alligator was too much for them, so they had to call a specialist to coax the animal out.\n\u201cWhile our animal health officers are very highly trained, that is a little out of their expertise,\u201d John Baccala, a spokesman for the city\u2019s Neighborhood and Housing Services department told the Kansas City Star. \u201cWe were called in and were told what was inside and get it off of the property.\u201d\nAnimal control officers also found three pythons and a rabbit in the home.\nSean Casey, who was living in the house, said the alligator's name was Catfish and he had him for four years.\n\u201cHe had his own way of saying, \u2018Hi,\u2019 to people,\u201d Casey said. \u201cThey\u2019re not big ferocious animals like people think. They have personalities.\u201d\nCasey hopes he can get his alligator back, but it is unlikely because it is illegal for people to own them as a pet. Catfish has been taken to the Monkey Island Rescue and Sanctuary, while authorities decide how to proceed.",

        "raw_content": "The Core - Earth Has A Deadline (Official Website)\n\"The Core\" is NOT meant to be taken seriously. It's not based on an article in Scientific American. ...The scriptwriter and filmmakers may have strived for some scientific accuracy, but who in their right mind would for one minute believe anything like this could happen?!? It's a MOVIE, it's entertainment, it's NOT a documentary.\"\n- MaxStone, RottonTomatoes forum, 3-10-2003\n\u201cTo be \u2018matter of fact\u2019 about the world is to blunder into fantasy\u2014and dull fantasy at that, as the real world is strange and wonderful.\u201d\n- Robert Heinlein in \u201cTime Enough For Love\u201d\n...And now along comes \"The Core,\" a disaster epic that depicts what might happen if the Earth's molten center were to stop spinning. That sounds safe enough, doesn't it? Not a likely plot development in real life, but the trailer for the film depicts what results when the core stops spinning: a global electromagnetic disturbance that knocks a space shuttle right out of the sky.\nSpace shuttle Columbia explodes over Texas, killing 7 astronauts\nTrouble came at 7:53 a.m., 23 minutes before the expected arrival time, when flight control saw the loss of temperature sensors on the left wing's hydraulic systems, said chief flight director Milt Heflin. That was followed by the loss of a series of other sensor measurements, including the tire pressure and temperature readings, also on the left side. An alert about the malfunction was sent to the crew members, who then acknowledged the information.\nThat was the last that was heard from the five men and two women aboard. Flight control lost all contact and ability to track Columbia around 8:00 a.m., Heflin said.\nThe Core (2003) SYNOPSYS \u00a9 Paramount Pictures\nBut Keyes can't let go of the deaths so easily, and when other bizarre \"natural\" phenomena begin occurring worldwide, he suspects that earth's electromagnetic field has been comprised.\nSince the late 1970s, satellite measurements have shown that this post-glacial rebound, as it is called, generates a corresponding rounding of Earth's gravity field.\nSuddenly the trend has reversed.\nMagnetic Reversals\nAlthough other mechanisms \u2013 such as meteor impacts \u2013 have been postulated, it is generally agreed that reversals occur because of some change in the dynamo process that generates the magnetic field. The simplest explanation is that convection in the outer core ceases, allowing the magnetic field to decay. Eventually, heat build up will start convection going again and a new field will form whose polarity will depend on the polarity of any residual field at the spot where convection restarts.\nDetection of a Large-Scale Mass Redistribution in the Terrestrial System Since 1998\nChristopher M. Cox,1* Benjamin F. Chao2\nEarth's dynamic oblateness (J2) had been undergoing a decrease, according to space geodetic observations over the past 25 years, until around 1998, when it switched quite suddenly to an increasing trend that has continued to the present. The present increase, whose geophysical cause(s) are uncertain, thus signifies a large change in global mass distribution with a J2 effect that considerably overshadows that of mantle rebound.\nAnd things will only get worse. As the electromagnetic field, which shields the earth from solar radiation, slowly collapses, airplanes will start falling from the sky, and everything electronic will be fried. Static discharge in the atmosphere will create \"super-storms\" with hundreds of lighting strikes per square mile, and deadliest of all, microwave radiation will literally cook the planet.\nSun's rays to roast Earth as poles flip\nEarth's magnetic field - the force that protects us from deadly radiation bursts from outer space - is weakening dramatically.\nThe effects could be catastrophic. Powerful radiation bursts, which normally never touch the atmosphere, would heat up its upper layers, triggering climatic disruption. Navigation and communication satellites, Earth's eyes and ears, would be destroyed and migrating animals left unable to navigate.\nAt the same time, life as we know it begins deteriorating as well, causing birds to lose their ability to navigate, whales to erratically change their migration patterns and people with pacemakers to suddenly drop dead. Even the famed Northern Lights appear in the night sky a hundred times brighter and farther south than ever before.\nBut now Gauthier Hulot of the Paris Geophysical Institute has discovered Earth's magnetic field seems to be disappearing most alarmingly near the poles, a clear sign that a flip may soon take place.\nAnd as Scientific American reports this week, this interpretation has now been backed up by computer simulation studies.\nIt is unlikely that humans could do much. Burrowing thousands of miles into solid rock to set things right would stretch the technological prowess of our descendants to bursting point, though such limitations do not worry film scriptwriters. Paramount's latest sci-fi thriller, The Core - directed by Englishman Jon Amiel, and starring Hilary Swank and Aaron Eckhart - depicts a world beset by just such a polar reversal, with radiation sweeping the planet.\nfrom All Things Considered, Monday , February 10, 2003\nHollywood is a dream factory. But what happens when real-world events make the dreams feel like nightmares? NPR's Bob Mondello looks at movies that come too close to reality for comfort.\n\u201cLooks like the producers changed the entire premise of the movie. In the original trailer, it was suggested that some kind of natural process caused the earth's magnetic field to dissipate every million years or so. Now, in the new trailer, the problem is not natural. Evidently some kind of government weapon that causes earthquakes is to blame. Like that's any more believable.\u201d\n- mister_kronic, 12/30/02, Don't get too excited about this flick\nNOVA | Magnetic Storm | See a Reversal | PBS\nMost of us like stability in our lives, especially when it comes to planet-wide phenomena, such as the daily appearance of the sun or the periodic change of season. So it can be unsettling to learn of global phenomena that are inherently unstable, unpredictable. Such is the case with the Earth's magnetic field. Every so often, our planet's magnetic poles reverse polarity (see When Compasses Point South). Compass needles have always pointed north; in a reversal, they would point south.\nYou could perhaps take comfort in the knowledge that these reversals happen infrequently -- on average every 250,000 years -- but maybe not when you consider that it's been over 700,000 years since the last reversal, and the next one may be currently underway.\nHOUSTON -- The space shuttle Columbia splintered across the East Texas sky early Saturday morning, killing all seven astronauts aboard.\nThe disaster came just 16 minutes from Columbia's scheduled landing at Cape Canaveral, Fla., where friends and family waited expectantly for loved ones part of what was deemed an \"amazing mission.\"\nWhile it may be months or years before the cause is known, NASA officials have already launched an investigation into the cause of the disaster.\nNew Data on Shuttle 'Mystery Object'\nAccident Board Confident of Determining Cause of Columbia Disaster\nThe Columbia Accident Investigation Board has received solid data about an \"object\" seen drifting away from the shuttle the day after launch that, officials believe, may allow investigators to determine the object's size, shape and density as well as whether it was a piece of the shuttle.\nThere was speculation at the time, however, that the object could be some piece of space junk that hit the shuttle or a piece of the shuttle that was knocked off by a meteoroid.\nHollywood reacts to tragedy\nUSA TODAY, Claudia Puig and Scott Bowles\nTrailers for the upcoming movie The Core were pulled from theaters over the weekend as Paramount Pictures responded to the tragic end Saturday of the space shuttle Columbia. The trailer shows a space shuttle having navigational difficulties.\n\"We wanted to be sensitive to the tragedy and show respect for the families that have lost loved ones,\" said Nancy Kirkpatrick, executive vice president of worldwide publicity for Paramount.\n...With her is a room full of scientific experts and government officials, and unfortunately, an eccentric young genius called Rat (D.J. Qualls). Formerly convicted of computer fraud, Rat is there to hack into the Internet to suppress information about the situation in order to prevent widespread panic. Secretly, however, he is also feeding Keyes covert data about something geophysicist Zimsky is hiding from the crew, something that the U.S. government is privy to...\nWhile most of the content of this page is focused on uncovering relationships and coincidences between natural geophysical phenomenon and the film The Core I thought it worth identifying the US Government sponsored project that I think the filmmakers based their alternate explanation, i.e. HAARP. You can find several other sites which discuss the HAARP project by utilizing any search engine such as Google, Yahoo! or MSN. This is the projects home;\nGeneral Information about the HAARP Program\nThe HAARP program is committed to developing a world class ionospheric research facility consisting of:\n* The ionospheric research instrument (IRI), a high power transmitter facility operating in the HF frequency range. The IRI will be used to temporarily excite a limited area of the ionosphere for scientific study.\n* A sophisticated suite of Scientific (or \"diagnostic\") instruments that will be used to observe the physical processes that occur in the excited region.\nObservation of the processes resulting from the use of the IRI in a controlled manner will allow scientists to better understand processes that occur continuously under the natural stimulation of the sun.\nScientific instruments installed at the HAARP Observatory will be useful for a variety of continuing research efforts which do not involve the use of the IRI but are strictly passive. Among these studies include ionospheric characterization using satellite beacons, telescopic observation of the fine structure in the aurora, and documentation of long-term variations in the ozone layer.\nAs of August 22, 2002 when I write this the film The Core is scheduled to be released November 1, 2002 (As of 10/2/02 it has been rescheduled to release in the first quarter of 2003 in order to improve special effects). Below I have assembled some articles and specific citations that I contend correspond both with the underlying premise of the film (if not all the specifics) as well as my Pleistocene Mass Extinction theory. I chose the quote below about scientists being blind to obvious patterns to highlight the coincidental timing in 1998 of both the change in redshift observations that when applied to a Big Bang cosmological model (which I think is fantasy) indicates the Universe has begun accelerating in its expansion with the observation that the Earth's gravitational field has significantly and suddenly shifted direction.\nGSC-Geomagnetism - Magnetic Reversals\nThe Earth's magnetic field is aligned roughly along the spin axis and has an approximate dipole shape, similar to that of a bar magnet, with north and south magnetic poles. This is the normal state of affairs, but occasionally the magnetic field switches polarity, the north and south magnetic poles reverse, and the field settles down in the opposite state. The process goes by several names \u2013 \"magnetic field reversal\" and \"polarity transition\" are the most common.\nReversals have been documented as far back as 330 million years. During that time more than 400 reversals have taken place, one roughly every 700,000 years on average. However, the time between reversals is not constant, varying from less than 100,000 years, to tens of millions of years. In recent geological times reversals have been occurring on average once every 200,000 years, but the last reversal occurred 780,000 years ago. At that time the magnetic field underwent a transition from a \"reversed\" state to its present \"normal state\".\nWe get our information about reversals from certain types of rock in which information about the direction of the magnetic field is imprinted. When igneous rocks, which may form inside the Earth or on its surface, cool and solidify they acquire a magnetization parallel to the ambient magnetic field. If the rock cools quickly, as would a lava flow, it acquires an almost instantaneous record of the magnetic field. Slowly cooling rocks, such as those that form inside the Earth, acquire a record of the magnetic field smeared over a much longer period of time. Sedimentary rocks acquire their magnetizations as each individual grain of sediment aligns itself in the direction of the magnetic field as it is deposited.\nEarth's dynamic oblateness (J2) had been undergoing a decrease, according to space geodetic observations over the past 25 years, until around 1998, when it switched quite suddenly to an increasing trend that has continued to the present. The secular decrease in J2 resulted primarily from the postglacial rebound in the mantle. The present increase, whose geophysical cause(s) are uncertain, thus signifies a large change in global mass distribution with a J2 effect that considerably overshadows that of mantle rebound.\nGEOPHYSICS: Redistributing Earth's Mass\nRobin McKie, science editor, The Observer\nScientists have discovered that its strength has dropped precipitously over the past two centuries and could disappear over the next 1,000 years.\n'Earth's magnetic field has disappeared many times before - as a prelude to our magnetic poles flipping over, when north becomes south and vice versa,' said Dr Alan Thomson of the British Geological Survey in Edinburgh.\n'Reversals happen every 250,000 years or so, and as there has not been one for almost a million years, we are due one soon.'\nFor more than 100 years, scientists have noted the strength of Earth's magnetic field has been declining, but have disagreed about interpretations. Some said its drop was a precursor to reversal, others argued it merely indicated some temporary variation in field strength has been occurring.\nUsing satellite measurements of field variations over the past 20 years, Hulot plotted the currents of molten iron that generate Earth's magnetism deep underground and spotted huge whorls near the poles.\nHulot believes these vortices rotate in a direction that reinforces a reverse magnetic field, and as they grow and proliferate these eddies will weaken the dominant field: the first steps toward a new polarity, he says.\n\"This is a common problem in science: Sometimes we don't see what we don't expect to see,\" Brett said. \"The influence of a particular paradigm is so strong that it may make people put blinders on, and it may prevent people from seeing obvious patterns.\"\n- STORY IN FOSSIL RECORD\nAlan Boyle, MSNBC, Dec. 17, 1998\nMore evidence for mass extinction - Lava flow twice the size of Europe covered Siberia 250 million years ago.\nPHILIP BALL, 7 June 2002,\nQuakes from Italy to Alaska Unrelated, Experts Say\nOSLO (Reuters) - Earthquakes from Italy to Pakistan that have killed at least 48 people in the past week are unconnected and merely part of the planet's routine and often devastating rumblings, seismologists said on Monday.\nThe deaths of 26 children in southern Italy when their school collapsed on Thursday caused international shock and made it seem that subsequent quakes in Indonesia, Pakistan, the United States and Japan were part of a freak chain.\nBut seismologists were unanimous: the earth is not going into a sudden spasm. People who live on geological fault lines, such as in San Francisco, California, are no more at risk than they were before.\nAlaska Quake Shakes Yellowstone Park, Too\nL.A. Overdue for Major Earthquake\nSun Nov 17, 2002 8:12 AM ET\nGeologists: Alaska Quake Caused by Huge Rupture\nWed Nov 20, 2002 3:36 PM ET\nPASADENA, Calif. (Reuters) - A 7.9 magnitude earthquake (news - web sites) in Alaska earlier this month was triggered by one of the largest fault ruptures in at least 150 years, rivaling the one that caused the great 1906 San Francisco quake, geologists said on Wednesday.\nThe scientists were surprised to discover that the fault rupture moved only east from the epicenter and left the western half of the great fault unbroken, Sieh said, prompting them to speculate that the quake could have been the first in a series of large events that will eventually include breaks farther west toward Mount McKinley and Denali National Park.\nExpert warns California to brace for big quake by September\nLOS ANGELES (AFP) - A US geophysicist has set the scientific world ablaze by claiming to have cracked a holy grail: accurate earthquake prediction, and warning that a big one will soon hit southern California.\nRussian-born University of California at Los Angeles professor Vladimir Keilis-Borok says he can foresee major quakes by tracking minor temblors and historical patterns in seismic hotspots that could indicate more violent shaking is on the way.\nAnd he has made a chilling prediction that a quake measuring at least 6.4 magnitude on the Richter scale will hit a 31,200-square-kilometer (12,000-square-mile) area of southern California by September 5.\nThe team at UCLA's Institute of Geophysics and Planetary Physics accurately predicted a 6.5-magnitude quake in central California last December as well as an 8.1-magnitude temblor that struck the Japanese island of Hokkaido in September.\nMONDELLO: Timing is important when it comes to whether real life makes movie sequences resonate freshly or seem tasteless.\n...Still, it's friendlier when Tinseltown plots a less nerve-wracking course.

Daylighting can be optimized by paying close attention to certain factors during the design stage of a building, including the interior layout, building orientation, usage and window placement within the space. Windows are, of course, a necessary component of daylighting but even though windows comprise a small area of a home, they are responsible for a heat loss that is disproportionate to their area. This heat loss can be mitigated by using a window layout that promotes solar gain during the winter months and also by using windows that are energy-efficient. Energy-efficient windows have the additional benefit of reducing, or eliminating entirely, condensation issues that could otherwise lead to mould growth.\nFor more information on this technology, download the Canadian Mortgage and Housing Corporation's Daylighting Guide for Buildings.",

        "title": "The Top 12 Ways to Tell a Fake Rolex from a Real One",
        "raw_content": "Rolexes, like any other luxury item, are a hot commodity. That means lots of scammers and thieves are going to be very interested in creating and/or selling fake ones at the price of a genuine article.\nScams of this type are very common, especially through the Internet, where sales can be made without ever seeing the face of or knowing the real name of the seller. What was once only seen in vans and street stalls in New York City has now become a worldwide phenomenon.\nWhether you want to buy a Rolex for yourself or a loved one, how can you tell you\u2019re getting the real thing and not a well-made fake? Here are the top 12 ways you can spot a real from a fake.\n1. Its Weight\nBecause Rolex watches at their cheapest run about $3,000, it\u2019s made from the highest quality materials. This means that a genuine Rolex will have a significant weight and heft to it.\nCheaper construction materials in knockoffs mean a lighter watch. While a watch expert or experienced jeweler can tell for sure (they can weigh it and will know generally what a genuine watch\u2019s weight will be), a good test is simply to feel how it weighs in your hand.\nThe fake will be significantly lighter, while the genuine article will have heft.\n2. The Magnifier\nAll genuine Rolex watches feature a \u201ccyclops\u201d window above the date. This is a little magnifier that amplifies the number exactly 2.5 times for easy viewing.\nA fake Rolex will either not magnify at all, with the cyclops simply being an additional hunk of glass, or it will magnify much less. You should not have to squint when looking at the date on a Rolex. If you do, don\u2019t bother buying it.\n3. The Secret Crown\nBeginning in 2002, the Rolex company began adding a tiny, almost-invisible crown logo onto the watch\u2019s face\u2014specifically, micro-etched at the 6 o\u2019clock position into the crystal that covers the watch face.\nIt looks like a hologram or an etching, but it\u2019s not etched and it can\u2019t be seen by the naked eye. It\u2019s actually in the glass \u2013 little bubbles in the glass that form a crown. To see it, use a flashlight app on your phone. Place the phone light on the phone the 12 and the LEC (laser etched crown) will pop out.\nBecause of the process and equipment involved in adding this etching, as well as its minute size, fake Rolexes will not have it. This is hard to see with the naked eye, so either look very closely or have the jeweler or seller show it to you with magnification.\n4. The Backing\nExcept for some very rare and discontinued pieces from the 1930s, no genuine Rolex watch has any markings, engravings, or writing on the underside of the watch. Often, scammers prey upon people not realizing this little detail, so they engrave all kinds of things there, including very convincing replicas of the Rolex logo.\nBut there is never anything on the backing of a genuine Rolex watch. This is one of the key differences between the real and the counterfeit.\nAdditionally, Rolex backings are never clear. The backing has to be removed to view the movement underneath. If you can see through the backing of your watch when you flip it over, it\u2019s a fake.\n5. The Metal\nGenuine Rolex watches come in three different metals: Stainless steel, 18k gold, or platinum. They do not make gold plated or 14k gold watches. If your Rolex is one of these, it isn\u2019t real, no matter how convincing other details may be.\nThis means the gold will not fade and there should not be a visible layer of metal beneath the surface. These are telltale signs of a knockoff that should be avoided at all costs.\n6. The Dial\nGenuine Rolexes are known for extremely precise, perfect dials. Most notably, look for any smearing, imprecision, smudging, uneven fonts, or any other imperfection in the dial lettering. Some counterfeits get all of the words right but don\u2019t print them well, or create other blemishes due to their inferior creation process.\nAdditionally, look for a distinctive crown logo at the very top of the watch face. Depending on the model, this will either be:\nDirectly above the word \u201cRolex\u201d and below the window with the day of the week, without touching or overlapping the window\nAbove the word \u201cRolex\u201d and below the number 12 of the watch face\nReplacing the number 12 in a very few models.\nWhile some fakes have duplicated the crown, not all get it right. It ought to have five spires with the middle one being the tallest, and it will not overlap with any of the other lettering or details on the face. Rolexes are nothing if not shrines to unbelievable precision.\nFor NYC-area owners interested in selling their used Rolexes to jewelry experts, go here to find out how your watch can be appraised (you can visit in-person if in the area), or safely shipped from sellers outside the region for immediate payment.\n7. The Winding Crown\nThis is the little dial on the side of the watch that is used to adjust the hands and change the time. Fakes cannot duplicate the intricate and precise engraving that is on the dial.\nFakes will simply use a basic-looking crown that could go on any other watch. A genuine Rolex crown is finely, precisely engraved and features a raised, embossed crown logo that can be felt to the touch. Additionally, the winding crown will always be on the 3 o\u2019clock side of the watch, directly beneath the number 3. If it\u2019s anywhere else, it\u2019s a fake.\n8. The Ticking\nGenuine Rolexes do not (usually) make a ticking noise. They are known for being quiet machines of Swiss precision. If you hear noise from your watch, it is almost certainly a fake.\n9. The Serial and Model Numbers\nGenuine Rolexes have the model or case number machine-etched into the metal between the lugs of the face at the 12 o\u2019clock position. Genuine watches produced prior to 2005 will feature the serial number etched between the lugs at the 6 o\u2019clock position, while those released after that year will have it etched on the inside bezel under the crystal, also at the 6 o\u2019clock position.\nThe location of these numbers is key in identifying a fake watch. Pay especially close attention to the case number. Frequently, fakes will make one up completely, so that the number on the watch does not correspond to any actual watch in existence. Be sure to check the model number online or with a certified jeweler. A real Rolex will match the number listed for that model.\n10. The Engravings\nRemember the numbers are etched into the metal? Fake Rolexes don\u2019t show the precision and clean lines of the genuine article. Most of the time, their numbers\u2014and any other engravings, like logos\u2014will look roughly etched or even sand-blasted into the metal.\nGenuine Rolexes have their numbers precisely engraved, and of note is the fact that they will catch the light at certain angles, almost like a diamond-cut edge. Look for sharp, clean, defined lines and neat, precise lettering. Anything less is a fake.\n11. The Second Hand\nThis is related to the point above about ticking. The second hand of a genuine Rolex moves evenly around the face. This is because the movement of a Rolex is designed to break each second into eight separate internal movements, creating an even, almost imperceptibly smooth pass of the hand each time.\nThis is virtually impossible to reproduce, although some rare fakes are close. Most fakes will have a jerky, \u201cticking\u201d movement to the second hand because they lack the skill and precision to duplicate the intricate sweeping process featured in the genuine article. A sweeping second hand is virtually a guarantee of the real thing, while a jerking one is an unambiguous declaration of a fraud.\nThis is the most important test of a genuine Rolex. It is also one of the more difficult to determine, since most people are not qualified to remove the backing of a Rolex watch. But if you are able to have a professional safely remove it, checking the innards is the full stop in differentiating fake from real.\nA watch\u2019s movement is its \u201cengine.\u201d It is the internal structure that allows the watch to work. Rolex movements are made with precision and detail and are impossible to reproduce in every detail.\nThe only way to know for sure that your watch is the real deal is to have its movement examined by a watch expert. A genuine article will always have \u201cRolex\u201d engraved on it and have various other lettering and markings, as well as differently-colored pieces, that will identify it as real.\nAlso, be aware of quartz in your Rolex. That means it\u2019s battery-operated, while genuine Rolex watches are entirely run by the internal movement. Genuine watches are entirely mechanically-run, so the use of quartz in a watch is a dead giveaway that it\u2019s a fake. The bottom line is that a genuine Rolex movement is your top safeguard against a fake and you must be sure of its authenticity before you buy.\nTo learn more about the philosophy and design behind Rolex watches, see their official website here.\nThere will always be scammers and thieves out there. But like with most things, knowledge really is power. Being aware of some of the common ways people try to pass off fake Rolexes as the real thing, and knowing more importantly what the real thing looks like, will go a long way to making sure the large sum of money you\u2019re spending is on a genuine, finely-crafted piece of art you can enjoy for many years to come.",

For all intent and purposes, I am well adjusted. I live in my worthiness, I believe my circumstances are not who I am. And, my abusers have long since died. However, on rare occasions, unpredicted triggers catch my breath in hushed fury. I ask the ghosts \u201cHow could you? How dare you? YOU were supposed to protect me.\u201d\nYet, I never told.\nWhile I recognize that men are also sexually harassed and assaulted, due to limited space, I am going to limit this article to a discussion about female victims of sexual harassment and assault. Male victims do, however, suffer from many of the same after-effects and have many of the same reasons for not coming forward.\nOne of the primary reasons women don\u2019t come forward to report sexual harassment or assault is the shame. Shame is at the core of the intense emotional wounding women and men experience when they are sexually violated. Gershen Kaufman aptly stated in his book Shame: The Power of Caring, \u201cShame is a natural reaction to being violated or abused. In fact, abuse, by its very nature, is humiliating and dehumanizing.\u201d This is especially true for sexual violations. The victim feels invaded and defiled, while simultaneously experiencing the indignity of being helpless and at the mercy of another person.\u201d[1]",

        "raw_content": "The Fascinating Lives of Mexican Free-tailed Bats\n04/05/2016 asugeno\tLeave a comment\n\u00a9 J. Scott Altenbach, University of New Mexico\nGuest author: Amy Sugeno\nHere in the Texas Hill Country, we are lucky to enjoy many natural wonders: nesting Golden-cheeked warblers, migrating monarchs, and Texas alligator lizards, to name just a few. But did you know central Texas is also home to the largest concentrations of Mexican free-tailed bats in the United States? There are at least 11 major seasonal roosting sites in central Texas, each of which are home to at least 500,000 Mexican free-tailed bats. In fact, an estimated 100 million Mexican free-tailed bats call central Texas their summer home! A few of these sites are available for public viewing, and visitors come from all over the world to witness their spectacular evening emergences.\nAlthough a small percentage of Mexican free-tailed bats overwinters in Texas, most begin arriving to Texas in the spring (around mid-March) from their wintering grounds in Mexico, Central America, and possibly even as far south as South America. Females seek out one of only a handful of maternity sites to raise their young, called pups, which are born in early to mid-June. In these maternity sites, such as the ones at Congress Avenue Bridge and Eckert James River Bat Cave Preserve, the temperature and humidity must remain relatively stable in order for the pups to survive. Inside of a maternity cave, temperatures can reach upwards to 100 degrees or higher, especially where the highest densities of pups congregate, sometimes up to 500 pups per square foot.\n\u00a9 Thomas Kunz, Boston University\nAfter a gestation period of 4-6 weeks, the pups begin to fly, usually around the end of July and beginning of August. It is at this time when the most spectacular emergences occur. With nearly twice as many bats needing to emerge each night to feed, they must emerge earlier in the evening, which makes them easy to see. And if they are easier for humans to see, they are also easier for birds of prey to see! Red-tailed and Swainson\u2019s hawks and peregrine falcons are fairly common aerial predators, and watching them swoop and dive into the stream of emerging bats is a stunning sight. After the sun goes down, Great-horned owls pick up where the hawks and falcons left off. On the ground, several different snake species, raccoons, ringtails, and foxes all visit during emergence time to try and catch a low-flying or fallen bat or a bat whose wing has become impaled on the branch of a shrub.\nThe life history of Mexican free-tailed bats is full of fascinating facts: they can forage up to 1 mile high; they can fly up to 60 mph; mothers can find their own pup from the hundreds of thousands or millions of other pups in the roost; they can eat their own weight each night (they mostly eat moths); and they can survive in maternity roosts with ammonia levels high enough to kill a human!\nAnd this is only the beginning. If you\u2019d like to learn more, the best (and most fun!) way is to visit one of the fantastic viewing sites in our area. The two closest ones which are open to the public and offer educational presentations are Old Tunnel State Park and Eckert James River Bat Cave Preserve. If you want to explore further afield, Devil\u2019s Sinkhole State Natural Area, Frio Bat Cave, and Stuart Bat Cave in Kickapoo Caverns State Park are great places to go.\nHappy batting!\nbat emergencebatsMexican free-tailed bat\nPrevious PostOpen House this weekend!Next PostCuriosity\u2026",

Responsibility for obtaining permission to use any other copyright material rests with you as the author of the Contribution.\nIf your Contribution includes material which is not your copyright, you are responsible for submitting with your manuscript the written permission from those who control copyright in that material to include it and reproduce it within your Contribution. In most cases this will be the publisher of the work. You are responsible for the payment of any permission fees.\nIf your Contribution does not qualify for a 'fair dealing' (UK) or 'fair use' (USA) exception (please see below) you will need to clear permission for all third party material you intend to include: direct text extracts, tables, or illustrations that have appeared in copyrighted material must be accompanied by written permission for their use from the copyright owner and original author along with complete information as to source. You may be able to benefit from free re-use of a limited amount of material from certain publishers under the \u2018STM Permissions Guidelines\u2019 (see below).\nWhere possible, photographs of identifiable persons should be accompanied by signed releases from these people showing informed consent. This is particularly important for children and essential if photographs feature situations where privacy would be expected.\nArticles appear in both the print and online versions of the journal and may be translated or archived, and the wording of the permission licence must specify permission in all formats and media for the full legal term of copyright. Failure to get electronic permission rights - or needed releases - will result in the images not being included at all in your article.\nIf you are unsure whether you need to clear permission, please contact your Production Editor.\nThere are some occasions where permission is not required for re\u2013use of material from another source. The most important of these is \u2018fair dealing\u2019 (UK) or \u2018fair use\u2019 (USA).\nIf you wish to re-use original material published by SAGE in the work you are preparing for publication in a SAGE journal, this re-use may be covered by the STM Permissions Guidelines (see below) but in some cases may require permission from SAGE. In such instances, please visit Journals Permissions.\n1.1 What are the \u2018STM Permissions Guidelines\u2019 and how can I use them?\nSAGE is a signatory of the STM permissions guidelines. Despite the name, the STM Permissions Guidelines are not limited to the use of scientific, technical and medical content. Instead, all publications - unless specifically excluded - by the publishers who are signatories to the guidelines are eligible for use under the terms.\nThe guidelines allow signatory publishers (and their authors) to use small amounts of other signatory publishers\u2019 materials without payment of a fee. In some cases \u2013 where the publisher has \u2018opted out\u2019 of receiving notice - there is no need to request permission. In other cases, an author wishing to use content from another publisher simply cites the guidelines when requesting the material from the other publisher. If requesting permission online, \u201cSTM Publisher\u201d may be an option when identifying the journal in which your article will be published. Re-use under the STM Permissions Guidelines will not incur a fee.\nView further information about STM Permissions Guidelines and the process for providing notification when required.\nUK law provides that copyright will not be infringed by \u2018fair dealing\u2019 but it does not define what \u2018fair dealing\u2019 itself means. It has come to be interpreted as referring to the way material is used, as well as the intention of the person using it. However, use of third party material must qualify as fair dealing for a particular purpose. There are a number of these purposes specified in UK law but the most relevant one for us is 'Fair Dealing for Criticism or Review'.\nWhat constitutes \u2018fair dealing for Criticism or Review\u2019?\nFirst of all use of third party material must be \u2018Fair\u2019. That means: not systematic and not conflicting with the rights of the copyright holder or affecting their ability to benefit from the work:\nThere is no set amount of material allowed or forbidden. But the use cannot be systematic or excessive. Do not rely on word counts.\nYou must always make proper acknowledgment to the original copyright work.\nCriticism or review:\nThe third party material used must be discussed in the context of criticism or review. This is an essential component providing a justification for fair dealing.\nThere is no legal definition of criticism or review but it\u2019s likely that there would be a fairly liberal interpretation by the Courts.\nMere illustration or \u2018window dressing\u2019 is ruled out. A good question to ask is whether your work would stand up if the material was deleted. If so, it is unlikely to be for criticism and review.\nThis defence can only be used in United Kingdom law in conjunction with published works.\nPermission is always required if you wish to modify or make changes to the third party material because all authors have moral rights under European law.\nIf you are in any doubt as to whether or not you can use the material as \u2018fair dealing\u2019, you should clear permission, or leave the material out.\nPlease note that, this is SAGE\u2019s working view of a relatively untested area of the law.\n1.3 What is \u2018fair use\u2019, and what does it cover?\nFair use is codified as Section 107 of the US Copyright Act and provides an exception to the exclusive rights of the copyright holder under certain limited circumstances. Fair use involves a four factor analysis that includes considering (1) the purpose and nature of the use, (2) the nature of the original material, (3) the amount of the original material being used in relation to the original work as a whole, and (4) the effect the use will have on the market of the original work. Text, photographs, illustrations, and figures are all subject to fair use, but generally the more creative the original work (the nature of the original work), the weaker the basis for a fair use argument. Where the later use is transformative \u2013 that is, where the purpose of the use is different than the purpose of the original creation \u2013 the fair use argument will be stronger. Only the minimal portion of the original work that is sufficient for the use should be used (e.g., where a 200 word excerpt is adequate for the use, no more than 200 words should be reproduced, photographs should be reproduced in the minimum size that will achieve the purpose). Reproduction of an excerpt for the purpose of commentary, criticism, and discussion may be the basis for a fair use argument, subject to the overall determination under the four-factor analysis.\nIf you are in any doubt as to whether or not you can use the material as \u2018fair use\u2019, you should clear permission, or leave the material out.\nIn order to be able to publish your work in the print and online versions of your article we require permission to be granted for worldwide rights to reproduce in all media in all formats. You may use the template permission letter to request permission.\nIf an individual is identifiable in any audio- and/or visual material included in your Contribution, we require permission to be granted in order for SAGE to publish your Contribution in the journal. You may use the template release form to request permission.\nYes, please visit our Guidelines for SAGE Authors to review how, as an author, you may share your Contribution.\n1.7 How can I contact the Rights & Permissions department at SAGE?\nPlease visit Journals Permissions.\nPlease visit our Guidelines for SAGE Authors.\nYou may have granted the Proprietor an exclusive licence to your work and retained copyright in your contribution, or you may have transferred copyright in the contribution to the Proprietor.\nThis helps SAGE and the Proprietor to ensure adequate protection against infringement of copyright protected material through breach of copyright or piracy anywhere in the world. It also ensures that requests by third parties to reprint or reproduce a contribution, or part of it in any format, are handled efficiently in accordance with our general policy which encourages dissemination of knowledge inside the framework of copyright.\nWhere practicable, SAGE advises third parties to inform you of their requests to re-use your material. This does not apply to blanket arrangements covering the journal as a whole. Please keep our mailing list up to date with your institutional or business address changes to help us to do this. Inadvertent failure to inform you will not constitute a material breach of the Contributor Agreement you signed as a condition of publication.\nFor more information, please visit Journals Permissions.",

        "raw_content": "Telling our story, one Seahawk at a time.\nErin O\u2019Quinn and her identical twin, Elisabeth, didn\u2019t set out to follow their dreams to the same place. But after spending their undergraduate years at different universities in their home state of Georgia, both chose UNCW for their graduate studies \u2013 Erin in English and Elisabeth in the International MBA program.\nAdmitting she found UNCW while doing a Google search for universities with strong graduate English programs, Erin said she knew it was right for her after a closer look. \u201cI was interested in smaller class sizes and more one-on-one with professors,\u201d she said. Besides, she added, \u201cthe people are awesome.\u201d\nJoining Erin on a campus tour, Elisabeth, who was looking for a program with a focus on international business, took time to talk with faculty and staff at the Cameron School of Business. Soon she was convinced that UNCW was the place for her, too.\n\u201cI was attracted to the IMBA program at UNCW because of the positive reputation of the university, international job opportunities with major companies, and the chance to network with so many different people on different levels,\u201d she said.\nWhile they pursue different interests, both sisters have made their mark here.\nIn 2014 Elisabeth O\u2019Quinn won first place in the Innovation Concept Pitch Competition held at UNCW as part of Entrepreneurship Week. Her idea for a social media platform aimed at helping people find an exercise partner, aptly named \u201cWorkout Buddy,\u201d was worth $500 and a six-month membership at a local product development \u201cmaker space.\u201d\nShe recently returned to Wilmington after four months studying in Germany. She says her ultimate goal, after working a few years in the corporate finance world, is to start her own business, possibly in online retail.\nHer sister\u2019s plans will keep her rooted in academia. Erin O\u2019Quinn will finish her master\u2019s degree in May and is looking for schools with a strong English Ph.D. program, which she hopes will lead to a university faculty position. She was the 2014-15 recipient of the Christopher Gould Fellowship, awarded to a graduate student in the English Department based on achievement and academic ability.\nErin has received high praise from students she\u2019s helped in her roles as teaching assistant in the English department and a tutor in the University Learning Center. \u201cErin was absolutely amazing!\u201d one student wrote. \u201cThe essays I brought to the center have been stressing me out; her honesty and encouragement were quite refreshing.\u201d\nTheir physical resemblance often gets double takes, and it isn\u2019t unusual for a casual acquaintance to mistake one twin for the other. Erin is quick to point out one difference.\n\u201cI\u2019m nine minutes older,\u201d she grinned.\n--Tricia Vance\n#CSB\nThe UNCW family is thousands of people strong, but it takes individuals to make UNCW unique.

        "raw_content": "Samlifedinner, food, grownup, life, meal planningLeave a comment\nLast summer I turned 25 and have been inching closer and closer to that period in my life where I need to be a little more competent in the \u201cdomestics\u201d department. I\u2019ve been trying new things, here and there, in an attempt to \u201ctrain\u201d myself to be a \u201creal\u201d adult\u2026 ha. In other words, not setting off the smoke detector and thus scaring the pants off my poor dog every time I decide to put a pan on the stove. Yep- she knows what\u2019s up when she hears the clicking of the gas burner igniting\u2026 You\u2019d think the devil just invited her to dine in hell the way she wants out of the house.\nThe first step was moving out of my parents house. Ha. Just kidding. \ud83d\ude42 I certainly didn\u2019t have to wait until I was living under another roof to try and act like a grown woman who eats meals, instead of an irresponsible young adult who eats a series of snacks throughout the day. But, it was the nice little nudge I needed to start dabbling with adulthood.\nTo an undomestic wonder such as myself, cooking was scary, uncharted territory. To me, one practically needed a masters degree in maturity in order to properly cook a piece of chicken in order to prevent killing those you hoped to feed.\nIntroducing: the crock-pot. (If you don\u2019t have one, you need one. The recipes and possibilities are an endless journey into easy deliciousness.)\nA friend of mine back in Connecticut encouraged me to buy one of these gems, as it sounded like the perfect tool for someone with my level of competence \u2014 none. Basically, she made it sound as though you throw all the food in, turn it on, and then when you come back a number of hours later, your meal is ready, like magic. An electronic kitchen slave that does all the work for me?? Sold! Best $25 I\u2019ve ever spent. It has been responsible for 90% of the home cooked meals we have eaten since moving here. I know I\u2019m hardly doing anything aside from buying the ingredients and cutting fat off of meat, but nonetheless, I did feel slightly more accomplished knowing that the meals we were eating had been produced in my kitchen, and not in the microwave, from the freezer section of the grocery store.\nWhile this trusty device has been my willing servant for the last two months, I think it\u2019s time to try and pull myself out of the crock-pot, and try for a full-on baked whole chicken. I found a new website via Pinterest called GatheredTable.com where it gives you ideas and recipes to plan your weekly meals. You can drag items around, add, delete \u2014 it\u2019s neat.\nSince it\u2019s a brand new week, in a brand new month, I\u2019m going to try planning our dinners for the week, and buying all the groceries at once instead of making daily (yes, daily) trips to Walmart after work and buying what I need for what I\u2019m cooking that night. I\u2019m thinking three meals per week, and the in between days, repurposed leftovers. I\u2019ll (hopefully) learn a few things, and I can see if it\u2019s more cost effective to buy one day a week vs. heading to the store every night for random ingredients. Realistically it will probably end up being close in cost, just one lump sum vs. a bunch of smaller ones\u2026 but at least it will save me the hassle of dragging my butt to the store every afternoon, and that\u2019s enough to convince me!\nMaybe I can do this \u201cadulthood\u201d thing after all, ha. Wish me luck, and happy Sunday!\nSome of my favorite crock-pot recipes so far:\nPot Roast & Veggies",

Well known for raising the standard of heaviness on their pioneering, boundary destroying work the duo will continue their decades long quest to push extreme metal to its limits and continue to set the bar for absolute brutality beyond the reach of any of today\u2019s heaviest bands. SUBMERGED promises to be one of the most monumentally heavy, experimental, atmospheric, and ominous projects that the two have been a part of, and will be an absolutely monstrous addition to their already unparalleled bodies of work. The group will release a full length this year on Unique Leader Records.\nJoining Way and Lindmark in SUBMERGED are bassist Eric Little of the upcoming and widely respected slam masters Visceral Disgorge and phenomenal drummer Alex Gal of Foul Deformity. The two provide an extraordinarily tight rhythm section and are further proof of the band\u2019s devastating potential.\nThe band has released a trailer which you can view here on their YouTube page.\nMore news on SUBMERGED in the coming weeks.\nhttps://twitter.com/Submergedband\nhttps://www.facebook.com/submergedbandofficial\nhttps://www.instagram.com/submerged.ulr/",

        "title": "Copwatching Everywhere \u2013 Upping the Anti",
        "raw_content": "In \u201cTheir Eyes Were Watching Cops,\u201d Joaquin Cienfuegos talks about his experiences of political organizing, specifically with Copwatch LA. As a member of Winnipeg Copwatch, I found his insights to be incredibly valuable.\nWinnipeg\u2019s Copwatch group has been active since 2006. Throughout its entire first year, we considered similar issues that are brought up in this article, and we continue to discuss and reassess them. These include questions about organizing in neighbourhoods that none of us live in; questions about what it means to be a predominately white group doing this sort of work, especially within racialized neighbourhoods; and questions about what outcomes, both negative and positive, our group\u2019s tactics have in the short and long term.\nWinnipeg Copwatch came together as a result of a collective trauma that resulted from a series of politically motivated arrests and police assaults. While many of us had been doing anti-state violence work prior to these events, this particular injustice brought in a much more personal level of anger and motivation to our work. The work became, in a sense, a way for many of us to heal from these experiences.\nIn the beginning, Winnipeg Copwatch worked alongside a group called the Manitoba Aboriginal Justice Equality Coalition (MAJEC). When the discussion of doing street patrols came up, members of MAJEC suggested that this was an area in which white members of Copwatch needed to participate. For many of us, patrols go against our instincts to run and hide from the police; instead, we are directly positioning ourselves in active and visible opposition to them. This doesn\u2019t tend to put us on the police\u2019s good side. MAJEC felt that, as Indigenous people, they were at higher risk of police repression and that white members should use their privilege in these situations.\nThese concerns and opinions were not taken lightly. Before going out on any patrols, we spent a lot of time talking about what it meant to be a predominantly white group of people going into racialized neighbourhoods for the purpose of copwatching. Our group had very few connections in place with these neighbourhoods. We were unsure about how to begin fostering relationships with these communities, and whether or not this was the best route to take. These are discussions that our group continues to have today.\nIn his article, Cienfuegos emphasizes Copwatch LA\u2019s rule that \u201cIf you don\u2019t live in a particular neighbourhood or weren\u2019t invited to be there, you shouldn\u2019t be doing copwatch there because you\u2019re not going to face the repercussions.\u201d I believe that this is one of the most important things for a Copwatch group to consider. Copwatch patrols often involve entering racialized and criminalized neighbourhoods with video cameras. We wanted to avoid having Winnipeg Copwatch enter neighbourhoods that we don\u2019t have any personal connections with and risk making an embarrassing display of the patronizing white saviour complex. Rather than working in solidarity with these communities towards their safety, we risked acting like presumptuous superheros, swooping in heroically, filming the police, swooping out to the safety of our white privilege, and patting ourselves on the backs. All the while, just as Cienfuegos suggests, the people who live in these marginalized areas would be left to deal with the repercussions.\nWinnipeg Copwatch also talked about how our presence with video cameras might affect certain underground economies, such as sex work. Our cameras can cause the people engaging in these economies to feel threatened, potentially resulting in them being pushed to more dangerous spaces. Fear of being videotaped and what that has often represented could put many people at risk. In these situations, our copwatching could do more harm than good.\nWe understand that in order for people to feel safe in our presence, and for our work to come from a place of solidarity rather than charity, a large portion of what we do needs to be about building and strengthening relationships, especially with those who routinely encounter the police. Consequently, before doing any patrols on the street, we spent an entire year getting to know people. We held healing circles, offered free workshops, gave out food, and provided spaces for people to talk critically about the police. We also held movie nights and went door-to-door (to organizations as well as peoples\u2019 homes) to invite individuals and groups out to various events we organized.\nI think the time spent building these relationships was invaluable. I also found that when we started to do the street patrols, we began to connect with a whole different group of people than those we had connected with through our events. People would see our \u201cstop police brutality\u201d patches and cross the street to come talk to us about their experiences with police. People would invite us into their homes, to parties, benches, and other hangouts, to share ideas on how to resist police brutality. We were able to build incredibly important relationships, many of which continue to exist today.\nSince our first street patrol, we\u2019ve grown a lot as a group. Of course we still have a lot to learn and will continue critiquing and processing the work we do and the way we do it. Thank you to Upping the Anti and to Joaquin Cienfuegos for encouraging these conversations.\nAlex Stearns",

Bladder Cancer occurs in tissues of the bladder \u201cthe organ that stores urine\u201d. Bladder cancers are transitional cell carcinomas (cancer that begins in cells that normally make up the inner lining of the bladder). Other types include squamous cell carcinoma (cancer that begins in thin, flat cells) and adenocarcinoma (cancer that begins in cells that make and release mucus and other fluids). The cells that form squamous cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma develop in the inner lining of the bladder as a result of chronic irritation and inflammation.\nBladder cancer symptoms include painless blood in the urine or frequent and painful urination. Bladder cancer is highly treatable with options such as surgery, chemotherapy and radiation.\nWhether you (or a loved one) are worried about developing bladder cancer, have just been diagnosed, are going through treatment, or are trying to stay well after treatment come to us to get a professional advice with experienced Doctors.",

        "raw_content": "Telling about subjective experience: autobiographical writing in the logbooks narrative\nAll human writing is influenced by our life histories. Each word we write represents an encounter, possibly a struggle, between our multiple past experience and the demands of a new context. Autobiographical writing is never some neutral activity which we just learn like a physical skill, but it implicates every fibre of the writer\u2019s multifaceted being. This article would like to describe the autobiographical technique of the journal, the logbook, as a way of learning wherein students, more generally people, relate an experience lived to their thoughts and feeling. The logbooks, as narrative self-reports, combine an autobiographical style with a subjective investigation of feelings and a theoretical understanding. We would like to explain the first part of a research where the logbooks, as autobiographical narratives, have been adopted and adapted in the research investigation, in order to understand how was produced knowledge and transformation of meaning perspectives thanks to the experience carried out. Within the framework of the Theatre of the Oppressed (Boal, 2005; Romano, 2014), that is a theatrical technique developed in the 60s by Augusto Boal, quickly spread throughout the world, as one of the most effective weapons for social participation, were conducted at University of Naples four workshops with the methodologies of the Theatre of the Oppressed, with graduate and undergraduate students. The data were gathered through the adoption of qualitative tools. The research methodology, in fact, involves the collection of logbooks, narrative self-reports, in which the participants in the workshops of Theatre of the Oppressed describe their subjective perception of the experience, focusing on what happened and what were the individual and group resonances. Embedding some excerpts from participants\u2019 logbooks, we would like to show the usefulness and the trustworthiness of the logbooks as narrative autobiographical tools for exploring potential and eventual transformation in the field of adult education.\nTitolo: Telling about subjective experience: autobiographical writing in the logbooks narrative\nRivista: METIS\nCitazione: Romano, A.

        "title": "Story Honoring Mr. Paxton - Utrust",
        "raw_content": "Story Honoring Mr. Paxton\nBy: Ariana Baxley\nThere\u2019s a teacher at Trousdale County High School named Mr. Paxton. Mr. Paxton has inspired me to be a good, kind, and Christian person with a strong work ethic. Not only was he a Special Ed teacher in the middle school, but he is also a bus driver, assistant band director, and the person who\u2019s in charge of the alternative school during school hours.\nBefore Mr. Paxton started working in the alternative school, he worked as the Special Ed science teacher in the middle school for several years. Even though I was never in his class, I\u2019ve heard nothing but good things about him and his teaching ability. His past students have told of how patient he was with them. If just one person was having a problem, he would do anything he could to help them understand and get caught up with the rest of the class.\nAlong with being a well-respected teacher, Mr. Paxton is also a bus driver. I have been riding Mr. Paxton\u2019s bus to and from school ever since I started kindergarten. He is a very talented bus driver and he is always in control. Everyone on the bus respects him and behaves in a well-behaved, disciplined manner while on his bus. He always works hard to keep his bus clean and in good shape so the ride is as enjoyable as possible.\nAs well as driving the bus for the school, Mr. Paxton also drives the bus for all the band trips as the assistant band director. As assistant band director, Mr. Paxton must: drive the band to the concerts, football games, competitions, and other various places that we need to go; find the best, easiest, safest routes to get where we\u2019re going as quickly as possible; plan itineraries and figure out what time we need to be wherever we\u2019re going, how long it will take to get there, when we need to leave, and when we will get back home. Believe it or not, that isn\u2019t even half of everything Mr. Paxton has to do for the band. I could go on for hours about all the things he does for us and all the ways that he inspires us in school and out of school.\nSpeaking of \u201cout of school\u201d, Mr. Paxton was also appointed just last year to be in charge of the new alternative school during the day. In my opinion, Mr. Paxton was chosen for this job because everyone respects him and he has amazing leadership skills that enable him to get people to have and show some discipline while around him. Just his presence and the way he carries himself demands respect and show authority. Of course, just like his former Special Ed students, everyone who comes out of the alternative has to admit (no matter how much they don\u2019t want to) that they really did learn while they were in there and that Mr. Paxton is a really good teacher. In conclusion, I\u2019d just like to say that I believe Mr. Paxton is a very inspirational man, and anyone that gets to know him will be affected or changed in some way. I admire his work ethic because even though he has a busy and hectic schedule with all his bus driving, band directing, and teaching he never stops helping. He rarely gets to go home and just spend time with his family because his weekdays are filled with school and band practice in the evenings, while his weekends are taken up by football games, competitions, and worshipping God. Even with all these things which surely must exhaust and frustrate him at times, he never stops going. If one of the band kids needs him, he\u2019ll always be there in a heartbeat. For all these reasons and more, I believe that Mr. Steve Paxton is one of the most inspirational and admirable people that I\u2019ve ever met in my whole life.",

There is a wide choice of trails for all tastes and levels, from short family friendly strolls or longer enjoyable walks, to half or full day hikes.\nWalk in Vall de Bo\u00ed is much more than just to enjoy the landscape: it is to take a walk through history; to go back in time and relive a part of our ancestors\u2019 way of life; to travel to the times when cars where merely science fiction and people had to make long journeys on foot in order to sell their animals at the cattle market or even to go courting.\nThe ancient trails are, thus, trails which have been used for many years by men and animals to go from one village to the other. To recondition these trails means, above all, to walk along them; to enjoy their landscapes and the animal and vegetal wild life that walks us on our way, but also to take pleasure in the dry-stone walls, retaining walls and cobblestones that were so patiently placed ther and now allow us, many centuries later, to retrace the steps of our ancestors.\nThe strolls we suggest are specially conceived for families. They are 15 to 30 minute strolls along flat terrain, following the trails that go from a village to a chapel, a shrine, a viewpoint,\nThe walks follow the ancient trails that connect the villages of the valley and therefore, they go from one village to the next.\nThe suggested hikes are longer routes of approximately 2 to 3 hours within the bounds of the National Park.",

He died while on death row in 2013.\nMegan Griffiths is directing from her own script. Producers are Alisa Tager (\u201cEnemy at the Gates\u201d) and Matthew R.

        "title": "The Reason Why Hindu Gods Have Multiple Arms and Heads",
        "raw_content": "In Hinduism, Deities are often depicted with multiple arms. These arms become visible when they are battling with cosmic forces. The pictorial representation of Hindu Gods having multiple arms in the human form is the artist\u2019s attempt to express the supreme powers of Gods. It shows their immense strength and power to perform numerous acts at a single time.\nThe multiple arms of Hindu Gods show the greater power of Deities over the humans.\nEach hand holds some object which symbolizes the various qualities of that particular deity. Some hands are shown empty but with different mudras (position) of the fingers and palms that signify the character of God. For instance, when the fingers are pointing towards the ground, they convey the charitable nature of God, whereas, when the fingers point upwards, in the form of a blessing, convey the protective nature of God.\nThe number of arms varies basis the symbolism portrayed. Usually, Deities are shown having four arms each holding a different object having a different significance. For instance, Lord Ganesha.\nThe Abhaya Mudra translated to English means a gesture of fearlessness (Abhaya = fearless, mudra=gesture). In this gesture, Ganesha\u2019s lower right hand symbolizes his grace, blessings, and protection on a person\u2019s journey through life. Holding an axe in his upper right hand, Ganesha symbolizes detachment that is, to cut off all attachments. He holds a rope in his upper left hand to pull the devotees nearer to the spiritual path. It is said that Ganesha offers rewards in the form of modak (sweets) for penances (sadhana) done with the modak which he holds in his lower left hand.\nAt times, the Deity is also shown with more than one head. This representation symbolizes the various aspects of the character of that deity. For example, when the god Shiva is portrayed with a triple head, the central face indicates his essential character and the flanking faces depict his fierce and blissful natures.\nAs per Ancient Indian mythology,\nLord Brahma formerly possessed one head. When he created a woman, Shatarupa, from his own body, Brahma fell in love with his own female creation. He could not escape his eyes from her astounding beauty. As Shatarupa felt shy, she tried to elude his gaze by moving away on all sides. It is believed that to follow Shatarupa wherever she moved, Brahma created his FIVE heads, facing each side, East, West, North, and South and one facing upwards.\nThis behavior of Brahma infuriated Lord Shiva, and as a result, he chopped off his fifth head facing upwards. Therefore, Lord Brahma is portrayed with four heads.\nLike Hindu Deities, the Vedas mention of demons as well having multiple heads and arms. This depiction is done to convey their superhuman power.\nREAD The physical and spiritual concept of Soulmates in Hindu Dharma",

        "raw_content": "This battle for the domination of the galaxy took place over several games, sequels, and spin-offs. The last installment of the series - Wing Commander: Secret Ops - was released back in 1998.\nWith no more WC games since, it seemed as though we have lost our beloved heroes. But one day a group of dedicated fans, who waited several years for a sequel, realized that Wing Commander will not be continued. They gathered a group of talented programmers and game designers and went to work. The result of this tedious effort is the Prologue for the Wing Commander Saga game.\nThe story starts right after the Battle of Earth, a terrible battle in which a Kilrathi armada came close to exterminating humanity, and a year before the end of the War (spoilers: the Kilrathi homeworld of Kilrah is destroyed). The main character, a young Second Lieutenant named David Markham, is a young rookie assigned to the TCS Wellington \u2013 a very old and obsolete carrier. This ship was going to play a role in the opening stages of the counterattack on the Kilrathi Homeworld. The developers, driven by their ambition, passion, and drive, created an interesting story about heroism, love and loss. In the course of 40 (!) missions you will face the terrible battle for survival, in which, as we will learn, there is no right and wrong, but only pain, loss and suffering.\nGameplay of the Wing Commander Saga Prologue should be familiar to anyone who played any game in the Wing Commander series. The Terran and Kilrathi arsenal contains various fighters, bombers, frigates, destroyers, cruisers, and carriers. You will be in control of fighter vessels only and will be dogfighting with enemy fighter squadrons. Missions are dynamic with different goals, but usually you're supposed to eliminate every opposition encountered.\nThe developers have succeeded in their attempt to preserve the atmosphere of the Wing Commander series. During missions, additional goals pop up periodically. The story is unpredictable and the radio is full of pilot chatter. Pilots trade jokes, comment about current events, and make fun of other pilots.\nWing Commander Saga: Prologue is based on the Freespace 2 engine. The graphics are very decent - for a free game of course. Very neat special effects, decent war ships models, good character animation. It should be noted, that for an amateur product, the game is put together very professionally. We did not encounter any bugs or other problems that common with freeware programs. This is indeed a very well made and very polished looking product.\nBefore we conclude, we should let you know that this fantastic game is completely free. You can get it straight from our DVD and become part of the epic struggle between the Terrans and the feline Kilrathi. In the Wing Commander Saga Prologue, older gamers will become reminiscent of good old days and younger fans of space simulators will definitely enjoy this sequel of one of the greatest game series of all time.",

        "raw_content": "All the President's Men (film)\nAll the President's Men is a 1976 American political thriller film about the Watergate scandal, which brought down the presidency of Richard M. Nixon. Directed by Alan J. Pakula with a screenplay by William Goldman, it is based on the 1974 non-fiction book of the same name by Carl Bernstein and Bob Woodward, the two journalists investigating the Watergate scandal for The Washington Post. The film stars Robert Redford and Dustin Hoffman as Woodward and Bernstein, respectively; it was produced by Walter Coblenz for Redford's Wildwood Enterprises.\nThe film was nominated in multiple Oscar, Golden Globe and BAFTA categories, and in 2010 was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress as being \"culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant\".\n6 \"All The President's Men\" Revisited\nOn June 17, 1972, security guard Frank Wills at the Watergate complex finds a door's bolt taped over so that it will not lock. He calls the police, who find and arrest five burglars in the Democratic National Committee headquarters within the complex. The next morning, The Washington Post assigns new reporter Bob Woodward to the local courthouse to cover the story, which is considered of minor importance.\nWoodward learns that the five men, four Cuban-Americans from Miami and James W. McCord, Jr., had electronic bugging equipment and are represented by a high-priced \"country club\" attorney. At the arraignment, McCord identifies himself in court as having recently left the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and the others are also revealed to have CIA ties. Woodward connects the burglars to E. Howard Hunt, a former employee of the CIA, and President Richard Nixon's Special Counsel Charles Colson.\nCarl Bernstein, another Post reporter, is assigned to cover the Watergate story with Woodward. The two young men are reluctant partners, but work well together. Executive editor Benjamin Bradlee believes their work lacks reliable sources and is not worthy of the Post's front page, but he encourages further investigation.\nWoodward contacts a senior government official, an anonymous source whom he has used before and refers to as \"Deep Throat.\" Communicating secretly, using a flag placed in a balcony flowerpot to signal meetings, they meet at night in an underground parking garage. Deep Throat speaks in riddles and metaphors, avoiding substantial facts about the Watergate break-in, but keeps advising Woodward to \"follow the money.\"\nWoodward and Bernstein manage to connect the five burglars to corrupt activities around campaign contributions to Nixon's Committee to Re-elect the President (CREEP). This includes a check for $25,000 paid to Kenneth H. Dahlberg, whom Miami authorities identified when investigating the Miami-based burglars. Still, Bradlee and others at the Post doubt the investigation and its dependence on sources such as Deep Throat, wondering why the Nixon administration should break the law when the President is almost certain to defeat his opponent, Democratic nominee George McGovern.\nThrough former CREEP treasurer Hugh W. Sloan, Jr., Woodward and Bernstein connect a slush fund of hundreds of thousands of dollars to White House Chief of Staff H. R. Haldeman\u2014\"the second most important man in this country\"\u2014and to former Attorney General John N. Mitchell, now head of CREEP. They learn that CREEP was financing a \"ratfucking\" campaign to sabotage Democratic presidential candidates a year before the Watergate burglary, when Nixon was lagging Edmund Muskie in the polls.\nWhile Bradlee's demand for thoroughness compels the reporters to obtain other sources to confirm the Haldeman connection, the White House issues a non-denial denial of the Post's above-the-fold story. The editor continues to encourage investigation.\nWoodward again meets secretly with Deep Throat, and demands he be less evasive. Deep Throat reveals that Haldeman masterminded the Watergate break-in and cover-up. He also states that the cover-up was not just to camouflage the CREEP involvement but to hide \"covert operations\" involving \"the entire U.S. intelligence community\", including the FBI and CIA. He warns Woodward and Bernstein that their lives, and others, are in danger. When the two relay this to Bradlee, he urges them to carry on despite the risk from Nixon's re-election.\nOn January 20, 1973, Bernstein and Woodward type the full story, while a television in the foreground shows Nixon taking the Oath of Office for his second term as President. A montage of Watergate-related teletype headlines from the following year is shown, ending with Nixon's resignation and the inauguration of Vice President Gerald Ford on August 9, 1974.\nJack Warden as Harry M.

He has said Bob Woodward was extremely helpful to him but Carl Bernstein was not. Goldman has written that his crucial decision as to structure was to throw away the second half of the book.[6] After he delivered his first draft in August 1974, Warners agreed to finance the movie.\nRedford said he was not happy with Goldman's first draft.[5] Woodward and Bernstein also read it and did not like it. Redford asked for their suggestions, but Bernstein and his girlfriend, writer Nora Ephron, wrote their own draft. Redford showed this draft to Goldman, suggesting there might be some material he could use; Goldman later called Redford's acceptance of the Bernstein\u2013Ephron draft a \"gutless betrayal\".[7] Redford later expressed dissatisfaction with the Ephron\u2013Bernstein draft, saying, \"a lot of it was sophomoric and way off the beat\".[5] According to Goldman, \"in what they wrote, Bernstein was sure catnip to the ladies\".[7] He also says a scene of Bernstein and Ephron's made it to the final film, a bit where Bernstein outfakes a secretary in order to see someone\u2014something that was not factually true.\nAlan J. Pakula was hired to direct and requested rewrites from Goldman. In a 2011 biography, Redford claimed that he and Pakula held all-day sessions working on the script. The director also spent hours interviewing editors and reporters, taking notes of their comments.\nLater in 2011, Richard Stayton published an investigative article debunking the claims that the material Pakula and Redford rewrote for the screenplay was significant to the finished film. Stayton, who published his report in Written By magazine, compared several drafts of the script, including the final production draft. He concluded that Goldman was properly credited as the writer and that the final draft had \"William Goldman's distinct signature on each page\".[8]\nRedford first selected Al Pacino to play Bernstein, but after some thought, he decided that Dustin Hoffman was a better fit for the role.\nJason Robards was always Redford's choice to play Ben Bradlee. Bradlee initially recommended George C. Scott for the role, and he was somewhat unimpressed when Robards showed up at the Post offices to develop a feel for the newsroom. In advance of the shoot, Bradlee told Robards: \"Just don't make me look like an asshole\". At first, Pakula was worried that Robards could not carry Bradlee's easy elegance and command authority. Karl Malden, Hal Holbrook (who would play Deep Throat), John Forsythe, Leslie Nielsen, Henry Fonda, Richard Widmark, Christopher Plummer, Anthony Quinn, Gene Hackman, Burt Lancaster, Robert Stack, Robert Mitchum and Telly Savalas were also considered for the role.[9]\nCharacter actor Martin Balsam played managing editor Howard Simons. According to Bradlee, Simons felt that he and his role were fatally shortchanged in the script and that he never got over his resentment.\nBradlee teased The Post publisher Katharine Graham about who would play her in the film. \u201cNames like Katharine Hepburn, Lauren Bacall and Patricia Neal were tossed out\u2014by us\u2014to make her feel good,\u201d Bradlee said. \u201cAnd names like Edna May Oliver or Marie Dressler, if it felt like teasing time. And then her role was dropped from the final script, half to her relief.\u201d[10]\nHoffman and Redford visited the Post offices for months, sitting in on news conferences and conducting research for their roles.[5] As the Post denied the production permission to shoot in its newsroom, set designers took measurements of the newspaper's offices, and photographed everything. Boxes of trash were gathered and transported to sets recreating the newsroom on two soundstages in Hollywood's Burbank Studios at a cost of $200,000. The filmmakers went to great lengths for accuracy and authenticity, including making replicas of outdated phone books.[5] Nearly 200 desks at $500 apiece were purchased from the same firm that sold desks to the Post in 1971. The desks were painted the same color as those of the newsroom. The production was supplied with a brick from the main lobby of the Post so that it could be duplicated in fiberglass for the set. Principal photography began on May 12, 1975, in Washington, D.C.[5]\nThe billing followed the formula of James Stewart and John Wayne in John Ford's The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance (1962), with Redford billed over Hoffman in the posters and trailers, and Hoffman billed above Redford in the film itself.[citation needed]\nAll the President's Men grossed $70.6 million at the box office.[1]\nOn review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes it has an approval rating of 93% based on 54 reviews. The website's consensus reads: \"A taut, solidly acted paean to the benefits of a free press and the dangers of unchecked power, made all the more effective by its origins in real-life events.\"[11] On Metacritic which gives a weighted average score, the film has a score of 80 out of 100, based on reviews from 13 critics, indicating \"generally favorable reviews\".[12]\nRoger Ebert of the Chicago Sun-Times gave it \u200b3 3\u20444 out of 4, and wrote: \"It provides the most observant study of working journalists we're ever likely to see in a feature film. And it succeeds brilliantly in suggesting the mixture of exhilaration, paranoia, self-doubt, and courage that permeated the Washington Post as its two young reporters went after a presidency.\"[13] Variety magazine praised \"ingenious direction [...] and scripting\" which overcame the difficult lack of drama that a story about reporters running down a story might otherwise have.[14] Dave Kehr of the Chicago Reader was critical of the writing and called the film \"pedestrian\" and \"a study in missed opportunities\".[15]\nIn 2007, it was added to the AFI's 100 Years... 100 Movies (10th Anniversary Edition) list at No. 77. AFI also named it No. 34 on its America's Most Inspiring Movies list and No. 57 on the Top 100 Thrilling Movies. The characters of Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein shared the rank of No. 27 (Heroes) on AFI's 100 Years... 100 Heroes and Villains list. Entertainment Weekly ranked All the President's Men as one of its 25 \"Powerful Political Thrillers\".[16]\nAcademy Awards[17][18]\nBest Art Direction Art Direction: George Jenkins; Set Decoration:\nGeorge Gaines Won\nBest Director Alan J.

It simultaneously recounts how the Washington Post broke Watergate and how the scandal unfolded, going behind the scenes of the film. It explores how the Watergate scandal would be covered in the present day, whether such a scandal could happen again, and who Richard Nixon was as a man. W. Mark Felt, Deputy Director of the FBI during the early 1970s, revealed in 2005 his role as Deep Throat during the investigation; this is also covered.\nFootage from the film is used, as well as interviews with central characters and actors such as Woodward, Bernstein, Redford, Hoffman, Bradlee and John Dean and also with contemporary media figures such as Tom Brokaw, Jill Abramson, Rachel Maddow and Jon Stewart. The documentary earned a 2013 Emmy nomination for Outstanding Documentary Or Nonfiction Special.[20][21]\n^ a b \"All the President's Men, Box Office Information\". Box Office Mojo.

Watergate scandal \u2013 When the conspiracy was discovered and investigated by the U. S. Congress, the Nixon administrations resistance to its probes led to a constitutional crisis. The term Watergate, by metonymy, has come to encompass an array of clandestine and those activities included such dirty tricks as bugging the offices of political opponents and people of whom Nixon or his officials were suspicious. The scandal also resulted in the indictment of 69 people, with trials or pleas resulting in 48 being found guilty, the affair began with the arrest of five men for breaking and entering into the DNC headquarters at the Watergate complex on Saturday, June 17,1972. In July 1973, evidence mounted against the Presidents staff, including testimony provided by staff members in an investigation conducted by the Senate Watergate Committee. The investigation revealed that President Nixon had a system in his offices. After a protracted series of court battles, the U. S. Supreme Court unanimously ruled that the president was obliged to release the tapes to government investigators. The tapes revealed that Nixon had attempted to cover up activities that took place after the break-in, facing virtually certain impeachment in the House of Representatives and equally certain conviction by the Senate, Nixon resigned the presidency on August 9,1974. On September 8,1974, his successor, Gerald Ford, the name Watergate and the suffix -gate have since become synonymous with political and non-political scandals in the United States. According to Dean, this marked the scene of the worst political scandal of the twentieth century. Mitchell viewed the plan as unrealistic, Liddy was nominally in charge of the operation, but has since insisted that he was duped by Dean and at least two of his subordinates. These included former CIA officers E. Howard Hunt and James McCord, in May, McCord assigned former FBI agent Alfred C. Baldwin III to carry out the wiretapping and monitor the telephone conversations afterward. McCord testified that he selected Baldwins name from a registry published by the Society of Former Special Agents of the FBI to work for the Committee to Re-elect the President, Baldwin first served as bodyguard to Martha Mitchell, the wife of John Mitchell, who was living in Washington.

The Committee replaced Baldwin with another security man, the room 419 was booked in the name of McCord\u2019s company. At behest of G. Gordon Liddy and E. Howard Hunt, McCord and his team of burglars prepared for their first Watergate break-in, two phones inside the offices of the DNC headquarters were said to have been wiretapped. The FBI found no evidence that OBriens phone was bugged, however, it was determined that an effective listening device had been installed in Olivers phone. Despite the success in installing the devices, the Committee agents soon determined that they needed to be repaired. They planned a burglary in order to take care of this\n8. Journalist \u2013 A journalist is a person who collects, writes, or distributes news or other current information. A journalists work is called journalism, a journalist can work with general issues or specialize in certain issues. However, most journalists tend to specialize, and by cooperating with other journalists, for example, a sports journalist covers news within the world of sports, but this journalist may be a part of a newspaper that covers many different topics. A reporter is a type of journalist who researches, writes, and reports on information in order to present in sources, conduct interviews, engage in research, and make reports. The information-gathering part of a job is sometimes called reporting. Reporters may split their time working in a newsroom and going out to witness events or interviewing people. Reporters may be assigned a beat or area of coverage. Depending on the context, the term journalist may include various types of editors, editorial writers, columnists, Journalism has developed a variety of ethics and standards. While objectivity and a lack of bias are of concern and importance, more liberal types of journalism, such as advocacy journalism and activism. This has become prevalent with the advent of social media and blogs, as well as other platforms that are used to manipulate or sway social and political opinions. These platforms often project extreme bias, as sources are not always held accountable or considered necessary in order to produce a written, nor did they often directly experience most social problems, or have direct access to expert insights. These limitations were made worse by a media that tended to over-simplify issues and to reinforce stereotypes, partisan viewpoints. As a consequence, Lippmann believed that the public needed journalists like himself who could serve as analysts, guiding \u201ccitizens to a deeper understanding of what was really important. \u201dJournalists sometimes expose themselves to danger. Organizations such as the Committee to Protect Journalists and Reporters Without Borders publish reports on press freedom, as of November 2011, the Committee to Protect Journalists reports that 887 journalists have been killed worldwide since 1992 by murder, crossfire or combat, or on dangerous assignment. The ten deadliest countries for journalists since 1992 have been Iraq, Philippines, Russia, Colombia, Mexico, Algeria, Pakistan, India, Somalia, Brazil and Sri Lanka. The Committee to Protect Journalists also reports that as of December 1st 2010,145 journalists were jailed worldwide for journalistic activities. The ten countries with the largest number of currently-imprisoned journalists are Turkey, China, Iran, Eritrea, Burma, Uzbekistan, Vietnam, Cuba, Ethiopia, apart from the physical harm, journalists are harmed psychologically. This applies especially to war reporters, but their offices at home often do not know how to deal appropriately with the reporters they expose to danger\n9.

        "raw_content": "Thermal Spray is the method that involves heating materials in order to spray onto solidified materials, creating a coating or seal. Using this method creates a thick and effective coating in less time than other coating methods. There are many advantages that come with using thermal spraying.\nBenefits Of Thermal Spray\nAs heated particles flatten and bond tightly to the substrate, thermal spraying is versatile. In other words, regardless of the coating material, by choosing thermal spray you have a comprehensive choice of coating materials that will meet your application needs, including strong protection from damage such as corrosion and wear. Thermal spraying is not restricted to certain substrates. It has the capacity to form functional coatings and barriers on a number of different surfaces. However, it is not necessary for the coating made by thermal spraying to fuse with the substrate to create a bond.\nAnother great aspect of thermal spraying is using minimal heating to create a solid coat on the substrate. Coatings can also be applied to substrates that are heat sensitive such as plastics and low melting point metals. In addition, coatings such as metal, ceramic, and cermet, is applicable to any substrate that withstands the heat of gas jets and impinging particles. As thick coatings of thermal spray can often be applied at high deposition rates, it shows that thermal spraying is also great for component reclamation. At a low cost, usually at a fraction of the replacement price, parts can be rebuilt quite quickly. With thermal spraying being recognized as a key process for combining specialized materials and coatings, it has the ability to create freestanding structures for ceramics of high performance and graded materials. Thermal spraying has been used for rapid solidification and is advancing into the synthesis of advanced surfaces such as solid oxide fuel cells, dielectrics, ferrites, and bioactive materials.\nAt Wilcox, our thermal spraying implementation will provide your product with three key advantages. Your product will see an increase in productivity and performance and a reduction of failure downtime. As such, thermal spraying will improve your product\u2019s properties where and when you need them the most. By investing in this process, your product will last longer and save you the time and effort to look for replacements or a replica. Wilcox High Velocity uses thermal spray on a variety of materials including the following:\nSoft Alloys\nDepending on your materials, different processes might be involved in the completion of your project, each with its unique method. Applications may sometimes overlap in the sense that in addition to thermal spraying, hard facing may also be an acceptable solution to providing your project with resistant surfaces. As we take great care in completing your project in a timely manner, we will evaluate which method will be the most beneficial and efficient to get the job done.\nThermal Spray Processes\nWith our ability to use a variety of materials and techniques to fit the specifications and needs of your project, there are a variety of thermal spray techniques we utilize. Some of our technique examples include the following:\nHigh-Velocity Oxy-Fuel Coating Spraying (HVOF)\nWire arc spray is a form of the thermal spray that involves two consumable metal wires being fed independently into a spray gun. This process is often a favorite by customers and ourselves. Wire arc spray allows us to apply advanced coating materials inexpensively and quickly at high efficient rates. As such, this method often translates into savings to our happy customers. Flame spraying is far more advanced and has similar advantages to the other processes, particularly easy application at a lost cost. The flame spray process is easy to operate and simple in design with lower equipment costs compared to plasma and HVOF. With high deposition rates, the deposited coating costs are much lower than most thermal spraying processes. Lastly, advantages to HVOF primarily lie within improving coat quality. This thermal process has tougher coatings which increase your product\u2019s wear resistance and improved corrosion protection.\nThermal spray can be a difficult concept to understand when you\u2019re not in the industry. We\u2019ve outlined briefly the advantages to you investing in his helpful welding process. If you are interested in further information about thermal spraying, here is a comprehensive overview on what thermal spray consists of and its processes.

        "raw_content": "Britain's Prime Minister Theresa May leaves 10 Downing Street in London, bound for the House of Commons to face Prime Minister's Questions, Wednesday July 4, 2018. (Dominic Lipinski/PA via AP)\nUK Cabinet proclaims Brexit unity _ but many hurdles ahead\nLONDON (AP) \u2014 Britain's prime minister is claiming victory in her bid to unite her fractious Cabinet behind her latest Brexit policy, but many hurdles lie ahead.\nTheresa May is seeking to squelch public dissent from Conservative Party colleagues by warning ministers she will no longer tolerate public criticism of government policy now that the Cabinet has backed her following a 12-hour meeting that ended late Friday night.\n\"She's made it very clear that if people can't stick to her position then they should go, and I think that's good,\" Conservative Party legislator Nicky Morgan said Saturday.\nIn widely broadcast comments, May said the Cabinet endorsed plans for a future free-trade deal with the European Union that would keep some close ties to the bloc even as it ends freedom of movement between Britain and the EU. The proposal would allow free movement of goods, but not of services.\nThe agreement hammered out at the prime minister's country residence resolves \u2014 for the moment \u2014 a long-running dispute within the Cabinet over whether to sever all ties with the EU or seek a more limited Brexit to help businesses accustomed to trading with continental Europe without customs payments or burdensome paperwork.\nSince becoming prime minister nearly two years ago, May \u2014 whose party does not enjoy a majority in Parliament \u2014 has tolerated outspoken criticism from senior ministers, most notably Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson, who wants a total break with the EU.\nShe has now signaled however, in a letter to Conservative Party legislators, that ministers who dissent in public will be dismissed now that \"collective responsibility\" has been restored.\nThe plan, which will be elaborated on in great detail in a formal government document expected next week, brings May squarely down on the side those favoring a \"soft\" Brexit that would make it easier for many businesses to operate without new barriers being erected between Britain and continental Europe.\nIt's unclear how EU negotiators will react to the plan, which seems to fly in the face of EU warnings that the UK cannot pick and choose which aspects of EU membership it would like to keep, and it is already angering hard-line Brexiteers who advocate a total break with the EU.\nConservative legislator Jacob Rees-Mogg said he is waiting to see details but would vote against the plan if it retains too many ties to the EU.\n\"This will require legislation and if, when we get the detailed legislation, it turns out that it is a punishment Brexit, that it is keeping us in the European Union in all but name, I will stick to the Conservative Party's manifesto commitments and will not vote for it,\" he told the BBC.\nHe said May's plan may be worse than leaving the EU without any deal at all.\n\"As with eggs: An egg that is very softly boiled isn't boiled at all. A very soft Brexit means that we haven't left, we are simply a rule-taker. That is not something that this country voted for, it is not what the prime minister promised,\" he said.\nLabour Party leader Jeremy Corbyn said Saturday the new plan may well \"unravel\" in the coming days.\nScottish First Minister Nicola Sturgeon, an outspoken opponent of Brexit, tweeted that the proposal contains \"more realism\" than earlier plans and may be a step forward. But she made it clear she would lobby for more changes.\nBut some business leaders say the plan would bring badly needed clarity to the muddled Brexit talks with the EU.\nBusiness Secretary Greg Clark says the plan is \"very positive\" and would allow business supply chains to operate without new barriers, helping protect British jobs.",

        "raw_content": "Winchester poet: \"Good poetry forces you to face your truth.\"\nThis week the Winchester Star caught up with local poet Julia Cirignano to learn more about her new poetry collection titled \"White Wine and Medical Marijuana.\" Julia will speak about her book and read her poetry at Book Ends on Sunday, April 15 at 2 p.m.\nWhat inspired you to write this collection?\nFor most of the poetry in this collection, I wouldn\u2019t say that I necessarily wrote them planning to publish this book. Most of these poems were written in sudden spurts of inspiration, frustration, confusion, heartbreak or love. I didn\u2019t really have a drawn-out plan to publish a book, although once I made the decision, I luckily had an abundance of poems to choose from.\nMy book was actually my senior thesis for school. I did the hard part, the editing and the arrangement as my thesis, although I wrote some of the poems as far back as high school. While I wrote the first drafts of many of these poems throughout the years, I did a majority of the editing while working on it as my thesis.\nYou touch on a lot of social problems in your poetry. How did you choose to address these issues in your poems?\nI wouldn\u2019t say my writing is political, but some of it is definitely controversial. I just write about what comes to my mind, what I\u2019m dealing with, or what I\u2019m watching other people deal with. If that happens to be a controversial topic, I try not to let the idea of what\u2019s socially acceptable get in the way of the art that naturally comes out of me. I don\u2019t worry about embarrassing myself with my writing, but I do worry about embarrassing other people.\nWhat's your writing process? Where do you draw on inspiration?\nI write when it comes to me. This means that I sometimes go two weeks without writing, or I write 10 poems in one day. I don\u2019t ever want to pressure myself to write. When I have, I learned my lesson because that writing was horrible, shallow and clearly forced.\nI am inspired by my life and the lives of the people around me. I write because I have something to say to someone. I write because I am frustrated or confused about a certain situation. Sometimes I write to get my point across \u2013 to explores my thoughts and ideas, and sometimes it turns out to be a good poem. I write for myself, but luckily, I have found some other people who enjoy my writing at well.\nMy top three are Charles Bukowski, Emily Dickinson and Rupi Kaur.\nIs there a message or a feeling you hope that people will walk away with from reading this collection?\nI hope to bring my readers comfort. While many of my poems may make the comfortable feel unsettled, I hope to make the unsettled feel a bit more comfortable.\nWhy do you think poetry is an important literary form for people to engage with?\nPoetry reveals the truth in ways that other writing can\u2019t. Whether you\u2019re a writer, reader, or both, good poetry forces you to face your truth. If you don\u2019t like poetry, I believe it\u2019s because you can\u2019t face the introspective aspects of it.\nI hope to publish another book within the next year. I have been writing a lot recently, and am excited to publish some more mature, complex, introspective poetry. While writing what the general public might find controversial has always been pretty easy for me, writing about my true self and my family has always been far more uncomfortable. So, this next book may not be as controversial in some ways, but it\u2019s definitely pushing me out of my comfort zone.\nThe reading at Book Ends will be my first reading, and I am honored to do it at my favorite book store. Book Ends was actually the first store to sell my book. Growing up in Winchester, I shopped at Book Ends throughout my life, so it\u2019s truly a dream come true to have my book being sold there and an honor for them to host a book reading for me.",

These include disciplines such as engineering, nursing or medicine; broad groups, such as agricultural science; \u201cpure\u201d sciences, such as chemistry; and related sciences, such as mathematics or computer science. In addition to actual teaching, postsecondary science teachers are likely to have similar responsibilities, such as curriculum development, lesson planning and the supervision of graduate teaching assistants. Some also counsel or advise students on career choices, according to the BLS.\nResearch is another important component of a postsecondary teacher\u2019s job. The BLS notes that, in large universities, professors may spend more time performing research than actually teaching, while their classes are taught by graduate teaching assistants who professor supervises. Professors who conduct research might also need to write grants to obtain funding for the research. The National Science Teachers Association notes that all science teachers should assume an active role in research and that combining research with teaching practice makes both more effective.\nSalary Variance\nSalaries for postsecondary science teachers vary by discipline, according to the BLS. Nursing instructors in postsecondary roles had the lowest average annual salary at $68,640. Postsecondary mathematics professors earned $73,190, computer science teachers made $79,870 and chemistry professors took home $81,460. Professors in the agricultural sciences made $83,990, while salaries for environmental science and biological science were similar, at $86,080 and $87,060, respectively. Physics professors made $88,470, while engineering professors earned $100,100 and health specialties professors took home $100,370. The BLS estimates that demand for postsecondary teachers will increase 19 percent between 2012 and 2022, higher than the average of 11 percent for all occupations.\n2016 Salary Information for Postsecondary Teachers\nPostsecondary teachers earned a median annual salary of $78,050 in 2016, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. On the low end, postsecondary teachers earned a 25th percentile salary of $54,710, meaning 75 percent earned more than this amount. The 75th percentile salary is $114,710, meaning 25 percent earn more. In 2016, 1,314,500 people were employed in the U.S. as postsecondary teachers.\nWanted Analytics: Hiring Demand for Post-Secondary Teachers Soars\nNational Science Teachers Association: The Role of Research on Science Teaching and Learning\nU.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics: Occupational Outlook Handbook: Postsecondary Teachers\nCareer Trend: Postsecondary Teachers\nGreenwood, Beth. \"Academic College Science Jobs.\" Work - Chron.com, http://work.chron.com/academic-college-science-jobs-29678.html.

A \u201cvibrant\u201d 97-year-old with \u201ca lot of years left.\u201d\nAll were among the 11 people whose lives abruptly ended on Saturday when a gunman stormed the Tree of Life Synagogue in Pittsburgh\u2019s historic Squirrel Hill neighborhood.\nTrump says Pittsburgh synagogue should have had armed guards\nJerry Rabinowitz, 66, came from Edgewood Borough, Pennsylvania, and was a primary care physician in the area for many years, some of his patients told CNN.\nHis nephew, Avishai Ostrin, shared a photo on Facebook of his uncle, who he said always wore a bowtie that \u201cmade people smile\u201d and \u201cmade his patients more at ease.\u201d\n\u201cYou know how they say there are people who just lighten up a room? You know that cliche about people whose laugh is infectious? That was Uncle Jerry,\u201d he wrote. \u201cIt wasn\u2019t a cliche. It was just his personality.\u201d\nOstrin said if there was a message his uncle would want everyone to take from the tragedy, \u201cit would be a message of love, unity, and of the strength and resilience of the Jewish people.\u201d\nAccording to their obituaries posted by the Ralph Schugar Chapel, Cecil was a devoted Tree of Life congregant. David worked for Goodwill Industries, and was a hard worker who was recognized for his commitment a number of times.\nACHIEVA, a Pittsburgh nonprofit that provides support for people with disabilities, posted a statement about the Rosenthal brothers, calling them \u201ctwo well-respected members of our community\u2019 and \u201cextraordinary men.\u201d\n\u201cCecil\u2019s laugh was infectious. David was so kind and had such a gentle spirit. Together, they looked out for one another,\u201d said Chris Schopf, a vice president for residential support at ACHIEVA. \u201cThey were inseparable. Most of all, they were kind, good people with a strong faith and respect for everyone around.\u201d\nRose Mallinger, a 97-year-old from Squirrel Hill, was the \u201csweetest, lovely lady,\u201d said Robin Friedman, who told CNN that Mallinger was a secretary in her school\u2019s office growing up.\nMallinger regularly attended the synagogue with her daughter, Friedman said, and likely knew everyone there.

        "title": "Ways to Protect Personal Data on the Internet",
        "raw_content": "It is not surprising that the ways of protecting personal data on the Internet are becoming more and more popular among the active users of the World Wide Web. People try to protect their data as they understand the importance of keeping it safe. Phone numbers, emails, addresses \u2212 this info is nothing in comparison with the number of credit card, password, and \u00d0\u00a1VC code. However, knowing just the user's email, there is little difficulty in getting to someone\u2019s house and steal whatever is possible. So, are there any ways to keep everything private? Let\u2019s find out.\nPaper to Determine and Protect Personal Data\nFirst of all, you have to comprehend the importance of keeping personal data safe and understand what personal data implies. Is it your password to log in on Facebook? Or maybe on Instagram? Or maybe it is a message from an old friend? Determine what the personal data is and where you use it.\nThe best way to deal with this issue is to write a paper that would consist of all your personal data mentioned on the World Wide Web. This one should include all passwords, usernames, emails, addresses mentioned on various sites. Do not forget to write about credit cards (with CVC codes) by means of which you are making purchases through the Internet.\nSuch a paper should be placed somewhere around you as it will remind you about personal data that you have to keep safe.\nMoreover, you have to understand why the theft of personal data is dangerous. The leakage of personal data can give scammers the opportunity to take action on behalf of the victim. It means that they can gain the confidence of your friends / colleagues \u2212 or just use it for other illegal purposes. If such data as user's name, phone number and e-mail address falls into the hands of intruders, you are likely to be on the list of potential phishing scams \u2212 you will be getting personalized letters with malicious codes or links to virus-infected resources, for example, from the person of a friend or company.\nStudies show that users are not attentive to such emails \u2212 40% of the participants have opened such letters and clicked on unreliable links.\nBy the way, if you are not aware of where your personal data can be used, go here. This info will help you to perceive a situation more deeply and appropriately.\nBut do not despair that you could do nothing to hinder stealing your data. There are ways that will make you safe while searching the Internet. They are mentioned below.\nCreate a Special Email\nAccording to the French experts, the main problem of the users is a careless attitude to their personal data. Often, citizens thoughtlessly give their phone number or e-mail address to participate in various marketing research or obtain bonus cards, and it is difficult to guess how many resources keep this data. The experts recommend not to specify the mailbox used for important tasks in the questionnaire, and not to use a personal box for working moments.\nObviously, it makes sense to create a separate e-mail for such services in order to protect yourself from the actions of criminals.\nComplicated Passwords and Usernames\nIf the e-mail address is not shown anywhere, the attacker will not sort out all the combinations of emails in the world. But if there is a specific email, anyone can try to hack it. For example, try standard passwords. As practice shows, most people use a limited, fairly primitive combinations of numbers or words. Such mails are hacked at one stroke.\nIntruders can try to get access to your mailbox by answering security questions. Therefore, do not use the questions such as \u201cName the mother's maiden name\" or \"What is the name of your dog\" \u2212 the answers to them can be easily found in your social networks. It is better to choose something non-standard.\nIf you come up with a password of 15 characters in upper and lower case with numbers and special characters, the malefactors will not waste time on your account, hacking a hundred of other simple emails instead.\nJohn Swans (IT representative of one of the most popular banks) advises buying a bank card with a small number of funds, including a virtual one.\nThe possibility to get such one is provided by a mobile application. But not all banks have such a function. In this regard, you need to check if your bank provides this service.\nDo Not Tell the Truth\nQuite often, in order to get a bonus card or an access to a service, users are asked to fill out a questionnaire, but it is not necessary to leave real personal data. If you make a purchase in an online store and you are required to enter a date of birth, this data can be used in two options: to send a gift or give an additional discount, or otherwise, send your personal data to other services that are not so credible.",

        "title": "Free Sociology Essay Sample on topic Leadership in Organization",
        "raw_content": "Organizations that achieve success differ from the ones opposing them mainly because they are more dynamic and have effective leadership. From the point of view of the leader, it is perceived that the individual (manager), group (management team), or process should have individual way of managing the organization. By the words of the head, the management often includes such concepts as \"leader\" and \"leadership\". In some cases, these words are synonymous, but not always. Nature of leadership can be better understood when it is compared with its own control. Being a manager and being a leader in the organization is not the same thing. The manager, who influences the work, subordinates, and builds relationships with them primarily uses and relies on the official power granted to him. Leadership is similar to a specific type of relationship management. It is based more on the social act rather than on the interaction of the organization. This process is much more complex. It requires high level of interdependence between organization's members. Unlike it is with management, leadership creates followers in the organization, rather than subordinates. The relations \"boss - subordinate\" inherent in the traditional view of management are replaced by the relations \"leader - follower.\" For example, an influential informal leader can make the labor group restrict output or produce goods and services of poor quality. The position opens the road to leadership. The process of influencing people from a position of office is called formal leadership. However, in their endeavor to influence people, managers cannot rely only on position the leader occupies. This becomes clearly evident when one of the deputies, who has less formal power, has great success in managing stress and conflict situations and in solving critical problems in the company. Being a manager does not mean automatically being considered a leader in the organization. Leadership is largely characterized on informal basis. One can take the first post, however, he or she will not be a leader (Capezio & Morehouse, 1997).\nTherefore, we can say that the new management thinking has to guide people not on formal basis.\nStages in Team Building\nOne of the most important aspects of team productivity is a team building process. Thus, team productivity is dependent on team relationships and division of roles. The leader is the only one person, however, team building stages can create a strong mechanism of members of the team, which can think as one. Moreover, it can work as a whole. In order to succeed each team must go through certain stages discussed further in the paper (Capezio & Morehouse, 1997).\nFrom the point of view of business activity, it is characterized as a stage of mutual information sharing. This step is aimed to help members search for the optimal solution to the problem. Interpersonal interactions lead to formation of dyads, a stage of testing and dependence, suggesting orientation of the group members on each other, and finding a mutually acceptable way of behaving in a group. Team members come together with a sense of apprehension and coercion. Effectiveness of the team at this stage is low because its members do not know each other well and do not believe in each other.\nThis stage is characterized by creation of associations of interests. Its content is instrumental in informing members about the requirements of the content of the problem due to identification mismatch of personal motivation of individuals with the goals of group activity. The grouping is being formed by the group self-awareness at the level of individual subgroups. The features of existence of groups at this stage are characterized by workers with management team\u2019s subcultures such as \u201cclick\u201d.\nAt this stage, awareness and the desire to work are increasing. This stage is characterized by more open and constructive communication including the elements of group solidarity and cohesion. For the first time there is an established group with a distinct sense of \"we\". Coming to this point is an instrumental activity, and team members are well-prepared to implement it. The features of existence of groups in this phase are characteristic of working with management teams.\nDeveloped principles of group interaction become the dominant sphere of emotional activity and increase the value of relationships \u201cI \u2013 you\u201d, and personal relationships become particularly strong. Characteristic feature of the group at this stage is no intergroup activity. The process of separation of a cohesive, well-trained, united organizationally and psychologically group can turn into a group-autonomy, which is characterized by focusing on the goals and selfishness.\nIn terms of business, it can be considered as a stage of decision-making or constructive attempts to successful problem solving. Functional-role of correlation is associated with the formation of the role structure of the team, which is a kind of resonator, and is performed by a group task. The group is open for discovery and resolution of the conflict. At this stage, the group achieves the highest level of social and psychological maturity, high level of the preparedness, and organizational and psychological unity characteristic of the command subculture.\nUnderstanding the team is more important than leading it and it means that the team is organized. The formation and development of the team is likely to occur simultaneously.\nWhat is the Role of Leadership in Herman Miller?\nLeadership is an essential component of a successful business. It was found that there is a stable community of people. Despite the apparent simplicity of the concept, the presence of common starting points of different authors regarding leadership have led to a mixed understanding about the phenomenon. Leadership differs from management, which is assumed to be rigid and formalized system of domination - submission. Leader is a symbol of community and group behavioral patterns. He or she extends, as a rule, from the bottom, mostly spontaneously, and is accepted by the followers. People with power in the organization can be divided into three categories: official formal leaders, informal leaders, and formal leaders. Official formal leaders have a full set of tools of influence, therefore, have a greater chance of success. The analysis of the nature of leadership shows that it comes from specific needs of people and their communities that are designed to meet the leaders (Capezio & Morehouse, 1997).\nThe importance of leadership for management of the organization raises the question about the effect on the phenomenon. Leadership needs to be managed (if possible). It is aimed to develop constructive and eliminate destructive leaders. The important role for the leader is creating and managing organizational culture. Depending on the type of organizational culture, a leader has different functions. Effective leadership is directly related to the ability of leaders to lead organizational and interpersonal communication. Leadership role in the management of personnel is determined by its efforts to identify worthy candidates for membership in the working group. It must direct group energy to organizational goals. Leadership is reflected in the impact on the group. It encourages members to show their strong personal qualities and restrain manifestation of weak character traits. The performance of the leader is showed in his or her capacity to manage social conflicts. Managing social conflict requires consistent activity leader, seeking a constructive influence on the situation caused by the conflict, parties of the conflict, and the nature of the interaction between all stakeholders (Capezio & Morehouse, 1997).\nTherefore, if a better scheme of leadership is implemented in the organization, it has better chances to be successful.\nRoles in Effective Leadership Scheme\nAnother factor that proves that a team is more important than leading it is that the leader is only one person, and is usually a thinker. However, in order to achieve certain results there should be a number of members to perform different tasks. Thus, even a little task, which was not done by the member will lead to unsatisfactory results. All teams must be balanced in terms of the size and the degree of member participation. Generally, the larger the team is, the less people are able to participate in its work. Sometimes, there are people with valuable ideas, knowledge, and experience in the specialty, but they do not participate in the group. An experienced leader knows about the problem of \"silent majority\" and understands that in order to rely on combined resources of the team he/she must find a way to involve all its members into work. From the perspective of cohesion, it is believed that the best number of people in the group is twelve. The facts say that small groups suffer from absenteeism, and labor turnover is less than the group whose number of members exceeds 20 (Collins, 2001).\nExperience in project management suggests that in order to obtain high results, the team should consist of eight members, who would have different roles. These roles are discussed further (Collins, 2001).\nThis is a person who manages the team and coordinates its actions. A president may not be a creative and talented person, but he should be disciplined, focused, and balanced. This is someone who can listen well and speak correctly, judge people and things, and understand weaknesses of others. This means, that the leader is not the one who creates ideas for the work. He is simply the one who coordinates the work. If the team has developed to the stage where it functions as one mechanism, it can work without supervision.\nThese are initiative, mobile, and the most influential people in the group. At the absence of the leader, they usually assume his role. Their strength lies in their passionate desire to achieve a goal, but they may be too sensitive, irritable, and impatient.\n\u201cThinking tank\u201d\nIn contrast to the organizer, those people are focused on themselves, but intellectually they affect all other members. They are a source of ideas and suggestions. They have a great power of imagination and at the same time they are the smartest team members. However, they may be inattentive to detail, offended by criticism, often silent, and cautious by nature.\nControllers are smart, but they have more analytical than creative mind. They carefully analyze ideas and have the ability to see weaknesses in the arguments. They are less sociable than others. They hide information they have staying away from the team, but they are required to check the quality of team's work. They can be tactless and impartial.\nWorkaholics are practical organizers in the team. They turn ideas into actual tasks. Preparation of charts, diagrams, and plans is a strong side of their work. They are methodical and efficient at work, they inspire team members with their confidence and they never care about dreams for the future. They are leaders, but they are skillful and diligent workers.\nThese workers rally the whole team, support others, listen to them, encourage them, delve into everything, know everything, and bring a sense of harmony and consensus to the team. They are popular, but they do not want to compete. This is the type of people who do not notice when the lice are and what you are missing when they are not around.\nDeterminator.\nWithout determinator the team is nothing. This team member checks details, schedules, and time. Their persistent systematic work is important.\nTo conclude, so far the paper examined different roles that are performed by team members. After analyzing them, it is possible to come to a conclusion that the leader has an obligation of managing the work in the team, but the work will not be done if it is not the whole team working.\nLeader and Team\nMany surveys have been conducted about the effectiveness of work of one person who leads and the functioning of the whole team. Thus, studies show that middle management personnel comes into contact 300-400 times a day (sometimes several times with the same people) and their typical eight hours work day contains at least 200 different activities. These \"rules\" are reduced at higher managerial level. This means that by taking the leader position, the person is overloaded with technical work so much that he can leave team supervision (Hersey & Blanchard, 1988).\nAnother topic is brevity, delays, and interruptions. With this number of actions, a manager can give limited time to any single problem. Even at the highest management level ten minutes is unusual, but generally is a rarity. Typically, the day of a manager consists of phone calls, meetings, work desk, and unscheduled meetings. They replace each other very quickly. Unplanned work, phone calls, and surprise visits are an integral part of daily work of the supervisor. Therefore, it means that the leader is not as important in the results of work as the team. Finally, the job of the leader includes five different types of activities: paper work, parsing mail, reading, reporting, etc. Several studies have shown that it takes 22-35% of the total time. The percentage increases with moving upwards the career ladder (Hersey & Blanchard, 1988).\nWhat is Company`s Human Resource Concept?\nStaff member competencies are major aspects of this strategy. Therefore, recently HM Incorporation has created a perfect model on identification and development of staff member competence. This model has been widely used in every unit of Herman Miller Incorporation: performance, selection, recruitment, and development (Herman Miller Inc., 2011). Thus, Herman Miller Incorporation widely uses both: classical and neo-classical approaches to create its leadership concept inside the company. One of the major neo-classical approaches is that the worker does not need to be a professional from the beginning. The company provides workers with training courses, which can help them develop their abilities and increase experience. Usually, they are focused on developing personal and professional skills.\nThese trainings are aimed to provide effective results and search for challenging solutions, increase management's flexibility, provide assistance in leadership, develop new professional skills, and increase employees adaption and discharge to new technologies and techniques. The main goal of these programs is to train staff to think and express their thoughts independently, to deal with challenging problems, to organize and develop a good team work. These programs offer knowledge and training experience that strengthen the will to study. Their unique feature is that they offer the possibility to staff members who are already working in the company and have particular skills, knowledge, and experience to not only develop these skills, but to evaluate own work from a new point of view (Zaun 2007).\nTo conclude, human resource management model in Herman Miller Incorporation in very effective as every unit in the company improves its professional skills and develops competence.\nWhat is Classical and Neo-classical Concept in Herman Miller?\nHerman Miller Incorporation uses more classical than neo-classical approach in its leadership practice. A great example of neo-classical approach is that Herman Miller Company has its own internal concept for creating HR basis. First of all, the company has understood that it is not enough for the worker to be simply well qualified. Herman Miller Incorporation follows the classical approach as its main strategy in effective leadership relies on understanding that the main aim should be constant development of workers' ability. Therefore, HM has created their own scheme in managing human resource and leadership in the company. The example of implementing the neo-classical theory in managing workers and their strategy of effective leadership is that the company has established special procedures to observe workers' attitude to particular things. For example, the company has made unique blanks for interview in order to find out workers' general competences in a particular field. Thus, the basic principle in the company is to improve staff members\u2019 personality and behavior based on the concepts of morality. Herman Miller highlights the need for estimating responsibilities of each worker in order to create an effective team (McCowan 1999). As a result, these steps form effective team, which can work for achieving the highest level of productivity. The example of increased productivity can be implementation of EVA system. Due to this training system, productivity of average worker has increased by 45%. In addition, majority claimed that due to EVA they became not only more productive, but started to get more satisfaction from their work (Wenger, McDermott, & Sydney, 2002).\nMore classical ways in leading business is Herman Miller focused on developing creative collaboration with their suppliers. The emphasis has been made on the convenience and profitability of collaboration. Thus, it should be explained that Herman Miller has binary collaboration: with companies and countries in their process of development and already developed ones (Birchard, 2011).\nTo conclude, Herman Miller Incorporation is the company that uses all possible approaches to ensure perfect management and effective productivity.\nLeadership is an essential component of effective functioning of the company. Leadership is different from management, which is assumed to be rigid and formalized system of domination - submission. Leader is a symbol of community and group behavior pattern. It extends, as a rule, from the bottom, mostly spontaneously and has his own followers. People with power in the organization can be divided into three categories: formal leaders, informal leaders, and formal leaders. Formal leader has a full set of tools of influence, therefore, has a greater chance for success. The analysis of the nature of leadership shows that it comes from specific needs of people and their communities, which are designed to meet those of leaders. More details about the nature of leadership are revealed by its various theories: classical, neoclassical, and human resource theory.\nThese theories explain the phenomenon of leadership traits and outstanding qualities of the person such as the mind, the will, commitment, organizational skills, competencies, etc. According to the concept of charismatic leadership, these leaders have inspired followers who try to imitate their behavior. Classical theory introduces the concept of goals and tasks related to a specific situation, which form the style of leader behavior. Neo-classical theory recognizes the role of constituents in the phenomenon of followers\u2019 decisive leadership. In addition, it describes internal motivations of the person to take decision-making positions of influence on the formation of the character and direction of the leader.\nThe importance of leadership for the management of the organization raises the question of the effect on the phenomenon. The important role of the leader is creating and managing organizational culture. Depending on the type of organizational culture, leader has different functions. Effective leadership is directly related to the ability of leaders to lead organizational and interpersonal communication, influencing its character.\nThe company under evaluation was Herman Miller Incorporation. It was found that the company has a very effective concept of leadership and human resource management. According to company's internal policy, leadership role in the management of personnel is determined by its efforts to identify worthy candidates for membership in the working group, it must direct the group energy at organizational goals. Leadership also is reflected in the impact on the group. Leaders encourage team members to show their strong personal qualities and restrain the manifestation of weak character traits. The performance of the leader depends on his/her ability to manage social conflicts. Therefore, Herman Miller widely uses a theory of human resource management as its workers are in the process of constant development. The company also uses neo-classical approach, having implemented its EVA development system, focusing on moral principles, and introducing the unique workers' interview. However, the classical approach is still used in the external policy of the company.",

        "raw_content": "Cowboys\u2019 Elliott gets another reprieve, will play vs 49ers\nNEW YORK (AP) \u2014 Dallas Cowboys star Ezekiel Elliott was granted another legal reprieve Tuesday night in the running back\u2019s fight to avoid a six-game suspension over domestic violence allegations.\nA federal judge granted a temporary restraining order blocking the league\u2019s suspension, clearing Elliott to play Sunday at San Francisco.\nU.S. District Judge Paul Crotty\u2019s ruling comes five days after a federal appeals court overturned a Texas court\u2019s injunction that had kept Elliott on the field.\nCrotty granted the request for a temporary restraining order pending a hearing before the presiding judge, Katherine Polk Failla, who is on vacation. He ordered the league to appear before Failla by Oct. 30 to argue why the suspension should not be blocked until courts in New York and Texas can rule on challenges the players\u2019 union brought against the suspension.\nElliott, last year\u2019s NFL rushing leader as a rookie, was barred from the team\u2019s facility Tuesday as players returned from their off week. The NFL placed him on the suspended list Friday, a day after the ruling from the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in New Orleans.\nThe league didn\u2019t immediately respond to a request for comment.\nElliott was suspended in August by Commissioner Roger Goodell after the league concluded a yearlong investigation that he had several physical confrontations in the summer of 2016 with Tiffany Thompson, his girlfriend at the time.\nProsecutors in Columbus, Ohio, decided not to pursue the case in the city where Elliott starred for Ohio State, citing conflicting evidence, but the NFL did its own investigation.\nDuring a hearing earlier Tuesday, Crotty said he was inclined to defer to Failla because she was more familiar with the case.\nAttorney Daniel Nash, arguing for the NFL, accused Elliott\u2019s legal team of seeking relief from courts in Texas to evade courts in New York and the effect of the April 2016 ruling that reinstated a four-game suspension of New England quarterback Tom Brady in the \u201cDeflategate\u201d scandal.\nAttorney Jeffrey Kessler, representing the players\u2019 union, asked Crotty to prevent enforcement of the suspension for two weeks so that Failla can return from a vacation and rule.\nNash warned Crotty that allowing the union to continue to delay the suspension would invite \u201cevery player who\u2019s suspended\u201d to go to court for relief.\n\u201cThey know under the Brady decision they have no chance of success. None,\u201d Nash said.\nKessler said the harm to a player\u2019s short career was serious when a suspension is served.\n\u201cHe can never get that back,\u201d Kessler said, arguing that the irreparable harm \u2014 among issues of law considered before a temporary restraining order is granted \u2014 faced by a player is much greater than harm claimed by the league when a suspension is delayed.",

SkateDaze we will be closing its doors end of day on Sunday, March 31st, 2019. We have been truly blessed by the support, and patronage of the Omaha community, for which we are forever grateful. We will cherish the relationships and friendships that we have developed over the past seven decades.\nThis was not an easy decision for us and has been undeniably the most difficult decision we\u2019ve had to make as a business. SkateDaze is a healthy, successful business that has given us years of enjoyment. SkateDaze has been a place full of smiles, love, and family memories. We\u2019ve worked hard to create a safe space for all to learn and grow for generations. Many of you hold us near and dear to your hearts and have treated us as a member of your own family. For which we are without words to express the honor felt by allowing us to be a part of your family, and community. The years have flown by so quickly, and they have gifted us with endless memories and friendships, but It is time for us to retire and pursue our other passions.\nAs they say, \u201cwe were made an offer we couldn\u2019t refuse,\u201d for our building and land; it is our goal to not leave Omaha without a roller-skating facility. We have the best equipment and name in the industry, that is ready and waiting for the next great roller-skating entrepreneur. We will work hard to accomplish that goal until roller-skating returns to Omaha.\n-The Cernik Family\u201d",

The project's overall objectives were to increase public awareness and understanding about African American LGBTQ (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Queer) experiences; to explore the marginalization of racial issues in the LGBTQ movement and in gay and lesbian studies; and to create climates that acknowledge, value, and respect difference, especially within HBCUs, where profound silences continue to exist around gender and sexuality. Project activities were conducted in two stages, each substantially funded by the Arcus Foundation.\nPhase I of the project, titled Breaking the Silence: The Audre Lorde Black Lesbian Feminist Project, began in 2006 and focused on outreach at Spelman and within the Atlanta University Center (AUC), a consortium of local HBCUs. As part of this phase, Spelman instituted the Zami Salon, a series of student-driven activities designed to raise awareness, combat homophobia and heterosexism, and promote more inclusive environments. LBGTQ scholars and activists visited Spelman to share their experiences both inside and outside of black communities. Award-winning writer Thomas Glave discussed the necessity of interrogating heteronormativity in African Diaspora cultural contexts. Cara Page, national director of the Committee on Women, Population, and the Environment, presented a workshop on LGBTQ issues and genetic technologies. Layli Phillips, professor of women's studies at Georgia State University and a Spelman alumna, offered an elective course on Black Queer Studies (probably the first semester-long queer theory course at an HBCU) and also established an LGBTQ scholarship. Under the auspices of the Zami Salon, the Women's Center sponsored Spelman's first faculty Coming Out Day.\nThe project's first phase also supported the digital archiving and public unveiling of Audre Lorde's papers, now part of the Spelman Archives. During this phase, Rudolph P. Byrd, Johnnetta Betsch Cole, and I completed I Am Your Sister: The Collected and Unpublished Writings of Audre Lorde (2009). Drawing from our research, the center held a major symposium on Audre Lorde's life and work in fall 2008. At the symposium, academics, activists, and students explored a range of issues relative to black gay and lesbian experiences. Without a doubt, Phase I established Spelman's Women's Center as a major site for the exploration of black queer issues in the academy.\nThe Audre Lorde Project Phase II: Facilitating HBCU Campus Climates of Pluralism, Inclusivity, and Progressive Change, conducted from 2008 to 2011, expanded outreach to selected HBCUs outside of the AUC. This phase's broad range of activities culminated in the historic Audre Lorde HBCU Summit on April 29, 2011, when participants from eleven partnering HBCUs and other colleges and universities gathered at Spelman to engage in dialogue about LGBTQ issues on our campuses. Leading experts presented research findings and offered recommendations about how HBCUs might establish more open and inclusive environments for their LGBTQ constituents. Two hundred participants attended the event, including representatives from entities like the United Negro College Fund, the Human Rights Campaign, and the National Black Justice Institute. Participants repeatedly expressed a desire to make sexual diversity a top priority at their institutions. The summit resulted in a three hundred page Summit Resource Book (available on request).\nReflecting on the project, Spelman President Beverly Daniel Tatum asserted, \"Our mission calls us to develop the intellectual, ethical and leadership potential of our students, and we cannot effectively do that unless we ourselves model ethical leadership. For me, that means taking responsibility for creating an inclusive community where everyone feels welcome. Lives are depending on it\" (2011). In the aftermath of the Audre Lorde Project, Spelman College has convened an LGBTQ working committee to explore how we might continue to build Spelman's community around issues of difference. It is our hope that other HBCUs will heed the call as well.\nByrd, Rudolph P., Johnnetta Betsch Cole, and Beverly Guy-Sheftall. 2009.

He would grab hold of each match, dancing his way around the ring until just the right moment and then BAM, his fist, as big as a loaf of bread and as weighty as Thor\u2019s hammer, would shoot forth so as to inflict the maximum amount of damage upon his adversary.\nDespite his brutal blows, Ali was not fueled by anger. Fighting was his job, and he was damn well good at it. But outside the ring, he was known for his big personality \u2013 a man who could be caring and controversial in equal measure. Never one to hold back, Ali would often play to the camera, as seen in his famous Esquire cover and photo shoot with The Beatles. He was also a pretty sharp dresser, especially for a guy of his size. Ali wasn\u2019t so much a gentle giant, as he was a giant gentleman, which is why his battle with Parkinson\u2019s disease, and his subsequent deteriorating state later in life, has been so painful to watch. And so it\u2019s best to remember Ali as he was in his glorious heyday \u2013 as the true people\u2019s champ.\nComments on \u201cA True People\u2019s Champ.\u201d\nRufus Firefly IIIon February 24, 2015 @ 12:33 PM:\nHe should be on the twenty dollar bill.\nDavid Spaldingon February 24, 2015 @ 1:22 PM:\nI must be synchronicity that I recently wanted Michael Mann\u2019s ALI and the HBO special by Stephen Frears, MUHAMMAD ALI\u2019S GREATEST FIGHT. Both fantastic films, and together a great pairing to tell the forgotten story of how important a figure he was in the 1960s. Kids growing thinking of him as just a boxer, \u201cThe Greatest,\u201d know so little about his true heroism and civic importance to American history.\nThanks for highlighting him today. Ali deserves the adulation he\u2019s gotten over the years.\nBrett Vaughanon February 24, 2015 @ 8:16 PM:\nIf only there were more men made like this anymore. It seems any of the leaders of today worldwide are either obviously corrupt or have priorities that don\u2019t match that of the people they\u2019re supposed to be serving. Ali was one of the greats, and will always be remembered as such. Hopefully other leaders will take a glimmer of his wisdom and apply it to their own daily lives, it would make the world a far better place.\nJFPisaon March 11, 2015 @ 8:09 AM:\nMen made like this anymore?

        "raw_content": "In an age of perpetual change, large-scale marketing projects that require several months or even years to implement are no longer the solution. New approaches inspired by agile development methodologies offer a better answer.\nIt is impossible for a CMO, regardless of his skills, to draw up a blueprint of his operational relationship marketing requirements for the next three years. Why? Because you have no idea yet whether you are\nbuilding a wooden chalet or a castle. And even if you needed a castle you would not be able to describe your exact requirements as you have never lived in a castle before. We strongly believe that starting small, building as you go and showing results within the first weeks is the right way to set-up your 1-to-1 customercentric processes.\nBe smart about your data\nAre you worried about having to combine all your company databases? This is a frequently made mistake that is fuelled by an IT-perspective on data: the storage of all the customer data in one centralised place. This is actually the worst thing you can do when you want to see quick results from your 1-to-1 marketing strategy. Because at this point you have no idea which data are crucial for understanding your customers and drive sales. Striving for completeness will result in you getting bogged down by the complexity of it all and your first campaign will only leave the building more than a year later.\nCustomers have become used to receiving mass communication or segmented communication based on a very small set of data. Some technology vendors try to convince CMOs that they need to instantaneously shift from this situation to a \u201cMatrix-style\u201d world in which every bit of data in the world is combined in the computer\u2019s memory. We believe that there is an in-between approach to data, which we call \u201csmart data\u201d. The \u201csmart data\u201d approach is based on the assumption that 20% of the data you own about your customers explains 80% of your customer\u2019s behaviour and contains 80% of the business leverage effect. The problem of course lies in determining the 20% that matter. Our experience is that, when studying specific industries, the principal vectors of customer behaviour are of the same nature. In some cases, the conclusions may sound counter-intuitive. For instance, we have observed that the weather predictions in the area where the customer lives are one of the most important\nfactors that influence his decision to buy grocery goods. This is what we call the \u201cBBQ effect\u201d: the content\nof shopping baskets on Thursdays is often decided in function of the weather that has been announced for\nthe weekend. But, more than \u201crecipes\u201d that would be applicable to every domain, marketers need a methodology to select which data are important and which data are irrelevant for their specific business needs and their\nWorking with pilots\nThe idea behind the agile development methodology is to work with small cycles called \u201csprints\u201d (usually fifteen days) so that the project\u2019s evolution can be showcased to the users before development continues. ACTITO has adapted this approach to marketing automation by working with pilots. A pilot takes approximately twelve weeks (longer than a typical \u201csprint\u201d but much shorter than a traditional marketing project). In this period, various hypotheses about data, which segments, which channels to use and KPIs are developed and applied to a portion of your target base. If these hypotheses prove fruitful, they are applied to the entire customer base and structured into automated processes to achieve a systematic return. Any further enhancements to your automation also\nfollow the 12-week pilot rule. This obviously reduces the risk that is inherent to ambitious marketing projects.\nThe added bonus of this approach? It is easier to defend your 1-to-1 vision to your CFO and CEO knowing that you will not spend a whole year\u2019s worth of marketing budget on something that does not work. Assessing best practices and demonstrating ROI always seals the deal when requesting additional investments. As your company\u2019s experience with 1-to-1 grows, you will identify the best practices that help you generate proven ROI at key moments of contact. This is agility at work: build structural processes brick by brick, like a wall. In the end the CMO can be certain that the size of the wall will be proportional to the generated business ROI.",

We have given separate pages on this website to our more recent books, Eavesdropping on Jane Austen\u2019s England, Jack Tar, The Handbook of British Archaeology, The War for All the Oceans, Trafalgar, Empires of the Plain, The Keys of Egypt and The Little Book of Egyptian Hieroglyphs. The following section gives information on all our other books, many of which are still in print, while others can be obtained secondhand or through your local library service.\nThis reference book provides comprehensive access to over 1,000 years of Roman rule, dealing with the archaeology and ancient history of Rome and its empire from the 8th century BC to the 5th century AD. [Click on the title for more information]\nThis reference book provides comprehensive access to over three millennia of ancient Greek history and archaeology. [Click on the title for more information]\nOver 1,400 entries and 120 of our own line drawings and photographs relating to all aspects of the ancient Roman religion. [Click on the title for more information]\nIntroduction to the Romans\nPublished as a colour illustrated hardback in 1991 by The Apple Press, this book has also appeared under other imprints, including The Burlington Press and more recently Grange Books. As its title suggests, it is an ideal starting point for those wanting to get to know the Roman world, and many of the colour photographs were taken by ourselves. Out of all our books, it is the one most often borrowed in public libraries! It is also available in Spanish as El Imperio Romano: Historia, cultura y arte, in French as Les romains: culture et mythes and in German as Die R\u00f6mer: Kultur und Mythen.\nA Field Guide to Somerset Archaeology\nThis guidebook with its rather stuffy title (not ours!) was published in 1992 by The Dovecote Press. It is an illustrated guide to the prehistoric, Roman and medieval sites of the county of Somerset in south-west England, with directions, car parking, factual descriptions, opening times, and information on access for disabled visitors. We visited each site personally, which was an excellent way to get to know the county. Tom Mayberry in the Proceedings of the Somerset Archaeology and Natural History Society said: \u2018Anyone familiar with the work of Lesley and Roy Adkins will not be surprised by the high quality of both text and illustrations \u2026 The book is concise, reliable and accessible, and is illustrated with some excellent figures and photographs. It is likely to become a source of immediate reference to those who already know something of the county\u2019s archaeology, and a source of inspiration to those wanting to discover more\u2019.\nTalking Archaeology: A Handbook for Lecturers and Organisers\nThis is a small publication issued by the Council for British Archaeology in 1990. We wrote it after attending many badly organised conferences and lectures where the speaker was ill-prepared! The highlight of the publication must surely be the ten cartoons by Bill Tidy. \u2018Whilst this new CBA practical handbook aimed at a broad readership will not, I am sure, bring to an end every disastrous occasion, it should help raise standards if organizers and speakers alike read it \u2026 The final comment should be kept for Bill Tidy whose excellent cartoons have brought a sense of humour to this helpful handbook, and which, I hope, will encourage people to read it\u2019 (Richard J Brewer, Post-Medieval Archaeology). This same review in Post-Medieval Archaeology was also illustrated by a cartoon drawn by Tom Daly of the National Museum of Wales.\nThis was published as a colour illustrated hardback in 1990 by The Apple Press, but has also appeared under other imprints, including Grange Books. Each chapter deals with the different reasons why prehistoric and historic sites were abandoned \u2013 such as through warfare or natural disaster.\nAn Introduction to Archaeology\nOriginally published as a colour illustrated hardback in 1989 by The Apple Press, this has also appeared under other imprints such as The Burlington Press and more recently Grange Books. We were initially horrified that the publishers gave us just four weeks to write the book, but we managed to complete it in the allotted time, basing it on a series of adult education classes we had fortuitously just given. The book has become very popular as a starting point for students in archaeology, and it is borrowed widely in public libraries. Many of the colour photographs were taken by ourselves.\nThis book was published in hardback in 1989 by Cambridge University Press in the Cambridge Manuals in Archaeology series. We decided to write the book because of the low standard of illustrations published in many archaeological journals and books, and each chapter deals with a different aspect such as recording buildings, drawing on site, drawing artefacts, and drawing for publication. Always fiendishly expensive, particularly considering that archaeological illustrators are generally poorly paid, the book was never made available in paperback and was out-of-print for a while, with secondhand copies virtually impossible to obtain. CUP has now (twenty years on) reissued the book as a paperback. It has not been updated, but still contains much that will be of value to illustrators.\n\u2018it covers considerable ground \u2026 an extremely useful addition to the limited range of technical handbooks available to archaeologists\u2019 (P.L. Drewett, Antiquaries Journal)\nUnder the Sludge. Beddington Roman Villa\nThis was a 92-page illustrated book published in 1986 by the Beddington, Carshalton and Wallington Archaeological Society. The Beddington sewage works near Croydon was once operated by having sewage sludge spread over its many acres of farmland \u2013 hence the title of the book. Much of the land was redundant and its destruction threatened by gravel extraction in the early 1980s, and so we began a process of looking for the Roman bath-house which was known to exist on the site. With the help of many volunteer workers, a Roman villa complex was also found, as well as a prehistoric settlement.

Numerous Neolithic axes, several thousand years old, have been found in the River Thames, quite often discovered through dredging. Some were deliberately deposited for ritual reasons, others were accidentally lost, and the purpose of this publication was to discuss these finds and give a catalogue, as well as scale drawings of all the axes.

        "raw_content": "Robert Herjavec Predicts Ransomware Attacks On Hospitals Up 5X By 2021\nNo longer are cyber thieves content to steal individuals\u2019 financial information off unencrypted hard drives or through spam or phishing schemes. Increasingly, these criminals are going after bigger targets \u2013 they are targeting corporations with ever more complex threats like SQL injections, advanced persistent threats and Zero-Day exploits. These criminals are ruthless and have begun targeting healthcare providers.\nAccording to Robert Herjavec, ransomware attacks on hospitals may increase fivefold over the next five years. Why, you may ask, all this interest in hospitals and the healthcare industry?\nFinancial gain. Medical records are far more valuable than credit card data. Medical records can sell for up to $50 each on the Dark Web compared to the meager $1 that Social Security and credit card data brings.\nEasier to hack. Banks and other financial institutions are becoming more difficult to crack for cyber thieves. These institutions have invested heavily in cybersecurity to protect their data, while healthcare\u2019s investment in sophisticated cybersecurity is lagging.\nMedical identity theft is more difficult to detect. Consumers can purchase plans to help protect them again identity fraud and track their financial statements to detect fraud. But both patients and healthcare providers are unlikely to recognize a security breach immediately.\nLarge hospitals and other large healthcare organizations are not the only targets. Smaller private medical practices are also being targeted. According to Healthcare Informatics, 45 percent of all ransomware attacks in 2017 were in the healthcare field.\nRegardless of the size of the organization, ransomware attacks can cause significant financial loss. Some organizations chose to pay the ransom because of the urgent need to resume patient care. However, there are more considerable economic consequences too.\nDisruption of services. During the ransomware attack, the healthcare provider cannot provide a wide array of medical services causing loss of income by interruption of the business\u2019s operations.\nLoss of reputation. Patients often choose a medical practice, hospital or same-day surgery center based on the facility\u2019s reputation. Loss of trust in a facility\u2019s ability to safeguard patients\u2019 medical records could potentially lead to business failure.\nThe CIO in any healthcare organization must communicate with the facility\u2019s board of directors and management that cybersecurity is not an issue that can be tabled until next year. Clearly, everyone should develop a deep understanding of the serious consequences if their facility is attacked by ransomware. When the magnitude of potential damage is fully appreciated, cybersecurity will cease to be an expense. Cybersecurity will become an investment to protect the business from catastrophic cyber-attacks.\nThe healthcare industry is unique \u2013 bound by HIPAA for patient privacy and security \u2013 unlike credit cards which can be canceled and reissued \u2013 medical records uniquely belong to the patient and could be at risk for the life of the patient.\nWhy is the healthcare industry at increased risk for ransomware attacks?\nCybersecurity companies like Herjavec Group and Cybersecurity Ventures issued a report in 2016 that ransomware damages would be in the range of $1 billion for the year. Let\u2019s look at some of the reasons the healthcare field is now the #1 target for ransomware.\nIoT growing in healthcare. The Internet of Things is exploding. Global healthcare entities will spend upward of $270 billion on IoT devices by 2023. Imaging devices connected to the internet are a tantalizing target. Add in equipment maintenance software that requires periodic updates, and we can begin to see the opportunities for cybersecurity breaches. The critical needs of patient care demand that imaging devices are available 24/7 with no scheduled downtime \u2013 leaving updates to patch weaknesses not always performed on a timely basis.\nHealthcare executives seem less aware of the risks than in other industries. Unfortunately, many healthcare executives seem less aware of the potential dangers from ransomware than management in different vertical industries. Hospitals, ambulatory clinics, imaging facilities and private practices are playing catchup to secure their networks.\nInsider threats. Insider threats generally come in two forms. An obvious insider threat is the disgruntled employee or former employee. Less obvious threats may come from third-party contractors or outside consultants. And lastly, lack of employee training may cause careless or inadvertent mistakes.\nWhat types of problems does ransomware cause?\nUnderstanding the potentially catastrophic dangers that ransomware is the first step in realizing how important cybersecurity is the healthcare field.\nPatient\u2019s health and well-being. IoT connected devices include Wi-Fi heart pumps and smart beds in the surgical suite. If these devices become compromised through security, a fatality could result. Altering a patient\u2019s records by changing their blood type could result in an adverse reaction after a blood transfusion.\nHollywood Presbyterian Medical Center. The Locky strain of ransomware infected this Los Angeles hospital in 2016. The hospital paid over $16,000 in ransom. More damaging was the news that the breach put the hospital on lock-down because employees couldn\u2019t access their computers. Their radiology and oncology departments couldn\u2019t use their equipment.\nHancock Health, Greenfield, Indiana. Officials paid over $55,000 to get decryption keys to regaining access to over 1,400 files. Although the hospital had backups, officials did not want to risk days or possibly weeks before they regained access to their data.\n16 Hospitals Shut Down in the United Kingdom. In 2017, ransomware known as WannaCry creating chaos for hospital administrators, employees and patients. The ransomware even affected their telephone systems forcing employees to use their personal mobile phones. Citizens were advised to use these facilities for emergencies only.\nMedStar Network, D.C. and Maryland. The largest healthcare provider in the area, with 10 hospitals and 200 outpatient locations, was hit by a ransomware attack in the spring of 2016. Patient records were locked, and some patients had to be turned away.\n2018 and no end in sight. Almost 50 major breaches have been reported by Healthcare IT News.\nThe Challenges Hospitals Face\nFirst of all, the FBI will continue to monitor ransomware attacks through their Cyber Division. The FBI discourages hospitals and other organizations from paying ransoms \u2013 recommending a proactive approach \u2013 data backup and a business recovery plan instead.\nChallenges include outdated systems and too few experienced cybersecurity personnel. The data is high value on the open market so ransomware intrusions will continue to occur.\nHospitals, rightly so, focus on patient care. But more attention and budget must be directed toward cybersecurity over the next five years. Lagging wages for IT personnel in the hospital industry are a contributing factor.\nMany hospitals work on outdated platforms, and they utilize more off-the-shelf software too. Sadly, many hospitals lack the backups they need to protect themselves. Stricter adherence to back up recommendations could stem healthcare facilities from being forced to pay ransoms.\nProtect your organization against ransomware attacks by acknowledging the risk, putting a plan in place and then allocating the budget for cybersecurity.",

The program makes use of remote sensing technology, particularly Light Detection and Ranging or LiDAR, to produce highly detailed maps which will be turned over to concerned local government units (LGUs). The program is being funded by the Department of Science and Technology (DOST) and monitored by the Philippine Council for Industry, Energy and Emerging Technology Research and Development (PCIEERD).\nThe program aims to map the natural resources of the country. It is participated by fifteen (15) high education institutions (HEIs) and state universities and colleges (SUCs) all throughout the country. The program aims to produce maps with the following applications: production of high value crops, irrigation assessment, aquaculture production, forest protection and discovery of renewable energy sources.\nPhil-LiDAR 2 is composed of two subprograms which aim to collect, collate and process LiDAR and other remotely sensed data from different areas of the country. The two programs are: (a) Program 1 \u2013 Automation of Feature Extraction from LIDAR data for the Nationwide Detailed Resources Assessment and (b) Program 2 \u2013 LIDAR Data Processing, Modeling and Validation for Nationwide Resources Assessment.\nAmong the fifteen educational institutions involved, the Ateneo de Naga University (ADNU) has been tasked to implement the second subprogram throughout the six provinces of the Bicol Region, namely: Camarines Sur, Camarines Norte, Albay, Sorsogon, Catanduanes and Masbate.\nThe second program is further subdivided into five components: (a) Philippine Agricultural Resources Mapping (PARMap), (b) Coastal Resources Mapping (CoastMap), (c) Forest Resources Extraction using LiDAR Surveys (FRExLS), (d) Development of the Philippine Hydrologic Datasets (PHD) and (e) Renewable Energy Resource Mapping (REMap). The ADNU has committed to all five components of the program and will be implementing each all throughout the Bicol Region.\nThe Ateneo de Naga University is mentored and guided by the Training Center for Applied Geodesy and Photogrammetry office of the University of the Philippines \u2013 Diliman (UPD-TCAGP). The UPD-TCAGP has developed different methodologies which have been passed on to the different institutions for their own implementation of the program. The methodology includes data collection throughout the Philippines. These data is then used for data processing in which LiDAR data and other remotely sensed data are analyzed and resource maps are produced. The program makes use of different image analysis algorithms to adequately produce high quality maps. This involves the use of image analysis and GIS software to produce accurate maps. These maps, in turn, will be given to local government units surrounding the region for planning and risk management purposes.",

        "raw_content": "Intervenci\u00f3n en el EBF SSM Forum\nBanking Union: from epic task to day-to-day hard work\nIn an era of greater transparency and scrutiny by market players, communication is key for us all, banks and supervisory authorities.\nThe success of Banking Union, a project supported by the European Banking Federation from inception, is now a reality. What has been achieved on the side of the authorities and the banks is unparallel: constructing from scratch a new supervisory framework, even a new supervisory paradigm, in just a few years is something we can be proud of. But the room for complacency is very limited in a challenging environment. And I am not just thinking about the financial environment but also, even especially, about geo political risks.\nThe first challenge we face is that the creation of a common supervisory framework is more difficult than initially foreseen. In other words, the degree of heterogeneity of national supervisory frameworks is greater than what we thought. This of course points to the importance of the creation of the SSM, even if it adds complexity to the task ahead: the voluntary cooperation schemes put in place, first, in CEBS and, then at the EBA were producing convergence at a very slow pace.\nThe new reality of Basel III is also being tested. For instance, we discussed in the past whether Cocos would be a useful instrument for managing a crisis situation in a bank, but we never expected back then the contamination towards bank shares we saw at the beginning of the year. In these circumstances, a clear communication strategy is key to avoid, or limit, market turbulence. I will come back to this later on.\nBut the new reality in financial markets is not solely, or even mainly, driven by regulation. The low interest rate environment is being more powerful and pervasive that we all thought. For an industry whose core business is maturity transformation, the flattening of the yield curve and the negative interest rates are not good news from the profitability perspective. The sooner we see a normalisation of interest rates, the better.\nTurning to the new supervisory environment, we can see a tension between the need of a greater homogeneity of approaches and the need to discriminate between good and not so good supervised entities. In the end, it is the old debate between rules and discretion. Now the direction seems to be, in my view, towards rules as a way to ensure a level playing among SSM banks. In the starting years of Banking Union this may well be a reasonable approach given the heterogeneity of the starting point in supervisory practices, but later on we may want to revisit the balance between rules and discretion. And we will have to extend the Level Playing Field effort beyond the 120 directly supervised banks: I am, of course, referring to indirect supervision, to DG III issues.\nFinally, a word on communication challenges. In an era of greater transparency and scrutiny by market players, communication is key for us all, banks and supervisory authorities. Let me mention a couple of examples. First, the issue of MDA, where the combination of new Basel III rules, an EBA paper and a very sensitive market environment created an unexpected shock. Second, the messages around the finalisation of Basel III in the Basel Committee (the so-called Basel IV), where the high level message of not substantially increasing capital requirements does not fit well with the detailed consultative papers being released.\nI am sure some of the issues pointed above will become clearer during the next twelve months. And I am sure other topics, such as the coordination between the SRB and the SSM, consistency between MREL and TLAC, and progress towards a Single Deposit Insurance Scheme will all be high on the agenda for next year.\nBut let me now go to the important issues, by giving the floor to Madame Nouy, Chairperson of the SSM.",

        "raw_content": "TRIBUTE: Celebrating 40 Years of Parliament\u2019s \u2018Funkentelechy vs. the Placebo Syndrome\u2019\nHappy 40th Anniversary to Parliament\u2019s Funkentelechy vs. the Placebo Syndrome, originally released November 28, 1977.\nAs a hip-hop head, I know a lot about the struggles that go on within the genre for control of its \u201csoul.\u201d The struggle between ensuring the music stays \u201cpure\u201d and \u201creal\u201d and crafting music that appeals to as broad of an audience as possible\u2014including the commercial implications that come with it\u2014is a constant dynamic. Hip-Hop gets mocked a lot when this tussle manifests itself on record, but truthfully, every genre of music goes through this identity crisis as it gains popularity. There are always artists who want to make sure that their chosen form of music doesn\u2019t lose sight of its roots and avoids getting watered down. George Clinton and the members of Parliament were fighting this battle 40 years ago with Funkentelechy vs. the Placebo Syndrome. And they did it in the most tripped out Parliament-Funkadelic flavored way possible.\nDisco was firmly taking hold in 1977. The Saturday Night Fever film and its accompanying soundtrack were released just weeks before Funkentelechy arrived. The Village People\u2019s self-titled debut album had hit the shelves over the summer. Donna Summer released two albums that year. Even Ringo Starr and Bill Cosby put out disco and \u201cdance oriented\u201d albums that year. And when it came to funk and soul groups, Cameo, The Commodores, and Rufus all released albums that, while excellent, were decidedly influenced by this music that was taking a firm hold of the charts and the dance floor.\nIt wasn\u2019t that George Clinton had anything against dancing. The Parliament-Funkadelic collective that he spearheaded was basically split into two bands: Parliament and Funkadelic. Through the mid-\u201970s, Funkadelic mostly recorded acid-soaked rock and blues influenced funk music, while Parliament was a bit more accessible. The majority of Parliament\u2019s output was dedicated to the art of moving butts, and Funkentelechy vs. the Placebo Syndrome itself is devoted to making the listeners dance. However, Clinton did believe that disco was a watered-down version of the funk he had pioneered, and Parliament was still intent on creating that uncut funk.\nFunkentelechy vs. the Placebo Syndrome is framed as a battle for the soul of the funk. But since this is George Clinton and Parliament, it was a battle fought through bizarre characters, concepts, and slang, both on record and in accompanying artwork and comics. So, in their terms, it was indeed \u201cFunkentelechy,\u201d the true soul of funk, battling it out against the sanitized, commercial version of dance music, a.k.a. \u201cthe Placebo Syndrome.\u201d Even though Funkentelechy vs. the Placebo Syndrome was Parliament\u2019s most \u201cdance oriented\u201d album to date, it was always firmly rooted in the unique style that Clinton and his crew developed.\nBoth sides had their respective champions. In one corner stood the Starchild, funk\u2019s champion, protector of the Pleasure Principle, journeying across the cosmos in the Mothership and armed with the Bop Gun. In the other corner is Sir Nose D\u2019Voidoffunk, the Subliminal Seducer and a funkless entity who swears that he will never dance. Clinton had been using the Starchild alias since Parliament\u2019s masterful Mothership Connection (1975), while the idea of Sir Nose appears to have been inspired by a line from a song by P-Funk all-star Bootsy Collins released earlier that year. During the intro to the single \u201cThe Pinocchio Theory,\u201d Collins proclaims, \u201cDon\u2019t fake the funk or your nose will grow!\u201d And thus Starchild\u2019s arch-nemesis was born.\nParliament\u2019s line-up for Funkentelechy vs. the Placebo Syndrome was, as usual, a functional P-Funk All-Star band. Beyond band-leader Clinton, it included, among many other, Gary Shider on lead guitar, Glenn Goins on guitar and vocals, Cardell Mosson on bass, Fred Wesley and Maceo Parker on trombone and saxophone respectively, Jerome \u201cBigfoot\u201d Brailey on drums, and the incomparable Bernie Worrell on keys. Brothers Bootsy and Phelps \u201cCatfish\u201d Collins contributed their talents to one track on the album, and the Brides of Funkenstein sang background vocals on a few tracks. All involved are on the top of their game here, but Funkentelechy really showcases the brilliance of Worrell. The mid to late \u201970s were Worrell\u2019s golden era, and he was demonstrating his brilliance across of Parliament-Funkadelic's material.\nFunkentelechy leads off with \u201cBop Gun (Endangered Species),\u201d which serves as the introduction to Starchild\u2019s weapon of choice. The principles of operation of said Bop Gun are straightforward: blast someone decidedly un-funky, and they will dance. The song\u2019s hard-charging rhythmic tempo is controlled by the Horny Horn brass section and Brailey\u2019s pulsing drums, while Worrell\u2019s flourishes on the keys make things upbeat and lively. Goins has the lead vocal on the song, and he is as brash and bold as ever, bellowing the empowering rallying cries of \u201cTurn me loose! We shall overcome! Where\u2019d you get that funk from?\u201d and \u201cGotta get over the hump!\u201d Goins possessed a powerful and resonant voice, and became known for being the member of the group who \u201ccalls the Mothership\u201d during Parliament live shows. \u201cBop Gun\u201d would be Goins last contribution to a Parliament-Funkadelic song, as he and others left the group soon after this album was released. He formed the group Quazar in 1978, before dying later that year due to Hodgkin\u2019s Lymphoma.\nThe album next introduces its aforementioned villain on the aptly named \u201cSir Nose D'Voidoffunk (Pay Attention - B3M).\u201d The song begins with Sir Nose delivering his soliloquy, stating in no uncertain terms that he will never dance. Then over a piano-driven groove, Clinton as Starchild recites drug-related nursery rhymes. While he dabbles in switching up \u201cBa Ba Black Sheep,\u201d he\u2019s mainly concerned with the Blind Three Mice (the B3M from the song\u2019s title), declaring that he \u201cloves those meeces to pieces.\u201d Starchild also dedicates himself to \u201cchasing the noses away,\u201d and hunting Sir Nose, who he puts on notice by asserting, \u201cPut that snoot to use, you mutha! 'Cause you will dance, sucker!\u201d Meanwhile, the Brides of Funkenstein repeatedly chant, \u201cSyndrome, Tweedle-dee-dee-dum. Humdrum, don't succumb.\u201d\nAt a hair under 11 minutes, \u201cFunkentelechy\u201d is the only song on the album that feels its length. Clinton shifts personas, this time playing the role of the Lollipop Man, last seen on the Mothership Connection album. Over a bouncy bassline and shimmering horns, the radio DJ repeats jingle-like catchphrases, touting \u201cFunkentelechy\u201d as the cure to the fakeness and diminishing returns of disco music. After stating, \u201cYou might as well pay attention if you can't afford free speech,\u201d Clinton \u201csells\u201d his product by repeating such expressions as \u201cThe bigger the headache, the bigger the pill,\u201d \u201cPecking lightly, like a woodpecker with a headache,\u201d and \u201cFunk is a non-profit organization.\u201d But, on this song, the horn section led by Wesley and Parker is the star, as they keep the track moving and contribute the heavy funk on the breakdowns and the bridge.\nThe crew does switch things up a couple of times on Funkentelechy. \u201cWizards of Finance\u201d seems to exist outside the album\u2019s theme. The song is about as close Parliament came to recording a straightforward R&B/Soul ballad, but still shows flashes of the group\u2019s early doo-wop influences. \u201cThe Placebo Syndrome\u201d is a decidedly more funk-influenced ballad. Here band-member Billy Nelson takes center stage, as he lends his melodious vocals and his watery bass playing to the song. Worrell\u2019s keys and the Horny Horns section bolster the track, which warns of the dangers to submitting to \u201cthe syndrome,\u201d or, once again, faking the funk.\nFunkentelechy closes with not only one of Parliament\u2019s best songs, but also one of the best funk songs ever recorded. \u201cFlash Light\u201d is a shining beacon of the power of the funk. It showcases the battle between Starchild and Sir Nose. The clash goes as predicted, with Starchild blasting Sir Nose with the Bop Gun, shining \u201cthe spotlight on \u2019em,\u201d and making him dance despite protestations.\nThe song features the talents of the Collins brothers, as Catfish contributes some of the best guitar playing of his career, and Bootsy is understated yet flawless on the drums. Clinton contributes lead vocals this time around, playing the roles of both the hero and the antagonist, narrating Sir Nose\u2019s defeat, triumphantly declaring, \u201cEverybody's got a little light under the sun!\u201d But its Worrell who\u2019s the star again, and he displays astounding skills on the keys, playing both the lead synth, and creating a bassline through a complimentary synth track as well. His works on the lead synth is almost beyond comparison, as he plays complicated runs and creates a soaring whirlwind of funk energy.\n\u201cFlash Light\u201d is an example of how a funk track can be accessible yet remain true to the group\u2019s roots. No wonder then that it is arguably Parliament\u2019s most successful single, capturing the #1 spot on the U.S. R&B charts, going platinum, and becoming one of their trademark songs. And it\u2019s still a great song to dance to.\nFunkentelechy vs. the Placebo Syndrome represents the end of Parliament-Funkadelic\u2019s second act. As mentioned above, the band\u2019s members began exiting the fold in 1978, even as they still churned out excellent music for the next four years. However, from 1978 on, the musical differences between the Parliament and Funkadelic incarnations of the group were virtually non-existent, as both sides moved towards creating more anthemic funk tracks.\nBut on the Parliament side of the equation, Starchild and Sir Nose would continue their \u201cbattle\u201d on record. Though true funk music persevered, disco wasn\u2019t going anywhere, at least in the immediate future (the infamous \u201cDisco Demolition Night\u201d at Chicago\u2019s Comiskey Park was still over a year and a half away). So Clinton and Parliament continued to create quirky concepts and characters to convey his message of positivity and funk\u2019s ability to conquer all. With Funkentelechy vs. the Placebo Syndrome, they were successful, as it\u2019s one of the most enduring funk albums ever recorded.\nBUY Parliament\u2019s Funkentelechy vs. the Placebo Syndrome via Amazon | iTunes\nTags Parliament, Parliament-Funkadelic, George Clinton, Bootsy Collins, Bernie Worrell\n\u2190 TRIBUTE: Celebrating 35 Years of Michael Jackson\u2019s \u2018Thriller\u2019TRIBUTE: Celebrating 45 Years of Steely Dan\u2019s Debut Album \u2018Can\u2019t Buy a Thrill\u2019 \u2192",

        "raw_content": "Don't ignore the boar! Minerals and vitamins for breeding boars\nThe boar is the most neglected animal on the pig unit according to the authors of a new book \"The Nutrition of Sows and Boars\", published by Nottingham University Press. In this extract from Chapter 11, \"The Boar\", a thorough review is given of the mineral and vitamin requirements of the working boar, and illustrates the need to examine the nutrition of boars more closely.\nBy WH Close and DJA Cole\nThe boar is the most neglected animal in the pig unit\nThe nutrition of the boar has received scant attention. Information relating to the nutritional requirements and responses of the breeding boar is therefore limited and this topic received little mention in the reviews of ARC (1981) and NRC (1988, 1998). Many recommendations have therefore been based on the breeding sow. If boars are to be reared for breeding purposes, then physical soundness and future reproductive performance are as important as good growth rate. Young boars are normally selected according to an index which includes such characteristics as growth rate, appetite, feed conversion efficiency, lean tissue growth rate, carcass quality and breeding potential. They are normally fed to appetite and it is assumed that this does not prejudice subsequent reproductive capacity. It may however affect their physical ability to perform since the tendency to leg weakness may be exacerbated by high rates of growth and by feeding to appetite (Grondalen, 1974; Hanssen and Grondalen, 1979; Kesel et al., 1983). Penny and Guise (1989) reported that the annual culling rate of boars in commercial herds is 40-60%, with the primary reason being excessive weight gain and animals becoming too large. This suggests that the priorities for nutrients and the nutritional requirements of the breeding boar may differ markedly from those bred for meat production or from those of the breeding sow. It is therefore important to establish the nutritional requirements and responses of the breeding boar at the various stages of development, to assess whether nutrition influences sexual development and reproductive capacity, and to make recommendations on appropriate feeding strategies to ensure good reproductive performance.\nNutrition until puberty\nUnder normal conditions, boars attain puberty between 5 and 8 months of age, when they weigh 80-120kg bodyweight. Age is more important than bodyweight in determining the onset of puberty (Einarsson, 1975). There may be differences in the age of attainment of puberty, and Sellier et al. (1973) and Kim et al. (1976) have shown that crossbred boars reach puberty earlier than their pure-bred counterparts by as much as 40 days. When rearing boars, the objective is, therefore, to allow them to attain puberty at a normal rate rather than to stimulate the precocious attainment of sexual development.\nRequirements for minerals\nCalcium (Ca) and phosphorus (P) are the most important minerals to consider in the nutrition of the working boar as they are crucial not only to optimise growth rate but also bone ineralisation, and hence the overall soundness of the limbs. There has been an increase in leg abnormalities in boars over the last 25 years, including joint abnormalities and lesions on the heel and toes, partly attributable to nutrient inadequacies (Gronalden, 1974). However, the incidence of leg weakness (osteochondrosis) varies between different breeds (van der Wal et al.1987), making precise recommendations for mineral requirements more difficult.\nIt is generally accepted that higher dietary levels of Ca and P are required for optimum bone mineralisation than for maximum performance during the growth processes of the boar (Hickman and Mahan, 1980). Hines et al. (1979) recommended concentrations of 9.3 and 7.5 g/kg of Ca and P, respectively, in the diet for maximal bone development but only 5.5 and 4.5 g/kg for growth. Similarly, Hickman et al. (1983) found that in young boars the requirements for Ca and P were higher than recommended by NRC (1979). Kornegay and Thomas (1981) and Kornegay et al. (1981) also found that maximum bone development occurred at Ca and P levels of 1.25 the NRC (1973) recommendations for mineral requirements of 6.5 and 5.0 g/kg respectively, during the growing phase, and 5.0 and 4.0 g/kg respectively, during the finishing phase. However, in the former study, little effect of dietary calcium and phosphorus on foot soundness and toe lesions was observed, although the number of toe cracks was reduced in animals fed 1.25 and 1.5 times the NRC recommendations for Ca and P levels in the diet. More recently, Lio Chung Wen (1996) showed that the best growth performances of growing boars were achieved when the diet contained 10 g Ca/kg and 8 g P/kg. However, for optimum bone mineralisation the requirements had increased to 12.5 g Ca/kg and 10.0 g P/kg.\nSoundness of limbs is an important index to consider as foot-related problems are a major contributory factor to the loss of libido and inability of the boar to mount a sow or dummy. Kesel et al. (1983) reported that boars which had been fed 150% of the NRC (1973) recommendations for dietary Ca and P had heavier and thicker-walled metacarpals with greater bone strength than boars fed 100% of the recommendations. The weight, size, thickness, strength and ash content increased with age, with a small decline in the rate of increase, suggesting a reduction in the Ca and P requirements with age (Kornegay et al., 1981). This reduction with age may be less than that for breeding sows, and Liptrap et al. (1970) have shown that boars have significantly heavier bones with higher moment of inertia but with lower breaking stress values than gilts. Accordingly, for boars up to 50kg the dietary requirements for Ca and P should be set close to those suggested by Hines et al. (1979) of 9.5 and 7.5 g/kg, respectively. For boars above 50 kg body weight and during their breeding life the requirements should be set at 7.0-7.5 and 5.5-6.0 g/kg, respectively. Thus, as the animal grows the Ca:P ratio should be within the range 1.3 to 1.5:1.\nThere is no evidence to suggest that the Ca:P ratio is important in spermatogenesis or semen quality per se. In contrast, zinc does have an established role in spermatogenesis, since zinc deficiencies are implicated in retardation of the development of the leydig cells, a reduced response to leutenising hormone and reduced testicular steroidogenesis (Hesketh, 1982). A level of 100 mg/kg is therefore recommended.\nBoth selenium and vitamin E serve as antioxidants in boar sperm and they influence testicular and/or spermatozoa development and subsequent sperm motility. A deficiency of either may therefore influence different aspects of the whole reproduction process and possibly the fertilisation of oocytes in the female. A recent study by Marin-Guzman et al. (1997) has demonstrated the importance of dietary selenium for boar fertility. They fed boars a basal diet supplemented with either 0.5 ppm Se or 220 IU vitamin E/kg. Semen from adult boars fed the Se-supplemented diet produced greater volumes and concentrations of sperm which had higher motility than from boars fed the vitamin E-supplemented diet. There was no decline in sperm motility in the 16 week period of the trial as well as fewer abnormal sperm. In addition, the sperm from the boars fed the Se-supplemented diet had higher fertilisation capacity which resulted in the fertilisation rate of inseminated gilts also being higher (Table 1).\nThe results demonstrated that an adequate supply of dietary selenium is essential for the proper development of spermatozoa and for optimising the fertilisation rate of gilts and sows. Vitamin E does not entirely replace Se. A deficiency of Se gives a greater reduction than vitamin E and supplementation of Se gives a greater response. Similar to the growing and finishing pig, a dietary inclusion rate of 0.3 ppm Se is recommended for boars.\nAlthough not allowed in some countries, it may be advisable to add 200 ppb chromium to boar diets. Chromium is involved in many metabolic processes within the body, for example, it is the glucose tolerance factor and it stimulates the action of the hormone insulin. It has also been shown to enhance sperm count and fertility in male rats and has been shown to reduce stress in a range of animal species. It may therefore increase the reproductive potential of the boar.\nBoars show no additional requirements for the other major minerals in relation to sows and the recommended mineral requirements for growing or breeding boars are shown in Table 2.\nRequirements for vitamins\nIt has been suggested that the working boar has no additional vitamin requirements above those of the average breeding sow (adjusted according to maintenance requirements). However, the role of biotin in the diet of boars is becoming increasingly important as a result of its association with foot lesions and the attendant implications this has for reproductive performance in the boar. There is also an indication that vitamins E and C may be of special importance in the diet of stress-susceptible breeds. The vitamin requirements for both the growing and breeding boar are presented in Table 3.\nBiotin is an essential water-soluble, sulphurcontaining vitamin, which although widely distributed in nature, is present in relatively small concentrations, and has a limited bioavailability. The symptoms associated with deficiency of biotin in the diet of pigs include reduced growth rate, hair loss, dry scaly skin, spasticity of the hind limbs, erosion of the soft toe heel and extensive cracking of the toe heel and horn (Kornegay, 1986). Foot and toe lesions are generally associated with lameness, and an increase in foot abnormalities in pigs over the last 25 years has been reported (van der Wal et al., 1987), due in part to the poor conditions of housing and poor floor surfaces. Supplementation of the diet with biotin has been shown to strengthen the hoof significantly (Webb et al., 1984). It was initially shown that experimentally induced deficiencies in both young pigs and sows produce hoof cracks and lesions that are responsive to biotin supplementation. Similarly, foot lesions in sows housed in confinement can be reduced, although not completely prevented, by adding biotin to diets containing commonly-used feed ingredients (Penny et al., 1980; Bryant et al., 1985a, b).\nThe precise mode of action of biotin in the prevention of foot lesions is still uncertain. It is known that biotin increases the compressive strength and hardness of the hoof wall whilst decreeing the hardness of the heel bulb tissue (Webb et al., 1984). A soft heel bulb presumably acts as a cushion, minimising stresses and absorbing strain energy. In view of the noted effects on leg weaknesses and foot lesions on the ability of the boar to mount a sow and on its libido, the supplementation of biotin to the diet is a potential route whereby overall reproductive performance could be increased.\nHowever, under current production systems, where boars are frequently housed on poorly-designed floors, the animals are unlikely to recover since the extent of the injury may exceed the capacity of the hoof for growth and repair. This indicates that certain problems experienced by the working boar need to be addressed at the more practical level of housing rather than that of nutritional status or dietary supplementation. Despite this, it is suggested that diets for working boars contain at least 0.3mg biotin/kg, but if foot problems exist then this should be increased to 1mg/kg diet.\nThe continuous selection of animals for faster growth may also have resulted in an increase in the incidence of porcine stress syndrome. Stress-susceptible animals can undergo a fatal malignant hyperthermia when exposed to strenuous activities such as exercise and transportation. This frequently leads to mortality and a carcass condition known as PSE (pale soft exudative) meat which represents a considerable financial and management problem. In terms of their metabolic and biological status, stresssusceptible pigs under resting conditions are characterised by increases plasma activities of creatine kinase, pyruvate kinase and conjugated dienes and thiene barbituric acid reactive substances (Duthie and Arthur, 1987). These components are indices of cell membrane damage and lipid peroxidation and can be decreased by the addition of large quantities of vitamin E and selenium (potent antioxidants) to the diet.\nVitamin E functions as an antioxidant at the cell membrane and it has a structural role in all membranes. Hoppe et al. (1989) and Duthie et al. (1989) showed that the conditions responsible for stress-susceptibility are decreased when diets are supplemented with vitamin E. In addition, when fed in conjunction with increased dietary levels of selenium or vitamin C (an additional antioxidant) there may be an additional protective effect on cell membrane integrity. The specific importance of reducing stress-susceptibility in the working boar is related to its ability to perform. The excitement associated with mounting a sow or dummy may be sufficient to induce a fatal response in susceptible individuals and so where a particular stress-sensitive boar is used, supplementation of the diet with antioxidants could prove helpful. However, it may be better not to use such animals in order to prevent the inheritance of this trait throughout the herd.\nIt is generally assumed that pigs can synthesise adequate amounts of vitamin C to meet their metabolic needs (NRC, 1979). However, there is growing evidence that the pig\u2019s requirement for vitamin C is increased under stressful conditions, such as changes in environmental conditions and when excessive handling occurs. In addition, increased concentration of vitamin C in semen helps to protect the sex cells from oxidative damage. Thus, working boars may benefit from supplemental vitamin C in their diet on the assumption that it improves metabolism resulting in better growth, improved feed conversion and better foot and leg structure (Riker et al., 1967). However, the results from studies on the merits of vitamin C supplementation are equivocal. Cleveland et al. (1987) failed to show any effects of supplemental vitamin C on performance traits or composite soundness scores of the foot and leg structure, although the straightness of the front legs was improved. Nielsen and Vinther (1984) reported more positive results since animals fed an additional 1g of vitamin C per day exhibited a lower incidence of bent and crooked front legs. Pigs given 700 ppm of vitamin C in their diet were found to have better locomotion scores compared with animals receiving 0 or 350 ppm (Nakano et al., 1983) but Strittmatter et al. (1977) had previously failed to detect any effects on overall joint or visual soundness in pigs receiving an additional supplement of 780 ppm vitamin C. Liu et al. (1990) provided 300 mg vitamin C per day and reported better semen quality with fewer abnormal sperm compared with non-supplemented boars especially in hot conditions. It is therefore not possible to make a definitive statement regarding supplemental requirements for vitamin C in the diet of the working boar, although a potential role cannot be ignored.\n\"The Nutrition of Sows and Boars\" is available from Nottingham University Press priced \u00a350.

        "title": "How I Improved My Running Stride",
        "raw_content": "I\u2019ve been a lifelong runner starting with sprint and middle distances on the track in middle and high school, and then started 2 mile runs during my time in the military, eventually moving into marathons, triathlons, and every distance in between. I had a break from running to focus on training for the Race Across America cycling race in 2016, and took nearly a year off of running completely for the first time in my life since I started. Coming back from that I felt that my stride had changed quite a bit, it just didn\u2019t feel the same. Some days I would feel like my old self, some days not so much, there were definitely some changes that had occurred.\nAfter a video analysis session one of the key takeaways that was brought to my attention was that there was too much vertical oscillation in my stride. I was moving upwards with every stride quite a bit. I needed more horizontal propulsion with less vertical oscillation in my stride for better economy, especially over long distance. I\u2019ve always been a \u201cbouncy runner\u201d, so I knew I was not going to be able to eliminate it completely, but I did need to focus as much of that energy that I could into the forward motion. Over the last year I\u2019ve been working on this to bring about the changes that I need in my stride. First and foremost, being aware that this was going on has helped me to be conscious of my movement. Secondly, I have incorporated drills in my workouts to help achieve the correct motor patterns that I am looking for.\nBack to basics\u2026 when aiming to improve your running economy, awareness of where the ground is in relation to your body is paramount. Let the ground come to you. We make contact with the ground, and the ground pushes back. The body reads this impact and decides how much force to then apply for propulsion. The more focused contacts we have with the ground the better our awareness is. I always used to incorporate drills in my warm up or cool down sessions but I had gotten away from this because I wasn\u2019t running at all, then when I started running again I was neglecting them. My go to drills are butt kicks, A-skips, ankle hops, and strides aka pick-ups often after my workouts. While these additions do not make up the bulk of my training, without them something just wasn\u2019t right. Additionally, I started paying closer attention, otherwise known as being very present, in my workouts in order to run \u201cquietly\u201d and minimize bounce. After six months of focus I have consistently lowered my vertical oscillation by around 10%.\nWhile I was worried after RAAM that I would not be able to run fast again I can say that the speed and economy are now coming back to me.\nPrevious Post: \u00ab How 10 Years of Changing My Diet Led Me to One Final Conclusion\nNext Post: What\u2019s In My Swim Bag? \u00bb",

        "title": "Online Psychology Classes Can Offer You Options",
        "raw_content": "Online psychology classes are becoming more popular and readily available all the time. It was only a few years ago that psychology classes weren't even available online - your only option was to go to a traditional college or university and sit in a classroom listening to the psychology instructor.\nThe internet has changed all of that and now, you can take a variety of online psychology classes from the comfort of your own home, often on your own schedule. Although people questioned the quality of classes being offered online at first, online courses are now widely accepted as a viable option to traditional classroom settings.\nWhether you're a psychology major interested in a bachelor's, Master's, or Ph.D. in psychology, or just taking a psychology class for fun, online psychology classes are great options for just about any student.\nBenefits of Online Psychology Classes\nSome people will always prefer traditional classrooms, but there are many benefits of taking psychology classes online. Let's take a look at just a few of the benefits:\nCost Effectiveness - In many cases, taking psychology classes online offers significant cost savings compared to brick and mortar schools. In addition to the cost savings of the class itself, you also save money (and significant time) by not having to commute, or pay for parking, or pay for gas, the bus, train, etc. Not only do you save money, you also save a lot of time by not having to commute back and forth.\nFlexibility - Taking classes online provides significantly more flexibility than traditional classes. Online psychology classes may be offered synchronously or asynchronously. In a synchronous class, students and the teacher login to a site at the same time, and experience the class at the same time. In an asynchronous class, all the students have exactly the same information, take the same testes, etc., but they take the course on their own time. In addition, if you have a computer, you can take the class online. This means that you can take the class from the comfort of your own home, in your pajamas after putting the kids to bed, sitting in a coffee shop, or while you travel around the world. Try doing that with a traditional class.\nClasses For Everyone - People often feel that psychology classes are not available to them if they're not a psychology major or registered as a full time student. Taking your classes online makes psychology classes available to everyone, from part-time students, to fulltime students, to those that just want to take a single course. It's also a great option if you're looking to advance your career by taking specific courses or doing continuing education.\nSpeed - A benefit of online psychology classes that many people overlook is the speed with which you can complete the classes. Often times you can complete psychology classes (and degrees) online in much less time than traditional classes. This is a huge benefit to working students or those with families.\nAre Online Psychology Classes For You?\nDeciding to take classes in person or online is a highly individual and personal decision. If you're looking for the full collegiate experience, you probably want to take your classes the traditional way - in the classroom, instructor in front of the room lecturing. However, if you are a working adult, have a family, are looking to advance your career, or simply don't want to spend the money on traditional classes, online psychology classes may be exactly what you're looking for.\nI've had the privilege of experiencing both options at different psychology schools, and they really are great options - it just depends on your needs and preferences. I would urge you to explore the many options using our graduate school search engine, which even has an option to search for schools that offer psychology classes online.\nI hope this information was helpful and that you have a better understanding of online psychology classes and the options available to you.",

Long-term care consists of services and supports that people need to meet their daily needs.\nWhat is the Managed Long-Term Care Expansion Initiative?\nThe Wisconsin Department of Health and Family Services, Division of Disability and Elder Services, has embarked on an initiative to expand managed long-term care options for elders and people with disabilities in Wisconsin. Long-term care consists of services and supports that people need to meet their daily needs. These services and supports include: assistance with activities such as eating, bathing, or using the telephone; nurse visits at home; home delivered meals; home modifications; nursing home care; and case management. Many Wisconsinites take advantage of these supports and services, but over 11,000 others are waiting to receive them.\nIn his February 2006 State of the State Address, Wisconsin Governor Jim Doyle announced his goal to expand the Family Care program statewide over the next five years. Family Care has proven to successfully meet the needs of long-term care consumers in five pilot counties. As a first step toward achieving this goal, DHFS has awarded grants to ten groups to carry out intensive planning activities. These planning groups include county governments and private agencies working in partnership.\nCounties involved in the ten planning grants are illustrated in Figure 1. More information about these\nplanning groups is posted on the website provided below.\nThrough this initiative planning groups will develop strategies to improve:\n\u2022 Access \u2013 by assuring people get the services they need, when they need them;\n\u2022 Choice \u2013 by giving people meaningful choices about where they receive their care and how they live their lives;\n\u2022 Quality \u2013 by making sure long-term care services work to support a good quality of life for each\nconsumer; and\n\u2022 Cost-effectiveness \u2013 by building a cost-effective long-term care system that is sustainable into the future.",

        "raw_content": "Job-Related Injury & Workers' Compensation - Legal Overview\nLearn about your rights to workers' compensation benefits following a workplace injury, and how to protect your claim.\nIf you get hurt on the job, it is important that you understand your state\u2019s workers\u2019 compensation system. Workers\u2019 compensation (sometimes referred to as \u201cworkman\u2019s compensation\u201d) may be your only means of receiving compensation for a work-related injury, so read on to learn the details of how workers' comp works.\nUnderstanding Worker's Compensation\nIf you suffer a work-related injury or illness, you are probably entitled to receive workers\u2019 compensation benefits. The types of injuries covered by workers\u2019 compensation include physical injuries, illnesses, and some psychological or stress-related injuries. These injuries or illnesses can occur at any time, so long as they are work-related.\nWorkers\u2019 compensation may be the only means of your recovery for work-related injuries or illness. This means that you cannot initiate a civil lawsuit against your employer. Instead, you must file a claim through your state\u2019s administrative workers\u2019 compensation agency. Most employers are required to pay into the workers\u2019 compensation system by purchasing insurance through the state's workers' compensation fund.\nMost states' systems will cover the following workers' compensation benefits:\nMedical bills. If you have medical bills, they will be paid for to help you recover from your work-related injuries. However, keep in mind that your choices of doctors may be limited.\nTemporary disability benefits. If your injury prevents you from performing your job normally and, as a result, you lose wages, you may receive temporary disability benefits. These payments are usually available only after you miss several days of work.\nPermanent disability benefits. If you do not completely recover from you injuries, you may receive permanent disability benefits based upon the nature and extent of your impairment or injury.\nDeath benefits. If you die from a work-related injury or illness, your spouse or children may receive death benefits.\nFor a more thorough explanation of available benefits and the amounts, see this page.\nLimitations On Benefits\nThe amount of benefits that you are entitled to receive to compensate you for your work-related injury or illness may be limited by the laws of your state. Each state has its own rules for how an injury should be compensated. Some states have a list that affixes a dollar amount for the type of injury. Other states mandate that compensation is based on a scale or rating of injuries or disabilities.\nProtecting Your Claim After an Accident\nIf you receive a work-related injury or illness, immediately report it to your supervisor. If the injury or illness has gradually worsened over time (such as carpal tunnel syndrome), report it as soon as you think it was caused by your job. If you do not report your injury within a certain amount of time -- usually within 30 days -- you may lose your right to collect the workers\u2019 compensation benefits to which you would otherwise have been entitled.\nFor more on how to make the accident report to protect a potential injury claim, see this article on making the report.\nWhen you can return to work after your work-related injury or illness is a difficult question to answer and will depend upon the extent of your injury. Furthermore, a number of people will have input in deciding how soon you can return to work. This list includes your treating doctor, employer, claims administrator, and attorney (if you have one).\nIf you have not completely recovered from your injury, you may nevertheless be able to return to work with restrictions on the tasks you are assigned to prevent you from aggravating your injury. If you are entirely unable to return to work, you may be entitled to permanent disability benefits.",

        "title": "Farewell turtle hatchlings! | Alor Divers - The Blog",
        "raw_content": "We are excited to announce that the first relocated turtle nest hatched two weeks ago. We have waited long enough to ensure all viable and healthy hatchlings crawled out of the nest before we dug up the remains of the nest to determine the hatching success rate. The count we got was as high as 75% ! Of course our hope for the future is to see the reproduction cycle completed when some of them will hopefully return to Alor and lay their own eggs.\nPhoto from Alor Divers beach front:\nBABY TURTLES ON THEIR WAY TO THE SEA\nFrom the photos we have found on the web we have identified the species of hatchlings as Loggerhead turtle.\nThe picture below shows four different types of sea turtle hatchlings ;\nL to R: Loggerhead, Hawksbill, Green and Leatherback.\nIf you are interested to find out a bit more on turtle hatching, please continue to read\u2026\n(following is the excerpt from the website seeturtles.org)\nWatching a baby turtle struggle out of the nest and make its way to the water is an emotional experience. Every little bump between the nest and the see can be an obstacle. Birds, crabs and fish are just a few of thepredators these vulnerable creatures face. Some experts say only one out of a thousand will survive to adulthood under natural conditions.\nAfter an adult female sea turtle nests, she returns to the sea, leaving her nest and the eggs within it to develop on their own. The amount of time the egg takes to hatch varies among the different species and is influenced by environmental conditions such as the temperature of the sand. The hatchlings do not have sex chromosomes so their gender is determined by the temperature within the nest.\nThe Pivotal Temperature of a Baby Turtle\nWhether hatchlings are male or female depends on the temperature where they are in the nest, known as the \u201cpivotal temperature. \u00bb The temperature varies slightly among species, ranging between roughly 83-85 degrees Fahrenheit (28-29 degrees Celsius), at which embryos within a nest develop into a mix of males and females. Temperatures above this range produce females and colder temperatures produce males. After 45 to 70 days (depending on the species), the hatchlings begin to pip, or break out of their eggs, using a small temporary tooth located on their snout called a caruncle. Once out of their eggs, they will remain in the nest for a number of days. During this time they will absorb their yolk, which is attached by an umbilical to their abdomen. This yolk will provide them the much-needed energy for their first few days while they make their way from the nest to offshore waters.\nThe hatchlings begin their climb out of the nest in a coordinated effort. Once near the surface, they will often remain there until the temperature of the sand cools, usually indicating nighttime, when they are less likely to be eaten by predators or overheat. Once the baby turtles emerge from the nest, they use cues to find the water including the slope of the beach, the white crests of the waves, and the natural light of the ocean horizon.\nIf the hatchlings successfully make it down the beach and reach the surf, they begin what is called a \u201cswimming frenzy\u201d which may last for several days and varies in intensity and duration among species. The swimming frenzy gets the hatchlings away from dangerous nearshore waters where predation is high. Once hatchlings enter the water, their\u00ab lost years \u00bb begin and their whereabouts will be unknown for as long as a decade. When they have reached approximately the size of a dinner plate, the juvenile turtles will return to coastal areas where they will forage and continue to mature.\nDid You Know These Baby Sea Turtle Facts?\nIt\u2019s estimated that only 1 in 1,000 hatchlings will survive to adulthood.\nSea turtle hatchlings eat a variety of prey including things like molluscs and crustaceans, hydrozoans, sargassum sea weed, jellyfish, and fish eggs. Unfortunately, hatchlings also mistake garbage and objects like tar balls as food and ingest them.\nLeatherbach and flatback hatchlings are significantly larger than other sea turtle species.\nLeatherbacks are pelagic (open water) even as hatchlings and their larger size helps maintain their temperature.\nHatchlings use the natural light horizon, which is usually over the ocean, along with the white crests of the waves to reach the water when they emerge from the nest. Any other light sources such as beachfront lighting, street lights, light from cars, campfires etc. can lead hatchlings in the wrong direction, also known as disorientation.\nOnce out of the nest, hatchlings face many predators including ghost crabs, birds, raccoons, dogs, and fish.\nMany scientists are concerned that rising global temperatures will result in warmer sand, causing more female than male baby turtles.\nFarewell turtle hatchlings!2015-06-032017-02-23https://www.alor-divers-blog.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/logo.pngAlor Divers - The Bloghttps://www.alor-divers-blog.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/turtle-hatchlings-leaving-Alor-Divers-beach-front.jpg200px200px\nTurtle conservation in AlorNews on Alor Divers Resort",

        "raw_content": "SolarWorld produces 280-watt, 60-cell Sunmodule solar panels at commercial volume\nNew power milestone once again puts SolarWorld ahead of high-volume global competitors\nHILLSBORO, Ore., June 10, 2014 \u2013 SolarWorld, the largest U.S. solar manufacturer for more than 35 years, is producing 280-watt-peak, 60-cell Sunmodule solar panels at unprecedented commercial volumes. This achievement again demonstrates SolarWorld's solar-industry technology leadership and represents an important step along SolarWorld's fast-escalating course toward manufacturing a 300-watt, 60-cell panel.\nVolume production of American-made 280-watt modules stems from investments of tens of millions of dollars in technological and production innovations in the company's Oregon factory, even amid the manufacturing industry's ongoing distress.\n\"Today's announcement is yet another example of how SolarWorld uses advanced technology and superior-quality materials to maximize power and efficiency in our panels,\" said Mukesh Dulani, U.S. president of SolarWorld. \"Our strength lies not just in our ability to innovate in the lab but also to translate those breakthroughs into commercial-scale production on the factory floor.\"\nBeginning in the second half of 2014, SolarWorld expects 280-watt solar panels to represent the majority of production at its U.S. manufacturing headquarters.\nThe 280-watt mono-crystalline Sunmodule taps advanced light-capture and energy-conversion technologies to achieve industry-leading power density in a 60-cell format. The panel is about 10 percent more efficient than industry-standard 250-watt 60-cell panels, enabling installation savings of about 10 cents a watt in labor and balance-of-systems costs. In fact, SolarWorld's 280-watt 60-cell solar panel offers nearly the same power as competitors' 72-cell panels, which typically range from 280 to 300 watts peak, but with a 15 percent savings in system footprint.\nThe company's ability to reliably deliver high-efficiency, American-made solar products has resulted in supply agreements with many of the nation's leading solar distributors and installers.\n\"In this technological world we live in, our customers place value on having access to the highest-performing solar panels on the market,\" said Jim Allen, vice president of sales and communications for Future Energy Savers, a SolarWorld Platinum Installer based in Elk Grove, Calif. \"We love that SolarWorld is always taking its product to the next level. That performance advantage, along with SolarWorld's American manufacturing, is a powerful combination.\"\nThe 280-watt Sunmodule solar panel comes with the same high quality, performance and reliability that customers have come to expect from SolarWorld, including a 25-year linear performance guarantee and 10-year product workmanship warranty, both consumer protections that the company pioneered. Like other wattage-class SolarWorld products, the new solar panels feature high-efficiency cells, a versatile frame to accommodate both top-down and bottom-up mounting, eight possible grounding locations and extended cable lengths for easier installation.&#8195;\nSolarWorld REAL VALUE: SolarWorld manufactures and sells solar power solutions and in doing so contributes to a cleaner energy supply worldwide. As the largest solar producer in the United States and Europe, SolarWorld employs about 3,200 people and carries out production in Hillsboro, Ore., and Freiberg and Arnstadt, Germany. From the raw material silicon to solar wafers, cells and panels, SolarWorld manages all stages of production &#8210; including its own research and development. The company maintains high social standards at all locations across the globe and is committed to resource- and energy-efficient production. Headquartered in Bonn, Germany, SolarWorld was founded in 1998 and has been publicly traded on the stock market since 1999. For more information, visit www.solarworld-usa.com.",

Penn State has long been a leader in football graduation rates, and Franklin doesn\u2019t see that changing.\n\u201cThe most important thing is there is a history and there is a culture and a tradition at Penn State of tremendous academic achievement, and that will continue,\u201d Franklin said. \u201cI know it\u2019s important to our president, and I know it\u2019s important, obviously, to our athletic director and all of our coaches.\u201d\nFranklin only met Barbour for the first time Saturday, shortly before she was announced as AD at a noon news conference. The coach said he has worked with people who know of Barbour\u2019s career, and vice versa, but they had never crossed paths.\nIt will take some time to forge a strong working relationship, Franklin said. How much time?\n\u201cThat\u2019s hard to say,\u201d he said. \u201cI\u2019m not the most patient person. You\u2019d love for it to happen in the next week. That\u2019s not going to happen. It\u2019s going to happen naturally over time. \u2026 There\u2019s already mutual respect there, and now we\u2019ve just got to continue to develop that relationship and that trust and that bond.\u201d\nThe working relationship and communication between an AD and coach can be very different depending on the people involved. A lot of it depends, Franklin said, on the AD\u2019s leadership style.\n\u201cSome ADs you might talk to them on a daily basis, every single day,\u201d the coach said. \u201cSome it may be weekly, some it may be monthly. It just depends on the structure that\u2019s put in place and their leadership style. I\u2019m comfortable with either. I\u2019ve kind of been in multiple different settings like that.\u201d\nFranklin joked that he will not be the person who helps Barbour get acclimated in State College, saying he himself only knows about three restaurants and the airport.\nAsked if he will go to Barbour with ideas or wait for her to initiate communication, Franklin said, \u201cIt needs to be both ways.\u201d Any healthy working relationship, he added, should be a give and take that way.\n\u201cFor me, the athletic director is a resource that I can go to,\u201d Franklin said. \u201cShe\u2019s got tremendous experience. She\u2019s been doing this over 30 years. I want to become that type of resource for her when it comes to my expertise, which is running the football program.\u201d",

        "title": "Google's Self-Driving Cars Hitting The Streets Of California",
        "raw_content": "Google\u2019s Self-Driving Cars Hitting The Streets Of California\nJune 29, 2015 Nick MacGregor Technology 2 Minutes Read\nGoogle\u2019s self-driving car is currently doing wonders in the US. Residents of Mountain View in California are travelling all around in the vehicle.\nThe self-driving car constitutes a number of advantages. No driver\u2019s license is required. Furthermore, they are relatively safe: the only 12 accidents reported since September 2014 were caused by humans and not because of the vehicle itself. However, their training wheels are still firmly attached, only reaching speeds of 40 km/h, and the cars need a driver behind the wheel in case of emergency.\nGoogle is now aiming to have the cars cover more distances. Driving more will come with challenges though: for instance, more data would be required to understand the possibilities of what could go wrong when the self-driving cars interact with normal vehicles on the road. The crashes reported so far were not serious; noone was injured. Still, Google researchers wish to determine the plausible hazardous situations that might arise. Then, the car\u2019s AI will be enhanced to fit the new conditions.\nChris Ziegler from The Verge explains that Google has initiated a platform where drivers can narrate their experiences with the cars.\n\u201cIt\u2019ll probably help that some of the cars are going to become rolling works of art \u2013 how can you hate a cute car covered in an even cuter pattern?\u201d said Ziegler. \u201cThen again, the cars are capped at \u2018a neighbourhood-friendly 25 mph (40 km/h),\u2019 so if you\u2019ve ever wanted to lay on your horn at an artificially intelligent vehicle that\u2019s going way too slow on a public street, this might be a wonderful opportunity.\u201d",

        "title": "American Football Monthly - Proven Performer",
        "raw_content": "Top programs are increasingly choosing the DX300 sideline communications system from HME for its proven reliability and superior features.\nSteve Lineweaver knows about reliable performance. As head coach of the Trinity Trojans in Euless, Texas, Lineweaver has built one of the most consistently outstanding high school programs in the nation. With 5A Division I state titles in 2005 and 2007 and a national top ranking for most of the 2008 season, the Trojans perform in high-profile, high-pressure situations every week.\nCoach Lineweaver and his staff understand that without the program evolving and adapting, continued success would be difficult. Whether tweaking the X\u2019s and O\u2019s in the playbook, finding cutting-edge training methods for the off-season, or investing in the latest technology, Trinity is always looking to find a way to raise their level of performance. One priority they needed to address in 2008 was sideline communications.\nWith seven coaches on the sideline and four in the press box for each game, good communication between coaches is important, and reliable performance of Trinity\u2019s wireless headset communications system is critical. \u201cThe ability to recognize opponents\u2019 alignments and tendencies and to communicate that information to the sideline is essential,\u201d said Lineweaver. \u201cKnowing that the headsets are going to work is one less concern for the staff.\u201d\nSo, prior to last season, Trinity switched to an all-new communications system \u2013 the DX300 from HME \u2013 that has given the Coach Lineweaver the confidence in his staff communication to match the Trojans\u2019 confidence on the field. \u201cWhen it comes time to play, the last thing on a coach\u2019s mind is if his headset will work,\u201d said Lineweaver. \u201cThe dependability of the HME DX300 system gives our staff a sense of security. The durability and dependability are the two features that sold us on the product.\u201d\nTrinity is not alone in making the switch to HME. Top programs around the country have become DX300 users as more and more coaches discover the proven performance and superior features that come with every system.\nSome might consider this success surprising for a product that\u2019s been on the market for less than two years, but not HME\u2019s Pro Audio Product manager Rick Molina. \u201cHME has been in business for over 35 years and we actually introduced the first wireless intercom system for professional users in 1979,\u201d according to Molina. \u201cThe DX300 is the latest in a long line of HME wireless intercom systems. We sell and service our wireless products in over 95 countries and we have been granted 29 patents.\u201d\nAnother program sold on the superiority of the DX300 system is Foothill High School in Palo Cedro, California. Led by Head Coach Bryon Hamilton, who AFM readers will recognize as the developer of the Shotgun Zone Fly offense, the Foothill Cougars achieved a perfect 12-0 season and a California Northern Section Division I title in 2007 \u2013 despite having an unreliable headset system. \u201cWe had suffered through several key games where our previous headsets failed to work or quit working in the middle of a game,\u201d recalled Hamilton. \u201cOur old set was very inconsistent and that is something that no football coach or team can accept in any phase of the game, including communication.\u201d\nAfter a full season using HME\u2019s DX300 system, unreliable communication between coaches is no longer an issue for Hamilton and his staff. \u201cOne word can describe the HME system \u2013 consistent. The HME headsets never failed us,\u201d he said. \u201cHaving good communication is vitally important and I\u2019m confident, after using the HME system for a season, that we won\u2019t have to worry about losing our communications in a game ever again. As a head coach, that\u2019s priceless.\u201d\nWhile dependability in a headset communications system usually refers to having uninterrupted signals during games, it can also mean having units that will stand up to the more physical demands that sometimes occur during games. Ask any coach who has, mistakenly or intentionally, dropped his headset during a game and had communications disconnected. \u201cKnowing that dropping a headset or belt pack is not going to kill the entire system is invaluable,\u201d Coach Lineweaver remarked.\nReliable headset performance is critical to coaches, but so is ease of setup and use. In these areas, the DX300 shines. According to Jason Caruso, who is Trinity High School\u2019s Tech Coordinator for football, the HME system excels because of its simplicity. \u201cSize, ease of setup and breakdown, along with versatility and durability, are the system\u2019s most important features for us,\u201d said Caruso. With 11 Trinity coaches using the system every game, easy set up and operations are critical.\nEven for the smaller Foothill Cougar program, which has only four coaches on the sideline and two in the booth on their DX300 system during games, having a system that is user-friendly has made a difference. \u201cThe system is very easy to use,\u201d commented Coach Hamilton. \u201cThe phones themselves are very light and easy to set up. The whole process is simple and reliable, which is a big asset to our staff.\u201d\nBattery performance is, of course, critically important for any headset communication system. The duration of the charge and the re-charging process are two additional areas that can sometimes frustrate coaches. But, in the case of the DX300, these issues are not a concern. \u201cThe battery life was incredible and the charging base is simple to use,\u201d said Foothill\u2019s Hamilton.\nAs you might expect from a company that has been a pioneer in wireless communications, the technology built into the battery system of HME\u2019s DX300 is superior. \u201cConstant monitoring of the battery condition in our Communicator\u00ae is unnecessary since you don\u2019t have to take it out of service while the battery is being charged,\u201d said HME\u2019s Molina. \u201cYou just snap in another battery from our stand alone four-port battery charger and go about your business. The communicators will let you know to change batteries about fifteen to twenty minutes before they need to be charged. With up to twenty hours on a full charged battery, most users will never hear the \u2018change battery\u2019 message.\u201d\nCutting-edge technology is also responsible for the DX300\u2019s clear, reliable signal that coaches experience during games. \u201cTo ensure secure, uninterrupted communication, the DX300 uses encryption and dual-slot diversity,\u201d according to Molina. \u201cWe\u2019ve used Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum with TDMA in our products for years and knew it could be improved. We actually encrypt the audio and transmit it twice, at different times and different hop frequencies, then select the strongest returned signal on our diversity antenna system. We believe in redundancy when so much is on the line.\u201d In layman\u2019s terms, HME adds tech features unique to the DX300 to make sure your game-time signals are stronger and clearer than you\u2019ve ever experienced before. Jason Caruso of Trinity confirms, \u201cThe DX300 is clearer and less likely to have interference.\u201d\nConsistent, dependable, durable, simple to use. All words used by two top coaches to describe the DX300 headset communications system from HME after using it for an entire season. If you\u2019re one of the hundreds of programs that will be looking for improved, more reliable sideline communications this off-season, take a tip from Steve Lineweaver and Bryon Hamilton and look into HME\u2019s revolutionary, yet affordable DX300.\n800-909-6604 www.hme.com",

        "title": "Butchers Blind - A Place In America",
        "raw_content": "2015 -Electric Giant Productions\nRecently I seem to have listened to several new albums on which the vocalists sound not too dissimilar to Don Henley. As I think I've said before I am not an Eagles fan but have always appreciated the quality of Henley's vocals, likewise Glen Frey's. Butchers Blind lead vocalist Pete Mancini has vocal pipes that are at least a match for those two but it gives me huge pleasure to say that this six song mini album/e.p has more appeal for me than anything the Eagles ever did.\nNot that I'm trying to criticize the Eagles. A band that had their enormous success has to have had something pretty special. It's just that the songs on this recording have an epic quality that have, and this is what makes them special, that indefinable edge that the aforementioned never really had; instead choosing to smooth off any rough edges. Not that 'A place in America' has particularly rough edges; on the contrary it is a beautifully conceived and produced recording and one that should help this band leap frog most of their better known peers to the pinnacle of countryfied rock. I can't really call it country rock because it doesn't follow that classic genre although on these songs that often have a powerful rock dynamic there is a strong country element but none of the mellow blandness that besets many bands.\nThis excellent recording follows on from two high quality full albums. To my mind the songs on this album are actually better than their predecessors, with the bands direction seeming firmer than on the first two albums, that whilst excellent were more difficult to describe in generic terms and therefore more difficult to promote. This one will certainly be put under the alt. country or country rock umbrella, either of which will give an adequate but not definitive idea of what awaits the potential listener.\nThey don't try to overuse vocal harmonies but where they are used they must be the envy of most bands. In fact, this band, whilst there is often a wash of sound don't actually try to overuse anything, instead choosing to let their songs, the vocals and their playing win or lose the game for them. In this case the win is huge and the over production that many bands use to cover weaknesses is never there in the first place, cementing the quality of this talented four pieces music. The band consists of Pete Mancini on guitar and vocals, Paul Anthony, drums and vocals, Brian Reilly on bass and Christopher Smith plays piano. Pete writes all of the songs and sings lead vocals but the individuality and skill that each brings to the band ensures this is very much a 'band' rather than a vehicle for Pete. Everything is aimed at portraying these six excellent songs in the best light possible, something they achieve seemingly with ease, although arranging songs that not only have memorable melodies but are also often 'epic' in scope must be very far from easy.\nAll of the songs have an excellent dynamism and depth with some having a powerfully cinematic quality, often in much the same way as the 'Band.' In the main they are stylistically different but they are able to create a world of density in every song, be it a near rocker or something that leans towards country balladry. The title song, A Place In America gets under way with piano and a slow reflective vocal before the powerful lead guitar comes in with bass and percussion lifting the song to an epic piece of cinematic soundtrack. It is not necessarily the lyrics that bring the cinematic feel but the emotional vocal and the dynamic rising and falling of the music. With the piano and guitar sharing the lead on most of the songs the combination adds a little diversity to their sound. I never really felt that the piano worked well on music that has its roots in country but it certainly works brilliantly for this band. Ghosts is an easy going mid tempo country rock ballad that looks back at a former lover, with gorgeous melodic guitar and harmonies, whilst the bass and percussion enhance the sense of power and the dramatic reflections on a tale that has a lovely lightness of touch.\nJust six songs that clock in at a little over twenty two minutes ensure that in my house the 'repeat' button is in constant use. The recording epitomizes the way that the modern day melodic blend of country rock and alt. country is going. In fact, had this been a full album it would certainly have been in my top ten so far this year.\nhttp://www.butchersblind.com/",

        "title": "Annual Report: Qatar 2013",
        "raw_content": "Annual Report: Qatar 2013\nHead of state Shaikh Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani\nHead of government Shaikh Hamad bin Jassim bin Jabr\nFreedom of expression continued to be curtailed. New cases of torture emerged. Women continued to face discrimination in law and practice, as well as violence. Foreign migrant workers, who comprised the majority of the workforce, were exploited, abused and inadequately protected under the law. At least one death sentence was imposed; no executions were reported.\nThe authorities maintained strict controls on freedom of expression, and moved to tighten these further with a new draft media law. If approved, this would require all publications to be approved by a government-appointed \u201ccompetent authority\u201d empowered to remove content or prevent printing.\nThe poet Mohammed al-Ajami, also known as Mohamed Ibn al-Dheeb, who was charged with \u201cinciting to overthrow the ruling regime\u201d and \u201cinsulting the Amir\u201d was sentenced to life imprisonment by the Doha Criminal Court on 29 November. His poems criticized repression in the Gulf States. He was detained incommunicado following his arrest in November 2011 and appeared to be a prisoner of conscience. He appealed against his conviction.\nMigrant workers' rights\nForeign migrant workers, who comprised more than 90% of Qatar's workforce, continued to be exploited and abused by employers despite protective provisions set out in the 2004 Labour Law and related decrees, which the authorities failed to adequately enforce. Workers' living conditions were often grossly inadequate and many workers said they were made to work excessive hours beyond the legal maximum or were paid far less than agreed when they were contracted.\nMigrant domestic workers, mostly women, and certain other workers were specifically excluded from the 2004 Labour Law, exposing them to greater labour exploitation and abuse, including sexual abuse. The government had previously committed to enact legislation to address this problem but it had not done so by the end of the year.\nThe 2009 Sponsorship Law, which requires foreign workers to obtain a sponsor's permission to leave Qatar or change employer, was exploited by employers to prevent workers from complaining to the authorities or moving to a new job in the event of abuse. The sponsorship system increased the likelihood of workers being subjected to forced labour. In October the state news agency reported that the Cabinet would form a panel to study the sponsorship issue.\nDiscrimination \u2013 denial of nationality\nSome 100 people, mostly members of al-Murra tribe who were arbitrarily stripped of their Qatari nationality in previous years, continued to be denied access to employment, social security and health care due to their statelessness. They were not permitted to challenge the decision to revoke their nationality in the courts and were denied any means of remedy.\nNew cases of torture and other ill-treatment emerged.\nFollowing their release, Abdullah al-Khawar and Salem al-Kawari alleged that while detained without charge or trial as security suspects in 2011, they were beaten, suspended by their limbs and made to remain standing for hours at a time, deprived of sleep, held in solitary confinement in tiny cells, and subjected to cold temperatures for long periods while interrogators sought to obtain \u201cconfessions\u201d from them. The authorities took no steps to investigate their allegations or bring the perpetrators to justice.\nIn November, following its review of Qatar's implementation of the UN Convention against Torture, the UN Committee against Torture urged the government to ensure that the fundamental safeguards required by the Convention were applied in practice to all persons deprived of their liberty, including by ensuring that complaints of abuse were promptly and impartially examined and that detainees could challenge the legality of their detention or treatment.\nDiscrimination and violence against women\nWomen continued to face discrimination in law and practice and were inadequately protected against violence within the family. In particular, family law discriminated against women, making it much easier for men to seek divorce compared to women, and placing women at a severe economic disadvantage if they sought divorce or if their husbands left them.\nAt least one death sentence was imposed, on a Sri Lankan man convicted of murder; no executions were reported. Prisoners on death row included at least six men sentenced to death in 2001 for participating in a 1996 plot to overthrow the government.\nAmnesty International delegates visited Qatar in October.\nQatar: Briefing to the United Nations Committee against Torture (MDE 22/001/2012)\nQatar should take steps to end use of torture and other ill-treatment (MDE 22/003/2012)",

        "raw_content": "Look back financials... whaatt?\nLook back financials are a big deal when it comes to the FASB 842 standard.\nBut... they can be confusing.\nHere's the deal: The original ASC 842 standard required companies to produce two years of \u201clook back\u201d financials with the new standard applied.\nThis gave investors the ability to compare performance in the first reporting period (after the new standard) with past performance.\nFor public companies with a fiscal year beginning January 1, the new standard goes into effect on January 1, 2019.\nOn that date, those public companies will have to hand over comparative financials for 2017 AND 2018.\nThe problem is, many organizations didn't have the technology or process in place to report under the new standards at the beginning of 2017. And that meant completing the comparative financial statements was a huge pain in the you-know-what.\nThere's good news, though.\nFASB provided relief from this by offering companies the option to SKIP the comparative reporting requirements. High five.\nThe alternative is to \u201crecognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings\u201d at their adoption date rather than on Jan. 1, 2017.\nThe short version is that the look-back financials are no longer required.\nThe impact on lessees\nIf you were worried about comparative reporting, the new transition option is a relief.\nBut it doesn't change the considerable burden created by the new standards.\nCompanies will still need to go through the arduous process of capturing 55 data elements for real estate and equipment leases. This information is vitally necessary for lease classification under the new guidelines.\nAnd you'll need to consider your lease approval processes, policies, and controls for in-house and external resources involved in the lease lifecycle.\nCompliance isn\u2019t a one-time event.\nYour team will need to understand how to integrate the new standards into your reporting.\nThe impact on investors\nWhile you might think you're the only one having to deal with the after effects of the new FASB 842 mandate... you couldn't be farther from the truth.\nInvestors have a stake in the game, too.\nYou see, the goal of the new standards was to increase transparency and give investors a more accurate view of a company\u2019s financial obligations.\nThe retrospective reporting method was initially included in ASC 842 in order to help investors discern the source and impacts of the changes in lease liabilities before the transition date.\nThanks to the changes in lookback reporting, most investors will no longer have the ability to look at ASC 840 and ASC 842 reports side by side.\nThey'll instead only see a jump in the lease assets and liabilities. There won't be context to understand whether the corporation changed its approach to leasing before the transition.\nInvestors have two choices:\nMake decisions without this important data\nAcquire the data and prepare the reports themselves\nThe first approach is faster... yet less accurate. The second approach is manual & time consuming... yet gives you the answers you're looking for.\nConclusion: Understand the truth about FASB 842\nWhile the new transition under FASB 852 is a significant burden lifted from leesees still not adequately prepared for implementation, it's less than welcome new for investors... they'll have less insight than ever before into how leasing impacts a company's financial health.\nThe lesson for both groups - in public and private companies alike - is to take it seriously.\nIf you think FASB 842 implementation is no big deal - or that you've got plenty of time to knock it out - you're dead wrong.\nThe truth is, not taking the time to understand exactly what the standards mean for your company and your investors is a fool's errand.\nYou're sure to fail... and the consequences are not pretty.\nThat's how long the project plan for FASB 842 implementation will take you.\nIt's ride or die time for public companies. And private companies would do well to get busy with implementation now.\nWe can help with that ticking clock.\nOur lease management software is designed to help you execute FASB 842 in the least amount of time, effort and expense.\nSchedule a demo to see it now!",

They\u2019ve got an enormous backyard filled with fruit trees, roses, orange crocosmia, and a few other plants that are half-buried under the weeds. Because they\u2019re both going to school and working, whatever they do has got to be affordable and not terribly time-consuming.\nI suggested that they limit themselves to a few plants that were easy to grow and bloomed over a long period of time, and plant those in mass quantities. Easy yellow plants might include lady\u2019s mantle and \u2018Moonshine\u2019 yarrow, and, for contrast, purple catmint and \u2018Johnson\u2019s Blue\u2019 true geraniums. All four of these plants are so prolific that Janis and Scott might have friends who would be willing to divide their own plants and share the extras.

        "raw_content": "November 29th is World Solidarity for the Rights and Freedom of the Palestinians\nBy: Leila Diab/Arab America Ambassador Blogger\nIn 1977, the General Assembly called for the annual observance of 29 November as the International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People (resolution 32/40 B). On that day, November 29,1947, the Assembly adopted the resolution on the partition of Palestine (resolution 181 (II))\n\u201cThe decades-long Palestinian struggle for self-determination, independence, and a life of dignity faces numerous obstacles, including continued military occupation of Palestinian territory; ongoing violence and incitement; continued settlement construction and expansion; deep uncertainties about the peace process; and deteriorating humanitarian and economic conditions, particularly in Gaza.\u201d\n\u2013-United Nations Secretary-General Ant\u00f3nio Guterres\nNovember 29, a United Nations\u2019 decades\u2019 old declaration proclaimed due recognition and respect for the solidarity rights and freedoms of Palestinians. However, after years of debilitating unresolved actions, it has had brazen and insecure consequences only to add to the flames of human suffering and despair of Palestinian life. Albeit, in this day and age in the 21st century, notwithstanding, the unending level of all undeclared and declared wars by Israel against innocent human beings, especially the defenseless Palestinians, it is a day of solidarity as the world community extends their mutual voices, moral actions of support, hope, and hands of peace to resolve the dire hardships of famine, medical care, and family life of women, men, and children.\nInternational Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People 29 November\nThe International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People is observed by the United Nations on or around 29 November each year, in accordance with General Assembly mandates contained in resolutions 32/40 B of 2 December 1977, 34/65 D of 12 December 1979, and subsequent resolutions adopted under agenda item.\nWith massive economic, social, and civil society falling prey to human and property destruction in 90 percent of regions of the world, the international day of solidarity with the Palestinian people is a time to commemorate their courage and steadfast resistance to despotic, racist and totalitarian regimes.\nResistance? Palestinians today and every day of the year continue to stand up and use nonviolent protests against the Israeli military government occupation of their homeland, Palestine, with no evidence of their right to return home. World leaders and the United Nations assembly is encouraged now to exercise and implement all UN principals to restore universal human rights. And many people in this world of conscience ask, isn\u2019t that how world peace and justice prevail?\nThis November 29th is a time for the world community to be a powerful beacon of human healing and save humanity with peace and justice long overdue. This powerful spotlight on the United Nations mission in the world needs to vehemently ostracize and hold accountable the country of Israel and other countries who have exacerbated their use of targeted drone killings of their leaders with weapons of mass destruction and the civilian population, the professional medical doctors and care workers who try to heal the wounded, and save the lives of Palestinians who want equal justice and freedom of democracy to survive a better future for their children and family.\nLet November 29th not only be a day of solidarity with the Palestinian people but a day in which the world community, world leaders and the United Nations declare and usher in the Palestinians right to justice and freedom.\nHuman rights activists, people of world conscientiousness praise and commemorate with honor and pride all the Palestinian leaders and martyrs whose courageous struggles and sacrifices with their hearts, intellect, and souls to return home to save the lives of the future of their families. November 29th is a day that many people salute, realize and hope with deep conviction that it\u2019s time to end the suffering of Palestinians as a precursor to ending all human suffering in this world.\nLet us all echo our voices and stand in faithful enduring solidary with Palestinians on the road to their preservation of life celebrations and recognition of their decades\u2019 long cultural heritage and right to exist. Palestinians will never forget their homeland and will never disappear.",

        "raw_content": "\u2018Washington-Loving High School\u2019 Proposed As New Name for Washington-Lee\nWashington-Lee High School could soon be renamed to honor Mildred and Richard Loving, the Virginia couple who successfully challenged the state\u2019s ban on interracial marriages before the Supreme Court.\nA committee tasked with suggesting a new name for the school voted on Thursday (Nov. 29) to recommend \u201cWashington-Loving\u201d as its new moniker, according to School Board spokeswoman Linda Erdos. She added that the committee\u2019s second choice was \u201cWashington-Liberty High School\u201d in passing along recommendations to the Board.\nThe 23-member group began its work in September, after the Board voted in June to strip Confederate general Robert E. Lee\u2019s name from the building due to his legacy of fighting to preserve slavery. Board members will now have the final say on a new name for the school, which they\u2019re hoping to have in place in time for the 2019-2020 school year.\nThe renaming effort has been a controversial one throughout the community, with three W-L students suing the school to block the name change, arguing that the Board didn\u2019t follow its own procedures in kicking off the renaming. The Board vigorously denies those charges, and a hearing in that case is set in Arlington Circuit Court later this month.\nOther disgruntled alumni also backed Audrey Clement\u2019s unsuccessful School Board campaign this fall in a bid to register their displeasure with the name change.\nNevertheless, the Board is set to debate the matter for the first time at its Dec. 20 meeting, Erdos said. In an email to the school\u2019s staff that Erdos provided to ARLnow, W-L Principal Gregg Robertson expressed confidence that the \u201cWashington-Loving\u201d option would be the ideal option for the Board to consider.\nChloe Slater, a junior at Washington-Lee who sat on the committee, agreed that \u201cWashington-Loving\u201d provides a \u201cclear representation\u201d of the school\u2019s values. As the child of an interracial couple herself, Slater says the Lovings\u2019 court battle represents an inspiring example of \u201chow everyday people can accomplish great things.\u201d\n\u201cI just really enjoy how we can turn a name with so many negative connotations into something positive,\u201d Slater told ARLnow.\nThe Lovings, who have both since died, hailed from Caroline County, just south of Fredericksburg. The couple married in D.C. in 1958, but were subsequently convicted under a Virginia law banning interracial couples from returning to the state. The Lovings challenged that sentence in court, and the Supreme Court ultimately issued a unanimous decision in their favor in 1967, in effect striking down all laws banning interracial marriage across the county. The case was also the subject of the film \u201cLoving\u201d in 2016.\nThe Board had originally hoped to vote on a new name for W-L before year\u2019s end. However, Erdos said it\u2019s currently planning to do so at its Jan. 10 meeting.\nArlington Public Schools, School Board, Washington-Liberty",

Main St. Georgetown, KY 40324\nRobert Clark Artist Gallery\nThoroughbred Racehorse Artist, Robert Clark, is pleased to announce the grand opening of his new gallery located at 137 E. Main St. Georgetown, KY. The gallery will showcase Robert\u2019s equestrian and racing artwork and host workshops in an upscale, fine art environment. Coinciding with the gallery opening is the release of the second edition of A Brush With Greatness, a book collaboration between Robert Clark and author Edward L. Bowen. This beautiful coffee table book features paintings of 79 grade 1 stakes winners, each portrayed in Robert Clark\u2019s meticulous, photo-realist style. To complement the paintings, the owners, breeders, or trainers of each horse have provided a personal quote that gives the reader a glimpse into each horse\u2019s history. During 2017, Mr. Clark is donating 10% of all proceeds from art and book sales to the Grayson-Jockey Club Research Foundation. So far, the campaign has raised $10,000 to fund research initiatives that help horses of all breeds to live healthier lives.\nWith paintings so life-like that the viewer can literally feel the excitement of race day, Robert has earned a position as one of the thoroughbred industry\u2019s most respected artists. At the easel, Robert focuses on the skillful execution of paintings that capture the spirit and determination of these world class equine athletes. A lifetime of dedication to honing his craft has produced a body of work that memorializes the beauty and passion of these horses.\nWhile it was Robert\u2019s grades that earned him a Wilken\u2019s Scholarship to the University of the South (Sewanee), it was his brush that earned him an art scholarship. He went from being a self-taught youth, to an academically trained professional artist. Today, Robert lives and works in the heart of the Bluegrass, where each day he is surrounded by his favorite subject matter: horses.\nRobert is looking forward to being an active member of Georgetown\u2019s vibrant art community. As both an artist and a businessman, he is committed to collaborating with local business and community groups to enrich the cultural experience of Georgetown residents and visitors. Please stop by the gallery during the Festival of the Horse.\nClick here to see where Robert's gallery is within the Kentucky horse country!",

        "title": "When it comes to language, it's all squishy tech",
        "raw_content": "COMPUTE! ISSUE 131 / JULY 1991 / PAGE 76\nWhen it comes to language, it's all squishy tech. (multimedia hardware, software) (column)\nI recently attended a seminar on the future of computing at a software conference, and no one on the panel was willing to define the term multimedia. As with other squishy phrases (user-friendly, ergonomically designed, all natural), most of us have a general idea of what we're talking about when we use the terms--but don't ask us to be too precise. When the phrase desktop publishing was introduced in 1984, it was squishy. But as actual products flooded the market, we were able to separate the practical uses from the industry hype.\nIn the case of multimedia, the confusion is compounded by the fact that it isn't a market or a single application, but a group of six related technologies that have become affordable at the same time.\nThree of these six technologies are extensions of past PC advances--high-resolution graphics (VGA or better), an affordable device for realistic sound (the Sound Blaster and similar sound cards), and a standard graphical user interface (Windows 3.0). The three other technologies are relatively new to the PC world--faster and less expensive CD-ROM players, full-motion video, and sophisticated, yet easy-to-use, authoring systems for multimedia applications.\nJoined together, these six technologies form the foundation for what we know as multimedia. You don't even need all six to qualify--just about any combination of three or more will do. Let's take a brief look at these technologies and see how each has evolved.\nOver the last few years. VGA has become the de facto video-card standard, especially its two high-resolution modes--320 X 200 with 256 colors, and 640 X 480 with 16 colors. In addition, Windows makes it easy for software companies to support even higher-resolution modes. A card manufacturer can write a single driver that will work with any present or future Windoews program. This allows multimedia developers to use photographic-quality images in their applications and maintain a high degree of compatibility over the various high-resolution modes. We've come a long way on our journey from four-color CGA to the 16.7 million colors of the new 24-bit cards.\nSound has undergone an equally dramatic transformation. While many programs still rely on simple PC beeps, Microsoft has established a sound-card standard with Multimedia Windows, which allows any Windows application to play real sounds through your PC. As with video cards, sound-card manufacturers need to write only one driver in order to support all Windows programs, and software developers only have to deal with a single sound-card standard.\nAll of these high-resolution images and real sounds take up a lot of disk space--too much even for a hard drive. Enter CD-ROM, which can store as much as 650 megabytes on a disc. While the current crop of CD-ROM players are faster than ever, Microsoft has set an even higher standard (150K per second) for Multimedia Windows. These units are able to maintain their higher speeds by using a buffer to hold frequently real information. A year ago, CD-ROM players were $800-$1,000. Today, you can buy them for as little as $400.\nThe main reason Microsoft insisted that CD-ROM players be so fast is full-motion video. With a speedy CD-ROM player, a PC can spool images off of a CD-ROM disc fast enough to display a video sequence in a small window without any flicker (or a video in a full-screen window with only a little flicker). A multimedia program could display a person in a small window explaining the action in another window. As long as the windows aren't too large, a 150K per second CD-ROM player can handle them. All-taking, all-moving pictures (and animation) may soon be appearing on a PC near you.\nMultimedia applications are only as good as the development tools that create them. Fortunately, we're seeing a bumper crop of reasonably priced authoring systems (most under Windows) that are both powerful and easy to use. The majority of these programs use the HyperCard model, allowing you to associate visual objects with programming code and literally move those objects into lace with your mouse.\nAt this time, it looks as though the common platform for all of these technologies will be Multimedia Windows. With Multimedia Windows, you can link various applications together. For example, you could have one program grab an animation from a CD-ROM disc so that a second program could use it in a multimedia presentation. At the same time, a third program could grab the CD-ROM's MIDI data so that a fourth program (in this case, MIDI sequence program) could feed the musical data to a sound card and a MIDI synthesizer.\nBecause Multimedia Windows has the necessary programming hooks and standards for these technologies, it will ultimately be the means for making multimedia less squishy. Look for a steady stream of products over the next twelve months that will define what multimedia is and what it will become in the future.",

        "raw_content": "Written By: Betty MacDonald\nNarrated By: Heather Henderson\nPublisher: Post Hypnotic Press\n\"The Egg and I\" took first America by storm in 1945, selling over 1,000,000 within ten months of it's original publication. Betty MacDonald's first book about her adventures as a young wife on a chicken farm on the Olympic Peninsula in Washington state was a breath of fresh air to a world that, in the wake of WWII, sorely needed it. Betty lived with her first husband near Chimacum, Washington - a newlywed doing her best to adjust to and help operate their small chicken farm, from 1927 to 1931. MacDonald was a keen observer of the people around her, and she calls a spade a spade, \"and there were a plenty of spades.\"\nThe Egg and I was adapted for stage, radio and screen, with the movie version starring Claudette Colbert and Fred MacMurray. The movie version also introduced the world to Ma and Pa Kettle, the eccentric country bumpkins portrayed by the inimitable Marjorie Main and Percy Kilbride, who were so popular that a string of spin-off movies was made about their adventures. Betty MacDonald wrote three other memoirs, as well as the still popular Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle series for children, and is recognized by many as an important America humorist. In her MA thesis, The Egg and Us: Contextualization and Historicization (2014), Samantha Hoekstra writes:\n\"Some scholars credit MacDonald with having inspired Shirley Jackson, Erma Bombeck, and other purveyors of domestic humor, but perhaps the most appropriate inheritor of the MacDonald tradition is the contemporary writer David Sedaris. ... One of the most significant similarities is that the lack of conventionality in both families is presented as normal and worthy of respect.

        "raw_content": "Directory / COMICS / Buckets (AMS)\nBuckets (AMS)\nThis comic strip isn\u2019t a parody of family life. Parodies are filled with hearts and rainbows or enraged tirades and dramatic confrontation. The Buckets, though? Nope. Real life, baby. It\u2019s funny because it\u2019s on a page and not in your house at the moment. Next week, when it\u2019s happening to you, you\u2019ll thank us for reminding you that it\u2019s supposed to be funny.\nGreg Cravens looks in the mirror and see not himself, but all of us. And then he draws up the silly, grand, goofy, thrilling, utterly human things we do and calls it The Buckets.\nAuthor: Greg Cravens\nreg Cravens is the author of the comic strips The Buckets and Hubris. His first comic, The Buckets, offers a realistic snapshot of modern family life: the worries, the mayhem and the often-overlooked rewards. \u201cThe Buckets is for anyone baffled by human behavior and the most exquisite comic strip for those willing to see their behavior objectively,\u201d says Cravens. In 2012, Cravens launched his newest comic strip, Hubris. It is the story of people who enjoy their weekends more than their jobs --wandering in and out of The Outdoor Galore Store, the woods, the skate park, the river and trouble. They'll risk their lives and limbs to entertain the reader by entertaining themselves. \u201cHubris takes us outside to play, and we all need that sorely,\u201d says Cravens. \u201cI craft the strips with meaning behind the fun.\u201d History Originally from Tennessee, Cravens graduated from Memphis State University. He began as the artist on The Buckets (originally created by Scott Stantis) in 2001, just after the strip's 10th anniversary. In 2006, Cravens completely took the reins for the strip. The transition was smoothed by the fact that Cravens began the strip as a married cartoonist, father to two young boys, and owner of a mortgage and a dog -- just as Stantis had been 10 years earlier. Cravens also creates large, unwieldy piles of advertising cartoons. He continues to author both his comic strips in Memphis, surrounded by his friends and family.",

        "raw_content": "Labor deal is near, Stern says\nHOUSTON -- Calling a potential work stoppage in the NBA \"very dangerous, and something we very much want to avoid,\" commissioner David Stern said last night that talks between the players' association and team owners will result in a new collective bargaining agreement, possibly as soon as next week.\nThere have been reports that the owners would lock out the players after the end of the season, with a rookie salary cap and increased merchandising revenue for players key issues. But Stern said that around-the-clock negotiations over the past three days make such a scenario improbable.\n\"Intensive negotiations are continuing in New York,\" Stern said, reading from a statement issued by both sides. \"We are pleased to report that substantial progress is being made and we are optimistic that a new collective bargaining agreement will be reached soon. . . . further negotiations are necessary until an agreement can be reached.\"\nAnd that agreement could be announced at the Board of Governors meeting Tuesday in New York.\n\"We wouldn't have the meeting unless we thought there would be a deal to close out,\" Stern said. \"There's a collective sense of urgency from our membership, our ownership and our fans.\"\nWhile progress is apparently being made, both sides have agreed that the existing no-lockout, no-strike agreement, which was reached before the season and is due to expire, will continue \"on a short-term basis.\" So will the moratorium on renegotiating contracts.\nThe two sides seemed far apart, but when word of a possible lockout surfaced earlier this week, the negotiations intensified.\n\"You need a crisis or a boiling point to get the parties focused,\" Stern said. \"They've been meeting for the last two or three days. We've had a very productive series of negotiating sessions.\"\nAsked whether the NBA has learned lessons from work stoppages in baseball and hockey that prompted a backlash from fans, Stern said: \"We learned it is in our best interest to keep our season going uninterrupted. Fans tune in to read about exploits; they are not interested in reading about commissioners and labor [issues].\n\"It is our goal to continue on an uninterrupted basis to bring this extraordinary product to our fans around the world.\"\nStern said that he was happy with the worldwide popularity of the playoffs, which have increased television ratings from a year ago.\n\"We think the event defines the teams,\" Stern said, \"rather than the markets defining the event.\"",

Ellen Frances Macnee Coggeshall, 86 Barnstable Village \u2013 Ellen Frances Macnee Coggeshall, 86, a long-time resident of Rendezvous Lane, Barnstable village, died soon after dawn on Jan. 6, 2009, \u201cTwelfth Day\u201d, Epiphany, at Cape Cod Hospital. The previous evening, after a full day of festive activities and walking the lane with her husband, Tim, to view the harbor, she suffered a massive stroke. At the hospital, her husband and three of their four daughters kept vigil through the night. They held her hands as she slipped silently away. Mrs. Coggeshall, known as \u201cLuby\u201d, first came to Barnstable in the summer of 1939, when she was16, to visit her special friend, Carol Coggeshall [Segar]. Having found the damsel incredibly attractive, Carol\u2019s older brother, Tim, helped engineer the visit. Luby lingered most of the summer before returning home to New Canaan, Ct. She then wended her way back to Barnstable each successive summer. At New Canaan, she graduated from Low-Heywood School, and then studied physical therapy at Bouve School in Boston [affiliated with Simmons and Tufts], where she earned her degree. In 1943 she became engaged to Tim Coggeshall just before he, a newly commissioned Ensign, left to join the U.S.S. Denver and the War in the South Pacific. A year and a half later his second ship, a Destroyer, returned briefly to California for repairs and he was granted a week\u2019s leave to be married in Barnstable. The night before the wedding, the Hurricane of 1944 struck the Cape hard. Neighbors rallied and removed the trees that decorated the house so that the wedding, despite lack of electricity, could proceed at St. Mary\u2019s Church. After the War, Luby and Tim had four daughters: Ellen Breck Coggeshall of Barnstable; Nan Coggeshall Jeffrey of Prince Edward Island, Canada; Melora Knight Coggeshall of Bar Mills, Maine; and Caroline Esther Coggeshall of Boston. They have 11 grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. From 1947 to 1987 Luby helped her husband preside over dormitories at Noble & Greenough School in Dedham, where he taught English and history to several generations of boys and, later, girls. In 1961-2, her family of six spent a year at Oakham School in Rutland, England, sharing Tim\u2019s Fulbright Teacher Exchange year, with full immersion in the English culture. In Dedham Luby served in the Family Service organization and with friends instituted and staffed a library at the public Mendell School in Roxbury. After Nobles went co-educational in 1974, she supervised the girls\u2019 dormitory. For 40 summers Luby organized the \u201cDauntless\u201d Cruises that Tim offered, to boys and girls, week-long adventures, sailing cruises along the coast of New England on his sloop \u201cDauntless\u201d, based at the Crosby Yard in Osterville. For several years Luby served as First Mate but then decided she preferred to tend her flower garden at her cottage that Tim had built himself during the course of three summers after the War. For the rest of her life, Luby\u2019s principal focus was on her own family. She spent happy hours in her flower, vegetable, and herb gardens. She loved to walk with family and friends around the village and along the town\u2019s conservation trails. She would bake her bread, listen to Bach, play tennis, and sail with Tim in his Beetle Cat. She loved to travel, especially to Umbria in Italy and the Isle of Mull in Scotland. She was happiest when her home was filled with grandchildren. She was a docent at the village Historical Society. For 60 years she attended Symphony in Boston. She inherited a love of opera from her Austrian grandmother who sang opera in Europe. Throughout her life she played her piano, even giving lessons to a few youngsters. Last spring her family honored her with the construction of a post-and-beam, \u201cLuby\u2019s Barn\u201d, which now gives shelter to family boats and possessions. Most especially, her family celebrates her authenticity, her enthusiasm and good cheer, her vivid smile and infectious bright laughter. A celebration of her life will be held at St. Mary\u2019s Church in Barnstable in late May. Meanwhile her friends may honor her memory by making donations to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, Donor Services, PO Box 4072, Pittsfield, MA 01202. Her daughter Melora is undergoing successful treatment for Chronic Leukemia. Roland J. Cordeiro, 90 Braintree \u2014 Roland J.

        "raw_content": "https://www.barrons.com/articles/how-to-outsmart-a-dimming-outlook-for-profits-51549070391\nHow to Outsmart a Dimming Outlook for Profits\nThe Oscars aren\u2019t for another few weeks, but Wall Street\u2019s version of a red-carpet event played out this past week. Live bloggers and trading-floor telecasters thrilled to the latest earnings reports from aging star Apple , naughty but bankable Facebook , and supernova Amazon.com .\nAgainst that glitz, it\u2019s not easy for an adhesive maker to stand out. Yet 3M (ticker: MMM), which last week reported fourth-quarter results that exceeded analysts\u2019 estimates, bears watching. It offers a more down-to-earth illustration of how earnings growth is sharply slowing among large U.S. companies amid a broader economic malaise.\n3M\u2019s earnings per share grew 12% last year, or 14% adjusted for one-time items, on modest revenue gains spread across all of its product categories and regions. For 2019, the company is now calling for growth to slow to a low-single-digit rate. Investors appeared relieved that the new guidance wasn\u2019t worse; the consensus earnings estimate for 2019 has been tumbling since fall, after all. Shares trade at 19 times this year\u2019s earnings, suggesting that 3M investors expect the slowdown to pass quickly.\nThey may be proved right. And the broader outlook for company earnings this year is a little better than 3M\u2019s\u2014but not nearly as favorable as it was even a few months ago.\nAs recently as the end of September, Wall Street analysts had been predicting 10% growth in S&P 500 earnings in 2019. Today, the latest 2019 consensus estimate is just under 6%, compared with a hefty 21% in 2018. Analysts expect S&P 500 component earnings to total $170.37, compared with an estimated $161.14 for 2018.\nFor the first quarter of 2019, the outlook is dismal. This past week, the consensus estimate for first-quarter earnings growth turned negative, at nearly minus 1%, due in part to the impact of the government\u2019s shutdown and a slip in energy profits.\nThere is scattered talk of an earnings recession looming. It\u2019s too early to predict one of those, but not too early to prepare for one. We\u2019ll look at five well-positioned companies in a bit.\n\u201cBe wary of the bounceback stocks have seen since December,\u201d says Richard Bernstein, a former chief investment strategist at Merrill Lynch who today manages $9 billion out of his own advisory firm. \u201cWe\u2019re later in the cycle, and things are naturally starting to slow down.\u201d\nThe S&P 500 had its best January in 30 years, gaining 7.9%.\nMost companies now reporting fourth-quarter results have been beating earnings estimates, but that happens pretty much every quarter nowadays, and the size of upside surprises has been smaller than usual. It\u2019s not difficult to imagine that when all the results are in, upside surprises will push fourth-quarter growth to 13% or 14%. Tax cuts will account for almost seven percentage points of that.\nBernstein is concerned that a number of companies have used debt to buy back stock and goose growth. But he doesn\u2019t expect an earnings recession this year, and he predicts that the next economic downturn will be milder than what investors expect, because companies have been cautious about expansion. \u201cYou should be moderately overweight stocks, but not pedal-to-the-metal,\u201d Bernstein says. \u201cThe No. 1 theme is earnings quality and stability.\u201d\nValuations aren\u2019t especially stretched. The S&P 500 trades at 16 times projected 2019 earnings, and the backdrop for stocks is flattering. The 10-year Treasury yields 2.7%, less than half its average of the past half-century. The Federal Reserve has suggested that it might be done raising interest rates for now, given some wobbly economic signals.\nWhen rates were near zero, investors used the acronym TINA to describe the sentiment that \u201cthere is no alternative\u201d to stocks. Today, it\u2019s more like TASS\u2014the alternatives still stink.\nThat bodes well for positive stock returns this year, although there\u2019s a flip side: If investors cried uncle on rate increases while rates were still historically low, it doesn\u2019t say much for their confidence in economic growth. The Fed expects U.S. gross domestic product to grow by just 2.3% this year, versus an estimated 3% in 2018. Longer term, the Fed is predicting 1.9% growth. Population growth has slowed, and productivity gains from technology have shrunk.\nOne risk for stock investors is that analysts tend to guess too high about earnings for distant quarters, and then over time bring their numbers down to levels that can be beat. That raises the possibility that the ugly first-quarter projection is more reliable than the calls for growth to rebound later in the year. If so, even factoring in upside surprises, growth could be barely positive this year.\nBut there are a few credible reasons to think earnings growth might indeed pick up as the year goes on. One is that the recent government shutdown, which has ended for the moment, sapped an estimated $11 billion from the economy, but only $3 billion of that is lost for good, according to the Congressional Budget Office. When economists at Wall Street banks recently brought down their first-quarter GDP estimates, some also nudged their second-quarter forecasts higher.\nOil prices are another significant factor. The largest percentage declines in first-quarter earnings estimates are found in the energy sector and are owed to a slide in Texas crude oil to $45 a barrel at the end of 2018 from more than $75 in early October. The price has been rebounding so far this year, to a recent $55, and some energy companies can adjust operations to cut costs, so the hit to future quarters might not be quite as bad. That\u2019s especially true of the fourth quarter of 2019, because it will face relatively easy comparisons with the fourth quarter of 2018, when growth had already begun to sag.\nThere\u2019s another hopeful sign, and it comes from focusing on companies that are pulling the market\u2019s first-quarter growth estimate down the most.\nSome of these companies aren\u2019t exactly wrecks. Apple (AAPL) is expected to be the greatest drag, because customers have been slow to upgrade to its latest phones, but services and accessories are growing nicely, and as long as Apple and Samsung Electronics (005930.Korea) dominate the pricey end of the handset market, growth will come around. Wall Street predicts a return to earnings gains in the quarter ending in December 2019, when Apple will have new phones on sale.\nAlphabet (GOOGL) is the second-biggest projected drag. It is growing revenues like a youngster, but spending has been rising even faster. Overall earnings growth should resume sometime in 2019; investors will learn more when the company reports fourth-quarter results on Feb. 4. On the other hand, No. 3 and No. 4 are Micron Technology (MU) and Western Digital (WDC), which are stuck in a nastier downturn in semiconductors that might not abate right away.\nFor stockpickers, there is statistical comfort to be found in the difference between the weighted earnings growth estimate for S&P 500 companies for the first quarter, which is slightly negative, and the median estimate, which is about 4%. It suggests that beyond a handful of titanic profit declines, the near-term outlook for typical companies isn\u2019t so gloomy.\nInvestors worried about a slowdown might want to favor companies whose growth isn\u2019t overly tied to the economy. Traditionally, that has meant defensive groups like food, drugs, and electric utilities, but grocery spending has shifted toward fresh and away from packaged food, drugmakers are facing pricing pressures, and electricity demand isn\u2019t growing as it used to.\nBetter to look for what are sometimes called secular, or idiosyncratic, growers: companies benefiting from powerful long-term trends, and not just a sweet spot in the business cycle. Some have expensive shares, but others look affordable.\nHere are five to consider:\nStryker (SYK) passed a rigorous stress test when its revenues and profits kept growing right through the global economic downturn of a decade ago. The company is known for its replacement hips and knees, but it has other orthopaedic products for spines, broken bones, and more, and a large portfolio of medical and surgical equipment, including stretchers, scopes, and drills. \u201cDoctors and surgeons don\u2019t like changing the orthopaedic suppliers they deal with because they don\u2019t want to have to relearn procedures,\u201d says Eric Schoenstein, co-manager of the Jensen Quality Growth fund (JENSX), with $6.5 billion in assets spread among just 27 stocks. That keeps customer retention high.\nA new robotic-surgery system called Mako gives Stryker an edge over the competition, Schoenstein says. Earnings per share are seen rising 11% this year. Shares trade at 22 times forward earnings estimates. That\u2019s about what investors are paying for defensive Colgate-Palmolive (CL), whose earnings are expected to decline slightly this year.\nSchoenstein also likes Microsoft (MSFT), which beat on earnings Thursday but missed on revenue, both by tiny amounts. Given comments by Intel (INC) and others about a slow patch for sales to cloud customers, investors were concerned about growth for Microsoft\u2019s Azure cloud platform. It matched last quarter\u2019s 76% gain from a year ago.\nMicrosoft isn\u2019t immune to an economic downturn, but two factors help dampen its exposure to one, Schoenstein says. One is that its customers these days are largely deep-pocketed enterprises rather than consumers. Another is that cloud investments can help companies save money. In response to the earnings report, Wedbush Securities analyst Daniel Ives wrote in a note to investors that despite the lack of a \u201cclean beat,\u201d the outlook for the March quarter was positive, and trends in major products suggest that Microsoft is only midway through a growth renaissance. Shares sell for 22 times forward earnings, and Wall Street expects low- to midteens earnings growth rates in coming years.\nPatrick Kelly, co-manager of the Alger Spectra fund (SPECX), favors Microsoft, too, and has high weightings in tech and health care. He also likes an auto supplier that sells for 14 times forward earnings: Aptiv (APTV). It makes electrical systems and advanced safety systems that give it excellent exposure to the so-called Auto 2.0 shift toward more automation in cars, even though it has Auto 1.0 roots. The company was part of the ill-fated Delphi spinoff from General Motors (GM) in 1999, but a little over a year ago, Delphi spun off its traditional engine components and gave itself a jazzy new name. The good thing about Aptiv is that some of the same technologies that will one day automate cars are already in fierce demand in the form of lane-detection and collision-avoidance systems, cruise control that speeds up or down to keep up with traffic, and more.\nOne hitch is that the company isn\u2019t entirely detached from the business cycle. A near-term downturn in car demand is expected to slow earnings growth to low-single digits this year before a return to double-digit growth rates in the years ahead. That has led to a cyclical-versus-secular debate among investors. Shares have come down by more than 20% since last summer. Despite near-term automotive weakness, Aptiv looks capable of growing much faster than the industry over the long term, Kelly says.\nStrategists at Goldman Sachs recently recommended idiosyncratic growth stocks for protection against Brexit, a U.S.-China trade showdown, and other policy hobgoblins. Its list includes well-known world beaters like Amazon.com (AMZN) and expensive up-and-comers like retailer Five Below (FIVE), at 39 times earnings.\nOne recommendation for the thrifty is Spirit Airlines (SAVE), at nine times earnings. It was a leader in selling stripped-down flights while charging for minor pleasantries like advanced seat assignment, an approach it says allows it to beat competitor fares by 35%.\nLegacy carriers have responded with \u201cunbundled\u201d flights. Spirit, under new management, is working to improve its perception with passengers, promoting its relatively new planes and high on-time rates. Discounted bundles of perks, like its \u201cthrills combo\u201d\u2014a checked bag, seat selection, priority boarding, one free flight modification, and double rewards miles\u2014are boosting nonticket revenue.\nAs an airline, Spirit is subject to fuel-price swings, but as a relatively small player, it can cherry-pick routes. Revenues are growing at a double-digit pace. The company reports fourth-quarter earnings on Wednesday. Wall Street predicts a 32% increase for all of 2018, followed by a 48% earnings gain this year.\nFor investors who prefer traditional staples, look to the beer aisle\u2014the cans, not the stuff inside them. Mega-brewers like Anheuser-Busch InBev (BUD), whose name is a mash-up of beer makers on three continents, are caught between the carb-consciousness of younger drinkers and the proliferation of craft brews.\nCans, on the other hand, are in fierce demand, not only from craft beer but also from flavored and spiked seltzers and energy drinks. U.S. volumes for Diet Coke rose last year for the first time in years, and marketers aren\u2019t quite sure whether it was the new flavors, like \u201czesty blood orange,\u201d or a shift to skinnier cans. Even wine makers have been experimenting with cans, which are more portable than glass and more environmentally friendly than plastic.\nAll of this is good news for Ball (BLL), which is still associated with glass jars for homemade sauce, even though it got out of glass in the 1990s and today is mostly focused on cans. Shares trade at a staple-like 20 times forward earnings, but earnings are expected to grow an uncanny 19% this year and 15% next year.\nSo don\u2019t sweat the earnings recession just yet, and beware forecasts for either a dire downturn or a shift to a glorious era of runaway growth. The reality is that growth is abruptly slowing from an inflated level, but it hasn\u2019t stalled, and the bull isn\u2019t dead yet.\nCorporate earnings growth is expected to slow to a trickle this year. How to play it.\nThe Oscars aren\u2019t for another few weeks, but Wall Street\u2019s version of a red-carpet event played out this past week.",

It contains up to 6 Bacillus strains, a prebiotic and several free enzymes. More details are HERE.\nWe sell a wide range of Lactobacillus species that can be applied on the feed. While they can survive for a while at ambient temperatures, optimum shelf life only comes with refrigeration. Top dressing is easy and ensures that live organisms are present when the feed is fed. There are published reports that report a wide variety of benefits in shrimp that are fed these bacteria ranging from increased disease resistance to better growth. Used in combination with PRO4000X this is a potent and inexpensive tool for reducing the stress that your shrimp are under.\nWe are looking for clients to conduct trials with this and a few other products that we are evaluating. Unlike AquaPro F which does not require any specific storage conditions (except being kept free of moisture) these must be held in a refrigerated state at most times and you will have to top-dress your feeds with it on a daily basis. The bacteria that have the best chance of colonizing your animals intestinal tracts are the ones that are in the environment and that they already have in them. Constant feeding of certain types of bacteria will increase the chances that some of them colonize the intestinal tract for a long enough period of time and at high enough levels to effect a beneficial impact on the animals being fed. This is inexpensive to do. Ask.\nCOMING SOON! Tablets for ingestion by fish and shrimp. Living bacteria are incorporated into small tablets along with a feed attractant. These are consumed by hungry animals and they gain the benefit of ingesting large numbers of bacterial species that may colonize their guts.",

This year\u2019s new Fellows are experts in subjects ranging from feminist theory to the economic development of Africa; medieval history to Indian philosophy and face perception.\nAs part of the Department of African Studies and Anthropology at the University of Birmingham, Professor Moraes Farias works on epigraphic sources for the medieval history of West Africa and has developed new approaches to West African oral traditions and the 17th-century Timbuktu Chronicles.\nHe is one of the rare historians in Britain whose range of interests includes the early pre-colonial history of Africa. His Arabic Medieval Inscriptions from the Republic of Mali (2003) was a finalist for the Herskovits Award (2004) and won the Paul Hair Prize (2005) conferred by the USA African Studies Association together with the Association for the Preservation and Publication of African Historical Sources.\nProfessor Moraes Farias said: \u201cI am delighted by this honour. It reflects recognition of the importance of the historical study of Africa\u201d.\nThe British Academy\u2019s newest cohort of Fellows reflects the growing diversity of research in the UK. The 42 UK Fellows of the British Academy span a wide geographic range, elected from 23 institutions.\nThe proportion of women elected to the Fellowship has doubled in the last five years. This year, 38% of the new Fellows are women, exceeding the 24% share of female Professors in UK universities, according to HESA data.\nToday also marks the start of Professor Sir David Cannadine\u2019s four-year term as President of the British Academy, as he takes over from Lord (Nicholas) Stern of Brentford, who has held the post since 2013.\nNew President of the British Academy, Professor Sir David Cannadine: \u201cAs I take on the role of the thirtieth President of the British Academy, I am aware that I am the latest in a long line of succession, dating back to the Academy\u2019s foundation in 1902.\n\u201cThen as now, the times in which we live present us with many challenges. Yet we also have great opportunities to engage with them.\n\u201cAt a time when institutions are distrusted and derided, and expertise is mocked and scorned, the British Academy stands for truth, reason, evidence-based learning, intellectual distinction, academic expertise, and quality and power of mind. In a world where parochialism, nativism, nationalism, xenophobia and populism seem in too many places to be on the march, it is our job to provide light and learning and hope.\n\u201cThis is by no means an easy task, but I am looking forward to it, and eager to be getting on with it.\u201d\nThe British Academy is the UK's national body for the humanities and social sciences \u2013 the study of peoples, cultures and societies, past, present and future. We have three principal roles: as an independent Fellowship of world-leading scholars and researchers; a Funding Body that supports new research, nationally and internationally; and a Forum for debate and engagement \u2013 a voice that champions the humanities and social sciences.

        "raw_content": "Home / Cerebral Palsy / Communication and Cerebral Palsy\nSince speech development, voice production, and facial expressions can be limited in children living with cerebral palsy (CP), teaching your child how to communicate effectively may seem challenging, but it can be done with the correct training and assistance. The severity of CP varies according to each child, and some may need more help than others. The key is finding the right balance and techniques that will work for your child.\nThe sooner you can assess your child\u2019s communications needs, the better. With early intervention, a speech pathologist, occupational therapist, and other related professionals can help pinpoint the types of education and training your child needs in order to communicate more successfully. Early intervention typically starts before six years of age. Although there is no set age in which you start early intervention with your infant, experts suggest starting when they are least 1 to 2 years of age.\nEarly intervention will help you understand what factors limit your child\u2019s communication skills. For example, it\u2019s common for children with CP to have hearing or sight problems. Some children have more extensive hearing problems than other children with CP, while others may need more help with seeing. A combination of both hearing and sight problems are also typical in children with CP. Once you begin intervention, your healthcare provider will be able to determine if your child needs specialized devices in order to communicate or if cognitive and speech therapy alone will help.\nIn severe cases of CP, a child may not be able to communicate in a way that others understand. However, there are a few options available that will help your child communicate successfully with others.\nManual Strategies: Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) is defined as means to allow people with disabilities a means to communicate and express thoughts, feelings, needs, and wants. In some cases, a child with CP can benefit from manual strategies such as sign language, handheld boards that include pictures of daily living items, sign language, and body language training.\nElectronic Communication-Assisted Devices: When technology constantly changing, more and more options are opening up for people who alternative communication means. Touch-pad devices, advanced hearing aid, and tablet-based communication programs can assist your child in communicating with you. For children who have difficulty pointing, options such as infrared head pointers, scanning devices, and ACC tablet applications.\nSome parents worry that their children will never learn to speak or refuse to speak if they are given assistance via devices. However, studies suggest that utilizing AAC regularly will actually enhance and promote a child\u2019s speech potential.\nFurthermore, it\u2019s important to remember not to dwell too much on whether your child with CP can speak or not. Although every parent wants their child to communicate effectively, physicians suggest to focus on setting your child up for success by teaching them all aspects of communication available.\nYou\u2019ll eventually be able to discern which method works best for your child. Children with CP have an amazing ability to learn and pick up on things even if it\u2019s hard for them to express it. In time, with diligent training, it\u2019s possible to communicate with your child even if it\u2019s not the traditional way that you\u2019re accustomed to.",

He brought them to the land of Babylonia to the temple of his god and put the vessels in the treasury of his god.\nDan 1:3 - The king commanded Ashpenaz, who was in charge of his court officials, to choose some of the Israelites who were of royal and noble descent -\nDan 1:4 - young men in whom there was no physical defect and who were handsome, well versed in all kinds of wisdom, well educated and having keen insight, and who were capable of entering the king's royal service - and to teach them the literature and language of the Babylonians.\nDan 1:5 - So the king assigned them a daily ration from his royal delicacies and from the wine he himself drank. They were to be trained for the next three years. At the end of that time they were to enter the king's service.\nDan 1:6 - As it turned out, among these young men were some from Judah: Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah.\nDan 1:7 - But the overseer of the court officials renamed them. He gave Daniel the name Belteshazzar, Hananiah he named Shadrach, Mishael he named Meshach, and Azariah he named Abednego.\nDan 1:8 - But Daniel made up his mind that he would not defile himself with the royal delicacies or the royal wine. He therefore asked the overseer of the court officials for permission not to defile himself.\nDan 1:9 - Then God made the overseer of the court officials sympathetic to Daniel.\nDan 1:10 - But he responded to Daniel, \"I fear my master the king. He is the one who has decided your food and drink. What would happen if he saw that you looked malnourished in comparison to the other young men your age? If that happened, you would endanger my life with the king!\"\nDan 1:11 - Daniel then spoke to the warden whom the overseer of the court officials had appointed over Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah:\nDan 1:12 - \"Please test your servants for ten days by providing us with some vegetables to eat and water to drink.\nDan 1:13 - Then compare our appearance with that of the young men who are eating the royal delicacies; deal with us in light of what you see.\"\nDan 1:14 - So the warden agreed to their proposal and tested them for ten days.\nDan 1:15 - At the end of the ten days their appearance was better and their bodies were healthier than all the young men who had been eating the royal delicacies.\nDan 1:16 - So the warden removed the delicacies and the wine from their diet and gave them a diet of vegetables instead.\nDan 1:17 - Now as for these four young men, God endowed them with knowledge and skill in all sorts of literature and wisdom - and Daniel had insight into all kinds of visions and dreams.\nDan 1:18 - When the time appointed by the king arrived, the overseer of the court officials brought them into Nebuchadnezzar's presence.\nDan 1:19 - When the king spoke with them, he did not find among the entire group anyone like Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, or Azariah. So they entered the king's service.\nDan 1:20 - In every matter of wisdom and insight the king asked them about, he found them to be ten times better than any of the magicians and astrologers that were in his entire empire.\nDan 1:21 - Now Daniel lived on until the first year of Cyrus the king.",

Picture by Phil Westlake SUS-160307-213800001\nSussex Cricket are delighted to announce that left-arm paceman Tymal Mills has signed a new one-year deal at The 1st Central County Ground, Hove.\n24 year-old Mills, who signed a two-year contract with Sussex ahead of the 2015 season, has put to pen to paper on a new deal which will see him remain at Hove until at least the end of next season.\nMills, one of the most explosive fast bowlers in the country and able to clock speeds in excess of 90mph, is restricted to playing T20 cricket due to a back condition, but has excelled in the shorter format for the Sharks. His form resulted in him making his England T20 debut against Sri Lanka at the Ageas Bowl in July.\nIn 24 NatWest T20 Blast matches for the Sharks, Mills has taken 34 wickets at an average of 19.23, with his career-best T20 figures of 4 for 22 coming in the victory over Middlesex at Lord\u2019s in 2015.\nMills will concentrate on T20 cricket for the foreseeable future and is setting his sights on some of the global tournaments this winter and beyond.\nMills said of his new deal, \u201cThe club have put a lot of time and effort into me, so I\u2019m looking forward to repaying them by doing well in T20 next year. Hopefully we can build something special moving forward.\n\u201cObviously, when I first signed, I was hoping to play in all three formats but that hasn\u2019t worked out, so I\u2019m only playing T20 now and focusing on that.\n\u201cIt was a really proud moment to receive my first England cap and it was nice that the work and performances that I have put in for Sussex were recognised.\u201d\nSussex\u2019s Head Coach Mark Davis said, \u201cI am delighted that Tymal has signed a new contract with Sussex for 2017. He had a very successful T20 campaign for us this year and is a bowler of immense ability.\n\u201cHis raw pace and brilliant slower ball makes him extremely difficult to play and he is a proven match winner. I am sure the Sussex fans are looking forward to seeing him steaming down the hill at Hove next season.\u201d\nSussex skipper Luke Wright added, \u201cI\u2019m delighted Millsy has signed a new contract. He is a big part of our T20 side. It is fantastic as captain to have such pace to turn to; he has a great ability to get the top players out. From a crowd point of view, it is exciting to watch such a fast bowler flying in down the hill at Hove.\n\u201cI look forward to watching the development of him both for Sussex and hopefully England this winter and next season.\u201d",

We wish to encourage brands to use their influence for positive change and invite them to collaborate with us on projects where we can not only promote a message of peace, love and hope; but can also help our future generations. As a result, the BOB Foundation Ltd. believes that it is our responsibility to be both socially and environmentally responsible. We have teamed up with a Hawaiian based company, Human Revolution Clothing, to ensure our products are 100% Organic Cotton, GMO-free and Fair Trade where 100% of profits are donated to our BOB Certified Charities.\nQ: What is a BOB Certified Charity?\nA: A BOB Certified Charity is a legally registered charity and recognized school by the the government in which the charity is located. In order to qualify as a BOB Certified Charity, the organization must provide documentation proving its legality and have direct contact with refugee children and school.\nQ: How much money goes directly to supporting the education of children in refugee camps?\nA: BOB Foundation Ltd. donates 100% of its profits to its projects with BOB Certified Charities in aiding educational costs such as school fees, books, stationery and uniforms.\nQ: Why support children in refugee camps?\nA: The amount of children that are suffering around the world is at an all time high in human history. Due to war and political unrest, we have seen an unprecedented amount of children who have been caught up in this ugly mess. As adults make the decisions to go to war, it is the children who pay the ultimate price as they have before them a long road to recovery. At BOB Foundation Ltd., we firmly believe that education can pave the way towards a brighter future for these children. We are trying out best to ensure that they can have the best possible start given their dire situation and want to empower them as the strong individuals they are.\nQ: What is a Post-Tag?\nA: Instead of the conventional hang-tag with the T-shirts, BOB wanted to go the extra mile and give another special aspect to their pieces. We teamed up with Postcards For Peace to create a \u201chang-tag with a difference\u201d, which also acts as an actual postcard allowing customers to send a handwritten message of encouragement and hope to refugee children. An amazing way to let the children know that the world has not forgotten about them.\nQ: Why choose organic?\nA: Everything that goes into the land eventually makes its way into us! Conventional cotton farming uses some of the EPA's (Environmental Protection Agency) highest-rated toxic chemicals. These chemicals are proven to cause cancer, diabetes, infertility, illness and dis-ease. Organic farming uses natural methods that are in accordance with nature and sustaining our land. Something as simple as choosing to purchase an organic tee or tank actually has the power to change our world for the better! We want to leave this world better than we found it, for we are borrowing it from our grandchildren.\nQ: What is Organic Cotton farming?\nA: Organic cotton is grown using methods and materials that have a low impact on the environment. Organic production systems replenish and maintain soil fertility, reduce the use of toxic and persistent pesticides and fertilizers, and build biologically diverse agriculture. Third-party certification organizations verify that organic cotton is grown without the use of toxic and persistent pesticides and synthetic fertilizers. In addition, federal regulations prohibit the use of genetically engineered seed for organic farming. (Source: Organic Trade Association, 2008).\nQ: Are your products Certified Organic and what does that mean?\nA: Organic agriculture is based on the principles of agroecology and replaces agrichemicals with natural methods and botanical products for building soil fertility, water quality, and efficiencies, and for controlling pests. Organic farming is the only agricultural method covered by international regulations and guidelines. Achieving certified organic status may require up to three years to transition from conventional practices and land use. Certification must be obtained at the farm level to achieve organic status of the raw material and must be tracked through the supply chain to ensure the organic status of the final product for consumer labeling (2011 Organic Cotton Market Report, Textile Exchange).\nOur cotton is 100% GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) Certified, our manufacturers are 100% Fair Trade Certified.\nQ: What does Fair Trade mean?\nA: Fair trade is based on a partnership between consumers and producers\u2019 cooperatives in the developing world, offering a better price and improved terms of trade for agricultural products. Fair trade certification is third-party assured to meet socioeconomic and environmental standards\u2014addressing aspects of environmental sustainability, banning GMOs and certain chemicals, and operating on a performance improvement principle to address environmental impact. Fairtrade cotton must also comply with recognized social and labor standards during material processing and manufacturing stages. (2011 Organic Cotton Market Report, Textile Exchange)\nQ: Can I become a volunteer?\nA: Of course! We are always on the look our for extra help. If you feel you have what it takes to become a BOBster, simply email us at info@booksoverbombs.org and our support team will get back to you as soon as possible.",

        "raw_content": "Memorial Held Near Crosses\nThe Logan County Right to Life chapter held a memorial service Sunday afternoon in the Logan County Fairground Building in Paris, near the site of the 4,000 crosses the group placed in a field east of the airport recently.\nEach of the 4,000 crosses is meant to represent a life lost to abortion every day. Barbara Durkee, who is the president of the Logan County Right to Life\n\"I can tell you that I didn\u2019t go one place in the area that people didn\u2019t go, \u2018Are you the one who put the crosses up?\u2019 It is unbelievable how the crosses have touched the people in our community\u2019s life,\" said Durkee. \"It\u2019s a memorial and it\u2019s a 3-D presentation.\n\"I can say 4,000 a day are killed by abortion in the United States every day but it doesn\u2019t mean as much unless you see it in a 3-D setting and (equate) that cross with an unborn baby who was never given life.\"\nThe program included musical numbers from the Subiaco choir, the choir combined with the St. Joseph\u2019s choir, and Anita Downs of Magazine; speeches from the originator of the cross project and State Rep. Jon Eubanks, who updated those in attendance about pro-life matters in the 89th General Assembly; and a happy birthday balloon release in honor of those never born.\nEubanks noted the bills passed, vetoed and subsequently overridden by legislators that will prohibit abortion at 20 and 12 weeks of pregnancy. Some of the most restrictive laws in the nation, a legal challenge was expected, Gov. Mike Beebe said when he vetoed the bills, and has materialized.\n\"One of my colleagues who is an attorney said we have a full time attorney who works for the state and his job is to defend the legislation and the legislature when things like this are passed,\" said Eubanks. \"He doesn\u2019t have anything else that he needs to be working on and this is important enough \u2014 you never know how a court is going to rule.\n\"That wasn\u2019t a good enough reason not to do something because of what might happen.\"\nEubanks also advised the group to remain stead, firm and pursue the issue \"in the most loving and forgiving manner you can. I think that is the most productive way to get results with this issue, and for that matter any issue.\"\nDurkee updated the group of over 80 on activities which the group is undertaking, including a recent abortion debate held at the University of Arkansas in Fayetteville.\nThe county Right to Life chapter is very active, Durkee said, with activities including helping to launch a Students For Life chapter at Subiaco Academy, created a human cross \"life chain\" along highways 22 and 109 in October, attended a March for Life, and supporting Camp Joshua.\nDurkee said no determination has been made as to where the crosses, which span the width of a football field, will next be displayed, but she said she would like to see them in Johnson County, Sebastian County and or south Logan County.",

        "raw_content": "Between 1100 and 1600, the borders of medieval Europe gradually became cemented into the contours of what are now the nation states of Europe. These modern political borders, around which anxieties of nationality, identity, territory, and sovereignty continue to be dramatized, represent the latest manifestation of a continuous process of territorial renewal, often violent, always traumatic. In Britain, the sixteenth-century Reformation exemplifies a larger agenda of nationalist unification; in Europe, the medieval legacy of regionalism and imperialism was superseded by national borders in a globalized economy.\nWith issues of migration, identity, global movement, and transnationalism on the current political agenda, this is the right time to explore the cultural history of borders and the responses of writers and thinkers, both secular and religious. Historical studies of medieval frontiers, which focus on the political and military aspects of borders, can be read alongside recent theories of medieval multiculturalism and national identities to assess the significance of borders and borderlands as social, political, geographical, and literary spaces.\u200b\nThe aim of our research group is to explore the cultural and political implications of borderlands in medieval and early modern Europe, and to set these discussions in the context of modern borders and border anxieties. Drawing on a range of disciplinary perspectives including literature, history, archaeology, geography, languages, and cultural practice, we hope to open up further discussions and debates across other disciplines and time periods.\nThe Borders and Borderlands research cluster is affiliated with the Bristol Institute for Migration and Mobility Studies (BIMMS) http://www.bristol.ac.uk/research/institutes/migration-mobility/",

Since social media does not come with its own set of rules and regulations, here are some tips when deciding to integrate social media into your child's life.\nLearn the language. \"Facebook, who uses Facebook anymore?\" kids will say. Educate yourself on the sites, terms and language being used by your children and their peers. Hashtags, vining, tweeting, streaming, selfies \u2013 nouns and verbs used frequently in youth culture.\nSlowly but surely. When it comes to driving, would you allow your child to drive without any experience or knowledge of the rules of the road? Without hours of supervision and teaching? Social media should be approached in the same fashion. Children should have many restrictions in the beginning (i.e. parent supervision, frequent monitoring, limited access to sites/devices, minimal time, no access to passwords). As children prove their responsibility, they earn more freedom, access and independence.\nKeep your child's maturity level in mind. Although age is a good indicator, you know your child best. Not all things are created equal. There are numerous apps, access levels and privacy settings. Not all settings and apps will be appropriate for your child. Read the information provided by the app store, monitor use and slowly add more access.\nIt is all about how you use it. Although it may feel differently, technology was not created to make a parent's job even harder. Help your child explore the positive aspects of technology and incorporate it into your family life (i.e. family game night, FaceTime distant relatives, watch funny videos).\nEducate yourself about social media. Learn about passwords, privacy settings, internet access and the cloud. (What is the cloud and where does the information go? An article for another day). Discuss concerns with your electronics and access supplier. They can answer questions about the product, parental controls and software that may apply to your child's needs.\nThe earlier you intervene, the more control you will have. It is better to start younger and provide minimal access (i.e. one social media site you monitor) than to allow full access to all social media without supervision as an adolescent.\nIt is important to balance time. We do not want to grant children an all-access pass. Set a \"screen time\" limit. Children should be participating in other activities besides social media.\nNot all is fair with children and social media. Children will make mistakes when using social media. The goal is to help children learn from mistakes, and the best way to learn is to practice, receive feedback and suffer the consequences. The normal reaction would be to remove access completely. However, this limits a child's ability to learn from their mistakes.\nBe a filter. Although your child will be exposed, you have control over HOW the information will be received. Ask questions about games they enjoy, who they talk to, sites they frequent or YouTube channels they follow. Better yet, sit down with them and visit these sites together.\nBe a good model. How often are you on your phone or tablet? Do you Facebook at dinnertime? In the middle of a conversation? Your children are watching you; you can model how to use social media appropriately.\nNot bad, just new. The media does a good job of scaring us that the world is falling apart. Children are participating in more activities than ever. They are still communicating, but the mode of communication has shifted. Instead of trying to fight against it, learn it. Join social media sites, text and, if you're feeling confident, share information on the cloud.\nLastly, trust your parenting. It's all about communication, supervision, consistency and consequences. Now only if you could figure out how to turn the camera to take a selfie. There is always next year.",

        "title": "An onerous task: Administration of family and medical leave",
        "raw_content": "The Family Medical Leave Act of 1993 (FMLA) is a federal law that affords eligible employees leave to attend to certain personal and family health and related matters. The FMLA applies to all primary and secondary public schools regardless of size. In order to be eligible for family medical leave, an employee must have worked with their employer for at least 12 months, and must have worked at least 1,250 hours during the past 12 months. However, full-time teachers are deemed to meet the 1,250 hours-worked requirement regardless of hours actually worked. Any attempt to declare a full-time teacher ineligible on an hours-worked basis should be carefully considered.\nIf an employee meets the eligibility requirements, an employer is required to provide the eligible employee with up to 12 workweeks of unpaid leave during a 12-month period for FMLA-qualifying reasons. Those reasons include:\nplacement with the employee of a child for adoption or foster care;\nto care for an immediate family member (spouse, child or parent) with a serious health condition; or\nto take medical leave when the employee is unable to work because of a serious health condition.\nIn addition, the FMLA was amended in 2008 to provide two new military family leave provisions, qualifying exigency leave and military caregiver leave. Pursuant to the amendment, employees may take up to 26 weeks for a qualified exigency that is the result of a covered service member being called to duty in the Armed Forces or to care for a covered service member who is injured or becomes ill while on covered active duty. In calculating an employee\u2019s leave entitlement, employers do not count the days during break (for example, winter, spring or summer breaks).\nThe Family Medical Leave Act requires that employers provide more than leave to an eligible employee. The employer is also required to maintain group health benefits during the leave and contribute the same employer portion of the premium on behalf of the employee. The employee should implement a standard practice for the collection of the employee portion of the premium. The employer must also reinstate the employee to the employee\u2019s original or equivalent position, with equivalent pay and benefits, upon return from leave. Additional obligations may arise under a board policy or collective bargaining agreement.\nWhile the eligibility rules seem relatively easy to understand, the onerous part of FMLA is the administration of leave. An employer can reduce this burden by making sure appropriate practices are in place to process a leave request. The United States Department of Labor (DOL) maintains a variety of forms online (at www.dol.gov) that can assist with this process. An employer should check back regularly with the DOL to ensure the most recent version of the form is being utilized.\nAfter determining initial eligibility, an employer will want to pay particular attention to the certification process. When an employee requests family medical leave, the employer should provide the employee with the Notice of Eligibility and Rights and Responsibilities (Department of Labor Form WH-381) along with the appropriate certification form. It is the employer\u2019s responsibility to notify employees of their FMLA rights. Employers are required to post a conspicuous FMLA notice on premises and must provide a copy of the notice to each employee. The DOL has different forms for certification of an employee\u2019s serious health condition, certification of a family member\u2019s serious health condition, certification of a qualifying exigency for military family leave, certification for serious injury or illness of a current service member for military family leave, and a certification for serious injury or illness of a veteran for military caregiver leave. The employer will want to be certain to use the appropriate certification form.\nAn employee has 15 days to return the certification to the employer. The certification should be carefully reviewed when it is returned. If information is incomplete or confusing, or fraud is suspected, an employer may contact the provider to request complete information, clarification or confirmation of authenticity, but the employer may not request additional information. Employers may also request second and third medical opinions (at the employer\u2019s expense) if there is concern with the initial certification. Careful review of the certification form and follow-up can prove an effective tool in administering FMLA.\nWhen an employee has requested family medical leave or when an employer otherwise knows that an employee\u2019s leave may be for an FMLA-qualifying reason, the employer must notify the employee of his/her eligibility within five business days. It is also the employer\u2019s responsibility to designate an employee\u2019s leave as paid or unpaid and as FMLA-qualifying and must provide notice of such designation to the employee within five days of the beginning of the leave. The designation should be based upon information provided to the employer by the employee, including medical certification. An employee\u2019s FMLA leave does not begin to run until it has been designated as FMLA leave by the employer.\nIf an employee requests to take leave for a proper purpose, the eligible employee may take FMLA leave in one continuous block of time or on an intermittent basis and/or as part of a reduced leave schedule when medically necessary for the treatment of the employee or the employee\u2019s child, spouse, or parents with a \u201cserious health condition,\u201d or for recovery from treatment or the condition. An eligible employee may take leave intermittently or on a reduced leave scheduled for the birth and care of a child or the placement of a child for adoption or foster care only upon the agreement of the employer. Intermittent leave is taken in single, smaller blocks of time due to a specific qualifying reason. A reduced leave schedule reduces an employee\u2019s usual number of working hours per workweek or hours per workday.\nReduced-schedule leave and intermittent leave can prove to be challenging. An employer will want to consider how work will be covered, how absences will be reported and how time will be accurately tracked. Plans to address these issues should be discussed with the employee and put in writing at the outset. Consideration should be given to whether electronic absence reporting software can adequately track and monitor leave. In addition, the employer must consider whether the family medical leave runs concurrently with sick leave and how it relates to other forms of paid or unpaid leave that may be available through board policy or a collective bargaining agreement. Tracking overlapping leave can be particularly challenging.\nSpecial rules apply to \u201cinstructional employees,\u201d including teachers, athletic coaches, driving instructors and special education assistants. When an instructional employee needs intermittent leave or a reduced leave schedule for more than 20 percent of the total number of working days over the period of leave, the teacher can be required to take the leave continuously or transfer to a position that would not be as seriously affected by the intermittent or reduced leave schedule. Instructional employees are also subject to special rules when taking consecutive FMLA leave, depending on the timing of the leave. If an instructional employee\u2019s FMLA leave begins more than five weeks before the end of an academic term (or semester), will last at least three weeks, and would end during the final three weeks of the term, the employee can be required to continue the leave through the end of the term. An instructional employee can also be required to continue his/her leave through the end of a term if the leave begins more than five weeks before the end of the term, will last at least two weeks, and ends during the last two weeks of the term, if the leave is taken for a reason other than the employee\u2019s own serious health condition. An instructional employee may also be required to continue FMLA leave through the end of a term if the FMLA leave is taken during the last three weeks of the term and continues for more than five work days. These special rules do not apply to other non-instructional employees of the district.\nFamily medical leave scenarios can be particularly complex. Employers will want to consider working through such scenarios with legal counsel to avoid the many pitfalls that exist.",

        "title": "Barton Stacey, Hampshire, All Saints Church | History & Photos",
        "raw_content": "Home > England > Hampshire > Historic Churches > Barton Stacey\nBarton Stacey, All Saints Church\nAll Saints Church, Barton Stacey\nAll Saints church in the Hampshire village of Barton Stacey may stand on one of the oldest sites of continuous Christian worship in England. We do not know exactly when the first church was built, but it must have been well before the 10th century. That Saxon church was dedicated to St Victor, a 5th century African bishop.\nThe only relic of the Saxon church is an altar stone in the south transept, discovered during building works in 1900.\nAfter the Norman Conquest the church was granted to the de Piste family. They in turn granted it to Llanthony Abbey in 1136. The abbey established a retreat for monks in Gloucester, known as Llanthony Secunda Abbey, and the connection with Gloucester lasted throughout the medieval period.\nSet into the churchyard wall is the base of a medieval churchyard cross, thought to have come from the abbey. After the Dissolution of the Monasteries the advowson was granted to the Dean and Chapter of Winchester, who hold it to this day.\nThe church was rebuilt in the 12th century in Transitional style. The only remnants of the 12th century building are a pair of columns at the west end of the nave. If you look closely you can see that one of the columns is out of alignment due to a shifting foundation of chalk and earth.\nAnother rebuilding in Early English style took place in the middle of the 13th century. The apse was lengthened and transepts added. Unusually, the transepts were built east of the chancel arch. An embattled tower was added around 1510 to give us the building we see today.\nThe tower is in a style common to Gloucestershire, another sign of the close ties to Llanthony Secunda Abbey in Gloucester. Carved decoration on the tower sugests that stone fragments may have been reused from the original Norman church.\nLooking east down the nave\nA rabble-rousing rector\nOne of the most fascinating pieces of history linked to Barton Stacey church revolves around Rev. Stephen Bachiler, who served as vicar of Wherwell church from 1587 until 1605, when he was ejected from the living for his non-conformist views. From 1614-1631 he lived in Newton Stacey, where he continued to preach unofficially, and gathered adherents amongst the local population. Bachiler was stridently vocal against the role of bishops in the Church, famously declaring 'The sun rises equally over all'.\nIn 1632 trouble broke out between Bachiler and Sir Robert Paine, lord of the manor at Barton Stacey. Paine was the Sheriff of Hampshire and Churchwarden of Barton Stacey. The church was in poor repair, and Paine proposed to repair the chancel and add a much-needed buttress to the south wall, all at his own expense. Bachiler objected to the work, and led an angry mob of villagers who stopped construction. He then led the mob on to Newton Stacey and destroyed the chapel. It was never rebuilt.\nIn 1632 Bachiler set sail for the American colonies. He pastored several congregations and always seemed to court controversy. In 1639 he founded the town of Hampton, probably named after Southampton. In Hampton he established the First Congregational Church, one of the oldest Christian sites in America, which is still active today. Bachiler married for the fourth time to Mary Beedle, a woman half his age. She was described by a contemporary as 'leading a more than normal venturesome life'. In 1651 Mary was convicted of adultery. Bachiler petitioned for a divorce but was refused by the Massachusetts courts.\nNow in his nineties, Bachiler left the American colonies and returned to England in 1653. He died in 1656 in London. His descendants include Sir Winston Churchill and two US Presidents; Gerald Ford and Richard Nixon. The eventful life of this controversial man is recalled with a pair of flags, one British and one American, set into a medieval alcove beneath a carved canopy.\nRev Stephen Bachiler commemoration\nIn 1792 a fire swept through the village, destroying most of the thatched cottages. Villagers had to seek shelter in the church.\nA Headless Skeleton\nIn the 20th century the church acted as the official garrison church for Barton Stacey Camp. The Royal Engineers were used to make needed repairs in 1971. During their work the engineers unearthed 6 stone coffins in a vault under the north aisle. The coffins appeared to date to the 17th century, possibly to the Civil War period. One of the coffins was found to hold the headless skeleton of a man. Could he have been killed during the Civil War?\nOf the interior furnishings the altar table deserves attention; it is 17th century in Flemish style, carved with figures of Faith, Hope, and Charity. There are beautifully preserved medieval tiles in the sanctuary.\nThe font is 12th century, carved from Purbeck marble. You can still see evidence of the leather hinge and clasp used to seal the font cover. The present cover is made from a 15th century screen removed from Longparish church.\nA pair of funeral hatchments hang at the west end of the nave. One is to Sir Henry Wright-Wilson of Cranbourne Manor (d. 1832) and the other is to his wife Francis (d. 1836).\nLook for the Latin inscription on the south window just east of the porch. It appears to be 15th century, and commemorates the burial of John Pann, or Paull. The churchyard also contains some very good 18th century table tombs.\nAbout Barton Stacey\nAddress: Main Street, Barton Stacey, Hampshire, England, SO21 3RT\nLocation: By the crossroads in the centre of the village.\nWebsite: Barton Stacey\nCraigellachie Forest Park, Cairngorms\nLongparish, St Nicholas Church - 1.8 miles (Historic Church)\nChilbolton, St Mary-the-Less Church - 2.6 miles (Historic Church)\nWherwell, St Peter & Holy Cross Church - 2.7 miles (Historic Church)\nHurstbourne Priors, St Andrew's Church - 3.4 miles (Historic Church)\nLeckford, St Nicholas Church - 4.4 miles (Historic Church)\nWhitchurch Silk Mill - 4.5 miles (Historic Building)\nHoughton Lodge Gardens - 5.5 miles (Garden)\nFreefolk, St Nicholas Church - 5.7 miles (Historic Church)\nNearest Accommodation to Barton Stacey:\nGordon's House, Andover - 5.3 miles\nThe Cottage, Whitchurch - 6 miles\nThe Pump House, Romsey - 8.5 miles\nMore self catering near Barton Stacey\nNorton Park- A QHotel - 2.6 miles\nWonston, Hampshire\nMore Hotels near Barton Stacey\nThe White Hart Arkells Pub Group - 4.6 miles\nLittle Mead B&B - 6.1 miles\nThe Three Cups Inn - 6.3 miles\nMore bed and breakfasts near Barton Stacey",

        "raw_content": "Completion of your business purchase\n13th October 2017 Paul DodgshonNews\nIn the business world, completion can have a variety of meanings. In project financing, for example, completion is when the cash flow of the project becomes the primary source of repayment on loans. Prior to completion, a turnkey contractor or business loan might be used to cover costs.\nHowever, when buying or selling a business, completion is roughly equivalent to the same term in property purchase.\nWhen is a purchase complete?\nCompletion is the last stage of a business purchase. In much the same way as buying a house, buying a business goes through a number of stages. These, broadly, are \u2013 negotiation, agreement, exchange of contracts, and completion. The last is the point at which the deal is closed, and the balance of money changes hands according to the terms of the contract.\nPrior to completion, the seller can continue running the business any way they like, unless they\u2019ve signed an agreement that states otherwise. From an operational point of view, before completion, the business belongs to the seller. After completion, it belongs to the buyer.\nIf you\u2019re selling your business, think about the implications of this. Any long-term commitments you enter into could make the business less attractive to a buyer who wishes to pursue a different strategy. The right decisions though might increase its attractiveness.\nOverview of the business purchase process\nA business sale begins once both buyer and seller are satisfied with the contract terms. For the buyer, the searches would not have revealed any problems and all buildings and assets would have been checked and met with their approval. Any outstanding obligations such as gaining planning permission will have been undertaken by the seller, and the necessary funds secured.\nThere will then, usually, be a Heads of Agreement document that, though not legally binding, is an important step in the process. This brings the key elements of the sale into a single document, and also acts as a timetable for the remaining stages of the purchase process.\nNow the buyer can carry out their own due diligence to analyse the business accounts, practices and day-to-day operations. Once this is completed to the buyer\u2019s satisfaction, the Sale and Purchase Agreement will be signed, which outlines both parties\u2019 obligations in the process.\nAll that remains is for payments to be made. Once this is undertaken in full, or to the extent outlined previously, the deal can be completed.\nFollowing completion\nCompletion is the point at which the company passes to the control of the buyer. This brings a range of new obligations, particularly with regard to land, trademarks, and patents. Registration details need to be changed, and contracts and insurance amended. The buyer will need to inform the business rates department, the Land Registry, and other statutory bodies.\nBuying a business is a complicated process and you\u2019ll usually need assistance. At Business Partnership, we have thirty years\u2019 experience helping people buy and sell businesses.

Most of us have a nice barbecue with a few close friends \u2014 maybe a pool party.\nThen there\u2019s billionaire paper mogul Peter Brant. He does his end-of-summer party a little differently but it\u2019s still in essence, a summer blowout.\nOn Sunday Brant opened up his massive property on Conyers Farm, an elite residential enclave, to what seemed like the entire town of Greenwich, Connecticut.\nSo we had to go check out the details. Couldn\u2019t help ourselves.\nA few things you should know about Brant \u2014 he is probably best known in business circles for modernizing the paper company his father founded, White Birch Paper, in an age when the newspapers White Birch once serviced were (and still are) dropping like flies.\nThanks to that the Brants stayed wealthy, and Peter used that wealth to take on some interesting hobbies. Two of those hobbies were on full display this weekend. The first was Brant\u2019s love of collecting contemporary art, especially works created by his friend, Andy Warhol, and the second was the \u201csport of kings,\u201d polo.\nBrant picked up the sport in his 30s (because\u2026 why not?) and now hosts matches on the grounds he co-founded, the Greenwich Polo Club.\nWikimediaImagine this, 15 feet long, right in front of your face.\nThe grounds also house The Brant Foundation, which is where we met Brant around 2:00 pm for a private viewing of his new exhibition, ANDY WARHOL.\nFor the record, the billionaire does not look like a polo player. He also does not look like he ran with the wild crowd that Warhol reportedly hung out with. Then again, as Brant told us, Andy hung out with \u201cvery unstable, and very stable people.\u201d\nBrant, with his preppy style, quiet voice, and steady gaze was clearly in the latter group of Warhol\u2019s friends.\nAnd there he was, not just leading the tour, but on the walls as well. Among the 15 foot Mao painting and the Warhol self portraits, there were Polaroids of a young Peter relaxed among friends.\nAfter the tour of the collection it was time to sit down for some polo. This is when things got really crazy.\nThousands of people were roaming the grounds, eating and drinking in the sun \u2014 kids, dogs you name it. And why not? To close the polo season in North America, the best (hands down, no question) polo player in the world was playing on Brant\u2019s Royal Salute team.\nTracy Chung for Business InsiderFacundo Pieres, chilling.\nHis name is Facundo Pieres. He\u2019s from Argentina and he\u2019s only 28.\nTo be the best player in the world of polo you must start young. You must not be afraid of falling off a horse at a weird (maybe deadly) angle or flying into your opponent (or even teammate) at incredibly high speeds. You must not get lonely when you travel around the world\u2019s polo circuit, which spends fall/winter in South America, then traverses the globe until it gets to the United States for the summer.\nPieres is number one in the world because he is the best \u201c10 goal\u201d player in the world. All players in polo are assigned a goal ranking from -2 to 10. Pros are generally a 5 or above. There are only 10 10 goal players in the entire world. Brant, for the record, is a 2.\nNow, polo is an expensive sport. There are 4-6 periods (known as chukkers) per game and you need a new horse for every chukker. For that reason, most teams have sponsors. Brant\u2019s team is sponsored by Royal Salute, a Chivas Brothers scotch.\nNeedless to say, this was a major plus for Sunday\u2019s polo patrons.\nAs we sipped, the players on the field soared. Polo is all about speed, super clear communication, and some weird psychic ability. Guys like Pieres know where the ball is going before it gets there because they can feel it. They can juggle it on their sticks so no one can take it from them. They can make horses to back flips.\nThis skill made for some exciting moments for an increasingly tipsy crowd. In the last chukker, the opposing side (Airstream) scored an incredible 5 goals. Airstream had been down by 6, and they could\u2019ve tied the entire thing up. But lucky for Pieres and Brant, they ran out of time. The crowd went nuts.\nIn the world of sports and at the end of the summer, seriously\u2026 how much better does it get?\nandy warhol art billionaires clusterstock-us connecticut sports thelife",

        "raw_content": "50 maps that show how guns are trafficked into every state\nThe ATF is responsible for understanding how guns end up on the black market.\nIt should come as no surprise that 2015 was a strong year for gun sales.\nThe FBI processed more than 23 million background checks in 2015 through the National Instant Background Check System (NICS), shattering the previous record set in 2013.\nThe total number of background checks conducted is considered the most accurate measurement of gun sales, though it's not always perfectly accurate: Checks aren't required at many gun shows (the gun show loophole), and a single check can be used for a person purchasing multiple guns at once.\nDespite the grey areas, a key component of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms' (ATF) mission is to track where \u2014 and how \u2014 all these guns are moving across the country.\nThe ATF releases a state-by-state report of firearms traces each year. The report includes firearms that are both legally and illegally bought but have been recovered from crime scenes (known as \"crime guns\") or suspected of use in crimes. The 2015 report, based on data gathered throughout 2014, was released in August 2015.\nTo conduct a trace, law enforcement officials send all the information they have about the gun to the ATF's National Tracing Center in West Virginia. The ATF then goes through a complicated process of unraveling the gun's sales history, calling manufacturers, and requesting information from gun shops across the country.\nTraces aim to identify the purchaser, original legal retailer, and possessor of the crime gun in question, according to the ATF's tracing guide.\nThese traces help the ATF understand firearm supply chains and pinpoint crucial sources of guns to the black market. For every traced firearm, the ATF reports the type, caliber, criminal category (i.e. \"dangerous drugs\" or \"firearm under investigation\"), and the time-to-crime (how much time has elapsed between the original sale and the crime).\nEven guns purchased legally can end up in the hands of criminals. For example, the four weapons used in the San Bernardino shooting in December, though modified, were originally purchased legally from gun stores, the Wall Street Journal reported.\nChesterfield County Sheriff's lieutenant David Lee removes rifles from a shipping container as he and other officers sort through thousands of guns in Pageland, South Carolina, November 10, 2015.\nOn top of that, guns are routinely trafficked from states with weak regulation, like Georgia, subverting strong gun-control regulation in states like New York, according to Mayors Against Illegal Guns.\nIn Georgia, for example, no state law requires permits and registration for gun owners, and an average handgun may sell legally at a store for $100, reports the New York Times. That same handgun can sell for upwards of $500 in the black market in New York. All the seller needs to do is take a 12-hour drive up the I-95 for a 400% profit.\nFrom 2012 to 2014, 29% of guns recovered from crime scenes were first purchased from legitimate retailers in other states, according to the Center for American Progress.\nThese maps below show how guns travel in-and-out of states.\nThis post previously stated that background checks aren't required at gun shows through a \"loophole.\" Some states, however, require universal background checks that still apply at gun shows.\nThe ATF traced 5,891 firearms in Alabama in 2014. The vast majority, 3,579, were pistols and linked to possession of weapon and firearm under investigation charges.\nAlabama has lax firearm regulations. 3,561 guns eventually linked to crime originated from within the state, while neighboring Georgia and Mississippi were the largest outside sources.\nThe ATF traced 714 firearms in Alaska in 2014. A little over half (434) of the firearms traced in Alaska came from within the state, though a sizable proportion came from Texas, California, and Washington.\nAlaska has the most gun-related deaths of any state, with nearly 20 gun-related deaths per 100,000 people\u2014 more than twice the national rate. Most, however, were suicides.\nThe ATF traced 7,610 firearms in Arizona in 2014. Of those, 2,686 firearms were recovered from Phoenix alone.\nThe majority were pistols and came from within the state, though a sizeable portion came from California, Texas, and neighboring New Mexico.\n912 traced guns were linked to drug crimes, the second highest category, owing to Arizona's proximity to the cartel lands of northern Mexico.\nThe ATF traced 933 guns in Arkansas in 2014. Just under half were pistols, and the majority of firearms came from within the state.\nFrom outside the state, most guns came from Texas and Florida, though a significant amount came from neighboring states Missouri and Oklahoma.\nArkansas is the third most heavily armed state, with 41.6 guns for every 100,000 people, according to CBS.\nThe ATF traced an astounding 34,890 firearms in California alone in 2014. Pistols were the largest group, followed by rifles and revolvers. Los Angeles accounted for the largest proportion with 4,864 recoveries, followed by Sacramento and Oakland.\nThough California is a major exporter of crime guns, just under half of California's firearms traces originated within the state. Most outside guns came from New Mexico, Nevada, and Texas.\nIn the wake of the San Bernardino shooting on December 2nd, expect California's gun regulations to come under increased scrutiny.\nThe ATF traced 3,389 firearms in Colorado in 2014. 1,919 of the traced firearms were pistols. Just over half of the firearms traced in Colorado came from within the state. California, Texas, and Florida were the top three outside sources.\nColorado is no stranger to high-profile mass shootings.\nIn 1999, 13 people were killed at Columbine High School. In 2012, James Holmes murdered 12 people in a movie theater armed with a shotgun, rifle, and a pistol.\nAnd last November, Robert Lewis Dear killed three people in a Planned Parenthood clinic in Colorado Springs.\nThe ATF traced 1,830 firearms in Connecticut in 2014.\nA significant portion of traces, 435, were receivers/frames, which are essentially stripped-down guns, and not technically considered firearms by US federal law. Receivers up to 80% complete and may be bought and sold freely as a way to skirt gun regulations, though the buyer needs to complete the remaining build themselves.\nThough Connecticut has a relatively low crime rate, the deadliest school shooting in American history occurred in 2012 when Adam Lanza shot 20 students and six teachers at Sandy Hook Elementary school.\nThe ATF traced 949 firearms in Delaware in 2014. Of these traces, 425 originated with legitimate sellers in Delaware.\n363 traced guns were recovered in Wilmington, Delaware's largest city.

Of these, 11,197 originated in Florida.\nFirearm-friendly Georgia, Texas, and Alabama were the largest outside sources for Florida's guns. The recoveries were evenly split between Florida's largest cities.\nIn October, Florida's House narrowly passed a bill allowing 1.4 million Floridians to openly carry firearms.\nThe ATF traced 11,241 firearms in Georgia in 2014. Of these, 6,715 originated in-state, while a significant amount of traces came from neighboring Alabama, South Carolina, and Florida.\nA large number of guns also came from the west, driven over from California and Texas.\nGun culture runs deep in Georgia. For example, in Kennesaw, every household is required to own and maintain a firearm.\nThe ATF only traced 128 guns in Hawaii in 2014, and only 21 traces originated within the state.\nHawaii has the lowest gun death rate in the entire country. The largest number of outside traces originated in California and Washington, though the quantities are small (only 8 and 4 respectively).\nThe ATF traced 834 guns in Idaho in 2014. 385 of these traces were pistols. A huge portion, 386, of the ATF's traces originated within the state, followed closely by Washington, with 42.\nIdaho is one of the easiest states to buy a gun \u2014 no permit or registration is required. Similarly to Alaska, easy access to may have affected suicide rates: guns used in suicides accounted for 32 traces in Idaho last year.\nThe ATF traced 11,568 guns alone in 2014 in Illinois. Owing to Chicago's ongoing gun violence problem, 6,429 of these guns were recovered in Chicago, and a whopping 6,394 of these guns were pistols.\nIn an effort to tamper gun violence, Chicago has enacted some of the toughest gun regulations in the country. But a huge portion of firearms \u2014 1,041 of them \u2014 originated in Indiana.\nThough Chicago itself has strict gun laws, it's as easy as driving an hour into Indiana to purchase guns legally.\nThe ATF traced a total of 5,587 guns in Indiana in 2014. Indiana has comparatively weak gun laws, so the vast majority \u2014 3,553 \u2014 of these firearms actually originated from within the state. 2,655 traces originated from legitimate gun sellers in Indianapolis.\nIndiana is also a major exporter of crime guns. Don's Guns and Galleries, an Indianapolis gun store, sold 2,294 guns eventually linked to crime in the last four years alone, according to the Americans for Gun Safety Foundation.\nThe ATF traced 1,461 firearms in Iowa in 2014. 784 of these guns originated in Iowa, owing to the state's weak gun laws, and 730 of these traces were pistols.\nThe ATF traced 2,248 guns in Kansas in 2014.

Seattle and Spokane were the top recovery cities.\nWashington has relatively lax gun laws: there's no state licensing requirements to purchase, or possess handguns, rifles, or shotguns, according to the NRA.\nThe ATF traced 933 guns in West Virginia in 2014.\n447 of these firearms came from within the state. Pennsylvania was the top outside source, contributing 26 firearms in 2014. The top recovery city was Charleston, with 268.\nThe ATF traced 3,684 firearms in Wisconsin in 2014. 2,321 of these firearms originated with legitimate sellers in Wisconsin. 2,121 of these guns were pistols. The ATF recovered 1,980 guns in Milwaukee alone, Wisconsin's top recovery city.\nWisconsin's Governor Scott Walker, a one-time presidential candidate, further relaxed Wisconsin's gun laws in May through a bill that eliminates the mandatory 48-hour waiting period to purchase a handgun in the state, according CBS.\nWyoming is sparsely-populated: the ATF traced just 224 firearms in the state in 2014. 93 of these came from within the state. Neighboring Montana and Colorado were the top outside sources, contributing 12 and 13 guns to Wyoming in 2014 respectively.\nWyoming is the most heavily armed state in the U.S. with a per capita gun ownership rate of 195.7 per 100 people. This equates to 114,052 registered firearms in a state with only 582,658 people, according to CBS.\nDespite this, Wyoming's homicide rate is relatively low, at 2.9 per 100,000 people in 2014, according to the Death Penalty Information Center.\nMore: Features Prime ATF Guns",

        "raw_content": "We Know Another Villain Who Will Be In 'The Amazing Spider-Man 2'\nPaul Giamatti is in talks to play The Rhino.\nTheo Wargo, Getty Images / Marvel\nWe already know that Jamie Foxx is signed on to play Electro in \"The Amazing Spider-Man\" sequel, and now we're getting word that Paul Giamatti is in talks to star as his favorite villain, the Rhino.\nAccording to The Hollywood Reporter, the actor is currently in talks for the role in the sequel to last summer's blockbuster.\nIf you're not familiar with the character, he's a Russian thug who was transformed in an experiment to have super speed and strength ... who, yes, looks like a Rhino.\nIn a way, he's kind of like the Juggernaut from \"X-Men\" or The Hulk with a horn.\nWhat's more interesting to us though is that in the comics he's another member of Spider-Man's Sinister Six group, which we speculated may be just the way to link up Spidey in a future crossover with The Avengers. (The group once took down the Sinister Six.)\nIn Rhino's appearance with the Sinister Six, both he and Electro are fighting the Avengers.\nOf course, getting Spider-Man in a Disney film would be difficult considering Sony has the rights to the film, but the merger could be potential box-office gold down the line.\nTHR also reports that Felicity Jones (our pick for Anastasia Steele in the \"Fifty Shades of Grey\" film adaptation) is in talks for a role in the sequel as well.\nConsidering Shailene Woodley is already signed on as Mary Jane Parker, there aren't a lot more women to choose from.\nThere's Liz Allan, a high school student who always defended\nPeter against her boyfriend Flash Thompson. Seeing as we've already seen a lot of Flash in the first film, we doubt this would be Jones' character.\nInstead, we're leaning more toward the role of Felicia Hardy/Black Cat (essentially Marvel's version of Catwoman) since she was another known member of the Sinister Six.\nPlus, Anne Hathaway was originally going to play her in the first film.\n\"The Amazing Spider-Man\" sequel won't be out until 2014.\nSEE ALSO: What J.J.

        "raw_content": "The number of Arkansas travelers using Tulsa International Airport in March more than doubled the month-to-month average, according to a license plate survey of the TIA parking lots.\nTIA officials routinely survey out-of-state license plates and saw a spike in March, said Alexis Higgins, TIA spokeswoman.\nThe numbers reflected Spring Break travel, she said.\nThe rise corresponds to nearly a 18 percent drop in the number of people boarding flights at Arkansas\u2019 second-largest airport \u2014 Northwest Arkansas Regional Airport.\nTulsa Fare Tulsa\u2019s air fares have been so favorable and gasoline prices dropped so much over the fall and winter that many travelers come from Northwest Arkansas, Southeast Kansas and Southwest Missouri to fly \u2014 by-passing the Northwest Arkansas Regional Airport and Springfield-Branson National. License plate surveys indicate that as gasoline prices dipped by 50 percent from October through the end of March, business and leisure travelers voted with their tires, seeking better deals in Tulsa rather than paying the hundreds of dollars more to fly out of the other airports.\nFigures show an 17.8 percent drop in January and February compared to the same month the previous year for Northwest Arkansas Regional. The airport in Highfill, Ark., is known by its three-letter identifier, XNA, which is used by air carriers and the Federal Aviation Administration.\nThe figures are another reflection of the troubled national economy, as people cut back on expenses including travel, said Airport Director Kelly Johnson.\n\u201cThat is one of the first things to be cut is the travel budget,\u201d she said. \u201cWe are hopeful to see more movement from business travelers as the economy turns around, or just settles down.\u201d\nThe airport experienced its 10th straight month of declining numbers in departing passengers, Johnson said.\nJohnson believes the addition of discount carrier, Allegiant Air, will boost traffic at XNA. Allegiant begins twice-weekly nonstop flight on May 22nd from XNA to Los Angeles. The Las Vegas-based low-cost carrier will make the LAX flight available on Mondays and Fridays. There will be an introductory one-way fare of $99 that will eventually go up to $119. This is the first low-cost airline to operate a flight out of XNA. In June, the airline plans to add flights to Las Vegas.\nTulsa International Airport is ranked the 39th-most expensive airport in the U.S. by the Bureau of Transportation Statistics. XNA is the 25th most expensive. From Tulsa, fliers can can get round-trip tickets to Dallas/Fort Worth for less than $100. American Eagle slashed its Dallas fare out of XNA from around $350 to $150 for advance purchases earlier this year. For less than $200, a traveler can purchase a round-trip ticket to places like Orlando, Santa Ana, Minneapolis, Other destinations out of Tulsa for that price include Reno, Nev., or Midland; Albuquerque or Boise Idaho; Buffalo or Burbank; Chicago Midway, Cleveland, Detroit, El Paso and Harlingen, Texas, according to the TIA Web site. The Dallas and Los Angeles fares compare with Tulsa, which offers advance purchase fares to those destinations for $130 and $238. The LAX service replaced the nonstop service out of XNA that American Eagle that ended on April 7.\nThe number of plates from Missouri and Kansas also jumped during the month, according to figures.\nThe average number of plates from Arkansas is 187 but in march spiked to 413. The average number of Missouri plates is 58 but in March rose to 90 \u2014 a 55 percent increase. And, the number of plates from Kansas climbed 54 percent above average \u2014 rising from the routine 124 to 192.\nHaving a discount carrier like Southwest is the first step toward keeping fares low over the long run.",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Project Heartbeat\nHeart Attack vs SCA\nProject Heartbeat in partnership with AEDdonate works with businesses across the UK to make public access defibrillators more accessible in communities. It is also committed to equipping those living and working within these communities with the knowledge and confidence to use one in the event of an emergency.\nThe average time for emergency services to arrive following a 999 call can be as much as 8-11 minutes. In the case of Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA), every minute counts, the victim\u2019s survival rate drops by 7-10% for every minute defibrillation (and CPR) is delayed. During this time, the victim\u2019s survival depends on bystanders who initiate CPR and defibrillation from an AED (Automated External Defibrillator).\nDefibrillation within 3-5 minutes of collapse can produce survival rates as high as 50-70%. This means with more public access defibrillators, we could significantly improve survival rates.\nFor less than the price of your daily coffee, Project Heartbeat gives businesses the chance to potentially save lives in their communities, by sponsoring a defibrillator, whilst receiving positive public recognition for the support they\u2019re giving.\nIn return for sponsoring, your logo and company information will be displayed on the advertising hoarding around the defibrillator\u2019s storage cabinet. This, in turn, raises awareness of their brand and CSR commitment amongst the thousands of local people \u2013 friends, family, neighbours, and colleagues \u2013 that they\u2019re now protecting.\nAEDdonate\nAEDdonate is committed to improving survival from out-of-hospital sudden cardiac arrest, supporting the placement and use of automated external defibrillators (AEDs) to local communities.\nThey achieve this by giving Schools, Pubs, Clubs and Communities the opportunity to fundraise for an AED which can then be placed onto the PAD (Public Access Defibrillator) scheme.\nAEDdonate help safeguard local communities from the UK\u2019s biggest killer \u2013 Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA). By enabling fundraising for AEDs, we can work together to minimise SCAs and save lives.\nTo put this very serious issue into context, there are more than 30,000 out-of-hospital cardiac arrests (OHCAs) in the UK each year, less than 1 in 10 of those victims survive to be discharged from hospital. It goes without saying that the need for more public access defibrillators is urgent and real in our local communities.\nWe need to act now!\nBy working with local authorities, we have identified where more public access defibrillators are needed.\nWe now need Sponsors to help us put them in place.\nFor full details about the Project Heartbeat package and costs please complete the form above or call 01785 472 224\nSudden cardiac arrest (SCA) is an \u2018electrical\u2019 problem. An SCA occurs when the heart loses its electrical rhythm and suddenly and unexpectedly stops beating. If this happens, blood stops flowing to the brain and other vital organs.\nIf you find someone unconscious, unresponsive, not breathing or not breathing normally (gasping), they are in sudden cardiac arrest.\nEvery minute without effective treatment reduces that person\u2019s chance of survival by 10%. If you find someone in sudden cardiac arrest, call 999 immediately and start CPR. If an AED is available, use this straight away. The AED will talk you through the rescue.\nIf an SCA victim receives defibrillation in the first minute, the victim\u2019s chance of survival increases to more than 90 percent.\nLess than one in 10 people survive an out of hospital cardiac arrest in the UK. This is partly because bystanders don\u2019t have the skills or confidence to help The concern may be that you could do further harm but the irony is without intervention that person has no chance of survival.\nIf it\u2019s not treated, SCA usually causes death within minutes.\nOften an SCA and heart attack are thought to be the same thing. Although a heart attack can lead on to an SCA if blood flow is restricted long enough, they are both very different.\nA Heart Attack is a \u2018plumbing\u2019 problem whereas a Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) is an \u2018electrical problem.\nA heart attack is caused when the blood supply to the heart is blocked but the heart keeps beating. The patient is conscious, breathing and can be talking but has symptoms such as pains in one or both arms and chest. There are other possible symptoms such as cold sweats, nausea and feeling lightheaded.\nSCA occurs when the heart\u2019s electrical system goes haywire causing an arrhythmia. There are many types of arrhythmias. The arrhythmia that causes an SCA is one where the heart stops pumping blood to the brain and other vital organs. An SCA can happen to anyone regardless of age, fitness, diet.\nYorkshire Ambulance Service \u2018Supporting a nation of Lifesavers Campaign Information Guide\u2019.\nNHS choices \u2013 www.nhs.uk/conditions/Heart-attack/Pages/Introduction.aspx\nBritish Heart Foundation \u2013 www.bhf.org.uk/heart-health/conditions/cardiac-arrest",

        "raw_content": "THE Cardiff Capital Region (CCR) Cabinet today (January 15) agreed to support in principle the \u00a3180million re-development of Cardiff\u2019s main transport hub with \u00a340m of City Deal funding.\nThe proposed Metro Central project will deliver a new Central Transport Interchange at the heart of Cardiff\u2019s city centre Core Employment Zone.\nThe project encompasses a new Central bus station, the modernisation of Cardiff Central train station, and delivery of a range of other transport infrastructure such as a new coach station, a cycle hub and public realm improvements.\nThe aim is to improve the capacity of the Central Interchange to accommodate increased frequency of services delivered through the South Wales Metro investment, and to provide an infrastructure for jobs growth through accelerating investment in Cardiff\u2019s Core Employment Zone.\nA meeting of the CCR Cabinet in Nantgarw today considered a report from Cardiff City Council Leader Councillor Huw Thomas which outlined the plans, as well as a request for funding of \u00a340million.\nThe Cabinet unanimously agreed to allocate the money in principle from the City Deal Investment Fund towards the project to assist with securing match-funding from UK Government, Welsh Government, and the private sector and ultimately to assist with delivery of the project.\nThe in principle decision is subject to further due diligence on the project, the securing of funding from Welsh and UK Governments, and consultation between the Cabinet and the CCR bodies which include the Business Council, the Economic Growth Partnership, and the Regional Transport Authority.\nCllr Andrew Morgan, Chair of the CCR Cabinet, and Leader of Rhondda Cynon Taf County Borough Council, said: \u201cMyself and my fellow Leaders are delighted to offer City Deal support for this transformational project.\n\u201cAnyone who travels into and through Cardiff is very aware of the desperate need for improvements to the transport infrastructure, and the anticipated rapid growth of the capital city means this project is absolutely critical.\n\u201cI think it is important to stress that this a project which will benefit all of the region, particularly if we are to see the introduction of a new 15-minute service between the Valleys main lines and Cardiff under the South Wales Metro plans.\n\u201c85% of Cardiff\u2019s recent job growth arises from an increase in net commuting into the city from adjacent communities, and it is critical this continued growth is supported with the appropriate infrastructure.\u201d\nCardiff is expected to grow faster than any other UK Core City over the next 20 years in terms of population according to Welsh Government and National Statistics projections, with population growth of more than 20 per cent between 2017 and 2037.\nThis expansion is expected to create greater economic opportunities, and will also require job creation to support the growing population.\nCllr Thomas said: \u201c\u201cThere is a compelling and urgent need to make sure that Cardiff Central can accommodate predicted growth in passenger numbers, especially given the role that the Metro will play in spreading the benefits of the City Deal.\n\u201cIt is also crucial that we make sure that Wales can compete as a business location and capture mobile investment. This development represents a vital step towards creating Wales\u2019 first truly internationally competitive business hub, focussed around the nation\u2019s main transport interchange and creating jobs for the whole region.\u201d\nThe agreed Metro Central funding is the second investment to be agreed by the Cabinet since the CCR City Deal was formally signed by the region\u2019s ten local authority partners last March.\nIn May 2017, the Cabinet agreed to contribute \u00a337.9 million from the CCR City Deal\u2019s Wider Investment Fund towards the establishment of a major, cutting edge facility, as an anchor in the region for high end production of compound semiconductors.\ncreate hundreds more jobs in the wider supply chain cluster.",

        "raw_content": "With home prices continuing to be competitive and interest rates low, many people are dipping their toes into the real estate market. Regardless of whether you are a first time home buyer, considering the purchase of a second home or an empty nester looking for a cozy smaller property, it is important to factor in the potential insurance costs of the home you are considering when calculating the overall price of owning the house, according to the Insurance Information Institute (I.I.I.).\n\u201cWhen people look at homes, they tend to focus on factors such as property taxes, neighborhoods, school districts and available recreational and cultural opportunities,\u201d said Jeanne M. Salvatore, senior vice president and consumer spokesperson for the I.I.I. \u201cBut an often overlooked item is the insurance implications of a specific house.\u201d\n\u201cYou will be paying for insurance for as long as you own it, so you should factor the cost of insurance into the home buying process. You don\u2019t want to find out that your dream home is more expensive to insure than you thought after you own it,\u201d pointed out Salvatore.\nWhen looking at prospective new homes, the I.I.I. suggests asking the following questions:\nHow far is the home from the fire department? Houses that are near a fire station with professional firefighters usually cost less to insure.\nWhat is the condition of the plumbing and electrical systems? Poorly maintained, unsafe and/or outdated systems can cost more to insure.\nIs the home vulnerable to wind damage? Find out if private insurance is available, or a state-run insurance program. Is there a windstorm deductible, and how high is it? A home on or near the beach may be more costly to insure than one inland.\nIs the house at risk from flooding? Flood insurance is not covered under a standard homeowners insurance policy. However, it is available from the National Flood Insurance Program, which is serviced by private carriers, and from a few specialty insurers.\nWhat about earthquake risk? Earthquake insurance requires an endorsement or a separate policy.\nIs the house well built and well maintained? Homes built by reputable builders using disaster resistant materials and designed to meet current building codes are likely to better withstand natural disasters.\nA knowledgeable home inspector and your insurance agent can be helpful in answering these questions. \u201cKeep in mind, that the size, location, construction and overall condition of the house can affect the cost, choice and availability of home insurance,\u201d noted Salvatore.\nTo educate consumers about the insurance implication of buying a home, the I.I.I. has created a Home Buyers Insurance Checklist. It provides information on what do before buying a house, factors to consider when looking at homes and placing a bid, as well as tips to properly insure your new home.\nFor related video, go to Before Buying a Home: Insurance Questions Everyone Should Ask.\nSource: Insurance Information Institute (iii.org)",

        "raw_content": "Photo: Sophia Raithel/Cary Institute of Ecosystem Studies\nFive-year effort seeks ways to kill ticks and reduce disease rates in neighborhoods\nThe subjects would have to let researchers onto their yards repeatedly to collect rodents, count ticks and deploy as many as two tick-killing systems.\nThen the residents would have to do homework, reporting how many ticks they encountered and whether they got sick with Lyme disease.\nAll of this would take place repeatedly over five years.\nFelicia Keesing, a Bard College scientist who is co-directing the effort at the Cary Institute of Ecosystems Studies, said she has worked with local residents before and knows how cooperative and invested in solutions they can be.\n\"But this,\" she said, \"is a whole new level of engagement. It's asking a lot more of people.\"\nFour months after the Cary Institute announced the rigorous study, the researchers say they have reached their goal of identifying a dozen Dutchess County neighborhoods with 100 properties each where participation levels will reach as high as 50 percent.\nIn all, 1,100 property owners have agreed to take part, even as recruiting continues. The goal is 1,200.\nAny higher, the researchers say, would be impossible due to the budgetary limitations of the $8.8 million study.\nThe response, Keesing said, has been \"astonishing.\"\nA high response rate is critical for a study scientists hope will identify how to do two things at the same time: Kill ticks and, as a direct result, reduce the rates of tick-borne disease across neighborhoods. The two don't always go hand in hand.\nThe response rate means Dutchess County could become a model for other areas affected by tick-borne disease.\nEarlier this year, a surge in Lyme rates prompted the Village of Fayetteville, near Syracuse, to hire federal sharpshooters to kill white-tailed deer. The village also weighed laws that would make it easier for residents to own chickens, which might then eat the ticks.\nBut studies have shown that small rodents, not deer, play a much more significant role in spreading Lyme disease. And chickens, as well as guinea fowl, are not effective in reducing tick abundance, Keesing said.\nThe Cary study will examine two other possibilities. One is a bait box that attracts mice, chipmunks and other small rodents. When the animals go in, they are sprayed with a tick-killing agent. The critters go on their merry way, but the ticks suffer a more ominous fate.\nThe other method is to spray a naturally-occurring fungus that also spells curtains for the tiny arachnids.\nBoth are safe and commercially available, key factors in the researchers' decision to use them.\nThe study will determine whether disease rates fall when both, or either, of these controls are applied in roughly 50 percent of properties within a neighborhood. The scientists chose neighborhoods with high rates of infection, based on county health data.\nIn 2013, a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention study found no change in Lyme rates at 2,500 residences in Dutchess County, Connecticut and Maryland where yards were sprayed with a pesticide.\nSince ticks can move from one yard to another by way of pets or other wildlife, the Cary scientists believe the best way to reduce disease rates within a certain area is to target the ticks across a neighborhood.\nSome of the work has already begun. Keesing said researchers have begun collecting rodents and counting the number of ticks on them.\n\"We want to figure out how many ticks are on those critters now, before we do anything,\" Keesing said, \"so we can get an idea of the range of variation across the whole study area.\"\nNext August, after the properties have been treated, they will do it again.\nOnly this time, if all goes well, it will be much harder to find ticks.\nFollowing is a list of municipalities and the number of neighborhoods within them that are part of a study aimed at reducing ticks and Lyme disease rates.\nBeacon: 1 neighborhood.\nHyde Park: 4.\nRed Hook: 4.\nRhinebeck: 2.\nPoughkeepsie (town): 8.\nPoughkeepsie (city): 3.\nPine Plains: 1.\nWappinger: 1.",

        "raw_content": "Summer Camp - A Great Russian Tradition\nEvery summer thousands of children head off for camps across Russia, from the shores of Lake Baikal to the beaches of the Black Sea. Each camp has its own philosophy, but all provide children a place to relax while having fun in an outdoor setting. In many ways, these camps resemble those in the United States and Canada. They are usually located in rural settings, miles away from the nearest town. Typically, a camp will have a large dining hall, crafts, sports buildings, and dormitories. Children usually come for sessions lasting 10 to 28 days. Many camp activities take place in the beautiful Russian countryside, often by a lake or river, which provides a glorious setting for swimming, boating and canoeing. Other activities may include theater, land sports, arts, crafts, dance, and the performing arts.\nWork with Russian Children\nYou will be volunteering to work with children, sharing your culture and language while learning theirs as well. In most cases, you will assist wherever needed.\nThe Camp Counselor\nAs a counselor, you are a teacher, a leader and a friend to a group of children between the ages of 7 and 17. You are responsible for the safety and well being of your campers and for giving them the time of their lives! You spend most of the day outdoors. All counselors perform a wide variety of duties and each day brings something new. It's a challenge and one of the most rewarding things you will ever do. By the end of the summer, you will have discovered a lot about the Russian culture and yourself.\nShare Your Culture & Traditions\nBe prepared to share your culture and traditions with the Russian children and counselors. You will be expected to teach English lessons. At some camps this will be done in an informal way through activities, reading, songs, sports, and games. In other camps you may be required to teach English in a more formal, classroom setting. Plan to incorporate cultural lessons throughout the activities you share.\nYou will be able to choose from an 8 week camp or a 4 week camp giving you flexibility and choice for your summer - for more information please email Caity on Caityk@ccusa.com.\nLife as a counselor in Russia is all about releasing the inner adventurer inside of you. It\u2019s delving deep into the realm of the unknown and fully immersing yourself into a new culture.\nRussian Camps offer campers from all backgrounds, the opportunity to learn valuable life skills in a nurturing environment. The children you\u2019ll meet will keep you on your toes around the clock. They\u2019ll look to you for guidance; to teach them, to eat with them, to share living quarters with them and to answer all of their inquisitive questions about everything their eager minds are fascinated by.\nYou need to be open minded to adapt to new customs, traditions and approaches to the summer camp model. Though this program shares similarities to summer camps across America, be prepared to experience all that Russian culture has to offer; from the food & language to their climate & camp locations.\nSummer camp work is demanding, but the rewards are endless. With the right attitude, open mind and a willingness to learn, this will be the most rewarding experience of your life!\nVolunteer at a summer camp in Russia for 4 or 8 weeks between June and August\nBe a camp counselor \u2013 teach children ages 7 to 17\nImmerse yourself in the culture while learning the Russian language\nMeet new people and make friends from cultures and countries all over the world",

        "raw_content": "Bellevue Roof Inspection and Roof Certification\nProfessional Roofing Services in Bellevue, Washington area\nHome Roof Inspection in Bellevue\nHome Roof Certification in Bellevue\nForensic Roof Inspection in Bellevue\nBellevue was founded in 1869 and its name means \u201cbeautiful view\u201d in French. And what a view! Residents in Bellevue need only look outside to see glistening high rises touch the sky with the dark waters of Puget Sound gleaming in the background. But what really makes Bellevue so special is its small town feel so close to Seattle.\nBelleve WA Interesting Facts\nLocated in the Eastside region of Washington\u2019s King County, the 3rd biggest city in the Seattle area, Bellevue is also home to the state\u2019s second biggest city center and is one of Washington\u2019s wealthiest communities. Named in 2008 as CNN Money\u2019s number 1 place to live in the USA, it is also home to the headquarters of numerous big names in business such as Nintendo, Expedia, Microsoft and T-Mobile. The city is home to several well known residents including Wikipedia co-founder Larry Sanger, actor Peter Horton and baseball player Matt Hague. Bellevue is considered an \u201cinternational city\u201d because of its diversity. Bellevue is also one of the top 100 most educated populations in the United States.\nCert-A-Roof offers roof inspection and roof certification in a 30 mile radius around Bellevue, including the cities of Seattle, Mercer Island, Auburn, White Center, Kirkland, Burien, Newcastle, Tukwila, Renton, Shoreline, SeaTac, Lake Forest Park, Redmond, Kingsgate, Kenmore, and Sammamish, WA.\nBellevue Common Roof Type\nRoofing options for this area of the state includes asphalt & asphalt fiberglass shingles, wood shingles and shakes, clay and concrete tile roofing, rubber roofing, composite roofing, metal roofing, corrugated roofing, and flat roofing. One of the most popular roofing materials in Bellevue is asphalt shingles. This cost effective material is ideal as it can be adapted to all shapes and sizes of roof and is even available in a choice of colors to create a unique and attractive appearance. Resilient and robust, asphalt shingles are capable of withstanding storms and high winds effectively while being quick and easy to install. Despite their resilience, it is still important to carry out annual maintenance on an asphalt shingle roof as they are susceptible to damage in fluctuating temperatures and may therefore crack in extreme weather conditions. Other conditions that can affect the roof in Bellevue are the winter storms, snow and high winds.\nBellevue Climate\nBellevue has a mild oceanic climate with frequent rain showers during the period from October to May. August is the hottest month in the city, reaching temperatures of around 76 degrees, while January is the coldest, with an average low of 32 degrees. Over the course of a year, Bellevue receives around 36 inches of precipitation with December being the wettest month.\nIn the 2010 census, Bellevue had a total population of 122,363 people across 50,355 households. Around 30% of households have children aged under 18 and 52% are married couples. The average family size in the city is 2.97 and the average age of the population is 38.5 years, with around a fifth of residents being under 18. The gender divide is roughly equal with 50.1% of the population being male and 49.9% being female.\nThe residents are diverse, with forty-one percent belonging to a minority and children speaking over fifty different languages at school. The population is expected to grow and continue with a trend of diversity.\nBellevue Housing\nThe average house price in Bellevue is $751,300, considerably higher than the national average. Around 30,033 units are occupied by owners in the city which is just over half of the population. The 40% of the population who rent their homes pay an average of $1,451 monthly, which is higher than the average. 85% of homes in the city were constructed later than 1990. Popular residential neighborhoods include Lake Hills, Lochmoor and Woodridge.\nBellevue Festivals, Events, Sites and Attractions\nAside from the large number of public parks, miles of nature trails and public beaches, Bellevue has quite a bit else to do. There\u2019s the Adventura Aerial Adventure Park, the KidsQuest Chidlren\u2019s Museum, and the annual Wintergrass Bluegrass Festival.\nBellevue Arts and Crafts Fair\nBellevue Sculpture Exhibition\nRoof Inspection Services for Bellevue home or business\nLiving in Bellevue is exciting.

This paper studies the application of the e-nose technology in the early fire detection of flammable materials. Based on the brief introduction of the e-nose system and the associated pattern recognition technology, this paper builds a high-throughput flammable material fire simulation platform, and then, with the PVC material of the wires and cables in the electrical equipment which are prone to fire as an example, it detects the volatile substances within the safe operating temperature range (100-180\u00b0C) and at the warning temperature point (200\u00b0C) during the combustion process. In order to verify the anti-interference ability of the platform, this paper selects liquor and cigarette as interferences, which are also subject to detection in the experiment. It uses discriminant function analysis (DFA) and the BP neural network method to perform statistical analysis of the collected data and the results show that both methods have good discriminant effects. At the same time, it also optimizes the sensor array by the load analysis method. Through comparison and analysis, it is found that the eight-sensor array has a better discriminant effect. The research results show that the electronic nose technology can realize the early detection of flammable materials.",

        "title": "Campaign for Freedom of Information \u00bb Coalition government\u2019s proposals to restrict FOI (2012-15)",
        "raw_content": "Coalition government\u2019s proposals to restrict FOI (2012-15)\nIn 2012, the House of Commons Justice Select Committee carried out a major review of the operation of the Freedom of Information Act. Its report \u2018Post-legislative scrutiny of the Freedom of Information Act 2000\u2019 (HC 96-I) described the Act as a \u201csignificant enhancement of our democracy\u201d and rejected the need for any major changes. The government\u2019s response to the Committee in November 2012 nevertheless proposed a series of measures to restrict the Act. The government said its aim was address those who impose a \u2018disproportionate burden\u2019 by making \u2018industrial\u2019 use of the Act. But its proposals were not targeted at people who make excessive use of the Act. They would have made it easier for public authorities to refuse all requests, including those from people making modest use of the Act and raising issues of real public interest.\nThe suggested proposals were:\nto allow the time which officials spend considering a request and redacting exempt information to be taken into account in deciding whether it can be refused on cost grounds;\nto reduce the cost limits themselves (currently \u00a3600 for central government or \u00a3450 for other authorities) to some lower amounts;\nto permit unrelated requests made by one person or group to be refused where these become so frequent as to become \u2018disproportionately burdensome\u2019; and\nto introduce charges for appealing to the Information Rights Tribunal.\nAny one of these would have had a potentially serious impact on the operation of the Act. Together they would have substantially undermined it.\nChanges to the cost limit\nCurrently, authorities can currently refuse a request if the estimated cost of finding and extracting the information exceeds certain limits. The government said it was minded to allow the time they spent considering a request and redacting (deleting) exempt information to also be taken into account in deciding whether a request can be refused on cost grounds. Adding these activities would have allowed many more requests to be refused on cost grounds. Any request involving new, complex or contentious issues would have been at risk of being refused under this proposal, simply because of the consideration time needed to work through unfamiliar issues. The Justice Committee expressly rejected this option agreeing with the Campaign that it was open to abuse (HC 96-I, para 60).\nThe second proposal was that the \u00a3600 and \u00a3450 cost limits should themselves be lowered. Again, this could not be regarded as a measure to deal with disproportionately burdensome requests. It would have applied to all requests. The cost limit is an absolute bar to disclosure based solely on the number of hours of work involved. It takes no account of the public interest in disclosure, however compelling.\nThe third proposal would have allowed unrelated requests from the same individual or group to be aggregated so that all of them could be refused if the total cost exceeded the cost limit. This would have affected the ability of local newspapers, local organisations and even MPs to obtain information on a range of issues from one authority.\nCharges for appeals\nThe government\u2019s response also raised the possibility of charging for appeals to the Information Rights Tribunal. These would have deterred requesters with well-founded cases from appealing against decisions that they would be likely to win and slowed the development of case law.\nHow we opposed these restrictions\nThe Campaign took the lead in opposing these proposals. We argued that the government\u2019s concerns about burdensome requests had already been met. In January 2013 the Upper Tribunal, the top level body dealing with FOI appeals, issued a new ruling that requests which imposed \u2018disproportionate burdens\u2019 could be refused as vexatious. The Information Commissioner\u2019s Office also issued new guidance to this effect. This meant no new measures were necessary to deal with disproportionately burdensome requests.\nThe Campaign held a briefing meeting for campaign organisations, journalists and concerned individuals explaining the implications of the proposals.\nWe met the coalition government\u2019s justice minister Lord McNally, and then Simon Hughes who succeeded him, to explain why we thought the proposals were likely to be so damaging.\nWe wrote to Lord McNally setting out our concerns in detail. Read the letter and Lord McNally\u2019s reply here.\nWe provided a succinct account of the issue for the press.\nWe organised an Early Day Motion \u2013 a parliamentary petition \u2013 calling on the Government to drop the proposals. The motion was tabled by the veteran FOI advocate Sir Richard Shepherd (Con) and supported by an all-party group of MPs: John Healey (Lab), Dr Julian Huppert (Lib Dem), Caroline Lucas (Green), David Winnick (Lab) and Mark Durkan (SDLP). Further information about the EDM is here.\nWe organised a letter to the Prime Minister, signed by 76 press and campaign bodies, opposing the measures.\nThe coalition government said it would decide which options it preferred and consult on them. But by the time the government left office, in May 2015, no consultation paper had been published. The proposals almost certainly remain on the Ministry of Justice\u2019s wish-list and are likely to re-surface.",

        "raw_content": "Suzuki Hayabusa Specs & Parts\nClick here for Suzuki Hayabusa OEM Parts\nSuzuki, the first company to build a \u201cHyper-sport\u201d bike, was way ahead of their time with the invention of the GSX1300R in 1999. Aptly named after the fastest diving bird of prey, (Hayabusa is Japanese for Peregrine Falcon) the Suzuki Hayabusa was the world\u2019s fastest bike manufactured in 1999.\nWhen the first version of the Hayabusa was produced in 1999, it was meant to overpower the then dominant Honda CBR1100XX blackbird, and boy do it do the job. In nature, the Peregrine Falcon hunts down Black Birds with precision and speed, and true to its name-sake, the Hayabusa ate up every other sport bike that was on the track. With its 1299cc, liquid-cooled, sixteen valve, DOHC, 173hp engine, it easily devoured all the competition.\nSome people viewed the body style of the GSX1300R as ugly, but its aero-dynamic full faired body was actually very instrumental in keeping the bike stable at its 180+ mph. However, despite its homely appearance, the Hayabusa became immediately popular and ended being one of the most sold and customized hyper-bikes ever produced. There are considerably more Hayabusas with modified body work and running gear than its Kawasaki ZX14 counterpart.\nIn 2001 Kawasaki and Suzuki reached a gentleman\u2019s agreement to regulate their hyper-sport bikes to not go faster than 186 mph, and in 2001 the Hayabusa had a speed limiter installed to keep their agreement. Other than the speed limiter, the first generation of Hayabusa was produced with very few changes from 1999 until 2007.\nEngine: Liquid-cooled, Four-stroke, Inline-four\nValve Train: DOHC, 16 valves\nWeight: Tank full: 582 lbs.\nClutch: Constant Mesh\nDrive System: Chain, #532\nIn 2008 Suzuki redesigned their beautiful \u201cBusa\u201d to keep up with the performance pressure Kawasaki was putting on the Hyper-bike world with their creation of the ZX14. The first change was to the body work. While it was of course updated to a more modern styling, the biggest change was that Suzuki hid the fairing fasteners for \u2018Busa owners to easily customize their paint schemes.\nThe changes weren\u2019t just for the bodywork though as Suzuki revised the engine internals to boost power and reduce noise and emissions. The 2008 Hayabusa engine received an updated exhaust system, improved heads and pistons, Suzuki Duel Throttle Valve system, (SDTV) Suzuki Clutch Assist, (SCAS) boosted compression ratio, and increased the displacement from 1299cc to 1349cc. The changes increased the GSX1300R\u2019s horse power from 173hp to 197 hp.\nIn 2013 to increase the stopping power of the \u2018Busa, Suzuki upgrade the brake system to Brembo and added ABS as a purchasable option.\nClutch: Slipper Clutch, Constant Mesh\n1999-2007 GSX1300R\n2002-2007 GSX1300RZ",

        "raw_content": "My memorable visit to the historical Jallianwala Bagh in Amritsar, Punjab\nThe historical site of Jallianwala Bagh in Amritsar needs no description. It is the site where thousands of Indians who were peacefully protesting against the British rule were brutally massacred by the British soldiers under the command of General Dyer.\nDuring our family trip to the North last summer, we were thrilled to visit this historical site. As our stay was in a hotel, we refreshed ourselves and reached the site in a cab. It is located in Golden Temple Rd and is daily open for visitors from 6.30 a.m to 7.30 p.m. It's free entry for the visitors.\nAs it was vacation time, the public garden was heavily crowded with visitors in spite of the scorching heat. After getting through the narrow entrance, we entered into the garden and the memorial. This was the large open space before the tragic massacre. On entering inside you can see the huge stone structure which is the war memorial.\nAnd at a short distance from the entrance there is the 'Amar Jyothi' - the continuous flame lit in the memory of those innocent ones who lost their lives in the massacre.\nWe could see / read the incidents on the boards\nWe had a strange feeling on seeing the well into which many innocent Indians including children jumped to save their lives.\nIn the picture below, the opening of the well can be seen.\nAfter walking in the hot weather, we came to the spot where from the firing was made.\nIn the centre of the garden, you can see the brick walls with bullet marks on them that are marked in clearly visible white rectangles.\nWe read the incident in our school textbooks in the classroom which is something different. But visiting the site, going round the sites of historical importance and directly viewing the well into which the innocent ones jumped brings patriotic feeling in every Indian.\nFrom here we walked into the small picture gallery where we could see the paintings of different incidents of the tragedy. It was so touchy on seeing the pictures of different scenes depicting the tragic incidence. We felt like re-reading the historical event which brought tears into our ears.\nIt was so touching when we thought of the pain / sorrow / tragedy of thousands of peaceful protesters on Punjabi's New Year's day on April 13, 1919.\nA memorable visit to this historical public garden, Jallianwala Bagh, brings tears into the eyes of the visitors on knowing about the terrible tragic incident when thousands of innocent / peaceful protesters were thoughtlessly fired at, by the British soldiers.\nAfter going round the bagh, we felt as if we are turning the pages of our history book. I couldn't stop myself saying.\nVande Mataram! Jai Hind!",

        "raw_content": "No landlord ever wants to discover that damage has been caused to their property by a tenant, or to get involved in a dispute with the tenant about who is responsible for paying for the damage.\nThat\u2019s why you may appreciate this quick guide to what to do if your tenant damages your property.\nWhen damage initially occurs\nIn the event of any damage to the furniture or fittings in your property, you should be immediately informed of this by your tenant. You should then be able to discuss arrangements for any repair or replacement, and how this will be paid for.\nIf there is any disagreement about the repair obligations of the respective parties, clarity should be provided in the assured shorthold tenancy (AST) agreement.\nAs well as the tenancy agreement, you can consult the Landlord and Tenant Act 1985 for information on who \u2013 the landlord or tenant \u2013 is responsible for fixing the damage caused to the property.\nIt is Section 11 that addresses the issue of repairs, stating that tenants should:\n\u201cMake good any damage to the property caused by the behaviour or negligence of the tenant, members of his/her household or any other person lawfully visiting or living in the property.\u201d\nThis means that if the tenant or anyone they invited to the property caused the damage, it is the occupant who is legally required to pay for or repair it. So if a visitor to the property spills red wine on the carpet, it is the duty of the tenant to clean or even replace the carpet.\nBut is it actual damage, or just fair wear and tear?\nThis is a vital distinction to make when you are contemplating what to do if your tenant damages your property.\nNot only does the law differentiate between actual damage and what can be regarded as fair wear and tear to a property, but it is also becoming more defined in this regard. This means it is no longer down to your discretion as a landlord to classify what counts as fair wear and tear.\n\u2018Fair wear and tear\u2019 can basically be described as damage that inevitably occurs as a result of the property being lived in \u2013 such as lightly scuffed walls. A tenant can\u2019t be expected to pay for such damage or have any money deducted from their security deposit to foot the bill.\nThis can be differentiated from genuine damage, which is typically considered to be avoidable destruction, or damage that is more than just the result of use. Examples of such damage would include a broken table or a burn in the carpet.\nIt is this latter type of damage for which you are entitled to deduct an amount from the tenant\u2019s deposit or take legal action against them for compensation.\nWhat are the rules for deducting from the deposit?\nYou can use the tenant\u2019s deposit to claim back the cost of damage to your property, missing items, cleaning or unpaid rent. However, you must have a valid reason to keep back part of the deposit, and you are only able to deduct the amount needed to correct the damage, with the rest of it being returned to the tenant.\nYou should also bear in mind that if the tenant denies responsibility for any alleged damage, the tenant deposit scheme with which your tenant\u2019s deposit was secured will ultimately decide the fate of your claim, with any decision being final.\nIf the tenant deposit scheme is forced to make a decision, you will be required to prove that the damage was caused by the tenant, which is where a property inventory \u2013 taken at the beginning of the tenancy \u2013 can be useful.\nThe tenant is also entitled to ask to be shown receipts or estimates for items that have been deducted from the deposit. Furthermore, if the cost of the alleged damage isn\u2019t covered by the deposit alone, you have the option of applying to a county court to file a claim for a larger amount.\nFinally, you\u2019ve also got the option of eviction\nIf the tenant is still living in the property and you\u2019re dissatisfied with any damage caused, you may have sufficient grounds to evict the tenant. However, it\u2019s a good idea to take legal advice in relation to evictions and problem tenants before taking this route.\nBy ensuring that your tenancy agreement clearly states the consequences of any damage to your property and maintaining open communication channels with the tenant, you can help to minimise the likelihood of lengthy disputes and reach a conclusion that is satisfactory to all parties.",

Those were $51 million and $70 million. (AP Photo/Jeff Chiu, File)\nWalmart is banning the woman caught on video using racist language toward other shoppers\nWalmart says it will ban the female shopper who appeared in a viral video viral video telling a Hispanic woman to \"Go back to Mexico\" and calling an African-American woman the N-word.\nOn Monday, Eva Hicks -- who moved to Arkansas 23 years ago from Mexico City, according to Northwest Arkansas News -- posted a video on Facebook of a woman yelling at her in the medicine aisle of an Arkansas Walmart.\n\"Go back wherever you're from,\" the woman said. \"You're in America.\"\nAn African-American woman interjected to defend Hicks, to which the woman replied, \"A [N-word] is calling me ignorant?\"\nLatino woman needs medicine, says \"excuse me\" @WalMart to get it. White woman tells her to leave America then calls another woman \"nigger\" pic.twitter.com/l7j5YBTlWP\nWhat exactly happened before Hicks started taking the video to make the woman so angry is unknown, but as of Thursday, the original post has over 20 million views.\n\"I never in my life thought this would happen to me. Yes me. Just on a simple trip to the grocery store after a hard day of work. I love this country and I will stay in this country. Friends please share,\" Hicks wrote on the Facebook post.\n\"You know what, you kill people with kindness. And I believe in that. Just because I have a different color skin, and I have an accent, and my country of origin isn't the U.S. doesn't mean that you're better than me. I can be here too,\" Hicks told Northwest Arkansas News.\nRandy Hargrove, senior director of Walmart Media Relations, told NBC News said the behavior of the woman was \"unacceptable.\" He also said they have reached out to Hicks with no response, and are trying to identify the African-American woman and the woman who used the racial slurs, who will be banned from all Walmart stores.",

        "raw_content": "The quaint little village of Botrivier is located in the foothills of the Houw Hoek Mountains, on the way to Hermanus. The local Bot River winds through a fertile valley that is encircled by mountains covered with fynbos, historical wine farms and rolling fields of wheat.\nBotrivier is truly a holidaymaker\u2019s delight. It might be a small town, but it is by no means insignificant! This beautiful little gem offers visitors a wonderful vacation full of rest and relaxation. The Bot River flows right through the town and ends up in a large lagoon, which forms a marsh at its mouth. Thousands of waterfowl have made this area their home and one of the last remaining herds of wild horses can still be found roaming through this region.\nBotrivier is perfect for tourists who want to get away from the crowds, especially during whale watching season, but still want to be close enough to civilization for easy access to amenities and viewing opportunities. Botrivier is a marvellous holiday retreat for nature lovers, wine enthusiasts and artists who enjoy the sheer tranquillity and the complete escape from daily life. The picturesque Bot River Wine Route is home to an extensive range of wineries that vary from age old historic cellars to ultra-modern, state of the art facilities, which are all committed to producing original, high quality wines.\nIn the early days the area of Botrivier was inhabited by the Khoi-Khoi tribes who used to travel along the river, because it provided the best grazing for their cattle. The Khoi-Khoi or Hottentot name for the Bot River was Gouga, loosely translated as \u201cabundance of fat\u201d \u2013 which is also the same word they used for butter. Later on around 1672, merchants used to come from the Cape carrying barrels of butter that they used to trade. The river became known as the Botter (butter) River and was later shortened to Bot Rivier.\nDuring June and November the Cape Overberg coastline, also known as the Cape Whale Coast, becomes the playground for the giants of the sea. During mating season these whales travel long distances to come and give birth to their young before the take on the long journey home. This is one of the best times to visit Botrivier. December and January can become busy with locals on holiday, but because of its tranquil setting, any day of the year is a good time to visit.\nA laid back atmosphere\nSmall town tranquillity\nFirst class wine route",

We were greeted and thanked by numerous foreigners on the bridge from countries all across the globe. Early on in the walk a young Turkish woman with head scarf, approached me in tears and thanked us for our effort. Later in the march, numerous women with head coverings from multiple muslim nations showed expressions of solidarity, appreciation and support, as did many others. We converged in the middle of the bridge, as usual, for a silent vigil, and finished our group march with a rally on the SF side, commemorating the victims by reading dozens of the names and ages of the 2,000 + killed in GAZA. As Fred and I returned to the Marin side, I held a sign that said:\"LET IRAQ LIVE\" (alternating with the LET GAZA LIVE side)......a young 13 yr. old boy passed me, walking alone, while clapping his hands in support. I turned and asked him where he was from. \"Kurdistan,\" he said. I asked him where in Kurdistan. \"Iraq,\" he replied.\nThe Golden Gate Bridge is one of the best places to \"Propagate Peace.\" Hundreds of visitors from all around the world come to the bridge. Help us break the silence and show them that \"the people\" say NO WAR! During this somber week, as the US government continues to expand its bombing and drone campaign on the world, more lives continue to be threatened. Syria, Iraq, Somalia, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Yemen. Please join us tomorrow as we continue to break the silence.\nU.S.A.: DON'T BOMB THE WORLD!\n\"You can bomb the world to pieces, but you can't bomb the world to peace.\" - Michael Franti",

        "raw_content": "Moody International identified a need for a group-wide, end-to-end system to meet their business needs. They undertook a study into various off-the-shelf packages and quickly realised that because their business is so diverse it would be impossible to source one product that would suit the entire company.\nThey opted to split their requirements and look for two systems - one for Management System Certification and another for Technical Inspection Services. As a result of their diversity, it was more cost effective to start from scratch and build their own system rather than customising an off-the-shelf package.\nCodify created a bespoke solution called Evolution which is now used by over 650 people in more than 40 countries. It works by:\nManaging all elements of Moody's International's Technical Inspection and Technical Staffing process including contracts, personnel, purchase orders, invoices, assignments and visits\nSupporting their full operational process, from the initial contract through to invoicing\nAs soon as information is added in one country, relevant users in another location can pick that up and progress with the work as soon as possible\nEvolution has brought three key benefits to the company:\nVisibility of data - before, they only had spreadsheets and paper trails with no real ability to get an overall picture of what was happening. The reports now allow them to get the information they need when required, quantifying the information in the system.\nOne central system used throughout all divisions worldwide forced Moody International to take a good look at their processes and to work out exactly what they wanted to do and why. This allowed the standardisation of processes throughout the organisation, removing existing problems.\nAs they own the intellectual property of Evolution, they can roll the software out to as many users as they want with no additional licence costs - with over 650 users, this has saved time and money over any of the alternative off-the-shelf systems.\nMark Peacock, Group CIO, said: \"During the initial stages of the project, we worked closely with Codify to generate a vision and ideas. We would make suggestions and Codify would take them on board whilst also drawing on their past experiences to help us specify exactly what we were looking for.\ninvoicing,spreadsheet problems\nWith over 650 users, this has saved us time and money over any of the potential off-the-shelf systems we reviewed.\u201d\nMark Peacock, Group CIO, Moody International",

The bomb, which was placed by Oberst Von Stauffenberg , exploded two meters to my right. A number of faithful colleagues were seriously wounded. One of them has died. I myself was completely unharmed, except for some small scrapes, bumps, and burns. I see this as an affirmation of the task of Providence to continue to follow the path of my life, as I have done until now. The circle of these conspirators is very small. It has nothing to do with the Wehrmacht or with the German people. It is a small gang of traitorous elements that will now be exterminated mercilessly. I have therefore given orders at this moment that no military authority, no troop commander, and no soldier should follow any command of these exploiters; on the contrary, it is everyone\u2019s duty to arrest anyone who follows these orders or issues them and to immediately neutralize anyone who resists. (\u2026) This time we will deal with these elements in the way that we national socialists are used to.\u2019\nThe executions were filmed on Hitler\u2019s orders. The executioners drank cognac, laughed, and made jokes while Hitler\u2019s enemies died.\nOscar Caminecci, one of the many who was brought to trial, was executed in Flossenb\u00fcrg on 9 March 1944.\nHITLER AT THE PLACE OF THE ASSAULT",

        "raw_content": "Home Plain English Answers Plain English Guide to Seniors Living\nDepending on individual needs, a person may obtain residency in an Aged Care Facility or a Retirement Village, or alternatively they may require Community Care. So what are the differences and what should one consider from a legal point of view?\nThe following Plain English Guide outlines the options available to people and the major issues that may arise in relation to each.\nAged Care Facilities are facilities regulated under the Aged Care Act (Cth) 1997 which are operated by approved providers. The type of care that is provided is ordinarily provided in either Hostels or Nursing Homes.\nIn order to reside in an Aged Care Facility, the person must undergo assessment by an Aged Care Assessment Team (ACAT) to determine the needs of the person and their independence levels. During this assessment, ACAT applies the principles of the Approval of Care Recipients Principals (being principals setting the criteria for eligibility into residential care).\nUpon entering into an Aged Care Facility, the provider will usually require the person to enter into an occupancy agreement under which the person will have to make payment of an Accommodation Payment or pay a daily fee.\nThe Act generally requires occupancy agreements to contain provisions that include (but are not limited to):\nthe facility name, address and other identifying descriptions;\nthe level of care and services which are to be made available;\nfees that are applicable to the care of the resident and policies and practices of the operator;\nthe costs to be incurred by the resident upon permanently vacating the premises/unit;\nwhether there are any respite care arrangements (if applicable);\ncomplaint/dispute resolution arrangements;\ntermination rights;\nservices to be provided by Aged Care Facility; and,\nrights and responsibilities of the resident.\nEach person, having individual needs, should make themselves satisfied that the services available within the Aged Care Facility are sufficient for their needs.\nRetirement Villages in NSW are regulated by the Retirement Village Act (NSW) 1999 (as amended) (the \u2018Retirement Village Act\u2019).\nThe definition of a retirement village within the Retirement Village Act \u2018is a complex containing residential premises that are\u2026predominantly or exclusively occupied, or intended to be predominantly or exclusively occupied, by retired persons who have entered into village contracts with an operator of the complex\u2026\u2019\nThere are various forms of retirement village contracts. These are usually one or a combination of a lease, strata title, loan agreement or occupancy agreement.\nBefore entering into a retirement village contract, the village operator must give to the proposed resident a Disclosure Statement. The form of Disclosure Statement is prescribed under the Retirement Village Act (and its regulations) and generally sets out the nature of services and facilities available at the village, location of nearest hospitals, transport availability, costs when entering and terminating the village contract and many other aspects applicable to the retirement village that may assist in determining whether that retirement village is the right one for the person.\nThe provisions that are usually found within retirement village contracts include (but are not limited to):\nrights and responsibilities of residents;\nobligations of the operator;\ncondition and location of unit/premises and its inclusions, etc;\nfinancial requirements including but not limited to departure fees and recurrent charges;\nwhether the resident is entitled to any proportion of Capital Gain;\ncomplaint/dispute resolution provisions;\nvillage rules/by-laws.\nThe Retirement Village Act also makes provisions for a settling in period and cooling off period. These periods have been implemented into the law to protect the residents and make sure that they have sufficient time to understand the documentation and make sure they have made the right decision to \u2018settle in\u2019 to the village.\nIt is also a common practice for the village owner to appoint a manager to control the day to day operation of the village.\nA person intending to enter into a retirement village should ensure that they are satisfied with the location of the unit, its inclusions, services, and any departure fees together with recurrent charges and the nature of the tenure (eg, lease/strata title). They should also have a sound understanding of the terms and conditions of the village documentation.\nCommunity Care/Family/Friend Dependent\nThe alternative to aged care facilities and/or retirement villages is for a person to apply for community care/support. If a person intends to contract a community care provider to do general jobs around the home, first and foremost they should ensure that the individual is trustworthy and reliable.\nIn the event that the person becomes family/friend dependent, it is very important to realise that there is the possibility that the relationships can become strained over time. The arrangement may also impact on the person\u2019s financial security, particularly if there are underlying illegitimate intentions that have been overshadowed by a need for care.\nHow can Coleman Greig Help?\nIf you, or a family member, find yourself investigating residential options for seniors our specialist team of property lawyers can help to ensure that you have a clear understanding of the best option for you, as well as your rights and your obligations.\nRetirement Village contracts and Aged Care Facility occupancy arrangements can be very complex. Unfortunately when the need arises for someone to enter into such an agreement there can also be a lot of emotion surrounding the decision or health concerns, which can add to the confusion. We can help to de-mystify the process and ensure that the facility or village of choice is indeed the right one for you.\nFor more information, please contact our Retirement Living team in Parramatta, Penrith and Norwest.",

        "raw_content": "2012: Ancient Mayan Calendar and The End of Time Part 3\nContemporary solar physics says that this is not the end of time as we know it. Suns spots climax at 2012. These natural disasters we are experiencing on a global scale are nothing but solar storms and flares. Earth bound data tells us that the earth\u2019s magnetic field is weakening and there is a polar shift going on as we speak. In the last 20 years the poles have migrated 100 miles.\nIs this polar shift a metaphor of a collective consciousness of oneness instead of our current system of dualism and control?, a move away from a mode of culture that dominates and takes?\nWhat we are seeing right now is a sweeping away of the old. We are presiding over this change, it is our own choices and what we do with our own consciousness that will govern whether we make a change for good or evil. 2012 is nothing but media hype, it is the spiritual y2k.\nWhat 2012 is, is a call for us to be aware of the collective and respect the process of life and what is possible and not limited. Not to worry, just be, live healthy and sustainable, live with love.\nWe see it everyday, this bad trip we are on, embody the prophecy, the time is today. Ultimately we are all children on this planet. We need to remove the lines that divide us. We need to stop waiting on someone or something to unite us. We need to unite ourselves, it\u2019s all about human creation and participation in this cosmology.\nThe sky will not fall in 2012, it will open up. People will no longer want their bodies and thoughts controlled . They will want their own direct connection with the universe. These things are happening and they are happening fast. Live with love and enjoy the ride, you live in a marvelous time of human evolution. You won\u2019t read about this shift in the history books. You get to live it.",

Check out this story on commercialappeal.com: https://memne.ws/2qppnhZ\nJohn Beifuss, USA TODAY NETWORK \u2013 Tennessee Published 2:00 p.m. CT April 11, 2018 | Updated 3:08 p.m. CT April 11, 2018\nMemphis actors Brett Trail (left) and Charlie Metz III head the cast of \"I Filmed Your Death.\"(Photo11: Azbest Films)\nA years-in-the-stewing ghoulash \u2014 emphasis on ghoul \u2014 of personal obsessions, real-world horrors, never-say-die determination and Memphis-Connecticut connections, Sam Bahre's debut feature, \"I Filmed Your Death,\" is a labor of love that the moviemaker hopes will become a landmark of terror.\nAlthough its cast is made up largely of relatively unknown human beings, the movie contains a notable Horse \u2014 actor Michael Horse, a resident of David Lynch's \"Twin Peaks\" \u2014 and a famous Monkee \u2014 Peter Tork, the floppy-haired blond member of the so-called Prefab Four. In addition, Bahre recruited a unique subset of subcultural cult heroes to augment what he calls the \"midnight movie vibe\" of the film, which screens at 10 p.m. April 20 and 21 at the Studio on the Square, in a pair of hometown sneak previews with Horse in attendance.\n\"'Eraserhead,' 'Pink Flamingos,' 'Evil Dead,' 'Clerks' \u2014 these are the movies that me and the cast and crew watched throughout the making of our movie,\" said Bahre (pronounced \"bear\"). \"It has 'Cannibal Holocaust' in its DNA, but it also tells a very personable and relatable story.\"\nMemphis/Connecticut filmmaker Sam Bahre hosts his new movie \"I Filmed Your Death\" on April 21 and 22 at the Studio on the Square. (Photo11: Azbest Films)\nBahre originally conceived that story in 2007, which means the 28-year-old writer-director has been chewing over \"I Filmed Your Death\" for his entire adult life.\n\"One of the themes is about mass shootings in our society right now,\" Bahre said. \"It's not the main plot line. It essentially functions in the same way as the murder of Laura Palmer in 'Twin Peaks' \u2014 it's the tragedy that we watch all the characters react to.\"\nThe idea for \"I Filmed Your Death\" came to Bahre when he was in a movie theater and imagined what might happen if a gunman entered the auditorium. (This was five years before the 2012 \"Dark Knight\" shooting in Aurora, Colorado.)\nIn 2008, Bahre shot most of a first version of the film, but that proved to be, essentially, a learning experience: He scrapped the footage and scrapped the script and started over, eventually shooting the movie that screens next week in September and October of 2012, partly in Memphis but mostly in Connecticut. (This method has something of a local precedent: Craig Brewer, too, shot much of a first feature that he abandoned as unworthy before starting over with the entirely different project what would prove to be the foundation of his career, 2000's \"The Poor & Hungry.\")\nBahre was born and raised in Connecticut, where his father, James Bahre, and stepmother, Amy Bahre, still live. He began spending time in Memphis as a young teenager with his remarried mother, Pam O'Brien, who had moved here with her husband, Rick O'Brien, both major supporters of the arts.\nHey, hey, he's a Monkee: Peter Tork stars in \"I Filmed Your Death.\" (Photo11: Azbest Films)\nSam Bahre got an unofficial movie education at the old Black Lodge Video location in Cooper-Young; later, he supplemented that immersive experience with an actual degree from the College of Communication at the University of Memphis. In addition to working on various film projects, last year he had a job with the Sundance Film Festival.\n\"I was at the very first public screening of 'Get Out,'\" Bahre said. \"It was the first time (Jordan Peele) ever saw it with an audience, so there was some pretty crazy energy in there.\"\nMeanwhile, both sets of Bahre's parents were supportive of his ambitions, so when he began shooting \"I Filmed Your Death\" in earnest, he did so in Bolton, Connecticut, where his father had connections.\nSadly more relevant now than when first conceived, thanks to public shootings in such locations as Orlando, Las Vegas and Parkland, Florida, \"I Filmed Your Death\" takes place in a town still reeling from the \"movie theater massacre\" of a year earlier.\nThe film's main character, Pierce (Michael W. Bruce), has made a short film about the tragedy that has angered much of the town, which considers the film tasteless and exploitative. Meanwhile, a new killer is stalking Pierce and his friends. Is there a connection between the old and new killings? Did Jason Voorhees punch a hole through Ron \"Arnold Horshack\" Palillo in \"Friday the 13th Part VI: Jason Lives?\"\nBahre said the timeliness of his film's shooting-related storyline places the film in the long tradition of horror movies that have commented, if sometimes obliquely, on social issues. (For example, \"Night of the Living Dead\" tackles racism and Vietnam.) Said Bahre: \"One of the true powers of horror movies is that they do a good job of contextualizing what's going on in society. They can create an experience where people can deal with their feelings about this issue (mass shootings) in a fictional setting and know they're safe.\"\nNevertheless, Bahre characterized his film as, essentially, \"an amusement park thrill-ride experience,\" inspired by \"the desire to make something like 'Texas Chain Saw Massacre' mixed with 'Clerks,' where there's a lot of talking but then something bad happens. The characters are funny, and what they're saying is funny, but it never bleeds over into the horror. So when something horrifying happens, it isn't a joke.\"\nThe cast includes several Memphis actors in major roles, including veteran indie stalwart Nathan Ross Murphy; Charlie Metz III, of the local Piano Man Pictures production company; and Brett Trail, who fronts The Conspiracy Theory, a rock band. But if \"I Filmed Your Death\" is able to attract much attention in the crowded horror market, it may be because of the cult appeal of its guest stars, who function as totems of authenticity and living good luck charms in the context of this hopeful first feature film.\n\"Twin Peaks\" veteran Michael Horse plays a two-bit demagogue in \"I Filmed Your Death.\" Horse will be in Memphis for the movie's local screenings. (Photo11: Azbest Films)\n\"I wrote the script so at least four of the characters could be celebrities,\" Bahre said. \"Basically, I went down my list of my favorite movies and TV shows and figured out who from those casts could actually be those characters. I got obsessed with them and made it my mission to track them down.\"\nUsing social media and Internet sleuthing methods, Bahre was able to recruit New York's Lloyd Kaufman, the founder of Troma Entertainment, the company responsible for such cult readymades as \"The Toxic Avenger\"; Horse, a stunt man and artist whose career playing Native Americans in the movies began when he was cast as Tonto in the ill-fated 1981 \"The Legend of the Lone Ranger\"; and Tork, ex-member of the still beloved Monkees, who lives in Connecticut, not too far from where Barhe's film was shot. (Horse plays a sort of \"Bill O'Reilly of cable access TV,\" Bahre said, while Tork is a \"fatherly\" former state trooper.)\nMeanwhile, more marginal cult figures have incidental or voice-only cameos. These include musician Merle Allin, brother of the late GG Allin, the shock-punk rocker whose feces-flinging 1991 performance at Memphis' Antenna Club remains infamous; British mime Lindsay Kemp, an actor in the 1973 masterpiece \"The Wicker Man\" who taught mime to David Bowie and choreographed the original \"Ziggy Stardust\" tour; Marc Sheffler, one of the killers in Wes Craven's disturbing \"The Last House on the Left\" (1972); and exploitation star Robert Kerman, whose credits include the notorious Italian stomach-turner \"Cannibal Holocaust\" (1980).\nBahre's Nick Fury-goes-grindhouse recruiting didn't end with the cast. He also managed to get longtime Lou Reed associate Fernando Saunders to contribute to the movie's score; and for his cinematographer, he lured Brian Pryzpek, who has worked on such prestige projects as Michael Almereyda's \"Hamlet.\"\nAlthough the movie scared Sam Bahre so much he destroyed the DVD after his first viewing, \"I Filmed Your Death\" writer-director Bahre and composer David Virone years later made \"a pilgrimage\" to the Connecticut cemetery location of the 1972 film \"The Last House on the Left\" to \"soak in some of the energy\" in preparation for their own horror movie. (Photo11: Sam Bahre)\nFor Bahre, these choices were highly personal. For example, \"Ever since I was about 17 years old, I've had a button with his (Robert Kerman's) face on it, because I love 'Cannibal Holocaust' so much,\" he said.\nSimilarly, \"The Last House on the Left,\" which Bahre first watched on DVD, was \"one of the most impactful movies I've ever seen,\" Bahre said.\n\"I first saw it when I was 12, and after we saw it, my best friend, my brother and I went out and broke it apart with an ax. We were so disturbed by it we had to destroy it.\"\nAs for Horse and Saunders, \"As far as my favorite artists, it definitely goes David Lynch and Lou Reed.\"\nHe said the \"celebrities\" responded to his enthusiasm as well as to his script. \"Peter Tork hadn't acted in anything for almost a decade, so he was so game \u2014 he even came back to do re-shoots. And I feel like Michael Horse loved us. By the time he came on set, we were a family.\"\nMari Lanchester, John Shaw and Nathan Ross Murphy star in \"I Filmed Your Death.\" (Photo11: Azbest Films)\nMost of the shooting took place in a Connecticut farmhouse, while cast and crew shared a nearby cabin for close to 30 days. (For recreation at night, they watched movies projected onto a shower curtain tacked to the outside wall.) An exception was Pryzpek: \"He lived in a tent,\" Bahre said.\nSimilarly, composer David Joseph Virone, a lifelong friend of Bahre's, drove to Memphis from San Diego in an RV and lived in the O'Brien family's driveway for about six months, to write the score.\nBahre was able to make \"I Filmed Your Death\" on a budget he said was $10,000, plus about another $10,000 in post-production: The editing, sound design and painstaking fine-tuning that has taken the director and his collaborators six years to complete, thanks to their other responsbilities. (The digital tuning didn't extend to the gore effects: They were created on set by the late Howard \"Buddy\" Gray of Memphis, who used the name \"H.G. Ray\" on his film credits.)\n\"It's been pretty much a community of me and my family and my friends,\" Bahre said.\nAfter the Studio on the Square screenings, \"I Filmed Your Death\" will be submitted to film festivals and, eventually, shopped around to distributors. Whatever happens, it won't be his only feature film, Bahre said.\n\"All I've wanted to do since I was ten years old was make films\" he said.\n'I FILMED YOUR DEATH'\n10 p.m. Friday, April 20, and 10 p.m. Saturday, April 21\nMalco Studio on the Square, 2105 Court\nIntroduction and post-movie question-and-answer session with director Sam Bahre and actor Michael Horse\nVisit eventbrite.com\nRead or Share this story: https://memne.ws/2qppnhZ",

        "raw_content": "A Win for Same Sex Parents\nAll of us at ConceiveAbilities were thrilled to learn about the landmark ruling recently made by the Connecticut Supreme Court. For the first time, this ruling acknowledges the parentage of a same sex couple, recognizing two men as the legal parents of their twins on the children\u2019s birth certificates. Anthony Raftopol and Shawn Hargon, an American couple living in Hungary, had their twins with the help of an egg donor and surrogate in 2008. Despite the Connecticut Attorney General\u2019s attempt to block the creation of the birth certificate, the high court essentially created a new way by which people may become legal parents. By rejecting a claim that \u201cparentage could only be established through conception, adoption or artificial insemination,\u201d Connecticut\u2019s Supreme Court has made its state one of the best in the country for people to become legal parents. We're hopeful other states follow their lead!

        "raw_content": "Home \u203a Advice \u203a Returning To The Dentist After A Long Break\nWhy you should not feel embarrassed about taking this beneficial step for your oral health.\nWhilst most people do keep up with their regular six monthly appointments at the Confidental Clinic, this is not always the case. Some people cancel an appointment and then don\u2019t rearrange it. Others may even simply not show up for that appointment and may \u2018disappear\u2019 altogether.\nObviously this is not a good thing, but there can be a number of reasons for it. A change in circumstances may make it more difficult to get an appointment at a suitable time, or sometimes, a nervous patient avoids an upcoming procedure and may drop out altogether.\nIn nearly all cases though, if you don\u2019t see a dentist for some time, you will almost certainly pay the price. Instances of decay and gum disease may cause serious oral health issues and tooth loss is a real possibility. Delaying can also lead to more complex and expensive treatments becoming necessary.\nEventually, most people will need to see a dentist again. Sometimes, they will be in so much pain with a toothache that there really isn\u2019t any option. Others may, one day, decide that their teeth are in a poor condition and are unattractive and may wish to correct this. From the perspective of this Clapham dental practice, in either case, patients should not feel embarrassed. We are here to help!\nThe aim of our team of dentists is not to judge you for not seeing a dentist for a long while, but to help you to get your oral health back on track. Naturally, once this has been achieved, we will encourage you not to let your regular appointments slip again. There is little point in having your teeth restored if you are going to neglect them again.\nFor those patients who have not been to a dentist for a very long time, you are likely to notice a real difference in what our dental practice can offer. Technology now allows us to treat a wider range of issues than was once the case. Modern orthodontics, for instance, can now perform the same function as traditional and highly visible metal braces. This enables people to straighten their teeth without the need for unsightly metal braces.\nFor those who are returning to the dentist for the first time in a while due to their dental phobia, don\u2019t worry. We are sure that you will soon feel more relaxed in our friendly Clapham practice. We even offer help for nervous dental patients in order to enable them to have any necessary treatment to restore their teeth. You may well find that after you have had this help and felt comfortable, you may find your confidence in our team of dentists builds to a point where you don\u2019t require special support or treatments such as sedation in subsequent visits.\nAbove all, no patient should feel ashamed that they haven\u2019t been to a dentist for a long time. To paraphrase an old saying \u2018the first step is the most important on your journey\u2019. Taking the first step to call us for an appointment can only help you to have better oral health. So why not take your first step today by calling us on 020 7801 9060?\n\u2039 Veganuary And Dry January\nSame Day Dental Implant Placement \u203a",

        "title": "Thanksgiving 1943: US sailors pull off a miraculous naval victory - Conservative Review",
        "raw_content": "Thanksgiving 1943: US sailors pull off a miraculous naval victory\nHans von Spakovsky \u00b7 November 23, 2016\nUS Naval Historical Photo\nAs we celebrate Thanksgiving with our families and loved ones, let us remember the American sailors who 73 years ago spent their Thanksgiving fighting a Japanese task force off Cape St. George in the Solomon Islands.\nIn what could be considered a Thanksgiving miracle, not a single American life was lost \u2014 something worth giving thanks for still today.\nThe Solomon Islands lie to the east of Papua New Guinea and were the site of numerous decisive battles during World War II, including Guadalcanal. On Nov. 1, 1943, the American 3rd Marine Division launched an invasion of Bougainville, some 250 miles southeast of a major Japanese military base at Rabaul, New Britain.\nThe Japanese commanders at Rabaul dispatched a five-ship convoy \u2014 part of what was known as the Tokyo Express \u2014 with additional army troops to reinforce their air base on Buka Island, just north of Bougainville, and evacuate their naval personnel. The convoy consisted of two destroyers and three destroyer-transports.\nOn the day before Thanksgiving, American Admiral William \u201cBull\u201d Halsey ordered Captain Arleigh \u201c31-Knot\u201d Burke \u2014 who eventually became Admiral Burke, the chief of naval operations \u2014 to stop the Japanese reinforcements, using Burke\u2019s five-ship destroyer squadron to intercept the Japanese convoy. Burke had assumed command of 7th Fleet Destroyer Squadron 23 (nicknamed the \u201cLittle Beavers\u201d) only a month before. \u201cLittle Beavers\u201d was a reference to the sidekick of Red Ryder, a tough cowboy who was the hero of a very popular Western comic strip that had started in 1938.\nWhen he received Halsey\u2019s order, Burke was hundreds of miles away, taking on fuel at New Georgia Island. The destroyers that made up his small fleet \u2014 the Charles Ausburne (Burke\u2019s ship), Claxton, Dyson, Converse, and Spence \u2014 had been in almost continuous battles for several months and were badly in need of maintenance.\nBecause of that, Burke\u2019s ship was capable of only 31 knots, not its maximum speed of 38 knots. A message from Admiral Halsey gave Burke his nickname: \u201cTHIRTY-ONE KNOT BURKE GET ATHWART THE BUKA-RABAUL EVACUATION LINE \u2026 IF ENEMY CONTACTED YOU KNOW WHAT TO DO.\u201d\nBurke and his task force sped north to try to find and destroy the Japanese task force. They found what they were looking for not long after midnight on Thanksgiving Day, Nov. 25, 1943, when they encountered two of the Japanese destroyers, the Makinami and the Onami.\nLong after the naval battle, Admiral Burke said that \u201cthere may have been blacker nights than Thanksgiving Eve, 1943, in the South Pacific, but none could have been more completely blacked out with regard to information of the enemy.\u201d But Burke also said that it was \u201can ideal night for a nice, quiet torpedo attack.\u201d Using their relatively new radar technology on the moonless, dark, overcast night, Burke\u2019s squadron fired more than a dozen torpedoes and sank both ships, finishing off one of the Japanese destroyers with surface guns.\nThe chase was then on to catch the fleeing destroyer-transports. Burke\u2019s task force caught up with the Yuguri, sinking it and damaging the Uzuki, although the Uzuki managed to escape with the last Japanese ship, the Amagiri. It was the Amagiri that had collided with PT-109, the boat skippered by Lt. John F. Kennedy, on August 1, 1943.\nTrying to catch the fleeing Uzuki and the Amagiri, Burke went deep into Japanese-held territory \u2014 far beyond the reach of American air cover. With the onset of dawn and the possibility of massed attacks by Japanese aircraft, Burke wisely ended the chase and withdrew.\nAs the task force headed back to an American Navy base in Purvis Bay, another 350 miles southeast of Bougainville, Thanksgiving was on everyone\u2019s mind. Burke sent a message asking that Thanksgiving services be arranged for \u201call hands on arrival.\u201d\nNot a single American sailor was killed. Gunfire from the Japanese destroyers had all missed. A Japanese torpedo that hit one of the American destroyers didn\u2019t explode. A group of torpedoes fired by the Japanese exploded in the wakes of Burke\u2019s destroyers after he had a gut feeling that he should change position. And when Destroyer Squadron 23 withdrew, not a single plane from the four Japanese airbases in the vicinity of Rabaul (58 bombers and 145 fighters) attacked the task force.\nIt was either luck or a series of miracles, or a combination of both.\nBurke\u2019s strategy and tactics, and the performance of his sailors, led to the Naval War College calling the Battle of Cape St. George \u201can almost perfect surface action.\u201d Bull Halsey called it the \u201cTrafalgar of the Pacific.\u201d It ended the Tokyo Express, the Japanese naval convoys that were used to supply Japanese land forces and attack Allied military efforts in the Solomon Islands.\nBull Halsey once famously said that \u201cthere are no great men; just great challenges that ordinary men, out of necessity, are forced by circumstances to meet.\u201d The Battle of Cape St. George was one of those great challenges that, out of necessity, Captain Arleigh Burke and the hundreds of American sailors who served under him were forced to meet.\nThey did so with the gallantry and can-do attitude that has long been a hallmark of the U.S. Navy. Burke himself told his sailors that they had been successful because of their \u201ccourage and valiant determination,\u201d and when they got safely to port, his \u201cbattle-weary crews [gave] thanks to God for their victory \u2013 and for their deliverance.\u201d\nSo as you sit down to eat that great American bird (which Benjamin Franklin thought should be our national symbol instead of the eagle), with stuffing, mashed potatoes, cranberry relish, and whatever other goodies your family includes, give thanks for those American sailors who nearly eight decades ago spent Thanksgiving risking their lives to protect our nation in a fight with a merciless enemy. We owe them more than we can ever say.\nAuthor: Hans von Spakovsky",

        "raw_content": "RBI's Monthly Bulletin For December 2017\nDec 11, 2017: The Reserve Bank of India today released the December 2017 issue of its monthly Bulletin. The Bulletin includes fifth Bi-monthly Monetary Policy Statement for the Year 2017-18, Resolution of the Monetary Policy Committee (MPC), Reserve Bank of India, Speeches by the Top Management, Two Articles, Current Statistics, and Indicative Calendar for Bulletin Articles, 2018. The two articles are: I. Anatomy of India\u2019s External Debt: Assessment of Key Trends; and II. Survey on International Trade in Banking Services: 2016-17.\nI. Anatomy of India\u2019s External Debt: Assessment of Key Trends\nThe article provides a snapshot of the developments relating to India\u2019s external debt in 2016-17 and assesses its changing profile since the early 1990s.\nMajor highlights of the article are as follows:\nIndia\u2019s external debt stock was placed at US$ 471.9 billion at end-March 2017, recording an annual decline for the first time after 2001-02.\nShort-term debt by residual maturity decreased from US$ 206.9 billion (42.7 per cent of total external debt, and 57.4 per cent of foreign exchange reserves) at end-March 2016 to US$ 195.9 billion (41.5 per cent of total external debt, and 52.9 per cent of foreign exchange reserves) at end-March 2017, due to large scale repayment of FCNR(B) deposits raised by banks under a special swap scheme during September to November 2013.\nIn post-economic reforms period, India\u2019s external indebtedness exhibited compositional shift from government to non-government debt, and from concessional to non-concessional debt; there has been a rapid rise in short-term debt (by original maturity) since mid-2000s, with trade credit debt being the fastest growing component.\nIndia\u2019s external debt service ratio remains far modest relative to the 1990s.\nIn terms of external debt to GDP ratio, India\u2019s position is better than its peer emerging market economies (EMEs) such as Brazil, Russia, South Africa, Mexico, Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand.\nII. Survey on International Trade in Banking Services: 2016-17.\nThis article provides information on international trade in banking services (ITBS) pertaining to overseas branches/subsidiaries of Indian banks and foreign banks operating in India. It is based on 2016-17 round of the annual ITBS survey, which covered 192 overseas branches, 325 overseas subsidiaries of Indian banks and 286 branches of foreign banks operating in India. The survey collects information on the profile of their fund/non-fund based business as well as income, expenditure and profitability.\nThe number of branches and employees of foreign banks in India declined during 2016-17 whereas there was a marginal increase in overseas branches of Indian banks.\nConsolidated balance sheet of all bank-groups with cross-border presence (viz., overseas branches and subsidiaries of Indian banks and foreign banks operating in India) shrunk in 2016-17, reflecting the moderate level of global economic activities.\nCredit extended by all bank groups declined during 2016-17 whereas deposit mobilisation increased marginally for foreign banks in India but deteriorated for the other two categories of banks.\nLower interest income of overseas branches of Indian banks resulted in decline in their total income in 2016-17 despite a rise in fee income, and their expenditure exceeded income during the year.\nProfitability ratio improved for foreign banks operating in India due to higher increase in non-interest income whereas it plummeted for overseas branches and subsidiaries of Indian banks.\nThe data relating to the results of Survey on International Trade in Banking Services: 2016-17 were earlier released on the RBI website vide Press release No. 1207/2017-18 on November 1, 2017.\nTags: RBI Monthly Bulletins",

        "title": "COMMEMORATIVE PLAQUE - Corte Madera Memories",
        "raw_content": "CORTE MADERA'S COMMEMORATIVE PLAQUE,\nDESIGNED AND CARVED BY JACK HAEHL IN 1976\nForty years ago, when our nation celebrated its BiCentennial in 1976, every town, city, county, and state in America was encouraged to participate by celebrating its own history in some special way. Corte Madera responded by forming the Corte Madera Heritage & History Group (CMH&HG) as a 501 (c) (3) nonprofit charitable organization whose mission was to research and assemble all the stories, photographs, and other materials that could document our town's history. Led by Gerrie Griffith Reichard, volunteers collected hundreds of photographs and numerous histories written by various people, and also onducted their own research to sort out the sometimes conflicting versions of local history. This archival collection, which was later turned over to the Corte Madera Community Foundation, was edited and published in a book, A History of Corte Madera, in 2002.\nMeanwhile, back in 1976, the California Redwood Association gave each city and town in Marin County a large, thick section of heart redwood from an ancient tree in Northern California for the purpose of creating a commemorative plaque that represented their own community\u2019s local history. Corte Madera\u2019s plaque was designed and carved by Jack Haehl, who included iconic scenes from historic photographs of the town and its early settlers.\nAll of the commemorative plaques were permanently installed high on a wall in the foyer of the Marin County Civic Center Auditorium, where they can be seen today. Unfortunately, at some point, the facilities manager approved putting a dark stain on the beautiful, warm, natural redwood, and it obliterated the fine shadow patterns that made the carving stand out. Corte Madera's plaque is also positioned where it doesn't get adequate lighting. The photographs shown below, taken before the plaque was moved to the Civic Center, show close-up views of the plaque at the time it was carved in 1976. A clipping that shows the plaque as a whole, along with a narrative explanation of the various iconic images on the plaque, follows at the bottom of the photographs.\nNARRATIVE EXPLANATION OF THE ICONIC IMAGES IN THE COMMEMORATIVE PLAQUE - 1976\nCorte Madera 's commemorative plaque was designed and carved by Jack Haehl, a teacher in the Terra Linda High School art department and a thirteen-year resident of Corte Madera. Haehl, who donated his work to the town, has had several major sculptural commissions, including the 18-ft. redwood chancel cross in the First Presbyterian Church of San Rafael and a wall relief for United California Bank in San Francisco. For the past four years Haehl has also been the crafts coordinator for the Marin County Fair.\nThe large 22\" x 72\" x 2\" slab of redwood used in the carving of this historical plaque was donated to the Marin Bicentennial Com\u00admission by the California Redwood Association. It is old-growth, clear, all-heart redwood harvested in Humboldt County, and a count of the rings (dark grain lines) shows that at least 500 years went into the growth of the tree. Redwoods of this size and age were also found in the Corte Madera area during the early part of the nineteenth century.\nThe dates and symbol on the right side of the plaque relate to the grain lines depicting the approximate times certain historic events occurred relative to the life of the particular redwood tree from which this wood was cut. Since the grains are closer together when the tree is young, the wood nearest the center of the tree 'compresses ' these time periods, as can be seen at the bottom, where the year 1492 marks the discovery of America by Columbus in his ship, the Santa Maria. The next mark represents the year 1579, when Sir Francis Drake, on the Golden Hinde, claimed this area for England. The American Revolution of 1776 is marked, as is our country's centennial in 1876. As the redwood tree grew older and larger the grain lines or rings were farther apart, and the sixty years between the incorporation of Corte Madera in 1916 and the present time are clearly marked.\nThe father and child who are pictured atop a hill overlooking Corte Madera are thought to be gazing beyond the present-day town with its orderly streets and modern homes into the past history of the community as represented by symbols of its colorful and interesting heritage. The various elements of the plaque are set into a background depicting Corte Madera\u2018s magnificent natural setting within a series of ridges sloping down to the bay, with Mt. Tamalpais rising majestically behind the town.\nThe first inhabitants of the place were the Miwok Indians who for centuries populated the fertile lands where the foothills swept across the marshes. These indigenous clam-diggers gave way in the early 1800's to the Spanish colonists who established missions and fortifications in Marin. Spain lost its hold on California in 1822 and within a few years the Mexican government began turning over vast holdings of mission lands to private citizens whose service to the Mexican republic had earned them sizable grants.The Miwok population was decimated by exposure to diseases brought in by foreigners, and the native Miwoks were eventually wiped out altogether.\nAncient groves of redwoods on the slopes of the ridges provided colonists with a wealth of timber, which was cut to build a presidio guarding the entrance to San Francisco Bay. Forest giants with trunks as much as five feet in diameter were later felled and dragged by oxen to the banks of Corte Madera Creek, where they were shipped across the bay to a small settlement still known as Yerba Buena. The area was called Rancho Corte Madera del Presidio, meaning the place where wood was cut for the presidio.\nThe first land grant north of San \u00b7Francisco was made to a dynamic young Irishman, John Reed, who obtained one league (nine square miles) extending from Raccoon Straits to Arroyo Holon, in an area known today as Baltimore Canyon. In Mill Valley, Reed built the first sawmill in California and supplied the presidio with cordwood and lumber. His marriage to Hilaria Sanchez, daughter of the commandante of the presidio, came at the beginning of an era that made ranchero life legendary.\nHilaria Sanchez Reed was widowed at an early age, but she and her four children valiantly confronted the struggles resulting from California 's occupation by Fremont' s armies. Statehood brought changes in property laws that clouded certain Mexican land grant titles and Hilaria Reed lost the lands lying west of Alto Hill and San Clemente Creek, lands thereafter known as the \u2018Reed Sobrantes ' or \u2018Reed leftovers '.\n160-acre sections of this land were claimed under the National Homestead Act by settlers who took up farming and ranching, only to find that San Francisco speculators had obtained quit\u00adclaim deeds to their property from the Widow Reed after she had successfully asserted her rights before the U .S. Lands Commission in 1854.\nThese land speculators, Coleman, Forbes and Valentine, took all the homesteaders through prolonged litigation in an effort to force them off the land. While some settlers were able to purchase quitclaim deeds from the speculators, others could not, although a record of each claim still exists to show the location of the early homesteads.\nOne settler whose heirs finally obtained title to their old 'Owl 's Wood' homestead for $2000 in gold was Captain John L. Von Reynegom from Philadelphia, who brought his sailing ship, the Linda, around Cape Horn in 1848 only to have all his hands skip overboard in a rush to the gold country. Left aboard with his wife and his daughter, Amelia, Von Reynegom beached his ship near Corte Madera and staked a claim for 160 acres between Mt. Tamalpais and the bay, which he called Owl's Wood. The old town of Corte Madera was founded on the lands of Owl 's Wood many years later.\nThe captain 's daughter, Amelia, was soon swept off her feet by a prominent young San Francisco attorney, Frank Morrison Pixley. After coming west from New York by wagon train in 1848, Pixley launched a career that was to lead historians to write, \"Pixley probably exerted a more commanding influence upon the public mind of California in his time than any other man.\" During vigilante days Pixley served as San Francisco city attorney and went on to the state assembly and the office of state attorney general during the Civil War.\nAlthough the Pixleys lived in a fashionable mansion in Cow Hollow, they retreated often to the tranquility and ambience of Owl 's Wood, where Pixley summoned the muse that led to his founding a literary magazine, the San Francisco Argonaut, that carried the writings of Mark Twain and Ambrose Bierce among others. Pixley created a gentleman 's country estate out of his father-in-law's homestead and acquired an adjoining 30-acre property known today as Christmas Tree Hill.\nThe coming of the railroad in 1894 marked the beginning of what we know today as Corte Madera. Chinese laborers cut a tunnel underneath Corte Madera Ridge, opening the way for hundreds of San Franciscans to enjoy the sunshine and balmy breezes on weekends. Vacation cottages soon dotted the slopes within easy walking distance from the railroad station and, within a few years, roads and 'villa homesites 'were laid out in the hills.\nThe area around the train station was soon a bustling center of activity complete with a three-story hotel, a livery stable, and a post office--buildings which exist in the Village Square to this day. An early picture of the square shows crowds of people arrayed to greet friends arriving from the city via ferry and train, children come to share the excitement of the shiny black steam locomotive chugging to a whistling stop, and entrepreneurs offering lots on the hill for as low as $1 per week.\nOne of the first community projects was the building of churches, one Episcopal and one Presbyterian, on land donated by the Pixley family. Holy Innocents, with its grand old evergreen tree, which has long marked the Christmas season with colored lights, stands prominently to this day in the Village Square.\nFor generations, Corte Maderans shopped at Buckley & Company, the grocery store extraordinaire, located in the former livery stable building now known as Corte Madera Hardware. From 1911 until 1957 Mert Bain and his sister-in-law, Eda Nagel, served the families of the town. Mert Bain himself made deliveries each morning, first with a familiar horse and wagon, later with an International Harvester truck with a shining brass nameplate.\nA vivid picture of Corte Madera in its formative years is found in the eighteen issues of \"The Booster \" published in 1913-14 by the Corte Madera Improvement Club, describing the individuals and organizations who made their mark in the growth of a community character and identity during the years just before incorporation . The scroll-like borders of the plaque are patterned after the scrolls decorating the covers of \"The Booster\u201d.\nCommunity needs were overseen by elected directors \u00b7of the sanitary district, fire commission, and school board, as well as by the many public-spirited citizens who comprised the Corte Madera Improvement Club, the Women\u2019s Club, and the growing business community. Amenities such as street lights and paving were provided by an endless series of festive fund-raising 'socializers' and the community's motto was \"Pull Together, Boost Together, Stick Together\u201d.\nA vigorous volunteer fire department was formed in 1908 and provided fire protection with two hosecarts and a chemical engine. Corte Madera 's first fire truck was a small Chevrolet Pope Hartford, pictured with men of the fire brigade in front of Engine House #1 in 1913. A bond issue was approved by voters in 1928 for purchase of an American LaFrance 500 gpm pumper--the pride and glory of the volunteer department for years.\nMarin County 's second schoolhouse was built in Corte Madera in 1872 and the building is still is use today as a private home. The old Larkspur-Corte Madera School that replaced it was built on the cornfields of Owl\u2019s Wood in 1908. Pictures from that era show it standing grandly alone in the empty vale between Corte Madera Ridge and Palm Hill, an imposing two-story frame structure topped by a bell tower and surrounded by a picket fence.\nOne boy who, in the early part of the century, took his swing at bat for the camera, was Lloyd Rea, son of Louis and Louise Rea who owned the old hotel and Rea's Pavilion, where community get-togethers were held and weekly movies shown. Lloyd represents the generations of children who have grown up in Corte Madera, enjoying the sports and recreation programs that have long been an important part of community life. The foresight and hard work of the townspeople in providing a beautiful town park where such activities can take place is noted by the children shown at play.\nMeadowsweet Farms Dairy, where the best dairy cows in Marin were said to produce milk of unsurpassed quality, brought visitors from other parts of the country just to see the exceptional operation developed by Frank Keever, who devised an ingenious system of floodgates to drain the marshes below Meadowsweet for pastureland. Years later, Charlotte Tobler Conow, who had raised her family here in the early days, converted the old dairy building into apartments. The property now houses the Meadowsweet School. A charming 1919-era photograph of Charlotte with her cow, Daisy, was incorporated into the Meadowsweet Farms scene.\nIf the coming of the railroad brought one great change to Corte Madera, enabling hundreds of San Franciscans to make an easy commute from their new homesites here to their work in the city following the wake of the great earthquake, then the second great change must be attributed to the construction of the Golden Gate Bridge that brought a post-war influx of people seeking homesites where orchards and pastures stood.\nA final note: The aspects of Corte Madera history incorporated into this commemorative plaque comprise only a few of those that might well have been included .\nLimitations inherent in any work of this sort mean that many people, places and episodes are left out, which should in no case be interpreted to mean that the contributions of some were necessarily more meaningful than others .\nThe entertwining of all the forces which people and events. and nature itself weave into the flow of time and place becomes a part of the heritage of all those who come after, and this is as it should be.\nJACK HAEHL - 1976",

One day we woke up and found out we were poor white trash.\nI was 3 years old, and my parents took me to see Annie at the Showboat dinner theater. I immediately fell in love with Annie, fell in love with the music, and I thought, Oh, I can do that and I can do that better.\nI moved to New York City in 2002 after college and thought I wanted to do musical theater. I had studied advertising and got a sales job and climbed the corporate ladder pretty quick and became obsessed with paying off debt. Because I grew up so poor, I chose advertising over theater, but I did community theater productions. I guess I thought it was going to be really easy to come to New York City, not realizing the people I was competing against had 15 years of voice lessons and all this stuff. It was a little bit of a reality check.\nI had gotten a job as a singing waitress. After about a year of singing waitressing, you kind of want to kill yourself. Me and my fellow waiters were looking at Backstage, and there was one of those stand-up comedy shows where you bring people and perform. So I did it. The owner happened to be there. He said, \"You're really good. Do you want to come back tonight and do the late show?\" So I started doing stand-up shows. My first routine was all about how I lost my virginity. I've always been infatuated with sexuality.\n[The sexual education I had] was creepy. It was either not there at all or it came at a time you didn't want to hear it. My first sexual memory is getting caught at the age of 3 or 4 dry humping a pillow, and getting shamed for that so much. I remember my grandfather had just died and my mother was like, \"You know Nonno is watching you do that.\" That is just horrifying.\nAs far as sexual memories with another human being, I had a friend and she was a couple years older. She was like, \"Do you know that movie Purple Rain? Let's act out one of the scenes.\" I said, \"OK, cool.\" I think, whether they talk about it or not, most girls have that dry-humping friend that they keep for a while. My dry-humping friend was a little older, so when she discovered boys before I did, I was kind of left out in the cold.\nNow I'm dating someone I dated 10 years ago. He's the third person I ever slept with. When I dated him, it was really a case of no-expectations dating. My friends knew of him, and they were like, \"He is trouble. He's a bad boy.\" When I met him, I said, \"You're my property now.\" I was playing this very Dr. Alex-y kind of character. I just wanted him. It was the first time in my life that I wanted to just sleep with somebody and wanted to laugh with someone and just didn't want a relationship. He called me the next day, and he was like, \"Ever been in Lubbock, Texas? I'm making money for the first time in my life. What if I fly you out here?\" He's an audio engineer and was leaving to go on tour. So basically every two weeks, he'd fly me to a new city and we'd have some awesome adventure. I thought he was a whore and wasn't invested, so I acted like I didn't care but I was madly in love with him. I never said it. He never said it. We had a misunderstanding in the last city I went to see him. When I left, I never called him again and he never called me. Then Facebook came about and he friended me. [When I saw him again], it was instant chemistry. I remember thinking, Oh fuck, the second he walked in. Since that night we've been together. After the relationship with my boyfriend started again, I realized that a lot of the Dr. Alex philosophy started with that first relationship with him. So much of what's in that book, I began to learn 10 years ago on those trips.\nI did stand-up for a while, then thought, Why not put on my own shows? I liked the idea of an evangelical show, an apocalypse show, an idea that if the world ends when this show ends, what would you do? What's your biggest regret? Also I was going to the theater a lot and seeing that people really wanted to connect. You see people in the audience and you know they're single but they're just sitting there staring straight ahead. I've always created characters that I wanted the audience to believe in. Dr. Alex is actually giving real advice. People know she's a character, but they respond to her as if she's real.\nI created the show and the concepts, and from the first one, it was an immediate hit. Her look was always the same. She is like Tony Robbins meets Suze Orman meets a dominatrix, but the Southern accent really disarms her. The show is very much like being at a mega church. There's that sort of mass hypnosis that goes on. I make people hold hands. I don't give people a choice. Because they hand themselves over to her, they lose their fear. They're having to do what she says, so there's no fear of rejection, and it's all in good fun. Why not be open and awesome and fun? I tell people to dress up. Don't come here looking ugly. They see the attention they get on the subway on the way there, they see how different they feel, they see how the people at the after-party respond to them. I think that's why it was such a big hit.\nEverything in Dr. Alex's book I 100 percent believe. I'm not trying to pull the wool over anyone's eyes. A lot of sex and dating coaches come to my show. In the beginning, I Googled everyone's name on the ticket list. I think a lot of them came because they were like, \"What the hell is this chick doing, and why is she getting more press than I am?\" A lot of them send clients to the show now. No one's ever outwardly criticized me. I think people were cool with it and respect it.\nI have life-coaching clients now. Ethically I was kind of weirded out about it at first because people were calling to say they wanted to work with me and I had to say, \"I'm not a professional.\" And they would say, \"I know, but the advice is good and what you're saying is good and the kind of lifestyle you're promoting is good and I need help with that.\" I see private clients. I'm OK with it because if it gets to the point where they have an actual psychological issue, I say, \"I can't help you with this. You were sexually abused as a child, I think you need real help with that.\" I can help you make over your apartment. I can overhaul your online dating profile if you insist on online dating \u2014 which I'm kind of against. I hate online dating because it creates the illusion of infinite options and causes people to waste hours online trying to \"do better\" rather than spending their time in the real world trying to be better.\nI always wanted to go to Italy because I'd seen Under the Tuscan Sun and all those movies, and I'd always assumed it would be beautiful. I went with my boyfriend at the time, and the second I got off the plane, I was in love with Italy. It's just a brilliant example of man and nature working together to create something greater than itself. When I got to Naples though, I felt like I found the Italy that was always in my fantasy. Everybody sings, and they are gorgeous. I feel like when someone shows you an Italian hunk, he must have Neapolitan blood. The women are beautiful too. Everybody is just funny and theatrical.\nWhen I was there, I was in an open relationship. My first night there, I was actually with him. I remember being there with him but wanting to be alone. I wanted that city for myself. I fell in love with that city the way you fall in love with a human being and you do not want to share it. We were in Germany and we were getting ready to come back to NYC and I said to him, \"I'm sorry, but I'm going to finish my book in Naples.\"\nEven that first week, everyone was so interested in the fact that (1) I was a woman traveling alone and (2) I was a sex doctor. I started going out in costume. That's when I started the blog. I think some people thought I was a prostitute. [Ed. note: Roslyn now lives part time in Naples, Italy, and a blog post Dr. Alex wrote titled, \"Have a vagina? Want to use it? Go to Naples\" went viral.]\nThe voice of Dr. Alex is a clear, strong voice. We only get one life, and we should be allowed to live it exactly as we want. Tomorrow, your genitals could turn to dust. You really should not waste one moment of your life not living it the way you want to. Live your life as though you are the star of your own movie. Be open and have no expectations. That's the hardest one for people to do. But if you can do that, then you'll be fine. The only way to stop having expectations is to start having more experiences. You cannot just read the book. That's the problem with self-help. You've got to go out and live the book. I really think the important thing is it's now or never.\nYou can see Roslyn perform as Dr. Alex in New York on May 16 at Joe's Pub.\n\"Sex Work\" is a weekly series that profiles women who have careers in sex-related industries \u2014 from porn stars to sex researchers and everyone in between.

        "title": "Georgian Charm in Cumbria - Country Life",
        "raw_content": "Georgian Charm in Cumbria\nIn the early 19th century, an ecstatic John Ruskin described the Lune Valley, seen from the heights near Kirkby Lonsdale in south Cumbria, as ?one of the loveliest scenes in England?. Following the course of the river southwards, his eye would have lit on a grand Georgian mansion set among trees, two miles downstream.\nThis was Burrow Hall , built on the site of a Roman fort in 1740, and still considered one of the finest early-Georgian houses to be found anywhere in the north of England. Now, following an intensive 10-year restoration programme, the historic Hall, listed Grade I, with its idyllic 205-acre estate, is for sale through Savills (020?7499 8644) and Davis & Bowring (015242 71711) at a guide price of \u00a33.5 million.\nIn the 13th century, the estate was owned by the De Burgh family, before passing to the Tunstalls of nearby Thurland Castle. Sold in the early 1600s to the staunchly royalist Girlington family, the estate was later confiscated and passed on to a Parliamentarian officer who built the first house on the site; in 1690, it was bought by John Fenwick, a lawyer from Northumberland.\nIn 1740, Robert Fenwick, Attorney General and MP for Lancaster, as well as being a keen amateur archaeologist, commissioned the architect Westby Gill to rebuild the house in its present form. In 1945, the Fenwicks sold Burrow Hall to the 6th Earl Temple of Stowe, who restored much of the interior. On the death of his widow in 1974, the estate was sold again and, in 1996, was bought by the present owners, who have made further major improvements, including the addition of a spectacular atrium linking the house to its original, Grade II*-listed stable block. The latter has planning permission for two apartments.\nThe elegance of Burrow Hall?s Classical Georgian exterior is mirrored in the Baroque ceilings by Vassalli and Quadri, the marble fireplaces and the delicate cornicing of its five grand reception rooms; the sumptuous master suite, seven further bedrooms, three further bathrooms and a gym are all on the first floor.\nThe gardens and grounds are a romantic mix of small walled gardens, lawns, herbaceous borders and meandering paths, with views towards Leck Fell and Ingleborough. The rest of the estate comprises parkland, woodland, the 146-acre let Parkside Farm (for sale separately), and 510 acres of single-bank fishing on the Lune.\nThe dramatic landscape around Der- went Water and Borrowdale in western Lakeland is the setting for Millbeck Place at Millbeck, two miles north of Keswick, currently on the market through Carter Jonas (01539 722592) at a guide price of \u00a3850,000. Millbeck Place and its original wool-drying barn, both listed Grade II, stand in five acres of picturesque gardens and grounds.\nIt has four reception rooms, three bedrooms, a family bathroom, a guest suite and two attic rooms.\nNearby, Derwent Lodge, in the popular village of Portinscale, 1? miles west of Keswick, is a substantial seven-bedroom Georgian house, with equally splendid lake and fell views. Built by Joseph Pocklington in 1780, it stands in 11 acres of beautifully laid out gardens, and is on the market through Penrith Farmers? and Kidd?s (017687 74546) at a guide price of \u00a3975,000.\nWordsworth wrote no fewer than 34 sonnets about the waterfalls, hills and woodlands of the gentle Duddon Valley in Lakeland?s south-west corner. A mere \u00a3295,000 will buy a taste of gracious living within the walls of early-18th-century Duddon Hall near Broughton-in-Furness, formerly home to the lords of the manor of Dunnerdale and Seathwaite.\nCurrently for sale through Davis & Bowring (015394 47240), 17, Duddon Hall is one of four light and airy apartments in the main house, which has been painstakingly renovated by local builders A. W. Bowness. It has a large sitting room, a dining kitchen, three bedrooms and two bathrooms, and there are wonderful views of the Duddon, the surrounding woodland and the fells beyond.",

        "raw_content": "Our very own magical mystery tour\nJohn Lennon would have been 64 this week. Chronicle reporter MARC BAKER meets the super-star's half-sister Julia Baird.\nJULIA Baird has broken years of silence to tell the world how fab her famous half-brother really was and how important Chester was in their childhood. Last week the former teacher, who lives quietly in an unassuming home near Malpas, threw herself into the spotlight to unveil an exhibition at The Beatles Story museum in Liverpool.\nIn the run-up to what would have been John Lennon's 64th birthday on Saturday, Julia was there to hand over her his lyrics to All You Need is Love and the Bed-in for Peace bedspread used during his protest in Montreal.\nJulia, 57, is helping to promote John's achievement as Liverpool prepares to be the European Capital of Culture in 2008.\nHowever, she believes people should also be visiting Chester, where she and John used to visit when they were small.\nJohn and Julia's grandmother Annie Mill-ward was born at the Earl of Shrewsbury's town house in Chester - now the Bear & Billet pub in Lower Bridge Street - and lived there until her 20s.\n'Our great grandfather and great-grandmother lived there,' she said. 'Our great-grandfather was the clerk to the earl, because of that he had the freedom to the city of Chester.\n'During childhood, John and I used to spend a lot of time in Chester.\n'We also used to come to Chester on the train from Liverpool as we always knew that Chester was the best place for clothes shopping. We used to go for lunch at Browns and walk down by the river.\n'Chester has always been in the family. We are the classic family that moved from Wales to Chester to Liverpool.\n'John was very fond of Chester. We always thought Chester was the place to be, not Liverpool.'\nLike Liverpool, Julia says Chester could boast its own Beatles Magical Mystery Tour.\nThough Chester does not have Strawberry Fields or Penny Lane, The Beatles did stay at The Blossoms Hotel, Love Street, when they played the former Royalty Theatre, City Road, in the 1960s.\nThe band also played The Riverpark Ballroom in Union Street, and passed through Chester on a train to Bangor in the 1960s to meet Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. It was on this journey that the Fab Four were informed of the death of manager Brian Epstein, who was due to join them in Bangor for a meeting of the International Meditation Society.\nClose to the River Dee is a house called Nowhere, thought to be Lennon's inspiration for The Beatles song Nowhere Man.\n'I am sure you could do a Beatles tour of Chester,' said Julia.\n'If the Americans or the Japanese knew about its connection to The Beatles and John they would be here like a shot.'\nFor the past 15 years Julia has worked as a teacher in Blacon, Chester, helping children and teenagers with various problems.\nDuring that time she kept her link to John secret as she says it would have been too easy for youngsters to turn round and poke fun.\n'I will now have to tell them all,' she said. 'I want to go back and speak to them.\n'I have not spoken about John for a long time, only through my work helping Liverpool have I decided to talk more and more about him.\n'This is absolutely the right time to remind Liverpool and the rest of the world of John's message of peace.\n'Sadly, John's dream of 'all the people living life in peace' seems even more remote today than when he first composed Imagine.'\nJulia is the eldest daughter of Julia Lennon - John's mother - and John Dykin. When she was two, the family moved to the Springwood Estate in Liverpool.\nShe was 10 when she first saw John perform with her younger sister, Jackie. When Julia was 11, her and John's mother was killed by a car outside the family home.\nIn 1965, when she was 18, Julia met Allen Baird. They married in 1968 and, after the birth of their first child, lived in Liverpool, then Cheshire.\nWhen John first moved to America, Julia lost touch with him, but in 1974 a phone call reestablished contact and from then on John called on a regular basis. He asked Julia to send him family pictures, especially photos of their mother.\nIf he had been alive today, Julia believes John would still be creative.\n'He would have still been writing, painting and would have definitely been anti-war,' she said. 'He would have also helped the Third World. He would have given money. He would have definitely cared.'\nShe says John would have been 'thrilled' to hear that Imagine was last week named the most-played single in America.\nHowever, she says he would have laughed if he knew his sister once forgot its lyrics during a trip to India in 1993 with Save the Family.\nJulia said: 'My partner and I were over there sitting with these children and they were singing us songs. I asked 'what can we sing them that's a bit more adult?'. I said 'I know, let's sing Imagine'. But as I started to sing it I forgot the words. I had to contact a friend in Chester to send the lyrics over by mail!'",

Malik achieved this during the second match of the Zimbabwe Tri-Series, against Australia at Harare Sports Club on Monday. However, this is Malik\u2019s 99th match for Pakistan; he played the other match for ICC World XI, against West Indies at Lord\u2019s in May. Shahid Afridi (99) is the second name on the list, while MS Dhoni (90) is third.\nMalik had made his T20I debut almost 12 years ago, in August 2006, in Pakistan\u2019s first ever T20I. He has led Pakistan 23 times, which includes taking them to the final of the inaugural World T20, in 2007. He has announced, however, that he would retire from T20Is after the upcoming World T20.\nOn Sunday, Malik had become the third cricketer (after Brendon McCullum and Martin Guptill) to score 2,000 T20I runs. He also has 27 wickets, which makes him the first cricketer to do the 2,000 run-25 wicket double in the format.\nMalik has also played 35 Tests with ordinary numbers (1,898 runs at 35.14, 32 wickets at 47.46). However, his ODI record (6,975 runs at 35.22, 154 wickets at 38.65, economy 4.65) across 261 matches makes excellent reading.\nA much sought-after cricketer in T20 franchises across the world, Malik has played in India (for Delhi Daredevils), Sri Lanka (Uva Next), West Indies (Barbados Tridents), Australia (Hobart Hurricanes), England (Warwickshire), Bangladesh (Comilla Victorians and Chittagong Vikings), as well as several teams in Pakistan.\n100 T20Is Australia Pakistan Shoaib Malik Shoaib Malik 100 T20Is Zimbabwe Tri-Series 2018\nZimbabwe Tri-Series (Australia and Pakistan) Match : Pakistan vs Australia\nRajat Sharma elected new DDCA President\nMohammad Hafeez\u2019s unique T20 International \u2018double\u2019",

As some of you are aware, I will be relocating to Largo on the Gulf in Florida this Friday. Many things led to this big change and all the responsibilities that go along with such a move. The main catalyst for the decision was impending right knee replacement and repair and the recuperation period that will follow.\nMy family thinks I should be where the majority of them are. God forbid, they are beginning to act like I am 76 or something morbid like that. Ha! Actually, I have just figured out what I really want to do. Remember that Grandma Moses was 80 when she first learned to paint and discovered she had the talent to do it. There is a long line of elders that did great things that affect us all. So, don\u2019t mark us down for the count.\nThe best things in life happened to me in Texas. I had a remarkable career in the newspaper world and climbed to the top of the ladder when I was honored to receive the First Place Award for Investigative Journalism (in the nation) presented by the National Newspaper Association with 4,700 member newspapers involved. That total included uncounted writers and reporters that worked for those 4,700 newspapers.\nThe series I won for was some of my best work on Consensual Teenage Sex in Texas and the aftermath when a teen (boy or girl) is sentenced to life as a registered sex offender. I interviewed 53 families and sat at kitchen tables, on living room sofas, and in front and back yards, holding hands and hugging grieving parents getting their stories.\nI had the full support of the staff of The Examiner for which I worked. It was a happy night when my boss (he hates that term) and I walked up on the big stage in Oklahoma City and brought the big one home to that scrappy little newspaper in Southeast Texas.\nOther stories I will never forget is Walter Bell, the Grandfather of Texas famed Death Row. I earned federal clearance and spent 13 hours on Death Row interviewing Walter and learning it was impossible for him to have committed the crime for which he was charged and punished for 37 years when I met him.\nCrystal Rawls Spurlock and I did the legwork, got him five new trials and saw Walter transferred to Rusk State Hospital and off the Row. He is happy there, graduated from school, and now helps to train incoming inmates. I married in a dress, shoes, hose, and jewelry Walter and his mom, Bessie, bought me.\nThere are so many others that make up my patchwork quilt of memories.

Products can be tracked at the unit, case and pallet levels throughout the supply chain. This level of detail allows Pfizer to determine the location of a product and document the chain of ownership as it moves through the supply chain, to better ensure product safety and legitimacy in the market.\nMaintaining compliance with global serialisation requirements in important markets such as China, India, Korea, EU, US and others helps avoid delay of product shipments to customers and provides authenticated products and additional supply chain security. This protects Pfizer\u2019s patients and safeguards pharmaceutical product integrity against counterfeiting or reintroduction of stolen goods.\nCurrie & Brown provides financial management and oversight for the project, including engineering, business technology, and programme/project management at both the central and site levels. Our responsibilities include cost analysis, forecasting, reconciliation with actuals, creation and maintenance of various metrics, and routine reporting to senior management and other financial stakeholders, as well as day-to-day management of contracts, purchase orders and invoices.\nWe have implemented structure and processes to ensure that updated, accurate financials are available at all times. We also developed and routinely deliver metrics to various stakeholders in order to maintain a climate of open, transparent communication about the programme\u2019s financial status.\nSuch a large and extensive project over many years requires great attention to detail and the ability to understand and manage multiple data sets in a continuously-changing strategic landscape.

        "raw_content": "Charleston Marijuana Possession Laws\nDale Savage Law Firm, LLC / Criminal Defense / Charleston Marijuana Possession Laws\nNovember 7, 2014 by Dale Savage\nWhat does possession of drugs mean in South Carolina? Possession is one of the key elements in most drug-related crimes. Possession means more than simply having drugs such as marijuana in your possession. You must have knowing possession.\nThere are two types of possession recognized in South Carolina:\nActual possession; and\nConstructive possession.\nWhat is Actual Possession?\nActual possession occurs when you have actual physical custody of marijuana on your person such as in your pocket, purse, wallet, etc.\nConstructive Possession \u2013 That\u2019s not mine!\nConstructive possession is a little trickier than actual possession. Constructive possession of drugs occurs even though you do not have physical custody of the drugs but you have both:\n\u201cKnowledge\u201d of the drugs presence and;\n\u201cDominion and control\u201d or the right to have dominion and control over the marijuana.\nState v. Hudson\nWhat Knowledge is required?\nA person\u2019s knowledge may be inferred if the drugs are found on the property that is under the control of the defendant. State v. Adams. However, this is not automatic. Whether the evidence is sufficient to withstand a directed verdict motion when the State relies upon circumstantial evidence of constructive possession is a fact intensive determination.\nState v. Brownlee, the police found a gun and cocaine in the defendant owner\u2019s vehicle. The court addressed what knowledge is required and stated:\n[P]ossession requires that a person be in actual or constructive possession of the controlled substance with actual knowledge of its presence\u2026. Constructive possession of a controlled substance exists when a person although not in actual physical possession of the controlled substance exercises dominion and control over the substance or has the right to exercise dominion and control over the substance. A person has possession of a controlled substance within the meaning of this law when he has both the power and the intent to control its disposition or use. So, under this offense it must be shown that the defendant had possession of the controlled substance and that the defendant knew he had the controlled substance in his possession. Knowledge of the presence of the controlled substance by the defendant is an essential element of possession.\nHowever, if someone is living is a house where they do not have an ownership interest, like a renter or child of a parent, then this may not meet the requirement for constructive possession because the person merely has a right of access and not necessarily dominion and control over the property. State v. Heath\nWhat is Dominion and Control?\nConstructive possession requires that you have power over the drug. Dominion and control means that you either have power over either the drug or the premises upon which the drugs are found. State v. Heath This can be established by circumstantial or direct evidence. There is no bright line rule, so each case requires a detailed review of the facts surrounding the issue.\nAre drugs in my house or car enough to prove constructive possession?\nIt depends. Remember, close proximity to a controlled substance is never enough to prove constructive possession, you must show knowledge coupled with dominion and control.\nIn State v. Brown, the defendant was a passenger in the front seat of the car where marijuana was found. In finding the State\u2019s evidence insufficient to create a jury issue on constructive possession, the Court stated: Brown did not own the car, there was no special relationship between, with the driver or owner of the car from which control of the car or its contents might be inferred.\nIf you are the sole occupant of the home or car where a controlled substance is found, your exclusive occupancy will depend on the ownership status of the car or residence. If you own the car or residence then many times you will have constructive possession because you have the right to control the area where the drugs are found.\nNon-Exclusive Occupancy\nIf you are not the sole occupant of the home or car, possession is slightly more difficult to prove. Where there is more than one occupant, there must be additional evidence, such as incriminating facts or circumstances that shows both knowledge and control.\nIn State v. Tabory, the defendant was a passenger in a U-haul truck, where twenty-six hundred pounds of marijuana were found. The Court noted that while defendant\u2019s presence in the truck alone might not support a finding of constructive possession, his presence coupled with incriminating testimony of the State\u2019s witness, made a clear jury issue on constructive possession.\nPossession can be sole or joint\nConstructive possession can be sole or joint, meaning either an individual or a more than one person can have possession over the drugs. An example would be where police find one bag of marijuana in the kitchen of a house owned by two people, both can be liable under constructive possession.\nMere presence of a person in an area where drugs are found is not enough in and of itself to give rise to the necessary inference. Proof of possession requires more than proof of mere presence at the place where the drugs are found.\nMere presence is insufficient to prove constructive possession. State v. Tabory. We recognize that proof of possession requires more than proof of mere presence, and that the State must show defendant had dominion and control over the thing allegedly possessed or had the right to exercise dominion and control over it.\nState v. Brownlee, The purpose of a mere presence charge in a drug case is to inform the jury that any inference which is permissibly drawn from the presence of the defendant at the location where drugs are found is, as a matter of law, insufficient by itself to convict a defendant of the possession or possession with the intent to distribute drugs. In other words, the law does not allow a jury to conclude guilt beyond a reasonable doubt based solely upon the inferences drawn from presence in the proximity of drugs. It is possible for the jury to infer knowledge of the drugs and the intent to exercise dominion and control over them from the mere presence. The law does not condemn this inference. However, the law will not allow that inference, without more, to prove possession beyond a reasonable doubt\nIf you have been charged with possession of marijuana, cocaine or even a felony and have a possession issue in your case call an experienced and trusted criminal defense lawyer Charleston, SC at the Dale Savage Law Firm today for a free case consultation (843) 530-7813.",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Patient Info \u00bb Spinal Surgery \u00bb Scoliosis \u00bb Anterior & Posterior Approach\nThere are a variety of different approaches to correction of spinal deformity. Surgeons make decisions regarding the type of surgery that is appropriate for your case depending on the type, severity, and location of your particular spinal curve. In certain types of deformity, your surgeon may recommend that you have what is termed a \"front and back\" or anterior-posterior spinal surgery.\nAnterior and posterior surgery is generally recommended for curves that are very severe, stiff, or when you have failed previous attempts at fusion.\nThe first thing that happens after you enter the operating room is that your anesthesiologist will help you to fall asleep. Once you are completely asleep, the anesthesiologist will place a breathing tube to assist with your breathing during surgery, establish a variety of catheters in your veins, and often an arterial catheter in your wrist, all of which allow for monitoring of heart function, blood pressure, fluid status, and the depth of anesthesia during your operation. This allows the anesthesiologist to be sure that you remain completely asleep during the operation.\nAnterior and posterior surgery requires that the surgeon will first approach your spinal column from the front. In order to do this, the surgeon will usually make an incision on your side. The surgeon will then remove the disc material from between the vertebrae in the most severe part of your curve to make your curve more flexible and facilitate fusion. This part of the procedure often requires removal of a rib that is then used for bone graft.\nAfter the anterior part of the procedure is completed, the wound is closed and you are then positioned for the \"back\" or posterior part of the procedure. The deformity is then corrected with placement of spinal instrumentation in your back followed by a posterior fusion.\nCorrection of the scoliosis requires that the surgeon be able to \"grab on\" to the spine. There are a variety of ways to do this. Technically, the surgeon may choose to use hooks that attach to the back of the spine on the lamina, pedicle screws that are placed into the pedicle in the middle of the vertebra, wires, or other devices. Once these connection points are established, then a rod that has been bent or contoured into a more normal alignment for the spine can be attached and correction performed.\nThe incision is closed and dressed. Some surgeons may choose to place a drain into the wound after the surgery to protect the incision. Patients wake up in their hospital bed lying on their back. Most patients who have had anterior and posterior surgery will require care in the Intensive Care Unit after surgery.",

        "raw_content": "Cru bourgeois classification annulled\nMaggie Rosen February 28, 2007\nThe latest cru bourgeois classification has been annulled by a court in Bordeaux, it emerged yesterday.\nThe 2003 law that established the hierarchy of the cru bourgeois wines in the Medoc was annulled by the administrative court of appeals in Bordeaux.\nThe repeal effectively returns the M\u00e9doc classification to its original 1932 status, and allows nearly 200 chateaux eliminated in the 2003 revision to call their wines cru bourgeois.\nThe ruling also rescinds the cru bourgeois superieur and cru bourgeois exceptionnel rankings, affecting 87 and nine chateaux respectively.\nAll Chateaux, including the \u2018exceptionnel\u2019 Chasse-Spleen, Poujeaux and Ph\u00e9lan S\u00e9gur, revert, along with the 444 chateaux of the 1932 classification, to a simple \u2018cru bourgeois\u2019 status.\nThe 2003 reclassification was the result of efforts to raise consumer confidence in the cru bourgeois label by eliminating poor quality wines through a more rigorous selection process. But the process \u2013 which saw the number of cru bourgeois reduced by nearly half \u2013 was marred by conflicts of interest.\nIn 2004, a group of 78 ch\u00e2teaux sought, and won, a partial repeal of the 2003 law, but appellants further demanded a total retraction.\nYesterday\u2019s decision, predicted by decanter.com earlier this month, was expected by producers and outside observers. One magistrate agreed with the appellants that it was not possible to bestow a new status on 78 chateaux without a re-evaluation of the entire list.\nThose in favour of the 2003 reclassification \u2013 however problematic \u2013 are disappointed in the decision. Thierry Gardinier, of Ch\u00e2teau Phelan-Segur and president of the Alliance of Crus Bourgeois said the new ruling had sent 10 years of hard work down the drain.\nEven those on the side of the appeal, led by Denis Hecquet, president of the M\u00e9doc winegrowers\u2019 union, said the affair had further tarnished the \u2018lustre\u2019 of the cru bourgeois name.",

        "raw_content": "McLemore leads No. 9 Kansas past Colorado, 90-54\nLAWRENCE, Kan.\u2014Ben McLemore is already accustomed to being on the finishing end of alley-oop dunks.\nHe was on the giving end on Saturday.\nIt happened midway through the second half, when the freshman guard looked toward the rim and then lofted a pass that Kevin Young snared in mid-air. The senior sparkplug for ninth-ranked Kansas proceeded to throw down a dunk over Colorado\u2019s Xavier Johnson that brought another capacity crowd in Allen Fieldhouse to its feet.\nIn a game full of highlights, that one might have defined the game.\nMcLemore finished with 24 points, Young added 16 points and eight rebounds, and the Jayhawks rolled to a 90-54 victory over the Buffaloes, sending their former Big 12 foe limping back to the Pac-12.\n\u201cHe was talking to me\u2014he kept saying, \u2018I\u2019m running and running,'\u201d McLemore said. \u201cWe got on a break, and I tossed it up to him and he finished it, and the crowd got into it and we kept rolling.\u201d\nElijah Johnson hit three 3-pointers and finished with 11 points, and Travis Releford added 10 points and six assists for the Jayhawks (7-1), who used an 18-3 run fueled by feisty defense to bury the Buffaloes early.\nKansas pushed the advantage to more than 20 by halftime, surpassed the 30-point barrier with 17 minutes left and extended it to 40 with about 8 minutes to go before substituting liberally down the stretch.\n\u201cThat was an old-fashioned (butt) whipping right there, is what that was,\u201d Colorado coach Tad Boyle said. \u201cIt\u2019s not like our guys wanted to roll over and die. Kansas just came out and took our heart.\u201d\nJosh Scott finished with 19 points to lead the Buffaloes (7-2), who have lost two of three after rattling off six straight wins to start the year. Askia Booker added 15 points, and leading scorer Spencer Dinwiddie was held to four points on 1-for-4 shooting. Xavier Johnson missed all four of his field-goal attempts before fouling out.\n\u201cIt all comes down to defense,\u201d Dinwiddie said. \u201cIt\u2019s not like they were hitting contested 3s, they were dunking on us and absolutely humiliating us. There really is nothing else to say.\u201d\nColorado has lost 19 straight to the Jayhawks, and 46 of 47, dating to the 1991 season. The longtime Big 12 member, which bolted for the Pac-12 last season, still hasn\u2019t won at Allen Fieldhouse since the 1982-83 season, a span of 29 games.\nKansas coach Bill Self is 18-0 against the Buffaloes, and has won 11 straight against the Pac-12.\n\u201cThat\u2019s the first time we\u2019ve played a game in our building where we didn\u2019t let our opponent get comfortable in the game from the outset,\u201d Self said. \u201cThat\u2019s what we\u2019re supposed to do every game.\u201d\nThe Jayhawks led 43-22 at halftime after turning Colorado over 12 times and coughing up a possession just twice in the first 20 minutes. The result was a lopsided 22-2 advantage in points-off-turnovers, and a big lead despite missing its final 10 3-point attempts of the half.\nMcLemore nearly outscored the Buffaloes by himself, pouring in 17 points.\nThe freshman guard, who sat out last season as a partial NCAA qualifier, did his best work slashing through the lane and getting to the foul line. But he also picked Colorado\u2019s pocket on a couple of occasions, once tipping the ball over a defender\u2019s head and tracking it down for an easy dunk and an 18-3 lead in the opening minutes.\n\u201cI give my teammates a lot of credit,\u201d McLemore said. \u201cWe just go out there and have fun.\u201d\nThe only stretch in which Kansas wasn\u2019t having fun came midway through the first half, when it missed seven straight field goals, and Colorado closed within 29-18. As if on cue, the Jayhawks scored the next nine points to force Boyle\u2014who played for Kansas in the 1980s\u2014to call a frantic timeout.\nDinwiddie, who had scored at least 20 in three straight games, played only 12 minutes in the first half. He picked up two fouls in the first 5 minutes, and at one point went to the locker room favoring his left ankle.\nThe Jayhawks put the game away with an 11-2 run to start the second half.\nThe spurt included a nifty feed from Young to Jeff Withey under the basket, and a block by Withey on Colorado\u2019s Andre Roberson that led to a run-out and a dunk by Releford. Young had a hand in several buckets early in the second half, and finished 8 of 9 from the field as the Jayhawks shot 55 percent for the game.\n\u201cWhen you\u2019re playing a team like Kansas in a building like this, your mistakes get magnified,\u201d Boyle said, \u201cand they just put it to us.\u201d",

Check out this story on desmoinesregister.com: http://dmreg.co/2iXE6hg\nClark Kauffman, ckauffman@dmreg.com Published 2:41 p.m. CT Nov. 27, 2017 | Updated 3:32 p.m. CT Nov. 27, 2017\nLawsuit alleges youth are kept in filthy isolation cells and denied treatment\nMark Day leads a tour of the auto-shop at the Boys State Training School at Eldora in November 2016.(Photo11: Tony Leys/Des Moines Register)Buy Photo\nIowa is mistreating dozens of juveniles at the State Training School for Boys in Eldora, including locking up boys in isolation, according to a federal lawsuit filed Monday.\nThe lawsuit states that juveniles at the state-run home are being denied legally required mental health services and boys who have committed minor policy violations are being punished with solitary confinement by being placed inside \u201cfilthy, foul-smelling seclusion cells\u201d for days without seeing a mental health professional.\nIt alleges that a suicidal, 16-year-old boy from Des Moines, diagnosed with anger-control issues and a mood disorder, was placed in solitary confinement at least 53 times, for a total of 1,000 hours, between February and August of this year.\nThe lawsuit also says boys are being strapped down for extended periods on a special bed called \"the wrap,\" with Velcro strips across their arms, legs and torso.\nThe congressionally chartered organization Disability Rights Iowa and a New York nonprofit called Children\u2019s Rights Inc. are suing Jerry Foxhoven, the director of the Iowa Department of Human Services; DHS administrator Richard Shults; and the superintendent of the Eldora facility, Mark Day.\nThe lawsuit was filed on behalf of three juveniles at the DHS-managed home who require mental health services, but the plaintiffs are seeking class-action status.\nThe defendants have not filed a response to the lawsuit, and the Department of Human Services hasn't commented on the case.\nThe lawsuit does not seek damages but instead asks the court to order DHS administrators to make fundamental changes in the way they address the needs of youth at the facility, who range in age from 12 to 18.\nAll of the youth at the Eldora facility are there because they\u2019ve been in trouble with the law \u2014 in many cases, they have committed a series of non-violent offenses \u2014 and the vast majority are diagnosed with mental health issues.\nThe lawsuit comes 14 weeks after Foxhoven appeared to dismiss a set of two reports, one from Disability Rights Iowa and one from Next Steps Counseling Services, which questioned the treatment of youth at the Eldora home.\nAt the time, Foxhoven said he was \u201creally proud\u201d of the facility and that DHS does \u201ca really, really good job with really, really tough kids.\u201d\nIowa Department of Human Services Director Jerry Foxhoven, center, responds to pointed questions from State Sen. Joe Bolkcom, left, during a meeting Tuesday at the Statehouse. (Photo11: Tony Leys/The Register)\nThe allegations in the lawsuit mirror many of the findings in the August reports. Some of the issues were raised two years ago by one of DHS' hired consultants.\nAmong the other allegations in the lawsuit:\nDHS does not staff the home to provide youth with the minimum, legally required mental health services. The facility serves about 110 youth at any given time but has only one full-time psychologist. That individual does not have a license to practice psychology \u2014 under Iowa law, state-employed psychologists need not be licensed \u2014 and he couldn\u2019t obtain a license here because of his lack of a doctorate. The psychologist has a full-time assistant who isn\u2019t required to have a college degree but is expected to administer and score psychometric tests and develop behavior-support plans. A part-time psychiatrist works two mornings per week at the Eldora home, ordering and overseeing the medication for as many as 500 different youth per year.\nUnlike every other residential care facility for Iowa children, the DHS-managed facility operates without a license and is not subject to periodic inspections by another state agency. DHS is responsible for the state regulations imposed on privately run facilities of this kind, but the Eldora home is exempt from that same level of oversight. This also was an issue at the state-run home for girls, which closed in 2014 amid complaints that girls there had been placed in long-term isolation cells for days, or even months, at a time.\nBoys are regularly placed inside locked, solitary-confinement cells that are roughly 6 feet long and 9 feet wide. The boys are placed there not as part of their treatment, but as \"harsh and excessive punishment\" for rule violations that, by policy, can include horseplay, arm wrestling, \u201cgrandstanding in front of other students\u201d or using profanity. There are 26 cells at the home, two of which are used for the most severe punishment and are windowless. The cells typically have a sink and toilet \u2014 though the water may be shut off \u2014 along with raised concrete platforms on which to sit and sleep. While inside the cells, boys generally are not allowed any personal items other than a book. One youth was assigned to 40 hours of solitary confinement for \u201ctalking and laughing.\u201d\nThe home has increased its use of a physical-restraint device called \u201cthe wrap,\u201d in which a youth is immobilized on a special bed that is equipped with 14 Velcro straps that extend across his arms, legs and torso. In 2012, the Commission on Accreditation for Corrections expressed concern to DHS that the bed had been used 80 times in 2011, and it urged the agency to reconsider its use of the device. Since then, use of the wrap has increased, although the population at the home has not. In the first seven months of 2017, the wrap was used 109 times, according to the lawsuit.\nWritten treatment plans for the youth are supposed to be tailored to each individual\u2019s needs but instead are \u201cuniform, cookie-cutter documents\u201d that tend to recommend the same course of treatment for each child. These plans are typically authored by \u201cyouth counselors,\u201d whose job requirements don\u2019t require licensing, mental health training or any education beyond a high school diploma or GED.\nThe facility doesn\u2019t provide adequate discharge planning for the youth, which lessens their chance for success once they\u2019re released into the community. One youth who suffered from a serious mental health illness was discharged with only a week\u2019s notice to his parents and with no effort made to provide a transition to community-based health services.\nTo control the behavior of youth at the home, DHS is relying on the use of powerful psychotropic medications \u2014 a practice that federal officials have said is becoming increasingly common in long-term care facilities for seniors. Roughly 66 percent of the youth at the Eldora home are on psychotropic medications that target the central nervous system. The lawsuit alleges it is \u201ccommon practice\u201d for the Eldora staff to use these drugs for \u201coff-label treatment,\u201d meaning they are used to treat conditions for which the drugs aren\u2019t approved.\nDisability Rights Iowa and Children\u2019s Rights Inc. are not the only entities to have raised some of these concerns.\nIn 2015, an independent consultant who was hired by DHS, Dr. Kirk Heilbrun, advised the state agency that it did not have adequate mental health staff at the Eldora home and that one psychologist was insufficient for the youth there.\nHeilbrun recommended that DHS increase staffing and create a small mental health unit that could address the behavioral health needs of the boys. Neither of those recommendations was implemented.\nAlso in 2015, the Commission on Accreditation for Corrections audited the Eldora facility and cited the home for its failure to implement an informed-consent policy on the use of psychotropic drugs.\nAccording to the newly filed lawsuit, DHS now has a policy, but has never implemented it and routinely disregards it.\nAs for placing children and adolescents in solitary confinement, the American Medical Association and the National Commission on Correctional Health Care are opposed to the practice.\nThe Council of Juvenile Correctional Administrators recommends that solitary confinement be used with youth only in \u201csituations involving a serious threat by a youth to harm oneself or others,\u201d and the U.S. Department of Justice has recommended that juveniles not be placed in solitary confinement even within the federal prison system.\nShults, the DHS administrator in charge of mental health services, is a defendant in the lawsuit but also is a member of the National Association of State Mental Health Program Directors.\nThat association has said the use of seclusion and restraints can result in \"serious injury or death, re-traumatization of people who have a history of trauma, and loss of dignity and other psychological harm.\"\nIn 2013, Foxhoven, now the director of DHS, was a Drake law professor who chaired a task force that examined abuses at the girls' home in Toledo.\nAs part of that effort, the task force also looked at policies and oversight at the State Training School for Boys in Eldora.\nRead or Share this story: http://dmreg.co/2iXE6hg",

        "raw_content": "on October 7, 2012 and was last updated on October 25, 2018\n\u201cYou\u2019re a smart man. Why should that get in your way in attracting women? Here\u2019s how to avoid that mistakes intelligent guys like you make with women. What the genius paradox is. You can\u2019t see it. You\u2019re arrogant. Poor social skills. Your psych yourself out. You seek only information solutions. You focus on logic.\u201d\nI\u2018ve been teaching men how to become more successful with women and dating for a several years now\u2026\nAnd one \u201cproblem scenario\u201d just keeps coming up OVER AND OVER\u2026 and OVER and OVER and OVER again\u2026\n\u2026and it\u2019s really amazes me.\nI\u2019m going to refer to it as \u201cThe Genius Failure Paradox\u201c.\nAfter contemplating this particular paradox, discussing it, and working on it for an awesome amount of time, I\u2019d like to share my thoughts about it with you.\nI assume that if you\u2019ve read this far, then you see probably yourself as smarter than the average guy.\nYou know that you\u2019re a little different than other guys.\nYou probably realized at a young age that you saw things differently, and thought differently than others in school\u2026\nAnd you\u2019ve probably realized that your smart mind gives you an advantage over others in many areas of life\u2026\nYour smart mind gives you a particular type of advantage that can be very, very powerful in life: YOU\u2019RE USUALLY RIGHT.\nSmart people get used to being \u201cright\u201d, because they usually ARE right.\nAnd when you\u2019re RIGHT more often than others, you can get ahead in many situations.\nBut unfortunately, this smart mind of yours can actually be WORSE than USELESS when it comes to a key area of life:\nWOMEN AND DATING.\nBy the way, I did say WORSE than useless.\nIt can actually be like having a hammer when you need to tighten a bolt. If you use the tool you have for the job, you\u2019ll most likely make the situation WORSE.\nOf course, it\u2019s hard for a smart guy to even IMAGINE a situation where his smart mind could HURT his chances for success\u2026\nBut trust me, this is one of those situations.\nSo relax, open your smart mind, and let me share with you the ten reasons why smart guys fail with women\u2026 and what to do about it.\nREASON #1: THEY\u2019RE WRONG, BUT THEY CAN\u2019T OR WON\u2019T SEE IT OR ADMIT IT\nI mentioned that smart guys are used to being RIGHT in most situations.\nAnd what do most smart guys do when they come across a situation where they\u2019re WRONG?\nThey find a new situation\u2026 one that fits their strength. They know they\u2019ll be right next time, so they just walk away\u2026 knowing that it won\u2019t be long before they\u2019re right again.\n(OR they let the \u201cproblem situation\u201d destroy them\u2026 more on that later.)\nWell, the BITCH about being wrong when it comes to women and dating is THERE\u2019S NOWHERE TO RUN AND HIDE.\nThere\u2019s no quick \u201cI\u2019m right\u201d around the next corner to make you feel better.\nIt only takes \u201cfailing\u201d with a few women in a row for a smart guy to see the pattern\u2026 and realize that something isn\u2019t working.\nSolution? Think harder.\nA smart guy just assumes that his logic must be good\u2026 so he just keeps thinking harder.\nBut when no success comes, it really starts to become mentally difficult.\nAccepting that you\u2019re wrong is a VERY hard thing for a \u201csmart guy\u201d.\nAccepting that you\u2019re not only wrong, but you have NO CLUE WHERE TO EVEN START is even more difficult.\nUltimately, many smart guys come up with the following logical conclusion:\nI AM A SMART GUY, THEREFORE IF I CAN\u2019T FIGURE OUT HOW TO BE SUCCESSFUL WITH WOMEN AND DATING, THEN THE PROBLEM MUST NOT BE SOLVABLE OR WORTH SOLVING.\nTry that on for a self-defeating idea.\nREASON #2: THEY\u2019RE BLIND AND ARROGANT\nIn short, many smart guys refuse to accept that a good, solid, workable answer could come from someone \u201cdumber\u201d than them, so they discount any idea that comes from an \u201cobviously less intelligent person\u201d before trying it.\nIf you were going to be walking across Africa on foot, would you rather have your guide be the guy on this planet with the highest I.Q., or a caveman who lived a million years ago that had an I.Q. of about 50\u2026 but who grew up being chased by lions and all kinds of animals that wanted to eat him all his life?\nNow, hopefully you\u2019d like to have the guide who isn\u2019t the smartest guy around\u2026\nbut who has escaped from many, many dangerous situations with deadly animals\u2026\nBut now let me ask you:\nIf you\u2019d like to learn how to be more successful with women and dating, would you take advice from a guy who isn\u2019t very intelligent, but who knows how to attract women?\nThere\u2019s something about being smart that makes some guys unwilling to accept input, ideas, or instruction from anyone who isn\u2019t either as smart or smarter than them.\nWell, any SMART GUY can see the folly in this particular approach\u2026 once it\u2019s examined closely.\nIf you\u2019ve been making this mistake, then you need to STOP IT. Stop being an arrogant bastard, and open your eyes.\nLearn from some \u201cdumb\u201d guys\u2026 and let them teach you how to get what you REALLY want.\nREASON #3: POOR SOCIAL SKILLS\nIt BLOWS MY MIND how many smart guys I meet that just don\u2019t GET IT when it comes to basic social skills.\nIt\u2019s as if they have logically reasoned that social skills are for lower beings who need to play games\u2026 and not worth the time it would take to learn them.\nIn fact, I believe that there are a lot of smart guys running around this planet who don\u2019t even have \u201csocial skills\u201d and \u201cbe a cool guy that people like\u201d in their \u201cMENTAL MODEL\u201d of what it could possibly take to be successful with women and dating.\nSocial skills are just that\u2026 SKILLS.\nThey\u2019re not social INFORMATION.\nThey\u2019re not social THEORIES.\nThey\u2019re social SKILLS.\nAnd you don\u2019t get them by THINKING about them. You get them by GETTING them.\nExcellent social skills are the foundation for good communication with other humans\u2026 and if you don\u2019t have good social skills, you dramatically lower your chances for success with women.\nREASON #4: THEY PSYCH THEMSELVES OUT\nSmart guys do something that fascinates the hell out of me\u2026\nThey come up with all the reasons why everything WON\u2019T WORK when it comes to women and dating.\nThey actually figure out why what they would like to do will probably fail\u2026\nThey use their amazing creative imaginations to imagine all kinds of horrible pictures and scenes\u2026 and then they use those imaginary outcomes to create negative emotions\u2026 which ultimately stop them from having success with women and dating.\nTHEY DON\u2019T EVEN TRY.\nNow, if you\u2019ve thought something through and come up with a good reason why it would fail, it makes sense to not do it, right?\nI mean, why would you want to do things that are going to fail?\nIt\u2019s sound logic, but HORRIBLE thinking when it comes to the REAL WORLD\u2026 and success with women.\nBecause smart guys don\u2019t UNDERSTAND women, and they don\u2019t UNDERSTAND what it takes to be successful with women, they are working with bad figures. They\u2019re wrong before they even start figuring!\nUsing your mind to come up with all the reasons why things won\u2019t work in this area of your life leads to ULTIMATE FAILURE.\nYou must learn to overcome this habit if you have it.\nREASON #5: THEY SEEK ONLY \u201cINFORMATIONAL SOLUTIONS\u201d\nWhat does a smart guy do when he runs into a problem\u2026 or he needs to figure something out?\nHe looks for INFORMATION to help him solve the problem.\nInformation is the friend of a smart guy.\nGot a strange virus on your computer? Just hop on the internet and search for how to eliminate it.\nDon\u2019t know how to change the alternator on your car? No prob. Just buy the manual and turn to page 147.\nDon\u2019t know the definition of a word? Open up your dictionary.\nMORE INFORMATION solves the problem.\nSo what do smart guys do when it comes to overcoming a problem with women?\nThey want MORE INFORMATION.\nThey think the answer lies in learning just ONE MORE TECHNIQUE\u2026 or one more magic concept.\nWell what if there were a situation in life where the \u201cget more information\u201d strategy actually made things WORSE?\nHow would you even know that it was making things worse?\nNow, I don\u2019t want to suggest that learning more about how to be successful with women is a bad thing. It\u2019s not.\nBut if you have a problem that is EMOTIONAL or PHYSICAL in nature, then reading five million theories on it probably isn\u2019t going to help you very much.\nYou need to get out in the real world and try some stuff!\nYou need to look at the REAL problem\u2026 the ROOT of the problem.\nWhen it comes to women and dating, there\u2019s a very good chance that you have MORE than enough \u201cinformation\u201d.\nSmart guys often use \u201cmore information\u201d to distract them from TAKING ACTION.\nI\u2019ve heard this referred to as \u201cCreative Avoidance\u201d.\nNod silently if you\u2019ve ever figured out a creative way to avoid facing something in your life.\nREASON #6: THEY FOCUS ON LOGIC INSTEAD OF EMOTION\nNEWS JUST IN: Women don\u2019t feel ATTRACTION for men who make them THINK.\nI\u2019m shaking my head right now\u2026\nSmart men try to engage women in LOGICAL conversations and interactions because that\u2019s where THEY feel comfortable\u2026 not knowing that they\u2019re SHOOTING THEMSELVES IN THE FOOT by doing it!\nGet this: A monkey sitting at a typewriter will type the collected works of Shakespeare before you will make a woman feel ATTRACTION for you by engaging her in logical conversation.\nWhen you start a logical conversation with a woman you\u2019ve just met, you are basically taking out a NEON SIGN that says \u201cI don\u2019t get it when it comes to women\u201d and putting it on your head.\nTypical \u201clogical\u201d conversations include talking about work, family, school, and jobs\u2026 discussing politics, religion, weather\u2026 and anything that has to do with math, science, or INTELLIGENCE.\nOn the other hand, if you start talking to a woman and you say \u201cOK, so tell me something\u2026 Why is it that all women say that they want sweet, nice guys\u2026 but they all date sexy, selfish bad boys?\u201d (and then make fun of any answer she gives) you\u2019re having an EMOTIONAL conversation.\nIf you don\u2019t know what I\u2019m talking about, keep reading. You need more help than I thought.\nREASON #7: THEY\u2019RE NOT USED TO THE CHALLENGE OF THE MOMENT\nSmart people usually have time to THINK about things.\nIf you\u2019re taking a test, you can sit there and work out the answers.\nIf you have a math problem, you can work on it until you\u2019ve figured it out.\nIf you\u2019re trying to fix something, you can keep working on it until it\u2019s fixed.\nSmart guys are used to being able to take at least a LITTLE bit of time to prepare and show off their \u201cgood sides\u201d in most situations.\nNot so with women\u2026\nIf you don\u2019t know what to do at every step along the way, you\u2019ll be shut down very quickly.\nWomen have an AMAZING \u201cHe doesn\u2019t get it\u201d radar system.\nWomen have all kinds of subtle and ingenious tests that they throw at men to separate the \u201cget its\u201d from the \u201cdon\u2019t get its\u201d.\nAnd if you don\u2019t get it, then you\u2019re going to fail one of these tests VERY quickly.\nBut the worst part is that you won\u2019t ever KNOW that you were being tested\u2026 OR that you failed.\nSmart guys aren\u2019t used to dealing with complex EMOTIONAL and COMMUNICATION challenges in the moment\u2026 and especially the \u201cwomen and dating\u201d kind.\nOne of they keys to becoming more successful with women and dating is learning to handle all of the tests that women throw at you effortlessly.\nBut before you can learn how to deal with the tests, you must first learn how\nto communicate on an emotional level, how to demonstrate that you have fundamental social skills, and how to keep your cool in the moment.\nREASON #8: THEY THINK THAT DOING \u201cNICE\u201d THINGS IS THE \u201cSMART WAY\u201d\nOK, let me ask you a trick question:\nIf I told you that you were going to have a date with the supermodel of your choice, which of the following would you choose as a \u201csmart\u201d way of preparing:\nFind out what her favorite type of flowers are, and show up with a dozen of them so she would be \u201cwowed\u201d.\nLearn about her favorite travel destination so you could discuss it with her.\nFind out what her favorite type of food is so you could take her to dinner\u2026 and she could see that you cared enough to choose something that she enjoyed.\nOK, time\u2019s up. Which did you choose?\nNow, I already mentioned that this was a TRICK question.\nThe answer is NONE OF THE ABOVE.\nThese three options all seemed logical, right?\nI mean, why WOULDN\u2019T you want to show up with her favorite flowers?\nWhy WOULDN\u2019T you want to talk about her favorite places to travel?\nWhy WOULDN\u2019T you want to take her to eat her favorite foods so she enjoyed herself?\nGo with me here\u2026\nSmart guys think that they\u2019re being CLEVER when they do things like buying a woman her favorite flowers\u2026 and bringing them to the FIRST DATE.\nIn their minds, they\u2019re thinking \u201cI\u2019m going to be the guy who is thinking ahead\u2026 and I\u2019m going to show up with the flowers that I KNOW she loves\u2026 and she\u2019s going to see them and like me more because of it\u201d.\nMakes sense\u2026 good math, right?\nWell the one teensy-weensy mistake that these \u201csmart\u201d guys make is not realizing that it doesn\u2019t actually take a smart person to think like this!\nIn fact, ANY jackass can figure out how to kiss a woman\u2019s ass.\nWOMEN KNOW THIS!\nEVERY WUSSBAG DOES THIS STUFF.\nAn intelligent guy, in his proud arrogance, will think he\u2019s being such the charmer by using this \u201cthoughtful\u201d approach\u2026\n\u2026and the woman he is chasing will interpret it as just another Wussy who\u2019s trying to MANIPULATE her.\nOuch. Another blow to intelligence.\nMISTAKE #9: ALWAYS NEEDING TO BE THE EXPERT\nHave you ever met a smart guy who always needed to be \u201cright\u201d?\nHave you ever met someone who would actually argue with you about something they knew nothing about\u2026 and make a fool of themselves because they just couldn\u2019t shut their \u201csmart mouths\u201d?\nOver the last few years helping guys improve their success with women, I see this one pattern over and over again\u2026\nSmart guys don\u2019t like to be \u201cbeginners\u201d at ANYTHING.\nThey don\u2019t like the idea of screwing up\u2026 especially if others are watching.\nThey want to maintain this \u201csmart guy\u201d image of themselves\u2026 so they try to always be \u201cThe Expert\u201d at whatever they do.\nInstead of saying \u201cHey, you know what? I\u2019m a beginner at this\u2026 how do I do it?\nWhat should I do first? What next?\u201d\u2026 and instead of being totally OK with screwing up, making mistakes, and making a fool of themselves in front of others in order to LEARN\u2026\n\u2026they won\u2019t risk embarrassment, failure, or others thinking that they\u2019re beginners\u2026 so they wind up ultimately FAILING.\nMORE NEWS JUST IN: It\u2019s OK to be a beginner.\nMISTAKE #10: THEY CAN\u2019T DEAL WITH FEAR AND OTHER EMOTIONS\nA smart guy\u2019s STRENGTH is his MIND.\nHis WEAKNESS is often his EMOTIONS.\nSmart guys are often IMMOBILIZED by FEAR.\nTotally stopped.\nAnd since many smart guys aren\u2019t comfortable dealing with things they\u2019re not good at, they just repress or RUN away from fear.\nMany men would rather DIE in lonely isolation than admit that they don\u2019t know how to deal with their emotions\u2026 or, GODFORBID, ask for help!\nHey, I went for YEARS like this.\nBut the reality is that any guy can learn to handle and even MASTER his emotions (even fear)\u2026 if he just takes the time and effort to learn HOW to do it.\nIf this is you, then do yourself a big favor\u2026 take the time. Take the effort.\nDon\u2019t worry about what anyone else thinks of you\u2026 it doesn\u2019t matter.\nWhat matters is you doing the things that YOU need to do FOR YOU.\n\u2026I think the reason why I\u2019m so fascinated with \u201cThe Genius Failure Paradox\u201d is because I have had to struggle with all of these issues for a lot of years\nNow, I\u2019m not saying that I\u2019m the smartest guy on the planet\u2026\nBut I don\u2019t think mamma raised no fool.\nAnd it always bothered the hell out of me that even though I was so good at figuring things out, I couldn\u2019t figure WOMEN out.\nSomething tells me that you know what I\u2019m talking about.\nWell, after beating my head against the wall for a few years\u2026 trying all kinds of crazy \u201clogical\u201d stuff\u2026 I finally got the \u201cbright\u201d idea to start studying guys who were \u201cnaturally\u201d good with women.\nOf course, I found out that you could be both NOT SMART, and VERY SUCCESSFUL WITH WOMEN at the same time.\nI also learned that you can be SMART and VERY SUCCESSFUL WITH WOMEN too.\nBy carefully studying what the \u201cnaturals\u201d did with women\u2026 and learning how they \u201cthought\u201d about the topic, I began to realize that success with women wasn\u2019t entirely LOGICAL.\nMuch of what I learned was very tough for me to accept\u2026 because my logical brain just didn\u2019t want to buy into it.\nOne thing I saw was guys pushing women away from them\u2026 and having the women then chase them in response.\nMade no sense at all.\nI saw guys tease beautiful women and make jokes about them to their faces\u2026 and then watched those women become \u201clittle girls\u201d in response\u2026 unable to maintain their composure, and therefore unable to maintain their manipulative power\u2026\nIt took me quite a long time, but I continued to learn, test, and refine what I was learning until I personally figured out how to approach women in any situation\u2026 get any woman\u2019s number I wanted anytime I wanted\u2026 date any type of woman I wanted\u2026\n\u2026and most importantly, GET RID of that \u201cempty\u201d feeling that I carried around my whole life because I didn\u2019t know how to attract women.\nAnd once I got this area of my own life together, I decided to help other guys get this area of THEIR lives together.\nThe ultimate result of all this time, effort, and energy is my free Dating Tips Newsletter.\nAnd I\u2019d like to invite you to sign up.\nDouble Your Dating by David DeAngelo\u00a9\nIt\u2019s free, there\u2019s no obligation,\nOf course, it even gets better than that\u2026\nIn addition to my free Dating Tips newsletter, I also have a killer downloadable eBook that you can download right now and be reading in literally MINUTES from right now.\nIt\u2019s JAM PACKED with dozens and dozens of specific strategies for overcoming fear, approaching women, getting phone numbers and email address from women quickly, great inexpensive or even free date ideas, and how to take things to a \u201cphysical\u201d level smoothly and easily.\nAnd I\u2019ll talk to you again soon.\nFor a great preview and lots of free advice straight from David himself, check out the amazing offer below and sign up today.",

        "raw_content": "5-minutes-with-new-business-development\nIn the first of our \u20185 minutes with\u2026\u2019 series, we caught up with Andrew Bacon, who leads the New Business Development team here at Dimensions, to talk about what has changed, what the current focus is and what the future expectations are in the world of New Business Development\u2026\nNearly 13 years! I started as Sales Assistant and have been fortunate enough to have had the opportunity to progress within Dimensions and now lead the New Business team.\nHow has the world of New Business Development changed since you started?\nWhen I first started, all tenders had to be submitted by hard copy and on many occasions, two or three copies would be needed! How things have changed\u2026 99% of tenders are now uploaded through online portals. I would also say time restrictions, as many tenders now run to tighter deadlines.\nAs a team, we combat this by being proactive both in building relationships early and in our approach to projects. Technological advances have also helped, as we can now use the Internet for more digital interaction, rather than just face-to-face. This means that we can provide information and interact with prospective clients on a more regular and timely basis.\nWhich part of New Business Development/ the tender process do you enjoy the most?\nBuilding new relationships, as well as the competitive nature of the role.\nThe continuation of the digital age offering flexibility of ways for people to do business with Dimensions. We are also looking forward to seeing how technology will incorporate itself into the clothes that we wear on a daily basis\u2026\nAt Dimensions, we are continuously carrying out extensive research into innovative wearable technology and its importance within the corporate wear industry. We know that it can offer benefits to the well-being and lifestyles of its wearers, so we are really excited to see how this will develop over the next few years and pass the advantages onto prospective clients.\nWhat is the most common misconception about New Business Development?\nThat it is the same as sales, especially as a common misconception surrounding sales people is that they over promise and under deliver. We don\u2019t believe in that approach \u2013 it\u2019s about putting ourselves into our potential clients\u2019 shoes and taking a consultative approach to business development, by building a robust and deliverable solution.\nAll of them, as it\u2019s important that we bring in the operational specialists at the right time within the tender project, to demonstrate to prospective clients what we have to offer as a business. Personally, I like the creative side of our business, as seeing the Design team produce great and inspiring designs gives you a real buzz. I also love getting into the detail with our dedicated Sourcing team, identifying the best routes in order to deliver the best value and service for our clients.\nWhat is the longest amount of time that you have ever worked on a project tender before closing?\nHow have external factors affected your approach to New Business Development?\nWith cost pressures mounting due to the economic climate, we have to think differently. We cannot rely on traditional garment savings by sourcing cheaper products, because eventually this will have an impact on the overall quality, thus affecting the lifecycle of the item and having false cost economy.\nWe have to strike a balance and offer flexibility to our clients. Managing our clients\u2019 costs down to individual wearer level has to be a must. At the end of the day, we are managing their money!\nWhat is the main focus for New Business Development?\nDelivering a great wearer experience is top of the agenda for us and this covers the full experience from order placement, through to receiving their goods and wearing our products.\nWhat are your top tips for succeeding in New Business Development?\nBe a good listener and do your research so that you understand the prospective client\u2019s requirements and challenges, to make sure that your proposal is tailored to their needs and adds value\u2026 One size does not fit all!",

Delve into the history of the beautiful game\nIf the World Cup leaves football fans wanting more, then a free online course jointly run by De Montfort University Leicester (DMU) has the answer in the form of one of the beautiful game\u2019s most unlikely success stories.\nThe World Cup has captured the hearts and minds of England and the rest of the world in 2018, but in 2016, the global football community celebrated as Leicester City FC completed one of the most remarkable stories in the history of the English club game. City won the Premier League title - despite being written off as relegation candidates at the start of the season when bookmakers made them 5000-1 outsiders - to be crowned champions.\nNow, in an updated free online short course called \u2018English Football: a Social History', learners can find out all they need to know about the history of the game, Leicester City Football Club\u2019s extraordinary success in the 2015/16 Premier League season, plus new content on the World Cup, from its origins to Russia 2018, updated specially for this year.\nThe free online course is delivered by the University of Leicester and DMU, in association with Leicester City Football Club. DMU is the official Higher Education Partner of LCFC.\nWhat a team! DMU signs new deal with Leicester City\nInternational students thrilled to be at heart of world-famous football story\nClick here for DMU Clearing info\nThe course is available for enrolment now and starts on 16 July \u2013 the day after the 2018 FIFA World Cup final - on the FutureLearn social learning platform.\nLearners will cover the origins of football, early fandom, politics, the women\u2019s game, and the role of the media in its recent cultural and economic transformation. They will also be able to share their views throughout the course, helping to explore the role football plays in their lives and what the sport really means to them.\nIn offering this unique opportunity to provide a pertinent, reflective take on the recent global story of football, the course combines the expertise of football academics from the University of Leicester\u2019s Unit for Diversity, Inclusion and Community Engagement (DICE) in the School of Media, Communication and Sociology and the International Centre for Sports and Culture (ICSHC) in the School of Humanities at De Montfort University. It will also draw on the expertise of Leicester City Football Club\u2019s Historian, John Hutchinson, to provide a unique insight into the background of the club and the remarkable 2016 season.\nDr Neil Carter, from the International Centre for Sports History and Culture at De Montfort University, said: \u201cThe World Cup attracts a global audience, but English football has undergone a number of key social and economic transformations since the birth of the sport in the late nineteenth century. This course offers an analysis of some of the ways in which the game has changed over time, for players, managers and fans. The formation of the Premier League seemed designed to favour the richer clubs \u2013 until Leicester City challenged that view in 2016.\u201d\nJohn Williams, Co-Director of DICE and Associate Professor in the School of Media, Communication and Sociology at the University of Leicester, said: \u201cThe course is designed for anyone interested in the history and social impact of football. We cover the history of the World Cup but also draw on our sociologists\u2019 expertise on fan culture, local football and local identity construction through sport, and their views of the new global and commercial landscape of professional football in Europe. We\u2019re also thrilled to be able to glean insights from DMU sport historians, and John Hutchinson, historian and archivist at Leicester City Football Club, who have written widely on the game\u2019s history, including its changing social and cultural status, both in the UK and globally.\u201d\nLearners can join the course for free, or can upgrade to receive additional benefits.

        "raw_content": "It\u2019s time to ban dangerous dogs\nA ONE-year-old is dead and another child is fighting for life after two horrific dog attacks this weekend. But still, dog owners are in denial.\nWhen you become a parent, there\u2019s one very simple rule we all need to abide by: Protect your children. At all costs. But when it comes to dogs, many of us turn a blind eye as to what is considered risky or dangerous.\nLet\u2019s talk about rottweilers and the unspeakable tragedy of one-year-old Kamillah Jones who lost her life in Inverell in northern NSW on Saturday after being attacked by a rottweiler.\nHow many deaths will it take before action is taken and these dangerous dogs are banned? Cue all the rottweiler defenders who will say time and time again, \u201cIt\u2019s very rare, most rottweilers are perfectly gentle,\u201d \u201cMy Rottweiler\u2019s as gentle as a lamb,\u201d \u201cIt\u2019s the owners who are at fault, not the dog,\u201d and so on. (And no doubt I\u2019ll be labelled a dog hater: I\u2019m not, I love dogs and cherish our small four-legged friend.)\nOf course, when a dog is properly trained, it can make a huge difference. And there are countless stories about so-called \u201cdangerous breeds\u201d that wouldn\u2019t harm a fly.\nBut, even if you are even slightly worried that a particular breed of dog might \u201cturn\u201d one day and hurt a child, then buy a breed that is not known to be potentially dangerous.\nLast year there was another tragedy as Perth woman Sue Lopicich was mauled to death by her bull-mastiff, the family pet and, also last year, Canberra woman Tania Klemke was killed by her pit bull when she intervened as the dog was attacking her friend.\nA 10-year-old Melbourne girl was saved by her neighbours last night as a dog \u201cwent berserk\u201d attacking her and leaving her with severe injuries.\nThe dog, believed to be a bull-mastiff, a large breed of dog linked to the English mastiff and the English bulldog, was seized by local rangers.\nBut the 10-year-old, who is said to be lucky to be alive, remains in a serious condition in hospital with serious injuries including bites and lacerations and is believed to have lost an ear.\nEnough is enough. If the death of a one-year-old child is not enough for action to be taken, I don\u2019t know what is.\nThere are hundreds of breeds of dogs in the world. If you have small children and you want to get a dog, choose a breed that is not likely to ever harm a child.\nEven better, get a small dog - one that is actually physically smaller than your toddler. Just don\u2019t risk an injury or a death because the heartache and devastation of losing a child would be absolutely horrific.\nIf any breed is powerful enough to kill a person, you shouldn\u2019t have it around a small child at all. But dog owners always \u201cknow best\u201d and believe they know their pet would never, ever harm a human.\nThe truth is, though, we don\u2019t really know and no matter how much we love our dogs, all dog owners must put the love of their kids first.\nAustralians have been great at banning guns - now it\u2019s time to ban dangerous dogs. What we need right now is federal legislation that ensures a tragedy like the death of little Kamillah never happens again.\nLet the death of Kamillah be another version of Port Arthur and the banning of guns; let us proudly say that, as a nation, we all said \u201cenough is enough\u201d and that the death of a one-year-old was the very last time such a tragedy has occurred.\nLet\u2019s put aside our love for these dangerous breeds and put the memory of Kamillah first, as well as the families who are still suffering from the loss of their loved ones at the hands of these breeds.\nCredit: LJ Charleston\nBan dangerous dogs\nONE-year-old is dead\nDangerous dogs are banned\nDog shot dead through driveway gate\nBy A.Shultz | Dog Breeders Sep 15, 2014\nDog performs CPR in mock demonstration\nVeterinarians use nanoparticles to deliver cancer treatment...",

        "raw_content": "Root Canal Treatment Calgary\nA root canal treatment is a procedure performed when the nerve within the tooth is no longer vital or almost non vital, which is most often caused by an infection that has developed in the tooth and/or the surrounding tissues. Instead of alternatively getting the infected tooth extracted, the patient may choose to salvage the tooth by proceeding with a root canal treatment.\nEvery tooth in your mouth has its own nerve. It gives color, strength and sensation to the tooth, and is what gives your teeth that chilled feeling when you bite into something cold like ice cream. A tooth\u2019s hard outer layer, enamel, helps protect that nerve. However, the nerve can be affected if the tooth has decay deep enough to reach the nerve or if there is trauma caused to the tooth such as a fall or some sort of impact. This will cause the nerve to become infected, creating an abscess. The tooth and area may also become very sensitive to hot and cold temperature or be painful to touch and pressure when biting. Antibiotics prescribed by a doctor or dentist can help minimize the infection but will not get rid of the infection all together. The source of the infection must be addressed or it will come back and a second round of antibiotics may not suffice as the body may begin to grow a tolerance. If left unseen by a dentist, the abscess can grow, creating a pus filled bubble on the gums near where the tip of the root would be, and can sometimes swell to the size of a baseball. The infection can also travel through your bloodstream and become life threatening. That is why it is very important to have the infected tooth taken care of before it gets to that point. A root canal treatment can help prevent further damage to the body, while still keeping your natural tooth intact.\nA root canal treatment can be done in 2 stages at the first appointment. The dentist will initially open up the tooth to relieve the pressure and pain, by administering medicine into the tooth and allowing the infection to drain for a few days.\nFollowing the drainage of infection, the patient returns for a subsequent appointment for the dentist to continue the root canal procedure. During this appointment the infected nerves are removed from the tooth and the canals are cleaned out. The disinfected canals are filled with a permanent material, creating a seal to the tip of the roots to prevent further infection developing within the tooth. An x-ray is then taken to ensure the canals are filled correctly. The number of canals in a tooth all depends on the placement of the tooth in the mouth. However, even then a tooth may have an extra canal or the canals may be calcified making it more difficult for a general dentist to get in and clean. In these situations, the patient would be referred to an endodontic (root canal) specialist who has more intricate tools to get into the tiny or calcified root.\nOnce a tooth had a root canal treatment, it starts to become brittle due to the lack of blood supply, leaving it at high risk of fracture. Getting a dental crown placed on the tooth helps prevent any further damage from happening to the tooth. Though the tooth has had its nerve removed, it is still susceptible to decay, meaning it must still be properly taken care of with daily brushing and flossing.",

        "title": "How to Fit a Small Block in Nearly Anything | DrivingLine",
        "raw_content": "Chevy Trucks, Classic Trucks, Small Block Engine, LTR, Engine Swap, GMC\nDuramax History, Lesson 1: LB7\nDuramax History, Lesson 6: L5P\n7 Trucks That Prove Your Grandpa Is Cool\nWe all want to go faster in our vehicles, and a lot of time, we're limited by the options available for each particular model. Though every engine can be modified for better performance, not all of them can produce big numbers. This is where the small block Chevy (SBC) has been the solution to many looking to gain some extra ponies.\nYes, there are other options in the world today, but none are more readily available or as easy to install. This revolutionary engine was first birthed over a half a century ago and since then, many aftermarket companies have perfected products to help them make more power. Because they are so common, there is no better bang for your buck when it comes to engine swaps. If you are on a tight budget, decent older blocks can be found for only a few bills. As long as the block is solid, you can rebuild it with one of the numerous kits on the market.\nIf you aren't so technically savvy, there are numerous crate engines on the market as well. Short blocks come with just the basics like the block, rods, pistons and crankshaft already assembled. For most, long blocks are the way to go, as you get everything a short block has plus heads and many other pieces depending on where you purchase one.\nOnce you\u2019ve decided to swap in a SBC, there are many things you will need to consider. For classic vehicles, many of them came with them this V8 as an option, so making one fit won\u2019t take too much effort. For other models of vehicles that were never equipped with a SBC, you should research what is needed to make one run. Sufficient air, fuel and power are the three basic components that make an engine like this work. When you have a running motor, you also need to control the throttle, keep it cool and have a means to transfer rotational force to the wheels.\nWhen it comes down to it, the elements to make a SBC run are very basic. There are no computers needed if you are running a carburetor, which makes it easy to drop one in just about anything. Size is pretty much the only thing that can be an obstacle. Also, keep in mind that it may not be emissions legal to run a SBC in a later-model vehicle in certain regions and it is your responsibility to research this\u2014but there are California emissions legal blocks available. Our \u201962 is emissions exempt, so we don\u2019t have to worry about it. If you can check all these boxes, you'll be able to take advantage of the 300+ hp these engines put out.\n\u201962 GMC Swap\nWhen we picked up this \u201962 GMC, it had a 305 ci V6 with 63k on the odometer. With relatively low miles on it, the original engine still ran OK for its age. That said, it had a few problems, like hard starts, leaking seals and exhaust, a faulty fuel pump and a dying starter. Since this motor is obsolete and no longer desirable, replacement parts are hard to come by\u2014if they're available at all. We knew that this engine was a ticking time bomb and it was only a matter of time before it gave out. Because it was giving us issues, we had let it sit while we saved up enough cash to swap in a better drivetrain.\nWe thought about building an engine, but it would have taken more time to get the truck back on the road. Our best option was to drop in a crate motor, so we ordered one from Blue Print Engines. With our budget, we decided on the dressed small-block package, which includes a 383 ci engine and roller-cam. Ours was dyno tested and proven to put out 444.5 hp and 475.5 lb-ft at the crank.\nThis dressed package came with many of the essential parts including Blue Print\u2019s 195 cc aluminum heads that are lightweight and optimized for maximum output. Our crate engine also came with an intake manifold, 750 cfm carburetor, HEI distributor, dip stick, oil pan, timing cover and valve covers. Though the engine came fairly complete, we did need to pick up a few parts to get it running in our \u201962 GMC. This included a serpentine belt kit, starter, harmonic damper, flex plate, fuel pump, spark plugs and spark wires. To keep costs down, we looked to Summit Racing Equipment to get us on the right track.\nThe biggest problem we had swapping this high-powered V8 into our particular model and year truck was that there weren\u2019t any engine mounts for our conversion. There are kits for other classic trucks but ours just happens to be an oddball model. To help with this and the installation time, we turned our project over to Devious Customs in Riverside, California. The skilled crew at the shop had our old engine pulled out and the Blue Print 383-stroker mounted within the first day. Of course, there was a lot more involved to get it all running, but after a few days of wrenching, the truck was alive again. If you want to know the step-by-step process of installing an SBC, keep reading.\nTo make way for the new SBC, our old V6 was ditched along with just about everything in the engine bay. A torch was used to remove the factory engine and transmission crossmember mounts, as we were going to have to fabricate new ones for this particular truck. This can also be done with a number of other tools like a plasma cutter, sawzall, grinder or a rotary tool with cut-off wheel.\nWe wanted the engine to power an alternator, water pump and power steering pump off the crank. First, we had to install an 8-inch harmonic damper and then the Summit Racing serpentine kit was prepped. There is an option for air-conditioning, but we decided against it since it was not a necessity.\nThe beauty of these engines is that they don\u2019t require much to get them running. To get the most basic element, fuel, to the engine, we installed a mechanical fuel pump. As the crankshaft turns over, the pump is activated to suck gas from the tank and deliver it to the carburetor to mix with air for combustion. Here we bolted it up and later we ran new fuel lines.\nWhen it comes to upgrading the transmission, there are many options, and most choose a three-speed to do the job. We opted for an overdrive 200 4R from California Performance Transmission, as this transmission is a three-speed with an overdrive gear for better fuel economy at highway speeds. This particular transmission also has better gear ratios, making for smoother shifts than other commonly used overdrive models. We made sure to get a 2,000-2,400 rpm stall torque converter, which matched the specs of our camshaft. A flex plate was bolted to the crank, followed by the torque converter and transmission.\nWith no prefabricated mounts for this engine and transmission package for our specific truck, we had to set it in position and build them. The carburetor was removed for a lift plate to be attached to the intake manifold to allow the unit to be raised. Most commonly used is an engine crane or cherry picker, but Devious Customs used a forklift. The distributor cap was removed for better clearance and the whole unit was tilted and lowered in. A floor jack was utilized to lift the rear of the transmission as the engine was lowered. Once in the engine bay, the motor was set to lean back at 3.5 degrees to line up with the drive line.\nWhen dropping in a new drivetrain, you will need to make sure that everything fits in place. Sometimes there will be a lack of clearance near the firewall or the vehicle\u2019s floor pan. Another common issue to watch for is oil pan clearance. In these cases you may have to modify the vehicle to make it fit. Fortunately, we did not have any of these issues and were ready to mount the engine. We used mounts with bushings from Energy Suspension and bolted them to the engine and transmission. Then custom mounts were made and welded to the truck.\nIn order to tell the engine to operate as desired when the go-pedal is mashed, the two need to be linked up. We used a Holley adjustable throttle return spring bracket and mounted it to the carb. There are two springs on it to help prevent the throttle from getting stuck in the open position. In the event that one of the springs breaks, there is another to rely on. We created a custom linkage to connect the throttle lever to the carb. The transmission cable was also hooked up to the carb and adjusted. Its purpose is to tell the transmission when to shift.\nTo expel spent gases from the engine compartment, an exhaust system needs to be attached. We were able to bolt on a set of mid-length Hedman headers to the aluminum heads of our engine. Again, with some vehicles there may not be a pre-made exhaust system. For this, we turned to a local muffler shop to bend some tubes with mufflers and attached them to the end of the headers. You can also see here that we installed some spark plugs, which were later wired to the distributor where we made sure to match them with their corresponding terminals.\nAnother thing to keep in mind with an engine swap is how to keep it cool. Though the original radiator might have worked, we didn\u2019t want to take any chances on this high-power engine. We dropped in this three-row aluminum radiator with 3,300 cfm electric fan from Flex-a-Lite to maintain adequate air-flow to keep coolant temperatures down. Later, we raided our local parts store to find a set of hoses to connect it to the water pump and thermostat port.\nHeat can be an issue for transmissions as well. To help keep ours cool we ordered an external unit that we also got from Flex-a-Lite. It was mounted in front of the radiator to make use of the fan\u2019s airflow. Once in position, we ran the proper lines to the cooler and from the ports on our 200 4R.\nWhen doing an engine swap you, should keep in mind that the distance between the transmission and the rearend will be different. After taking a few measurements, we took our specs to a local driveline shop and had this driveshaft made. With our power rating of the SBC, they recommended a 4-inch aluminum driveshaft.\nAs the engine was all set up, we needed to configure our fuel storage. Originally, our truck had a tank mounted in the back of the cab. This was a terrible design as fumes were always present. Also, the tank was corroded inside, which is bad for engine performance. We decided to replace it with a stainless steel tank from Rick\u2019s Tanks. Though many people use aluminum tanks, they can crack over time. We made sure to have ours prepped for a carbureted engine and mounted it in the rear of the frame. A level sensor was installed and then the hoses were attached.\nPerforming a swap of this kind can require many parts to make it functional. Since we didn\u2019t want to spend countless hours trying to figure how to make the factory gauges work with the new engine, we ordered and hooked up a system from Auto Meter. Leaving one less wire to hook up, our speedometer is now triggered by a GPS antenna mounted on our dash.\nThough the old steering column did have a shifter for the manual transmission, we decided to get a new Flaming River steering column to make it easier to connect to our new automatic trans. We were also able to get a tilting version with an indicator for our overdrive transmission. Then, the lever portion of it was linked to the shift lever on the transmission with the use of a kit from Lokar Performance Products.\nAfter everything was installed, the motor was filled with all the proper fluids including oil, coolant, power steering fluid and automatic transmission fluid (for new engines, break-in oil is recommended for the first 500 miles). Then it was wired up to a battery and the starter was wired to the original ignition system. The next steps were to adjust the engine timing on the distributor and fine-tune the carburetor.\nWith the swap finalized, we were ready to take advantage of our new engine. Making sure all the pieces of this puzzle work properly is not child\u2019s play, but it was all worth it in the end. Planting in this new SBC made our truck function better than ever. It also came with the benefits of roasting the rear tires whenever we want to and that always brings a smile to our face.\nNot every amazing classic truck has to be old. This '57 Chevy proves it.",

        "raw_content": "Chemistry For Dummies Cheat Sheet\nFrom Chemistry For Dummies, 2nd Edition\nDuring the first year of high school chemistry or the first semester of college chemistry, all the terms, units of measurement, and atoms, molecules, elements, and compounds may seem a bit overwhelming. The good news: Your Chem I class doesn\u2019t have to be torture. This handy Cheat Sheet provides some basic information you can refer to regularly to make your chemistry class just a tiny bit easier.\nChemical Bonding Basics\nIn bonding, atoms lose, gain, or share electrons in order to have the same number of electrons as the noble gas that\u2019s nearest on the periodic table. Ionic, covalent, and metallic bonds are formed by combinations of metals and nonmetals.\nMetal + nonmetal = ionic bond\nNonmetal + nonmetal = covalent bond\nMetal + metal = metallic bond\nWhen two elements engage in ionic bonding, one or more electrons are transferred from the metal to the nonmetal, forming ions (charged atoms). The metal, having lost one or more electrons, forms a cation, an ion with a positive charge; the nonmetal, having gained one or more electrons, becomes an anion, an ion with a negative charge.\nWhen two elements form a covalent bond, one or more electron pairs are shared between these two elements. In metallic bonding, which occurs in metals (either a pure metal or an alloy of two or more metals), the valence (outer shell) electrons are donated to a \u201csea of electrons.\u201d\nChemistry Concepts: Energy Levels and Orbitals\nA lot of chemistry is explained by the sharing and trading of electrons between atoms. Understanding how electrons are arranged in an atom is a building block of Chem I.\nElectrons in an atom are contained in specific energy levels (1, 2, 3, and so on) that are different distances from the nucleus. The larger the number of the energy level, the farther it is from the nucleus. Electrons that are in the highest energy level are called valence electrons. Within each energy level is a volume of space where specific electrons are likely to be located. These spaces, called orbitals, are of different shapes, denoted by a letter (s, p, d, f, g). (In most cases, only the electrons contained in the s and p orbitals are considered valence electrons.) Electrons seek the lowest energy level possible.\nThe following electron-filling pattern indicates how the electrons fill into the energy levels. Knowing this pattern is useful in many aspects of chemistry, including predicting the bonding situation of a particular atom and in the prediction of the geometry of a covalent compound.\nElectron filling pattern: 1s, 2s, 2p, 3s, 3p, 4s, 3d, 4p, 5s, 4d, 5p, 6s, 4f, 5d, 6p, 7s, 5f\nDigging the Mole Concept in Chemistry\nThe mole (abbreviate mol and sometimes called Avogadro\u2018s number) is a conversion number that allows a chemist or chemistry student to move from the microscopic world of atoms, ions, and molecules to the macroscopic world of grams, kilograms, and tons. The mole is used in reaction stoichiometry to predict how much product can be made from a certain amount of reactant or how much reactant is required to produce a certain amount of product.\nIf you know the particles, moles, or grams of a substance, you can calculate the other two measurements by using the following equation:\n1 mole = 6.022 \u00d7 1023 particles/mol = formula weight expressed in grams\nIdentifying Isotopes through Representations\nIn Chem I, you may have to identify isotopes, which are atoms of the same element that have different numbers of neutrons. The following representation allows you to identify a specific isotope of an element. It is used extensively in balancing nuclear reactions.\nX = element symbol\nZ = atomic number (number of protons)\nA = mass number (number of protons + number of neutrons)\nCommon Measurement Conversions for Chemistry\nIn order to succeed in your Chem I class, you need to have a firm understanding of basic chemistry measurements and how to convert them from one measurement to another. Following are some important conversions of temperature, size, and pressure as well as metric prefixes to memorize for your chemistry class:\n\u00b0F = 9/5(\u00b0C) + 32\n\u00b0C = 5/9(\u00b0F \u2013 32)\nK = \u00b0C + 273\nEnglish/metric conversions:\n1 qt = 0.946 L\nPressure conversion:\n1atm = 760 mmHg = 760 torr\nCommon metric prefixes:\nmilli- = 0.001\ncenti- = 0.01\nkilo- = 1,000\nThe Basic Chemistry of Acids and Bases\nA lot of chemistry requires you to understand the difference between acids and bases. An acid is a substance that donates an H+ ion to another chemical species called a base. A base is a substance that accepts (combines with) an H+ ion.\nIf you need to know the concentration of the H+ ion in solution, you can do so by representing the H+ molarity, [H+]. Another way to represent the H+ concentration is the pH, which is the negative logarithm of the H+ molarity. The following equation shows this mathematical relationship as well as the way to calculate the H+ molarity given the pH:\npH = \u2013log[H+]; [H+] = 10\u2013pH\npH = 7 is neutral.\npH less than 7 is acidic.\npH greater than 7 is basic.\nThe Combined Gas Law and Ideal Gas Law\nWhen studying the properties of gases, you need to know the relationships between the variables of volume (V), pressure (P), Kelvin temperature (T), and the amount in moles (n) so that you can calculate missing information (P, V, T, or n) and solve reaction stoichiometry problems. Although the pairs of variables have individual relationships, the two most important and useful gas laws are the combined gas law and the ideal gas law:\nCombined gas law (P1V1)/T1\n(P2V2)/T2 (T must be in Kelvin)\nIdeal gas law PV = nRT (R = 0.0821 L atm/K.mol)",

        "raw_content": "\u2018I still want to improve\u2019 \u2013 U\u2019s keeper Gilmartin\nKeeper Rene Gilmartin has been in fine form for the U's, although he could not keep out this equalising goal from Jon Stead in last month's 3-3 draw against Notts County. Picture: STEVE WALLER WWW.STEPHENWALLER.COM\nRene Gilmartin will be gunning for another clean-sheet, when Cheltenham Town are the visitors for a League Two clash tomorrow.\nRene Gilmartin, left, celebrates with team-mate Ryan Jackson after the 1-0 win over leaders Lincoln City at the end of October. Picture: STEVE WALLER\nThe upwardly-mobile U\u2019s triumphed 4-0 on the road at mid-table Northampton Town last weekend, to move to within one point of the play-off zone.\nFor Gilmartin, it was his eighth clean-sheet of the campaign, from 16 senior appearances, an impressive ratio of one clean-sheet per every two games.\nAnd for the U\u2019s, it was their 14th clean-sheet of the campaign, when added to the six shut-outs achieved by fellow keeper Dillon Barnes.\n\u201cPersonally, I\u2019m pleased with the way things are going,\u201d enthused Gilmartin, following yesterday\u2019s training session at Florence Park, Tiptree.\nU's keeper Rene Gilmartin, looking for another clean-sheet against Cheltenham Town tomorrow. Picture: STEVE WALLER\n\u201cWe had a good win for the group last weekend, and a clean-sheet is always nice. So I am very happy.\n\u201cI had to describe last weekend\u2019s performance (4-0 win at Northampton) to the people back home (in his native Ireland), because I was actually quite busy. I had to make a few saves, and had quite a bit to do. Northampton launched many long throws from both sides, and they put the ball into the box very quickly.\n- U\u2019s boost as Luke Norris returns to training\n\u201cBut that\u2019s how I expect it to be, between now and the end of the season.\n\u201cLast weekend\u2019s win has put a spring in the step, but then we never get too down, and we never get too high, during the season.\n\u201cWe dominated the match, and could have scored five or six goals. They put us under a bit of pressure, but we weathered that storm.\n\u201cThe new signings have certainly helped. As a squad we have been on a high all season, but it\u2019s good to have some fresh faces and some different characters in the dressing room. They have given everyone a lift,\u201d added Gilmartin.\nThe U\u2019s 31-year-old keeper, and goalkeeping coach, was referring to the trio of new signings who arrived last week, before the transfer window slammed at the end of the month.\nAbo Eisa, on loan from Shrewsbury, scored the U\u2019s second and set up the third, as a half-time substitute at Northampton, while Ben Stevenson (signed from Wolves) delivered the corner for the opening goal. Likewise, Callum Roberts, on loan from Newcastle United, made a favourable impact as a late substitute by earning a penalty, which Harry Pell unfortunately missed.\nStevenson should retain his place in central midfield against Cheltenham, while Eisa and Roberts will be pushing for their first starts.\n\u201cYou can say that Cheltenham at home is a \u2018nice\u2019 game, but it\u2019s another good test for us and we want to put on a performance,\u201d continued Gilmartin.\n\u201cIf we get the performances right, then the results will come, although sometimes in the winter months \u2013 when it is blowing a gale and it\u2019s very wet \u2013 then the performances become secondary and it\u2019s all about just getting the result.\n\u201cWe can play most teams off the park, on a good surface, with our high intensity, but sometimes you have to adapt to the conditions.\n\u201cWe just have to make sure that we get enough wins to stay around it (the top seven),\u201d added Gilmartin.\nHaving begun his career at Walsall (2005-10), Gilmartin later had two spells at Watford, mostly as a squad player rather than as a starting keeper.\nWhen the Hornets won promotion to the Premier League, in 2014, he was recruited as a back-up keeper to Heurelho Gomes and Jonathan Bond, although he never actually made a top-flight appearance .\nSimilarly, his first season with the U\u2019s, in 2017-18, saw him play the role as an understudy to Sam Walker. He made just a couple of outings in the EFL Trophy.\nBut Walker\u2019s summer switch to Reading has given Gilmartin a new lease of life, in terms of his playing career, in addition to carrying on his role as a coach.\n\u201cI want to bring more into my game. I still want to improve as a keeper,\u201d said Gilmartin.\n\u201cI love the dual role that I have. I still want to develop the keepers that we have at this football club, and boost their drive to take my jersey. In fact, I think the goalkeeping department is in a very good place at the moment.\n\u201cJust as strikers aim to score goals, so keepers aim for clean-sheets. I want to instil that into the team, and I have a good rapport with Luke Prosser \u2013 he is the skipper and the voice in the dressing room \u2013 down the spine of the team.\n\u201cPlaying football is huge. I was a squad footballer at Watford, and I would have been disappointed if I had not gone on to play more games when I left.\u201d",

For their Moms, it is also a big deal. It is a rite of passage \u2013 it requires letting go.\nWe all face those moments throughout our lives. Time and circumstance repeatedly require that we let go of what we know \u2013 the old, the familiar, the comfortable \u2013 and embrace the \u2018next\u2019. It requires letting go and moving on.\nThere are people who spend their whole lives resisting those moments. They hold on, physically or energetically to the past, and they never really find peace in the present. Whether we must move beyond a person, a property, an employment, a location, an activity or something else, we have only two choices. We can go gently and easily \u2013 or not.\nWe can go confidently \u2013 or fearfully. We can go looking forward \u2013 or looking back. We can hold on, or we can let go.\nWhat has been, whether you judge it good or bad, has been filled with lessons, and blessings, and experiences. Honor them all. Take the time to remember with gratitude and appreciation. Understand that nothing you have every done will ever be lost. The energy will be a part of you forever. It has made you what you are today.\nWhat will be, will be what you create. If you move forward hopefully, happily, expectantly and joyfully, then that will be your new experience.\nWe can drag the past with us as heavy baggage, or we can carry the blessings and memories of the past as a beautiful memento. That is what letting go and moving on is all about. We can face the future with apprehension or with faith. One thing is certain. There will always be a past we must make peace with. There will always be a future we must live.\nThe way we let go can make all the difference.",

The United States and the USSR (Union of Soviet Socialist Republics) fought on the same side in World War II.\n3. Some experts believe the Cold War started after World War I, not World War II.\n4. Scientific research benefited from military funding during the Cold War.\n5. The economies of Eastern Europe improved after the break up of the USSR.\n6. The U.S. issued Cold War Recognition Certificates to the armed forces and some federal personnel who served during the Cold War.\n7. Some countries refused to take sides during the Cold War. They were called non-aligned countries.\nThe Cold War was a period of military competition with the United States and Western Europe on one side and the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe on the other.\nIt started in 1945 at the end of World War II when the Allied powers disagreed on how Europe should be divided after the war.\nAlthough the USA and the USSR never fought each other directly, they participated in wars that took place in other countries.\nThe biggest threat during the Cold War was the possible use of nuclear weapons.\nIf nuclear weapons had been used, it could have led to the mutual assured destruction of the warring countries and the destruction of the rest of the world.\nThe Cold War also included political conflict and economic competition. This led to spying and technological competition.\nThe US Space Program started in earnest when the Soviets launched Sputnik I in 1957. Sputnik was the first artificial object to orbit the Earth.\nThe US and its allies wanted to stop the spread of communism. Communism is an economic system where land and businesses are owned and controlled by a single-party government. Private ownership is not allowed.\nCapitalism saw communism as a threat to its expansion. Capitalism is an economic system where land and businesses are owned by private individuals and companies.\nCompetition between the two sides led to an arms race. An arms race is when countries spent large sums of money on military personnel, equipment, and weapons research.\nCold War events:\n1. Eastern Bloc\n2. Containment of Communism\n3. Berlin Blockade\n6. China-Soviet split\n7. Berlin Crisis\n8. Cuban Missile Crisis\n9. Soviet War in Afghanistan\n10.Polish Solidarity\n11.Gorbachev Reforms\n12.USSR Dissolution\nThe Soviet economy stagnated. It never provided the high standard of living that was enjoyed by western countries.\nThe Cold War ended in 1991 when the USSR was dissolved. Gorbachev's reforms had opened a floodgate of change that couldn't be controlled.",

        "title": "EXCLUSIVE: Employers need to know that \u201ctransitioning is a journey\u201d",
        "raw_content": "news UK Employee wellbeing Healthcare and wellbeing Events\nBy Katie Scott\t 3rd October 2018 8:53 am 3rd October 2018 8:53 am\nEmployee Benefits Live 2018: Employers need to be aware that gender \u201ctransitioning is a journey; it doesn\u2019t necessarily have a prescribed end\u201d when considering strategies around diversity and inclusion and employee wellbeing.\nIn a session titled \u2018Gender dysphoria: the individual, the workplace and the healthcare provider\u2019, Pete Mercer, head of public sector membership programmes at lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) charity Stonewall, Joanne Mason, former chair at transgender organisation Sparkle, and Peter Mills, European medical director at health insurer Cigna Global Health Benefits discussed how organisations can be more transgender inclusive within the workplace as part of the HR strategy conference stream on Tuesday 2 October 2018.\nFor Mercer, inclusivity is not a tick box exercise. \u201cInclusion is never done. Organisations have to be able to change,\u201d he said. To achieve this, he outlined a five-step process that can help employers become more inclusive in their practices. Firstly, employers should ensure to educate themselves, using a variety of platforms, in order to gain a broad understanding of trans-inclusive issues. Topics employers could research include transgender identities and how diverse and different these can be, language and terminology, relevant legislation and legal responsibilities and examples of transphobia.\nNext, Mercer recommended that employers look to update their HR policies. This could include, for example, amending the organisation\u2019s harassment, discrimination, bullying and parental policies to ensure equality across all employees and to confirm that these address trans-specific issues too. Thirdly, organisations should create a proactive action plan to help steer inclusion activity. This should feature milestones, have clearly defined stages and be consistent across the entirety of the business. Employers may want to include gender identity training and the introduction of a LGBT employee network group as part of this approach.\nMercer then suggested that employers promote an organisational commitment to inclusion; this can include formal policies and more mundane considerations, such as physical workplace facilities. Lastly, employers should look to develop a specific transitioning at work policy to support staff who may wish to undergo this in the future. This should include a policy document, definition document, manager guide and a frequently asked questions document, to help dispel myths around gender dysphoria and the transitioning process.\nA detailed inclusion process such as this could have been of use to Mason when she underwent her own transition journey at the end of 2016 and in early 2017. However, her experiences paint a very different picture, as she left her IT career because business leaders were not accepting of her identity after she started her transition journey.\nFor Mason, a key learning for employers is that monitoring is important once an employee returns to work after starting their gender transition journey. This, ideally, could take the shape of gathering regular employee feedback, just to check in to see how the employee is coping and ask whether there is anything else the business can do to support them. Mason explained: \u201cThe takeaway from my experience of transitioning at work is: don\u2019t just put the boat in water and push it and let it go. [Employers] have got to monitor things as they go along, they\u2019ve got to look for signs if things are going wrong and discover problems as well, which [employers] may not be aware about.\u201d\nOn the healthcare provision side, employers looking to provide support to their employees in this area may find a lack of facilities could be a hindrance. Cigna\u2019s Mills explained that in the UK, there are only 11 NHS gender identity clinics, with one in Wales due to open at the end of the year. On the private healthcare side, there are two private clinics in this field.\nDespite this, there are still options employers can investigate, such as early consultations, counselling and hormone therapies. \u201cThis is not a new issue for society or individuals; it\u2019s one now that we\u2019re thankfully embracing and looking at in a sensible fashion,\u201d Mills concludes. \u201cTransitioning in a trans person is a journey, it\u2019s not necessarily the classic journey, it doesn\u2019t necessarily have a prescribed end to it. It\u2019s like a train station, but [employees] don\u2019t have to necessarily go to the end of the line.\u201d\nMore than half of young women would not challenge boss on gender pay gap\nBaker McKenzie includes gender identity counselling in PMI scheme\n21st August 2018 6:00 am 22nd August 2018 12:07 pm\nWhat support should PMI offer transgender employees?\n21st August 2018 6:00 am 21st August 2018 3:48 pm",

        "raw_content": "Home Environment Encyclopedias almanacs transcripts and maps Migration and Religion\nMigration and Religion\nMIGRATION AND RELIGION . Migration almost always affects religion. This is so because when people migrate to a new place they alter routines of daily life, and new experience inevitably acts upon even the most tenaciously held religious tradition. Conversely, religion often inspires migration.\nOrganized religious groups may decide to move to a place where their pursuit of holiness will face fewer obstacles. Some successful colonies of this kind played important historic roles by defining patterns of conduct for larger, less religiously incandescent communities that succeeded them.\nAmong Christians and Muslims, though rarely for other religions, armed migration also played an important part in spreading and defending the faith. Crusade and jih\u0101d, between them, defined the frontier between D\u0101r al-Isl\u0101m and Christendom for more than a millennium, from the first Muslim conquests of the seventh century until the secularized statecraft of the eighteenth pushed religious antipathy to the margins of military enterprise. The Muslim conquest of India (eleventh to seventeenth century) was likewise sustained by a flow of fighting men who came to Hindustan in order to combat infidelity, and, perchance, to acquire fame and wealth in the process.\nPersonal and private pursuit of holiness has also inspired innumerable pilgrims to visit shrines that are usually located where their religion originated or had its earliest efflorescence. A contrary flow of holy men beyond the frontiers of the society of their birth has often led to the conversion of strangers, even across linguistic and cultural barriers. Overall and in general we may therefore say that religiously inspired migration, whether peaceable or warlike, had a great deal to do with the definition of civilizational and cultural frontiers in historic times.\nPilgrimage affirmed and helped to homogenize religious and secular culture within each civilization. It became especially important for Islam. Long after the caliphate collapsed, the thousands of pilgrims who traveled to Mecca each year from all over the Muslim world maintained a loose but effective unity among the community of the faithful. Holy war and peaceable conversion on the other hand, enhanced heterogeneity by bringing new populations within the circle of one or another religion from time to time. Diversity did not bother Hindus and Buddhists very much, but new frictions arose among Jews, Christians, and Muslims with every missionary success, since converts inevitably retained some remnants of older \"pagan\" outlooks and habits. For these faiths, therefore, local and sectarian diversity remained in perpetual conflict with the ideal of uniform and punctilious obedience to God's will as authoritatively defined by religious experts and administrators.\nSecond only to crusade and counter-crusade, religiously inspired collective migrations offer the most dramatic manifestations of how human motility and religiosity interact. The migrants' goal, of course, is to find a place where the will of God can be more perfectly obeyed. Undoubtedly, most sectarian enterprises of this sort do not last very long. The mass suicide of Jim Jones's followers in the jungles of Guyana in 1978 was a reminder of how such ventures may collapse in grisly failure. At the other extreme, the Puritans of Massachusetts and the Mormons of Utah dominated their chosen localities for generations and still influence the mainstream of American life. In Russia, communities of Old Believers played almost as prominent a part, for they, too, throve on the frontiers and influenced the wider community around them by pioneering privately managed trade and industry in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.\nIn the deeper past, monastic communities offered the most important examples of collective migration undertaken for religious reasons. Buddhist, Daoist, Shint\u014d, and Christian monasteries were often set up in remote rural localities where the monks' devotion and learning propagated and sustained the faith among surrounding populations while also providing a focus for economic exchange and (at least sometimes) for political activity as well. Such monastic centers were especially important in times and places where towns were absent or poorly developed, and tended to become marginal in proportion to the rise of secular urban centers.\nThe initial establishment of such monasteries was achieved by deliberate, collective migration of bodies of monks or nuns. Subsequent recruitment came from far and wide, since the inhabitants did not reproduce themselves. Monastic establishments thus depended on and could only thrive by retaining connection with the currents of personal migration in search of holiness that flowed within (and sometimes between) each of the Eurasian civilizations.\nPrivate, personal migration for religious reasons is difficult to document since itinerant holy men, living on alms, seldom recorded their experience in writing. The forest retreats of ancient India where the Upani\u1e63ads were generated constitute the oldest attested examples of personal, private migration away from the toils of ordinary society in order to pursue religious enlightenment and truth. They were, perhaps, archetypical. At any rate, India's warm climate was propitious since it allowed seekers after holiness to survive on little food and with little clothing. The ascetic way of life, in turn, encouraged and sustained mystic visions of transcendental reality\u2014visions that validated the holy way of life and confirmed the aspiration of escaping from the ills of this world by entering into contact with suprasensory reality.\nTransient and personal master-disciple relationships among Indian holy men took a new and enduring form among the followers of Gautama, the Buddha. For, on the occasion of his death (484 bce), the Buddha's followers defined a holy way of life that combined itinerant mendicancy with periods of rest and recuperation in specially constructed monasteries. Following this regimen, Buddhist monks soon penetrated far beyond the borders of India, traveling along the caravan routes of Asia to the Far East and boarding merchant vessels bound for Southeast Asia as well. In ensuing centuries, holy men of other faiths (Manichaeans and Nestorian Christians especially) adopted similar modes of life. Later still, Daoists and adherents of Shint\u014d established monastic communities modeled more or less closely on the Buddhist prototype.\nWandering holy men, whether of the Buddhist or some other persuasion, had much in common with the merchant-peddlers who frequented the same trade routes. Indeed, these itinerant holy men were a kind of merchant whose stock-in-trade consisted of esoteric knowledge and personal experience of the transcendental world. They lived, in effect, by exchanging their special access to the supernatural for the alms that sustained their bodily wants.\nMainstream Christianity and Islam went in opposite directions in developing the Buddhist pattern of religiously motivated migration. Early in the history of Christian asceticism, monastic rules inhibited the private pursuit of holiness by itinerant almstakers. Yet this did not prevent the systematic establishment of new monasteries at distant frontier locations. Rather, monasteries played a leading role in spreading Christian civilization beyond the borders of the Roman Empire, both in the west among Germanic peoples and in the east among the Slavs. Then, after the voyages of discovery by Europeans during the sixteenth century, missionary orders met with enormous success in converting Amerindians to Roman Catholicism, but failed to win many Asians or Africans to their faith. Protestant missions flourished mainly in the nineteenth century, and probably converted more Asians and Africans to the secular aspects of Western civilization than to their various versions of Christianity.\nWithin the realm of Islam, on the other hand, the initial effort to make the entire community perfectly obedient to God left no room for monks or any other kind of specially holy personages. The Qur\u02be\u0101n accordingly forbade monastic vows. As a result, when the first burst of conquest came to a halt, pious Muslim merchants took over the missionary role that had been exercised for other faiths by monks and other religious specialists. Thus with the advent of Islam the convergence between missionary and merchant, already apparent in Buddhist practice, became complete.\nTo be sure, from the twelfth century onward, dervish communities, somewhat analogous to the monastic orders of other religions, arose within Islam. They flourished most in the frontier lands where the expanding Turkish power encountered the Christian populations of Asia Minor and the Balkans. Dervish forms of piety had an important role in converting Christians to Islam along that frontier, but the dervishes never escaped the taint of heterodoxy.\nThere is profound irony in the upshot of all these various religiously motivated patterns of migration. Puritans of New England as much as Old Believers in Russia, along with all the variegated company of monks and holy men who propagated Hinduism, Buddhism, Christianity, and other faiths along remote frontiers, all sought to escape from the corruptions of civilized society as exemplified in their initial homelands. Yet the net effect of their efforts at withdrawal and pursuit of a more perfect obedience to the precepts of their religion was to spread civilized skills and knowledge among previously simpler societies. Institutional success in the form of flourishing monastic or civil communities, dedicated to holiness though they might be, perversely propagated the very corruptions of civilization which the founders had so earnestly wished to escape from. Of course, discrepancy between intentions and accomplishments is normal in human affairs, but the gap is seldom so patent as in these instances.\nSecular Motives\nMigration undertaken for other than religious reasons also had the overall effect of spreading civilized complexity. Its immediate impact on religion was usually to provoke some sort of blending of old and new traditions as immigrants encountered new peoples and new conditions of life along with alien faiths and religious practices. But religious interactions exhibited many variations, depending on conditions of the encounters and on choices individual leaders and teachers made in coping with unprecedented novelties.\nIf one seeks to make sense of such diversity it is useful to distinguish between migrations that carry a particular population up a cultural gradient and migrations that carry people in an opposite direction toward frontiers where civilized institutions weaken or disappear.\nA people that moves up a cultural gradient may do so as conqueror or captive. Peaceable infiltration of individuals or small family groups is also theoretically possible but remained statistically unimportant until the nineteenth century, when the advent of superior public peace, efficient communications, and mechanically powered transport made that kind of migration feasible on a mass scale for the first time. It follows that the Israelites' conquest of Canaan on the one hand and the African slave trade on the other are the appropriate models for most historical migration, unlike the sort of individual and family migration that did so much to populate the United States between the 1840s and 1920s.\nIn matters of religion, conquerors and captives alike have three options when arriving in lands whose skills are superior to their own. The newcomers may accept the established religion of the land to which they have come, retaining only a few telltale traces of their own older practices. The Akkadian invaders of ancient Sumer seem to have accepted this option at the very beginning of civilized history; Turks coming into the realm of Islam either as slaves or as conquerors did the same. So did the African slaves imported to North America to work on plantations.\nSlaves had little choice as a rule. Forcibly separated from the social context that had nurtured them, they could not, as more or less isolated individuals, carry very much of their native religion with them. Conquerors, however, were in a position to choose. Nevertheless, simple maintenance of accustomed rites and ideas was seldom possible. New experiences, ideas, and circumstances crowded in on successful conquerors. To resist their subjects' religions took a special effort, all the more difficult in view of the fact that the established rituals of the land were already adapted to the circumstances of civilized and agricultural life.\nThe Bible record shows how hard it was for the Israelites to maintain their desert faith in the land of Canaan after settling down to an agricultural existence. Energetic, violent means were needed to repress Baal worship. This was the work of kings and prophets, who in reaffirming the old religion in fact transformed it. That transformation is what made Judaism so enormously influential in the world at large, but its influence also attests the exceptional character of the prophetic response to the conditions of agricultural civilization.\nOther invaders who rejected the religion of the land they had conquered were nonetheless affected by contact with people of a different faith. This happened even when the subjected population accepted the faith of their conquerors en masse. The contamination of Turkish Islam with Christian elements was a pronounced feature of Ottoman life, for example, while the Mughals in India alternated between a policy of permitting and resisting the parallel contamination of their faith with Hindu practices and ideas. A similar situation prevailed in the crusading states of the Levant, and when the Mongol Empire was at its height, Khubilai Khan's policy of patronizing all available religions, so as not to foreclose any avenue of access to the supernatural, shocked and puzzled Christians and Muslims alike.\nA third policy that attracted many \"barbarian\" conquerors was to try for the best of both worlds by espousing a heretical form of civilized religion. This marked the conquerors off from their subjects and helped to maintain a collective esprit de corps among the invaders, while also allowing the new rulers to benefit from advantages of civilized religion\u2014for example, literacy, an authoritative scripture, and a hierarchical priesthood. The German tribesmen who adhered to Arian Christianity when invading the Roman Empire in the fourth and fifth centuries followed such a policy. The Uighurs, who became Manichaeans, and the Khazars, who became Jews, illustrate a variation on the same theme, for the religions of their choice served to mark them off from neighbors and subjects while at the same time offering rulers the support of a fully civilized faith.\nNevertheless, such barbarian polities were transitory and so were the heresies they found attractive. The reactions that mattered were assimilation to civilized forms of religion on the one hand and inventive rejection on the other that has been so central in the history of Judaism, of Shint\u014d, and, since the mid-nineteenth century, to the evolution of Hinduism and Islam as well.\nMigrations undertaken for economic or political reasons that carry a people to lands less developed than those they leave behind ordinarily have less impact on traditional religious practices. The Chinese migration from north to south that created the imposing mass of contemporary China, for example, had no very obvious effect on Chinese religion. The same may be said of Japanese expansion northward through their islands and of the German Drang nach Osten.\nOnly in modern times did it become possible for family groups and isolated individuals to migrate safely toward an open frontier. In such circumstances, of course, pioneers left organized religion behind. This prepared the ground for itinerant revivalists. Emotionally vibrant forms of established religion fared best in such circumstances, with conspicuous individual conversion the goal.\nProletarian migrants into cities faced circumstances similar in some important respects to the deculturation and individual isolation of the rural frontier. It is not really surprising therefore that the Methodists who first addressed themselves to unchurched urban populations of Great Britain were also among the most successful on the American frontier.\nOther varieties of religious revivalism are currently flourishing among urban immigrants, both in the United States and beyond its borders. Islamic revivalism is the most politically prominent of such movements, but sectarian forms of Christianity also have a vigorous life in American cities and in many developing nations, while offshoots of Buddhism can also be observed making headway in urban contexts, both Eastern and Western. Marxism, too, is no more than a secular heresy competing in this environment for human commitment to its materialist doctrines.\nIn the world at large, as populations increase and migratory flows swell to unexampled proportions, religious interminglings and interactions\u2014both hostile and pacific\u2014are sure to intensify. The future history of humankind will in all likelihood be written around the clash of religions and cultures that is taking place around us, for secular thought and abstract reasoning are weak reeds by comparison with the tidal flows of faith and feeling that govern human conduct today as much as at any time in the past.\nCrusades; Jih\u0101d; Mendicancy; Missions; Monasticism; Pilgrimage; Zionism.\nCurtin, Philip D.

        "raw_content": "Home Religion Encyclopedias almanacs transcripts and maps la Rochefoucauld\nAn ancient French aristocratic family, originating in the town of La Rochefoucauld (Charente), well known since the 12th century and presently divided into three branches: the main branch of the La Rochefoucaulds and the families of the Ducs of Estisse and De Doudeauville.\nFran\u00e7ois de, cardinal; b. Paris, Dec. 8, 1558; d. Sainte-Genevi\u00e8ve, Feb. 14, 1645. Fran\u00e7ois, orphaned at the age of four by the death of his father on the battlefield, was reared by an uncle, Jean de la Rochefoucauld, Abbot of Marmoutier, and educated at the Jesuit College of Clermont. Appointed abbot of Tournus at the age of 15, he proved himself, despite his youth, an excellent ecclesiastical administrator. He finished his theological and classical education in Rome, and became bishop of Clermont (1584). Protestantism was very strong in his diocese, but the young bishop was successful in reconquering it fully for Catholicism. He did not participate in the religious wars of his age, but he refused to recognize henry iv as King of France till the latter's conversion to Catholicism. Subsequently, close relations were established between the bishop and the monarch. Bishop de La Rochefoucauld became cardinal on the personal intervention of Henry IV at Rome (1607). The cardinal was a deeply respected adviser to the court during the minority of Louis XIII. Appointed bishop of Senlis, he was sent to Rome as royal ambassador. As a diplomatist, he supported the decrees of the Council of Trent, with strong reservations, however, since he was deeply attached to the Gallican Church and the interests of the French monarchy. In 1618 he became great almoner of France, abbot of Sainte-Genevi\u00e8ve in 1619, and then president of the State Council. Two years later, he resigned as president, and consecrated himself to the re-form of religious orders. He founded the Congregation of Sainte-Genevi\u00e8ve, known also as the Congregation of France. He was also vice dean of the College of Cardinals.\nFran\u00e7ois de, litterateur, moralist, known first as the Prince of Marsillac; b. Paris, Sept. 15, 1613; d. Paris, March 17, 1680. As a youth, he participated in various military campaigns and in the continuous intrigues of his aristocratic world against Cardinal de Richelieu. He even played a part in the plot of Cinq-Mars. This was the beginning of a series of political adventures, plots, and rebellions first against Richelieu, then against Mazarin. During the Fronde, he unsuccessfully plotted the murder of Cardinal de Retz and, in the battle of the Faubourg of Saint-Antoine, he was seriously wounded and lost his eyesight for a short period. After 1653 La Rochefoucauld lived in retirement and devoted his time to writing his M\u00e9moires and Maximes morales. The most celebrated and witty women of his age, Mmes. de Sabl\u00e9, de Lafayette, and de S\u00e9vign\u00e9 were his constant companions. Louis XIV showered him with royal favors. His M\u00e9moires were first published in 1662 in Cologne, although the author disavowed this edition. This work, republished in 1817, is a revelation concerning the history of the Fronde. The original title of the Maximes is Reflections ou sentences et maximes morales; the Saint-Beuve edition (1853) is considered the best. Voltaire said that the Maximes with their high literary value, their deep intellectual honesty, and their precise style greatly contributed to the development of the French sense of taste.\nRochefoucauld-Bayers, Fran\u00e7ois Joseph de la, Bl., bishop of Beauvais; b. Angoul\u00eame, March 28, 1755; d. Paris, Sept. 2, 1792. A representative of the clergy in the States General of 1789, he defended the privileges of the clergy and the court. Soon he and his brother Pierre Louis, Bishop of Senlis, were declared \"enemies to the constitutional monarchy.\" The two prelates fled to their sister, the Abbess of Soissons (Marie-Charlotte de la Rochefoucauld). Unwilling to compromise their sister, they returned to Paris. There Rochefoucauld-Bayers, Bishop of Beauvais, was arrested and jailed in the infamous prison of Carmes. Soon his brother, the bishop of Senlis, was arrested also and detained in the same jail. Both were murdered during the general massacre of political prisoners on Sept. 2, 1792.\nFeast: Sept. 2\nBibliography: g. de la rochefoucauld, Un Homme d'\u00e9glise et d'\u00e9tat\u2026: Le Cardinal F. de la Rochefoucauld (Paris 1926). m. bishop, The Life and Adventures of Rochefoucauld (Ithaca 1951). \u00c9. magne, Le Vrai visage de La Rochefoucauld (Paris 1923). p. caron, Les Massacres de Septembre (Paris 1935).

        "raw_content": "Netflix lands Eddie Murphy for 'Dolemite' biopic\nThe Nutty Professor is back.\nYou might remember him as Billy Ray Valentine, Sherman Klump, or Donkey -- but after a brief hiatus from the spotlight, Eddie Murphy is poised to return in Netflix's Dolemite Is My Name. The film, which Murphy will produce and star in, is a biopic about the late singer and actor Rudy Ray Moore.\nBefore transforming into a seventies cult classic, Dolemite was an urban legend. Moore self-baptized himself as Dolemite's theatrical ambassador, delivering audiences a humorous, politically incorrect tale of a wrongfully imprisoned pimp. Deadline reports that Murphy has been interested in the role \"for a decade\", and his prolific comedy career certainly positions him as a worthy successor. Murphy's star began rising in the eighties when he served as part of Saturday Night Live's regular cast; it continued to shine in Trading Places, slapstick sci-fi The Nutty Professor and Shrek.\nJoining Murphy in Dolemite is My Name are Scott Alexander and Larry Karaszewski, an Emmy award-winning screenwriting duo responsible for FX's critically acclaimed series American Crime Story. Production is scheduled to begin on June 12th.\nIn this article: av, entertainment",

        "raw_content": "On-Site Analysis of Contaminated Soils\nThe Tridion-9 portable GC-MS is able to conduct speciated VOC (Volatile Organic Compound) analysis of contaminated soil on-site and very quickly. This offers enormous advantages to anyone involved with the investigation or management of contaminated sites.\nDelays between sampling and the availability of results can incur substantial problems. For example, contaminated land remediation contractors require quick results in order to determine whether treatment is required, and to decide which remediation method is appropriate and what level of treatment is necessary. Similarly, pollution investigation teams need fast access to analytical data in order to determine the level of risk.\nAccredited laboratories are able to produce highly accurate analytical data, so the greatest problems often arise from sampling, storage, transport and chain of custody documentation issues. If samples are not supplied in the correct manner, laboratories will treat them as deviating (or non-conforming) which means that the results are unlikely to be acceptable for compliance monitoring reporting purposes.\nVOC speciation is often required, especially for those compounds which are most harmful. In addition, the results of screening procedures may be used to guide sample collection activities and can help identify which sampling and/or extraction methods are most effective.\nThe ability of the Tridion-9 to analyse multiple VOCs in soil was demonstrated by preparing a known sample spiked with 42 VOCs. This analysis was achieved without the need for laboratory equipment or solvents, and the results were obtained in less than 2 minutes.\nThe VOCs were extracted and concentrated from the soil using water, a salting-out technique, and a Custodion solid phase microextraction (SPME) syringe. In some cases, analytes co-eluted (e.g., 1,3-Dichloro-1-propene (E), Toluene, and 1,1,2-Trichloroethane compounds 15-17) but were positively identified by the target compound library using the automated on-board deconvolution algorithm.\nThis SPME/GC-MS sample analysis and screening method allows the fast accurate measurement of individual VOCs and their relative concentrations.",

Ben Affleck stars as Christian Wolff, a high-functioning autistic accountant extraordinaire who deals with some of the most dangerous people on the planet.

This blowout led to one of the worst environmental disasters in human history, and the largest oil spills in United States\u2019 history. Deepwater Horizon is not concerned with analyzing the aftermath of the blowout, the closing of the sea floor oil gusher, or the environmental damage of the oil spill. Deepwater Horizon is a terrific disaster film that focuses on the human element of the people trapped on the Horizon that fateful day. The film also doubles as a scathing indictment of BP and their policies.\nImage Via: deepwaterhorizon.movie.\nTags Deepwater Horizon, 2016, Movie Review, Mark Wahlberg, Kurt Russel, John Malkovich, Gina Rodriguez, Dylan O'Brien, Kate Hudson, Peter Berg, offshore oil drilling, Gulf of Mexico, Oil Spill, Oil Rig, BP, San Andreas, 2012, The Day After Tomorrow, Mike Williams, Mr. Jimmy, Evil Corporations, Donald Vidrine\nThe Girl on the Train (2016) Movie Review\nThe Girl on the Train (2016) is a simple mystery movie based on a book by the same name, both centering on the lives and extramarital affairs of three women and two men in Westchester County, New York. Rachael, (one of the aforementioned women) a divorced and lonely alcoholic, fantasizes about a gorgeous couple she sees while riding the train every day. The woman of that fantasy couple, Megan Hipwell, ends up missing.

The story involves the titular character spending thirty years stranded on a deserted island and has since been adapted dozens of times into other media. The Wild Life is an animated film adapted from Robinson Crusoe, unfortunately, it\u2019s god-awful. The film probably hoped to slip under the radar of late summer releases that generally bomb or go unnoticed by the masses.

Better yet, would you do stupid and dangerous things for money and notoriety? Obviously. Youtube, WorldStarHipHop, Tosh.0, and Ridiculousness are all testament to humanity\u2019s willingness to endanger their own lives for fleeting moments of fame and fortune as well as the insatiable need of others to watch it happen. Nerve combines this dark facet of human nature with portable technology to create the titular game, Nerve, in which players record themselves doing stupid things for money, and watchers pay to watch and dare players to do said stupid things. Nerve has a refreshingly original concept but the movie is kept from being great by several glaring flaws.\nImage via: respect-mag.com\nTags Nerve, 2016, Film Review, Movie Review, Watcher or Player, Teen Melodrama, PG-13, Dave Franco, Emma Roberts, High School, Game, Dares, Fight Club, Vee, Syndey, Emily Meade, Stupid Hacking, Staten Island, New York City\nLights Out (2016) Movie Review\nSeptember 22, 2016 Steve Baqqi\nLights Out is another in a series of refreshing horror movies that have been released this year. Lights Out revolves around a dysfunctional family haunted by a malevolent spirit who cannot come into contact with light of any kind. That simple explanation doesn\u2019t do the film justice. While the film isn\u2019t as original as it thinks (see Darkness Falls, a terrible movie), it is a surprisingly good low budget horror film relying on the old \u2018stay out of the dark\u2019 trope.\nImage Via: www.youtube.com.\nTags Lights Out, 2016, Horror, Movie, Dysfunctional Family, Darkness Falls, Low Budget, Stay Out Of The Dark, Rebecca, Martin, Teresa Palmer, Gabriel Bateman, Sophie, Maria Bello, Bret, Alexander DiPersia, Scary, David F.

Still, Don\u2019t Breathe is a simple and evocative title that matches the excellent trailer for the film. Don\u2019t Breathe has a fairly original premise for the home invasion sub-genre: three idiots decide to rob a blind guy, thinking he\u2019ll be easy prey. They quickly realize they messed with the wrong damn blind guy. The tables quickly turn on the idiot thieves and they become trapped The Blind Man\u2019s home while he stalks them.

        "raw_content": "Peak Vs Off Peak Wedding Considerations.\nBy Equally Wed - Posted on Monday, July 09, 2018\nDuring the planning process, which can take several months to a year, we recommend you use this time to attend showcases during various seasons. Wedding showcases offer you a chance to explore a venue in a more relaxed setting with the ability to talk to the staff openly.\nGenerally, they will have wedding professionals (i.e. celebrants & photographers) there as well to help with any questions regarding their services and the formalities of the ceremony. You can not only get some advice but also ask for some tips at the same time.\nPEAK VERSUS OFF PEAK\nPeak season tends to be in Autumn and Spring, a time when the temperature is delightful, we experience long daylight hours and the colours of the landscape are at their finest. For these reasons, peak periods often attract a higher price with demand increasing around these times. The most popular months to tie the knot are March (autumn) and November (spring) with Saturday by far the most popular day to get married followed by Sunday.\nThe Australian Bureau of Statistics reports the least popular months for a wedding are June and July. These months are considered low season and therefore you may be to secure a special for that time of year. You could also consider booking your wedding mid-week which will be less expensive and let\u2019s face it, who wouldn\u2019t take a day off to celebrate with you?\nCredit: McCrindle Research PTY LTD\nTying the knot on a public holiday may be tempting however there are some considerations that really need some thought. It may be convenient for interstate guests, it\u2019s also an expensive time to travel, flights and accommodation alone would be in the hundreds for your travellers.\nIt\u2019s also highly likely that there will be a surcharge on almost everything which can impact the budget by 10% \u2013 20% to cover holiday loadings. When you are talking about a $10,000 or $15,000 reception that can add up to an unbelievable champagne tower of the Billecart-Salmon variety.\nWho doesn\u2019t like to travel? Public holidays are a time when friends travel and often overseas holidays are booked in at these times of the year to maximise the amount of time away. Whilst it\u2019s likely they would change their plans, they may not be keen to do so if they have been planning an adventure for some time.\nA quite note on the season front, think about your wedding photography and what you envisage in the background. What flowers did you want at your wedding and will be in season? Offseason flowers can be acquired but at great expense. Will your style or theme really match the time of year? Does it typically rain a lot during your preferred month and will you need a marquee as a back up plan?",

        "title": "The Paradox of Liberation by Michael Walzer - Ethics & International Affairs : Ethics & International Affairs",
        "raw_content": "The Paradox of Liberation by Michael Walzer\nGeorge Rupp | September 2015\nThe Paradox of Liberation: Secular Revolutions and Religious Counterrevolutions, Michael Walzer (New Haven: Yale University Press, 2015), 192 pp., $26 cloth.\nIn his newest book, Michael Walzer addresses a modern paradox: national liberation movements based on the ideas of secular liberalism were triumphant in the post\u2013World War II period; yet, once established, the new secular states have been challenged with increasing effectiveness by religious revivalists.\nWalzer examines in detail three examples of the creation of independent states: India and Israel in 1947\u20131948 and Algeria in 1962. In three of his four chapters he interweaves the case studies in mutually illuminating comparisons and contrasts, and in another he focuses in greater detail on Israel and what he characterizes as the opposition between Zionism and Judaism. These four chapters were in their initial form the 2013 Henry L. Stimson Lectures at Yale University. Because almost half the questions from faculty and students were not about India, Israel, or Algeria, but rather about the United States, Walzer added a postscript to the book in order to discuss how the American story is like and unlike the other cases.\nThe book is masterly in its presentation of nuanced accounts that draw on historical documents and recent theoretical arguments to counter a remarkably resilient array of stereotypes about religion and secularism. In some respects his title\u2014or at least the subtitle\u2014does not do justice to the subtlety of his argument. While he does indeed portray secular revolutions and religious counterrevolutions, his contention is that the two are interconnected in extraordinarily complex ways and certainly do not constitute a straightforward sequence.\nWalzer offers multiple accounts of the views of secular advocates for national liberation. For example, he discusses and quotes Jawaharlal Nehru, Theodor Herzl, David Ben-Gurion, and Ahmed Ben Bella in their staunch advocacy for a secular state as the guarantor of liberation. He also devotes most of a chapter to Marxist arguments for a universalism that must allow states to rule over more provincial loyalties so as to contain the pathologies of religious zealotry and to counter the false consciousness that religious beliefs produce.\nWalzer is explicit about his personal sympathy with efforts to create a strong and coherent secular culture, and he is impatient with those who refuse to acknowledge the accomplishments of secular liberalism. Again and again, he turns to the question of the status of women to underscore those gains and to demonstrate the vulnerability of such achievements to attacks from both traditional and revivalist religions. Despite his sympathy for the secular project of liberation, however, he states flatly that this effort has failed in all three of the cases he examines. In view of that outcome, he rejects the position that liberation is the exclusive preserve of secularists and calls for collaboration across the religioussecular divide.\nA key message of the book is that secular advocates need to engage with traditional communities. In seeking to learn a lesson from the \u201cusefully wrong\u201d Marxist critique, Walzer returns repeatedly to a distinction between \u201cnegation\u201d and \u201cnegotiation.\u201d Negation is the unqualified rejection of traditionalist worldviews. In contrast, negotiation entails critical engagement with particular communities, including those devoted to religious beliefs and practices. In developing this distinction, Walzer draws on the writings of Clifford Geertz, Ashis Nandy, Akeel Bilgrami, Uma Narayan, Martha Nussbaum, and Amartya Sen\u2014certainly an extraordinarily distinguished set of theorists who have focused in particular on cultural developments in India and other postcolonial societies.\nIn formulating his argument about the need to reach out to traditional communities, Walzer repeatedly invokes the imperative for repetition or reiteration\u2014that is, a recognition that change unavoidably requires a process of incremental adjustments rather than a single definitive transformation. The mistake of too many national liberationists is to deem their intervention as dispositive. In each of the cases he examines, there is instead a process that may move forward more effectively over the long term when it includes active engagement between liberation movements and traditional values.\nFor example, according to Walzer, Nehru would have been better served if he had tried to incorporate Gandhi and his adherents into his secularizing program. As Walzer notes, \u201ceven when Gandhi openly opposed Hindu beliefs and practices, he spoke to the people in a religious language that was largely foreign to other leaders of the national liberation movement\u201d (p. 20). In contrast, Walzer describes Nehru as \u201cmostly tone deaf\u201d to the \u201creligious traditions that played such a large part in shaping Indian civilization\u201d (p. 122).\nIn the case of Herzl and Ben-Gurion, liberation required overcoming \u201cthe mentality of exile\u201d and the \u201clegacy of statelessness,\u201d and therefore \u201cits most prominent and successful advocates were likely to be Jews who had assimilated into the world of their oppressors and who viewed their own people with a foreign eye.\u201d To note one remarkable anecdote that Walzer cites, Herzl was eager to accept the British offer of land in Uganda for a new state. Because he had few ties to Jewish religious traditions, he apparently had little sense of the opposition that accepting this offer would arouse.\nIn the Algerian case, Walzer traces the evolution from an explicit invocation of Islamic principles to an almost secular socialism. There was in the initial manifesto of 1945 a call for an \u201cAlgerian state, sovereign, democratic, and social, within the framework of the principles of Islam.\u201d By 1956 the goal became \u201cthe birth of an Algerian state in the form of a democratic and social republic\u2014and not the restoration of monarchy or of a theocracy\u201d (p. 10). A year later, the stated aim of establishing a democratic and social republic included the clause \u201cwhich is not in contradiction with the principles of Islam\u201d (p. 10). Walzer quotes the early nationalist leader Ben Bella, who studied Lenin and Sartre and Malraux while in prison and who, in the aftermath of independence, spoke of \u201cIslamic socialism\u201d\u2014which, as his Muslim critics quickly claimed, was more socialist than Islamic.\nWalzer is fully aware of the cross-claims in regard to any invocation of connections between national liberation movements and religious traditions. To let the Indian case stand for all three, Gandhi was\u2014 and still is\u2014subject to criticism for in effect strengthening Hindu traditions that continue to be a source of dissention and even violence in the country that he helped to liberate. But Walzer, not (it sometimes seems) without reluctance and ambivalence, concludes that a reiterative process that allows and even encourages critical engagement with religious traditions may often serve national liberation better in the long run than does a secularism that is out of touch with local communities. Negotiation is preferable to negation. Or to quote the final sentence of the book: \u201cLiberation is an ongoing project.\u201d\nThe author is a Senior Fellow at the Carnegie Council for Ethics in International Affairs and President Emeritus of the International Rescue Committee and Columbia University.\n\u00ab Rough Justice by David Bosco\nRescuing Democracy in the Age of the Internet \u00bb",

        "raw_content": "Australia win back respect in Dubai dust\nMELBOURNE, Oct 12 (Reuters) - Leading a scandal-hit team dismissed as Australia's worst in 30 years, captain Tim Paine's pledge to win back hearts and minds seemed a fanciful, if noble, aspiration in the leadup to the test series against Pakistan.\nIn the end, it took only five days of cricket before he could claim mission accomplished, having ushered his team to safety in Dubai in one of the bravest fourth innings escapes in the history of the game.\nAnchored by a career-defining 141 by Usman Khawaja and Paine's unbeaten 61 on a pock-marked pitch, Australia survived 139.5 overs in enervating heat to ensure the series remains alive to the second match in Abu Dhabi.\nFor all the brilliant teams Australia has produced, none have prevailed for so long in a fourth innings on Asian pitches.\nOnly two visiting teams to Asia have ever scored higher in a fourth innings chase than the 362-8 scratched out with astonishing grit and defiance by Paine's men.\nIt followed a calamitous batting collapse of 10-60 in the first innings, which had appeared a terminal setback in the context of the match.\nAll that, and without the country's two best batsmen in former captain Steve Smith and David Warner, who remain suspended for their parts in the Cape Town ball-tampering scandal.\nIn their absence, Khawaja emerged as the team's safest hands in the rejigged order, having compiled the highest ever fourth innings score in the continent by a non-Asian batsman.\nAt 524 minutes, it was also the second longest knock in a fourth innings, behind only Michael Atherton's 643-minute epic in an unbeaten 185 against South Africa in 1995.\nTwinned with his team-high first innings 85, it was a stunning riposte for the critics who have long criticised his record on Asian pitches.\n\"People think because of my relaxed nature that's not the case, that I've been gifted to be able to get to where I am, but it's not the case at all,\" the 31-year-old told reporters.\n\"I've worked my absolute backside off for the last 10 years and really worked as hard as I can in different conditions like this and in England and other places.\n\"People overlook that sort of stuff and you don't get to play at the highest level without putting in the hard yards. There's no secret to success, it's all about hard work.\"\nIt was also a personal triumph for Paine, left to pick up the pieces of a team brought to its knees by the scandal in South Africa.\nWhile Paine's leadership was confirmed during the selection of Australia's vice-captains two weeks ago, it was also strangely undermined, with the decision taken out of his hands and entrusted to a panel of elders, selectors and administrators.\nSince replacing the ousted Smith, he has been unfairly cast as a stand-in and a caretaker who will duly step aside once his predecessor's penance is served.\nBut after steering Australia to safety with an assured captain's knock, Paine heads to Abu Dhabi with his authority strengthened and having given estranged fans at home a reason to re-engage.\n\"We know that to become a good team, we first have to be hard to beat,\" Paine said.\n\"We're just really proud of our whole group, the way they went about it, the way they applied themselves today.\" (Editing by Sudipto Ganguly)",

        "raw_content": "Former President Bush Is Laid to Rest in Houston, Watch the Funeral Live Here\nOn Thursday, former President George H.W. Bush's funeral service will take place. This is the last part of the four-day memorial service for the 41st president. His friends and family are gathering in Houston, Texas, to celebrate his life and lay him to rest.\nAlmost 8 months after he lost his beloved wife, Former President George H.W. Bush passed away on November 30th. The great man left this world at the age of 94 after being hospitalized multiple times in 2018.\nBush was asked if he wanted to go to the hospital, but he said no\u2014he was ready to be with his wife and daughter Robin, who died of leukemia as a child. He passed away at his home in Houston surrounded by his family, including son Neil Bush and his wife Maria, grandson Pierce Bush, and former Secretary of State James Baker.\nAfter his passing, the New York times learned his heartwarming last words. Hours before his death, he spoke to his son former president George W. Bush on speakerphone.\nhttps://twitter.com/Bush41/status/1069304786024099840\nDuring the conversation, the younger Bush told his H.W. that he had been a \"wonderful father.\"\nThe former president replied: \"I love you, too.\" Those were his final words before he passed.\nGeorge Herbert Walker Bush was born on June 12, 1924, in Milton, Massachusetts. His father, Prescott Bush, was also in politics. In addition to being an investment banker, Prescott Bush was the United State Senator for Connecticut from 1952 to 1963.\nBefore he got involved in politics, he became a war hero. He flew 58 combat missions in World War II, and he was awarded three Air Medals and the Distinguished Flying Cross. After the war, he completed a degree from Yale University.\nhttps://twitter.com/nytpolitics/status/1068734160288825344\nHe married the love of his life, Barbara Pierce, while still in the Navy. They were wed on January 6, 1945. They have six children: George Walker (b. 1946), Pauline Robinson \"Robin\" (1949\u20131953), John Ellis \"Jeb\" (b. 1953), Neil Mallon (b. 1955), Marvin Pierce (b. 1956), and Dorothy Walker \"Doro\" (b. 1959). When Barbara passed away on April 17, 2018, she and Bush and been married 73 years, which makes theirs the longest presidential marriage in history.\nHe successfully entered politics in 1967 when he was elected as the US Representative from Texas' 7th District. After that, he served as the Ambassador to the United Nations, Chairman of the Republican National Committee, and Director of the CIA.\nIn 1980, he ran for president, but he lost the Republican nomination to Ronald Reagan. Instead, he served as Vice President for Reagan's two terms.\nhttps://twitter.com/Southern_Living/status/1069422240926703621\nIn 1988, he was elected 41st president of the United States with 53.1% of the popular vote and 426 electoral votes. He is the first sitting Vice President since Martin van Buren in 1836 to be elected to the presidency.\nHe lost the 1994 presidential election to Democrat Bill Clinton. However, he remained active in politics and influenced the future of America as the father of George W. Bush. He is only the second man to be both the president of the United States and father to a president. The other was John Adams, the second president of the United States.\nBush has had a variety of health problems in recent years. He also had vascular parkinsonism, which is a rare syndrome that mimics Parkinson's disease.\nhttps://twitter.com/collinabc13/status/1069425595992305664\nBush laid in state at the US Capitol before a memorial service at the National Cathedral in Washington. This is the second memorial service at St. Martin's Episcopal Church in Houston. He will be laid to rest at the George H.W. Bush Presidential Library in College Station, Texas, alongside his wife and Robin.\nPlease join us in praying for the Bush family as they deal with their loss.

        "raw_content": "NCC economist: Better prices may be in offing\nAdams made his inaugural presentation as the National Cotton Council\u2019s new vice president for economics and policy analysis at an American Cotton Producers/Cotton Foundation meeting in Atlanta.\nThere were some light comments about the dour economic analyses of \u201cDr. Doom,\u201d Mark Lange, Adams predecessor, who is now the Council\u2019s vice president for policy analysis and program coordination and will become its president and CEO in February.\n\u201cI come in starting near the bottom,\u201d said Adams, formerly director of crop program analysis for the Food and Agricultural Policy Research Institute (FAPRI) at the University of Missouri. \u201cYou rode prices down with Mark, and, hopefully, they will start back up with me.\u201d\nAdams said the outlook he was presenting at the Atlanta meeting was still \u201ca little on the pessimistic side\u201d because of the ongoing problems with net farm income in the U.S. agricultural sector.\nUSDA\u2019s most recent estimates put 2002 net farm income at $40.5 billion, down from $47.9 billion in 2001. Without significant recovery in farm incomes, government payments for the current calendar year are projected to reach $21.7 billion, roughly the same level as the last two years.\n\u201cA primary factor contributing to the lower farm income is the decline in livestock and dairy receipts,\u201d said Adams. \u201cIn 2001, livestock receipts reached a record $106.4 billion. For 2002, receipts are expected to fall to $99.4 billion. Crop market receipts for 2002 are expected to be virtually unchanged from last year\u2019s level.\u201d\nHe noted that cotton futures prices have strengthened in recent weeks, primarily due to changes in market fundamentals.\n\u201cCurrently, the world cotton crop is projected at 90 million bales, down 8 million bales from 2001,\u201d said Adams. \u201cConsumption is put at 96.2 million bales. If realized, the combination of the two would bring a significant decline in world stocks.\u201d\nForeign cotton consumption usually exceeds foreign production by 4 million to 8 million bales, he notes, but, in 2002, USDA projections indicate the gap between foreign consumption and production could be closer to 11 million bales. \u201cLonger term, this deficit will be key if the United States is to maintain 10 million to 11 million bales of exports.\u201d\nA smaller world crop and growth in mill use would lead to a decline in global stocks for the 2002/2003 marketing year, which began Aug. 1, said Adams. \u201cIf current estimates are realized, it would put stocks at levels reminiscent of the early to mid-1990s, suggesting an opportunity to see improved prices for the coming year.\u201d\nU.S. 2002 cotton production is also expected to be down given the projected decline in planted acres from 15.8 million in 2001 to 14.4 million in 2002. USDA\u2019s latest estimate puts the U.S. crop at 17.5 million bales, down nearly 3 million bales from 2001.\n\u201cSince the release of that July number, it is believed that the cotton crop has only improved,\u201d says Adams. \u201cWhile there is still a lot of time between now and harvest, current expectations lean toward an 18-million-bale crop.\u201d\nThe marketing year that ended July 31 saw exports levels not seen since the 1920s and a further contraction in domestic mill use. Mill use fell below 8 million bales while exports are expected to approach 11 million bales, a scenario that is unlikely to change much in 2002/2003.\nWith off-take again expected to exceed production in 2002/2003, analysts are projecting that U.S. ending stocks could decline from 2001/2002\u2019s 7.7 million bales to 6.6 million bales, still a burdensome amount of stocks, according to most experts.\nChina will again play a key role in the world market outlook. In its July Supply/Demand Report, USDA increased its consumption estimate for Chinese cotton to 25 million bales in July, up almost 1 million bales from its July estimate in 2001.\n\u201cThe report also surprised the trade by revising historical consumption and stock estimates for China,\u201d Adams noted. \u201cWith the exception of 2001/02, consumption was revised lower beginning with 1993/94. Although the changes are small, the \u2018newly unused\u2019 cotton was added to ending stocks.\n\u201cThe cumulative effect on stocks was to add 3.5 million bales by then end of the 2001/02 year. Now, beginning stocks for the 2002/03 marketing year are expected to reach 14 million bales. Current estimates put China\u2019s net trade position for the coming marketing year at net importing just over 1 million bales.\u201d\nAdams said the market watchers are also keeping a close eye on the crop in India. \u201cThere are concerns over the development of the crop in the northern regions and delays in planting in the southern regions. USDA currently puts the crop at 11.5 million bales. It will bear watching but it is still too early to assume any significant crop loss.\u201d\nThe declines projected in the world cotton stocks have helped December New York cotton futures to approach 50 cents per pound.\n\u201cCurrent markets would put the U.S. season-average farm price at 40 to 44 cents per pound,\u201d he said. \u201cGiven normal relationships with the Cotton Outlook A-Index and Adjusted World Price, marketing loan gains would still range between 12 and 16 cents per pound.\n\u201cUnder most scenarios, the prevailing farm price is likely to remain below the loan rate. If so, the counter-cyclical payment authorized in the new farm bill will be at the maximum level of 13.73 cents per pound.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Healthcare spending will make up 20% of U.S. economy within a decade\nHealthcare spending will comprise 20 percent of the U.S. economy by the middle of next decade, according to new data from the Office of the Actuary of the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services and published in Health Affairs.\nExpenditures on healthcare services will grow at an average rate of 5.8 percent per year between 2015 and 2025, about 1.3 percent higher than projected annual growth in the U.S. gross domestic product, CMS concluded. By 2025, healthcare spending will comprise 20.1 percent of the U.S. economy, up from 17.5 percent in 2014. Expenditures totaled $3.2 trillion last year.\nDespite the seemingly robust spending growth, it remains lower than the 8 percent annual growth clip that occurred in the two decades before the Great Recession of 2008, which helped to slow expenditures significantly. In 2015, spending grew at a 5.5 percent rate. This year, it is projected to be 4.8 percent, attributable in part to the slower expansion of newly insured under the Affordable Care Act.\n\"The Affordable Care Act continues to help keep overall health spending growth at a modest level and at a lower growth rate than the previous two decades. This progress is occurring while also helping more Americans get coverage, often for the first time,\" said CMS Acting Administrator Andy Slavitt in a statement.\nIn addition, he said that per-capita spending and medical inflation also remain at historically very modest levels, which demonstrates the importance of continuing to reform healthcare delivery systems. \"As we look to the future we must continue our efforts that keep people healthy, providing access to affordable, quality care, while spending smarter across all categories of care delivery,\" Slavitt said.\nMedical price inflation was only 0.8 percent last year, down from 1.4 percent in 2014, with hospital price inflation up just 0.9 percent. Prices for physician services actually dropped 1.1 percent last year.\nMuch of the projected price growth in the coming years will be driven by expansion of the Medicaid program, private health insurance and expenditures on pharmaceuticals.\nA recent report concluded that the spending growth connected to the Affordable Care Act could lead to expenditures $2.6 trillion lower than originally projected over the next several years.\nDespite the relatively moderate healthcare spending curve, there are some economists who fear the growth may damage the U.S. economy over the long term.\n- read the Health Affairs article\n- check out the CMS statement\nHealthcare Costs Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS)",

        "raw_content": "Home Business Taking Advantage Of The Ease Of Business Set Up Dubai\nTaking Advantage Of The Ease Of Business Set Up Dubai\nNumerous investors have been enticed to set up a business in Dubai because of the numerous advantages. The city boasts of a free enterprise system along with world-class infrastructure and facilities. Also, many investors find the United Arab Emirates as an ideal business location because of cheap energy supply, accessible sea and airports, competitively priced import duties and freight charges. Business set up Dubai also has additional perks like the lack of personal income, capital and corporate taxation along with full repatriation of capital and profits.\nLike most of its neighbours, Dubai built its wealth through the oil industry. Through the vision of its leaders, it has transformed itself as one of the top business and cultural hubs in the Middle Eastern region, drawing in both tourists and investors.\nJust like setting up a business in your home country, ample research and preparation must be done in order to sustain your venture and maximise your profits.\nOne of the first things you should know is that outside of the free zones, foreigners are not allowed to be majority shareholders of a business. A foreign investor is only allowed a maximum of 49% share in the business with the majority going to a local. In this regard, you will have to find a local partner, an individual or business, which will assist you in obtaining the necessary paper work required for starting your business.\nIn order to protect your interests as well as to give you local legal advice, you should hire the services of a lawyer. This is particularly helpful knowing that you have a partner that has majority control over the business, albeit without contributing capital.\nYour next step in business set up in Dubai is to find the ideal business model; determine whether you should set it up as a general partnership, a limited liability company or as joint venture. Your choice of legal structure for your business may be influenced by the fact that the Department of Economic Development has different capital requirements for each model.\nAfterwards, you will need to lease a space for your office. Note that the DED does not allow \"virtual offices\" and requires businesses to have an actual physical office.\nYour business' successful entry into Dubai is hinged on finding a reliable and trustworthy partner. An effective partner can help you breeze past barriers while providing you solutions to company formation and introducing you to vital contacts.\nAbout the author: Sarah Miller is one of the excellent business consultants who have been exposed to a lot of different businesses.

        "raw_content": "Modi US visit: PM Narendra Modi\u2019s digital initiatives to charm Silicon Valley\nBy: The Financial Express | Updated: September 25, 2015 9:15 PM\nModi US visit: It's not surprising that Narendra Modi is the first Indian prime minister in more than three decades to visit Silicon Valley...\nModi US visit: Narendra Modi shakes hands with James Murdoch (media mogul Rupert Murdoch seen behind PM) before a round table meeting on \u2018Media, technology and communication \u2013 Growth story for India\u2019 in New York on Thursday. (PTI)\nIt is not surprising that Narendra Modi is the first Indian prime minister in more than three decades to visit Silicon Valley since few of his predecessors were either interested in using technology in the way he is, or had much to offer by way of either expertise or business opportunities. Even before Modi became prime minister, Indian IT firms had established their presence on the international scene, at least at the low end of the market \u2013 and firms like GE and Microsoft already had R&D centres doing reasonable quality work here. As Nasscom\u2019s recent study points out, while the Indian tech industry has invested $2 billion in the US between FY11 and FY13 \u2013 and $8.2 billion in operational expenditure in FY13 alone \u2013 it created 4.1 lakh jobs in the US in FY15, of which 3 lakh were for US nationals and green card holders; between FY11 and FY15, a total of $20 billion have been paid by way of taxes to the US government and another $6.6 billion by way of social security contributions. Over a period of time, the quality of Indian tech has improved vastly, which is why US money is finding its way into Indian startups \u2013 you have to visit Bengaluru only once to see how tech is progressing, there is even an Indian team participating in Google\u2019s Moon 2.0 programme; indeed, Modi will be speaking at an event in San Jose which showcases the innovation of Indian startups.\nNandan Nilekani\u2019s Aadhaar card took this a step forward and firmly established the Indian government\u2019s credentials as a low-cost innovator with huge potential for scaling up \u2013 once the biometrics-driven Direct Benefits Transfer (DBT) programme takes off, it will be the only one of its type in the world with such scale. While adopting Nilekani\u2019s Aadhaar, Modi has added a few more layers on top of this. His ambitious 100,000 MW by 2022 solar power target presents a big challenge as well as a big opportunity for US tech firms including Tesla, whose campus he will be visiting. Digital India is another huge opportunity, in terms of both money and technology. Google\u2019s Project Loon, for instance, can play a role in this, and spreading the Internet is also what Facebook\u2019s internet.org is all about. Billions of dollars of equipment will be required when India is fully connected through Digital India, and a large part of it will come from US firms. To achieve its full potential, Digital India will need more satellite technology \u2013 US firm Hughes Communications has been trying for half a decade to make a breakthrough here \u2013 and it will also mean India will need to spread its telecom network wider, and fix all remaining issues of spectrum etc. Digital locker means government departments will have to truly modernize to be able to give you digital land records, education degrees etc. and Digital India will allow governments \u2013 and citizens \u2013 to keep tabs on all citizen services across the country, 24/7. In other words, apart from the commercial and philanthropic opportunities this offers techies \u2013 both are equally important \u2013 Digital India is the essential techie dream of being able to solve the world\u2019s problems using tech, bypassing the messy interface that human beings represent. There\u2019s only one fly in the ointment in this perfect picture \u2013 Silicon Valley tends to be more liberal than the Modi government comes across as being; Modi\u2019s Beti Bachao Aandolan goes down well with Silicon Valley but Union minister and Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Mahesh Sharma\u2019s \u2018DespiteBeingAMuslim\u2019 represents every bit of bigotry the Valley abhors. It helps, of course, that Modi\u2019s government has been on the politically correct side of the \u2018Net Neutrality\u2019 debate and quickly withdrew the encryption policy draft that was seen as an instrument of an intrusive state. Though US tech titans posed for pictures with President Xi Jingping just a few days ago, chances are their smiles will be warmer when doing the same with Narendra Modi.\nBharatiya Janata PartyNarendra ModiSilicon Valley",

        "raw_content": "Navigate Fractional Property Investment\nWhat is fractional property investment?\nThe benefits of fractional property investment\nCrowdfunding real estate investment\nRBA cash rate trends\nInvestor loan restrictions\nHow to become a property investor with less than $100 through fractional property investment\nFractional property investment offers an alternative to the huge up-front costs of traditional property investment.\nProperty is an attractive asset class for investors. It has performed well historically, offers a tangible asset and the returns have the potential to be substantial. But as house prices continue to rise, the ability to invest in property moves further out of the reach of average Australians. Fractional investment platforms could offer a solution for those looking to get a foot on the property ladder without the massive initial investment.\nWith fractional property investment, the cost of a property is divided into shares. These shares are then sold to investors. Investors receive income from rent charged on the property and can also get capital returns on the property when it is sold or they sell their shares. The cost of the shares will rise or fall proportionate to the change in the value of the property.\nFractional property investment may sound similar to some other forms of pooled property investments, such as a real estate investment trust (REIT) or a property syndicate, but fractional investment differs in a few key ways.\nFirst, unlike an REIT, fractional investment allows an investor to hand-pick the property they\u2019d like to invest in. This allows an investor to build a portfolio of individual properties, rather than buying into a group of pre-selected properties.\nSecond, unlike a property syndicate, fractional property investment offers liquidity. This means investors can cash out their investment at any time by selling their shares. Whereas property syndicates only see capital gains on the sale of their property, fractional property investors can sell their shares any time they want to access their capital gains.\nWhat are the benefits of fractional property investment?\nFractional investment has a number of advantages over traditional property investment. One major advantage is that the barriers to entry are much lower. By splitting the cost of a property into shares, investors can gain exposure to residential property for a small initial outlay.\nAlso, fractional property investment is a liquid investment. This means the investor\u2019s funds aren\u2019t tied up for a specific amount of time. Fractional property investors can sell their shares whenever they want and receive a return proportionate to the increase in value of the property.\nFinally, fractional property investment allows investors to diversify their funds across a wide portfolio of properties. While it might be challenging, or even downright impossible, for the average person to buy a large portfolio of residential properties, fractional investment allows investors to buy shares across a wide range of properties for a relatively small initial investment.\nWhat are the drawbacks of fractional property investment?\nThe primary drawback of fractional property investment is that the eventual returns are not as significant as the returns in traditional property investment since the initial investment in fractional property investments is so much smaller.\nAnother potential drawback is that investors own shares of property rather than a tangible asset. A traditional property investor has the option to become an owner-occupier in their property should the need arise. This option isn\u2019t available for fractional investors.\nFractional property investment is a relatively new concept in Australia, and as such there are a limited number of platforms available. The two main fractional investment platforms in Australia are BRICKX and DomaCom.\nBRICKX uses a buyer\u2019s agent and property market experts to find properties with positive rental returns and the potential for strong capital growth. It then purchases these properties and divides the cost into 10,000 shares, or \u201cBricks\u201d. Investors can buy and sell Bricks on the platform and receive monthly rent payments proportional to the size of their investment.\nDomaCom pools investor funds to purchase properties. The platform allows users to commit funds along with other like-minded investors toward a property for sale. Once enough investors have committed, the property is purchased and operates as a Managed Investment Scheme (MIS). DomaCom also offers a platform that allows investors to sell their shares to other investors.\nProperty seems more affordable with BRICKX\nInnovative property investment platform BRICKX allows you to buy shares of Australian residential investment properties for less than $100.\nWhat is BrickX and how does it work?\nBrickX offers an innovative way to invest in property without massive start-up costs.\nWhat you absolutely need to know about property investment\nFree guides and interviews with the experts to help you successfully invest in Australian and overseas property, from suburb research to finance.\nDomaCom Review\nDomaCom is a fractional investment platform where you can invest in different properties without the need to get a large home loan or save a large deposit.\nMayApril 22, 2018Staff\nIf you want to go for a fractional property investment, you may like to start with an investment platform. At this time of writing, you can compare BRICKX and DomaCom investment platforms. You can get some general information from BRICKX here while DomaCom\u2019s review can be found on this page. I would encourage you to visit the main websites of the two platforms to get more details, then decide which of the two may be suitable for you to start the investment with.",

        "raw_content": "How Maria Mercedes Grubb is Bringing #knivesandlipstick to the San Juan Food Scene\nThe Puerto Rican native is trying to bring a little New York City to the cuisine of San Juan.\nChef Maria Mercedes Grubb misses New York City. After spending her formative years as a cook working crazy hours in Manhattan\u2014she studied at the International Culinary Institute before working at restaurants including Pastis, The Modern, Maialino, and Bar Basque\u2014the Puerto Rico-born chef decided to return home to San Juan be closer to her family. And while she enjoys the pace of the island, she\u2019s still missing the near-24-hour access to specialty ingredients she enjoyed in New York City. \u201cHere in Puerto Rico, the menu is very limited,\u201d she said. \u201cEverybody just does rice and beans.\u201d To compensate, Mercedes Grubb started her own supper club, Underground Dining Club, where she finds available spaces in which to cook different international meals. She also tries to bring as many New York flavors as possible to Gallo Negro, the San Juan restaurant at which she\u2019s the executive chef. Food & Wine asked Mercedes Grubb about the evolution of her career, what inspires her in San Juan and why she puts the hashtag #knivesandlipstick on all of her Instagram posts.\nHow did you get your start as a chef?\nProfessionally, I started cooking in New York about ten years ago. My first kitchen was Pastis. I studied at the French Culinary Institute (now called the International Culinary Center). While I was going to school, I was working at Pastis\u2014I was the only girl there, so that was very interesting. The kitchen crew was made of badass, hard-working men. They were perfect gentlemen\u2014with the occasional \"how you doing?\" pickup line. They always wanted to help me, whether carrying stuff or with prep. I always refused. I wanted to prove to myself that I could carry that 50-pound box of butter from the basement as well as they could. I also wanted to learn.\nWhat\u2019s the story behind Underground Dining Club?\nI started UDC in November 2011. When I came to Puerto Rico, I didn\u2019t feel like I was fitting in. I also missed a lot of food from New York, the things that you can just walk around the corner and eat. But here in Puerto Rico, the menu is very limited. Everybody just does rice and beans\u2014maybe some people do upscale rice and beans. The Asian food is not that great, and it\u2019s hard to find international flavors like Malaysian or Moroccan.\nWhen I left New York, the whole supper club trend was starting to blow up. I really loved the idea of just popping up for one day so that people could enjoy some beautiful food\u2014no fuss, no muss. You come in, clean up and that\u2019s it. I host it at my home, or at my restaurant, or at art galleries.\nMy home base is Gallo Negro and I\u2019m using the same style there that I use at UDC. I have a .99-cent menu that is like dim sum. It\u2019s one bite, and I have six items that I rotate on a bar-only menu. Now it\u2019s really picking up, which maybe has to do with the economy, which is currently in a debt crisis. That\u2019s really hot right now.\nYou\u2019ve been back in Puerto Rico for a few years now: Have you noticed that the scene has shifted?\nThe way I look at it now, I can\u2019t sit here and complain and do nothing about it. I can\u2019t just stomp my feet and say, \u201cI miss pho.\u201d If I want pho, I\u2019m going to make it and serve it. And people get excited. They\u2019re like, \"Oh my God, I love pho. Thank you so much.\" I see that reaction. A lot of people go to study in the States, and when they return they find a lot of the cuisine that they experienced there at my restaurant, and they\u2019re as excited about it as I am.\nI pretty much march to the beat of my own drum. A lot of people are talking about how we should cook with only local ingredients, change the menu daily\u2014and I\u2019m all about that. But unfortunately, my resources are limited. Very few chefs are able to get ahold of the fresh fish here, and the few farmers we have are growing things exclusively for specific chefs\u2014so I don\u2019t have dibs on as much as I would like to when it comes to ingredients. Over 80 percent of food is imported in Puerto Rico. More of it could definitely be produced, but there's a lack of laborers. Same goes with fishing. Most of the fresh fish stays on the coast; when it comes to San Juan, we get some fish, just not as consistently for some restaurants to keep up with the demand.\nBut at the same time, I don\u2019t pay attention to what other people are doing. I\u2019m very selfish; I cook what I like. If I\u2019m missing Korean fried chicken, I\u2019m gonna find a way to get gochujang and I\u2019m going to make it. That\u2019s my style. It\u2019s very personal cooking; it\u2019s not a trend.\nHow did your hashtag, #knivesandlipstick, come about?\nMy best friend, with whom I worked at Maialino, has her own supper club in New York called The Brooklyn Belly. Whenever I go back, I try to cook with her. One day, she handed me red lipstick. I never in my life wore lipstick, but I look young, and being a woman working in kitchens, I was always asked how old I am. I thought, You know what? It works. Now people will stop asking me how old I am. Since then, I\u2019ve been rocking the lipstick and it kind of stuck. I\u2019m all about the knives and lipstick.\nWhat is inspiring to you in San Juan?\nI\u2019m very picky. I guess I was spoiled by New York in this sense. But lately, I\u2019ve noticed a little bit of a shift in food here. There\u2019s this place called La Jaquita Baya\u2014I\u2019m really in love with the food. He rocks the whole upscale, local flavors thing beautifully. There\u2019s also Compostela\u2014the chef is an old-school, badass guy with the most on-point technique.\nRelated: Naomi Starkman's Mission to Bring Food Policy News to the Masses\nMeet Sandrine Logette-Jardin, Champagne's Only Woman Chef de Cave",

        "title": "Microsoft And Walmart Are Doing It: What If You Have To Downsize?",
        "raw_content": "Microsoft And Walmart Are Doing It: What If You Have To Downsize?\n(Note: This is a guest post by Han Jian, an associate professor of management and co-director of the Center on China Innovation at China Europe International Business School, or CEIBS)\nIt may seem counterintuitive, but downsizing is an inevitable result of a rebounding global economy. From late 2017 to early this year, multinationals such as GE, Siemens, Microsoft, Oracle, Bank of America, Cisco, and Walmart have been slashing jobs, even as some of these firms show improved performance or roll out expansion plans.\nChanges in the macro environment force companies to seek out new ways of reinventing themselves, such as change strategy, restructuring, or entirely doing away with some aspects of their operations, which often lead to structural downsizing.\nAmong all management decisions, structural downsizing has the biggest impact on employees, because it breaks the psychological contract \u2013 defined by organizational researcher Denise Rousseau as an unwritten set of mutual beliefs, perceptions, and informal obligations between employer and employee.\nDownsizing, or the sudden severing of this psychological contract, negatively affects employees\u2019 views of mid- and long-term career development; in extreme cases, it even smashes their sense of self-worth and alters their outlook on life. Research shows that when large-scale downsizing occurs, there is a corresponding rise in the rate of domestic violence and crime in related communities. Suicide is not rare during downsizing, especially among middle-aged employees. Last December\u2019s suicide, by a 42-year-old man who was in charge of R&D at one of China\u2019s well-known telecommunications providers, for example, led to a lot of discussion about downsizing management, career development and midlife crisis.\nMany company leaders are not adept at effectively managing downsizing, regarding it as no more than an administrative process. Front-line managers and even HR professionals tend to underestimate the profound impact of a shattered psychological contract. Though it was written years ago by staff laid off by Lenovo, an article headlined \u201cThe company is not my home,\u201d is still mentioned and reposted on social media when fresh job cuts hit the news. The piece took Lenovo to task for what its writers perceived as the company\u2019s failure to do enough to cushion the blow, except for carrying out termination procedures according to employment contracts.\nIf downsizing is inevitable, how can we minimize the negative impact? The key is to maintain the foundation of the psychological contract: trust. Trust is most fragile during organizational change, in general, and downsizing in particular. Moreover, uncertainty breeds stress, conjecture and rumor. Late last year the world\u2019s largest copper mine, in Chile, was shut down after unionized workers went on strike to protest layoffs. Management said the downsizing was part of a wider effort to adjust the plant\u2019s work flow; but employees saw it as a way to get back at them for a 43-day strike organised earlier in the year. The lack of trust on both sides clearly had a major impact in this case. Open communication is essential to rebuilding trust, and timing is crucial.\nOnce there is a consensus that downsizing is inevitable, the company should announce the scope and schedule of job cuts as soon as possible so employees can access clear and consistent signals through a variety of communication channels, preventing possible misunderstandings and the spread of rumors. An organization must also have a clearly defined plan as well as gradual and unwavering progress with implementation. Ambiguity, chopping and changing, executives\u2019 silence, sloppiness and even beguilement can only bring about more stress and more harm to employees. If downsizing is inevitable, the company should at least let workers feel that they are being dealt with fairly, and that management is trustworthy.\nIt\u2019s also worth remembering that downsizing has an equally deep impact on employees who remain, because their psychological contract with employers changes when they see their peers leave. Employees\u2019 negative expectations and worry about downsizing are more lethal than downsizing itself. This kind of toxicity will lead to lethargy among staff, slash team morale, increase voluntary turnover, and even spur an overall decline in company performance.\n\u2018Survivors\u2019 of a round of downsizing usually worry over questions such as, \u201cDoes the company have a promising future? Do we need to take over the sacked employees\u2019 responsibilities? Will our job responsibilities and positions be adjusted? Will our salary, bonus and welfare be affected?\u201d\nCompany leaders are not likely to come up with perfect answers to these questions all at once. Therefore, the key to dealing with these queries is to actively build mutual trust through all channels available, such as sharing information, answering employees\u2019 questions via group discussion or one-on-one conversations. Department managers should move quickly and decisively to outline organisational goals and reorganize work teams; also HR departments should help employees quickly adapt to new teams. Again, the goal is to rebuild employees\u2019 trust and shape their new psychological contract with the company. Research shows that companies that actively plan and execute these strategies have a lower voluntary turnover rate after structural downsizing. After all, managing downsizing is one of the key components in rebuilding an employer\u2019s brand reputation with survivors, potential employees and also among those laid off \u2013 they may be recruited again when the company faces a labour shortage.\nDuring the process, companies should also pay special attention to high performers and high potential employees, because they have more opportunities in the market. After a round of job cuts, the organisational structure tends to be flatter, and thus reduces promotion opportunities in general. Capable mid-level managers are more likely to leave if they foresee fewer opportunities for career advancement. A strong effort to encourage and empower these people after the downsizing will reduce undesirable turnover. Articulating goals and career paths whenever possible also helps to alleviate employees\u2019 fear and uncertainty about the company\u2019s future \u2013 and theirs.\n--Follow CEIBS @CEIBS\n--Follow Russell Flannery @rflannerychina",

This process is designed to help couples make decisions regarding their property and ownership of that property. Often, if left alone, you and your ex may find these decisions to be contentious and unfair and oftentimes, completely unproductive. With the help of a third-party, you and your former spouse can explore what options are available and make important decisions in a controlled environment. Keeping the process moving smoothly is doable when you are fully prepared.\nThe Huffington Post suggests that exploring mediation is never a bad idea. In fact, it can end up being a decision that provides financial and emotional relief in the long run. As you prepare for your first mediation session, here are some of the things you may consider doing:\nHave self-control when it comes to feeling and expressing your emotions. Despite the tension you may feel, try to keep your emotions under control and maintain a realistic perspective.\nPrepare your financial documents and have them organized for quick reference if you need it during the session.\nWhen anticipating the mediation process, budget your time and money so you do not spend more than you are able to comfortably pay for.\nDo not waste your time arguing. Rather, try to engage in meaningful and focused negotiation to work towards acquiring the outcome you want.",

        "raw_content": "New York Attorneys Assisting Victims of Civil Rights Violations\nMany laws protect your rights in the areas of employment, education, and testing accommodations. If your rights are violated, or you suffer from retaliation for exercising them, you may wish to consider taking legal action. At Friedman & Houlding, our New York civil rights lawyers have been dedicated to representing employees and students for more than 50 years. When we take a case, we commit to trying your case to a jury if the defendant does not make an appropriate settlement offer. We can represent people who need a sexual harassment attorney or representation in fighting many forms of discrimination and wage violations in a wide range of industries.\nFederal, state, and local laws prohibit discrimination and harassment based on certain protected characteristics. Title VII, enforced by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), is the primary federal law prohibiting employment discrimination based on race, national origin, sex, and gender, among other protected characteristics. Discrimination occurs whenever an employer takes an adverse action based on a protected characteristic. For example, a supervisor who fires an employee because she refuses to grant a sexual favor has committed employment discrimination based on sex. However, sometimes the discrimination is more subtle. For example, an employer that enacts a policy that has a disproportionately adverse impact on people of one sex or one race may be liable.\nThe federal Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) as well as the New York State Labor Law and other laws govern wage and hour and overtime issues. In addition to paying employees at least minimum wage, employers also need to pay overtime to nonexempt employees who work over 40 hours in a single workweek. Most employees are \"nonexempt.\" Typically, only executive, professional, administrative, and certain sales positions are exempt from FLSA and other wage and hour or overtime rules.\nWe also handle civil rights lawsuits involving sexual and racial harassment in schools. Title IX prohibits sexual discrimination and harassment of students in educational institutions that receive federal funds. Title VI prohibits discrimination and harassment of students in educational institutions based on their race, color, or national origin. The discrimination or harassment must be so serious that it limits or denies a student's ability to participate in the educational program, the school must be aware of it, and the school must fail to take prompt and reasonable steps to eliminate the hostile environment, prevent its recurrence, and correct the effects. Generally, schools have notice of discrimination or harassment if a responsible employee knows or should have known about it. However, knowledge may be imputed to a school if the pervasiveness of the harassment is widespread, well-known among students, and openly practiced.\nUnder the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), an individual with a disability is someone who is physically or mentally impaired in a way that substantially limits a major life activity, including learning, reading, or thinking. The ADA provides that testing accommodations should be given to individuals with learning disabilities so that they can fairly compete for and pursue educational opportunities. Covered tests include college entrance exams, high school entrance or equivalency exams, admissions for graduate school, and licensing exams for trade and professional purposes. Examples of accommodations that may be required under the ADA are large print exam booklets, extended time, distraction-free rooms, and scribes to transfer answers or record dictated essays.\nConsult an Experienced Civil Rights Lawyer in New York\nThe New York civil rights attorneys at Friedman & Houlding can help you file a lawsuit for damages if you have been mistreated in the workplace or elsewhere. Our firm also represents people who have been harmed by civil rights violations in Connecticut, New Jersey, Virginia, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Alabama, Tennessee, Georgia, Arkansas, Texas, Wyoming, Utah, and Nevada.

The cognitive and neuropsychiatric symptoms seen in these patients is extensive, reflecting the severity and duration of progressive neurodegeneration as well as iatrogenic complications stemming from pharmacotherapies that aim to alleviate the movement disorder. A key question is to what extent it is possible to parse the heterogeneity of these symptoms into distinct patterns of cognitive impairment and psychiatric dysfunction, and thus promising treatment targets. We believe this Research Topic is timely and will serve to highlight the need to address these problems in PD, which are currently often underdiagnosed and often go untreated.\nThe first aim of this Research Topic is to bring into focus and accurately characterise from a phenomenological / sign and symptom perspective, the range of neuropsychiatric symptoms in PD, such as depression, anxiety, psychosis, apathy, REM sleep behaviour disturbance, and impulse control disorders, as well as dementia. Their neurochemical and anatomical basis will be addressed, in relation to disease pathophysiology, complications ensuing from dopatherapies as well as their interactions. The Research Topic will examine relationships of the neuropsychiatric sequelae of PD to aspects of mild cognitive impairment seen in non-demented patients, such as different aspects of executive, visuospatial, attentional and mnemonic deficits. Psychiatric disturbance that precedes the onset of motor symptoms, indicative of early neurodegenerative events, and the utility of better understanding these as well as their utility in early and accurate diagnosis will also be discussed.\nThe superordinate theme of the collection will be to approach these diverse symptom entities from a neurochemical perspective with a view to optimising pharmacotherapy, by mapping them onto the trajectory of progressive deficits in dopamine, noradrenaline, serotonin and acetylcholine. Delineating the common neurochemical denominators of different impairment clusters with a view to patient stratification is central to effective symptom management. A subset of articles will review evidence from studies using common and repurposed pharmacological agents, and illustrate the utility of this approach to tailoring pharmacotherapy according to the complete clinical picture of the individual.",

        "title": "Fremont-Winema National Forest - Mountain Lakes Wilderness",
        "raw_content": "Mountain Lakes Wilderness\nBefore its eruption and subsequent transformation into a large caldera, the area we call Mountain Lakes Wilderness was a 12,000-foot mountain, one of the giants of the southern Cascades. Glaciation then carved up the caldera, leaving a scattering of small alpine lakes instead of one enormous body of water, such as Crater Lake National Park to the north.\nOnly eight prominent peaks remain of the caldera's rim. Unique to the National Wilderness Preservation System, this area is the only Wilderness with a perfectly square boundary. Long appreciated for its wonder, Mountain Lakes was one of the three original Primitive areas created in 1930 in the Washington-Oregon region. Mosquitoes fly thickly from snowmelt to mid-August, and provide food for the rainbow and brook trout in the lakes.\nThe 8.2-mile Mountain Lakes Loop Trail winds along the southern rim of the caldera, connecting three trails in the interior of the Wilderness: the Clover Creek Trail (4 miles) from the south, the Mountain Lakes Trail (6.5 miles) from the west, and the Varney Creek Trail (4.5 miles) from the north. Beyond the eastern boundary lies private land.\nKey access points: Trailhead and trail information\nRemember: The wilderness is an environment that is unpredictable so bring clothing and supplies for all types of weather and situations.\nGroup size is limited to 10 people and/or stock in any combination.\nTrailhead/Trail information:\nClover Creek Trailhead - Clover Creek Trail\nMountain Lakes Trailhead \u2013 Mountain Lakes Trail\nVarney Creek Trailhead - Varney Creek Trail\nMountain Lakes Wilderness is easy to reach. The hub of the maintained trail system is the Mountain Lakes Loop Trail in the core of the Wilderness. It traces an 8.2 mile path around the caldera rim. You can reach Mountain Lakes Loop trail from the north by way of the Varney Creek Trail (4.4 miles); from the west on the Mountain Lakes Trail (6.3 miles); or from the south by way of the Clover Creek Trail (3.3 miles).\nAspen Lake, Lake of the Woods North, Lake of the Woods South, Pelican Bay. Download free U.S. Forest Service Topo maps.\nMountain Lakes is unique, yet its geologic history is similar to that of Crater Lake National Park, its famous neighbor to the north. Like Crater Lake, the landscape contains a large caldera (a broad crater-like basin) formed by the explosion and collapse of a volcanic cone. Unlike Crater lake, the caldera is filled with many smaller lakes rather than one big one.\nIt all started several million years ago with a series of volcanic eruptions that built a massive composite volcano. Covering about 85 square miles and towering over 12,000 feet, the peak was one of the giants of the southern Cascades. The same forces that built this great volcano then destroyed it.\nFollowing the collapse of the peak, ice and snow accumulated in the caldera, eventually forming a series of glaciers that breached the caldera rim. As these rivers of ice spread down the flanks of the mountain, they reshaped it.\nToday, eight prominent peaks are all that remain of the original rim. Repeated glaciations continued to shape the land, gouging out beds for the many small lakes, each with its own personality and unique environmental setting.\nMore images of Mountain Lakes Wilderness available on Wilderness.net\nhttps://www.fs.usda.gov/recarea/fremont-winema/recreation/recarea/?recid=60185",

        "raw_content": "0:12Skip to 0 minutes and 12 secondsNow that we've learned the importance of keeping fit and active and keeping our muscles strong, we're going to see some of the exercises that might help you do that. These exercises are designed to prevent falls, build confidence and keep you independent and healthy. During the exercise class we start with a warm up. Usually it lasts about 15 minutes, and during it we do some simple stretches to get our muscles moving a bit better. Ann is the instructor for the class, and here she describes a little bit more about what the class involves. If you come to one of these classes you will be doing some exercise. We start with the warm up. You can stand up or sit down.\n0:57Skip to 0 minutes and 57 secondsThere's a mixture of abilities. We do endurance, we do balance, and strength exercise, and a cool-down. It's great fun. So after you've warmed up, we move into the endurance section of the exercise class. During this you'll be doing exercises such as marching using a chair for support, and side-stepping. If you're not able to stand, doing these exercises while seated is an option. The next section is a balance section. It usually lasts about ten minutes, and people perform heel and toe stands, still using their chair for support. They balance on one leg and then the other, and then perform tandem walks forwards and backwards.\n1:45Skip to 1 minute and 45 secondsThe final section is a strength section. In this section we perform exercise for outer thighs, legs, wrists, and spine, usually using resistance bands if you have them available. Again, you can perform these exercises seated or standing if that's easier. At the end of the class we'll finish off with a cool-down section. This usually lasts about ten minutes and involves some more stretches to make sure that you keep your muscles loose.\n2:19Skip to 2 minutes and 19 secondsHaving watched this film, you'll understand more what's involved in an exercise class and you'll be able to see the kind of exercises that we use to encourage people to maintain a healthy lifestyle, keep their muscles strong, and be more active.\nFalls prevention exercises\nWelcome to our final week. This week we will look at more things we can do to help treat and prevent falls.\nThere is no doubt that keeping active will keep the body more healthy during the ageing process. Exercise is one of the most effective treatments for people who fall. It not only improves muscle strength and function but it improves balance and stamina. It helps keeps nerve signals strong, keeps the inner ear healthy and maintains a healthy cardiovascular system.\nAlthough exercise is good for our general health, not all exercises have proven benefit in preventing falls. We will explore different types of exercise in one of our following steps.\nThis video contains exercises specifically developed for falls prevention. Here, the exercise is performed in a class; this is one of the most common ways of delivering this treatment. However, some exercises can be taught in people\u2019s own homes on a one-to-one basis, or sometimes may be delivered in a clinic. Exercises can be provided to anyone, regardless of their ability.\nHowever the treatment is delivered, it is one of our most powerful therapies. Watch this video to experience what a falls prevention exercise class looks like.\nCan you think of any more benefits of attending a class like this?",

        "title": "New targets for maternal survival",
        "raw_content": "0:09Skip to 0 minutes and 9 secondsCLARA CALVERT: In this session, we will discuss the current targets which have bee set for maternal health and then, look at what the new targets for maternal survivor will be post 2015. The Millennium Development Goals are eight international development goals. Maternal health is tied up in several of these goals. It is the goal of MDG 5, with the target of decreasing the maternal mortality ratio by 75% between 1990 and 2015, as well as ensuring universal access to reproductive health care for all woman. Maternal health can also be linked to a number of the other Millennium Development Goals, including poverty reduction, female empowerment, and infectious diseases, as women die from diseases such as malaria when they are pregnant.\n0:55Skip to 0 minutes and 55 secondsSo have we made progress in MDG 5? Globally, the maternal mortality ratio dropped by 45% between 1990 and 2013, from 380 to 210 maternal deaths per 100,000 live births. However, this still falls far short of the MDG target to reduce the maternal mortality ratio by 3/4 by 2015. And there's certainly still substantial progress to make, with other indicators showing that only half of women in developing regions receive the recommended health care during pregnancy.\n1:28Skip to 1 minute and 28 secondsSome countries are on track to achieve MDG 5. One example is Egypt, where the maternal mortality ratio has declined by 62%, from 120 maternal deaths per 100,000 live births in 1990, to only 45 maternal deaths per 100,000 live births in 2013, as shown by the red line on this graph. We've seen a corresponding increase in skilled birth attendants, shown by the green line on the graph, from 35% in 1988, to 79% in 2008 and then, the contraceptive prevalence rate, shown in blue, from 31% in 1988 to 60% in 2008.\n2:10Skip to 2 minutes and 10 secondsThere are a number of factors which are thought to have contributed to this decline in maternal mortality in Egypt, including increase in utilisation of care, provider training, introduction of standards of care, facility upgrades, and public awareness campaigns. Some of these interventions were specifically targeted to maternal services, and some were wider programmes aimed at the health system as a whole. However, a cautionary note-- Egypt is now facing new challenges with respect to maternal health, in particular, overmedicalisation, with, for example, C-section rates rising from 4.6% of births in the five years preceding 1992, to 50% in 2014, and also has a growing private sector.\n2:59Skip to 2 minutes and 59 secondsSo as we approach the end of the Millennium Development Goals, it is clear that while there's been some progress, there's still a lot of work to be done in the area of maternal health. In April 2014, UN agencies, donors, country stakeholders, and other development partners met for a consultation on targets and strategies for Ending Preventable Maternal Mortality, EPMM, and agreed that by 2030, the average maternal mortality ratio should be less than 70 maternal deaths per 100,000 live births. Additionally, it was agreed that no country should have a maternal mortality ratio greater than 140.\n3:39Skip to 3 minutes and 39 secondsIt has additionally been stated that the ultimate goal is an effective end to preventable maternal mortality by 2035, with a global target of no more than 50 maternal deaths for every 100,000 lives births. This graph shows us the progress we've been making in bringing down maternal mortality. The thick pink line shows the current downward trajectory we are on. We can see that for 2015, the predicted MMR remains much higher than the target MMR for Millennium Development Goal five, as indicated by the star. The dashed pink shows the accelerated trajectory we will need to aim for in order to reach the 2030 global target average of an MMR less than 70.\n4:24Skip to 4 minutes and 24 secondsIf we can reach this trajectory and continue it beyond 2030, then by 2035, we would expect the global MMR to be less than 50 per 100,000 live births, which is equivalent to the high-end MMR for the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development countries, in 2010. Now, under the leadership of the United , Nations stakeholders from around the world are working to finalise the next global development framework. The Sustainable Development Goals are expected to set the agenda for development programmes and policies around the world when MDGs expire in 2015. As of July 2014, the draft SDG framework included 17 goals, including goal three, a broad health goal to ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all ages.\n5:19Skip to 5 minutes and 19 secondsThis goal is expected to encompass that outlined on the previous slide, to reduce the global maternal mortality ratio to less than 70 per 100,000 live births by 2030. There will be further information provided on the SDGs in week six of the course.\nNew targets for maternal survival\nIn the video, Clara Calvert discusses the progress made over the MDG period and how we have seen dramatic reductions in maternal mortality (MDG 5A). However, MDG 5B, universal access to reproductive health for all women, has been less successful in reaching its targets.\nBeyond the MDG era, two new sets of goals for maternal health have come into effect: the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and Ending Preventable Maternal Mortality (EPMM). This step identifies the new targets that have been set for maternal health from 2016 onwards.\nThe SDG framework and goals will be the focus of the sixth and final week of the course.",

In the mid-1990s we were looking at purchasing a tract of land between Waters Lake and Christmas Lake and spent some time canoeing and swimming in Christmas Lake and hiking around Waters Lake.\nRecently when we visited the two lakes again we found Waters Lake was dry as far as we could see and Christmas Lake was almost dried up.\nHow did we allow these two productive beautiful lakes to get to their current state? Clearly a long-term drought is part of the problem, but maybe an even more important cause is the use of ground water for agricultural operations in the area of the two lakes.\nThe current system of issuing Consumptive Use Permits to agriculture is failing to protect our lakes, wetlands, springs, and rivers. One of the requirements that should go with the issuing of a Consumptive Use Permit is the assurance that lakes, wetlands, springs and rivers will not be harmed by the permitted use.\nUnfortunately, the Suwannee River Water Management District has not applied a rigorous enough review of permits to ensure that damage does not occur. As a result we have lost and are losing wetlands, lakes, springs and rivers.\nThe reason we visited the two lakes again is the Suwannee River Water Management District Governing Board just approved a Consumptive Use Permit for a new dairy to be located about a mile east of the two lakes. That permit allows for almost 3.8 million gallons a day of ground water to be pumped out. If that permit is allowed to stand Christmas and Waters Lakes may be gone forever.\nThere are other locations for a 2,000 acre dairy. There is only one location for Christmas and Waters Lakes. Once you destroy these two unique natural lakes they may be lost for our lifetime.\nIn the spirit of the season, let's save Christmas Lake.\nPaul and Kathy Still live in Starke.",

        "title": "WWE 2K17 Review | GameGrin",
        "raw_content": "// Reviews // 4th Nov 2016 \u2014 2 years ago // By Thomas Hughes\nI love wrestling, it\u2019s probably one of my favourite things. Unfortunately, in the last few years, I\u2019ve not cared for the 2K WWE games. They always seem to hit way below the mark and fall short of what I would like or have come to expect out of a wrestling game. All you have to do is go back to the noughties to see excellent examples of what a wrestling title should be, games like Smackdown: Here Comes The Pain or WWE: Day Of Reckoning. These were games that put fun at the forefront of everything, with authenticity and realism coming second. So here we are, another year, another 2K wrestling title.\nI\u2019m honestly happy and surprised to say that 2K have made some really impressive changes to this year\u2019s edition. Thanks to a new clause in superstar contracts, all wrestlers had to go through an extensive mo-cap session, meaning that each character entrance and animation set is incredibly lifelike. This coupled with a new lighting system means that the entrances look fantastic, with a few of them attaining near photorealistic graphics - Finn Balor is one such example.\nThe enhanced animations make controlling wrestlers a much less homogenous experience. Each individual wrestler moves like their real life counterpart, on top of that, the movesets are also recreated pretty damn well. It's the kind of detail that really hardcore wrestling fans are going to notice.\nSubmissions and reversals have been given somewhat of a facelift. The submission system now involves a mini game where players have to rotate a bar within a small circle; those who are put into a submission must escape the bar of their opponent. It's a nice attempt at innovating the button mashing of previous years, but it still falls far short of what the UFC games offer. The reversal system has a slight new addition in mid-move submissions that players can perform for additional damage to their opponent. The best example of this is when an opponent picks you up for a body slam. If you hit the reversal right, you'll fly over the back of them and transition into a swinging neck breaker. It's something that adds a more tangible element to the game, making it feel like you're actually controlling a wrestling match.\nThe usual array of modes are on offer, ranging from straight singles matches to a full Royal Rumble. The level of customisation is staggering, with players being able to fine tune everything from arena choice to the belt that's up for grabs. Unfortunately the multiplayer doesn't follow suit, offering players very little in the way of choice. Myself and a friend were incredibly disappointed to find out we couldn't play a two-on-one handicap tag match, along with a whole load of other stipulations that aren't included.\nMultiplayer also seems to suffer from the age-old issue of terrible netcoding. This is something 2K get wrong every single year, it makes both grappling and countering incredibly frustrating, almost to the point where it feels counter-intuitive. This is mostly because you are having to estimate what the lag input will be before hitting a trigger. This pretty much sullies the entire experience for the most part as you lose the fluidity that makes wrestling so fun. This is one of the aspects of the series that still needs a lot of work, and I don\u2019t believe it will be fixed until they create a new engine for the title.\nOne of the most impressive aspects of this year\u2019s entry is the roster. A lot of effort has been put into creating a lineup that features both new and old talent, and for all the Attitude Era fans there\u2019s Stone Cold Steve Austin and American Badass Undertaker. found the fact they they locked several NXT wrestlers behind a \u00a379.99 special edition, incredibly infuriating, especially as they put Shinsuke Nakamura in that bundle. I severely hope they release him as DLC post-release.\nCareer mode is back again, with somewhat of a fresh take on things. The underlying framework is much the same, start low on the roster and build your way up earning championships as you go along. This time around players are able to perform promos, which can be done between matches and rely on players to pick from a set of statements in a certain time. The crowd then judges your promo skill, rating you good or bad. Better promos earn you more points and heat for your character. When you do finally capture your first championship you also have the chance to become a Paul Heyman guy. Paul Heyman is what\u2019s known as a manager in the WWE, he currently accompanies Brock Lesnar to the ring. This mode has him become your manager, taking you under his wing to be an anti-authority figure within the WWE.\nPre-release there was quite a big deal made about the fact that P-Diddy, Puff Daddy or whatever diddy he goes by these days was on board to curate the game\u2019s soundtrack. It's surprising as there's only about 8 officially licensed tracks in the game, so it feels kinda half arsed to be perfectly honest. On the flip side, there's a whole bunch of wrestler entrance themes you can use instead, they are far more awesome.\nAre glitches in 2K17? Yes! Yes! Yes! The glitches present in 2K wrestling games have become a bit of a running joke in recent years. They often end up bordering on the silly side of things, rather than causing frustration. The usual array of clipping bugs are here including wrestlers clipping through the ring, wrestlers clipping into the crowd, wrestlers clipping into weapons and my personal favorite: wrestlers clipping through themselves. It never happens often enough to infuriate but it does remind you that 2K are still using the same engine they've had for years.\n2K17 is a big step in the right direction, it feels like 2K have taken a lot of fan feedback into consideration and truly attempted to craft a wrestling game worthy of the WWE brand. New ideas and innovations help move the franchise forward, but a lot of the same bugbears are still prevalent. Until we get a new engine I believe we are always going to be waiting for that truly amazing wrestling game experience. Until that happens, 2K17 is a nice bridge between that gap.\nWWE 2K17 (Reviewed on PlayStation 4)\nNew ideas and innovations help move the franchise forward, but a lot of the same bugbears are still prevalent.

        "raw_content": "Have you been charged with operating a motor vehicle under the influence of alcohol or drugs? Being charged with operating under the influence of alcohol/drugs has some very serious implications both for you and your family. If you are in this situation, you want a New Bedford OUI attorney who is both knowledgeable in defending OUI matters and is willing to fight for your constitutional rights. Gary Pacella understands the nuances of these cases and will carefully investigate your situation to determine all of the defenses that may be available to you. He knows how much is at stake and can make sure that your voice is heard.\nWhen you have been charged with operating a motor vehicle under the influence of alcohol, and you are convicted of operating under the influence of alcohol, or you plead guilty to the charges, the penalties run the gamut from fines, fees, probation sentences, and driver education programs to potentially years of incarceration.\nOn October 28, 2005, Governor Romney signed a new drunk driving law, Chapter 122 of the Acts of 2005. Also known as Melanie's Law, the law increases the penalties for repeat drunk driving, creates new penalties for driving while intoxicated with a child in the car, and requires ignition interlock devices for certain repeat offenders.\nWith the enhancement of drunk driving laws with the implementation of Melanie's Law, it is important to note that there are increased penalties for repeat drunk driving offenders, including longer license suspensions, higher fines and fees, and longer jail sentences. This makes it especially important to consult an OUI lawyer in the New Bedford area who can aggressively protect your rights.\nAnother important note is that with any plea, there is a license loss associated with a plea or conviction by the court. There may also be an additional license suspension imposed by the Registry of Motor Vehicles in addition to the court's suspension.\nOther issues that may be raised include whether there was a breath test given and whether the results were above 0.08%. A breath test result of 0.08% or higher is presumptively considered operating with your ability to safely operate a motor vehicle being impaired. However, there are ways to attack breath test results, and New Bedford OUI lawyer Gary Pacella knows how to do that.\nThere are also field sobriety tests conducted by the police at the side of the road. These tests are also used by the police to aid them in detecting drivers operating under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Some of these tests include the one leg stand test, the 9 step walk and turn, the alphabet test, and the horizontal gaze nystagmus test.\nNo matter your specific situation, Gary Pacella will work diligently with you to resolve your matter. He will personally meet with you and review your complaint and police report, carefully listening to your side of the story. Serving people in New Bedford and surrounding communities, OUI attorney Gary Pacella will craft a defense with the ultimate goal of getting your case dismissed if possible, and if not possible, to lower your risk of the possibility of a prolonged probationary period, or in the worst case scenario, incarceration in the house of corrections or state prison. He also can assist people who are facing other criminal charges or who need a personal injury lawyer to bring a claim after an accident. Contact him online or at 508-525-5147 for an appointment.\nOUI/DUI Defense | New Bedford Drunk Driving Lawyer Law Office of Gary Pacella",

This is Andalucia, a corner of the world rich in art and culture, with a culinary tradition that will leave your mouth watering. More than 10 years have passed since I settled here.\nA PASSION FOR SPANISH HAM\nMy passion for jam\u00f3n started long before I settled down permanently in Spain. It couldn't have been any other way...\nI remember my first contact with Iberian acorn ham as though it were yesterday. It was a summer night, in one of those typical Sevillian bars in the old city. Manolo, a cheerful waiter of slight stature, dexterously cut thin slices of ham as though he were playing a violin. It was a joy to watch him work. My palate shared in this delight as I tasted for the first time a delicacy that I would never forget. Every time I remember that evening, my mouth begins to water.\n\u201cA gem, an authentic delicacy that has the power to drive us wild\u201d\nCAREFREE ENJOYMENT\nIt might surprise you, but not all Spanish hams are created equal when it comes to flavour and quality. Many of the small, family businesses that produced their hams artisanally with love and care have been forced to give way to industrial producers. Driven by competition, and above all by the desire to earn greater and greater profits, they are flooding the market with cheap, low quality hams. At the end of the day, it is food lovers like ourselves who ultimately lose out.\nTo separate the wheat from the chaff, and bring only the finest hams to the table, we make regular culinary journeys with the goal of finding this gem, this authentic delicacy that has the power to drive us wild. We want you to be able to enjoy it free from care!\nPieter and the Gastroiberico team",

        "raw_content": "1980 C.F. Martin & Co. MC-38 R & D prototype Excellent, Original Hard, $2,650.00\nC. 1980 CF Martin MC-38 Cutaway R & D prototype\nThis is an unusual guitar, and most likely unique, the only one of its kind. It was built sometime around 1980, though the exact date cannot be pinpointed. The guitar is M sized (0000), and the first M size guitars were put into production in '76. The first cutaway guitars (a DC-28 and an MC-28) went into production in 1981, so it can safely be assumed that this prototype pre-dates production of those models. But both of those models, and every Martin cutaway since, had Venetian (rounded) cutaway. This Florentine cutaway prototype may be the only of its kind to exist. Note that this cutaway is consistent with Martin's early cutaway designs, that is, it has the oval soundhole and 22 fret board rather than the standard 20 fret board. The guitar bears no production serial number, though it is stamped on the neck block with an R & D number \"236\", and that number appears in ink on the inside of the dovetail joint both on the neck block and the tenon of the neck along with the marking \"R & D\" for Research and Development. According to the folks at Martin, the R & D guy most likely responsible for building this guitar was John Huber, who is known for a number of other interesting prototypes that have shown up over the years, including a steel string 12 string guitar built with the body of an N-10 that I had and sold a few years back.\nThis guitar, first and foremost, is just a great instrument. Solid Indian rosewood back and sides, solid Sitka top, mahogany neck, ebony board and bridge, recognizable Martin craftsmanship and design throughout. The headstock has the factory decal but the body has none of the other typical Martin markings or brands. Nevertheless there is no doubt as to its origin. The back strip is the same multi color marquetry strip used on the M-38 and the top binding package is similar to an M-38 as well and the top has a pearl rosette like the M-38. However, the neck and headstock are not bound. The guitar appears to be entirely original, though there is some question as to whether the pickup/electronics in the guitar are factory original. The guitar has one tiny pickguard crack under the B string that has been repaired and no cracks anywhere else. The top finish shows some play wear but nothing serious. It has been played but not abused. The back and side finish is clean as is the neck. The original bridge is in good shape and tight to the top. The top is flat under tension and all of the interior bracing is intact and secure. The bridge plate is in good condition.\nThe guitar has just had its neck reset and refretted. The neck is straight under tension and the angle is good. The action is set at just a shade above 6/64\" at the low E measured at the 12th fret and 4/64\" at the high E with saddle showing above the slot. 25.4\" scale, 1 11/16\" nut width and 2 1/8\" pin spacing. The guitar plays well all over the neck with no buzz though someone with a heavy attack may want the action raised a bit. Excellent set up for finger style but can be played with a pick and moderate attack with no problem. The intonation is good. The pickup works fine and is equipped with on board volume and tone controls that are mounted at the bass shoulder of the body. The acoustic voice of the guitar is huge...big volume and projection, fast to respond and excellent sustain. The guitar exhibits excellent balance across its range. Very responsive to a finger style attack but robust enough to take the flat pick. This is an excellent guitar all around. As rare as rare gets...comes with its original hard shell case. $2650\nMake C.F. Martin & Co.",

        "title": "/ Phil Collins: About those tour dates",
        "raw_content": "Background info and some history\nWhen the Oceania dates for early 2019 were announced it became official: This will be the first time in his solo career that Phil Collins extends a concert tour across three calendar years. The tour motto has been updated to honour this circumstance: Not Dead Yet \u2013 Live becomes Still Not Dead Yet \u2013 Live. In a similar manner, the Both Sides tour became the Far Side Of The World tour in 1995, while the Trip Into The Light tour became the Dance Into Europe tour in 1997 when it crossed the Atlantic (reports from those tours can be found on our website).\nThe tour began at the Echo Arena in Liverpool, UK, on 2 June, 2017. At that time it was the return no one thought would happen anymore, the return of a visibly frail Phil Collins to the big stage after almost ten years. What began as a brief comeback tour through a handful of European cities extended by no less than five other legs of the tour. England and Scotland were next (in November 2017), then South America (February and March 2018), then North America (October 2018). Soon Phil Collins will tour Oceania (January, February 2019). Almost exactly eighteen months after the tour left Europe (after the Birmingham show on December 03, 2017) the tour will come back to Europe. Additional concerts in the \"old world\" had never been ruled out and became ever more likely, especially when Collins\u2019 tour bass player Leland Sklar talked about it a few weeks ago.\nThe third European leg of this tour will begin exactly two years after the initial tour start in Liverpool at the Ernst Happel stadium in Vienna, Austria. Does the name ring a bell? Indeed, a show at this stadium had been planned as the second show of the First Final Farewell tour in 2004 before it was moved for logistical reasons (slow ticket sales may have been the real reason) to the smaller Stadthalle. That show took place on 3 June 2004, almost exactly fifteen years before the day Phil Collins will play in Austria\u2019s capital again.\nFrom Vienna they will go to Lyon, France, where Phil Collins has played on every tour since 1985. This will be the first time he does not play a theatre show but at the Stade Groupama, which was inaugurated in 2011 as Stade des Lumi\u00e8res. The venue is also known as Parc OL (short for the local football club Olympique Lyon) and has nothing to do with the old Stade Gerland, where Genesis played in 2007.\nAfter the brief stint in France Phil Collins comes to Germany, as he has done on every European tour. He will play in stadiums in Stuttgart and Berlin. This is going to be a first for Stuttgart because he has only in the Schleyerhalle. Open-air concert are not rare for Phil Collins in Berlin \u2013 remember the famous Waldb\u00fchne video of the Serious tour and the 1994 show at the Maifeld next to the Olympiastadion. You could say that Phil Collins has slowly approached his 2019 venue over the years.\nA show in Denmark was not necessarily in the cards. It was 1998 when he last played there, at the Copenhagen Tivoli on his second Big Band tour. Collins will leave the Danish capital for the first time and play in central Denmark: Aarhus is the second largest city in Denmark (though Copenhagen is much larger), and the Stadion Ceres Park, home to Aarhus GF football club, is going to host his show.\nThe tour stop in Bergen, Norway, is a similar surprise. As in Denmark, Collins has only played the Norwegian capital so far, with his last solo show there dating back to 1997. In 1998 he played a brief set at a show to celebrate the awarding of the Nobel Peace prize. Like Aarhus in Denmark, Bergen in West Norway is the second largest city in the country. The venue, Koengen, is not a stadium but an open air concert venue where several concerts and festivals take place every year.\nThe tour of Scandinavia ends in the Swedish capital Stockholm. As of now (27/11/18) no venue has been given, though Phil Collins has played the Globe Arena every time since 1990. The exact venue will be announced in the next week or two.\nBack to Germany. Hannover is a Phil Collins (and Genesis) stronghold with no less than four sold-out shows at the Niedersachsenstadion in 1994. The HDI Arena, where Genesis played in 2007, stands on the very same location. There might be an additional show in Hannover: There is a two-day break before the show continues in Italy, and if demand for tickets is high that gap may be stopped with another show.\nMilan hosted the first show of the First Final Farewell tour in 2004. The Mediolanum Forum was still called Filaforum when Phil Collins played there. This will be (depending on the Stockholm venue) the first and one of only two indoor concerts next summer.\nIt may remain the only show in Italy, too, for the next day will see Phil Collins cross the Alps to play the only show in Switzerland. As in 2004, the Collins tour circus will stop at the Letzigrund Stadion in Zurich.\nMoving down the river, Phil Collins will play Nijmegen, The Netherlands, for the first time. He has not played there with Genesis nor solo. Their usual tour stops in the Netherlands were Den Haag, Rotterdam, Utrecht and Amsterdam. The show at the biggest town in the Gelderland province will take place at the Goffertpark, an open-air venue in the park with the same name.\nCologne is (besides London), the second city on the (Still) Not Dead Yet \u2013 Live tour to which Phil Collins returns. London happened, of course, because he fell in his hotel room and had to cancel two shows at the Royal Albert Hall. These cancelled shows were made up for in later 2017 on his tour through England and Scotland. Cologne, Germany, hosted no less than five shows at the Lanxess Arena in June 2017. Some two years later the returns to the city with the famous cathedral to play the RheinEnergie stadium for the second time after 2004. After this show there is another two-day break which suggests that an additional show may be inserted here, but Cologne will definitely be the Not Dead Yet capital.\nPhil Collins has always played in the Olympiapark in Munich, Germany. In 2004 he moved to the Olympiastadion from Olympiahalle. In 2019 he is going to play at the stadium that is only used for concerts nowadays. The fact that no less than five (and possible even more) concerts are scheduled in Germany indicated how large a fan basis Phil Collins has here. The logistically advantageous position in the centre of Europe does not hurt either.\nPhil Collins has played in Prague only in 1997 and 2005. Had he not fallen ill just before them, his First Final Farewell tour shows there would have been two of many. As it was, the concerts were moved to the end of the tour and became his last full solo concerts until he returned to the stage two years ago. This (and Milan) is going to be the only indoor concert on this leg of the tour.\nDespite many shows in Eastern Europe on the First Final Farewell tour 2005 there is a glaring gap in his tour schedules: Poland. Phil Collins is going to play in Warsaw for the first time. In 2007 he played a famous show in a thunderstorm in Chorzow near Katowice, now he plays the capital. The tour will end there at the PGE Narodowy \u2013 at least for the time being. There is no need to worry about bad weather: They roof of the Warsaw stadium can be closed.\nDespite all the enthusiasm the tour dates will have triggered in Scandinavia and Eastern Europe the disappointment on the Iberian peninsula will be equally large. Spanish and Portuguese fans will have to travel at least to Lyon or Milan to see Phil Collins. And British fans will wonder despite the exclusive shows in late 2017 why Collins does not play a single show on the island.\nThis leg of the tour comprises at least fifteen shows. This brings the total for the tour up to 79, and the concept can be extended indefinitely. If one additional show is announced the number of gigs equals those of the Dance Into The Light tour in 1997, and surpassed it if a second one is added. Never mind a \u201cselection of shows\u201d, we are talking about a full-blown world tour that has quite the size of all his previous tours. Who would have thought two or three years ago? In 1997, his tour was sponsored by Toyota. Their slogan in Germany was \u201cNothing\u2019s impossible\u201d back then. But it obviously very true today.\n(Still) Not Dead Yet Live - all dates and ticket info\nNot Dead Yet - tour and show reports\nNot Dead Yet - forum discussion\nPhil Collins: About those tour dates Comments:",

        "raw_content": "The days when we bought our food in shops that specialised in one particular thing \u2013 we\u2019re talking butchers and greengrocers not posh delis \u2013 are a distant memory for many.\nBut small producers are fighting back and, aided and abetted by a growing number of consumers who want to know where their food comes from, good farm shops are playing a part in the true food revival.\nJust outside Reading is one such enterprise set up by a farmer and his family, who have been farmers for at least four generations.\nGraham Adams and his wife Caroline opened Lockey Farm Shop and Butchers on Sindlesham Road, Arborfield, in November. They are already taking on a second butcher, and demand for their eclectic array of produce is so great they hope to open seven days a week from next month.\nThe lamb comes from Graham\u2019s own flock of 200 ewes, beef (the herd wins awards) comes from brother-in-law Andrew, some of the pork comes from their own Saddleback pigs and sister-in-law Janice manages the shop. Even Uncle gets a look in as his arable farm opposite supplies barley to feed livestock.\nThe lamb is reared on \u2018stewardship land\u2019, which means it\u2019s one step away from organic. The shop is almost entirely sourced from small producers who have an eye for quality, and who believe in traditional production methods. Many of the suppliers refuse to supply supermarkets. You can buy honey that comes, not just from Lockey\u2019s own bees, but from a number of villages in the area including Emmbrook, Eversley, Binfield and Hurst.\nBut what really strikes you about what\u2019s on offer is that everything has been sourced for it\u2019s quality.\nGraham and Caroline started out selling hens eggs from the boot of their car.\nThat was 10 years ago. Since then their passion for quality food that has been properly produced has clearly grown and grown.\nThe shop cost a risky \u00a3210,000 to set up, and DEFRA helped. Graham talked Taste all the way around the shop, citing where everything came from \u2013 Newbury preserves, three different traditional flour suppliers, healthy looking chicken from Suffolk (Lockey chickens are for laying), the fabulous Rock\u2019s cordials and squashes from Twyford, gluten-free cakes from Winnersh, Two Hoots and Wigmore cheeses, fresh soups, amazing pates, ice cream from Sherfield-on-Loddon, their own eggs (goose, duck and hen) \u2013 it\u2019s impressive.\n\u201cIt\u2019s all about family. It\u2019s traditional. We\u2019re people who care about what we do and we want to offer the best quality.\n\u201cI think today people want to establish the link between food and farmer. People often don\u2019t know where their food is coming from, they just pick up a packet in a supermarket and they don\u2019t know what\u2019s in it. We really want people to know where it comes from. We only use products we\u2019re happy with, and can trust so if we don\u2019t think it\u2019s right, we don\u2019t have it.\u201d\nThere were a few \u2018odd\u2019 items on the shelves. When asked about the Reece\u2019s \u2013 an American chocolate brand - Graham sheepishly confessed he likes chocolate. And, of course, Taste spotted the Cartmel sticky toffee puddings, again, Graham\u2019s doing but they are a real success story in terms of a cottage industry in their own right.\nLockey Farm Shop does sell things you may not associate with a farm shop like pasta, but all the products have been carefully sourced, either directly or through Reading-based suppliers and everything can be used to compliment the jewel in the shop\u2019s crown, the butchers.\nGraham is licensed to sell game and rabbit is in the chiller. Pheasants have been a real success story.\nButcher Phill Scully has 38-years of experience. He also actually talks to customers and can advise on all things meat related. His love of the job shines through and he told Taste that the Lockey sausages are made from a recipe that goes back more than 120 years. In fact, Phill has revived the recipe and even had to get special permission in order to make them. It is their best seller.\nThe counter, which sells meat hung for at least 21 days, also offers a variety of sausages, from beef and horseradish to garlic and coriander. Flavours change regularly, and they are always experimenting.\nFruit and vegetables are from a local supplier who uses trusted markets from around the Heathrow area, and Graham is very keen to hear from any local producers who believe they can offer top quality, seasonal produce.\nTo find out more, call (0118) 976 1063, or pop in. They are open 9am-5pm Wednesday to Saturday, 10am-4pm Sunday.",

        "raw_content": "Chronicle of a deregulation disaster foretold, by Maria Kielmas.\nWhen governments worldwide began to liberalise their electricity markets in the 1980s, and to deregulate them in the 1990s, all the interested parties - policymakers, utility company executives, financiers and re/insurers - were persuaded to believe that this would be a long, though admittedly untried, process of risk transfer. The market, financing, credit and environmental risks associated with power generation, would be shifted from the captive customers of a centralised, usually monopolistic parastatal power generator to the shareholders, financiers and re/insurers of private sector companies which had bought formerly state-owned assets.\nThe process coincided with the development of new power generation technology using gas turbines, which in turn provided a market for significant discoveries of natural gas. Until then, oil and gas companies had deemed such gas reserves to be of limited value. In the industrialised world this gave governments the opportunity to promote policies enabling the substitution of natural gas for coal in power generation, and to tackle truculent coal mining unions. Governments in the developing world hoped to attract foreign investment and new technology into privatised or part privatised energy sectors during an era when the Washington Consensus - that mix of fiscal discipline and free markets - was the accepted mantra.\nThis was also a time when the insurance and banking sectors were converging. In the energy industry the gas and electricity sectors were converging. But what few foresaw a decade-and-a-half ago was that the energy and finance industries would not only converge, but result in electricity shortages, market manipulation, fraudulent trades, the Enron bankruptcy and 'mark to just about anything' accounting. Such is the scale of power utility debt which needs refinancing that numerous bankruptcies are still expected and a massive sector restructuring will be required over the next few years in North America and eventually in Europe. Energy trading, the great innovation of the 1990s, has all but expired in the US while it remains only hesitantly alive in Europe. The fundamental issue underlying all of these problems has been the inability of policymakers, market makers, financiers and re/insurers to appreciate the physical nature of the energy industries in general, and the electricity sector in particular.\nThe re/insurance industry's first lesson in how the reformed electricity sector would behave came with a spate of business interruption claims. Under the former centrally-controlled, state-owned system, the power generator did not buy business interruption insurance; instead the captive customers - the general public - suffered power cuts. In the deregulated energy market, power generators which failed to deliver as contracted would not just lose earnings but would also have to pay a penalty.\nNew gas turbine technology has also been a major problem, explains Aon executive director Rob Woods, who is currently setting up a power and utilities team in London. Utility companies would try to take advantage of power price volatility and ratchet up power generation capacity during price spikes. In the US electricity market these could typically be of the order of $1,800 per megawatt-hour (MWh) when the average price was around $30 per MWh. Re/insurers had been accustomed to dealing with power companies who operated their turbines with a large margin of safety. But in the new market the independent power producers (IPPs), also known as merchant plants, were sometimes using untested gas turbines. As a result, machinery breakdown claims surged from about 20%-25% of total claims prior to energy market deregulation to about 75% after deregulation.\nSome of the largest price spikes in the US electricity market during the period 1999-2000 were caused by natural catastrophes in the Mid West. But many others were the product of now notorious 'wash trades', whereby companies simultaneously bought and sold electricity to the same counterparty in the hope of boosting profits by reporting ever-higher trading volumes. In addition, the costs of repairing gas turbines had been underestimated leaving re/insurers to pick up the slack. The soft reinsurance market of the time meant ever-lower deductibles, so re/insurers were getting a higher frequency of lower level losses, notes Woods.\nEventually, major players such as Cox Power and Brockbank ceased providing this type of cover. Re/insurers have wisened up as their own market has hardened. Machinery breakdown premiums have risen by 300% in some cases while business interruption insurance is offered only up to a particular power price cap so that the insurer will not be liable for spot price spikes.\nAlthough the worst of the business interruption and machinery breakdown losses occurred in the late 1990s, during an unusually soft period in the re/insurance market, Woods acknowledges that re/insurers at the time did not appreciate what was happening in the energy industry and how technology was developing. But a worse problem has been that the players in the energy market itself did not understand what was going on. So, as competitive electricity markets have evolved, their consequences have been largely unforeseen and the mitigation and management of associated risks remains at a conceptual stage.\nWhile re/insurers invest much manpower in estimating potential losses from natural disasters, disaster preparedness in the energy sector comes at a price which may not be acceptable in a deregulated or part-deregulated market. Efficient energy markets require a minimum level of redundant (spare generation) capacity. Recommended disaster preparedness in, say, California, states that power generators should hold at least 20% redundant generating capacity. But California's botched electricity sector deregulation and subsequent crisis have been such that power companies are unable to plan properly for standard - let alone redundant - supply. Policy makers and power companies in California are not interested today in hearing about the possible economic consequences of another 1994 Northridge-type earthquake. The economic losses associated with this earthquake were given as $25bn at the time but the losses due to the state's energy crisis could be in the order of $100bn or more. Electricity companies take the view that redundant capacity equals a loss of earnings, especially if power prices peak at $1,000 per MWh.\nNevertheless, most of the economic losses following the 1999 Chi Chi earthquake in Taiwan were due to a lack of redundancy in the power transmission system. There was only one main transmission line from generating centres, situated in the south of the island, to the large industrial users, which were situated in the north. And the resultant disruption of computer chip manufacture hit California's IT sector just ahead of the state's energy crisis.\nNo-one could foresee what would happen when a competitive electricity market was introduced in the UK in March 2001. The previous arrangement was an Electricity Pool operated by the National Grid Company (NGK). Power generators would bid to supply the pool, with the highest bidder setting the next day price. But this was subject to considerable price manipulation, so the New Electricity Trading Arrangements (Neta) were introduced to avoid this, with the political motive of providing some element of protection for the near-defunct British coal industry. But one unforeseen result of this has been that wholesale power prices in the UK have slumped by 30%, bringing the country's largest generator, British Energy, to the brink of bankruptcy.\nPower companies on both sides of the Atlantic rushed to invest in new generating capacity which, they believed, would take advantage of a growing, competitive market. But electricity demand did not reach the companies' unrealistically high, often spurious, forecasts. Under a US accounting rule brought in during the late-1990s, and partly rescinded in December last year, energy companies were able to book profits from long-term electricity supply contracts on a mark-to-market (MtM) basis. This enabled them to account for profits from multi-year contracts within the first year and was widely abused. But the recent change in rules still does not include derivatives trading, where the price exposure is the same. Critics say the inadequacy of this rule change illustrates a lack of clear thinking on the part of the authorities and their overall knee-jerk reaction to the US power sector crisis, which could have potentially disastrous consequences.\nFlawed trading\nUS companies such as Enron, Dynergy and Aquila were instrumental in creating electricity trading mechanisms and introducing these in Europe. The idea here was that the deregulated electricity market could adopt trading and hedging instruments and price modelling developed from the financial markets. But seasonality, extreme volatility and mean reversion (where price spikes fall back to the prevailing average) of power prices is not seen in the fixed income markets. More importantly, electricity is not just another commodity. It cannot be stored like wheat, sugar or oil, and cannot be held, like equity. It is a continuous process which functions within a circuit to provide heat and light and operate appliances in real time. So arbitrage - where a trader can take advantage of price spreads between national markets - is not really applicable.\nNevertheless energy traders resorted to off-the-shelf methods developed in the financial markets to price instruments such as options, futures and derivatives. Famous among these was the Black-Scholes method, a framework for pricing options developed in the early 1970s by economists Fisher Black and Myron Scholes, the shortcomings of which were already apparent to the financial markets when it was adopted by energy traders. When these models couldn't cope with power price volatility the modellers attempted to compensate by evolving ever more complex solutions, and the supply of analytical solutions and software aimed at modelling future prices became a growth industry. Graduate mathematicians with a grounding in stochastic differential equations, but no understanding of the idiosyncracies of the electricity markets, such as regulatory or transmission constraints, became the kingmakers of power trading. But they might as well have been throwing dice. There was little liquidity in the new energy trading market; power price data was limited, expensive, manipulated and unreliable. So, elaborate mathematical models of future power prices were meaningless. As a result neither policymakers nor company executives had a clue about the risks they were taking and regulators never made it clear what was a measure of risk, says Rene Carmona, Paul Wythes professor at Princeton University's department of operational Research and Financial Engineering.\nOverstated trading earnings - in Enron's case this was about 95% of its business in the year 2000 - contributed to the disintegration of the power market. Enron hid much of its trading losses in now notorious off balance sheet entities. But power companies who used such special purpose entities (SPEs) for legitimate project financing of joint ventures are now coming under extra scrutiny from politicians, credit rating agencies and insurers. Despite the claims of power companies in North America and Europe to have developed risk management strategies to protect themselves from counterparty and credit exposure, the credit risk issue has hardly been addressed, says Carmona. Credit risk received much attention in the academic literature, he explains, \"but this does not matter if these elucubrations remain confined to academic textbooks.\" He add: \"There is an enormous gap between what is understood at the research level and the everyday practice of risk management. This is especially true of the energy markets.\"\nWith a huge number of power projects seeking refinancing, financial guarantee insurers such as XL Capital Assurance are hoping to cherry pick the best deals. These companies provide financial guarantee and triple-A credit enhancement for investors in the power and utilities sectors. Power companies' debt refinancing faces many problems associated with forward power price projections and continuously changing regulatory and environmental rules. And there is still no agreement in the power trading sector on what a real measure of risk is. The long-preferred measure of risk in a portfolio, one-day value-at-risk (Var), is increasingly viewed as a convenient alibi for those executives who do not understand their risks at all. None of the elaborate price forecast models could predict the California crisis and the slump in UK wholesale power prices. One credit analyst suggests that if anyone in the UK had predicted that in early 2002 power prices could fall by 30%, they would never have been taken seriously.\nMeaningful dialogue\nAfter the upheavals of the last two years, power companies have taken on board the need to disclose the proportion of their earnings that comes from generating activities, from structured deals and from trading activities. The next step is to encourage meaningful dialogue between the engineers dealing with the wires, pipes and oil/gas wells, financiers, re/insurers, market makers and policymakers. Rene Carmona is trying to promote just such a dialogue at Princeton University. He believes that academics are just as guilty in the energy market's disasters as everyone else. Such recognition of the nature of the problems in the energy sector could be the first step in understanding and managing its risks.",

So much so, that the penalties alone are enough to wipe out all of a person\u2019s offshore investments, assets and income.\nCommonly issued penalties may include reporting of foreign income and accounts, including:\nThis information is not intended to scare you, and not everybody gets hit with penalties. It is just that under the current IRS regime, the state of the law right now is for the IRS to focus its efforts on offshore compliance. The reality is that there are so many different International Tax Forms a person may be required to file, that depending on the type of assets, the number of accounts, the type of income, and facts and circumstances of each case \u2014 the IRS penalties can really stack up.\n10 Steps to IRS Offshore Compliance\nIf you have recently discovered that you are out of IRS compliance for failing to properly including foreign income on your tax return, here are 10 steps to getting into compliance quickly, safely and effectively.\nWhat Type of Foreign Income do You have?\nNot all foreign income is treated the same. Typically, foreign capital gains is going to receive the same long-term or short-term treatment under US tax return as if it was a US asset. For example, even though in India, Long-Term Capital Gain (LTCG) is 36 months, in the United States it should qualify as LTCG as long as it was held for one-year.\nMoreover, depending on which country you have your assets in, if you are receiving dividends, you may be able to obtain qualified dividends (this will often depend on whether there is a treaty and/or if the stock is traded on an acceptable foreign market). If you are receiving foreign interest income (even if it is in a country such as Hong Kong and Singapore, which does not tax that category of passive income) you are still going to have to report that and pay US tax at your ordinary tax rate.\nHow Much Foreign Income Do You Have?\nIf you only have a few dollars of unreported income, your compliance method may be different than if you have tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars of unreported income. In addition, since the total amount of income you have is aggregated with your Domestic or U.S. based income (in order to determine your gross income), it is important to have a firm understanding of how much foreign income you have not reported when you first begin your research\nDid You Pay Foreign Taxes on the Income?\nIf you already paid foreign taxes on your foreign income, either by filing a foreign tax return or having money withheld from your account abroad, then you may be entitled to a foreign tax credit in most circumstances. The purpose of the Foreign Tax Credit is to avoid or limit any double-tax on foreign income you earned abroad but already paid on, and/or have had tax withheld by the foreign government.\nUnfortunately, the Foreign Tax Credit is not always a dollar-for-dollar credit. There is an equation that is applied by the IRS, and if the foreign income is going to increase your U.S. tax bracket, then depending on the amount of income and the tax rate you paid overseas, it may impact whether you will still owe tax to the IRS on your U.S. tax return \u2014 even after applying the foreign tax credit.\nWhen Did you First Learn About the Foreign Income?\nHave you known about the foreign income for many years or were you only recently clued in (either on your own, or by one of your parents or other relatives that told you that you have been listed on some of the foreign accounts, apartments or other income generating assets abroad). At Golding & Golding, IRS Offshore Voluntary Disclosure of foreign income, assets, and investments is the only area of law we practice \u2013 even though your situation may seem unique, chances are we have seen something just like, it or similar to it in our many years of Law and Tax practice\nHave You Been Filing U.S. Tax Returns?\nIf you have been consistently filing US tax returns to report your U.S. source income (presuming you have any), that will put you in a better position and increase your offshore amnesty options when it is time for you to submit an IRS Offshore Disclosure package to the IRS, disclosing your foreign money. The IRS has developed various offshore amnesty programs to assist individuals with getting into compliance safely regarding their unreported foreign income.\nResearch the Different Offshore Tax Amnesty Options\nThere are numerous bad articles and fear mongering websites on the Internet that will lead you to believe that any unreported income is bad, and will automatically subject you to excessive fines, penalties and 20 years in prison. This is absolutely untrue. Most of these tax \u201cprofessionals\u201d are trying to scare you out of your wallet or pocketbook.\nThe reality it is, is a far stretch to go from non-willful to willful. And, solely because you have unreported income does not mean you are willful. It is important to research the law properly, by either doing your own due diligence or speaking with an experienced IRS Offshore Voluntary Disclosure Lawyer\nResearch Different IRS Offshore Disclosure Law Firms\nThere are many firms out there that will take any case that comes across their desk Chances are that most of them will not have the requisite knowledge and experience to represent you in an IRS Offshore Voluntary Disclosure matter \u2014 which is typically a very specialized area of Tax Law.\nLikewise, an attorney with less than 15 years of experience or someone who does not practice exclusively in the area of offshore disclosure/international tax may not have the requisite experience you need. Since 15% to 20% of our business comes from people who were at other firms first, we have seen firsthand the unnecessary fear and scare tactics practiced at other firms.\nMeet Your Attorney and Review Their Experience\nReview the Options Carefully\nOnce you\u2019ve had the opportunity to engage in a comprehensive discussion with the actual attorney who will be handling your case, it is important to evaluate the situation carefully. At our firm, our attorneys are both international tax lawyers with Masters of tax law degrees in addition to a law degree, as well as enrolled agents.\nAs such, when you speak with the attorney assigned to your case you know not only who will be preparing the legal aspect of your submission, but that same attorney will also be preparing the tax preparation aspect of it is well. The attorney will be signing his or her name to the tax return, so you can be sure that they would take great care in preparing and presenting your package to the IRS.\nToo many times, an attorney who is not also a CPA or enrolled agent will simply find the least expensive tax preparer in town upon your case off to because the attorney will make the most money by only having to pay minimal fees to an inexperienced tax preparer.\nOnce You are Ready, Make your Offshore Disclosure\nIt is a very scary ordeal to take the first step towards getting the compliance. With that said, there are a few hurdles to be aware of if you take too long to decide:\nThe IRS can stop the program at any time;\nthe IRS can increase the penalty at any time (is increased significantly since the program first was introduced)\nif you are audited or examined for any reason, you lose the right to apply for offshore disclosure.\nIRS Compliance \u2013 What Happens if I do not Report?\nHere\u2019s the deal: there is no way to know whether you will be one of the unlucky ones the IRS audits. The IRS is understaffed and underfunded \u2013 which is a double edged sword.\nOn the one hand, the chances of being audited are relatively slim \u2013 although this does increase based on factors such as foreign income, foreign accounts and highly compensated earners, but overall many people will go their whole life without ever being audited.\nOn the flip-side, if you are audited, it can become a very arduous process and very difficult to negotiate with the IRS when they are only operating at 20 or 30% capacity. In other words, trying to get somebody on the phone could take hours upon hours of your time. The IRS is a major bureaucracy, and trying to make your way through the different levels is very difficult.\nCompounded by this time issue, is the fact that the IRS has the right to issue various means of recovery against you (against both your US and foreign property, income, accounts, etc.), such as:\nFIRPTA Form 8288 \u2013 Foreign Person & U.S. Real Estate | IRS WithholdingFBAR Penalty Collection \u2013 IRS Lien, Levy, Seizure & Passport Revocation",

Golf architect Thomas McBroom has artfully woven a spectacular course design around the seaside dunes of Prince Edward Island's north shore, incorporating panoramic views and plenty of challenge. The highly acclaimed course incorporates nine water holes, eight dunes holes and greens built to U.S.G.A. specs - just some of the reasons The Links at Crowbush Cove has earned a five-star rating from Golf Digest and has been chosen to host major tournaments such as the Export-A Skins Game.\nScorecard for Crowbush Cove\nWhite M: 70.8/132 W: 76.9/144 348 306 467 334 567 156 331 161 324 2994 407 548 153 371 481 350 349 97 400 3156 6150\nGreen M: 66.8/114 W: 71.7/131 308 306 396 289 492 156 306 161 266 2680 351 457 153 300 417 350 207 97 350 2682 5362\nRed M: 67.1/113 W: 69.7/124 308 266 396 289 492 81 306 68 266 2472 351 457 114 300 417 255 207 87 350 2538 5010\nHandicap 9 17 7 3 1 11 5 13 15 4 2 18 12 6 14 10 16 8\nArchitect Thomas McBroom (1994)\nWay over rated\nOver rated!\nGreens in poor shape for the price, driving range a waste of time, a sea of divots. Front nine was nice, back nine good until 16 & 17. It\u2019s like they ran out of room and put in two pitch and putt holes so they could have 18.\nBut wait, it gets worse, We went to the hotel for dinner, one of the worst meals ever! I had the pork loin. It was so bad I do t know why I didn\u2019t send it back.\nDon\u2019t waste your time or money!\nGreens were rock hard\nThe views are great and the course other than the greens were in very good condition. Greens are elevated and rockhard so it\u2019s very difficult to land a ball on the green and keep it on. So then your chip shot requires a very soft touch to keep it on the green. This was very aggrevating to all of us.\nHole 17 is a joke, a short par 3 with the green high above the tee box. All you can see is the flag. All of us hit shots that we thought would be on or near the green, but three balls could not be found.\nJeffArenson\nDenver Advisor\nPEI's Best\nI actually played here back in 2012 as part of a PEI/Cape Breton Vacation. Of the courses I played on PEI, this was the best one. There is diversity as you play through trees, along the coast and in a marshy area. You will find yourself looking at the dunes to the east and wondering what could have been; that area is protected from golf/real estate. Regardless, the links is misleading, but the course is a lot of fun and does have some quality holes. The course is in great condition. Most people will love the holes near the water, but strategy comes into play on all of them. You might find the short semi-blind uphill par 3 17th to be quirky or fun. The par 3 8th is probably everyone's favorite. The par 5 eleventh needs an epic drive to get over the marsh that acts as Cardinal bunker in 2. This will get mixed reviews. Over all, the golf is very good for players of all handicaps. As for the resort, that would earn 5 stars. Stay on the property. The restaurant has great food (get the PEI mussels), and the accommodations are top notch. Off the course, the beach area is lovely with the towering dunes looking like they were imported from Ireland, and the water is warm up here. The golf has everything you need for warm up. As an overall experience, I think you need to stay and play here if on PEI. The golf is really good and that makes it worth the stay.\nA Bit Overrated\nVey expensive for what is really a parkland style course set out in the middle of nowhere with only 4 0r 5 truly links styles holes. Apart from that it's a very enjoyable golf course. Some great holes.\nOne of Canada's best golf experiences\nThere's a lot of good to great golf on PEI, but Crowbush, simply put, is the main draw. With ocean views as stunning as it gets, a great variety of holes and outstanding conditions, Crowbush is a very memorable experience. My only criticism is there are a couple of holes that are almost impossible for the less skilled golfer. But then again, I don't believe all courses have to all things to everyone. There are many courses in the top 100 that aren't very playable for high handicappers.\n18thhole\nI was a bit underwhelmed by this course. It only really has 5 or 6 holes along the water, the rest have more of a parkland feel. They are very nice parkland holes though! Some spectacular views along the way. After playing a third round I started to like this course. It's challenging, but fair. Fairways are fairly generous, very important to be on the right section of the green with your approach so pick up the pin placement sheet when you check in. They had a very tough winter so right now there is some winter kill showing. Good not great\nEasily the best course on PEI, greens were a bit rough a number of years ago, most are now the best I've ever played. ive played at least 50 different courses in Canada. Fairways are perfect and the views of the Ocean and beaches are amazing! This course is very difficult, I am a 10 hdcp and set goals to break 90 here.\nBabyLama2014\nMiami Advisor\nIt was a hit or miss with the weather on this day for us, really windy some holes, little rain for some others, followed by some holes of perfect weather.. Regardless the conditions of the course were amazing. I really enjoyed all of the views too! simply spectacular. As mentioned in a previous review this course is extremely difficult. Don't try to be a hero and play from the big boys tees. Play within yourself. Some of the holes are very long and difficult and yes, easily the fastest and wildest greens I have ever played also. My golf game has drastically improved since I played there, so I would like to see where I would stand after my 92 in '2012. But if you love golf with beautiful conditions and a BIG BIG challenge.. this is the place you need to go!\nThe Links at Crowbush Cove will forever be PEI's top dog\nIt must have been a very bad experience for anybody to give The Links at Crowbush Cove a two-star rating. No matter how rough of shape or how bad the service, this course will always be one of Canada's best and certainly the premier golf experience on PEI. Yes, I can see calling it \"overrated\" compared to price - it is expensive - but that's the going rate of ocean golf these days. I haven't played on PEI since 2006, and I can still vividly recall some of the views from the course. That's the sign of a memorable moment. I've played hundreds of courses since then, but those images are burned in my brain. The greens were a bit too wild for my tastes, and a couple of holes felt too difficult. Minor annoyances they are on an otherwise fine round of golf.\nThe greens where in poor condition. The course was way overrated. Price for green fees was too high for the value\nRequest A Vacation Quote From GolfPEI.ca\nPlease provide your information below and a staff member at GolfPEI.ca will be in contact to help you start planning your travel.\nVernon River, Prince Edward Island\nStanhope Golf and Country Club\nVistaBay Golf Course\nCountryview Golf Club\nFairview, Prince Edward Island\nGlen Afton Golf Club\nCornwall, Prince Edward Island\nThe Links at Crowbush Cove: Tough test in a beautiful PEI setting\nPhoto gallery: Links at Crowbush Cove among the most demanding courses on PEI in Canada\nThe Links at Crowbush Cove: view of the 6th green\nView from the no. 8 at The Links at Crowbush Cove\nBridge on the 7th hole at The Links at Crowbush Cove\nView from Crowbush Cove's 6th hole\nView from the 7th hole at The Links at Crowbush Cove\nView from the no. 16 at The Links at Crowbush Cove\nView from the 7th tee at The Links at Crowbush Cove\nLinks at Crowbush Cove: View from the 6th green\nLinks at Crowbush Cove: View from #8\nLinks at Crowbush Cove: View from the 2nd fairway\nLinks at Crowbush Cove: View from #11 with the clubhouse in background\nLinks at Crowbush Cove: Bunker\nLinks at Crowbush Cove: Aerial view\n710 Lakeside Road, Route 350, Morell, Prince Edward Island, C0A 1S0",

In Central New York, New York State Assemblyman Magnarelli and I have created a task force composed of local mental health professionals and grassroots healthcare organizations to address gaps in pediatric mental health care in Central New York.

        "raw_content": "Success Special: For GQ\u2019s Editor, this is where it all began\nEditor Che Kurrien goes back to his days in NYC\nPhoto: Che Kurrien\nSome of life\u2019s greatest triumphs are met alone- private arcs that can\u2019t be explained fully or honestly to anyone. Only you can truly understand, because only you\u2019ve witnessed it all. These moments aren\u2019t filled with rapturous applause, and are usually imbued with nuance and texture that can\u2019t be captured on our manicured social feeds.\nAn incredibly random set of circumstances caused me to be studying journalism in Manhattan soon after 9/11.\u2028I was 22 at the time, feeling my way into adulthood, reluctant to abandon the excesses of my American undergraduate years. Yet I was acutely aware that I needed to grow up fast, get a job, make some money, and that\u2028this wanton phase was coming to an end. My visa would expire soon, and I would return to India \u2013 hoping to make it as a journalist, with a wholly different life just around the corner. So I bit greedily into the Big Apple.\nI had some savings from working a deadbeat market research job in New Jersey, which I used to pay for my tuition at NYU, and to rent out an apartment in the East Village that I shared with four students from the Tisch film school. Most evenings were spent on the roof drinking 40s of Miller High Life, then devouring $1 hotdogs at the no-frills Gray\u2019s Papaya. The day\u2019s plan was determined by serendipity: One night my roommate Dean discovered that Ziggy Stardust was playing on 70mm at a fading cinema on Houston Street, and bought us tickets. I entered the dark, cold hall not knowing what to expect \u2013 and left two hours later bewitched and transformed forever. A few days later, I witnessed 70-year-old reggae master Burning Spear give the most hypnotic performance, the air in the Edwardian theatre rife with songs of revolution and smoke from the kindest bud. On July 4th, we sipped cheap summer wine in Central Park while watching the New York Philharmonic Orchestra perform Tchaikovsky. It was perfect till I clumsily sprayed insecticide into the eye of a woman next to me.\nWhile I was feasting on the artistic bounty available in the greatest of cities, I was also working hard on my writing, and my effort began to bear fruit: I\u2019d been polishing an essay for a couple of months, and the first editor I pitched bought it on the spot. To get my first piece published on the Op-Ed pages of Newsday, New York\u2019s third largest newspaper, was a serious shot in the arm. I started believing in myself, and that I could have a successful career in journalism back home.\nOn my final night in New York, two days before my American visa expired, Dean and I rode the subway to the Bronx to watch the Yankees play the Oakland Athletics,\u2028in what turned out to be a historic 16-inning game, which was later immortalized in the movie Moneyball. That night I spent my last greenbacks at Gray\u2019s Papaya on a feast with Dean, and the following morning flew out of Kennedy airport to a different life in Mumbai.\nI return to New York fifteen years later. A Cadillac Escalade whisks me to the chic Andaz hotel on 5th Avenue, located across the street from the New York Public Library, its imposing stone lions keeping vigil. On entering the Tony Chi-designed lobby, a friendly host greets me by my name, and leads me to an expansive loft-like room that\u2019s reminiscent of wealthy apartments in pre-war New York. From my room high above the street, I gaze through the 12-foot ceiling-to-wall windows, catching a glimpse of the sunlight bouncing off the Empire State Building and other Art Deco masterpieces dotting the stretch of America\u2019s most storied street.\nThat evening, I don\u2019t head to the divey bars of Alphabet City like the old days, but walk towards Times Square, and line up outside the Eugene O\u2019Neill Theatre to catch a superb play: The Book Of Mormon. Fifteen years ago, I would have dismissed Broadway as a tourist trap; but this critically acclaimed masterpiece is bursting with vitality, humour and truth \u2013 the kind that one only fully appreciates as an adult. For a nightcap, I head to The Bar Downstairs, located in the hotel\u2019s basement, and listed as one of the best speakeasies in Manhattan. The space is gargantuan, dimly lit and dark-walled. I set myself up at the 14-foot-long bar made of walnut that\u2019s polished to a high shine, and exchange banter with the tattooed mixologists.\nThe next day I check into what is arguably the city\u2019s finest new hotel: the Park Hyatt New York. Old timers may swear by The Plaza (once owned by Trump and now Sahara), but for the modern gentleman there\u2019s likely no better address in New York than this minimalist marvel\u2028\u2013 located a block from Central Park, and housed in a stunning 75-storey building that stands out even in the imperious New York skyline.\nUnlike many of the grand hotels of the city that are populated by crusty New York aristocracy, the Park Hyatt has a decidedly international bent, with staff from across the world, reflecting the nationalities of the guests \u2013 a jet set who fly in from all corners of the earth. At the time I am there, the hotel team are working out how to best service the intricate requirements of a Saudi prince\u2019s 30-strong entourage, who are visiting during Ramadan. Yet I also notice Upper East Side types enjoying a spa day by the jaw-dropping indoor pool. This global mix of guests and staff gives the property a uniquely New York feel. It doesn\u2019t have the cool East Village vibe, but one that\u2019s very high- end, understated and detailed: from the group of gloved doormen who greet you with genuine warmth at the street, and spirit you to the lobby upstairs, to the locally sourced Le Labo toiletries and cavernous personal bar in each room that stocks Krug. I dine that evening at The Back Room, the hotel\u2019s uber-masculine grill, where I sink into a high- backed chair and carved up a filet mignon \u2013 medium rare. For a moment, I feel like the king of the world.\nLater that night, I take a stroll downtown to catch a glimpse of my old apartment building. It looks exactly the same, with its strikingly beautiful brick fa\u00e7ade and black cast-iron windows. A profound sense of gratitude wells up within me.\nI had been happy then; and I\u2019m happy now.\nIn This Story: Apple Cadillac Hotel India Le Labo Manhattan Mumbai New York Serendipity Social Uber Visa Watch",

        "raw_content": "Exiles: A Play in Three Acts Including Hitherto Unpublished notes by the Author.\nby Joyce, James.\nThis edition was limited to 1900 copies for public sale. A Near Fine copy in a Very Good plus clipped dust jacket with a small chip near the top edge of the spine and a small water spot at the front fold of the jacket flap, else a very collectible copy. Slocum A-16. The author notes included in this edition of Exiles were uncovered after Joyce's death and appear here for the first time. \"Exiles\" draws on the story of \"The Dead\", the final short story in Joyce's story collection Dubliners. The basic premise of Exiles involves a love triangle between Richard Rowan (a Dublin writer recently returned from exile in Rome), Bertha (his common law wife) and his old friend Robert Hand (a journalist). (There are obvious parallels to be drawn with Joyce's own life \u2013 Joyce and Nora Barnacle lived, unmarried, in Trieste, during the years the fictional Rowans were living in Rome, while Robert Hand is roughly the same age of Joyce's friends Oliver St. John Gogarty and Vincent Cosgrave, and shares some characteristics with them both.) This arrangement is slightly complicated by a second love triangle, involving Rowan, Hand, and Hand's cousin Beatrice Justice. (The fictional Beatrice, who in the play has recovered from a life-threatening illness, is just two years younger than Joyce's cousin Elizabeth Justice, who died in 1912.)\nEdition: First Printing of the First Viking Edition",

Our first full length album, \"What We Have Become\", is complete. There are ten songs in the album, four of which have never been heard before the release of this album, and two others that we don't often play live. It features our unique brand of hard hitting rock and roll that explores a wide range of sounds and styles. With the expertise of Tyler Schmalz of Red Dot Recording, we were able to find precisely the sounds we wanted to make our music come alive and to breathe new life into songs we had been playing for years. Some of those songs were even some of the first we ever wrote as a band. This led to many long nights in the studio. Sometimes we had a plan and knew exactly what we wanted to do and others it was a bit of a guessing game and required some ingenuity and improvisation. But, in the end we were able to record exactly the album we imagined.

We can assist with planning a strategy of any outsourcing projects, helping to identify potential risks and issues in advance so they are provided for during the process. We can assist on appropriate and effective performance management criteria and ensure that the parties have the key rights to promote a successful arrangement.\nWe understand the practical challenges of implementing effective outsourcing and are always willing to share the benefit of our experience with our clients. Our advice frequently covers:-\nIP licencing and ownership\nKnow how licences\nEmployment, HR and TUPE\nEffective termination of arrangements.\nIntellectual Property (IP) including confidential information is now more than ever a key asset to any business. With the rapid advancement in technology and ever more competitive markets, it is important to all businesses to protect their investment in the IP, not just to those whose core activities relate to technology or IP. We have experience of advising clients on key IP issues including ownership and licensing. In particular, in all commercial relationships dealing in some way with IP, ranging from purchasing a website to licencing the use of trademarks, it is necessary to consider who owns the IP, what rights the parties have in respect of the use of it, what period of time this should last and what happens when such a period expires. Often this needs both practical and legal consideration and we will take time to understand your needs, your activities, and within that context ensure the key issues are covered. Our experience includes:-\nTrademark licences\nIf you are looking to form a company in England and Wales we have the experience and expertise to guide through the company formation process and make the experience as simple and stress free as possible. We will take time to understand your business venture so we can help you make the right decisions about its future.\nThe majority of small and medium term enterprises become limited companies which need to be registered at Companies House. We can handle this initial incorporation for you as well as help you create a bespoke constitution for your company. If you are in the early stages of starting a business and are ensure what to do next we will talk you through all of your legal requirements and responsibilities and advise you on whether taking the step of becoming a company is right for you. We can also assist you when it comes to drawing up a shareholders\u2019 agreement. This will ensure that there is a fair relationship between those who hold shares in your company and protects their investment by producing a series of rules and regulations. We can create an agreement which meets your exact requirements and sets out how your company will be run, how decisions will be made and will regulate the sale of any shares in your business. Shareholder agreements are important as they make sure things are done fairly and everyone knows where they stand.\nThe formalities of starting and running a business partnership can be surprisingly simple and straight forward. Unlike a limited company, there are no fees or paperwork required to set up the partnership and no requirement to file annual accounts on the public register. It is, therefore, all too easy to overlook the importance of entering in to a professional prepared partnership agreement.\nIn the absence of a partnership agreement to the contrary, the default position is that:-\nAll partners have the right to participate in the management of the partnership;\nAll profits shall be shared equally;\nAll ordinary partnership business will be decided by a majority of the partners;\nFundamental decisions effecting the partnership will require unanimity;\nIf one partner leaves or dies, the partnership will be automatically dissolved.\nIf partners have invested different amounts of capital into the business it is often more appropriate for voting and profit sharing to be weighted in favour of those who have invested the most in the business. Equally, where there are more than two partners it will undoubtedly be preferable for the partnership to continue if one of the partners has left the partnership or died. In addition to dealing with these aspects of the partnership, a partnership agreement can be useful in setting out procedures for dealing with any future disputes between partners.\nWe have the experience here to advise individuals as to the most appropriate circumstances for their partnership arrangements.\nAnother issue that our business legal advice covers is the Limited Liability Act 2000, which allows for the creation of a Limited Liability Partnership. An LLP enables the partners to benefit from some of the advantages of a limited company without abandoning a partnership\u2019s flexibility.\nAll of these deal with permission from one party to sell or distribute products and services belonging to another party. Each can have very similar features although there are important differences:-\nAgency agreement \u2013 the agent sells goods or services on behalf of the seller, the customer\u2019s contract is with the seller not the agent. The agent does not acquire ownership of the goods or services.\nDistribution agreements \u2013 the distributor sells goods he acquires from the seller, but the distributor \u201ctakes title\u201d to the goods (in other he buys the goods from the seller). The customer\u2019s contract is therefore with the distributor, not the seller.\nLicencing agreement \u2013 a \u201clicensee\u201d is granted the rights to provide goods or services to customers using the brand name or intellectual property belonging to the \u201clicensor\u201d.\nSupply agreement \u2013 this agreement documents the terms under which the supplier supplies goods or services. Typically it covers matters such as pricing, payment terms, product warranties, retention of title clauses. Often it comes in the form of set of supply terms and conditions.\nSome contracts can be hybrids containing elements of more than one of these types. For example, a licence agreement often has a distribution element to it, and elements of supply terms and conditions will often form part of an agency agreement.\nAt Gross & Co we take care to talk you through your various options for your supply arrangements, so that you can make the choices that best suit your business objectives\nWe act for both borrowers and lenders and other security holders on most aspects of banking, finance and security work.\nWe also act for businesses and high net worth individuals in situations where they are acting as lenders (perhaps to finance a property development or other venture).\nWe can deal with all aspects of this work from drafting facility agreements and priority arrangements through to dealing with taking and perfecting security. We have significant experience in relation to acquisition finance, secured property lending, asset finance and invoice discounting.\nOur experience of acting for borrowers and lenders in relation to these transactions means that we can anticipate lenders\u2019 requirements, and the various technical issues which may arise, and deal with these in a way which minimises delay and unexpected costs.\nBuying or selling a business or company can be a once in a lifetime event, so it pays to make sure that you are getting the right advice.\nWe have experience in corporate transactions ranging from owner managed businesses through to in-house legal teams and acquisitions of large corporate groups.\nWe understand the different pressures and issues which these transactions raise for these different types of client and tailor our approach accordingly to make sure that each client receives the level of communication and support they need.\nWe cover the full range of private company transactional work including:\nBuying and selling businesses and assets\nBuying and selling shares in a company\nManagement buy-outs, buy-ins etc.\nGroup re-structuring and hive-downs\nWe help buyers and sellers to deal with all aspects of the acquisition and disposal process. The major part of this work typically involves dealing with legal due diligence and the drafting and negotiation of the purchase agreement and disclosure letter. We can also assist in raising finance to fund the transaction, whether via banks or private equity.\nGraeme has specialised in business immigration law since 1981.

        "raw_content": "While no S.C. court ever has applied Sharia law, Grooms argues there have been cases in other states where courts have. \u201cNot all the time is American jurisprudence upheld,\u201d he said.\nGrooms pointed to a New Jersey case where Sharia law was cited by a trial court in a sexual-assault case involving a Muslim couple. However, the trial court\u2019s decision was reversed by the Superior Court of New Jersey.\nGrooms says his bill would ban S.C. courts from considering all religious laws \u2014 Sharia is just an example, he adds \u2014 whose application would violate rights established under the South Carolina and U.S. constitutions.\nSharia is a set of principles derived from Islam that govern various aspects of life, from marriage to divorce to finance to fasting and prayer. Aspects of Sharia are incorporated in the legal codes of some Muslim countries. But Muslims around the world vary in their practice and interpretation of it, said Mutahir Sabree, a trustee of the Islamic Center of Columbia.\nSabree likens Sharia to Talmudic law in the Jewish faith, and he brushes aside as ridiculous the idea of imposing Islamic law in the United States.\n\u201cWe see these attempts as fear-mongering, playing to the ignorance and fear of the unknown,\u201d Sabree said. \u201cAs Muslims in non-Muslim countries, to impose Sharia law on the majority society, or force our religion on anyone, would be violating our own belief.\u201d\nAs of 2018, 13 states had passed laws that forbid courts from considering any international law or a particular religious legal tradition \u2014 most often \u201cSharia law\u201d \u2014 that doesn\u2019t grant the same rights as the U.S. Constitution or a state\u2019s constitution, according to CAIR.\nProponents say the legislation is an effort to protect U.S. values and democracy.\nCritics of the legislation argue Sharia is as much a threat to U.S. constitutional rights as Old Testament Bible verses calling for the stoning of adulterers.\nThe American Bar Association opposes such legislation, stating it is \u201cduplicative of safeguards that are already enshrined in federal and state law.\u201d\n\u201cAmerican courts will not apply Sharia or other rules (real or perceived) that are contrary to our public policy, including, for instance, rules that are incompatible with our notions of gender equality,\u201d the Bar Association wrote in a 2011 resolution.\nThe association, too, warns such bills likely will have unintended and widespread negative consequences. Now, for instance, U.S. courts regularly must interpret and apply foreign laws in international business dealings and commercial disputes, marriages, divorces and custody decrees, it says.\nGrooms introduced similar bills in 2013 and 2017 that failed to move out of committee.\nIn 2016, however, the S.C. House passed a bill, 68-42, to prohibit state judges from making any rulings based on Sharia. That bill died in the S.C. Senate.\nGrooms\u2019 bill currently lacks a co-sponsor, suggesting it has little support in the Legislature.\nBut he is not giving up.\n\u201cEventually, we\u2019re going to crack this nut, and have the protections and safeguards many of my constituents have been asking for,\u201d Grooms said.\nSouth Carolina State House. 1/9/19Tracy Glantztglantz@thestate.com\nTeen charged in Rock Hill sexual assault case near Winthrop",

Fungi were classified into six genera and three species, the most common of which were Monacrosporium eudermatum and Arthrobotrys oligospora. We then sequenced five NF isolates using ITS4 and ITS5 primers. These sequences showed high identity with sequences from the NCBI database (98-99%). In contrast, alignments among the same genera and species demonstrated 83\u201397% identity. Polymorphisms observed between Arthrobotrys and Monacrosporium appear to be associated with differences in biological function, nonspecific mutations, evolutionary processes, feeding behaviour, predatory activity, and microecosystems.\nThe livestock industry is commonly affected by gastrointestinal parasitic nematodiasis, which causes serious deterioration in the health of both cattle and sheep worldwide [1]. A number of methods of control have been proposed to reduce both the parasitic burden in the animals and the economic consequences for animal production; however, the only control method that is currently available in most countries is the regular administration of chemical anthelmintic drugs as deworming treatments. While such drugs help to reduce the parasitic burden in the animals, disadvantages can include the rising threat of inefficacy due to anthelmintic resistance and residues in animal products that are possibly toxic for human consumption and for the environment. For several years, therefore, alternative methods of control against parasites have been under investigation.\nNematophagous fungi are microorganisms in the soil that act as natural antagonists of nematodes and are considered potential biological control agents against agricultural plagues and ruminant parasitic nematodes. Using selected strains of nematophagous fungi for biotechnological purposes requires performing several studies to assess trapping efficiency against target nematodes. Precise taxonomic identification of nematophagous fungi isolates is the first step in selecting possible candidates to assess activity against nematodes in both laboratory and field trials. Traditional taxonomic identification of nematophagous fungi is based on microscopic observation and measurement of different fungal structures, that is, mycelia, spores, conidia, conidiophores, trapping devices, and other typical features [2]. Valuable taxonomic identification guides for nematophagous fungi were published by Drechsler, 1941 [3], Dollfus, 1946 [4], and Duddington, 1955 [5], and a highly descriptive and useful taxonomic key was published by Cooke and Godfrey [2]. More recently, taxonomic revisions concerning Dactylaria and the Dactylaria-Monacrosporium complex were published by de Hoog [6] and Rubner [7], respectively. These works are considered useful tools for taxonomic identification of nematophagous fungi. Nevertheless, this method of identification can be difficult because structures among fungal species are similar and can easily lead to confusion. For more precise taxonomic identification of nematophagous fungi, comparisons of 28S rDNA, 5.8S rDNA, and \u03b2-tubulin gene sequences can be performed [8]. These molecular techniques can be used to identify target strains rapidly and accurately. Additionally, phylogenetic relationships among strains can be compared. Genotyping of nematophagous fungi is considered a valuable and accurate molecular tool for selection of fungi suitable for biotechnological purposes for the livestock and agricultural industries worldwide.\nThe state of Morelos in Mexico is rich in microflora and microfauna, though there is currently only limited information on nematophagous fungi at this location. This study, therefore, aimed to analyze the nucleotide sequences of the ITS regions of nematophagous fungi from Morelos, Mexico, for phylogenetic analysis and also to evaluate the biological activity of isolates against infective larvae of the sheep nematophagous nematode Haemonchus contortus.\n2.1. Area of Study for Fungal Isolation\nSoil sampling for fungal isolation was carried out at Northern Cuernavaca City in the state of Morelos, Southern Mexico City (Figure 1). Morelos possesses significant environmental diversity characterized by a rich variety of vegetation, including conifer and Quercus woodlands. Cuernavaca forms part of the Anahuac valleys and mountains, particularly the Chichinautzin mountain range slope. The northern part of Cuernavaca possesses a subhumid temperate climate with summer rains and high humidity and contains mesophilic woodlands of pine and oak trees. The yearly average temperature is 21.1\u00b0C, with yearly average precipitation between 800 and 1,500\u2009mm. The highest temperatures (24\u201328\u00b0C) occur in April and May. The lowest monthly temperature average (below 15\u00b0C) occurs in December and January [9]. The soil is humic andosol and ocrico andosol derived from volcano ash that is adequate for forestry use (INAFED) [10, 11]. Such climate conditions promote the development of a wide diversity of floral and faunal species [11]. The high moisture and temperature as well as the soil characteristics that predominate in this woodland area are expected to trigger the proliferation of an important diversity of microorganisms with potential biotechnological uses. Nevertheless, there is no current information on the presence of microorganisms with potential biotechnological uses in this geographic region of Mexico.\nFigure 1: Map of the Mexican Republic: (a) the State of Morelos, (b) Cuernavaca City.\nMost samples were collected from the base of different tree species from the Santa Mar\u00eda Ahuacatitl\u00e1n Area. The geographic area was divided into two subareas: Zone 1 was characterized by a mixed woodland with oak trees, holm oak trees, and several types of pine trees, while Zone 2 was a woodland area consisting mainly of pine trees (Figure 2; Table 1).\nTable 1: Sites and source of material collection for fungal isolation from Morelos, Mexico.\nFigure 2: Map of Cuernavaca City. Triangles showing the area of sampling sites. Photos showing a view of woodlands predominant at Santa Mar\u00eda Ahuacactitl\u00e1n area, Cuernavaca, Morelos State, Mexico\n2.2. Fungal Isolation\nSamples (5\u2009g) of soil, dry leaves, or compost were collected from every sampling site and transported to the lab. A previously described method of sprinkling soil on 2% agar plates for fungal isolation [12] was used. Each sample was sprinkled on the surface of 9\u2009cm diameter water agar plates and incubated at room temperature (18\u201325\u00b0C) and 60% humidity. After 2 days, an undetermined number of mixed stages of free-living nematodes (Panagrellus redivivus) were added to the agar surface of each plate to promote nematophagous fungal development. Every day after the third day, the incubation plate surface was viewed under a stereomicroscope to search for the presence of either nematophagous fungal aerial structures or trapped nematodes. Conidia or conidiophores were transferred with a fine, sterile needle to sterile water agar plates to isolate the observed fungi. This process was repeated as often as necessary until fungal isolates remained as pure culture. Once pure fungal cultures were obtained on water agar plates, fungi were transferred to potato dextrose agar plates and incubated for 20 days at room temperature (18\u201325\u00b0C). After this period, abundant mycelia were produced on the agar surface. Mycelia were recovered from plates by scrapping the agar surface with a sterile spatula. The fungal material was eventually transferred into 1.5\u2009mL microcentrifuge tubes and maintained at \u221220\u00b0C until use.\n2.3. Fungal Identification through Traditional Taxonomy (Morphometric System)\nBoth the shapes and sizes of different fungal structures (conidia, conidiophores, trapping devices (traps), hyphae, and mycelia) were observed under a microscope. These structures were photographed (at 40x, 75x, and 100x magnification) using a Leica Comax\u00ae CRC-3141 colour camera CCD integrated with a microscope. Taxonomic identification of fungal genera and species was achieved following the identification keys published by Cooke and Godfrey [2], de Hoog [6], and Rubner [7].\n2.4. Molecular Identification\nDNA extraction was achieved following the methodology established for entomopathogenic fungi DNA extraction described by Tigano-Milani et al., 1995 [13]. The DNA amplification was achieved using PCR technique with the following primers: ITS5 (GGA AGT AAA AGT CGT AAC AAG G) and ITS4 (TCC TCC GCT TAT TGA TAT GC). These primers were used to amplify regions ITS1, 5.8S, and ITS2, as well as 18S and 28S regions [14]. Amplicons of each fungal strain were obtained using the following mix reaction: DNA 5\u2009\u03bcL (100\u2009ng/\u03bcL), primers 2\u2009\u03bcL each (100\u2009ng/\u03bcL), MgCl2 2\u2009\u03bcL (2\u2009mM), dNTP mix 1\u2009\u03bcL (10\u2009mM), buffer 5x 5\u2009\u03bcL, and DNA Taq Polymerase 1\u2009\u03bcL (1\u2009U) to obtain 25\u2009\u03bcL final volume. PCR conditions were an initial denaturation stage of 94\u00b0C for 10\u2009min, a second stage of 35 cycles of denaturation at 94\u00b0C for 60\u2009sec, annealing at 60\u00b0C for 50 seconds and extension at 72\u00b0C for 90\u2009sec, and a final extension stage at 72\u00b0C for 10\u2009min. PCR products were visualized by agarose gel electrophoresis. TAE 1x was used as a running buffer. The PCR products were purified using the Gel and PCR Clean-Up system kit (PROMEGA). The purified PCR products were quantified and individual sequencing reactions were prepared, using 100\u2009ng to 120\u2009ng by reaction. Sequencing was performed at the Institute of Biotechnology, UNAM, using an Applied Biosystems Sequencer (7700). Sequence homology analysis was done using the Basic Local Alignment Search Tool (BLAST) [15]. Identity percentages and mismatches count were obtained to confirm the traditional identification based on the morphology of fungal strains. A multiple aligning analysis was performed and analyzed separately to determine the similarity percentages between the selected fungal strains using ITS2 sequence. A total of 36 fungal sequences with different similarity levels were recovered from GenBank. ITS1, ITS2, and 5.8S segments were identified and ITS2 aligning was performed using the CLC Sequence Viewer software [16]. The gap cost and the extension cost were assigned as 10 and 1, respectively. A phenogram was generated using the UPGMA algorithm with the Jukes-Cantor nucleotide distance measure and bootstrap analysis was done with 100 replicates. Additionally, a comparative matrix of transversions, transitions and inversions, was performed in order to compare the selected strains.\n2.5. Nematodes\n2.5.1. Panagrellus redivivus Free-Living Nematodes\nA P. redivivus strain belonging to the CENID-Parasitolog\u00eda Veterinaria, INIFAP was used. Nematodes were produced in mass using a medium containing oat flakes and water [17]. Finally, the nematode suspension was transferred using the Baermann funnel technique to obtain a clean nematode suspension [12].\n2.5.2. Haemonchus contortus (L3) Infective Larvae\nA Mexican strain of the sheep parasitic nematode Haemonchus contortus from the INIFAP germplasm collection was used. A Pelibuey hair sheep was orally infected with the parasite to act as an \u201cegg donor.\u201d After a 28-day prepatent period, nematode eggs were detected in the sheep\u2019s faeces through the McMaster technique [18]. Sheep faeces were directly collected from the rectum of the animal. Faecal material was processed to elaborate faecal cultures [19]. These cultures were incubated for 7 days at room temperature (17\u201328\u00b0C). Each day, they were mixed with a wooden spoon and hydrated with tap water to promote maximum egg hatching and larva production. Larvae were extracted from faecal cultures using the Baermann funnel technique (for 24\u2009h) to eventually obtain a clean nematode suspension [12]. Residues and detritus were separated and removed from the larval suspension using the sucrose density gradient technique [20]. The larval suspension was washed three times using sterile water to remove sucrose residues. Finally, larvae were resuspended in sterile distilled water and kept at 4\u00b0C until use.\n2.6. Fungal Predatory Activity Assessment\nEvery fungal strain was cultured in 5\u2009cm Petri dishes containing 2% water agar ( = 10). After 7 days\u2019 incubation at room temperature (25\u201328\u00b0C), approximately five hundred H. contortus infective larvae (L3) were added to the surface of each fungal plate. Additionally, a set of water agar plates ( = 10) without any fungi was used as a control and treated as described above. Later, the agar plate surface was viewed under a microscope (10x and 40x) to visualize the predatory activity of fungi. The total number of larvae contained in each plate of each group was recovered through the Baermann funnel technique to assess fungal predatory activity.\nThe average number of recovered larvae was obtained and compared for both groups to estimate the percentage reduction in larvae due to the predatory action of the nematophagous fungi using the following formula [21]:where is reduction percentage, is average of recovered larvae from plates with fungi, and is average of recovered larvae from plates without fungi.\nData were analyzed using proofs of normality. A Kruskal-Wallis analysis with a completely random design was used [22]. The average number of recovered larvae from each of the two groups was considered as the variable/response. A multiple average comparison analysis was also performed using SAS [23]. An \u03b1 value = 0.01 was used.\n2.8. Database Submission\nThe nucleotide sequences derived from the nematophagous fungi reported in this work were submitted to GenBank (accession numbers KC663623, KC663625, KC663626, KC663624, and KC663627).\n3.1. Traditional Taxonomy\nMorphological and morphometric taxonomic features of different fungal structures are shown in Table 2. Eighteen fungal isolates were obtained in total from the different geographic areas and from different substrates. Fungi were identified as belonging to three genera and six species of nematophagous fungi. Most of the fungal isolates corresponded to the species M. eudermatum (8 isolates); four isolates were identified as A. oligospora, two as A. musiformis, and one as A. kirghizica. Two isolates were determined as Trichothesium globosporum var. globosporum and one isolate as T. g. var. roseum (Table 2). Different morphological features of the nematophagous fungi are shown in Table 3.\nTable 2: Morphological and morphometric features of the different genera and species of nematophagous fungi isolated from soil samples from Northern Cuernavaca City, Morelos, Mexico.\nTable 3: Microphotographs showing the aspect of different nematophagous fungi structures (conidia, conidiophore, and trapping devices) isolated from Morelos, Mexico. Scale bars = 20\u2009\u00b5m.\n3.2. In Vitro Predatory Activity of Nematophagous Fungi\nResults of the assessment of the in vitro predatory activity of the nematophagous fungi against H. contortus infective larvae are shown in Table 4. The larval reduction percentages recorded for the different isolates ranged between 32.4 and 96.7%. The lowest predation percentages were observed for M. eudermatum (isolate Z-2.4) at 32.4% and A. kirghizica (Z-2.9) at 36.4%. Species T. globosporum (Z-2.3, Z-2.11), A. oligospora (Z-2.6), A. musiformis (Z-2.5), and M. eudermatum (Z-2.1) showed moderate predation activities (59.1, 46.9, 56.2, 62.2, and 67.6%, resp.). The highest predatory activities were observed with T. globosporum var. roseum (Z-3.4) at 71.2%, M. eudermatum (Z-3.6) at 74.3%, M. eudermatum (Z-3.1) at 78.4%, M. eudermatum (Z-3.8) at 85.4%, M. eudermatum (Z-3.3) at 91.53%, A. oligospora (Z-2.8) at 93.07%, A. oligospora (Z-2.10) at 94.6%, M. eudermatum (Z-2.7) at 95.9%, and A. oligospora (Z-2.2) at 96.7%.\nTable 4: Mean number Haemonchus contortus infective larvae and reduction percentages recovered after 7 days\u2019 in vitro interaction with different nematophagous fungi isolates and reduction percentages.\n3.3.1. Homology Analysis\nThe five isolates of nematophagous fungi that showed the highest in vitro predatory capability from among the 18 isolates, identified by traditional taxonomy as A. oligospora (Z-2.2, Z-2.8, and Z-2.10) M. eudermatum (Z-2.7, Z-3.3), were subject to molecular identification. PCR amplified fragments for Z-2.7 and Z-3.3 isolates were of \u2248600\u2009bp length; fragments for Z-2.2, Z-2.8, and Z-2.10 isolates were observed near to 700\u2009bp length. The sequences derived from these PCR products were subject to a homology analysis, and percent identities of 98-99% obtained when the 18S partial gene, ITS1 region, ribosomal 5.8S gene, ITS2 region, and ribosomal 28S partial gene were compared. The morphometric taxonomic identification of the five selected nematophagous fungi was confirmed by the data from the molecular analysis (Table 5).\nTable 5: Identity percentages with the best hit of sequences containing 18S, ITS1, 5.8S, and ITS2 regions of five nematophagous fungi isolated in Morelos, Mexico, when they are used to do a homology search with BLASTn database. Accession numbers are given in brackets.\n3.3.2. Transitions, Transversions and Insertions\nTransitions occur more frequently than transversions; therefore, transitions and transversions were counted, as well as insertions, as a measure of evolutionary distance. The number of transitions between Z-2.2, Z-2.8 and Z-2.10, all classified as A. oligospora, varied from 3 to 5, versus 11 to 16 between this group and Z-2.7 and Z-3.3, classified as M. eudermatum. Only one transversion was identified between Z-2.2, Z-2.8, and Z-2.10, versus 15 to 18 between this group and Z-2.7 and Z-3.3. Three insertions were identified between Z-2.2, Z-2.8, and Z-2.10, versus 18 to 19 between this group and Z-2.7 and Z-3.3. No differences in these three features were detected between Z-2.8 and Z-2.10 and between Z-2.7 and Z-3.3. The lack of differences in this region, which is not subject to selection pressure, suggests that these isolates are the same species or strains (A. oligospora and M. eudermatum, resp.). The correlation between molecular and traditional taxonomy is evident when the frequencies of transitions, transversions, and insertions are compared (Table 6).\nTable 6: DNA modifications identified in the ITS2 regions of the nematophagous fungal isolates.\n3.3.3. ITS2 Sequence Analysis\nA phenogram was generated using the ITS2 region that included the five selected nematophagous fungi isolates and homologous sequences with different similarity level (Figure 3). It shows a clear separation between the Arthrobotrys and Monacrosporium genera. The isolates Z-3.3 and Z-2.7 are located in the group of Monacrosporium (blue in Figure 3), and the isolates Z-2.10, Z-2.8, and Z-2.2 are located within the Arthrobotrys group, which is in agreement with the morphological classification. Some organisms classified as Arthrobotrys are grouped with Monacrosporium, such as those associated with the accession numbers AY773459, EU3311088, and AY773451, among others; this observation suggests that these organisms could belong to the Monacrosporium genus. Inside of the Arthrobotrys group, two main branches are evident, the inferior branch includes the isolates Z-2.10, Z-2.8, and Z-2.2 reported in this work, which share the closest homology with sequences with accession numbers HQ649929 and AY773462, and the organism associated with the last sequence is classified as A. oligospora. Two other sequences also associated with A. oligospora (accession numbers GU799560 and HQ730901) are grouped separately. Similarly, not all the sequences associated with M. eudermatum are grouped together. These observations could indicate that there is a greater diversity than expected after morphological identification.\nFigure 3: Phenogram generated using the ITS2 region that includes five selected nematophagous fungi isolates and homologous sequences with different similarity level.\nNematophagous fungi are considered important tools for the control of parasitic diseases in both the agricultural and livestock industries worldwide. The present research shows evidence about the rich mycobiota of nematophagous fungi in soil from the studied area at Morelos, Mexico. The obtained fungal isolates show significant potential for use against Haemonchus contortus, which is one of the most pathogenic parasitic nematodes of ruminants around the world. The fungal species most commonly found was M. eudermatum. Some species of the Monacrosporium genus have been considered potential agents for control of animal parasitic diseases [24\u201326]. Another species we identified was A. oligospora which is the most intensively studied nematophagous species worldwide and a number of important research works are published every year about its use against parasitic nematodes of either plants [27, 28] or animals [29, 30]. A drastic structural change in the nematode cuticle when exposed to A. oligospora has been attributed to proteolytic enzyme activity produced by this species [31]. In addition, secondary metabolites with antibacterial activity produced by A. oligospora are currently being identified [14], giving this species additional biotechnological value. Knowledge of metabolic and chemical aspects of nematophagous fungi has led to important advances, and vanguard proposals on the genomics and proteomics of A. oligospora are currently being generated [32].\nAnother fungal species we identified was T. globosporum. In an extensive search on this species, only limited information could be found. Filtrates of different nematophagous fungi, including T. globosporum, were assessed to identify a possible hatching inhibition effect against the eggs of Meloidogyne incognita. More than 77% of M. incognita eggs were inhibited from hatching by the T. globosporum filtrate [20]. In the case of A. musiformis, several studies have been performed with this species and other genera/species. High capture and destruction efficiency against phytonematodes has been recorded, particularly against the causal agent of root gall, the nematode M. incognita, in tomato plants [33]. Similarly, this species has been assessed with other fungal species, and a high predatory activity (>97%) against H. contortus has been recently recorded [34]. In general, the predatory activity of the nematophagous fungi obtained in the present study was variable. Some A. oligospora isolates (Z-2.2 and Z-2.10), as well as M. eudermatum (Z-2.7) isolates, had high predatory activity (>94%). Variable results have been reported with different A. oligospora isolates by other researchers. For example, a 93.3% rate of in vitro predatory activity was found against H. contortus infective larvae for another A. oligospora isolate [34]; however, very low predation values (37%) were obtained against the same parasitic nematode with another A. oligospora isolate [35]. In contrast, there is little information about the predatory activity of M. eudermatum, especially against ruminant parasitic nematodes.\nIn an in vitro trial, M. eudermatum, A. oligospora, and A. robusta conidia were mixed with sheep faeces containing H. contortus eggs; 95.7%, 98.3%, and 10.1% larval reduction was recorded after 15 days\u2019 interaction [29]. Other nematophagous fungal species belonging to the Monacrosporium genus have been evaluated against sheep parasitic nematodes. The in vitro predatory activity of M. gephyropagum and A. robusta against Strongyloides papillosus resulted in 93.1% and 32.3% larval reductions, respectively [26]. Regarding the activity of A. musiformis, the results of our present research indicate a moderate in vitro larval reduction efficiency (62.1%). In another work, this species showed a low predatory activity (40%) against the same parasite/stage [35]. In contrast, this species has been previously reported to have high predatory activity (97%) against the same parasite/stage [34]. On the other hand, A. kirghizica showed a low in vitro predatory activity (36.4%) against the assessed nematode in the present study. This result is similar (35%) to the one obtained in another study with the same species [35]. The predatory activity of A. kirghizica species has been evaluated as a biological control agent against agricultural nematode pests. This species was assessed with other genera/species of nematophagous fungi, that is, Trichothecium pravicoli and A. doliformis under field conditions. The three fungi showed high predatory activity against cucumber parasitic nematodes and root-gall nematodes were substantially reduced (90%) [33].\nThe present research shows a large variability in predatory capability not only among nematophagous fungal species but also among different isolates from the same genera/species. Such a phenomenon could be due to nematophagous fungi possessing a natural \u201cdual\u201d feeding habit in which fungi can develop in two ways: either by feeding on vegetation residues where they obtain their Nitrogen source (N2) from both plants and detritus in soil [12] or by obtaining their nutritional requirements from live nematodes. In the latter case, they become predator fungi [2]. The biological environments of nematophagous fungal isolates could differ in many respects, particularly the presence or absence of nematodes and the nematode population size. Such facts could determine the predatory or saprophytic behaviour of nematophagous fungi. Likewise, the five nematophagous fungi that were selected based on their high in vitro predatory activity (A. oligospora, isolates Z-2.2, Z-2.8, and Z-2.10 and M. eudermatum isolates Z-2.7 and Z-3.3) were sequenced and showed 100% identity to A. oligospora and M. eudermatum sequences from the GenBank-NCBI database. Phylogenetic and comparative analyses showed that the Z-2.10 and Z-2.8 isolates are virtually identical; aside from one transition and one insertion in the ITS1 region, no other change was found in either of the other two analyzed regions. However, these two sequences differ from the Z-2.2 isolate that came from the same site. It is important to highlight such differences because the three isolates are apparently identical from the morphological point of view and in agreement with the consulted taxonomic identification keys [2, 6, 7]. One possible explanation for the fact that some species of fungi are morphologically identical but show some molecular differences is that variants such as subspecies or varieties of fungi are under evolutionary processes influenced by environmental factors. The phylogram shows that two other sequences obtained from GenBank (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/genbank/) coincide with the isolates selected in the present study. The A. oligospora Spanish strain (accession number HQ649929.1) is identical to the Mexican isolates (Z-2.10 and Z-2.8) from the present study; however, the Chinese strain (accession number AY773462.1) shows differences that confirm the presence of genetic diversity. A comparison of morphological features between these two isolates could be interesting to confirm the morphological variability. When conidia and conidiophores from Z-2.10 and Z-2.2 were compared under the microscope variability in length and width was observed, being Z-2.2 conidia wider and longer than Z-2.10, which confirm the morphological variation between the same fungal species. A more detailed molecular analysis must be carried out to achieve a more accurate classification of isolates from different parts of the world. The two M. eudermatum isolates were classified in a different group and were separated from other reported sequences for the same species (accession numbers AF106530 and AF106528) isolated from Germany. Similar to A. oligospora, there are differences in the DNA sequences that allow a more accurate classification of fungi. The results suggest that the current classification system (based on morphological characteristics) could mask a greater diversity among isolates belonging to the Arthrobotrys and Monacrosporium genera. Additionally, the assignation of isolates from different parts of the world to various species based only on morphological characteristics could produce inaccurate results. Similar studies on fungal predatory activity against ectoparasites including Beauveria, Verticillium, Paecilomyces, Tolypocladium, and Metarhizium suggest that there is intrageneric variation that has been associated with biological processes due to mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) polymorphisms [36]. The polymorphism that we identified in Arthrobotrys and Monacrosporium in the present study could be attributed to differences in biological functions, unspecific mutations, evolutionary processes, predatory behaviour, and so forth. An example of such variability can be observed in the differences in trapping devices developed by the different nematophagous fungal strains [32, 37]. During the evolution of A. musiformis, a point mutation in the \u03b2-tubulin gene produces an altered tubulin protein, whose major function is determining fungal cell structure. This mutation in A. musiformis affects fungal viability when exposed to anthelmintic compounds [37] and this mutation has been associated with A. musiformis polymorphism. In contrast, this mutation has not been found in other species of the genus Arthrobotrys. This fact suggests that diversity is present in the genus.\nThe present study identified a number of fungal isolates from Morelos, Mexico, with potential as biological control candidates for the livestock industry. The precise identification of nematophagous fungal isolates using traditional taxonomic methods complemented with molecular tools and characterization of biological activity against livestock parasites and ability to adapt to diverse laboratory conditions are vital features that must be considered in identifying elite strains to be used as potential candidates for the control of parasites in livestock.\nThe present paper is dedicated to the memory of Dr. Enrique Li\u00e9bano Hern\u00e1ndez, who collaborated in the present research.\nR.

On March 12, 2013, the European Commission requested permission from the Member States to open negotiations with the US for a TTIP and released an impact statement on the future of EU-US trade relations and a study on the potential effect of an EU-US TTIP.\nAccording to the European Commission, the trade picture between the EU and US looks as follows:\nTotal US investment in the EU is three times higher than in all of Asia;\nEU investments in the US are about eight times the amount of EU investment in both India and China;\nEU and US investments are the real driver of the transatlantic relationship, contributing to growth and jobs on both sides of the Atlantic, and about one-third of the transatlantic trade consists of intra-company transfers;\nThe transatlantic relationship defines the shape of the global economy as a whole \u2013 the EU or the US is the largest trade and investment partner for all other countries globally; and\nThe EU and the US economies account for about one-half of the world\u2019s entire GDP and nearly one-third of world trade flows.\nAverage tariffs are reasonably low (below three per cent), the key however to unlocking the potential of any TTIP is tackling non-tariff barriers arising from diverging regulatory systems, mainly consisting of customs procedures and behind border regulatory restrictions, and non-tariff measures such as aspects of security or consumer protection.\nFiled Under: Featured, International Legal News, News & Events",

        "title": "Can You Be Held Personally Liable for Your Parent's Long-Term Care in Virginia? | Hook Law Center",
        "raw_content": "Can You Be Held Personally Liable for Your Parent\u2019s Long-Term Care in Virginia?\nIn 2017, the average cost of nursing home care in Virginia amounts to $94,896 per year, $7,908 per month, for a private room.[1] That cost is steep enough to concern even the most affluent of clients. While children often feel morally responsible to step in and help out an aging parent financially, what if they do not? What if they cannot? Can they be held legally responsible? The answer may surprise you.\nAs many as twenty-nine (29) states have filial responsibility laws on the books.[2] Filial responsibility laws are statutes which require an able child to provide financial support for an indigent parent. Any legal obligation of an adult child to support his or her parent is not founded in common law; such an obligation can only be created by statute.[3] While many states have never enforced their filial statutes,[4] such statutory obligations do exist, and the policies behind them are deeply rooted in history and tradition.[5] The theory and policy behind filial responsibility is one of reciprocity. When the government began providing public benefits through social security, Medicare, and Medicaid, this greatly reduced the need to enforce filial responsibility laws.[6] Some commentators, however, opine that the enforcement of such obligations will resurge due to the predicted deficits in the public benefit programs.[7]\nVirginia Code Section 20-88 was enacted in 1920. It imposes an obligation on persons eighteen years of age or older, to provide for the support and maintenance[8] of his or her mother or father, if: (1) after reasonably providing for his own immediate family, the child is of sufficient earning capacity or income, and (2) the parent is then and there in destitute or necessitous circumstances.[9] The Virginia Supreme Court interpreted this to be a subjective standard and found that the parent\u2019s standard of living to which they are accustomed is taken into account.[10]\nThe juvenile and domestic relations district courts have exclusive jurisdiction in all cases arising under Virginia Code Section 20-88. Because the juvenile and domestic relations district courts are not courts of record, the total number and frequency of cases involving Code Section 20-88 remain unknown, but the statute has been enforced. For example, this statute was enforced in a 2015 case filed in Virginia Beach Juvenile and Domestic Relations District Court, where a Judge ordered eight children to pay for the assisted living expenses of their biological mother in the amount of $5,500 a month. This award, according to counsel for the petitioner of that case, amounted to as much as $71,500. The order was appealed to Virginia Beach Circuit Court, but the case settled before trial. [11]\nWhile the Virginia Supreme Court has never considered a case regarding filial responsibility and long-term care, this statute undoubtedly extends to support for the cost of long-term care. Fortunately, there are a number of defenses a child might use to protect himself or herself from a filial responsibility action, but the details of those defenses are beyond the scope of this newsletter. Should you find yourself facing an action by a third-party to be held liable for your indigent parent, it is imperative that you hire an attorney with experience in elder law and long-term care planning.\n[1] See Genworth 2017 Cost of Care Survey (last visited Oct. 30 2017), https://www.genworth.com/services/servlets/pdf/CostofCare_2017\n[2] Jared M.

Are they out and about or do they hibernate?\nKit Kat: Well, they are out and about for sure; however, the interesting thing is that their skull and brain mass shrink by about 18 % during the winter. Shrews are about the size of a mouse, but are really more like a mole. Also, they are found in almost all parts of the world. Scientists speculate that their brains become shrunken to conserve energy. According to Javier Lazaro of the Max Planck Institute for Ornithology in Germany, \u201cThey also have high metabolic rates and very little fat stored in their bodies. Therefore, they starve within a few hours if they do not hunt constantly.\u201d Therefore, a smaller skull and brain, as well as some of their major organs and their spines also shrivel in size as well. A smaller corpus means less food is needed to sustain it during the cold months.\nTo conduct the study, the researchers captured 12 shrews in Germany near the Max Planck Institute from summer 2014 to fall 2015. All were micro-chipped, and measured at three different intervals. The skull-shrinking phenomenon was noticed in all twelve. What the scientists think happens is this\u2014their \u201cbrain case shrinks when the joints between the bones of the skull reabsorb tissue during autumn and winter. As spring approaches, the bone tissue regenerates.\u201d Scientists are not sure why other invertebrates can\u2019t do the same, but the phenomenon may have implications for humans, especially those who are afflicted with osteoporosis, and other bone and joint diseases. Medical researchers are very intrigued by this new information. Stay tuned as scientists continue to study this issue.

        "title": "FERA PLANT PEST FACTSHEET: Wheat Bug (Nysius huttoni) | Horticulture Week",
        "raw_content": "20 April 2010, by S. Reid and D. Eyre\nAdult Nysius huttoni collected by Nigel Cuming - Image: James Turner - National Museum Wales\nWhile surveying North Warren RSPB Reserve, Suffolk, in September 2007, Heteroptera recorder Nigel Cuming found large numbers of an unfamiliar species of ground bug. Heteroptera experts Bernard Nau and Bill Dolling confirmed the identity of the bug as Nysius huttoni White (Heteroptera: Lygaeidae).\nCommonly known as the Wheat Bug, this New Zealand endemic is a polyphagous pest of large number of weeds and crops. Currently on the EPPO Alert List, N. huttoni is established in parts of Northern Europe. This was the first discovery of this pest in the UK.\nNysius huttoni is endemic to New Zealand where it is widespread and has a wide ecological distribution from coastal locations to altitudes of over 1800 m. In 2002, N. huttoni was found at different localities in the extreme south-west of the\nNetherlands (province of Zeeland) and the adjacent north-western part of Belgium (provinces of West-and Oost Vlaanderen and Brabant). The initial observations were close to Antwerp harbour, so accidental arrival on shipments from New Zealand was suggested.\nIn the autumn 2005 edition of Het News, Dutch heteropterist Berend Aukema suggested that this pest might reach UK shores. Since his first east Suffolk find in 2007, Nigel Cuming has surveyed further sites along the coast in consecutive\nyears and discovered large numbers of adults and nymphs.\nIn July 2009 it was found at a gravel pit in Essex by Jerry Bowdrey, Colchester Museum\u2019s Natural History curator. He noted that he hadn\u2019t previously recorded the insect during his many previous surveys of the site in the past 10 years so believes it to be a very recent arrival.\nN. huttoni feeds on a large number of weeds and crops. In New Zealand it is reported as feeding on and damaging Linum usitatissimum(linen flax), Fragariaspp. (strawberry), Medicago sativa(lucerne or alfalfa), Trifolium dubium, T. pratense, T. repens(clovers), Nasella trichotoma(nassella tussock grass), Brassica napus(rape), Betaspp. (beets), Triticum aestivum(wheat), and other wild and cultivated crucifers. It attacks Poaceae such as Avena sativa(oat), Bromusspp., Hordeum sativum (barley), Loliumspp., and Secale cereale(rye).\nIt has also been reported feeding on the following weeds: Anagallis arvensis, Calandrinia caulescens, Capsella bursa-pastoris, Cassinia leptophyla, Chenopodium album, Coronopus didymus, Hieracium, Polygonum aviculare, Rumex acetosella, Senecio inaequidens, Silene gallica, Soliva sessilis, Spergularia rubra, and Stellariamedia. In the UK, N. huttoni is reported to favour habitats of sandy soil sparsely vegetated with sheep\u2019s sorrel, Rumex acetosella.\nIn July 2009 there was a finding of the pest in a field of barley, though it was not observed feeding on the plants.\nThe eggs are creamy white when first laid but turn orange before hatching.\nThere are five wingless nymphal instars. The first instar is approximately 0.5 mm long and pale to dark orange; later instars are grey or brown-grey and up to 2.5 mm long. The adults, which are 2.5-4 mm long are usually pale green when they emerge but quickly darken to brownish grey.\nThe adults have a variegated outline with a conspicuous silvery triangle at the posterior end. The bug is distinguished from the six species of Nysius native to Britain by its conspicuous pubescence (hairiness). It has long erect hairs covering the pronotum, scutellum, clavus and corium and a distinctive double row of punctures along the claval suture.\nThe bug is variable in form with three states of wing-development; during a survey in Belgium only 19.1% of the collected adults were macropterous (large winged) thus capable of flight.\nIn New Zealand mating takes place from early spring to late summer and up to 174 eggs can be laid, typically in cracks in the soil. Eggs hatch approximately 10 days after egg laying, and adults form 50- 65 days after hatching. Adults overwinter in decaying vegetable debris around the base of plants. In New Zealand, 2-4 generations per year have been recorded.\nN. huttoni thrives best under hot, dry conditions and prefers sunny spots. The main feeding period is the middle of the day, and the bugs conceal themselves under debris on the ground as soon as the temperature drops in the evening, rain also inhibits activity.\nNigel Cuming observed that the UK populations are very susceptible to changing weather conditions and he tended to see more on warm, sunny days, often as many as 80 to 100 individuals.\nIn New Zealand, Nysius huttoni usually feeds on weeds growing on waste lands or roadsides, however in hot dry years, the pest can migrate to, and damage crops, notably wheat and Brassica spp.. Nysius huttoni has not been known to cause crop damage in the UK to date; however, it is possible that it may cause damage in the future. The damage is only likely to occur in hot dry summers and is therefore more likely to occur in the drier parts of the UK.\nDamage to a small proportion (1%) of wheat grains can make the whole crop unsuitable for baking.\nThe insect\u2019s sucking mouthparts pierce the developing grain wheat grain in the milk-ripe stage. Saliva is injected into the grain through one stylet and nutrients sucked out through the other. An enzyme within the saliva can affect the flour protein when the grain is milled. This enzyme rapidly breaks down the dough structure, producing runny, sticky dough making it unsuitable for baking.\nThe worst recorded outbreak in New Zealand was in 1970, when approximately 10,000 tons of wheat were damaged by\nN. huttoni.\nNysius huttoni can cause significant damage to Brassica spp. seedlings. Cruciferous crops attacked by N. huttoni are known to develop cankerous growths on the stems, causing leaves to wither and die and stems to collapse.\nStatutory action is not being taken against this pest because it would not be feasible to try and eradicate it nor prevent further introductions from Europe or New Zealand. It is a notoriously difficult pest to control, because the pest can re-invade treated crops from weeds in the areas around the crop.\nProducts containing chlorpyrifos have been used to control Nysius huttoni in New Zealand, however other insecticides may also be effective.\nPesticide approvals are constantly changing, therefore the status of pesticide approval should be checked before application, with particular reference to harvest intervals.\nSuspected findings of Nysius huttoni or any other non-native plant pest should be reported to the local Fera Plant Health and Seeds Inspector or to PHSI Headquarters, Sand Hutton, York.\nS.

        "raw_content": "JW Marriott Essex House New York Completes $38 Million Renovation Program\nJW Marriott Essex House New York, the iconic hotel on Central Park South in Manhattan, announced the completion of a $38 million transformation of its 426 guest rooms, 101 suites, and corridors, dramatically redesigned to interpret a new and modern aesthetic.\nJW Marriott Essex House New York, the iconic hotel on Central Park South in Manhattan, announced the completion of a $38 million transformation of its 426 guest rooms, 101 suites, and corridors, dramatically redesigned to interpret a new and modern aesthetic. The hotel's structure and strong lines of its art d\u00e9co heritage have been softened and expressed in a re-defined way. This is a design that celebrates the many decades of the Essex House, with a subtle nod to the 1930s period, when the hotel first opened its doors.\nThe hotel's new design evokes a strong historical rooting but with a fresh twist. A bold but neutral color palette plays to fashion's own rebirth of the period. Carpet patterns are geometric , based on art d\u00e9co but simplified in modern charcoal and cream colors. Furniture finishes are simple and clean in dark oak, white lacquer, polished chrome and bronze. The entire feeling of the new rooms is that of a personal pied-\u00e0-terre. Comfort accents include bedside acrylic lamps with a pop of glamour, along with embroidered pillows that capture the art d\u00e9co motif into a decorative detail \u2013 creating a residential, at-home vibe. All of the hotel's bathrooms have been freshly updated with glossy black vanities and fittings, to complement the guest room design.\n\"For over 80 years, guests have enjoyed the hotel's unique and beautiful architecture, warm luxury and personal service,\" says John Rieman, general manager. \"Our newly designed guest rooms and suites reflect our long history on Central Park South, with a transformation to a fresh modern style.\"\nThe hotel sits prominently on one of the world's most famous streets, with incomparable views of the park's lush greenery, lakes and historic stone bridges. From the central Sheep Meadow and The Lake to the north, all of Central Park unfolds from the park-facing guest room windows. Several suites boast private outdoor furnished terraces, where the view is even more dramatic, capturing the surrounding city from a bird's-eye perspective.\nThe team of award-winning Wimberly Interiors, a design studio of WATG, with offices in New York City and around the world, was responsible for the overall interior design. Their distinctive projects include the JW Marriott Muscat, the St. Regis Dubai, and the Ritz \u2013 Carlton Tamuda Bay.\nThe hotel has 527 luxury rooms and suites, a newly designed Executive Lounge, a\n24-hour Fitness Center, and Southgate, an American restaurant and bar overlooking the park. It features 16 distinctive meeting rooms and executive boardrooms, a Beaux Arts-inspired Grand Salon (3,800 square feet) and an intimate Art D\u00e9co Suite for up to 125 guests.\nFirst opened in 1931 at this prestigious address, JW Marriott Essex House New York is a work of art in itself, with ornate art d\u00e9co gilded doors and rich wood paneling in its public area, and a Beaux Arts Grand Salon that has hosted numerous dignitaries and celebrities over the yearsOn a history note, the hotel originally opened as the Sevilla Towers in 1931 in an area of three blocks of New York City once known as the Spanish Flats. Central Park, forming the hotel's front yard, was already more than 50 years old when the new hotel was built. Marriott International first managed the hotel from 1969-1984. It became the JW Marriott Essex House New York, the first JW Marriott brand hotel in New York City, in September 2012.",

        "raw_content": "Review: Lawrence Wright's Cleo Revives Technicolor Hollywood for the Stage\nThe world premiere production at the Alley dazzles with the backstage drama of Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton.\nRichard Short as Richard Burton, Lisa Birnbaum as Elizabeth Taylor, and Brian Dykstra as Joe Mankiewicz in the Alley Theatre\u2019s World Premiere production Cleo.\nImage: Lynn Lane\nWhen it premiered in 1962, Cleopatra was the most expensive film ever made, and Elizabeth Taylor was the first actress to be paid a cool million for such a role. The film itself is anticlimactic\u2014I don\u2019t remember much aside from Liz wearing fabulous costumes and makeup. Lawrence Wright\u2019s Cleo, a world premiere now on at the Alley, similarly forgets about the film and focuses more on the drama behind it\u2014especially the tumultuous affair between Taylor and co-star Richard Burton.\nAside from the marvelous sets and fascinating conversations\u2014and there are many of them, and they ring true thanks to Wright\u2019s strong writing\u2014Cleo forces the audience to consider the nature of stardom and the pressures of celebrity. There is a lot of humor in this play about an affair that brought a lot of people pain, and one learns about Burton\u2019s rough Welsh upbringing as well as Taylor\u2019s privileged but regulated life as a film star in the studio system. We have no stars now that have the glamour or charisma of either Taylor or Burton, so it\u2019s a moment worth remembering, and The Alley\u2019s production of this era glimmers as brightly as Cleopatra\u2019s golden headdress.\nYet going into the theater, I was wondering how the leading actress would handle Liz Taylor\u2019s distinctive way of speaking. I needn't have worried; Lisa Birnbaum nailed it and excelled with the distinctive mannerisms as well. It\u2019s hard to play someone as iconic and striking as Taylor, and I was pleasantly surprised by how convincing Birnbaum\u2019s performance turned out to be.\nRichard Short also mesmerized as Richard Burton, with the chemistry between the two almost palpable. It\u2019s easy to see how the two actors, fueled by fame and alcohol, were part of the perfect storm of transgressions that led to both divorcing their spouses and marrying each other\u2014twice. Such is the realm of Hollywood legend\u2014when Elizabeth Taylor was the first real international celebrity and individuals' private lives became public knowledge. Taylor\u2019s in-play phone conversation with the Los Angeles Times gossip columnist Hedda Hopper revealed her negotiated relationship with the press as she manages her professional as well as her personal life.\nI will admit how much I enjoyed watching Liz and Dick drink, flirt, make out, fall in love, argue, and even attempt suicide (mirroring, in a sort of cheap way, the drama they are playing out in the film as Anthony and Cleopatra). But, for my money, two other performances upstage all those antics combined. First, Mark Capri is absolutely perfect as a disgruntled Rex Harrison, whose presence in the film is eroded as money runs out and Taylor and Burton become more front-and-center in the movie\u2019s production. Not only does he look like the spitting image of the English actor, I promise by the rain in Spain that he talks exactly like him, too. He has a limited role in this play, but I loved every minute he was on stage.\nStill, the real star of \u201cCleo\u201d is the superlative Adam Gibbs, whose portrayal of singer/actor Eddie Fisher steals the show. He conveys the somewhat shallow and imperfect relationship between Taylor and his character alongside Fisher\u2019s direct and oh-so-American way of speaking and seeing things (a sharp contrast with bad-boy Byronic hero that is Richard Burton).\nAs if that weren't enough, Gibbs has the pipes to deliver the songs that made Fisher so popular and famous\u2014something that might be lost on contemporary audiences that are not familiar with the Eddie Fisher/Debbie Reynolds/Elizabeth Taylor scandal that resulted in him leaving Reynolds for Liz. I was impressed with Gibbs when I first saw him in 4th Wall\u2019s production of \u201cLobby Hero,\u201d and I think he is one of the best actors in Houston. His solos alone are worth seeing this show, and that's to say nothing of how he makes Eddie Fisher as compelling as anyone else on the Egyptian set of Cleopatra\u2014truly a feat without the help of another character's Roman body armor or a lusty sex scene. Plain and simple, it's movie magic without the cameras.\nThru April 26. Tickets from $26. Alley Theatre, 615 Texas Ave. 713-220-5700.

        "title": "Howard Blake English Composer of The Snowman, Lifecycle, Benedictus and many other musical works",
        "raw_content": "You Are Here:-> Home :: Biography :: PRS Interview\nAn interview with Stuart Higgins (for the PRS web magazine, December 2011)\nIt\u2019s that time of the year again, mistletoe in the office, boozy Christmas parties, piped seasonal tunes in the shops and the humming of Walking In the Air from The Snowman, writes Stuart Higgins.\nWith its wonderfully uplifting music and lyrics, Howard Blake\u2019s Walking In the Air raises our spirits, melts our hearts and momentarily transports us to another world devoid of economic doom and gloom. This year marks the 30th anniversary of its demo in a small Charlotte Street film studio.\nBlake says he \u2018heard\u2019 the tune as he walked gloomily across Perranporth beach, Cornwall in 1970 during a reassessment of his life and career. The enduring and mesmerising appeal and success of the music, the words, the film and even the stage show \u2013 now in its record-breaking 14th year at Sadler\u2019s Wells Peacock Theatre in London \u2013 is a matter of enormous personal pride.\n\u2018I am often asked whether I feel The Snowman has typecast me and I have to admit that, of course it has. It\u2019s like a big placard around my neck saying \u201cSnowman\u201d, says Howard, now aged 73, from his artist\u2019s studio home in London\u2019s Kensington Square.\n\u2018I have written so much other music that I am equally proud of, but I suppose it is much better than being recognised for something which I am not proud of. I cannot possibly complain about the success it has brought me.\u2019\nHis vivid recollections of difficult times as a classical music student are a far cry from the global fame he now enjoys. He is forthright and candid in his views and pleased to give advice to budding composers and writers.\n\u2018I am a composer,\u2019 he asserts robustly. \u2018I am not a songwriter. Because the musical world has been so massively hijacked by big business we tend to see the single pop song as the all-important unit. But there is so much more to music than that, and while I have always taken a wide interest in every sort of music whatever its origins, the wonderful possibilities of extended music, of concertos and symphonies and opera and ballet and film and instrumental music in all its myriad forms \u2013 this is what I am interested in and what I both listen to and continually attempt to create.\u2019\nBlake started playing the piano aged six and liked to pick out tunes by ear, having a gift for music from an early age. \u2018I sang in the church choir and took lead parts at school in Gilbert and Sullivan operas. I was also assistant organist at the parish church.\u2019\nHe wrote his first extended piece of music aged 12; a march in D major. \u2018My local piano teacher didn\u2019t believe I\u2019d written it but then he took my under his wing and undertook to teach me harmony and counterpoint. I think I was very fortunate to receive that grounding so young.\u2019\nIn 1957, at 18, he won a scholarship to the Royal Academy of Music as a classical concert pianist, taking serious composition as a second study. In his first term he composed an ambitious tonal piano work called 'Variations on a theme of Bartok', which was very well received by his professors. But the climate of opinion suddenly shifted in that year towards atonal music and this outlook started to actively discourage the writing of melodic music.\nBlake found it difficult to fit in and began to turn towards the idea of writing music for films, which seemed to offer far more freedom of style and expression. His musical head was turned one day when he watched the film The Battleship Potemkin. \u2018I was knocked out by the combination of image and orchestra. It was an overwhelming emotion which made me want to study it as an art form, but no course of such study existed at that time.\u2019\nLeaving college in 1960 not knowing how he might achieve his aims he saw an Evening Standard advert for a projectionist at the National Film Theatre (NFT) and applied for the job. This allowed him not only to make a living but to see and study all the great films and listen to their music. He was also able to make his own film and write the music and this was shown at the NFT while he was still working there.\nAfter two years he needed to move on. He had had great exposure to film and film soundtracks but began to greatly miss playing. \u2018I was 23 years old and I decided that I wanted to play music and if I was going to do that perhaps I should just start at the very bottom. I got a job playing piano at a pub off the Edgeware Road in London called The Lord Chancellor. It was the best thing I ever did, despite someone emptying a pint of beer over my head one night because I couldn\u2019t play the tunes they wanted me to, like Sinatra or the Top Ten. I learnt about audience reaction and participation!\n\u2018In order to play the tunes they wanted I learned ten or so a day and the pub became so popular that the police had to be called one night because the pub was so busy. I met a drummer who knew a nightclub in Bayswater so we played pop in the pub until 11pm and then went to the nightclub to play jazz.\u2019\nOne night he was discovered by an EMI talent scout and whisked off to become staff pianist at the famous Abbey Road studios and work alongside the famous four, Rolling Stones, Cliff Richard and Tom Jones.\n\u2018What happened in the 60s was a phenomenon, you couldn\u2019t go anywhere without hearing The Beatles, into a shop on a bus or anywhere and I had to think seriously about whether I should be writing two and a half minute pop songs because that was the unit of currency and I had a go at it. I wasn\u2019t very good at it! I started to discover that, apart from Bill Evans and Miles Davis, I much preferred Beethoven, Tchaikovsky and Prokofiev \u2013 music that flowed for an hour not a formula with a guitar, bass guitar and set of drums. All music has its place but that wasn\u2019t for me.\u2019\nBut playing piano at Abbey Road led Howard also to play for film and television recordings. He played on the hugely successful 'Avengers' series for Laurie Johnson who one day in 1967 asked if he would take over scoring the whole show. This led to an immensely busy period as both composer and conductor on projects up until 1970.\n\u2018I was staggeringly busy,\u2019 he remembers, \u2018but even though I was now making a lot of money from all of this commercial media work I still hadn\u2019t really found a way of writing the music that I felt was inside me and which I more and more wanted to write. This started to produce serious tensions and I started to become ill. A doctor advised me that I must take time off and I decided that I must in some way re-evaluate my life. I drove off to the farthest point I could think of away from London and rented a tiny beach hut near Perranporth beach in Cornwall. It was here that the embryo of The Snowman showed first signs of birth.\n\u2018I was rethinking and reassessing my career and this tune came into my head and my mind. Its voice was all about innocence and purity and was something different,\u2019 he said. \u2018This was the inspiration for what was to become 'The Snowman' but it took another 11 years to be born', (perhaps the longest gestation period in history for a tune to come to life?)\n\u2018In Autumn 1981 I went to the studios of an animated film company called TVC run by a man called John Coates and he showed me an 'animatic' - an eight minute filmed pencil sketch of 'The Snowman.' John had had a temporary track added but felt it wasn\u2019t right. He asked if I would look at it. It included the boy flying with the snowman and the moment I saw it I said, \u201cYou could make a film without dialogue where the music is the entire script\u201d. John wasn\u2019t sure at all about this so I said I would make a demo, adding that I happened to have a tune that would be perfect.\u2019\n\u2018Several days later I recorded the eight minutes of film on piano, which included the whole of what was to be 'Walking In the Air'. Some sort of synchronicity was happening'. The film was made by Channel Four for Christmas 1982.\nHis income through PRS for Music has risen dramatically through the success of 'The Snowman' and he adds: \u2018It is played and performed in every country and I only really know what is going on when I see the read-outs of royalties from PRS for Music four times a year.\nI also have a huge catalogue of music on top of that with 65 cinema and TV films contributing to a current total of 633 titles and counting. Of course some of the money doesn\u2019t filter through for years and some of it may be for a very small amount \u2013 0.0265p from Patagonia!\u2019\nHoward has a strong recollection of his first ever PRS for Music royalty cheque: \u2018I had this lovely girlfriend in Brighton and she told me, \u201cYou are never going to make any money from music,\u201d and in 1958 I got a cheque for \u00a37 and you can imagine I was thrilled to bits and I wanted to put it in the bank but thought I should treat my sceptical girlfriend to a slap-up dinner. We had the dinner but when I showed her the cheque she laughed and pointed out that it was only for seven shillings not \u00a37 \u2013 I was distraught at the time but I laugh about it now.\u2019\nWe also asked Howard Blake some specific questions:\nWhy do you think The Snowman has become such an institution?\n''I think it\u2019s because it\u2019s neither pop or classical. It\u2019s both. It has its roots in popular culture. The whole idea is about transcending, it\u2019s about love and opening the world of imagination and it appeals to many different people on many different levels. People love to hear the tune because it makes them feel warm. At the stage show they cheer and they cry when the snowman melts. It unlocks something in people which makes them feel better.\u201d\nYou\u2019ve composed music for orchestras, solo works, film scores, how does your approach to each differ?\n''Music is music. Mozart always wrote to commission. I have always worked on the basis that I should write the best thing I possibly can. I am part of the process whatever the genre. It is a kind of bond between the composer and the public. I am driven to write something that I believe will connect to the public''.\n'I am overseeing the production of The Snowman at the Peacock Theatre at Sadler\u2019s Wells in London. It\u2019s the longest-ever-running Christmas show with 14 years and we have just committed to another 10 years. There will be 66 performances in London through December and January, it is due to go to Korea and Finland and we have just done the show at the Lowry Theatre in Salford, Manchester.\nHas the way you work changed since you first started composing music?Are there many opportunities for composers these days?\n'I believe there are lots of opportunities for young composers, more than ever because there are so many production companies and so many different genres, whether it\u2019s TV, radio, film or internet. People sometimes say to me: How can I become famous and successful? The truth is that it\u2019s a long hard haul and you have to come up with something within yourself that you really want to hear, in the hope that others will want to hear it too.",

It\u2019s played to packed audience across the UK, in the Far East and in Scandinavia. It\u2019s just celebrated 20 years of Christmas shows at London\u2019s Peacock Theatre and it\u2019s currently on a tour of the UK and Ireland. But the show, based on the best-selling Raymond Briggs book and the Channel 4 animated film, was seen as a huge gamble when it was first produced in Birmingham in 1993. Composer Howard Blake, who created the score and its famous song, Walking in the Air, would be the first to admit that the team were unsure it would work. Howard had created the soundtrack to the 1982 film and the then artistic director of Birmingham Rep, Bill Alexander contacted him, with the aim of collaborating on a stage version of The Snowman. \u201cThe film was back in 1982 and was a huge success,\u201d recalls Howard, now aged 79. \u201cThen in 1985 Aled Jones released a single of Walking in the Air and it went to number three in the charts \u2013 he was on Top of the Pops. So gradually the story and the song were becoming more and more well known. \u201cIn 1993 a long time had passed since the film came out, 11 years in fact, and the choreographer Robert North said to me that he wanted to do a ballet of it. I extended the music into a 55 minute ballet for Robert. \u201cThen Bill Alexander rang me and said he wanted to do a full length show of The Snowman that Christmas. I said we could use the ballet music and extend it into a longer ballet and Bill initially said \u2018we\u2019re not a ballet company, it\u2019s a stage show\u2019. I said \u2018I don\u2019t think that actually matters\u2019 and so we brought together ballet, acting and stage direction. \u201cIt happened so fast and in such a crazy way we had no idea it would be so successful. I remember Bill talking to me in August and saying \u2018I\u2019m not talking about next year, I\u2019m talking about this year!\u2019 And I said yes to that! I told him \u2018if you give me a flat in the theatre, I will write the rest of the show in the theatre and I\u2019ll be there to rehearse it and get it off the ground\u2019. \u201cBut everybody was terrified that it would be a complete wash-out \u2013 including me. We were adding all these things into the plot, lots of completely new ideas, and were trying all these things out with so little time. I was still working on it the first day of the opening night. We literally just got the orchestration into the pit ready to start. \u201cIt was really touch and go. But two days before it was due to open we looked out of the window and there were people queuing right round the square for The Snowman. And I thought \u2018maybe we\u2019ve done something right here\u2019. Once we got it up we knew it had the making of a hit show. It went on to sell out for 93 performances. It felt like some sort of miracle.\u201d The first version of The Snowman attracted huge audiences but it was four years before the theatre decided to revive it. \u201cNothing happened for a while and then in 1997 Birmingham Rep said they wanted to put it on again,\u201d recalls Howard. \u201cAt this point I asked if I could invite Robert to do the choreography. It\u2019s incredible really that we got a top classical choreographer coming in to do a stage show. He was happy to work with Bill who was a top Shakespearian theatre director and that created a whole new level of magic to the show in 1997. \u201cThat was very successful, so much so that everyone wanted it to come to London but when it came to London it still hadn\u2019t reached its final form. I went to talk to Ian Albery, who was the head of Sadler\u2019s Wells at the time, and he said he thought he was going to take it off because he didn\u2019t think the second act was up to much! \u201cI said \u2018please let me have another go at re-writing the second act\u2019. He let me do that and we did a run of it in the big room at Sadler\u2019s Wells and he said \u2018Howard, you\u2019ve cracked it\u2019. \u201cThen I re-wrote part of it again for 2000 and we added the Jack Frost character and the Ice Princess. That really made the second act not only as good as the first act but it took the story further so that it all became a really great story which really went somewhere.\u201d Looking back on how the creative trio of Howard, Bill and Robert gradually crafted and improved the show, Howard believes it was their combined inspiration which led to the success of The Snowman we have today. \u201cIt\u2019s one of those wonderful things that happened by synchronicity and by all of the right people happening to converge in the right place at the right time. Things like that \u2013 you can\u2019t really make them happen, they just happen.\u201d Since 2000, the production has not been changed \u2013 apart from a small adaptation when The Snowman went to Seoul in South Korea in 2009. \u201cThere is a scene with snowpeople and the idea I always had with the snowpeople and their dance was that if we did it in another country, instead of having a Chinese snowperson we could replace that character with a character local to the country. We did that in Korea and they loved it,\u201d says Howard. \u201cI remember being in that theatre and there was this tiny South Korean girl who danced the new bit we wrote for her and there was huge applause at the end. The stage manager asked me to go on stage with her and then they said \u2018would you dance with her round the stage\u2019 so I danced on the stage of the Opera House in Korea. That was a fantastic night.\u201d For many people, the song Walking in the Air is closely related to Christmas but the music was actually first composed by the seaside and had no link to The Snowman at all. \u201cThe funny thing about it is that I was very busy in the sixties doing things like television and The Avengers and commercials and I actually couldn\u2019t bear my life any more, writing very commercial stuff,\u201d recalls Howard. \u201cI decided I had to get out of London so I got in my car and thought \u2018I will drive the farthest from London that I can go and I\u2019m going to sit on a beach and think about what I\u2019m going to do\u2019. \u201cSo I rented a beach hut in Cornwall and I sat on the beach for two months and I changed my life. I thought \u2018I don\u2019t want to keep writing commercials, I want to write a great symphony\u2019. I was walking along the beach every day and I wanted to write this symphony, something to uplift people, so I wanted it to start with a theme which expresses innocence. Then this tune came into my head. I wrote it down and I thought \u2018this is the beginning of the symphony\u2019. This was in 1970. \u201cI came back to London and moved to Sussex where I was going to write the symphony. I never wrote that symphony but I had this tune and I didn\u2019t know what to do with it. I knew it was a wonderful tune and I thought that someday I would know where to place it. It was complete but I hadn\u2019t written words to it. \u201cThen 11 years later when I walked into the television studio, which was quite by chance, and John Coates showed me this pencil sketch for The Snowman I thought \u2018My God, that tune, this is where it goes\u2019. It\u2019s a magical sort of thing that happened so really the whole Snowman story for me doesn\u2019t start in 1982 \u2013 it goes back to 1970 when I first thought of this song. \u201cWhen Channel 4 agreed to make the film and I\u2019d written the entire score, it was only then at the end that I realised it was crying out for lyrics. So I wrote the lyrics for Walking in the Air and it was recorded and it absolutely made it. \u201cSuch is the power of the song \u2013 people are always talking about it. When I hear it, I have so many memories of the song and the film and the show that it\u2019s very special for me. I don\u2019t know how I did it but I\u2019m glad I did. \u201cYou go into a supermarket and you hear Walking in the Air and you think \u2018Oh, it\u2019s Christmas,\u2019 and that is a rather extraordinary thing. You\u2019ve got a song which spells out Christmas and what more could you wish for?\u201d What\u2019s more The Snowman music, and particularly Walking in the Air, has become part of Christmas worldwide. \u201cThe concert version is going on all over the world,\u201d says Howard. \u201cLast year we had 174 different symphony orchestras performing concert versions of it. Last year Aled Jones did a duet version and this year I\u2019ve just done a new arrangement for Katherine Jenkins for her tour. \u201cAll these things join up to keep the interest going. And then there\u2019s the book and the merchandising so The Snowman is a brand which is known all over the world. I think you could take The Snowman anywhere and it would be recognised \u2013 except maybe the North Pole!\u201d The Snowman is at Mayflower Theatre from Wednesday until Sunday.

FILM PREMIERE EDINBURGH 4th and 5th NOVEMBER Filed under: THE JOHN WILLIAMS FILES. by jonman492000 \u2014 November 11, 2015 5b56af68a1660a9308ab711a79e3c01c To say that Howard Blake has been taking things easy in the last few years, would be a total travesty. He seems busy as ever, with Concertos, Piano Music and various projects which seem to take him all over the Globe, but specifically I would suggest Europe and Far East. His latest CD has him teamed up with cellist Benedict Kloeckner called DIVERSIONS. Up and coming is a ballet he is currently working on, but certainly his work in the media has been noticeably absent in the last few years. That is till now THE LAND OF COUNTERPANE is a song cycle based on Poems by Robert Louis Stevenson (1850 \u2013 1894). For me who grew up in the Fifties minus can you believe Television, his adventures were the stuff of young boy\u2019s fantasies, KIDNAPPED, TREASURE ISLAND and a personal favourite THE BLACK ARROW. But for some reason his collection of poems A CHILD\u2019S GARDEN OF VERSES missed me completely by. The Counterpane in case you were wondering is a patchwork quilt into which each square contained a different story, and the young Robert breathed life into these patchwork squares by in later years writing a collection of poems All this is fertile ground for a composer of Howard Blake\u2019s imagination, for what he has done over a very long period of time is to write music to selected verses and whilst the classic THE SNOWMAN had only one song \u2013 and what a song- this has songs spread through the entire 26 minute film \u2013 This I feel very canny for if sold to a commercial network, time to fit in the dreaded adverts. HB Piano Angle Having since the film only the once, I feel this is very much a review in progress, for as I write this I would really like to see it again, for like a lot of films, sometime you cannot appreciate all that is going on it a single viewing and I personally feel that with repeated showings ,it could come a very worthy successor to THE SNOWMAN , which sadly THE BEAR did not become, though I must admit, to be quite fond of that as well. The animation is very cleverly accomplished for as we see the young Robert in his sick bed it is very much black and white, whereas once we are enveloped into his fantasies, the screen becomes a blaze of colour. Anyone who warmed to THE SNOWMAN will certainly like this, The Choir is from the Pupils of Mary Erskine School in Edinburgh, recorded now and in 2007 at the Usher Hall in Edinburgh. Not a professional choir at all, they still bring a freshness and youthful vigour to the singing which is most commendable and enjoyable. I defy anyone not to enjoy the choral work on offer here To be reading this you must have an interest in film music and those that appreciated Howard\u2019s earlier scores like RIDDLE OF THE SANDS and THE DUELLISTS will find the same degree of understanding of what music in film and animation can inspire to. The narrator as Robert Louis Stevenson is David Rintoul and the music is played by the Scottish Chamber Orchestra conducted by Howard Blake. The Epilogue spoken by Rintoul is a very emotional moment ,looking back into his life to find the boy that he was , no longer there. and for me, and I suspect for many, a highlight of the film. images (14) I sincerely hope that this in time will prove a worthwhile successor to THE SNOWMAN but in it\u2019s own right. I should also mention that the illustrations by Mark Reeve and Animation by Emmett Elvin are first rate, and one can see, that this has been a labour of love for all concerned. Whilst there seems to be no film assignment on the horizon , we can be grateful for the outstanding scores he has produced for film \u2018s of such varying quality. Some classics as the aforementioned THE DUELLISTS and RIDDLE OF THE SANDS, and some like S.O.S. TITANIC which I would have loved to hear in the full longer film, certainly the one currently available is lamentably short. Then of course there are THE AVENGERS , scores for the some of the latter Linda Thorson epsodioes which show show imagination and even those early days, class I often think that whilst there is no comparison as such background wise, he has a marked affinity with Andre Previn, both stated out working on films and pianist , arranger before going on to provide scores , highly regarded by their peers, and aficionados alike. Both felt, I suspect that the they both felt that need to write music that didn\u2019t have someone talking over. Both have accomplished that to a very high level for both composers can appeal emotionally to listener, for what else is music if you cannot get emotionally involved I still hope one day Howard will find a feature film that will utilise his undeniable talents for he has a keen dramatic instinct .Till then THE LAND OF COUNTERPANE will do quite nicely. Yes indeed.

That such a musician invites someone to make music is probably quite unlikely. That he then also places a new work on the music stand for a premiere recording is almost a miracle. Benedict Kloeckner proves that he is worthy of such an honor: the rising star of the cello scene literally merges together with the grand master himself at the piano to become one on this new GENUIN CD: the whole variety of Blake\u2019s oeuvre, his rhythmic finesse and his humor lights up in thousands of colors. A must for chamber music and film music fans! Genuin GEN15346\t(Back to Top)\nArranged by TIME OUT\nuesday, 19 November 2013 Diversions beyond the Snowman - an encounter with Howard Blake Labels: feature article, interview Howard Blake The name of Howard Blake is immediately synonymous with the music written for the film The Snowman, beyond this his name might recall the scores for films such as Ridley Scott's The Duellists. But Blake has also had a parallel career writing concert music with works ranging from his piano concerto commissioned for the Princess of Wales's 30th birthday, through his oratorio Benedictus to his Diversions for cello and piano which he is recording next year with the young German cellist Benedict Kloeckner. I recently heard Benedict Kloeckner and Howard Blake playing a programme of Howard's music for cello and piano as a celebration of the composer's 75th birthday. At the concert Howard talked of his working on the cello part of the Diversions with the great French cellist Maurice Gendron. Subsequent to this I found I could find no record of Gendron having played the work (Howard's website is admirably comprehensive). So when I met up with Howard Blake to talk about his music and his career it seemed natural to start off our conversation by asking about Diversions. We met in his studio, a former artist's studio on a top floor in Kensington, double-height, top lit, with both a computer and a piano, walls lined with books, pictures and CDs, a record of a long working life; a lovely room in which to work. In person Howard Blake is charming and seemingly possessed of almost total recall, able to talk with ease about events in the past. He uses his website to store all the details of his various performances and during our conversations occasionally pauses to check a detail on his pc. Diversions history is an example of how Howard's concert works seem to go through multiple version, responding to need. Howard is a very practical composer, who sees his role as a craftsman and more than once in our discussions he talked about the composer's role and the need to respond in practical fashion. On his website Howard includes a couple of phrases which seem to sum up both the man and his music, describing himself as 'a composer working as a craftsman, responding to the requirements of the day', and referring to his music as being 'hopefully inspirational and non-elitist'. Howard's Diversions started as a piece for cello and piano in 1973, though he admits that the work was not as honed as it is now. Ten years later, Howard was in contact with the French cellist Maurice Gendron who suggested that the work might be developed into a concerto and Howard travelled to Gendron's home in Grez-sur-Loing to work with him. Gendron's home was just up the river from Delius's house and Howard was able to row from Gendron's house to Delius's along the river which inspired such works as Summer Night on the River. Gendron announce that the finale was boring; to Howard's comment that it was intended to be a major version of the main theme, Gendron responded that he had heard the theme once and never wanted to hear it again. Also, Gendron wanted Howard to make the Sarabande more virtuosic. Though Gendron was in his mid-sixties at the time, he was a superb player and under his encouragement Howard made the work more virtuosic, adding a new Cadenza and Finale. Gendron showed Howard how to take advantage of the extreme possibilities of the cello Once completed, it was planned to premiere the work at the Brighton Festival with the BBC Symphony Orchestra and Gendron as soloist. Near to the concert date the head of Radio 3 informed Howard that it was felt that Gendron was 'past it' and that he was being dropped. (Howard disagreed with this assessment of Gendron, having played works such as Tchaikovsky's Rococo Variations with Gendron whilst staying with him). Another soloist was not offered, and the BBC simply dropped Howard's work from the concert. The work was subsequently premiered with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra and Steven Isserlis as the soloist in the Fairfield Halls, Croydon with Sir Charles Groves conducting, in 1989. Though the location did mean that the work did not make as much impression as it might have. As a result of a record contract with Sony, which came about because of the success of The Snowman, Howard was able to record the concerto alongside his Piano Concerto on a new disc. Steven Isserlis declined to record the work so the part was recorded by Robert Cohen. Howard feels that this splitting of the solo role rather dissipated the potential of the work at its premiere performances; though Isserlis performed it subsequently, the recording was by a different cellist. Isserlis performed the work in 1991 at the Three Choirs Festival with the RLPO and Vernon Handley. Robert Cohen performed it in 1989 at the Royal Festival Hall, with the Bach Choir performing Howard's Benedictus, though Howard admits that it didn't fill the hall. Cohen performed the work again in 2000 with the Brighton Philharmonic under Barry Wordsworth. And that appeared to be that. Then in 2010 Howard got an email from a young German cellist, Benedict Kloeckner. One of Kloeckner's teachers was Martin Rummel. Howard and Martin Rummel had played the Diversions, in the version for cello and piano at the British Music Information Centre. When Kloeckner asked Rummel to recommend a contemporary work for cello and piano he suggested the Diversions. Having learned it, Kloeckner wanted some coaching and he and his pianist came over to Howard's studio. My meeting with Howard is in his studio and at this point in our discussion he walks over to the piano to demonstrate how the young players had got some of the speeds wrong, and he plays a passage twice; once gently and then again, this time rather burning up the keyboard. Impressed with Kloeckner's playing, Howard found himself demonstrating a lot to them. After two hours, Howard assumed that was that. Then Howard got an email from Benedict to say that he had entered the work for the European Broadcasting Union Young Artists Competition, and had come in the last seven (out of 32 countries), and that the finals were in Bratislava when he would be playing Diversions again. Howard went out to Bratislava and heard Benedict playing Diversions and he came in the final three. Next day the three finalists played a concerto, and Benedict played the Elgar and came first. Howard described it as a big event, champagne was drunk and bold plaques delivered. Before leaving for Bratislava Howard had realised that, if Benedict did win he would need a present. He thought of his violin sonata and, as with Sibelius it was relatively straightforward to transpose the work for cello. Benedict was pleased with his present and, some time later invited Howard to do a recital with him. With Diversions, the new/old Cello Sonata and two existing works for cello and piano Penillion and Jazz Dances, they had a complete programme. The first time that Howard played with Benedict Kloeckner he felt that they had a rapport. Their first concert together was at the Historiche Cafehalle in Schlangenbad, a suburb of Mainz in 2011. The concert was a success and they have gone on to do further concerts together and will be recording the programme for SWDR in early 2014. But the long journey of Diversions wasn't finished. Benedict had been playing with the Berlin Kammerorchester, performing a string version of Schumann's Cello Concerto in 2011 which Howard heard. So Howard created a new version of Diversions for string orchestra, which Benedict played at the Berlin Konzerthaus this year. And there are possibilities of further performances in the UK next year Benedict Kloeckner and the Berlin Kammerorchester conductor Jordi Bernacer in Howard Blake's Diversions for Cello and String Orchestra Howard Blake had started life as a pianist, getting a piano scholarship to the Royal Academy of Music. Whilst at the Academy he formed a duo with the violinist Miles Baster and learned the whole of the violin/piano repertoire, performing recitals in music clubs. In 1960 they performed in Edinburgh. It was a great success and Baster was offered a job of founding the Edinburgh String quartet. Thus bringing an end to their duo partnership. Howard's time at the Academy wasn't entirely happy. His composition teacher, Howard Ferguson, retired after a year and Howard found himself out of sympathy with the prevailing style of serialism and modernism on composition. Whilst at the Academy he virtually stopped composing and stopped playing the piano. Afterwards he started to work in films eventually working as a session player and conducting. He also learned to play jazz as it was only way to get work, eventually becoming in house pianist for the Abbey Road studios, playing everything from classical to jazz and rock, even playing cabaret on television. This led to work on films with people like Bernard Hermann and it was through Hermann that he took over writing music for The Avengers (Howard wrote music for 10 episodes). Later in our conversations Howard talked about having to write music for a weekly show like the The Avengers stopped him worrying about the Academy's obsession with making every bar of music original. This was being a craftsman, writing music responding to need. Life became so busy, with conducting, composing and being musical director at Elstree Studios, that Howard stopped playing the piano entirely. The busy-ness finally got to him, and he found he had no time for writing music, he wanted to write chamber music again. So in 1972 he dropped out and moved to Sussex. He admits that he was lucky, he had enough money in royalties to make him independent. Asked to write a series for Thames TV he said he'd do it if he could write for a chamber group, a piano trio with himself piano. He enjoyed it and they started playing Schubert Trios in concerts. They suggested he write his own music for their concerts, the original version of Diversions and the Violin Sonata both arose in this manner, plus a Piano Quartet written for a concert in 1975. All three works come from a period of intense action, and the Piano Quartet remains one of Howard's absolute favourite works. Inevitably, with all this activity, Howard's returned to his piano playing. Then Ridley Scott asked him to write the music for his first film, Ridley Scott's film The Duellists was an enormous hit and Howard was aked to do big films. There was a ballet for the Queen's Jubilee, plus some big orchestra pieces, he was busy writing again, too busy to play the piano. In 1989, David Welton of the Philharmonia contacted him. The Princess of Wales was the President of the orchestra and they wanted Howard to write a piano concerto for a concert for the princess's 30th birthday. Howard described it as a most glorious commission and Evgeny Kissin was to play the piano part. Nearer the time, Kissin announced that he did not have enough time to lean the piece. The premiere was in May 1991 and by Autumn 1990 there was no pianist. David Welton phoned Howard and said that 'the boys day that you can play it'. Howard linked the performance to a recording, deciding that the only way he could do the performance was to use a recording to check that he could indeed play it. The recording was done on a Fazioli piano, amazingly the first modern piano concerto to be played on a Fazioli. He had to practice for three months to get it back doing scales and Cramer studies. And indeed it all did come back, he recorded the concerto from memory. But in the dressing room at the Royal Festival Hall just before the concert, he found that he could not remember. He had never played a concerto in his life before, and it was too late to do anything to remedy the situation. He went out and realised he had to play is as if he was in the studio. The recording was issued on CD with the Diversions for Cello and Orchestra and Toccata, and Sony re-issued the disc five years ago to celebrate Howard's 70th birthday. A new disc of concertos, The Barber of Neville has just been issued on the Pentatone classics label, with Sir Neville Marriner conducting the Academy of St Martin in the Fields in Howard's Flute, Clarinet and Bassoon concertos, plus the Serenade for Wind Octet.

Peter Adams, the Philharmonic\u2019s popular principal cello, was the virtuoso backbone of four chamber works covering the entire span of Brighton-bred Blake\u2019s distinguished career. From the re-worked teenage Fantasy-trio of 1956 to last year\u2019s \u2018Elegia Stravagante\u2019, each work was full of glorious melody and rhythmic complexity. The composer\u2019s amiable introductions and helpful programme notes illuminated these delightful works even more. Blake is still recovering from a broken wrist so the piano part was played, at just a few days\u2019 notice, by the excellent Sacha Grynyuk. Daniel Bhattacharya (violin) and Bruce White (viola) completed the ensemble.

Reviewed by Robert Hugill on April 17th 2015. The concert at Milton Court Concert Hall on Friday 17 April 2015 was a showcase for the chamber music of Howard Blake. The group of musicians consisted of the young German cellist Benedict Kloeckner, who has developed something of a name for himself playing Howard Blake's music, with violinist Madeleine Mitchell, viola player Rivka Golani, and pianist Sasha Grynyuk. The pianist was intended to be Howard Blake himself, but in the event a broken arm prevented his playing, and we were lucky enough to get Sasha Grynyuk, who learned the taxing programme specially. The musicians came together in various combinations, with the Prelude for solo viola, Diversions and The Enchantment of Venus both for cello and piano, Piano Trio No. 3 Elegia Stravagante and Piano Quartet. The concert opened with Howard Blake's Piano Trio No. 3, Elegia Stravagante which was written in 2014 and premiered by Howard Blake and Benedict Kloeckner, with Linus Roth, in Koblenz in September 2014. In seven movements, the work is based on a melody which is first stated in the opening Andante (rapsodico) movement. It is a wistful, elegant and rather thoughtful melody, by turns dramatic and elegiac, which Howard Blake subjected to a variety of treatments including elements of jazz/blues, and a big solo moment for the cello. Despite the romantic textures of the work there was a clarity and elegance to the performance. Benedict Kloeckner won the 2010 European Broadcasting Union competition playing Howard Blake's Diversions for cello and piano, and he and the composer have played it on subsequent occasions and recorded it. The work was originally written in 1983 and Howard Blake developed the cello part in conjunction with the French cellist Maurice Gendron, so it is a bravura and challenging work. It is an eight-movement suite which starts with a Prelude with a long-breathed and elegant melody which was given an intense, sung performance from Benedict Kloeckner, who played the piece from memory. A jazz-like, skittering Scherzo followed, then a darkly dramatic March with a big tragic cello tune. The Waltz had jazz-like hints too, and despite the technical challenges it was clear that Benedict Kloeckner was enjoying himself. The slow moving, elegiac Aria was followed by a rhythmically catchy Serenade which circled round endlessly, followed by a Cadenza which was full of brilliant details, and thoughtful moments. The Finale was very up tempo with fast and furious passage-work. Benedict Kloeckner played with concentration, depth and intensity, and a remarkable maturity, giving a performance which was deeply felt. He was finely supported by pianist Sasha Grynuk, in a piano part which was perhaps less bravura than the cello part, but no less challenging. After the interval the distinguished viola player, Rivka Golani, played Prelude for Solo Viola, which was written by Howard Blake as a prelude to his oratorio Benedictus in 1980 and it was prepared as a solo concert piece in 1989 by the viola player Frederick Riddle. It was a rhapsodic, rather darkly lyrical work using lots of strenuous string crossing and double stopping. Not an easy piece by any means, and it got remarkably violent at times. The Enchantment of Venus was originally written in 2006 for basset clarinet and piano, for Colin Lawson. The version for cello and piano was premiered in Germany by Benedict Kloeckner and Howard Blake in 2014. The work has a mythological narrative, which Howard Blake bases around a lyrical, melancholic melody which he subjects to some strenuous dramatic development and turmoil, before finishing with beautifully simple, elegant melody. As before Benedict Kloeckner played from memory and gave a deeply felt performance, singing the final melody with great beauty. The last work in the programme was the earliest, the Piano Quartet (for piano, violin, viola, cello) which was written in 1974 and premiered in 1975. The opening Allegro con anima was a long, complex and highly structured movement which felt very impulsively romantic and based round an animated, long-breathed melody. The whole movement had the feeling of being inspired by Dvorak's piano-based chamber music, and this carried over into the second movement, Presto (Scherzo). This was fast and furious, with fragments of melody being passed between the instruments. There were a pair of trios, the first lyrical relaxed, the second quieter and darker and more off-beat. The third movement, Lento espressivo, had long intertwining lines for the strings over repeated piano chords, with a magical ending. The finale, Allegro robusto, started out robust and carefree, with a jig-like rhythm, but then the composer moved us rapidly through a variety of moods, by turns darkly dramatic and slow, before a conclusion which seemed to evoke material from the opening. The four performers, combing together in various combinations throughout the evening, all played with a strong commitment and feel for Howard Blake's music, often with some quite challenging writing. And throughout, there was a lovely feeling of chamber interaction and collegiality. In style the music was varied, but always complex and full of interest; Howard Blake's music might be tonal, but it is never simple. And as a treat at the end, the four performers came together to play and arrangement of the composer's best known tune. Howard Blake and Benedict Kloekner's new disc is now available from Genuin and the disc was featured on Deutschlandfunk radio in Berlin last night.\t(Back to Top)\nDAILY MAIL - FLYING THROUGH THE AIR\nPublished by Daily Mail\nHOWARD BLAKE, com\u00adposer of the global hit walk\u00ading In the air, found him\u00adself fly\u00ading through the air in soho af\u00adter trip\u00adping over road\u00adworks out\u00adside the Grou\u00adcho Club.

Howard Blake, who wrote the music for the 1982 Oscar-nominated film The Snowman, said the two organisations displayed an 'extraordinary snobbery' towards 'music with tunes', including film scores. In an interview with The Sunday Times, he said that instead they promote 'atonal work that no one beyond an elite circle can bear to hear'. Blake, 76, criticised the 'British Establishment' for supporting experimental composers such as Pierre Boulez and John Cage while ignoring music with melody. 'There is the view that tonal music has all been done by the great composers and one should therefore be looking for new expression. Nobody would disagree with that. But that does not mean excluding music with melody', he said. The Establishment was driving audiences away from concert halls by refusing to accept that most atonal music has had its day, he added. Blake has composed more than 650 works for stage, screen and concert hall in a career spanning more than 50 years. The West End stage show of The Snowman has just sold its millionth ticket. A concert of his music including four London premieres, will take place on Friday at Milton Court, the new concert hall of the Guildhall School of Music next the Barbican.

September, 2012, St. John\u2019s Smith Square, London. DDD PENTATONE CLASSICS PTC 5186 506 SACD [68:24] This disc is a delight from start to finish. The three wind concertos by Howard Blake all make for highly enjoyable listening while the Serenade for Wind Octet is equally attractive and no mere \u2018filler\u2019. The Concerto for bassoon and string orchestra is the only one of the works that I\u2019ve previously heard. There\u2019s a story behind this work. Some years ago Dr Len Mullenger proposed that MusicWeb International would commission the work for the young bassoonist, Karen Geoghegan, then at the start of her career, to perform and record. Unfortunately, due to circumstances outside the control of either Len or Howard Blake it wasn\u2019t possible to bring that project to fruition but Blake wrote the concerto anyway and here it\u2019s played by Gustavo N\u00fa\u00f1ez, the principal bassoonist of the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra. The concerto, which plays for some 12 minutes, is cast in three short movements and it exploits the various facets of the bassoon very effectively. The music is thoroughly attractive. The first movement is fluent and makes full use of the instrument\u2019s compass. In the pensive little slow movement the bassoon\u2019s singing qualities are brought out while the finale is perky and sprightly. N\u00fa\u00f1ez is an excellent soloist. The Clarinet Concerto was written for Thea King who gave its first performance and recorded it. Sadly, however, she never returned to the work for reasons that are explained in the booklet. Blake made some revisions to the first movement and it\u2019s that revised version that\u2019s presented for the first time on disc in this recording. If you have Thea King\u2019s Hyperion disc containing this concerto and works by Lutoslawski and M\u00e1ty\u00e1s Seiber that will be her recording of the original version of the Blake concerto (CDA66215). The Clarinet Concerto strikes a slightly more serious tone than the other works on this disc. The first movement has a somewhat mysterious air to it. I particularly like the second movement, which follows without a break. Here the music is mellow and songful; it\u2019s gently expressive and is expressively played There are ample opportunities for display in the lively finale. This concerto also benefits from the advocacy of an expert soloist in the person of Andrew Marriner. The Flute Concerto is simply captivating. The first movement is dominated by a lovely, airy melody which is sung by the flute right at the outset. As the movement unfolds and the string orchestra gets involved with the melody the flute decorations are most attractive. The second movement sparkles, living up fully to the fact that the term con Spirito is included in the tempo indication; there\u2019s also a more relaxed central section, which is very pleasing. The slow movement consists of a beguiling theme which is then subject to variation, followed by a cadenza. The finale is, for the most part, vivacious and high spirited. Just before the close there\u2019s a welcome reminiscence of the melody with which the concerto began. This concerto is zestful and delightfully fresh. Jaime Martin does it full justice. The wind Serenade is cast in three movements. The first is urbane and civilised and one notices at once how expertly the music has been laid out for the eight instruments. All parts contribute to the discussion and all the individual lines are clearly heard and well balanced: that latter point is a tribute to the players also. I can only agree with the composer\u2019s comment that this movement contains \u2018a profusion of melody and rhythm and a sense of life bubbling over.\u2019 The second movement strikes a more serious tone but the finale is, in Blake\u2019s words, \u2018capricious, light and breathless.\u2019 Infectiously gay rhythms impart a real spring to the music. All the music on this disc is splendidly performed both by the soloists and by The Academy of St Martin in the Fields. Incidentally, Sir Neville Marriner will celebrate his 90th birthday in April 2014 so the timing of the release of this new disc is highly appropriate. He would have been 88 at the time these recordings were made but I defy any listener to deduce that: the spirited performances could be the work of a man half his age. The recorded sound is excellent. My one very minor caveat is a suspicion that the clarinet was just a shade too close to the microphone; occasionally one detects a little bit of extraneous noise from the instrument but not to any disruptive degree. Otherwise the soloists are expertly balanced against the accompaniment and the overall sound is clear and pleasing. I listened to this hybrid SACD as a conventional CD. The notes are brief but tell you all you need to know about the music. \u201cWhat about the title of the disc?\u201d, I hear you ask. Apparently, Sir Neville, his son, Andrew and Howard Blake all patronised the same hairdressing salon in Knightsbridge, London. At first they weren\u2019t aware that each of them was a client of Jean-Marie but through him they met in due course and planned this recording. Hence the witty album title which, for me, sets the seal on a collection of expertly crafted, very melodious and highly entertaining music. Since the music is so immaculately performed as well I can only conclude by saying \u2018suits you, sir.\u2019 John Quinn\t(Back to Top)\nReview by Blair Sanderson British composer Howard Blake seems to lead two careers, writing music for films and for the concert hall, yet this division is somewhat arbitrary because so much of his work has crossover appeal. The music for the 1982 film The Snowman, for example, has become one of Blake's most recognizable scores, and its signature song, Walking in the Air, has become a genuine hit, covered by pop and even heavy metal artists. Blake has also written evocative music for the films The Duellists and The Changeling, and their themes are included in this 2014 Decca release by pianist Vladimir Ashkenazy. In many instances, Blake composes in a relaxed contemporary classical style, as in the series of 24 piano pieces in Lifecycle, of which 10 are presented here, including the keyboard version of Walking in the Air. Blake is an unabashed tonalist with a pleasing lyrical gift that makes his music instantly accessible, though its mild harmonies and simple melodies are rarely challenging. However, the Dances for 2 pianos and the Sonata for 2 pianos show more rhythmically active music infused with jazz harmonies, and Ashkenazy's performances with his son, Vovka Ashkenazy, are easily the most entertaining selections of this disc.\t(Back to Top)\nAcademy premiere\nPublished by Classical Source\nWorld premiere of Howard Blake\u2019s The Snowman Fantasia \u2013 Academy of St Martin-in-the-Fields/Neville Marriner Tuesday, November 25, 2014 St Martin-in-the-Fields, London Reviewed by Robert Matthew-Walker Sir Neville Marriner. Photograph: www.icartists.co.uk Composers who wish to be taken seriously, whose music is almost exclusively tonal and who write concertos which are called concertos, rather than pieces tagged with titles taken from last week\u2019s headlines or a phrase from last year\u2019s No.1 hit record, and who also have had a considerable success in what might be termed the \u2018crossover\u2019 market, have a hard time of it in today\u2019s critical climate. In the UK Howard Blake (born 1938) might be considered to be the prime example of such a composer, for his million-selling hit song \u2018Walking in the Air\u2019 has become a perennial Christmas favourite, and the show from which it comes \u2013 itself based upon a wonderful television film of 30 years ago, in which Blake\u2019s music was first heard \u2013 is now firmly established as a Christmas \u2018must-see\u2019 (in London, at the Peacock Theatre) for children, quite literally, of all ages. The song itself was a genuine inspiration for Blake, coming to him whilst walking his dog over Hampstead Heath, and it is one which has formed the basis for a series of subsequent works from his pen, transcribed and reworked many times, but always to new and expressive effect. Howard Blake The genre of English composers writing for string orchestra is a long and distinguished one, perhaps more often encountered in the music of the last hundred years or so, and the suggestion by Sir Neville Marriner that Blake should write a work based on the stage show was the impetus for this latest incarnation of the composer\u2019s ongoing fascination with that Hampstead Heath inspiration. Blake is no stranger to writing well and idiomatically for strings: his Violin Concerto and Cello Concerto, especially, attest to that gift, as do his recent String Quartets and other works, and in The Snowman Fantasia he has taken the musical ideas a stage further, although it appears there is one further stage to go. Originally, the idea was that there would be no speech, or singing, in this Fantasia: here would be an opportunity to listen to the music \u2013 after a creative period of over 30 years \u2013 by itself, \u201crecollected in tranquillity\u201d as Wordsworth has it. Although that may have been the initial idea, on this occasion we did have a narrator \u2013 Blake himself \u2013 sitting to one side of Marriner, telling us of the salient points in the story against the orchestral background. I am not entirely sure that this worked in practice: certainly, pieces such as Peter and the Wolf and Babar the Elephant successfully combine narrative with music, but so fascinating was Blake\u2019s succession of quasi-symphonic variations on his unforgettable theme, and his excellent treatment of the material in orchestral guise that I found myself listening more to the musical background-foreground than to the occasional spoken text. The result was faintly disappointing, for I am convinced that a performance of the continuous half-hour score alone would demonstrate the composer\u2019s mastery of his craft and of his material \u2013 especially one as well-played as this was. The ASMF strings were simply superb, and Marriner\u2019s conducting was as dapper and sprightly as ever \u2013 did he truly celebrate his 90th-birthday earlier this year, and has he really just returned from a tour of China and Hong Kong? It seemed incredible \u2013 but he did, and he has. The new Fantasia was followed by the four-movement Flute Concerto from 1996, in which the brilliant and sensitive soloist was Michael Cox. This work is essentially a group of studies in lighter vein \u2013 not \u2018light music\u2019 as such, but perfectly capturing the sylvan nature of the instrument. It must be immensely rewarding to play, and the performance itself was exceptional in every regard, as was that of the rather deeper three-movement Clarinet Concerto which was given in the revised version of 2011. Readers may know Thea King\u2019s Hyperion recording of the original version (1984, the Concerto was originally written for her), but this revision deserves serious attention. It is a more probing work than the Concerto for Flute, having chamber orchestral accompaniment, the emotional expression more intense yet never angst-ridden. James Burke gave a superlative account of the very impressive score. In between these two Concertos came Blake\u2019s splendid Serenade for Wind Octet (1990), a subtly impressive score. Its three movements are quite beautifully laid out for the instruments. Germs of melodies are used and re-used in successive movements, giving the Serenade an organic unity that is notable in itself and which suits the nature of the music excellently. The piece is a beautiful and attractive addition to a repertoire that is in serious danger of dying out. The performance, given without a conductor, was delightfully engrossing. One doesn\u2019t hear orchestral and instrumental playing of this calibre every night of the week.\t(Back to Top)\nWednesday, 26 November 2014 Academy of St Martin in the Fields plays Howard Blake Labels: concert review ASMF at St Martin in the Fields Howard Blake Snowman Fantasia, Flute Concerto, Clarinet Concerto, Serenade for Wind Octet; Academy of St Martin in the Fields, Sir Neville Marriner; St Martin in the Fields Reviewed by Robert Hugill on Nov 25 2014 Star rating: 4.0 Two wind concertos at the centre of the Academy of St Martin in the Fields concert of Howard Blake's music Having recorded a disc of Howard Blake's more recent music (see my review) in 2013, Sir Neville Marriner and the Academy of St Martin in the Fields gave a concert of Howard Blake's music at the church of St Martin in the Fields on Tuesday 25 November 2014. The orchestra's principal flautist, Michael Cox, was the soloist in Blake's Flute Concerto op.493a, and the orchestra's principal clarinettist, James Burke, was the soloist in Blake's Clarinet Concerto op.329a, the wind players from the orchestra played Blake's Serenade for Wind Octet op.419 and the concert opened with Blake's new arrangement of his most popular piece - The Snowman. Here the Snowman Fantasia op.532 was played by the strings of the orchestra, conducted by Sir Neville Marriner with Blake himself narrating. The Snowman is one of those pieces that we think we all remember, but how much do we really? The music is inextricably linked to the song, Walking in the Air which was sung by Aled Jones, except of course that in the original film it was sung by Peter Auty (now a distinguished operatic tenor) and when Blake originally sketched out the score there was no song, just a melody. In fact Blake wrote the music first, based on an initial animators' idea and Raymond Briggs book. The animation was done to Blake's piano score and it was this version to which he returned for the new string arrangement. Originally intended to stand alone, without either images or narration, Blake had been persuaded by Sir Neville Marriner to include the spoken story and the result created rather a striking melodrama. Blake's wit and sense of enjoyment of the story came over strongly, not just in his narrative but in the music itself now shorn of visual images. The rich detailing of the string writing played dividends, especially in the strong yet disciplined performance it received from the strings of the Academy of St Martin in the Fields. I was particularly struck by how the big tune, in its various appearances sung by the strings, was given in a poised and evocative manner without any attempt to milk it. Blake's writing for strings often echoed that of his predecessors and I caught rather nice hints at such pieces as Trevor Duncan's Little Suite. Howard Blake's Flute Concerto dates from 1996 and is written for flute and strings. It starts with the flute, which has a solo over tremolando strings. This lovely melody is the basis for variations which the flute works over the strings. Cox not only brought a nice fluency to the decoration but played with a lovely warm tone, complemented by the strings' flexible yet firm sense of line. The second movement, marked Scherzo con spirito was rather perky with a characterful interplay between flute and strings. the Andante expressive was slow and elegant, with some fabulous passagework from Cox in the variations and a rather touching cadenza. The final Marcia Grazioso was perky again, with a lovely element of humour. There was a something of neo-baroque feel to the concerto, in the way that Blake wrote for his soloist and strings, but the sound world is very much 20th century. The soloist, Michael Cox, not only showed that he had the technique to play all of Blake's notes, but brought a thoughtful warmth and real emotional depth to the piece. It was a performance which really made me view the work in a different light, particularly the way Cox played the lovely opening theme when it returns at the end of the concerto. Blake's Serenade for Wind Octet was written in 1990, it was played by the wind players from the orchestra without a conductor. The work is very much modern harmoniemusik with Blake revelling in the sound that two oboes, two clarinets, two horns and two bassoons can make when playing together. That said, the textures were very much led by the principal oboe, played by Christopher Cowie, and principal clarinet, played by James Burke. The opening Grazioso con moto was full of infectious rhythm and layers of melodic detail. The players gave the unashamedly romantic music a lovely warm sound. The Serioso come una marcia lente started with a lovely melancholy melody on the oboe, with a rocking accompaniment, and these two elements were developed throughout the movement with the melody passed between oboe and clarinet, creating some intensely passionate melodic moments. The finale, Molto vivace capriccioso had a slightly jazzy edge to the rhythms and was an infectious delight, with a lovely interplay between the instruments. The players gave the piece a lovely romantic warmth and depth of sound, and the work seemed to develop a greater emotional richness than on the recording. The concert concluded with Blake's Clarinet Concerto. Written originally for Thea King, the work has a slightly complex history (see my review of the CD for more details), but in James Burke's performance came over as highly passionate, melancholy piece. It opens with a short rhapsodic moment for solo clarinet which leads into the opening movement, Moderato molto deciso. Though the clarinet plays a lyrical melody over a syncopated rhythmic accompaniement in the strings, the sense of melancholy English rhapsody is never far away in the work. Quite impressively Burke never allowed the number of notes in the solo part to overwhelm him, and they were all subsumed into a lovely sense of lyrical rhapsody. Another lyrical recitative links into the Lento serioso again a solo line beautifully sung yet suffused with a very particular sort of English melancholy. The finale, Round Dance: Vivace quite simply combines lots of notes with some infectiously jazzy rhythms. The number of notes seemed to bother Burke not a whit, and his passagework was both spectacular and expressive, finishing with an incredible bravura finish. Blake's writing for clarinet in the work has always struck me as evoking Gerald Finzi's clarinet concerto, and this reveals layers of historical background and influence. The first soloist in the concerto, Thea King, was married to Frederick Thurston who premiered Finzi's concerto. And Blake's teacher at the Royal Academy was Howard Ferguson, who had been taught by RO Morris and RVW and who was a great friend of Gerald Finzi. Cox brought out these influences, but made the work his own and gave it a real emotional kick. Throughout he was well supported by Marriner and the orchestra. It was lovely to hear a whole concert of Howard Blake's music and gratifying to see such a good audience for the Academy of St. Martin in the Fields brave enterprise. In addition to the Academy's support for Blake's music, perhaps what was most impressive was the way that two orchestral principals took the solo roles in a pair of virtuoso conccertos. I do hope that we get to hear more of Howard Blake's music in concert, there is plenty worth hearinIng and he has reached opus number 666!\nGloucester Music Society, St Mary de Lode Church. Madeleine Mitchell violin, Rosalind Ventris viola, Peter Adams cello, Howard Blake piano. Gloucester Music Society's final concert of 2014 was something really rather special: an entire concert of chamber music written by Howard Blake, better known as a composer for stage and screen - most notably for Raymond Briggs' animated tale of 'The Snowman.' But any thoughts that we might be in for an evening of lightweight easy listening were quickly put to bed by the opening piece: the UK premi\u00e8re of his Piano Trio No 2 Elegia Stravagante, a terse but ultimately amiable discourse for piano and strings in one continuous movement of seven interlinked sections. It also set out Blake's territory, clearly and unambiguously: resolutely diatonic, rhythmically vital and lyrical beyond belief. Howard Blake's gift for melody is second to none, and was evident in each piece in tonight's concert. Pennillion for cello and piano, a set of variations upon an imaginary Welsh song, was a case in point. But there's much more to Blake's music than a 'good tune' or two. The Violin Sonata of 2007 is a study in virtuosity, even in the central Lento which has an air of requiem about it, and was played with aplomb by Madeleine Mitchell. And the Prelude for Solo Viola, adapted from a large- scale choral work Benedictus, has already found its way into the curriculum for music academies. It is easy to see why as it is a test of any violist's sensitivity as well as technique \u2013 and Rosalind Ventris was equal to it tonight. Howard himself was in the spotlight for the Impromptu piano solo of 1975, during which he displayed his formidable technique as well as compositional facility. But the piece de resistance was the Piano Quartet of 1974: a work of intellectual and emotional rigour that left one aghast at its composers' staggering level of invention. This four-movement piece encapsulates the essence of Howard Blake's craft \u2013 sensibility and logic within an accessible medium. It is a winning formula without ever being \u2013 or sounding \u2013 formulaic. The four musicians then rounded off the evening with an arrangement of Walking In The Air for piano quartet, the first time the piece had been performed for this particular combination of instruments. It was a wonderfully seasonal way to end what had been a truly magical evening of stunning music. Such a pity there weren't a few more Gloucesterians there to savour it. \u00a92014 Julia Price\nArranged by Julia Price\nArranged by BY ROBERT MATTHEW-WALKER\nHOWARD BLAKE PIANO CONCERTO\nSunday, 17 August 2014 Howard Blake piano concerto Labels: cd review by Robert Hugill Howard Blake - Piano COncerto Howard Blake's Concerto for Piano and Orchestra was commissioned by the Philharmonia Orchestra in 1991 to celebrate the 30th birthday of Diana, Princess of Wales. It was given its premiere by the orchestra, conducted by David Willcocks, with the composer playing the piano part. The work had been recorded by Sony prior to this performance and this recording was reissued by Sony in 2008. It is a substantial work lasting over 26 minutes and cast, as you might expect from Blake, in traditional form. Blake's career as a composer has been spent mediating between the traditional and more contemporary elements in the 20th century classical style. The opening movement starts with an evocative and wistful Lento, a movement to which you might give the adjective filmic. Blake's concert music is fascinating for the way he does not turn his back on his film music but absorbs it and develops it. The music then gathers momentum, and the solo piano part become more strenuous as the Allegro bursts onto the scene. The writing is tonal, but complex and requires something from the listener. The piano writing is quite strenuous, but the soloist is rather part of the texture in the baroque or classical manner, rather then in combat with the orchestra in the Romantic tradition. A hushed orchestra introduces a slow, evocative piano in the Andante espressivo. The movement develops with piano running passages through the orchestra texture, which culminates into a rather wonderful, big romantic moment The final Vivace wonderfully perky with the busy piano part loudly interrupted by the orchestra, and some lovely jazzy moments. When I interviewed Howard Blake, he talked about how he had to re-learn his piano technique to play the piano part. The results are impressive and confidently fluent. It is piano writing which is probably difficult, but not always showy and Blake shows himself a sympathetic soloist, finely supported by Willcocks and the Philharmonia Orchestra. The companion works to the concerto are two more of Blake's large scale orchestral works. His Diversions for Cello and Orchestra were written in their final form in 1985, with the cello part edited by the cellist Maurice Gendron. It started out life as a set of pieces for cello and piano, but the involvement of Gendron led to a considerable expansion of the piece with a commensurate increase in the virtuoso bravura of the solo cello part. Blake has recently started playing this bravura version with cello and piano and plans to record it with cellist ???? This recording of the orchestral version was made with Blake conducting the Philharmonia Orchestra, with cellist Robert Cohen as the soloist. The work is a sequence of relatively short movements which hark back to the suites of the past. The opening Prelude is melancholy, with the cello singing in the alto register at first unaccompanied and then with just high strings. A perkily busy not quite Scherzo leads to a melancholic, rather dramatic March. The rather busy Waltz has some rather skittish, skittery playing. The Aria is the longest movement, it is slow and dark, with a sense of sustained intensity. Serenade is a rhythmic and melodic dance, and here the solo cello part starts to get rather busy indeed. The Sarabande and Cadenza provides the solo cellist with some wonderful virtuoso display moments, with quite a spare and dark accompaniement from the orchestra. The Finale is fast and furious with a wonderfully bravura end. Blake's Diversions is a terrific work which combines an element of bravura with just the right element of fun and Robert Cohen is suitably dazzling in the solo part. The final work on the disc,Toccata (A celebration of the Orchestra) was commissioned by the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra for the 30th birthday season (1976/77). The version performed on the disc was revised by Blake in 1988/1990. The work is a large and complex piece designed to show of the orchestra, but allied to a quite sophisticated structural imagination. All based on an 84 bar theme, Blake plays imaginative games in the way he shows off the orchestra and demonstrates his ingenuity. The joy of the piece is that none of this really matters, as when you listen you are carried away. The first section of the work displays the various sections of the orchestra, with the music having a quiet sense of steady overall progression. Blake uses a lively imagination in the way he gives each section of its orchestra its moment. And then the piece concludes with a wonderful jazzy fugue. None of the works on this disc is well known, and the disc itself is slightly tricky to obtain. But I rather like Blake's imaginative re-working of contemporary style. The music here doesn't seek to re-define or push boundaries, instead it builds intelligently what has gone before. The results are neither simple nor simplistic and fascinating in their combination of wit and complexity.\t(Back to Top)\n\u2026I would prefer our children to see this film (The Snowman) and listen to this music\u2026the lyrics, the music, this boys voice\u2026come from somewhere magical.

Conducting the Academy of St Martin in the Fields, the ensemble he founded in 1959. On this disc they perform Blake's Flute Concerto, with Jamie Martin, Clarinet Concerto with Andrew Marriner, Bassoon Concerto with Gustavo Nunez and Serenade for Wind Octet. The title of the album refers to the circumstances which brought the recording about. Without being award of it Howard Blake, Sir Neville Marriner and his son Andrew all frequented the same hair dresser and it was through his good offices that they met and planned the programme. Blake's Flute Concerto was written in 1996 and is for flute and string orchestra. In a very striking opening the flute sings over tremolando strings, with some lovely melodic writing for the flute. As the strings take over the musical theme the flute provides elaborate decorations. The scherzo (marked con spirito) is crisp and lively with, like much of the concerto, a neo-baroque feel. The movement has a lovely slow middle section, almost a cadenza and a rather perky coda. The Andante espressivo is a beautifully poised slow movement, the flute decorating the melody in a series of variations with a cadenza leading to the fourth movement, Marcia graziosi. This is a lively piece with a fluently personable theme. A cadenza leads into an atmospheric reminiscence of the opening. As I have mentioned, the concerto has a somewhat neo-baroque feel, not that Baroque's style is aping the baroque, but the way he writes for the flute with it playing nearly continuously is akin to baroque concertos. Soloist Jaime Martin is the principal flute with the Chamber Orchestra of Europe, the Academy of St. Martin in the Fields and the orchestra of English National Opera. His playing is warmly fluent and poised throughout, giving the concerto a beautiful blitheness. Blake's Clarinet Concerto has something of a history. It was originally written in 1984 for Dame Thea King (1925 - 2007). The publishers, Faber, insisted the composer re-write some of the passage-work in the first movement. Prior to a second performance in Vallencia, Blake supplied a revised clarinet part. But this was given to Thea King at the last moment by the publishers. This allowed her no time to study it, upset she put the work aside, never to perform it again. In 2010 Blake was persuaded to look at the addition he made, and he produced a new edition which re-instated them. Thea King was taught by the clarinettist Frederick Thurston (1901- 1953), whose husband she became. Thurston gave the premiere of Gerald Finzi's Clarinet Concerto, a work whose influence seems to hover over Blake's concerto. The opening movement starts with a short rhapsodic clarinet solo over sustained strings (the composer describes it as a recitative) Invocation , leading to the movement proper, marked Moderato molto deciso. The writing for clarinet very much evoked for me that of Finizi, but with an interesting rhythmic element to the accompaniment. The movement is a dialogue between the clarinet and the strings, rather perky in character but with hidden depths. A second recitative follows, Ceremony, another rhapsodic clarinet solo over sustained strings, this time leading to the slow movement, Lento serioso. This is the emotional heart of the concert, a rather intense movement full of English rhapsody. The finale, Round Dance: Vivace is a lively movement but hardly up beat, there is still a melancholic cast to the writing. Andrew Marriner, former principal clarinettist with the London Symphony Orchestra and the Academy of St Martin in the Fields, responds fluently to the technical demands of the concerto, his playing sounding easy and flexible. He responds warmly to the autumnal glow of the concerto and helps bring out the intense, rather melancholic nature of the English pastoral idyll. Blake's Bassoon Concerto was written in 1971 and revised in 2009, it is written for bassoon and strings. The opening Moderato starts with a gathering gesture from the string, followed by melancholy musings on the bassoon. As the accompaniment gets more developed, the bassoon writing becomes more elaborate. In this movement Blake deliberately utilises the instrument's ability to um large intervals. Soloist Gustavo Nunez plays with lovely chestnut tones. Like the clarinet concerto, despite the outward gaiety of the movement there is a sense of underlying melancholy. The slow movement, Larghetto, is a deceptively simple movement, with the bassoon line over a nicely discreet string accompaniment. The music develops that sense of intensely passionate English rhapsody which I heard in the clarinet concerto. The finale, Presto is a perky movement with an edgy interplay between soloist and strings, leading to a long imaginative cadenza. Nunez is the principal bassoon of the Royal Concert Gebouw Orchestra. He plays with lovely smooth chestnut tones, without the slightest sense of comedy that can sometimes accrue to the instrument. He demonstrates that the bassoon can be a real romantic protagonist in a concerto. Finally we hear Blake's Serenade for Wind Octet written in 1990. His writing for the wind group reflects the wind octets harmoniemusik origins, music written for outside. The Grazioso opening movement displays some lovely textures and introduces us to a distinctively fascinating sound world. The second movement, Seriosos come una marcia lente features a lovely long breathed oboe solo, playing an attractively meandering melody. The third movement Molto vivace is a delightful piece, full of high spirits. Blake has a remarkable talent for melodic felicity, and many of the musical ideas are highly memorable but he combines this with strong musical structure and emotional depth. This is music which appeals to mind and emotions as well as tickling the ear. His debt to his teacher Howard Ferguson and to English music from the 1950's is strong. Blake's music is unashamedly tonal and his traditional style clearly different to that of many of his contemporaries. But in our modern plural world there is room for all styles, and this disc introduces us to four works which delight and fascinate.

But Blake has also had a parallel career writing concert music with works ranging from his piano concerto commissioned for the Princess of Wales's 30th birthday, through his oratorio Benedictus to his Diversions for cello and piano which he is recording next year with the young German cellist Benedict Kloeckner. I recently heard Benedict Kloeckner and Howard Blake playing a programme of Howard's music for cello and piano as a celebration of the composer's 75th birthday. At the concert Howard talked of his working on the cello part of the Diversions with the great French cellist Maurice Gendron. Subsequent to this I found I could find no record of Gendron having played the work (Howard's website is admirably comprehensive). So when I met up with Howard Blake to talk about his music and his career it seemed natural to start off our conversation by asking about Diversions. We met in his studio, a former artist's studio on a top floor in Kensington, double-height, top lit, with both a computer and a piano, walls lined with books, pictures and CDs, a record of a long working life; a lovely room in which to work. In person Howard Blake is charming and seemingly possessed of almost total recall, able to talk with ease about events in the past. He uses his website to store all the details of his various performances and during our conversations occasionally pauses to check a detail on his pc. Diversions history is an example of how Howard's concert works seem to go through multiple version, responding to need. Howard is a very practical composer, who sees his role as a craftsman and more than once in our discussions he talked about the composer's role and the need to respond in practical fashion. On his website Howard includes a couple of phrases which seem to sum up both the man and his music, describing himself as 'a composer working as a craftsman, responding to the requirements of the day', and referring to his music as being 'hopefully inspirational and non-elitist'. Howard's Diversions started as a piece for cello and piano in 1973, though he admits that the work was not as honed as it is now. Ten years later, Howard was in contact with the French cellist Maurice Gendron who suggested that the work might be developed into a concerto and Howard travelled to Gendron's home in Grez-sur-Loing to work with him. Gendron's home was just up the river from Delius's house and Howard was able to row from Gendron's house to Delius's along the river which inspired such works as Summer Night on the River. Gendron announce that the finale was boring; to Howard's comment that it was intended to be a major version of the main theme, Gendron responded that he had heard the theme once and never wanted to hear it again. Also, Gendron wanted Howard to make the Sarabande more virtuosic. Though Gendron was in his mid-sixties at the time, he was a superb player and under his encouragement Howard made the work more virtuosic, adding a new Cadenza and Finale. Gendron showed Howard how to take advantage of the extreme possibilities of the cello Once completed, it was planned to premiere the work at the Brighton Festival with the BBC Symphony Orchestra and Gendron as soloist. Near to the concert date the head of Radio 3 informed Howard that it was felt that Gendron was 'past it' and that he was being dropped. (Howard disagreed with this assessment of Gendron, having played works such as Tchaikovsky's Rococo Variations with Gendron whilst staying with him). Another soloist was not offered, and the BBC simply dropped Howard's work from the concert. The work was subsequently premiered with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra and Steven Isserlis as the soloist in the Fairfield Halls, Croydon with Sir Charles Groves conducting, in 1989. Though the location did mean that the work did not make as much impression as it might have. As a result of a record contract with Sony, which came about because of the success of The Snowman, Howard was able to record the concerto alongside his Piano Concerto on a new disc. Steven Isserlis declined to record the work so the part was recorded by Robert Cohen. Howard feels that this splitting of the solo role rather dissipated the potential of the work at its premiere performances; though Isserlis performed it subsequently, the recording was by a different cellist. Isserlis performed the work in 1991 at the Three Choirs Festival with the RLPO and Vernon Handley. Robert Cohen performed it in 1989 at the Royal Festival Hall, with the Bach Choir performing Howard's Benedictus, though Howard admits that it didn't fill the hall. Cohen performed the work again in 2000 with the Brighton Philharmonic under Barry Wordsworth. And that appeared to be that. Then in 2010 Howard got an email from a young German cellist, Benedict Kloeckner. One of Kloeckner's teachers was Martin Rummel. Howard and Martin Rummel had played the Diversions, in the version for cello and piano at the British Music Information Centre. When Kloeckner asked Rummel to recommend a contemporary work for cello and piano he suggested the Diversions. Having learned it, Kloeckner wanted some coaching and he and his pianist came over to Howard's studio. My meeting with Howard is in his studio and at this point in our discussion he walks over to the piano to demonstrate how the young players had got some of the speeds wrong, and he plays a passage twice; once gently and then again, this time rather burning up the keyboard. Impressed with Kloeckner's playing, Howard found himself demonstrating a lot to them. After two hours, Howard assumed that was that. Then Howard got an email from Benedict to say that he had entered the work for the European Broadcasting Union Young Artists Competition, and had come in the last seven (out of 32 countries), and that the finals were in Bratislava when he would be playing Diversions again. Howard went out to Bratislava and heard Benedict playing Diversions and he came in the final three. Next day the three finalists played a concerto, and Benedict played the Elgar and came first. Howard described it as a big event, champagne was drunk and bold plaques delivered. Before leaving for Bratislava Howard had realised that, if Benedict did win he would need a present. He thought of his violin sonata and, as with Sibelius it was relatively straightforward to transpose the work for cello. Benedict was pleased with his present and, some time later invited Howard to do a recital with him. With Diversions, the new/old Cello Sonata and two existing works for cello and piano Penillion and Jazz Dances, they had a complete programme. The first time that Howard played with Benedict Kloeckner he felt that they had a rapport. Their first concert together was at the Historiche Cafehalle in Schlangenbad, a suburb of Mainz in 2011. The concert was a success and they have gone on to do further concerts together and will be recording the programme for SWDR in early 2014. But the long journey of Diversions wasn't finished. Benedict had been playing with the Berlin Kammerorchester, performing a string version of Schumann's Cello Concerto in 2011 which Howard heard. So Howard created a new version of Diversions for string orchestra, which Benedict played at the Berlin Konzerthaus this year. And there are possibilities of further performances in the UK next year Benedict Kloeckner and the Berlin Kammerorchester conductor Jordi Bernacer in Howard Blake's Diversions for Cello and String Orchestra Howard Blake had started life as a pianist, getting a piano scholarship to the Royal Academy of Music. Whilst at the Academy he formed a duo with the violinist Miles Baster and learned the whole of the violin/piano repertoire, performing recitals in music clubs. In 1960 they performed in Edinburgh. It was a great success and Baster was offered a job of founding the Edinburgh String quartet. Thus bringing an end to their duo partnership. Howard's time at the Academy wasn't entirely happy. His composition teacher, Howard Ferguson, retired after a year and Howard found himself out of sympathy with the prevailing style of serialism and modernism on composition. Whilst at the Academy he virtually stopped composing and stopped playing the piano. Afterwards he started to work in films eventually working as a session player and conducting. He also learned to play jazz as it was only way to get work, eventually becoming in house pianist for the Abbey Road studios, playing everything from classical to jazz and rock, even playing cabaret on television. This led to work on films with people like Bernard Hermann and it was through Hermann that he took over writing music for The Avengers (Howard wrote music for 10 episodes). Later in our conversations Howard talked about having to write music for a weekly show like the The Avengers stopped him worrying about the Academy's obsession with making every bar of music original. This was being a craftsman, writing music responding to need. Life became so busy, with conducting, composing and being musical director at Elstree Studios, that Howard stopped playing the piano entirely. The busy-ness finally got to him, and he found he had no time for writing music, he wanted to write chamber music again. So in 1972 he dropped out and moved to Sussex. He admits that he was lucky, he had enough money in royalties to make him independent. Asked to write a series for Thames TV he said he'd do it if he could write for a chamber group, a piano trio with himself piano. He enjoyed it and they started playing Schubert Trios in concerts. They suggested he write his own music for their concerts, the original version of Diversions and the Violin Sonata both arose in this manner, plus a Piano Quartet written for a concert in 1975. All three works come from a period of intense action, and the Piano Quartet remains one of Howard's absolute favourite works. Inevitably, with all this activity, Howard's returned to his piano playing. Then Ridley Scott asked him to write the music for his first film, Ridley Scott's film The Duellists was an enormous hit and Howard was aked to do big films. There was a ballet for the Queen's Jubilee, plus some big orchestra pieces, he was busy writing again, too busy to play the piano. In 1989, David Welton of the Philharmonia contacted him. The Princess of Wales was the President of the orchestra and they wanted Howard to write a piano concerto for a concert for the princess's 30th birthday. Howard described it as a most glorious commission and Evgeny Kissin was to play the piano part. Nearer the time, Kissin announced that he did not have enough time to lean the piece. The premiere was in May 1991 and by Autumn 1990 there was no pianist. David Welton phoned Howard and said that 'the boys day that you can play it'. Howard linked the performance to a recording, deciding that the only way he could do the performance was to use a recording to check that he could indeed play it. The recording was done on a Fazioli piano, amazingly the first modern piano concerto to be played on a Fazioli. He had to practice for three months to get it back doing scales and Cramer studies. And indeed it all did come back, he recorded the concerto from memory. But in the dressing room at the Royal Festival Hall just before the concert, he found that he could not remember. He had never played a concerto in his life before, and it was too late to do anything to remedy the situation. He went out and realised he had to play is as if he was in the studio. The recording was issued on CD with the Diversions for Cello and Orchestra and Toccata, and Sony re-issued the disc five years ago to celebrate Howard's 70th birthday. A new disc of concertos, The Barber of Neville has just been issued on the Pentatone classics label, with Sir Neville Marriner conducting the Academy of St Martin in the Fields in Howard's Flute, Clarinet and Bassoon concertos, plus the Serenade for Wind Octet. Howard and Benedict Kloeckner will be recording their cello and piano programme for SWDR in January and performing the programme at Schwetzingen in 2014\t(Back to Top)\nREVIEW OF 'THE BARBER OF NEVILLE' BY CHRISTOPHER HATHAWAY\nPublished by KUHF\nHOWARD BLAKE: Concerto for Flute and String Orchestra, op. 493a (1996).

Members of the Academy of St. Martin-in-the-Fields. PentaTone 5186506. Purchase on ArkivMusic. Almost all of the pieces listed above are being heard on records for the first time; the Clarinet Concerto, in which Sir Neville Marriner\u2019s son Andrew (principal clarinet of the London Symphony) is soloist, is being recorded for the first time in the revised edition. Howard Blake, an Englishman who is now 75 years old, is much like his late American counterpart Alec Wilder in that he sees little if any distinction between \u201cpopular\u201d and \u201cserious\u201d music---for want of better nomenclature. His style is lyrical above all, and his professional and contrapuntal grounding sets him apart from mere tunesmiths. He can write memorable melodies and he knows how to shape them and how to orchestrate them---in the marvelously compact first movement of the Flute Concerto, for instance, the melodic line is briefly traded off with the \u2018cello. The Scherzo (second movement) is superb idiomatic flute writing, with deft handling of the strings. The slow movement is a deeply felt Andante espressivo, a piece that seems to be all about the flute\u2019s middle register and the warmth of the lower strings. The finale is a march marked Grazioso. Jaime Martin is a marvelous artist who plays expressively, securely and without affectation. The Clarinet Concerto in particular shows Blake as a truly great composer, and Andrew Marriner as a great clarinetist. This is not to draw attention away from the other exceptional soloists on this disc, but in this performance a meeting of minds between composer and performer seems to be taking place. The three movements are entitled Invocation, Ceremony and Round Dance. The first begins with the clarinet alone, taking the lead in a rather dark-hued recitative, including some real virtuoso writing. The Allegro section of Invocation has a wonderful contrapuntal fabric and juxtaposition of musical ideas and occasional close harmony with the clarinet in its chalumeau register and the lower strings. The first movement leads without a break into the second, with a single clarinet note providing the bridge. Ceremony is a study in intense, impassioned lyricism; it all seems to bloom from the sound of the clarinet. Toward the end, there is an exquisite trio with the two oboes in the orchestra and the clarinet. The final Round Dance is quintessentially English. The Bassoon Concerto, in which soloist Gustavo Nu\u00f1ez is in wonderful form, is the only one of the three concertos presented here that has an extensive cadenza----in the last movement. It begins with a march-like first movement, in which\u2019s Blake\u2019s lyrical spirit soon takes over. The whole concerto is an ingenious adaptation of the stile gallant to today. Indeed, all of these concertos are written for a Haydn-sized orchestra, more or less, without percussion. Two of them are scored for a string group, but one has the sense that Blake is using strings as a total orchestra, not just as several choirs of one species of musical instrument. It is the newest work on the album, having been completed just four years ago. The Serenade for Wind Octet seems to be dominated by a personalized chorale style; the second movement, Serioso, has a marvelous oboe solo and the finale is a dance that might be called worthy of Byrd or Bull. But, stylistically, this music belongs to no one other than Howard Blake. To steal a phrase from the late composer and critic Herbert Elwell, Howard Blake has shown us that \u201cnew things are still possible within the diatonic system\u201d. The album is titled The Barber of Neville, since Neville and Andrew Marriner --- as well as Howard Blake ----frequented the Kensington hairstyling salon of a man called Jean-Marie. Through Jean-Marie, the three men got together and planned the making of this recording. All four of them are shown in photographs in the accompanying booklet. The Academy under Marriner (who will be 90 next year, and who has passed the symbolic baton to Joshua Bell while continuing to conduct the group from time to time), is one of the marvels of orchestral playing, having begun as a string ensemble and now greatly varied in size and scope as the repertory demands, with a core membership of about fifty to sixty musicians. It continually reveals new aspects of itself, having been heard over the last half-century plus in an unbelievable variety of repertory for ensembles of almost every size and description.\t(Back to Top)\nIf you say the name of composer Howard Blake, then the first thing that comes to mind is his music for The Snowman with its famous song Walking in the Air. Sometimes a success like The Snowman can blind people to the full range of a composer's music, you only ever see the peak rather than the full landscape. Howard Blake is a bit like this, after all his opus numbers run to over 600, his Piano Concerto was written for the 30th birthday of Diana, Princess of Wales and his dramatic oratorio Benedictus has received many performances. Benedict Kloeckner photo Marco Borgreve On Tuesday 29 October we attended a private concert to celebrate Howard Blake's 75th birthday. Blake himself played the piano, accompanying the young German cellist Benedict Kloeckner in a programme of Blake's music for cello and piano, Pennillion for cello and piano op 525a, Diversion for cello and piano, op.337a, Jazz Dances for cello and piano op.520 and Sonata for cello and piano, op.619. Benedict Kloeckner (born 1989) originally got into contact with Blake in connection with Blake's virtuosic Diversions for cello and piano. Kloeckner played the work, accompanied by Jose Gallardo in the European Broadcasting Union's Young Artists Competition in Bratislava in 2010, ultimately winning first prize. Blake, as a congratulatory present, gave Kloeckner a new version of Blake's violin sonata transposed for cello. Kloeckner asked Blake if they could do a recital together, the result was an entire programme of Blake's music for cello and piano which they have performed in Germany a number with great success. They are recording the programme for South West German Radio in early 2014. Benedict Kloeckner has been studying with Martin Ostertag at the Hochschule fur Musik, Karlsruhe since 2002, as well as with Frans Helmerson in the Kronberg Academy Masters Program since October 2009. Thanks to a loan by L-Bank Baden W\u00fcrttemberg, he plays a 1720 Petrus Guaneri cello. Blake and Kloeckner opened their programme with Pennillion for cello and piano op 525a a version for cello and piano of a work originally written in 1975 for violin and harp. The work is a set of six imaginative variations on a Welsh-inspired theme. Whilst the Pennillhion had is showy moments, it was in Diversions for cello and piano, op.337a that the real virtuoso display came. In his spoken introduction Howard Blake explained how Diversions had started out as the punning title, Major Diversions on a Minor Theme, for cello and piano. The work was then orchestrated and, under the encouragement of the cellist Maurice Gendron, the piece expanded to include a fearsome cadenza and finale. The work is in seven movements starting with a Prelude and finishing with Sarabande and Cadenza, and Finale Allegro ritmico. The work which springs most to mind is Tchaikovsky's Rocco Variations, though Blake's piece is rather more robust and each movement is very vividly characterised. Blake's style is tonal and through his teacher Howard Ferguson you could hear links to other English composers and Noel Rawsthorne is someone else whose work came to mind. There is a clarity to Blake's writing and, thanks to the involvement of Maurice Gendron, the cello part is a wonderful display for the soloist. Kloeckner played from memory and clearly had a great rapport with Blake. After the interval they played Blake's Jazz Dances for cello and piano, Op.520. These are a group of nine movements each inspired by a modern dance rhythm, but they are by no means pastiches and in many Blake leaves the original far behind. Finally came the Sonata for cello and piano, Op.619 the version for cello of Blake's violin sonata. Again a strongly characterised work, full of big moments and some wonderful themes. In all these Kloeckner played superbly, apparently coping easily with the technical demands of the cello writing. But more than that, he brought a very strong sense of identification with the music, giving strongly powerful performances which went far beyond simply playing the notes. This was brought home in the encore. As a complement to the host, Blake and Kloeckner played the whole of the Diversions for cello and piano, op.337a again! After hearing these performances I can well understand why Kloeckner has won such acclaim in Germany with his programme of Blake's music and I look forward immensely to the recording. Blake has produced a new version of Diversions for cello and string orchestra (which Kloeckner premiered) and I hope that the work is taken up by British ensembles.\t(Back to Top)\nGuardian - Portrait of the artist - Laura Barnett\nPublished by The Guardian\nHoward Blake, composer \u2013 portrait of the artist 'No one ever says: \"You're a composer? Wonderful! Why don't I give you lots of money?\"' I wrote my first composition when I was nine, but I never thought I'd be a composer. It wasn't until I went to the Royal Academy of Music that it occurred to me to study composition \u2013 but I didn't get on so well, so I worked as a session pianist at recording studios like Abbey Road. It was there that I met Bernard Herrmann, showed him a one-movement symphony I'd written, and got a job writing music for The Avengers. After that, I thought perhaps I wasn't such a bad composer after all. Who or what have you sacrificed for your art? My family life hasn't been exactly peaceful. Wives and children don't really like a father who travels all round the world and is always busy. Has The Snowman's runaway success been a blessing or a curse? Both. I get letters from people saying it has seen them through very bad times \u2013 and it's marvellous that it's still played by symphony orchestras everywhere from America to Japan. But the downside is that people think I've never written anything else. Is there an art form you don't relate to? I'm not terribly interested in abstract painting. And I prefer films to most theatre \u2013 although, as I have a show that's been running for almost 15 years, I really shouldn't say that. What one song would work as the soundtrack to your life? Waltz in A Minor by Chopin. My mother used to play it after she thought I'd gone to sleep. I managed, gradually, to learn to play it by ear. It's the first piece I really fell in love with. Which artists do you most admire? Ingmar Bergman, for the way he managed to tackle such difficult subjects in film, and produce an extraordinary body of works that ask you to put as much into watching them as he did into making them. What's the worst thing anyone ever said about you? I have a very long list. One of the funniest was said at a reception at London's Wigmore Hall. I do tend to talk a lot. I was in a big crowd, and suddenly another composer shouted at the top of his voice: \"All you ever do is bloody talk.\" The whole place fell silent. Is fame important to you? Unfortunately, fame is a necessary part of the equipment: in order for people to hear your music, you've got to be known. But I have mixed feelings about it. I was brought up with the very English idea that you should never show off. I've almost had to take evening classes in how to do it. What advice would you give a young composer? Don't give up your day job. And write because you absolutely have to \u2013 but don't expect it to be easy. People don't say: \"How wonderful \u2013 you're a composer. Why don't I give you lots of money?\" How would you like to be remembered? As somebody who tried to write music that would uplift people. Career: Best known for his soundtrack to the 1982 film version of The Snowman. Other film scores include The Duellists and A Month in the Country. The Barber of Neville, an album of his woodwind concertos, is out now, and next Monday he turns 75. Low point: \"In 1998, when my own publisher sued me for every single piece of work I'd ever written. I felt I would die.\" High point: \"Getting a call from the Philharmonia Orchestra in 1990 asking if I'd be interested in writing a piano concerto for Princess Diana.\"\nArranged by Caroline Ansdell\nKonzert der \"Sinfonia K\u00f6nigswinter\" Urauff\u00fchrung in der Scheune K\u00d6NIGSWINTER. Es waren vier Punkte, die f\u00fcr sich sprachen. Punkt eins: Die \"Sinfonia K\u00f6nigswinter\" trat im Rahmen des Beethovenfestes Bonn in der Zehntscheune von Kloster Heisterbach auf. Punkt zwei: Ihr Konzert z\u00e4hlte zum Festival anl\u00e4sslich des 75. Geburtstages von Howard Blake, einem der bekanntesten Komponisten Gro\u00dfbritanniens. Punkt drei: Das Liebhaberorchester war mit Urauff\u00fchrungen Blakes betraut, und der ber\u00fchmte Mann sa\u00df dabei sogar selbst am Fl\u00fcgel. Und schlie\u00dflich Punkt vier: Mit Benedict Kl\u00f6ckner hatte die \"Sinfonia\" einen jungen Cellisten von Weltklasse f\u00fcr diese Veranstaltung gewinnen k\u00f6nnen, der als Solist mit renommierten Orchestern spielt und als Kammermusiker zum Beispiel mit Anne-Sophie Mutter auf Tournee geht. Es wurde ein Ereignis, das sich auch Musikdirektor Kurt B. Wirtz nicht entgehen lie\u00df. 1952 hatte er die \"Sinfonia\" als Kammerorchester Oberpleis gegr\u00fcndet und \u00fcber 40 Jahre gelenkt. Nun war er begeistert von der Entwicklung dieses Klangk\u00f6rpers, der seit einem Jahr von Tobias van de Locht dirigiert wird. Und auch Wirtz erhob sich am Schluss dieses Konzertes, um minutenlang zu applaudieren. Kein Platz in der Zehntscheune blieb frei. Die \"Sinfonia\" hatte weit \u00fcber ihr Stammpublikum hinaus Besucher angezogen. Bei der Zugabe durften sie sich dann an einem der ber\u00fchmtesten Werke Blakes erfreuen: \"The Snowman\", die Musik zum 30 Jahre alten Zeichentrickfilm, bei dem ein Junge Heiligabend mit seinem zum Leben erwachten Schneemann zum Nordpol fliegt, um den Weihnachtsmann zu treffen. \"Abgeflogen\" waren auch die Zuh\u00f6rer in der Zehntscheune - in das Reich der Musik, um hier in bunte und anr\u00fchrende Klangwelten abzutauchen. Bereits der Auftakt mit der Sinfonia Nr. 39 Es-Dur von Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart gelang dem Orchester sehr gut. Das war Warmspielen f\u00fcr Blake und Kl\u00f6ckner auf hohem Niveau. Der Meister sagte danach: \"Ich freue mich, dass ich hier zwei meiner Werke vorstellen und den Klavierpart selbst spielen darf.\" Nahtlos gelang der \"Sinfonia K\u00f6nigswinter\" der Wechsel vom 18. Jahrhundert in die zeitgen\u00f6ssische Musik auf klassischer Basis. Sie boten zun\u00e4chst das St\u00fcck \"Diversions\" in der Fassung f\u00fcr Violoncello, Klavier und Streicher mit acht kurzen S\u00e4tzen dar. Und die Sinfonie Nr. 3 op. 642 \"The Duellists\", die anschlie\u00dfend auf dem Boden von Kloster Heisterbach ihre Urauff\u00fchrung hatte, widmete Komponist Howard Blakes sogar dem gastgebenden Orchester: f\u00fcr die \"Sinfonia\"-Mitglieder ein berauschendes Geschenk. Benedict Kl\u00f6ckner geht in die \"Verl\u00e4ngerung\": Er wird am 29. Oktober, am Tag nach dem 75. Geburtstag, mit dem Jubilar gemeinsam in London das \"Birthday concert Howard Blake\" geben. In der britischen Hauptstadt hatte Blake zum 30. Geburtstag von Prinzessin Diana den Solopart seines eigens zu diesem Anlass komponierten Klavierkonzerts gespielt und anschlie\u00dfend mit der Prinzessin ein Gl\u00e4schen getrunken. Und f\u00fcr Fans der Fernsehserie \"Mit Schirm, Charme und Melone\": Die Musik stammte von Howard Blake. Artikel vom 08.10.2013 Roswitha Oschmann, General Anzeiger Bonn, 8/10/2013\nArranged by Tobias van de Locht\nMUSICAL OPINION JULY 2013\nPublished by Musical Opinion\nArranged by Robert Matthew Walker - Editor Musical Opionion\n''The snowman and all that''\nPublished by Journal of the Robert Farnon Society\n\"THE SNOWMAN\" AND ALL THAT : THE MUSIC OF HOWARD BLAKE By Philip L Scowcroft As I write, the Christmas TV feature \"The Snowman\" is 30 years old; the music for that, comprising not only the song Walking in the Air, but a nigh on 30 minutes sound track (though not for its 2012 Channel 4 sequel, \"The Snowman and the Snowdog\") was by Howard Blake. The composer may have become fed up with being remembered primarily for that, rather as Rachmaninoff was, when asked to play so many times that Prelude. In fact he has produced so many works - upwards of 600 - that it will not be the easiest of tasks to summarise his output. Generally speaking it has an easy, shapely, lyrical feel; although it includes substantial pieces like concertos and a Symphony we may fittingly regard it as \"light music\" in its broader sense. Howard Blake, appointed OBE in 1994, pianist and conductor as well as composer, was born in 1938, in London, although he was brought up in Brighton. He studied at the Royal Academy of Music with Harold Craxton and Howard Ferguson. Evidence of this classical training may be found in his concertos for clarinet, piano (1994, later recorded) and violin and a Symphony in one movement subtitled Impressions of a City. Other orchestral compositions include Concert Dances, A Nursery Rhyme Overture (1987), Heartbeat for tenor saxophone, big band and strings (1982, revised 1989) and a suite for strings entitled A Month in the Country derived from a play; other incidental music (for theatre, TV and film) we can exemplify was for \"The Avengers\" (1968), \"SOS Titanic\", \"Henry V\" (1985), \"The Canterville Ghost\" (1986) and \"The Master Builder \" (1989). His work included a considerable amount of what we may describe as \"light chamber music\": Penillion and a charming Burlesca for violin and piano, Jazz Dances for cello and piano, originally for two pianos; a Piano Quartet; and two deliciously tuneful Trios for respectively, flute, clarinet and piano and piano, violin and cello. Piano solo repertoire (as we have seen, the piano was his primary instrument) includes an appealing Ballade in G Minor, Eight Character Pieces, notably an Andantino in B Minor, and a suite, Party Pieces. Apart from The Snowman, Blake is not unknown to the world of film music. He provided a score for an adaptation of Erskine Childers' classic 1903 novel of secret service, \"The Riddler of the Sands\". His music for \"Agatha\", a film not in the best of taste, about Agatha Christie's notorious disappearance of 1926 was attractive but for some reason was not used. He also wrote music for a TV advertisement for the British Paralympic Association. Blake's portfolio included a children's musical and a large number of solo songs and choral works; we have not space here for even a selection of their titles. It is perhaps a pity that The Snowman overshadows his generally amiable output. It may be, too, that its prolific nature has, as so often happens (and not just in our present day \u2013 think of Telemann!), worked against more than a small proportion of it being performed. But this should not prevent us saluting that output and the pleasure it has given us.

Probably only one other ship has inspired more music (the starship Enterprise, obviously), with the tragic tale of her voyage now a timeless legend. But while James Cameron's Titanic is the most famous, and A Night To Remember considered the best, there was another not half as well-remembered, one which used music to creatively tell the story of the doomed vessel and its passengers. Prepare to climb aboard S.O.S. Titanic. S.O.S. Titanic was a 1979 television movie with an impressive cast, including David Warner, Ian Holm, and Helen Mirren, and equally impressive production values. It's unfortunately been cast into shadow by other adaptations, a choice example being that this premiere release of Howard Blake's score is the first I've ever heard of the film. But if the album is reflective of the film, it's certainly worth tracking down. Now what we have on the album is an interesting mix of score and diegetic source music. Research tells me the film is known for its intriguing treatment of the disaster and the notion of class, with the story being told amidst the 1st, 2nd and 3rd class passenges. This is where the source music comes in, as the narrative movements between the trio are reflected by music, apparently \"historically-correct\". This gives ample opportunity for a diverse range of music, from the waltz from opera Eugene Onegin, a rendition of 'Rule Britannia', and traditional Irish music. You can see how the film would have benefitted from this method of storytelling, with the music being a shorthand for the characters and settings without needing to establish further. It also presents some fine arrangements of traditional material. The score itself is a fine work. It sets out its stall from the main title, a foreboding mix of thick brass and a solemn horn line which could easily be from one of the John Williams' classics such as The Poseidon Adventure or The Towering Inferno. The brass is quite prominent throughout the score, possibly representing the great ship itself. It certainly adds to the atmosphere, with a great deal of tension coming from that section. Of course this eventually gives way to a more emotional colour, such as the brief tragic motif in 'Abandon Ship', or the funereal sound of 'Desolation' (which reprises the line from the main title). Some of the music gets genuinely harrowing, such as the desperation of 'Survivors' or the power of 'The Hit', and while it's absolutely affecting, it never feels forced or cheap. S.O.S. Titanic is a fascinating album, presenting a unique musical interpretation of a tragic disaster. The way it moves through different genres is very creative, and the score is impressively impactful and reverential. Highly recommended. Copyright \u00a9 2013 Lost in The Multiplex.

'For a long time film soundtrack music has been surrounded by a strange double-sided paradox: first, that a good soundtrack should not be heard; second, that a good soundtrack does not exist. This statement is not by made a 'parvenu' but by Signor Gianfranco Plenizio, a cinema composer and conductor who has worked with film directors such as Billy Wilder, Monicelli, Risi, Scola and Fellini. He explains the paradox like this: if we watch a movie and exclaim \"what beautiful music!\" it must mean that it is not such a good soundtrack since it has become more prominent than the movie itself, both its images and its dialogue. If on the other hand a soundtrack is not all that noticeable, it must mean that it has fulfilled its purpose by being subservient to the film and therefore cannot deserve to be listened to as \"pure music\". I am wondering what Howard Blake's opinion is on this! It is thanks to his soundtracks (let's remember for example 'Flash Gordon' and the animated film 'The Snowman') that he has received worldwide fame, whilst at the same time not neglecting to write music for the concert hall and chamber music. In which genre is he a real composer? In which is he a real musician? I would say in both, taking into consideration that his purest music, the concert music, has all the descriptive and communicating abilities and skills which has made him celebrated in the sphere of cinema. With his diatonic and tonal language he contributes a clear representation of our present-day complexity without being in any way \"retro'\". Modest Moussorgsky wouldn't have understood this musical dilemma surrounding soundtracks, having lived many years before cinema was invented. However it is most likely that he would have appreciated knowing that in the 20th century he would have increased his celebrity with the use of his music in the animated Walt Disney movie \"Fantasia\" which in the 1940s gave colour and soul to one of his most beautiful classical works, the terrifying evocation of the 'witches sabbath' portrayed in his tone-poem 'A night on the bare mountain.' Dmitri Shostakovich on the other hand did not like cinema. According to his memoirs he appears to have genuinely disliked it. This strong dislike is quite surprising if we take into consideration the 36 movie scores which he wrote during his career... (Vladimir Ashkenazy in discussion with Zeno Gabaglio, March 2013 - translated from the Italian)\t(Back to Top)\nHoward Blake Labels: CCC, classical music, contemporary music British composer Howard Blake is this subject of the Consonant Classical Challenge for this week. Blake is a respected composer both in the fields of classical and film music. He writes in a post-romantic idiom that has a strong English flavor to it.His composition \"Walking on Air\" from the animated short \"The Snowman\" is his best-know work. To many, it's his only known work. The song is well-crafted, and quite appealing. But if you listen carefully, there's more going on here than just pretty music-making. Blake infuses the song with an undercurrent of unrest, which gives it more emotional depth. I think perhaps its one of the reasons to song has remained so popular since its release in 1982. Blake's classical compositions are just a solidly constructed. His clarinet concerto sounds somewhat like Gerald Finzi's in terms of its Englishness, but the harmonies are little more aggressive. While still a quite attractive work, there's enough substance to reward the careful listener. Speech after long Silence, for solo piano is another work that has more going on under the surface. A casual listener will her the flowing chords and pop-inflected turns of the melody and feel quite at home. An active listener will take the title into account, and hear a carefully constructed elegiac work instead. Blake is first and foremost a melodist. It's his strength as a film composer, and it gives his classical music an instant accessibility. His flute quartet is a good example of that talent. The melodies are attractive and memorable. Although \"Walking on Air\" gets plenty of performances, there are many other works by Blake that should be well-received by concert audiences. Although his movie scores could be used in pops programs alongside those of John Williams and Howard Shore, there's more to Blake's catalog than just a collection of music cues. His classical works might not be considered proper academic fare, but they were written to communicate with the listener -- which is not a bad thing, I think.\t(Back to Top)\nTelegraph.co.uk Saturday 05 January 2013 A seasonal hit can really lay a musician low Howard Blake has written an oratorio and numerous concertos,but you don't hear them on Radio 3 Plaintive tunes: 'The Snowman' is a Christmas staple Photo: REX FEATURES By Michael White 7:00PM GMT 15 Dec 2012 Christmas is a time of giving but, as we all know, some get given more than others; and in the world of music there\u2019s a sub-category of composers on whom Santa smiles with extra benevolence every December as they hang their stockings up and watch the cash roll in. I\u2019m not referring here to pop composers or whoever penned those diehard crooner-tunes dreaming for Christmas to be white with chestnuts on an open fire. I mean a group of serious composers who got lucky \u2013 sometimes very lucky \u2013 with successful ventures into Yuletide music that turned out to beat Bing Crosby at his own game. They\u2019re an interesting group in that their popularity has pushed them to the edges of the pukka concert-music circuit they would otherwise belong to. Which they usually regret. And that they\u2019re richer than the average \u201crespected\u201d figure in contemporary music is no compensation \u2013 although it\u2019s probably some kind of comfort. An example is Howard Blake, whose music for The Snowman ranks among those plaintive tunes that issue at this time of year from supermarkets, shopping malls and any public space with a pretence to seasonality. The Snowman has appeared on TV every Christmas since it launched in 1982. And Blake has made the most of it, recycling his score into symphonic concert versions, stage shows, ballets, string quartet arrangements, solos for guitar, violin, piano\u2026 Then there are the spin-offs: cover versions by Cliff Richard, male voice choirs and heavy metal bands. Plus all the licences for advertising. The Snowman\u2019s music has sold everything from postal services in Ireland to ice cream in South Korea \u2013 although Blake once told me that he did occasionally draw a line: he\u2019d turned down applications to use Walking in the Air for condom ads and porn films \u201cbecause when you create something you love you have to protect it from the worst excesses. And I do actually love it. But at the same time he calls it \u201ca pain in the a--e that I wish someone would take away. Not least when people ask, as they do, 'Have you written anything else?\u2019\u2009\u201d In fact, he\u2019s written a lot else: some 600 works including an oratorio, Benedictus, that\u2019s a mainstay of the non-medicinally modern choral repertory, a violin concerto, a clarinet concerto, and a piano concerto commissioned for the 30th birthday of Princess Diana. There\u2019s a letter from the Princess, framed, on Howard Blake\u2019s wall. It says she liked it. Many others liked it too. But do you hear it played on Radio 3?

So many will be bitterly disappointed that the eagerly awaited sequel to classic festive film The Snowman does not include any version of its haunting original theme, Walking in the Air. But none were more shocked than the song\u2019s acclaimed composer Howard Blake \u2013 whose score sold over a million copies \u2013 after he was told that if he wanted to write any music for the new version he would have to submit a demo tape for consideration alongside scores of other budding musicians. Yesterday Mr Blake said the only song he had so far heard from the sequel, The Snowman and The Snowdog, sounded like \u2018X Factor style pop\u2019 which he feared would \u2018upset\u2019 fans of the first film. He said: \u2018There are some people who watch The Snowman every year with their whole family, so to them it is something almost sacred. \u2018It\u2019s an icon that is part of the entire English Christmas. It really holds a very dear place in people\u2019s hearts. \u2018I don\u2019t know what the new film is going to be like, but we presume it will have a pop type track on it so it will be a very different type of thing from everything to do with The Snowman so far over the last 30 years.\u2019 He added: \u2018I don\u2019t think it can be a proper sequel without some version of Walking in the Air. \u2018It could be song by a completely different voice, it could be updated. \u2018But it\u2019s so much part of The Snowman that people will be expecting it.\u2019 Mr Blake, 74, wrote Walking in the Air in 1970 on a beach in Cornwall after escaping from London where the pressures of a massive workload had driven him to a near breakdown. It wasn\u2019t until over a decade later when he was shown plans for the film of The Snowman that he realised he had the perfect musical accompaniment. In the 1982 film, based on the book by Raymond Briggs, the song accompanies a sequence as the boy and snowman glide over the countryside. In the sequel, the snowdog joins them as they fly across London before heading for the North Pole, over a new soundtrack written and recorded by former Razorlight drummer Andy Burrows and British composer Ilan Eshkeri. Mr Blake said that after being belatedly told about the new film his assistant approached the show\u2019s producer, Camilla Deakin, to ask if she wanted him to write any music for it. \u2018She said if you care to submit a demo, we\u2019re asking anyone who can write music to send in demos for our consideration. It\u2019s unbelievable. \u2018I wrote a very polite letter saying I don\u2019t do demos but if you would like me to come and look at the script you are proposing I could let you know if I might be interested in composing a score for it. \u2018I never had a reply\u2026 That is extremely offensive.\u2019 Mr Blake said he was also upset because in publicity for the sequel distributed by Channel 4 billed at as being made by \u2018the team behind the original film\u2019. He said: \u2018It\u2019s not true, because the original team included me, the person who wrote the score, and Dianne Jackson, who directed the film. \u2018Dianne added the sequence when they fly to the North Pole and meet Father Christmas, which was not in the original book and is one of the best loves parts of the film. \u2018Dianne, who was a dear friend of mine, died at the age of 50 from cancer in 1992. \u2018So to say it\u2019s the \u2018original team\u2019 is a bit of an affront to the memory of Dianne. \u2018They should have just said this is a new team making a new film and given it a new title without \u2018snowman\u2019 in it.\u2019 Mr Blake said he was also disappointed that Raymond Biggs has constantly said that he doesn\u2019t like the music from the original. He said: \u2018He\u2019s perfectly happy to collect the royalties from numerous sources for thirty years. So I think he protests a bit too much about it.\u2019 Walking in the Air was originally sung by St Paul's Cathedral choirboy Peter Auty. A single version sung by Welsh chorister Aled Jones released three years later reached Number 5 in the charts. Burrows has said he tried to write a more \u2018contemporary\u2019 score for the new film, adding: \u2018there's a little bit more of a pop element going on.\u2019 Mr Blake first made his name in the sixties writing scores for TV show The Avengers and his subsequent pieces have include a piano concerto for Diana, Princess of Wales, commissioned by the Philharmonia Orchestra for her birthday in 1991, and the much-loved oratorio Benedictus. He is also one of the creators of long running Snowman stage show which has been seen by 1.5 million people and is playing in 50 cities across the globe this Christmas. One of the first person to see it was Diana, who took William and Harry to it when they were youngsters, and the Beckhams and Sir Paul McCartney and his family have also been to see it in recent years. He said: \u2018It\u2019s a marvellous modern Christmas legend. I think it\u2019s the true legacy to The Snowman.\u2019 t.kelly@dailymail.co.uk end\t(Back to Top)\nHoward Blake at home in west London Photo: Toby Coulson Written by Jessica Salter Howard Blake, 74, is a composer whose pieces include a piano concerto for Diana, Princess of Wales, commissioned by the Philharmonia Orchestra for her birthday in 1991, and the much-loved oratorio Benedictus. But he is best known for writing the words and music for the animated film The Snowman in 1982. A ballet adaptation of this has been performed annually at Sadler\u2019s Wells in London for 15 years, and this year runs until January 6 (sadlerswells.com). In 1994 Blake received the OBE for services to music. He has two grown-up children, Christopher and Catherine, and a son, Robert, 14, with his partner Diane. He lives in west London. Routine I wake up very early \u2013 about 6am. I always make an enormous pot of lemon tea and drink it with biscuits \u2013 that\u2019s my breakfast. I do a bit of yoga, have a shower, and start work at 7am. I go out for lunch at 2pm, come home, have a short snooze, and start work again from 5pm until as late as 2am sometimes.

He professes to be a boring old fart, and I wouldn\u2019t dispute that. But Dianne was wonderful. I was due to go to Brisbane before The Snowman premiered in London.

Violin sculpture Photo:Toby Coulson First job After winning a scholarship to the Royal Academy, I got a job as a projectionist at the National Film Theatre. I was completely crazy about films, and I wanted to make films and write music for films. I was there for two years, it was a great job. Chance meeting One day, in the foyer, I met a friend who I had studied with. She had, by then, married a Russian pianist called Vladimir Ashkenazy, who I had always considered to be the greatest pianist in the world. It was amazing to meet him. He was there because he wanted to watch Ivan the Terrible, because it was banned in Russia, but we weren\u2019t showing it anymore. So I borrowed the film from the library and a 16 mil projector and put on a showing in my flat in Hammersmith. I got beers and crisps and we had a party. Vladimir and I became friends after that. Session man I became a resident pianist at Abbey Road in 1965. I worked in Studio Two with the Beatles \u2013 it was an extraordinary time. This led to film and television work, including The Avengers \u2013 in 1967 the director asked me to take over composing all the scores. I was terrified. After the first day I had only written one minute. But when I had finished, I drove to Elstree and played it. The whole band stood up and clapped and it made me cry. Burn-out After The Avengers I did everything for anyone: commercials, feature films, plays. I\u2019d just got married, and bought an enormous six-storey house in Knightsbridge, but I started to suffer from total exhaustion. I saw an Indian doctor \u2013 he told me I would be dead in five years, and told me to take up meditation. So I drove to Cornwall, rented a shack on the beach, and stayed there for three months. I\u2019d completely lost my way. Innocence When I was on the beach, doing my meditation and trying to stand on my head, this tune came into my head, a tune of perfect innocence. It was the tune to Walking in the Air, but I didn\u2019t know it then. Snowman In 1981 I met the producer John Coates, who recently died. He had this idea for an animated film \u2013 he had music but he didn\u2019t think it was right. I said I could do him a demo in two days\u2019 time. I knew where my song could go. I convinced him that it should be a film without dialogue \u2013 just music. Writing day On a beautiful day in June 1982 I told myself I would write the words to my score. I bought some sandwiches and was going to sit in the park to write it. On the way there, I thought of the phrase \u2018walking in the air\u2019. I got to the park, rented a deckchair, and wrote all the words in one day. I\u2019ve never changed a word of it. NASA The head of NASA emailed me earlier this year \u2013 I didn\u2019t think it was real to start with, I actually almost deleted it \u2013 and asked if they could use Walking in the Air as the soundtrack to a spectacular time lapse aurora videos. The video is amazing, it\u2019s shot from outer space, with this satellite circumnavigating the world. And it has my score. Unbelievable. What greater accolade could you have for a song? Princess Diana I got a call from the president of Philharmonia in 1990. He asked me if I would write a piano concerto for Princess Diana\u2019s 30th birthday the next year. He promised to get an incredible pianist to play it, which I thought was wonderful because I could write anything I liked. But the nearer we got to the date I kept ringing and asking if they had found a pianist because it was a very complicated piece. One day he rang up and said \u2018All the boys in the band say you could play it\u2019. But I hadn\u2019t played for years. I stopped everything else and spent three months learning the piano again. I played at the Festival Hall to a sold out audience to Princess Diana. Afterwards I had a glass of champagne with her and she was absolutely marvellous. Howard Blake meeting Princess Diana. Photo:Toby Coulson Birthday I\u2019m going to be 75 next year and they\u2019re gong to do a festival for me in Dusseldorf. That\u2019s pretty exciting. Opportunities I wrote The Snowman score at a time of terrible turmoil, but the song is about opportunities, if you can stop and take them. I\u2019d always wanted to write a symphony with film \u2013 and that\u2019s exactly what The Snowman is.\t(Back to Top)\nProducer of The Snowman dies aged 85 - BBC News & Arts\nPublished by BBC News Entertainment & Arts\nBBC News - Snowman producer John Coates dies at 85\n'COMPLETE INNOVATION' BBC News - Snowman producer dies aged 85 John Coates will be remembered for his work on the 1968 Beatles animation 'Yellow Submarine' and the 1982 Channel 4 animation 'The Snowman'. \"Composer Howard Blake, who worked extensively with Coates on films such as 'The Snowman', 'Granpa' and 'The Bear', met Coates in New York in 1981. \"He allowed me to go along with my ideas - he let me do the music without any dialogue.

John always believed everything could be sorted out over a good lunch.\"\t(Back to Top)\nThe Snowman by C.Michael Kelly\nPublished by Immaculata\nThe Snowman, op. 323 Howard Blake (b. 1938) Although Howard Blake is a complete musician (performer, conductor and composer), and has completed approximately 500 works to which he assigned an opus number, his greatest successes are probably for his film music. His score for The Snowman was nominated for an Oscar in 1982, and he has been nominated for the British film equivalent for several other scores. He was awarded the top musical award of the Cannes Film Festival, as well as several other international awards, and is a member of the Royal Academy of Music. As perhaps a crowning achievement, he was awarded the Order of the British Empire for his contributions to music. The Snowman is generally thought of as a film for children, but it is full of adult meanings and importance beneath the surface. This arrangement condenses all of the important musical episodes from the film score into a seamless whole, worthy of stand-alone presentation on the orchestral concert-stage.\t(Back to Top)\nby Clare Wiley,23 May 2012, Cinema, Hollywood, Music, US Is music on the silver screen being drowned out? Three composers behind pioneering scores of silent movies speak out. (excerpt) ...the fact that filmmaking is a risky business both creatively and financially, has already led to an environment where music is obscured, hidden away under layers of noise. Howard Blake tired of the system early on. The British composer studied piano and composition at the Royal Academy of Music,and went on to score Ridley Scott\u2019s 1977 The Duellists and Flash Gordon in 1980, among many others. \u2018It\u2019s a very stressful thing, writing scores for films,\u2019 Blake says frankly. \u2018When you work it\u2019s always done under pressure and at high speed: you have to deliver the goods really. In a way it puts enormous restrictions on you as a composer. It\u2019s very much an art of compromise \u2013 sadly so. \u2018That\u2019s why it had such a tremendous feeling to it. Everything appears to come to life by magic\u2019 \u2018I got fed up writing scores where the music was lost or mangled or under dialogue, or disappeared,\u2019 he continues. \u2018This is one of the downsides of being a film composer. You are very much a part of what Bernard Herrmann used to call a mosaic; film is a mosaic art.\u2019 But in 1982 Blake saw a sketch for The Snowman, Raymond Briggs\u2019 dreamlike children\u2019s tale of a Christmas snowman that comes to life. \u2018I thought, this is it, you don\u2019t need any words, you don\u2019t need any sound effects,\u2019 he says. \u2018I put the idea to a producer, saying I\u2019d love to do this, where the music is an equal partner with the images.\u2019 After creating a demo, Blake and his producer then pitched the idea to the newly launched broadcaster, Channel 4, which agreed to make the short. \u2018I wrote the complete score, then recorded the complete soundtrack. So the animators were drawing the film to the score. That\u2019s why it had such a tremendous feeling to it. Everything appears to come to life by magic. It\u2019s the exact opposite to how films are usually written.\u2019 But as cinema moved on, the silent genius of The Snowman was left behind, and Blake gradually turned to creating scores for ballet and stage productions. There were fewer and fewer films that truly put music in the spotlight \u2013 until The Artist....\t(Back to Top)\nIt's that time of the year again' - by Stuart Higgins - Christmas 2011\nPublished by PRS magazine\nIt\u2019s that time of the year again, mistletoe in the office, boozy Christmas parties, piped seasonal tunes in the shops and the humming of Walking In the Air from The Snowman, writes Stuart Higgins. With its wonderfully uplifting music and lyrics, Howard Blake\u2019s Walking In the Air raises our spirits, melts our hearts and momentarily transports us to another world devoid of economic doom and gloom. This year marks the 30th anniversary of its demo in a small Charlotte Street film studio. Blake says he \u2018heard\u2019 the tune as he walked gloomily across Perranporth beach, Cornwall in 1970 during a reassessment of his life and career. The enduring and mesmerising appeal and success of the music, the words, the film and even the stage show \u2013 is now in its record-breaking 14th year at Sadler\u2019s Wells Peacock Theatre in London \u2013 is a matter of enormous personal pride. \u2018I am often asked whether I feel The Snowman has typecast me and I have to admit that, of course it has. It\u2019s like a big placard around my neck saying \u201cSnowman\u201d, says Howard, now aged 73, from his artist\u2019s studio home in London\u2019s Kensington Square. \u2018I have written so much other music that I am equally proud of, but I suppose it is much better than being recognised for something which I am not proud of. I cannot possibly complain about the success it has brought me.\u2019 The Snowman film poster, 1982 His vivid recollections of difficult times as a classical music student are a far cry from the global fame he now enjoys. He is forthright and candid in his views and pleased to give advice to budding composers and writers. \u2018I am a composer,\u2019 he asserts robustly. \u2018I am not a songwriter. Because the musical world has been so massively hijacked by big business we tend to see the single pop song as the all-important unit. But there is so much more to music than that, and while I have always taken a wide interest in every sort of music whatever its origins, the wonderful possibilities of extended music, of concertos and symphonies and opera and ballet and film and instrumental music in all its myriad forms \u2013 this is what I am interested in and what I both listen to and continually attempt to create.\u2019 Blake started playing the piano aged six and liked to pick out tunes by ear, having a gift for music from an early age. \u2018I sang in the church choir and took lead parts at school in Gilbert and Sullivan operas. I was also assistant organist at the parish church.\u2019 He wrote his first extended piece of music aged 12; a march in D major. \u2018My local piano teacher didn\u2019t believe I\u2019d written it but then he took my under his wing and undertook to teach me harmony and counterpoint. I think I was very fortunate to receive that grounding so young.\u2019 In 1957, at 18, he won a scholarship to the Royal Academy of Music as a classical concert pianist, taking serious composition as a second study. In his first term he composed an ambitious tonal piano work called Variations on a theme of Bartok, which was very well received by his professors. But the climate of opinion suddenly shifted in that year towards atonal music and this outlook started to actively discourage the writing of melodic music. Blake found it difficult to fit in and began to turn towards the idea of writing music for films, which seemed to offer far more freedom of style and expression. His musical head was turned one day when he watched the film The Battleship Potemkin. \u2018I was knocked out by the combination of image and orchestra. It was an overwhelming emotion which made me want to study it as an art form, but no course of such study existed at that time.\u2019 Leaving college in 1960 not knowing how he might achieve his aims he saw an Evening Standard advert for a projectionist at the National Film Theatre (NFT) and applied for the job. This allowed him not only to make a living but to see and study all the great films and listen to their music. He was also able to make his own film and write the music and this was shown at the NFT while he was still worked there. After two years he needed to move on. He had had great exposure to film and film soundtracks but began to greatly miss playing. \u2018I was 23 years old and I decided that I wanted to play music and if I was going to do that perhaps I should just start at the very bottom. I got a job playing piano at a pub off the Edgeware Road in London called The Lord Chancellor. It was the best thing I ever did, despite someone emptying a pint of beer over my head one night because I couldn\u2019t play the tunes they wanted me to, like Sinatra or the Top Ten. I learnt about audience reaction and participation! Blake and quintet rehearse The Snowman at Sadler's Wells, 2011 \u2018In order to play the tunes they wanted I learned ten or so a day and the pub became so popular the police had to be called one night because the pub was so busy. I met a drummer who knew a nightclub in Bayswater so we played pop in the pub until 11pm and then went to the nightclub to play jazz.\u2019 One night he was discovered by an EMI talent scout and whisked off to become staff pianist at the famous Abbey Road studios and work alongside the famous four, Rolling Stones, Cliff Richard and Tom Jones. \u2018What happened in the 60s was a phenomenon, you couldn\u2019t go anywhere without hearing The Beatles, into a shop on a bus or anywhere and I had to think seriously about whether I should be writing two and a half minute pop songs because that was the unit of currency and I had a go at it. I wasn\u2019t very good at it! I started to discover that, apart from Bill Evans and Miles Davis, I much preferred Beethoven, Tchaikovsky and Prokofiev \u2013 music that flowed for an hour not a formula with a guitar, bass guitar and set of drums. All music has its place but that wasn\u2019t for me.\u2019 But playing piano at Abbey Road led Howard also to play for film and television recordings. He played on the hugely successful Avengers series for Laurie Johnson who one day in 1967 asked if he would take over scoring the whole show. This led to an immensely busy period as both composer and conductor on projects up until 1970. \u2018I was staggeringly busy,\u2019 he remembers, \u2018but even though I was now making a lot of money from all of this commercial media work I still hadn\u2019t really found a way of writing the music that I felt was inside me and which I more and more wanted to write. This started to produce serious tensions and I started to become ill. A doctor advised me that I must take time off and I decided then and that I must in some way re-evaluate my life. I drove off to the farthest point I could think of away from London and rented a tiny beach hut near Perranporth beach in Cornwall. It was here that the embryo of The Snowman showed first signs of birth. \u2018I was rethinking and reassessing my career and this tune came into my head and my mind. Its voice was all about innocence and purity and was something different,\u2019 he said. \u2018This was the inspiration for what was to become The Snowman but it took another 11 years to be born \u2013 perhaps the longest gestation period in history for a tune to come to life? \u2018In Autumn 1981 I went to the studios of an animated film company called TVC run by a man called John Coates and he showed me an animation; an eight minute filmed pencil sketch of The Snowman. John had had a temporary track added but felt it wasn\u2019t right. He asked if I would look at it. It included the boy flying with the snowman and the moment I saw it I said, \u201cYou could make a film without dialogue where the music is the entire script\u201d. John wasn\u2019t sure at all about this so I said I would make a demo, adding that I happened to have a tune that would be perfect.\u2019 \u2018Several days later I recorded the eight minutes of film on piano, which included the whole of what was to be Walking In the Air. Some sort of synchronicity was in the air. The film was made by Channel Four for Christmas 1982.\u2019 His income through PRS for Music has risen dramatically through the success of The Snowman but he adds: \u2018It is played and performed in every country and I only really know when I see the read-outs of royalties from PRS for Music four times a year. \u2018But I also have a huge catalogue of music on top of that with 65 cinema and TV films contributing to a current total of 633 titles and counting. Of course some of the money doesn\u2019t filter through for years and some of it may be for a very small amount \u2013 0.0265p from Patagonia!\u2019 Howard has a strong recollection of his first ever PRS for Music royalty cheque: \u2018I had this lovely girlfriend in Brighton and she told me, \u201cYou are never going to make any money from music,\u201d and in 1958 I got a cheque for \u00a37 and you can imagine I was thrilled to bits and I wanted to put it in the bank but thought I should treat my sceptical girlfriend to a slap-up dinner. We had the dinner but when I showed her the cheque she laughed and pointed out that it was only for seven shillings not \u00a37 \u2013 I was distraught at the time but I laugh about it now.\u2019 We also asked Howard Blake some specific questions: Why do you think The Snowman has become such an institution? I think it\u2019s because it\u2019s neither pop or classical. It\u2019s both. It has its roots in popular culture. The whole idea is about transcending, it\u2019s about love and opening the world of imagination and it appeals to many different people on many different levels. People love to hear the tune because it makes them feel warm. They cheer and they cry when the snowman melts. It unlocks something in people which makes them feel better.\u201d You\u2019ve composed music for orchestras, solo works, film scores, how does your approach to each differ? Music is music. Mozart always wrote to commission. I have always worked on the basis that I should write the best thing I possibly can. I am part of the process whatever the genre. It is a kind of bond between the composer and the public. I am driven to write something that I believe will connect to the public. What are you working on at the moment? I am overseeing the production of The Snowman at the Peacock Theatre at Sadler\u2019s Wells in London. It\u2019s the longest ever running Christmas show with 14 years and we have just committed to another 10 years. There will be 66 performances and I will be overseeing it with a benevolent eye! It is also due to go to Korea and Finland and we have just done the show at the Lowry in Salford, Manchester. Q) Has the way you work changed since you first started composing music? Writing is thinking of music and being able to write it down. I used to always write with a pencil on music paper, but in the 90s computers came in and I was introduced to the Sibelius system where you can write music directly on to the computer and it plays back to you immediately. It was invented by two brothers called Finn and they called it Sibelius because Sibelius was a Finn! I think we are up to Sibelius 7 but I am still on Sibelius 5 which I am happy with. Initially I found it very difficult to write on the computer but it does mean you can write a lot more music and quicker too. It\u2019s a fantastic tool. Are there many opportunities for composers these days? I believe there are lots of opportunities for young composers, more than ever because there are so many production companies, whether it\u2019s TV, radio or film in all different genres. People often say to me, \u2018How do I become famous and successful?\u2019 The truth is that it\u2019s a long hard haul and you have to come up with something within yourself that you really want to hear, in the hope that others will want to hear it too. You have to identify that and then market that and if you are determined to do it you will find time to do it because it\u2019s important to you, even if you are doing another job at the same time. I have lost friends because they become envious. I used to love to meet up with other composers but the truth is that many find it very difficult to make a living out of music. They say, \u2018It\u2019s all right for you\u2019 but I have worked very hard for what I have achieved. I know it\u2019s not easy but you have to be determined and persistent to succeed, very much like anything else in life.\t(Back to Top)\nHOWARD BLAKE TELLS THE SNOWMAN STORY\nPublished by PRS for MUSIC on-line magazine\n'How The Snowman found his song' - Tim Masters - BBC News & Arts\nBBC News Entertainment & Arts How the Snowman found his song By Tim Masters Entertainment correspondent, BBC News. In a triple-glazed apartment, a snowball's throw from the hustle and bustle of Kensington, composer Howard Blake relishes the sound of silence. Here he finds the solitude he needs to write musical scores like The Snowman, which includes Walking In The Air - one of the best-known Christmas anthems of modern times. \"My whole life has been music,\" says Blake, casting an eye over the grand piano that sits in the corner of the room. \"The downside of writing something as iconic as The Snowman is that people tend to think you've never done anything else.\" I was writing a horror film during the day and The Snowman during the evening - I've never told anybody that! The Snowman, the short animated film based on the children's book by Raymond Briggs, has been a seasonal fixture on TV since it first aired on Channel 4 in 1982. It has no dialogue, except for the lyrics of Walking In The Air. \"I'd always had a theory that you could make a film with no dialogue, make the music the dialogue,\" says Blake. He describes the circumstances around getting The Snowman job as \"synchronicity\". Blake happened to be in the right pace at the right time - in this case a cartoon office in London's Charlotte Street - near the headquarters of the newly-launched Channel 4. Having been shown some footage, Blake realised he already had an unused song idea from years back that would fit. He made a demo and it was commissioned. Blake was actually working on another film at the time: Tony Scott's erotic vampire tale, The Hunger, starring Catherine Deneuve, Susan Sarandon and David Bowie. \"It was unusual in that I was finding classical music to re-record,\" recalls Blake. \"I found big chunks of Bach and Schubert, and the opera Lakme by Delibes. Howard Blake Howard Blake's works include a piano concerto commissioned for the 30th birthday of Princess Diana in 1991 \"Right in the middle of The Hunger I got the call that they'd got the money for The Snowman: 'Can you start immediately?' \"So I was writing a horror film during the day and The Snowman during the evening - two things more different you can't imagine.\" He pauses, and then adds with a laugh: \"I've never told anybody that!\" Blake learned the craft of writing music to animation from his work on TV commercials in the 1960s and 70s. He was a regular collaborator with Ridley Scott - the future director of Alien, Blade Runner, Gladiator and Robin Hood. \"We did an advert for SR toothpaste,\" he recalls. \"When Ridley came to do The Duellists - his first feature film which is a masterpiece - he asked if I would write the score. That's how one thing can lead to another.\" Blake studied piano and composition for three years, after receiving a scholarship to the Royal Academy in London. But he admits he was \"crazy about film\" while a student. It led to a job as an assistant projectionist at the National Film Theatre, which Blake saw advertised in the Evening Standard. \"I thought - I've got to do this, I'll be up to my neck in great films. I got the job and I did it for about two-and-a-half years. \"I saw Citizen Kane 25 times - famous directors would come and give lectures. Fritz Lang came there, and Jean Renoir - and very often we'd make them tea up in the projectionist's box.\" Afterwards, Blake had a successful stint as a session musician, working with artists including Cliff Richard, Tom Jones, Shirley Bassey and Cilla Black. In the mid-60s, Blake progressed to playing for film and TV. He names Quincy Jones and Henry Mancini among his mentors. Blake's other film scores include Flash Gordon (1980), Amityville 3D (1983), A Month in the Country (1987) and My Life So Far (1999). The Snowman stage show The live show has been performed all over the world He estimates he has written some 650 works, including pieces for orchestra, ballet and opera. In 1994 he received an OBE for services to music. But it is The Snowman that has been Blake's biggest success - one that he has been asked to revisit over the years. \"The Snowman I didn't see originally as being a big job,\" admits Blake. \"It's a very sparse score and there's a lot of space in it. Almost every piece of music expresses some emotion or movement. \"It proved to be a very fertile ground to develop. You could take any one of of the motifs and develop them into something symphonic. It really has evolved.\" The Snowman's evolution includes a full-length ballet, which has become an annual Christmas season for Sadler's Wells at London's Peacock Theatre. But does Blake - with his vast body of other work - see The Snowman as some kind of albatross? \"It is an albatross in some ways. People have heard of The Snowman much more quickly than they've heard of Howard Blake. That is an odd situation. \"But it hasn't stopped my writing in many other genres. In a way it's financed my ability to write other music. I would like more recognition for things like my piano concerto or choral works - but they are happening. \"I just like writing music. I do my best with them. It's a delight when something works. You can can complain about being a failure, but I don't think I'm in a position to complain about being successful.\"\t(Back to Top)\nEdinburgh Quartet, Spieltrieb\nPublished by Andy Gill, The Independent\nReview of the Naxos CD released June 26 2011: Howard Blake is best known for his film and ballet scores, several of which are included here as revised suites to accompany the newly-commisioned Spieltrieb. His music for the 1986 film A Month in the Country about recovering Great War casualties, is gently pastoral until darkness falls with the mix of pathos and terror in the third movement Elegy in stark contrast to the langorous sensuality of his ballet suite Leda and the Swan and the wistful Walking in the Air from The Snowman. There are affinities with, variously, Arvo Paart, Bernard Herrmann and Beethoven, and a successsion of emotionally-involving themes are skilfully negotiated by the Edinburgh Quartet.\nArranged by Karen Pitchford\nLETTER TO THE BRIGHTON GREEN PARTY\nPublished by Evening Argus\nWhat on earth are Green thinking of? Green IS music and I thought I was in favour of Green. Music is the sound of nature and peace and eternity. I am now sometimes described as a world-famous composer (certainly with The Snowman, the rest perhaps when I'm dead). I learntto be a pianist, composer and conductor in Brighton. My knowledge of classical music came from the free Brighton record library in the early fifties. Also from having a free pass to the BPO rehearsals in the Dome and going on a free school trip to Glyndebourne. I acted at the free Downs primary school, won the 11-plus to the free Brighton Grammar School, where I sang lead roles in G and S and later got distinction in S-level Music.My Brighton piano teacher Christine Pembridge coached me to win the scholarship to the Royal Academy for piano and composition and I was supported by a university grant. This led to my lifelong professional music career. My first recognition as a composer came from winning the composition class at The Brighton Competitive musical festival in 1958. Brighton is famous throughout the world for its music. To remove assistance would be a devastating blow. I have always been immensely grateful to Brighton, since without it, as a composer I probably would have never existed. HOWARD BLAKE OBE FRAM (Composer).\t(Back to Top)\nPublished by All media guide,LLC\nHoward Blake: Violin Sonata; Piano Quartet Compact Disc Naxos November 18, 2008 British composer Howard Blake is known in his native country for film scores, including that for the short animated feature The Snowman (1982). Even by that time, however, he had begun to cut back on writing film and television music in favor of concert pieces at a time hardly congenial for his conservative style. An intriguing feature of the chamber music presented here is that three of the four works are revised versions of works written in the mid-'70s; the fourth dates from 1974 and is presented in a recording made in that year. That recording sounds sonically out of place, but this little-known music -- all the pieces are world premieres -- is a nice find. Blake can certainly be classed with the neo-Romantics. Reportedly he was initially surprised to be compared with Dvor\u00e1k, but here, in his own booklet notes, he quotes a critic who makes the comparison. Like that of his model, Blake's version of Romanticism avoids sentimentality and heavily relies on rhythmic interest. Blake excels in short forms. The Penillion for violin and piano, Op. 571, is a startlingly concise variation set (a penillion is a Welsh oral tradition of improvised verses), and perhaps the highlight of the whole disc is the group of Jazz Dances for violin and piano, Op. 520a. Originally written for two pianos and arriving in the current version via one for cello, these dances are not jazz in the Gershwin sense, but subtle rhythmic tweaks of popular rhythms that go beyond jazz to tango (Slow Ragtime, track 17) and even medium rock, which makes something consistently absorbing out of the simplest of rhythms. The larger works are closer to the Dvor\u00e1k models, with vigorous dance themes overlaid with hints of chromaticism. A pleasing group of works for those who enjoy the new Romantic sound.

May-July 2008, Potton Hall, Suffolk and October 1974, Conway hall, London (Piano Quartet) NAXOS 8.572083 [74:15] Howard Blake\u2019s Violin Sonata opens vibrantly but its poignant second subject alerts one to more sorrowful intimations, ones that are to recur as the sonata develops. Songfully lyric, it also embraces \u2013 in its slow movement \u2013 regretful intimacy. But Blake ensures that this is balanced by a more assertive and pained contrasting section before chimes usher in the tolling, elegiac reverie, one that ends on a sustained violin note. We are whisked away from this by the finale that freewheels virtuosically with the unabashed panache of a New Orleans funeral band returning from the graveside \u2013 but, again, not before some shimmering writing reflects on earlier material, recognising the skull beneath the skin, the loss in the laughter. It\u2019s only when one reads that the work was dedicated to a sonata partner colleague of Blake\u2019s, that splendid musician, the late Miles Baster \u2013 a prominent student of Albert Sammons and first violin of the Edinburgh String Quartet \u2013 that one realises the depths of utterance here. Blake hopes that Baster would have approved. Assuredly so, one thinks. This is a splendid work \u2013 at once, one senses, a violin treatise in expressivity and virtuosity, and also a subtle portrait of the impress of a lamented friend. The Piano Quartet Op.179 is the other big work here, and it opens with Toreador brio. The corporate sonority of the group is absolutely splendid and conveys Blake\u2019s music with total dedication. This actually is something of an anomalous recording, given that it was made back in 1974 in the Conway Hall with that arch-inspirer of a number of Blake\u2019s chamber works, Jack Rothstein, leading the ensemble. The confident Scherzo carries on the extroversion with a cello pizzicato episode taken up by the piano in imitative drollery. There\u2019s a classical formality about the writing and a winning generosity of spirit. There\u2019s also a bell toll in the slow movement but it\u2019s very different from the lament to Miles Baster in the sonata. Instead the lyricism is warm, unhurried and uncloying. Joie de vivre drives on the finale, with its \u2018stand up straight\u2019 fugato and brief folkloric hints. This is another really enjoyable work, unashamed in its generosity. There are hints of Copland in the Jazz Dances for violin and piano but in the main these genial, atmospheric little pieces steer clear of anything too serious; they\u2019re more dance-patterned than jazzy in any case: no Stuff Smith moments here. But do sample the witty Boogie movement \u2013 good fun. Penillion exists in variant instrumentation and is a theme and variations. Here it\u2019s for violin and piano but there\u2019s a bardic version for flute and harp. The violin version brings out the pseudo-Romanian/Carpathian qualities of it \u2013 lovely tumbling trills, plenty of badinage, a ghostly fifth variation, and a wistful close. Madeleine Mitchell has assumed the Baster-Rothstein place in Blake\u2019s violinistic firmament, and bravo to that, as she is a marvellously communicative and virtuosic performer and plays with great sympathy. The composer himself accompanies throughout and with brio, reflection and delight. The recording locations \u2013 Potton Hall now, Conway Hall then \u2013 are admirable. So is this disc.

DDD NAXOS 8.572453 [76:25] The British have long had a tradition of choral singing. By the turn of the 19th century into the 20th century there were choral festivals all over the country. The Leeds Triennial and the Three Choirs remain the best known and indigenous composers wrote prolifically for the amateur singers. And what a line of composition it is: Elgar, Stanford and Parry wrote innumerable works for chorus and orchestra. More recently we\u2019ve had Peter Racine Fricker\u2019s A Vision Of Judgement and David Blake\u2019s Lumina (a superb work which has been unfairly neglected) (both for Leeds), and John McCabe\u2019s Voyage, Geoffrey Burgon\u2019s Requiem and Gerard Schurmann\u2019s Piers Plowman (for the Worcester, Hereford and Gloucester meetings of the Three Choirs Festival). The list goes on and on. Now we have Howard Blake\u2019s The Passion of Mary which, put simply, just had to be written. Having set the Stabat Mater, Blake realised that more was needed as he hadn\u2019t said all that he wanted to say, especially, as he realised, there was no setting of the Passion from Mary\u2019s point of view. This work was the outcome. It is firmly of the British school of choral music. We must not forget that Blake, when younger, was a boy chorister and sang in the choir whilst studying at the Royal Academy of Music in London. He took part in a performance of VW\u2019s Sancta Civitas in the presence of the great man himself. The Passion of Mary was given its British premiere at his 70th birthday concert in the Cadogan Hall, in London, in October 2008. It stunned the audience with its fluency, directness and feeling of ecstasy. The effect was spectacular \u2013 overcome with emotion, the audience sat in awe at the end, feeling that applause was, perhaps, not quite right after such an experience. I was there and can attest to that feeling http://www.musicweb-international.com/SandH/2008/Jul-Dec08/blake2810.htm. That performance was of an exceptional quality and some of those performers have been reunited for this recording. Although playing for less than an hour, Blake manages, with the most economic of means, to tell the whole story of Christ, from Mary\u2019s pregnancy to the Crucifixion and after. Following a brief yet intensely effective orchestral prelude, and a bass recitative, the soprano (Mary) sings the Magnificat, to music of high elation. The vocal line flies aloft in a finely judged orchestral setting. The orchestra is used throughout in a most restrained manner and only raises its voice once \u2013 at the time of the Crucifixion - in music of great strength and fury. This is both mystical in feel and magical in conception. Blake\u2019s son sings the small but telling part of Jesus as a child, a wonderful stroke of imagination this, and the tenor takes the part as a man. Throughout there are choruses, recitatives, arias, duets and scenas, all of which follow one another easily and grow out of the argument. One of the most striking moments is when Satan, a suitably oily performance from David Wilson\u2013Johnson, tries to tempt Christ. This is written, save for four urgent chords from the orchestra, as an unaccompanied scene. The work ends with a chorus worthy of Gabrieli, with joyful shouts of Gloria! The words \u201cmasterpiece\u201d and \u201ca work of genius\u201d are bandied about far too easily these days, but here they can be used with confidence for this, surely, is Blake\u2019s masterpiece, and, from a purely musical point of view, it is a work of genius. As my friend, and colleague, Robert Matthew-Walker wrote, \u201cThe Passion of Mary makes an immediate and lasting impact on the attentive listener, and there is no doubting the conviction of the composer and the directness of his musical utterance.\u201d I cannot improve on that. This is superb stuff in a performance which is of the highest quality. I was at the sessions and can confirm the immense amount of work which went into making this recording. Patricia Rozario, whose voice Blake had in his head whilst writing, glows as Mary, making the most of her long scenes, and taking the wide leaps in the vocal line as if they were the easiest things she had ever sung. Considering that the part covers more than two octaves this is, in itself, quite a feat. Richard Edgar\u2013Wilson (Jesus, as a man) sings with an easy fluency and fine diction, displaying a beautiful high G, so soft as to make one gasp. David Wilson\u2013Johnson (as both the Prophet and Satan) is full-voiced and creates both parts with such skill that you\u2019d be hard pushed to realise that it was the same singer. He is especially impressive as Satan as he descends to a low E? in the temptation scene. Last, but by no means least, Robert William Blake (Jesus as a boy) imbues the part with a quiet authority, displaying a beautiful delicacy in his delivery, and a full understanding of the music. London Voices sing with real gravitas \u2013 whether in meditative mode or when screaming for blood. How could they not when they were trained by a man - Terry Edwards - who, I have said this before, is the best choral trainer in London. The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra is with Blake all the way, giving their all, especially when allowed music to themselves. The orchestration is magnificent, with some eloquent moments for the harp. Blake brings out all the voices with great clarity. Michael Ponder\u2019s production is a real asset, for the sound is big, yet even in the loudest episodes everything is clear and precise. There are also passages of such breathtaking pianissimo that one is on the edge of one\u2019s seat. The sound is the best I have ever heard from Naxos. All in all, this is one of the very best CDs it has been my pleasure to hear and report upon. And we haven\u2019t finished, for as a, very generous, coupling we have the Four Songs of the Nativity for chorus and brass. These are delightful settings of texts taken from Mediaeval English Verse (Penguin Books). Although not easy to perform, they make a lovely set of alternative carols if not of the community singing type. Ranging from devotional to racy this work makes a good conclusion to a very special disk. Choirs looking for new repertoire need look no further. Here are two works which can communicate easily and make a real impression on the audience. A very good booklet, with full texts, completes an issue which should be in every collection. This music is far too good to miss. Bob Briggs\t(Back to Top)\nPASSION OF MARY (GAPPLEGATE)\nPublished by GAPPLEGATE REVIEW\nGapplegate Music Review Wednesday, May 12, 2010 Howard Blake: Modern Choral Music from England I first came upon the music of Howard Blake via the soundtrack to the memorable animated film The Snowman. In particular the main theme as sung by boy treble with orchestra really captivated. It was a little like a cross between The Moody Blues's Days of Future Passed and middle-period Keith Jarrett. Hearing it still gives me goose bumps. So when I saw this new Naxos release of Blake in a more \"serious\" concert choral zone, I jumped on the chance to hear and review it. Blake seems like a natural when it comes to vocal-orchestral expression. Everything he writes in these two works (The Passions of Mary; Four Songs of the Nativity) seems to lay out in a kind of idiomatic near-perfection. Howard Blake himself conducts the soloists, the London Voices, and the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra for this recording, which seems definitive. The music falls in a 20th Century tradition of such works by Walton, Vaughn Williams and others similar. That is to say, it uses extended tonal-traditional means to express lyrically the dramatic import of the narrative texts. The Passion of Mary follows a modern oratorio vein; For Songs of the Nativity uses the song form for some memorable Christmas fare. Mr. Blake is a composer of talent. These are some beautiful and moving settings. If you are an Anglophile in matters classical, you will no doubt want this one. I will file it happily on my \"modern English composers\" shelf. That is, when I am not listening to and enjoying it.\t(Back to Top)\nHoward BLAKE (b. 1938) Flute Quintet Op.493 (1996) [18:04] Shakespeare Songs for tenor and string quartet Op.378 (1987) [23:10] Trio for flute, cello and harp Op.559 (1962 re-arranged 2005) [9:04] Farewell My Gentle Harp - for tenor and harp Op.517 (1976 revised 2000) [4:58] Penillion for flute and harp Op.448 (1975 revised 1993) [8:30] Martyn Hill (tenor); English Serenata. rec. October-November 2005, St Lawrence\u2019s Parish Church, Mickleton, Gloucestershire MERIDIAN CDE84553 [63:44] This is a delightful disc, high in opus numbers but also high in quality too. The Flute Quintet dates from 1996 and is cast in four movements. Warm lyricism and avian calls are the index for this, with the flute singing its verdant morning song in the opening Allegro Cantando. After a vibrant Scherzo there\u2019s a lyrically textured slow movement and a light-hearted march finale with some strummed accompanying figures to vary textures. A rather earlier work is the Shakespeare Songs for tenor and string quartet. Blake takes well known songs from As You Like It and Twelfth Night, as well as single songs from Cymbeline, The Tempest and Love\u2019s Labours Lost. The result is a cycle that confounds expectations. None sounds very much like anyone else\u2019s settings. The bucolic old-time settings of, for example, When Icicles hang by the wall is not replicated in Blake\u2019s own setting, nor are there Finzi-esque moments either. Blake paints his words with discreet delicacy, not playing up the \u2018freeze\u2019 in Blow, blow thou winter wind, though he certainly does push the tenor very high in Full fathom five, the more to accentuate its eerie sense of loss. He does so again in Come, away death with the same result - Blake sees things differently from the more baritonal consolations that other have wrought here. If there is an influence, I would sense Britten, especially in When Icicles. The Trio for flute, cello and harp is an arrangement of a 1962 work for flute, clarinet and piano. It survives the transition delightfully. French in orientation, cleanly and clearly lyric, generous in its melodic grace, it is a work of perfectly poised charm. Farewell My Gentle Harp is another vehicle for Martyn Hill, a Gaelic lament and truly lovely. Meanwhile Penillion for flute and harp \u2013 other versions exist \u2013 is inspired by Welsh music, though gently. I\u2019ve heard it in its incarnation for violin and piano, and it\u2019s perhaps not too surprising that this flute and harp version sounds far less \u2018Carpathian\u2019 in one or two of the variations, and rather more sweetly emollient. It ends a beautifully performed and enticing disc. Full praise, then, to Hill, always a most articulate singer, and to the players of the English Serenata for their mellifluous and sensitive playing, to the fine recording and to the booklet with its full texts.

The song Walking in the Air is from that feature. A treatment of this appears in tr. 21 of the ABC Classics Life-Cycle disc but the song was immortalised by the then treble Aled Jones - now a regular on UK Classic FM and BBCTV's Songs of Praise although he was not the singer on the soundtrack. It sold in millions. Blake has written prolifically; there are rising 600 works in his catalogue ranging from major concertos to film music, from opera to small instrumental genre pieces. His musical style is accessible without any ivory tower barriers to appreciation. His teachers included Harold Craxton and Howard Ferguson. Blake is Fellow and Visiting Professor of Composition at The Royal Academy of Music. In 1994 he received the O.B.E. for services to music. Highbridge Music, founded in 1974, exclusively publishes his works. The firm takes its name from Highbridge Mill near Cuckfield in Sussex, a converted watermill dating from 1810 which was the composer\u2019s home from 1971 to 1981. It has been a source of inspiration for many of his musical works. Lifecycle was written in London, Brighton and Cuckfield. The sequence of 24 pieces came about following a conversation with Vladimir Ashkenazy to whom the cycle is dedicated. The music is pleasing; isn't that a large part of the role of music - to please? The titles range from piano stool 'standards' (Berceuse, Romanza, Scherzo, Chaconne, Nocturne) to the less conventional (Make-Believe, Dance of the Hunters, Walking in the Air, Oberon). The shortest plays 0.51 (Jump); the longest 5.16 (Impromptu). Knuckle-breakers such as Scherzo rub up against popular culture fantasies (Rag) and studies that have their roots struck deep into the music of Chopin, Rachmaninov, Medtner and Tchaikovsky. Notables include the Housman bells of Romanza, the rumba flavour and sway of Jump and the riotous faery-flight of Oberon (tr. 23) as well as the placid Make Believe - a transcription of Blake's song for Granpa which was another successful TV feature for Christmas-tide. The cycle is rounded with a soothing sleep. A pleasing disc then: pastime in good quiet company - both Blake's and Chen's. This is music written with an intent and attainment that is playful, sentimental and serious - above all tonal. The Meridian disc presents Howard Blake as celebrant of melody but always grounded in his own very personal embrace with the English tradition. His Flute Quintet declares a no-barriers statement of faith in that good-hearted marriage between joy, melody, pensive asides and solace. Avoiding blandness he spirits the listener away with enchantingly imagined and expressed moods and cheerful merry-eyed delight. Much the same applies to the light-suffused warmth and Gallic impressionism of the Trio for flute, cello and harp. This would go well in the same concert as the Ravel Introduction and Allegro and the Bax Elegiac Trio. The Shakespeare Songs fearlessly confront the English song tradition. The nine songs are subtle and very carefully crafted and shaped. It is notable that although these are quite short, Blake establishes without a falter or a blink his own anterior pacing. Fear No More, Full Fathom Five, Wedding Hymn and Lament inhabit an unhurried world. There are inevitable echoes from Britten yet Blake has more humanity and you may also catch yourself thinking of Geoffrey Bush and to a slight extent Gerald Finzi. Blake addresses these much-set texts without a tremor and with a confidence that does not trample on the words. Classic texts expressed with lucidity, nuance and with a response to their need for emotional release. Martyn Hill takes the colour of every word and reflects and refracts it into the 5 minute song Farewell My Gentle Harp to the anonymous Gaelic poem \u2018The Lament of Rory Dall\u2019. On a similar beautiful downbeat we come to the Penillion for flute and harp. For me the melody - which is limpid and enthralling - does not sound especially Cambrian. It is, however, gracious and utterly delightful. It delivers everything engaging that one would expect from the juxtaposing of flute and harp. The ASV disc of the Violin Concerto has been written about with more insight than I can muster by Ian Lace. It was written for Nigel Kennedy but premiered by Christiane Edinger in Leeds whose city fathers commissioned the piece. It stands in the central pathway of the great English tradition of music for violin and orchestra. At various times its wondrously presented ideas sing out in exultant company with The Lark Ascending and with the concertos of Walton, Elgar and Delius. It is however no pastiche and is deeply affecting in its own right. I only mention these other works to give you some idea of the sound-world. There's a tender Adagio and an Allegro con brio that is chipper, exultantly pointed and light-on-the-feet. This work belongs among my favourite violin concertos alongside Prokofiev 1, the superb Ivanovs, the Sainsbury and the Sibelius. The five movement A Month in the Country began life as the music for a Channel 4 drama. Its plot was about two soldiers returning to the English countryside from the trauma of the Great War. English pastoralism is certainly present in this score as in the Holstian trudge of the Alla marcia and the elegiac Howellsian atmosphere of the first movement which takes on a grimmer mien in the Adagio-Elegy. There\u2019s a lighter Finzian quality in the Scherzando - slower than I might have expected. The Delian concentration of the sighing Andante is also memorable. The Sinfonietta is in four movements and was written for the Philip Jones Brass Ensemble. It is for ten brass instruments and was premiered at the Brighton Festival. It tracks through a world caught between the grandeur of the Venetian Gabriellis and Walton\u2019s kinetic determination. You can hear this in the almost bitter Presto. The Maestoso has an evolutionary, slow-blooming, crowning motion and some superb writing for Jones's trumpet here taken by the trumpet principal of the English Northern Philharmonia. This ASV disc has been around since 1994 and supplies may be difficult to source. It is however well worth the effort. Recently reissued under a new number and with new finery the Sony disc is also deeply rewarding. The Piano Concerto was commissioned by the Philharmonia to celebrate the birthday of Diana, Princess of Wales. The brilliant melodic writing, full of inventive engagement, is redolent of Walton's much underrated Sinfonia Concertante. It has a limpid, straight-talking and beguiling enthralment about it. Echoes of the starry fluency and sincerity of the middle movement of Beethoven\u2019s Emperor come across in the firefly glimmer of the Andante espressivo. The finale combines explosive New York jazziness with a Grainger-like zest. The piece ends with great delicacy and a satisfying blast of fireworks. It is not difficult to appreciate yet is not so easy as to be bland. The eight movements of Diversions are full of wit and enchantment - Maurice Gendron assisted Blake with the editing of the cello part. Once again the composer adroitly times and paces his treatment of intrinsically pleasing and grateful ideas. In some ways this is a modern Rococo Variations but with less bone china and more of a contemporary emotional landscape though nothing is dissonant. There are some lovely conceits here such as the confidingly pattering Serenade but profundity is never far away. The Finale has the cello and orchestra blazing away. Once again the Sony team must be congratulated on a recording balance that is both clear and sensitive to excitement and poetry. It is clear that Blake is drawn to revise his earlier works. His 1977 Toccata, dubbed a \u2018Celebration for orchestra\u2019 has been revisited and spruced up - to what extent we are not told. This extended work has lambent jazzy exultation, searing victorious heat, playful percussion and a humming and shining expectancy which glitters with Arnoldian stars. It's a moving, fragile yet robust fantasy - elegant in its strengths and foot-tapping in its rhythmic Waltonian exaltation. The orchestra give a dazzling account of themselves throughout. Toccata was premiered by the RPO under Hans Vonk in 1976 at the Fairfield Hall, Croydon. The Sony recording is stunning. The late Christopher Palmer provides the notes (from the original issue) with a brief update from the composer. The most recent disc and the one you are likely to encounter easily is the Naxos collection of Blake's chamber music. All four works here began their existence in the period 1973-76. Again Blake is a participant as pianist and as note-writer. The Violin Sonata is in the safe hands of Madeleine Mitchell who is an increasingly familiar presence in British violin music projects and beyond. The Sonata dates from 1973 when it was written for Jack Rothstein. Dissatisfied, Blake rewrote it in 2007 and it is this version we hear now. There are three movements. The first is typically impassioned like RVW's Lark but with a burning fervour. The Lento is at first in uncharacteristically expressionist language but soon evolves, slow-blooming yet passionately lyrical, with the piano becoming increasingly animated. The headlong final Presto soon finds a steady and sternly romantic mood which becomes more florid towards the close. The style is at times quite close to that of the Howells Piano Quartet. The Penillion is the same work that appears on the Meridian anthology - there for flute and harp. It was originally written for violinist Jack Rothstein and Annabel Etkind. Here its eight episodes are helpfully separately tracked. It remains determinedly unWelsh but that hardly matters a whit - it's a most gracious invention with Hungarian and English accents. The four movement Piano Quartet is the biggest work here at approaching half an hour. The vivid and fine analogue recording dates from 1974 and features the original team of the composer, Peter Willison (cello), Jack Rothstein (violin) and Kenneth Essex (viola) - a top-flight ensemble. For all its analogue origins its attractions are irresistible. The language is that of high romance between Dvo\u0159\u00e1k, Schubert and Beethoven. If there is a touch of trilling pastiche about it that is no obstacle to the delightful and ineluctable flow of ideas and treatment. The nine Jazz Dances are a skilled celebration with unblushing fidelity to a range of popular dance forms. Nothing extraordinary here but everything is fresh and warmly engages mind and heart. It recalls Barber's Souvenirs yet without the volcanic climax that marks out the sultry Tango. Sentiment, terpsichore, frictionless seduction and foot-tapping vitality are all there. In addition to these various commercially accessible discs have been fortunate to hear a number of recordings not commonly accessible. I mention them here in the hope that they may encourage companies to record them or reissue existing recordings. The succinct Symphony in one movement op. 42 plays for between 12:14 and 14:30. It opens wistfully in the manner of Constant Lambert\u2019s Music for Orchestra and Blake's own film score for The Riddle of the Sands. Superbly done and very English it is understated, quiet and vernal. There's a touch of RVW's In the Fen Country too. This pastoral flavour gives way to some decidedly American-style syncopation, the verve of which suggests Copland and Bernstein: super-fast pizzicato, finger-snapping kinetic vitality, bluesy swoons and mid-Western exultation. There are quite a few Blake film scores. Two are reflected in a now deleted Airstrip One CD AOD HB02 from 2000. The Duellists is a Ridley Scott film (1977) in which the principals were Harvey Keitel and Keith Carradine with Edward Fox, Robert Stephens and Albert Finney. The session orchestra in this and in The Riddle of the Sands (1978) is Sidney Sax's luxury item ensemble - the National Philharmonic - well known from the RCA Classic Film Scores series. Blake's music for The Duellists includes a series of variations, many darkly inventive (tr. 10), on a plangently stated theme for flute or cor anglais. There are some psychologically oppressive cues drawing somewhat on Herrmann and Schoenberg. Things lighten up for The Chateau (tr. 13). The orchestral principals included Susan Milan (flute) and Alan Civil (horn) with Sax as leader. The score for The Riddle adds a sparingly used choir - in this case the John McCarthy Singers in music that is sweet, discreet and with a redolence of the Brahms Volkslieder. Though set along the Friesian coast the music wistfully evokes the world of Norfolk and the fen country. It is a very strong and certainly beautiful score. Just try the truly magical Sailing where every tickling and singing detail is tellingly invented and performed. A discreet chugging ostinato in the violins counterpoints delicious writing for oboe and for flute. This cue should be tracked down by Classic FM - a wonderfully memorable piece of writing. The music also carries the implication of threat and the smell of fog. Carruthers investigates the Barn suggests that Blake might well have been influenced by the Moeran G minor symphony - then recently issued on EMI (Dilkes) and Lyrita LPs (Boult). It's a wonderful score and stunningly recorded, even in analogue. I've read some pretty sniffy comments about the film. I disagree. It lacks glitz but is beautifully shot and oozes a kind of understated sincerity. The leads are Michael York, Simon MacCorkindale, Jenny Agutter and the greatly underrated Alan Badel. The major choral work that is Benedictus was issued commercially at about the same time as the concertos disc. Sadly it remains banished to deletion limbo. It really should be reissued. One of a series of major choral pieces by Blake, it revels in and extends the English choral tradition. Blake uses the solo viola as interlocutor in the prelude and postlude to frame the three parts and eleven segments. The viola lays bare a pensive and melancholy soul. The original recording is most beautifully done and the music seems to reference the monastery life in which Blake had immersed himself before writing this substantial work. It is however far from ascetic. Blake also articulates the fire in the sky. Robert Tear, who for the most part keeps the vinegar in his voice well under control, is the tenor soloist. The music he is allocated has the sense and feel of Tippett's A Child of our Time. Passion is not far away at any time - try tr. 5 Lord who shall dwell. Seraphically sweet writing carries the How lovely is thy dwelling place although it sometimes finds Tear in effortful mode. The solo viola returns for the start of Part 2 and precedes a setting of Thompson's The Hound of Heaven; a masterful work to the same words by Maurice Jacobson is in clamant need of recording. Blake characterises and colours sensitively at every turn of the poem. Part III starts with more peaceful music to salve the excoriation of I fled him .\u2026 This continues in balm and healing in Suscipe me with just a hint of Delius's Song of the High Hills. Blake finds his kinetic impetus again in Bless the Lord O my soul (tr. 11). The ascetic music of the monastery and the church bells return for Processu (tr. 12) which melts into an enchantingly glimmering diaphanous mist. A golden halo of choral sound fades down to meet the pensive valedictorian that is the viola. Benedictus dates from May 1980 and was first recorded in 1988 on Sony CDHB2. It was commissioned by The Ditchling Choral Society with assistance from The Ralph Vaughan Williams Trust. The premiere was given by Richard Lewis (tenor), Frederick Riddle (viola), The National Philharmonic Orchestra and The Ditchling Choral Society, conducted by Janet Canetty-Clarke at Worth Abbey on 17 May 1980. The premiere of the revised version followed under the baton of Sir David Willcocks at St Albans Cathedral on 25 January 1986. Let\u2019s look forward now to the next Naxos Blake disc. This will include his second dramatic oratorio The Passion Of Mary (for soloists, chorus and orchestra) and Four Songs Of The Nativity (for chorus and brass ensemble).

Amid the hubbub of dissonance and the clamour for constantly renewed novelty for its own sake Howard Blake stands out as an urgently communicative and accessible creative voice.

He composed music for the stage, radio and television, most notably incidental music for several episodes of \"The Avengers\", before establishing a career in film music. This career includes some stints as orchestrator for other composers such as Henry Mancini and a long CV of scores in his own name. His film music constitutes a large part of his overall output, though Blake has not neglected concert pieces having composed concertos for Clarinet, Piano and Violin as well as an oratorio called \"Benedictus\". His name came to prominence in the public eye when he composed the music for a production based on the book \"The Snowman\". This was soon turned into an animated film and \"The Snowman\" is now regularly broadcast on television at Christmas time. The familiar theme tune \"Walking in the Air\" was a big hit for the singer Aled Jones, at that time a boy soprano. The team behind this first animation went on to create others in the same style including \"Grandpa\" and \"The Bear\". Howard Blake even makes a cameo appearance in \"The Bear\" as the pianist at the window, while writer and illustrator Raymond Briggs appears as the smiling face in the moon. For a number of years, Howard Blake played an active role in the Performing Rights Society, and in 1994 he received an OBE for his services to music. Howard Blake has also written pieces for a variety of instruments and combinations. Among several for solo piano is his \"Lifecycle\" which, like Bach's Well-Tempered Clavier and similar works by other composers, is a set of 24 pieces in all the keys including the \"Walking Song\" in A. This is just another example of his inclination towards the classical traditions of music, which is evident in some of his pieces. \"The Snowman\" is now regularly performed as a stage event during the Christmas Season, for example at London's Sadler's Wells Theatre at Christmas 2006. Films by Howard Blake: *An Elephant called Slowly - with the Virginia McKenna/Bill Travers team * The Duellists - historical drama by Ridley Scott * Agatha * The Changeling - the film was scored by Rick Wilkins but Blake supplied the music box theme * Flash (Gordon) - remembered for the songs by Queen, Blake did some arranging and the incidental music for the film, full of lovely synth music which somehow evokes the retro look of the film * The Snowman - the theme song \"Walking in the Air\" was a big hit for boy soprano Aled Jones (though he didn't sing on the original film) * The Lords of Discipline * Amityville 3-D * A Midsummer Night's Dream (1996) * Grandpa - a Snowman follow-on * The Bear - another animation from \"The Snowman\" team and also based on a Raymond Briggs book TV music by Howard Blake: * The Avengers - incidental music for a total of 7 episodes, substituting for the series resident composer Laurie Johnson * Play for Today - the episode called \"Stronger than the Sun\" * BBC2 Playhouse - a couple of episodes of this * S.O.S. Titanic * The Moon Stallion - a children's fantasy series * The Canterbury Ghost The soundtrack to the Snowman starts with the narrated version of the story which makes a great bedtime story for children leading up to Christmas, and is reminiscent of Prokofiev's \"Peter and the Wolf\" story. In addition the CD also has the soundtrack on its own without the narration, and this is great fun music for children of all ages. The Piano Score version of the full film is quite tricky to play, but there are simpler versions of the main theme alone or a suite from the film. The theme song is available in a piano plus vocal arrangement (with guitar chords) from MusicRoom, and if you visit di-arezzo.com and perform a search for \"Snowman\" or \"Howard Blake\" you will find a wealth of school arrangments for many instruments. Howard Blake - music for piano and strings album album cover Blake's \"Lifecycle\" for piano is available from this link at MusicRoom and this link at MusicRoom lists many other pieces for various instruments. His \"Music for Piano and Strings\" listed below is a good example of his concert or chamber music style. The album includes a collection of \"Jazz\" pieces for violin and piano, which like Shostakovich's \"Jazz Suites\" are not true Jazz, but simply lighter less serious works.

Several composers working for the movies and writing for the concert hall have a very critical (sometimes cynical) attitude concerning their own film music (for example, Miklos Rozsa -- you had lunch with -- judged his musical life as a double life). What are your current feelings about \"film music\"? - Howard BLAKE: As a student at the Royal Academy of Music, I studied composition and piano between 1957and 1960 (classical - I toured with a violinist playing Mozart, Bach, Beethoven, Franck, Ravel... etc) on a bourse but became disenchanted with current ideas of 12-tone, serial... I saw Potemkin with an orchestral score at the age of about 19 and decided that the future of art lay in the combination of music and images (film images). I applied to study film rather than music but at that time nobody could understand what I was talking about, and they wanted me to do a course in photography. The University grant people decided I should stay at the RAM, where I did very little. I spent much time at the National Film Theatre and wrote extensively on the philosophy of art/music/cinema etc. After college I got a job at the National Film Theatre... which I loved- I met Jean Renoir, Fritz Lang, Vincente Minelli, Jacques Tati, Orson Welles, Chris Marker- all sorts of people! I made my own 16mm film which I wrote, edited and composed the music for. It was terrible but good enough to be shown in the film theatre as a short with Maltese Falcon- believe it or not! But I realised my gift was music and not script or direction. I was very interested in the fact that film used every sort of music and decided I must learn all sorts. I took jobs in pubs and nightclubs as a pianist playing jazz, pop, rock, latin american... and one night was 'discovered' and asked if I would like to be a recording session pianist working at Abbey Road. I enjoyed this and played with good people: John McLaughlin, Jimmy Page, Tom Jones, Cliff Richard, Sylvie Vartan, Francis Lai... among many. Whilst doing this, I wrote a 12-minute symphony sub-titled 'Impressions of a City' which I wanted to film. However instead I met Bernard Herrmann who thought it was brilliant and asked me to do some arranging and recommended me to Laurie Johnson at Elstree. I played piano and organ on The Avengers and then was asked to take over as composer/musical director, which I did (1967/1968). At the same time, I wrote many commercials for TV (204!), feature films (Some Will Some Won't, Elephant called slowly, All the way up... (...) At that point, I (...) realised I was not doing what I wanted to do. I (...) re-thought the situation, deciding I would try again to write a 'Symphony with Images'. I (...) moved to a watermill in Sussex where I worked at such a thing- but without result. However my composition improved a lot and I began to write 'serious' works as they are called- Piano Quartet, Diversions for cello, Cantata 'Song of St Francois', Benedictus' oratorio. Suddenly all sorts of people wanted me to write: Ridley Scott and David Puttman came to see me for 'The Duellists', Lynn Seymour asked me to compose a ballet for The Queen, The Royal Shakespeare Company asked me to write for the theatre, and Richard Williams asked me to write for animation. But I still hadn't created my own film in which the music drives the images. I gave up the idea (...) and I returned to London to be a 'pen for hire' again, buying my present studio in Kensington in early 1982 to be MD [Musical Director] on 'The Hunger' for Tony Scott. I had just started on this when The Snowman happened. I had seen an 8' pencil animatic in October 1981 and suggested to TVC that one could do a film with no dialogue and had recorded a piano demo. I saw it as the sudden opening of a window onto what I always wanted to do and I took full advantage! Snowman in England has become an icon and is very successfull (platinum disk, top of the pops, TV every Christmas for 24 years, plus stage show, concert versions, etc, etc...). I hoped this would lead to many more things of the sort- open an avenue. It is true that I did two more similar animations (Granpa in 1988 and The Bear in 1998) but they were surrounded by trouble and contractual manoeuvres and therefore hampered, to an extent sabotaged, which is a pity. I have never taken a view like Miklos Rozsa and Bernard Herrmann because I started with a different view. ( I discussed it with them at length when we all had lunch at the Gay Hussar that time). There are many different genres within film and if you are lucky enough to be asked to do one, you should be aware of what it is you have taken on. Of course if you want to make money that is something else. Many of the most interesting things produce no money and many of the most boring produce a lot of money!! I took very much the view of Mozart, that as a composer you must respond to the wishes of the time and do your best possible work in every case. This is not perhaps a typical view and is the exact opposite of Wagner's - but then I like Mozart and I don't like Wagner! At the end of my website biography [http://www.howardblake.com/], there is a note of 'what I believe' from the Encyclopaedia of Contemporary Composers. (...) I think that the 'Symphony with Images' I always dreamt of found a way of being born on STAGE rather than FILM! ...for the problem with film is that it is enmeshed in finance, politics, propaganda, stars and directors with egos needing gigantic streams of money and publicity and flattery...The great art of film with its sister-muse of music which promised such fine possibilities of beauty in the days of European Silent Cinema has been hijacked by book and theatre agents and mass exploitation of lowest human common denominators. If one wants to experiment one has to face up to the fact that one will have to pay for it oneself. And it's expensive. Lastly, it is true I have adapted one or two scores for concert performance -Duellists and Riddle of the Sands at the request of the RPO [Royal Philharmonic Orchestra]. The only ones that work for me are the 3 animation scores. They stand up as music because they were composed as music. Otherwise scores are best heard WITH film because that is what they are designed for. - JFH: You are now a notorious composer, pianist, conductor and musical director. Several years ago, you did some orchestrations a.o. for English film composer Stanley Myers (1933-1993). Can you share some memories about him? - Howard BLAKE: Stanley was a terrific person who helped people and loved music of all sorts ; he was interested in and enthusiastic about everything. He was highly intelligent and had read PPE at Balliol Oxford. I met him in the period when I was still playing in clubs and he had just landed his first TV film, perhaps it was 'Poor Cow' or 'Up the junction', I can't remember... He asked me to play keyboards and I wrote out some funky Jimmy Smith licks. We became great friends and went to many concerts together, from Pink Floyd to Stockhausen, with different girl friends (he had more than anybody I have ever met). I remember going to the Thad Jones/Mel Lewis big band at Ronnie Scott's with Quincy Jones, John Williams the guitarist and Stanley. He often gave dinner parties and invited very interesting people - Jerry Goldsmith one night (who played us a tape of a Cantata he had written) -Roy Budd (who he introduced to everybody) - the great Hollywood arrangers (...) who had worked for Gershwin and argued about the different qualities of a cello A or D-string. I played classical pipe organ at the BBC with jazz rhythm section on 'All Gas and Gaiters'. On 'Kaleidoscope' I played many different instruments as he loved to use many different sounds. That was a big break for him. I loved the funky-sort of waltz of the titles and the very original suspense music with - I think - azikwe xylophone and a harp bass line. I played piano on several different versions of his 'Cavatina', which I remember him writing - the girl in the next studio in Redcliffe Road said to me 'he keeps playing this same tune over and over again it's driving me insane!'. First was on 'The Walking Stick' with David Hemmings, then on 'The Raging Moon' with Brian Forbes before finally on 'Deer Hunter' , which I didn't play on - we were both in Hollywood at that time but working in different studios. John Williams played on all three. I loved 'Michael Kohlhaas' which I went to see with him, and I loved playing on 'Age of Consent' for Michael Powell. I played solo piano at Olympic and James Mason sat next to me, saying he wished he could play the piano! At the start Stanley, Carl and I used to all work on each other's projects. My original prize-winning commercial 'Courage Light Brigade' was played on 2 harpsichords and piano played by the 3 of us! However it was thought to be a bit crazy for an ad and I rescored it for orchestra. Of course I met Hans Zimmer who looked after Stanley and Richard Harvey's 'Snake Ranch'. After Deer Hunter, Stanley really got too busy and tried to do too much. Like so many others he desperately wanted to be recognised as a classical composer and spent much time on his Saxophone Concerto. My last memory was having dinner (...) in the summer of 1993 when I looked through his completed score of the Concerto (I had advised him on various phrasings and dynamics etc). (...) He looked fine (...) but died later that year of leukaemia. I wrote an obituary and at his memorial where I was honoured to conduct the concerto. He is greatly missed.\nArranged by jean-francois houben\nAlfriston Summer Music\nSEEN AND HEARD INTERNATIONAL MusicWeb International's Worldwide Concert and Opera Reviews * OPERA REVIEWS * UK CONCERTS * INTERNATIONAL CONCERTS * NEWS ARTICLES * INTERVIEWS * HOME Clicking Google advertisements helps keep MusicWeb subscription-free.

This is, without doubt, what the very attentive and appreciative audience at tonight\u2019s show was thinking as they listened to some of the most attractive and satisfying music written in the last 25 years. Alfriston Summer Music is now in its fourth year and this show was part of a week\u2019s music making which takes place in the beautiful 14th century church in this idyllic English country village; each year Jeremy Young and Daniel Bhattacharya present chamber music in the most delightful surroundings you could imagine. The church is ideal for performance for it isn\u2019t too reverberant \u2013 it\u2019s a small building (only 115 feet by 70!) \u2013 and there is a real feeling of intimacy which chamber music craves. I wish I could have stayed and heard more. Tonight\u2019s concert was given in honour of Blake\u2019s 70th birthday and it was a happy choice to pair his work with that of Haydn, surely one of the wittiest composers who ever put pen to paper. The Edinburgh Quartet gave two Haydn Quartets with exactly the right spirit, pointing all the humour \u2013 and there is much humour in these works \u2013 and delighting us with their delicate touch in this music. Most enjoyable was Mark Bailey\u2019s relishing of Haydn\u2019s fantastic cello writing, but theirs was a true ensemble performance, all four members of the quartet working together in superb accord. Blake\u2019s new quartet Spieltrieb, commissioned by the Edinburgh Quartet to celebrate its 50th anniversary, was given a magnificent performance. It\u2019s not often that one hears a premi\u00e8re of such assurance and commitment. Spieltrieb is a concise work, playing for about 16 minutes, but within that short timespan there is much event \u2013 including a superb pizzicato scherzo of great virtuosity and, best of all, a coda to melt even the hardest of hearts, ending in the purest D major. This is a major addition to the quartet repertoire and it is to be hoped that it will be taken up by many groups in the near future. The Violin Sonata is a big, bold work; the outer movements are predominantly fast, but within their framework there is a multitude of emotions and moods. The slow, middle, movement begins and ends as a valse triste which encloses a passionate outburst. Tristan Gurney gave a very assured performance in which he was partnered by the composer. The Diversions for marimba and piano, an arrangement of a work for cello and orchestra, ended the concert in very high spirits, the audience being both fascinated by an instrument which seldom finds itself in the spotlight and by a work of great wit and vitality. Sam Walton is a soloist of outstanding virtuosity and Jeremy Young played the piano part with great aplomb. It says much for the quality of both the music and the music making that at the end of the concert many members of the audience wanted to stay and chat with the performers about what they had heard. If this is what Alfriston Summer Music is all about then I hope to return and experience it again.

With Bernard Cribbins, nearly 80, and a polished Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, he was the star of a 70th-birthday tribute to Blake Sr at the Cadogan Hall, near Sloane Square, in London. You could hear every word sung by Master Blake (a member of the Stockholm Boys\u2019 Choir), both when he was amplified and when he wasn\u2019t. I have never heard The Snowman live, and had not realised how, with its wit, sensitivity, and subtle design, it is a masterpiece when viewed as a whole. We were eager to hear the London premi\u00e8re, also conducted by the composer, of Blake\u2019s 50-minute oratorio The Passion of Mary, which draws together his previous Stabat Mater, the Magnificat, the Salve Regina, and other Marian and nativity texts with the wisdom of a Berlioz. The outcome is a splendid, highly accessible choral work of Three Choirs dimensions. Patricia Rosario \u2014 here especially striking \u2014 and Martyn Hill were the soprano and tenor soloists. Howard Blake is a master-musician from whom our church and cathedral organists should commission anthems and canticle settings; for he has inspiration on his side.\nArranged by jo carpenter\nDAILY MAIL 'HOW THE SNOWMAN SAVED MY LIFE'\nPublished by DAILY MAIL Femail 20th December 2008 writer Amanda Cable\nhttp://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-1097259/He-close-breakdown-composer-Howard-Blake-idea-Walking-In-The-Air-The-rest-history-.html\nHoward Blake loves to tell the story of the time he caught a taxi to the airport. His composition, Walking In The Air, from the animated TV film The Snowman, which was sung by Aled Jones, was topping the Christmas charts. Howard chortles as he recalls, 'The radio in the taxi was playing The Snowman, and I asked the driver to turn it down. He said, \" Listen mate, this is the best tune you'll ever hear. You should sit back and listen. You might learn about good music.\" 'So I sat back and said rather smugly. \"Well, actually, I wrote this song. The driver turned around and said, \"Oh, yeah? And I'm Father Christmas.\"' Howard Blake came up with the score for Walking In The Air on a secluded beach in Cornwall, not long after a near-breakdown Howard Blake came up with the score for Walking In The Air on a secluded beach in Cornwall, not long after a near-breakdown With that, Howard throws back his head and roars with laughter. With his boyish face and twinkling eyes, he is not what one might expect from an eminent composer who has just turned 70. In fact, his birthday was marked by a special concert and topping the bill - with an angelic rendition of Walking In The Air - was Howard's ten-year-old son, Robert. The enchanting story of a boy and his snowman who comes alive, is now a firmly established Christmas classic. A 26-minute animated film, first shown on Channel 4 on Christmas Eve 1982, it has become the staple diet of TV repeats every December. While the story is heartwarming in itself, it is Howard's haunting score, and, in particular, the music and lyrics of the theme song Walking In The air, which give the film such hope and joy. Incredibly, the song was first composed when Howard was in the depths of despair. Born to working class parents in Brighton, by the time Howard was six he had taught himself to read and play music and, at 18, he won a scholarship to the Royal College of Music. After scraping a living as a session musician, his break came in 1968 when he was asked to compose incidental music for some of the Tara King episodes of the hugely successful cult TV series The Avengers. 'Everyone wanted me to write for The Avengers, and after that I was offered other TV shows, films and commercials, and my income suddenly leapt. I took it all on and, in the middle of it all, I got married. My wife, Mavis, didn't want to live in a pokey little flat, so we bought a lease on a house in Knightsbridge, next to Harrods. 'It was grand, imposing, impressive - and I hated it. I would find myself walking around this huge house, feeling totally displaced, and I couldn't compose a note. It was a kind of breakdown. I thought, \"I can't keep going like this\". It was total burnout, and I'd had enough - to the point that I didn't even care if I lived or died anymore. 'I knew I had to get away. It would mean career suicide, but I just didn't care. I said to my wife, \"I've got to work out what I'm going to do, and I need to find somewhere totally silent.\" I packed the car, and left her on the doorstep, asking, \"What do I tell people?\" Howard Blake with his son Robert, who sang the classic song at a concert to mark his father's 70th birthday Howard Blake with his son Robert, who sang the classic song at a concert to mark his father's 70th birthday 'I didn't have a clue where I was going, but I finally ended up in a tiny fishing village in Cornwall. The beach, was deserted because it was late February, and next to it was an empty holiday camp. In the corner was a small wooden chalet, all on it's own, and I thought, \"That's where I need to be.\" 'The only heating was a single electric bar heater, but, walking into this freezing hut, in total isolation, was the first time I felt calm in months. I started reading, took up yoga and finally began to write music again. 'One day, as I walked along the deserted beach, six notes just came to my head. I jotted them down on a scrap of paper - which I still own. This was the beginning of the tune of Walking In The Air.' Those few notes and the dog-eared scrap of paper stayed with Howard for 11 years, as he returned to London and rebuilt his life and career. His marriage collapsed - but he was composing the orchestral, choral and ballet scores he'd always dreamed of. 'But those few notes of my un-named melody kept coming back to haunt me,' he says. 'I couldn't get them out of my head - I needed to find a home for the song.' Then, by chance, in 1982, Howard met film producer John Coates, who was working on a new animated film. This was The Snowman - based on the children's picture book by Raymond Briggs - but he needed a score to accompany it. Howard says, 'I knew this was where my song should go.' It was only when the music was finished, that Howard decided to write lyrics to his lead melody. 'I got up one morning and thought, \"I'll hire a deckchair in the park for the day and write some words. 'I didn't actually have a clue what I was going to write, but, as I stepped from the doorstep onto the pavement, and then from the pavement down onto the road, I suddenly thought about stepping into the air... walking in the air. I thought, \"That's great - I've never heard anyone say that phrase.\" So I paid a fiver for my deckchair, and sat writing for the whole day.' Aled Jones, who recorded Walking In The Air for a TV Commercial after the original singer's voice broke Aled Jones, who recorded Walking In The Air for a TV Commercial after the original singer's voice broke Although many people believe that Aled Jones sang the film's theme song, it was actually recorded by Peter Auty, a 12-year-old choir boy from St Paul's Cathedral. It was only five years later, when a toy company asked to use the tune for a TV commercial, that Howard decided to re-record it. 'I rang Peter, and a deep voice answered the phone,' he says. 'His voice had broken, so he couldn't be my soloist. We didn't know who to choose, but I had seen a boy from Wales sing on the BBC's Songs Of Praise. I found out his name - and that was how The Snowman made Aled's career.' Fifty-six and divorced with two children, Howard, now established as one of Britain's most successful composers, was to find his life changed unexpectedly. 'To be honest, I was totally fulfilled,' he says. 'I never expected I would ever fall in love again. 'It happened by chance. I went to have my picture taken for the cover of my CD, and the photographer had two Swedish friends staying. One was Diane, who was just 23. We got on so well, and I fell in love with her very quickly. She is my soulmate.' When Robert came along, Howard was terrified of being an older father - but, he needn't have worried. 'I didn't have much to do with my older children after my divorce, so it's been wonderful to grow so close to Robert. I dance around the room to music with him. It was only when he was six that I heard him singing in the bath and realised he had a beautiful voice.' In fact, Robert won a place with the world-renowned Stockholm Cathedral Boys Choir, and has performed several times on national television. When a concert was planned to celebrate Howard's 70th birthday, Robert was chosen as the soloist. 'I can't imagine a better way to celebrate my birthday than seeing my own boy on stage, singing my song,' he says. 'Yes, it did bring tears to my eyes. The whole evening was magical. And it snowed that night - for the first time in 70 years in London in October.' Diane and Robert live in Stockholm, and Howard sees them every few weeks. 'We live apart,' he says, 'because Diane has her own career as a corporate lawyer, but we are such a close family unit. 'I can't wait for them to come to London for Christmas. Last year, we all went to midnight mass and the Bishop of Kensington started his sermon by saying, \"There is more to Christmas than Rudolf the Red Nosed Reindeer and The Snowman\".' With that, Howard starts to chuckle again - a musical genius who likes nothin\nWhat was it about 1982, its fantastical mute characters and heartwarming flights with children? This animation of Raymond Briggs'story has the edge over 'ET' thanks to (Howard Blake's)'Walking in the air', the horrors of Aled Jones' subsequent career notwithstanding\t(Back to Top)\nHoward BLAKE (b 1938) Violin Sonata, op.586 (1973 \u2013 2007) [23:41] Penillion, op.571 (1975/2005) [9:32] Piano Quartet, op.179 (1974) [27:14] Jazz Dances, op.520a (1976/2008) [13:48] Madeleine Mitchell (violin), Jack Rothstein (violin), Kenneth Essex (viola), Peter Willison (cello), Howard Blake (piano) rec. 9 October 1974, Conway Hall, London (Quartet), 24 and 25 May 2008 (Sonata), 13 July 2008 (Penillion) and 14 July 2008 (Jazz Dances), Potton Hall, Westleton, Suffolk DDD NAXOS 8.572083 [74:15] Released to coincide with his 70th birthday, this disk of, mainly, \u201crecent\u201d chamber works by Howard Blake is a welcome reminder that there is so much more to this interesting composer than Walking in the Air and a myriad of film and TV scores. Whilst a student Blake formed a violin and piano duo with the late Miles Baster \u2013 it was after a recital they gave in Edinburgh, which ended with the Franck Sonata, that Baster was asked to form the Edinburgh Quartet (for whom Blake has recently completed a String Quartet for their 50th anniversary) \u2013 and they worked their way through the whole of the repertoire for their instruments. The Violin Sonata was written at the behest of Baster but as he left for Scotland and the new Quartet the work was abandoned with only a few sketches made. A decade later Jack Rothstein asked for a Sonata and the first version of the present work was written. But what we have here is a \u201cferociously\u201d (Blake\u2019s word) revised version, dedicated to the memory of Baster. Starting in a most unprepossessing way the music soon moves into typical Blakeian rhythmic and melodic mode, and the movement progresses in a dance\u2013like manner, with short lyrical episodes breaking up the forward movement. Although this music doesn\u2019t sound at all like Douglas Lilburn\u2019s magnificent Violin Sonata (1950) it reminded me of that work because of its sheer determination of purpose. The slow movement which follows is distant and withdrawn, the music moving simply in a melodic line for the violin accompanied by a single line in the right hand of the piano and held chords in the left. An agitated and passionate middle section, with wide leaps for the fiddle, disturbs the calm but the opening section returns, a little more resigned and melancholic. The finale is a laconic and gently humorous piece, after a whirlwind start, which jumps from idea to idea without resting. This Violin Sonata is a very fine achievement and a worthy addition to the repertoire. Penillion was originally written for violin and harp and exists in several different version \u2013 one for flute and harp is available on a disk of Blake\u2019s chamber music, MERIDIAN CDE84553. It\u2019s in eight very short sections mixing lively and restrained music. As befits a penillion \u2013 a Welsh composition where an harpist accompanies him/herself whilst singing \u2013 these are songs without words, but the harmonies are far more modern than anything you\u2019d hear in a real penillion. It\u2019s an unpretentious, delicate piece. That the Piano Quartet should be included here is of special significance for it was with this work that Blake made the conscious decision to cut back on his more commercial, and lucrative (!) film work and turn to the concert hall. Indeed so much is it a pivotal work in his catalogue that he turned down the opportunity to score Stanley Kubrick\u2019s Barry Lyndon in favour of writing this work. The work was written for the performers playing here, who gave the premi\u00e8re, in the Purcell Room, eight months after this recording was made. It\u2019s a very classical work in the mould of Dvo\u0159\u00e1k\u2019s chamber works (a comment which shocked Blake when I mentioned it to him, for he had thought it to be rooted slightly earlier). No matter. It\u2019s a fine work, strong themes, a well thought out design, very gratefully written for the instruments \u2013 Blake fully understand strings (he says he once played the fiddle badly). The scherzo, second, movement has a Mendelssohnian lightness and freshness about it, but the harmony belies anything pre\u20131940! The slow movement may come as a shock to anyone who knows Blake\u2019s wonderful Piano Concerto (re\u2013issued this month SONY 88697376972) for this is the Concerto\u2019s slow movement in embryo. It\u2019s very touching in this form, the emotion more restrained, the gestures smaller but no less moving. The finale is a country dance. The Jazz Dances make a delightful collection of encore pieces, but they\u2019re not jazz per se, rather jazzy pieces \u2013 in the way that the Blues in Ravel\u2019s Violin Sonata is jazzy. It\u2019s hard to believe that these pieces, which fit perfectly on to the combination of violin and piano, were originally written for two pianos! They are by turns fast and slow, one a blues, one a boogie, one a kind of popular song and so on. Like the Five Pieces, op.84 (1964) by his friend Malcolm Arnold any one of these miniatures would make very good encore pieces for they are most enjoyable and great fun. This is a very enjoyable and exciting disk, not least for the superb Violin Sonata. Madelaine Mitchell is a committed advocate for this music and it is to be hoped that the Sonata, at the very least, will enter her regular repertoire. The composer himself is a sympathetic duo partner, and the sessions brought back, for him, the memories of his partnership with Baster and the joy and satisfaction of playing chamber music together. Despite the fact that the recording of the Quartet dates from 34 years before the recordings of the other works, the sound is remarkably consistent and has a lovely, rich, ambiance and in the duo works there is a real feel of the concert room. The musicians are placed a little way from the microphone so as to put them in perspective with the acoustic. Now Naxos has dipped its toe into the Blake catalogue might I make a plea for a disk of his music for string quartet? The public deserves to hear more of this endlessly fascinating and very interesting composer. Bob Briggs\t(Back to Top)\nhttp://www.musicweb-international.com/classrev/2008/roty2008_1.htm\nFor a composer with such an impressive body of work as Howard Blake it is scandalous that he should be known by only a few pieces \u2013 the most famous being his score for the animated film The Snowman. His music is readily approachable, quite often has a smile on its face (a characteristic of the composer himself), and his catalogue is frighteningly diverse, ranging from music for The Avengers (\"A glass of champagne, Mrs Peel?\") to scores for some 60 films, including Ridley Scott\u2019s The Duellists (available on Airstrip One AOD HB 002), and far too much concert music to begin listing here. This year he turns 70 and shows no signs of slowing down, having recently completed a stunning String Quartet, named Spieltrieb, and started work on his 1st Symphony! This is a timely re\u2013issue, to coincide with his birthday on 28 October, featuring three concertos, one each for piano, cello and orchestra. The Piano Concerto was commissioned by the Philharmonia Orchestra to celebrate the 30th birthday of Princess Diana, who was the orchestra\u2019s patron. Blake was promised a pianist of the calibre of Kissin as soloist so he wrote a true virtuoso work only to be told, as he reached the end of the composition that, as no\u2013one was available, he would have to play it himself. He rose to the challenge, despite having never played a Piano Concerto in his life, and gave the premi\u00e8re in the Royal Festival Hall, in London, shortly after making this recording. In the usual three movements, and, as with his Violin Concerto (available on ASV CDDCA 905), the first movement takes up the bulk of the playing time, it is a joyous piece, starting with the simplest and most innocent of ideas \u2013 and what an idea it is, pregnant with possibilities \u2013 which returns in the finale and is transformed at first into a musical box idea, then a fugue and finally a rhumba! These two fast movements \u2013 Blake is a master at writing sustained fast music, which is none too easy and is seldom encountered in so much music of today \u2013 enclose a tender slow movement which truly has an heart of gold. The piano writing is of the most virtuoso kind, the orchestration is colourful and always interesting \u2013 just listen to the wonderful writing for brass \u2013 especially the horns \u2013 at the beginning of the recapitulation of the first movement. It sends shivers down my spine every time I hear it \u2013 which is often. Nobody can afford to miss this, one of the truly memorable Piano Concertos of the last century for it is fine stuff indeed. I will stick my neck out and say that, for me, it is the most sheerly joyous Piano Concerto since Ravel\u2019s in G. Blake talked quite extensively about the genesis of the work when I interviewed him recently. The Diversions is a more serious and complicated work. Originally written for cello and piano, in 1973, it was a meeting with the great French cellist Maurice Gendron, eleven years later, which brought about a full scale concerto piece and the orchestration was completed in 1985. In eight movements, some very short, the work shows the cello off to great advantage in richly romantic music, the soloist quite often singing its heart out in wide ranging melodies or showing off its agility with rapid passage work. There\u2019s an extended Aria (movement 5), a wonderfully Gallic Serenade (movement 6) and the work ends with a riotous finale. The cello repertoire still isn\u2019t as big as it should be, given the amount of fine players around, and this is a valuable addition to the catalogue. Cohen is one of this country\u2019s best players and he is grossly under represented on disk so it\u2019s good to have this example of his work. He plays with total conviction, as if he\u2019s been playing the work all his life, and it\u2019s a thrilling performance, brilliantly accompanied by the Philharmonia. To end, the orchestra itself comes under the spotlight. First the woodwind, with gloriously gamboling bassoons, entertain us, soon joined by the horns. Gradually all the various instruments join in until the full orchestra has entered the game. This, however, is no display piece in the manner of Young Person\u2019s Guide or the Bart\u00f3k Concerto for Orchestra. The tempo is fairly relaxed, there\u2019s much humour \u2013 Blake is a very funny man and I can hear him now doing impressions or telling stories of the people he has known and worked with \u2013 and, in a way, it\u2019s as much a portrait of the composer as it is a work celebrating the orchestra. This disk must not be missed on any account for it contains music by a much under-rated composer whose voice is clear and well focused, who can communicate with his audience, can write fluently and with great confidence for the full orchestra and, best of all, knows how to entertain. The performances are magnificent, the sound gloriously full and rich and the notes from the original (1991) issue by the much missed Christopher Palmer, who also produced the disk, although out of date in some respects, are a lesson in how to write clearly and without fuss about music. Beg, steal or borrow the money to buy this disk, for, once heard, you\u2019ll not want to be without this marvellous music. Bob Briggs\t(Back to Top)\nPublished by Peace Arch News, Canada\nBy Alex Browne - Peace Arch News Published: November 08, 2008 10:00 AM When British author/illustrator Raymond Briggs\u2019 classic 1982 children\u2019s book, The Snowman, was turned into an equally classic (and Oscar-nominated) animated film by director Dianne Jackson, one of the lasting benefits was the creation of a musical score by English composer Howard Blake. It included the song Walking In The Air, sung by a boy soprano, which became an international hit. But much like the magical snowman of the story, built by a lonely boy named James who discovers to his amazement that he has created a friend and partner in adventure, Blake\u2019s entire score for the movie has taken on a life of its own. Today, it is frequently performed at events in which it is played by a live orchestra accompanying the film. And there\u2019s also a concert version with full narration taking the place \u2013 Peter and the Wolf-like \u2013 of the visual imagery. But in both cases, the challenges of performing and interpreting the piece are usually in the hands of professional musicians. Not so in the upcoming sold-out performance of The Snowman by the Semiahmoo Strings Youth Orchestra (Sunday, Nov. 30, 2:30 p.m. at the Wheelhouse Theatre, Earl Marriott Secondary, 15751 16 Ave.). With the exception of percussionist Phillip Crewe and guest singer Aiden Wilk, the brilliantly tender and evocative music is in the hands of the student musicians \u2013 under the direction of Strings founder Carla Birston. It\u2019s yet another of the challenges \u2013 including supporting professional baritone Alex Dobson, and playing with some of Vancouver\u2019s finest jazz musicians \u2013 that mark the Semiahmoo Strings (and its junior subgroups) as an ensemble in a realm of its own among youth orchestras. As usual, Carla is being assisted in preparing and rehearsing the ensemble by her husband, cellist and arranger Harold Birston, and is also receiving welcome help from violinist Gillian Gjernes, mother of Strings cellist Roland. There is a cinema theme to all of the concert, which, beyond the accompanied screening of the 26-minute film, offers classical pieces that have acquired new life by being featured in soundtracks, as well as music specifically created for motion pictures. Thus John Williams\u2019 famous Raiders Of The Lost Ark theme, performed by the Demi-Semiahmoo Strings, and a suite of film themes by Italian film composer Ennio Morricone (The Untouchables, Once Upon A Time In The West, The Good The Bad and the Ugly, Maddalena) are joined by Bach\u2019s Toccata and Fugue (given bravura treatment by conductor Leopold Stokowski and Disney artists\u2019 visuals in the groundbreaking 1940 Fantasia), and two pieces latterly associated with 2001 A Space Odyssey, Richard Strauss\u2019 fanfare from Also Sprach Zarathustra and Johann Strauss\u2019 By The Beautiful Blue Danube (used memorably for a sequence of a rocket docking at a space station). But while these are the kind of idiomatic stretches the Strings\u2019 members have taken in stride before, actually playing to film is new territory for the talented students. It\u2019s also providing a workout for Carla, whose conducting of tempos and cues will be critical in matching the music to the movie \u2013 the students eyes must stay on her, rather than wandering to the projected images. \u201cI\u2019ve watched it about 50 times over the last month,\u201d she said. \u201cTwice a night, including one time through conducting without the sound.\u201d A surprise for her was the free-flowing nature of the score as opposed to movie music that mirrors every aspect of the action. \u201cI would have thought the music would have been more in synch with the images \u2013 but it\u2019s not at all,\u201d she said, noting some actions begin on second and third beats of measures, while even a dance sequence in which a snowman appears to be conducting the music is not in strict tempo. \u201cYou look for every little thing as a cue. Harold said, \u2018You\u2019re going to have the best sense of time after this\u2019.\u201d \u201cI don\u2019t know how this would work with one of those ubiquitous click tracks they use now,\u201d Harold Birston said. \u201cThe publishers offered to attempt to make a click track for us, but I\u2019m sure it will work fine without it.\u201d It helps that the young musicians really love the music, Carla said. In fact, excitement about the project ran so high among the students after the first rehearsal that she was beseiged with demands for tickets \u2013 which led to an early sell-out for the concert. \u201cThey were buying tickets for their friends as well as their families,\u201d she noted. \u201cI think we could have sold it out three times over.\u201d Noting the response, the Birstons are not ruling out a repeat of the film music idea \u2013 possibly as a special concert every year. They agree that film music has become the most vital survivals of the classical tradition in the present day \u2013 and it\u2019s dramatic sense is a guarantee of audience attention. \u201cI like the license film composers have,\u201d Harold said. \u201cI like that about opera too \u2013 it\u2019s not like the strict sonata form. But some film music is beautifully scored, and beautifully played by first class musicians. Challenging or not, the exercise of The Snowman will be worthwhile for the sense of accomplishment among the Semiahmoo Strings musicians \u2013 and their director. \u201cI said to Harold, \u2018As soon as I see that snowman\u2019s face on the big screen I\u2019m going to be very excited\u2019,\u201d Carla said.\t(Back to Top)\nPublished by Daily Mail, October 30th, 2008\nhttp://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1081639/Diners-sour-Ramsay.html\nWalking in the snow. Composer Howard Blake's celebratory 70th birthday concert at Cadogan Hall, where he conducted the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, included one especially personal performance. For singing the solo of his hit Walking In The Air from The Snowman was his ten-year-old chorister son Robert - performed, coincidentally, just as the first October snow in London fell for 70 years. 'It went down tremendously well,' a proud Blake tells me. 'Robert has grown up with music and he loves it. He's taking after me, I think.' A 600-strong audience enjoyed the concert, which also featured the brilliant Shanghai-based pianist William Chen and the London premiere of Blake's dramatic oratorio The Passion Of Mary. 'I thought I've got this huge birthday and I'm so old nothing will happen, so I sat down and thought what I would really like to happen on my birthday and this was it,' adds Blake, who after the performance headed to the Groucho Club, where a piano was installed in his private party room especially for the occasion.\t(Back to Top)\nClassic FM Radio Arts Daily podcast\nPublished by Classic FM\nhttp://www.classicfm.co.uk/sectional.asp?id=17535\nThis week sees a special concert celebrating the life and works of Howard Blake.

Several composers working for the movies and writing for the concert hall have a very critical (sometimes cynical) attitude concerning their own film music (for example, Miklos Rozsa -- you had lunch with -- judged his musical life as a double life). What are your current feelings about \"film music\"? - Howard BLAKE: As a student at the Royal Academy of Music, I studied composition and piano between 1957and 1960 (classical - I toured with a violinist playing Mozart, Bach, Beethoven, Franck, Ravel... etc) on a bourse but became disenchanted with current ideas of 12-tone, serial... I saw Potemkin with an orchestral score at the age of about 19 and decided that the future of art lay in the combination of music and images (film images). I applied to study film rather than music but at that time nobody could understand what I was talking about, and they wanted me to do a course in photography. The University grant people decided I should stay at the RAM, where I did very little. I spent much time at the National Film Theatre and wrote extensively on the philosophy of art/music/cinema etc. After college I got a job at the National Film Theatre... which I loved- I met Jean Renoir, Fritz Lang, Vincente Minelli, Jacques Tati, Orson Welles, Chris Marker- all sorts of people! I made my own 16mm film which I wrote, edited and composed the music for. It was terrible but good enough to be shown in the film theatre as a short with Maltese Falcon- believe it or not! But I realised my gift was music and not script or direction. I was very interested in the fact that film used every sort of music and decided I must learn all sorts. I took jobs in pubs and nightclubs as a pianist playing jazz, pop, rock, latin american... and one night was 'discovered' and asked if I would like to be a recording session pianist working at Abbey Road. I enjoyed this and played with good people: John McLaughlin, Jimmy Page, Tom Jones, Cliff Richard, Sylvie Vartan, Francis Lai... among many. Whilst doing this, I wrote a 12-minute symphony sub-titled 'Impressions of a City' which I wanted to film. However instead I met Bernard Herrmann who thought it was brilliant and asked me to do some arranging and recommended me to Laurie Johnson at Elstree. I played piano and organ on The Avengers and then was asked to take over as composer/musical director, which I did (1967/1968). At the same time, I wrote many commercials for TV (204!), feature films (Some Will Some Won't, Elephant called slowly, All the way up... (...) At that point, I (...) realised I was not doing what I wanted to do. I (...) re-thought the situation, deciding I would try again to write a 'Symphony with Images'. I (...) moved to a watermill in Sussex where I worked at such a thing- but without result. However my composition improved a lot and I began to write 'serious' works as they are called- Piano Quartet, Diversions for cello, Cantata 'Song of St Francois', Benedictus' oratorio. Suddenly all sorts of people wanted me to write: Ridley Scott and David Puttman came to see me for 'The Duellists', Lynn Seymour asked me to compose a ballet for The Queen, The Royal Shakespeare Company asked me to write for the theatre, and Richard Williams asked me to write for animation. But I still hadn't created my own film in which the music drives the images. I gave up the idea (...) and I returned to London to be a 'pen for hire' again, buying my present studio in Kensington in early 1982 to be MD [Musical Director] on 'The Hunger' for Tony Scott. I had just started on this when The Snowman happened. I had seen an 8' pencil animatic in October 1981 and suggested to TVC that one could do a film with no dialogue and had recorded a piano demo. I saw it as the sudden opening of a window onto what I always wanted to do and I took full advantage! Snowman in England has become an icon and is very successfull (platinum disk, top of the pops, TV every Christmas for 24 years, plus stage show, concert versions, etc, etc...). I hoped this would lead to many more things of the sort- open an avenue. It is true that I did two more similar animations (Granpa in 1988 and The Bear in 1998) but they were surrounded by trouble and contractual manoeuvres and therefore hampered, to an extent sabotaged, which is a pity. I have never taken a view like Miklos Rozsa and Bernard Herrmann because I started with a different view. ( I discussed it with them at length when we all had lunch at the Gay Hussar that time). There are many different genres within film and if you are lucky enough to be asked to do one, you should be aware of what it is you have taken on. Of course if you want to make money that is something else. Many of the most interesting things produce no money and many of the most boring produce a lot of money!! I took very much the view of Mozart, that as a composer you must respond to the wishes of the time and do your best possible work in every case. This is not perhaps a typical view and is the exact opposite of Wagner's - but then I like Mozart and I don't like Wagner! At the end of my website biography [http://www.howardblake.com/], there is a note of 'what I believe' from the Encyclopaedia of Contemporary Composers. (...) I think that the 'Symphony with Images' I always dreamt of found a way of being born on STAGE rather than FILM! ...for the problem with film is that it is enmeshed in finance, politics, propaganda, stars and directors with egos needing gigantic streams of money and publicity and flattery...The great art of film with its sister-muse of music which promised such fine possibilities of beauty in the days of European Silent Cinema has been hijacked by book and theatre agents and mass exploitation of lowest human common denominators. If one wants to experiment one has to face up to the fact that one will have to pay for it oneself. And it's expensive. Lastly, it is true I have adapted one or two scores for concert performance -Duellists and Riddle of the Sands at the request of the RPO [Royal Philharmonic Orchestra]. The only ones that work for me are the 3 animation scores. They stand up as music because they were composed as music. Otherwise scores are best heard WITH film because that is what they are designed for. - JFH: You are now a notorious composer, pianist, conductor and musical director. Several years ago, you did some orchestrations a.o. for English film composer Stanley Myers (1933-1993). Can you share some memories about him? - Howard BLAKE: Stanley was a terrific person who helped people and loved music of all sorts ; he was interested in and enthusiastic about everything. He was highly intelligent and had read PPE at Balliol Oxford. I met him in the period when I was still playing in clubs and he had just landed his first TV film, perhaps it was 'Poor Cow' or 'Up the junction', I can't remember... He asked me to play keyboards and I wrote out some funky Jimmy Smith licks. We became great friends and went to many concerts together, from Pink Floyd to Stockhausen, with different girl friends (he had more than anybody I have ever met). I remember going to the Thad Jones/Mel Lewis big band at Ronnie Scott's with Quincy Jones, John Williams the guitarist and Stanley. He often gave dinner parties and invited very interesting people - Jerry Goldsmith one night (who played us a tape of a Cantata he had written) -Roy Budd (who he introduced to everybody) - the great Hollywood arrangers (...) who had worked for Gershwin and argued about the different qualities of a cello A or D-string. I played classical pipe organ at the BBC with jazz rhythm section on 'All Gas and Gaiters'. On 'Kaleidoscope' I played many different instruments as he loved to use many different sounds. That was a big break for him. I loved the funky-sort of waltz of the titles and the very original suspense music with - I think - azikwe xylophone and a harp bass line. I played piano on several different versions of his 'Cavatina', which I remember him writing - the girl in the next studio in Redcliffe Road said to me 'he keeps playing this same tune over and over again it's driving me insane!'. First was on 'The Walking Stick' with David Hemmings, then on 'The Raging Moon' with Brian Forbes before finally on 'Deer Hunter' , which I didn't play on - we were both in Hollywood at that time but working in different studios. John Williams played on all three. I loved 'Michael Kohlhaas' which I went to see with him, and I loved playing on 'Age of Consent' for Michael Powell. I played solo piano at Olympic and James Mason sat next to me, saying he wished he could play the piano! At the start Stanley, Carl and I used to all work on each other's projects. My original prize-winning commercial 'Courage Light Brigade' was played on 2 harpsichords and piano played by the 3 of us! However it was thought to be a bit crazy for an ad and I rescored it for orchestra. Of course I met Hans Zimmer who looked after Stanley and Richard Harvey's 'Snake Ranch'. After Deer Hunter, Stanley really got too busy and tried to do too much. Like so many others he desperately wanted to be recognised as a classical composer and spent much time on his Saxophone Concerto. My last memory was having dinner (...) in the summer of 1993 when I looked through his completed score of the Concerto (I had advised him on various phrasings and dynamics etc). (...) He looked fine (...) but died later that year of leukaemia. I wrote an obituary and at his memorial where I was honoured to conduct the concerto. He is greatly missed...\t(Back to Top)",

In 2011, sixty determined cyclists joined forces to conquer the hills of Italy\u2019s Emilia-Romagna region in support of a dramatically different hospital. Months of intense training\u2014through the extremes of our Canadian climate\u2014paid off: On October 13, 2012, Team Revolution crossed the finish line of the Granfondo Italia victorious, raising $425,000 to help build North America\u2019s most digital hospital.\nOne Granfondo wasn\u2019t enough for these big-hearted cyclists. They recognized the continued need as Humber River Hospital continued to innovate and use technology to reinvent patient care. On September 7, 2014, Team Revolution took to the mountains of Piacenza, Italy to conquer the Granfondo Piacenza Scott, followed by a grueling, 132km Granfondo through treacherous weather and bumpy roads in Terracina, Italy on September 18, 2016.\nOver the years, the team has grown to over 100 riders and has raised $1.8 million for Humber River Hospital. Team Revolution\u2019s sights are now set on their next big challenge: they are heading back to Italy in September 2018 to complete the Granfondo Peschiera Del Garda.\nHow will our riders reach the finish line? With hard work, perseverance and your support.",

For the same reason you also pay taxes, for the authorities are ministers of God, attending to this very thing. Pay to all what is owed to them: taxes to whom taxes are owed, revenue to whom revenue is owed, respect to whom respect is owed, honor to whom honor is owed. [Rom. 13:5-7]\nFirst of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all people, for kings and all who are in high positions, that we may lead a peaceful and quiet life, godly and dignified in every way. This is good, and it is pleasing in the sight of God our Savior. [1 Tim. 2:1-3]\nRemind them to be submissive to rulers and authorities, to be obedient, to be ready for every good work. [Titus 3:1]\nBe subject for the Lord\u2019s sake to every human institution, whether it be to the emperor as supreme, or to governors as sent by him to punish those who do evil and to praise those who do good. [1 Peter 2:13-14]\nIn the Table of Duties, the last entry, \u201cTo Everyone\u201d, forms the summary of the duties of all Christians within the three hierarchies God established for us to live within: Church, Government, and Home/Family. \u201cTo Everyone\u201d sums the whole Table up by pointing out the all-encompassing responsibility that one is to love the neighbor and offer petitions for the whole world.\nHow does a Christian citizen of a community (a group of families who live together in one place or area) or a nation-state (a larger group of communities) so love the neighbor within and pray for the community and nation?\nLuther begins with the words of Jesus. To Caesar belongs the things of Caesar. To God belong the things of God. Caesar rules the community and nation, maintaining order and discipline within the rule of Law (see \u201cOf Civil Government\u201d last week). Caesar does not preach the Gospel and proclaim the forgiveness of sins on Jesus\u2019 behalf. Those belong to God and His Church.\nCaesar does not preach the Gospel and proclaim the forgiveness of sins on Jesus\u2019 behalf. Those belong to God and His Church.\nTherefore, knowing that there is a set order of duties for the government, the Christian can be subject, or, stay in the correct God-given order for his physical good, and for the good of his conscience. Caesar is a minister of God of the civil law and to mete out its justice. Pleasing him is to be pleasing \u201cin the sight of God our Savior\u201d (1 Tim 2.3). So Christians pay what is owed within that order: taxes, revenue, respect, honor, obedience, good works, prayers, supplications, intercessions, and thanksgivings (for the good done by Caesar).\nThrough cooperation with, and honor and respect for, the government, one becomes God\u2019s blessing to the neighbor, especially in that Caesar works (we pray) for the common good, providing a common defense against evil for the community and the nation (punishing those who do evil and praising those who do good, as the apostle Peter points out).",

        "raw_content": "Administrative Processing - 221(g) Refusal - U.S. Visa\nMany nonimmigrant visas such as H, K, L, O and P require a petition to be filed with USCIS. USCIS must approve the petition before the beneficiary can appear at the U.S. Embassy/Consulate for the visa interview.\nIn the visa categories that require visa petitions, USCIS will research the case and take necessary measures for the legitimacy of the petition, eligibility of the beneficiary, etc., before approving the petition.\nEven after the approved petition, however, a consular officer may still discover new issues, such as the petition approval being obtained through fraud, misrepresentation, or other unlawful means; or that the beneficiary is not entitled to the status conferred by the petition; or a consular officer discovers that the degree certificate presented is forged or the applicant does not have the necessary experience claimed that is required for the petition approval. In these cases, the consular officer can refuse the visa under the 221(g) provision and return the case back to USCIS to reconsider their decision and possibly revoke the earlier approved petition. (Of course, there are other cases of 221(g) denial where the documents are missing, and the visa will be issued once documents are presented.)\nMost of the applicants involved in such administrative processing are either temporary workers (such as H1 visa applicants) or a fiance/e applying for a visa abroad. Consular officers may discover that, in the case of temporary work, the applicant does not appear to meet the requirements for a temporary work classification, or in case of a fiance/e, does not seem to have a bona fide relationship with the petitioning U.S. citizen.\nConsular officers should use the revocation process sparingly and should not attempt to re-adjudicate or reevaluate petitions. However, consular officers in India appear to be using this process liberally and frequently. This essentially causes the duplication of efforts by two US government agencies: USCIS and the Department of State (DOS). The revocation process is quite lengthy and burdensome. It can take anywhere from several months to a couple of years. Neither the petitioning employer nor the applicant would be willing to wait that long. The employer would then potentially look for a different employee, and the applicant would look for another employer. Even if the entire administrative processing goes through positively in favor of the petitioner and visa applicant, about half the validity of the LCA duration would be wasted. In the case of fiance/e, approval of the original K1 would have already expired.\nAt the conclusion of the interview, a consular officer hands over the 221(g) refusal indicating that the petition is being returned to the U.S.\nConsulate returns the petition to the U.S. in a diplomatic pouch for further review.\nWhen NVC receives the returned petition, it reviews it and enters it into the fraud database by fraud management.\nIt may take 2-3 months for NVC to receive the diplomatic pouch, as it may be sent to different consulates to pick up other returned petitions along the way.\nNVC returns the petition to the USCIS service center[1] where the petition was originally filed and approved. This may take around 1 month.\nOnce the USCIS service center receives the petition, it sends a notice of receipt to the petitioner.\nThe service center reviews the returned petition and the interviewing consular officer's notes on the case.\nReturned applications are low priority at USCIS. They are reviewed in the order they are received and after new petitions have been processed.\nService center sends either a Notice of Intent to Deny (NOID) or a Notice of Intent to Revoke (NOIR) to the petitioner documents relevant to the consular officer's objections to rebut.\nDepending on the service center, it gives 30-60 days from the date of NOIR/NOID to the petitioner to respond with additional evidence. The letter will also specify the time frame to respond.\nIf the service center receives the response in a timely manner, it reviews the case and either the original approval is reaffirmed or the petition is officially denied.\nThe service center accordingly sends the official denial letter or a notice of reaffirmation.\nIf the petition is reaffirmed, the service center sends the reaffirmed petition and its supporting evidence provided in the rebuttal directly to the original consulate along with a recommendation to issue a visa.\nThe consulate notifies the beneficiary of a new interview date.

        "raw_content": "Current: Common Traffic Violators\nCommon Traffic Violators\nIndiana law provides the courts and the BMV with the authority to suspend a motorist's driving privileges when certain traffic violations and subsequent actions have been committed\nFailure to Appear / Failure to Pay\nFailure to Meet Insurance Requirements\nFailing to appear before a court of law in response to a citation issued by a law enforcement officer or not paying for tickets after a judgment has been rendered may lead to the suspension of your driving privileges. These types of suspensions are indefinite and end only when the court notifies the BMV that you appeared in court or paid for the offense.\nDriving without a current liability policy that meets the state minimum standard is against the law. The state minimum standardis:\n$25,000 for bodily injury to, or the death of, one individual;\n$50,000 for bodily injury to, or death of, two or more people in any one accident; and\n$25,000 for property damages in any one accident.\nThis is commonly referred to as 25/50/25 liability insurance. To deter uninsured drivers, Indiana law requires the BMV to impose driving privilege suspensions and financial penalties on motorists who are found to have operated a vehicle in Indiana without proof that they hold the state minimum requirement for auto insurance. Financial penalties include reinstatement fees and suspensions ranging from 90 days to one year.\nDo not delay when you have received a notification from the BMV to provide proof of financial responsibility(proof of insurance). Immediately contact your insurance provider and request that they electronically submit a Certificate of Compliance (COC) to the BMV using the Electronic Insurance Forms Submission EIFS system. You may receive a notice to verify financial responsibility from the BMV as the result of any of the following situations:\nAn auto accident.\nA pointable moving traffic violation within one year of receiving two other pointable moving traffic violations.\nA conviction for a misdemeanor or felony traffic violation\nAny pointable moving traffic violation by a driver who was previously suspended for failing to provide proof of financial responsibility.\nA properly filed COC will demonstrate that the vehicle you were operating at the time of the incident or accident was insured to the state\u2019s minimum motor vehicle liability protection (25/50/25). The COC must be received and processed by the BMV within 90 days of the Indiana BMV\u2019s request to verify financial responsibility or your driving privileges will be suspended.\nOnce your driving privileges are suspended, you may have a BMV imposed suspension removed from your driving record by having your insurance provider or employer submit proof of financial responsibility. If you were renting a vehicle or operating a vehicle owned by your employer, and operated as part of your job duties, an Affidavit \u2013 Proof of Financial Responsibility for Employer or Rental Vehicles may be submitted. If you are convicted by an Indiana court for operating a vehicle without insurance, or by a court that is out-of-state, you must contact the court to determine if you can provide proof of insurance to them to remove the conviction from your driving record.\nIf your driving privileges are suspended as a result of a court conviction or for failing to file insurance with the BMV, Indiana law requires you to have your insurance provider file proof of future financial responsibility with an SR22 form for your driving privileges to be reinstated. Failure to file an SR22 will result in the continuation of a suspension on your driving record until you have filed an effective SR22.\nHABITUAL TRAFFIC VIOLATOR (HTV)\nIndiana\u2019s HTV law provides serious penalties for drivers who have repeatedly committed traffic offenses over a 10-year period. The BMV uses the criteria in statute, which are summarized below, to determine whether a driver qualifies as a HTV.\nSECTION A \u2013 10 YEAR SUSPENSION: TWO MAJOR OFFENSES RESULTING IN INJURY OR DEATH\nAn HTV is any person who, within a 10-year period, accumulates two judgments resulting in injury or death. Below is a reference of some of the criminal offenses that will result in an HTV status being placed on your driving privileges. These include:\nReckless homicide resulting from operating a motor vehicle.\nVoluntary or involuntary manslaughter resulting from the operation of a motor vehicle.\nA driver involved in an accident resulting in death or injury who fails to stop at the scene of the accident to provide information and assistance.\nOperating a motor vehicle while intoxicated resulting in death.\nOperating a motor vehicle with a blood alcohol content of .08 percent or more resulting in death.\nDrivers who, within a 10-year period, accumulate two judgments from the above list, will have their driving privileges suspended for 10 years. Drivers who accumulate two judgments within a 10-year period of operating a motor vehicle while intoxicated resulting in death or operating a motor vehicle with blood alcohol content of .08 percent or more resulting in death will have their driving privileges suspended for life.\nSECTION B \u2013 10 YEAR SUSPENSION: THREE MAJOR OFFENSES\nAn HTV is any person who, within a 10-year period, accumulates three judgments including:\nDriving while intoxicated or with a blood alcohol content of .08 percent or more.\nCriminal recklessness as a felony involving the operation of a motor vehicle.\nDrag racing or engaging in a speed contest in violation of the law.\nLeaving the scene of an accident or failing to notify authorities of an accident when required.\nResisting law enforcement under IC 35-44.1-3-1.\nAny felony under an Indiana motor vehicle statute or any felony in which the operation of a vehicle is an element of the offense.\nOperating a Class B motor driven cycle in violation of IC 9-24-1-1(b).\nAny of the offenses listed in Section A,\nDrivers who, within a 10-year period, accumulate three judgments from the above list will have their driving privileges suspended for 10 years.\nSECTION C \u2013 NINE TRAFFIC VIOLATIONS PLUS ONE MAJOR OFFENSE\nAn HTV under this section is subject to a five year driving privilege suspension and has accumulated 10 or more traffic violations in a 10-year period, one of which is a major offense as listed in Sections A or B or one of the following:\nOperating a motor vehicle while the person\u2019s license to do so has been suspended or revoked as a result of the person\u2019s conviction of an offense under IC 9-1-4-52 (repealed July 1, 1991), IC 9-24-18-5(b) (repealed July 1, 2000), IC 9-24-19-2, or IC 9-24-19-3.\nOperating a motor vehicle without ever having obtained a license to do so.\nFor example, a person with nine speeding tickets and one OWI conviction in a 10-year period will be subject to a five-year suspension as an HTV.\nOPERATING A VEHICLE WHILE SUSPENDED AS An HTV\nIndiana law states that an individual who has been convicted of operating a vehicle while suspended as an HTV may have his/her driving privileges suspended for a period set by the court.\nOperating a vehicle while intoxicated or with a blood alcohol content in excess of the legal limit is a criminal offense and has an immediate and significant effect on your privilege to operate a vehicle. If a law enforcement officer has probable cause to believe that a motorist committed an offense under IC 9-30-5, IC 9-30-6, IC 9-30-9, or IC 9-30-15, the officer may ask the motorist to submit to a chemical test to determine the amount of alcohol in the person\u2019s system. A motorist for whom a judge has found probable cause to exist while he or she was operating a vehicle and while intoxicated may face a suspension of driving privileges.\nA motorist who fails a chemical test may have his or her driving privileges suspended for up to 180 days\nA motorist who refuses to submit to a chemical test will face a suspension of driving privileges for up to two years\nIn addition to a probable cause suspension, a court may suspend a person\u2019s driving privileges following a conviction for operating while intoxicated. The suspension periods may be longer for repeat offenders. Penalties for this offense may include conditions placed on your driving privileges.\nIf the motorist is eligible, the court may issue an order for specialized driving privileges. The court may also require the installation of an ignition interlock device, which mechanically tests the driver\u2019s blood alcohol level before his or her car can be started.\nWhen a driver who is younger than 18 years of age is cited for operating a vehicle while intoxicated, the Juvenile Court may recommend a suspension of his or her driving privileges.\nSend us an email about common traffic violations",

        "raw_content": "Home / Iran / The Middle East / Yemen / OPINION | Iran\u2019s Low Cost Gambit in Yemen by Adam Patterson\nOPINION | Iran\u2019s Low Cost Gambit in Yemen by Adam Patterson\nIndraStra Global Monday, November 23, 2015 Iran , The Middle East , Yemen Edit\nBy Adam Patterson\nSimilar to the ongoing crises in Iraq and Syria, the conflict in Yemen has effectively devolved into a proxy war between Saudi Arabia and Iran. Although the theater in Syria is complicated and multifaceted, the civil war in Yemen has a relative polarity. However, the seeming simplicity of the sectarian breakdown between Shi\u2019ite and Sunni combatants belies the external pressures that influence the ongoing strife throughout Yemen.\nIn terms of open martial antagonism, the combatants are broadly aligned along sectarian parameters, with even the local al-Qaeda insurgents gaining a reputation for alliances of convenience with the Saudi military. The tribal-based Houthi movement, Ansar Allah (Partisans of God), has been receiving its own external assistance. The Houthi rebels, who practice the Zaidi sect of Islam (a subsection of Shi\u2019ism that is similar to Sunnism in many respects), have received assistance from Iran\u2019s Quds force, which has also played a major role in backing the Assad regime in Syria, a host of Shi\u2019ite militias in Iraq, and Hezbollah in Lebanon.\nThis leaves a sort of Sunni-Shi\u2019ite axis along which most of the fighting breaks down, and an ongoing catalyst for armed escalation throughout the region. In this framework, many of the ongoing tensions are defined by each party\u2019s either covert or explicit allegiance to the power players in Tehran or Riyadh. What ensues between Saudi Arabia and Iran is a prolonged power struggle that is neither a direct engagement nor a sort of cold war, but one that rests within some tenuous middle ground of ongoing proxy war maneuvering.\nRiyadh and Tehran\u2019s geopolitical relationship is a classic example of two powers vying for whatever upper hand can be found irrespective of auxiliary factors. Questions around military escalation in foreign countries are only relevant if they are too taxing for either Saudi Arabia or Iran (damage to local civilian populations or infrastructure is a tertiary consideration at best). One of the primary factors that makes this pattern of engagement so easy for both parties is that potential allies and antagonists can be divided neatly along sectarian lines. Saudi Arabia has found it easy to ally with Sunni insurgents, while Iran has found amenable Shi\u2019ite partisans in Hezbollah and the Syrian Alawites.\nSaudi Arabia occupies a relatively privileged geographic position in the Middle East, insofar as Daesh (\u201cIslamic State\u201d) is much more menacing to the Syrian and Iraqi governments. There has been relatively little attack from Daesh along the Saudi border as the group seizes territory previously under regime control. Thus curtailing the group has remained a lesser priority for the House of Saud.\nThere has been longstanding speculation that sources within Saudi Arabia have been backing and supporting Daesh through various covert means, in part because their belligerence in Syria and Iraq has whiplashed against the Iranian-backed regimes in Damascus and Baghdad. One of the longstanding and most withering criticisms of Saudi foreign policy is that Riyadh has made a habit of exporting Wahhabism and jihadi extremism as a political weapon, which has spilled into lands as far away as Chechnya and Indonesia. This has insured the dual leverage of friendly elements (or militias) in outside states, as well as a sort of counter-pressure against potentially unfriendly governments.\nIran\u2019s gambit in Yemen seems to represent a sort of counter to this. Yemen\u2019s strategic value to foreign policy decision makers in Tehran lies in Iran\u2019s ability to bring the conflict, in a very real sense, into Saudi Arabia\u2019s backyard. They have much to gain, and very little to lose, by exacerbating the conflict that festers south of the Saudi border. The kingdom has remained wary of serious commitment of ground forces, and their airstrikes appear to be coordinated so as to in part benefit the local al-Qaeda insurgents (another instance of implicit Saudi support for militant Wahhabi proxies). However, the Houthis have been steadfast in combating the Sunni insurgents, and there appears to be no indication any sort of drawdown will be happening in the near future. This has drained Saudi defense resources, forcing them to redirect a substantive portion of their military spending and air power at a conflict whose resolution will offer them little more than a return to regional stability once suppressed. Beyond that, there are no grand tactical or political benefits, nothing enormously momentous or positive that can be feasibly carried beyond the theater in Yemen.\nThis represents an ideal investment for Iran in terms of undermining Saudi reach in the Middle East. At this juncture, Tehran has very little to lose by exacerbating the Yemeni conflict. Though in no way parallel phenomena, a resolute and defiant Houthi insurgency would also provide counter-pressure against the Saudis to match the Sunni insurgency that is wearing down the Tehran-backed regimes in Syria and Iraq.\nHowever, the outlook for the Houthi rebels and their effective alliance with Iran remains unpredictable. Saudi Arabia has made a policy of aggressively closing off flight and maritime space, making it difficult if not outright impossible for Tehran to supply the Houthi rebels. Meanwhile, Iran\u2019s behavior suggests that the ongoing strife in Yemen serves a propaganda purpose. Tehran\u2019s power players are attempting to subvert the longstanding (and arguably dubious) contention that Iran is uniquely disruptive or destabilizing to the Middle East as a whole, and doing so by arguing that Saudi Arabia\u2019s embargoing of aid to Yemen is cruelly indifferent to the plight of the Muslims who live within its borders. As Riyadh and Tehran compete for the hearts and minds of Arabs, building up Saudi Arabia as a callous and self-interested brute could be potentially valuable for Tehran, especially as the kingdom is seen by many in the region as the main backer of Daesh in Iraq and Syria.\nThe Saudi air campaign has had a devastating impact on the people of Yemen. Various estimates place the vast majority of blame for the well over 2,000 civilian casualties in the past six months on the Saudi-led coalition. The kingdom has effectively declared entire cities to be military targets, indiscriminately razing entire neighborhoods. This has only fed into Iran\u2019s ongoing condemnation of the House of Saud, with Tehran leveraging the line that the Saudis are amoral power players with a nihilistic attitude toward the lives of their fellow Muslims. In the midst of this, Saudi Arabia is stuck with both the civilian refugee aftermath of the conflict as well as the consequences of prolonged and heavy military investment.\nThroughout the summer of 2015, Iran\u2019s actions vis-\u00e0-vis Saudi Arabia pivoted toward a withering agitprop, with both Iranian policymakers and media entities conflating Saudi Arabia\u2019s actions with Saddam Hussein\u2019s brutality, as well as persistently broadcasting a reel of harrowing war footage. Given the harsh conditions that many Yemenis face as the Saudi-led coalition continues to bomb the country, it has been easy for Iran to use the conflict as a means of portraying Al Saud as callous. Many of the Saudi airstrikes seem to be executed with the sole intent of industrial sabotage . There was a report of warplanes hitting a water bottling plant in Hajja province which is part of a greater pattern that could harm civilians more resoundingly than military forces. Certain dispatches indicate that Saudi airstrikes have effectively flattened entire neighborhoods.\nRecent evidence indicates that the diplomatic polarity between Houthi rebels and Hadi loyalists is becoming even more entrenched with Saudi-backed president-in-exile Abdrabbo Mansour Hadi announcing in early October that he was severing all diplomatic ties with Iran. This seems to present a final marker that the separation between the Houthis and Hadi loyalists is definitely drawn along Saudi-Iranian lines. This recent diplomatic termination came on the heels of the Saudis capturing an Iranian fishing vessel destined for Yemen, which turned out to be loaded full with arms intended for the Houthi rebels. This latter pattern is an especially useful tactic for Iran, because a full embargo blocks both humanitarian aid as well as weapons shipments - and a ship seemingly carrying food and medical aid could also be stowing hidden arms stockades.\nIran and Saudi Arabia are in no position to immediately curtail the power of the other, but Iran\u2019s gambit in Yemen could portend a greater shift in the soft power of both countries, at least in terms of their association and image. Saudi Arabia has apparently been aggressively hustling for PR experts and general public image consultants in Washington, a sign that this aspect of their diplomatic edge could well be waning.\nU.S. President George W. Bush famously hailed Iran as an alleged member of the tripartite \u201cAxis of Evil.\u201d Since 2014, Iran has made open business of countering Daesh in both Iraq and Syria by directly assisting both local governments, as well as by supplying and propping up Hezbollah in Lebanon and backing the group in Syria. Hezbollah\u2019s efforts and the more covert actions of the Quds force have been instrumental in fighting Daesh on multiple fronts. If Saudi Arabia\u2019s connections with localized Sunni insurgency are ever revealed as serious and pronounced, their image as reliable diplomatic partners could be tainted while Iran\u2019s is burnished.\nAdam Patterson (O-3505-2015) is a Washington, DC-based analyst of international security topics, with a special focus on insurgency and conflict in Arab states.\nThis article was published by Gulf State Analytics on November 18, 2015",

According to the survey, the index is at 102.3, which is an increase over the mid-year 2006 results.\nThe study is conducted semi-annually and includes responses from individuals active in the market\ufffdcarriers, brokers, and vendors. Like other confidence indices, the Voluntary Industry Confidence Index is a single number that compares the current results to a baseline measure. The first Confidence Index survey was completed in December of 2005; the results from that survey serve as our \ufffdbase\ufffd year (meaning the index was at 100 for that year). For mid-year 2006, the index was at 101.2.\n\ufffdThe increase in the index to 102.3 today is largely due to the more positive results (based on means) for the industry\ufffds sales expectations for the next 12 months,\ufffd says Gil Lowerre, president of Eastbridge. Survey respondents were very positive about the outlook for voluntary product sales with over 98 percent expecting sales to increase over the next 12 months. Twenty-eight (28) percent believe that sales will \ufffdincrease a lot.\ufffd\n\ufffdThe market is also more positive about their expectations for profitability,\ufffd adds Bonnie Brazzell, vice president. When asked if voluntary carriers will be more profitable 12 months from now, 43 percent of the respondents answered \ufffda little more\ufffd profitable. \ufffdThis was slightly higher than the 40 percent from the mid-year survey,\ufffd notes Brazzell. Another 10 percent expect the industry to be \ufffdmuch more\ufffd profitable. The total percentage of respondents expecting higher profitability was 53 percent, the highest percentage of any of the Confidence Index surveys.\nEmployee enthusiasm regarding voluntary (another component of the index) was stable and showed no significant change in the most recent survey.\nThe Voluntary Industry Confidence Index report is available only to Eastbridge Insight and Information Partner companies as well as to participants. The survey will be conducted again in July of 2007.

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Industry News, News \u00bb Average USA Auto Insurance Rates on the Rise for the First Time in a Year\nAverage USA Auto Insurance Rates on the Rise for the First Time in a Year\nCLEVELAND, OH \u2013 May 1, 2008 \u2013 For the first time in a year, car insurance rates are on the rise, according to a study by Insurance.com, the largest online auto insurance agency in the United States. The company expects auto insurance rates to continue to move up at least through 2008, which means consumers will need to be even more savvy shoppers as they try to keep their car insurance rate low.\nThe study analyzed lowest auto insurance quotes to consumers from more than a dozen insurance companies during the first quarter. Insurance.com\u2019s quarterly Car Insurance Rate Report found that the lowest car insurance quotes, on average, increased 1.05% over the previous quarter, rising from $1811 per year to $1830 per year. This increase marks the first time in a year that rates have inched up. Rates fell or held steady in 2007, marked by a 5.2% decrease in auto insurance rates in fourth quarter compared to the same period the year before.\nCar insurance rates vary by state, and some states experienced rate quote increases in the first quarter that were many times greater than the average. Florida and Ohio, for example, saw rates jump 6.6% and 4.8%, respectively.\n\u201cWhile some of the rate increases we are seeing in the first quarter are relatively small, they represent a turning point for auto premiums, which had been holding steady or declining over the past four quarters,\u201d said Dave Roush, CEO of Insurance.com. \u201cWe have seen all of the major auto insurance carriers reporting an increase in the average amount paid on bodily injury claims, fueled by rising medical costs. Historically, this factor has signaled the beginning of a national upward trend in rates, and we think we\u2019ll continue to see rates bump up through 2008 and maybe into 2009.\u201d\nTo be sure, individual states, companies or industry groups might report annualized increases that are still quite small, as their data reflects the past 12 months, when rates fell or held steady. The Insurance.com data, however, is real-time, representing the real-world experience of consumers who have gotten an online or phone quote for auto insurance in the last 3 months.\nIndustry experts have long observed that the property/casualty insurance industry is cyclical in nature, with periods of soft market conditions, during which premium rates are stable or falling and insurance is readily available, followed by periods of hard market conditions, where rates increase and coverage may be more difficult to find. The last time the auto insurance industry experienced such a challenging market, characterized by increasing rates, was from 2001 through 2004.\nAmong the top 10 states seeing the sharpest increase in car insurance rates in the 1st Quarter were Florida (up 6.6%), Ohio (up 4.8%), Pennsylvania (up 4.2%), Georgia (up 3.2%) and Texas (up 2.4%).\nStates seeing the sharpest decline in auto rates include Kentucky (down 7.6%), Maine (down 5.5%) and North Dakota (down 4.3%).\nThe most expensive auto insurance quotes were in Louisiana ($2674), Washington, DC ($2515), and New Jersey ($2499). These annual rates were twice as high as those quoted to drivers in Wisconsin ($1237), Iowa ($1276) and Ohio ($1278).\n\u201cInsurance costs generally represent about 5% of the full cost of operating a car, so increases in car insurance rates \u2013 on top of rising gas prices \u2013 will hurt consumers across the board,\u201d added Roush. \u201cThis is the perfect time to comparison shop and take advantage of every opportunity to save money. There are some very good strategies that consumers can follow that potentially add up to hundreds of dollars a year in lower rates.\u201d\nTime-tested tips like maintaining good credit, driving safely, and upping your deductibles remain valid strategies for lowering your auto insurance rate. Here are some additional, off-the-beaten-path money-saving suggestions for consumers looking to minimize the impact of increasing auto rates.\nEarn an early shopping discount\nMany auto insurance companies offer discounts to your premium if you shop well in advance of your current policy expiration date. If you were considering switching companies, and give your new auto insurance company enough notice (usually two weeks) before your current policy is up for renewal, you might receive significant savings on your new policy.\nLook for \u201cgood student\u201d discounts\nSome auto insurance companies offer discounts to policies with teen drivers if they have a B or better grade average at school. Of course, proof of those good grades is required, but good students can sometimes help parents save as much as a 10-15% on car insurance.\nSome companies offer a discount for a Defensive Driving Course, usually if taken within 3 years. So, you\u2019ll get a double bonus \u2013 you can learn ways to avoid accidents \u2013 and save money on your car insurance at the same time.\nShop for auto insurance before buying a car\nThe cost to insure different cars can vary as much as the cars themselves. Insurers base premiums on a number of factors including crashworthiness, repair costs and theft rate.\nData about each measure is available from the Highway Loss Data Institute at http://www.iihs.org.\nComparison Shop \u2013 Online\nComparison shopping online can save you time and money. The key to shopping online is to know when you\u2019re getting a \u201cquick quote,\u201d which is just an estimate, and a real, bindable online auto insurance quote. There can be a big difference between an estimate and the final rate you are charged. Insurance.com provides consumers with real-time accurate, comparative and bindable auto insurance quotes from over a dozen leading insurance companies, and the ability to buy a policy quickly online.\nLearn more by viewing the Insurance.com Car Insurance Rate Report at www.insurance.com.\nABOUT THE CAR INSURANCE RATE REPORT\nInsurance.com\u2019s latest Car Insurance Rate Report highlights the lowest average car insurance rates quoted to consumers visiting Insurance.com in the first quarter of 2008. The rates consumers viewed, but didn\u2019t necessarily purchase, come from auto insurance quotes consumers received as they shopped and compared rates from over a dozen of the nation\u2019s leading auto insurance companies. Over the course of a year, Insurance.com provides online car insurance quotes to more than 1 million people visiting the website. While the Car Insurance Rate Report is a broad indicator of pricing activity in the personal auto insurance marketplace, it is not a comprehensive index as it reflects only the quotes of carriers that have participated in the Insurance.com platform in the states where it quotes (all states except Alaska, Hawaii, and Massachusetts).\nInsurance.com is the leading online independent auto insurance agency in the United States. Consumers can instantly compare quotes from top auto insurance companies by completing one application at our website, www.insurance.com. To buy a policy, consumers have the option to complete the transaction online or speak with a licensed agent.

That is to make it more practical for municipal politicians and MPs to consider whether they want to jump to provincial politics.\nDix announced in September he would stay on as leader until a successor is chosen, and at the time he said that would take place before the middle of next year. The May vote was picked after discussions with the party\u2019s current MLAs and local constituency presidents, but it still must be approved by the NDP provincial council.\nNo candidate has formally announced, but several are considering a run. They include veteran Port Coquitlam MLA Mike Farnworth, who finished second to Dix in 2011, and caucus newcomers Judy Darcy, George Heyman and David Eby, all of whom represent Vancouver constituencies. Vancouver Island MLA Rob Fleming and Skeena-Bulkley Valley MP Nathan Cullen have also said they are weighing their chances.\nJuan de Fuca MLA John Horgan, who finished third behind Dix in the 2011 vote, announced last week he will not make another run for the top job. Horgan said he wants to see a new generation of leadership get the attention of members after the party\u2019s upset loss in the May 2013 election.\nThe B.C.

        "raw_content": "Blog What They Didn't Teach You In Law School: Representing Client With Diminished Capacity\nWhat They Didn\u2019t Teach You In Law School: Representing Client With Diminished Capacity\nMichael E. McCabe, Jr. October 6, 2015 Communications, Competence, ConfidentialityLeave a Comment\nIn recognition of Mental Health Awareness Week, the focus this month on \u201cWhat They Didn\u2019t Teach You in Law School\u201d is on representing a client with diminished mental capacity. According to the leading mental health organization in the country, 1 in 5 adults in the United States suffer from some form of mental health condition or disorder. Thus, it is likely that at some point in your legal career, you will be representing an individual client, or a representative of a corporate client, who suffers from some degree of mental illness.\nABA Model Rule of Professional Conduct 1.14 addresses client-lawyer relationships where the client suffers from a mental illness or diminished capacity. Rule 1.14 states as a general rule, \u201cthe lawyer shall, as far as reasonably possible, maintain a normal client-lawyer relationship with the client.\u201d That, of course, may be easier said than done. If an attorney believes his or her client suffers from a mental illness, the pivotal question to consider is whether the client cannot adequately act in the client\u2019s own interest.\nIf the client cannot act in his or her own interest, then an attorney \u201cmay take reasonably necessary protective action, including consulting with individuals or entities that have the ability to take action to protect the client and, in appropriate cases, seeking the appointment of guardian ad litem, conservator or guardian.\u201d Note the absence of mandatory \u201cshall\u201d language for appointing a guardian. According to the Center for Public Representation, many jurisdictions recommend guardian appointment as a last resort, as clients may see such an appointment as a betrayal or breach of trust or the duty of confidentiality.\nOne bar has explained that an attorney for a disabled client will be held to a higher standard of responsibility: \u201cAs the difficulty of the situation increases, so too does the lawyer\u2019s responsibility. \u2018For every degree that [the lawyer] by his testimony and evidence proved a less than normal mental and functional capacity on the part of his client\u2026he raised by an equivalent degree the standard of conduct which the Court must require of him in his dealings with the client.\u201d Alabama Ethics Opinion RO-95-03.\nAt the same time, an attorney \u201ccannot be disciplined for any action that has a reasonable basis and arguably is in his client\u2019s best interests\u201d Alabama Ethics Opinion 95-06, quoting Hazard and Hodes, The Law of Lawyering.\nInstead, attorneys should implement means to support the client and ensure an effective legal decision making process. A two-prong test may be useful when determining the existence and degree of a client\u2019s mental illness:\n(1) \u201ctake reasonable steps to optimize capacity;\u201d and\n(2) \u201cperform a preliminary assessment of capacity.\u201d\nDuty To Assess Client\u2019s Mental Capacity\nAttorneys should be aware of mental illness symptoms to spot a mental illness when representation commences. This, again, may be easier said than done. After all, most attorneys are not trained in mental health assessment. And the younger or less experienced the attorney, the more difficult it usually will be for the attorney to determine if their client is suffering from a mental illness that affects their capacity to such a degree that the client is unable to understand the lawyer\u2019s advice or make informed decisions.\nThe issue must be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. Attorneys at the very least should, in the normal course of speaking with their client, be able to determine that there may be an issue of the client\u2019s capacity. If an attorney remains uncertain about a client\u2019s mental state after a preliminary assessment, then the attorney may need to consult the help of a mental health professional. If an attorney does not discover a mental illness until after representation commences, the attorney should take steps to ensure the client\u2019s interests have been preserved. Indeed, contracts and other legal documents may be considered invalid if the client did not possess the requisite capacity at the time the document was executed. And if that should ever occur, it is likely that the person who will be blamed for the invalid instrument is the lawyer, under the theory the lawyer was negligent in failing to properly assess his or her client\u2019s mental health and either knew, or should have known, that the client was incompetent.\nOne authority explains that perhaps the clearest and most enduring articulation of client capacity remains that of the President\u2019s Commission for the Study of Ethical Problems in Medicine and Biomedical and Behavioral Research, enunciated in their seminal 1982 report: \u201cDecision making capacity requires, to greater or lesser degree: (1) possession of a set of values and goals; (2) the ability to communicate and to understand information; and (3) the ability to reason and to deliberate about one\u2019s choices.\u201d\nWhether to Seek a Guardian for a Client\nA lawyer may seek a guardian for a client under a disability, \u201cor take other protective action with respect to a client, only when the lawyer reasonably believes that the client cannot adequately act in the client\u2019s own interest.\u201d Model Rule1.14(b). As the language of the Model Rule underscores, and as numerous State Ethics opinions emphasize, seeking a guardian for a client should happen only if the client is incompetent, and even then should only be the last resort. It is an option, and never mandatory, unless the attorney seeks to withdraw from the representation of an incompetent and otherwise unprotected client (in which case the attorney\u2019s duty will be to bring the matter to the attention of the tribunal so that an appropriate guardian may be appointed to protect the client\u2019s interests).\nBad Client Decisions Do Not Equate With Incompetence\nClients are entitled to make bad decisions. A lawyer is not to seek a guardian for a client because the client displays bad judgment, makes imprudent choices, or disagrees with the attorney\u2019s assessment of his or her best interest. \u201cThe lawyer has an absolute duty to advocate for client\u2019s desires even if, in the lawyer\u2019s opinion,those desires are against the best interests of the client.\u201d Alaska 94-3. The test is not whether the client is acting in his or her own best interests, but, as Model Rule 1.14(b) makes clear, whether the client can act in his or her own interest at all, a far more difficult standard to meet. As the Connecticut Bar stated:\nRule 1.14(b) does not authorize the lawyer to take protective action because the client is not acting in what the lawyer believes to be the client\u2019s best interest, but only when the client cannot act in the client\u2019s own interest. A client who is making decisions that the lawyer considers to be ill-considered is not necessarily unable to act in his own interest,and the lawyer should not seek protective action merely to protect the client from what the lawyer believes are errors in judgment.\nConn. 96-404.\nOther State Ethics opinions agree on the standard that a guardian should only be sought if the client is incapable of acting in his or her own interest, rather than when the client has acted against his or her own interest. For example, Michigan has clarified that it is appropriate to seek appointment of a guardian \u201cwith respect to a client with a history of mental illness who has refused to accept a personal injury settlement or pay for its appeal if the lawyer reasonably believes the client cannot adequately act in the client\u2019s own interest. Such action does not involve a conflict of interest.\u201d Michigan RI 76 (1991).\nProper Conduct With Diminished Capacity Client\nOnce an attorney determines whether a client has a mental illness and takes the proper legal precautions, the attorney should also consider his or her behavior toward the client as the representation continues. For any client, effective representation goes far beyond the bare minimum legal and ethical requirements. Effective representation requires communication and understanding.\nAn instructive ABA article identifies the various types of mental illnesses that lawyers may encounter and how attorneys may provide the most effective and beneficial representation to their client, organized by type of illness. The article addresses clients with dementias, psychotic disorders, more mild \u201cfunctional disorders\u201d primarily involving depression and anxiety, personality disorders, and disorders involving substance use.\nAttorneys representing a client with a mental illness should constantly evaluate whether the client is capable of acting in his or her own interest, and adjust representation accordingly. As another ABA publication reminds attorneys representing clients with mental illnesses, \u201cwe are in a position to help people who trust us and seek us out for advice\u201d regardless of a particular client\u2019s mental state.\nMental illness affects millions of adults in the United States. For more information and resources about mental health issues, contact the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI).\nTags:ABA Model Rule 1.14, client with diminished capacity, client with mental illness, diminished capacity, mental health, mental health awareness week, what they didn't teach in law school",

        "raw_content": "ISB hosts its first Teacher Recruitment Fair\nOne hundred and forty applicants attended the International School of Beijing's (ISB) first Teacher Recruitment Fair on Saturday.\nFurther swelling the ranks of excellent teachers ISB can draw upon to ensure great learning for its students, the event was hosted on campus to identify top talent and showcase the school's campus, its staff, students, and ethos to those interested in joining the community.\nThe applicants came from Beijing, China, Southeast Asia and further afield to be interviewed for positions and get information on the school. Facilitating contact between applicants and lots of different members of the ISB leadership team, it was a chance for ISB and its senior staff to hone their recruitment practices.\nAn Information Fair offered advice on the school's coaching program and professional development opportunities, as well as on the practicalities of working in Beijing. Students led campus tours supported by Admissions personnel, and Human Resources Director Mimi Lee gave a presentation on how to look for a job at an international school.\nISB was mainly recruiting for staff for the 2019-2020 academic year, but also to identify candidates who may be a good fit for other openings.\nMs. Lee explained how a fair is an effective means of recruiting. To filter the best-qualified and most talented candidates, there is screening of CVs before the fair, as well as at the event \u2013 in a process she compared to speed dating because it involves people presenting themselves to lots of potential suitors face to face and having their credentials assessed on the spot.\n\"There may be candidates who emerge as big enough rock stars that a principal will say, 'I want to sign you right now,'\" Ms. Lee said.\nBut if candidates didn't walk away with a job offer, it will still have been a valuable experience for them and for the school in making contact with them, she stressed. \"We want to make clear that ISB is warm and welcoming. Our intentions are to help build careers.\"\nISB hosting its own recruitment fair is an innovative way of finding talent in response to a changing jobs marketplace. The school's HR director said, \"We spend so much time attending overseas recruitment fairs, which takes a lot of energy and resources, and we wonder, 'Was it worth it to have missed all that time away from school, when the majority of recruiting happens through direct referrals and, increasingly, locally?' So we decided, 'Why not hold our own local job fair?' We know that the interest is out there locally.\"\nMs. Lee said she hoped this innovation also set a good example for students \u2013 \"It makes clear that our school is looking outwards and seeing how we can do things differently. This in itself is modeling to our community that ISB is always trying new things. We're not afraid to take risks.\"\nApplicants who attended the fair were glad they came.\nOne candidate who described herself as an international third-culture kid said, \"I really enjoyed the fair. I had a great tour guide who took us around and explained the different learning environments. I was especially impressed by the dual-language classrooms and the different resources that ISB has for Chinese and English.\"\nAn American already in Beijing teaching chemistry said, \"I'm not here to interview per se, but to get a sense of ISB's values, meet people and better understand the international teaching network. My first impression is that ISB is a very valued player in the international school community. My second impression is that everybody is so friendly! The staff are clearly very happy here and invested in their students and the subjects they teach.\"",

        "raw_content": "Air Quality: Energy, Environment and the Economy\nMany factors shape air quality, including weather and natural phenomena such as volcanoes and forest fires. Pollution travels around the world; winds transport pollutants in and out of the local environment. Sunlight interacts with natural or man-made chemicals in the air to enhance or inhibit the creation of pollutants. Heat and humidity can intensify the impact of pollution.\nHuman-made air toxins and pollutants\u2014both regulated and unregulated\u2014from stationary (smokestack) and mobile (vehicle emission) sources damage air quality. Vehicles produce the largest amount of air pollutants in Northeast Florida. Jacksonville relies on non-renewable energy sources for energy production and transportation, primarily coal and fossil fuels that produce CO2\u2014a major greenhouse gas implicated in climate change\u2014 which is an issue of special concern to Florida because of its low elevation and vulnerability to tropical storms.\nUnregulated suburban sprawl with the resultant ever-increasing commute times and the insufficient use of mass transit and its lack of availability on a regional basis lead to more people driving their own cars and more pollutant emissions. Northeast Florida lacks vigorous regional growth management and transportation planning.\nWhile this study, which began with a focus on air quality and air pollutants, does not attempt to address directly the connection between human activities and climate change, it became clear that many of the corrective actions proposed by responsible organizations to reduce carbon dioxide emissions and other toxic pollutants would also result in improved overall air quality, creating a win-win outcome. Furthermore, as the study proceeded, a number of major developments came to light:\nthe Supreme Court ruled that the Environmental Protection Agency must regulate carbon dioxide emissions;\nthe Florida Legislature created the Florida Energy Commission\u2014with an advisory group on Climate Change\u2014to create a state energy policy;\nFlorida Governor Charlie Crist has called on the Legislature to allocate money for research on alternative energy sources, including solar power and fuels such as biodiesel and ethanol; and\nthe public has expressed increasing alarm about the potential impact of climate change.\nTitle: Air Quality: Energy, Environment and the Economy\nURL: https://www.issuelab.org/resource/air-quality-energy-environment-and-the-economy.html",

        "raw_content": "General Health and Wellness, Genital/Urinary, Health Prevention, Infectious Disease, Obstetrics and Gynecology\nThe Smart Condom as STI Protection\nThis Straight, No Chaser looks at an innovative use of condoms protecting you from STIs: the smart condom.\nIn the news is the concept of the smart condom, a prophylactic meant to identify the presence of STDs in real-time (meaning during sex). Let\u2019s think this through. First, knowing this was developed by a group of teenage students is fascinating and raises a lot of questions, a few of which I\u2019ll ask and answer. I would love to have been in the room during the first production meeting just to enjoy the dynamic between the kids and the adults\u2026\nSo! We\u2019ll make this \u201csmart condom.\u201d It\u2019s going to detect various STDs!\nCynical, Straight, No Chaser-type doctor: Well, what would really be smart is getting checked for STDs before the decision is made to have sex.\nNope. You\u2019ve got to meet people where they are. No one has time for that!\nSo what you\u2019re saying is folks will engage in foreplay during which the condom will be used as a dipstick to determine the presence of a STD.\nNo, Doc. Nobody\u2019s stopping during foreplay! During sex, the condoms will glow various colors if a STD is detected. Let\u2019s say green for chlamydia, yellow for herpes, purple for HPV (human papilloma virus, the cause of genital warts) and blue for syphilis.\nWhere do I start\u2026 so the condoms will glow during intercourse. Are we expecting the participants to take an immediate break during the initiation of sex to check on this?\nOr how about this: if you have a green glow, how do you know chlamydia is present instead of a combination of syphilis and herpes (because a mixture of blue and yellow pigments produces green)? Keep in mind, the individual with one STD is much more likely to have multiple STDs.\nPlus, I\u2019m not sure of the utility for HPV. About 75% of us have it anyway and there\u2019s no treatment. This is another argument for prevention even more than detection.\nSigh. Why are you being difficult? It\u2019s better for people to know whenever they can, so the STD can be identified and people can be prompted to go in for evaluation!\nYou could be right, and it\u2019s good to protect the innocent, but your premise flies in the face to the reality of many individuals prone to contract STDs.\nThey tend not to use condoms at all.\nTheir behavior isn\u2019t curbed by the presence of an STD.\nKnowledge of an STD isn\u2019t necessary a prompt for treatment for an STD.\nAnyone conscientious enough to use a smart condom is probably smart enough to have gotten him or herself and any partner tested prior to engaging in sex.\nWell do you have any better ideas?\nActually, I support the idea as an option. Anything used to help identify STDs is a good public health initiative, and even periodic use by allegedly monogamous couples would be a good deal. But could we enhance it? How about a electric zapper connected to the condom prompted by the chemical reaction? If the condom was really smart, it would make you stop having sex!\nDoc, don\u2019t you have a patient or something to do?

        "raw_content": "Photo by Jean Fordyce\nChelsea! Chelsea! The crowd at Hat City Kitchen could not get enough of her at her mega CD release party last month. She was joined by bands Airacuda and Garden State Line and a supportive community.\nAfter her passionate performance I was able to meet the sweet and talented singer/songwriter and have a talk about her new project, The Broken Road and her musical journey.\nP.R.: Talk about the new album, The Broken Road.\nChelsea Carlson: The Broken Road is my debut album, and a culmination of pretty much my entire music career up until this point. Over the years, I had released a bunch of singles, but never that full on album -- and it\u2019s always been a dream of mine! After successfully funding my Kickstarter campaign, I finally got to make that dream a reality. I was so lucky to work with Dave Pirrocco of JackedCat Productions on the album, as well as the many amazing musicians who collaborated and brought my acoustic songs to life in a full band setting. Even though I\u2019ve primarily been playing as an acoustic soloist for the past few years, I really wanted to go back to my rock band roots and have the album feature a band! The name of the album, The Broken Road, is referring to the crazy road my musical journey has taken me on so far -- there have been lots of bumps, bends, ups, and downs, but it\u2019s all been totally worth it and made me the musician I am today. The album is really a reflection of everything I\u2019ve accomplished so far, and a celebration of all the wonderful experiences I\u2019ve had as a musician.\nDescribe your musical journey.\nMy musical journey has been going on for basically my whole life. I began singing and writing songs when I was just eight or nine-years-old. I formed a \u201cband\u201d with my cousins when we were still in elementary school -- and actually, this all took place right down the street from Hat City Kitchen at my old house on Riggs Place in West Orange. I really started taking music more seriously when I was in high school, and ultimately decided to pursue it as a career when I was a teenager. I started off my college experience at Berklee College of Music in Boston, where I studied bass, and after returning home for the summer after my freshman year, I began doing the singer-songwriter thing and gigging across the New Jersey area after having primarily played in bands before that. I ended up having such a great time and finding so much success that summer that I decided not to go back to Berklee, and to continue working to build my music career right here at home. By 2013, I had played nearly 200 shows at places such as the Bitter End and Black Potatoe Music Festival, and had released a few original singles, and I was awarded Top New Female Act at the Jersey Acoustic Music Awards that year. Afterwards, I started working towards creating my album and entering this new phase of my career.\nHow do you feel about the Taylor Swift comparisons? What makes you different?\nHaha! A lot of people say I remind them of Taylor Swift, probably because we\u2019re both blonde and play acoustic guitar. I have mixed feelings about it. On one hand, it\u2019s kind of funny because people expect me to sound like Taylor Swift, and I am about as far from that genre as possible, and usually people are pleasantly surprised when I turn around with a Led Zeppelin cover instead of \u201cShake It Off.\u201d I might play the same instrument, but that\u2019s about where the similarities end -- simply put, I play rock, she does not. But it can get to be overkill sometimes -- as a musician, you want to be recognized for your own music, and not for the music of someone you happen to look like.\nTell us something about yourself your fans may not know or expect about you.\nHmm\u2026 When I first got into music, I actually didn\u2019t listen to much rock or pop music at all. Like, I \u201cliked\u201d certain bands, but when I would sit down and blast music just for the fun of it, it was actually movie scores. Not the soundtracks featuring pop songs -- the orchestral compositions you heard in the background of movies! John Williams was basically my hero. It wasn\u2019t until high school that I started getting into the bands my friends were into.\nWho are your biggest inspirations? Musically or in your life?\nMusically, I\u2019m influenced be a wide range of artists. I\u2019m definitely a classic rock person -- Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, and the Beatles are what got me into playing rock and have definitely been a big influence. But I like a lot of modern rock music too; I love the Foo Fighters and Grace Potter. I don\u2019t want to box myself into one genre though and I really like a lot of different types of music. I love Adele\u2019s vocal style and Christina Perri\u2019s songwriting, and definitely think they are some really big influences of mine as well. In terms of people in my life inspiring me, I\u2019m always been really inspired by other local artists. New Jersey has a really amazing music scene, and I\u2019ve gotten to meet and hear so many awesome musicians and songwriters who really inspire me to try new things musically and to collaborate.\nI would say I\u2019m \u201cmodern singer-songwriter meets classic rock.\u201d I try to blend a bunch of different genres of music together to create something new and unique. I don\u2019t listen to just one type of music, so I would find it really difficult to just make one kind of music (haha)!\nI\u2019m guessing you mean my style of dress? Girls who play rock are always expected to dress a certain way -- either you\u2019re expected to look like an 80\u2019s hair metal band groupie or you\u2019re expected to look like Hayley Williams circa 2008. I don\u2019t really want to fit the rocker-girl clich\u00e9. I\u2019ve always marched to the beat of my own drum when it comes to style. Kind of like my music, I float between styles -- I\u2019m sort of 1970\u2019s rocker meets Woodstock hippie meets modern-day Brooklyn hipster. Obviously, I\u2019m just really indecisive (haha)! Just kidding, I just like to wear things I like, and I like a lot of different styles. So I kind of mix them together and make something a bit different from the norm.\nHow do you like performing at Hat City Kitchen? How does it compare to other venues? What has it done for your music career?\nI love playing at Hat City Kitchen! Like I mentioned earlier, I grew up so close to the venue that it\u2019s always like a homecoming when I get to play there. That\u2019s something that I can\u2019t get anywhere else! It\u2019s a fantastic place to play -- the stage is amazing, the staff is great. Honestly, it\u2019s always been one of my favorite venues. The first time I played there was at an open mic back in 2012. I\u2019m so happy that I\u2019ve had multiple opportunities to perform at Hat City Kitchen over the years, and I\u2019m really glad that my CD release was there. It was an incredible night and Hat City Kitchen has my thanks!\nWho has been instrumental in your career and how?\nSo many people have been incredibly helpful and supportive in my career. I\u2019ve gotten to meet so many amazing musicians, venue owners, booking agents, producers, teachers -- and they\u2019ve all lent their help throughout the years and given me so many fantastic opportunities. My parents have always been such huge supporters of my music. I was so young when I started doing this, and they have always been there to help me get all over the tri-state area for shows, help with the business end of things, and of course just believe in me. Since starting the recording process for The Broken Road, my producer Dave Pirrocco has also been a huge help not only with the actual recording, but with promotion and so many creative ideas.\nWhat advice would you give aspiring musicians?\nGet out there and play! Seriously, if you only know three songs, go out and play those three songs! I knew about six songs on guitar at the first solo gig that I performed. The best way to do something is, well, to do it! The more you play, the more people you\u2019ll meet, the more experiences you\u2019ll have, and the more you\u2019ll be able to develop your sound. I think shows like American Idol wrongly project the idea that you can just be elevated to fame overnight -- and that just doesn\u2019t happen. It takes a lot of work and dedication, and if you\u2019re going out there and trying to make it happen, it will happen!\nWhat can we look forward to now that your album is out?\nI\u2019m going to be booking a ton of new shows, and hopefully will be performing with a band more often! I\u2019ve played acoustically and solo for a really long time now, and want to get back to my roots of playing with a band, especially since it was such an incredible experience playing with a band at my release show! I\u2019ve still got about a month before The Broken Road hits the Internet market, so I\u2019ve still got some plans brewing before the album is totally released. I definitely am going to keep playing and spreading my music, and see where it takes me!\nWhat is your favorite song to perform and why?\nThat\u2019s tough -- I play so many songs, it\u2019s hard to choose a favorite! If I had to pick one, it would be \u201cNothin\u2019 but the Water\u201d by Grace Potter & the Nocturnals. It\u2019s an a cappella, gospel type song. It has been part of my set at just about every single show I\u2019ve ever done since the very beginning of my musical journey, and it always feels weird if I don\u2019t get a chance to sing it! In fact, it became such a staple part of my set list that I decided to record a cover of the song for The Broken Road. I\u2019ve always loved the feel of the song and it is such a great way to end a performance, it\u2019s always so much fun to sing.\nWhat else would you like to add to the interview?\nYou can find me at www.chelseacarlsonmusic.com as well as on Facebook (facebook.com/cecmusic), YouTube, Spotify, Instagram, and just about everywhere else! My album is currently available as a physical CD in my web store (www.chelseacarlsonmusic.bandcamp.com) and will hit iTunes, Spotify, Amazon, etc. for streaming and downloads next month!\nPhotographs by Jean Fordyce\nPatricia Rogers, #ValleyGirlNJ lives in New Jersey's Valley Arts District.

(photo credit: MARC ISRAEL SELLEM)\nPolice investigators have uncovered evidence that Jerusalem Deputy Mayor Meir Turgeman committed bribery, fraud and breach of trust, the Israel Police said on Sunday, after completing its investigation into Turgeman and other senior municipality officials.\nThe investigation focused on public corruption and was conducted by the Lahav 433 National Crime Unit, in cooperation with the Income Tax Authority in Tel Aviv and the State Attorney\u2019s Office for Taxation and Economics. A large number of people including Turgeman were questioned, some of them under caution, about several incidents.\nThe deputy mayor is suspected of having committed bribery, fraud and breach of trust, as well as an offense involving theft.\nThe findings of the investigation \u201craise the suspicion that Turgeman received benefits equal to money in exchange for the advancement of the benefit of others, in violation of the law,\u201d according to a statement released by police.\nThe investigation file will be transferred to the State Prosecutor\u2019s Office for review and a decision on possible indictments.\nTurgeman is suspected of having accepted bribes to advance the interests of construction entrepreneurs in several Jerusalem locations, including the historic Post Office building on Jaffa Street and the Artemisia events hall in Talpiot.\nTurgeman is said to have used his power to influence the Municipal Site Preservation Committee to allow for the breaking of walls in the historic building front. In return, one of the suspects allegedly signed a loan guarantee for Turgeman.\nTurgeman announced in February that he intended to run for mayor in the October municipal elections.\nUdi Shaham contributed to this report.",

        "raw_content": "1991 Alfa Romeo 164 - An Everyday Car\nThere's nothing unique or special about this 1991 Alfa 164 with an automatic transmission. It's just a nice car.\nIn my opinion, the 3.0 liter Alfa V6 is one of the nicest V6s ever made. It's powerful, revable (a new word, I guess) and, with a bit of preventative maintenance, reliable.\nA 20+ year old design, the 164 body still looks good and contemporary.\nCompared to the previous Alfa sedans we received here in the US, the interior was well designed and well laid out. It still featured enough Alfa quirks to keep it interesting, though.\nThe car being offered on Craigslist has just 39,000 miles on it. The asking price is $2500.00. The seller, the car's second owner, has all service records and is including a service manual.\nThis would be a great \"everyday car\". The 164 is, by Alfa standards, a reliable car. Check out eBay and Craigslist and you'll find plenty with well over 150K miles on them. Alfa also seemed to get a handle on rustproofing with the 164. Rust is nowhere near the issue it was with previous Alfas. Parts are getting tougher to find and you'll need to find a good independent Alfa mechanic in your area as there are no more dealers, but a few calls to other Alfa owners in your area should get you all the info you need. Alfa owners are usually a friendly, helpful bunch of people.\nFor around $4500.00 you could buy a decent used Hyundai, Honda, Toyota, Chevy, etc. Me? I'd buy this Alfa for $2500.00 and put $2000.00 in a savings account, just in case something expensive needs to be replaced.\nA 20 year old Alfa, even one with an automatic, is 20 times more fun to drive than any used Hyundai, Honda, Toyota, Chevy, etc., will ever be. Isn't that what owning a car is all about?\nLocated in Chapel Hill, NC, click here to see the Craigslist ad.\nThe worst thing about the 164 (if talking about a non S or LS car) is the Windshield, try to find a replacement. If you were to find one, it would likely cost between 1/3 and 1/2 the price of the car.\nThat said, I really like the way the 164 looks but couldn't get over the fact that the engine sits sideways and drives the wrong wheels.\nI did, however, try to get my wife to drive one. She ended up in a '99 Subaru Outback instead. Which is probably better, as it is really nice to have a wagon. Though she (and I) does miss the power that our previous Volvo Turbos had.",

        "title": "When the Flu Turns Deadly | Kaire & Heffernan, LLC",
        "raw_content": "When the Flu Turns Deadly\nMost people who get the flu have no real problems. They run a fever, have a dry cough, and feel pretty lousy for a few days, then they get better. However, that is not the case for everyone. For years the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) provided a single figure statistic of 36,000 flu related deaths per year in the United States. However, recently they have determined that this is not an accurate representation because flu seasons vary in severity and length. This impacts not only how many flu related deaths occur in a single season, but also the actual number of flu cases. To accommodate these fluctuations, the CDC now recommends using a range with a low of 3,000 to a high of 49,000 for flu related death statistics.\nWhile the CDC does monitor influenza, it is usually difficult to get an exact number of flu related deaths each year due to the following factors:\nThere is no state mandate requiring the reporting of seasonal flu cases or related deaths of adults over the age of 18 (children do have to be reported)\nInfluenza is not often listed as cause of death on death certificates of people who die from complications of the flu\nFlu related deaths often occur up to two weeks after the person was initially infected and they may have developed a secondary, related infection or the flu exacerbated an existing chronic condition such as COPD or congestive heart failure\nMany people who have the flu aren\u2019t tested for it and by the time they seek medical care or the condition has become life threatening, the virus cannot be detected by nasal swabs\nThis highlights a very important message. Even if you have had the flu in the past and had no complications, it is still possible to get it again or get a different strain and have problems. The flu isn\u2019t like chicken pox; you don\u2019t develop a natural immunity to if once you\u2019ve had it.\nFlu symptoms can often mimic the symptoms of other conditions like cold or even a sinus infection. It often starts with a fever, although not everyone with the flu will have a fever. They may also experience chills, muscle aches, body aches, and extreme fatigue. A dry cough is also a hallmark symptom, along with a sore throat and a stuffy, runny nose. Many people with the flu also complain of headaches, ranging from mildly irritating to excruciating. Some people also experience nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea, although this tends to be more common in children.\nIt is also possible to pass the flu on to others before you even know you are sick. In most healthy adults, the period of contagion is 1 day before the symptoms start and can go as long as 7 days after you become sick. People who have weakened immune systems as well as children may be contagious for an even longer period of time. Most people experience flu symptoms for an average of 2 days. However, it can run between 1 and 4 days.\nComplications from the Flu and When to Call the Doctor\nMost people get the flu, it runs its course, and all is well. There are some people, though, who experience complications of the flu. This can include sinus infections, ear infections, bacterial pneumonia, and dehydration. It can also cause chronic medical conditions like diabetes, asthma, COPD, and heart failure to become worse. Children are more susceptible to flu-related complications, particularly those under five years of age. According to the CDC, around 20,000 children in that age group are hospitalized each year for complications relating to the flu.\nThere are certain symptoms that indicate there may be a problem. Seek immediate medical attention if you see any of these symptoms:\nFever with rash\nInability to wake up or extreme difficulty waking up\nBluish tint to skin\nNot interacting\nFlu symptoms subside and the child seems to get better, but then the flu symptoms return with fever and cough is worse\nPressure or pain in the chest or abdomen\nDizziness that comes on suddenly\nPersistent or severe vomiting\nFlu symptoms subside and the adult seems to get better, but then the flu symptoms return with fever and cough is worse\nWhen you feel flu symptoms coming on, especially if you are in a high risk category, see your doctor and follow his or her instructions to the letter. If you notice any of the symptoms mentioned above or if something just doesn\u2019t feel right, trust your instincts and see your doctor.

        "raw_content": "The only way we can stay with something for a sustained period of time is if we are clear in our intention and our motivation. And for some people and for some things we need to remind ourselves on a daily basis.\nSo when people miss something or forget to do something or decide not to do something, I would always say there\u2019s a pretty good chance at some level our motivation has changed or slipped or we\u2019ve forgotten what our initial intention was. So I would go back to that intention. What is it? Why am I doing this? What do I want from this? And really kind of examining that hard. Really examine the intention. And if you do, you\u2019re not going to miss it. If you find what\u2019s behind the action, you\u2019ll follow through on the action.\nIt\u2019s easy to forget the reasons we initially decided to do the things that we do. We start to make a change because there is something we care about enough to do something to include more of it in our lives. But in the day-to-day experience of work or relationships, the original inspiration and motivation can quickly become lost in distractions, difficult situations, and differences between expectations and reality.\nJust pick something to work on. Write something, draw something, program something, animate something, sew something. It doesn\u2019t matter. Anything that your heart is drawn to.\nSet an intention for this activity: I\u2019m doing this out of compassion for others, out of love for myself, to meet my commitment to so and so.\nNow get started: begin actually doing it. Don\u2019t worry about whether you\u2019ll do it for 10 minutes or an hour. Don\u2019t worry about how good you\u2019ll be at it, or what people will think of it, or whether you\u2019ll succeed or not. Those are not relevant to the task.\nIntention is an important part of mindfulness practice. The idea is to set an intention for what you\u2019re going to do, or set an intention for the day ahead. Then, regularly reflect and remind yourself of the reasons you\u2019re meditating, writing, working, or whatever it is that you\u2019re doing. What is important to you and why? What effect does this have on yourself? What effect does it have on the people around you? What is the thing that you think is cool about what you\u2019re interested in, the thing that makes you excited just thinking about it? Why are you drawn to doing this?\nI was forty years old, and I\u2019d invested a lot of time and effort into something that didn\u2019t seem to be working. But the thing that got me through that moment, and any other time that I\u2019ve felt stuck, is to remind myself that it\u2019s about the work. Because if you\u2019re worrying about yourself\u2014if you\u2019re thinking: \u201cAm I succeeding? Am I in the right position? Am I being appreciated?\u201d\u2014then you\u2019re going to end up feeling frustrated and stuck. But if you can keep it about the work, you\u2019ll always have a path. There\u2019s always something to be done.\nIn other words, there will be a million distractions from the core reason you\u2019re doing what you\u2019re doing, but by taking the time to clear the mind and refocus on why you really care about what you\u2019re doing you can always find a way to move forward. When you start something new, take the time to clarify for yourself why you\u2019re doing it. And when you\u2019re in the middle of being lost in actually doing it, take a break to remind yourself why you started.",

Care coordination is the organization of patient care activities among two or more providers (including the patient\u2019s family) involved in children\u2019s care to facilitate the appropriate delivery of medical and family support services.\nData Source: Child and Adolescent Health Measurement Initiative, Data Resource Center for Child and Adolescent Health, National Survey of Children with Special Health Care Needs; as cited in Children with Special Health Care Needs in California: A Profile of Key Issues, Lucile Packard Foundation for Children\u2019s Health (Jan. 2013).\nFootnote: Children with special health care needs are defined as those who have or are at increased risk for a chronic physical, developmental, behavioral, or emotional condition and who also require health and related services of a type or amount beyond that required by children generally. For more information, see the report in the Data Source above.\nLearn More About Quality of Care for Children with Special Health Care Needs\nMeasures of Quality of Care for Children with Special Health Care Needs on Kidsdata.org\nChildren with special health care needs (CSHCN) are defined as those who have or are at increased risk for a chronic physical, developmental, behavioral, or emotional condition and who also require health and related services of a type or amount beyond that required by children generally. On kidsdata.org, indicators related to quality of health care for CSHCN include:\nChildren who receive care that meets federal minimum quality standards, overall, by race/ethnicity, by type of insurance, and by complexity of health care needs\nReceipt of effective care coordination, overall, and by complexity of need\nReceipt of family-centered care, overall, by income level, by race/ethnicity, by type of insurance, and by complexity of need\nChildren whose families feel engaged in shared decision-making with providers, overall, by type of insurance, and by complexity of need\nReceipt of care within a medical home, overall, by age, by income level, by race/ethnicity, by type of insurance, and by complexity of need\nThese data come from the National Survey of Children with Special Health Care Needs and the National Survey of Children's Health, which are conducted through telephone interviews with parents. Depending on the indicator, data are available for California, the U.S., all states other than California (including the District of Columbia), and/or geographies with at least 70,000 residents (as local area synthetic estimates based on American Community Survey data from the U.S. Census Bureau).\nCSHCN account for more than 40% of all health care costs among children nationwide, despite making up only about 16% of the U.S. child population (1). Though advances in medical care have extended and improved the lives of millions of children, obtaining timely, appropriate, and affordable care remains a problem for many families. More than four in five CSHCN do not receive one or more basic aspects of quality health care, in California and nationally (1). Increasing access to quality care is critical to improving the health and well being of CSHCN. As these children depend more on the health care system than children without special needs, the quality of health services has a greater impact on their lives and their families\u2019 experiences (1, 2).\nIn 2009-2010, 84% of children with special health care needs (CSHCN) in California did not receive care that met federal minimum quality standards. Also nearly half (47%) of the state's CSHCN did not receive effective care coordination. CSHCN with more complex health needs, who may need more help coordinating services, were less likely to get help with care coordination than CSHCN with less complex needs (46% vs. 70%, respectively).\nIn addition, according to 2011-2012 estimates, less than 36% of the state's CSHCN receive care within a medical home\u2014a basic level of care that is ongoing, comprehensive, coordinated, and family-centered\u2014with estimates for some counties as low as 30%. CSHCN with private health insurance were more likely to receive care within a medical home (47%) than those with public insurance (25%) in 2009-2010.\nCalifornia CSHCN are less likely to have families who feel engaged in shared decision-making with health care providers than CSHCN in other states (62% vs. 71% in 2009-2010).*\nAccess to family-centered care\u2014a fundamental part of quality care\u2014is a challenge for CSHCN who have more complex needs or who are low income, of color, or publicly insured. For example, 52% of African American/black CSHCN and 59% of Hispanic/Latino CSHCN received family-centered care in 2009-2010, compared to 70% of white CSHCN in California.\n* Child and Adolescent Health Measurement Initiative.

Thanks, Farmboy for posting this on the TWIS forums.\nSmack it, Hector!\nAlso, it seems that the robot domination theme is becoming much more of a cultural meme.

I think there should be a public Festival of Drunkeness this year.\nThe ancient Egyptian festival in honor of the Lion Goddess Mut is thought to have taken place once yearly around the time of my birthday (end of July, beginning of August \u2013 good excuse for a party, historical and celebratory). During the days long festival people would drink to excess and have wild sexual encounters in the hopes that they would eventually pass out and commune with the Goddess.\nThe Goddess during this time was being offered a beer colored red like blood to calm her violent tendencies and bring her into a drunken stupor. It seems as though the logic went something like, \u201cHey, if the Goddess is drunk and I\u2019m drunk, then we should be able to have a great conversation.\u201d I guess it worked considering the common folk weren\u2019t suppoesed to be able to commune with the Gods and Goddesses. That was a job for the high priests. However, it seems more likely that the conversations were more of the kind you overhear in a dive bar than honest to goodness spiritual communing. But, then again, what really is the difference.\nSo, this festival brought the Goddess down to a human level, allowed the common folk to invite her into a conversation, and enabled people to do things they weren\u2019t allowed to do during the rest of the year; namely, get drunk and screw.\nInterestingly, there were people assigned to the roles of chaperones, the Mistress of Drunkeness being one. These people had to make certain that no one injured themsleves during the festivities, and to make sure they all had too much to drink. Remember, the main goal of this party was to pass out.\nI swear this facet of ancient Egypt is sounding more and more like a fraternity.\nThe Egyptologist behind all this fascinating information is named Betsy Bryan, and the progress of her team in Egypt can be tracked on their diary-like website.",

        "raw_content": "LISTEN: May is Mental Health Awareness Month. In 2014 voters in Bernalillo County voted in favor of a tax for increased mental health services. This came after the shooting by police of James Boyd, a homeless man who had schizophrenia, as well as other shootings by police of people who struggled with mental illness. The tax went into effect in 2015 and is providing up to $20 million annually for new programs through the Bernalillo County Behavioral Health Initiative. Our guests include Katrina Hotrum. She is the Behavioral Health Director for Bernalillo County and Rodney McNease, administrator of behavioral health services at the University of New Mexico. UNM is one of the partners working with the county on this effort. There will be a Mental Health Awareness Day event on Tuesday, May 24th on Civic Plaza in Albuquerque.\nWe also check in with the staff of the Daily Lobo student newspaper about stories they\u2019re covering on campus with Matt Reisen, outgoing news editor for the Daily Lobo, and Celia Raney, incoming news editor for the Daily Lobo.\nNonprofits Cut Services In Arizona While Expanding Into New Mexico\nBy Elaine Baumgartel \u2022 Feb 28, 2015\nAnother Arizona-based behavioral health provider is planning to shut down operations in New Mexico.

Unusually high flows during the late 1970's and through the 1980's have increased the average size of the lake, helping to create one of Arizona's best Bass fishing holes.\nFishing tournaments are common at the lake and anglers have an excellent opportunity to catch bluegill, largemouth bass, channel catfish, and black crappie.\nCampgrounds are available at Alamo Lake State Park providing full hookups, dump station, restrooms and showers, boat launching, and swimming.

A consequence is an increased population with a survival expectancy long enough to carry a lifetime risk for anthracycline-related cardiotoxicity. The potential for cardiovascular problems in many paediatric patients and adults treated with anthracyclines will become apparent in coming years. This cardiotoxicity risk and the requirement for surveillance or intervention increase the cost of health care and compromise quality of life. Since the anthracyclines will continue to be widely used, cardiotoxicity preventative strategies are urgently needed.\nAlthough doxorubicin is primarily considered a TOP2 poison, under certain conditions it can also bind covalently to DNA. This mechanistic switch is controlled by cellular formaldehyde availability. Supplementation of cellular formaldehyde levels using esterase-activated formaldehyde prodrugs switches the mechanism of action of doxorubicin from TOP2 poisoning to covalent DNA adduct formation.\nWe have observed that the formaldehyde-releasing prodrug AN-7 augments anthracycline anticancer potential while simultaneously reducing cardiotoxicity. We are seeking to identify the mechanism by which formaldehyde-activated anthracyclines protect cardiac cells from undergoing cell death. Although the anthracycline cardiotoxicity problem has been well known for decades, anthracycline covalent lesions have never been examined in the context of this problem.",

        "raw_content": "Supporting OROGEL in core brand values identification and sustainability reporting\nOROGEL \u2013 one of the major Italian food group- has devoted itself to produce healthy products in the full respect of people and the environment.\nIn 2013, the Group asked our help to learn how to effectively communicate their sustainability efforts to their customers, through a sustainability reporting system.\nSustainability is strongly related to a brand\u2019s core values. In order to proceed to effective reporting, there is a need for identifying the brand\u2019s core values and how sustainability interacts with them \u2013 namely, how sustainability is embedded into the business strategy.\nLCE helped OROGEL to defining its core sustainability values and to develop its first sustainability report. One-to-one interviews were performed with members of the different Group\u2019s areas (research&development, quality&safety, marketing, environment, etc.) to identify the core values of OROGEL brand. Then, the Group\u2019s sustainability initiatives were recollected into thematic areas related with the brand\u2019s core values. Finally, LCE helped OROGEL in structuring the report according to the specific needs.\nSince 2014, OROGEL autonomously drafts its annual sustainability report. The reporting system is aligned with the core brand values, and information is presented categorizing initiatives into thematic areas (e.g. product freshness and quality, workers\u2019 rights, and respect for the natural environment).\nOUR ADDED VALUE:WHAT THE CLIENT SAYS ABOUT US\n\u201cGood technical support to the editing of the sustainability report with a major focus on enhancing all the activities taken to improve our environmental performances.

        "raw_content": "As I mentioned in June, I'm in Knoxville this week to take four days of classes with Donald J. Wheeler, Ph.D. I've long admired Dr. Wheeler and his work and I was thrilled when he wrote the foreword to my latest book.\nOne lesson from Understanding Variation is to not overreact to a report about a single data point.\nI recently saw this headline:\nBaseball on pace for lowest batting average since 1972\nJust because it's the lowest average in 48 years\u2026 it doesn't mean that this year's MLB-wide batting average is low in a way that's statistically meaningful.\nWhat can we do? Go get the data. As Wheeler says, \u201cwithout context, data have no meaning.\u201d As I've done before, I go to baseball-reference.com to find the annual MLB-wide averages.\nIf we did what we see in many workplace reports, we'd report something like \u201cthe 2018 batting average of .249 is lower than last year's average of .255.\u201d But, we have to, as always, be careful about comparing two data points. Is that lower batting average something that represents a meaningful \u201csignal\u201d or is it just \u201cnoise\u201d in the data?\nWhat can we do? Plot the dots. Even a simple run chart for recent years tells us more than a comparison of two data points:\nIf we create a Process Behavior Chart with an average and calculated Natural Process Limits for these seasons starting in 2010, the 2018 number is above the Lower Limit, so it's not a signal in and of itself:\nBut what if we get more data and more context? Here is the Process Behavior Chart that I created going back to 1950 (an admittedly arbitrary date). I calculated the average the limits for the first 25 years. We can see how averages have shifted over time. It's not a single predictable system over time. Things have changed in the game of baseball:\nBelow, I've shifted the average and limits over time as those changes appeared to occur. We know we have sustained shifts in performance when eight or more consecutive years are above or below the established average (and we look for points outside of the limits).\nA Process Behavior Chart only tells us something has changed. It doesn't tell us WHAT changed. We need to understand our system. In a Lean workplace, we'd go to the gemba.\nIt seems that the shifts occurred:\n1963 \u2013 shift downward (why?)\n1973 \u2013 shift upward (maybe because the Designated Hitter was added to the American League?)\n1993 \u2013 shift upward again (due to the \u201csteroid era?\u201d)\n2010 \u2013 shift downward (due to PEDs being driven out of the game an increase in defensive shifts?)\nIt's not worth asking \u201cwhy was the batting average higher or lower?\u201d when those data points are in the realm of noise. It is worth asking why the system changed when we see signals in the metric.\n2018's average is low for this century. It's not historically low if you go back more than 50 years.\nZooming in on the last years, the 2018 average of .249 is just above the lower limit of .248. It's not a signal.\nBut, as the game evolves (more defensive shifts, more emphasis on home runs and power pitchers), is 2018 the start of yet another shift downward in major league batting averages or will it fluctuate back up next year? Only time will tell.\nLearn more about how to create and use \u201cProcess Behavior Charts\u201d in this blog post or my book.\nBaseballPBC Case StudiesProcess Behavior ChartsSportsWheeler\nComments and discussion on LinkedIn, including some \u201cWheeler-isms\u201d I posted as comments to this post:\nHere is the spreadsheet (XLS via Dropbox)\nBrian Patterson says 5 months ago\nAnother interesting discussion that could be had is in deciding where to determine when a process change has occurred. For example 1969 could be used as the start of a new period in the chart since MLB lowered the pitching mound in response to the perception that pitchers had an unfair advantage. Or 2003 with the publication of Moneyball and the shift in evaluating players that de-emphasized traditional statistics such as batting average. Or maybe 2008 as it was the first season after the publication of the Mitchell report. And of course there are other points such as expansion years and others that I\u2019m sure I\u2019m missing.\nGood question on determining where a process changed. When doing a retrospective chart, you can see signals or evidence of shifts. And then you can ask, \u201cWhat happened?\u201d\nOr you can say, \u201cI know there were changes\u2026 did it appear to have an immediate effect?\u201d\nYou\u2019re right about that change in 1969, but I don\u2019t see a signal in the chart there. The MLB batting average was indeed higher in 1969 compared to 1968, but it\u2019s in the range of common cause variation \u2013 it appears to be noise.\n\u201cMoneyball\u201d certainly started the trend of emphasizing On-Base Percentage over Batting Average. The chart suggests the last downward shift started in 2009. I doubt the drop in batting average was a result of the financial crisis or President Obama getting elected :-)\nHere is a Run Chart that shows batting average and on-base percentage together. Visually, they look very correlated. The calculated correlation factor for 1950 to 2018 is 0.93 (where 1.0 is perfect correlation). The correlation from 2010 to 2018 is just 0.73, which maybe isn\u2019t surprising with an increased emphasis on drawing walks (which increases OBP).\nHere is that data in Excel if you want to play with it.\nThanks for sending the data along. I\u2019ll try have to take a look at it. Although it\u2019s fantasy football season and I\u2019m knee deep in trying to figure out the signal and noise in the various predictions available for drafting players. :)",

        "raw_content": "[Media Release] The Lee County Tax Collector\u2019s Lehigh Acres Service Center Supports the Senior Paws Sanctuary\nFORT MYERS, Fla. (July 18, 2018) \u2013 Old dogs may not be able to learn new tricks, but they can get a new lease on life. The Lee County Tax Collector\u2019s Lehigh Acres service center supports the Senior Paws Sanctuary, a Lehigh Acres-based nonprofit organization that provides urgent care and foster homes for older dogs and dogs with severe medical conditions.\nThe tax collector accepts donations of food, towels or other pet-friendly items at the service center on 3114 Lee Blvd., where informational displays are set up. The service center also sells candy bars for $1 to benefit the organization, raising more than $1,500 since the initiative began in May 2017.\n\u201cWe have a commitment to service, and our staff felt strongly that Senior Paws Sanctuary was deserving of our support,\u201d Lee County Tax Collector Larry Hart said. \u201cAnimals enrich our lives in so many ways. When our team goes this far to help local animals in need, it\u2019s just one more way to show the community that, \u2018We\u2019ve got your back.\u2019\u201d\nSenior Paws Sanctuary relies entirely on donations and volunteer help. The costs involved with its mission are staggering \u2014 the organization spent $40,000 in veterinary medical bills alone last year, according to John Goldsberry, who assists his wife, Debbie, in running the sanctuary. A single heartworm treatment could cost as much as $2,000, he said. Add in food, cleaning supplies and a litany of other costs, and the need becomes profound.\nOlder dogs are generally more expensive to treat, and people who adopt dogs tend to prefer puppies or younger adult dogs, Goldsberry said. That means a lot of shelters end up having to put down senior dogs, a reality that inspired Debbie Goldsberry to create the sanctuary, which takes in senior dogs from across Lee County. The sanctuary has no hard or fast rules on the age of the dogs. The aim is simply to treat older dogs who need care.\n\u201cThere are all kinds of rescues out there that will rescue poodles, dachshunds, greyhounds and other particular breeds,\u201d John Goldsberry said. \u201cWe don\u2019t exclude any dog because of breed. We won\u2019t do that.\u201d\nThe fundraising initiative is ongoing at the tax collector\u2019s Lehigh Acres service center, and everyone is invited to assist the organization through its website at seniorpawssanctuary.com or on the Senior Paws Sanctuary Facebook page",

It contains an overview of some methods used for mitigating the risks and describes potential hazards of LNG and LPG, and summarizes various techniques to minimize their risks on the vessels, at terminals and jetties, combined operating practices and procedures, contingency planning. The presentation starts with some historical background.\nThe marine transportation of LPG started before the World War Two and was conducted in the pressurized containment and in relatively small quantities. Transportation of LNG started several years after that, in 1959. Today, there are more than thousand of gas carriers. The major hazard associated with the marine transportation of all liquefied gases is not their liquefied form but rather the vapor released. The heat is released, subsequently, that may ignite and cause fire.\nWith regard to the possible pollution of the marine environment, liquefied gases are neither toxic nor persistent so shall not be considered water pollutants; however, possible explosions was obviously cause lethal effects to various marine organisms - but in general the environmental hazard is less than the one of the crude oil spills...",

        "raw_content": "P is for... Piano\nThis week my P is for Piano and as you've probably come to expect by now, there's a twist. This one is covered in astro-turf, I'm not exactly sure why but it's definitely a talking point!\nThe piano is outside the Blackheath Conservatoire which is Blackheath's local independent arts centre founded in 1881 by William Webster, who also founded the Blackheath Halls (next door). We're off to the Blackheath Halls later in the year to hear Monty Don speak and I'm just a little bit excited by that already...\nAnyway according to the Conservatoire's website they \"provide a broad mix of music, art, drama and cultural classes to over 1,200 people between the ages of 0 to 90 each week!\"\nWhile the buildings are Grade II listed and make up the oldest surviving purpose built multi-arts complex in London, the people behind the Conservatoire are clearly up for some quirky-ness, which is great to see.\nThis piano's been around since the summer of 2012, although I only spotted it this summer (yes - it's amazing what you see when you actually look) and this summer they have introduced a beach, which must have been great fun in the fantastic summer we've had.\nSo there you have it, a bit of history and information about the culture in Blackheath!\nAs usual I'm linking this post with Charly over at PODCast so pop over there to see what other people have chosen for their P!\n\u2190 A new light, the Statue of Liberty and a timely reminderA glut of cucumbers... means cocktails! \u2192",

        "raw_content": "3 Shocking Case Studies Proving LinkedIns Marketing potential\nWe have told you countless times that LinkedIn is one of the best platforms for marketing and promoting your business or brand. However, we know that empty words doesn\u2019t count as much.\nSo, in order to be credible, we have compiled three case studies that prove the importance and powerful benefits of LinkedIn for marketing. After reading this article, we are certain that you will be on this platform, and will eventually skyrocket your business to new and successful heights.\nSo, without further ado; let\u2019s get started.\nShocking Case Studies\nIf you live in American then you might have already heard about American Institute of CPAs, AKA, AICPA. It is the biggest organization in the world containing top accounting professionals.\nWhat AICPA did was remarkably productive.\nDue to the loss of exchange of information among the peers, the firm found it necessary to create a community that allows their members to engage, share resources and exchange relevant knowledge as well.\nThe purpose of this community-building platform for their members was to enhance their social media skills as well as provide a smooth transition of information for an increased productivity.\nInstead of creating a tool for it, AICPA created a group (and subgroups) for their members on LinkedIn. They later used LinkedIn Display Ads along with other social media platforms to promote the availability of group to its members. For AICPA, it became a successful asset.\nToday, more than 60,000 members of AICPA are regularly sharing their insightful discussions and exchanging relevant information in the group. But that\u2019s not it.\nAICPA got more than it envisioned. Now, their leading traffic driver is the same LinkedIn group that they created for their members. It is also playing a big role in creating brand awareness of the firm. This clarifies how powerful LinkedIn can be, if utilized the right and effective way.\nDue to the loss of exchange of information among the peers, the firm found it necessary to create a community that allows their members to engage,\nshare resources and exchange relevant knowledge as well.\nBI Worldwide is undoubtedly one of the leading experts (in the entire world) when it comes to business engagements such as marketing and advertising. So, it was not shocking when we heard that a marketing agency took their company page followers from 2,000 to 14,000.\nTo make it a reality, BI Worldwide shared useful, relevant and informational content with its followers. This lead to an increase in engagement and brand awareness, which in return, increased their high quality leads by 26% (from LinkedIn Display Ads).\nAlso known as HP, this technology based company has become a pioneer in its niche.\nIf you didn\u2019t know, HP was incepted in 1939, in a rented garage, and now it\u2019s known among the top brand when it comes to computing device such as computers, smartphones, and more.\nHowever, what made HP jump into another\nera of its significance was the year 2010; with the launch of its Company Page on LinkedIn. The purpose of this launch was to drive leads, create recommendations for its products and services, and increase conversion rates in an affordable manner. An active page, and LinkedIn Recommendation Ads did what they wanted to achieve.\nHP was bombarded with 2,000+ product recommendations within the first two weeks and 20,000+ new followers were added to its company page at the same time.\nIts LinkedIn campaign went so viral that it generated over 500,000 LinkedIn updates and doubled the traffic of HP\u2019s products and services website page.",

        "title": "Serious Fraud Allegations: A Barclays Bribe? \u2014 LittleLaw",
        "raw_content": "In 2008, Qatar Holdings (a company owned by the Qatari government) invested around \u00a34 billion in Barclays as part of an \u00a311 billion fund raising process at the height of the financial crisis. Barclays accepted this as it sought to avoid needing a government bailout, like Lloyds and RBS had required. Since accepting the money, Barclays paid \u00a3322 million to Qatari Holdings, purportedly for the provision of \u201cadvisory services\u201d that the company had provided. The Serious Fraud Office (SFO) has since investigated Barclays, claiming that the bank provided unlawful financial assistance to Qatari Holdings. The SFO has argued that this agreement is a sham, and was only in place to give Qatari Holdings financial assistance to invest in Barclays. The SFO is now charging Barclays and several senior executives with unlawful financial assistance and fraud.\nThis is the first jury trial in the world of a major bank\u2019s chief executive over the events during the financial crisis, and follows one of the highest profile fraud investigations in the history of the UK. As such the outcome will be watched closely, particularly as the bank avoided a government bailout only due to this investment.\nThis case also demonstrates some of the drawbacks of the UK\u2019s regulatory regime for financial services, showing that investigation and prosecution can take many years to come to fruition. This case has only gone to trial almost 11 years after the alleged wrongdoing.\nThe rules against financial assistance are designed to prevent companies offering incentives to investors to purchase shares in the company. The aim is to maintain a level playing field between investors, by preventing more favourable terms being offered to one investor but not others. Maintaining this level playing field is a fundamental principle of capital markets.\nOne of the key points of the case has been the attitude of Barclays\u2019 lawyers, who have been described as having \u201cpersuaded themselves\u201d that there was no illegality in the deal made with Qatari Holdings. They have argued that the agreement was legal, so long as some services were provided to Barclays by the Qatari company.",

        "raw_content": "By Joanne Kehoe, Little Star Center mom to Anthony\nWhat has been the biggest challenge in finding services for your child? In the beginning, our biggest challenge was finding out what was possible for Anthony. He was in First Steps, but he aged out when he was 3 years old. Then, he started at a developmental preschool at our local public school. We found that, at the public school, there seemed to be very little knowledge about kids with autism, and we were extremely disheartened. A family friend, a psychiatrist at Riley, mentioned Little Star to me. We went to Little Star and liked it, and began the process of finding out how we could get insurance to cover it. Since my husband works for the federal government and their insurance plan is self-funded, they do not have to provide coverage for ABA therapy. A mom at Little Star gave me contact information for her insurance (representative) and we were able to get Anthony his own policy so that he could get his ABA therapy covered.\nHow did you overcome that challenge? We were lucky that so many people were willing to share information from their lives to help us move through ours. If we left it up to the public schools or the state \u2013 people who are supposed to help us \u2013 we would still be struggling!\nHow has Little Star Center provided support to your family? When Anthony started at Little Star, I remember very clearly when his program manager came to our house and asked us what we wanted for Anthony. We wanted him to be able to attend church and communicate with us so we could help him. I will never forget sitting at my kitchen table with the program manager and being amazed that these things were possible.\nAnthony is the oldest of four children, and his younger sisters Maria and Veronica, ages 6 and 5, have been welcomed at Little Star for sibling play and they love it. It has gone a long way for them to see that Anthony is not the only person they know with autism.\nDuring the last year, when we have been fighting with our insurance company, doctor and, seemingly, everyone about coverage for ABA therapy for Anthony, only the people at Little Star have been there to support us. They have offered financial support so that Anthony could still go to Little Star and not have his schedule disrupted. The people at Little Star have gone above and beyond what I would expect anyone to do for Anthony and we can\u2019t say how much we appreciate it.\nYou could have chosen other ABA facilities for your child. What makes Little Star Center stand out from other ABA facilities? Little Star is the only facility we know of where they put the child first, give him what he needs, and not focus solely on making money and billing.\nFor what are you most grateful at Little Star Center? We are grateful to have people working with Anthony who not only know what they are doing, but who truly love and care about him. We know that the (concern) they have for Anthony is at the basis of all of the care they give us and we are forever indebted to them.\nTags: ABA facility, ABA therapy, autism, parenting a child with autism\nA tribute to Santa Grant provides iPads to assist non-vocal learners at Little Star \u2013 Indiana...",

Borrow lots of money.\nThe best rate personal loans are offered to customers with a good credit rating and who want to borrow a significant amount of money. The less you borrow and the more chequered your financial past, the more expensive your loan is likely to be.\nThe best rate personal loans are generally offered to people who want to borrow large sums of cash, and who have a decent credit rating. Interest rates are grouped into bands, with the highest APRs for loans of less than \u00a32,000 and the best APRs for loans of more than \u00a310,000.\nTo take advantage of the best rate personal loans it's often a good idea to increase the amount of money you borrow, so for example if you're considering borrowing \u00a32,750 you'll benefit from a much lower APR if you increase the borrowing amount to \u00a33,000. Needless to say, though, you shouldn't borrow more money than you can afford to repay.\nIf you have a bad credit history then you'll find that the best rate personal loans won't be available to you, even if mainstream lenders are happy to consider your application: the APRs quoted are \"typical\", which means they're offered to customers who meet specific criteria such as a high credit score. If your credit history is less impressive, you'll find that the APR you're offered is likely to be higher than the typical rate.",

        "raw_content": "October 1, 2018 at 11:50 am PST | by Staff reports\nKevin Spacey named in new civil complaint in Los Angeles\nKevin Spacey (Photo by Vonora; courtesy Bigstock)\nOut actor Kevin Spacey was named in another court filing reported on by Tribune Media/Deadline this past week alleging that the actor had sexually assaulted a massage therapist.\nIn the explicit 11-page document filed in Superior Court for Los Angeles Sept. 27, the unnamed \u201cJohn Doe\u201d claims that \u201cSpacey assaulted and battered plaintiff by forcing plaintiff to touch his scrotum, testicles, and penis, grabbing plaintiff\u2019s shoulders and pulling him in for an apparent attempted forced kiss, and grabbing plaintiff\u2019s genitalia.\u201d\nThe alleged incident occurred at a private residence in October of 2016 in Malibu, California. When the plaintiff asked Spacey prior to the massage if there was a problem area he needed to be aware of, Spacey said \u201cwords to the effect that he was having some pain or discomfort in his groin area.\u201d Instead of laying face down, Spacey lay on the table face up and when John Doe started massaging the actor\u2019s leg, Spacey grabbed his hand and pulled him to the groin area.\nJohn Doe gave Spacey \u201cthe benefit of the doubt,\u201d thinking perhaps the actor wanted the pained groin area massaged. But it happened a second time. \u201cSpacey again grabbed Plaintiff\u2019s hand but this time forced Plaintiff\u2019s hand to rub his penis, scrotum, and testicles.\u201d\nIn shock, John Doe \u201cstepped backwards exclaiming words to the effect of \u2018What are you doing? This is ridiculous. I am a professional. This is what I do for a living. I have a son.\u201d\nSpacey allegedly didn\u2019t give up, getting off the table, grabbing John Doe\u2019s genitals and saying \u201cwords to the effect \u2018just let me give you a blow job.\u2019\u201d\nThe complaint continues: \u201cDuring these assaults, plaintiff repeatedly asked Spacey to allow him to leave, but Spacey blocked access to the massage table and the door with his naked body.\u201d Eventually, Spacey let him go.\nJohn Doe reported the assaults to the Los Angeles Police Department, attorneys at the Genie Harrison Law Firm, APC, which specialists in employment law, wrote in the complaint.\nAn LAPD spokesperson told the Los Angeles Blade Monday that it had no comment, but noted that the City of Malibu contracts with the LA County Sheriff\u2019s Department\u2019s Lost Hills Substation for law enforcement services. A spokesperson for the LA County Sheriff also declined comment.\nLast month, LA County District Attorney Jackie Lacey\u2019s Entertainment Sex Crimes Task Force declined to prosecute Spacey in an alleged 1992 assault in West Hollywood because of the California\u2019s statute of limitations. However, a spokesperson for the DA\u2019s office confirmed to the Los Angeles Blade that the 59-year old actor is under scrutiny in the Malibu case, which remains under review with no criminal charges yet filed.\nOutside of the United States, Spacey is being investigated in the U.K. for six sexual assault claims over 22 years, during which time he served as the artistic director at London\u2019s The Old Vic theatre between 2004 and 2015.\nThe civil filing asks for unspecified damages.\nSpacey has not yet commented on the latest allegation.\nReporting by Tribune/Deadline Media and the staff of the Los Angeles Blade.\nKevin SpaceySuperior Court for Los Angeles",

Action, adventure, political conflict, personal battles, plus plenty of grit and determination, Firebird is a feast of historical fineness from the Carnegie Medal shortlisted author of Code Name Verity and, since it\u2019s published by Barrington Stoke, it\u2019s also perfectly placed to stoke-up a love of story in reluctant and struggling teen readers.",

        "raw_content": "October 1, 2002\tBy LP Gas\nThe National Propane Gas Association is sponsoring an industry-wide study of security issues that is still not complete after months of study. And the Propane Education & Research Council, in cooperation with NPGA, has published a 15-page manual called \u201cCrisis Management: A Guide to Effective Communications\u201d that recommends that propane businesses think the unthinkable and plan their response to any potential crisis.\nThe idea is that if you think through your response to worst-case scenarios in advance, you may be able to minimize the damage to your business if they ever occur.\nThese days, businesses must be concerned with more than overturned bobtails or gas leaks at the tanks and appliances of customers. Any business can be hit by natural disasters, abductions and hostage situations, plane crashes, bomb threats and a wide range of violent acts. Experts define crisis as any turning point or decisive moment in your business operations. It can be related to products, services, policies, practices, finances, human resources or political, economic and social issues in any part of the world.\nIn the wake of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, many consultants say you need to cover more than the usual eventualities; you must actively prepare for the kind of incidents that would never have been considered just a few years ago.\nBruce T. Blythe, chief consultant at Crisis Management International in Atlanta, says the terrorist threat requires a new perspective and mindset. He suggests businesses gather a planning team to identify their company\u2019s inherent, foreseeable risks and vulnerabilities. They should identify what acts could bring the greatest damage to the organization with the least amount of time, expertise and effort.\nThose threats should result in new security strategies and a clear outline of the way that organization will respond to such incidents.\n\u201cIt is important to think purposefully about the reality that really bad things can happen,\u201d Blythe says.\nSome organizations resist preparing for critical incidents because they are in denial and don\u2019t want to admit their vulnerabilities. Others are so exclusively focused on success and their strengths that they \u201cunderestimate their weaknesses and leave themselves exposed,\u201d he says.\nAccording to Blythe, crisis response planning is helpful not only in finding ways to prevent incidents, but also is reassuring to employees who need to feel that the organization cares about them, especially in troubled times.\nToo many companies, Blythe suggests, have plans to assure the survival of computer systems and data, and have overlooked the impact of traumatic stress on people. How you will care for your employees should be part of your plan.\nAreas of concern in crisis management planning include legal issues, security personnel, media relations, liaison with law enforcement, fire fighters and regulatory officials, and the stress and mental anguish that a major crisis may impose upon employees and the community.\nEffective crisis response brings order out of chaos, and is not just compassionate and good public relations, Blythe says. It also \u201cwill reduce the risk of claims against your company, minimize damage to your reputation and improve loyalty and morale (which will improve your bottom line).\u201d\nRobert M. Berzok, retired director of communications for Union Carbide Corp., is the author of \u201cInside Organizational Communication\u201d (International Association of Business Communicators, 1999). He says the way your company communicates effectively in a crisis is not much different than communicating effectively day-to-day.\nA small group of senior managers who are most familiar with the crisis and its implications should be assembled as the crisis team. The composition of this group will vary, depending on the nature of the crisis. He advises always including an attorney, and in organizations where a communications/public relations department exists, a communications professional.\nThe team of company experts required to address a plant explosion will not be the same one assembled to discuss the implications of a hostile takeover, he notes.\n\u201cEach crisis is different, so be prepared to form different teams for different crises,\u201d Berzok advises.\nAt a very early stage, the team should determine the immediate and potential impact that the crisis is expected to have on all audiences. That list includes the public (local, national and global), customers, employees, shareholders, regulatory officials, suppliers and retirees.\n\u201cSince the organization\u2019s resources will be stretched during a crisis, determine the primary and secondary audiences that the organization wants to reach,\u201d he advises. \u201cConcentrate on these.\u201d\nIn small organizations with an informal approach to communication, the chief financial officer or general counsel may handle press relations personally. The president, executive director, or a functional vice president \u2013 usually responsible for human resources \u2013 often communicates with employees. Community issues might be addressed by a branch, plant or office manager, he says.\nBerzok also suggests selecting the media that best reach those audiences. Print media are important, but electronic media \u2013 including radio and television news, e-mail and Web communications \u2013 should also be given attention.\nPrint and broadcast media and wire services that serve both may be addressed with press releases, a press conference, or statements and briefings for selected press. Internet and Intranet sites, voice mail, e-mail and internal memos may be used to reach some constituencies, including employees. Customers, suppliers and shareholders might be addressed via mail. Meet with emergency response and regulatory officials more immediately.\nHe suggests designating a spokesperson at headquarters and anywhere else a crisis may be precipitated. The CEO is not necessarily the automatic choice, he cautions.\n\u201cThe spokesperson should be someone who can best make emotional connections with the audience as specific messages are conveyed. Knowledge of the organization is less important than the ability to project warmth and compassion.\u201d\nAll communications about a crisis should present the available facts simply, clearly, and with compassion.\n\u201cTell the truth,\u201d says the PERC crisis communications guide. \u201cCommunicate the facts honestly and clearly.\u201d\nIn an industrial tragedy, speak of concern for victims. If it is a financial crisis, express concern for shareholders, employees, and customers who might be affected. If it is a consumer product crisis, speak of concern for consumers, retailers and others.\n\u201cIt is essential to your business, and to the future of the propane industry, that the public believes its safety and well-being are your primary concern,\u201d says the PERC guide. It later adds: \u201cYou should always show concern and compassion in every situation.\u201d\nKey messages should be that the safety of propane and the well-being of consumers \u201care of utmost importance to us,\u201d that propane \u201cis a trusted and reliable energy source that is used by millions of Americans each day,\u201d and that you \u201cwill continue to provide information as it becomes available.\u201d\nIt also recommends avoiding technical jargon, keeping your cool, avoiding guesses, exaggerations or underestimates, and keeping your promises.\n\u201cThe good news is that with adequate preparation, a sense of perspective and a bit of discipline you can manage adverse publicity by participating in the communications process \u2013 instead of trying to avoid it,\u201d the PERC guide says, \u201c\nYour crisis response should continuously respond to audience feedback and new information, Berzok adds. \u201cBe prepared to adjust your communication plan and strategy as the crisis develops and changes.\u201d Add new information, but most of all \u201cdon\u2019t lose sight of the importance of making emotional connections.\u201d\nThe guide also warns those inexperienced in dealing with the media to assume that everything is \u201con the record.\u201d If you don\u2019t want to see a comment in print, don\u2019t make it.\nIn a major ongoing crisis, Berzok advises videotaping your daily press conferences in their entirety, and supplying copies of that tape to local television stations, even if networks are covering them.\n\u201cSome of your messages that may have been edited out of the network broadcasts may get used,\u201d he says. \u201cMore important, the local station is likely to be more receptive to organizational messages because it will value receiving unedited press conference tapes from your organization.\u201d\nHe also suggests that communications with employees include as much material from wire services, television and radio broadcasts and other news media as possible, with minimal editing.\n\u201cA message conveyed by a reporter or news broadcaster can be more credible than the same message from the organizational spokesperson or management.\u201d\nThe PERC crisis planning guide suggests that the first step in any crisis is to define its parameters by clearly and succinctly answering questions including:\nHow dangerous/serious is the situation?\nWhat is involved in returning the situation to normal?\nWill there be any danger during the resolution or afterwards?\nThe guide emphasizes company officials go to the scene of the incident as quickly as possible to help emergency personnel, and try to establish contact with your insurance company, attorney, and state or regional propane association. Get the names, addresses and telephone numbers of those who contact you about an incident, those are involved in it, the relevant authorities and any other eyewitnesses.\nBefore an insurance investigator arrives, photograph the scene from every angle. Don\u2019t let anyone remove anything without first photographing the object from all sides and getting complete information about who is taking it and where it will be stored.\nJerry Brown, principal of Communicating with Impact, a Denver communications consulting firm, suggests messages to the media should be crafted after envisioning the headline you would like to see.\n\u201cIf you don\u2019t simplify your message, the media will do it for you. And they\u2019ll often say it differently than you would,\u201d he says.\nAlthough a press interview may seem like a conversation, it is really a business transaction. Brown suggests writing out your key messages beforehand, and rehearsing them until they sound natural. During telephone interviews, keep a copy of them in front of you, and try to work in your main points as opportunities arise.\nHe warns against repeating an interviewer\u2019s negative assertions, even to deny them. The negative words form the reporter\u2019s question may end up in the story attributed to you.\nHe also suggests caution when a reporter tries to limit your choice or answers, asks a question designed to tempt you to speculate, or embeds a good quote in a question. Refuse to be limited by a question like, \u201cWas it incompetence or stupidity?\u201d\nThe PERC guide likewise warns against speculation. Propane industry spokespeople should not allow themselves to be lured into lurid comparisons. \u201cDo not respond to media pressure to compare the incident to other known hazards, e.g., dynamite, nuclear explosions, etc.\u201d\nIf public safety or health is threatened by the crisis incident, the media and the public will expect a company representative to speak. The Three Mile Island incident was a public relations fiasco, Brown says, because the electric company that owned that plant failed to provide timely, accurate information to regulatory officials and to the public when the power plant got into trouble. The company, in fact, \u201ctried to hide information in a misguided effort to minimize its crisis.\u201d\nThe 1982 incident in which someone added cyanide to Extra Strength Tylenol capsules in Chicago, resulting in several deaths, is cited by Brown as an example of efficient and effective handling of a corporate crisis. The company, Johnson & Johnson, immediately warned the public and kept the media fully informed. The company withdrew its product from store shelves and displayed an overriding concern for public health and full disclosure. As a result, the business and its reputation remained intact.\nPERC recommends continuously monitoring all media to verify accuracy of news and to correct misinformation immediately. NPGA and PERC can provide back up for this function, if needed.\nThe Institute for Crisis Management (ICM) in Louisville, Ky., recommends making communications with your company\u2019s managers and employees the top priority in a crisis. Designate communications staffers to handle public and media relations while a business continuity team manages the crisis and consults outside experts. Top management should concentrate on communicating with employees and their families, the board of directors, key investors and customers, and opinion leaders.\nAccording to ICM, industrial accidents, sabotage and other catastrophic incidents are rare. It is not employee errors or natural disasters that trigger most crises, the consultant says. Most are \u201csmoldering crises\u201d that management knows about before they go public. ICM estimates that 63.3 percent are caused by management and 22.3 percent by employees.\nThe top causes on ICM\u2019s list include white collar crime, labor disputes, mismanagement, defects and recalls, environmental issues, accidents, discrimination cases and class action suits.\nMost newsworthy business crises are the results of management decisions, actions or inaction, according to ICM. Management often makes no preparation to deal with the possibility that an issue might become public. The characteristic attitude before the crisis breaks is, \u201cthe problem is not serious, nobody will find out.\u201d\nICM says there may be a bottom-line impact to whatever you do in a crisis. It cites one of the worst environmental accidents in history, the Exxon Valdez oil spill, as one of the worst managed in history because of the lack of coordination between management, operations and communications.\nWhen the $1 billion cleanup was over, Exxon was forced by the courts in Alaska to pay an additional $3 billion in compensatory and punitive damages.\n\u201cOne can only speculate on how much less the punitive damages would have been if Exxon had expressed any empathy in the first days after the accident to local fishermen, local citizens and millions of TV viewers who were appalled and outraged by the damage done to Prince William Sound,\u201d the consultant notes.",

        "raw_content": "As a small business owner, it is tempting to rely solely on income (e.g. profit and loss) statements to gauge the performance of your company. Resist the temptation! Basing important business decisions on a snapshot of your overall picture could mean expensive mistakes or missed opportunities.\nThe balance sheet has been around for a long time, and for good reason. It helps fill in the gaps, or provide a fuller understanding, of the health of your business at a given point in time. Reviewing your balance sheet regularly will help you better manage your business, so use this article as a starting point (and motivation!) for learning how to read one.\nBalance sheet of a 16th century merchant, dated 12/31/1600\nFundamentals of a Balance Sheet\nThe balance sheet is a statement that reflects the assets, liabilities and equity of a business or organization. The fundamental equation governing the balance sheet is:\nAssets = Liabilities + Equity or Equity = Assets - Liabilities\nAssets are the tangible or intangible things owned by a business. They are typically listed in order of liquidity and carry a debit balance. An asset could have a credit balance, which is called a contra asset - accumulated depreciation is one example.\nLiabilities are debts or obligations owed by the business - they could also be thought of as someone\u2019s (or some entity\u2019s) claims against the company. Liabilities are generally listed in order of due dates and will carry credit balances.\nEquity is the claim to, interest in, ownership or financial value of a company. Equity, or owner\u2019s equity, is generally what is meant by the term \u201cbook value,\u201d which is not the same thing as a company\u2019s market value. Equity accounts normally carry a credit balance, while a contra equity account (e.g. an Owner\u2019s Draw account) will have a debit balance.\nInsights from your Balance Sheet\nDo you have the ability to meet current financial obligations? Another way to ask the same question is: how much working capital is currently in the company? You can determine the answer to that question by subtracting current liabilities from current assets.\nThe balance sheet can also tell you things like the length of your accounts receivable or inventory turnover cycle (i.e. the number of times they turn over over each year).\nBy dividing total liabilities by total equity, you can determine your debt to equity ratio to see how much of the business is supported by creditors versus owners.\nBy viewing the balance sheet with a comparable period, you will maximize the potential insight to be gained from these and other pieces of information.\nBalance Sheet & Income Statement Together\nReading your balance sheet together with your income statement is essential to getting a fuller picture of your business. It may be helpful to think of the income statement as a financial explanation of what happens in the period of time between two balance sheets.\nFor example, if you made a payment on a business loan during a given month, the income statement for that same month could show an interest expense, while the balance sheet would change from the beginning to end of the month in at least two different ways: the loan (liability) account would decrease, and the cash (asset) account would decrease by the total payment amount.\nIn that simple scenario, if you were trying to understand business performance by looking solely at the income statement, you would only see an interest expense and its limited impact. The balance sheet, however, would inform (or remind) you that net income is higher than it would be if cash (i.e. your loan payment) had not decreased.\nImproving Your Balance Sheet\nAt a very basic level, setting up a cloud-based accounting system like Xero or Quickbooks Online is a fundamental step. If you\u2019ve made it that far, keeping bank and credit card transactions reconciled weekly or monthly is essential. We have seen thousands (millions?) of unreconciled transactions - the further back in time they go, the more difficult and time-consuming it is to accurately account for them.\nA practical accountability measure is to set a hard date by which your balance sheet (and other financial statements) must be closed each month.\nHow detailed are the accounts that appear on your balance sheet? Depending on your particular situation, multiple accounts could be consolidated or \u201crolled up,\u201d in order to give you a cleaner and simpler look.\nHaving someone review or consult with you on your balance sheet structure and overall reporting framework will help you understand it better and turn it into a more valuable insight tool.\nBalance Sheet FAQs\n\u200dMy assets are listed, but they are worth more than the amount reflected on the balance sheet. What gives?\n\u200dWhat is accumulated depreciation?\n\u200dHow often should I review my balance sheet?\n\u200dShould my balance sheet be on the accrual or cash basis?\n\u200dWhat questions do you have?",

        "raw_content": "With more than 4.5 million active members, The Co-op is the UK\u2019s largest consumer co-op. Based in Manchester, it offers a diverse range of services, including food, electricals, legal services, funeral care and general insurance through more than 4,000 locations across the UK. Its status as a co-op means that its large membership plays an active role in its governance, contributing to its business strategy and social goals as well as sharing in the rewards of a recently launched new membership scheme.\nThe Challenge \u2013 Opening the floor\nFollowing a move to \u201done member, one vote,\u201d governance arrangements, more than two million members were subsequently eligible to vote at the Co-op\u2019s 2015 AGM. Additionally, the Co-op\u2019s complex voting system \u2013 which takes into account different societies, representatives and voting strengths\u2013 requires a sophisticated digital voting solution.\nThe Solution \u2013 Giving a voice to members\nLooking for a solution that could handle the substantial increase in participation and provide voters with an efficient and intuitive way to submit their input, The Co-op turned to Lumi. The two organisations had already been working together for many years, with Lumi delivering solutions for many of The Co-op\u2019s key conferences and meetings.\nThough Lumi had never worked with them on anything as significant as the AGM under its new governance arrangements, The Co-op had faith in the company based on its history of delivering digital voting solutions for The Co\u2014op and AGMs for numerous other enterprises.Lumi\u2019s solution comprised an on-site registration that provided a quick and fully auditable registration process. In-room voting was handled through Lumi\u2019s IML Connectors, handheld devices that allowed members to vote during the formal meeting.The IML Connectors are activated once the members insert their smartcards, which they received upon arriving at the AGM.\nThese smartcards enabled the Co-op to operate a complex \u201con the day\u201d voting system, as they link to key demographic information pertaining to the individual member. As all of this information is located on a remote and secure server, privacy and security were not a concern in the case of lost cards.In the lead up to the event, Lumi was able to quickly and efficiently design its technology and software, including development of new software solutions to accommodate The Co-op\u2019s complex voting procedures to ensure a successful meeting.\nThe Results \u2013 The next step for AGMs\nThe Co-ops 2015 AGM saw a substantial influx of \u2018on the day voting\u2019 members. The event ran smoothly, with Lumi\u2019s on-site registration services and on-site polling services providing instant access to voting data. Pleased with the results, The Co-op asked Lumi to implement a similar solution at its 2016 AGM.\n\u201cWe provided a similar solution for this year\u2019s [2016] AGM, and The Co-op has plans to develop this solution with us in the future, they love working with us,\u201d says Rob Curtis, global sales manager at Lumi.\n\u201cWe\u2019ve revolutionised the way they run voting at their AGMs. I was recently told that Caroline Sellers, Co-op\u2019s Assistant Secretary, is submitting a nomination for an award in the Institute of Chartered Secretaries and Administrators (ICSA) Governance Awards, and we\u2019re very proud to have played a role in The Co-op\u2019s transformation.\n\u201cLumi has provided The Co-op with a digital registration and voting solution that has been able to flexibly adapt to our complex voting processes.\u201d says Simon Plunkett, Democratic Project Manager for The Co-op. \u201cLumi\u2019s approach is always \u2018can do\u2019 \u2013 no matter the scale of the challenge or the timescales. Whether it\u2019s IT development or customer facing registration, Lumi staff are positive, customer focused and ready to go that extra mile to make our AGMs successful.\u201d\nThe Co-op has now decided to enter a long-term partnership with Lumi. The future looks bright for the two organisations, as Lumi focuses on developing new methods to get more Co-op members to participate in future AGMs, either through the use of on-site keypads or remotely via AGM mobile software.\n\u201cThe governance team at The Co-op want to absolutely revolutionise their AGMs,\u201d says Curtis. \u201cThey really want to take it to the next level by incorporating new technologies and increasing member participation which is core to their co-op purpose and identity, that\u2019s why they\u2019ve extended the partnership.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "AOL phisher gets seven year sentence\nCourt overturns Virginia spam law, conviction\n'Warez' software pirate sentenced to probation\nPhishing scourge prompts calls for change\nA West Haven, Connecticut, man has been sentenced to seven years in prison for masterminding a phishing scheme that targeted AOL users over a four-year period.\nMichael Dolan, 24, was sentenced Wednesday in Connecticut federal court. The seven-year sentence was the maximum he could have received, said Assistant U.S. District Attorney Edward Chang, via e-mail. Dolan was also sentenced to three years\u2019 supervised release, and a $200 special assessment, he added.\nLast year Dolan pleaded guilty to fraud and aggravated identity theft charges.\nFederal prosecutors had argued that he masterminded a scam in which he and five other men harvested thousands of AOL e-mail addresses and then infected victims\u2019 PCs with malicious software that would prevent them from logging on to AOL without entering their credit card numbers, bank account numbers and other personal information. The scam ran between 2002 and 2006, prosecutors said\nAll of the defendants have pleaded guilty. Another defendant, Keith Riedel, is set to be sentenced Thursday.\nVictims would receive fake e-mail greeting cards that would silently infect their computers with the log-on software, according to a grand jury indictment. They were also spammed with phony e-mail messages that claimed to have come from AOL\u2019s billing department.\n\u201cDue to a central server meltdown, your credit card information was lost,\u201d one such e-mail read. \u201cIn order to enjoy your AOL experience and keep your account active, you must enter your credit card information within 24 hours.\u201d\nSome of the fake greeting cards claimed to come from Web sites such as Hallmark.com or BlueMountain.com. Proceeds from the crime were used to purchase gaming consoles, laptop computers and gift cards, the indictment states.\nIn court filings, Pickerstein had asked for a lighter sentence, saying that his client suffered from \u201csevere mental illness\u201d and had made poor decisions following his father\u2019s suicide. He argued that there were probably less than 50 victims of the scam, and that victim losses were closer to US$43,000 \u2014 far less than argued by the government.\nHis lawyer, Harold Pickerstein, declined to comment further on the matter on Wednesday.\nAssistant U.S. Attorney Edward Chang painted a far different picture of the man, saying in a sentencing memorandum that Dolan has attempted to bribe a codefendant, threatened to kill someone he thought was a government informant, and suborned perjury from his girlfriend. \u201cMichael Dolan is a born leader \u2014 a leader of criminals,\u201d he wrote.\nDolan had previously admitted that the scam had netted more than $400,000 from 250 or more victims, Chang argued in the memorandum.\nBefore the AOL phishing charges, Dolan had previously been sentenced to two years of probation after pleading guilty to accessing a protected computer without authorization. He later was given nine months\u2019 jail time for violating his probation terms.",

        "raw_content": "Metaalgieterij Alliage | Jeroen Dik\nWebsite: www.alliage.nl\nMetaalgieterij Alliage\nMetaalgieterij Alliage has its roots in the rich history of iron foundries in Deventer. It was founded in 1917 as a spin-off of Iron Foundry Nering B\u00f6gel. Back then, there was a need for casting other metals besides Iron. Alliage was founded for that purpose. At the moment, that is still Alliage\u2019s core business. Alliage has seven employees.\nAlliage casts nonferrous metals such as bronze, messing and aluminium, with sand forms in small series and special products for a group of customers. This varies from artists to off-shore and machine builders. For these customers, Alliage makes valves, connectors, lids, crane parts, ship\u2019s equipment parts, installation productions, machine parts and decorative pieces.\nWhat makes Alliage stand out is its unique knowledge of metal casting combined with quick delivery times for ad hoc work and repeating orders. Director Jeroen Dik explains that colleague-foundries often apply delivery times of around ten weeks. At Alliage, this is merely three weeks. Furthermore, customers praise the short communication lines and the direct contact: \u201cWe respond quickly in the interest of our customers and are always honest. That is appreciated much. We therefore have a very stable clientele, which we treat with care and we are very proud of,\u201d Jeroen says.\nIn the past, Alliage has fulfilled a number of special jobs. It would take too much time to sum it all up. For example, Alliage has cast all eight signs, of each 120 kilos, in bronze for the old main office of ABN AMRO in the Vijzelstraat in Amsterdam. There are also still many old street signs on the facades of houses in Deventer that were cast by Alliage. Working with artists is also great. Every project is different, and it is always nice to see artworks in public spaces that you cast yourself.\nContinuity is important for the future of Alliage. They do not aim for quick and hasty growth. It is about quick delivery and quality in a long-term customer relationship. Jeroen: \u201cWe feel comfortable with that. By working with customers with similar profiles and mentalities, you get the best out of each other.\u201d\nGermany, Belgium and France",

They look at what things are supposed to look like, how you\u2019re supposed to act, how you\u2019re supposed to prepare and how you\u2019re supposed to play on a nightly basis.\n\u201cThat doesn\u2019t necessarily mean you\u2019re going to have your A-game 82 times a year. But people are going to look at you when you don\u2019t have your A game, and how you\u2019re going to respond to that. For me, this is obviously a huge honor. I got to learn a lot from Andrew Ladd. To see what it looks like every day to be the leader of the team, especially in a market like Winnipeg, is a pretty special honor, an honor I know Andrew took with a lot of pride and I look forward to carrying the torch for him.\u201d\nOver the past two seasons while wearing the C, Wheeler has been a tremendous team leader in Winnipeg and on Tuesday, he was noticed by the National Hockey League.\nWheeler, along with Deryk Engelland of the Vegas Golden Knights and Wayne Simmonds of the Philadelphia Flyers, were named the three finalists for the 2017-18 Mark Messier Leadership Award.\nThe award is presented each year \u201c\u2026 to the NHL player who exemplifies great leadership qualities to his team on and off the ice during the regular season and who plays a leading role in his community growing the game of hockey.\u201d as selected by six-time Stanley Cup champion and Hall of Famer Mark Messier.\nOn the ice, Wheeler led Winnipeg to a 52-20-10 record and 114 points - the most wins and points in franchise history and a 12-win and 27-point improvement from 2016-17. In his second season as captain, he shared the NHL lead in assists (68) and topped the league in primary assists (48) and power play helpers (34). The Plymouth, Minnesota native also led the club and finished ninth in the NHL in points (91). He's in his 10th season in the NHL and his eighth with the Jets franchise and he passed Ilya Kovalchuk for the franchise lead in assists earlier this season.\nWheeler's accolades in 2017-18 included playing in his first NHL All-Star Game in Tampa Bay. He was selected as the NHL's First Star of the week for Nov. 27-Dec. 3/17 after a 10-point (2G, 8A) week.\nOff the ice, Wheeler is an ambassador for the True North Youth Foundation, the Winnipeg Jets Hockey Academy, Camp Manitou and the mental wellness program, Project 11.\nAtlanta acquired Wheeler with Mark Stuart from Boston in exchange for Rich Peverley and Boris Valabik. Wheeler was originally drafted by Phoenix in the first round (fifth overall) in the 2004 NHL Draft.\nWheeler is the second Jet to be named a finalist for an NHL award this season. He joins Connor Hellebuyck, who is a finalist for the Vezina Trophy, given to the NHL's top goaltender.\nThe 2017-18 winner of the Mark Messier Leadership Award will be announced on Wednesday, June 20 during the 2018 NHL Awards Show from the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, NV.\nPHOTO JAMES CAREY LAUDER",

        "raw_content": "A French Ch\u00e2teau With An English-Style Garden\nNot far from Paris, the 18th-century estate has been meticulously restored\nBy Catherine Bolgar\nCh\u00e2teau d\u2019Aunoy has formal French parterres in front.\nLocation: Seine-et-Marne, France Price: \u20ac18 million (about $19.94 million)\nIn a neighborhood of ch\u00e2teaux, the 18th-century Ch\u00e2teau d\u2019Aunoy stands out as one of the first in France to adopt an English-style garden.\nThe owner at the time, Jean-Baptiste Chabert, had rebuilt the ch\u00e2teau after the earlier medieval building was ravaged by a fire in 1750, according to Jean-Louis Tapiau, the current owner. The new building adopted all of the modern techniques of the era, such as using stone\u2014rather than wood\u2014supports for the roof.\nMr. Chabert further embellished his mansion with modern grounds, bringing in a gardener from England to design sinuous paths, ponds and viewpoints over 47 acres of the property. An additional 128 acres was left wooded and wild. Nearly 2,000 acres of forest can be rented for hunting.\n\u201cThe ch\u00e2teau is in the middle of a protected forest,\u201d says Mr. Tapiau. \u201cYou won\u2019t have construction coming in. It\u2019s very rare to have so much space so near Paris.\u201d\nAfter the 1999 windstorms that damaged many trees around Paris, Mr. Tapiau worked with an architect to restore the park, planting 3,000 trees \u201cso the gardens can go on for 80 or 100 more years, with the same character as in 1750,\u201d he says.\nThe ch\u00e2teau itself has more than 8,600 square feet on three floors, with two large salons, a reading room, two dining rooms and a kitchen on the ground floor. Upstairs, there are 10 bedrooms, all with en-suite bathrooms.\nThe ch\u00e2teau is historically designated and Mr. Tapiau has invested millions of dollars in its restoration. \u201cIt\u2019s authentic,\u201d he says. \u201cIt hasn\u2019t been massacred by multiple owners.\u201d\nThe outer buildings offer an additional 8,600 square feet of living space. There\u2019s an orangerie, a guesthouse, a hunting lodge and a caretaker\u2019s house, as well as greenhouses and garages. Some of the outer buildings can be renovated to provide an additional 10 bedrooms.\nThe department of Seine et Marne on the outskirts of Paris counts about 60 ch\u00e2teaux, including Ch\u00e2teau de Vaux-le-Vicomte, just down the road from Ch\u00e2teau d\u2019Aunoy. Ch\u00e2teau de Fontainebleau, which has a neighboring golf course, is half an hour\u2019s drive away. The nearest village is Champeaux, which is less than a mile away.\nParis is about 50 minutes away by car, and the airports of Roissy Charles de Gaulle and Orly are an hour and 50 minutes, respectively.\nCh\u00e2teau D\u2019Aunoy has served as the backdrop for a number of music videos, films and photo shoots. German-Australian photographer Helmut Newton shot here. Celine Dion\u2019s music video for \u201cGoodbye\u2019s (The Saddest Word),\u201d and Laurent Voulzy\u2019s video for \u201cJeanne\u201d were also shot on the property.

But first, lets go back to basics. What is a Will? A Will is a legal document that enables a specified person or persons (your Executors) to distribute your assets according to your wishes when you die.\nYour assets include your house, land, car, bank accounts, insurance/superannuation policies and any other goods that you may own at the time of your death. Your Will sets out which asset goes to which \u201cbeneficiary\u201d. Beneficiaries can be family members, friends, charities or other organisations.\nIf you have a young family, your Will can also state who is to be the legal guardian of your children in the event that they are left without a parent. For the time being, keep this in mind, if you don\u2019t have a Will then you don\u2019t have a say in how your assets will be distributed or who will administer your estate for you. That will be done by the Government adhering to a rigid formula.",

        "raw_content": "Is ridesharing the answer to fixing drunk driving in Wisconsin?\nOn behalf of Melowski & Associates, LLC posted in Drunk Driving Charges on Friday, April 10, 2015.\nRidesharing is a relatively new phenomenon that is currently happening in large cities throughout the United States as well as right here in Wisconsin. To rideshare, a person simply has to use a smartphone and a downloaded app to connect to a ridesharing network. Drivers on the networks use their own vehicles to pick up and drop off passengers for a fee, ultimately operating like traditional taxi services.\nAt present, individual cities in the state are allowed to decide if they will permit ridesharing companies to operate within their borders. However, the Wisconsin State Legislature is currently looking at a proposed law that would permit ridesharing companies to operate throughout the entire state. One of the legislative authors of the bill suggests that such a law may give people in less populated areas more transportation choices since bus and taxi services may not be prevalent in their areas.\nAnother use of the proposed bill that lawmakers have expressed is the potential for ridesharing to help combat the state's drunk driving problem. Interest groups and even ridesharing companies have undertaken studies to see what impact ridesharing has on drunk driving charges in the places that the companies operate; generally, the studies found that where ridesharing companies operated, incidents of arrest for drunk driving and DUI went down.\nRidesharing may give Wisconsin residents an opportunity to avoid getting charged with a crime if they decide to imbibe and then find themselves without a way to get home. It will now be up to state legislators to determine if the pitfalls of ridesharing operations outweigh the potential benefits of letting such services extend throughout the state. If passed, drivers who need a ride due to alcohol consumption may only need to turn to their smartphones to find a way home.\nSource: WJFW, \"State lawmakers propose ridesharing legislation,\" March 30, 2015\nTags: charged with a crime",

With his early motor racing career financed by a series of bank loans, Niki rapidly progressed up the motorsport ladder - eventually joining Scuderia Ferrari in 1974 and scoring his first win that same year.\nA first Formula One title followed a year later - but it was the 1976 season that was to define Lauda's career, after he suffered near-fatal injuries in an accident at the N\u00fcrburgring. Through sheer force of will, Niki would return to the cockpit just six weeks later at Monza.\nScarred but undeterred, Niki would ultimately concede the 1976 title to his great rival and later friend James Hunt, before adding a second World Championship to his list of honours the following season.\nAfter adding a third crown in 1984, Niki retired from F1 at the end of the 1985 season, taking on a role with German commercial TV station RTL as the resident expert in addition to acting as an adviser to Ferrari in the mid-90s.\nFor the 2001 and 2002 seasons, Niki became first Race Director and later Team Principal at the British Jaguar Racing Formula 1 team. He would return to the boardroom in 2012 as Non-Executive Chairman of Mercedes-Benz Grand Prix Ltd.\nAway from the racetrack, Niki has put his entrepreneurial talents to work for his second great passion - aviation. Lauda Air was born in 1979 and by the 1990s had obtained a worldwide scheduled flight concession, leading to close collaboration with Lufthansa and ultimately the takeover of Lauda Air by the German operator in 2002.

        "raw_content": "The booth design\nIn general, the direct communication is the main interest at a fair. Therefore, when designing a stand, it is important to plan areas for conversations in a pleasant atmosphere. Furthermore, the exhibits that you choose and their staging with light, graphic arts, colours, different materials must draw the visitor\u2019s attention. The so-called eye-catcher, that are exhibits normally located at the external areas of a booth, should be perceived already from further points of the exhibition hall. One main element and one of the first contact points should be the reception desk. The global booth design should attract attention and be inviting at the same time. Around the exhibits, there should be enough space for interested visitors. The different areas of a booth should be distinguished by using different design elements e.g. flooring, separating elements, plants, lighting etc.\nIn these areas which should be located at the borders of a stand, the visitors have the possibility to get in contact with the exhibits or presented topics by using interactive devices like tablets etc. Within the last years, the interactive presentation of topics and products has become more and more common and appreciated. Complex topics and contents can be explained in an interesting way. The visitors are incited to deal actively with a certain topic. Thereby, you can catch the visitors interest.\nApart from the reception desk, open areas with high tables, lounges or a catering bar, there should be also an area, where a company can conduct intensive conversations in a more private and protected atmosphere. In these zones, the experts should have the possibility to answer all customer questions calmly and in-depth. The customers should be able to have a closer look at the products and to ask their questions away from the other visitors. Visitors invited to these areas should have the impression to be important to the company and that the employee only concentrates on him or her. At the same time, these areas should always remain an integrated part of the booth and stay in touch with the stand life outside.\nThe walls of a booth are significant for the global atmosphere. That\u2019s why their design is important. For an exhibitor, there are a lot of design options: printed fabrics, plastic-coated system-walls, adhesive printed films etc. If the stand must be mobile, backlit fabric walls are suitable. The design of the walls should fit with the corporate design of a company and with the exhibits. They should separate the booth into different areas or embrace it.\nOften, booths don\u2019t have any ceilings because of practical reasons or technical requirements. By using ceiling banners or danglers you can create a closure above and use these eye-catching items at the same time for advertising objectives and to draw attention, above all if your stand is not located next to the entrance.\nBy using different floorings, the different areas of a booth can be distinguished visually. Diverse materials and colors can pilot the visitors to the important exhibits. One important aspect is the quality of the chosen flooring. During a fair, the flooring is subject to hard conditions. It should be easy to clean and, if necessary, to replace parts of it without removing the whole flooring.\nBy choosing the right lighting, the exhibits are accentuated and pushed into the middle of interest. The basic lighting of a booth should create a pleasant atmosphere. Special spotlights emphasize important elements.\nMusic, sound effects, perfumes\nMusic and sound effects can also be used to catch attention. If you decide to use loud-speakers at your booth to play music or similar you should proceed sensitively. On the one hand, you must not disturb your own stand atmosphere, on the other hand you should also respect the work of your stand neighbours. Don\u2019t forget to ask for the GEMA permit if necessary. Special perfumes have been used so far especially in the food branch. In any case, for a company, there are many possibilities to make the booth a global sensual experience for the visitor.\nOne important element of a booth is the catering area which is often the starting point of many conversations. Areas for the wardrobe and the stocking should be considered as well and be integrated in the global conception without disturbing the main elements.",

        "raw_content": "How are Aussies using their smartphones?\nWhen it comes to using smartphones to access the internet, Aussies are getting more information on the go than ever before!\nThe Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) published new data last week (July 5) about the different activities Australians do on their smartphones - revealing plenty of opportunities for IT developers.\nAccording to the survey, the highest growth area for smartphone activity was the banking and finance sectors. An increasing amount of people are checking their account balances on the go using their smartphone, with 94 per cent growth in this sector between January and December 2012.\nOther high growth areas - and potential opportunities for IT developers - include general browsing, maps and getting directions, consumer research on specific products and services, and streamed video.\nThe number of Australians who are now 'full mobile substitution' users - that is, they use their handset as their only phone and internet-enabled device - is increasing dramatically. There has been a 70 per cent increase in this type of handset use in the last year - although these users make up only three per cent of the total population.\nThese individuals were two-thirds more likely to access online banking sites and social media platforms than those who still maintained a traditional internet connection.\nMobile and online habits of Australian consumers can impact directly on employment trends, and the demand for highly skilled mobile technicians in all areas is high. If you are keen to explore your options when it comes to IT recruitment and moving roles, it can pay to stay on top of these types of statistics.",

A year earlier the Tax Office had suffered a setback. It lost a case in the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands. [\u2026]\nInvestigators for the Australian Tax Office and their lawyers were told by a judge last year that if they travelled to the Cayman Islands they could be locked up.\nA year earlier the Tax Office had suffered a setback. It lost a case in the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands. This was the first lawsuit, and apparently the only one, to test whether a Tax Information Exchange Agreement (TIEA) actually worked. It didn\u2019t.\nAfter years of gabfests, conferences, issues papers and symposiums, when the Australian government finally sought to uphold its rights under an international tax treaty and obtain a bit of information, thwack, it was promptly thwarted by a judge in the Caribbean.\n\u201cThe Commissioner\u2019s staff and lawyers would be exposed to risk of incarceration should any of them decide to visit the Cayman Islands,\u201d wrote Justice Nye Perram of the Federal Court in a judgment after the Caymans defeat. The Caymans judge ordered the relevant documents, now in the hands of the Australian court, destroyed.\nAs G20 leaders prepare for their talkfest in Brisbane in the coming week they would do well to ponder this. Even if they were to talk day and night for a year, sally forth with a shipping container brimming with white papers, sign a slew of resolutions and an array of treaties on top, it would hardly put a scratch on the Leviathan that is global profit shifting.\nThe key is to stop the money from getting to the tax haven in the first place, properly enforce Australia\u2019s existing tax laws and enact some new ones \u2013 not try to get it back from a low-lying island in the Caribbean. The G20 does not make laws, or enforce them; sovereign nations do.\nThe idea of a multilateral solution plays straight into the hands of the perpetrators, the multinationals, their lawyers and the big four. You can almost hear PwC, Ernst & Young, Deloitte and KPMG chuckling about the G20 from their city eyries. While solemnly pontificating to governments on tax policy, in the very next breath they go about showcasing the latest in tax avoidance fashions to the world\u2019s premier tax cheats.\nThe Caymans catch\nThe Caymans Islands is the fifth largest banking centre in the world; its hundreds of banks and insurance companies are the stewards of trillions in the wealth of other nations. In a fiscal ring-a-ring-a-rosy, they even help prop up OECD bond markets with their surfeit of capital. The overflow has to go somewhere; why not buy government bonds in the countries where the profits originated?\nAussie companies are there in their droves, the likes of QBE, News and Macquarie. Even government instrumentality the Future Fund is there with no less than 35 entities, latterly, inexplicably, trading in distressed debt. That\u2019s another story.\nThis is but one of dozens of tax havens around the world, all with their unique cultures and legal regimes. Forget the utopian extravaganza of a multilateral agreement, this case shows how tricky it is merely to exert your rights in a bilateral agreement \u2013 that between Australia and the Caymans.\nUnder the Tax Information Exchange Agreement (TIEA) it had struck with the Caymans, the Australian Tax Office requested information from the Cayman Islands Tax Information Authority (CITIA).\nCITIA agreed to deliver the information but the taxpayer in question, Sydney man Vanda Gould, challenged the decision in the island\u2019s courts.\nThe Grand Court agreed with Gould, finding that the information should not have been given to the ATO, and further that the CITIA had breached not only the Bill of Rights but the nation\u2019s confidentiality laws to boot.\nIt was an outrage, fumed Gould\u2019s barrister Ramon Alberga, QC, lashing out at the Australians during proceedings in sunny Georgetown:\n\u201cIn acting as it did the Australian court has disregarded the well-known principle of international judicial comity [this bloke is a big fan of Lord Denning], which is that courtesy and recognition of the judgment of one foreign court is usually extended to such judgment by another foreign court. This is especially to be observed when the two courts belong to states which both have her majesty the Queen as their head.\u201d\nThis demonstrates two immutable principals: one, that lawyers take themselves far too seriously, and two, they also tend to love themselves too much, wherever you are in the world.\nBy finding, however, that Cayman Islands Tax Information Authority acted unlawfully by providing the Australian Tax Office with documents about two companies registered there \u2013 despite the bilateral deal for exchange of information \u2013 it does not bode well for any such arrangement.\nTax lawyer Tony Anamourlis is doing his PhD on the efficacy of Tax Information Exchange Agreements told Fairfax Media it was questionable now whether TIEAs were \u201ca workable tool to tackle tax evasion, fraud or criminality\u201d.\nThis was the first time the agreements had been tested in court, Anamourlis said, and were the Australian government to splash more money chasing information about this one taxpayer, battling tight bank secrecy regimes in the process, it would first have to appeal to the full bench in the Caymans, thence the Privy Council in London.\nPreviousVocation debacle a lesson for rent-seekers and their investors\nNextStock spruikers pump and dump in wild west",

        "raw_content": "Acquisition Czar: Army Closer to Fielding New Approach to Air Defense\nSoldiers of the 5th Air Defense Artillery Regiment demonstrate reloading a Patriot missile battery at Camp Buerhing, Kuwait in April 2017. (US Army Photo/Sean McCollum)\nAir and missile defense may not be the top priority under the Army's new modernization strategy, but in the past 15 months, the service has crafted a sophisticated, new approach to protecting ground forces from enemy air attack, acquisition czar Bruce Jette said Thursday.\nIn the past, the Army looked for single systems, such as the Patriot surface-to-air missile system, to handle air defense, said Jette, the assistant secretary of the Army for Acquisitions, Logistics and Technology (ASAALT).\n\"The way you [did] air defense is, 'OK, I've got this altitude, that altitude, that altitude and I need a system that works at this altitude, that altitude and that altitude,' \" he told a group of reporters at a Defense Writers Group breakfast in Washington, D.C.\nThe systems were \"standalone concepts, and the integration of them in a battlespace was purely done at the operator level,\" Jette said.\n\"Here is the Patriot battery. It stands alone, and all you've got to do is put fuel in the thing and a couple of soldiers and the thing works,\" he said.\nSince then, the threat on the battlefield has changed, Jette said.\n\"The threat has become much more complicated. It's not just tactical ballistic missiles or jets or helicopters. Now, I've got UAVs, I've got swarms, I've got cruise missiles, I've got rockets, artillery and mortars,\" he said.\nIn October 2017, the Army launched its new modernization strategy, designed around special cross-functional teams, or CFTs, made up of members of the acquisitions, requirements and operational communities, to manage the service's six new modernization priorities. Those include long-range precision fires, next-generation combat vehicles, future vertical lift, a mobile network, air and missile defense and soldier lethality.\n\"So using the cross-functional teams, the technical side has come back and said, 'Listen, normally, if you want to deal inbounds that are not ... missiles -- things like rockets, artillery and mortars (RAM) -- the radars that comes with the Patriot battery are not the same radars that you need to see RAM,' \" Jette said. \"We have radars that see RAM, so why don't we integrate them into a network.\"\nNorthrop Grumman's Integrated Air and Missile Defense Battle Command System, or IBCS -- a system that \"was in trouble\" in the past because of \"muddy requirements\" -- will form the new air defense network, he said.\n\"We fixed the requirements. ... We've got an acquisition process in place and we are doing really well,\" Jette said. \"We will be delivering next December systems that are deployable.\n\"So I don't deliver you a Patriot battery anymore, I deliver you missile systems, I deliver you radars, I deliver you a command-and-control architecture,\" he said. \"They all integrate, and any of the command-and-control components can fire any of the missiles against any of the threats.\"\nIn the long term, the Army will work to integrate artificial intelligence into air defense, a capability that could help units engage incoming enemy threats faster than ever before, Jette said.\n\"We have a much more holistic view of where we are heading now in the air defense area,\" he added.\nDoDBuzz Army Gear and Equipment",

        "raw_content": "Salvador Perez Named 2018 Louisville Silver Slugger Award Winner\nKANSAS CITY, MO (November 8, 2018) - Louisville Slugger \u00ae and MLB Network announced tonight that the Kansas City Royals' Salvador Perez has been named the American League's 2018 Silver Slugger Award winner at catcher. This is Perez's second career Silver Slugger Award (also: 2016), and he joins George Brett (3) and Willie Wilson (2) as the only Royals to earn the honor multiple times since it was established in 1980. Perez is among 10 Royals (14 times) to earn the honor overall, and the only catcher.\nThis marks the fourth consecutive season in which a Royal has earned a Silver Slugger Award, as other recent winners include Kendrys Morales (2015) and Eric Hosmer (2017). Kansas City is one of four teams with at least one Silver Slugger Award winner in each of the last four seasons (2015), joining: Houston, Colorado and Miami.\nPerez, 28, matched his career highs in home runs (27) and RBI (80) in 2018, despite missing the Royals' first 20 games of the season due to injury. He led all Major League catchers in home runs and RBI, and led American League catchers with 50 extra-base hits.\nHe became the ninth Royal to hit at least 25 home runs in consecutive seasons and the first Major League catcher to accomplish the feat since Iv\u00e1n Rodr\u00edguez (1999-2001) and Mike Piazza (1995-2002).\nPerez also became the fifth Royal to hit at least 20 home runs in four consecutive seasons, joining: John Mayberry (1972-75), Steve Balboni (1984-87), Bo Jackson (1987-90) and Mike Sweeney (1999-2002). Perez is the ninth catcher all-time - six of which are in the Hall of Fame - with four seasons of at least 20 home runs (consecutive or not) before turning 29, joining: Johnny Bench (7), Brian McCann (6), Yogi Berra (5), Gary Carter (5), Mike Piazza (5), Lance Parrish (4), Iv\u00e1n Rodr\u00edguez (4) and Joe Torre (4).\nPerez hit two grand slams this season, including one in Baltimore on May 10, his 28th birthday. In doing so, he became the second Royal to hit a slam on his birthday, joining Mike Sweeney (2004), and the first in the American League to do it since Hideki Matsui in 2008. On September 14 vs. Minnesota, Perez matched a career high with five RBI, including a walk-off grand slam, the sixth in the Royals' 50-year history.\nPerez, who earned his fifth Rawlings Gold Glove Award on Sunday, is the sixth catcher to earn a Gold Glove and a Silver Slugger Award in the same season multiple times (also: 2016), joining: Iv\u00e1n Rodr\u00edguez (7), Joe Mauer (3), Lance Parrish (2), Benito Santiago (2) and Gary Carter (2).\nThe Louisville Silver Slugger Award winners are decided by a vote of Major League Baseball managers and coaches who select the players they determine to be the best offensive producers at each position in the American and National Leagues. Selections are based on a combination of offensive statistics, including batting average, on-base percentage and slugging percentage, as well as the managers' and coaches' general impressions of a player's overall offensive value. Managers and coaches are not allowed to vote for players on their own teams. Tabulation of the balloting is verified by the accounting firm of Mountjoy Chilton Medley LLP.\nBelow is a list of the 10 Royals to win a Louisville Silver Slugger Award (instituted in 1980):\nGeorge Brett - 1980, 1985 and 1988 (1980 and 1985 at third base; 1988 at first base)\nWillie Wilson - 1980 and 1982 (outfield)\nHal McRae - 1982 (designated hitter)\nFrank White - 1986 (second base)\nGary Gaetti - 1995 (third base)\nDean Palmer - 1998 (third base)\nBilly Butler - 2012 (designated hitter)\nKendrys Morales - 2015 (designated hitter)\nSalvador Perez - 2016 and 2018 (catcher)\nEric Hosmer - 2017 (first base)",

Frazier will receive a $3.5MM bonus, less than the $3.787MM assigned slot value price for the No. 5 pick (slot info courtesy of Baseball America). Frazier is advised by the ACES agency.\nFrazier was widely heralded as one of the top members of this year's draft class, rated as the No. 4 overall prospect by both MLB.com and Baseball America. ESPN's Keith Law (Insider subscription required), who rated Frazier at No. 7, described him as possessing \"the best bat speed in the draft, [and] some of the best I've ever seen on an amateur player.\" Frazier even drew some buzz as a surprise choice to be taken by the Astros as the first overall pick, though Houston instead went with right-hander Mark Appel.\nFrazier, 18, is a right-handed hitting outfielder out of Loganville High School in Georgia. He has above-average arm strength and running ability, according to BA's scouting report, and he is a threat at the plate due to his bat speed and \"plus-plus raw power.\" While Frazier played center field in high school, he is projected as a corner outfielder in his pro career.\nOnce Frazier's deal is finalized, he will be the 14th player taken in the first round to have reached an agreement with his club.\n2013 Amateur Draft Cleveland Indians Clint Frazier Transactions\nMarlins Sign Colby Suggs\nMiguel Olivo Seeks Release From Marlins",

Responding to the disasters of World War I and to an emerging modern media and machine culture, Dada artists led a creative revolution that profoundly shaped the course of subsequent art. Dada was a defiantly international movement, the first to self-consciously position itself as an expansive network crossing countries and continents. Born in neutral Zurich and New York, two cities that served as independent points of origin for the movement, Dada rapidly spread to Berlin, Cologne, Hannover, Paris, and beyond.

Juvenile Court jurisdiction over these proceedings is described in Welfare and Institutions Code Section 602.

DJJ also provides medical care and maintains a safe and secure environment conducive to learning.\nYouth are assigned living units based on their age, gender, risk of institutional violence and their specialized treatment needs.

        "raw_content": "Airmen of Note featured at 2018 JEN Conference\nThe Airmen of Note pose for a picture on the steps of Constitution Hall during this year's annual Holiday Concerts (U.S. Air Force photo by CMSgt Kevin Burns/released)\nThe Airmen of Note are looking back on a very busy 2017, complete with two major tours, a successful Jazz Heritage Series with 3 guest artists, a new studio album release, a busy summer concert series, and also the annual flash mob and holiday concert series. Even though the band is eager for some holiday rest and time to recharge, they have also been getting ready for the jazz world\u2019s biggest education event right at the start of 2018 - the JEN Conference!\nThe Jazz Education Network hosts an annual event where jazz artists, educators, students and fans can come together to perform, take part in panel discussions, master classes, workshops and, as their website says, \u201cHang!\u201d Going into its tenth year, JEN supports jazz and music education through three main avenues: advancing education, developing audiences and promoting performance. Having been to several conferences before my tenure in the Airmen of Note, I can attest that the walls are bursting at each year\u2019s event. I\u2019ve witnessed, in the same halls, Wynton Marsalis giving a lecture on American values in the arts, an elementary school big band performance, and a discussion on saxophone mouthpiece design. The planners of these annual galas let out all the stops, programming 4 days of events for everyone. Therein lies some of jazz\u2019s universal appeal - there is so much variety within one American art form that almost anyone can find something they find interesting!\nThe United States military jazz ensembles have a long tradition of appearing at the JEN conference, and before JEN, its predecessor, IAJE (International Association of Jazz Educators). This year, the \u201cNote\u201d has the honor of not only performing, but also taking part in several pedagogical events. They will certainly be busy, giving clinics geared towards music students as well as educators eager to glean tools from a big band that lives and breathes together almost daily. In addition to these workshop-style clinics, the Note will be performing new music, both as part of the Young Composers Showcase and a public reading session.\nThe main concert performance will be extra special for the band, as they get to reconnect with Stefon Harris, a world-renowned vibraphonist who was a guest performer with the Note in the fall of 2015. This concert also required some preparation throughout the holiday season, as Mr. Harris\u2019 repertoire includes some of his challenging compositions as well as music from the pens of Wayne Shorter, Stevie Wonder and Horace Silver.\nWhile performing for an audience comprised almost entirely of jazz musicians can be daunting, there is a sense of community, knowing all are there to celebrate this great American art form. The Note\u2019s new pianist, Technical Sergeant Chris Ziemba says, \u201cTo perform for one\u2019s peers in the field, that\u2019s a special treat for us. I\u2019m very excited to be able to perform at the only national convention for jazz music in front of some of the biggest names and then be able to hear those same people give a performance or clinic. It is sure to be inspiring.\u201d Discerning ears offer both a challenge for perfection and a welcome feeling of respect for the music and its tradition. Trombonist, Technical Sergeant Kevin Cerovich notes, \u201cIt\u2019s always an honor to represent the Air Force anytime the Airmen of Note is performing throughout the world. The JEN conference is even more exciting, however, as it\u2019s a chance to represent the excellence of all Airmen to an audience who is wholeheartedly devoted to the style of music we play.\u201d\nAs 2017 comes to a close, the Note can look back on a rewarding year of performances, community outreach events, clinics and recordings. With several new members, the future looks bright; and, the JEN conference will be a wonderful way to start another chapter in the band\u2019s long legacy.",

Goodbyes are never easy, but when you arrive at a good one, it's immensely satisfying.\nI'm so grateful to everyone who's traveled with me, and just as grateful to the people coming to the story now. Whatever category you fall into, I hope you'll find this final volume a fitting end.\nThree months after a brutal battle at Peris, Adam Yuga, Lochlan D\u2019Bideshi, and their rebel fleet are embroiled in a new conflict. But things aren\u2019t going well. Even with Lock\u2019s homeship, Ashwina, at the head of the fleet, the Protectorate forces are adapting to their tactics. Before long, two devastating blows send the ragtag rebels on the run. But the greatest threat may come from within.\nSince the battle at Peris, Protectorate loyalist Isaac Sinder\u2019s determination to eliminate the rebel fleet has only intensified\u2014along with his ambition. The Protectorate is decaying, and it\u2019s clear to Isaac that only he can save it, by any means necessary.\nAs the situation worsens for the rebels, the strain begins to tell on everyone. But more than exhaustion grows within Adam. Something alien has started to change him. Lochlan fights to hold on, but even he may not be able to follow Adam down the dark road ahead.\nAs Isaac\u2019s obsession turns to insanity, it becomes evident that more sinister plans than his are at work. Bound together by threads of fate and chance, Adam and Lochlan turn their eyes toward a future that may tear them apart\u2014if they\u2019re lucky enough to survive it at all.\nSunny Moraine\u2019s short fiction has appeared in Clarkesworld, Strange Horizons, Nightmare, Lightspeed, Long Hidden: Speculative Fiction from the Margins of History, and multiple Year\u2019s Best collections, among other places. They are also responsible for the novels Line and Orbit (cowritten with Lisa Soem), Labyrinthian, and the Casting the Bones trilogy, as well as A Brief History of the Future: collected essays. In addition to authoring, Sunny is a doctoral candidate in sociology and a sometimes college instructor; that last may or may not have been a good move on the part of their department. They unfortunately live just outside Washington DC in a creepy house with two cats and a very long-suffering husband.\nTo celebrate the release of Sword and Star, Sunny is giving away a signed copy of the book and a handmade necklace.

        "raw_content": "Visions Of The Past: A Strange Street Experience\nStrange story here today from Bob Lawrence. Bob witnessed what he believes to be a scene from the past. Take a look and see what you think of his experience\u2026\nThis happened to me about twenty years ago. I was in college at the time and had been going through a fitness kick. I would run the same route every single day. From my apartment I would run through the park and to the coffee shop. I\u2019d have a coffee and then run back. This is a routine I kept up for four years before getting married.\nAnyway, I was out running, enjoying the evening. Warm evenings were my favorite time for running. I ran through the park and I was waiting at the crossing to cross over to the coffee shop. I was watching the traffic when I saw a man step out in front of a car. Literally this man, in a grey coat, stepped out from the sidewalk in front of this taxi. The taxi, unaware of him, just drove straight through him. He kept walking. I watched as he walked across the street and disappeared.\nNow that\u2019s all that happened. What I saw there I believe to be a vision of the past. I think I actually saw a moment from the past of a man stepping to cross over the road. Maybe it was something to do with the atmosphere, or the energy surrounding that time of day. All I know is this man was unaware of this taxi, the taxi couldn\u2019t see him. The taxi drove straight through the man, and the man kept walking.\nWe live in a strange world, and we know so little of what is going on around us. Has anyone else experienced anything like this?\nBob Lawrence,\nHome \u00bb Your True Encounters \u00bb Your Stories \u00bb Visions Of The Past: A Strange Street Experience",

        "raw_content": "Nashville Home Sales Jumped 27% in July\nHome sales in the Nashville area have increased by an astonishing 27.4% over the last month compared to one year ago, in the strongest sign yet that local real estate markets are on the road to recovery.\nNashville Home Sales Jumped 27% in July Close\nPosted by Gary Ashton RE/MAX Advantage on Monday, August 27th, 2012 at 9:18am.\nThe report, which comes from the Greater Nashville Association of Realtors, said that a total of 2,754 homes were sold in Nashville in July, compared to 2,021 homes in July 2011. This figure represents the highest number of homes sold in one month in Nashville since June 2008.\nKendra Cooke, president of the Greater Nashville Association of Realtors, said that the increase in July home sales is a reflection of the sustained growth being experienced by Greater Nashville's real estate market in 2012:\n\u201cWe\u2019re fortunate enough to be seen continued improvement with respect to home sales. This can be put down to the stable and diverse employment landscape in the city, which is very strong compared to many other parts of the country. Indeed, the city's economy looks to be in good shape, and that is certainly helping the local real estate market,\u201d explained Cooke.\nAccording to the Greater Nashville Association of Realtors, the median sales price for a Nashville single-family home last month was $181,250, compared to $179,900 in July 2011. However, condo prices slipped slightly with median prices down to $156,220, from $158,000 last year. The average single-family home sat on the market for 81 days. Pending sales were also up, with 2,648 deals agreed at the end of the month, compared to 1,997 in July 2011.\nCurrent inventory for the greater Nashville area stands at 18,868. In July 2011, this figure stood at 21,993.\nCooke said that additional inventory in Nashville would actually be welcome in the market.\n\u201cCurrently, we have a seven month supply, and this is only five months if we're talking about single-family residences. Those properties which are correctly priced and market ready tend to be very popular and sell very quickly. Even so, many buyers continue to be very selective about their purchases, focusing on those homes that are ready to live in, rather than those that need significant maintenance or repair,\u201d said Cooke.",

        "raw_content": "Germany vs Elsevier: universities win temporary journal access after refusing to pay fees\nScientists in Germany can still read journals even though institutions there have not renewed their subscriptions.\nThe Central Library of the Humboldt University in Berlin, which is one of around 200 institutions to have let its subscription to Elsevier journals expire.Credit: Gonzales Photo/Alamy\nThe Dutch publishing giant Elsevier has granted uninterrupted access to its paywalled journals for researchers at around 200 German universities and research institutes that had refused to renew their individual subscriptions at the end of 2017.\nThe institutions had formed a consortium to negotiate a nationwide licence with the publisher. They sought a collective deal that would give most scientists in Germany full online access to about 2,500 journals at about half the price that individual libraries have paid in the past. But talks broke down and, by the end of 2017, no deal had been agreed. Elsevier now says that it will allow the country\u2019s scientists to access its paywalled journals without a contract until a national agreement is reached or 200 individual contracts are hammered out.\nThe two sides had \u201cconstructive conversations well into December\u201d, says Harald Boersma, a spokesman for Elsevier. \u201cWe will continue our conversations in the first quarter of 2018 to find an access solution for German researchers in 2018 and a longer-term national agreement,\u201d he says. \u201cWhere access agreements ended, we have informed these institutions that we would maintain access to our content while we continue to work with the German Rectors\u2019 Conference [which leads negotiations for the consortium] on a solution and specifically a 1-year extension to existing contracts, covering 2018.\u201d\nG\u00fcnter Ziegler, a mathematician at the Free University of Berlin and a member of the consortium's negotiating team, says that German researchers have the upper hand in the negotiations. \u201cMost papers are now freely available somewhere on the Internet, or else you might choose to work with preprint versions,\u201d he says. \u201cClearly our negotiating position is strong. It is not clear that we want or need a paid extension of the old contracts.\u201d\nAcademic-publishing experts around the world are keenly observing the situation in Germany. The nationwide deal sought by scientists includes a open-access option, under which all corresponding authors affiliated with German institutions would be allowed to make their papers free to read and share by anyone in the world.

Inclusion criteria were as follows: use of BMAC for treatment of chondral defects and osteoarthritis of the knee, English language, and human studies. We excluded cadaveric studies, animal studies, basic science articles, editorial articles, surveys, and studies that did not include the knee. After applying inclusion and exclusion criteria, studies were evaluated for efficacy and safety of BMAC for treatment of articular cartilage knee pathologies.\nEleven studies were considered. Of these, 5 were prospective studies, 1 was a retrospective study, 2 were case series, and 3 were case reports. Three comparative studies (2 with level 2 evidence, 1 with level 3 evidence) were found in our search; none of them were randomized. Three studies investigated the clinical efficacy of BMAC in the treatment of osteoarthritis, and 8 studies evaluated the efficacy of BMAC on focal cartilage injuries. All 3 studies regarding osteoarthritis and all 8 studies regarding focal chondral defects reported good to excellent overall outcomes with the use of BMAC.\nAlthough a growing interest for biological alternatives of treating knee pathology has been observed in the past few years, there still remains a paucity of high-quality studies.

        "raw_content": "Main Blog > The Legend and Legacy of American Pie\nThe Legend and Legacy of American Pie\nMiss Cellania \u2022 Thursday, July 19, 2012 at 5:05 AM\nNeatorama presents a guest post from actor, comedian, and voiceover artist Eddie Deezen. Visit Eddie at his website.\n\"American Pie,\" written and recorded by Don McLean, is the longest song to ever reach #1 on the charts. At 8 minutes and 38 seconds, it topped the charts on January 15, 1972 and remained there for four weeks.\nDon McLean wasn't able to play sports or engage in any vigorous physical activities as a child due to his severe asthma. He worked hard at therapeutic exercises and helped improve his physical condition, but it also helped him in another way. Don's asthma had also made it hard for him to reach and hold certain notes, and the asthma exercises improved his ability and range as a singer. At age 15, Don decided to pursue a career as a singer, composer, and musician.\nHis first album, Tapestry (yes, just like Carole King's) was released in 1970 after being rejected by 34 different record labels. The album had some success and garnered good reviews. But this moderate hit was in no way indicative of the legendary phenomenon that he came out with the next year.\nDon's album American Pie was released in 1971 and contained a song that was to become a part of music history. \"I can't necessarily interpret 'American Pie' any better than you can,\" Don was to tell Life magazine. With one exception: Don was to say \"Buddy Holly was the first and last person I ever idolized. Most of my friends liked Elvis Presley, more of them liked Elvis Presley than Holly, but I liked Holly because he spoke to me. He was a symbol of something deeper than the music.\"\nWhile a young boy delivering newspapers, Don clearly remembers reading about Holly's fatal plane crash, along with Richie Valens and the Big Bopper. In his stack of papers for February 3, 1959, Holly's profound effect on McLean was indelible and, 12 years later, was to be the genesis of \"American Pie.\" Yes, the song was definitely about the tragic death of Buddy Holly, a great hero of Don's, but aside from this basic agreed-upon point, he has never discussed the rest of the enigmatic lyrics. \"American Pie's\" lyrics have been interpreted, dissected, discussed, debated, and pored over, much like lyrics to Beatles' songs.\nCommon theories about \"American Pie\" lyrics include:\nWhile the king was looking down, the jester stole his thorny crown. The \"king\" is Elvis Presley and the \"jester\" is Bob Dylan.\nAnd moss grows fat on a rolling stone. About a slightly overweight Mick Jagger in a too-small stage outfit.\nLenin read a book on Marx. About John Lennon and Karl -or maybe Groucho- Marx.\nI met a girl who sang the blues... About Janis Joplin.\nHelter skelter in a summer swelter... About Charles Manson.\nGuessing at the lyrics of \"American Pie\" has been an indulgence of musical scholars and dilettantes for forty years now, and will be going on as long as a radio station, TV show, website, or movie plays the unforgettable tune. But besides it's admitted Buddy Holly homage lyrics, Don McLean has added one other pertinent point:\n\"I'm very proud of the song. It is biographical in nature. I don't think anyone has ever picked up on that. The song was about Buddy Holly. But it moves on to describe America as I was seeing it and how I was fantasizing it might become, so it's part reality and part fantasy. I've never analyzed the lyrics to the song. They're beyond analysis. They're poetry.\"\nIn another particularly revealing interview, he was to add, \"American Pie\" was about the \"turn from the innocence of the fifties to darker, more volatile things in sixties music and politics.\" Don was to later joke that when he was older, he would open a pay-to-listen phone line in which he would tell what the song means.\nWhen \"American Pie\" was first released, it was so long it took up both sides of the record. It was actually banned by several American radio stations because of its eight-and-a-half minute length. Many stations limited songs to a length of 3:30. For this reason, the \"American Pie\" title of \"longest record to ever reach number one on the charts\" is sometimes disputed. The Beatles' \"Hey Jude,\" clocking in a seven minutes and 11 seconds, is listed in some sources as the title holder, because it was a single side of a single record.\nDon McLean has some other hits and around twenty mostly well-received albums after the incredibly heady success of American Pie. Don sang \"American Pie\" on New Year's Eve in 1999 in front of the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C.\nDon McLean remains a hard-working and active singer, composer, and musician. He has fronted everything from Bluegrass to rock bands to the Israeli Philharmonic. In 2007, his official memoirs were published. McLean and his most famous and beloved song remain a part of American pop culture. The recording industry of America recently voted \"American Pie\" number five on its list of all-time greatest songs:\n1) \"Over the Rainbow\" by Judy Garland\n2) \"White Christmas\" by Bing Crosby\n3) \"This Land is Your Land\" by Woody Guthrie\n4) \"Respect\" by Aretha Franklin\n5) \"American Pie\" by Don McLean\nDon McLean has claimed that he never knew how commercial \"American Pie\" was, just that he had \"written a masterpiece.\"\nTags: Song, American Pie, Eddie Deezen, Deezen, Don McLean, Ballad\nBLACKLISTED: Neil D \u2022 19Jul12 8:22am \u2022 0\nDon McLeans best remembered song is \"American Pie\", but MY all time favorite Mclean song is \"And I Love Her So\". Besides Don, Elvis Presley recorded it for an album of his own - but the best version was sung and recorded by none other than (don't laugh) Perry Como!\nI never realized his idol was Buddy Holly. Holly appealed to other artists just like McLean had done a dozen years later. Thanks for the insight Eddie!\nBLACKLISTED: Roy Hinkley \u2022 19Jul12 9:50am \u2022 0\nGreat article about a great song - thanks Eddie, and keep 'em coming!\nBLACKLISTED: TheFishmonger \u2022 19Jul12 9:59am \u2022 0\nI have somewhere in my files a pamphlet claiming that American Pie is Satan's version of the Song of Solomon. I shit you not.\nBLACKLISTED: Tariq \u2022 19Jul12 1:56pm \u2022 0\nMy favorite response from McLean: \"... It means I'll never have to work again.\"\nBLACKLISTED: Larry Dubois \u2022 20Jul12 8:34am \u2022 0\nGreat piece Eddie. Don McLean has always been one of my favorite artists. As much as I love American Pie, his song Vincent (about Van Gogh) to me is even better. Thanks again Eddie!!\n\"The Legend and Legacy of American Pie\"",

Photo Credit: Barry Sloan\nBy Bart Jones bart.jones@newsday.com Updated October 13, 2018 6:00 AM\nWilfredo Vasquez was 4 years old when his family fled El Salvador\u2019s brutal military and \u201cdeath squads\u201d because his parents \u2014 religious teachers in the Roman Catholic Church \u2014 were a likely target.\nOn Sunday, the Wyandanch resident will celebrate the canonization of the priest who most famously stood up to the repression and called on the soldiers and Salvadoran government to stop: Archbishop Oscar Romero, who at a ceremony in Rome will be made the first saint from El Salvador.\nFor Vasquez and thousands of other Salvadorans on Long Island, the ceremony, led by Pope Francis, will be the culminating moment for a man many have considered a saint from the day he was assassinated in 1980.\n\u201cIt fills us with much pride, with much happiness,\u201d Vasquez, 40, said in Spanish. \u201cWe have waited for this for many years.\u201d\nRomero, known as the \u201cvoice of the voiceless,\u201d was killed for defending the poor and denouncing the violence leading to El Salvador\u2019s bloody 1980-1992 civil war, which left 75,000 people dead. The victims included three American nuns and one laywoman, six Jesuit priests, and thousands of teachers, community organizers and church volunteers, most killed by death squads and the U.S.-backed Salvadoran military, according to a United Nations Truth Commission.\nIt was a country where posters declared \u201cBe a Patriot, Kill a Priest,\u201d and where decapitated heads of victims were placed on fence posts to terrorize the population.\nRomero, whose weekly homilies became a main source of information about the repression in a Central American nation where the government and wealthy elites controlled the media, was gunned down by a sniper from a right-wing death squad on March 24, 1980. He was celebrating Mass in the small chapel at a cancer hospital where he lived.\nRomero \u201cwas greatly opposed by the government and by the U.S. embassy and also the rest of the bishops weren\u2019t too happy\u201d with some of the things he did, such as opening church properties to thousands of people afraid for their lives, said the Rev. William Brisotti, a priest on Long Island who spent months working with displaced people in El Salvador during the war.\n\u201cHe was very firm that the gospel is about justice for the poor,\u201d Brisotti said. \u201cHe never backed off of that.\u201d\nRomero\u2019s path to sainthood was delayed for decades under Popes John Paul II and Benedict XVI, who expressed concern over his connection to \u201cLiberation Theology\u201d and its preferential option for the poor, and his denunciations of the government-sponsored killings, kidnappings and torture.\nFrancis, the first pope from Latin America and a Jesuit, put Romero on the track for sainthood less than two years into his papacy when he formally declared in February 2015 that the archbishop was assassinated as a martyr for the faith.\nOn Long Island, home to an estimated 100,000 Salvadorans, one of the largest concentrations in the United States, this weekend will be filled with events celebrating Romero\u2019s elevation to sainthood.\nSpecial Masses in his honor are being held in at least eight parishes, with Bishop John Barres presiding at ceremonies in Brentwood and Hempstead. Barres, who considers Romero one of his heroes, has released a special pastoral letter about the archbishop, noting that even many atheists and agnostics admire Romero\u2019s human rights legacy.\nRomero \u201cshowed the world how a successor to the apostles should lead,\u201d Barres said. \u201cHe died as a witness to the truths of the Catholic faith, but most especially he died proclaiming Catholicism\u2019s focus on the inherent dignity of every human being.\u201d\nSome parishes will be showing the 1989 film \u201cRomero\u201d starring Raul Julia. Next weekend St. Luke Roman Catholic Church in Brentwood will unveil a statue of Romero.\nSome 120 people from the Diocese of Rockville Centre, including priests, nuns, deacons, seminarians and lay people, have traveled to Rome as pilgrims for the canonization, diocesan spokesman Sean Dolan said.\n\u201cI think it is an historical moment, a moment which will bring many blessings to the universal church,\u201d said Deacon Francisco Cales, who as head of the diocese\u2019s Hispanic Apostolate is leading the pilgrimage to Rome.\nVasquez said his family fled El Salvador in 1982 for Honduras, and did not return until 1993 when the war had ended. He came to the United States in 2000.\nOn Sunday, he will participate in a Mass at Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal Roman Catholic Church in Wyandanch, during which a musical group will sing some of Romero\u2019s favorite songs from El Salvador\u2019s countryside.\n\u201cMy parents instilled in me a love for Romero,\u201d Vasquez said. \u201cHe was on the side of the poor.\u201d",

Many churches and other public buildings were put into service during the Civil War, but few in Loudoun County saw as much action as Mt. Zion.\nThe church was used as a military rendezvous site, prison, barracks, battleground, and hospital. Union troops used the church as a field hospital after the cavalry engagements of Aldie, Middleburg and Upperville in June of 1863, and graffiti on the church\u2019s walls are remnants of the soldiers\u2019 days spent in recuperation. July of 1864 saw military action close to the church, when Confederate Colonel John S. Mosby and his men met the Union forces from Massachusetts and New York under Major William H. Forbes. It was an overwhelming victory for Mosby and his men.\nThe cemetery adjacent to the church contains over 240 marked graves and additional unmarked graves within its old stone wall, and at least 64 African American unmarked graves outside the wall.

There are companies out there who perform a variety of tasks, from design and lawn care to irrigation and lighting (and don\u2019t forget handyman). As a result, they are all over the place. They may say they have quality landscape lighting, but are nowhere to be found when a product fails. Additionally, many of these companies will receive poor reviews from a customer, but just move on to another job. Their reputation simply doesn\u2019t matter. Their multitasking approach actually works against them; landscape lighting is just one aspect of their business, and it may not even be the top priority.\nBy contrast, Northwest Outdoor Lighting specializes solely in low voltage landscape lighting. If we receive a poor review from a customer it affects our business! We stand behind our products and service. As a result, when we show you our quality landscape lighting and explain in detail the features of each product, you\u2019ll understand that you are purchasing quality landscape lighting from a knowledgeable, trustworthy company! After many years of designing and installing outdoor lighting systems, we\u2019ve learned a lot along the way. Don\u2019t be the victim of that inexperienced, multitasking company or handyman! It\u2019s too painful to pay twice for something that should be done right the first time!\nDon\u2019t be afraid to ask questions, especially about the engineering of fixtures and installation. It\u2019s not rocket science, but if your wiring is not installed properly it will cause you more aggravation, time and money. Understanding the many facets that go into calculating the load on a transformer, cable and fixture is all thought out in the complexity of installing an outdoor lighting system. Many times our customers have commented that after seeing us work in their yard, they had no idea it was such hard, detailed work. A job well done should look like it was easily installed \u2013 even though it is backbreaking work!\nThe quality of your landscape lighting is often directly connected to the quality of the products your designer uses. Cheap, shoddy products that have low lumens and are poorly manufactured will require constant upkeep and attention, and will not give you the lighting effect you\u2019re hoping for. As a result, it\u2019s important to make sure that your chosen designer works with legitimate manufacturers and products that you can research on your own for your peace of mind. Don\u2019t be afraid to research the products your designer is using. Are they produced in China or America? How is the manufacturer\u2019s quality control? What is the manufacturer\u2019s return policy/warranty policy? A company that is proud of their products is happy to forward warranty information!\nFor example, Northwest Outdoor Lighting is a proud distributor of UltraMax uplights. From the optics used to maximize output and minimize color separation, to the basic housing of the aluminum, which is crafted from 6061 aircraft grade aluminum or solid brass, you will be purchasing great water-proof fixtures which have a pressure sealed screw valve which prevents moisture from fogging the lens and protects the LED board. UltraMax is a product line that epitomizes quality!\nAs a customer seeking the best landscape lighting design possible, quality is what you are ultimately paying for. We want to make sure that all our clients are educated, informed, and confident that we are providing the highest degree of quality they can expect. Call us; we\u2019d be happy to share our wealth of information and experience with you. See our commitment to quality for yourself!",

The combination of classical sources, contemporaneous politics, symbolism, sexuality and didactic instruction all had varying degrees of nuance, perfectly suited for the burgeoning field of literary criticism. It is precisely the inaccessibility of Paradise Lost, and the large amount of erudition required to properly understand its influences, which contributed to its popularity. If, as Thomas Vogler observed, ?the perennial goal of historical thought can be seen to be a mode of self-definition in the form of a narrative in which a ?modernity' defines itself over against a past perceived as essentially different,? then Paradise Lost is no exception. The focus of Miltonic scholarship is, to a large extent, a reaction against the previous generation's reverence. One constant, however, is that each generation appreciates the elitism of Milton's greatest work.\n[...] In order to adopt (and adapt) Paradise Lost for a modern Augustan audience, Milton was stripped of his democratic and revolutionary leanings, and his dry academic style and classical learning was emphasized, and sum the eighteenth-century trend is the separation of Milton the poet from Milton the prose writer, the bard from the rebel? (Lynch 407). His pamphlets and political tracts were almost forgotten and scarcely read; Milton the man was a poor representative of Enlightenment values. Milton the poet, however, was an amalgam of Hebrew, Greek, and Roman sources. [...]\n[...] As the eighteenth century progresses, understanding of scholarship and education evolves in a way that begins to affect the nature of Paradise Lost criticism. Whereas the typical Augustan scholar was a combination of professor, reader, critic, gentleman, and writer, by the late eighteenth century, numerous economic, social, and political changes had accrued which separated these facets into their own entities. These fissures are dramatized as early as the late 1690s, when William Temple and Richard Bentley engaged in the infamous Ancients vs. [...]\n[...] This concept of didactic poetry, widely accepted in Pope's day, was beginning to fall out of favor by the end of the eighteenth century: genre [didactic poetry] that, in Addison's eyes, had produced most complete, elaborate and finished Piece of all Antiquity'--Virgil's Georgics- -and that Thomas Tickell could rank ?second to Epic alone' in the hierarchy of poetic forms, became for the Romantics a byword for mediocrity, a violation of the true nature of poetry, or a simple contradiction in terms.?[17] The rise in sentiment against Pope's brand of didactic poetry can be traced back to Joseph Warton's 1756 Essay on the Genius and Writings of Pope, where Pope was demoted from the rank of for producing work the didactic, moral, and satyric kind; and, consequently, not of the most poetic species of poetry.?[18] It is no coincidence that Keats writes an ode to Chapman's Homer rather than the Pope's translation, which was more or less the standard translation until well into the 19th century.

        "raw_content": "At Oliver, we know that lighting is a big part of any home, and some lights provide a type of atmosphere than others. Whether you\u2019re trying to replace your current lighting or you\u2019re in need of a fresh start, we can help you choose the right lighting, such as:\nRecessed lighting refers to lighting fixtures that are enclosed within a hollow opening in the ceiling. This type of lighting is ideal for a home with low-hanging ceilings. This way, you won\u2019t take up room with a ceiling light. Recessed lighting is also a good choice for a modern, minimalist style room or if you simply don\u2019t like the aesthetic look of lighting fixtures.\nThis type of lighting is also called \u201coffice lighting\u201d and is usually used to illuminate a specific area (in most cases, an area of work). Task lighting is often used as contrast lighting. For example: A bright lamp in a room that\u2019s otherwise pretty dark. It can be used nearly anywhere in your home.\nMany homeowners like to highlight both the inside of their home and the outside of their home using lighting. If you\u2019re interested in outdoor lighting fixtures that illuminate your home\u2019s architecture, we can help you decide the best angles and shadows to create using the lighting.\nAccent lighting is used to illuminate a certain area and gives you a way to add drama to your home. Many people use accent lighting to draw attention to artwork, plants, bookcases, furniture, and more. This type of lighting can be created using wall lights, recessed lighting, dome lights, spot lighting, and more.\nLike recessed lighting, track lighting appeals to homeowners who are looking for a modern, minimalist type of style.

Of 41 suspects indicted by the judge, Baltasar Garz\u00f3n, 24 are expected to face trial. Three are accused of taking part in the Sept. 11 attacks. The rest are charged with forming part of a terrorist network. The three Sept. 11 suspects include Imad Eddin Barakat Yarkas, the suspected leader of Al Qaeda in Spain, who has been in Spanish custody since November 2001. The others are Ghasoub al Abrash Ghalyoun and Driss Chebli, according to El Pa\u00eds, Spain\u2019s largest daily. The trials are expected to begin early next year. Judge Garz\u00f3n announced the conclusion of his investigation in a six-page legal document that largely summarized the charges and findings he presented in a much longer and more detailed report last September.

        "raw_content": "Spreading the Secret\nThe North Carolina Literary Review incorporates photos and art with stories and poems and takes a scholarly publication one step further.\nMargaret Bauer stood before a group of North Carolina writers in The Chelsea restaurant in New Bern last summer and posed a question.\nHow many of you, she asked, are subscribers to the North Carolina Literary Review (NCLR)?\nBauer surveyed the room as about a third of the 80 or so attendees raised their hands.\n\u201cShame on the rest of you,\u201d she said. \u201cIf you don\u2019t subscribe, who do you think will?\u201d\nThe question hinted at a conundrum facing NCLR, one of the South\u2019s most unusual and respected annual literary publications: Why, outside of small circles of literati, is it largely unknown?\nNCLR presents the work of prominent North Carolina writers and poets in a bold design. But Bauer, NCLR\u2019s dogged editor, remains frustrated that she is unable to sell even the 1,000 copies printed annually.\n\u201cIt is a shame,\u201d she says. \u201cWe do what we can, but that\u2019s the biggest disappointment because when people see it they say, \u2018Wow!\u2019 \u201d\nNot a stuffy journal\nNCLR was founded at East Carolina University in 1992 as a companion publication to the North Carolina Historical Review. Every year, Bauer and her team of volunteer editors accept submissions from writers with ties to North Carolina.\nThe works include fiction, creative nonfiction, poetry, interviews, and scholarly reviews of literature, all related to a theme. In recent years, themes like drama; humor; environmental writing; and, in 2012, literature into film have been explored with a clear North Carolina slant.\nBut this isn\u2019t your grandfather\u2019s academic journal. Photos and illustrations complement the pieces, giving NCLR the modern feel of a magazine rather than a traditional, stuffy scholarly review.\n\u201cThat mix of beautiful art and text just comes to life in this journal, and you really can\u2019t find another example, I think, in the literary world today that celebrates in this way,\u201d says Dana Ezzell Gay, a Meredith College graphic-design professor and a freelance art director for the review.\nWhen NCLR is published each summer, the works of established North Carolina writers and poets, such as Jill McCorkle, Cathy Smith Bowers, Charles Frazier, and Clyde Edgerton, are presented alongside those of the state\u2019s aspiring stars. Bauer includes each edition\u2019s finalists and winning entries in the Doris Betts Fiction Prize and James Applewhite Poetry Prize competitions.\nBland Simpson, a well-known author, musician, and UNC professor, praises NCLR\u2019s unique look and compares it to a mass reading of the state\u2019s top writers.\n\u201cIt\u2019s got an extraordinary graphic component to it,\u201d Simpson says. \u201cIt\u2019s a very witty piece of work. \u2026 There\u2019s only one thing like it. It\u2019s had a great, great deal of attention and work put into it.\u201d\nAlthough Bauer frequently organizes readings at independent bookstores across the state to promote NCLR, she still struggles to popularize the brand after 21 years of publication with no marketing budget. She has never sold out despite the $15 cover price and the $25 cost of a two-year subscription.\nKathryn Stripling Byer, a former North Carolina poet laureate and a frequent contributor to NCLR, agrees that the review\u2019s appeal could be broader.\n\u201cI think any number of people, aside from the literati, would be delighted to subscribe to it and have it come each year and just sit down and enjoy looking through it and reading it,\u201d Byer says. \u201cIt\u2019s a well-kept secret, but we don\u2019t want it so well kept anymore. We want it out there.\u201d\nUndeterred, Bauer carries on. That day at The Chelsea, the show-of-hands strategy worked. She sold two dozen subscriptions, the most she\u2019d ever sold in one place.\nBuy it, read it :\nAsheville: Malaprop\u2019s Bookstore, Black Mountain College Museum & Arts Center, Thomas Wolfe Memorial\nBlack Mountain: Black Mountain Books\nBoone: Appalachian State University\u2019s Scholar\u2019s Bookshop\nBrevard: Highland Books\nBryson City: Elizabeth Ellison Watercolors\nBuxton: Buxton Village Books\nChapel Hill: Bull\u2019s Head Bookshop at UNC, Flyleaf Books\nCharlotte: Park Road Books\nDurham: Regulator Bookshop\nForest City: Fireside Books and Gifts\nFountain: R.A.

In fact, one may argue that the cold, dead air of winter may be more fitting for dark and dreary celebrations.\nHaunted Hills Estate in Uniontown will be presenting \"Nevermore: A Gothic Murder Mystery Dinner Show\", a 4 - Hour, entirely immersive theatrical production, for 1 night in March. This promises to put a new spin on the typical Murder Mystery Dinner, as audience members will have to assist real-life representations of classic Gothic Authors in solving a mystery.\n\"For over 15 years, Haunted Hills Estate has produced a string of yearly Murder Mystery dinners that have gained quite a dedicated following,\" says Aidan Finnegan, the event's Marketing Director. \"We decided to bring yet another unique experience to the area by resurrecting some of history's most well-known Gothic authors.\"\nThe event features a delicious pasta dinner, preceded by hors d'oeuvres and culminating in dessert. The experience begins as soon as guests check-in at the event's registration desk, from which they are escorted to their table by a member of \u201cThe Raven Society,\" a mysterious group who seem to be \"pulling the strings\" at this event. Interactive and up-close performances are combined with chilling sound effects and terrifying costumes for \u201ca ghoulishly good time.\"\nThe story takes place in a cemetery, to which the Raven Society have invited a myriad of history's most well-known horror authors, including Edgar Allen Poe (\u201cThe Raven\u201d, \u201cThe Tell-Tale Heart\u201d, \u201cThe Cask of Amontillado\"), H.P. Lovecraft (\u201cThe Call of Cthulhu\u201d, \u201cAt the Mountains of Madness\"), and Mary Shelley (\u201cFrankenstein\").\n\"Fans of classic horror stories will find this story entertaining, as the themes found in the authors' stories may act as potential motives and personality traits. Solving this mystery will take creative thinking,\" says Finnegan.\n\"Nevermore: A Gothic Murder Mystery Dinner Show\" will be hosted at the West Leisenring VFD Hall on March 9, 2018, starting at 5:30 PM, Seat reservations are $45 per person, and tickets must be purchased in advance via their website.\nTags: Haunted Hills Estate, Uniontown, Nevermore, Nevermore Haunted Hills Estate, Haunted Hills Estate murder mystery dinner show, murder mystery dinner show",

        "raw_content": "We are now waiting for the school buildings to be thoroughly dried out before beginning repairs and renovation. Meanwhile the site is being prepared and salvaged furniture, equipment and teaching materials have been moved to storage and divided into the items we will take to the temporary campus and the items which will continue to be stored until we move back to the main site. We spent last week preparing for our move to the temporary site. Classrooms and offices have been assigned and we have been planning logistics, such as how student drop off and collection will work, where food will be served etc. After the break, teachers will be in the temporary campus getting the classrooms ready for re-opening on November 6.\nKeeping Students Learning\nOur paramount concern is getting students back to learning. To minimize disruption, all parents should have received a package of resources and ideas that can be used at home with your child (please let us know if you didn\u2019t receive it). We know this is not the same as learning at school, and we totally appreciate that many parents are busy and/or working, so please just do whatever you can. The important thing is to keep those little brains active while we get everything ready for November 6!\nSafety of the Buildings\nSome parents have expressed concerns about the safety of the buildings at school after the flood. Last week a structural engineer spent a whole day at the site checking the structural safety of the buildings. He confirmed that the load-bearing rammed earth walls showed no signs of structural stress. Even the partly damaged structures were still strong enough to carry loads up to 6 times of what they are actually carrying now. That means that all our structures are super safe and dimensioned with a safety factor of 6 and higher.\nEarth buildings are not meant to stand in flood water of course! To guard against the unlikely event of standing water soaking the walls in the future, our builders CLC we will be using alternative materials to strengthen the wall finishes so that they are water resistant.\nWe have been overwhelmed with the generosity of parents and friends of the school. We have had so many donations, small and large, that it is impossible to personally thank everyone. However, we want all our families and friends to know how grateful we are for your support, in no matter what form it comes. Just sticking with us gives us so much confidence that we can pull through this challenge together.\nMany parents asked for specific ways in which they could help, so we have created a list of items that we urgently need for the temporary campus, and a list of what we need for when we go back to our main campus (please click on the links below).\nPriority list, urgently needed by October 30, 2017\nLong term list, needed by January 4, 2017\nThere are many fundraising activities happening around town, in parents\u2019 homes, at other schools and within Panyaden family businesses, many of which we continue to highlight on Facebook. If you wish to get involved, please contact Friends of Panyaden, either through their Facebook page or by calling 062- 026 2673 EN (Sylvia) and 089- 433 4881 TH (Jip).\nWe will continue to update you on funding plans, building updates and prevention measures as we get more clarity of information. A huge thank you to all!",

        "raw_content": "What 7kgs of books looks like\nMay 18, 2012 January 6, 2014 / paul\t1 Comment\nI\u2019ve blogged on and off about the fitness regime this year, and so far it\u2019s basically going to target. After watching the scales for the last 6 months, I have become accustomed to my new weight, but I wanted a comparison to compare it to my weight at the of the year. So what better thing to use that some of my heavy reference manuals, to see what the difference in books would be.\n15.5lbs or 7.1 kgs of books\nIt\u2019s hard for me to think that I carried that weight unnecessarily around with me every day. These 6 books represent what I\u2019ve lost in the last 25 weeks by being a little bit healthier and a lot more active. Visualising weight accurately is harder than you think. Like how many laptops do you weight ? How many books does your chair weigh ? How many chairs would weight the same as a table. It\u2019s interesting to do these conversions as it helps us understand these numbers in more tangible everyday terms.\nThe next challenge ? Is to do the Munich Stadtlauf 10km in under an hour, it\u2019s on June 24th.\nSlaves.ie \u2013 my thoughts\nAugust 6, 2011 / paul\nOn Thursday, 4/8/2011,\u00c2 www.slaves.ie went live, thanks to the nice design work of James from Forbairt.ie. The idea to bring some attention to the increasing numbers of requests for unpaid interns in Ireland. Here are my thoughts on this project.\nMyself, Michele & James, over an online discussion thought it would be a good idea to have a website to bring attention to the increasing trend of companies requesting people to do, what seems on paper at least, a job you would expect someone of experience/skill to perform. These jobs are often pitched as an opportunity to get experience or a start in an industry, but the employer is not willing to pay these people for their time.\nSome employers even say that they\u2019ve hired many people after these types of intern postions. But this carrot dangling really doesn\u2019t justify someone receiving at least \u00e2\u201a\u00ac8.65 per hour, the current minimum wage in Ireland. If you perform a task, that potentially someone else is paying for, i.e. a client of your employer , and you just get \u2018experience\u2019, there does seem to be some level of exploitation here.\nCollins Dictionary, via thefreedictionary.com, defines the word slave as\nslave [sle\u00c9\u00aav] n\n1. (Law) a person legally owned by another and having no freedom of action or right to property\n2. (Business / Industrial Relations & HR Terms) a person who is forced to work for another against his will\n3. a person under the domination of another person or some habit or influence a slave to television\n4. (Business / Industrial Relations & HR Terms) a person who works in harsh conditions for low pay\n5. (Engineering / Mechanical Engineering)\na. a device that is controlled by or that duplicates the action of another similar device (the master device)\nb. (as modifier) slave cylinder\nBecause of #4 I feel that the word slave is an appropriate word to use. The harsh condition being the fact that you don\u2019t receive any wages for the work performed.\nThere has been some debate over the last 3 days about this topic, it even trended on twitter at one stage. It\u2019s great to see that in some way slaves.ie has aided this debate. Some people were offended by word slave, to that I am sorry, that was not the intention. Others seem to have used it to pull some punches at companies, this was also not the intention of the website.\nIrish Unemployment\nWith the rate of Irish unemployment hitting 14%, there are lots of capable people out there looking for work. It\u2019s sad to see that people feel like they have to take these positions, as that\u2019s what it\u2019s now come down to.\nRecently the Irish government launched an initiative to get people on the dole, into jobs. JobBridge allows employers to advertise these internship positions. The employers only have to pay their workers \u00e2\u201a\u00ac50 per week, but they will continue to receive their unemployment benefit. People seem to be happy to apply for these positions, and I think it can be a win-win situation for both the intern and the employer. Where things could get dodgy is when these intern positions should in fact be full time positions. JobBridge define an internship as :\nThe aim of the National Internship Scheme is to assist in breaking the cycle where jobseekers are unable to get a job without experience, either as new entrants to the labour market after education or training or as unemployed workers wishing to learn new skills.\nI hope they don\u2019t have too hard of a time policing these jobs. JobBridge is a great idea, and I would love to see it succeed.\nInternships are great\nPersonally I\u2019ve only good things to say about my experience with internships. But they were all paid, I was able to learn and earn at the same time. It showed me that the employer valued an intern enough to give them a wage. I was given responsibility, but I was also given the opportunity to learn something new. If I wasn\u2019t paid I don\u2019t think I would have been able to do one for 5 months while living in Germany for example.\nI do wonder about these employers who don\u2019t offer wages in return for work, I mean we all have to survive, pay rent, bills and eat every now and again. Expecting someone to work for free won\u2019t help them in any of these tasks. Some even say they are creating jobs, but without an employers PRSI contribution I don\u2019t think this qualifies as \u2018a job\u2019.\nBoth Michele & James have also expanded on their thoughts on this and are worth reading.\nPosted in daily life\t/ Tagged irishblogs, irishslaves, slavesie\nHitting goals\nJuly 2, 2011 July 2, 2011 / paul\t4 Comments\nAfter talking about loosing some weight at the start of 2009 and again in early 2010, I can now report things are going a little bit better in 2011. Similar to 2009, I came back from a month long visit to the US with a few extra pounds. In fact I was about 83.5 kgs, and for someone my size it was really too much. I was helped along with a few friends to get me started with swimming & going to the gym. And then after a while increasing the frequency of excerise from 1 to up to 3 times a week. I try to get at least one session in, whether it\u2019s a run or a swim, or some Gaelic Football. The main idea was to do something physical to bring myself to a sweat.\nBefore starting with the exercise myself & lauren did a 3 week detox. This was pretty hardcore, no coffee, no alcohol, certain fruits that were high in sugar (like bananas) and lots of organic vegetables & chicken. This was particularly good for removing that extra water weight, as diet low in salt and other foods that people can have allergic reactions to. If you are interested in reading the plan drop me an email.\nThe gray dots are some of the measured points, and the blue line is the average weight and predicted time I shall hit my goal. My current goal is 75kgs, which I should hit in the next few months. Right now I\u2019ve lost a total of 7.78% of my initial body weight.\nThe other day I carried a 5kg bag of coins that I was hoping to bring to the bank, and I was amazed after caring just how heavy an extra 5kg\u2019s was. Try it yourself ! I was able to clearly imagine the extra stress and strain a few Kgs can put on your joints.\nThis post isn\u2019t meant for me to say how great I am, rather to be more of a motivational post. The hardest part of anything is starting. Once you get going, and start to see the results, you\u2019ll find that your body will start to crave the adrenaline rush that you get from a tough workout. You just have to stick with it enough to create the habit.\nFor more motivation I suggest you have a look at this video about a kid learning to cycle a bike for the first time.\nHat tip to one other great lad who\u2019s progress I\u2019ve been tracking this year.\nRevenue.ie : Phishing attempt\nJanuary 10, 2011 January 6, 2014 / paul\nJust a quick warning to people who might see the following email in their inbox titled \u201cRecalculation fiscal activity for 2011\u201d supposedly from Revenue.ie.\nThe email appears to be sent from confidential@revenue.ie, but this is just spoofed (email spoofing is just too easy). The text of the email says\nPlease note that you can apply for tax refund, today we have sent your tax file number (TFN): 2 7 9 0 2 1 6 8 1 5\n(See the tax privacy note in the Taxpayer\u2019s declaration on page 8 of your tax refund) and is valid only 24 hours for security reasons.\nPlease take a few minutes of your time to complete the form, for your safety please do not reveal your TFN number to others.\nIn order to complete, please follow this link:\nhttp://www.revenue.ie/refunds\nThe contents of this email and any attachments are confidential and as applicable, copyright in these is reserved to Irish Tax and Customs.\nUnless expressly authorised by us, any further dissemination or distribution of this email or its attachments is prohibited.\nand it has a link to\nhttp://www.znovuzrozeni.cz/images/form_payment.pdf.html\nand not the official\u00c2 http://www.revenue.ie/refunds website. If you have received such an email, according to their security advice, you should forward the email to them.\nThe idea of such an email is to trick companies to fill out their personal details, such as credit card details, which will probably be used against them. The phishing site is very, very poorly done.\nIf you have filled this out, you should call your credit card company and cancel your card, and contact the revenue commissioners.\nPosted in daily life, life in IE\t/ Tagged irishblogs, Phishing, revenue.ie",

        "raw_content": "MPCA reaches settlement with Hastings flour company on air quality violations\nContact: Ralph Pribble, 651-757-2657\nThe Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) has signed an agreement with the Ardent Mills Flour Company of Hastings, Minn. resolving air-quality violations. The company agreed to correct the violations and will pay a $32,485 civil penalty.\nThe violations stem from the company\u2019s failure to obtain proper authorization from the state before making major changes to its air pollution-control systems. The company replaced part of its filtration equipment, which would have required a major amendment to the facility\u2019s existing air quality permit, without applying for the required amendment. Instead, the company continued operations with the new equipment under the old permit.\nThe company eventually applied for the permit amendment. When the MPCA subsequently conducted a routine inspection, a number of other air-quality violations were discovered, the most serious of which involved not operating the pollution-control equipment within permitted limits. Taken together, the violations created the potential for unpermitted emissions of fine particles and other pollutants.\nMPCA permits are designed to protect human health and the environment by limiting pollution emissions and discharges from facilities. When companies operate without the required permits, the resulting pollution can be harmful to people and the environment.\nThe company has since corrected the violations and agreed to operate under the pollution-control requirements of its amended permit.\nWhen calculating penalties, the MPCA takes into account how seriously the violations affected the environment, whether they were first-time or repeat violations, and how promptly the violations were reported to authorities. The agency also attempts to recover the calculated economic benefit gained by failure to comply with environmental laws in a timely manner. For a comprehensive list of enforcement actions, see the MPCA\u2019s Quarterly Summary of Enforcement Actions webpage.",

Norris is a man of contradictions; lavish but heavily in debt, excessively polite but sexually deviant. First published in 1933 Mr Norris Changes Trains piquantly evokes the atmosphere of Berlin during the rise of the Nazis.\nChristopher Isherwood Diaries Volume 1\nChristopher Isherwood was born in 1904. He began to write at university and later moved to Berlin, where he gave English lessons to support himself. He witnessed first hand the rise to power of Hitler and the Nazi party in Germany and some of his best works, such as Mr. Norris Changes Trains and Goodbye to Berlin, draw on these experiences. He created the character of Sally Bowles, later made famous as the heroine of the musical Cabaret. Isherwood travelled with W.H Auden to China in the late 1930s before going with him to America in 1939. He died on 4 January 1986.\nReleasing The Animals: bringing Christopher Isherwood and Don Bachardy's relationship to life",

        "raw_content": "Pet BehaviorMisconceptions of Pit bulls\nMisconceptions of Pit bulls\nWhen the general public thinks of pitbulls, the immediate thought is often regarding pitbull aggression. For example, when renting a house there are often certain breeds prohibited by the home owner. Pitbulls, of course, are one of them due to the large number of misconceptions associated with their breed. While some of the misconceptions have some truth behind them; many of them are misconstrued.\nMisconception 1: Pitbulls Are Always Aggressive\nPit bull aggression is not as big as an issue as people believe it is. Pitbulls have some characteristics which make them suitable candidates for dog fighting. Pitbulls have gained a bad reputation due to the types of owners they are suited with in many cases. Their reputation has not always been one of an aggressive dog; only recently has it became that due to their stance in dog fighting.\nIn the \u201csport\u201d of dog fighting, dogs are taught to never back down. They must fight until the end. This of course is why dog fighters chose the Pit bull. The Pit is a naturally \u201cstrong-willed\u201d dog breed. They are very dedicated to what they are taught. In addition to their strong-willed personality, they are extremely intelligent, learn quickly and have extreme strength. These factors also make them an excellent candidate for dog fighting.\nAny dog has the ability to act aggressively, pitbull aggression is not as large of an issue as it is made out to be. With the right owner, an owner who is dedicated to loving and caring for their dog, the Pit bull is an excellent family dog and is extremely devoted to his or her pet parent. They are often regarded (to those who know their true colors) as one of the best, most loving family dog breeds available.\nMisconception 2: Once A Fighter, Always a Fighter\nA Pitbull who has previously been a \u201cfighter\u201d cannot be rehabilitated and made into a family dog. This is absolutely not true; there are a large number of rescue organizations dedicated to rescuing and rehabilitating Pit bulls in our society. Although, just like any dog breed, some may not be suitable for family life; many of the Pitbulls rescued by these organizations do not show any signs of \u201cpitbull aggression\u201d and go on to live much better lives with loving families.\nIf you have any questions regarding pitbull aggression, you should contact our dog behaviorist for assistance. She is happy to answer any of your questions or direct you to a rescue organization dedicated to rescuing abused dogs.\nLearn more about how to raise a well behaved Pit bull.",

        "title": "Olympus \u00b5[mju:]-III Wide 100 Review - PhotographyBLOG",
        "raw_content": "Olympus \u00b5[mju:]-III Wide 100\nThe Olympus \u00b5[mju:]-III Wide 100 is an advanced compact camera with a wide 28mm-100mm zoom lens, autofocus system with 11 autofocus-points, 3-way Auto Exposure (AE) system for accurate exposure of images and six different flash modes. With a retail price of \u00a3169.99, the Olympus \u00b5[mju:]-III Wide 100 is positioned at the more expensive end of the compact camera market. Do all those features justify that cost? Read on to find out.\nThe Olympus \u00b5[mju:]-III Wide 100 has a recommended retail price of \u00a3169.99. The best UK price that I could find was \u00a3149.99 at Foto First Direct. The RRP of \u00a3169.99 positions this camera at a point in the marketplace where compact cameras end and the cheapest 35mm SLRs start. 2-megapixel digital compact cameras can also be found in this price-range, so the \u00b5[mju:]-III Wide 100 has quite a lot of competition.\nThe main selling point of the Olympus \u00b5[mju:]-III Wide 100 is its wide 28mm lens. The 28 -100mm 3.6x wide angle zoom lens is a lot wider than the usual 35mm+ lens that are found on most compact cameras. All of the other Olympus compact cameras with zoom lenses, for example, are 38mm at the wide end of the range. The largest available aperture is f4.6 when the lens is set to 28mm and f11.9 when set to 100mm - respectable enough at the short end, but very slow at the long end.\nThe Olympus \u00b5[mju:]-III Wide 100 has a Multi-Wide AF system with 11 autofocus-points for precise autofocusing, and a 3-way Auto Exposure (AE) system for accurate exposure of images. As with most compact cameras, these settings are automatic - you can't select a particular focus point, for example. You can, however, choose Spot mode instead of the AE mode, which is useful for tricky lighting conditions, providing you know how to use it correctly.\nFilm loading, advance and rewind are all automatically handled by the camera, although you can choose to rewind the film before all the frames have been exposed.\nThe built-in flash unit, which pops up whenever the camera turns on, offers 6 selectable modes - Auto, Red-eye Reduction, Off, Fill-in, Night Scene and Red-eye Reduction Night Scene. The flash takes between 0.5 and 5.5 seconds to recycle before it can be used again, and coverage when using ISO 400 film is up to 9.2m at the wide-angle lens setting and up to 3.6m at the telephoto setting.\nOlympus claims that the Olympus \u00b5[mju:]-III Wide 100 has an all-weather construction for care-free use on rainy days. In my view the camera has a plastic construction and I would quickly store it away in a coat pocket if it began to rain.\nSliding Cover Open/Camera Turned On\nSliding Cover Open/Camera Turned On/Lens Extended\nCamera with the lens fully extended\nFor a compact camera, the Olympus \u00b5[mju:]-III Wide 100 actually seems quite big, maybe to accommodate the zoom lens. It's certainly bigger than the Olympus \u00b5[mju:] 400 Digital camera that I've recently reviewed and the Olympus \u00b5[mju:] II fixed lens camera that I personally own. I could just about fit the camera into a trouser or coat pocket without it being too obtrusive.\nAs with most compact cameras, the Olympus \u00b5[mju:]-III Wide 100 is pretty straight-forward to use, partly because there aren't that many controls on the camera. You slide the lens cover across (a feature used on most Olympus compacts) and the lens zooms out to its widest setting. The bulit-in flash unit also pops-up, even when the flash setting is off, which I personally found a bit annoying. I'd prefer it if the flash unit only appeared when I wanted it to. It also has a rather flimsy feel to its construction, feeling as though it would easily snap off if you caught it on something.\nThe lens zooms out quite a long way when it is set to the longest focal length of 100mm (see the photographs above in the Design section). The operation of the lens when zooming is pretty noisy, and I definitely wouldn't try any close-range candid street photography with this camera. It takes about 2 seconds to zoom from the widest to longest settings, and the switch used to operate the zoom feels responsive enough. The Olympus designers have positioned this switch next to the shutter button, which meant that I found it difficult to quickly zoom the lens and take a picture, as I used my index finger to either use the zoom or press the shutter. This is fine for photographs of static subjects, but not for those situations where you want to frame the subject by zooming and be ready to capture that fleeting moment.\nThere is a small LCD panel on the back of the camera which displays the current settings and the battery life. Underneath are three very small buttons that control the flash, self-timer/remote control (an optional accessory) and the exposure mode (spot or AE). There is also a small button which rewinds the film midroll - this is recessed and requires a sharp point like a pencil tip to operate it, which isn't very user friendly on the rare occasions that you will want to use this feature.\nOlympus have fitted the \u00b5[mju:]-III Wide 100 with a tripod socket, but unfortunately they've placed it so near to the right-hand side of the camera that it's practically useless. I'm not sure how many of these cameras will ever be mounted on a tripod anyway, so I'd question its inclusion anyway. The final feature of note is the dioptre adjustment knob, an essential feature for spectacle wearers, which is positioned just to the left of the viewfinder. Unfortunately it protrudes further than the viewfinder and you can feel it sometimes against the inside of the bridge of your nose when looking through your right eye.\nI used Kodak Royal Supra ISO 200 print film during the Review and had the film processed at The Strand, London branch of Jessops.\nAs this is a review of the Olympus \u00b5[mju:]-III Wide 100 camera, rather then Kodak Royal Supra film, I'll concentrate on the aspects of image quality that are directly attributable to the camera.\nThe \u00b5[mju:]-III Wide 100 had a tendency to under-expose slightly, resulting in photographs that looked saturated but which lacked some shadow detail.\nOn a few occasions the camera got the exposure absolutely wrong, as shown in Sample 3 on the left. In this image the \u00b5[mju:]-III Wide 100 seems to have exposed for the white sign, resulting in a very bright street sign with a very under-exposed background. The Auto Exposure (AE) system is way off the mark in this example. Furthermore, I can see on the print that there is an unwanted purple haloing effect around the edges of the sign, making it glow - it definitely wasn't glowing when I took the photograph!\nOn the other hand, the \u00b5[mju:]-III Wide 100 handled some tricky lighting situations well. The bright sky in the photograph shown on the left initially fooled the Olympus \u00b5[mju:] 400 Digital camera that I reviewed a couple of weeks ago; it only got the exposure right when I used the Spot mode to take a reading off the building. The digital camera was fooled by the bright sky and under-exposed the building, creating a silhouette. The \u00b5[mju:]-III Wide 100 was not fooled by the bright sky, even though this photo was taken using its default metering mode. The \u00b5[mju:]-III Wide 100 has delivered a very pleasing exposure with an even balance between the building and the sky; you can just about see the cloud formations.\nSo overall the \u00b5[mju:]-III Wide 100 produced exposures that were a bit hit and miss in the bright, sunny outdoor conditions in which this Review was conducted. It wasn't as consistent as the Olympus IS-500 film camera that I reviewed last week; some exposures were actually more pleasing, but some were disastrous. The lens delivered fairly sharp images with some noticeable barrel or pin-cushion distortion at either end of the 28-120mm zoom range, but nothing too serious. Overall I was just about satisfied with the images that the combination of the IS-500 camera and \u00b5[mju:]-III Wide 100 film delivered, but I'd be worried about trusting the camera's exposure system in the future.\nI scanned all of the prints on my Black Widow 4830 Pro flatbed scanner at 72 dpi using the default settings. This initially created a problem - all of the scans were far too dark. To give you a better idea of what the prints actually look like, I used the Levels tool in Photoshop to set the midtones of each print to a setting of 1.50, so that the Input Levels was set to 0 ; 1.50 ; 255. I then cropped them, resized them to 300x200 pixels and saved them for the Web as JPEGs with a Quality setting of 60.\nSample 1 (28mm Wide-Angle Setting)\nSample 2 (100mm Telephoto Setting)\nWith it's champagne finish, sliding lens cover and extensive specification, the \u00b5[mju:]-III Wide 100 certainly aims to impress. It does feel well-built, which is important for a camera that will spend most of its life in a pocket or slung in a bag. It's certainly not the smallest compact camera in the world, but that is actually a plus point for me, as it sits comfortably in your hand and is quite a tactile, easy-to use camera.\nThe 28mm lens is definitely the highlight of this camera, allowing you to cram more of the scene into your photographs. Unfortunately it seems to have come at a cost - \u00a3169.99 of cost to be exact. The \u00b5[mju:]-III Wide 100 is faced by exactly the same competition as the Olympus IS-500 that I reviewed last week; cheap 35mm SLRs which offer all the benefits of the most popular photographic format, and cheap digicams which offer the thrill of being able to see your photos instantly. I enjoyed using the \u00b5[mju:]-III Wide 100, but I didn't enjoy using it so much that I would pay the high price tag that comes with it. And even that 28mm lens isn't enough to convince me otherwise...\nOlympus UK - Olympus \u00b5[mju:] Series",

        "raw_content": "These leaked images claim to be of the Sony Xperia X2\nMax Langridge | 9 February 2017\n- Photos purporting to be next Xperia flagship\n- Show phone with similar OmniBalance design and 4GB RAM\nChinese social site Weibo is at it again leaking photos of upcoming smartphones, which were picked up by TechTastic. Samsung and Apple are safe this time, as it's Sony that's in the firing line for a leak ahead of launch. The site has obtained images purporting to be Sony's next flagship smartphone, which we're calling the Xperia X2 for now. There's been no official word on a name just yet, so it's easier to stick to something that's easy to follow.\nThe photos don't give a huge amount away, other than the fact the new device follows an incredibly similar design language to Sony's flagships from the past few years. That it uses the now traditional OmniBalance design, which places the power button - and in the X2's case, fingerprint sensor - halfway down the side of the phone.\nThere's an image of a screen showing some memory information about the phone, and it shows it has 4GB of RAM. This helps us to assume it is a new phone as current Sony flagships come with just 3GB of RAM.\nThere are however, different phones in one picture, lying side by side. One phone has a rather large bezel at the bottom, while the one to its right appears to be missing it entirely. They both resemble Sony phones, so could there be two versions of the upcoming flagship? It's not a rumour we've heard before, so for now we'll say the source isn't completely reliable. There is also what is clearly a tablet in another picture too, with large bezels on each side. It's not clear if this is a new or old tablet, but considering Sony has tended to stick with large bezels on all of its previous tablet models, it could be a glimpse at something new.\nSony could go all out at MWC with five new smartphones\nMobile World Congress 2017: Nokia, Huawei, Sony smartphones and more\nBecause the photos can't be fully verified and there's still no official word from Sony, although there has been a report to suggest the Japanese phone maker will be bringing five new models to Mobile World Congress at the end of February. If a new flagship is one of those, we don't have long to wait, although a following report claims we'll have to wait until later in 2017.",

        "raw_content": "Social media advertising has shown itself to be a lucrative advertising outlet for almost every industry. 2017-01-20T11:03:00-05:00\nThe Future of Marketing and Advertising\nSocial media platforms allow individuals to connect with each other, share news, videos, and pictures, regardless of physical distance. Because of smartphones, people can carry social media with them wherever they go, and social media\u2019s popularity cannot be denied.\n1 out of every seven people on the planet uses Facebook\nThere are nearly 1 billion accounts combined on Twitter and Instagram\nAlmost one-third of Earth\u2019s population owns a smartphone\nSocial media accounts for the majority of app use on smartphones\nBusinesses want to capitalize on the exposure that a social media platform can ensure, so social media marketing and social media advertising have become critical practices.\nThe discipline of marketing focuses on creating a demand for goods and services in order to meet the wants and needs of consumers. Concentrate on a single subject instead of trying to specialize in multiple areas, because it is easier to focus on something specific instead of forfeiting quality for a higher quantity of content. What need does a particular service fulfill that a consumer does not already receive from elsewhere? Recognizing what is unique about content will make a service much easier to market.\nThe Most Popular Social Media Platforms\nThe optimal platforms for social media marketing are Facebook and Twitter. For businesses, Facebook offers a \"preferred audience\" page which will help match an individual specialty to the right audience. Twitter is ranked as one of the most visited sites in the U.S. and is ideal for quick and easy updates. Other popular social media platforms, such as Instagram and Pinterest, tend to attract niche audiences and are very visually oriented. A business with a keen eye for visuals may find those sites useful.\nRelationships with the Audience\nA positive brand association is imperative, so creating, developing, and maintaining relationships with an audience is paramount. Regularly blogging on social media about services and events will help keep people aware of what a business can offer. Posting something at least once a week is recommended. Consumers may have questions, and responding in a timely manner will sustain good relations. Customers who are treated well are more likely to share content and expand awareness of a product or service.\nKeep Track of Content Performance\nThere are different programs that analyze keyword performance across various social media sites. Those tools will help tailor a particular post to the specific social media platform where it is likely to perform better. Monitoring how well those posts are performing by keeping track of likes and shares will help a company refine a strategy. Analyze this information regularly so content can be published at the time and place it will best perform.\nSocial Media Advertising vs. Television Advertising\nSocial media advertising is a paid form of promotion for goods or services that utilize social media to target consumers. Nearly half of consumers use social media to consider purchasing decisions, and advertisers know it. In terms of actual dollars spent, digital advertising is projected to surpass television advertising at any moment.\nThe average person spends nearly 3 hours per day watching television\nThe average Facebook user spends roughly 50 minutes on the social media site every day\nIn one study, almost 3/4 of respondents admitted to visiting social media during commercials\nNearly all of those respondents admitted that they preferred Facebook\nPeople are ignoring television commercials and opting to check social media, and Facebook is the leader on the internet regarding social media ad-spending in the United States.\nTargeting by Demographics and Interests\nFacebook and Twitter offer unique ads based on a company\u2019s needs and budget. Both social media platforms allow a business to target consumers by demographics and interests. This revolutionary tactic fits the right business with the right customer \u2013 something that television certainly cannot offer. A company willing to spend money on advertising using this method is much more likely to see a higher return on investment.\nSocial Media Advertising in the Digital Age\nAs the digital age continues, more people are using social media and spending, even more, time on social media platforms. There are now agencies that specialize in digital ad campaigns, all of which include social media. Even those companies know that social media is the future of advertising. Someone who wants to take advantage of the most visible advertising real-estate must consider a plan for utilizing social media for advertising. Start taking action, and begin capitalizing on the potential that awaits what you offer on social media.",

Long-time fans will recognize some of the song titles, but the songs themselves have been reworked and transformed far away from their original versions. Tsu's quiet, almost whispered vocals bring a whole new aura to the proceedings, despite the familiar riffs. It's so laid back in places it's practically horizontal, with only occasional trademark piercing guitar squeals threatening to destroy the peace and calm.

        "raw_content": "Is the U.S. walking away from human rights?\nGen. Abdel Fattah Sisi\u2019s Egypt holds at least 40,000 political prisoners, secular democrats as well as Islamic extremists. His security forces have killed thousands \u2014 at least 817 at a single demonstration, according to Human Rights Watch. For three years, the Obama administration kept Sisi at arm\u2019s length, working with his government on counterterrorism while expressing disapproval of its repression.\nNo longer. This week, President Trump welcomed Sisi to the White House and hailed him as a hero.\n\u201cWe are very much behind President Sisi,\u201d Trump said. \u201cHe\u2019s done a fantastic job in a very difficult situation.\u201d\nIn public, no U.S. official said a word about human rights. Trump\u2019s spokesman refused to say whether the issue came up in private.\nSisi isn\u2019t the only strongman who\u2019s getting a free pass from the Trump administration. China\u2019s President Xi Jinping will be visiting Trump\u2019s Florida vacation home at Mar-a-Lago on Thursday, and he\u2019s not likely to hear much about human rights either. And last week, the Trump administration told Congress it intends to lift the human rights conditions that had blocked the sale of F-16 fighter jets to Bahrain.\nIt\u2019s one thing to retreat from putting human rights first. It\u2019s another to abandon the field entirely.\nMost famously, Russia\u2019s Vladimir Putin has long been an object of Trump\u2019s praise for his strength, even as his regime assassinates opponents and jails protesters.\nTrump made it clear during his presidential campaign that he was interested in military strength and trade deals more than promoting democracy.\nBut it\u2019s still striking: The president is systematically dismantling a 40-year-old bipartisan tradition of U.S. foreign policy.\nPresidents have used rhetoric about freedom and democracy for more than a century, but Jimmy Carter elevated human rights to a top priority in 1977. Ronald Reagan made the issue bipartisan in the 1980s as he campaigned to undermine the Soviet empire. Even after the end of the Cold War, all of their successors maintained the tradition with varying degrees of enthusiasm \u2014 until Trump.\nNot only did the new president define his foreign policy as \u201cAmerica First,\u201d he once breezily suggested that he didn\u2019t see much difference between American democracy and Putin\u2019s authoritarianism.\n\u201cWe have a lot of killers,\u201d he shrugged in a famous interview on Fox News. \u201cYou think our country is so innocent?\u201d\nIt\u2019s one thing to retreat from putting human rights first. It\u2019s another to abandon the field entirely. It\u2019s not only morally offensive; it\u2019s bad policy, for practical reasons.\nThe moral argument is straightforward: Americans who believe in democracy and due process of law ought to care when they are denied to people in other countries. But the practical arguments are compelling, as well. Democratic countries are, by and large, less dangerous than dictatorships \u2014 less likely to start wars and spawn international terrorist organizations. We should want more democracies for our safety\u2019s sake. Our strongest alliances are with other democracies, partly because they share our values. If we no longer care as much about those values, we are likely to weaken our alliances as well.\nThat proposition has a flip side: Our most important adversaries \u2014 Russia, China, North Korea, Iran \u2014 are all authoritarian states. Pressing them to grant political and human rights to their citizens isn\u2019t just consistent with American values; it\u2019s a way to apply leverage. Notice how insecure those regimes are when the question is raised \u2014 how touchy China\u2019s leaders get, for instance, when their domestic repression is publicized.\nThese are pretty low-cost diplomatic tools. And they don\u2019t get in the way of deal-making, unless we choose to let them. Reagan negotiated nuclear arms deals with the Soviet Union even as he demanded an end to the Berlin Wall. Other presidents cut plenty of trade deals with China despite friction over human rights.\nWalking away from human rights is a sign of weakness, not strength. It\u2019s consistent with Trump\u2019s view that the United States is \u201ca crippled country,\u201d a superpower that can no longer pull its weight. It\u2019s a retreat from American exceptionalism; it means we think we no longer have the capability to think much beyond a narrow conception of American interests.\nTrump often boasts that his foreign policy is about \u201chard power\u201d \u2014 military assets, financial strength \u2014 and not \u201csoft power,\u201d intangible assets such as values and alliances. But the strategist who coined the term \u201csoft power,\u201d Harvard\u2019sJoseph Nye, has long argued that it\u2019s not an either/or choice. The most successful nation, he contends, will find an effective combination of both kinds of power.\nSoft power is one of the comparative advantages the United States enjoys over its rivals. If we\u2019re serious about promoting democracy and human rights, people in other countries may ally with us because they share those aspirations.\nIf, however, we abandon those values, and suggest that as a nation we\u2019re not so different, really, from Putin\u2019s Russia or Xi\u2019s China, we\u2019re giving that asset away. It\u2019s a form of unilateral disarmament, an idea Trump would naturally reject if it came up in a discussion of hard power.\nThe worst thing is: He may not even realize it.\nHi!

This revolutionary and enormously disruptive technology has created a completely new set of challenges for parents, ones that are entirely different to those of a generation ago.\nKeeping Your Children Safe Online addresses these challenges head-on. The author, John Parsons, is arguably the country\u2019s leading authority on cyber safety for children. He works all over New Zealand with young people and their parents, showing them how they can stay safe in the online world. He also works as a consultant with the police, teachers and the health sector, and individually with children and their families to help them when things go wrong online.\nJohn brings an unparalleled wealth of direct experience to this issue. He has used this to develop a toolbox of highly practical, realistic and effective strategies that enable both children and their parents to deal with the challenges of digital technology, such as maintaining oversight of your child in the digital world, establishing boundaries for acceptable use, and preventing online sexual predation, cyber bullying, and cyber crime. These strategies do not depend on technological know-how \u2013 rather, they simply require you to have a clear set of family values, and then to enable your child to broadcast these into the online world.\nKeeping Your Children Safe Online is a hugely significant and ultimately empowering book that is essential reading for any modern parent.\nAuthor: John Parsons\nPages: approx 150",

Then, you need to prepare, prepare, prepare.\nGetting Temporary Power to Your Construction Site\nBefore you reach out to any power company about getting temporary power, you should have the answers to a few questions they might ask. Have a list of questions ready too, if you have any. This will help the sales representative you speak to get your proposal started. The whole process will go smoother and quicker by preparing for this phone call. After all, the goal is to get temporary power as soon as possible.\nDuring the call, the power company will ask:\nUpon initial contact, the power company you work with will acquire whatever equipment you need for however long you need it. Letting the sales representative know this information before coming for your site visit will expedite the process.\nNow that you\u2019re on the phone with them, it\u2019s a good time to ask questions. You may have questions, such as:\nHow much power do I need? (Sometimes you don\u2019t know how much power you need. Any power company you talk to should be able to help you figure it out.)\nHow fast do you respond if power cuts out?\nDon\u2019t forget; you will want to deal with the power company throughout this process. Make sure you have an understanding of the customer service setup before working with any company. You\u2019ll want them to be available if you have any problems, like if the power suddenly cuts out. Again, preparation is key to your success.\nOnce you\u2019ve been in contact with a few companies, they are going to schedule a site visit. After that, you will receive a proposal. From that point, you just need to decide which company you want to work with.\nYou want your journey towards acquiring temporary power to be seamless. However, for that to happen, you will need to prepare and organize. After all, you have a lot of other things to do for the job. You don\u2019t want to worry about your temporary power the whole time.",

        "raw_content": "Clinton orders review of cultural exchange program\nAn indictment accuses the mob of using the program to bring Eastern European women to U.S. strip clubs.\nJACKSON, Miss. \u2014 Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton has ordered an \u201cextensive and thorough review\u201d of a foreign exchange program that has been used by U.S. businesses as a source of cheap labor and exploited by criminals to import women to work in the sex industry.\nIn the latest debacle for the J-1 Summer Work Travel visa, a federal indictment unsealed last week accuses the mafia of using the cultural exchange program to bring Eastern European women to work in New York strip clubs.\nThe U.S. House Judiciary Committee\u2019s immigration subcommittee also has been gathering information on the J-1 visa, which was created in 1963 to allow college students from other countries to spend their summer breaks living, working and traveling in the United States.\nAs the program has grown to bring more than 100,000 young people here annually, it has become as much about money as cultural understanding.\nThe State Department has made several changes since an Associated Press investigation last year uncovered widespread abuses, including living and working conditions that some participants compared to indentured servitude. In one of the worst cases, a woman said she was beaten, raped and forced to work as a stripper in Detroit after being promised a job as a waitress in Virginia.\nMore common than sex trade abuses is shabby housing, scarce work hours and paltry pay. In August, dozens of workers protested conditions at a candy factory that packs Hershey chocolates in Hershey, Pa., complaining of hard physical labor and pay deductions for rent that often left them with little money.\nA State Department spokesman, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said Clinton \u201chas called for an extensive and thorough review of the program.\u201d\n\u201cWe continue to be committed to working to strengthen the Summer Work Travel Program to safeguard the health and welfare of the participants,\u201d the official said. \u201cWe have already instituted one set of reforms and are working toward additional ones that take additional measures to protect participants and prioritize the original cultural intent of the program.\u201d\nThe New York case was made public just days after the State Department opened a period of public comment on proposed changes that would require companies that sponsor the participants to gather more information about employment and living arrangements.\nIt\u2019s not clear if the proposed changes would have prevented the situation in New York, in which authorities say fraudulent offers for jobs as waitresses were used to help Eastern European women get visas to come to the United States. Instead of working in restaurants, they allegedly danced in strip clubs. Authorities say members of the Gambino and Bonnano crime families were involved, along with the Russian mob.\nThe reforms being considered by the State Department would limit and refine the types of jobs students can have, expand the list of prohibited employment categories, and strengthen \u201cthe cultural aspects of the program to ensure that the objective of the program \u2014 positive exposure to the United States \u2014 is accomplished.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Controversy crops up at panel on innovation in agriculture\nA drone awaits takeoff at the Southeastern Agricultural Center\u2019s research farm in Moultrie, Ga. The drone monitors crop vigor, insect infestation and fungal infection for the agriculture industry. (AP/Johnny Clark)\nWhen I write about startups, I often wonder how many people automatically picture young, hoody-wearing computer programmers banging away on laptops with empty cans of Red Bull scattered across a table.\nIt\u2019s a false stereotype, of course. Entrepreneurs can be any age (a Kauffman Foundation study found the average age of U.S.-born tech entrepreneurs to be 39) and in any type of business.\nInnovation is the same story. The mobile app developers and Internet companies don\u2019t have a monopoly on innovation, which is simply the introduction of a new idea, method or process to an existing system. Innovation happens across every industry.\nThat fact was discussed Thursday morning at a Maine Startup and Create Week panel on innovation in the food and agriculture industries. Moderated by Peggy Grodinsky, who edits the Maine Sunday Telegram\u2019s Source section, the panel consisted of Brad McNamara, CEO of Freight Farms, a Boston startup that transforms old shipping containers into insulated hydroponic farms that can yield as much fresh produce as a one-acre plot of land; Rob LeClerc, CEO of AgFunder, a New York City-based investment platform that connects investors with innovative agriculture companies; and Marada Cook, who is co-director of Crown o\u2019 Maine Organic Cooperative in Vassalboro and co-owner of Northern Girl, a local food processing company in Aroostook County.\nThere is a wealth of innovation going on in the agriculture industry, according to LeClerc. His company recently participated in an $800,000 investment in a company called OnFarm, which pulls together disparate data from several new Internet-enabled tools available to farmers and aggregates it for the farmer who wants real-time information about their farms, according to TechCrunch. While driverless cars aren\u2019t available to the general public yet, there are already potato farmers in Aroostook County using GPS-enabled tractors that drive themselves. But innovation in agriculture is not just tech, he said.\n\u201cIt\u2019s not just apps,\u201d he said. \u201cIt could be new business models. It could be businesses enabled by new technology like LEDs.\u201d\nFreight Farms is one of those companies benefiting from new technology like LEDs. The company retrofits its shipping containers into modular farms, but without energy-efficient LEDs, which provide the \u201csunlight\u201d inside the containers, the energy costs of using traditional sun lamps would not be viable. Freight Farms, which raised more than $30,000 on Kickstarter before closing a $1.2 million Series A round last year, has developed a farming system that will allow more local food to be grown in urban settings anywhere in the world (they\u2019re obviously easily shippable). And since the former containers are insulated, they will also allow for fresh produce to be produced throughout the year in places like Maine. They\u2019re also stackable. And, perhaps the coolest aspect, they\u2019re \u201csmart,\u201d meaning they are connected to the Internet and can be controlled from a smartphone.\nMcNamara said the idea was to make use of the space that goes to waste wherever people live, whether it\u2019s sidelots or areas around homes.\n\u201cSo for us it was the creative and flexible use of that space, which we\u2019ve seen grow everywhere and we think people are really starting to embrace,\u201d he said.\nNorthern Girl, which sources root vegetables from Aroostook County farms, processes them in its facility and distributes them to retail consumers and Maine school cafeterias, is also innovating. Cook said they\u2019re working on building their own blast freezer using some off-the-shelf components, which would be much less expensive than the traditional industrial models that go for upwards of $100,000, she said.\n\u201cIt\u2019s not a proven thing, but we\u2019re going to try it,\u201d she said. \u201cWe have a lot of free cold air.\u201d\nCook said farmers in Maine could certainly benefit from greater access to technology. Even just cell phone access is sometimes an issue, she said.\n\u201cYou\u2019d be surprised by the number of farmers who can\u2019t answer their cell phones on their properties,\u201d she said.\nAttendees who presumed the panelists would agree on using technology in agriculture were surprised. Fireworks broke out when the issue of robots and drones was brought up.\nLeClerc, from AgFunder, mentioned a company in the Midwest working on robots that can move throughout a crop depositing just the right amount of fertilizer in just the right places, saving money and increasing crop yield. Cook pushed back, saying she didn\u2019t like the idea of letting a drone or robot loose on her farm.\nLeClerc was surprised by Cook\u2019s reaction and the \u201cdisconnect\u201d that led to her rejection of some types of technology. He asked if it was born of \u201creligious\u201d beliefs.\nCook said she doesn\u2019t like technology that removes farmers from the land, and worries that \u201cusing drones makes us less able to respond to the environment we are living in.\u201d\nAsked after the panel to clarify her position on using drones on farms to improve efficiency, Cook said she doesn\u2019t think creating efficiency should always be a farmer\u2019s end goal.\n\u201cIt\u2019s kind of stupid to bring efficiencies at the expense of jobs,\u201d she said, adding that if farms were only operating within local ecosystems and not competing on a global scale that downward pressure to cut costs at the expense of jobs wouldn\u2019t be necessary. \u201cYou want to be as efficient as makes sense.\u201d\nProviding jobs for her neighbors is important to her. She is also wary that once people go down the road of using drones and robots, it would become a slippery slope.\n\u201cWhy don\u2019t I have drones get my kids out of bed and put them on the bus so I can sleep all day?\u201d she said. \u201cWhere does it stop?\u201d\nIn an interview after the panel, LeClerc said the drone industry by some estimates is expected to reach $75 billion by 2020, and that 75 percent of that will be in the agriculture industry.\n\u201cThere are two million farms in the U.S. and most could benefit from drones,\u201d he said.\nThe deployment of more drones and robotics on farms doesn\u2019t mean the farmer is out of a job \u2014 \u201cthe farmer would still make the decisions of when, how and what,\u201d he said \u2014 but it would probably mean farms wouldn\u2019t need as many employees as in the past.\nIf farmers like Cook push back on the use of drones on farms, it\u2019s not hard to imagine the pushback other companies will receive for the new products they\u2019re developing. Modern Meadows, a Brooklyn-based startup that can grow leather and meat in a lab without slaughtering any animals, just raised $10 million in a seed round, according to the Wall Street Journal.\nCarolyn Mattick and Brad Allenby, a student and professor from Arizona State University, tackled the subject in an article in a recent issue of Issues in Science and Technology:\n\u201cFood is a culturally charged domain, and the technological evolution of meat may well outpace cultural acceptance of radically new food production technology,\u201d they wrote. \u201cNonetheless, people may eventually look at a T-bone steak with the nostalgia they feel for the Apple IIe: It was an important contributor to technological evolution and economic productivity, but no one would choose it over an iPad.\u201d",

        "title": "Is a \"60 - 80 cent\" Discount Going to Stifle Starbucks' Growth?",
        "raw_content": "Janet Adamy wrote a fascinating article in yesterday\u2019s Wall Street Journal (\u201cMcDonald\u2019s Takes on a Weakened Starbucks\u201d) on McDonald\u2019s entry into the specialty coffee market. Jumping into the coffee drink fray, McDonald\u2019s is installing coffee bars in its close to 14,000 U.S. stores. Specially trained coffee barista employees will whip up coffee products (lattes, cappuccinos, and Frappuccino-like drinks) that directly compete with Starbucks\u2019 coffee concoctions. McDonald\u2019s expects this initiative to add a billion dollars in revenue to its current U.S. operations (current revenue is $21.6 billion).\nSo how does McDonald\u2019s plan to take on Starbucks? By price\u2026of course. The fast food giant isn\u2019t claiming to offer a better product or more comfortable environment. Instead, its advertisements in test markets emphasize price: McDonald\u2019s coffee products are 60 to 80 cents lower than competitors\u2019 products. From a value perspective, McDonald\u2019s is in essence telling its customers \u201cour product isn\u2019t necessarily better, but it is cheaper.\u201d That said, McDonald\u2019s does have advantages over Starbucks. Consumer Reports recently rated its drip coffee to be better than Starbucks. And McDonald\u2019s are often more conveniently located.\nSo what do you think? Is the Starbucks\u2019 experience and high quality coffees worth a 60 to 80 cent premium over McDonald\u2019s? Admittedly, Starbucks offers a superior environment to enjoy a coffee drink. But that may not be a major advantage - Janet\u2019s article mentions that about 80% of orders purchased at U.S. Starbucks are consumed outside the store. A 60 to 80 cent savings is significant for a coffee drink that is going to be consumed in the car or at the office. Would it be d\u00e9class\u00e9 to stroll into the office with a McDonald\u2019s coffee cup in hand? At first brush, perhaps yes. But in Boston, many coffee drinkers proudly purchase their coffee from a donut vendor\u2026Dunkin\u2019 Donuts.\nMcDonald\u2019s is also seeking to serve new customers by expanding the coffee drink market. Advertisements in its Kansas City test market emphasize that customers won\u2019t face a \u201ccondescending look\u201d for mispronouncing the size of the drink. Instead of using the Starbucks vernacular of \u201ctall,\u201d \u201cventi,\u201d and \u201cgrande,\u201d McDonald\u2019s labels its drink sizes as simply small, medium, and large. Additionally, from passing out complimentary lattes and mochas, McDonald\u2019s realized that many of its customers \u201cdon\u2019t know what a latte is.\u201d A new segment of customers may become hooked on coffee drinks.\nMy bet is that a \u201c60 to 80 cent\u201d discount is going to stifle Starbuck\u2019s growth\u2026it\u2019s all about price my friends.\nBy the way, I recently read and highly recommend \u201cHow Starbucks Saved My Life\u201d by Michael Gill Gates. Michael's book provides an interesting look at the inner workings of a Starbucks' store. The Wall Street Journal rated it one of the top 10 books of 2007 and it is indeed a great read.\nFrom Donna on January 8th, 2008\nGosh...coffee is such a different experience for some many people. Starbucks didn't just create a easy place to get a latte, they created a whole culture. So, it's tough to pull folks away from brand loyalty with a discount immediately. Has Starbucks saturated their market? Will their only growth come from McD's customers? I agree that there is a whole new market for McDs that Starbucks isn't serving and there are definitely some folks that will move to a new vendor based on price..I heard a great comment when I first started my career...\"There's no loyalty and penny off can't buy\". It was specifically for commodity semiconductors. But Starbucks took a commodity and made it a specialty...so does this really apply to their type of coffee anymore? McDs can grab some growth away from Starbucks, but it will take awhile to chip away at their customer base and their brand. McD can create a new brand for their coffee products, might be smart for those folks that want to be part of the \"cool club\" and not the cheap club. It's a fascinating story...\nFrom Steve on January 8th, 2008\nStarbucks has a serious problem in the long run. This is a brilliant move by McDonalds. That price difference is going to have a significant effect on a lot of folks. I'm not talking about the professional in a downtown office sopping at the corner. I'm talking about just about everybody else that is familiar with McDonalds and with the trade off you make when you eat there. Product will be solid and the price is right. Very significant for Starbucks.",

        "raw_content": "2018 Porsche Panamera vs. 2018 Chevrolet Corvette\nWhen you are searching for a great car that you can take home with you, there is a need to carefully think about your options. In case your list happens to include the 2018 Porsche Panamera and the 2018 Chevrolet Corvette, we can help you come up with your best decision yet. Our comparison will make you understand more about these two cars and why the Porsche should be your next car.\nThe 2018 Chevrolet Corvette promises the elegance that is common to most if not all car models from the car maker. It exudes luxury at all levels and even with a two-seater like this one, the space is not cramped up. The cabin has been carefully designed to meet the needs of users. What is frustrating though is the fact that entering and exiting the car is quite problematic. Add to that the fact that outward visibility has been compromised as well.\nYou will really find the 2018 Porsche Panamera promising along the lines of design and style. Just by looking at it from first glance, you will notice how the rugged edges define the overall look of the car from the outside. Inside it, you will notice that the cabin has been carefully crafted too. A welcome addition is the fact that the cabin is spacious and can accommodate passengers and drivers of all sizes.\nWhen it comes to technology and safety, the 2018 Chevrolet Corvette uses its very own Chevrolet connectivity which incorporates not just smartphone integration but also an impressive WiFi and OnStar system. Its MyLink system is also very easy to use. Blind spot monitoring seems to have made up for the compromised outward visibility. However, some safety aids are missing on the basic trim level.\nThe 2018 Porsche Panamera is definitely a luxury sedan because of the presence of technology and safety features that you will surely be proud of once you become its owner. Consider how the 12.3-inch touchscreen interface can work for your needs while you are driving. If you think you have not had enough, you can definitely rely on safety features that include adaptive cruise control and stability control intervention among others.\nYou will definitely love the V6, 2.9-liter engine in the 2018 Porsche Panamera because it is the reason that the ride is so powerful with a maximum output of 405lb-ft of torque and 440 horsepower. Powering the 2018 Chevrolet Corvette, on the other hand, is a V8, 6.2-liter engine which can produce up to as much as 460lb-ft of torque and 455 horsepower. With such an engine size it is at least expected to produce a higher total output when compared to the Panamera.\nThe impressive Porsche Panamera will truly define everything that you want from your next big investment. The Chevrolet Corvette is one tough competitor but it does not have the great things you will find in the Porsche, all factors considered.",

        "raw_content": "Queensland to open up shale oil industry\nThe government of Australia's state of Queensland intends to give the go-ahead to the development of a commercial shale oil industry, Natural Resources Minister Andrew Crips said earlier this week.\nThe government of Australia's state of Queensland intends to give the go-ahead to the development of a commercial shale oil industry, Natural Resources Minister Andrew Crips said earlier this week, noting however that this could happen only if certain environment requirements are met, ABC News reports.\nThe first move under the plan will be allowing shale oil operator Queensland Energy Resources (QER) to proceed with bringing its trial plant in Gladstone to full commercial operation. The plant has been running for a couple of years and has already demonstrated it can operate without harming the environment, according to the minister. The strategy also envisages developing other oil shale fields in the state, but first monitoring will be carried out to examine their potential environmental impact, Crips explained.\nThe legislation changes are intended to address the depletion of crude oil reserves and make Queensland a leading supplier of oil going forward. Besides, opening up the oil shale industry will also have a favourable impact on the economy, as it will result in the creation of thousands of jobs in the state and will see fresh money flowing into Queensland's coffers, Queensland Premier Campbell Newman says.\nRELATED: Countries around the world consider fracking after US success\nOverriding the 20-year restrictions imposed on oil shale mining in 2008 by the former Bligh Labor government, however, will not apply to the McFarlane oil shale deposit near Proserpine, north of Mackay, Crips noted. The moratorium on developing this particular field will remain valid until 2028, as agreed earlier. The premier admitted that he was greatly concerned about any potential mining activities in the area since such development would have a devastating effect on the local ecosystem. Besides, the deposit is close to the Great Barrier Reef, Australia's most spectacular natural feature and the world's largest coral reef.\nThe move was welcomed by the Queensland Resources Council (QRC), which believes that it will help the state lower its reliance on oil supplies from abroad, its spokesman Michael Roche said. According to Opposition environment spokeswoman Jackie Trad, however, this is a significant shift in policy regarding resources extraction and will not benefit the state since it poses major environmental risks and has been undertaken without consultation. The Australian Conservation Foundation (ACF) is of the same opinion and says the proposal was shelved several years ago after it was concluded that the consequences for the environment would be severe. According to its spokesman Tony Mohr, the shale oil industry is still a major threat to the planet. He said he was really surprised by the government's plan to revive the shale oil industry because there are indeed several shale oil deposits across the state, but the oil extracted would have to be transported through the Great Barrier Reef channels, thus endangering aquatic life.\nThe Mackay Conservation Group (MCG) is also unhappy with the government's decision and believes that the issue needs a more careful approach.\nTags:\tfrackingnatural gasNews & Notesqueenslandshale drillingshale gas\nNext post Obama pledges to cut red tape in oil and gas drilling approvals\nPrevious post Availability, security and the internet of things at the ARC World Industry Forum",

        "raw_content": "Jeff Flake goes ham on Trump and the Republican party\nSen. Jeff Flake announced Tuesday that he will not seek re-election in 2018, and then promptly took the Senate floor and began a lengthy screed against the state of Republican politics in the Trump era.\nBelow are the top 5 lines from the fiery speech:\n\"I rise today with no small measure of regret. Regret, because of the state of our disunion, regret because of the disrepair and destructiveness of our politics, regret because of the indecency of our discourse, regret because of the coarseness of our leadership, regret for the compromise of our moral authority, and by our -- all of our -- complicity in this alarming and dangerous state of affairs. It is time for our complicity and our accommodation of the unacceptable to end.\"\n\"We must never adjust to the present coarseness of our national dialogue -- with the tone set at the top. We must never regard as 'normal' the regular and casual undermining of our democratic norms and ideals. We must never meekly accept the daily sundering of our country -- the personal attacks, the threats against principles, freedoms, and institutions, the flagrant disregard for truth or decency, the reckless provocations, most often for the pettiest and most personal reasons, reasons having nothing whatsoever to do with the fortunes of the people that we have all been elected to serve.\"\n\"We must stop pretending that the degradation of our politics and the conduct of some in our executive branch are normal. They are not normal. Reckless, outrageous, and undignified behavior has become excused and countenanced as 'telling it like it is,' when it is actually just reckless, outrageous, and undignified.\"\n\"When such behavior emanates from the top of our government, it is something else: It is dangerous to a democracy. Such behavior does not project strength -- because our strength comes from our values. It instead projects a corruption of the spirit, and weakness.\"\n\"We have fooled ourselves for long enough that a pivot to governing is right around the corner, a return to civility and stability right behind it. We know better than that.\"\n\"We were not made great as a country by indulging or even exalting our worst impulses, turning against ourselves, glorying in the things which divide us, and calling fake things true and true things fake.\"\nAdmittedly, It would be great for the few dissenting republicans to vote more like their democratic counterparts. But the fact of the matter is that, they are conservatives and that's not the way they see world. They want the ACA gone, they want no gun control, and of course tax cuts for the rich. But what they can do it point out the abnormality of the Trump Crisis. They can defend our democracy, our norms, the office of the president, a free press, the truth. Hopefully, Flake, Corker, and McCain will continue to be loud voices and for the sake of all of us, let's hope they are joined by those who plan to remain in office.",

        "title": "Learning Disabilities",
        "raw_content": "Definition | Assessment | Resources\nStatistics indicate that there are more than 15 million children, adolescents, and adults in America living with Learning Disabilities. Learning disabilities are problems that affect the brain's ability to receive, process, analyze, or store information. These problems can make it difficult for a student to learn as quickly as someone who isn't affected by learning disabilities. There are many kinds of learning disabilities. Certain kinds of learning disabilities can interfere with a person's ability to concentrate or focus and can cause someone's mind to wander too much. Other learning disabilities can make it difficult for a student to read, write, spell, or solve math problems. Most students affected by learning disabilities have more than one kind (with a high comorbidity with ADHD).\nLearning disabilities fall into broad categories based on the four stages of information processing used in learning: input, integration, storage, and output.\nInput: This is the information perceived through the senses, such as visual and auditory perception. Difficulties with visual perception can cause problems with recognizing the shape, position and size of items seen. There can be problems with sequencing, which can relate to deficits with processing time intervals or temporal perception. Difficulties with auditory perception can make it difficult to screen out competing sounds in order to focus on one of them, such as the sound of the teacher's voice. Some children appear to be unable to process tactile input. For example, they may seem insensitive to pain or dislike being touched.\nIntegration: This is the stage during which perceived input is interpreted, categorized, placed in a sequence, or related to previous learning. Students with problems in these areas may be unable to tell a story in the correct sequence, unable to memorize sequences of information such as the days of the week, able to understand a new concept but be unable to generalize it to other areas of learning, or able to learn facts but be unable to put the facts together to see the \"big picture.\" A poor vocabulary may contribute to problems with comprehension.\nStorage: Problems with memory can occur with short-term or working memory, or with long-term memory. Most memory difficulties occur in the area of short-term memory, which can make it difficult to learn new material without many more repetitions than is usual. Difficulties with visual memory can impede learning to spell.\nOutput: Information comes out of the brain either through words, that is, language output, or through muscle activity, such as gesturing, writing or drawing. Difficulties with language output can create problems with spoken language, for example, answering a question on demand, in which one must retrieve information from storage, organize our thoughts, and put the thoughts into words before we speak. It can also cause trouble with written language for the same reasons. Difficulties with motor abilities can cause problems with gross and fine motor skills. People with gross motor difficulties may be clumsy, that is, they may be prone to stumbling, falling, or bumping into things. They may also have trouble running, climbing, or learning to ride a bicycle. People with fine motor difficulties may have trouble buttoning shirts, tying shoelaces, or with handwriting.\nIQ-Achievement Discrepancy\nLearning disabilities are often identified by school psychologists, clinical psychologists, and neuropsychologists through a combination of intelligence testing, academic achievement testing, classroom performance, and social interaction and aptitude. Other areas of assessment may include perception, cognition, memory, attention, and language abilities. The resulting information is used to determine whether a child's academic performance is commensurate with his or her cognitive ability. If a child's cognitive ability is much higher than his or her academic performance, the student is often diagnosed with a learning disability. The DSM-IV and many school systems and government programs diagnose learning disabilities in this way (although the DSM-IV refers to them as Disorder and NOT as disabilities.)Although the discrepancy model has dominated the school system for many years, there has been substantial criticism of this approach among researchers.Recent research has provided little evidence that a discrepancy between formally-measured IQ and achievement is a clear indicator of LD.Furthermore, diagnosing on the basis of a discrepancy does not predict the effectiveness of treatment. Low academic achievers who do not have a discrepancy with IQ (i.e. their IQ scores are also low) appear to benefit from treatment just as much as low academic achievers who do have a discrepancy with IQ (i.e. their IQ scores are higher).\nMuch current research has focused on a treatment-oriented diagnostic process known as response to intervention (RTI). Researcher recommendations for implementing such a model include early screening for all students, placing those students who are having difficulty into research-based early intervention programs, rather than waiting until they meet diagnostic criterion. Their performance can be closely monitored to determine whether increasingly intense intervention results in adequate progress. Those who respond will not require further intervention. Those who do not respond adequately to regular classroom instruction (often called \"Tier 1 instruction\") and a more intensive intervention (often called \"Tier 2\" intervention) are considered \"nonresponders.\" These students can then be referred for further assistance through special education, in which case they are often identified with a learning disability. Some models of RTI include a third tier of intervention before a child is identified as having a learning disability.A primary benefit of such a model is that it would not be necessary to wait for a child to be sufficiently far behind to qualify for assistance.This may enable more children to receive assistance before experiencing significant failure, which may in turn result in fewer children who need intensive and expensive special education services. In the United States, the 2004 reauthorization of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act permitted states and school districts to use RTI as a method of identifying students with learning disabilities. RTI is now the primary means of identification of learning disabilities in Florida.The process does not take into account children's individual neuropsychological factors such as phonological awareness and memory, that can help design instruction. Second, RTI by design takes considerably longer than established techniques, often many months to find an appropriate tier of intervention. Third, it requires a strong intervention program before students can be identified with a learning disability. Lastly, RTI is considered a regular education initiative and is not driven by psychologists, reading specialists, or special educators.\nMany normed assessments can be used in evaluating skills in the primary academic domains: reading, not including word recognition, fluency, and comprehension; mathematics, including computation and problem solving; and written expression, including handwriting, spelling and composition.The most commonly used comprehensive achievement tests include the Woodcock-Johnson III (WJ III), Weschler Individual Achievement Test II (WIAT II), the Wide Range Achievement Test III (WRAT III), and the Stanford Achievement Test\u201310th edition. These tests include measures of many academic domains that are reliable in identifying areas of difficulty.In the reading domain, there are also specialized tests that can be used to obtain details about specific reading deficits. Assessments that measure multiple domains of reading include Gray's Diagnostic Reading Tests\u20132nd edition (GDRT II) and the Stanford Diagnostic Reading Assessment. Assessments that measure reading subskills include the Gray Oral Reading Test IV \u2013 Fourth Edition (GORT IV), Gray Silent Reading Test, Comprehensive Test of Phonological Processing (CTOPP), Tests of Oral Reading and Comprehension Skills (TORCS), Test of Reading Comprehension 3 (TORC-3), Test of Word Reading Efficiency (TOWRE), and the Test of Reading Fluency.The purpose of assessment is to determine what is needed for intervention, which also requires consideration of contextual variables and whether there are comorbid disorders that must also be identified and treated, such as behavioral issues or language delays.\nLD, NOS\nhttp://www.ncld.org/",

So what measures is the industry taking to expedite cost reductions, improve storage technology, and shift the conversation from a \u2018nice to have\u2019 to a \u2018must have\u2019?\nIssue 03-2017 March 15, 2017 Ian Clover\nDespite Elon Musk\u2019s near-ubiquity on the tech pages of most mainstream media, the Tesla entrepreneur has a knack of stealing in on the blind side. His pithy, often cryptic tweets remain the unofficial-yet-official PR channel for the firm, and Tesla\u2019s various product launches \u2013 while slick and polished with a Silicon Valley sheen once they actually begin \u2013 tend to come to the wider world\u2019s attention via a kind of cloak-and-dagger practice that feels at once pass\u00e9 and yet somehow refreshingly contemporary.\nMisdirection is not quite the name of the game, but there can be no denying that Tesla and Musk have picked up where Apple and Jobs left off a few years ago: dazzle and woo with enough conviction, and the world cannot help but be impressed. But whereas Apple consistently delivers quality, the jury remains out on whether Tesla can do likewise.\nIts inaugural Powerwall home battery, launched in April 2015, is a good example. Speak to most storage insiders and they will tend to say the same thing: that they welcome Tesla\u2019s involvement in the industry, the attention is great, but no, they are not worried about the Powerwall stealing their customer base. And why? Because on a technical and cost level, the Powerwall \u2013 the consensus appears to be \u2013 pushes few boundaries.\n\u201cI personally don\u2019t care about Telsa like I did in the past,\u201d Dr. Andreas Piepenbrink, CEO of E3DC, told pv magazine. \u201cTesla is already on the blacklist for German installers. The Powerwall is freezing during winter, and many batteries failed. Tesla has not achieved market volume, and its ignorance of service, quality and installation will not bring further success.\u201d\nWhen Tesla launched its first Powerwall, the company cited an apparently attractive price point of $3,000 for its 7 kWh model, and $3,500 for its 10 kWh model. However, these were basic unit costs, and did not take into account associated balance of systems (BOS), installation, warranty or service costs. In short, while the aesthetically pleasing, affordable-sounding Powerwall grabbed the headlines, its home storage rivals busied themselves with the muckier business of making their batteries more efficient, reliable and financially viable for the average homeowner.\nTo Tesla\u2019s credit, and in what is yet another close parallel to Apple, the firm has announced that the Powerwall 2 will deliver far lower installation costs and greater capacity than the first iteration. But by introducing such an improvement merely two years after the original, is Tesla helping to nurture a \u201cwait and see\u201d approach to home storage that is, in effect, slowing the cost reduction curve and limiting wider uptake?\nIntegrated costs\nAverage home battery cell prices currently stand at around $400/kWh, and while Musk is confident that Tesla\u2019s new U.S. gigafactory can bring that figure closer to $250/kWh (according to Bloomberg New Energy Finance, the 14 kWh Powerwall 2 battery retails for $393/kWh based on a sale price of $5,500 and an estimated installation cost of $1,500), Dr. Piepenbrink remains skeptical that such a price point can be reached within the next three years for stationary home batteries.\nCalculating the true cost of home storage systems is tricky because there are numerous metrics to consider, including retail price of the battery, warranty costs, BOS costs, installation costs and different ROIs based on varying charge/discharge ratios, capacity and live time.\n\u201cBattery prices have a wide range, and different batteries have different applications, so it is difficult to accurately assess costs,\u201d Sam Wilkinson, IHS Markit senior research manager for solar and energy storage told pv magazine. \u201cIt is important to note that there is a big difference between what is driving storage, and what has driven the solar industry. It is now about cost savings, rather than income. Investing in solar a few years ago was like putting money in the bank; today, with storage, it is more about hedging against increased power prices and one\u2019s desire to be less dependent on the grid.\u201d\nWith this in mind, many analysts tend to talk in averages and trends where distributed storage costs are concerned. Helena Teschner, senior expert of politics and markets at the German Energy Storage Association (BVES) says that the average integrated distributed storage cost in Germany is between \u20ac1,200 \u2013 \u20ac1,500/kWh ($1,270 \u2013 $1,580/kWh).\nBloomberg finds that the global average cost for an integrated battery system stands at $1,175/kWh, while in the U.K. \u2013 a market that is fast-becoming a leader in the distributed storage space \u2013 some companies such as Powervault and Moixa are offering price points even lower, closer to $1,050/kWh, according to BNEF.\nIn the leading distributed storage market of Australia, total integrated storage costs have been as high as $1,700/kWh in 2016, according to IHS Markit solar research manager Cormac Gilligan. \u201cLooking ahead, IHS predicts that the battery module costs in kWh will be halved between now and 2020, and similarly the balance of system costs are expected to reduce 10-15% a year.\u201d\nNevertheless, the average payback for homeowners tempted to install a battery storage system is around 10 years, and that \u2013 according to most analysts \u2013 is too long. Until this payback cycle is reduced, distributed storage in the home will remain an emotional rather than economical decision, some fear.\nBattery storage developers need only look askance to their solar module counterparts to know that cost reductions can happen quickly, given the right conditions. The switching on of Tesla\u2019s gigafactory will double the global production of lithium-ion batteries this year, which should serve to expedite cost reductions in this space. But chemistry improvements are predictably calculated; what needs to change, believes Simon Daniel, CEO of British storage firm Moixa, is the whole conversation around distributed storage.\n\u201cThe price of a cell and the price of a system distinction is important,\u201d Daniel told pv magazine. \u201cIn general, prices around the world are ~$1,000/kWh per integrated system. There are a range of additive costs, and so it is integrated systems that are the thing to optimize.\u201d Moixa\u2019s approach has been semi-bespoke in its thinking. Daniel states that the firm\u2019s overarching intention is to drive mass market adoption of home storage. And to do this, he stresses, batteries need to be right-sized, appropriately meeting the needs of the average household.\n\u201cWe think that most of the international battery providers have generally been prosumer and/or early adopter, delivering niche storage products for high-end customers,\u201d said Daniel. \u201cIt is like buying a Bang & Olufsen stereo. There IS a market for it, but it is a limited number of units. Whereas if you want to sell to 100% of the market, these big products are not something that can be offered to all customers.\u201d\nMoixa\u2019s Maslow home battery was designed to be suitable for any kind of household. Offered at 2-3 kW, it is small enough to be installed by a single person, does not take up too much wall space, and is large enough to complement the homeowner\u2019s energy consumption patterns.\n\u201cThe philosophy of our product is both universal mass market, and also to work with utilities,\u201d said Daniel. \u201cIn our eight-million run hours of data and projects that we have conducted for the U.K. government and British utilities, the sweet spot in our view is to power around a third of the day with a battery, which enables the utility to shift energy to a low price or manage an imbalance.\u201d\nThe thinking is to treat batteries as smart, responsive, grid-connected appliances rather than as back-up sources of power or as a means to take the homeowner off the grid. \u201cWhen you take a British home off the grid, you start to put power in the wrong place because you may only go off-grid temporarily. It\u2019s not a very efficient use of technology.\u201d\nMoixa offers its solar+storage kit for \u00a34,995 ($6,200). It comprises a 2 kW PV system, a 2 kWh battery, inverter and all other BOS components. The price also includes VAT and installation costs, and Daniel believes that this package is perfectly pitched to meet the needs of the U.K. homeowner.\n\u201cThe U.K. is not an early adopter market for storage,\u201d Daniel admits. \u201cWhere you have markets that are driven by subsidy like in Germany and California, or Australia with its high electricity prices and network issues, then you have different types of storage that get adopted early. The U.K., however, is currently probably the best scale-up market because it has large amounts of solar installed [BNEF estimates that some 900,000 residential homes have a PV system installed in the U.K.], it has peak energy challenges, and it has plenty of financiers interested in funding new assets.\u201d\nThere is also growing customer awareness in the U.K., despite the current absence of any supportive government scheme for storage. But even here, things are changing. \u201cThe U.K. government has just concluded a consultation exercise on a new storage policy, which has been a long time coming,\u201d stated Daniel. \u201cThe government now seems very cognizant of the opportunity for storage in the U.K. grid system at all levels.\u201d Mooted changes include the abolishment of the double-taxation for storage, as well as a removal of reams of red-tape. \u201cWe are quite optimistic about the policy interventions coming in the Spring,\u201d Daniel adds.\nA smarter battery\nOne of the more tangible policies the British government has outlined, in addition to a recent $11 million injection in funding for the storage sector, is its stated aim to install smart meters in 53 million houses and small businesses by 2020, to gain a better understanding of how energy is consumed nationwide. Some storage insiders, including Powervault managing director Joe Warren, believe that this roll-out will make more people aware of their energy consumption, and could well trigger an uptake in energy storage systems.\nHowever, shifting an entire country\u2019s behavioral patterns is nigh-on impossible, believes Daniel. \u201cStrategies designed to change consumer behavior don\u2019t work. But storage is a viable asset. It is a reliable means of reducing or shifting energy demand without interrupting customers\u2019 behavior, and is therefore very strong as a grid-related demand class.\u201d\nIn Europe, far more than in Australia and parts of the U.S., power grids are driven by domestic peak. For the U.K., residential properties comprise only one-third of the nation\u2019s power consumption annually, but account for two-thirds of peak energy usage. Hence, in Britain and other northern European countries, high grid costs are largely related to domestic energy use, whereas in California, for example, it tends to be the other way around, with commercial and industrial (C&I) consumers pulling the bulk of peak power.\n\u201cOne could argue that the role of behind-the-meter storage in Europe is far greater in opportunity than other countries because the shape of the grid is driven by domestic peak,\u201d said Daniel. By working with this fact, battery providers can help to not only increase distributed storage adoption, but also help to lower battery and grid costs.\nMoixa\u2019s Gridshare is one example of aggregated platforms that are becoming increasingly popular with growing-penetration storage markets. Germany\u2019s sonnen has its own community energy trading platform called the sonnenCommunity, and Sunverge and E3/DC offer similar services. By sharing stored energy among households, such platforms can help to reduce peak demand and create a \u201cflat grid\u201d, shorn of consumption spikes or troughs. As more renewable energy is added across the world, such platforms could become vital in enabling grids to manage increased variability.\n\u201cOne of the reasons that power utilities are going out of business is because they cannot deal with increasing price spikes unless they have storage,\u201d said Daniel. \u201cIn real time, more distributed storage controlled via a virtual power plant platform such as the Moixa Gridshare, can solve these problems, which are only going to get more demanding as more solar is added to the grid.\u201d\nThe growth-cost connection\nSolar PV enjoyed its strongest year ever in 2016, adding more than 70 GW of new capacity. In growing 34.2 GW alone last year, China not only outpaced all other markets, but ran into great difficulties with curtailment. Many parts of the Chinese grid are simply not equipped to handle the amount of solar power being built, and the nation\u2019s woes serve as a warning for other countries keen to scale up solar. That warning being: do not overlook battery storage.\nAnd while utility-scale storage projects in China, the U.S., Australia, Japan, the U.K. and other leading markets are beginning to prove their worth, the efficacy of distributed storage in helping to ease grid load and drive down battery costs cannot be ignored.\nIn Australia, which has the world\u2019s highest penetration of rooftop solar PV per capita, IHS Markit forecasts that the installed base for distributed storage will more than double in 2017, from 100 MW last year to between 250 \u2013 300 MW this year. Germany ended 2016 with 240 MW of behind-the-meter storage installed, and is set to grow 20-30% this year, while the U.S. and U.K. distributed storage bases are on course to double in 2017, from capacities of 140 MW and 50 MW respectively, according to IHS Markit.\nAnd as solar installation figures continue to wane in Europe particularly, there emerges another driver for distributed storage uptake \u2013 as a means of survival for thousands of solar installers. \u201cTo put it bluntly,\u201d said Wilkinson, \u201cthe fact that there are a lot of solar installers trying to keep their jobs makes storage the next logical step for them to rescue their businesses.\u201d\nIn Europe\u2019s leading storage markets of Germany, the U.K. and Italy, storage services are being offered by an increasing proportion of solar PV installers. In Germany, an impressive 77% of installers also offer to fit home batteries, according to recent data by EuPD Research. In the U.K that figure has risen from 12% to 18% in the space of a year, while in Italy it has held steady at 20%.\nAnother sign of the storage sector\u2019s evolution is the gathering clamor for battery makers to prove their eco-credentials. In much the same way solar\u2019s carbon costs have been scrutinized, attention is turning now to battery technology \u2013 assessing the relative energy costs related to mining and manufacturing units.\n\u201cTo a large extent, the import duties on solar components into the EU and U.S. from China should have been carbon-related rather than an import tax because that would have been a fairer reflection of the relative energy costs,\u201d concluded Daniel. \u201cWe will strategically see that kind of thinking in storage once it becomes an integral part of the grid. It\u2019s not yet front-of-mind, but it does relate to how cost-effective a battery really is.\u201d\nFaltering funds\nAn iconic badge for batteries",

An audience has no idea how difficult it is to find that spark but those of us on the inside know when it happens the process AND product will be exponentially better.\n2016 afforded Quad City audiences plenty of opportunities to see these kind of vibrant ensembles and I would like to praise two of these productions that featured a such a stellar team.\nDisclaimer: I was involved in both of these but because of that I was able to have an inside view I can speak to both sides of the curtain. I am sure this will be heralded as one giant humble brag but it\u2019s not about praising ME, it\u2019s praising those around me. I know some insanely talented individuals and I am proud of their work!\nHEDWIG AND THE ANGRY INCH \u2013 The Circa \u201921 Speakeasy\nYou wanna talk about some serious hard working artists? Look no further than the hardworking staff and cast of this underground musical sensation. The cast and staff had less then one week to put together one of the most inspiring and rocking productions of 2016. On tech side, Mike Turczynski washed the Speakeasy stage with an essence of both a seedy nightclub and a 80\u2019s arena concert. With the help of assistant Jessica Blaum, the look was effective and provided a party atmosphere that helped rocked the Speakeasy. Sound designer and engineer Doug Kutzli also added to the night by providing a solid mix of music and vocals and gave this live event a touch of professionalism. On stage, the show featured a solid rock band consisting of Ian Farm on guitar, the incomparable Kyle Jecklin on bass and the effervescent Peter Letendre on drums. Starring in this zany musical was Sara Wegener and Anthony Natarelli, two of the area\u2019s most dependable and finest performers. Wegener and Natarelli (who also played the keys on a few tunes) gave stellar performances, the likes of which I\u2019ve not seen in the area and the likes of which I have not seen from them. Both were unique and full of this fervor that entertained those of us working on the show and those who gave the show a chance. Natarelli, in particular, really impressed me with his flawless characterization and admirable reckless abandon. There was something special about this particular group and my only hope is they all work together again so we can all experience this kind of magic!\nSHEAR MADNESS \u2013 Circa \u201921 Dinner Playhouse\nIt\u2019s no secret that I love to laugh. It\u2019s no secret that I love spontaneity and surprises (in the right context) on stage. It\u2019s also no secret that I absolutely love working with Tom Walljasper and Brad Hauskins. And that\u2019s why Shear Madness was an absolute dream project and showcased what, for me, is the definition of an ensemble.\nSide bar: The first big show I did at Circa was Phil McKinley\u2019s version of A Christmas Carol. The show was directed by none other than Tom Walljasper and featured Mr. Brad Hauskins. I grew up watching and idolizing these local legends and I was getting to work with BOTH of them. I distinctly remember the first day of rehearsal being in awe of the fact Tom would be directing me and that Brad would be acting with me. WHAT. As we began staging something that day I went up to Brad and said something like, \u201cMr. Hauskins, I\u2019m a huge fan, I\u2019m intimated as hell and it\u2019s an honor to share the stage with you.\u201d Flash forward to opening night I got this incredible card from Tom about the work I had done and to never, ever be intimidated by someone I\u2019m working with. He said, \u201cRemember you can hang with these dudes. You\u2019re all the same. More people just know their names.\u201d It was an inspiring start to my journey at Circa \u201921, which continues now working on the current show, \u201cThe Music Man!\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Current: Southwest Chief Brings $180M Annually to NM, CO and KS\nWashington, D.C. - Thwarting plans to replace a portion of Amtrak\u2019s Southwest Chief service with a bus between Albuquerque, NM and Dodge City, KS, saved the economies of New Mexico, Colorado and Kansas from what would have been $180 million in annual losses, according to the findings of a new study by the Rail Passengers Association and the University of Southern Mississippi. Had it gone through, the bus bridge also would have imposed a temporary loss of $135 million in those communities, the study showed.\nAn additional $135 million in \u201cTemporary Direct Economic Losses\u201d would result from the cancelled construction related to Positive Train Control (PTC), a safety technology mandated by the federal government that can remotely monitor and control of train\u2019s speed.\n\u201cThe bus bridge is not a realistic option for Amtrak passengers and surrounding communities,\u201d said Mathews. \u201cIt would create longer travel times and a financial loss for the region. It will be critical for lawmakers to take this study into consideration when developing a surface-transportation bill reauthorization in 2019.\u201d\nThe new study also examined the socio-economic effects of Amtrak implementing a bus bridge. The results are significant as thousands of people who rely on train service for school, work, vacation and even hospital visits would lose easy access.\nThe overall socio-economic effects include:\n32 universities would lose train service;\n47 hospitals would lose train service\n130,000 induced auto trips, diverted onto roads that are four times more dangerous than the national average; and\nBus-bridge communities have the lowest median income ($35K) of all those served on the Chief route.\nWhen the bus bridge proposal surfaced last year, the Rail Passengers Association commissioned a team of researchers from the University of Southern Mississippi\u2019s Trent Lott National Center to determine how life might change for the people who live, work, visit or study in affected towns. The USM team was led by research professor Dr. Yuanyuan Zhang and the work was supported by funds from the generous bequest of the late George McCallum.\nTogether, Rail Passengers and USM built a model to account for factors ranging from direct spending to construction, labor, local tax payments and visitation and tourist spending. The model builds on work done by USM and Transportation for America (T4A), and funded by the Southern Rail Commission (SRC), to quantify the economic benefits of rail service for Gulf Coast communities. Rail Passengers is indebted to T4A and the SRC for their work on the economic impact of passenger trains. Using our advanced model, the Rail Passengers team will be able to expand on this work on a county-by-county basis on any route in the U.S., or even to help assess the potential value of service in an area not yet served by rail.\nThe full study and its findings are available here.",

        "raw_content": "At the end of 1940, at the height of the Nazi empire, 71-year-old Gandhi wrote a letter to Hitler appealing to his better nature and asking him to stop the war. The letter is as futile as it is admirable. Hitler never replies\nM. K. Gandhi January 23, 2019 Updated 13:00 IST\nThat I address you as a friend is no formality. I own no foes. My business in life has been for the past 33 years to enlist the friendship of the whole humanity by befriending mankind, irrespective of race, colour or creed.\nI hope you will have the time and desire to know how a good portion of humanity who have been living under the influence of that doctrine of universal friendship view your action. We have no doubt about your bravery or devotion to your fatherland, nor do we believe that you are the monster described by your opponents. But your own writings and pronouncements and those of your friends and admirers leave no room for doubt that many of your acts are monstrous and unbecoming of human dignity, especially in the estimation of men like me who believe in universal friendliness. Such are your humiliation of Czechoslovakia, the rape of Poland and the swallowing of Denmark. I am aware that your view of life regards such spoliations as virtuous acts. But we have been taught from childhood to regard them as acts degrading humanity. Hence we cannot possibly wish success to your arms.\nBut ours is a unique position. We resist British Imperialism no less than Nazism. If there is a difference, it is in degree. One-fifth of the human race has been brought under the British heel by means that will not bear scrutiny. Our resistance to it does not mean harm to the British people. We seek to convert them, not to defeat them on the battlefield. Ours is an unarmed revolt against the British rule. But whether we convert them or not, we are determined to make their rule impossible by non-violent non-cooperation. It is a method in its nature indefensible. It is based on the knowledge that no spoliator can compass his end without a certain degree of cooperation, willing or compulsory, of the victim. Our rulers may have our land and bodies but not our souls \u2026\nWe know what the British heel mean for us and the non-European races of the world. But we would never wish to end the British rule with German aid. We have found in non-violence a force which, if organized, can without doubt match itself against a combination of all the most violent forces in the world. In non-violent technique, as I have said, there is no such thing as defeat. It is all \u2018do or die\u2019 without killing or hurting. It can be used practically without money and obviously without aid of science or destruction which you have brought to such perfection. It is a marvel to me that you do not see that it is nobody\u2019s monopoly. If not the British, some other power will certainly improve upon your method and beat you with your own weapon. You are leaving no legacy to your people of which they would feel proud. They cannot take pride in a recital of cruel deed, however skillfully planned. I, therefore, appeal to you in the name of humility to stop the war \u2026\nYou know that not long ago I made an appeal to every Briton to accept my method of non-violent resistance. I did it because the British know me as a friend though a rebel. I am a stranger to you and your people. I have not the courage to make to you the appeal I made to every Briton. Not that it would not apply to you with the same force as to the British. But my present proposal is much simpler because much more practical and familiar.\nDuring this season when the hearts of the people of Europe yearn for peace, we have suspended even our own peaceful struggle. Is it too much to ask you to make an effort for peace during a time which may mean nothing to you personally but which must mean much to the millions of Europeans whose dumb cry for peace I hear, for my ears are attended to hearing the dumb millions?\nThis letter was featured in Simon Sebag Montefiore's collection, Written in History: Letters that Changed the World, published by Orion and available at Hachette India.",

And Cow Patti\u2019s artistic director, AnnaMarie Lea can see why. She believes the script strikes the perfect balance between funny and poignant, leaving viewers with some life truths to reflect on once the laughs die down.\nThe main character, John Cummings, lives near the airport of a major Canadian city. He\u2019s a divorced guy aspiring to be a novelist. \u201cHe always says the novel\u2019s all in his head and it\u2019s going to write itself,\u201d said Lea.\nThe first female who shifts John\u2019s perspective is Fay, a self-assured consultant who moves into the apartment next door. \u201cShe\u2019s a very grounded woman, who knows what she wants and knows how to take care of herself,\u201d said Lea.\nAfter Fay departs, Angel moves in. The singer from Calgary is hoping to break into musical theatre. \u201cShe\u2019s a dreamer. In her world, the sun is always shining\u2026 She\u2019s full of hope and determination,\u201d said Lea.\nWhen things don\u2019t quite work out for Angel, along comes Gwen. Lea said, \u201cShe\u2019s a driving instructor from Vancouver, who left her husband and is very upset, sad and on-edge.\u201d\nDebra Hale, of Ontario, will portray all the female roles, opposite Brian Young, as John. (Cow Patti patrons might remember that Young played Leo in last fall\u2019s The Christmas Express).\nLea said a lot of interesting challenges are presenting themselves: Hale is learning to portray three very different women, while Young is \u201cbreaking the fourth wall\u201d and talking directly to the audience.\nLea is having to figure out how to stage some scenes that were written in the 1990s, but are now problematic, given the #MeToo movement and scrutiny of men\u2019s behavior.\nLea decided to make certain lines more light-hearted and less creepy. \u201cWe\u2019re keeping it light\u2026 Our job is to entertain audiences,\u201d she added, by giving them some \u201ca good giggle\u201d and some food for thought.\n\u201cHopefully people will leave feeling positive\u2026 maybe a couple days later they will think, oh yeah, that scene makes sense!\u201d\nThe play (available as dinner or dessert theatre) will run until March 11.

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Innovative Staffing Model Reduces Handoffs, Boosts Provider Satisfaction\nStaffing Grid Improves Satisfaction for Patients and Nurses, Reduces Falls\nED revamp: Team approach to care reduces errors, boosts patient and clinician satisfaction\nOverview of CAH Interpretive Guidelines, CMS Memos, Advance Directives, Emergency Department, Observation & Staffing\nPatient handoffs are a point of risk for medical errors in the emergency setting. For example, during shift changes, an outgoing provider may be stressed and fatigued, heightening the potential that he or she may fail to highlight important information or miscommunicate clinical details about one or more patients. Further, errors of this sort can be compounded if incorrect information is documented and continues to follow a patient as he or she moves through the health system.\nRecognizing the risks to patient safety, many investigators have focused on improving handoff processes to reduce the potential for errors when the care of patients is transferred to new providers. This is valuable work, but what if someone takes steps to address the number of handoffs that occur as well as the stress and fatigue that clinicians often experience toward the end of their shifts?\nInvestigators at Seattle Children\u2019s Hospital have found that by adjusting their staffing model, they can not only reduce the number of handoffs that take place in the ED without increasing attending provider hours, but also boost provider satisfaction. Further, while the staffing model takes work and patience to implement fully, researchers believe that with the proper support and commitment, the approach is flexible enough to work in many other EDs, both adult and pediatric.\nThe opportunity to make a change around the scheduling of providers presented itself to Seattle Children\u2019s leadership when the ED transitioned into new quarters in 2013, explains Hiromi Yoshida, MD, MBA, an emergency attending physician there and a clinical assistant professor of pediatric emergency medicine at the University of Washington School of Medicine. Yoshida was the lead author of an investigation into the development, deployment, and results of the new staffing model.1\n\u201cWe wanted to improve patient care, but at the same time, we also wanted to make the experience better for the physicians that work here,\u201d she says.\nUnder the original staffing model, the ED consisted of three pods with seven shifts that each lasted seven to nine hours. \u201cThe idea was that at the end of your shift, you signed out to the next person who was coming in. Basically, you had to hand off everyone that you had to the next person ... when your shift ended,\u201d Yoshida explains.\nIt is a fairly traditional approach with which many emergency providers likely are familiar. However, this approach places considerable demands on clinicians at the very end of their shifts when they tend to be fatigued. It is at this point when they need to communicate important information about their patients to the next provider who will be taking over their care. In the ED at Seattle Children\u2019s, there were several concerns about this original staffing approach, Yoshida shares.\n\u201cPatient care just kind of stopped for a little bit of time [during the handoffs]. There were delays because people had to wait, and I think that led to frustration from the staff ... patient care wasn\u2019t moving forward. Potentially, that could lead to patient harm,\u201d she says. \u201cAlso, people were working at full capacity throughout their entire shift. We know that people make better decisions toward the beginning of their shifts because decision-fatigue kicks in toward the end.\u201d\nThe new staffing approach, designed by a multidisciplinary team, attempts to ease some of these end-of-shift burdens by collapsing the model into two pods and staggering the arrival of oncoming attending physicians in what creators of the approach describe as waterfall shifts. Under this structure, when a physician first arrives for work, he or she is considered the primary attending provider and begins seeing patients.\n\u201cThe next attending physician arrives three to five hours later, depending on the shift. Then, [he or she] becomes the primary attending,\u201d Yoshida explains.\nAt this point, the provider who arrived first becomes the secondary attending. In this secondary attending role, Yoshida says, this physician can complete work on existing patients. Meanwhile, secondary attendings can work with other physicians on less complex cases, treating and discharging those patients before the end of the secondary attendings\u2019 shifts.\nThe thinking behind this approach is that by the time a provider\u2019s shift ends, there will at least be a plan in place for any patients still under the clinician\u2019s care. These patients are likely less complex because of the way the provider picked up patients. Also, there are likely to be fewer handoffs, Yoshida notes.\n\u201cFor those patients who do need to be handed off, there will be fewer opportunities for miscommunication because [the patients] will hopefully be less complex, less sick,\u201d she says.\nFurther, with a new provider coming on board every few hours, leaders hoped that the new waterfall-style shifts would provide relief and a morale booster to emergency clinicians, Yoshida says.\n\u201cWhen providers come in, they can just start seeing patients. No one has to wait to staff their patients. Everything just keeps moving forward,\u201d she says. \u201cSign-out happens at staggered times. It is not necessarily happening with the whole board [of patients]. You are signing out fewer patients, which is less stressful, I think, for the people doing it.\u201d\nFollowing implementation of the new staffing model in April 2013, a retrospective study by Yoshida and colleagues found that the overlapping, waterfall-shift approach significantly reduced handoffs compared to the previous staffing model. An analysis of nearly 44,000 patient encounters that occurred under the new staffing model showed a 25% reduction in encounters that included patient handoffs from one provider to another.\nResearchers also observed improvements on secondary metrics. For example, while there was a very slight increase in average length of stay under the new staffing model, the left-without-being-seen rate and the 72-hour return rate for patients both decreased slightly. Also, the percentage of charts signed within 72 hours increased from 90.4% to 95.7%.\nInvestigators noted that there was one serious safety event both before the change to the new staffing model and following implementation. However, when surveyed about the new model, physicians and charge nurses reported that, in their view, the new model improved patient safety. Twelve of 18 attending physicians surveyed reported that they \u201cstrongly agreed\u201d that the model improved patient safety, and six attending physicians responded that they \u201cagreed\u201d with the statement.\nSimilarly, among 13 charge nurses who responded to the survey, eight indicated they \u201cstrongly agreed\u201d that the model improved patient safety, and five charge nurses indicated they \u201cagreed\u201d with the statement. The surveyed charge nurses also indicated that the new model improved patient flow in the ED.\nWhen given an opportunity to provide comments about the model on the survey, some physicians voiced strong approval of the waterfall-staffing approach.\n\u201cOne physician commented that the staffing model is the single most important change we made in terms of contributing to job satisfaction. Someone else mentioned that it had definitely increased their longevity [in the job],\u201d Yoshida reports. \u201cI do think the way it is set up will keep experienced physicians here longer and also keep them happier ... having happy, healthy staff leads to better care.\u201d\nWhile the waterfall shifts are firmly ingrained in the ED at Seattle Children\u2019s, the clinicians who championed the model note that others interested in adopting the method should not underestimate the challenges involved with implementing a new approach.\n\u201cThe biggest challenge for us was that people are generally resistant to change, so we did a lot of talking to individuals and groups before the change to get their buy-in,\u201d explains Susan Mazor, MD, an emergency attending physician at Seattle Children\u2019s, an assistant professor in pediatric emergency medicine at the University of Washington School of Medicine, and one of Yoshida\u2019s colleagues on the study of the waterfall handoff structure.\nYoshida echoes these sentiments, noting that it is important to collect feedback from everyone about any proposal. \u201cHowever, remember that sometimes you just have to try it and see how it goes in the spirit of quality improvement,\u201d she says. \u201cEmergency medicine is a great place given that everyone is flexible and willing to pitch in ... for quality improvement work, the ED is a very willing place to do things like this.\u201d\nThe new staffing approach should be able to work in adult and pediatric EDs, but there does need to be enough staff to construct the waterfall shifts.\n\u201cThe plan should be able to be scaled to an ED of any size with more than single coverage,\u201d Mazor offers.\nAs with any staffing model, changes in volume and other factors need to be addressed. The ED at Seattle Children\u2019s has continued to tweak its approach.\n\u201cLast winter was one of the busiest winters we have ever had. As our census grows, we are actually adding a shift during the winter months so we can see more patients,\u201d Yoshida explains, noting that adding more staff is not only for the health of patients but also to maintain the health of ED staff.\nFurther, while the model has been very well received, ED leadership continues to collect feedback and to make improvements as needed, although the approach has proven to be robust and flexible.\n\u201cThere are more physicians during our peak hours. The waterfall starts with only one physician. As the day goes on, more physicians come more frequently ... we try to match the timing based on when we think patients are coming,\u201d Yoshida notes. \u201cNinety percent of the time, the model works well because of the way the waterfall shifts are scheduled. We have the [highest] number of physicians when we know we are going to be the busiest.\u201d\n1. Yoshida H, Rutman LE, Chen J, et al.

Indeed, it was one of the stars of the cult classic novel Absolute Beginners too, with the lead character never far away from his TLR.\nNow the maker Rollei wants to bring it back as the Rolleiflex Instant Kamera, both as nostalgia and as a camera to compete amongst the growing number of instant cameras on the racks right now.\nThe camera keeps its original vintage look and yes, you still look down the top to take the photo. But the inner workings are completely reworked.\nImages are optimised for use with Fujifilm Instax Mini film, rather than being captured on a roll of film for developing. It also has a wide range of apertures from f/5.6 to f/22, accurate focusing from 48 cm \u2018to infinity\u2019 with the cinematic viewfinder and a built-in electric flash with automatic light emission control. So still the twin lens system, but updated for the 21st century.\nWith aperture control, long exposure, multiple exposures and more, you\u2019ve got everything you need to create your own works of art on the go too.\nWant one? Well, you will have to pledge. Yes, this is a Kickstarter project and once it meets the funding target, it gets made. The good news is that it already had hit the target, but you can still pledge.\nThe downside is that it doesn\u2019t come cheap to get your name down for one.

        "title": "Damien Sandow Reveals Moment He Knew He Was Being Released from WWE",
        "raw_content": "Damien Sandow Reveals Moment He Knew He Was Being Released from WWE\nWhen Damien Sandow made it to the WWE roster, many thought he was destined for big things. His alliance with Cody Rhodes as the Rhodes Scholars and his victory at Money in the Bank sought to solidify him on the roster. Except it didn\u2019t.\nThroughout his time in WWE, Sandow was never able to achieve the level of greatness his character would tell fans he was destined for. After leaving the company, he briefly worked as Aron Rex over in Impact Wrestling before he opted to take a break from wrestling to focus on other interests.\nDuring a recent appearance on The Two Man Power Trip of Wrestling podcast, Sandow went into detail about the moment he knew he would, unfortunately, be leaving WWE. He also addressed where the origins of his name came from and the critics of his character in WWE.\nIn a surprising turn of events, Sandow revealed that he had wanted to leave WWE. WWE told him they would see what they could do, but never got back to him, so he was eventually let go. He explains how this happened, and what drove him to make that decision.\n\u201cI had told them that I was. They said we will see what we can do and they never got back to me and just did it with everyone else. Which is fine. Thank you for the extra two weeks. On the inside there is the (WWE) World Title thing and everything but to me my come to Jesus moment (as we say in the South) it was WrestleMania at the Battle Royal. When Miz and I did our thing and I was about to turn on him and everyone knew I was about to turn on him and the way the arena built up, I just took a couple of seconds and looked around to say wow. This is not because anyone wanted this to happen and this reaction of these 80,000 people are having this reaction because they genuinely want to. There are guys that they have tried to push and push and shove down their throats and I don\u2019t think they can ever say that. Have they had more titles? Of course. \u201c\n\u201cThat was all I needed. It kind of shifted something inside me to where (and I don\u2019t want this to come out wrong) but it was like I don\u2019t need to look for justification from anyone anymore. I was given the stage to perform on and I am so grateful that the WWE in particular gave me that as well as anyone who has ever employed me did, however that was like it for me. That was just like there is more to life than this. For the first time I didn\u2019t care about winning a World Championship or being a \u201ctop guy\u201d. That just kind of cemented everything I had worked for and I was okay on the inside and when you are okay on the inside you don\u2019t need some piece of leather and tin to justify that.\u201d\nSandow recalls being told to create a new name for himself after being known as Idol Stevens down in FCW. He based \u201cSandow\u201d off Billy Sandow- a well-known promoter from many years ago. He can\u2019t recall where he got the name \u201cDamien\u201d from, but explains why everything worked so well for him.\n\u201cI was Idol Stevens down there (FCW) and then they said okay you\u2019ve got to come up with a new name. So I\u2019m thinking and I\u2019ve got a bunch of names down and one of which was Sandow. It\u2019s based off of Billy Sandow who was in the \u201cGold Dust Trio\u201d (the promoters back from the turn of the century), so Sandow {whatever} and for Damien, I\u2019ll be really honest with you and it is funny because a lot of guys who would get reassigned names would be like that name is awful and they would complain about it but I was like the person makes the name and the name does not make the person. I always kind of took that and years ago if you told me Damien Sandow that is the stupidest name I\u2019ve ever heard, which is still may be to some people and that is fine. But to me and to a lot of people when you hear Damien Sandow you think \u201cIntellectual Savior\u201d, the robe, the mic and it was kind of a description of the character. I like it but I do not recall where the name Damien came from.\u201d\nFinally, Sandow revealed that the intention with his character- at least in the beginning, was never to be the smart guy. Over time, Dusty Rhodes and WWE ultimately decided to take his character in that direction.\n\u201cThere was one guy who is no longer there and this not a shot at anyone that is currently in the administration and I don\u2019t know who is there anymore administratively but the guy who was kind of the bridge between WWE and FCW came down and looked me in the eye and said; \u201cYou\u2019re too bland\u201d. I remember Dusty just laughing at him and asking do you even know what was going on and do you even watch the show? I thought he was joking with me because I was getting reactions at the show that were very good and I got with Dusty and he said if they think you are bland keep the tights look, get the robe and look like Lou Thesz but we\u2019ll make a presentation out of it and have an old school look coming to the ring and from there you dis-robe and have the pink tights and just be ridiculous. It kind of started evolving and I didn\u2019t know I was going to be a \u201csmart guy\u201d until probably the second day I was there and called up to WWE. That is where I heard that I was going to be the \u201cIntellectual Savior\u201d so I thought well okay I am going to have to expand my vocabulary and start acting smart.\u201d\nDid you enjoy Sandow in WWE?

        "title": "How to ask for more money with confidence",
        "raw_content": "A woman\u2019s guide to getting a pay rise\nEven when we feel we deserve a promotion, a pay rise, or a better starting package, not everyone finds it easy to ask, and this can be especially true of women. Here are some ideas and inspiration to help boost your assertiveness in conversations about money\u2026\nAccording to research by Mintel, women continue to be less confident about asking for a pay rise than men \u2013 half as much, in fact, with 42 per cent of men saying they feel confident about asking for a rise, compared with just 22 per cent of women.\n\u201cWomen have traditionally not been good at asking for pay rises,\u201d says Louise Campbell, Managing Director of Robert Walters Ireland, who links it with a more general confidence issue.\n\u201dIt\u2019s often said that when a woman sees a job description, if she can master nine out of the ten requirements, she\u2019ll focus on the one she\u2019s not sure about, and maybe not apply as a result,\u201d says Louise. \u201cWhereas a man might see the same ad, and feel confident about applying even if he can only tick four out of the ten boxes!\u201d\nSingapore-based Joanne Chua, Robert Walters\u2019 regional client development director for Southeast Asia and Greater China, agrees. \u201cConfidence at work and around asking for more money is an issue,\u201d she says. \u201cWe seem to think we\u2019re never good enough.\u201d\nSo what can you do to increase your confidence in asking for and talking about money? And what steps can you take to improve your chances of a positive outcome?\n\u201cNo one should think less of you for asking,\u201d says Louise Campbell. \u201cAny employer worth their salt will respect your confidence and ambition. And if they don\u2019t, well what does that say about them?\u201d\n\u201dSay to yourself: \u2018What\u2019s the worst that can happen?\u2019\u201d adds Joanne Chua. \u201cThe worst thing is they can say no. But who would you rather be \u2013 someone who tried, or someone who didn\u2019t dare ask?\u201d\n\u201cYou have to go into that meeting the most prepared you can be,\u201d says Louise Campbell. \u201cStart by looking back over the past year and thinking about where you have over-achieved. Look at your job description and think about when you have performed over and above that. Ask: what projects have you been involved in that have been real successes? List the impact you\u2019ve had \u2013 on your team, the business and the bottom line.\u201d\nThis exercise is a good way of reminding yourself why you are worth a rise, but it has other benefits too. \u201cQuite often your manager may simply not be aware of \u2013 or may not recall \u2013 all the things that you\u2019ve achieved, and how you\u2019ve contributed,\u201d says Louise. \u201cSo think back to positive feedback from appraisals, testimonials from co-workers, and positive feedback from clients or other parts of the business.\u201d\nYou need to go to the meeting with a good idea of what you\u2019re worth \u2013 and a good awareness of what you potentially deserve and are currently missing out on. \u201dDon\u2019t negotiate for the sake of it \u2013 just to prove you can,\u201d cautions Joanne Chua. \u201cSize up the opportunity, and benchmark against your peers.\u201d\nRobert Walters\u2019 own regional Salary Surveys can be very useful here. In addition, most industries are supported by publications and bodies which provide regular salary reports. Another way to benchmark your pay is to look at comparable job ads on recruiter sites. Websites like Glassdoor and LinkedIn also provide salary information which can help you get a clear indication of the range for your role and level of experience.\nIt\u2019s a good idea to speak to a recruiter you trust too. Recruiters deal with salary negotiations on a day-to-day basis and can give you guidance on what to ask for.\nWhile it\u2019s important to benchmark your pay accurately, Louise Campbell warns against targeting a specific co-worker\u2019s pay. \u201cIt\u2019s dangerous to get into direct comparisons with colleagues,\u201d she says. \u201cYou don\u2019t want to go storming in with, \u2018Why does Bob get \u00a3500 more than me?!!\u2019 You may not know the whole context, and that sort of approach is likely to put an employer\u2019s back up. Plus, of course, the whole issue is implicit in the conversation anyway.\u201d\n\u201cWomen especially have to learn to use the right language in negotiations and to be confident and direct,\u201d says Louise Campbell. \u201cSo practise till you can do it.\u201d Louise emphasises the need for women to be more assertive in a polite, balanced way, and not apologetic for, or excessively grateful for, receiving something which is effectively their right anyway.\nRole-playing what you want to say, and how, is a great way to grow your confidence for the meeting ahead, she adds. \u201cDiscuss what you\u2019ll say with a partner, or friend(s) you trust. Practise at home being non-confrontational but also calm and confident \u2013 weed out all those expressions like \u2018I\u2019m terribly sorry\u2019 and \u2018I\u2019m so grateful\u2019.\u201d\nJoanne Chua advises finding someone you trust that you can have a heart-to-heart with to discuss your fears and concerns. \u201cFind a mentor who can give you support and guidance,\u201d she says. \u201cTalk to someone who\u2019s been down the same path.\u201d\nAnother way to take the heat out of the conversation is to imagine you\u2019re acting on behalf of a third party, says Joanne Chua. \u201cDon\u2019t make it personal,\u201d she says. \u201cAsk yourself: How much should someone doing that job, sitting in that chair, be on? Given the role and the budget, how much should they be paid?\u201d\nTiming is vital when it comes to broaching the subject of salary. \u201cMake sure you call a timely meeting,\u201d advises Louise Campbell. \u201cIf the annual pay review is in January, and you call the meeting for February, you\u2019re likely to have missed the boat. In such a case November would be better.\u201d\nSimilarly, don\u2019t try to combine your pay issue with another discussion. \u201cCall a specific meeting about your pay \u2013 don\u2019t tack it on to a meeting about anything else,\u201d says Louise. \u201cIt\u2019s very important that things keep to the point and don\u2019t digress.\u201d\n\u00b7 Listen hard: Active listening shows respect and builds trust. Repeat back key points your manager makes: mirroring shows that you appreciate their perspective and take them seriously.\n\u00b7 Acknowledge objections: An objection such as \u201cwe just don\u2019t have the budget\u201d is often used as a way to try and bring the negotiation to an end. But you can keep the conversation going by acknowledging the objection, repeating it back to your manager, and asking additional questions until a compromise or an alternative solution might emerge. These additional questions might include: \u201cDo you know when budget might be made available for this?\u201d or \u201cWhat are your plans for growing and developing the team?\u201d\n\u00b7 Pace yourself: Don\u2019t feel pressured to jump at the first figure that\u2019s put in front of you. Your manager probably has a final figure in mind, and \u2013 like yours \u2013 it\u2019s unlikely to be the first thing that\u2019s offered.\n\u00b7 Own the silence: \u201cDon\u2019t feel the need to fill the silence with chatter and white noise \u2013 ask your question and wait for the answer. Just let the silence fill the room,\u201d advises Louise Campbell. \u201cIt took me years to learn this one, and women often find it harder than men, but it\u2019s a classic sales technique that\u2019s often very powerful.\u201d\n\u00b7 Expand the pie: A negotiation isn\u2019t about bulldozing a perceived opponent into giving you everything you want. It\u2019s about giving to get \u2013 bargaining for what you both want. So if the final figure on the table isn\u2019t quite aligned with what you had in mind, says Louise Campbell, you may be able to negotiate something else that works for you. \u201cIs there something else you can get instead?\u201d she says. \u201cFor example, extra annual leave, study days, training courses, flexible hours, mentoring, an extra percentage on your pension, CPD courses?\u201d\n\u00b7 Think it over: Even if you\u2019re happy with the proposal, always give yourself a night\u2019s sleep to think things over. It\u2019s important not to let the emotion of the moment sway you; it\u2019s always wise to reflect on the offer and ideally discuss it with someone you trust.\nIf you don\u2019t get exactly what you want from the conversation, stay calm and give yourself time to decide on your response.\n\u201dDon\u2019t issue an ultimatum if you don\u2019t get what you want,\u201d says Louise Campbell. \u201cJust buy yourself some time instead \u2013 say, \u2018I\u2019d like to think about that and come back to you\u2019. Don\u2019t get emotional or petty. Stay calm and professional, and take some time to reflect.\u201d\nIn some cases, if you don\u2019t get what you want it may be that the manager simply doesn\u2019t have it in their power to do anything at the current time. \u201cIn such a case, say that you\u2019d like to put in a date for a review,\u201d says Louise. \u201cAsk: when do you think we might be able to move on this? Note the date and follow up accordingly.\u201d\nThinking of moving on? Read our article on how to execute the perfect resignation.",

        "raw_content": "Why would I auction my property?\nIn general, before you decide to put your property up for auction it is worth asking yourself whether or not it is the best route for you, because certain types of properties fair better using this method than others. A prime example of this would be if your property hasn\u2019t been properly looked after and is slightly run down, then it would be better suited being sold at auction as they tend to attract buyers who are looking for a renovation project.\nThere are a number of reasons as to why you would sell your property through auction \u2013 for instance you might want to sell in a hurry and make a quick and uncomplicated sale, or you may be moving abroad. It could be that your property is unique and would be difficult to sell through conventional methods, but going through the auctions could help you identify a fair price as well as promoting it to a number of different buyers.\nAnother reason why you may want to go through an auction is if you had a commercial property for instance, as it is more than likely to generate a lot of interest among buyers. The property market can be quite unfair in terms of the prices which are being touted, but auctions tend to attract buyers who understand the value of a property and pay a price which reflects its true value.\nWhen it comes to selling your property at auction it can be a very worthwhile experience, but as with most ventures into the property market it can also be very troublesome and without the right help you could find that you are losing out on profit. Fortunately there are ways around this thanks to the team here at Roger Hannah Auctions, as we are experts in property auctions as we even have our own dedicated commercial auction in the North West and Manchester area.

        "raw_content": "Ensuring Fair Child Support\nAt Rombro & Associates, we represent parents in a broad range of child support matters, including:\nEstablishing child support orders\nWhether you want to make sure you are receiving the right amount or paying the right amount, the child support attorneys at our Manhattan Beach office are committed to guiding you through this complex area of the law.\nChild support can cover a wide range of basic necessities, from food and housing to school supplies.\nWhat Child Support Covers in California\nThe intent of child support is to make certain that a child of divorced or separated parents has all they need to continue living a healthy life. While parents in a two-parent household generally split the costs of care, a parent with primary custody of a child is often burdened most of the expenses. Child support payments are intended to counteract such imbalances so that one parent is not left to shoulder the financial burden on their own.\nTo begin with, child support covers necessities such as shelter, clothing, food, and healthcare. Payments are also used to offset education expenses, which may include the cost of tuition, books, and other materials.\nBeyond the basics, child support payments may also include childcare and travel or transportation expenses, if both parents are employed. Additionally, access to basic entertainment, such as computers and television, and recreational activities may also be covered.\nBoth parents have an obligation to support their minor children financially. Child support generally lasts until the child turns 18, but can continue until the child turns 19 in certain circumstances or on into adulthood if the child is disabled and not self-supporting. Parents may agree to be bound by an order providing support to a child after support would otherwise terminate. For example, the parties may agree to provide funding for a child's college education.\nIn California, child support is calculated according to a guideline or formula based on factors such as:\nHow much time the children spend with each parent\nMedical, health insurance and certain other expenses\nThe parents can also agree on a different amount not based on the guideline. The court will generally approve the parents' plan if it is in the best interest of the child and made with full knowledge of child support rights and the amount set by the guideline.\nHow Child Support is Enforced in California\nFailure to pay child support can have serious consequences. Supposing a parent is able to pay child support but chooses not to, they can be found in contempt of court. This serious offense could potentially lead to jail time. Other consequences include a plummeting credit score, liens on their property, suspension of driver and professional licenses, and redirection of tax refunds or disability benefits to child support.\nSometimes child support agreements can go too far in attempting to shift expenses to the non-custodial parent.\nHowever, if a parent is simply unable to pay because of a change in circumstances, they can usually apply to the court to modify their order to something more manageable.\nIf you are owed child support and are not receiving it, you can visit your local child support agency with a copy of the support order in hand. If the non-custodial parent is purposefully not paying, the agency can use a number of methods to ensure that they face negative consequences until they do so. In most cases, criminal charges for contempt of court are usually only used as a last ditch effort if all else has failed.\nWhat You Can Do if You Feel Your Child Support Agreement is Unfair\nUnfortunately, sometimes child support agreements can go too far in attempting to shift expenses to the non-custodial parent. It is common for a parent who is paying child support to be left with a disproportionate amount of payments. If you feel your child support agreement is imbalanced, our team can address this issue in a number of ways:\nEvaluating Applicable California State Laws: California child support laws are complex and you need a legal team on your side who knows them inside and out. Our family law attorneys will evaluate relevant state laws to ensure you do not pay more than is required.\nEnsuring You Are Credited for Deductions: You may be entitled to sizable deductions and our child support attorneys are well-versed in spotting them. Vacations and holidays, for example, can have a big impact but are not always accurately included. We will calculate your potential deductions to make sure you are not overpaying.\nKeeping an Open Line of Communication with the Child Support Agency: By keeping an open line of communication with the child support agency, we can help you avoid any child support issues from spiraling out of control.\nThe factors that determine child support payments can be numerous and complex. Our team of family law attorneys can help you better understand the complexities of the guideline formula and ensure that you are paying or receiving the correct amount.\nHiring Legal Counsel Is Critical\nOur child support attorneys have the knowledge of California child support laws to walk you through the guideline or assist you in collecting what you are due. Contact us online or by telephone at (310) 545-1900 to arrange a consultation with a professional.",

But the other world regions, like the BRICS or the Global South are being excluded from the trade negotiations and hardly get attention in the debates around TTIP. This trend is shifting today: because TTIP as an \u201ceconomic Nato\u201d is putting the rise of the BRICS, especially China and Russia, into relation with a looming \u201cdescent of Europe\u201d. According to the negotiating partners the economic rise of the BRICS has to be prevented. But at what price?\nThis booklet delivers facts and arguments why TTIP is threat not only for the EU and the US, but for the whole world. Ultimately TTIP would serve as an instrument to the economic and political elites of the West to maintain their hegemonic power and dominance. The price is to be paid by the people in the Global North as well as in the Global South.

Winston Churchill faced many challenges in both his military endeavors and in maintaining the support of the public. But in 1942, the US joined the war\u2014and changed the game. This collection of Churchill\u2019s wartime speeches from 1942 shows a renewed sense of hope and optimism.\n1942 was an important turning point in World War II. Britain and its allies had faced considerable challenges thus far. Beset by bombings and devastated by personal loss and the restrictions of war, the British public was losing patience with the war effort-and their prime minister. Churchill faced an uphill battle in his military efforts as well as in gathering political and public support for the struggle to come.\nBut when the US joined the war, at the end of 1941, the tides turned. Churchill has been quoted as saying he felt certain of the Allied victory with the US on his side-and his speeches reflect a renewed sense of hope and conviction. This collection of wartime speeches from 1942 provides an interesting historical commentary on this volatile time in history-from the point of view of one of its most prominent wartime leaders.",

        "raw_content": "One-to-One Computer Program\nThe school commenced a 1:1 parent funded computer program in 2014, which required parents of Year 8 and Year 9 students to provide a notebook computer for their child. The integration of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) into learning programs has seen the education landscape change markedly at the school over the past few years. Many teachers now rely on students\u2019 access to a notebook computer as part of the learning program, and this reliance will continue to grow. Students now consider their own notebook computer to be indispensable in the classroom.\nParents of Year 7s and new students in 2019 are requested to provide a notebook computer or tablet for their child. The device needs to have a long battery life, be light and portable (maximum 14\u201d screen), and it needs to be practical to use in the classroom. In 2018, most students used an Apple MacBook Air 11\u201d model. Outright purchase of the base model 11\u201d MacBook Air from a shop was $1498, or it can be purchased as part of a $1546 deal available through Winthrop Australia which will also include an extended three year Applecare warranty and a STM Ace vertical slipcase. Winthrop has recently added few windows notebooks to their range and details of these devices can be found in the link below. The school will handle your warranty or insurance claims if it is purchased from Winthrop. Details of the offers available through Winthrop Australia can be viewed at https://sales.winaust.com.au/shop/rossmoyneshs2018\nIf you are considering to buy a HP Notebook computer you can view their range at www.hpshopping.com.au/rossmoynebyod\nEvery notebook purchased through HP BYOD portal includes free delivery and comes with three years onsite warranty. Finance option is available with 0%interest for up to 24 months.\nIt is recommended parents do their own research. We have created a web page listing various devices at different price points at 2019 Computer Devices\nThis page lists laptops and tablets which have been well reviewed and which we think would work well as a school device. We have also included on the page other information which you may find useful. We highly recommend that you also purchase a protective case for your child\u2019s device. To provide the best protection against the pressure of heavy items in the school bag, which can crack the screen, it should be a hard case, or at least well padded. We also recommend insurance. Insurance can be quite cheap if you already have home and contents insurance. You need to phone your insurance company and have it added to your policy as an additional item. If you are buying a MacBook or Notebook computer using Winthrop Australia or HP, please do check for optional insurance. You may get a much better deal than this with your home insurance.\nThis is really up to you. Although most parents since 2016 purchased the base 11\u201d MacBook Air, prices have increased significantly since then, and experience now shows that a wide range of devices work well. If you want to buy a MacBook, you might want to consider the 13\u201d Air for an extra $129, which has a larger screen and longer battery life. You do not need to spend a great deal of money. Do your own research, and have a look at our page at:\n2019 Computer Devices\nIf we already have a notebook computer at home, can my child use this?\nYour device will need to have a good battery life and not be too large or heavy. You child is welcome to bring it to school and try it out. Some students are using Windows computers, tablets (e.g. iPad, Surface) and Chromebooks.\nWhat happens if there is a warranty issue or a repair is needed on the MacBook we purchased from Winthrop Computers?\nYou can leave it at the school where it will be picked up and handled by Winthrop. If there is a charge for repairs not covered under warranty, you will need to arrange this with Winthrop Computers. If you did not buy your computer from Winthrop, you will need to make your own arrangements.\nCan my child use an iPad or tablet?\nStudents will need to be able to use a keyboard, and they will probably find a screen keyboard too slow. If you want to use a tablet, consider a case with an integrated keyboard. Your child may find the screen too small, but this is up to you. Apple, Android and Windows tablets should all connect to our network.\nWill I need to pay for extra software?\nMost work in the classroom is web based, and there are usually no requirements to install extra software. You will need an office suite (word processing, spreadsheet, presentation, etc.). Apple iWork is included for free with the MacBooks and there are a lot of free suites, including LibreOffice and Google Docs. Google Docs has the advantage of storing files in the cloud. Microsoft Office is not necessary, but some students are familiar with this and prefer to pay extra for it. When submitting work to their teachers online, students need to export their documents as a PDF, which can be done by any of these suites.\nHow much support can the school provide for my child\u2019s device?\nWe will help getting it connected to the school network. The IT office at the school is available for students to visit with any problems, but we can\u2019t help with hardware issues.\nWhat if I cannot afford to purchase a notebook computer for my child?\nFor those who cannot at present afford to purchase their child a computer, we may have older MacBooks available for loan from the school, so that your child will not be disadvantaged in the classroom. A school loan depends on your circumstances. Contact the school for more information. There are low cost alternatives (under $400) listed at: 2019 Computer Devices\nHow often are student computers used in school?\nExperience since the program began shows that students are quick to adopt new technology, and most are competent users of their computers and eager to use them for learning. It is difficult to answer just how much your child will use their notebook in the classroom, as it will vary. School staff need training and support in developing ways to integrate the notebooks effectively into their learning programs. This change has taken place at a steady pace over the last few years, and many teachers love the opportunities the student notebooks have opened up in the classroom, but it is occurring at an uneven pace within a large staff. We are committed to making this a positive experience, and getting the best possible benefit from the 1:1 program.\nMore specifically, some of the ways the student computers are used include:\nMany staff now place learning materials on Moodle, our online learning platform. Plagiarism checking is also performed when students upload their work using Turnitin via their Moodle class.\nGovernment run assessments, such as NAPLAN and OLNA, are increasingly being conducted online, and require student computers for completion. It is possible that by the time your child completes his or her ATAR exams in Year 12, they will be completed using a computer.\nIn Mathematics, printed texts have been replaced by Pearson interactive eBooks and MathSpace.\nIn the Social Sciences, the students\u2019 computers are used for research, interactive online activities (such as Kahoot) and for completion of assignments.\nMany science teachers now have their resources on Moodle, and also regularly engage in online simulations and research.\nEnglish teachers are increasingly using Moodle, and students rely on their computers for much of their research. English also use English Perfect online as a valuable learning resource.\nAny questions should be directed to the school ICT Manager:\nSujit Pottayil Kuttappan\nSujit.PottayilKuttappan @education.wa.edu.au\nor the school Administration Manager:\nMark Southon\nmark.southon@education.wa.edu.au\nPlease note: Prices are subject to change\nSchool Computer Notebook / BYOT Program\nStudents involved in the school\u2019s 1:1 Computer Notebook or BYOT (Bring Your Own Technology) Program are required to sign the Acceptable Use Policy and comply with all aspects of the policy.

In the aftermath of an unspeakable attack, Police Sergeant Tommy Saunders (Mark Wahlberg) joins courageous survivors, first responders and investigators in a race against the clock to hunt down the bombers before they strike again. Weaving together the stories of Special Agent Richard DesLauriers (Kevin Bacon), Police Commissioner Ed Davis (John Goodman), Sergeant Jeffrey Pugliese (J.K. Simmons) and nurse Carol Saunders (Michelle Monaghan) this visceral and unflinching chronicle captures the suspense of one of the most sophisticated manhunts in law enforcement history and celebrates the strength of the people of Boston.\nR (for violence, realistically graphic injury images, language throughout and some drug use)\nMatt Cook, Peter Berg, Joshua Zetumer\nas Sgt. Tommy Saunders\nas Sgt. Jeffrey Pugliese\nas Ed Davis\nas Carol Saunders\nas Richard DesLauriers\nas Mayor Thomas Menino\nas Dzhokhar Tsarnaev\nas Officer Sean Collier\nNews & Interviews for Patriots Day\nCritic Reviews for Patriots Day\nThe strong narrative pulse overrides the irritation of Wahlberg's blue-collar alpha-saint.\n\"Patriots Day\" touches on vast phenomena, looking at an event that packs a huge amount of modern mental space in its crisp narrative confines. That's why its blandly reductive simplicity is all the more unfortunate.\nA film content with the charming, if chuckleheaded, cartoon of the Boston local that Wahlberg has regularly inhabited throughout his career.\nJohn Swansburg\nThe film, which swivels frantically between first responders, survivors, and investigators, has a percussive force.\nAn efficient and intense thriller that mines the best tropes of the chase genre.\nIt's a story about one city, but it honors the essence of America, and it shows that when the going gets rough, we're all Boston Strong.\nPatriots Day is not without its flaws, but considering the events depicted took place not even four years ago, Berg, Wahlberg and the rest have done this story as much justice as possible.\nWorthy though the film is in reproducing the events, its protagonists deserved to be better served.\nThis may not the film we need right now, but perhaps the only one we deserve.\nBerg's film packs a punch with its extravagantly directed action and gruelling tension, but it often feels empty as it fails to fully grasp its subject matter in the awkwardly written screenplay.\nBerg, like Bay before him, uses patriotism as an easy crutch to heighten the emotionality of scenes.\nWhen Patriots Day is working at its best it is an intense thriller, but too bad those moments of intensity are in service of an unsettling glorification of violence as retribution.\nAudience Reviews for Patriots Day\nIntense, exciting and terrifying account of the 2013 Boston Marathon bombing and the hunt for the culprits in the days after. Even though the film sticks to the most important characters involved and follows events almost in the style of a documentary it does pack quite the emotional punch. Great cast and direction makes for a pretty emotional ride. Of course you gotta have the message of Bostonian unity in the end, but given the circumstances, that's quite alright.\nDespite less-than-compelling performances and a lack of artistic perspective, \"Patriot's Day\" packs an emotional punch on a visceral level. I found the time spent watching the film was rewarding.\nBerg & Wahlberg, once more, help shed light on a dark time in history. Patriots Day does well in depicting evenly the tragedy and drama behind the events from April 2013 while also highlighting the heart and captivating courage of those who were victims and those who responded; sending a heartfelt and respectful acknowledgment in the process. 4.5/5\nTrue stories have been around on the big screen for a very long time. Some do poor job and overdo the sappiness of the events and others an impeccable job in capturing the essence of the story. Patriots Day represents the latter. While it's very hard to say you loved a film like this, I can say in confidence that this is a great film that pays tribute to this very touchy event. When I first heard this film was in development, I found myself worried, especially with the notion of Peter Berg directing. At one point, this career felt as though it was going in the route of Michael Bay, especially when he helmed the laughable Battleship. When Lone Survivor was unleashed unto the world, followed by 2016's Deepwater Horizon, it was clear that he had found his niche. Patriots Day is just as effective as it needs to be. On April 15th, 2013, two men entered the crowds surrounding the Boston Marathon. Setting off multiple bombs, resulting in death and dismemberment, along with emotional scars, this truly was an incredibly sad moment in recent history. Displaying these events on screen must have been very hard to plan out, but they made the proper decisions in the end. Cutting back and forth between the film, recreated security footage, and actual security footage of the event, the emotion was cranked up to eleven. Most films choose to have overblown action set pieces to make the true event more extravagant for the cinema, but Patriots Day is very classy about what is displayed on screen. There are certain things that the news chooses to leave out and while I did follow the news when this tragic event took place, I don't remember hearing about the aftermath, except for the fact that they found the two men. I had no idea that they shot police officers and threatened the lives of innocent civilians along the way. It should come as no surprise, given the fact that these men have to be crazy in general to even start something like this, but there were quite a few moments throughout this film that I wasn't expecting. Treating this story with care, this film slowly goes through every motion of the five day span that it took to capture these men. I highly commend the way this film showcased everything. When exploring such a tragic incident, a film needs to be able to keep its audience at ease. No, I'm pretty positive that there was no amount of comedy circling this event, but as far as films go, a bit of levity is needed, so it doesn't become overly depressing. Hiring actors and actresses like Mark Wahlberg, John Goodman, J.K. Simmons, Kevin Bacon, and Michelle Monaghan certifies that the film is going to everything it can to deliver this story in a caring way. Having said that, them also being the talent cast that they are, are able to provide a few chuckles for the audience, while still having their eyes well up with sadness. The emotion in Patriots Day is balanced wonderfully. In the end, Patriots Day is a very solid film that depicts the tragic events of the 2013 Boston Marathon bombings in a very classy way. Very much like Deepwater Horizon, it very precisely goes through the motions of the event and makes you care about each and every character. As far as story, there is no conceivable way that it can lack in story, due to the nature of the premise at hand, but it does feel more like a dramatization at time, rather than a Hollywood picture. There is something very stagey about this film that I just can't get out of my head. That bothered me throughout the duration, but there is no denying that the performers took this material very seriously and Peter Berg took great care in his direction here. Patriots Day is just about as perfect as you can get in putting this particular story on the big screen. Whether you are aware of the terrorism that went on this day in history or not, this is an important picture that I definitely recommend checking out. Very, very well made.\nPatriots Day Quotes",

Yet relatively little of that literature is available in English, despite an upsurge of interest in the Lully-Rameau period during the past two decades. This book presents a wide-ranging and informative picture of the organization and evolution of French Baroque opera, its aims and aspirations, its strengths and weaknesses. Drawing on official documents, theoretical writings, letters, diaries, dictionary entries, contemporary reviews and commentaries, it provides an often entertaining insight into Lully\u2019s once-proud Royal Academy of Music and the colourful characters who surrounded it. The translated passages are set in context, and readers are directed to further scholarly and critical writings in English.\nReaders will find this new, updated edition easier to use with its revised and expanded translations, supplementary explanatory content and new illustrations.\n\"These translations by Wood and Sadler have permanent value.

        "raw_content": "Interior of the domes of the Blue Mosque, Istanbul\nTurkish treasures: exploring Istanbul with Friends of the RA\nBy Courtney Cooke\nThe RA\u2019s Courtney Cooke joins one of our Worldwide Art Tours, created specially by our travel partner Cox & Kings for Friends of the RA.\nIstanbul, the former \u2018Eastern Rome\u2019, or medieval city of Constantinople, has always been one of my dream destinations, so when I was offered the opportunity to travel there with a group of Friends of the RA, I jumped at the chance.\nCox & Kings tours are well known for the high quality of their lecturers and this trip was no exception. Our group was guided through the maze of history by Dr William Taylor (an Anglican priest, chairman of the Anglican and Eastern Churches Association, and writer on the Islamic world and Orthodox churches), as well as one of the most experienced local guides in Istanbul.\nExamining Istanbul\u2019s Ottoman and Byzantine treasures, Dr Taylor gave a fascinating overview of the city\u2019s turbulent past, its ideological conflicts, and how these influenced religious art and architecture. From the miniscule medieval St. Mary of the Mongols Church, which lay nestled in a tiny outcrop high above the city, and the unrivalled mosaic work at the church of St. Saviour at Chora, to the astonishing 6th century architectural masterpiece Hagia Sophia, the destinations we visited were expertly chosen to reflect this ever-changing city. Visiting a mix of devotional buildings allowed us to trace the development of religious art, and the influences that led to the unique mixture of Eastern and Western art so evident in this fascinating city.\nInterior of the Hagia Sophia, Istanbul\nView from the Prince's Isles ferry\nFloating mosque window, Istanbul\nAs Istanbul is surrounded by sea, a boat ride to the charming Princes\u2019 Isles helped our group to fully appreciate the city\u2019s position, surrounded by the Sea of Marmara. The monasteries and churches housed in the island\u2019s peaks are only reachable by horse and cart, and thanks to Dr Taylor, our group had the privilege of privately visiting the Church of St. Nikolaos and the Greek Orthodox Seminary, whose status as a seminary has been under threat from the Turkish government.\nIt is simply impossible to go to Istanbul and not visit the magnificent Topkapi Palace, the monument to the Ottoman sultans, built by Mehmet II between 1459 and 1465. The treasury is home to a wealth of glittering jewels that rival the \u2018Arabian Nights\u2019, and the palace also houses an equally priceless complex dedicated to the display of relics belonging to the prophet Muhammad, including his tooth, beard and holy mantle, which I felt awed and humbled by.\nBut the undoubted highlight of the trip was a visit to Hagia Sophia at night \u2013 a truly breathtaking experience. Arranged exclusively for Cox & Kings, our group had the opportunity to explore one of the world\u2019s greatest triumphs of art and architecture on a completely private basis. Often mistaken for a mosque, Hagia Sophia was originally built as an Orthodox church, and has been used by worshippers of many religions throughout its 1500-year history. It is now a dedicated museum. Standing under the cupola and hearing the echo of my own voice around me was an extremely special moment.\nWhat I will take from my trip is just how well Istanbul wears its history. Shoppers still throng the spice market, worshippers still pray to Allah in the Blue Mosque, the Grand Bazaar\u2019s stall-holders and customers continue to haggle. Our final night\u2019s Ottoman banquet (purportedly the menu eaten at the circumcision ceremony of the son of Sultan Mehmet II) gave me a chance to celebrate all that I had discovered. We toasted our guides, and drank heartily to Istanbul\u2019s vibrant future.\nTo find out more about the RA\u2019s worldwide art tours, visit the Cox & Kings website.\nCourtney Cooke is the RA\u2019s Friends Events Coordinator.\nHow to read it: Constable\u2019s Flatford Mill study\nPainted quickly to develop ideas before the final work, this is one of 16 oil sketches by John Constable RA in our collection.

Scholars have said that the play probably belongs to the months where the theatres were reopened in spring 1610, after a long period of closure due to the plague.\nThe emphasis of Wales in the play also suggests it was written around the time Henry Stuart was given the title of Prince of Wales in 1610. It was printed in the First Folio of 1623 where it was classified as a tragedy.\nThere are several sources for the various elements of Cymbeline's complex plot. The storyline involving Cymbeline is derived from a rudimentary outline in Holinshed's Chronicles (1587).\nThe tale about a wager on a wife's chastity goes back to Boccaccio's Decameron in a story called Frederyke of Jennen, while many other elements of the play can be found in folk and fairy tales.",

        "raw_content": "Del Toro: The Shape of Water relates to today \"perfectly\"\nUpdated / Thursday, 8 Feb 2018 12:46\nDirector Guillermo del Toro has told RT\u00c9 Entertainment that his new Cold War fantasy movie, The Shape of Water, relates to today \"perfectly\".\nThe 53-year-old Mexican film director says his Oscar-buzzed fantasy film, which takes place during the Space Race and when Kennedy was in the White House, and also at a time when \"America believes it was great\" is very much a movie for right now.\nSpeaking to RT\u00c9 Entertainment, he said: \"The movie is about today. It is not about \u201962 but '62 relates to today perfectly.\nSally Hawkins plays a cleaner who falls in love with a fish-man (Doug Jones)\n\"The same problems we have today were real in \u201962 - Cold War, racism, sexism, the need for marginalising people that are \u2018different\u2019 and the violence against them - all of that was alive then.\n\"It was a time when America believes it was great but it was a hollow dream because it was post-war and everybody was in an economic boom, and the Space Race was on, and Kennedy was in the White House, and cars and suburban homes and all of that.\n\"But if you were a minority, you didn\u2019t have it very easy. If you were not a man, a WASP and a heterosexual man, then things were very different,\" he added.\nThe Shape of Water, which centres on a cleaner (Sally Hawkins) who falls in love with a fish-man (Doug Jones) in a covert U.S. research laboratory, dominated this year's Oscar nods with an impressive 13 nominations.\ndel Toro admits the concept of the film was floating around his head since he was a young boy, and says it is a project that he felt personally attached to.\n\"This movie is one of those that doesn't happen all the time. I've been doing this for 25 years and that's happened a few times, that you have a clarity that you need to make the movie.\"\n\"It\u2019s not that you need the movie, the movie needs you\".\nThe Shape of Water hits cinemas nationwide on February 16th.\nRead our five-star review here.",

        "raw_content": "I have been a practicing surgeon for the past 37 years\u2014so believe me\u2014I know how to pick a good surgeon. I chose Dr. Carman to perform my procedure for several reasons.\nFirst, Dr. Carman is caring and genuinely interested in his patients and in doing the right thing\u2014and doing it well. He is, as we physicians know him, the \u201cDoctor\u2019s Doctor.\u201d We trust him because we understand he cares; because he is genuine; and because we all know he will tell us the truth and explain what can (and should) be done, and what cannot (and should not) be done. Dr. Carman\u2019s honesty propels his dedication to quality patient care.\nSecond, because of Dr. Carman\u2019s training in surgery and specifically in plastic and reconstructive surgery, along with his years of experience and excellent documented outcomes, he has perfected his art of hair restoration surgery. Dr. Carman performs surgery with a degree of quality and dedication that I, as a fellow surgeon, can truly appreciate.\nThird, as all truly excellent surgeons know, you need a first rate team to be the best\u2014surgery is a team effort mastering hundreds of details and steps. Dr. Carman, through Pam, Rebecca, Monica, Lisa, Judy and Diana has assembled a team equally dedicated to patient care thus assuring consistent results they each can truly be proud of.\nFinally, Dr. Carman is simply a nice guy. He is real and you can talk to him. You can honesty express your interests and concerns to him. Dr. Carman has time for his patients\u2014because he is a caring individual. If you don\u2019t feel comfortable with your doctor, and wouldn\u2019t want to spend time with him\u2014would you want him operating on you?\nIn summary, I was extremely pleased and fortunate to have selected Dr. Carman as my surgeon for my hair restoration procedure. As a physician, and a patient, I continue to recommend Dr. Carman with the utmost confidence that he is a truly caring, dedicated, top\u2013tier professional who will deliver the highest quality surgical results possible for each and every one of his patients.\nHello Dr. Carman, Pam, and all of the lady hair restoration technicians;\nI just visited my dermatologist here who sends you her compliments stating that she has never before seen such an excellent hair restoration as the one you did for me,\nand she has seen many. My hair is growing like a weed (from the second procedure) and it has only been five months.\nDr Carman and Staff;\nOnce again, thank you for your excellent work that you have done for me, I really appreciate it! I can say this because I\u2019ve had three other procedures done, and nothing compares with your expertise, professionalism, and just feeling very comfortable with the whole experience. You\u2019re the best!!",

Photo: Marco Gros\nDev Patel might have stumbled onto acting \u2013 he joined the drama club at school to avoid trouble and channel his energy elsewhere \u2013 but he was destined to become huge on the silver screen.\nThe London-born Patel, of Indian descent, meets me in Geneva during Salon International de la Haute Horlogerie, where he is IWC\u2019s celebrity guest. He shows up for our interview in a casual grey T-shirt and khaki pants.\nCharming and down to earth, a smiling Patel offers me a glass of water. However, when he is asked how he got into acting, the 27-year-old star looks serious.\nReese Witherspoon\u2019s surprising secret weapon? Her Southern charm\n\u201cI\u2019m drawn to films that are like fables,\u201d says Patel, soft-spoken yet firm. \u201cI think that\u2019s what we go into cinemas for. In a way, it\u2019s catharsis.\u201d\nHis love for films started at an early age. Will Smith\u2019s heart-warming drama Pursuit of Happyness (2006) inspired him to pursue acting professionally.\nPatel also recalls sneaking out from his bedroom when he was a child to watch Bruce Lee\u2019s 1973 action film Enter the Dragon on TV.\n\u201cAs a child and a British Indian, I could really relate to Asian actors who were strong leading men [in cinema].\u201d\nYoung Patel fell in love with acting when he was cast by his school\u2019s drama club to play the lead in Shakespeare\u2019s Twelfth Night. \u201cFrom that day on, everyone knew me as the drama guy in school,\u201d he says.\nPatel\u2019s acting talent shone through when his mother spotted a casting ad in the newspaper and landed him the role of Anwar in teen television drama series Skins in 2006.\nThe first series was nominated for best drama series at the 2008 BAFTA Television Awards and the second series won the Philips Audience Award at BAFTA the year after. Apart from Skins, Patel returned to TV in the 2012 HBO television series The Newsroom.\nCFDA Awards 2017: Raf Simons wins double fashion honours\nIt was his performance in Skins that caught the attention of Boyle, who cast Patel in Slumdog Millionaire, which turned out to be the career breakthrough for him.\nToday, Patel is following the footsteps of those who inspired him and portraying characters in modern-day fables \u2013 from the adopted son who embarks on a journey to search for his roots in Lion and the righteous journalist who refuses to ignore injustice in The Newsroom to the merry-go-round fellow in The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel, and the rags-to-riches genius in Slumdog Millionaire .\nHis most recent project, Hotel Mumbai, recounts the 2008 terrorist attacks by Islamic radicals which killed 160 people. The film centres on the hotel and the different people passing through the hotel. Patel is also one of the producers of the film, which co-stars Armie Hammer.\n\u201cIt\u2019s so different to what I\u2019ve done before in terms of tone and intention,\u201d he says. \u201cWhen people are stuck in this horrendous incident, it shows you who the real heroes are and all the societal structures mean nothing. You just have to survive.\u201d\nWhy Michelle Yeoh, Daniel Wu, and other Asian film actors are hitting small screens\nProducing the film has also given Patel new perspective in building the character. \u201cI get to shape the character very differently than what was on the [script],\u201d he says.\nBuilding a character, Patel says, \u201cstarts off with lots of stress and an unhealthy dose of anxiety\u201d.\n\u201cIt takes a long time for me to understand the [script],\u201d he adds. \u201cIt takes [repeated attempts] and all of a sudden I\u2019ll find the way I want to say something, after saying it 100 times. Then when I get to the set, it all gets thrown out of the window. That\u2019s the process of acting for me \u2013 I prepare to be unprepared.\u201d\nI\u2019m drawn to films that are like fables. I think that\u2019s what we go into cinemas for. In a way, it\u2019s catharsis\nTo prepare for his role in Lion, Patel took eight months to get into character and hone his Australian accent. The award-winning film follows Saroo (played by Patel) on a homecoming journey to India after a 25-year separation from his family. \u201cEvery time I do a movie, a part of me goes into it and sometimes it\u2019s hard to leave,\u201d he says. \u201cI get withdrawals. So I try to do [films] that matter to me.\u201d\nPatel took home a BAFTA Best Supporting Actor as well as an Oscar nomination at the 89th Academy Awards for his role in Lion. The film was not only well received by critics but also a commercial success as one of the highest-grossing Australian films of all time.\nIt\u2019s not the first time that Patel has earned these prestigious accolades. His feature film debut, Slumdog Millionaire (2008) directed by Danny Boyle and co-starring Frieda Pinto, was nominated for 10 Academy Awards in 2009 and won eight, including best picture and best director. \u201cI\u2019d be stupid to say that [awards] don\u2019t matter,\u201d Patel says. \u201cAccolades mean more people are watching the films too. But there\u2019s also an opposite side of it which is about who can campaign better and it can pull you so far away from why you came into the industry. I think that\u2019s the hardest thing.\u201d\nThe classic white T-shirt - how you can look like James Dean and Marlon Brando\nLooking back, Patel says, he wished he could \u201crelax and try to enjoy it more\u201d. Now in the spotlight all the time, Patel believes there are responsibilities that come with his influence as an actor.\n\u201cFirst and foremost, we are storytellers. However, we are being put in a position where our voices are heard, although I sometimes feel we are not qualified,\u201d he says. \u201cThe industry is becoming a lot bolder, which is fantastic, and the people who didn\u2019t have a voice because of the colour of their skin or their gender are finding the courage to speak out. I think [the industry] is moving in the right direction for the betterment of everyone.\u201d\nBenedict Cumberbatch on playing Patrick Melrose and Doctor Strange in The Avengers: Infinity War\nNightclub linked to K-pop star Seungri investigated over alleged drugging and sexual assault of women\nWe review Le Bristol Paris, the \u2018City of Love\u2019 retreat where David Beckham romances Victoria on their wedding anniversaries\nGeorge Michael art collection auction: Damien Hirst, Tracey Emin among works to be sold\nBillionaire Amazon boss Jeff Bezos mulled buying National Enquirer to find leaker of nude photos, says girlfriend\u2019s brother",

        "title": "Walter Mitty life of media magnate turned robber baron - The Scotsman",
        "raw_content": "Walter Mitty life of media magnate turned robber baron\nALL little boys have heroes, few get the chance to emulate them. Conrad Black\u2019s hero was the press baron, William Randolph Hearst, whose empire grew to dominate the American newspaper industry in the early 20th century.\nIn a foreward to a biography of the newspaper legend, Black once wrote, \"he was a media visionary ... All his life, Hearst had a conviction, often outrageous but sometimes magnificent, that the rules that applied to others didn\u2019t apply to him.\"\nThe man on whom Orson Welles modelled Citizen Kane was indeed larger than life. He lived in opulence, and what did rules matter to a man who made and broke presidents? And Black, chasing his hero\u2019s mantle has certainly broken rules, and lived in opulence.\nUnfortunately, it turns out the opulence may be stolen, and when it comes to the \"rules\" not applying to him, corporate and judicial America may decide Black is no William Randolph Hearst.\nIn the US District Court in Chicago on Monday, a document landed detailing Black\u2019s stewardship of Hollinger International, and the picture it painted was more Walter Mitty ... or rather Walter Mitty meets Tamerlane.\nThe report prepared by a special committee from Black\u2019s former holding company, Hollinger International, is a relentless chronicle portraying the sack of a publicly quoted company. Black, his wife and their associates stride through its 500 pages like a mini-mongol horde, apparently pillaging and bleeding Hollinger at every turn, with an awe-inspiring disdain for good corporate governance, shareholder interest and the corporate and civil law of the United States.\nIt is a long story, with the first sniff of something wafting out of Hollinger\u2019s boardroom in May 2003 - a squabble over $73 million in fees paid to Black and his chief operating officer, David Radler. But as it has unravelled it has seen Black toppled from his role as chairman and chief executive of Hollinger, a battle over the ownership of the Daily Telegraph, Britain\u2019s biggest selling daily broadsheet, and a welter of lawsuits and counter-suits in the American courts.\nWhat is left is a tale of personal avarice on a titanic scale, and a portrait of a man of jaw-dropping arrogance, who not only believed that he would get away with it, but that it was his right to do so.\nFrom an early age, there was little doubt that Black was going to cut a swathe through life.\nConrad Black was born on 25 August, 1944, into relative wealth. His father, George, had been president of a big Canadian brewing company and went on to make a personal fortune by judicious stock market investments.\nThe young Black was to learn many lessons from his father. That the stock market was a better place to stick your dollars than ordinary gambling was taught via a fruit machine installed in the hall.\nThat he had also learned the value of enterprise, if not caution, first became apparent when he broke into his headmaster\u2019s study at Upper Canada College, stole exam papers and sold them to fellow pupils. He was caught and expelled.\nThe experience did nothing to make him more reticent, however. In his first job as cub reporter on a Quebec local paper, the Eastern Townships Advertiser, he offered his services as adviser to a Canadian senate committee investigating the mass media.\n\"My experience with journalists,\" he announced, \"authorises me to record that a very large number of them are ignorant, lazy, opinionated, intellectually dishonest and inadequately supervised\".\nHe was aged 25.\nHe bought two local newspapers and built them over the next eight years into a moderate business, capable of taking over the Argus Corporation, a Canadian holding company with high-profile assets such as Massey-Ferguson. The assets were dumped, controversy over alleged pension raids was brazened out and political rows with local politicians dodged.\nFrom the turmoil emerged a newspaper group controlling hundreds of titles across Canada and the US, and the genesis of Hollinger International.\nThe transforming deal was the purchase of the Telegraph Group in 1985 from the Berry family. Having paid just 30 million for over half the shares, he returned the business to profit within four years and discovered he had a cash cow.\nThe purchase of the Jerusalem Post, a stake in Australian group Fairfax, owner of the Sydney Morning Herald, and the Chicago Sun-Times followed. Like his hero, he was building an empire. Now it was time to get cracking on the lifestyle.\nThe first wife was fired; another, in the shape of glamorous right-wing columnist Barbara Amiel, installed. Work was also begun on his own vision of Xanadu. Black\u2019s Xanadu was to include a 20 million home in Palm Beach, Florida, where the garden fountain alone cost 1.5m, a Park Lane apartment in New York, a home in Toronto that boasts a copper cupola in the library modelled on the dome of St Peter\u2019s in Rome, and a Kensington mansion - a snip at 13.5 million.\nThen, in 2001, came the most glittering bauble of all: a peerage.\nThe Blacks had already set about establishing themselves in society. Their \"at-homes\" became legendary for their extravagance. Dining out expenses racked up to Hollinger\u2019s corporate credit cards also included $42,870 for a \"Happy Birthday, Barbara\" dinner party at New York\u2019s La Grenouille restaurant, charged at $212 a plate and including Beluga caviare, lobster ceviche and \"69 bottles of fine wine\".\nThey attended all the social events, preceded by retinues of imperial proportions and, if the events were charitable, brandishing the biggest cheque. Each donation was claimed back on Hollinger expenses.\nOf course, jetset lifestyles require jets. Black had Hollinger buy two, because as his wife observed at the time: \"It is always best to have two planes, because however well one plans ahead one always finds one is on the wrong continent.\"\nBut although the Blacks now had \"it\", Lady Black felt their grandeur was not significantly recognised, so she went to work on Anna Wintour, editor of Vogue in New York.\nLady Black has often spoken candidly in the past about her regrets: the early abortion; the old addiction to codeine and then anti-depressants. But, when the four times married, Watford-born socialite looks back over her 63 years, the one regret she will surely rue the most must be when her lobbying of Wintour led to Vogue doing a lifestyle photo-shoot in the Kensington pile.\nWhen the magazine hit US newsstands, staring out of its glossy pages was Barbara before a single shelf holding a dozen Hermes Birkin bags: total value, more than 50,000.\nThe next shot was of her collection of more than 100 pairs of Manolo Blahnik shoes, each with tags of between 250 and 800. She admitted she thought nothing of spending 35,000 on a cocktail dress, and modelled a necklace worth more than 100,000. \"I have an extravagance that knows no bounds,\" she boasted.\nIt was not just the envious readers of Vogue who marvelled at her taste for unlimited finery. The shareholders of Hollinger International, of which Lady Black was the vice-president, and of which her husband was chairman and chief executive, were slack-jawed.\nThey asked: How is it that our \"modest-sized company\" is allowing our millionaire boss to live a billionaire lifestyle? Then they set about finding out what was going on.\nWhen they were finished with Black, and his chief operating officer Radler\u2019s activities, they concluded: \"The special committee knows of few parallels to Black and Radler\u2019s brand of self-righteous and aggressive looting of Hollinger to the exclusion of all other concerns or interests ... all to satisfy the liquidity needs arising for the personal lifestyle Black and his wife had chosen to lead\".\nThe Telegraph Group alone, it is claimed, was raided between 1998 to September 2003 for the following: 424,861 for the \"use of Lord Black\u2019s staff\", including security at his home in Kensington; 50,000 for repairs and refurbishment to a Rolls-Royce owned by Black\u2019s Ravelston company; personal expenses totalling 216,000, which included a 4,163 Concorde flight to New York, 16,620 on three separate dinners for Henry Kissinger and his wife and a bill for \"summer drinks\" of 13,858.\n\"Hollinger\", says the report, \"was a company where abusive practices were inextricably linked to every major development or action. Black, as both chief executive officer and controlling shareholder, together with his associates, created an entity in which ethical corruption was a defining characteristic of the leadership team.\"\nNor does Lady Black escape the accusations. During seven years as a vice-president of Hollinger International, it is claimed she was paid almost 6.7 million in salary, bonuses and fees by the company.\nAs far as Hollinger is concerned, her \"lengthy list [of responsibilities] amounts to nothing more than euphemisms for ordinary activities such as reading the newspaper, having lunch, and chatting with her husband about current events\".\nMonday\u2019s filing however, is only the beginning of a long legal process, that many believe can only have one conclusion: Conrad, Lord Black is going to prison. And so, too, may his wife.\n\"If the allegations are true he has committed a number of criminal offences under US law,\" said Paul Pia, a senior corporate partner at the Edinburgh law firm Burness, who specialises in American corporate law.\nAnd what of Black tonight, as he reads through the reams of copy he has generated around the world? We know he doesn\u2019t like journalists much, having once described them as a, \"swarming, grunting masses of jackals\". In fact his predicament recalls one diatribe he launched at Max Hastings, a former editor of the Daily Telegraph, over an article Black felt not quite sound: \"This snivelling product of some pinko journalism school administered by the John Pilger/Christopher Hitchens Trust for the propagation of liberal mendacity does not give me a high comfort level, Max\".",

        "raw_content": "By Sustainable Development Solutions Network (SDSN) Spain / REDS (Red Espa\u00f1ola para el Desarrollo Sostenible)\nOn 16 October 2018 the Spanish SDSN Network, REDS launched the SDG Spanish Cities Index report showing the progress of 100 Spanish cities towards the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The event included an intervention by the Spanish Minister of Environment and a round table with the mayors of four Spanish cities who are leading the SDG implementation at the urban level.\nThe report provides a snapshot of the current sustainability level of the Spanish cities and will support local administrations in their achievement of the 2030 Agenda. It is intended to serve not only as a monitoring tool for the implementation of the sustainable development agenda, but also as a discussion starter among municipal agents through the identification of successful case studies of cities with similar challenges.\nThe study includes all the cities with more than 80,000 inhabitants and the 12 main metropolitan areas covering over 50% of the total population in Spain. For this purpose, 85 indicators were identified considering the national context and data availability of the statistical sources and following the SDSN methodology applied to previous SDG Index reports. The presented dashboards use a traffic-light chart to assess where each of the cities and metropolitan areas stand in each of the 17 SDGs.\nNo Spanish city has achieved the 17 SDGs\nThe results of the study show that none of the 100 cities or 12 metropolitan areas have yet achieved the objectives set for 2030 and that the best performing areas have achieved only 6 SDGs so far. However, all of the analyzed cities have performances above failure for at least 11 SDGs and 36 cities have no SDG in red.\nResults of the Spanish cities for SDG 3: Good Health and Well-being\nThe goals with the most cities in green are SDG 3, \u201cGood Health and Well-being\u201d and SDG 16, \u201cPeace, Justice and Strong Institutions\u201d reflecting the healthy dietary habits and the outstanding function of the Spanish public health care system as well as the accessible and safe characteristics of the cities. The results also show very positive results for SDGs 6 and 7 (\u201cClean Water and Sanitation\u201d and \u201cAffordable and Clean Energy\u201d).\nOn the other hand, the biggest challenges are faced in SDG 8 and SDG 13 (\u201cDecent Work and Economic Growth\u201d and \u201cClimate Action\u201d, respectively) which evidence the high unemployment rates of the country as well as the high GHG emissions and flood vulnerability of many coastal cities.\nThe SDG Spanish Cities Index was inspired by the Global SDG Index and Dashboards and the U.S Cities Index, which SDSN co-produces annually to assess SDG performance at both national and international levels. The creation of this Index is intended to better understand Spain\u2019s specific challenges and variations across the country. The study was authored by Javier Garc\u00eda L\u00f3pez and Raffele Sisto, experts on Urban Indicators and lead by In\u00e9s S\u00e1nchez de Madariaga, expert on Urban Planning and a Rector\u2019s Delegate for Gender Equality. Moreover, the authors were technically assessed by SDSN experts on the SDG Index methodology.\nREDS is the national network of SDSN and it supports the implementation of the SDGs at national, regional, and municipal levels in Spain. For this study, REDS collaborated with the Spanish Federation of Municipalities and Provinces (FEMP), Iberdrola, Mediapost, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Cooperation.\nFor further information please contact info@reds-sdsn.es\nPosted in November 2018 Spain",

        "title": "Sony a7S II vs Panasonic GH5 vs Canon 5D Mark IV",
        "raw_content": "By Andrew Collings | January 31st, 2018\nSony a7S II vs Panasonic GH5 vs Canon 5D Mark IV\nWe are spoiled by choice in the hybrid camera market today. Our DSLRs and mirrorless cameras are increasingly absorbing the functions and features that cinema cameras and prosumer camcorders touted as exclusive just a few short years ago. Cases in point: the Panasonic GH5, the Canon 5D Mark IV, and the Sony a7S II. These three superstars all take different stances on the purpose of a hybrid camera, but all three are indisputably exceptional tools that we filmmakers sometimes take for granted. Each is perfect for someone, but which is right for you?\nIf You are a Photographer First\nThis one shouldn\u2019t be a surprise. Canon DSLRs have always been photography tools first and foremost. The 5D Mark IV of course accepts Canon EF lenses, some of the most widely beloved and available photography lenses available today. It sports a higher megapixel count than the GH5 or a7S II, stronger phase-dection and dual pixel AF, and a battery life that puts the others to shame. This is a workhorse camera, no ifs ands or buts.\nIn a very close second, we have the GH5. Panasonic is angling in on the photography world with this camera, and largely succeeding. Comparing it to the Sony, the GH5 features dual SD card slots, a necessity for secure shoots, a higher megapixel count, faster burst shooting, and faster startup that helps you catch the moment more easily. It loses to the 5D Mark IV on Autofocus, ISO performance, and sensor size. But on image quality and in real-world shooting situations, it comes surprisingly close.\nIf you Shoot 4K Frequently\nAll three of these cameras are 4K capable, in what has quickly become the new norm. But not all 4K is created equal, and just because you can doesn\u2019t mean you always should. If high-resolution video is your goal, then look no further than the Panasonic GH5. Alone among this cohort of cameras, it shoots DCI 4K in 10-bit 4:2:2, a rare feat among cameras selling for twice the price. And it can do all that at up to 60fps, too.\nThe a7S II has one advantage, though: it is the only option here for full-frame 4K recording. The 5D Mark IV is also a full-frame camera, but Canon has chosen to center-crop their sensor when shooting 4K. So if you want the widest field of view possible, go with Sony. You will also get a more efficient codec in XAVC-S while you are there. The 5D Mark IV records in a notoriously large M-JPEG format that will have you swapping cards much more frequently than you may be used to.\nIf You Shoot Slow Motion Frequently\nLet\u2019s get right down to it: On this front as well, the crown goes handily to the Panasonic GH5. This is a camera capable of up to 180fps in 1080p and 60p in DCI 4K. The a7S II caps out at 120, and the 5D Mark IV comes in dead last with only 60fps.\nIf You Shoot in a Log Profile\nLog profiles, simply put, are a sneaky way that camera manufacturers have found to cram a whole bunch of image data from the extreme highs and lows of the image into the center of the histogram, and do it in such a way that it can be unpacked later for a much broader dynamic range than you would normally get. The recorded image looks flat as all get out, but can be re-saturated and re-contrasted selectively at a later time. The overall dynamic ranges of the cameras, as measured by DXOMark, are all within half a stop of each other. As such, there are no objective winners and losers here, only options for the discerning shooter.\nThe Sony a7S II records in Slog2 and Slog3, which are both very flat profiles. Slog2 was designed to work more specifically with Sony digital sensors, while Slog3 was designed to mimic the Cineon standard, used to scan film negatives since the 80s. Both feature more color shifting than an amateur colorist might be capable of dealing with, and have a reputation for being a little unwieldy. That said, they are certainly the flattest and most malleable of the options here, so those with some experience or courage may find joy in manipulating the log images from the Sony a7S II. An excellent, in-depth explainer can be read here.\nThe Panasonic GH5 with its V-Log L is fairly comparable to Slog3 in terms of flatness. Keep in mind, this is where 10-bit 4:2:2 recording can be of real benefit. The higher bit depth of the GH5 retains more image detail, which allows for more flexibility in grading than either the Canon 5D Mark IV or the Sony a7S II can offer with their 8-bit codecs. So while V-Log isn\u2019t the flattest of the bunch, it is probably the most robust option if you\u2019re planning a heavy color grade.\nAnd lastly, we come to the Canon 5D Mark IV, shooting in C Log. Not C log 2, the super-flat beast, or C log 3, the goldilocks profile. Just the original C log. This is the least-flat profile of the bunch, but it is still a valuable log profile with a unique look. Canon has long had a lock on the best skintones straight out of the box, and C Log is no exception. This is the easiest profile to grade, and the hardest to mess up. If you want most of the advantages of a log profile without all the hassle of a complex grade, then maybe C log on the 5D Mark IV is for you.\nIf You Shoot in Low-Light Situations\nThis seems to be the question of our age: \u201cwhat\u2019s the usable ISO go up to?\u201d And while usable is a subjective measure, these cameras are far enough apart on the spectrum that we can speak broadly about the strengths and weaknesses of each.\nThe overall winner is, surprise surprise, the Sony a7S II. Philip Bloom\u2019s demonstration of the original a7S melted brains across the internet, and the sequel is just as sensitive as ever. This is a camera that has earned its reputation by being ridiculously sensitive to light, and no camera yet has managed to dethrone it. Simply put, this is the best low-light camera on the market at the time of writing.\nBefore Sony entered the picture, the 5D Mark III held the crown. So it should be no surprise that second place goes to the Canon 5D Mark IV. You will not be disappointed with its performance under almost all lighting conditions. Some users are easily comfortable with results all the way up to ISO 12,800.\nAnd lastly, of course, the GH5. While it performs much more admirably than the GH4, consensus seems to have the usable ISO ceiling around 6400, much lower than the a7S II and still not on par with the 5D Mark IV. Intriguingly, just prior to the writing of this article, Panasonic announced the GH5 S - an extreme low-light variant of the GH5 that they intend to compete directly with the a7S II. Time will only tell if it is up to the task.\nIf you couldn\u2019t tell, each camera has its own strengths, weaknesses, and unique features. The Panasonic GH5 and the Sony a7S II are the undisputed champions of this hybrid camera market on paper, but that doesn\u2019t mean you can underestimate the respect Canon have cultivated for their color science and reliable, sturdy hardware. Just like with any major purchase, you have to try before you buy. Rent one of these cameras from a Sharegrid member and talk to them about the experience of being an owner.

        "title": "Are you an aggressive investor?\u2014Sharesies",
        "raw_content": "\u201cAggressive\u201d is a term we hear a lot in the investing world. It\u2019s certainly a loaded word\u2014but what does it actually mean? Are you an aggressive investor? And if you are, is this good, bad or somewhere in between?\nIt\u2019s about your investments, not your personality\nWhen we talk about aggression in investing, we\u2019re referring more to the investments a person has, and less to the person themselves. According to Sorted, an aggressive investor is someone who:\nDoesn\u2019t mind seeing their investment go up and down in value\nHas a long time horizon (in other words, doesn\u2019t mind waiting a long time for their money)\nDoesn\u2019t need income from their investments\nTends to get higher returns over the long run\nWhen you dig into these things, you can see that investing aggressively has a lot less to do with your personality, and a lot more to do with your choice of investments.\nWhat aggressive investing looks like\nIn practice, aggressive investing will tend to trend towards things that are risky, volatile, or both. A conservative investor will invest in things that are neither risky nor volatile. So an aggressive investor\u2019s Sharesies portfolio is more likely to skew towards higher risk funds, like the US 500 or Emerging Markets, rather than lower risk funds like NZ Bond.\nIt\u2019s helpful to think of aggressive investing as shades of grey, rather than black and white. A portfolio isn\u2019t aggressive or conservative. Rather, it\u2019s either very aggressive, very conservative, or somewhere in between. If your portfolio had $99 worth of the US 500 fund, and $1 worth of the NZ Bond fund, that\u2019s a pretty aggressive portfolio\u2014you\u2019re accepting a roller coaster ride of ups and downs, for the chance of higher longer-term returns. And if you had things switched the other way around, you\u2019d be mostly conservative\u2014you\u2019d expect a pretty flat ride up the hill, but give up the chance of that ride being more of a mountain than a hill.\nWhy invest aggressively?\nThe golden rule of investing is that if you\u2019re willing to take more risk, you\u2019re also able to get a shot at better returns\u2014but the tradeoff is that there\u2019s a higher chance of making no return at all, or even going backwards and ending up with less than you had when you started. That golden rule is the main reason people invest aggressively. They take a bit more risk and hopefully make more money.\nIf you\u2019re young, you have a bit of a \u2018get out jail free\u2019 card for this golden rule\u2014a long time horizon. Remember, your time horizon is how long you\u2019re willing to leave your money invested for. If you don\u2019t need your money any time soon, you could choose investments with more volatility. A more volatile investment will have more risk in the short term, as it may decrease in value by a significant amount overnight. But that same volatility goes the other way as well, which can give you a bigger return in the long term. If you can wait out short-term ups and downs with a long time horizon, then an aggressive investment portfolio may be suitable for you.\nOn the other hand, if you\u2019re in your late 60s and getting ready to retire, you\u2019re probably leaning towards a more balanced or conservative approach, as you may want to start spending that money soon.\nIf you\u2019re in your 20s, you can probably get away with more aggressive investing. Even if you\u2019re not investing for retirement, you can still have a pretty long time horizon\u201415 years would only put you in your 40s, and that\u2019s long enough to really ride those ups and downs of the share market.\nWhen is aggressive investing not right for me?\nBeing young doesn\u2019t automatically make aggressive investing a natural fit for you. It all comes down to the goal you\u2019re investing towards. If you\u2019re about to sell your shares to put a deposit on a house, then aggressive investing may not be for you\u2014after all, the last thing you need is for your house deposit to become smaller overnight from a market dip!\nIt\u2019s about the way your investment\u2019s value today connects to your goals. If your goal is around the corner, then your investment losing value may affect your ability to reach that goal. But if your goal is years in the future, then a loss in value today or tomorrow isn\u2019t going to make a difference.\nAnd remember what we said earlier in this post\u2014aggressive investing isn\u2019t an all or nothing deal. You can divide your portfolio up in any way you want, whether that\u2019s 100% aggressive, 100% conservative, or somewhere in between.\nThe team at Sorted have put together a great quiz to help give you a steer when you make these decisions. Give it a go, and let us know your results!",

        "title": "Wood Bats Bring Summer to the Upper Midwest | SI Kids",
        "raw_content": "Wood Bats Bring Summer to the Upper Midwest\nWilson von Bohlen | July 1st 2016, 10:48 am\nSummer means a lot of things. Lemonade stands. Swimming. Riding bikes. But nothing means summer like baseball.\nFrom kids playing Little League to the pros in the major leagues, baseball fields across America come alive. Of all the places to watch and play baseball in summer, the collegiate wood bat leagues are among the best. There are several summer leagues across the country in which college players test their skills using wood bats, and the Northwoods League (NWL), which spans the upper Midwest, is the home run of them all.\nTeams in the NWL play 72 games in 78 days, and that means fans can catch a game almost daily at a stadium such as Kapco Park, where the Lakeshore Chinooks play in Mequon, Wisconsin, on the shore of Lake Michigan. The NWL was created in 1994 and has become known for many things, including playing the most number of games each summer and drawing the highest fan attendance.\n\u201cThe NWL is the best internship a college student athlete can have to prepare for MLB,\u201d says Chinooks manager Eddy Morgan. \u201cIt teaches you the physical aspect of the game but also the mental aspect of playing almost daily.\u201d\nAs players come from colleges all over the country, they also meet new people, form team chemistry, and learn from experienced coaches while playing with wood bats. The only other league or level of baseball using wood bats is MLB, making summer leagues a new challenge for even these experienced athletes. \u201cIt\u2019s tougher playing with a wood bat because of the smaller sweet spot,\u201d says Owen Miller, shortstop for Illinois State University and the Chinooks.\n\u201cSwinging a wood bat makes you realize you need to hit the ball a little bit better because with a metal bat you can get away with some things,\u201d says Joe Duncan, outfielder for Eastern Illinois University and Miller\u2019s teammate in Mequon.\nAs a fan attending an NWL game, you can expect to see\u2026well, a lot of fans and great baseball! The Chinooks club and NWL provide \u201caffordable family fun to our communities,\u201d according to NWL President Gary Hoover. \u201cIt is much easier to bring the entire family and get so close to the action on the field, watching high caliber college players in a beautiful ballpark.\u201d\nPlayers walk right past fans on their way to and from the dugouts, and fans can stand just feet from pitchers and catchers warming up in the bullpen. After the game, players happily sign autographs and talk to fans of all ages.\nFor most players, the wood bat leagues are a unique summer camp type of experience. Since most players are from other parts of the country, they live with an area host family for the summer. \u201cIt\u2019s a very cool thing because they become extended family members,\u201d says Morgan, who lived with a host family himself in his first years of coaching the Chinooks. \u201cNow they are an extension of my family.\u201d\nMarshall Kasowski, a pitcher for the University of Houston, has returned to the Chinooks club for a second summer. \u201cI had a lot of fun last summer and wanted to come back again,\u201d says Kasowski. \u201cIt feels a lot like professional baseball, from the schedule and level of competition to Kapco and the coaching staff.\u201d\nIn between practices and games, the Chinooks players explore the Milwaukee area by attending Brewers games, fishing area lakes, and listening to music at Summerfest. Their first choice of activity remains clear: playing ball. \u201cMy favorite thing is playing baseball. If I could, I would never stop playing,\u201d says Alec Olund, an outfielder and utility player for Purdue University and the Chinooks. \u201cThis is the best way to spend summer, playing ball with a great group of guys.\u201d\nFans seem to agree. Mike Cho attends many games with his family members, who are all are huge baseball fans. \u201cI like that the NWL plays games every day, so there is always good baseball to watch,\u201d says Cho. \u201cI like the wood bats; the crack of a wood bat is like nothing else. It\u2019s summer for us.\u201d\nWatching the Chinooks play in the NWL, fans get to watch athletes with major league skills having Little League fun. With woods behind leftfield and Lake Michigan just past rightfield, fans find their seats and kids play catch near the bullpen. The home team Chinooks fell short on a recent summer day, losing 1\u20130 to the Wisconsin Woodchucks, but nobody seemed in a rush to leave.\nIt is summer, after all.\nPhotographs courtesy of the Lakeshore Chinooks",

        "title": "Intruder (1989) \u00ab Silver Emulsion Film Reviews",
        "raw_content": "Starring Elizabeth Cox, Ren\u00e9e Estevez, Dan Hicks, David Byrnes, Sam Raimi, Eugene Robert Glazer, Billy Marti, Burr Steers, Craig Stark, Ted Raimi, Alvy Moore, Tom Lester, Emil Sitka, Bruce Campbell, Lawrence Bender, Scott Spiegel\nDirected by Scott Spiegel\nExpectations: Moderate. I expect the film to be awful, but the FX to be awesome.\nTwo years after co-writing Evil Dead 2 with Sam Raimi, Scott Spiegel got his chance at his own full-length feature film. Based on an earlier short of his, Intruder is quite modest in its budget and aspirations, but achieves true terror and suspense. I\u2019m sad that I never happened upon this film before, as it would have easily been a favorite for many years. Up front it\u2019s important to be aware of a couple of things though. On the DVD boxart, Bruce Campbell and Sam Raimi\u2019s names are prominently displayed. Red flags should come up at this, as low-budget trash horror has a knack for playing up the small cameos of big names to trick people into buying or renting. Thankfully, I knew beforehand that Bruce Campbell was only in the final thirty seconds, as this could have been a very different experience if I went in blind.\nThe whole film is set within a supermarket during the night shift. Originally the film was titled The Night Crew, but the studio thought it didn\u2019t sound slasher enough, so they changed it to the generic and boring Intruder. Anyway, the film is about the supermarket\u2019s night crew and how they must deal with a homicidal intruder! Bet ya didn\u2019t see that coming! The film opens in the market\u2019s final minutes before closing for the night. Jennifer\u2019s old boyfriend Craig just got out of jail for murder and comes to visit her at the store in an attempt to get her back. She tells him to fuck off, but when he doesn\u2019t take no for an answer, some of the other workers try to force him out of the store. He runs off into the back and the hunt is on. Craig slinks through the shadows and slowly picks off the workers one by one as the film progresses.\nThe setup is a straightforward slasher movie but the choice to make the antagonist a jealous boyfriend instead of your typical indestructible Jason-type adds a lot of realism to the suspense of the film. We\u2019ve all known asshole guys, so a tale about one of those assholes snapping and turning homicidal isn\u2019t that big of a stretch. The interplay between Craig and Jennifer sets up the characters well and is enough to ground the murders in reality. Across the board the acting is pretty good, especially considering the low-budget. Sam Raimi isn\u2019t known for his acting but he does well in a minor role as a butcher, as does his brother Ted in an even smaller (and much goofier) part. But the star of the show is Jennifer, played by Elizabeth Cox. She carries the movie and drives it forward, and while she might not possess the best chops, she portrays Jennifer realistically enough to squeeze genuine emotion out of the viewers. Dan Hicks (who you\u2019ll probably recognize from Evil Dead 2) is also great as the store\u2019s manager and steals most every scene he\u2019s in.\nSpiegel\u2019s direction and inventive shot selection create a tense mood with lots to look at. Since the whole film takes place around one location, it could easily get boring, but Spiegel never phones this one in. There are tons of interesting shots throughout the film and while there\u2019s definitely a fair share of shots that don\u2019t work, overall the risky venture of being inventive pays off. It keeps what might have been a boring film engaging and taut with suspense. To be fair though, a lot of the creativeness in the shots are reminiscent of the trademark Raimi style from the Evil Dead films. As he was present during the shooting and friends with Spiegel, I have to wonder how much influence he had over the final product. In any case, if you enjoy Evil Dead 2 for its fun camerawork, you\u2019ll see similar things here.\nThis brings me to what is probably the most enjoyable part of the film, the gore from KNB. Each death is gruesome, bloody and inventive. One of my favorite things in horror movies is watching how creative the makeup men get at achieving a specific effect and making it look realistic. Almost every kill in Intruder is a joy to watch from this vantage point, but they all bow down and pay their respects to one particular kill, the death by table saw. I happened upon a screenshot of this scene and it is what initially interested me in this movie. It looked so convincing and realistic, I felt that any movie it came from would be worthy of my time. I am happy to report that the scene does not disappoint and looks so realistic, that I must imagine one of the KNB interns took one for the team and went to the great big FX studio in the sky. Simply put, the killer saws a dude\u2019s head in half from ear to ear, and it is so gnarly and bloody that even the most jaded gore fan couldn\u2019t help but to break a smile just as big. And as a side note, make sure you\u2019re watching the 88 minute uncut edition if you want to see any of this.\nA true hidden gem of 1980s horror, Scott Spiegel\u2019s directorial debut is a fantastic film that is a fun watch from start to finish. Creative camerawork and editing, coupled with good performances and excellent KNB FX work, make for one hell of a low-budget feature. Horror fans, this one\u2019s for you.\nCome back tomorrow as we conclude our month-long horror fest with the Full Moon movie featuring the one and only Phil Fondacaro as Dracula, The Creeps!\n1980s, Horror, Movie Reviews, Rating: 3 Stars, Will's Reviews 1989, Alvy Moore, Billy Marti, Bruce Campbell, Burr Steers, Craig Stark, Dan Hicks, David Byrnes, Elizabeth Cox, Emil Sitka, Eugene Robert Glazer, Lawrence Bender, Ren\u00e9e Estevez, Sam Raimi, Scott Spiegel, Ted Raimi, Tom Lester, Wizard Video\n\u00ab The Creeps (1997)\nBreeders (1986) \u00bb",

        "raw_content": "Book Review | Never Wave Goodbye\nTitle: Never Wave Goodbye: A Novel of Suspense\nAuthor: Doug Magee\nTrying to read a novel by a new writer, in my mind, is always a bit of a crap shoot. I have found some new authors whose first books are truly amazing and those, sadly, whose are not. So, when I had the chance to read Never Wave Goodbye, which is the first novel by Doug Magee, I was a bit leery because I wasn\u2019t sure on which side of the fence this novel was going to fall.\nNever Wave Goodbye has a really interesting premise. Lena is a woman with a shaky marriage and a nine-year-old daughter named Sarah. When Sarah is picked up by the driver from the summer camp she will be attending for two weeks. Lena hopes that this time on her own with her husband David will give them a chance to reconcile their differences and fix their marriage. The whole picture shifts, however, when another van arrives 30 minutes later and Lena discovers that her daughter has been kidnapped, along with three other children who are to be attending the same camp.\nThis novel is really interesting because it shifts back and forth between the parents of the children to the experience being had by the children themselves. There are so many questions coming out throughout the novel as it is discovered that the kidnapping is part of a very complex plan and there are many potential suspects among the parents. The novel also looks, indirectly, at the impact that the media can have on these events as a lot of dirt comes to the surface about all of the parents and the reader continually finds new suspects in the novel. Who is behind this kidnapping plot? Will the children be saved?\nI enjoyed this novel overall. Magee\u2019s writing style is engaging and the story is interesting. Though there are a few unanswered questions in the book (like how the kidnappers knew who the 4 children were that were to be in the van that morning), overall I thought that the book was quite well-written. I also appreciated the epilogue at the end of the novel because it gave another perspective on Sarah\u2019s experience during the kidnapping.\nI\u2019d recommend this novel. I think anyone who enjoys an easy to read suspense novel would really like Never Wave Goodbye by Doug Magee.\nBlog Spotlight | Laughing Lindsay\nBook Review | The Scrubs\nnfmgirl \u2014 September 27, 2010 at 11:16 am Reply\nTerri L \u2014 September 27, 2010 at 11:37 am Reply\nI like reading new authors and this book looks good!\nLeAnn B \u2014 September 27, 2010 at 12:15 pm Reply\nI like a good mystery.

        "raw_content": "\u2018Annabelle: Creation\u2019 Trailer: The Possessed Doll Haunts a Group of Orphan Girls\nPosted on Tuesday, June 20th, 2017 by Ethan Anderton\nBecause everything needs to be explained to death nowadays, we\u2019re getting Annabelle: Creation, the origin story of the possessed doll that made its debut in The Conjuring before getting its own spin-off in 2014.\nContinuing to expand the mythology of the supernatural, paranormal activity investigated by Lorraine (Vera Farmiga) and Ed (Patrick Wilson) Warren, Annabelle: Creation shows us how this creepy doll came to be possessed by some kind of evil spirit, tricking a couple grief stricken by the loss of their daughter to transfer a demon into the old fashioned toy. In an attempt to pay for their mistake, they shelter a group of orphan girls, one of who becomes the next target for Annabelle.\nWatch the new Annabelle Creation trailer after the jump.\nAs someone who enjoyed The Conjuring quite a bit, as well as The Conjuring 2, it was supremely disappointing to sit through the first Annabelle. It was full of jump scares and the doll itself can only be so creepy before it becomes boring. It feels like the least creative part of the world of Ed and Lorraine Warren so far, and finding out where the doll came from seems even less interesting.\nSadly, the horror side of this origin story doesn\u2019t look like it\u2019s offering much either. There are some ridiculous jump scares in the trailer, and while that\u2019s usually what horror trailers try to do, I\u2019m betting the movie is full of cheap thrills like that as well. At the very least, this movie has the talented Lulu Wilson, who helped make Ouija: Origin of Evil a compelling prequel story, so maybe she can help elevate the material here as well.\nAnnabelle: Creation is written by Gary Dauberman, who also wrote Annabelle, and directed by Lights Out helmer David F. Sandberg. The film stars Stephanie Sigman (Spectre), Talitha Bateman (The 5th Wave), Lulu Wilson (Ouija: Origin of Evil), Philippa Coulthard (After the Dark), Grace Fulton (Badland), Lou Lou Safran (The Choice), Samara Lee (Foxcatcher) and Tayler Buck, with Anthony LaPaglia (Without a Trace) and Miranda Otto (The Lord of the Rings Trilogy).\nIf you want to see more from Annabelle: Creation, you can watch the first trailer right here.\nSeveral years after the tragic death of their little girl, a dollmaker and his wife welcome a nun and several girls from a shuttered orphanage into their home, soon becoming the target of the dollmaker\u2019s possessed creation, Annabelle.\nAnnabelle: Creation hits theaters late this summer on August 11.\n\u2018Shazam\u2019 Filmmakers on How the Movie Connects to the DCEU, Dwayne Johnson\u2019s Black Adam, and More [Interview]\n\u2018Shazam\u2019 Suit Might Have Cost $1 Million To Create; Director David F.

Now there\u2019s a third trailer, which actually shows off some of the film\u2019s story, which is based on a sort of twist that the previous clips didn\u2019t even suggest.\nMegamind has gone through a couple of title changes, and possibly a story change or two in the last year and a half. This trailer still has the jokey \u2018Incredibles + Superman\u2019 vibe of the first couple trailers, and there are some really nice small details, like the prison for the \u2018criminally gifted.\u2019 The fish sidekick is still pretty cute, and Ferrell seems to be doing a spot-on job of voicing the title character.\nBut as we see more of the story, which appears here to have been lightened a bit from the first reports (which might also have deliberately omitted some detail) I wonder how it will escape seeming like a clone of The Incredibles. Obviously it\u2019s jumping off from a different point, but there are still seem to be a great many similarities. Oh, who am I kidding? It\u2019s a DreamWorks animated family film. I don\u2019t think they really care.\nHere\u2019s the current synopsis:\nMegamind is the most brilliant super\u2013villain the world has ever known\u2026and the least successful.

The Emperor is dead. The galaxy celebrates. What happens next?\nThat\u2019s exactly what the forthcoming comic book Star Wars: Shattered Empire will set out to answer as one of many new stories coming this fall as part of the Journey to Star Wars: The Force Awakens publishing program. The comic book picks up immediately after the Battle of Endor, showing that the destruction of the second Death Star wasn\u2019t exactly an easy happy ending, and it certainly wasn\u2019t the absolute end of the Empire either.\nFind out what we learned about Star Wars Shattered Empire from an interview with series writer Greg Rucka that we break down after the jump!\nFirst of all, here\u2019s the official synopsis of the four-issue comic series arriving on September 2nd:\nEmperor Palpatine\u2019s twenty-year reign of terror came to an abrupt and fiery end in the skies above the forest moon of Endor. A decisive victory for the Rebel Alliance, to be sure, but even with the loss of its leadership, the Empire\u2019s Moffs and regional governors retained their hold on important systems from the Core to the Outer Rim, thanks to the might of the Imperial Starfleet. Now, with a power vacuum atop the Empire, those Moffs will jockey for position and control, and the heroes of the Rebel Alliance will soon discover that a wounded and fractious Empire may be more dangerous than any threat they faced before!\nShattered Empire was written in collaboration with the Lucasfilm Story Group, the new group of Lucasfilm employees, headed up by Kiri Hart and created by President Kathleen Kennedy, whose job is to make sure every single Star Wars movie, TV show, book, comic book and video game tell one, big Star Wars story. This group also included Rayne Roberts, Pablo Hidalgo, and Leland Chee.\nThe Two Main Characters\nThe two main characters are Kes and Shara Bey, husband and wife Rebels. Shara is a pilot and Kes is part of the ground troops, so during the rebellion they\u2019ve spent more time apart than they have together.\nAccording to Rucka (via StarWars.com), at least in his mind, Kes and Shara joined the Rebellion after the first victory at Yavin in A New Hope, and they joined because they wanted to make sure they believed in and helped shape the future that their then-newborn child would be living in. This backstory is subject to change, but that was the emotional core in mind at the time of the writing.\nThe time period covered by Shattered Empire will be about three to six months following the Battle of Endor.\nKes and Shara think that the fight is over once the Battle of Endor is over, but they quickly learn that\u2019s not the case. Rucka explains, \u201cThey\u2019re both very tired veterans, and they come out of [the Battle of] Endor with the elation that we see in [Return of the Jedi]. \u2018We\u2019ve won. It\u2019s over.\u2019 \u2014 only to discover that, no it\u2019s not. The Empire was huge.\u201d\nThe Empire Doesn\u2019t Give Up\nThe Empire doesn\u2019t just give up after the second Death Star is destroyed. Rucka says, \u201cThe Empire still has resources. The Empire still has an enormous fleet. They may be in disarray post the Battle of Endor, but to think that in that vacuum people aren\u2019t stepping up [is shortsighted].\u201d\nIn fact, some of the Empire may be even more aggressive now that they\u2019re backed into a corner by the Rebels. Rucka says that while there may be some Imperials who just bail at this crucial point in the fight, but \u201cfor every Moff who does that, there are five who say, \u2018Like hell am I leaving this post. We\u2019ve got stormtroopers for a reason. You get out there and you shoot every last one of these upstart insurgents, these terrorists, and you make clear to them that the rule of law still stands.\u2019 So it does get ugly.\u201d\nContinue Reading Star Wars: Shattered Empire Details >>\nComic Books, Disney/Pixar, LucasFilm, Sci-Fi, Sequels, Return-of-the-Jedi, Star Wars: Shattered Empire, Star Wars: The Force Awakens, Star-Wars, The Force Awakens",

        "raw_content": "Porn, drinking, harassment \u2013- just another day at work?\nIn May, Bobby Blair made a quiet exit from the San Miguel Power Association after four years as general manager. Board members would not say why he was leaving; Blair would only say, \u201cIt\u2019s time.\u201d But a printout of an e-mail sent on May 31, 2005, might provide a glimpse of the real story behind Blair\u2019s departure.\nIn May, Bobby Blair made a quiet exit from the San Miguel Power Association after four years as general manager. Board members would not say why he was leaving; Blair would only say, \u201cIt\u2019s time.\u201d\nBut a printout of an e-mail sent May 31, 2005, might provide a glimpse of the real story behind Blair\u2019s departure.\nIn it, a topless blond woman holds a piece of paper that reads, \u201cI Love Bobby Blair.\u201d Above her picture is one line of text: \u201cYes, I had a good weekend. BB.\u201d\nThe sender is identified as Bobby Blair. The recipients are a host of SMPA employees, from the operations chief and member-service manager to the technicians who run the co-op\u2019s power substations.\nAnd according to charges made by former SMPA employee John Taylor, the e-mail is only a part of the problems at San Miguel Power, the electric cooperative that serves 8,800 customers on the Western Slope.\nA letter sent this April by Taylor\u2019s lawyer alleges sexual harassment, racist comments and drinking in the boardroom at the cooperative.\nThe letter, sent to the SMPA board, says Taylor was fired from his job as chief operating officer \u201cbecause he protested and made it obvious he did not agree with the hostile work environment.\u201d It seeks an out-of-court settlement for Taylor and threatens a lawsuit if SMPA doesn\u2019t settle.\nThe two sides are negotiating but have yet to reach a settlement. No lawsuit has been filed.\n\u201cIt\u2019s still a case in progress,\u201d said Gary Yamnitz, the co-op\u2019s president.\nYamnitz said that the e-mails were not the only reason for Blair\u2019s departure, but \u201cthat\u2019s what brought it to a head.\u201d He declined to say anything more, citing possible lawsuits and privacy concerns.\nBlair did not respond to several messages left at his home and on his cell phone.\nBlair left the co-op May 16, taking six months\u2019 pay in severance. No one at San Miguel Power would discuss why Blair had been allowed to quietly resign with a half-year\u2019s severance package.\nAt the time, Blair merely said it was time for him to leave.\n\u201cI\u2019m going to head for something less stressful,\u201d he said in an interview this spring. \u201cI\u2019m not going to bear any ill will.\u201d\nA lawyer for San Miguel Power said the co-op\u2019s board had \u201cno inkling\u201d of any inappropriate behavior until the letter and e-mail printouts were sent this spring.\nThe co-op\u2019s attorney, Jim Link, said that San Miguel Power had already conducted an investigation using an independent company. According to Link, the e-mails had indeed been sent on Blair\u2019s company e-mail address, but he said the other charges were shakier.\n\u201cSome of the things in the letter were found to be true,\u201d he said. \u201cAlmost all of the other allegations were put in dispute.\u201d\nLast week, the Planet and Norwood Post received copies of the April letter from Taylor\u2019s lawyer and a sheaf of printed e-mails. The packet bore no return address, only a postmark from Grand Junction dated Aug. 20.\nTaylor could not be reached for comment, and his attorney, Diane S. King, would not discuss the case.\nBut the e-mails themselves seem to speak volumes. The Planet could not independently authenticate the e-mails or ask Blair whether he had sent them. But SMPA officials said they were real, and they were sent from company computers.\nThey are forwards with a frat-boy tone and X-rated content attached.\nOne shows Christmas ornaments hanging from a woman\u2019s breasts. Another e-mail explains \u201cWhy men like lesbians, but women don\u2019t like gay men!\u201d It compares a photo of beautiful nude women with one of fat naked men.\nIn each e-mail, \u201cBobby Blair\u201d was the name in the \u201cFrom\u201d field, and a host of San Miguel Power employees were named in the \u201cTo\u201d field. They are dated from May 2005 to June 2006.\nThe letter from Taylor\u2019s attorney raises a host of other detailed allegations. Among them:\n- Employees were pressured to drink on the job. Some drank on the job and then returned to work or drove company vehicles home. One employee went on a beer run in an SMPA vehicle.\n- Employees with disabilities were discriminated against.\n- Female employees had to endure a barrage of sexist comments about their breasts and intelligence.\n- Employees had after-hours parties on SMPA property and \u201con numerous occasions, Mr. Taylor arrived at work in the morning to find beer and hard liquor bottles and cans littering the office.\u201d\n- On July 14, 2006, during an all-night employee bender at SMPA offices, a backhoe was crashed into an SMPA building.\nBut Link said that the atmosphere at SMPA was nowhere near this Animal House melee. Workers would sometimes invite one another for drinks after work, Link said, but the cooperative\u2019s investigation found no evidence that any employee had been pressured to drink.\nLink said there was also no evidence that anyone had driven a backhoe into an SMPA building.\nAnd at no point, Link said, did any SMPA employees reach out to him or board members to report pornographic e-mails, complaints of sexual harassment, on-the-clock drinking or any other inappropriate or unsafe behavior.\nOn Wednesday, San Miguel Power updated its company policies, apparently in direct response to these allegations.\nUnder the new policies, employees are barred from sending e-mails containing sexual content, racial or gender slurs or anything \u201cdiscriminatory, offensive, obscene, threatening, harassing, intimidating or disruptive.\u201d\nAnd the board updated the cooperative\u2019s drug and alcohol policy. Before, nothing written had prohibited drinking on SMPA property. Now, it is clearly forbidden, in black and white.",

Picture: Michael Hardy\nA number of Star readers took to Facebook to express their delight at the move.\nLynda Ashmore posted: \u201cThat's brilliant. I remember going there as a child with my mum and dad.\n\u201cMust make time to go again.\u201d\nSimon Tongue described it as \u201cgreat news\u201d as it \u201cdid look a mess.\u201d\nEmma Memmott added: \u201cLovely place, I went ever year when I was younger.\u201d\nPatricia Davies described it as a \u201cwonderful environment for Sheffield youngsters to use.\u201d\nThe project comes after the Friends of Porter Valley conservation group commissioned a masterplan in 2011 and have spent the last four years consulting with the public and drawing up models.\nAs part of the scheme, silt removed from the dam will be taken to a licensed contractor where it will be cleansed of naturally occurring pollutants and used for park landscaping.\nThere will also be the installation of a semi-porous, submerged wall stretching across the pond that will leave a channel of around 4.5 metres \u2013 wide enough for water to pass through.\nIt is hoped this will reduce the amount of silt being left behind by the river without disrupting the flow of water.\nFriends of Porter Valley treasurer and project leader David Young said: \u201cIt\u2019s a wonderful place for the wildlife and there have been incidences of water voles but they\u2019re not here any more sadly.\n\u201cIn our scheme we want to make it such that the environment can come back.\u201d\nThe project is expected to cost \u00a3370,000 to complete and Friends of Porter Valley are only a few thousand pounds short of their fundraising target.",

        "raw_content": "One of the best ways to buy physical gold today\n[Editor\u2019s note: In today\u2019s Notes from the Field, I want to share an excerpt from our premium intelligence \u2013Sovereign Man: Confidential. We recently spoke with one of the world\u2019s top gold experts. And he shared a specific gold investment that\u2019s trading near historical lows and is one of the best ways to buy gold today, in my mind. I doubt you\u2019ll hear about this anywhere else. Read on for the details\u2026]\nThe beauty, value and heft of a gold coin in your hand is a real pleasure, and it holds real value. I\u2019ve got a fair number of them in my home safe. They\u2019re immediately accessible, valuable and liquid. If I have to, I can quickly turn them into cash.\nThere are two general types of gold coins \u2013 bullion and numismatics.\nBullion coins are the most well-known in the market\u2013 US Eagles, Canadian Maple Leafs, etc. These coins are valued almost exclusively on their gold content.\nFor example, a one-troy-ounce Canadian Maple Leaf gold coin typically sells for very close to the spot price of gold\u2026 you pay a little more for the workmanship that went into creating the coin and a small premium to the dealer for his services.\nBullion coins are usually manufactured annually by the government\u2019s mint. So they\u2019re not considered rare. But they\u2019re the cheapest and most-liquid way to invest in physical gold.\nThen you have numismatic coins \u2014 also known as rare or collectible coins. Examples include:\n\u2022 Pre-1933 $20 or $10 Eagle/Liberty coins\n\u2022 Peace Silver Dollars\n\u2022 British Sovereigns\nLike bullion, numismatics also have value because of their metal content. But the biggest determining factor in their price is their rarity. Unlike with bullion coins, government mints aren\u2019t churning out any more 1933 Indian Head Buffalo (Bison) \u201cHobo\u201d nickels.\nIn addition to rarity, collectible coins are also valued based on their condition, and whether or not they were circulated. Some of the most sought after coins sell for millions of dollars apiece.\nThe ultimate authority on numismatics is my friend, renowned coin expert Van Simmons of David Hall Rare Coins. He literally helped create the standard for grading and pricing collectible coins. In 1985, Van co-founded a company called Professional Coin Grading Service (PCGS) to standardize coin grading based on factors such as luster, color and preservation.\nAnd PCGS has evaluated nearly 40 million coins \u2013 and continues to grade more and more each and every day. So, trust me when I say Van knows a thing or two about collectibles.\nNow, you might not have $20,000, $45,000 or $65,000 to drop on premium collectible coins. But that\u2019s OK because there are lots of deals in the lower-end of the market today.\nRight now, due to the fact that the gold price has been fairly stagnant for the last several years, certain collectibles are selling for incredibly cheap premiums, as low as $50 over spot price of gold.\nThis is a big deal: You\u2019re essentially paying bullion prices for a collectible.\nThink about that: you can buy a rare coin which has TRUE scarcity for nearly the same price as brand-new coins that are churned out year after year. And you\u2019ve essentially got a free call option on the market realizing its rarity value\u2026\nVan says MS 64 $20 St. Gaudens gold pieces are one of the best deals on the market today, selling at historically low premiums over spot. The MS in the description means \u201cMint State,\u201d and corresponds to the numerical grades MS60 through MS-70.\nThese are the highest-quality numismatics, ones that have never been in circulation. A Mint State coin can range from one that is covered with marks (MS-60) to a flawless example (MS-70).\nYou can get these coins for about $1,450 today, with gold trading just above $1,300 an ounce.\nBut consider this\u2026 When gold was $275 an ounce in the late 80\u2019s, these coins sold for $2,000 apiece.\nIn 2011, when the price of gold was around $1800, these coins were selling for about $2,460.\nSo the premium was as high as $1,700 per coin (not including broker fees). Today, that premium is around $100 a coin.\nIf gold prices heat up again and demand increases, the premium for this coin could easily increase back to $300 to $500 above spot. In other words, you\u2019d make money TWO ways \u2013 due to the increase in gold prices and due to the increase in premium.",

        "raw_content": "A Private Rocket Likely Failed in Alaska \u2014 Why Is It Still Considered a Success?\nBy Chelsea Gohd 2018-08-01T20:58:31Z Spaceflight\nThe launch pad at the launch facilities at Pacific Spaceport Complex in Alaska on Kodiak Island. The California-based company Astra Space launched \"Rocket 1\" from this site in July 2018.\n(Image: \u00a9 Alaska Aerospace Corporation)\nA new rocket probably failed soon after launch \u2014 but that isn't necessarily a bad thing.\nOn July 20, the California-based company Astra Space carried out a suborbital launch of its \"Rocket 1\" from the Pacific Spaceport Complex on Kodiak Island in Alaska. The rocket took off in foggy conditions, so there wasn't much to see, but the launch could still be heard, according to local reporter Gabe Stutman. But other than the fact that Rocket 1 launched, no one seems to know what happened next.\nThe Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) said, in a statement to SpaceNews, that the rocket \"experienced a mishap.\" Many have taken this to mean that, at some point after the rocket launched, it failed in some way. But Craig Campbell, president of Alaska Aerospace, which operates the launch site, told SpaceNews that Astra Space is \"very pleased\" with how the launched turned out. So, how can the company be pleased with a failed rocket launch? And what really happened to Rocket 1? [Blastoff! How to See a Rocket Launch In Person This Summer]\nSpace.com spoke with Jonathan McDowell, an astronomer at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics who diligently tracks many of the objects that launch from Earth and orbit it, about this launch and the mysterious case of Rocket 1.\nMcDowell says he thinks that whatever went wrong with Rocket 1 likely happened close to the launch site, based on the word \"mishap\" in the statement from the FAA. McDowell expanded on this, saying that, for example, if \"your second stage doesn't burn as long as it was meant to and you fall short of your target, that's not a mishap, that's an underperformance.\"\nLaunch facilities at Pacific Spaceport Complex in Alaska on Kodiak Island. While we do not know exactly what happened to the secretive launch of \"Rocket 1,\" some think that it likely failed close to the launch site.\n(Image: \u00a9 Alaska Aerospace Corp.)\nThere are a number of things that could have happened to Rocket 1. Obviously, the \"most dramatic way is yeah \u2026 it blew up,\" McDowell said. But, he added, there are many other plausible outcomes \u2014 a rocket's engine can just shut down, leaving the rocket to fall to the Earth (and then blow up); the guidance system can fail, causing the rocket to be detonated remotely before it crashes near people; the nose cone can collapse, causing structural failure. Other possible problems he noted: the rocket can lack thrust, leaving it to fall into the ocean just a couple of miles offshore; and the second stage and the nose cone can both fail to separate. There are a number of explosive and benign ways that a launch can \"fail,\" he said.\nBut \"failure\" isn't necessarily a bad thing, McDowell said. \"Even if you get 10 seconds of propulsion data \u2026 that can still be a very good result \u2026 you can still be legitimately very happy with that.\"So even if the rocket is in the air for only 10 seconds, you can still get a ton of data on how the engine and all the rocket's different systems perform, McDowell said.\nThis data can be instrumental in ensuring your next rocket has fewer issues. Also, McDowell added that, because the Rocket 1 is \"a completely new vehicle, a completely new design, never flown before,\" Astra Space perhaps wasn't even expecting the rocket to land intact. He cited SpaceX's first few launches, all of which \"failed,\" for how these complex rockets usually take a few less-than-perfect tries before a launch is a complete success.\nSo, while we don't know exactly what happened to Rocket 1, it makes sense that Astra Space is still happy with this mysterious Alaska launch because, as McDowell put it, \"all you really want to get is enough data.\"",

        "title": "One on One | Steve Hogan of Florida Citrus Sports - Space Coast Business",
        "raw_content": "One on One | Steve Hogan of Florida Citrus Sports\nSteve Hogan: Florida Citrus Sports Chief Executive Officer\nThe completely rebuilt Florida Citrus Bowl in downtown Orlando, now dubbed Camping World Stadium, was part of the trifecta that helped land the Dr. Phillips Center for Performing Arts and provided a home for Orlando City Soccer. It was a timing and leadership alignment that is transforming Central Florida\u2019s urban center. Fortunately, the region didn\u2019t have to wait long for the ROI to come pouring in. The new venue also has become the host location for three blockbuster sporting events: a season opener between Florida State and Ole Miss, a preseason game featuring the Miami Dolphins and the Atlanta Falcons, and the 2017 NFL Pro Bowl. All this in addition to the New Year\u2019s classics, the Buffalo Wild Wings Citrus Bowl and the Russell Athletic Bowl. Though it took a region to ensure the realization of this monumental project, Steve Hogan has been its most vocal evangelist and a driving force for Orlando as a premier location for world class sporting events.\nEW: The last time we had an in-depth conversation, the stadium that we see today was just a scale model here in your office. What was your biggest surprise in executing a project of this magnitude?\nSH: Once it was approved and we were moving forward with construction, I suppose it was the scale of the project and the compression of time. The credit belongs to the City of Orlando, the program and construction team. There were thousands of people all over the property, working to complete a demolition and rebuild in 10 months; it blows me away that it was even possible. I\u2019m no construction expert, though I know a lot more now than I did then, but I am astonished at what they were able to accomplish, while we continued on with our business.\nEW: It was a blitzkrieg pace; did you ever falter and think, what happens if we don\u2019t meet schedule?\nSH: There were a lot of very anxious nights. We had a hand in the planning and design, but we also had to continue doing business here. It was like, well, tearing down a restaurant and rebuilding it, while continuing to serve customers. For them the design of the stadium was changing, seating arrangements were changing, and we didn\u2019t know how they would react; that was a big question.\nThough we had simulations of what it would be like, we didn\u2019t know what the unique fan experience was going to be. The good news is, everyone was enamored with the process and on board with what the future might hold, but there were so many unanswered questions which we were having to answer as we went.\nEW: If you were asked by a similar city, \u201cHow did you do it?\u201d which I\u2019m sure you willbe, how do you respond?\nSH: Politics are local, so you have to understand the landscape and mood of the local leadership. Needless to say, nothing is more important than transparency, honesty and making a sound business case\u2014that is data and research driven. Also you have to realize that though the vision is all important to you, to other people in the community it may not be important or as important as it is to you. We were moving forward at a time when multiple venues were springing up and they all were significant and had their place, so to be isolated or defensive could have meant certain death to some or to all. It was far better to say, how do we hear from everyone and how do we fit into the larger picture, how do we help everyone win?\nEW: For you personally, what was your greatest challenge?\nSH: It was making the case for the value the project would bring. We are a nonprofit, yet we had to make an argument that normally falls on some owner with very deep pockets. The stadium has always been a tourism draw and we had broad support from the tourist community, with funding from the tourist tax. They understood this was a tourism winner, but like the area resorts and theme parks, we had to make the investment to create a world class venue. The second was during that process, we had to hold on to and build our business; the sports world was watching to see if we would go the way of cities which used to host great events. We wanted to convince the world that we were on the rise, not demise.\nNow instead of us having to make the case, everyone else in the community is making it for us. There was a resounding sentiment of, \u2018They were right, if you build it, they will come.\u2019 The consensus has been that it has outperformed people\u2019s expectations of what is possible. They understand our competitive advantage.\nEW:How big a factor has Orlando City been to your venue?\nSH: We have been part of that incredible story and we hope that hosting their Major League opener and inaugural season will help put Orlando on the map as a destination for soccer fans worldwide. Which we hope means that for events which their new stadium may not have capacity for, there is an opportunity for us. Of course, hosting all those regular season games also helps work out many of the logistical bugs as well.\nThe more you successfully promote and host major events, whether soccer, concerts or collegiate or pro games, the better your chances of being considered for even bigger events like a national championship bowl. We\u2019re in the major neutral site event market. Other franchises in the area being successful helps you succeed.\nEW: How did you land a game like Florida State and Ole Miss?\nSH: There are years of strategy and relationship building behind that. The neutral site season opener is gaining momentum around the country; Atlanta, Dallas and Houston have been the stars. We knew there would only be so many, so we wanted to be the fourth leg of that table. Orlando works for the colleges because Central Florida is a huge collegiate recruitment location and it allows them to get revenue outside the home season ticket schedule. ESPN was the key, as they are a 50-50 partner with Florida Citrus Sports in owning that game. That spreads the risk. We have \u2018Bama and Louisville in 2018, then Florida and Miami in 2019. Now we are working on 2020. Our challenge is consistently making it a major game. Some of it is research or relationships and some of it is just luck.\nEW: For the first time you have a corporate sponsor as well, is that correct?\nSH: Not exactly. The reason the name was changed from the Tangerine Bowl to the Citrus Bowl was because the Florida Department of Citrus was the lead sponsor. We had committed to several million in usage and rights fees over ten years, to take the burden off the taxpayers for the shortfalls the facility was to the city budget. Camping World was the sponsor that helped us arrive, if you will, as a major sports facility.\nEW: How does Lift Orlando and that vision play into your role here?\nSH: If I have any legacy here, that is what I want it to be. When we think about what we are doing in the city, with all the impact a venue like this has and all the people who come to the sporting events, all of those successes will pale in comparison to what Lift is doing. What would it be like if we succeeded valiantly as Florida Citrus Sports, but we didn\u2019t raise the community closest to the stadium? That would be a shame. We can focus all that energy on something bigger. What if the story was the stadium became this beating heart, bringing life into this community? It comes down to, \u201cDo unto others as you would have them do unto you\u201d and \u201cto whom much is given much is required.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "\u201cEach of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful Stewards of God\u2019s Grace in its various forms. \u201d (1 Peter 4:10)\nWhat is Stewardship at The Church of St. Andrew and St. Paul?\nThe word Stewardship comes from the Greek word Oikenomous, which means somebody who manages a household. A person doesn\u2019t own the household but manages it. And stewards in the ancient world were trusted with everything from seeing that the floors were clean, to the finances, to the public face of that household. Joseph is a good biblical example of that.\nStewardship is not another one of the things we have to do. It truly is, to be, who we are. Some of us are not good builders, or good youth workers, or good children\u2019s ministry people. We are not all good visitors. Some of us have good bedside manner and some do not. Many of us can organize a meeting and others of us cannot even organize our own desk. Some of us have good leadership abilities and some of us would prefer to be left completely alone with no one to supervise. God has wonderfully and thoughtfully made us all with a different set of gifts and graces. Praise God!\nWe are all called to be stewards. Every one of us as God\u2019s creation has been given by the Creator dominion over the earth and all that is in it. We are all equally called to be appropriate stewards. It is not something we do. It is who we are.\nIn summary, Each and every day we are called to manage our time as God would have us manage it. It means that we guide the children we have been blessed with in ways that are pleasing to God. It means that we care for the poor and those that are unable to help themselves. It means that we do not spoil the air and soil that God has allowed us to live with. And it means that we spend, save, and give the money that came from God in a way that God would want it done. It is not something we do. It is who we are.\nStewardship in Action at the Church of St. Andrew and St. Paul in 2017\nShort Term Giving",

But there were already new windows so there was no way our landlord was going to pay for them.\n\"When we told Millbrook they said we should foot the bill for the windows, but after a lot of back and forth they finally agreed to sort them out.\nSteven and Caroline Jackson are in dispute over their Kidsgrove home\n\"We are now in dispute with Millbrook over the windows that were replaced. At the moment we say there is an inch-wide gap between the window and the lintels which is now covered up with black tape.\n\"It has been an ongoing battle since June, the council keeps changing what it is saying and we are just in the dark. It's one battle after another. I've had to up my anti-depressants, it has caused stress after stress and increases my pain.\"\nMother-of-one Caroline says it was difficult for Steven during the building work.\nThe 48-year-old said: \"Steven could not get to the toilet so we had to stay out all day and go to the toilet in supermarkets when we were out.\n\"What has happened is unbelievable. It has been seven months since the work started and it's still ongoing and we were told it would be done in three weeks. I wish we never received the grant.\"\nThe builders used black tape to cover the gap at the house on Poplar Drive\nThe council says it is looking into the couple's case 'as a matter of urgency'.\nCouncillor Paul Northcott, cabinet member for planning and growth, said: \u201cStaffordshire Independent Living Services has operated the disabled facilities grant service on behalf of the council since April 1, 2018.\n\u201cAs part of this arrangement, Millbrook Healthcare handles all aspects of home adaptations, including the selection and management of building contractors.\nMonkey dust binge led this vandal to climb onto roof and hurl tiles at police during SIX-HOUR stand-off\n\u201cMr and Mrs Jackson\u2019s grant application was approved before the transfer which meant that a builder, who is known to the council and has done good work in the past, was initially selected from our previous contractor\u2019s list. All of the building work has been supervised by Millbrook.\n\u201cThe council and Millbrook are looking into the issues raised by Mr and Mrs Jackson as a matter of urgency and we are in contact with them to make sure the matter is resolved as soon as possible.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "No Funding No Treatment\nJune 27, 2015 \u2022 Addiction \u2022 Alcoholism \u2022 dependence \u2022 financially \u2022 funding \u2022 hope \u2022 jails \u2022 Medical \u2022 mental health \u2022 Money \u2022 prisons \u2022 recovery \u2022 Substance Abuse \u2022 Treatment\nPeople are suffering and dying because there is no adequate care for substance abuse treatment. Typically, for someone to receive treatment in this country, you either need to pay out of your pocket, have insurance, or go to a facility that is state funded. What if certain individuals don\u2019t have any means to obtain that? The hope becomes much bleaker. Certain states cut out funding because they are unable to receive proper grants from the federal government for the funding, or the state allocates the money to other areas. Now, this is an area of concern, especially for citizens who need much help for his/her chemical dependency problems, which proves that if this problem is ignored, many more individuals will suffer, not just presently, but in the future as well.\nNo Funding, No Treatment\n\u201cNo one is immune from addiction; it afflicts people of all ages, races, classes, and professions.\u201d\nAmericans today tend to believe that people in society live in a time where being insured is of the absolute necessity. Being a person who is uninsured or living in poverty is very difficult to function in society. One of the worst positions to be in is when somebody needs help for personal problems, such as chemical dependency, and are unable to receive adequate care because of their economic status. What happens when the state you reside in doesn\u2019t provide the necessary funding for treatment centers? The state of Illinois has been the target of an ongoing issue in regards to lack of funding for substance abuse. The state allocates funds to different divisions, but ignores the biggest issue, addiction. This issue is very important because it is affecting friends, families, etc. in addition, many individuals who want help are unable to receive care, and many people have died, and suffered due to this issue, and this issue will only get worse if the funds are essentially depleted. By focusing on allocations to different divisions. The state overlooks the deeper problem of addiction. There are options out there such as; 12 step meetings and certain treatment programs that cater to individuals that don\u2019t make enough money. But some of them aren\u2019t feasible for the underprivileged. Politicians and regular citizens seem to have this idea that addiction shouldn\u2019t be funded, and \u201cdrug addicts\u201d should just rot in jail. There is such a stigma attached to addiction, many think it shouldn\u2019t gain that much attention, and there are more important matters should be addressed. However, this type of mindset should be alarming, and addiction shouldn\u2019t be ignored. Addiction isn\u2019t a \u201cchoice\u201d, rather a sickness that overcomes somebody. With the lack of funding for substance abuse treatment, we should focus on providing treatment centers with adequate care to provide for individuals who suffer from addiction.\nAccording to Howe (2014), spokeswomen for the Illinois Alcoholism and Drug Dependence Association (IADDA), the heroin crisis that has transpired to what it is present day was created by neglecting the prevention system and the treatment system. The state of Illinois has had to drastically cut programming due to lack of funding and budget cuts. Common sense seems to dictate if no help is available, other resources should be implemented. A constant fight between treatment centers and the state is quite problematic, and they\u2019ve seen nothing to advance the treatment from the state. With that being said, individuals who suffer from addiction, this becomes the real issue. Though I concede that current budgetary issues become a hindrance, there should be a point of emphasis on helping people who suffer and who have no other means of supporting themselves. The IADDA estimates that from 2009-2011, funding cuts for addiction treatment and prevention have resulted in the loss of services for 27,000 people. From a personal experience, I was denied treatment on multiple occasions because I was either uninsured, or the treatment centers were not state funded. According to Howe (2014), treatment providers haven\u2019t seen a rate increase in almost two decades, and are still being reimbursed at rates from the 1990\u2019s.\nIn terms of spending, jails in the state of Illinois receive significant funding. The state is paying between $23,000-$24,000 a year to keep an individual in a state prison cell for a year, rather than increasing the amount that is destined for treatment. The average course of treatment runs $3,000-$4,000 (Lee, 2014). In fact, 65 percent of the nation\u2019s inmates meet certain medical criteria for substance abuse problems, but only 11 percent received treatment for their addiction (National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse {NCASA} 2014). Essentially, if the inmates were properly diagnosed at one point or another, the state could have saved more money, and allocate the funds to help these individuals. This is why recidivism \u201crefers to ones relapse into criminal behavior, often after the person receives sanctions or undergoes intervention for previous crime,\u201d becomes problematic for the individual.\nIt is often said, if it isn\u2019t broke don\u2019t fix it, in this case it is broke, and it needs to be fixed. The Illinois state-operated hospitals had once more than 35,000 beds in the 1950\u2019s and 1960\u2019s. By 2009, only 1,400 beds in the nine remaining SOHs (Illinois Hospital Association {IHA} 2011). This proves with budget cuts, less people are receiving care for their addiction issues. This also shows the significant drop of state funding over the years. The loss of state operated facilities and private inpatient beds in the past decade, due to recent community mental health agency funding cuts, have contributed significantly to diminish, and in some deplete the pool of mental health resources in many communities (IHA 2011). In almost every part of the state, the person who lacks insurance, especially the single adult male without children, faces closed doors. And, it is this group of persons who are often in our jails and prisons or are homeless. It is this group who does not qualify for Medicaid, or Medicare, and who have been abandoned when the state closes a state operated psychiatric hospital. These are the individuals who have no other resources, essentially depend on the state for its funding. This occurred with me on numerous occasions when I was in need of some help. Because I had no insurance at all, certain treatment centers turned me away very quickly because of my economic status.\nThe substance abuse community has experienced large budget cuts over the past several years. The Division of Alcoholism and Substance Abuse (DASA) lost an additional $7.2 million in FY2011, on top of losses of $23 million in FY2010 , and $55 million in FY2009 (IHA 2011). These cuts have caused many substance abuse providers to shrink or close treatment programs. And this will only get worse as more state funded beds close, and more budget cuts are implemented. \u201cThe Department of Human Services Division of Alcoholism and Substance Abuse estimates Illinois will spend $72 million on substance abuse prevention and treatment this current fiscal year. This amount is down dramatically from what Illinois spent on prevention and treatment in 2009, which was nearly $128 million. In just five years, Illinois has cut spending on treatment and prevention by 44%. A total of $56 million dollars.\u201d (L. Snipes, personal communication, November 1, 2014). At the same time that I believe the state is in some type of financial difficulty. I also believe wholeheartedly that there are always more options in terms of funding substance abuse. Over the course of the next 3 to 5 years, the amount of funding will be decreased even more, essentially causing individuals to have no options for help. With less spending, and people needing more help, this ultimately will lead to a crisis for individuals who have no means to receive adequate care.\nThe federal government cut our Substance Abuse Prevention and Treatment Block Grant funding by a similar amount. So the overall cut to the substance use disorders treatment and prevention field has been well over $100 million. In terms of the State\u2019s overall budget, this is a small amount. But the cuts have been devastating to our field. One implication of the government\u2019s treatment of substance abuse is that it has significant impact on that state of Illinois. Most agencies have cut services, some have shut down, and some are on the brink of closing (L.Snipes, personal communication, November 1, 2014). The Substance Abuse Prevention and Treatment block grant\u2014funded by the federal Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA)\u2014provides funds to all 50 states. It is considered the \u201csafety net\u201d for substance abuse treatment, intended to help those who have no other resources. According to Taylor (2014), In Illinois, the amount of the block grant decreased by over 10 percent in 2013, in part due to sequestration. Some of that cut was restored in 2014, yet last year\u2019s block grant funding was still almost 5 percent below the 2012 level. SAMHSA also disperses discretionary funds to the states, and in 2014, Illinois received $20.9 million for substance abuse prevention and treatment. The previous year, the state received $22.9 million. The year before that, it was $24 million. That\u2019s a 13 percent decrease in just two years. When our states and federal government make budget cuts that reduce or eliminate funding for substance abuse treatment centers, we sometimes fail to see the impact it will cause. It is something that is happening more and more, and it is drawing the attention of tax-paying citizens.\nAccording to Lesser (2014), Illinois Governor Pat Quinn has proposed a \u201cnot recommended\u201d budget to state legislatures. If this budget is approved, funding for substance abuse would be cut by an additional $ 29 million. That means 16,000 fewer people would receive addiction services. Basically Lesser is warning that the proposed solution will only make the matters worse. Among the cuts is funding for prevention programs for youth, and state-run detox centers. While some legislators support the measure, many people are opposed to it. These state-funded treatment programs provide necessary treatment for addicted patients who often aren\u2019t able to get help anywhere else. Community-based treatment centers would be basically eliminated in the state, and Illinois would see a huge increase in drug addicts on the street. \u201cReports say that people are already turning to emergency rooms for treatment instead of trying to get into a detox center, something that will cost tax payers much more in the long run. (\u201cIllinois Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services in Crisis\u201d 2014). Since this is the case, emergency rooms will not turn somebody away, but this will put a strain on the health care system, law enforcement costs, and court system.\nThe Division of Alcoholism and Substance Abuse (DASA) is the state of Illinois single agency to provide treatment services. Treatment centers usually receive grants from DASA, who then receives the money from the federal government, also known as \u201cblock grants\u201d. The Department of Human Services (DHS) allocates money to DASA who then disburse its money to places providing treatment services. \u201cThat\u2019s all about to change, it will transition from a grant, to Medicaid, which Medicaid will disburse it to separate insurance companies\u201d(L. Snipes, personal communication, November 1, 2014). For someone who has insurance, this may seem like a feasible option, but it may not be that easy. The Affordable Care Act requires all citizens to carry health insurance, which doesn\u2019t seem like a bad idea. But guess again. According to Merrion (2013), the rates and prices that go along with having insurance are extremely expensive. Many people won\u2019t be able to afford it, therefore, will have to stick with state funded operations. What happens if that doesn\u2019t exist anymore? Than uninsured patients will have to stick to their own devices and continue to use alcohol and drugs. Essentially this makes the matter worse.\nConversely, if all addicts and alcoholics had a choice in this matter, there wouldn\u2019t be this much of a strain on the state to provide care for its own people. There is speculation and assumptions that addiction is not a disease, and according to Schaler (2002), addiction is a choice and not a disease. Schaler also states that addiction is clearly intended by the individual and that every action is known and he/she knows how much they want to use. In addition, Schaler also states that the addict or alcoholic are always in control of what he or she is doing. The assertions are not only premature, but there is no correlation what so ever to signify that this is indeed credible. The lack of understanding and humiliation this author talks about is downright concerning. If this author assertion on addiction is indeed valid, than the state wouldn\u2019t be obligated to provide the necessary funds for treatment centers and treatment services. If alcoholism and addiction were a choice, all the individual has to do is just say no. When addiction takes control of someone\u2019s life, they lose the choice of saying \u201cno.\u201d\nWhen it comes to the topic of addiction, most of us will readily agree that it is a big issue. Where this agreement usually ends, however, is on the question how much focus should be on this topic. Whereas some are convinced that it\u2019s a waste of money to funda problem that is relative to decision making, others maintain it\u2019s not a matter of choice, it\u2019s a way of life. Funding for substance abuse has been an issue for a while now, and the state of Illinois needs to figure out a \u201cplan b\u201d before it will eliminate most of its funding for treatment. Addiction is only getting worse, and as this persist, adequate care for the underprivileged will become less scarce. Whether we treat addiction as a \u201cchoice\u201d or a disease, it\u2019s still a problem that affects millions of individuals. If money is the issue at hand, start implementing certain legislations to help the less fortunate so he/she can get help. Once the state can achieve this, other states may notice and this can be the start of something great.\nI am Shawn and I am an Alcoholic. Sober date 8/23/12\nHowe, S. M. (2014, August 6).

        "title": "Choosing the Right Local Dentist",
        "raw_content": "When selecting a dentist in Guelph, there are many factors to consider. If you are new to the area, or if you are simply changing dentists, you not only want to find an office that is licensed and certified, you also want to find those offices which are well known and highly trusted in the area. As a patient, you want to find the offices that can do all work, from filling a cavity, to sedation dentistry, if you are one of the many people who have a fear of the dentist. No matter which offices you ultimately visit, these are a few ways you can select the right dentist for you.\nOne option is to ask for local referrals. You can ask friends, co-workers, family, or even visit a local hospital, to get a listing of the best local offices in the area. Whether you are looking for a general dentist, a cosmetic dentist, or any other professional, the more referrals you can get, and the more information you can gather about the many local offices and dentists, the easier it is ultimately going to be for you to find the most qualified and the best local offices for your dental care.\nIf you have children, you want to find a dentist office that has a paediatric dentist on staff. Due to the fact that kids need special care, especially early on, it is a good idea to find out which of the many local dentists in Guelph can cater to this need, and have the right specialists on board to care for your kids if you do have any.\nFor those who need cosmetic work done, from having invisalign done to help straighten your teeth, or having your teeth professionally bleached, it is also important to find out which of the local offices, does cosmetic work on site. Many offices will only provide certain types of care; if you want to visit one local dentist, for everything, you have to make sure the referrals you receive, are geared towards the type of care, and the type of work that you or a family member needs to have completed, when you do go in for an office visit.\nEvery patient is different than the next, and each patient is going to be looking for something different when they are trying to find the best local dentist for oral health and care. So, prior to selecting the offices for your dental care and necessary treatment, you have to compare a few offices and dentists, so you know where to go for the best treatment and work. Additionally, depending on whom the patients are (kids, adults), you want to find an office that can cater to all ages, and all types of oral health. When you take the time to find the best local offices where you live, you are going to be extremely happy with the ones you choose, and with the oral care you and your family receive each visit.",

        "raw_content": "Warriors beat up but ready to host rival Virginia City for homecoming\nWhittell works in the rain at Wednesday's practice in preparation for its homecoming game Friday against Virginia City.\nIt was team photo day Wednesday for athletes at George Whittell High School.\nZEPHYR COVE, Nev. \u2014 It was a big week at George Whittell High School.\nMonday through Thursday featured different dress up days to celebrate homecoming and Wednesday was picture day for athletic teams.\nIn between raindrops, athletes would quickly pose for photos and then find cover from the downpour. The production was eventually moved into the gymnasium.\nThursday night was the annual homecoming bonfire held near the school off of Warrior Way in the Frisbee golf parking lot.\nWith all the activities happening throughout the week, Whittell found time to prepare its shorthanded football team for their most important game of the season against their rival, and nemesis, Virginia City.\n\"Homecoming, it's always about the football game for me, regardless of what's going on during the week,\" said senior Isaiah Womack. \"I'm always thinking about the game. If we lose it spoils homecoming.\"\n\"Hectic,\" said first-year head coach Doug Patton of homecoming week. \"It's very hectic.\"\nThe Warriors are coming off a painful 58-48 loss to Excel Christian in their 1A 8-man West League opener. The loss cost the Warriors more than a game in the standings. They lost one of their top players, Dalton Warswick, for the rest of the season due to a serious injury along with starting offensive lineman Mason Brown.\nWhittell was leading Excel Christian by a couple of touchdowns late in the first half when Warswick, the team's starting middle linebacker and running back, went down.\n\"You can't replace Dalton,\" Patton said. \"But it's gotta be next man up and we've gotta keep working. We're working on a new defense because when you lose Dalton, you can't replace him with two guys.\"\nAfter watching one of their stars go down with injury, the Warriors had a difficult time recovering from the tragedy and gave up a string of touchdowns to fall well behind.\n\"We were playing well in first half,\" Womack said. \"Dalton got hit and is out for the season and from there on, it kinda fell apart. In the second half we couldn't stop them and we couldn't block them. We didn't have Dalton to lead block. It just turned into a really bad game.\"\nBut, as has been the case this season, the Warriors never gave up. Whittell stormed back to make a game of it, scoring three TDs in the final four minutes.\n\"It took us a little bit of time to get our traction back and realize we are still a really good team,\" Patton said. \"We went from being way down and came storming back at the end. But once again, the guys never gave up. We picked up the pieces and made a game out of it.\"\nOver the last four seasons, Whittell or Virginia City has been in charge of the league. The Warriors won the league title in 2015 and the Muckers won it the other three years. The games have been close, except for last year's 44-20 Warriors loss down in the desert.\nWhittell can't afford too many more losses or they're going to need help to reach the postseason.\nThe top two in the five-team league qualify for playoffs and the Warriors (2-3, 0-1 West) already have one loss and have just three more league games. The Muckers (4-1, 0-0 West) are opening their league season against the Warriors.\nDespite the personnel losses, the Warriors feel they can compete.\n\"We lose two starters and now we have to play VC, our rival, for homecoming, I didn't want homecoming to be exactly like this,\" Womack said. \"Playing against them, they are such strong opponents. The last three years we had easier games. But we're trying to stay positive because we know we can get a win, it's just going to be a little harder.\"",

The 2013 \u201cBenchmark Performance for Critical Access Hospitals\u201d study is a trending study of the rural hospital industry. Key findings from the study include:\n\u00b7 Top 100 CAHs perform as well or better at the median overall than the full census of all U.S. general acute care hospitals;\n\u00b7 Top 100 CAHs face the least population-based demand for future healthcare services, while their quality is near the top quartile when compared to all U.S. general acute care hospitals; and,\n\u00b7 Top 100 CAH performance is in the top quartile of all U.S. general acute care hospitals in the financial and cost and charge categories of the study.\n\u201cSmall and rural hospitals play a critical role in providing efficient and effective healthcare that is on par with other larger suburban and urban counterparts,\u201d said John Morrow, executive vice president of iVantage Health Analytics Inc. \u201cRural hospitals have new and difficult demands that are best managed with actionable information.\n\u201cThe Hospital Strength Index reflects the multiple challenges of running a hospital by incorporating the measures on which the industry has worked to gain consensus and standardization.\u201d\nThe Hospital Strength Index ranks all of the nation\u2019s more than 4,400 general acute care hospitals, including more than 1,300 critical access hospitals. The Index is based on eight performance categories measuring 56 different performance metrics. The Index offers hospital executives, trustees and boards of directors an objective way to measure their relative performance internally and among their peers.",

        "raw_content": "The past year has been a lot of struggle and stress for some of us. For me, there hasn\u2019t been any good memories.\nSome of you still struggle with things like not being satisfied with their style or appearance. With this post, I want to give you a bit of motivation and cheer you up and try to make you have more confidence in the things you\u2019re doing.\nI really hope that all of them will come true and I also hope that you all will work hard for these dreams and goals.\nWell then, let\u2019s begin!\n\u201dI love that style and I wish I could wear something like that, but I lack confidence\u2026\u201d\nLike Walt Disney said, stop talking and just DO and WEAR the clothes YOU WANT to wear.\n\u201cWhat are the others going to think about me?\u201d\nI\u2019m like that too, but don\u2019t you sometimes question yourself why you actually care?\nI do and I\u2019m tired of caring too much about what others think. It\u2019s hard to just stop worrying and caring about their opinions from one day to the other, but guess what\nI really do. You can do it. The next time you go shopping, buy the things you like even when they\u2019re crazy and wear them on the streets with confidence. People who wear their clothes with confidence are so much more attractive and charming than people who are unsure about their feelings towards their outfit.\nMost of you probably know GD, right?\nNot many people would wear the outfits he has, but he still is a fashion icon and he looks good while wearing them.\nIt\u2019s his confidence and mindset. He feels comfortable in these clothes and that shows through.\nSo if you really want to wear the clothes you want, then just do it.\nThis quote is like the saying \u201cNo one will love you until you love yourself\u201d. I can\u2019t tell you if it\u2019s true with the love part, but when you have confidence in yourself the others around you will notice.\nHave you ever seen a person on the street and you\u2019re like \u201cWow, I really love her style.\u201d I think that happened to some of us already. I\u2019m the kind of person to sometimes go up to them and tell them my thoughts about their outfit and it\u2019s always really cute to see the person smile.\nMost of them say, that they just wear the clothes they want and feel comfortable in and when people tell them that they look good then that\u2019s a cool plus.\nMaybe some people have already had thoughts like that when they saw your outfit but were to shy to tell you.\nWear the clothes you like and feel comfortable in and you will most likely feel a difference after a while.\nFake it until you make it! Act as if you had all the confidence you require until it becomes your reality.\nWell, there\u2019s not much to say about this quote. Just stop caring what the others think.\n\u201dYou don\u2019t need to care about what the others think. You\u2019re confident in yourself and that\u2019s it. Screw the others.\u201d\nBecause in the end, you\u2019re the one who\u2019s wearing the clothes or who\u2019s doing this or that. In the end, they all forget their judging thoughts after a few minutes or the next day and don\u2019t even remember what you wore or what you did.\nBe yourself and love yourself for who you are.\nRight now, I really hope that this could motivate and cheer some of you up. While writing this, I actually found out that I\u2019m not that good at writing inspirational blogs than I would like to be.\nThank you to everyone who read this blog and I really really wish you good luck in 2018.\nLet\u2019s start working hard on our goals and dreams.\nPrevious Post [Review] Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo\nNext Post Having Celiac Disease In South Korea",

        "raw_content": "Minimum Wage Will Be Increasing in These States This Week\nAbout 50% of minimum wage workers are 16-24 years-old.\nUnion workers and supporters participate in a \"Fight for $15\" wage protest at Los Angeles International Airport in Los Angeles, California, November 29, 2016.Workers from fast-food chains, airports and other service industries rallied in US cities as part of a nationwide day of disruption to demand union rights and a minimum wage of $15 an hour. Workers joining in included cabin cleaners, luggage handlers and other staff at O'Hare, Los Angeles and Fort Lauderdale airports. However, flights were not expected to be disrupted. / AFP / Robyn Beck (Photo credit should read ROBYN BECK/AFP/Getty Images)AFP/Getty Images\nThis year, 4.3 million people in America will be getting a pay raise, according to the Economic Policy Institute (EPI).\nPeople in 19 states and 23 cities and counties will see their paychecks increase in 2017, BuzzFeed reports, thanks in part to the highly vocal protests of activists and minimum-wage workers.\nThe largest minimum wage increases were sparked by either state legislative work or a series of ballot initiatives passed by voters on election day, that were made possible after organizers collected thousands of signatures, BuzzFeed notes.\nIt was this signature gathering and legislative grunt work that made it possible for states like Arizona to increase minimum wage by 24%, BuzzFeed states. The largest raises this year happened in Arizona (a $1.95 increase), and in Washington state (a $1.53 increase), according to the EPI, but people are getting raises by even larger margins on the local level.\nFor example, on New Year's Day, Seattle became the first large metropolitan city in the country with a $15 base wage, BuzzFeed reported.\nToday, the federal minimum wage for workers who earn tips, such as servers, is only $2.13 per hour, while it's $7.25 for basic employees, according to The Department of Labor.\nAnd these numbers matter to teens a lot. Pew Research reports that those making the federal minimum of $7.25 or below are disproportionately young: 50.4% of these workers are ages 16 to 24 and 24% are ages 16 to 19.\nSo, break out the party streamers and the e-banking app. The 2017 wage increases may just be giving you a leg up.\nRelated: This Huge Mass Retailer Is Raising Its Minimum Wage\nKeywordsminimum wagefight for fifteen",

        "raw_content": "Texas 4000 riders on Chicago approach\nWritten by Jason Maholy\nTwenty-four college students who rode their bicycles out of Austin, Texas, earlier this month are scheduled to pedal into Palos Heights Saturday evening as they continue on a 4,500-mile trek to America\u2019s Last Frontier.\nThe University of Texas students comprise the Ozark Route contingent of the Livestrong Texas 4000, a 4,500-mile bike ride from the capital of the Lone Star State to Anchorage, Aka. The cyclists hit the road June 1, and will upon hitting the Chicago area have completed roughly one-fifth of their journey, and are planning a two-day respite in the largest city through which they will pass along the way.\nTina Beigelbeck (right), 22, of Petaluma, Calif., is a University of Texas student participating in the Livestrong Texas 4000, a bike ride from Austin, Texas, to Anchorage, Alaska. The 24 riders on the 4000\u2019s Ozark Route will be in Palos Heights Saturday, June 22, to begin a three-day stay in the Chicago area.\n\u201cIt\u2019s the only place we\u2019re taking a two-day break,\u201d said Tina Beigelbeck, a resident of Petaluma, Calif., the director of the Ozark Route team.\nThe team anticipates arriving in Palos Heights between 6:30 and 7 p.m. Saturday after a 120-mile ride from Champaign. The students will be staying with Beigelbeck\u2019s aunt, Palos Heights resident Ann Engelmann, who has planned taste of Chicago feast featuring deep-dish pizza, and Italian beef and sausage. Engelmann plans to meet the team in Gilmore and ride the 75 miles into Palos.\nBeigelbeck is excited about coming to the Chicago area, where she spent a lot of time as a youth and which she considers a sort of second home. The extended stay in Chicago, where they will stay in a married couple\u2019s apartment Sunday, will allow the riders to see the city from more than just their bicycle seats.\nChicago will serve as a sort of landmark for the group. The riders will have the chance to catch their collective breath and rest their bodies before heading into the next phase of the ride, which will include stops in Milwaukee, Madison and Minneapolis before heading into Canada. The 3,500 miles between here and Anchorage will traverse two nations, some of North America\u2019s highest mountains, and hundreds of miles of untouched wilderness inhabited by bears.\nBeigelbeck and her fellow riders hit the trail June 1 boosted by adrenaline and the excitement of their journey finally being underway. The students had trained for 18 months, logging a minimum of 1,500 miles to get themselves into peak physical condition for the intercontinental excursion; but it did not take long for them to understand how grueling riding 4,600 miles in would actually be.\n\u201cI realized on Day 2 that nothing I could have done would have prepared me for this,\u201d Beigelbeck said.\nThe students burn an estimated 10,000 daily while averaging between seven and 10 hours, and 75 and 85 miles each day, with the longest leg thus far being a 98-mile ascent into the Ozark Mountains in northwest Arkansas. The cyclists, exhausted after battling the hilly terrain and climbing more than 1,000 feet, spent that night camping in a farmer\u2019s field alongside goats and an electrified fence.\nBeigelbeck referred to the opportunity to ride in the Texas 4000 as \u201ca gift,\u201d and said the experience is humbling, and demanding on the body and psyche. More than a few team members, including Beigelbeck, have cried on their bikes from the toll the challenge is placing on every aspect of their being, she acknowledged. Each participant rests once every 10 days, and can take a day off whenever necessary to rest or recuperate. Beigelbeck was resting Monday when she called from the team\u2019s van.\n\u201cToday it\u2019s my knees and yesterday it was my elbows,\u201d she said of the physical aches and pains she has recently dealt with. \u201cRiding a bike for seven to 10 hours every single day, it definitely takes a toll on your body.\n\u201cEmotionally, mentally, physically \u2013 it\u2019s a metaphor for battling cancer,\u201d she continued as she articulated just how exhausting of an endeavor the ride has been. \u201cWhat you do when you hit rock bottom, that really defines you and your spirit.\u201d\nThrough the struggle, Beigelbeck can feel her body growing stronger as it is hardened by the road; and while being drained physically and emotionally, the riders are refueling with the generosity of people who are complete strangers to most of them. The team has been staying each night with hosts \u2013 a farmer near Eureka Springs, Ark., a graduate student at the University of Missouri-Rolla \u2014 who provide them a place to sleep and often feed them. Riders have also benefitted from the kindness of people they have met along the way.\n\u201cWe\u2019ve had people that just hand us $10 bills and say, \u2018God bless,\u201d she said.\nEach Texas 4000 participant had to raise a minimum of $4,500 that will go toward cancer research, but the students have more to offer than just the donations they procure.\n\u201cWhat we have to offer is our youth and our bodies, to be able to do this ride across the continent,\u201d Beigelbeck said.",

        "raw_content": "What about us? M40 group shouldn\u2019t be left out of homeownership incentives, says HBA\nPETALING JAYA (Jan 31): With so much focus on easing homeownership for the B40 (bottom 40% income group) the National House Buyers\u2019 Association (HBA) has reminded the government not to forget about the needs of the M40 (middle 40% income group).\nWhile it lauded the recent launch of Bank Negara Malaysia\u2019s RM1 billion Fund for Affordable Homes for the B40 group, HBA said the AHF could be extended to include properties that cost up to RM300,000 and to increase the monthly household income eligibility to RM5,000 per month.\n\u201cDue to the rising cost of living, even the M40 find it very challenging to buy their dream homes and is in need of some form of assistance,\u201d said HBA secretary general Datuk Chang Kim Loong in a statement today.\nHe added that the same conditions for the Fund for Affordable Homes can be imposed, such as limiting the scheme to only first-time homebuyers and no resale of the property for the first 10 years after the last loan disbursement.\nAccording to Chang, the key feature of the Fund for Affordable Homes is the low interest rate of up to 3.5% which is expected to lower the monthly housing instalment by 23% compared with the available financing options in the market.\nFund for Affordable Homes participants can also seek downpayment support where the sum will be made as part of the financing sought, meaning a 100% loan subject to the individual participating bank\u2019s assessment.\nHBA also lauded the government\u2019s move to have participants attend a mandatory financial education \u2014 Rumahku, organised by the Credit Counselling and Debt Management Agency (AKPK) as this could help to equip them with the knowledge of personal financial management skills.\n\u201cForeclosures can devastate a family\u2019s economic and social standing, leaving them poorer instead. By having an education programme to educate borrowers on how much they can borrow, and their financial obligations and responsibilities, the potential risk of these borrowers defaulting on their loan obligations is reduced.\n\u201cWe recommend that a similar programme \u2014 Homeownership Education Programmes be set up to raise overall financial literacy as a method to prepare low-medium income households to take on the responsibilities of owning a home,\u201d he added.\nMeanwhile, he said government intervention in the property market is essential to balance current market demand and supply mismatch and to ensure every homebuyer could own a shelter within his/her affordability.\nMost economists believe that Government intervention is not required as a \u201cfree market economy\u201d can regulate itself, but Chang opined that this argument is only true if buyers and sellers have \u201cequal bargaining power\u201d.\n\u201cWhen it comes to buying a property, the Developers or Sellers have a bigger bargaining power as land is a limited resource and buyers do not have many other options for the same location. Hence, leaving it entirely to the free market has resulted in the current situation where the median property price is now beyond the reach of the majority of the Rakyat,\u201d he said, citing government intervention such as the Fund for Affordable Homes.",

        "raw_content": "Inclusion: The Key to Global Growth\nThis week marks the start of the 2018 World Economic Forum. Every year the world leaders and multinational CEOs descend on the tiny Swiss Village of Davos to put the world to rights. Some argue that is an opportunity for the rich, and sometimes famous, to exercise their political and economic might, proclaiming to the world how they are making their nations\u2019 citizens better off year on year.\nAside from the wining and dining that the rich elite indulge in during the course of the week, the forum does, of course, have serious implications. Primarily it acts as an opportunity to discuss the current performance of the global economy, and how political leaders and businessmen and woman can tackle the many pressing challenges that the global economy faces.\nGoing into this year\u2019s forum, the overall economic picture seems rather fine and dandy. Stock markets around the world are hitting record highs, business optimism is generally positive, and the global economic growth forecast has been revised up to 3.9% by the World Bank. However, whilst the global economic outlook appears positive, one should be cautious in gazing too much through rose-tinted glasses. Things may be on the up, but there are grave concerns that the current pace of economic growth may merely be painting over the cracks in the global economy. Christine Lagarde, the chief of the IMF, has indeed alluded to such cracks, stating that: \u201cwe should be encouraged by the strength in growth but we should not be satisfied, there are too many people being left out the recovery.\u201d Her point seems to be proven by the fact that last year one fifth of emerging and developing economies saw their per capita income (the average amount of money a person takes home) decline. This speaks volumes of the current economic outlook. The majority of the world appears to be getting better off, but this should not detract attention away from a large bulk of the world population who continue to struggle day-in-day out, battling to obtain the basic means of subsistence.\nThis week in Davos, the elite will try to convince us that the world is a far richer, and more financially stable place than it was in the immediate aftermath of the financial crisis. In reality, however, there some grave economic challenges that the world must seek to overcome if we can claim that economic growth is an inclusive phenomenon.\n[Image: World Economic Forum]\nPosted in BusinessTagged 2018, CEO's, Christine Lagarde, Davos, donald trump, Economic Outlook, Financial Stability, Matthew Brown, Stock Markets, World Economic Forum, World Leaders\nThe Carillion Crows Are Circling: Is Outsourcing Dead?\nIs the Hyperloop the future of travel?",

        "raw_content": "Big Issue founder says begging is bad\nCharities for the homeless reacted angrily yesterday after the founder of the Big Issue argued that anti-begging and anti-vagrancy laws should be used to remove people from the streets.\nJohn Bird, who also suggests that giving money to beggars does nothing to help them, made the controversial comments in a pamphlet published today by the rightwing thinktank Politeia.\n\"Why do schemes to help the homeless invariably flop, leaving them in the cold outdoors? ... The homeless remain out of doors because they are allowed to remain there,\" writes Mr Bird, who was himself a beggar for several years and who founded the Big Issue magazine to give homeless people a way of earning a living.\n\"The laws we have to stop street living are not enforced.\"\nBut he adds: \"We cannot enforce the laws unless we make sure there is provision in place, an alternative to begging and street living ... At the moment there is not enough suitable accommodation.\"\nYesterday he urged people to campaign for better services for homeless people instead of taking the \"soft and damaging option\" of giving them money, describing the terrible conditions and lack of support which existed in much temporary accommodation.\n\"I have never known anyone whose life was improved by begging and I think we're avoiding our social responsibility and leaving people on the streets to die or become seriously ill,\" Mr Bird said yesterday. He described witnessing a 17-year-old girl \"become a very ill-looking 50-year-old\" in just five years.\nHe argued that most people on the streets were not capable of looking after themselves because they had drink, drug or mental health problems.\n\"There's a kind of distortion of liberalism which says that we live in a democracy and people should be able to do what they want. That's not true if you're not playing with a full hand,\" he said.\nDespite his insistence that provision should come before coercion, campaigners argue that his comments put the wrong emphasis on the problems and will be picked up by politicians seeking to take a harsher line on homelessness.\n\"It's a hypothetical issue because we are light years away from having enough services for people,\" said Shaks Ghosh, chief executive of Crisis, whose winter shelters will welcome around 900 people between today and the new year.\n\"He's completely right in saying we need to put more money into services ... [But] until homeless people have real choices the rights debate is nonsense.\"\nShe added: \"I don't believe that coercion works; you have to build trust with people to engage them. Every time you use coercive measures you destroy their trust and self-respect that little bit more.\n\"John Bird tends to describe people as druggies and people with mental health problems ... It would be nice to see him talking about people's huge potential rather than taking the attitude that they can't think for themselves. What he's saying is incredibly negative.\"",

        "raw_content": "Since the release of their last CD, \u201cInto Your Heart\u201d Hothouse Flowers have been playing steadily around Ireland, America, Great Britain, Japan and Europe. Their shows last between two and three hours depending on the level of fever in the room. Most recently their sound has been enhanced and reinvigorated by the return of Peter O\u2019Toole on bass, bouzouki and vocals. Drumming with the band these last ten years is Dave Clarke. Dave has been a drummer in Dublin since the beginning. His commitment to the beat is mesmerizing. His style has been a force in the direction of Hothouse Flowers today. \u201cI have had to find levels in my voice I never knew I had\u201d \u2013 \u00d3 Maonla\u00ed on playing with Clarke.\nThere is an unpredictable energy in the band that harkens back to the \u201cRisk\u201d days. They call upon their grand repertoire to create a show that is unique to the time and place. No two shows are the same. Improvisation can come at any point and allow the men express their brightest and their darkest influences. \u201cRock and Roll is not about safety or politeness, it is not about perfection either. It is expression and it is spirit.\u201d Humour is also never far from a Hothouse Flowers night. They do not take themselves seriously however there is no mistaking the musical integrity among them as they open up to each other in musical dialogue.\nKnown for their unique bran of rock that\u2019s influenced by soul, gospel and traditional music, the band\u2019s lead singer Liam \u00d3 Maonlai describes them like this: \u201cAs musicians we have a duty to imagine and manifest something of the possibilities that live in our collective imagination. Hothouse Flowers is a rock and roll band but that band is a collective of voices from a time and place. Fiachna, Liam and Peter are traditional musicians. This allows for moments of ancestral connection. What was a second before a Doors-like workout, becomes an earnest and a timeless offering to the memory of Curracha\u00ed na Tra B\u00e1ine. A song inherited by Fiachna describing the blow inflicted upon a community and a family due to drowning. This moment and moments like these set the Flowers apart from almost any other band of their time and trade. They are carriers of Culture and all of what that entails.\nHothouse Flowers came out of tough times. They played the streets and brought the streets to the stages of the world. Individually Fiachna and Liam are enjoying a broadening of their horizons. Fiachna has been producing and presenting programmes for radio and TV. Liam has been collaborating with the Fabulous Beast Dance Theatre Company. Still Hothouse Flowers has not yet fulfilled her destiny. The possibilities are endless. The will is there.

Things were more complex for David Matthews, who in 1977 moved from suburban DC to Baltimore, a rigidly segregated city in which\nDavid, half black and half white, found no natural crowd. Twenty minutes after being dropped off at school, he was besieged by a pack of classmates who demanded that he explain himself. Nonplussed, he said nothing, \u201cinflaming them with a torturous game of racial keep-away.\u201d\nThirty years later, Matthews has dispensed with such reticence. In his kinetic and searching memoir Ace of Spades, he confronts the identity questions that bedeviled him in his youth, telling his story with incisive intelligence and often hilarious irreverence. This unusual combination distinguishes Matthews\u2019s memoir from others to which it will likely be compared, most notably James McBride\u2019s bestseller The Color of Water, which shares its subject matter but not its spirit. McBride, like Matthews, was born to a black father and a white Jewish mother but reared solely by the parent whom he phenotypically resembled least. Both writers describe the contradictions of growing up in a rough-and-tumble city as nerdy types who had a few feckless flirtations with crime but preferred books. Both memoirs are, in part, paeans to the authors\u2019 respective single parents. For all their similarities, however, I can\u2019t seem to remember the part in The Color of Water when McBride humps a lubricated foam mattress or stuffs his shorts with hairnets before gym class to create the illusion of pubic hair. Nor do I recall any anecdote about becoming enraged at a Jewish classmate for crying during a Holocaust video, or one in which he gets mugged and relishes calling the perpetrators \u201cniggers\u201d in front of his black parent. Probably because McBride didn\u2019t go there, as most of us wouldn\u2019t.\nMatthews, who recounts all of the above, goes for broke, punctuating his narrative with a series of audacious anecdotes. He\u2019s not merely telling it like it is; he\u2019s testing us: Each outrageous self-revelation seems to dare us to rescind the sympathy he has won elsewhere. But Matthews recognizes that readers who aren\u2019t alienated by his candor will respect him all the more for it.\nOr maybe he just likes telling stories. Matthews is a natural at it, with a gift for simile and an expert comic timing that paces even\u2013or perhaps especially\u2013the book\u2019s most freighted moments. Consider, for example, the continuation of the are-you-black-or-white grilling he\u2019s subjected to during his entree into the Baltimore public school system:\nAs the mob, with me as the cynosure, reached our first-period class, they resorted to a subtler though no less politic tack:\nWhat kind of music\u2026you like?\nEven though I (marginally) enjoyed the Jackson Five, that admission might provide partisan ammo to the students most consumed with what I was, so in a panic I threw out names of performers my grandmother liked. That\u2019s how fucked up racism is. What else on earth could have motivated a young boy, first hour in a new school, to throw away any chance at acceptance\u2013forget about cool, we\u2019re talking basic Lord of the Flies do-we-eat-this-kid-or-not survival\u2013\u00adwith this reply: Beverly Sills.\nMatthews\u2019s comic sensibility leavens Ace of Spades but does not make it light. Some of the facts of his life are irrefutably grim. His mother, Robin, an appealing but mentally ill woman from an Orthodox Jewish family, abandoned him and his father, a radical black journalist named Ralph Matthews Jr., several months after giving birth. They never heard from her again. Growing up, Matthews neither asked for nor was offered any information about his mother, insuring that she\u2013and, by extension, the white world\u2013would become symbolic of all that he wanted and all that his actual (black) life could not provide.\nCompounding the absence of little David\u2019s mother is the presence of an evil stepmother: Karen, a blond, blue-eyed \u201cwigger when there was no such word,\u201d who \u201cpeppered her speech with that seventies sine qua non noun motherfucker, as in, Look, motherfucker, which she uttered with a regularity most reserve for umm, or so.\u201d Karen beats David, but eventually, mercifully, David\u2019s father gets wise to her abuse, so father and son pack up and head for Baltimore. They move into David\u2019s grandmother\u2019s apartment in a senior citizens\u2019 home, a \u201cwonderland of morbid prophylaxes,\u201d where David is nurtured by his loving grandmother and embarks on a romance with television (\u201cthere are worse habits,\u201d he reasons in retrospect, \u201clike Islam or karaoke\u201d). But David\u2019s retreat into this ersatz womb is short-lived, and soon he\u2019s forced to confront the city outside: a poor, \u201croiling black ghetto.\u201d Baltimore\u2013now that the frail, pale boy must make his way around in it\u2013becomes frankly terrifying: \u201cMy earliest years in the idylls of suburbia had been spent in color-blind adoration of my black father, my brother Elijah, my ashy friends with puffy Afros, but now things were different. This was the city, and these were niggers.\u201d\nDavid, from his first day of school on, begins to pass\u2013initially as white and then, more creatively, as a Jew. (There are a couple of priceless moments when, under pressure to explain his swarthiness, he tells his Jewish friends\u2019 parents that he\u2019s half-Palestinian.) Matthews neither defends nor disavows his passing, although he takes the occasional dig at himself for siding with the spineless:\nThe teachers (black and white) had a brusque, dismissive way of dealing with the black kids, ignoring their raised hands as well as their insolent stares. The tacit suggestion to these kids was that their futures had already been decided for them. The teachers, like me, were not made of much, and just wanted to bet on the white steed of Caucasia.\nBut this is no tragic mulatto story. Mild self-abasement aside, Matthews does not present his passing as some failure of character. Rather, Baltimore shocks him into consciousness of just how bad blacks have it compared with whites, and the boy negates his blackness to spare himself some of the misery: \u201cLife for me was not a war between black and white, or rich and poor, it was a life sentence that could be commuted only by whiteness, real or imagined.\u201d\nJames Baldwin observed in Nobody Knows My Name that the question of color can operate \u201cto hide the graver questions of the self.\u201d Matthews, who until adulthood knew virtually nothing about his mother other than that she was white and had abandoned him, grew up pained by questions of who he was and where he came from. Displacing that hurt and anger onto his father\u2013who is not merely black but an unflagging civil rights activist, a friend of Baldwin, Malcolm X and Stokely Carmichael\u2013Matthews acts out by defining himself against him. Not jazz, but John Lennon. Not black, but white. Matthews\u2019s ability to make connections between his mother, his father and his rejection of blackness\u2013without ever minimizing the day-to-day, objective racism that simply made it easier to be white\u2013is a great achievement.\nIt also makes Matthews\u2019s lack of insight into another realm, his relationship with women, so conspicuous and disappointing. This wouldn\u2019t be such a problem if sex and sexuality weren\u2019t omnipresent in Ace of Spades, but at times the book recalls nothing so much as Portnoy\u2019s Complaint, our protagonist being nearly as preoccupied with his own \u201cbattered battering ram of freedom\u201d as Portnoy was with his.\nMatthews\u2013who describes not only his first orgasm (a nocturnal emission while his grandmother slept beside him) but his first \u201cbucking orgasm,\u201d his adolescent innovation of masturbating to fuzzy cable and his regimen of self-stimulation while studying for the GED\u2013wins the prize for the most literal coming-of-age story. On autoerotica Matthews is fine, and funny; the trouble is when he writes about actual women to whom he has some sexual connection. Take, for example, his account of losing his virginity:\nWhen she consents to sleep with me that spring before going off to some risible state college in the Midwest, I fuck her with a condom, whose wrapped center, moments before, and unseen by her, I have pierced with a fine sewing needle. You always remember your first.\nWith that, the chapter ends. A few pages into the next, Matthews describes a fantasy of raping a 10-year-old girl. To be fair, some context: Before sleeping with his first lover, Matthews had a frightening, racist encounter with her two brothers; he is presumably taking his revenge, Eldridge Cleaver-style, on the young lady. As for the child he imagines violating, she\u2019s just called him a nigger. What\u2019s disturbing is not Matthews\u2019s disclosure of misogynistic impulses and actions; it\u2019s his failure to examine them\u2013not merely their immediate provocations but the experiences in which they might be rooted. We\u2019re left to draw our own conclusions, which is not so difficult: In addition to his absent mother and abusive stepmother, Matthews, a self-described \u201ceunuch\u201d during adolescence, was consistently rejected by women until young adulthood. But in a memoir the onus is on the writer to make these connections, and Matthews doesn\u2019t.\nIf there is another obstacle in our relationship with Matthews as a narrator, it\u2019s that he has spent too many nights spooning the thesaurus. Without question, he is an excellent writer: fluent, robust and with a distinct voice. In this, too, Matthews echoes Philip Roth, with a knack for that appealing admixture of erudition and vulgarity, the high and the low. Yet his language is often unnecessarily obscure\u2013perhaps his stepmother was an \u201cagrestic, toothless ex-harridan,\u201d but perhaps he could find a more accessible way to describe her, too. In these moments, Matthews\u2019s apparent concern that we admire his writing interferes with his ability to make himself known\u2013the chief requirement of his chosen genre. Again, we can speculate about where this comes from: Ace of Spades makes clear the many ways in which Matthews\u2019s identity, including his intellect, was stigmatized when he was younger. But whatever the cause, the effect is alienating, and Matthews comes off as less a pretentious writer than an insecure one.\nWhat redeems these shortcomings is Matthews\u2019s moving portrait of his father, to whom he dedicates the book. From the beginning of Ace of Spades, Matthews is unreserved in his appreciation of his father\u2019s many facets\u2013his passion for justice, his humility, his way with words, his world-weariness, his affection for his son, filtered though it may be through the lens of \u201ccool.\u201d Nevertheless, David\u2019s willingness to be mistaken for white was a rejection of his father (albeit one Ralph understood and, implicitly, forgave). By the end of the book, Matthews is in his 30s and living in New York City; after oscillating between cross-burning cracker and black militant over the course of his life, he describes finally settling into himself. Adulthood also brings about a new dimension in Matthews\u2019s relationship with his father\u2013the ability to talk about emotionally charged subjects once avoided, like his mother. The impression is of Matthews moving toward becoming whole. It\u2019s a process that Ace of Spades not only chronicles but seems to have made possible.\nKate LevinKate Levin is a writer in Brooklyn.

        "title": "Moore Disputes Latest Accusations As \"All About Politics\"",
        "raw_content": "Moore Disputes Latest Accusations As \"All About Politics\"\n\u201cI can tell you without hesitation, this is absolutely false,\u201d Alabama U.S. Senate candidate Judge Roy Moore (shown) responded to the latest woman to come forward, accusing him of sexually assaulting her when she was 16 years old and Moore was an assistant district attorney in Etowah County, Alabama.\nThe accuser, Beverly Young Nelson, was accompanied by high-profile lawyer Gloria Allred during a news conference in New York. She claimed that Moore offered her a ride home from work from her job at a local restaurant \u2014 Olde Hickory House \u2014 in Gadsden, Alabama, about 40 years ago. Gadsden is about 50 miles northeast of Birmingham.\nNelson said she was waiting for her boyfriend to pick her up, but she explained that she \u201ctrusted\u201d Moore \u201cbecause he was a district attorney.\u201d According to Nelson, she got in his car and he drove behind the restaurant, parked, and then groped her, and even attempted to force her head into his crotch.\n\u201cI thought he was going to rape me,\u201d Nelson said, but instead, \u201cat some point, he gave up.\u201d\nIf true, these are serious charges. In response, Moore claimed, \u201cI never did what she said I did. I don\u2019t even know the woman. I don\u2019t know anything about her. I don\u2019t even know where the restaurant is or was,\u201d adding, \u201cthis is a political maneuver and has nothing to do with reality. It\u2019s all about politics.\u201d\nIt certainly has great political ramifications. Opposition to Moore by the Democrats in Alabama has been joined by opposition from establishment Republicans in Washington, D.C. House Speaker Paul Ryan and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell have said that they believe the various women who have made charges against Moore, and that Moore should \u201cstep aside.\u201d Moore retorts that it is McConnell who should step down. \u201cApparently Mitch McConnell and the establishment G.O.P. would rather elect a radical pro-abortion Democrat than a conservative Christian,\u201d Moore wrote in a recent fund-raising e-mail.\nD.C. Republicans are reportedly concerned that Moore\u2019s continued candidacy could leave them open to Democrat charges that the Republicans are somehow soft on child molesters. Among the solutions that Republicans are rumored to be considering is either a write-in campaign for Attorney General Jeff Sessions or for him to be appointed to his former seat should Moore emerge victorious, only to be summarily removed from office by the Senate.\nEither scenario also has its dangers for Republicans. A write-in campaign could simply hand the election over to the Democrats. Alabama State Senator Phil Williams warns that unseating Moore after his election \u201cwill create a backlash the likes of which the party has never seen before.\u201d\nMoore's supporters are striking back. John Rogers, with Moore\u2019s campaign, called Allred a \u201csensationalist lawyer\u201d who is leading a \u201cwitch hunt, and she is only around to create a spectacle.\u201d Rogers noted, \u201cAllred was the attorney who claims credit for giving us Roe v. Wade which has resulted in the murder of tens of millions of unborn babies.\u201d\nPerhaps the most interesting defense of Moore, in this specific case, comes from author and journalist Thomas Wictor. As reported in the Gateway Pundit, Wictor is challenging the veracity of Nelson\u2019s high-school yearbook evidence. Nelson offered as proof of a relationship with Moore that he allegedly signed her yearbook, referencing \u201cOlde Hickory House\u201d and \u201cChristmas 1977.\u201d Wictor asserted in a tweet, \u201cThe sevens in 1977 to the right of \u201cChristmas,\u201d are very different from the sevens in the date (12-22-77) above \u201cOlde Hickory House.\u201d Wictor added, \u201cLook at the two versions of the number 7,\u201d arguing that \u201c12-22-77\u201d and \u201cOlde Hickory House\u201d were written by a different person.\u201d Finally, Wictor wrote, \u201cThe inflection of the \u201cY\u201d is more pronounced in Moore\u2019s signature as Chief Justice. The \u201cR\u201d is noticeably longer in the signature of the Chief Justice, as well.\u201d\nNeither Wictor nor the Gateway Pundit offer any qualifications of Wictor as an expert on analyzing handwriting.\nThere are questions about Nelson\u2019s story \u2014 questions that do not necessarily discredit her testimony, but do bear further scrutiny. If Moore did indeed sign her yearbook, did that occur before or after the alleged incident outside the restaurant? If before, that would indicate the two already knew each other, which leads one to ask, how did they know each other, and how well? If after, then why would she ask, or allow, Moore, if he did what he was accused of, to sign her yearbook?\nSecondly, if she was expecting her boyfriend to pick her up soon, then why did she take up Moore's offer to drive her home, even if she felt she could trust him? Why would she not wait for her boyfriend? Simply saying that she trusted Moore, because he was a \u201cdistrict attorney,\u201d certainly indicates some prior relationship between the two.\nAdditionally, Moore was not a \u201cdistrict attorney,\u201d but rather an assistant. This is, however, not a significant difference, and Nelson\u2019s story should not be discounted simply because of that mistake. People can understandably forget such details after 40 years. It is also possible that Moore did know the woman 40 years ago, and has simply forgotten her. But one would think Moore would remember such an incident as Nelson has described.\nThe Roy Moore case presents a fair-minded person with a problem. On one hand, no decent person wants any young woman to have to endure the advances of a predator. On the other hand, no decent person wants a man to be falsely accused of such horrific acts. We know that there are those who are more than willing to lie to destroy the political ambitions of an innocent person, and we know that there are those who are just as willing to lie to save the political ambitions of a guilty person.\nHopefully, we will be presented with some definitive evidence in this case, sooner rather than later.\nMore in this category: \u00ab Roy Moore vs. Doug Jones: Real Scandal in Alabama Senate Race\tAccuser\u2019s Yearbook at Issue in Roy Moore Case \u00bb",

        "title": "NIKON NIGHT PHOTOGRAPHY SHOWDOWN: THE D850 COMPARED TO ITS COUSINS \u2013 The Nightskye",
        "raw_content": "As you may know, all five of us at National Parks at Night are primarily Nikon shooters. Between us we use the D750, D810, D3s, D4s and D5. Although we are generally happy with our current cameras, some of us are ready for an upgrade. As such, the announcement of the D850 a few months ago excited us as much as it did the rest of the photo world. This camera was touted to be a game-changer for every niche it caters to, including night photography. So it was natural that we\u2019d want to field-test it as a nocturnal tool.\nWith its nearly 46-megapixel sensor and impressive list of specs and features, the D850 was a fitting camera for Nikon to release during its centennial year. Although it is a direct successor to the D810, the D850 seems to be more of a hybrid between the high-megapixel D810 and the high-speed D5. The new camera sports a Nikon-designed 45.7-megapixel FX-format BSI CMOS sensor aimed at landscape, studio and architectural photographers, but can shoot up to 9 frames per second and at least 51 continuous frames before the buffer fills for sports and wedding photographers. And the back-side illuminated sensor should improve low-light performance, which is obviously key for night photographers!\nI recently had the opportunity to spend some time (not nearly enough) with the D850 and compare its performance to other high-end Nikon cameras, especially as it pertains to night photography. Despite the moon, UPS and the weather (clouds, cold and wind) all conspiring against me, I was able to spend a couple of nights with the D850, as well as make some comparison images with the D750, D810 and D5.\nLady Boot Arch from behind, Alabama Hills, Eastern Sierra, California. Lighting with a warm-gelled Coast HP5R flashlight from camera right, low and just in front, plus behind and to the right of the rock column. Single shot. It took about eight tries to get the lighting right. Nikon D850, Irix 11mm f/4 Blackstone lens. 15 seconds, f/5.6, ISO 3200.\nThere are many online reviews of the D850, but in this one I\u2019ll focus entirely on how it performs and handles for night photography\u2013in particular:\nhigh ISO astro-landscape photography\nnative ISO long exposure night photography\nhigh contrast artificial light night photography\nI am assuming that the reader is at least minimally familiar with Nikon DSLRs, and that they will use other resources such as DPReview and DXOMark to evaluate the camera for other types of photography.\nThe camera is just slightly heavier than the D810, and is well-balanced and comfortable to hold. It weighs about half a pound more than the D750, and almost a full pound less than the D5.\nThe controls and buttons of the D850 are similar to the D810, except that the ISO and Mode buttons have switched positions in line with the D5. This is a nice improvement over other Nikon cameras like the D750 where the ISO button is on the back and to the left of the display.\nThe pop-up flash has been sacrificed in favor of better weather sealing and a larger optical viewfinder with .75 magnification and 100 percent frame coverage. Night photographers should appreciate both of these features more than a built-in flash. There is also a flip lever with a shutter to block light from entering through the viewfinder during long exposures.\nThe D850 has an articulated rear screen which operates in the same fashion as the D750 screen, except that it is higher resolution and touch-sensitive. The screen adjusts on only one axis and is useful primarily for low and high camera angles with the camera in the horizontal position. Previous Nikon touch screens were usable only in playback mode, but the D850\u2019s touch screen is also active in live-view and menu navigation modes.\nLike many of Nikon\u2019s semi-pro and professional cameras, the D850 has two card slots, one for XQD and one for SD cards. Personally, I would prefer the choice of two of the same card slots, but the XQD card\u2019s extreme write speed is required to take full advantage of the camera\u2019s high frame rate and large buffer, as well as the massive amounts of data recorded by the high-resolution sensor during video recording.\nOne feature that is especially welcome to night photographers is the introduction of backlit buttons, which obviously ease the task of finding controls in the dark. Though, unlike with the D4s, D5 and D500, only the buttons on the left side of the D850 are illuminated.\nAs with the D750, there is a Time exposure setting, available in manual mode in between X250 and Bulb. The Time setting looks like two dashes (\u201c- -\u201d) in the Control Panel. Unlike the Time setting in the D750, which shuts off after 1,694 seconds if not ended sooner, the D850 shutter will remain open indefinitely.\nUnfortunately, programmed shutter speeds do not extend past 30 seconds, which is also true of the available shutter speeds in the built-in intervalometer. Canon finally extended their shutter speed range with the 6D Mark II and 5D Mark IV, and hopefully Nikon will follow suit with their future models.\nOne of my biggest disappointments with past Nikon cameras has been the poor quality of the live view image in low light, which makes live-view focusing at night quite difficult. There is some improvement with the D850, and a new setting that allows the user to set different brightness levels for live view and image playback is helpful, as are the addition of live-view focus peaking and zebra stripes . (If you\u2019re not familiar with the latter feature, know that it will make your life better. Check it out.)\nPetroglyphs, Volcanic Tablelands, Bishop, California. Illuminated from the right with a warm-gelled Coast HP5R flashlight. Nikon D850. 15 seconds, f/9, ISO 6400.\nThe awkward Mode dial has been replaced with a much more user-friendly Mode button, with the unfortunate trade-off of losing the user-programmable custom modes for saving frequently used combinations of camera settings. I\u2019m also not a fan of the outdated menu banks. Two other concerns:\nThe SnapBridge Bluetooth app for transferring images to your smartphone, at least at first inception, was unreliable at best and is the only way to add GPS data to your files in-camera. (Nikon has told us that the recent update makes it usable, but I have not been able to test it.)\nTransferring files over Wi-Fi requires an attachment, of which the Nikon option is the $750 WT-7A Wireless Transmitter. (There are third-party options as well, which we will cover in the future.)\nDespite the few quibbles mentioned, the D850 is a joy to use. It\u2019s highly customizable and very easy to get comfortable with. I\u2019m not sure that I\u2019d want to trek the Himalayas with it on my back (sans sherpa), but in my limited experiences, it didn\u2019t feel noticeably heavier in the field than my D750.\nMost previous Nikon DSLRs have used Sony engineered sensors, so the first thing to note with the D850 is that this is one of the few cameras that features a Nikon designed sensor. It\u2019s a 45.7-megapixel FX-format BSI CMOS sensor. BSI stands for back-side illumination, a technology that has an atypical arrangement of the sensor components that allows more photons to reach the photodetectors, improving low-light performance, as well as readout rates, or the time required to digitize the light reaching the sensor.\nWhat this means to us is that Nikon has produced an extremely high-resolution camera that does not sacrifice low-light performance. Night photographers can make very large high-quality prints from images made with a D850.\n(An interesting side note is that Sony\u2019s a7R II was the first FX camera to utilize a BSI sensor, and the replacement a7R III also utilizes BSI technology. This technology has been around for a while, but until recently was too expensive to implement in a reasonably priced FX camera.)\nMesquite Flat Sand Dunes, Death Valley National Park. The moon is low in the sky and the ambient exposure is intentionally underexposed for effect. For the middle-ground dunes, warmth, exposure and contrast were boosted using a local adjustment brush in Lightroom. An example of the malleability of files from this camera. Nikon D850, Nikon 24-120mm f/4 lens at 34mm, and Luxli Constructor LED light at 3200 K on the lowest setting, placed at the toe of the foreground dune. 30 seconds, f/10, ISO 800.\nLike its predecessor, the D850 has a native ISO of 64, allowing for wider dynamic range than cameras with a native ISO of 100. The sensor also utilizes dual conversion gain, which has the effect of preserving highlight dynamic range while increasing sensitivity. In essence, the sensor has two different sensitivities: the native ISO of 64, and ISO 400, which is when the increased gain is activated.\nOf course night photography is often done at high ISOs, which sacrifice dynamic range in favor of shorter exposure times. It has been suggested that underexposing at ISO 400 or 500 and then raising the exposure during RAW conversion will preserve more of the dynamic range than shooting at higher ISOs up to 4000. To me this indicates some degree of ISO invariance, (which is reinforced by my test images) although the article linked above claims that it is not.\nOwens Valley Radio Observatory, California. This image was shot at the D850\u2019s native ISO of 64 to test the dynamic range of the sensor in a real-world situation. The scene was exposed for the maximum possible exposure without significant clipping of the brightest highlights, to determine if there would be adequate shadow detail while preserving highlight detail. Neither the camera\u2019s histogram, blinking highlight indicator, nor zebra stripes indicated clipping, but highlight detail just exceeds the capability of an Adobe RGB display. Slightly less exposure would be preferable, especially considering that there is plenty of room on the left side of the histogram for compromise. Unfortunately, I was unable to do comparison shots with the other cameras at this location. In a nutshell: the dynamic range of this camera at native ISO is incredible. Nikon D850, Irix 15mm f/2.4 Blackstone lens. 30 seconds, f/3.2, ISO 64.\nThe focusing system in the D850 is the same as in the D5: a 153-point autofocus system featuring 99 cross-type points. Both the center focusing point and light meter are rated down to -4 EV. This is not enough to focus or meter by starlight, but it does offer a slight improvement over previous Nikon models like the D750 (-3 EV) and D810 (-2 EV).\nAs with the D810, the D850 has no optical low-pass or anti-aliasing filter, which makes for the sharpest possible images, but at a cost of an increased risk of moir\u00e9 in highly detailed areas of a repeating pattern.\nI was able to use the camera in different lighting conditions varying from full moon to starlight to some artificial lighting mixed with moonlight. When I had access to the camera, temperatures ranged between the low 20s and low 40s F, so long exposure noise was not a problem. (I\u2019m eager to try the D850 during our Redwood National Park night photography workshop in late June to see how it performs during long exposures at summer temperatures.)\nAn example of ISO 25,600 in moonlight. Ken Lee at the Keane Wonder Mine, Death Valley National Park. Seeing detail in Ken\u2019s screen and in the folds of his black coat is astounding at this ISO. I would not make a large print of an photo shot at these settings, but the image quality is still very impressive. Nikon D850, Nikon 14-24mm f/2.8 lens at 24mm. 2 seconds, f/6.3, ISO 25,600.\nThirty-minute exposures at native ISO without enabling LENR were clean as a whistle. Native ISO 64 exposures yielded truly extraordinary image quality in both natural and artificial light, but higher ISO images were inconsistent. To be fair, I was not testing in a controlled environment, but with real-world variability that makes it more difficult to be scientific.\nD850 TEST AND COMPARISON IMAGES\nSo you can make your own evaluations, we are providing you a selection of images made during the testing I did for this article. They are mostly DNG files with embedded metadata. Feel free to download the files and manipulate them for evaluative purposes. Please do not attempt to remove or edit the files in this folder, but rather download them onto your own computer first.\nYou can download everything mentioned below at npan.co/d850testimages. (Warning: It might take a while, and we recommend not doing so with a mobile device using a cellular data connection. The files total about half a gigabyte.)\n(All images are \u00a9 2018 Lance Keimig/NationalParksAtNight.com, and may not be printed or republished without express written consent of the author.)\nISO 6400 COMPARISON\nD750 v. D810 v. D850\nThese images were made sequentially on a very cold and windy night in Vermont just before moonrise. The clouds near the horizon are reflecting the lights of South Burlington or Williston, about 20 miles to the north. As the clouds were changing quickly during the shots, the value of comparing highlight clipping is somewhat limited. The foreground was lit by a handheld Luxli Constructor light, which was moved across the frame during the exposure, as the beam was not wide enough to light the entire scene. In hindsight, it would have been better to mount the light on a stand for consistency. The white lines in the road are puddles reflecting light from the sky.\nIn this folder you will find a daytime image made at Ubehebe Crater in Death Valley National Park. The image was made shortly before sunset, during a windstorm that kicked up a tremendous amount of dust. It wasn\u2019t the photo op I had hoped for, but still provided plenty of material to work with. There are three PNG files showing my Lightroom basic and local adjustments, and one showing clipping in the original file. I have included the DNG file, so you can make your own adjustments as well.\nThere is also the radio telescope image in DNG format to show the maximum dynamic range\u2014what\u2019s possible, and what isn\u2019t.\nNATIVE VERSUS HIGH ISO\nD750 v. D5 v. D850\nThere are two subfolders here, one showing native and +6-stop exposures in mixed artificial and moonlight shot with the D750 and D850. These are DNG files. The second folder shows native and +6-stop exposures in starlight with a little light pollution, comparing the D5 and D850 under these circumstances. Note that heavy clouds moved in during the 30-minute exposure on the D850, so it looks quite different than the 30-minute D5 image.\nD5 v. D850\nThese two folders include a sequence of images shot with the D5 and D850 at full-stop ISOs from 100 to 6400 using the same aperture and shutter speed. The D850 folder also includes an ISO 64 image since that is the native ISO of the camera. For each stop of underexposure, the resulting image was given an additional stop of exposure in Lightroom, up to 5, the maximum available. For the ISO 64/100 exposures\u2014which are six stops less than the 6400 exposures\u2014five stops plus Highlights and Shadows were added to make the image look as good as possible. Only basic module adjustments were applied.\nThe conclusion is that the D5 is most definitely not invariant, and the D850 is- but with a caveat. The D5 has a lower dynamic range at native ISO, and best results are achieved by giving correct exposure at whatever ISO you use, and not by raising exposure in post-processing. Conversely, the D850 has extremely wide dynamic range at native ISO 64, and also has a small bump in dynamic range at ISO 400 when the additional gain is applied to the sensor. Best results are achieved by shooting at ISO 64 when possible, or, for astro-landscape imaging for star points or Milky Way photography, I recommend shooting at ISO 400 and adding four stops of exposure in the RAW converter of your choosing.\nFor example, a typical astro-landscape photography exposure would be 20 seconds, f/2.8, ISO 6400. With the D850, I recommend using 20 seconds, f/2.8, ISO 400, and then boosting the exposure by four stops during RAW conversion. This will allow you to use the much wider dynamic range at the lower ISO without adding additional shot noise to the image. (Using ISOs lower than 400 and boosting the exposure in post by more than four stops will not yield better results.)\nThese are DNG files, so feel free to download and reset them to make your own adjustments from scratch.\nLIGHT WRITING COMPARISON\nD750 v. D810 v. D5 v. D850\nThese images, made on the Racetrack Playa in Death Valley, are the only ones I have comparing all four cameras. But due to the unique nature of each light-writing exposure\u2013\u2013namely the angle of the light source and the speed it was moving\u2014there are some intrinsic variations in highlights. Still, they\u2019re fun files to review in order to get a general sense of the image qualities under these conditions (moonlight with a light source in the frame).\nWHICH NIKON IS RIGHT FOR YOU?\nIn short, all of the cameras I tested have outstanding image quality, and make excellent choices for night photographers. The question readers should be asking themselves is, \u201cWhich camera is best for my needs?\u201d\nThe D750, despite being released more than 3 years ago, produces images that hold their own amongst its more expensive brethren. It is a superb value, currently priced at just under $1,800, and is a great step up from an APS-C camera. It would also be an excellent choice for a second body.\nThe compromise in choosing the D750 is primarily in user experience. Lacking a touch screen and the better live-view image quality of the newer cameras\u2014as well as the comfort features of the D5 and D850 such as illuminated rear controls and an eyepiece shutter\u2014don\u2019t affect image quality so much as ease of use.\nIf you never print, or if you never display your images on anything larger than your computer display, you might be best off with a D750 and using the extra money to invest in some new Nikon glass to go with it.\nThe D810 was released 3 1/2 years ago, and is currently priced around $2,800. Heralded as revolutionary at the time of its release, it is still a great camera, but a bit harder to recommend after the release of its successor. At roughly $500 less than the D850, I don\u2019t think there\u2019s enough of a savings to sacrifice all that the new camera adds to the party. Photographers who need the resolution of the D810\u2019s 36-megapixel sensor but are on a restricted budget are those who might be attracted to the predecessor now. Look for price drops in the near future, or consider buying a used one as upgraders unload their \u201cold\u201d models.\nThe D5 is truly a beast. Capable, durable, fast, accurate and relatively heavy. It\u2019s not a camera for hikers, not even for long walks. Some famous photographer once said that if a subject wasn\u2019t within 100 yards of the car, it wasn\u2019t worth photographing. This camera is for that guy. Maybe it\u2019s for you if you have a reliable assistant who never complains about schlepping your gear. Maybe it\u2019s for you if you are strong and young and cost is not a primary consideration. For the journalist, sports or high-end wedding shooter who also does night photography, this is the camera. The D5 is worthy of its flagship status in every way. But not only is it significantly heavier than its more-than-worthy little siblings, it\u2019s also significantly more costly: $6,500, body only.\nNow, the camera we really want to talk about: the D850. Released in October 2017, and priced at $3,300, there is still a backlog and a wait of one to two months to get your hands on one. Nikon Professional Services members do a little better, with an approximate wait time of two weeks as of January 2018.\nAs mentioned earlier in this post, the D850 takes some of the best features of both the D810 and the D5 and combines them into one camera. The D850 offers outstanding image quality, close to medium-format resolution and high-end features (many of which are extremely useful for night photographers)\u2014all for roughly half the price of the D5.\nIt\u2019s not perfect\u2013\u2013native Wi-Fi and a useful smartphone controller, GPS, extended shutter speeds, custom exposure modes, and high ISO amplification that doesn\u2019t push highlights into clipping would all be welcome improvements. Still, the combination of image quality, high resolution and features make the D850 one of the very best digital cameras ever made.\nI recommend the D850 for professional and serious amateur night photographers who want to make large high-quality prints. And those who want to take advantage of the latest technologies in a camera with outstanding image quality without taking out a second mortgage should also put their names on the list. Whatever your choice, any of these outstanding cameras will serve you well in your night photography pursuits.\nThe links in this article are B&H affiliate links.

While starting out as a party band at Indiana University, their forthcoming April 28th release \u201cWithout a Sound\u201d illustrates their increasing musical maturity and creativity inspired by their new home in Los Angeles.\nIf maturity comes with experience, \u201cWithout a Sound\u201d reflects this. The Main Squeeze has spent several years building their foundation since being championed by producer Randy Jackson: they have played Red Rocks; shared the stage with The Roots, Aloe Blacc, Jane\u2019s Addiction, Umphrey\u2019s McGee, and Trombone Shorty; and performed at music festivals like Bonnaroo, Electric Forest, Summer Camp, and High Sierra.\nThe Main Squeeze is a blend of soul and hip-hop, funk with rock. They know their sound is \u201csoulful, powerful, and unique\u201d (Newman). Rolling Stone agrees in their recent critique of a live show: \u201cLead singer Corey Frye\u2019s powerfully soulful vocals forms the foundation of an energetic set.\u201d\nThese underpinnings are important yet The Main Squeeze\u2019s true focus will always be to \u201cstrive to reach people\u201d through their beat loving heart in their music. \u201cWe are devoted to making great music for people to get lost in and to feel real emotion and love, and also to dance and enjoy life. And it\u2019s only just the beginning\u201d (Newman). Billboard believes they have touched on this goal: \u201cFunk runs deep in their DNA. Dare you not to two-step.\u201d\nThe beats on \u201cWithout A Sound\u201d are plentiful and it is balanced with emotion, a mix of vocals, and instrumentation of the band.

Romero, Killercon\u2019s Gross Out, and Billy And The Cloneasaurus\nBook Review: Twin Lakes: Autumn Fires by Michelle Garza and Melissa Lason\n\u201cAccessible and entertaining horror \u2026 the Sisters of Slaughter haven\u2019t finished with the residents of Twin Lakes. And neither have we.\u201d\n2018 has been a very productive year for Melissa Lason and Michelle Garza, aka The Sisters of Slaughter. As well as working all year on Serial Box\u2019s Silverwood: The Door with Brian Keene, Richard Chizmar and Stephen Kozeniewski, they released novel Kingdom of Teeth through Eraserhead Press in April, a standalone short, We Walk Among You, through Darker World Publishing in July and contributed to anthology Splatterpunk Forever from the Splatterpunk Zine in November. They also found the time to create a new world in Twin Lakes: Autumn Fires, a world that warrants exploring.\nWelcome to Twin Lakes, a small town in the Pacific Northwest which, on the surface, looks like any other; surrounded by forests, local businesses, friendly locals. But, if you look a little deeper, things are much more mysterious. A shadowy group known only as \u201cThe Ancestors\u201d have a connection with the town founders and influence everything that happens in the town, from the Mayor\u2019s office to law enforcement. Despite this, the non-supernatural inhabitants of the town live a happy and prosperous life in Twin Lakes while The Ancestors maintain a status quo.\nBut the happy equilibrium is threatened by the appearance of a serial killer preying on young women and sacrificing them in strange rituals to honour a dark force long thought defeated. When the killer makes the mistake of allowing his latest intended victim to escape, it sets in motion the events of the story that will lead to a fight for the future of the town between the forces of darkness and light.\nFor the most part, the characters are well fleshed-out. There is a large cast for such a short book, with The Ancestors, the local law enforcement, the \u201ccivilians\u201d, the survivor and the killer all requiring their own space and back-stories. The book can feel a little crammed at times, with so many characters and threads. And some of the characters do stand out more than others, especially police officers Linda and Earl. But it doesn\u2019t take away from the overall enjoyment of the story. Wishing for more of something is usually a good sign, and there is definitely scope for more stories to take place in mysterious Twin Lakes in the future.\nThe mystery surrounding the identity of the killer and the influence and nature of the underlying dark presence is handled very well. Although the character development and story of the town could have been expanded, the pacing of the story is very good. Measured, rather than break-neck, the revelations keep the reader turning the pages, eager to discover the truth. The horrific visuals are also handled well. Sure, there are some gruesome scenes, given the nature of the serial killer\u2019s modus operandi. But it is never over-the-top or gratuitous.\nAutumn Fires is accessible and entertaining horror with elements of mystery and small-town life. The premise of the plot and the mythology of the town make for fertile ground. It is packed with mostly compelling characters and, although it seems under-developed in some areas, there is more than enough here to suggest that the Sisters of Slaughter haven\u2019t finished with the residents of Twin Lakes. And neither have we.\nPublisher: Sinister Grin Press\nPaperback: 236 (pps)\nIf you enjoyed our review and want to read Twin Lakes: Autumn Fires by Michelle Garza and Melissa Lason, please consider clicking through to our links.

The visit also includes interactive, educational components and the unique possibility of slide down an open-air glass slide: the Skyslide.\nSkyspace and Skyslide: get to an observatory and slide down the US bank tower\nThe skyscraper US Bank Tower is located in the heart of Los Angeles and has 310 meters and its design is unique (literally). If this city has such a characteristic skyline, it is thanks to this building.\nThe observatory is located on floors 69 and 70, more than 300 meters above the city and has the privilege of being the highest outdoor observation platform in the state of California, offering a complete view of all of Los Angeles, from the mountains of Hollywood Hills, to the Pacific and of course the city.\nIn addition, it is not simply a place to enjoy incredible views, with the entrance you will enjoy interactive and educational activities, along the route and its spectacular and impressive Skyslide, a slide with more than 300 meters high, only one in the world. A dizzying experience.\nThe Skyslide slide is made of a thick transparent glass and has a length of 13 meters in which it will seem that you fly over Los Angeles. The best option to complete your experience.\nDaily from 10:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m.\nLast access at 9:00 p.m.\nOUE Skyspace Price tickets and general considerations\nThe price of the general ticket does not include access to the skyspace slide, the corresponding ticket must be selected.\nChildren under 5 can not climb Skyslide.\nBoth Skyspace and Skyline are adapted to people with reduced mobility.\nThe address of the US Bank Tower is 633 West 5th Street, Los Angeles, CA 90071\nSubway: Center and Pershing Square\nBus: Lines 16, 17, 18, 53, 55, 62, 335, 316, 62\nCuriosities: The US Bank Tower, a movie building\nWe know that Los Angeles is the city of cinema, it is possible that during the visit to the city you find yourself with some scenario of some super production. But what does this have to do with OUE Skyspace?\nIf you enter the US Bank Tower in addition to seeing unique views of the city you will be able to access the stage of multiple films.\nOne of the best known is Independence Day, where the building will be the first objective of the imminent massive extraterrestrial invasion.\nHe also appears in the Bruce Willis movie \"The Kid\" and in other productions such as D-War, Southland Tales, San Andreas and the apocalyptic film of 2012, where he falls by a major earthquake.\nFinally, it has appeared in such popular games as the Grand Theft Auto saga, in which they appear under another name, but as we have said before, it is easily recognizable thanks to its characteristic design.",

        "raw_content": "Home>2016>March 30\nImage: STUART JENNER / SHUTTERSTOCK\nMy friend plopped down on my couch, curling her feet underneath her. With a coffee cup in hand, she started to tell me about all the things that had unfolded in her life since we last talked. As the conversation transitioned from the events of her life to how her heart was processing everything, we wandered into family finances.\nShe soon confessed that she and her husband, who have been married for more than four years, were still using separate bank accounts. When I asked why, she smiled and said, \u201cI didn\u2019t want to give up the freedom to spend what I want when I want.\u201d\nI laughed because I understood; I have the same independent streak. As she continued she explained that having separate bank accounts hasn\u2019t been a problem on the whole. After blowing into her still steaming cup, she shared the crux of her story: She realized that because they have separate bank accounts, both she and her husband have a tendency to foster a great deal of insecurity about their finances, simply because neither can see what the other has!\nAs she started to unpack her revelation, firecrackers were going off in my head. This is true about all kinds of insecurities; they are fostered when we only allow ourselves to see half of the whole.\nEqual Giftedness\nThere are many occasions in our lives when the other half of the story simply has not unfolded. This fear of the future that only God knows is certainly part of our faith walk, and perhaps it\u2019s an ongoing journey toward trust in God. But that\u2019s not exactly the same situation as my friend was describing. In her case, she has access to a whole pot but is fostering insecurity in her life because she won\u2019t take advantage of knowing the whole.\nInsecurity; Service; Spiritual Gifts\nToday's Christian Woman, March 30, 2016\n60 Days to ...

It was established in 1913, replacing the site of a previous colonial garden established by Edith Roosevelt (wife of Teddy Roosevelt) in 1902. She travelled back to Princeton, New Jersey with her landscaper to show him some of the work she had done there and intended to copy elements of at the White House. It included a fountain and marble statue of mythic Pan, one source claiming that Ellen Wilson chose the figurine of the boy to represent the son that she had always wished for. Although Ellen Wilson\u2019s Rose Garden landscape design did not endure through the generations to the present-day landscape design, it was placed in the same spot, outside the West Wing and thus established the tradition. She also created a garden design for the area flanking the east colonnade, at the site of the present-day Jacqueline Kennedy Garden, installing a lily pond stocked with goldfish.\nWoodrow Wilson and Ellen Wilson in the garden of the Princeton University president's home, for which she did her own landscaping design.

        "raw_content": "Jumpstart: We All Play for Canada\nIf I could have chosen to dedicate myself to a single sport as a child, it likely would have been figure skating. Swimming would have been a close second. Looking back on my youth, should the circumstances had been different, I probably could have excelled at a sport if I had been able to dedicate myself fully to it. The problem wasn't any lack of motivation but rather the inevitable reality that both of my parents had to work long hours in order to provide for us, their children. As immigrants, all they really knew was the life of hard labour. Joining a sports team was never on their radar. Instead, they appreciated the value of a hard-earned dollar and preached how important it was to be debt-free. They did not have any insurance benefits and therefore had to pay for all of our dental, health and vision costs out of pocket. The idea of spending money on expensive sports equipment or costly recreational fees was unfathomable, let alone finding the time in their busy work schedules to taxi us around to practices or games.\nNevertheless, whenever it was time for the Olympic Games, our family could often be found sitting together in the living room marveling over the accomplishments of our nation's top athletes. It was a time for me to live vicariously through my figure skating idols, to dream about what it must feel like to land a perfect triple axel, to shed a tear of pride as they accepted their medals whilst the Canadian flag hung in the background.\nThere is no denying that sports play an important role in shaping a child\u2019s life. However, the reality is that 1 in 3 Canadian families cannot afford to get their kids involved in sports and recreation. Jumpstart, a nationally registered charity, aims to help kids experience the joy of participating in sports and develop the life skills inherent in doing so. Kids aged 4-18 are given a sporting chance through Jumpstart, which covers costs associated with registration, equipment and/or transportation. Since 2005, Jumpstart has helped almost 700,000 kids (and counting) get in the game. And 100% of donations to Jumpstart go straight to achieve their vision of helping equip kids for life and directing them towards a better future. Together we can help all kids play!\nThis year, Canadian Tire Jumpstart is proud to have 10 Olympic Ambassadors attending the Winter Games in Sochi. To show their support, Canadian Tire and Sport Chek will be donating $5,000 to Jumpstart for every goal scored by one of the Jumpstart Olympic Ambassadors. These Ambassadors include Jonathan Toews, Sidney Crosby, Hayley Wickenheiser, Meaghan Mikkelson and Ma\u00eblle Ricker, who was named one of the top 10 most influential snowboarders of all time and brought home an Olympic Gold medal in 2010 and World Cup Gold in 2013. To learn more about the Ambassadors, visit the Ambassadors tab on Jumpstart\u2019s Facebook page.\nIn honour of the Olympic Winter Games, Jumpstart has launched the Podium Predictor. Submit your total medal count prediction for the Canadian Olympic Team before February 20 to be entered to WIN 1 of 17 daily prizes or a Grand Prize of a $250 Canadian Tire shopping spree!\nTo help get you into the spirit of the Games, you could also win this Jumpstart prize pack valued at $110. It includes:\nAdidas duffel bag, small\nJumpstart slingback backpack\nNike towel\nCanada games sweater\nJumpstart lanyard and ball\nTo be eligible to win, complete the Rafflecopter form below.

        "raw_content": "10 Things to Expect at This Year's US Open\nTwo words: Serena Slam.\nBrace yourselves, tennis fans: it's almost time for the best two weeks of the year. This summer's US Open starts Monday, and it promises to be the sparkliest and most tech-friendly (not to mention most juice-fast-friendly) Grand Slam ever. And while much news about this year's tournament has yet to come our way, here's what we know to expect:\nCourtesy USTA\nIt's ready. Well, not quite. But a retractable roof at Arthur Ashe Stadium is under construction and will be ready by 2016, meaning NO MORE RAIN DELAYS. As for now, if you are lucky enough to attend the Open this summer, expect to see 6,000 tons of yet-to-be-assembled steel parts surrounding the stadium, which eventually will form a technologically unprecedented stand-alone support system for the roof. At the end of the tournament, work will continue on the two retractable panels as well as installation of a chilled water ventilation system to control humidity inside the stadium when the roof is closed. When the roof becomes operational, it will be the largest of any tennis stadium in the world.\n2. Technology updates\nThe USTA has updated all lights, sound and video boards at Arthur Ashe Stadium, so that this year there will be four big screens rather than two, and LED lights for more energy-efficient lighting during the matches.\n3. The \"Serena Slam\"\nIf Serena wins the US Open (which most tennis experts expect, given that she is the three-time defending champion) she will become the first woman since Steffi Graf in 1988 to pull off a calendar-year Grand Slam. Serena's coach, Patrick Mouratoglou, is confident. \"I think if the crowd helps her, it's going to be a plus,\" the Frenchman told a small group of reporters. \"So of course I expect the American crowd to be the best ever for her, because to have an American player like her who is probably the greatest (in) history writing history at the U.S. Open is huge, and I hope the American crowd will be so proud of that that they will help her.\" via CNN\n4. A lot of cold-pressed juice\nGreen juice fans, rejoice: Juice Press will be everywhere at Flushing Meadows. The company has a unique opportunity to serve product to players and their guests in the US Open Player Dining area.\n5. Shenanigans from Nick Kyrgios\nKyrgios, the Dennis Rodman of tennis, got into trouble last month for sexually taunting fellow Australian Stan Wawrinka. What will he do next to appall and delight fans?\n6 Arthur Ashe Kids Day\nIn celebration of Arthur Ashe and his legacy on and off-court, Arthur Ashe Kids Day will be held on Saturday, August 29, and hosted by fitness guru Shaun T (aka the guy who created the INSANITY workout.) The event features five former US Open champions, including Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, Novak Djokovic and defending champions Marin Cilic and Serena Williams. Musical acts include Bea Miller, Kalin and Myles, Jacob Whitesides,\nNatalie La Rose and American Authors.\n7. Opening night festivities\nJosh Groban will perform on opening night (Monday, August 31) and be followed by Vanessa Williams singing the National Anthem, a performance accompanied by honor guards from the NYPD and FDNY.\n8. Return to traditional Grand Slam schedule\nFor 2015, the US Open returns to a traditional 14-day Grand Slam tournament schedule, with the men's first round being completed over two days rather than three. The new schedule calls for the women's singles semifinals to be played the evening of Thursday, September 10, and the men's singles semifinals to be played on Friday, September 11. Finals Weekend begins with the women's singles championship on Saturday, September 12, and concludes with the men's singles championship on Sunday, September 13.\n9. The Grey Goose honey deuce\nThe fan-favorite will be the official cocktail of the US Open for the ninth year in a row, with more than 150,000 cocktails sold since its inception. Celebrities, tastemakers and fans alike have delighted in its novelty, toasting the refinement of the sport with this refreshing lemonade cocktail and its signature honeydew melon \"tennis ball\" garnish.\n10. Charging stations\nIf your phone runs out of battery before a Serena Williams selfie, don't worry: this year charging stations sponsored by Chase will be all over the grounds, from a dedicated Chase booth near the Food Village to the Club Level of the stadium.\nThis Year's Beauty Trends at the US Open\nIs This the Most Luxurious Suite at the US Open?\nMust Check Out: The Mo\u00ebt Terrace at the US Open",

It was the tractor for transportation of main battle tanks on the M15A2 semi-trailer with a load capacity 45-50 tons. In 1955, producing of the flatbed truck-prime mover M125 for towing 155 and 203 mm heavy artillery was began. It had a 20-ton winch. This range also included the M122 dump truck, chassis M121 and M124 with a different wheelbase carrying up to 16 tones. Trucks were equipped with the Le Roi overhead valve petrol engine V8 (13,8 l, 286 hp), a 5-speed gearbox, pneumatic brakes, 24-volt electric, 2-door cab with a soft-top, metal flatbed, crane and 24-inch wheels. The trucks had a ground clearance 523 mm and could go over a 76 cm depth ford (with additional training - about 2 m). Maximum speed was 70 km/h. In 60s, the trucks were replaced with the updated models \u2013 the flatbed truck M125A1 and tractors M123C and M123D with one or two winches and a lowered position of a coupling. In 1968, this production was transferred to the Consolidated Diesel Electric Company from Connecticut, better known as the ConDiesel or CONDEC. The company produced the M123A1C tractor with a 300-horsepower diesel engine Cummins V8, and then - the M123E2 version, which were designed for towing the semitrailer M747 with a load capacity of 60 tons. Organizational changes in 60s in the field of standardized army trucks led to a concentration of production, first at the company Kaiser Jeep, but since 1971 at the new military-industrial company AM General.\nM123 M123A1C M125A1 M123\nM123 M123A1C M123A1C",

        "raw_content": "Riyad Emeran September 6, 2018 4:28 pm\nIf you're concerned about the environment you might want to check out these new 'green' memory modules from Adtec.\nAll of us like to believe that we\u2019re environmentally conscious, but in reality very few of us are. Unfortunately, most of us are far more likely to be swayed by a cheaper product than one that is environmentally sound.\nI\u2019m pretty sure that most PC users have never given a second thought to the environmental impact of memory modules, I know that I haven\u2019t. But traditionally memory modules are manufactured using many harmful substances such as lead and halogenated compounds.\nAs a result, being environmentally friendly is usually something that needs to be enforced by law, rather than left up to individuals and companies making a responsible choice.\nIt\u2019s the disposal of products that are manufactured with these harmful substances that causes the greatest risk to the environment. So the obvious solution is to stop making products that incorporate these substances, then disposal will not be an issue.\nOn the 27th January 2003 the European Parliament issued a Directive prohibiting the sale of electronic equipment containing lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent, chromium, PBB and PBDE after 1st July 2006. This means that after 1st July 2006 you should be safe in the knowledge that any memory modules you buy are environmentally friendly.\nOf course that deadline is still two and a half years away, meaning that thousands of memory modules containing heavy metals and contaminants will be purchased. But if you want to take a stand now, Adtec Corporation has already started shipping memory modules that are both lead and halogen free.\nAdtec is committed to eliminating the environmental effects in electronic components and has brought its lead and halogen free memory modules to market long before the EU directive comes into play.\nAdtec produces both desktop modules from PC133 up to PC3200, in capacities from 128MB up to 1GB. You can also get Adtec\u2019s environmentally friendly memory modules for your notebook in sizes up to 512MB.\nSo, if you\u2019re environmentally aware and want to extend that to your PC, you can find out more about Adtec memory here",

Regular TTC fares apply.\nThe 509 Harbourfront route operates from Union Station to the Exhibition Place, providing service along Queens Quay to many tourist destinations such as the Ferry Docks, Harbourfront and the Canadian National Exhibition.\nPCCs were the backbone of the TTC surface fleet for many decades, and were a popular sight in Toronto from 1938 to 1995. At one time, Toronto owned the largest fleet of PCCs in the world - 745 cars. Two cars remain in the TTC fleet and are available for charters.\nThe Toronto Transit Commission moves 460 million people every year \u2013 about 1.5 million riders every weekday. The TTC is the third largest public transit system in North America serving some 4.5 million people in the Greater Toronto Area, with a network of subways, streetcars, buses, and a specialized service, Wheel-Trans, for people who require accessible transportation.

        "raw_content": "Recognizing the signs of addiction is a crucial first step to help a loved one who is struggling with addiction. Once you have identified the addiction, it\u2019s time to take action. However, it isn\u2019t time to barge in and cause a scene by berating your loved one. That would be counter-productive, and even potentially dangerous. Instead, follow the advice below on how to help a loved one with addiction. If you need more help or have additional questions, please reach out to us or your nearest drug treatment center.\nOne-on-One Interactions\nBe sure to approach the person quietly and with great sincerity regarding their addiction. This strategy shows that you truly care about that person, and want to help them get through their issues. This strategy is far less intimidating than a full-on intervention, which can send an addict further down their spiral.\nRegarding interventions: our experience is that successful interventions require planning, organization, and execution under the direction of a professional, and are best considered when one\u2019s denial is entrenched and unresponsive to other efforts and strategies.\nA smart way to approach this plan is to strategically plan a time that you can be alone together, free of distractions and interruptions. As with any drug or alcohol addiction, the sooner the better.\nCasting blame and shaming your loved one will do more harm than good. Instead, a better approach is to center the conversation around you. Share your feelings, thoughts and solutions in a calm, meticulous manner.\nUse more \u201cI\u201d statements than \u201cyou\u201d declarations. Your goal is to show the person that their actions affect others \u2013 people they do still care about, even with their addiction. No matter what the person\u2019s behavior has been like, it\u2019s important to remember that the one you are trying to help is not a bad person.\nUnfortunately, there is no \u201ccookie-cutter\u201d solution as addiction affects everyone differently. There may be times in which offering to help can result in trying situations.\nMost of the time, an addict will be in denial of their drug or alcohol abuse. They\u2019ve kept it hidden and don\u2019t believe they are affecting anyone, including themselves. In these cases, try bringing up specific behaviors or incidents in which they have caused harm (physical, emotional, financial, etc) to others. Emphasize that their actions do have consequences.\nIt\u2019s not uncommon for addicts to become visibly upset and angry when confronted about their drug or alcohol abuse. In these cases, it is best to remain as calm as possible. Remember, you\u2019re not there to berate them; you\u2019re there to help them. By remaining calm and sincere, you\u2019ll show your loved one that you are only trying to assist them in overcoming their addiction. Compassion will have a much stronger result than arguing.\nYour loved one may or may not be receptive to sharing their thoughts or feelings on their addiction. This may be caused by a sense of inner denial, shame, depression or more. Reiterate the fact that you are there for them. Remain supportive and maintain contact, even if they push you away at first. Expressing your concern for them is much better than simply walking away.\nIf your loved one is receptive to hearing your thoughts and concerns, ask if they would be willing to seek professional help. Rehab may sound like a scary word, but death is even scarier. Drug treatment centers and addiction support facilities create an environment that allows addicts to overcome their physical and emotional issues.",

        "raw_content": "Children and Multiple Sclerosis in Boise Idaho\nYour Child and an MS Report\nEvery parent wants the best for their child. That desire is so deep that new parents cheer when they count ten fingers and ten toes on their newborn children. That desire never stops, and parents will do almost anything to make sure their kids grow up happy and healthy.\nUnfortunately, as much as we love our kids, we just can't prevent bad things from happening to them all of the time. Most of the time those bad things happen in the form of bumps, bruises, and and scrapes. But sometimes they come in the form of a doctor reporting bad news to us about our children.\nOne negative report that no parent wants to hear of their child is that they have been diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis (MS). News like that has a tendency to change one's life and not for the better.\nMultiple Sclerosis and Nerve Damage\nSo what exactly happens in multiple sclerosis?\nYour nerve cells are protected by a protective covering called the Myelin Sheath in multiple sclerosis that myelin sheath has been damaged. That nerve damage causes signals in your body to slow down or stop, and that means communication between your brain and your body is hindered.\nIt is believed that an autoimmune reaction is part of the problem when it comes to multiple sclerosis. Whereas your body begins to attack the myelin sheath and destroy it. But what is leading to the autoimmune reaction in the first place? This is the question that continues to challenge multiple sclerosis researchers. One of the most common theories today centers around chronic cerebrospinal venous insufficiency also known as CCSVI.\nChronic cerebrospinal venous insufficiency is a condition where people have obstructed blood flow in the veins that drain the central nervous system (the brain and spinal cord). Research indicates that CCSVI is significantly correlated with multiple sclerosis.\nAs a result of these venous abnormalities, the blood flow rate through the central nervous system back toward the heart may become slowed, and blood may reflux\nPeople with CCSVI have one or more of the following blockages of the veins that drain blood from the central nervous system:\nStenosis is an abnormal narrowing of the veins that restricts blood flow. Types of stenoses include the collapse of the vein, twisting of the vein, ring-like narrowings in the vein, and other similar obstructions\nAn abnormal valve, flap, or membrane that blocks or inhibits blood flow through the veins\nAtresia, hypoplasia, or agenesis \uf0b7 are severe venous problems, including veins that are partially closed, underdeveloped, minimally formed, or almost entirely missing\nCCSVI's existence and association with MS has received broad support from a wide range of studies conducted across three continents.1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8\nCCSVI may be the result of a misalignment of the upper neck. The misalignment of the upper neck could lead to CCSVI and CCSVI could lead to the autoimmune reaction that leads to the multiple sclerosis.\n\ufeffpper Cervical Care & Multiple Sclerosis\nSome of the newest and most relevant research on upper cervical care has demonstrated the link between MS and the upper cervical spine. Although upper cervical care is not considered a cure for those with MS, the studies demonstrate the extreme benefits for those suffering with this debilitating neurological disease. A study published in 2005 revealed that 100% of the patients with Multiple Sclerosis had a history of upper cervical injuries whether months old or years old. Another recently published case study has shown that correction of upper neck injuries may reverse the progression of MS. Dr. Erin Elster, an upper cervical chiropractor, performed the research. Through the use of upper cervical care, Elster corrected chronic upper neck injuries in an MS patient, which may have stimulated a reversal of his MS symptoms. These results have been duplicated in upper cervical centers across the country and have shown the same promising results. Elster\u2019s report was published in the Journal of Vertebral Subluxation Research. It stated that, \u201cAccording to medical research, head and neck injuries have long been considered a cause of Multiple Sclerosis. But this is the first research to show that correction of those injuries can have dramatic effects on reversing MS.\u201d In light of these recent reports, it is absolutely essential, if you have MS, that you have your spine and nervous system examined by an upper cervical doctor.\n- See more at: http://www.uppercervicalcare.com/Can-UCC-Help-Me/Multiple-Sclerosis#sthash.yd9N7vv7.dpuf\n1.

        "raw_content": "Let me tell you about Richard. Richard is one of Charlottesville\u2019s unsung heroes and a very definite character in our local wine world. Richard spends half his life in Portugal where he and his wife, Barbara, have a farm close to the Portugal/Spain border in the province of Alentejo (pronounced \u201cAlenteejoo\u201d in Portuguese). He is virtually a native to Alentejo, which I can honestly say is one of the most unspoiled and underappreciated areas of Portugal. (You can read more about the region in his book \u201cA Cottage in Portugal\u201d.) The other half of the year he spends in Charlottesville. Coincidentally, both places that Richard calls home lie on the 38th Parallel, which, to give it some context, not only runs through Virginia and The Alentejo, but also the Northern wine regions of Sicily.\nThe Alentejo is to Portugal as the Loire Valley is to France: both are described as being the \u201cbreadbasket\u201d of their countries where the majority of the wines are for everyday drinking. What has recently put the Alentejo on the map is the emergence of modern viticultural practices with modern winemaking techniques that because of the scale of the landscape have enabled larger estates to flourish with high quality wine at lower prices.\nThe region is huge, accounting for one third of the surface area of Portugal. Did you know that Port from Portugal accounts for only 25% of the wine made in Portugal? Put another way 75% of the wine coming from Portugal is your regular non-fortified light wine and two thirds of that is red wine.\nWhen it comes to wine production in Portugal you should think of three main regions: The Douro, The Minho, and The Alentejo.\nThe Douro of course is the most famous and legendary producer of fortified red wine simply known as Port.\nThe Minho region of northern Portugal produces most of Portugal\u2019s white wines the most popular of which are Vinho Verde and Alvarinho. Believe it or or not there are records of Minho wines being exported to the UK dating back to the twelfth century.\nThen there is The Alentejo region, which is probably the least well known of Portugal\u2019s wine regions and yet the second largest producer of Portuguese wine.\nA Winery Amongst the Vines\nThe key to understanding the geography of The Alentejo is the Tejo River, which is actually the largest river in Portugal, and splits the country almost in half: 60% to the north and 40% to the south. The Tejo drains into the Atlantic Ocean in the region around the capital city of Lisbon. There is a small wine region on the banks of the river called the Tejo but much more importantly is the much larger region beyond the Tejo called \u201caway from the Tejo\u201d or the Alentejo, which is a vast, relatively arid region with almost deserted roads and cork trees interspersed amongst the rolling hills. The region totals 28,000 hectares of grapes in eight different sub regions (described further in part II).\nDenuded cork trees\nTo understand the region better, a bit more historical background is always helpful. Portugal joined the EU in 1986. Prior to that, the country had been under the dictatorship of Antonio Salazar. Under his regime rural areas like The Alentejo produced large volumes of low quality wine, that at the time were similar to wines made in the Soviet dominated countries like Romania and Croatia. 1986, the year Portugal joined the European Union (EU), was the equivalent of the liberation of the wine growing regions except for the Douro that had for centuries been making wines independent of any ruling class. With the EU came EU money and with EU money came modernization of infrastructure, and most important of all: investment in the otherwise neglected wine growing regions of Portugal.\nThere have been parallels drawn between the Alentejo and California in the post\u2013prohibition era. Indeed, some have called the Alentejo the California of Portugal such is the excitement and logarithmic growth of the wine industry. The pattern parallels new-growth wine areas worldwide.\nAs in California, the big name producers come in first and set up large-scale production in the most favorable regions. Then the \u201cyoung maverick\u201d groups of usually young, educated wine savvy individuals \u201crediscover\u201d the latent indigenous varieties of the region.These rediscovered wines capture the imagination of the wine media, always looking for the latest \u201cemerging\u201d region to promote as the latest and greatest wine region that you have never heard of. That in a nutshell is the wine story of the Alentejo since 1986.\nAlthough the primary focus of our trip was wine, we were also impressed the multitude of cultural artifacts. Wine is an integral theme throughout Portuguese history and boy what a history, a history that mirrors the entire history of Europe from the Greek origins to the Roman Empire, the invasion of the Ottomans and by the middle ages Portugal emerges as its own state with its own language.The country is scattered with remnants of the past, perhaps, scars of the past but fascinating nevertheless.\nSome of my favorite of the Cultural Highlights:\nOlive trees dating back to the lifetime of Christ\nWe witnessed so much cultural heritage in so many different places it is difficult to highlight any one specific location but the towns of Evora and Bejo were the standouts, where we saw this incredible artifacts.\nQuinta de Bacalhoa\nSusanna and Daniel\nOttoman tiles (Azulejos) Limitless designs and patterns, none of which contained any depiction of the human form in keeping with the rules of Islam\nCol\u00e9gio do Esp\u00edrito Santo Universidade de \u00c9vora founded 1559\nEvora is the regional capital boasting a UNESCO World heritage site with impressive 15th century Manueline architecture as well as a Roman Temple (under repair on our visit)\nSome have claimed that Evora is to Portugal what Lyon is to France when it comes to gastronomic delight and if that is the case and you are a \u201cfoodie\u201d Evora needs to be on your bucket list. The cuisine unlike Lyon was born out of poverty and capitalizes on wonderful local ingredients: meats, notably black pig, game, wild herbs, sheep and goats\u2019 cheeses and wood-oven baked breads all imbued with what might be some of the best extra virgin oil I have ever experienced!\nStay tuned next week for my post on the wines of the Alentejo.",

        "raw_content": "Tajikistan Threatened by Locust Infestation\nThe United Nations say an exceptionally high locust infestation expected this year in Tajikistan could threaten the east European nation's food supply. The U.N. Food and Agriculture Organization says urgent action must be taken to prevent a humanitarian catastrophe. Lisa Schlein reports for VOA from Geneva.\nThe U.N. Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) is appealing for $500,000 to stop the plague of locusts in its tracks. With this money, the FAO says it will be able to buy the pesticides and equipment necessary to stop the locust infestation.\nA U.N. humanitarian spokeswoman, Elizabeth Byrs, says more than 150,000 hectares of land could become infested with the insects. This is an increase of nearly 30 percent from 2007. She says infestation is currently covering about one-third of the country, putting more than two million people at risk.\n\"This year, the infestation is quicker and bigger, larger than the previous year and if urgent action is not taken, this could affect the food security of the population in Tajikistan,\" she said.\nU.N. officials explain the large increase in locusts is due to both favorable weather conditions and incomplete spraying last year. This, they say, is allowing larger than normal amounts of locust eggs to mature to adult stage.\nByrs says the plague could be controlled for just $500,000. She says this is very inexpensive compared to what it will cost the international community if it allows the locust infestation to get out of hand.\nLocusts are only one of several crises affecting the people of Tajikistan. The country had suffered from a seriously cold winter with heavy snowfall. Now that spring is here, the snow is melting, creating the risk of flash floods and landslides. Byrs says more than 400 villages are at risk.\n\"We have sent an assessment mission,\" she added. \"A helicopter has assessed the amount of snow in the mountains in order to have an idea of the households, which would be affected by those flash floods. And, our estimate is that 1,500 households could be affected in one way or another by those flash floods or/and landslides in this area.\"\nThe United Nations and the government of Tajikistan launched an appeal for $25 million in mid-February. Less than half that amount so far has been received.\nByrs says the appeal will probably have to be updated to reflect the threat of landslides and locusts.\nWorld Food Crisis Worsening\nStudy Says Africa's 'Gray' Economy Helps Fight Poverty\nDisplacement Adds to Kenyan Food Price Fears",

        "raw_content": "The Energy 202: California pledges carbon-free electricity by 2045. Gov. Brown says: \"This is not a one-off.\"\nCalifornia Gov. Jerry Brown speaks at a forum in Sacramento in June. (AP Photo/Rich Pedroncelli, File)\nBy many metrics, California is way ahead of other states when it comes to renewable energy. The nation's largest state leads in generating electricity from solar panels and geothermal stations. As of 2016, California got about two-fifths of its electricity from renewable forms of energy.\nBut the state's leaders just declared that is not good enough.\nOn Monday, the state's Democratic governor, Jerry Brown, signed into law a landmark bill committing California to getting 100 percent of its electricity from carbon-free sources by 2045. The state is giving itself a deadline of 2030 to get 60 percent of its power from renewable energy, up from 50 percent by that same year under the state's previous requirements. Brown signed the renewable mandate with the support of Democratic majorities in the state legislature but over the opposition of some state Republicans and electric utilities.\nOther states have likewise legally bound themselves to cutting climate-warming emissions from their electricity sectors. But none, except for Hawaii, have codified its pledge to make its entire electricity sector free of carbon emission.\n\"There's a lot to do,\" Brown said in an interview Monday with The Washington Post. \"This is not a one-off.\"\nIndeed, Brown followed the signing of the bill with an executive order promising to make the entire California economy -- including its sizable fleet of automobiles -- carbon-neutral by that year, too.\nAnd over the weekend, Brown also signed two bills attempting to block new oil drilling off the coast of California. The legislation aims to thwart the Trump administration\u2019s proposed expansion of offshore drilling nationwide by specifically prohibiting the construction of drilling-related infrastructure, including pipelines and piers.\nAltogether, that flurry of legislative and executive activity cements California's place as a bulwark against the Trump administration's efforts to roll back President Barack Obama's climate-change policies.\nThat tit-for-tat began last year after President Trump announced his intention to withdraw from the Paris climate accord. Brown, along with the governors of New York and Washington, vowed to adhere to the international agreement, in which nations voluntarily reduce greenhouse-gas emissions.\nAnd it continues this week when Brown hosts the Global Action Climate Summit, a conference of government and business leaders from around the world. Organizers of the event in San Francisco hope city and state officials will try to outdo each other with their commitments to clean energy. For example, the mayors of New York City and London, Bill de Blasio and Sadiq Khan, respectively, together have already called on other cities to divest from fossil-fuel firms.\nIt's one thing for a city or state to say it wants carbon-free energy. It's another to actually do it. While California gets little electricity from coal, it relied on natural gas for about half the power in the state in 2016, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration. While much of the rest comes from solar and wind, that power flows to homes and businesses only when the sun shines or the wind blows. That means today that intermittent renewable energy requires natural gas generation to fill in the gaps.\nBrown recognizes the need for inventing new kinds of big batteries to store renewably generated power during off-peak hours so it can be unloaded onto to the grid when needed.\n\"This takes expert engineering, scientific research, political collaboration and great wisdom to forge ahead not in one administration but in several,\" Brown said. \"That's why I say we're like at the base camp. I'm looking up at Mount Everest. We've got a big mountain to climb.\"\nProgramming note: The Energy 202 will be in San Francisco for the rest of the week covering the Global Action Climate Summit.\n\u2014 A single power plan hearing: The Environmental Protection Agency will hold a single public hearing on its proposed replacement for the Obama-era Clean Power Plan, its biggest rule change to date. The day-long Oct. 1 hearing will take place in Chicago. The Sierra Club was among the environmental groups complaining about the lack of public forums, saying in a statement \"Trump and Wheeler are scared of the feedback they will get.\" Written comments on the replacement plan, called the Affordable Clean Energy rule, will be taken until the end of October.\nIn this file photo, oil pumps and natural gas burn off in Watford City, N.D. (AP Photo/Charles Rex Arbogast, File)\n\u2014 Trump administration eyeing EPA methane rule: The Trump administration plans to roll back yet another Obama-era rule, this time in a move that will make it easier for energy companies to release methane into the atmosphere, the New York Times reports. A proposed plan from the EPA will weaken a requirement that such companies monitor and fix any leaking methane, a potent greenhouse gas.\nFormer Federal Reserve Board Chair Janet Yellen.

The National Hurricane Center predicts it may still strengthen into a near Category 5 hurricane Tuesday. Current forecasts generally project the storm will make landfall between northern South Carolina and North Carolina\u2019s Outer Banks on Thursday, The Post\u2019s Jason Samenow and Brian McNoldy report. If it lands as a Category 4 storm in North Carolina, it will be the strongest storm on record to come ashore that far north.\nThe National Hurricane Center is warning of a \u201clife threatening storm surge\u201d at the coast, \u201clife-threatening freshwater flooding from a prolonged and exceptionally heavy rainfall event\u201d from the coast to interior sections and \u201cdamaging hurricane-force winds\u201d at the coast and inland. \u201cLike Hurricane Harvey, which stalled over Texas in 2017, Florence could linger over the Southeast for several days after landfall,\u201d Samenow and McNoldy report.\nEvacuations began Monday, as state and local officials in the Carolinas and other states ordered about 1.5 million people to evacuate a stretch of the coastline ahead of Florence\u2019s expected landfall, The Post\u2019s Samenow, Abigail Hauslohner and Kirk Ross report. \u201cThe governors of Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina and South Carolina each declared a state of emergency.

The paper describes a phenomenon in 2009 when a system of currents, including the Gulf Stream, slowed by 30 percent, leading to a 5 inch sea level rise in New England. While currents regained strength after a year, it left questions about what could come next. \"Changes in its velocity could rearrange marine life throughout the hemisphere,\" the report continues. \"If it\u2019s slowing for the long term \u2014 as a growing chorus of scientists fear \u2014 sea levels on the East Coast would rise more quickly, further threatening billions of dollars in shoreside property.\"\nGasoline prices displayed at an Exxon gas station in Woodbridge, Va. in 2016.

But despite rushing out findings that suggested the drug was safe, Avandia had already been labelled as 'GSK's Vioxx', the drug that was the subject of the largest civil action in history.\nSales, which were running at lb4.6m ($9.2m) a day, dropped away immediately, and they are unlikely to recover following the publication of a new study from the University of Toronto. It paints a bleak picture after studying the health profiles of 159,026 patients were who given the drug or another from the family of thiazolidinediones (TZDs), designed to treat type II diabetes. The researchers discovered that 19 per cent, or 30,265 people, died from congestive heart failure (CHD), while a further 7.9 per cent also had CHD and survived, and a similar number had a heart attack.\nBut although the researchers were looking at several TZD drugs, the risks were associated solely with Avandia.",

In 1878, a Spanish ship traveling from the island of Trinidad, wrecked off the coast with a load of coconuts, which washed ashore and were planted. This unfortunate event became the fortunate reason that we now benefit from this tropical paradise near Wellington!\nPalm Beach is the original historic settlement and it features world famous resorts (The Breakers) exquisite architecture and mansions as well as famous shopping and dining on Worth Avenue. Palm Beach simply defines luxury.\nThe area of West Palm Beach and Palm Beach are divided by a coastal waterway, and West Palm Beach has grown into it\u2019s own booming city. The area is more casual than Palm Beach and is punctuated by great shopping, dining, bars, entertainment and diverse cultural activity.\n\u201cLocated along Florida\u2019s Atlantic Ocean Coast, West Palm Beach offers visitors year-round excitement within easy reach of smooth-sand beaches and some of the nation\u2019s most enticing waterways. If you want to see some of the nation\u2019s top musical entertainment, time your visit for SunFest \u2013 Florida\u2019s largest waterfront music festival. And downtown West Palm Beach is home to four retail and entertainment districts: Clematis Street, CityPlace, Northwood Village, and Antique Row. These vibrant pieces of West Palm Beach are lined with fashionable bars, nightclubs, boutiques and collectables. Also of note in West Palm Beach are the Norton Museum of Art, which offers sculpture and other masterworks, the Palm Beach Zoo, and show-stopping events at the downtown Kravis Center for the Performing Arts.\u201d\nBoth destinations are wonderful options for a day or evening away from the horse world in Wellington. Take a respite from the barn and spend the day at the beach before strolling the shops on Worth Avenue, then take in some entertainment in West Palm Beach, or just enjoy a casual night out on the town. Whatever your mood, Palm Beach County offers plenty of alternatives for those seeking the best there is to offer in this region of Florida!\nPosted on March 23, 2018 August 15, 2018 by weradmin\nWEF 6 Officially Marks Halfway Point of WEF Season!",

        "raw_content": "Peter Tork of Monkees fame making a free Massachusetts appearance\nHe may not monkey around much anymore, but former Monkees band member Peter Tork is still creating plenty of music.\nAlong with his blues/jazz band, Shoe Suede Blues, Tork is performing a free concert at the Maynard Public Library on Monday, July 2, to celebrate the library\u2019s one-year anniversary at its new location.\nTork said he\u2019s not sure how he originally discovered Maynard, but said he has been playing at the Sit n\u2019Bull in downtown Maynard \u201coff and on for years now.\u201d\nIn an interview, Tork talked at length about his love of and passion for the blues.\n\u201cWhen I play the blues, I am where I want to be,\u201d he said, calling the blues \u201ccomforting, (like) good, sticky mom food.\u201d\nDespite his career in pop music, Tork said he\u2019s always played the blues \u201ca little bit.\u201d\nShoe Suede Blues, which Tork formed about 10 years ago in California, was originally a blues jam band. They have two albums \u2014 \u201cSaved by the Blues\u201d and \u201cCambria Hotel,\u201d which came out in February \u2014 and tour the country for about 20 weeks a year, according to Tork.\nThe band plays several Monkees songs at each performance, mixing the pop in the songs with a bit of blues.\n\u201cWe do a version of \u2018Last Train to Clarksville\u2019 that is so slow and slinky it brings a whole new meaning,\u201d Tork said.\nPerforming Monkees songs is \u201cgreat fun,\u201d Tork said, but \u201cin terms of pure music, it\u2019s the blues\u201d he prefers.\nThe Monkees were formed in 1966, specifically for a television show of the same name. Tork, along with Mickey Dolenz, Davy Jones and Michael Nesmith won out over close to 500 hopefuls. The band enjoyed meteoric success in the mid-1960s before fading to black in 1970. Since then, there have been various reincarnations, the most recent in the late 1990s.\nA petition to induct the Monkees in the Rock \u2018n Roll Hall of Fame is currently circulating online, signed by approximately 3,000 people, there is a at Tork\u2019s Web site, petertork.com.\nTork said there is a bit of controversy surrounding the petition because how the Monkees came to be.\n\u201cJust because (we) were manufactured doesn\u2019t mean (we) don\u2019t deserve it,\u201d he said.\nTork placed most of the blame on Jann Wenner, the editor and publisher of Rolling Stone magazine who has a great deal of control over nominations. \u201cHe has no right to control (the nominating process),\u201d said Tork, calling the delay \u201cabuse of power.\u201d\nQuick to point out that it was important to keep any talk of the Monkees and the hall of fame in perspective, Tork said there are \u201creal, important issues in the world today,\u201d pointing to the violence in Darfur, Sudan as an example.\nThough they haven\u2019t performed together in years, Tork said he is still in contact with his old band mates. The last time he saw Micky Dolenz and Davy Jones was about six months ago at a funeral for a former member of the Monkees\u2019 backup band.\nIt was the first time they had seen each other for several years, he said. \u201cMicky and I send e-mails from time to time.\u201d\nTork moved from California about three years ago and currently lives in Mansfield, Conn., in the house his parents bought when he was 13.\n\u201cIt (was) just too good a house to let go,\u201d he said",

        "raw_content": "Health predictions for September - WeMystic\nHealth predictions for September\nLooking for the health predictions for September? Stars have shown what to expect for September 2018 in what comes to health. Come and check it out.\nHealth predictions for each zodiac sign\nThe Aryan health must be generally good, but if you want it to truly sustain all the activity involved in the rest of your life, you will need to have some attention. The good news is that the retrograde planetary activity will decrease and, in fact, just after September 8th we can see only two planets in a retrograde situation, which shows a much lighter scenario than the last month.\nAlthough you should start health care as soon as possible, many Aryans might only feel this need around September 11th due to demonstrations in their sixth house. Try to be more careful with your health while maintaining a good posture to preserve the spine. Wear shoes that fit each situation so your ankles and knees are not compromised; tooth care should not be ignored either.\nMainly in September, you must pay special attention to the heart and their emotional state until close to the 4th, the most critical point. Try to treat any depressive state.\nAfter September 4th, you are able to redirect your attention to organs such as the kidneys and the hip region, the most important being the lungs, intestines and also taking attention to your diet. For the kidneys, the alert tends to appear more between September 20th and 27th.\nAfter the 27th, be aware of to the colon, bladder, and sexual organ. Try to relax more from the 22nd on and invest in every form of detox regimen; they seem to be more effective now than in the last month.\nMore predictions for September here.\nLooking for your health predictions for September? Know that health is one of the great strengths for this month, and apart from occasional cases, you should enjoy really good health and much better than last month. One reason for this is that health has become one of the great interests of the Taurus.\nYou will be more concerned about your health, and you seek to accumulate knowledge about yourself. you want to know how your own body works and how he should respond to each signal received. This is a long road to learning, but it is certainly the best weapon to ensure good health.\nThe region of the hips as a whole, should get some attention and you shouldn\u2019t also neglect the care of the kidneys, the colon, the bladder and also the sexual organs until September 8th. If you have some problems here, a healthy and effective diet and detox should work.\nWith the final departure of Saturn, it should leave behind the stressful aspects it offered to those born under the Taurus sign in the past two years. By itself, this setting already causes your energy to soar and your vitality to be high. What\u2019s more, with your health planet engaging with Lion throughout the month, Taurus has another great additive to your health and energy.\nAlso, do not neglect your emotional state. You need positive energies and healthy feelings as they are as important as any diet. Do things that make you happy and keep you well away from depressive states. Depression can be a terrible disease, capable of sucking all the happiness in you. To be healthy you must first be a happy person.\nHealth should not be a problem for those born under Gemini in September. You should learn to think a little more in the long term and not just short-term treatments. This means that you should invest in treatments that give you more solid results, even if they take a little longer to show your potential.\nAnother important reason for long-term plans to be implemented more often is the change in the way Saturn will act on Geminis now. Until then, it was in a beneficial and harmonious configuration, but by September 2nd it must change and this harmony will be lost.\nMore than a disharmonious aspect to the Gemini involving Saturn, this new stress is expected to last a long time. Keep in mind that he will be in Virgo for about another 2 years or so. Make plans that will lead you to think as far as that.\nGemini also faces a solar eclipse in the first half of this month, more precisely on September 11th. At that time, in addition to the eclipse, Gemini will be under the extension of significant 70% of planets in a stressful position.\nIt is easy to see from this angle how much Gemini\u2019s health will be volatile, so do not feel overdone if you decide to take special care. Do not be ashamed of resting more than usual.\nThere\u2019s no problem resting, or even getting some sleep in the middle of the day, if that\u2019s what your body needs. Be patient with yourself and do not forget that such care should extend to the emotional and mental field. An exhausted mind and a shaken emotional one can be a huge gateway to various diseases and problems.\nIn addition, try to keep your soles open to areas such as the colon, bladder, sexual organ, and heart. These are some of the most sensitive areas this month, but we cannot forget the whole region of the head and neck, including throat. Think about taking some craniosacral therapies; massages on the neck and not be neglected with the cold. Those who live in cooler, drier regions should keep their necks always warm.\nThe health predictions for September for those born under the sign of Cancer will be good overall. No major problem seems to be foreseen for them, and the one that comes up must be something very punctual, possibly related to another person, not to you.\nAs long as there is no previous problem with your health, just take some basic care to keep everything in order. Be careful about your daily routine.\nTry to keep a body always relaxed and rested. Avoid abusing your physical capacity and know when it\u2019s time to stop and take a break. Also keep in mind that you should follow a good diet and exercise program.\nFocus your attention primarily on organs and regions such as the heart, liver and kidneys \u2013 they appear to be more sensitive. Improve your cardiovascular condition and quit any traces of sedentary lifestyle you still have.\nJust do not overdo it, because your ankles, knees, thighs and hips seem to need some care. These areas are more susceptible to problems. Also keep an eye on the shoulder region.\nHealth should go easy for those born under the sign of Leo in September. Much of the positive energies and health improvement for them must come from the passage of Saturn from their sign to Virgo. But, even with good winds, some care, especially the basics, should be maintained.\nWith the Solar Eclipse on September 11th, it will be a little more delicate it the health area, therefore you should avoid major transformations and also risky activities such as surgery or more extreme sports.\nThe conjunction of the eclipse with the movement of Saturn to the second House, which by the way is the same House where the eclipse occurs, brings a great desire to change, and this should be used with some moderation, as it can leave your health more sensitive.\nInvest in yourself, but respect the correct timing of each step. Get more involved with diets and detox diets, as they are more supportive of this eclipse, but they must happen almost naturally.\nYou should also focus on regions such as the spine and all alignment of the skeleton, including your knees and ankles. Also include the teeth and intestines in this list, especially the small intestine.\nSome may be having relatively recent problems in the gut area, others may just be dealing with an old problem that has been worsening. In any case, pay a little more attention to this organ.\nHealth will be important now to Virgo, with a lot of significant changes emerging. These changes will be almost all long-term, so you need to learn how to create long-term plans for your health.\nDo everything you need, but do not forget to take more care and preserve yourself as you can in the period of the solar eclipse and the date where Saturn enters your sign, in September 11th and 12th. This eclipse will mess with your image and your self-esteem, so be careful not to overdo it and go beyond your own limits; this is a real risk on such occasions.\nThe health of Libran under this climate of change is strong and the stress levels can be very high. You should be careful and act wisely.\nThe eclipse of September 11th and the transition of Saturn bring changes in spirituality and affect the health of those born under the sign of Libra. Notice that any changes in your spirituality also change the way you see and take care of your health. Maybe the therapies you have using for so long don\u2019t work now, try to evaluate other fields that you have not yet explored. Open your mind.\nIt is also possible that your partner also wants some changes in his health diets and even in his spirituality. Follow these changes closely and do not let him make too many mistakes. Both of you should look for treatments that makes your energy levels higher and keeps your positivity high as well.\nSeptember will bring a lot for those born under the sing of Scorpio. Several decisions to be made at work, taking care for the family, maintaining your love life carefully and several complex situations involving friends. As if that was not enough, there seems to be a lot to explore about the spiritual life.\nYou need to manage your health with care to handle all of these tasks during this month. Health should be excellent for most of you; well satisfying to some; and only a small minority tends to face more difficulties. But absolutely everyone is bound to have difficulties if they are not careful about the above situations.\nDespite this, the news are very good for the scorpions in the health issue, mainly because Saturn is moving from its eleventh house, directly to its second house. The departure of Saturn from Leo not only represents great news for health.\nYour main goal for September is to keep your energy and vitality on the rise. This is a moment for joy, and even with all the difficulties you almost always have a smile on your face. It only shows how much happiness is important to your life and your health.\nMaintaining your good humour all the time and cultivating all sorts of positive emotional state is quite important to elevate your natural immunity.\nDue to the eclipse of September 11th, you should be more cautious and try to have a smaller agenda on September 10th, 11th and 12th. Even if it does not look bad for the you, an eclipse is always a delicate moment and must be closely watched.\nThe heart, which was a delicate organ until now, will finally receive an injection of energy and may require less of you. Now you should pay special attention to the arms, shoulders, and especially of the lungs. Take more outdoor walks and try to visit places with fresh air, such as mountains and forests if possible.\nSeptember will be a kind of delicate month for your health. Although it should be good and without major problems, starting well for most of those born under the sign of Sagittarius, but the issue is related to some wear and tear, which can make making your health a little more fragile.\nUntil at least September 22nd you should pay attention to everything that concerns your health, as it will be more susceptible to several different problems. Try to relax more often. Listen to what your body has to say to you, so you don\u2019t break down. If you need to adjust your diet, do it; even if it just some slight changes, but prefer long-term changes.\nBetween September 1st and 4th you should be more careful, as there will be many planets in stressful alignment these days \u2013 about 40% to 50% of planets can get in that alignment. Besides that, the solar eclipse from September 11th that will make things more delicate and stressful. You should pay more attention and reduce the pace of your activities around the eclipse date.\nOne of the best advice now is to preserve your energy levels and keep everything as high as possible. You are consuming too much of what you have and should turn to therapies that potentiate your reserves and the ability to replenish energy.\nPay special attention to the heart, hips, kidneys and sexual organs, while keeping track of various detoxification regimens. Alternatives, such as crystal therapies, could be important and more efficient after the eclipse date.\nSeptember will be a month of many novelties, adventures and discoveries for those born under the sign of Capricorn. But be aware that all this climate of transformation and exploitation also causes an intense physical and emotional exhaustion.\nOrganize your time and relax a bit whenever you need it. The cosmos has provided a good state for your health now, so that it can bear all that lies ahead, but you must do your part in it. The movement made by Saturn, which now passes over the Virgin, is just one of the cosmic foresight to improve your health.\nKeep your energy levels high, adopt a diet that brings you more strength and that puts you in a good mood. Try to work out, but without exceeding your limits. Working out is very important until September 28th.\nFood is one of the key points of this month, do not forget it. Between September 1st and 15th, you need to pay special attention to your intestines, which may suffer if the diet is not appropriate. In the second half of the month, it is the kidneys that take the lead along the entire hip region. By September 23rd, the heart appears as a point to be guarded and should receive more attention.\nApart from these specific periods and considering the whole month, Capricorn should rely on therapies that also favour the colon, the bladder and especially the sex organs.\nCapricorn\u2019s sex life is very much linked to his health now. This means that too active a life can be harmful, but a very restricted one is not good either. So, you should try to find a balance here.\nOn September 2nd Saturn moves out of its seventh house, one of the most important is about its health, which should be excellent for most Aquarians.\nA lot of Aquarians have been suffering from various health problems, serious or just uncomfortable. But now, with the new planetary movement, you should get a good dose of energy.\nAll of your health shows signs of improvement. On September 2nd, when Saturn enters Virgo, the most sensitive ones will be able to enjoy the first wave of improvement. And it will be repeated on the 23rd, when the Sun forms a harmonic configuration with Aquarius.\nKeep a good exercise program to preserve a more robust muscle tone and increase your energy capacity. Pay special attention to the bladder, colon, and sex organs.\nYour spiritual life is renewing itself and you should feel more comfortable in making changes also in your diet and maybe trying new therapies linked to metaphysics.\nSeptember will be a delicate month for the health of the Pisces. The period between the beginning of the month to the 23rd is the most critical and deserves the greatest care, starting with the solar eclipse on September 11th, which leaves everything more susceptible to problems.\nTake some precautions mainly on September 10th, 11th and 12th. Try to avoid all risky activity, which includes extreme sports, extreme resistance tests, very long journeys and several surgical procedures.\nThere is a great planetary movement coming in and out of a stressful alignment with the Pisces. The number of planets that will be in this alignment during the month will vary, but the fact is that they will be there. This is very important for your health and you should try to maintain good levels of energy. Try to rest and relax whenever you can and get more involved with energy-based therapies that allow you to recharge your batteries.\nWatch out for any problems with the gut, kidneys and hips. Be sure to pay attention to your heart, both physically and metaphorically, as your emotions and the way you deal with love will directly affect the state of your health now.\nKeep your emotional state as positive as possible and you will notice that your body will respond better to all kinds of treatment.",

Without being overly tall, he\u2019s a good target man but is also quick enough to play on the shoulder of the last man. He has good attributes.\u201d\nTymon played fleetingly for Seasiders in 2009/10 and then retuned for a second spell in 2011/12, netting seven goals in 35 appearances in a blue shirt.

        "raw_content": "Harry M. Markowitz, G. Peter Todd, William F. Sharpe (Foreword by)\nIn 1952, Harry Markowitz published \"Portfolio Selection,\" a paper which revolutionized modern investment theory and practice. The paper proposed that, in selecting investments, the investor should consider both expected return and variability of return on the portfolio as a whole. Portfolios that minimized variance for a given expected return were demonstrated to be the most efficient. Markowitz formulated the full solution of the general mean-variance efficient set problem in 1956 and presented it in the appendix to his 1959 book, Portfolio Selection. Though certain special cases of the general model have become widely known, both in academia and among managers of large institutional portfolios, the characteristics of the general solution were not presented in finance books for students at any level. And although the results of the general solution are used in a few advanced portfolio optimization programs, the solution to the general problem should not be seen merely as a computing procedure. It is a body of propositions and formulas concerning the shapes and properties of mean-variance efficient sets with implications for financial theory and practice beyond those of widely known cases. The purpose of the present book, originally published in 1987, is to present a comprehensive and accessible account of the general mean-variance portfolio analysis, and to illustrate its usefulness in the practice of portfolio management and the theory of capital markets. The portfolio selection program in Part IV of the 1987 edition has been updated and contains exercises and solutions.\nHarry Markowitz has applied computer and mathematical techniques to various practical decision making areas. In finance: he presented in an article in 1952 and a book in 1959 \"modern portfolio theory,\" now a standard topic in college courses and widely used by institutional investors for tactical asset allocation, risk control, and attribution analysis.In other areas: Dr. Markowitz developed \"sparse matrix\" techniques for solving very large mathematical optimization problems, now standard in production software for optimization programs. He also designed and supervised the development of the SIMSCRIPT programming language which has been widely used for programming computer simulations of systems like factories, transportation systems, and communication networks. In 1989 Dr. Markowitz received The John von Neumann Award from the Operations Research Society of America for his work in portfolio theory, sparse matrix techniques, and SIMSCRIPT. In 1990 he shared The Nobel Prize in Economics for his work on portfolio theory.\nG. Peter Todd is a Director of Riverview International Group, Inc., where he is responsible for software development. From 1990 to 1998 Dr. Todd was a Vice President in Daiwa Securities Trust's Global Portfolio Research Department (GPRD), where he worked with Harry Markowitz, GPRD's Director of Research.

        "raw_content": "Little interest from energy companies in state land\nCredit: By Hillary Borrud, Capital Bureau | East Oregonian | Published on April 25, 2016 | www.eastoregonian.com ~~\nSALEM \u2013 Democratic secretary of state candidate Brad Avakian wants to lease out public rangelands in Central and Eastern Oregon for renewable energy development.\nAvakian, the state\u2019s labor commissioner, said he would use the secretary of state\u2019s position on the three-member State Land Board to push for wind, solar and geothermal leases on lands that belong to the Common School Fund.\nThe land board, whose other members are the governor and state treasurer, carries out a mandate in the Oregon Constitution to manage the lands to raise money for public schools.\n\u201cWe\u2019re not using any innovative approaches in order to get the best use out of that land,\u201d Avakian said in a recent interview. \u201cI think we should be doing geothermal technologies in Central Oregon. I think we should be doing environmentally-safe solar fields in the east \u2026 And we don\u2019t do any of that on our state lands, which by the way are some of the best in the world suited for these kinds of technologies.\u201d\nAs it turns out, the state already leases some of the parcels for renewable energy projects. Solar, geothermal and wind energy developers have leased land over the years and more applications are in the pipeline, according to Lanny Quackenbush, eastern region manager at the Department of State Lands.\n\u201cYes, we do have some leased \u2013 one solar (undeveloped) in Christmas Valley, and one Geothermal (undeveloped) in Warner Valley,\u201d Quackenbush wrote in an email. \u201cWe had two additional geothermal leases where we only owned subsurface mineral rights, but they\u2019ve been dropped. We\u2019ve had some wind turbine interest at the level of testing where they install meteorological \u2018met\u2019 towers to measure wind speeds over a period of several years.\u201d\nThe department has four applications for these types of wind turbines currently under review.\nState Sen. Richard Devlin, D-Tualatin, is also running for secretary of state in the May 17 Democratic primary. Devlin said it would impractical to lease out much of the rangelands for renewable energy development because a majority of the rangelands are already under 15- to 20-year leases for other uses. Many of the locations are not ideal for solar projects, \u201cand although there are longterm plans to put in grids systems there, there are not the grid systems there.\u201d Devlin said the state Legislature is in a better position to set climate change policy than the State Land Board.\nThe state owns 630,000 acres of rangeland in southeastern Oregon, which ranchers mostly use for grazing. Julie Curtis, a spokeswoman for the Department of State Lands, wrote in an email that 97 percent of the rangelands are already leased.\n\u201cGeothermal and wind energy projects do not take up the entire surface, so there are some options for dual leasing.\u201d\nSource: By Hillary Borrud, Capital Bureau | East Oregonian | Published on April 25, 2016 | www.eastoregonian.com",

While most students were enjoying the holidays, Chayan used the time off to train as a bartender at the European Bartender School in Greece. That allowed him to find a job at De Professor, a bar in Apeldoorn. In fact, he has also worked here as a chef, a dish washer, and runs his own business trading in precious stones. In addition, he is a member of Wittenborg's student organisation SWIFT.\n\u201cI don\u2019t mind sharing my story because I want to show people that being diagnosed with diabetes does not mean your life is over. You can still enjoy all the things you want to and achieve all your goals.\u201d\nDiabetes Type 1 causes the level of glucose (sugar) in your blood to become too high. It happens when your body cannot produce enough insulin, which controls blood glucose. You need daily injections of insulin to keep your blood glucose levels under control.\n\u201cWhen I was diagnosed I was very frustrated for two or three months. I did not understand what was happening and thought my legs were going to be amputated. Then I learned how to manage the condition.\u201d\nChayan joined Wittenborg University of Applied Sciences in 2016 and is about to enter Phase 3 of the IBA in Marketing & Communication programme. He had another setback three weeks ago when his sister, with whom he had a close bond, died unexpectedly and he missed out on exams. He still gets emotional talking about that period.\nHe enjoys studying in the Netherlands and is intent on opening a hotel in Amsterdam after his studies. \u201cMy family has three hotels in India.\u201d Does that mean he had a spoilt upbringing? \u201cNo, not at all. My family built their business from nothing, so I know good as well as bad times, as well as what it means to be hard working.\n\u201cI identify with the Dutch work culture. They are all about getting the job done.\u201d And as a bartender, what is the favourite drink of the Dutch? \"Oh, gin and tonic. Definitely.\"",

        "raw_content": "Policy / Archived Policies / WMA Statement on Health Emergencies Communication and Coordination\nRescinded: WMA Statement on Health Emergencies Communication and Coordination\nApproved by the 55th WMA General Assembly, Tokyo, Japan, October 2004\nand rescinded by the 65th WMA General Assembly, Durban, South Africa, October 2014\nIn late 2002, an outbreak of a new severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) began in southern China. The disease, which was caused by the SARS coronavirus, spread internationally in late February 2003. The most severely affected countries were China, Canada, Singapore and Vietnam, all of which experienced outbreaks before the issue of global alerts by the World Health Organization (WHO). According to WHO data, altogether 8422 cases occurred in 29 countries; in the four afore-mentioned countries, 908 cases were fatal.\nSARS was an especially difficult new disease to diagnose and treat \u2013 it passed readily from person to person, required no vector, had no particular geographic affinity, mimicked the symptoms of many other diseases, took its heaviest toll on hospital staff, and spread internationally with alarming ease. The spread of SARS along the routes of international air travel emphasizes the fact that pathogens know no boundaries and reinforces the critical need for global public health strategies.\nThe main outbreaks of SARS occurred in areas with well-developed health systems. If SARS had become established in areas with weak health infrastructure, it is unlikely that containment would have been achieved so quickly. But even in well-developed health care systems, certain very significant flaws were demonstrated during this epidemic:\nLack of effective real-time, two-way communication channels to front-line physicians;\nLack of adequate resources, stockpiles of medication and supplies to deal with this type of catastrophe;\nLack of surge capacity within acute care and public health systems.\nA gap between public health authorities (national and international) and clinical medicine was demonstrated during this episode. At its September 2003 General Assembly, the WMA adopted a Resolution on SARS that: \u201cstrongly encouraged the World Health Organization to enhance its emergency response protocol to provide for the early, ongoing and meaningful engagement and involvement of the medical community globally.\u2026\u201d\nB. BASIC PRINCIPLES\nThe international community must be constantly alert to the threat of emerging disease outbreaks and ready to respond with a global strategy. The Global Outbreak Alert and Response Network (GOARN) of WHO has a significant role to play in global health security by:\ncombating the international spread of outbreaks;\nensuring that appropriate technical assistance reaches affected states rapidly; and\ncontributing to long-term epidemic preparedness and capacity-building.\nThe WMA has been actively involved in GOARN, where appropriate. The role of GOARN must, however, be acknowledged and actively promoted within the medical profession.\nSovereign states have a responsibility to address the health needs within their borders. Today, however, many urgent health security risks are not confined by national boundaries. Early detection, through effective national surveillance systems, of unusual disease events that threaten public health, and international cooperation between WHO, its member states, and non-governmental partners like the WMA, are required to effectively respond to public health emergencies of international concern. A strengthening of the International Health Regulations to broaden their scope to include new and future health emergencies and enable WHO to actively assist States in responding to international health security threats will provide additional tools for global epidemic control.\nEffective communication between WHO and the WMA, the WMA and its member National Medical Associations (NMAs), and NMAs and physicians can strengthen the information exchange between WHO and its Member States during public health emergencies.\nPhysicians are often the first point of contact with the emergence of new diseases; therefore they are in a position to aid in all elements of diagnosis, treatment and reporting of affected patients and prevention of disease. Physicians with key expertise must be incorporated into the health emergency decision-making process so that the impact of national and international directives on clinical settings and patient care is understood.\nWHO and its Member States must work with the WMA and NMAs to proactively address the safety of patients and of health professionals involved in caring for the sick during outbreaks of new diseases. Delays in identifying and distributing supplies of protective equipment to health professionals and their patients exacerbate anxiety and risk of spread of infectious disease. National and international systems that stockpile relevant and adequate supplies and rapidly move them to affected areas should be created or enhanced. All the principles employed in the safeguarding of patient safety should be respected and followed in emergencies such as SARS.\nThat the WMA and member NMAs should work closely with WHO, national governments, and other professional groups to jointly promote the elements of this Statement.\nThat the WMA urge physicians to a) be alert to the occurrence of unexplained illnesses and deaths in the community, b) be knowledgeable of disease surveillance and control capabilities for responding to unusual clusters of diseases, symptoms and presentations, and assiduous in the timely reporting of suspicious cases of illness to appropriate authorities; c) utilize appropriate procedures to prevent exposure of infectious pathogens to themselves and others; d) understand the principles of risk communication so that they can communicate clearly and non-threateningly with patients, their families, and the media about issues such as exposure risks and potential preventive measures (e.g., vaccinations); and e) understand the roles of the public health, emergency medical services, emergency management, and incident management systems in response to a health crisis and the individual health professional\u2019s role in these systems.\nThat the WMA encourage physicians, NMAs, and other medical societies to participate with local, national, and international health authorities in developing and implementing disaster preparedness and response protocols for natural infectious disease outbreaks. These protocols should be used as the basis for physician and public education.\nThat the WMA call on NMAs to promote and support WHO\u2019s GOARN as a control coordinating entity in combating global health security threats.\nThat the WMA call for the establishment of a strategic partnership agreement with WHO, so that in case of epidemics, health communication can be stepped up considerably and two-way flow of information ensured.\nThat WHO should coordinate the development of an inventory based on existing stockpiles of supplies, so that such supplies can be rapidly deployed and accessed by physicians involved in the care of victims.\nThat WHO should strengthen the International Health Regulations to broaden their scope to include reporting of new and future health emergencies, and to enable WHO to actively assist States in responding to international health security threats.\nThat international agreements should be proactively explored to facilitate the movement of health professionals who are involved in the management of epidemics.\nThat research in the field of emergency preparedness should be enhanced by national governments and NMAs where appropriate, to better understand current flaws in the system and how to improve preparedness in the future.\nThat education and training of physicians should be modified to take into account the realities and specific needs required in the event of emergencies, and to ensure that due diligence is paid to patient and health care worker safety when managing patients with acute infectious diseases.\nThat physicians everywhere in the world, including those in Taiwan, have unlimited access to WHO programs and information concerning health emergencies.\nCommunication, Epidemiology, GOARN, Health Emergencies, Prevention, SARS, WHO",

        "raw_content": "The History of Breast Implants\nBreast implants have been both a bane and a boon for many women. Click here to see the \"Famous People, Infamous Busts\" slideshow.\nIn the spring of 1962, Timmie Jean Lindsey was a 30-year-old Texan with a past. She had six kids, a deadbeat ex-husband, and an ex-boyfriend who had talked her into tattooing his name on her chest. She wanted to rid herself of the garish tattoo, but at Houston\u2019s Jefferson Davis hospital, she met a doctor who had an even more daring idea: After having felt a warm silicone bag of blood and thinking it felt awfully nice, he and a colleague had recently invented a new breast implant\u2014and needed a human guinea pig. \u201cThat\u2019s how it all started,\u201d says the 80-year-old \u00adLindsey, on the 50th anniversary of the first silicone implantation.\nLindsey\u2019s C-cup breasts certainly attracted more male attention, but there were some drawbacks. With her new boobs, she no longer fit into all her clothes, and within five or ten years, she says, the implants had hardened and were causing shooting pains. Like those of many of the women who wear them, the fortunes of silicone implants have waxed and waned in the last half-\u00adcentury. This medical advancement of the early sixties launched two \u00adcultural tsunamis: a clamor for implants and then, in the nineties, a clamor against them amid complaints of leakage and infection. Now they are back: bigger, safer, and more popular than ever. According to the American Society of Plastic \u00adSurgeons, doctors in the U.S. performed 307,000 breast augmentations last year\u2014making the procedure the country\u2019s most sought-after cosmetic surgery.\nIt certainly raises the question, How did so many women \u00adbecome so interested in having a bigger bosom than nature intended? Blame it on the media and \u201cwomen feeling they must compete with what is essentially a pornographic aesthetic,\u201d says Victoria Pitts-Taylor, director of the Center for the Study of Women and Society at the City University of New York.\nIt wasn\u2019t always so. For much of Western history, large breasts were considered a burden, even a handicap. And for those who did want to enhance their assets, there was the fear of dubious implant materials. In the early 20th century, surgeons tried fillers like glass and ivory balls, peanut oil, goat\u2019s milk, ox cartilage, honey\u2014and paraffin, which melted in high heat. Enter the plastics revolution\u2014and a new breed of implant contenders: Teflon, nylon, and Plexiglas.\nFamous People, Infamous Busts\nThis 1985 picture says it all: even Henry Kissinger couldn\u2019t resist gawking at Parton\u2019s famous assets.\nAs technology improved, so did demand. Women were lured by pneumatic Hollywood bombshells like Rita Hayworth, Jayne \u00adMansfield, and a Las Vegas showgirl named Tempest Storm, whose 44DD-cup moneymakers would be famously insured by Lloyd\u2019s of London for a million dollars by the mid-fifties.\nSome women went to great extremes for the ample look. In 1964, Carol Doda, who pioneered topless go-go dancing, at San Francisco\u2019s Condor club, underwent dozens of injections of \u00adsilicone\u2014a practice first favored by prostitutes in Japan during the American occupation after World War II. Soon the inflationary technique was de rigueur on the burlesque circuit. But such injections were rife with problems. Like paraffin, silicone had a mind of its own and tended to migrate, bunch up, or turn rock solid. (By the mid-sixties, federal regulators had restricted its use.)\nOver the years, there have been tremendous advancements in surgical techniques, with fewer infections and a significant \u00adreduction in hardening. Still, even today there are occasional instances of leakage, causing some women, including Sharon \u00adOsbourne, to have their implants removed (she turned them into paper weights). And just this past winter, a French manufacturer was arrested for using unapproved \u201cindustrial grade\u201d silicone in models that were sold to doctors in 65 countries. But by and large, the majority of implant customers are happy with their enlargements.\nWill silicone breasts stick around long enough to celebrate their centennial? Probably not. Now, doctors are working with fat cells from other parts of the body that can be successfully transplanted into breasts. As Tom Biggs, a former \u00adsurgeon who was a medical resident during Lindsey\u2019s 1962 procedure, proclaims: \u201cThe future is fat!\u201d",

        "raw_content": "High Life Trailer: Robert Pattinson Is Probably Going to Have Sex (and Die) in Space\nCourtesy A24\nYeah, sure, fine, Ryan Gosling left Earth and is getting heaps of praise for it, but an extremely on-brand Robert Pattinson is leaving the solar system. In the first trailer for the Chocolat director Claire Denis\u2019s upcoming English-language feature debut, High Life, Pattinson\u2014as well as a cadre of convicts played by Andr\u00e9 3000 and Mia Goth, among others, and a doctor played by Juliette Binoche\u2014are blasting out of the atmosphere, heading toward a black hole and, possibly, something more nefarious. It\u2019s an erotic thriller set on a doomed spaceship. Need we say more?\n\u201cSince we left the solar system, radio silence,\u201d Pattinson begins narrating at the beginning of the trailer. \u201cAlmost all of us are still alive.\u201d Ominous. He wanders the corridors of the spaceship, plays with a baby, lies in bed looking angsty. Then, he starts to explain what\u2019s really going on: \u201cWe were scum, trash, refuse that didn\u2019t fit into the system,\u201d he says, \u201cuntil someone had the bright idea of recycling us to serve science.\u201d\nThat someone, it seems, is Juliette Binoche, who plays Dr. Dibs, who\u2019s accompanying the load of death-row inmates on a one-way journey into a black hole. On the way, though, the deranged doctor\u2014herself a violent criminal, according to IndieWire\u2019s review\u2014takes to conducting bizarre fertility experiments on the passengers. (\u201cWhy do you keep taking their sperm?\u201d someone asks her at one point.) Meanwhile, the ship keeps trudging along toward the black hole.\nThe film has been long awaited\u2014not least by Barry Jenkins, the director of Moonlight and If Beale Street Could Talk and a self-professed \u201cClaire Denis stan.\u201d Zadie Smith was, at one point, attached to script it; the artist Olafur Eliasson designed the spaceship. The trailer gives us just enough to get the gist of the film without really telling us what it\u2019s all about. (It gets a bit jargony at moments\u2014\u201cWe had to begin the deceleration maneuver so the ship could approach a black hole,\u201d Pattinson narrates at one point\u2014but then again, we\u2019re probably not in a galaxy far, far away anymore.) There\u2019s creepy neon lighting, a creepier score, and, apparently, something called \u201cthe fuckbox.\u201d And eventually, Pattinson is the only one left.\nAlso, somewhere in the middle of the trailer, Binoche says, \u201cI know I look like a witch.\u201d Well, it\u2019s a good moment for witchery.\nRobert PattinsonOlafur EliassonZadie SmithAndre 3000",

        "raw_content": "Tactics used to protect guilty men\nIn the case of the two women who have accused Patrick Brown of sexual misconduct, it will be interesting to see if his defence team follows the age-old tactics that are used to defend men accused of sexual assault. The public can be easily fooled by a slick PR strategy that capitalizes on the fact that nobody wants to believe their \u201cgood\u201d guy has a bad side. From his latest behaviour it\u2019s obvious that Patrick Brown now has a defence team in place whose first order of business was to repair the damage Brown did by showing weakness when he resigned. They would likely have advised him that showing strength scares witnesses away and showing weakness attracts witnesses to pounce on him. There are four key tactics used to defend men who are charged with sexual misconduct.\nAbsolute denial combined with hints of defamation charges: The accused is usually advised to come out loud and strong, denying everything and suggesting legal action. This is designed to gain public support \u2013 the public naturally follow someone who shows strength \u2013 but it is also designed to scare witnesses from testifying. Nobody wants to be on the wrong side of public opinion or get into a costly defamation trial. If the perpetrator can get public opinion on his side, and convince people he\u2019s going to sue for defamation, witnesses will crawl into hiding. Patrick Brown has now come out strongly denying everything and suggesting he\u2019ll sue CTV for defamation. Yet CTV claims they have not been notified by anyone from Brown\u2019s team. Which indicates he is simply bluffing to scare witnesses into hiding. If he doesn\u2019t sue them, it\u2019s a strong indication that there may be some truth to the allegations. The first woman who alleged Patrick Brown assaulted her at a party said that she attended it with a friend, but now the \u201cfriend\u201d doesn\u2019t remember being there with her. I\u2019m told this happens a lot when public shaming occurs. Witnesses feign memory loss and make themselves out to be unreliable because they don\u2019t want to face public shaming or stand up beside a victim who is being shamed. They would rather abandon her than tell the truth. We assume people will defend the truth, they will do the right thing because a just society needs people to stand up for the truth. The sad fact is few witnesses do, unless forced by the courts in a defamation trial, or criminal investigation. Personally, I believe that the women who accused Patrick Brown are victims of his misconduct and victims of the court of public opinion (which can be even worse). I find it highly unlikely that any woman would come out had she known in advance that her friend wouldn\u2019t stand up beside her. That a very weak man calling himself her \u201cfriend\u201d has backed out of defending the truth is the real shame. That kind of immorality eats away at a person, I hope she takes comfort in the fact that his shame will haunt him for the rest of his life.\nBlame the victim: This includes attacking her entire history and showing her as promiscuous. I have no doubt the next stage of Brown\u2019s strategy will be to get social media focused on the background of both his accusers. They may try to \u201cslut\u201d shame them or create the idea that these victims somehow set Patrick Brown up as a political stunt. This serves two purposes. It will stir up hate on social media and it will protect him from other witnesses who may be thinking of coming forward. Now is the time women, who may have similar experiences with him need to stand up for the truth. We must come together to push social change forward, and build a just society for our children.\nElicit sympathy for the man accused: This is the next stage that Patrick Brown will need to work at. Sympathy isn\u2019t as easy to achieve for a powerful man as it is for a younger man. Remember the case of Brock Turner who was caught in the act of sexually assaulting a woman behind a dumpster? His legal team tried to focus on his accomplishments and the bright future he had ahead of him \u2013 they suggested the victim\u2019s accusations would hurt Turner\u2019s future. The same is being said about Patrick Brown. The victims are now being accused of ruining his future in politics, no thought or comment is given to their futures, and his media supporters would have us all ignore that Brown may have tried to force himself on two intoxicated women.\nPromote Doubt: By promoting enough doubt, the perpetrator aims to steer the focus off of the facts and onto the unreliability of the women involved. Evidence will be distorted, past events and statements taken out of context, their friends questioned, and witnesses scared into hiding \u2013 anything that will discredit the woman is fair game. Distorting evidence equalizes the victim and the perpetrator. The Toronto Sun has now come out with a story claiming Patrick Brown is innocent simply because one of the victims got the timing of the event wrong \u2013 the timing doesn\u2019t change that he might have forced himself on her while she was intoxicated, or that another woman stated that she too had a similar experience. Both accounts suggest a predatory pattern. That he had an intoxicated woman employee alone in his bedroom is the issue everyone should be questioning. What employer would be fool enough to do that?\nMemory of an event is usually triggered by the emotion a woman feels when facing sexual assault or misconduct. They might feel angry, or powerless, and it is that memory that stays with you no matter how much you try to forget it. Women who have had such experiences usually tell and warn their friends about it. The timing might blur and details surrounding the event might fade, but the actual event itself and those feelings of anger, frustration, and helplessness don\u2019t fade away. Every time you hear about another woman experiencing sexual assault or misconduct you are reminded of your own experience. To jump to the conclusion that the women were lying simply because one got her timing off, or because one of them was friends with a reporter doesn\u2019t explain why Patrick Brown took an intoxicated female employee to his bedroom. These other issues are designed to promote doubt.\nThe media seems to be glossing over an extremely important issue that is highly questionable, and something the #MeToo and #TimesUp campaigns are trying to address. That Patrick Brown, or someone on his defence team, may have started a social media campaign designed to shame his two accusers. This attack campaign released the names of the two women over social media. When it comes to sexual assault or misconduct the standard practice is to protect women who report the incident from backlash until an investigation has concluded. Most employers know this and take extra effort to protect their identity and create a safe work environment for all women. Why hasn\u2019t the Ontario PC party called for an investigation into this? Why hasn\u2019t Patrick Brown called in an outside investigator?\nBy identifying the women by name over social media, has Patrick Brown\u2019s team crossed the line from civil to barbaric?\nIn a sexual misconduct or assault case, the perpetrator will often come up with a parallel story to explain why they were with the victim, and/or to fool the public into thinking them innocent. For example, Patrick Brown originally denied categorically that any of the events the two women spoke of had happened. But his former girlfriend has come out saying she watched him go to his bedroom with the woman employee, and then come down later to immediately drive her home. What girlfriend doesn\u2019t think something is wrong when her boyfriend rushes out of the bedroom with a drunk woman and immediately drives her home?\nI expect Patrick Brown\u2019s strategy will involve all of the tactics above. The sad fact is that even if the women\u2019s allegations are proven true, the court of public opinion has already shamed them, and once the masses take a position they don\u2019t want to be told they were wrong. Most people won\u2019t remember that these women were forced to endure pubic shaming and social media attacks just because they came out with the truth. The public still sees strong women who stand up to powerful men as suspect, as women who \u201crock the boat for attention\u201d \u2013 instead of women who are trying to stop powerful men from abusing their positions.\nSocial change is coming, but it will be a long time before the public understands the personal cost women endure by speaking up to protect others.\nGuilty men fear the truth\nFinally women are coming out on sexual assault, and shining a spotlight on men who use their positions of power to exploit women. But, as with all change, there are people who don\u2019t like this new world. They scream that it isn\u2019t fair, that men in positions of power should continue to be protected, and the women who accuse them should be scrutinized. They ignore the flaws in the democratic system that allow the media to shame women into silence. Studies show that 80 percent of sexual assaults are not reported, in most cases it is because women don\u2019t want to face the shame and humiliation society hurls at them. Protecting these women is the first step toward moving our society forward.\nLast week. when two women came forward to charge Patrick Brown with sexual misconduct, reporter Christie Blatchford, master of spin, came out ranting that the two women should have faced the media \u201cbecause fundamental to a democracy is\u2026 the right to face your accuser and make full answer in defence.\u201d She didn\u2019t explain why she believes that facing the accuser and defending yourself has to be done on a public stage for the media. Nor did she admit that it is the media that so often distorts the truth. Finally our society is starting to realize that this shaming makes innocent victims suffer in silence rather than come forward. Exposing the accuser to ridicule and shame, to the spin that media personalities want to weave around them isn\u2019t democratic \u2013 it\u2019s archaic.\nMake no mistake, Patrick Brown will face his accusers and he\u2019ll get a chance to defend himself if he wants that. Every accuser puts herself at risk of being sued. Blatchford ignores this and laments that Brown has already been tried in a court of public opinion \u2013 she forgets it is the same court that has tried and hung so many women who sought justice. Take for instance, Monica Lewinsky \u2013 when it finally came out that she was telling the truth, the media refused to admit their own responsibility over the damage they had caused to her reputation. Nobody paid a penalty but her, and the friends and staff who protected President Clinton walked away unscathed. The media personalities who were directly to blame for damaging her reputation never had to be accountable. They didn\u2019t care what they had done, and they didn\u2019t apologize.\nDemocracy isn\u2019t perfect. It\u2019s a constantly changing idea, a moving target that social change tries to improve. It is flawed. It allows people to hold positions of power over others, and if this power is held by someone who abuses it, people get hurt. It isn\u2019t just men in power who cause harm, there are women like Blatchford who have a pulpit but no sense of responsibility, and they use their words to damage others. What she does too often isn\u2019t reporting, or journalism\u2026 it\u2019s public shaming.\nToday our society is trying to make up for the decades of shame and public humiliation forced on women who reported sexual assault. Blatchford claims she is worried that all men in positions of power will become easy targets. And I worry too. I worry that the gutter style media is the very noose that will hang innocent men.\nDemocracy is founded on the desire for fairness \u2013 and it is this desire for fairness that is guiding the social changes we are seeing today. The far right accuses women of claiming victimhood, but today women have gone far beyond being victims. Women are angry, they don\u2019t forget \u2013 they want to even the playing field. If men in leadership are to be safe from false accusations, it will be up to the media to become more accountable for our role in shaping public opinion.\nThe two women who reported Patrick Brown have inspired other women. But what I find inspiring about them is the very thing Blatchford can\u2019t stand \u2014 they have shown women a path to reporting sexual misconduct that doesn\u2019t involve being publicly identified, humiliated and shamed. I believe these two women have opened the floodgates, and the sad fact is that there are few women over 40 who don\u2019t have a story, or two, to tell of men who abused their position of power.\nI remember a time in 2010 when I was running for Mayor of Toronto and was on a show with the other top four candidates. The show helped my numbers in the polls, so the next time I saw the host I asked if I might get on his show again. Always kind and friendly, he suggested we meet over lunch to discuss. My assistant and I met him at Grano\u2019s on Yonge Street, and the three of us ordered our lunch. Not five minutes in he asked me if I would have sex with him. My assistant almost spit his drink all over the table. I politely told the host that I loved my husband and would never do that. I then excused myself, went to the washroom and called my campaign manager. My manager was at first angry that I was alone with a talk show host, but when I explained that my assistant was actually sitting there with us and had heard the entire thing, his anger turned to shock. He advised me that if I didn\u2019t want to \u201ctake one for the team,\u201d then I should excuse myself and leave. I followed his instruction, and later asked my EA what he and the host had talked about while I was in the washroom. He told me he questioned the talk show host to see if asking directly for sex actually worked for him. The host said that it worked 50 percent of the time. Needless to say, I never got on his show again. His refusal to have me on his show simply because I wouldn\u2019t have sex with him, made it harder to compete with the men I was running against who appeared on his show several times.\nAnd now, eight years later, I question if I should have spoken up. By keeping silent, have I allowed him to sexually prey on other women? If you are a woman and have experienced a talk show host who used a similar line on you, please reach out to me (sarah@sarahthomson.ca). Let\u2019s talk. Your identity will be protected.\nAs the publisher of Women\u2019s Post, I believe there should be a way for women to report sexual misconduct without having to face shame and humiliation, and without having to drag men through the court of public opinion. The world is changing, you can fight the change or you can embrace it and try to make the world just a little more balanced for all.\nBut be careful of the likes of Christie Blatchford \u2014 she is the kind of person who will invite you to a party at her house and act like your friend. But, years later, when everyone is accusing you of lying and kicking you, she\u2019ll sneak in a few kicks just to fit in with the guys \u2013 and then later, when the truth comes out, she\u2019ll hope that you didn\u2019t notice how many times she kicked you. I noticed.",

        "raw_content": "Doctoring the results: bias against female students unmasked\nMany women in Japan have recently discovered what they suspected all along that their dream of becoming doctors was shattered by the decision of several prestigious medical schools across the country that rigged their entry exam papers. These were marked down to stop them from pursuing a career in the medical field and ensure that more men than women were enrolled. The scandal, first uncovered at the Tokyo Medical University, quickly extended to other medical schools.\nLast week the school admitted that the practice has been customary for more than ten years. Tetsuo Yukioka, Director of Tokyo Medical University in a press conference stated \u201cWe deeply apologize for having inconvenienced and caused people pain with such a serious scandal [\u2026] Society is changing rapidly and we need to respond to that and any organization that fails to recognize women will grow weak. And we fail to contribute to society.\u201d He also stated that he was not aware of the rigging and that he was never involved.\nThe news came to light during an investigation regarding the son of an education ministry official and how he was allegedly admitted in order for the school to obtain research funds. Both the bureaucrat and the former head of the school were charged with bribery. The revelations have generated such a wide echo around the world to prompt the education ministry to order an investigation at many medical schools across Japan. Following this outbreak, the Education Ministry asked many medical schools to provide six years-worth of data on the genders and ages of all applicants.\nThe Tokyo Medical University kept the female student population at 30 percent, due to concerns about female doctors\u2019 leaving their career following pregnancy and to take care of their children. The message is clear: since women will eventually quit their jobs to start a family, there is no point bothering with education! Let\u2019s let the men do the heavy lifting.\nIn Japan women are massively underrepresented in politics, certain professions including medicine, and as company executives, accounting for more than 40% of the workforce. According to a 2017 World Economic Forum survey, Japan ranked as 114th in a list of 144 countries for gender equality. The lack of female doctors positions Japan well behind other advanced countries. According to the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), in 2015 Japan had 21 percent of female doctors against the OECD average of 45 percent.\nThat Japanese companies are more likely to promote men than women was known; however, the malpractice carried nowadays by educational institutions of denying female applicants entry in one of the most advanced economies in the world carries a very powerful weight. When it comes to equal opportunities, some societies are way behind.\nInterestingly enough, a Japanese Internet portal Joy.net conducted a survey of Japanese female doctors, asking for their opinion on Tokyo Medical University\u2019s test score manipulation, and found their responses rather surprising as they expressed understanding as to why the score was rigged. In other words, if even women justify the reason behind the rigging, that demonstrates that acceptance of gender inequality is so deeply ingrained in the female psyche that women do not fully embrace the concept of being on par with men; or to put it bluntly they have come to accept dishonesty and discrimination.\nFurthermore, if it is true that women are more likely to quit their jobs after they get married and have children, then it is time for their male counterparts to take their share of childrearing responsibilities and for the Japanese society to create a work environment where it\u2019s easier for female doctors to return to the workforce after maternity leave. In other words, it is time to start a discussion nationwide about putting in place a gender balanced policy in all professions across the country.",

        "raw_content": "WWF Statement on Bering Strait Port Access Route Study\nIn response to today\u2019s US Coast Guard release of the Bering Strait Port Access Route Study, World Wildlife Fund (WWF) issued the following statement from Elena Agarkova, senior program officer and shipping expert:\n\u201cThe US Coast Guard is taking a huge step forward in developing common-sense approaches to responsibly reduce the risk of maritime incidents in some of the most ecologically significant areas of the Bering Strait. This plan will make shipping safer in the Bering Strait region for mariners, local communities and wildlife alike.\n\u201cShipping traffic in the rough and poorly-charted Bering Strait region is on the rise, yet there are no shipping-specific regulations in place to help prevent accidents. By looking at the areas to be avoided (ATBAs) recommended by the Coast Guard, shippers can decide to play it safe and stay away from sensitive areas.\n\u201cMoving forward, the US Coast Guard would benefit by continuing to work in collaboration with Russia to ensure bilateral support for the protection of people and wildlife in this fragile area.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Top \u00bb Lockers and Storage Units \u00bb Coin Operated Lockers\nCoin operated lockers have the dual benefit of restricting locker usage while simultaneously earning expense money for an organization. These lockers feature solid plastic construction that will not corrode, stands up to heavy usage, never requires repainting, and is highly vandal resistant. Organizations that lack a static group of users may want to strongly consider investing in solid plastic lockers that are activated by a coin mechanism. Such facilities are typically open to the public\u2014some 24/7\u2014and require a method of regulating locker use among a constantly shifting, fluctuating, and dynamic user base.\nWhile it may seem odd that a facility would require a user to pay for using a locker, it is not an unreasonable policy. Use of any facility, public or private, is a privilege that is determined by the discretion of the organization. In places that are open to the public up to 24 hours a day, 7 days per week, there must be a way of regulating who uses a locker. Otherwise, people who are not using the facility itself could walk in off the streets, store their belongings at will, and secure the unit with their own personal lock. This would prevent patrons of the organizations from having access to the unit\u2014something that would work against the establishment\u2019s PR.\nTo counter potential abuse of this nature, many airports provide coin operated lockers for travelling guests to use. Airports see thousands of people moving through their facilities daily. There are never enough lockers in any airport to provide accommodation to each and every one of these individuals. Installing paid used lockers helps ensure that the only people who will make use of the units are those who are willing to pay a small sum of money to do so. This also incentivizes person\u2019s to use the unit for a shorter period of time because they must also pay to open the locker to retrieve their personal belongings.\nMany shopping malls have also installed coin operated lockers for the very same reason. All of us have probably been to the mall at some point in time just to walk around and look. Malls do not discourage this because people who see things they like often return to buy these things at a later date. However, just as it is in the case with airports, there simply is not enough space even in a mall to give every person walking around a personal storage unit. Lockers that require a small fee are a way of showing respect to paying shoppers who have come to the mall not just to look, but to also spend money. The fact that it costs only one or two coins to operate the lock nevertheless discourages people who refuse to spend any money at all from using the units.\nOther organizations who use coin operated lockers apply their use in a slightly different way. Rather than making people pay money, they provide legitimate guests with tokens that will activate the locks. This is an ideal way for a private health club, day spa, or amusement park to ensure that only members or paying guests are using locker space.",

Halme made the switch to England with the view to stepping up to first team action following an adjustment period.\nA foot injury picked up during a training session following his arrival, which resulted in surgery, ended with Halme being ruled out for the rest of the 2017/18 campaign as he spent nearly nine months on the sidelines before finally making his debut for the club against Queens Park Rangers in the Professional Development League in late August.\nHalme has put in a number of strong performances for the Under-23s since his return, particularly against Bolton Wanderers during their first defeat of the season in September, but picked up a knock last month against Notts County in Premier League Cup action which saw him sidelined once again.\nWho are Leeds United goalkeepers Will Huffer and Kamil Miazek? Whites Bristol City options profiled\nThe 20-year-old though returned to the fold last Friday as the Whites fell to an Under-23s defeat to Birmingham City at Thorp Arch but is yet to be included in a senior match day squad.\nBielsa, who was speaking ahead of this weekend's Championship clash with Bristol City, revealed that Pontus Jansson has now joined fellow defenders Luke Ayling and Gaetano Berardi on the treatment table leaving United with one recognised fully fit senior centre-back in club captain Liam Cooper.\nThe Argentine though said he would be happy to use the young Finnish defender if needed: \"[Kalvin] Phillips can play as a centre-back or Aapo Halme is another possibility. He\u2019s ready.\"\nWhen quizzed about his fitness following a long lay-off the 63-year-old responded: \"He is now well and he has played. I see him with a good level but you draw conclusions only on the games.\"",

For without the shedding of blood, there is no forgiveness.\nChristianity without the cross and blood of Jesus is a dead and damned religion. Christianity that is centered upon Jesus, His death, and His blood providing for our forgiveness is the heart, soul, and truest connection that brings us into a real relationship with Him.\n1 Cor 5:6-8 NKJV\n6 Your glorying is not good. Do you not know that a little leaven leavens the whole lump? 7 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.\n\"Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.\nProv 13:15 KJV\nGood understanding giveth favour:\nbut the way of transgressors is hard.\nGod tells us we need to be reminded that living apart from Jesus Christ and His word is way more difficult than it is living for Him.\nNah 1:6 NKJV\nWho can stand before His indignation? And who can endure the fierceness of His anger? His fury is poured out like fire, And the rocks are thrown down by Him.\nJesus is the living Word of God. With Him it\u2019s not part or partial. It\u2019s all or none.\n\"Let your waist be girded and your lamps burning;\nHeb 9:27 NKJV\nAnd as it is appointed for men to die once, but after this the judgment,\nThe Blood has the power to: forgive us of our sins, bring us into God\u2019s family, gives us fellowship with the body of Christ, make us more like Jesus, give us His peace, overcome the enemy, disarm the enemy, and cleanse your conscience from a meaningless life without God.\nAnd as they were eating, Jesus took bread, blessed and broke it, and gave it to the disciples and said, \"Take, eat; this is My body.\"\n27 Then He took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, \"Drink from it, all of you. 28 For this is My blood of the new covenant, which is shed for many for the remission of sins. 29 But I say to you, I will not drink of this fruit of the vine from now on until that day when I drink it new with you in My Father's kingdom.\"\n24 and when He had given thanks, He broke it and said, \"Take, eat; this is My body which is broken for you; do this in remembrance of Me.\" 25 In the same manner He also took the cup after supper, saying, \"This cup is the new covenant in My blood. This do, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me.\"\nRemember, ruminate, and reflect often on Jesus and His death for you, He is your Passover lamb.",

        "raw_content": "Mauritania, with a population of 3.2 million, is largely comprised of desert. It had a border dispute with southern neighbour Senegal in 1989, and its northernmost tip goes right into the Maghreb. There are inter-ethnic conflicts (between \u201cArabised\u201d and black Mauritanians), a history of military coups and the militarisation of governance. While al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM) has been operating in the surrounding region, Mauritania has largely remained out of the headlines. Yet, despite campaigns to check the infiltration of Islamist extremism into Mauritanian society the threat remains active to the country. Mauritania has several socio-economic conditions that pose risks. Mauritania is one of the traditional routes for the trafficking of drugs between South America and Europe, and is known for kidnapping of foreign nationals for ransom. The country\u2019s military lacks cohesion, which explains the many coup d\u2019\u00e9tats. There are also ethnic rivalries. Governance is weak and clientelistic, with current calls for reform. As a desert country, there are swaths of ungoverned spaces beyond the vigilance of the state. Mauritania has deployed troops to neighbouring Mali as part of the UN\u2019s Multidimensional Integrated Stabilising Mission in Mali (MINUSMA). The aim is to check the spread of militant extremism in the region and insulate its own long border with Mali. While this regionalist gesture is to be applauded, the interplay of the above conditions means that Islamism will remain a threat to Mauritania in 2017 and beyond.\nWith a population of approximately 16 million people and covering 1.25 million square kilometres of land, Mali is a large and landlocked country. Both US and EU policy makers since the 1990s had tagged a democratising Mali as a \u201cbulwark against radical Islam\u201d in West Africa. However, a series of crises since 2012, impacted by the collapse of Gadhafi\u2019s regime in Libya, has seen Mali become one of the frontlines in the battle against violent Jihadism in the Sahelian region. In April 2012, a Tuareg secessionist campaign declared the independence of the state of Azawad in northern Mali. This precipitated political instability and a military coup in the capital Bamako. The resulting chaos was exploited by AQIM, who hijacked the Tuareg rebellion and threatened the forceful takeover of the country while also destroying a number of historically significant sites. A combined French and West African regional military intervention in early 2013 halted the advance and created space for peace negotiations with rebels and national elections. With the election of a new government, and the establishment and deployment of MINUSMA, AQIM fighters and their Tuareg hosts may be dispersed, but not halted. With militants believed to be hiding in hostile terrains in the Sahara, the north of Mali especially the area around Kidal, Gao and Timbuktu remains tense. The Islamist and separatist challenge is still real, with continuing suicide bombings and the presence of an illegal drug trade as signals. So far AQIM\u2019s affiliated Al-Mourabitoun operating in Mali have launched attacks in Burkina Faso and Ivory Coast. With the UN-brokered Algiers Accord failing to grant complete autonomy to Tuareg separatist in the North, a deadly conflation of separatism and Islamism remains an active challenge to the political order in Mali. Indeed, the peace deal, according one analysis, is \u201cone step forward, two steps back\u201d. However, Mali is to be commended for some success in reducing the Islamist threat, and the restoration of the government in the North. The appointment of Iyad Ag Ghaly leader of Ansar Dine as a diplomat to Saudi Arabia is to be welcomed. Such measures to strengthen the government is the surest way to halt any future political unrest. Yet, in a country whose standings in political participation and pluralism, functioning government, and rule of law sit at an abysmal 7 out of 16, 4 out of 12 and 6 out of 16 respectively, the world must watch out for what is next, primarily in the volatile North of the country, but also in central Mali where farmer-herder conflicts are a norm.\nNigeria, the \u201cGiant of Africa\u201d, is the continent\u2019s most populous state: it produces one of the largest economies and is a regional hegemon. Home to over 300 ethnic groups and 500 languages, Nigeria\u2019s 170 million people occupy an area of 923, 768 square km. Nigeria faces a number of substantial social, economic political and security challenges. These include ongoing violent rebellions against the state, both in the north and the south of the country. Militant religious movements are not new in Nigeria, but the rise in 2009 of the violent Islamist movement Boko Haram has since tested Nigeria\u2019s domestic, regional and global reputation. With the election of President Muhammadu Buhari in 2015, and the regional deployment of anti-Boko Haram forces, the Nigerian governments claims to have \u201ctechnically\u201d defeated the group by ousting them from their \u201clast\u201d remaining stronghold in Sambisa forest in the north-eastern state of Borno. This joint effort by Nigeria and its regional neighbours is a positive development. Some political stability in Nigeria with the election of Buhari is also a positive development. Still, the question \u201cwhere is Boko Haram now?\u201d should worry security watchers and government officials. Are the group\u2019s members dispersed in Niger or in Cameroon? Have they reached al Shabaab territory in the East or that of AQIM in the north? Also, in 2017 a rivalry between Abubakar Shekau, Boko Haram\u2019s most popular leader, and Abu Musab al-Barnawi who is claimed to have been appointed by ISIS to replace Shekau could complicate insecurity in the Lake Chad region. This should be closely monitored. Furthermore, should Boko Haram re-emerge elsewhere, what would be the costs? Will Boko Haram continue to use minors in suicide bombings as their new strategy? Answers to these questions should remain actively on the minds of security watchers and governments in West Africa and the Sahel in 2017.\nAdditionally, with the election of Muhammadu Buhari, a northerner and Muslim, there has been a resurgence of secessionist sentiments in the south which has been seen to partly represent southern discontent with the northern president. While militants in the Niger Delta area is an ongoing phenomenon, secessionist campaigns in the Niger Delta may increase and will likely take on a religious and ethnic binary in opposition to the north. Among other threats, Islamism in the north and Secessionism in the south are two issues to watch in Nigeria this year.\nSenegal, Africa\u2019s westernmost point, is considered one of the most stable democracies in Africa, with much of the country enjoying relative peace. But in the Casamance region, the Movement of Democratic Forces of Casamance (MFDC) has since the early 1980s remained involved in an armed confrontation with the Senegalese government in a campaign for the independence or autonomy of the region. The local conditions in Senegal may militate against the Casamance crisis evolving into a major national and human security threat, but local grievances in the region risks cross pollination with the broader negative security conditions across Senegal\u2019s Sahelian neighbours. This point is strengthened by the seizure of illegal weapons in Lagos meant for the MFDC in 2010. While Senegal\u2019s traditional Sufi Islamic orientation has been a shield against militant Islamist activism, Nigeria offers an example of how the presence of Sufi Islamic traditions is not a barrier to militant extremism. Senegal has also more recently been directly involved in the management of the political crisis in The Gambia, a state which is geographically surrounded by Senegal. After long-time President Yahya Jammeh lost the December 2016 presidential election and refused to cede power, Senegal led a West African regional effort in January 2017 to resolve the crisis by hosting the inauguration of elected president Adama Barrow, and threatening military intervention to install Barrow if Jammeh did not stand down. The threat was successful, resulting in the peaceful transition of power. Senegal gained credit for defending an emerging regional norm strengthening constitutionalism and peaceful elections. This is commendable. But the Casamance is still an issue to watch.\nNiger is a landlocked country of 1.27 million square km and approximately 20 million people. A key Uranium exporter, Niger is largely arid and comprised of desert. Political instability, chronic food insecurity, and natural crises, notably droughts, floods and locust infestations, have been Niger\u2019s principal challenges over recent decades. More recently, Niger has been drawn in to the Boko Haram insurgency that has emanated from the Lake Chad region and northern Nigeria to its southeast. Boko Haram attacks on Nigerien towns, including Magaria, Jajiri, Diffa and Bosso, has provoked the government in the capital Niamey into the regional anti-Boko Haram military offensive. Although boycotted by the opposition, the 2016 Nigerien elections were conducted in relative peace. The election of Muhamadou Issoufou promises some political stability as the country stays united in response to the threat of terrorism in its south. That said, Niger\u2019s expansive and arid North also remains a challenge due to the presence of AQIM. But Niger\u2019s biggest issues in 2017 may not be terrorism, but how to handle the recurrent issues of drought and famine.\nA country of around 12 million people covering 1.28 million square km, Chad is another landlocked country through which the Sahel region intersects. Like its neighbours, Chad has been caught up in the diffusion and contagion of Boko Haram in the region. The 2016 Global Terrorism Index (GTI) cited Boko Haram\u2019s regional expansion from Nigeria into Niger, Cameroon and Chad, with a 157% increase in deaths by Boko Haram in these countries. Chad has been a proactive regional leader in counter-Jihadist operations across Sahelian West Africa, including in Mali and the Lake Chad Basin. The Chadian Foreign Minister, Moussa Faki Mahamat, was recently elected as the African Union Commission\u2019s incoming Chairperson for the next four years, a development that may further promote Sahelian security concerns onto the continental organisation\u2019s agenda. But Chad\u2019s political terrain is not a smooth one. The recent conviction of Chad\u2019s former dictator Hissene Habre in Senegal is a victory for justice. The re-election of Idris Deby as President of Chad in 2016 maintains some stability. However, this is Deby\u2019s fourth consecutive term as president, amidst questionable constitutional changes. This is an issue to watch, considering how other leaders, such as Blaise Compaor\u00e9 of Burkina Faso and recently Jammeh of the Gambia, have attempted to massage the national constitution to extend their stay in power. Additionally, likely that the Boko Haram\u2019s remaining members are on the run, dispersed into the unknown territories of the Lake Chad Basin area. With the drying up of the Lake Chad and the resultant famine and drought, enormous socio-economic tension make the region quite susceptible to extremist anti-state rhetoric.\nClearly, while the political and security terrain in West Africa has not been all gloomy, the threat to lives, property and regional peace is imminent. To relevant governments, agencies and other institutions in the above countries and locations (and to all other actors), it is crucial to note that threats to the peace, threats to peaceful governance and threats to lives and property in Africa (and elsewhere) cannot and must not be understood in simplistic binary terms. Each of the above situations and cases point to the interplay of at least two or more factors including the historical, the geopolitical, the socio-economic and the ideological. There are also local as well as global factors. Thus, a variegated long-term plan\u2014involving both hard and soft utilisation of state authority, the empowerment of local peoples, institutions and resources, and taking account of the multiple variables and levels of political realities in these locations\u2014remains the surest way of keeping the peace in these regions and or preventing deteriorating security/political conditions.\n\u200bMuhammad Dan Suleiman is a security expert and political analyst based at the University of Western Australia, Perth.

The ADA, passed by Congress in 1990, prevents discrimination based on disability, requires that employers provide reasonable accommodations, and ensures that public accommodations meet certain accessibility requirements. The Commissioner of the Mayor\u2019s Office for People with Disabilities Victor Calise joined the Mayor in announcing a series of events and programming to commemorate the ADA and celebrate the work of disability rights advocates. Major events include the inaugural NYC Disability Pride Parade and the debut of the first ever museum exhibit on the city\u2019s Disability Rights Movement, which opened last night at the Brooklyn Historical Society to kick off this month\u2019s events.\n\u201cThe Americans with Disabilities Act is one of the most important civil rights laws in history,\u201d said Mayor de Blasio. \u201cBy designating July as Disability Pride Month, we are celebrating and commending the fierce advocacy of those who have fought for equal rights for decades and reaffirming our strong commitment to making New York City the most accessible city in the world.\u201d\n\u201cThis is the mission of New York City\u2019s Disability Rights Movement: to change the city\u2019s human environment so that everyone has access, and to open people\u2019s minds so that everyone has an opportunity to seek achievement, prosperity and fulfillment,\u201d said Victor Calise, Commissioner of the Mayor\u2019s Office for People with Disabilities. \u201cThis mission informed the national coalition that brought the Americans with Disabilities Act into being 25 years ago, and it will continue to inform our advocacy not just in July, but every month of the year. I am grateful to Mayor de Blasio for making New Yorkers with disabilities a priority, and taking unprecedented strides toward supporting and celebrating the community.\u201d\n\u201cWe are proud to support the rights of those with disabilities in our city,\u201d said Speaker Melissa Mark-Viverito. \u201cThroughout our history, New York City has been a leader on disability issues, and the designation of July as Disability Pride month on this anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act honors all those who have fought for equality. I thank the de Blasio administration for their commitment to fairness and equality for New Yorkers with disabilities.\u201d\nThe Disability Rights Movement has a long history in New York City, beginning in the late 19th Century when New York was home to the first organization focused on serving the needs of people with disabilities living in mainstream society. Though people with disabilities were making significant efforts toward self-advocacy as early as the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the modern Disability Rights Movement arose in the early 1960s through the work of a small cadre of determined, disabled New Yorkers. Their accomplishments included the first legal protections against discrimination and the creation of groups like the NYC Mayor\u2019s Office for People with Disabilities, the first permanent governmental body in the nation devoted to people living with disabilities. The tenacity of disability rights advocates ultimately led to the passage of the Americans with Disabilities Act in 1990, the nation\u2019s signature civil rights legislation for people living with disabilities.\nThroughout the inaugural Pride month, the City will host a series of events, including the first ever NYC Disability Pride Parade to be held on Sunday, July 12. The parade and rally, hosted by the Mayor\u2019s Office for People with Disabilities, will feature speakers, musicians and entertainers, and is designed to celebrate and honor the diverse disability community and the accomplishments of those within it. Senator Tom Harkin, the architect of the ADA, will be the Grand Marshall of the parade.\nKicking off the month-long celebration is the first ever museum exhibit on NYC\u2019s Disability Rights Movement titled, \u201cGaining Access: The New York City Disability Rights Movement,\u201d which opened last night at the Brooklyn Historical Society. \u201cGaining Access\u201d charts the history of the movement and its champions through original artifacts, footage and photographs. Curating the exhibit is historian Warren Shaw, who also serves as New York City Law Department Senior Counsel. Shaw\u2019s parents, Mollie and Julius Shaw, were well-known physically disabled political activists who pioneered the Disability Rights Movement and engineered the establishment of the Mayor\u2019s Office for People with Disabilities.\n\u201cOur goals for the exhibit are twofold \u2013 to illustrate the rise of disability as a demographic and social issue, and to document the emergence of the modern Disability Rights Movement,\u201d said Warren Shaw, curator, author, historian and Senior Counsel in the NYC Law Department. \u201cMy family\u2019s efforts to bring about important legal and cultural changes introduced me to the city as an evolving historical entity, in particular in the area of disabled rights. I am proud to work with the City on this important anniversary to celebrate the movement and clamor for greater accessibility and inclusion across the five boroughs.\u201d\nOther events throughout the month include:\nMonth-long CUNY Educational Lecture Series: The City University of New York will host a series of lectures, discussions and events focused on key issues related to disability \u2013 including employment, women\u2019s health, technology, dance, film, and community engagement \u2013 during which hosts and guests will discuss the issues, develop resolutions and plan for future improvement. CUNY will collaborate with other local institutions on the events, which will run throughout the month of July at various locations around the city.\nMonth-long Adaptive Sports and Recreation Activities: In collaboration with the Parks Department, the City will host adaptive activities throughout the month at City Parks in all five boroughs.\nThe ADA Legacy Tour: On July 13 and 14, the ADA Legacy Tour \u2013 which has been making stops across the country since it kicked off its national, year-long tour to raise awareness and celebrate the 25th anniversary \u2013 will be visiting Borough Halls in the Bronx, Brooklyn, Queens and Staten Island. The Tour features a rolling piece of history \u2013 the \u201cRoad to Freedom\u201d ADA Bus, which traveled to 48 states in 2007 to raise support for the ADA Amendments Act. The bus is driven by veteran disability rights photographer Tom Olin and brings with it displays on the preservation of disability history, celebrations of disability history milestones, and efforts to educate future generations of disability advocates.\nThe ADA Sapolin Awards: Mayor de Blasio and Commissioner Calise will host the Annual ADA Sapolin Awards, a yearly celebration of the ADA during with the Mayor gives awards honoring individuals and organizations that have made extraordinary contributions to the advancement of accessibility and inclusion.\n\u201cIt is our mission to ensure that all New Yorkers can enjoy our city\u2019s 29,000 acres of parkland, regardless of their income or abilities,\u201d said Mitchell J. Silver, FAICP, Commissioner of the Parks Department. \u201cThis summer, NYC Parks will host accessible sports, fitness, arts, and education events throughout the five boroughs so that all New Yorkers can get the most out of the great outdoors.\u201d\n\u201cAs we mark the 25th anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act, we should celebrate the legacy of the New Yorkers who founded the modern disability rights movement and continue to pursue their goal of accessibility for all,\u201d said Manhattan Borough President Gale A. Brewer. \u201cTwenty-five years later, we are still finding new ways to make our city accessible \u2013 from requiring more ADA-compliant cars in our taxi fleet, to increasing the number of accessible pedestrian signals on our streets.\u201d\n\u201cI\u2019m thrilled to be celebrating our first ever Disability Pride Month, and our 25th year of the Americans with Disabilities Act,\u201d said Council Member Brad Lander. \u201cIt gives me great pride to be part of a city that recognizes the importance of accessibility and the need to create an environment that works for all New Yorkers. Thanks to Mayor de Blasio and Commissioner Calise for recognizing the proud history of the Disabled Rights Movement today, and the tireless advocacy and efforts of all those who fought for accessibility and equality.\u201d\n\u201cFor 25 years, the Americans with Disabilities Act has made a tremendous difference in the lives of untold numbers New Yorkers,\u201d said Council Member Corey Johnson. \u201cDesignating July as Disability Pride Month is an excellent way to show our commitment New Yorkers with disabilities and thank them for their contributions to our city. The Americans with Disabilities Act is a profound piece of legislation that we must uphold and even exceed when possible. I thank the Mayor and his administration for designating the month of July as Disability Pride Month.\u201d\n\u201cEqual access is a civil right, and 25 years after the passage of the Americans with Disabilities Act, we continue to strive for more equal access for people with disabilities in our schools, on playgrounds, on public transportation, and in public and government spaces. I was proud to introduce the resolutions calling on the State to expand the yearly income threshold for DRIE to $50,000 and to remove the sunset provision from the SCRIE and DRIE expansions, and I am working on legislation to broaden access to people with hearing disabilities. I thank Mayor Bill de Blasio for being a strong advocate for people with disabilities and for naming July \u2018Disability Pride Month,\u2019\u201d said Council Member Helen Rosenthal.\n\u201cOur goal in establishing an annual Disability Pride Parade in New York City is to promote inclusion, awareness, and visibility of people with disabilities, and redefine public perception of disability. Disability Pride NYC seeks to support people with disabilities in whatever way we can,\u201d said Mike LeDonne, Founder, President and CEO of Disability Pride NYC.\n\u201cNew Yorkers with Disabilities have been fighting for equality much longer than 25 years. The struggle hasn\u2019t been easy but recently we\u2019ve had a number of decisions and settlements in the courts that have advanced our cause and raised awareness about the issues of Disability Rights,\u201d said Edith M Prentiss, Vice President of Legislative Affairs at Disabled In Action of Metropolitan NY.\n\u201cNo law other than the ADA has ever promised people with disabilities the right to live as equals in America. No law other than the ADA has given people with disabilities the potential to pull ourselves out of poverty and to reach our full potential and greatness,\u201d said John D. Kemp, President and CEO of The Viscardi Center. \u201cThank you, Mayor de Blasio and the City of New York for designating July as Disability Pride Month and encouraging us to embrace our disability identity, as people who are LGBTQ have done so well and rightly.\u201d\n\u201cPeople with disabilities still face discrimination and lack of access every day,\u201d said Joan Peters, Executive Director of the Brooklyn Center for Independence of the Disabled. \u201cBCID views the Mayor\u2019s designation of July as Disability Pride Month as an important step in raising awareness of the rights of people with disabilities, and for celebrating the accomplishments of disability rights advocates past and present. We look forward to continuing to work with the City to realize the full inclusion of people with all types of disabilities.\u201d\n\u201cWe are proud and honored to celebrate the 25th Anniversary of the ADA with fellow New Yorkers. Since the end of World War II United Spinal Association has advocated for access, inclusion and community living. Much is left to be done but the world is definitely a better place because of the ADA and the work of advocates with disabilities. Thanks to all who acknowledge the needs and support the rights of the disability community,\u201d said James Weisman, Senior Vice President and General Counsel at the United Spinal Association.\n\u201cIndependence Care System is a proud sponsor of ADA25NYC,\u201d said ICS President Rick Surpin. \u201cAs a managed long term care plan dedicated to helping people with disabilities lives active, independent lives in their communities, we celebrate the advocacy and hard work that led to the passage of the ADA. We also recognize the importance of continuing to honor and expand the ADA\u2019s legacy by enforcing the law so that all New Yorkers with disabilities, including our members, are fully able to lead the life they choose.\u201d\n\u201cFor 25 years the Americans with Disabilities Act has expanded access and improved the lives of people who are blind or visually impaired, and those with other disabilities. Lighthouse Guild is proud to join the City of New York in celebrating the progress made so far as a result of the ADA while recognizing that there is yet more that can be done to make New York accessible to the people we serve,\u201d said Alan R. Morse, PhD, JD, President and CEO of Lighthouse Guild.\n\u201cCUNY is very proud of the historic role it has played in creating access and opportunity for New Yorkers with disabilities in higher education. CUNY\u2019s 9,000 students with disabilities represent 20 percent of all college students with disabilities in New York State degree programs and are among the University\u2019s most outstanding scholars and leaders\u201d said Frank D. Sanchez, Ph.D., Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs at the City University of New York. \u201cAt CUNY, we\u2019re particular proud that the experiences of people with disabilities are reflected richly in our academic programs and co-curricular life.\u201d\n\u201cCongratulations to Mayor de Blasio, Commissioner Calise, and MOPD for being at the forefront celebrating the 25th Anniversary of the ADA,\u201d said Christina Curry, Executive Director of the Harlem Independent Living Center.\n\u201cThe ADA provided the legal basis to ensure that people who are deaf or hard of hearing have access to communication in all venues. There is still progress needed to be made to individualize the type of accessibility a given individual with hearing loss requires, but in NYC we are well on the way,\u201d said Laurie Hanin, Ph.D., CCC-A, Executive Director of the Center for Hearing and Communication.\nFor more information and to see other events hosted in honor of the ADA and People with Disabilities Month \u2013 including an open-source calendar of community events and accessible programming \u2013 visit the Mayor\u2019s Office for People with Disability\u2019s ADA25NYC website here.",

        "raw_content": "In this edition of Performance Magazine, we reflect the global nature of the investment industry. Irrespective of which part of the investment value chain is the primary focus of executives operating in this industry, they have to stay abreast of global developments. Therefore, in this issue we look across the global investment industry, at the diverse issues that we face today.\nFrom the Executive suite, we have a discussion with Euan Munro, the Chief Executive of Aviva Investors, who shares his perspective on key industry issues, and also outlines the philosophy underpinning Aviva Investors successful Outcome focused AIMS Multi-Strategy fund range. From the front office, we hear from Valentijn van Nieuwenhuijzen, Head of Multi Asset at NN Investment Partners, as he describes how his investment process is informed by behavioural finance and harnesses big data.\nEMEA is an important investment management market facing much change. To address that, firstly, Julie Becker, a Member of the Executive Committee of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange describes the newly formed European Commission\u2019s High-Level Expert Group on sustainable finance, which presents recommendations for a comprehensive EUstrategy on sustainable finance as part of the Capital Markets Union.\nSecondly, Brexit is a key European issue for the industry, and Deloitte Partner Gavin Bullock examines the consequences for investment managers in terms of their corporate structures and taxation arrangements.\nTurning to South East Asia, the investment industry is becoming increasingly sophisticated and managing financial crime compliance is becoming critical for firms operating in the region.\nOn the other side of the globe in the US, Deloitte Partner Karl Ehrsam and his colleagues provide a briefing on the Investment company reporting modernization rule, introduced by the Securities and Exchange Commission on 13 October 2016.\nTechnology is playing a key role across the investment industry and the final two articles examine the intersection of technology innovation, regulation and distribution. Deloitte, in collaboration with Irish Funds, assesses how blockchain technology could be applied to regulatory reporting requirements.\nThe final article assesses the potential of robo-advice as we hear from Rahul Sharma on The Future of Automated Financial Advice. Based upon a recent indepth research report, Sharma shares the attractiveness for customers, describes the advantages, addresses challenges that it raises, and outlines the importance of establishing an appropriate governance regime.\nIn summary, in this edition of Performance Magazine, we address a wide range of issues that industry executives have to grapple with, ranging from the development of investment capability, managing a changing regulatory landscape, innovation in technology, through to the growing sophistication of the South East Asian industry.\nThis is a broad ranging edition, befitting a global industry. We hope you find this interesting.\nPerformance Magazine Issue #23\nInterview: The quiet revolutionary\nThe future of automated financial advice\nGreen finance keeps the sky blue\nRegChain Reaction\nRevolutionary reg. reporting in the funds world\nSmarter investing by trying to understand the mood of Mr. Market\nGetting a handle on financial crime compliance in Southeast Asia\nModernizing mutual fund reporting for today\u2019s environment",

And when I'm talking\nabout this I'm talking about, you know, your personal overall appearances.\nObviously you're going to want to have an appropriate suit or\nclothing to wear to your job, depending on your profession.\nBasically you're going to want to dress the part.\nThe old adage applies here, \"dressing for success\" so\nAnd then we're going to talk a little bit about general behavior guidelines.\nTimeliness is going to be important.\nObviously I think that goes without saying.\nBut I do have to mention it.\nIf you're not on time people are going to notice and\nyou don't want to be noticed for not being on time.\nAlong with that for a salaried position, or even an hourly position\nclock watching isn't going to be something that's looked on kindly\nin the professional part of the United States.\nDon't jump out the door right at five o'clock when you're job ends.\nYou know, there are times when you can leave directly at five,\nthere are times that you'll probably be able to leave a little bit before that.\nBut overall, you're going to want to commit to your career.\nThis is your job, this is going to be your livelihood.\nAnd you want to represent that you you understand that.\nAnd you're committed to the company that you're working for.\nIt's going to be noticed by,\nnot only your superiors, but it's going to be noticed by your coworkers.\nThe amount of time that you're putting in\nand how dedicated you are to your position.\nIn addition to that, there's another piece that's important, and that's\nsharing your downtime with coworkers.\nAnd I'm not talking about you know,\nspending every, every second of every day with your coworkers.\nI'm talking about water cooler time and what that refers to is basically\nthe downtime, lunches, breaks, the beginning and\nending of meetings. Where people are waiting around for things to happen.\nThere is more of that than you would necessarily think that goes on\nin an office in a daily basis. And sharing your,\nsharing yourself with your co-workers is going to be very important.\nIt's going to be important for you to understand American culture in that\ncontext in the sense that you're going to need to be able to\nhave a conversation about you know, sports or entertainment.\nEven what's going on in the news locally.\nYou know, for instance, right now, weather would be a big subject,\nespecially in the Northeast of the United States.\nIf you're dealing with people in the Boston area,\nthat subject's going to come up.\nSo it's important that you familiarize yourself with the culture and\nare able to have a discussion about that.\nit's going to help you interface with professionals in the United States no\nmatter where you're at is if you can keep up with the with the culture, with what's\nbeing talked about in popular entertainiment, sporting, and the news.\nAnother thing associated with your behavior, and this particularly\napplies to meetings, and you'll be part of quite a few meetings in the United States.\nI used to really enjoy, in my experience, people that did a lot of listening.\nAnd when they did have something to say\nthat they brought a lot of what I used to refer to as pop.\nAnd what that was, essentially to me, was someone that had a strong impact on\na meeting after listening to a variety of the aspects associated with what\nwas being discussed, and brought up a, an element, or a solution, or a topic\nthat was, applicable to the meeting. And that really made the entire group have to\nthink or assess a new direction, depending on what was being discussed.\nSo, it's important to develop your listening skills and to understand\nand get a better feel as to when to speak in a meeting.\nYou'll be requested to speak during certain sessions, and\nI'm sure you'll be fine with that.\nYou've shown initiative to being a student in the United States, so\nI think you're not going to have any problems\ndemonstrating that within the context of a work environment.\nBut listening is going to be a big deal.\nThe last piece using your experience.\nAgain, you have an advantage in this situation.\nUtilize your inherent diversity and you know, not only as\nan individual yourself and the diversity you bring as an individual,\nbut think about your background, where you've come from and\nthings that might go on in your native land.\nThat would have a positive impact or you know,\njust a change of course or, or subject for a meeting or a,\na topic at work that would shed different type of light on any given subject.\nThat's valuable, valuable stuff.\nWhether you think it is or not.\nAnd it will be interesting for for you as well as the others in your\nwork group to understand your perspective and pay good,\ngood mind to some of the things that you may bring up in that case.\nLastly I guess what I would say to make the transition easier,\ntreat others as you'd like to be treated yourself.\nThat's going to be a notion that's going to get you through a variety of different\ncircumstances and allow you to be successful.\nOn a personal level, and a professional level, as well.\nSo I hope that helps, and best of luck to you.",

        "raw_content": "Malaria is a serious disease spread through mosquito bites, and is a leading cause of death, illness, and poor growth and development among young children.\nMalaria is particularly dangerous for pregnant women. Millions of pregnant women are exposed to malaria each year. Malaria during pregnancy contributes to low-birthweight babies in endemic areas, plus anaemia, stillbirth and even maternal deaths.\nMalaria is spread by the bite of an Anopheles mosquito. The mosquito transfers the malaria parasite, Plasmodium, from person to person. People get very sick with high fevers, diarrhoea, vomiting, headache, chills and flu-like illness. Especially in children, the disease can worsen rapidly. Children under 5 years old are most susceptible to malaria because they have very little acquired immunity to resist it.\nMany lives can be saved by preventing malaria and treating it early. Children and their family members have the right to quality health care for prompt and effective treatment and malaria prevention.\nFacts to know about malaria:\nMalaria is transmitted through the bites of some mosquitoes. Sleeping under an insecticide-treated mosquito net is the best way to prevent mosquito bites.\nIf malaria is present, children are in danger. A child with a fever should be examined immediately by a trained health worker and receive an appropriate treatment as soon as possible if diagnosed with malaria. Artemisinin-based combination therapies (ACTs) are recommended by WHO for treatment of malaria.\nMalaria is very dangerous for pregnant women. Wherever malaria is common, they should prevent malaria by taking antimalarial tablets recommended by a trained health worker and by sleeping under an insecticide-treated mosquito net.\nA child suffering or recovering from malaria needs plenty of liquids and foods.",

        "title": "100 Years in America: Reflections from underneath the Christmas tree (Advent Calendar: Ornaments)",
        "raw_content": "Reflections from underneath the Christmas tree (Advent Calendar: Ornaments)\nOne of my earliest memories is the view of the beautiful lights on the Christmas tree overhead as I rested on the floor near the manger scene. I loved to watch all the ornaments go by on our spinning Christmas tree (thanks to a revolving tree stand that our family has had ever since I can remember).\nOur tree always had such a nice menagerie of ornaments - angels, bells, little elves, balls, silver tinsel (I fondly remember the messy kind, although I've never introduced my own children to it).\nThere are so many types of beautiful Christmas trees, but my favorites are always the ones that have a truly unique character. I love to visit Christmas stores on my vacations, no matter the month. This year I had a festive time picking out nativity ornaments in the Christmas shop in Santa Fe, New Mexico in mid-summer. Several years ago in early fall I wandered through the Christmas store in Rockefeller Center to find a special ornament memento of our visit there. Ornaments from Basel, London, New Delhi and other places family members have visited grace the branches of our tree. Thanks to their presence, Christmas is filled with memories of places we've been and also places we would like to visit someday.\nI have always admired the beautiful felt embroidered ornaments from Hungary on my grandmother's Christmas tree. These colorful ornaments, called Maty\u00f3s after the Hungarian people of Slovak origin who began using this style of embroidery on folk costumes, are now well-known throughout Hungary and around the world. Even though these styles of embroidery only became popular during the late 19th century, they have come to represent Hungary today and make their home on many a Christmas tree in the old world and the new. For more on Maty\u00f3 rose embroidery (including some interesting books for the serious Maty\u00f3 collector) see this Kisjank\u00f3 Bori Memorial House webpage.\nI understand that in Hungary it would not be right for a Hungarian Christmas tree to be decorated without including szaloncukor - traditional candies wrapped in tissue paper with fringed ends (although foil is now often used). The name, according to Anik\u00f3 Gergely's Culinaria Hungary, means \"drawing-room sugar\". Supposedly it is permissible to eat the candy as long as the wrapper is left to beautify the tree. Gergely writes that \"the ability to remove the tempting confectionary from its wrapper without leaving any sign of tampering or damaging the aluminum foil is a skill acquired at an early age by this nation of candy-lovers and perfected until late on in life\".\nLicitar hearts (Licitarska Srca) and other Licitar shapes are now the most traditionally Croatian ornaments, although they may also be given throughout the year to loved ones. The hearts, edible although usually not eaten, are honey cakes decorated with icing. The mirror in the center of the heart represents the loved one who received the little gift of love. The origin of Licitar dates back to the 16th century in the Pannonian region of Croatia. The area around Zagreb in northwestern Croatia is most well-known for these decorative confections, although the tradition has spread all throughout Croatia. A beautiful description of the history and tradition behind the Licitar hearts of Croatia can be found in this Croatia Airlines article online.\nThe Christmas tree has truly become an international phenomenon. What a wonderful way to get a taste of our heritage: by decorating a tree with some beautiful ornaments from the countries in which our ancestors spent so many Christmases.\nThink I'll go take a rest under my tree now...\nThis article is part of a series written in celebration of the Advent and Christmas seasons. It will be included as part of the GeneaBloggers Advent Calendar of Christmas Memories 2009 Day 3: Christmas Tree Ornaments. Make a visit to Thomas MacEntee's GeneaBloggers website for some additional inspiration to get yourself in the holiday spirit!\nLabels: Advent Calendar of Christmas Memories, Croatia, Holidays, Hungary, Traditions\nHi, Lisa! Thought you might be interested in this news story from Hungary about two brothers who were homeless and now stand to inherit billions from their deceased grandmother. Genealogy research found the heirs.\nThanks for sharing this story, Jennifer. What an amazing reversal of fortune for these two men.",

The Scorpion rapper's appearances at the nightclubs E11even and LIV have been canceled as well, but the concerts will be made up on Nov. 13 and Nov. 14.\nThe latest postponement of the Miami shows is not the first time dates on the trek had to be rescheduled. In August, a show in Toronto was postponed and the tour originally got off to a late start after its early dates were rescheduled.\nIn related news, Drake recently linked up with French Montana again for the New York rapper's latest banger, \"No Stylist.\" Over a London on da Track beat, Drizzy appears takes a shot at Kanye West, rapping, \"I got the game in a squeeze/Who disagree? I wanna see one of y'all run up a B/Yeah, two open seats, we flyin' at 7 and packed for the beach/Yeah, keepin' it G, I told her don't wear no 350s 'round me.\"\nThe song arrived shortly before Yeezy hopped on Instagram and called out Drake for failing to shut down rumors that he slept with Kim Kardashian. The Chicago rapper also doubled down on his claim that he didn't provide Pusha-T with any details about Drake's personal life.\nThe Aubrey and the Three Migos tour will pick up again on Sept. 24 in New Orleans and continue through Nov. 17 in Atlanta.\nSource: Drake and Migos Postpone Miami Tour Stops",

This ceremony is mainly done to provide closure to the friends and family of the deceased. It is also a dignified way of saying farewell to the deceased.\nChoose a venue where the ceremony will be held. This can either be in a church, crematorium, private residence, or anywhere else that is convenient. You will also need to find a Pastor to officiate the ceremony. If the deceased was affiliated to any particular church, approach his Pastor first. If the deceased did not attend any particular church, ask for referrals from close friends about which church to use.\nThe ceremony usually begins by the minister welcoming attendees and giving a sermon. Scripture readings can be done by a close friend or family of the deceased. The main aim of the sermon is to celebrate the life of the deceased and to encourage the bereaved.\nGive people an opportunity to present any personal poems or music. You can ask if there are any personal speakers who would like to say something special about the deceased person. Ensure that there is a photo or photos of the deceased present during the event.\nThe pastor will then proceed to close the ceremony by praying for the bereaved and to give thanks for the life of the deceased. The congregation can then proceed to sing a hymn or hymns as the coffin is carried out. The attendees can be given a few moments to think about the life of the individual at the end of the ceremony.\nBefore the conclusion of the Christian funeral service, inform attendees of what is expected of them. Provide important details such as the events that are to take place next. Let them know the venue and date of the burial.",

        "raw_content": "Having a career with a company that invests heavily in leadership development and strives to be a responsible corporate citizen, I went into the GGCLC with an open mind but a tinge of skepticism about what I would learn in two weeks with a group of strangers. I come out of the GGCLC with wonderful new friends, deeper insight into what makes our country great, a wider lens through which to look at the world and a broader perspective with which to make personal and professional decisions. Where once was a single bottom-line, now there are three: financial, environmental and social. A prosperous Canada requires that they be balanced\u2026I get that now, and I have a role to play in ensuring that balance. I\u2019ve attending a lot of training and personal development sessions over my career, but nothing compares to the GGCLC experience.\nNational Retail Fuels Manager, Imperial Oil\nIt is extremely difficult to put into words what this conference has done for me not only as a leader, but as a Canadian and a human being. This conference takes a group of extremely successful, talented leaders and challenges their way of thinking and looking at different issues in Canada. This conference is designed to have each participant examine their own perspective and at the same time learn from and understand the perspective of other leaders from various sectors. It forces you out of your comfort zone, but by doing so, your growth and self-reflection is at a completely different level. The impact of this conference goes far beyond the last day of your tour, if you open yourself up to this amazing, wonderful, once in a lifetime experience, you will have no choice but to become a more successful leader, a stronger Canadian and a kinder, more compassionate human being.\nExecutive Assistant to the President and Union Negotiator, UFCW Local 832\nThis experience truly changed the way I approach people, challenges and life in general. It had a tangible impact on both my personal and professional life. It has been a once in a lifetime opportunity to take a step back and reflect on my life as a Canadian, a leader in my environment and in most aspects of life in general. I have been exposed to a reality that gets you to re-evaluate the way things should be for all Canadians in terms of equal opportunities, business practices and government actions. The Conference gave me the opportunity to interact with leaders coming from all walks of life and currently making an impact in their own sector and province of residence. The quality of the insights and all those in depth-discussions that I have been fortunate to have with them made this whole experience a success for me. I see this experience as a catalyst for making better decisions in all aspects of my life moving forward, as the challenge and the responsibility as an alumnus is to contribute better to society while making an impact as leader for the greater good.\nSebastien Beauchamp (2015)\nExecutive Director, Market Access & Government Affairs, Valeant Canada\nHaving worked in the public, not-for-profit, academic and private sectors across verticals from law to technology and healthcare to education, I have attended a few conferences but the GGCLC was the single most rewarding I have ever attended. I learned more about, and saw more of our country than I imagined I could in 2 weeks. I met amazing people from walks of life I would never have encountered otherwise. The GGCLC was intense with hard travel and many long and thought-provoking conversations. Combined with some of the best networking I\u2019ve ever experienced, this made for a conference I would highly recommend.\nEnterprise Relationship Manager, LinkedIn\nI cannot say enough about what a profound effect the Conference had on me. There is no other opportunity in Canada where emerging leaders get to test their skills, build their awareness, broaden their perspectives and meet other engaged individuals from across the country. Although the Conference itself is short in the grand scheme of a career, I know I will continue to reference it as a pivotal time for me. The network of extraordinary individuals that I now know, I could not have assembled myself if I spent the next 50 years trying! The Conference taught me I will need these perspectives, both mine and others, as I continue on my own leadership journey. Regardless of how full your life is\u2014take the time to apply\u2014it is absolutely worth it. Alissa Barton (2015)\nDirector, Employee Programs\nAs leaders in our home communities we make decisions regularly that impact the lives and futures of people, our organizations and our country. Frankly, I learned through the conference that most of us lead with blinders on, without a big picture view and without really knowing what is going on around us. After the conference ended, I could tell that I was changed as were the people who I spent 15 days with. Every interaction, discussion, debate and exchange built more curiosity, scrutiny of the situation and understanding. During the conference you learn what tired is, question what you are meant to be doing with your life and you learn what else is happening in our country. If you pass up applying to the conference and the chance to become an alumni, you will pass up the opportunity of a lifetime.\u201d\nVice-President, Canadore College of Applied Arts and Technology\nThe Governor General\u2019s Canadian Leadership Conference was an amazing experience! I loved the format of opening up with thought-provoking speakers which provided me with a lens to look at the organizations that we visited during the tour. Learning theory and then going out and seeing it in practice really hammered home the points. Now that I\u2019m home, I\u2019m working hard to put the theories into practice because I saw how successful organizations were when they were applied. And of course, it was absolutely incredible to tour around Newfoundland and Labrador for two weeks \u2013 we saw beautiful scenery (can you see too many icebergs?), met outstanding people, ate delicious food (I miss cod!), and I truly had the best bunch of people to travel with! Thank you!\nCity Councillor, Yellowknife, and\nDirector of Communications and Community Development\nAVENS \u2013 A Community for Seniors\nThe Governor General\u2019s Canadian Leadership Conference gave me a unique opportunity to become more fully aware of social, economic, political and environmental issues in another part of the country, an opportunity that is rarely available. The two weeks I invested in this program turned me into a better-informed and more relevant leader. Above all, the people we met formally, as well as those with whom I had the pleasure of sharing this experience on a day-to-day basis, brought me something special as an individual and as a citizen. There can be little doubt that this was the greatest personal and professional development experience in my career.\nThe YMCAs of Quebec\nThe 2012 Governor General\u2019s Canadian Leadership Conference marked a turning point in my personal and professional life. I had the privilege of co-chairing the Nunavut Study Group with the most dynamic and engaged leaders from across Canada. We all came from different backgrounds, but whether we represented the labour, business, Government, or the non-profit sector, we all shared a common thirst for knowledge, and a firm desire to make a positive difference. The Conference exceeded all of my expectations, and it offered me one of the most unique experiences of my life. I returned from the Conference with a much greater appreciation for the richness, diversity, and complexity of our country. The Conference is visionary, innovative, and it challenges its delegates to think outside of the box and push their leadership skills to the limit. It\u2019s not a conference you attend; it\u2019s a conference you experience!\nParticipating in the 2012 GGCLC was one of the most impactful leadership experiences of my career. Spending close to two weeks in Nunavut, in some of the most remote communities we have in Canada, with an incredibly diverse group of people rich in intellect and experiences, was a once in a lifetime opportunity. My participation in the GGCLC has permanently changed not only how I see Canada but how I see my own role, both in business and society in general. I was proud to be a Canadian before this experience and that pride in my country and faith in its citizens and future leaders is orders of magnitude higher now.\nGeneral Manager, Sarnia Manufacturing Centre\nI can\u2019t imagine any other course or experience will challenge your perspective, elevate your game or inspire you more than the Governor General\u2019s Canadian Leadership Conference. Believe that you will be chosen, apply, celebrate your acceptance and embrace every moment of this unique experience. I am so grateful to the GGCLC for the friends, knowledge, inspiration, network of amazing and generous alumni and for being able to deepen my ties with this truly amazing country. I find it hard to articulate how much the Conference has meant to me and to my development as a leader, but believe me, you will be changed for the better for having participated.\nAttending the Conference offered me the rare chance to examine, learn from and understand the decision-making processes\u2019 of leaders from across the country. Being part of the conference has given me a better understanding of how everyone looks at a problem or opportunity with their own perspective, and that in order to make progress we need to respect and embrace this diversity. Aboriginal people have very important perspectives and experiences to share and the opportunity to listen, learn, contribute and grow is essential in doing our part to create positive change in our communities across the country. I believe conferences of this calibre are the gateway to profound awareness and growth on both a personal and professional level.\nThe Governor General Canadian Leadership Conference was an opportunity to experience and develop compassion and a deeper understanding for study group colleagues and conference participants from various sectors and industries, and for other Canadians as they struggle to better their lives and their communities. It would be virtually impossible to walk away from such an exhilarating experience untouched, and without having opened the door to personal growth. The Labour Movement prides itself in it\u2019s conviction that \u201can injury to one, is an injury to all.\u201d I am proud to say that after attending the GGCLC I believe that Canadians feel that way about their country and their fellow Canadians.\nThe GGCLC conference experience was the single most transformative event in my life to date. It did two things for me that have changed my perspective permanently. First it offered me a chance to explore other parts of Canada and meet the people who have shaped their pocket of our country, and my respect for our nation\u2019s people grew. The second was the chance it gave me to be challenged in extreme environments with leaders who have very diverse opinions. A mind expanding effort that I am happy to have faced. Having had the opportunity to compete and manage at one of the greatest experiences in the world \u2013 the Olympic Games \u2013 might have set a bar that was too high to surpass. The Governor Generals Canadian Leadership Conference set a new bar.\nWow. What an amazing experience and privilege to be part of the Governor General\u2019s Canadian Leadership Conference. I learned so much about leadership and sustainable communities exploring British Columbia by plane, boat, bus and train with such a talented and diverse group of Canadians. The commitment of the people we met with to make their communities stronger was awe inspiring. One year on, my British Columbia study group has already had a reunion and we\u2019re planning more. If you\u2019re up for the opportunity, apply \u2013 it will change your life.\nSenior Economist, Financial Markets Division, Financial Sector Policy Branch\nDepartment of Finance, Canada\nThe 2012 GGCLC was an experience that I am still learning from. I find myself remembering something that was said, done or observed on our study tour\u2026and I smile at the memory, while I adapt it within my work. The Conference will show you how much you don\u2019t know and how much you have to share. This is a rare gem that simultaneously teaches you about your country, yourself and about a group of people that bring a new value to your life. It\u2019s not about meetings, agendas, deadlines \u2013 it\u2019s about listening, learning, disagreeing, understanding. You don\u2019t need to be reminded to \u2018be in the moment\u2019 because the moment overtakes you. Thank you for the opportunity and for seeing the leader in me that I didn\u2019t even know was there \u2013 but I am that leader and I will continue to evolve.\nService Employees International Union \u2013 West\nAttending the GGCLC was the best thing I could do as a potential leader. It focused my resolve and allowed me to see myself from a different perspective. It was an eye-opening experience that connected me with my own potential. Most positive professional experience I have had the opportunity and pleasure to be involved in bar none.\nMayor Town of Fort Smith, NT\nThe Conference is a valued experience for emerging leaders from the labour movement. The networking opportunity is exceptional. The Conference broadens each member\u2019s horizon and creates unique situations where people from totally different backgrounds can put their preconceptions away and exchange ideas in an atmosphere of open debate and discovery.\nIf you are lucky enough to be selected, the GGCLC is a not-to-be-missed, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to learn and discover a lot about yourself, about leadership and about Canada. Despite my own very busy schedule, I am very glad that I took out the two weeks to attend this conference. I learned so much about the world that exists outside my own narrow, daily domain. I learned so much about this great country of ours, which, as an immigrant, I appreciate even more now than I did before. I learned that there is no one \u2018best way to lead\u2019. I learned that every day, there are dedicated, hardworking and intelligent men and women in all walks of life that are striving to make Canada a better place, one small bit at a time. Most importantly, I learned that as Canadians, there is far more that unites us than that which divides us.\nManaging Director and Head, Global Equity-Linked Products\nI had the once in a life time opportunity to tour the Northwest Territories for eight days with fourteen incredible leaders, and I quickly learned that the journey was the outcome. The one on one and group conversations as we sat in buses, boats, planes (many planes), living rooms and boardrooms were fantastic; I was able to learn a great deal about nation-building and what it truly takes. The GGCLC solidified my understanding of collective action and the process we should take in building our country. It was an experience that has fundamentally changed the way I look and engage with Canada.\nExecutive Director at For Youth Initiative (FYI) and Chair, Premier\u2019s Council on Youth Opportunities\nWhat an extraordinary way to get to know Canada though its diverse physical geography and through the eyes of our fellow citizens. The experience provides a glimpse into the hearts and minds of Canadians. It reaffirms Canadian values and introduces and explains perspectives and opinions that were previously unknown or discounted. Sleep deprivation meets sensory overload is a good summary of the magnificence of the program. I feel \u2018more Canadian\u2019 for having participated.\nPartner, Cassels Brock & Blackwell LLP\nAs high as my expectations were entering the Conference, they were completely blown away before the opening plenary was even over. To explore the underbelly of Canada\u2019s wealthiest province for 10 days with a collection of new acquaintances and come away with a completely different view of life in Alberta was absolutely unforgettable. Things that we thought we knew about how our tour would unfold turned out completely the opposite, and that was perfect. And to be part of a group of 17 strangers from coast to coast (to coast!) with expertise in everything from maple syrup to law that morphed into one unit that will have an unbreakable lifelong bond is simply an experience you cannot get anywhere else. To say that this Conference is second to none is an understatement like no other.\nSector Lead, ICT\nACOA PEI\nI always thought I viewed the world with an open mind but my experience participating in the GGCLC widened that view even further\u2026. The GGCLC experience challenged us to think and act beyond our comfort levels \u2013 to take the best of each of us and let one another walk in those shoes or mindset for two weeks. The people we met in the communities we visited provided a slice of life that was real, energizing and at times, heartbreaking. This level of learning and exposure to Canada cannot be obtained through a work site or classroom. We grew by connecting with fellow Canadians \u2013 in penitentiaries, corporate boardrooms, community dinner tables, youth group homes and underground mines. I now feel an even greater need to create positive change for Canadians \u2013 and as an Alumni of the GGCLC it\u2019s quite simply, my responsibility.\nManager, Change Management and Organizational Impacts\nParticipating in the 2012 GGCLC had to be the most unique learning experience that I have ever undertaken. Meeting, working, debating, and bonding with my study team over the course of 2 weeks, all of whom were from vastly different backgrounds, made this a very rich and impactful learning experience \u2013 not to mention the fun we had together! We had the opportunity to meet with leaders of very large companies, with leaders of NGOs, with leaders of non-profit, charitable organizations; with leaders of First Nations Communities, with leaders of government; all of whom were very innovative and collaborative in their approach to leadership and enhancing sustainability of the communities within which they operated. While it took us some time to understand just how our conversations with this diverse group of people from all parts and sectors of Saskatchewan fit together in terms of the lens of the conference theme, it all came together for a new and deeper understanding of what makes communities thrive, what holds them back, what makes them sustainable, and how each sector of our society impacts an other \u2013 how it all fits into the fabric of Canada.\nManaging Director, Corporate Finance\nPrairies Division\nTooling around New Brunswick in a disco-era bus with civil servants and union guys and corporate leaders and even a Parti Quebecois politician may not have been exactly how I thought I would spend my summer, but am I ever glad I did! I learned so much about a region I didn\u2019t know very well, about community action and engagement, and about what binds us together as a nation. I learned so much from my fellow travelers, as well as all the wonderful community people we met. I can\u2019t recommend the experience highly enough.\nParticipating in the 2008 GGCLC has to have been one of the most outstanding opportunities for personal growth that I\u2019ve experienced. It was an opportunity to learn about what makes Canada such a wonderful country, to reflect upon the things which we often take for granted, and to develop intellectually as a Canadian, as a leader, and as a person. We don\u2019t all have to agree on issues, but we do need to listen, to learn and to grow as the world changes around us. This is an outstanding opportunity to experience the best of Canada.\nHon. Stephanie Cadieux (2008)\nMinister of Children and Family Development, Province of British Columbia\nMLA Surrey-Panorama\nEducational, exhilarating, exhausting! Definitely one of the best professional and personal experiences of my life! Trust me, it is not what you expect and 100 times better. When my boss asked me to apply, all I could think about was the mountain of emails that would be waiting for me when I got back and was neither enthusiastic nor optimistic about getting anything out of it. I thought I already had an open and accepting mind and heart. I thought that I already understood diversity and the value of it in the world and in business. I thought that I knew our great country. I found out that I knew very little. This opportunity will change how you think, how you work and most importantly how you live.\nDirector, Business Strategy & Sustainability \u2013 Logistics\nAbsolutely the best personal and professional development experience I have ever had. Travelling to a different area of Canada and meeting with business, labour, NGO\u2019s, social activists and indigenous peoples gave me a new perspective on Canada and myself. Each study group, by design, included people with a wide variety of backgrounds. All were leaders in their own right and were committed to growing as leaders and individuals. We learned a great deal from each other, whether we realized it at the time or subsequently. This is truly a unique forum for providing such an excellent opportunity for growth.\nSenior Director, Treasury and Corporate Development\nThe Conference has brought me 15 days of discomfort, stress, queries, discussion, long hours, consensus and re-energizing. I have been confronted with troubling realities in all the places that our group visited. This is an unforgettable and rewarding experience that makes you think differently now for later.\nBeno\u00eet Celestino (2008) Pr\u00e9sident national, Syndicat des technicien(ne)s et artisan(e)s\ndu r\u00e9seau fran\u00e7ais de Radio-Canada (STARF)\nTaking part in the Governor General\u2019s Canadian Leadership Conference had a great impact on me. Two weeks of fascinating encounters, engaging discussions, challenging dominant views and seeing that we are all leaders in our own right. Visiting Newfoundland and Labrador with leaders from all walks of life allowed me to analyze in a different light some of the challenges facing our country and has deeply changed the way I work. A fascinating human experience not to be missed!\nPremi\u00e8re directrice, initiatives strat\u00e9giques et int\u00e9gration\nThe Governor General\u2019s Canadian Leadership Conference is a once in a lifetime leadership opportunity that simply cannot be duplicated in any other setting. Working with a group of people that came from vastly different backgrounds from me, not only in terms of their professions but also culturally, was a tremendous learning experience. We discovered that while we did not necessarily share even the most basic values, we still became close friends and learned a tremendous amount from each other and from the amazing community leaders that we met everyday. I was forced to get out of my comfort zone and was pushed to do things I would never have done both physically and emotionally. For anyone searching to move their leadership to a level that goes far beyond the traditional, this is the conference for you!\nMauricette Howlett, M.Sc (2008)\nRegional Director / Directrice r\u00e9gionale Public Health Agency of Canada / Agence de la sant\u00e9\npublique du Canada Ontario and Nunavut Region \u2013 R\u00e9gion de l\u2019Ontario et du Nunavut\nAs a new Canadian, I found the Governor General\u2019s Canadian Leadership Conference to be a perfect opportunity to better understand and connect with my adopted homeland. During the course of two weeks, our group toured Nova Scotia, and we met with key leaders and stakeholders; remarkable people who make a difference in their communities everyday. Along the way, we debated key issues, and forged solid, lifelong friendships with a diverse group of individuals we would have never met during our normal daily lives. Having attended several leadership courses during my career, I can attest to the fact that very few come close to the real-life experience that the Conference provides. Without doubt, this is a once in a lifetime experience!\nDirector-Strategic Planning,\nGM of Canada Ltd.\nThe 2008 GGCLC was a remarkable journey of discovery: discovery of the interplay between different sectors, discovery of a variety of divergent leadership approaches, discovery of the many facets of this incredible country, discovery of new friends and networks, discovery of self. That this journey took place over such a short timeframe (and although 2.5 weeks seemed like a big commitment at the outset, it was tiny in the greater scheme of things) made it all the more amazing. The Governor General herself was very present, and had a big impact on participants as did the many other speakers and participants. It was an honour to be selected as part of the 2008 cohort; I highly recommend this opportunity to those considering the 2012 session.\nDesign Centre for Sustainability at UBC\n\u201cAttending the 2008 GGCLC was an incredible opportunity to learn from renowned Canadian and international leaders. The chance to listen, learn and interact with the leaders, presenters and fellow delegates in both formal and informal environments allowed for truthful, respectful and diverse dialogue on the recipe for the various successful communities across Canada and other countries. Together, our group worked on how we can each develop a strong understanding of the ingredients for a thriving community. We learned that experience, collaboration and dedication can be solutions to our leadership challenges at the corporate, government, political and community levels. I learned as much about myself as I did about the fellow delegates I spent two weeks touring Saskatchewan with. It was a time to see how other leaders have stretched from within their comfort zones at work and the places they live to provide other members of their communities with safer and better places to live. It took six months to really digest everything I experienced and apply it to my personal career and community goals\u201d.\nDeputy Commissioner, Ontario Provincial Police\nNo other leadership course offers our great nation and its vast and diverse communities and geography as a classroom. A leadership course where participants, leaders in their own right, from all walks of professional life in Canada are your teachers, mentors and you theirs. Your two week journey will thrust you into issues, environments, socio-economic settings and circumstances possibly for the very first time. You will witness first hand the success, struggles and innovations of our fellow Canadian citizens and those they represent. The opportunity to share, challenge and debate the many public policy issues you and your group encounter will teach you more about your Country and yourself than any lecture ever will. The friends and colleagues I met have left a positive and lasting imprint on my professional development and I continue to draw on this experience on my personal and professional life.\nRegional Director General,\nIndian and Northern Affairs Canada, Saskatchewan\nIt was an honour to have participated in the 2008 GGCLC where my study group went to Newfoundland and Labrador. The east coast is beautiful and the people were welcoming everywhere we went. My study group was from all background of careers which made it interesting and I am proud to have been in the group. The daily travel where we met in the evenings and woke up early for our next travel was exhausting but definitely worth it. I will also remember and treasure my involvement in the conference and I highly recommend those to take part.\nActing Manager, Finance and Administration,\nDepartment of Culture, Language, Elders and Youth, Government of Nunavut\nTo say that the opportunity to participate in the 2008 Governor General\u2019s Canadian Leadership Conference was \u2018life-changing\u2019 would, to some degree, minimize its impact. The chance to participate in such a \u2018big picture\u2019 experience with a diverse group of colleagues from all walks of Canadian life and experiences was a true gift. Despite being born and raised in Canada, I discovered my true national pride as part of this Conference. The experience stretched me in ways I could never have imagined and challenged my thinking on my role in my own community. I was exposed to ideas, history, and points of view that I could never have experienced in any other venue\u2026. I had the chance to participate in engaging dialogue around the qualities of leadership needed to move our communities, and our country, forward. If such a unique experience isn\u2019t completely life-altering, I don\u2019t know what is!\nSt. Joseph\u2019s Health Care Foundation, London, ON\nWhat an honour it was to be one of the lucky Canadians chosen to experience the personal journey one embarks on by attending the GGCLC. It still makes me misty-eyed, years later, when I think back to all the extraordinary people I met and the wonderful communities I visited. The pride I felt in the achievements of these communities reaffirmed my pride in being Canadian. My participation in this challenging conference led to a personal transformation which I believe has made me a more effective leader. The chance to embrace the diversity in which I was immersed was particularly rewarding \u2013 one must be prepared to live outside of their comfort zone in order to gain the full benefit of this exceptional conference. I believe that participating in the conference has made me a better person. I\u2019m grateful for the opportunity and I wouldn\u2019t change a thing about my experience.\nRegional Representative, Prairies,\nThrough this wonderful opportunity my Canada got bigger and smaller at the same time. We were able to experience a part of the country so diverse and with an amazing group of individuals as diverse as the province. I realized while we all look though different lenses of our past experiences our very diverse group found common themes. So rather than divide us, this experience brought us as a group together. This was a fabulously enriching experience that I would encourage anyone to take advantage of given the opportunity. This experience helped make me a better Canadian and a better leader and in some small way I hope I can give some of this back.\nChairperson, Environment Technical & Operational Component\nBritish Columbia Government and Service Employees Union\nI had been pushed to attend the 2008 Leadership Conference by an alumni of the 2004 Conference, so I had a better idea than most of the other participants of the experience that was coming. Even so, the Conference exceeded my expectations. The chance to meet people from very diverse backgrounds, experiencing this group of total strangers come together as a tight group, and in fact become friends in a little over two weeks was an experience I will always treasure. We learned a great deal from our tour, but we also learned from each other, and I certainly came away from the Conference with a clearer idea of what I wanted to achieve in my life.\nDavid Black, (2008)\nCanadian Office and Professional and Professional Employees Union\nAt the 2004 conference, Adrienne Clarkson said \u201cThere are wonderful leaders who watch where people are going and gently, insistently herd them from all sides \u2013 even behind \u2013 rather like a good sheep dog\u201d. This confirmed for me that I don\u2019t have to be a \u201csaviour, dynamo, [or] hero\u201d to be an effective leader. We met leaders in communities across the Yukon, national and international leaders as conference speakers, and leaders who were conference participants. We saw how the main goal of effective leaders is to encourage leadership in others, and how they ask questions, challenge assumptions, and have their own assumptions challenged. Exactly how the conference was modeled. This is an experience like no other, and I know it has made me a better Canadian and a better public servant.\nDirector, Planning & Integration, The Leadership Network\nPublic Service Human Resources Management Agency of Canada\nThis leadership conference will change you. Firstly, it really is a \u201conce in a lifetime experience\u201d. You will meet incredibly diverse and interesting people from all walks of life, each with something valuable to contribute to your personal growth. Your preconceived ideas about others will forever be changed and you will be inspired to make a difference. Second, there is an immeasurable \u201ctake home value\u201d. You will learn what it means to be a real leader, to listen before talking, to learn from those you previously thought don\u2019t have anything to teach you, to understand instead of trying to convince, to respectfully agree to disagree.\nIn short, you will be proud to be Canadian.\nCEO , brainPen inc.\nThe 2004 Governor General\u2019s Canadian Leadership Conference was a truly vision-altering experience. The exposure to the various opinions, ideals and visions at all levels of business, government and communities was worth every moment. It was really wonderful to see our country, both the good and the bad, through the eyes of participants who were there to enhance their leadership skills to help move their organizations and this country forward. My leadership style has been positively affected for life!\nJoan Jessome (2004)\nPresident, Nova Scotia Government Employees Union\nAfter having three years to reflect on my experiences during the 2000 Governor General Canadian Study Conference, I can say that I truly have a broader appreciation for Canada and the issues we face as Canadians. Although I learned more about Nova Scotia, I also learned more about myself and my capabilities with the help of my fellow colleagues on the tour. They helped me realize my potential and this has given me more confidence to continue working in my chosen field of bridging cultures through community development. In fact, I have since started my own consulting company, and attribute that decision to the experience gained during the conference.\nBridging Circles\nThe Conference allowed me to live an experience unique in this country, in which all of my assumptions were put to the test. It was an unequalled opportunity to explore areas of public interest and to exchange ideas with people from completely different fields of knowledge.\nMarc-Philippe Laurin (2000)\nTechnician/Associate-producer CBC, Chair of the CBC Bargaining Unit\nCommunications, Energy and Paperworkers Union\nI went to get shaken. You have to be able to be influenced. You have to be a very, very open-minded person. I learned that there are a lot of shades of grey \u2013 nothing is black and white.\nVice President Communications,\nIn our business we believe that behaviors are influenced by people\u2019s mindsets which in turn are influenced by values and experiences. I can tell you unequivocally that my participation in the 2004 GG Leadership conference became an experience which altered my own mindset about important issues in our country. Whether it was experiencing a different meaning of the word community while walking through Vancouver\u2019s eastside or discovering the history, the complexities and real issues facing First Nations which motivate their profound perspective around self-government. As I was \u201cliving\u201d these and many other memorable moments with a great group of very diverse and passionate fellow conference attendees, I thought that our country would be a better place if every Canadian did this!! I was one of the lucky ones. It\u2019s up to me now !\nSr Vice-President, Quebec and Atlantic divisions\nThe GG Conference was, for me, one of those life changing events. Not only did I gain a greater appreciation of the different segments of our society; i.e.., poor, illiterate, sick, union, business, social services, but I gained a much larger and greater appreciation of myself and the larger country I am a part of, live in and influence. I came to both understand and appreciate that I had the potential to influence, shape and support a greater sphere of this land we call home, Canada. The GG Conference continues to shape my leadership decisions and influence my life and for this I remain indebted to those who provide me with an opportunity to participate.\nRegistrar / Director Customer Services\nI found my experience on the 2000 Canadian Governor General\u2019s study tour to be an exceptional opportunity. To this day, I still refer to my experience as a unique learning opportunity. It was a privilege to be chosen and exposed to a variety of individuals from varying backgrounds. I learned more about my country, about myself and how I could improve my leadership ability. The Conference allowed me to grow both professionally and personally. It is an experience not to be missed.",

I constantly see people, who don't have a handicap permit or license plate, park in designated spots reserved for those who may be handicapped in Lafayette.\nWhether it's at a gas station, shopping center or even at a restaurant some people simply do not care that they are taking a parking spot reserved for someone that may have trouble getting around. And I get it, we are living in a self-entitled era, but this is getting to be ridiculous.\nI've watched people hop out of their vehicle and RUN into a gas station, while parked in a handicap spot. They have no regard for others.\nA few years back Lafayette Police became really proactive by citing those who park in handicap spots that don't belong. I don't know if they still enforce this law on a daily basis, but I wish that they would.\nI write this hoping that you would never occupy a handicap parking spot if you don't need to. I would also ask that you share this with others on social media.\nIf Lafayette wants to act like a progressive city, can we at least start by respecting those who may need assistance getting around?\nIt is past time that we respect designated parking spots in this city, and in all of south Louisiana.",

        "raw_content": "Evans Equipment Wash Pad Commercial Photography Shoot Near San Diego\nEvans Equipment and Environmental specializes in industrial water treatment equipment. The company recently required photo-documentation and publication quality commercial photography to highlight and promote their custom heavy equipment wash pad to use in their website and marketing material. To create those photos, the company commissioned Andrew Abouna Photography for a photo shoot of a new wash pad installation at H&E Equipment Services in El Cajon, San Diego County. H&E Equipment Services is one of the biggest integrated equipment dealerships in the United States. The gallery shown here provides a few sample shots that we captured on that shoot for Evans.\nAs a San Diego photographer, we\u2019ve seen many opportunities and locations for commercial photography in the Southern California, whether onsite at a client facility, or at a unique setting that can be used to highlight or even contrast with a client\u2019s product or services. But regardless of location, the most important elements in commercial photography are showcasing the product or service being photographed.\nAlong with setting, we find that lighting and camera perspective are also very important. Evenly lit studio lighting or contrasting off-center or backlighting are a couple of examples that can be used in commercial photography. These lighting techniques are ones that we use for photography in San Diego and other cities. For the Evans Equipment Wash Pad Commercial Photography shoot we elected for the most even lighting possible, in order to give the best overall view of the equipment.\nCamera perspective and settings, as well as choice of lenses, are also very important to acquiring more than just good shots, but also ones that are different and even unique to the commercial product or service being photographed. In this shoot for Evans, you\u2019ll see that we used three different lenses, including one that provided a normal view, a moderate fish eye, and a telephoto lens.\nPerhaps one of the most important aspects of commercial photography is post-shoot editing. In fact, editing can be as important as the photo shoot itself, and it\u2019s often where a photographer\u2019s style and quality of work can really be seen. As you\u2019ll see in this commercial shoot for Evans, the photos have a certain look. The colors, cropping, composition, and overall look and feel have a style that has been developed largely during the photo editing process. Proper editing in all of our photography projects in San Diego is a required step in order to be able to deliver quality photographic products to our clients.\nPrevious articleAeromedevac Air Ambulance Equipment\nNext articleFashion Model Photography for Wig USA\nEvent Photography, Portrait and Model Photography",

        "raw_content": "Constructing a Governing Party: Pre-Legislative Policy Coordination between Government and Governing Party in Japan and R.O.K\nJisun PARK,\nPostgraduate International Research Student, Graduate School of Law and Politics,\nKeywords: pre-legislative policy coordination, intra-party mode in Japan and R.O.K, intra-governing party management\nThis research examines how governing party leaders have used pre-legislative policy coordination between the government and the governing party (P-LPC) as a tool to achieve party unity. P-LPC refers to a deliberation by a governing party on a government bill immediately prior to presentation in the Diet. The focus is on the LDP and DPJ in Japan, and DRP, NKP, and Uri Party in Korea.\nThis study is important because previous studies on P-LPC have emphasized institutional separation between the executive and the legislative or policy preference differences between the government and governing party, not intra-party management.\nThis dissertation addresses three hypotheses, which relate party disunity, in turn, to institutionalization, to institutional change, and to revival of the P-LPC. The P-LPCs in Japan and R.O.K, which are highly institutionalized, are analyzed using the process tracing method. Internal party documents and memoranda, including LDP Seisakugeppo and party activity reports of the Republic of Korea National Election Commission, were used.\nThis research discovered that intra-party conflicts have influenced the institutionalization, institutional change, and revival of the P-LPC in both countries. These conflicts had a more direct and immediate effect on revival of the Japanese P-LPC, compare to the case of Korea. Further research on P-LPCs in other democracies will be needed to develop a more general model of the operation of P-LPC.",

        "title": "ADHD Treatment (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder Counseling and Therapy)",
        "raw_content": "How Adult ADHD Affects Relationships: Strategies for Coping\nAn adult with ADD walks into a relationship carrying a great deal of emotional baggage. This is especially true if he or she was not diagnosed until adulthood. Growing up knowing something isn't quite right but not knowing what it is, can lead one to make many erroneous conclusions. This can lead to the development of a negative and usually distorted self-image.\nThe messages an adult with attention deficits often carries with her, as well as her ADHD traits greatly affect her relationships. Looking at both the positive and negative traits that come with ADD can help shed some light on how strongly relationships are affected.. There are as many differences in adults with attention deficits as there are similarities, however. Each person I've seen in my private practice as an MFCC is quite unique. Some of the traits I'll describe in this article, therefore, fit for some people but not for others. There are differences between men and women and between those who exhibit traits of hyperactivity and impulsivity compared to the more inattentive, disorganized type of person.\nIn this article, I'll discuss messages ADD adults bring with them into relationships, ADD traits, and strategies for coping with relationships when one partner has ADD.\nAn adult with ADD or ADHD (I'll be using the two terms interchangeably) grows up hearing many negative messages from others. Parents, teachers, coaches, and peers notice the ADD individual's difficulty sitting still, following through, attending to what they are supposed to and they often comment on it. After being criticized over and over for traits he has no control over, this often undiagnosed child starts to feel bad about not measuring up to other's standards. He begins to internalize the messages he hears from others. Over time a sense of shame develops. This child isn't trying to break all the rules. For the most part, he'd like to please the adults around him but he can't figure out how. He has no idea when his brain will kick in and allow him to finish his math sheet or play quietly with a sibling.\nAs an adult, these feelings of shame often continue. Most of my adult clients tell me they've spent their lives feeling ashamed because they were unable to complete the tasks asked of them, couldn't concentrate even when they wanted to, or just stood out as being the class space cadet.\nThis has led them to make erroneous conclusions about themselves. I've been amazed at how many times an obviously bright, articulate, and interesting ADD adult has sat in my office and told me that he thinks of himself as stupid. Frequently, a woman who I clearly believe is bright has spent years telling herself she is stupid because she can't figure out why she can't perform as well as others around her.\nOther messages adults with ADD internalize include, \"He (she) always blames me. If he (she) wouldn't be so picky, things would be fine. It's really his (her) fault for making such a fuss about those little things.\" Still other individuals have made numerous attempts to be organized, on time, and to follow through on tasks with little success. Many of these people say to themselves, \"I can't do it no matter how hard I try.\" Another prevalent message I've heard in my office is more common with the higher achieving adult with attention deficits. He or she carries the belief, \"I am a fraud and it's only a matter of time before \"they\" find out.\" This person manages to get his job done but may do so by putting in many extra hours to keep up with his non- ADD co-workers or the individual may get overwhelmed by lots of verbal directions and be petrified that her boss will discover incomplete tasks that she missed because of overload. These adults describe the feeling of always waiting to be found out.\nGrowing up with attention deficit disorder also means repeatedly receiving certain messages from others. Some of these messages are confusing at best while others are clearly damaging to one's self-concept. Such messages include: \"If only you'd try harder.\" This can be an especially destructive thing to say because trying harder doesn't allow someone with ADHD to sit still any longer, to concentrate, or to complete tasks. Telling someone who is trying and still can't do it to try harder can only lead her to think poorly of herself for her lack of success.\n\"Don't do it that way.\" \"Your way is wrong.\" Many children and adults with ADHD can see novel or unique ways to approach a task. Unfortunately, these creative ideas are often squelched by traditional thinkers who insist things be done \"the right way\".\nOther ideas imparted to those with ADD include, \"Why can't you just...do it ?\" The \"it\" might be concentrate, get started on the assignment, clean up your room, or sit quietly. A child with ADHD doesn't know why she can't do it and often begins to see herself as inadequate when continuously confronted with her shortcomings. She is told time and again, \"Sit still\", \"Wait your turn\", \"Don't call out\", \"Look at your mess!\", \"You'd forget your head if it wasn't attached to you!\", \"Pay attention\", \"You're just lazy!\" These messages which usually come from well-meaning but frustrated adults can be very harmful to the child's sense of self.\nDespite carrying this emotional baggage with him, an adult with ADD can be quite attractive to people he meets. He brings excitement and energy to life. He knows how to have fun and may show a wonderful sense of humor. This can be stimulating to others he encounters. An adult with ADD is often creative and sees new perspectives. Many of the adults I have met have a fresh or innocent way of perceiving the world. They have multi-faceted viewpoints and varied interests. I've met men and women who have a breadth of knowledge due to their varied interests and others who have a depth of knowledge in specific areas because they focus better on one thing at a time. Clients I've seen have usually been caring and empathic people. Despite their numerous setbacks, they manage to pick themselves up and try again. They have been both persistent and determined.\nBeing in an ongoing relationship with an adult who has attention deficit disorder brings one face to face with the problematic traits also associated with ADHD. It is often difficult for an adult with ADD to stay tuned in to conversations. She may become easily bored or just distracted by other stimuli. Due to the many obstacles encountered daily, he may believe he can't do \"it\" and may not bother trying. He may be unrealistic about time commitments, truly believing it will only take five minutes to make a stop and then comes home two hours late, infuriating his partner. An adult with ADD may have problems saying no to demands placed on her. After years of being criticized by parents, teachers, and partners, she may say yes to get others off her back. She often does this automatically without thinking through whether she can or wants to do what is asked. A related trait is difficulty setting clear limits. If one is easily distracted, underestimates how long it takes to do things, and feels external pressure to do his share, he probably has trouble setting a clear limit for himself. He, therefore, takes on more than he can do and as a result leaves many tasks unfinished or forgets important appointments in his harried state.\nAn adult who has ADHD may begin to resent the criticism she receives from significant others. This resentment makes her less likely to even try to find ways to be more responsible about the areas her partner is constantly complaining about.\nAnother recurrent theme I hear from adults I work with is that they have trouble trusting themselves. When a woman with ADHD repeatedly can't complete tasks within the time she expects, wastes entire days trying to get started on seemingly easy projects, and misses important details in conversations, she has trouble believing her intuition is right. She may, therefore, go along with what someone else tells her, even when she doesn't agree. These same people are then prone to let others determine their self worth. A man whose boss is always pushing him to do more, despite his record sales figures, may see himself as a failure at work.\nIn addition to the issues I've elaborated on above, adults with ADHD often have problems noticing social cues. If one is not attending to the nuances of facial expressions, voice tone, and body language, he is likely to miss the meaning of his spouse's words. This can lead the partner of a person with ADD to feel her spouse may not care about what she is saying.\nGiven all the difficulties, is a person with ADD, therefore doomed in his relationships? I do not believe this to be the case at all. An adult with ADD will, however, have to work harder at her relationships than her non-ADD peers. Relatives, friends, and significant others will need to be patient, flexible and understanding. The following strategies will help adults with ADD cope with important interpersonal relationships:\n1. Be self-accepting. Your brain is wired differently. That does not mean you are inadequate. It means you will need to learn and practice techniques that will allow you to function up to your capacity. You and your physician may decide that medication is advisable.\n2. Have realistic expectations of yourself. Figure out what you can realistically do. Begin by leaving extra time for tasks. You can also time yourself on your daily responsibilities to get an actual picture of how long things really take.\n3. Give yourself credit for what you have accomplished. Allow yourself recognition even for the small steps you take. If partners, friends, and parents, comment on the positive steps that the adult with ADHD makes, it is likely to increase her efforts.\n4. Understand your own limitations and plan for them.Determine what your most alert time is and have important interpersonal conversations then. Take breaks as needed to help compensate for your distractibility and to prevent getting overloaded, but agree to a follow-up discussion time.\n5. Anticipate your needs in advance and make plans to deal with them. If, for example, you know a four hour Sunday dinner at your in-laws will leave you antsy, irritable, and impulsive, let your spouse know in advance that you will need to take a walk midway through the evening.\n6. If you tend to forget appointments or responsibilities you've agreed to, or are constantly running late, use datebooks, a family calendar, Post-it notes, or other reminders.\n7. Allow for burn-out time. Learn to recognize what activities leave you feeling spent and schedule time to recharge your batteries.\n8. When making agreements with your significant other about chores, obligations, or even social events, plan a follow-up meeting. Decide in advance how to deal with it if the adult with ADD forgets to do what he agreed to. What is the best way for his partner to notify him? How can the partner be reminded to break her unhelpful patterns? If each member of the couple lets the other know what would feel like a kind and helpful reminder, success is more likely.\n9. Significant others need to strike a balance. Recognize the limitations of your partner, but don't overcompensate for them as that may leave you feeling resentful. Rather than just doing the job for the forgetful adult with ADD, try job swapping so each person is taking on tasks that are more in line with their liking and abilities. Parents of ADD adults need to give their adult children room to try it their way and flounder if necessary. The adult can only learn to do it himself if parents don't take over for him.\n10. Be honest with yourself and others as to commitments. Think through whether you have the time, energy, and desire to do what's being asked of you. If you feel \"on the spot\" and need time to determine this, tell your significant other you need to think about it and you'll get back to her about it. Admit when you've messed up. Others are more forgiving if you are not defensive about your mistakes. Make a plan to improve your performance and tell your partner how you will attempt to avoid that particular problem again.\n11. Set limits for yourself. This ties back to accepting yourself and ADD's effect on you and to being honest with important people in your life. Say, \"No\" when it's appropriate. Recognize you can't do it all and don't even try. Kindly let others know when you feel overloaded or need space to recharge your battery.\n12. Set up your environment to match your abilities and limitations. If, for example, you hate doing yardwork and can't afford to hire someone to do it, get a low maintenance yard. If sitting still for hours is difficult for you, pass on the invitation to see a three hour movie with a friend. If you concentrate best in a quiet setting with no distractions, create that area to use for bill paying or paperwork.\n13. Do things your way if it works for you and doesn't hurt anyone. Your way may seem strange to others, but it's important to honor your uniqueness and creativity. It is important for the spouse or partner of an adult with ADHD to understand the myriad of emotional issues that ADD adds to significant relationships. When a partner can understand these issues and accept them, the relationship has the best chance of success. Furthermore, the partner needs to recognize that an adult with an attention deficit cannot choose to turn her symptoms on or off.\nThe adult with ADHD can improve his relationships by getting appropriate treatment both to deal with the effects ADD has had on his life and to develop strategies for coping with current issues. Appropriate treatment should include working with a professional who has experience with adult ADD. Educating oneself about attention deficit disorder through reading and attending workshops is an important step. Medication is another component to consider. Couples counseling, group therapy, or behaviorally oriented individual therapy may also be be indicated, depending on each adult's needs.",

        "raw_content": "A \u201cmighty fine\u201d mess.\nDirector Debbie Goodstein\u2018s Mighty Fine is the melodramatic tale of how a father, although well intended\u2013overstretched his financial capabilities and demeanor to give his family everything he thought they should have to be happy. Unfortunately, the film is short of several \u201cwell intended\u201d scenes that would have made this a \u201cmighty fine\u201d film. The semi-autobiographical tale is set in the early 70s where an older Natalie Fine (Jodelle Ferland) narrates the tale about how she, her mother Stella (Andie MacDowell) and sister Maddie (Rainey Qualley), navigated a manic-depressive husband and father (Chazz Palminteri) explosive mood-swings.\nJoe Fine (Palminteri) moves his family and textile business from Brooklyn to New Orleans to take advantage of the business incentives the area had to offer. He purchased a 8,000 square foot home and lavished his family with material splendor beyond his means. For awhile, things were going very well. Soon, Joe\u2019s business began to have a few setbacks\u2013the proposed incentives began to dissipate at the same time his relationship with his family and long time business partner Lenny (Arthur J. Nascarella) began to fracture.\nThis could have been a really good family drama, yet became more of a mix of predictable miscellanies. Suffering from a lack of plot and character development, the film eluded details about what specifically happened with Joe\u2019s failed business deals; MacDowell\u2019s undermining performance as his wife Stella, a Holocaust survivor, were less than memorable. Maddie\u2019s (Qualley), rebellious demeanor seemed forced while Natalie (Ferland), the film narrator and poet\u2013just like the family dog, failed to evoke the emotional \u201cpunch\u201d the film so desperately needed. There were several significant directions the story could have gone in order to reveal the film\u2019s more dramatic and important points\u2013but didn\u2019t. This could have been a well to do \u201ccoming of age\u201d tale. However, those significant and poignant moments were mostly ignored.\nIn the end, Mighty Fine, became nothing more than a \u201cmighty fine\u201d mess.\nDebbie Goodstein\u2019s Mighty Fine DVD stars Chazz Palminteri (A Bronx Tale), Andie MacDowell (Groundhog Day), Jodelle Ferland (The Twilight Saga: Eclipse) and Rainey Qualley in her feature film debut.

        "raw_content": "Photo credit Martin Sattler on Unsplash\nSwitzerland for 8 nights. Zurich, Lucerne, Engelberg, Montreux, Interlaken, Chamonix (France), Geneva, Chexbres, Gruyere, Annecy (France).\nWhat season did you travel?\nIt was late Spring (early April) \u2013 so just outside their peak season. The air was still crisp and it made for a really lovely time to visit. The flowers were just coming out. Although, I suspect that any time of year is just magnificent in Switzerland.\nWhat were some of your highlights?\nGosh, there were so many things that I loved about Switzerland. In terms of things to do and see\u2026\nEven though it was late Spring, the mountains are high enough to still allow people to ski well after the end of winter. Of course, the runs aren\u2019t as long as they are in winter, but it makes for a really diverse travel experience to be able to paddle board and ski in the same week in the same country. In fact, whilst I was there, we met a group of Italians who\u2019d skied over for the day \u2013 as you do.\nI think my favourite part of the trip was Lucerne. The town itself is known for its preserved medieval architecture, sits amid snowcapped mountains on Lake Lucerne. Its colorful Altstadt (Old Town) is bordered on the north by 870m Museggmauer (Musegg Wall), a 14-century rampart. The covered Kapellbr\u00fccke (Chapel Bridge), built in 1333, links the Aldstadt to the Reuss River\u2019s right bank.\nThe best part of Lucerne for me though was the Lion of Lucerne. It\u2019s huge and carved into a sandstone rock wall above a pond. That was to commemorate the Swiss guards that were massacred during the French Revolution in 1792. It\u2019s such a beautiful, yet mournful sculpture and it\u2019s amazing to see how it was carved out of the rock. I just stood there and looked at that for a long time.\nAnd shortly before that, I\u2019d wandered across Chapel Bridge \u2013 the covered bridges (there are actually three structures), where centuries ago (1600\u2019s) a painter created 158 paintings depicting events from the town\u2019s history during the Counter-Reformation. And the town\u2019s council members of the time were allowed to add their coat\u2019s of arms to the images. Despite suffering from a fire in the 90\u2019s, it\u2019s still a beautiful piece of history that you just don\u2019t see anywhere else. The longevity\nof the history in Europe was a constant reminder of how young modern Australian history really is.\nBe sure to take a horse and cart tour of Engelberg \u2013 it\u2019s stunning. And if you\u2019re up for something a little different, book a tour through one of the dairy farm houses. It\u2019s a bit of a mind-boggling combination of centuries-old old-school farming and modern innovation. If you\u2019re lucky, your farm host might even treat you to a Raclette cheese experience \u2013 accompanied by some warming schnapps.\nThe old town of Gruyere is another amazing place to ponder and look through. Everything is centred around an old fortress and all the streets are made of cobblestones so they don\u2019t allow cars there. As soon as the doors of the bus opened you could smell the cheese and chocolate. There are English speaking tours for the Maison Cailler chocolate factory \u2013 so make sure to book that in. Through the tour they explain the chocolate making process. And at the end of the tour, you can taste as much as you like of the chocolate. That was very tempting!\nDid you discover any hidden gems?\nOh my, yes! Annecy. It\u2019s like a little Venice \u2013 albeit with alps in the background. Many of the houses are built over the lake with canals between them. Lake Annecy feeds into the Thiou River. Annecy is known for its Vieille Ville (old town), with cobbled streets, winding canals and pastel-coloured houses. Overlooking the city, the medieval Ch\u00e2teau d\u2019Annecy. once home to the Counts of Geneva, now contains a museum with regional artefacts such as Alpine furniture and religious art, plus a natural history exhibit\nAlthough actually, it\u2019s not in Switzerland, it\u2019s just across the French boarder. But it was so stunning, it was worth the little detour. We were there on a Sunday and Sunday\u2019s are seen as a \u2018family day\u2019. Although many of the shops were closed, there were plenty of places to grab a bite and people watch along the water. Of course if you felt like being more active, you could play on a paddleboard or pedal boat.\nWhere there any surprises along the way?\nYes absolutely! Several. The first was it was just so diverse. Although it was one country, it felt like three or four. One minute people were speaking German, we were looking at German signs, eating quite Germanic food. But then two hours down the road, it felt like you were in France. And then in some places it felt like you could be in Italy with the breathtaking terraced vineyards.\nAnd the second was that it was just not what I expected. You expect \u2018pretty\u2019 views. But, everywhere you look just takes your breath away. It is picture postcard perfect \u2013 every single minute. You feel like you\u2019re in the middle of an airbrushed postcard.\nThe colour of the water around Interlaken. It\u2019s so strikingly green \u2013 almost crystal green.\nWho would you suggest Switzerland as a destination for?\nActually everyone. I know quite a few people will have done the whistle-stop tour of Switzerland on a bus tour at some point, but there\u2019s just so much to see, you can\u2019t possibly do it justice in just a day or two.\nI could take my kids to Switzerland and they wouldn\u2019t be bored. There\u2019s plenty of adrenaline activities or activities if you\u2019re a couple seeking some romance. And it\u2019s foodie heaven \u2013 especially for cheese and chocolate (the Swiss aren\u2019t known for their chocolate for nothing!) and there are some wonderful wineries to explore too.\nBut also, for people my parents\u2019 age, it\u2019s easy to get around. Train travel is simple, almost everyone speaks English, and it\u2019s so safe \u2013 I\u2019d be confident having my parents travel around Switzerland.\nDo you have any final hints and tips to share?\nMake sure you take walking shoes. It\u2019s a truly magnificent place to wander and people watch.\nMy best tip is to take a tour \u2013 it\u2019s the best way to find all those out of the way things that you might otherwise miss. And they\u2019re great at explaining history and background to the sites. I did and I\u2019m so glad I did.\nBe sure to make time to see the United Nations in Geneva.",

        "raw_content": "ALFCA \u00bb Uncategorized \u00bb National High School Football Alliance Started\nA National High School Football Alliance is being formed to help promote the game and the new executive director is a friend of football in Alabama and the ALFCA. Former Sweet Home (Ore) High School coach Rob Younger became friends with ALFCA executive director Jack Wood many years ago when they both served on a NFHS board. Younger retired from coaching several years ago, but both he and his son Dave have attended the ALFCA convention in Montgomery and both have been presenters as well.\n\u201cI can\u2019t think of a better person to lead the charge for high school football in our nation,\u201d said Wood. Rob has a great heart for football, its players and coaches. His integrity will be a great asset for this alliance as it moves forward.\u201d\nThe following article on the Alliance appeared Tuesday in USA Today.\nBy: Jim Halley, USA TODAY High School Sports | March 27, 2018\nSeveral years ago, when the Pac-12 began scheduling football games on Friday night, Rob Younger, then the coach at Sweet Home, Ore., and other high school football coaches in the state were bothered.\nFacing head-to-head competition from the big boys would hurt high school team\u2019s gates and cost them potential volunteers, Oregon high school coaches were concerned.\nComplaints to Pac-12 commissioner Larry Scott went unheeded because it was too hard for the conference to turn down ESPN television money. However, when Younger and 32 other state high school association directors complained to the American Football Coaches Association, things changed.\n\u201cAll of a sudden, because the we had that voice, the number of Friday night college games was greatly reduced,\u201d Younger said.\nThe hope for a unified voice is giving rise to the National High School Football Coaches Alliance, USA Football will announce today.\nWhile there already is a National High School Basketball Coaches Association and a National High School Baseball Coaches Association, the Alliance is the first such group for high school football coaches.\nIt comes at a time when the sport has been threatened by concussion and CTE (Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy) concerns. The most recent participation survey by the National Federation of State High School Associations shows the participants in football (6, 8, 9 and 11 player) in 2016-17 was 1,086,748, are down 25,503 from 1,112,251 in the 2015-16 season. Youth football numbers are declining in many areas as well. According to the Chicago Tribune, the Chicagoland Youth Football League is down to 7,500 players compared to nearly 10,000 a decade ago.\n\u201cWe need to have consistent messaging,\u201d USA Football CEO Scott Hallenbeck said. \u201cThe football community feels we are evolving, giving players different entry points and options to the sport. We need to let people know of our concerns for safety and coaching education.\u201d\nThe Alliance grew out of a meeting at a national conference put on by USA Football two years ago. A task force, involving six high school association directors, was formed and this January, at another USA Football conference, coaches from 37 states agreed to create the Alliance.\nJ.T. Curtis, of John Curtis Christian (River Ridge, La.), the winningest active high school football coach in the country, said the Alliance could help coaches address other concerns, such as problems with college recruiting.\n\u201cHigh school football is one of the last pure forms of amateur athletics,\u201d Curtis said. \u201cProgression and money have had an impact on the game, and not necessarily in a positive way. If the Alliance can help us have a voice with the NCAA, that would be a good thing.\u201d\nThe Alliance\u2019s physical and digital platforms will be powered by USA Football, the sport\u2019s national governing body and Younger, now retired as a coach, will be the Alliance\u2019s executive director. The only major football state missing is Texas.\nYounger said that while some concerns are regional, there are a lot of common problems facing the sport throughout the country.\n\u201cEach state is unique but we really do share a lot of goals and concerns,\u201d Younger said. \u201cWe need a progressive proactive approach to the game of football.\u201d\nFollow Jim Halley on Twitter at: @jimhalley",

        "raw_content": "Alfa Romeo Disco Volante Touring picks up Design Award at Concorso di Elegance di Villa d\u2019Este\nPosted by Ernest | May 28, 2013 | Auto, Auto Events / News Briefs | 0 |\nAlfa Romeo last weekend presented the 2013 Disco Volante at the historic cars exhibition of Concorso di Eleganza di Villa d\u2019Este. The Alfa Romeo Disco Volante by Touring was one of the gems of the Italian historic cars showcase.\nVying for popular votes in the \u201cConcept Cars & Prototypes\u201d class, the Alfa Romeo Volante two-seater coup\u00e9 was crafted by the Milanese atelier on the base of the Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione; similar chassis and engine specifications.\nThe alluring car blends aesthetic quality, sporty highlights and the search for the essential, as well as employing cutting-edge materials (carbon fiber and aluminium) for minimal weight. Each example requires more than 4000 hours of highly qualified labor, and is built only on request.\nThe car pays homage to the Alfa Romeo 1900 C52 \u201cDisco Volante\u201d, a coup\u00e9 with unique characteristics that sees its 60th anniversary this year. Designed by Carrozzeria Touring in 1952, the C52 boasted the characteristics of extremely light weight and aerodynamic efficiency, making a great impact in the collective imagination and earning itself the nickname of \u2018Disco Volante\u2019 (Flying Saucer). It immediately became an icon of automotive design.\nThe backbone of the Alfa Romeo Disco Volante by Touring is the chassis of the Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione, selected for its light, rigid structure, perfect as the basis for redesigning a high-performance car. In detail, the architecture features a mid-front engine, transaxle gearbox and rear-wheel drive: this layout offers an optimal 49-51% load distribution between the front and rear ends. It features double-wishbone suspension, with forged aluminium uprights and supports and additional strut at the rear for toe-in control.\nThe compact, light engine is a 450 HP, 4.7-litre V8 with 480 Nm of maximum torque. The gearbox is electrically operated with 6 speeds and paddle control, while the limited-slip differential (LSD) and self-ventilating brakes are marked by their generous dimensions. With this specs, the Alfa Romeo Disco Volante by Touring accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 4.2 seconds and reaches 290 km/h.\nAt the conclusion of the Concorso exhibition, the Alfa Romeo Disco Volante picked up the brand\u2019s second \u2018Design Award for Concept Cars & Prototypes\u2019. Previously, the Alfa Romeo 4C was the overwhelming favorite at the historic cars exhibition.\nEdited: FIAT \u2013 Alfa Romeo\nPreviousNasim reveals fourth Peugeot Blue Box dealership in Batu Pahat, Johor\nNextCorvette Stingray gets more legitimate power output and torque, thanks to new performance exhaust\nMercedes-Benz S400L and E300 BlueTec Hybrids continue to be duty and excise tax free\nChery to debut new Compact SUV and various models at Frankfurt Motor Show\nMercedes-Benz Malaysia and Hap Seng Star initiate Proven Exclusivity program at new outlet",

        "title": "Ambiente Blog \u2022 The bamboo way of life.",
        "raw_content": "Bamboo is a giant grass, it\u2019s robust, and it\u2019s also a real heavyweight in terms of sustainability and the latest look. Bamboo may formerly have been known as the poor man\u2019s timber, but furniture designer Sandeep Sangaru has raised the status of this traditional staple and transformed it into a classy envoy for Indian tradition. He advocates this fast-growing material at the 2019 Ambiente partner country oasis, the Starry Night Caf\u00e9. In this interview we get to know a man who\u2019s begun to free up his home country\u2019s traditional techniques so they can be used in completely new ways.\nSandeep Sangaru is a time traveller, and he\u2019s into regeneration. He takes techniques based on centuries-old wisdom and makes them attractive to the global marketplace of tomorrow. The 44-year-old uses design as a means of engaging us with ancient crafts. His multi-award-winning studio in Bengaluru, India specialises in furniture design and craft skills. Sanguru was born in Shillong, a town in the mountainous north-east of India known as the Scotland of the East, where he learned to live alongside nature from a young age. \u201cEven as a child, I liked to take things apart and rebuild them, and I never lost that taste for experimentation\u201d, he explains. He studied at the National Institute of Design in Ahmedabad and worked both in mechanical engineering and the Indian film industry, before focusing on this potential, unique to India: the magnificent objects which only home-grown craftspeople can create.\nYour caf\u00e9 uses bamboo furniture under a starry sky. How typical is this of India?\n\u201cBamboo is part of everyday life in India\u2019s north-eastern states. The caf\u00e9 is inspired by the region\u2019s rural life and the way people socialise there every day. A multitude of woven bamboo light fittings form a canopy overhead that looks like the branches of a tree. Sitting there makes you feel like you\u2019re at a typical Indian village meeting place \u2013 we call them \u2018chaupals\u2019. The deep blue surroundings evoke the night sky and invite you to relax and enjoy.\u201d\nThe caf\u00e9\u2019s furniture and light fittings were designed in your Bengaluru studio. Bengaluru is known as India\u2019s Silicon Valley, a metropolis more international and cosmopolitan than anywhere else in India. Whereabouts do you work in this buzzing city?\n\u201cBengaluru has grown rapidly over the past few years, and this boom brings with it many structural challenges. I really love the weather there, which is mild all year round. My studio is on the outskirts of town, on a small plot of land.\u201d\nKeen-eyed observers can see bamboo growing in giant groves in India \u2013 literally see it: in ideal conditions it can grow over 1 m a day. Bamboo is brilliant and is recognised as the raw material for future generations because it is sustainable. Indeed, this tall green grass which many people believe is wood has lively, irregular surfaces which lend even industrially manufactured objects a unique and individual character.\nYour studio focuses on making objects from bamboo. How did that come about?\n\u201cInitially I didn\u2019t understand bamboo any better than the casual observer. It was only in the state of Tripura in north-east India, where I was teaching technical drawing to craftspeople, that I started to see bamboo in a different light. In Tripura, bamboo is part of the lifestyle. Everyone uses it in some shape or form, be it for bridge building, houses, fish traps or to shelter from the rain. Even children can weave baskets from bamboo before they reach school age. Everything I found there was both simple and functional. The industrial designer in me asked how far I could develop this multifaceted material.\u201d\nYour first design was a very unusual chair: it brought bamboo furniture straight into the 21st century.\n\u201cThe chair had only one leg and looked like a triangle. Not only did I want to showcase bamboo in a new way, I also wanted to invent a completely innovative production technique. I started to rethink how to split and coat bamboo. This one-legged stool was a sort of joke product, a prototype which garnered a lot of attention. Next, I designed a furniture collection which won the 2009 Red Dot Design Award. I called it \u2018Truss-Me\u2018, since nobody really trusted bamboo as a material. Benches and tables from this collection have been used in the Ambiente caf\u00e9.\u201d\nWe\u2019ve noticed the striking combination with steel and brass, and some of the bamboo strips are painted in different colours. The overall effect is light, yet sturdy. Furniture designers the world over must also want the same freedom in their designs, but bamboo is not their first choice of material yet. Why is that?\n\u201cIt\u2019s true that lots of designers have worked with bamboo, but in Europe there\u2019s no traditional knowledge about it as a material. So, in the West people work bamboo as they do wood. Western designers, who need to import the bamboo before they even begin, opt for a more industrial aesthetic. It\u2019s hard to obtain different types of bamboo on the market there. If you\u2019re going to work with bamboo, you really need to be where the material is.\u201d\nOverall, how would you say Indian furniture design fares on the international stage?\n\u201cWe still have work to do here. If we are to develop original designs which showcase our rich heritage and take it into the future, whether in industrially produced furniture or traditionally crafted objects, we need support from the furniture industry and the government. Right from the start, our designers thought like entrepreneurs do \u2013 because there were hardly any jobs or careers for them in industry. Many started with their own studio, took a leap of faith and carved out their own niche.\u201d\nSandeep Sangaru\u2019s new way of working with bamboo supercharged his business. He experimented further; this took him to Kashmir, where with wood carvers he breathed new life into two almost-forgotten Persian craft techniques. Pinjra-kari and Khatamband are traditional carving methods which produce a highly complex geometric pattern from triangles, squares and hexagons. Although this fine decor made of interconnecting strands and gaps in dark walnut wood had previously been used mainly on balconies and ceilings, our designer applied it to chairs.\nWhy Kashmir?\n\u201cI found it fascinating how cultures in Kashmir coexist. Persian craft techniques had arrived hundreds of years ago in that single small valley which I visited during my time in Kashmir. Local craftspeople gave it a distinctive shape. I asked myself how I could harmonise this cultural craft skill with contemporary design.\u201d\nSeen from the outside, these complicated patterns, some of them floral, seem shrouded in mystery. The same could be said of this workers\u2019 community, which gives the impression of being very private.\n\u201cIt\u2019s understandable, when a technique handed down from generation to generation is both unique and responsible for ensuring the community\u2019s income. If they shared a large part of their knowledge with outsiders, it would lead to commercialisation which would in turn reduce its value.\u201d\nYou soon also used terracotta with a traditional lacquering technique. Where did you come across this?\n\u201cIn Channapatna, not far from Bengaluru, where they make beads and toys from oleander wood. It doesn\u2019t pay well, which means few people are prepared to practise this ancient craft. The lacquering is based on a unique technique which I\u2019m experimenting with, and the result was a bamboo chair using this lacquer. This in turn encouraged the craftspeople to tread new paths, without having to take up new tools. Later, I turned my attention to terracotta. I saw the diversity in Indian ceramics, like those in the state of Manipur, and studied traditional cooking methods. It reminded me of my childhood, when my grandparents cooked in terracotta vessels over a wood fire. Terracotta gives food an earthy flavour; I really like it. I\u2019m currently focusing on hand-woven textiles, stonework and other techniques for employing sustainable materials.\u201d\nDozens of craftspeople are busy in Sandeep Sangaru\u2019s workshop \u2013 not only cutting, bending bamboo and lacquering, but also taking part in the design process. There are specialists from Tripura, woodworkers from Bihar and Kashmir and experienced lacquerware makers from Channapatna, all learning to develop new products: from the ideas on paper to the prototype to the market-ready item. Lots of workshops in India produce sustainably with a social conscience, and work closely with designers.\nManufacturing good products requires strong cooperation\u201d. What does your philosophy mean to you?\n\u201cWe create new knowledge, innovations and markets as a team. This in turn encourages the younger generation to carry on applying traditional techniques and using them more widely.\u201d\nI hear the iconic furniture designer George Katsutoshi Nakashima, who designed famous interiors for public buildings in the USA and was influenced by a deep religious conviction he developed during his stay in ashram in India, is someone you really admire. Are there others?\n\u201cYes, there is furniture designer Hans J. Wegner. Also Pablo Picasso, Vincent van Gogh, Claude Monet and the sculptor Anish Kapoor, to name but a few. I admire the way they look at things. Perhaps because their work contains such a feel of raw energy, refined.\u201d\nCan you give us any tips on the easiest ways to make a room more beautiful?\n\u201cTo my mind, lighting plays an important role in transforming a room into something new. The easiest makeover is changing colours and floor coverings. At home my style is reserved, even minimal. There are prototypes of my work all around the house.\u201d\n\u201cDesign is a way of life. Design is everything we do, every day. Essentially, that means solving a problem with resources that are available where you are. I learned that when I watched craftspeople at work. To me, they were designers before \u2018designers\u2019 even existed. When I studied design, I applied \u2018learning by doing\u2018, and came to see everything within a wider ecosystem. That\u2019s when I realised: the solution is not always a tangible product, it might just be a change in the decisions we make. I don\u2019t look at trends in order to do marketing. I look to the lifestyle and materials in my own country. I\u2019m convinced that well-designed products are timeless. Instead of seeking out trends, we should strive for quality.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Disability Insurance, often referred to as DI, is a type of income protection insurance that can be paid to workers that experience a disability and are no longer able to perform the functions of their job. Policy benefits are generally limited to the policyholder, but there are some policies that have been offering benefits to spouses and dependents as well.\nDo Employers Provide This Insurance?\nAlmost all employers provide this insurance in the form of worker\u2019s compensation. Worker\u2019s compensation is a less thorough form of DI, however, in that only injuries occurring at work are eligible for payment.\nSome employers offer DI to their employees outside of normal worker\u2019s comp through their regular insurance programs. Employees often must pay a premium monthly out of their paychecks for this insurance.\nWhen you are injured or otherwise disabled and are no longer able to work at your place of employment, or must work a different job with a lower salary, you are eligible for the benefits from your DI policy. After working with your agent, you can start getting insurance payments from your policy up to the amount that you would have been getting from work. If you are able to work a different job, your insurance will cover the difference between the amount you used to make and the amount you are making now.\nGenerally, there are limits on when are able to collect this insurance. Short term disability policies will pay out for the first three to six months of your disability. Long term policies will not start paying until about the sixth month of your disability, and most policies allow you to collect until you are of retirement age (65 years old in most states).\nOther Types of DI Policies\nAs well as short term and long term DI policies, there are also several specialized forms of DI insurance. Individual DI Policies are often an option for those who own a business or are self-employed. There are even Business Overhead Expense DI polices available, which will pay business expenses if an owner becomes disabled. Most people opt to go with their employer provided DI policies.",

        "raw_content": "That's what the ad on the table at the restaurant last night read, at any rate. If you need a handyman, however, you're out of luck. Or, I might fix it for you.\nThe toilet in the master bath of my condo sounded as if it were constantly trickling water into the commode. My mom had a handy pellet that I put into the tank and waited to see if blue water ran into the bowl. (I presume you could do the same with a bit of food coloring.) Sure enough, there was a leak.\nI opened the tank and saw a bunch of silt left from someone's plumbing misadventure a few months ago. I stirred it up and swabbed it from around the flapper then flushed. From the afternoon through until this morning, the water leak diminished after each flush, until it stopped (or at least wasn't audible any more).\nThen someone had another plumbing misadventure today. I got back from lunch, flushed the toilet, and the tank didn't refill. (Worse yet, I couldn't wash my hands.) Hey, where did the water go? None of my neighbors was home, so maybe the city crew who has torn up the street and been installing new water and sewer pipes (for nearly five months so far) shut it off (without warning, naturally).\nThe water has since been turned back on (I had used hand sanitizer before, but I feel much better having been able to wash my hands), and the trickling has returned. I'll just shut the water off at the wall and see what I can do when I visit again.\nHonestly, I had fixed it, until someone else broke it again.\nJust as I thought: it wasn't my fault.\nSo after leaving two voice mails at the corporate office that the HR lackey suggested might be able to help me with the invisible online paperwork, someone called me back. She was very friendly, and she found a way I could get to the site where the paperwork is supposed to be... But, she couldn't figure out why the link and most attachments didn't show up in the e-mail. As it stands, she said I'd just have to complete all the rest on my first day at work. That's what I planned on doing anyway, but it's nice that I could tell the HR lackey that someone else said so.\nAll this doesn't change the increasingly obvious fact that technology hates me.\nMaybe Yule Be Able to Explain It\nMy last dream before waking up this morning was of one of my brothers decorating the house where we grew up for Christmas (except it had the front door from my mom's current house).\nThat's odd; I usually don't start thinking of Christmas until at least July.\nOr am I reading too deeply into this?\nI've pretty much decided on a particular chain of extended-stay hotel to house me until I find an apartment in Tulsa and have my stuff shipped from the Noog. Since the only size of bed it contains is full size, you can assume correctly that my deciding factor was the lowest price. (I figure I can put up with sleeping diagonally for a month or two in the name of saving money, especially since I was in a twin size bed in the Noog for a year.) The place offers a two-burner cooktop, refrigerator, microwave, and table with two chairs. There is an on-site laundry. There is in-room cable TV. Maid service is provided every two weeks. If I want more frequent maid service or to change linens, there is an additional charge. If I didn't have my own tableware with me, I could rent a set (and a coffee maker). The only add-on I'm interested is the internet access.\nI started pondering what wasn't mentioned. The room will include a dresser and nightstand, but it doesn't say if there's a closet or not. Since this isn't a typical hotel room, maybe it's not safe to assume there's a closet? What about a bathroom? There's a nice picture of the on-site laundry room, but where will I be able to relieve myself, shower, or brush my teeth? The website pics show the kitchen area (it looks like there's a sink there) and the TV (sitting on what I assume is the dresser). Those two pics show one wall of the room. I presume that the other wall has the bed and the (I hope) closet and bathroom. (Besides my tableware, I have a set of my own towels with me.)\nOh, and the FAQ says that they provide the \"first roll of bathroom tissue\". Maybe that's why it's the cheapest extended-stay hotel around.\nI read a children's book about the 50 states, and I noted on some pages the mention of mountain elevations. The thing is that they didn't specify if the elevation is above sea level or above the surrounding land. For example, Mt. Everest is the mountain with the highest elevation above sea level, but Mt. Kilimanjaro requires a higher climb from the land beneath it. Is a 15,000 foot mountain quite so impressive or tall if you're already at 6,000 feet looking at it? Isn't it just a 9,000 foot mountain then?\nJust give me instructions. That's all that I ask.\nEven though I'm a technophobe, I can use computers. (See? I'm doing it right now!) So, when the company sends me e-mails to complete forms online before I start my job, I should be able to do that, right?\nI should be able to click on \"this link\" in the e-mail -- except that there's no hypertext associated with it, to open a link if I click on it.\nOkay, so I reply to the second e-mail (the one saying she added more forms at that link) and say that the second e-mail doesn't contain the link, either, and can she just type it so I can copy and paste it into the URL bar.\nShe did so, and I completed the W-4 form there. No other forms appeared, and there were no menu choices for finding forms to complete online.\nShe also asked if I had tried clicking on the link at the bottom of the e-mail. I replied to confirm that I completed the W-4, noted that I didn't find any other forms to complete, asked if there's supposed to be a separate link for each form, and pointed out that her very same e-mail instructed me to \"disregard the following links\", so I did.\nThis all stems from my Myers-Briggs Personality Type. I took the test when I was 13 and scored I-N-T-J (with a borderline N). I took the test again when I was 23 and scored I-S-T-J (with a borderline S). The results indicate that I am not good at intuiting nor at sensing. In other words, tell me what you want me to do. I will not be able to guess what you want, and experience shows that too many other people don't think logically, so I won't be able to proceed as if I think the same way you do (or, indeed, that I think the way you think I do). If you want me to click on a link, I'll do it (as long as the link is there), but if you want me to guess how to find other forms not evident from that link, or if you want me to guess if the instruction to ignore links is false, you'll be waiting for a while.\nI thought I was being hired for a \"grounds\" position?\nCall it morbid curiosity, but I looked to see how many jobs I had applied for. Including the applications I sent after I began the interview process with the company that hired me, there were 49 total. Considering that the vast majority of them never notified me about the resolution of the position (even those that confirmed they had received my application), I don't feel the need to let all of them know that I'm off the market.\nAre there no jails? No workhouses?\nI went to the maul yesterday with my mom. I figured it would be safe from crowds, it being a weekday morning and all. The crowds were absent, but I was surprised how many school-age children I saw there, some of them with their parents. I felt like writing a letter to the editor of the newspaper, suggesting that truant officers (if there are any, any more) go to the maul with a Black Maria and fill it up (or, indeed, more than one).\nI found out on the news last night that the schools are on spring break this week. Sigh. I'm not even allowed to get up a good head of righteous indignation any more.\nI have obtained a job!\nI will be working for my former employer (in a different division and region) in Tulsa, OK. My start date is to be April 8.\nThe salary will be less than I made previously, but it's more than the posted rate was. (I think the recruiter persuaded them to bump it up a bit.) I think I should be able to cover all my expenses, even the rent and utilities that I expect to be higher than I had in the Noog.\nHmm, I wonder if I can come up with a nifty nickname for Tulsa?\nI coined that phrase several years ago, since \"less is more\" isn't applicable for every situation. I found out how true it is this week, when I went to donate blood.\nI usually give pheresis (a.k.a. apheresis), a process which removes blood from my body, separates it into its component parts (using a machine more-or-less like a centrifuge), and then pumps whatever is unneeded back into my body. Usually, I'm asked for two units of platelets. This week, though, I was told that I wasn't allowed to do that; my iron levels were too high. Too high? I've never heard that before, neither in my own donation history or that from either of my parents.\nThe alternatives were one pint of whole blood or a unit of RBC/P (red blood cells and plasma). I asked, \"Which would help more people?\" (Yes, that's a strong clue to my character right there, if you need one.)\nI hope that, next month, I'll be able to donate normally again, but I'm certainly glad there are alternatives to being turned away outright.",

        "raw_content": "In today\u2019s society, the concept of helping others has only continued to increase in significance. From families displaced by extreme weather to individuals who were evicted from an apartment following a layoff, Americans across the country are in need of basic necessities. If you are interested in helping in some way, check out some of the family-friendly options below.\nGo Through Your Child\u2019s Closet With Them\nWith a new school year just beginning, it is not surprising to learn that many parents purchased new clothes for their children. This provides the perfect opportunity to go through your child\u2019s closet with them to determine what clothes no longer fit. The clothes that you plan on getting rid can be donated to a homeless shelter, or organization that benefit children. This opportunity will not only help you clean out your child\u2019s closet, but is also a great time to teach them the importance of helping others.\nCollect Old or Unused Towels & Pet Toys For Animal Shelters\nFor many children, the idea that they can help animals in shelters is enough to get them excited about chipping in. Take a walk with your children through your neighborhood, and ask neighbors if they have any unused towels or pet toys that they can part with. Once you have collected enough towels and toys, take a trip to the local animal shelter with the kids. They will be able to see the difference they made while getting the chance to visit with the animals.\nHelp Your Child Put Together A Hot Chocolate Stand\nAn option for the colder temperature ahead is to help a child run their own hot chocolate stand for a few hours. The money that is raised by the stand will be donated to a cause of the child\u2019s choice. After helping the children collect money and make the drinks, you can go together to donate. Like the trip to the animal shelter, your children will be able to see the positive impact that their work has on those who need assistance. In doing so, your children can become more aware of the significance of their efforts.\nThese are only a couple options for parents to try to help get their children involved in helping others. They will not only learn more about the importance of charity, but they will see what their impact is. Additionally, introducing them to philanthropy early on can help them understand its significance, which in turn can encourage positive actions in the future.",

        "raw_content": "Harlan: Slow down and focus on the details\nJune 30, 2012|By Jeffrey Harlan\nIn Poor Richard's Almanack, Benjamin Franklin popularized the idiom we love to quote but have a difficult time applying to our daily lives: Haste makes waste.\nAs children, we frequently heard this admonition from parents and teachers. Take your time, do it right the first time. With math teachers, in particular, it was often followed by another directive: Show your work.\nBut we are busy people, and it's rare to focus on one task at a time. One of my friends lamented recently that, with a full schedule of work, tending to three children and trying to keep her home livable (let alone clean), she has a hard time just \"being in the moment.\"\nNot surprisingly, there are formal movements aimed at helping us slow down and being more present in our lives. Slow food, slow eating, the slow home, even the slow city. The common idea is to act thoughtfully and deliberately. Do things carefully, do them right and enjoy them.\nGovernance is a slow process. We have rules and procedures to ensure that the public has a voice in the process and that our leaders act fairly and rationally. Of course, in some instances the criticism that government moves too slowly is warranted.\nBut when considering drastic changes to city operations or proposing an unprecedented approach to managing public assets, the need for thoughtful deliberation, community support and measured action is paramount.\nConsider the Costa Mesa City Council majority's botched outsourcing scheme, the fast-tracked charter proposal and the proposed privatization of the TeWinkle Park athletic complex.\nRegardless of whether outsourcing city jobs was the right policy choice for Costa Mesa, the council decided to take action before it conducted its due diligence.\nAn initiative of this scale and complexity required the utmost attention to detail. Had the council recognized that, it would have discovered its own policy about the procedure for outsourcing, and followed the then-city attorney's advice. This was not a mere technicality to be ignored; ultimately, it may prove to be the scheme's fatal flaw.\nThe result of this carelessness is a hefty (and growing) legal bill for litigation that could have been avoided. By the city's accounting, we've spent more than $800,000 through this April.\nHarlan: Council meeting surprises with two good decisions\nAccepting the challenges of politics",

        "raw_content": "As the warmer weather approaches, we look forward to another season of camping and enjoying the fun, relaxation, and beauty that the outdoor environment has to offer. I am anxious to get out on weekends to some of my favorite campsites around Kentucky and Indiana. Of course I'll have plenty of fishing gear to bring along in case some of my family or friends join in on the adventures that are sure to come with each outing. This is the most enjoyable thing for me when I see others having a great time hiking, fishing, throwing Frisbees?, or sitting around the campfire telling stories or singing campfire songs.\nThere are several things I try to consider before I begin packing for a camping trip. First of course, is how long will I be gone? How much time do I have to get away from the \"9 to 5\", unwind and get refreshed by the fresh air, sunshine, and peaceful scenery that nature provides so abundantly? This summer, I'm going to try to get out more frequently on the weekends so I'll talk a little about short outings that are not too distant from home. This will allow me more time for what I actually want to do, and that of course, is to camp. I don't want to spend 5 hours going and 5 hours coming, using basically a whole day just for traveling. If I pick a place that's within a 100 mile radius, I should be able to find several dozen places to visit and spend less than 4 hours of total travel time.\nOk, that sound great, I can think of a dozen places within 100 miles right of the top of my head. Lake Monroe, where my youngest son and I visited last year, is only 1 hour and 45 minutes from my home. That was a great weekend camping trip and my daughter and her friends at IU came from Bloomington to join in the fun. Several of the girls had not fished much at all, and I had more fun than they did watching them scream and holler as we caught over 70 bluegill. It was a great thrill for them to actually catch, clean, and eat fresh fish. Most of the panfish were a little on the small side, but I had them keep them for several reasons. One of course, is the fish sometimes swallow the hook and it's nearly impossible to throw them back when this happens. Another reason I sometimes keep small bluegill, is that it helps other aquatic life to have more abundant food sources. Anyway, after we cleaned them all, they were absolutely delicious dipped in a bowl of egg and milk, rolled in cracker crumbs and cornmeal, and fried to a golden brown. And of course we had several bags to take home, which seemed like it made the camping trip last longer than just the weekend.\nBut let's get back to some of the essentials of planning your weekend camping trip. After you've decided on how much time you have, you will need to consider how many nature lovers are going camping. That's usually the easy part. So if you've got 5 people going, and you're going to be gone for two nights and two days, you'll want to figure how many meals that will be. I'd say it will be in the neighborhood of 2 dinners, 2 breakfast, and 2 lunches, not including snack times. So we'll need enough food for 10 people (5 x 2) for essentially one day. That should calculate to an average of 8-10 ounces of meat per person, 8-10 ounces of vegetables and fruit per person, and 8-10 servings of bread or grains per two persons. You can also use the 8-10 rule for your drinks for a total of 8-10, (8-10 oz. drinks) including water, per person per day. This may seem like a lot of liquid, but when you consider 3 meals a day and an additional drink in between, you are already at 6 drinks a day. Remember, dehydration is a major cause of heat stroke. If you're going hiking, swimming, or playing any type of running sport, this will easily bring the drink count up an additional 3 or more for a total of 9 drinks a day. Let's make an easy formula to go by.\nFOO D QUANTITY FORMULA\n5 people for 2 days = (5 x 2 = 10)\n10 x 8-10 ounces = (80-100 ounces meat) or 5-6\u00bc lbs.\n10 x 8-10 ounces = (80-100 ounces fruits and veggies) or 5-6\u00bc lbs.\n8-10 servings bread or grain per (2) persons\n8-10 (8-10 oz. drinks) per person (per day)\nNOTE: Hard cheeses such as American and Swiss include in meat weight.\nSoft cheeses such as cultures add to fruits and vegetables weight.\nEggs may be separate.\nSo that's a pretty good rule of thumb to go by for your \"3 squares.\" If you like to snack, which goes great with camping, bring along your chips, marshmallows, or no bake cookies and you'll never go hungry. Don't forget the milk if your bring chocolate.\nArticle written by Keith Kampschaefer. Keith is President of CHK Marketing, LLC, which owns and operates http://www.PackNCamp.com Outdoor Supply.

        "title": "Art Threat | An open letter to Prime Minister Harper and Minister Verner",
        "raw_content": "An open letter to Prime Minister Harper and Minister Verner\n0 Posted by Ezra Winton - March 4, 2008 - Blog, Policy, Screen\nPolicing Cinema\nAn open letter from educator and former Film Studies Association of Canada president Michael Zyrd, regarding Ottawa\u2019s proposed censorship bill:\nDear Honourable Prime Minister Harper, and Honourable Minister Verner,\nI write with extreme concern about the proposed Bill C-10, and the ways that it would enable de facto government censorship of film and television.\nAccording to a story in the Globe and Mail:\n\u201cBill C-10, currently at third reading in the Senate, contains an amendment to the Income Tax Act which would allow the Minister of Canadian Heritage to deny eligibility to tax credits of productions determined to be contrary to public policy,\u201d Charles Drouin, spokesman for Canadian Heritage said in a statement. \u201c\u2026 Upon royal assent of C-10, the Department of Canadian Heritage plans to update the eligibility requirements for the [Canadian Film or Video Production Tax Credit] program.\u201d\nAs an educator and researcher of artists film and video, I know that artistic freedom and the free play of ideas\u2013including those deemed \u201ccontrary to public policy\u201d\u2013are vital to a vibrant democracy. Although the balance between free expression and the public good is, and has been, a point of contention in all democracies, experience has shown that attempts at \u201ccontent control\u201d by governments rarely work\u2013or they create the unacceptable conditions we are familiar with in dictatorships.\nOn one level, Bill C-10 is not overt censorship as it merely proposes to add another set of criteria to judge applications for public funding. However, as a scholar of film history, I can see a very clear precedent in the proposed mechanism for this policy. The review by a panel set up by CAVCO, the Canadian Audio-Visual Certification Office, seems very similar to how the notorious Production Code Administration was run in the United States from the late 1920s until it was overturned in the late 1950s. The PCA was set up by Hollywood to avoid overt state censorship, but had the effect of stifling creative expression in Hollywood and dumbing down filmmaking in name of controlling \u201ccontent\u201d. The PCA rightly earned the ridicule of both the film industry and the public, and this provision in Bill C-10 deserves the same shame. Finally, if the subsequent report in the Globe and Mail that lobbying by an evangelical minister was a factor in this provision in the Bill, the parallel with the PCA is complete, as it was sparked by pressure from the National Legion of Decency in the 1920s. Narrow religious dogma has no place in state policy.\nThat such a provision should be introduced when Canadian feature film production has achieved international recognition\u2013in part because of relatively strong arms-length government funding\u2013is puzzling. I thought that conservative governments preferred not to interfere in the organic functioning of industries. But this Bill, and the negative publicity that it is generating, will embarrass Canadian film in the eyes of international filmmakers, and put a chill on both filmic expression and international investment.\nI must also say that, as a voter, this legislation does nothing to contradict the popular perception that this Tory administration is a top-down government that is attempting to legislate public morality and interfere unnecessarily with people\u2019s freedoms.\n(Image: book cover of \u201cPolicing Cinema\u201d)\nC-10CAVCOcensorshipMichael Zrydpolicing cinemaStephen Harper\n\u00ab Previous PostStephen Harper should cut his hair, not film board funding Next Post \u00bbBill C-10 will protect Canadians from funding Porn.

In particular, it removes the requirement for private parties to seek Ministerial consent when bringing an action for a breach that takes place overseas.\nKey competition law amendment\nThe Explanatory Memorandum was circulated by authority of Minister for Small Business, Hon Bruce Billson MP.\nThe Hon Bruce Billson MP's second reading speech was published in Hansard on 18 March 2015 (pages 8-11). It relevantly includes the following:\nAnother key reform is set out in part 2 of the schedule. This amendment removes the requirement for litigants to seek my agreement to bring an action for a breach of the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 that takes place overseas. This requirement was inserted into the act in 1986 due to concerns that the extraterritorial application of the act may impinge on the laws or policies of the country where the breach took place. This is not such a concern today.\nSimilar requirements to the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 now exist in most countries. These have a significant degree of uniformity in the general types of conduct they prohibit, with even further convergence likely in the future. Reflecting this, the government is not aware of any request for ministerial consent having ever been refused.\nOn the other hand, this requirement imposes a significant barrier on parties seeking private action to enforce their rights under the law. For example, the government has received feedback that this requirement could delay the course of proceedings, as the requirement for ministerial consent may not marry with the time frames of courts for filing statements of claim or defence.\nThe current procedure also requires applicants to provide advice on the laws of the country in which the alleged conduct took place to assist the government to assess their application. We have received advice that this may cost around $30,000 on average, and some applicants have also been required to obtain such advice from several jurisdictions, further exacerbating these costs.\nAnd in relation to s 155\nPart 9 permits the ACCC to seek a court order directing a person to comply with a notice given under section 155 of the Competition and Consumer Act 2010. This further strengthens its ability to obtain the necessary evidence to properly investigate allegations of a breach of the law.\nStatus: Bill\nIntroduced: 18 March 2015\nSecond reading: 18 March 2014\nReferred to Committee: 25 March 2015\nSubmissions close: 21 April 2015\nReport: 13 May 2015\n(recommended passage)\nBill lapsed: 15 April 2016\n(lapsed at prorogation)\nBill homepage (Parl)\nBill homepage (ComLaw)\nKey amendment proposed",

        "raw_content": "What It Takes to Create a Successful Business\nWhen creating a successful business there are a few things you need to think about and understand in order to have the most success. Creating a successful business takes a lot of time and effort, but when done right it can make you a lot of money very quickly. The great thing about business is you have many different options in getting one started and a whole lot of options once it is up and running. The first and most important that goes into creating a successful business is planning. When it comes to a business plan there is nothing that should be left out. When your business plan is finished it should be so well written that a person off the street could pick up the plan and could set up the business, start the marketing, buy any products or equipment that is needed, have all the financing in place, know who is the target market, where to find customers, and what the projected revenue is for the first 6 months. As you can see a plan will give every little detail about the business that way you know exactly what to do and when to do it.\nWhat most businesses never do is experiment with their methods. That means marketing, services, customer service, and every other aspect of the business. The entire point of experimenting is to try to find any methods that can be improved so your business can make more money and be more efficient. Most business owners don\u2019t do this because they are afraid they could mess something up and actually lose money, but what if you gained money? Don\u2019t think of experimenting as a way to mess things up, think of it as a method to find a better way to make money.\nThe biggest problem with starting a successful business isn\u2019t that the business itself is a bad idea, but the owner running it is putting too much pressure on the business to perform well. The one thing that has always worked well in business is taking the long term approach. Taking a long term approach is good for business because it means you are letting the market determine the size of the business and not just looking at the money. Taking a long term approach means you will use cash to build your business instead of credit and because of that you don\u2019t have to make as much money as a business in order to stay open.

        "raw_content": "B-Metro > Glamour > Happy Birthday to Us!\nMe and my Gemini Selves\nYes! I\u2019d LOVE to meet you for brunch next Tuesday morning at 9:30! I\u2019m SO excited! I can. Not. Wait. (Fast forward to Monday night\u2026) Oh, no\u2026do I HAVE to get up and get ready in the morning to go to brunch? In the rain? On this beautiful day? In the cold? In this heat? In this (fill-in-the-blank______)? What was I thinking? Welcome to life as a Gemini.\nI am a true Gemini with a totally opposite twin and it\u2019s a constant battle of the wills. When I get invited to a party or some kind of gathering, outgoing me is all excited and can\u2019t wait to go. But, inevitably, as soon as the time comes my boring twin shows up and getting ready and all dressed up is the last thing I want to do. After all, the sofa is so comfy and I\u2019m all cozy under the blanket. Do I have to? Can I make myself get up, get dressed and go?\nPart of me is all about dressing up and going out. I love the perfume, the glamour, the shoes\u2026 The other side is all about jeans, flats, and staying home and playing Scrabble. How, then, to celebrate successfully making another sunny trip around the sun? By getting all glammed up to go out and party the night away at the Marble Ring, or stay home and try to forget about it by hiding under the covers in bed? Just another day/night in the life of a Gemini Twin.\nI\u2019m constantly trying to find the balance. My \u201cstay-at-home and watch a Nancy Meyers movie marathon\u201d personality gets exhausted if my sunny self is out shining at all hours of the day and night. Then again, my fun side gets very upset if I am living life as a hermit for longer than a week. I mean, I get it, kind of. I guess it can get monotonous watching the same movies so often that you can repeat all the lines, and I mean every characters\u2019 lines, in every NM movie. Basically, I think I am an introvert with an extrovert Gemini twin.\nOne side of me wants to party, the other side wants to stay home. The Fun twin wants to have her cake and eat it, too. The Practical twin wants to have no regrets the next day. Basically, it comes down to the fact that \u201cSunny\u201d wants to smoke, and \u201cLA\u201d won\u2019t let her. Which one is the evil twin?\nBeing a true Gemini is like having a sibling you can always count on to argue with you. Or, like having that one friend who is always pointing out the negative things that could all go wrong. Or, on the other hand, why you would feel so much better if you got up early and went to Zumba instead of sleeping in until noon on Saturday. Of course I want to catch up with friends at parties and brunch, but, at the same time, I need some time alone to recharge. The problem is that sometimes I want these two different experiences at the same time! And, at any given time, they\u2019re both right.\nThe truth is that I live most of my days as \u201cLA\u201d and \u201cSunny\u201d only comes out in photographs and shines on stage. I think this year I\u2019m going to let her shine a little brighter a little more often. Maybe I\u2019ll even wear \u201cSunny\u2019s\u201d evening clothes and pretty lounge wear when it\u2019s just a Monday night at home, instead of my usual black yoga pants. I think my husband might enjoy getting to spend a little more time with \u201cSunny.\u201d On the other hand, he is a Gemini, too! So, you never know who ends up with who!!\nI think completing another year long journey around the sun is something to celebrate so I\u2019ve got to figure out how to mark the occasion pretty fast since the day is almost here. It seems about the only thing the two sides of my personality agree on is that they both like Gin and Tonics \u2013 with lots of fresh squeezed lime. That sounds good whether it\u2019s toasting the night away at a glamorous location or at home on the patio sitting under the stars. So, happy birthday to us and cheers to that, wherever we end up!\nAre you a true Gemini, too? Any of you have to fight with your \u201cother half\u201d? Are we crazy? Please discuss. \u2022",

        "raw_content": "145: A TIME OF WORLD UPHEAVAL\n\"finding yourself on the wrong way on a freeway during rush hour\"\nWe live in times when the world is in great upheaval. This has always been the case whenever there is a transition from one dispensation to another. Not only is there always great wickedness amongst the people, it is also accompanied with climatic earthly destructions.\nWe are not the only ones who have and will experience this. Past dispensational heads like Noah and Abraham also lived in times little short of an earthly hell.\nBelow are some excerpts from the writing of Nibley that I wanted to share. I have a new found respect for his work and the things he wrote.\n\"If we fancy Noah riding the sunny seas high, dry, and snug in the ark, we have not read the record\u2014the long, hopeless struggle against entrenched mass resistance to his preaching, the deepening gloom and desperation of the years leading up to the final debacle, then the unleashed forces of nature with the family absolutely terrified, weeping and praying \"because they were at the gates of death,\" as the ark was thrown about with the greatest violence by terrible winds and titanic seas.\"\n\"Noah went forth into a world of utter desolation, as Adam did, to build his altar, call upon God, and try to make a go of it all over again, only to see some of his progeny on short order prefer Satan to God and lose all the rewards that his toil and sufferings had put in their reach.\"\nIn Abraham's day, men had perverted the order of life, so God altered the order of nature. The problems he had to face were forced upon him largely by the evil times in which he lived.\nThere is a definite correlation between the behavior of man and the behavior of nature. The universe is so organized, according to this, that when man revolts against God's plan of operations, to which all other creatures conform, he finds himself in the position of one going the wrong way on a freeway during rush hour: the very stars in their course fight against him.\nAs it was in the days of Noah, so in the days of Abraham, a very old Christian writing explains, the world was ripe for destruction, according to the principle that whenever men fall away completely from God, destruction must follow.\nIn desperation, men turned to worshiping idols.\nThe sophisticated people of Abraham's time wanted the sanction of holy beings which at the same time were one hundred percent compliant with their own interests and desires, just as people today search out those scriptures which support their interests and push the rest aside.\nThere were displays of astonishing luxury and sophistication, the style being Babylonian rather than Egyptian, and apparently already in a state of decadence just before its destruction by an earthquake.\nIt is not surprising that \"the men of Sodom were the wealthy men of prosperity, on account of the good and fruitful land whereon they dwelt. The people of Sodom and Gomorrah were not condemned for their ignorance of the God of Abraham but rather for their greed; they were destroyed because they did not strengthen the hand of the poor and heeded not the needy.\nFor them everything existed for the sole purpose of being turned into cash. One cannot help thinking of the church builders in Mormon 8:37 and 39, who adorn themselves \"with that which hath no life\" while calmly ignoring the needs of the living.\nThat this emphasis on wealth and status was the real wickedness of Sodom and Gomorrah is attested by both the Bible and the Pearl of Great Price.\nExcerpts from Hugh Nibley's \"The World of Abraham\".",

        "raw_content": "The Standard For, and New Guidelines to Govern, Securing Non-Party Discovery \u00bb\nWhoever coined the phrase \u201cpartners are only good for square dancing\u201d must have been a defendant in a breach of fiduciary duty claim. One can understand some of the cynicism, as the fiduciary duty imposed upon directors and officers has been described as a \u201cstringent,\u201d \u201cundivided and undiluted loyalty,\u201d an \u201cinflexible rule of fidelity\u201d (Birnbaum v Birnbaum, 73 N.Y.2d 461, 466 (1989)) which is enforced with \u201cuncompromising rigidity\u201d (Meinhard v Salmon, 249 N.Y. 458, 464 (1928)).\nOne aspect of the duty owed is an obligation not to \u201cdivert and exploit for [his or her] own benefit any opportunity that should be deemed an asset of the corporation\u201d (Commodities Research Unit [Holdings] v Chemical Week Assoc., 174 A.D.2d 476, 477, 571 N.Y.S.2d 253 (1st Dep\u2019t 1991); see Owen v Hamilton, 44 A.D.3d 452, 457 (n 3), 843 N.Y.S.2d 298 (1st Dep\u2019t 2007); Pangia & Co., CPAs v Diker, 291 A.D.2d 539, 540, 741 N.Y.S.2d 242 (2nd Dep\u2019t 2002).\nFurthermore, directors and officers of corporations, in the performance of their duties, stand in a fiduciary relationship to their corporation []. As such, they owe the corporation their undivided loyalty and \u201cmay not assume and engage in the promotion of personal interests which are incompatible with the superior interests of their corporation\u201d\nInasmuch as there may be a natural tendency to analyze the future without a partner, as with any relationship, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, and it is best to confirm that the prior relationship has been properly resolved before proceeding with the next venture. Failure to do so may get very expensive.\nFor example, in A.G. Homes, LLC v Gerstein, 52 A.D.3d 546, 860 N.Y.S.2d 582 (2nd Dep\u2019t 2008) Plaintiff and Defendant entered into a joint venture (AG Homes) for the purpose of purchasing real property, and AG Homes purchased 521 DeKalb Avenue in Brooklyn. Plaintiff and AG Homes allege that in order to obtain more favorable financing, the deed to the property was transferred to the Defendant, who promised to re-convey the property to AG Homes. However, the plaintiffs allege that the defendant refused to re-convey the property after obtaining financing. The plaintiffs sought the imposition of a constructive trust on 521 DeKalb.\nDefendant\u2019s answer asserted a counterclaim to impose a constructive trust, to the extent of a 50% ownership interest, on another piece of property known as 513 DeKalb Avenue. The defendant alleged that plaintiff Azaria purchased that parcel without his knowledge after initially expressing a lack of interest in it. The Second Department reversed that aspect of the Supreme Court Order which denied defendant\u2019s motion for summary judgment on his counterclaim to impose a constructive trust on 513 DeKalb, observing:\nAzaria and the defendant, as parties to the joint venture in AG Homes, owed each other a duty of undivided loyalty (see Meinhard v Salmon, 249 NY 458 [1928]). The defendant demonstrated that in May 2004 he and Azaria were approached by Sixto De Los Santos with an offer to purchase 513 DeKalb. The defendant wished to go through with the transaction, but Azaria was not interested because he did not believe it would be a good deal. Approximately one month later, on June 24, 2004, a contract of sale for 513 DeKalb was entered into between Victor Aloyo, as seller, and AG Homes and Sixto De Los Santos, as purchasers. On that very same day, Sixto De Los Santos assigned his rights under the contract of sale to Azaria for an agreed fee of $30,000, and AG Homes assigned its interest in the property to Azaria for $10. The assignments were made without the defendant\u2019s knowledge and resulted in Azaria obtaining 100% of the property\u2019s title.\nThe record demonstrates, prima facie, that at the time Azaria entered into the contract of sale for 513 DeKalb, he owed a fiduciary duty to the defendant and breached it by concealing his dealings and failing to disclose pertinent information to the defendant.\nThe Court rejected Azaria\u2019s argument that no fiduciary duty was owed as a result of his claimed dissolution of the partnership because AG Homes was not properly dissolved and was still an operational entity at the time (noting that AG Homes had contracted to purchase 513 DeKalb and executed a written assignment of its interest in the property to Azaria in exchange for consideration of $10).\nAccordingly, the Second Department observed Defendant was entitled to a constructive trust to the extent of a 50% ownership interest in 513 DeKalb subject to \u201cexpenses incurred by Azaria toward the purchase price of the property, losses potentially incurred by him since the purchase, the cost of the property\u2019s maintenance and upkeep by him, and any other relevant deductions\u201d.\nMore recently, the Second Department confirmed the potential for proportionate liability in a usurped opportunity equal to a prior vested interest in Volodarsky v Moonlight Ambulette Serv., Inc., 122 A.D.3d 619, 996 N.Y.S.2d 121 (2nd Dep\u2019t 2014). There, Plaintiff (who held a 29.5% interest in Defendant Moonlight Ambulette Services) commenced an action \u201calleging that the other owners of Moonlight wrongfully wound down the corporation and formed other corporations to conduct Moonlight\u2019s business so as to deprive him of his ownership interest.\u201d Plaintiff sought to impose a constructive trust on 29.5% of the shares of certain defendant corporations for the benefit of the plaintiff individually. On appeal, the Second Department affirmed that aspect of Defendant\u2019s cross motion seeking summary judgment dismissing the cause of action to impose a constructive trust on 29.5% of the shares of certain defendant corporations for the benefit of the plaintiff individually \u2013 the same percentage of interest that the Plaintiff possessed in the parties\u2019 prior relationship. See also Young v. Chiu, 49 A.D.3d 535, 853 N.Y.S.2d 575 (2nd Dep\u2019t 2008):\nHere, the defendant Cathy Chiu diverted a corporate opportunity in breach of her fiduciary duty as an officer of YNC Ltd., and CNY Ltd., by secretly establishing a competing entity and acquiring the property at issue in action No. 2, in which YNC Ltd., and CNY Ltd., had a \u201ctangible expectancy\u201d (Adirondack Capital Mgt., Inc. v Ruberti, Girvin & Ferlazzo, P.C., 43 AD3d 1211, 1215 [2007], lv denied 9 NY3d 817 [2008]; see American Baptist Churches of Metro. N.Y. v Galloway, 271 AD2d 92, 99 [2000]). Accordingly, the court properly directed the transfer of 50% of the property at issue in action No. 2 to the plaintiff, a 50% shareholder in both YNC Ltd., and CNY Ltd. [emphasis added].\nWhen the music stops and the square dance is complete, a usurped corporate opportunity may result in an award, to the jilted partner, equal to his or her proportionate interest in the prior entity.\nOctober 13th, 2016 | Tags: Attorney, long island commercial attorney, new york lawyer | Category: Publications, The Suffolk Lawyer",

In her second book of Doing Germany Agnieska Paletta shows how to handle a baby, a house and a husband in Germany when one still has lots of questions why Germans actually are the way they are.\nWhen I first got the book I expected it to be a funny view on German habits. Being German myself I always enjoy and also reflect on those things I don\u2019t realise I\u2019m doing.\nThat is exactly what you get. In some cases I couldn\u2019t relate to them as I don\u2019t have a baby, a house or a husband. But it doesn\u2019t make the book less worth reading.\nWhat I enjoyed most about this about this book is the fact that in there not only the situation in Germany is shown but also how a similar situation would be in Poland, Canada or the US. That way not only Non-Germans can learn about Germany but also Germans can learn how a situation is handled in other countries.\nThe idea to this book is something that I like. It\u2019s not a new idea but I like to read books about how people see their life in Germany.\nThe writing style is good once you get used to it and I got used to it pretty quickly.\nAll in all it\u2019s a great book that is fun to read. 3 of 5 points.\nQuelle: http://coverworlds.de/doing-germany-two",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Catalog \u00bb BASTARDS (Les salauds) (review)\nBASTARDS (Les salauds) (review)\nBASTARDS (Les salauds)\nWritten by Jean-Pol Fargeau and Claire Denis\nStarring Vincent Lindon, Chiara Mastoianni and Michel Subor\nClaire Denis\u2019 new film BASTARDS is a brilliant rollercoaster ride that is undeniably her darkest film yet. The film is extremely puzzling and may require two viewings from some filmgoers to fully grasp its complex plot; once fully absorbed though, it is a truly rewarding film. The film is painfully dark from beginning to end; its dreary tone is sure to resonate with viewers days after seeing the film. It is not only memorable because of its plot and visuals, but also due to its haunting techno score by frequent Denis collaborators, English band, Tindersticks.\nThe film opens with a downpour on the streets of Paris. A man paces around an office, about to jump to his death. A young woman walks down a street, completely nude, safe for her high heels; she has blood between her legs. A month later Marco (Vincent Lindon, who is featured in Denis\u2019 Friday Night), moves into the same building as Edouard Laporte (frequent Denis collaborator Michel Subor), the man who may be responsible for his brother-in-law\u2019s suicide. Marco crafts a plan to take revenge on Laporte, the first step of which involves him beginning a torrid affair with Laporte\u2019s younger girlfriend Raphaelle (Chiara Mastroianni, daughter of Catherine Deneuve and Marcello Mastroianni, in a stellar turn). Through this journey, Marco learns about himself, and unearths disturbing facts about the relationship his brother-in-law shared with Laporte. To say anything more of the film\u2019s plot would be to tarnish Denis\u2019 intricately woven puzzle.\nBesides Lindon and Subor, the film features many actors who have previously worked with Denis, including Alex Descas, Gr\u00e9goire Colin, Florence Loiret Caille, and Nicole Dogu\u00e9. The acting from all involved is strong, but Lindon\u2019s performance stands out the most. Lindon\u2019s Marco is an extremely believable character. Though his intentions may not be in the right place, the audience will still root for him against the villainous, Laporte. Denis puts the audience in Marco\u2019s shoes; we are kept in the dark the same way his character is. She reveals things to the audience as they are revealed to Marco, treating us as equals.\nAnd the returning players don\u2019t stop there. BASTARDS is wonderfully shot by Denis\u2019 go-to cinematographer, Agn\u00e8s Godard. Godard, who usually paints Denis\u2019 films with beauty, chooses in this film to paint it with malice. Darkness is found in many of the shots, as it is in the entirety of the film.\nSome people will take issue with the fact that Bastards can be slightly hard to follow. Denis does not spoon-feed her audience and makes them do the necessary work to understand the brilliance of her film. BASTARDS is a very demanding film that requires viewers\u2019 full attention for its short running time. Go to the washroom once and you can miss an extremely important detail of the film.\nBASTARDS is another example of why Denis is one of the greatest directors working today. With this film, she is absolutely fearless with her intimate style and subject matter. Like many of Denis\u2019 films, this one is both extremely erotic and dreamlike; but this film is a much different kind of dream than her other films; BASTARDS is an undeniable nightmare.\nOne thing can be said for sure about BASTARDS is that after seeing it, you will never ever look at corn on the cob the same way again. Trust me.\nHighlights from the BASTARDS Q&A with Claire Denis.\n\u201cIt\u2019s not my most funny film,\u201d Claire Denis warns the audience while introducing her newest film, BASTARDS (or \u201cThe Bastard\u201d as she calls it herself) at a special screening as part of the \u201cObjects of Desire \u2013 The Films of Claire Denis\u201d series, currently running at TIFF Bell Lightbox. This is an understatement. Denis knows, just as much as anyone who has seen it knows, that BASTARDS is one of Denis\u2019 darkest, and most daring works. She makes a quick joke about TIFF sponsor L\u2019Oreal before exiting the theatre, obviously not looking forward to the Q&A to follow. This is a resume of that Q&A.\nIt is strange to think that Denis didn\u2019t initially realize what a dark and heavy film she had made. She says, \u201cI was told by Stuart who composed the music, from Tindersticks, \u2018This one is really hard.\u2019 And I said \u2018Ah, really? You think this one is harder than the others?\u2019 I believe him so much that only through him I understood [how dark the film was].\u201d\nOne of the most difficult things about BASTARDS is its closing scene. Denis leaves little to the imagination when she finally shows the footage recorded in what I\u2019ll call the \u2018sex barn\u2019. One audience member, even though she insists that she thought it was necessary herself, asks if Denis ever considered cutting it out. \u201cSomeone from the selection committee at the Cannes Film Festival says \u2018Claire, really, can you consider cutting the video footage at the end?\u2019 and I was so amazed\u2026it\u2019s the residue, it\u2019s the only thing that is left. No, of course, no. Otherwise there is no film for me..it will be unfair\u201d\nThe audience now realizes that Denis takes a long time answering questions. Only two questions have been asked and already almost fifteen minutes had passed, so everyone in the cinema hopes that the next questions are strong, and that the answers may shed a new light on the film.\nOne man asks about Denis\u2019 influence by William Faulkner in regards to making this film. \u201cYes, bravo, bravo.\u201d Denis applauds smiling. \u201cThe sweet corn I borrowed from Faulkner. There is always something in Faulkner\u2019s novels that when he starts to take you inside his story, you already know that something inevitable is going to happen. It is the fate\u2026The pride is to know that inevitably you will suffer.\u201d Denis is obviously a great admirer of Faulkner\u2019s work. Denis and the man have a long back-and-fourth over Faulkner\u2019s novels. \u201cI was touched by him as a writer. I had to reread his novels every ten years. He\u2019s such an inspiring writer for film because you don\u2019t have to interpret his novel; you don\u2019t have to translate his novel. He gives you the air your characters are going to breathe.\u201d\nIt is hard to describe Denis\u2019 form during the Q&A. Though it appears that she is happy to be there, she answers and speaks as if she is in pain. \u201cI\u2019m sorry, I feel like I\u2019m in a police office and I have to answer if I\u2019m guilty or not.\u201d Denis jokes, before saying, away from the microphone, \u201cYes, I\u2019m guilty.\u201d\nDenis is then asked about her process for writing films and where she gets her ideas. She answers, \u201cIt\u2019s not sudden, and it\u2019s not a concept\u2026Suddenly something crystallizes, it\u2019s a moment where I can figure out something is possible. It\u2019s the moment for me to describe to myself at least one scene. In this case I remember the first scene I sort of visualized.\u201d Denis describes an important scene of the film featuring Chiara Mastroianni\u2019s Raphaelle and her much older partner, Edouard Laporte. Then she tells an intriguing story of where she first got the idea for the sex barn, which is certainly the most interesting point in the Q&A. \u201cThere was a nightclub in Paris; it\u2019s always closed down, you don\u2019t see a thing. There is a secret door and limousines stop in the night there. One morning in the summer, they open the door and they clean. They put all the furniture outside and completely clean the place. I could see those round red beds, dirty, stained. I saw this nightmarish place with horrible carpeting and I realized that in the daylight you could see everything and probably in the night it is very a sexy place in a way. Sexy for having sex, not sexy in a sense of attracting. It was so disgusting. I was watching the carpeting, the curtains, and the plastic on the red beds. It was not like watching hell; it was like watching a part of humanity so real, so concrete suddenly because it was in the daylight.\u201d\nAfter getting slightly sidetracked, Denis returns to the question at hand. \u201cFor me, if I decide on a concept, then I\u2019m sure it won\u2019t work. It has to be a sort of knitting of elements that together could give the feeling that there is a sort of tune coming.\u201d\nIt was a rewarding experience to hear Denis talk about one of her greatest works. BASTARDS is the type of film that is so brilliant that even the director herself has a hard time explaining it. It is a truly rewarding experience that is different for each person that sees it.\n\u201cObjects of Desire \u2013 The Films of Claire Denis\u201d runs through November 10 at TIFF Bell Lightbox.

        "raw_content": "Home Features Interviews Interview: Jefre Cantu-Ledesma talks about his stunning shoegaze-ish new album On The...\nInterview: Jefre Cantu-Ledesma talks about his stunning shoegaze-ish new album On The Echoing Green\nLast year, Jefre Cantu-Ledesma released In Summer on the excellent small label Geographic North (who also released a couple of my other favorite electronic albums of recent years.) It was my first exposure to the experimental musician, though he has a long history (with San Francisco post-rock genre-pushers Tarentel and Raum, a collaboration with Grouper\u2019s Liz Harris, among other group and solo efforts.)\nIn Summer drew me in and wrapped me up in its dreamy soundscapes. The songs are sometimes lush and sometimes harsh but always beautiful and engaging. They wash over you as slow-changing waveforms with gain, distortion, reverb and delay pulsating in and out. The modulation of the wave is put under a microscope and amplified.\nI was excited to see a new album from Cantu-Ledesma and I was eagerly anticipating more of the same aural and electronic exploration.\nOn The Echoing Green starts that way \u2013 with a harsh and intense looping detuned piano. But that soon fades into a sustained and staticky high-pitched tone that sounds like a kettle going off and, suddenly, our prelude is over. \u2018A Song of Summer\u2019 begins and it\u2019s a very different beast. The waves of distortion are still there but they\u2019re floating over a lovely twinkling synth line with an upbeat rhythm section buried underneath. Then Paula Garcia (of Buenos Aires\u2019 Sobrenadar) begins to sing and all of a sudden, you feel like you\u2019re listening to a lost shoegaze classic of another era.\nOn The Echoing Green is both that and something very different. In collaboration with Garcia, guitarist Byron Westbrook, and others, Jefre Cantu-Ledesma created an album of both intense sonic tapestry and honest-to-goodness rock songs. It never settles into one groove for too long. It refuses to be pigeonholed. Even midway through \u2018A Song of Summer,\u2019 just when you think this might be Cantu-Ledesma\u2019s radio moonshot, the catchy melodies slowly fade, giving way to the static tide. For the rest of the 10 minute run-time, the song builds itself up again from the foundations, bringing you back to that shoegazey guitar line and faded propulsive beat.\nJust when you try to place a genre name on the album, it swerves into a completely different lane. It maintains a consistent and warm reverby glow throughout but goes from ambient to shoegaze to harsh electronic to experimental and back. There are killer guitar solos and minutes-long excursions into deconstructing one sound sequence. Lest you think this is only for the highfalutin and supercilious avant-garde, \u2018The Faun\u2019 ends with some studio talkback left in \u2013 \u201cWoo! We got some shit done\u201d \u2013 before \u2018Tenderness\u2019 returns to the shoegaze feel with Garcia playing Bilinda Butcher to Cantu-Ledesma\u2019s mellowed-out Kevin Shields.\nOn The Echoing Green never sits still long enough for you to pin it down. It defies any label as soon as you try to give it one. It turns on a dime from pretty to abrasive, from chill to intense, from nostalgic to caustically future-forward. As its sensuous beauty precariously balances with the unknown and the downright frightening, this album feels like 2017 itself. But more than just a sign of the times, it feels like yesterday, today and tomorrow collapsed into one layered and stoned fever dream.\nCantu-Ledesma shared some thoughts on his work and the new album via email:\nThe album title comes from a William Blake poem. He describes the \u2018old folk\u2019 watching the innocent and joyful play of the \u2018little ones\u2019 in a park. It\u2019s pretty openly sincere and romantic (in the idyllic and picturesque sense of the word.) Would you say this a romantic record?\nWell, I guess the answer to that question is somewhat subjective. I do have to admit though that I often have themes of love embedded within my songs, and I don\u2019t think this record is different. That being said, I don\u2019t purposefully set out to write a romantic song or records, it just tends to end up that way.\nLike yourself, Blake was a sort of artistic polymath, working as a poet, painter, and printmaker. How do you think your experience as a visual artist or a potter affects your approach to making music?\nI actually don\u2019t see a lot of difference between working on visual art and working on music. For me they are both forms of creative expression. There tends to be overlap in the way I visualize music or the shape of songs and records.\nThe album cover is a beautiful painting \u2013 \u201cAu Pair 2\u201d by Andrea Belag. The grand, graphic brushwork, the flowing lines, the color gradients\u2026 it feels perfectly matched to the sonics of the album. How did you come upon the painting and when in the album-making process did you choose it for the cover?\nMy partner knew Andrea\u2019s work and when she saw the type of paintings I was looking at, she suggested I might like her paintings. I found her website and wrote her immediately as it was pretty late in the process of getting the record turned in. I actually had a different image by a different artist selected, but he pulled out at the last minute and I was in a rush to find something else. In retrospect I think it fits the music a lot better than the first image I chose.\nYou\u2019ve said that you were interested in bringing out the more overt pop elements on this album. What are some of your favorite pop albums and what do you think indie and experimental musicians can learn from the pop songwriting playbook?\nFunny, I\u2019ve gotten this question a couple of times recently! I\u2019m surprised there seems to be an assumption that because of the music I make I may only be listening to harsh noise or long form drone work, which couldn\u2019t be further from the truth. Like every other musician I know I listen to a lot of music, and a good amount of what would be considered \u201cpop\u201d. For this record I was thinking a lot about Eno\u2019s pop records (in particular Another Green World) and a lot of Krautrock records \u2013 Faust, Neu! et al. I was interested in how those records sequenced really catchy overt pop tunes with much more subdued or abstract songs, which is why the second side is a bit more bumpy then the first. I think writing good catchy pop songs is really hard, it\u2019s definitely a craft. I was trying to, not so much be a pop songwriter on this record, but more fit some of it\u2019s elements into my way of working.\nYou\u2019ve used vocals pretty sparingly in your music before this album. What made you choose to include them so prominently on this album? How did your collaboration with Sobrenadar come together?\nI\u2019m not sure I made a decision before hand. It was more like when I did get the vocals and started mixing them into the songs it just didn\u2019t sound right to have them as low in the mix as I usually do. I heard Paula\u2019s music on the FACT website and thought that she might be a good fit. At that point I actually wasn\u2019t sure I wanted vocals on the record, I was more curious to see what would happen. I contacted Paula and she was game to try, so I sent her A Song Of Summer, and she sent the vocals back a few days later. It was all pretty easy and effortless. Once Tenderness was mixed I thought it might also sound nice with vocals so I sent her the track and again she sent me vocals back pretty quickly.\nYou\u2019ve talked before about how you sometimes think of an album visually, with peaks and valleys. How much do you think about the sequencing of an album? What is your approach?\nSequencing is really important to me, I see it as an essential part of finishing the record. I usually think of tracks in terms of side A & side B, with both sides having a maximum running time of around 20min \u2013 which helps me to first get my mind around what will or wont fit on the record. I often will look for the first song on each side, and then I try to move from there. It\u2019s really just a matter of feel once I have the opening tracks. I will often play around with sequencing for a while \u2013 Echoing Green actually went through a few last min changes and edits to tighten it up, something I surprised myself in doing \u2013 I\u2019m usually done and that\u2019s that!\nYou\u2019ve lived and worked in Brooklyn, Berlin, Munich, and San Francisco \u2013 some of the world\u2019s best cities for music. For a performing musician, how do they compare? Do you feel like the personalities and idiosyncrasies of the places you live seep their way into your music?\nWell I actually don\u2019t preform very much anymore, so I can\u2019t speak with a lot of authority as to how they compare. As for their effect on me, I think my environment definitely colors the music, but even so I\u2019m not always sure how. I think I\u2019m more interested in emotional landscapes, but of course those are effected by place as well.\nIn 2005, you co-founded Root Strata, a label that has released music by a number of eminent experimental artists. What\u2019s it like running a label and what have you learned from being on the other side of the artist-label relationship?\nWhen I started Root Strata in 2005, I had no idea what I was doing or where the label would be going, nor any sort of vision as to where it should go for that matter. Maxwell joined me a few years later and helped a lot with organizing and doing day to day activities like mail order and answering emails. The one thing I have learned is running a label is really hard work! It takes a lot of time & effort to do it well, and at least in our case, it\u2019s not a job but more of a hobby. We don\u2019t do it full time, and we don\u2019t make income off of it. I do love supporting friends and releasing music that we think is important, but it\u2019s become increasingly harder to have people pay attention to what we\u2019re doing. Honestly I think Root Strata\u2019s days are numbered!\nAlthough On the Echoing Green rewards a deeper listen, it also works great as naptime musical accompaniment. What are your go-to nap albums?\nOh, there are so many! Recently it\u2019s been Harold Budd, longer works by Shivkumar Sherma, and the kora music by Toumani Diabat\u00e9 or Ablaye Sissoko.\nOn The Echoing Green is out now on Mexican Summer\nPrevious articleBlocland Mix #10\nNext articlePlay Me That Sweet Vapourwave\nI will be listening to this tonight\nHow do you guys keep getting all of these interviews? Goddamn. Good work as always.\nBlocland\u2019s reach is wide and our impact deep.\nWhen you put out content like a chillwave Bracket people are practically lining up\nAs always great stuff Saul! I\u2019ve listened A Year With 13 Moons before and it reminded me of a noise mix for yoga classes. An interesting dude for sure.\nThis album is fucking awesome. Thanks for highlighting Saul! Really nice interview too.",

Canadian Grocer magazine has just given her this award for her excellence, leadership, innovation and dedication to the industry. The panel of judges shortlisted Suzanne for her outstanding career at the head of Tissue Group. Thanks to her strong management skills, she has led the company to nearly one billion dollars in revenues, through acquisitions and consolidations.\nFrom Accountant to President\nSuzanne Blanchet began her career at Cascades in 1978 as an accounting intern. Her ambition and determination led to her quickly being appointed controller for the Tissue Group division. In 1997, she was promoted to President, becoming the first woman to head a Canadian paper company. Under her reign, Cascades Tissue Group became the 4th largest tissue paper manufacturer in North America and currently employs 2,200 men and women in 18 units in North America. No doubt, Suzanne is one of the greatest business women in Qu\u00e9bec, and even in Canada.\nRecognizing Business Women\nThis year was Canadian Grocer\u2019s second edition of Star Women in Grocery. This award recognizes the important role of women in the food industry, across Canada. Winners are selected by Canadian Grocer magazine editors and experts based on four criteria: influence, innovation, dedication, and leadership. This year, eight winners were from the retail industry and eight others from suppliers.\nFor more information about the award or for the official announcement, visit the Canadian Grocer website.\nCongratulations to our President!\nTags: cascades, chief executive officer, dedication, innovation, leadership, management, president, Star Woman in Grocery, sustainable development, Suzanne Blanchet\nMarcus Nerenberg\t July 25, 2013 at 1:02 pm\nDear Suzanne Blanchet,\nI live in Lachute near your paper plant on the North River. In the past four days I watched Cascades destroy the beauty of my neighborhood. Your \u201cenvironmentally friendly\u201d company had cut down about 30 beautiful mature trees in order to expand a parking lot for visually ugly transport trailers. I am sure that my property value has suffered as a result of this thoughtless and destructive act. I need you to get in touch with me to explore a way to remedy this environmentally tragic situation. I find it difficult to express how saddened I feel when I see the how badly my neighborhood has been degraded. Please contact me in the shortest possible delay.\nMarcus Nerenberg\nM\u00e9lanie St-Pierre\tAuthor July 26, 2013 at 2:21 pm\nHello Mr. Nerenberg,\nWe appreciate you taking the time to share your situation with us. After discussions with Cascades people over there at Lachute, I can assure you that we take this situation seriously. This rearrangement is part of an expansion plan that will allow us to improve our installations\u2019 efficiency. Please note that ever since the beginning, we planned on replacing the trees that had to be cut by an even higher amount of trees. Be assured that this is still part of the process! Their new disposition should even block the transport trailers\u2019 view more efficiently than those that were there before. You should also receive a visit from a Cascades\u2019 representative at your house shortly to explain the situation to you.\nWe are sincerely sorry about the inconvenience. We can assure you that sustainability is always part of our core values and that it underlines everything we do.\nPlease contact me if you would like any further information (info@cascades.com).\nLys Chisholm\t December 4, 2015 at 1:44 am\nThis is your neighbor again. It is now December 3, 2015 and still there has been no tree planting or hedges to restore the greenery you cut down in this area. Nor is running transport trucks in a school neighborhood anywhere near a good idea. Sometimes with the changing times, the concept of a factory town becomes obsolete. Lachute has designated areas for industrial use today. Maybe its time to consider relocating and expanding a little further down river where there is space and leave the town core to be developed into residential riverside property.\nM\u00e9lanie St-Pierre\tAuthor December 11, 2015 at 9:13 pm\nDear Mrs. Chisholm,\nFor this project we work in close collaboration with the Support Center located close to our unit. Rest assure that the field will be reorganized to be eco-friendly as soon as possible.",

        "raw_content": "NY State Ed issues memo explaining new law authorizing provision of special ed services to home schooled kids\nThe State Education Department (SED) has issued a memo notifying parents and school districts of the new law authorizing special ed services for home-educated children. The memo explains the new law and highlights that parents seeking special ed services must have an approved IHIP and must submit a request in writing to the board of education by August 6, 2008 for the '08-'09 school year, and by June 1 in future years. The memo further addresses location of services--i.e. districts are empowered to determine the location of services and that can include provision in the home. There is no guidance as to how that determination should be made. The location of services issue has been hotly contested for the better part of two decades, but it should be noted that current 3602-c case law addressing this issue dictates that services be provided on site at a private school if that is necessary for the child to receive an appropriate education. There is no reason to believe that home schoolers will be treated by the SRO and courts any differently than private schoolers on this issue.\u2028Parents of home schoolers who disagree with the CSE\u2019s recommendations are entitled to due process and thus, can request an impartial hearing. The memo further states that \u201cspecial education services must be provided to home-schooled students on an equitable basis as compared to special education programs and services provided to other students with disabilities attending public or nonpublic schools within the district.\u201d It remains to be seen how this will be interpreted, but on its face, I\u2019d say that it means that there should be no reduction of services to a home schooler as compared to a child attending the public schools or a child attending a private school and receiving services pursuant to 3602-c.\nNY State Ed issues memo explaining new law authori...",

        "raw_content": "Of the major social network sites, the most overlooked is LinkedIn. Many companies that could benefit from taking a more active role on LinkedIn, believe it is only for salespeople. That's a shame because LinkedIn offers businesses many avenues for potential growth, besides just looking up contacts. Here are a few possibilities to explore on LinkedIn for your company:\nWord Of Mouth Marketing -\nMany businesses have been built on this principle. Before social media this could take a lot of hard work. It still is, but with social networking sites like LinkedIn, all of your connections can talk about your company with their connections. In that way, word about your business can spread amongst a group of individuals whose average household income is significantly higher than the users of other social networking sites, such as Twitter or Facebook. Not only that, but many of the people using LinkedIn are the real achievers and decision makers in their respective industries.\nInteract -\nThere are many ways to interact on LinkedIn, some you many not think of. Show off your knowledge and expertise in your company's field by answering questions in the Questions and Answers section of LinkedIn. Conduct a poll or survey and share the results you gather. This will help you and others gain marketing and industry insights and get your company noticed. Make sure to join as many groups related to your industry as possible, or start a group yourself. Link all your social networks so updates on each one, show up on the other networks. Doing that will maximize your possibilities for interaction.\nPresent Yourself And Your Company Properly -\nDo this by making sure your profile is completed 100% and thoroughly represent all that you and your business are about. A properly completed profile helps you gain the trust of others. Share information about your company and what it does by adding a profile of your business. This is the place where you can do a little self promotion about products and services provided by the company.\nThese are just a few ideas, there are many more possibilities available by making full use of your LinkedIn account to spread the word about your business.",

We left at around 10:15 and arrived at around 10:35. When we got there, we were assigned different tables. I was assigned my regular table at school, with Ryan and Rick, so I was satisfied with the assignments. We each received a sheet of paper and we had to ask each other 4 questions, like what was their name, and what their favorite food was. My favorite food we had was Lomo Saltado because it was lamb and other things and rice with French fries, which were delicious! The next serving was Chicha Morada. Chicha Morada is a type of juice made out of pineapple, cinnamon, blue corn, etc. I thought that the drink was good, but the other people in my table thought that the cinnamon aftertaste was too strong. I had to agree that the cinnamon was strong, but the drink itself is extremely refreshing. After the Chicha Morada, we had Pollo Saltado, which is chicken and lots of other things with rice. Pollo Saltado is basically Lomo Saltado, but with chicken instead of lamb. Pescado was after this. This fish was really good because of the sauce on top of it and because it was friend with no bones.

        "raw_content": "Solar Milestone \u2014 Overnight Demand vs Daytime Demand\nA Solar Energy Production Peak in 2018\nEvery homeowner and business wants steady, uninterrupted electricity. A stable and resilient power supply network to make this happen is a challenge. On any given day, there is a wide diversity in demand. If power on the network doesn\u2019t match the demand at any moment, the results are usually noticeable. Everyone experiences light flickering as a symptom. When mismatches are worse, there could be short brownouts.\nFrom power plant operations to energy transmission and distribution management, every party that manages a piece of the supply must be ready. They cannot just be reactive. Planning and forecasting is a large part of the task in keeping the network stable. Teams of people are looking at hour ahead needs, and all the way up to 2 and 3 years out.\nAs operators look ahead to predict the need to increase or decrease supply levels throughout the grid, they have limited options. Energy may be redirected in some cases. Dispatchable generating plants \u2013 or ones that can be scaled up or down relatively quickly \u2013 are usually cycled as first option.\nWith the growth of solar power, many utilities have modified their forecasting and planning. Solar peaks and demand peaks fluctuate differently during the day. Having more flexibility in using the existing dispatchable capacity is a big deal.\nA First Time Record is Made on April 21, 2018\nA Historic Solar Energy Event\nOn April 21, 2018, something happened within the New England power grid for the first time. The mix of electricity demand and solar energy production made history. The midday peak energy demand from the power grid was lower than at the lowest point overnight. The nighttime demand wasn\u2019t higher than usual. The reason for this historic first is the effectiveness of energy efficiency and the combined output of 130,000 small, medium and large solar installations in New England. The capacity of off-the-grid solar installations in New England \u2014 mostly rooftop solar panels \u2014 has grown almost tenfold since 2012, to more than 2,500 megawatts (MW).\nSolar power\u2019s ability to drive grid-scale reductions in demand was expected: The capacity of off-the-grid solar installations in New England \u2014 mostly rooftop solar panels \u2014 has grown almost tenfold since 2012, to 2,400 megawatts. Roughly speaking, that\u2019s enough to power almost 2 million homes \u2014 when the sun is shining.\nThere are a number of reasons why this is an important solar power milestone. Two of the more important reasons are:\nThis is tangible evidence of the changing nature of power supply within the ISO New England territory. On the sunniest of days, the existing dispatchable plants are least needed. This also gives planners more flexibility to keep the grid stable. With more idle plant capacity, the first plants to be scaled up can be the cheapest to operate. Of course, the more they are idle or running at reduced capacity, the less fuel they burn and the consequences of those emissions are lowered.\nThe debates about expanding fossil fueled generating capacity, natural gas pipelines, importing more hydropower from Quebec, etc., are all now changed as more local solar energy generating capacity slows down those needs. To be fair, the debate about how to best prepare dispatchable capacity for the future is changing, too.\nAdding a solar energy system to your business or organization is a quick way to realize immediate savings as well as 25+ years of reducing or eliminating reliance on your utility. And with each new commercial solar installation, the chances of the next historic solar energy event grow. Soon we might see successive days where daytime gird demand is lower than overnight demand.\nWe encourage you to take a serious look at solar for your location. Simply request a free evaluation and we will provide you with a summary of options.\nJust 3 Short Years Ago Solar Impact Was Small\nMore Details: About the Solar Energy Duck Curves (above)\nPeople who are immersed daily in the solar energy market have been introduced to what has been labeled the \u201cduck curve\u201d. Utilities have long plotted the energy demand and power generation levels each day, week, month, and over longer periods. As more renewable energy is added, and especially solar energy, a unique shape appears almost regularly. As the sun begins to set, the levels of solar energy production lessen. Energy demands are often still at or near daily peaks. So the grid power supply curve bends upwards in the late afternoon and early evening. The nominal shape has earned the name of \u201cduck curve\u201d.\nThis phenomena first because obvious and repeated in California as early as 2012 and 2013. The local April 21 event marks the first time we could say New England is \u201ccatching up\u201d with California. And if you look closely at the shape of the above visual from ISO New England, you see the point where the difference between solar generation, and grid power demand resulted in the \u201cbelly of the duck\u201d being lower than the previous night\u2019s lowest demand. From about 1:30 PM to about 3:30 PM history was made.\nAbout ISO New England\nISO New England is responsible for power markets and grid operations that extend across Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island and Vermont.\nIt is officially defined as an independent, non-profit Regional Transmission Organization (RTO), headquartered in Holyoke, Massachusetts. An RTO is an electric power transmission system operator (TSO) which coordinates, controls and monitors a multi-state electric grid.",

        "title": "Uncle Sam\u2019s Travel \u2013 Stories from the funny farm",
        "raw_content": "At the end of spring quarter, each Navy student had three weeks to report to his summer training cruise in Norfolk, Virginia. From Oregon that is about 3,000 miles one-way. We were all offered the usual assortment of travel options at government expense. We could request travel vouchers for train or bus transportation, while flying was not an option. The military services used only public transportation or reimbursement for travel by private car when authorized. Minimum cost to the government was a requirement.\nAs poor students we discussed the many options, and in the process calculated how much we would receive traveling by car. Round trip from Corvallis to Norfolk was about 6,000 miles. Travel reimbursement at 5 cents a mile would be $300 per person. None of us had a car. As we all needed to go, we figured that four in a car would generate $1200. This was all potential money, as we would travel at our own expense, then be reimbursed when the trip was completed. With this sum we could buy a used car, pay the operating costs, and have some spending money left over at the end of the trip. In the business school this was called an economy of scale. It seemed a reasonable plan, so four of us agreed to pursue the adventure. The group included Jim Todd, Jim Grimm, Jack Thomas, and me. We were all in the same pledge class at the Sig Ep house.\nTodd offered to look for an appropriate used car. In a short time he identified a 1939 Plymouth sedan in good condition with high but reasonable mileage. As this was 1951, the car was only 12 years old. For $350 dollars we were in business, and still had $850 remaining. We estimated operating expenses at $100 maximum. If all worked out as planned, we would have $750 left over at the end of the trip to divide among ourselves. In addition we would still own the car, which we could use, or sell as we saw fit. The plan was set, travel dates established, and we all went home to prepare for our first summer cruise. As I lived in Kansas, I rode the train back home where they were to pick me up in two weeks.\nDuring this era the only interstate highways were a stretch from San Francisco to Los Angeles, and a second from Chicago to New York called the Pennsylvania Turnpike. Most of the other U.S. highways were two-lane roads, which followed the section lines from town to town. A cross-country trip required a lot of city driving with open intersections, stop signs and stoplights. It was a ponderous ordeal for which the Navy said 350 miles a day was enough. Three thousand miles at 40 miles an hour would require 75 hours, a little over three straight days for a one-way trip driving 24 hours a day. Reasonable young persons might figure driving 12 or 15 hours. The group opted to drive continuously, day and night, across the entire country.\nAn important advantage of this plan was to avoid some of the summer heat. Without air conditioning, the traveling could be miserable during daylight hours. Cars at the time were notorious for running hot when driven steadily at highway speeds, when loaded, or going up hill. We were planning to do all three. Traveling at night provided a break from the heat and avoided the daytime traffic in the towns along the way. The plan also allowed half of the travel to be performed at night when the car would run cooler. With four of us, we could switch drivers as needed.\nOn departure day the Oregon three left on schedule, and planned to arrive in western Kansas around noon the following day. Their selected route went through eastern Oregon, Idaho and Wyoming. At Cheyenne they leave the mountains behind, and follow the foothills to Denver. Beyond Denver it is all high plains with rolling hills and prairie. I packed my bags in preparation for their timely arrival. At noon they had not arrived. As they were on the road it was not likely they would call. Long distance calls often took as long as the drive for short distances. The only option was to wait. I waited, while visions of doom or major car repairs were rampant.\nSix hours later they arrived appearing haggard and worn. Their story was interesting, though not unexpected for a group unfamiliar with roads in the prairie. They had left Oregon early in the morning and had driven all day, changing drivers as needed. Everything was working like a clock. Late that evening they turned south at Cheyenne and drove through Denver toward Limon right on schedule. At Limon they were to make the final highway change onto U.S. 24 into Kansas. It was now 4:00 in the morning. They had been on the road more than a full day. Todd was driving while the other two were sleeping like babies.\nJust west of Limon was a modern interchange which merged slowly from one highway to another. Todd took the first turn identified as U.S. 24. He continued driving through towns and countryside until the natives began to stir. Just before dawn he was concerned that the road was particularly hilly, even mountainous. He said to his buddies I didn\u2019t know there were mountains in Kansas. They agreed, and stopped to assess the situation. They were on the right highway, U.S. 24, but they were traveling west, and had driven back up into the mountains well beyond Colorado Springs. This side trip in the dark took them 300 miles out of the way and accounted perfectly for the six-hour delay. It was one of the few times that any travelers had seen the Kansas mountains.\nThe balance of the trip was surprisingly without incident. The car ran perfectly. The weather was tolerable. The group was congenial. We were all reimbursed for travel as expected, and pocketed the extra money as a bonus for our courage. Todd became attached to the car and negotiated to buy our shares for a reasonable price, giving each of us a little added bonus. We figured it was exactly the way Uncle Sam would want us to travel, \u2013 haggard and worn.",

Electronics recycling can be a win-win situation for everyone. The dangers posed by improper disposal of electronics can be avoided. You are left with peace of mind, and the Earth will thank you for not adding to the tipping of her delicate balance.\nThe world of electronics moves so quickly today that is can become a fill time job just trying to keep up with it all. Electronics have become smaller and faster and as soon as you upgrade your phone, laptop or tablet, they may be already obsolete.\nElectronics recycling is the answer you are looking for. Not only will they be properly disposed of by an electronics recycling professional but they might actually be able to rescue it and pass it along to someone who could really use a computer, cell phone or tablet.\nAccording to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), over 400 million electronic devices are tossed out each and every year. That\u2019s right \u2013 400 MILLION.\nOut of this unbelievable number, the EPA has estimated that less than 20% of it is recycled. What happens to the other 80%? It gets dropped off at landfills where its poisons and toxins leek into the earth and the air. The result of all this? More air pollution, especially plastic and lead, and a dangerous increase in toxins and poisons getting into the nation\u2019s drinking water supplies.\nSo, in the long run, electronics recycling is something you can do that will make a tremendous difference in the health of the planet as well as maybe making a difference in someone\u2019s life. Just remember to get in touch with an electronics recycling professional. They are highly trained and know what they are doing. The proper disposal or recycling of your electronics is far too important to be left to chance.",

        "raw_content": "My First Time Failing Murph\nI went into this workout yesterday fully confident that I was going to successfully complete it. I was looking forward to being able to tell everybody that I did it, and that I could push my body to its limits and finish what I started.\nLet's rewind for a minute and take a look at what my weekend was like. On Friday, I drove 11 hours across the state of New York to a fitness conference in Toronto. On Saturday and Sunday, I sat through lectures from 9 am to 4:30 pm. I went to bed late both nights and my body wouldn't let me sleep past 6:45 am either morning. I packed healthy food to eat throughout the weekend, but my macros were off by miles and my water intake was significantly lower than my typical 100+ ounces per day. On Sunday, I had to make the drive back home and nine hours later I arrived around 1:30 am. My weekend was fueled by excessive amounts of coffee and energy drinks to keep me focused and able to network with other fitness professionals, rather than letting myself curl up and nap during any spare time.\nWas attempting Murph still it worth it? Absolutely. Am I glad it's over? I'm just happy to get back to my normal schedule and routine.\nWhen it comes to routines (workouts, specifically) doing the same thing week after week can get stale and boring. Personally, I end up losing motivation, sight of my goals, and stop looking forward to my workouts. Hence, I failed my attempt at Murph.\nI saw the Murph challenge as something new, something different, and something to challenge my body in a way I had never tried before. I knew I was tired, dehydrated, and I had spent the last three days sitting and being sedentary, but I didn't know how much of an effect that would have on my performance.\nAfter running the first mile, I knew it was going to be a struggle. I rarely run to begin with, but I completed it in a little over ten minutes. I felt dizzy, out of breath, and I was already sweating profusely. What was I thinking? I refilled my water bottle, walked a few laps, and got down to business. Yes, I used a band to help me complete my pull ups. Yes, I elevated my push ups to take some pressure off my wrists and maintain good form. I still only made it halfway through the workout.\n59 pull ups, 100 push ups, and 150 squats later, I called it. My body felt like it was on one of those vibrating plates\u2014everything was shaking and I could barely make it up the step stool to reach the bar for my pull ups. I was so disappointed. I was frustrated with myself because I hadn't done more over the weekend to prepare, and that I hadn't maintained my eating and fitness habits.\nAs I put my equipment away, I thought about what I had accomplished. I pulled my chin up over a bar over 50 times. That's pretty darn impressive, especially for a female. Pull ups are really freaking hard for us, and it can take months to work up to just one single pull up, let alone 59 assisted pull ups with a band. Also, I'm not a CrossFitter; my workouts aren't typically AMRAP or EMOM or pushing myself to the point of wondering whether my last snack is going to stay down. I made it halfway through this crazy intense workout at less than 100% and that is something I should be proud of.\nAm I going to attempt this workout again in the future? You betcha. I have a goal now, and one day I will complete the entire workout. When I do, you better believe that I'm going to document it as a life event on Facebook, too. The moral of the story: change things up every now and then. If you want to try something new, give it a shot and don't be afraid to fail.

        "raw_content": "Sunday Snippet: Benedict Cumberbatch on Fame and Critics\nPosted by Michael Kwan | Jan 26, 2014 | Perspectives, Quotes to Live By | 1 |\n\u201cSomeone will always hate what I say. There\u2019s always going to be somebody spitting blood about my wooden-faced, toffee-named, crappy acting.\u201d\nIn the last few years, Benedict Cumberbatch has really made a name for himself. He played Khan in the most recent Star Trek movie. He provided the voice of Smaug the dragon in the most recent Hobbit movie. And, as depicted above, he plays the titular character on BBC\u2019s Sherlock. You could say that all three of these characters have a similar misanthropic edge to them. Maybe Cumberbatch just has a natch for those kinds of roles.\nSuddenly stepping into the limelight, Benedict Cumberbatch has come into quite a bit of fame and, presumably, a fair bit of fortune. However, when you choose to step into the public eye, you have to understand that you will be viciously scrutinized for everything that you do. It\u2019s one of the sacrifices you make when you step into a public role, like that of an actor, athlete or politician. Nothing you do will ever be good enough for everyone.\nI\u2019ve experienced this myself, on an understandably much smaller scale. Even if you are generally received as being stellar at what you do, even if nine out of ten people are floored by your talent, there will always be that one other person who will call you \u201cwooden-faced\u201d or say that you are \u201ccrappy\u201d at your job. You can\u2019t please everyone all of the time, so you really shouldn\u2019t let the haters get you down. Someone will always hate you, rightly or wrongly.\nAnd perhaps that is one lesson that we should all take from the iconic character of Sherlock Holmes . He can come off as cold and emotionless at times, but he also does not allow public opinion to interfere with his detective work. He doesn\u2019t allow it to become a distraction and, from the looks of things, neither does the actor who plays him. But that\u2019s not to say he isn\u2019t grateful for the praise he does receive. After all, he did become a word\u2026\n\u201cI am very flattered. I have also become a verb as in I have cumberbatched the UK audience apparently. Who knows, by the end of the year I might become a swear word too! It\u2019s crazy and fun and very flattering.\u201d\nGet out there, do what you do best, and accept that not everyone is going to love you. Now, if you\u2019ll excuse me, the game is afoot.\nTags: criticism, popularity, sherlock\nPreviousCause and Solution Aren\u2019t Necessarily Related\nNextDine Out Vancouver \u2013 Bistro 101 at Pacific Institute of Culinary Arts (Granville Island)\nSunday Snippet: Steve Irwin\nApplying Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Principles to Everyday Life\nSunday Snippet: Marsel van Oosten\nThree Key Tips for Improving Productivity\nRay Ebersole\ton January 26, 2014 at 12:29 pm\nSo too when fame and fortune lead to criticism you must learn how to react to it. If you engage, you are seen as defensive and if you don\u2019t you are seen as how they wish you to. Double edged sword, but you must be comfortable with how you present yourself to the public.\nIt has always amazed me at what comes out of people\u2019s mouths that are public figures or people in important positions in the business world. Filter people filter, should be written on a card and given to anyone in politics, management, the media or acting. Take your time, think about what you are writing or saying any you may not be the trending item on Twitter or become a hashtag.\nSunday Snippet: Sherlock Holmes on Fear \u00bb Beyond the Rhetoric - [\u2026] character as created by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle or the newest incarnation played brilliantly by Benedict Cumberbatch here \u2014\u2026",

        "title": "Bucks County What Is Chapter 13 Bankruptcy | Filing | Information | Bucks County Bankruptcy Lawyer - Chapter 7 and 13",
        "raw_content": "Bucks County What is Chapter 13 Bankruptcy\nIn Bucks County, it is often misunderstood exactly what is a Chapter 13 bankruptcy. Briefly, it requires making payments over time to creditors through the U.S. Trustee after filing Chapter 13 bankruptcy. The payment plans can be as short as a few months, or as long as five years. Some people have problems that cannot be taken care of with a Chapter 7 bankruptcy, and are better off filing a Chapter 13 bankruptcy plan.\nThe following debts and problems can often be handled more advantageously in a Chapter 13 bankruptcy:\nHouse payments that are several months behind\nCar payments that are several months behind\nReducing a car payment to an affordable level\nReducing a furniture or household payment to an affordable level\nModerate to large NSF Checks\nCriminal and Traffic Ticket Fines\nReinstating a suspended driver\u2019s license\nInjuries caused by your intentional conduct (such as assaulting someone)\nUnpaid alimony or spousal maintenance\nAbove the median income on the means test\nChapter 13 bankruptcy information can be found by asking a qualified Bucks County bankruptcy lawyer. Frequently, filing a Chapter 13 bankruptcy will help an individual who is behind on payments for secured property, such as their home or their car. The Chapter 13 bankruptcy can help an individual \u201ccatch up\u201d\nAny individual, even if self-employed or operating an unincorporated business, is eligible for Chapter 13 relief as long as the individual\u2019s unsecured debts are less than $360,475 and secured debts are less than $1,081,400. Filing Chapter 13 bankruptcy is not an option for a corporation or partnership.\nA Bucks County individual cannot file under Chapter 13 or any other chapter if, during the preceding 180 days, a prior bankruptcy petition was dismissed due to the debtor\u2019s willful failure to appear before the court or comply with orders of the court or was voluntarily dismissed after creditors sought relief from the bankruptcy court to recover property upon which they hold liens. A debtor may be time-barred by the Chapter 13 bankruptcy trustee if they have filed multiple Chapter 13 bankruptcies over a period of time. Again, it is always best to confirm your options and strategy with a Bucks County bankruptcy law firm.\nBehind Payments, Child Support, Chapter 13 Bankruptcy Information & More\nChapter 13 bankruptcy in Bucks County offers individuals a number of advantages over liquidation under Chapter 7, but it is always best to ask a Bucks County bankruptcy attorney before deciding.\nPerhaps most significantly, Chapter 13 bankruptcy offers individuals an opportunity to save their homes from foreclosure if they are behind on payments. By filing under this chapter, individuals can stop foreclosure proceedings and may cure delinquent mortgage payments over time. Nevertheless, they must still make all mortgage payments that come due during the Chapter 13 plan on time. Another advantage of Chapter 13 bankruptcy is that it allows individuals to reschedule secured debts (other than a mortgage for their primary residence) and extend them over the life of the Chapter 13 plan. Doing this may lower the payments. Chapter 13 also has a special provision that protects third parties who are liable with the debtor on \u201cconsumer debts.\u201d This provision may protect co-signers. Finally, Chapter 13 acts like a consolidation loan under which the individual makes the plan payments to a Chapter 13 bankruptcy trustee who then distributes payments to creditors. Individuals will have no direct contact with creditors while under Chapter 13 bankruptcy protection.\nI understand this may be confusing, so before filing Chapter 13 bankruptcy, please call me for Bucks County Chapter 13 bankruptcy information and I will provide you with a free consultation.\nCommon Tags: What Is Chapter 13 Bankruptcy, Behind Payments, Child Support, Traffic Tickets, Unpaid Alimony, Spousal Maintenance, Taxes, Reducing, Fraud, Embezzlement, Filing, Information",

        "title": "Buff's Tufftalk: Tell-All Gay Sex Sells Books, But Is It Really Necessary?",
        "raw_content": "Tell-All Gay Sex Sells Books, But Is It Really Necessary?\nTwo gay men are stomping the talk show circuit, hawking their tell-all books.\nJim McGreevy, former NJ governor, has been making the talk show rounds promoting his book, Confessions.\nIn it, he tells how, quoting him, \" The closet is a sick place. Every day, every hour, every minute, every interaction, I lied, I hid,\" McGreevey told Winfrey. \"That's not where you find love, in the back of a booth. That's where you fulfill a physical need. But that's not being godly, that's not finding love.\"\nA very demeaning outlook on life, according to him. He seems to have mistaken sex for love. So he was messed up. It seems that being gay makes you tortured.\nIt's not being gay that does it, it's how you handle it. Coming and cuming to terms with it is the only way to be happy. You accept the fact and move on with your life. Living as a gay man, with its benefits as well as its challenges, is what we are. Embracing it, finding how we fit in, and really, being there for each other if something does go wrong, that's the best way to live.\nI don't buy his argument that gay sex was shameful. That's bull shit. We all know that man sex is the best sex. We are sexual, and we like sex. As long as straights continue to judge us, and we, somehow, feel that gay sex is dirty and isn't normal, then we will forever be burdened by their views and force ourselves into believing it. We guys know that gay sex is fucking better than hetero sex. It feels better, with all its passion and tension. WOOF.\nThen there is Rupert Everett. His quote flooding the blogs and newswires is something worthy of self flogging. Rupert is quoted as saying, \"Unfortunately, I am single, yes, but I'm too exhausted for anything else and being gay is a young man's game. Now no one wants me. Being gay and being a woman has one big thing in common, which is that we both become invisible after the age of 42. Who wants a gay 50- year-old? No one let me tell you. I could set myself on fire in a gay bar, and people would just light their cigarettes from me.\"\nBlah, blah. What's up with Rupert? I guess he hates rejection from every twink he hits on. I used to like Rupert as an actor, but I am tired of such whining. He sounds like he is getting into character to play Quentin Crisp, the queen's queen, the Naked Civil Servant, sometime in the future. Gosh, if ever two guys were meant for each other, George Michael and Rupert would be a perfect match.\nSo Rupert, if you are reading this, just grow up. Pouting isn't becoming nor cute , especially for a grown, middleaged man. If you liked to get fucked, explore leather and get yourself a hunky master. Take a cue from McGreevy, be realistic, come to terms with being older, and leave the drama to the drama queens. You'd be doing both yourself and your fans a big favor.\nWow! They both have a theme. They are both shallow totally brain dead mouth flappers. Does either of these people present someone who you would consider courageous?\nWow, I had heard that from Rupert, funny, I think you hit the nail on the head \"Who wants a 50 year old gay guy?\" indeed! My last LTR was with a 60 year old (I'm 31), my last boyfriend now best friend is 49, and I'm hoping to be dating two 54 year olds in the near future, one of which gave me such a raucous evening I couldn't keep up with him (his score 4, FOUR!!! mine 2, a pathetic two, at 31!) So Rupie, sounds like your self hatred is really just self prophecy!\n*Side note, my word verification, and no lie here, started with i bad, hehehe, that made me laugh.\nHi Buff.\nOK..you've read my thoughts about McGreevy.....I want to be compassionate to the guy, I just can't. If you were a big freakin homophobe, don't expect me to be cheering when you are cured.\nAs for Rupert. Shut up with the whining. There are great guys out there who are my age (41) and older....Not to mention that we are mature and have some idea about what we want....what a novel idea.\nThanks for letting me rant...and visiting my blog...\nIsn't America over with the coming-of-age drama of coming out? Sheesh.\nLike, who cares anymore. Lance Bass's story in People was more uplifting. He said something like \"I'm not just gay, I'm a musician that's also gay.\" That was something to be proud of.\nOh, and for Pete's sake.. straight or gay, we always perceive the world as \"for the young.\" It's too bad; downright discraceful. However, ageism is the one bias we overcome... cause we all get old. It's always better than the alternative (dead). Nevertheless, I, personally, favor the older men. Even as I get older, I still fancy them. If not for their bods, but for their maturity. Here's to over 35!\nI remember being a young superficial little faggot. If there\u2019s any shame in my life, that would be it. Not the sex in interesting places, that was a choice I made and I\u2019m not ashamed of it, besides, it\u2019s fun. And yes, Man sex is the best sex, if the rest of them could figure it out, they would only be jealous.\nAt 48 I\u2019m sure the young pups look at me and think I\u2019m so old I fart dust. I look at them and think, so young, needs so much training I can\u2019t be bothered. I don\u2019t have the patience to be somebody\u2019s \u201cdaddy\u201d.\nOh god... I have a daddy complex. Worse yet, twinks are starting to view *me* as a daddy. Oh jesus!\nOuch! You tell 'em, Buff!\nOh Buff...\nThere are more sexy 40 plus year olds out there than you can imagine. I'm with ya Damien. I'm still single at 46 but have to admit, I've come across some pretty hot men as old and older than me. And I have had a sufficient amount of stares that have made me fill like a piece of 'swiss cheese' if you know what I mean. Probably the hardest thing is placing yourself in the right situation. We all have our comfort levels with various environments, but there is someone out there for all.\nNo one is attractive when they're whining. Sure it can get you attention, just like people gawk at a car wreck, but it's not sexy.\ncopperred said...\nI know a way to stop Everett's whining, and he'll have sex too. He's not too hard on the eyes.\nI know what Rupert Everett means though, especially in the \"fabulous\" circles. It is a young man's game, in that arena. Still I wonder if Tom Ford is single? There I go, matchmaking again.\ncomment4U said...\nI agree, Mr. Buff! I can't stand any of the tell-all's with the bedroom scenes. If I'm not asking, don't tell......[ugh]\ni think rupert is sexy as hell! but my opinion dont count...im 45!! egads!!!",

        "raw_content": "A much younger me in my early days at The Lord\u2019s Ranch.\nThirty-five years ago today I arrived at The Lord\u2019s Ranch right after finishing my first year of college at Franciscan University in Steubenville, Ohio. I came on a 3 week mission trip, after which I was to return to Hawaii, work at home for the summer, and then return to Steubenville to continue my college eduction. At least, that was my plan. But God had a big surprise for me.\nDuring my first week here, I started getting the uncomfortable sense that the Lord was calling me to stay. I was horrified! I had never before been to the desert or experienced dry, swelteringly hot weather. I was born and raised in the tropical paradise of Hawaii, surrounded by the Pacific Ocean, palm trees and an abundance of flowers and rain forests. The Ranch, on the other hand, is surrounded by mesquite bushes, tumbleweed and a parched semi-arid landscape.\n\u201cLord, you\u2019ve got the wrong person in mind,\u201d I cried out in my prayer. \u201cI could never live here, never hack this life of hard manual labor, no air conditioning, and very few creature comforts. Choose someone else, not me!\u201d\nBut the strong feeling that God was calling me to a radical departure from my carefully planned-out life kept growing in me. One day in the chapel at the Ranch, I received this reading from the book of Ruth:\nI have heard what you have done\u2026 you have left your father and your mother and the land of your birth, and have come to a people whom previously you did not know. May the Lord reward what you have done! May you receive a full reward from the Lord, the God of Israel, under whose wings you have come for refuge.\u201d Ruth 2:12-13\nI slammed the Bible shut. I did not like where this was going!\nAfter the second week of wrestling with the Lord, I stopped praying. I didn\u2019t like what He was saying. I was sure He had gotten the wrong girl. I was only 18 years old! Too young, too inexperienced, too much of a wimp, not tough enough. My excuses sounded good to me.\nSo I threw down a fleece (like Gideon did in Judges 6:36ff). \u201cLord, if you are really serious, speak to me through Sister.\u201d Sister Mary Virginia was the nun who co-led the community with Fr. Rick Thomas. She had an authentic gift of prophecy and would share inspired words at the prayer gatherings. That week at prayer meeting, she stood up and said, \u201cI have a prophecy for the young women from Steubenville.\u201d That got my attention. I don\u2019t remember anything she said, except for the words, \u201cFollow the example of the women in the Old Testament.\u201d Ouch! I thought immediately of my reading in Ruth.\n\u201cOkay, Lord. This is getting too real.\u201d So out comes another fleece: \u201cIf you are really serious, have Sister Mary Virginia say something to me directly.\u201d There, I thought. That should do it.\nSister used to speak individually with all the visitors who came through The Lord\u2019s Ranch, so it was not unusual that she asked to meet with me that weekend. We had a nice chat, with her asking me about my family, my background, what led me to the Ranch, etc. She said a prayer at the end of our conversation, and I got up to leave. \u201cWhew, dodged a bullet,\u201d I was thinking, when suddenly she said, \u201cHave you ever thought about staying here?\u201d\nMy heart sank. I couldn\u2019t respond so just nodded yes. All she told me was, \u201cI\u2019ll pray for you.\u201d And I sadly walked out the door.\nI\u2019ll continue the story next week. Stay tuned for part 2.\nHola, Hermana! \u201c)\nHappy Anniversary!! And THANK YOU for saying \u2018yes\u2019, however feebly and reluctantly. \ud83d\ude42 You have been & are a tremendous blessing in my life!\nThank you, hermana! You are a blessing to me, too!\nHappy anniversary, Ellen!!!\nThank you, Lori! God bless you\nRosemary Hogarty says",

        "raw_content": "Physics XI | 1.2 SCOPE AND EXCITEMENT OF PHYSICS\n1.2 SCOPE AND EXCITEMENT OF PHYSICS\nWe can get some idea of the scope of physics by looking at its various sub-disciplines. Basically, there are two domains of interest: macroscopic and microscopic. The macroscopic domain includes phenomena at the laboratory, terrestrial and astronomical scales. The microscopic domain includes atomic, molecular and nuclear phenomena. Classical Physics deals mainly with macroscopic phenomena and includes subjects like Mechanics. Electrodynamics, Optics and Thermodynamics. Mechanics founded on Newton\u2019s laws of motion and the law of gravitation is concerned with the motion (or equilibrium) of particles, rigid and deformable bodies, and general systems of particles. The propulsion of a rocket by a jet of ejecting gases, propagation of water waves or sound waves in air, the equilibrium of a bent rod under a load, etc., are problems of mechanics. Electrodynamics deals with electric and magnetic phenomena associated with charged and magnetic bodies. Its basic laws were given by Coulomb, Oersted, Ampere and Faraday, and encapsulated by Maxwell in his famous set of equations. The motion of a current-carrying conductor in a magnetic field, the response of a circuit to an ac voltage (signal), the working of an antenna, the propagation of radio waves in the ionosphere, etc., are problems of electrodynamics. Optics deals with the phenomena involving light. The working of telescopes and microscopes, colours exhibited by thin films, etc., are topics in optics. Thermodynamics, in contrast to mechanics, does not deal with the motion of bodies as a whole. Rather, it deals with systems in macroscopic equilibrium and is concerned with changes in internal energy, temperature, entropy, etc., of the system through external work and transfer of heat. The efficiency of heat engines and refrigerators, the direction of a physical or chemical process, etc., are problems of interest in thermodynamics.",

The harm they cause can last a lifetime and span generations, with serious adverse effects on health, education and employment. The primary prevention of these types of violence will therefore save lives and money \u2013 investments made now to stop intimate partner and sexual violence before they occur will protect the physical, mental and economic well-being and development of individuals, families, communities and whole societies. This document aims to provide sufficient information for policy-makers and planners to develop data-driven and evidence-based programs for preventing intimate partner and sexual violence against women and is divided into the following chapters:\nChapter 3 summarizes the scientific evidence base for primary prevention strategies, and describes programs of known effectiveness, those supported by emerging evidence and those that could potentially be effective but have yet to be sufficiently evaluated for their impact.\nChapter 4 presents a six-step framework for taking action, generating evidence and sharing results. In the closing section, several future research priorities are outlined and a number of key conclusions drawn.\nThe evidence-based prevention of intimate partner and sexual violence is still in its early days and much remains to be accomplished. At present, only one strategy has evidence supporting its effectiveness \u2013 and this only relates to intimate partner violence. . . .\nThis course is an evidence based summation that reviews the risk and protective factors as well as evidence based practices for prevention.\n\u00b7 Describe IPV prevention strategies for childhood and early adolescence.\n\u00b7 Identify IPV prevention strategies for other life stages.\n\u00b7 Identify elements of effective intimate partner and sexual violence prevention programs.\nCitation: World Health Organization.

        "raw_content": "A Conscious Compassionate Action Movement\nThis past weekend we had a renewal of Precepts retreat at the Monastery. There were folks who had accepted the Precepts in the last few years and some who have been committed to living the Precepts since our first retreat at the Monastery nearly thirty years ago.\nDuring the retreat we look at and talk about each of the Precepts. This year had a new twist. When it came to \u201cNot to publish other people\u2019s faults\u201d and \u201cNot to extol oneself and slander others\u201d and \u201cNot to be angry\u201d people began to talk about the Precepts relative to current events in the United States.\nWhat the conversation roughly boiled down to was: \u201cI get so upset when I hear about what\u2019s happening politically that the only way I can not get angry and not be critical and judgmental is not to pay any attention to what\u2019s happening in the world.\u201d\nOh, my. Score a bunch of points for egocentric karmic conditioning/self-hate!\nFirst, we have the assumption that the \u201cgoal\u201d of awareness practice is to feel the \u201cright way,\u201d and whatever we need do to achieve that goal is the right thing to do.\nThe equanimity the Buddha points us toward is not a synonym for ignorance or unconsciousness. Our aim in practice is not the successful meeting of ego\u2019s standards for proper behavior. If I\u2019m upset it is my best opportunity to \u201cbe with\u201d that upset, paying very close attention, until I\u2019m able to untie that karmic knot and be free of that upset. In one of our books we use the image of putting your head in the sand and failing to realize your bottom is waving around in the breeze! Little kids close their eyes and claim, \u201cYou can\u2019t see me,\u201d but that doesn\u2019t mean we can\u2019t see them!\nIf we make ourselves feel better (be the \u201cright\u201d person) by ignoring what\u2019s happening to everyone and everything else, we play perfectly into ego\u2019s hand. All our attention is on the voices in conditioned mind telling us what to do, what to say, and how to be.\nThe voices of egocentric karmic conditioning/self-hate yammering on incessantly in conditioned mind would have us believe we have two choices. 1) Be involved and be miserable, angry, upset, and depressed, or 2) ignore everything and live in \u201cthe little bubble of safety\u201d (as I\u2019ve heard it called) I can create for myself.\nI would suggest Zen Awareness practice offers us a third, powerful alternative\u2014conscious compassionate awareness. Or as we sometimes refer to it: Presence.\nWe must not be surprised that egocentric karmic conditioning/self-hate has a plan for this as well. It takes the form of \u201cYou need to embrace in compassion those you find so upsetting.\u201d To that I would say, \u201cYes, just as soon as you reach Buddhahood.\u201d Jiyu Kennett would say, \u201cWith the ideal comes the actual.\u201d Between now and reaching the ideal we can practice here in the realm of the actual!\nWhat does that look like? The voices would have us believe that being upset is proof that we\u2019re the wrong person. \u201cYou\u2019re angry. It\u2019s wrong to be angry. You need to feel bad.\u201d But what if what\u2019s being called anger is actually a pushing back in an attempt to protect against deep hurt? What if what\u2019s going on is that you care so deeply, feel so sad and helpless and hopeless at what\u2019s being done to people and creatures and the planet that not defending against that pain feels like you won\u2019t survive?\nIf you can relate to that and really don\u2019t want to fall into any dualities, how about this as a possibility? Every time you encounter something that feels cruel or hateful or dangerous, instead of turning away turn toward that and acknowledge the pain you feel. Just acknowledge it. Let yourself feel it directly. If you\u2019re afraid of what you feel you can acknowledge and feel that too. But above all, remind yourself that what you\u2019re feeling is your caring. You\u2019re feeling your connection to all beings. You\u2019re experiencing the truth of \u201cnothing happens to you that doesn\u2019t happen to me and nothing happens to me that doesn\u2019t happen to you.\u201d We are not separate.\n(A reminder: This would be greatly aided by a practice of Recording and Listening.)\nNow, when you\u2019ve let that in, when you\u2019ve felt the pain and seen all that arises for you in being present for all you\u2019re experiencing, ask yourself this question: \u201cWhat do I want instead for the world?\u201d\nIn the beginning this might be quite an exploration. As time goes on you\u2019ll be clearer and clearer. Do you want kindness? Compassion? Love? Respect? Appreciation?\nThe next step is where we enter \u201cA Conscious Compassionate Action Movement.\u201d Now we get to offer the world what we want for the world. What we offer could be as simple and immediate as doing chores with a cheerful attitude or applying the golden rule to driving. The point is, instead of furthering the illusion of separation, we want to stay in the process of caring and connection. We can find a person, a place, an organization, a cause, or a need to which we can contribute. Maybe it\u2019s as simple as a thank you, a smile, a kind word. Maybe it\u2019s volunteering for something you feel is important to support. Taking food to a shut-in, offering respite to a family with a sick child. Perhaps you want to join a group working to accomplish something you can see will make a difference you want to see made, signing petitions, collecting signatures, making donations. Perhaps you help people get registered to vote, call folks to encourage them to vote, drive people to the polls.\nRemember, it\u2019s not what, it\u2019s HOW. All my spiritual heroes took an interest in the world and worked to bring lovingkindness, compassion, goodness, and generosity to the world. Did they do it through hating and judging the people who were acting in cruel ways? No. They also didn\u2019t do it through an attitude of, \u201cI just want to be a good/right spiritual person, not getting upset or feeling angry, so I\u2019m going to go find a cave and wait this out.\u201d\nWhat do you say? Shall we take all that \u201cfeeling bad\u201d energy and turn it into the goodness that we want for the world? Shall we prove Margaret Mead correct once again and \u201cnever doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed it is the only thing that ever has\u201d? Shall we refuse to hide out, attempting to avoid the ugliness and instead choose Unconditional Love for the world and ourselves?\nIf there\u2019s interest I\u2019d love to continue this as a discussion. I bet among us we have thousands of ideas of ways to contribute and plenty of support for making the contributions.\nI Never Really Embraced This Process.\nA few retreats ago I had a conversation with an old, old-timer who was sliding into yet another depression. These are not the \u201cI\u2019m feeling down\u201d brand of depressions, these are the ones for which medications, even hospitalizations, are prescribed. Through years of practice, medications and hospitals are no longer needed, but the depression, often more the threat/fear of depression, remains.\n\u201cWhat are you hearing?\u201d I inquired.\n\u201cI just feel so sad. It feels as if I\u2019ll never get over being so hurt and sad about my childhood. That little child who was so mistreated is still so sad.\u201d\n(Now, as many of you doubtless know, I don\u2019t buy this for a minute, and the person I was talking to knows that, but the identification with the story was so complete there was no ability to entertain even the possibility of something other than that story being \u201cthe truth.\u201d)\n\u201cWell, how about this?\u201d I suggested. \u201cDo you have a picture of that little person? A picture of you when you were that age and experiencing that abuse?\u201d\nWhen I got an affirmative I asked if there was interest in and willingness for helping that child. \u201cOh, yes,\u201d was the immediate reply.\n\u201cOkay, here\u2019s what you do. Step 1: Take out those pictures and put them where you can see them all the time. Make some copies if you need to so you can have one on the bathroom mirror, the dashboard of the car, by your bed, on the back of your phone; everywhere you can think of to make this child a constant part of your daily life experience. Step 2: Begin to talk to her. Tell her you like having her in your awareness, that it\u2019s fun to see her face, that you like having her around. Begin to include her in what you do\u2014folding the laundry, cooking, going for a walk, taking a bike ride. Talk with her about what you\u2019re seeing, take pictures, draw pictures, make recordings. Yes? She\u2019s your companion. And, as you do this she will become more real to you as an actual person rather than the subject of stories in the head. Soon she will begin to communicate with you. Okay?\u201d\nOnce again a willing \u201cyes.\u201d\n\u201cGood. Now there will be tremendous resistance to this from the voices in conditioned mind. So, to head them off, will you text me each day and give a report about how the two of you are doing?\u201d\nFor one month I got a text every day giving reports on drawings and bedtime stories and recovered memories and making recordings and listening to them\u2026.\nA few days ago I got this text:\nAt first I thought this project was to \u2018rescue\u2019 a sad, hurt child. But she\u2019s not sad AT ALL and the hurts pass so quickly. I NEVER REALLY EMBRACED THIS PROCESS UNTIL NOW.\nI woke up this morning really wanting to live Life today. Happy danced through my morning check-in even.\nThis from a person who, before beginning this process was facing another historically suicidal depression.\nIf you are not \u201creally wanting to live Life today, if you\u2019re not happy dancing through your morning check-ins,\u201d please \u201cREALLY EMBRACE THIS PROCESS.\u201d\nInstead of leaving somebody in the grip of the unconscious self-hatred that perpetuates an illusion of separation and results in suffering, move into conscious compassionate awareness and embrace that person into Presence. The karmically conditioned impulse is to stay in identification with ego, dread and resist the experience we are having, wish it were different, and want it to go away rather than doing the work that transforms the experience.\nEMBRACE THIS PROCESS. DO THE WORK.",

        "raw_content": "The Children\u2019s Global Hygiene Foundation is an initiative to unite and empower children around the world giving them a platform from which to influence governments and their immediate community. The faces and the voices of the foundation will be children as they engage with media and advocate on issues such as health, child labour, child prostitution, and any other issues that impact on children\u2019s well being.\nWe will be asking schools around the world to nominate their own students to be ambassadors to the Children\u2019s Global Hygiene Foundation who will then join with the foundation to undertake campaigns within their own communities to influence adults and local government on hygiene and other issues relating to children.\nIn order to remain engaged with children and unite them we will use social media and the other mediums such as online games that reflect real life as it is happening in the world today. Children will be encouraged to join the GrimeStoppers Club to become community hygiene advocates attempting to influence the hygiene habits of their own family. By empowering children this way we will influence their own hygiene habits and tackle an issue that many schools around the world face which is vandalism in school toilets.\nAs a not for profit initiative one of our first global initiatives is to partner with other organisations to undertake the development of sustainable programs for the provision of hygiene systems, soap, and education programs.\nThe foundation will do this by developing, and fostering relationships between children and communities through the \u2018Adopt a school\u2019 and \u2018Adopt a village\u2019 programs. The foundation aims to inspire children to join with the founders to bring about a generation of children with natural hygiene habits.\nOur initial campaign in Australia aims to have the Australian federal government bring down hygiene legislation for schools. This will be the first demonstration of the children coming together and being able to bring about change by influencing the government. See GrimeStoppers.\nThe Global Initiative\nSchools can also adopt a third world school in their quest to help communities around the globe. Grimestoppers will raise funds to provide that school with hand-hygiene systems that attach to any plastic bottle. These systems will allow children to wash their hands four times a day for 20c per year. The children within the adopted school will also join the GrimeStoppers club becoming community hygiene warriors and receiving silicon GrimeStopper wristbands. By taking home a hand-hygiene system, they will also encourage their families to wash their hands. The mission of GrimeStoppers is to save lives.\nOver 5000 children around the world die each day from illness that\u2019s preventable through having access to soap and water.\nGrimeStoppers\u2019 child ambassadors will learn valuable lessons by reaching out and helping other children around the world. Working together we can make a difference in sanitation practices around the world.",

His mother taught him to play piano; his father taught him the many ballads and folk songs he knew. As Mr. Niles says himself: \"We made our own fun; we made our own music. We also made our own instruments. When I was quite small, my father bought me a three-string dulcimer. But when I was up in my teens and wanted a bigger and better dulcimer, my father told me to get busy and make one, I've been making my own dulcimers ever since.\"\nHis musical education was continued at the Cincinnati Conservatory of Music, from which he was later awarded an honorary Doctor of Music degree, at the Universite de Lyon at the Schola Cantorum in Paris.\nBy the time he was fifteen, Niles had taught himself , the trick of musical shorthand, and when he was eighteen he began assembling the collection of American folk which is now the largest private collection in the country. This work was interrupted by World War I during which John Jacob Niles served in the Air Corps, was resumed in the 1920's and concluded in the 1930's.\nToday he lives on his farm near Lexington, Ky. with wife and two sons. At home, most of his time is over to composition.\n\"The Carol of the Birds\" was written for my son, Thomas Michael Tolliver Niles, when he was two years of age, that is, September 22, 1941. The lyrics, which were the result of my interest in St. Francis of Assisi, were written several years earlier. I began the composition of the melodic line about the first of September, 1941, and had a finished piece of music ready for the little boy's birthday on the 22nd. (G. Schirmer, Inc.)\nIn spite of the fact that \"Jack O'Diamonds\" is a moralizing song, it is usually associated with songs concerning mighty men and gamblers. The tune of this song is employed, in part, to motivate a hymn sung in the backwoods communities of Kentucky. There are those who claim that the hymn, \"Halleluja, Thine the Glory\", came first. At this late date, no one can be sure of it. I have heard both hymn and gambling song since my earliest days. (G. Schirmer, Inc.)\nFor many years I tried to sing \"The Turtle Dove\" to a tune I had learned as a small child. In the late 1920's, I decided to write a new tune and to re-organize the text a bit. Ultimately, the new text took longer than the new tune. I began singing the present version in 1932. (Carl Fischer, Inc.)\n\"I'm in the Notion Now\" concerns the willfulness of a young girl when she decides to marry herself a husband. The first two verses of the text came to me from an old man who lived in western North Carolina. I supplied the remaining portion of the text and composed a new tune. I believe that the popularity of the song derives from the fact that the mother of the girl is outwitted. (G. Schirmer, Inc.)\nBecause of the similarity in texts and ideas, one is inclined to believe that \"Sing We the Virgin Mary\" is in some measure an adaptation of a 15th-century carol entitled \"I Sing of a Maiden\", .It was on court day in, August, 1933, in Mayfield, Ky. that I first encountered the carol, \"Sing We the Virgin Mary\". Some time jn the next year I wrote an extra verse and made some changes in the original music. Since then, the carol has heen sung very widely. (G. Schirmer, Inc.)\n\"Lulle Lullay\" presents a modernized version of the religious lullabys coming from the 15th and 16th centuries. The text is very highly concentrated, ending with the magnificent prophecy concerning the bliss Jesus Christ will bring the people of the earth. (G. Schirmer. Inc.)\nThere was a time in Jefferson County, Kentucky (and elsewhere, no doubt), when a young girl would wear a green dress or a green hairribbon to indicate that she was either disappointed in love or at least unhappy over the way her love-life was progressing. I wrote the tune and the text of \"The Black Dress\" before I was 20. (G. Schirmer, Inc.)\n\"The Cuckoo\" is a moralizing song, intended as a warning to. trusting young ladies when dealing with men-folk. In my youth, my parents told me that the song was ineffectual: it was sung vigorously every spring, and when no one paid any attention to the excellent advice in the verses, it was put away \u2014 only to be brought out and sung with the same vigor the next spring. This process is still going on. (G. Schirmer, Inc.)\nThe text of \"0 Waly, O Waly\" is an adaptation of an anonymous English poem, and the music is an original composition written especially to fit this text. The writing of the adapted text and the new music took quite a long while. I was finished on my 56th birthday, April 28, 1948. (Carl Fischer, Inc.)\n\"When I Gets Up Into Heaven\" was written in one of the dressingrooms, backstage at Grotrian Hall in Wig-Street, London, England. The time was late April, 1930. The text is based on a single line sung by a maid employed in my mother's household, some time between 1905 1910. From a study of the London programs I in 1930, I discover that \"When I Gets Up Into Heaven\" was employed as an encore in almost every performance after May 1st. (G. Schirmer, Inc.)\n\"The Frog in the Spring\" is a Niles family version of the well-known nursery rhyme concerning the frog who went a-courtin'. In this case. Miss Mouse's relatives are opposed to her marriage with Mr. Frog. Of course, she married Mr. Frog and lives to repent of her folly. If the words \"corn whiskey\" are disturbing to some listeners, they might imagine that the singer is saying \"sassafras tea\". In fact, \"sassafras tea\" must be sung In place of \"corn whiskey\" in communities, (G. Schirmer, Inc.)\n\"The Seven Joys of Mary\" started out nearly 500 years ago as \"Joys Five\". The carol has enjoyed great popularity ever since. The 15th-century text of \"Joys Five\" and other poems attributed to John Audelay (blind and deaf chaplain of Houghmond Abbey, Shropshire, England) form part of a parchment manuscript in the Bodleian Library at Oxford. This manuscript is written in three hands. The actual authorship of \"Joys Five\" is, however, in doubt.\nAs centuries passed, many joys were added, but in the community of Peach Tree, N. C. in 1933 there were only seven joys, and the carol was sung by a fiddler named Tom Barnett. The melody we sing is strictly an American creation. (G. Schirmer, Inc.)\n\"The Roving Gambler\" is one of my early childhood recollections. It must* have come into our family from the Ohio and Mississippi River steamboats. Both the text and the tune were made over from time to time, until now the song might be called an adaptation of a steamboat song. The text is based on the idea of a young woman's determination to marry the wrong man. And as the mother in the story is outwitted, the popularity of the song is again assured. (G. Schirmer, Inc.)\nAn eminent folklorist told me that the spiritual \"You Got to Cross That Lonesome Valley,\" was the result of a collaboration between white and colored Baptists in western North Carolina and eastern Tennessee. Many years ago the? refrain was being sung in white Baptist revivals as \"You've Got to Cross that Lonesome Graveyard\". A few years after the turn of this century, it was observed that some of the same churches had adopted, and adapted, certain verses usually sung in the colored revivals and added them to the original refrain. By 1933 the spiritual, as it is recorded herewith, was being sung in both white and colored revivals. There are many versions, and many effective verses sung all through the Southern states. (G. Schirmer, Inc.)\n\u2014 JOHN JACOB NILES",

        "raw_content": "Finding Denes Varjon\nPost by Ricordanza \u00bb Sat Feb 13, 2016 7:42 am\nThis season, it\u2019s been a pleasure hearing some familiar, well-established performers, such as violinist Gil Shaham and pianist Jeremy Denk. But it\u2019s even a greater pleasure to encounter an unfamiliar name and discover a musician of the first rank. Such was the experience on Tuesday evening, February 9, at the recital by the Hungarian pianist, D\u00e9nes V\u00e1rjon.\nWhat led me to select this concert when I was making my choices for the season? Initially, it was my attraction to the program:\nHaydn: Piano Sonata in E Minor, Hob. XVI:34\nSchumann: Fantasy in C Major, Op. 17\nJan\u00e1\u010dek: On an Overgrown Path\nChopin: Ballade No. 2 in F Major, Op. 38\nChopin: Mazurka in A Minor, Op. 67, No. 4\nChopin: Mazurka in C Major, Op. 24, No. 2\nChopin: Nocturne in B-Flat Major, Op. 9, No. 1\nAnd though I had never heard of the pianist, after many years of attending the Philadelphia Chamber Music Society concert series, I had come to trust their judgment that they had good reason to include V\u00e1rjon as part of their piano recital series.\nV\u00e1rjon made an immediate impression with his crisp and energetic rendition of the Haydn sonata. But his performance of the next piece cemented that positive impression and demonstrated that this was a pianist of the highest caliber.\nThe Schumann Fantasy is one of the handful of defining piano works of the Romantic era, and a personal favorite of mine. Each of the three movements has its distinctive attraction, from the yearning and passion of the first movement, to the relentless drive of the second movement, to the unearthly, almost unbearable beauty of the concluding movement. It is a supreme test for the performer, and V\u00e1rjon more than met those technical demands. But he was also able to find that elusive balance between emphasizing details through subtle changes in dynamics and rhythm, and, on the other hand, maintaining the grand sweep and momentum of this work.\nAfter intermission, V\u00e1rjon turned down the intensity level a bit with six pieces selected from Leos Jan\u00e1\u010dek\u2019s On an Overgrown Path. I vaguely recall hearing these pieces performed in a recital many years ago, but it was a good experience to hear V\u00e1rjon\u2019s distinctive rendition of these rather introspective works.\nBut just in case anyone had forgotten V\u00e1rjon\u2019s virtuosic gifts, his Chopin set was bracketed with two formidable showpieces, the second Ballade and the second Scherzo. The entire set was performed with the requisite ingredients of elegance and dramatic flair.\nSo thank you, Philadelphia Chamber Music Society, for including V\u00e1rjon in the piano series. Good choice.\nRe: Finding Denes Varjon\nPost by Ricordanza \u00bb Fri Feb 19, 2016 8:53 pm\nAccording to this review in the New York Times, Varjon's Zankel Hall recital was \"sparsely attended.\" Why was that? I can only surmise that not enough CMG members in NYC read my report on his Philadelphia recital, where he presented the same program.\nThe lesson is: be sure to hear this outstanding pianist when he comes to your neck of the woods.",

        "title": "Climate Change: The Next Generation: #ExxonKnew: Exxon\u2019s Early Knowledge of Climate Risks, Their Long Campaign of Climate Deception and Why It Matters",
        "raw_content": "#ExxonKnew: Exxon\u2019s Early Knowledge of Climate Risks, Their Long Campaign of Climate Deception and Why It Matters\nby Peter Frumhoff, director of science and policy, The Union of Concerned Scientists, October 10, 2015\nInternal Exxon memos recently brought to light through meticulous investigative reporting by InsideClimate News (ICN) show that senior company executives knew by 1978 that emissions of carbon dioxide from fossil fuels posed significant risks of disrupting the climate.\nOver the decade before NASA scientist James Hansen\u2019s 1988 testimony before Congress made the evidence of global warming front page news, Exxon invested in understanding the problem and learned that fossil fuel emissions could drive potentially catastrophic climate impacts. Exxon executives heard advice from their own scientists to take a leadership role in addressing it.\nThey firmly rejected this advice. Instead, Exxon (later, ExxonMobil, which formed in 1998) financed and engaged in a decades-long industry campaign of doubt-mongering about the scientific evidence of climate change in order to avoid regulation of their products.\nIn an op-ed published in today\u2019s New York Times, Harvard University historian of science [and geoscientist] Naomi Oreskes reminds us that Exxon chose a \u201cpath of disinformation, denial, and delay\u201d taken from the tobacco industry playbook. For decades, tobacco companies argued that responsibility for the ills of smoking rested with the smoker: individuals made a choice to smoke, and any resulting illness was their responsibility. When internal memos came to light showing that these companies knowingly spread disinformation about the health risks of their products, they ultimately led to the rejection of that argument in the courts of public opinion and law. In 1995, the U.S. Department of Justice concluded that the industry was legally culpable for knowingly spreading disinformation, bringing charges against them under the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) act.\nExxonMobil\u2019s climate responsibilities\nICN\u2019s reporting focuses a long-overdue spotlight on ExxonMobil\u2019s responsibilities for climate change. It highlights, for example, growing interest in legal action against ExxonMobil \u2013 both for failure to disclose climate risks to shareholders and financial regulators, and for manufacturing doubt to deceive the public. Pressure, they say, could \u201ccome from the U.S. Department of Justice, state attorneys general, private plaintiffs in the U.S. or abroad.\u201d\nMany of us think about responsibility for climate change as something that falls to each of us individually through the choices we make about energy use, and to governments \u2013 what the international climate negotiations refer to as the \u201ccommon but differentiated responsibilities\u201d among nations.\nIn a paper in the journal Climatic Change, geographer Richard Heede (Climate Accountability Institute), Naomi Oreskes and I argue that ExxonMobil and other large investor-owned fossil energy companies also have significant and distinctive responsibilities for climate change.\nWe emphasize that a relatively small number of large companies, including ExxonMobil, have produced the fossil energy responsible for a large proportion of the total historic emissions. These corporations commanded a high level of internal scientific and technical expertise, and they were in a position to understand the available scientific data. In Exxon\u2019s case, we now know that they not only understood the science, they contributed to it.\nAn alternative was available to them: given what they knew, they could have adjusted their business models to speed a transition to low-carbon energy by investing in low-carbon energy technologies and carbon capture, constructively engaging in policy design, and helping investors and consumers understand the need to dramatically reduce the adverse impact of their products.\nBut they did not.\nAs we note:\n\u201cBetween 1988 and 2005, ExxonMobil invested over $16 million in a network of front groups that spread misleading claims about climate science, leading to strong public condemnation from the British Royal Society. It also exploited its close relationship with the administration of President George W. Bush to pressure the administration to remove top scientists from leadership roles in the IPCC and the US National Climate Assessment and to promote federal policies driving further reliance on fossil energy.\u201d\nEven today, ExxonMobil and others continue to explore for new and increasingly more carbon-polluting sources of fossil fuels. They continue to encourage the expanded use of the products that they know \u2013 and, in Exxon\u2019s case, have known for almost forty years \u2013 are responsible for disruptive climate change. And, perhaps worst of all, ExxonMobil continues actively to sow doubt about the scientific evidence, and to discount the reality and significance of climate change as a problem.\nWhile ExxonMobil\u2019s website acknowledges that \u201crising greenhouse gas emissions pose significant risks to society and ecosystems,\u201d the company continues to fund climate disinformation through politically influential partners, including the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC), a lobbying group that organizes faux climate science briefings for US state legislators and then lobbies them to repeal state renewable energy policies. ExxonMobil executives have rejected repeated calls to leave ALEC, a step recently taken by BP and Dutch Royal Shell, which Shell acknowledged was due explicitly to their disagreement with ALEC\u2019s misrepresentation of climate science. (For several other examples, see the recent UCS Climate Deception Dossiers report.)\nA world of climate damage\nWhat makes ExxonMobil\u2019s deception so noteworthy is the extent to which its failure to act responsibly has contributed to an increase in climate risks and damages on a global scale.\nSince 1978, global annual emissions from burning fossil fuels and cement production have nearly doubled, from 5.1 gigatons of carbon (GtC) to almost 10 GtC today. Since 1988, more than half of all industrial carbon pollution since the dawn of the Industrial Revolution has been emitted.\nGiven the company\u2019s enormous scientific and technical capacity, financial resources, and influence on US and international climate policies, it is reasonable to conclude that global emissions would have been lower \u2013 perhaps, far lower \u2013 had Exxon acknowledged and publicized the risks of their products and supported science-based limits on emissions.\nSource: adapted from Frumhoff, Heede & Oreskes (2015)\nAccording to ExxonMobil\u2019s estimates, global emissions will stay high for decades to come. By 2040, the company estimates that energy-related carbon emissions will be 10 GtC, keeping emissions on a trajectory that will drive temperature increases well above levels needed limit dangerous climate change that company executive first understood nearly forty years ago.\nTheir projections of future emissions may well be right, of course \u2013 but if so, it will be in no small part the due their decades of disinformation and lobbying to avoid sensible climate policies.\nMuch time has been lost since Exxon first learned of, and could have acted upon, the climate risks of their products. Through concerted efforts it is still be possible for at least some of the major fossil fuel companies to make a transition to responsible energy companies \u2013 companies that profitably produce clean, affordable low\u2013carbon energy.\nThe revelations reported by ICN should help fuel an intensifying public focus on holding these companies accountable for their contributions to the climate problem and reducing their ability to thwart sensible climate policies. Surely, this will require scaling up a broad range of efforts \u2013 pressure from sustained shareholder actions, divestment campaigns, consumer boycotts of corporate \u2018bad actors\u2019 and litigation may all be needed to effectively change industry behavior.\nHeede, Oreskes and I argue that society should hold companies accountable to:\nStop disseminating climate disinformation, including through their lobbying groups and trade associations;\nUnequivocally support policies consistent with keeping warming below the 2 \u00b0C global temperature target;\nReduce emissions from their operations consistent with and in anticipation of such policy limits; and\nPay for a share of the costs of climate damages and of preparing for further, now unavoidable impacts.\nUCS is significantly scaling up work to drive these changes, as are many others. The world\u2019s essential transition to low-carbon energy may hinge on the scale and success of our collective efforts.\nPosted in: Fossil Fuels, Global Warming, Uncategorized Tags: Accountability, climate\nAbout the author: Peter Frumhoff is a global change ecologist and serves as chief scientist for the UCS climate campaign.

        "raw_content": "Market Recap: Case-Shiller Home Price Index Up, Construction Spending Rebounds, and No Rate Hike\nMortgage rates did not move much either way this week. The Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) met on Tuesday and Wednesday and, as expected, voted to leave interest rates unchanged. On Thursday, President Trump announced Jerome Powell would be the next Chairman of the Federal Reserve, after current Fed Chair Janet Yellen\u2019s term expires in February 2018. The Case-Shiller home price index appreciated and US construction spending rebounded slightly.\nThe S&P CoreLogic Case-Shiller home price index tracks the changes in the value of homes previously involved in two or more sales transactions in 20 major metros across the country. In August, the index increased 0.5% month-over-month and 5.9% year-over-year. Gains were driven by Seattle, Las Vegas, and San Diego, with only San Francisco showing a decrease. According to S&P Dow Jones indexes managing director David Blitzer, national \u201chome prices have reached new all-time highs.\u201d\nUS construction spending tracks the amount spent on public and private construction projects. In September, total construction spending increased 0.3% to a value of $1.22 trillion. Private construction spending slipped, and residential construction was unchanged. Public spending improved, state and local government projects increased 2.5% and federal government projects increased 3.4%.\nThe FOMC met Tuesday and Wednesday. From the meeting, the Fed upgraded its assessment of the health of the economy, but stated that recent inflation had been soft and below the 2% target rate. Most economists believe the next rate hike will take place after the December meeting, proving last year\u2019s three rate-hike projection.\nIn February, Jerome Powell will succeed Janet Yellen as Federal Reserve Chair. President Trump said the Federal Reserve was in need of \u201cstrong, sound and steady leadership,\u201d and that Powell will \u201cprovide exactly that type of leadership.\u201d Powell will likely be supportive of slow gradual interest rate hikes, like Yellen. However, Powell views deregulation more favorably, like President Trump. Yellen has the option of remaining on the Federal Reserve Board until 2024.\nSources: CNBC, MarketWatch, NPR, Reuters",

I noticed the name over at NetGalley and decided it was worth a read.\nHere is publisher\u2019s synopsis:\nMax Parkman\u2014autistic and whip-smart, emotionally fragile and aggressive\u2014is perfect in his mother\u2019s eyes. Until he\u2019s accused of murder.\nAttorney Danielle Parkman knows her teenage son Max\u2019s behavior has been getting worse\u2014using drugs and lashing out. But she can\u2019t accept the diagnosis she receives at a top-notch adolescent psychiatric facility that her son is deeply disturbed. Dangerous.\nUntil she finds Max, unconscious and bloodied, beside a patient who has been brutally stabbed to death.\nTrapped in a world of doubt and fear, barred from contacting Max, Danielle clings to the belief that her son is innocent. But has she, too, lost touch with reality? Is her son really a killer?\nWith the justice system bearing down on them, Danielle steels herself to discover the truth, no matter what it is. She\u2019ll do whatever it takes to find the killer and to save her son from being destroyed by a system that\u2019s all too eager to convict him.\nI was initially frustrated. The lead character, Max\u2019s mom Danielle, wasn\u2019t a very sympathetic character to me. She seemed pushy and impatient and grating in many ways. This, and the fact that I was reading it in short spurts most of the time, made the story languish.\nBut once you get to the bloody scene in the hospital things begin to pick up and there are a number of twists and turns that keep you guessing. And of course, Danielle is vindicated to some degree (I won\u2019t spoil it any more than that).\nIn the end I found it a story where the \u201chook\u201d is greater than the prose \u2013 the creative storyline better than the writing that describes it. Once the story picked up some steam it was entertaining for the most part \u2013 I wanted to keep reading to find out what happened \u2013 but it left you kind flat at the end.\nAntoinette van Heugten, autism, Fiction, NetGalley, thriller\n\u2190 The Ghosts of Cannae: Hannibal and the Darkest Hour of the Roman Republic by Robert O'Connell\nBirthmarked by Caragh O'Brien \u2192",

        "title": "Nat Hentoff (biographical details)",
        "raw_content": "Nat Hentoff (10 June 1925 \u2013 7 January 2017) used to teach journalism at New York University and the New School.\nAmong his many awards is the National Press Foundation Award for Distinguished Contributions to Journalism, the University of Arizona department of Journalism award for Distinguished Service in Support of Freedom of the Press and the American Bar Association Silver Gavel Award for his coverage of the criminal justice system. His popular writing also includes novels for children and adults, biographies and commentaries on jazz, politics and education.\nHe has been described as \"a nationally renowned authority on the First Amendment and the Bill of Rights\". A journalist and author of several books, his articles have appeared in several US journals, including the Washington Times (see an article about the close relationship between the owner of that newspaper and various right-wing elements in US society), the Village Voice and the Jewish World Review.\nComment on Hentoff's attack on this database\nIn his column which appeared on 27 October 2003 in the Washington Times, Hentoff attacked this database (Palestine: Information with Provenance). His attack was prompted by his reading this article by Gil Troy. See our comment on Troy's piece -- it will serve as a response to Hentoff.\nMr. Hentoff is now well into his 70s. Though he grew up in Boston, his psychology must have been affected by news of the Holocaust. Furthermore, a writer as credible as Chomsky, who is only a few years younger than Hentoff, relates that, as recently as the 1950s, there were traces of anti-Semitism in the Boston area. Thus, it is undertandable that Hentoff may be fearful of anti-Semitism. Nevertheless, it is always disappointing to see how the spectre of anti-Semitism is used to try to smear human rights activists who seek to help improve the lot of the Palestinian people.\nAsad AbuKhalil reports (8 January 2017):\nNat Hentoff, dead\nI have been reading Nat Hentoff for years but not necessarily with admiration or approval. I have always thought that his stances on civil liberties and foreign policy are wishy washy at best. And as people may become more courageous and outspoken over time, Hentoff becomes less outspoken and less courageous. He was rather critical of the Israeli invasion of 1982 (how much courage does it take to oppose an invasion which managed to massacre at least 20,000 Lebanese, Palestinians, and Syrians in a matter of a few months, really?) and he has criticized repressive \"tendencies\" of American Zionists on a few occasions. But he was also keen on not breaking with Zionism and Zionists. His comments were always tempered and qualified. But most importantly, this is a man who championed US Bush invasion of Iraq in 2003 and never apologized for it. He became more establishment and less courageous over time. He was certainly more outspoken when I first came to US when he was still at the Village Voice, if I remember correctly. I mean, I accept his stance on abortion but this was not his only inconsistency.\nMaterial in this database by Nat Hentoff\nSelect material by Nat Hentoff\nSearch among material by Nat Hentoff\nSelect outlets which published material by Nat Hentoff\nWhat others say about Nat Hentoff",

        "title": "Water Purifier: H20 Facts You Should Know",
        "raw_content": "Water Purifier: H20 Facts You Should Know\nTo understand how effective a water purifier is and be able to accurately compare one system to another, you need to know what the product claims mean. But let's be honest, unless you're a math whiz or a water engineer, the information can seem overwhelming and confusing. Ever wake up in a cold sweat after having a dream that you're back in school facing an unexpected math test about concepts you don't know? If so, then this article was written especially for you. Read on, and in a few minutes you'll feel like a water purifier expert.\nWater and Your Body\nWe all depend on clean water to live. Approximately 60 percent of our weight is water, our organs are composed of water, and every system in our bodies is dependent upon water. Things like digestion, body temperature modulation, respiration, blood regulation, cell renewal, joint lubrication, as well as the ability to flush out toxins and excess fat rely on proper hydration. It's recommended that men consume approximately 3 liters of water a day, while women need 2.2 liters. But your lifestyle, overall health, and the climate where you live will influence what's right for you. Of course, not all your water intake comes from only drinking water; when you drink juice, eat fruit, or have soup, you're getting water. Surprisingly, even though we know the importance of staying hydrated, many of us are dehydrated without even realizing it. Feeling sleepy and run down? That's often a sign of dehydration. Two basic rules of thumb to determine if you're dehydrated are 1) you should feel thirsty, and 2) your urine should look pale yellow (unless you're taking B-complex vitamins, which can cause a bright yellow color).\nThe Dire Effects of Contaminated Water\nDid you know that 2.1 billion people didn\u2019t have access to clean drinking water in 2015? Tragically, it's estimated that more than 840,000 people die each year from diarrhea caused by drinking unsafe water and having poor hygiene. Water scarcity isn't limited to third-world countries either. Increased urbanization, manufacturing, pollution, natural disasters, and climate change are making water conservation a growing worldwide concern, which means all of us could someday be affected.\nWater Purification\u2014One of the Answers\nWhen safe drinking water isn't available, the results can be catastrophic. Effective water purification methods remove harmful contaminants such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, lead, algae, toxic chemicals, pesticides, and other harmful substances to make it completely safe to drink and use. Also, purification often improves the look, smell, and taste of water. It\u2019s important to note, however, that not all water purification systems are created equal, and some aren\u2019t very effective in removing all of these harmful substances. Every water purification manufacturer makes strong claims, stating their products eliminate practically all harmful elements. You'll see claims that promise anywhere from a 99.99 percent reduction of microbes and other contaminants to a 99.9999 percent reduction. And while those two numbers may seem like they mean the same thing\u2014after all, both are a smidge less than 100%, right? WRONG! In the world of water purification science, the difference between these two numbers is huge.\nUnderstanding the Numbers\u2014It's Not So Hard!\nWhen learning more about water purification, you'll often see the term \"log reduction.\" At first, this may seem confusing, especially when you're probably used to dealing with percentages, but there's a simple explanation. Scientists deal with enormously long numbers, so they use abbreviations whenever they can (aka scientific notations) to make long numbers easier to manage and to understand. A logarithmic scale or a log scale is simply the abbreviation method used by microbiologists when they describe decreases in microorganisms. The key thing to remember about a log scale is that it uses factors of 10. For example, if a bacterium has been reduced by 99.99 percent and then gets reduced even more, additional nines would have to be added (99.999 percent, 99.9999 percent, and so on), which would be needlessly cumbersome. Using a log scale is a more efficient way of working with data.\nThat's because a log reduction is concisely presented as a 1 log reduction, a 2 log reduction, a 3 log reduction, etc. If you're still confused, look at the chart below. You'll be instantly enlightened!\nHandy Log Reduction Chart\n1 log reduction means the number of germs is reduced 10 times or 90 percent\n2 log reduction means the number of germs is reduced 100 times or 99 percent\n3 log reduction means the number of germs is reduced 1000 times or 99.9 percent\n4 log reduction means the number of germs is reduced 10,000 times or 99.99 percent\n5 log reduction means the number of germs is reduced 100,000 times or 99.999 percent\n6 log reduction means the number of germs is reduced 1,000,000 times or 99.9999 percent\n6 Log Reduction\u2014The Gold Standard\nRemember the example in the Water Purification paragraph? A 99.99 percent reduction in microbes vs. a 99.9999 percent reduction? If you look at the chart, you'll see the former is a 4 log reduction, while the latter is a 6 log reduction. That's a difference of 100 times, which is significant when you consider the CFUs (Colony Forming Units\u2014the number of harmful bacteria or fungi cells with the ability to multiply) that are left behind.\nA 6 log reduction is considered the gold standard in water purification; it's what companies strive for but few ever achieve because of the difficulty. To reach this standard, a reduction of 1,000,000 CFUs must be decreased to 1 CFU or less. In a recent internal study, the EcoSphere Water Purifier performed even better than a 6 log reduction, reducing 6,000,000 CFUs to LESS THAN 1 CFU, whereas many purification units can only claim a 99.99 percent or a 4 log reduction. Furthermore, some purification units can only deliver a 99.9 percent or 3 log reduction of CFUs, meaning water from these units will have 1,000 times the amount of microorganisms compared to the EcoSphere Water Purifier's output water.\nAdditional Terms to Know\nWhen it comes to water purification and microbial log reduction, you'll see the use of the following words: sanitation, disinfection, and sterilization. Although it seems as if they mean the same thing, they have distinctly different definitions.\nSanitation offers the least effective reduction of contamination, with 99.9 percent or a 3 log reduction. So out of 1,000,000 microorganisms, 990,000 will be destroyed, leaving behind many microorganisms that are ready to reproduce.\nDisinfection is a step up in microbe/contaminant reduction with a range of 99.99 percent up to 99.999 percent or a 5 log reduction. Out of one million, it's possible that up to 999,990 microorganisms will be destroyed, but some viable, ready-to-multiply microbes will be left behind.\nSterilization occurs when all microorganisms and their spores are destroyed, which is a 6 log or 99.9999 percent reduction. Statistically, zero viable organisms survive. The Ecosphere Water Purifier is at this level of efficiency.\nIf you've read this far, you hopefully have a better understanding of water purification claims, which should make choosing the best system for you and your family a bit easier.

        "title": "Paul Simon: Graceland (25th Anniversary Edition) | Daily Vault",
        "raw_content": "Sony Legacy, 2012\nhttp://www.paulsimon.com\nREVIEW BY: Curtis Jones\nTwenty six years after the original release, Sony has released a 25th anniversary version of Paul Simon\u2019s Graceland. But not only that, they gave true album lovers something they often desire from favorite artists: context.\nUp until the 1980s, Paul Simon had a decent career. Certainly his work with Art Garfunkel was more memorable, but a string of \u201870s hit kept his profile up. The \u201880s hadn\u2019t been so nice for him, as his 1980 film One Trick Pony suggests, it was a tough era for folk singers to compete in an age of disco and then increasingly electronically infused music. His 1983 album Hearts And Bones pretty much bombed, so things heading into the mid \u201880s were not looking up.\nBut somewhere in the intervening years, Paul Simon received and fell in love with cassette tape of South African music. So much was his enchantment that he had his record company track down the musicians and he headed to South Africa to play with them. And with that, the biggest selling album of Simon\u2019s career (with over 14 million copies sold) was born.\nThe substance of the Graceland album doesn\u2019t need to be rehashed here. It is an excellent album by itself. In an early mainstream example of sampling, Simon went to South Africa, defying the cultural ban that had been put in place by the UN due to apartheid, and played with black South African musicians. He directed them to basically do the music they usually played, changing things here and there, and creating rhythm and backing tracks over a short span of a few days. He then brought those tracks back to the US, where engineers edited and moved them around to marry them with lyrics that Simon was hastily writing to fit them.\nAfter sessions in Johannesburg, London, Los Angeles, Louisiana, and New York, Graceland provided a gloriously eclectic dish of world music that could be gobbled up by nearly anyone. The entire album, with the exception of Ladysmith Black Mambazo\u2019s a cappella \u201cHomeless,\u201d is intensely rhythmic. I always knew this intrinsically, but the production is such that the rhythm and fantastic music are just there, with a frosting of dazzling Simon lyrics that paint incredible pictures and put you in the story, almost without realizing that the song is taking you there. But when I popped my review copy of the album into my car\u2019s CD player and headed down the road, I kept looking in the rearview mirror at each track change and watched my 18 month old son start moving his head back and forth to the music, or side to side for the fast numbers. This is a boy who takes rhythm seriously, and nearly every song made that kid move.\nThe CD rerelease carries all of the original tunes with the addition of early and demo versions of \u201cHomeless,\u201d \u201cDiamond on the Soles of Her Shoes,\u201d \u201cAll Around the World or The Myth of Fingerprints,\u201d \u201cYou Can Call Me Al,\u201d and \u201cCrazy Love.\u201d Plus, the final track is a verbal explanation of how the song \u201cGraceland\u201d came to be. But the real cream of this rerelease is a full length documentary of the evolution, production, and reaction to the album.\nWhen Graceland was released I was three years old, so by the time I \u201cdiscovered\u201d Paul Simon\u2019s solo catalog as a teenager I just listened to the album for what it was. The DVD documentary \u201cUnder African Skies\u201d reminds those around at the time, and educates new fan about the terrible issues surrounding the treatment of blacks in South Africa under the apartheid regime, and the discomfort that Simon created for some by traveling to South Africa to record with black musicians. The documentary uses archival footage to show how the South African tracks were recorded, how Simon created the songs after returning to the US, and how the album was criticized for breaking the \u201ccultural boycott\u201d imposed on South Africa at the time in response to apartheid. The documentary is really a vindication of Simon\u2019s decision to go to South Africa, and the modern-day interviews of those who had opposed Simon\u2019s trip in the \u201880s still show the futility of the position they took against the project. Essentially, the documentary makes the case that Simon\u2019s use of black South African musicians for Graceland did more than any UN resolution could, because it introduced the beauty of their culture to the world. Those who opposed his decision were not punishing the white regime, but actually the black musicians who wanted to work and were given an audience far wider than they could ever have imagined. They would in effect be punished twice; once for having to live under apartheid, and then for not being allowed to play with Simon in the name of a boycott. It is clear on which side the documentary comes down.\nThe 25th anniversary package is worthwhile. The album is superb, but the documentary is eye opening. And it\u2019s not just your throwaway bonus DVD disc that gets packaged for box sets. It is a legitimate full-length movie that does its homework. If Graceland could get better, this is the way to do it.\n\u00a9 2012 Curtis Jones and The Daily Vault. All rights reserved. Review or any portion may not be reproduced without written permission.

        "raw_content": "I do not always agree with Frank Furedi, but he makes some important points here, and those on the day that the Conservative Party attacks Jeremy Corbyn's \"economic nationalism\" because he wants to end British Government contracts for foreign firms:\nThe photos of US president Donald Trump romancing his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin at their meeting in Helsinki tell us something very important about international relations today.\nGeopolitical affairs have always been a byzantine enterprise. However, things have become even more complicated in recent years because of two interlocking developments.\nThe first is the de-nationalisation of significant sections of the Western ruling classes, and the second is the internationalisation of the Culture War.\nTrump and Putin, despite both suffering from limited linguistic skills, speak in a similar language. They are both unapologetic nationalists with a fairly strong sense of their national interest.\nAnd despite the national rivalry between Russia and the US, both presidents are on the same side in the newly globalised Culture War.\nAs the Telegraph\u2019s Tim Stanley noted, \u2018When Trump sees Putin, he doesn\u2019t think about the Cold War \u2013 he sees a conservative champion of civilisation\u2019. Many American conservatives see Putin as a potential ally in the Culture War.\nIn Europe, too, opponents of identity politics, multiculturalism and EU federalism in Italy, France, Germany and elsewhere tend to have a positive attitude towards Russia.\nParadoxically, Russia, a nation with historical links to the Byzantine East, now seems to be more adept at promoting Western civilisation than many of the leaders of the Western world itself.\nOn the other side of the West\u2019s political spectrum, those who oppose Trump\u2019s political and cultural outlook are also hostile to Russia.\nBut unlike during the Cold War, when Western observers denounced the Soviet Union for its Communist ideology, today\u2019s opponents of Russia condemn its conservative, authoritarian worldview.\nConsider then US president Barack Obama\u2019s high-profile address to the youth of Europe in March 2014.\nIn that speech, he linked his criticism of Russia\u2019s occupation of Crimea with his opposition to certain, apparently \u2018backward\u2019 cultural values back home in the US. He celebrated the politics of identity and permissiveness, and denounced the \u2018older, more traditional view of power\u2019.\nHe said that, \u2018instead of targeting our gay and lesbian brothers and sisters\u2019 \u2013 as Russia does \u2013 \u2018we can use our laws to protect their rights\u2019. In essence, Russia served as a proxy for Obama\u2019s attack on his traditionalist adversaries in the US.\nThe domestic Culture War increasingly plays itself out in the realm of America v Russia. It is likely that when Trump denied that Russia meddled in the 2016 US presidential election he was likewise motivated by a desire to settle scores with his opponents in the domestic political sphere.\nThe Culture War goes global\nIn response to the anti-traditionalist values taking hold in the US and much of the West, Putin has sought to assume the role of the global leader who\u2019s willing to fight for the Christian, traditional way of life. In turn, Western diplomats criticise Russia for its nationalist, patriarchal, sexist culture.\nIn 2012 President Putin explicitly expressed his conviction that \u2018cultural self-awareness, spiritual and moral values, [and] codes of values are an area of intense competition\u2019.\nHe has said that the struggle to \u2018influence the worldviews of entire ethnic groups, the desire to subject them to one\u2019s will, to force one\u2019s system of values and beliefs upon them, is an absolute reality, just like the fight for mineral resources that many nations, ours included, experienced\u2019.\nPutin wants to cultivate an image of Russia as a moral crusader fighting for the survival of human civilisation.\nIn his annual state of the nation speech in 2013, he responded to Western criticisms on Russia\u2019s attitude to homosexuality by lamenting the decline of morality in the West.\nHe drew attention to what he clearly views as the morally disorienting impact of Western-style social engineering:\n\u2018This destruction of traditional values from above not only entails negative consequences for society\u2026 [it] is also inherently anti-democratic because it is based on an abstract notion and runs counter to the will of the majority of people.\u2019\nHe claimed that traditional family values were the only effective defence against new values that are \u2018genderless and infertile\u2019.\nAlthough he was speaking to the Russian public, Putin\u2019s denunciation of \u2018genderless and infertile\u2019 lifestyles was also aimed at a global audience.\nJust a few days before he delivered that speech, an influential Kremlin-linked think-tank published a report titled Putin: World Conservatism\u2019s New Leader. It promoted Putin as the global saviour of traditional values.\nThe report said ordinary people across the world are yearning for the stability and security offered by traditional values. It said people regard multiculturalism with suspicion.\nDmitry Abzalov, a spokesman for the think-tank, told the press that \u2018it is important for most people to preserve their way of life, their lifestyle, their traditions\u2019, and because of that they \u2018tend toward conservatism\u2019.\nPutin is by no means the first major Russian figure to question the West\u2019s commitment to its own civilisation. Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, in his famous address to students at Harvard University in 1978, put things even more bluntly.\nThis Russian dissident, then an exile living in the US, was appalled by the nihilism and weariness that dominated Western societies.\n\u2018The Western world has lost its civil courage, both as a whole and separately, in each country\u2019, he warned his Harvard audience.\nHe observed that \u2018such a decline in courage is particularly noticeable among the ruling groups and the intellectual elite\u2019.\nSolzhenitsyn\u2019s lament for an elite that had lost its way highlighted a problem that America\u2019s media and cultural institutions preferred to ignore.\nForty years later, the estrangement of Western elites from their own civilisation has become one of the big issues of our time.\nSome critics of Trump went so far as to accuse him of treason because he dared to criticise members of American institutions in front of Putin.\nTrump clearly felt that he had more in common with his Russian interlocutor than with his political opponents back home.\nAnd yet this means his behaviour is no different to that of Britain\u2019s Remainer policymakers and politicians who openly side with their EU colleagues and do their best to undermine and humiliate their Brexiteer compatriots.\nThey always make clear that they have more in common with their co-thinkers in Europe than they do with the alleged Little Englanders and xenophobes who voted for Brexit.\nSome even threaten to leave the UK after Brexit and settle in one of the more \u2018enlightened\u2019 EU-affiliated states.\nThe divisions exposed by Brexit and the Culture War more broadly highlight a rarely discussed but dramatic political development: the de-nationalisation, and maybe even the de-territorialisation, of much of the West\u2019s political class.\nSuperficially, this trend towards the de-nationalisation of the elites seems to be a consequence of the process of globalisation.\nCommentators argue that as global networks displace national ones, supranational institutions naturally attract the best brains.\nEntrepreneurs, scientists and academics begin to think more and more globally, and therefore become far more casual, and sometimes even disdainful, towards their national affiliations.\nHowever the de-nationalisation of the elites is not driven simply by globalisation. More importantly, the elites feel politically and culturally estranged from their own national institutions.\nThey find it easier to get things done through international networks. Many English MEPs feel they have more in common with a French colleague than they do with the voters who elected them.\nBack home, the cultural elites are increasingly detached from the lives and outlooks of less fortunate citizens.\nOne of the first commentators to draw attention to this trend towards the de-nationalisation of the elites was the American political philosopher Christopher Lasch. He wrote in 1995:\n\u2018Those who covet membership in the new aristocracy of brains tend to congregate on the coast, turning their back on the heartland and cultivating ties with the international market in fast-moving money, glamour, fashion, and popular culture. It is a question whether they think of themselves as Americans at all. Patriotism, certainly, does not rank very high in their hierarchy of virtues.\u2019\nLasch noted that, in stark contrast to their lack of enthusiasm for patriotism, this new aristocracy readily embraced the values of multiculturalism and diversity.\nThrough the Culture Wars, this detachment of the elites from the institutions of the nation has intensified.\nSince the 1990s, the psychic distance between the elite outlook and national sensibilities has been widening.\nThe cultural elites are drawn more and more towards identity politics, but they regard their national identity as no big deal.\nThose sections of the elite that are charged with overseeing international affairs and foreign policy often share the cultural outlook of their peers in the political establishment.\nAnd since their sensibility, like the rest of the elite\u2019s sensibility, is increasingly sympathetic to the transnational rather than the national, their ability to pursue the national interest in global affairs is hampered. Their behaviour as geopolitical actors becomes unpredictable and confused.\nThe tragedy of half-baked humanitarian intervention in Syria serves as testimony to the mess that can be created by a diplomacy that finds it difficult to distinguish between transnational cultural rhetoric and national interests.\nWhen diplomacy and geopolitics come to be entwined with the Culture War and identity politics, the outcome will not be good.\nThe polarised political landscape that the Culture Wars have created at home is bad enough. But when such cultural division is internationalised, drawing in more and more foreign actors, it can have far more explosive consequences.\nCultural disputes over lifestyles and values are extremely difficult to resolve because they are so intimately linked to basic moral questions about right and wrong.\nSuch conflicts are rarely susceptible to pragmatic solutions, and can therefore easily spiral out of control.\nTo avoid this happening more in global affairs, we need to find a way back to a geopolitics that openly avows national interests rather than heated cultural rhetoric.\nBut for that, we will need political leaders who see themselves first and foremost as leaders of their nations.",

Since the arrival of Miss Lowrie in the school year 1921-22, steady progress has been made in the field of every sport so that at the present time there is a personal appeal to every peppy, alert girl in hockey, basketball, hiking, tennis, track, swimming and volleyball.' [Volleyball is a new addition to the Big Six program.]; Good sportsmanship, posture and pose are the qualities that Miss Mary Sperry and Mrs. Katherine Junkin, as assistants, emphasize in every sport. Ruddy health, vitality, and a joyous sense of living are the awards to every girl taking part. It is a certainty that the organization of Women's Athletics will make many more strides of progress in the future. Plans of the immediate future are now under discussion.; [The illustration that leads this section on Women's Athletics shows the Greek Myth of Atalanta and Hippomenes. Atalanta was abandoned at birth and raised by a she-bear, then hunters who found her. She became a great hunter and a fast runner. But Atlanta did not want to give up the freedom she had in the woods. She consented to marry only if a man could outrun her in a race. Many men tried but none could keep up with her. She was finally beaten by Hippomenes, who was given three golden apples by Venus. He threw the golden apples, one by one, in front of her, so that she would stop to pick them up. In this way, he beat her to the line, and they were married.]; [Underneath this section is a set of three photos enclosed in a rectangle titled 'What Women Call Athletics.' One photo has a group of women siting on a fence together under the caption 'Keep Out'. One women in the center has a sign, but it is hard to read. The middle photo is of the women playing hockey. Caption says 'Slow?' There is a third photo on the right of a group of women siting on a fence rail. 'Just Restin' This may play on several factors: Separation of women, No men allowed. Making fun of women's sports of hockey and hiking. The title seems a bit antagonistic, or may be making fun of the activities and how they are done.]\nKeywords Women's athletics; Parody; Women's physical education department; Department chairperson, Women's physical education\nAdd tags for Women's Athletics, Atalanta and the Golden Apples, 1925-1926\nPost a Comment for Women's Athletics, Atalanta and the Golden Apples, 1925-1926",

        "raw_content": "You are here: The Crew >> Ranks & Ratings\nTo understand the ranks of the officers and the ratings of the enlisted men, we must first consider the organization of those who served on the SHIELDS.\nSHIELDS, like all Fletcher class destroyers, was wonderfully designed to perform a wide variety of tasks. Her main battery of five inch guns could bombard the shore or shoot down aircraft aided by her 40 mm mounts. Her torpedoes could sink the largest enemy vessel. Her depth charges could send an enemy submarine to the bottom. SHIELDS was a versatile man-of-war capable of performing a wide variety of tasks as directed by her captain, and as assisted by her executive officer. To carry out these tasks her other officers and men were assigned to a variety of departments.\nThe gunnery department was the only reason for the SHIELDS. That department was responsible for maintenance and operation of her guns, torpedoes and depth charges and the means to direct them referred to as \u201cfire-control\u201d.\nThe operations department provided intelligence for strategic and tactical purposes. The officers and men of this department handled operational matters including: communications, keeping track of \u201cbogies\u201d (un-identified air craft) and \u201cskunks\u201d (unidentified surface contacts).\nThe engineering department was responsible for moving SHIELDS through the ocean to a place where the gunnery department could do its job. Secondary tasks were: providing fresh water; keeping food refrigerated; maintaining the two motor whale boats and much other auxiliary machinery.\nThe supply department was responsible for making life on board as comfortable as possible. Tasks included: feeding the crew; washing uniforms and linens; checking the health of the crew; cutting hair, and last but not least paying wages.\nThe duties of each department were far broader than outlined above, but this hopefully gives an idea of the areas of responsibility of each department making it better able to understand the ratings.\nRanks and Ratings\nCommissioned officers have ranks; enlisted men have ratings. One can tell the rank of an officer by looking at the number of gold stripes on his sleeve, more stripes mean higher rank. One can tell the rating of an enlisted man by looking at the patch on his left arm; more stripes mean a higher rating. The presence of an eagle on the shoulder of an enlisted man means he is a petty officer, also called a \u201cnon-commissioned officer\u201d. Some sailors refer to becoming a petty officer as \u201cgetting a crow on my shoulder\u201d. The bird is, of course, an eagle, not a crow, but this minor amount of disrespect is always tolerated. Underneath the talons of the eagle is a symbol of the rating. For example the symbol for a boatswain mate (BM) is two crossed eighteenth century anchors.\nClick either OFFICERS or ENLISTED to read more...",

        "raw_content": "{Blog Tour} Book Review + Author Guest Post: Wednesdays in the Tower by Jessica Day George\nA castle that is constantly rearranging itself, and a young royal family sworn to protect it... Celie, Rolf, and their beloved Castle Glower are back in this exciting sequel.\nStrange things are afoot in Castle Glower: new rooms, corridors, and even stables keep arriving, even when they aren't needed. Celie's brother Bran, the new Royal Wizard, has his hands full cataloguing an entire storeroom full of exotic and highly dangerous weapons, while Celie has her hands full . . . raising the creature that hatches from a giant egg she finds! Will they be able to find out what's making the Castle behave this way in time?\nI'm a huge Jessica Day George fangirl, so I was so excited to read this! I was overjoyed to discover that Wednesdays in the Tower had just as much quirky fun as the first one, but this time taking them on an all-new adventure.\nCelie is a wonderful character. She\u2019s clever and witty, and princessy without the pomp. She\u2019s the kind of girl everyone wants to be friends with. In this book we get to know Celie much better, and watch her mature as chance thrusts a baby griffin into her hands. She makes a wonderful mother to Rufus, all while keeping him hidden from the other residents of the castle.\nI had so much fun exploring Castle Glower in all of its glory. New things popping up and a mystery bigger than anyone realizes keep both Celie and the reader on their toes. All the new rooms were incredibly creative, and had me wishing that I could visit Castle Glower.\nWednesdays in the Tower was a light, fresh, and thoroughly enjoyable sequel to such a fun Middle-Grade novel that promises to hook readers.\nGuest Post on Creating Castle Glower from Jessica Day George\nI absolutely love coming up with new rooms for Castle Glower. I\u2019m not usually one of those writers whose characters do and say things on their own, but Castle Glower is the exception. It has rooms even I don\u2019t know about, and I feel like I\u2019m discovering them right along with Celie. Oh, a bouncy room? Neat! A secret passage? Even better! I did try to make sure that nothing was too convenient, that the Castle didn\u2019t just offer Celie rooms and corridors before she even knew she needed them. Many of the rooms and passages in WEDNESDAYS IN THE TOWER were mentioned but never used in TUESDAYS AT THE CASTLE, and vice versa. I loved trying to find a way to describe the bouncy-floored room, without using the word \u201ctrampoline\u201d which sounded too modern, but that was also kind of a challenge. How do I say, She\u2019s jumping on a trampoline! without actually saying that word? I loved building a playroom for Rufus, and exploring the holiday feasting hall, particularly once it was full of treasures from around the Castle. I do have a hard time keeping track of what rooms are where, and I have to draw terrible little maps that only make sense to me in order to keep a handle on the Castle and what it\u2019s up to!\nJessica Day George earned a BA in Humanities/Comparative Literature from Brigham Young University, where she enjoyed classes in Pottery and Old Norse, and dutifully forced herself to take Algebra and Biology. Originally from Idaho, she now resides in Salt Lake City, Utah, with her husband and three young children.\nFind her on Twitter, Facebook and Goodreads\nLabels: 5 Star, Blog Tour, Book Review, Jessica Day George\nRandi M May 9, 2013 at 9:56 AM\nGreat review! I'm glad this was a fun sequel because I loved Tuesdays at the Castle. I look forward to catching up with Celie, the Castle, and the gang again soon. :)\nOh, I'm a HUGE Jessica Day George fangirl too! I've been in love with her writing ever since I read Dragon Slippers years and years ago. I absolutely ADORED Tuesday's at the Castle, and I'm super glad to hear that Wednesday's at the Castle is just as good! Great review, Debz!",

        "raw_content": "Throwback Thursday: Four great remakes\nMost film remakes are inferior to their original counterparts and end up reminding us why we love the first versions more. However, a few remakes surpass the originals by reinterpreting them in fascinating ways or by adding newfound depth to their simpler stories. The Daily Texan compiled a list of four of those remakes.\nJohn Carpenter\u2019s update of 1951\u2019s \u201cThe Thing from Another World\u201d is startlingly sinister and grotesque. More faithful to John W. Campbell Jr.\u2019s novella \u201cWho Goes There?\u201d than the original film, \u201cThe Thing\u201d is about a group of scientists in Antarctica who encounter an alien that can take over and imitate other life forms. The scientists must defeat the creature before it can reach and consume human civilization.\n\u201cThe Thing\u201d preys on viewers\u2019 paranoia as the characters attempt to weed out the alien from their own ranks, and, when the time comes, unleash it with stomach-churning animatronic effects. Kurt Russell and Keith David play likable heroes in a movie that leaves viewers unsure of whom to trust, and when \u201cThe Thing\u201d questions whether either character has been infected, it pulls us closer to the edge of our seats.\n\u201cThe Thing\u201d is one of the most compelling horror films ever crafted, a classic that has long since overshadowed the 1951 original.\nThe 1986 version of \u201cThe Fly\u201d and the 1958 original deal with a scientist\u2019s transformation into a fly after their atoms are mixed during a teleportation experiment. Whereas the scientist\u2019s transformation was sudden in the original, David Cronenberg\u2019s remake draws out the process, chronicling scientist Seth Brundle\u2019s (Jeff Goldblum) gradual descent into madness as the fly\u2019s instincts and body parts consume him.\nGoldblum\u2019s demented performance is supported by Oscar-winning makeup and horrifying special effects, and the story is a rich character study and a grim exploration of the dangers of unrestrained ambition. Cronenberg makes us feel sorry for Brundle, and over the course of the picture, we grow to like him for his talent and drive. But as \u201cThe Fly\u201d progresses, it becomes apparent that Brundle won\u2019t ever return to normal.\nThe original \u201cKing Kong,\u201d a technical marvel when it was released in 1933, finds itself outclassed compared to Peter Jackson\u2019s epic 2005 remake. While the three-hour running time is excessive, Jackson\u2019s take on the Skull Island adventure is spectacular, complete with imaginative world building and an expansive scope.\nThe film\u2019s centerpiece is its convincingly animated monster gorilla, with its movements and expressions performed by motion-capture extraordinaire Andy Serkis. Unlike his original counterpart, who was a brute merely infatuated with damsel-in-distress Ann Darrow, 2005\u2019s Kong develops a friendship with her (Naomi Watts), adding emotional dimension and tragedy to the final showdown atop the Empire State Building. Beauty kills the beast in both versions. Jackson makes us wish she didn\u2019t.\nMartin Scorsese brings 2002 Hong Kong crime drama \u201cInfernal Affairs\u201d stateside with \u201cThe Departed,\u201d trading the triad for Boston gangsters. The plot remains mostly the same, balancing the stories of an undercover cop (Leonardo DiCaprio) infiltrating the network of a crime boss (Jack Nicholson) and the crime boss\u2019s mole (Matt Damon) in the Boston police.\nDiCaprio, Nicholson and Damon are just three members of a talented ensemble featuring Martin Sheen and Mark Wahlberg. These fine performers elevate \u201cThe Departed\u201d above other pictures of its kind, and they get to do it while cutting loose with countless F-bombs.\n\u201cThe Departed\u201d is steeped in working class Irish-American Catholic culture and explores the masculine desire for the approval of father figures. The film also offers engrossing insight into deception of the self and of others, and as the characters find themselves drawn into an increasingly dangerous clash of cunning, the game of moles and rats becomes a true white knuckle affair indeed.",

        "title": "The Crazy Dream Blog: The Calling by Alison Bruce (ARC)",
        "raw_content": "Synopsis: Kaye Whiting went to buy a birthday present and didn't come back. When DC Goodhew hears the recording of the mysterious call made to the station, informing them that Kaye is still alive and that a man named Peter Walsh is responsbile, he knows it's more than a prank call. Why does Mr. Walsh not seem surprised to see Goodhew at his doorstep, and who is the woman who goes to the same diner every day, just so she can watch Mr. Walsh walk out of his building with his new lover?\nSo this won't be my typical review, as it took me more than four months to actually finish this novel. It's not that The Calling wasn't a good story, it just didn't draw me in as much as I would've liked. I had no problem putting it aside to read about ten other books that did seem to draw me in more. There were a ton of characters in this novel, all of which had their own point of views (POVs). Normally, I don't mind numerous POVs, but there really wasn't any segregation to tell you it had changed. You would read twenty paragraphs for one person, then suddenly two paragraphs would go to another and then it would revert back to the original character. There were times I had to go back and reread because I didn't quite realize it had switched and I was left wondering, \"Wait. How'd he know that?\"\nAs for the story, the plot was interesting enough but I trully never felt connected to any of the characters, and I really didn't care about what happened to them whether they were murdered, trying to commit suicide, a detective investigating the situation, or some other randomly chosen character. Maybe this was because there were so many, but I didn't seem too interested in the character that got the most face time either. But The Calling was by no means a bad novel. The writing style was clean and the mystery about the serial killer was well thought out. Ms. Bruce is a likeable author and I may try my hand at another one of her novels in the future.\nARC won on GoodReads First Read Program.\nLabels: 3 dream catchers, ARC, Mystery",

The scene in question is mostly exposition, and there were some worries the effect might be too distracting (when I introduced the idea, Ian asked me if I'd consider having the characters wear magnetic boots), but in fact it seems to work okay, and it has one unexpected benefit; having the characters able to drift around freely makes it a lot easier to fit the speech balloons in :-)\nHi Jeremy, hope you didn't mind me adding your site to my links, I'm not sure what the etiquette is in these situation...",

        "raw_content": "How to Treat Irritable Bowel Syndrome Conditions\nIBS, also known as irritable bowel syndrome, has no cure. However, there are a number of ways in which the symptoms of the condition can be managed. Some of the options that doctors may prescribe for people with IBS include use of medicines, change in diet, therapies for mental health, use of probiotics, and so on. Sometimes, a number of the options may be tried before a few are identified that produce the best results for a patient. A doctor can help you determine the best treatment method to use for your IBS condition.\nOne of the treatment options that a doctor may recommend is a change in diet.\nTreating Irritable Bowel Syndrome through Dietary Changes\nA change is diet is one of the common treatment methods doctors advise patients suffering from irritable bowel syndrome. The right diet and nutritional intake can help to reduce and manage the symptoms of IBS. Among the symptoms of IBS are bloating, constipation, cramps, pain and diarrhea. The symptoms can become more serious if you do not have some specific nutrients in your diet. For example, if your diet does not comprise of enough diet, the symptoms are likely to become more serious.\nHowever, there is more to treating IBS that a simple diet change. To effectively treat IBS, it\u2019s important to know its underlying causes. The inability of the body to properly digest food is the major cause of IBS. A doctor can prescribe the best treatment for your IBS based on its underlying cause. When your body handles digestion properly, your health will significantly improve.\nThe main causes of irritable bowel syndrome are overgrowth of bacteria in the small intestine and food allergies. The small intestine has a small lining. The intestine is also very close to undigested food particles and bacteria. Sometimes, the lining can break and lead to various problems. The lining of the small intestine can break due to things such as using too many antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs, intestinal infections, high sugar diet, low-fiber diet, and use of steroids.\nThe enteric nervous system can be irritated when the small intestine lining is broken and you may suffering from immune response and allergies. As a result, you may suffer from allergies, arthritis, irritable bowel syndrome and an irritable brain. Irritable bowel syndrome usually results when bacteria enters the small intestines when its lining is broken. You should go to a doctor to have your small intestines examined. Depending on the causes of your IBS, the doctor will prescribe the appropriate remedy.\nYou can determine the right treatment of IBS when you identify its underlying causes.",

This is known as the green card.\nDrinking any amount of alcohol has effects on the physical co-ordination of the body and can seriously slow down judgement and reaction time. Within minutes of being consumed, alcohol is absorbed into the blood stream and reaches the brain where there is an immediate impairment of brain function. It takes an hour for the adult body to process one unit of alcohol. Drinking alcohol can have associated hazards, such as visual and spatial impairment, delayed reaction times. The level of risk depends on who is drinking, how much and in what situation.\nYoung people find out about alcohol by trying it themselves, observing others and through information from parents, at school and via the media, through advertising, etc. Young people are impressionable and will inevitably be influenced by those adults they respect as well as the activities and opinions of their peers. Drinking alcohol may not mean adults set a bad example to young people. However, in certain circumstances doing so has the potential to place adults in a compromising position with regard to their responsibilities for child protection and their duty of care.\nAdults in Scouting are a role models for young people, as such it is important that all adults set a good example to young people and also aid young people\u2019s understanding of the effects and potential issues associated with the consumption of alcohol. This topic will be part of the programme in the Scout and Explorer sections.\nThe Group\u2019s policy on the consumption of alcohol is based upon The Scout Association\u2019s policy, but goes further, in an effort to make the guidance clearer for all to understand.\nFor the purposes of this document Adults refers to all members of the Group: leaders, members of the executive committee, members of the Active Support Unit and parents attending Scouting activities.\nAt regular meetings, Group, District, County or any other Scouting events and camps where young people are present (whether or not the adults present are responsible for the young people) the following rules will be observed:\nUnder 18\u2019s must not consume alcohol under any circumstances.\nAdults must not consume alcohol under any circumstances. This includes for a period of time prior to participating in a Scouting activity where the adult will be in the presence of young people. In other words adults at Scouting events must not be under the influence of alcohol.\nIf there is a suspicion that an Adult or young person is under the influence of alcohol or is seen to be consuming alcohol at Scouting events this should be immediately reported to the Section Leader or Group Scout Leader as appropriate. This is in line with the Scout Associations \u201cYoung People First\u201d code of practice (Yellow Card).\nYoung people and adults should be helped to understand the issues associated with alcohol and how to access information and advice to make informed choices\nAt social events, the consumption of alcohol by adults may be acceptable, as the adults may not be in charge of young people. The responsible consumption of alcohol in a social context could be viewed as an important lesson for young people, who will encounter alcohol later in their life. It is important therefore, that in a social context, the behaviour of adults be an example to young people, many of whom may see these adults as role models. Guidance on the consumption of alcohol at social events is as follows:\nUnder 18\u2019s must not consume or serve alcohol under any circumstances.\nAll adults present at the event, be they members of the Group, invited guests or parents of members must drink responsibly and not to excess.\nWhere young people are present at the social event unaccompanied (i.e. without a parent or guardian):\nadult supervision must be provided in line with the Scout Association\u2019s recommended ratios of adults to young people and those supervising must not consume alcohol before and during the event.\nThe parent or guardian MUST be informed before the event that the consumption of alcohol will be permitted at the event and that the above conditions will apply.\nIn addition the normal in Touch process will apply and will be communicated to parents in advance of the event.\nIf you would like further information on the use of alcohol and its effects, please visit:\nias.org.uk\nalcoholconcern.org.uk\ntalktofrank.com/\ndrinkaware.co.uk/\nSubstance Abuse and Misuse\nLegal and illegal drugs can cause problems in Scouting and in the society as a whole. They raise a number of issues for both young people and adults.\nIf there is a concern that a young person or adult\u2019s behaviour is being affected by substance abuse this should be reported to the Group Scout Leader who will then follow the appropriate safeguarding procedure as detailed in the \u201cYoung People First\u201d yellow card.\nThe Misuse of Drugs Act 1971 lists controlled drugs and sets out three categories Class A, B and C. The Medicines Act 1968 also sets out controls on the possession and use of certain drugs Under UK law it is a crime to possess, deal or produce what is termed an illegal drug. The penalties depend on which drug and the quantities involved, and whether you are also involved in dealing or producing the drug. The most severe penalty can be an unlimited fine and life in prison. You may be charged with possessing an illegal substance if you\u2019re caught with drugs, whether they\u2019re yours or not. If you\u2019re under 18, the police are allowed to tell your parent, guardian or carer that you\u2019ve been caught with drugs.\nIf there is a suspicion that a young person or adult is in possession of illegal drugs then this MUST be IMMEDIATELY reported to the Section Leader and/or Group Scout Leader who MUST then report this to the police.\nJust because a drug is classed as legal does not mean it is safe. So-called \u2018legal highs\u2019 can produce the same harmful effects as illegal drugs; they are termed \u2018legal\u2019 simply because they are not yet covered by legislation such as the Misuse of Drugs Act.\nLegal highs can have similar negative behavioural effects and health risks as illegal drugs.\nThe use of these so-called legal highs is not permitted at any Scouting activity or event. Anyone in possession of such drugs or found using them MUST be reported to the Section Leader and/ or Group Scout Leader who will then follow the appropriate safeguarding procedure as detailed in the \u201cYoung People First\u201d yellow card.\nPeople often think that prescription and OTC drugs are safer than illegal drugs, but that\u2019s only true when they are taken exactly as prescribed and for the purpose intended. When abused, prescription and OTC drugs can be addictive and put abusers at risk of adverse health effects, including organ damage, psychotic conditions and overdose. Many people use over the counter drugs (OTC) and prescription drugs safely and responsibly, but a few may become dependent or addicted to the drugs that were meant to help them.\nExcept in an emergency, adults in Scouting will not administer any drugs to young people without the consent of their parent or legal guardian.\nIf a young person needs to take prescription drugs then the details of the prescription and the drugs should be passed to the leader in charge or the leader responsible for medication so that the storage and issue of the medication can be controlled and applied safely as prescribed.\nAdults taking medication themselves or looking after the medication to be given to young people MUST ensure that all prescription and over the counter drugs will be safely stored out of reach of young people. Where temperature control is required leaders should be informed in advance as special measures may need to be taken to ensure their safe storage at certain events.\nThe Scout Association has a key policy which requires Scouting to be provided in a safe manner without risk to health, so far as is reasonably practicable (Policy, Organisation and Rules, Section 2.3). The Group recognises that adults have the right to smoke, the Group also recognises that non-smokers have the right to not be subjected to passive smoking.\nThe Health Act 2006 makes it illegal to smoke in all enclosed work places in England. One of the most effective ways of helping young people to develop is to allow them to learn by doing. Quite often an Adult in Scouting will demonstrate a particular skill and in turn will expect a young person to learn the skill. If a young person sees an adult smoking they may copy in their desire to be \u2018grown up\u2019.\nFor the purposes of this policy the term smoking includes the use of cigarettes, pipes and, e-cigarettes. Taking into account the law and the duty of care to young people and adults involved in Scouting, the following policy on smoking will be enforced by the Group:\nSmoking is prohibited on all Scout Group property.\nSmoking is prohibited in all buildings in use for Scout activities and events\nSmoking in tents is prohibited at all times\nSmoking is prohibited in all Scout Group vehicles and all vehicles hired for use by the Group, including private vehicles in use during Scouting activities\nSmoking is prohibited for anyone under the age of 18\nAt events where adults are present for a prolonged period (e.g. more than two hours) a smoking area will be defined, smoking areas will always be outdoors. No adult should smoke in front of young people and matches, lighters, pipes, cigarettes and e-cigarettes should be safely stored out of reach of all young people.\nThe effects of smoking and vaping will be discussed with Scouts and Explorer Scouts as part of their programme with a view to enabling young people to make informed decisions.\nhttp://www.smokefreeengland.co.uk/what-do-i-do/quick-guide/ A guide to the 2007 smoke free legislation\nSmoke Free Scouting\nTalk to Frank \u2013 a national drug education service.\nbbc.co.uk/radio1/advice/drink_drugs \u2013 information about a range of drugs, their effects and dangers.",

        "title": "New European Professional Card helps professionals work throughout the EU | Internal Market, Industry, Entrepreneurship and SMEs",
        "raw_content": "New European Professional Card helps professionals work throughout the EU\nGeneral care nurses, pharmacists, physiotherapists, real estate agents and mountain guides can now pursue their professions more freely in other EU countries thanks to the European Professional Card (EPC). The card, available from today, aims to ease the free movement of these mobile professionals by simplifying the procedure for getting their professional qualifications recognised in another EU country.\nOne of the objectives of the recently adopted Single Market Strategy is to enable Europeans to work wherever they chose, anywhere in the EU. When a profession is regulated in the EU country of destination, professionals with equivalent qualifications from another EU country may need to get those qualifications recognised before they can start working there.\nThe EPC will help in this process. It is not a plastic card, but an electronic certificate issued via the first EU-wide fully online procedure for the recognition of qualifications. It works via the well-established Internal Market Information System (IMI) and allows professionals to communicate with the relevant authorities inside a secure network. The IMI also provides for an official, multilingual communication channel between the regulating authorities for professionals in EU countries to facilitate their cooperation and enhance mutual trust.\nWith the support of the European Commission, national IMI coordinators will register these authorities and give them access to the new EPC module. Authorities in the countries of origin will be responsible for checking the authenticity and validity of application documents, to ensure that only properly qualified professionals can look for work in other countries.\nThe EPC does not replace the \u2018traditional\u2019 recognition procedures foreseen by the Professional Qualifications Directive, but it does offer an advantageous option for professionals who wish to work either temporarily or permanently in another EU country. Professionals can start their application online with their home authority (the country where they are established or where they obtained their qualifications). The application can be submitted in any EU language thanks to the structured multilingual questions and translation facilities offered by the IMI.\nAlert mechanism \u2013 providing for safe mobility\nFrom today, EU countries will also be required to warn each other through the IMI about professionals working in the fields of health or education of minors who have been prohibited or restricted from practice in one EU country, or who have used falsified diplomas in support of their application for the recognition of their qualification. The alert mechanism will provide strong data protection safeguards for the professionals, and safeguard people who use the professional services.\nThe introduction of the EPC and the alert mechanism is one of the major achievements of the modernisation of the Professional Qualifications Directive. Sometimes EU countries make access to a particular profession conditional upon the possession of a professional qualification traditionally issued within their territory. This represents an obstacle to the core principles of the Single Market for services as those qualified to practice the same profession in another EU country cannot do so. In response, the EU adopted the Professional Qualifications Directive, which provides a system of recognition of professional experience and promotes automatic recognition of this experience across the EU.\nLast year, the Commission adopted the implementing regulation to introduce the EPC for the first five professions. They were selected among those having expressed an interest, following thorough consultations with stakeholders and Member States.\nIn the future, the EPC may be extended to other mobile professions that meet the criteria set out in the Professional Qualifications Directive. This would take place after practical experience of the functioning of the procedure has been gained and consultations have been carried out with stakeholders. However, a date for such extension has not been set.\nFor more information on the European Professional Card:\nThe European Professional Card - Your Europe\nThe European Professional Card - DG GROW website\nFor more information on regulated professions and mobility statistics:\nThe Regulated Professions Database",

        "raw_content": "In March 1984, representatives of neuropsychopharmacological societies from across Europe sat down to dinner in Copenhagen to mark the 25th anniversary of the then Scandinavian Association of Psychopharmacology. European integration was in the air. The question was raised: might there be a case for a European structure, to give European neuropsychopharmacologists a platform to exchange and promote the region\u2019s best research?\nTo follow up on this idea, a meeting was held in Copenhagen in May 1985. The rationale of a pan-European organisation was so powerful that it was decided to take it further: a European College of Neuropsychopharmacology (ECNP) would be founded. A Working Group was formed to plan the association\u2019s inaugural scientific congress.\nThat inaugural congress was held in Brussels in 1987. Some 500 people attended from across Europe, a remarkable turnout for a new entrant. ECNP was formally launched. The College\u2019s constitution came two years later in Gothenburg \u2013 the same governance structure that serves ECNP today.\nIn 1993 the College established a permanent secretariat in Utrecht, the Netherlands. It had one room and a part-time secretary, but it was the beginnings of the ECNP Office. Permanent management meant organisational continuity, and with it financial stability. The 9th ECNP Congress in Amsterdam in 1996 was the first to be co-ordinated in-house. The College has never looked back.\nToday, the ECNP Congress attracts some 5,000 participants from around the world, and has become the benchmark scientific meeting in its field. But that is not all. As well as the congress, the College now organises a wide range of meetings, educational initiatives and scientific programmes, almost all of them organised by the ECNP Office and funded by the College. Every year more than 400 early career scientists attend ECNP educational meetings, from our Workshop in Nice, France, to our clinical School in Oxford, Child and Adolescent School in Venice, Clinical Research Methods Workshop in Barcelona, and half dozen Seminars across Eastern Europe. Our research networks programme now includes 13 Networks, covering many of the major challenge areas in brain research and treatment, and connects hundreds of researchers across Europe. The Experimental Medicines Network drove the successful bid for IMI2 funding worth 16 million euros earlier this year. The Neuroscience-based Nomenclature (NbN) project to reform the naming conventions of psychotropic drugs, a unique collaboration, spearheaded by ECNP, between the world\u2019s leading scientific societies in neuropsychopharmacology \u2013 including IUPHAR \u2013 is driving an important shift in how psychiatric medicines are understood by clinicians. Finally, the ECNP journal, European Neuropsychopharmacology (ENP), is developing as a premier publication for applied and translational neuroscience.\nTogether, these activities and initiatives make ECNP the largest non-institutional supporter of applied neuroscience research and education in Europe.\nThe characteristics that have defined ECNP for 30 years \u2013 its focus on high-quality research and education; excellent organisation; constructive, but independent engagement with industry; and close co-operation with national European and international organisations \u2013 continue to shape its strategic direction and guide its future.\nBut much has changed in 30 years. In 1987 the future of treatment lay in medicines, and the riddle of the biological bases of brain disorders seemed only a step or two away from being solved. Thirty years later the underlying biology remains elusive, but ground-breaking discoveries have led neuroscience into to exciting new areas of research investigating the brain basis of emotion, cognition and action. This understanding has opened up whole new treatment avenues for investigation and development, from deep brain stimulation to the talking therapies.\nFrom its founding interest in pharmacology ECNP has expanded its remit to encompass interventions across the range of applied and clinical neuroscience. As the College enters its fourth decade it will be focused more than ever on connecting the steadily proliferating fields of brain research and bringing them to bear on the challenges of human illness.\nThe need to do so arguably gets constantly greater. For disorders of the brain, public research funding significantly lags behind the public health need, and private-sector funding is being comprehensively reconfigured. European researchers are increasingly thrown back on their own resources. Meanwhile, in one form or another, disorders of the brain now affect one out of three Europeans. Our work with the European Brain Council has helped raise awareness of the challenge in Brussels.\nThis environment makes the College\u2019s mission vitally relevant. ECNP\u2019s role as a hub connecting laboratory discoveries with clinical applications is served with such focus by no other organisation in Europe. Collaboration at a European level is vital to harness scare expertise, increase patient participation in research, and bring together centres of excellence in joint projects. To have a European-wide body stimulating and co-ordinating this co-operation is becoming more important than ever.\nThirty years is not a long time in which to apply any basic science advances to medical practice. ECNP looks forwards keenly to the excitement of seeing the recent decades of brain research translated into enduring patient benefit.",

Clear.\nCHIME and Fellow Industry Stakeholders Call on CMS to Expedite MU Modifications Rule\nFrom www.hitechanswers.net -\tAugust 6, 2015 12:17 PM\nThe College of Healthcare Information Management Executives (CHIME) joined a diverse group 18 industry stakeholders urging the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) to finalize the rule that sets meaningful use requirements for 2015 through 2017.\nIn May, the nation\u2019s leading professional organization of chief information officers (CIOs) and senior IT executives in healthcare, submitted formal comments on the proposed changes to the EHR Incentive Program in which CHIME commended the agency for leading a series of changes to Meaningful Use, specifically the provision to shorten the EHR reporting period in 2015 from a full calendar year to 90 days.\n\u201cThe additional time proposed by the modifications rule could help hundreds of thousands of providers meet meaningful use requirements in an effective and safe manner. However, we are just 61 days away from the end of the fiscal year, and the final quarter of 2015, yet hospitals and physicians are without the rules outlining the requirements for participation in the program this year,\u201d said Leslie Krigstein, Interim Vice President of Public Policy for CHIME.\nWhile, the efforts of CMS to simplify meaningful use in the 2015-2017 Modifications Rule are welcomed \u2013 and will be a key contributor to the ongoing success of the program \u2013 \u201cproviders and technology developers need to have the certainty now that comes with a Final Rule in order to be able to meet the reporting deadlines for 2015 and continue participation in the program,\u201d stated the stakeholder group, which included provider and vendor representatives.\nUnfortunately with the end of the fiscal year CIOs are finding themselves questioning their ability to successfully participate in the meaningful use program if the rules are not released quickly.\n\u201cCMS offered many beneficial changes in the proposed Modifications Rule, yet the delayed release may impede providers\u2019 ability to not only take advantage of the proposed changes, but ultimately jeopardize their participation in the 2015 program year,\u201d said Krigstein.\n\u201cImmediate clarity on the expectations for providers in 2015 is the best hope for enabling success in the meaningful use program this year.\u201d\nCiting the end of the fiscal year approaching, the letter states, \u201cIf providers do not receive the Final Rule shortly, it will be very difficult to make workflow adjustments in a timely manner to meet programmatic deadlines and facilitate Meaningful Use tracking and reporting.\u201d\nThree Steps to Follow Before ICD-10 Conversion Deadline\nFrom ehrintelligence.com -\tMay 20, 2015 12:52 PM\nIf any providers still think there will be another ICD-10 delay, they may be mistaken. The ICD-10 conversion is moving forward and a full implementation will take place on October 1, 2015. The Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society (HIMSS) reports that this major diagnosis coding change is coming in less than five months and providers need to be prepared for the ICD-10 conversion.\nProviders will need to be ready to use ICD-10 codes on claims and other transactions with health insurers in order to be adequately reimbursed. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) will not be accepting any claims that used ICD-9 coding after October 1, which means providers that utilize old codes will not be paid.\nWhile there are many healthcare providers that have taken the necessary steps to prepare for the ICD-10 conversion deadline, a WEDI survey and other reports illustrate that a significant number of healthcare organizations have not gone forward with preparing for the ICD-10 implementation.\nHIMSS states that providers who haven\u2019t taken the necessary steps need to devote as much time as possible over the next few months to prepare for the ICD-10 conversion and conduct testing, upgrading and training in the limited time before October. There are three steps that HIMSS suggests providers follow in order to prevent any major issues with their revenue cycle after the deadline passes.\nIdentify the Top Medical Conditions\nEvery healthcare organization has several common conditions that their patients are afflicted with. To prepare for the ICD-10 conversion, it\u2019s vital to identify these diseases and find the corresponding coding set of each. The most common conditions are associated with the largest net of revenue for medical facilities, which is why understanding the documentation of these health problems is so vital.\nHospital coders and claim submitters need to know the key documentation information to ensure they select the right ICD-10 code. Processes surrounding data capture, documentation, and recording will need to be updated to correspond with the new coding set.\nUpgrade Health IT Systems\nIn preparations for the ICD-10 conversion, one of the most important tasks to complete is to update all health IT systems within an organization for ICD-10 capability. If a vendor handles IT updates, be sure they have come to install and test the latest versions of their software, HIMSS explains.\nIf an internal team handles health IT updates, be sure they have gone forward with all relevant installations especially with coding, documentation, and billing systems. All staff affected by the ICD-10 conversion will also need to be trained before the deadline.\nConduct Internal and External Partner Testing\nAfter all systems are upgraded to the new coding set, it\u2019s vital to conduct ICD-10 testing procedures both on the internal side and with external partners. Dual coding of incoming patients could be very useful information. Additionally, \u201cdummy claims\u201d in which false patient scenarios are incorporated can help test updated systems before the ICD-10 deadline. Any issues that may come up during testing should also be adjusted before October 1. It\u2019s vital to follow these steps and prepare for the ICD-10 conversion before time runs out.\nEHR Incentive Programs Sparked Market to Reach $25 Billion\nThe meaningful use requirements under the Medicare and Medicaid EHR Incentive Programs have brought forth an era of electronic data access for the healthcare industry. The EHR market has never been stronger and recent findings illustrate that fact. A report from Kalorama Information called EMR 2015: The Market for Electronic Medical Records states that the EHR market reached nearly $25 billion in 2014.\nSome of the stimulants that led to this increase for the EHR market come from the payment penalties promised by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), the financial boosts assured under the EHR Incentive Programs, vendors upgrading systems, and the search for greater efficiency throughout the healthcare industry.\n\u201cThere\u2019s still a healthy and competitive market for EMR,\u201d Bruce Carlson, Publisher of Kalorama Information, said in a public statement. \u201cExpect growth this year and next at seven to eight percent and stable growth until 2019. Eventually, there will be market saturation but this is a bit of a way off, especially in emerging markets.\u201d\nBetween 2012 and 2014, the EHR market grew by 10 percent due to system upgrades and EHR adoption across the healthcare sector. Kalorama predicts that this market will hit $35.2 billion over the next four years.\nAs more providers and hospitals continue to attest to Stage 2 and Stage 3 Meaningful Use requirements under the EHR Incentive Programs, EHR adoption and upgrades will continue to rise over the coming years. Additionally, the payment reductions stemming from the meaningful use regulations will push more healthcare providers to continue updating their systems and spending more funds on certified EHR technology.\nThe latest results from CMS show that, last year, more than 80 percent of doctors across the country have utilized an EHR system as compared to 57 percent in 2011. At this point in time, the federal government has distributed more than $28 billion among providers who have successfully attested to meaningful use requirements under the EHR Incentive Programs.\nThe Kalorama report also found that EHR adoption varies among different parts of the US and different age groups with younger physicians more likely to implement and utilize certified EHR technology. One out of two doctors report having EHR platforms that meet the federal criteria for having a basic system.\nThe report from Kalorama discusses a variety of issues within the health IT sphere and the stimulants behind the EHR market. These factors include the historic market growth since 2012, regulatory trends, international market sizing, and profiles of various EHR vendors. Additionally, the report covers the status of meaningful use requirements, incentives under the EHR Incentive Programs, and vendor pricing.\nCurrently, the healthcare IT market is very complex with a wide variety of developments stimulating its growth. From mergers, acquisitions, security developments, and the ICD-10 transition to BYOD, big data, and the rise in electronic prescribing, the health IT market is likely to continue growing and transforming over the coming years.\nFuture of Health IT: \u201cIt\u2019s Time to Build Something Magnificent\u201d\nFrom www.healthcare-informatics.com -\tMay 13, 2015 11:10 AM\nWhen it comes to health IT policy mandates, provider organizations have long questioned what\u2019s behind the rulemaking process, with many showing further concern regarding federal leaders\u2019 expertise levels and their lack of willingness to change based on public opinion. At the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), senior technical director of Medicaid health IT Jason McNamara pays no attention these criticisms. \u201cThose types of comments are tied to the old 1970s and 1980s way of thinking about the government, which was slow and hard to move, which sort of like a battleship in the ocean, took time to change. That\u2019s not part of the government I\u2019m with now,\u201d McNamara says.\nMcNamara has a wide variety of skills and projects he works on at CMS, ranging from Medicaid electronic health record (EHR) incentive programs to meaningful use rule development to health information exchange (HIE) strategies to consulting on state health IT development under the state innovation model (SIM) grants. McNamara, who focuses on the Medicaid side at CMS, recently spoke with HCI Associate Editor Rajiv Leventhal further about the perception of the government in the health IT landscape, as well as current trends and challenges he\u2019s seeing in the industry from a policy perspective. Below are excerpts from that interview.\nTell me about how you got involved with CMS and what your current role there is?\nI work in the data systems group, and if you think about the data systems group, in the context of Medicaid, we essentially work on anything IT related as long as it touches the administration of a Medicaid program or Medicaid beneficiaries. So I like to loosely interpret that as the IT arm of Medicaid. I am a technologist by trade; I spent five years in the Marine Corps, and have trained in communications and technology. I set myself up for a public safety IT focus, which evolved into health IT over the years, and 15 years later, here I am. I also did work as a consultant implementing EHRs, building proprietary systems for large hospital systems, eventually moving over to the Department of Defense (DoD) and Veterans Administration (VA), having worked on their clinical applications as well. I was clinical operations director for ALTA, the DoD EHR system. Then in 2012 with HITECH legislation coming down, I have been managing EHR incentive programs ever since.\nWhat are your insider thoughts on the DoD EHR contract bid?\nWell it\u2019s needed, it\u2019s time to modernize that infrastructure. If you look at the infrastructure that\u2019s in place, it\u2019s antiquated. Some of those legacy systems were developed in the 1970s and 80s. Clearly it\u2019s time to change the way they\u2019re deploying their clinical technologies. This proposal will give us an opportunity to modernize a much needed environment. I have to maintain vendor neutrality here, but folks know some of the largest vendors that have partnered to help develop interoperable solutions, and it\u2019s good that they have come to the table here.\nWhat are the biggest priorities right now for you at CMS?\nWe have been very focused on Affordable Care Act work; we spent a lot of time deploying that, and now we\u2019re breathing easier and are more focused on modernizing our systems on the Medicaid side, moving them into a real-time, progressive, shared-service model across Medicaid states. We are also heavily focused on data, deploying systems both at the state and federal levels to help analyze the massive amounts of Medicaid data we have. That is huge for us over the next 12 months. And then we are of course continuing to work on health IT an HIE, an area that has lot of area for growth both from a policy and deployment perspective.\nIdeally, in a perfect world, what would be the role of the government in this industry?\nIt depends on the topic. If you look at the National Health Information Network (NHIN), that was an Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC) program, and they managed it 100 percent at the federal level. As time progressed, they changed that and it got run over to a non-profit, Healtheway, who has since taken it over. In that regard, the government was widely used as a kickstarter to deploy that program, which is now self-sustaining in the private market. So I think it was important to push that forward. We took a step back and let the market drive that, and it\u2019s been successful.\nStandards are an interesting topic as to what role the government plays, and we\u2019re still trying to figure that part out. There has been a lot of conversation around open source products, as we have been playing with this idea in the Medicaid space. But how do we administer those open source products? What is our role? We have started to dabble in that market, but how do we translate that back into the community and let them market-ize the platform?\nBasically, there isn\u2019t one answer to this question. Everyone would agree that government has an important role, and we have to figure out what that looks like in each separate scenario.\nHow would you respond to the criticism that federal leaders aren\u2019t appropriately apt to make such impactful health IT policy decisions?\nIn our government, these are folks who are industry experts who gave up lucrative positions and high paying jobs to help do good. They come from the smartest universities such as Harvard and Johns Hopkins, they were CIOs in large hospitals, and data geeks form get go with three or four computer degrees. So I don\u2019t see this in the world I live in. It is true that it\u2019s difficult for policy makers to keep in touch with where the rubber meets the road. We have to understand the impacts of the policy decisions and how it translates, and we\u2019re getting better at it. We are receptive to public reception and very perceptive into how folks see the program. I\u2019m a technologist, I started by implementing EHRs, so when someone tells me I don\u2019t know what I\u2019m talking about with EHRs, it is offensive. The government is made up of people who want to do good and are here for good reasons. They are underpaid and overworked. I know colleagues that haven\u2019t had a day off in two or three months. So I can\u2019t really associate with those types of comments.\nWhat did you think about the news that Karen DeSalvo is likely out at ONC, and what would you like to see from the next National Coordinator?\nI think it's a logical step for her career and her success. Karen is a dear friend and colleague and she is one who can just get things done. There's value in that mindset no matter where you are in the health system. I think the next coordinator will have to continue to push the community with health IT adoption and interoperability. More importantly, push agencies towards modernizing their various policies that have a direct or indirect impact in the use of technology. In short, the last five years have been spent laying the foundation. It's time to build something magnificent.\nWhat are your biggest challenges and pain points right now at CMS?\nThe way we have done business in the last 30 years is significantly changing; helping become a change agent is a very sensitive thing around everything related to Medicaid. We are not your grandmother\u2019s Medicaid program anymore\u2014it\u2019s a different environment and building that trust is something we\u2019re very focused on. It will become more complicated and important as we liberate data and start to tell stories about our beneficiaries. We have begun to publish a lot of data, and then folks get access to it, analyze, and make connections. We need to make sure communications across systems is continual, that\u2019s a big focal point for us.\nWith respect to EHRs, we are very mindful of providers who have never had technology in practice. They are a minority but they do exist, as a specific percent are struggling with that. So it\u2019s a challenge considering that from a policy perspective. Also, from a federal perspective, figuring out what\u2019s the value in what we pay for? The data systems group has a $5 billion IT portfolio across states, but what does that mean and how do we create an environment where we make taxpayers dollars most effective installing systems? That\u2019s very complicated, especially when working with legacy systems.\nYou help write the EHR certification criteria for the meaningful use program. Can you get into detail about what\u2019s behind that?\nWe create an advisory group, which comes from the private sector\u2014doctors and CIOs\u2014not public servants. That committee looks at the program, takes public comment, and has very intimate conversations about how it will look from a clinical and systems perspective, and how it will be deployed. So we take in recommendations, and sometimes the idea starts with a simple Word document. We\u2019ll toss around ideas and end up with some direction. The committee acts as an objective filter for that. So once we do that, we make a notice for proposal.\nFor the meaningful use program, we put that on the street and take public comment. We are required to respond back\u2014most people don\u2019t even know that. If there\u2019s a policy objective or measure we use and there\u2019s a lot of comment, we can go back, change it and finalize it. We take our process from the Hill, we interpret what we think they\u2019re trying to achieve for regulation, and then we finalize that with our rulemaking process. Then we go forward and deploy the program. When we start to hear questions from provider groups or associations, we create a sub-regulatory guidance, which provides clarity to what we intended when people have difficulty interpreting things. And we can use riders to modify and make amendments as well.\nWhat has the Stage 3 feedback been like so far?\nI think we are at a place where Stage 3 was an aggregate of comments that we have heard over the years. We have learned lot of lessons with Stage 1 and 2, and we are now seeing a much more simplified version. How is this connecting to other programs? It aims to simplify the administration process. Folks have been generally favorable\u2014there have been some concerns about the details of the regulation, and we will publicize those as we start to finalize it. Stage 3 is a much needed policy change, generally speaking.\nYou have worked with a ton of EMR vendors in the past. How would you rate their willingness to be more open systems?\nI think at the end of day, vendors are there for their customers. That means a few things: customers have to hold the vendors accountable, customers have to be knowledgeable, they have to know what they want, and they have to know what\u2019s happening. Too often we see providers pointing fingers at vendors, but are you asking them the right questions and holding them to those standards? Chances are if you hold someone to a standard, he or she would like to perform to that standard.\nI think vendors want to support their customers, do good by them, stay in business, and grow revenue, and the way to do that is to solve problems of customers. You can\u2019t get answers to those problems unless you ask questions, though. The vendors are trying, some have built infrastructure around housing their data in an effort to move data within the context of their own systems. I think that\u2019s okay for now. But when folks talk about restricting and closing access, that\u2019s a problem for me. We meet with vendors regularly, people don\u2019t realize that. If we\u2019re hearing problems from providers over and over again we can go right to the executive leaders of those vendors to work those out.\nIf you had to give a message to the industry as they move forward in a challenging time, what would it be?\nWe have to keep asking questions and challenge the data. We have a data-saturated environment right now. There is a lot of noise around that data, but what does it all mean? A very important piece of all this, and this ties into interoperability, is the semantics of the data. Let\u2019s keep challenging the data, keep asking questions, and if we have asked so many questions and challenged different pieces, then we have created this fog, but we could sift through that to find direction and truth. It\u2019s not about you, me, a specific provider or vendor, it\u2019s about the collective. What are we doing as the collective to move forward? Let\u2019s have the conversation that way.\nCMS Announces $284 Million Saved in Pioneer ACO Program After Two Years\nFrom www.healthcare-informatics.com -\tMay 5, 2015 10:16 AM\nAfter two years in existence, the Pioneer Accountable Care Organization (ACO) program has saved the Medicare program $384 million in total, or $300 per Medicare beneficiary per year. Participating providers saved Medicare $279.7 million in 2012 and $104.5 million in 2013. That amount of savings was announced on the website of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), and came via an independent evaluation report released May 4 by HHS. What\u2019s more, as the announcement noted, the independent Office of the Actuary in the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) has certified that the Pioneer ACO program is model \u201cis the first to meet expansion to a larger population of Medicare beneficiaries.\u201d\nAccording to the announcement, \u201cThe independent evaluation report for CMS found that the Pioneer Accountable Care Organization (ACO) Model generated over $384 million in savings to Medicare over its first two years \u2013 an average of approximately $300 per participating beneficiary per year \u2013 while continuing to deliver high-quality patient care. The Actuary\u2019s certification that expansion of Pioneer ACOs would reduce net Medicare spending, coupled with Secretary Sylvia Mathews Burwell\u2019s determination that expansion would maintain or improve patient care without limiting coverage or benefits, means that HHS will consider ways to scale the Pioneer ACO Model into other Medicare programs.\u201d\nReacting to the development, HHS Secretary Sylvia Mathews Burwell was quoted in the online announcement as saying, \u201cThis is a crucial milestone in our efforts to build a health care system that delivers better care, spends our health care dollars more wisely, and results in healthier people. The Affordable Care Act gave us powerful new tools to test better ways to improve patient care and keep communities healthier. The Pioneer ACO Model has demonstrated that patients can get high quality and coordinated care at the right time, and we can generate savings for Medicare and the health care system at large.\u201d\nThe Pioneer ACO Model, one of the first payment models launched by CMS, gives experienced health care organizations accountability for quality and cost outcomes for their Medicare patients. Doctors and hospitals who form Pioneer ACOs can share in savings generated for Medicare if they work to coordinate patient care, keep patients healthy and meet certain quality performance standards, or they may be required to pay a share of any losses generated.\nCurrently, more than 600,000 Medicare beneficiaries are assigned to Pioneer ACO organizations.\nThe announcement touted the fact that Medicare beneficiaries enrolled in Pioneer ACOs, on average, \u201creport more timely care and better communication with their providers; use inpatient hospital services less and have fewer tests and procedures; have more follow-up visits from their providers after hospital discharge.\u201d The announcement also noted that the Pioneer ACO program\u2019s evolution harmonizes with broader federal efforts, including with Secretary Burwell\u2019s goal of tying 30 percent of Medicare payments to quality and value through alternative payment models by 2016 and 50 percent to such models by 2018.\nReacting to Monday\u2019s news, the Charlotte-based Premier Inc. released a statement, attributed to Blair Childs, senior vice president for public policy for the nationwide health alliance. \u201cToday\u2019s announcement proves that innovative care delivery models such as the Pioneer ACO program are effective at generating cost savings, while simultaneously improving quality and beneficiary satisfaction with care,\u201d Childs said. \u201cFor more than a decade, members of the Premier alliance have been national leaders implementing payment and delivery reforms that improve quality while safely reducing costs.\u201d\nStill, Premier\u2019s Childs said in the statement that, \u201cWhile we support the desire to expand the Pioneer ACO program through track 3, as described in the Medicare Shared Savings Program (MSSP) proposed rule, we believe important changes need to be made, including:\nStrengthen the assignment process by allowing Medicare beneficiaries to attest to participation in ACOs;\nEstablish a more appropriate balance between risk and reward, including higher shared savings for high-quality providers and a period where risk can be phased in over time;\nModify the current benchmark methodology to mitigate the impact on ACOs that lower expenses and achieve savings, and to allow ACOs to decide how to best account for regional and local cost trends;\nEmploy a risk-adjustment methodology that truly takes into account an individual beneficiary\u2019s acuity;\nAdopt payment waivers to eliminate barriers to care coordination; and\nProvide more comprehensive and timelier data on ACOs\u2019 patients.\u201d\nThree Vendors are Driving Patient Engagement and Portal Use\nDriving patient engagement is still vital for the healthcare sector despite certain inconsistencies from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS). Even though CMS has proposed new Stage 2 Meaningful Use regulations that drop the 5 percent requirement of patients viewing, downloading, and transmitting their health information to just one patient per provider, the organization still expects eligible professionals and hospitals to meet a much larger percentage \u2013 currently proposed to be 25 percent \u2013 of patients viewing their medical data through patient portals under the Stage 3 Meaningful Use requirements. As such, providers would be wise to continue integrating patient engagement strategies at their facility.\nVendors play a vital part in developing effective patient portals to assist providers in driving patient engagement among their community of consumers. A report from the research firm KLAS examined which vendors in particular have been most useful in moving forward patient portal adoption amidst healthcare providers.Driving Patient Engagement\nAthenahealth, Epic, and Medfusion were reported to be at the top of their game when it comes to increasing portal adoption throughout the patient population. More than half of the customers under all three vendors report that at least 20 percent of their patients have accessed the patient portal. This is well above the previous 5 percent threshold that CMS initially unrolled under Stage 2 Meaningful Use regulations.\nKLAS discovered these findings after interviewing 186 medical provider organizations on which vendors have really made a difference in meeting their needs and advancing health IT and patient engagement for a brighter tomorrow.\nThe KLAS report focused on three main areas regarding patient portal strategies: enterprise, ambulatory, and EMR agnostic. A variety of factors associated with increasing patient portal adoption were addressed in the report including product performance and vendor guidance.\n\u201cValue-based care is forcing patient portals to evolve from being merely tools for reactive regulatory compliance to becoming valuable instruments that allow patients to proactively engage in their own care,\u201d said report author Coray Tate. \u201cProviders report that vendor guidance and functionality that patients find useful, such as billing and self-scheduling, are the most effective ways to encourage portal adoption among patients.\u201d\nA study published by the American Health Information Management Association (AHIMA) further outlines the use of the patient portal particularly among teenagers and parents. The researchers studied the attitudes of these two groups through one teen digital bulletin board, one parent digital bulletin board, and two focus groups for each faction. Videos and transcripts from the sessions were then analyzed.\nThe results showed that both teenagers and parents found that patient portals are beneficial and should be used to help teens better manage their own healthcare. Some teenagers were concerned that physicians would not be keeping certain information private and will let their parents see data that is meant to be protected. One parent said: \u201cThis kind of access will help my teen become much more interested in her healthcare and also motivate her to take control. And that will be great.\u201d\nWith greater teamwork between vendors, providers, and the patients themselves, there should be a rise in the use of portals and patient engagement.\nAs CMS Becomes Lenient, Providers Tackle Patient Engagement\nFrom ehrintelligence.com -\tApril 23, 2015 4:48 PM\nWhile patient engagement remains a top priority for many medical organizations across the country, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) released a proposed ruling modifying meaningful use requirements and specifically relenting on a major patient engagement objective.\nPreviously, Stage 2 Meaningful Use requirements called for 5 percent of a provider\u2019s patient base to access, download, and/or transmit their electronic health information, but now this objective has been changed for the years 2015 to 2017 in the proposed ruling. If the proposed rule becomes initiated as part of the meaningful use requirements for the next several years, eligible hospitals and physicians will need to ensure that just one patient views, downloads, or transmits their electronic medical data.\nEven though CMS may be changing some patient engagement requirements, healthcare providers are still geared toward improving patient satisfaction as well as medication adherence. At the 2015 HIMSS Annual Conference and Exhibition in Chicago, the company TowerView Health was announced the winner of the 9th annual Venture+ Forum pitch competition meant for startups, according to the company\u2019s press release.\nLast week, 15 startup companies were chosen to take part in pitching live presentations to a panel of investors and healthcare experts. TowerView Health pitched to the investors a solution that assists patients with chronic diseases manage their complicated medication schedules.\nTowerView\u2019s pillbox allows patients to receive a pre-filled medication tray directly from their pharmacist. This pillbox is capable of sending reminders to patients if they miss a dose or don\u2019t take a prescribed drug on time. The company works with health plans and at-risk providers to offer this particular service to patients for free.\n\u201cHIMSS and the mHealth Summit are focused on creating opportunities, providing business-building content, fostering partnerships and supporting entrepreneurs and early-stage companies developing innovative new health technologies. The Venture+ Forum is an excellent resource for companies to network and connect with healthcare providers, payers, channels, institutions and strategic dealmakers,\u201d Richard Scarfo, Vice President of Personal Connected Health Alliance at HIMSS, said in the press release.\nTowerView Health isn\u2019t the only organization looking to increase patient engagement. For example, HealthPrize Technologies, LLC and MeadWestvaco are collaborating on a new patient engagement and medication adherence platform, according to a news release.\nAnother organization called IntegraMed Fertility has adopted web-based patient engagement applications that are likely to revolutionize care and patient satisfaction through this network. The Patient PLUS portal from Anthelio Healthcare Solutions provides a much-desired self-service aspect that\u2019s missing from much of the medical industry. These self-service capabilities include automating appointment scheduling and pre-registration. It also allows for viewing and accessing medical histories, electronic records, laboratory results, and radiology reports while at home or in a healthcare setting. Secure messaging tools for strengthening the patient-physician relationship are also available through this portal.\n\u201cPatient PULSE is a perfect fit for these patient-centered clinics, as it provides a multitude of ways to personalize the patient portal experience, providing additional support and communication opportunities for patients while empowering them to take a more active role in their care,\u201d Asif Ahmad, CEO of Anthelio Healthcare Solutions, said in a public statement.\nModifications to Meaningful Use for 2015 through 2017\nFrom www.hitechanswers.net -\tApril 20, 2015 10:24 AM\nBetter Care, Smarter Spending and Healthier People\nThe proposed rule issued today is a critical step forward in helping to support the long-term goals of delivery system reform; especially those goals of a nationwide interoperable learning health system and patient-centered care. CMS is also simplifying the structure and reducing the reporting requirements for providers participating in the program by removing measures which have become duplicative, redundant, and reached wide-spread adoption (i.e., are \u201ctopped out\u201d). This will allow providers to refocus on the advanced use objectives and measures. These advanced measures are at the core of health IT supported health care which drives toward improving the way electronic health information is shared among providers and with their patients, enhancing the ability to measure quality and set improvement goals, and ultimately improving the way health care is delivered and experienced.\nThe proposed rule would streamline reporting requirements. To accomplish these goals, the NPRM proposes:\nReducing the overall number of objectives to focus on advanced use of EHRs;\nRemoving measures that have become redundant, duplicative or have reached wide-spread adoption;\nRealigning the reporting period beginning in 2015, so hospitals would participate on the calendar year instead of the fiscal year; and\nAllowing a 90 day reporting period in 2015 to accommodate the implementation of these proposed changes in 2015.\nSupporting Interoperability and the Adoption of Electronic Health Records\nThe EHR Incentive Programs support the adoption and meaningful use of certified EHR technology to allow providers and patients to exchange and access health information electronically and support interoperability broadly. The program supports interoperability by requiring the capture of data in structured formats as well as the exchange of data in standardized form as well as the sharing of this data electronically with other providers and with patients.\nThe proposed rule would reduce required reporting, allowing providers to focus on objectives which support advanced use of EHR technology and quality improvement, including health information exchange.\nImproving Outcomes for Patients\nThe rule would support improved outcomes and measurement of those outcomes. By proposing to simplify the reporting requirements, the proposed rule would allow providers to focus on objectives that support advanced use of EHR technology, including quality measurement and quality improvement. The rule supports providers leveraging their resources and health IT to coordinate care for patients, to provide patients with access to their health information, and to support data collection in a format that can be shared across multiple health care organizations.\nProgram Registration and Participation Milestones\nAs of March 1, 2015, more than 525,000 providers have registered to participate in the Medicare and Medicaid EHR Incentive Programs. In addition, more than 438, 000 eligible professionals, eligible hospitals, and CAHs have received an EHR incentive payment. As of the end of 2014, 95% of eligible hospitals and CAHs, and more than 62% of eligible professionals have successfully demonstrated meaningful use of certified EHR technology.\nCMS Issued a New Proposed Rule for EHR Incentive Programs\nMS issued a new proposed rulefor the Medicare and Medicaid EHR Incentive Programs to align Stage 1 and Stage 2 objectives and measures with the long-term proposals for Stage 3.\nThe modifications would allow providers to focus more closely on the advanced use of certified EHR technology to support health information exchange and quality improvement. The new rule proposes a change in the reporting period for meaningful use from one year to 90 days in 2015.\nProposed Changes for EHR Incentive Programs\nTogether with the proposed Stage 3 notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) issued on March 20, 2015, the proposed rules align and merge the \u201cstages\u201d of meaningful use requirements.\nThe proposed rule changes the programs by:\nStreamlining reporting by removing redundant, duplicative, and topped-out measures\nModifying patient action measures in Stage 2 objectives related to patient engagement\nAligning the EHR reporting period for eligible hospitals and CAHs with the full calendar year\nChanging the EHR reporting period in 2015 to a 90-day period to accommodate modifications\nMost Hospitals Meet Requirements of EHR Incentive Programs\nFrom ehrintelligence.com -\tApril 6, 2015 10:13 AM\nWhile the achievements of the EHR Incentive Programs are up for debate, the number of eligible hospitals participating in and attesting to meaningful use stages is higher than ever. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) reported that more than nine in 10 eligible hospitals have garnered meaningful use of certified health IT products.\nBased on hospital bed numbers, out of all large hospitals, 96 percent have achieved Stage 1 Meaningful Use requirements while 92 percent of medium-sized hospitals have met Stage 1. Even though 17 percent of small urban hospitals are not participating in the EHR Incentive Programs, as much as 78 percent of other hospitals in this category met Stage 1 Meaningful Use requirements. Additionally, 93 percent of small rural hospitals attested to meaningful use.\nChildren\u2019s hospitals, however, have lower numbers with only 57 percent attesting to Stage 1 Meaningful Use regulations. In addition to the large participation of eligible hospitals, CMS stated that 86 percent of eligible hospitals have now been paid through the Medicare EHR Incentive Program. The financial incentives were provided to 94 percent of all urban hospitals with 50 or more beds that successfully attested to meaningful use requirements.\nAdditionally, 70 percent of all urban hospitals with less than 50 beds have been paid while more than 90 percent of all rural hospitals were also granted financial incentives. With regard to both the Medicaid and Medicare EHR Incentive Programs, 94 percent of all eligible hospitals have been paid for meeting meaningful use requirements.\nThese eligible hospitals include short-term general, critical access, and children\u2019s hospitals. Along with demonstrating meaningful use, many facilities were also paid for adopting, implementing, and upgrading health IT systems through the Medicaid EHR Incentive Program.\nWhile many hospitals and healthcare providers are still focused on achieving Stage 2 Meaningful Use requirements, CMS and the Office of the National Coordinator for Health IT (ONC) released the Stage 3 Meaningful Use proposed rule several weeks ago. The comment period is currently open for stakeholders to give feedback.\nThe proposed rule continues to address EHR interoperability and health information exchange within the medical industry. There is some flexibility for providers established in the proposed rule, according to The National Law Review.\nOut of the eight objectives set forth for Stage 3 Meaningful Use requirements, healthcare providers would only need to attest to a particular portion of each measure and thereby attest to standards that are relevant to their practice.\nThe proposed rule also made significant inroads with advancing patient engagement agendas. For example, providers will gain more tools for communicating with patients such as the use of application program interfaces (APIs). Health IT tools like the patient portal would allow patients to access their medical information through their healthcare facility and permit the care team to communicate more efficiently with the patient.\nOne aspect under the proposed rule, however, may be difficult to achieve. Providers will need to ensure that 25 percent of their patients viewed, downloaded, or transmitted their electronic medical data. Currently, all eligible hospitals and eligible professionals are expected to attest to Stage 3 Meaningful Use requirements by January 1, 2018.\nGroups Call for Final Changes to Meaningful Use Requirements\nFrom ehrintelligence.com -\tAugust 10, 2015 11:14 AM\nA group of eight hospital associations have joined voices to ask the Department of Health & Human Services (HHS) and Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) to move forward with finalizing proposed changes to meaningful use requirements made earlier this year.\n\"As organizations representing hospitals and health systems across the country, we are writing to urge the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to release, in the immediate future, a final rule making modifications to the meaningful use requirements under the Medicare and Medicaid Electronic Health Record (EHR) Incentive Programs for fiscal years (FY) 2015 to 2017,\" they state in a letter to HHS Secretary Sylvia Mathews Burwell.\nCMS first indicated that it was considering reducing meaningful use requirements between 2015 and 2017 earlier this year. In January, Deputy Administrator for Innovation & Quality and Chief Medical Officer Patrick Conway, MD, authored a blog post revealing that the federal agency \"intended to be responsive to provider concerns about software implementation, information exchange readiness, and other related concerns in 2015.\"\nCMS did not release the proposed rule in question until April and the proposal has made little progress since then which has drawn consideration from multiple industry associations. Just last week, the College of Healthcare Information Management Executives (CHIME)called on the HHS Secretary to finalize the rule.\nNow it is the case that the following eight hospital associations have come together to make a similar request:\nAccording to these organization, the finalized rule is long overdue:\nThe rule is past due, given that it will affect the current program year for meaningful use. Indeed, under current rules, meaningful use applies to fiscal year performance for hospitals. FY 2015 ends on Sept. 30 \u2014 fewer than 60 days from now. We recognize that the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) also proposed to change meaningful use reporting for hospitals from a fiscal to a calendar year. Under that policy, the last possible reporting period would begin on Oct. 3. However, the proposed rule also allowed other reporting periods for earlier dates in FY 2015. Even if reporting is moved to a calendar year, hospitals need the certainty of a final rule now to determine the best reporting period to choose and begin the process of reviewing performance and ensuring they have met all of the revised requirements.\nThat is not to say that these hospital groups are content with the provisions of the proposed rule as is:\nOther proposed changes, such as making e-prescribing of discharge medications mandatory or adding new public health reporting measures, however, would make meeting Stage 2 more difficult. And, given the delay in the release of a final rule, they would be virtually impossible for hospitals to accommodate. Hospitals simply will not have sufficient time to understand the new requirements, work with their vendors to purchase and implement new or revised technology that would accommodate them, and invest in the training and work flow changes necessary to meet the new requirements.\nWith the closing of the fiscal year coming for eligible hospitals at the end of September, the hospital groups are concerned that the delayed release of the final rule would impose burdens on these providers and have far-reaching consequences.\n\"Widespread failure to meet meaningful use due to unrealistic regulatory requirements and insufficient technology will undermine hospitals\u2019 ability to use EHRs to improve care and involve patients in their care. It will also result in significant financial penalties for the hospital field. Therefore, we urge HHS to release a final rule as quickly as possible,\" they add.\nBracing for ICD-10 Implementation Deadline amid ICD-9 Shortfalls\nWith the ICD-10 implementation deadline only three and a half months away, it is beneficial for healthcare providers to continue their last-minute preparations for the coming ICD-10 transition. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) includes a variety of tools and resources for providers to utilize when getting ready for the ICD-10 implementation deadline.\nFrom the Road to 10 website to videos and expert columns, CMS is working toward preparing healthcare providers for the coming ICD-10 implementation deadline on October 1, 2015. In a video called \u201cICD-10: Getting from Here to There \u2013 Navigating the Road Ahead,\u201d Dr. Ricardo Martinez, Fellow of the American College of American Physicians, discussed how the International Classification of Diseases (ICD) version 10 is a significant improvement over the more outdated ICD-9 codes being utilized across healthcare facilities today.\nThe video also went over key steps that small medical practices should incorporate when preparing for the ICD-10 implementation deadline. In particular, providers will need to understand how the new codes will differ from the older ICD-9 codes.\n\u201cAs a practicing physician, I see the limitations of ICD-9 every day and why input from the medical community into the development of ICD-10 has been so valuable,\u201d Martinez explained. \u201cICD-9 is outdated \u2013 even antiquated by today\u2019s practice standards \u2013 and it limits the speed and accuracy with which I can gather information, gain insights, and, more importantly, care for my patients.\u201d\n\u201cToday, ICD-9 doesn\u2019t even address laterality, which signifies if a condition affects the left or the right limb,\u201d continued Martinez. \u201cOn a professional note, when recently faced with a complex patient who had an acute stroke in history of a previous stroke, we had to search through many old records to determine whether that old stroke was left or right side, wasting valuable time that could have been dedicated to patient treatment. With a single code, ICD-10 will provide us with more detail. Better data makes better care possible.\u201d\n\u201cTo help small provider practices and other healthcare professionals with the transition to ICD-10, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services is actively working with physicians, industry leaders, and others,\u201d Martinez mentioned. \u201cHealthcare has been using the international classification of diseases for over a century to identify and track diseases and help us improve our care for our patients.\u201d\n\u201cAlthough most of the world transitioned to ICD-10 years ago, the currently used version of ICD-9 is fundamentally unchanged since its implementation in the United States in 1979,\u201d Martinez stated. \u201cOne major limitation of ICD-9 is that it predates many modern technological advances and clinical terminology reflecting the use of CT scans, for example, which were also invented in 1979. Therefore, an update was necessary to account for these innovations in medicine.\u201d\n\u201cFor years, practitioners noted the need for increased specificity within clinical terminology, documentation, and coding to accurately represent the care provided to their patients,\u201d Martinez clarified. \u201cUnder sponsorship of the World Health Organization (WHO), a group of physicians developed the basic structure for ICD-10. Then, each specialty provided input on the subset of procedure or diagnosis code needed. Addressing both the changes in medicine and the need for increased specificity, ICD-10 will capture greater detail in the clinical encounter for each patient.\u201d\nCMS Official on Future of Health IT: \u201cIt\u2019s Time to Build Something Magnificent\u201d\nUpdated Clinical Quality Measures Revealed by CMS\nFrom ehrintelligence.com -\tMay 6, 2015 11:05 AM\nEligible hospitals and healthcare professionals looking to meet meaningful use requirements and obtain financial incentives from the Medicare and Medicaid EHR Incentive Programs will need to keep track of electronic clinical quality measures (eCQMs), which are part of clinical quality reporting programs such as the Physician Quality Reporting System (PQRS).\nToday the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) announced the annual update for the 2014 electronic clinical quality measures. Healthcare providers will need to utilize these updated measures to report 2016 quality data electronically for CMS quality reporting programs. These programs include PQRS, the EHR Incentive Programs, and the Inpatient Quality Reporting Program (IQR).EHR Incentive Programs\nEHRIntelligence.com recently spoke with William O\u2019Byrne, Executive Director of NJ-HITEC, to learn more about their PQRS data registry and how it helps providers successfully submit the data necessary to reach pay-for-value measures and meaningful use provisions.\n\u201cIn the past, payment structures have always been based on the number of services that physicians provide. If they do 20 things in one appointment, then they get paid for 20 different things or they get a bundled payment,\u201d O\u2019Byrne said. \u201cCMS has decided and are now implementing a whole new way of paying doctors and hospitals for healthcare. It\u2019s called Pay for Value. No longer will doctors be paid for adding up many different things they did during a visit.\u201d\n\u201cThey will now have to track clinical quality measures, which are the same thing that\u2019s in the PQRS,\u201d O\u2019Byrne stated. \u201cThey will also have to show that there\u2019s a change for the better in clinical quality measures. They will get paid for value instead of for individual items. The registry is the way that CMS is going to be determining how well or how badly the doctor is doing in the delivery of healthcare.\u201d\nThe reason CMS updates quality measures on an annual basis is to keep the specifications in agreement with modern clinical guidelines along with code systems. These measures need to stay pertinent and actionable within the current healthcare setting.\nTo keep track of the updated clinical quality measures, visit the CMS website to find 64 updated measures for eligible clinicians and 29 updated measures for eligible hospitals.QDM 4.1.2 based-HQMF version R 2.1 was used to re-specify each of the 2015 updated measure specifications.\nTo access the clinical quality measures for the 2014 EHR Incentive Programs, eligible professionals should click here. For more guidance on implementing the May 2015 electronic clinical quality measure specifications, eligible hospital providers and eligible healthcare professionals may benefit from the CMS Electronic Clinical Quality Measure Logic and Implementation Guidance.\nThe guidance offers a variety of information on the types of electronic clinical quality measures including patient-specific measures, episode-of-care measures, proportion measures, and continuous variable measures. Some of the measures include screening for clinical depression, screening for high blood pressure, HIV/AIDS treatments, assessment for complex chronic conditions, cancer screenings, diabetes foot examination, and medication management.\nThrough the CMS eCQM library, providers can download the whole set of measures in their relevant zip files. The Value Set Authority Center is also a useful resource, as it offers a simple way to download value sets for the eCQMs in multiple file formats. The value sets can be accessed as sets per measure or as a whole, unified set. Additionally, the Data Element Catalogue includes the complete list of 2014 eCQMs and value set names, CMS reported.\nCMS Releases Strategic Vision for Physician Quality Reporting Programs\nThe Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) has released its strategic vision for physician quality reporting programs, describing a long-term vision for CMS\u2019 physician quality reporting programs and a future for these programs to strive toward over the next several years.\nAccording to CMS, this vision acknowledges the constraints and requirements of existing physician quality reporting programs, as well as the role quality measurement plays in CMS\u2019 evolving approach to provider payment, which is moving from a purely fee-for-service (FFS) payment system to payment models that reward providers based on the quality and cost of care provided.\nThere are five principles that the federal agency believes will ensure that quality measurement and public reporting play a critical role in improving the healthcare delivered to millions of Americans:\nInput from patients, caregivers, and healthcare professionals will guide the programs.\nFeedback and data drives rapid cycle quality improvement.\nPublic reporting provides meaningful, transparent, and actionable information.\nQuality reporting programs rely on an aligned measure portfolio.\nQuality reporting and value-based purchasing program policies are aligned.\n\u201cCMS relies heavily on quality measurement and public reporting to facilitate the delivery of high quality care,\u201d according to a blog post from Patrick Conway, M.D., principal deputy administrator and chief medical officer at CMS. \u201cThis strategic vision articulates how we will build upon our successful physician quality reporting programs to reach a future-state where quality measurement and public reporting are optimized to help achieve the CMS quality strategy\u2019s goals and objectives, and therefore contribute to improved healthcare quality across the nation, including better care, smarter spending, and healthier people.\u201d\nAccording to the blog post, the strategic vision evolved out of the agency\u2019s desire to plan for the future in how it administers the physician quality reporting system (PQRS), physician feedback/value-based payment modifier program, and other physician quality reporting programs. With passage of legislation ending the Sustainable Growth Rate (SGR) formula, key components of these physician programs will serve as the foundation for the Merit-based Incentive Payment System, Conway added.\nTwo Elements of EHR Incentive Programs Gain Greater Adoption\nFrom ehrintelligence.com -\tApril 28, 2015 12:03 PM\nSome key elements of the Medicare and Medicaid EHR Incentive Programs include participation in the Physician Quality Reporting System (PQRS) and the electronic prescribing of patient medication. While the Electronic Prescribing (eRx) Incentive Program ended in 2013, it is still required through meaningful use of EHR systems under the EHR Incentive Programs to prescribe drugs electronically in order to receive a financial incentive and avoid payment penalties.\nThe American Hospital Association (AHA) reported that in 2013 almost 642,000 eligible healthcare professionals participated in PQRS, which is a 47 percent increase from the 2012 statistic. These numbers contain around 50 percent of eligible professionals across the United States. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) released these numbers in a new report last week.\nApproximately four out of 10 eligible professionals gained a financial incentive due to attesting to the PQRS objective under the EHR Incentive Programs. This is a rise of 9 percentage points from 2012. The financial incentive payments from both the Electronic Prescribing Incentive Program and the Physician Quality Reporting System reached $390.7 million in 2013. The amount of eligible professionals earning an eRx incentive rose slightly from 29 percent in 2012 to 32 percent in 2013.\nIn 2013, the PQRS incentive payments reached as high as $214,551,741, CMS reported. Essentially, the brief found that there is a rise in electronic prescribing use and the reporting of quality information across the healthcare sector.\nHowever, as many as 47,000 eligible providers will receive a 1.5 percent reduction as a payment penalty in their Part B Medicare Physician Fee Schedule disbursements in 2015. The report also found that 43 percent of eligible professionals who received a payment penalty treat no more than 25 Medicare beneficiaries per year. In order to avoid further payment reductions, eligible professionals and hospitals will need to successfully attest to the requirements in the meaningful use stages.\nFor those looking to avoid 2016 Medicare quality reporting payment penalties, CMS published a guide outlining the steps to take. The basic process is to submit a report on quality measures data and wait for CMS to analyze the relevant data to determine whether a financial incentive or payment adjustment is guaranteed. Once CMS has completed its role, the provider can access the feedback or quarterly report to determine whether an incentive is awarded, a payment adjustment is received, or a neutral state is met in which neither incentives nor adjustments are established.\nAlong with the typical doctors of medicine, dentists, dental surgeons, podiatrists, optometrists, and chiropractors are considered eligible professionals who can receive incentive payments for successfully attesting to meaningful use requirements under the EHR Incentive Programs. CMS also explains the importance of reporting quality measures which includes better understanding one\u2019s patient population, learning about one\u2019s performance on quality measures, and seeing where the highest-cost patients receive their care. Those looking to receive financial incentives from CMS would be wise to utilize electronic prescribing software and participate in the Physician Quality Reporting System.\nDoes Healthcare Fraud Impact Meaningful Use Audits?\nWhile the majority of medical providers are preparing for the ICD-10 transition deadline and are utilizing diagnostic coding accurately, there are certainly outliers who have attempted to defraud the healthcare system and the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS). These outliers may even affect the CMS\u2019 stance on meaningful use audits. Former Central Texas Hospital owner Tariq Mahmood is one such individual that has been sentenced to 135 months in federal prison last Monday for submitting false and fraudulent claims to healthcare payers including CMS.\nThe Cameron Herald reported that Mahmood was ordered to pay $599,128.02 to CMS and Blue Cross Blue Shield of Texas due to the violations of identity theft and fraudulent medical care claims. Mahmood had owned and operated a handful of hospitals across the state of Texas including Lake Whitney Medical Center, Central Texas Hospital in Cameron, Renaissance Terrell Hospital, Cozby Germany Hospital in Grand Saline, and Community General Hospital in Dilley.Meaningful Use Audits\nProsecutors Assistant U.S. Attorneys Nathaniel C. Kummerfeld, Frank Coan and Special Assistant U.S. Attorney Ken McGurk claimed during the trial that Mahmood and other individuals defrauded Medicare and Medicaid from January 2010 to April 2013 by submitting false identities and inexistent diagnoses and treatments.\nCurrently, ICD-9 diagnostic codes are being utilized by healthcare providers while the ICD-10 coding set will be required to use by October 1, 2015, which is the ICD-10 transition deadline. Mahmood, however, modified and incorrectly sequenced diagnostic codes to reflect the wrong medical conditions and diagnoses of his patients without checking their healthcare records. The names of Medicare beneficiaries and their associated numbers were also incorrectly and fraudulently used.\n\u201cAmericans enjoy the best health care in the world and the cost for this care is expensive,\u201d U.S. Attorney John M. Bales said in a statement.\u201cWhat we do not need is providers like Tariq Mahmood who masquerade as physicians who pretend to care about American health care but actually are determined to loot the Medicare Trust Fund. He is now being held to account, and I congratulate the prosecution team for a job very well done.\u201d\nFormer chief financial officer of the Cameron hospital and the Shelby Regional Medical Center Joe White will also be sentenced for defrauding the government and healthcare payers on Monday, April 27.\nWhite had made a false statement regarding the meaningful use achievements of the Shelby Regional Medical Center and claimed the hospital met relevant meaningful use requirements under the Medicare and Medicaid EHR Incentive Programs. This false statement led to the hospital being awarded $785,655 from Medicare.\nHealthcare professionals that defraud the medical payer system along with federal agencies lead to difficulties among honest providers who have successfully met meaningful use requirements and are preparing to accurately and authentically send ICD-10 coding claims to CMS by the ICD-10 transition deadline. For example, current meaningful use audits are burdening a variety of healthcare professionals who have received financial incentives from CMS for meeting relevant meaningful use requirements.\nThe American Academy of Family Physicians has asked CMS to offer a report that outlines the reasons why some providers have failed the meaningful use audits. Since healthcare fraud is a serious issue across the nation, federal agencies are likely to continue pursuing claims under the EHR Incentive Programs and filing additional meaningful use audits.Since healthcare fraud is a serious issue across the nation, federal agencies are likely to continue filing additional meaningful use audits.\nEHR Incentive Programs Modified in New Proposed Ruling\nThe Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) released a proposed rule on April 10 announcing specific modifications to the EHR Incentive Programs. The most important aspect of these modifications is the change to the reporting period in 2015 to a 90-day period in line with the calendar year and a similar EHR reporting period for the following year.\nPreviously, the meaningful use requirements would pose a financial penalty on eligible providers and hospitals that did not meet the objectives of the EHR Incentive Programs for a full calendar or fiscal year. CMS also proposed changing the reporting year for hospitals from the fiscal to the full calendar year in order to have both eligible professionals and hospitals reporting during the same time period.\nAnother area that the modified proposed rule affects is the patient action measures, which are part of the Stage 2 Meaningful Use requirements regarding patient engagement. The proposed rule simplifies the meaningful use regulations by removing certain reporting mandates that have become redundant or duplicative due to a variety of improvements in EHR function since the inception of the Medicare and Medicaid EHR Incentive Programs.\nComments to this proposed rule need to be sent to CMS electronically, by regular mail, via express mail, or by courier no later than 60 days after the publication of the ruling. The modifications bring greater focus to the advanced use of EHR systems and attempt to align the Stage 1 and Stage 2 Meaningful Use requirements from 2015 to 2017 with the Stage 3 Meaningful Use regulations, which are expected to be reported to CMS starting in 2018.\nThe document explains that the meaningful use stages under the EHR Incentive Programs continue to have an important goal of increasing EHR interoperability among providers and hospitals. In order to reduce redundancy, CMS is modifying the number of objectives and measures that providers need to meet to demonstrate meaningful use of EHR technology.\nThe proposed ruling document discusses how the requirement mandating that more than 5 percent of patients view and download their health information is causing undue burden on healthcare providers. CMS offers a major change to this requirement through the years 2015 to 2017. Under the modified proposed ruling, only one single patient will need to view, download, or transmit their medical information to a third party.\nAdditionally, CMS proposes the secure electronic messaging objective under Stage 2 Meaningful Use requirements to no longer have a 5 percent threshold but instead have a yes/no reporting requirement asking providers to attest to the statement: \u201cThe capability for patients to send and receive a secure electronic message was enabled during the EHR reporting period.\u201d\nAnother modified proposal CMS put forward is to perform a security risk analysis including addressing data encryptions in certified EHR technology and adopting security updates as necessary during the EHR reporting period.\nCMS hopes that these modifications will provide more flexibility to eligible hospitals and providers attempting to meet meaningful use requirements under the EHR Incentive Programs.\nStage 3 Meaningful Use Proposed Rule: Is More Time Needed?\nWith the comment period open for providing feedback on the Stage 3 Meaningful Use proposed rule, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) along with the Office of the National Coordinator for Health IT (ONC) are likely to receive a multitude of opinions regarding the revision of these meaningful use requirements.\nEHRIntelligence.com spoke with Bruce Eckert, National Practice Director at Beacon Partners, to get his perspective on the Stage 3 Meaningful Use proposed rule. Eckert mentioned how Stage 3 will likely advance the utilization of health IT tools even further.\n\u201cIf the Stage 3 requirements were widely adopted, it would be a significant increase in industry capabilities, a big advancement for healthcare IT and good for the industry in many ways,\u201d Eckert said. \u201cBut I think it\u2019s going to be very challenging to bring a significant number of providers up to that level.\u201d\nAdditionally, Eckert explained that requiring providers to reach the threshold of 25 percent of patients viewing and downloading their health information is a difficult stipulation to achieve. Currently, under Stage 2 Meaningful Use requirements, providers only need to ensure that 5 percent of patients view and access their health records electronically.\n\u201cWe as an industry have struggled with [a similar stipulation] under Stage 2, so the greatly increased percentage under Stage 3 is likely to be a challenge,\u201d Eckert stated. \u201cI think it\u2019s going to depend on the organization and the demographics. For many of our clients, we found that if they market their portal well, they will get well above the 5 percent of participation. [However,] 25 percent of participation based on today\u2019s experience is high. It\u2019ll take effort.\u201d\n\u201cThe counter to that is that policymakers are looking ahead to 2018,\u201d the Beacon Partners representative continued. \u201cIn almost three years, society will continue migrating to online activities and part of that is using online services for health-related activities. It\u2019ll be a challenge but I have a bit of optimism about it.\u201d\nWhen asked whether there will likely be many comments asking to lower this percentage during the comment period, Eckert replied in the affirmative and encourages healthcare organizations to express their opinions formally to CMS during the comment period. The director went on to discuss the importance of health information exchange (HIE) within the Stage 3 Meaningful Use proposed rule.\n\u201cIt\u2019s really important that our industry figure out how to [accomplish HIE]. It\u2019s a big piece to the puzzle of care coordination and improving the quality of care. We have to make it work one way or another,\u201d said Eckert. \u201cRight now, under Stage 2, Direct Protocols turned out to not be ready for wide-spread usage. I think it will be by Stage 3. By leveraging Direct, I think we can achieve the Stage 3 level by 2018.\u201d\nEckert stated that he is more optimistic about this objective under the Stage 3 Meaningful Use proposed rule and is \u201cfairly positive about healthcare exchange.\u201d However, Eckert was not as hopeful about most providers meeting all Stage 3 Meaningful Use requirements by the January 1, 2018 deadline.\n\u201cI think it\u2019s going to be tough [to meet the deadline.] The reason is because we\u2019re going to run into the same problem that we did with Stage 2. The problem is the [short] timeline for the vendors to develop the products,\u201d Eckert explained. \u201cFrom today until January 2018, there is about 33 months left. That is a little less time than there was from the [release of the] 2014 CEHRT proposed rule until the October 2014 deadline for most organizations to implement 2014 CEHRT.\u201d\n\u201cCMS released the flexibility rule in late 2014 to grant extra room at that point because many vendors were either not ready or had gotten systems out late and providers were not able to fully implement these tools,\u201d said Eckert. \u201cI can see the same scenario developing here because the vendor timeline to create the considerably advanced capabilities is relatively short. The big rush to get these capabilities deployed in time is going to be a challenge.\u201d\nEckert also discussed the increased focus on patient engagement under the Stage 3 Meaningful Use proposed rule. Physicians will have more options and tools available to communicate with patients.\n\u201cStudies that have been done in the past about patients using electronic messaging finds that it replaces the telephone,\u201d Eckert mentioned. \u201cPatients use electronic communication to ask questions or send information to providers that they would have done via telephone. Electronic messaging is more time efficient for the physician\u2019s office than the telephone is. Providers will really appreciate the change in the Stage 3 rule around secure electronic messaging.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "You are here: Home / Readers Forum / Activism in Challenging Times\nActivism in Challenging Times\nOur mark on the world will be characterized not just by what we stand against but also by what we stand for.\nOver the past month, we have celebrated the start to the Jewish new year and the series of holidays that includes Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur, Sukkot and Simchat Torah. This year, I find myself even more reflective than usual, following a summer of great pain and turmoil and in the face of ongoing global challenges.\nWhat I have always loved about these holidays is that while they invite intensely personal moments of reflection and atonement, we are expected to celebrate them as a community. Together, we are reminded of the fragility of life. Together we are reminded of all for which we must be thankful. Together we are reminded of how we, as individuals and as a community, can resolve to do better.\nIndeed, there is no better moment in the Jewish calendar to re-commit ourselves to the holy work of repairing our world and doing everything possible to make a positive difference. After all, service to others is one of the pillars upon which Jewish life and tradition rests.\nThis means that we are willing to do our part to foster a virtuous cycle of giving back and paying forward. It means we are willing to take responsibility for both enhancing our own lives and for bettering the lives of others. And it means that we are willing to mobilize people around the issues that keep us up at night and get us out of bed in the morning.\nAfter all, if we don\u2019t take a stand, we cannot expect that others will.\nFor me, one way in which I am walking my talk is in response to the Metropolitan Opera\u2019s decision to present the The Death of Klinghoffer, an opera that presents a singular viewpoint about a horrific act of terrorism, contains language that can only be described as anti-Semitic and goes so far as to imply moral equivalence between the Nazis and Jews.\nThis is not an objection I make lightly. I have long supported arts and culture as an avenue for encouraging engagement with and discourse on difficult and complex subjects. I deeply appreciate the role of art and artists in pushing cultural boundaries that allow communities to address pressing social and political issues.\nHowever, I do not believe that presenting this opera will achieve these ends. As many have written, including the First Amendment lawyer, Floyd Abrams: this play is not mere artistic expression but rather the glorification of terrorism and hatred under the guise of free speech. It scares me that productions like this one will set us on a slippery slope toward allowing hatred and bigotry to once again become an acceptable part of mainstream discourse.\nAnd so, like many of you, I cannot sit by and watch these events unfold without doing something. We have simply worked far too long and too hard to give a voice to marginalized communities and to rid ourselves of the scourge of racism, anti-Semitism and bigotry of all kinds to start moving backwards.\nI have joined with many others in writing a letter and signing a petition urging the Met to cancel this production or, at the very least, provide the proper context and balance it demands through workshops, seminars and creative campaigns. I will also be participating in Monday\u2019s public protest in New York where I will join many community leaders who are lending their voices to this cause.\nWhatever the result of our efforts, I know that this will not be the last challenge we face in standing up to anti-Semitism and other forms of hate and bigotry around the world.\nI also recognize that not everyone will be driven to take a stand on this particular issue. We each have to find our inner activist and devote our time and talent to making our mark on the issues that we believe in. And while we cannot do everything, we can each do something.\nAs I tell the young people I have the privilege of meeting and working with, you have the power to change the world, but the change has to start with you, working as one in a community of many.\nUltimately, our mark on the world will be characterized not just by what we stand against but also by what we stand for: progress through innovation, big ideas, bold action and hard work. Let us be defined by our commitment to building inclusive communities. By our belief that we can change the world and the expectation that we will. By our love for Israel, by our commitment to the Jewish people and by a willingness to listen to, learn from, and challenge each other.\nChange is possible but it requires every one of us to take action.\nIt is my hope that you carry your resolutions for the new year into the year ahead and beyond. It is my hope that in response to the injustice you see in the world, in whatever form you notice it, you will brave the wind, the rain and the naysayers to fight for the spring of tomorrow.\nLynn Schusterman is the Founder and Co-Chair of the Charles and Lynn Schusterman Family Foundation.",

        "raw_content": "A dog\u2019s cognitive abilities allows the animal to process all types of information, plus learn tricks and commands from their owners. Cognition in dogs is important at any age and individuals who have an older dog should familiarize themselves with the signs of cognitive ability loss. As this occurs, individuals can help sharpen their dog\u2019s mind with a few simple tips. Read the frequently asked questions below to learn more information about the cognitive abilities of dogs.\nWhat are the different kinds of cognitive abilities in dogs?\nDogs have various cognitive abilities including reasoning, memory and communication skills. Many dog owners teach their canine companions to perform tricks and obey commands. Numerous studies have been done to test the memories and communication skills of dogs. Some of these studies were done to test their memory by having the dogs identify objects only through hearing the name of the object. It\u2019s also been proven that dogs can respond to hand gestures. Dogs are also adept at displaying empathy for humans and it\u2019s been confirmed through research that dogs can tell the difference between various human emotions.\nHow does a dog\u2019s cognitive abilities decrease with age?\nAs dogs grow into their senior years they often have a decline in their cognitive abilities. Dog owners may notice a change in their dog\u2019s behavior as the animal ages. These changes may include an increase in sleep, irritability, confusion and having accidents inside the house.\nWhat can dog owners do to keep their dog\u2019s cognitive abilities sharp?\nIndividuals can help to promote healthy cognition in their dogs at any age by making exercise a part of their daily routine. Exercise not only keeps a dog physically healthy, but it also stimulates their brain, which is important for cognitive health. Dog owners can play scent games by hiding food so their dog will have to find it by using their sense of smell. This not only sharpens a canine\u2019s mind, but it\u2019s also a fun game for the dog to play.\nVisit http://nuvetonline.com/ to learn about nutritional supplements that can promote cognitive health in dogs. NuVet products are FDA approved and formulated with healthy nutrients, such as vitamins, minerals, amino acids, antioxidants, herbs and enzymes, that are important for a dog\u2019s health and well-being.",

        "raw_content": "Hong Kong Man Used Forgery To Get Government Jobs \u2013 And Even Applied To ICAC\n(Photo: Facebook/Journo Digest)\nA Hong Kong man confessed about forging his Australian university graduate certificate. This resulted in at least five government offices paying him over HK$1.13 million (US$144,000) in salary over nine years.\nAccording to South China Morning Post, the District Court head Poon Hoi-kan also applied to a clerical position at the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC). The latter is responsible for investigating frauds in the metro.\nIt was in December 2015 (two years after) when he finally got arrested, following the graft-busted rejected his application. It was only after a corruption investigation when his offenses were found out.\nNow a business development executive who owns an accounting firm, Poon pleaded guilty on Wednesday to at least four counts of utilizing copies of false instruments. He also got another two counts for obtaining a pecuniary advantage by deception, while six other charges were left on the court file.\nAccording to defense counsel Daniel Marash SC, Poon admitted about being regretful of his \"stupid mistake\" and has since repaid all HK$1,133 million involved in the case.\n\"He's not a bad man,\" Marash said arguing for a non-custodial sentence. \"This is an exceptional case.\"\nBut as far as the district judge Pang Chung-ping is concerned, the case significantly involved repeat offenses. It is not just a momentary lapse of judgment, which Poon's legal attorney tries to insinuate.\nYahoo! News reports that Poon will be facing up to seven years in prison. Sentencing was adjourned to September 19.\nThe case centered on a bachelor's degree certificate in applied science from the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology, which the accused failed to acquire after his enrolment in February 1999.\nMarash further revealed that his client studied for three years. However, he did not manage to pass some subjects and was deemed not a graduate of the university.\nStill, Poon was able to get his hands on a copy of the certificate while serving as a clerk with the Education Bureau's Teacher Registration Team sometime between 2002 and 2004.\nProsecutors said that he covered the name on the certificate with that of his own and, later on, produced a forged copy dated December 19, 2001.\nThe falsified document was further utilized in about six job applications, all of which were made from May 2004 to June 2013. This eventually led to Poon successfully getting a job in five of the applications, which were submitted to the Home Affairs Department and the Student Financial Assistance Agency.\nAs for his application to ICAC in 2013, it was ultimately rejected after he refused to cooperate with the vetting procedures.\nMarash argued none of the jobs Poon applied for required the skills involved in the false degree and said his client was overqualified for those positions.\nHong Kong Customs To Use Anti-Gang Laws Against Smuggling Of Endangered Species\nBritish Worker Files Discrimination Lawsuit After Being Called A \u2018Gweilo\u2019 At ...\nConsider Alternatives to Pangolin Scales, TCM Experts Urge in Hong Kong Conferen ...",

        "raw_content": "The 124th China Import and Export Fair (namely Canton Fair) will open in Guangzhou on October 15th. A total of 480 companies from Foshan will participate in 124th Canyon Fair with 1,497 booths including 496 brands. The number of Foshan exhibitors is ahead of the prefecture-level cities in Guangdong.\nIt is found that compared with the previous session, the number of exhibitors, booths and brands has increased slightly. Foshan products with traditional advantages are competitive, such as home appliances, building materials, furniture and lighting, which are widely welcomed by foreign merchants. Midea Group, Galanz, Chigo, Dongpeng and many other Foshan companies will display the updated products, actively utilize the Canton Fair platform to raise orders and open up the international market.\nMonalisa Tiles will continue to exhibit new products this year. In addition to displaying traditional sheet products, Monalisa also focuses on the application of ceramic tiles in the integral home furnishing by creating kitchen scenes. Huo Rongquan, vice chairman of the Monalisa Tiles, said that although the company's exports in the first three quarters have increased, it is necessary to constantly innovate to meet the challenges facing the increased import tariffs made by many countries and the implementation of anti-dumping and other trade barriers against Chinese ceramics.\nThe 124th Canton Fair will be held in three phases. Goods that in the first phase (October 15th - October 19th) will mainly be exhibited: electronics and home appliances, lighting, vehicles and accessories, machinery, hardware tools, building materials, chemical products, energy. Products to be exhibited in the second phase (October 23-October 27) include daily consumer goods, gifts, home decorations products; in the third phase (October 31-November 4th) products will be exhibited covering textile and clothing, shoes, office bags and leisure products, medicine & health care and food products.\n480 Foshan enterprises to exhibit in the 124th Canton Fair",

        "raw_content": "On certain nights at high latitudes shifting patterns of light may been seen in the sky. These are the aurorae. The bright lights are caused by high-energy particles streaming out from the Sun - the solar wind - striking the Earth's upper atmosphere or ionosphere. Energy from these electrically charged particles is converted into light, forming visible glows, rays, arcs, bands and veils. This light is usually greenish, but is sometimes red as well. The charged particles are attracted by the Earth's magnetic field. Near the magnetic poles, the Earth's magnetic field becomes much stronger. Consequently, it is nearer the magnetic poles that the aurorae are most frequently witnessed.\nThe power of aurorae depends mostly on the strength of the solar wind. During an intense solar storm, the wind can intensify very strongly, and aurorae may be seen at lower latitudes further from the magnetic poles. Every 11 years, at the peak of the sunspot cycle there is an increase in intensity of the solar wind, and with it, an increase in frequency and intensity of auroral displays.\nAurorae occur in both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. In the Northern Hemisphere, the display is known as the aurora borealis, or northern lights. In the Southern Hemisphere, it is called the aurora australis, or southern lights. The term aurora polaris, polar lights, is a general name for both. Aurorae are usually visible from within the Arctic or Antarctic circles - Antarctica, Greenland, Iceland and Northern regions of Canada, Alaska, Scandinavia and Russia. During times of more intense activity on the Sun, auroral storms can be viewed at lower latitudes such as northern Scotland and most of Norway, Sweden and Finland. Very rarely displays can be seen from northerly parts of Europe and the United States.",

        "raw_content": "\ufeffBusiness IT support services - Why Outsource?\nAs a business owner, one of the many service needs you may require is infrastructure support. But, what exactly does this entail? What does business IT support services mean? How do you go about choosing a service provider, or should you hire a full time staff to run these services internally? Making sure you fully understand what IT support will do for you, and why you should consider outsourcing, rather than hiring a full time team member(s) for such services, will not only ensure high end support, but also ensures you are going to save on the cost of such service needs. \u200b\nWhat are business IT support services?\nIT services refers to all technical expertise in your organisation pertaining to applications your business uses to operate. These applications enable your organisation to operate smoothly, allow you to create and manage, and allow you to access and optimise information which is being transmitted through your system. Building a website. running a website, designing webpages, ensuring the servers are properly operating so your site doesn't go down, are just a few of the services which encompass what \"IT services\" are.\nToday business IT services encompass a wide range of activities. IT is short for information technology, and therefore entails all technological aspects of your business. It also includes the communications end of your business (i.e., how you collect and transmit data online to your end user and customers). If your company's IT infrastructure isn't up and running at all times, this can result in slowed down web speeds, it can result in loss of data, it can result in your website going down (server errors, 404 website errors, etc). All of this means loss of business and revenues. For these reasons, you need to make sure all information which is being transmitted, and all of the services which run through the IT end of your business, are fully functional and operational at all times. \u200b\nWhat services are included in business IT support services?\nAs a business owner, the answer to this question is a little more open ended than \"What are IT services?\" It will depend on a number of factors. First off the size of your business (small or large business) will determine the type of services and support required. Depending on the type of information being transmitted, you may also require additional encryption support namely if you run an e commerce site where customers are inputting personal information and credit card information on your site.\nRegardless of the type of business you run, or the size of your business, \"IT support services\" encompasses a broad spectrum of services which a company can perform for you. Some of the services that might be included under this umbrella term include:\nWebsite services: Designing your site, running the site, maintenance of your site, modifying pages, etc.\nSoftware/hardware support: These services can be as basic as installing new servers within the company's infrastructure, to performing major system updates or hardware installation for a larger scale business.\nProgramming: Whether it is programming code for your site, or encryption keys for safety on an e commerce page, the right IT support team can perform such services.\nData support: Installing, updating, saving, placing data in the cloud, and otherwise securing such data in the properly allocated areas, are a few services performed by IT experts.\nIn addition to these functions, your IT support team can also offer virus protection software, they can include software policies to help prevent data loss or theft, can perform system updates, and nearly any other type of service which are considered critical to your company's information and communications end.\nAgain, depending on the size of your business, the type of customer you service, the product/service you sell, and the type of security you require, there are a number of package options you can choose from when it comes to determining your IT and support service needs as a business owner.\nWhy Outsource IT Support?\n\u200b\u200bSo, you are considering hiring a full time team or staff member to run the IT end of your business. Not only is this costly for you as a business owner to maintain full time staff members, more often than not it is not necessary. So, why pay such high pay wages to employees who aren't going to be utilised on a daily basis and may not perform all IT support services at the highest level for your organisation?\nInstead of hiring full time staff, you might want to consider the option to outsource these services. First off, this is going to save your business a great deal of money. Basically when you outsource, you only pay for services you need. So, you aren't paying someone to work every day, when you don't have to. Another benefit of outsourcing is that you find true experts. The right support company is not only going to have fully trained and licensed IT experts, they are also going to have IT specialists that work for them.

He is also wanted by Ivory Coast.\n\"I am not an advocate of weapons, I never maintained a single militia. If the ICC wants to invite me for having organised protest marches, I have no problem appearing before the ICC,\" he said.\n\"I am ready to go before the ICC so that we may finally know in Ivory Coast who did what.\"\nFormer ICC chief prosecutor Luis Moreno-Ocampo had suggested before he even launched a probe into the violence, which according to the United Nations left at least 3,000 people dead, that Ble Goude could be in his sights.\n\"If as a consequence of Mr. Charles Ble Goude's speeches, there is massive violence, he could be prosecuted,\" Moreno-Ocampo had said in December 2010, when the post-election crisis was still escalating.\nGbagbo's former youth minister had galvanised support for the veteran leader during the crisis with fiery speeches urging mass mobilisation against what he called pro-Ouattara \"rebels\" and their foreign backers France and the UN.\nEighteen months on, Ble Goude said he was constantly watching his back, convinced that he was being tracked.\nHe declined to reveal where he had spent the first few months of his exile, amid rumours he had found refuge in Ghana and Gambia.\n\"I am not on the run... just in hiding,\" he said.\nBle Goude also told AFP he was \"ready to face justice\" in Ivory Coast but accused Ouattara of imposing \"victor's justice\".\n\"Keeping all Gbagbo supporters behind bars, sending them into exile or persecuting them doesn't strike me as being the right move,\" he said, urging Ouattara's administration to free prisoners and unfreeze the assets of former regime officials.\nBle Goude has proposed a meeting with the president of the country's reconciliation commission, former prime minister Charles Konan Banny.\n\"I propose that we meet, Banny and I, in South Africa to discuss the Ivory Coast\", he said, saying that that country had become \"an example of reconciliation\" after apartheid.\nUN peacekeepers killed in Ivory Coast ambush\nIvorian PM steps down to make way for change\nClashes turn deadly in eastern Ivory Coast\nCouple held by Somali pirates returns to S.

Most such cases end with payment of multi-million dollar ransoms, which security experts say only inspires more hostage-taking.\nSouth Africa's foreign minister, Maite Nkoana-Mashabane, who met the couple at the airport Wednesday, told reporters the hostage-taking could only end once stability was brought to Somalia.

This article documents how the Falasha, Ethiopian Jews who have been brought into Israel in several mass transfer operations, have found themselves relegated to an underclass. They are not only racially discriminated against in housing, employment, education, the army and even in the practice of their religion, but have also been unwittingly used to bolster illegal settlements.\nKeywords: Beta Israel, Ethiopian Jews, Falasha, IDF, Israeli racism, Operation Joshua, Operation Moses, Operation Solomon, Petah Tikva\nLast year, 2011, marked the twentieth anniversary of the largest mass transfer of Ethiopian Jews from Africa to Israel. In a series of covert operations in the late 1980s and early 1990s, thousands of Ethiopian Jews - also known as Beta Israel (House of Israel) or Falasha (literally 'immigrant' in Hebrew) - were airlifted secretly out of famine-stricken and war-torn Ethiopia and neighbouring Sudan and taken to the Holy Land. At the time, these 'rescue' missions were mired in controversy. Hailed by some Zionists as the inevitable homecoming of African Jews to the 'birthplace' of Judaism, to others it was a cynical ploy by the Israeli government to alter the demographics of Palestine. The airlifts were, literally, a means of importing Jews to the contested land en masse, no matter where they were from, in an effort to 'improve' the ratio of immigrant Israelis to native Palestinians. But now, twenty years on, how well have Ethiopian Jews assimilated into Israeli society? Has their communal story been one of success and full integration or have they been used primarily to boost Israel's policy of colonising more of Palestine; to provide a ready pool of conscripts for the Israel Defence Forces (IDF); to provide a workforce for low-status manual labour; and to be treated like relative outcasts in the principally white Jewish community of Israel? The latter seems to have been the predominant outcome, with the promises of brotherhood and unity failing to materialise.\nAlthough there are undoubtedly some individual success stories, the picture is pretty grim for many, if not most, Falasha in Israel. According to a report in Newsweek:\nPoverty is three times higher among Ethiopians than among other Jewish Israelis, and unemployment is twice as high. Ethiopian youngsters are much more likely to drop out of school and are vastly under-represented at the country's universities. One place they are over-represented is in jail: juvenile delinquency runs four times higher in the community than among Israelis overall.1\nIn addition, of the more than 120,000 Ethiopian Jews living in Israel today (half of whom were born in Africa and all of whom account for less than 2 per cent of its 7.7 million population), many are consigned to live either in ghettos or illegal settlements. Hundreds of complaints of racism are made by the Ethiopian community to charities and organisations like Tebeka every year and there is clearly a huge imbalance in the treatment of black Jews and non-black Jews. Despite hundreds of millions of dollars being spent by American and Israeli donors specifically to help the Falasha to 'integrate' into Israeli society, a black underclass has essentially been created in Israel, in which 65 per cent of Ethiopian children in Israel live below the poverty line.\nGiven that the largest Ethiopian diaspora community in the world is to be found in Israel, its treatment should be a matter of great concern to all Ethiopians. It should also be a matter of concern and interest to anyone trying to understand the true nature of Israeli culture and society. There is irrefutable evidence of endemic racism within Israeli society. If Israeli Jews discriminate so badly against other Jews simply because they are black, it should be no surprise that their treatment of Palestinians - whether Christian or Muslim - is many times worse.\nArrival of Ethiopian Jews in Israel\nMany Ethiopian Jews consider themselves to be direct descendants of King Solomon and the Queen of Sheba and, as such, believe that they practise the purest form of Judaism. Ethiopian Jews have lived in Africa for millennia and have practised Judaism in their own language and according to their own customs for generations. However, when Israel was founded in 1948, they were prohibited from going to live there because they were not recognised as 'true' Jews by Israel's rabbinical authorities. That changed in 1975, when the Israeli government of Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin gave official recognition to the Falasha as Jews. This was crucial for the community, as it finally gave its members the 'right' to make Aliyah (immigration) to the Holy Land with their families under the Israeli Law of Return.\nThis controversial rabbinical recognition led to a mass exodus of Jews from Ethiopia to Israel in the 1980s and 1990s, and their numbers have gone from just 100 Ethiopian Jews in Israel in 1977 to over 120,000 today. While some people will say that the Ethiopian impetus for this transfer was purely a religious desire to return to the 'homeland', in reality there are many other practical, non-religious reasons that can explain why Ethiopian Jews were so desperate to flee to Israel, such as the extreme droughts and famines that plagued Ethiopia, leading to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people.\nAnother reason to leave was the huge political turmoil in Ethiopia during this period. Emperor Haile Selassie was toppled in 1974 and Colonel Mengistu Haile Mariam took his place. Backed by Cuba and the Soviet Union, communism took hold with accompanying anti-religious sentiment and anti-Semitic tendencies. Mengistu agreed to the transfer of a small number of Jews to Israel as part of an arms deal under which Israel would supply him with weapons, but, for the most part, Jews were prohibited from going to Israel. It is no wonder, therefore, that the sudden recognition of Falasha as 'real' Jews was seen as a golden ticket by many Ethiopians and that they put their lives on the line to get their families to Israel. A move from war-torn, famine-ravaged Ethiopia, with the promise of a warm welcome in the land of milk and honey, must have been hugely tempting.\nOperations Moses (1984), Joshua (1985) and Solomon (1991)In order to escape the political turmoil in Ethiopia in the early 1980s, thousands of people fled on foot to the relative safety of refugee camps in Sudan. The journey was perilous and approximately 4,000 people died en route. It was from here that Operation Moses really began. Over a six-week period, as part of a covert operation co-ordinated by the Israeli Army and the CIA, 8,000 Ethiopian Jews were transported from Sudan to Israel. The airlift came to a sudden halt, however, when news of the mission was made public. Many families were subsequently divided, with some family members newly arrived in Israel, some stranded in Sudan and others left behind in Ethiopia.\nIn a follow-up operation in 1985, around 800 Jews were flown from Sudan to Israel as part of a CIA mission (Operation Joshua, arranged by the then vice-president George Bush). The last and largest of the mass transfer missions was Operation Solomon. A series of non-stop flights took place over a thirty-six-hour period, involving thirty-four El-Al jumbo jets, with an estimated 14,324 Ethiopian Jews being transferred to Israel.\nAn uneasy 'homecoming'\nThe whole spate of 'rescues' was very controversial. Questions were asked about Israel's motives. Was this 'rescue' mission really inspired by a religious desire to bring Judaism's followers to the 'promised land' or was it a more nefarious scheme to import Jews in order to shift the demographics of Israel and the occupied Palestinian territories in favour of Jewish settlers over Palestinians? Whatever the primary motive - religious, pragmatic or political - once the Ethiopians were there, after an epic struggle to get to Israel, it was clear that there would be major difficulties in integrating into Israeli society.\nAs soon as they arrived, all Ethiopians were sent to 'absorption centres'. These housing/training/educational facilities were, and still are, said to be a necessary stepping stone into Israeli society. It is here that immigrants are taught Hebrew and the Israeli 'way of life'. As many of the Ethiopians came from drought-ravaged villages, where they had no running water or electricity, it was felt, by some, that this was necessary to introduce them gradually to life in Israel. However, there have been concerns about the living conditions in the centres and some people have observed that they look more like prisons than 'welcome' centres. Many protests have been staged by Ethiopian residents over the years, complaining about the 'economic distress and harsh living conditions'2 within these facilities.\nFurthermore, instead of these being the temporary halfway house that many envisaged, many people have spent years living there in poor conditions. It is common to hear statements such as:\nWhen I was in Ethiopia, I thought I would be happy in Israel ... but I've suffered in an absorption centre for six years. I asked for a house in Tel Aviv, but there is nothing to be done. I'm not happy in Israel. I think in Ethiopia I could find good work and in the future I think I will go to Canada or Ethiopia.3\nIt is not uncommon to read reports in the press with headlines such as, 'Ethiopian Jews fail to integrate into Israeli life'.4 Sadly, over the years, the situation has become so dire for some that it has led to depression and suicide.\nSo what is life like for Falasha in Israel? To start with, the standard of living among the Falasha community is one of the lowest in the country, apart from that of Arabs. For example, according to the most up-to-date information from the Ministry of Welfare and Social Services, 'two-thirds of all Ethiopian immigrants are in need of assistance and in some towns, close to 90 per cent require such care. Research has also shown that close to 75 per cent of Ethiopian families live below the poverty line.'5 Unemployment is around 70 per cent.\nAccording to statistics by the Israel Association for Ethiopian Jews: '65% of Ethiopian Israeli children live in poverty and a third are at risk; only 21% of Ethiopian Israelis receive high school matriculations at a university entry level; and unemployment among Ethiopian Israelis is double the rate of the general Jewish population.' In one Al-Jazeera report, a Falasha man described the Ethiopian-only neighbourhoods in Israel as 'ghettos'.6\nRacism in Israel towards non-white Jews is not subtle. There is abundant evidence of blatant institutionalised racism in schools, hospitals, housing associations and within the workforce. This racism and open discrimination also pervade Israeli society at a grassroots level. From a bus driver in 2009 refusing to let a black woman on the bus, saying: 'I don't allow Kushim [derogatory term for black people] on board. Were there buses in Ethiopia? In Ethiopia you didn't even have shoes and here you do, so why don't you walk?';7 to reports of settlers becoming hostile if arrested by a black IDF soldier; Israeli children throwing stones at Ethiopian soldiers; and ethnic slurs being directed at Ethiopians, including frequent reports of jeers such as, 'You are just niggers'.8\nA spokesperson for the Israel Association for Ethiopian Jews (IAEJ), Avi Maspin, said that:\nracism is a word that I have feared using until now, because I did not believe that it could exist in Israel in 2007, but the time has come to call a spade a spade. Israeli society is profoundly infected by racism and unfortunately there is no suitable punishment for racism in Israel.9\nAccording to a report in Ynet News, 'The facts seem to show that these attitudes are not confined to specific areas of the country but rather represent a collective phenomenon within Israeli society.'10 The racism that has infected many in Israel can be seen in YouTube videos such as 'South Tel Aviv Is on Fire'.\nInstead of embracing the ethnic diversity of Jews in Israel and allowing the Falasha to stay true to their African heritage, it seems that many are being forced to leave behind any traces of their Ethiopian legacy. According to one young woman, Yuvi Tashome, who came to Israel during Operation Moses in 1984:\nAs an Ethiopian immigrant in Israel, you have to erase everything Ethiopian in order to be Israeli. For example, when you first get here they erase your name and give you a new one. When we arrived they asked me my name and I replied 'Yuvnot'. The girl didn't understand what I said, so she said 'Okay, from now on you're going to be Rahel'. So I was Rahel until after my army service.11\nBut even this is not enough; try as they might to become fully-fledged Israeli citizens, the mere colour of their skin is enough to ensure that Ethiopians are always seen as outsiders and inferior to non-black Jews. According to one report, this discrimination even carries on after death; some 'graves in a Jewish cemetery are separated according to the colour of the corpses; a fence has been built between the graves of Ethiopian Jews and the others in the graveyard'.12\nThe racism extends to such basic issues as where the Falasha can and cannot live. Some areas have a 'policy' of not selling apartments to non-white Jews. In 2009, one estate agent looking for accommodation for his newly arrived clients was shocked to be told by the owner of a building in Ashkelon:\nThere are no Ethiopians in this area at all, and there won't be any. This is our policy. I have no problem with them living somewhere else ... Anyone can come, but not Ethiopians. This is how it is in the entire building; at least I hope it is, in order to preserve the apartment's value and the building's value ... We've kept this rule of not selling to Ethiopians for 16 years. I can't speak for the entire house, but this is how I feel ... It immediately drops the apartment's value ... their apartments drop 30% in value ... I'm no expert in the details, but the price goes down if Ethiopians come. I don't care who lives here, I'm not racist. But when I leave the building where I have lived for the past 16 years, the rest of the tenants will look at me as a traitor because I sold to Ethiopians. I don't want to ruin my relations with my friends.'13\nHealth: the blood scandal and birth control\nOne of the most shocking scandals illustrating the treatment of Ethiopian Jews in Israel was the discovery, in 1996, that blood donated by them was being thrown out by the hospitals. When it was revealed that this had been going on secretly for years, apparently due to irrational fears that their blood would be contaminated with HIV, thousands of Ethiopian Jews demonstrated and clashed with police outside Prime Minister Shimon Peres's office. This act of deception and racial profiling marked a new low point in the relationship between Ethiopian Jews and Israelis. As one protester said:\nWe fight and die in the army, go on to study, but that is not enough. It's inconceivable that a person comes to donate blood and is tricked into thinking that he is saving another life ... He sits, a needle enters his body, a considerable amount of blood is drawn from him, and yet the minute he turns his head they toss his blood in the garbage.14\nWhat is even more surprising, however, is that, despite the outcry in the 1990s, this insult was repeated again ten years later. In November 2006, over 200 people took part in a protest outside government offices in Israel to protest against the 'decision by the Health Ministry to discard donated Ethiopian blood. \"We won't allow our blood to be spilled like this. The Torah says that blood is the soul. How can this country treat us, fellow Jews, this way?\" asked Gadi Yabarken, one of the protest's organizers.'15\nIn another health-related controversy, it was reported by Jonathan Cook in 2010 that: 'Health officials in Israel are subjecting many female Ethiopian immigrants to a controversial long-term birth control drug in what Israeli women's groups allege is a racist policy to reduce the number of black babies.'16 Figures showed that 57 per cent of those prescribed Depo Provera in Israel were Ethiopian women, despite the fact that Falasha represent only around 2 per cent of the entire Israeli population.\n'This is about reducing the number of births in a community that is black and mostly poor,' said Hedva Eyal, the author of the report by Woman to Woman, a feminist organization based in Haifa, in northern Israel. 'The unspoken policy is that only children who are white and Ashkenazi are wanted in Israel,' she said ... The contraceptive's reputation has also been tarnished by its association with South Africa, where the apartheid government had used it, often coercively, to limit the fertility of black women ... 'The answers we received from officials demonstrated overt racism', Ms Eyal added. 'They suggested that Ethiopian women should be treated not as individuals, but as a collective group whose reproduction needs controlling.'17\nEthiopians suffer from discrimination at every stage of the education system. From nursery onwards, they are frequently faced with the blatant racism of teachers and Israeli educational institutions as a whole. Very few Ethiopian high school students go on to get places at university. For example, the parents of one supposedly disruptive student were told by his teacher that the appropriate punishment was his removal from the class, claiming that, 'this Ethiopian boy is a nuisance not only to other Ethiopians but to the Israelis in the class as well'.18 In another case, 'in a kindergarten in southern Israel Ethiopian children were removed from the school after other children's parents protested that there were too many of them.'19\nIn an elementary school in Petah Tikva in 2007, four Ethiopian students were put in a separate classroom and kept segregated from the other students. The father of one student said, 'We are being discriminated against for being black and powerless.' Ynet News reported that:\nEthiopian immigrants were consequently placed in a separate classroom at the very end of the school corridor. One teacher alone was allotted for teaching them all of the various academic subjects. Moreover, the girls were assigned different recess hours to their peers, and given cab fare home so that they would not 'overly socialize' with the rest of the girls.20\nRacial slurs are also common within the education system. One student, 18-year-old Asher Balata, was expelled just a few months shy of his high school graduation after hitting his principal 'because he called me a nigger'.21 While many schools try to justify discrimination against Ethiopian students on the grounds that they are behind educationally, many Falasha parents feel that racism is the true basis for their children's mistreatment. As one father put it, unsure whether or not his son would be allowed to enrol in school for the new term, if 'they won't accept the boy ... it's because he's black'.22\nThat so many Falasha children live in poverty also has an impact on their education. For instance, most Falasha children do not register for any sort of nursery or pre-school programmes before the age of 4, primarily because their parents cannot afford the places, the fees for which can be as much as $350 per child per month. This inevitably places them at an educational disadvantage compared to their white Israeli peers who can afford to pay. A disproportionately high number of Falasha children drop out of high school before graduation in order to try to enter the workforce as early as possible, in an attempt to subsidise their families' already paltry incomes.\nDiscrimination in the workforce and the army\nDiscrimination against Ethiopian Jews in the workforce is also rampant. According to a report in the Telegraph, a recent study revealed that '53 percent of employers preferred not to hire Ethiopians, who nevertheless still fared better than Arabs with an 83 percent rejection rate. The study also found that 70 percent of employers tended not to promote Ethiopians.'23 According to another study, out of 4,500 Falasha who graduated with degrees, only 15 per cent managed to find work in their field, with others finding primarily temporary, unrelated work.24 'It boils down to racism', said Adam Baruch, a Falasha activist. 'I have applied for jobs and when the employer hears my voice over the phone there is no problem. But when I turn up for the interview with my black skin, suddenly the job is no longer available.'25 There is also said to be an 'unfair testing system used by the Civil Service, with culturally biased tests automatically disqualifying Ethiopian-born candidates from qualifying for certain government positions.'26\nWhile Palestinians are on the receiving end of the bulk of the Israeli Army's venom and blood lust, within the ranks of the army itself, it is Ethiopian Jews who are being subjected to degrading treatment and humiliation on a regular basis. Over the years, there have been many reports of Ethiopian army personnel who have committed suicide27 as a direct result of their treatment. Examples of racist treatment include one soldier being 'thrown out of an army clinic by a major who told subordinates to post a sign saying \"No Kushis [blacks] allowed\". \"I went to my room and cried for an hour and a half\"', the humiliated soldier said.28\nAccording to Max Blumenthal, 'by 1997, six years after an airlift brought the second wave of Ethiopian immigrants to Israel, Ethiopian soldiers accounted for 10 percent of army suicides - but comprised only four tenths of a percent of the army. Racism was a key factor in the epidemic.'29 One 22-year-old soldier killed himself after telling his niece, 'Every morning when I get to the base, six soldiers are waiting for me who clap their hands and yell: the Kushi is here!'30\nPawns in a political game\nAs Ethiopian immigration continued into the 1990s, another controversy that has received relatively little attention is the way that many new immigrants have been used to flesh out the number of settlers in the West Bank. Israeli settlements are illegal. The UK's minister for the Middle East, Alistair Burt, reaffirmed this on 20 May 2011, when he said of settlement activity, 'it is illegal under international law and should stop'. Thus, the practice of sending new immigrants to live in illegal settlements clearly puts them in an invidious position. Adisu Massala, the first Ethiopian-born Knesset member, said: 'Netanyahu is exploiting the Ethiopians. He is using them to encourage settlers, to show that he wants settlements more than peace.'31 Many do not know anything about the settlement controversy and are just happy to be in 'Israel' and, for others, even if they wanted to object to living in a settlement, as Adisu says, 'They are afraid to say anything ... some are afraid they'll be sent back'. Dedi Zucker, another legislator, said that he 'would not object if the Ethiopians chose to live in the settlements of their own accord, but they had no choice in this. They were taken to Ofra, not knowing where they were going ... from their first day in Israel, they are settlers. And they don't even know what that is.'32\nReligious insensitivities\nAnother major area of sensitivity has been the way the Falasha have been made to feel that they are in some way lesser Jews in relation to their faith and practice. Upon their arrival, Beta Israel have been forced to undergo a renewed 'conversion'. Among other things, this consisted of symbolic circumcision (now no longer required) and a ritual bath (immersion in a Mikveh) as a symbolic renewal of their Jewish identity. This was understandably taken as a clear insult, given that many Ethiopians consider themselves to be direct descendants of King Solomon and the Queen of Sheba and, therefore, of a purer bloodline than many of the European Jews who were calling for their 'conversion'. However, under the Law of Return, 'the Ethiopian Jews must undergo a process of conversion to Judaism in order to receive all the financial benefits of new immigrants'33 and, thus, must concede, however degrading the process may be.\nEven when the Falasha have fulfilled the initial requirements, they are still not left to practise freely in the way that they would if they were truly free and equal in Israel. In some areas, for example, there are no Ethiopian synagogues at all. In an interview, one Falasha, Kess Hadane, said:\nI go to the Israeli synagogue and we pray in Hebrew, not Ge'ez. I was a respected religious leader and in charge of twenty-five synagogues in Ambover. Here I am only allowed to assist a rabbi in one synagogue. There is not even an Ethiopian synagogue in Bet Shemesh, where there are more than a hundred families.34\nEven beyond that, some of Israel's stronger orthodox groups, such as Habad, do not 'recognize Ethiopians as Jews or allow their children into its kindergartens'.35 The Ashkenazi Jews of European descent regard themselves as being at the top, with Sephardic or Mizrahi and Ethiopian Jews being at the bottom of the scale - if they are considered as being on it at all. There has never been a Mizrahi or Sephardic prime minister, for example, and the vast majority of Knesset members are Ashkenazi.\nIncreasingly, Israel is being seen as a racist and exclusionist state. Its subjugation and abuse of Palestinians living within Israel (20 per cent of the population), as well as those living under the Israeli military occupation of the Occupied Palestinian Territories, are well documented and have led to it being called an apartheid state. What is less well known, however, is just how ingrained and insidious racism in Israel actually is, in that it not only extends to Palestinian Christians and Muslims, but also to Jews who come from ethnic minority backgrounds. Jews who were once supposedly welcomed into Israel as brothers and sisters in faith now find themselves relegated to the underclass in Israel. While they may be placed far above Palestinians, they are nonetheless far below non-black Jews.\nIn Ethiopia, it is true that the Falasha had to contend with poverty, famine and drought, but, in Israel, people who once had strong familial and societal ties are finding their community plagued with high levels of unemployment, a shift in social hierarchies, an erosion of their traditions, an increased level of criminalisation of their youth and other social ills. They are finding themselves confined to ghettos, discriminated against in the workplace, insulted by scandals such as the blood donation fiasco and subjected to interracial attacks, which appear increasingly prevalent. It appears that elements of Israeli society are crumbling from within, and endemic and institutionalised racism is certainly a contributing factor.\nSource: sagepublications.com\n1 Joanna Chen, Newsweek (20 March 2011).\n2 Yael Branovsky, 'Ethiopian immigrants protest dire absorption conditions', Ynet News\n(9 November 2008).\n3 Linda Gradstein, 'Ethiopian Jews fail to integrate into Israeli life', Sun-Sentinel (24 September 1989).\n5 Ruth Eglash, 'Two Ethiopians enter Knesset, Israel's parliament', Jerusalem Post (20 May 2008).\n6 See: 'Israel's Ethiopian migrants struggle to integrate', available at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jdnLCfAddiA&NR=1&feature=fvwp(visited 5 November 2009).\n7 Daniel Edelson, 'Egged bus driver to Ethiopian: no blacks allowed', Ynet News (11 August 2009).\n8 See: http://www.blackpresence.co.uk/2009/03/ethiopians-discover-what-israelis-really-think/\n9 Yael Branovsky, 'Ethiopian community hit hard by discrimination', Ynet News (7 December 2007).\n11 James Horrox, 'Beta Israel: orphans of circumstance', Jewcy (30 June 2008).\n12 'Even in death, Ethiopian Jews face racism from other Jews', Middle East Monitor (28 December 2010).\n13 Shmulik Hadad, 'Ethiopian tenants?

REUTERS/Kimimasa Mayama)\nThe last fugitive of the Japanese doomsday cult Aum that carried out deadly gas attacks in the Tokyo subway in 1995 was arrested on Friday after 17 years on the run, Japanese police said. Police found 54-year-old Katsuya Takahashi, suspected of murder and attempted murder in the gas attack that left 12 dead and thousands ill, at a comic cafe in Tokyo, a police spokesman said.\n\u201cWith Takahashi\u2019s arrest, all Aum Shinrikyo suspects wanted by the national police have been arrested,\u201d a spokesman from Tokyo\u2019s Metropolitan Police Department said, referring to the cult\u2019s name that means \u201csupreme truth sect\u201d. Thirteen ex-Aum members are on death row, including former leader Shoko Asahara.\nThe cult mixed Buddhist and Hindu meditation with apocalyptic teachings and staged a series of crimes including simultaneous sarin gas attacks on Tokyo subway trains during rush hour in March 1995. Sarin is a lethal nerve gas developed by the Nazis in World War Two.\n\u201cI acted based on the instructions from the top officials and did not know some of the objectives,\u201d the police spokesman quoted Takahashi as saying after his arrest.\nThe Japanese public has been obsessed with the whereabouts of Takahashi, with television repeatedly showing images of him caught on a surveillance camera after another former cult member was arrested earlier this month.\nEthiopia Leaders Call \"our country will be the graveyard of homosexuality\"\nEthiopian government officials, religious leaders and civil representatives have declared their opposition to LGBT rights and condemned homosexuality as a western epidemic during an anti-gay conference\nA national conference entitled \u2018Homosexuality and its associated social disastrous consequences\u2019 on Saturday (9 June) was held in the newly built African Union headquarters, in Ethiopia\u2019s capital, Addis Ababa.\nThe conference was organised by Dr Seyoum Antonius, president of United for Life, a non-governmental organization which describes itself as Christian, pro-life and backing the sanctity of marriage.\nOver 2,000 participants attended the conference, including the main religious leaders of Ethiopia, government officials, members of the Ethiopian Parliament, leaders of political parties, youth organizations and representatives from other civil societies.\nDuring the conference an Ethiopian government spokesman, who GSN has not been able to identify, stated: \u2018Recently, the US President Barak Obama, British Prime Minster David Cameron and other western leaders are trying to establish ties between aid and the rights of homosexuals, but this will never happen in Ethiopia.\n\u2018We don\u2019t want their aid as long as it is related to homosexuality, I assure you that Ethiopia has no room for homosexuality and our country will be the graveyard of homosexuality.\u2019\nAbune Paulos, the Patriarch of the Ethiopian Orthodox Church said: \u2018Ethiopians do not need their identity to be dictated for them from outside no matter how wealthy or powerful the forces applying the pressure were.\u2019\nHe also read a statement of an interfaith grouping of Ethiopia\u2019s religious leaders condemning homosexuality as an unnatural and calling on international bodies to stop attempting to \u2018subvert\u2019 Ethiopian traditions.\nThe statement called upon the Ethiopian government to punish \u2018those who are found infested with sodomite activities\u2019 and called for raising awareness how to protect society from this \u2018infestation\u2019.\nDr Seyoum Antonius presented findings of his \u2018study\u2019 that \u2018proved\u2019 that homosexuality is a result of inappropriate upbringing and leads to STDs, HIV and \u2018severe psychological disorders\u2019.\nThis directly contradicts the view of professional medical and psychological bodies around the world, including the World Health Organization.\nThe conference also heard a \u2018witness\u2019 account of a young Ethiopian man who was forcefully raped at the age of six and consequently \u2018infected with the homosexual disease for 20 years\u2019 and is also living with AIDS.

        "raw_content": "Single Mom\u2019s Victorious Legal Journey for Disabled Adult Son Finally at an End\nThis week we reveal the happy ending to one devoted mother\u2019s ceaseless struggle to obtain child support for her disabled adult son. It started with the landmark 2017 decision we wrote about previously, which prompted the Ontario government to amend the Family Law Act in response to the mother\u2019s constitutional challenge. Before this decision, only adult children who were still attending school, or whose parents had been formally married and divorced, were eligible for support.\nAt that time the mother had argued before the court \u2013 successfully \u2013 that this distinction between married and unmarried parents was unconstitutional, and that she should be able to claim support from her son\u2019s father in her particular case. Under a ruling released last week, the mother has finally obtained a court order awarding her support in line with the new legal principle that she herself fought for.\nThe situation sparking this noteworthy legal change involved the mother and her now 23-year-old son for whom she provided full-time care. Her son\u2019s disabilities left him unable to attend school, and he was unable to work and support himself. In the time since the son had turned 18, she had been receiving Ontario Disability Support Program (ODSP) benefits for him, in addition to funding from both Development Services Ontario and a local community living agency. However, those benefits did not cover her son\u2019s added medical and recreational expenses costing about $1,400 per month.\nThe mother turned to her son\u2019s father \u2013 whom she never married \u2013 to contribute $800 per month, in keeping with the amounts set out by the Tables derived from the Child Support Guidelines. By agreement, it was later dropped to $630 a month, but he later applied to the court to lower that even further or terminate his obligation entirely, pointing to the fact that his son was already receiving ODSP and other benefits.\nLast week, the Ontario court ordered him to pay monthly support of $518.14, for the balance of her son\u2019s life. The court added that this amount was not based on Table amounts, but rather on a \u201cbroader analysis, considering all of his needs, some of which are his daily basic needs and some of which might be considered traditionally \u2026 extras,\u201d and one which focused on both parents sharing the responsibility toward their adult child equally.\nIn doing so, the court brought an end to the mother\u2019s efforts to not only address son\u2019s unique needs, but also change the law for the benefit of parents in similar situations. In that prior constitutionally-focused ruling from 2017, the court had held that the wording of the relevant Family Law Act provisions relating to child support improperly connected an adult child\u2019s eligibility to child support to his or her attending school \u2013 and yet did not allow for support due to any other reasons, such as disability. That judicial conclusion prompted the government to pass legislative amendments that went into force in December of 2017. Now, adult children in Ontario who are unable to withdraw from the care of their parent, due to illness or any other reason, are now eligible to claim support.\nThis latest ruling applies that principle, and ends one mother\u2019s long journey for justice.\nCoates v.

        "raw_content": "The shutdown failure has come to epitomize the Trump presidency. Over a month ago, it seemed he had given up with no fight\u2014a spending bill was on its way through Congress that would include no wall funding and seemingly put an end to any optimism about his presidency. At the eleventh hour, he put his foot down, and decided that he was willing to shut down the government to try to extract a deal for the wall. Fumbling through missteps and missed opportunities, Trump had once again done just enough to string his base along and keep his presidency alive.\nHe used the right rhetoric and took preliminary steps in the right direction, but when it came time for action, he backed down, leaving the goal unrealized. Instead of following his instincts, and the desire of his base, Trump listened to people like Jared Kushner and other deep state agents who do not have his best interest in mind.\nAfter the failure, Trump did what has come to most define his presidency: whine on Twitter. He aired his grievances against the media for the umpteenth time. He made the case for the wall for the umpteenth time. The battle lines have already been drawn. Everyone knows what the media is up to. Everyone knows what the wall would do and what it symbolizes. People either support or oppose these things\u2014no one is being persuaded.\nThe time for the argument is over. It is time for action, and Trump has shown that he is not a man of action.\nHe is doing the same thing he did before becoming president, back when the moment called for a fierce debate over immigration. Now that the moment calls for a president who can effectively wield his power to take action on the issue, President Trump is nowhere to be found, only a watered-down Campaign Trump, tweeting into the ether, as if he has no power to do what he promised. It\u2019s as if he is trying to make the media portrayal of him as an incompetent, tantrum-throwing child as accurate as possible. Far from the authoritarian figure he was supposed to be, Trump has proven himself to be timid and deferential in the hour of action\u2014a bumbling figure easily manipulated by powers he ought to enforce his will upon.\nThe moment has passed, and he has been exposed as a bluffing buffoon.\nIf Trump is going to redeem himself, it is going to be through serious action. No longer do \u201cbased\u201d tweets about South Africa, Covington Catholic, the media, or anything else have the ability to string his support along. It is obvious what needs to happen next: A National Emergency declaration (or Insurrection Act or Public Law 85-804 invocation) to build the wall in its entirety. Then, an executive order on birthright citizenship must be issued. After that, serious measures need to be taken to reduce legal immigration and quicken the pace at which illegal aliens are deported. These actions could afford him a second term, where he could continue down the lengthy list of actions that he was mandated to take by the voters who elected him to protect America during the existential crisis it now exists in.\nTrump is unaware, unwilling, or unable to perform these duties.\nHis capitulation has gotten him nothing but contempt from both sides. His enemies mocked him and took a victory lap, while his supporters wondered how he could cave so weakly. When it came time for bold action, Trump delivered less than nothing.",

        "title": "\ufeff Federation Internationale D'education Phisique",
        "raw_content": "The idea to create an international Physical Education organization appeared for the first time during the International Congress of Physical Education in Paris (France), which took place between August 30th and September 6th 1900. A \u2018Permanent International Physical Education Technical Commission' was created then, with some of the great personalities in the Physical Education world at the time, among which were: Mosso (Italy) as the President, Demeny (France) Fosseprez (Belgium), Cabezas (Chile), Kier (Denmark), Chryssafis (Greece), Tongres (Sweden). Delegates from 16 countries participated in the commission, whose objectives were aimed at the qualification of university faculty members. The \"Institute Internationale d'Education Physique\" was created later, during the Odens\u00e9e International Congress, between July 7th and 10th, 1911.\nThe goals of this institute were: a) To make progress in the Physical Education Science and its practical applications, concentrating results of studies and experiments carried out in the world and providing directions for new investigations. b) To spread among the people culture the principle that Physical Education must cooperate with Intellectual and Moral Education.\nThe Institute actions were obviously interrupted during World War I. Nevertheless, the Physical Education internationalization gains new life and emerges again in 1923, with the creation of the F\u00e9d\u00e9ration Internationale de Gymnastique Educative, F.I.G.E. That very act it considered to be FIEP's cornerstone. The F.I.G.E was officially organized on July 2nd, 1923, during Brussels International Congress. That new institution gathered Federations, Leagues and Organizations from several countries. Its first president was General LEFEBURE (Belgium).\nIn 1924, LEFEBURE transferred the presidential office to Colonel EIMAR NERMAM (Sweden), who remained in the position until 1935.\nIn February 1931, the Federation published its first Journal issue, which turned out to be one of the first specialized magazines dedicated to Physical Education in the world. It is still published nowadays.\nIn 1935, Major JOSEPH G. THULIN (Sweden) was elected President, and his mandate lasted until 1958. In the Istanbul General Assembly l, during the World Congress held from the 2nd to the 9th of August, 1953, Thulin's proposal was accepted and the Federation has its name changed to F\u00e9d\u00e9ration Internationale d\u2019Education Physique \u2013 FIEP.\nIn Brussels (Belgium) General Assembly take took place on the 4th and 5th of July, 1958, President Thulin resigns because of his age and Prof. Dr. Antonio Leal D\u2019Oliveira (Portugal) takes office and remains in the position until 1970. By the end of the 60s FIEP's relevance in the world scenery was an encouragement to write the FIEP - PHYSICAL EDUCATION WORLD MANIFESTO, which was made public in 1970. That Manifesto laid the concepts of Physical Education and guided its paths worldwide after being translated into every existing language.\nDr. PIERRE SEURIN (France) was FIEP President from 1970 to 1983. He achieved great development for the institution, which extended its scoped of action throughout all the continents by settling delegations in more than one hundred countries, and by promoting a great number of events. His administration consolidated the action of F\u00e9d\u00e9ration Internationale D\u2019Education Physique in the fields of Physical Education, Sports for All, and Scientific Activities.\nIn 1984, after Dr. Seurin's death, Prof. JOHN C. ANDREWS (England) was elected World President and remained in that position until January 2000. He consolidated FIEP as a world organization that attends the highest number of countries, accomplished great impulse to the institution in Latin America, created the Prince Faisal Scientific Prize and also strengthened ties with Arabian countries.\nIn Foz do Igua\u00e7u (Brazil) General Assembly, held during the FIEP / 2000 \u2013Physical Education World Congress that took place from the 9th to the 13th of January, 2000, Prof. Dr. Manoel Jos\u00e9 Gomes Tubino (Brazil) was elected World President. During that event, the FIEP 2000- PHYSICAL EDUCATION WORLD MANIFESTO was launched. After 30 years, the new document expands the concept of Physical Education after having understood that it is a right of all.",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Europe \u00bb Netherlands \u00bb Eredivisie \u00bb Euroborg\nTeam: Groningen\nAddress: Boumaboulevard 41, 9723 ZS , Groningen, Netherlands\nEuroborg has been the home stadium of local football team FC Groningen since opening in 2006. Located towards the south-east of the city, the 22,329 capacity ground features distinctive green seats which reflects the club\u2019s traditional colours. In 2013 a permanent railway station opened allowing fans easier access to the stadium.\nPlans to relocate FC Groningen away from Oosterparkstadion were formulated in latter half of the 1990s when the club believed that the standard of their stadium was beginning to fall behind those of other teams across the Netherlands, particularly with UEFA\u2019s increasingly stringent safety legislation and preference for seating after a series of high-profile incidents such as Heysel in the preceding decade.\nThe actual physical construction work took place between 2004-2005 but it took at least a decade to successfully get local businesses on board to invest in the wider business and retail complex (Europa Park) which Euroborg stadium was set to be at the heart of. Seen as crucial to generating the requisite finance, numerous redesigns of the stadium took place delaying the project due to the ever changing budget the designers Wiel Arets had to work with.\nFor example, the stadium was initially envisioned with a retractable roof but by the time the inaugural match was held against rivals SC Heerenveen on the 13th January 2006, a standard and more affordable design was favoured. The stadium currently consists of two tiers, with the club stating that there is the possibility of adding a third ring which will increase the capacity to over 33,000 although this wouldn\u2019t be large enough for the World Cup and thus wasn\u2019t considered as part of the country\u2019s 2018 bid.\nAs well construction taking longer than expected due to a defective concrete casting machine, Euroborg stadium suffered further bad luck when a small fire broke out in the North stand during a 2008 match against Ajax. Whilst no permanent damage was done to the ground, 28 spectators were taken to hospital although there were no fatalities.\nBelow is a seating plan for Groningen\u2019s Stadion Euroborg:\nEuroborg Stadion is comprised of four stands: North, East, South and West.\nAway fans or \u201cGastenvakken\u201d are usually housed within the south-east corner of Euroborg within sections O, P and Q. The seating extends across both tiers of seating and is marked out by a small section of fencing, with views of the pitch decent throughout.\nYou can access Gate 3 where the seats are from Gideonweg and the bridge over Oude Stramspoor or simply take the main Boumaboulevard and then walk around the stadium.\nAlthough this map doesn\u2019t suggest it, there are plenty of pubs in the city centre, and at the stadium there is the Hattrick bar for home supporters.\nFC Groningen operate a fanshop known as the Fan Corner along Boumaboulevard, and with the exception of the club\u2019s online store, it is hands down the best place to purchase official merchandise for \u201cThe Pride of the North\u201d.\nSaturday: 10.00 am \u2013 5:00 pm\nMatchdays: 30 minutes before kick-off and for 1 hour after full time\nInside look at one of FC Groningen\u2019s fan shops at the stadium. The shop is 4oo m2, spans two floors, and is wall to wall green.\nStadium tours of Euroborg are usually conducted on Wednesdays at 4.30 pm each week providing there is enough people interested, and cost \u20ac9.00 for adults, \u20ac7.50 for children. Fully-guided my knowledgeable members of staff, the tour lasts around 90 minutes and takes in all the special areas including players\u2019 tunnel and dressing room.\nFor more information or to book your place on the tour you can either send an email to [email protected] or complete this form on the website.\nTickets usually go on sale to the general public two weeks before the event on the nearest Friday from 9.00 pm onwards, and can either be purchased online, at the club\u2019s shop \u2013 Fan Corner Groningen or since March 2015 from over 33 retailers around the city.\nEredivisie Prices\nCorners (A, AA, AZ, X, HZ): \u20ac25.00\nGoal ends: \u20ac21.00\nPiet Fransen Tribune: \u20ac25.00-29.00\nNote: There is a price increase of around three euros for high-profile matches against Ajax, AZ, PSV, FC Twente, Heerenveen and Feyenoord.\nStadion Euroborg sits just over 2.5 km from Groningen\u2019s historic city centre which means that it can be walked to a very convenient 30 minutes or so. Situated within an out of town business park, it\u2019s still highly accessible from the city centre unlike a lot of other modern stadia.\nStadion Euroborg\u2019s exterior blends in seamlessly with the surrounding environment although perhaps this is due to the lightning when the picture was taken!\nThe stadium is served by its own train station known as Groningen Europapark. You an catch trains from Groningen\u2019s Main railway station to the Euroborg in just over 2 minutes for a couple of euros which explains its popularity on matchdays.\nThe bus stop just north of the stadium on Boumaboulevard is served by bus numbers 5, 12, and 73 with the number 5 departing from Grote Markt Square in the centre of Groningen.\nBoumaboulevard 41, 9723 ZS Groningen, Netherlands\nCar Park 1 at the stadium costs \u20ac1.50 per hour, and car park 2 costs \u20ac5.00 for the duration of the match and the time either side of this. Both parking lots are well signposted upon arrival at the stadium with stewards usually on hands to direct you to vacant spaces.\nA parking sign for Stadion Euroborg.\nGroningen Airport Eelde is located 10km south of the city centre, and is served by a number of low-cost airlines including Wizz Air, Transavia and Flybe which flies out of London-Southend.\nUpon landing you can travel into the city in just under 40 minutes by catching Bus number 2 which runs twice hourly during the day. It cost \u20ac5.00 for a single, and is probably the easiest way unless you plan on renting a car or getting a taxi.\nThere is the Euroborg Horeca stadium at the stadium, however it is expensive and difficult to book compared to the other accommodation options back in Groningen city centre. You will find a good range of hotels here north of the Eemskanaal Noordzijde such as Hampshire Hotel, The Martini and Hotel De Doelan.",

        "raw_content": "EBVT III and wolf tones #2700705\nAspiring OP\nThe tuner is coming next week to give my six-month-old Ritmuller GH170 R its third tuning. When I requested EBVT III -- my only option for the first two tunings was ET -- he said no one has ever specified a particular temperament and asked why I wanted EBVT III. I told him that I wanted to hear the emotional and psychological impact of modulation to distant keys. I've never actually played a piano tuned to a temperament other than ET, and I think EBVT III will allow me to hear color that's built into the music I play but is kind of washed out by ET. He said EBVT III wouldn't be a problem because he can punch it right into his ETD.\nI sent him the chart showing the cent sequence EBVT III follows as well as a link to this forum.\nWhen the tuner phoned to adjust our appointment time, I asked if he'd looked at this forum and what did he think of EBVT III. He said he was familiar with it, had tried it on his own piano, and didn't care for it because of wolf tones, or borderline wolf tones, but would be happy to apply it to my piano.\nI searched for \"wolf\" and \"wolf tone\" here and couldn't find either among the discussions of EBVT III. Maybe it's there and I missed it. Either way, I thought EBVT III sidesteps or at least sharply minimizes the wolf tone issue.\nAm I wrong? Also, can EBVT III be achieved by relying heavily on an ETD?\nThanks very much for your thoughts.\nGold Medalist, 1st through 35th (inclusive) Annual International CD Player Competition\nThe EBVTIII temperament has been discussed often and in depth...\nThere are comments that you may refer to from Mr. Brimmer's website about this temperament...\nI have my opinions about such things, and have expressed them- and there have been arguments over this topic.\nIn my opinion, it is only acceptable to do this in circumstances such as yours where you wish to hear what it would sound like-- others may argue that they as the tuner have the understanding and should be able to decide when to use what temperament.\nI personally have not much desire (as yet) to switch from the standard issue ET (equal temperament) that is recognized as the standard, and the best (equally distributing the calculations, rather than producing \"wolves\").\nAs far as I understand, EBVTIII produces unequal situations with intervals (\"all of the RBI's are uneven anyway...\"...\"...All of that which is necessary to perfect the ET tuning is unnecessary when tuning the EBVT...\").\nI have also this thing about telling the clients that they can experience \"the color\" and \"the emotion\" that the Victorian composers intended, when one is not tuning to the standard pitch of the time (which didn't truly exist- it ranged widely)... Also, instruments have improved so vastly beyond compare. Hard to expect that anyone could experience what it was these people of that time were experiencing with an A-440 pitch, and a modern-day instrument... You may think it sounds nice-- but so does ET. It is a matter of a person's wishes and likes.\nET (equal temperament) was settled upon for a reason. If you don't want equal distribution, and don't mind \"character\" (i.e. oddly wild beats here and there) in certain intervals, in order to get \"color\" and \"emotion\" from certain other intervals-- well go for it.\nI just don't like the sales pitch that comes with this stuff... And this post is one reason why.\nPeople get sold on the idea of \"color\" and \"emotion\" of the composer that was \"lost with the coming of ET\"!\nThe unsuspecting tuner now has to deal with an issue of explaining these things, in the kindest way possible. AND, has to try to not look bad by performing an EBVTIII, while hoping that when the client says, \"that's a bit wild there isn't it\", he isn't put down for not doing something correctly.\nAgain, let me be clear: if it is open and up-front about just trying it to see what it would sound like as an alternative temperament, I have no problem- people have their right to choose; but, when it comes to selling people it with inaccurate similitudes- that is when I have to speak up as a professional.\nIn my clientele, there is an ever decreasing number of customers that prefer ET. This has been ongoing since 1993, and I rarely use a completely equal tuning anymore. 80% of my clientele are professional musicians.\nI am not aware that ET is recognized as the \"best\". There have been too many musicians change their minds about keyboard intonation when exposed to alternatives. \"Best\" is an unprovable value judgement without some qualifiers. It may be the best temperament for one that doesn't care risk to anything to gain broader horizons. It may be the best temperament for those that fear customers will only accept what they already know, etc. It is certainly best for any technician or musician that prefers the status quo. It is also a simple, homogenized, sound with an unrelenting haze of tempering over everything. It has its own sound, but too many well-informed ears have found more response in something more harmonically varied.\nEt was settled upon because we have ten fingers, and 12 keys is the physical limit the keyboardists have found manageable. An equal spacing renders the thirds well out of tune, but if all are the same out of tune, the listener becomes inured to the dissonance. In ET, all thirds carry the same psycho-emotive stimulus, so there is an unchanging nature to the harmony at the sensual level. Without any contrast, that part of our brain that is exquisitely attuned to detect differences in stimulative stimuli goes to sleep. This de-sensitization to the effects of consonance and dissonance removes a major emotional influence from the music, yet, those that have never experienced the effects of harmonic variety have never felt this influence, so there is nothing to be gained by leaving ET. Those that have developed their ear to appreciate the texture created by a palette of varied harmonic values find the loss profound.\nIn a WT, the literature, as we know it, contains far less total dissonance than if performed in ET. One has to modulate beyond A or Eb to find wider thirds that the 13.7 that results from equality. Most music stays lower in the key signatures than that, yet you can play the WTC in a Young and find that even the most remote keys show a particular beauty. It is also telling that Classical compositions can be played with original pedal markings on a WT without becoming \"muddy\" or \"blurred\". The law of critical band allows highly tempered thirds to be played lower in pitch before becoming objectionably dissonant.\nIf we are to consider the third of ET, at 13.7 cents wide, to be the maximum acceptable dissonance, then ET is composed of ALL thirds tuned to their maximum dissonance. Is that really desirable? I have yet to hear any of my customers think that a 16 cent third was \"wildly beating\" but they all can recognize the beauty of a triad with an 8 or 9 cent third.. As far as \"here and there\" being used to describe the increased dissonance, it isn't randomly spread around the various keys, but rather, the level of stimulation provided by the thirds is universally graduated in the the same form, i.e. the dissonance of the tonic third for any key is determined by where on the circle of fifths that key is found. A simple, easy to grasp, architecture.\nET is the safest way to ply one's trade, no doubt. However, I submit there is more to be had from the music than ET alone can deliver, and thus, many of us seek. Risks and gains are proportional, and the gain that many of us have found is a totally new appreciation for the composers of the past. A return that is well worth the effort and risk of venturing beyond the normal. \"A ship in the harbor is safe, but that is not what ships are for\".\nAs I said, this has all been covered...\nYou make the points that I made- only with the tilt in favor...I liked the \"well-informed ears\"; that tends to be what we think about those that agree with us\nIt is not a matter of it being \"the best temperament for those that fear customers will only accept what they already know, etc.\"-- (slanting the client's viewpoint with such statements is not appreciated)- but rather of doing what is the agreed upon standard and accepted \"best\" for the instrument. It is the standard of the trade- just as A-440 is agreed standard for pitch (others may like other pitches). I cannot help what one's personal experience and clientele prefer (people tend to agree with the professional's opinions)- this doesn't change the basic fundamental facts of the profession.\nIf someone wishes to stray from something that came from progressive trials and errors of many to find solutions to problems of the past, solving aspects (the dreaded wolf) complained about by all--- then by all means have at it- try these alternative temperaments...\nBUT, I refuse to link these AT's that are being pitched to anything of the past, since they DO NOT produce what was heard then on today's instruments (especially on todays A-440 pitch).\nThere is a reason ET was worked out. It wasn't because we have 10 fingers.\nThe ship comparison is all emotional- ET is a ship that has sailed without mishap for a very long time... No icebergs.\nAlso, can EBVT III be achieved by relying heavily on an ETD?\nYes. In fact that may be the safest or most accurate way unless you hire Bill Bremmer himself to tune it. Not that others aren't capable of tuning it aurally but Bill is the creator of it.\nThe piano tuning software TuneLab comes preloaded with several unequal temperaments and included are Bremmer EBVT-1, 2 and 3. It's also possible that other software comes preloaded with it. I don't know...\nOh, yay! An EBVT thread where I can post a new recording!\nOriginally Posted by Aspiring\n[...] Also, can EBVT III be achieved by relying heavily on an ETD? [...]\nHere is the important thing about the \"tuning\" to be accomplished by someone who is not committed to EBVT: Once the temperament is established, it is just as important to get the stretch right. You can't just punch \"EBVT\" into the box and expect the tuning to come out \"right,\" per se. I've had an opportunity to use a Verituner to tune EBVT III with three different built-in stretch settings (clean, average, expanded), and they result in *very* different sounds. (My preference so far is to use the \"average\" setting.) That is to say, the temperament needs to be right, then the octaves need to be tuned right. Wolf tones have never entered into the picture in my experience.\nPersonally, I'm fairly well committed to EBVT III, (or EBVT as Bill would call it, now), because I like the energy that it brings to the piano. Once I had EBVT III on my piano, I had to re-think pieces of music that I *thought* I knew because the tuning was bringing shades of meaning to phrases in ways that made tons of sense, and I realized that I didn't know those pieces nearly as well as I thought. Earlier this fall, I convinced one of my pianist friends who has an acute ear to let me put EBVT on her 7ft Kawai. Previously, I had put a text-book ET on it that she was very happy with. About the EBVT III, she called to say, \"Let me tell you about the life-changing experience of that temperament...\"\nAnyway, here's a couple of recordings I made this week on my freshly EBVT tuned piano, a 1940 Lester spinet. I recently steamed the hammers using Ron Koval's method that can be found on YouTube, so the piano sounds pretty mellow (for a spinet...).\n\"To Us Is Given\" -- Dave Brubeck, arr.\n\"There's A Song In The Air\" -- Cindy Berry, arr.\nI didn't hear any wolf tones in there, did you?\nLast edited by Cinnamonbear; 12/30/17 10:10 PM. Reason: Removed a \"III\"\nThis is a very loaded question and I am home watching the Orange Bowl game, so I will have to address some issues in a future post. The EBVT (plain and simple) is now how the temperament is known. The II & III versions were only small modifications in the aural tuning instructions that refined the results into the basic idea that was always what was intended. Therefore, the original EBVT and EBVT II are now obsolete. What was called the EBVT III is now simply, the EBVT.\nFor electronic tuning, the following is the only list of which I approve:\n(100ths).......(10ths)\nC: +3.80...... +3.8\nC#: -1.29...... -1.3\nD: +0.86.......+0.9\nD#: +1.59......+1.6\nE: -0.41.........-0.4\nF: +1.84........+1.8\nF#: -0.28........-0.3\nG: +3.11........+3.1\nG#: +0.67......+0.7\nA: 0.0..............0.0\nA#: +2.86......+2.9\nB: -0.03............0.0\nAs for so-called \"wolf\" tones, by definition, a mild, \"Victorian\" style Well-Temperament, has no such thing. No temperament at all has a \"wolf tone\" for that matter. To say such a thing is an example of sheer bias and prejudice, not to mention ignorance.\nThere was a guy who used to rail against the use of the EBVT, saying how much I was \"promoting\" it (which I was not). It was he, in fact, who kept repeating the abbreviation over and over so much that he was providing me with much free publicity. It ended up with one of his own clients requesting it and after he did, only wanted the piano tuned that way thereafter.\nThat technician claimed it was a fad and spewed so much ignorance that I had to remind him often that he was broadcasting to the world how much he did not know. He ultimately resigned from this forum in frustration.\nIf you Google, \"What does EBVT stand for?\", you will get the following answer:\nAcronym [It's not really an acronym but an abbreviation. An acronym is an abbreviation that spells a pronounceable word].\nEBVT Equal Beating Victorian Temperament (piano tuning)\nEBVT Exterior Ballistic Verification Projectile\nThe fact that you can Google \"EBVT\" and see results means that the cat is out of the bag. People know about it and have discussed it widely. It has now been in use for fully 25 years. In the area where the idea was born, three generations of school children have been raised on it. It has been in there school, their home, their church, on their piano teacher's piano and at public performances that they have attended.\nI have used the EBVT nearly exclusively for all that time. Another technician from a town 35 miles away has used it exclusively in the school district that he serves for three years. I have used it in a concert hall 40 miles from here exclusively for 25 years for all types of performing artists from classical, new age, jazz, boogie woogie, pop and rock and often received public praise from the artists on stage to the audience.\nThe EBVT was first presented at a PTG convention in 1998 to wide acclaim. It was also presented subsequent to that. I believe it helped the body of piano technicians understand that Equal Temperament (ET) was indeed not the only choice a technician could have.\nNowadays, when manufacturer representatives talk about the various ways in which the overall sound of a piano can be manipulated, the use of a non-equal temperament is among the tools available. Many other presentations of pianos tuned in non-equal temperaments have caused the idea to gain widely regarded acceptance when at one time, it was considered to be an oddity.\nIt is your piano and you have the right to have it tuned the way you want it to be tuned.\nOh, and! -- That friend whose piano I tuned in EBVT? She's a piano teacher. I got a call from the mother of one of her students who said that she wanted her piano tuned just like her teacher's piano. Her mother said that her daughter wanted to \"hear the same kind of sparkles\" on their piano at home that she hears on her teacher's piano.\nOK. Twist my arm.\nHere's one more recording from a few days ago on the freshly tuned Lester:\n\"Willow Creek\" -- by McPartland and McGlohon\nI still don't hear any wolf tones in there... Do you?\nIt's a great game so far and Wisconsin is winning but it is still a nail biter.\nWhat have been called, \"wolf tones\" should be called, \"wolf intervals\". That implies an interval of any kind, 4th, 5th, Major or minor third that is too out of tune to be of practical musical use. Any mild, \"Victorian\" style Well-Temperament has none of that.\nWhat happens is that technicians who believe and practice only ET are accustomed to that sound alone, so any departure from it sounds \"out of tune\" to them but not necessarily to musicians, even professional musicians and the general public. Certainly, the EBVT has some Major thirds which are wider than they are in ET, so a technician with a bias will tune them and then \"bang\" on them out of the context of a music composition. And that's all it takes to reject the idea and go around blabbing about how it is therefore unacceptable.\nThat totally disregards all of the texture and real music magic that is in there to be enjoyed. ET has its own effects upon all music. The principle effect is to neutralize the sound of all key signatures into one. It removes the satisfaction that comes with modulation. It decreases the emotion that is inherent to all music of the Romantic, Impressionist and Post Romantic eras.\nHere is a link from my BoxNet account (safe) of a piece that should be impossible if the EBVT contained the so-called, \"wolf tones\". Since it is in the key of D-flat (five flats), it should have nothing but \"wolf tones\".\nhttps://app.box.com/s/q7vosp2amts8b83kuy8t\nVery few people can tell the difference between EBVT and ET in blind tests, so I would not worry about non-existing \"wolf intervals\".\nRe: EBVT III and wolf tones [Re: Cinnamonbear] #2700814\nAndy, you have the most lovely sounding spinet piano I have ever heard! Yes, the EBVT has extended its caliphate to an 80 mile radius of Madison, WI. North to Westfield and Wisconsin Dells (in some performance venues there), West to Spring Green, Richland Center and Viroqua (at the Frank Lloyd Wright estate Hillside theater, schools, churches and piano artists homes, East to Milwaukee where several high end grand owners (one with her own chamber concert hall attached to a magnificent home and which houses a Steinway Model D) want EBVT only and South to Rockford where both Andy and I serve pianists and churches. In one fine home that I serve there, regular salon performances with other instruments such as violin and wind players occur. (I just did a tuning there a few days ago).\nThere are many more technicians far and wide, in many states and in Canada who use the EBVT exclusively.\nRe: EBVT III and wolf tones [Re: DoelKees] #2700815\nThey also say that very few people have \"perfect pitch\" but I run into them all the time.\n\"Certainly, the EBVT has some Major thirds which are wider than they are in ET, so a technician with a bias will tune them and then \"bang\" on them out of the context of a music composition. And that's all it takes to reject the idea and go around blabbing about how it is therefore unacceptable.\"\nProbably why the guy you refer to earlier, \"retired from the forum in frustration\", is because most of the time certain people in here are short tempered, resort to name calling, or putting down professional and/or artistic abilities- rather than be able to debate their point logically, and politely with others.\nI myself have would no interest in discussing any faults that I might find in certain aspects of an area of our profession with others, if they have no intention of holding civil discourse toward the opposite point of view.\nAnd, whether something be labeled a \"wolf\" or a \"wolf tone\" by the original poster of this topic, does not bother me (certainly would not call them ignorant to their face, as was said to the them)...\nThe fact is that there ARE indeed differences in the EBVT and ET (Mr. Bremmer himself has said this clearly), if they were so close to each other (ET and EBVT), why is it being hailed as something so wonderful, and so different to experience?--- and something that the loathed ignorant bottom feeding lay-tuner with obvious bias will BANG out of context.......hehe (completely unbias presentation) hehe\nBut this was not what I attempted to address in my post. What I was attempting to address in my response was the same question I have had all along- to which I have never gotten an answer...\nIt is sold to the clients that this EBVT will present what the classical composers of their time had meant to express-- \"the color\", \"the character\", \"the emotion\"- when it is not at all what they could have heard in their time, so how could they have intended to express it?\nRomantic - early Victorian composers...\n* A-440 was no arround-- whether the pitch was A-435, A-whatever-to-get-it-to-sound-ok (it was diferent)\n* the plate was not heard of as yet\n* AND the instruments themselves have changed so drastically since\n...that it would be impossible to say Beethoven, or Mozart, or Vivaldi MEANT THIS rather than what you hear in ET...\nI do think honesty and unbiased presentation is very important in advertising. At least, that's what we always try to do with our clients. Why not simply present EBVT as an alternative temperament, let it stand on its own merits- good or bad. If it is good- it will become something we all will want to use as the go-to.\nI fully intend to tune my 1884 Knabe to Mr. Bremmer's EBVT and see what colors and character I hear with Moonlight and Clair de Lune- perhaps it will impress me (perhaps not- perhaps I will bang it out of context?).\nI suppose my \"fundamental question\" really was answered. Wolf intervals are not present in EBVT -- at least not to an extent that could be detected by a human. Who knows what my tuner was hearing. Doesn't matter anyway, so long as he can provide the service I'm looking for.\nLast edited by Aspiring; 12/31/17 01:21 PM. Reason: clarification\nEvery representation of pre-20th Century music on the modern piano is altered from what was heard from the instruments of the past. That does not mean that if Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, Chopin, Ravel, Rachmaninoff et al had a Steinway, Yamaha or Kawai, that they would have preferred such an instrument to be tuned the way we do it now.\nIndeed, it may have sounded quite strange to them. Not unlike an 18th Century temperament often sounds to present day pianists. It is all in what we have grown accustomed to hearing.\nI apologize if you took it that you must have been one of the technicians who \"banged\" on intervals out of context. It is just that I have seen it happen so many times. One bang and that's it, BACK to ET! For that matter, I have seen a pianist bang on a 10th tuned in ET when playing Chopin. \"That sounds out of tune to me\", he said. The piano had been tuned by a top technician. There was nothing wrong with the tuning but the pianist didn't like the sound.\nI remain firmly in the belief that for music up to and including the early 20th Century, the key signature had a meaning and value. The character of the sound of each key signature was the reason it was chosen. I largely discount the notion that Impressionist composers chose remote key signatures simply because they fit the hand more easily. There was, for them, the extra energy in those key signatures because of the temperament.\nYou can look all the way back to the early 18th Century and find people wanting to discover a way to make all 24 major and minor key signatures work better and more seamlessly, yes but that does not imply the quantum leap to ET as we know it.\nIn my opinion, ET has been more of a business decision than anything else. Any favoring of intervals to one side of the cycle of 5ths naturally disfavors the other side. There is an easy answer for that for a scientist like Helmholtz. Let's make all intervals equal. As with any such arbitrary decision however, it ends up not with equal satisfaction but equal dissatisfaction.\nI'll go out on this limb once again which always seems to stir the pot. I don't say it as a provocation but as an observation of sheer reality. ET may have been the standard and the goal for so many decades but it was rarely the reality. The reason, I believe, that so many early 20th Century composers, those who wrote beautiful scores for American Musical Theater in the appropriate key signatures that they chose for them was because they were still working with pianos that were tuned very similarly to the way I have designed for the EBVT.\nMost of the ordinary technicians however were tuning temperaments that were a backwards version of that which has become known as Reverse Well. There is a specific reason for it and every one of them who tuned that way did it for the reasons that I have often written. Some of them are still doing it today, nearly 20 years into the 21st Century.\nWhen pianists, students, teachers and audiences have heard for their entire lives, pianos tuned with completely backwards harmony, they become accustomed to that too. When however, for the first time in their lives, they suddenly encounter the key signatures arranged for the way they had always been intended, life changing experiences instantly emerge.\nSo, we just have to let go of the notion that once Bach wrote the Well Tempered Clavier music, all tuning of keyboards instantly took the quantum leap from 1/4 Comma Meantone to the opposite end of the spectrum to ET. It didn't happen that way. I have seen it written that \"From the time of Mozart and beyond, ET had become firmly established all across Europe\". That did not happen either but if one is looking for justification, it is easy to take that and simply imagine that there never was any reason for or value of the key signature. All key signatures have sounded alike for 300 years. That is preposterous.\nThe EBVT is a very carefully studied and crafted temperament. It was only a struggle to finally put everything into clear and concise writing but the basic idea was generated in 1992 with the assistance of a Sanderson Accu-Tuner, not in the calculated mode but the Tune and Direct Interval modes. I found what I was looking for an nailed it electronically. It was then, a great struggle to find a way to describe how to do that aurally but now, that problem has long ago been solved.\nThe beat rates of Major thirds (the primary focus of temperament construction) are really quite approximately the same as would be found in ET. They are simply rearranged in an alignment with the key signatures. That, I submit, is why many people cannot readily recognize the difference. The piano still sounds as is expected. There are no intervals outside the bounds of what is heard in ET. Interval size, yes and placement, yes but actual beat rates, no. Therefore, there are no musically unusable intervals.\nThere are other slight modifications that current technicians do to try to manipulate the sound of the piano other than voicing and precise regulation. The principal tool being used is the manipulation of stretch. It certainly does have its effects but pianists and the general public cannot usually identify exactly what it is that is different. They may only say that the piano sounds brighter or clearer but they may also say that it sounds more strident when playing certain kinds of music.\nI have worked on the matter of stretch in both ET and the EBVT. That is the one drawback of tuning the EBVT electronically. I have no control over what an electronically calculated program will do with the stretch. I can advise technicians as to what to do but whether they do it or not is beyond my control. The best advice I can give to the first time attempts at electronic tuning of the EBVT is to not use a wide stretch for the midrange but some wider stretch for the outer octaves may help.\nI have long been aware of the power of beat \"masking\" as some call it or as I prefer, \"beat cancellation\". I use its power within the temperament and midrange but also quite effectively in the outer octaves. Inharmonicity poses a problem and a challenge. By definition, it means that purity of sound in the octaves is impossible. However, by careful manipulation, I can actually use inharmonicity to defeat that problem.\nI would put up a fine piano the way I choose to tune it at virtually any time and place against the same kind of piano tuned in ET with the most advanced concepts of stretch such as the pure 12ths idea to let the pianists and the audience decide which example actually sounds better and more generally musical. Make it a blind test. Nobody knows which is which except the technicians. If the pianos look identical enough, put their placement on the stage at random so that even the technicians will not know which is which.\nPTG has not done anything like that before at a convention. I hardly think that Steinway or Shigeru Kawai would go for it. They have too much of a vested interest in the status quo but I can say one thing: I tested the tuning of the Shigeru Kawai at the last Convention concert. It had errors in the temperament. I could not hear them from the audience but I clearly could when I tested it later.\n\"See\", one might say, \"Those little deviations don't matter\". It's the unisons (which were also not as perfect as one may have expected) and the octaves that do\". So, if the tiny deviations from ET that are the fabric of the EBVT do not really matter, most people cannot recognize the difference, let's prove it.\nFind an up and coming manufacturer like Hailun or a German manufacturer who would like some exposure for their instruments. Set up a Thursday Convention night demonstration. Find the very finest ET tuner possible. Herr Stopper? David Andersen? Kent Swafford? Any die hard ET only concert technician. I'm game.\n\" I can infer that the tuner was simply describing things he wasn't accustomed to.\"\nIt was undoubtedly that. As I mentioned before, technicians do tend to be perfectionists. They have become accustomed to the sound of ET so anything that deviates from it sounds wrong to them.\nLucas Brookins RPT\nHere is an audio recording of me tuning the octaves in the EBVT III on a Kawai RX-6 if you want to hear it.\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cbpdKaN-EpM\nLucas Brookins, RPT\nLucas Brookins does an excellent job of beat masking (cancellation). In his audio, you would never know that he is not tuning ET except that he does not test any Rapidly Beating Intervals (RBI). It is not necessary to do so.\nHow much difference is there from the EBVT to ET? In a recent private message, a gentleman asked me how he might program his digital piano which can accept only whole cent deviations. I simply took my list and rounded off to whole cents:\n(100ths) (10ths) (whole cents)\nC: +3.80.......+3.8......+4\nC#: -1.29.......-1.3.......-1\nD: +0.86........+0.9.....+1\nD#: +1.59..... +1.6......+2\nE: -0.41..........-0.4........0\nF: +1.84.........+1.8.....+2\nF#: -0.28.........-0.3.......0\nG: +3.11.........+3.1.....+3\nG#: +0.67.......+0.7.....+1\nA: 0.0................0.0......0\nA#: +2.86......+2.9......+3\nB: -0.03............0.0.......0\nAnyone else who may have a similar programmable digital piano may do the same. While the rounding off is somewhat of a compromise, the proportions tend to stay about the same.\nI have often said that a piano tuned in the EBVT is fully compatible with other instruments at the same pitch, including fixed pitched instruments presumed to be in ET. For example, I have placed a digital keyboard side piano tuned in ET and played a chromatic scale from C3 to C5. Many notes would actually sound dead on together or very nearly so. Only the C, G, and A# would have a slight wave between them. No two notes come even close to what would be described as \"out of tune\" with each other. The fact is that the EBVT produces an internal effect to the piano, not external incompatibility.\nAt a Chapter technical where I tuned two Steinway Model D's, I did the same comparison. It was agreed by those who listened that the difference was approximately what one might expect from two different tuners, regardless of temperament. Yet, there was a clearly heard distinction in the music played by pianists upon the two pianos. Many expressed a preference for the EBVT and nobody really said they liked the ET better but if they did, they probably just kept quiet.\nSeveral months ago, a technician contacted me because he was bringing a 6 foot Kawai grand to the concert hall where I have tuned the Steinway Model D there for 25 years in the EBVT. I had tuned the instrument on a week before that and it is usually quite stable. He asked what he may encounter. It was a children's show and the two pianists would be playing the Saint-Saens Carnival of the Animals so he was not too worried about it.\nI said to not be worried at all. The two pianos could not be tuned exactly alike, no matter what. It would be like tuning a piano and an organ together. \"Just have the A4 be at 440 and you're good\", I said. The two instruments will not be playing the same notes in the same registers. They will not sound out of tune with each other even if they are. In fact, if two perfectly matched pianos are tuned exactly alike, some of that cancelling out effect goes into play. The report back was that everything went fine and that the two pianos were indeed compatible, a Steinway B in EBVT and a Kawai RX5 in ET.\nStill, another way to look at the EBVT is to look at the 10ths column figures. If those are put against a PTG Tuning Exam Master Tuning, the result would be a score of 86. The Pitch Correction Number may, in fact help adjust the two even a little better. It further demonstrates how a piano tuned correctly in the EBVT has very little note by note numeric difference from ET. Two of the notes, the A and B are exactly alike. There would be a completely inaudible difference between the E and F#.\nIf untold numbers of RPT's have passed their tuning exams with temperament scores in the 80's but were then and still are professional piano technicians and their numerical results on the average are really not distinguishable from a piano tuned in the EBVT, there is truly nothing to worry about, to warn against or to do anything but accept the fact that every technician puts his own signature on the piano, each and every time a piano is tuned. I put mine, you put yours. I am entitled to have my opinion and you are entitled to have yours.\nI am afraid that whatever \"Blind Tests\" have been done have therefore been invalid from a scientific point of view. Oh sure, put up some recordings of randomly chosen music and you'll get the same answer every time. That is because ET has its own problems with dissonance. If you are looking for dissonance to be the culprit and ascribe it to the EBVT, you will find it from a piano tuned in ET. By the same token, if you look for consonance from a piano and assume that it came from the piano tuned in ET, you will be surprised to learn that the largely consonant sounding piano was in fact, tuned in the EBVT.\nThis experience is not limited to the EBVT, by the way. There is a local dealer/technician/restorer who puts on all of his salon concerts in the much stronger, much more radical sounding 1/7 Comma Meantone. He never tells anyone about that fact. He just does it. He says that as soon as you start putting a label on it, that is when people start to object.\nThe local music critics attend those events and the artists often praise the sound of the piano as unlike any that they have ever experienced anywhere. To them, it is the magic of that carefully restored piano that they enjoyed. Of course, the restoration, regulation and voicing are all top notch. But as a technician, if you went up to that piano and played the intervals, you would be in for a shocking experience.\nMajor 3rds with a range of 9.7 to 18.7 and a \"wolf\" 5th, 6 cents wide between G# and D#. The key signature of A-flat major is truly electric! The very dark and disturbing sounds of E-flat and B-flat minor also contribute to the emotional experience. The artists are unaware that there would be anything different about the tuning but they play on whatever is presented to them. You can see how they instantly adapt to the sound coming from his pianos. I have personally witnessed how the emotions from the music are far more evident than they ever could be from a piano tuned in ET. This was the sound, by the way that Peter Serkin liked and the testimonial to it is framed and put on the wall in that place.\nThe EBVT actually pales in comparison, so there is truly nothing to be afraid of but rather something new to experience.",

        "title": "Building Community in the Classroom with Adela Chumillas - The Franklin Students' Blog",
        "raw_content": "Teaching experience\t abril 6, 2017 0 Margaret Malmquist West\nBuilding community in the classroom is rewarding for both you and your students. It is, however, difficult to do. Every class, no matter the subject, is different because it\u2019s made up of different young individuals interacting together at different times of the day, week, and year. Your classes as a native teacher go beyond the usual \u201cdifferent\u201d because you will prepare different activities in a different language. Here are five challenges you will face specifically as a native teacher, alongside some simple solutions for each:\nOnly seeing a class a once or twice a week: they will be excited to see you, will not be used to your rules, and you will not get to know them quickly. In order to counteract these difficulties, memorize names (take home the roster with names and photos), interact with students outside of class, plan classes in advance, and link classes together (Remember what we did last week, guys?\u201d \u201cNext week bring materials for\u2026\u201d).\nLanguage barrier: they don\u2019t understand a lot of what you say. Be expressive with your face and body, write EVERYTHING on the board, and adapt your language (use simple syntax, avoid using too many phrasal verbs and expressions, unless they are learning them). These take practice, but you will learn.\nSchool culture: you will probably see behavior that would mean suspension in your home country. Foul language is one example, constant talking is another. Students are not necessarily accustomed to alternative activities (e.g. not grammar and not sitting in their seats the entire class), and this is one of the reasons your classes are extra fun (and difficult for you and the teacher). You and your class are an anomaly. Additionally, students are at school longer than they are in the US. Keep this in mind for your afternoon classes. They will probably be tired and loud. For any of these issues, talk to the supervising teacher and coordinator if you have any doubts.\nNot knowing school rules yourself: unless you ask, nobody\u2019s going to explain the rules in detail. This is easy to fix. Ask and learn the school-wide rules for behavior. Students will try to take advantage of you if they see you are unsure about them.\nThat supervising teacher who doesn\u2019t follow school rules or discipline the class: talk to him or her and communicate the difficulties you are having. If that doesn\u2019t work, talk to your coordinator. This can be a difficult situation to navigate. Be diplomatic, professional, and resilient.\nDue to these challenges, building community is even more difficult than it might be in other classes. In order to create community, you will first want to build a foundation, and that foundation is usually made up of rules that everyone follows. They are kids, after all, and everyone will try to test the limits in his or her own special \u2014albeit at times charming or cute\u2014 way. It\u2019s normal. To that end, before discussing community and proceeding to the interview with Adela, I\u2019ll give you a few pointers about \u201claying down the ground rules.\u201d These so-called ground rules need not be detailed or numerous (3 rules is enough), but they should be clear, they should coincide with school rules, and they should be communicated to students as early as possible.\nMake special rules for your native teacher class. Talk with your supervising teacher beforehand so that he or she can support you and give you feedback. If you can involve the students in making the rules, even better! You can have each class come up with rules (you may need to lend some guidance) and have students make a poster with rules on the first or second day. Try to write the rules in positive terms, e.g. \u201cSpeak in English,\u201d \u201cRespect classmates when they are speaking,\u201d \u201cUse inside voice while doing group work,\u201d \u201cHave fun.\u201d\nAgree on short- and long-term goals and consequences, keep track of them, and stick to them. Goals can be simply following the rules or even giving extra \u201cpoints\u201d for participation, accent, or whatever. Maybe you show a video or play a song at the end of every class when students do well. After a month of doing well, maybe they get a certificate or learn a song. At the end of the year, maybe they get a prize or get to have a party. Ask the students and involve the supervising teacher. To keep track, you can use an online tool like ClassDojo*, stickers for teams or the entire class, marbles in jars, or a board game where teams advance.\nThese rules and agreements will come in handy in every class throughout the year, and they will be the foundation for your special community. It may seem like a lot of extra work at first, but it will save you time and frustration down the road when classes are going through a rough time, it\u2019s hot, it\u2019s Friday, and they\u2019ve just finished exams.\nThis week I spoke with Adela Chumillas about creating community in the classroom. In particular, Adela told me about why she became a teacher and how she\u2019s used community building activities and techniques in the classroom. Adela and I have been working together for almost two years and I\u2019ve had the privilege of seeing her work her magic with teenagers at least twice a week during that time. Every teacher you will work with has a different style and expertise. Adela\u2019s classes are no exception. Adela has a special knack for encouraging community and for fostering compassion and self-reflection.\nDuring the week, I asked her first of ESO class (12/13 year olds, seventh grade in the US system) about which tendencies they thought are important for building community. The responses were varied and thoughtful: listen to others, respect different opinions, share work, ask question to get to know people, be patient, be supportive, and be empathetic. These are great actions, but not ones that are innate. Indeed, even when have internalized them, we can be quick to throw them out the window when we are tired, stressed, frustrated, bored, or unhappy \u2014in other words, if we feel like many teenagers feel most of the time when they are at school. Thankfully, there are activities and teaching techniques that help students become more aware of their peers and respectful to others in general.\nMMW: Adela, where are you from?\nAC: I\u2019m from Madrid, Spain\nMMW: How long and where have you been teaching?\nAC: I\u2019ve been teaching since I finished my degree in 2003, though I had already been teaching Business English at some engineering companies.\nMMW: Why did you choose to become a teacher?\nAC: I didn\u2019t know what to study, but I knew I wanted to teach. Both my parents are teachers, and they have enjoyed teaching, I guess I\u2019ve seen it since I was a little kid. Moreover, I wanted to fight to improve society, but I realized that there was little I could do in the streets, whereas there was a lot I could do inside a classroom.\nMMW: Why did you choose to be an English teacher?\nAC: I was thinking of studying biology or English, in fact I studied science at high school. In the end, I thought that English, as the most international language, would be a better tool in order to teach outside the book and help improve society, as I said before.\nMMW: At GSD Las Suertes, you are a universally respected teacher, both for your creativity and the relationship you have with your students. I\u2019ve heard you be called the child-whisperer more than once, and that\u2019s not only a reference to classroom management: it also refers to your high behavioral expectations, your call for students to reflect on everything they do and, above all, that they respect each other. Your classes have a special feel. They feel like a community, students are comfortable and relaxed, everyone (students and teacher) is responsible for the well-being of others. From your perspective, what type of classroom do you try to create?\nAC: A classroom is more that kids in a room, it\u2019s a whole engine, a whole community inside a bigger community. It works by itself, but it also forms part of something else.\nFirst of all, I would say I don\u2019t have a fixed idea about a class to create. I try to adapt to each of them and their necessities. I watch them, listen to them, \u201cfeel\u201d the stream of the group and then start creating that sense of community out of what they \u201ctold\u201d me by their feelings, their thoughts, their life experiences, and their expectations.\nMMW: How do you define community? In school? Outside of school?\nAC: From the inside to the outside. A kid and a teacher, a class, a school, a neighborhood, a city, a country\u2026 A community starts whenever two individuals interact and build a relationship between them, and then it expands.\nMMW: What types of activities do you do that foster community building?\nAC: I try to focus a lot on emotional intelligence and emotional education because I think we have a great lack of it at schools and at home. I try to boost empathy, resilience, respect, and other values. I use cooperative learning, project-based learning, and all techniques that imply working with others. Educations is centered in the student, as a person, and not as a \u201cwalking brain\u201d \u2014intellect is important, but life in itself is much more important.\nMMW: You teach outside of the book, meaning you follow the content of the book for planning and curriculum, but you don\u2019t necessarily use it for examples or activities. How does this play a role in your specific way of community building?\nAC: They love to consider the book as just one more tool, and not as \u201cThe Holy Bible\u201d. Books are not evil, but I don\u2019t think a text book should drive the class, and neither should the teacher. The class flows, the teacher guides it, as rowing in troubled/still waters. The book might only be a help for doing so.\nAs we don\u2019t feel so much pressure about which page to work with, we feel we can explore the language our way, and that\u2019s magical!!!! The teacher is still the guide, he/she knows what\u2019s next \u2014and students also appreciate this fact, they don\u2019t like feeling lost\u2014 and the \u201cwhat is clear\u201d; we just make our own \u201chow\u201d.\nMMW: You\u2019ve told me a little about times when you\u2019ve taken bad behavior more seriously than others would take it order to set a precedent (that is, you\u2019ve externally shown more anger than perhaps you felt). I\u2019ll give an example: once a boy snacked another boy\u2019s forearm with a flexible ruler. The boy who get smacked was joking about how red his arm was getting, and it was a situation where some would simply tell them to stop. Instead, you were very stern with the student using the ruler, saying it was a form of acoso escolar (school bullying) and that consequences could be severe, that even legal action could be taken. What role does this (taking some behaviors very seriously so they don\u2019t escalate) in community creation and, in particular, your role as the ultimate authority and guide?\nAC: As I said before, every class is different. In that class, some students have accused one another of damaging their school materials, and there might be a possible case of bullying, so in that class, I will be very tough when there\u2019s something related to these two issues, as part of their education. Sometimes kids \u2014these ones are only 12\u2014 don\u2019t understand how important things are for you if you don\u2019t give a little bit of acting to the fact. In the end, they are still kids. Its just an \u201cemphasizer.\u201d\nIn this class, we did something that is working really well: we left a pair of magnets \u2014the word \u201clove\u201d and the symbol of peace\u2014 on the whiteboard, saying that it was very important for the American teacher and for me that they looked after them. They shouldn\u2019t lose them, damage them and they should \u201clook after\u201d them. And the magnets are still there!\nMMW: What is the importance or concept of a carrot/stick (rewards/punishment) system in your community? How do you present this concept to students?\nAC: I\u2019d rather give carrots than the stick, but not materialistic carrots, emotional ones. That\u2019s the key. A hug, a high five, a smile, a rewarding and comforting sentence, or a \u201ccertificate\u201d! They also love using their ClassDojo* avatars.\nMMW: What are some of the obstacles you face given that you are teaching in a foreign language but talking about very important things? How do you overcome them?\nAC: I try to use full immersion, but I don\u2019t hesitate to speak Spanish if I see a student needs it to overcome fears, express his/her feelings, or release an emotion. Flexibility is crucial in that sense. And if you use it wisely, they will understand the situation perfectly.\n*ClassDojo is an online program that allows you to create avatars for each student and use the avatars to track points, play games, etc. It\u2019s a great resource.",

        "raw_content": "Tags: parenting, relationships\nI remember a few weeks ago laying in bed with our five year old by my side as he was falling asleep. He was somewhat uncomfortable and fidgety; overtired and unrelaxed.\nAs he rolled onto his side for the 15th time I placed my hand on his back. Within a few brief moments he was sound asleep.\nThe security of my hand on his back was settling.\nNext month our five year old is turning six. My little buddy isn\u2019t very little anymore. The reality is sinking in that our time together at this stage of life is drawing to a close.\nIt is a sobering thought when you see your child transitioning from innocence to the awakening of the type of world we live in.\nAs his daddy I want to veil him from the darkness, to protect and preserve the innocence within him, but I know that I can\u2019t.\nI want to tell my son\u2026\n\u2026people are good, no one will ever hurt you.\nUnfortunately people aren\u2019t good, and someone may hurt you. The heart of man is dark apart from Christ. I dread the day you experience your first fight or lose your first love. I have nightmares about how the depravity of man may hurt you in the future. I can\u2019t promise you people won\u2019t hurt you. But remember hatred and vengeance is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to die. Respond with love, to all people, at all times. It isn\u2019t easy and it certainly isn\u2019t popular; but it is right.\n\u2026you are going to take your hits in life, but I will always be able to protect you.\nMan do I wish this one were true. I won\u2019t always be there to protect you. I won\u2019t always be here, period. As much as I wish I could protect you from every hurt that is going to come your way, I can\u2019t. You are going to face rejection, pain and injustice your entire life. You can persevere. There is no pill to protect you from the hurt and heartache this world is going to share with you; but there is One who will strengthen you along the way and allow you to experience true joy even in the middle of the storms.\n\u2026pursue your dreams no matter the cost.\nWhile it makes for a great inspirational poster, don\u2019t pursue your dreams no matter the cost. Don\u2019t step on other people. Don\u2019t forfeit relationships. Don\u2019t find your worth in what you do. Instead? Give your dreams and passions to God and ask Him to use them to further His Kingdom; to make Him known. You are passionate about things for a purpose; seek God as you unite the two.\n\u2026if you run out of time today that is okay, there is always tomorrow.\nYou have 86,400 seconds in a day. Once they are gone, they are gone. What you do with your time matters. If it can be done today, do it today, because you may not have a tomorrow. Don\u2019t wait until tomorrow to show someone you love them. Don\u2019t wait until tomorrow to meet a need someone has. Don\u2019t wait until tomorrow to focus on your relationship with God. Don\u2019t wait until tomorrow to share the good news. Tomorrow may never be here. You have today; use it.\n\u2026choosing to follow Jesus is the easiest road we can choose in this life.\nThis is the biggest lie I could ever tell you. Jesus warned us that if the world hated Him; we\u2019d be naive to think it won\u2019t hate us. This has become ever more true by the day in the nation we live in. Following Jesus will leave you making the difficult choices. Loving someone who hurt you. Giving to someone who can\u2019t give back to you. Sacrificing what you want for what He wants. It is a hard road and sometimes a lonely road. But it is the right road. The journey is worth every ounce of struggle you will pour into it. It is the most rewarding relationship you will ever experience.\nThere are so many lies I wish I could tell you, but as you are already acknowledging through your daily questions this world is not all that you thought it to be. Bad guys are not fanciful, imaginative characters to add plot to a story; they are real people\u2026even us at times.

        "raw_content": "THE MYTH OF NATURAL RIGHTS\nby L.A. Rollins\nNo, it won't stop bullets. It won't keep people from ripping-off your property. It won't even stop the government from putting you in a concentration camp, or executing you. About the only thing a \"natural right\" will stop is enlightened thinking on the ethics of liberty. Once you've read The Myth of Natural Rights, you'll be able to put those imaginary protectors of freedom back in the museums where they came from.\nLibertarian scholars have had a difficult time being taken seriously in intellectual circles. There's a good reason for this. While they have gained recognition and acclaim for their staunch defense of the free market, compelling advocacy of civil liberties and devastating condemnation of interventionism, their stubborn reliance on the ancient myth of natural rights leaves them in philosophical disrepute. The doctrine of natural rights has persisted among libertarians, because there has never been a systematic and thorough critique of all it implies. Until now.\nIn one compact work, L.A. Rollins shatters the myth of natural rights, while exposing the \"bleeding-heart libertarians\" that promote it. With careful research and ample documentation, he shows that thinkers like Ayn Rand, Murray Rothbard, Tibor Machan and Samuel Konkin not only violate reason and logic in their defense of natural rights, but also violate the standards they set for themselves.\n1983, 5 1/2 x 8 1/2, 50 pp, bibliography, soft cover.",

        "raw_content": "Trump blasts CNN in 3 a.m. tweet for \u2018blaming me\u2019 for bombs\nAt the end of a week in which 10 suspected pipe bombs were sent to prominent liberal leaders over a 72-hour period, President Trump took to Twitter past 3 a.m. Friday to criticize CNN, another recipient of a suspicious package, for coverage that he said compared this week\u2019s news to 9/11 and the Oklahoma City bombing.\n\u201cFunny how lowly rated CNN, and others, can criticize me at will, even blaming me for the current spate of Bombs and ridiculously comparing this to September 11th and the Oklahoma City bombing,\u201d the president tweeted at 3:14 a.m., \u201cyet when I criticize them they go wild and scream, \u2018it\u2019s just not Presidential!\u2019 \u201d\nThe 3:14 a.m. tweet, which was posted after an incomplete version of the tweet was published about 30 minutes prior and then deleted, comes in the same week that the president both condemned the pipe bombs and again targeted the media for the coverage of his administration.\n\u201cThe media also has a responsibility to set a civil tone and to stop the endless hostility and constant negative \u2014 and oftentimes, false \u2014 attacks and stories,\u201d Trump said at a Wednesday night rally in Wisconsin.\nIn the hours that followed the discovery of a live explosive device at CNN\u2019s New York headquarters on Wednesday, Jeff Zucker, the company\u2019s president, denounced Trump and his administration for not grasping the consequences that come from their attacks against the media.\n\u201cThere is a total and complete lack of understanding at the White House about the seriousness of their continued attacks on the media,\u201d Zucker said in a Wednesday statement. \u201cThe President, and especially the White House press secretary, should understand their words matter. Thus far, they have shown no comprehension of that.\u201d\nFor the president, CNN \u2014 a cable news network he once said he doesn\u2019t watch \u2014 remains a favorite topic on Twitter. Since June 16, 2015, the day he announced his candidacy for the Republican presidential nomination, the president has tweeted about CNN more than 260 times, according to the Trump Twitter Archive, a website that archives Trump\u2019s tweets. Sixty-five of those tweets have come since Trump assumed office.\nTensions boiled between CNN and Fox News as the networks each tore into the other for its coverage of the latest bomb threats. (Drea Cornejo /The Washington Post)\nMeanwhile, on Fox Business, Lou Dobbs, who has enjoyed steady praise from the president, tweeted out a segment from his Thursday interview with conservative activist Candace Owens, in which Owens scolded CNN for preaching \u201cdishonesty\u201d in its coverage of the suspected pipe bombs. \u201cNow they want to point the finger at this administration, which has been trying so hard to bring the American people together despite the media slandering them,\u201d Owens said.\nTrump has often described CNN on Twitter as \u201cso negative,\u201d \u201cdisgusting,\u201d \u201cthe worst,\u201d \u201cfailing\u201d and, of course, \u201cFake News.\u201d His most famous CNN-related tweet, in July 2017, depicted him violently smashing a CNN logo attached to the head of Vince McMahon, chairman of WWE.\nPreviousThe White House demands answers about 5G in new memorandum\nNextGoogle sacks dozens over sexual harassment\nI Came Back To Power With \u2018Agbada\u2019 To Convince Nigerians To Make Sacrifices \u2013 Buhari",

        "raw_content": "Success Unearthed\nSuccess doesn't mean the absence of failures; it means the attainment of ultimate objectives. It means winning the war, not every battle. - Edwin C. Bliss\nhar-d\nHaven\u2019t We Been Here Before? (Continued)\nAchieving Prosperity\nA beautiful tool for encouraging gratitude is to keep a gratitude journal. This is simply a note pad, or diary, or whatever brings you the most joy that you write in every day with 5 things you are grateful for on that day. The idea is not to repeat what you have already written wherever possible to encourage you to seek out more to be grateful for.\nEven if it\u2019s the worst day in the world, you could choose to be grateful that you have all your limbs, a shelter over your head, or food on your table. There is always something to be grateful for, whether it\u2019s big or small. It could simply be that you\u2019re so grateful that the worst day in the world is only 24 hours and tomorrow will be a new day.\nA good time to write in your gratitude journal is just before you go to sleep at night. Keep it by your bed, and before you nod off to dreamland, reflect on the day and what you have to be grateful for today. This will put you in a beautiful frame of mind before sleeping, but most of all, it will encourage you the next day to look out for more to put in your gratitude journal. This is where the magic happens.\nConsider how your life could change if every day you were always seeking out reasons to be grateful. Can you see the power in this beautiful technique? If you take nothing more from this e-book, I hope you try this.\nNo, no\u2026 Thank you!\nPosted by har-d at 1:12 AM No comments:\nOne of the most powerful ways of attracting more positive experiences, and more prosperity into your life, is to experience gratitude for what you already have. Consider this, the Universe has done its job and sent you everything you ordered, even if you didn\u2019t know you were ordering it. Therefore, if you aren\u2019t even happy with what you have already been given, why would the Universe think to send you anything else?\n- Margaret Cousins\nGratitude is one of the single most life changing choices to make, and yet it is also one of the easiest. Choosing to express gratitude for everything in your life will have a truly powerful impact on how you feel every day, what you attract into your life, and the people that you surround yourself with.\nNow I know that you\u2019re asking \u201chow can I be grateful for everything? What about the [insert traumatic incident here] that happened to me? How can I be grateful for that?\u201d. I would like to tell you that you should be even more grateful for the traumas, the losses, the dramas, the tragedies and all the other horrible experiences you\u2019re suddenly referencing right now. They are the ones that have taught you the most, and made you the person you are today. There is usually so much more to learn from the tragedies than there ever are from the victories, and that\u2019s why they form such an important part of our lives.\nWhat you need to do though, is focus on the positive learnings from these experiences, and not dwell in the negative. Using this approach will mean you never look at what may seem at first as a negative experience, the same again. You will take it for what it is and look for the blessing, which is such a beautiful blessing in itself.\n\u201cIf the only prayer you said in your whole life was, \u2018thank you\u2019,\nthat would suffice.\u201d\nI can personally say that this was one of the most life changing concepts that has ever had an impact on me.\nTo have things go \u201cwrong\u201d and smile knowingly, excited about the chance to grow and learn, means nothing has the power to make me feel unhappy again. What is that worth?\nAnother way to say that would be that you will attract what you put your attention on, whether wanted or unwanted, so if your attention is on how you always get your heart broken\u2026 guess what? You\u2019ll get more of it!\nThe way this works is that everything on this planet is energy; a vibration, not the solid forms that we see around us. Science and Metaphysics have broken down every particle of the human body, and everything that we consider matter or substance, to discover that we are actually made of energy, and so is everything around us.\n\u201cFollow your bliss and the Universe will open doors where\nthere were walls.\u201d\nEverything vibrates at varying levels, and when we are feeling flat, down, negative, or unhappy, we are vibrating at a low level, and attracting other low level vibrations to us. Conversely, when we are happy, positive, excited, energised, we vibrate at a higher level and attract more positive experiences to us, which are vibrating at the same level. This is where such sayings originated, as: being \u201con a roll\u201d or a \u201cwinning streak\u201d. When you\u2019re up, you\u2019re up and things seem to keep coming your way. In fact, Sales trainers often teach that the best time to make a sale, is when you\u2019ve just made a sale. This is because you\u2019re already vibrating at that high level and likely to attract more of the same.\nThe reason you may have a challenge with this is that it\u2019s generally more natural to focus on your current reality than it is to focus on what you want. So rather than focusing all your thoughts and feelings on the abundance of wealth that the Universe has always had waiting for you, you may have been thinking of how you were going to afford to eat this month.\n\"Watch your thoughts, for they become words. Choose your words, for they become actions. Understand your actions, for they become habits. Study your habits, for they will become your character. Develop your character, for it becomes your destiny.\"\nTo give you an example of how the Law of Attraction works, several years ago I put pictures of my perfect wedding on my vision board; with beautiful weather, on the beach, with me being head over heels in love with my new husband (who I hadn\u2019t met yet)\u2026 not to mention my perfect engagement ring! I got married this last November and it wasn\u2019t until I looked back at my old vision board recently that I realised I had lived out my exact dream wedding.\nNot to mention how great it will make you feel to picture yourself driving your new car, living in your new home or marrying the man of your dreams.\n\u201cWithin you now and always is the unborn possibility of a limitless experience of inner stability and outer treasure, and yours is the privilege of giving birth to it. And you will, if you can believe.\u201d\nA great tool to help you visualise and stay focused on what you do want, which I mentioned briefly above, is to create a vision board. A vision board is a collection of pictures (and words if you want them) of all of your goals and dreams.\nPosted by har-d at 1:06 AM 1 comment:\nHave you noticed that there are patterns in your life, where you find yourself again and again going through the same kind of experience, emotion or circumstance? Have you noticed that there are patterns in your life, where you find yourself again and again going through the same kind of experience, emotion or circumstance? (I couldn\u2019t help it! \u263a).\nFor instance, do you know of anyone who always has trouble with relationships? This person always seems to end up with that loser guy/girl and gets their heart broken every time. They may be the loveliest person on earth, yet this keeps on happening.\nWhat about being accident-proned? Have you ever met anyone who always seems to have something go wrong, no matter what they do or where they are? They seem to be a magnet for disaster\u2026 and as I\u2019m about to explain, that\u2019s pretty much exactly what they are.\nIs there a recurring pattern in your life that you can\u2019t seem to shake? Are you attracting a constant flow of bills and debts rather than an unlimited flow of cash and cheques? There\u2019s a very specific reason why this keeps happening and, best of all, once you know how it works, you can change it!\n\u201cFaith is expectancy. You do not receive what you pray for, nor\neven what you say you have faith in. You will always receive\nexactly what you expect.\u201d\nPut simply, the Universe has Laws. They are basic principles of life and have been around since time began. These laws are unchangeable, undeniable and absolute. No exceptions. Universal Laws apply to everyone, everywhere. They cannot be changed. They cannot be broken. Consider the Law of Gravity; no matter how much it may be nice for the law of gravity not to work sometimes, it will absolutely, positively, 100% always be in effect.\nSo too will the Law of Attraction. This powerful, universal law says that what you put out, you get back.\nI came across a beautiful technique recently to let go of the stuff that is holding you back, which is a simple, yet powerful visualization. Sit down somewhere quiet, where you will be comfortable and uninterrupted for about 10 minutes. Close your eyes and take a few deep breaths to get into a relaxed state and then just allow a picture to come into your mind. The picture is of you, in whatever environment you choose that brings you the most peace and joy. That may be sitting on the beach, sitting by a stream in a forest, or on a cloud in the sky\u2026 wherever you are happiest, and wherever your imagination takes you.\nYou will notice that parked nearby is a really big truck, with a strong, heavy duty tow bar, looking like it\u2019s ready to tow something away. You know what to do; it is now time to reach behind you, and unclip your trailer. Immediately notice how much lighter your body feels with that immense weight lifted off.\nNow turn around and have a look at what you have been carrying around all of these years. These are all of the emotions, experiences, and stories that you have hung on to for way to long that no longer serve you. These may be specific and detailed experiences, or simply emotions, such as fear, guilt or shame, that it\u2019s time to let go of now.\n\u201cWe must learn to let go, to give up, to make room for the things we have prayed for and desired.\u201d\n- Charles Fillmore\nAllow yourself to feel whatever you feel at this point, and allow your intuition to create whatever picture it needs to for you. Whether your trailer is full of Louis Vuitton bags, garbage bags, boxes\u2026 or simply a pile of stuff, that\u2019s perfect. Whatever it is for you, is exactly how it should be. Similarly if you\u2019re having trouble getting a picture at all, but can allow yourself to feel the process, that\u2019s perfect too\u2026 there are no rules.\nAfter looking at your trailer load of stuff, and saying your final farewells, a big, burly man comes over to you, grabs your trailer and attaches it to the back of the truck. As he drives away with all of your stuff pay attention to how you feel. Do you feel lighter, happier, excited, anxious, ecstatic? Take a few moments to really feel what it means to release so much negativity, and start fresh with no load. Then once you\u2019re done, take a few deep breaths and open your eyes.\nNow, if you\u2019re used to doing visualizations, this may have been easy for you, but if you\u2019ve never really done them before, it can be challenging to get a picture. It differs for everyone, and THAT\u2019S OK. You may feel nothing straight away, and that\u2019s ok too. You may even find that you have some interesting dreams tonight, or over the next few days you may notice how much lighter you feel.\nA positive side effect is that you may even find that you drop some unwanted weight as a result of this also. Carrying around emotional baggage can have a very strong impact on our physiology as well. How is that for a bonus!\nAhhh\u2026 how sweet it is to feel so free!\nNow that you have established what it is that you\u2019re lugging around with you, aren\u2019t you suddenly aware of how heavy it feels? It\u2019s as if someone attached a trailer to you when you were young, and over the years you\u2019ve been piling stuff on to it without even realizing. It\u2019s been subtle and happening quietly, and the trailer is dragging along behind you, so you don\u2019t even see it, yet you can definitely feel something weighing you down.\nRemember the feeling as a child, of having a spring in your step and bounding around the house or the yard full of energy, like one of those bouncy rubber balls? What happened to that feeling? I\u2019ll tell you what happened\u2026 it\u2019s hard to bounce around with a trailer full of stuff attached to your backside!! It\u2019s time to let the stuff go\u2026 it\u2019s not serving you.\nImagine if you woke up tomorrow in a brand new place, with complete amnesia about who you were, where you had been or what your life experiences had been like so far. Yes, it could be a little frightening because it\u2019s unknown\u2026 but imagine the possibilities! How exciting would the feeling be of beginning a brand new journey with no stuff to hold you back. You wouldn\u2019t know if you were an heiress to a multi-billion dollar fortune, or a beggar off the street, so you could pretty much pick which one and starting feeling like that (I know which one I\u2019d choose!).\nSet some quality time aside for yourself, and maybe set the mood for inspiration by lighting some candles, or putting on some soothing music; whatever works best for you. Take out a pen and paper and allow yourself to be truly honest with what you write down.\nConsider what has been holding you back from achieving your goals and dreams, and from living the life that you desire. Allow your story to unfold, and write it all down so you have it on paper, as stories should be.\nDo you feel there is something, or someone, in your life that is holding you back?\n\u2022 Was your childhood traumatic in any way?\n\u2022 Do you, or have you had an illness to deal with in your life?\n\u2022 Were you not given many opportunities growing up?\n\u2022 Write down anything else that you consider an obstacle or a hindrance in your success.\nOnce you have written down your story, take a few moments to review it and decide how you really feel about it. Are you giving it more power than it deserves? Now it\u2019s time to make a decision. You need to decide if you want to continue hiding behind this story, or break free of it, take back control of your life, and choose success!\nThe object of this exercise is to make you aware of anything you may be hiding behind, that is stopping you from having everything your heart desires. Just being aware of it has so much impact, as awareness is the first stage of change.\nObserve yourself over the coming weeks and months, and take note of the times when your story rears its head\u2026 It\u2019s difficult to hide behind an excuse that you have put the spotlight on! You may even enjoy a chuckle at yourself, as you make the decision to step up and push through whatever challenge you\u2019re faced with.\nGo get \u2018em tiger\u2026 Grrrr!\nPowered by har-d.

The geographical reach of his work ranged from the Pacific to the Atlantic and from Prince William Sound to the Gulf of Mexico. His excellent scientific contributions and experienced leadership also included the formation of successful science teams, the most recent being the ECOGIG consortium.\u201d\nHighsmith dedicated his career as a marine scientist to the study of seabed oil and gas hydrates. He focused over two decades on researching oil spills, most recently in the Gulf of Mexico and previously in Alaska. His lengthy record of publication and service made him a leader in the marine sciences research community.\nIn 2010, following the Deepwater Horizon oil spill, Highsmith repurposed a research cruise in the Gulf of Mexico to study the incident, a decision that would make his team the first academic cruise to work at the site. In a recent interview, Dr. Highsmith described this decision as life changing for him and credited the dedication and quality work of his research team as a major reason behind founding and leading the ECOGIG consortium. When asked what he wanted the public to know about his consortium\u2019s oil spill research, Highsmith said that \u201cas scientists we are honest brokers of information looking for the truth.\u201d\nDr. Alice Clark, Vice Chancellor for Research and Sponsored Programs at the University of Mississippi said, \u201cThroughout his career, Ray mentored many scientists and helped to shape the scientific research agenda in marine sciences for decades. He is being remembered by his colleagues for his intelligence, his determination, his thoughtfulness and as a person whose contributions invigorated research programs and enhanced institutions.\u201d\nThe GoMRI science community extends sympathy to Dr. Highsmith\u2019s family and friends.\nMemorial contributions may be made to the American Cancer Society, 1800 West Main Street, Tupelo, MS 38801. For additional information, read the University of Mississippi press release and newspaper obituary.\nThe GoMRI is a 10-year, $500 million independent research program established by an agreement between BP and the Gulf of Mexico Alliance to study the effects of the Deepwater Horizon incident and the potential associated impact of this and similar incidents on the environment and public health.\nRita Colwell Honored with International Award for Tropical Medicine Research",

There is, however, a younger generation that tends to judge what is right or wrong based on consequences, to judge a person\u2019s value by his or her credentials and successes; and to ask many questions before making a commitment. Members of this younger generation tend to place trust in the facts of science and inferences of logic, rather than in personal opinions and traditional beliefs.\nTo find brief comments about the search for truth (plus short excerpts from Handling Truth: Navigating the Riptides of Rhetoric, Religion, Reason, and Research) follow the author on Twitter: https://twitter.com/handlingtruth. Sign up to follow handlingtruth on Twitter.\nPosted on August 2, 2012 by William\nPosted in Introduction\t| Leave a reply\nCan an Islamic state be a democracy?\nDemocracy requires public discussion and compromise, whereas articles of religious faith cannot be negotiated. When believers take power through revolution or election, democracy is threatened. In an Islamic Democracy (or a Christian Democracy, for that matter), laws must pass the test of compliance with religious doctrine, and heretical speech tends to be criminalized. Without free speech and unrestricted political debate, a society does not, and cannot, have real democracy. To use the terms described in Handling Truth (2012), democracies seek truths in Rhetorica, not Mystica. Mystica\u2019s truths guide theocracies.\n\u2013William Melvin Gardner\u2013\nTruth and Language\nThe popular notion of truth is that it is the actual state of affairs, whether known or not, whether tested or not. But until a specific state of affairs is asserted, we cannot test and confirm that it is true. So to say truth can be unstated and therefore untested leaves the word truth pointing vaguely into the unknown.\nFor an assertion to be tested and found to be truth, it must be spoken or written. This may seem an innocent requirement, but it carries a heavy implication: truth is a product of language.\nTo establish an assertion as true, we must have an accepted method for evaluating assertions, but this does not restrict the establishment of truth to the methods of logic. In Handling Truth, four traditional methods for evaluating the truth of assertions are recognized: debate, faith, logic, and research. While you or I may accept or reject any of these methods, we must recognize that others may accept the methods we reject\u2013and reject the methods we accept.\nIt may be unsettling to think that truth relies on the rules of a testing method, but the truth we find depends on the test we select; if we use two different testing methods (e.g. faith and scientific research), we will find contradictory truths. And when we do, we can only reject the findings of one of the two methods, or live with dissonance.\nRecent Announcement of Handling Truth\nHandling Truth: Navigating the Riptides of Rhetoric, Religion, Reason, and Research was listed among the new titles in the \u201cNew and Notable\u201d column of Skeptical Inquirer [http://www.csicop.org/si/], Vol. 36 No. 2 (March/April 2012).\nNew Book Review of Handling Truth\nThe South African Medical Journal (SAMJ) Vol 102, No 3 (2012) contains a review of Handling Truth: Navigating the Riptides of Rhetoric, Religion, Reason, and Research. See at the following link to SAMJ: http://www.samj.org.za/index.php/samj/article/view/5606/3914\nIn the same issue of SAMJ there is an editorial analysis of health care in South Africa. The four domains of truth\u2014Rhetoria, Mystica, Logica, and Empirica\u2014defined in Handling Truth are used in analyzing the differences between scientific medicine and traditional healers. See at the following link to SAMJ: http://www.samj.org.za/index.php/samj/article/view/5712/3896\nQ/A: Political Truth\nQuestion: Is \u201cpolitical truth\u201d a contradiction in terms?\nAnswer: Some people refuse to apply the word truth to politics, but no less a document than the Declaration of Independence states: \u201cWe hold these truths [italics added] to be self evident\u2026.\u201d The political positions that followed were affirmed by 56 of our Founding Fathers and defended in the Revolutionary War\u2014but were these political assertions really true? In a secular democracy, political truths must pass no test of scriptural doctrine, logical analysis, or scientific research. They need pass only the tests of judgment that result from rhetorical debate and persuasion. Senators and Representatives decide, after formal debate and discussion, which assertions should be accepted as true. There is no practical alternative. We cannot cede the final decisions of government to theologians, philosophers, or scientists. We must rely on politicians to discover the truth.\nJuanie Noland\u2019s Review of Handling Truth\nGetting at the truth has for millennia challenged philosophers, theologians, scientists, and jurors, along with private detectives and the rest of us. It turns out, as in the song \u201cLookin\u2019 for Love,\u201d we may have been looking for truth in all the wrong places. William Gardner\u2019s interesting, readable book Handling Truth helps us look in the right places. According to Gardner, there are four domains of truth: Mystica (which includes religion), Rhetorica (common sense), Logica (reason), and Empirica (research). Each domain has its own rules for deciding what is true; this means the domains often conflict with one another. For instance, in the Empirica domain, truth is revealed only through supportive research data. Reason alone is insufficient. In the Mystica domain, \u201cGod created man,\u201d is a truth unacceptable by the rules of Empirica. In Empirica, \u201cHuman beings evolved from an earlier species.\u201d Is any domain superior to another? No, but each has its own assumptions; and the listener or reader should learn to recognize each domain and the boundaries of its truth claims.\nIn Chapter 9, \u201cTruth, Language and Information,\u201d Gardner connects human language development with emergence of the four truth domains. From primitive referential gesturing, humans evolved to speak, then write and read. The printing press invention made information available to all, and computers further accelerated its supply. As language and its dissemination methods evolved, so did our conceptions of truth. Thanks to abundant print materials and the Internet, we are more informed now than ever before, but also less discerning. Gardner reminds us that information is true only within its domain of origin.\nHandling Truth is an excellent book, one you will find yourself referring to long past the first read. I particularly recommend it for college undergraduate courses. As a retired teacher education professor, I regret that Handling Truth was unavailable when I was teaching.\nPosted in Handling Truth\t| Tagged Handling Truth\t| Leave a reply\nFebruary 2012 brought two reviews of Handling Truth: Navigating the Riptides of Rhetoric, Religion, Reason, and Research. One appears in the March/April issue of SKEPTICAL INQUIRER, available on newsstands, and the other, in LEADERSHIP, is available online (see http://www.leadershiponline.co.za/articles/other/1753-worth-a-read).\nE-books editions, professionally formatted by eBook Architects (http://ebookarchitects.com/), are available from Amazon or from Barnes & Noble. Please comment on your experience with these digital versions.\nMany early copies of the paperback version of Handling Truth were mailed out to reviewers late in 2011, and some of these copies, that contained a few uncorrected text errors, are now being sold online as used books.

        "raw_content": "Vietnam - India: More potentiality to expand cooperation\nUpdated at Saturday, 17 Nov 2018, 10:46\nThe Hanoitimes - Vietnamese Ambassador to India Pham Sanh Chau shared his thought about the visit by Indian President Ram Nath Kovind on November 18-20. The goal of US$15 billion trade turnover between India and Vietnam by 2020 is fully achievable and that the two countries can confidently set a new commercial goal.\nPham Sanh Chau, Vietnamese Ambassador to India at an event on Asia-Pacific region\nIt is the first visit of the Indian president to Vietnam after his inauguration in July 2016 and the third high level visit between the two countries\u2019 leaders in 2018. Please share your thoughts about this?\nVietnam is also the first Asian country that President Ram Nath Kovind pays an official visit after he took office. This reminded me of a historical event that Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru was the first foreign guest to visit Vietnam in 1954 after the victory of Dien Bien Phu. Another interesting thing is that 60 years ago, President Ho Chi Minh paid an official visit to India and was welcomed by Prime Minister J. Nehru and the people of India as \"a great revolutionary and a legend hero\".\nPresident Ram Nath Kovind's visit is considered a token of traditional friendship and growing effective partnership between the two sides. The regular exchange of high-ranking delegates has also strengthened the political trust between the two countries. The similarities of strategic interests as well as views on international issues have become a solid foundation for the two sides to develop political, defense and security relations. For India, Vietnam plays an important role in \u201cLook East Policy\u201d and as a reliable partner in ASEAN. Meanwhile, Vietnam has always considered India a trustful friend, supported India's greater prominent role in ASEAN.\nCould you please elaborate more about the visit?\nAn important point of the visit is that the first stop of the President Ram Nath Kovind is the My Son Sanctuary in Quang Nam province, which is the UNESCO World Heritage. This is a Hindu monument of the kingdom of Champa, which is currently supported by the Indian government for conservation and embellishment.\nFor many Indians, visiting My Son is like getting to the familiar values of their own country in a remote Southeast Asian land. Cham towers have become memorials of the deep cultural exchanges between Vietnam and India\nMore than a month in India, how do you feel about the subcontinent?\nIt is extremely surprising and interesting. India has inspired new feelings. The first time I came to India was 21 years ago but for a short time when accompanying the top leaders of Vietnam to visit India. At that time, I cannot fully understand the \"sub-continent\".\nMy first impression is the green space. Although these days the media reports on the pollution in New Delhi but as a diplomat traveling a lot around the world, I have not seen any countries which have as many green trees as in India.\nAnother impression is the Indian people. I have met officials, scholars, businesses, and people of India. They are extremely friendly and open people who always look at Vietnam as a developing and dynamic country. Talking with them, I found that the potentiality to expand Vietnam-India cooperation is tremendous.\nAre there a lot of reasons to be optimistic about the prospects for trade between the two countries?\nRight! Besides good relations in politics - diplomacy, national defense and security, economic and trade cooperation between Vietnam and India in recent years has made remarkable progress. India has become one of the 12 largest trading partners in Vietnam today.\nAccording to the Ministry of Industry and Trade of India, the bilateral trade between India and Vietnam in the fiscal year 2017 reached US$12.83 billion, an increase of 26.96% over the previous year. India\u2019s export to Vietnam reached US$7.81 billion, up by 15.13%. India\u2019 import reached US$5.01 billion, a rise of 51.14%. In the first 10 months of 2018, bilateral trade between the two countries reached US$9.2 billion, an increase of 47% over the same period last year.\nWith this growth momentum as well as the determination of the governments and businesses, the goal of achieving trade turnover of US$15 billion by 2020 is fully attainable and the two countries can confidently set a new commercial goals.\nThank you, Ambassador!\nTruong Hang\nHanoi has vast potential to become modernized city: Kazakhstan Ambassador (25 Oct 2018)",

Also known as \"sweet root,\" licorice root contains a compound that is about 50 times sweeter than sugar. Liquorice extracts have a number of medical uses, and they are also used in herbal and folk medications. Licorice is a traditional treatment for cough, asthma, and sore throat. One study found that gargling with licorice before getting anesthesia cut the incidence of postope rative sore throat by half.\nIn Azerbaijan, the history of licorice root processing goes back to the end of the XIX century. The licorice root is supplied from these places of Azerbaijan:\nKurdamir, Sabirabad, Saatli, Imishli, Zardab, Ujar, Barda, Agdash, Shabran, Khachmaz.\nHistorically, licorice root and licorice root products exported from Azerbaijan to many countries and it is exported today.These countries are Iran,Turkey,France, England,Spain, Japan, China, India, Egypt, and other countries.

This is a testament to Japan\u2019s remarkable resilience and admirable ability to build back stronger communities,\u201d he said, noting that this is an area where ASEAN and Japan can clearly benefit from greater collaboration and sharing of best practices.\nThe President also mentioned the Fukuda Doctrine during his intervention.\n\u201cWith its positive engagement anchored firmly on the Fukuda Doctrine, Japan continues to make inroads and break new grounds for cooperation with ASEAN,\u201d said the President .\nHe cited that the Fukuda Doctrine was the blueprint that ushered in a new era of more meaningful partnerships between Japan and ASEAN.\n\u201cThis year, we honored the significance of the Fukuda Doctrine with the unveiling of a memorial marker at Manila Hotel where then Prime Minister Takeo Fukuda made the historic pronouncement that redefined Japanese diplomacy in 1977,\u201d he said.\n\u201cToday, we continue to see the impact of the Fukuda Doctrine.

        "title": "INTERVIEW: Dream Theater's John Petrucci - I Heart Guitar",
        "raw_content": "Dream Theater\u2019s new, self-titled album is their twelfth, and it amounts to something of a resetting of the idea of what Dream Theater can be. 2010\u2019s A Dramatic Turn Of Events was a big test for the band: could they survive without co-founder Mike Portnoy behind the drum kit? The answer to this question was a resounding \u201cYes!\u201d ADTOE played up the band\u2019s many strengths \u2013 epic melodies, virtuosic interludes, intricate solos, odd-but-natural time signature shifts \u2013 and it did so in a way that was clearly Dream Theater, even with new drummer Mike Mangini in the engine room. But it was a very safe interpretation of what Dream Theater could be. Parallels were drawn between the album and 1992\u2019s Images & Words, for instance. And now with Dream Theater [Roadrunner], the band doesn\u2019t have anything to prove. They don\u2019t need to show you that they can continue to make albums that sound like Dream Theater. Instead they\u2019re free once more to make albums that are Dream Theater, that present the band as an evolving entity exploring what it can do. Dream Theater is perhaps the most naturally representative example of what the band can do since 1999\u2019s Scenes From A Memory, in that nothing seems forced.\nJohn Petrucci has taken on an especially weighty role in this latest era of Dream Theater. Portnoy was always big on pushing the creative aspect of the band in different directions. Now Petrucci is the band\u2019s sole producer and has taken on more of a mouthpiece role than he\u2019d previously assumed. And Petrucci\u2019s take on where Dream Theater needs to go seems to be a little more progressive, a little more reaching and intuitive and colourful than the progressive metal that seemed to dominate much of the band\u2019s output in the 2000s. I Heart Guitar caught up with Petrucci to discuss the new album\u2019s creative flashpoint and musical landmarks.\nThe previous album seemed like you were trying to make the definitive Dream Theater album, whereas this one seems a little more relaxed, more exploratory. Is that an accurate assessment?\nWe definitely approached A Dramatic Turn Of Events like we had something to prove as we were writing it, and we wanted to make sure we created something that was going to really assure our fans that we were here to stay and that everything was okay and that we were moving forward in a positive way. Definitely the tone of that album comes across that way, for sure. Now, this one: after that album came out and thankfully was received so well, we had a successful tour where we were able to learn more about Mike Mangini as a person and as a drummer, and we were able to, as you said, go into this album and let our hair down and forge ahead with a new sound, a new approach, maybe more experimental. I think that the music on this album comes across as having a more gusty rock thing. When we were doing some of the solo sections we wanted to capture the vibe of playing live and improvising and playing with that kind of real fire that happens when you\u2019re playing together as a band. That\u2019s how we wrote it and that\u2019s how we think it\u2019s coming across. With the last one there wasn\u2019t a drummer in the room as we were writing it, so it\u2019s probably more controlled-sounding, and this one is \u2013 and I\u2019ve used this term before to describe Mangini \u2013 unleashed. Freer-sounding.\nDid you do anything in particular as a producer to facilitate that way of working?\nYeah, absolutely. From the beginning, in order to capture that, what we did totally differently was not only did we set up in the studio where everyone\u2019s playing live, but we made sure that the sounds that we were capturing at that very early stage were usable sounds that could be performances on the album. So we took some extra time in the beginning to get all the drum sounds, the guitar sounds, bass and everything, so as we were writing, if we captured that moment of fire and passion when it was written we were able to actually keep that and integrate it along with whatever we had overdubbed as well. And that was really, really helpful. As a producer I was able to hear what the album was sounding like right from the beginning. I didn\u2019t have to wait for the mix to hear how the guitar would sound once it was hyped up. Everything was already sounding that way. When you\u2019re hearing on the album is what it sounded like from day one, pretty much!\nA few of these songs, particularly \u201cThe Bigger Picture\u201d and \u201cBehind The Veil\u201d are very strong melodically. Those choruses are really powerful.\nY\u2019know what? It\u2019s not that I did this differently but maybe I focused on it a lot more this time: there were three phases to the melodic and lyrical process. Phase one was me and Jordan and James getting together to listen to the tracks as instrumentals then map out all the vocal parts and lay down some very rough vocal melodies as guides as I was writing lyrics. Then of course, once your\u2019e writing you start to really figure out how that\u2019s gonna shape up, so it might not exactly follow with that guide. It might stray. And I always had an acoustic with me and I always stripped down the track to just the chord progression, and made it so I was almost doing like a campfire sort of thing where I was playing the acoustic and strumming, and if the melody at that point felt right and strong, then I knew it was write. If not, then I went back in. And then the third stage was I presented all that to James before he went in, just me, him and an acoustic. I\u2019d say \u201cWhat do you think of this?\u201d and he\u2019d say \u201cWell, maybe I\u2019d take it here and change this a little bit,\u201d and I made sure it was really comfortable for him and his range. So I think those three stages of development \u2013 and if you want you can even add a fourth once he was actually singing \u2013 basically a lot of focus was put on the melodic structure and content in order to make the songs really reach people, because I think at the end of the day that\u2019s the goal. It\u2019s fun to play technical and come up with cool riffs and have a heavy guitar sound and all that fun, cool stuff, but at the end of the day if you really want to reach people with your music the vocals are generally what pulls people in.\nWell that\u2019s what sticks with you after you become familiar with the songs. Once your head has been blown off by a fast syncopated lick enough times that it\u2019s not a surprise any more, the melody is what you come back to in the long term.\nYeah. It all has to be hand-in-hand. There can\u2019t be a disconnect. Everything has to have a musical purpose to achieve what you\u2019re trying to achieve with the song, which is you\u2019re trying to in very basic terms express something and then have people relate to it. It doesn\u2019t matter if it\u2019s folk music or progressive music or metal. People need to relate to it on some level.\nThere are moments on this album where the bass is way more upfront than ever before.\nAbsolutely. It\u2019s difficult in our band because the guitar takes up a lot of room, the drums are busy, keyboards are just so wide and varied in tone and range, and it\u2019s sometimes hard for the bass. And a lot of time the bass is doubling the guitar, and especially with the seven-string it can be hard to differentiate. So this time we really, really wanted to say \u201cLet\u2019s get John Myung out there. Let\u2019s really distinguish the bass.\u201d There were two ways we did that. The main way is just the talent of Richard Chycki in the way he recorded John\u2019s bass, because I\u2019ve never heard it sound like that. Rich worked with Rush a lot so he knew exactly how to get that Geddy Lee, out-front sound. And he did it magically. The bass has never sounded this good. And then the second way was to leave room in the arrangements. You\u2019ll notice a few times where the bass is on its own or the rhythm guitars drop out or there\u2019s no keyboards and it\u2019s just guitar, bass and drums. By doing that arrangement-wise we left more room for the bass to fill out. And I love it. Some of my favourite moments on the album to listen to are those bass moments, and it\u2019s great to hear John out front like that. When we were really young and going to Berklee that\u2019s the way he used to sound! He used to be almost a lead bass player. And if you listen to our really early demos the bass was crankin\u2019. It was so loud! And it hasn\u2019t been that way in a long time, so it\u2019s kinda fun!\nIt must be a strange moment before the album comes out, when you\u2019re sitting on it and hearing feedback from people who have heard it but the general public hasn\u2019t got their hands on it yet.\nAbsolutely! I\u2019m dyin\u2019! it\u2019s like you have something you\u2019re so proud of and you just want to say \u201cCheck this out! Listen to this!\u201d There\u2019s this feeling of excitement and anticipation and a little bit of anxiety, but generally it\u2019s pride. You feel like you worked really hard on something and you just can\u2019t wait to share it. That\u2019s what it\u2019s all about: sharing it and having that experience with our listeners that we\u2019re really lucky to have.\nWell just looking at the reactions to \u201cThe Enemy Inside\u201d when it was released\u2026\nI don\u2019t think I saw any negative comments!\nY\u2019know what? Yeah! That was so awesome! That was so incredible to see. And it just puts a smile on my face. I love our listeners because they\u2019re very discerning but they\u2019re very passionate and really supportive of what we do, so when I saw that kind of reaction I was like, \u201cY\u2019know what? That\u2019s freaking awesome.\u201d Because to put out something you\u2019re proud of and to have people react in the way that you would hope means that you\u2019re all on the same page, and it\u2019s just a great beginning to this whole process.\nWhat\u2019s going on with that wild, off-the-cuff solo in \u201cSurrender To Reason\u201d?\nHa! That was a fun moment. I pictured us in a smoky bar at 2am just going for it. It was fun to keep the guitar dry like that.\nWhat were you using guitar-wise on the album?\nThis time around I used my Music Man JP13. And the use of that guitar from the beginning really dictated the sound of the record. Because in a metal band the guitar sound is everything. I find the guitar and the drum sound really dictate the type of impact that album\u2019s going to have. And the JP13 has a preamp in it \u2013 it\u2019s the first time I\u2019ve used a guitar that has a preamp \u2013 and it has new pickups in it, DiMarzio Illuminator pickups. And the whole sound of the guitar is a lot more alive. It breathes and it\u2019s very open. It has an attack and a growl to it, and you can hear that on \u201cEnigma Machine\u201d and \u201cBehind The Veil.\u201d Those big guitar riffs just sound monstrous. So that guitar dictated the sound of the album. The main rhythm sound for most of the songs is a Mesa Boogie Mark V in Mark IV mode. A couple of songs I used in Mark IIC+, like \u201cBehind The Veil\u201d for example. The solo sounds are the Mark IIC+. And on a couple of songs I used the Mesa Boogie Royal Atlantic, which I\u2019ve never used before, where I was going for less of a percussive metal sound and more of a compressed rock sound. \u201cLooking Glass\u201d and \u201cAlong For The Ride\u201d are the Royal, for example.\nClick here to buy the Music Man Jp13 John Petrucci 6-String\nI tested out the JP13 at NAMM this year and I loved that boost.\nThe boost is great and I used that for the solos, which is awesome because as much gain as a lot of amps have, sometimes you just feel like you wanna kick in that extra step, and I generally would do that with a pedal, maybe a Tube Screamer or something like that. But I really don\u2019t need that any more because I just do it on the guitar now. Just tap that volume control and it boosts \u2026I forget what exact amount dB it boosts by but you can set it inside the guitar. It\u2019s at least +12dB of just volume, which pushes the front of the Boogie and then turns into more sustain. It\u2019s great.\nHow do you go into developing a pickup? Do you describe it abstract terms or something more technical?\nThis pickup set is building upon the Crunch Lab and the LiquiFire, so we\u2019re starting there, and most of it \u2013 really all of it \u2013 is the work of Steve Blucher at DiMarzio. I might describe something like \u201cI want the low end to be tighter\u201d and he\u2019ll do his magic. But in the case of this one, knowing that the guitar was going to have a preamp in it and everything, he was able to predict what would be necessary to make the guitar be more open-sounding and able to breathe more. He did a fantastic job, and I\u2019ve been working with him so long that I barely have to say much. He just instinctively knows. It\u2019s wonderful.\nHow are you using the Fractal Audio Axe-FX?\nI use the Axe-FX in my rig for all my effects. On the last tour I had two Mark Vs and I had the Axe-FX in there basically doing everything. I had some pedals that we had put on a little pedalboard to go in front but generally the Axe-FX was all the delays, choruses and things like that, with the exception of the pedals \u2013 my TC Electronic Dreamscape chorus and stuff like that. And also, we go in there and tone-match everything, so I have all those sounds on file to be able to use in different circumstances where it\u2019s more convenient to plug that in. I just did a Young Guitar video where I just brought that thing in and turned it on and there were the Boogie sounds \u2013 it was wonderful for that as well.\nThat\u2019s the thing about guitar \u2013 there\u2019s always some great new toy to try out, the minute you think you\u2019re happy with your tone.\nYeah, that\u2019s the joy of being a guitar player: \u201cThat sounds great \u2026let\u2019s change it!\u201d\nOne question that came up on Facebook when I was preparing for this interview was, do you have any plans to play \u201cSpace Dye Vest\u201d live? [Mike Portnoy had gone on record as saying \u201cSpace Dye Vest\u201d was so identified with former Dream Theater keyboard player Kevin Moore that he didn\u2019t think ever be played without him]\nUm\u2026 I don\u2019t really have plans on doing that. I mean, you never know. I\u2019m not sure how great of a live song that\u2019d be. It\u2019s obviously very mellow and spacey and atmospheric. I mean, it could be a cool moment in the set. It\u2019d certainly be rewarding to people that have wanted to hear that. It\u2019s not the first song I\u2019d go to when thinking of what to play in a live show.\nYou\u2019d need to follow it with something that\u2019s really up!\nYeah definitely! It might depress the audience! But it\u2019s a cool song. I\u2019m sure eventually we will but I haven\u2019t thought too much about that at this moment.\nAny Australian tour plans?\nNot right now but I\u2019m hoping we will get to Australia, because we haven\u2019t in a few years. We had a great time when we last went. It\u2019s been a while. And not only was it great playing there but it\u2019s such a beautiful country and I just remember all of it \u2013 the sights, the weather, everything was amazing and I would love to get back there. Hopefully we\u2019ll get back there.\nWe want to see you guys with Mangini, c\u2019mon!\nI know! Yeah! That\u2019s a funny thing to think about too, that we had experienced on the last tour was \u201cOh hey, nobody\u2019s seen Mike play with the band.\u201d So it was exciting the whole way through.\nDream Theater is released September 20 in Australia and September 24 in the USA.\nJake Bowen Gets DiMarzio Signature Pickups\nNEWS: New John Petrucci signature DiMarzios\nCategoriesNewsTagsDimarzio, Dream Theater, Illuminator, interview, John Petrucci, Music Man\n\u2190 Previous Previous post: Black Sabbath Melbourne Gigs Coming To DVD\nNext \u2192 Next post: Alex Skolnick Joins The ESP Family",

Our management framework fosters operational excellence in accountability, control and service delivery. Our IT governance model is based on an optimal division of responsibilities and goes far beyond traditional management models and those that focus on cost provisioning and labor arbitrage. IIS\u2019 IT governance model allows clients to maintain optimal alignment of strategic IT functions to meet their business needs and increase competitiveness, as well as to apply best practices in order to reduce costs and delivery time for operations and special projects alike. The model is based on four fundamental principles:\nA clear division of responsibilities among stakeholders to eliminate redundancies. To that end, the organization is divided into three areas of responsibility:\nThe client\u2019s business team \u2013 the IT services\u2019 end-user with final authority over the business requirements and service demand\nThe client\u2019s IT management team \u2013 provides strategic leadership for IT functions, aligning IT technologies, business requirements on a factory-type model\nIIS \u2013 responsible for implementing and executing IT operations in cooperation with the client\u2019s IT management team based on a factory-type model\nBest practice processes for service delivery across the IT delivery chain, from infrastructure to applications and project delivery services\nConcise, fact-based reports for the IT management team on the visibility and supervision of the client\u2019s IT vision\nOrganizational structure and management framework that allows for continuous interaction between the parties to ensure ongoing alignment between users\u2019 needs and IT service evolution\nIIS\u2019 IT outsourcing model is tailored to each client\u2019s specific business needs. Our approach to IT governance offers the following advantages:\nAll IT initiatives stem from business requirements and are duly approved and prioritized by the client\nClear reporting provides complete transparency regarding the nature, quantity and quality of services provided\nRoles and responsibilities are clearly defined, and an effective management and control structure is put in place to guarantee a clear division of responsibilities, full service coverage, clear accountability and the elimination of service overlaps",

Filings that Google lodged with the US regulatory authorities indicate the multinational's effective tax rate has dropped from 39 per cent to 31 per cent, indicating it is saving approximately \u20ac100 million a year in taxes via its Irish business.\nGoogle has two Irish based operations, one of which, Google Ireland Holdings Ltd, received $388.55 million (\u20ac330.5 million) in royalty payments in 2004, its first year in operation. Royalty payments for intellectual property developed in Ireland are not subject to Irish tax, so the multinational may end up paying relatively little in Irish tax on this income. In 2005 the Wall Street Journal reported that an Irish subsidiary of Microsoft was helping it reduce its tax bill by at least $500 million annually. The hitherto unknown subsidiary, Round Island One Ltd, made an after-tax profit of $3.8 billion in 2004, and paid $324 million in Irish corporate tax. (Source: Irish Times)\nSetting up a limited liability company offers just that - limited liability. Shareholders in a limited liability company are only liable to lose the share capital they subscribe. For sole traders and in partnerships, the individuals personal assets are at risk if there is a claim against the organisation.\nA company is a legal form of business organisation. It is a separate legal entity and, therefore, is separate and distinct from those who run it. The company (and not the individual shareholders) is the appropriate person to be sued in the event that debts are incurred by the company which remain unpaid, despite demand. (Source: Companies Registration Office)\nScope for greater company pension scheme to be secured through a limited company.\nA limited company has a greater ability to raise finance by the issue of shares and also under the Business Expansion Scheme.\nOwners of businesses looking for outside investors or investors looking to invest in unquoted companies may be able to take advantage of the tax incentive known as the Relief for Investment in Corporate Trades, otherwise known as the Business Expansion Scheme (BES). The Scheme provides individual investors with tax relief in respect of investment in certain manufacturing, service, tourism, R & D and plant cultivation companies, companies formed for the purpose of constructing and leasing advance factory buildings and certain music recording activities. By so doing the BES can substantially reduce the cost to an investor or his/her investment. It also enhances the ability of eligible companies to attract outside investment. (Source: Revenue Commissioners)\nOwnership of a limited company can be spread over a greater number of people.\nPersonal tax advantages can accrue for directors of a limited company.\nThere may be a greater degree of business credibility of trading through a limited company.\nRegistration of the limited company name protects it from use by another limited company.\nThe CRO may have to refuse a name, if:\n- it is identical or similar to a name already appearing on the register of companies;\n- it is offensive;\n- it would suggest state sponsorship.\nIreland is becoming increasingly attractive as a holding company location for foreign investors particularly where it is combined with a trading activity such as headquarter activities, treasury or research & development.\nOver 1,050 overseas companies have chosen Ireland as their European base and are involved in a wide range of activities in sectors as diverse as e-Business, engineering, information communications technologies, pharmaceuticals, medical technologies, financial and international services.

He is now a consultant with own company, Gade S&V. Gade was heavily involved with the introduction of the world\u2019s first commercially available Sound Intensity system in the 1980es, and he wrote several B&K Technical Reviews covering this topic. He has continued working in this field with array acoustics, i.e. Acoustical Holography and Beamforming techniques. His main focus over the years has been Modal Analysis starting when the modern era of structural measurements began in the 1982 introducing worldwide the concepts of Dual Channel Analysis and input/output measurements techniques. Since 1999 he has also worked with the development of output only modal analysis, i.e. Operational Modal Analysis. His other responsibilities included digital signal analysis, sound power, signature analysis, machine diagnostics, and Sound Quality. He has presented more than 150 papers at conferences such as SAE, JSAE, Inter-noise, ICSV, IMAC, ISMA and IOMAC. Gade has written more than 50 major articles including 20 articles in Sound & Vibration Magazine and 20 Br\u00fcel & Kj\u00e6r Technical Reviews and a chapter in \u201cHandbook of Noise and Vibration Control\u201d (John Wiley & Sons, Inc.). He has lectured extensively throughout the world including Japan, China, India, Australia, Brazil and USA. Gade holds a M.Sc. degree from the Danish Technical University in Copenhagen in electronics/acoustics in 1973 and is educated in 1980 as a lecturer as well. Gade is member of Institute of Noise Control Engineering, INCE, Society for Experimental Mechanics, Inc., SEM and New York Academy of Science.\nCurriculum Vitae for Carlos Estuardo Ventura:\nDr. Carlos Ventura is a Civil Engineer with specializations in structural dynamics and earthquake engineering. He has been a faculty member of the Department of Civil Engineering at the University of British Columbia (UBC) in Canada since 1992. He is currently the Director of the Earthquake Engineering Research Facility (EERF) at UBC, and is the author of more than 480 papers and reports on earthquake engineering, structural dynamics and modal testing. Dr. Ventura has conducted research about earthquakes and structural dynamics for more than thirtyh years. Three of his most significant contributions in recent years are the development and implementation of performance-based design methods for seismic retrofit of low rise school buildings, a unique seismic structural health monitoring program for bridges in BC, known as the BCSIMS project, and the first network-based earthquake early warning system for schools and public institutions in BC. These projects have contributed in a very significant manner to the seismic risk reduction efforts in BC. In addition to his academic activities, Dr. Ventura is a recognized international consultant on structural vibrations and safety of large Civil Engineering structures. The quality of his research work has been recognized by several national and international awards, as well as being appointed as member of the Canadian Academy of Engineering and of the Engineering Institute of Canada, and Fellow of Engineers Canada.

Histone acetyltransferase (HAT) is a consequential enzyme in processes of cardiac hypertrophy (cardiomegaly). According the high prevalence of cardiovascular disease and necessity for prevention, this review had studied the effect of curcumin on the activity of the histone acetyltransferases and cardiac hypertrophy process.\nMETHODS: In this study, scientific articles indexed in databases \"Web of science, Scopus, PubMed, SID, ISI\" were studied using key words \"Curcumin, Tumeric, Histone Acetyltransferases, Cardiomegaly\". 66 articles were studied eventually of the 640 articles in the initial search.\nFINDINGS: Cardiac hypertrophy, as one of the most common symptoms of cardiovascular disease, may lead to the heart failure and cardiac arrest. Curcumin plays an important role in the prevention and treatment of cardiac hypertrophy; which inhibits the DNA transcription and myocardial uncontrolled growth by reducing the activity of HAT and GATA4 acetylation. Curcumin acts as a selective histone acetyltransferase inhibitor and reduces the ratio of heart weight to body weigh. In addition, curcumin reduces the activity of NF-\u03baB, a transcription factor in the pathophysiology of myocardial diseases, and inflammatory biomarkers, including MCP-1, IL-6, IL-1, TNF-\u03b1.\nCONCLUSION: Although the mechanism of curcumin is not as clear, according to previous studies it can be realized turmeric is associated with the inhibition of histone acetyltransferase activity and prevent cardiac hypertrophy. However, curcumin is not toxic to humans in high doses, but its overuse use is not recommended due to limited bioavailability.\nKeywords: Curcumin, Tumeric, Histone Acetyltransferases, Cardiomegaly\nType of Study: Review | Subject: nutriiton\nHabibi E, Esmaeeli H.

        "title": "JCVA - Daniel Chust - Biography",
        "raw_content": "An acclaimed and witty installation artist, Chust was born in Brazil. He lives and works in Barcelona and has been widely shown in Spain, France and throughout Europe. For some time now, his extremely diverse installations, which use an assortment of media and approaches, all refer to one subject matter only: the artist's own studio. Some of these \"studios\" look like children's play stations, colorful and too small for an adult to enter into; others offer interactive opportunities, and others yet function as a still and distant object. One of his model studios includes the following sign: METHODOLOGY OF WORK\n1. I have an idea: reproduce my studio.\n2. I don't have any idea: reproduce my studio\n3. I have another idea: reproduce my studio\nIn another particularly striking and provocative installation, Chust used actual money he won as a prize \u2013 2400 bills of five euros each, to construct a one-meter long miniature studio. While the studio itself sometimes remains the same over many years, the resulting works offer myriad interpretations and approaches to the meaning of the studio, for the artist, the viewer, and for art itself.\nChust was one of two Barcelona artists chosen by the JCVA for a Jerusalem exchange. He came to Jerusalem in January, 2006. As his subject matter is his own studio, the JCVA arranged a shared studio for him with a local artist. The work he made as a result of the residency was shown in a joint exhibition with the work of his fellow Barcelonian, Domenec as well as with that of Koby Levy and Doron Rabina from Israel, who were chosen for the Barcelona exchange. The exhibition, Passer By, co-curated with the JCVA by Barcelona curator Marti Peran, opened in May 2007 in the Artists' Studios gallery space in Tel-Aviv and was very well-attended. It opens in Barcelona in the La Capella Gallery in September 2007.\nThe work Chust produced as a result of the exchange project between the Barcelona Institute of Culture and the Jerusalem Center for the Visual Arts (JCVA) adheres to his usual practice and replicates the image of the Jerusalem studio he worked in. One of the pieces produced here, a miniaturized replica of the studio in porcelain was planned to be granted as a gift to his sponsors. This impulse echoes the dedicatory scenes often depicted in frescos and altar-pieces during the early Renaissance, wherein the donors appear as part of the religious scene.\nHere Daniel Chust was aiming to reverse the roles: the artist takes the donor's place and the patron becomes the recipient. Chust's choice amuses and surprises us as he turns around the well-known images of the dedicatory scene.\nAll of Chust\u2019s works bear the word \u201cair\u201d in their title, and come\nfrom brands or expressions that feature the word \u201cair.\u201d Chust\u2019s titles function as ready-mades that convey mental images and forms. While Airsoft rings of smoothness and evokes a sensual feeling, it is actually the name of an American sports gun.\nA tiny miniature studio, made of silver and reminiscent of a piece of jewelry, this piece was placed at the very corner of an otherwise empty gallery. A large projection of the jewel completed this installation by drawing the viewer's attention. Finding the actual jewel, which is only three centimeters long, involved some searching, and usually took visitors a little longer.",

He said Sabeghi told him he was arrested and beaten by a group of policemen as he was leaving the protest to go home.\n\"He told me he was in the hospital with a lacerated spleen and that the cops had jumped him,\" Kelly said. \"They put him in jail, and he told them he was injured, and they denied him medical treatment for about 18 hours.\"\nMeanwhile, here's the video of the couple being deliberately run down at Occupy Oakland by a guy in a Mercedes:\nNow, this is a good example of everyone acting like an idiot. What seems to happen is that the march is moving along and holding up traffic. The Mercedes guy gets frustrated. I mean, he seems to be an entitled asshole who thinks that his time is super important. So he starts inching his way through the crowd. One of the marchers gets pissed and stops in front of the car and bangs on the hood. So, he's being sort of self righteous and stupid. And then Mercedes guy guns it, running marcher guy down, as well as a woman who wasn't doing anything.\nThis is one of those situations that could have been avoided at any point if one of the parties had made an effort to be less dickish and entitled. The marchers were being a little bit dickish by not letting the cars through. The driver was being a little bit dickish by forcing his way through anyway. The one guy was being a little bit dickish when he started banging on the car.\nBut running someone down? That's totally out of control.\nThere are two places where the Oakland Police failed here. First of all, managing the relationship between the marchers and the traffic would be a much better way to spend police resources than, say, throwing flash grenades at people who are trying to help an injured protester. From what I have seen, this is one of the things that the NYPD have been doing really well.\nSecond, you know the guy who was driving the car? They happily sent him on his way. Move along. Nothing to see here. Certainly not a two-tiered justice system.\nHere are a just a couple of relevant shots from an excellent series of photos at The Frame:\nOne of the two people who got run down by the Mercedes.\nAwww . . . don't worry, Mister Mercedes Driver! The Oakland PD doesn't arrest nice, rich, white guys!\nWhen will Oakland arrest and charge the Merecdes driver?\nJGF November 8, 2011 at 1:12 AM\nI assume by now we know the driver's name?\nJGF: You know, I haven't heard anything more about it. It's a clear enough photo that I would think an ID would be possible. I'll do some snooping.",

Salman is found guilty by the court in killing a homeless man in a 2002 hit-and-run crash after a night out drinking.\nThe sessions court judge DW Deshpande said that all the charges against the film actor including culpable homicide not amounting to murder, had been proved.\nThe judge said 49-year-old Khan was driving the car at the time of the accident and the defence\u2019s contention that his driver Ashok Singh was at the wheel was not probable.\nThe Bollywood heartthrob, who was wearing a white shirt and blue jeans, broke down on hearing the verdict and was in tears. Khan\u2019s family members too were upset and his two sisters also broke down in the courtroom. His politician friend Baba Siddique and brother Sohail khan were too upset and left the court early.\nThe judge then heard arguments on the quantum of sentence and Khan\u2019s lawyer sought a lesser sentence in view of his humanitarian work. He said the actor had paid Rs 19 lakh as compensation to the victims and would do more if ordered.\nBeing Human team also produced their balance sheet in the court that marked 42 crore rupees in charity from Salman through the organization.\nThe prosecution sought the maximum punishment for the actor while as Khan himself and his lawyers pleaded with the judge for a lesser sentence.",

The Cold War was a result of this division of power and of the important policy of spheres of influence. . Some of these strategies included encouraging the communist takeover of governments in Eastern Europe, the setting up of Comecon, the Warsaw Pact, the presence of the Red Army in Eastern Europe, and the Brezhnev Doctrine (Phillips 118). The progression of the Cold War influenced the development of society, which became aware of the threat of nuclear war. This can be seen at the example of the war in former Yugoslavia. According to Barraclough, the Cold War is associated with the conflict of interests, which involved European countries, the Middle East and South East Asia.\nMy first inclination would be to answer the first question with a clear YES. The impact of the Cold War on the development of many countries was enormous. In addition, the.S. Issues of identity will inevitably impinge upon the incident of armed conflict, whether this is between or within states. The Cold war provided the opportunities for achieving independence of the Baltic States and some former Soviet Republics.

        "raw_content": "Daniel Park \u2013 New Mexico\u2019s Most Talented Musician\nLast week the Dirty River Boys performed at Cool Canyon Nights. With an impressive local following, we can all agree they\u2019re a band worth driving to see, but it was the opening act that had me speechless.\nAlbuquerque native Daniel Park performed a handful of original songs and a few covers on the pavilion stage. After making a short announcement about his recent appearance on America\u2019s Got Talent, Park began to play. Now, when I say \u201cplay\u201d I don\u2019t mean he strung a few notes on a guitar and let this band handle the rest. This guy plays the guitar, violin, and drums. Well, he beats on his guitar a little to make it sound like he\u2019s drumming. Regardless, he does little segments on each instrument, records it, then plays it back throughout the song to form the classiest version of a one-man band you\u2019ll ever hear.\nCheck out Daniel performing \u201cAmarillo by Morning\u201d below and you\u2019ll see what I mean. First, let me say, yes... I know it\u2019s not rock music, but give it a chance. The kid has some chops.\nWatch the video below to see exactly how Daniel plays, records, and replays the music throughout his songs. It\u2019s impressive. He\u2019s got a great voice, exceptional skills, and, for my ladies, he\u2019s pretty easy on the eyes. Yeah, don\u2019t act like you didn\u2019t notice those arm muscles pressing against that shirt, ladies. Swoon.\nIf you like Daniel\u2019s music, check out his Facebook page and buy his CD on iTunes.\nFiled Under: acoustic, cool canyon nights, daniel park",

        "raw_content": "In which I muse on curtains and growing up\nI grew up in a home filled with handmade textiles. My mother made most of the soft furnishings, everything from blankets to tablecloths to embroidered guest hand towels. And that doesn't even cover the decorative things like tapestry cushions and Christmas tree ornaments. It was (and is) cozy in my mother's home, soft and warm and welcoming.\nInevitably, I started to do the same with my own home when I moved out. It's a very different style, to be sure, but I have handmade blankets on the bed and crocheted cushions on the sofa, along with lace snowflakes on the Christmas tree and samplers on the wall. \"It's what grown-ups do,\" says the little voice in the back of my head.\nThe one thing I had never done was make my own curtains. That's Mom's thing. Actual curtains to keep in the warmth at night and sheers for privacy's sake during the day. I had never needed them, but the Spouse and I recently moved into a ground-floor flat that faces the road. It was a choice between making sheers or never opening the blinds.\nMom came through with a set of surplus sheers from her previous house that didn't fit her new windows, along with the leftover fabric in case I needed to make more. Good thing, too: the picture window in our bedroom took two curtains, so we were one short.\nI had planned to leave the existing curtains as they were, but they were longer than the window openings and were driving me potty. So I spent the afternoon hemming the existing four and making one all by myself.\nIt's such a strange thing, really, but I had been terribly intimidated at the thought of making my own curtains. I don't know why - it's not like I've never hemmed interminable rectangles of fabric before. But somehow this was a much bigger deal than making garb or knitting socks. Maybe it was because Mom hasn't made any curtains since I left home, at least not that I've watched her make. All my memories of the process are from before I really started sewing properly.\nI feel like I've levelled up or gotten bonus adulting points or something. Clearly it's time to have ice cream for supper.",

        "raw_content": "A Day Away: Darrow gets his space in Dayton\nBy design on July 31, 2017 Comments Off on A Day Away: Darrow gets his space in Dayton\nIt took 92 years but Clarence Darrow finally stands opposite his historic opponent William Jennings Bryan in front of the Rhea County Courthouse in Dayton, Tennessee. Bryan, the defender of Creationism during the Scopes Monkey Trial in 1925, got a statue in 2005 courtesy of the Bryan College Board of Trustees..\nDarrow, the defender of Evolution in the trial, lost the decision by the local jury and his client, John Scopes a local teacher, received a minor fine of $100. The trial was carried live nationally on radio and was covered daily in newspapers across America.\nBut Darrow and his cause may have lost the battle but won the war. Two years later the Tennessee Supreme Court reversed the decision on a technicality.\nThe fight was over a law the state legislature passed forbidding the teaching of evolution in public schools. Businessmen in Dayton talked the teacher into violating the law to get publicity and visitors to the small Rhea County Courthouse town.\nToday the downtown section of Dayton remains much as it did then except for the closing on July 8th of the Rogers Pharmacy. The drug store was a popular place during the trial and founder R. F. Rogers offered his house to Bryan during and after the trial. Greeted as a hero by the citizens of Rhea County, Bryan was a former U.S. Senator and three-time presidential candidate. When he learned of the test case against the Tennessee anti-evolution law he volunteered to become part of the prosecution team.\nDarrow, a nationally-known attorney who often represented unpopular causes, also learned of the case and volunteered his services..\n\u201cI think this case will be remembered because it is the first case of this sort since we stopped trying people in America for witchcraft, because here we have done our best to turn back the tide that has sought to force itself upon this modern world, of testing every fact in science by a religious dictum,\u201d Darrow said during the trial.\nDuring the trial Bryan took the witness chair as an expert on the Bible and Christianity. Darrow cross-examined him and his questions pitted science against a literal interpolation of the Scriptures. Immediately following the trial Bryan set out on a lecture tour but returned five days later ill and died in the Rogers\u2019 House in Dayton. He is buried in Arlington Cemetery.\nThe Darrow statue was suggested by local resident Ruth Ann Wilson and was funded by Freedom From Religion Foundation and unveiled just a few days before the 2017 Scopes Trial Festival. The placement of the statue met some strong local opposition as an attempt by secularists to blur or remove symbols of Judeo-Christian heritage.\nThe Scopes Trial Festival itself, held on the lawn of the courthouse, saw little of the opposition during the Saturday staging of \u201cFront Page News,\u201d a Christian-based musical inside the original historic courtroom.\nThe Rhea County Courthouse is open to the public and visitors can stand in the original courtroom and visit a well-done museum in the basement of the historic building.\nDayton is a typical court-house county seat located on Highway 30 and Highway 60 between Kingston and Chattanooga. It\u2019s about 90 minutes by highway from Knoxville and nearby attractions include Old Washington, the Watts Bar Dam, and the Trail of Tears monument and trail near Birchwood and Blythe\u2019s Ferry.\nYou can get more information by Googling Rhea County or The Scopes Trial or contacting (423) 775-1817 for the City of Dayton or (423) 775-0361 for the Chamber of Commerce.\nA Day Away: Darrow gets his space in Dayton added by design on July 31, 2017\nScopes Festival planned for Dayton\nSmall Claims Court in Tennessee",

        "raw_content": "Nancy \"Nan\" Goldin (born September 12, 1953) is an American photographer. She lives and works in New York City, Berlin, and Paris.\nGoldin was born in Washington, D.C., and grew up in the Boston suburb of Lexington, to middle-class Jewish parents. Goldin\u2019s father worked in broadcasting, and served as the chief economist for the Federal Communications Commission. After attending the nearby Lexington High School, she enrolled at the Satya Community School in Lincoln, where a teacher introduced her to the camera in 1968. Goldin was then fifteen years old. Her first solo show, held in Boston in 1973, was based on her photographic journeys among the city's gay and transsexual communities, to which she had been introduced by her friend David Armstrong. Goldin graduated from the School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston/Tufts University in 1977/1978, where she had worked mostly with Cibachrome prints.\nFollowing graduation, Goldin moved to New York City. She began documenting the post-punk new-wave music scene, along with the city's vibrant, post-Stonewall gay subculture of the late 1970s and early 1980s. She was drawn especially to the hard-drug subculture of the Bowery neighborhood; these photographs, taken between 1979 and 1986, form her famous work The Ballad of Sexual Dependency \u2014 a title taken from a song in Bertolt Brecht's Threepenny Opera. Published with help from Marvin Heiferman, Mark Holborn, and Suzanne Fletcher, these snapshot aesthetic images depict drug use, violent, aggressive couples and autobiographical moments. In her forward to the book she describes it as a \u201cdiary [she] lets people read\u201d of people she referred to as her \u201ctribe\u201d. The photographs show a transition through Goldin\u2019s travels and her life. Most of her Ballad subjects were dead by the 1990s, lost either to drug overdose or AIDS; this tally included close friends and often-photographed subjects Greer Lankton and Cookie Mueller. In 2003, The New York Times nodded to the work's impact, explaining Goldin had \"forged a genre, with photography as influential as any in the last twenty years.\" In addition to Ballad, she combined her Bowery pictures in two other series: I'll Be Your Mirror (from a song on The Velvet Underground's The Velvet Underground & Nico album) and All By Myself.\nGoldin's work is most often presented in the form of a slideshow, and has been shown at film festivals; her most famous being a 45 minute show in which 800 pictures are displayed. The main themes of her early pictures are love, gender, domesticity, and sexuality; these frames are usually shot with available light. She has affectionately documented women looking in mirrors, girls in bathrooms and barrooms, drag queens, sexual acts, and the culture of obsession and dependency. The images are viewed like a private journal made public. In the book Auto-Focus, her photographs are described as a way to \u201clearn the stories and intimate details of those closest to her\u201d. It speaks of her uncompromising manner and style when photographing acts such as drug use, sex, violence, arguments, and traveling. It references one of Goldin\u2019s famous photographs 'Nan One Month After Being Battered, 1984' as an iconic image which she uses to reclaim her identity and her life.\nThe Devil\u2019s Playground is one of Goldin\u2019s most famous published works, including her most modern images from her series Elements, 57 Days, Still on Earth, and From Here to Maternity.\nIn 2002, her hand was injured in a fall, and she currently retains less ability to turn it than in the past.\nIn 2006, her exhibition, Chasing a Ghost, opened in New York. It was the first installation by her to include moving pictures, a fully narrative score, and voiceover, and included the three-screen slide and video presentation Sisters, Saints, & Sybils which has been described as disturbing. The work involved her sister Barbara's suicide and how she coped through production of numerous images and narratives. Her works are developing more and more into cinemaesque features, exemplifying her gravitation towards working with films.\nAustralian label Scanlan & Theodore commissioned Goldin with its spring/summer 2010 campaign, shot with model Erin Wasson in upstate New York. Commissioned by Italian luxury label Bottega Veneta, she photographed models Sean O'Pry and Anya Kazakova for the brand\u2019s spring/summer 2010 campaign, evoking memories of her Ballad of Sexual Dependency. In 2011, Goldin made an advertising campaign with model Linda Vojtova for luxury shoemaker Jimmy Choo. In 2013, she photographed an advertising campaign for Dior titled 1000 LIVES, featuring Robert Pattinson.\nSome critics have accused her of making heroin-use appear glamorous, and of pioneering a grunge style that later became popularized by youth fashion magazines such as The Face and I-D. However, in a 2002 interview with The Observer, Goldin herself called the use of \"heroin chic\" to sell clothes and perfumes \"reprehensible and evil.\"\nAn exhibition of Goldin's work was censored in Brazil, two months before opening, due to its sexually explicit nature. The main reason was the photographs containing sexual acts next to children. In Brazil, there is a law that prohibits the image of minors associated with pornography. The sponsor of the exhibition, a cellphone company, claimed to be unaware of the content of Goldin's work and that there was a conflict between the work and its educational project. The curator of the Rio de Janeiro Museum of Modern Art changed the schedule in order to accommodate, in February 2012, the Goldin exhibition in Brazil.\nLibell\u00e9s : AIDS, artist, conceptual, drugs, Fr\u00e9d\u00e9ric Kroutchev, homosexuality, installation, intimacy, love, lovers, Master, Nan Goldin, nude, personal, photographer, portrait, self portrait, sexuality, violence\nSarah O'Connor October 29, 2014 at 12:47 PM\nFrederic Kroutchev October 30, 2014 at 3:17 PM\nThanks Thanks Thanks...",

        "raw_content": "Nicholas Nixon (b.1947) is a Master American photographer\nNicholas Nixon (born 1947 in Detroit, Michigan) is known for the ease and intimacy of his black and white large format photography. Nixon has photographed porch life in the rural south, schools in and around Boston, cityscapes, sick and dying people, the intimacy of couples, and the ongoing annual portrait of his wife, Bebe, and her three sisters (which he began in 1975).\nRecording his subjects close and with meticulous detail facilitates the connection between the viewer and the subject. Nixon has been awarded three National Endowment for the Arts Fellowships and two Guggenheim Fellowships. In 2005 Nixon had a solo exhibition at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. and the Cincinnati Art Museum. In 2006, Nixon\u2019s ongoing portrait of the Brown sisters was exhibited at the Museum of Modern Art, New York and the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth, Texas. In 2010, the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston exhibited Nicholas Nixon: Family Album, through May 2011. In Summer 2013 Nixon\u2019s book Close Far was released by Steidl. The body of work explores the relationship of the self in physical and psychological proximity to the urban landscape. Nixon\u2019s work is included in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Museum of Modern Art, New York, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art and the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, among many others.\nAbout the The Brown Sisters's serie :\nNicholas Nixon was visiting his wife\u2019s family when, \u201con a whim,\u201d he said, he asked her and her three sisters if he could take their picture. It was summer 1975, and a black-and-white photograph of four young women \u2014 elbows casually attenuated, in summer shirts and pants, standing pale and luminous against a velvety background of trees and lawn \u2014 was the result. A year later, at the graduation of one of the sisters, while readying a shot of them, he suggested they line up in the same order. After he saw the image, he asked them if they might do it every year. \u201cThey seemed O.K. with it,\u201d he said; thus began a project that has spanned almost his whole career. The series, which has been shown around the world over the past four decades, will be on view at the Museum of Modern Art, coinciding with the museum\u2019s publication of the book \u201cThe Brown Sisters: Forty Years\u201d in November.\nWho are these sisters? We\u2019re never told (though we know their names: from left, Heather, Mimi, Bebe and Laurie; Bebe, of the penetrating gaze, is Nixon\u2019s wife). The human impulse is to look for clues, but soon we dispense with our anthropological scrutiny \u2014 Irish? Yankee, quite likely, with their decidedly glamour-neutral attitudes \u2014 and our curiosity becomes piqued instead by their undaunted stares. All four sisters almost always look directly at the camera, as if to make contact, even if their gazes are guarded or restrained.\nhttp://fraenkelgallery.com/artists/nicholas-nixon\nLibell\u00e9s : black and white photography, childhood, documentary photographer, family, humanist photography, illness, intimacy, lovers, Master, Nicholas Nixon, old people, photographer, portrait, self portrait",

It is the oldest covered market in the world, and massive in proportion. The Blue Mosque and the Hagia Sofia (Ayasofya) Mosque are must-sees when visiting Istanbul. The Hagia Sofia Mosque was a church during Byzantine rule, and was later converted into a mosque when the Ottoman Empire conquered the city. Researchers are continuing to uncover paintings and relics from the old church hidden under the mosque\u2019s walls. As with any other large city though, Istanbul can be expensive especially for tourists. Backpackers on a budget have many other options and cities to travel to elsewhere in Turkey.\nVan is located in the eastern part of the country on the eastern shore of Lake Van. One of the most popular destinations in Van is Akdamar Island, one of four islands located in Lake Van. The island boasts Akdamar Church, a historic Armenian church.\nIf Van seems to be too far east for you, Ankara and Cappadocia are located in the central part of the country and have a lot to offer travelers. Ankara is the capital of Turkey and often overlooked in comparison to Istanbul. Ankara is not typically considered a tourist town, as it has two main sites (Anitkabir and Atakule). You will interact with, and feel more like a local in Ankara than you would on the bustling streets of Istanbul.\nLocated about 3.5 hours from Ankara, Cappadocia is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a popular tourist destination. Cappadocia consists of rock formations entirely formed by natural erosions from water, and volcanic lava, as well as evidence of entire underground towns and homes built into the rocks dating back centuries. There are several hotels located conveniently in the rock dwellings of Cappadocia, and they offer relatively inexpensive accommodations outside of the peak tourist months.",

        "raw_content": "Law in England and Wales legal definition of Law in England and Wales\nhttps://legal-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/Law+in+England+and+Wales\n(redirected from Law in England and Wales)\nThe system of law that has developed in England from approximately 1066 to the present.\nThe body of English law includes legislation, Common Law, and a host of other legal norms established by Parliament, the Crown, and the judiciary. It is the fountain from which flowed nearly every facet of U.S. law during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.\nMany of the concepts embodied in the U.S. Constitution\u2014such as the separation and delegation of powers between three branches of government and the creation of an elective national assembly representing the will of the people\u2014trace their roots to English law. Fundamental legal procedures applied in the U.S. civil and criminal justice systems also originated in England. The jury system, for example, slowly matured into its modern form over several hundred years of English history. The antecedents of many substantive areas of U.S. law, including the ubiquitous system of state and federal taxation, may be found in English history as well.\nThe story of English Constitutional Law prior to the American Revolution, which is inextricably intertwined with the development of English law as a whole during this period, can be told in three parts: the centralization of power in the monarchy, the creation of Parliament as a limitation on the absolute power asserted by the monarchy, and the struggle for supremacy between Parliament and the monarchy. In large part, the American Revolution resulted from Parliament's failure to check the monarchy's sovereignty and establish itself as the supreme lawmaking body representing the people of England and its colonies.\nWhen William, duke of Normandy, also known as William the Conqueror, vanquished England in 1066, there was no English law as the Americans of 1776 came to know it. No national or federal legal machinery had yet been contemplated. Law was a loose collection of decentralized customs, traditions, and rules followed by the Anglians and Saxons, among others. Criminal cases were indistinguishable from civil cases, and both secular and spiritual disputes were resolved at the local level by community courts. Trials in the modern sense did not exist, nor did juries. Guilt and innocence were determined by compurgation and ordeal.\nCompurgation was a ritualistic procedure in which accused persons might clear themselves of an alleged wrongdoing by taking a sworn oath denying the claim made against them, and corroborating the denial by the sworn oaths of 12 other persons, usually neighbors or relatives. If an accused person failed to provide the requisite number of compurgators, he or she lost. The number of compurgators was the same as the number of jurors later impaneled to hear criminal cases under the common law. In the United States, the Sixth Amendment to the Constitution required that all criminal trials be prosecuted before 12 jurors\u2014until 1970, when the Supreme Court ruled that six-person juries were permissible (Williams v. Florida, 399 U.S. 78, 90 S. Ct. 1893, 26 L. Ed. 2d 446).\nTrial by ordeal was a superstitious procedure administered by clerics who subjected accused persons to physical torment in hopes of uncovering divine signs of guilt or innocence. The most common forms of ordeal involved boiling or freezing waters and hot irons. In the ordeal of freezing water, accused persons were thrown into a pool to see if they would sink or float. If they sank, the cleric believed they were innocent, because the water would presumably reject someone with an impure soul. Of course, persons who sank to the bottom and drowned during this ordeal were both exonerated of their alleged misbehavior, and dead.Battle was another form of primitive trial that was thought to involve divine intervention on behalf of the righteous party. The combatants were armed with long staffs and leather shields, and fought savagely until one party cried, \"Craven,\" or died.\nTrial by battle, though in many ways as barbaric as trial by ordeal, foreshadowed modern trials in several ways. The combatants fought in an adversarial arena before robed judges who presided over the battle. The accused person was required to put on a defense, quite literally in the physical sense, against an opponent who was trying to prove the veracity of his or her claims. Some parties to a battle, particularly women, children, and older individuals, were entitled to hire stronger, more able champions to fight on their behalf. This last practice sheds light on the more recent phrase hired guns, which is sometimes used to describe U.S. trial attorneys.\nDr. Bonham's Case\nDr. Bonham's Case, 8 Co. Rep. 114 (Court of Common Pleas [1610]), stands for the principle that legislation passed by the English Parliament is sub-ordinate to the common-law decisions made by trial and appellate court judges, and any statute that is contrary to \"common right and reason\" must be declared void (Thorne 1938).\nThe decision in this case, which was written by Sir Edward Coke sitting as chief justice for the Court of Common Pleas in England, spawned the concept of Judicial Review under which courts of law, as the primary oracles of the Common Law in the British and U.S. systems of justice, are authorized to invalidate laws enacted by the executive and legislative branches of government. The power of judicial review, which was first recognized by the U.S. Supreme Court in marbury v. madison, 5 U.S. (1 Cranch) 137, 2 L. Ed. 60, is invoked by courts every day across the United States but has since been rendered obsolete in England.\nBonham's Case arose from a dispute regarding the unlicensed practice of medicine. Dr. Thomas Bonham had received a degree in physic medicine from the University of Cambridge. In 1606, Bonham was discovered practicing such medicine in London without a license, and was summoned to appear before the censors at the London College of Physicians, who maintained jurisdiction in that city over the practice of medicine.\nBonham was examined by the college censors in a number of areas regarding his professional practice, and provided answers \"less aptly and insufficiently in the art of physic\" (Stoner 1992, 49). As a result, Bonham was determined unfit to practice medicine in this field, and was ordered to desist from such practice in London. When Bonham was later discovered flouting this order, he was arrested and placed in the custody of the censors.\nBonham refused to undergo further examination. As a graduate of Cambridge, he asserted that the London College of Physicians had no jurisdiction over him and thus possessed no authority to arrest or fine him. Promising to continue his practice of physic medicine if released, Bonham was immediately jailed.\nThe case came before the Court of Common Pleas when Bonham claimed that his continued detention by the college amounted to False Imprisonment. As a defense, the college relied on its statute of incorporation, which authorized it to regulate all physicians in London and to punish practitioners not licensed by the college. The statute also entitled the college to one-half of all the fines imposed by it.\nThe Honorable Justice Coke, also a Cambridge graduate, sided with his fellow alumnus. After singing the praises of their alma mater, Coke argued that because the college censors were entitled to receive a portion of the fine they imposed on Bonham, the statute made them prosecutor, plaintiff, and judge in the dispute: \"The censors cannot be judges, ministers and parties; judges \u2026 give sentence or judgment; ministers \u2026 make summons; and parties \u2026 have moiety [half] of the Forfeiture, because no person may be a judge in his own cause \u2026 and one cannot be judge and attorney for any of the parties.\" Coke suggested that the impartiality of a judge is compromised when the judge is also the plaintiff who will benefit financially from any fines imposed on the defendant, or the prosecutor who is the advocate responsible for seeking such fines. Although the parliamentary statute in question clearly contemplated that London College would wear all three of these hats, Coke observed,\n[I]t appears in our books, that in many cases, the common law will controul Acts of Parliament, and sometimes adjudge them to be utterly void: for when an Act of Parliament is against common right and reason, or repugnant, or impossible to be performed, the common law will controul it, and adjudge such Act to be void.\nCoke placed the judiciary in the middle of what was becoming a titanic struggle for power between Parliament and the ruler of England. Until the seventeenth century, the English monarchy enjoyed nearly absolute power over all political and legal matters that concerned the country as a whole. Despite the growing popularity and importance of Parliament during the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, the monarchy's autocratic power, which King James I (1603\u201325) asserted was divine in origin, included the prerogative to enact laws without parliamentary consent.\nBy the close of the seventeenth century, however, the pendulum of power had swung in favor of Parliament. The Glorious Revolution of 1688 subordinated the power of the English Crown and judiciary to parliamentary sovereignty. In 1765, English jurist Sir William Blackstone described \"the power of Parliament\" to make laws in England as \"absolute,\" \"despotic,\" and \"without control.\"\nThe American Revolution, which began eleven years after Blackstone's pronouncement of Parliament's unfettered power, was commenced in response to the coercive legislation passed in the colonies by what had become a despotic Parliament. Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, and their contemporaries believed that a legislative despot was no better than a monarchical despot. In 1787, the U.S. Constitution established the judiciary as a check on the legislative and executive branches of government, a check that was foreshadowed by Coke's opinion in Bonham's Case.\nJames I was cognizant of the dangers Bonham's Case presented to his claims of divine royal prerogative. The king understood that the \"common law,\" which Bonham's Case said controlled acts of Parliament, was really just a decision made by a court of law, or, more particularly, by a judge or panel of judges. James also understood that if the judiciary were allowed to assert the power to review acts of Parliament, it was only a short step away from passing judgment on actions taken by the Crown.\nAccordingly, King James removed Coke from the Court of Common Pleas in 1613, appointing him chief justice of the King's Bench. This constituted a promotion in name only, since Coke was now under closer scrutiny by the Crown.\nMuch to the Crown's chagrin, Coke's replacement on the Court of Common Pleas, Sir Henry Hobart, expanded the concept of judicial review intimated by Bonham's Case. In Day v. Savadge, Hob. 84 (K.B. 1614), Hobart declared that \"an act of parliament made against natural Equity, as to make a man judge in his own cause, is void in itself\" (as quoted in American General Insurance Co. v. FTC, 589 F.2d 462 [9th Cir. 1979]). Where did the new chief justice derive the court's power to invalidate the laws of Parliament? Hobart said, \"[B]y that liberty and authority that judges have over laws, especially \u2026 statute laws, according to reason and best convenience, to mould them to the truest and best use\" (Sheffield v. Ratcliff, Hob. (K.B. 1615), as quoted in Plucknett 1926, 50).\nExasperated by such further attempts to limit his prerogative, James I dismissed Coke from the King's Bench, and ordered him to \"correct\" his decision in Bonham's Case, which had subsequently been published in England's case law reporter known as The Reports. Coke refused to accede to the king's demands.\nThe importance of Coke's opinion in Bonham's Case is sometimes downplayed by some scholars who point to England's later recognition of Parliament as the country's supreme sovereign entity. However, this criticism overlooks the indelible imprint left by Bonham's Case on U.S. law.\nThe American colonists were intimately familiar with the writings of Lord Coke. Coke's Reports first came to America on the Mayflower, and the Massachusetts General Court ordered two complete sets from England in 1647. Coke's opinion in Bonham's Case was among his most popular writings.\nIn Paxton's Case of the Writ of Assistance, Quincy 51 (Mass. 1761), colonist James Otis challenged Massachusetts's authority to issue writs of assistance, general search warrants that empowered local sheriffs to enter private homes and businesses to seize smuggled goods. Otis told the colonial court that he objected to such writs, which were created by a parliamentary act in 1662, because they violated the principle of Bonham's Case: \"As to acts of parliament, an act against the Constitution is void. An act against natural equity is void; and if an act of parliament should be made in the very words of this petition, it would be void. The Executive Courts must pass such acts into disuse.\"\nJohn Adams, who was in the Boston courtroom where Otis made his argument for the colonial application of Bonham's Case, later exclaimed, \"Then and there the child Independence was born.\" Adams might also have exclaimed that the seeds of judicial review had been planted in the American colonies by Otis, who was unequivocally assigning to \"Executive Courts\" the responsibility of invalidating parliamentary legislation that violated constitutional precepts.\nFour years later, the colonies again relied on the principle of Bonham's Case, this time in their opposition to the Stamp Act, a parliamentary statute that taxed everything from newspapers to playing cards. Thomas Hutchinson, lieutenant governor of Massachusetts, encouraged the \"friends of liberty\" and opponents of the Stamp Act to \"take advantage of the Maxim they find in Lord Coke that an act of parliament against Magna Carta or the peculiar rights of Englishmen is ipso facto void.\"\nIn 1786, the Superior Court of Rhode Island relied on Bonham's Case to strike down a statute that denied the right to trial by jury for certain crimes, because \"Lord Coke\" held that such statutes were \"repugnant and impossible\" (Trevett v. Weeden [Newport Super. Ct. Judicature], as quoted in Plucknett 1926, 66).\nThe U.S. acceptance of the legal principles enunciated in Bonham's Case culminated in 1803 when the U.S. Supreme Court handed down its decision in Marbury, which established the power of judicial review by authorizing federal judges to invalidate unconstitutional laws enacted by the coordinate branches of government. Nowhere in Marbury does the Supreme Court cite Bonham's Case or expressly quote Lord Coke. But the influence of both Coke and his opinion cannot be missed.\nChief Justice John Marshall, writing for a unanimous Court, began his opinion in Marbury with two premises: the \"constitution controls any legislative act repugnant to it,\" and \"an act of the legislature repugnant to the constitution is void.\" Congress cannot be entrusted to determine the constitutionality of legislation passed by the House and Senate, Marshall implied, for the same reason the London College censors could not be allowed to judge their own cause.\n\"To what purpose are the powers [of Congress] limited\" by the federal Constitution, Marshall asked, \"if these limits may, at any time, be passed by those intended to be restrained?\" In a passage that harkens back to Chief Justice Hobart's opinion in Sheffield v. Ratcliff, Marshall concluded that only the judicial branch of government can be entrusted with such an overreaching power: \"It is emphatically the duty of the judicial department to say what the law is. Those who apply the rule to particular cases, must of necessity expound and interpret the rule. If two laws conflict with each other, the court must decide on the operation of each.\"\nAlthough Chief Justice Marshall's opinion in Marbury extended to the United States the principles of judicial review first intimated in Bonham's Case, judges, lawyers, and laypersons still debate the legitimacy of allowing unelected (appointed) judges to invalidate legislation enacted by representative institutions in a democratic country.\nEdwards, R.A. 1996. \"Bonham's Case: The Ghost in the Constitutional Machine.\" Denning Law Journal (annual): 63\u201390.\nWilliam the Conqueror understood the importance of revenue, and that is where he began building the English empire. In 1086, William initiated the Domesday Survey, which sought to determine the amount and value of property held in England, for the purpose of assessing taxes against the owners. The Domesday Survey was conducted by eight panels of royal commissioners who traveled to every county in the country, where they collected information through sworn inquests. Although the survey began as a method of recording real property held in the kingdom, one contemporary Saxon chronicler moaned \"that there was not a single hide \u2026 nor \u2026 ox, cow or swine\" omitted (Trevelyan 1982). The Court of Exchequer served as auditor, accountant, and tax collector for William, and provided a venue to settle disputes between the Crown and taxpayers, becoming the earliest department of state.\nWilliam's system for revenue collection began a process that gradually replaced the community courts of justice with a legal system that emanated from a central location, the king's castle in Westminster. One symbol of powerful centralized government in the United States is the Internal Revenue Service. For many U.S. citizens, paying taxes is a necessary evil. Taxes are necessary to keep the government, and its justice system, afloat. At the same time, they take away individuals' money.\nhenry ii (1154\u201389) further strengthened the central government by enlarging the power and jurisdiction of the royal system of justice. During his reign, any crime that breached the ruler's peace was tried before a royal court sitting in Westminster, or by royal itinerant justices who traveled to localities throughout England to hear disputes. Heretofore, the royal court heard only cases that directly threatened the monarch's physical or economic interests. Most other complaints, except for those heard by the Catholic Church, were leveled by private individuals, who were also responsible for proving their accusations. By increasing the sphere of what the government considered public wrongs, Henry II laid the groundwork for the modern U.S. criminal justice system, where attorneys for the federal, state, and local governments are invested with the authority to prosecute persons accused of criminal wrongdoing.Henry II also laid the groundwork for the common-law method of deciding cases, whereby judges make decisions in accordance with other decisions they have rendered in similar matters. The royal system of justice was governed by a single set of legal rules and principles, which was applied evenhandedly to litigants presenting claims to the monarch's justices. This system superseded one that applied the often inconsistent customary laws of neighboring communities of different ethnic backgrounds. Because the monarch's law was applied in a uniform manner, it became \"common\" to every shire in the land. This \"common-law\" system of adjudication was adopted by the American colonies and continues to be applied in nearly all of the 50 states of the Union.\nIn addition to becoming more prevalent, the royal system of justice was becoming more popular. Its popularity stemmed from the rational legal procedures and reliable modes of evidence developed by the King's Court, which slowly supplanted their superstitious, ritualistic, and dangerous predecessors, compurgation, ordeal, and battle. One new rational procedure was trial by jury, which Henry II made available in land disputes between laypersons and the clergy. The juries comprised 12 sworn men who possessed some knowledge of the property dispute, and were asked to announce a verdict to the royal justices based on this knowledge. The trial-by-jury system employed by Henry II, though only an embryonic form, reflected society's growing understanding that verdicts based on personal knowledge of a dispute were more reliable than verdicts based on ordeals of freezing water and contests of brawn and agility.\nHenry II also made the law more impersonal and less vindictive. In 1166, the Assize of Clarendon prohibited the prosecution of anyone who had not first been accused by a \"presenting jury\" of 12 to 16 men from the community in which the crime occurred. The presenting jury fore-shadowed the modern Grand Jury as an accusatory body that identified persons for prosecution but made no determination as to guilt or innocence. The presenting jury was seen as a more neutral and detached alternative to the system it replaced, which required the alleged victims, some of whom were waging a personal vendetta against the accused person, to identify alleged criminals for prosecution.\nThe writ de odio et atia provided additional safeguards for defendants wrongfully accused of criminal activity, by permitting the defendant to appeal legal issues to the King's Court in cases where the complainant was proceeding out of spite or hatred. This writ of appeal was an early precursor to the modern appellate system in the United States, which similarly permits parties to appeal legal issues they believe did not receive appropriate consideration at the trial level.\nThe presenting jury and writ of appeal underpin two beliefs that have been crucial to the development of the English and U.S. systems of justice. The first is the belief that a wrongfully accused person is no less a victim than is the target of civil or criminal malfeasance. The second is the belief that the legal system must provide an impartial forum for seeking the truth in disputed legal claims. These two beliefs paved the way for an assortment of procedural and evidentiary protections that have evolved to protect innocent persons from being unjustly convicted in criminal cases, and to keep prejudices from biasing judges and jurors in civil cases.\nHowever, the English monarchy did not centralize its power without cost. Frequently, English rulers abused their enlarged power to such an extent that they met with popular resistance. One of the earliest such confrontations occurred in 1215, and produced the first great charter of constitutional liberties, the Magna Charta. The Magna Charta can best be understood as a peace treaty between three rival jurisdictions of political and legal power: the Crown, the church, and the barons.\nIn the thirteenth century, the king's system of justice competed for influence with ecclesiastical and manorial courts. The ecclesiastical courts were run by the Catholic Church, with the pope presiding as the spiritual head in Rome. Manorial courts were run by barons, who were powerful men holding large parcels of land from the king, known as manors. Each baron, as lord of his manor, retained jurisdiction over most legal matters arising among his tenants, also called vassals, who agreed to work on the land in exchange for shelter and security. The jurisdictions of the Crown, the church, and the barons overlapped and each depended on the others for support.\nThe tyranny of King John (1199\u20131216) alienated the church and the barons, converting them into adversaries of the Crown. John was excommunicated by the pope, church services and sacraments were suspended in England, and the barons renounced homage to the Crown. Spearheaded by Stephen Langton, archbishop of Canterbury, the barons confronted King John on the battlefield at Runnymede, where they won recognition for certain fundamental liberties contained in the 63 clauses that make up the Magna Charta.\nThe Magna Charta granted the church freedom from royal interference except in a limited number of circumstances, establishing in nascent form the separation of church and state. The Great Charter required that all fines bear some relationship to the seriousness of the offense for which they were imposed, establishing the principle of proportionality between punishment and crime, which the U.S. Supreme Court still applies under the Cruel and Unusual Punishment Clause of the Eighth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.\nMost important the Magna Charta prohibited any \"free man\" from being \"imprisoned, or disseised, \u2026 or exiled, \u2026 except by the lawful judgment of his peers, or by the law of the land\" (ch. 39). The phrase \"law of the land\" was later equated with \"due process\" in the American colonies and received constitutional recognition in the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments to the U.S. Constitution. The Supreme Court has described due process as the \"most comprehensive of liberties\" guaranteed in the Constitution (rochin v. california, 342 U.S. 165, 72 S. Ct. 205, 96 L. Ed. 183 [1952]), and has relied on the due process clause of the Fourteenth Amendment to make most of the freedoms contained in the Bill of Rights applicable to the states.\nFifty years after Magna Charta, Parliament was created to serve as an additional check on the Arbitrary power of the monarchy. In 1265, Parliament was a very small body, consisting of two knights from each shire, two citizens from each city, and two burgesses from each borough. By the fourteenth century, Parliament was being summoned to advise the monarch, vote on financial matters, and supervise the excesses of local officials. Representatives for the barons, later known collectively as the House of Lords, wielded more power than did representatives for the commoners, later known collectively as the House of Commons, who were summoned merely to assent to royal will.\nIt was not long, however, before the Commons realized that its approval carried a measure of authority. In 1309, the Commons granted a subsidy to King Edward II (1307\u201327) on condition that he redress its grievances. During the reign of Edward III (1327\u201377), Parliament asserted three claims that would be echoed with minor variation in the American colonies: taxes assessed without approval from both houses of Parliament were void, legislation passed by only one house of Parliament lacked legal effect, and the Commons reserved the right to investigate and remedy any abuses by the royal administration. A century later, during the reign of Henry VIII (1509\u201347), the Commons asserted the power of the purse, arguing that all money bills must originate in its house.\nThese claims, although fairly innocuous when originally asserted by the Commons, were interpreted by subsequent Parliaments to mean that no one could rule without the consent of Parliament, and royal officials who abused their power, including the ruler, could be impeached and removed from office. When the English civil war known as the War of the Roses (1455\u201385) substantially depleted the ranks of the barons, the voice of the Commons grew louder as the representatives of the commoners were left to fend almost for themselves against a monarchical power that, culminating in the reign of James I (1603\u201325), claimed to be divine in origin and absolute in nature.\nThe struggles between Parliament and the crown for authority over England in the seventeenth century were a prelude to the struggles between Parliament and the colonists for control over the American colonies in the eighteenth century. The monarchy maintained that its power to govern England derived directly from God and thus overrode any earthly power, including that of Parliament and common law. Parliament, on the other hand, maintained that \"the people, under God, were the source of all just power, and that Parliament represented the people.\"\nParliament and the monarchy waged battle on three fronts: military, political, and legal. The military struggle for power began in 1642 when England again erupted into civil war. The political battles constituted a series of muscle-flexing exercises conducted by Parliament and the monarchy. The Commons impeached several of the king's top advisers and demanded redress of the grievances it summarized in the 1628 Petition of Right. The monarchy, in turn, dismissed Parliament on a number of occasions, and attempted to govern without requesting revenue from the Commons.\nThese political struggles came to a crescendo when King Charles I (1625\u201349) and Thomas Wentworth, the commander of the king's largest army, were tried, convicted, and executed for subverting Parliament and the Rule of Law. The indictment against the king reads much like the Declaration of Independence:\nWhereas it is notorious, That Charles Stuart, the now king of England, not content with those many encroachments which his predecessors had made upon the people in their rights and freedoms, hath had a wicked design totally to subvert the ancient and fundamental laws and liberties of this nation, and in their place to introduce an arbitrary and tyrannical government; and that besides all other evil ways and means to bring this design to pass, he hath prosecuted with fire and sword, levied and maintained a cruel war in the land against the parliament and kingdom, whereby the country hath been miserably wasted, the public treasure exhausted, trade decayed, thousands of people murdered, and infinite other mischiefs committed. During the sentencing phase of the trial, the president of the High Court of Justice instructed the king, in language that resonates through the U.S. Constitution, \"[T]he Law is your Superior,\" and the only thing superior to the law is the \"Parent or Author of Law, [which] is the people of England.\"\nIn 1689, Parliament achieved victory in its constitutional struggle with the monarchy when William and Mary (1689\u20131702) agreed to govern England as king and queen subject to a bill of rights. This English Bill of Rights, a forerunner to the U.S. Bill of Rights, which was submitted to Congress exactly one hundred years later, declares that the monarchy's \"pretended power of suspending of laws or the execution of laws by regal authority without consent of Parliament is illegal.\" It also guarantees the right of each English subject to \"petition the king\" for redress of grievances, and acknowledges Parliament's role in \"amending, strengthening, and preserving \u2026 the laws\" of the country.\nAlthough the English Bill of Rights ended England's seventeenth-century constitutional struggle between Parliament and the monarchy, America's eighteenth-century constitutional struggle with these two branches of government had not yet begun. By 1765, the pendulum of power had swung fully toward Parliament, prompting eminent English jurist Sir William Blackstone to write that \"[s]o long as the English constitution lasts \u2026 the power of Parliament\" is \"absolute,\" \"despotic,\" and \"without control.\" Because England had no written constitution that constrained the legislative power of Parliament, \"every act of Parliament was in a sense part of the [English] constitution, and all law \u2026 was thus constitutional.\"\nThe American colonists soon discovered that a legislative despot was just as tyrannical as a monarchical despot. The U.S. Constitution put an end to the notion of absolute power resting with any one sovereign, by separating the powers of government into three branches\u2014executive, legislative, and judicial\u2014and carefully delegating the powers of each. Although these safeguards against government-run-amok were the product of the violent American Revolution, they allowed for the tranquil and uneventful Integration of many ordinary English legal principles into the U.S. system of justice, including early Bankruptcy and Welfare laws during the nineteenth century.\nBailyn, Bernard. 1992.

The colonial settlers of North America were primarily from England, and until the 1760s they viewed themselves as English rather than \"American.\" They brought with them the English Common Law and the English constitutional tradition.\nUnlike the United States, England has never had a written constitution. Instead, the English constitutional tradition is based on the substance and procedures of the common law, along with key documents, such as Magna Charta and the English Bill of Rights. In the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, political philosophers, especially John Locke, challenged the absolute authority of the monarchy and introduced the democratic idea that the people have a right to a government that meets their needs. These documents and ideas assumed great importance as the American colonists moved toward independence in the 1770s. In this sense English ideas paved the way for the American Revolution and the writing of the U.S. Constitution.\n<a href=\"https://legal-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/Law+in+England+and+Wales\">English Law</a>\nactual grant presumed\naemulationem vicini\nBorough english\nFamily and succession law in England and Wales, 2d ed.\nFamily and succession law in England and Wales, 2d ed\nLaw in England and Wales\nLaw Firm Sales Executive\nLaw Firm Services Association\nLaw Focused Education Inc\nLaw for children\nLaw for the Attraction and Protection of Foreign Investment\nLaw for the Coordination of International Tax Affairs\nLaw for the Protection of German Blood and Honor\nLaw for the Protection of Persons Undergoing Biomedical Research\nLaw Governed Interaction\nLaw Hospital NHS Trust v Lord Advocate\nLaw in England\nLaw in literature\nLaw inforcer\nlaw is a ass\nlaw is an ass\nLaw John\nLaw Journal Extra\nLaw Journal Reports\nLaw Latin\nLaw Librarians Association of Wisconsin, Inc.\nLaw Librarians Society of Washington, D.C., Inc.\nLaw Libraries Association of Alabama\nLaw Library and Technology Center\nLaw Library Association of Greater New York\nLaw Library Association of Maryland",

        "raw_content": "Witty, ironic, meaningful, and delightfully entertaining, Green Book is quite possibly the best movie released in 2018.\nIt\u2019s based on the true story of African-American pianist Don Shirley (Mahershala Ali) and the unlikely friendship he developed with Tony Vallelonga (Viggo Mortensen), a Copacabana bouncer and self-proclaimed bullshitter. In fall 1962 Shirley hired Tony to be his driver and bodyguard during a concert tour through the South of the Don Shirley Trio, consisting of Shirley and two white string musicians. What follows is a new twist on the old buddy genre as two opposites, one black, suave, educated, and sophisticated and the other white, uncouth, ill-spoken, and street smart, learn to like each other. The two could not be more different, or more written against stereotype.\nShirley is an isolated individualist \u2014 certainly not defined by his race, but confined by Jim Crow nonetheless.\nThe name of the movie comes from a guidebook published by the Negro Tourists Bureau from the 1930s to the mid-1960s called The Negro Motorist Green Book. As you can guess, it identified restaurants, hotels, and public buildings that travelers of African descent could patronize. It was demeaning, and the Don Shirley Trio could make three times as much money doing gigs in New York, where they were more accepted and could move more freely. But, like Jackie Robinson before him, Don Shirley was out to make a point and blaze trails. He chose the southern circuit on purpose. Oleg (Dimiter D. Marinov), the bass player, understands. \u201cGenius is not enough,\u201d he explains to Tony. \u201cIt takes courage to change people\u2019s hearts.\u201d\nWe also realize that genius is not enough to bring happiness, any more than money is. Shirley is educated, talented, and rich, but he drinks alone. He knows the white European masters of music, but he doesn\u2019t recognize Little Richard, Aretha Franklin, or Sam Cooke. He is a gourmand, but has never tasted fried chicken. He isn\u2019t welcome in the hotel where his companions are staying, but when some men staying at the Green Book hotel invite him to join them for a game of horseshoes, he doesn\u2019t know what to do. \u201cIf I\u2019m not black enough, or white enough, or man enough, then tell me \u2014 what am I?\u201d he asks Tony in anguish. He is an isolated individualist \u2014 certainly not defined by his race, but confined by Jim Crow nonetheless.\nThe acting throughout the film is superb. Ali won a Golden Globe for his role as the regal, impeccable Shirley; his comedic timing for noncomic dialog is perfect, and wait till you see him play the piano! In fact, the music in this film is stunning. Mortensen packed on the pounds and embraced his inner slob to play the lovable, slovenly, totally unself-aware Tony Lip. Linda Cardellini as Tony\u2019s wife Dolores is so perfect that Nick Vallelonga, Tony\u2019s real-life son and the author of the book on which the screenplay is based, said that he was in tears whenever Cardellini was on camera, because she is so much like his mother. Cardellini is one of those quietly unsung actors who is marvelous in everything she chooses to do. In addition, many of the people in the family scenes are not actors but members of the Vallelonga extended family, and there is an authentic vibrancy as they interact with one another around the table.\nTony is an equal opportunity bigot; he warns Shirley to \u201cwatch out for them Krauts and Cuban bastards.\u201d\nUnfortunately, following the film\u2019s initial praise from critics when it opened and its three wins at the Golden Globes (for Best Screenplay, Best Supporting Actor, and Best Picture) the reputation of this fine film was maligned. Critics recently charged that it\u2019s \u201cracist\u201d and another \u201cwhite savior story.\u201d Either these people haven\u2019t seen the film, or they don\u2019t understand the \u201cwhite savior\" genre, or they\u2019re terrified to speak out against the progressivist hegemony.\nWell, I\u2019m not afraid to speak out. The person who is saved in this film is not the cultured, wealthy, talented black pianist, who hires the bodyguard, pays the bills, and calls the shots. It\u2019s the gauche, ignorant, uncouth, bigoted white restaurant bouncer who takes the job and the orders. And anyone who suggests that any film with a black star and a white star necessarily creates a hierarchy with the black man at the bottom is being, well, just plain racist.\nAt the beginning of the movie Tony is comfortable in his bigotry. He\u2019s a product of his environment, and his environment has been racist. He\u2019s an equal opportunity bigot, however; he warns Shirley to \u201cwatch out for them Krauts and Cuban bastards.\u201d Tony agrees to be Shirley\u2019s driver and manage his itinerary, but he flatly refuses to launder his employer\u2019s clothes or shine his shoes. He needs the money the job will provide, but he\u2019s a little embarrassed by the relationship; when someone questions him about it he responds, \u201cHe ain\u2019t my boss \u2014 I work for the record company!\u201d At his home, when two black repairmen finish a heavy job, Dolores gives them each a glass of water. Seeing this, Tony fishes the glasses out of the sink and drops them into the trash. He will not be putting his lips where black lips have been. Does this sound like someone with a \u201cwhite savior complex\u201d to you? I think it\u2019s no coincidence that during his concerts Shirley often plays a jazzy medley of songs from South Pacific, one of which bears the lyric, \u201cYou've got to be taught to be afraid / Of people whose eyes are oddly made, / And people whose skin is a diff'rent shade. / You've got to be carefully taught.\u201d This film shows that you can be untaught as well.\nAlthough Tony does rescue Shirley from a couple of beatings, which he is paid to do, Shirley rescues Tony from jail.\nThe reversal of stereotypes continues when the well-spoken Dr. Shirley offers to correct Tony\u2019s diction and make him more presentable in fine society, an ironic (and witty) race reversal. He even tries to change Tony\u2019s last name to Valley, \u201csomething more pronounceable,\u201d in an ironic nod to the emasculating and insidious practice of renaming slaves for the convenience of the owner when they were purchased. While Tony is the star of the movie, Shirley is the power of the relationship. He even owns a throne.\nIn every way, Dr. Don Shirley is superior to Tony. He is wealthier, more educated, more refined. He lives in a beautifully appointed apartment above Carnegie Hall and wears immaculately tailored suits, while Tony lives in a small apartment in the Bronx and wears ill-fitting bowling shirts. Although Tony does rescue Shirley from a couple of beatings, which he is paid to do, Shirley rescues Tony from jail. Tony is the protagonist on this journey, the one who changes, the one who is saved from his own bigotry to discover a friendship that would last until the end of his life. Not willing to share a glass with a black man? By the end of the film he is walking around in his undershorts and sleeping in the same room.\nNo, the real concern about this film \u2014 the true progressivist fear that\u2019s whitewashed by accusations of white saviorism \u2014 is that it does not fit the current narrative of blacks as victims who need saving. (Ironically, at the behest of our mostly white legislators.) The hypocrisy is so blatant it\u2019s maddening. Don Shirley\u2019s \u201csin\u201d is that he achieved success through hard work and talent \u2014 yes, by his bootstraps \u2014 and that he espoused a philosophy of peaceful resistance. \"You don\u2019t win with violence,\u201d he tells Tony. \u201cYou only win with dignity.\u201d Try touting that philosophy with activists today.\nTony is the protagonist on this journey, the one who changes, the one who is saved from his own bigotry to discover a friendship that would last until the end of his life.\nIn one particularly poignant scene, Shirley and Tony happen to stop near a field of black laborers to check something in the car. Camera filters intensify the lighting of the scene, mimicking the muted colors of a mid-century painting. No words are spoken, and none are necessary. The laborers stand in the fields picking cotton, dressed in headscarves and calico, while Shirley sits in the backseat of a Cadillac DeVille picking lint from his tailored suit with his soft manicured hands \u2014 for one reason: Shirley was given not only a talent for music but also a mother who could recognize it, nurture it and sell it. The key to his success is hinted at in the unsung lyrics of \u201cHappy Talk,\u201d also from the South Pacific medley: \u201cYou got to have a dream. / If you don\u2019t have a dream / How you gonna have a dream come true?\u201d Yes, Shirley, as well as the fieldworkers, faced racism and Jim Crow laws. Shirley had to live by the Green Book when he traveled, and he hated it. But he wasn\u2019t victimized by it. He had a dream, and he made it happen.\nIn sum, Don Shirley\u2019s story does not fit the political narrative of black suppression and victimhood that can only be righted through in-your-face activism and hatred toward whites. We are allowed to admire Black Panther as a strong leader and role model without disturbing the political narrative because he comes from Africa and has not been \u201ctainted\u201d by American sins. But we mustn\u2019t tolerate the example of strong African-American characters without the backdrop of white racism. Thus a central theme of Hidden Figures \u2014 a film about the remarkable black women mathematicians who worked in NASA\u2019s space program \u2014 deals with the women having to leave the building where they worked to use the colored bathrooms in a distant building, despite the fact that NASA already provided integrated bathrooms at that time. Talk about \u201cdemeaning.\u201d Hollywood put them in the colored stalls, not NASA.\nSimilarly, the story of Don Shirley\u2019s remarkable achievement must be sullied through unfair and untrue criticism of the powerful, witty, uplifting movie based on his life, simply because it doesn\u2019t fit the acceptable stereotype. Indeed, I was soundly criticized for praising this film. But I won\u2019t be cowed. And don\u2019t you be fooled: Green Book is quite possibly the best movie you\u2019ll see this year.\nEditor's Note: \"Green Book,\" directed by Peter Farrelly. Participant Media, 2018, 130 minutes.\nDr. Sam Johnson famously said that patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel.\nToday, though, that refuge is \"you're a racist!\"\nEverything today, thanks to the left-collectivist and demagogic orientation of the \"news\" media, is filtered through that \"racism!\" prism.\nNaturally a film about a self-reliant black man has to be sneered at.\nThank you, Jo Ann Skousen, for a sane and encouraging review.",

        "raw_content": "There is an interesting piece on the Association for Diplomatic Studies and Training that I have been meaning to share with you on The Palmer Case and the Changing Role of Women in the Foreign Service. It reads, in part:\n\"There have been a number of prominent women who have served in the State Department over the past century: Francis Willis, the first female career Foreign Service Officer to become ambassador; Clare Booth Luce, a political appointee as Ambassador to Italy; Constance Ray Harvey, who was awarded the Medal of Freedom for her work during World War II, not to mention the number of women who served recently as Secretaries of State. But the road to equal opportunity for women has often been a bumpy one. The unprecedented opportunities for women which opened up during WWII closed just as dramatically after the war as the Foreign Service returned to its previous hiring practices. It was very difficult in the postwar years for women to be hired by and promoted within the Foreign Service. From 1961 to 1971, recruitment of women remained at 7% and the rate of promotion was slow.\nSeveral incidents eventually forced the State Department to enact major changes. Several women in the late 1960s formed the Women\u2019s Action Organization (WAO), which worked closely with the American Foreign Service Association (AFSA), to push for abolishing the regulation that prevented women who married from entering or remaining in the Foreign Service.\nMore famous was the Alison Palmer case. Palmer had begun her career in the Foreign Service in 1959 specializing in African affairs. Several ambassadors had objected to her assignment to their embassies in Africa in the late 1960s, and during one assignment, she was expected to act as social secretary to the Ambassador\u2019s wife. She then started an internal grievance procedure through the Department\u2019s Equal Employment Office charging sex discrimination. In 1969 Palmer, then stationed in Vietnam, was notified that the EEO had found in her favor but refused to enter the report in her personnel file. In 1971, she then filed a sex discrimination lawsuit which she won three years later. Her victory resulted in an order from management barring all discrimination in assignments. In 1972, the State Department overturned its ban on the marriage of female diplomats. It also took steps to improve inequities in housing allowances and in the recruitment process, and issued the Declaration on Spouses, which removed wives from their husbands\u2019 performance evaluations.\nIn 1976 after numerous attempts at getting higher ranking positions as a Foreign Service Officer, Palmer then filed a class action lawsuit against the State Department for discrimination in violation of the 1964 Civil Rights Act. After several years of litigation, a 1989 court order found that the Department had discriminated against women in the written portion of the Foreign Service Officer Test. The State Department was then restricted in administering written exams that had adverse impacts on women. In 2010, Palmer (at left) decided to terminate the lawsuit as all parties agreed that the State Department had finally demonstrated compliance of the court orders by making reparations to women who were affected and modifying hiring systems.\"\nI have blogged previously about Palmer and this issue here.

        "raw_content": "The History of the Latin Language\nLatin, the language of science, at one time the lingua franca of the western world, a language shaped by culture and spread by conquest, is now considered a \"dead language.\" It is no longer spoken as a native tongue by any group or culture but is rather left to classicists who study the world of classical antiquity. The rise and spread of Latin has had a profound influence on the world that is still felt today in the form of the Romance Languages, and Latin terminology in medicine, law, and religion. Exploring its history reveals how and why it has had such an impact.\nLatin is a member of the Indo-European Language family. It is descended from the Italic branch and is considered to be one of the oldest branches of Indo-European after Greek and Sanskrit. The Italic branch broke off into two main branches: the Osco-Umbrian branch and the Latino-Falisco branch. These branches in turn yielded the Oscan and Umbrian Languages; and the Latin and Faliscan languages. From this point Latin experienced changes of development from its archaic form into a classical form, and later through medieval times, into various Romance languages.\nArchaic Latin\nLatin appears to originate from around the mouth of the Tiber river. It later spreads throughout the entire Mediterranean world of antiquity (Pei 3). Pre-Roman Italy was filled with predominantly Italic speakers with speakers of Umbrian to the north, and speakers of Oscan to the south, although Etruscan speakers, a non-Indo-European language, were also to the north (43-44). As Rome was founded and began to expand its influence over neighboring territories, Latin-speaking Romans borrowed extensively from neighboring languages:\nThese early borrowings, however, were homely words, indicative of an earthy, primitive civilization. Latin forms like asinus, \"donkey,\" and caseus, \"cheese,\" seem to be Oscan or Umbrian rather than Latin in origin, for Latin would have turned s between vowels into r (ausis, the word for \"ear,\" for instance, turned into auris). The appearance in many Italian words of a characteristic Oscan f where Latin has b between vowels (It. scarafaggio from Latin scarabeus, \"beetle\"; bifulco from bubulcus, \"ploughman\"; bufalo from bubalus, \"wild ox\") indicates that Oscan forms with f must have existed in the Vulgar Latin speech, even if unrecorded. (Pei 44-45).\nLatin changed with the expansion of Roman territory. The progression of the expansion of Latin was as follows: \"It first displaced the local dialects of the rest of Latium and those of the neighboring Sabines, Aequians, Marsians, Volscians, etc., later the Umbrian, Etruscan, Venetic, Celtic, etc., later still the Oscan, and last of all the Greek in the south. By 100 BC Italy was mainly of Latin Speech\u201d (Buck 26-27). This is significant in that it shows that early in its development, Latin borrowed and adapted terms from neighboring languages until it became the dominant tongue.\nThe oldest examples of the Latin language are preserved in the form of inscriptions. These inscriptions offer information about the economy, society, and language of the time. What was once believed to be the oldest Latin inscription on record was the Praenestine Fibula, a belt buckle dating back to the seventh century BC which was inscribed Manius med fhefhaked Numasioi, or \"Manius made me for Nummerius\u201d (Pei 45). However, some scholars now believe it \"to have been forged in collusion with learned scholars who conspired to pass it off as genuine\u201d (Bonfante 4). If this is a forgery, it would make the next oldest example of Archaic Latin an inscription on a cup, the Viminal Vessel, dated to the fifth century BC, which says: Duenos med feced en manom einom Duenoi ne med malo statod, \"Bonus made me against Manus, but let no harm come to Bonus through me\u201d (Pei 45). This could be a critical element in the development of the Latin language due to the two hundred year interlude between the Praenestine Fibula and the Viminal Vessel.\nTwo inscriptions from the third century BC show the transition between the Archaic and Pre-Classical Latin periods. The first comes from Spoleto, and reads: Sei quis scies violasit Jovei bovid piaclum datod \"If someone shall knowingly violate this, let him offer expiation to Jupiter with an ox\u201d (Pei 45). The other reads: Honc oino ploirume cosentiont r(omai) duonoro optumo fuise viro (or virorum?) Luciom Scipione \u201cMost people in Rome agree that Lucius Scipio was the best of good men\u201d (45). The parentheses represent possible reconstructions of part of the inscription.\nThese examples may also suggest after some analysis that the older [Archaic] Latin is \"still uncontaminated by higher cultural influences, and still fairly close to its Indo-European ancestry; therefore it is closer to other early-recorded Indo-European languages, such as Greek, than it would be at a later date\u201d (Pei 45-46). This is also beneficial in comparing possible sound changes and correspondences to both prior and later versions of language.\nThe case endings often duplicate those retained by Greek; the verbs show a reduplication in the perfect tense that is practically universal in Greek, but only occasional in Classical Latin; there are numerous diphthongs that survived in Greek, but turned into simple long vowels in later Latin (ei to i; and oi to u).(Pei 46).\nThe Roman Republic and The Roman Empire\nThe expansion of the Roman Republic and the rise of the Roman Empire signaled a time in which Latin thrived as a medium of communication stretching from Mesopotamia in Asia Minor down into Northern Africa over to Spain and Portugal and up into Great Britain. The Roman Empire reached its peak in 117 AD under the reign of Augustus Caesar. The expansion of Rome\u2019s influence was not primarily due to trade, but conquest. Richardson notes that \u201cit is clear that in empires such as that of Rome, economic interests, though always significant, were secondary to political and military interests\u201d (Richardson 4). This coincided with the rise of Christianity and the beginning of the Pax Romana, which lasted for nearly two hundred years, and thus further facilitated the spread and influence of Latin.\nClassical Latin became the common language brought throughout the Roman Republic and Empire by the Roman Legions and the Imperial communications. The Classical Period extended from around 100 BC to 400 AD (Pei 55). This language often times absorbed or influenced the native tongues of the area. This produced regional differences in pronunciations, usages, and idiolects. Ultimately it led to such a vast difference in verbal speech that Latin and its associated dialects became more and more distinct from each other.\nClassical Latin is marked by an increase in writing and written records beginning in the first century BC (Pei 48). During its early Classical Development, Latin borrowed extensively from the writing forms employed by the Greeks, inspired by the epics of Homer and the histories by Herodotus and Thucydides, and the tragic poets, as well as others. The Greek literary tradition included many forms of writing and so \u201cwhen the Romans began their literary apprenticeship, Greek literature had passed its zenith\u201d (Palmer 96-97).\nObvious differences between the writings contained in most records of Classical Latin compared to the writings of Plautus or the writings of Terence appear which may show a difference in the Latin language proper and the more common vernacular. The works of Sallust, Caesar, Cicero and others reflect a pristine form of Latin with careful attention to detail and grammatical structure. The writing style characterized by Plautus and Terence reflects a more base form of Latin. This is beneficial to modern students of Latin because it may more fully represent the spoken language of the time. The writings of Plautus and Terence are replete with colloquial speech \u201cwhich often makes detailed and explicit linguistic reference unnecessary and tedious,\u201d and shows \u201callusiveness, by deictic elements, abbreviation, ellipse, and aposiopeses,\u201d contamination from Greek and other local languages, double comparatives, frequent superlatives, popular rhetorical devices, and \u201cthe replacement of simple verbs by more expressive compounds\u201d (Palmer 74-76). The use of suffixes and diminutives show \u201ca whole range of emotional attitudes-endearment, playfulness, jocularity, familiarity, and contempt. A muliercola is not a little woman, but a \u2018bit of a hussy\u2019 and is generally used with reference to a courtesan\u201d (77). The \u201cClassical\u201d Latin texts do not generally reflect this level of common speech.\nLaw and religion tend to have a more elevated writing style which is distinguishable from colloquial speech (Palmer 118-119). In charting the growth of Latin, Palmer notes that \u201cthe ultimate source of any literary language is the spoken language in its various forms and modes,\u201d because this evolves into various writing styles (118). Thus, a high level of formality (and archaic language) may arise due to the nature of the writing, although this may also be interspersed with some colloquial usages.\nClassical Latin literature hit its high point during the Golden Age of Rome under Augustus. Characteristic of the Golden age are the Ciceronian-like oratories and the Vergilian-like epics in written records (Palmer 140-141). This is believed by many to have been the height of the Latin language.\nVulgar Latin and the Carolingian Reforms\nAs Latin became used over larger and larger areas, regional differences in pronunciation and usage became more common. The increase in rustic and common usage of Latin contributed to its change. Often the usage of language \u201cis a mode of social behaviour\u201d and spreads through popular usage (Palmer 148). This led to what became known as \u201cVulgar Latin.\u201d The Vulgar Latin was influenced by local languages and eventually developed into the Romance languages (Buck 28). Interestingly, the written text of Latin appears to have been understood and used with various of the Romance Languages, though pronunciation differed greatly enough to suggest new languages emerging:\nIf we take mutual intelligibility of verbal messages to be a basic criterion of language identity, then the decisive linguistic gap between the language of a Latin text and the spoken usage of the population manifested itself some time between 620-630 and the middle of the 8th century, or soon thereafter. (Herman 372).\nApproaching the disintegration of Latin as the unified spoken language among the masses, \u201cit can be supposed that by 760-770 at the latest, the population at large was already unable to understand, without special help and explanation, a Latin text as simple as the Lord\u2019s Prayer\u201d (Herman 372). There is the possibility also that even early in the seventh century, \u201cin the worst of cases, Isidore remarks, those pedants may even pretend not to understand what is being said\u201d (Walsh 204). Social distinction becomes a factor in the \u201cpurity of language\u201d showing a growing division between the Classical Latin and the vernacular in Rome.\nThe Christian tradition of Latin \u201cis even more the language of translation from Greek\u201d and from its earliest usage was inspired by the Greek converts to Christianity. Many of the first converts were the \u201cpoor and lowly,\u201d and thus,\nthe missionaries who first preached the Gospel in the Latin West like the prophets of old spoke to their hearers in the language of the people. . . . To bring hope and comfort, to banish evil and dispel darkness, the missionaries used the homely speech of everyday life. (Palmer 185-187).\nThus, even from the beginning the Christian Latin diverged from the more pristine forms of Classical Latin and contributed to the spread of Vulgar Latin, ultimately leading to distinct languages. The clergy periodically attmepted to make the Christian Latin more uniform in pronunciation and usage which required training the clergy clear up through medieval times. Ultimately, even this was not enough to prevent the linguistic diversity from separating the Latin from the vulgar languages that emerged.\nDuring the Carolingian Renaissance, Charlemagne, an illiterate king from France, but with great influence, sought to revive Latin in its Classical form with special attention given to the pronunciation of Latin (Radice 9-10). He was fluent in spoken Latin and understood some Greek, and enjoyed the Classical forms of art, architecture, and language. He had a school set up by an Englishman, Alcuin of York, in which to teach and promote the rebirth of Latin (10). Yet despite the reforms he initiated to revive these things, it was short lived. Latin continued mainly as a vehicle for religion and religious reforms, law, and medicine.\nConcerning the retention of sounds and pronunciation, Wright argues that the forms used in law are pronounced in the Latin vernacular. Walsh posits, \u201cIf, as W. hints, a Lawyers\u2019 knowledge of Latin was confined chiefly to frequently occurring formulaic phrases, then he may be justified in assuming that they pronounced Latin in vernacular fashion\u201d (Walsh 203). This could be very significant due to its repetition and its use even today. This could be one of the few forms in which original Latin pronunciation is maintained.\nThe Latin language became distinct at this time from other \u201cdaughter\u201d languages which were once mutually intelligible with Latin. Most linguistic historians concur that Latin ceased being spoken as a native tongue in the 8th-c. AD (Herman 374-375). It is summarized well that:\nDuring the last decades of the 7th century and, roughly, the first half or first two-thirds of the 8th, as a result of intralinguistic processes, especially certain phonetic changes that occurred in the spoken language of Frankish Gaul, [and keeping in mind Charlemagne\u2019s efforts], it became impossible for the illiterate or minimally literate Romanized inhabitants of the country, . . . to understand without assistance the oral recitation of written, i.e., Latin, texts. (Herman 377).\nThus, Latin gave way to its daughter languages and was relegated to being the language of science, law, and learning for the next few centuries.\nAccording to Pei Latin was displaced gradually in spoken form between 400-700 (78). Changes in pitch, vowel quality, loss of distinction, and unstressed vowels being shortened, \u201care the main indications we have of the initial process of change that leads gradually from a Latin to a Romance vowel structure\u201d (78-79). Latin broke off into the Romance languages: Spanish, Portuguese, Catalan, ProvenV al, French, Italian, Rheto-Romance, and Rumanian. Spanish originated in the Cantabrians region in Eastern Spain following a Latinization of the area after the Second Punic War in 201 BC (Elcock 173). During the first century BC, Cicero stated that people in this area were using verba non trita Romae, or \u201cwords not current in Rome\u201d (Pei 50). The first unmistakably Spanish document appeared during the mid tenth century in the form of glosses in a devotional book \u201ccomposed in rather poor Latin\u201d in a monastery in San Millan (95). The first Portuguese writing sample is from an act of partition in 1192 AD (Elcock 428-429). Catalan was the chancery language of the Kingdom of Aragon and \u201cModern Catolinia has its origins in the Marca Hispanica established by Charlemagne and Louis the Pious in order block the route of Muslim invasion\u201d (436). ProvenV al began ofter 260 AD after the Romans were driven back by the Alamans, thus marking \u201c a beginning of the isolation of Vulgar Latin in Gaul from more easterly developments\u201d (214). The first extant manuscript is the Boecis, which is from \u201cno later than AD 1000\u201d (372). French appeared \u201cas a literary medium before the end of the ninth century\u201d (Pei 93). Italian\u2019s \u201cfirst definite appearance is 960, continuing into the eleventh century, but only for notorial, devotional, and inscriptional purposes, blossoming forth as a literary tongue only in the twelfth\u201d (93-94) (see also Elcock 448). Rheto-Romance originated in the areas which correspond to modern day Switzerland, Bavaria, and Austria (478). Latin was spoken there until 487 AD when \u201cthe whole population moved southwards\u201d following Odovacar\u2019s usurpation of power (478). Rumanian appeared in written form late in the sixteenth century \u201cin texts of a purely religious character\u201d (271).\nLatin Today\nLatin is still seen in the form of inscriptions, medical taxonomy, legal jargon, and some religious settings. Indeed, Latin is still used in some religious activities and \u201cin some countries of Central Europe it was in official use up to the first decades of the 19th century [as] the language of research and philosophy in Europe,\u201d although Latin was not the native tongue for any group of people during this time (Herman 364).\nThus, the history of the Latin language is long and diverse. The daughter Romance languages which descend to us today are proof of its legacy.

        "title": "Literary R&R: {2014 TBR Pile Challenge Review} Juliet, Naked by Nick Hornby",
        "raw_content": "{2014 TBR Pile Challenge Review} Juliet, Naked by Nick Hornby\nCopyright: September 7, 2010 (Reprint)\nNick Hornby returns to his roots-music and messy relationships-in this funny and touching new novel which thoughtfully and sympathetically looks at how lives can be wasted but how they are never beyond redemption. Annie lives in a dull town on England's bleak east coast and is in a relationship with Duncan which mirrors the place; Tucker was once a brilliant songwriter and performer, who's gone into seclusion in rural America-or at least that's what his fans think. Duncan is obsessed with Tucker's work, to the point of derangement, and when Annie dares to go public on her dislike of his latest album, there are quite unexpected, life-changing consequences for all three.\nNick Hornby uses this intriguing canvas to explore why it is we so often let the early promise of relationships, ambition and indeed life evaporate. And he comes to some surprisingly optimistic conclusions about the struggle to live up to one's promise.\nI had it in my 2013 Challenge list. However, due to other books taking priority, and maybe due to the fact that this one didn\u2019t really grab me as much as some of my other 2013 titles (11/22/63, anyone?), I never got around to reading it.\nEven this year, I started it early in the year and it took me four months to get through it. I usually have a book like this \u2013 one where I start, lose interest, then start reading other stuff. I\u2019ve had about two months\u2019 worth of library reads, so this one, which I own, was bumped down the list to accommodate my library books.\nSo, what can I say about this book? Juliet, Naked refers not to an unclothed woman, as maybe some male readers might hope. ;) Rather, it is the title of a new album by reclusive American singer/songwriter Tucker Crowe, who had a big hit back in the day and then faded into obscurity, except for his small but passionate fan base. One such fan is Duncan, an Englishman who is part of an obsessive fan base that speculates on the current whereabouts and lifestyle of Crowe. He goes so far as to take his girlfriend, Annie, who is a reluctant Crowe fan by association, to America to do a tour of some of the famous places Crowe either recorded at, or played live at. Duncan even visits the home of the titular Juliet (Julie), who isn\u2019t home at the time, but it doesn\u2019t matter to Duncan. This is a Mecca-like experience for him.\nAnnie isn\u2019t nearly as feverish about Crowe, but learns to like the obscure artist\u2019s music through Duncan. When Naked is released after 20 years of no new music, it sets his fan base into a frenzy. Duncan, having obtained a copy before some of the others, writes a very high-falutin\u2019 review on the fan site. Annie, who has reached her breaking point with Duncan, is inspired to write a review basically saying the album is crap. Lo and behold, Crowe reads her review and contacts her via e-mail. Thus begins an intercontinental flirtation between Annie and the musician.\nThat is a synopsis of some of the action of the novel. Hornby depicts Crowe as having some of the stereotypical characteristics one would expect from a rock musician \u2013 namely, several ex-wives and children with each of them; recovering from alchoholism; but other than that, he leads a normal and rather boring life. Annie, whose life is also normal and rather boring, can\u2019t fathom what Crowe is even doing talking to her. It\u2019s not only a clash of lifestyles but of continents. That there\u2019s any kind of common thread is surprising to both of them.\nThis book examines life from the perspective of Annie, Duncan and Tucker at times, and explores the dynamics of relationships of convenience, of trying to heal broken family ties, and of what happens to your perception when your idol turns out to be a pretty ordinary guy.\nFor a Nick Hornby book, I\u2019d say this was just ok. I was expecting it to be more than it was. If I were to say yay or nay on this one, I\u2019d probably say nay. Pick something else by Hornby, like High Fidelity or About a Boy. Or better yet, rent those movies. :)",

The inspectors found that Roche had not properly analyzed the accounts of possible side effects to see if they were truly suspected adverse events that needed to be officially reported.\nThe reports included many different types of drugs, including cancer drugs, and were collected in a U.S. patient program that helps people deal with health insurance issues.\nThose reports included 15,000 deaths, although a European Medicines Agency spokeswoman said there was no evidence the deaths were linked to Roche medicines, or that patients are at risk.\nAccording to Medical Xpress, drug agencies regularly track side effects of drugs on the market. That\u2019s because rare adverse events might not have been picked up during clinical trials, in which only limited numbers of people are exposed to the medicines.\nThe EMA has ordered Roche to submit a detailed plan on how they will evaluate and report all outstanding cases, including how such problems will be corrected in the future.\nhttp://medicalxpress.com/news/2012-06-medicine-agency-roche-side-effects.html\nTags: drug maker, European Medicines Agency, Roche AG",

Don't be arrogant to him when he's cast out. And don't look for him in the garbage dump and don't leave him cast out. Find him in the waste and in wealth.

        "raw_content": "MAGIS Pilgrims Embark on Ignatian Experiments in Poland, Czech Republic, Slovakia and Lithuania\nJuly 17, 2016 \u2014 After a frenzied three days of singing, dancing, prayer and new friends, pilgrims attending the international immersion experience MAGIS have brought the first stage of the program in \u0141\u00f3d\u017a, Poland, to an end. But the bulk of what they came for \u2014 the service, intercultural dialogue and deep introspection \u2014 will continue as they now embark on \u201cIgnatian experiments\u201d across Poland, the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Lithuania.\nThese \u201cIgnatian experiments\u201d consist of activities loosely based on the life experiences of St. Ignatius of Loyola, founder of the Jesuits. After a morning prayer, breakfast and sending-off Mass in the outdoor stadium at the University of \u0141\u00f3d\u017a where all 2,200 pilgrims had gathered, participants were split up into 97 different experiment groups to travel by bus or train. They will next regroup in Cz\u0119stochowa, Poland, for a pilgrimage to the shrine of the Black Madonna, Our Lady at Cz\u0119stochowa, and to share with each other the stories of their experiences.\nThe experiments were designed with the theme of this year\u2019s MAGIS program in mind, \u201cTo give and not count the cost\u201d (a line from St. Ignatius\u2019 prayer for generosity). During the registration process, participants were asked to choose among several major experiment categories.\n\u201cBy going into different and little-known situations, Ignatius teaches us how to look at God, ourselves and others\nin a new way,\u201d says Polish Jesuit Marek Firlejczyk, coordinator of the Ignatian experiments for MAGIS 2016. The experiments are \u201cintended to give the participant an experience of living in community, working with others and reflecting on these experiences to help the participants to discover themselves.\u201d\nPilgrims who selected the pilgrimage option will embark on a four-day hike to various religious sites, and those who chose the service option will minister to others in cooperation with partners of the Society of Jesus and in care for the environment.\nAndrew Plaza, a student at the University of Scranton in Scranton, Pennsylvania, will be one such pilgrim hiking throughout the Bieszczady mountains in Poland near the border of Ukraine. \u201cWe\u2019ll be hiking on day trips. We have a base camp in a town called Ustrzyki Dolne, and from there we\u2019ll be hiking seven to nine hours per day and then going back,\u201d he said. \u201cBieszczady is a really nice place. I knew that I wanted to hike somewhere, see a little bit of the landscape of Poland. I\u2019m looking forward to having a lot of time to myself to think about things and exploring Poland.\u201d\nPatrick Veyret, a pilgrim from Australia, will be painting and restoring a museum in a rural Polish town. \u201cI\u2019m looking forward to meeting the other people in the group from different nationalities,\u201d he said. \u201cThere\u2019s people from Chile, France, America, Australia and India.\u201d\nHannah Joakim, a pilgrim from Kenya, will be doing a service experiment in Pozna\u0144, Poland. \u201cI am so excited with this experiment because when I look at the theme of MAGIS this year \u2014 to give and not to count the cost \u2014 I\u2019m really excited to help with the charity and work with the people in Pozna\u0144,\u201d she said.\nSpiritual category participants will explore deep prayer through different Christian traditions. The sociocultural category will focus on engagement and dialogue with diverse religious, cultural and social groups, and the artistic category will stimulate creativity through folk art, architecture, painting, iconography, acting, music, singing and other forms of expression.\nClaire Lucas, a pilgrim attending Seattle University in Seattle, Washington, has been assigned to reflect and work at a monastery in Warsaw. \u201cI\u2019m excited to see daily life in a religious order,\u201d Lucas said. \u201cI\u2019m also really excited because there\u2019s a couple days of silence planned. In this part of MAGIS in \u0141\u00f3d\u017a, there\u2019s been a lot of loud singing and praying and talking with one another, which is awesome but I\u2019m more excited for the reflective part of it. I hope for some communication with God within myself.\u201d\n\u201cI\u2019m going to Warsaw for a spirituality and leadership experiment, and the thing I\u2019m looking forward to most is to\nlearn about self-awareness and how to be a great leader,\u201d said Evalin Karijo, another pilgrim from Kenya.\nBella Tjok, from Indonesia, wished to combine spirituality and art. \u201cI hope during the experiment, through art and music, God grants me the grace to listen His voice and what He wants for my life, and that I have enough courage to follow His will,\u201d she said.\nRegardless of the experiment category, each pilgrim\u2019s day will be similarly structured with time for individual\nprayer, service, Mass, small group sharing, and an Ignatian daily examen, or personal reflection on the events of the day.

Do not copy or duplicate without the expressed written permission of marcelinocortes.com\nAlthough the below pictures show the registration form and draft card for 1942, Marcelino Cort\u00e9s had already served in the Army prior to that as a young man. You will notice that on the draft card, it states his date of birth and his age, 47 years old at the time. Although not fully researched, Marcelino Cort\u00e9s probably served with the Porto <?xml:namespace prefix = \"st1\" ns = \"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags\" />Rico Regiment, U.S. Infantry guarding the Panama Canal from 1917 to 1918. At the age of 22 or 23, at that time he would have been about the right age to serve. Without research, we are basing this on a prior article that was written about Marcelino Cort\u00e9s that states that he returned ill after serving in the Army with Uncle Sam. The Cort\u00e9s family has served in the U.S. Army for four generations since.\nMarcelino Cortes Home Page\nLa Genealog\u00eda de Puerto Rico (The Genealogy of <?xml:namespace prefix = \"st1\" ns = \"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags\" />Puerto Rico) webpage was written by Miguel J. Hernandez y Torres. It has a lot of good information on where to obtain copies of military records if you are researching your ancestry. I will be using a lot of their ideas as I continue to research this topic.\nIn my possession I also have the military records of Cristobal Cort\u00e9s, a second generation U.S. Army soldier that served in the 1st Platoon, 35th Coast Artillery Battalion. I will be posting these records up at a later date in conjunction with the Cristobal Cort\u00e9s\u2019 webpage. His enlistment was from 1943 until 1946. I myself served in the U.S. Army during the Persian Gulf War in the 1990\u2019s but I did not see action as I was stationed in Germany at the time. My sons, fourth generation soldiers, have both served in the U.S. Army; Marc Anthony Cort\u00e9s, now of Los Angeles, California served tours in Texas and Korea. My youngest son, Cristobal Cort\u00e9s II, is currently serving at Fort Riley, Kansas and has already served one tour in Iraq.\nTwo of my uncles also served in the <?xml:namespace prefix = \"st1\" ns = \"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags\" />U.S. Army at different times. My uncle, Antonio Custodio who was my Tia Dalila\u2019s husband served in Germany during World War II. My uncle, Wilfredo Perez, who is married to my Tia Lucy, served in the U.S. Army during the Korean War. In the future, I will try to obtain the family\u2019s permission to post their records on this website.",

The show examines the relationship between art and life, between the most colloquial and the most refined aspects, and constantly challenges the expectations of the viewer. On a bare stage a DJ plays pop songs from different epochs while professional dancers and people with no dance experience follow the instructions in the lyrics. The show must go on was part of the repertoire of the Deutsches Schauspielhaus in Hamburg from 2000 to 2005, and the repertoire of the Ballet de l\u2019Op\u00e9ra in Lyon from 2007 to 2014, among others.\nAfter working in various dance companies, J\u00e9r\u00f4me Bel began to present his own works, with simple movements and set designs, stripped of any kind of ornamentation. He is considered one of the most outstanding representatives of the non-dance movement. His shows have a conceptual character and the first one, Nom donn\u00e9 par l\u2019auteur, which consisted of interaction between dancers and commonplace objects, dates from 1994. This was followed by J\u00e9r\u00f4me Bel (1995), Shirtologie (1997), Le dernier spectacle (1998), The show must go on (2001), V\u00e9ronique Doisneau (2004), Lutz F\u00f6rster (2009), C\u00e9drix Andrieux (2009), which was staged at the Mercat last season, Disabled Theater (2012) and Cour d\u2019honneur (2013), among others.\nConception and staging J\u00e9r\u00f4me Bel\nMusic Leonard Bernstein, David Bowie, Nick Cave, Norman Gimbel and Charles Fox, J.

        "raw_content": "There are a number of amazing places to see and things to do and Kathy & I decided to do the trifecta by visiting the Shedd Aquarium, the Field Museum of Natural History and the Art Institute of Chicago. Each of these venerable and unique institutions are among the best in the world in their particular field and all are situated with-in a few blocks of each other in what is known as the Museum Campus.\nWe started at the Shedd Aquarium, a place that I have visited fairly often since I was a kid, but one that is ever growing and changing and today scarcely resembles the place that I first visited. First opened in 1930, the aquarium has grown with the times and continues to be among the elite aquarium facilities in the world.\nContaining over 25,000 fish, the aquarium remains one of the largest aquariums in the world and hosts amazing exhibits such as the current \u201cJellies\u201d exhibit that features a huge collection of different types of jellyfish. They also are home to a group of Beluga Whales and a number of sleek and fast Pacific Whitesided Dolphin, which are very different from the Bottlenosed variety found in most zoos and aquariums.\nThe Shedd maintains the classic feel of the institution opened in 1930, but has a number of modern state of the art exhibits including the incredible wild reef exhibit that is home to a large collection of sharks. They also have the world\u2019s largest collection of live coral reef, which is incredibly difficult to grow and is as impressive as anything I have ever seen in a captive setting.\nThe aquarium is located in a beautiful location along the shore of Lake Michigan and is home to many fascinating creatures including the oldest fish in captivity, Granddad, an Australian Lungfish that has been living at the facility since 1933 and seems to be going strong. We had an awesome visit to the aquarium.\nLocated just next door to the aquarium is another of the iconic museums of Chicago, The Field Museum of Natural History. The Field Museum is even more historic than the aquarium. Built in 1893 as part of the World Columbian Exhibition and known then as The Palace of Fine Arts, the building is the only surviving building of the famous \u201cWhite City\u201d that was built for the exhibition.\nRenamed the Field Museum in 1905 in honor of Marshall Field, the museum has been host to millions of visitors since opening. The museum collection is home to more than 21 million artifacts, only a fraction of which are on display at any one time. Today there are some amazing Natural History exhibits on display including \u201cSue\u201d the most complete Tyrannosaurus Rex skeleton ever discovered, a huge collection of dinosaurs and one of the largest collections of taxidermy anywhere.\nThe third member of our Chicago Trifecta is the equally incredible Art Institute of Chicago. This amazing museum is home to many of the great masterpieces that anyone with even a casual interest in art would recognize. Located in Grant Park, just northeast of the other two, the Art Institute is one of the leading art museums in the world.\nIt is home to what is recognized as the best collections of Impressionist and Post-Impressionist works in the world. Just as an example, they are home to six of the series of eighteen haystack paintings done by Monet- no other institution in the world has more than two. Also in the collection are important works by Renoir such as \u201cTwo Sisters (On the Terrace)\u201d and Henri Matisse's \u201cThe Bathers\u201d, Paul C\u00e9zanne's \u201cThe Basket of Apples\u201d, and \u201cMadame C\u00e9zanne in a Yellow Chair\u201d. Non-French paintings of the Impressionist and Post-Impressionist collection include VanGogh\u2019s \u201d Self-portrait, 1887\u201d. Among the most important works of the American collection are Grant Wood\u2019s \u201cAmerican Gothic\u201d, and Edward Hopper\u2019s \u201cNighthawks\u201d.\nThe museum is huge and we could not possibly cover all of it, but we caught the highlights and had an amazing time checking out works both familiar and unknown. Considering that the heat wave had temperatures outside in the high 90s and a heat index of 115, being inside fantastic iconic and air conditioned museums seemed like a perfect day in Chicago.",

        "raw_content": "Throughout my life I think I have self-medicated with music therapy. Music has helped me through the most difficult times, punctuated the most enjoyable moments and been a source of fun, relaxation and motivation. Music taps in to our emotional systems in a way that I don\u2019t really understand but is as powerful to me as any drug or alcohol induced state.\nSo it was in a way excellent timing that the weekend after what was an incredibly difficult stretch, which we had two very different live concert experiences to look forward to. I had gotten the tickets literally months in advance with of course no way of knowing what might be happening in my life when the concerts finally rolled around. It was a great break in what had been a sad few weeks and the first show was a nice little getaway up to Sunrise, just northwest of Miami.\nIn all my years of attending concerts, I had never had the chance to go see Paul Simon live in concert. I have never been a huge fan of Paul Simon, though I did really enjoy his early solo stuff in the 70s. I was actually a much bigger fan of Art Garfunkel, whose album \u201cBreakaway\u201d is still among my all-time favorites. After finally getting to see Garfunkel last year here in Key West, I was somewhat fearful that Paul Simon might be as awful as that show was, but I still wanted a chance to see a person who is quite a legend while I had the chance as Simon had billed this as his \u201cHomeward Bound\u201d farewell tour.\nI should not have worried as the 77 year old singer/songwriter delivered an amazing live performance that made me wish I had gone to many of his previous tours. Kathy and I drove up to Sunrise on Saturday morning and caught a movie, \u201cPeppermint\u201d starring Jennifer Garner as a revenge driven mother going after the drug cartel that murdered her family. The movie theater was right across from the BB& T center, home of the Florida Panthers hockey team where the concert was being held.\nWe had great seats in the fifth row for what turned out to be a pretty magical concert. There was no opening act and Paul Simon took the stage just after eight with his wonderful, international fourteen piece band backing him up. His voice was surprisingly strong and his energy level was fantastic and the band was just amazing. He played a long twenty-six song set that covered the breadth of his career including a good number of Simon and Garfunkel classics as well as all the hits from his solo career.\nIt was two and a half hours of just classic music that easily cemented Simon\u2019s place in the pantheon of great American songwriters and performers. Nothing too flashy, just the power of amazing music that was a great experience. The second concert of the weekend, the following night back in Key West at the relatively new concert venue, Sunset Green featuring 80\u2019s pop star Rick Springfield.\nIf I was not much of a Paul Simon fan, I was even less so of Rick Springfield, who I had always mostly passed off as a soap opera star turned musician who had a couple of radio hits in the 80s. Mostly I wanted to check out the new space, where we had not previously been for a show. I have to report that both the location and the concert far exceeded my expectations.\nI certainly underestimated Rick Springfield who performed a wonderful and fun ninety minute set that featured all of his hit songs as well as some excellent covers varying from Sammy Hagar to Katy Perry. He was really fantastic, a much more talented guitar player than I would have imagined and put on a very fun and personable show, including bounding throughout the crowd hugging people, taking selfies and getting crowd members to sing. It was a ton of fun and a perfect and needed cap to a feel good weekend of musical therapy.\nKathy and Rick Springfield",

        "raw_content": "Michael Dunn Sentenced to Life Without Parole Plus 90 Years\nThe man convicted of shooting dead a Florida teenager in a dispute over loud rap music has been given the maximum possible sentence of life in prison without parole plus 90 years.\nJudge Russell Healey sentenced software engineer Dunn, 47, to maximum prison terms on all counts: life without parole for the first-degree murder of Davis, three consecutive 30-year sentences for the attempted second-degree murder of the teenager\u2019s friends, who were in the car with him, and an additional 15 years for shooting into a moving vehicle.\n\u201cMr Dunn, your life is effectively over,\u201d Healey said. \u201cThis tragedy should and could have been prevented.\u201d\nAt his murder trial that ended on 1 October, Dunn admitted firing 10 shots into the youths\u2019 Dodge Durango during the altercation over loud music blaring from the SUV parked alongside his car. Even though he fired the final shots as the vehicle sped away, he claimed he was acting in self-defence because Davis, he said, had brandished a gun and moved to attack him after refusing to turn the volume down. Police found no weapon and witnesses said they never saw one.\nLabels: syg, syg mentality\nTell him he had a \"license to murder\".\nThis is one of the worst examples of someone trying to get away with murder by using the SYG defense. But you keep using it to pretend it doesn't happen.\nKeep punching those straw men, Mike. We don't claim that bad guys don't try to use it to get away with murder. Instead, we point to the text of the law and to the fact that it is not intended to let them get away with murder. Then we point to the fact that these attempts fail.\nMuch easier to fight against brainless arguments we're not making.\nHardly a \"license\" then.\nSOME of the attempts fail. Some succeed.\nThe same could be said about any self defense law, Mike. Or about the murder laws where some murderers are found not guilty because the jury isn't convinced of the evidence.\nThe fact that some of the guilty get away is of less concern in our system than our attempt to ensure that we don't wrongfully convict the innocent.\nThen it is not a license! You don\u2019t call it a license to drive if some of your attempts to drive get you arrested.\nIl Principe October 19, 2014 at 12:25 PM\nHe already looks like he is part of an Aryan white supremacist prison gang. Add a few tattoos to his face and neck and you have a picture of him in a few years.\nIt was amazing to watch the gun loons defend this killer\nPull your head out, Anon. This guy has consistently received round condemnation from the pro gun people here.\nBullshit, bullshitter.\nIt's a \"license to murder\" so long as you don't actually- you know, murder someone.\nTell that to the family of the Alzheimer's patient in Georgia who is now pushing up daisies. The shooter successfully claimed he was lethally afraid for his life and as improbable as it was, it worked. That's just one case that I remember.\nAnd how, exactly, did SYG make the difference in that case such that the shooter would have been found guilty without it?\nThat wasn't murder either. You think that was the shooter's plan?\nOf course it was his plan, what else was he doing pointing a gun at someone and pulling the trigger?\nSo, no answer on how SYG made the difference in that case?\nNo one said SYG made a difference in the case. What I say is the SYG mentality was strong in his brain prior to the shooting and may very well have made the difference by pushing him over the edge. How dare those punks play their music that loud. Someone should teach them a lesson. Someone's got to stand up to shit like this. Etc., etc.",

        "raw_content": "One of the many things I meant to write about while I was working on the Anonymous: The Diary Drawings series (see recent posts!) was the idea of glimpsing infinity. I know, of course, that infinity is a notion, a concept and not quite something that you catch a glimpse of, but still....the idea resurfaces each time I sit down to draw. The notion of glimpsing infinity lingers with me, so I will attempt to explain and see if the idea or the experience resonates with you.\nA drawing, or any artwork for that matter, is created through a series of decisions....sometimes split-second decisions, sometimes ones that involve more contemplation and thought. What occurs to me as I am working is that there are virtually unlimited possibilities from which to choose. Any mark that I make could be otherwise, its location could be otherwise on the page, which might be of a different material entirely. If you do a little thought experiment and multiply the many tools you might use to work with, by the surfaces there are on which to work, by the placement on the page, by the countless colors that could be employed, by the ideas in your head....well, it makes me dizzy!\nThe Book of a Layered Land\nThe idea that it's all been done before, that there is nothing new under the sun, doesn't quite hold water if you open yourself to all the endless possibilities before you. Multiply all those things above by all the different moments in time, by the various incarnations of the self that evolve over time....well, it really is endless. I can't buy into the notion that there is nothing new to say or any new ways to say something that's already been said time and again. The world is wide, the possibilities are infinite. There is always room for what you have to express, because each one of us embodies our own set of infinite possibilities. The marks and images that land on the page through the work of my hands are the expression of my experience....that's my calling...to make those marks. And your calling is to make those marks only you can make, through whatever means you have at your disposal....at any time and place in the sea of infinity.\nUntil next time....enjoy the possibilities!\nLabels: artist's books, beeswaxed drawings, folded books, Missouri Bend Studio, MissouriBendStudio, mixed media drawings, pamphlet books\ntm February 25, 2017 at 5:55 AM\nThank you so much for your inspiring thoughts. So is catching the movement, the movement in drawing, the second of taking a picture, the instant of feeling, is all this the aproval for infinity or is it the knowing of the \"next step\", whatever it might be?\nAnd is it all a question of daring to create...\"finally\" infinity? Out of the \"everything\" that has already been and the everything that will come an form itself as new...Thank you for this kind of exchange.Its very giving to me.Best greetings from Germany, Taija\nGreetings Taija! Thanks so much for your thoughts and kind words. You've posed some interesting questions. Just to respond quickly here, I might say, it's all of these things you mention. I think the notion of infinity is actually difficult to grasp, but what prompted me to write the post was the idea of being in the middle of the creative process...which for me, is drawing, and realizing that with any mark I make, out of my intuition or with more forethought, it is just one out of an infinite set of choices. As I mentioned, \"it could all be otherwise\". I find myself in a most humble place as I contemplate these things....the dizzying array of possibility can either paralyze us or set us free. I find that I feel free and in awe of the vastness. Thank you again for contributing to the exchange! Cheers to you in Germany!\nMy 2017 word is \"possibilities\". The most fun thing about it is intersecting with different people thought the year that find it an irresistible word, as well:)\ud83c\udf3b\ud83c\udf3bTo endless refusal of ignoring...possibilities! Laura\nHi Laura....I love the open-endedness of the word \"possibilities\". It is irresistible and energizing! Thanks for the reminder to focus on what is possible for the future! Cheers...and happy spring!",

You will find more success by focusing your energies on a particular market sector. Whether you\u2019re buying and selling homes, only working with starters, or starter homes, stick with what you are familiar with if you want to see success.\nDo not forget about other costs that increase the amount you have to spend on a property. You may have to pay closing costs, legal fees, and staging costs, and quite a few other things that can make your bottom line more. Consider all costs when you work on your margins.\nLocation is essential when investing in terms of successful real estate investing. Property condition and other factors do change. Properties in areas will always be bad investments. Always research on a property before investing any money.\nWhen you are buying property for investment, it is a smart idea to look for a good handyman. If you aren\u2019t familiar with things that need repairs, your positive cash flow could be spent on tons of expensive repairs. A good handyman is great for any tenant issues that might come up after hours.\nWhile it may seem like a great idea to diversify, it is wise to make some local investments. You know your area that are great investment opportunities. You should at least start out in your local community to find good deals.\nLocation is paramount when considering a big part of real estate purchase. Think about the area you are choosing to invest in and the possible potential.\nDon\u2019t buy a property just to increase the sake of owning more properties.

Don\u2019t let the lows persuade you to give it all up.\nNever invest more money that you can\u2019t afford. If you\u2019re renting, try to still meet the mortgage payments every month even if there are a couple empty units. It is not wise to place dependance on the rental income to cover the mortgage obligation.\nDo not let your emotions to get the best of you. Keep your emotions so you don\u2019t overpay. You will make more money by following this way.\nKnow that any real estate investment properties are unlikely to pay off for some time. Make certain you have money set aside to get you through this early stage. You need to have to be employed when you start investing.There are a few expenses that crop up when investing in and managing real estate. You could lose it all if your income stream isn\u2019t consistent and good.\nPrior to purchasing a rental property, know about the local real estate market. This will not be offsetting your expenses.\nTry buying in heavy foreclosure areas if you could afford to hold on to the house for awhile before reselling. Such areas are sure to experience a resurgence, so if you can buy at the bottom you stand to make some money in the future. Remember that it may take a while to get the money you invested back.\nThink about a loan that is non-recourse loans if you are going to partner with others while investing in real estate. This kind of loan offers you protection if the relationship goes bad or if he does not accept responsibility. This will give you more security with less risk than traditional partnerships.\nUntrustworthy people can damage your property. Background checks may not catch all problems, but they sure do eliminate a lot of them.\nDecide whether you want a long-term or short term purchase. This will affect the amount of funds required. If you are purchasing a home for yourself and plan to spend some time in it before selling it, you can space out the repairs and renovations.\nTo sum it up, many folks profit from real estate investing. However, knowledge is key when it comes to investing in the real estate market. Use these suggestions when you are ready to invest.",

        "raw_content": "I\u2019m pretty much done with Bioware now.\nThe news that Bioware won\u2019t be releasing single-player DLC for Mass Effect Andromeda doesn\u2019t make me angry; it just makes me tired of Bioware\u2019s [expletive deleted]. I am what you\u2019d call a hardcore Mass Effect fan. Got the games, got the hoodie, got the t-shirt, got the mousepad. I have the soundtracks on my iPod. I didn\u2019t have a problem with the way ME3 ended, especially after Citadel (which was hours of DLC nigh-perfect fun, and for me the true end of the game). I was even ready to forgive the animation problems in Andromeda, because I figured that they\u2019d fix them.\nSo when I say that I\u2019ve had enough, I like to think that it means something. IP loyalty goes only so far, and it\u2019s gone far enough. So, no pre-orders of Anthem for me, and I\u2019ll be skipping future entries in Dragon Age. Mind you, I\u2019m just one dude, and I have no illusions that Bioware/EA even cares, or that they even should. And I\u2019m not yelling; I\u2019m just disappointed in the company. They could have done things better.\nOne worries that Bioware has progressed to late stage EA acquisition syndrome. Make lots of great games, get bought by EA, make some more great games, make some notable not as great games, start losing EA head office support, get micromanaged, make a few notable flops, get reduced to churning out same game with smaller budgets until game is dead, shut down studio and strip it for parts, use studio\u2019s name as brand for some dumb EA online service.\nBioware isn\u2019t there yet, but you can see it from here.\n*sheds tear for Westwood and Maxis.*\n*adds Origin Systems to the list*\nEh, I was always of the opinion that keeping ME alive was a cynical cash grab.\nThen the spin off company created to run the IP went full SJW.\nSo to the extent that I care, I\u2019m pleased by how things have panned out.\nThat said, I\u2019m hopeful for Anthem.\nNot that I\u2019m going to preorder it. The only video game company that I still trust enough to preorder from, is Bethesda.\nI am still waiting for my budget for a suitable Fallout 4 platform to refill after the last beating.\nIn the meantime, I have finally started reading the \u201cRepairman Jack\u201d series, so .. there\u2019s that.\nI have no hope for Anthem. It\u2019s a Destiny clone 4 player co-op multi-player. Oh yay.\nI\u2019ll still take a look at DA4, I didn\u2019t think Inquisition was a bad game. It just doesn\u2019t stand up to Witcher 3 well. But then, no Action RPG not named Mass Effect 2 does. But if DA4 is a DA2 level game, I\u2019ll take that as the sign Bioware has succumbed to EA\u2019s assimilation.\nAs far as preorders go, I\u2019ll still preorder from Sports Interactive and CD Projekt Red. SI because they give you 25% off the next edition of Football Manager if the previous is in your Steam library on preorder. $35 instead of $50 for a game I *know* I will play north of 500 hours in a year? Yeah. I can do that.\nI had lots of fun with Destiny.\nToo bad Bungie seems determined to kill it in the name of PvP e-sports.\nSlow, weak, and stupid is no fun.\nOh, Destiny was a good game for what it did. Not my cup of tea. But nothing wrong with it. That doesn\u2019t excuse Bioware for making the game they codenamed \u201cDylan\u201d for being groundbreaking a clone.\nI enjoyed ME:A a lot, and I\u2019m pretty upset about this news. Note that I\u2019m also someone who hated the ending of ME3, and lost interest in DA:I before finishing it.\nI\u2019m of the opinion that part of the blame for this should go to the reviewers. Yes, there were problems with the game. But following the game\u2019s release, it seemed as if every time I turned around, there was yet another review talking about how ME:A was the WORST THING EVAR!!1! The game had problems, but it seemed as if there was a general pile-on from the reviewing community in order to prove that none of them were EA stooges by saying as many negative things about the game as they could. And I think that the negative reactions to the game that resulted heavily influenced the decision not to release any single-player DLC.\nExcept that word of mouth was even worse than the reviews.\nThe ME fans who who were willing to forgive the ME:3 ending fiasco and pay a premium to be early adopters of ME:A got a Yugo with BMW badges in exchange for their loyalty.\nThose I know didn\u2019t take it at all well.\nME:A had a legacy to live up to.\nAnd that\u2019s the exact opposite of the opinion of the majority of ME:A players I\u2019ve spoken to. I loved the game. 95% of the people I\u2019ve spoken to who played it loved it. My word of mouth experience is almost entirely positive, and the vast majority of players that I\u2019ve spoken to in one form or another thought that the complaints were exaggerated and overblown.\nYou\u2019re honestly the 1st person I\u2019ve seen say they \u201cloved\u201d Andromeda. I\u2019ve talked to a lot of people who said, \u201cEh, it was good enough.\u201d But \u201cgood enough\u201d isn\u2019t what I want to spend $50 on.",

Judge Eaton fills the seat left open by Justice Geoffrey Crawford\u2019s appointment to the Federal District Court.\nJudge Eaton has served as a trial court judge since 2004, when he was appointed by former Gov. Jim Douglas. Previously, he was in private practice for 21 years, where he handled a variety of civil matters, including commercial litigation, insurance defense, and workers compensation cases. He began his legal career as a deputy state\u2019s attorney in Chittenden County. After leaving the state\u2019s attorney\u2019s office and practicing in Rutland, he and his law partner started the firm Eaton & Hayes in Eaton\u2019s hometown of Woodstock.\n\u201cDuke is a person of remarkable compassion with a deep understanding of our Judiciary at all levels,\u201d said Gov. Shumlin. \u201cHe comes from a proud family tradition of ensuring that our legal system serves the needs of all Vermonters. His deep sense of fairness and long-standing commitment to our courts make him an excellent addition to our Supreme Court.\u201d\nBorn in Windsor, Eaton grew up in Woodstock and attended Woodstock Union High School, the University of Vermont, and Vermont Law School. He is the first graduate of Vermont Law School to serve on the Vermont Supreme Court. His father served as an Assistant Judge for Windsor County for eight years and his mother served as the first director of what is now known as the Vermont Judicial Bureau in White River Junction.\n\u201cI am greatly honored that Governor Shumlin has chosen me to serve on the Supreme Court,\u201d said Eaton. \u201cVermont is a special place and Vermonters are a special people. I look forward to meeting the challenges that are ahead and am humbled by this opportunity to serve the people of my home.\u201d\nJudge Eaton is known for his efforts to make Vermont\u2019s legal system more accessible to the public and to inspire more Vermonters to embrace the responsibility of jury service. He has also been praised for working compassionately with young children involved in custody and Department for Children and Family cases.\nEaton is a member of the National Council of Juvenile and Family Court Judges and the American Law Institute. He has served on numerous judicial committees, including the Judiciary Advisory Council and committees devoted to family division oversight, civil division oversight, ethics and professionalism, court interpreters, and assistant judge education.

        "title": "Planes (2013) - MovieBoozer",
        "raw_content": "Matt Conway August 11, 2013 Leave a comment 1,165 Views\nDisney presents Planes, but not quiet the Disney you expect. A spin-off of the Cars franchise, Planes was a concept Cars creator John Lasseter proposed, and Disney accepted, but as a straight to DVD film by their side company DisneyToon Studios, which has mostly created straight to DVD projects except for smaller films like Teacher\u2019s Pet, Return to Neverland, The Tigger Movie, and several other average animated films. Then came casting the movie, when the talented and underrated Jon Cryer left the project for the offensive and overrated Dane Cook, just months before the project was being released in theaters, which led to many of the original trailers being completely without any voice acting!\nSpeaking of the trailers, all of them are rather mediocre, with most of them just showing off the flight animation, and another featuring some truly uninspired humor accompanied by many racial stereotypes that really turned me off to this project. Factor in how bad these family films have been as of late (Smurfs 2), the worst was expected walking into the theater. Surprisingly though, Planes was an enjoyable time in the theater.\nDusty Crophopper is a cropdusting plane with a dream unlike any other, to become a racing champion, but there is a catch. Dusty is a far less-advanced plane and has a serious fear of heights, but with heart and willpower, Dusty chases his goal of becoming a racer!\nThe visuals in Planes are quiet impressive. While it does not have the exact detail that the most highly touted Disney films do, it had far less money put into it. It has a very Cars-like style to it with its animation, and looks very similar to the original Cars film, which is impressive considering the budgetary constraints here.\nThe racing scenes look great. Long time animation director Klay Hall is able to capture the true soaring feeling of flying, while accompanying the scenes with a very Top Guns-like soundtrack to increase the true adrenaline in the soaring moments. The flying bits here are clearly shot, exciting, and a lot of fun to watch, which is great because there are a frequent amount of them, all of them being equally as good.\nPlanes has a very authentic and old fashioned-type energy to the film which was great to see for once. With most animated films making lazy pop culture references and shoving in popular talents as voice actors, Planes does not feel the need to force these elements in to attract audiences. Instead, it\u2019s the simple and innocent family film that is trying to be, which was a breath of fresh air.\nThe voice acting here is good, featuring many unappreciated talents. While it seemed that Dane Cook would be a bad choice, he does a competent job here as Dusty, and is able to voice the willpower and desire the character has. Stealing the show here is Brad Garrett, whose distinct voice and comedic chops is able to create a funny bit nearly every time he was on screen. Other voice actors like John Cleese, Cedric the Entertainer, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, and Stacy Keach stay in their wheelhouses here, but they do that role very well yet again.\nMust\u2026resist\u2026urge\u2026to punch\nPlanes surprisingly has a good amount of laughs for adults. Scribe Jeffrey Howard has more than a few smart bits in here that got a laugh out of me, along with some visual aesthetics in the movie. It\u2019s not anywhere close to being one of the funniest animated movies of recent memory, but there were enough laughs to be satisfied.\nThe story here is by the numbers for sure. It\u2019s basically the same underdog story, with the typical rise and fall for the protagonist. The problem is, they didn\u2019t give the events enough time to develop. The film is about 92 minutes long, and flies by in a minute, but the film needed more time for Dusty\u2019s rise to power, which hurt the impact of the story.\nAnother problem with the script is the lack of laughs for children. Seeing this with a packed crowd full of children, there was the expectation that there would be a lot of laughs in the theater. Surprisingly, there were very little laughs for the target audience, which leads me to think that Howard spent too much time focusing on getting adults to laugh instead of the kids, which is a bit of a letdown. For me, a great family film should have children and adults laughing at the same jokes, not designing jokes for one or the other.\nLook what you\u2019ve done Planes!\nThe film featured a bit too many stereotypical characters for my liking, and went a bit too far with them. Most of the other racers are just defined by their race and accent, which is not giving a good message at all to children. While these stereotypes were not played up to the levels of being offensive, it was aggravating to see such lazily drawn characters, because they could have been comedic dynamite.\nA minor issue; the marketing for Planes stressed the fact that it took place in the world of Cars, and it would have been great if they could have integrated the Cars brand much better. Sure, they are able to get their due, but it just left questions for the audience about how these two are involved. Personally, the idea of having the cars and planes together sounds more interesting for kids to see for sure, but it\u2019s easy to understand the limitations they had.\nSome characters could have been left out though\u2026.\nPlanes may have some issues in story structure and characters, but soars at creating a fun, old-fashioned family experience for all ages to enjoy. With most of the family films out now being crap (Smurfs 2), families should check this out for sure!\nDo a Shot: for each racial stereotype.\nTake a Drink: during each generic plot point.\nTake a Drink: during the painful musical number",

        "raw_content": "Posted by myboysay | Oct 9, 2018 | Business, Entertainment, GLOBAL BUSINESS ENTREPRENEURS, GLOBAL NEWS UPDATES AND MORE, GLOBAL SPORTS, HALL OF FAME, Health, Most Commented, NCAA Football, News, NFL, Sports, U.S., World | 0 |\nGeorge Taliaferro, the first African-American ever selected in an NFL draft, has died at the age of 91 in Bloomington, Indiana.\nThe announcement of his death was made by the George Taliaferro Sport Association on Monday night. Taliaferro grew up in Indiana and starred on the University of Indiana\u2019s only undefeated team before a stint in the United States Army in 1946.\nA member of the College Football Hall of Fame, Taliaferro was a pivotal figure in the Indiana team that went 9-0-1 in 1945, the only team in the program\u2019s history to remain unbeaten throughout the campaign.\nIn his rookie season in 1945, Taliaferro took college football by storm, becoming the first African-American to lead the Big Ten in rushing and leading Indiana in punting.\nIn an era when players were deployed across a number of positions, the Tennessee-born running back also led the Hoosiers in rushing twice in four years and topped the team\u2019s chart in passing in 1948.\nAfter his freshman year he was drafted into the Army and sent to a base in Virginia where he became captain of the Army that won a Mid-Atlantic title.\n@IU_GTSA\nNew York Yanks quarterback George Taliaferro, 1949 Rookie of The Year, runs on the field, carrying a football, circa 1949. Keystone/Getty Images\nHe returned to Indiana after just a year and collected All-American honors for another three consecutive seasons until 1948\u2014he had also been named All-American in his rookie year.\nIn 1949, he became the first African-American to be selected in the NFL draft, as the Chicago Bears chose him in the 13th round with the number 129 overall pick. Taliaferro, however, chose against playing for the Bears, opting to sign for the Los Angeles Dons of the All-America Football Conference instead.\nHe played with the Dons in 1949, when he was named Rookie of the Year, before entering the NFL in the 1950-51 season with the New York Yanks and then moving onto the Dallas Texans in 1952. Two seasons with the Baltimore Colts followed, before Taliaferro retired in 1955 after a single campaign with the Philadelphia Eagles.\nIn 1953, he enjoyed the best season of his NFL career, recording career highs in rushing attempts and rushing yards with 102 and 479 respectively and 346 receiving yards, which was also a career best.\nA three-time Pro Bowl selection, Taliaferro amassed 2,266 rushing yards across 498 carries, scoring 15 rushing touchdowns throughout his career, to which he added 95 receptions for 1,300 yards and 12 touchdowns.\nNicknamed \u201cThe Jackie Robinson of Football,\u201d Taliaferro\u2019s impact in bringing down racial barriers extended beyond the boundaries of college football and the NFL. During his time in Indiana he was subject to racial abuse but he spearheaded an effort to end segregation at the university\u2019s campus in Bloomington.\n\u201cI felt like a fifth-class citizen,\u201d he told The Undefeated in a wide-ranging interview last year, when asked about the issues he faced when he first arrived in Bloomington.\n\u201cBeing educated is not only the acquisition of knowledge, but the understanding of what\u2019s going on in the world and learning to conduct yourself with and among people of all races.\u201d\nMORE ON THE 1ST AFRICAN AMERICAN NFL PLAYER EVER TO BE DRAFTED:\nGeorge Taliaferro (January 8, 1927 \u2013 October 8, 2018) was a professional American football player. He was the first African American drafted by a National Football League team.\nBeginning his football career at Indiana University for the Hoosiers team, he played for the NFL for the New York Yanks from 1950 to 1951, the Dallas Texans in 1952, the Baltimore Colts from 1953 to 1954, and Philadelphia Eagles in 1955.\nTaliaferro was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 1981.\nTaliaferro was born in Gates, Tennessee. Before his college years, he moved to Gary, Indiana. He attended to Indiana University in Bloomington, Indiana in 1945. While at Indiana University, Taliaferro became a member of Kappa Alpha Psi fraternity.\nAs the leading rusher and an All-American at Indiana University, he led the Hoosier football program to their only undefeated Big Ten Conference championship. He was a three-time All-American, Taliaferro led the Hoosiers in rushing twice, punting in 1945 and passing in 1948. Taliaferro helped break the color barrier in sports, playing for the Hoosiers two years before Jackie Robinson suited up for the Brooklyn Dodgers. He was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 1981.\nTaliaferro, a halfback, quarterback, and punter, was picked by the Chicago Bears in the thirteenth round of the 1949 NFL Draft but chose to play instead with the Los Angeles Dons of the All-America Football Conference. This made him the first African American drafted by a National Football League team.\nHe played with the Dons in 1949, then moved to the NFL, where he played with the New York Yanks 1950-51, Dallas Texans 1952, Baltimore Colts 1953-54, and Philadelphia Eagles 1955. He went to the Pro Bowl in 1951, 1952, and 1953.\nA documentary about Taliaferro, titled Indiana Legends: George Taliaferro, was produced by WTIU public television in Bloomington, Indiana. His nephew is Baltimore Ravens halfback Lorenzo Taliaferro.\nTaliaferro died at age 91 on October 8, 2018 in Bloomington, Indiana.\nMORE ON THE GREAT GEORGE TALIAFERRO\nAt 90 years old, the first African-American drafted into the NFL recalls a career in which he took on seven positions\nGeorge Taliaferro (20) of the New York Yankees football team, is shown in New York, Nov. 2, 1950. Taliaferro was the first African-American to be drafted by an NFL team.\nNot long after George Taliaferro answers the phone in his room at a Cincinnati-area senior home, the man who has played more positions than any player in NFL history is apologizing. \u201cI\u2019m 90 years old,\u201d Taliaferro says. \u201cI don\u2019t percept as quickly today as I did yesteryear.\u201d\nAnd then Taliaferro, his voice booming, spends the next 90 minutes sharing stories about his All-American collegiate career at Indiana, how he discovered he was drafted into the NFL and how he became the most versatile player the league has known.\nIn seven NFL seasons, Taliaferro played an unheard-of seven positions: quarterback, running back, wide receiver, punter, kick returner, punt returner and defensive back. Asked his favorite, Taliaferro responds without hesitation.\n\u201cFootball,\u201d he said. \u201cI just enjoyed playing football.\u201d\nBorn in Tennessee, Taliaferro was an infant when his parents moved to Gary, Indiana, where his father was employed at a steel mill. Like many black kids during that time, Taliaferro grew up admiring Joe Louis and wanted to be a boxer. He even caddied for Louis when the fighter would drive from Chicago to play golf in Gary. \u201cHe said he liked me because I\u2019d always find his balls,\u201d Taliaferro remembered.\nBut Taliaferro\u2019s mother forbade him to box. \u201cMy dad insisted that I do something to burn off energy,\u201d he said. \u201cFootball was that something.\u201d\nDuring sandlot games, Taliaferro could have easily dipped, sidestepped and run around his friends, but he chose a different approach. \u201cI was running over people,\u201d he said. He maintained that on-the-field toughness as a star at all-black Roosevelt High School in Gary.\nDuring his senior year, the coach of an all-white school in Chicago reached out to the Roosevelt coach and requested a scrimmage game as a tune-up for the Illinois state championship. Playing in his first game against a top-level all-white team, Taliaferro was dominant.\n\u201cThat coach from Chicago told the coach at Indiana [University] about me,\u201d Taliaferro said. \u201cThat\u2019s how I wound up in Bloomington.\u201d\nGeorge Taliaferro, triple-threat halfback of Indiana University.\nWhen he arrived at Indiana, Taliaferro wasn\u2019t happy. \u201cI felt like a fifth-class citizen.\u201d\nAfter being dropped off to stay with a black family, Taliaferro was eager to move onto campus to experience life in the dorms. \u201cBeing educated is not only the acquisition of knowledge,\u201d he said, \u201cbut the understanding of what\u2019s going on in the world and learning to conduct yourself with and among people of all races.\u201d\nAs the first day of school approached, Taliaferro asked the football coaches when he was going to be moved on campus. He was told black students didn\u2019t live in dorms.\n\u201cI called my father and told him I didn\u2019t want to be in a place where I couldn\u2019t live on campus, where I couldn\u2019t swim in the pool and where I couldn\u2019t sit in the bottom section of the movie theater,\u201d Taliaferro said. \u201cMy father told me there were other reasons I was there, and then he hung up the phone on me. I was never so hurt because I thought the one person who could understand being discriminated against was him.\u201d\nThat tough love stemmed from two things his parents, neither of whom went past sixth grade, told him every day as he grew up. \u201cThey\u2019d say, \u2018We love you,\u2019 \u201d he recalled. \u201cAnd, \u2018You must be educated.\u2019 \u201d\nSo Taliaferro stayed, and he released that pent-up frustration on the football field. He remembered walking out on the field for his first college game at Michigan on Sept. 22, 1945, and looking at the fans who filled the 85,000-seat stadium \u2014 the biggest crowd he had ever seen in his life.\n\u201cEvery black person from Gary came to that game, and when I looked up I asked God, \u2018Why am I here?\u2019 \u201d Taliaferro said. \u201cAnd then I said they\u2019re going to catch hell catching me. And they did. I put on a show.\u201d\nTaliaferro scored a touchdown (another was called back) in Indiana\u2019s 13-7 win. It was the start of the only undefeated season in school history (9-0-1), the Hoosiers\u2019 only outright Big Ten title (they shared a championship in 1967) and the highest season-ending school ranking (fourth). It was also the first of three All-America seasons at Indiana for Taliaferro, who led the team twice in rushing (1945 and 1948), three times in punting (1945, 1947, 1948) and once in passing (1948). His 95-yard kickoff return against Minnesota in 1945 still ranks ninth on Indiana\u2019s all-time list.\nHe was drafted into the Army after his freshman year and shipped to an Army base in Virginia. He was one of 66 men on the bus from Indiana to Virginia. When he arrived, the other 65 were taken to the barracks; Taliaferro was taken to the office of the commanding officer.\n\u201cHe said, \u2018I\u2019m happy to have you as a member of our company, and I\u2019m looking forward to having you bring us a championship team in football,\u2019 \u201d Taliaferro recalled. \u201cI got hot, right there, and I told him I didn\u2019t plan to play.\u201d\nGeorge Taliaferro (20), of the New York Yanks, flying through the air, but it tackled Los Angeles Rams\u2019 Paul Barry.\nThe commanding officer then leaned forward in his seat, put his elbows on his desk and laid out his two options: Play football during his one-year commitment or go to officer\u2019s candidate school with an enlistment of three years.\n\u201cI said, \u2018I\u2019ll see you at the football practice,\u2019 \u201d Taliaferro said. \u201cI had been hit on the head [playing football], but I hadn\u2019t had my brain knocked out.\u201d\nTaliaferro was the captain of the Army team that won a Mid-Atlantic title before he returned to Indiana.\nAfter his college career ended in 1949, he was at a Chicago restaurant taking a break from workouts with other football players when Earl Banks, who later became the legendary coach at Morgan State University, excitedly walked in holding up a newspaper. \u201cGuess who got drafted,\u201d Banks said, and the group immediately started running off the names of white players they knew.\nBanks showed the group the headline:\nTaliaferro drafted by the Chicago Bears.\nIt was an odd place to discover his place in history: Taliaferro, selected in the 13th round, was the first African-American player drafted by the NFL.\n\u201cI knew everybody who ever played with the Bears,\u201d Taliaferro said. \u201cThat was my team.\u201d\nBut Taliaferro never played with the Bears, having signed a contract the previous week to play for the Los Angeles Dons of the rival All-America Football Conference. He joined the NFL with the New York Yanks during the 1951 and 1952 seasons, and moved west with that team in 1952 when it became the Dallas Texans.\nWhen the Dallas franchise failed, the players went to Baltimore, where Taliaferro played two years with the Colts. He played his last season, 1955, with the Philadelphia Eagles.\nNew York Yanks quarterback George Taliaferro was the 1949 Rookie of The Year.\nDuring his seven-year professional career, Taliaferro had 15 rushing touchdowns, 1,300 receiving yards, 843 passing yards and 35 forced fumbles (13 recovered). He averaged 21 yards on kickoff returns, 7.8 yards on punt returns and 37.7 yards on punts as he established himself as the most versatile player in NFL history.\n\u201cI\u2019m the one person in the history of the NFL to play seven positions,\u201d Taliaferro bragged. \u201cWhen I went on the field, the game was over when I came off.\u201d\nWhile he claims he didn\u2019t have a favorite position when he played in college and the NFL, Taliaferro said he took special pride in playing quarterback.\n\u201cThe coaches didn\u2019t think I could do it,\u201d he said. \u201cI showed them that I could.\u201d\nAfter his career ended, Taliaferro turned down an opportunity to coach at Morgan State. He did serve under Banks as an unpaid assistant for 13 years and was the dean of students for two years.\nHe returned to Bloomington in 1972 to become a special assistant to the school president at Indiana University. Both he and his wife, Viola (who became a judge), lived in Bloomington until earlier this year, when they moved into a retirement home near Cincinnati.\nAsked to sum up his football career, Taliaferro paused for a moment before responding.\n\u201cI never tried to outdo anybody,\u201d he said. \u201cI just tried to be the very best I could be.\u201d\nWith that, Taliaferro says goodbye.\nAfter an hour and a half, it\u2019s clear that the 90-year-old Taliaferro, who played a sport that\u2019s in the spotlight today for battering the brain, still percepts very well.\nPreviousMLB playoffs: Los Angeles Dodgers back in the NLCS after eliminating Atlanta in four games\nNextDavid Price Pitched The Boston Red Sox Back Into Another World Series With A 4-1 Victory Over The Defending Champion Houston Astros On Thursday Night.\nTHE TEXAS LONGHORNS FOOTBALL TEAM, LEAD BY HEAD COACH CHARLIE STRONG IS STARTING TO PAVE THEIR WAY TO A PROBABLE BOWL INVITE WITH THEIR VICTORY OVER WEST VIRGINIA, WHO WAS A TOP #25 RANKED TEAM COMING INTO AUSTIN TEXAS\nBoxing Breaking News: HALL OF FAME REFEREE, ARTHUR MERCANTE DIES, ONE OF THE GREATEST BOSSES IN THE RING",

        "title": "4 Things That Distract From A Beautiful Room Design | My Decorative",
        "raw_content": "Fashion mavens swear by a trick. They say that you should do a random inspection before you leave and remove the first accessory that you see. The idea is that less is more, and that premise applies to homes as well. Here are four little things that distract from a beautiful room design.\nSymmetry isn\u2019t always great. That\u2019s especially true with home decor. When everything is on the same level, it all tends to run together. For this reason, you don\u2019t want to buy a bunch of decorations that are all the same height. Similarly, you shouldn\u2019t buy paintings and other accessories that are similar in size. The sameness will dull the senses. None of the items will stand out from the others, negating all the effort you expended in picking the perfect items. Avoid parallels when possible.\nOne of the most popular trends in modern interior design is minimalism. The explanation is simple. Clutter is a form of white noise in your home. When you have too many decorations on the walls, a guest in your home will struggle to distinguish any single item. Once again, everything will run together.\nYou must avoid clutter when possible. Instead, you should take a different approach. Do everything that you can to accentuate a few key decorations. Cast a critical eye at the current items on your walls. Which ones do you love? You should highlight them and remove anything that doesn\u2019t move you. With less clutter, each item will have a spotlight and draw the attention that you feel it deserves.\nAs you\u2019re planning your room design, don\u2019t forget the basics. Did you know that even most museums use temperature controls to make each room feel as comfortable as possible? It\u2019s true. Museums use computerized controls to keep room temperatures between 18 and 20 degrees Celsius, which is 64.4 to 68 degrees Fahrenheit. Their philosophy is that a patron should think about the art, not the climate.\nYou should do the same in your home. Thanks to Google Nest technology, you can create the ideal temperature settings. Your guests will feel comfortable when they visit. Since they won\u2019t be obsessing about the temperature, they\u2019ll have more mental energy to admire the decor in your home.\nDo you have a favorite store for home goods? That\u2019s only natural. Every chain tries to develop a style and tone that will entice customers to become frequent shoppers. Meanwhile, local stores offer a variety of unique pieces that show flair and novelty. You want to mix these items as much as possible.\nUnfortunately, a lot of people do the opposite. As creatures of habit, they develop a shopping routine. Part of this routine involves shopping at the same places. When they do that, they buy a lot of decor that looks similar.\nTo avoid this sort of decorative monotony, make sure to shop at lots of places. Try not to buy multiple pieces at the same place. Your decor will seem more diverse and engaging.\nElegant room decor is a lost art. You can bring it back into vogue by avoiding common design mistakes!\nFeatured, Living Room\nbeautiful room design, common design mistakes, google nest technology, living room, living room decor, living room design, modern interior design, room temperature",

With its new package, ideal for taking anywhere, The Essence of Happiness is poised to become the handbook for living.\nAlthough we are materially better off than ever before, surveys show that we are depressed and listless. In his revolutionary book, Buddhist monk Matthieu Ricard shows that happiness is not just an emotion, but a skill that can be developed. Free of mumbo jumbo, The Art of Happiness contains twenty-minute exercises to train the mind to recognize and pursue happiness by concentrating on life's fundamentals, revealing the significant benefits that changing the way we view the world can bring to each of us.\nCutting-edge science and spirituality tell us that what we believe, think, and feel actually determine the makeup of our body at the cellular level. In Zen and the Art of Happiness, you will learn how to think and feel so that what you think and feel creates happiness and vibrancy in your life rather than gloominess or depression.\n'It is not our struggle to be happy that is mistaken; it is our false idea that we can find happiness anywhere but in ourselves... happiness does not depend on outward things. It is born of the mind, it is nourished by the mind, it is what rises, like breath in a frosty air, from the mind's wrestling with its fate...' The Art of Happiness (first published in 1935) belongs to John Cowper Powys's sequence of philosophical writings, and finds him exploring the problem of how man lives with his fellow man, and also with woman - that is to say, here, as opposed to the abstract arguments concerning Man in the universe, Powys is concerned with the practical arguments such as arise between man and his neighbour, his wife, his lover - and also with man's arguments against himself, all in the pursuit of happiness. The careful reader will find herein hints, clues, intimations, as to how we all might become a little happier - an invitation few of us would feel so fortunate as to refuse.\nControl Theory for Partial Differential Equations: Continuous and Approximation Theories (Encyclopedia of Mathematics and its Applications)\nYour Office: Getting Started with Advanced Problem Solving Cases (Your Office for Office 2016 Series)\nThe United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities: A Commentary\nBuilding Java Programs: A Back to Basics Approach, Student Value Edition (4th Edition)\nVocabul\u00c3\u00a1rio Portugu\u00c3\u00aas-H\u00c3\u00bangaro - 9000 palavras mais \u00c3\u00bateis (Portuguese Edition)\nStochastic and Integral Geometry (Probability and Its Applications)\nBreakdown: The Inside Story of the Rise and Fall of Heenan Blaikie\nBeyond Religious Freedom: The New Global Politics of Religion\nSoroka.

        "raw_content": "Published Date : 4 August, 2018 10:11 pm\nBy Mao Keji (Global Times), 4 August 2018) \u2013 Riding high on rapid economic growth and the BJP\u2019s various state election victories across the country, Narendra Modi has perhaps come to be one of the most influential statesmen in the history of modern India. However, controversies fail to leave him. Even four years after his premiership, questions like \u201cIs Modi good for India?\u201d still preoccupy Indian society, igniting round after round of heated debates among \u201cthe argumentative Indians\u201d \u2013 a phrase Indian Nobel Laureate Amartya Sen uses to portray fellow citizens.\nWith India\u2019s next general election lined up in less than a year in April or May 2019, how Indians perceive and debate about Modi and his polices may provide valuable insights into the future trajectory of the country.\nPolitical, cultural, religious, and social issues have all been major sources of the controversies around Modi, especially given his reputation of promoting a hardline Hindutva agenda and his majoritarian stance on sensitive issues. However, none of these are as important to Indians as the economic issue.\nThe extraordinary importance Indian people have attached to economic issues is tellingly demonstrated on online debating sites such as kialo.com. Economic subjects not only trigger the most polarized and dramatic debates, but also attract the largest number of followers and comments.\nAfter all, in contrast to high-sounding slogans and endless dogfights among rival politicians, it is economic policies that lead to objective results. Amid deep controversies over Modi\u2019s social and political agenda, at the end of the day it is the economic growth that delivers tangible fruits.\nProbably this is why economic policies remain the most debated genre when it comes to the controversies around Modi. However, if economic statistics do provide relatively objective performance indicators, why have these controversies persisted? The answer is simple: the benefits Modi\u2019s economic policies bring about are not evenly distributed.\nFew people doubt the long-term benefits of initiatives like GST reform and demonetization as these measures make the economy more efficient and streamlined. But, \u201ceconomic black-outs\u201d caused by reforms and resulting social turmoil triggered waves of opposition, if not outrage, against Modi.\nWhile the damage takes place immediately, benefits are promised to accrue over time. This creates distrust and skepticism. Luckily, with GST reform and demonetization implemented more than one year ago, some benefits are coming to light. Thanks to reforms, according to a recent IMF report, the Indian economy is expected to pick up at a rosy rate of 7.4 percent in 2018 and 7.8 percent in 2019.\nCompared to \u201cthe intertemporally uneven distribution,\u201d what\u2019s thornier to cope with is the social-economically uneven distribution among different groups. Reforms on labor regulation, land acquisition and environmental protection may help India streamline its factor endowment utilization, allowing it to fully use its comparative advantages in, for instance, labor intensive industries. To some extent, they are key to Modi\u2019s \u201cMake in India\u201d initiative as well as the country\u2019s journey toward industrialization.\nWhile the generated benefits are shared with the whole society, certain groups \u2013 for instance, land owners, organized sector employees and tribal people \u2013 bear the brunt. This pattern of distribution is bound to bring about opposition laced with resentment.\nIn order to put India on the fast track to development, Modi needs to deepen reforms. In fact, the charismatic leader Modi was very lucky that when he came to power in 2014, international commodity prices hit the bottom and global liquidity was more than abundant. Such a favorable external environment gave a fillip to the Indian economy \u2013 inflation, fiscal deficit and trade deficit were all under control.\nHowever, even with so many favorable conditions, Modi found that reforms on labor regulation and land acquisition were extremely hard to advance. What block such reforms are not only the groups that bear the brunt, but also the time-honored political-economic norms of the country.\nShould labor, land property and environment be protected? Of course, they should. If there is nothing wrong with them, then why should they be reformed? After all, it is impossible to solve problems when they are not even regarded as problems. What Modi\u2019s reforms actually challenge is the vested interests shielded by established values and norms. This may well be another important reason for Modi\u2019s policy to become controversial.\nCounterintuitively, demonetization and the new GST regime were actually relatively easy parts of the economic reforms, because they neither challenge established economic-political values and rhetoric, nor involve social groups with well-defined interests. As these low-hanging fruits have been picked, what awaits Modi are actually harder and more controversial, albeit vital reforms.\nNow, Modi has made significant inroads into the cause of reform. Major progress in industrialization and digitalization has been made through various initiatives like \u201cMake in India\u201d and \u201cDigital India.\u201d\nHowever, history of modern India suggests that reforms are the exception rather than the rule: New Delhi has been inconsistent in following through with reforms, with one administration reversing the policies of its predecessors, especially when they were buffeted by severe political headwinds.\nThe odds are that real reforms are bound to be controversial, before their benefits are fully realized. Let\u2019s hope Indians are patient enough, while Indian decision-makers are capable and smart enough, so that the country can navigate the uncharted waters of its economic take-off.\nThe author is an associate researcher at the International Cooperation Center of the National Development and Reform Commission. opinion@globaltimes.com.cn",

        "raw_content": "Cell Phones and Brain Tumors: No Link?\nA new review study finds no good evidence of a cell phone-brain tumor connection. Now what to believe?\nRecent years have brought much public worry about the possible link between cell phones and brain tumors. And scientific studies have done little to lessen people\u2019s fears, since the results have been frustratingly inconclusive.\nMany experts have been slow to jump on the bandwagon, since plenty of other studies have shown no link, or an unconvincing one.\nJust a few months ago a large-scale study reported that the risk of two types of brain tumors (glioma and acoustic neuroma) was double in cell phone users over the period of ten years \u2014 the authors even volunteered a number of tips to help users reduce their risk. The World Health Organization (WHO) then stated that cell phones are \"possibly carcinogenic to humans.\" Still, many experts have been slow to jump on the bandwagon, since plenty of other studies have shown no link, or an unconvincing one.\nNow, another large scale study reports no increased risk in cell phone users over the 10 to 15 years that people have been using them. The authors reviewed a previously published study that quizzed 13,000 people about their cell phones use over a period of 10 years.\nThe authors conclude that \"[a]lthough there remains some uncertainty, the trend in the accumulating evidence is increasingly against the hypothesis that mobile phone use can cause brain tumors in adults.\" They do say, however, that \"[m]ethodological deficits limit the conclusions that can be drawn\" from the study, which was funded by the cell industry. One problem was that the study asked people to recall their behavior (here, cell phone use) in previous years, which is always tricky in scientific studies because the accuracy of participants recall can be questionable.\nSo, whether this new study will affect how the public, the media, and the scientific community view cell phone safety remains to be seen. The authors point out that because of the relative recency of cell phone use, it may take several more years, or decades, before we know more. We\u2019ll be sure to stay tuned as more research in this area unfolds.\nThe study was carried out by researchers at the British Institute of Cancer Research, and published in the July 1, 2011 online issue of Environmental Health Perspectives.\nDo cell phones increase tumor risk?",

Please consult the link to read the foreword, highlights and full report.\nESA EU outreach\nESA recently contributed to a joint response of BioMed Alliance members to a European Commission consultation on the new EU legislative framework around scientific advisory structures for Medical Devices and In-Vitro Diagnostics. The Alliance recommended that European medical professional associations should be involved as advisers to regulators, so that they can identify and recommend qualified individuals from their networks of experts. As a result, ESA President Stef de Hert will participate in a meeting with the European Commission in early 2019 to discuss further how the expert panels might function.\nThe BioMed Alliance is also actively promoting the need for a science-led Steering Board for Health under the next multi-annual funding framework for research and innovation, better known as Horizon Europe. Daniela Filipescu, Honorary ESA member with oversight of EU Affairs, and Executive Manager Marc Gheeraert have been helping to promote this idea in meetings with EU officials and other health policy events taking place in Brussels.\nThe Union of European Medical Specialists (UEMS) organised it\u2019s Fourth Conference on CME-CPD which took place in Brussels on 23-24 November 2018. The bi-annual conference brings together all stakeholder groups with an interest in European Continuing Medical Education such as Scientific Societies, Reviewers, Industry, Patients Organisations, etc. The rapid evolution of medical education and the need to adapt CME in response to new trends, as well as the challenges related to the e-learning tools were highlighted. ESA Scientific Affairs Manager Raffaella Donadio made a presentation on Challenges for Providers.\nA high-level EU Health Policy Summit took place in late November in Brussels, entitled EU Health Summit \u2013 a Shared Vision for Health. Participants from across the health community discussed how Europe could develop and take the lead in areas such as research and innovation, health data and digital health, healthcare organisation and financing as well as health in all policies. Interestingly, an informal poll was taken at the beginning and at the end of the event to ask participants their opinion on the most important focus for improving the health of European citizens. At the beginning of the event, \u2018prevention\u2019 was seen to be the priority. By the end of the event, polling identified \u2018outcomes\u2019 as the most important focus for health improvement efforts. The event was attended by Daniela Filipescu, Honorary ESA member with oversight of EU Affairs, Executive Manager Marc Gheeraert and EU Affairs Manager Helen Brewer.\nOn 3 December, EU Affairs Manager Helen Brewer attended an event in the European Parliament organised by the Global Alliance of Mental Illness Advocacy Networks (GAMIAN) & the European Psychiatric Association. At the event, entitled New Horizons for Person-centred Mental Health Research and Care, MEP Tomas Zdechovsky provided powerful testimony about the human impact of delayed cognitive recovery after surgery. Stakeholders concluded the meeting by calling on the European Commission as well as on national authorities to ensure more resources for and a stronger focus on patient-centred mental health policies, services and research.\nOther news & opportunities\nThe European Commission launched a public consultation on legislation on medicines for special populations (in particular children and rare diseases) \u2013 Interested parties, especially health professionals and citizens, are invited to share their views on the extent to which EU legislation is efficient and effective, and whether it is fit for purpose in the light of developments in the area of pharmaceuticals. It will look in particular at the impact of incentives introduced for research, development and marketing, for these specific medicines. The consultation is open until 4 January 2019.\nWhy should ESA and ESPA participate in the consultation? \u2013 to help to shape the EU policy on medicines for children in particular as they relate to anaesthesiology.\nESA support required: Paediatric anaethesiologist to provide input to consultation (questionnaire and up to 600 words free text response).

Everything went perfectly to plan and the guys at WDK Motorsport were again on top form so we really made the most of it and I couldn't have asked for more.\n\"This is the last time I'll be in the March this year but I hope to be back out with everyone next season - Classic F3 is a fantastic series and it's great to see full grids made up of such stunning machinery.\n\"Max and I now turn our attention to the Jerez Historic Festival in just under two weeks' time where Max will be racing his Lotus 77, and we'll also be sharing his Chevron B19 for the Historic Sports Cars race that same weekend. The Chevron is a new car for us but I'm really looking forward to getting out there and seeing what we can do.\"\nFull results from the Anglo-French Motors Cup at Brands Hatch, provided by MST World, are available at http://results.mstworld.com/Results/getPDF?eventid=14211&series=hsc.",

        "raw_content": "The Huck Finn Controversy Again\nPosted by David Foster\nA junior at Richland High School in Fort Worth, Texas, who is described as being black and Muslim, was offended recently when a teacher, in an introductory unit on Huckleberry Finn, printed the N-word \u2013 the whole word - on the board (along with other words that were expected to evoke emotion). This led to the formation by several groups of \u201cactivists\u201d of the \u201cCoalition to Stop the N-Word\u201d. Almost everything about the story is predictable - except for the main outcome. The \u201cactivists\u201d made the usual demands, including eliminating the use of the book, but after a long meeting, which school superintendent Stephen Waddell described as \u201ccordial and very productive,\u201d there had been a dramatic turnabout. We don\u2019t know much about what was said, but it would seem that the good Superintendent actually made arguments, and that they were effective. Writing in the Star-Telegram, Bob Ray Sanders reports that Waddell had been reading Their Eyes Were Watching God by Zora Neale Hurston, another book taught in the school. \u201cWaddell pointed out that Hurston\u2019s book also was filled with usage of that word and asked whether banning Twain would naturally lead to banning Hurston\u2019s and many other books by blacks and Hispanics that often end up on the list of most-protested works in the country.\u201d After the meeting, the \u201cactivists\u201d no longer demanded the removal of the book, \u201cas they thought it was a book from which blacks and whites could learn.\u201d Very productive, indeed; and congratulations to the folks in Fort Worth who reached this sensible conclusion.\nThe freedom to read and stock a book should not depend on the recognition of anyone's ability, let alone the ability of any particular group, to \"learn from it.\" That's not how we judge liberty.\nIndeed, not. Still, it is progress when a person is persuaded that he or she has something to learn, especially when we are talking about the sort of \"activists\" involved here.",

Occasionally I would call the Temple of Kriya Yoga in Chicago to get advice from him, but he was not there this time. I got the general stoic answer from the temple that he has left the body and moved on to better things. Yogis do not see death as the end. I fact, its viewed like going to sleep.\nTo say that this man has had an impact on my life would be putting it mildly. I joined the Temple Seminary program in 2009. I never did make it ordination. Something inside of me told me that it was not the right time. I may go back and finish the program, but I am content to share what I know now. Personally, I have never been one for titles and my rebellious nature generally throws a wrench into my academic pursuits.\nGoswami Kriyananda\u2019s take on Kriya Yoga was unique. I have studied under other gurus, but he had a way of making Kriya accessible to all. He was also the first guru I have encountered that used western astrology. Of his many admirable attributes, one I held in high esteem is that he never put himself above his teachings. Over the course of his life, he wrote many wonderful books about Kriya Yoga. Thanks to him, we now have access to valuable knowledge. As I go along in my blog, I will be referencing his materials.\nGoodbye Guruji, I will miss you.",

        "raw_content": "Cure for Hot Flashes!\nPosted on January 8, 2010 by Dan Hammer\nCan the Cure for Hot Flashes be a Cardiovascular Health Issue?\nYou may be wondering why a blog on heart disease would contain a post on the cure for hot flashes. The answer lies in the Women\u2019s Health Initiative (WHI) study. This study was launched in 1991 and included 161,808 generally healthy postmenopausal women. It was designed to be a major 15-year research program to address the most common causes of death, disability and poor quality of life in this category of women.\nThe clinical trials were designed to test the effects of hormone therapy, diet, and calcium and vitamin D supplements on heart disease, bone health, and breast and colorectal cancer.\nThe study was stopped in 2002 because the results of the study strongly suggested that conventional hormone replacement therapy for menopausal symptoms increased the risk for heart disease, cancer, stroke and http://no-more-heart-disease.com/aspirin-or-nitric-oxide/blood clotting[/intlink] in women. Three direct health issues that involve the cardiovascular system.\nThis caused a surge in women looking for natural remedies for peri menopause and menopausal symptoms. Remedies that would protect themselves but also help relive symptoms like hot flashes! This surge created a tremendous amount of confusion which still persists today.\nTo help address this issue I\u2019ve two articles you can link to.\nNatural Remedies for Hot Flashes! \u2013 This article will address one of the most annoying of all the menopausal symptoms which is hot flashes. Learning how to effectively use natural remedies for hot flashes can be a Godsend for women who are experiencing this embarrassing and debilitating problem.\nhttp://no-more-heart-disease.com/hot-flashes-and-night-sweats/Get Rid of Your Hot Flashes and Night Sweats Once and for All![/intlink] \u2013 This short video and information sheet contains my wife Sherry\u2019s story. How we addressed one health issue of http://no-more-heart-disease.com/nitric-oxide-and-blood-pressure/high blood pressure[/intlink] and in the process also completely eliminate her hot flashes and night sweats. If this video and information speaks to you, then I would invite you to join our group.\nIt\u2019s estimated that 80% of women today experience some type of menopausal symptom resulting from hormonal imbalance. Depending upon your method of treatment, this could also have a potential affect on your cardiovascular system. Hopefully, these two articles will help educate you so that when you work with a qualified health professional you can design a program that improves your heart health while providing you with a cure for hot flashes.\nThis entry was posted in Menopause and tagged Cardiovascular Health, Cardiovascular System, Cure For Hot Flashes, Heart Disease, High Blood Pressure, Hormone Replacement Therapy, Hot Flashes, Menopausal Symptoms, Natural Remedies For Hot Flashes, Postmenopausal Women, Remedies For Hot Flashes, What Causes Hot Flashes by Dan Hammer.

There program is very well done but currently costs $97 per month. I\u2019ve tried them both and prefer The Renegade University. Dan",

Isn't she something, by the way?\nGwenfar's Lottie April 3, 2013 at 12:45 PM\nThank you for this piece. It says what I was wanting to articulate but was too upset to be able to.\nLuxie Ryder April 3, 2013 at 1:16 PM\nThank you for this article. I've been going blue in the face trying to counter arguments all over the internet that seem to focus on the fact he was on benefits. This man was a narcissist and a violent control freak. He suffered from entitled male attitude first and foremost and would have abused any system or person...because he felt it was his right.\nOne positive that could have been taken from this story was that it could have been used to demonstrate how many ways domestic abuse can impact on lives. As provocative as it might be to say it so soon, his wife was also his victim. Of course she did as she was told and believed in him. If he hadn't managed over the years to force her to traumatically bond with him, and substitute her own judgement for his, he wouldn't be much of an abuser, would he? There could be valuable lessons learned about how persuasive and dangerous men like him can be but, no, everyone would rather focus on the fact he was on benefits.\nHe didn't 'breed' kids for benefits - after all, not all of the 17 kids lived with him. He had them so that he had an audience...and there were more people in the world who had no choice but to worship him.\nI am just glad those poor kids will never know how their father valued his ego more than his children.\nThank you again for this article. And for the chance to have a rant of my own!\nI shouldn't be surprised, but it turns out the Fail is lying from beginning to end - the family wasn't \"on benefits\", both women worked, the only benefits they received were child benefit & tax credits, not any kind of social security payments.\nMartinOh April 4, 2013 at 8:07 PM\nWithout in any way undermining your basic point about the Daily Mail's revolting reinterpretation of events to fit its ideological position, child-related benefits including tax credits are part of social security and are usually far greater than any direct benefits that can be claimed. The majority of cases that get cited of families on comparatively high benefit income are as a result of child-related benefit and additional housing support arising from the numbers of children in the family. That said, it is impossible to support the assertion that Philpott's actions were more motivated by financial gain than a determination to maintain his dominance over his former partner and her family. This was a case of a man who cared for no-one other than himself and nothing other than the manifestation of his own power over others, who bullied, coerced and manipulated to maintain his position as the top predator in his household. Although he had no compunctions about directing his violence against other men, he seems to have particularly relished exercising what can only be described as - and this is term I use rarely - a patriarchal authority over the women and children drawn into his circle.\nYour final paragraph sums up the situation more eloquently than I could hope to; I hope its message is seen and understood widely.\nVicky Charles April 3, 2013 at 9:37 PM\nThanks for writing this. Loved it.\nHow do I follow you on Twitter? Have lost the Tweet that sent me here!\nThank you! It's @marstrina. :)\nAnia April 5, 2013 at 11:37 AM\nVery true and very sad, both your post and Women's Aid's statement.\nDomestic violence is so normalised that it takes something 'big' and 'unusual' to make the headlines. Then, however, what is talked about is anything but domestic violence: in this case, benefits scrounging.\nAdd to this a current trend of pitying the 'broken careers' of men who abuse. Bleeeeh.",

Such support is undertaken on a purely voluntary basis with the intent of the NSJC and it's membership to be active supporters within our various communities.\nCBC News video clip featuring our Severe Weather Assistance Team\nCystic Fibrosis Foundation-\nThe Canadian Cystic Fibrosis Foundation and the Stephen Russell CF Fund are charities that are near and dear to the hearts of NSJC members. In 2006, we lost a beautiful soul, Ms. Tia Aulenback, to this illness. Every year on the date of her passing we celebrate her life with a charity run. We also find ways throughout the year to honour her memory by supporting others who are continuing the battle. To date, the NSJC has donated over $2500 to this important cause.\nFeed Nova Scotia-\nFew things are more important in someone's life than food. The NSJC believes in supporting all Nova Scotians who may be unable to put food on the dinner table. Every summer, we hold a picnic, an off-roading adventure and a food drive all in support Feed Nova Scotia. We look forward to continuing this tradition for many years to come.\nAdopt-A-Highway-\nNova Scotia welcomes thousands of visitors each year and is home to almost a million people. The Adopt-A-Highway Program helps keep our province beautiful and clean. Each spring and fall, hundreds of volunteers carry out roadside clean-ups in their communities. This is a significant commitment to the environment. The NSJC is very pleased to be a part of this process, taking care of a 5 kilometre stretch of Highway 1 from exit 3 towards Sackville.\nTrail Cleanup-\nTrail cleanup is an essential part of our efforts toward long term sustainable trail use. Illegal dumping is costly for land owners to clean and difficult to enforce. NSJC members have removed tonnes of garbage and recyclables that are illegally dumped on trails. We will continue to partner with land owners whenever possible to help our environment.\nSupport The Troops-\nNSJC members are located all over this province and all come from various walks of life. We are proud to have some members who are currently serving in the Canadian Forces and many others who are retired.

The tour was quite rushed, there were many shots I wasn't able to get, but I'm happy with what I got and I'm even planning a return trip. We all know the history behind it, so I'll just get on with the pictures. This was without a shadow of a doubt the best explore I have ever done.\nSuperb set of photos - now i'm jealous. How long are you on your travels for?\nBrilliant powerful images !!!!!\nWell done mate, I know how long you've wanted this\nMorrisey - I'm not 100% sure yet. In all honesty I am tempted to spend a fortune just to get a second tour (private 2-3 day) of Pripyat. It would shorten the time I can spend backpacking but I've been away for a very long time already. The tour didn't last that long and I'd like to see more of the city if possible. If it isn't possible I am taking the train to Sevastopol on the 28th August, to Krakow on September 5th to see Auschwitz, and the 13th to see Beelitz Hospital in Germany. I should be home around October time, in theory.\nCheers boboil, yeah, it felt as if I had waited a lifetime for this moment, but it was definitely worth it. If anyone is serious about going, I'd advise them to do it right now, as I've heard talk about the Zone being closed off to tourism full stop. I've also heard news to the contrary, but Pripyat.com is in court right now with the case pressed against them, so take from that what you will. My tour with Pripyat.com was cancelled, I had to re-arrange it through TourKiev.\nThanks again for the kind comments, much appreciated.\nAwesome. that is all...\nFantastic, I have seen some of the stuff in your images on documentaries\nAmazing shots! Have seen lots of documentaries and writups about Pripyat. Would love to see it in person.",

And his aides argue that he has: they say that their communication methods differ little from those of other elected officials, and that Mr. Cuomo will preserve more documents than any of his recent predecessors.\nBut while Mr. Cuomo has taken steps to improve citizen access to the State Capitol, literally as well as digitally, he and his aides have also set up an executive chamber that prides itself on leaving few footprints.\n\u201cIt communicates a culture of \u2014 I don\u2019t know if paranoia is the right word; maybe it\u2019s control,\u201d said Bill Samuels, a Democratic activist and the founder of the New Roosevelt Initiative, a government-reform group. \u201cBut it\u2019s not healthy long-term.\u201d\nThe Cuomo administration\u2019s sensitivity to sunlight is well known. Aides in the governor\u2019s office have been warned about discussing work matters at Albany haunts. On one occasion, Mr. Cuomo\u2019s spokesman worried publicly that someone was rummaging through the office\u2019s trash. And the administration has been aggressive in redacting documents before sharing them with the public; in June, when it turned over months of Mr. Cuomo\u2019s schedules to The New York Times, even the daily weather forecast was blacked out. (The office has since pledged to release the forecasts.)",

        "raw_content": "\u2190 Prayer works\u2013or does it? Shall we ask the murdered?\nReversing Copernicus \u2192\nPosted on December 9, 2017 by Steve Caplan\nThis past week, my graduate student, my post-doctoral fellow, and I flew out to Philadelphia for the annual American Society for Cell Biology (ASCB) meeting. This 2017 meeting was my 20th year as an ASCB member, and marks 20 years since I first attended the ASCB meeting in Washington DC, 1997, when I came to present my research and simultaneously interview for post-doctoral positions.\nShuwei and Trey at their posters.\nThe ASCB meetings, while continuing to be a highlight for me, have evolved greatly along with my career. In the earlier days, the poster presentation and speeding through the enormous poster hall to visit other posters was always the most exciting part. Feedback at one\u2019s poster\u2013positive or negative\u2013was extremely helpful, and there was a certain thrill to having strangers scrutinize my work.\nToday, meetings are very different for me. First, being a cell biologist on a campus with a primary focus in cancer and other disease-related or translational research, this is my opportunity to show my younger co-workers that our field is not obsolete, and that we belong to a wider community of researchers who DO have a keen interest in our fundamental research. It\u2019s an eye-opening experience for my younger students when they attend their first meeting, and realize that there is an entire community \u201cout there\u201d that doesn\u2019t merely say \u201cnice work, but what impact does that have on cancer,\u201d and truly shows appreciation for our studies.\nIn addition, I find myself suddenly, a \u201cmere\u201d 20 years later, among the older attendees at the meeting. Clearly, ASCB is a young person\u2019s meeting, and I guess that the mean age would be at least 15 years below mine. I suppose that if I want to feel younger, I can always attend the symphony, where the average age is still safely 15 years northward of mine\u2026\nAnother intriguing thing about ASCB is that over the years, I have picked up responsibilities. As a member of the ASCB Public Policy Committee (PPC), we had a 3-hour annual meeting\u2013and while incredibly important, it unfortunately fell during the time that 3 extraordinarily great researchers were giving talks.\nEven the fabled poster sessions are no longer what they used to be. Once, as an anonymous young student who knew almost no one in the field, I could wander happily from poster to poster with no interruptions. Today, (and no complaints) I find myself being stopped dozens of times by friends, acquaintances and long-lost colleagues, often making it impossible to actually get to the next poster. But then, that becomes the purpose of these meetings, meeting old friends and chatting about science. Sometimes terrific collaborations ensue, even if I never actually make it to the next poster.\nSadly, I noticed another not-so-positive change. All ASCB meetings have traditionally been packed with exhibitors and vendors from all companies that sell scientific reagents: antibodies, inhibitors, equipment, microscopes, books, etc. Journals and the National Institutes of Health typically have booths with opportunities to meet editors and scientific liaisons. However, this time, I noticed a booth that I had never seen before: one for immigration lawyers. I am not belittling these lawyers (although lawyers do deserve belittling in general), but I have never before noticed immigration lawyers peddling their services to international scientists at this meeting. I know that perhaps this is helpful to foreign-born scientists working in the US, but to me, this was a sad sign of the times that the current administration is driving talented and good people away from the US.\nThis entry was posted in research, science, Uncategorized and tagged American Society for Cell Biology, ASCB, immigration, postdoc, posters, presentation, public policy committee, student.

        "raw_content": "Mr Abbott as class bad boy\nBy Don Aitkin - posted Friday, 3 March 2017 Sign Up for free e-mail updates!\nMr Abbott launched a book the other day, and the speech, which you can read here, instantly led to what I now think has been a media beat-up. His short address has become a further indication, for some in the media, and of course for the Labor Party, of the growing destabilising of the Government and the fragility of the Prime Minister.\nIn fact, I think that Mr Abbott\u2019s speech and its content deserve much closer reading. I should probably qualify what follows by saying that I do not agree with some of what Mr Abbott says, but he is absolutely right in reminding us that these issues are important, and that he is certainly qualified to talk about them. The ABC\u2019s political editor seemed more interested in the imagined purpose of the speech than in its content:\nThe speech he [Abbott] gave at the Making Australia Right book launch reeked of a man itching to pull the trigger on a Prime Minister he sees as spineless and lacking a moral core. His hatred is profound, his anger is deepening and his impatience is growing. His disdain for Mr Turnbull leached through every word. It was a dress rehearsal for a showdown where he will define victory as both men walking away losers.\nI wasn\u2019t there, and perhaps there was such body language. But Mr Abbott didn\u2019t mention Mr Turnbull at all. What did he actually say? First, the book, Making Australia Right, is a group of essays about where the writers think the Liberal Party and the Coalition Government should go. They are people who don\u2019t think the Government knows what to do, people who think that Labor is moving to the green left and that the Coalition has become Labor lite. In some of what I\u2019ve seen and read, that remark has been attributed to Mr Abbott as his view. It may be, but in his address he plainly says it is the view of the authors.\nMr Abbott again:\nA sense of disappointment and disillusionment pervades these essays: disappointment with the Abbott government and perhaps even despair about the Turnbull government; but what saves it from being a curmudgeon\u2019s lament is the palpable sense, in every contribution, that our party and our country can be better.\nAnd he goes on: At last year\u2019s election, 24 per cent voted for minor parties and independents, 5 per cent spoiled their ballot papers and 9 per cent didn\u2019t even turn up to vote. That\u2019s nearly 40 per cent of the electorate that couldn\u2019t bring themselves to vote for either of the two parties that have governed us for 100 years. And it\u2019s worse now. In Queensland, polls have the Coalition vote 8 percentage points down since the election and One Nation 12 percentage points up.\nMuch of what follows after that is unexceptional, it seems to me. He goes into what might be done to improve things. There is a dilemma, he says, and it is perhaps best articulated by Gary Johns, who was a Labor minister back in the days of Bob Hawke.\nThe Right believes in less taxation and less government interference in people\u2019s lives: in short, liberty. But in a world where more Australians vote for their money than work for it, and the constituency beholden to government for benefits and jobs is expanding, the constituency for winning votes with tax cuts and deregulation is diminishing. \u201cSelling stringency and insecurity\u201d says Johns, \u201cis not going to win elections\u201d. Rather, he says, \u201cthe Right have to advance a cultural debate in conjunction with the economic one\u201d.\nI agree with Johns. But what would that debate be about? I\u2019m not sure Gary Johns has nailed it:\nThe Right have to promote a discussion that has, at worst, no cost to the budget and builds a constituency. It is not a case of \u2018bread and circuses\u2019, of creating diversions, but of the necessity to build a constituency that trusts government to be less intrusive. It is a necessity to overcome the shameless bribery that all politicians indulge in, but especially the left.\nOK, but what would this discussion be about? Now here is Abbott, quoting Johns and adding a thought or two himself:",

        "raw_content": "Posted on December 3, 2017 December 4, 2017 by Bradyt21\nHow to wisely spend your time in college to do well in classes\nBy Brady Thomas\nWhen many people get out of high school, they normally believe that they are prepared for anything that college will throw at them. They think that what they learned in high school gave them the proper knowledge to study and learn properly. However, students typically and very quickly find that college is much more different and difficult than what they encountered in high school.\nWhen students begin college, they believe that it will be easier because they do not have class all day, five days a week, like they did in high school. This extra time should be used to complete school-related tasks such as studying, reading course material, or even working on homework. However, most students do not do that. Many college freshmen become caught up in playing video games, watching Netflix, or the ever popular, taking naps. These conflicts of interest can be dangerous because it is typically expected that college students should spend two to three hours outside of class working on course material for every hour they spend in class.\nHowever, because coursework can be difficult and stressful, one tends to avoid it and participate in more activities that they find fun and relaxing. By spending more time away from their assignments, students do not complete them in a timely manner and their coursework accumulates. When this occurs, students begin to feel overwhelmed, stressed, and may feel like their brain cannot store or remember any more information because they are trying to take in so much at one time. This is where working memory comes in to play.\nWorking memory is described as the brain\u2019s conductor. \u201cWorking memory involves the conscious processing and managing of information required to carry out complex cognitive tasks such as learning, reasoning, and comprehension\u201d (1). Unlike long term memory, which involves the large amount of information one saves in their lifetime, working memory is the small amount of information that is kept in one\u2019s mind and used in performing cognitive tasks (2). It is used in storing a small amount of information in a readily available form that aids in planning, understanding, reading, and problem solving (2).\nIn the 1970s and 1980s, Alan Baddeley, a British psychologist, and his colleagues created a model for working memory to explain how it works. This model uses information on how the brain accepts sensory input, processes visual-spatial and verbal data, and accesses long-term memory. They also included a function of the brain in their model that they called the central executive which process all of the inputs to the brain (1) and gives those inputs to two subsystems called the phonological loop and the visuo-spatial sketchpad (3).\nThe central executive is a function of the brain that monitors and coordinates inputs and chooses which information is most important for one to focus on. It sends these inputs to one of two subsystems, the visuo-spatial sketchpad or the phonological loop. The visuo-spatial sketchpad is also known as the inner eye. This sketchpad stores and processes information into a visual form. The Phonological loop, on the other hand, deals with verbal and written material. The Phonological loop consists of two parts, the phonological store, also known as the inner ear, and the articulatory control process, which is also called the inner voice (4).\nThe main part of the brain that working memory occurs in along with some of the cognitive processes that power the central executive function is the prefrontal cortex. This is known because researchers have found an increase in activity of the prefrontal cortex when people are engaged in thinking and problem solving that uses working memory (1).\nThe hippocampus and Broca\u2019s area are two other areas of the brain that aid in working memory. The hippocampus is involved in one-term memory, spatial navigation, and spatial memory. The Broca\u2019s area can be found on the left side of the frontal lobes and is used in speech production and language processing (1).\nAs a college student, it is important to understand what working memory is and how to use it to process new information that one may see or hear in class, in a text book, or on assignments. Fortunately, it is possible to improve working memory and help to activate and enhance the central executive function so that all of the new and confusing information college students may encounter is easier to understand.\nA few ways to increase working memory is to repeat information, visualize it, or teach it. Repetition can be used by repeating a piece of information after an instructor says it or by trying to paraphrase the words of an instructor or textbook into more simpler terms that one can understand better. Also, by learning to picture an important diagram or parts of a math reading problem, one can recall that information much faster and demonstrate an increased working memory function. Last, one can teach other students while studying or participate in learning groups in order to apply their working memory and improve their learning experience (1).\nHowever, no matter how much information one tries to contain in their working memory, there is, unfortunately, a capacity to it (5). It is believed that the capacity is four to five pieces of information at any one time and it only last around ten seconds (6). In relation to this capacity, one needs to be careful for cognitive load, \u201cthe total amount of mental activity imposed on working memory in any one instant\u201d (6).\nTherefore, working memory load comes down to time and practice. This practice can come from looking over notes, making flash cards, studying with friends, or trying to paraphrase the content of one\u2019s books or notes. Another tip that helps towards bettering one\u2019s working memory is scheduling enough time to study without any forms of distraction. When one plans to spend a certain amount of time studying each day, they are less likely to cram in information, take in too much at one time, and experience cognitive load. Now go increase your working memory while limiting cognitive load and conquer your first college exam.\n1.)Wilson, D. (2015, February 12). Put working memory to work in learning. [Web log post].

This situation brings to mind a song by the sixties' folk-rock team, Simon and Garfunkle: \"Silent Night/5:00 News.\" One speaker emits a beautiful duet of the Christmas carol \"Silent Night,\" while the other blares out the worst news you can imagine from the height of the Vietnam War era. I don't think Paul Simon intended to praise \"Jesus, Lord, at thy birth.\" Rather, I think he intended to mock Christians, to show them up as unrealistic dreamers who indulge in wishful thinking while the world goes to hell. In any case, he powerfully illustrated the very reason why the Son of God did appear. He came because of the bad news! God says that \"the reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the works of the devil\" (1 John 3:8).\nThe Son of God Appeared...\nThe United States of America was recently assaulted by the most awesome terror in generations. The terrorist attacks of September 11 not only killed thousands of people, but created serious disruptions in transportation, communications, the economy, general freedoms, and who knows what other elements of our life. Bill Shishko, an Orthodox Presbyterian pastor on Long Island, writing of those events, said that the emotions in the aftermath ran the same gamut as they do in the unexpected death of a loved one. First there was shock. Then anger set in. Then the realization of the chaos of changed relationships dawned and grew to be overwhelming. Recent polls have indicated that two-thirds of Americans felt depressed after the tragedies.\nWe saw and heard and felt the shock, anger, and grief of our countrymen. Anger was expressed in threats of retaliation and revenge. Sadness was felt for the thousands who lost husbands, wives, parents, children, and friends in New York and Washington. Tears were brought to Mr. Shishko's eyes when he met a schoolgirl whose parents both worked in the top stories of the World Trade Center. We share the sorrow of thousands in similar situations. Let us be quick to share people's sadness and grief. Read more\nWhatever one may think of Advent and Christmas, at this time of year people's thoughts do turn, in some fashion, to Christ's coming into the world. That often affords Christians an opportunity to \"give a defense to everyone who asks you a reason for the hope that is in you\" (1 Pet. 3:15). Particularly in the aftermath of the horrible events of September 11, this Christmas season may offer us a fresh occasion to speak to family, friends, and colleagues about the hope that we have in Jesus Christ and why his incarnation and atonement were absolutely necessary for our salvation.\nIn the face of such glaring sin, the need for the person and work of Christ is so evident. If sinners ever hope to approach the holy God, they can do so only through the atoning work of the one mediator between God and man. God tells us to make the most of every opportunity (Col. 4:5), and the recent crisis, together with the opportunities that often arise at this season of the year, furnishes us with an excellent occasion to speak the truth in love. Let us then consider the apologetical and witnessing opportunities that we now have. Read more\nEven without a glance at the calendar, or the presence of turkey leftovers, it's obvious that December 1 has arrived for the Doe family. The children's love for one another has become easy to observe. There is shouting only when one child is eager to share with another an exciting secret of the season. Each child does more than his or her part to make the household run smoothly. Steve and I are patiently planning enjoyable family times together, while we finish the last of the Christmas cards and prepare to mail our lovingly chosen gifts to our relatives. The house fills with the fragrance of sugar cookies and with the sound of Christmas carols as all six of us decorate our freshly cut tree....\nThank you for not laughing\u0097at least, not too much. But how many of you haven't, at some time in your life, had a similar fantasy for the holiday season? The reality of our lives always falls far short of what we desire.

        "raw_content": "Why Germany Is Betting on Trade With China\nAn investment push is bringing the countries closer together in spite of \u2014 and because of \u2014 rising trade tensions with the U.S.\nThe German Center for Industry and Trade in Shanghai\nWhen Sabine Herold opened a new Shanghai facility in September, the milestone for her tiny Bavarian glue maker was the culmination of 14 years of careful development \u2014 and a sign of how deep and wide commercial ties between Germany and China have become.\nPiling into China with Bosch drills, Mercedes-Benz cars and Siemens turbines has made the Asian country Germany\u2019s largest business partner for the past two years. Total trade between the two reached $179 billion in 2017, double the U.K.\u2019s level and triple that of France. Germany\u2019s special status became clear in July, when BASF SE announced a $10 billion plant in Guangdong province \u2014 the first large manufacturing site in China entirely owned by a foreign chemicals maker. Now, BMW AG is plowing $4.1 billion into its Chinese joint venture, taking advantage of a new policy to let foreign companies take majority control of their local partnerships.\n\u201cThe development in China is so unbelievably fast,\u201d said Herold, managing partner and part owner of Delo Industrie Klebstoffe GmbH, which makes specialty adhesives for smart cards, automotive sensors, and mobile-phone speakers and needs to carefully choose its niches as it vies with giants like DowDuPont Inc., 3M Corp. and Henkel AG.\nSabine Herold, center, cuts the ribbon.\nThe fact a company like Delo \u2014 with 750 employees and annual revenue of $184 million \u2014 can thrive in China\u2019s highly regulated, complex economy shows how successful Germany has been in prying open the market. That\u2019s thanks to decades of focused effort by corporate heavyweights, support from Chancellor Angela Merkel and a unique network of local development centers, where Delo found its footing before branching out on its own.\nGerman companies are bolstered by institutions such as the country\u2019s Center for Industry and Trade in Shanghai. Like its sister sites in Beijing and the port city of Taicang, the center provides a launching pad for Germany&apos;s small exporters, offering administrative services and informal consultation on issues from licensing to human resources.\nThe three centers, funded by state-backed banks called Landesbanken, are home to almost 300 companies, up from about 200 in 2015. They range from tiny startups to mid-sized enterprises such as headphone maker Sennheiser Electronic, brewer Bitburger and the country\u2019s soccer champions Bayern Munich.\n\u2018Safety Net\u2019\n\u201cGerman companies want to have a \u2018safety net\u2019 when going abroad,\u201d Christian Sommer, head of the Shanghai site since 2005, said in his office, decorated with plaques recognizing his contributions to German-Chinese relations. \u201cIf you make a mistake in China, it can have an impact at headquarters back in Germany.\u201d\nThe facilities aren\u2019t just appealing for German companies. Dozens of Chinese cities and regions have lobbied for their own centers, according to Sommer, who envisions as many as 10 new locations to help German businesses push into second- and third-tier cities.\nThe Shanghai location \u2014 where Delo had an office until a few weeks ago \u2014 opened in 1994 on the campus of Tongji University, which traces its roots back to a German medical school in the early 1900s. Today, the center occupies an eight-story compound in the city\u2019s technology hub, with 30,000 square meters of office space and four eateries, including a traditional German bakery.\nThe Shanghai German Center\nDelo has relocated to a three-story building in Shanghai\u2019s bustling Zhangjiang Hi-Tech Park \u2014 home to regional headquarters of multinationals such as Siemens AG and General Electric Co. The glue maker quadrupled the size of its previous space, including its biggest lab outside its headquarters in the rural pasture land near Munich. What was once a one-man operation now employs more than 30 people and accounts for almost a third of the company\u2019s global sales.\n\u201cWhen China succeeds, we\u2019ll be proud to be part of it,\u201d Herold said at a ribbon-cutting ceremony, where about 100 guests were served German specialties such as sausage, sauerkraut and pretzels as well as stir-fried lotus roots with yam and peppers. \u201cThis is the right time to be here.\u201d\nAn important draw for the Germans is President Xi Jinping\u2019s Belt and Road Initiative, which aims to create an economic zone linking Asia with Europe, the Middle East and Africa. While German business leaders see the plan as a potential challenge to the post-war order, it\u2019s a chance they can hardly pass up.\nChina\u2019s modern-day adaptation of the Silk Road aims to revive, and extend, the ancient routes\nSource: Belt and Road Portal, China&apos;s National Development and Reform Commission\n\u201cIf the Western world doesn\u2019t get its act together in how it designs free trade,\u201d China could snub the international system and turn Belt and Road into \u201cthe new WTO,\u201d Joe Kaeser, chief executive officer of German engineering giant Siemens, told Bloomberg TV. \u201cWe need to be very mindful about what we deal with here.\u201d\nWhile the ties offer tantalizing opportunities in a country of 1.4 billion consumers that\u2019s shifting from low-cost manufacturing into higher-end technology, Germany\u2019s export-driven economy faces risks as U.S. President Donald Trump steps up his trade war with China. That was evident in Berlin on Thursday when the country lowered its growth forecasts for the next two years, citing \u201cexternal\u201d weakness. The trade uncertainty comes on top of the perils of Chinese government subsidies to state-owned companies and partners siphoning off know-how.\n\u201cThe growing dependence on China is a delicate balancing act,\u201d said Juergen Mallon, a professor at the University of Applied Sciences in Kiel. \u201cThere&apos;s huge opportunities, but also risks.\u201d\nWhile Merkel has traveled to the country 11 times in her 13 years in power, usually with an entourage of corporate executives, relations are complex, and her government has begun to push back over concerns about efforts to co-opt German technology.\nIn 2015, the country introduced a program it calls \u201cMade in China 2025,\u201d which effectively seeks to supplant Germany as the world\u2019s leader in advanced manufacturing. Since the plan was presented, Chinese investors have spent more than $26 billion acquiring German companies such as robot maker Kuka AG and KraussMaffei Group, a Munich producer of plastic injection-molding equipment.\nChinese takeovers of German companies\nGermany is responding by scrutinizing foreign deals more closely and this summer blocked an attempted Chinese takeover for the first time. Citing security risks, Merkel&apos;s administration in August scuppered the purchase of precision engineering firm Leifeld Metal Spinning AG. A few days earlier, the government snapped up a 20 percent stake in power-grid operator 50Hertz Transmission GmbH, thwarting the advances of a Chinese investor.\nDespite the political caution, German businesses are unfazed.

        "raw_content": "Cricket South Africa announces International Marquee Players for the new \u201d #T20 GLOBAL DESTINATION LEAGUE \u201c\nNew Delhi: CRICKET SOUTH AFRICA (CSA) today named the eight international marquee players who will be representing the various franchises in the first two years of the #T20 Global Destination League which gets underway later this year.\nThe eight international marquee players will be entered into a mini-draft with the highest bidding franchise owner having first pick and the rest following the same process. Franchise owners will be asked to consider the fact that some of these players, by virtue of having played for some years in South Africa, already hold strong ties to certain cities in South Africa.\nEach franchise team will also be allocated a Proteas marquee player.\nThe marquee international players who have agreed playing league contracts with CSA, are:\n1) Dwayne Bravo (West Indies)\n2) Chris Gayle (West Indies)\n3) Lasith Malinga (Sri Lanka)\n4) Brendon McCullum (New Zealand)\n5) Eoin Morgan (England)\n6) Kevin Pietersen (England)\n7) Kieron Pollard (West Indies)\n8) Jason Roy (England)\n\u201cWe are thrilled by the calibre of the top eight international players we have lined up to participate in our new #T20 Global Destination League,\u201d commented CSA Chief Executive, Haroon Lorgat. \u201cThey are all stars in their own right and will add great value to the franchise teams they will represent.\n\u201cThis top-quality list of players will set a high standard for our tournament. With each one of them a household name in the world of cricket, we can certainly look forward to some enthralling contests that will grip the imagination of fans in South Africa and around the globe,\u201d Mr. Lorgat added.\n\u201cComing from four different continents, these players confirm the global interest we have already seen. No doubt this will grow as other international stars register their interest to participate in our new #T20 League. The high level of interest from players and sponsors to participate in our league is proof of the great attraction of South Africa as a global destination. This is indeed very exciting for the country,\u201d added Mr. Lorgat.\nKevin Pietersen commented: \u201cI am delighted to have signed for the new #T20 Global Destination league in South Africa. South Africa, as everyone knows, is very close to my heart. So being a part of something innovative in their cricketing structure really excites me. I am sure the fans will support this wonderful creation which will showcase a lot of the world\u2019s best players.\u201d\nChris Gayle commented: \u201cI look forward to returning to South Africa as I have very happy memories of my time there. This included scoring the first ever century in T20 International cricket when the inaugural ICC World Twenty20 was held in South Africa in 2007.\u201d\nBrendon McCullum commented: \u201cI very much enjoy the conditions in South Africa and it was an easy decision to make myself available for this tournament. I enjoy the way South Africans play the game and the way their fans interact with the players as well.\u201d\nPrevious articleVodafone Superfan From Bhubaneshwar Goes Centrestage at VIVO IPL Match In Mumbai\nNext articleNeetu Chandra announces 4th edition of Sandip Soparrkar\u2019s \u201cIndia Dance Week\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba and Russian technology group Mail.ru on Tuesday said they would launch a joint e-commerce venture in Russia and former Soviet countries.\nThe deal comes as e-commerce is developing rapidly in Russia though hindered by the country\u2019s vast size and problematic infrastructure, including an often unreliable postal service.\nThe two groups, along with the Russian sovereign wealth fund RDIF and telecom operator MegaFon, announced the creation of a \u201cstrategic partnership\u201d as Russia hosts an economic forum in the far eastern city of Vladivostok.\nAlibaba and Mail.ru said in a statement that the partnership will \u201claunch a leading social commerce joint venture in Russia and the CIS (Commonwealth of Independent States).\u201d\nThe new company will be called AliExpress Russia \u2014 based on the name of an existing Alibaba platform.\nIt will be 48 percent owned by Alibaba, 24 percent by MegaFon, 15 percent by Mail.ru and 13 percent by the RDIF, the statement said, without disclosing any valuations involved.\nRussia\u2019s RBK media group reported that the RDIF would invest up to $300 million. The deal involves MegaFon selling Alibaba its 10 percent stake in Mail.ru.\nAlibaba, co-founded by tech billionaire Jack Ma in 1999, reported revenues of $39.9 billion for the year ending March.\nIt already plays a major role in e-commerce in Russia through its AliExpress and Tmall platforms.\nMa announced Monday that he will step down as head of Alibaba in a year\u2019s time.\nOn Tuesday Ma attended a meeting of international business people with President Vladimir Putin at the Eastern Economic Forum in Vladivostok, but was not at the press conference announcing the deal.\n\u201cWe want this to be a Russian business,\u201d Alibaba Group president Michael Evans said at the press conference.\n\u201cWhat we we bring from China is all the experience that we have and the technology that we have\u201d from building e-commerce, cloud and payment businesses, Evans said.\n\u2013 \u2018Breakthrough for Russia\u2019 \u2013\nKirill Dmitriyev, general director of the RDIF, said the Russian partners would have a combined 52 percent percent share in the new structure.\nHe said the platform will use Russian payment systems and give local businesses access to more than 600 million Alibaba users around the world.\nMail.ru, whose assets include Russia\u2019s most popular social media network VK, is controlled by Kremlin-friendly billionaire Alisher Usmanov, who until last month owned a minority stake in Britain\u2019s Arsenal football club.\nIn 2017 Mail.ru launched a platform called Pandao selling Chinese goods to Russian consumers. This will now become part of AliExpress Russia.\nUsmanov was quoted as saying in a statement that the new partnership is a \u201csignificant step for the digital transformation of the Russian economy.\u201d\nMail.ru\u2019s CEO Boris Dobrodeyev said at the press conference on Tuesday that the deal will give the other partners access to the group\u2019s more than 100 million users, hailing this as a \u201cbreakthrough for Russia\u2019s digital economy\u201d.\nThe deal comes after Russia\u2019s largest consumer bank Sberbank and internet company Yandex announced an e-commerce tie-up in August, with the bank set to invest around $500 million in Yandex\u2019s internet marketplace platform Yandex.Market.

The plot revolves around a conquest of space. There are a lot of sex jokes and innuendo.\nPowers has been cryogenically preserved and wakes up in the 1990s, discovering that the same problems are present \u2013 but several people had grown older, especially Number Two, now, Robert Wagner, but Austin time travels back to the 1960s where Number Two is Rob Lowe. However, Mendy Stirling is just the same, as is Michael York\u2019s Basil, Austin\u2019s controller.\nIn this film, Austin\u2019s wife, Vanessa, turns out to be a robot \u2013 as if Elizabeth Hurley could be a robot. This time he makes contact with Heather Graham and she shares all his adventures.\nThis is also the film in which Mini-me was introduced, played by the Verne Troyer, a smaller version of Dr Evil. however, Dr Evil\u2019s son, despises his father, continually tries to undermine him.\nAlso introduced this in this film is Fat Bastard, again played by Mike Myers, a gross out Scotsman who also has sex on his mind and his gross body.\nThe film veers between the 1960s and its permissive style, Carnaby Street et cetera, and the slightly more sober 1990s.\nA number of cameos and movie references.\nThe film is principally for those who enjoyed the first film \u2013 and their enjoyment was added to with Austin Powers in Goldmember, three years later.",

        "raw_content": "Not that long ago, I served on a public body which was seeking further independent members to serve on scrutiny panels.\nOne person who put himself forward already served on a police monitoring body. He was clearly energised by his expectation that the expression of a particular public view should result in policy change by the Chief Constable.\nWhat, I asked, if the Chief Constable was to react by producing evidence for the panel as to why the grass-roots view was understandable but in fact likely to be misguided? I\u2019m there to express the view of the public, he insisted, and I\u2019d expect police policy to respond to that.\nAt the time, I thought the position he took to be incomprehensible. I didn\u2019t understand how the others seeking to recruit new members of our scrutiny panels didn\u2019t automatically rule him out of consideration on the spot.\nA few years later now, I can see that this was my first encounter with a world then alien to me but into which we have since moved. With hindsight it is clear that he was the future and I was the past. What I thought was a strange outlier was in fact the first wetting of a turned tide.\nHis common sense was no longer to be patronised by my sophistry. The opinions he found widely shared were no longer to be ignored, let alone be in danger of being lumped together with those judged as bigoted or prejudiced.\nPretence at expertise was quickly to become derided as the misguided habits of a discredited liberal elite in a self deluded politically correct bubble \u2013 now a mainstream rather than extreme position.\nA commentator on Radio 4's Start the Week on 15th May summed the shift up as one in which the test is now 'emotional resonance not verification' and spoke of 'arguments which reinforce what you feel rather than seeking clarity by claim and counter claim'. [Paragraph added 16th May]\nParty political strategists have, of course, been on to this long before the shape of the new world became clear to the likes of me. For many years, much election and referendum campaigning has been targeted on relating to popular perception rather than seeking to engage in extended reasoning.\nBeing that as it is, I\u2019ve set myself a small task to think about what the implications of this are for the church. I\u2019ve hardly got anywhere yet, but one parallel must be the way the holders of both fundamentalist and secular certainties are clear they will not be patronised any longer either.\nMeanwhile, among the many things I\u2019ve suddenly begun to get round to doing, I have this week reattached Jackie Davis' plaque to the memorial cross on his grave - eight years after I promised myself I\u2019d do it.",

The sources of the estimated $63-$65 billion dollars supporting print, online and broadcast news have also shifted, with advertising dollars declining and audience payments, in the form of subscriptions, for example, comprising a bigger share. In addition, non-traditional revenue, such as digital marketing services and event hosting\u2014which was minimal in 2006\u2014has quadrupled, even though it remains a small piece of the pie.\nAudience payments grew by 50% in the last 7 years and now account for 24% of total income. This is already a respectable slice, and as I wrote in January, I see knowledgeables further-gnawing at the market share of big, \u201ctraditional,\u201d news organizations.\nIn fact, as this happens, I believe we\u2019ll see the third source of revenue explode: \u201cDigital marketing and event hosting,\u201d as Pew calls it, account for 8% of total income, 400% more than in 2006. For the naked eye these terms may seem a little ambiguous, but really they are a convenient misnomer for an unfortunate epidemic: We\u2019ll sponsor your yearly conference, and you\u2019ll coincidentally decide the first or second spot in the agenda should be a speech by our influential CEO.\nThe above, and what some call \u201cnative advertising,\u201d are going to make up the other (ugly) side of the future of information.",

        "raw_content": "\u00ab Rethinking, Reclaiming, and Remaining Compassionately Pink\nResearch on Metastatic Breast Cancer: \u201cTrying to Stay Alive on Two Percent\u201d \u00bb\nBy Rachel Cheetham Moro, on February 9th, 2011\nPink Ribbon Blues is pleased to republish the third essay about Komen\u2019s financial situation by Anna Rachnel, titled \u201cKomen By The Numbers: Education In Focus.\u201d The essay was first published on February 9, 2011 on her blog, The Cancer Culture Chronicles.\nAs a woman, do you remember when you first became aware of the importance of being vigilant about your health? I\u2019m forty years old now, but I feel like I\u2019ve always known. I grew up in Australia, and went to high school in the 1980\u2019s where we had a very strong health and sex education curriculum. I think this where I must have learned about checking for abnormalities in my breasts as well as the importance of regular cervical cancer screenings. I also seem to recall my primary care doctor giving me a lesson on how to check my breasts and being a very good student, I listened and religiously checked myself and also went for my regular Pap tests.\nThis knowledge served me well when I noticed, through self-examination, a difference in one of my breasts back in 2004 when I was thirty-three. Not a lump; nothing really obvious; just different. And that was when the real battle began. Because I didn\u2019t have an obvious lump, presented no apparent risk factors and initial tests were inconclusive, I was waved away by my medical practitioner at the time and told to seek \u201cbreast massage\u201d as a possible therapy for my imaginary problem. (See my post \u201cHow Did I Get Here?\u201d for the unbelievable story of my initial diagnosis). After deciding that I would follow my intuition that something was wrong, I sought a second opinion. Well the rest, as they say, is history and here I am today at forty years old blogging about my experiences as a woman living with metastatic breast cancer.\nI\u2019ve often wondered though what led me to be so intuitive about my body? Was it the health and sex education that I received in high school? Was it that good? Was it the doctor I had seen throughout my teens and early twenties who instilled in me this sense of vigilance? And what kind of medical education did that nurse practitioner receive, that led her to wave me away that day despite my protestations? Me, a person who at the time had presented with StageIIIA breast cancer, despite absolutely no risk factors?\nBut that\u2019s the problem with breast cancer education isn\u2019t it? Because the nature of this disease is that we don\u2019t really know when and who it\u2019s going to strike next. Without proven research behind it, breast cancer education is a minefield of uncertain efficacy and a haphazard business of unproven conjecture.\nYet public education is a popular mission for many of our breast cancer charities. If the goal is to educate, it\u2019s a relatively easy mission to fulfill. Produce educational resources \u2013 mission accomplished. But it\u2019s an expensive undertaking, even though it\u2019s not necessarily helping to reduce breast cancer incidence.\nA Closer Look At Komen\u2019s Education Program\nContinuing my series of investigations into the activities of our nation\u2019s largest breast cancer fundraiser, Susan G. Komen for the Cure\u00ae (\u201cKomen\u201d), in this post I shine the spotlight on Komen\u2019s Education program. (Previous posts in this series are available at \u201cKomen By The Numbers\u201d and \u201cKomen By The Numbers: The Context of Research\u201d.)\nFor the financial year ended March 31st, 2009, the Komen organization earned some $331.3 million in total Net Public Support and Other Revenue. The following chart highlights how the $331.3 million was spent both in dollar terms and expressed as a percentage of Net Public Support and Other Revenue.\nThe Education program received the highest allocation of $135.5 million, or 41% of total Net Public Support and Other Revenue; in fact, its highest annual percentage allocation for the six-year period from 2004 to 2009. The Research program received only $70.1 million, or 21% of total Net Public Support and Other Revenue; indeed its lowest annual percentage allocation for the six-year period from 2004 to 2009. (For further information on how Komen\u2019s program spending has changed over time, please refer to \u201cKomen By The Numbers: The Context of Research\u201d).\nKomen\u2019s position on their funding priorities are clear, as corporate spokesperson, Andrea Rader stated on Alicia Staley\u2019s recent blog post.\nOnce women are educated, they need screening at the appropriate time. And if they\u2019re diagnosed, they need access to care, where treatments developed through research can help them. Many women and men also need some help getting through their treatment, and they need someone fighting for them.\nThat\u2019s why we fund all of it: research, education, screening, treatment programs and advocacy work.\u201d\nAnd it\u2019s true, Komen does fund all of it. But $135.5 million for Education? Almost double the amount allocated to the Research program? $135.5 million sure seems like a lot of money. How much of this figure is actually spent on Education?\nAfter reviewing Komen\u2019s audited financial statements, and the Education program allocations for each of the six years from 2004-2009, I produced table summaries (attached at the bottom of this post), which show how Komen spent each year\u2019s Education program allocation.\nIn reading the tables below and summarized in the following chart, consider the following example. In 2009, from an Education program allocation of $135.5 million, Komen made actual education awards and grants of $46.7 million or 34% of the total Education allocation. Other notable expenses included $11.6 million on Salaries; $13.6 million on Professional fees (generally includes legal and accounting fees); $6.1 million on Production expenses for Race for The Cure; $4.9 million on Printing and Publications; $2.9M on Postage and Shipping; $2.5M om Travel; $1.5M on Conferences and remaining operating expenses totaling $45.4M million. To summarize, actual Education grants accounted for 34% of the Education allocation of $135.5 million. Education program operating expenses accounted for 66% of the Education allocation of $135.5 million.\nIndeed for the entire six year period from 2004-2009, the average percentage spent on actual Education awards and grants was only 37% of the total Education allocation, with the remaining 63% spent on Education program operating expenses.\nWhat does Education Entail?\nThe ostensibly high Eduction program operating expenses may be partially explained if Komen is producing much of its Education material and programs in-house which might include brochures, audio-visual resources, other breast cancer educational information, upkeep of the Komen website, in addition to awarding grants to outside organizations.\nRelevant to its Education program, Komen\u2019s 2009 Annual Report states:\nMore that 3 million print and audio-visual educational materials with life-saving messages were distributed to Affiliates, grantees and the general public in 2009.\nIn the first quarter of the year, our breast health messages reached 4 million people through Anuncio, a service providing patient education in English and Spanish in doctors\u2019 offices, malls and in most HEB pharmacies in south Texas communities near Houston, College Station and Austin. This year, they\u2019ve expanded their reach to include Atlanta markets.\nOur Breast Care Helpline staff answered about 3,000 calls and 300 emails during just one quarter of 2009.\nIn less than six months, more than 80,000 fact sheets have been downloaded from the Understanding Breast Cancer section of our Web site, komen.org.\nKomen provides only limited discussion of its Education program in its 2009 Annual Report, so it is difficult to say with any precision whether the Education program operating expenses are reasonable or exactly what kinds of educational activities are being funded. It is possible to search Komen\u2019s website for domestic affiliate grants, however grant classifications and amounts are not specified. (Click here to see an affiliate grant keyword search of \u201c2009\u201d).\nThere is clearly no debate that Komen is fulfilling it\u2019s priority to \u201ceducate\u201d the public about breast cancer. But I have to question whether the $135.5 million Komen spent on its Education program in 2009 represents value for money for it\u2019s many, many donors.\nAfter all, we can educate about apparent risk factors; so-called prevention measures like exercise, healthy diet, lifestyle factors and so on, but for so many women who have been diagnosed, these factors do not sufficiently explain their breast cancers. We can educate on the advantages of early detection, but there is no medical certainty that a woman won\u2019t experience recurrence or metastasis in the near or far future. We can educate about the importance of self-examinations and mammograms, yet these screening methods are no guarantee that a breast cancer tumor will be detected. We can educate women about available treatments, but this is no substitute for game-changing research and the scientific facts that women need in making decisions about their treatment options. Research is still lacking in all of these areas. We are educating the public about a disease that has no cure and for which our knowledge is still extremely limited.\nWhy does Komen continue to pour money into breast cancer education and awareness programs, at ever-increasing rates and at the expense of research which could potentially alter the course of our breast cancer epidemic? Why we do have hundreds of breast cancer organizations producing the same educational information, all incurring their own costs in doing so, and decreasing the overall funding pool available for potentially life-saving research? When are our nation\u2019s largest breast cancer fundraisers going to realize this duplication of efforts with respect to education is, quite simply, a colossal waste of money? When are our breast cancer fundraisers going to realize the economic synergies of sharing and integrating their Education programs?\nI\u2019m not saying that breast cancer education isn\u2019t an important facet in dealing with this disease epidemic. But all the education in the world is never going to provide us with a cure or the kinds of treatments that will allow us to live long and productive lives. I\u2019m simply questioning whether there is a better and more economically efficient way for our breast cancer charities to fulfill their breast cancer education missions.\nFor that to happen there needs to be a spirit of cooperation and a common goal that is neutral to the spoils of corporate partnerships, sponsorships and other business incentives. The $542.5 million spent by Komen on its Education program from 2004-2009 sure is a lot of money for us to be getting our priorities wrong with respect to this disease.\nPage 1 of 2: Financial Years 2004-2006\nPage 2 of 2: Financial Years 2007-2009 and total for 2004-2009.\n2 comments to Komen By The Numbers: Education In Focus\nGlad you\u2019ve posted this Gayle.\nAnna, this work you\u2019re doing on Komen\u2019s accounts is deeply impressive and important. Giving us a very clear picture, not just of how a big cancer charity operates. But also of where all that money that all those people run, walk and dress up for actually goes. If significant portions of these resources you\u2019re showing us could truly go into research on prevention and eduction on prevention, them imagine what we could achieve, in the US and here in Europe.\nWe achieve nothing without this sort of data, so thank you using your immense skills for analysis so brilliantly.\n[\u2026] Komen By The Numbers (26.01.2011) Komen By The Numbers: The Context of Research (31.01. 2011) Komen By The Numbers: Education in Focus (09. 02.2011) Komen By The Numbers: 2010 And Still No Answers (19.03. 2011) Factoids, [\u2026]",

It is not uncommon to have financing for this.\nSave time and Request an auto title loan online now\nYou may not be surprised that the car loan is a popular loan. Most people do not have enough money to pay for a car in one go. With a car loan, you can borrow 100 to 110% of the purchase price. Almost half of all car purchases are financed with car loan Online at BridgePayday \u2013 just use your title. This development offers a wide range of car loans. A car loan often has a lower interest rate than another type of loan and is also well suited to your personal situation. This loan form can be used for the purchase of both a new and second-hand car. In addition to the passenger car, caravans and motorcycles are often also eligible for a car loan. You can also choose to take out an ordinary personal loan for the purchase of a car, but you are likely to be much more expensive. It is not for nothing that a specific loan has been created for the purchase of cars. The lender does have the right to reclaim the car when you are unable to pay the car loan. An ordinary personal loan does not require a guarantee or right of pledge on the car. This means, however, that the lender has less certainty that you will repay the full loan amount. Because of this risk, which is not the case with a car loan, an ordinary personal loan is a much more expensive form of loan for buying a car. It is in all cases much more interesting and sensible to take out a car loan for the purchase of your car.\nThe course of a car loan\nIt often happens that borrowers have an unclear picture or insufficient knowledge of the loan they want to take out. It is certainly advisable to ensure that you have sufficient information before taking out a loan. The car loan can be described as a standard loan that always has the same course. It is an installment loan, so you will not be faced with unpleasant surprises. When you take out a car loan, the lender will pay the full amount to you in one go. You then repay a part of the loan amount each month. In most cases, this loan form uses a fixed interest rate. This allows you to easily estimate how the price of your loan is developing. Characteristic of this form of loan is that lenders place a pledge on the car. As previously mentioned, this will ensure that the cost of your loan is low.\nCalculate car loan\nThe range of car loans is large and you profit as a consumer by comparing different providers. This way you can close the loan that is most favorable to you. Of course, you would also like to know in advance what your possible car loan looks like. A tool to trace this is the so-called car loan simulation. By using this you can quickly and easily find out whether a certain car loan is beneficial for you. Performing such a calculation is free and without obligation. You are therefore not obliged after a trial calculation to conclude a car loan with the relevant party. You have to take into account that the outcome of a car loan simulator is indicative. Although it is an indicative price, it is in most cases that this price is close to reality. This often involves small differences and this makes the use of a car loan simulation absolutely not superfluous.\nYou always have to deal with a credit agreement for a loan. In theory, it is always possible to adjust the content of this agreement. If you do not do this, you agree to the basic agreement. This usually means that you can count on a low cost of your loan. If you wish to change the content and do not agree with the basic agreement, this will affect the cost price. This also applies to the car loan, which is cheap thanks to the guarantee from the lender. The agreement stipulates that in the event of default, the car can be seized. A car loan is affordable thanks to this guarantee. Suppose that you would remove this condition in the credit agreement, this means a direct increase in the cost price.\nDuration and interest\nThe term of your car loan is a condition that is flexible. You decide the duration of a car loan yourself, but it is advisable to limit it as much as possible. You keep the costs lower when the term is short. Paying a car loan for 5 or 8 years makes quite a difference. In general, you can say: the longer the term of your car loan, the more expensive you are. This makes the term an important factor when taking out a car loan. Another important factor to watch out for is interest. Due to the presence of a guarantee with car loans, this loan form has a cheap interest rate. In general, interest rates on car loans are below 10%. However, the interest differs per provider and some providers distinguish between new and second-hand cars. Therefore, always compare different providers with each other to find the car loan that best suits your expectations and wishes.\nClosing the car loan\nDo you have a car in mind, but is the financing the only thing that stops you? Then close your car loan with one of the providers. Of course, you can first compare providers and calculate your car loan via the car loan simulator. After that, it is only a question of choosing and before you know it you drive in that beautiful car.",

        "title": "GETTING THE WORD OUT: December 2015",
        "raw_content": "Week of: December 28, 2015 pmcrawford1@gmail.com\nAs we wrap up 2015 it has certainly been a year of both personal joy and corporate sadness for me. Like no other time in my history on this earth; I am watching my country America, transition from One Nation Under God to One Nation Under Self. The passage of gay marriage, the continued disrespect of human life through abortion and laws in some states that now make it ok for you to take your own life; and the constant assertion of \"my rights,\" is clearly setting the stage for a country and world that is no longer interested in what God instructed through His Holy Word.\n\u201cBlessed are those who wash their robes, that they may have the right to the tree of life and may go through the gates into the city. Outside are the dogs,those who practice magic arts, the sexually immoral, the murderers, the idolaters and everyone who loves and practices falsehood.\"\n- Revelation 22: 14-15\nAmerica and the people that reside in it are now on the slippery slope of accepting a gospel based solely on a concept of a false doctrine and we are clearly seeing people discard the whole gospel of Jesus Christ for the portions they deem acceptable in their life. One example is the argument over this thing we call \"love.\" You hear it everywhere in the public square as it pertains to the acceptance of homosexuality. The argument; \"All people deserve to be loved. Everyone deserves to be happy.\" You hear \"it's time we all except one another without judgment.\" And, if you don't agree with this you are the evil, judgmental, close-minded Christian.\nNews flash dear friends. No one in this world deserves anything! In our flesh, we are all a sinful group of human beings bent on asserting our free will into the gospel of Jesus Christ. Because there is no one deserving; we have all fallen short of the glory of God (Romans 3:23-24). With that said, it might be high time we reconsider that the gospel of Jesus Christ is much bigger than the world's definition of \"love.\" Love is not a feeling, it's an action, a being. The Bible actually tells us that \"God is love\" (1 John 4:8) not \"Love is God.\"\nThe world we live in with its selfish view of love has turned the idea of God and what He has instructed into a contaminated understanding of love. Yes God has called us to love Him and love others, but that doesn't mean we throw away everything else God has instructed to bring about what we want to be ok and acceptable in our life (Leviticus 18). And as far as judgment, let us not forget that there are two kinds of judgment; righteous and foolish. A righteous judgment is in agreement with the Word of God. It agrees that sin is not ok in the eyes of the Creator and we should not be engaging in it. Foolish judgment reflects a free for all.\nBy claiming solely the \"love\" gospel and never standing against sin; you join the world's viewpoint that love is whatever makes a person feel good. You join in on the thinking that because people all deserve to be happy and find love however they desire, sin is ok. You agree that it's all right to sacrifice moral principles and the rights of others to obtain such \"love.\"\nReal love is like God, who is holy, just and perfect. If we truly know God, we will love as he does (LASB) and we will align our lives accordingly. And, if we love as He does then we will come to the understanding that love also corrected injustice, rebuked the sinner, and taught the way to the Father. Love was a heart response to the greatest gift ever given to mankind - Jesus. If you claim Him, you align your life to His. This will mean living differently than the world (Romans 12).\nIn 2016, I would encourage every reader to spend some time looking at the story of Jesus's response to the sinful woman at the well. found in the book of John chapter 8 verses 1 through 11. This was another time in history when leaders were disregarding the law to bring about self-will. Don't miss the response of those ready to throw the stones, and the response of the woman being accused. They both contrast an eye-opening event. Now is a perfect time for us to take a honest and fresh look at our own life. It's a good opportunity to recognize our sinful nature as it relates to the acceptance of things that are contrary to what God has instructed through His Word.\nLife's Application Commentary - John 8:10-11\n\"Then Jesus stood up again and said to her, \"Where are your accusers? Didn't even one of them condemn you?\" \"No Lord,\" she said. And Jesus said, \"Neither do I. Go and sin no more.\"\nJesus didn't condemn the woman accused of adultery, but neither did he ignore or condone her sin. He told her to leave her life of sin. Jesus stands ready to forgive any sin in your life but confession, and repentance, mean a change of heart. With God's help we can accept Christ's forgiveness and stop our wrongdoing.\" - LASB\nSo yes, God has called us to love Him and to love others. He wants us to be people of compassion, grace, and love. He desires that our lives reflect love but never at the cost of compromising His Holy instructions. Never at the cost of rebellion against what He has taught. It's time we understand that God gave three types of laws through His Word; ceremonial, civil and moral. The birth and death of Jesus removed the ceremonial. We no longer have to offer atonement for sin as Jesus' death took care of that. Rituals are no longer necessary for salvation. There is only one thing that saves us and that is belief in Jesus Christ (John 3:1-21). Civil laws of old and new testament times are the laws that kept order. If we disregard them completely all hell breaks loose. And the moral laws have not changed either. God still expects us to live as holy people and He gave us standards to follow. Those standards are our plumb line and they remain in effect still today. We cannot pick and choose in order to live our way. One day we will give an account for our decisions (2 Corinthians 5:10, Romans 14:11, Philippians 2:10-11).\nThe Bible tells us that doing things our way will bring about great consequence. So often we like to jump to the end of a story so that we don't have to bother reading or watching it through. So at the end of 2015 let's jump to the end of the Bible (Revelation 22:12-21). Here we can see the result of disobedience to the moral laws of God's Word. I pray you will heed these words as you move forward in life. HAPPY NEW YEAR and may blessings be a part of your future.\nLove the sinner - that is the example of Jesus.\nCondone, encourage, support, embrace, or celebrate the act of sin - a very dangerous practice.\nRevelation 22:12-21 (NIV) Epilogue: Invitation and Warning\n12 \u201cLook, I am coming soon! My reward is with me, and I will give to each person according to what they have done. 13 I am the Alpha and the Omega,the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End.\n14 \u201cBlessed are those who wash their robes, that they may have the right to the tree of life and may go through the gates into the city. 15 Outside are the dogs,those who practice magic arts, the sexually immoral, the murderers, the idolaters and everyone who loves and practices falsehood.\nThe holiday season can stir up in us a sense of sadness when we have experienced loss. It's a time of year when the enemy of our soul attempts to keep us from focusing on the true meaning behind the celebration. And, he uses our personal circumstances to do just that. The following is a portion of a talk I prepared for a bereavement group that included individuals who had lost children. I pray it will encourage someone out there this Christmas season. MERRY CHRISTMAS and may you experience a bright light of hope through these words which are a part of my personal testimony of loss.\nAnd the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. - Philippians 4:7\nOPEN HANDS - HEALED HEART\nYou might say you have never buried a child and you would be absolutely right. Because of this I cannot experientially know the brokenness of your heart. What I can share with you is that I know very personally the sadness of loss. I have had to say good-bye to more people that I cared deeply about in my 55 years than I care to list. One such relationship was my young brother who left this world in a tragic house fire when he was just 13 years old and I was 23. I also lost my cousin that day. He had been spending the night with my brother, he was 14 years old. We also lost our family home which was full of our personal memories. Praise God my sister and her dad were able to escape the flames. So yes, I never buried a child that I gave birth to thus far, but I have buried valuable pieces of my heart.\nWith that said, I want to share a revelation that God has gifted me with and I hope it brings encouragement to you. It is the very thing that helps me see hope in loss. This revelation hit me recently as I sat with my hands folded in prayer for several children fighting life-threatening illnesses. My heart aches for their parents and the families that were hoping for a miracle. Some will get that miracle through healing, but others will feel as if they have been jipped through death.\nMy message today may be very difficult to hear especially if you currently find yourself in the midst of personal loss. I encourage you to stay with me. For those of you who have not yet discovered the resurrection power of Jesus Christ, my words may sound like clanging cymbals in your ears. I encourage you to stay with me also.\nFriends, when we think death is the end there will be no hope! But for those who have been gifted to understand God\u2019s Holy Word; you know that death is not the end, it is the first moment of eternity. This is where believers find hope in personal loss. I did not always have this. Today as I cling to the reality of what God did for me at the cross where His One and Only Son hung beaten and battered for the sin of all of mankind, I can in a sense, contrast His feelings of grief with my own. Separation is painful but it doesn\u2019t have to be the end. Knowing Jesus\u2019 life story opens the door for eternal hope. If you don't know this story I am speaking of I would be happy to talk with you personally.\nI was in my early 20\u2019s when our tragedy hit. I had been in church all my life and knew about God, but the reality is I really did not fully understand the true character of God. So, when Satan began to point out how God failed to rescue my brother and my cousin, and when he pointed out God\u2019s inability to save our family home which I could physically see as charred rubble; I began to buy into his deception through a heart of anger. You see, I expected God not to let me down ever! I prayed often. I went to church most Sunday's. I put some money in the offering plate. I said my rosary and went to my religious classes. This was not supposed to happen to good people! Because of this mindset I was ill-prepared for the sudden and unexpected loss that cold February morning.\nNothing prepared me for the overwhelming emotions that would invade my mind for many, many years to come. On that day there was no time to process how I should react as a professed child of God. I kept begging God to let this be a bad dream and when it was my reality, I wanted nothing more to do with God. I asked some of the questions I imagine some of you have asked. \u201cWhere were you God?\u201d \u201cHow could you let this happen?\u201d \u201cWhy, why, why? echoed in my head constantly.\nAs I reflect back now I recognize that this was a defining moment in my life where Satan entered my heart through the deception of my mind. The last thing the enemy of my soul wanted, was for me to get to the place that I am today with God and he has been relentless against me ever since I have rejected his lies. The last thing he wanted me to understand is that \u201cI WIN\u201d whether I walk onward on this earth, or whether I am called home. The same is true for those I love. I cannot hold onto them with a closed fist any longer, they are not mine. They belong to God. He created them for His purpose. I am a guardian for those I love. And, if I am ever to survive loss in my future I must hold my hands open.\nThe truth is no one was physically created to live forever so we will have times of separation from those we love. But, we don\u2019t have to live and grieve as people who do not know. The enemy wants us to see life through his distorted viewpoint. He wants us to see the storms and disappointments of this life as reinforcement of his deception that if God was so good, He would never allow death or suffering. In this fallen world we have the foretelling that that is a lie. Let's take a look at John chapter 16 verse 33.\nWe were not created to be of this world (Romans 12:1) we were created to make a difference in this world. Some of us will walk many years trying to accomplish this and others will do it in a very short period of time before they are called home. This doesn\u2019t mean God isn\u2019t good or that He wants to withhold something good from you. When we view our loved ones as exclusively ours we will always end up where I was back in my 20\u2019s. But when you begin to allow yourself to embrace that God creates human beings for an eternal relationship and purpose with their Heavenly Father, your hands begin to open and your heart will soften. You begin to understand that He has the right to call them to Himself whenever He desires to do so. Whatever time we are given to share in their life is a gift.\nI am so grateful today for the 13 short years I had with my brother. I thank God that I was privileged to be his sister on this earth. I praise God that we had many, many beautiful moments of humor and love in that short time. And one day through our faith in Jesus Christ together we are going to have a wonderful day of reunion in the presence of Jesus.\nWhat changed in my heart? I allowed God back in the heart reserved for Him. I allowed Him to show me His Son coming to rescue my brother from eternal death on that day, I saw it in three ways. The first was through the declaration of my brother that he knew Jesus was The Way. This brings me comfort in knowing his soul resides with his Creator. Secondly it came through a vision of Jesus coming into that burning home and carrying the boys out before the fire ever touched their souls. And finally I was reassured through a dream in which my brother let me know he was ok. It was a dream that I didn't want to wake up from. I hang onto that dream because it reflects a Father that desired me to have peace as I go on without my brother. You too can have that peace through a heart of surrender. The alternative is living the rest of your days with a heart of anger, bitterness and personal turmoil. It is living with grief that will consume you. It is unhealthy!\nThis Christmas, let God help you see who He truly is. Open up His Word and let Him comfort you through His presence. Spill out your heart before Him, He can handle it. Ask Him to heal you of your broken heart so you too can be used to comfort others as I have attempted to do today. Take His heart and allow it into yours. I can assure you this is where the peace that surppasses ones understanding comes from.\nBe blessed broken souls. Beauty can arise from ashes.\n3 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, 4 who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God. 5 For just as we share abundantly in the sufferings of Christ, so also our comfort abounds through Christ. - 2 Corinthians 1:3-5\nGood good Father by Chris Tomlin\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CqybaIesbuA",

This three-year project is being undertaken in collaboration with the Columbia Global Centers | Europe (Paris), East Asia (Beijing), and Latin America (Rio de Janeiro). The first major event of the project was a roundtable conference in Paris on October 5-6, 2014. The second major event is the following roundtable conference in Beijing. Its goal is to build on the discussion in Paris and examine major issues in the Asian context, with a particular focus on China.\nMotivation: Almost a decade after the onset of the US Financial Crisis leading to the Great Recession, the world is once again facing the possibility of a global slowdown \u2013 even before we had returned to real prosperity. Economic rebound from the recession has been weak and some key problems are even more complicated now than they were before \u2013 increased banking concentration, increased inequality, increased concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere, and gridlock in the reform of the global system of governance. Questions arise as to how the global economy could be \u201creset\u201d to avoid long-term stagnation; What can individual countries, China in particular, do? What can Asia as a region do? How do we achieve more global cooperation?\nCenter on Global Economic Governance\nOn March 18th, 2016 the Center on Global Economic Governance (CGEG), in cooperation with the Columbia Global Centers|East Asia, the Initiative for Policy Dialogue and the Tsinghua University Schools of Economics and Public Policy, held the Role of the State in Economic Growth Conference in Beijing, China at Tsinghua University.\nThe conference was the second in a series of three conferences organized by CGEG as part of the Columbia University President\u2019s Global Initiative Fund for collaboration with the Columbia Global Centers. The first conference was held at Columbia\u2019s Global Center in Paris in October of 2014 and the final conference will be held at the Global Center in Rio in late 2016.\nThe Beijing conference was composed of four roundtable sessions focused on areas ranging from monetary and fiscal policy, industrial policy, innovation and global economic governance. The conference brought together leading academics, policymakers and business leaders from Asia, Europe, Latin America and the United States, and included a keynote address by 2001 Nobel Laureate Joseph Stiglitz and discussion by 2006 Nobel Laureate Edmund Phelps. Other notable participants included Nobel Laureate Michael Spence, SIPA Dean Merit E. Janow, Asian Development Bank Chief Economist Shang-Jin Wei, Jeffrey Sachs, Martin Wolf, Justin Lin and Martin Feldstein, among many other key participants.\nThe first conference session focused on monetary policy, capital flows and capital market regulation and was chaired by David Li, Mansfield Freeman Chair Professor of Economics and Director of the Tsinghua University Center for China in the World Economy. Pascal Blanqu\u00e9, Chief Investment Officer of Amundi Asset Management led off the first session and focused on investment opportunities and challenges in relation to Asia. He noted that, while the \u2018new normal\u2019 for investing in the West is now somewhat delineated, the parameters for emerging markets remain unclear. China, in particular, has many challenges ahead, including developing credible policies to attract investment, including price regulation and other legal norms, as well as new monetary and fiscal policies and rebalancing the service and industrial sectors. He remains optimistic on China for long-term investing opportunities.\nMartin Feldstein and Boris Vujcic focused on the U.S. Federal Reserve interest rate policy and its effects on emerging markets. Both agreed that the Fed should have started its rate hikes earlier, but also agreed that the Fed had been successful in normalizing unemployment in the U.S. Others in the session pointed out, however, that the Fed\u2019s delay in raising rates had been a source of stability for China and other emerging markets. Participants also discussed China\u2019s monetary, exchange rate and capital market policies. Some argued for more exchange rate regulation, while others encouraged a more natural float. All tended to agree however, that China should focus on one policy, rather than trying to manage multiple policies at the same time with limited resources. Several other roundtable participants then joined into the ensuing discussion. Joseph Stiglitz commented, \u201cThe notion that exchange rates are market determined is a fiction, as governments set rates and regulate investment. If China engages in more domestic investment, foreign assets will depreciate. The degree of enforcement of regulation will determine the scenario.\u201d\nThe second session was on Stabilization, Industrial Policy & Reforms, Environment and Income Inequality and was chaired by Chong-En Bai, Associate Dean and Chairman of the Economics Department at Tsinghua University. In his introduction to the session, Professor Bai noted that, the session would discuss two main issues that are central for China and which sometimes compete against each other: short-term growth strategies and sustainable improvement of welfare. Professor Bai pointed out that, \u201cChina has made important improvements in welfare already, for example reducing inequality, improvements in the service sectors and decreasing rural/urban gap on social indicators. However the questions remain on what should be the driving force of the economy in order to achieve fast short-term growth but also growth based on welfare improvements for the long run? What could be efficiency improvement, now that GDP is not growing as fast, since 2008?\u201d\nInitial intervenors in the session included Gerard Roland (Berkeley), Michael Spence (NYU), Shang-Jin Wei of the Asian Development Bank, and CGEG\u2019s Jan Svejnar. The speakers covered a plethora of issues, including the tension between the Communist Party and the private sector, transparency and the rule of law, market competition and creative destruction, and the role of the state in promoting innovation, reallocation of workers, resilience and efficiency. Michael Spence pointed out that, \u201cthe state has a clear role in equalizing market outcomes in order to reduce inequality. Keeping dynamics and efficiency of the economy while still aiming at more equal results is the challenge, and this requires more innovation.\u201d Some of the speakers were more optimistic on China\u2019s industrial reform than others. Jan Svejnar, for example, asserted, \u201cOverall I am optimistic, given the history of China over the last 40 years where so much has been gained, but there is need for significant restructuring towards the private sector (for competition and innovation etc.) especially in improvement for capital allocation in the private sector.\u201d\nFollowing the second session, the Roundtable broke briefly for lunch, followed by the luncheon keynote address by Joseph Stiglitz, and discussion by Edmund Phelps. Professor Stiglitz spoke on The Role of the State in the Next Stage of China's Development, very clearly conceptualizing the issues at hand. He summarized, \u201cThe question of the role of state is very contextual, changing in countries and over time. In China, the issues are the environment, extent of inequality, dread of instability, market volatility, urban congestion, lack of confidence in product safety, importance of education, health, problems posed by age decline and creating an innovative economy. These are the central problems facing China and in each of these the state will have to play a central role.\u201d\nIn his discussion, Edmund Phelps, countered that we must be careful in giving the state too large a role. He posited that the private sector is underestimated, and that many of the interventions by the state in China have led to massive failures, such as subsidies to low-wage workers and efforts to subsidize environmental protection, which have not been cost-effective. \u201cThe problem with a big emphasis on the public sector, is that it is not foresighted and is a long way from making a convincing case for concrete well-specified interventions.\u201d\nAfter the luncheon keynote and discussion, the Roundtable moved directly into the third session, on Education, R&D and Convergence, chaired by Xue Lan, Dean of the School of Public Policy and Management at Tsinghua University. Dean Xue kicked off the conversation with the question, \u201cIf we want the government to address market failures while at the same time improving the institutions\u2026 what is the reform that is needed? What should be the next round of government reforms?\u201d\nThe session included initial interventions by Peter Jungen, Lawrence Lau, Akbar Noman and Martin Wolf. All agreed that more attention must be focused on improving education, innovation and entrepreneurship in China. Peter Jungen launched a comparison with Europe, saying, \u201cEurope can be a model of what not to do. Europe is right now reducing social spending, increasing pensionable age, reducing unemployment benefits - all this because of fiscal adjustment reforms.\u201d He asserted that China must go in the other direction, and focus on job creation and innovation, saying \u201cthe problem is not that China is losing jobs but rather that it is not creating more jobs\u2026 promoting entrepreneurship is needed\u2026 encouraging startups, for example.\u201d The discussion also included suggestions from participants on how China can improve education and increase spending on research and development so as to further converge to developed country economies.\nThe fourth and final session was on Global Economic Governance -- New Models, New Institutions, and was led by Merit E. Janow, Dean of the School of International and Public Affairs, Columbia University. Dean Janow noted that there have been intense debates on the recent formation of new institutions, such as the New Development Bank, the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank and the Silk Road Fund. She emphasized that we are now seeing a number of emerging markets joining forces with developed markets in cooperation on development projects, and encouraged participants to consider the goals of China through these newly created institutions, and what opportunities exist in this evolving landscape.\nThe participants generally welcomed these new institutions, noting their positive influence on infrastructure and growth prospects in neighboring Asian countries and in other parts of the world. Shang-Jin Wei of the Asian Development Bank also noted that there have already been cases in which the institutions are partnering with existing development institutions, such as the World Bank and Asian Development Bank, a positive sign that China is taking on a collaborative stance, rather than a unilateral approach.\nSeveral participants also welcomed the new institutions as vehicles for addressing climate change through investment in clean energy. Echoing this sentiment, Jeffrey Sachs asserted that, \u201cThese new institutions should be vehicles for transferring high savings into sustainable high investment globally, through quality of investment.\u201d Participants agreed that much more discussion is warranted on this topic, and SIPA hopes to take it up again in future forums.\nIn conclusion, Marcos Troyjo, Co-Director of the BRICLab at SIPA\u2019s Center on Global Economic Governance, commented on the topic of transition, which had come up several times in the conference over the course of the day. He sees China, and more generally Asia, in a period of transformation, rather than only transition, into a driving force for the global economy, and welcomes these new institutions as leaders in this transformation.\nCGEG will reconvene the Role of the State conference for its third iteration in Rio de Janeiro in late 2016. We look forward to continuing this discussion with you then.\nAll Participants ------------ Others Speakers Task Force Chairs\nHaizhou Huang\nMerit Janow\nYuefen Li\nHead of the Debt and Development Finance Branch\nProfessor in Economics and Political Science\nBRICLab\nThe Jerome A.

        "raw_content": "Exporting Democracy: The Risks and Rewards of Pursuing a Good Idea (book excerpt)\nOn a cold January day, a young, vigorous president, whose style and substance seemed to capture the imagination of a generation, spoke these brave words:\nThe same revolutionary beliefs for which our forebears fought are still at issue around the globe \" the belief that the rights of man come not from the generosity of the state, but from the hand of God. We dare not forget today that we are the heirs of that first revolution. Let the word go forth from this time and place, to friend and foe alike, that the torch has been passed to a new generation of Americans \" born in this century, tempered by war, disciplined by a hard and bitter peace, proud of our ancient heritage, and unwilling to witness or permit the slow undoing of those human rights to which this nation has been committed, and to which we are committed today at home and around the world. Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe, in order to assure the survival and the success of liberty.\nThe words were, of course, spoken by John Fitzgerald Kennedy, war hero, charismatic senator, and exemplar of a generation that was ready to take its place at the helm of power. Thomas Paine would have been proud of the rhetoric. Edmund Burke would have taken the last sentence and crossexamined long and hard. Like many rhetorical flourishes, it contained a promise that could not be kept.\nKennedy\u2019s self-confidence, some might say hubris, led to the disaster at the Bay of Pigs, the CIA-financed and organized invasion of Cuba by exiles that ended in humiliation. Bad intelligence, exaggerated claims of what could be done and achieved, a goofball execution, and misleading public diplomacy led to defeat, retreat, and capture. The Bay of Pigs misadventure was a dry run for the Americans\u2019 calamitous engagement in Vietnam. Historians will debate into the distant future whether Kennedy would have reduced the US military commitment had he lived, but the fact remains that the core members of the Kennedy team \" Robert McNamara, McGeorge Bundy, Walt Rostow among others \" remained at the heart of American policy in Vietnam throughout the 1960s, and were responsible for advising President Lyndon Johnson on the need to expand troop commitments from a few thousand \u201d\u0153advisers\u201d\u009d to hundreds of thousands of troops, to go from assisting the South Vietnamese government to counter a Viet Cong guerrilla movement to waging a full scale war on North Vietnam that was expanded later by Richard Nixon and Henry Kissinger to Cambodia.\nJohnson\u2019s promise that \u201d\u0153we seek no wider war\u201d\u009d may have been spoken with sincerity, but a vastly wider war it became, as the bombs followed the movement of fighters and supplies between Ho Chi Minh\u2019s government in the north and the guerrilla movements in South Vietnam.\nThe floor manager for the passage of the Gulf of Tonkin resolution was Arkansas Senator J. William Fulbright, chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. Writing of the speedy passage of the resolution two years later, Fulbright described his own role as \u201d\u0153a source of neither pleasure nor pride to me today.\u201d\u009d A patrician voice of the Old South, Fulbright soon started to speak out against the decision to commit American lives and money in Vietnam.\nWe are not engaged in a war to \u201d\u0153defend freedom\u201d\u009d in South Vietnam. Unlike the Republic of Korea, South Vietnam has an army which fights without notable success and a weak, dictatorial government which does not command the loyalty of the South Vietnamese people\u2026I do not question the power of our weapons and the efficiency of our logistics\u2026What I do question is the ability of the United States or any other Western nation to go into a small, alien, undeveloped Asian nation and create stability where there is chaos, the will to fight where there is defeatism, democracy where there is no tradition of it, and honest government where corruption is almost a way of life.\nFulbright was calling for nothing than a change in America\u2019s basic assumptions: about itself, about the world around it, about what it would take to create a new partnership between the American people and the rest of the world. This change was not to be.\nNo leader in modern times has spoken with such emphasis about the connection between freedom, democracy, and foreign policy as President George Walker Bush. It was not a rhetoric he came to immediately. After he took office at the turn of the century, Bush put nation-building on the back burner. His first inaugural address was not memorable, and did not extend beyond the usual bromides. All this changed with al-Qaeda\u2019s attack on the Twin Towers, the Pentagon, and United Airlines Flight 93 on September 11, 2001.\nWhile al-Qaeda had been linked to several other attacks on American interests \" in the basement of the Twin Towers in 1993, the US military headquarters in Saudi Arabia in 1995 and 1996, US embassies in Nairobi and Dar es Salaam in 1998 and a US navy vessel in Yemen in 2000 \" the breathtaking scale and execution of the assault, and the subsequent tragic collapse of the iconic towers of the World Trade Center on that infamous day transformed the West\u2019s sense of the world. NATO invoked its charter and declared that an attack on a member of the alliance was an attack on all. As soon as it was determined the attack had been carried out by al-Qaeda, an organization whose leader, Osama bin Laden, was using the hospitality of the Taliban government in Afghanistan to recruit and train followers, the next step became clear: demand that the Taliban give up bin Laden and al-Qaeda or face the consequences.\nThis the Taliban leader, Mullah Mohammed Omar, would not do, and so the die was cast. The joint American and NATO attack on Afghanistan was swift and overwhelming. It was the largest bombing since the Second World War of a country that was among the poorest in the world. Afghanistan had been invaded and occupied by the Soviets in 1979, and during the resulting civil war that lasted throughout the 1980s, the mujahideen forces opposing the Soviet troops had been sheltered and encouraged by Pakistan and heavily subsidized by the CIA, which was acting on the principle that \u201d\u0153the enemy of my enemy is my friend.\u201d\u009d Osama bin Laden, as we have seen, was active during this period, recruiting fighters from throughout the Arab world to fight with the mujahideen. The retreat of Soviet troops in 1989 saw the Taliban swiftly take control of much of the country and subject it to an extreme and punitive form of Sharia law.\nThe US-led invasion quickly hounded the Taliban from the cities of Kabul and Kandahar, but tens of thousands of Afghan civilians died, and hundreds of thousands more were added to an already staggering homeless and refugee population in northwestern Pakistan. The infrastructure of much of the country was devastated.\nIn the early days, the apparent elimination of the Taliban gave the architects of the invasion a false sense of security and optimism. In language worthy of Woodrow Wilson, the Afghanistan Compact, launched at a conference in London in 2006, used these powerful phrases:\nRecognising the courage and determination of Afghans who, by defying violent extremism and hardship, have laid the foundations for a democratic, peaceful, pluralistic and prosperous state based on the principles of Islam;\u2026Mindful that Afghanistan\u2019s transition to peace and stability is not yet assured, and that strong international engagement will continue to be required to address remaining challenges; Resolved to overcome the legacy of conflict in Afghanistan by setting conditions for sustainable economic growth and development; strengthening state institutions and civil society; removing remaining terrorist threats; meeting the challenge of counter-narcotics; rebuilding capacity and infrastructure; reducing poverty; and meeting basic human needs.\nThe world solemnly committed itself to the reconstruction of a stable, democratic Afghanistan where the rights of all would be respected, and where the chaos of the past three decades would be quickly replaced by peace, good governance, and admittance to the family of democratic nations.\nNo speech better invokes the spirit of American foreign policy than George W. Bush\u2019s second inaugural address in January 2005. Evoking President Kennedy\u2019s promise to \u201d\u0153pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, and oppose any foe, in order to assure the survival and success of liberty,\u201d\u009d George Bush proclaimed:\nThe survival of liberty in our land increasingly depends on the success of liberty in other lands. The best hope for peace in our world is the expansion of freedom in all the world. America\u2019s vital interests and our deepest beliefs are now one. From the day of our founding, we have proclaimed that every man and woman on this earth has rights and dignity and matchless value because they bear the image of the maker of heaven and earth. Across the generations, we have proclaimed the imperative of self-government, because no one is fit to be a master, and no one deserves to be a slave. Advancing these ideals is the mission that created our nation. It is the honorable achievement of our fathers. Now it is the urgent requirement of our national security, and the calling of our time. So it is the policy of the United States to seek and support the growth of democratic movements and institutions in every nation and culture, with the ultimate goal of ending tyranny in our world.\nAs the conflict in Iraq continued to take its heavy toll, Americans began to question whether they were in fact ready to \u201d\u0153pay any price and bear any burden.\u201d\u009d At the end of the 2008 American presidential election, Barack Obama \" the candidate most critical of the original decision to enter the war, the most troubled by its legality, and the most convinced of its unworkability as a strategy for the country \" won. In his inaugural address, President Obama addressed the same subject that both John F. Kennedy and George W. Bush had spoken about in their inaugural speeches. What Obama said is interesting for its similarities to and differences from what his predecessors said:\nAs for our common defence, we reject as false the choice between our safety and our ideals. Our Founding Fathers, faced with perils we can scarcely imagine, drafted a charter to assure the rule of law and the rights of man, a charter expanded by the blood of generations. Those ideals still light the world, and we will not give them up for expedience\u2019s sake. And so to all other peoples and governments who are watching today, from the grandest capitals to the small village where my father was born: know that America is a friend of each nation and every man, woman and child who seeks a future of peace and dignity, and that we are ready to lead once more\u2026We will begin to responsibly leave Iraq to its people, and forge a hard-earned peace in Afghanistan\u2026We will not apologize for our way of life, nor will we waver in its defence, and for those who seek to advance their aims by inducing terror and slaughtering innocents, we say to you: know that our spirit is stronger and cannot be broken; you cannot outlast us, and we will defeat you.\nThe speeches of presidents Kennedy, Bush, and Obama are similar in their reverential reference to the Founding Fathers. The mission of America as the hope of the world and of Americans as an almost chosen people is equally assumed. Each was captured by rhetorical overreach. But there are differences. Obama stresses that power does not entitle America to do as it pleases, and refers to the \u201d\u0153tempering qualities of humility and restraint,\u201d\u009d which neither Kennedy nor Bush referred to, or would have been comfortable mentioning. Obama\u2019s explicit reference to the rule of law is something deeply ingrained in his training, teaching, and political thinking. But he cannot appear weak or admit the possibility of defeat, any more than Kennedy could have described the Bay of Pigs in that way, or Johnson or Nixon Vietnam, or Bush Iraq. Hence Obama followed an ambiguous statement about forging a \u201d\u0153hard-earned peace in Afghanistan\u201d\u009d with the more traditional American boast that \u201d\u0153our spirit is stronger and cannot be broken; you cannot outlast us, and we will defeat you.\u201d\u009d\nWhat Obama faced in Afghanistan was the fact that, while the invasion and overthrow of the Taliban had received strong support from the UN and the sanction of international law, this alone had not made the task of bringing peace, stability, and democracy to the country any easier. The United States and NATO had the right to respond to an unwarranted and unjustified attack. But when considering the likelihood of success, one might do well to consider William Fulbright\u2019s warning 40 years ago: \u201d\u0153What I do question is the ability of the United States or any other Western nation to go into a small, alien, undeveloped Asian nation and create stability where there is chaos, the will to fight where there is defeatism, democracy where there is no tradition of it, and honest government where corruption is almost a way of life.\u201d\u009d\nObama immediately commissioned a study similar to that by the Independent Panel on Canada\u2019s Future Role in Afghanistan headed by John Manley, to determine what could be done to devise a more realistic and more successful strategy. The keys to this new approach, which is now being attempted with some determination, are to transfer as much responsibility as possible to the Afghans themselves, on the understanding that most of them do not want to return to Taliban rule, and that there is a powerful national majority against extremism. This is supposed to meet the first two of Fulbright\u2019s issues \" chaos and defeatism. With this goal in mind, the training and development of the Afghan military and police become crucial. The military strategy has to be based on the understanding that an insurgency cannot be defeated in an armed battle.\nPresident Obama\u2019s statement \u201d\u0153Our spirit is stronger and cannot be broken; you cannot outlast us, and we will defeat you\u201d\u009d is only as true as support is deeply entrenched in public opinion in the West (as well as in Afghanistan) for a continued presence and partnership in pursuit of a shared objective. Otherwise it is just another empty promise.\nIn Afghanistan the West is fighting an opponent with a different value system, whose methods can be as brutal as it chooses to make them, and whose view of the world and the justness of its cause is more immediate. The Taliban and other insurgents are defending their land, their soil, their beliefs, their way of life. President Obama has recently said that the struggle in Afghanistan is notawarofchoicebutawarof necessity. It is actually both, and there is an ongoing struggle for public support whose challenge cannot be underestimated.\nGeneral Stanley McChrystal\u2019s description of the strategy now in effect in Afghanistan, which involves a surge in the numbers of both military and civilian personnel, is \u201d\u0153clear, hold, and stabilize.\u201d\u009d The decision to face the enemy head-on where they are currently in strong positions in the southern provinces of Helmand and Kandahar has meant far heavier casualties on both sides, but the West\u2019s military superiority seems to assure that the \u201d\u0153clear\u201d\u009d part of the strategy can be sustained, so long as there is a willingness to accept a large number of deaths of soldiers, and civilian casualties can be kept to a minimum. It is the \u201d\u0153hold and stabilize\u201d\u009d part that is the more difficult to achieve, because it depends on a relatively honest and open Afghan administration being able to win the struggle for hearts and minds. And that has emerged as a real Achilles heel.\nEven the Conservative government in Canada (which, in the words of Stephen Harper, sees the American conservative movement \u201d\u0153as a light and inspiration to people in this country\u201d\u009d) had to come to grips with some simple facts. While originally describing the Canadian mission as part of the global war on terrorism and a chance to bring freedom to the Afghan people, the Harper government now talks of the goal in much more modest terms: to create enough stability in the country for it to be able to govern itself. This shift was facilitated by the report of the Independent Panel chaired by John Manley, a former Liberal cabinet minister, which emphasized that \u201d\u0153victory\u201d\u009d would have to be defined in other than military terms, and that the keys to the future were getting government to work more effectively, getting NATO to coordinate better, and working harder to eliminate corruption and oppressive governance from the heart of Afghanistan politics and administration.\nIn other words, the war is not just about what the military call \u201d\u0153kinetics\u201d\u009d (i.e., armed combat) or even, to use General Hillier\u2019s unfortunate expression, \u201d\u0153beating scumbags.\u201d\u009d It is about something more difficult and more complex. The initial operation in Afghanistan was largely military in nature with an extremely light force of peacekeepers and CIA operatives. While foreign troops were initially welcomed by much of the Afghan population, heavy-handed raids that produced large civilian casualties, on top of an insensitivity to local conditions, and reports of torture and prisoner abuse began to turn local sentiment against the West. The country has received over thirty billion dollars of aid, and yet it is still hard to see much if any improvement in the economic life of many Afghans. Much of the financial assistance was fed into corrupt patronage systems, leaving the majority population feeling disenfranchised and frustrated. Little effort was made to understand the relationship between the many local warlords, militia groups, and tribal leaders. Widespread poppy cultivation remains an extraordinary challenge that cannot be fought with tanks and guns.\nThe challenge still is to engage the Afghan people, to gain their trust and prove that what the government of Afghanistan has to offer is better than Taliban rule. Training the Afghan military and police, and working with them to secure the territory regained from the Taliban, ensuring that it is better governed and better able to respond to the needs of the people, is the only way to go. Electricity, jobs, water, and education \" none of which can be supplied by a military force \" are the key priorities. The second half of the challenge lies beyond Afghanistan, in Pakistan, where that government\u2019s policy has often seemed closer to that of the old Roman Empire than a modern counterinsurgency effort. This is not simply a matter of ill will. It is all about capacity and training. Amassing a large army and air force, demonstrating superior fire power, destroying infrastructure, and, yes, intimidating a local population are what the Pakistani army has been trained to do in its focus on its number one enemy, India. To create an effective counter-insurgency strategy takes training, time, and money. It means money for development, for education, for health care. It also means a government that can command the support and respect of the people. Foreign soldiers, however well-intentioned, can\u2019t do that, nor can colonial administrators. It can only come from a local administration that is reasonably honest and has the ability to encourage economic development and sufficient social solidarity to maintain support in the face of attack. And that is not entirely in the West\u2019s hands or control.\nPresident Obama\u2019s description of the current objective in the region is to \u201d\u0153forge a hard-earned peace in Afghanistan,\u201d\u009d not to win a war. But even this more modest objective will be hard to achieve, not least because it is not primarily the West\u2019s struggle to win or lose. It will depend on the determination of both the Afghanistan and Pakistan governments to see their writ extend the full length and breadth of their borders, with sufficient support from the people living in all parts of their countries. It will also depend on those two governments ending a long-standing enmity and mistrust. Afghanistan, it is worth recalling, was the only country to vote against Pakistan\u2019s admission to the United Nations. No visit to a senior Afghan official is complete without a full account of Pakistani treachery and of their full-blown support for the Taliban. More neutral observers concede that the Pakistani government seems at long last to be serious about the threat to their existence from the internal insurgency. The conflict in the Swat Valley seems evidence of this. They are less certain about Pakistan\u2019s real interest in helping the Afghan government overcome the Taliban; hence the delay in getting rid of the Taliban bases in North Waziristan.\nThree presidents, three speeches, three wars. America took on Vietnam at the height of the Cold War and survived defeat without losing its preeminence, at least in part because the country\u2019s economic and technological superiority was not challenged. The collapse of the Soviet Union created a sense in the United States that all was possible, that there was a limitless Pax Americana, and that a resurgent relationship with NATO and other allies would keep the peace and lead to expanding freedom and democracy around the world.\nThe persistence of ethnic and religious conflict that is now re-emerging even in Europe, grinding poverty and war in Africa and the dramatic rise of new economies in Asia, Russia, and Latin America all cast a shadow on this happy picture. Two events combined to make the sunny scenario even less plausible: the first was 9/11, the largest terrorist attack launched on American soil. The second was an economic crisis whose origins lay in a decision by American financial institutions to lend billions of dollars in subprime mortgages to people who could not afford them, and to divide the liability among financial instruments sold to other financial institutions around the world, thereby transmitting a virus from which the global economy is still reeling.\nThe 9/11 attack revealed a vulnerability that any open society has to deep and violent fanaticism, and we are still dealing with its aftermath. The price has been high: millions of dead, wounded, and displaced in Iraq and Afghanistan, and hundreds of billions of dollars expended in an effort to punish those responsible and remake the societies that produced this zealotry, and a heightened insecurity in every society that is threatened with the possibility of violence and repression.\nThe disastrous fallout from the subprime mortgage crisis has taken its own toll. Those who doubted that globalization was a reality, or thought that it was just a empty phrase, have been shown how a collapse in one market very quickly became a collapse around the world. Its effects raced from banks and finance houses to real estate to manufacturing; from private finances to galloping public and private deficits and debts. Few countries or regions were immune \" from Iceland to Portugal, Greece and Ireland to California, Latvia and Thailand, the effects have been devastating for citizens, financial institutions, and economies.\nThe extent and depth of these crises brought to light what had been clear to some for many years, but had never completely penetrated the public consciousness: America remains a military superpower, but its superiority cannot reliably be translated into automatic and decisive success. It could remove Saddam Hussein and the Taliban from power, but the next step \" stable governments presiding over economies with steady growth and populations grateful for the military intervention, such as were established in Japan and Germany after the Second World War \" did not follow, and required more than military power to even get started. There are limits to power, and all the bombs, tanks, and infantry in the world will not successfully extend it.\nThe second lesson is even more difficult. America\u2019s economy is characterized by its innovation and resilience, but it is not alone in the world, and it is no longer the sole dominant one. The ebb and flow of empire does not allow for an American exception.\nThe rise of other economies will affect America as surely as all other economic changes have affected imperial primacy since time immemorial.

The book draws on critical Indigenous and decolonial literature to argue for the importance of prioritising Indigenous knowledge in understanding contemporary Indigenous over-representation in the criminal justice system. Indigenous Criminology sets out the significance of colonialism as a key foundational concept to developing a critical Indigenous criminology. It analyses how colonialism impacts on the current operations of criminal justice. The book explores a number of explicit issues including the policing, sentencing and punishment of Indigenous people. It considers the impact of crime control specifically on Indigenous women and discusses the effects on Indigenous people of globalisation and crime control. The book concludes with a reflection on critical issues in the development of an Indigenous criminology, including the need to take seriously the voices of Indigenous peoples and the rights embedded in the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples.\nKeywords: indigenous criminology, indigenous knowledge, colonialism, policing, sentencing, indigenous women, globalisation\nChris Cunneen, author\nJuan Tauri, author\nTwo Towards a critical Indigenous criminology\nThree Understanding the impact of colonialism\nFour Policing, Indigenous peoples and social order\nFive Indigenous women and settler colonial crime control\nSix Reconceptualising sentencing and punishment from an Indigenous perspective\nSeven Indigenous peoples and the globalisation of crime control\nEight Critical issues in the development of an Indigenous criminology",

        "title": "New school discipline guidelines backtrack | The Portland Observer",
        "raw_content": "By Marian Wright Edelman | 2/13/2019, 10:04 a.m.\nMany schools and school districts have finally begun reforming their policies to promote positive academic and behavioral outcomes for all students and eliminate harsh and exclusionary discipline practices that push students out of school. During the Obama Administration the Departments of Education and Justice supported these positive reforms. Their 2014 guidance was a key step reminding schools of their legal obligations, followed by resources to help schools make sure they were providing equal opportunity for all students. The Trump Administration is now actively undercutting and eliminating this guidance.\nIn December, just as most teachers and students were getting ready to leave for winter break, the Departments of Education and Justice announced they were rescinding the 2014 guidance reinforcing protections for students of color and students with disabilities from discrimination in school discipline.\nThe Children\u2019s Defense Fund joined the Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights and 119 other organizations last month in signing a letter to the Departments of Education and Justice urging them to immediately recommit \u201cto vigorous enforcement of our civil rights laws and to a meaningful response to racial discrimination in school discipline.\u201d\nThe letter says the 2014 guidance \u201cclarifies that [the Departments of Education and Justice] expect schools and districts to treat all children fairly and provides practical tools and guidelines for educators to create safe, healthy, and inclusive environments for all students \u2026 Rescinding the guidance sends the opposite message: that the departments do not care that schools are discriminating against children of color by disproportionately excluding them from school and that the departments will not fulfill their role in helping educators create and maintain safe schools that afford all students equal educational opportunities.\u201d The letter also notes that rescinding the guidance is another in a long line of administration actions that \u201cmake schools less safe for LGBTQ students, sexual assault survivors, immigrant students, students of color, students with disabilities, and any child who experiences systemic discrimination.\u201d\nEvery day in America 2,363 children are arrested. That\u2019s one child every 37 seconds. Thousands of children of color and with disabilities are getting trapped in the cradle to prison pipeline because of discriminatory school discipline policies that often push children into the juvenile justice system. We must continue to enforce the laws preventing discrimination, which remain intact, and the good practices referenced in the 2014 guidance and reject every effort to drag our nation\u2019s laws and children backwards.\nAs we enter Black History Month soon after celebrating what would have been Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.\u2019s 90th birthday, his words inspire us to go forward and resist this administration\u2019s attempts to push our children backwards. I often quote his clear words the first time I heard him speak in person during my senior year of college in Spelman College\u2019s chapel: \u201cIf you cannot fly, drive; if you cannot drive, run; if you cannot run, walk; if you cannot walk, crawl. But keep moving. Keep moving forward.\u201d We must not miss a step in our march toward justice.\nMarian Wright Edelman is founder and president emerita of the Children's Defense Fund.",

In many cases, a curtsy is a submissive maneuver, wherein the lady lowers her head and eyes below those of the person she is meeting.\np>In 2007, Laura Mayes (nee Harrison) and two friends decided during the Super Bowl to give the old-world word a new-world meaning \u2013 a meaning of power, unity and sharing among women.\nThus, \u201cKirtsy.com\u201d was born.\nAn Internet portal that scours the web for information, stories, recipes and shopping tips, Kirtsy is \u201cthe friend that always finds the best stuff\u2026 only better.\u201d From entertaining tips to dieting advice, child-rearing information to business ideas, Kirtsy.com has it all.\nOn Nov. 15, 2009, Kirtsy expanded, leaping from the Internet to hard copy in the form of \u201cKirtsy Takes a Bow,\u201d a collaboration of what editors believed to be the best of the best that Kirtsy contributors had to offer.\nMayes, as the book\u201ds editor, was one of the chief voices in making those decisions.\nNot too bad for a former Chisholm Trail Queen and 1989 graduate of Lockhart High School.\nMayes has now earned a place in popular culture, helping women across the nation to ferret connect, share and ferret out the most trendy, helpful, interesting and informative information the Internet has to offer.\nAfter stops on her book-signing tour in Austin, Houston, Washington, D.C., and New York City, Mayes is bringing her talents home for a limited engagement in Lockhart. She, and \u201cKirtsy Takes a Bow\u201d will make an appearance on Saturday, Dec. 12, from 1 \u2013 3 p.m. at Wendy R.\nWhen she\u201ds not busy being a web mogul or book editor, Mayes works as the vice-president of an advertising agency, where she stretches her literary legs writing for Fortune 500 companies and musicians, among other clients. In her spare time, she spends time with her husband, and chases her son, James Harrison \u201cHurricane Harry\u201d Mayes, around the house.\nIf you miss \u201cKirtsy Takes a Bow\u201d at Wendy R, the book is also available at Borders and Barnes & Noble bookstores, and can be ordered through Amazon.com.\nTwo reported dead in rural plane crash\nSerial rapist evades law enforcement\nA community on the brink\nJudge\u2019s race proves to be expensive as campaigns heat up\nFatal crash claims Lockhart man",

        "raw_content": "The husband, Baby A and I just got back from our first family holiday - 2 weeks in Italy. I had never been to Italy before (which usually prompted the reaction \u201cWHAT?? You\u2019ve Never been EVER? You must have?\u201d No, I wasn't lying. It seems to be a rite of passage into, well, life. Everyone is so incredibly passionate about Italy which must have rubbed off from the Italians themselves as they are the most passionate people on the planet. So instead of boring you with a long drawn out post on the joys of the place which it seems everyone was aware of well before me, I\u2019ll do a quick summary.\nYes, it was as beautiful as everyone had said.\nYes, the food was un-rivalled in it\u2019s deliciousness I don\u2019t understand how all Italians aren\u2019t fat with the amount they eat.\nYes, it now tops the list of \"where would I have my holiday house if I won the lottery\".\nNo, I don't understand how anything gets done as it seems restaurants/shops are open for half an hour a day, on different days.\nIt was also the first time I properly realised that I am a grown up because we willingly went to churches, an aquaduct, beautiful gardens and other touristy sites. Not only that, but I actually took photos of door frames which I remember my father doing when I was little and I just couldn't understand how it was not the most ridiculously boring, pointless thing ever. Soon I will be listening to Radio 4.\nSo there we have it, Italy has turned me into an adult.\nAnd now some pics of some Italian bits and pieces that I thought were rather lovely.\nI'm not sure if there is a collective noun for shutters so I'm going to go right ahead and call this \"a shitload of shutters\".\nAnd, my god shoot me now, this is the MOST perfect pool house WANT WANT WANT. Yes it\u2019s an orangery - which were used purely for storing citrus fruits in the winter to keep them alive as they used to be a sign of wealth back in the day (I learnt that on our guided tour, see what I mean about being a grown-up?)Anyway, it's now top of my list of things that will go into Dream House. (This was at La Foce incase you're interested).\nHere we have some trees and gates. I know, I'm good. We called these trees \"Gladiator trees\" because they line the drive up to the house in the film where the wife and kid are killed off. I'm not sure what the actual name is but I must be close. Love the nobbly pine cone looking gate posts in the middle.\nBeautiful balconies.\nThey do know how to do a church don't they?\n(Sneaking into the picture above is Baby A's bunny Slaperjack - he just happened to be checking out the blue green hues of the roof of the Basilica of San Francesco when I took the photo).\nA couple of lovely Italian buildings and a stunning garden. (I'm not really talking them up am I? I think the pics say it all, you don't need me making a hash of a description).\n..some classic narrow Tuscan streets. I couldn't believe they actually look so postcard-esque (word?) but they do.\n...and finally my favourite room of the trip - the sitting room at Borgo Della Marmotta. This is a communal room where all guests can go and hang out and have a drink from the honesty bar (...HUGE glasses of wine were a favourite from the honesty bar).\nWANT those lamps off the drinks table...\nps. Our only restrained purchase while on holiday were these two pics which we found in an antique shop in Spoleto. They are 19th century designs for S\u00e8vres porcelain (which ironically is French) but I LOVED them and the distressed frames too so I set the husband on to negotiate and we brought them back as hand luggage. They actually look dark in the pic but the frames are really blue matching the designs.\nNow where to put them...\nLabels: Borgo Della Marmotta, Italy, Sevres porcelain, shutters, Tuscany\nAli Moony 20 July 2012 at 03:17\nAhhh I love it!! So beautiful... And it makes me miss you so much....",

The Michelin Guide stated, \u201cChef Salvatore Calisi has fun with the menu, lending it some Mediterranean touches and infusing it with contemporary sensibility that utilizes both local California products as well as global accents.\u201d He has been a guest chef at the James Beard House several times, and has made several television appearances, including Regis Philbin, Fox News channel, The Tony Danza Show, The Food Network, and various morning shows both in California and New York\nBoth Prova and Odeum Restaurants see their patrons in Morgan Hill and the wider South Valley as family. For that reason, Chef Calisi\u2019s restaurants, Prova and Odeum, have donated many hours and dinners to variuous organizations, charity events, and community fund raisers.\nChef Calisi has an extensive formal culinary education, complemented by years of experience in the kitchen both in the United States and abroad, beginning as a boy at Yolanda\u2019s, his father\u2019s restaurant in New York. He spent his summers in high school and college working in restaurants on the luxurious resort islands of Elba and Sardinia and went on to graduate from the prestigious Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park.\nPrior to moving to California, Calisi spent five years honing his Executive Chef toque with well-heeled restaurateurs Peter Michaels and Paolo Veronese, most recently\nat Valbella in New York\u2019s gentrified meat-packing district, which opened to rave reviews in the fall of 2005.\nPreviously he opened Osteria Stella in New York to critical acclaim, helping to build a menu of diverse and complementary Italian dishes, many influenced by his tenure at both Osteria al Doge and Osteria Laguna. Prior to such, Chef Calisi worked as the sous-chef for critically-acclaimed restaurateurs including Charlie Palmer at Aureole, Rocco DiSpirito at Union Pacific and under Executive Chef Scott Bryan at the three-star restaurant Veritas. The talented and affable chef learned the most outside of school, working in the kitchen and paying close attention to everything diners ate\u2014and everything they did not. \u201cAt Veritas, the kitchen was really small, and my sous-chef station was right next to the dishwasher,\u201d he explains. \u201cI\u2019d watch every plate that came in, and if something was left on the plate, I\u2019d examine it to find out why,\u201d he says. Even if it was something as small as a scallion or a clove of garlic, Chef Calisi would take it off the plate, feel its texture to determine if it was over or under-cooked, and figure out how it could have been better prepared. \u201cI have to get it exactly right,\u201d he says.\nThat perfectionist trait was put to the test at Union Pacific, where almost daily famous chefs would stop in to dine at the restaurant. Charlie Palmer, David Bouley and Alain Ducasse frequented the restaurant and Chef Calisi would watch with bated breath from the kitchen (often leaving the door open slightly) to determine how they liked each dish. \u201cOne day David Bouley was sucking on the bone of a lamb chop I\u2019d prepared,\u201d he said. \u201cIt made my day!\u201d\nChef Calisi has two children, A.J. and Presley, and resides in Morgan Hill.",

        "raw_content": "Northern Ireland: A Tale of Two Cities\nIt seems important to me to say that I believe there is more than one Belfast. The City Centre looks and feels like any other British city. It's clean, there is nice shopping, and teenagers meet up after school to hang out in the park. The kids in the park have one or two stories about the occasional sectarian dust up, but on the whole they talk about how they've moved on. They have friends of both religions, and they don't seem to be effected by the Troubles in the slightest, or if they are effected, it is only by how fed up they are with their parent's generation. The Belfast of The Falls and Shankill is a different animal altogether.\nThe Falls and Shankill are called \"working class\" neighborhoods, which is a very polite way of saying they are deprived. They were ground zero for the Troubles, and there are still significant economic problems.\nAn abandoned lot on the Shankill side of the peace line.\nWhile walking though Shankill the other day I came across four 17-year-old boys playing football in the street. All four dropped out of high school at 15, which is allowed here, to go on welfare (for 40 pounds a week) while learning a trade. These particular boys all had part time jobs, but unemployment is an epidemic here. One youth worker told me it was a generational problem where the grandfather and father have never worked a day in their life, and now the children coming up see living on welfare as a goal, with getting on permanent disability as the brass ring. Less than 1% of students here will go to college and I was told that the global economic slowdown won't have much of an impact, simply because so many people are already unemployed.\nSeveral people have told me that the area's sectarian problems aren't about religion or politics, they are a class issue. To some extent I can see what they mean, as the kids I mentioned talking to in the city centre are from the upwardly mobile middle class. They don't need to cling to \"the cause\" because they have something else to look forward to. The youth in The Falls and Shankill don't have the same prospects, and so they settle into a system that existed long before they were born.",

        "raw_content": "Anya Schwartz has 8 articles published.\nPublished on February 15, 2019 by Anya Schwartz\nPhoto Credit: http://tour.goucher.edu/site/m/stimson-hall/\n\u201cYour shirt smells like Stimson,\u201d someone tells you. There\u2019s not a specific smell that you can pinpoint as smelling like an entire building, but you know exactly what they mean. Yet \u2014 you haven\u2019t been in Stimson in, like, eight months. Actually, you can\u2019t remember the last time you were in Stimson. Also, this shirt is brand-new. Does that mean that everything you wear smells like Stimson? Do you just smell like Stimson?\n\u201cStimson was supposed to be knocked down in the seventies,\u201d an upperclassman said once, back when you were still a freshman. It was a funny joke; Stimson was the focal point of the entire campus, the meeting grounds at which clumps of people would reunite each mealtime. Now the administration is saying again that Stimson will be gone soon. Isn\u2019t that what they promised last time? Maybe there will always be cycles of new people saying that Stimson will be destroyed every decade or so. Maybe you should switch your means of measuring time to be the last time someone said Stimson would be eliminated. How many years has it been since 2010? Oh, I don\u2019t know anymore, but it\u2019s been seventeen years since someone in a suit promised last Stimson would burn.\n\u201cI swear I heard a mouse last night,\u201d your roommate used to say, back when you both lived in Winslow 3. Now whenever you walk past Stimson, all you can see are mice. They have built a home for themselves in the abandoned hallways of Connor. They seem to watch you through the windows through the cracking mesh screens, leer at you with their vacuous stares. One of them seems to be wearing a crown. They have colonized the land that was once yours, made it their own. They live amongst the ruins. They are all that is left.\nFor the last few years, nature has been waging its own war against the aging collection of buildings called Stimson. First came the mice, but then the spiders, and the moths. They live in the showers, buried into the carpets, hidden underneath the closet doors. And do you remember the bees? An entire swarming colony of them. \u201cDocile,\u201d the Public Safety email said they were, but when you saw them, you knew they were anything but. Their buzzing seemed to you like screaming, like a warning, Stay out. Or, possibly, Stay away.\nThe new campus fulcrum, Mary Fisher, looks upon Stimson with jealousy. It has glass windows that, for some reason, are cloaked in black fabric, and updated appliances and cool orange chairs. But you know better. The orange chairs are too high for anyone to comfortably sit upon. The white floors are too clean, they smell like Lysol, sterilized and shiny. There are no stains here. Mary Fisher wages a war against the nature that controls Stimson now, fights back. It says, You may have won that battle, but you will not take me.\nIn sandwich line at Mary Fisher the other day, you overheard a freshman say to another freshman, \u201cStimson? I don\u2019t even know where that is.\u201d You have been here for a thousand years, and these freshman are so young and new and you feel sorry for them. You think of the smell, of the line outside by the corkboard, of the mice you cohabited with, of the recycled promise of its downfall. And you smile to yourself, because Stimson was more than just a building that may eventually be conquered, it was a talisman, a memento, an inspiration, of resilience and strength. An old friend that smiles at you sadly from the far side of Van Meter, but you never quite have the energy to go and say hello.\nPublished on November 9, 2018 by Anya Schwartz\nPhoto credit: https://www.videoblocks.com\nHalloween was last week and so we celebrated with another party, even though we had less pudding rations for dessert than usual, as we\u2019re trying to conserve food. Zara Hemmings made us all dress up in costumes. Nico Soto and Callum Lang were Mrs. S and Mr. B, and Mrs. S got really mad about it because they snuck into her room and stole pantyhose. I think Mr. B thought it was funny, but Mrs. S kept glaring at him to be mad, too, that he had to pretend.\nEvery day after that has been pretty boring. Back to our regularly scheduled educations, I guess. We learned how to test the vents for optimum airflow, how to program the communications system to do big math for us, and we spent three days studying the American Revolution. At one point, Mrs. S tried to assign us to research each of our own states, but Jake\u2019s from Oregon, which didn\u2019t even exist yet, so then we just watched Schoolhouse Rock videos about America in general.\nI was having trouble with polynomial long division on Thursday, so during our lunch break, I went to Mr. B\u2019s office to ask if he could help \u2014 Mrs. S was chatting about the Housewives with Alex, and I didn\u2019t want to bother her. Mr. B was having his lunch, too, of dehydrated vegetables and some weird mix of chemicals that kind of tasted like coffee that he cooked up a few months ago.\n\u201cAh, Gina,\u201d he said when I knocked on his door.\n\u201cThat was very ominous, Mr. B,\u201d I said.\nHe laughed a little, but I couldn\u2019t tell if it was because what I said was actually funny, or if it was just so awkward that he had to laugh so that it wasn\u2019t as awkward as it could\u2019ve been. \u201cWhat do you need?\u201d\nI think he was trying to hide something from me. He kept his body angled completely towards me, with his hands behind his back. His office is very small, a secluded room towards the back of the ship near the boiler room, so it\u2019s always quite cozy. He\u2019s decorated it with pictures of home the way the rest of us have decorated our bunks.\n\u201cLong division,\u201d I told him.\n\u201cAh,\u201d he said again.\nI got the sense that he wanted me to leave, so I offered, \u201cWe could go to the kitchen, maybe? Where there\u2019s the big table?\u201d\nMr. B nodded. \u201cYeah, yeah.\u201d\nI know it\u2019s all mysterious and weird and all that Mr. B\u2019s keeping secrets, but he\u2019s so nice that I don\u2019t feel like I need to bust him. It\u2019s a small ship \u2014 we all have things that we want to keep private.\nI don\u2019t know why I\u2019m telling you this. You don\u2019t know Mr. B or me or any of us. But I guess it\u2019s kind of nice to know that someone is out there, reading this. Maybe you go home to a partner or a family and you sit down for dinner at 6 p.m., and maybe you have Thanksgiving plans, and maybe sometimes you look up at the sky and the moon and you think of us up here. I think that would be nice.\nI wish you could write back someday.\nPublished on October 26, 2018 by Anya Schwartz\nPicture Credit: https://www.gingdu.com\nOne more day until Day 200, which is crazy! It feels like we\u2019ve been here for entire years, but it\u2019s only been a few months. Jake and I have been trying to convince Mrs. S to let us throw a party for the special occasion but she is very adamant that tomorrow be just another regular day. Mr. B said he\u2019d help us work on her, but only after we promised him that we\u2019d stay away from the janitor\u2019s closet for a week. (Apparently Jake has been semi-regularly stealing the good vacuum from Mr. B\u2019s closet\u2014I have no clue as to why, but Mr. B just about lit up when Jake said he\u2019d leave it alone.)\nIn the meantime, while we wait for Mrs. S to acquiesce, I have convinced some of the others to help make decorations. Alex said she\u2019d make a banner, and Tommy said he\u2019d make a PowerPoint with pictures and inside jokes to document the first 200 days we\u2019ve spent together. I asked Nico if he could make a playlist, but he still won\u2019t talk to me after Gwen and I put glue into his hair gel.\nOn the other hand, amid all of this excitement, we are experiencing a slight crisis: we think we are running out of food. Mrs. S noticed for the first time last week, when we were making chili for the gazillionth time, and she realized that we only have three thousand cans of beans left. Now, you reading this from the safety of Earth, where beans grow in excess on trees (do beans grow on trees?), may be thinking the same thing that I did\u2014three thousand cans of beans is a lot of beans.\nBut then Zara Hemmings did the math for me. If we use three cans of beans a week, we will run out of beans in twenty years. Again, that might also seem like a long time, until you remember that as far as we know, we will be on this ship for the rest of our lives, heading deeper and deeper into space, where there are obviously no grocery stores to stock up on more beans. (And we usually use closer to six cans of beans a week.) These are only our beans stores, but if we have around the same amount of cans for the rest of our food options, we are about doomed.\nBecause I\u2019m so good with the communications system and also very good at writing compared to everyone else, Mrs. S made me draft a very nice letter back to The Department asking if there was possibly a mistake with our food stores, or if they could send a small ship out with more food that could somehow fly extra fast and catch up to us. Nico swears there\u2019s another pantry somewhere on the ship where there\u2019s more food that The Department just forgot to tell us about, but I have a feeling that if there was more food on the ship, they would\u2019ve found somewhere in the thousand-plus page ship manual to mention it. So if you get the chance to ask around about that and then get back to us about it, that\u2019d be great.\nI think that\u2019s all for today.\nPhoto Credit: https://www.spacetelescope.org\nIt\u2019s about 0945 on the Allure and we have, surprisingly, done no work all day.\nFor the first time, The Department has sent us a newspaper from Earth, and, of course, everyone wanted to read it when it first came through. There was a mad scramble towards the log computer when the morning mail alarm first read aloud the incoming paper. Jacob got there first, because he\u2019s the tallest, and he had Tommy Filt in a headlock to keep him out of the way. But then Mrs. S intercepted and made Jacob let Tommy go and then stand across the room. She decided the most fair way for everyone to read it was for her to read it aloud.\nSo the rest of us crowded around her seat and we spent all day reading the news. It felt a little bit like storytime, like when we were kids, all of us sitting on the ground in a huddle, just listening. And, honestly, it was kind of wonderful. We skipped the boring stuff, because none of us wanted to listen to Mrs. S drone on about things we didn\u2019t care about, and nor did she want to read it. But the advertisements were amazing! The first one we read was for some new face wash that guarantees no acne within a week. All of us just about died when we heard that because we have to ration our acne cream on the ship\u2014I think The Department largely underestimated the amount of acne cream that eight teenagers would need for months and months. Alexandra demanded that we turn the ship around right then and go back to Earth to get some of the new product. Mrs. S said she was being ridiculous and to sit back down.\nJake Kelsey and Nico Soto both flipped when they saw the pictures of the new Nintendo 4DS. None of us could figure out how it worked from the full-page ad, so Jake demanded that we look up videos about how to use it on YouTube. Mrs. S let him because he\u2019s her favorite. She even let Gwen turn all the lights off, so it felt like we were in a proper movie theater while we watched.\nWe also read a couple movie reviews. After reading them we argued about which we\u2019d all want to watch; we agreed upon the new Incredibles movie. So, if you\u2019re reading this, and you have any power over which movies The Department sends\u2026you know what to do. Sometimes, when we\u2019re lucky, The Department will send us a movie, although it\u2019s never been a movie that we\u2019ve asked for. If we\u2019re lucky, none of us have seen it before, but if we\u2019re even luckier, it will be a Disney movie. I nearly cried when, a few weeks ago, Mrs. S told me we\u2019d just gotten High School Musical 2. When we do get movies, they have have poor graphics and crackly audio (I guess because the transmission of movies into space is difficult?) but at least they don\u2019t have ads like YouTube does.\nThen Mr. B came in and asked for the sports news. Apparently it\u2019s difficult to keep up with baseball when you\u2019ve been cryogenically frozen and then stuck on a spaceship for an extended period of time.\nIt\u2019s weird to think about how sports and politics and businesses keep on functioning on Earth while we\u2019re all stuck up here. Of course I\u2019m not egotistical enough to think that Earth would miss us now that we\u2019re gone, but\u2026I struggle to comprehend how life on Earth can still be normal for some people while my entire world has been turned upside down.\nEw, that sounded super cheesy. I just reread that last paragraph and I am supremely sorry that you had to read it.\nSo now it\u2019s nighttime, or as close to nighttime as you can get on a spaceship, and Mrs. S said it\u2019s okay that we didn\u2019t learn anything, or do any physical labor all day. She said that even we deserve a day off every once in a while to do something fun. I guess that\u2019s a nice sentiment, but if I get to choose what fun thing to do on my next day off, it will not be reading the newspaper.\nAnd I guess that\u2019s all for now. You\u2019ll be hearing from me again tomorrow!\nIt\u2019s been over 100 days, and I am still required to write these stupid logs. As if anyone back home is still reading them. Who really cares what eight teenagers in space are learning, or what they\u2019re thinking about what they\u2019re learning? Mrs. Something (I can never remember her name) says they\u2019re very important for The Department\u2019s records.\nSo, hello to whoever in The Department is reading this. I hope you\u2019re having a nice day today. Kiss the ground for all of us.\nToday we learned how to check the windows to make sure they stay air-tight. Alexandra Lopez didn\u2019t show up to mandatory training, and she earned herself an hour in detention. (Detention is getting yourself locked in one of the bathrooms, because they\u2019re the only rooms with no maintenance equipment, no intercom, and no windows. It\u2019s really boring.) Just to piss off Mrs. S, Alexandra shaved off all of her hair while in the bathroom. It took Mr. Banks, our janitor/head engineer/maintenance man/more-that-I-cannot-remember extraordinaire, more time to get the hair out of the sink drain than Alexandra spent in detention.\nMr. Banks has gotten used to cleaning drains of hair, though. After we all woke up from cryo when the Allure got into space, all of our hair kept falling out in chunks until our bodies adapted to being alive again.\nLearning how to check the windows was cool but freaky. Knowing that one wrong move could probably kill us all made everyone very still and very quiet. Which is rare, for a group of delinquents.\nDuring training, we\u2019re split into two groups; one with Mrs. S, and the other with Mr. B. Jacob Kelsey and Gwen Clemons, my best friends on the ship, were both part of Mr. B\u2019s group, and I was with Mrs. S, so I was forced to hang out with Nico Soto for the whole time. But then one of the alarms went off because the plumbing was all clogged, and Mr. B had to leave to go check on it. (It was Alex\u2019s hair.) So the groups converged into one, and we all pestered Mrs. S until she let us stop checking the windows and go back to our common area.\nI really don\u2019t know why The Department put someone like Mrs. S in charge of this mission. She comes off as a hardass, but she\u2019s really a softie, and even though Jake is her favorite, she loves us all. I\u2019d ask you reading this why she was assigned to us, but it would take you too long to get back to me for it to be worth it.\nNow that it\u2019s been so long into this trip, I find myself thinking about our goal more and more. Our objective. This big secret that The Department is keeping for us. From us.\nGwen thinks that they\u2019re sending us to some new galaxy to study planets. Jake thinks that we\u2019re going to meet aliens that The Department has already made contact with. Once we asked Mrs. S where she thought we were going, but she just smiled at us and said, \u201cit\u2019s a surprise.\u201d Which made us think that even she doesn\u2019t know what we\u2019re doing here.\nI don\u2019t know what I think. It must be something kind of boring, because if it was important or exciting they\u2019d send actual astronauts and not high school kids. Sometimes I think that maybe there isn\u2019t anything we\u2019re heading towards; The Department just wanted an excuse to get rid of us.\nTheir daily letters to us (which were all sent months or years ago) sound cheery, but they also don\u2019t reveal anything about what\u2019s going on back on the planet.\nI miss home. I miss the ground, and I miss my mom. We all do.\nNico Soto says he doesn\u2019t miss anyone, except I\u2019ve seen him staring at a photograph of his little brother late at night, so he\u2019s a liar. I don\u2019t know what Nico did to get here, onto the Allure, but I suspect I\u2019ll find out eventually. We\u2019re stuck with each other for about\u2026forever, as far as we know.\nI think I am going to end this log here. Gwen stole some cheese from the kitchen this morning while everyone was eating breakfast so we\u2019re going to try to make grilled cheese sandwiches, or as close to good grilled cheese sandwiches as we can make with freeze-dried space bread and an electric stove. Don\u2019t tell Mrs. S!\nLooking forward to writing to you again tomorrow. As always.",

        "raw_content": "Ayres Auto Parts\nIn the late 1920s, South Virginia Street was heeding the siren call of the automobile age. Service stations, dealers, and repair shops were popping up all along the thoroughfare, gradually adding a different character to the formerly quiet stretch of road.\nConstructed in 1929, the beautifully patterned brick building at 761 South Virginia started out as Nevada Auto Service, Reno\u2019s authorized Buick service provider. Bob Nelson managed the shop, which he ran until the late 1940s. In later years, he lived in the apartment upstairs. From 1950 through the late 1960s, the ground floor was the home of Ayres Auto Parts and, later, to a number of other auto supply stores.\nIn 1963 or 1964, the 777 Motel was constructed next door, replacing a used car lot of the same name. That history accounts for the partially covered \u201c777\u201d and downward arrow painted on the south-facing wall this building shares with the newer motel.\nA wood frame duplex long occupied the lot just north of the building, and burned down in 1950. It was never rebuilt, and in later years the site was dedicated to used car sales.\nTree-lined thoroughfare: A photo taken from across the street reveals the neighborhood's residential past.

ISSN 0360-1315\nOfficial URL: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.compedu.2006.02.004\nThe two separate projects described have examined how teachers exploit computer-based technologies in supporting learning of science at secondary level. This paper examines how pedagogical approaches associated with these technological tools are adapted to both the cognitive and structuring resources available in the classroom setting. Four teachers participated in the first study, undertaken as part of the InterActive Education project in Bristol; all of them used multimedia simulations in their lessons. The second study presented was part of the wider SET-IT project in Cambridge; 11 teachers in eight schools were observed using multimedia simulations, data logging tools and interactive whiteboards. Teachers were interviewed in all cases to elicit their pedagogical thinking about their classroom use of ICT. The findings suggest that teachers are moving away from only using \u2018real\u2019 experiments in their practice. They are exploring the use of technologies to encourage students to engage in \u201cWhat If\u201d explorations where the outcomes of \u2018virtual\u2019 experiments can be immediately accessed, for example through using a simulation. However, this type of activity can serve just as a mechanism for revealing \u2013 and indeed reinforcing \u2013 students\u2019 informal conceptions if cognitive conflict is not generated or remains unresolved. The teachers in our studies used simulations, data logging, projected animations and other dynamic digital resources as tools to encourage and support prediction and to demonstrate scientific concepts and physical processes \u2013 thereby \u2018bridging the gap\u2019 between scientific and informal knowledge. They also integrated technology carefully with other practical activities so as to support stepwise knowledge building, consolidation and application. Research of this kind has design implications for both curriculum-related activities and emerging computer-based learning technologies, in terms of helping us to understand how teachers capitalise upon the technology available in supporting students to construct links between scientific theory and empirical evidence.\napplications in subject areas, pedagogical issues, secondary education, simulations, teaching/learning strategies",

Sentences which ranged from six months to life imprisonment were imposed by courts in Equateur, Bas Congo, Kasai Occidental, Katanga, Maniema and Orientale provinces.\nSince 2012, the Minister of Justice and Human Rights has engaged in a series of activities across the country to sensitize defense and security forces, judicial authorities and civil society actors on the content of the law and to ensure its effective implementation. (\u2026)\n\u201cI am pleased with the considerable progress which has been accomplished by the government in order to ensure conformity with national law and international standards and to put an end to the cycle of impunity which prevails for acts of torture\u201d, said Juan E. Mendez, Special Rapporteur on torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment. (\u2026)\nInvestigations into acts of torture and effective prosecutions of perpetrators by Congolese judicial authorities should dissuade potential perpetrators from committing extremely grave cases of torture.

        "raw_content": "Part-Time Jobs To Consider For Retirees\nWith the current economic situation still not getting any better coming out from its worse conditions several years ago, it may be quite difficult for retirees to fully depend on their retirement fund to get by indefinitely. The lucky set may be fortunate to have their retirement fund last them 10 to 20 years. But for most of the upcoming retirees, their funds may only last them a few years before it may run out.\nWhen faced with such a situation, it may be necessary for some people who are about to retire to look for additional sources of income to supplant their retirement fund in order for it to last longer. One of the best options available is to get a part-time job, especially for those retirees who still has the capacity and the ability to do it in their retirement years. Here are some of the part-time jobs that retirees may consider having.\nIf you have an extensive experience on a certain industry, you can become a freelance consultant. There are many firms which may require the services of an experienced consultant on a project basis. Your job experience may be quite useful in this instance and it may give you a means to earn additional income during your retirement. And even better, you don\u2019t have to do it on a regular basis or even take up a majority of your retirement.\nTeaching and Tutoring Jobs\nThere are many organizations that may look for instructors for non-credit classes. There are also enrichment classes that hire instructors with extensive experience in a certain industry as the only important requirement. Tutoring services may also be a good employment opportunity for retirees with tutoring skills and a college degree to back it up.\nThere are quite a lot of seasonal and part-time work available for retirees in government. It is probably one of the best sources of part-time jobs where age discrimination may be less likely encountered. Retirees can try and inquire at their local, city or state government agencies in order to find out more about them.\nOne other option for retirees to have some added source of income is to try and build an online business. It may not necessarily be selling stuff that you no longer need around the home on eBay or on Craigslist. It may be quite easy for retirees to set up a website about a certain niche market or write up a blog. Other options include selling ad space on the website if it already begins to catch a considerable amount of traffic. This will be another potential income source that retirees may consider exploring.\nPosted by Ardent Editor on Jun 5 2011 in Retirement Life Tags: freelance consultant, government jobs, part time jobs, retiree part time jobs, retirement fund, retirement jobs, sources of income",

        "title": "National rice markets - Ricepedia",
        "raw_content": "The price of rice is a key variable for farmers, consumers, and governments in most of Asia, and in many other parts of the world. Although the world market price of rice has declined over time, domestic prices are more relevant for farmers and consumers.\nThere is wide variability in the domestic price of rice among different countries, with some countries \u2013 Japan, Korea, Turkmenistan, and Brunei \u2013 having extraordinarily high domestic prices that are at least seven times the median price of $239 per ton. Higher GDP per capita and higher proportions of imports in domestic consumption are both associated with higher domestic prices.\nTo protect national rice markets from volatility in the international market, governments sometimes intervene, raising domestic rice prices above world prices when world prices are low and vice versa when world prices are high. The level of state involvement in Asia reflects the importance of rice to human nutrition and food security. While the private sector plays a leading role in most countries, agencies such as BULOG in Indonesia, the NFA in the Philippines, VINAFOOD in Vietnam and the Food Corporation of India are all heavily involved in purchasing of paddy from farmers or rice from mills and in distributing rice to poorer people. BULOG and NFA monopolise rice imports into their countries while VINAFOOD controls all exports from Vietnam.\nThe rice price dilemma: welfare effects of domestic price policies\nIn order to understand the importance of higher rice prices for welfare, poverty, and food security, it is first important to distinguish between net rice producers and net rice consumers. A net rice producer is someone for whom total sales of rice to the market exceed total purchases of rice from the market, whereas, for a net rice consumer, the reverse is true. Net rice consumers will generally be hurt by higher rice prices, while net rice producers will benefit.\nIt is also true that whether a given household is a net rice producer or consumer depends on market prices. Higher prices will discourage consumption, encourage more production, and possibly convert some households from net consumers to net producers. Lower prices could do the opposite. Higher rice prices will substantially hurt poor net rice consumers because rice is typically a larger share of expenditures for the poor. In such circumstances, rice price increases can have important effects on effective purchasing power, even if they do not directly affect nominal income per se. Farmers who are net food producers are likely to benefit from higher prices, which, other things being equal, will tend to increase their incomes. Since many farmers are poor, higher prices could help to alleviate poverty and improve food security.\nAnother potentially important effect of rice prices occurs in labor markets. Higher rice prices, by stimulating the demand for unskilled labor in rural areas, can result in a long-run increase in rural wages, thereby benefiting wage labor households in addition to self-employed farmers. The net effect of higher food prices on welfare and poverty at the country level will thus depend on socioeconomic structures and the national net trade position (as well as labor market outcomes). Positive impacts of higher prices are much more likely in exporting nations, since a greater percentage of households are probably net producers. But, among rice importers, the impacts on welfare and poverty of higher prices are more uniformly negative. In addition to the short-term adverse effects of high rice prices on poverty, high rice prices also raise concerns about long-term economic growth in countries where rice is the staple food. Although there is no solid evidence in this regard, high rice prices (in countries that choose to adopt such a policy) might end up reducing their international economic competitiveness by raising the price of the wage good, thus making wage rates less competitive and discouraging investment in labor-intensive employment that promotes long-term economic growth. High rice prices may also impede diversification into labor- intensive higher-value crops.\nPrice policy options for the future\nIn general, it seems hard to justify sustained departures of average domestic prices from world market prices on either efficiency or equity grounds. Sustained deviations from the world price can lead to large misallocations of scarce resources that increase with the square of the deviation from the world price, meaning that losses increase exponentially as the deviation gets larger. In terms of dynamic efficiency, attempts to consistently enforce a domestic price higher than the world price may lock farmers into rice and out of more dynamic high-value crops, and they may lose the ability to learn and adjust dynamically to changing market conditions, a skill that will be of increasing importance for farmer- entrepreneurs in the future. Consistent price differentials also encourage corruption.\nThe world rice crisis of 2008 will undoubtedly encourage many governments to strive for self-sufficiency using higher rice prices. But, given the welfare costs to the poor of high prices, investments in agricultural research and infrastructure so as to improve agricultural productivity and markets would seem to be a far superior way to achieve self- sufficiency. One policy option would be to offset high producer support prices with consumer subsidies targeted to the poor, but this faces at least two major problems. First, it is very difficult administratively to target the poor. Second, raising producer prices above market levels and lowering consumer prices below market levels incurs large fiscal costs (especially in poor countries) that crowd out spending on public goods, thus impairing the long-run growth of the economy. The case for stabilizing prices around the long-term trend of world prices seems stronger, although it is still very controversial among economists and there is no widespread agreement on this issue.\nThe central question is how to absorb the instability in world supply and demand that leads to changing world market prices. Trade-based domestic price stabilization policies, if successful, shield domestic producers and consumers from that instability, but at the cost of affecting world market prices and making them more unstable. Trade-based stabilization policies can lead to corruption as well, especially when the government plays a major role in conducting trade. Holding large stocks can provide a buffer, but the carrying costs of stocks can be very large, even without taking into account the quality deterioration of grain in storage. Safety net programs are a possible solution, but they place large administrative demands on governments, can have problems achieving wide coverage, and may need to be redesigned to serve transitory instead of chronic needs. Politically, it is hard to imagine that a poor country could tolerate the wide swings in income distribution that would result if domestic prices followed world prices on a month-to-month basis. As a result, there is no realistic chance that governments will simply abandon stable food price policies any time soon. Given this reality, it makes sense to explore ways to make price stabilization more cost-effective. This is especially important because the benefits of stabilization decline as economies grow and the importance of rice to the economy declines.\nChanges in demography and the rice economy\nAs economies develop, the rural sector undergoes major changes. The younger members of rural communities, particularly men, leave in search of jobs in urban areas or overseas and send remittances back to their rural homes. These rural economies are becoming older and more feminized, and this trend is likely to continue. In some countries, especially in Africa, HIV/AIDS is also exacting a toll on the rural labor force. As a consequence, labor availability is declining and wages are increasing in many rice-growing areas. Farm employment is less attractive, and labor is harder to find at peak periods for key operations, such as transplanting, weeding, and harvesting. With rising wages and labor shortages, mechanization is becoming more common for both land preparation and harvesting, especially in irrigated areas. Also, farmers are shifting from hand weeding to the use of herbicides, and from transplanting to direct seeding. By the late 1990s, an estimated one-fifth of the rice area in Asia was direct seeded, and this proportion is expected to rise.",

        "raw_content": "GEOFFREY'S STORY\nMandy Tanses November 28, 1999\nIt was 5:00 a.m. on the morning of September 16, 1978 and my water broke. There was a wedding scheduled that day for my mother to attend. I called my mother and said, \"Can you come over to watch Sarah while we go to the hospital?\" Sarah is Geoff's older sister by 27 months, and with no questions asked, my mother watched Sarah and we knew that Grandma's word was good. At that time we didn't know if we would be having a girl or a boy. We already had a girl and I think the news of having a boy was wonderfully overwhelming. I delivered Geoffrey Patrick Tanses and our family was complete.\nGeoffrey was always a screamer when he was a baby. We couldn't figure out why he would cry and scream every night at about 6:00 p.m. I finally realized that I had his eating and nap schedules the same as Sarah's and that wasn't working for him. When I adjusted Geoffrey's schedule to his little body, he was a wonderfully happy and quiet baby. He and Sarah loved to play with each other, and they were always smiling and laughing together. Sarah adored Geoffrey as her little brother and wanted to help with him in anyway she could. And she did. They were extremely close and protective of each other from a very young age.\nBoth of my children had a suburban, middle class upbringing and I feel that this is a rarity for so many young people today. They never gave my husband and me any major trouble except for a \"bash\" that happened because, innocently, Sarah let a handful of people know that her Dad and I weren't going to be home. Word got around and it was a disaster for Sarah. Also, one night my husband and I went to a St. Patrick's Day Dinner Dance and Geoff knew we would not be home for a good six to eight hours. We were only about one mile from home and I happened to get a run in my stockings so my husband ran home to get a new pair of stockings for me. When he got to the house he found Geoff and his friends socially engaged in alcohol and conversation. They were all approximately 17 years old. They were shooed out of the house and Geoff was told to stay home. Other than those events, Sarah and Geoff were the average kids.\nWhen I say average, I mean, Geoff got caught drinking underage about three times and had to go to Teen Court and they both tried pot and they both confessed a few other things. Sometimes I didn't want to hear as much as they told me, but my kids were always honest with me. I think that these instances were typical of the majority of kids their age. Both Sarah and Geoff had after school jobs and it seems to me they both were normal, productive individuals as teenagers and young adults with a good work ethic. Anything they did that \"went against the grain\" was never a \"problem.\"\nSince Sarah was three grades ahead of Geoff, during high school they didn't always have the same views, beliefs, interests, or friends. They went through the \"normal\" sibling rivalry that I think is common between a brother and sister; it certainly was for my brother and me, so I can relate to my kids' relationship. It seems they both came into agreement on life issues after Geoff graduated in 1997. I do know that they always loved, cared, and stood up for each other.\nGeoff took a year off after high school. He worked full time so that he could save money to go to Purdue University Calumet Campus. The relationship he had been seriously involved in was reduced to being just friends. He was devastated by this, but seemed to be handling it. Cori and Geoff still talked on the phone and he would see her and help if she needed something. He was always accommodating, no matter what. I think he tried so hard to \"just be friends\" but, I know he always had hope that they would get back together. She was the love of his life.\nIt was about one or two months before he died that he started dating a girl named Molly. He had known her for a few years during high school. He cared about Molly because of the person she was, and at the same time tried desperately to forget the past relationship.\nOn June 6, 1999, Geoff and his friend Alex went to a graduation party for a friend of theirs. When they walked into the party Geoff saw his ex-girlfriend, Cori with a new boyfriend. I guess deep down in his soul he never could forget her and he was dead two hours later. I'm sure Cori has suffered the loss of Geoff, too.\nTo our knowledge and understanding, Geoff dropped Alex off and said, \"I'll talk to you in the morning.\" It seems to me that he had every intention of doing that. This was about 9:30 p.m. Geoff came home and came downstairs to the family room where his Dad and I were and said, \"Did anyone call me?\" We said, \"No.\" He checked the Caller ID and headed upstairs to his room, so we thought. I think that was about 10:15 or 10:30.\nNow I think that between the time he came to our house and left again, something happened, something that sent him over the edge. It is not clear and probably will never be clear to us. Only to the people if any that saw him. Now we know that he went into his room, tore a piece of paper out of his notebook and wrote, \"I'm Sorry, Geoff.\" Then he went into our room, got his dad's gun out of the dresser, came downstairs, smiled at his sister Sarah and her girlfriend Katie and left the house. He drove to the park in our subdivision (only about a mile away) and shot himself in the right temple.\nOn June 7, 1999 at 2:30 a.m., my husband and I were rustled out of bed by the doorbell. I thought that either Sarah or Geoff forgot their keys. All I remember is my husband saying, \"Oh my God Mandy, It's the police.\" I ran downstairs and was faced by two police officers, a detective, and a police chaplain. I think they said, \"We're very sorry, but we found your son at Meadows Park in his car dead and it appears to be suicide.\" I just remember ending up on our dining room floor. I don't remember how I got there, but the chaplain was trying to pick me up.\nThe news that night changed our lives forever. I will never be the same person I was and I know that my husband, our daughter, Sarah and Geoff's grandma, Joan will never be the same. We miss Geoffrey so much and we will always wonder why Geoffrey decided to do this. I have a hard time believing that we will have to live without him for the rest of our lives. It is inconceivable to me that my son could do this. He was, in our eyes, the perfect son with the average imperfections. Nobody is perfect, but, Geoff was about as close to perfect as a kid or young person these days could be.\nWe have and will continue to grieve in our own ways. Grandma Joan grieved for her child (me) and her grandson at the same time. Sarah and Geoff had a lot of the same friends, so when Sarah goes out it is hard for her to see all their friends getting on with their lives when her brother is gone. It makes her feel so bad. We cry together many times. My husband cries on and off, but he makes sure he keeps so busy that he actually blocks it out of his mind. I said to him one day, \"Tell me how you block it out so I can do that,\" but naturally he didn't have an answer and I am sure it wouldn't have worked for me. Certain things he sees triggers the sadness and reality of it, and I think he grieves a little more each time.\nI myself was in a thick fog from June 7, 1999 for months and months. Still in a fog, I finally went back to work on October 4, 1999 which made my mind sway in a different direction, although Geoff (and the fog) was right there in my mind all day. I just didn't have a chance to dwell on it, so the work was a healthy diversion. I still live one day at a time and probably always will until I die. I have okay days and I have bad days. The sad thing is, I never have good days or normal days. Those days are gone forever. If Geoffrey had known this, he would still be here. He would never have hurt us this bad. Going forward in my life anything that happens to me, no matter how tragic, will never compare to the devastation I feel without Geoffrey. Everything else will pale in comparison.\nTo My Dearest Geoff, .......My world was Dad, Sarah and you and now that you are gone my world is incomplete forever. There will always be a huge piece missing in my life that can never be replaced. I wish I could have eased the hurt so that you were still here with us, but I am so sorry I didn't recognize the pain you were in. I would have done anything to have taken it away. I love you forever. Until we meet again, Love Mom, Dad, Sarah & Grandma.\nMandy Tanses",

        "raw_content": "Robert Sandberg \u2013 A Brief Bio\nMonta\u00f1a de Oro \u2013 Morro Bay, CA\nBefore retiring in 2015 and moving to Sonora in northern California in May 2016, I was working and living in the Los Angeles area where I had been living since moving from Chicago in 1983. I spent the first 33 years of my life living in the northwest side of Chicago and the suburbs of Norridge, Des Plaines, and Evanston. I will always have fond memories of Chicago, especially Evanston and Rogers Park where I lived while attending Northwestern.\nAfter attending various grade schools in Chicago and Ridgewood High School in suburban Norridge, I graduated in 1968 and enrolled at Northwestern University in Evanston, Illinois as a chemistry/pre-med major. At the end of my sophomore year, I changed my major to anthropology. It was the early \u201970s: Woodstock was well on its way to becoming a legend; Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, and James Morrison made their individual, tragic, way-too-soon, exits. In May 1970 the Kent State massacre sobered the nation. Just a day or two later I made my way to Washington D.C. to protest the war. But that\u2019s another story.\nI earned all my degrees at Northwestern: B.A. in Anthropology, M.A.T. in Education, M.A. in 18th and 20th Century Literature in English, and, finally, in 1989, a Ph.D. in English. I wrote my dissertation on a volume of combined verse and prose that Herman Melville was working on during the last 10 or so years of his life. While working with the manuscripts at Harvard\u2019s Houghton Library in the summer of 1981, I came across eight penciled manuscript pages of a preface Melville had written for the volume of combined poetry and prose that I was working on. This preface, \u201cHouse of the Tragic Poet,\u201d had never before been transcribed, let alone published. It was published for the first time as part of my dissertation.\nI met my wife, Marcia, on New Year\u2019s Eve, 1982, and, in June 1983, having finished all course-work for my Ph.D., I moved from Chicago to Alhambra, a suburb of LA. We got married that December. Thirty three years later, Marcia is cuter than ever, can always make me laugh, and is still my best friend. We have two wonderful children; Tim was born in 1985 and Linny in 1988. In 1984 I began teaching English in Southern California high schools. In 1995, while continuing to teach literature and composition in the Los Angeles Unified School District, I became an instructional technology coordinator and technology consultant for several nearby schools. In 1998 I began teaching education technology courses in the Charter College of Education at California State University, Los Angeles.\nI became a grandfather in 2014 when Tim and Wendy had Loretta. Marcia and I retired in 2015 and in May 2016 moved to Sonora where we are now enjoying life living on .8 acres in a 115 year old farm house in rural northern California, \u201cMotherlode Country,\u201d on the western slope of the Sierra Nevada just an hour away from Yosemite. Tim, Wendy, and Loretta, and Lin and Russell can visit us easily and the lakes, hiking trails, and time away from the big city will give them many reasons to do so.\nThe night sky here in Sonora is really dark, almost as dark as the night sky in Joshua Tree, so I will really enjoy my telescope and giant binoculars.\nIn the event that our digital paths never cross again, all my best wishes for success, health, and happiness.\nBob Sandberg",

I meant 'there's a nice knock-down argument for you!'\n\"But 'glitch genealogy' doesn't mean 'a nice knock-down argument',\" Alice objected.\nAlice was too much puzzled to say anything, so after a minute Humpty Dumpty began again.\n\"They've a temper, some of them \u2014particularly verbs, they're the proudest \u2014 adjectives you can do anything with, but not verbs \u2014 however, I can manage the whole lot! Impenetrability! That's what I say!\"\nfrom \"through the looking glass\" by Lewis Carroll (1871). But of course here i changed 'glory' for 'glitch history'.\nAn un-/birthday (originally written un-birthday) is an event that can be celebrated on any day that is not the (person's) birthday.

Glitch studies is a studies of change. The \u2018historical continuity\u2019 of glitch is one of breaks. In fact, there is no such thing as a \u2018glitch art continuum\u2019 or a \u2018first work\u2019 (or form) of glitch art Or 'last work'. (I wonder if this is why there is still no end to the end of Dither D\u00d8\u00d8M).\nTo celebrate the no time/aging of glitch time Nick Briz and I organized the [Pre][P0st] Glitch Un/B!rthday Bash !i at TRITRIANGLE in Chicago last April, to celebrate GLITCHs' forever un-/birthday.\nThat night, TriTriangle hosted performances by Saskrotch\ufeff, djJon Satrom\ufeff, Ted Davis, myself and some of Dither D\u00d8\u00d8M - the dirty new media enda of timez aware artform that knows no time but an never-ending end.

This rally is for female participants only and this year promises to surprise the participants with a variety of novelties. Organised by the Association \"Event agency\".\nBriefly about the rally. Each year so far, the rally has started in Riga, and covered a variety of known and lesser known places in the direction of Riga and back. However, this year the start will be from two towns (both approximately 100 km from Riga) at the same time; there will be two routes - Vidzeme and Zemgale, the ladies will get to know more about all four Latvian regions along the way, and will finish in Riga, at shopping and entertainment centre, \"Riga Plaza\". The route is planned about 300 to 350 km long, and there will be a series of tasks to complete at checkpoints on the way to the finish. For the first time, participants will plan their own route and tactically work out which of the potential checkpoints are worth visiting for better results.\nNot all the information about the rally will be disclosed immediately, the event organisers, participants and other interested parties will be informed about the upcoming \"Women's Day rally\" gradually, so that every day is full of surprises.\nWith pleasure and pride we introduce our Pink Train Foundation team that will participate in this year's rally, to promote public understanding and awareness of breast cancer and to raise funds to pay for the necessary rehabilitation measures for women with breast cancer.\nPhoto from the right - Dzintra Karklins (driver), Agita Kalnins (co-driver) Gita Gintere Kikuste (team member) \u2013 missing from the photo is Liene Raumane (team member). This will be the team\u2019s fourth rally; a year ago they took the honourable 52nd place out of 600 teams. We invite you to support the team by donating the sum of EUR 5, EUR 15, EUR 25, EUR 50 or more to achieve the objectives of the Foundation.

        "title": "Reverse Mortgages: 7 Common Misconceptions - R TeamNW",
        "raw_content": "Reverse Mortgages: 7 Common Misconceptions\n(TNS)\u2014Federal Housing Administration-backed home equity conversion mortgages, or HECMs, are accessible to homeowners 62 and older. These reverse mortgage loans allow older Americans to tap into a portion of their equity to help supplement retirement income.\nWith a reverse mortgage loan, homeowners aren\u2019t required to make monthly mortgage payments, but do need to continue paying for property taxes, homeowners insurance, home maintenance costs and otherwise comply with the terms of the loan. Just like a conventional home mortgage loan, if the homeowner defaults on the loan, or doesn\u2019t comply with the terms, the borrower may face foreclosure.\nHere are seven of the most common reverse mortgage misconceptions.\n1. Reverse mortgage loans are a scam.\nActually, today\u2019s reverse mortgage loans are quite viable instruments and the FHA-insured HECM loans are safer than ever. These loans are unique because payment of the balance is deferred until the last eligible borrower or non-borrowing spouse leaves the home, and often the sale of the house is used to pay the loan balance.\nA reverse mortgage loan is highly regulated, just like most financial products. To qualify:\n\u2022 All borrowers must be 62 years or older.\n\u2022 The home must be the borrower\u2019s primary residence.\n\u2022 The borrower must have enough equity in the home to qualify.\n\u2022 The borrower must undergo a financial assessment to ensure capability and willingness to continue paying for property taxes, homeowners insurance and home maintenance.\n2. A reverse mortgage loan is a loan of last resort.\nReverse mortgage loans used to be thought of as a last-ditch effort to get cash while retired. While many financial products are created for a single purpose, reverse mortgage loans are not \u201cone size fits all.\u201d Homeowners have the flexibility to use a reverse mortgage loan in several different ways, such as:\n\u2022 Monthly installments\n\u2022 Line of credit\n3. My spouse or I can be thrown out of the house when one of us dies.\nWith a HECM reverse mortgage loan, borrowers still retain ownership of the home as long as they continue to pay for home maintenance, property taxes and homeowners insurance, and meet the terms of the loan. As with any loan, including traditional mortgages, if the borrower does not comply with loan terms, such as paying for property taxes, then the property can be subject to foreclosure.\nHECM reverse mortgage loans have safeguards that can help ensure that the borrower will be able to fulfill the loan terms for the life of the loan, including:\n\u2022 Eligible non-borrowing spouses are allowed to remain in the home after the borrower of a HECM reverse mortgage loan passes away.\n\u2022 The loan is non-recourse, meaning the lender cannot collect more than the value of the home and the home is the only asset that can be used as collateral.\n\u2022 Prospective borrowers are required to undergo independent third-party reverse mortgage counseling to ensure they understand the fine print, what they can expect throughout the loan process, what their responsibilities are and what other options might be available.\n\u2022 The FHA establishes caps on the amount of money that can be drawn during the first year of the loan to help ensure that proceeds last as long as a borrower needs them.\n4. Reverse mortgage loans come with expensive fees and interest.\nAs with any conventional home mortgage loan, there are fees that vary depending on the value of the home, loan terms, market conditions and interest rates.\nInterest rates and fees are calculated based on a number of factors, such as:\n\u2022 The borrower\u2019s age\n\u2022 The home\u2019s value\n\u2022 The property\u2019s ZIP code\n\u2022 Any existing mortgage balance or liens\n\u2022 Number of expected years in the house\nA reverse mortgage professional can help determine what the exact interest rates and associated fees are and will disclose your interest rate and fees before the loan is finalized.\n5. Your home has to be free and clear to qualify.\nAccording to FHA, to be eligible for a HECM reverse mortgage loan, you either need to own your home outright or hold enough equity to pay off the balance with a reverse mortgage. The balance you are allowed to have may vary depending on the home\u2019s value, borrower\u2019s age, and the loan\u2019s interest rate, among other factors.\nOne of the most important advantages of a reverse mortgage loan is the ability to pay off the existing mortgage and eliminate monthly mortgage payments. Paying off existing mortgages is also required as part of the reverse mortgage loan process.\n6. The heirs will be responsible for paying back the loan.\nWhen the last surviving borrower or non-borrowing spouse dies, an heir or the executor of the estate has the option to sell the property and use the proceeds to repay the loan. In this case, the remaining proceeds from the sale can be split among the heirs. The heirs also have the option to repay or refinance the loan and keep the home in the family.\nAn important feature of the loan is that because a reverse mortgage is a non-recourse loan, the home is the only collateral that the lender may access to pay off the loan balance. If the sale of the home does not cover the entire loan balance, then the FHA pays the difference.\n7. The bank owns your home.\nWith a reverse mortgage, the borrower retains ownership and the loan is secured by a lien on the home. The borrower does not relinquish ownership using a reverse mortgage loan, but rather, borrows against the value of the home\u2019s equity. As long as you maintain the home, pay property taxes and insurance and otherwise obey the loan\u2019s terms, you continue to own your property.\nThe post Reverse Mortgages: 7 Common Misconceptions appeared first on RISMedia.\nfrom Buying/Selling | RISMedia http://ift.tt/2jwaWri",

        "title": "Michael Phillip Cash - Collision: The Battle For Darracia",
        "raw_content": "Michael Phillip Cash - Collision: The Battle For Darracia\n4. Collision: The Battle For Darracia by Michael Phillip Cash (2014)\nThe Battle For Darracia Saga Book 2\nWhere did it come from? Many thanks to Michael Phillip Cash and to Red Feather Publishing for sending me a copy of this book to read.\nWhy do I have it? I like science fiction and have read and enjoyed several books by this author in the past.\nThe Battle For Darracia Saga continues as a majority of the key characters find themselves at a soul-defining crossroads for themselves and their entire planet. The tensions between the social classes on the planet of Darracia have now reached their respective boiling points. Peace talks between the Darracians and their nearest neighbors the Quyroo people have essentially collapsed with the assassination of the Quyroo ambassador. Crown Prince V'sair's villainous uncle Staf Nuen has also attempted to stage a coup to seize his brother's throne, but although King Drakko was assassinated and Staf Nuen escaped, his conspirators were captured and brought to justice.\nAs Darracia is being rocked by the waves of violence and societal turmoil, certain members of the royal family find themselves separated from each other and spread throughout the galaxy searching for a meaning to the death of a much beloved and benevolent monarch. Shaken by his father's assassination - and unsure how capable he will be in ruling a kingdom that he views as still belonging to the late king - Prince V'sair struggles to hold the fractured kingdom together. Despite being surrounded by many of his father's most trusted advisers, V'sair still feels extraordinarily isolated and alone without so many of his loved ones by his side.\nV'sair's mother, Queen Reminda's own faith in the elusive Elements that have guided Darracians for centuries has been shaken to its very foundations. Although she grieves the loss of her husband, she remains steadfast in her support of her son as he contemplates his upcoming coronation. V'sair's stepbrother Zayden has spent much of the past year since his father's death searching for his uncle's whereabouts. He is on a self-imposed mission of vengeance - ranging from one side of the solar system to the other - determined to bring Staf Nuen back to Darracia to face justice; or die trying.\nReminda's handmaiden Tulani is trying to navigate both of her worlds, attempting to find the best way to bring them together. While she essentially grew up in service to the Darracian royal family - Tulani is still a Quyroo - and her family lineage requires that she leaves service to the Darracians to begin training among her own people. Tulani's grandmother Bobbien is in fact the High Priestess of her tribe, and she wants her granddaughter to succeed her. Tulani loves her grandmother very much and feels obligated to fulfill Bobbien's wishes; but she is also devastated to be leaving behind Reminda and V'sair - the only family she has ever really known.\nThe villainous Staf Nuen has gone into hiding after orchestrating the initial coup. Having lost his wife, only son, and youngest daughter in the coup, Staf Nuen realizes that his own life is essentially forfeit if Zayden ever finds him. Although that coup wasn't entirely successful - and his cohorts were dealt with appropriately - Staf Nuen is still determined to form other nefarious alliances with certain diabolical new allies elsewhere in the galaxy.\nHowever, like the vibrant comet zipping across the horizon, all the various factions of Darracian society are heading into a direct collision course. They are heading along a path that will test the power of their belief in themselves, their planet, and ultimately, in the power of the Elements that have guided them for centuries. This is a battle that will test the boundaries of their faith and challenge the balance of power.\nI must say that I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book. While the plot definitely reminded me of Star Wars, the story was intriguing and highly original. I avidly wanted to know what happened next. I look forward to reading the conclusion to this trilogy; and give this book a definite A+!",

        "raw_content": "Discussion on Zakia Jafri's protest Petition,\nLiterature Hall. IIC Annexe, India International Centre\nOn 7th of May 2013 SAHMAT and Communalism Combat together organised a discussion on the protest petiton filed by Zakia Jafri. She has been assisted in her legal endeavours by the Mumbai-based by Citizens for Justice and Peace .The interaction with senior representatives of the political class and journalists was held at India International Centre, New Delhi. People from varied walks of life participated in the discussion and put forward different viewpoints on the issue of communalism in general and in particular what happened in 2002 in the state of Gujarat and the role of the state administration in conspiring to allow violence to spread. The audience comprised of lawyers, journalists,teachers among others. A cross section of political parties also got represented with the presence of D.P. Tripathi, Brinda Karat, Mani Shankar Aiyer, A.B. Bardhan, Sitaram Yechury; all of whom participated in the discussion and made it more lively and enriching. Zakia Jafri, her son Tanvir Jafri and former DGP Gujarat, RB Sreekumar particpated in the interaction.\nRam Rehman initiated the proceedings by giving a short introduction that was one in a series of public hearings, protests and discussions organised by SAHMAT along with Communalism Combat and CJP since 2002. Teesta Setalvad initiated the discussion. She gave a brief outline of the evidences that were available but ignored by the Special Investigation Team (SIT). She then argued that the Gujarat pogrom was distinct from other acts of communal violence by the sheer depth of orchestration and connivance by sections of the government and administration. Setalvad in her arguments laid bare the fact that the Gujarat pogrom was preceded by several warnings given to the home ministryadministration by the State Intelligence Bureau (SIB) that were laid bare by the affidavits of former ADGP Intelligence, RB Sreekumar. These signals were deliberately ignored by the government. She underlined the fact that SIT during the course of its investigations turned a complete blind eye to documentary evidences that pointed to the deliberate neutralisation of the neutralisation including evidence from the mobile records, PCR (police control room messages) and SIB messaged. She put forth the point that various methods were used to mobilize the crowds along communal lines especially the use of provocative hate speech and hate writing including by the chief minister, senior functionaries and frontmen of the Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP). In her short introduction she gave details of the pogrom and the incidents which preceded the actual period of killings. She appealed for debates or interactive sessions on these issue to enable the political class conscious of this menace. The fact that Zakia Jafri has fought bravely the Gujarat administration and has withstood all kinds of threats was also highlighted by her. Before concluding Setalvad also cautioned that the scope of discussion should be broadened to communal mobilisation and its portents across the country and should not remained focus not only on what happened in Gujarat in 2002.\nD.P. Tripathi in his short speech elaborated upon the wider communalisation of the polity and administration in Gujarat, within which the communal mobilisation and 2002 carnage needed to be located. He congratulated Zakia Jafri on her bravery and courage. In this context he shared discussions he had had, in 1985 with former Gujarat chief minister, Madhav Rao Solanki who had predicted that the aggressive anti-reservation agitation would eventually take a sharp anti-minority, communal term. Solanki, an extremely progressive politician had predicted aggressive hindu mobilisation. He also reminisced about his meeting with Ahsan Jafri . This was way back in 1985. He concluded by arguing forcefully that it is the weakness of secular forces which has allowed phenomena like Bal Thackeray and Narendra Modi to rise and grow, and the communal mobilization of the sort witnessed in recent times in Gujarat and other parts of the country to take place.\nBrinda Karat applauded the courage of conviction of Zakia Jafri and her family for waging this legal battle which is both significant and a rallying point for secular forces in the country. The absence of professionalism in the investigation by the Special Investigation Team (SIT) into the conspiracy and widespread communal violence in Gujarat, was specially also highlighted by Karat. She underlined the point that SIT has functioned in a non-transparent and unaccountable manner deliberately concealing evidence that exposed the governance by Modi and his government. It has therefore been a struggle to bring these documents into the public domain. Now that these are available and have been analysed threadbare in the Zakia Jafri protest petition, the secular forces need to disseminate this information to explode the bubble of good governance that is being so brazenly claimed by the government of Gujarat. With more than ample evidence of Narendra Modi\u2019s complicity in what happened in his state in 2002, he had no right to continue as chief minister nor harbour intentions of becoming prime minister, stressed Karat. Modi, she stressed, has violated all the minimum norms of governance but despite this he and his party continue to project him, unashamedly. Karat also appreciated the role played by Teesta Setalvad at great personal risk and deplored the attacks made on her. In her speech Karat also reminded all those present that it had been the Left parties who had taken a direct political stand on the issue, demanding his resignation. She also emphasised that the documents that are now part of the protest petition, have brought out some important facts about what actually happened in those days of February and March in 2002 in the state of Gujarat and these need to be disseminated widely. Karat also pointed out the urgent need to link the battle against communalism with movements for social justice. She also mentioned that secularism combined with a strong political class, executive and judicial system is an important pre-requisite for fighting the menace of communalism. She said that it is illogical to believe that the issue communal mobilization can be isolated from that of electoral reform. The two issues are intricately related to each other.\nKamaal Farooqui in his very brief speech raised issues related to finding ways to expose the SIT and also take the initiative given by this interaction to involve larger sections of the people. He said that it is surprising that the expose by Headlines Today did an expose of the SIT investigation the day the protest petition was filed (April 15, 2013) but this story was largely ignored by the mdeia in general. He also wondered whether there is a possibility of filing a Public Interest Litigation (PIL) against SIT chairperson RK Raghavan for the unprofessional and biased role he has played in the investigation by concealing evidence and manipulating it. Intervening in the debate Teesta Setalvad expressed her anguish at the media\u2019s lacklustre response to the serious issues of misgovernance and communal mobilisation, stating that it appeared to have been party to promoting Modi as the future PM of the country, consciously ignoring exposures to his role in Gujarat carnage. This deadlock created by sections of the mainstream media needs to be overcome. She said that it is surprising how there had been relative silence on the pathbreaking Naroda Patia verdict (29.8.2012) and its\nimplications for the BJP nationally. A ruling party MLA and former minister Maya Kodnani had been convicted to life imprisonment for distributing weapons and inciting mobs as well as being party to a conspiracy. Yet the media remained soft on grilling the party for this indictment despite the fact that the Judge had held that a cold blooded conspiracy had taken 96 lives. The media has been complicit in allowing the political consequences of that judgement to become defused.\nR.B. Shreekumar in his turn profusely thanked Setalvad and CJP for their undying support extended to him in his fight against the Gujarat administration at a time when everyone had deserted him. Going into the details of the role Gujarat police played during the period of carnage in 2002 he bought out some little known facts. He stressed that there is truckload of evidence of involvement of against Modi apart from organizations such as RSS, Bajrang Dal and VHP. Refering to the role of Babu Bajrangi and Maya Kodnani he stated that it is surprising that it is only in one case that the planner(s) was arrested while in all others it were the foot soldiers who have been arrested.This, according to him does not send a correct signal. As a sidenote he mentioned that subversion is a masterpiece of Narendra Modi. He argued that the subversion was done by the people who were in judicial power, rather than by just the police administration. He argued that unlike the 1984 pogrom when not a single Sikh policeman testified in the case of Gujarat 2002 atleast three to four police officals have testified against the state government. All those policemen who acted as servants of the Indian Constitution have been harassed and victimised by the Gujarat government.\nCongress Member of Parliament and former union minister, Mani Shankar Aiyer began by saying that very little in our politics is issue based. He talked about his visit to Porbandar before the defeat of Congress in Gujarat when his own partymen urged not to mention Modi\u2019s name in the campaign. Listening to this one was reminded of a popular fantasy tale in which the main villian character whos name is Voldemort is often called as He Who Must Not Be Named. The Congress by not taking a clear and principled position on the issue of secularism was risking both taking the right stand and defeat. He advocated that on such a critical issue like secularism, it was adviseable to go down fighting rather than compromise. Even in Parliament he said that while the vast silent majority across party lines stood for secularism, it is the voluble minority that did not. Yet he felt that the minority supporting the divisive forces of communalism is not strong enough to challenge a country as diverse as India. In conclusion he said that the best gift that BJP could give to this nation is to adopt Modi as its prime ministerial candidate as that would allow all the secular forces to come together and fight the phenomenon unitedly. However, he also expressed his fear that such a move could also backlash.\nZakia Jafri spoke with powerful clarity about the horrors she and her family had to go through during the harrowing days from February 28, 2002 onwards. Commenting on recent remarks by Modi that he stood for both Hindus and Muslims, she said in response, \u201cwho were the mobs that attacked us that day, at Gulberg?\u201d That is my only answer to him. She and other families who lived at Gulberg had also been affected in the 1969 communal violence and had to spend 4-6 months in relief camps. She described in detail the incident which eventually led to Ahsan Jafri\u2019s death. In her speech she brought to light the gruesome details of his killing. Listening to her a cold shudder went up one\u2019s spine. She said that her husband was confident that nothing would happen to him as he had cordial relatins with everyone living in that area. (Ahsan Jafri was a renowned trade unionist and lawyer). But subsequent pre-planned developments showed how wrong he was proven. Before ending Mrs. Jafri also spoke about the manner in which she left her home and went to safety that evening with fellow residents. She said that the Commisioner of Police never came to meet them when she reached his office at night that day after escaping from the horrors. Intervening at this point Teesta Setalvad said that killing of Ahsan Jaferi was not merely a vendetta against Muslims in general which was orchestrated in 2002 in several districts of Gujarat but his killing had also to do with Modi\u2019s personal vendetta against Ahsan Jafri as he had campaigned against him in Rajkot days before (Fenruary 21-22 2002) when Modi had won the bye-election with a narrow margin of 14,000-odd votes, The minority community, especially women had responded to Ahsan Jafri\u2019s campaign. This point has been raised in the protest petition filed by Zakia Jafri.\nTanvir Jaferi talked about his father. He reminced about his childhood at his home and his relations with his father. He also thanked everyone present for being with them in their struggle for justice.\nSitaram Yechury congratulated Zakia Jafri and Teesta Setalvad for forcing the court to reopen and sustain this case. He pointed out that that this was merely a personal fight of the Jafris but this a crucial battle struggle at various levels; one being the conservation of the country\u2019s secular fabric when the state of Gujarat has failed to provide protection. The failure of deliverance of justice whether it is in Gujarat or anywhere else in the country would spell doom for the republic\u2019s secular ethos. He himself recalled what happened 28th of Feb 2002 in Delhi, parliament was on. Little news of what had been happening in Gujarat had percolated through as it was a budget day. Media attention was on budget and little on Gujarat. He recounted his experience of his visit to Gujarat on March 1 as part of a four member delegation which comprised of Amar Singh, Shabana Azmi, Raj Babbar (Sitaram Yechury was not a Member of Parliament at that point of time). Yechury narrated his experience of his interaction with Modi when he spoke to him on the phone during his visit. Yechury who had known Modi since his sojourn in Delhi asked him what he and his administration were doing. \u201cSabak sikha raje hain (teaching them a lesson),\u201d was the chilling reply. He brought out the details of the atmosphere which was prevailing when he visited the state during those days in 2002. He also narrated his experience when he visited the Police Commisioner\u2019s office on 1st of March. The situation he saw there was a revelation for him as he had not seen such a situation anywhere in peace time. He said that the gravity of the violence in Gujarat is still not known to the people. But it is due to people like Setalvad and Mrs. Jafri that truth came through in bits and pieces and is still coming in the public domain. History taught us lessons through the coincidences of dates, he said reminding us that it was on 27th February (1933) that the Reichstag (German Parliament) was set on fire and it was on the same date that Godhra (2002) had happened. January 30 (1948) the day Gandhi was killed and January 30 the same date that Hitler assumed power. The delivery of justice is crucial said Yechury. There is deeper struggle between the three visions of India viz. secular, secularism with social justice and theocratic state; and the result of this battle would show us how our country will be like. He in the end stressed that one cannot even think of isolating secularism from social justice and equality and that both go hand in hand.\nFor over two decades now, we at SAHMAT and Communalism Combat have stood for the strengthening of India\u2019s secular, democratic values by taking on frontally the divisive forces of communalism and fundamentalism.\nAs part of this ongoing battle, we believe it is imperative to host a detailed discussion/interaction between senior representatives of the political class, mass organisations and editors and journalists over the Issues Arising out of the Zakia Protest Petition, a landmark effort in the battle against impunity and for pinning responsibility for communal misgovernance.\nWe therefore invite you to join us at the Literature Hall. IIC Annexe, India International Centre between 2 pm to 5 pm on Tuesday, May 7, 2013 to participate in such a discussion.\nThe filing of the Zakia Jafri Protest Petition before the Magistrate on 15 April 2013 is a significant landmark in the sustained battle for the Rule of Law, Constitutional Governance and against communal forces and their vicious mobilisation within organs of the state and through unholy alliances with non-state actors. The petition, filed after a sustained battle to get a fair and transparent investigation against a chief minister, cabinet colleagues, senior administrators, policemen and front men and women of the RSS, VHP and Bajrang Dal will now make a strong case for charge sheeting of 59 accused.\nApart from the individual accused involved in this case, against whom a strong case for criminal culpability and administrative connivance and failure has been made out, the wider issues raised are critical to understand. Communal mobilisation precedes violence. It\u2019s transformation into brute attacks against targeted sections of the population remain fundamental threats to the lasting security of all Indians, communal harmony and the secularisation of the Indian polity.\nWe believe therefore the wider issues raised through the Zakia Jafri Protest Petition are debated widely to ensure a greater understanding of such mobilisation and to build a resistance to the same in future. Only then can we collectively demand a transparent and accountable system of governance from our representatives and the parties that they represent.\n\" In all probability Mrs Zakia Jafri and son Tanvir Jafri will also be present for the discussions. \"\nWe look forward to such a sustained discussion and your participation.\nRam Rahman, Teesta Setalvad\nFor Communalism Combat & SAHMAT\n\u00b7 Aggressive Mobilisation of Communal Forces and Response of State Agencies & Government.\n\u00b7 Monitoring and Check on Hate Speech, Hate Writing, Pamphleteering.\n\u00b7 State and Government Response to a Tragedy like Godhra on 27 February 2002.\n\u00b7 Contemporaneous Records that Reveal Government Callousness or Indifference.\n\u00b7 Transparency in Summoning assistance from the Military /Paramilitary forces.\n\u00b7 Comparative Analysis of Districts & Commission records worst affected (15) and those that held their own (SPs/DMs refused to bow down to political masters).\n\u00b7 Role of Whistleblowers in Pinning down Accountability.\n\u00b7 Role of Survivors/Activists/ Legal and Civil Rights Groups.\n\u00b7 Role of the Political Class.\n\u00b7 Role of Media.",

These are natural, honest reactions to a person\u2019s decisions or behavior. But when complaints and disagreements spiral out of control into global attacks on the person, and not on their decisions or behavior, this spells trouble. For example: \u201cThey didn\u2019t call me when they said they would because they were busy and forgot, but because they are a horrible, wretched, evil person.\u201d Remember, there\u2019s a big difference between who someone IS and what they sometimes DO.\n2. Using hateful gestures as a substitute for honest communication.\nFrequent name-calling, threats, eye-rolling, belittling, mockery, hostile teasing, etc. In whatever form, gestures like these are poisonous to a relationship because they convey hate. And it\u2019s virtually impossible to resolve a relationship problem when the other person is constantly receiving the message that you hate them. Also,\u2026\n1. Stop believing that someone else has already defined \u201csuccess\u201d and the path that must be followed to get there.\nWhen I was growing up there was a silent yet unanimously agreed upon definition of what success looked like in my family. Although it was never openly discussed, it was implied through various conversations and decisions I was directly or indirectly included in. The bottom line is that, although challenging, giving up other people\u2019s definition of success is incredibly liberating and ultimately leads to the fullest expression of who you are. Just think about it\u2026Other people aren\u2019t going to live with the results of your choices. So why would you live according to their contrived definition of success? Have you ever honestly asked yourself what success means to YOU? Or have you simply adopted your definition and beliefs from everyone around you? For far too many us, the answer is the latter. By understanding the essence of your goals and how YOU define success, it\u2019s easi\u2026\nFor many of us watching from the African lens, the emergence of 39 years old Emmanuel Macron as president of France (a first world country) was the stuff of dreams. In a continent where grey hair is a pre-requisite to climb the defied political ladder, the hysteria was to be expected.\nIn the wake of Macron\u2019s victory, the Nigerian youth has been brought forward for immense backlash. The critics argue that while a vast majority of our youths\u2019 frolic around political godfathers for mere crumbs, Macron provides an example of how it should be done. The point sounds plausible upon arrival but a deeper reflection shows it is tantamount to turning logic on its head; it is a single story. Macron was an outlier, similar to Trump. It is a testament to the democracies of the United States and France that outliers can emerge into mainstream politics without having to float their own parties or run as individual candidates. The case is not same in Nigeria and the constitutional premise put the yo\u2026",

The three goals of the study are to determine if CBD is safe and tolerable and whether it helps with the symptoms of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), whether and how CBD alters neurotransmitters and/or improves brain connectivity, and whether biomarkers of neuro-inflammation, also associated with ASD, are altered by CBD.\nThe clinical trial, slated to begin in late 2018, will be led by Doris Trauner, M.D., a professor in the departments of Pediatrics and Neurosciences at the UCSD School of Medicine. Basic and translational research will be headed by Gabriel A. Silva, Ph.D., professor of bioengineering in the UCSD Jacobs School of Engineering and professor of neuroscience, and Alysson Muotri, Ph.D., professor in the UCSD School of Medicine departments of Pediatrics and Cellular & Molecular Medicine.\nThe multidisciplinary study will include 30 children, ranging in age from eight to 12 years old, who have all already received a confirmed diagnosis of moderate to severe ASD. All participants must be in good general health and free of any other neurological conditions, such as epilepsy. During the first phase of the study, half of the children will receive an oral dose of CBD, and the other half will receive a placebo. In the second phase of the study, the two groups will be switched. The half who initially received a placebo will receive the oral dose of CBD, while the group who first were given CBD will receive a placebo. Researchers will be \u201cblinded\u201d as to which participants are receiving which treatment until all testing is completed.\nThe generous grant that will fund the study is one of the largest private grants ever awarded in the United States for medical cannabis research. The announcement has caused a great amount of excitement and hope, in both the cannabis community and the autism community. Both communities are adamant and vocal about anecdotal evidence that CBD improves function in those on the autism spectrum.\nAmy Munera, president of Autism Society San Diego and mother of three boys with autism, said she and the group are very pleased to see this research happening, especially here locally.\n\u201cThe more options that are available, the more people can be helped, and that is always a good thing. Since so many people [with autism] are already on psychiatric medications, many of which can have significant side effects, this research may help to provide options that are safer and work for those for whom other treatments have not.\u201d She further explained, \u201cThere are many people in the autism community using a variety of treatments, and quality research to determine their efficacy is so important.\u201d\nAutism Society San Diego is the oldest affiliate of the Autism Society of America, having been in existence for more than 50 years. The organization has an all-volunteer board of directors dedicated to improving the lives of those affected by autism, especially in San Diego County.\n\u2014Pamela Jayne\nFor the latest cannabis news and lifestyle trends, please pick up our sister magazine CULTURE every month or visit culturemagazine.com.\nSynthetic CBD\nThis study is not using whole plant CBD.

        "title": "Could Sierra Leone's Isha Johansen Be The First Female #FIFA President?",
        "raw_content": "Could Sierra Leone\u2019s Isha Johansen Be The First Female #FIFA President?\n(CNN) \u2013 All eyes are on FIFA and who will replace the outgoing Sepp Blatter \u2014 but could one of Africa\u2019s leading women be set to revolutionize world football in the coming years?\nSierra Leone\u2019s Isha Johansen is one of only two female football association presidents out of 209 member countries, and no woman has ever led the governing body.\nSince joining FIFA in 2013, she has worked tirelessly for her federation, notably in helping her nation\u2019s battle against the deadly Ebola virus.\n\u201cWhy not?\u201d said Johansen when asked if she was interested in becoming FIFA president, though she is unlikely to stand in the upcoming election.\n\u201cIf the time is right. It\u2019s a learning process. I have learned so much in the years that I\u2019ve been in football,\u201d she told CNN.\n\u201cIn the two years I\u2019ve been president, I\u2019ve met all kinds of individuals and characters.\n\u201cYes, it would be wonderful wouldn\u2019t it \u2014 but I might decide to do something else.\u201d\nBlatter\u2019s announcement Tuesday that he will bring an end to his 17-year tenure was a moment which, according to Johansen, brought both \u201csurprise and relief.\u201d\nThe 79-year-old will step down from his role when a fresh election determines his successor.\nThere will also be elections for the executive committee (ExCo) \u2014 which could tempt Johansen to make her move for one of the coveted seats.\nHer work in the fight against Ebola and the establishment of her own football team \u2014 FC Johansen \u2014 has attracted much positive attention.\n\u201cYes, if I\u2019ve earned it,\u201d she says about contesting for a place on the ExCo. \u201cIf people feel that it\u2019s right for me to be there and if I\u2019ve got the right approach and if I\u2019m up to it.\n\u201cIt would be nice, it would be an achievement. That\u2019s what I\u2019m all about \u2014 rising above the odds, chasing the dream.\n\u201cThat\u2019s my club\u2019s motto. It\u2019s not only just a dream \u2014 but what do you do with that dream? You chase it \u2014 you\u2019re in hot pursuit of it.\u201d\nAt the moment, just three women sit on the ExCo \u2014 Australian Moya Dodd and Sonia Bien-Aime of Turks and Caicos were both co-opted onto the committee, while Lydia Nsekera of Burundi is the only other female FA president.\nWhile Johansen says the thought of a woman becoming president is \u201clovely,\u201d she remains an opponent of quotas.\n\u201cTo see more women on the ExCo would be lovely \u2014 but only if you merit it,\u201d she said.\n\u201cYou\u2019ve got to have earned that place. You don\u2019t put in women for the sake of the fact she\u2019s a woman.\n\u201cI would hate for people to think that I am where I am because I\u2019m a woman.\n\u201cI\u2019m where I am because of what I\u2019ve done. I\u2019ve always said that my deeds or what I\u2019ve achieved is my walking billboard.\u201d\nLast Friday, Blatter celebrated winning a fifth term in office after winning the presidential election ahead of Prince Ali bin al-Hussein, who conceded after trailing in the opening round of voting.\nNow, the organization which the Swiss administrator has led since 1998 is in turmoil.\nAhead of last week\u2019s election, an investigation in the United States resulted in the FBI arresting nine FIFA officials and five corporate executives. The American probe has targeted what one high-ranking IRS official labeled \u201cthe World Cup of fraud.\u201d\nWhile Blatter wasn\u2019t charged by the Justice Department, he isn\u2019t in the clear. U.S. officials told CNN on Tuesday that the FBI corruption investigation into FIFA\u2019s president continues.\nThere is also a separate criminal investigation by Swiss authorities into how the 2018 and 2022 World Cups were allocated.\nBoth FIFA and Blatter have been heavily criticized in the past week, particularly in Europe and North America.\nBut Johansen says the Blatter she knows is not a tyrant or a dictator.\nCongratulations to #global #football #family on successful hosting of #BallonDOr2014 @FIFAcom @fifamedia @SeppBlatter pic.twitter.com/ymrSyS18A6\n\u2014 Isha Johansen (@ishajohansen2) January 17, 2015\n\u201cI see him as a father figure,\u201d she said. \u201cFrom day one he came across as that. On that first day I went to Zurich to present myself as a new FA president, he was delighted.\n\u201cHe sat down with me and started to tell me about Sierra Leone and the first time he stepped foot in the country years ago, maybe in the late \u201970s and early \u201980s.\n\u201cYou could see that he took a great interest in the African continent and the people and culture.\n\u201cI saw him as someone who really embraced our continent, and people, as being, \u2018Yeah, you guys are the underdogs and I will use this office and power to make you a force to be reckoned with because you do have huge talents in your countries but not the resources or structure.\u2019\n\u201cThis is what the African football associations respect about him \u2014 his legacy.\n\u201cThis was a man in Europe, from Europe, at the helm of football power who said, \u2018No, Africa, you have just as much if not more talent, than the rest of the world, you don\u2019t have the structures \u2014 I will build you so you become a force to be reckoned with.'\u201d\nCandidates are expected to come forward to make their case to replace Blatter in the next few weeks\n\u201cThis is a very sobering time for the entire football family,\u201d said Johansen.\n\u201cWe have to look at ourselves and see where we want to go and how we conduct ourselves.\n\u201cWhere is FIFA heading? It\u2019s obviously going to be a lot more turbulent. Every day seems to come up with new revelations and incidents happening. I think it\u2019s going to be a very difficult time.\u201d\nMauritania Defeat Sierra Leone 2-1 In CHAN Qualifier\nSierra Leone Crashes Out Of Nation Cup As Mauritania Handles Leone Stars Shocking Defeat\ngreat thought lsha johansen wish you well in your dreams.

Pack your bags and head for the airport!\nFor your traveling pleasure we have compiled the latest exciting travel tips provided by the United States State Department.\nOld Europe!\nGet ready for adventure! Europe\u2019s allure is endless. Credible information indicates terrorist groups such as ISIL/Da\u2019esh, and al-Qa\u2019ida and affiliates continue to plot attacks in Europe as foreign fighters return home from Syria and Iraq, while other individuals may be radicalized or inspired by ISIL propaganda. In the past year extremists have carried out attacks in;\nGermany and\nHeading somewhere else, don\u2019t worry. European authorities continue to warn of additional attacks on major events, tourist sites, restaurants, commercial centers, places of worship, and the transportation sector. All European countries remain vulnerable to attacks from transnational terrorist organizations and U.S. citizens are urged to exercise vigilance while in public places.\nThe Ancient Cultures of the Middle East and North Africa!\nThe ancient traditions of violence are alive and well! Credible information indicates terrorist groups also continue to seek to attack U.S. interests in the Middle East and North Africa. The U.S. government remains highly concerned about possible attacks against U.S. citizens, facilities, businesses, and perceived U.S. and Western interests. Private U.S. citizens should not travel to any country to participate in armed conflict. Wanna play soldier? Better put that AK47 down buster! Fighting on behalf of or providing other forms of support to designated terrorist organizations, can constitute the provision of material support for terrorism, which is a serious crime that can result in penalties including prison time and large fines.\nSyria: Come back and enjoy our beaches!\nYes, famous for its beaches and ancient cities, Syria\u2019s security situation has been described as dangerous and unpredictable as a civil war between government and armed anti-government groups continues throughout the country. Extremist groups including ISIL/Da\u2019esh, and al-Qa\u2019ida have kidnapped and killed Westerners in Syria.\nLive, Love, Lebanon\nLebanon is famous for its exquisite beauty, diversity, glamor, European flavor, and hospitable people. Its rich culture and history have placed it on the \u201cmust see\u201d list of every world traveler. U.S.-designated terrorist groups operating in Lebanon include Hizballah, ISIL/Da\u2019esh, elements of al-Qa\u2019ida in Syria, Hamas, and the Abdullah Azzam Brigades (AAB). U.S. citizens have been the target of terrorist attacks in Lebanon, and the threat of anti-Western terrorist activity remains high.\nIraq: Land of nature and history\nActually the slogan \u2018Land of nature and history\u2019 is from the Kurdistan Tourism Board, but that\u2019s part of Iraq so no biggie. While democracy flourishes in Iraq and Kurdistan it seems another force, namely ISIL/Da\u2019esh, controls significant territory in northern, western, and central Iraq, and continues to attack Iraqi security forces and civilians in those areas.\nThe \u201cELTJA\u201d is a \u201cthing\u201d!\nOk, a thing like five countries; Egypt, Libya, Tunisia, Jordan, and Algeria. Here groups affiliated with ISIL, al-Qa\u2019ida in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM), and other terrorist groups have conducted attacks against both foreign and local targets. Please refer to each country\u2019s respective tourism website for more trip planning guidance, and Interpol.\nAnd \u2018Y\u2019 stands for \u2018Yemen\u2019, an unspoiled tourist destination\nTourism in Yemen is a promising sector, since Yemen is the cradle of civilizations and Yemen possesses a variety of varied tourist natural factors of history, ruins, the cultural heritage, and natural fundamentals that make it a tourist landmark. Here the level of instability and ongoing threats, including the threat of kidnapping, is severe. Al-Qa\u2019ida in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP) and ISIL/Da\u2019esh remain threats to U.S. citizens there, and pretty much everyone else.\nStaying out might not be a bad idea for travelers who shy from excitement, but who can resist shooting an elephant, giraffe or lion? I know the Trumps can\u2019t!\nWhile in Africa on your hunting safari, remember that AQIM (BTW this is not Afrikaans for \u2018ATM\u2019), al-Murabitun, and ISIL/Da\u2019esh are active in West Africa and the Sahel and have conducted attacks in Mali, Cote d\u2019Ivoire, and Burkina Faso. AQIM has also declared its intention to attack Western targets in the Sahel (Senegal, Mali, Mauritania, Niger, and Chad), and it has claimed responsibility for kidnapping and/or murdering several Westerners in the region. Why the Trumps remain at large remains a mystery. (Note to self: Find out if Patty Hearst is aware of the Trumps.)\nCome to Nigeria, unless you are Kenyan\nIf you are not Kenyan, this is the place for you. Nigeria\u2019s former aviation minister, Femi Fani-Kayode said it best by Tweeting as @realffk, \u201cTruth is that the Kenyans are very far behind us in every respect. I know their history inside out: they are just too small for us.\u201d In Nigeria, the extremist group Boko Haram/ISIL-West Africa has claimed responsibility for dozens of non-Twitter attacks, mainly in northern Nigeria. Boko Haram has carried out attacks in Cameroon\u2019s Far North Region, western Chad, and southern Niger, targeting foreign expatriates, tourists, and government leaders, and continues to pose a threat to the region\nSomalia, White Pearl of the Indian Ocean\nSomalia has the biggest coast line in Africa with 3100km along the Indian Ocean which can be home to loveliest beaches for tourism. It is also home to the bad guy Al. Talk about a busy bad guy, Al-Shabaab has conducted assassinations, suicide bombings, hostage taking, and indiscriminate attacks in civilian-populated areas, and the commercial aviation sector. Al-Shabaab remains a threat to neighboring countries in the East Africa region. (Note: It turns out that Al Shabaab is not one guy, but more than one.)\nPearls before swine of the Orient\nThe Orient welcomes your arrival in the Year of the Monkey (that\u2019s 2016).\nAsia is so big (bigger than Texas even) that it gets subdivided into several parts. One part referred to as \u201cSouth Asia\u201d provides guests with several terrorist groups that may be planning attacks, possibly against U.S. facilities, citizens, and interests. The presence of al-Qa\u2019ida, Taliban elements, including the Haqqani Network, Lashkar-e-Tayyiba, Da\u2019esh; indigenous sectarian groups, and other terrorist organizations, pose a danger to U.S. citizens in the region.\nPakistan, final home of a very bad guy\nPakistan has a rich and unique culture that has preserved established traditions throughout history. In Pakistan, terrorist attacks have occurred against civilian, government, and foreign targets. Attacks have included armed assaults on heavily guarded sites, including Pakistani military installations and airports. Extremist groups have also targeted hotels and Western interests in Pakistan\u2019s settled areas, including Islamabad, Karachi, Lahore and Quetta. Terrorists and criminal groups also have resorted to kidnapping for ransom.\nAfghanistan, carpet capital of the world\nWhen shopping for carpets and poppies, remember that no province in Afghanistan should be considered immune from violence and crime, and the strong possibility exists throughout the country for hostile acts, either targeted or random, against U.S. and other foreign nationals at any time. Taliban and other extremist organizations remain active in every province of the country and frequently target both Afghan government and foreign interests, including for kidnapping.\nThe Bollywood bonanza draws a huge crowd whilst the country continues to experience terrorist and insurgent activities which may affect U.S. citizens directly or indirectly. Anti-Western terrorist groups active in India include Islamist extremist groups such as Harkat-ul-Jihad-i-Islami, Harakat ul-Mujahidin, Indian Mujahideen, Jaish-e-Mohammed, and Lashkar-e Tayyiba. Past attacks have targeted public places, including some frequented by Westerners, such as luxury and other hotels, trains, train stations, markets, cinemas, mosques, and restaurants in large urban areas.\nBangladesh; Life happens here!\nBangladesh has a rich and diverse culture which is reflected in the architecture, culture, literature, music, painting, clothing, and a series of increasingly sophisticated violent attacks. These include an attack against a restaurant in Dhaka\u2019s diplomatic enclave that killed more than 20 people, including one U.S. citizen, as well as bombs and other attacks against gatherings of religious groups and security forces. ISIL publicly claimed credit for many of these attacks. Additionally, groups claiming to represent al-Qa\u2019ida in the Indian Subcontinent (AQIS) asserted responsibility for a series of threats and terrorist attacks targeting writers, publishers, and others in the media, including the murder of a U.S. citizen blogger.\nHeading towards \u201cCentral Asia\u201d we find supporters of terrorist groups such as the Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan, al-Qa\u2019ida, and the Islamic Jihad Union.These groups have expressed anti-U.S. sentiments and may attempt to target U.S. government interests. Other extremists groups and lone wolf attackers remain a concern, as was the case on August 30, 2016, when an individual detonated a vehicle-borne improvised explosive device at the Chinese Embassy in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan, approximately 400 meters from the U.S. Embassy.\nTurn left and set your sights on \u201cEast Asia and the Pacific\u201d where information from credible sources suggests that there is a continued risk of armed terrorist and criminal groups operating and planning attacks against foreigners, including U.S. citizens, in the East Asian and Pacific region. Over the past year, many regional extremists have shown strong aspirations to join ISIL/Da\u2019esh and pursue its goals. Jemaah Islamiyah (JI) and the Abu Sayyaf Group have cells operating throughout Southeast Asia and JI is linked to al-Qa\u2019ida and other regional terrorist groups.\nIn the Philippines, both serious trekkers and lazy beach bums have a range of options. There is a risk of travel to the southern Philippines, specifically related to kidnapping threats in the Sulu Archipelago and the ongoing threat of violence on the island of Mindanao, particularly in Central Mindanao.\nThere is only one place where all the colours, flavours, sounds and sights of Asia come together \u2013 Malaysia. Foreigners in the Eastern Sabah province of Malaysia are also targets for kidnappings for ransom. Criminal or terrorist bands may attempt to intercept boats ferrying tourists in the area as well. Malaysian authorities have confirmed links between ISIL/Da\u2019esh and the June 28, 2016 explosion at a nightclub in the Puchong area of Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.\nLiving on more than 13,400 islands, the Indonesian nation today counts some 200 million population comprising more than 200 ethnic groups. Here, extremists still have the ability to carry out small-scale violent attacks. U.S. citizens should avoid high-risk areas, be cautious of large crowds, and remain aware of their surroundings at popular tourist and holiday destinations, such as Bali and Lombok, and when visiting shopping malls, nightclubs, bars, restaurants, hotels, and places of worship.\nThailand is a kingdom of wonder, filled with spectacular natural, cultural, and historical attractions. Periodic acts of violence in Thailand remain a concern, such as the bombing near the Erawan Shrine in Bangkok in August 2015, and several small-scale bombings near tourist locations in southern provinces in August 2016.\nWhere ever you may be\u2026\nThere is always something going on that can be entertaining, informative and great for photography enthusiasts. Extremists may use conventional or non-conventional weapons to target official government and private interests. Recent attacks indicate that extremists remain interested in attacking \u201csoft\u201d targets, such as:\n\u2022 high-profile public events\n\u2022 hotels, clubs, and restaurants\n\u2022 shopping malls and markets\n\u2022 tourism infrastructure\n\u2022 public transportation systems\n\u2022 events where Westerners gather in large numbers, including during holidays.\nSo get packed, see the world and have fun!\nPhoto Credit: Flickr Commons\nNext Week: Sailing the Seven Seas!\nU.S. citizens considering maritime travel also should review information at the websites of the National Geospatial Agency, the Maritime Administration, and the U.S. Coast Guard for information related to maritime and port security globally. Current areas of concern include the Caribbean, Gulf of Guinea, Horn of Africa, and the Straits of Malacca and Singapore \u200eas a result of maritime crimes including smuggling, human trafficking, and piracy. In addition, merchant vessels and maritime interests operating in the waters of the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden should be aware of the increased potential for maritime attacks in the vicinity of Bab-el-Mandeb Strait.\nThomas Timlen is a freelance writer, blogger, photographer, graphic artist and researcher based in Singapore.

        "raw_content": "Middle Eastern Black Swans dot China\u2019s Belt and Road\nBy James M. Dorsey 22 September 2018\nEdited remarks at the RSIS Book Launch of China and the Middle East; Venturing into the Maelstrom (Palgrave 2018), 20 September 2018\nA podcast version of this story is available at https://soundcloud.com/user-153425019/middle-eastern-black-swans-dot-chinas-belt-and-road\nIf any one part of the world has forced China to throw its long-standing foreign and defense policy principles out the window and increasingly adopt attitudes associated with a global power, it is the greater Middle East, a region that stretches from the Atlantic coast of Africa to north-western China, a swath of land populated by the Arab, Turkic and Persian worlds.\nIt was a series of incidents in 2011 during the popular Arab revolts that drove home the fact that China would not be able to protect with its existing foreign and defence policy kit its mushrooming Diaspora and exponentially expanding foreign investments that within a matter of a few years would be grouped as the infrastructure and connectivity-driven Belt and Road initiative linking the Eurasian landmass to the People\u2019s Republic.\nPolicy principles of non-interference in the domestic affairs of others, an economically-driven win-win approach as a sort of magic wand for problem solution, and no foreign military interventions or bases needed reinterpretation if not being dumped on the dustbin of history.\nThe incidents included China\u2019s approach to the revolt in Libya as it was happening when it deviated from its policy of non-interference by establishing parallel relations with the opposition National Council. The outreach to Libyan leader Col. Moammar Qadhafi\u2019s opponents did not save it from being identified with the ancien regime once the opposition gained power. On the contrary, the Council made clear that China would be low on the totem pole because of its past support for the Qadhafi regime.\nThe price for supporting autocratic rule in the greater Middle East meant that overseas Chinese nationals and assets became potential targets. To ensure the safety and security of its nationals in Libya, China was forced to evacuate 35,000 people, its most major foreign rescue operation. The evacuation was the first of similar operations in Syria, Iraq and Yemen.\nThe evacuations didn\u2019t stop militants in Egypt\u2019s Sinai from kidnapping 25 Chinese nationals and radicals in South Sudan from taking several Chinese hostages. The kidnappings sparked significant criticism on Chinese social media of the government\u2019s seeming inability to protects its nationals and investments.\nWith Uyghurs from China\u2019s strategic north-western province of Xinjiang joining militant jihadists in Syria and two Uyghur knife attacks in Xinjiang itself in the cities of Hotam and Kashgar, the limits of China\u2019s traditional foreign and defense policy meshed with its increasingly repressive domestic approach towards the ethnic Turkic people.\nFinally, the greater Middle East\u2019s expectations were driven home in a brutal encounter between Arab businessmen and ethnic Chinese scholars and former officials in which the Arabs took the Chinese to task for wanting to benefit from Middle Eastern resources and trade relations without taking on political and geopolitical responsibilities they associated with a rising superpower.\nAdd to all of this that in subsequent years it was becoming increasingly difficult for China to remain on the sidelines of the Middle East\u2019s multiple conflicts and rivalries. This was particularly true with President Donald J. Trump\u2019s coming to office. The greater Middle East\u2019s problems escalated with Mr. Trump\u2019s abandonment of any pretence of impartiality in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict; his heating up of the rivalry between Saudi Arabia and Iran by withdrawing from the 2015 international agreement curbing Iran\u2019s nuclear program; and his toying with attempting to change the regime in Tehran that encouraged Saudi Arabia to step up Saudi support for Pakistani militants in the province of Baluchistan; the likely return of Uyghur jihadists in Syria to Central and South Asia that has prompted the establishment of Chinese military outposts in Tajikistan and Afghanistan and consideration of direct military intervention in a possible Syrian-Russian assault on Idlib, the last rebel-held stronghold in Syria; and finally the potential fallout of China\u2019s brutal crackdown in Xinjiang.\nAlready, the events in 2011 and since coupled with the mushrooming of Belt and Road-related investments has led to the creation of the country\u2019s first foreign military base in Djibouti and the likely establishment of similar facilities in its string of pearls, the network of ports in the Indian Ocean and beyond.\nChina\u2019s potential policy dilemmas in the greater Middle East were enhanced by the fact that it doesn\u2019t really have a Middle East policy that goes beyond its shaky, traditional foreign and defence policy principles and economics. That was evident when China in January 2016 on the eve of President Xi Jinping\u2019s visit to the Middle East, the first by a Chinese head of state in seven years, issued its first Middle East-related policy white paper that fundamentally contained no new thinking and amounted to a reiteration of a win-win-based approach to the region.\nMoreover, with China dependent on the US security umbrella in the Gulf, Beijing sees itself as competitively cooperating with the United States in the Middle East. That is true despite the US-Chinese trade war; differences over the Iranian nuclear agreement which the United States has abandoned and China wants to salvage; and Mr. Trump\u2019s partisan Middle East policy.\nChina shares with the United States in general and even more so with the Trump administration a fundamental policy principle: stability rather than equitable political reform. China\u2019s principle of non-interference is little more than another label for the US equivalent of long-standing support of autocracy in the Middle East in a bid to maintain stability.\nIn some ways China is learning the lesson, despite recent developments in Xinjiang, that US President George W. Bush and Susan Rice, his national security advisor and subsequent secretary of state, learnt on 9/11. Within a matter of weeks after the Al Qaeda attacks on New York and Washington, Bush and Rice suggested that the United States was co-responsible for the attacks because of its support for autocracy that had fuelled anti-American and anti-Western sentiment. It was why Bush launched his ill-conceived democracy initiative.\nChina, as a result of its political, economic and commercial approach towards the Belt and Road, is starting to have a similar experience. Chinese overseas outposts and assets have become targets, particularly in Pakistan but also in Central Asia.\nThe kidnappings in 2011 in the Sinai and South Sudan were the beginning. Uyghurs joined groups like the Islamic State and Al Qaeda not because they were pan-Islamist jihadists but because they wanted to get experience they could later apply in militant struggle against the Chinese.\nBeyond profiling themselves in fighting in Syria, Uyghurs have trained with Malhama Tactical, a jihadist for profit Blackwater, the private military company created by Erik Prince.\nAnti-Chinese sentiment in countries like Kazakhstan and Tajikistan is on the rise.\nIranians are grateful for Chinese support not only in the current battle over the nuclear accord but also in the previous round of international and US sanctions. They feel however that last time round they were taken for a ride in terms of high Chinese interest rates for project finance, the quality of goods delivered, and a perceived Chinese laxity in adhering to deadlines.\nResentment of the fallout of the Belt and Road investment taps into the broader threat involved in supporting stability by backing autocratic regimes That is nowhere truer than in the greater Middle East, a region that is in a period of volatile, often bloody and brutal transition. It\u2019s a transition that started with the 2011 Arab revolts and has been pro-longed by a powerful Saudi-United Arab Emirates-led counterrevolution. Transitions take anywhere from a quarter to half a century. In other words, the Middle East is just at the beginning.\nChina, like the United States did for decades, ignores the rumblings just below the surface even if the global trend is toward more authoritarian, more autocratic rule. 9/11 was the result of the United States and the West failing to put their ear to the ground and to take note of those rumblings.\nOf course, current rumblings may never explode. But the lesson of the people\u2019s power movement in the Philippines in 1986, the video in late 2010 of a fruit and vegetable vendor in Tunisia who set himself alight that sparked the Arab revolts, months of street and online protests in Morocco in the last year, the mass protests in Jordan earlier this year against a draft tax bill that have now restarted because of the legislation\u2019s resurrection, and the current protests in the Iraqi city of Basra potentially are the writing on the wall. All it takes is a black swan.\nSaid Financial Times columnist Jamil Anderlini:\u201d China is at risk of inadvertently embarking on its own colonial adventure in Pakistan\u2014 the biggest recipient of BRI investment and once the East India Company\u2019s old stamping ground\u2026 Pakistan is now virtually a client state of China. Many within the country worry openly that its reliance on Beijing is already turning it into a colony of its huge neighbour. The risks that the relationship could turn problematic are greatly increased by Beijing\u2019s ignorance of how China is perceived abroad and its reluctance to study history through a non-ideological lens\u2026 It is easy to envisage a scenario in which militant attacks on Chinese projects overwhelm the Pakistani military and China decides to openly deploy the People\u2019s Liberation Army to protect its people and assets. That is how \u2018win-win\u2019 investment projects can quickly become the foundations of empire.\u201d\nThe Chinese crackdown in Xinjiang could just be a black swan on multiple fronts given the fact that its fallout is felt far beyond China\u2019s borders. For starters, the wall of Western and Muslim silence is cracking with potentially serious consequences for China as well as the Islamic world.\nWhat is happening in Xinjiang is fundamentally different from past incidents including protests against a novel by Salman Rushdie and Ayatollah Khomeini\u2019s fatwa ordering his killing; the 2006 Muslim boycott of Danish products because of controversial Danish cartoons depicting the Prophet Mohammed, and the more recent protests sparked by the burning of a Qur\u2019an by a Florida evangelist. The Chinese campaign in Xinjiang challenges fundamentals of the Islamic faith itself.\nThe earlier incidents were sparked by protests, primarily among South Asians in either Birmingham or Pakistan. This month has seen the first of Xinjiang-related anti-Chinese protests in Bangladesh and India. The first critical article on Xinjiang in the Pakistani press was published this week.\nMalaysia is the first Muslim country to speak out with condemnations by a senior figure in Malaysian prime minister Mahathir Mohamad\u2019s political party as well as the country\u2019s likely next head of government, Anwar Ibrahim.\nConsideration in Washington of Xinjiang-related sanctions by the Trump administration, coupled with United Nations reporting on the crackdown and a German and Swedish ban on deportations of Uyghurs, puts the issue on the map and increases pressure on Muslim nations, particularly those like Saudi Arabia, Iran, Turkey and Pakistan that claim to speak on behalf of Islam.\nThis together with the fact that Chinese support for autocratic or authoritarian rule creates a potential opportunity to export its model of the surveillance state, the most extreme example of which is on display in Xinjiang, constitutes risks and involves potential black swans. To be sure, Pakistan can hardly be described as a liberal society, but it is also not exactly an authoritarian state, yet Pakistan is China\u2019s first export target. And others closer to home could follow.\nIf all of this is more than enough to digest, factor in the geopolitics of Eurasia, certainly as they relate to the greater Middle East. The Chinese-backed Russian-Iranian-Turkish alliance is brittle at best, witness differences over the possible battle for Idlib and the post-war presence of Iran in Syria.\nSaudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Iran, and to a lesser degree Israel are players in what is a 21st century Great Game. That is particularly true in the Caucasus and Central Asia as well as Pakistan and as it relates to port diplomacy in Pakistan\u2019s Gwadar and the Indian-backed Iranian port of Chabahar.\nAdd to this the fact that if Saudi Arabia is the world\u2019s swing oil producer, Iran is Eurasia\u2019s swing gas producer with the potential to co-shape the supercontinent\u2019s future energy architecture.\nAnd finally, there are multiple ways that China risks being sucked into the Saudi-Iranian rivalry not least if the United States and Saudi Arabia decide to take plans off the drawing board and initiate a campaign to destabilize Iran by stirring unrest among its Baloch, Kurdish, Iranian Arab and Azeri minorities.\nThe long and short of this is that the Great Game in Eurasia remains largely undecided and that change in China\u2019s foreign and defense policy is already a fact. The question is how all of this will affect China and how potential obstacles on the Belt and Road will play out.",

        "raw_content": "Brendan Curtin Memorial\nBrendan Curtin - An Appreciation\nThe sudden and untimely death of Brendan Curtin at Tallaght Hospital on the 10th July, 09 came as a great shock to those privileged to know him. Brendan who was only thirty four years of age was the youngest member of John and Bernie Curtins family of four boys and three girls.\nDeath is always sad but when it strikes at one in his prime having such a promising future it is particularly poignant. Though Brendan\u00e2\u0080\u0099s life was relatively short he lived it to the full and had achieved much.\nWhen Brendan was born his family lived in Cappaghmore Estate in Clondalkin and he attended St. Joseph\u00e2\u0080\u0099s primary school there. As a juvenile he played Gaelic games with the Round towers Club. His family came to live in 15 Ardglass, off Sandyford Road, Dundrum in 1985 and Brendan attended Holy Cross National School in Dundrum. He attended St. Benildus Secondary School. Having secured a degree from U.C.D he subsequently studied and qualified as a Chartered Accountant. He took up employment with KPMG and he also worked for O2, before moving to Meteor, where he was employed at the time of his death. Brendan married Gwendolyn Marks form Cooley Co. Louth in December 2006 and they lived in Naas, Co. Kildare having purchased a home there.\nHaving come to live in Ardglas Brendan transferred to Naomh Olaf GAA Club where he became valued and much loved member. He made a major contribution to the club, as a player, team mentor, Senior Committee Member and Club treasurer. While employed by O2 he secured valuable sponsorship from his company for the Naomh Olaf Senior Football team.As a mark of respect to Brendan all Naomh Olaf GAA fixtures were called off on the weekend of his death.\nBrendan was a man of honesty and integrity and this together with his exceptional good looks made him a an ideal choice to represent his Company KPMG as an independent observer of the National Lotto Draw live on RTE on many occasions.\nBrendan had many interests. He was an avid reader. He played Gaelic games and supported the Dubs. He supported the Munster and Leinster Rugby teams. He was a good cyclist and raised money on several occasions cycling for his favourite charity, the \u00e2\u0080\u009cWelcome Home Foundation\u00e2\u0080\u009d. If it\u00e2\u0080\u0099s true that there\u00e2\u0080\u0099s more joy in giving than in receiving then Brendan must have enjoyed a very happy life indeed.\nA person like Brendan with so many diverse interests made many friends, all of whom now have their own memories and stories.Many lives have been enriched by Brendan\u00e2\u0080\u0099s life, none more so than that of his wife and his family. His passing has left heartfelt pain which will only case with the passage of time. His funeral was a true reflection of the respect and affection in which he was held. A large number of people all united in grief travelled from far and wide to pay their prayful respects.\nBrendan\u00e2\u0080\u0099s funeral mass was celebrated in St. Conleth\u00e2\u0080\u0099s Church Newbridge on the 13th July 09. Members of Naomh Olaf GAA Club formed a guard of Honour as his coffin draped in the Naomh Olaf Club flag was received into the Church. Fr. Pat Hughes who was the celebrant is to be commended for his moving and meaningful imput to the funeral liturgy. Se\u00c3\u00a1n Curtin gave the Eulogy in which he described his brother Brendan as \u00e2\u0080\u009ca rare specimen, an accountant with a personality\u00e2\u0080\u009d Brendan\u00e2\u0080\u0099s burial took place afterwards in Cill Mhuire Cemetery, Templetown, Cooley, Co. Louth.\nIt is not within the narrow limits of his brief appreciation, but rather in the hearts and memories of his beloved wife, family and friends that his many merits and virtues will be indelibly recorded.\nSincere condolences are extended to his wife Gwendolyn and her family, to his mother and father John and Bernie, his brothers and sisters, Se\u00c3\u00a1n, David, Deirdre, Collette, Kevin and Bernie and to his many relations, neighbours and friends.",

        "raw_content": "Astronomy prepares to launch into orbit\nNew investment in space research means that student numbers are lifting off\nhttp://education.independent.co.uk/graduate_options/article2269717.ece\nBudding science graduates who dream of reaching for the stars can count their lucky ones, because space-science courses are experiencing a big bang here in the UK.\nKatarina Miljkovic, 25, graduated with degree in astrophysics from the University of Belgrade, in Serbia. Since June she has been studying for a PhD in experimental physics at the Centre of Earth, Planetary and Space Research at the Open University (OU) in Milton Keynes.\n\"I couldn't find any satisfactory studies in Belgrade so I started searching for an overseas studentship,\" Miljkovic explains. \"I liked what the Open University do and how they do it. Besides my research they are training me to be a good space scientist.\"\nWith its contributions to robotic missions for Nasa and the European Space Agency, the OU's centre has built up a credible international reputation for space science and entices research students with its work in planetary research and astrophysics. It and a number of other universities have seen a significant rise in students taking space-related studies.\nAlthough the number of astrophysics students in PhD places is small, unlike other sciences the number is growing. According to Steve Cann, the education and training officer at the Particle Physics and Astrophysics Research Centre (PPARC), there has been a 5 per cent increase in the number of PPARC PhDs in the field of astronomy over the last five years (up from 102 awards to the October 2007 level of 160 awards).\n\"The PPARC's policy has been to increase the number of PhD studentships it supports and it has 100 per cent take up of its PhD studentships on offer,\" he says.\nAlthough it may seem a long way away, benefits from the space sector are felt at home. The Government has realised the importance of space for the UK economy : the sector contributes \u00a37bn annually to GDP and supports 70,000 jobs in the UK.\n\"Space is a very interesting topic,\" Miljkovic says. \"There is always something new going on, and the job is absolutely fantastic. No boring schedules but projects, teamwork, brainstorming, solving problems nobody solved before, and so on. Science is exciting.\n\"I am part of the OU team that is suggesting new instrument technology for dust detection for future ESA and Nasa missions to Jupiter's moon Europa. It is a brand new topic where it is necessary to answer some hot scientific questions in order to have the mission fulfilled.\"\nKarl Atkinson, also from the OU, has found space equally enticing. Atkinson is researching the Surface Science Package, an instrument from ESA's Huygens probe that landed on Saturn's moon Titan in January 2005.\n\"After completing an MSc in spacecraft technology and satellite communications at UCL [University College London] I jumped at the chance to do a PhD at the Planetary and Space Science Research Institute (PSSRI) at the OU,\" Atkinson says. \"I applied for a project with the title of \"planetary landers\" as it seemed to combine my interest in spacecraft technology and planetary science.\"\nLaunched in 1997, The Cassini-Huygens mission was one of the longest satellite exploration missions in space. The PSSRI unit at the OU works with Nasa and ESA to collate data on the surface structure of the planet's moon.\n\"It was pretty exciting to be able to work on it,\" says Atkinson. \" I arrived three months before the probe was to land on Titan so I had to learn a lot about the instrument and Titan very quickly. Nobody knew what we would find on the surface, whether it would be solid or liquid or a mixture.\"\nOn 8 January 2007 the British National Space Centre launched a public consultation on the UK's space science strategy, which will plan funding for space science between 2007 and 2010. The public consultation, which ends on 2 April, has identified space as a key growth area for industry.\nAccording to Professor Alan Wells, a non-executive director of the National Space Centre in Leicester, space is an area that is worth investing in. \"In the UK there is a whole raft of research programmes gathering pace,\" he says.\n\"In the field of planetary exploration the UK is becoming increasingly involved with both ESA and Nasa, including missions to Mars and involvement in lunar exploration.\"\nTeaching space-related material in universities leads to more topical and lively treatment of standard science questions, he believes. \"It is well known that people with science training are in short supply, but while the number of physics graduates has dropped, the numbers of astrophysics students have gone up.\"",

        "title": "The Story of Gracchus: Chapter XXXII - Marcus Ultor",
        "raw_content": "MORTUUS EST CINNIS\n'The Ashes of the Dead' - After the funerals and the Munera there was a distinct sense of relief at the villa in Baiae.\nPreparations were then made by Novius and Terentius for the C\u0113na Novendi\u0101lis (Feast of the Nine Days) - to be held at the villa.\nTemporary Cinerary Urn\nIn one of the Peristyle gardens in the villa, (in the absence of the Mausoleum to be built at a later date) a temporary altar was erected, on which was placed a marble cinerary urn, (designed and carved in Neapolis) containing the ashes of the late Dominus.\nProposed Mausoleum of the House of gracchus\nAt the C\u0113na (feast), prayers and a libation would be made to the Manes at the temporary altar, and that would conclude all the ceremonies of mourning.\nThe ashes of young Ariston were kept in simple marble urn, in what had been his room - now permanently locked - and at some time in the future they would be placed in the Mausoleum of the House of Gracchus close to his master.\nLater, when Marcus visited Rome, a more elaborate and 'precious' Cinerary Urn would be ordered, created in Parian marble with gilded bronze decorations.\nMARCUS ULTOR\n'Marcus the Avenger' - Meanwhile, Petronius, somewhat relieved that all the funerary events were coming to an end, and feeling very satisfied with the highly successful 'Munera pro Gracchus' that he had organised (almost single handedly), was busy preparing the 'Ludi ad Celebra Recuperatione Marcus' - which was to be the vehicle for Marcus' revenge on those who had conspired against him, and brought about the death of his adoptive father, Gnaeus.\nThe Divine Augustus\nTemple of Divus Iulius - the Comet Star\nMarcus knew his history well, thanks to his tutor Lucius and, having been given the name 'Octavianus', he, like Gnaeus before him, actively modelled himself on the first 'Princeps' - the 'Divine Augustus' - whose patron, like Marcus, was the God Apollo.\nAlso like Marcus, Octavian was the adopted son of a great, wealthy and powerful man, in his case, Gaius Jullius Caesar (who had been declared a God, 'Divus Iulius', in 42 BC, by the Roman Senate), and who had been murdered as the result of a conspiracy.\nOctavian had subsequently taken his revenge, running down and viciously killing the conspirators (the so-called 'Liberators').\nTemple of Mars Ultor - Rome\nDespite his youth, like Marcus, (Octavian was only nineteen years old at the time), he had taken the revenge expected of a true Roman son.\nEventually, in 42 BC, Octavian had defeated Marcus Junius Brutus and Gaius Cassius Longinus (who both wisely committed suicide, rather that being executed by Octavian), at the Second Battle of Philippi.\nTo celebrate his revenge Octavian Augustus had built the huge Temple of Mars Ultor (Mars the Avenger) in Rome.\nMarcus (whose name was derived from Mars - the God of War (see Chapter II) would, as a result of his actions in the next Ludi, take on himself the epithet 'Marcus Ultor' - and much later build a temple in Cumae dedicated to 'Apollo Ultor' - but that was all in the future.\nRegardless, in a similar, but lesser manner, to the young Octavian, the new 'Octavianus' - Marcus, was intent on revenge.\nAlready the leader of the conspiracy against the House of Gracchus had been poisoned, and the slave-boy Cleon had been raped, emasculated and impaled, and left for dead in the woods between Baiae and Neapolis.\nThat left the four - Petram, Glykon, Menelaus and Servius - who were still imprisoned in the Ludus.\nUndoubtedly, like Cassius and Brutus, their minds would have turned to suicide, but they were carefully guarded, and would have to meet their humiliating end in the full public glare of the arena.\n'Vengeance' - Petronius' task was to devise various suitable ways of executing the four remaining conspirators.\nIn addition he would have to organize a suitable 'Pompa', one or two tableaux, a series of wrestling bouts, and of course the essential gladiatorial contests.\nTo begin with, Petronius could get little assistance from Marcus, as his 'Dominus' was still recovering from the stress caused by the death of Gnaeus, and the funeral, - combined with the suicide of Ariston, and then the Munera, and also the subsequent funeral for Ariston.\nAnd to make matters even more difficult Marcus, during that time, had to 'play the perfect' host to Titus, the son of the Emperor Vespasian, along with numerous other guests.\nThere was also one other matter worrying Marcus, which was Demetrius.\nSince the funeral for Ariston, Demetrius had spent most of his time with Petronius.\nDemetrius on the Beach\nIn the morning he would accompany Petronius to the Ludus (although he was never allowed to see the imprisoned conspirators, who were awaiting execution), where Petronius was making preparations for the 'Ludi ad Celebra Recuperatione Marcus' (a name that would later be changed), and, in the afternoon, Petronius would take the boy to the public Gymnasion in Baiae (as he wanted Demetrius to mix with other boys from outside the villa), and to the beach - as Demetrius was by then able to swim - after a fashion.\nIn the evening Demetrius would have lessons with his Greek and Latin tutors, and would later eat with Petronius, and then sleep in his own cublicum (Petronius was not 'predatory', unlike Menelaus and Servius)\nThe problem with Demetrius, however, was the fact that he was very withdrawn, and all the tumultuous events that had recently occurred seemed to provoke little response from him.\nNovius put this down to the fact that Demetrius had been almost totally isolated when he was younger, at the Domus in Rome, and had obviously been badly abused for some considerable time by Menelaus, and then later, briefly, by Servius.\nHaving allowed Marcus a number of days to come to terms with all the recent tumultuous events, Petronius finally asked if Marcus was willing to accompany himself and Demetrius to the Amphitheatre, and also to their favourite thermopolium in Baiae.\nMuch to Petronius' relief, Marcus agreed.\nIN THERMOPOLIUM ET AMPHITHEATRUM\nEarly in the cool of the morning Marcus, Petronius and Demetrius went to the main entrance of the villa, where the Magister Equitum, and his grooms were waiting for them with appropriate horses. - large and pure white for Marcus, large and pure black for Petronius, and a moderately sized Sorrel for Demetrius.\nWhere and when Demetrius had learned to ride, and who taught him no one had yet discovered - for , as has been noted, he was disturbingly reserved - and there were strange, uncountable gaps in his memories.\nInteresting fact - the Romans did not use stirrups - as far as we know - so, to get on a horse it was necessary for a slave to go down on hands and knees, so that the rider could step on his back in order to mount, or alternatively some sort of stool or step could be used. For this reason, Romans were not keen on long equine journeys.\nIt was, however, not a long journey - the road was wide, and they rode three abreast to the town of Baiae.\nMarcus and Petronius were now well known in the town - Marcus being the most affluent, prominent and influential of all the residents.\n(Little did many of the inhabitants also realise that Marcus was their landlord - as all legal documents were handled and signed by Terentius on Marcus' behalf - and, of course, when they went to the beach, (and therefore the sand - used often in the arena) - was also owned by Marcus.\nArriving at the Amphitheatre, Marcus briefly inspected the condition of the structure - which was good, as most of it was refurbished and new, and then went through to the Ludus, and Petronius' office.\n\"So, how far have we got ?\", Marcus asked Petronius, while slaves busied themselves laying out drawings and lists, and bringing wine, cheese, bread and olives.\n\"The gladiators and wrestlers have been selected - and Lucius is preparing a suitable panegyric - about you (at that point Petronius started grinning).\nA panegyric is a formal public speech, often written verse, delivered in high praise of a person, and is a generally highly studied and undiscriminating eulogy. In Athens such speeches were delivered at national festivals or Games. The Romans generally confined the panegyric to the living, and reserved the 'funeral oration' (see Gracchus' funeral) exclusively for the dead. One may be able to understand, considering the close,intimate relationship between Petronius and Marcus, why Petronius should consider a panegyric praising Marcus to be somewhat amusing.\nThen, attempting to look more serious, he continued, \"Arrangements are being made for the executions - but I will speak with you about that later.\", Petronius explained - nodding towards Demetrius.\n\"So.... that all sounds good.\nExcellent - now let's see the gladiators, and the wrestlers.\", Marcus said, handing his goblet to one of the slaves.\nThey then went back to the arena, where the senior arena-slaves were marshalling two groups of young men - the gladiators and the wrestlers, into two rows.\nThe gladiators (facing Marcus from the right), were lined up, wearing only their wrist guards and brief loincloths.\nThe wrestlers, divided into two groups - youths and young men, (facing Marcus from the left), and were completely naked, apart from silver slave-collars.\nMarcus had decided to continue Gnaeus' tradition of including boy wrestlers in the Pancratium.\nBoy's Pancratium\nThe Pankration (known to the Romans as the Pancratium) was first introduced at the thirty-third Greek Olympics in 648 BC. One of the interesting facts about pankration is that there weren\u2019t weight divisions, as is the norm for every modern combat sport; there were no time limits either and, like gladiatorial fights, a contest would not finish until one of the two opponents surrendered or was killed. The wrestlers used techniques from boxing and wrestling, but also other techniques, such as kicking and holds, locks and chokes on the ground. The only things not acceptable were biting and gouging out the opponent's eyes. The boy's pankration officially entered the Greek Olympic Games in 200 BC. In Greek practice boys always fought against boys, but in Gracchus' Roman arena boys were sometimes required to fight fully grown men - and usually lost the fight. The Pancratium wrestlers were low status performers in the arena, - looked down on by the gladiators, as wrestlers fought naked, and quite often the losing wrestler would be publicly raped before being killed.\nAs regards the line of naked wrestlers, by this time young Demetrius seemed to be unaffected by male nudity.\nDomos Gracchii'\nAs far as could be judged, he had never attended any Ludi held in Rome while he was living at the 'Domus', and so had not seen public displays of nudity, or killings or executions, for that matter.\nEqually, being kept practically in 'incommunicado', Demetrius was not allowed to attend the public baths, where nudity was commonplace, but instead used the lavish bathing facilities at the 'Domos Gracchii'.\nThe first time that Demetrius encountered male nudity (apart from when forced to have sex), was when Petronius took him to the beach at Baiae, to teach him to swim, and when he went to the Baiae public gymnasion, where most of the boys and men followed the Greek practice of exercising naked (hence gymnasion - meaning in Greek a place to exercise naked).\nFor Marcus, having been brought up in Athens, and spending much of his early years 'hanging around' the Athenian gymnasia, male nudity was of no consequence, and Petronius, being responsible for the training of the gymnasts, wrestlers and gladiators was equally un-fazed.\nAs for the combination of nudity and violence, Demetrius had been present at the 'Munera pro Gracchus', and equally seemed unaffected by what he had witnessed.\nOf course, it should be remembered that Demetrius, at that stage, had very little understanding of who Gnaeus Gracchus was or, for that matter, the man's significance, apart from the scant information that Novius had given him.\nAll that, however, was for the moment behind them, and it was Marcus' task, while Petronius and Demetrius looked on, to approve the individuals that had been selected to appear in the new 'Ludi'.\nSome of the boys parading were only a little older than Demetrius, but all being well, there was a good chance that many of them, along with the older combatants, would survive these 'Ludi' as, unlike previous the 'Munera', the contests in the Ludi were not 'ad mortem' (to the death).\nIt was only the executions, and possibly some tableaux that would involve any killing.\n\"So what about the tableaux about the story of Achilles and Patroclus, that we planned so long ago ?\nDo we still have enough lads for the Greeks and the Trojans ?\", Marcus asked, as he turned away from the lines of arena fighters.\n\"Yes, Dominus,\", Petronius replied\n\"So it's just a case of finding a young condemned slave who's handsome enough to play the part of Patroclus ?\", Marcus asked.\n\"Yes, I'm sure we can find one, and we can use the dancer, Paris - remember, he played the part of Zeus in the tableaux of Ganymede.\nHe's ideal - 'well-endowed', and an excellent 'performer'.\", Petronius said, grinning.\n(Demetrius, of course, knew nothing of the tableaux of the 'Rape of Ganymede', staged in the arena in happier times - before the death of the late Dominus) - see Chapter XV -' Dies in Ludi'.\n\"But remember, Petronius, the boy who is to take the part of Patroclus must not be told about his fight with the Trojans, or what happens to him as a result of the fight.\nArrachion in his Minotaur Mask\nWe don't want another suicide like Arrachion, the pankration wrestler, who was to play the Minotaur - remember ?\nMake sure that he does not know his Homer - and keep him isolated, but well trained and looked after until the Ludi.\", Marcus warned.\n\"Of course, Dominus.\", Petronius replied.\n\"Well, that's settled..... So let's go and have something to eat !\", Marcus concluded.\nLeaving the Amphitheatre, the trio walked to Petronius' favourite thermopolium in Baiae, close to the beach.\nThe manager, who was also the owner, (and actually a tenant of Marcus - although he did not know it), greeted them with much deference, as they were so finely dressed, referring to them as 'dominis pullos' ('young masters' in slightly 'common' Latin).\nHe had served them often (more recently Petronius and Demetrius) but, not being one of Baiae's brightest citizens, did not realise who Marcus was - and if anything, thought that Petronius was the 'boss' (princeps) of the group.\nAnd on that subject Marcus had something to say to Demitrius.\n\"Please remember, Demetrius, that here in Baiae, outside the villa, you don't call me Dominus - or the people here will think that you are a slave.\nJust call me Domine. - I'm domine to you when we're in the town - yes ?\"\n\"Yes, Domine.\", Demetrius said, obediently - while Demetrius nodded.\n\"And so....how do you feel about seeing the new Ludi ?\", Marcus asked Demetrius, while Petronius, who always dealt with the manager, ordered the food.\n\"I'm looking forward to it.\nI think it will be good.\", Demetrius replied, quite enthusiastically.\n\"And what did you think of the Munera ?\", Petronius interrupted, leaving the manager waiting for the next part of the order.\n\"It was good - and I'm glad that the 'late dominus' got his dead fighters to help him to the next world - but I think it's better when you can see the fighter's faces - otherwise they all look the same.\", Demetrius thoughtfully replied.\n\"That's good - but you need to understand that the 'Munera' is different from the 'Ludi'.\nAt the 'Ludi' the audience can favour and cheer for one fighter against the other.\nThe Munera, however, is a 'religious' event - and the only thing that matters is that one of the fighters is killed - and it doesn't matter which one, so they all wear helmets, so they all look the same - you understand ?\", Marcus asked.\n\"Yes Domine \", Demetrius replied, nodding, as the manager brought goblets and a flask of wine to the table.\n\"So what about the Ludi ?\nDo you want to join us in the Pulvinar for that ?\",Marcus asked.\n\"Yes domine, very much !\", Demetrius replied.\n\"And you know that Servius, and your previous master, Menelaus, will be executed during the Ludi ?\", Marcus asked.\n\"Yes !\", Demetrius said, remarkably fiercely.\n\"I want to see them die - painfully !\", Demetrius then added.\nMarcus and Petronius looked at one another - surprised.\n\"You do understand that I have told Petronius to ensure that the executions of the four conspirators - that will include Servius and Menelaus - are to be particularly unpleasant - involving torture, and probably emasculation, disembowelment and decapitation ?\", Marcus continued.\n\"If I may say, Domine - I think that it is all that they deserve !\", Demetrius said, trying to be cold and formal.\nAnd then he became emotional, and with tears in his eyes, he continued.....\n\"They both lied to me, and badly treated me, and hurt me - and I want them dead !\"\n\"That's enough, Demetrius... We understand.\" Marcus said gently, trying to calm the boy down.\n\"I just wanted to be sure that you would not get upset, or faint, or be sick, or do something shameful at the Ludi.\nYou must remember that you are a Roman boy - and in the Pulvinar everyone can see you - and you must set an example.\"\n\"Don't worry, domine. I will be good !\", Demetrius said firmly.\n\"That what I wanted to hear.\nNow you just get on eating, as Petronius and I have some things to talk about.\", Marcus said, pushing a plate of succulent meat in front of the boy.\n\"So Petronius - I think it would be good to change the title for the Games.\", Marcus began.\n\"Such as ?\", Petronius queried, raising an eyebrow,\n\"Well... as it is now quite some time since I 'recovered', I don't think that it's really appropriate for it to be a Ludi giving thanks for my recovery - I think that we could think of a title which would look more to the future - and perhaps reflect people's feeling about the reign of our new emperor, Vespasian.\", Marcus explained.\n\"So what do you suggest.\", Petronius asked, hoping that Marcus would get to the point.\n\"I suggest 'Ludi ad auspicari novam aetatem'\", Marcus said grandly.\n('Games to Inaugurate a New Era')\n\"Yes....very clever, and very apt.\nWhat can I say ?\", Petronius said, sitting back and taking a swig of wine.\n\"You agree ?\", Marcus asked, with boyish enthusiasm.\n\"Of course - but it will mean all the posters being changed.\", Petronius replied.\n\"No problem !\", Marcus replied.\nLudi (among other events) were publicised with either paintings made directly on the walls of buildings, or paintings on canvas, stretched on frames, and attached to walls or columns. Very few good examples survive, Many examples, of very poor quality, come from Pompeii. Most of the work was executed by Greek slaves employed by Roman entrepreneurs.\n\"Now the next thing is the banners (Latin - 'Vexillum').\nHave they been delivered from Neapolis - and are they ready to be put up round the Amphitheater ?\", Marcus asked.\n\"To both your questions, sir, the answer is yes.\", Petronius answered, grinning.\nAnd then there is the equipment for the fighters.\", Marcus continued.\n\"We need Greek style helmets for the Trojans and the Greeks - so they need to be ordered from our Greek supplier in Neapolis.\nWe can go there tomorrow, and see some designs, and make an order.\nWe also need some different loincloths for the gladiators.\nThe black leather ones were good for the Munera, but we need something more festive for this Ludi\nI suggest something in 'cloth of gold' to match the banners.\nPerhaps we could order them from the same suppliers.\"\nAureum Panno\nYes - the Romans had gold (and silver and bronze) lam\u00e9 - known to them as 'cloth of gold' or 'gold cloth' ('aureum panno'). It was a fabric woven with a gold-wrapped or spun weft - referred to as \"a spirally spun gold strip\". In most cases, the core yarn is silk wrapped (fil\u00e9) with a band or strip of high content gold. In some instances, fine linen and wool is used as the core. True lam\u00e9 is a type of fabric woven with thin ribbons of metallic fiber, as opposed to 'guip\u00e9', where the ribbons are wrapped around a fibre yarn. It was fabulously expensive in Roman times - but then Marcus, - as he was beginning to discover - was fabulously rich. The decorations on the mourning tunics and cloaks of Marcus' associates were cloth of gold, and also the banners - to be put up all round the amphitheatre (both inside and outside) for the 'Ludi ad auspicari novam aetatem', and also the decorations on the arena-slaves tunics, and the loincloths to be worn by the gladiators.\n\"And we need a special helmet for Achilles - so he stands out.\" Marcus enthused.\n\"Well I certainly think our Paris will 'stand out' !\", Petronius said, grinning and taking advantage of the (probably unintended) 'double entendre' in Marcus words.\n\"Yes.... well enough said.\", Marcus replied glancing at Demetrius to see if he had 'caught on' - which it seemed he probably hadn't - but then the boy hadn't see Paris 'in action'.\n\"And perhaps we can have some of the gladiator helmets gilded ?\", Petronius suggested.\n\"I don't see why not.\", Marcus replied, relaxed now after a meal and after sorting out various aspects of the upcoming Ludi.\n\"So - you enjoyed your meal ?\", Marcus asked, turning to Demetrius.\n\"Very much, domine.\", Demetrius replied.\nThe boy then continued.\nDemetrius Marcus and Petronius leave the Thermopolium\n\"I hope you don't mind me asking, but could I come with you when you go to Neapolis ?\"\n\"You can ask for anything, my boy - and most of the time you shall get it.\" Marcus replied, rather over generously perhaps, but then he was so pleased to see Demetrius finally beginning to respond to things around him in a more 'natural' and 'healthy' way.\n\"And I think that Petronius and I would very much like you to come to Neapolis with us.\"\n\"Thank you, domine.\" Demetrius replied shyly.\n\"And now, Petronius - pay the man the bill, and I think that we should collect the horses from the amphitheatre, and make our way back to the villa.\", Marcus concluded.\nULTIMA APPARATUS\n'Final Preparations' - So Demetrius did go the Neapolis with Marcus and Petronius.\nOn that day Glaux, the owl, was left quietly 'snoozing', with his little talons deftly clinging to the back of one of Marcus' chairs.\nWhile Marcus, Petronius and Demetrius rode in a comfortable carpentum (carriage), Adonios, Aurarius, who would be doing all the fetching and carrying, larked about on the back of a plostrum (cart).\nMarcus had given up any pretence of sitting around, unshaven and fasting, for nine days (the prescribed mourning period), as he felt that he had fulfilled all his obligations to the late Dominus by the ceremonies that he had arranged for the funeral and munera, and the additional funeral for Ariston - and such ceremonies (and such immense expenditure) were unheard of in even the most patrician of families - and in addition his architect, Lucius Septimius Severus, in Rome, had already received a commission from Terentius to build an immense and lavish mausoleum ('Mausoleo Domus de Gracchi') for the late Dominus.\nNow just in case you think that they should be travelling in a chariot, as is seen in so many films and TV series - this would probably not be the case. The chariot, for the Romans, had associations with Homer and the early, heroic Greeks, and normally only appeared in two definite situations in Roman life - in the Circus, when racing, and for triumphal processions. The chariot had originated as a mobile 'weapons and fighting platform', and was not really suitable as a normal means transport, as it provided no protection from the elements, and required those using it to stand (and keep their balance) for the whole journey. The Roman 'quadriga' - four horsed chariot - was also difficult to drive, and too large for most Roman roads in towns. Marcus did own chariots, however, but they were the equivalent of modern, two seat 'sports' or racing cars.\nTerentius had previously sent fast-riding messengers to Neapolis, to the Greek craftsmen and artisans that were commonly used by the villa and amphitheatre for supplies, while at the same time ordering wood from local suppliers for the funeral pyre for unlucky boy who was to play the part of Patroclus.\nSo when Marcus' carriage, along with the accompanying wagon arrived in Neapolis there were numerous tradesmen ready for what they hoped would be lucrative orders.\nOn arrival at the armourers, for the Greek style helmets and other weapons, all was going well until Adonios and Aurarius decided to stage their own gladiatorial combat, picking up swords and helmets, in the confines of the shop - (Demetrius had waited in the carriage - still nervous and shy)\nSoon helmets, breastplates, spears and swords were collapsing in heaps, and the whole shop was on the verge of becoming a ruin.\nThe boys, after being confined in the villa for so long during the, solemnities of mourning, were understandably frisky, but Marcus thought that things were getting out of hand.\nWith an angry shout, (unusual for Marcus), and a smart smack on the head for both lads, Marcus soon put them in their place.\nWhile the alarmed staff slowly put things back in place, and Adonios and Aurarius desperately hoped that the floor would open up and swallow them, Marcus proceeded, to carry on as normal, as if nothing had happened, ordering some new lightweight, gilded gladiator helmets to match the silver helmets already held in the Ludus 'Armamentarium' (armoury).\n(These were not the ornately decorated, heavy 'parade' helmets - as were recovered from the ruins of Pompeii - but lightweight fighting helmets)\nAlso Marcus bought a number of greaves (leg armour) - both in silvered and gilded metal.\nDesign for the helmet for Achilles\nFinally Marcus and Petronius had a discussion with the Greek workshop owner about a design for a special Greek helmet.\nThis was to be the helmet for Achilles.\nCarefully the Greek armourer sketched out a design, making alterations here and there.\nMost of the discussion was with Petronius - who spoke 'Koine' Greek well, rather than the educated Greek that Marcus had recently been taught by Aristarchos, his tutor.\nEventually a design was agreed, and a fair copy was made to be given to Marcus as an indication of the final piece of work.\nIn this way the sketch acted as a form of contract - (this was the system used by Terentius with the second 'pugio' (dagger) made in Rome for Marcus.)\nIt was then time to agree a price, and again Petronius handled this matter.\nKoine Greek - from Koine \u1f21 \u03ba\u03bf\u03b9\u03bd\u1f74 \u03b4\u03b9\u03ac\u03bb\u03b5\u03ba\u03c4\u03bf\u03c2, \"the common dialect\"), also known as Alexandrian dialect, common Attic or Hellenistic Greek, was the common supra-regional form of Greek spoken and written during Hellenistic and Roman antiquity. It evolved from the spread of Greek following the conquests of Alexander the Great in the 4th century BC, and served as the 'lingua franca' of much of the Mediterranean region and the Middle East during the following centuries. It was based mainly on Attic and related Ionic speech forms, with various admixtures brought about through dialect leveling with other varieties - Petronius, Adonios and Aurarius all spoke Koine, as well as many people in southern Italy (that part of Italy originally having been a Greek colony). Marcus had spoken some Koine when he lived in Athens, by had been encouraged to abandon it by his Greek tutor, under the influence of the late Dominus. In the Roman Empire more people spoke Koine than Latin.\nFinally a price was agreed for the other, less valuable items (less costly because they came from 'stock'), and Adonios and Aurarius were then handed bundles of spears, and later swords and helmets and greaves, to load onto the (carefully guarded) cart standing outside the shop.\nThe next stop was at the tailors, where Marcus and Petronius spent time looking at the cloth of gold fabric, and selecting a suitable 'Greek' style of loincloth for the gladiators - accompanied by some rather risqu\u00e9, whispered remarks from Adonios regarding the sizes of gladiator's genitals.\nThe tailor was then told to arrive at the villa the following morning with both gold and silver material to deal with sizes (regardless of what Adonios had said), and fittings of the slaves in question.\nThe gold and silver thongs were to match the gold and silver helmets.\n\u03ba\u03bb\u03af\u03bd\u03b7 - kline\nThe final stop was a furniture workshop, where a suitably large and robust - and essentially Greek style couch (\u03ba\u03bb\u03af\u03bd\u03b7 - kline) was ordered for the 'erotic' scene between Paris, (playing Achilles), and the slave-boy playing Patroclus - and Adonios had already been warned by Marcus not to make any further comments.\nWith the boys loading the couch onto the wagon, Marcus and Petronius checked with one another, to see if they needed any other items.\nFinally, a quick 'standing snack' at a beach-side thermopolium, and it was back onto the wagon and the carriage for the journey to the villa.\nThe following day, (after the trip to Neapolis), preparations continued at the Ludus - while, at the villa, there was still a sense of reverential quiet as the end of the period of mourning rapidly approached.\nAs usual, Petronius left his senior arena-slave, Theon, to manage affairs at the Ludus, while he took Demetrius to the villa pool and gymnasion for a fitness session, as there was not time to go to the public gymnasion or beach at Baiae.\nMeanwhile, Marcus was giving Adonios and Aurarius a 'dressing down' regarding their 'high spirits' the previous day at Neapolis, while a rather sleepy, Glaux, from the vantage point of Marcus' shoulder, glowered at them disapprovingly.\nThe point of his talk was that, while high spirits were natural in boys of their age, they should remember that firstly they were the special slaves of a renowned Dominus, and secondly that they were still officially in a period or mourning, and wearing mourning clothes, which made their behaviour appear inappropriate.\nThe boys, of course, were penitent, and more than grateful that Marcus did not have them punished.\nMarcus then held discussions with Terentius and his clients, before going to the amphitheatre.\nHaving rode out to the amphitheatre, accompanied only by two villa-guards, Marcus (who had left Adonios and Aurarius, under the watchful eye of Glaux, to clean his private apartments as a penance for their behaviour the previous day), arrived at the Ludus to oversee the arrival of various items from Neapolis and Baiae.\nThe tailors from Neapolis were already busy at work, measuring up the prospective gladiators for their new loincloths, which they were practically 'sewn' into - as Petronius was insistent on an almost 'skin-tight' fit.\nThe Romans used iron, bronze, and by the time of our story, steel needles. The impression that we have of loosely draped, un-tailored garments is mainly the result of the Roman obsession with traditional forms (the totally impracticable toga, for instance - only worn as a result of punitive government legislation), and tailored (sewn) clothes and leather-work were created where necessary. The loincloths (subligar or subligaculum) worn in the arena - as often portrayed in films and TV series (strongly resembling babies nappies) are unlikely to have been worn in reality, as they were almost certainly unconformable, restrictive to movement, and would probably have come loose and fallen away as soon as any violent activity was undertaken. All clothing in Roman times was expensive, and items of clothing were often worn until they literally fell apart. Sewn garments, in particular, were extremely expensive, and it was only the very wealthy, like Marcus, who could afford sewn clothing, expensively dyed in exotic colors, and highly decorated and embroidered, and made of expensive fabrics such as silk and cloth of gold.\nThe armour and weapons were checked for quality, and the helmets for fit.\nWhile in Neapolis, Marcus had seconded a Greek artist from Neapolis, with whom he then discussed the setting for the tableaux of Achilles and Patroclus, while the 'kline' (Greek style couch) was inspected.\nThe problem with staging a scene like the tableaux of Achilles and Patroclus was the fact that the action - a sexual encounter between the two warriors, would normally occur in a tent in the Greek camp.\nSuch a setting would hide the action from the audience, and even a tent positioned somewhere in the arena - with the action occurring outside the tent (unlikely), would still block some of the view for some of the audience.\nApelles' Sketch\nSo Marcus' clever Greek (who was also working on the new posters advertising the Ludi) composed a detailed sketch in which the 'kline' (couch) was positioned inside some rough cut stones, set in a circle, to suggest the confines of a tent or hut.\nAnd Marcus was very pleased, because it looked good and uncluttered, communicated the right information, and allowed a full view of Paris (playing the part of Achilles) and his young slave boy (playing the part of Patroclus) - which hopefully would interest the audience.\nSubsequently, so pleased was Marcus with the young Greek's work, that Marcus took on the young man, (with the approval of Petronius and Terentius), as his 'in-house' painter and designer.\nThis previously peripatetic artist called himself Apelles, (obviously wanting to associate himself with the famous painter),\nUnusually, Apelles was not a slave, but was taken on as a an independent individual, and was paid a handsome retainer, and given accommodation at whatever Villa or Domus at which Marcus was staying.\nSoon after being contracted to work for Marcus, Terentius arranged Roman citizenship for the young man.\nOn the same day that Marcus received his first designs from Apelles at the Amphitheatre, Marcus also supervised the installation of a new sculpture over the Key-stone of the 'Porta Libitinaria' (Gate of Death).\nPreviously the sculpture had been a representation in grey marble of a Gorgon's head.\nThe new sculpture was a gilded bronze wreath, surrounding a pure silver grinning skull.\nMarcus thought that such an image would be a suitably horrific reminder to the conspirators who were to be executed (Servius, Menelaus, Glykon and Petram) of their eventual fate.\nFinally the wood arrived from Baiae, which puzzled many of those working in the Ludus.\nThey thought it very unlikely that the 'conspirators', who were to be executed, would be given any funeral rites, let alone be cremated, and were unaware that the corpse of the slain slave-boy, (playing the part of Patroclus), would be given a Greek style funeral and cremation, as part of a tableaux, while supposedly 'Trojan' prisoners were sacrificed around his burning pyre.\nFINIS LUCTUM\n'The End of Mourning' - Eventually the 'C\u0113na Novendi\u0101lis' (Feast of the Nine Days) arrived.\nOn that day all work in the Ludus and the Arena came to a standstill, and the slaves and freedmen, for once, got a 'day off'.\nAt the villa, however, work went on as usual, as the banqueting hall was prepared for the 'C\u0113na', and one of the peristyle gardens was made ready, with six temporary altars for the final sacrifices.\nOn this day, in the morning, the chief magistrate of Baiae came to the villa to oversee the ceremony where Terentius formally gave Marcus the documents relating to his his vast inheritance.\nBy his side at this ceremony was Tribune Petronius, Counselor Novius, Demetrius, Adonios (with Glaux on his shoulder) and Aurarius.\nAnd so, on that day, Marcus was finally and truly 'Gracchus Domo Domini' (Master of the House of Gracchus).\nIn the late afternoon the feast (C\u0113na) was held in the banqueting hall, and Lucius (Marcus Latin tutor) made a third reading of the eulogy to Gnaeus Octavian Gracchus.\nAt the end of the C\u0113na, Marcus and the guests made their way to the starlit peristyle garden, where six altars stood.\nFour of the altars, each holding a cinerary urn of one of the Munera fighters, flanked the altar on which stood the cinerary urn of Ariston.\nIn the centre, in front of the row of five altars stood a larger altar, on which stood the magnificent urn containing the ashes of the late Dominus.\nPrayers were said, libations to the 'Manes' were made, and incense was burned - and so the funerary rites for the late Dominus, and his favourite slave, were completed - and the 'Novam \u00c6tatem' (new era) - 'ad aetatem Marcus Octavianus Gracchus' - was begun.\nADVENTUM TITUS VESPASIANUS\n'Arrival of Titus Vespasianus' - On the day after the nine days of mourning ended there was frantic activity in the amphitheatre in Baiae, and in the villa.\nImperial messengers had arrived from Rome, giving the news that Titus and his suite was following close behind - he was obviously holding true to his promise to visit the first Ludi after the conclusion of the funeral rites for the late Dominus.\nAnd so preparations had to be made for his accommodation at the villa, and the imperial eagle had to be put in place on the balcony of the Pulvinar in the arena.\nIt had been arranged by courier that, after his arrival, Titus would be given three days to relax before the Ludi.\nOne day would be taken up with reviewing possible sites for his intended new villa, one day would involve a visit to Cumae, to see the temple that had been renovated by the 'Divine Augustus', and one day to relax before the Ludi.\nSo Petronius had only three day to prepare everything for the Ludi.\nFortunately the advertisements, painted on canvas, had been completed by local artisans, under the supervision of Apelles, and were in place all over the town, and some had even been placed in Cumae and Neapolis - and Apelles was also busy supervising the setting for the main tableaux.\nApelles' Poster for the Ludi\nThe text for the poster reads: 'The Games to Inaugurate a New Era' - Marcus Octavius Gracchus presents in the Amphitheatre of Baiae - in the presence of Titus Vespasianus - Gladiators, Wrestlers, Boxers, Executions and Tableaux. As the date of the event was dependent on Titus - 'stickers' were added daily to the advertisements by arena-slaves stating 'MOX ADVENTU' - loosely translated as 'coming soon' - and then, 'CRASTINUS DIES' (tomorrow), and eventually HODIE (today !).\nEqually, old Vulcan, the villa metal worker, was busy constructing some fiendish contraptions, designed by Petronius, to be used for the torture and execution of the condemned prisoners.\nTitus arrived, as he had promised, boyishly excited by the prospect of buying land for a villa by the sea, and the prospect of what he anticipated would be an excellent Ludi.\nAlthough they had first met only a couple of weeks before, Titus treated Marcus as an old friend, and was eager to renew his acquaintance with Adonios and Aurarius - but more particularly Glaux - (and Marcus was pleased to note that it was the owl, and not his slave-boys that were the real attraction for Titus - Marcus did not want a repetition of the situation with Nymphidius and Petram.\nMarcus, who was still busy with the preparations for the Ludi, put Titus into the care of Terentius and Adonios, who gave the son of the emperor a trip round Baiae, and then a series of discussions with land owners in the local area (clients of Marcus), who were only too willing, and honored, to offer the heir to the Imperium land on which he could build a villa.\nMarcus had decided to take Aurarius with him to the amphitheatre.\nMarcus had been thinking that he had been somewhat neglecting Aurarius.\nThe boy had originally been bought by Terentius for the late Dominus, and had been subsequently been 'dumped' with Adonios - to 'learn the rope's.\nMarcus now felt that it was time for him to build a stronger relationship with the boy, and decided to encourage the lad to take an interest in the amphitheatre.\nThey rode out to Baiae, following the carriage containing Titus, Terentius, Adonios and one of Titus' Praetorian tribunes.\nThey then turned off, into the Ludus entrance of the amphitheatre.\nPetronius was already hard at work with Theon (the senior arena-slave), supervising the final preparations.\nMarcus and Petronius greeted one another, and Aurarius, who was somewhat in awe of Petronius, gave the Tribune and Master of the Arena a slight bow.\n\"Today we must decide on who is to play the part of Patroclus.\", Marcus began.\n\"It's difficult, because we need a very handsome boy, but one that we can afford to lose.\"\nPetronius looked to Theon.\n\"Well, Theon has suggested a lad.\nHe could be ideal, because he's been condemned to be executed - so we couldn't use him in the future anyway, and he is very good looking.\", Petronius replied.\nMap of the Bay of Naples\n\"And where's he from ?\", Marcus asked.\n\"We don't want a popular local lad being outnumbered by a group of fighters, killed and stripped, and his corpse then publicly burned - it might cause a bad reaction.\", Marcus warned.\n\"According to the information from the magistrates, he's from Stabiae.\", Theon explained.\n\"Good ! That's far enough away.\", Marcus replied.\n\"So let's see him - naked of course.\", Petronius ordered.\nAn arena-slave was then sent off to fetch the boy.\nMoments later the boy was brought for inspection.\nHe was, as Theon had suggested, very handsome, and in his late teens - well, but elegantly muscled, and 'well-endowed'.\n\"What's your name, boy ?\", Petronius asked.\n\"Varus, Dominus.\" the boy replied.\nPetronius smiled.\n\"I'm not the Dominus !\n\"This,\", gesturing to Marcus, \"Is the Dominus\", Petronius said quietly.\n\"I'm sorry !\", the boy stammered, blushing.\n\"Do you speak Greek - and can you read, Varus ?\", Petronius continued.\n\"I only know Latin, and I only read little, sir\", the boy replied, obviously surprised at the question.\n\"Do you know anything of Homer, or the Iliad ?\", Petronius asked.\n\"I'm sorry sir, I don't understand these questions.\", the boy answered, obviously getting flustered.\n\"No problem.\", Petronius replied.\n\"So can you handle a sword ?\", Petronius asked, perusing his interrogation.\n\"Yes sir, a little.\", the boy replied, more confidently.\n\"Well, young man, we are going to give you an opportunity.\nFirst you must do some acting - and then you must fight - and who knows, if you win, you could go free.\nFor the acting you will have to portray the boy who is loved by a Greek hero - you get what I'm meaning ?\", Petronius asked coyly.\n\"You mean I'm gonna get fucked ?\" the boy replied nervously.\n\"Exactly, Varus - and then you get to fight your way - possibly - to freedom.\n\"Can you do that ?\", Petronius explained, ending with a question.\n\"Well yes - I've been fucked many times, and I will put up a good fight if I'm given a sword - and it's better that getting impaled on a cross, with no chance to be freed ..... and I've not got any choice really - have I ?\"\n\"Precisely !\", Petronius agreed.\n\"I'm glad you are willing to co-operate.\nPetronius and Varus\nIn the end it will be best for you.\", Petronius concluded, and then gestured for the boy to be taken away.\n\"An ideal choice, I think.\", Marcus reflected,\nPetronius turned to Theon.\n\"Get the boy and Paris to have a couple of 'run throughs' - and use the 'kline'.\nThey're supposed to be lovers, so we don't want the fuck to look like a rape.\nAnd at least the boy can enjoy it, before he's killed.\nAnd give the lad some practice with a sword - he's supposed to be a Greek hero, not a 'street boy'.\"\n\"Of course, sir\", Theon replied, and then followed the arena-slave and Varus back to the Ludus.\nThis interview, of course, was in no way typical of the interactions between masters and slaves.\nNormally it was simply a matter of orders being given to slaves.\nIn this case, however, Petronius knew that a certain amount of subterfuge was require if he was to get the result he needed - a live slave giving a convincing 'performance' - and he remembered all too well the disastrous outcome with Arrachion - who was well aware of the eventual fate of the Minotaur, and chose a private, dignified end, rather than a humiliating death in front of the amphitheater audience.\nWhile Aurarius, who was not as yet well educated, knew nothing of the story of Achilles and Patroclus, he had guessed that the good looking boy, who was just a little older than himself, was being tricked into being raped and killed in the arena - and as a slave, he could imagine himself in a similar situation.\nHe was brave enough to tell Marcus, later, that he felt sorry for the young lad.\nNormally Marcus would have been annoyed by such, as he saw it, 'weak' feelings, but as he was keen to develop a good relationship with the boy he took time to explain the situation.\n\"You must understand,\" Marcus explained, \"that while this boy seems pleasant, he is, in fact a runaway slave who survives by being a 'rent-boy', - a boy who 'gives himself ' for money.\nHis first crime was to run away from his master.\nHis second crime was to lure a man with an offer of cheap sex, and then kill the man and rob him.\nFor this he was condemned to the arena to be executed.\nNow there are many ways to be executed.\nMost of them are, quite rightly, appallingly humiliating and painful.\nFor this boy, as he was prostituting himself, it seems appropriate that he should be sexually 'abused' in the arena - although, in his case not painfully or unpleasantly.\nHis death, also, will be quick and easy - and Petronius has ordered that his throat should be cut, and he should not be mutilated, either before or after his death.\nHis body will finally be cremated - although not with all the usual rituals - so he will at least be sent off in reasonable style to the next world.\nSo I think that it is unwise to waste your pity on him.\"\nMarcus looked to Aurarius for a response.\n\"I understand, Dominus. I did not realize.\nThank you for explaining it to me.\", Aurarius answered - chastened by Marcus' careful explanation.\nThe next day, which was fine and sunny, Marcus and Novius accompanied Titus, travelled by carriage, to Cumae, to view the Augustan temple, and the statue of Apollo that the late Dominus had donated to the Temple.\nTitus was impressed with the statue, commenting favourably on the likeness of the statue to Petronius.\nAlthough they did not seek a favour from the Sibyl, they entered the caves, and during their time there Marcus recounted his experiences when he had visited Cumae with the late Dominus - and it all seemed to Marcus so long ago, and part of another life.\nNovius then went on to explain to Titus the significance of the prophecies, and in particular the first oracle which referred to Titus' father, Vespasian, coming from the East to take the Imperium.\nAs a result of these conversations Titus promised that further endowments and embellishments would be made to the temple, by himself and the Emperor in the very near future.\nThere was then just one day to go before the Ludi.\nTitus and some of his Tribunes went riding in the surrounding area, getting a feel of the beautiful coastline surrounding Baiae, while Marcus and Petronius made the final checks on the various aspects of the upcoming Ludi.\n'Marcus finally presents his 'Games to Inaugurate a New Era' - in the presence of Titus Vespasianus.\nThe Games provides him with the opportunity to stage the executions of what are now known as the 'Coniurati' - the conspirators - and also his long awaited tableaux - 'Achilles and Patroclus - planned to end with a magnificent conflagration.\nAlso featured are gladiators, boxers and wrestlers, and dancing and mime in the intervals.'\n'LUDI AD AUSPICARI NOVAM AETATEM'\n(Games to Inaugurate a New Era - I)",

        "raw_content": "Serious Overcharge\nIn September, I went for a stress test at St. Joseph Hospital in Brainerd, MN. My breathing is poor because of previous lung cancer so my performance was poor. I had told the doctor this but he insisted on the stress test. I didn\u2019t last long. The nurse gave me a nitro pill. She walked three paces to a cabinet, got the pill, put it in a little white cup, came back and gave it to me.\nI later received a bill for $41.50. Trusting the hospital and my insurance, I paid it.\nA month later, I received another bill for $220 for medication that Medicare and Medica would not pay.\nSo I got a list of the medications and what the hospital was charging me. I found out that the charge of $41.50 was for the nitro pill. The charge for the ONE pill was $41.50. At my regular pharmacy, they cost me $1.25 a piece. I am sure my pharmacy is making a profit at $1.25.\nThis is atrocious. There is simply no way that there is $40 worth of effort to get that pill. Unless of course that was a very expensive little, white cup.\nSo, as I said, I got a list of the medications that I was being charge $220 by the hospital. I developed an Excel spreadsheet with their charges, the charges at the local pharmacy and the percentage difference. At the pharmacy, it would have been $7.55.\nI sent all this information with a cover letter to the hospital administrator along with a check for $15.10 - wanted them to have a profit. I figured the hospital would simply ignore my concerns. They would dog me with collections. They have all the power.\nI received a call from the chief financial officer. They were accepting my check as payment in full. He apologized for the cost of the meds and explained that the price I found from my retail pharmacy was the price they paid also. He said they were looking into how to reduce their charges. Hummmmmm.\nThis is one of the reasons why our insurance is so high. It is time our elected state and federal senators and representatives do something about this. They still are working for us, aren\u2019t they?\nIt is tough enough having to go to the hospital. Going to the hospital should not involve me having to battle for reasonable prices. It is stressful for any of us.",

McGilchrist shared the glory with fellow photographer Marvin Bartley who earned the public vote for Artist of the Year. The Superplus Under 40 Artist of the Year 2012 opened at the Mutual Gallery on November 1, 2012 and the winners were announced on Monday, November 19 2012.\nGilou Bauer, director of the Mutual Gallery, pointed to the overwhelming public interest that the 2012 exhibition has received. Bauer explained that for the first time in the competition\u2019s 12 year history, it is managing to attract the number of patrons that they have been wanting to see flock to the gallery\u2019s doors.\n\u201cWe\u2019re trying to get the information out that what our young artists are doing is important and that they have a very powerful voice,\u201d she said.\nAs a part of her prize, McGilchrist receives the opportunity to stage a solo exhibition at the Mutual Gallery, along with a $100,000.00 purse. Bartley earned $50,000.00 as the winner of the public vote.\nThe 2012 shortlist comprised McGilchrist, Bartley, Leasho Johnson and Berette McCaulay. Of the four, Johnson was the sole painter with the other three submitting photography. According to Bauer, McGilchrist is the third photographer to have copped the prize. She noted that photography was increasingly popular amongst the contestants.\nBauer explained that while the competition encourages and is open to new media, they are particularly interested in the development of new styles. She noted that the judges were very impressed with Johnson\u2019s integration of paintings and three-dimensional objects.\nThe installations of all four artists explored ideas of identity from very different angles. Bauer noted that this interest in identity has been a growing trend in content of participants over the past 10 years. She argues that this was a very positive step.\n\u201cI am glad to see artists looking beyond themselves,\u201d Bauer said, explaining that this outward focus augers well for international recognition.\nThe exhibition has received an extended run and is now slated to close on Friday, August 30, 2012.\nJamaican Film Industry Poised for Growth Says Veteran Producer Natalie Thompson",

I\u2019ve also completed a few novels, but I\u2019ve never published any. That said, I have opinions. I know \u2013 shocking! So when someone asked a question, I was only too ready to answer.\nAdvice to Aspiring Novelists 1: Perfect Your Craft\nOriginally published 8 Jul 2009.\nI promised a while back to make a post about my thoughts on publishing a novel. it was in response to a comment/question from Brad: \u201c. . . what advice would you give for someone who wants to write novels?\u201d\nI\u2019m not a published novelist, so this is an amateur\u2019s take on the situation based on this amateur\u2019s previous attempts to get a novel published.\nThis kind of grew beyond what I intended. For this post, I\u2019m just going to look at my first piece of advice. I\u2019ll be back with more later.\nThe first thing you as an aspiring novelist need to do? Perfect your craft. That craft, of course, being writing. Which kind of leads into the question, how does one perfect one\u2019s craft? I would suggest writing, critiquing, and reading.\nWrite as much and as often as you can. Any kind of writing helps, but to perfect the craft of writing a novel, you really need to flex you novel writing muscles. That means, write in the novel format. It doesn\u2019t mean you have to always be working on finishing a novel \u2014 though if you want to publish one, finishing many is kind of important \u2014 but it does mean you should be writing for a novel length project that may or may not ever see completion.\nYou should be involved in a critiquing group. An in-person group is the best, but Critters is the next best thing. And, of course, you could do both. Critiquing another\u2019s work is a great way to learn what does and does not work. By critiquing other writers\u2019 works, you will improve your own. And by reading other peoples\u2019 critiques of your work, you will improve it. Just remember to provide constructive criticism, and do not take criticism of your work personally.\nIf you don\u2019t have a thick skin, grow it before you join a critiquing group. Occasional evidence to the contrary, writers need to learn to accept criticism \u2014 even that which is not constructive \u2014 gracefully. This doesn\u2019t mean that you need to accept everyone\u2019s criticism, it means you graciously receive it and don\u2019t fight or argue with the person providing it.\nWhen you get criticism of your work, consider it thoughtfully. For me, that means I need to read it, get upset (they don\u2019t understand my work! The Philistines!) then come back to it in a few days and evaluate it dispassionately (huh, look at that, they\u2019re right, this doesn\u2019t work). Some criticism you\u2019ll accept, some you\u2019ll reject. In the end it is your work . . . at least until someone pays you for it!\nAnd read. Read novels in the genre in which you write. Read novels in genres in which you don\u2019t write. Read non-fiction, especially when you are doing research. Read short stories. Read scripts. Read the instructions. Read cereal boxes. Read, read, read. Reading inculcates the rules of writing into your subconscious. If you read enough, you will learn proper usage. You will expand your vocabulary. You might even learn a few tricks.\nDon\u2019t always read as a novelist. Read as a reader. There are times when you do want to read as a novelist, when you want to dissect the work of other writers and see what makes it tick. Why does this novel work? How does this writer build tension? Why are these characters so compelling? But you also want to read as a reader, to enjoy the novel, to lose yourself in it.",

Can it be opened during an operation, or by going on a journey to a religious or sacred destination? In meditation, we understand that the third eye means the ability to understand and to perceive (realize) correctly. Then, on the basis of that perception (realization) or insight (understanding); to act and behave accordingly. In other words, on the basis of spiritual truths, we think, speak and act so that peace and well-being become natural in our life.\nSpiritual values, or truths, are necessary for genuine improvement of the human condition and life.\nThe third eye is the intellect of the soul \u2013 when it is open, there is realization of the need to improve, change and/or create something that will help the self and others to make the quality of life better.\nProjection: When something goes wrong, I usually blame others and consider them the cause of my distress and unhappiness.

        "title": "Simon vs The Homo Sapiens Agenda by Becky Albertalli | Teens on Moon Lane",
        "raw_content": "Simon Spier is sixteen, gay, and not out yet. But he IS enjoying a rather wonderful e-mail flirtation with Blue, another student at his school \u2013 it\u2019s just that neither of them know the other\u2019s identity offline. Simon is hoping that the secretive Blue will eventually let him in \u2013 and then things take a turn for the worst, as fellow student Martin gets his hands on an e-mail, decides he can use this knowledge to pressure Simon into hooking him up with Simon\u2019s friend Abby. Can Simon manage to come out on his own terms and win the boy of his dreams? And how will his friends and family react?\nI have read a lot of amazing books with LGBT characters over the last few years, and would have immense difficulty picking the absolute best. How can you compare Lisa Williamson\u2019s stunning contemporary The Art Of Being Normal with BR Collins\u2019s gorgeous historical romance Love In Revolution, or Holly Black\u2019s fabulous fantasy The Darkest Part of the Forest, and say one is better than the other when they \u2013 and numerous others \u2013 are all pretty much perfect? That said, if I was asked which novel about an LGBT main character I\u2019d had the most fun reading, Simon Vs The Homo Sapiens Agenda would win hands down. In fact, it\u2019s so utterly wonderful that it\u2019s taken me several months to get my thoughts on it down from incoherent squeeing to (hopefully) slightly more coherent analysis of just why it stands out so much.\nFirstly, it\u2019s significantly lighter than many books I\u2019ve read about LGBT teens, despite the blackmail part of the plot. Simon is such an amazing character \u2013 with a great group of friends, a love of Harry Potter, and an absolutely fantastic voice. The chemistry between Simon and Blue just via e-mails is superb, and the reveal of Blue\u2019s identity is a scene which has made my heart skip a beat every time I\u2019ve read it (and that\u2019s quite a few!); it\u2019s so beautifully handled. I really liked that Simon\u2019s confident in his sexuality, as well \u2013 he\u2019s certain he\u2019s gay, and he\u2019s okay with that, with the conflict here coming from the thought of him being forced out rather than being able to come out at a time of his own choosing. In addition, Albertalli\u2019s writing style is so fun and easy to read that I\u2019ve just reread virtually the entire book after opening it briefly to double check a particular line!\nA truly lovely read, which bears repeated rereading, and which I think is one of the freshest and most delightful debuts of the year.\nI\u2019ve gone into more spoilery details than usual here, as I wanted to mention a couple of things that it\u2019s pretty impossible to do without giving away a little bit. Maybe stop reading now if that\u2019s an issue?\nI loved Simon a lot, particularly that he was a brilliant character who was very sympathetic, but who does make mistakes at times. In particular, he manages to really hurt Leah and Abby, separately, by things he should say but doesn\u2019t. However, he realises just how badly he\u2019s messed up in both cases, and talks to the two girls about it. (Yay for responsibility, and for meaningful conversations, and accepting when you\u2019ve screwed up and trying to do better in the future!) I thought the supporting cast here was outstanding, and the side romance was between two of Simon\u2019s friends was nearly as adorable as the main one. As mentioned above Blue is a superb love interest, and the contrast between Simon and Blue, with Simon being far more ready to come out than Blue is, is an interesting one.(Also Blue adds to his iPod every song that Simon mentions in his e-mails, which is just adorable \u2013 yay 21st century romance!)\nEven the guy blackmailing Simon is portrayed as somebody doing something utterly despicable but not, necessarily, a despicable person himself. It\u2019s a fine line to walk, but \u2013 probably because Simon is such a well-written character that we can believe he would potentially consider forgiving Martin, at least up to a point, and perhaps because the eventual apology he gives Simon seems completely sincere \u2013 it works. I thought Simon\u2019s family were similarly well-written, despite their embarrassing tendency to make a big deal out of everything, and there\u2019s a conversation between Simon and his father which reads absolutely perfectly \u2013 it\u2019s clear that despite not always knowing the best way to react, and sometimes having difficulty expressing himself, Simon\u2019s father loves him and wants him to be happy. Also, the support Simon gets from his sisters is great!\nFinally, it\u2019s really interesting to think about the assumptions people make, without even realising they\u2019re doing so, and there\u2019s a particular scene which brings this home excellently. (TOO spoilery to go into details about that, even after the warning, but you\u2019ll know it when you see it, trust me!)\nHave you read this one yet? What did you think? Leave me a comment, or link to your review!\nTags: Becky Albertalli\nMartin J Stewart says:\nSkipped the spoilers- this is high on my TBR pile! I\u2019ve heard so any brilliant things about this, and I\u2019m so interested in Simon\u2019s conflict, which sounds so strong and progressive. Everyone who\u2019s read it loves him so much, and that\u2019s a real draw for me as a reader\u2026\nCouldn\u2019t agree more. It\u2019s warm, it\u2019s real and it sincere.\nI really enjoyed this one, it\u2019s so warm and sweet and reminds me a lot of David Levithan\u2019s books!\nYes, DL is definitely a great comparison, Caitlin! So glad you and Perdita both agree with me on this one. And Martin, everyone I know ADORES Simon too \u2013 hope you get to it soon and enjoy it!\nI\u2019m reading this now and really enjoying it. I\u2019m only about 20% into it but I love that it doesn\u2019t seem to be leading up to anything huge \u2013 just Simon\u2019s everyday life, hanging out with his friends.",

        "raw_content": "Digital Signage Market 2025 Leading Key Players- Cisco Systems Inc., Hewlett-Packard Development Company L.P., Broadsign International, Inc., Brightsign LLC, Nec Display Solutions Ltd., Panasonic Corporation\n(Telecom-NewsWire.Net, July 09, 2018 ) Digital signage also referred as dynamic signage is a form of slivercasting in which multimedia content is displayed at public places for advertising or informational purposes. It consists of a computer or playback devices which are connected to electronic display devices (LCD, LED, etc.) to display content such as digital images, videos and information. Various hardware components are used in the installation of a digital signage, such as media players, content management server and one or more display screens. Digital signage are majorly employed in schools, libraries, medical facilities, department stores, office buildings, airports, train stations, bus stations, auto dealerships, banks, and other public venues. The benefit of digital signage is that the data to be displayed can be updated at real time. Additionally, the data can also be compressed for transmission and storage.\nThe increasing worldwide acceptance of digital signage due to its dynamic nature which allows the content to be updated at real time is one of the major factors driving the market globally. Furthermore, with betterment in quality and decreasing prices of displays, the use electronic displays has risen significantly, thereby propelling the global digital signage market. In addition, the improved and easy user interface of displays is expected to spur the production and adoption digital signage for different uses in various industries. Implementation of digital signage has proved to be eco-friendly as it hinders the use of paper and other non-recyclable products for displays. Additionally, with employment of LED display panels, a significant reduction in the amount of energy spent can be achieved.\nRequest Sample Copy is Available at https://bit.ly/2xJvl48\nThe high initial investment for displays and high maintenance costs are factors that hinder the global digital signage market. Additionally, power (electricity) issues, especially at remote locations, hinders the global digital signage market. Moreover, lack of awareness about digital signage and its associated benefits in developing and under-developing nations is another factor restricting the global digital signage market.\nThe growing demand for high brightness displays in various industries, especially retail, hospitality, and government to attract the targeted audience has opened a wealth of opportunities for digital signage vendors across the globe. Furthermore, emerging communication technology, and touch screen technology among others are expected to significantly boost the global digital signage market during the forecast period.\nThe digital signage market is segmented on the basis of components as hardware (such as display, media players, projectors, etc.), software and services. The market is further classified based on display types such as LED, LCD, and OLED among others. In addition, the global digital signage market is classified based on display size into 52 inches. Moreover, the digital signage market is segmented basis of applications into retail, healthcare, corporate, hospitality, government, transportation, entertainment, BFSI, and education among other industries.\nGeographically, the global digital signage market is segmented into five regions as North America, Europe, Asia Pacific (APAC), Middle East and Africa (MEA), and South America (SAM). The increasing adoption rate of interactive displays which uses various technological capabilities such as embedded location-based maps, gesture recognition, and interactive dashboards has propelled the mature digital signage market in the U.S. and the U.K. Simultaneously, it has opened opportunities in emerging regions such as APAC & MEA. Some of the key players operating within the global digital signage market include Adflow Networks, Cisco Systems Inc., Hewlett-Packard Development Company L.P., Broadsign International, Inc., Brightsign LLC, Nec Display Solutions Ltd., Panasonic Corporation, Omnivex Corporation, Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd, LG Display Co. Ltd, Planar Systems, Inc., Sharp Corporation, and Sony Corporation among others.\nInquiry before Buying at https://bit.ly/2sIBCY0",

        "raw_content": "A KENTISH DIARY\nA WEEK OFF FOR CREATIVE WHATNOTS...\nThis week I'm going to tell you a bit about what I got up to on my week off between Friday the 31st March and Friday the 7th April 2017... It was a really lovely week - just as good as the one I spent there last summer. Once again, I'd have been quite happy to have spent a couple more weeks there. I managed to have quite a lazy time and yet managed to work on some editing and post two new podcast episodes - not to mention all the new shows that I recorded. I watched loads of films, had a day-trip to Canterbury - spoke to friends in the States and took lots of photos whilst out and about... The weather was pretty good too; but I shall tell you in a little more detail... imminently!!\nFirst up I'd like to share with you my most recently published episode of THE SHY LIFE PODCAST...\nTHE SHY LIFE PODCAST - 67: ADVENTURES ON THE OTHER SIDE... (1 OF 2)\nHere we are for episode SIXTY SEVEN - where Paul and Yeti Uncle John begin recording their latest show - but once they are done some rather odd things begin to happen to Mr Yeti after he jumps on the wrong bus. It may take a little while for him to get back too!! Guest stars this time include Toppie Smellie, TLB Tim and Deadiegrams. Some sections were scripted by Paul Chandler, with ad-libs by the cast. Thank you to TLB Tim and TLB James for the use of a small section of episode 222 of Tastes Like Burning, Copyright TLB, 2016. Our next episode, number 68 - sees Mr Yeti continuing his adventure on \"the other side...\" in the 2nd part of a two part adventure!! It'll be out soon!! Both Tastes Like Burning and The Smellcast are available from iTunes. Please email me at shyyeti@yahoo.co.uk if you have any comments - you can even send me a sound-file and I'll include it on the show. The music is by Shy Yeti and Luca. This episode and all contents are Copyright Paul Chandler, 2017. Episode 67 was recorded between the 4th February and the 3rd March 2017.\n67: https://soundcloud.com/shyyeti/the-shy-life-podcast-67-adventures-on-the-other-side-1-of-2\nI'm pleased with this new episode - it took a while to put together and involved me writing scripts for some of the dialogue and also for the next show. I may share those little scripts for you in upcoming posts; we'll see. It did take me a while to decide on the final title for the episode - at one stage or other it was briefly christened THE AFTER-LIFE (which is what the files were entitled on my phone) and also DEATH ETC.\nSo, here's some of what I got up to during my week in and around Lyminge, near Folkestone...\nToday went quickly - although there was a lot of travel involved. I didn't leave home until 11am, but was safely ensconced in my little flat in Lyminge near Folkestone by 3pm. The rest of the day I let slip by whilst I unpacked and watched a bit of TV (80s sitcom, Sink Or Swim), although I did record around 10 minutes of the first SHY LIFE PODCAST that I have planned for the trip. What was recorded was all the links for the first of the 3 linked episodes that I am recording whilst away (although there are a number of other segments and a Halloween episode that I also intend to record!) It was nice to have gotten there safely and I went out for a little walk before dark... I didn't have a great deal planned for the next day - but what I did have planned meant that an early night was probably advisable... In the end I'm not sure that I did go particularly early, but there you go... #sleepyyeti\nI didn't go too far today - but I was certainly up busy! The day began early with some recording with Toppie Smellie for a whole number of forthcoming episodes. I'd like to say more - but I think I really ought to keep things under-wrap for a little longer. For the rest of the day I was busy editing episode 65 of the podcast, although I did head down to the local shop in Lyminge to buy some extra provisions. (Wine!! Okay... Not JUST wine!) On top of all this I also did a lot of recording - ranging from one of my Shy Yeti scripts to scenes from a number of episodes that I'll be posting over the next couple of months. Most of these scenes were recorded inside, as although it was sunny it was also quite breezy outside. I also stayed up late to go on the Poke It With A Stick podcast for the first time in 2017. I didn't say a lot, but I did chuckle quite a bit just to remind people that I was still there.\nSunday also began early - not quite as early as Saturday, but I was up before 7 to get ready to record with ThatPeterG from LOTSL - an interview that I've been keen to do and aim to post as episode 66 later in the week. Recording with Peter went very well and that episode was pretty much recorded in one sitting, which was nice. That morning I also recorded another random question section for a future episode along with links for future episodes that I intended to record in the week. The rest of the day is a bit of a blur - made up of films, naps and... I honestly don't remember much more of note!\nAnother sunny day and once I'd done some recording for my Halloween episode up in my apartment (!) and also published episode 65 I got outside and recorded some more for the Halloween episode and also some links for a \"little shooooow!\" that I recorded with Toppie on Saturday. I even recorded a short video to advertise that episode which I'll be able to release nearer the time. I managed to record quite a lot all in all, that day - although I didn't go far - deciding to postpone my Canterbury trip until tomorrow.\nToday I headed for Canterbury - it wasn't the sunniest of days, but I did record quite a bit for a number of forthcoming episodes! All that and I had a nice lunch in Pret, had coffee and cake in Marks And Spencers and managed to spend a bit on DVDs and blurays in HMV. My only slightly negative experience was just how busy everywhere was - not just with schoolkids on Easter holidays, but hundreds (and literally hundreds!) of French school-children visiting the city and taking up all the space in what I had presumed was going to be a nice peaceful park... (It was quiet there last summer when I last visited!) Never mind - they moved on pretty quickly and although I had to share the place with some students playing football, it was slightly quieter than it was when I arrived. Not only did I get plenty of material for my show - I was able to record some bits for Toppie Smellie's Stick It Out Your Backdoor for The Smellcast. I made it home safely and continued work on editing projects - it was definitely my busiest day of my week and the furthest afield that I travelled from Lyminge.\nI stayed put for most of the day - but was certainly no slouch... I was busy working on episode 66 - which featured the ThatPeterG interview that I recorded on Sunday. Although not much editing was required it still took a while to edit and to shuffle a few segments around. As far as recording was concerned I recorded 26 different segments - most of them for the episodes that I'd been working on - but also one or two more for short appearances on both Big Fatty Online and Vera Speaks... For Real. At one stage I thought I make take another trip out of the village on Thursday - and so I wanted to get as much completed as possible. In the end it was unnecessary as I didn't go so far - but it was still good to get things done. There was still plenty of time to get out for a little outdoor recording, not to mention time to watch more of the (many) films and TV programmes that I had brought with me.\nPlans for today were a bit uncertain beforehand as I was half expecting it to be raining - but in the end the weather turned out to be really pleasant and so I was able to spend the morning backing up all my holiday recordings - but then head on out to do my last bit of outdoor location work for this trip. I also got a chance to catch up with my old friend Ceri, who I went to University with and who appeared in many of the first 1000 Sutton Park episodes between 1993 and 1995. Once we were done chatting I headed out to record the last scenes that I had planned for the episodes that I'd been working on. As I mentioned, it was a far sunnier day than I'd expected and I didn't fancy walking anywhere too energetic, but recorded a scene from an episode involving Charlie Grrr and then the last scenes of both my Halloween and third Kent episode - although due to a light breeze I ended up doing some of the final conversations back at my apartment, as it allowed me to focus a bit more on the voices and not worry about people suddenly showing up and wondering why I was doing a silly accent. In the evening I watched the last of the TV that I'd brought with me and prepared for an appearance on another little show - which actually I didn't record until the early hours of Friday...\nAs mentioned my Friday began early - at about 1.30, when I rose so that I could appear on another episode of LOTSL (my 3rd successful appearance, not counting the first time - about a year ago when I couldn't access Skype when it came to recording time!) I did manage to go back to bed for a while - but was up by around eight to finish packing, have breakfast and to be ready to depart around 9.30. Yes! It was already time to head home... The week went by so quickly - and yet I couldn't have asked for a better one! I achieved a great deal! As it was I was lucky and caught a bus just after 10 and was at Folkestone Railway Station in good time to pick up some lunch and then get a train back to London soon after 11, reaching Waterloo with time to pick up a ticket and get the 1.20 train home and was back in my flat by 2pm.! Once in I unpacked, had a nice soak in the bath - received shopping and then enjoyed supermarket pizza for dinner! Result!! I do hope that I can go back to Lyminge in 2018!\nHere are some more holiday photos that I'd like to share with you...\nI'm not yet sure quite when I'll be releasing the episodes that I recorded in Kent - quite possibly not until June and one of them won't be going anywhere until Halloween! Recording this episode also made me consider what I'd like record to celebrate my birthday, as it occurs around the same time of year as Halloween... I've pretty much worked it all out - and it should be another goodun'; a two-parter, one part going out before my birthday and one once I have returned.\nAnyway... Let's turn away from discussing October and November! We have a lot of other things to look forward to before then - although this is all we have time for this post!!\nNext time, I should have another podcast episode to tell you about and we'll hopefully have recorded our next live show - which should take place on Pride48 on Sunday 16th April 2017 (Easter Sunday) at 4pm (EDT) and 9pm (GMT) on Pride48...\nPosted by Paul Chandler at Tuesday, April 11, 2017\nLabels: COMEDY, HOLIDAYS.

        "raw_content": "The Top Electrician Services\n\u200bAspects to Prioritize When Selecting a Residential Electrician\ntheelectricalservices\nThere are those situations that hiring an electrician is the wisest thing to do. Minor electrical installations and faults can be conducted by just anyone. Yet, electrical repairs that are major are better off left in the hands of an experienced and qualified electrician. Among the services that need the expertise of a highly qualified are installing and fixing electrical switches and fixtures. A skilled electrician is bound to do the work in a perfect way. Below are some of the things that you should look into when enlisting a residential electrician.\nYou can start by considering referrals and recommendations. There are many electricians available in the market for hire. Enlisting the best one there is can be a really challenging task. You can employ many methods in your quest to find a good electrician. A good electrician can be found when you use the referrals you get or the online platforms. You should know the ratings of a particular electrician prior to considering enlisting one of them. You can get reliable recommendations from reliable friend and family. Click here for more info.\nAnother factor to consider is the experience of the electrician. Since this factor is of topmost importance, it must be considered. Reviews of any electrician are normally calculated by the time that they have been offering their services. Experience of four years and above is what makes an electrician to be looked as a pro. The kind of work that a pro electrician will provide you with will be of high quality. You will not want to be disappointed by work that is poorly done by an electrician that does not have sufficient experience.\nInsurance of an electrician aspect that should not be underestimated. An electrician that has the proper liability insurance is considered to be the most ideal for the job. Most of the services that are insured are usually looked at as critical. Reason being, your property is covered in case of an accident. Make sure that you analyze the insurance certificate of the agency from which the electrician is from. By doing this you will know whether the policy of insurance held by the agency is authentic.\nTo end with, there is the element of insurance. An electrician's license is should be looked at before one considers to enlist the services of an electrician. Electricians are normally given a license after meeting the individual needs as well as specifications. A valid license shows that the particular electricians are in a position to properly perform the job at hand.

        "raw_content": "Copac update: The National Archives Library added\nCopac National, Academic and Specialist Library Catalogue\nI'm a big fan of copac* and I use it a lot to find resources in UK and Irish libraries. Of course I use Worldcat, too, but if you are based in the UK or Ireland there are obvious advantages to using copac* to search only libraries in our two countries. The contents of many major British and Irish libraries are listed on both sites, but some are only on Copac. The two sites offer different search experiences, so where a library's holdings are on both, you might choose to use one site or the the other, depending on your requirements at the time.\nHere is today's announcement:\nCopac is pleased to announce that the Library holdings of The National Archives have been added to Copac. The collection serves primarily as a research library for users of the archive and holds approximately 65,000 books and journals as well as online resources. It is open to visitors and staff of The National Archives.\nThe Library holds publications from the 17th century onwards and is still growing. Primarily a history library, its collection includes local history record society series, military history especially covering the First and Second World Wars, family history and directories including London Post Office directories. It also houses complete sets of the published State Papers and other calendars of public records, a good collection of Acts and Statutes and a range of academic journals. A growing number of online resources are also available.\nTo browse, or limit your search to the holdings of The National Archives library, go to the main tab on copac.ac.uk and choose \u2018The National Archives Library\u2019 from the list of libraries.\nThis is a library that I know well, because I have the good fortune to work in the building where it is housed. I often think that if it was a standalone library it would be very impressive, but it is somewhat overshadowed by the millions (yes, millions) of documents in The National Archives. The library used to be in its own area of the building at Kew, behind a discreet pair of double doors leading off the old Microfilm Reading Room. I suspect that there were regular users of the archives who never even realised that there was a library. The library is still in pretty much the same location, but the doors have gone and the wall has come down, so it's hard to miss now if you are in the open-plan Research and Enquiries Room.\nIt's still not used as much as it should be, and you could be missing out if you aren't aware of some of the treasures it holds. The books, periodicals and other resources support and complement the archival holdings, and they include many volumes that are effectively finding aids to the documents. There are also many works that are the fruits of authors' research in The National Archives. These books and articles can be really useful; one of my favourite tricks is to consult works in the same general area as my own research and look at the footnotes and references. Good authors always cite their sources comprehensively and accurately, don't they?\nSo if you are planning a visit to Kew, or any other archive, it's a good idea to check out the library Books are my bag campaign to promote bookshops\ncatalogue as well as the archive catalogue. It's a good idea to check out library catalogues anyway. It just is.

        "raw_content": "Introduction to \u201cA Christ-Centered Identity\u201d\nHere\u2019s the introduction of A Christ-Centered Identity: Discovering Your God-Given Identity in His Son. This book has been written to help you become more Christ-centered and, consequently, experience more rest, peace, and comfort in your life.\nYour identity is crucial in how you view yourself and relate to others. It\u2019s the essence of what you think about yourself. On who or what is your identity primarily based? Is it your work, appearance, what others think of you, family, spouse, athletic abilities, money, possessions, children, neatness, writing, church, ministry, successes, failures, divorce, addiction, political party, etc.? The list is endless.\nWhat if the overall positive ones diminish or even fall away? What if you\u2019re injured and aren\u2019t able to perform as well as you used to? What if you\u2019re fired or permanently disabled? What if the bottom drops out of the economy? How will you handle such events, especially if your identity has been somewhat intertwined with them? Many times you\u2019re much more fragile in your identity than you would like to admit.\nWhile all these aspects of life have an obvious place in your experience, as a Christian your identity should be fully grounded in Jesus Christ and His finished work. The more it is, the more stability you\u2019ll experience, especially in the storms of life. It\u2019s ultimately the only identity that will last forever. Everything else will eventually be gone. How then are you to find your identity in Christ?\nThere\u2019s a great mystery that we, as believers in Jesus Christ, hardly seem to realize let alone clearly emphasize. Even if we do realize it, many times our experience doesn\u2019t truly confirm and convey this great reality. More often than not, we\u2019re \u201ctossed to and fro\u201d by the circumstances of life and, even more so, by our unreliable feelings. Instead of being grounded in this mystery, we try to find our rest, peace, and comfort more subjectively.\nThe mystery is that all the saved ones throughout history are part of Christ\u2019s mystical body. While we certainly can know we\u2019ve become part of His body when we were saved, there\u2019s a greater mystery. It\u2019s also true that we\u2019ve been part of His spiritual body from before the foundation of the world, having been chosen \u201cin him\u201d (Eph. 1:4).\nThat means we were fully united and entirely involved, spiritually speaking, in every part of His great work of salvation. We were \u201cin him.\u201d That\u2019s why the author of Hebrews stated that Jesus \u201ctook on him the seed of Abraham\u201d (Heb. 2:16 KJV), a reference to all believers.\nWhile specifically speaking about Jesus\u2019 death and resurrection, Paul stated that you must consider yourself \u201cdead to sin and alive to God in Christ Jesus\u201d (Rom. 6:11). He meant that you\u2019ve to fully identify yourself with His life, death, and resurrection. Is that then not also true regarding every aspect of His saving work?\nSo, when Jesus was born, you were born. When He was circumcised, you were circumcised. When He was baptized, you were baptized. When He lived righteously, you lived righteously. When He died, you died. When He rose again, you rose again. When He ascended to the Father, you ascended to the Father. When He intercedes for you, He intercedes for His body. When He will appear in glory, you will appear in glory with Him.\nThat\u2019s the mystery\u2014having been united to Jesus as His (mystical) body, even from \u201cbefore the foundation of the world.\u201d That also means that you\u2019re to find your true identity in Him alone. There\u2019s an inseparable unity that can never be broken.\nPaul made a very intriguing statement: \u201cGreat indeed, we confess, is the mystery of godliness.\u201d He then goes on to give an overview of Christ\u2019s saving work: \u201cHe [Jesus] was manifested in the flesh, vindicated by the Spirit, seen by angels, proclaimed among the nations, believed on in the world, taken up in glory\u201d (1 Tim. 3:16). The work of Jesus Christ on behalf of His body is the great mystery of godliness\u2014we\u2019re fully united to Him. That\u2019s why Paul also wrote: \u201cHere there is not Greek and Jew, circumcised and uncircumcised, barbarian, Scythian, slave, free; but Christ is all, and in all\u201d (Col. 3:11).\nThere were two triggers that led up to this book. The first one is by Isaac Ambrose and his classic Looking unto Jesus. His sole premise is that we, as believers, many times fail to do the most important \u201cgospel duty\u201d: look to Jesus from everlasting to everlasting, performing the great work of our salvation.\nThe second one is by John Bunyan and The Work of Jesus Christ as an Advocate. He addressed how Christians, through sin, can easily lose sight of their interest in being part of Christ\u2019s mystical body, being part of His inheritance. However, as our Advocate, Jesus pleads our (His!) case and keeps us graciously and legally without any charge because He\u2019s our life.\nThese two triggers have given birth to the following ten chapters. You\u2019ll see your union with Jesus and are able to find your identity in Him, no matter who you are or what you\u2019ve done. My prayer is that God will use this book to deeply ground you in this mystery, so you\u2019ll be unmoved by the circumstances of life or your unreliable feelings. That you\u2019ll look away from yourself to the One \u201cwho is your life\u201d (Col. 3:4). May He bless it accordingly!\nP.S. to receive the book launch in your email, you can sign up at www.thegloryofchrist.com/free-book\nWould You Like to become More Christ-Centered?\nA Dumb Question, right?\nAt least for a Christian, this is a dumb question: would you like to become more Christ centered? Sometimes you have to ponder a word in order to thoroughly grasp it: would you like to be more centered on the person of Jesus Christ? Do you want to have a greater and clearer focus on Him?\nThe more you\u2019re centered on Him, the more rest, peace, and comfort\u2014stability\u2014you\u2019ll experience in your heart. Who doesn\u2019t want that, right? Isaiah\u2019s words will then not only be great in concept, but also great in reality: \u201cYou keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on you . . .\u201d (Isa. 26:3).\nThe Contents and Focus\nTomorrow we\u2019ll start the book launch of \u201cA Christ Centered Identity: Discovering Your God-Given Identity in His Son.\u201d The book is divided into 10 parts with an explanation of each part, followed by 3 related devotionals. We\u2019ll look at:\nHis Eternity\nHis Circumcision\nYou\u2019ve Been United to Jesus\nThe great gospel mystery is that you\u2019ve been united to Jesus\u2014you\u2019re \u201cin Him\u201d\u2014and, as a result, you\u2019re fully involved in each of the 10 aspects. While there are many verses that confirm that truth, the one that \u201ccontrols\u201d this book is: \u201cHe took on him the seed of Abraham\u201d (Heb. 2:16 KJV).\nWhen Jesus was born, God gave Him a human body (see Heb. 10:5), which included taking on Him \u201cthe seed of Abraham.\u201d Whatever He did, they did \u201cin Him.\u201d A glorious mystery, indeed! As a believer in Jesus, you were fully involved!\nJoin the Book Launch (It\u2019s FREE!)\nI invite you to join the book launch. You\u2019ll walk through the entire book in just three minutes each day for six weeks. By God\u2019s grace, I believe this book will help you grow in a more solid Christ-centered identity. You can sign up at www.thegloryofchrist.com/christ-centered-identity in order to not miss out on any one of them.\nHave you ever had an identity crisis? Mostly, it\u2019s not something you purposely consider. You don\u2019t wake up one morning and start analyzing this issue. Do I have a strong, solid identity, or one that is weak and fragile? You may even have to think hard about what your identity really is.\nLet me give you a personal story. For seven years I was the number one sales person at my job. (No, I wasn\u2019t the only sales person). It gave me many added benefits. Last year and this year I\u2019ve not reached that position. Since I\u2019m somewhat competitive by nature, I don\u2019t like to not be number one. It gave me some prestige, especially having held it for seven consecutive years.\nSmall or Large Consequences\nI realized that part of my identity, no matter how small, was somewhat based on my performance at work. It affected me. While I certainly don\u2019t consider myself as having an identity-crisis over my number one loss, I started to see that, as a Christian, it shouldn\u2019t affect me in how I relate to myself and others, even if it\u2019s only in a small way.\nHow about you? There are many similar \u201cidentity-crises\u201d that you face in your life. If things don\u2019t go as you planned or hoped, it may affect you because your identity is somehow wrapped up in it. For example, your child doesn\u2019t behave in public as it should and portrays you as having failed in your current discipline. You overly scold him because of your \u201cidentity-crisis\u201d\u2014the desire to be the good, having-it-all-together parent that you want others to think of you.\nGod wants us you to have a Christ-centered identity\u2014one that is based on the person of Jesus Christ. He wants you to experience the freedom and joy that such an identity brings, whereby Christ is your all, sink or swim. It\u2019s when you identity yourself with Him because of having been united to Him.\nThrough His Son, God has given you a \u201cnew self.\u201d After stating that, Paul wrote: \u201cHere there is not Greek and Jew, circumcised and uncircumcised, barbarian, Scythian, slave, free; but Christ is all, and in all\u201d (Col. 3:10-11). Our identity shouldn\u2019t be based on ethnicity, religious or secular upbringing, sophistication or non-sophistication, being employed or being the employer, but solely on Christ. Obviously, we can add many other possibilities that Paul didn\u2019t mention, including having the \u201cright\u201d doctrinal knowledge, leaving one puffed up.\nJoin the Book Launch\nOn January 1st, I\u2019ll start the book launch of \u201cA Christ-Centered Identity: Discovering Your God-Given Identity in His Son.\u201d I invite you to join me. You\u2019ll walk through the entire book in just three minutes each day for six weeks. By God\u2019s grace, I believe this book will help you grow in a more solid Christ-centered identity. You can sign up at www.thegloryofchrist.com/christ-centered-identity.\nWould you like to be more grounded in the person and work of Jesus Christ? Are you longing for greater stability when the storms of life come your way? Whether you\u2019re a brand new Christian or one for many decades, your roots can always go much deeper, drawing more vital nutrition from Him.\nThe more you discover your union with Jesus\u2014a God-ordained-and-established-union\u2014the more you\u2019ll know the \u201cperfect peace\u201d He wants you to experience: \u201cYou keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on you . . .\u201d (Isa. 26:3).\nThe apostle Paul commanded the Roman believers to identify themselves with Jesus and His saving work: \u201cSo you also must consider yourselves dead to sin and alive to God in Christ Jesus\u201d (Rom. 6:11). That\u2019s not optional. It\u2019s the essence of your Christian faith.\nAre you consistently identifying yourself with Him? Do you deeply realize there\u2019s an inseparable union between Jesus and His people? These aren\u2019t marginal questions. They go to the heart of your life as a Christian.\nIn order to help you find your identity more deeply in Jesus Christ, I\u2019ve written \u201cA Christ-Centered Identity: Discovering Your God-Given Identity in His Son.\u201d You\u2019ll look at ten different aspects of Jesus and His Saving work, discovering your inseparable union with Him.\nYou\u2019ll consider His eternity, birth, circumcision, baptism, life, death, resurrection, ascension, intercession, and second coming. Each aspect is followed by three related devotionals, highlighting your union with Jesus in that particular aspect. Each devotional will only take three minutes and, I believe, will be most worthwhile.\nJoin Right Here\nYou can find out more and sign up at Christ-Centered Identity. The launch starts on January 1st. What better way to start 2017! If you know of anyone who you believe will be blessed by a growing in a Christ-Centered Identity, I encourage you to share the post or link.\nP.S. Are you wiser than Solomon? Are you stronger than Samson? Do you love God more than David? If not, click RIGHT HERE\nWhat\u2019s your identity? On what or who is your identity based? These questions, I believe, aren\u2019t simple. The essence of your identity is primarily based on how you view yourself and, consequently, relate to others.\nYour identity isn\u2019t based on one aspect, though. While you may base it largely on being a fan of a sports team, attending all the games and consistently wearing their jersey, it doesn\u2019t comprise the totality of how you identify yourself. There are many parts, including gender, race, religion, politics, and hundreds of other aspects.\nThe Merriam-Webster defines identity as follows: \u201cSameness of essential or generic character in different instances,\u201d and, \u201cSameness in all that constitutes the objective reality of a thing.\u201d My preferred understanding is: \u201cThe relation established by psychological identification.\u201d\nHow do you identity yourself? I encourage you seriously reflect on that because, as a Christian, you have to primarily and fully identity yourself with Jesus. He is to be your identity. Anything else will, eventually, lead to an identity-crisis.\nAfter Paul stated that God has giving you a \u201cnew self,\u201d he wrote: \u201cHere there is not Greek and Jew, circumcised and uncircumcised, barbarian, Scythian, slave, free; but Christ is all, and in all\u201d (Col. 3:10-11). These two verses highlight the importance of A Christ-Centered Identity.\nIt\u2019s beyond question that every Christian needs to grow into a greater Christ-centered identity. Therefore, I encourage you to join the book launch of \u201cA Christ-Centered Identity: Discovering Your God-Given Identity in His Son.\u201d You\u2019ll walk through the entire book in 6 weeks with only 3 minutes each day.\nYou can find out more and sign up at www.thegloryofchrist.com/christ-centered-identity. The launch starts on January 1st. It will certainly be worth 3 minutes of your time each day.\nP.S. Get your copy of Battling Sexual Temptations and Sins by clicking right here.",

        "raw_content": "Branding, Internet Marketing, Internet Media, Social Marketing, Social Media\nWe have worked with every type of client. This includes those that like to have a tight grip on everything that is distributed, and prefer to be involved in the creation of every piece of marketing that is published\u2014approving and editing piece after piece of content, requesting to have final approval of each blog post, banner ad, and tweet. And we have also worked with clients who give us the general idea and then hand over the reigns and say, \u201cHave at it.\u201d\nWe like to work with every client at their comfort level for control, since we understand that our work reflects not only the brand that we are creating social media content for, but also the individuals within each business who are responsible for working with us. If we do a good job, these individuals look good. We like when that happens.\nWhen we start working as social media partners with a client who prefers a lot of control over what content is posted, we have noticed that often, after a while, they will let go of their tight grip a bit. We will get a good feel for the brand\u2019s appropriate voice and topics of conversation, and the client will trust our judgement and knowledge of what will work for them. This not only frees up the time of the individuals responsible for us so they can work on other important responsibilities, but it often allows for more creative social media content and conversations. In other words, when the web marketing team is allowed to be creative and spontaneous, beautiful things can happen.\nAs an example of our work, take Sherman Hospital\u2019s Movember and Stache Yourself campaign. In 2011, for Prostate Cancer Awareness month in November, we ran a mustache contest on Facebook, asking men to grow mustaches, take a picture, and then pictures were voted on by Facebook fans. This was all in honor of men\u2019s health, and all related content (including blog posts about famous TV mustaches, etc.), reminded men to get their prostate checked. This year, because the client is the type to allow freedom and creativity, we have added a \u201cStache Yourself\u201d campaign, where people can send in a picture of themselves and we will give them a custom photo-shopped mustache to use as a profile picture on social networking sites. This sort of fun marketing likely wouldn\u2019t make it through the filter if it had to be approved by layers of authority, and even if it did, the lead time approvals required wouldn\u2019t have allowed this addition to the campaign to happen.\nConsider this example: @Oreo, who has 57,000 Twitter followers, tweeted \u201cEver bring your own Oreo cookies to the move theater?\u201d and Shane Adams, the social media manager of @AMCTheatres, could have ignored this post. Or if he had to report to his superiors for approval, he may not even have given the post thought. Or if he had to report to legal, a response would have taken too long. Instead, in 8 minutes, he crafted one of the best RTs by a brand ever and let it fly:\nWithin a day, this 3 word reply had over 1,000 RTs. Their Twitter feed has grown by 13,000 followers since the reply and now has 149,000 followers. Oreo responded again with, Fair enough, @AMCTheatres, but don\u2019t hate the player, hate the game. To which @AMCTheatres crafted another silly response:\nThe lesson? Have fun with your brand\u2019s social media where it makes sense. But the larger lesson comes from Shane Adams\u2019s blog regarding how he was able to come up with this brilliant piece of marketing:\n\u201c\u2026Successes like this are not purely the result of being clever. Being given the latitude to react and respond is critical for a social media group within a brand. Trust matters. The trust that we have been given is an invaluable asset in instances like this. And I will continue to live up to that trust\u2026why wouldn\u2019t I? I am a representative of the brand (a brand that I am proud of), so why would I do anything that would harm the brand?\u201d\nAnd the same is true of us, when we\u2019re acting as your marketing agency. We care about creating good work and a good image for you, because we know everything we put out reflects on us as well. If you let us, we will take good care of you and your brand. So have as much control as you would like, but also keep in mind that great trust can equal great creativity.\nAMC and OreoAMC and oreo TwitterAMC Oreo Twitter exchangemovemberSherman movemberSherman mustache contestsocial media approvalssocial media controlstache yourself",

        "title": "Projecting NBA Draft Prospects: Mikal Bridges | The Sports Daily",
        "raw_content": "There is no good reason that Mikal Bridges should be available at No. 10 overall in this summer\u2019s NBA Draft. Even in a class as deep as this one, Bridges could easily wind up being a top-five player from it. His athleticism is almost indescribable. Earlier in the season, he brought the house down against Gonzaga at Madison Square Garden with a spectacular drive and smash followed by a chase-down block immediately thereafter. Even if Bridges doesn\u2019t improve his ball-handling or shot creation skills much, he\u2019s a dream prospect along the wing. Mikal\u2019s magnificent athleticism is reminiscent of Rodney Carney, the 16th overall pick in 2006. Listed at 6-7, 205 lbs. Carney was a freak athlete for Memphis during his college days. He never put it all together at the NBA level, but he did dunk on Dwyane Wade.\nBridges combines the size and athletic profile of Carney with a sweet shooting stroke and well-rounded two-way abilities, a-la fellow former Villanova Wildcat wing Kerry Kittles. The former eighth overall pick (1996) could also get after it in the post offensively, something Bridges has worked hard to add to his repertoire. Double K is a forgotten man from those Nets clubs that made the finals in consecutive campaigns (2002, 2003). And you can count Kittles among those who believe Bridges will be better than him.\nThe baseline for Bridges is probably akin to Robert Covington, Philadelphia\u2019s third-best player (despite all the boos he hears at home). Covington and Bridges sport devastating length defensively and do all the little things, so even when shots aren\u2019t falling they typically still make a positive impact.\nCovington will finish an amazing alley-oop every now and then. Still, his most athletic accomplishments are typically reserved for the defensive end. He has gotten better at putting the ball on the floor and making plays, but RoCo prefers to catch and launch from beyond the arc. Bridges projects as a similar, elite 3-and-D wing. Mikal\u2019s ball-handling isn\u2019t as bad as Covington\u2019s either. Bridges will need to fill out his frame in order to stop bigger wings like Covington does. However, the potential for Bridges to be an even better defender than Covington, who is one of the best in the league, is undeniable. The fact of the matter is that for as capable as Covington is physically, Bridges makes him look like a borderline non-athlete in a lot of ways. Bridges will fall asleep on a box out here and like almost every other young player under the sun, is prone to mental lapses on occasion, the former of which led to two put-back finishes for fellow projected lottery pick Zhaire Smith (of Texas Tech) during the Elite Eight. Regardless, Bridges generally shows good attention to detail, and he was seen acknowledging his fault on those aforementioned plays. The first step towards fixing something is admitting you have a problem. Based on his continued improvement under Jay Wright, Bridges projects as a consummate professional willing and able to make improvements in the areas he needs to.\nPity the rest of the NBA if Mikal Bridges somehow falls into Philadelphia\u2019s lap at No. 10 overall (via the Lakers). There\u2019s not a single team in the association that Bridges couldn\u2019t help if he joined them tomorrow. Even if there are some wing rotations that he wouldn\u2019t crack as a starter on day one, he\u2019d still be one of the first men off the bench. Bridges is a guy who should be able to cover at least four positions, and he could have enough length, leaping ability and awareness to operate as the 5 in short spurts if he can fill out his frame over the next few years. As one of the few wings projected to land in the lottery on draft day, it shouldn\u2019t be a surprise if Bridges is selected over at least one of the big-name big men slated for the top 10 this summer.\n2018 NBA Draft, Kerry Kittles, Mikal Bridges, Robert Covington, Rodney Carney, Villanova Wildcats, NBA, The Lottery Mafia\nTuesday\u2019s Viewing Picks",

        "raw_content": "Private Lending: Understanding Secured Versus Unsecured Promissory Notes\nby Marie F. Dayan | Aug 25, 2014 | property investment guide\nBefore embarking on the adventure of private lending, it is crucial that you have an accurate understanding of notes and security instruments, specifically deeds of trust and mortgages. In this article, we will give you the knowledge you need about these tools to confidently move forward with your first private loan transaction.\nSo what is a promissory note?\nA promissory note is a financial instrument that contains a written promise by one party (borrower) to pay another party (lender or note holder) a definite sum of money either on demand, within a certain number of installments, or at a specified future date.\nA promissory note typically contains all the terms pertaining to the indebtedness by the issuer or maker to the note\u2019s payee, such as the amount, interest rate, maturity date, date and place of issuance, and issuer\u2019s signature, and its payment can be secured by a deed of trust.\nThere are two types of promissory notes: secured and unsecured.\nFor example, let\u2019s say that Susan borrows $100,000 from Robert. To add an incentive to Robert for him to make the loan, Susan offers her house as security. This means that if Susan does not pay Robert back the $100,000 in full, Robert can seize Susan\u2019s house to get back the money he lent her. This is a secured promissory note.\nAn unsecured promissory note has nothing material to protect it. Simply put, if you lend money through an unsecured promissory note, you must be prepared and accept the risk that you may lose your investment.\nBy signing a secured promissory note, the borrower accepts the obligation to repay the debt, specifying:\nthe loan amount (principal)\nthe amount of and payment schedule\nthe due date or maturity date, by which the borrower agrees to repay the principal\nthe penalties imposed upon the borrower should the payments not be made in a timely fashion, or should the borrower repay all or some of the principal prior to the date it is due (also known as a prepayment penalty).\nAs a private lender, you are ONLY interested in secured loans against real estate.",

        "title": "The Second Law of Thermodynamics Does Not Prohibit a Decrease of Entropy in a Closed System",
        "raw_content": "One of the biggest misconceptions about the Second Law of Thermodynamics is that it prohibits a decrease of entropy in a closed system.\nIt doesn't. What it does prohibit, and here I am being loose with the meaning of the word \"prohibit\", is a large decrease of entropy in a closed system. (What do I mean by \"large\"? I'll get to that soon.)\nIt is this myth of absolute prohibition that underlies the persistence of the creationist second-law-of-thermodynamics argument against the theory of evolution. Until the defenders of evolution recognise that evolution does require the occurrence of entropy decreases within closed systems, and that the Second Law does not prohibit these decreases, this argument will not fade into the obscurity that it deserves.\nSo What Does the Second Law of Thermodynamics Really Say?\nThe big achievement of statistical mechanics is the unification of two different notions of entropy. The first notion is entropy as the integral of dQ/T for reversible processes, where Q represents heat energy and T is temperature. The second notion of entropy is the negative logarithm of a probability, i.e. -log P where P is the probability.\nTo properly reconcile these two notions of entropy, you have to introduce a constant, which is called Boltzmann's constant, named after Ludwig Boltzmann, who discovered the relationship between these two types of entropy. The two equations of entropy are:\n\\(dS \\geq \\frac{dQ}{T}\\) (with equality holding only for reversible processes)\n\\(S = -k log{P}\\) (where \\(k\\) is Boltzmann's constant)\nThe value of \\(k\\) is 1.3806505 \u00d7 10-23 Joules/degree Kelvin. One way to understand this constant is to realise that the only reason it isn't equal to 1 is because we chose the wrong unit for temperature. If we deem \\(k\\) to be equal to 1, then the unit of temperature becomes the unit of energy per bit (give or take a factor of loge2, because \"bits\" represent a logarithm base 2, and the standard definition of entropy uses a logarithm base of e).\nThe Second Law Before Boltzmann\nThe Second Law was known before Boltzmann, when it was stated entirely in terms of the thermodynamic definition of entropy. The probabilistic interpretation of entropy was unknown, and the size of entropy involved was always so great that the corresponding probability was so small as to be indistinguishable from zero. Thus the prohibition.\nBut now we do know the probabilistic interpretation, and we can state that a decrease in entropy (in a closed system) is not prohibited, but that the maximum probability of it occurring is the probability corresponding to the required entropy decrease.\nSo How Large is \"Large\"?\nWhat counts as a \"large\" entropy corresponds to whatever you wish to consider as an impossibly \"small\" probability. If we measure entropy in \"bits\" (i.e. log2), then 1 bit corresponds to a 50% probability (which isn't at all \"small\"), 10 bits corresponds to roughly 0.1% (\"smallish\") and 20 bits to one in a million (\"quite small\", but still not \"impossibly small\").\nOn a personal level, there are at most 4,000,000,000 seconds in your life, and if you observed a particular type of event once per second, you would probably never observe an outcome of that type of event which had a probability of 1/1,000,000,000,000, which corresponds to about 40 bits.\nIf we consider all the people in the world, that adds a factor of less than 8,000,000,000, corresponding to another 33 bits, i.e. 73 bits in total. If we consider events occuring 1023 times a second (the fastest timescale normally observed in particle physics), over 1010 years (the age of the universe) in positions spaced an atom width apart (about 10-9 metres) over the observable universe (of diameter about 1010 light years), then this gives a maximum number of observations of about:\n\\[10^{23} \\times 3 \\times 10^7 \\times 10^{10} \\times (10^9 \\times 3 \\times 10^8 \\times 3 \\times 10^7 \\times 10^{10})^3 = 3^7 \\times 10^{142} \\approx 2 \\times 10^{145}\\]\nThis corresponds to a little less than 500 bits. In other words, in the entire history of the observable universe, it is very unlikely that a spontaneous decrease of entropy of 500 bits has ever occurred within a closed system.\nFor comparison, consider a macroscopic thermodynamic system. A very simple example is that of 2 grams of hydrogen gas in a closed cylinder, which corresponds to about 22 litres at room temperature and pressure. Consider the entropy required to compress this cylinder to half its original volume. It is easy to calculate the required entropy decrease from first principles, because it is the probability that each molecule will be found to be in a chosen half of the original volume, i.e. 2-N where N is the number of molecules, which in this case is equal to Avogadro's number = 6.02 \u00d7 -23. In other words, 602,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 bits. Which is, as you may notice, way more than 500 bits. Even if we consider this problem with a volume which is one million times smaller in each direction (i.e. a cube about 1/3000 of a millimetre on each side, which is much smaller than you can see with the naked eye), we are still talking about 602,300 bits. And the corresponding probability of 2-602,000 is so unimaginably small as to be indistinguishable from \"it ain't going to happen\", and then some.\nIt follows that it is quite reasonable to be dogmatic about the impossibility of a macroscopic decrease in entropy in a closed system, even though it is incorrect to state that any decrease in entropy is impossible.\nGranville Sewell is a Professor of Mathematics at the University of Texas El Paso, and last year (2005) John Wiley and Sons, Inc. published the second edition of his textbook \"The Numerical Solution of Ordinary and Partial Differential Equations\". Towards the end of this textbook there are some appendices, and in particular there is an Appendix D, which is titled \"Can ANYTHING Happen in an Open System?\". Appendix D is a restatement of the infamous creationist Second-Law-of-Thermodynamics argument against evolution.\nOf course an appendix in a John Wiley and Sons, Inc. textbook written by a Professor of Mathematics sounds pretty impressive, and we might wonder what motivated John Wiley & Sons to allow such material into a textbook (it's too advanced for a school textbook, so there's nothing to be gained from trying to please American textbook censors etc.)\nAnyway, the appendix contains lots of equations, including the equation of heat diffusion. On page 2 of the appendix, after the equation numbered D.5, Sewell states:\nHence, in a closed system, entropy can never decrease.\nAnd he reiterates this statement and variations upon it on pages 3 and 4, as he makes his argument that evolution cannot occur, not even in an \"open\" system.\nBut if you have got this far through my article, you will already realise what the fallacy is: the assumption that the second law prevents any decrease in entropy in a closed system. Sewell's equations, with differentials and integrals, look impressive, but they all assume the macroscopic approximation: that any possible decrease in entropy being considered is \"large\" in the sense already described. The differential equation for heat diffusion assumes that random variations are so small relative to the volume being considered that they can be ignored. Whereas evolution by natural selection happens a few molecules at a time, often just one molecule at a time \u2013 when a DNA base gets replaced by another DNA base in a \"lucky\" (i.e. fitness-increasing) mutation. It's not surprising, if you make an argument based on differential equations which are derived in a manner that ignore random variations, that you will disprove the possibility of evolution by natural selection, whose basic mechanism is that of random variation. Unsurprising, but, unfortunately for the advancement of creationist \"science\", not very interesting.\nWhether Appendix D will survive into Edition 3 of the textbook is anybody's guess. Granville Sewell might not be embarrassed by it, but I think John Wiley & Sons should be.\nAnd for a fuller analysis of the thermodynamics of evolution by natural selection, you can read my article Evolution and the Second Law of Thermodynamics.",

You must be chuffed.\n\"It's been overwhelming. My hope was that audiences would like Rae and understand Rae and they totally have. It's not just been young girls and boys, it's been adults saying 'thank you' and that really is quite humbling. I just hope that the show helps people talk about some of the issues involved and helps people feel more comfortable with all these subjects.\n\"It is a big responsibility, but I also feel very honoured that people feel that they can say, 'that happened to me'. I feel like I've done my job as an actress if the emotions look real and people genuinely look past what I'm doing and feel that they have some sort of bond or association with me. (She most definitely did. - OP)\n\"I wouldn't have wanted people to see this and go, 'that's not what happens, that's not how I felt'. I just wanted it to be as truthful as I could make it and I hope there's more people - not just the ones who have spoke to me - who have found it useful. I hope people who have watched it don't feel alone and realise that they're not the only person with these problems.\"\nMy favourite scene in the series was when Rae unzipped out of the fat suit to Radiohead's 'Fake Plastic Trees'. Did you have a favourite scene or moment?\n\"The shower scene was probably one of the most important scenes for me. That was the first time that you actually saw Rae properly hurting.\n\"But that scene you talk about is incredible. It's gorgeously done. And the great thing about that scene is that it shows it's not just about size. It's about wanting to not be you. It's about becoming someone totally different.\n\"And I would like to confirm that I'm not actually me in that scene. A lot of people have asked, but it's not me that walks out of the fat suit. Ha. I hadn't actually seen that until it aired and I got a bit of a shock watching. It gave me a shock and it was very strange watching it for the first time. It's really moving seeing that for the first time.\"\nThe Britpop soundtrack to the series is brilliant. Do you think that has helped the show increase its appeal to older audiences?\n\"I think the music really helps. The music is brilliant and the era was brilliant, so I think people who recognise both are enjoying reminiscing. But it really is ageless as a show, my gran has been watching it and she loves it. I think the problems that the gang go through, you could put them in any era and they would still apply to everyone.\"\nWere you a Britpop fan?\n\"More than I realised. At the time I was all about the Spice Girls and nothing else was on my radar. But since we started filming the show I've been checking my iPod and I've realised that I have a lot of Oasis and Radiohead on there, I like the Eels; I think I was actually into quite cool music in secret in the '90s.\"\nI think I'm getting old because I found myself thinking, 'music isn't as good as it used to be'.\n\"It's not is it? Let's be old together. I'll just keep playing a teenager to make us both feel young.\"\nWhat telly inspired you as a young actress?\n\"I watch loads of telly. I love TV. Growing up, I really liked Victoria Wood and Julie Walters. I'm still a wee bit obsessed with Victoria Wood. Alison Steadman is someone I love and Claire Rushbrook. I was a huge fan of Claire's, so working with her on My Mad Fat Diary was a brilliant experience.\n\"Do you know Claire was in Spice World? I adored Spice World. I had one copy on VHS at home and one at my gran's. That tape has been watched literally thousands of times.\n\"Old-school people like Kathy Burke as well. I used to love anything that I wasn't supposed to watch. I better not get in trouble for this, but I also used to watch The Young Ones. At an age when I really shouldn't have been watching The Young Ones. My uncle who was really young owned it all and used to let me watch it.\"\nI have to confess that I've never seen Spice World.\n\"You've never watched Spice World? Never in your whole life?\"\nI avoided it in the '90s because I thought I was too cool for it...\n\"Avoid it? Too cool for the Spice Girls? I can't believe you just told me that. I'm going to have to get you a DVD somehow. You have to see it! You have to! I cannot believe you haven't seen Spice World? I'm in deep shock.\"\nWhat TV gets you reaching for the remote?\n\"I'm not very good with sci-fi things. I can understand it, but I don't really watch it. I don't really do Star Trek or anything like that. But if it was the only thing on, I'd still watch it.\n\"I don't really like watching cricket on TV either. I wish they'd just play rounders instead. It's all too serious. I just want them to have some fun.\"\nThey should play rounders in the Olympics.\n\"They should. They should because I'm really good at rounders. I'm a great catcher. I'm not doing the running around, but I'll catch. At school I was never allowed to hit, I was always the catch. You know in Harry Potter where they catch the snitch? That's like my catching the ball in rounders.\"\nIf you could be in any TV show, what would be your dream role?\n\"The honest answer? I know it sounds cheesy, but it would be My Mad Fat Diary. I've always wanted to play someone who was funny and sad and have me as the lead. I can't believe that I've got it in my very first role. It's my number one life ambition. Even after we finished filming I expected someone to come up and say, 'we've changed our minds' and for it to be over. I genuinely can't believe it.\n\"I'm so, so, so happy that I got to do it. And I still can't believe it. I still get the 'did it actually happen?' feeling.\"\nThe show has been advertised everywhere in papers and on buses. Have you found that strange?\n\"I think it's more weird for my family and friends. I just don't look at anything. Except buses. When you run for the bus and get on it, that's a bit awkward. I try to ignore everything else though. I think you can get carried away when people call you up and say, 'I've seen you in the paper'.\"\n02/20/13--12:55: Game of Thrones S2 Deleted Scenes - Varys & Littlefinger\n02/20/13--12:55: DC Comics has gay marriage storyline in the works for Batwoman!\nNews of Batwoman's lesbian marriage proposal was first announced Wednesday on Bleeding Cool. Rich Johnston reported that \"Batwoman\" #17 concludes with the heorine proposing to her girlfriend, Maggie Sawyer.\nBecause in Batwoman #17, published today, Kathy Kane, the Batwoman, DC\u2019s leading lesbian lady asks Maggie Sawyer, Captain Sawyer, her secret girlfriend to ... be her wife. No idea how well that\u2019s going to go down. And you have to read the build up to this \u2013 and the rather dangerous epilogue. There\u2019s no guarantee we\u2019re going to hear wedding bells. But I think that\u2019s a story. I\u2019ve been talking about how much I love this comic for some time, I think it\u2019s DC\u2019s best. Now I\u2019ve just been given another reason.\nAfter emerging victorious from a recent crusade, Kane reveals her identity to Sawyer. \"Marry me, Mags,\" she says, planting a kiss on Sawyer before the police captain can react.\nBatwoman artist J. H. Williams hinted that big things were in store for Wednesday's release.\n\"Batwoman is an important character, and a socially important one that has meaning that extends well beyond the printed pages of the world she lives in, reaching out into ours possibly affecting those who encounter her story,\"he wrote on his official website Tuesday.\n02/20/13--13:13: Hilary Mantel v Kate: a story of lazy journalism and raging hypocrisy\nDaring to discuss the way in which the media manipulates women is the real cause of this latest tabloid outrage\n(by Hadley Freeman)\nOh, Hilary Mantel \u2013 how foolish you have been! Sure, you might have won two Booker prizes and are generally agreed to be one of the greatest writers of the modern age; one so extraordinary you have battled out of the ghetto into which female writers are almost invariably penned, with the exception of JK Rowling and, now, you. But all that pales to nothing, Hils \u2013 nothing, I say! \u2013 next to your ignorance of the politics involved in women criticising women.\nTwo weeks ago, Mantel gave a lecture at the British Museum, organised by the London Review of Books. Not, one might have thought, an event ripe with potential for scandal. Nonetheless, scandal issued forth most biliously (if somewhat belatedly) when someone on Fleet Street noticed that Mantel's speech had been published on the LRB website six days ago and that it contained \u2013 clutch your handkerchiefs to your mouths, readers! \u2013 comments about Kate, the Duchess of Somethingorother. These comments, incidentally, made (with Mantel's characteristic subtlety and grace) the patently obvious points that Kate's entire raison d'\u00eatre now, in the eyes of the media and the royal family, is to be admired and to breed, just as Anne Boleyn's had been. She has been embraced by the royal family because she seems like the anti-Diana; one who is not interested in her own publicity but is instead depicted by the royal press machine as safe and devoted to her husband and duties.\nNone of these observations is new, although rarely have they been better couched. They also took up a total of four paragraphs in a 30-paragraph speech \u2013 less than one-seventh, in other words \u2013 that otherwise focused on Mantel's very perceptive observations of Henry VIII, the Queen and the nature of monarchy as a whole. But none of these can be illustrated with a photo of the eternally photogenic duchess and, more importantly, none can be souped up into some kind of non-existent squabble between two high-profile women (Boleyn being, famously if rather inconveniently, dead.) So it was Mantel's \"vicious, venomous\" and \"withering\"\"rants\" and \"attacks\" on the Duchess that made the front pages of today's Mail and Metro papers, as well as getting a prominent mention in the Independent and a somewhat smaller one in the Guardian. This kind of extrapolation is reminiscent of when a critic describes a film as \"astonishingly bad\" and the film poster then claims the critic described it as \"astonishing!\"\nDavid Cameron promptly took time out of his trip in India to confirm that he thought Mantel's comments were \"completely misguided and completely wrong\", proving he, too, couldn't be bothered to read her entire talk before putting in his tuppence(he also said it would be \"wrong\" for Great Britain to apologise for the Amritsar massacre in India, so he's two for two in his quest to talk complete and utter bullshit), and the result was that \"Hilary Mantel\" began to trend on Twitter yesterday, which really puts those silly Bookers into perspective, achievement-wise. That Mantel's speech was ultimately a call for restraint when covering the royals only adds irony to the ridiculous.\nIt is worth looking at what is going on here. Lazy journalism, clearly, and raging hypocrisy, obviously: what has any paper done with Kate for the past decade but use her as decorative page filler? Indeed, when the BBC covered Mantelgate (Mantelpiece?) it included lingering shots of the duchess's fair form while quoting in horror from Mantel's speech about the royal women existing to be admired. This is also a good example of how the Mail fights back when it feels it is being attacked. For if Mantel was attacking anyone in her talk, then her aim was clearly at the Mail with its obsessive, prurient fascination with Kate. To see the Mail gasping at Mantel's suggestion that the duchess is \"designed to breed\" when it has been on \"bump watch\" since she walked down the aisle is the Fleet Street reenactment of Captain Renault in Casablanca proclaiming himself to be \"shocked to find gambling is going on here\" while collecting his winnings. It then added helpfully that Mantel is \"infertile\" and \"dreams of being thin\". Yeah, no wonder she's jealous of our Kate, the fat childless cow.\nBut the liberal press has been arguably just as bad, with the Independent providing a kindly list, allowing readers to compare \"the author and the princess\", again emphasising Mantel's weight. The subject of women talking about women has become as fraught an issue for the left as it is for the right. The conservative press loves a good woman v woman \u2013 or \"author v princess\"\u2013 fight because it suggests that women are all hysterical girlies who can't be trusted with proper grownup issues because they'll start throwing tampons at one another. If, say, Martin Amis said anything vaguely similar to Mantel's comments about Kate, he would not have received anywhere near the same amount of publicity.\nOn the liberal side, one of the tenets of the fourth wave of feminism, which is just starting to crest, is that women should not criticise one another's life choices. Rather, every lifestyle, every fashion choice is acceptable because they all reflect a woman's freedom of choice, whether it's going out in one's underwear (Slutwalk) or, well, being a princess. This kind of open-ended tolerance is all well and good, except when it then results in people attacking another woman for expressing an opinion about an industry that exploits their own, as invariably happens when a woman discusses, say, Page 3 girls or strip clubs.\nMantel was discussing how the royal family and the media manipulate women; it is of little surprise that the media would attack her back. But this nonsense highlights how it is still, apparently, impossible to be a woman and put forth a measured opinion about one of your own without it being twisted into some kind of screed-ish, unsisterly attack. As Mantel has learnt to her cost today, it's not only royal women who are expected to stay quiet.\nI find it funny/sad that the Guardian chose to illustrate this article with a picture of Kate, which is exactly the kind of thing the author makes fun of. I also don't know about the feminism comments, eh... But I think it's important to set the record straight here because when the author says that a. Mantel's comments were attacking the media, not Kate, which is why she's being crucified by the tabloids right now, and b. a man would have gotten away with it, she's not wrong.\nMods, resubmitting this after reuploading the pictures, oops.\n02/20/13--13:17: First-Look Footage At Gabrielle Union As Mary Jane Paul In 'Being Mary Jane' + What To Expect\nIt's not much of a look at just 15 seconds, but it'll do for now I suppose. I'm sure a longer trailer for the Akils' Being Mary Jane BET original movie will surface soon.\nRecapping...\nBeing Mary Jane, the BET pilot movie from Mara Brock Akil and Salim Akil, the hit husband-and-wife duo, stars Gabrielle Union, Omari Hardwick, Tika Sumpter, BJ Britt, Lisa Vidal and Richard Roundtree, Margaret Avery, Richard Brooks, Stephen Bishop, Raven Goodwin, Latarsha Rose, Robinne Lee and Aaron Spears.\nIt's the first project under the mega-production deal the Akils signed with BET last year, and chronicles the work, social and family life of a successful African American career woman (Mary Jane Paul), an acclaimed host of a 24-hour national cable news network. As Mary Jane juggles her life, her work and her commitment to family, viewers follow how far she\u2019s willing to go to find those puzzle pieces that she, and society, insist are missing from her life as a single black female.\nIn a 2012 interview, after principal photography wrapped, Gabrielle Union had this to say about what we can expect from Being Mary Jane:\n\"Being Mary Jane\" is basically about a television host, who has her own show, and how she balances her life. Between wanting to talk about hard hitting news and other stories, she shuffles through her own personal morals. It\u2019s about her trying to stand up for what she believes in but also keeping her ratings. She also struggles with the idea of being raised with the same morals, values and opportunities, throughout her family and being the only one to make it. How does that change the family dynamic? Her family comes from the upper-middle class, but she is the only one out of her siblings that is doing well. Her lack of a love life and the poor choices that she has made are also explored.\nBeing Mary Jane premiered at the 16th Annual Urbanworld Film Festival presented by BET Networks, last fall. I wasn't able to attend the screening, but from what I heard from others who did, it's a winner.\nThere's no broadcast TV debut yet, but while we wait, here's a just-released 15-second promo to hold you over.\n02/20/13--13:17: Goldie Hawn & Kurt Russell Are Perfect Without Marriage\nHollywood partnerships are renowned for having a short shelf life. But romance is still clearly blooming for stars Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell after 30 years together.\nThe 67-year-old actress has been with her long-term partner since they were cast together in 1983's Swing Shift and the couple are so 'devoted' to one another they don't see how a legal document can strengthen their love.\nThe Private Benjamin star told Australia's Woman's Day magazine: '[We] have done just perfectly without marrying. I already feel devoted and isn't that what marriage is supposed to do?\n'So as long as my emotional state is in a state of devotion, honesty, caring and loving, then we're fine. We both have independent finances, we're both independently well-off.'\nGoldie - who has children Kate Hudson and Oliver Hudson with her ex-husband Bill Hudson and son Wyatt with Kurt - initially thought the age gap between the pair was too big after they first met during the filming of The One and Only, Genuine, Original Family Band in 1968 as they were both so young.\nHowever, the pair later found they couldn't stay away from one another and decided to take the risk and begin dating.\nShe recently recalled: 'I was 21 and he was 16 and I thought he was adorable but he was much too young. And then years later we met up again and I liked him and I remembered that I had liked him very much when I first met him.\n'But we both said we would never go out with another actor so it just shows you never can tell.\n\u2018We have raised our children brilliantly; they are beautiful people. We did a great job there and we didn't have to get married to do that.'\nThe loved up pair jetted in to LAX on Monday after a romantic trip away.\nKurt is set to get to work on two films this year, Bone Tomahawk and Sweet Spot.\n02/20/13--13:18: Lindsay Lohan Returns Borrowed $1,750 Designer Dress in Tatters\nShear madness? Lindsay Lohan wore a gorgeous, beaded, floor-sweeping gown by Theia to an amFAR event on Feb. 6 in NYC, but by the time she returned it, the dress was half its original length.\n\"She said that the dress had ripped [at a club after the fundraiser] -- she couldn't possibly wear it like that -- so her stylist friend went to the club bouncer and requested some scissors to repair the torn part of the dress,\" a source tells Us Weekly. \"But what bouncer has scissors?\"\n\"She turned it into a mullet! Only a fashiony person would do that! \" the source continues. \"She's out of control and behaving really badly.\"\nThe dress in question is actually the same one that fellow troubled star Charlie Sheen finagled for the 26-year-old actress. As revealed by Us Weekly, Sheen generously hooked up his Scary Movie 5 costar with the dress after personally putting in a call to celebrity stylist Phillip Bloch to outfit her for the glamorous AmFAR affair.\nHe even said he'd \"go halfsies\" with the actress to pay for the gown, an offer she did not accept: Lohan ended up borrowing the dress.\n02/21/13--11:50: ONTD's Favorite Extrovert Attends A Vanity Fair's Pre-Oscar Party Wearing An Origami Napkin\nJennifer Lawrence and Bradley Cooper attend the Vanity Fair Campaign Hollywood Pre-Oscars Celebration of their film Silver Linings Playbook on Wednesday (February 20) at the Glenholme School in Los Angeles.\nThe co-stars were joined by their fellow Oscar-nominated castmate Jacki Weaver, as well as Chris Tucker, at the Barneys New York and Weinstein Company hosted event.\nJennifer and Bradley are both nominated in the leading actor categories at this weekend\u2019s ceremony, while Jacki is nominated in the supporting category.\nFYI: Jennifer is wearing a Roland Mouret dress.\nMaking new friends: Jennifer and Bradley posed up with Barneys CEO Mark Lee at the event\nCo-stars: Chris Tucker, who plays Bradley's character Pat's institutionalised friend Danny in Silver Linings Playbook, was also at the event\n02/21/13--11:50: Josh Brolin and Diane Lane To Divorce\nAnother celebrity power couple bites the dust ...

Anyway, I just watched SLP and warmed up to BCoop, he can get my number anytime, anyday\n02/21/13--12:06: What's Next for the Best Actor and Actress Nominees\nThe busiest nominee has The Hangover Part III and The Place Beyond the Pines out this spring. Serena (with Jennifer Lawrence) is done, and he's about to shoot David O. Russell's next film opposite Jeremy Renner, Amy Adams and Christian Bale. Cooper has several projects in development at Warner Bros., including American Sniper, based on Navy SEAL Chris Kyle, who recently was killed at a gun range. A Cameron Crowe movie could shoot in the fall, followed by MRC's Bad Blood and Trouble, and he's attached to Legendary's Here There Be Monsters. But his reps say a rumored Lance Armstrong movie isn't real.\nHer one film in the can has morphed into two: The Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby: His and The Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby: Hers, now planned as separate movies. She also has signed on for the Downton Abbey-esque drama Miss Julie, in which she will play a daughter of the Anglo-Irish aristocracy who encourages her father's valet to seduce her.\nShe recently completed the period drama Serena opposite Cooper and is finishing The Hunger Games: Catching Fire before segueing in April to X-Men: Days of Future Past in Montreal.\nThe French actress, who turns 86 on Oscar Sunday, has received offers but hasn't picked a follow-up.\nThe 9-year-old co-stars with Michael Fassbender and Brad Pitt in Steve McQueen's Twelve Years a Slave and is being courted to star in Sony's Annie reboot.\nThe Aussie star has filmed a take on the Princess of Wales in Diana as well as the sexy Sundance hit Two Mothers and Sunlight Jr., in which she is pregnant and holding a minimum-wage job.\nHe's shot Her, directed by Spike Jonze, and Lowlife, a Weinstein Co. period drama with Marion Cotillard and Renner.

Washington is seeking a director for The Equalizer, Sony's adaptation of the '80s TV series, since Nicolas Winding Refn (Drive) dropped out. Rupert Wyatt has expressed interest.\nThe Wolverine opens July 26. He's shooting Prisoners, an Alcon thriller with Jake Gyllenhaal, then he'll reprise his mutant role in X-Men: Days of Future Past.\nNothing in the can or on the horizon. Take a job!\nBCoop is here to stay. I can see Naomi and Joaquin getting a nom next year too.\n02/21/13--12:07: Aubrey Plaza: Amy Poehler is a Violent Monster.\nInterview with David DeNicolo\nDo you have any comic heroines?\nGilda Radner. A lot of people from SNL like Ana Gastayer and Molly Shannon. I was a huge Seinfeld fan, and I loved anything that Julia Louis-Dreyfus did. I could go on forever.\nYour father's family is from Puerto Rico. Do you consider yourself Latina?\nYeah. I'm half. I definitely identify with that half. It's my dominant half.\nWhat do you think about typical depictions of Latinas in TV comedy?\nTypically there's a lot of big stereotypes. Which is what I like about April, because it's not her whole character. The typical big hothead like Sofia Vegara['s character] is funny but not the only thing that could be on TV.\nYour delivery is so deadpan. Do you ever worry that people don't see that you're joking?\nPeople now just assume I'm f'ing with them.\nYou have called Amy Poehler \"a violent monster who makes me cry every day on set.\"\nShe is one of the scariest people I've ever worked with. If I go to the craft table for a snack, she slaps it out of my hands! She doesn't let me eat food. She's always telling me I need to lose five pounds. She's a nightmare.\nSource: Allure March Issue p 72\n02/21/13--12:08: Lady Gaga Is The New Queen Of Pop\nRanking No. 6 on Celebuzz\u2019s Hollywood Power Index is the one and only Lady Gaga.\nJust days ago, we crowned the outrageous songstress the Queen of Pop \u2014 and for good reason. Take a look at the facts:\n- She is the only female artist to have two singles (\u201cJust Dance\u201d and \u201cPoker Face\u201d) sell more than 6 million copies.\n- She is the youngest artist to have two tours (The Monster Ball and The Born This Way Ball) rank among the 25 most successful tours of all time.\n- Since her debut in 2008, she has sold more albums and singles than Britney and Beyonc\u00e9 combined.\n- With nearly 34 million Twitter followers and more than 55 million Facebook fans, she has the biggest social media presence of the three artists.\nThough the star was recently injured, there\u2019s no stopping Gaga. The superstar may be out of commission temporarily \u2014 but there\u2019s a lot more on the horizon, including an upcoming documentary with the renowned Terry Richardson.\nView video on the subject @ Celebuzz\n02/21/13--12:18: Wesley Snipes' Horror/Western 'Gallowwalkers' Gets A Trailer\nGALLOWALKERS is the story of a mysterious gunman, Aman (Snipes), the son of a nun, who breaks her covenant with God to ensure his survival.

While at Newmarket, Ball and Cogan oversaw production and distribution of indie films like Memento, Donnie Darko, Whale Rider, Monster, and The Passion Of The Christ - all films that were both critical and commercial successes.\nThe company plans to distribute 4 - 5 films theatrically annually, in addition to its home market releases via its recently announced a multi-year US home entertainment distribution deal with Lionsgate.\nA brand-new release trailer has been released and it's embedded below:\nBlack lead in a horror Western? somebody pinch me.

Her screen debut has caused a major rift in the family. Now they all want their own turn in the spotlight.\n\u201cAll the kids are driving Brad and Angie crazy with ideas for movies they want to act in.\u201d\nAngelina has previously attempted to get son Maddox interested in acting by asking for him to appear in science fiction film Battling Boy, which is being produced by Brad\u2019s company.\nThe source said: \u201cAngie and Brad felt that the superhero project was the perfect first step for Maddox. They had hoped to begin filming in 2012, but it still doesn\u2019t have a start date.\n\u201cMaddox is exasperated at watching Vivienne getting a top-notch part first.\u201d\nWe're sure the kids aren't getting too worked up about it, after all look at the fabulous life they get to lead with their globe-trotting parents!\n02/21/13--12:46: Youtube sensation Emily Hartridge on why dogs are better than women\nJennifer Aniston once said she prefers dogs to men because they 'make better companions' and offer 'unconditional love'.\nThis week video blogger Emily Hartridge argues that four-legged friends are better than women too, in an online post that is sure to infuriate her army of female fans.\nThe controversial comic likes to cause a stir with her weekly diatribes and this provocative '10 reasons why' explores girls' most annoying habits from a man's point of view.\nAs well as comparing women and dogs as running partners ('Dogs never get tired, they are always right by your side and they always have so much energy') 28-year-old Emily explains that canines are a lot easier to live with generally as they don't spend their time hating their bodies, moaning about other girls and over analysing relationships.\nBut before her feminist fans get too upset Emily makes sure that we know she is simply poking fun at the differences between the sexes in her own wry way as she poses with a leash around her neck to illustrate reason number 10 ('It's legal to keep a dog chained up') ... at least, we hope she's joking.\n02/21/13--13:09: This Year's Oscar Bizarre Swag Bag: $120 Maple Syrup, Circus Training, and more\nThis year\u2019s Oscar losers shouldn\u2019t be too upset when Anne Hathaway and Daniel Day-Lewis waltz off with the coveted trophies. Turns out every one\u2019s a winner: They\u2019re all going home with copies of Leeza Gibbons\u2019s memoir.\nYes, the former talk show host and QVC maven\u2019s new book, Take 2: Your Guide to Happy Endings and New Beginnings, is among the increasingly strange contents that stock this year\u2019s Oscar swag bag.\nPresumptuously titled the \u201cEveryone Wins at the Oscars Nominee Gift Bag,\u201d the freebies going home with all of this year\u2019s nominees is valued at a whopping $45,000. Included are the glamorous luxuries one would presume Hollywood\u2019s A-list would covet: $10,000 trips to Australia, skincare products worth hundreds of dollars each, $625 private training sessions, and gourmet chocolates.\nAlso, there are condoms.\nMixed in with all of the high-end swag are a slew of utterly bizarre knick-knacks, services, and even cleaning products. Among the weirdest:\n-Take 2: Your Guide to Happy Endings and New Beginnings by Leeza Gibbons, a book about \u201cstarting over; taking inventory, and getting smarter, stronger, and sexier with no apologies, no regrets and no turning back.\u201d ($24.00)\n-A six-pack box of Naked brand condoms ($20.00)\n-Maple syrup, from Rouge Maple Gourmet Products ($120.00)\n-Portion-control dinnerware by Slimware: \u201cPortion consciousness is disguised in the design.\u201d $59.00\n-A Vampire Facelift, a cosmetic procedure that involves re-injecting gel-like substances from the patient\u2019s blood back into the skin of their face to treat wrinkles. ($5,000.00)\n-Tickets to the circus, to see \u201cNorth America\u2019s only all-kid troupe.\u201d ($400)\n-Hair ties. But they double as bracelets! ($80.00)\n-A lint roller by Gleener, called The Ultimate Fuzz Remover ($19.99)\n-Windex touch-up cleaner ($3.99)\nThat\u2019s not to mention the swanky sweatshirts, emblazoned with the Oscar logo, the contenders were all handed at this year\u2019s Nominees Luncheon.\nIn recent years, the Oscar nominees have had an evolving relationship with the swag bag. The goodie packages have been put together by marketing firm Distinctive Assets for 11 years. The opulence of the gifts is legendary, and it used to be that the presenters and performers at the ceremony also received them. They used to be worth upwards of $100,000, and were a major reason why celebrities jumped at the chance to open an envelope on the Oscar stage.\nBut in 2006, the IRS deemed the loot taxable, and suddenly the bags weren\u2019t so appealing. Many celebrities opted to donate their wares to charity, and the extravagance\u2014and value\u2014of the bags have gone down over the years. The days of six-figure\u2019s worth of swag are long gone. Last year\u2019s bag was worth $62,023.26, and this year\u2019s is down nearly $20,000 from that.\nIn other words, the bags have become more creative, to say the least. So at least when Sally Field loses Best Supporting Actress on Sunday night, she can at least take solace in the fact that she\u2019s saved herself a trip to Target for a new bottle of Windex.\nSuch a random bunch of things! What would you want from this year's Swag Bag?\n02/21/13--13:11: Season Two \u2018American Idol\u2019 Finalist, Trenyce, Is Back!\nYou may remember chocolate-toned songstress \u201cTrenyce\u201d from Season 2 of American Idol [she was 5th runner up]. Ten years later, the singer is still on her grind and ready for the world to get to know the real Trenyce and hear some new music. The American Idol finalist talked exclusively with CarltonJordan.com about her controversial exit from the show, her opinion on NIcki Minaj and Mariah Carey as judges, her love life, and her latest venture - Thriller Live - which is a musical concert dedicated to Michael Jackson on London\u2019s West End.\nCJ.COM: You were part of American Idol from it\u2019s beginning stages, what are your thoughts on the show now?\nTrenyce: My participation on the show was during the time they were still trying to figure out what they wanted from us, the show, and the judges. It was the first and second season that was considered the \u201ctrial\u201d runs. I specifically remember it being hard to get certain songs cleared because back in that time, no artist, producer or label took it seriously. It was considered \u201cthat popcorn show that was TRYING to be Star Search\u201d. Yeah, we took all of the bullets. LOL!\nCJ.COM: What were your most memorable experiences during your time on Idol? Who were your BFF\u2019s while taping?\nTrenyce: There were sooooo many! There was the day when we all moved into the house and we got packed into these vans and just started going up, and up, and up, the hills and we realized we were being taken to a Hollywood Hills mansion. We jumped out of the vans and ran up and down that house like kids in a candy store!\nNone of us had ever been inside a home that big! The pool was huge, you could see the entire city of LA from any window in the house and we all knew we were blessed to have such a privilege. We had a lot of moments. We shared a lot of our first experiences with each other, so the bond between us all will always be there. I love them all. They are my family for life. While taping I would say I was closest to Julia Demato and Kim Caldwell. We encouraged each other, had girl talks and kept each other in line. I was as if we were not in competition with each other at all\u2026we championed each other! And out of the guys, Ricky was my best friend! I could tell him anything and he was that sensitive soul I looked to. Such a sweetheart.\nRickey Smith, Kim Caldwell, and Julia Demato were Trenyce\u2019s BFF\u2019s during American Idol Season Two!\nCJ.COM: Do you feel the current Nicki Minaj and Mariah Carey beef distracts viewers from the core of the show this year?\nTrenyce: I think that the beef was something that should have been between those two women. They are both successful artists coming together to show the younger and less seasoned how to act, sing, and perform and it\u2019s like a married couple\u2026some fights are not meant for the kids to see. I also think that the viewers are now tuning in even more just to see what happens, simply because we live in a world now that loves a bit of chaos, drama and confrontation and if you can get a celeb to go off that\u2019s even better\u2026Personally, I don\u2019t think it was necessary to sensationalize. Let them have their \u201cmoments\u201d privately if there is something to work out.\nCJ.COM: A recent lawsuit was filed against 9 former American Idol contestants claiming AI is racist? Do you agree with any parts of their claims? Did you experience any of that while u were on?\nTrenyce: It saddened me to hear that really\u2026I was asked to be a part of it due to the way I was treated on the show but I couldn\u2019t lump myself with these contestants simply because their stories were not the same as mine.\nWhen you sign up for Idol, you have to give full disclosure and if they don\u2019t agree with your background then they could clearly let you go or choose not to have you appear on the show. I never feel like \u201cracism\u201d should never be put into an equation such as this, simply because I don\u2019t think you can prove it. If they just so happen to pick 10 contestants, 5 are black and they all had a past then that is just coincidence, it\u2019s not \u201cracial\u201d. I don\u2019t for a second think that the claim should have been about race. And no I never experienced \u201cracism\u201d. What I found weird or odd was once I didn\u2019t agree with signing the contract \u201cas is\u201d that my \u201cexpunged\u201d record from when I was a teenager was \u201cleaked\u201d to the public and my chances on the show were compromised as well as my career. I didn\u2019t get how my case was closed and then somehow came out on the show with mugshot included\u2026.\n\u2026I had made my mistake, paid dearly for it, and moved on\u2026even fully disclosing to the producers what happened even when I didn\u2019t really have to and even told them how I wanted to USE the situation in my story to help some others out there believe in second chances\u2026but, it was still used against me. I was very angry for years about that, simply because if I went back into the \u201creal world\u201d I would never work again based on the fact that you could google that image\u2026forget a background check! What I learned from it all is that, at some point\u2026we have to forgive ourselves! Whatever you did, accept it and move on. If I ever have the chance to sit down with Simon or Nigel again I would ask a few questions and say a few things but it would not be publicly\u2026An eye for an eye is not my style.\nCJ.COM: Throughout all the American Idol Seasons, who has been your male/female Idol crush?\nTrenyce: I can\u2019t say I\u2019ve had a crush on the idols\u2026but I actually had a crush on Ryan Seacrest when I first met him. I don\u2019t think I\u2019ve ever said that to anyone, but yeah, I thought he was a cutie, and he seemed genuinely invested in us our season. We used to sing R. Kelly\u2019s remix to Ignition every week during the results show taping with Ryan just to keep us calm and he knew all of the words\u2026that impressed me! LOL!\nCJ.COM: Are you still in contact with any of your former cast mates? If so, which ones?\nTrenyce: I am! We of course are busy and working and all but from time to time we still speak and write each other and Ruben and I skyped each other about 2wks ago. Clay contacted me the other day and said \u201cOk, it\u2019s time for a reunion and since you\u2019re the one half way across the globe I\u2019m starting with you!\u201d so there will be a reunion soon! They are my family for life.\nCJ.COM: Do people still recognize you from the show? What do they usually say to you?\nTrenyce: People do still recognize me and I am grateful for that. It always throws me off when they do, simply because it\u2019s been so long and I just don\u2019t expect it, but when it happens, it\u2019s great! I had a guy on the tube (underground) in London take pics and everything and I was like, \u201cWOW! even in London!?\u201d and he says he loved our season. It\u2019s still a humbling moment when it happens.\nCJ.COM: After leaving Idol, was there a point where you felt depressed or like you needed to change careers?\nTrenyce: Yes\u2026I hesitate to talk about it often\u2026but yes. There were times when I felt like I was being punished for mentioning anything about the contract to the other contestants, and until this day it has haunted me a bit. I wish I had never asked any questions and just signed it as is, and maybe Simon would have liked me more. My intention was never to come off too cocky or disingenuous, or disrespectful, but somehow I feel I may have. I felt depressed not because I\u2019d lost, but because I felt that I was labeled without a way to defend myself. People never knew what I was going through behind the scenes of the show\u2026meaning at home as well\u2026it was a very difficult time in my life to be doing a show, especially with millions of people watching. The depression and issues lasted a few years and then I decided to do something about it\u2026I had to stop feeling sorry for my situation. I auditioned more, I prayed harder, I worked even harder to be seen as a real performer and to be taken seriously, who was not just some \u201cdiva\u201d on a tv show but a respectable, team player, who would do what she had to do to stay active in this industry. It took a LOT of undoing for me but I think I have gotten to a place of growth and serenity\u2026and surrender. I had no control over that show or what became of it for me, but I have control over my future and I will never give up. The last thing I would like to do is have a chat with Simon as a grown woman now, just to bury a few things that I feel need to be. I will make it happen one day. But change careers\u2026.never. I was built for this. This is my plan A-Z!\nCJ.COM: If you could create a judging panel for Idol who would you put at the table?\nTrenyce: If I could make a panel it would be a rotating chair of former idols (ME), Queen Latifah because she has mastered every part of the business successfully so she knows what to look for as well as how to be that mentor that can not only make you a better singer/performer but a better brand. Jill Scott because as a singer/songwriter, poet and actress she strikes me as a person with an appreciation for all genres. Missy Elliott would be amazing because she is a singer/rapper and she has always come off as a motivator. Justin Timberlake would be a great judge because he takes his craft seriously but he\u2019s also funny and would be great for TV. He grew up in the \u201cMickey Mouse Club\u201d world so he gets it.\nCJ.COM: We lost one of the most treasured voices in music (Whitney Houston) As African American Female Vocalist what kind/if any role did Ms. Houston play in your life? Have u ever sung her in a talent show/performance?\nTrenyce: The death of Whitney Houston devastated me more than the death of Michael Jackson, simply because she was the reason I became a singer. I wanted to be her as a child. I thought she was not only gorgeous but she was regal and poised. Her voice gave me chills. I\u2019d never wanted to \u201cbe\u201d someone so much! I won every single talent show I ever entered by singing Whitney Houston. Out of all of the songs I would stay in my room and sing to my stuffed animals , hers was the one that my parents said my texture and tone matched the most.\nThey had no idea how much that meant to me. Her death made me angry a little\u2026that her legacy wouldn\u2019t end happily\u2026and not for her fans but for HER. That her mom would be left without a daughter, and her daughter left without a mom. And I also had the pleasure of singing \u201cI HAVE NOTHING\u201d on American Idol my season. I was the first to even DARE tackle her music. I wanted to sing \u201cI WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU\u201d instead because it was my signature song back home in Memphis, but Dolly Parton at the time, was not willing to give the show the rights to use it. Years later, it was sung and I was like \u201cWhat? They cleared it?\u2026Wow!\u201d Missed out on that.\nCJ.COM: Would you be interested in doing anymore Reality TV? If so, what kind? If not, why not?\nTrenyce: You know, I used to say \u201cNO!\u201d simply because I didn\u2019t like the way Idol portrayed me, but I can now say that it depends on the show. I am my own woman, and I actually have a lot more to say now than I did then, that\u2019s for sure. I hadn\u2019t lived really\u2026I was a baby. But if a network came to me I would consider it for sure. It would be nice to show who I really am instead of what people think they know. I think they would be surprised at how silly I am. I have friends on R&B Divas and I think they are portrayed almost exactly as they are. It would be a nice idea to see some of the idols in a life after sort of reality show.\nCJ.COM: You\u2019re currently touring in Europe on The Thriller Tour. How did you get involved in this tour? How has the experience been thus far? How does European living compare to the US/your home town?\nTrenyce: Well, I\u2019m actually currently sitting still on the West End version of the show right now\u2026but I do the tour from time to time as well, just to change the scenery and view different parts of the globe. I got involved in the project from Los Angeles. I was touring with Ain\u2019t Misbehavin when I first got the call from a casting agent and I declined it since was not yet done with the run, but when the offer came around again and it gave me the chance to go abroad (one thing that was certainly on my bucketlist)\u2026I couldn\u2019t turn it down. Plus, MJ had just passed and I felt like it would be great to tribute the Icon that was responsible for a part in making my dreams a reality for me from childhood.\nEuropean living is certainly different. I think in America we are taught at a young age that nothing beats a first place winner, you must get the \u201cgold star\u201d on your homework, you must have perfect attendance, and all while being polite\u2026at least in the south. So, I had to adjust to the rudeness as well as the persistence of \u201ctake a holiday\u201d when there is nothing wrong with you! lol\u2026In our minds we take a holiday when you are stressed, exhausted, and having a nervous breakdown which reminds you it\u2019s time to sit down for a moment, but here there is a bank holiday almost monthly and nothing is open! Another thing I had to adjust to was the weather and transportation\u2026I pray for a sunny day and would be rich if I counted how often it was gloomy and/or rainy and the tube (subway) is easy to get around on, thankfully but definitely not my first choice. But even with all of that\u2026\nLondon has a heartbeat like no other place I\u2019ve been, with a hint of NYC sprinkled all over it, its pulse is kept by the architecture, West End, and countless beautiful nooks that you have to get out and explore to find\u2026not to mention the fashion! Ahhh, it\u2019s the first thing I recognized being here\u2026How open and free people are with their fashion choices. Layers, colors, prints, bold accents!!! It all spells LONDON! I have learned to embrace everything that comes along with it.\nCJ.COM: What does 2013 have in store for Trenyce? What are your plans outside of music?\nTrenyce: 2013 will be a continuation of 2012, which I saw as one of the most rewarding years I\u2019ve had! I want to push harder, be greater, put all of my talents to use, and remind myself every day that I may not be where I thought I should be by now, but 2013 is for not giving up or giving in! My plans for outside of the industry is to create a brand of products that I have been researching for some time, so more details will follow soon. I will be celebrating my appearance in my first ever feature film starring Jim Carrey, Chloe Moretz, Morris Chestnut and Donald Faison in Kick Ass 2! I play the cheerleading coach and it was a great time with very sweet, focused people. I had the time of my life! And the best part was slapping Jim Carrey\u2019s ass while singing karoake at our wrap party! And hopefully more films and tv will follow!\nCJ.COM: A lot of people have only gotten a chance to hear you do beautiful covers. How would you describe your own style of music? What do you hope to bring to the industry?\nTrenyce: Aw, thank you. My own style is very retro funk and soul with a sprinkle of disco. I come from Memphis and we sing from our gut! It\u2019s something that I\u2019ve been raised on so it\u2019s in me. My voice has always been a bit heavier and soulful for my size and I tried to tone it down before while recording but now I\u2019m embracing every OCTAVE I can hit! I think people will be surprised at just how many directions my voice can comfortably go. I hope to bring ME to the industry! My personality, my work ethic, my sound, my way! I think everything has been done\u2026to me it\u2019s about authenticity with one\u2019s self. As long as you don\u2019t come off like a carbon copy, there\u2019s nothing wrong with being inspired by the greats! I just want to be a genuine artist who leaves her soul on the stage!\nCJ.COM: Is R&B dying or being revitalized? Who\u2019s leading the pack?\nTrenyce: I think that R&B is finding it\u2019s heartbeat again. I think it is on a \u201ccut time\u201d rhythm at the moment, but I am awaiting the time that it has a steady heartbeat again. We need it. We need to have a variety of music heard and appreciated. So, no need to dismiss or get rid of any other genre, but we can surely gain from adding more voices and styles to the pot. Who\u2019s leading the pack for me are: Dawn Richards, I just love her drive and ambition to be the best at any cost. To not give up, and her writing AND performances are just ON POINT! I have always been a fan of Brandy\u2026to me, she created the idea that a singer can be an actress and a brand in my generation. She still seems to have a heart of gold and counting her blessings as if it was her first time in the game. Miguel has now entered the scene bringing with him his own style and eclectic approach to R&B and I love it. There was a time when I was afraid R&B would become the new \u201cdisco\u201d but I am glad that there are those out there not willing to let it die.\nCJ.COM: Are you currently dating, married, or have children? If so, how does that effect your everyday life / career aspirations?\nTrenyce: I am not married. No children at the moment, but I am currently dating the most incredible guy ever! His name is Magnus and he\u2019s half Norwegian. I have never been a relationship girl simply because of what I do, I don\u2019t trust that easily but he was the first guy in a long time to get to know me as a woman and as a friend before nervously asking me to date him\u2026I mean, in this day and age what man ASKS?\nIt was the cutest thing ever, and poor guy was soooooo nervous! I had to say yes and we\u2019ve been happy together for the past 2yrs. I don\u2019t want to jinx it so I will just say that we take it one day at a time and we allow ourselves to be open, honest and free within the relationship. Never forgetting how we met. We still have date nights, we do sappy things like dance in the middle of a grocery store or mall if a slow song comes on, and just have a good time! We both cry when we walk into a store and somehow stumble over to the kids section. We have names picked out. We pray together\u2026He\u2019s my best friend! It\u2019s like out of a movie\u2026I moved 10,000 mi from home to meet the love of my life!\nSource: Carlton Jordan\n02/21/13--13:16: (half of) The 15 Best Nev/Max Moments on Catfish\n15.

        "raw_content": "33. A systematic observation of the aura\nJanuary 2002. My friend is concentrating on a particular person and is sending him energy. I see these half circles moving away from the front of her face in the formation shown in the sketch. They're \"flying\" in a geometric formation, at equal distances. It reminds me of the flights of birds. They're moving diagonally through the room and then disappear. Soon after, a new \"flight\" appears again, following the same route. As long as my concentration lasts, this continues.\nThe colour of the half circles is very dark mauve and has a blue outline. I notice that the colours of these forms are similar to the two dominant colours of my friend's aura, which I had seen originally. It seems that this happens when someone sends energy.\nI read in Bezant's and Leadbeater's book \"Thought-Forms\", (see images on the left and below): \"The (images) were the results of a systematic attempt to send helpful thoughts by the friend who has furnished us with the sketches. A definite time was given each day at a fixed hour.\nThe forms were in some cases unseen by the transmitter, but in all cases were perceived by the recipient, who immediately sent rough sketches of what was seen by the next post to the transmitter, who has kindly supplied the following notes regarding them: (...) In the coloured drawings enclosed the blue forms appeared to represent the more devotional element of the thought.\nThe yellow forms accompanied the endeavour to communicate intellectual fortitude, or mental strength and courage. The rosy pink appeared when the thought was blended with affectionate sympathy. (...) In this way many details can be checked and compared looking from opposing perspectives while the nature of the effect in communication offers yet another confirmation...\nThese few drawings give but a slight idea of the varied flower-like and geometric forms seen, but neither paint nor crayon seems capable of representing the glowing beauty of their living colours.\"\nI continue observing the aura and the confirmation of what I see.",

        "title": "[VIDEO] Book Review: The Art of Choosing, Redirect \u2014 Tony Hchaime",
        "raw_content": "[VIDEO] Book Review: The Art of Choosing, Redirect\nThe Art of Choosing, by Sheena Iyengar.\nRedirect, by Timothy D. Wilson.\nTHE ART OF CHOOSING (3/5)\nAs the name suggests, this book by renowned Stanford psychologist Sheena Iyengar discusses the concept of \"choice\".\nIt seeks to answer a number of questions about the topic, including: what drives our choices, what external factors influence our choices, how to marketers use such factors to influence our purchase habits. It also discusses the cultural differences relating to choice, and how this may have an impact on our daily lives as well as our careers, life decisions, and more.\nIn my mind, there are 2 key takeaways from this book:\n1- Fewer options lead to better and more effective choices: the author demonstrates how people in a supermarket are more likely to purchase a jar of jam when 6 are on display and more likely to walk away without purchasing when confronted with dozens of choices. Children are more likely to play with toys when there are 5 of them in the room vs. 20.\n2- Cultural background has a profound impact on choice: many Asian cultures prefer NOT to have certain choices and are content being \"told\" what to do. They feel uncomfortable when faced with having to make certain choices they did not grow up making. Western cultures by contrast thrive on freedom of choice.\nThese concepts have powerful and far-reaching implications, and would be useful in the worlds of marketing, business, politics, psychology, etc.\nHowever, I found the book to be extremely disjointed. I had a hard time \"following\" the book, as the author kept on jumping from one topic to another, then reverting back to the previous topic several chapters later.\nI would have scored this book higher had it been edited better. The concepts in the book are powerful and certainly of use to many. However the disjointed nature of the book and the difficulty in finding a thread to follow takes a lot away from the strength of the ideas being presented.\nNow that you know what the central premise of the book is (what I discussed in the review above), you may be satisfied with \"just knowing\". If you're keen on reading the author's (well-researched) arguments to support these concepts, then reading this book would certainly not be a waste of time.\nREDIRECT (2/5)\nThis book's author is a world renowned social psychologist who is an authority on modern social psychological problems (e.g. gang violence, teenage pregnancy, etc.).\nAfter framing the problems, the author advances a number of \"tools\" one can use to \"redirect\" the way an individual or groups of people \"think\" and therefore \"behave\".\nFor example, he presents the concept of \"Story Editing\", which, while powerful, is not a new concept: if your child does well on an exam and you tell him/her: \"you did well because you're smart\", you're not encouraging him/her to work hard, because there is nothing one can do about \"being smart\". On the flip-side, if you tell your child: \"you did well because you worked hard\", now the child is associating the result with something \"within his/her control\", and this leads to behavioral change.\nOther concepts presented including the \"fake it till you make it\" principle, writing things down to \"get them off your chest\", and the power of \"positive thought reinforced by positive behavior\".\nAll great concepts...\nThis was a difficult book to review. On the one hand, the concepts being presented are powerful, real, and with potentially far-reaching consequences. On the other, the author focuses almost exclusively on solving \"social problems\" using a variety of psychological and cognitive psychology tools.\nThis is not surprising as the author is first and foremost a \"social psychologist\". As such, framing the book around major challenges in the modern society (teenage pregnancy, gang violence, etc) does make quite a bit of sense.\nNevertheless, I found that the majority of the concepts in the book are far from original (I've come across most of them in other books) and fall somewhat short on practical applications: after all, if a parent is faced with an aggressive teenage child, I find it difficult for the parent to contend with applying the principles of this book as opposed to seeking the help of a trained psychologist.\nIf you happen to have an interest in social psychology, then have a read. However if you're focused on self-development and you're seeking tools and techniques to further develop your (and your loved ones') performance in \"life\", there are far better books out there (and which I've reviewed in the past).\nbooks, reading, leadership, entrepreneur, Tony Hchaime, system endurance, se perform, Success, psychology, behavioral psychology, The art of choosing, redirect\n3 actions which can completely turn ...",

        "raw_content": "Another advantage to international trading is that you can keep making money even when the domestic economy is not doing well. Many traders just start to lose money if the whole economy drops, trying to ride it out and hoping it gets better. In most businesses, though, hoping for the best is not really a good way to get ahead. This is certainly true for stocks. You need to be able to take your money to a foreign market that is on the rise. You can still make a profit even when times are hard, despite the fact that other traders are watching their funds deplete.\nOn the whole, it is good to at least investigate international trading and see if it looks like it is right for you. It is not for everyone. Some people enjoy domestic stocks and would not be able to do nearly as well if they branched out into the rest of the market. However, does it really hurt to check? You need to know that you have given yourself every possible chance to succeed in your career of trading on the stock market.",

        "title": "Copyright Matters: Imitation, Creativity and Authenticity in Contemporary Chinese Literature | MCLC Resource Center",
        "raw_content": "Copyright Matters: Imitation, Creativity and\nAuthenticity in Contemporary Chinese Literature\nBy Lena Henningsen\nReviewed by Krista van Fliet Hang\nLena Henningsen. Copyright Matters: Imitation, Creativity and Authenticity in Contemporary Chinese Literature. Intersentia / Berliner Wissenschafts-Verlag, 2010. 279 pp. ISBN: 978-94-0000-044-5 (paper).\nLena Henningsen\u2019s study of copyright and plagiarism provides a window into contemporary Chinese popular culture, informing her readers of the most current trends in commercial Chinese literature. This book combines literary analysis with sociological, legal, and economic data on the often decried problem of piracy in China, generating fresh readings of contemporary Chinese literary culture in the twenty-first century. Indeed, Henningsen\u2019s exploration into intellectual property, piracy, and creativity leads to a reassessment of what it means to compose literature.\nThe book is comprised of a prologue, introduction, five case studies, and conclusion. The author describes her methodology and the implications of her book mostly in the prologue, introduction, and conclusion. Three of the case studies are concerned with Chinese novelists publishing in the twenty-first century, one examines the Harry Potter phenomenon in China, and the final study discusses academic plagiarism in China. I will enter into a detailed discussion of the individual chapters below.\nThe study engages two seemingly contradictory themes, both of which center on issues of imitation and creativity in the contemporary Chinese publishing industry. Henningsen\u2019s first theme puts forth the argument that imitation and even some plagiarism can be productive tools for creative endeavors, leading to new versions of a popular text or new readings of contested symbols in the cultural landscape. In chapters one, three, and four, Henningsen discusses various ways in which imitation and/or plagiarism have indeed contributed to and helped produce creative works of art in contemporary Chinese literature. The second theme the book delves into is the increased attention to the importance of copyright in China. Chapters two and five marshal the pronouncements of published authors and academics to support the argument that, although China has a reputation for being a culture that flouts intellectual property rights, many leaders of the cultural field are in fact arguing for increased attention to the importance of copyright. Henningsen combines literary analysis, legal scholarship, and an extensive survey of the field of contemporary Chinese popular literature to analyze these two ostensibly opposed tendencies.\nThe Introduction, \u201cCopyright in China and \u2018the West\u2019: Textual Appropriation or Intertextuality?\u201d is an examination of creativity and the concept of the original work of art in Western and Chinese history. Henningsen here discusses the concepts of intertexutality, imitation, and authenticity, setting the stage for her analysis of Chinese popular fiction by arguing that while the western media often portray China as a \u201cnation of plagiarists, copying and selling everything available to them\u201d (13), in fact production of cultural objects in China, plagiarized texts included, is much more complex than it seems. By presenting historical data and analysis of the composition of art in premodern Chinese and Western culture, she questions the idea that creativity should be defined as a single individual creating a completely novel product, either in the West or in China. Her historical overview of the concepts of creativity and authenticity lays the foundation for her readings of Chinese novels; she argues that the traditional concept of literary imitation is one that provides much leeway for authors, either by condoning the culling of existing material for them to use in their own stories, or in giving them something to react against in their work.\nAfter providing historical context of imitation in Chinese aesthetics in the introduction, in her first case study Henningsen shows how one contemporary author engages traditional ideas in his artistic practice as a means of defending himself against charges of plagiarism. In chapter one, \u201cWhat is a Plagiarist? Guo Jingming\u2013Convicted Plagiarist,\u201d she presents the somewhat scandalous case involving the famous young author Guo Jingming. He gained national fame in 2003 with his first bestselling novel, a fantasy titled Magic City. His next novel, Never-Flowers in Never-Dream, was about a love triangle involving young people in Beijing, and had so many similarities to Zhuang Yu\u2019s novel Inner and Outer that she successfully sued him for plagiarism, being awarded 200,000 RMB (approximately $24,200 at the time of the verdict in 2003), which she got, and a public apology, which Guo managed to withhold. Since the novel was not a word-for-word theft, Henningsen performs a close comparative reading of the two novels, revealing structural, plot, and stylistic similarities strongly indicating that Guo Jingming must have lifted his story from Zhuang Yu\u2019s novel. Because both novels center on the exploits of young women in contemporary Beijing, Henningsen reads them as examples of the genre of what she calls \u201cbabe fiction,\u201d which other critics have translated less literally as the work of \u201cbeauty writers.\u201d Henningsen\u2019s discussion of the genre is informed by primary texts such as Shanghai Baby and Candy, but does not engage with other secondary scholarship in the genre. In this discussion Henningsen conjectures that, in his quest to write another bestseller, Guo Jingming \u201cmay have been looking for inspiration among extant texts\u201d (71). After the conclusion of the court case, Guo Jingming published his third novel, Rush to the Dead Summer, which Henningsen interprets as both an autobiographical defense against plagiarism and an artistic theory that uses the traditional Chinese concept of linmo (imitation), which she defines as, \u201ca technique by which an artist copies masterpieces in order to study and learn the technique applied in the respective pieces\u201d (35). Rush to the Dead Summer is about a painter who was wrongfully accused of plagiarism after he gave an interview in which he told a journalist he experimented with another artist\u2019s style. His remarks are then modified before being published, leading people to believe it was an admission of plagiarism. Henningsen then draws a connection between artists using linmo-type experimentation with other artists\u2019 styles as a method of refining their own work, and Guo Jingming\u2019s copying of Zhuang Yu\u2019s style in order to better grasp a literary genre with which he was not previously familiar. In this reading, Guo Jingming\u2019s obvious plagiarism is incorporated into an artistic theory of copying examples in order to refine one\u2019s own style. His creative changes to Zhuang Yu\u2019s novel, Henningsen avers, are seen as proof of the possibility for innovation in imitation.\nAlongside Guo Jingming, Han Han is one of the two most successful young authors of the \u201cpost \u201980s\u201d generation, so it is fitting that in her second chapter, \u201cTo Steal a Book Might Not Be an Elegant Offense: Han Han\u2013Victim of Plagiarism,\u201d Henningsen discusses Han Han\u2019s pronouncements against plagiarism and piracy as a counterexample to Guo. Much of Han Han\u2019s writing is autobiographical and is published with multiple prefaces that he composes. Henningsen argues that this is one way of blurring the lines between fact and fiction: readers are led to believe that the fictional character is Han Han himself, this position gaining authenticity via the prefaces. While, in the previous discussion, Henningsen read Guo Jingming\u2019s Rush to the Dead Summer as a manifestation of his linmo theory of creativity through imitation, she here argues that Han Han\u2019s insistence on authenticity and originality in his work is a function of his self-identification as an author. She reads a passage from his novel Speeding Along Like Early Youth, about the daily lives of two plagiarists, alongside one of his prefaces enjoining people not to use his name on works he did not compose, denouncing plagiarism and piracy. His story points out the futility of the endeavors of people who write false stories under famous names. Henningsen\u2019s careful analyses of the works of these two bestselling young authors help bring to light many important elements in our understanding of the Chinese publishing industry, literary-cultural scene, and the very future of Chinese literature, as both authors promise to remain important figures in Chinese culture\u2013Han Han with his blog and magazine, and Guo Jingming with his efforts to support the careers of other young authors.\nHenningsen\u2019s third case study centers on the work of an older intellectual, and the only work in her study that has been published in English translation. Jiang Rong\u2019s 2004 novel Wolf\u2019s Totem (Henningsen uses this title rather than that of the published translation, Wolf Totem) became a phenomenon in the Chinese publishing industry and in PRC literary culture; anybody who went into a bookstore in China in the mid-2000s can attest to the inumerable books with wolves on the cover\u2013Henningsen reproduces four of them on her own cover. This chapter helps the reader to understand the significance of the wolf trend in China. Rather than seeing the novel as creating the phenomenon, Henningsen reads Wolf\u2019s Totem alongside other wolf stories published in the twenty-first century, notablyRemembering Wolves (2000) by Jia Pingwa, and argues that Jiang Rong was tapping into a cultural trend already in progress. She goes on to read novels that seem to be imitations of Wolf\u2019s Totem, deciphering the symbol of the wolf and its ability to be used in many different forms\u2013from military adventures to self help guides\u2013concluding that the symbol of the wolf is multifarious \u2013\u201ccontestable and debatable\u201d (136)\u2013and thus can be deployed to serve a wide variety of creative agenda. The employment of wolf imagery for so many different purposes leads Henningsen to argue that what first seems to be simple imitation is in fact \u201ca highly efficient catalyst for creativity\u201d (136). She concludes that such cases of \u201cimitative creativity\u201d are essential for the progress of culture, a position that perhaps could have been further developed throughout her text.\nHer next chapter, \u201cThe Politics of Fakery: Harry Potter between Fake and Fan Fiction,\u201d moves to the imitation of foreign works, as she analyzes piracy and copyright infringement of the Harry Potter novels through the lens of fan fiction, which \u201crefers to fictional texts written by the fans of a popular series\u201d (162). This chapter discusses Harry Potter fan fiction in China and globally, arguing that these imitations are a form of apprenticeship for young authors; just as people praise the Harry Potter series for encouraging young people to read, the Harry Potter books, in Henningsen\u2019s appraisal, also encourage them to write. Henningsen refers to a number of different Chinese Harry Potter novels, differentiating between fake and fan fiction and identifying interesting references to Chinese culture that appear in the original Harry Potter franchise: Harry uses a magic wok, is a tourist in China, works with Chinese foreign students, etc. This theme was developed more fully in an earlier article. The differentiation between fake and fan fiction is important in the study primarily as it relates to international copyright law. Whereas fakes may be in violation of copyright, texts labeled \u201cfan fiction\u201d are more protected. Henningsen, who uses fake as a \u201cnon-normative term, relating to the creative recycling of existing material\u201d (162), is able to see value in both kinds of texts. In most cases of creative imitation, Henningsen asserts, authors are not simply lifting the plot, themes, and characters from the famous franchise; they are creatively adapting the novel and\u2013in the case of Harry Potter fan fiction\u2013adding elements [of Chinese culture] to enrich the story. Henningsen consequently argues for a new understanding of fan fiction and creativity, pointing out that it is quite difficult to produce a text that is similar enough to the original to attract its readers, yet different enough to avoid allegations of plagiarism.\nHenningsen\u2019s final chapter on plagiarism in academic writing addresses a topic that extends well beyond bestselling fiction. This chapter, titled, \u201cThe Work of Academic Writing in the Age of Digital Reproduction: Discussions of Academic Plagiarism on the Chinese Internet,\u201d is included in the study to show that copyright and original work are increasingly valued in Chinese society. The chapter pairs with chapter two, which focuses on Han Han\u2019s attention to piracy, to argue that there is a rising level of consciousness of intellectual property and copyright in China. She notes that many of the people involved in the debate on academic plagiarism remark that trends in academia can be seen as the \u201ccultural standards of society\u201d (199). Therefore, the increased consciousness of plagiarism in academia comes at a time in which the issue is recognized as having significance to the whole culture. Through an analysis of some of the internet debates surrounding these cases of academic plagiarism, she notes that more and more people are calling for academic standards and the elimination of corruption in academia. These authors even develop a \u201ctheory of plagiarism\u201d and work out sophisticated methods of proving plagiarism in academic work. Henningsen further notes that some academics who make strong public condemnations of plagiarism may have the ulterior motive of attracting readers to their websites.\nHenningsen\u2019s conclusion, \u201cCopyright Matters! Authenticity and Authority in Contemporary Chinese Writing,\u201d attempts to reconcile the two main arguments in the book\u2013that imitative writing can be highly creative and that authors are increasingly conscious of copyright\u2013by examining the issue through the concept of the author as an analytical category. She argues that although Roland Barthes once famously declared the death of the author, most authors in China still hold the concept of authorship in relatively high regard, and many of the characters in their fictional texts are in fact authors, giving pride of place to authorship. As she concludes: \u201cAfter all, even though The Author may have been declared irrelevant as a category for literary analysis and even though the masses of consumers are declared to be the leading cultural force, authors continue to write and they also continue to believe in the meaningfulness of such an undertaking\u2013and readers at least consume this message once they turn the pages of the respective books. Both the discourse about copyright and the writings of these authors attest to the fact that in contemporary China both The Author and the author are still quite alive\u201d (247). Henningsen is to be commended for exploring the author as an analytical concept in China, proposing a reading of Chinese literature distinct from the tenants of western literary criticism. At times, though, the distinction between the abstract category of The Author (which she capitalizes and italicizes to set the concept apart from actual practicing authors) and actual individual authors themselves seems to exhibit some slippage in her analysis. In the conclusion, individual authors are sometimes confused with \u201cthe abstract category of The Author,\u201d making it difficult to discern whether or not her argument is in fact a rethinking of the well-known Western iterations of \u201cthe death of the author [read The Author].\u201d\nThe interesting ideas that Henningsen raises on literature, creativity, and the meaning of the author deserve to be fleshed out, and she has provided readers with much fruit for analysis. One possible criticism of the book is that at times Henningsen uses multiple examples and complicated charts to make her arguments about plagiarism, but the conclusions she draws from these details are not always fully elucidated. A final complaint is that the book was poorly copyedited, and at times the spelling and usage errors become distracting. These criticisms aside, readers of Copyright Matters will learn much about the publishing industry and especially about popular fiction in contemporary China. The chapters contain abundant useful information on bestselling novels from the twenty-first century and give lively discussions of their themes and contents. Her employment of plagiarism and creativity as a lens through which to interpret bestselling novels is a unique, timely, and appropriate way to examine contemporary Chinese culture.\nKrista Van Fleit Hang",

They're also more likely to get sick and are at higher risk of being physical harmed. But every child, no matter where they are born, should have the opportunity to reach their full potential. That's why Unlimited Friends Association hardworking staff and volunteers fight world poverty at its roots.\nAn entertainment day was held to 11 families with their children, those who get used of the healthy home, and living environment project that implemented by the Unlimited Friends Association, and funded by the Islamic Relief Palestine.\nOn this Day, we saw the children having such a good time playing with our volunteers. It was heartwarming to witness them healthy and happy, to hear their stories, and to see that Unlimited Friends Association assistance has made a dramatic difference in their lives.",

        "raw_content": "You should spend about 40 minutes on this task. Write about the following topic:\nSome people say that online learning is the most effective and convenient way to learn. Others say that online learning will never be as effective as learning at a real school, in person.\nDiscuss both these views and give your own opinion.Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience. White at least 250 words.\nIt is true that online learning is a rapidly growing phenomenon around the world. It is also true that many people prefer to learn one-on-one with a \u2018real\u2019 person, in a real classroom. However for ease and convenience, online learning is an exceptional way for students to learn.\nThere are a couple of issues that online learning does not adequately satisfy. The biggest issue is that unlike a real classroom in an educational institution, there is often no \u2018real\u2019 teacher. If a student has a question or needs immediate feedback on a point, in most cases they are not able to get it. A big part of the learning process includes human interaction so the lack of a real, living teacher can be a negative for students.\nWhile there are a few disadvantages with online learning, there are many more advantages. Many people who want to study also have day jobs and schools are often open when they are working. Online learning solves this problem \u2013 students can study whenever they have time \u2013 study flexibility. Time wastage is another issue. Many hours each day are wasted when a student studies in a traditional school setting. Non-study activities like traveling to school, chatting to classmates throughout the day, and traveling home are time wasters. Another online study benefit is the pace of learning.\nStudents can learn without distractions at their own pace. This means that students can really focus on the course and,as a result, achieve better results.\nClearly, there are a number of very good benefits for students who choose to study online. No doubt this type of learning will increase in the coming years.\n\u4e0a\u4e00\u7bc7\uff1a\u8be6\u89e3\u96c5\u601d\u542c\u529b\u7684\u4e09\u5927\u7279\u70b9\n\u4e0b\u4e00\u7bc7\uff1a\u897f\u5f0f\u6559\u80b2\u7684\u8bef\u533a",

Such abundance I accept apparent in this country, such top moral values, humans of such caliber, that I do not anticipate we would anytime beat this country, unless we breach the actual courage of this nation, which is her airy and cultural heritage, and, therefore, I adduce that we alter her old and age-old apprenticeship system, her culture, for if the Indians anticipate that all that is adopted and English is acceptable and greater than their own, they will lose their self-esteem, their built-in self-culture and they will become what we ambition them, an absolutely bedevilled nation.\nYou have to be vigilant.

For a family to participate, it must have gross income of no more than 185 percent of the federal poverty level and be at nutritional risk. To simplify program administration, an applicant who already receives SNAP (formerly food stamps), Medicaid, or Temporary Assistance for Needy Families cash assistance is automatically considered income-eligible.\nExtensive research has found WIC to be a cost-effective investment that improves the nutrition and health of low-income families \u2014 leading to healthier infants, more nutritious diets and better health care for children, and subsequently to higher academic achievement for students. As a result of the research documenting WIC\u2019s effectiveness, Administrations and Congresses of both parties have provided sufficient funding since 1997 to ensure that WIC can serve all eligible low-income pregnant women, infants, and young children who apply for it.\nIn fiscal year 2015 (October 1, 2014 to September 30, 2015), WIC served about 8 million participants per month nationwide, including approximately 1,265,000 participants per month in California. In California, nearly 60% of infants born each year are eligible for WIC.\nCalifornia has 83 local WIC agencies, which can include county health departments, federally qualified health centers, non-profit agencies, and other types of organization such as universities. These agencies provide WIC services in more than 500 sites throughout California.\nCalifornia has more than 4,000 authorized vendors/grocers where WIC participants can redeem their food vouchers.\nWIC is a health and nutrition program for growing families. WIC helps families by providing nutrition education, breastfeeding support, vouchers for healthy foods, and referrals to healthcare and other community services.\nFind out if you qualify for WIC\nTo learn how to get WIC services, to change or re-schedule a visit, or if you have questions about your next WIC visit, please call: 805.981.5251 or Toll-Free (in Ventura County) 800.781.4449 option 3\nYou can also E-Mail or Text Message us at wic.program@ventura.org (standard text message rates may apply)\nFind a WIC local agency near you\nFor questions, concerns, complaints, and suggestions please contact us or complete this Comment Form\nSi tiene preguntas, preocupaci\u00f3n, quejas o sugerencias por favor p\u00f3ngase en contacto con nosotros o complete esta Forma de Sugerencias\n\"In accordance with Federal law and U.S. Department of Agriculture policy, this institution is prohibited from discriminating on the basis of race, color, national origin, sex, age, or disability.

        "raw_content": "Seven Questions for Rare Book Expert Rebecca Romney\nThe Bauman Rare Books manager and 'Pawn Stars' expert on sleuthing, Nevada collectibles and reaching a television audience\nSeven QuestionsOctober 14, 2014 at 2:46pmBy Cindi Reed\nWhat\u2019s a rare book dealer\u2019s day typically like?\nWe research for collectors. We serve as personal curators for rare book collections. It\u2019s much harder to find these books than to sell them. On top of that, we\u2019re very picky about condition. It\u2019s hard to find the perfect book. And it\u2019s very hard to find first editions. We have people who work full time traveling and looking at collections. I\u2019ll do a lot of that on the Web. If someone is interested in a specific book then we\u2019ll track it down. It\u2019s very nerdy sleuth-like. You\u2019re always looking for the next clue.\nWhat Nevada or Las Vegas books are collectible?\nBooks that deal with the Comstock Lode, mining certificates, things like that. A lot of Western exploration works that touch on Nevada can be important. One that\u2019s really significant is John C. Fremont\u2019s expedition. The map with the Fremont book is done by Charles Preuss, and it is the first map to have Las Vegas on it. What does very well [in Bauman\u2019s Las Vegas store] are the James Bond books by Ian Fleming\u2014Casino Royale, From Russia With Love, You Only Live Twice.\nYou interact with two disparate audiences: Upscale book buyers and Pawn Stars fans. How do you reach both groups?\n[Some] collectors are more well-versed in details; you can talk bibliographic details with them. But my job is to make this complex subject accessible. If you want a first-edition book but you don\u2019t know how collecting works, I\u2019m there to talk to. I\u2019m the expert who does all of that, so you don\u2019t have to drop your life. Frankly, I would not have a job if this were easy. \u2026 Either way, I\u2019m pretty much just teaching, and that\u2019s why I like Pawn Stars: There are people who love books and feel intimidated, and I want people to feel like they can learn about rare books. I want people to be excited about them. They\u2019re amazing, and I want to share them. If it\u2019s intimidating, it\u2019s going to be hard to share.\nHow do you have your rare book and read it, too?\nYou can actually read a lot of these books, but collecting books isn\u2019t really about reading them. Collecting is about deciding you want to take part in this grand purpose of preserving historical artifacts. Collectors are responsible for shepherding this historical artifact on to the next generation. We have books from 1598 here, from the 1400s. These books are going to ideally\u2014if they\u2019re taken care of\u2014be around generations longer than us.\nYou spoke out in a Facebook post a year ago against Internet trolls who were posting sexist comments. Has it improved?\nI haven\u2019t really seen it end. It doesn\u2019t matter what you say, people are still going to do it. When it\u2019s aggressive accusations and things about being a woman in the public sphere, it actually encourages me to stay active in the public sphere because I feel that\u2019s an attempt to get me not to be contributing. It is particularly difficult for young professional women to make their way, and you have to be unafraid to stand up for yourself. You have to be unafraid to deal with trolls. You have to be confident in what you do. \u2026 It\u2019s funny, I talk with [Pawn Stars boss] Rick Harrison and the other experts, and they\u2019ll mention that they have trolls, too. Then I\u2019ll show them an example of what I get anytime I post something, and their jaws will drop. They get things, but not with the same frequency and not with the same pointed nature. It\u2019s been a difficult adjustment. \u2026 My way of combating has been always to bring it back to the books.\nDo you have any plans to profit from your newfound fame\u2014perhaps by writing a book or opening your own bookstore?\nI don\u2019t have any plans to leave Bauman, because the resources it has to find books are above and beyond what you\u2019re going to find anywhere else. [Pawn Stars] was always done as advertising for my company. I was caught off guard by the personal attention. People say, \u201cOh, Rebecca, you\u2019re so great!\u201d \u201cNo, no, no, no, the books are great! I don\u2019t know why we\u2019re talking about me.\u201d I\u2019ve always diverted the attention. Writing a book [could] contribute to teaching people. It\u2019d have to fit in with my long-term priorities, which are to help people create collections that mean a lot to them.\nGot any book recommendations?\nBooks are incredibly personal. People will ask for recommendations, and my first question is, what kind of books do you like? I could have a favorite book, and it wouldn\u2019t speak to you at all. Don\u2019t be afraid to come in and talk to us or look at the books. Some of the books we have here, you\u2019re not going to see outside a museum. There\u2019s no admission. You don\u2019t have to be a collector. For me, it\u2019s all about talking with people who love books. That\u2019s why my job is great.\nWritten on October 14, 2014 by\nCindi Reed\nAs a Texas junior high student, Reed once despaired over a career aptitude test that determined her only ability was in the impractical realms of arts and entertainment.

        "raw_content": "If you are going to take a holiday in France, you simply have to spare a weekend to visit Paris to take in its beautiful architecture, art, delicious food, wine and cheese.\nParis is a very busy city, particularly around the Champs-\u00c9lys\u00e9es, but it\u2019s quite easy to get around thanks to its extensive underground metro system and the vast nu mber of taxis that dash around the city.\nWalking is a good and viable option and you can link in a fair few sites to see in a day if you plan your time well. A good starting point for any first time visitor is the Arc de Triomphe, a monument built by Napoleon at the height of its power to commemorate his militaryvictories around Europe. It is slap bang in the center of the city and you can also go into the monument and take in the Parisian views from the top.\nBut that is nothing compared to the Eiffel Tower, the quintessential French monument which was completed in 1889: you can go up to various levels. If you suffer from mobility problems, you can take the lift up, but if you are fit and healthy, you can also walk up the stairs. The views from the top, where you can dine or have a drink, are stunning but many people prefer to see it from the outside.\nYou can also get a very special view of it from the Trocadero, a beautiful square with light play on water jets which is only a few minutes walk away. Do be careful though, as there are many scammers and pick-pockets who prey on tourists.\nNo trip to Paris is complete without a visit to the Louvre Museum \u2013 it can take up to a full day. There are many more attractions such as the Bastille Square, and the Grande Arche in La Defense, but you should also set some time aside to just wander around and soak up the atmosphere.",

        "raw_content": "\u201cEducate and inform the whole mass of the people\u2026 They are the only sure reliance for the preservation of our liberty.\u201d \u2013 Thomas Jefferson\nFrom the founding of our nation, education was viewed as paramount to our success. Educating our citizens is how we pursue happiness, and we are right to provide a quality education opportunity for all of our children. But is the way we are doing it the best way? Have we learned anything from the results of our heading, and can we glean anything from the results of others? We have limited resources with which to work, it is what forces you and I to strive for the best answer, so I ask you, what do you think? If We the People were to, this very day, choose what our education system would be, would we choose the one we have?\nWe the People can do better than a state education system. Although education should be government funded and state regulated, I believe it should be administered by private enterprise. Government employees, given a universal teaching curriculum, chartered to use the majority of our limited resources to try to motivate our unmotivated, is no way for Us to reach our potential\u2026 in my opinion, there is a much better way.\nEveryone should have an opportunity to excel in this life and education is critical to do so. But not everyone is guaranteed to succeed. Such a thought runs counter to what America aspires to be. Children will be left behind if kids don\u2019t care to study or apply themselves, if parents don\u2019t encourage their schooling, or if ineffective teachers are allowed to stay in the school system due to tenure. A system that works under a monopoly loses to one allowed to innovate, one that must appeal to the consumer, one that strives to see if it can find a better way\u2026 and our education system is no different. We cannot, nor should we attempt to, try to overcome this fact.\nIn my opinion, our education system will continue to deteriorate until we re-apply the proper Vision for America. Dec 28, 2011 Huffington Post headlined \u201cU.S. Falls In World Education Rankings, Rated \u2018Average\u2019.\u201d But then it goes on to suggest that more money injected into our public system is the answer. No, that is a mis-diagnosis of the cause. The problem is not the amount of funding we inject into our public school system, it is the notion of a non-competitive government run school system and an ideology of \u201cNo Child Left Behind.\u201d\n\u201cThe problem is not that people are taxed too little, the problem is that government spends too much.\u201d \u2013 Ronald Reagan\nInstead, we should recognize that a public program with little to no competition which shifts focus to try to ensure none of our children \u201cfail,\u201d becomes a failing program that challenges few of our children to excel. Our education system should strive to bring the best out of everyone, and to do that, we should encourage private enterprise, charter schools, and public schools to compete, display their results, and allow guardians to decide where they will send their children.\nThis is my recommended course for our future Education \u2013 we replace the notion of \u201cNo Child Left Behind\u201d and the idea of government schooling with an education system that is publicly funded and private-industry driven. I propose universal Education Savings Accounts (ESAs) provided to guardians of all school-aged children. One failure of the year\u2019s standardized advancement exam will require the student and guardian to attend summer counseling aimed at changing their heading. Two consecutive failures of the year\u2019s standardized advancement exam will dis-enroll a child from the program and require the guardian to appeal for re-admission before receiving any further public funding. At this juncture, students and guardians should consider Trade schools or work skills training as a viable alternative to traditional education systems.\nWe the People should learn from the results of our Education system, change course, admit that not every child is destined for college, and maximize the return of our education tax dollars. Education Savings Accounts (ESAs) could be funded through current taxes and cost savings as government education programs disestablish and public schools transition to private ones. Private industry provides educational services and the government\u2019s role is only to:\n2. Distribute revenue to citizens via Education Savings Accounts.\n3. Determine ESA expendable services (qualifying schools, tutoring, etc).\nGuardians whose children passed the year\u2019s standardized advancement exam would receive another year\u2019s allotment into their child\u2019s ESA \u2014 this would allow Home schooling parents some well deserved compensation and recognition for their efforts, as well as encourage all of us to strive to find the best school at the cheapest price \u2013 to be good stewards of our tax dollars.\nThese are the principles that made our country great, and these are the principles to which we must return. America is much better served with an education system that rewards success in education and encourages competition than it is with a publicly funded and state run program that breeds inefficiency and is slow to adapt in our ever changing world. The world\u2019s private school statistics show this to be true, we need to simply muster the courage, strength, and discipline to usher in change.",

In Season 2, Trevor Belmont, last survivor of his house, is no longer alone, and he and his misfit comrades race to find a way to save humanity from extinction at the hands of the grief-maddened Dracula and his sinister vampire war council.\nWritten by Warren Ellis, who exec-produces alongside Adi Shankar, Fred Seibert and Kevin Kolde, the anime was a hit for Netflix when it premiered at the start of 2018.\n\u201cUltimately, Castlevania is a good romp that has been intelligently and lovingly produced by a cast and crew that seem to understand exactly what has made fans so passionate about the series in the first place,\u201d we wrote in our review of Season 1. \u201cEllis\u2019 writing captures the dark yet enticing world of Castlevania perfectly.\u201d\nSince then, the wait for the second batch of episodes has been long \u2013 but while it will be longer still, after a summer release date was initially teased by its creators, Netflix has now confirmed that Season 2 will return on Friday 26th October. Here\u2019s the first image released from Season 2:\nCastlevania Season 2 to release on Netflix this summer\nCastlevania will return to Netflix for Season 2 this summer.\nThe show, which is based on the classic video game series, is a dark medieval fantasy following the last surviving member of the disgraced Belmont clan, trying to save Eastern Europe from extinction at the hand of Dracula himself. The animated series is from Frederator Studios, a Wow! Unlimited Media company, and written by best-selling author and comic book icon Warren Ellis.\nThe only downside about the series? It lasted for just four episodes. The show proved successful enough, though, that on the same day as its premiere, Netflix confirmed that it had expanded its order for a second part to include more episodes.\n\u201cSeason 1, Part 1 is telling the story we originally showed up to tell 10 years [the project began as a feature film in 2007] . Part 2 is where I take more advantage of being on Netflix,\u201d said Ellis.\nNow, Ellis has announced that Part 2 will premiere this summer for eight more episodes.\n\u201cFAQ: people keep asking, so I guess word didn\u2019t get around?\u201d he asked. \u201cWe\u2019re coming back this summer, for eight episodes, from Netflix.\u201d\nWatch this space for a confirmed Season 2 release date.\nhttps://twitter.com/warrenellis/status/954460793814376448/photo/1\nNetflix renews Castlevania for an expanded Season 2\nNetflix has renewed Castlevania for a second season, within hours of its premiere.\nThe show, which is based on the classic video game series, is a dark medieval fantasy following the last surviving member of the disgraced Belmont clan, trying to save Eastern Europe from extinction at the hand of Dracula himself.\nThe animated series is from Frederator Studios, a Wow! Unlimited Media company, and written by best-selling author and comic book icon Warren Ellis. The show was announced earlier this year, with Netflix releasing a four-episode first season on Friday 7th July. The first four episodes were initially announced by Netflix as \u201cPart 1\u201d of a first season, with no word on when the second half would be released.\nOn the same day as their debut, though, the streaming giant confirmed that it has ordered additional episodes from exec producers Warren Ellis, Kevin Kolde, Fred Seibert and Adi Shankar.\n\u201cI keep thinking of it as two seasons,\u201d Ellis said in an interview with Paste Magazine this week, \u201cbut it\u2019s really just one, split into two unequal parts. I think we\u2019re allowed to say that? So I\u2019ve written what I think of as Season 2 already, which is where I move away from the source material somewhat, stretch my legs, and probably get a little eccentric in places. Season 1, Part 1 is telling the story we originally showed up to tell 10 years [the project began as a feature film in 2007] . Part 2 is where I take more advantage of being on Netflix.\u201d\nDeadline broke the news of the renewal, calling the next instalment a second season. Whether you think of it as Part 2 or Season 2, though, the one thing we know for certain is that we can expect even more Castlevania: the next run will consist of an expanded eight episodes.\nCastlevania: Season 1 is available on Netflix UK, as part of \u00a37.49 monthly subscription.\nNetflix\u2019s Castlevania series gets trailer and July release date\nAlmost as soon as it was first announced, we\u2019ve got a surprise trailer for Netflix\u2019s new Castlevania TV series.\nBeginning with a delightfully retro sequence of what Netflix would have been like on a NES, the animated series takes us to the darkness-ridden land of the computer game franchise, a land in need of a hero \u2013 and a hero, judging by the title, in need of vengeance.\nPart 1 of Castlevania will span four half-hour episodes, which will all be released on Friday 7th July. Here\u2019s your first look at the man who killed Dracula in action:\nNetflix, Adi Shankar and Warren Ellis are making a Castlevania TV series\nNetflix is making a Castlevania TV series.\nYes, the classic video game is heading to the small screen \u2013 and it\u2019s being adapted by none other than Warren Ellis.\nThe animated show will premiere the first half of its first season later this year, the streaming giant announced at a press event earlier this week.\nIn 2017, the streaming service will deliver \u201cthe biggest and most diverse slate in Netflix history\u201d, the company promised, with over 1,000 hours of original content on the way this year.\n\u201cWe aren\u2019t in the business of creating \u2018one size fits all\u2019 programming, or building slates to fill a finite number of hours of a programming grid,\u201d said Ted Sarandos, Chief Content Officer at Netflix. \u201cWe\u2019re catering to a dynamic world full of people with different tastes \u2013 and as a result, no two Netflix experiences are alike \u2013 we want to have something for everyone to enjoy.\u201d\nSomething that Castlevania fans can enjoy was buried deep the press release that accompanied the event, but with no further details given other than \u201cCastlevania Season 1, Part 1 coming to Netflix in 2017\u201d.\nSome detective work from Gizmodo highlighted some comments transcribed on Slashfilm from producer Adi Shankar (who made that unofficial Power Rangers short film in 2015), who told the Nick Animation podcast last year that he was working on a secret animation project.\n\u201cWe have a project right now that we\u2019re doing that needs to go unnamed, based on one of the most world-famous video games of the last 30 years, that we\u2019ve had in our shop for 12 years without being able to get it started,\u201d he said. \u201cBut there were great characters and a great story, and eventually we got it going.\u201d\nCanada\u2019s Globe and Mail then reported that comic book legend Warren Ellis will be penning the adaptation of the Konami franchise. The newspaper added that it will be produced by Wow Unlimited Media, a new company launched by Michael Hirsh, a veteran of the animated scene, whose work ranges from a 10-minute cartoon commissioned by George Lucas several decades ago to such hit shows as Babar, Care Bears and Max & Ruby.\nHirsh, who is the CEO of Wow, told the paper that the company aims to break new ground by focusing on digital platforms, content and merchandising, rather than old-school TV screens and ratings. Wow owns Frederator, an online provider of animation films, as seen on YouTube and elsewhere.\nNow, Shankar himself has confirmed the whole thing. He took to Facebook to issue a brief announcement:\n\u201cCastlevania is a Netflix Original Series with Season 1 launching in 2017 and Season 2 in 2018. Furthermore, I personally guarantee that it will end the streak and be the western world\u2019s first good video game adaptation.\u201d\nSo there you have it, folks: a Castlevania series is officially on the way to Netflix.\nAdi Shankar Castlevania Netflix Netflix UK Warren Ellis\nTrailer: Adam Sandler\u2019s Netflix stand-up special arrives this October...

        "title": "ETHIOPIA'S SACRED FORESTS ARE SHRINKING. CAN HE SAVE THEM?",
        "raw_content": "ETHIOPIA'S SACRED FORESTS ARE SHRINKING. CAN HE SAVE THEM? (waagacusub.net) Growing up in the South Gondar region of Ethiopia, Alemayehu Wassie went to church every Sunday. Sure, it\u2019s a familiar weekly ritual for Christians the world over, but Wassie\u2019s trip from home to pew was quite different from the sleepy morning drive, fueled by coffee and doughnuts, known to many Westerners. That\u2019s because Wassie, a member of the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church, would trail dust from the spent soil of the surrounding populated areas through an ancient and sacred forest to reach his parish.\nYou always pass through these forests appreciating nature, appreciating God\u2019s gift,\u201d Wassie says over shoddy cellphone service from Bahir Dar in northern Ethiopia. \"They are also burial sites, so they are the beginning of your life and also where you are going to end. Emotionally, when you go to these forests, you always feel your loved ones and your ancestry.\u201d Ancestry that could extend as far back as A.D. 34 in a country that\u2019s home to some of the world\u2019s first Christians \u2014 the earliest Ethiopian conversion is recorded in the Bible itself (Acts 8:26-27).\nRaised under the weight of that religious history, it was not until later in life that Wassie, now 46, discovered what he believes is even more significant \u2014 and more urgent \u2014 about Ethiopia\u2019s sacred forests: ecological conservation. Peppered throughout a landscape that\u2019s slowly been decimated by centuries of agricultural and urban development, these forests \u2014 numbering around 12,000 \u2014 act as natural barriers to continued erosion and a source of life-giving water and biodiversity. But they are facing the twin threats of continued encroachment and a younger population that\u2019s disconnected from the church and unmoved by the potential loss of these hallowed grounds (they once occupied 329,000 square miles \u2014 a figure that, as of 2016, had dropped to below 28,000).\nSince receiving his forestry degree from Alemaya University of Agriculture in 1992, Wassie has been working to save, restore and expand Ethiopia\u2019s rapidly shrinking church forests. He served as forestry expert at the Ethiopian Ministry of Natural Resources and worked with several nongovernmental organizations before receiving his Ph.D. in forest ecology and management at Wageningen University in the Netherlands. In 2008, Wassie teamed up with Margaret \"Canopy Meg\u201d Lowman, director of global initiatives and senior scientist for plant conservation at the California Academy of Sciences, to raise international awareness of the church forests. \"Dr. Wassie is a true pioneer in every sense of the word \u2014 one of a handful of scientists studying Ethiopian forests,\u201d Lowman tells OZY, calling him \"a leader in both religious and scientific circles.\u201d\nBefore human settlement reached Ethiopia nearly 200,000 years ago, forests filled an estimated 35 percent to 40 percent of the country. That number dropped to 16 percent by the 1950s, and sits at just 5 percent today. Satellite images confirm the data: Viewed from above, Ethiopia\u2019s overwhelmingly dusty surface is dotted with 3,500 verdant atolls of trees, at the center of which sit Orthodox churches. \"If you want to begin reforestation, you have to start with church forests,\u201d Wassie tells me. Called Debr or Geddam by locals, these forests are living symbols of the Garden of Eden and the bounty of God\u2019s gifts to man. They are places of worship, meditative retreats during religious festivals and burial sites. Some of Ethiopia\u2019s church forests, which range from 5 acres to 1,000 acres, are upwards of 1,500 years old.\nDeforestation in Ethiopia started in the 1950s with farmers felling trees for timber and cattle trampling and feeding on the seedlings, preventing regrowth. With an increasing (2.5 percent, according to the World Bank) and often famine-stricken population, 80 percent of which live in rural areas, ongoing pressure to turn over land for crops and livestock is intense. Furthermore, Wassie explains, the younger generations have little regard for the sacred nature of church forests. \"Partly because of globalization, mostly youngsters have come to violate some of the old-time traditions,\u201d he says, adding simply: \"They are becoming less religious.\u201d\nBut these forests, as Wassie\u2019s research attests, have a significance that goes beyond religion and cultural symbolism. They are islands of biodiversity, housing hundreds of plant, animal and microbial species that are vital to the ecological health of the country \u2014 and are under threat from encroaching agricultural initiatives. With dwindling pockets of natural landscape surrounded by farms and grazing lands, where does the wildlife seek shelter? \"It\u2019s only church forests,\u201d says Wassie. He and colleagues from Colby College, which runs a program in South Gondar researching the cultural, economic and ecological roles of church forests, have identified birds, mammals, reptiles, insects and microorganisms \u2014 including pollinator species that are crucial to supporting Ethiopia\u2019s agriculture. The trees themselves are key to inhibiting erosion and retaining water in the soil, while the forests are a constant source of freshwater streams by attracting rain clouds and guiding rainwater into rivers, lakes and the underground water table (75 percent of the Earth\u2019s freshwater supply comes from forests).\nWassie\u2019s strategy for saving Ethiopia\u2019s church forests is built on conservation, education and expansion. First, he wants to protect the remaining acreage by erecting stone walls around their perimeters to discourage locals from cutting down trees while also serving as demarcation lines for tracking reduction or growth. He then hopes to expand the forests by establishing \"corridors\u201d of seedlings between parishes, encouraging growth along these weblike networks.\nThe education piece centers on communicating the team\u2019s stark findings to the general public. \"We are taking satellite images from Google Earth and presenting them to church leaders to show how they are shrinking,\u201d Wassie says, who hopes these leaders will help galvanize parishioners around the need for conservation. To reach younger generations whose sensibilities are trending more global than religious, Wassie has created booklets for Sunday school students that bring to life the forests\u2019 importance beyond their spiritual value. \"Under Dr. Alemayehu\u2019s guidance, priests have openly discussed the ecological benefits church forests provide to surrounding communities and agro-ecosystems, the roles of the church community in degrading and protecting forests [and] the impacts of climate change,\u201d explains Travis W. Reynolds, an assistant professor of environmental studies at Colby College who has worked with Wassie in Ethiopia for the past five years, studying forest ecology and community forest management.\nBut how does one get a population to care about forest conservation when its main concern is where the next meal will come from, or whether they might be gunned down in a peaceful protest against an oppressive regime? Just last year, after two seasons without rain, 18 million Ethiopians were left in desperate need of food and water. In the period between November 2015 and July 2016, Ethiopian security forces cracked down on anti-government demonstrations, opening fire into crowds and killing 669 people. When I ask Eden Chane, an Ethiopian expat, about the church forests, she responds with a different question: \"Did you see the protests? They fired machine guns into a crowd of people. I cannot go back.\u201d Expecting Ethiopians to focus attention on the health of their forests when lives are at risk can feel unrealistic, if not delusional.\nWolbert G.C. Smidt, co-author of the book Discussing Conflict in Ethiopia, agrees that there is tension surrounding forest conservation: On the one side are sacred spaces, rich in natural biodiversity with a church at their center, and on the other side there\u2019s pressure to clear the land and make it arable. And although Smidt points to \"an amazing number of small-scale activities\u201d that have returned a measure of ecological stability to some villages, these efforts cannot make inroads in the broad sections of the country \u2014 \"especially many lowland regions, which are affected by increased migration from the highlands and urbanization,\u201d he says.\nEthiopian Orthodox Church forests are said by priests and parishioners to be necklaces of emerald green adorning their parishes. The canopy, so the legend goes, acts as a net to save prayers from getting lost to the wind. Through their work, Wassie and his colleagues are adding to this mythology, with parishioners now mobilizing to build protective walls to clothe their naked churches. It seems the centuries-old cultural history of sacred forests continues to evolve alongside changes in demographics, climate and social attitudes. But mythology is not enough to preserve these forests \u2014 except in the collective memory \u2014 and the loss will be dramatic, and permanent. \"If we lose them, we will lose the whole biodiversity they contain forever,\u201d Wassie intones gravely.\nAs we say our goodbyes over cellphone static, Wassie remains hopeful, invoking the forests\u2019 mythic past as a sign of their ability to endure: \"Church forests are the past and a library of history, and they\u2019re also our future, where we will begin to bring back what has been lost.\u201d The measure of what has been lost is substantial; it remains to be seen how much can be restored.\nSomalia:Will doctors save the life of President Galmudug after heart surgery\nWaagacusub.net -President of Galmudug regional state of Somalia Mr Abdikarim Hussein Guled is being hospitalized in a hospital in Hyderabad after heart surgery that took more than seven hours, according to our sources.

        "title": "Trauma's Ripple Effect - Self Care in a Supporting Role - West Kelowna Counselling",
        "raw_content": "Vicarious Trauma, Secondary Trauma, Compassion Fatigue\u2026 these are terms that describe the impact of another person\u2019s trauma on your nervous system. It can happen to any counsellor, care giver, or loved one that is impacted by the trauma and healing of another. When we think of trauma and PTSD we often think in terms of the victim. The types of therapies that are most effective, the different elements of physical, emotional, and mental support that they require. In formulating long term care plans for people that have suffered trauma, we often lose sight of the impact of that trauma on those around them. Even witnessing trauma can cause symptoms of PTSD, particularly in children. If your kids have trauma that impacts you even more as we often take that on in it\u2019s full context for them.\nThe impact of trauma is always a ripple effect from the victim outward. As their own care is focused upon there are family members, friends, and children that can each be affected individually as that person heals. One person\u2019s lifetime of trauma, or single event can cause such an extreme shift in their work, family life, relationships and friendships as they struggle to regain their own health and well being. The people closest to that person will ride that roller coaster with them. Kids pick up on the instability and strain, relationships can be damaged, friendships and professional relationships can be strained. When someone you love is in anguish, you feel it and so does everyone around them.\nWhether the victim has suffered physical trauma from a fall or car accident, medical condition or procedure, an assault, their healing will encompass both physical and mental health care for recovery. Often the physical body heals first and the emotional and mental impacts can take longer. As a support person to someone that has suffered trauma, patience will be your trademark, but you also need to make sure you are getting the help and support you need.\nSome important elements for your longevity in this journey with your loved one\u2026\n1. Self Care. Take time to nurture yourself. When much of your physical/mental/emotional energy is going outward to another person, make sure you are taking time to replenish yourself. Get adequate rest, nutrition, exercise. Take time to be alone. Find things that make you laugh. Do nice things for your body, mind and soul. Do this daily. It\u2019s not optional. You will have more compassion and support and love to give another person when you are filling yourself up from within to prevent depletion.\n2. Surround Yourself with Support. Make sure you have people close to you that you can talk to and spend time with. People that are positive and uplifting and have your best interests at heart. No room for toxic or negative people in your life right now. Keep connected with others. Often trauma is like a vacuum and everyone gets sucked into the vortex \u2013 you need to keep reaching out to combat this.\n3. Seek Your Own Professional Help. This is often minimized or seen as unnecessary but speaking with a trauma therapist yourself to help regulate your nervous system and move through the effects of your loved ones trauma can help you heal and strengthen. The victim will hopefully be doing the same, but your responsibility is to your own health and making sure you are able to come back to a baseline of health after trauma as well. This is invaluable work that will sustain you and shows your investment in your own health as priority. Particularly for parents whose children have suffered trauma \u2013 seeing a therapist is highly recommended.\n4. Be Realistic. Progress and healing is not linear. Not for your loved one, and not for you. There will be set backs and there will be changes. In all of you. There are some things in life that change us and change us forever. Good therapy can minimize the damage and help heal people on all levels but depending on the trauma or what was in a person\u2019s system before the trauma, dramatic changes in personality, behaviour, emotional regulation and physical health can be seen long after the traumatic event. This may feel like three steps forward and two steps back for a long time \u2013 just make sure you\u2019re moving in the right direction. Keep in mind that you are only responsible for your own healing, you cannot take on another person\u2019s recovery. Too many factors impact recovery for that to be your responsibility. Be honest with your disappointments and frustrations, you are allowed to be human and impacted throughout this journey.\n5. Set Boundaries. On your time, your emotional and energetic output. This is complicated and difficult and exhausting enough, if you don\u2019t set boundaries and limits on what you are able to manage or accept in this process you are setting yourself up for physical and mental burnout. You cannot go down with the ship. To maintain your own resiliency and health you will have to set boundaries, learn to say no, and accept where you have limits.\nBe patient. Be kind to yourself. Realize that in this journey with your loved one that the badge of honour you wear is an invisible one but that you are not invisible. You must make yourself \u2013 your health and happiness a priority in this journey to protect against getting lost in it. Trauma is big, it fills the room and can take over lives. In supporting others that have been traumatized you must protect and nourish your own sense of self and all areas of your health. You will be a better form of support if you are actively feeding your own health and resiliency. What you are giving out in supporting another human being\u2019s healing from trauma is profound, noble, and takes so much strength \u2013 it is honouring to your loved one. Just don\u2019t forget to honour yourself in the process.",

It was written by Thucydides, an Athenian historian who also happened to serve as an Athenian general during the war. His account of the conflict is widely considered to be a classic and regarded as one of the earliest scholarly works of history. The History is divided into eight books.\nAnalyses of the History generally occur in one of two camps.[1] On the one hand, some scholars view the work as an objective and scientific piece of history. The judgment of J. B. Bury reflects his traditional interpretation of the work: \"[The History is] severe in its detachment, written from a purely intellectual point of view, unencumbered with platitudes and moral judgments, cold and critical.\"[2]\nOn the other hand, in keeping with more recent interpretations that are associated with reader-response criticism, the History can be read as a piece of literature rather than an objective record of the historical events. This view is embodied in the words of W. R. Connor, who describes Thucydides as \"an artist who responds to, selects and skillfully arranges his material, and develops its symbolic and emotional potential.\"[3]\nHistorical method 1\nChronology 1.1\nSpeeches 1.2\nNeutrality 1.3\nRole of religion 1.4\nRationalization of myth 1.5\nSubject matter of the History 2\nMilitary technology 2.1\nEarth science 2.3\nSome difficulties of interpretation 3\nStrata of composition 3.1\nMethod of citation 5\nOutline of the work 7\nSecondary sources 11\nP. Oxy. 16, fragment of a 1st-century manuscript\nThucydides is considered to be one of the great \"fathers\" of Western history, thus making his methodology the subject of much analysis in area of historiography.\nThucydides is one of the first western historians to employ a strict standard of chronology, recording events by year, with each year consisting of the summer campaign season and a less active winter season. This method contrasts sharply with Herodotus' earlier work The Histories, which jumps around chronologically and makes frequent and roundabout excursions into seemingly unrelated areas and time periods, and has set the standard for historiographical rigor to this day.\nThucydides also makes extensive use of speeches in order to elaborate on the event in question. While the inclusion of long first-person speeches is somewhat alien to modern historical method, in the context of ancient Greek oral culture speeches are expected. These include addresses given to troops by their generals before battles and numerous political speeches, both by Athenian and Spartan leaders, as well as debates between various parties. Of the speeches, the most famous is the funeral oration of Pericles, which is found in Book Two. Thucydides undoubtedly heard some of these speeches himself while for others he relied on eyewitness accounts.\nThese speeches are suspect in the eyes of Classicists, however, inasmuch as it is not sure to what degree Thucydides altered these speeches in order to most clearly elucidate the crux of the argument presented. Some of the speeches are probably fabricated according to his expectations of, as he puts it, \"what was called for in each situation\" (1.22.2).[4]\nDespite being an Athenian and a participant in the conflict, Thucydides is often regarded as having written a generally unbiased account of the conflict with respect to the sides involved in it. In the introduction to the piece he states, \"my work is not a piece of writing designed to meet the taste of an immediate public, but was done to last for ever\" (1.22.4).\nThere are scholars, however, who doubt this. Ernst Badian, for example has argued that Thucydides has a strong pro-Athenian bias.[5] In keeping with this sort of doubt, other scholars claim that Thucydides had an ulterior motive in his Histories, specifically to create an epic comparable to those of the past such as the works of Homer, and that this led him to create a nonobjective dualism favoring the Athenians.[6] The work does display a clear bias against certain people involved in the conflict, such as Cleon.[7]\nThe gods play no active role in Thucydides' work. This is very different from Herodotus, who frequently mentions the role of the gods, as well as a nearly ubiquitous divine presence in the centuries-earlier poems of Homer. Instead, Thucydides regards history as being caused by the choices and actions of human beings.\nDespite the absence of actions of the gods, religion and piety play critical roles in the actions of the Spartans, and to a lesser degree, the Athenians.[8] Thus natural occurrences such as earthquake and eclipses were viewed as religiously significant (1.23.3; 7.50.4)[9]\nIt has been further argued that Thucydides attributes the existence of the gods entirely to the needs of political life. The gods are portrayed as existing only in the minds of men. Religion as such reveals itself in the History to be not simply one type of social behavior among others, but what permeates the whole of social existence, permitting the emergence of justice.[10]\nRationalization of myth\nDespite the absence of the gods from Thucydides' work, he still draws heavily from the Greek mythos, especially from Homer, whose works are prominent in Greek mythology. Thucydides references Homer frequently as a source of information, but always adds a distancing clause, such as \u201cHomer shows this, if that is sufficient evidence,\u201d and \u201cassuming we should trust Homer's poetry in this case too.\u201d [11]\nHowever, despite Thucydides' lack of trust in information that was not experienced firsthand, such as Homer's, he does use the poet's epics to infer facts about the Trojan War. For instance, while Thucydides considered the number of over 1,000 Greek ships sent to Troy to be a poetic exaggeration, he uses Homer's catalog of ships to determine the approximate number of Greek soldiers who were present. Later, Thucydides claims that since Homer never makes reference to a united Greek state, the pre-Hellenic nations must have been so disjointed that they could not organize properly to launch an effective campaign. In fact, Thucydides claims that Troy could have been conquered in half the time had the Greek leaders allocated resources properly and not sent a large portion of the army on raids for supplies.\nThucydides makes sure to inform his reader that he, unlike Homer, is not a poet prone to exaggeration, but instead a historian, whose stories may not give \"momentary pleasure,\" but \"whose intended meaning will be challenged by the truth of the facts.\" [12] By distancing himself from the storytelling practices of Homer, Thucydides makes it clear that while he does consider mythology and epics to be evidence, these works cannot be given much credibility, and that it takes an impartial and empirically minded historian, such as himself, to accurately portray the events of the past.\nSubject matter of the History\nThe first book of the History, after a brief review of early Greek history and some programmatic historiographical commentary, seeks to explain why the Peloponnesian War broke out when it did and what its causes were. Except for a few short excursuses (notably 6.54-58 on the Tyrant Slayers), the remainder of the History (books 2 through 8) rigidly maintains its focus on the Peloponnesian War to the exclusion of other topics.\nWhile the History concentrates on the military aspects of the Peloponnesian War, it uses these events as a medium to suggest several other themes closely related to the war. It specifically discusses in several passages the socially and culturally degenerative effects of war on humanity itself. The History is especially concerned with the lawlessness and atrocities committed by Greek citizens to each other in the name of one side or another in the war. Some events depicted in the History, such as the Melian dialogue, describe early instances of realpolitik or power politics.\nThe History is preoccupied with the interplay of justice and power in political and military decision-making. Thucydides' presentation is decidedly ambivalent on this theme. While the History seems to suggest that considerations of justice are artificial and necessarily capitulate to power, it sometimes also shows a significant degree of empathy with those who suffer from the exigencies of the war.\nFor the most part, the History does not discuss topics such as the art and architecture of Greece.\nIllustration of a Greek Trireme.\nThe History emphasizes the development of military technologies. In several passages (1.14.3, 2.75-76, 7.36.2-3), Thucydides describes in detail various innovations in the conduct of siegeworks or naval warfare. The History places great importance upon naval supremacy, arguing that a modern empire is impossible without a strong navy. He states that this is the result of the development of piracy and coastal settlements in earlier Greece.\nImportant in this regard was the development, at the beginning of the classical period (c. 500 BC), of the trireme, the supreme naval ship for the next several hundred years. In his emphasis on sea power, Thucydides resembles the modern naval theorist Alfred Thayer Mahan, whose influential work The Influence of Sea Power upon History helped set in motion the naval arms race prior to World War I.\nThe History explains that the primary cause of the Peloponnesian War was the \"growth in power of Athens, and the alarm which this inspired in Sparta\" (1.23.6). Thucydides traces the development of Athenian power through the growth of the Athenian empire in the years 479 BC to 432 BC in book one of the History (1.89-118). The legitimacy of the empire is explored in several passages, notably in the speech at 1.73-78, where an anonymous Athenian legation defends the empire on the grounds that it was freely given to the Athenians and not taken by force. The subsequent expansion of the empire is defended by these Athenians, \"...the nature of the case first compelled us to advance our empire to its present height; fear being our principal motive, though honor and interest came afterward.\" (1.75.3)\nThe Athenians also argue that, \"We have done nothing extraordinary, nothing contrary to human nature in accepting an empire when it was offered to us and then in refusing to give it up.\" (1.76) They claim that anyone in their position would act in the same fashion. The Spartans represent a more traditional, circumspect, and less expansive power. Indeed, the Athenians are nearly destroyed by their greatest act of imperial overreach, the Sicilian expedition, described in books six and seven of the History.\nThucydides correlates, in his description of the 426 BC Malian Gulf tsunami, for the first time in the history of natural science, quakes and waves in terms of cause and effect.[13][14]\nSome difficulties of interpretation\nThucydides' History is extraordinarily dense and complex. His particular ancient Greek prose is also very challenging, grammatically, syntactically, and semantically. This has resulted in much scholarly disagreement on a cluster of issues of interpretation; as is common among much ancient Greek language.\nStrata of composition\nIt is commonly thought that Thucydides died while still working on the History, since it ends in mid-sentence and only goes up to 410 BC, leaving six years of war uncovered. Furthermore, there is a great deal of uncertainty whether he intended to revise the sections he had already written. Since there appear to be some contradictions between certain passages in the History, it has been proposed that the conflicting passages were written at different times and that Thucydides' opinion on the conflicting matter had changed. Those who argue that the History can be divided into various levels of composition are usually called \"analysts\" and those who argue that the passages must be made to reconcile with one another are called \"unitarians\". This conflict is called the \"strata of composition\" debate.\nThe History is notoriously reticent about its sources. Thucydides almost never names his informants and alludes to competing versions of events only a handful of times. This is in marked contrast to Herodotus, who frequently mentions multiple versions of his stories and allows the reader to decide which is true. Instead, Thucydides strives to create the impression of a seamless and irrefutable narrative. Nevertheless, scholars have sought to detect the sources behind the various sections of the History. For example, the narrative after Thucydides' exile (4.108ff.) seems to focus on Peloponnesian events more than the first four books, leading to the conclusion that he had greater access to Peloponnesian sources at that time.\nFrequently, Thucydides appears to assert knowledge of the thoughts of individuals at key moments in the narrative. Scholars have asserted that these moments are evidence that he interviewed these individuals after the fact. However, the evidence of the Sicilian Expedition argues against this, since Thucydides discusses the thoughts of the generals who died there and whom he would have had no chance to interview. Instead it seems likely that, as with the speeches, Thucydides is looser than previously thought in inferring the thoughts, feelings, and motives of principal characters in his History from their actions, as well as his own sense of what would be appropriate or likely in such a situation.\nThucydides' History has been enormously influential in both ancient and modern historiography. It was embraced by the author's contemporaries and immediate successors with enthusiasm; indeed, many authors sought to complete the unfinished history. For example, Xenophon wrote his Hellenica as a continuation of Thucydides' work, beginning at the exact moment that Thucydides' History leaves off. His work, however, is generally considered inferior in style and accuracy compared with Thucydides'. In later antiquity, Thucydides' reputation suffered somewhat, with critics such as Dionysius of Halicarnassus rejecting the History as turgid and excessively austere. Lucian also parodies it (among others) in his satire The True Histories. Woodrow Wilson read the History on his voyage across the Atlantic to the Versailles Peace Conference.[15]\nMost critics writing about the History, including this article, use a standard format to direct readers to passages in the text: book.chapter.section. For example, the notation that Pericles' last speech runs from 2.60.1 to 2.64.6, this means that it can be found in the second book, from the sixtieth chapter through the sixty-fourth. Most modern editions and translations of the History include the chapter numbers in the margins.\nTo the most important manuscripts belong: Codex Parisinus suppl. Gr. 255, Codex Vaticanus 126, Codex Laurentianus LXIX.2, Codex Palatinus 252, Codex Monacensis 430, Codex Monacensis 228, Codex Britannicus II,727, and other.[16]\nGrenfell and Hunt discovered in

Chris Cook and Keely Rushmore of SA Law advise on how to deal with sensitive issues concerning older workers, such as planning ahead and addressing performance issues.\nFollowing the abolition of the default retirement age back in April 2011, dismissals based on an employee\u2019s age could amount to direct age discrimination. This change was certainly good news for the individual, however employers were faced with the uncertainty of when older employers may elect to prompt their retirement. This uncertainty impacts an organisation\u2019s long-term business plans as to when employees will be leaving the organisation and when they will need to be replaced.\nHow and when employers can set a retirement age\nIn removing the default retirement age, the Government wanted no worker to be deprived of the opportunity to work simply because of their age. Although in most circumstances it will not be objectively justifiable for employers to apply their own retirement age instead, employers do have the opportunity to produce evidence to show that setting a retirement age in certain jobs within their organisation is justifiable. They would need to show:\nthat they are trying to achieve a legitimate aim; and\nthat setting a retirement age is a proportionate way of achieving that aim.\nMore on managing older workers\nProving this can be difficult to demonstrate and it will be necessary to provide evidence if challenged; assertions alone will not be enough. Reasons for employers to provide their own retirement age could include:\nUpholding health and safety standards. Employers would need to demonstrate that the risk relates to a specific activity and is at a high level.\nEnabling workforce planning. Employers would need to demonstrate that business aims cannot be properly achieved without advance information about future vacancies.\nTips on how to hold conversations with older workers\nMany employers have concerns about speaking to any individual employee directly about retirement, as they worry that they might accidentally discriminate against employees due to their age. However, in order to facilitate succession planning and fulfilling business plans within organisations, such conversations are necessary. Employers should consider the following:\nAvoid using words and phrases such as age, old, young, Generation X and Y or baby boomers. Although these words seem harmless and might well be used in with completely innocent intentions, it is easy for them to be used as evidence to support an age discrimination claim should an employee feel they have been unlawfully dismissed.\nAsk open questions that prompt discussions of where employees see themselves in the next few years and how they view their contribution to the organisation. This may encourage employees themselves to bring up the topic of retirement. You are then entitled to discuss leaving dates and any working arrangements leading up to it.\nHold these discussions as part of an employee\u2019s formal appraisal, or alternatively, as part of a group meeting so as not to single out any one employee. In the meeting, explain the retirement options that are available and highlight that, as an organisation, you would need as much notice as possible from employees planning to retire.\nConsider whether or not your managers, and anyone involved in holding these discussions, are well prepared in doing so. In order to be effective and avoid potential claims of age discrimination, it is vital that managers are trained and informed on the best approach to take.\nIt is important that any discussions be recorded and held for as long as there is a business need for doing so. It would be good practice to give a copy of the meeting notes to the employee.\nPerformance issues when managing older workers\nIt is important not to assume that employees\u2019 performance will deteriorate as they get older. If you do have concerns about the performance of an older employee, you should treat them in the same way that you would treat any other employee whose performance was giving you concern. Failure to address any poor performance with an employee because there is an expectation they will retire soon may be discriminatory.\nIt is also discriminatory to be harder on older workers than others, for example, because you would like to encourage them to leave or because you are making assumptions about their capacity to improve. You should establish a reason for poor performance, agree with the employee what training and development would help them meet the business\u2019 expectations, and set a reasonable timetable for improvement.\nIf, by an agreed time, the employee\u2019s performance has not improved sufficiently and you have followed the company\u2019s poor performance procedure in full, you may then decide to dismiss the employee on capability grounds. Any performance management system you have should be the same for all your employees.\nIt is vital to have regular conversations with your workforce. Keeping communications free and open will allow employees to be aware of your expectations of them, their performance levels and future plans of both the organisation and the individual. By making individuals aware of the retirement options and opportunities available to them, they will be encouraged to come to you to discuss their plans in relation to their retirement.\nSource: Top tips on avoiding discrimination when managing older workers",

        "raw_content": "With Bestselling Author & Teacher\nNew Live Audio Training Starts\nDo you wish you could better express your true self in your actions, in your relationships, and in your everyday life?\nDo you feel like the real you, with all its remarkable gifts, is trapped behind a veil of mystery that may forever be beyond your reach?\nDo you feel weighed down by challenging circumstances or the craziness in our culture right now?\nWriting can be your pathway to freedom \u2014 freedom to be authentic, express your truth, and live into your highest gifts.\nMake no mistake \u2014 you were born with original gifts, and an authentic voice waiting to be heard. The ancient Romans called this genius, referring to a guiding spirit whose sole purpose was to lead a person to their inborn potential.\nThis genius has nothing to do with I.Q. or external achievement; rather, it points to the unique, never-seen-before brilliance with which every soul is endowed. Regardless of the work you do \u2014 artist or housewife, bus driver or entrepreneur \u2014 this creative originality is within YOU.\nOnce you learn to tap into this personal source, and access the power of what\u2019s inside you \u2014 the talents, passions, dreams, and vision that are yours alone \u2014 your life will transform.\nHow do you do this? Through a spiritual practice that may surprise you \u2014 writing.\nBestselling author Mark Matousek has taught students worldwide the discipline of writing as a spiritual practice \u2014 in a way that\u2019s profoundly liberating and very enjoyable.\nA regular writing practice can not only guide you in the journey of healing the past, overcoming adversity in the present, and discovering your personal gifts, it can unleash your creative spirit while cultivating an expansive mind, open heart, and authentic relationships.\nSafely exploring your raw emotions, uncensored thoughts, and wildest ideas through a writing practice can be profoundly liberating. Gaining a deeper understanding of who you truly are, loving aspects of yourself you once found unlovable, and healing past hurts can lead to spiritual awakening.\nOpen to an Exciting New World of Power and Potential\nIn Writing to Reclaim Your Essential Gifts, Mark will be your expert guide on a step-by-step exploration of your inner landscape, and the world of possibilities that lie dormant inside you.\nUsing targeted questions and self-inquiry through writing, you\u2019ll explore all of the inner voices, doubts, and fears that might be holding back your untapped possibilities and discover how to truly listen to your inner guidance, whose wisdom transcends limitations and fear, and opens you to a new world of freedom, inspiration, and courage.\nYour journal can actually serve as your trusted confidante, Zen master, and psychotherapist \u2014 all rolled into one.\nOn the other hand, if you don\u2019t know how to foster a truly transformative approach to writing, you can get stuck in unresolved wounds, emotional entanglements, and negative thinking.\nThe difference between writing to vent and writing as a path of liberation lies in treating writing as an actual spiritual practice \u2014 one that is every bit as powerful as meditation, prayer, or yoga. In fact, writing can help free areas of yourself that most conventional spiritual practices never touch.\nWhen you start to view writing as an opportunity for deep inquiry \u2014 exploring who you are, your soul\u2019s purpose, and your unconscious blocks \u2014 is when you begin to tap into your true power.\nThe words that flow onto the page are portals into your greatest depths \u2014 the wellspring of true love, creativity, and awakening.\nWhen you know how to follow this \u201cgenius\u201d voice, you discover that the treasure is already within you \u2014 and that what you have to offer the world is a gift beyond measure.\nIt\u2019s not enough to simply write anything that pops into your head...\nUnstructured writing can reinforce that which binds you, rather than help you discover that which frees you.\nA truly liberating practice uses writing as a way to probe your depths \u2014 chipping away at the ego, exploring buried feelings, and accessing your vulnerability. As a result, you\u2019re able to tap into Spirit, expand your inner resources of love and compassion, and connect to the genius within. This is at the core of resilience and your ability to overcome adversity.\nA transformative writing practice takes skillful inquiry, as well as the kind of discipline we usually associate with other practices dedicated to spiritual growth. And as you venture into areas that generate resistance, it takes courage to continue moving forward instead of sticking to comfortable, more familiar terrain.\nThe rewards of a deep and powerful writing practice are immense \u2014 providing you with a way to access and examine revelatory insights, powerful truths, and your innermost Self.\nMore than anything, you\u2019ll discover your unique genius, a path for manifesting it in the world, and how to transform any blocks into breakthroughs.\nWhen you discover how to realize the transformative power of writing, you:\nGain a powerful tool for your spiritual path \u2014 one that\u2019s always available to you\nUncover and heal some of the traumas, limited stories, or patterns that have been subtly holding you back\nAccess your truth so deeply that it opens doorways to your boldest visions and your highest purpose\nExplore your inner depths in ways that greatly enhance how fully you show up in the world \u2014 making you a more compelling teacher, leader, activist, coach, or entrepreneur\nRelate from your authentic center \u2014 being more heartfelt, insightful, truthful, funny, and creative \u2014 and others find that compelling, as they also yearn for more freedom and integrity in how they engage\nWhen we sense someone is integrated and at peace with themselves, we trust them more and are drawn to interact and work with them.\nPeople respond more powerfully to someone who is clear, authentic, and whole \u2014 and in touch with their life-enhancing gifts.\nThe Importance of a Master Guide\nAs with any genuine spiritual inquiry, it\u2019s vital to have a master guide \u2014 one who knows the territory and can keep you on track (plus help you avoid the many pitfalls that emerge along any transformational journey!).\nFortunately, such a guide is available to you now...\nOver the last three decades, Mark Matousek has become one of the world\u2019s foremost chroniclers of the spiritual path \u2014 as an author (of the bestselling Sex Death Enlightenment), journalist (for publications such as The New Yorker and O), collaborator (on foundational books like The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying), and editor (for luminaries like Ram Dass).\nMark is a master of language and, more importantly, a genius at marrying the depth of spiritual practice with the practice of writing. He\u2019s a dynamic, funny, self-revealing, and profound teacher whose practices and disciplines can help you fashion a liberating, lifelong writing practice.\nAnd now you can join Mark for his upcoming, one-of-a-kind 7-week course, Writing to Reclaim Your Essential Gifts.\nWriting as a spiritual practice requires not only a sincere, heartfelt commitment and the intention to live a more authentic, liberated life, it demands a deep commitment to showing up and putting pen to paper \u2014 no matter what happens and no matter what emotions rise to the surface.\nIt\u2019s a discipline, however, that\u2019s not cruel or burdensome. On the contrary, it's discipline as in \u201cdisciple\u201d \u2014 a disciple does what she or he does out of love for the practice.\nWhen you commit to a regular practice, even for just 15 minutes a day, the practice takes on its own momentum, and it becomes easier and more inviting to sit down and do the work.\nIndeed, the pleasure of self-discovery quickly becomes self-motivating... every \u201caha!\u201d moment beckons you to go deeper; each exhilarating revelation leads to another; every writing session, no matter the length, ends too soon.\nDuring Writing to Reclaim Your Essential Gifts, Mark will take you on a structured journey through many key areas of writing, which can help free you from old limitations related to your identity, your relationships, and your innate genius.\nMark is direct and will hold you accountable \u2014 in a loving and healthy way. He\u2019ll challenge you to strive for a level of emotional intimacy beyond your current capacity. Yes, you may find yourself on the outer limits of your comfort zone, yet waiting on the other side of your discomfort is the liberating realization that you were as strong and as brave as you hoped you would be.\nUnder Mark\u2019s patient, compassionate guidance, you\u2019ll enter a safe container for honest self-inquiry, inside a supportive global community.\nYou\u2019ll be in good hands to take a deep dive into healing, freedom, and awakening through writing... discovering skills you can draw on for a lifetime.\nIn this 7-week online program, you\u2019ll emerge with:\nDeeper access to your spiritual identity\nGreater understanding of your authentic desires\nIncreased your resilience and capacity to handle adversity in your daily life\nEnhanced ability to discern the ego\u2019s voice from your soul voice\nGreater patience, wisdom, and trust \u2014 in both the animating force of the universe and in yourself\nIncreased self-knowledge that is also compassionate for the parts of you that might have felt ashamed of\nThe ability to make conscious choices that align with your truest intentions\nGreater access to intuition and right-brain creativity\nDeeper connection to the source of your own being\nA wider angle lens on your \u201clife myth\u201d\nAn inner refuge that you can turn to for wisdom and advice\nGreater freedom from shame related to your shadow (and understanding of its wisdom)\nA higher comfort level with your secret passions and fears\nIncreased discernment about where fear is blocking desire in your life\nA nondual approach to desire\nA more profound understanding of your personal source of meaning and purpose\nThe ability to focus your intentions, stop procrastinating, and practice discipline with kindness\nTools for upleveling your focus and flow\nExpanded access to your personal and creative genius\nA deepened ability to express your innate gifts in the world\nThe liberating gifts of the shadow\nCourse sessions are on Wednesdays at Noon Pacific.\nDuring this 7-week transformational intensive, Mark will guide you through the fundamental skills and competencies you\u2019ll need to create a daily writing practice that cultivates a more authentic, self-aware, and spiritual you \u2014 so you can discover, embody, and express your unique genius.\nEach weekly LIVE contemplation and training session will build harmoniously upon the next so that you\u2019ll develop a complete, holistic understanding of the practices, tools, and principles you\u2019ll need to sustain your spiritual writing practice.\nModule 1: The Landscape of Desire (March 14)\nThe journey of discovering your personal genius begins by exploring the landscape of desire. Desire is the lifeblood of creative life, the fuel that brings our gifts into the world. \u201cWhat makes the engine go? Desire, desire, desire,\u201d wrote the poet Stanley Kunitz. Unfortunately, many individuals never acknowledge the full force of their true desires nor the life-changing wisdom they carry. Revealing your authentic desires is the first step to accessing personal genius.\nIn this module, you\u2019ll discover that:\nDesire is the lifeblood of creativity; when you acknowledge your desires and connect to the power inherent in them, you awaken the genius within\nWe\u2019re frightened of the power of our own desires, fearful that if we follow them, our carefully controlled lives will be threatened\nDesire is a neutral universal energy (Eros) that can be channeled in positive or negative directions depending on your intention\nSuppressed desire tends to manifest in unskillful ways, including addiction, depression, and dissociation\nOnce we acknowledge the force of our desires, we can choose how to respond; we do not need to indulge our desires, necessarily \u2014 what matters is that we become conscious of the ENERGY of desire, in order to utilize it with creativity and imagination\nAmbivalence is the enemy of desire and the thief of personal genius; it leaches us of energy and puts us at cross-purposes with ourselves \u2014 by exposing what we\u2019re afraid (and ashamed) of, we resolve ambivalence and increase productivity and joy\nModule 2: Gifts of the Shadow (March 21)\nTo fully connect with personal genius, it's necessary to explore the shadow, that off-limits part of the psyche where we conceal aspects of ourselves that threaten the \u201cauthorized version\u201d \u2014 the status quo \u2014 of what we want to the world to see. Taught to conform, behave, avoid risk, and not stand out from the crowd, we bury (all too often) our originality, uniqueness, passion, and non-conformism in the shadow, along with our gifts. As Buckminster Fuller put it, \u201cEveryone is born a genius but the process of living de-geniuses us.\u201d The shadow is where we store this disowned power.\nThe shadow is that unacknowledged, off-limits, taboo part of the psyche where we conceal things (both positive and negative) that cause us discomfort\nIn order to earn acceptance and love, to be part of the group (the inner circle), and avoid alienating our caretakers and those whose opinions we value, we tend to hide our gifts in the shadow\nWe\u2019re taught from an early age to conform, obey, behave, and conceal what is most original and risky within us\nYou cannot know yourself, fully, nor gain access to your authentic power, without exploring the personal shadow; this is enormously rewarding and allows you to reclaim your disowned and discarded parts\nAcknowledging the gifts of the shadow increases courage, heals shame, and connects you to your core strengths\nThis reclamation of our neglected originality and power is our coming-of-age as creative people on a path of awakening \u2014 \u201cYou do not become enlightened by imagining figures of light, but by making the darkness conscious,\u201d wrote Carl Jung\nModule 3: Trusting the Gift (March 28)\nAcknowledging your gifts and learning to trust them are different. Like love, genius isn\u2019t something you choose; instead it chooses you, and accepting what you\u2019re born with is the next crucial step in self-realization. Many people reject their genius (just as many people reject love) when it doesn\u2019t fit their ideal of what the gift should look like. When you betray the truth of who you are (and what you\u2019re born with), you miss the opportunity to become your most authentic self, and bring what\u2019s within you into the open. As with any spiritual practice, awakening genius (like loving another) requires both trust and surrender.\nWe\u2019re often surprised by the contents of the shadow and what actually inspires us, which may contradict the image we present to the world (and, even, the person we want to be)\nIt requires patience and wisdom to accept your gifts, which may not be the ones you might have chosen (if you were God) \u2014 in the same way that you can\u2019t choose who you love, you cannot choose your native gifts\nWhen given the gifts of shadow, we may react in negative ways; we may attempt to deny what we have seen, but attempting to do so is futile and destructive \u2014 prime examples of this are sexuality (which, when closeted, turns toxic) and vocational aptitude (which may not align with personal will), e.g. a poet who longs to write the Great American Novel\nLearning to accept and trust your authentic gifts requires humility, flexibility, and imagination\nYou gain enormous energy through this acceptance, like finding the socket of your original light switch \u2014 suddenly, your inner world is illuminated, allowing for insight and self-knowledge in all areas of your life\nBy leaning into your natural affinities (gifts) and surrendering to a power greater than yourself, you connect to veriditas, the greening, animating, energizing force that animates the entire universe (including yourself)\nModule 4: Choice & Intention (April 4)\nOnce you\u2019ve learned to accept the gift, the next step is manifestation: the art of bringing your genius to life. For this to happen, you must learn to make conscious choices that align with your truest intentions. When you master the art of choosing well, understanding that every choice determines what matters to you and what doesn\u2019t, you come to see that a gifted, inspired life depends on the ability to say YES to what liberates and empowers you, and NO to what keeps you stuck and afraid. Each time you do this, you strengthen your ability to focus on freedom, and the joy that comes with a creative life.\nOnce you learn to accept the gift, the challenge is: How do you manifest your genius in your life? How to bring forth what is within you? A gift unshared is a waste of magic, a masking of beauty, a missed opportunity to connect with others\nIntention is the channel we create to guide our genius into the world. Intention \u2014 and her emotional sibling, commitment \u2014 are necessary for self-actualization\nIntention is honed through personal choice; your choices are the building blocks of personal meaning \u2014 with every choice you make, you decide what matters to you and what doesn\u2019t\nWhen we choose to open, we stop shutting down; when we choose to risk, we cease shrinking from power; when we choose to embody our gifts fully, we grow in emotional and spiritual stature\nGoal-setting is not the same as intention-setting; though valuable, goals are achievement-specific and can sometimes interfere with our true intentions \u2014 for example, if your intention is to be your most original, courageous self, but your goal is to be admired and popular, these motivations may cancel one another out\nThe intention to \u201clive your genius\u201d will focus your choices and relieve conflict and stress in your life\nModule 5: Focus & Flow (April 11)\nYou cannot enter the state of flow without first learning to focus. Many gifted people never succeed in finding their path for lack of one-pointed attention, the inability to stick with their best intentions. Distraction, ambivalence, resistance, uncertainty \u2014 all forms of confusion \u2014 deplete your resolve and the energy required to live as a gifted person. Personal genius (like love) does not come for free; it requires faith and diligence, and the willingness to drop bad habits that interfere with personal growth. Fortunately, there are tools for strengthening focus and flow that can help you on your chosen path.\nCreativity requires focus; without one-pointed attention, you cannot manifest your gifts in the world\nFocus requires discipline, not self-tyranny; when you use discipline as an ally (a disciple follows her or his teacher or tradition out of love), and develop a zero-tolerance policy toward self-bullying, you align with the \u201cteacher within\u201d\nUsing one-pointed attention, you can learn to say no to distraction and the saboteurs of ambivalence; you can then abandon the myth of multitasking and conquer the habits of trying to do too much at the same time\nFocus creates a sacred space within which manifestation can occur \u2014 a refuge for the creative spirit, just as one-pointed attention allows meditation to occur during practice\nWith focus comes the state of flow, a blessed state of union with personal genius, when time seems to stop and we\u2019re aware of being exactly where we\u2019re meant to be; this brings ease to the mind and opens the channel(s) of possibility\nFlow is identical to presence, the unified state of being that is the aim of all spiritual practices\nModule 6: The Power of Play (April 18)\nPlayfulness is one of the powerful tools that can help you strengthen focus and flow, though you\u2019re rarely encouraged to cultivate it. Without play, there\u2019s no freedom to push the envelope, experiment with fresh ideas, open new doors (that both scare and excite you), or risk the possibility of failure. Without failure, there can be no growth; without entering unknown territory, mastering the art of \u201cnot knowing,\u201d a creative life is impossible. Through the power of play, you learn to transcend the limits of know-it-all mind (the enemy of inspiration and rebirth) and enter into the mystery of all that has yet to be revealed.\nBy connecting to presence, and allowing your gifts to emerge, you can rediscover the power of play to liberate and nourish you\nPlay counteracts the confining nature of ego and frees you to be childlike in how you relate to your gifts, and to other people\nWhen you learn to play, you heal the child within who may have been silenced too young, and so lived with regret or a sense of being ignored or invisible\nPlay gives you access to intuition and the powers of right-brain (irrational) creativity; you come to see that \u201cmaking sense\u201d has its limits. Logic can be a straitjacket when you lean on it too heavily. \u201cWe are poor, indeed, if we are only sane,\u201d wrote the psychologist D. W. Winnicott\nPlay also frees you to investigate areas of life, and yourself, that are too threatening to the defensive, grown-up ego-mind \u2014 you cease taking yourself so seriously, which paradoxically makes you more formidable\nPlay helps you transcend fixed, conventional boundaries, false dualities (and oppositions) that lock us into lives of excessive caution \u2014 you learn \u201crisk is extra life\u201d\nModule 7: Coming Home to Yourself (April 25)\nUncovering your unique gifts is a spiritual homecoming. Recognizing the voice of your genius, the wisdom messages of your personal muse, connects you to the roots of existence, your very reasons for being alive. Thus grounded in personal meaning and power, linked intimately to your own true nature, your life is transformed from one of confusion, frustration, wandering, and struggle to a life of clarity, comfort, and joy. Having revealed and accepted your gifts, you\u2019re no longer a stranger to yourself. You\u2019ve learned to live like an artist, to bless the creative spirit inside you, to choose \u201cthe road less traveled,\u201d knowing that wherever it leads you, that is exactly where you belong.\nAccessing personal genius is like coming home to yourself, and rediscovering the source of your own being\nWhen you feel at home in the world, life becomes friendlier and more hospitable; the grief of separation (from yourself, others, God) comes to an end\nIn the light of homecoming, shame and envy have no place; you feel sufficient just as you are, which brings a new kind of peace\nConnected to your desires and inspiration, you move toward growth and efflorescence, discovery, and surprise; you\u2019re no longer frightened by \u201cnot knowing\u201d and recognize mystery as your greatest ally\nYou no longer silence the truth within; instead, you learn to be more honest, forgiving, and tolerant toward your own contradictions. You see that you\u2019re \u201cmany voices\u201d brought together in one house. \u201cDo I contradict myself? Very well then, I contradict myself. I am vast. I contain multitudes,\u201d wrote Walt Whitman\nMaking room for your own complexity, allowing your \u201cchorus of selves\u201d to unite, you become a force of truth in the world, helping others to recognize their own chorus and grow into their own blessed fullness\nThe Writing to Reclaim Your Essential Gifts Bonus Collection\nIn addition to Mark\u2019s transformative 7-week virtual course, you\u2019ll receive these powerful training sessions with leading visionaries and teachers. These bonus sessions complement the course \u2014 and promise to take your understanding and practice to an even deeper level.\nWhat the Shadow Knows: Discovering Our Secret Knowledge\nAudio Dialogue With Mark Matousek and Thomas Moore\nThe psychologist and \u201cgodfather of soul\u201d talks to Mark about the role of the shadow in creative and spiritual life.\nThomas Moore is the author of the classic bestseller Care of the Soul, a #1 New York Times bestseller, and 18 other books. He has been a monk, a musician, a university professor, and, for over 30 years, a psychotherapist practicing archetypal therapy with a spiritual dimension. His books appear in over 25 languages and he lectures in many parts of the world. For 15 years he has taught psychiatrists and has worked closely with medical schools, hospices, and hospitals. He also speaks often at C. G. Jung societies. He has won awards for his teaching and his books, including an honorary doctorate from Lesley University and the Einstein Humanitarian Award from Yeshiva University.\nMaking Art & the Practice of Awakening: On the Cushion & Off\nAudio Dialogue With Mark Matousek and Jane Hirshfield\nThe award-winning poet discusses with Mark the pitfalls of the creative process and the need for personal authenticity in artistic life.\nJane Hirshfield is the author of eight books of poetry, including The Beauty; Come, Thief; After; and Given Sugar, Given Salt. She has edited and co-translated four books presenting the work of poets from the past and is the author of two major collections of essays, Nine Gates: Entering the Mind of Poetry, and Ten Windows: How Great Poems Transform the World.

Eliot Prize; they have been named best books of the year by The Washington Post, San Francisco Chronicle, Amazon, and Financial Times; and they have won the California Book Award, the Poetry Center Book Award, and the Donald Hall-Jane Kenyon Prize in American Poetry. Hirshfield has received fellowships from the Guggenheim and Rockefeller foundations, the National Endowment for the Arts, and the Academy of American Poets. Her poems have appeared in The New Yorker, The Atlantic, the Times Literary Supplement, The Washington Post, The New York Times, Harper\u2019s Magazine, Poetry, Orion, Discover, The American Poetry Review, McSweeney\u2019s, the Pushcart Prize anthology, and eight editions of The Best American Poetry. A resident of Northern California since 1974, she\u2019s a current chancellor of the Academy of American Poets.\nThankfulness as a Spiritual Practice\nAudio Dialogue With Mark Matousek and Mark Nepo\nThe poet philosopher talks to Mark about the creative path, and the role of spiritual wisdom in artistic self-discovery.\nMark Nepo is a poet and philosopher who has taught in the fields of poetry, health, and spirituality for 40 years.

After relocating to a new city and being without work, I was able to use this course to pull my life stories apart and get a good glimpse at where I\u2019ve been. With that insight, I have started to get a better sense of where to direct my ship for the next course of this life adventure...

Thanks to Mark\u2019s perceptive insights, I now know what I want to do, how I want to live, and what direction to go in. I experienced Mark as perceptive, non-judgemental, and constructive. He created an atmosphere of safety and respect that allowed me to explore much deeper territory and move beyond the obstacles I had thrown in my way.\n\u201cGave me a new way of looking at the story of my life...\u201d\nWriting to Awaken gave me a new way of looking at the story of my life in a supportive and structured way. It allowed disconnected parts out into the openness of the page... It\u2019s not an \u201ceasy\u201d course. It\u2019s up to the participant to do what\u2019s suggested to get the benefit. Every participant will have taken away something different for their own journey and I am appreciative for this next step.\n\u2014 Nerida, Phillip Island, Australia\n\u201cA powerful experience in opening up new pathways...\u201d\nI found that Mark\u2019s compassionate and insightful interactions, his discourses on the week\u2019s topic, and the writing exercises created for me a powerful experience in opening up new pathways into myself.\n\u2014 Derek, New Zealand\nWriting to Reclaim Your Essential Gifts not only offers some of the most advanced online teachings currently available, it\u2019s also a thriving global community of learning and practice.\nJoin your fellow students and practitioners from across the world in the live interactive conference calls or in our online community to support and learn from each other while you deepen your spiritual development through writing.\nThis international community is also at the leading edge of a global movement of people who are committed to manifesting a better world for all beings.

I\u2019m deeply grateful for the experience.\n\u2014 Brian Carr, President, Solid Threads\n\u201cAllows me to access what I\u2019ve got to share\u201d\nMark is more of a midwife than a teacher.

        "raw_content": "The current timeline for the Neighbourhood Plan\nComments received on the publication version of the NP were reviewed at the Steering Group meeting on 21 November and the final version for examination was submitted to the Vale of White Horse District Council.\nThe Steering Group considered a shortlist of independent examiners and based on advice selected Andrew Ashcroft, who was the examiner for the Radley NP. He started work in December 2018 and we hope that the examination will proceed rapidly in January 2019. The examination process is managed by the VWHDC and will be followed by a referendum of our parishes residents.\nKeep an eye out for referendum notifications and we should have more news next month. We hope that the NP will be made in early 2019 and become a legal part of the planning process.\nThe Vale's Local Plan Part 2 has progressed with a dialogue between the inspector and the Vale following his public examination. Full details can be found on the examination web page http://www.whitehorsedc.gov.uk/services-andadvice/planning-and-building/planning-policy/localplan-2031-part-2/local-plan-2031-par . The initial response from the LPP2 Inspector was encouraging as he requested limiting development on the airfield to 1200 dwellings in the planning period up until 2031 with any further development having to be considered in subsequent Plan. He also confirmed that the army playing field on Cholswell Road/Long Tow would be retained within the Green Belt, as would land adjacent to Starveall Farm in White Cross. He appeared to intimate that only sufficient land should be removed from the Green Belt to facilitate the building of the 1200 dwellings.\nIn a subsequent communication to the Vale the LPP2 Inspector, surprisingly, asked them to remove \"the built up area of Shippon and the built up area of Dalton Barracks\" from the Green Belt. The SG queried this with his office and received the response that this request is \u2018without prejudice to his final decision\u2019.\nThe Steering Group are obviously concerned about this apparent contradiction and ST Helen Without Parish Council has written to our local MPs seeking their support\nThe VWHDC appointed an independent examiner in December 2018, namely, Mr Andrew Ashcroft. The NP Steering Group was given a choice of examiners by the VWHDC and sought advice from our NP consultant, Nigel McGurk before selecting Mr Ashcroft. He was the examiner for the Radley Neighbourhood Plan.\nIt is anticipated that the examination with take place in January / February 2018.\nOnce the examiner is satisfied that the NP has met the required conditions, the VWHDC will organise a referendum of the local community in early 2019. If a majority of those voting support the NP it will be adopted and become a legal part of the VWHDC's Planning Process.\nThe two Parish Councils will be responsible for the implementation of the NP, particularly, seeking ways to build on the ideas for community actions to enhance the quality of life in the area.\nThe Neighbourhood Plan has now progressed from its publication phase and we will have, hopefully, reviewed any comments made, at our meeting on 21st November.\nThe Plan will then be ready for submission to an independent examiner, whom we will chose from a list supplied by the Vale of White Horse District Council. Whilst we are unsure of the timescales involved we are pressing to have this completed as soon as possible.\nMeanwhile the LPP2 (The Vale\u2019s Local Plan Part 2) inspector has written a preliminary response to the Vale following the recent public examination of that plan. The Inspector appears to have picked up on a number of issues raised by our NP. His full comments can be viewed www.whitehorsedc.gov.uk - Local Plan 2031 Part 2: Examination -Examination Library List.\nAs there is no WADS newsletter in January, we will ensure that our website is kept fully up to date with any developments in respect of the NP. Our website address is www.wshwnp.org.uk\nWe are delighted that after a period of discussion with the Vale of White Horse District Council (VWHDC) they have accepted our Neighbourhood Plan (NP) for submission for independent examination with some minor amendments.\nThe VWHDC are inviting comments on the NP and supporting documents prior to the examination during a six-week publicity period from Friday 5 October until 5pm on Friday 16 November 2018. You can view the NP and supporting documents at www.whitehorsedc.gov.uk/wshw\nHard copies are available to view at Wootton and Dry Sandford Community Centre between 8am and 10pm Monday to Sunday in the main foyer, or at The Prince of Wales Public House, Shippon on: Mondays: 5.30pm \u2013 9pm; Tuesdays to Thursdays: 12pm \u2013 3pm and 5.30pm \u2013 11pm; Fridays and Saturdays: 12pm \u2013 12am and Sundays: 12pm \u2013 5:30pm. To view the documents outside of these times, please email: clerkshwpc@woottondrysandfordshippon.co.uk.\nThe documents are also available to view at Vale of White Horse District Council\u2019s office, 135 Eastern Avenue, Milton Park, Abingdon, OX14 4SB between 8.30am and 5pm Monday to Thursday and 8.30am to 4.30pm on Fridays.\nThe most convenient way to comment is the online questionnaire, which is available at http://survey.southandvale.gov.uk/s/WSHWNP/ Responses can also be made by: * emailing planning.policy@whitehorsedc.gov.uk * writing to Vale of White Horse District Council at the above address * completing a comment form (available at the above venues) and posting or emailing it back to us.\nThe NP Steering Group encourages everyone to study the NP. It is very much based on what the community sees as the most important issues and needs for the future development of our area. The Independent Examiner will consider all comments both supportive and those, which suggests ways in which the NP could be improved.\nIt is anticipated that the examination with take place in December 2018. Once the examiner is satisfied that the NP has met the required conditions, the VWHDC will organise a referendum of the community in early 2019. If a majority of those voting support the NP it will be adopted and become a legal part of the VWHDC's Planning Process. The two Parish Councils will be responsible for the implementation of the NP, particularly, seeking ways to build on the ideas for community actions to enhance the quality of life in the area.\nIn the June 2018 WADS Newsletter the Draft Neighbourhood Plan (NP) was launched with the community and statutory bodies given a six week period (ending 6 July 2018) in which to give their responses and comments. The VWHDC submitted their response late on the 10 July 2018 and the Steering Group had to use a previous draft response received in May 2018 in considering any up-dated to the draft plan (Note: the 10 July response was virtually identical to the previous version).\nThe Steering Group considered all the responses and where it felt a comment would strengthen the NP changes were made. The final submission NP was completed with a great effort from Jan Banfield (SG Vice Chair) and Gwen Morgan, who did the design work and was submitted to the Vale on Monday 6th August 2018, together with all the supporting material.\nThe submission NP and the other documents can be downloaded from the website www.wshwnp.org.uk.\nThe next steps are organised by the Vale:\n\u2022 Vale must satisfy itself that the NP submitted to it for independent examination complies with all the relevant statutory requirements.\n\u2022 The Vale appoints an independent examiner - his role is limited to testing whether or not a NP meets what are called the Basic Conditions and a few other matters.\n\u2022 You can give your views or submit evidence to the independent examiner, for the examiner to consider, by written representations to the Vale during the statutory publicity period which must be at least 6 weeks.\n\u2022 If the examiner is satisfied with the NP then they will recommend that the NP proceed to referendum which will be organised for a specific date by the Vale.\n\u2022 If a majority of those who vote are in favour of the NP then it will be \"made\" and become a legal part of the Vale's planning process.\nLaunch of Draft Neighbourhood Plan - Consultation You have told us your views and priorities for our area over the past 12 months through a variety of workshops, events and questionnaires.\nOur Neighbourhood Plan has the following three aims:\n1. Protection of the rural character of the area and the discrete nature of our settlements. This is enshrined in our Spatial Strategy (SS) policies, which seeks to protect the rural setting and character of each of our settlements.\n2. Provision of more appropriate and timely infrastructure than would otherwise occur. This is detailed in our Infrastructure Needs (IN) policies, which address the timing of infrastructure delivery, specific anticipated threats to existing infrastructure (e.g. our roads), and the infrastructure needs of specific sections of our communities.\n3. Delivery of development that \u2018fits in with\u2019 our area\u2019s character and communities. This is specified in our Design Guide (DG), which requires development to reflect the historic and rural setting of the area, encourages design standards that are higher than the minimum required nationally, and identifies heritage assets that are locally important and worthy of protection.\nOur planning policies are organised around nine objectives, which seek to deliver these aims. The objectives and policies are outlined in the following table.\nThe community were informed of the outcome of the questionnaire at a public workshop on Wednesday 11th April. The winners of the competition were\nFirst Prize (\u00a3100); Daren Hutchinson, Shippon\nSecond Prize (\u00a350); Susan Clifton, Wootton\nThe workshop also discussed the emerging Neighbourhood Plan.\nPlacecheck\nLet us know what you like and don\u2019t like about your community by signing up to Placecheck on http://www.placecheck.info/maps/view/?map=wootonsthelen It there is a green space that you think should be preserved or an road which suffers from traffic jams or speeding you can mark it on the map and make a comment.

The Neighbourhood Plan Steering Group would like to invite local residents interested in discussing these issues on Thursday 19th April between 4pm and 6pm at the Wootton and Dry Sandford Community Centre; tea and cake will be served. At the meeting we hope to create an audit of areas which could be improved and to discuss the rules that should be laid down in the Neighbourhood Plan for new developments.\nWe will be seeking stunning photographs of areas within the parishes of Wootton and St Helen Without to use within the final version of our Neighbourhood Plan.

This will include assessing the impact of the proposed Garden Village on the Dalton Barracks site, both in terms of challenges and opportunities and on the impact on the local infrastructure. As a first step the Wootton and St Helen Without Neighbourhood Plan Steering Group cordially invites representatives of local businesses in the two parishes, large and small, to attend an Open Evening on Wednesday 8th November from 6pm to 9pm at the Wootton & Dry Sandford Community Centre. The invitation includes farmers and landowners. It is hoped that volunteers interested in participating in a Business Forum can be identified at the event. Drinks and refreshments will be served. If would be helpful if you could inform the Wootton Parish Clerk if you plan to attend. Tel. 01865 739419; e-mail \u2013 g.edmondsbrown@btinternet.com\nThe Vale of White Horse District Council Local Plan Part 2\nThe consultation on the VWHDC Local Plan Part 2 was published on 11th October; the consultation period will last until 5pm on Wednesday 22 November 2017.\nDetails of the Local Plan can be found on the VWHDC website\nhttp://www.whitehorsedc.gov.uk/services-and-advice/planning-and-building/planning-policy/local-plan-2031-part-2\nThe VWHDC will hold a series of events, each will be an exhibition from 4 to 6.30pm followed by a public meeting from 7 to 8.30pm. the dates and venues are as follows -\nMonday 6 November: Abingdon and Witney College, Wootton Road, Abingdon, OX14 1GG\nTuesday 14 November: Corn Exchange, Gloucester Street, Faringdon, SN7 7JA\nWednesday 15 November: Harwell Village Hall, High Street, Harwell, OX11 0EX\nThe proposal to build a Garden Village on the Dalton Barracks site will have a big impact on our two parishes and it will be important that the two Parish Councils and our Neighbourhood Plan Steering Committee, together with as many residents as possible, respond to the consultation.\nThe Joint Neighbourhood Plan\nA meeting of all our volunteers will be held on Tuesday 10th October at 7pm at the Wootton and Dry Sandford Community Centre; refreshments will be served. If you have not yet volunteered, but are interested in helping with the Neighbourhood Plan you are very welcome to attend.\nThe next consultation on the VWHDC Local Plan Part 2 will be published in October. The VWHDC will be holding an event on the Plan on Thursday 16th October from 3pm to 9pm at the Community Centre. Information is gradually emerging on the amendments to the Plan following the consultation earlier in the year. These include a decision not to remove Whitecross out of the Green Belt; this is to be welcomed. Unfortunately this success has not been mirrored in Shippon, which it is still proposed to remove from the Green Belt. We will be seeking the views of residents, so that we can address this issue in the next round of consultation.\nTHE NEIGHBOURHOOD PLAN\nWork has been continuing over the summer, the area covered by the Plan has been designated and a Project Plan and budget is being prepared so that we can apply for grants. We exhibited at WADS-STOCK and are now preparing the next stage of engagement with the public. The Sub-Groups have begun their work and discussions are taking place with the District Council.\nWADS-STOCK\nA large number of people visited our stall at WADS-STOCK and we had an excellent response from residents completing the mini-survey. This has provided some very useful information on the areas of importance to residents, which will be useful in our main public consultation. Those who completed the questionnaire were able to enter a competition for a prize draw -\nWe would like to congratulate the following winners of the prize draw (see photos)\n1st Prize - Hamper - Tammy Matthew & little Ethan, Dry Sandford\n2nd Prize - Vodka - Joan & Michael, Dry Sandford\n3rd Prize - Wine - Jess & Daniel, Wootton\nWe would like to thank the following local companies for contributing to the competition prizes \u2013 The Bystander, The Coop, Fit2Run, The Flower Workshop, Fortress Alarms, Head to Toe, KTM Premier Bikes, Leo Fish & Chip and Chinese Takeaway, Lowe and Oliver, Mallams Auctioneers, Manor Flooring, Molly Maids, One Stop, Oxford Fireplaces, Oxford Kitchens, Smart Signs and Graphics, John Werrell & Son, Whitecross Metals and Wootton Pharmacy.\nWe have had an excellent response from the community offering to help with the Neighbourhood Plan. As we move forward we hope to be able to fully engage with our volunteers and to identify the areas each one would like to focus on. One of the main elements in developing a Neighbourhood plan is to engage with the public and find out what are the main areas of concern to them and how they would like to see improvements made to their community. One of the key instruments for achieving this will be the main questionnaire which we hope to circulate in September. As this will be our principal evidence base, it will be important that as many residents as possible complete it. We hope to build a team of volunteers who are willing to follow up in their local street or area encouraging and helping people to complete it. This will be a useful task which should involve helping for a six week period. Do let the Wootton Clerk know if you would like to be involved.\nWe want to hear you views so feel free to contact us by e-mailing steeringgroup@wshwnp.org.uk Do keep informed by visiting the neighbourhood Plan website www.wshwnp.org.uk .\nDownload Our Neighbourhood Plan Leaflet\nWork is continuing on the Joint Neighbourhood Plan, the Steering Group is setting up sub-committees to consider \u201cEnvironment and Conservation\u201d; \u201cInfrastructure\u201d; and \u201cDevelopment.\u201d\nThe work of these sub-groups will be vitally important in developing the Plan; other sub-groups are likely to be set up soon. Joining a sub-group will offer volunteers the opportunity to fully engage with the future of your community; it is not too late to volunteer.\nThe Parish Councils and the Steering Group are working with the District Council on the area to be covered by the Plan (the Designated Area) and we are hoping to receive a decision shortly. This will allow us to apply for grants to assist the development of the Plan. The Neighbourhood Plan Group will have a stall at WADS-STOCK where you can learn more about the Neighbourhood Plan and let us have your views.\nYou will see an advert on Page 7 of this newsletter and a leaflet giving more details. The Neighbourhood Plan Group now has its own website www.wshwnp.org.uk keep yourself informed and e-mail steeringgroup@wshwnp.org.uk to contact us.\nIt was agreed at the last Neighbourhood Plan Steering Group meeting on 28th June that we would send our volunteers regular updates on developments. The Group greatly values your willingness to help with the Neighbourhood Plan and welcomes any comments you may have, including letting them know of particular areas in which you would like to get involved.\nAndrew Maxted the Senior Vale of White Horse District Council Planning Policy Officer, who has particular responsibility for the VWHDC Local Plan Part 2, and Louise Rawlins the VWHDC Community Engagement Officer attended our meeting on the 28th June. Andrew Maxted confirmed that the Area Designation of our Neighbourhood Plan has now been agreed and we should get formal confirmation very soon. This will allow the process of preparing the Plan to begin including applying for grants to assist the Steering Group\u2019s work, by helping to meet the cost of technical assistance and printing.\nLouise Rawlins will be able to help the Steering Group to seek the views of our residents in developing the Plan. This will include designing a questionnaire to send to every household in the two parishes.\nMembers of the Steering Group and the two parish councils met the Vale of White Horse DC team on 12 June to discuss progress and agreed to meet regularly. This will enable us to benefit from the Vale\u2019s experience in Neighbourhood Planning and will also allow us to feed in our views into the Local Plan Part 2 process; the Plan will have a major impact on our community as it envisages building 1200 houses on the Dalton Barracks site by 2031, rising to up to 5,000 thereafter. The next consultation on the Local Plan Part 2 is expected in October.\nAs you will see from the community newsletter, the Steering Group will have a stall at WADS-STOCK on the 29th July at the Wootton & Dry Sandford Community Centre. The Stall will be staffed from 10am until 6pm so do please drop by and have a chat. Residents will be asked to complete a short questionnaire, the results of which will be helpful in identifying the key issues to be addressed in the Plan and will be used to design the main questionnaire. Everyone who completes a questionnaire will have the opportunity of entering a competition for a prize hamper kindly made up from donations from local companies.\nSub-Groups have now been set up covering \u201cEnvironment and Conservation\u201d, \u201cInfrastructure\u201d and \u201cDevelopment\u201d; full details of the areas they will cover and those that have already volunteered to participate are attached at Annex A. If you are interested in participating in any of the sub-groups do not hesitate to contact us. Other groups and activities will be set up as the Plan is developed and if you are not already involved we will be happy to work with you to find a role that interests you.\nThe Steering Committee is now meeting every three weeks and is beginning to identify the areas to be covered in the Joint Neighbourhood Plan. It has been able to meet representatives of other parishes that have prepared a Neighbourhood Plan and to benefit from their advice and experience.\nThe Steering Committee invited the volunteers who had offered to help with the Neighbourhood Plan to its meeting on 17th May, this provided an opportunity to begin the dialogue on how the community volunteers can help produce the Plan. New volunteers from the two parishes are still very welcome and it should be possible to identify how everyone can help in an area where they have a particular interest. If you would like to volunteer please contact your parish clerk.\nThe Vale of White Horse District Council has put to consultation the proposal by the two Parish Councils that the Joint Neighbourhood Plan designated area should be the whole area within the boundaries of the two parishes. The consultation period ended on 26th May and the two parishes can expect to hear at the beginning of June whether the designated area has been approved. This will enable the parishes to apply for grants to assist the Steering Committee in developing the Neighbourhood Plan.\nThe Steering Group met twice in April 2017 to provide a response to the LPP2 consultation. You can find the Steering Group NP response here.\nProgress is being made in developing the Wootton & St Helen Without Joint Neighbourhood Plan. The Steering Committee held its first meeting on 14th March and expects to start soon a process of consulting the communities in both parishes to ascertain their views on the key issues to be addressed in the Neighbourhood Plan.\nThe Steering Committee are grateful for the volunteers that have come forward to help with the Neighbourhood Plan and hope to be able to meet with them soon. Contributions in any way are most welcome and the Committee has suggested one or two areas that members of the community might consider \u2013\nIt is important that the views of young people are included in our plans for the future of our communities. There could, therefore, be a task for a younger person to canvass the views of younger members of the community perhaps by setting up an arrangement through the social media (this could for example be an exercise for someone working towards a Duke of Edinburgh\u2019s Award).\nOne of our team is blind and would welcome help from someone volunteering to read key documents to them.\nWe still need someone to take the minutes of the Steering Committee. [note: we now have someone to help us with this.]\nA Public Meeting was held on 17th January and was very well attended. Presentations were given by the Vale of White Horse District Council and Community First Oxfordshire and residents responded with a lively session of questions and answers. Developing a Neighbourhood Plan is an exercise involving the whole community and it is vital that volunteers come forward to offer their time and skills to the process. We are grateful to the volunteers that have come forward already and we shall be in touch with them shortly.\nContribute to the future...",

        "raw_content": "Home2016 West Virginia Brownfield Award Winners\n2016 West Virginia Brownfield Award Winners\nThe 2016 West Virginia Brownfield Award in Economic Development recognizes a project or community partner that has demonstrated excellence in economic development on one or more brownfield site. This year\u2019s recipient is the Business Development Corporation of the Northern Panhandle. The BDC has leveraged $69,621,000 of private investment on brownfield redevelopment projects in Chester, Newell, Weirton, Wellsburg, and Beech Bottom, W.Va., and created 999 jobs and helped to retain 132 jobs with these efforts. They have explored new and creative ways to finance and redevelop brownfield projects, such as an innovative deal structure with Hackman Capital on a more than 600-acre site in Beech Bottom, which was featured as the Wall Street Journal\u2019s Deal of the Week. The work of the BDC has been highlighted at state and national brownfields conferences, development finance conferences, and community development conferences across the nation.\nThe 2016 WV Brownfield Award in Community Engagement recognizes a partner or community who has demonstrated an exceptional commitment to community engagement, working closely with communities to identify and implement redevelopment priorities. This year\u2019s recipient is the Van Voorhees Landing Kayak Launch Project (on the former Quality Glass site). The Mon River Trails Conservancy and the Morgantown Area Paddlers are being awarded the 2016 Brownfields Community Engagement Award for their successful efforts to collaborate with over 20 stakeholder organizations and the Morgantown area community to bring the final vision for the former Quality Glass brownfield site to life. The MRTC deserves kudos for their determination to advocate for clean-up efforts and implement the redevelopment milestones of creating a trailhead and restroom at this former brownfield site along the rail-trail over a long project that has had to keep many stakeholders engaged since 2008. The MRTC should be lauded for their determination and creation of a new collaboration with the newly formed MAP to complete the vision of recreational access to the Monongahela River at the Van Voorhis Trailhead. The Kayak Launch project engaged the community to raise approximately $40,000 in three months from 15 organizations and businesses, three small grants, 16 donations from private citizens, and from the sale of over 330 Cabela\u2019s Drawing tickets by MAP members to complete the Kayak Launch project. In the process, many volunteers were also recruited and organized to support the upkeep of the Van Voorhis Landing facility. The Kayak Launch will increase access to the Mon River Rail-Trail and Upper Mon Water Trail; increase parking for the trail users and boaters; improve the rail-trail and water trail overall experience; further promote recreational opportunities of the area; and bring new outdoor recreation business opportunities to surrounding communities, including Star City and Morgantown, W.Va. and Point Marion, PA.\nThe Environmental Impact Award recognizes a project, organization, or community that has made a significant impact on the cleanup of environmental hazards through a single or multiple projects. This year\u2019s recipient is Merit Development, Inc., for their work at the Owens Illinois Glass plant property in Fairmont. Merit Development Inc. purchased the abandoned glass plant property in 2015 and entered into a Voluntary Remediation Agreement with the WVDEP Office of Environmental Remediation to revitalize the site for Commercial and Industrial uses. The site had been abandoned for well over thirty years. The 26-acre site is located in a prime location for future development. The initial site assessment has been completed and the site has been cleared of unsightly brush and debris. Due to its location within the FEMA 100 year floodplain a study has been completed to evaluate future development and improve overall flood elevations if a flood should occur in the future. The property is being developed privately without any monetary assistance from government agencies. The completed site will create an improvement to surface drainage within and around the site, will isolate contaminated soils of concern so that a desolate waste land can be destination for future businesses in the City of Fairmont. The project area is very large and has many complicated issues which have kept other developers and public entities from committing to the task of redeveloping. Merit Development tackled those task and continues to move forward in the development of the site.\nThe Local Leadership Award recognizes a neighborhood, city, or county leader with a strong commitment to brownfield redevelopment. This year\u2019s recipients are Ray Moeller and the Richwood Main Street Alliance. The Main Street Alliance (MSA) was formed in response to several new Richwood Main Historic Main Street opportunities. The MSA consists of the mayor, the Richwood Building Commission, the Chamber of Commerce, a Main Street business owner and community advocate, and a local builder. A detailed plan of development was crafted and donated property has been conveyed to the Building Commission for redevelopment in downtown Richwood. A $40,000 grant was solicited and received from the Collins Foundation and restoration is underway. These buildings will provide sound four storefronts for new business considerations on Richwood\u2019s well-traveled main street. Working as a team, the MSA brings together key community partners in an informal but cohesive working relationship. A key member of the Main Street Alliance, Ray Moeller came to West Virginia as a VISTA and because of his passion for the area and the people here he decided to pursue full time employment once the VISTA position ran out. Ray has worked in Nicholas County and specifically Richwood to create many positive changes for his adopted community. He was a key player in the Blueprint Communities, helped to create a solar garden, and has been integral in addressing abandoned and dilapidated buildings through a property registration and demolition program. He helped the City receive multiple grants from the NBAC\u2019s West Virginia Redevelopment Collaborative to focus on a major problem property in town. These efforts led to the release of more than $375,000 in liens against the property, a major barrier to redevelopment. Ray\u2019s efforts to revitalize Richwood and create economic growth have never wavered. He inspires community members, service providers, and others to continue on the path of economic growth even when it isn\u2019t easy, to do the job at hand and move on to the next project.\nThe Redevelopment Partner Award recognizes an individual, organization, agency, or other institution that has demonstrated a strong commitment to brownfield redevelopment and worked closely with the BACs to facilitate brownfield redevelopment across the state. This year\u2019s recipient is Christy Bailey of the National Coal Heritage Highway Authority. Christy Bailey currently serves as the Executive Director of the National Coal Heritage Area Authority with responsibility for historic preservation and heritage tourism development in the National Coal Heritage Area and along the Coal Heritage Trail, a national scenic byway. The National Coal Heritage Area encompasses thirteen counties in the southern West Virginia coalfields where efforts are currently underway to restore and preserve coal structures and coal communities as cultural heritage tourism venues, while retaining their unique features and sense of place. She makes her home in Beckley and travels extensively throughout southern West Virginia to assist communities and organizations with their efforts to preserve their history and tell their stories. Christy\u2019s leadership on restoration of the former Patteson/Dearing Building in Mt. Hope is an excellent example of taking a severely dilapidated building within the core area of the small town, and transforming it into productive reuse, in this case the future location of the Coal Heritage Discovery Center. The property has had a TBA assessment conducted under the EPA Region III Brownfields Program, tanks removed by WVDEP, and a significant building rehabilitation work. Interior work is beginning soon, with a planned opening in 2017. Christy has raised over $800,000 in public and private funding, including funding from the National Scenic Byway Program, National Park Service, State Historic Preservation Office, Greater Kanawha Foundation, Greater Mt. Hope Foundation, plus others.\nThe Brownfields Visionary Award recognizes an exemplary individual or organization that has shown innovation and vision in the redevelopment of brownfields with major statewide impact. This year\u2019s recipient is Mary Hunt of the Claude W. Benedum Foundation. Mary Hunt, Senior Program Manager for the Claude W. Benedum Foundation, has been an advocate for community revitalization her entire career and a brownfield redevelopment champion for the last 10 years. Mary is receiving this award due to her extraordinary vision of how communities can use brownfield redevelopment as an opportunity to build community and leadership capacity, grow a better informed citizenry, and foster entrepreneurial efforts. All of this can be done, according to Mary, while also removing community blight, and the physical and psychological impact that blight has on the community. Mary\u2019s vision of a revitalized West Virginia has helped shaped brownfields programs and technical assistance. Mary is a proponent of the quote \u201cThe difference between a vision and a hallucination is how many people see it\u201d. We consider Mary a visionary because of her tireless efforts to connect the dots West Virginia brownfields with federal agencies, state leaders, and local project champions she interacts with. We thank Mary for spreading the good work of community redevelopment and economic revitalization.",

        "raw_content": "Three beautiful girls tucked into bed. One beautiful girl somewhere over the Pacific Ocean. One tired dad feeling lonely and very separated from the love of his life. But it\u2019s not too long. Four days and we\u2019ll all be back together again as a family.\nCali keeps coming out of her shell. She is extremely comfortable around us now. She is quite the goofball, particularly when she gets tired at the end of the night. When asked to go to bed, she\u2019ll giggle and lay on the floor and grab my leg and do anything but get into bed. I am truly grateful for the lessons I have learned over the last six years and five adoptions. I am much more able to realize how difficult this adjustment can be for an adopted child. A few years ago, I would likely have become pretty stern with a child who would not obey after repeated requests. But today I am able to not only not get stern, but not even be tempted to get stern. I have much yet to learn, but I have certainly come a long way. And I am grateful to the kids who have helped me learn some pretty important lessons.\nTonight I had our wonderful guide, Jason, interpret for me as I talked to Cali for a minute. I told her that sometimes the local people come up and talk to us as they see us with Chinese children. Since Cali can speak Chinese, she is often the one that converses with them. As these people learn that we have adopted six children from China, they often give us thumbs up, thank you\u2019s and supportive comments like \u201cvery good.\u201d I told Cali that I truly wished I could speak Chinese so that I could tell these people that we are the ones who are blessed. That our beautiful Tang Min is so wonderful, and we are the ones who are lucky to have her. I hope sweet Cali understood. I think I caught the hint of a smile as Jason explained what I was saying....\nI took the girls on a riverboat cruise tonight. The last we saw of Christi, she was waving good-bye as we drove away on the tour bus. She left the hotel for the airport shortly after we departed. When we returned from the airport, I found a love note from Christi on the desk in our room. It wasn\u2019t super sappy, but included lines like, \u201cI had to fight the tears,\u201d and \u201cI will miss you. I DO miss you.\u201d One of the most hilarious scenes I have ever seen ensued. Graci picked it up and read it. The three girls then proceeded to do dramatic readings and interpretive dance to this love letter. Over and over again. For at least 15 minutes. In English and Chinese. I was absolutely cracking up. They all HATE the video camera, so I promised them five dollars each if they would let me video them. I\u2019ll try to post it when I get home. Seriously one of the funniest things I have ever seen.\nChristi and I have been missing Christmas out here. There are few decorations. We\u2019ve heard about three carols since we came to China. And the weather is in the 60s. Just doesn\u2019t feel quite right. So we rented Miracle on 34th Street on iTunes and watched it last night. Well, we started it last night around 9:30pm. I couldn\u2019t even make it 45 minutes without crashing, so we finished it this afternoon. What a cheesy, fantastic movie. With all my heart I believe in Santa Claus!\nPrinted on the wrapper of a new toilet paper roll in our hotel in Xi\u2019an:\nYAQI. (Whatever genius decided that \u201cyucky\u201d would be a good brand name for toilet paper needs to be re-enrolled in marketing 101).\nalthough the rose has been given,\nfragrant is still here,\nalthough the time has been gone,\nlove is still here forever.\nOn your toilet paper roll. Romantic! J.\nMissed you on the Pearl River cruise tonight. Thought about you while standing on the open-air top and looking at the amazing neon lights of Guangzhou. I\u2019ve been able to satiate my grape juice fix while here. Wish you could share it with me. See you in Seattle.\nWe have a lot of poignant moments in our lives. Pretty much every day could wipe out someone who was particularly sensitive to these things. One of the more poignant for me has been watching Cali play with Jesi and Grace in our hotel room. Don\u2019t misunderstand, she does fantastic. She gets where she wants to go. She gets up and down from chairs and beds. But in a hotel room, the wheelchair is difficult to maneuver, so it\u2019s easier for her to just ditch it and get around strictly with her arms. Again, she\u2019s able to do this very well, but it breaks your heart to see the effort she has to put in to do what other children can do without a second thought. On the other hand, it has been a delight to see what she can do in her wheelchair. At first, she just let us push her everywhere. Now she asserts herself. If we\u2019re not going quick enough, she tears off at pretty fast speeds. Remember, she\u2019s on wheels. She can go 0-60 a lot faster than this old guy can on his feet. If she sees a small curb, she pops a wheelie so the front wheels clear it, and powers herself up over it. If we\u2019re not adept enough fitting her into tight spaces, she takes control and gets exactly where she wants. She\u2019s awesome!\nSorry we haven\u2019t posted many pictures. We\u2019ve literally spent hours trying to, but the internet connection is pathetic. You\u2019ll get lots next weekend when we get home. Cali is perfect.\nAdoption trips are emotional rollercoasters. We have had all different versions, from the smoothest, fastest rides, to the rickety old wooden coaster that gives you a pounding headache. This one has been fantastic. We feel so lucky to have been led to our sweet Tang Min. She is right for our family and our family is right for her. It\u2019s also an unbelievable experience to be with so many other forever families who have just added their latest bundle of joy. I am humbled to be around so many people who are so good. I am so grateful that God has led Christi and I to this unforeseen but now ever so appreciated calling in our lives. I am so grateful to and for Taylor, Parker, Jessica, Elizabeth, Gracelin, Alexander, Alexis, Sophia, Calais, and Conner.\nLabels: Adoption, Cali\njust wondering if when you get back to america you will get her a new wheelchair. the pictures of the one she has now show a chair that is much heavier and clunkier than it needs to be. check out ti lite http://www.tilite.com/home.php, but also invacare, quickie, and colours. i know from personal experience that the weight and maneuverability of the wheelchair makes a HUGE difference in comfort level. She is using a chair that is too big for her, which could cause her problems with her arms later in life.\nJennifer Green December 17, 2012 at 10:32 AM\nAnd as far as being tired...I had a new mom tell me about new motherhood, \"It's the best tired I've ever been.\" I thought that was a great description!",

It\u2019s beginning to see how money doesn\u2019t have to be either what you require of others or what others require of you, or even about what\u2019s fair and just.\nMoney doesn\u2019t function from fair and just, money functions from the joy of it and the possibility of it. If you start to create the monetary life you have from the kindness and the joy of it, you create then possibility.\nWhat are you looking for with your money? Are you looking to control people?

These tools empower you to change your financial situation with ease and permanence. It is simply a choice. What are you choosing?\nThe Penny Capitalist\nby James J. Hester\nAre you the sort of person who runs out of money on the 25th of every month, has no savings account, and wonders how you\u2019ll ever find the money to get your daughter\u2019s teeth straightened? Then meet James Hester.\nHe and his wife had $70 and a four-year-old Studebaker when they were married in 1955. By 1968 they had a better car, more than their fair share of personal belongings, and $14,000. Then their net worth increased to $300,000. The increase was more than his total salary. They did this while raising three sons and maintaining a comfortable standard of living.\nAmazing? It certainly is. Lucky? Not at all! James Hester followed a plan\u2014and you can use it every bit as effectively as he did.\nOriginally published in 1979, The Penny Capitalist is now held in 236 libraries worldwide.

        "raw_content": "The sound of the cane.\nDark and early at 4am, Cale woke me up because he needed to go to the bathroom. His eyes have been glued shut from the drainage drying, so it\u2019s back to me helping. I don\u2019t have a problem with it, because I am right there to help him (and HATED the days I couldn\u2019t be) and I get to go right back to bed. This morning as I was leading him to the bathroom, Isaiah 42:16 \u201cI will lead the blind by ways they have not known, along unfamiliar paths I will guide them; I will turn the darkness into light before them and make the rough places smooth. These are the things I will do; I will not forsake them\u201d popped in my head. I was smiling as I went over the verse in my head thinking about how so often my eyes are filled with dried drainage (distractions) and I\u2019m blinded by the purpose of having to walk through this time in our life. God so faithfully leads us and makes the rough places smooth for us. It was an encouraging and special picture that was put on my heart at a time that I normally would be snoozing.\nWith thankfulness filling me up, I was able to get Cale settled in the bathroom and then I went to fix the covers on the bed (they always get crazy twisted and fall off the bed!). When I walked back in, I didn\u2019t say anything, I just quietly sat on the floor next to where Cale was. He reached down and put his hand on my head and then after a second, I said something and completely startled Cale! He said, \u201cOh! You\u2019re not the dog!\u201d Hahaha! Uh\u2026not sure what to say? Oh man! I laughed so hard! Then not only was I filled up with refreshment of scripture, but also of laughter with my husband. It was a sweet surprise to have such two beautiful moments!\nI had my first load of laundry in by 6am\u2026so, I didn\u2019t sleep for too long after that time. One of my favorite times of the day (out of many) has become the sound of hearing Cale\u2019s cane come down the hall. We have wood floors so I can hear every step. I rested my head back on the couch this morning just listening with a big grin across my face. It\u2019s such a comforting sound! It reminds me of how far we\u2019ve come through this journey and how the impossible with man has become possible with God. It reminds me that we\u2019re home again and that I still have my husband with me. Before Cale reached the couch, I also had the thought about how one day; the sound silence is going to be what\u2019s comforting. One day, I know he\u2019s not going to need the cane-I know it. It\u2019s getting so close that I wait in anticipation like a child waits for Christmas morning. One day it will just be his steps that bring him to me and NO device! Praise God! I wanted to update on his walking because I\u2019m not sure that I\u2019ve posted recently, Cale has been using ONLY his cane! He hasn\u2019t touched the wheelchair since April 1 and he hasn\u2019t touched his walker since the first week of May!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yeah! In fact, he refuses to use either of them! In some cases it limits us(this is why I never pushed getting to the zoo) because he can\u2019t walk as far or as long, but it\u2019s so exciting to watch his determination take off in this area! Love it!\nCale had Speech again today and did great! I was able to talk with his speech therapist some more about the last session and she said he actually did very well with the ipad! She has gone to an ipad conference and talked about how loaded it is with good stuff for Cale, and today they messed with it some more. I watched for part of it, and man! It\u2019s looking so great! Very exciting to see this too! It\u2019s not anything that he\u2019ll be able to do right away on his own\u2026wait, what am I saying?! He might just surprise me! :) It was a great session and after me getting to sit with the speech therapist and the Rehab Specialist today, I feel so encouraged and ready to take off running with some of our ideas!\nPlease keep praying for\u2026\n\u2026Cale wanting to go home. I wish I could say that I\u2019m not letting it bother me, but it does. It hurts and makes me so sad that he keeps asking. At one point today, after already going over it several times with him, I said, \u201cI have bad news for ya\u2026this is as good as it gets.\u201d It probably wasn\u2019t the best thing to say after my many failed attempts at being encouraging and positive, but, what can I say? Right now I can actually say I\u2019m thankful that 30 minutes later he had totally forgotten the conversation and what was said!\nKristle 6/30/11, 6:28 PM\nI wish I knew the proper words to say, your undying devotion to your husband, and humor in situations that would bring most to tears is inspiring. Aside from God, you are the reason that your husband is doing so well. I pray for you guys all the time, and will continue to do so. I know that God has great plans for you!\nMaybe I am hardhearted, but I don't think that was such a harsh thing to say to Cale. Afterall, Father is with him too, to help deal with things, I mean. Sometimes even a small child needs to hear how what they say makes a person feel. I love you Kathleen, and am proud of you. Father is proud of you, too. Marion",

The scoreboard that really matters today is dictated by the generosity of our industry rather than their skill with bat and ball.\nAt last year\u2019s Big Clash, BackTrack founder and manager Bernie Shakeshaft delivered an emotional presentation about the youth centre he founded in 2006, helping more than 1,000 where vulnerable youth feel emotionally and physically safe, continue their education and pick up valuable life skills and support along the way to help them transition from school into adulthood.\nIt\u2019s a story that inspired AdNews to head up to Armidale in northern NSW to find out more about the operation and how UnLtd funding helps improve young people\u2019s lives.\nBacktrack was set up purely as a youth centre to provide refuge and an escape for disadvantaged youth in New England regional centre that Shakeshaft hails from.\nThe first intake is fondly recalled by Shakeshaft as the \u2018Magnificent Seven\u2019, local teenagers who had either dropped out of school, were at risk of doing so, or worse.\n\u201cThey weren\u2019t really employable,\u201d Shakeshaft says. \u201cThere had been some legal issues, drug and alcohol issues, not really going somewhere in life and not in a direction we like to see in healthy young fellows.\u201d\nThis lack of direction, emotional support and employability is a problem that Shakeshaft, a youth worker of more than 20 years, has observed across the country, including in the outback where he lived and worked for many years.\nExacerbating the issue is a disjointed education and welfare system run by politicians and bureaucrats with little sympathy for young people in situations where schooling and employment are lower priorities than finding refuge from troubled home environments, drug abuse and lifecycles of crime.\n\u201cThe gaps are getting bigger and bigger,\u201d Shakeshaft explains. \u201cI think now they say 26% of kids at high school age have no form of education, training or employment. In the bush it goes up to about 36%. It's a national disgrace that in a first world country a quarter of our kids are doing nothing.\u201d\nShakeshaft realised that to fix the problem would require a lot more support and time than merely sticking young people in training programs.\nHe had to sort out individual lives first, whether that was dealing with legal issues, mental health problems or providing a safehouse.\n\u201cWhen a young person comes into these programs, for the first nine months to a year you would probably spend 50% percent of the time dealing with legal issues, mental health stuff, just trying to get stability,\u201d he adds.\n\u201cSo don't worry about getting a job, that stuff will come later, but if we don't sort out the legal stuff and mental health stuff then nothing else happens\u2026This frustrates government departments, which is one of the reasons we struggle to get funding.\u201d\nThe BackTrack youth centre is located on the outskirts of Armidale. Lives are shaped and rebuilt in this tin shed.\nToday there are about 40 young people who regularly attend BackTrack programs and only 10% to 15% drop out even though BackTrack attendance is purely voluntary. To qualify for a spot, you just need to display the right attitude.\nThere are seven programs, including Ag Lads, which teaches agricultural skills that are useful to pick up work on a farm, such as fencing, lamb marking, wood cutting, tree planting and other jobs.\nIron Welders, one of the longest-running programs, teaches young people to weld sculptures, fences and other items that are then sold to help raise funds (see below). Many of these graduates are working in Armidale.\nPaws Up teaches young people dog jumping and handling competitions. There are also programs that helps students with important numeracy and literacy skills and school coursework, a girls group, as well as a new residence that houses homeless and vulnerable young people \u2013 a program that UnLtd funding help build.\nThe Iron Welders program has 'flooded the market' with welding skills that are often taken on by local businesses.\nBuilding BackTrack has required a huge amount of community support; local businesses chipping in with apprenticeships, funding. The community has also provided plenty of local volunteers to help out with programs and other jobs.\nThe products BackTrack makes, whether its firewood, sculptures and other goods, as well as services, is then sold to raise more money for the youth centre.\nBackTrack has a mutually beneficial relationship with the local community and is well respected.\nIt takes vulnerable local young people off the streets and away from a cycle of crime, provides them with the support and skills they cannot find elsewhere until they are able to contribute to society in a positive way.\n\u201cFrom that month that we started taking those kids out of town every Friday and Saturday night \u2013 crime rates started falling. We've had a downward trend,\u201d Shakeshaft explains.\n\u201cThere's only two local government areas in NSW where juvenile crime stats have trended downwards in recent years. One is Tweed Heads, it's down around 2.5%, while Armidale is down 55% over a long period of time.\n\u201cAbout 87% of the kids we've had through here end up in either full-time jobs or back in full-time education and training. If you were an employment agency you'd probably get bragging rights around the 25% mark, and we are working with the kids that have hit the end of the rope - kicked out of school, nowhere else to go.\u201d\nBackTrack's young welders create amazing sculptures that are then sold to raise funds for the organisation.\nWhy UnLtd funds matter\nOnly a small fraction of BackTrack\u2019s funding comes from the government (mid-2017 it was around 5%), often attached with strict conditions to measure a program\u2019s success. This could how many on the program find a job after a set period of time, for example 26 weeks, irrespective of their life circumstances or the job market.\nThis sort of red tape goes against BackTrack\u2019s mantra of building lives first, irrespective of timelines, and is why the non-profit organisation relies heavily on the support of private donations, such as UnLtd and the local Armidale community.\nWith a team of eight full-time staff, several more part-timers and an expanding operation, BackTrack needs more support to provide it with the flexibility to concentrate on what really matters to young lives.\n\u201cSee, it's not really about getting them job ready. There are three things that we do here,\" Shakeshaft explains.\n\"The first is keeping the kid alive. I've been around enough young suicides to know that, if the kid is not alive, well there's not much else you can do. The second is keeping them out of jail. The third is chasing hopes and dreams.\u201d\nBackTrack\u2019s story in one of several inspirational reasons to attend and support today\u2019s Big Clash.\nSydney Story Factory, founded by Cath Keenan and Tim Dick in 2012, is a not-for-profit creative writing centre that helps marginalised young people improve their written and oral skills.\nMissing School, founded by Megan Gilmour and her son Darcy, keeps seriously ill children stay connected to their schools and makes sure their special learning and social needs are met. More than 60,000 miss school in Australia each year due to serious illness or injury.\nBe Centre is a leading children\u2019s mental health charity that provides Play Therapy for kids. Founded by Deborah Killelea in 2008, it is dedicated to early intervention, stopping cycles of harm and helping children aged 3-12 heal from difficulties and trauma so they can create a brighter future.\nYou can find out more about each of these charities in the links above.

        "raw_content": "When the PICU attending physician came into Noah\u2019s hospital room to tell me our son\u2019s stool had killed dozens of mice at the CDC and wondered if Jason and I were going to \u201cintubate\u201d Noah, put him on life support, I asked the question we are all told NOT to ask, the question that is totally inappropriate, the one question that changes something, or someone, from abstract to absolutely personal\u2026I said, \u201cWould you do if it was your son?\u201d\nYou see, I knew the rules. And they are important. Whether written or not, for people in the medical profession to treat their patients, especially children, they must develop a bit of a tough skin. It\u2019s heart-wrenching to see suffering on a regular basis, no matter the age, especially those on the brink of death.\nAgain, I said, \u201cWould you do if it was your son?\u201d He said, donning full contact precautionary clothing (PPE) which had not been worn up to that point around Noah for the 3 weeks he had been at the hospital\u2026\n\u2026he said, \u201cHell YES, I\u2019d do it! I\u2019d want to know why my kid\u2019s diarrhea killed dozens of mice!!!!\u201d It was what I needed to hear, and it was what took Noah\u2019s treatment from exploratory abstract human with an unknown incurable situation to, \u201cOh my God! This could be MY son\u201d type of treatment.\nAnd so, I have a pre-teen daughter, one hungry for learning, a girl with a huge heart wise beyond her years, and she has access to education, formal and non-traditional, and she eats it up at every opportunity. And there are hundreds of Nigerian parents who also have daughters, a bit older than mine, equally as hungry to learn and to be challenged, to grow and learn, to aspire to callings such as doctor, teacher, mother, lawyer, pastor, advocate, farmer, community leader, whatever, and their hearts are wrecked!\nAnd they are saying, crying out the unacceptable, \u201cinappropriate\u201d question, the one we all avoid as to maintain a thick skin, \u201cWhat would you do if it was your daughter?\u201d Because then we\u2019d have to stop our modus operandi and personalize these stories\u2026we\u2019d have to feel.\nWe would have to feel.\nBut I think in America we are so numbed to pain and fear and conflict, we try to avoid it at all cost.\nAnd have we stopped feeling? Just because we live an ocean away doesn\u2019t mean we cannot both feel and make a difference. Stop and PRAY wherever you are. That is something.\nI read a parenting book that is no longer in print about the 10 greatest gifts you can give your children. The only one I remember is to teach them this question, \u201cHow would that make you feel?\u201d It imparts empathy and selflessness and an awareness or at least an awakening that we don\u2019t live in bubbles and are not meant to avoid pain and conflict and heartache, but we were designed to enter into with others so they aren\u2019t crushed entirely under the weight of it all.\nWe cannot single-handedly save the world from heartache, that\u2019s a Divine job, but we can ask ourselves, \u201cHow would that make me feel?\u201d and then love as best as we know how.\nAnd my answer, like the PICU attending physician is, \u201cHell YES! I\u2019ll help you get your daughters back!\u201d\n#BringBackOurDaughters #NigerianSchoolGirls\nFiled Under: #intention, #killingmonsters, raising kids, Remembering Noah, sex trafficking // Tagged: #BringBackOurGirls, #intention, #NigerianSchoolGirls, Daughters\nAn Open Letter\u2026to Everyone: My High School Do-Over\n(*This isn\u2019t a passive-aggressive \u201copen letter\u201d, rant-style, where I go off on your sucky behavior as a human, as it affects me or my people, but rather my own confession.)\nThis past weekend I was curious. After several years on Facebook reconnecting with old friends and making new ones, I thought it would be fun to look through the yearbook from my senior year of high school and see if I recognized people, because I barely recognize myself. I headed to the seniors and went from Z to A. There were a couple of things that stood out to me, the first being the abundant use of hairspray (and obvious reason for global warming) and, our amazing bangs. Bang height and even wings took work, people, so before you mock it, know we worked hard for height that stayed throughout the day.\nBut what stood out to me even more than bangs, as I turned page after page, was NOT recognizing the faces of old friends or classmates, but that there was, ON EVERY SINGLE PAGE throughout our senior class, one or more students with special needs. And I recognized every one of them.\nThis is where the \u201copen letter\u201d part comes in, not because I was awesome and recognized them or because we were all best friends, but because looking back, as I slowly turned each page and looked into every face, I didn\u2019t know their names. I\u2019m so sorry I didn\u2019t know their names. So I read each of their names out loud, because I wanted to hear them in my ears, on my tongue, in my heart\u2026because they were also God\u2019s gifts to creation.\nYou see, I never teased \u201cthem\u201d, made fun of \u201cthem\u201d with others, or looked at \u201cthem\u201d as anyone less\u2026my parents always taught us to treat others the way we wanted to be treated. I saw them at lunch, school assemblies, in between classes walking or rolling in a line to the furthermost corner of campus to their classrooms, but I didn\u2019t join \u201cthem\u201d at the \u201cBuddy Club\u201d and I never took the time to know \u201cthem\u201d so that \u201cthem\u201d was rather \u201cus.\u201d\nI\u2019m not sure I knew HOW to. I smiled and waved when I mustered strength out of my own high school insecurity. I didn\u2019t care if others saw me smiling at them, but at the time, I did care more about the opinions of others as a general theme rather than believing God\u2019s truth about me\u2026and for that, too, I apologize.\nI\u2019ll be honest. Except for one year in Michigan, high school was awkward for me. This is NOT an excuse, it\u2019s just that looking back, even though I was captain of the swim team and played basketball and knew a lot of kids, I never really felt like I was part of any one group of people.\nAs I looked through the pages of my 1990 yearbook, awesome memories of good times did not flood me. I did have fun, but I know from experience, \u201cfun\u201d isn\u2019t the goal. What did overwhelm me was the idea of what a high school do-over would look like, if you paid me to go back there\u2026\nI would have joined Theater because, let\u2019s be honest, my drama could have been put to better use.\nI would have actually gone to my Guidance Counselor for more than just a class schedule.\nI would have read all the books required for English Lit rather than winging it.\nI would have skipped Math since my husband knows enough for both of us.\nI would have baked cookies for the Facilities Crew.\nI totally would have taken Shop, Metals, Wood, and Automotives.\nI would have taken Art and then joined the Home Ec club so that today I\u2019d have a wicked Etsy site.\nI would have been on Student Council, but they didn\u2019t vote me in\u2026but since this is my do-over, I would have won and hopefully made a difference.\nI would have asked my friend more about his Indian culture and upbringing, and joined \u201cCHANT\u201d to educate myself about those who were here before me.\nI would have taken showers in the locker room after PE, because that was about hygiene, not body insecurity or comparison.\nI totally would have joined the student Newspaper staff and honed my skills as a writer, interviewer, and reporter.\nI would have joined the Band and played the saxophone, because it\u2019s jazzy.\nI would have been part of the Chess Club because there are permanent chess tables in parks.\nI FOR SURE would have been on the Speech and Debate team because it would have prepared me for real life challenges, opened my eyes to other people\u2019s ideas, and taught me how to communicate publicly with confidence.\nAnd, I would have joined the Buddy Club, the club on campus where friendships were formed with the students in Special Education, and, apparently, there were no stereotypes and everyone was welcome. If only this had been the ONLY club, we would have all been the better for it.\nBut I didn\u2019t do any of the above things. And THANK GOD I don\u2019t get a high school do-over.\nLike I said, I barely recognize myself from back then, not only physically (I\u2019m STRONGER), but spiritually, emotionally, and as an overall human. I\u2019m definitely smarter than I was because I recognize that even though I wasn\u2019t part of a lot of clubs, they all held value, and I trust that at the heart of the teaching sponsors, their purpose was to instill value and purpose.\nI don\u2019t regret being in sports because I learned a lot about working as a team and the art of collaboration, but I do regret not being mindful, purposeful, and intentional as a friend, of the many beautiful faces which graced each page of the senior pictures, the Special Education students who weren\u2019t looking for my approval or acceptance, but who likely had so very much to teach me about love, friendship, and the art of acceptance.\nI\u2019m sorry I never took the time to know your names\u2026I\u2019m truly very sorry.\nI can\u2019t go back, but I can move forward.\nIf you have influence in the life of a school-age student, don\u2019t encourage them to be part of what is popular. Encourage them to do what they are gifted in, be part of what matters, help build worth in others, and especially to do hard things.\nLet\u2019s be strong together\u2026because strong people build each other up. No exceptions. No exceptions.\nIf you are the parent or family member or friend of a child with special needs, I am sorry I wasn\u2019t in the Buddy Club. Please forgive me for my ignorance and not reaching out back then. The loss of my son, who had so many special needs no one could even figure them out, first opened my eyes to this on a deeply profound level, but seeing the kids in my yearbook who were separated from the \u201cmainstream\u201d kids breaks my heart and only makes me more aware of our need to stop segregating all of our stereotypes and start collaborating for one another.\nIf you are someone who has had no interaction with a person who has special needs, don\u2019t be afraid and don\u2019t beat yourself up about the past. You may not understand all the specifics, but special needs look like many different things and comes in countless beautiful packages. Our lives will be richer for not only knowing a face, but for learning the name behind it.\nFiled Under: #intention, #treasure, celebrate life, Children with Disabilities, Loveolution, raising kids, Special Needs, Uncategorized, vulnerability // Tagged: #treasure, Authenticity\nWalking, Part 2\nMy mom\u2019s not a huge fan of crowds but she wanted to do this walk.

        "raw_content": "It is holiday season and it is time to get planning. When we plan a holiday, there are plenty of things on our mind. There\u2019s the location, which is arguably one of the most important components to a successful holiday, but then there are additional considerations such as the length of time, who we take, how much money to take, and what we\u2019ll go to see. In short, planning a holiday can be a lengthy task and there\u2019s no short way around it outside of getting an overpriced packaged holiday complete with tours and hotels.\nWhile those packaged holidays are fantastic, they\u2019re also very strict because you don\u2019t have much time to explore and experience things on your own. Holidays are all about experiencing something new and relaxing. Whether it\u2019s chilling on a sandy beach with crystal clear waters and a blazing sun, relaxing on a cruise ship in the middle of the Pacific Ocean or partying in nightclubs, it\u2019s important to focus on the overall experience when attempting to plan a holiday.\nHowever, not all of us have the time or money to plan expensive long-term holidays that last for weeks or more. If you want a short break to experience something amazing, outrageous or fresh, then here are a couple of fantastic ideas that you can play with and tweak to your own liking.\nIf you\u2019re willing to spend a little more cash on your holiday, then why not check out a cruise holiday on Love it Book it? Cruises are fantastic all-included holidays that are filled with entertainment, culture and experiences. There\u2019s plenty of shopping to be done, lots of vibrant nightlife, plenty of cruise ship activities, and some cruises even stop off at islands so that people can experience the local wildlife, sights and sounds. It goes without saying that a cruise holiday is the perfect short experience to indulge yourself in, and you can always bring along friends for the ride.\nBrief food journey\nThere are people all over the world that travel for one thing: food. They want to sample delicious treats from all over the world and taste cultural cuisines straight from the country that invented them. Want authentic noodles? Then head to China and explore the numerous restaurants and street food stalls. Do you love sushi? Then there\u2019s no place other than Japan to head to for the freshest seafood and fish. Interested in sausages? Head to Germany and sample all the different varieties of wurst they have on offer. Just remember to come with an empty stomach and a considerable amount of money!\nIf there\u2019s a concert going on for your favourite artist or a show that you really want to see, then why not plan the ultimate night out and go with a couple of friends or family members to attend it? It could be something massive like a rave party or an outdoor clubbing night, it could be a sports game final that you really want to watch, or it could be something a little smaller like your favourite indie artist doing a gig in a club or an author you like who\u2019s doing signings. Whatever it is, going on holiday for the purpose of attending an event is nothing new and it\u2019s a fantastic excuse to also learn more about that country, sample their food, and pique your curiosity as you explore.\nIf you love the idea of an all-included holiday but don\u2019t enjoy the feeling of being out on the sea, then why not consider a rail holiday? You\u2019ll get to see some beautiful scenery as opposed to just water on a cruise, and trains are wonderful historical machines with lots of fun services. You\u2019ll make regular stops at different cities and you can go shopping in various different locations. There are iconic trips that will take you across entire continents, and shorter ones that will take you up and down the country if you prefer something closer to home. It\u2019s a fantastic choice for people who want a relaxing holiday but still want to see plenty of wondrous sights and natural beauty.\nExtreme sports activities\nFeeling adventurous? Then why not consider an extreme sports holiday. Be it mountain climbing in China, skydiving in Dubai or mountain biking in the Alps, there are thousands of extreme sports holiday ideas for those of us who love a thrill. If the idea of sitting indoors and soaking up the culture and sights is boring to you, then you\u2019ll love the various different sports and activities you can get involved with in other countries.\nWhat kind of holidays do you like?\nLabels: Holiday, Lifestyle, Travel",

        "raw_content": "5 Tips For Motivating Millennials\nIf you employ Millennials you know they can be a different kind of worker. They don\u2019t like rules, want their bosses to treat them as friends, loathe to part with their phones and want flexible work arrangements. Tim Eisenhauer, president and cofounder of the social business software platform Axero Solutions, sees the flip side: Millennials want to make a difference, which makes them ideal employees. Here\u2019s his advice on motivating younger employees to do their best work.\nGive them access to everyone.\nIn other words, they do better in flatter organizations where they can bounce an idea off the CEO or get an answer to a question the minute it occurs to them. Think about it\u2013for their whole lives Millennials have been able to Google anything and get information immediately. \u201cThey want that same access inside the workplace,\u201d Eisenhauer says. Asking them to maneuver company hierarchy is maddening for younger people.\nMake sure they understand you\u2019re listening to them.\n\u201cThey want to know that they can contribute ideas. They want to know that they\u2019ll be heard. They want to know that their contributions matter, and often they want it their way,\u201d he says. \u201cAnd I think, well, why not?\u201d\nDon\u2019t expect them to solve problems your way.\nThey\u2019re great with technology, for one thing. So, if you cut them loose to figure something out they may do it faster and more creatively than your usual methods. \u201cThey\u2019ll probably surprise you,\u201d he says.\nLet them choose how and when they want to work.\nIf they want to bang out a pile of work in the evening when they\u2019re feeling creative or inspired what sense does it make to chain them to a desk from 9 to 5? \u201cIf people are doing their jobs and getting their projects completed, that\u2019s really what matters\u2013performance,\u201d he says. \u201cWe don\u2019t have set work hours, we don\u2019t keep track of work hours. Once you start doing that I think people try to game the system.\u201d\nGive them room to be social.\nYou\u2019d expect this advice since Axero\u2019s platform is geared for internal collaborations and communications as well as knowledge management, but as another CEO recently pointed out, they\u2019re never going to stop looking at their phones. \u201cFrom my experience in working with Millennials, it\u2019s no longer about work-life [balance]. It\u2019s just life,\u201d he says. \u201cThey\u2019re always connected.\u201d\nContributor, Inc.com@salubriousdish\nBy Clay Skurdal|2015-01-30T05:05:34+00:00January 30th, 2015|Categories: Uncategorized|0 Comments",

        "raw_content": "M/S Dulari Exports Ltd & Ors. Vs. H.S.I.D.C. Ltd. & Ors. [2009] INSC 1228 (16 July 2009)\nIN THE SUPREME COURT OF INDIA CIVIL APPELLATE JURISDICTION REVIEW PETITION NO.1079 OF 2008 IN CIVIL APPEAL NO. 4130 OF 2008 Versus ORDER S.B. Sinha, J.\n1. This petition has been filed for review of our judgment and order dated 16th May, 2008.\n2. The instant case is one of those cases wherein it was opined that it was difficult to uphold the order of the High Court, but having regard to the general offer made by the learned Additional Solicitor General to the effect 2 that those who intended to obtain re-allotment of plot may do so on payment of the price as per the current rate as on the date of the order of the High Court. The appeal filed by the Corporation was disposed of on the above terms.\n1. 3 Mr. Puneet Bali, the learned counsel appearing on behalf of the Review-Petitioners would contend that this Court has proceeded on a wrong premise that the Corporation had in fact directed resumption of the allotted plot. It was contended that the Corporation never directed any resumption owing to alleged non-compliance of the conditions of grant in regard to completion of construction of the factory premises within the prescribed period. In this connection, our attention has been drawn to various orders passed by the concerned authorities including the appellate authority and the High Court\n3. Our attention has furthermore been drawn to certain factual errors purported to have been committed by this Court while noticing the facts of the matter.\nWe may, therefore, place on record the facts as stated before us by Mr. Bali so far as the same are relevant.\n3 The Review-Petitioners had paid four installments. They did not pay the fifth installment within the prescribed time. They submitted a demand draft of Rs.19,00,253/- towards fifth installment. The Corporation by a letter dated 30th January, 2004 referring to its earlier order dated 1st January 2004 by which a show cause notice was issued to it on account of non commencement of construction within the stipulated period as also the subsequent reply of the petitioners dated 9th January 2004, stated:- \"In this regard, I am again directed to inform you that as per terms and conditions of allotment, you were required to start construction of factory building within a period of one year and six months from the date of offer of possession, but you have not started the same even after lapse of more than two years and six months.\nIn view of the above, the reply submitted by you is not satisfactory and plot has become liable for resumption and as such the demand drafts submitted by you have not yet been accepted. On account of above violations though the plot has become liable for resumption, however, before resuming the plot, the Corporation has decided to give you an opportunity of retaining the plot at the current price of Rs.2200/- per square meter. In case you are interested in retaining the plot at current price of Rs.2200/- per square meter, you are advised to convey your acceptance, within a period of 15 days from the date of issue of this letter, failing which the plot will be resumed without any further notice in this regard.\"\n4. 4 The Review-Petitioners did not accept the said offer. It filed objections thereto. By an order dated 27th June, 2005, the said objections were rejected, stating:\n\" The objections filed by you have been duly considered, wherein you have neither disputed the starting of construction over plot in question within the stipulated period, as one of the conditions of allotment, failure whereof renders the plot liable to be resumed nor explained any reasons justifying your failure to comply with the said condition. Hence the objections filed by you have no merit and hereby rejected. Accordingly a cheque dated 15.6.2005 for Rs.8155203/- drawn on State Bank of India, Industrial area branch, Panchkula is being sent to you on account of refund of the amount deposited by you after deductions as per terms and conditions of allotment. Further, the demand drafts in original bearing Nos. 204383 for Rs.900000/-; 204384 for Rs.900000/- & 204385 for Rs.100253/-, all dated 9.1.2004 and Drawn on Indian Overseas bank are also returned to you, which you were deposited with the Corporation towards 5th installment of the cost of plot. You are requested to hand over the vacant possession of the plot to Estate Manager, IMT, Manesar within a period of 30 days.\"\n5. An appeal was preferred thereagainst and the Appellate Authority was of the opinion that it was merely a proposal for resumption and not an order of resumption itself.\n5. The learned counsel would contend that it is on the aforementioned premise he filed a writ petition before the High Court which was allowed by an order dated 8th May 2006. It was urged that the Review Petitioners during the pendency of the writ petition had not only completed the construction of the factory but also commenced commercial production, this Court should not have equated the case of their with those of others. Mr. Bali pointed out that the current rate on which the Review- Petitioners were required to deposit is Rs.4,000/- per square meter, but it has all along been and still is ready and willing to pay Rs.2,200/- per square meters as demanded of them earlier by the Corporation.\n6. Before embarking on the issue raised before us, we may place on record that the learned counsel appearing on behalf of the Review- Petitioners at the initial stage of the hearing like others made an offer that he would pay the amount calculated at the market rate as prevailing on the date of delivery of the judgment by the High Court but on the next day they turned back therefrom. A prayer was made to recall that order, which was allowed and the appeal was heard on merits.\n7. It may be true that the Corporation did not expressly use the words `resumption of the plot' but in effect and substance it must be held to have 6 done so. In its purported so-called proposal for resumption, the Corporation categorically stated that despite the fact that it violated the conditions of allotment, it was free to offer the current price for regularization of the allotment at the rate of Rs.2,200/- per square meter. Acceptance of such an offer was valid only for a period of 15 days from the date of issue of the suit notice. No offer was made within the stipulated period. In fact, Review- Petitioners objected thereto. Evidently, on the premise that they had complied with the terms and conditions of the letter of allotment, they filed objections. The said objections were not only rejected but the Review- Petitioners were directed to handover possession. Possession can be directed to be handed over only on resumption of plot. There cannot, therefore, any doubt whatsoever that the Corporation had in effect and substance directed resumption of the plot allotted to the Review-Petitioners.\nBe that as it may, it was stated before us that during the pendency of the writ petition, the Review-Petitioners had not only completed the construction but also started commercial production, but this Court while considering the legality or otherwise of the order passed by the High Court was entitled to consider the issue keeping in view the initial order passed by the Corporation. Any subsequent event might have been a relevant fact for the purpose of passing equitable orders, but the same by itself would not be 7 a ground to revive the offer of the appellant to pay Rs.2,200/- per square meter although it failed and/or neglected to do so within the stipulated period.\n8. We may, however, before parting, place on record that Mr. Bali contended that the requisite amount had been tendered to the Corporation but the same had been returned on the ground of pendency of the review application. If that be so, in the event, the Review-Petitioners tender the requisite amount to the Corporation within a period of seven days from date, the same shall be accepted without any demur whatsoever.\n9. We, therefore, are of the opinion that the application for review on merit must be dismissed. The Review Petition is dismissed accordingly with costs payable to the Corporation. Counsel's fee is assessed at Rs.1,00,000/- (Rupees One Lakh only).\n......................................J. [S.B. Sinha]\n......................................J. [V.S. Sirpurkar]",

E. Rozeboom\nThis guide to the identification of the adults of the anopheline mosquitoes of Indonesia, which apparently was prepared by W. J. Stoker and R. Waktoedi Koesoemawinangoen, is not set up as a conventional dichotomous key but is a list of species, each of which is accompanied by notes on the principal taxonomic characters and by diagrammatic illustrations of the palpi, proboscis, wing, hind leg and occasionally of other pertinent recognition characters. Notes on breeding habits and relation to malaria are included. The arrangement of the species is not entirely in phylogenetic order, but the species and subspecies are grouped in accordance with their similarity in appearance so that a person using the guide in identifying material can make comparisons easily. Seventy-six species and subspecies are considered. This reviewer does not agree with all the authors&apos; interpretations regarding specific and subspecific status, and the fact that there is still basis for disagreement among taxonomists shows that much interesting research remains to be done in these anophelines with their insular distributions, especially if approached from the point of view of the \u201cnew systematics.\u201d",

        "title": "Franking Sand Production FAQ's| All Energy Sand",
        "raw_content": "Q: What is \u201cfracking\u201d and \u201cfrac sand?\u201d\nA: \u201cFracking\u201d is short for \u201chydraulic fracturing.\u201d It\u2019s a practice that involves suspending specialized sand in fluid and injecting it into oil and gas wells under high pressure. The fluid pressure creates new fractures in the well which opens and enlarges existing fractures that allow access to previously unreachable oil and gas reserves. Sand grains in the fluid (known as frac sands) are deposited in these fractures and prop them open after the water is pumped out. Fracking has been shown to increase the production of an oil or natural gas well by 50% or more, which contributes greatly to goal of American energy independence.\nQ: Will sand mining have an environmental impact?\nA: Yes, but every human enterprise has some environmental impact. Among the environmental impacts frac sand operations try to minimize are:\nEffects from truck traffic \u2014 trucking sand from the mining site to a processing center can create noise, traffic that deteriorates roadways, and vehicle emissions. AllEnergy Sand has completely removed this environmental impact. Our operation will use a conveyor belt, not trucks, to move raw material from mine to processing center. (Learn more about our lower-carbon-footprint approach here.)\nNoise \u2014 It\u2019s impossible to operate a mine without machinery operation noise and perhaps some small blasting. AllEnergy Sand has removed the noise of a truck fleet, however. We anticipate the noise of our operation will be minimal, especially when compared to other industrial activities.\nWater Use \u2014 Frac sand processing uses about 2 million gallons of water to wash the sand, the vast majority of which is recycled throughout the day. A typical frac sand processing plant actually consumes about 18,000 gallons of water a day. As a comparison, a large-scale dairy uses about 20,000 to 50,000 gallons of water a day, depending upon the weather. A center-pivot irrigation system can use nearly 250,000 gallons of water in a day. Compared to other industries, fracking\u2019s water consumption is relatively low.\nQ: Can sand mines be reclaimed into other uses?\nA: Yes. Mines can and are reclaimed as agricultural land. Studies show such areas can reach 73-97% of original yields within three years of reclamation. They can also be reclaimed as natural areas.\nQ: Does sand mining produce acid mine drainage?\nQ: Is frac sand mining a danger to the water table?\nA: No. Typically, frac sand operations mine to within five feet above the water table.\nQ: Is there a danger that the process of fracking can contaminate underground water supplies?\nA: No, not when standard safeguards are followed. Fracking often involves deep drilling, 10,000 to 15,000 feet deep. That\u2019s far below the aquifer, which is typically at about 300 feet. Before fracking starts, a steel pipe encased in cement is laid through the well. The system ensures that hydraulic fracturing only happens at the target area, not at other points along the long well bore. The fracking mixture (water and sand), as well as the released oil or natural gas, are sucked back up through the pipe, filtered and stored in tanks. Some of the frac sand stays in the well propping open the fractures. Some of the liquid is reused and some is disposed of at regulated disposal centers.\nQ: Does frac sand mining increase the incidence of silicosis?\nA: There is no scientifically proven evidence that it does. Silicosis a disabling, often fatal, lung disease caused by breathing dust with very small particles of respirable crystalline silica. Silicosis is definitely an occupational risk for mine workers, which is why AllEnergy Sand employees will have all the proper, OSHA-approved safety equipment at all times and follow best practices for safety, just as workers in other dusty industries such as coal mining and grain handling do.\nBut there is no evidence that frac sand mining or fracking itself cause an increase public risk for silicosis or any other respiratory issue. A rash of class action cases filed between 2004 and 2006 that claimed fracking increased silicosis were each dismissed for lack of evidence.\nThe U.S. Environmental Protection Agency ranks the cause for crystalline silica emissions:\nMining and quarrying \u2013 1%\nWind erosion \u2013 10%\nDriving unpaved roads \u2013 33%\nDriving paved roads 18%\nConstruction \u2013 23%\nAgricultural tillage \u2013 15%\nQ: Besides fracking, what is silica used for?\nA: Silica is another name for sand, and sand is one of the most common substances on earth. It\u2019s used for:\nCeramics and Refractories\nSilica is even used as an inactive ingredient in some drugs.\nQ: Does fracking really have a net positive impact on energy production?\nA: Yes. Fracking can increase the production of an oil and natural gas well by up to 50%, especially in deeper shale deposits that are difficult to access using traditional drilling methods. In 2000, such shale beds provided just 1% of America\u2019s natural gas supply. Today, that figure stands at nearly 25% primarily due to the use of fracking.\nQ: Is fracking new?\nA: No. Hydraulic fracturing technology has been used in the United States since 1947. More than 1.2 million oil and natural gas wells have undergone fracture stimulation since the technology was first introduced in Kansas. Its use has become more prevalent as the market price, cost to produce and available supply of oil and gas has made fracking a more economically viable option.\nQ: Is fracking the answer to America\u2019s energy concerns?\nA: Not the entire answer, but a significant part of it. Achieving American energy independence will require contributions from many fuel sources including oil, natural gas, biofuels, solar, wind and emerging technologies, along with improvements in energy conservation and efficiency.\nQ: What areas do you provide service to? In other words, what does your service area cover?\nA: We take pride in our product and we want as many people to have access to it as possible, and a large service area means a far reach. Our service area covers all of North America, but because we use railroads to transport our frac and silica sand, the states we have the easiest access to include Ohio, Texas, North Dakota, Iowa, Wisconsin, and Montana. We also reach into Canada. The reason we use the railroads is because it increases efficiency, reduces per-ton costs, and eliminates delays and extra expenses caused by adverse winter road conditions. It also lessens our carbon emissions and noise pollution because we don\u2019t use a fleet of trucks.",

In the question of property, the same issue appears with AI and not robots. But here, the question is about belongings under any form. The unprecedented speed of AI such as in the excellent film \"Her\" could result in a complete distortion of the markets with a drastic increase of virtual belongings prices. Thus, real world belongings would not be as valuable as they were until the arrival of AI in the property holders field.

        "title": "The Soul of a Chef: The Journey Towards Perfection by Michael Ruhlman | Amber Stults - Book Reviewer and Writer",
        "raw_content": "The Soul of a Chef: The Journey Towards Perfection by Michael Ruhlman\nThis is the first Michael Ruhlman book I\u2019ve read. Since it is one of his early efforts I found a clumsy sentence here or there that brought me out of the life of a chef but the conversational tone and explanations was able to pull me back in. My introduction to Ruhlman (and Michael Symon) was the Cleveland episode of Anthony Bourdain\u2019s tv show No Reservations. Ruhlman has written many books (memoirs, cookbooks, and non-fiction) since this one was published. I plan on reading more of his books.\nThis book has three parts and an epilogue. The first part is about the certified master chef exam. The second part is about Lola, Michael Symon\u2019s first restaurant. (Since the book was written, Lola has moved to another Cleveland location and Lolita now resides in the original Lola space.) The third part is about the French Laundry and Thomas Keller. The epilogue is Ruhlman\u2019s ruminations on the entire experience. As a bonus, there is an Appendix with recipes from some of the chefs featured in the book.\nPart I: Certified Master Chef Exam (Or the Objective Truth of Great Cooking)\nIf you have ever seen Bravo\u2019s Top Chef with it\u2019s quickfire challenges and judges table then you have a small taste of what the Certified Master Chef Exam is like. But imagine paying thousands of dollars for ten days of classes and tests with no guarantee that you will make it beyond the first day and there is no guarantee you will receive the certification that many in your industry look down upon. Each candidate is given a list ahead of time of the equipment and kitchen staples. They attend classes in the mornings and then get the afternoon and evenings to prepare for their exams. Each exam covers the use of the knowledge imparted during the lecture, execution of cooking methods, food combinations, and so forth. Brian Polcyn is one of the chefs featured in this section.\nPart II: Lola\nI\u2019m sure no one predicted during the writing of The Soul of a Chef that Michael Symon would become a Food Network star. He is currently one of the American Iron Chefs and the host of Dinner Impossible. (Note: It was recently announced that Robert Levine will return to hosting the show and Michael Symon has two shows currently in the works at the network.) This chapter is basically a profile on what can make a successful restaurant. These ingredients include (1) good food, (2) a personable chef, (3) dedicated staff and (4) high expectations from everyone involved in the restaurant. Symon was just named one of the 10 Best New Chefs for 1998 in Food & Wine when Ruhlman decided he needed to spend some extended time at Lola to see if he could pinpoint why it was going so well for Symon.\nPart III: Journey Toward Perfection\nThrough a mutual acquaintance, Ruhlman is introduced to Thomas Keller and eventually co-writes a cookbook with him (and Polcyn from the first section). During his time with Keller, Ruhlman meets with Keller in California and Ohio. They discuss not only food but the philosophy behind what makes a good food experience. After all, someone can have a perfectly executed meal that still falls flat on flavors and vice versa.\nThe epilogue is really a summary of the time Ruhlman spends with these chefs. At the heart of this experience is a conversation between Ruhlman and Keller. It is the one of the points Bill Buford was trying to get across with his book Heat; we\u2019re becoming a nation of non-cooks. And it\u2019s true. Recently a recipe I was given called for grated nutmeg. When faced with a whole nutmeg I could not identify it on sight and had to ask if the whole thing gets grated or should it be broken open and then grated? And I realized the other day I\u2019ve never made macaroni and cheese that did not originate from a box.\nLeona Raisin said,\nNoticed you mentioned Anthony Bourdain in your post.If Anthony Bourdain did this TV anagram game he\u2019d have a [lethal nerve chant]. I just posted this one on my blog yesterday.\nAnagrams are fun!\nI\u2019m so glad you reviewed this book! I read it last year after reading The Making of a Chef. Next year I plan to read The Reach of a Chef. The first book by Ruhlman I read was House: A Memoir. I thought it was so well-written that I bought the three \u201cChef\u201d books to read. I also hope to read Wooden Boats in the near future, and would like to get The Elements of Cooking, said to be a sort of culinary Elements of Style.\nThanks for stopping by, Laura. I am amazed at Michael Ruhlman\u2019s interests. His books cover a variety of subjects. The Restaurant Widow (www.restaurantwidow.com) seemed to like The Elements of Cooking, if I recall correctly.\n[\u2026] (Holidays on Ice)87. Luanne ( The Customer is Always Wrong)88.

        "raw_content": "What is Aphelion\nI recently posted this in my own blog, and thought I would share it here for anyone who was interested in how I present the zine to people:\nAphelion is an original fiction fanzine that has been published on the web since 1997. It was started by Dan Hollifield when the webzine he'd been contributing to went dark, and has been published mostly monthly ever since. I have been involved with the technical direction of Aphelion since it's inception, have written semi-regularly for it, served a tenure as the Serials editor, and currently serve as its Features editor. Aphelion is entirely fan-run and self-funded. Because it is unable to be a paying market, it also has no advertising nor requires any subscription.\nWhat kinds of things will I find there?\nAphelion publishes original science-fiction, fantasy, and horror, along with poetry and filk lyrics and non-fiction articles and essays of interest to its principle audience. In an average issue, you will find 2-3 pieces of long fiction, a dozen or so short stories, 6-10 poems, and a couple of book reviews, film reviews, essays or other non-fiction material.\nLike many fan-produced periodicals, deadlines tend to be honoured more in the breach than the observance, but the new issue generally hits the net sometime around the first Sunday of the month. It is rarely as late as the second Sunday of the month. Currently, Aphelion publishes 11 issues a year. There is no new issue in January, but Feburary features the editors choices of the best of the previous year.\nLivejournal users can be alerted to new issues at aphelionfeed, or you can subscribe to our RSS feed with your favourite RSS reader.\nSo what is it for?\nThe primary purpose of the zine is to give writers a chance to flex their imaginations, put their work in front of an audience, and hopefully get feedback from the sort of people who read and write the kinds of stories they want to produce. There is a forum where we encourage people to comment on the stories and features in that month's issue, and try to foster a dialogue between the writers and their readers (most of whom tend to be fellow writers). It is the fondest wish of Aphelion's editors to lose their best contributors to paying markets\nSo please drop by and give it a look. And if you read something that you like - or something that you didn't - drop by the forum and leave a comment. Everyone who puts their stuff on the line there wants to hear from you.\nFebruary 24, 2018, 10:23:30 AM by TaoPhoenix\nRe: What is Aphelion\n... And to me, Aphelion has outlasted thousands of shorter lived ventures!\nIt is one of exactly two long running sites I have stayed in affiliation with, the other being DonationCoder.com\n(And both communities might be a good cross match! And they too just went through a major difficult time!)\nAnd that powerful longevity, for me as one among many, created its own second meaning - wan years or waxing, let us try twice more to reaffirm the vision!\nI have not read much fiction lately, SciFi or otherwise. But this is a year about meaning, and I look forward to churning some energy to our submissions with a new light!",

        "title": "Why is the 1998 Adana pact between Turkey and Syria back in the news? | Arab News",
        "raw_content": "Why is the 1998 Adana pact between Turkey and Syria back in the news?\nThe Adana agreement, signed by Turkey and Syria on Oct. 20, 1998, was the most critical issue on the agenda during the meeting between Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and Russian President Vladimir Putin on Jan. 23.\nBoth leaders mentioned the deal during their joint press conference. Putin highlighted the fact that the 20-year-old agreement between Ankara and Damascus is still binding, while Erdogan stressed its importance and said that Turkey would be keeping it on its agenda. This was the first meeting of the two leaders since the announcement of the decision by the US to withdraw its troops from Syria. Therefore, their talks were already important \u2014 and raising the issue of the Adana agreement made them even more so.\nWhat is this 1998 agreement and why is it back on the agenda after seven years of conflict in Syria? The Adana agreement was signed at a time when relations between Turkey and Syria were strained and the neighbors were on the brink of war. Damascus had been allowing Abdullah Ocalan, the leader of the Kurdistan Workers\u2019 Party (PKK) \u2014 who is now serving a life sentence on the Turkish island of Imrali \u2014 to take shelter and direct the activities of the terrorist organization from within its borders for several years. When Turkey threatened military action, Damascus deported Ocalan and closed the PKK camps in the country.\nThe Adana agreement was designed to help restore bilateral relations. It was eventually concluded after Iranian Foreign Minister Kemal Harrazi and Egyptian Foreign Minister Amr Moussa intervened on behalf of their presidents. Some described the deal as a Turkish-Syrian version of the Camp David agreement signed by Egypt and Israel.\nThe provisions of the agreement clear a legal path for Turkey to take action in Syria, with the full approval of Russia.\nSyria\u2019s decision to expel Ocalan and negotiate with Turkey was linked to its concern about the strength of the Turkish military in the face of its own weakness. A few years later, however, Syrian President Bashar Assad said during an interview that \u201cthe deportation of Ocalan was not out of fear but because we preferred you. We could either be friends with the Turkish people or prefer the Kurds and lose you. Because our preference was with you, we sent Ocalan out.\u201d\nWith the signing of the agreement, Syria recognized the PKK as a terrorist organization and pledged not to provide it with any kind of support \u2014 financial, logistic or military. Until 2011, Turkey greatly benefited from the agreement in its fight against the PKK. However, when the civil war erupted in Syria, Assad was inclined to play the PKK card against Turkey once again, because his neighbor to the north had taken a stern attitude and criticized him.\nArticle 1 of the Adana agreement states: \u201cSyria, on the basis of the principle of reciprocity, will not permit any activity that emanates from its territory aimed at jeopardizing the security and stability of Turkey.\u201d However, several reports during the war suggested that Syria had given the PKK free rein on its soil, and even that the Syrian security services had assassinated moderate Kurdish politicians to clear the way for the PKK to reassert itself in Kurdish regions.\nTurkey now faces a serious threat emanating from Syria due to the activities of the People\u2019s Protection Units (YPG), the Syrian offshoot of the PKK. Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu said: \u201cWe think he (Putin) referred to this protocol, implying that Turkey can intervene in (Syria). And this is positive for us.\u201d\nUnder the 1998 agreement, Damascus agreed that it would not allow the PKK to operate on its soil. Now, however, the YPG has claims for an autonomous administration in northern Syria based on the political ideals promoted by Ocalan.\nThe renewed focus on the Adana agreement brings to mind some critical points. Firstly, it means that Syria should be obliged either to extradite terrorists to Turkey, in this case members of the YPG or the Democratic Union Party (PYD), or remove them from the country. But to expect this from Damascus, Turkey will need to engage in official communication with the Syrian regime. According to several analysts, the return of the Adana agreement to the agenda serves to pave the way for formal contact between Ankara and Damascus and a new beginning for bilateral relations.\nHowever, with Turkey concerned about the possible power vacuum that will be created after the US withdrawal, significant contact between Turkey and Syria remains unlikely for now. In addition, what action Turkey might take against Kurdish terrorists in Syria depends on what sort of approach Damascus adopts toward the Kurds.\nAnkara has been able to raise its security concerns through the ongoing Astana process, which also includes Russia and Iran, and does not need any other platform to discuss its concerns. Turkey wants its borders to be free from the threat posed by terrorist elements in Syria, and Russia seems to understand these concerns. Putin and Erdogan\u2019s positive remarks regarding the importance of the Adana agreement should be read in the context of the issue of a safe zone, regarding which Moscow and Ankara are on the same page.\nIt is important for states to remember their history as they shape their policies for the future. Time will tell the full reasons why the Adana agreement has been raised again. However, it seems safe to presume that the provisions it contains clear a legal path for Turkey to take action in Syria, with the full approval of Russia.\n\u2022 Sinem Cengiz is a Turkish political analyst who specializes in Turkey\u2019s relations with the Middle East.\nTwitter: @SinemCngz",

Estimated to sell for between \u00a31 million\u2014\u00a31.5 million ($1.2 million\u2014$1.8 million) at the Post-War and Contemporary Art evening auction on March 7, the large-scale drawing is rendered in Basquiat\u2019s trademark visual language. Untitled (1982), Basquiat depicts the artist as a frail stick figure, with a tear in his eye. The work reflects the artist\u2019s psyche at a time when his career was taking off and he was struggling to rationalise the dichotomy between art world fame and being a black man in 1980s America. Jean-Michel Basquiat\u2019s Untitled (1982) will be on view as part of a global tour to Shanghai (February 8), Beijing (February 11-13), New York (February 24-26), and London (from 3 March) ahead of the auction at Christie\u2019s King Street location in London.\nBasquiat Untitled Drawing Collection Adam Clayton U2 Christie\u2019s\nSOTHEBY\u2019S Impressionist and Modern Sale 1 March\nGustav Klimt, Bauerngarten, 1907 is to go under the hammer at Sotheby\u2019s London carrying an estimate of $45m on 1 March. While Portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer II (1912) belonging to the Producer/Presenter Oprah Winfrey has been sold privately for $150 million, in a deal brokered by Larry Gagosian selling to a Chinese collector.\nKlimt\u2019s landscape work isn\u2019t as iconic as his two portraits of Adele Bloch-Bauer\u2014the other was purchased by collector Ronald Lauder in 2015 for $135 million, making it the most expensive private art transaction of all time at that point. (Both Bloch-Bauer portraits are currently on view at Lauder\u2019s Neue Galerie in New York, and will stay up through September 2017.) And his landscapes aren\u2019t as well known as his work that makes use of gold leaf.\nThe work was first exhibited at the Kunstschau in Vienna a year after it was completed and then sold to the National Gallery in Prague two years later. The institution deaccessioned it in 1968, and then it appeared on the block in 1994, when the current consignor acquired it at Christie\u2019s in London for $5.8 million. Sotheby\u2019s came to the much higher figure of $45 million for its estimate based on the previous sales of Klimt landscapes, Newman said.\nThe London sales begin February 28 with the Impressionist and modern art evening Sale at Christie\u2019s, which includes works such as Paul Gauguin\u2019s Te Fare (La Maison) (1892), which is estimated to sell for $12 million to $18 million.\nThe Impressionist & Modern Art Evening Sale on 28 February will launch 20th-Century at Christie\u2019s, a season of sales that take place in London from 28 February to 10 March 2017. The auction will present 51 lots from the birth of Impressionism through to some of the most important and ground-breaking movements of the 20th century, and will feature two esteemed European collections, The Personal Collection of Barbara Lambrecht and Le Corbusier: Important Works from the Heidi Weber Museum Collection, forming a focal point for the sale.\nA major highlight is Paul Gauguin\u2019s Te Fare (La Maison) (1892, estimate: \u00a312,000,000-18,000,000), one of the most richly coloured of his Tahitian landscapes, painted on his first visit to the island. Further exceptional works include Henri Matisse\u2019s Jeune fille aux an\u00e9mones sur fond violet (1944, estimate: \u00a35,000,000-7,000,000), part of a series of interior scenes that the artist created whilst living in Vence in the South of France, a monumental portrait of two figures by Pablo Picasso titled Joueur de fl\u00fbte et femme nue (1970, estimate: \u00a36,500,000-8,500,000), Canotage \u00e1 Bougival (circa 1881, estimate: \u00a33,700,000-4,700,000), a landscape by Pierre-Auguste Renoir, formerly in the collection of Albert C. Barnes, painted at a transitional moment in his career and Auguste Rodin\u2019s timeless expression of passionate love Le baiser (conceived circa 1882, estimate: \u00a34,000,000-6,000,000). The Impressionist & Modern Works on Paper sale takes place on 1 March and is followed by the Impressionist & Modern Art Day Sale, also on 1 March at King Street with Impressionist & Modern Art taking place at Christie\u2019s South Kensington on 3 March. The online-only sale Picasso Ceramics will run alongside the live auctions from 24 February to 7 March 2017. Prices range from \u00a3500-18,000,000 across the season, providing opportunities for collectors at every level. Highlights will be on view in Shanghai on 8 February and Beijing from 11 to 13 February with all works to be exhibited in London from 23 to 28 February 2017.\nThe spectacular Gauguin Tahitian landscape, Te Fare (La Maison) was created in 1892, the year that Paul Gauguin painted some of his greatest masterpieces. A large hibiscus tree dominates the composition, its rich emerald green leaves and just visible orange blossoms obscuring the purple-roofed house situated behind it. This wooden hut could, it has been suggested, be the artist\u2019s own rented home in Mataiea. A quiet, enigmatic narrative seems to veil the scene, imbuing the composition with a deeper, psychological dimension, a reflection of Gauguin\u2019s Symbolist involvement. In Te Fare (La Maison) Gauguin has increasingly simplified and monumentalised the landscape, transcending reality by turning the natural world into a mystic vision of colour, line, and form.\nPICASSO: Joueur de fl\u00fbte et femme nue depicts a voluptuous female nude, being softly serenaded by a bearded, flute-player seated next to her. The couple\u2019s interlocking limbs, and the sensual, spontaneous style of the painting all serve to infuse the composition with a heady sense of eroticism, a feature that characterises much of Picasso\u2019s late work. The unmistakable, hieratic profile of the seated nude in Joueur de fl\u00fbte et femme nue is that of Jacqueline Roque, Picasso\u2019s great love, wife, and final muse, who first appeared in his work in 1954.\nRENOIR: Renoir is likely to have painted Canotage \u00e1 Bougival in the spring of 1881, soon after returning from a two-month trip to Algeria, his first ever voyage outside of France. During his travels, the artist had devoted himself fully to landscape painting, revelling in the dense and luxuriant foliage of palm and banana trees. Seeking to maintain the creative energy that the Algerian vistas had inspired in him, he continued to paint landscapes that bear witness to one of the central tenets of Impressionism: the plein-air master standing outdoors. Canotage \u00e1 Bougival was acquired in 1920 by one of the most important collectors of the 20th Century: Dr. Albert C. Barnes. Barnes\u2019s collection of modern art remains among the greatest of its kind, and features many works by Renoir, whom Barnes admired above all other painters.\nMATISSE: Depicting a young artist, Annelies Nelck, Jeune fille aux an\u00e9mones sur fond violet is the first of three portraits by Matisse that features this model. Of these three works, the present oil is the only one to remain in private hands; the other two reside in the Mus\u00e9e Matisse, Nice, and the Honolulu Museum of Art, Hawaii. Wearing a red and orange Romanian blouse \u2013 one of Matisse\u2019s adored collection of lavish dresses and ornate costumes that he often depicted his sitters in \u2013 Nelck is surrounded by blossoming flowers against a soft, mauve background, bringing Matisse\u2019s lifelong preoccupations with colour and line to a triumphant conclusion.\nRODIN: First conceived circa 1882, Le baiser is one of the most iconic sculptures of Rodin\u2019s entire oeuvre, renowned for its poetic depiction of two young lovers caught in a passionate embrace. Rodin\u2019s work dramatically portrays the intense desire that has swept through these two figures, causing their bodies to intertwine in an almost spiral formation, as they succumb to their lustful impulses. Slightly larger than life size, the original marble version was exhibited at the Paris Salon of 1898.\nTHE PERSONAL COLLECTION OF BARBARA LAMBRECHT SOLD TO BENEFIT THE RUBENS PRIZE COLLECTION IN THE MUSEUM OF CONTEMPORARY ART SIEGEN\nWith the sale of her personal collection, Barbara Lambrecht continues her profound and longstanding philanthropic engagement. Her personal collection was carefully assembled over four decades and two distinct conceptual strands can be identified: classic early Impressionism and the daring colour of the Fauves. Two important oils by Berthe Morisot will be presented alongside Claude Monet\u2019s Les Bords de la Seine au Petit-Gennevilliers (1874, estimate: \u00a32,000,000-3,000,000), Deux anges by Kees van Dongen (1907-09, estimate: \u00a3400,000-600,000) and Pablo Picasso\u2019s Portrait de Lluis Alemany (1899-1900, estimate: \u00a3300,000-500,000).\nLE CORBUSIER: IMPORTANT WORKS FROM THE HEIDI WEBER MUSEUM COLLECTION\nThree oil paintings from the Heidi Weber Museum Collection, including Nature morte et figure (completed in 1944, estimate: \u00a31,500,000-2,500,000), trace Le Corbusier\u2019s career from the 1920s to the 1940s and will be offered alongside four works on paper. From the elegant, rigidly structured Purist compositions of the late 1910s and early 1920s, to the exuberant multi-hued compositions of his later years, the astonishing diversity that characterises Le Corbusier\u2019s oeuvre can be seen in the selection of works that feature in the Impressionist & Modern Art Evening and Works on Paper Sales.\nChristie\u2019s announces highlights from its the Art of The Surreal sale\nRen\u00e9 Magritte\u2019s La corde sensible, a composition unique in his oeuvre, exemplifies the artist\u2019s lifelong quest to reveal and revel in the mystery that he perceived to exist within the real world. Magritte originally presented it as a gift to his wife, Georgette. Later owned by Ronald Winston, the son of the world-renowned jeweller, Harry Winston, the painting has remained in the same private collection since 1990. Situated under a blue sky, amidst a verdant green landscape with a mountain range in the distance, an enormous crystal glass stands incongruously in the middle of the valley. Hovering just above it is a cloud, the weightless form meeting the solid glass creating a compelling contrast between lightness and weight, transparency and opacity, atmosphere and earth.\nLe domaine d\u2019Arnheim is Ren\u00e9 Magritte\u2019s first realisation in oil of one of his most enduring pictorial motifs, the magisterial eagle-shaped mountain. The epic scale and romantic grandeur of this painting\u2019s mountain imagery is echoed on a window ledge in the foreground of the painting where a small, almost minimal, still-life rests in the form of a pair of bird eggs. The present work formed part of the collection assembled by the great English patron and collector of surrealist art, Edward James.\nThe group of seven works by Max Ernst, offered from a number of prestigious collections, includes Les deux oiseaux, one of a major series of object-paintings on the theme of imprisoned birds that Ernst made in 1925. The delicacy of the birds\u2019 forms is presented in sharp contrast to the heavy texture of the sandpaper ground, imprisoning bars and the strong cork boundary of the artist\u2019s picture-frame. Savage Moon (1926, estimate: \u00a3250,000-350,000) is one of a series of moonlit landscape paintings that Ernst made the following year, in 1926. Depicting a mystic moon casting its ethereal light over the surface of the sea, it is one of the very first paintings that he ever made using the new technique of grattage, a method of scraping random patterns in oil paint. Out of the apparent geometric simplicity of the forms, a matrix of abstract pattern and colour has been created. Portrait \u00e9rotique voil\u00e9 is offered by the artist\u2019s family, it was first created in 1933 and later reworked by the artist into a new, more regal and grandiose version around 1950. Centred upon the depiction of an imperious bird-headed female figure sporting a revolutionary bonnet de la Libert\u00e9 and seated on a crimson throne, this final version was unseen in public until the major retrospective of Ernst\u2019s work held at the Staatsgalerie in Stuttgart and the Kunstsammlung Nordrhein-Westfalen in Dusseldorf in 1991. The group also includes a very rare Dada collage from 1920 titled 2 holo\u00ebder sulfate silicate picastrate u. zwillinge nach meiner wahl mit st\u00e4bchen (Two Holohedra sulfates, silicates, picastrates and twins after my choice with chopsticks) (estimate: \u00a3250,000-350,000), Produit de France (1935, estimate: \u00a380,000-120,000), Das R\u00e4stel im Stil von Giorgio de Chirico (1934, estimate: \u00a330,000-50,000), and a striking \u2018d\u00e9calcomanie\u2019 Untitled (1941, estimate: \u00a3200,000-300,000).\nOne of the first works he created upon arriving in the USA, Yves Tanguy\u2019s La lumi\u00e8re, la solitude (1940, estimate: \u00a3500,000-700,000) is a comparatively large, highly worked, jewel-like painting, distinctive for the rich rainbow colours of its background. With its constellation of automatic, intuitively arrived-at, forms in the foreground, it hovers on the borderline between realist landscape and abstract fantasy. One of the best compositions the market has seen for years this painting was hidden in a private European collection for decades until now.\nMagn\u00e9to anglaise (1921-22, estimate: \u00a3400,000-600,000) is one of a much-celebrated series of ironic, \u2018abstract\u2019 works that Francis Picabia made for his solo show at the Galerie Dalmau in Barcelona, in November 1922. It was first bought from the artist by the celebrated collector and Parisian fashion designer Jaques Doucet and later formed part of the English collection of E.J. Power for 20 years. Picabia\u2019s \u2018mechanomorphic\u2019 abstractions appeared to challenge and lampoon the whole idea of modernist aesthetics, the contemporary art market and the mechanical workings of human sexual attraction and interaction. Rich in imagery and enigmatic in its meaning, Statices (1929, estimate: \u00a31,300,000-1,800,000) is a captivating example of Picabia\u2019s celebrated Transparency paintings, a series of works named for their depiction of multiple images, layered atop one another in an effect similar to multiple-exposure photography. Completing this group is Phimparey (circa 1941-42, estimate: \u00a3200,000-300,000), a painting that demonstrates a move towards pop art in its reproduction of a popular magazine image.\nTwo works are being offered by The Art Institute of Chicago. Paul Delvaux\u2019s Le village des sir\u00e8nes, created in 1942, one of the best years in Delvaux\u2019s oeuvre, at the very height of the German occupation of Belgium, portrays an otherworldly scene, in which a group of elegantly dressed women sits along a gently curving street with mermaids swimming beyond. The silence conveyed offers a startling contrast to the chaos of the war that was raging in Europe at this time while the disconcerting and anachronistic architectural juxtapositions and disquieting atmosphere reveal a strong affinity with the art of Giorgio de Chirico. Part of the collection since 1954, Giorgio de Chirico\u2019s Guerrieri e filosofi (circa 1928, estimate: \u00a3300,000-500,000) is one of a series of gladiatorial paintings that appeared regularly in de Chirico\u2019s oeuvre during the late 1920s and early 1930s. De Chirico stated that many of his Gladiatori from this period were intended as a satire on the art world who had turned against him.\nOlivier Camu, Deputy Chairman, Impressionist & Modern Art, Christie\u2019s: \u201cThe sale presents 16 of the leading Dada and Surreal artists in a carefully curated group of paintings and Surrealist objects from some of the most celebrated collections in the world. Ren\u00e9 Magritte\u2019s magnificent oil La corde sensible, painted in 1960, is an exquisite composition that eludes meaning or logical explanation and is poised to achieve a significant record for the artist. It is arguably the most striking and important Magritte work we have offered at auction since 2002. It is also a privilege to be offering on behalf of the Art Institute of Chicago two great paintings by Paul Delvaux and Giorgio de Chirico. Together with the Max Ernsts from the collections of the artist\u2019s family and the great German philanthropist and collector Barbara Lambrecht, the provenance of the works of art in this edition of The Art of the Surreal is unrivalled.\u201d\nFurther artists representing the range of the movement include Jean (Hans) Arp, Alexander Calder, whose sculpture The bat (1966, estimate: \u00a3400,000-600,000) shows how Surrealism continued to influence artists throughout the second part of the 20th century, Salvador Dal\u00ed, who collaborated with Edward James on the striking bright red Mae West Lips Sofa (1938, estimate: \u00a3400,000-600,000), sold by the Edward James Foundation, \u00d3scar Dom\u00ednguez, Andr\u00e9 Masson, Joan Mir\u00f3, Man Ray and Antoni T\u00e0pies.\nPeter Doig\u2019s \u201cCobourg 3 + 1 More\u201d to star in Christies Post-War and Contemporary Art Evening Auction\nLONDON.- Christie\u2018s Post-War and Contemporary Art Evening Auction will present Peter Doig\u2019s Cobourg 3 + 1 More (1994, estimate: \u00a38,000,000-12,000,000), which stands among the great icons of Doig\u2019s early oeuvre. A visionary apparition rendered on a majestic scale, Cobourg 3 + 1 More conjures a distant, half-remembered reality beneath a shimmering membrane of scattered pigment. Recently awarded the Art Icon Award at London\u2019s Whitechapel Gallery, Peter Doig placed himself in the Canadian landscape of his youth next to his brother. Acquired in 1994 by German insurance company Provinzial Rheinland Cobourg 3 + 1 More comes to auction for the first time in its history and will be exhibited at Christie\u2019s New York from 24 to 26 February and at Christie\u2019s King Street from 3 March as part of the 20th-Century series of sales ahead of the auction on 7 March 2017 in London. Provinzial Rheinland will use the proceeds of the sale to uphold a long-standing tradition of engagement with the arts and culture in the Rhine region whilst also continuing to acquire the works of young contemporary artists, a focus of the corporate collection from its inception.\nDr Walter Tesarczyk, Chairman Provinzial Rheinland: \u201cIt is with a heavy heart that we part with Peter Doig\u2018s Cobourg 3 + 1 More. However, this sale presents us with the opportunity to maintain our support for arts and culture in the Rhine region and also enables us to secure and expand our collection of 250 works by 80 international artists. Many of these works are displayed in our D\u00fcsseldorf headquarters, giving more than 2000 employees free and unfettered access to contemporary art.\u201c\nFrancis Outred, Chairman and Head of Post-War and Contemporary Art, EMERI: \u201cBack in 1994 when the tendency was for cool conceptual art, Provinzial Rheinland displayed a brave collecting vision by recognising that Peter Doig was developing a new approach to painting which gave new life and energy to the medium. Standing in front of this work one is taken to a different world and through the whiteout gradually we see a memory of his childhood home landscape and begin to pick out the silhouettes of Doig himself and his brother. Up close the thick texture of snow and staccato brushmarks create a tapestry of paint, the like of which nobody had seen before.\u201d\nCobourg 3 + 1 More was painted in London in 1994 \u2013 a pivotal year that saw the production of some of Doig\u2019s most celebrated canvases including Ski Jacket (Tate, London) and Pond Life, both included in his Turner Prize exhibition that year, as well as Blotter (Walker Art Gallery, Liverpool). Marking the culmination of the artist\u2019s meditations on the snow-filled landscapes of his Canadian youth, Doig depicts four figures \u2013 including flickering traces of him and his brother \u2013 standing on the shore of a frozen lake in Cobourg, where he grew up. As the blizzard subsumes their forms, foreground and background dissolve into a near-cinematic expanse of painterly abstraction, dramatising the slippages of reverie, daydream and memory. A centrepiece of Doig\u2019s major touring retrospectives at Tate, London (2008) and the Fondation Beyeler, Basel (2015), the work represents a tour de force of the diverse influences that nourished his early painterly aesthetic, filtering, splicing and recombining the languages of Jackson Pollock, Gerhard Richter, Claude Monet, Mark Rothko, Barnett Newman, Pierre Bonnard and Pieter Bruegel.\nAs Peter Doig has said: \u201cWe\u2019ve all experienced the sensation of light dropping and producing strange natural effects, and I think in a way I am using these natural phenomena and amplifying them through the materiality of paint and the activity of painting \u2026 When I was making the \u201csnow\u201d paintings I was looking a lot at Monet, where there is this incredibly extreme, apparently exaggerated use of colour.\u201c The painting bears witness to Doig\u2018s fascination with Claude Monet\u2019s study of winter light: spellbound visions of frozen beauty, punctuated by revolutionary prismatic effects. At the same time, Cobourg 3 + 1 More demonstrates the depth of Doig\u2019s engagement with the legacy of abstraction. Beneath the Pollock-esque furore of action painting that covers the surface, Doig crafts an architectonic structure reminiscent of Barnett Newman\u2019s \u2018zip\u2019 paintings: a decisive influence on the artist during his formative years. Against the three horizontal planar divisions of the canvas \u2013 a structure that runs like a golden thread throughout Doig\u2019s practice \u2013 a forest of vertical lines springs up on the horizon, splintering the canvas into infinite shards. In counterpoint with this underlying geometry, Doig\u2019s reverberant chromatic strata echo the quivering colour fields of Mark Rothko, unfurling and mingling across the canvas as if on a single continuum.",

Fifty years ago on April 17, 1964, Ford introduced its iconic Mustang at the World\u2019s Fair in New York.\nThe first known purchase of perhaps the best known muscle car on the planet was made by Gail Wise.\nThe Mustang caused a sensation when it was introduced, with 22,000 orders for the sporty vehicle taken on the first day of sales. It was priced at $2,368 US.\nWatch the Video of 2015 Mustang Here\nNEW YORK, US -- Ford celebrated the 50th birthday of its beloved Mustang by displaying a new model of the convertible on top of the Empire State Building in New York on Wednesday, April 16.\nThe Triple Yellow 2015 Mustang was taken apart, whisked up by elevator to the observation deck and painstakingly reassembled overnight in freezing wind, rain and snow.\nMore than 1,000 feet (304 meters) above the crowded streets of Manhattan, the observation deck is too high to send the car up by crane and although open air, too narrow for a helicopter drop.\nSo a team of eight or nine spent more than five hours reassembling the car by hand overnight, battling strong wind on the 86th floor of New York's second tallest building.\n\"Zero visibility to start with,\" George Samulski, manager of Ford North America design fabrication, told AFP. \"It got better as the night went on, but it was bad, it was cold, it was windy.\"\nBy sunrise, the convertible was glittering and the views stunning.\nVisitors can admire the car until Thursday. After the deck closes to the public at 2:00 am on Friday, the crew will dismantle the car all over again and remove it.\nIt is the second time a Ford Mustang has gone on display atop the Empire State Building. The first time was in 1965.\nThe stunt marks 50 years since US auto giant Ford put the first Mustang on sale during an expo in New York on April 17, 1964.\nFord received 22,000 orders on the first day and sold 418,000 in one year.\nThe 50th birthday will be celebrated in great pomp at the New York International Auto Show from April 18 to 27. -- Rappler.com\nBirthday Ford Mustang",

Yet with our aging population, they have become far too familiar.\nTaking care of a senior with Alzheimer\u2019s or Dementia can become difficult, depending on the severity of the condition. However, our caregivers are highly experienced and trained in giving Alzheimer\u2019s and Dementia care. They know how to handle different situations that may happen to a client with this condition.\nThe signs of Alzheimer\u2019s and dementia are easy to miss. \u201cIt\u2019s OK if he asks me the same thing three times,\u201d you say to yourself. Or, \u201cHe\u2019s too young to have dementia.\u201d It\u2019s not easy to approach these subjects with our family members.

Alzheimer\u2019s is progressive and incurable, although there are medications and ways of managing that help.\nDoes your loved one:\nhave less energy?\nsit and watch tv instead of socializing?\nbecome moody and uninterested?\nfeel depressed?\nforget conversations or events that just happened?\nhave trouble following a conversation, completing whole thoughts or understanding others?\nget lost on the same streets they have driven before?\nhave difficulties with everyday tasks?\nAll of these are signs of Alzheimer\u2019s. With Alzheimer\u2019s our loved one is still occupying the same body, but they are no longer the same person. Precious memories are lost and no new memories are gained. We look at the person who has meant so much to us and ask, \u201cWho are the now?\u201d They don\u2019t recognize us. We grieve. At the same time, we remind ourselves that it is not about us. The shared love and memories are still a part of us.\nIt\u2019s physically and emotionally exhausting to care for a person with Alzheimer\u2019s, but there is help:\nAVIDA HOME CARE.\nOur care providers are trained to give compassionate care while preserving your loved one\u2019s dignity.\n\u201cIf you find yourself caring for a relative with dementia, the chances are you\u2019ll need help.\u201d \u2013 Phyllis Logan\nTrust our highly experienced caregivers to provide the care and needs of your loved ones with dementia.

After having established themselves as one of the leading European wind quintets by winning the ARD Competition in Munich, Azahar Ensemble now presents its first CD: \u201cTurina x Turina\u201d. With warmth and homogeneity of timbre, richness of expression, and relaxed virtuosity, the quintet seems to glide almost effortlessly through the marvelous music of Spanish composer Joaqu\u00edn Turina. The excellent arrangements are provided by the latter\u2019s grandson, Jos\u00e9 Luis Turina, one of the ensemble\u2019s most ardent supporters. In this album brimming with light, freshness, and aromas of the South, the Azahar Ensemble pays a fervent musical tribute to the legendary Impressionist composer from Seville. Azahar Ensemble delights audiences with \u201cgreat imagination and technical precision\u201d (S\u00fcddeutsche Zeitung) that makes the quintet\u2019s performances \u201cbloom in sensual abundance\u201d (Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung). Chamber music cannot be performed at a higher level, nor can you bring together a group of people with as much magic, personality and camaraderie as Azahar Ensemble. It is a true privilege to work with them and for them. (Jos\u00e9 Luis Turina Madrid, June 2018)",

With more markets emerging and the global economy as a whole rapidly evolving, the need to tap into new and cutting-edge financial tools and services has become a need rather than just a contingency to protecting and growing people\u2019s wealth. In such a case, offshore banking and investing have unlocked ground-breaking opportunities to help investors maximize their potential for harvesting profits.\nDepending on the financial and business climate of the country they work in, expatriates may find it difficult to diversity their financial assets. Many jurisdictions have huge levies on personal income while others lack opportunities to access high-growth financial securities. It is for this very reason that offshore banking and investing emerged like skyscrapers, where state-of-the-art financial centers provide expatriates and all other international investors the access to global equities, fixed-income assets, mutual funds, and even precious metals right at their fingertips\u2014regardless of where they are in the world. With high-technology online tools, customizable investing programs, and an experienced management team from within an efficient corporate structure, offshore financial services are making it a lot easier for investors to enjoy a wide range of economic opportunities.\nMajority of the world\u2019s offshore financial management companies are based in just a few countries or territories, which are typically tax-neutral jurisdictions. Among them are the Bahamas, Bermuda, Cayman and the Channel Islands. Leading companies, such as LOM Offshore Financial Services, offer and facilitate international distribution of a variety of assets that investors can take ownership of: equities, bonds, options, futures, commodities, and foreign exchange. In addition, they offer secure banking services that provide a convenient and easy method for accessing funds in their personal accounts. Other services include MasterCard & ATM access, multi-currency transactions, 24/7 customer support, and dedicated private financial advisory.\nImage source: SimplySfdc.com\nBeyond the comprehensive access to global securities, top-of-the-line banking tools, and world-class fund management services, offshore banking and investing companies offer clients a lucrative option to diversify their portfolio, build a hedge against inflation, develop a cushion from very high taxes in a tax neutral environment, and above all, take comfort in the privacy and security of transactions.\nSet up your own offshore account now.

        "raw_content": "The Long View 2006-05-24: The Next America\nLawful immigrants over the past 200 years\nPew Hispanic Share of US Population that is Foreign Born\nHere are a couple of graphs to help illustrate John Reilly's points here. If we would really like to emulate the success of the last large wave of immigration to the United States, from roughly 1840 to 1930, it would be prudent of us to stop, and give everyone time to get used to each other. It took a lot of work last time, and it will this time too.\nA book published eleven years ago by Michael Lind speaks to our condition today: The Next American Nation: The New Nationalism and the Fourth American Republic . Indeed, let me suggest that before going any further in this blog entry that you read my review of the book, here. There is a link at the end of the review to bring you back.\nYou will note that the review is not uncritical. I don't think there is going to be another American Revolution, unless you count Reconstruction and the New Deal as revolutions. Also, I would suggest that the years since I wrote that review have proven that Lind's dismissal of the religious element in American culture is an unfruitful hypothesis, particularly for someone who hopes to reform the political system to make it more congruent with the national character. Moreover, I think that his notion of an \"Overclass\" is just one step above David Icke's lizard people. Still, the immigration issue has so changed things that time runs short in which to decide what in this sort of analysis is really prescient. For those slackers who did not read the review, consider this paragraph:\nLind is particularly exercised about the Overclass's nearly unanimous support of free trade. He notes that family income has been stagnant at best for the last twenty years, and that wages per worker have actually declined. Part of this he blames on the decline of unionization among the workforce, which he attributes almost entirely to government hostility. The rest he blames on foreign competition. The Overclass, in Lind's view, has deliberately and successfully driven down the wages of the average American since the late 1970s. This was achieved not only by permitting the import of foreign goods, but by actually importing foreign workers. The author spends a great deal of space trying to show that America historically has experienced heavy immigration only in spurts, all of which produced bad feeling, and which hindered the process of assimilating people already here. Multicultural America is gradually being transformed into a province of the Third World. The Overclass itself, however, dreams of becoming a post-American global elite.\nAgain, time has tested Lind's ideas, and in the matter of free trade I think they have been found wanting. At any rate, neither NAFTA nor the WTC have caused the disasters that were forecast: quite the opposite. Neither is it true that the globalists are responsible for keeping the borders open. From what I can tell, the political force behind that is generally conservative, even isolationist, middle-range businessmen and farmers who don't see why relegating the manual trades to a special caste of aliens should be a problem. In other words, a large part of the political dynamic is the local notables who, collectively, are far more influential than big business. Lind is worth reconsidering, however, because he foresaw that immigration would be important not just as a depressor of wages, but also because it threatens cultural dilution on an unprecedented scale.\nThus, I think that Mary Ann Glendon's piece, Principled Migration, which appears in the June/July issue of First Things, badly misapprehends the situation. She notes:\nGood-faith anxieties about large-scale immigration are sometimes expressed in terms of social costs, such as a feared deleterious effect on the nation's cultural cohesion or the stability of local communities. One would like to take comfort from the fact that similar concerns were expressed at the time of the great migrations of a century ago. Though marked by conflict and competition, the story of those earlier immigrants is, to a great extent, a story of integration.\nShe then goes on to note some ways in which integration has become more difficult. The Democratic political machines, for instance,\nthat once brought new citizens into the political process at the local level have vanished. In their place...[the] newcomer from Mexico, Brazil, or El Salvador becomes a generic \"Latino\" in preparation for initiation into the game of divisive racial minority politics.\nParticularly worrisome to her as a lawyer is that whereas \"there is no place on Earth where legal values play a more prominent role in the nation's conception of itself than the United States,\" the 11 million or 12 million illegals \"come from societies where formal law is associated with colonialism: and who, as a consequence, \"may well find the United States' emphasis on legality rather strange.\" The earlier immigration did not threaten the rule of law; that immigration was legal.\nAll good points, but they are not the half of it. Glendon wholly neglects the fact that the earlier immigration succeeded because it ended. In contrast, she does not contemplate an end to the current immigration, or even a diminution. She asserts, without argument, that the United States requires \"replacement immigration\" to make up for the children who were not born because of 40 years of anti-natalist public policy. She deplores that policy, but does not address the possibility that high immigration is the one measure sure to keep it in place.\nWorst of all is that she looks to the Catholic hierarchy for guidance, particularly the 2003 Joint Pastoral Letter issued by the Mexican and U.S. bishops, Strangers no Longer: Together on a Journey of Hope. (Why is it that the church social-documents most likely to cause misery and violence always have the most inanely irenic titles?). There we read this remarkable principle:\nIII. Sovereign nations have the right to control their borders. 36. The Church recognizes the right of sovereign nations to control their territories but rejects such control when it is exerted merely for the purpose of acquiring additional wealth. More powerful economic nations, which have the ability to protect and feed their residents, have a stronger obligation to accommodate migration flows.\nOne might compare this with the Catechism of the Catholic Church (section 2241):\nThe more prosperous nations are obliged, to the extent they are able, to welcome the foreigner in search of the security and the means of livelihood which he cannot find in his country of origin. Public authorities should see to it that the natural right is respected that places a guest under the protection of those who receive him.\nNote that it's hard to see how someone with a right to residence can be considered a guest. In any case, the principle is a puzzler. Kant discerned a universal right to travel, but not to settlement. Where else the bishops might have gotten these notions is a mystery; certainly there is no serious scriptural support for the proposition, as William F. Vallicella points out at Right Reason.\nFor anyone so inclined, the Catechism's proviso, \"to the extent that they are able,\" would allow ample room for limiting immigration in order to forestall the development of irredentist movements and to prevent the depression of wage levels, both of which apply in the current immigration controversy. Frankly, though, I am not much inclined to accommodate this text. The Catechism is a sound document for the most part, but it does contain multicultural flourishes that have aged very badly very fast. It is the vulnerability of advanced countries that has proven to be the more serious issue. (The Latin text was copyrighted in 1994. The previous Catechism dates from the 16th century. The update was precipitous, it seems.)\nAs for the Pastoral Letter: well, bishops' conferences say the damnedest things.\nThe Long View, Immigration, Demography\nThe Ringworld Engineers Book Review",

        "raw_content": "Lectures on the Spirit of Prophecy\nGermany, 25 through 28 of May 2006\nBy: Johannes Terinathe\nGreetings to all of you, Brethren and Sisters. Thanks a lot to your Board of Trustees, for the invitation to enable me to stand here before you. I am not a very eloquent preacher as you might think, nor even a well known minister of the gospel, to come to you with good sermons. I only want to teach you the foundation of our faith as Seventh-Day Adventists. Ellen G. White as the servant of the Lord and the establisher of our SDA Church, had ever said:\n\u201cMinisters should present the sure word of prophecy as the foundation of the faith of Seventh-Day Adventists. The prophecies of Daniel and the Revelation should be carefully studied, and in connection with them the words, \u2018Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.\u2019\u201d \u2013 Gospel Workers, p. 148.\n\u201cThere should be less preaching and more teaching. There are those who want more definite light than they receive from hearing the sermons. \u2026\u2026. If the truth presented could be a little plainer, they would see it and take hold of it, and it would be like a nail fastened in a sure place.\n\u201cThere must be less sermonizing and more tact to educate the people in practical religion.\u201d \u2013 6 Testimonies, p. 87.\n\u201cTrue religion means living the word in your practical life. Your profession is not of any value without the practical doing of the word.\u201d \u2013 Test. To Ministers, p. 127.\nNow let us read together the statement of\n\u201cThe secret things belong unto the Lord our God: but those things which are revealed belong unto us and to our children for ever, that we may do all the words of this Law.\u201d \u2013 Deuteronomy 29 : 29.\nIn the Spirit of Prophecy Moses is well-known as a historian of the creation and the law scientist, and John the Revelator is known as the recorder of the most sublime truths of the Bible. Please Read The Great Controversy, p. 7. In his book entitled Deuteronomy 29 : 29 he has divided the Bible into two separate divisions, consist of The Constitution or the Law of the Ten Commandments as the basic Law, on the one side, and those revealed things of the Bible as the by-law on the other side. The act of dividing the Law into such two divisions is very common known among the modern people in this time. And the by-law usually contains the rules of implementation or the rules of doing the Constitution. It seemed clearly that not only Moses had been familiar with the way of dividing the law into such two divisions, but the other authors of the Bible too, such as the prophets David and Isaiah, and the apostles Matthew and John; these have the same scientific knowledge on the act of dividing the Law into those two divisions. Let us now look at each of their statements in the following quotations:\nMoses the prophet:\nThe secret things which belong to God will not be revealed unto us in the Bible. The only secret thing that had been informed us is found in Revelation 10 : 4 : \u201cAnd when the seven thunders had uttered their voices, I was about to write : and I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Seal up those things which the seven thunders uttered, and write them not.\u201d\nThe story of the seven thunders could not be found in the book of Revelation. And that is why they could not be interpreted for us in this time of the end.\nHowever, those things which are revealed are to be found in the Bible. And those secret things of the Bible, which comprise the prophecies of the Old Testament prophets, and the book of Revelation, and the parables of Jesus, are to be interpreted in the SPIRIT OF PROPHECY. So those things which are revealed in the Bible and in the SPIRIT OF PROPHECY belong unto us and to our children for ever, that we may do all the words of the Ten Commandments. Here is seen clearly how Moses divided the Bible into two separate portions: The Law of the Ten Commandments as the Constitution on the one side, and those revealed in the Bible and THE SPIRIT OF PROPHECY, as the BY-LAW on the other side.\nDavid the prophet:\n\u201cBlessed are the undefiled in the way, which walk in the law of the Lord. Blessed are they that keep his testimonies and seek him with the whole heart.\u201d \u2013 Psalm 119 : 1, 2.\n\u201cOh how love I thy law! It is my meditation all the day. Thou through thy commandments hast made me wiser than mine enemies; for they are ever with me. I have more understanding than all my teachers: for thy testimonies are my meditation.\u201d \u2013 Psalm 119 : 97 \u2013 99.\nDavid had divided the Bible in his life time into two separate portions, namely the law of the Lord or the Constitution on the one side, and His testimonies on the other side. The testimonies are the by-law, containing the rules of implementation of the law.\nThe prophet Isaiah:\n\u201cTo the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them.\u201d \u2013 Isaiah 8 : 20.\nHere again the prophet Isaiah had divided the Bible in his life time into two separate portions, namely the law of God or the Constitution on the one side, and the testimony or the by-law containing the rules of implementations, on the other side.\nMatthew the apostle:\n\u201cTherefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets.\u201d \u2013 Matthew 7 : 12.\nThe law and the prophets mean to be the law of God and the testimonies of the prophets in the Old Testament Scriptures. It seemed that Matthew had uttered that statement in his time when the new testaments Scriptures were not as yet available. So the testimonies of the prophets must contain the rules of implementations of the Law.\nIn the life time of John the Revelator when he wrote the book of Revelation, the New Testament Scriptures have been already in existent. That is why he said that the remnant Church of God will comprise only those who keep the Law of the Ten Commandments and have the testimony of Jesus Christ. Since all the secrets of the Bible will be revealed in the time of the end, then the testimony of Jesus Christ in the time of the end would also include those newly revelations of the secret things of the Bible. And all these revelations would be accommodated in the SPIRIT OF PROPHECY, to be the by-law or the rules of implementation for the Law of God in this time of the end.\nAlthough the Bible as the law of God was just for the first time written by Moses when the history of the world has reached its 2500 years, it does not mean that the law during that long period of time does not also consist of those two divisions. So let it be understood that it is the characteristic of the law itself that it must be divided into two divisions: The Constitution or the Law of the Ten Commandments on the one side, and the testimony or the testimony of Jesus Christ or the SPIRIT OF PROPHECY, on the other side.\nThe Author of the Law is God the Father Himself. The Author of the Bible and all its interpretations in the SPIRIT OF PROPHECY is Jesus Christ. Thus said Sister White in the book The Great Controversy, p. 7 \u2013 8.\nFrom the Testimony, to the Testimony of Jesus Christ, and then became The SPIRIT OF PROPHECY.\nNow we can see that the Law of God or the Constitution is unchangeable from time to time, because it contains the character of God Himself. And the testimony as the by-law, however, is changeable. As well as the inhabitants of God\u2019s people in the world continue to increase, so is the by-law to increase. It is first called the testimony, because the name of Jesus was not as yet known in the Old Testament era. Later in the New Testament it is called by the name testimony of Jesus Christ, because Jesus was already popular among His people. And later when all the secret things of the Bible have been interpreted in the time of the end, then the name was again developed unto the SPIRIT OF PROPHECY. The SPIRIT OF PROPHECY is not the Spirit of God. It is the product of the Spirit of God in the writings of the New Testament prophets, to be found in the books of The Spirit of Prophecy by Ellen G. White and in the books of the Shepherd\u2019s Rod by Victor T. Houteff. Sister White said:\nIn the time of the end Jesus, Who has been represented by His Spirit, is to guide His messengers (Ellen G. White and Houteff) to provide us with THE SPIRIT OF PROPHECY. And that is why Sister White named it THE TESTIMONY OF HIS SPIRIT or THE TESTIMONY OF JESUS\u2019 SPIRIT.\nSince the Law of God must be obeyed by all generations of the people of the world, then the people must take into their practical life all the words in the testimony, or in the testimony of Jesus Christ, or in the SPIRIT OF PROPHECY. For those living in the Old Testament time they had to practice all the rules of implementation in the testimony that they may do all the words of the Law. But for those living in the New Testament era, especially for those living in the time of the apostles, they have to take into their practical doing the words of the Testimony of Jesus Christ, that they also may do the word of the Law. And for you and me now living in the time of the end where all the prophecies and the parables of the Bible have been revealed in our Church, we are bound to obey the Law of God by only obeying all the instructions given us in the SPIRIT OF PROPHECY. This SPIRIT OF PROPHECY is a combination of the message of the angel of Revelation 18 : 1 and the third angel message of Revelation 14 : 6 \u2013 9. And only in the SPIRIT OF PROPHECY could be found all the Bible doctrines revealed and arranged especially for the use and benefit of the people of God who are now living in the time of the end. For us the Bible and the SPIRIT OF PROPHECY are inseparable. But we are bound to obey only those things which are interpreted in the SPIRIT OF PROPHECY.\nSpiritual identity of God\u2019s people in the time of the end. --- Revelation 12 : 17; 19 : 10 margin. Read the whole verses.\n\u201cAnd the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ. \u2026\u2026Worship God: for the testimony of Jesus Christ is the Spirit of Prophecy. \u201c \u2013 Revelation 12 : 17; 19 : 10, margin.\nThe woman symbolizes the Church, and so the Child is Jesus Christ; the seed is the Christian; the remnant of her seed is the remnant Church in the time of the end, which are to suffer during the time of trouble a short period before the close of probation.\nThe identity of the remnant Church in the time of the end is to keep the Law of God, and to have the Testimony of Jesus Christ, which is THE SPIRIT OF PROPHECY.\nWe must not rest satisfied with only the message in the New Testament Bible, nor with only the Spirit of Prophecy by Ellen G. White, to be the foundation of our faith, because they are not as yet complete. God will not save us with only an incomplete gospel. Suppose should God be willing to save us with an incomplete gospel, then all the Christian Churches of the world should have been saved into Heaven with all their incompleteness. And that is illogical and illegitimate and even impossible. We even cannot be saved with only the Spirit of Prophecy by Ellen G. White, because as long as the new message of the fourth angel of Rev. 18 : 1is still absent, there would be no power nor light to enlighten the earth , which could enable us to understand fully the three angels\u2019 messages. As long as the light of the angel of Revelation 18 : 1 still absent to unite his voice with the third angel to enlighten the earth with its glory, we would never be able to say as did David the prophet of old when he said: \u201cThy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.\u201d Psalm 119 : 105.\nUp to 1915 when Sister White died, the new light of the angel of Revelation 18 : 1 had not as yet come. But she had warned us of the new light that is to come later to unite with the message of the Spirit of Prophecy. From her statement we read as follows:\nNow let us look at the slide! The Law of God in its entirety from LOVE to THE TEN COMMANDMENTS (Four on the left and six on the right), and their details in the BIBLE, and their interpretations in the SPIRIT OF PROPHECY.\nFirstly: The Christian World today upholds the word \u201cLOVE\u201d of God very high. Meanwhile most of our Seventh-Day Adventists also join them in orchestrating the LOVE in like manner. But they forget that Satan is so cunning to darken their mind to the fact, that the LOVE is only just the character of God in principle. Only in principle. It sounds very great and wonderful, but still impracticable to our every day living. Because it is not the Law of God. Whereas we need a practical doing of the Law of love in our religious life. The servant of the Lord said:\nSince many of our people lack the knowledge of the Rules of Implementation of the Law in the SPIRIT OF PROPHECY, many of us are in the dark of how to love GOD supremely with all our heart, and with all our might. The voice of God pleading with His people in this time of the end has been so neglected, only because the prophetic and parabolic languages of the Bible have not been revealed to them through their high institutions of learning, or through their most respected leadership in the General Conference of Seventh-Day Adventists. Sister White said:\n\u201cThose who allow prejudice to bar their mind against the reception of truth cannot receive the divine enlightenment. Yet, when a view of Scripture is presented, many do not ask, is it true \u2013 in harmony with God\u2019s word? But, by whom is it advocated? And unless it comes through the very channel that pleases them, they do not accept it \u2026\u2026\u2026\u201d \u2013 Testimonies to Ministers, p. 106.\nHaving the LOVE of God, without comprehending those specifications in the Ten Commandments and their interpretations in the Bible and the SPIRIT OF PROPHECIES, no one could show their LOVE to their own Creator or even to their own fellowmen. LOVE is the source of the Law of God. It is not the Law of God itself. So let us understand that the LOVE is inseparable from the Law of the Ten Commandments. And the Law of Ten Commandment is also inseparable from its rules of implementations in the Bible and THE SPIRIT OF PROPHECY. The definition of the Law according to the Law experts is as follows:\n\u201cThe Law is the norms and the rules and the regulations, either written or not written, which oblige people to do something, or forbid people from doing anything, all of which are necessary for arranging and maintaining peace and order in the community.\u201d\nThis is a very simple definition of the Law, although actually there is many more of such definition to be found in the domain of the Law science. Every nation of the world has their own norms and rules and the regulations, but it is the same law for maintaining peace and order. We can see for ourselves how important the Law of God is for maintaining peace and order, either between men and the Lord as our Creator, and also between the human beings ourselves.\nIn this modern time of the end where knowledge has been developed everywhere in the modern societies, let us beware that we are not to love God supremely and to love our fellowmen according to the law of the nations, or according to the cultures and traditions of men. The practical doing of such love is now rampant among the so-called Christians of today. And it is not the practical doing of the word of God in the SPIRIT OF PROPHECY.\nThe True F a i t h\nSecondly: The Chart of FAITH\nSister White said: \u201cWhen Nicodemus a great teacher in Israel, came to Jesus, the Master laid before him the conditions of divine life, teaching him the very alphabet of conversion.\u201d-- 6 Testimonies, p. 154.\n\u201cThe work for these last days is a missionary work... Present truth, from the first letter of its alphabet to the last, means missionary effort.\u201d \u2013 Counsels on Health, p. 300.\nTrue religion means having the true faith, which is the belief that is followed by works, because faith without work is nil or nothing. Faith itself must be based upon the whole truth of the Bible from A --- up to --- Z. That is the whole Truth found in the SPIRIT OF PROPHECY, especially provided for the people in the time of the end. The servant of the Lord said:\n\u201cWe may not, in this life, be able to explain the meaning of every passage of Scripture; but there are no vital points to practical truth that will be clouded in mystery.\u201c -- Testimonies, vol. 2, p. 692.\nWe are now living in the time of the end. Just in this time the word of Jesus in John 16 : 13 will be completely fulfilled. Jesus said: \u201cHowbeit when he, the Spirit of Truth come, he will guide you into all Truth \u2026\u2026 and he will shown you things to come.\u201d (John 16 : 13). The Spirit of the first Pentecost is still abiding with us today, which is the Spirit of the early rain. The Spirit of the latter rain, which is prophesied by the prophet Joel in his book, chapter 2 is still in the future. With the aid of the Spirit, the Bible and all the prophetic and the parabolic words of Jesus, have now been interpreted into the SPIRIT OF PROPHECY by Mrs. E.G. White and Bro. Victor T. Houteff.\nWhy are the prophecies and the parables of Jesus being categorized as parts of the four Commandments to love God supremely, and not as parts of the six Commandments to love our fellowmen? Let us keep always in mind that God is now speaking with us in this time of the end, using those prophetic and parabolic words. As well as how He spoke to Adam and Eve in Eden, the same way He is now speaking to us to show us the way to the deliverance from sin and its consequences. If you truly and honestly love God, you will not repeat the sin of Adam and Eve in the past by neglecting His words, because the consequences will be more dangerous...\nMost of our people today in their petitions to the Lord for the forgiveness of sin, they even do not know which rules of the Law they have transgressed, because they do not as yet have the SPIRIT OF PROPHECY to be the foundation of their faith. Most people today have been more familiar with the law of the land and the culture of the community wherein they live, than with the Law of God. When they err, instead of going to the Law of God and its rules of implementations in the SPIRIT OF PROPHECY for correction to repent, they go right away to the Lord to pray for the forgiveness of sin. They think the Lord would always be willing to forgive whatever sin they have been committed in, although without any repentance on their parts. You see, how illogical it is!\nThe Old and the New Testament Prophets\nThere are two generations of God\u2019s prophets: The Old Testament prophets of Matthew 11 : 13, and the New Testament prophets of Ephesians 4 : 11 \u2013 14. Let us read together those verses here below:\n\u201cAnd he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; for the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ : till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ : that we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive.\u201d \u2014 Ephesians 4 : 11 \u2013 14. And Sister White said:\nWe all know better the Old Testament prophets, because they are the writers of the Old Testament Scriptures. However, for identifying those New Testament prophets we must first know their works. They will be identified by their works. That is why we must read again the Ephesians 4 : 11 \u2013 14 carefully, and then look at the following statement given us by Sister White :\n2. Reformation would continue until the end of human history as long as new light or new truths continue to be revealed one complemented the others until the end of time.\nThe New Testament prophets will be identified by their work to edify the body of Christ or the Church of God with the light of truth they proclaimed. So we are obliged to acknowledge Luther as the first prophet of God in the New Testament era, because he edified the body of Christ, which was the Protestant Church at its beginning. Then followed by John Knox, who was the establisher of the Presbyterian Church. And John Wesley, the establisher of the Methodist Church, and then Alexander Campbell, William Miller, Ellen G. White, and Victor T. Houteff. All of them are the reformers in the New Testament era. Let us now look at the chart!\nThe first four reformers have been tasked to restore all the truths which have been darkened by the papacy of the Roman Catholic Church during the dark ages of religion. But the last three reformers, William Miller, Sister Ellen G. White, and Brother Victor T. Houteff, besides restoring the Sabbath Truth, they also have been tasked to reveal the entire secrets of the Bible into the SPIRIT OF PROPHECY. Here is fulfilled in among us the word of Ellen G. White:\nThose things restored by the prophets are as follows:\n(1) The Just shall live by Faith, by Martin Luther,\n(2) The Holy Spirit, by John Knox,\n(3) The Grace, by John Wesley,\n(4) Baptism through immersion, by Alexander Campbell,\n(5) The Sabbath of the fourth Commandment, by Ellen G. White\nAnd those secret things revealed by the prophets in the time of the end are:\n(1) The Judgment at the end of the 2300 days of Daniel 8 : 14, which began in 1844, by William Miller\n(2) The Judgment began for the dead, by Ellen G. White\n(3) The Judgment for the Living, and the establishment of the Davidic Kingdom of the 144.000 elects of God as its first citizens, by Victor T. Houteff.\nThe Latter Days Prophets of Zachariah chapter 4.\n(Look at the slide of the projector, and read the whole prophecy of Zachariah 4, and its interpretation in a special article dealing with the subject.)\nActually this prophecy teaches us three important things, namely: (1) the procedure of how the Bible truth could be obtained: not directly from the Bible, nor to be obtained through the interpretations by the ministers of the gospel, although after being accredited by the Organization of the General Conference of SDA. But only through the SPRIT OF PROPHECY. This is the SPIRIT OF PROPHECY in the golden bowl, which is to be the foundation of the house, or the church of God in the time of the end. (2) This prophecy shows us how the last prophet of God in this time of the end obtained the Bible truth, and then by the truth itself he had been divinely called or indirectly inspired to reveal more truths to fill the golden bowl. And later only by his hands he laid the foundation of the house, which is the Church of God in the time of the end. Sister White in regard to this end had ever said:\nFrom the historical facts we know that the way Sister White got her messages was through directly inspired of God, when she was in vision. Sister White saw so many things in her visions, and then she wrote them all for us. But on the contrary Brother Victor T. Houteff was never in a trance to get his messages in vision as did Sister White. That is why Bro. Houteff should be categorized as the divinely called prophet, who was not directly inspired of God. Please see at the projector. And this is the reason why Bro. Houteff said:\n\u201cThe Bible and the books of the Spirit of Prophecy being the sole source of the Shepherd\u2019s Rod message, therefore when the Rod is taught, the Bible and the Spirit of Prophecy are taught.\u201d -- The Fundamental Beliefs, p. 27.\nThis is to prove that he has first read the Bible and the Spirit of Prophecy of Ellen G. White, prior to being divinely called to reveal all the prophecies and the parables of Jesus into his own publications by the name, THE SHEPHERD\u2019S ROD.",

        "raw_content": "\u201cUnto 2300 days, then\nshall the sanctuary be cleansed.\u201d\n(Daniel 8 : 14)\nost Seventh-day Adventists should have been familiar with this prophecy of Daniel, because this is one of the prophecies that covers a very long span of time in the history of the world, that had ever been taught in the church., that though not yet as fully and as rightly deliberated among us, there are yet several things need to be maintained. This prophecy of Daniel was just for the first time interpreted in the time of the end as those instructed to Daniel in Daniel 12 : 4 by the angel Gabriel. Therefore, with the emergence of William Miller in 1831, when he began to proclaim the events to take place ever since the beginning of the 2300 prophetic days in 457 BC up to the coming of Christ, first of His first mission in Palestine to meet the fulfillment of the prophecy of Daniel 9 : 20 \u2013 27, and secondly in A.D.1844 which they supposed to be the second coming of Christ. In the prophecy one prophetic day always stands for one year. Read Ezekiel 4 : 6. Hence, by the coming of Miller and his message in 1931, we may be assured that we have now been in the time of the end.\nWilliam Miller is well-known as the fifth reformer after Dr. Martin Luther. And therefore he is inevitably to be also one of the New Testament prophets as those outlined by Apostle Paul in Ephesians 4 : 11 \u2013 14. He came before Mrs. E.G. White came into being our prophet and the founder of our Seventh-day Adventist Church. Mrs. White herself was ever before one of the staunch believers in the Advent message proclaimed by William Miller.\nThe reckoning to find the beginning and the end of the 2300 prophetic days has been successfully achieved by Miller that the prophetic period ends in A.D.1844. Therefore, the cleansing of the sanctuary should have begun in 1844. However, regarding the sanctuary and how it should be cleansed, they obviously erred to suppose that the Lord Jesus was to come to purify the whole earth with fire. Therefore, when obviously the Lord did not come in 1844 as that scheduled in their own minds, there were a great disappointment happened among the people of God of the time. To this situation the servant of the Lord said :\nThe fulfillment of\nThe Millerite movement and their message, and the great disappointment of the time, were ever long before predicted by John the Revelator in his book the Revelation chapter 10. Let us read them here below:\n\u201cAnd I saw another mighty angel come down from heaven, clothed with a cloud : and a rainbow was upon his head, and his face was as it were the sun, and his feet as pillars of fire : And he had in his hand a little book open : and he set his right foot upon the sea, and his left foot on the earth. And he cried with a loud voice, as when a lion roareth : and when he had cried, seven thunders uttered their voices........................................................................\n\u201cAnd the angel which I saw stand upon the sea and upon the earth lifted up his hand to heaven. And sware by him that liveth for ever and ever, who created heaven, and the things that therein are, and the earth, and the things that therein are, and the sea, and the things which are therein, that there should be time no longer :\n\u201cAnd the voice which I heard from heaven spake unto me again, and said, Go and take the little book which is open in the hand of the angel which standeth upon the sea and upon the earth. And I went unto the angel, and said unto him, Give me the little book. And he said unto me, Take it, and eat it up; and it shall make thy belly bitter, but it shall be in thy mouth sweet as honey. And I took the little book out of the angel\u2019s hand, and ate it up; and it was in my mouth sweet as honey: and as soon as I had eaten it, my belly was bitter.\n\u201cAnd he said unto me, Thou must prophesy again before m a n y peoples, and nations, and tongues, and kings.\u201d \u2013 Revelation 10 : 1 \u2013 3, 5 \u2013 11\n\u2018Angel\u2019 in the book of Revelation is usually symbolic. The crying angel stands for a message, such as the angels of Revelation 14 and Revelation 18 : 1. Whereas the silent angel usually represents a people or a leadership, such as the angel of the church of the Laodiceans, which represents the General Conference of SDA leadership.\nThe angel of Revelation 10 : 1 represents a message from heaven to be proclaimed unto the entire world, either upon the sea or upon the earth. John the Revelator was first representing William Miller as the appointed servant of God to open the prophetic book of Daniel in the time of the end. He, therefore, had taken the little book out of the hand of the angel, and ate it up. In his mouth it was as sweet as honey, but later in his belly it was bitter and very disappointing. So the prophetic words of Revelation 10 have indeed met their fulfillment in the experience of William Miller and his followers in 1844, just as they failed to see Jesus come according to their expectations.\nThe message proclaimed by Miller was actually containing two main subjects :\n1. The subject on the events to transpire during the 2.300 prophetic days or years, and\n2. The subject on the sanctuary and how it shall be cleansed when the 2.300 prophetic days or years expire. After the great disappointment, which resulted from their failures of interpretation on the sanctuary and how it was to be cleansed, then came the instruction to John the Revelator, that he should have the prophecy on the sanctuary truth be prophesied again. In Revelation 10 : 11 we read : \u201cAnd he said unto me, Thou must prophesy again before m a n y peoples, and nations, and tongues, and kings.\u201d\nThat is, the message itself obliges John to once more proclaim the truth on the sanctuary and how it should be cleansed. John has represented William Miller at the first instance that had failed, then at the second instance John again represented not only Mrs. White who was tasked to proclaim the sanctuary truth once more, but even Bro. Victor T. Houteff as well to join in. You know why ? The cleansing of the sanctuary is actually to be done through a judicial process. This is the investigative judgment, which is going on in the heavenly sanctuary since 1844. Mrs. White had been tasked to first proclaim the judgment on the cases of the dead, and Bro. Houteff followed her to proclaim the judgment on the cases of the living in the church.\nInstead of proclaiming the message unto the entire world, however, the angel instructed John to restrict the proclamation of the message to only \u201cbefore m a n y (not all) peoples, and nations, and tongues, and kings.\u201d That is, Mrs. White and Bro. Houteff were instructed to prophesy a g a i n (to proclaim THE SPIRIT OF PROPHECY) to only a limited number of the world people in the Seventh - day Adventist churches.\nWe are now living in the time of the end. The investigative judgment is still going on in the heavenly sanctuary on the cases of the dead. The servant of the Lord, Bro. Victor T. Houteff said :\n\"The Judgment of the Living on earth commences with Ezekiel 9, but in heaven (in the books) after Ezekiel 9. The judgment of the Living is in two phases : the first phase is a separation that takes away the wicked from among the righteous, Ezekiel 9. The second phase is the book work when the investigation takes place, and when the sins of the righteous and the names of the wicked are blotted out of the records in Heaven. This second phase, the judicial session in heaven, is what commences after Ezekiel 9.\" - The Symbolic Code, Vol. 12, No. 3, p. 20.\nThe servant of the Lord, William Miller Had died in his\nunintentional fault\n\u201cIf William Miller could have seen the light of the third message, many things which looked dark and mysterious to him would have been explained. But his brethren professed so deep love and interest for him that he thought he could not tear away from them. His heart would incline toward the truth, and then he looked at his brethren; they opposed it. Could he tear away from those who had stood side by side with him in proclaiming the coming of Jesus? He thought they surely would not lead him astray.\n\u201cGod suffered him to fall under the power of Satan, the dominion of death, and hid him in the grave from those who were constantly drawing him from the truth. Moses erred as he was about to enter the Promised Land. So also, I saw that William Miller erred as he was soon to enter the heavenly Canaan, in suffering his influence to go against the truth. Others led him to this; others must account for it. But angels watch the precious dust of this servant of God, and he will come forth at the sound of the last trump.\u201d --- Early Writings, p. 258.\nDo you believe that Moses of old is indeed a prophet of God? The whole Christian world believes and recognizes Moses as the prophet of the Lord. And so we should have believed also in William Miller as the prophet of God. He had emerged on the stage of history in the past as a prominent messenger of the Lord, proclaiming the second coming of Christ in 1844. He had ever moved thousands of people from different denominations of his time to anticipate Christ to come in 1844. Despite up to the end of his life time, the light on the sanctuary and how it was to be cleansed after the 2300 days of Daniel\u2019s prophecy, was not as yet clear in his mind, he was obviously never against the message. Hence, he was never before implicated in the sin against the Holy Spirit, the unpardonable sin.\nThe name WILLIAM MILLER has been placed in the same row parallel with the great name of Moses, the prominent prophet of the Lord. He is now resting in the grave under the watchful eyes of the guarding angels of the Lord. He was assured to be resurrected in the first resurrection of the just of Revelation 20 : 6, which is the same resurrection mentioned by Paul in 1 Thessalonians 4 : 16, 17.\nThe mystery of God \u2026\u2026.. as He hath declared to His servants the prophets (Revelation 10 : 7)\n\u201cThe mystery of God \u2026\u2026 as He hath declared to His servants, the prophets.\u201d What does it mean ? It is none other than the mystery of the prophecies of the Old Testament prophets, which includes the prophecy of Daniel. The mystery of the prophecies of the Old Testament should have been interpreted in the time of the end, following the prophecies of Daniel. And they all must be provided us in THE SPIRIT OF PROPHECY before the voice of the trumpet of the seventh angel began to sound, to signify the close of probation in the heavenly sanctuary. John, the revelator said:\n\u201cBut in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of God should be finished, as he hath declared to his servants the prophets.\u201d \u2013 Revelation 10 : 7.\nThe proclamation of the mystery of the prophecies should be finished prior to the voice of the seventh angel when he shall begin to sound. That is, the proclamation of the mystery of the prophecies should be finished in the last period of the angel of the sixth trumpet. We are now in the period of the sixth trumpet. The mystery of the prophecies has all been interpreted into THE SPIRIT OF PROPHECY, and they are now enlightening our people everywhere in Laodicea, preparing our people for to stand when the investigative judgment in the heavenly sanctuary passes to the living in the churches on earth. After which the whole world in turn will have to be enlightened, to call out of Babylon those people of God who are also to be delivered to the kingdom in Palestine. Then comes the trumpet sound of the seventh angel, to proclaim the accomplishment of the whole process of the investigative judgment in the heavenly court of justice, which is also marking the accomplishment of the whole process of cleansing the sanctuary. John the Revelator said :\n\u201cAnd the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever.\u201d \u2013 Revelation 11 : 15.\nJesus would have accomplished His work, as the high priest before the golden altar in the heavenly sanctuary, and as a mediator in the heavenly court of justice in the sanctuary, and as a Lamb of God, He would have changed all the jobs for again to reign as King of kings, and Lord of lords for ever and ever.\nThere should be time no longer!\n\u201cAnd the angel which I saw stand upon the sea and upon the earth lifted up his hand to heaven. And sware by him that liveth for ever and ever, who created heaven, and the things that therein are, and the earth, and the things that therein are, and the sea, and the things which are therein, that there should be time no longer\u201d\u2014 Revelation 10 : 5, 6.\nHow serious is the statement from the angel that stood upon the sea and upon the earth, that he sware by the name of Christ, the Creator of the universe. Now since the angel himself symbolizes a message, then it must be inevitably the message from Christ Himself, the Testimony of Jesus Christ, which is THE SPIRIT OF PROPHECY (Revelation 12 : 17, 19 : 10).\n\u201cThe book that was sealed was not the book of Revelation, but that portion of the prophecy of Daniel which related to the last days. The Scripture says, \u201cBut thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end : many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased\u201d (Daniel 12 : 4). When the book was opened, the proclamation was made, \u201cT i m e s h a l l b e n o l o n g e r.\u201c (See Revelation 10 : 6). The book of Daniel is now unsealed, and the revelation made by Christ to John is to come to all inhabitants of the earth. By the increase of knowledge a people is to be prepared to stand in the latter days.\u201d-- Selected Messages, Book 2, p. 105.\nThe prophecy of Daniel which related to the last days has now been revealed. Even the book of Revelation as the complement of the book of Daniel (Read The Acts of the Apostles, p. 585) should have been revealed also consequently. Therefore the proclamation that was made, \u201cTime shall be no longer,\u201d should have come from THE SPIRIT OF PROPHECY, to be addressed first to you and me in the Laodicea Church of Seventh day Adventist. By the increase of knowledge of THE SPIRIT OF PROPHECY a people of 144.000 in number is to be prepared to stand in the latter days, when the cleansing of the sanctuary in heaven passes to the cleansing in the Laodicea Church on earth. The servant of the Lord said :\n\u201cThe Judgment of the Living on earth commences with Ezekiel 9, but in heaven (in the books) after Ezekiel 9. The judgment of the Living is in two phases : the first phase is a separation that takes away the wicked from among the righteous, Ezekiel 9. The second phase is the book work when the investigation takes place, and when the sins of the righteous and the names of the wicked are blotted out of the records in Heaven. This second phase, the judicial session in heaven, is what commences after Ezekiel 9.\u201d \u2013 The Symbolic Code, Vol. 12, No. 3, p. 20.\nWe are now living in the time of the end. The mystery of God in all the prophecies of the Old Testament prophets is now provided us in THE SPIRIT OF PROPHECY. This is the last message from Jesus to plead with us, to prepare us as a people to stand in the latter days of this time of the end. In the prophetic words the Revelator said : The angel that stand upon the sea and upon the earth sware by Him, the Creator of the universe, that there should be time no longer. Therefore, this is the last angel indeed that symbolizes the Testimony of Jesus Christ, which is THE SPIRIT OF PROPHECY. And this is the last message of the eleventh hour call, that first to prepare the laymen of 144.000 in number, as a people to stand in the latter days, and then to empower them to proclaim the message of the eleventh-hour call to the whole world up to the sixth hour, sunset, which is .the close of probation in the heavenly sanctuary. The servant of the Lord, Bro. Victor T. Houteff said :\n\u201cIf the leaders in God\u2019s church at the present time should accept the eleventh hour call, it would be out of the ordinary. But should they reject it, God cannot start a new movement, f o r t h e r e i s t i m e n o l o n g e r.\u201d \u2013 The Shepherd\u2019 Rod, vol. 2, 233.\nAre you still doubting, Brother, Sister ? The angel that sware by the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, the Creator of the universe, warned us positively, that T i m e S h a l l B e N o L o n g e r for another message to come after this. THE SPIRIT OF PROPHECY is obviously the last message for today.\nLegacy from the fault of Miller, Why is it not as yet discarded ?\n\u201cIf William Miller could have seen the light of the third message, many things which looked dark and mysterious to him would have been explained.\u201d -- Early Writings, p. 258.\nDue to the fact that Miller did not as yet see the light of the third angel\u2019s message, which is the Spirit of Prophecy by Mrs White, that he had made a great blunder in proclaiming to the world the second coming of Christ in 1844 to purify the earth with fire from heaven. Nevertheless he was later forgiven by the Lord, because he was not implicated in any sin against the truth. It has been testified of him that if he could have seen the light of the third message, many things which looked dark and mysterious to him would have been explained, and they would have not fallen into such deep disappointment.\nBut how is it with the leadership at the General Conference of SDA and their staunch followers in the world today, upon whom the third angel\u2019s message by Mrs. White is now enlightening so abundantly? Do they not care to the fact, that due to the great disappointment of Miller and his people, the Lord had sent John to make known that the mystery of God, even on the cleansing of the sanctuary must be prophesied again? The mystery of God as He had declared to His servants the old Testament prophets should have been finished (interpreted and proclaimed to the world) before the close of probation, that is, before the accomplishment of the cleansing of the heavenly sanctuary.\nN o w, after the prophecy of Daniel which related to the last days is revealed, and even the whole mystery of God as He had declared to His servants the prophets be proclaimed in the churches through THE SPIRIT OF PROPHECY, then to the rejecters will apply the warning: T h e r e s h a l l b e t i m e n o l o n g e r!\nObviously THE SPIRIT OF PROPHECY will be the only last message of the eleventh-hour call, to be proclaimed within its allotted limited time before the close of probation at the twelfth-hour, sunset. This Eleventh-hour Call is to prepare a people from among the laymen in the churches, to stand when the cleansing is first to take place among the living in the SDA churches as prophesied in Ezekiel nine.\nTo conclude we have quoted for you herewith a diagram of the prophecy of the 2300 days of Daniel 8 : 14, and its concise explanation as provided us by the author of the Book, \u201cTHE ORIGIN AND PROGRESS OF SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTIST.\n\u201cThe heavy line represents the full 2300 year-day period, the longest prophetic period in the Bible. Beginning in B.C. 457 when the decree was given to restore and build Jerusalem (Ezra 7 : 11 \u2013 26; Daniel 9 : 25), seven weeks (49 years) are measured off to indicate the time occupied in this work of restoration. These, however, are a part of the sixty-nine weeks (483 years) that were to reach to Messiah, the Anointed One. Christ was anointed in 27 A.D., at His baptism. Matthew 3 : 13 \u2013 17 ; Acts 10 : 38. In the midst of the seventieth week (31 A.D.), Christ was crucified, or \u201ccut off,\u201d which marked the time when the sacrifices and oblations of the earthly sanctuary were to cease. Daniel 9 : 26, 27. The remaining three and one-half years of this week reach to 34 A.D., or to the stoning of Stephen, and the great persecution of the church at Jerusalem which followed. Acts 7 : 59; 8 : 1. This marked the close of the seventy weeks, or 490 years, allotted to the Jewish people.\nBut the seventy weeks are a part of the 2300 days; and as they (the seventy weeks) reach to 34 A.D., the remaining 1810 years of the 2300-day period must reach to 1844, when the work of judgment, or cleansing of the heavenly sanctuary, was to begin. Revelation 14 : 6, 7. Then special light began to shine upon the whole sanctuary subject, and Christ\u2019s mediatorial or priestly work in it.\nFour great events, therefore, are located by this great prophetic period, --- the first advent, the crucifixion, the rejection of the Jewish people as a nation, and the beginning of the work of final judgment.\u201d --- The Origin and Progress of Seventh-day Adventist, p. 142.\nThe author of the book entitled \u201cORIGIN AND PROGRESS OF SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTIST\u201d is none other than The General Conference of SDA. The book was printed by The Review and Herald Publishing Association in USA, and was in possession of the copyright, 1925.\nThis is to show us that even back in 1925 ever since, the leadership of the General Conference of SDA should have fully understood, that the cleansing of the sanctuary ever since 1844 should be carried out through a process of investigative judgment in the heavenly sanctuary. But due to their negligence to investigate further into the new light, presented to them through the message of the angel of Revelation 18 : 1 by Brother Victor T. Houteff ever since 1929, then instead of teaching us what the sanctuary was and the way it should be cleansed, they even then led us back to repeat the fault of Miller by preparing us for the second coming of Christ. And this is the reason why our people are now in a race to compete with all other fallen churches out side to see Jesus at His second coming in the air, without the least thinking of how to put priority to cleansing of their bodies and souls nor of their churches, from sin against the rules of implementation of the Law in the SPIRIT OF PROPHECY.",

Center for Brain Health UBC Hospital 2211 Wesbrook Mall Van BC Canada V6T 2B5.\nCurcumin (diferuloylmethane) is a major active constituent of turmeric (Curcuma longa) [1] with an expansive pharmacology including anti-inflammatory [1], anti-carcinogenic [2], wound healing [3] and antibacterial [4] to name just a few features. Its safety is well established by centuries of use in food and traditional medicine [5], [6], [7]. Subcellular signalling proteins such as nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NF-kB) [8], c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) [9], Protein Kinase C (PKC) [10], AKT and mechanistic (mammalian) target of rapamycin (mTOR) signalling [11], [12], and mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) [13] have made a sizeable list of curcumin\u2019s pharmacological targets that continues to evolve. Additionally, these targets are central to the pathology of diseases that are prolific in society today such as neurological disease [14], [15], autoimmunity [16], [17], cardiovascular disease [18], [19] and even cancer [20]. This all makes for a rather exciting story for curcumin as a potential medicinal agent.\nThe very fact that the list of targets and mechanisms of activity by curcumin continues to grow is, itself, demonstrative of our incomplete understanding of the fundamental underlying mechanism by which curcumin pharmacology modulates disease pathology. Studies have shown curcumin to inhibit growth factors and growth factor receptors as well as the downstream signals including PI3K and extracellular-signal activated kinase (Erk); and oncogenes such as c-jun and c-myc [21], [22]. The extract is shown to inhibit expression of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and erythroblastosis oncogene B (ErbB2) [23]; inhibit enzymes such as cyclooxygenase (COX) and lipoxygenase (LOX) [24], [25], [26], [27]; facilitate transcription factors such as nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor (Nrf2) [28] that can contribute to endogenous antioxidant status and protect cells from oxidation; while it inhibits activator protein \u2013 1 (AP-1) and tumor necrosis factor \u03b1 (TNF\u03b1) [29], [30]. Curcumin is shown to inhibit cytokines such as interleukins 1, 2, 6 and 8 [30], [25], [31], [32]. The extract is also shown to suppress Interleukin (IL)-12 in macrophages [33] while promoting the anti-inflammatory IL-10 [34]. How is all this possible and how can this be harnessed and controlled?\nCurcumin comprises a subset of active constituents. The three main naturally occurring curcuminoid analogues found within the curcumin extract are diferuloylmethane (curcumin I), desmethoxycurcumin (curcumin II) and bis-desmethoxycurcumin (curcumin III) [35], [36] as seen in Figure 1. They typically exist naturally in proportions that range between 65-80% curcumin I, 10-25% curcumin II and 0.2-3.0% curcumin III [37]. Curcumin delivers a polypharmacology that exhibits a narrower range of activity than the whole herb [38], [39]. However, the curcumin extract is certainly not maximally selective as it is still delivering multiple active constituents each potentially exhibiting a polypharmacology of their own.\nThere is yet another component of the pharmacology that may be contributing to curcumin\u2019s polypharmacological nature. The sub-constituent curcuminoids readily give rise to auto-oxidative degradation products [40], [41], [42], some of which we know to exhibit pharmacological activity that we may have attributed to the curcuminoids in the past. Despite the conflicting findings on these curcuminoid by-products, they may be playing a monumental role in the pharmacology of this remarkable extract; a role that needs to be viewed with a more focussed lens.\n2 Clinical Benefits of Curcumin\nSince long ago, oral dosing of curcumin with as little as 20 mg three times daily has been shown to improve acute and chronic hepatitis [43]. Curcumin is a potent cholegogue inducing gall-bladder contraction and bile elimination [44] conducive to bladder stone management. However, the more recent understanding of curcumin\u2019s anti-inflammatory pharmacology and what this means in the context of disease management has elevated interest in the extract as a potential treatment for many modern epidemics.\nCurcumin is also shown clinically to enhance cytotoxicity of various drug-resistant strains of cancer [45]. In clinical trials patients with various cancer-related risks including bladder cancer, cervical cancer, intestinal metaplasia and oral leukoplakia were treated with systematically escalating doses up to 8000 mg daily of curcumin for three months [46]. Results were indicative of a significant anti-cancer effect by the curcumin treatment with relatively little to no toxicity. In murine models curcumin is also shown to ameliorate functional and structural abnormalities associated with cancer drug cisplatin-induced neuropathy [47].\nIn the treatment of orbital pseudotumors curcumin produces significant positive results. After following these patients for as long as two years at three month intervals, four patients recovered completely among five who stayed in the study to completion. One patient experienced complete regression but with some limited movement as a residual symptom [48]. The treatment of psoriasis by oral curcumin administration is shown to produce an excellent therapeutic outcome in two patients encouraging the need for larger controlled trials [49]. Topical application of curcumin preparation shows curcumin treatment to produce a more profound resolution than calcipotriol or non-treated (control) patients with various degrees of psoriasis [50].\nA twenty-four week double blind placebo-controlled study resulted in an inconclusive position on curcumin\u2019s effects on Alzheimer\u2019s patients [51]. Curcumin use did show signs of \u03b2-Amyloid changes in serum indicative of \u03b2-Amyloid disaggregation and a tendency towards fewer adverse events for patients using curcumin. However no improvement in cognitive performance in the curcumin group over controls is established. However, since the control group did not shown cognitive decline during the period of the trial, the study design will need to be modified to be able to better evaluate these outcomes; better controls, larger groups and longer trials are expected requirements acknowledged by the authors.\nHowever, researchers have not given up on the extract when it comes to amyloidogenic diseases. In vivo murine studies show that curcumin does cross the blood brain barrier [52], [53]and binds to amyloid plaques when orally fed or directly injected into the carotid artery [54]. When coupled to the known in vitro results associated with Alzheimer\u2019s disease biomarkers these findings are suggestive of efficacy against Alzheimer\u2019s pathology [55]. Other studies show curcumin improves cognitive function in patients with Alzheimer\u2019s disease [53]. More research is required to further define curcumin\u2019s clinical efficacy and mechanisms involved in the framework of Alzheimer\u2019s pathology.\nCurcumin is shown to deliver anti-depressant like activity similar to that of fluoxetine and imipramine [56] and the mechanism might involve increasing brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) [57]. On the other hand curcumin\u2019s anti-depressant-like activity maybe a function of inhibitory activity on IL-6 and IL-1 [35], [58] since dysregulation of these cytokines and the systemic inflammatory activity that can rise from this may contribute to depression pathology [59], [60].\nCurcumin is shown to inhibit p300-HAT to improve cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure in animal models [61] [62]. Curcumin delivers better results than diciofenac sodium in a recent study of patients with active rheumatoid arthritis comparing these therapies [6], [63]. Curcumin appears to correct cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance(CTFR) defects associated with cystic fibrosis (CF) in murine models [64]. Curcumin administration stimulates muscle regeneration after traumatic injury [65]. Curcumin improves COPD-like airway inflammation [66]. All those in a small group of five ulcerative colitis patients improved using 550 mg curcumin twice daily as treatment for a month followed by a month of three daily 550 mg doses [7].\nCurcumin pharmacology looks promising to say the least but these remarkable results are also in conflict with similar studies showing lack of success in clinical and preclinical models with curcumin treatment [67] such as in depression models where curcumin\u2019s effects are found to not be significant [68]; where in other independent studies of CTFR (CF) defects curcumin\u2019s benefits were not repeatable [69]; and in research using high curcumin doses to treat inflammatory conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis patients experienced improvements as much as but not more than those receiving phenylbutazone [7].\n3 Curcumin Pharmacokinetics\n3.1 Curcumin Bioavailability\nDespite the abundance of experimental and anecdotal clinical evidence demonstrating the health benefits of orally routed curcumin, limited to no serum curcumin is found in test subjects even at extremely high dosing that exceeds 10,000 mg daily [70] [71]. The reasons for the low tissue or serum availability appear to be due to multiple compounding factors including low bioavailability[72] and expeditious metabolic degradation[73] that causes rapid elimination of the curcuminoids [72]. The naturally occurring curcuminoid analogues are highly hydrophobic [74] [75], a characteristic thought to play a major role in bioavailability [72]. Overcoming the hydrophobic characteristics of the curcuminoids resolves only one of the challenges, however. There are other curcuminoid issues related to pharmacokinetics that are outstanding and are likely far more central to the understanding and efficacy of curcuminoid pharmacology than the bioavailability limitation.\nThe low bioavailability of curcumin is assumed due to the lack of serum curcuminoids [70] and the common excessive efflux of some curcumin preparations in fecal matter upon oral administration [76]. In comparison with intraperitoneal administration of pure curcumin extract which excludes the tumerone fraction, 75% of orally administered curcumin extract was excreted in feces with more than 10% found in bile [76] in a mouse model. In human patients, Cheng et al report that even with 8000 mg of oral curcumin administered daily, serum concentrations were found to be 1.77 +/- 1.87 microM [46]. In colorectal patients taking up to 3600 mg of curcumin orally daily neither curcumin nor its metabolites were found at quantifiable levels in plasma, blood and urine [77]. In a human Phase I clinical trial, Sharma et al found curcumin and its metabolites in plasma in the 10 nM range after oral dosing as high as 3600 mg daily [70]. In the treatment of pancreatic cancer using orally administered curcumin plasma curcumin levels are found to range between 22-41 ng/ml [71].\nPoor curcumin/curcuminoid bioavailability is thought to be caused by the highly hydrophobic property of the phenolic compounds [75]. Many strategies have been applied to overcome the hydrophobicity of curcuminoids in an attempt to improve bioavailability such as interacting them with beta-casein (micellar casein) to improve solubility in aqueous mediums [78]; encapsulation of curcuminoids in hydrophobically modified starch [79], and phosphatidylcholine interactions with curcuminoids to enhance bioavailability and delivery [80],[81]. Administration of complexed curcuminoid-phosphatidylcholine is in fact shown to deliver a higher serum payload of curcumin over curcumin powder alone [82]. However, more detailed studies might be needed to determine if the incremental serum curcuminoids found with this reacted curcuminoid complex is a function of improved solubility and bioavailability. Could the improved survival of serum curcuminoids be a function of recipient-induced alteration in hepatic enzyme activity that may reduce the clearance rate of curcuminoids from blood? In addition, feed type [83], fiber content [84] and many other factors can also play into gastric emptying rate [85] gastrointestinal transition rate and macronutrient digestion and absorption [86]. This all influences drug transition rate and bioavailability as well and are not always fully accounted for in these studies.\nThe bioavailability limitation of curcumin, however, may be also overstated because studies also show that curcumin can efficiently find its way into serum at concentrations that are rather significant [51]. Thirty-four subjects of a six-month trial using powdered curcumin versus encapsulated curcumin presents a different bioavailability story. This study shows a mean plasma curcumin level of 490 nM amongst both curcumin groups but an interestingly higher (940 nM) level for the curcumin capsule group over the group fed curcumin powder at the daily dose of 1.0 gram daily. A group using 4.0 grams daily was also evaluated but serum curcumin results with this higher dose was not significantly higher.\nHowever, it\u2019s interesting to note that while curcumin levels differed, levels of tetrahydrocurcumin, ferulic acid and vanillic acid did not differ between patients using powdered curcumin and those using capsules. The powder form could be performing less effectively due to the need to mix it in aqueous or other solutions that allow the auto-degradation process to start in on curcuminoid degradation long before it even enters the lumen. Interestingly, serum levels of curcumin could only be detected in the presence of glucuronidase inhibitor [51]. Here we have a clear indication that bioavailability of curcumin can be functional and maybe, the serum limitations are more attributable to shortfalls in curcumin formula design and post absorption modification and degradation that play a larger role in serum survival.\nFigure 3 presents a schematic that highlights multiple sources of curcumin/oid degradation that could affect curcumin \u201capparent\u201d bioavailability. This degradation starts with the type of curcumin delivery form or formula and carries through to the final reagents and solvents used in analysis.\n3.2 Curcumin Metabolism\nIt is well understood that metabolic degradation of curcumin is rapid and efficient. In the preliminary study by Baum et al [51] it was determined that serum curcumin could be increased within 1.5 hours of oral administration with food to 250 nM and to 270 nM by four hours with water only. By twenty-four hours post-administration serum curcumin levels fell to 60 nM. No significant differences were found between the groups taking 1.0 gram curcumin daily versus the group taking 4.0 grams daily. This study proves to be one that highlights the true potential of curcuminoid bioavailability; it can be viable for a properly formulated curcumin treatment. Degradation and metabolic modification, on the other hand, may be the more difficult challenge. In fact, in this same study, at 2.5 hours after oral curcumin administration serum ferulic acid is found to be 110 +/- 20 nM, vanillic acid is 50+/-20 nM, total curcuminoids found to be 1100+/-260 nM, tetrahydrocurcumin is found to be 440+/-100 nM, and no vanillin is found.\nEnzymatic metabolism of curcuminoids starts in the intestinal lumen and is quickly followed by hepatic enzyme activity [87], [88]. Although it is not clear whether Phase I metabolic enzymes such as the P450 CYPs are directly involved in curcuminoid metabolism, their influence may be indirect as explained further here. Once in the blood, for example, curcuminoid survival is prolonged or protected by serum albumin [89] which likely forms micellar systems with the systemic curcuminoid. Cationic micelles of curcuminoid [90], for instance, which can be achieved with beta casein are not only said to improve bioavailability but also protect the curcuminoids from premature degradation [78]. Binding of curcuminoids in vitro to bovine serum albumin (BSA), likely in the protein\u2019s hydrophobic pockets, results in a curcumin-BSA complex with improved curcumin stability [91]. In fact, curcumin solubility is increased as much as 10-fold in the presence of BSA [92].\nIn vivo, curcuminoids are quickly converted to dihydrocurcumin, tetrahydrocurcumin, hexahydrocurcumin, and hexahydrocurcuminol. These metabolites are quickly further subjected to glucuronation and sulfation to form curcumin glucuronide, curcumin sulfate, dihdrocurcumin glucuroside, tetrahydrocurcumin glucuronoside, and hexahydrocurcumin glucuronoside [93], [94], [73], [87]. This likely involves Phase II metabolic enzymes \u2013 UDP-glucuronosyltransferases (UGT) and Sulfotransferase enzymes (SULT) [95]. However, the literature is not black and white in this context. To throw another curve in the context of metabolic degradation it must be considered that curcumin metabolic degradation and elimination is shown in some studies to play out differently in the human versus rat model. The human intestinal and hepatic cytosol is more likely to conjugate curcumin and produce the tetrahydrocurcumin metabolite in place of curcumin more abundantly than the rat model does [96]. What this means to total pharmacological potency is unexplored to date but what has been a problem up until now is the direct extrapolation from murine models to human models with lack of scientific support. More work needs to focus on unravelling this mystery.\nThere is no strong evidence to show that curcumin is subject to metabolism by P450. However, the Phase I P450 and the Phase II enzymes tend to aggregate at the membrane and influence each other. P450 (CYP), for instance, interacts intimately with UDP-glucuronosyltransferases (UGT) responsible for glucuronidation to form heteromers at the plasma membrane [97] that result in their competition for substrates and down- and up-regulation of activity [97]. It is possible that any substance or influence that affects P450 activity, such as changes in membrane phospholipid constitution, may indirectly influence curcumin\u2019s metabolism [98]. Phosphatidylcholine in curcumin complexes that has been shown to improve solubility and bioavailability of curcumin [81] may also affect P450\u2019s since membrane phosphatidylcholine is thought to be the anchoring phospholipid for at least some P450 enzymes such as 2B4 [99].\nFailure to detect functional levels of curcumin in the plasma after a steady oral loading period or administration by other route may also be attributed to instability and non-enzymatic degradation of the curcuminoids. Various human and rat studies demonstrate a short half-life for the curcuminoids [100], [101]. Researches have shown that curcumin is more stable in solutions at pH < 7.0 while it tends to be less stable in physiological pH of 7.8 or more [102] characteristic of the distal small intestine. The curcumin non-enzymatic degradation products frequently reported are ferulic aldehyde, trans-6-(40-hydroxy-30- methoxyphenyl)-2, 4-dioxo-5-hexenal, feruloyl methane, ferulic acid and vanillin [102]. Ferulic acid and vanillin, are considered very small phenolic molecules with molecular weights of 151.15 g/mole [103] and 66.8 g/mole [104] respectively. They are soluble in aqueous solution and far more stable than the curcuminoids, themselves, in the biological medium [105], [106], [107]. The status of these non-enzymatic auto-oxidative degradation products is also in question and in conflict in the literature as the ones expected to be the major products in the past, vanillin and ferulic acid [42], are said to more recently be preceded by a bicyclopentadione product or other by-products that may not have yet been precisely identified [102], [108], [109], [105]. Too much conflicting data has been presented in this context and although the multiple view-points are great to see for meta-analysis it must be considered that these conflicting positions on the status of the degradation by-products could also be a function of the variable conditions being used to study the curcuminoids. Variable pH, temperature, serum protein and other conditions that, if even mildly varied, result in varying the stability, degradation dynamic and by-product yield. These variables could factor into the equation at multiple levels when it comes to in vitro work; but even with in vivo work the feed types, curcumin specifications and animal condition all play a changeable role in the outcome. Analysis of the blood work extracted including reagents used to treat final yields also influence the stability of the retained target curcuminoids; biochemicals we now know to be extremely vulnerable to degradation. All of these factors as shown in Figure 3 contribute to the variable results and inconsistencies we see in the literature. Somewhere in all this conflict, however, treatment with the right curcumin therapy successfully delivers relief to patients of many diseases. Ultimately, however, we need to pin down the pharmacokinetics and isolated pharmacology of the curcuminoids and their downstream by-products in order to eliminate inconsistencies and produce a reliable curcumin-treatment. 3.3 Curcuminoids or their degradation product?\nThe enzymatic metabolism of curcumin is shown in some studies to reduce curcumin\u2019s pharmacological potency significantly [110], [111]. However, other studies indicate that at least one of these metabolic by-products could be contributing to curcumin\u2019s polypharmacology in tissues [112]. Tetrahydrocurcumin is purported to deliver a significant anti-inflammatory pharmacology [110], [111], [113]. In fact, more recent studies are pointing to this reduced derivative of curcumin having antioxidant activity and antihyperlipidemic effects at least as potent as curcumin [114]. Tetrahydrocurcumin is shown in some studies to perform well as an inhibitor of NF-kappa-B and protector of oxidative damage after ischemic episodes [115]. While it is shown to deliver more anti-inflammatory activity than curcumin in a carrageenan-induced murine inflammatory model [116] it performs not nearly as well as curcumin in other studies [117]. Other studies again, show varied activity with curcumin performing better than tetrahydrocurcumin on targets like COX-2 inhibition [118].\nAside from metabolic degradation as a factor altering curcuminoid pharmacology, the curcuminoids can exist as different tautomers \u2013 the enol and keto tautomers, [119], [120] as shown in Figure 2. The keto form predominates in a solution of pH 3-7 while at a pH above 7.8 the enol form predominates in solution [121]. The enol form (>pH 7.8) serves as an electron donor while the keto form (pH 3-7) serves as a hydrogen atom donor; although both forms can serve as antioxidant. Nevertheless, the environment in which the curcuminoid exists influences its electrochemical properties factoring, yet again, as another source of pharmacological variability.\nThe story with regards to the non-enzymatic auto-degradation products of curcumin is even more colourful and adds even more mystery. Curcuminoids also undergo non-enzymatic auto-oxidative degradation and as we\u2019ve seen this is more likely to occur at pH> 7.0 [102]. It was shown that as much as 90% of curcuminoids are degraded within 30 minutes in a serum-free medium at pH 7 at 37oC [122]. Even in the presence of serum, 50% of curcumin is degraded to its degradation by-products within eight hours [102]. The true nature of this degradation yield is still not conclusively understood.\nResearch by Martelli et al show that curcumin activates the transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily V member 1 (TRPV1) also known as the vanilliod receptor 1. This receptor is the target of vanillin, a degradation product of curcumin. By this mechanism vanillin and/or curcumin could be inducing symptomatic relief of Dinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (DNBS) -induced colitis in mice [123]. Multiple studies point to NF-kappa-B inhibition by curcumin and this being the root activity that results in subsequent IL-1, IL-6 and IL-8 inhibition [124], [125] [126]. Similarly, vanillin can also inhibit NF-kappa-B and caspase-1 [127]. COX is inhibited by vanillin [127]. In fact, vanillin\u2019s effects are COX-2 specific delivering the beneficial pharmacology associated with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. Interestingly, curcumin is shown to inhibit COX as well [128], [129]. Kim et al also show that vanillin protects rat neurons from oxidative stress [130]. Curcumin does the same by inducing expression of antioxidant defensive genes through Nrf2 activation [131], [28].\nFerulic acid, another curcumin degradation product, displays pharmacological activity similar to curcumin\u2019s as well. Studies demonstrate that ferulic acid supplementation can facilitate hypotension through NO-mediated vasodilation [132]; a result also seen with curcumin administration [133]. Ferulic acid is shown to have significant antitumor activity [134] as does curcumin [135]. Ferulic acid is shown to inhibit NF-kappa -B [136]. Curcumin has been shown to destabilize preformed \u03b2-amyloid protein including inhibition of soluble oligomer and fibril aggregation to subsequently or also independently reduce associated neurotoxicity by these proteins [137], [138] [54], [139], [140], [141]. Ferulic acid is shown to have similar activities in vitro [142], [130] [139, 143].\nSimilar pharmacological activities of curcumin and its oxidative degradation products strongly suggests a contribution by curcumin\u2019s auto-oxidative degradation products to curcumin pharmacology in vivo. This may explain the therapeutic results with curcumin administration despite low bioavailability or more accurately low serum levels of the curcuminoid analogues. The fact that we experience efficacious results with oral curcumin administration with or without the identification of significant serum curcuminoid concentrations, supports the notion that vanillin, ferulic acid and/or other degradation products of curcumin may be responsible at least partially for the clinical benefits of curcuminoids.\nThe variety of experimental models used to investigate curcumin includes in vitro and in vivo studies using various representations of turmeric and the common extract, curcumin. Curcumin\u2019s pleiotropic properties certainly make it a versatile molecule. The question is whether this pleiotropy is a function of one curcuminoid analogue on multiple targets, the naturally inherent three curcuminoid analogues, the degradation products, or all of these factors? A better understanding of the complex nature of this activity can help us decode and identify the active components contributing to the polypharmacology. With this mapping, improved selectivity by curcumin-based drugs can be established and improved indication-specific drug designs with improved reliability and repeatability can be created. As we have it today, too many variables are at play.\nOne of the challenges faced today with respect to curcumin acceptance in mainstream medicine is its polypharmacology or lack of clear cellular targeting. Drug target selectivity is central to allopathic drug design for reasons that are valid [144], [145]. However, an emerging drug paradigm that centers on polypharmacology [145] [146] to produce a synergistic therapeutic outcome is gaining some momentum for reasons that may also be valid. In essence, polypharmacology as a treatment model is already established in mainstream allopathic medicine and is in use to treat many complex disorders today including autoimmune disease [147], [148] and especially cancers [146], [149]. Interestingly, curcumin falls into this class of drug perfectly, however, in order to better understand the entire scope of this polypharmacology by curcumin much more work needs to be done.\nIt is evident that curcumin extracts are made up of multiple naturally occurring curcuminoid analogues that must be studied in isolation in order for the distinct pharmacological features for each to be better defined. This may help formulators produce condition-specific products using the curcuminoid analogues with greater precision. In addition, it must be made very clear whether we have an influence in the in vivo model by the auto-oxidative by-products of curcumin or any of the enzymatic degradation products such as tetrahydrocurcumin. The level of contribution not only as constituents to serum bioactives but more accurately the tissue distribution of these potentially active degradation products must be defined.\nSerum curcumin levels appear in the literature to not correlate well with efficacy of curcumin-based treatment protocols. Despite low to no serum curcumin upon oral administration in some studies efficacy against various human diseases from cancer to neurological has been well documented [72]. However, as we\u2019ve seen some studies show that serum curcumin levels can be increased significantly with properly designed curcumin therapies. In addition, as serum curcumin/oid levels rise, in just hours the curcumin auto-oxidative degradation by-products can accompany the parent molecules in systemic circulation to contribute synergistic and/or additive pharmacology. This cannot be discounted.\nOther challenges seem to compound the curcuminoid mystery including the lack of curcumin extract standardization. Curcumin extracts are notoriously comprised of varying proportions of the naturally inherent curcuminoid analogues. This in itself, produces another layer of inconsistency when testing one curcumin standard against others. Lastly, the reports of the curcuminoid pharmacokinetics in the literature are conflicting and this is expected to be a function of the varying conditions influencing degradation of the variable curcuminoid proportions in multiple additive ways starting with formulation design and delivery form of the curcumin-therapy. This variability continues based on transition time and oxidative status in the lumen to interactions of different biochemicals used in the analysis of blood work as portrayed in Figure 3. Our very attempts to isolate, extract and assay these compounds produces degradation vulnerability that impairs accurate evaluation of curcumin/oid pharmacokinetics.\nIn fact, we believe the very in vivo pharmacologically active biochemicals have been grossly missed in the past but have not been considered even in tissue distribution analysis \u2013 an endeavor that is so easily measured if one accepted the auto-degradation by-products as a plausible source for, at least, part of the curcumin/oid pharmacology. These by-products are relatively stable in aqueous solution where the parent curcuminoids are not. We believe this to more than just plausible; it is cautiously expected to be highly likely.\nThe future requires a completely different outlook; first off by accepting polypharmacology or Network Pharmacology as a viable drug model by which the accepted Systems Biology is addressed with a pharmacological model that fits it like a glove. Secondly, the possibility that the degradation by-products are playing a significant role in one way or another in the expansive curcumin polypharmacology should be seriously investigated. The role that tetrahydrocurcumin might be playing must also be considered. Tissue distribution analysis must be employed with this objective in mind; and with clear consideration of the degradation potential inherent in the analytical process, itself. After this dust settles we\u2019ll get to a starting line and determine what it is we are really studying and with this curcumin may get the credit it deserves even in mainstream medicine.\nFranco Cavaleri1 and William Jia2, 1) Faculty of Medicine; Department of Experimental Medicine, 2) Division of Neurosurgery, Department of Surgery.\nConflict of Interest Statement.

A key modern tool is an algebraic structure called the 'Fukaya category', which is associated to a single such object. Geometric relations between the manifolds are reflected in algebraic interactions between the categories. There has been a great deal of recent progress in understanding such relations. This workshop will bring together many of the key workers in this rapidly developing field to share ideas and set further directions of exploration.",

        "raw_content": "35 Pounds Of Star Wars Blueprints Available Now\nWe all know the Star Wars community is huge and that the following is quite an amazing group of people. Not only do some of them create their very own gear to live out the life of any Star Wars character, but they also know very well that whatever is released by the George Lucas camp is a sound investment. For example, if you would have bought the Millennium Falcon toy when it was first released, and kept it in the sealed box, you would get a quite nice little check if you were to sell it today. The Star Wars toys are literally worth gold today if compared to when they were first released.\nSo now that the Lucas company is preparing to release one of the greatest behind the scenes books of all time, fans are of course gearing up to stand in line for the first copies of it. And stand in line you will have to do because there will only be 5,000 copies of this 35 pound book of awesomeness, and they will be hand-numbered.\nThe first 125 copies will be signed by the three remaining academy award winners from the Star Wars movie, but those books will cost you $1,000 each. The remaining 4,875 books will only cost you $500, but you won\u2019t be able to brag about having George Lucas\u2019s signature in it. I guess that\u2019s the price you will have to pay for being poor and not being able to serve your master to the fullest. What the hell, The Blueprints (which the book will be called) is probably worth it anyway since it will have some never before seen stuff in it that will surely make any Star Wars fan cry out in happiness.",

        "raw_content": "Producing a Television Show During My Two-Week Vacation\nWhat is that special time of year almost every working human looks forward to? Tax season? NO! VACATION TIME!\nRegardless of where you live or work on this small planet, one thing most of us working folk look forward to is the time we can unplug and unwind doing whatever it is we love doing. Some like the beach experience, some like the hiking experience, and some like the skiing experience\u2026 I personally like the \u201ccreate and produce a new TV show in 14 days experience\u201d.\nA TV Show?! Why? You are not a producer!\nA couple years back, I had the idea to create a television show that complemented the marketing efforts of my Greek real estate website, GreekPropertyExchange.com. My website was not only a tool to help private sellers and professional agents with real estate in Greece to better promote them internationally through my network in 100+ countries, but more of a promotional tool for Greece as a tourist and investment destination. Building off this personal desire to encourage all that is positive with my motherland, I decided to step up the marketing efforts of my baby and create a web show to better support this.\nEnter - Hellenic Home Hunting\nHellenic Home Hunting is a show documenting the journey of Greek-diaspora families traveling back to Greece to buy vacation homes \u2013 capturing the process and educating the viewer along the way. This show was created to help people better prepare and to be aware of all that is involved with the searching and buying process in Greece.\nWhat was originally slated as a web series quickly turned into a television series. After filming the pilot episode over 2 days using a small, yet professional, film crew, a willing Greek-Canadian family with three children and a supportive duo of real estate agents from the Kalamata region, the filming of the first official episode (and pilot) of Hellenic Home Hunting was completed. Phew!\nAfter returning to New York City with my beautiful girlfriend (and now wife) following that trip, the editing process began. I ended up finding a fantastic and capable editor in Athens that was able to communicate everything I envisioned into the 30 minute pilot episode that I would later use to pitch in marketing my brand, my TV show concept and to open the doors to all the major TV networks in Greece \u2013 SKA\u2019I\u2019, MEGA, ANT1 and ERT.\nSo, how did you get a network to pick up the show?\n(I need to create another blog post for this topic!)\nWith the help of the Canadian Ambassador to Greece opening the doors to the C-level executives for me, I ended up signing a 6-episode deal with Greece\u2019s largest television network (with the largest international reach outside of Greece) \u2013 Antenna Satellite (ANT1). Side note, thank the lord I did not sign with the government-owned network, ERT. It turns out that this network crumbled and disappeared due to politics in Greece around the same time I would have been launching the series.\nFollowing this news of signing with Antenna Satellite, the Greek media started writing about my show, about me and interviewing me for every major (and minor) newspaper in Greece - the buzz was absolutely amazing surrounding Hellenic Home Hunting. The only issue was that I still needed to produce 5 more episodes.\nSleep is for\u2026 SUCKERS!\nBeing a super-duper organized freak definitely helped with the chaotic process that would soon follow. I was able to coordinate the following in the next few months (while maintaining a full time career) before production began: select 5 filming locations across Greece, interview and select 5 realtors to be featured on the show, interview and select 5 potential buyers for each episode, set up contracts with the filming crew, organize logistics for each location, identify and negotiate with advertisers for each episode, front the huge financial bill associated with what comes with filming all episodes, be on site for each of the 5 filming locations that was crammed over a 2 week period while on my \u201cvacation\u201d and finally, spend countless hours editing each episode to the 30 minutes required by the network. Awesome!\nAnd the coolest part? Well, second coolest part after having a journalist from the Wall Street Journal follow me and the crew around while on set for one of the episodes in Greece, was being able to see new parts of Greece and experience new people I would have never met otherwise.\nIf you follow up on what I have been doing, you will know that Hellenic Home Hunting (www.HellenicHomeHunting.com) was a HUGE success. The feedback from the dozens of countries that got to experience it was overwhelming. To be able to tune in every Monday night during the prime time slot on Antenna Satellite for a 6-week period and see a 30 minute episode of my baby was something I can\u2019t put into words. It was rewarding.\nDuring the broadcasting of the show, I was extremely fortunate to have been featured on, not in, the front page of the print and digital edition of the Wall Street Journal (along with a sketch of my fat cheeks that appeared \u201cbelow the fold\u201d). This opportunity really hit home that what I was doing and what Hellenic Home Hunting represented was something that was of interest on a global scale (click here to read the article).\nThey loved me\u2026 now they want to murder me?\nAs you can imagine, once we were published in the Wall Street Journal, we received attention from all over the world \u2013 including from many of those who originally wrote great things about me. Now, I was a villain, exploiting Greece and its people. Boo to me! Off with my head!\nWhat pissed off the Greek media you ask? I created t-shirts for the cast and crew that read - Greece is not for sale, but its real estate is! The message on these shirts was to say that despite the political and economical challenges facing Greece right now, we are here to say that you can buy a piece of Greek real estate, but you can\u2019t buy Greece or its people. I wanted people to know that Greece is a tourist-friendly destination and that investment in Greece is a good thing. Well, let\u2019s just say that I was featured on many television shows (click here for an example) and in newspapers I was never published in prior to this \u2013 all negative, creating an even bigger buzz and having more people tune in to see what the hype was about (click here for my official response to the Greek media).\nIn hindsight, I wouldn\u2019t have changed a thing. I would simply try to have thicker skin earlier on to deal with the skata (crap in Greek) that was being written about me and my show. As several friends told me, bad press is good press\u2026 yada yada.\nWith the first season behind me, it is safe to say that the Hellenic Home Hunting experience taught me a lot about myself, the country I love and the people I surround myself with\u2026 but most importantly, it taught me that if you have a vision for something and believe in something, only you can make it become a reality.\nNot trying to be a motivational speaker here. But heck, I speak from personal experience!",

Now, a full complement of the Japanese artist's captivating Infinity Mirror rooms will arrive at The Broad on October 21 and run through January 1, 2018. Tickets will be released on September 1st at noon, pacific time.\nThe exhibit, which will include large-scale installations, paintings, sculptures and works on paper from the early 1950s to the present, alongside six of the 88 year old Tokyo-based artist's mirrored infinity rooms -- including her most recent realized infinity room, All the Eternal Love I Have for the Pumpkins, 2016, featuring dozens of her signature bright yellow, dotted pumpkins -- puts the role that the concept of infinity has played in her work in perspective.\n\u201cOur Infinity Mirrored Room has become a cultural phenomenon and many of our visitors are extremely passionate about Kusama\u2019s work,\u201d said Joanne Heyler, founding director of The Broad. Once experienced, it's easy to understand why. Standing alone in the dark inside the small rooms, with objects and lights endlessly multiplied, the boundaries of self start to slip away; it feels like floating. Infinity and beyond? Definitely.\nThe exhibit, which debuted at The Smithsonian's Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden earlier this year before moving on to the Seattle Art Museum, represents the museum's first special exhibition. After its run at The Broad, it will travel on to The Art Gallery of Ontario, the Cleveland Museum of Art and the High Museum of Art In Atlanta.\nFor tickets: The Broad",

        "title": "Kent Twitchell | Cal State LA",
        "raw_content": "BY JOCELYN Y. STEWART\nArtist Kent Twitchell (\u201972) knows Los Angeles. He knows the city\u2019s energy, its wild mix of people, its aesthetics, and especially its walls.\nThat knowledge comes from decades of working on the streets of the city, creating murals. Twitchell gave Los Angeles those elegant orchestra musicians who overlook the 110 Freeway; the enigmatic Bride and Groom on the side of a downtown bridal shop; the Freeway Lady, draped in her colorful afghan, who once stared out from a freeway wall.\nLos Angeles is his open-air gallery, housing a lifetime of his work. Making art that is intended to live outside, and is intended to become an integral part of civic life, has earned Twitchell an expansive audience. Generations of city residents who may never have visited an art gallery or museum have enjoyed rich art experiences through his murals. Twitchell\u2019s signature pieces are now part of the city\u2019s history.\n\u201cHe\u2019s one of the greatest\u2026living muralists in the world,\u201d says Eric Bjorgum, president of the board of directors of the Mural Conservancy of Los Angeles. \u201cIt\u2019s good to have someone like that in the community. He has painted [works of art] that are inherently indicative of Los Angeles or Southern California.\u201d\nHis work has been collected by the Smithsonian, the Chicago Art Institute, the Long Beach Museum of Art, the Boise Art Museum and the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. The institutions hold large drawings he creates before embarking on a mural.\n\u201cHe\u2019s not the first person to do this, but he\u2019s one of the major ones doing museum quality work outside,\u201d says Bjorgum, who is an intellectual property rights attorney. \u201cIt\u2019s not spray cans; it\u2019s serious art being done outside.\u201d\nTwitchell\u2019s highly visible art has changed the nature of the urban outdoors, imbuing walls with life and meaning. The Los Angeles Times once wrote of Twitchell: \u201cThe city shaped him as much as he shaped its urban landscape.\u201d\nThis reciprocal relationship had its start at Cal State LA. For Twitchell, the University was the perfect incubator\u2014a public university, in the heart of the city, with an art department faculty open to new ways of seeing art.\nBack then, the idea of painting museum quality work on the sides of buildings was still unusual.\n\u201cThis was 1971. This really wasn\u2019t done much,\u201d he says, recalling his days at the University. \u201cIt really was that environment that enabled me to do it. The art instructors there were really so amenable to thinking outside of the box.\u201d\nTwitchell was born in 1942 and raised on a farm in Michigan. By high school he was earning money as an artist with the lettering skills an uncle taught him. In 1960, at the age of 17, Twitchell enlisted in the U.S. Air Force and served as an illustrator. Of his five years in the military, three and a half were spent in England. The nation\u2019s castles and cathedrals left him awestruck.\n\u201cThere was something about them that changed me forever,\u201d he recalls. \u201cThe spires going up into the sky; something so monumental and uplifting. It was an inspiration. I wanted that to be in my art.\u201d\nAfter his discharge Twitchell moved to Los Angeles. University study was not in his plans; the idea intimidated him.\n\u201cBut I had the GI bill and I thought, \u2018someday I\u2019m going to wish I had done it,\u2019\u201d he told graduates of the College of Arts and Letters in 2016.\nThe CSU and Cal State LA awarded Twitchell an honorary degree of Doctor of Fine Arts during the 2016 Commencement ceremonies.\nAt East Los Angeles College, Twitchell earned an associate\u2019s degree, but after a few years he decided to enroll at Cal State LA. His fears of academia gave way to delight. He explored his interests, taking classes in cinema, drama, industrial arts.\nThe idea to go big came to Twitchell as he sat in an illustration class at Cal State LA taught by Roy Walden, a tough military veteran and a master teacher. Walden was teaching about values, the lights and darks that create form in a painting. Walden\u2019s method was to simplify the world by turning it into black and white, determining its values, and then later adding color and detail.\nThat method allowed Twitchell a mastery he had not had before. That\u2019s when it hit him. \u201cI figured whatever I was doing in his class, I could make it bigger,\u201d says Twitchell, who graduated with a bachelor\u2019s degree in art.\n\u201cI always loved Mt. Rushmore,\u201d he says. \u201cI remember seeing pictures of it in books when I was a kid. I dreamed of being a sculptor and doing giant sculptures.\u201d\nMaking murals was more economical. But Twitchell needed an appropriate canvas. Cal State LA classmate Rebecca Yoon (\u201971) offered the first: a house her family owned in the Pico-Union district of downtown Los Angeles. When Yoon told her parents Twitchell was painting a \u201cstar,\u201d they expected to see a celestial body. They were surprised to return home and find a portrait of actor Steve McQueen covering an outside wall of the home.\nTwitchell\u2019s first outdoor mural, Steve McQueen Monument (1971), at 12th and Union in Los Angeles. (Photos courtesy of Kent Twitchell)\nAnd then, in a true Hollywood moment, their house became famous. Suddenly the portrait of McQueen was showing up in publications everywhere, from the Los Angeles Times to the London Times.\n\u201cIt was just ridiculous...I thought I was the next Andy Warhol,\u201d Twitchell quips.\nOne good thing led to another and another. The art department at Cal State LA received a postcard from an admirer offering Twitchell the opportunity to paint a mural on his East Hollywood building on Fountain Avenue, an offer Twitchell accepted. He created a portrait of Strother Martin, the actor from the 1967 film Cool Hand Luke, who delivered the classic line\u2014 \u201cWhat we\u2019ve got here is failure to communicate\u201d\u2014after kicking Paul Newman into a ravine. Martin called after seeing and enjoying the mural.\nWhen he was a senior at Cal State LA, Twitchell created The Freeway Lady. The portrait is believed to be the first mural painted on a freeway wall, he says.\n\u201cThere were magical things happening to me when I was a student there,\u201d Twitchell says. It wasn\u2019t just that his professors were supportive of his huge endeavors. They gave him University credit for them. That official endorsement validated his work and encouraged him.\nOn the streets, reaction was mixed. \u201cHippies\u201d loved it; other people didn\u2019t know what to make it of it\u2014until later when the media began featuring him in stories. But Twitchell was doing what he loved in the place he loves. He immersed himself in the communities where he created murals.\n\u201cI take very seriously the place that I\u2019m in and I think like an architect,\u201d he says. \u201cI want the piece I\u2019m making to fit naturally on the wall, as if it had always been there and for it to be a part of the trees, and the signage, and the street lights.\u201d\nNow 74, Twitchell is known as a master of portraiture in its purest form. Often his work depicts a lone figure looking directly at the observer.\n\u201cKent\u2019s work traverses the style of Pop, Photorealism, and Postmodern Realism.\u201d\n- Mika Cho, Chair of the Deparment of Art at Cal State LA\nHis subjects range from the well-known to the unknown. One of Twitchell\u2019s heroes, Norman Rockwell, was known for using people in his town as the subjects of his illustrations for The Saturday Evening Post. Following in that tradition, Twitchell paints the people of his town, the movie stars and the super stars and the regular folk of Los Angeles.\nEarly in his study of art, Twitchell noticed a strain of elitism that he\u2019s bucked against ever since. At the core of his devotion to public art is a belief that art should be egalitarian.\n\u201cI\u2019m a simple farm kid,\u201d Twitchell says. \u201cI wanted to do as good a job as I could and do it out in the street where it\u2019s vulnerable.\u201d\nWhether it\u2019s the Statue of Liberty, or a mural in a Metro station, art in public spaces redefines that space. Advocates of public art say it engages, sparks dialogue and can strengthen community. Fellow alum, Mark Steven Greenfield (\u201987), who has been commissioned to create a mural at the Metro station on Broadway, said public art reflects \u201can investment in a community.\u201d\nYet, for all its benefits, public art must sometimes fight for the space it occupies.\nTwitchell\u2019s latest project is re-creating a work of his that was the subject of a landmark lawsuit. From a studio in Long Beach he has created the sections that together will form his new mural of L.A. artist Ed Ruscha. The mural will live on the side of the American Hotel in the Arts District of downtown Los Angeles.\nHis original mural of Ruscha lived on the wall of a government-owned building and was finished in 1987, after a decade of work. The homage was white-washed in 2006 by a crew that was working on the YWCA Job Corps Center. That action disregarded a law that protects the rights of artists, requiring that they are informed and given an opportunity to preserve their works. The lawsuit settled for more than a million dollars, said Bjorgum, who litigated the case.\nEd Ruscha Monument by Kent Twitchell (1987). The mural at 1031 S. Hill St. in Los Angeles was illegally painted over in June 2006. (Photo courtesy of Kent Twitchell)\nThe outcome was more than a personal victory for Twitchell; it helped raise awareness about public art and its vital role in civic life. In fact, by the 1980s Twitchell could see that public art needed advocates. His work, and that of other muralists, was strangled by graffiti, making it difficult for people to see its value. \u201cThey began to equate public art with ugliness,\u201d Twitchell recalls.\nTwitchell co-founded and sits on the board of directors of the Mural Conservancy of Los Angeles. The conservancy is dedicated to restoring, preserving, and documenting the murals of Los Angeles. Working with Caltrans, the California Department of Transportation, the conservancy has helped to keep new graffiti off murals and to restore others. Since its inception the nonprofit has also helped increase appreciation for public art.\nLast year, Twitchell received an honorary doctorate degree from the CSU Board of Trustees and Cal State LA \u201cin recognition of his distinguished career, his contributions to the beauty of urban landscapes, and his role as an advocate for public art.\u201d\nTwitchell has heard the stories of people who grew up with his murals, seeing them on the way to school, or while shopping downtown.\n\u201cWhen they get older\u2026it takes on other kinds of meanings,\u201d he says. Those stories are the ones he remembers because they confirm his decision to place his art on city walls, for the people of the city to enjoy. No admission required.\n\u201cI wanted it to be outside where real people are, and to be a part of real life.\u201d",

Normally holding this on a holiday would seem unusual, but with the Iowa caucuses in two days, they have little choice but to keep on the job throughout the last 72 hours. The conference appears to be getting off to a slightly late start, but I will live-blog it once it begins.\n5:33 PM CT - Chuck Norris joins us as a surprise guest. Huckabee starts off talking about how Iowa has become the center of the political universe. He's happy with the enthusiasm he's seen.\n5:34 - Chuck Norris says he got to know about Huckabee through the bloggers. Friendly guy, nice statement, short, non-specific.\n5:35 - Not a lot of room left in the Marriott where they's staying in Des Moines. Q&A for both Norris and Huckabee.\n5:35 - First question, from a Huckabee supporter, congratulating Huckabee on his MTP interview and offering thanks to Norris for his family fare. The actual question is about Huckabee's background -- what caused him to leave the ministry and go into politics? A: A number of incidents over time. Always had an interest in politics, but only after working within the Baptist organization on an anti-Lottery initiative did he consider making it a career. Mostly, he wanted to create a better future for his three children, and he wanted to get involved rather than complain.\n5:40 - Q: First for Norris, asking about his involvement in the arts. A: The only thing he ever sang was the theme from \"Walker, Texas Ranger\". He wanted Randy Travis to sing it, but CBS asked him to do it instead -- and 12 hours in the studio worked \"miracles\". Q: For Huckabee, on education and the federal role. Please outline some of his own accomplishments on education, and does he want to be viewed as an \"education President\"? A: The federal government's primary role should be to highlight best practices and facilitate communication. He says NCLB did give a new focus on each child as an individual, but it has problems in accounting for kids with special challenges. It also eliminated some music and art opportunities,as local districts looked to save money on areas that did not get evaluation.\nThis answer went on for quite a long time. As it turns out, it ate up most of the time for the conference.\n5:47 - Last question: another Huckabee supporter gets it. He gives an analysis that Huckabee has a 74% chance of winning Iowa. Otherwise, it's not much of a question.\nFinal thoughts: I like Mike Huckabee, but this call was really a waste of time. It sounded like an internal conference designed to cheer the stalwarts rather than an opportunity to get asked something other than softballs. It's not that Huckabee gave poor answers -- he sounded very good, in fact -- but the questions did nothing except tee up his well-known thoughts on his biography and education.\nI wanted to give him an opportunity to address the fallout of his press conference in which he announced he would not run a particular attack ad against Mitt Romney and then screened it for the press anyway, as bloggers and pundits have been openly wondering what Huckabee intended with that move. I figured that if I didn't get the chance to ask that question, someone else would -- but we only got three softballs, and slow-pitched ones at that.\nChuck Norris may have been the most interesting part of this call.\nPosted by Ed Morrissey on January 1, 2008 5:30 PM | Comments (\nGovernor Mike Huckabee decided to hold a blogger conference call on New Years Day.

Friendly guy, nice statement, short, non-specific. 5:35 - Not a lot of room left in the Marriott where they's staying in Des Moines. Q&A for both Norris and Huckabee. 5:35 - First question, from a Huckabee supporter, congratulating Huckabee on his MTP interview and offering thanks to Norris for his family fare. The actual question is about Huckabee's background -- what caused him to leave the ministry and go into politics? A: A number of incidents over time. Always had an interest in politics, but only after working within the Baptist organization on an anti-Lottery initiative did he consider making it a career. Mostly, he wanted to create a better future for his three children, and he wanted to get involved rather than complain. 5:40 - Q: First for Norris, asking about his involvement in the arts. A: The only thing he ever sang was the theme from \"Walker, Texas Ranger\". He wanted Randy Travis to sing it, but CBS asked him to do it instead -- and 12 hours in the studio worked \"miracles\". Q: For Huckabee, on education and the federal role. Please outline some of his own accomplishments on education, and does he want to be viewed as an \"education President\"? A: The federal government's primary role should be to highlight best practices and facilitate communication. He says NCLB did give a new focus on each child as an individual, but it has problems in accounting for kids with special challenges. It also eliminated some music and art opportunities,as local districts looked to save money on areas that did not get evaluation. This answer went on for quite a long time. As it turns out, it ate up most of the time for the conference. 5:47 - Last question: another Huckabee supporter gets it. He gives an analysis that Huckabee has a 74% chance of winning Iowa. Otherwise, it's not much of a question. Final thoughts: I like Mike Huckabee, but this call was really a waste of time. It sounded like an internal conference designed to cheer the stalwarts rather than an opportunity to get asked something other than softballs. It's not that Huckabee gave poor answers -- he sounded very good, in fact -- but the questions did nothing except tee up his well-known thoughts on his biography and education. I wanted to give him an opportunity to address the fallout of his press conference in which he announced he would not run a particular attack ad against Mitt Romney and then screened it for the press anyway, as bloggers and pundits have been openly wondering what Huckabee intended with that move. I figured that if I didn't get the chance to ask that question, someone else would -- but we only got three softballs, and slow-pitched ones at that. Chuck Norris may have been the most interesting part of this call.",

        "raw_content": "\u00ab Faces on Faith: Good is natu... Shell Shocked: The downside...\u00bb\nRotary Happenings: San-Cap Rotary Club Trust Fund revises process for community grants\nEach year, the Sanibel-Captiva Rotary Club through its Sanibel-Captiva Rotary Trust Fund provides grants to local non-profit organizations as part of its community grants program. Last year, our club awarded nearly $50,000 in community grant funding and $50,000 in global grants. The majority of it is provided by fund-raising events, primarily our major annual fundraiser - the Sanibel-Captiva Rotary Arts and Crafts Fair - in February.\nAt last week's club assembly, trust fund Board Member and Secretary Dorrie Hipschman announced a new grant process. The trust fund has revised its grant process in order to provide the best resources for our community and to better serve it and others.\nIn addition, Rotary Scholarship Committee Co-chair Lee Almas announced that the club will award college scholarship this year in the amount of $10,000. Details of the awards will be announced soon.\nThe following information has been sent to island non-profits in letter form and can be found online at sanibelrotary.org, under the link \"Charitable Grants.\" Review the document carefully as it will help you to prepare a successful application.\nSchedule/timing\nRotary's fiscal year is July 1 to June 30. Each non-profit may receive funding only once each year. However, to ensure a fast and fair response to need, we will now have two application opportunities each year. In future years, grants applications will be due on Aug. 1 and on March 1 each year. (Note: This year, the first applications will be due on Sept. 20.)\nGrant awards will be distributed at a club meeting in October and June.\nTypical Rotary grants range from $500 to $2,500.\nGrants are not limited to tax-exempt 501(c)(3) organizations.\nAttachments may be JPGs, Word or Excel documents, or PDFs. A written progress report must be provided within 6-12 months of funding indicating how the funds were spent and how successful you were in achieving the desired outcome. If you do not submit a progress report within 6-12 months, your organization will not be considered for funding in the next year. Follow-up report forms can be found on the Sanibel-Captiva Rotary Club website. Grant consideration is based on the following: making a substantial difference in the quality of our community life; facilitates collaboration and helps build partnerships between organizations, local government or public institutions to create positive change; and helps build their capacity to become more effective in our community. Grant applications must be sponsored by a Rotary member.\nFor questions or if you are new to applying for a community grant, contact trust Board President Bill Rahe at wrahe@earthlink.net.",

The players can always reach the staff through the live chat window as well as telephone and e-mail.\nThe venue is operated by Luckland Services Limited of Tortola, BVI, and by Luckland Group Limited in Malta. The actual license has been obtained from the Government of Curacao's e-Gaming Authority. In terms of the value of such a license, it is enough to say that the infastructure for providing a valued license has not been established in the territory. It is more like a business license, which still counts. However, it isn't respected in the same way as other licenses.\nPersonal Experience at Luck Land Casino\nI was lucky to find an online casino with such a broad selection of games. In fact, I could spend hours playing the highly entertaining and visually attractive games at casino Luck Land. The slots were my favorite game category on the site. In terms of the promotional offer, I was glad to see the three-part welcome package as well as the great reload bonus deals. Despite the fact that the casino has chosen the easy path and obtained its license in Curacao, I could still see the benefits of joining Luck Land casino.\nNews Articles Related To Luck Land Casino Bonuses",

Initially, residents in the area were ordered to remain indoors after the explosion because the tank contained toluene, a toxic petroleum by-product used in paint and gasoline. Two workers were taken to an area hospital as a precaution for inhalation injuries, were treated and later released. The cause of the explosion is still under investigation.\nAlbemarle Corp. has successfully started up a new unit to produce SpectraSyn polyalphaolefins (PAO), a high viscosity base stock for lubricants, for ExxonMobil Chemical. The plant\u2019s 15,000 metric tons/year capacity was successfully rate tested in November. Albemarle\u2019s custom manufacturing business unit, Fine Chemistry Services, designed and built the facility using a combination of new and existing equipment at Albemarle\u2019s Pasadena, Texas production site.\nJacobs Engineering Group Inc. has received a contract from Sasol to provide basic engineering services for the first commercial installation of Sasol\u2019s proprietary tetramerization technology.

Linde will supply ZAO with an on-site air separation unit for EUR 37 million. The facility will have a production capacity of 9,000 Nm3/h of gaseous oxygen and additional capacities for the production of liquefied gases.\nHydrogen Supply\nShanghai Chemical Industry Park Industrial Gases Company (SCIPIG), a 50/50 joint venture between Praxair Inc. and Air Liquide, was recently awarded a 15-year industrial gases pipeline supply contract from Bayer Polyurethanes Co., Ltd. Under the contract, SCIPIG will further develop its existing industrial gas network and build a new hydrogen and carbon monoxide plant, including a steam methane reforming unit and a carbon monoxide unit. The plant will have a total capacity of about 130,000 tons/year and is expected to start up at the beginning of 2012.\nSika has signed a lease agreement with TechnoPark to construct a manufacturing and technical facility on a 30,000-square meter land area during the next year to develop, supply and support product sales in the Gulf region. The site will also house a Regional Technical Center for the entire Middle East, India and Africa region.\nCustomer Technical Center\n3M will open its Customer Technical Centre in Dubai, United Arab Emirates later in 2010. The center will act as an innovative base for customers to test 3M\u2019s products and solutions that are new to the Middle East market. It will also provide 3M with an expanded facility in the Middle East to better support customer needs across the region. This will be the company\u2019s 23rd center.\nThe Emirates Nuclear Energy Corporation (ENEC) has selected a team led by Korea Electric Power Corporation (KEPCO) to design, build and help operate civil nuclear power plants for the United Arab Emirates\u2019 peaceful nuclear energy program. The contract calls for the KEPCO team to design, build and help operate four 1,400 megawatt civil nuclear power units.

Most days it is easy to get lost in the negativity of it all. Being fearful is the natural result of such a focus. The thing is, there is so much more on the other side of fear.\nThere is friendship and peace on the other side of fear. Many people work behind the scenes every day to bring cooperation to situations that are on the verge of becoming volatile. The fact of the matter is, most people worldwide do not hate and dislike the idea of fighting. It is only our supposed \"leaders\" who fight for control of the world's resources that take us into conflict in the first place. We have the power to change this by making our voices heard.\nThere are cures for disease on the other side of fear. Often, finding them requires looking beyond what we are told. Some of the cures we know about. Others still require finding. Our world and even our own bodies can reveal secrets to how to keep our bodies in health.\nThe world's money problems continue to play in the forefronts of our minds, thanks to the media. Markets all over the world are volatile and in freefall. The thing to remember here is, you can't eat money. Even though we believe we need money to survive, the reality is we don't. We need food to survive. We need water and air and access to clothing and housing. Understand the things we need to survive already exist. We just need to rethink the system that gets them to us.\nStepping into the other side of fear requires us to focus on improvements that need to be made. The only reason we need to even acknowledge the fear is so we understand exactly what needs to be changed in the first place. Fear does not need to be given place in our hearts.\nIt is time to step out on the other side of fear, and change the world.\nLabels: fear, rethink the system, solutions",

        "raw_content": "Announcing The Coolhead Business App of the Week\nWe\u2019re launching a new column here at Coolhead Tech that we think businesses interested in the cloud are going to love. Over the coming months we\u2019ll be publishing a weekly write up on some of our favorite and most useful companion apps for Google Apps for Business, as well as some of our all-time favorite cloud based business apps.\nGoogle Apps for Business and the Apps Marketplace\nWe\u2019re big Google Apps fans here at Coolhead and we\u2019re using the business productivity suite and a number of the companion apps daily within our organization. Google Apps has delivered powerful new ways to share and collaborate, but not only that, it has made our operation so much more efficient than how it would be with traditional productivity suites.\nAs if Apps for Business wasn\u2019t enough, Google made a great choice by opening up their ecosystem to developers who saw even more potential within Google Apps. Now there\u2019s a busy marketplace with a number of companion apps that help you get to extract all you can from google apps, while also introducing new features and tools that aren\u2019t a part of the core service.\nOne of the biggest red flags that businesses come up against when investigating a switch to Google Apps is that they see missing features when comparing the suite to their current solution. It\u2019s true that if you look at only the core Google Apps for Business feature set there are things missing. There\u2019s no advanced data protection systems, no backups, and no options for configuring security based around traditional security policies that businesses are already used to.\nWell\u2026 actually there are, and those are the type of Apps that we\u2019ll be showcasing.\nWe want to remove the negatives that businesses see in switching to Google Apps by removing roadblocks in the process. At the same time, we\u2019ll be educating current Google Apps users on features and plugins that they might not have known about.\nIn the future, it\u2019s likely that a large part of your company\u2019s productivity tasks will be performed in the cloud. The companion apps allow you to take more of what you\u2019re doing in to the cloud NOW.\nMore than just GoogleBusiness Apps\nAt Coolhead, Google Apps is not the only cloud solution that we use and support. Google Apps and the companion apps are perfect for a large chunk of your operation, but there are other cloud solutions that can also make business easier.\nDid you ever consider that you could do all of your accounting and invoicing within the cloud? One of our favorite apps is FreshBooks, a cloud accounting solution that does more than just crunch numbers. It\u2019s a hub for invoicing, onward-billing, recording your own company\u2019s expenses, and even tracking jobs that are in progress to provide immediate and accurate billing to customers. The app can also take care of setting up payment gateways so that your customers will have online options to pay for your products or services.\nFreshBooks is just one example of a powerful cloud application that can perform tasks that are likely separated within your current business model, all within one application that saves you money and improves efficiency.\nLook for the Coolhead Business App of the Week in Upcoming Posts\nThe biggest advantage to cloud technology for businesses is streamlining workflow and reducing cost overheads.\nThere are a lot of businesses who want to move in to the cloud but haven\u2019t discovered all of the value that the switch would bring, or haven\u2019t found the right solutions that make for an attractive business decision.\nWhether you want to expand on the cloud solutions you\u2019re already using, or you\u2019re missing that final piece of the puzzle that will make the cloud more viable to your business, we\u2019ll be showcasing the apps that make the most compelling arguments for cloud technology today.",

        "raw_content": "Million Hearts Colorado: CDC's April Science in Brief: Can Text Messaging Improve Medication Adherence in Adults with Coronary Heart Disease?\nCoronary heart disease (CHD) is a leading cause of death and disability worldwide. CHD leads to more than 385,000 deaths per year in the United States and costs the country approximately $108.9 billion dollars in health care costs.\nAlthough poor medication adherence is strongly associated with adverse outcomes for CHD patients, including hospital readmission, disability, and death, rates of medication non-adherence for heart attack patients range from 13% to 61%.\nUsing technology to facilitate self-monitoring, positive reinforcement, and remote coaching can be a practical\nand inexpensive way to improve medication adherence.\nResearchers conducted a 30-day randomized clinical trial to evaluate the effectiveness of an mobile health (mHealth) intervention that used personalized text messages (TMs) to increase adherence to antiplatelet and statin medications among patients with CHD following release from the hospital. Findings suggest that mHealth may be useful for improving medication adherence during the vulnerable time for CHD patients following discharge from the hospital. The high satisfaction rating of the program supports the feasibility of TM-based mHealth interventions. Further research is needed to assess additional intervention factors, such as target population, unintended effects, and cost analysis. Read this week's Science In Brief here.\nMedication adherence is a key strategy of the Million Hearts Initiative, an effort to prevent 1 million heart attacks and strokes over five years. Colorado participates in this initiative and you can too. Be one in a million - make your commitment and pledge today.",

Several centers (schools or local churches) have made their facilities available on Saturdays allowing students to deepen their knowledge of the Bible and theology, and all this happens in their own region. There are many who are not able to come and study on campus but CTS is going to them!\nCTS offers every Christian the opportunity to study God\u2019s Word and the related subjects thanks to the distance learning courses. With the conviction that every Christian is called to know God and His Word in a deeper way, in order to better love Him, to better serve Him, to better serve the local church but also to better invest in our society, CTS enables every person who desires to follow a sound teaching from a biblical, theological and practical perspective.\nThe student has also the opportunity to obtain academic credits of an equivalent class valid in the Bachelor's program offered by the seminary. Additionally, after successfully passing the exam, the recognition of the course in the Bachelor's program will be completed under the conditions established by the academic office of the seminary. In any case, a payment of additional fees that equal the difference between the costs of the Saturday School class and the costs of the regular Bachelor's program class would be required.\nProf. Ralf Lubs",

        "title": "Gore Vidal's The Best Man, a Curtainup Broadway review",
        "raw_content": "BySimon Saltzman\nIn my day, you had to pour God over everything like ketchup. \u2014 Former President Hockstader\nCheck out the hanging red, white, and blue banners, the draped bunting, the placards along the walls, and the blaring of Sousa marches. Take notice of the snappy red, white, and blue straw hats (make that plastic) on the ushers as they guide you to your seats. Whether you are a liberal or a conservative, be assured you are being prepped for a rousing good time these days at The Gerald Schoenfeld Theater.\nDespite the pretentious moniker having been affixed with the playwright's name for its first Broadway revival in 2000, Gore Vidal's The Best Man happily remains in this latest revival to be as timely, topical, and exhilarating as when it first appeared on Broadway fifty-two years ago. It is true that what was proclaimed as politically provocative in its time and subsequently a little old hat now seems to have developed a spine that not only resists condescension, but rather smugly validates itself more than ever in the light of the current political scene. While the plot that pits an ethical and erudite senator William Russell against a no-holds-barred down-and-dirty Senator Joseph Cantwell can hardly be called inventive, it barrels along entertainingly thanks to the invigorating battle of tongues and tempers that fuel this excellent production.\nSmartly cast with a winning company, under the crackling direction of Michael Wilson, Gore Vidal's The Best Man relies on occasional winks at top political figures of the time (the play is set in 1960), namely Adlai Stevenson and Richard Nixon. But it also relies for its success on how we are able to perceive and balance the quaintness of the viciousness that existed at a time when domestic issues and foreign policies still took precedence --- all this in the glaring light of today, with its even more venomously modernized political and personal assaults on character, race, and religion.\nAs we are in the midst of another campaign for the presidency, the current revival may be seen as an engaging look at politics in the good old days, that is before everything at a convention was a done deal. The play is set both on the floor of the Philadelphia Convention Hall as well as in a pair of hotel suites (handsomely designed to glide smoothly into place by Derek McLane) during the time of the tumultuous nominating process.\nThe current cast is an example of well-done deals, as all the actors seem supremely committed to making the most of their roles. The fireworks begin with the entrance of the commendably in command James Earl Jones as the slick and cunning former President Arthur Hockstader. Few will need to be reminded that the Tony Award-winning (The Great White Hope, Fences) Jones has been an imposing theatrical figure for the past forty-five years. His formidable robustness is a wonderful thing to behold in his amusingly bombastic portrayal of the manipulating Hockstader, who though dying and in pain from cancer, significantly enlivens the stakes between the two voraciously battling campaigning front runners.\nWhen it comes to being imposing as well as impressive, John Larroquette fills the bill splendidly as Secretary of State William Russell, whose idealism, principals, and disdain for unprincipled ambition prove to be the guiding proponents of the play. To be sure, his is a one-sided and decidedly polarizing polemic. However, Vidal makes sure that it's the meanies (as they do in real life) craftily keep everyone on their toes.\nWhat could be more amusing in this election year than oodles of snappy and insinuating dialogue that earnestly and humorously recalls a time when the delegates at a convention could actually surprise us with their votes? The play is ripe with character assassinations and disclosures, mostly to do with matters sexual, and a plethora of flip political quips. Here, the likeable, liberal, idealistic, and married William Russell is facing not only exposure of his years as an estranged-from-his-wife philanderer, but also the rumor of being mentally unstable. As Russell, Larroquette (Tony and Drama Desk awards for How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying) stands tall displaying his dramatic capabilities in the face of some stiff competition.\nRussell's bete noir is the unscrupulous Joseph Cantwell (Erik McCormack), whose treacherously gung-ho attack of his opponent is contrasted against his baby-talk embroidered relationship with his wife (She calls him \u201cPapa Bear\u201d and he calls her \u201cMama Bear\u201d). McCormack, who is probably best known for his role as Will Truman on NBC's long-running TV series Will and Grace, is basically rotten to the core. One glance at McCormack's calculated smiles, good looks, and that spiffy haircut, and you can see him not only as a truly dangerous adversary, but also as a startling reminder (in looks only) of Senator John Edwards. The adversarial plot thickens when Cantwell's damaging information against Russell backfires with a potential revelation about his own past.\nStanding and maneuvering smartly behind their husbands are the wives, each in her way passionately dedicated to her respective husband. Candice Bergen, who had a ten-year success in the CBS TV comedy series Murphy Brown, is gorgeous and grand as Russell's neglected wife Alice, a model of good-breeding and refinement, even as she valiantly conceals to her husband and to the world her true feelings about her sex-less marriage. Kerry Butler is a hoot as Cantwell's sassy and politically perceptive wife Mabel who unequivocally demonstrates with every innuendo what a driving and significant force the equally ambitious woman behind her man can be.\nIt isn't enough or responsible to say that Angela Lansbury is simply funny as Mrs. Sue-Ellen Gamadge, the sarcastically inclined, frou-frou-frocked leader of a women's caucus. She is so much more than that \u2014simply call this treasure of the theater a perennial vote-getter.\nThe extraordinary Jefferson Mays is scary and nutty as the mentally unbalanced informer who fingers Cantwell. Michael McKean makes a vivid impression as Dick Jenson, Russell's campaign manager. Ann Roth's costumes give the women plenty of style, just as Vidal gives the men they stand behind plenty of guile.\nCast: James Earl Jones (Former President Arthur Hockstader), Angela Landsbury (Mrs. Sue-Ellen Gamadge), Dakin Matthews (Senator Clyde Carlin), John Larroquette (Secretary William Russell), Candice Bergen (Alice Russell), Michael McKean (Dick Jensen), Angelica Page (Catherine), Eric McCormack (Senator Joseph Cantwell), Kerry Butler (Mabel Cantwell), Donna Hanover (Mrs. Cantwell), Corey Brill (Don Blades), Bill Kux (Dr. Artinian), Jefferson Mays (Sheldon Marcus)\nRunning Time: 2 hours 30 minutes including 2 intermissions\nGerald Schoenfeld Theater, 236 West 46th Street\nTickets $66.50 - $131.50 Performances Sunday at 3 PM; Tuesday through Saturday evenings at 8 PM; Wednesday and Saturday matinees at 2 PM.\nOpens: 04/01/12\nExtended several times-- now closing 9/09/12\nI agree with the review of The Best Man\nI disagree with the review of The Best Man\nThe review made me eager to see The Best Man",

        "title": "Got Happy Customers? (Short) - Customer Research, Inc.",
        "raw_content": "Got Happy Customers?\nWouldn\u2019t life be grand if you had perfect processes in place within every sector of your dealership, if all your employers were loyal, motivated, hardworking, and efficient\u2014and if they carried out your flawless processes with precision, accuracy, and confidence? You could count on having very happy customers! They might be so pleased that they become \u201ccustomers for life,\u201d spreading their satisfaction and your flawless reputation all over town. Your vehicle sales would go up and your service department would thrive. As a bonus, your customers would be motivated to actually complete that nightmare of a survey from the manufacturer. And of course they would select top box scores on every question. Not a bad way to kick that CSI up to Number 1 in your zone!\nYou may think this scenario sounds like a dream, but it could come true for you if you make use of a first-class customer follow-up system. Sales and service customer follow-up results will provide the information you need to implement the proper processes and fine-tune employee performance. You can use the information to set standards and establish a measuring stick to maintain them. Without a follow-up program in place, you will be unaware of most customer complaints. If you don\u2019t know about them, you will have no chance to resolve them, and you may find it is impossible to retain customers who had a poor experience at your dealership.\nUnderstanding the importance of customer follow-up, what method should you use, and how should you implement this program? Telephone follow-up is proven to be the most effective, allowing you to reach the highest number of customers and gather the most feedback. Mail and e-mail surveys are other options, but typically they produce a survey return rate of less than 10 per cent, compared to completed telephone survey rates that can surpass 80 per cent.\nTelephone follow-up will have a major impact on your customer retention, customer loyalty, and especially CSI. You will have the ability to resolve more customer complaints prior to each customer receiving the manufacturer survey. In addition, more CSI-sensitive customers will receive a follow-up. Therefore, more satisfied customers will be made aware of the manufacturer survey. Your customers must be educated that this survey is extremely important, serves as a report card, and anything less than the best possible rating is complete failure. This should be a conversation, not just a script, and it must come from the heart, while still maintaining the customer\u2019s undivided attention. If the follow-up is completed each day, a high contact percentage is maintained, and if the manufacturer survey information is properly communicated, CSI should skyrocket! Major influences on raising CSI are resolving dissatisfaction, generating more survey returns, and getting more top box responses on those returns.\nIf you decide to follow-up with your customers by telephone, you might want to consider the many benefits of outsourcing to third-party follow-up specialists. You will save time and money while you reap the benefits of higher contact percentages. Your survey results will be completely unbiased, and your customers will really open up to professionally trained, third-party interviewers. You will receive detailed summary CSI reports, and most importantly, your follow-up will always get done.\nHow could an outside company possibly be less expensive than in-house follow-up? One reason is that many research companies utilize rapid dialing technology that is approximately three times more efficient than manual telephone dialing done in-house. A nationwide study analyzing service department telephone follow-up proves that one individual manually dialing would be required to call uninterrupted for nearly 2 hours in order to make contact with one customer who was not completely satisfied with their service experience. That customer problem could provide priceless information, but this follow-up process quickly becomes time-consuming and expensive.\nIn-house telephone follow-up is hard work, but the majority of the labor consists of dialing number after number, reaching answering machines, and shuffling paper.",

        "raw_content": "5 Customer Service Tips For Universities Handling Student Admissions\nHow do I provide excellent customer service at my retail store? How about my restaurant? The airline industry? While customer services experts are bombarded with such questions, it is indeed a rare occasion to come across someone concerned with providing exceptional client service at educational institutes.\nThe education industry at the end of the day is a service provided to the students, who wish to be catered to with quality standards. Application processing departments at educational institutes need to make sure they offer a convenient and comfortable experience for students who are looking to enroll.\nSo the question arises: how do we provide a satisfying experience to students applying for admissions?\nThe first thing that all customers look for when applying to a college or university, is a quick response. The admissions team should have integrated systems which have the entire student data collected, and can provide them with updates and admission news instantly. In case a student is facing a problem during the admission process, such as logging into the university website, or sending scores that have arrived post applying, an admission\u2019s representative must get back and respond in a timely manner to get the issue resolved.\nCreating a customer service department at your institute is not enough; everyone from the school\u2019s principal, to the front desk staff needs to be customer centric. This is essential for ensuring that the students receive a satisfying customer experience no matter who they get in touch with.\nWhy do students come to your institute? To learn! Do not make them run around the office to get an issue resolved, rather let them relax and focus on their academics. A very simple way to avoid any such incident is to create a centralized help desk. Also, keep a map or guideline on your website with phone numbers and office addresses which will cater to particular issues, from registering the ID card, filling in forms and picking up registered papers.\nHelp With Lodging\nThe trend of going abroad for studying has grown drastically. Students are now willing to travel all over the world in order to attend their \u2018dream schools\u2019. The most worrisome factor for parents when deciding whether to send their child or not, is the accommodation and food issue. Although top class universities provide on-campus housing for nearly all the students, some institutes do not. We agree that it might not be possible for every college to provide on-campus housing, and when this is the case, the institute should help every student find an accommodation in nearby localities in order to ensure a safe and short commute.\nThis is probably the most important point in this piece: Help your students with financing. Education costs are on the rise and the demand for funds, grants, loans, and scholarships is on an all-time high. You can provide students with the best customer service experience of their life by helping them out with financing, and thus ensuring that students can attend their favorite institute without having to worry about the annual fee. Guide them with all necessary information regarding financial aid. Helping students out at this stage will create an everlasting impact on them, and hopefully when they are in a strong professional position, you will be getting your return in the form of donations.\nHelp students make the most of their experience at your institute. Although considering students as \u2018customers\u2019 might seem awkward at first, it is about time you accepted this fact and strived towards providing a memorable customer experience.\n7 Tips for Creating an Excellent Customer Service Culture\nTips for Handling Talkative Customers on Live Chat Support",

        "title": "Kawhi Leonard Thanks San Antonio Fans - Daily Hawker",
        "raw_content": "The Kawhi Leonard trade saga was one of the most talked about events of the NBA Off Season. It all started with San Antonio Spurs\u2019 medical staff (allegedly) misdiagnosing Kawhi Leonard\u2019s quadricep injury and clearing him to play. However, Kawhi Leonard still felt some pain and discomfort in the injured area and sought a second opinion. The San Antonio Spurs organization allowed him to go ahead and do that. Coach Gregg Popovich said that Kawhi Leonard\u2019s return to action was completely dependent on Kawhi Leonard. As the season went on and Kawhi Leonard had only played in 9 games (averaging 16.2 points 4.7 rebounds and 2.3 assists per game), people all across the NBA started wondering about what was happening with his injury.\nThe San Antonio Spurs players held a players only meeting with Leonard, veteran Tony Parker (who suffered a ruptured quadricep himself) claimed that his injury was a hundred times worse than Leonard\u2019s. The Spurs limped through the regular season and won only 47 games to earn the 7th seed in the playoffs. This broke the streak of 18 straight seasons with 50 or more wins. Their seeding landed them a first round match up against the mighty Golden State Warriors, who swiftly disposed the Spurs in 5 games. The outcome wasn\u2019t a surprise to anyone. Nobody expected a San Antonio Spurs team without their best player Kawhi Leonard, to pose any challenge to the Golden State Warriors led by Klay Thompson, Kevin Durant and Draymond Green (Stephen Curry missed the series because of an MCL injury). What surprised people, was the absence of Kawhi Leonard from the San Antonio Spurs bench. He wasn\u2019t the first player to miss games because of injury. However, injured NBA players always attend important games with their teammates from the bench. It was extremely unusual for Kawhi Leonard to not even be with his team, supporting from the sideline.\nIt soon turned out to be a sign of much uglier things to come. Halfway through June, Kawhi Leonard\u2019s representatives publically expressed his desire to be traded from the San Antonio Spurs. The team-player relationship had reached such lows that it was difficult for the Spurs organisation to even set up a meeting with Kawhi Leonard. He wanted out of San Antonio so badly that he was ready and willing to leave almost $80 million on the table. After numerous attempts to reconcile the differences, which included a brief Gregg Popovich \u2013 Kawhi Leonard meeting in San Diego, California, the Spurs organization decided that it\u2019s best to trade Leonard and move on. The Spurs started actively shopping Leonard and received offers from many teams. The Los Angeles Lakers, Philadelphia 76ers and Boston Celtics had emerged as the frontrunners for the trade. However, the Spurs were asking for too much in return for the two time Defensive Player of the Year and 2014 Finals MVP. Ultimately, the talks fell out with the aforementioned teams and on July 18th, Kawhi Leonard (alongwith Danny Green) was eventually traded to the Toronto Raptors for All Star DeMar DeRozan, Jakob Poeltl and a first round draft pick.\nUpon the completion of the Kawhi Leonard \u2013 DeMar DeRozan trade, Spurs Head Coach Gregg Popovich was asked about his opinion on the latest events. This is what he had to say:\n\u201cWe wish him well as he moves into Toronto. I think he\u2019ll be great, I think this trade is going to work out great for both teams. We wish [Leonard] well, but at this point it\u2019s time to move on. It\u2019s time to move on. Kawhi is not going to stop being a great player. But we\u2019re thrilled with DeMar. \u2026 To get back a proven NBA player and a proven All-Star, we have to be thrilled.\u201d\nThis whole event had an exceptional amount of drama, something which is extremely unexpected from the San Antonio Spurs. Throughout the series of events, Kawhi Leonard stayed silent in his usual way. Even after the trade, Leonard didn\u2019t say anything. Finally, after all this time, Kawhi Leonard has spoken, and the two most prominent words to come out of his mouth, are THANK YOU, mainly directed towards the fans and members of the San Antonio Spurs, his team from 2011-2018.\nThis is what Kawhi Leonard had to say through a letter submitted to the San Antonio Express-News :\nThe San Antonio Spurs won\u2019t just be without Kawhi Leonard as the 2018-19 NBA season tips off, they lost future hall of famer Tony Parker during free agency as well. He signed a 2 year, $10 million deal with the Charlotte Hornets. Tony Parker had also sent out a Thank You letter to the Spurs franchise and fans through the Players\u2019 Tribune website.\nParker\u2019s departure, winning less than 50 games for the first time in 18 years, and the dramatic and ugly trade of Kawhi Leonard mark the end of an era in San Antonio. An end, which began with the retirement of NBA legend Tim Duncan in 2016. Kawhi Leonard was supposed to carry the torch, but now he is gone. With Tim Duncan retired, Tony Parker gone and Manu Ginobili\u2018s status for next season uncertain, The Big Three era is also officially over. With Gregg Popovich slated for stepping down from the head coaching job in 2020, the Spurs need to re-build and re-focus their franchise if they want to continue being the paragon of consistency and success in the future.\nbasketballdemar derozangregg popovichHoopskawhi leonardnbasan antonio spurstoronto raptorsShare0\nGlobal Blockchain Enabled Shipping Solution Launched | IBM, Danish & Maersk join hands!",

        "raw_content": "Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics\nIn collaboration with school leadership and Polk Virtual School, the Department of Academic Rigor has established twenty middle school Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics (STEAM) Accelerated Academic Programs. The programs have been rolled out district wide since 2010 with new grade levels being added each successive year.\nThe purpose of STEAM is to provide students with an accelerated academic program of study which utilizes college readiness curriculum and offers the potential for students to earn up to six (6) high school credits prior to entering 9th grade. Completion of these credits at the middle level permits more flexibility within a student\u2019s high school schedule to begin college level coursework (Advanced Placement and/or Dual Enrollment) at an earlier age. In addition, students have the opportunity to explore a wider variety of elective programs as they finish their graduation requirements.\nThe academy\u2019s curriculum focus will include: Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics (STEAM). Under this broad umbrella, students will learn middle school concepts at accelerated levels, all through the lens of authentic curriculum experiences, problem-based learning methods, and rigorous and relevant assignments.\nStudents at Daniel Jenkins STEAM Academy will gain the skills to enhance their ability to think critically, work cooperatively, solve complex problems, and drive advancements in science and technology.\nStudents will be placed in Advanced courses in Math, Science, Language Arts, Reading, and Social Studies. In addition, to these courses, students enrolled in the STEAM Academy are placed in Beginning Spanish, Environmental Engineering, and/or Advanced Academics for Gifted.\nOur goal here at Daniel Jenkins STEAM Academy is to prepare our students for their future success. Students are engaged with rigorous and relevant learning opportunities that not only address the state standards but focus on preparing students for their freshman year in college\nUse of Technology in Support of Collaboration, Communication, Creativity, and Critical Thinking\nStandards-based Instruction and Mastery Learning\nProblem-based and Project-based Learning\nUse of Real-time Data to Direct Personalized Learning\nStudent Support from a Team of Teachers, Community Members, and Mentors\nParticipation in enrichment opportunities such as co-curricular activities\nPotential for students to earn up to six (6) high school credits prior to entering 9th grade.\nProvided with opportunities for participation in the co-curricular activities such as Science Fair, History Fair, Technology Student Association Conferences & Competitions (TSA), E-Team Competitions, National Junior Honors Society (NJHS), First Lego League Competitions (FLL), etc.\nSTEAM Academy students are chosen based on the following qualifications:\nAttained at least a level 4 or 5 on FSA in both Reading and Math\nTransferred from another STEAM\nStay on-task and pay attention in class\nComplete all tasks, assignments, homework, and projects by their due date\nRead assigned novels outside of class required\nStudy for all exams, tests, and quizzes\nParticipate in discussions, debates, and other classroom conversations as required\nWork independently or in collaborative pairs/groups as assigned by my teacher (s)\nAsk the teacher for make-up work when absent\nAsk for additional teacher help when needed which may include before-or-after school tutoring\nMake an appointment with my guidance counselor if I need additional assistance with problems related to discipline, attendance, or academic performance\nIn order to maintain participation in the STEAM accelerated program from year to year, students will be evaluated on an annual basis. The evaluation will include a review of the student\u2019s standardized assessment scores, portfolio work, grades, discipline file, and attendance records.\nIf a student earns a D or F during a nine week period in any academic course, the student will be placed on academic probation for nine week period\nMust attend school on a regular basis, chronic tardiness and/or absence could result in withdrawal from the program\nDemonstrate appropriate behavior, any disciplinary actions could result in a probationary period or withdrawal from the program\nAny student placed on a probationary period, are required to attend a parent/teacher conference, failure to do so can result in withdrawal of the program\nMust participate in a co-curricular activity such as science fair, history fair, E-Team, etc.",

Certainly, between multiple trailers and TV spots, it\u2019s hard not to have plenty of story points and major footage from the productions spoiled for you ahead of time.\nOne person who is certainly not a fan of them is filmmaker David Lynch. Currently receiving plaudits for his new season of \u201cTwin Peaks,\u201d which kept itself under heavy wraps right up until release, Lynch explains his dislike of promos to Rolling Stone:\n\u201cThese days, movie trailers practically tell the whole story. I think it\u2019s really harmful. For me, personally, I don\u2019t want to know anything when I go into a theater. I like to discover it, get into that world, try to get as good of picture and sound as possible, no interruptions \u2013 so you can have an experience. And anything that putrefies that is not good.\u201d\nTrailers are tricky \u2013 studios need to promote their films and get audiences to see their films, and they can\u2019t do so without trailers which can often end up being works of art in themselves (and sometimes better than the film they\u2019re promoting). Some filmmakers carefully craft their previews so as not to give away too much, even so \u2013 being truly surprised by a film anymore is exceedingly difficult.\nPrevious article\u201cThe Leftovers\u201d Series Finale Trailer\nNext articleFirst Photos: \u201cThe Mountain Between Us\u201d",

        "raw_content": "What are the advantages of pre-arranging your funeral plans?\nMost individuals avoid planning for his or her funeral. Consequently, they leave the decisions to their beloved ones. Sadly, because of your loved ones emotions, after your death, paying for your funeral may be unnecessarily expensive. Funeral and burial costs can easily exceed $10,000.\nTherefore, to avoid the guilt of your loved one's spending money on your funeral, you can plan your own funeral. However, it is very important investigate the options and never let your self be pressured into buying goods you do not require. Consequently, you must learn to be an informed consumer.\nPurchasing a pre-paid funeral, unfortunately, is like purchasing an automobile. Funeral Homes can vary in thousands of dollars. Therefore, do not assume that a funeral cost will be the identical no matter where you go. By law, the Funeral Home must give you a checklist of all costs of items and services. Typically, these costs are for the initial conference, consultations, paperwork and overhead. However, there is an extensive variation in the pricing of the basic provider\u2019s fee. Additionally, these costs should include for transportation, care of the body, embalming, and use of the funeral house for viewing, wake, visitation and the memorial ceremony. Also, include various options such as flowers, use of the limousine and a casket. Therefore, obtain price lists from at least three funeral homes, before you make a selection.\nYou may wish to make preparations upfront, but not pay for the providers in advance. However, these prices will change over time.\nTherefore, you can make your preferences known by writing them down in your letter of instructions. Remember to provide copies to your family members and your lawyer, in addition to maintaining a copy in a handy and accessible location.\nBe certain the funeral home is licensed and has a good reputation within the community.\nTags: burial costs, funeral homes, investigate options, pre pay funerals, pre planning",

        "raw_content": "Orff Schulwerk is an approach to music teaching and learning, combined with and supported by movement, based on things children like to do: sing, chant rhymes, clap, dance, and keep a beat or play a rhythm on anything near at hand. These natural behaviors are directed first into responding to and making music; reading and writing music are a later natural outgrowth of these experiences. Composer Carl Orff, originator of the approach, called this music and movement activity \u201celemental\u201d \u2013 basic, unsophisticated, concerned with the fundamental building blocks of both art forms.\nThe purpose is to provide a means for awakening the potential in every child for being \u201cmusical\u201d \u2013 able to understand and use music and movement as forms of expression. The further intent is to develop a foundation for lifelong enjoyment of music and movement/dance, and for some, the incentive for specialized individual study.\nMusic/movement educators trained in the Orff approach function both as instructors and facilitators, guiding students through several phases of development:\nExploration \u2013 discovering the possibilities inherent in movement, speech, singing and the various instrumental resources;\nImitation \u2013 developing the ability to repeat specific patterns, which can then be used as vocabulary for improvisation and later for original composition;\nImprovisation \u2013 using known material in spontaneous performance of individual new music and movement ideas;\nComposition \u2013 developing material, through the previous three phases, that can be remembered, repeated, and often also written down. (Music literacy is definitely considered important in Orff Schulwerk, but not fundamental to being a \u201cmusical\u201d person.)\nIn sum, Orff Schulwerk as a music pedagogy offers complementary support to learning in all areas, joining the efforts of music teachers in the commitment to the intellectual and personal growth of all students.\nFor more information about Orff Schulwerk in Education, view the What is Orff Schulwerk? Brochure. The description of the Schulwerk that appears on this page is taken from a document published by AOSA titled AOSA Fact Sheet: What is Orff Schulwerk?

        "raw_content": "Winner of \u2018Green Nobel\u2019 says India Plundering not Protecting Tribal Lands\nNEW DELHI : India is plundering the land of its indigenous people to profit from mining, with little regard of the devastation caused to poor tribal communities, said an Indian land rights activist who won the prestigious Goldman Environmental Prize on Monday.\nPrafulla Samantara, 66, from India\u2019s eastern state of Odisha is one of six winners of the annual prize \u2014 often known as the \u201cGreen Nobel\u201d \u2014 which honors grassroots activists for efforts to protect the environment, often at their own risk.\nSamantara, recognized by the Goldman jury for winning a 12-year legal battle to stop a multi-national firm mining bauxite on tribal lands, said he was honored by the award but voiced concern at the continued mining threats faced by India\u2019s tribes.\n\u201cThe state has a history of not honoring legal protections of indigenous people in the constitution. Corporate influence and the promise of profits continues to tempt the government to disregard indigenous people\u2019s rights,\u201d Samantara told the Thomson Reuters Foundation in an interview.\n\u201cThe mining-based industry has become priority for the government and the global market, but it does not support the common people. They are often led to believe that mining is for their own benefit, but then they are displaced by destructive development.\u201d\nIndia\u2019s tribes make up almost 10 percent of its 1.3 billion population. Yet most live on the margins of society \u2014 inhabiting remote villages and eking out a living from farming, cattle rearing and collecting and selling forest produce.\nMany live in mineral-rich regions such as Odisha, Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh and Jharkhand, and risk being chased off their ancestral land due to a rising number of mining projects.\nWhile their land is protected under a decade-old law known as the Forest Rights Act, few know their rights \u2014 leaving them open to exploitation.\nSince Prime Minister Narendra Modi\u2019s government swept to power almost three years ago, it has taken a pro-business approach by fast-tracking environmental clearances for mining firms in a bid to boost investment, jobs and growth.\nThe son of a village farmer who went on to college to study economics and then law, Samantara led a battle against the London-headquartered Vedanta Resources which wanted to mine bauxite from a mountain considered sacred by indigenous people in Odisha.\nHe was kidnapped, assaulted and attacked for his activism against, but in the end, a vote of villagers \u2014 which had been ordered by the Supreme Court \u2014 rejected the mine.\nSamantara \u2014 described by the Goldman jury as an \u201ciconic leader\u201d \u2014 slammed the government for blocking the foreign funds of thousands of charities, including green groups.\n\u201cIt is deplorable. Many are fighting legally and are being targeted by the government,\u201d he said.\nDespite increasing threats to the environment and to those fighting to protect it, Samantara said he remained optimistic.\n\u201cI feel there is a growing threat to the very existence of Mother Earth if man-made destruction of nature is not stopped. But I see a ray of light,\u201d he said.\n\u201cThough my contributions may be a drop in the ocean, thousands like me in the world can bring a radical change in thinking and spur action, encouraging a shift from consumption to preservation and conservation for future generations.\u201d\nThe Goldman Environmental Prize was established in 1989 by San Francisco philanthropists Richard and Rhoda Goldman and provides $175,000 cash award to each individual.\nOther winners were Congolese Park Ranger Rodrigue Katembo, Guatemalan land rights activist Rodrigo Tot, Australian family farmer Wendy Bowman, Slovenian organic farmer Uros Macerl and a Los Angeles community organizer by the name of Mark Lopez.\nGreen Nobel\nPrafulla Samantara",

Silicon Valley Innovation Channel Ding Ding TV reporter Rui interviewed Megan Floke, Executive Director of Green Foothills, and Shay Franco-Clausen, who is the Director of district 5 in Open Space Authority. This is the day that the City Council considered public purchase of land in North Coyote Valley. San Jose Voters have approved Measure T in November 2018 with more than 70% voters. The measure included $50 million for natural infrastructure, environmental conservation, and floodplain protection in Coyote Valley. Coyote Valley was one of the last remaining undeveloped valley floors in the Bay Area. San Jose residents and City Council believed that the valley was a home to more than 200 species of birds, including endangered wildlife. It was a very essential source of drinking water and heritage of local agriculture. More than that, Coyote Valley played an important role in reducing the risk of natural disasters by capturing and storing floodwaters.\nOne of the speakers in the Rally said that: \u201cif we lose it, we lose it forever.\u201d This was the attitude which all the San Jose residents had. Each one of us is responsible for protecting our land, our home, and our nature.\nReported by Ding Ding TV",

        "raw_content": "Journals from Afghanistan\nby Jonathan Hoffman | 2011\nSUNNY KABUL PART 1 Hey Folks, As we started to make our descent into Kabul, the plane became quiet; everyone started to talk in a whisper. Honoring the no smoking sign but ignoring the seat belt warning, people stretched to look out the window for their first glimpse of home which for some had been years since they had last laid eyes on Afghanistan. People held hands, wiped tears and for some realized that this was the moment that they had dreamed of (or dreaded) for a long time. Choosing an aisle seat gave me an opportunity to observe this instead of looking out the window myself. Besides I have seen Afghanistan from the air before. It\u2019s brown with mountains and the occasional splash of green. The two 20 year old men sitting next to me had lived in Hamburg Germany for the last 8 years. When I asked them if their parents would meet them in Kabul they said that they did not know where their parents were. You do the math. I have been a busy boy since I landed. I barely have had time to write in my journal either because of time constraints or because I was just too tired to write. Instead of starting 1st thing on the Mir Bacha Kot project, it was proposed that I head for Ghazni where I could check on last years projects 1st then return to Kabul where those who would be of assistance would be available to help. So the next day I headed for Ghazni by taxi ($100.00). The trip was similar to last years except...\nHey Folks, O.K. folks, Went back up stairs and found the floppy with my previous e-mails that could not be sent. Better late then never. This should be enough for now though please be aware that most of what I said about the projects have been changed. I will summarize those changes when I do the final edition back home. Peace. Jonathan $2 billion vs. $400 million. Ghazni Afghanistan Hey Folks, Sorry for the delay but that\u2019s the way it goes when you can\u2019t even phone your next door neighbour let alone send an e-mail. There are no internets cafes so I can not say for sure when or if I will get another letter off while here. It was a long trip, but I made it to Kabul on schedule. My 1st two nights were spent at the Intercontinental hotel. Great view of Kabul from there. My room had the added attraction of large bullet holes to give one a taste of the past ten years. I wonder how many rooms are liveable at the moment. In many ways Kabul was as I expected, hot & dusty, no electricity for most. Generators are key. It was cleaner then I thought which isn\u2019t saying much. The main roads have been repaired to a degree that encourages accidents. There is an organized chaos on the streets, cars & trucks do a dance with bicycles and roundabouts that is always showing me new manoeuvres. The women still mostly wear Burkas; unfortunately it appears as if the liberating of women will take some time. It is the same in the countryside where...\nJournals from Kosovo\nHey folks, This letter may get a little long, but it should be the last one for some time. Enjoy life and keep in touch. It has been over two years since I started planning my 1st trip to the Balkans. What started out as an idea about the size of a matchbox just kept getting larger. A lot has happened in that time, more than I could begin to describe in one entry. The best way to describe my experience is to say it was like being in a movie without a script, and so far has no ending. What made me go in the first place? Four trips later I still struggle with that question. As another volunteer once said, if you could answer That question clearly I would be a little skeptical. In brief it was part humanitarian, part adventure. The places I have been, the people I have met, and, most importantly, the people we have helped has verified that whatever the reason, I made the right choice. Before I go too far I should mention that even though I enjoy being at the center of attention, I do not enjoy being the center of attention, at least in this case. I feel uncomfortable accepting the praise and accolades I receive for the work we have done. I want to emphasize the word WE. None of what I/we have accomplished would have been possible without the help of literally a couple hundred people here in Vermont, the U.S., and the Balkans and all over the world. To list them all would be next to impossible,...\nWell where do I start? I do not have as much time as I would hope to get this off so I will try and be complete. I must warn you that it will be a lengthy one so save it for later if you have to. My trip over was fairly smooth except for in Vienna. The plane was full and waiting for one last passenger whose bags were already on the plane. When he / she did not show, they had to have each one of us disembark the plane and identify our luggage. This added an extra hour to the delay. YES! The next day Rand, Liriejta and I took a drive into the country to try and locate the Berisha family. This is the family whose last name I thought was \u201cFala\u201d. Oh well, wrong name, right family. They were still at the same location as last summer. The children are well; mom said that she has not had to take one to the doctor in over a year. Not bad for seven children. They looked well, thin, but happy. They are attending a new school that was built in the village and all are getting good grades. They recognized Rand right off, yes they said, we remember you as they made a motion like throwing a Frisbee. Then they picked up 3 rocks to show him that they still could juggle. As Rand mentioned later to me it helped him realize that all that the Balkan Sunflowers do with children here is not in Vain. They know how to smile, laugh, hug, juggle, and...\nIt has been a hot and dusty week, the perspiration dries before you can absorb it in your clothes. I have been trying to keep hydrated; yesterday I was out in the sun and was in a car without A.C. so it was a tough day. I will try and give a run down of events that have been occurring this week. On Monday Rand and I had a social appointment with the director of Xhevedet Doda. We went to his house/flat to meet his family and look at his photo albums. He has had an interesting life. Several times he has been placed in Prison in 1969 he spent a month in jail; in 1974 he started a 5 year sentence. In 1981 another 2 months, 1989-3 months, and 1998 another 3 months. The exact reason was unclear because of translation but I can tell you that this man is of great character and in my opinion did nothing that would deserve such treatment. I suppose that you could say that about a number of people who have similar stories here in Kosova. Basically it was because they did not change with the new system fast enough. It is hard to deny basic Human Nature/ Rights to ask why about something. As Rand and I were walking out the door he asked us to wait one more minute and then disappeared downstairs to the basement. When he came back up he had 2 bottles of 1992 Kosova Cabernt Sauvignon. He informed us that it was a superb year and was a quality wine. We realized that this was...\nI hope that the last message did not Rock your world to much. Just a little frustration on my part. It is still slow going here, like I have said several times before it takes 3 times as long to get the simplest thing accomplished here. I was in the field yesterday doing some more observations and assessment. For some at UNHCR they look and wonder if I am the new guy or something. Today I went with Alina a Russian field officer for UNHCR who works primarily with the minority populations here in Kosova. Serbs mainly. Today we went high in to the hills past Podujeva to a small Serb hamlet called Sekiraqa It required an escort from the local Czech KFOR troops. The local villagers have a 3 K.M. walk to catch a Serbian Bus into a Serb town. That is how close we were to the Border. Beautiful country. as I told the elder as I left you can almost touch the clouds from here. They treated me warmly even though Americans are considered an enemy of the Serbs. We drank \u201cSjivovica\u201d a Plum ROCKET FUEL! In situations like this it is my duty to drink and toast, drink and toast. Even if it is only 12p.m. Pretty potent stuff. In the few experiences (yeah right) where I have had to drink so much so early I am normally done for the day by 5 p.m. this stuff actually does not have that effect. I was fine until my normal bed time. I guess that the training before/during my trip helped! I was there for several...\nHey everyone, Sorry that I haven\u2019t been able to get a message to you, have had problems with my#$%^*&&^hotmail account! The trip here went as smooth as it possibly could. It pays to do your homework. I have found that if you don\u2019t push things to hard it all will fall into place. My contact for this project has been delayed in Zurich Switzerland and I still have not been in touch with her in person. So Plan B was?? Good question. So I went to UNHCR yesterday and told them of our project and they have been most helpful! Today I had a field officer named Trim take me to Plementina; it is just west of Prishtina. There is a small Kosovar Albanian village that has been pretty well wiped out. They are sandwiched between a Roma camp on one side and a Serbian village on the other side. From a safety and comfort aspect it was not a wise decision to put them (Roma Camp) there, The Serbian village is about the same as the Kosovar village in the amount of destruction, this was retaliation on the part of the Kosovars. Remember that I plan on staying out of the whys and want to concentrate on the Need! For My personal safety and the Balkan Sunflowers safety I have decided to only work with Kosovar Albanians. I have found a place that is in need. I have also found an N.G.O that will help me with assessment and purchase and distribution. They think that what we are doing is great! I have for the moment concentrated on...\nGood Morning, The trip here went as smooth as it could. Stayed the 1st night in Skopje Macedonia, got a chance to visit Balkan sunflowers Headquarters there and see what they are up to. The 70-80 kilometer trip from Skopje to Prishtina took 4 hours, not bad compared to the horror stories of 6-8 hours. Imagine a 2 lane road trying to be 3 1/2 lanes! Tractor trailers lined up on both sides of the border for miles waiting to get inspected. Weather yesterday was a balmy Global warming 55-60 degrees! 5 minutes after I got to the apartment in Prishtina the electricity came on. Someone must have known I was coming! So far I have visited our sister school, delivered the photo album and nicnacs. Very happy to see me. I will take pictures for ETC. During the rest of the week. I was hoping to get to Vushtrri today but doubt that it will happen. I will try tomorrow. My friend/ contact Xheri was delayed in Zurich because of fog in Skopje, hopefully she will be here today. If you haven\u2019t noticed yet I will point out that I had to use a different e-mail server. You can mail me messages there but please keep it to a minimum. Hotmail is not connecting. Everything here takes 3 times as long as normal. Patience Jonathan, Yea right! Anyway I do not have my entire e-mail addressee with me so this is going out to ETC and Sharon at MRG. Sharon could you hook up with Chris and Mandy and start the e-mail tree again for me? Just forward...\nFamily & Friends, This will probably be the last e-mail for the near future as at this time the communication in Kosova is not that good. Hopefully that will change and I can get word back to you. I am headed for Prishtina on Tuesday or Wednesday. Hopefully a W.F.P. World Food Program from Tirana to Prishtina, and if not by flight, then by minibus. There are 6 of us who will then split up into groups of 2 and proceed to Sunflower stations in Prishtina, Peja and Gjakova. I will stay in Prishtina at first, 3 weeks is a long time so who knows. I may head to Mitrovica where it is a hot spot between Serbs and Kosovars to see what is happening there. If you are worried about my safety, don\u2019t be. Reports are that it is safer is Kosova than here in Tirana. There is food to buy, beer to drink and smokes to smoke, no I have not quit! Can you blame me? The time spent in Tirana has been rewarding there is truly a need for more of what we are doing right here and now. Still I need to get a more accurate idea of the need in Kosova for both you and me. Our mission is to set up safe areas for children to play so that the family can work and the children are not playing with land mines. It seems like every land mine team on the planet is headed for Kosova. It\u2019s good to see that everyone wants a piece of the action. This week I have attended...",

        "raw_content": "Cyber-security in the emerging digital world\nAuthor : Chris Evans, Marketing & Operations Group Manager, Mitsubishi Electric Europe B.V. Automation System\nSmart Manufacturing relies on a greater convergence of the IT and OT layers of a business and if that is applied to an existing plant, it would be reasonable to assume that the potential for cyber-attack, if not understood and mitigated against would be higher.\nIf we were designing a new plant on a greenfield site, it would be relatively easy to build it while being mindful of all the current cyber-security issues and vulnerabilities. The reality is that most manufacturing plants in the UK have been around a long time and most of the automation considerations are centred around productivity not cyber-security. In this existing industrial landscape, it was realised that control systems were potentially vulnerable, often due to out of date or poorly maintained operating systems and CD drives or USB ports that had not been locked down.\nCyber-security is an arms race of escalating capabilities, so \u2018defenders\u2019 of vulnerable assets must see it as a journey rather than a destination, constantly reassessing the situation and implementing new defences whenever necessary. This is against the background of developing technologies and requirements that mean control systems are always becoming bigger, more complex, more distributed and increasingly open.\nTo be successful the defence strategy against cyber-attack must be seen in a holistic way and needs to happen at all levels of the enterprise. This must start at the plant level and automation equipment manufacturers must look to build in security as a natural part of the design process.\nFor instance, PLCs (programmable logic controllers) need to include multiple embedded features such as hardware security keys and multi-layer password structures.\nUse of hardware security key authentication prevents programs from being opened or edited on unapproved personal computers that have not been \u201cbound\u201d to the security key. PLC CPUs can also be paired to the security key and programs will not run unless this hardware match exists. This also has the benefit of protecting the intellectual property of the control system. Additionally, IP filtering should be used to register the IP addresses of devices approved to access each PLC or HMI (Human Machine Interface). This makes unauthorised access much more difficult.\nWhilst end users will want maximum security; they will also continue to insist on simplicity of operation. Some of these automation security measures, all of which are optional, could be argued to complicate operations and that is why a holistic view of security needs to be taken, considering all aspects of the operation. It may be that in some areas, some measures can be relaxed for the sake of continued operations and this is fine provided that the risk has been assessed and counter measures are implemented elsewhere to alleviate the threat. As with everything related to cyber-security the consideration has to be probability and risk, security and operational systems should be designed around these important criteria.\nIt is probably an unchangeable aspect of the human condition that some people will always seek unauthorised access to control systems. Therefore, manufacturers and control engineers must build security measures into their products and systems and recognise that these are surmountable hurdles rather than impregnable barriers, so must be constantly renewed and redeveloped.\nSolutionsPT to host Cryptomining webinar for OT professionals(22/01/2019)\nBrexit and cyber threats biggest risks to UK businesses in 2019(15/01/2019)\nCyber security for machines(14/01/2019)\nFingerprint tech lets drivers unlock/start vehicle without keys(02/01/2019)",

The film was shot in Arabic, but it seems that in France the dialogue was dubbed into French, whereas the English language DVD has the original Arabic dialogue with English subtitles, which is thus more authentic. The lead actress, of magical beauty and talent, is Leila Bekhti. She is of Algerian descent but was born in France. The actress who plays her sister Loubna/Esmeralda, Hafsia Herzi, was also born in France and is of mixed Tunisian and Algerian descent. Bekhti''s vicious and unbalanced mother-in-law is played by Hiam Abbass, an Israeli Arab who has acted in 65 films. Mihaileanu has been very clever to find these amazing actresses, who are all completely convincing as locals who inhabit the small village where the story is set. This is a film about women who rebel against the oppressive customs of their lazy, and often brutal, husbands, who justify their indolence and oppression of their wives by ''tradition'', or sometimes by unconvincing references to their religion. For hundreds, or perhaps thousands, of years, the women of the village have brought the village''s water in buckets from the spring (''source'' in French, hence the title). The spring is high up the mountain slope behind the village, and the pathway is very rough and difficult. Many of the women have had miscarriages because they slipped and fell carrying the buckets of water while they were pregnant. We see an instance of this near the beginning of the film. While the women exhaust themselves and lose their babies by these exertions, the idle husbands sit on a small terrace sipping mint tea all day long because they have no jobs. It has never occurred to any of them to fetch the water or assist his wife. They just sit there, lazy slobs that they are. And if a baby dies, so what. The situation becomes intolerable to her, so Leila Bekhti rebels, supported by the aged widow called Vieux Fusil (Mrs. Rifle in the subtitles), magnificently portrayed by the actress Biyouna, who is a true native Algerian. Bekhti persuades other women in the village to go on ''love strike'' by denying their rampant husbands their nightly sex. Many of the women get beaten, and some get raped when the husbands become furious and violent. Bekhti is secretly supported by her own husband, who genuinely loves her, and he sneaks out at night to carry some buckets of water down from the spring himself, the only man in the village who ever does so. He does this on the quiet because he is afraid the other men might attack him violently if they knew that he had done ''women''s work''. One gets a very good idea why nothing ever happens in North Africa by way of business development, since there appears to be no initiative amongst the men, who are mostly seen to be arrogant, spoiled, pompous, querulous, and many of them are very violent indeed, almost psychopathically so. An Imam lectures the women that it says in the Koran that a man should beat his wife if she is disobedient. However, Bekhti, who is the only woman in the village who can read, quotes to the old Imam rival suras from the Koran and a Hadith (''Sayings of the Prophet'') text which crush his arguments, so that he becomes dejected and ceases to oppose them. Many of the men of the village organise a scheme to renounce their wives and get new, obedient and excessively religious wives to come in and take their place. But the Imam ends his support for this scheme after Bekhti defeats him in her theological arguments. One of the most strenuous opponents of the women is Nissam, the son of Biyuona. She fearlessly berates him, tells him he is a good for nothing, and eventually throws him out of the house. This film tackles head-on the problems of the oppression of women and religious fanaticism in the Muslim world in North Africa. One of the remarkable aspects of the film is that the women communicate their stories and grievances by improvising songs rather than by speaking, which seems to be a local custom. They repeatedly shame their men by out-singing them. This is an extremely profound and very deep examination of life in a remote ethnic community, and a story of great courage. The film is both extremely emotional and deeply disturbing. It is never possible to watch a Mihaileanu film without being both shaken and stirred. It is another triumph for that brilliant director, a Paris resident of Romanian origin, who is certainly one of the finest film directors working in Europe today.\n\u0e20\u0e32\u0e1e\u0e22\u0e19\u0e15\u0e23\u0e4c\u0e40\u0e23\u0e37\u0e48\u0e2d\u0e07\u0e19\u0e35\u0e49\u0e2d\u0e22\u0e39\u0e48\u0e43\u0e19\u0e1b\u0e23\u0e30\u0e40\u0e20\u0e17: BeautifulPicture: originArabMuslimIndianIsrael: originSpanishLatinAfrican: originEurope: SubtitleEnglish: recommend",

        "raw_content": "What Is Causing Your Kitchen and Bathroom Sinks to Clog?\nOctober 5, 2017 Suzana Mikolova General Article\nThere is nothing more frustrating than a clogged drain. If your kitchen sink is clogged, you are unable to wash the dishes for days until it gets fixed. If the bathtub is clogged, you will not be able to take a clear shower or a clean bath. If the toilet is clogged, you will have to face a smelly bathroom and a toilet that is out of order. If you have a large family and only a few bathrooms in the house, this is especially annoying and something that must be fixed as soon as possible. You might need drain cleaning Leesburg FL. Clogged drains can also lead to problems with your washing machine, causing you to be unable to wash your clothes in a timely manner.\nAnother problem that clogged drains can cause is flooding and damage in your home. If the drains are clogged, your toilet can overflow, causing a big mess. You might be careful yourself not to cause a flood, but you can\u2019t always rely on your kids knowing what to do and what not to do when the toilet is clogged.\nThere are many things that can cause your drain to be clogged. Grease is just one common cause. Of course, it is what causes your kitchen sink to get clogged. If you cook a lot of meat and chicken, then you probably dispose of the grease before you cook or reheat your food. Many people just pour the grease down the sink because they think it is the easiest and cleanest way to get it out of their sight as soon as possible. However, the truth is that if you keep on doing that, your sink will eventually get clogged with grease. There are other things that can cause a kitchen sink to get clogged. If you pour leftover cereal down the sink, for example, it can get clogged. The same goes for if you peel potatoes and carrots in your sink. If you do any of those things, you must make sure that you are using a drainage stopper to catch the cereal or the peels so that you can dispose of them in the trash can after you finish.\nAnother common cause of drain blockage is hair. This type of blockage usually occurs in bathroom sinks and in tubs. When you prepare for the day in the morning or when you take a shower at night, you usually comb your hair. If you have long hair, the hair will get caught in the drain. Over time, it will clog it and the water will not be able to go down anymore. This can happen if you have a beard as well, not just if you have long hair.\nYou can try fishing the hair out of your drain, but you may not be able to reach all the hair. In addition, using something sharp to fish out the hair can ruin your sink. Your best bet would be to call a professional to help you out.\nTaking Care of Problems with Commercial Air Conditioning Units",

        "raw_content": "EATG \u00bb Alcohol, not marijuana, linked to liver injury in women with both HIV and hepatitis C\nAlcohol, not marijuana, linked to liver injury in women with both HIV and hepatitis C\nHepatitis C virus (HCV) infects the liver and can cause inflammation. If the infection becomes chronic, the struggle between the virus and the immune system results in healthy liver tissue being replaced with useless scar tissue in a process called fibrosis. Over time, more of the liver becomes injured and, if left untreated, HCV infection can result in scar tissue encompassing the liver, leading to serious complications, liver failure and an increased risk for liver cancer. In caring for patients who have HCV infection (with or without HIV co-infection), doctors have been examining potential factors that could speed up the rate of scar tissue forming.\nOne well-known risk factor for liver injury among people with HCV is alcohol consumption. In the past decade, researchers have been investigating other potential factors such as marijuana use.\nStudies of different designs have produced conflicting findings about the safety of marijuana in people co-infected with HIV and HCV. To find clarity on this issue, researchers in the U.S. analysed data collected from a long-term study on the health of women. During the study, women were surveyed about substance use and their liver health was regularly assessed. The researchers found that over a period of about 11 years use of marijuana was not linked to any increased risk for scarring of the liver among women with HIV-HCV co-infection. However, they did find that alcohol use was linked to an increased risk for the formation of scar tissue within the liver.\nReceptors and HCV\nCells of the body have proteins on their surface called receptors. These receptors interact with different substances, including other proteins and chemical messengers. Cells in different organ-systems have receptors for cannabinoids. This is the term used for compounds found in marijuana and similar compounds produced by the body. The body produces cannabinoids in very small amounts and these attach to receptors specially designed to bind to cannabinoids.\nThere are two main types of such receptors\u2014CB1 and CB2. The CB1 receptors are found in high concentrations in the brain and also on liver, intestine and fat cells. The CB2 receptors are found mainly on cells of the immune system and also the liver. When the body produces cannabinoids (or someone consumes marijuana, which contains cannabinoids), these compounds bind to CB1 and CB2 and affect the activity of cells.\nSome people with HCV infection use marijuana and some doctors have wondered about the potential effect of this herb on the health of the liver. A possible reason underpinning their concern is that HCV infection causes liver cells to have increased amounts of receptors for cannabinoids. In theory, this could make the livers of people with HCV infection more sensitive to any effects of the compounds in marijuana.\nResearchers at major clinics in Baltimore, Chicago, New York and San Francisco have been collaborating on a large study called WIHS (pronounced \u201cwise\u201d) to monitor the health of women at high risk for and who have HIV infection. Some of the women with HIV are also co-infected with HCV. Women participating in WIHS are regularly monitored, undergo interviews, get physical exams and have blood drawn every six months for analysis. All of this data is collected and periodically analysed for different trends.\nWomen were recruited for WIHS during the following periods:\nFor the purposes of the present analysis on marijuana use, researchers focused on data collected from 575 women (out of a possible 4,137) who had both HIV and HCV. The average profile of the women upon entering the study was as follows:\nthe most common strain, or genotype, of HCV was genotype 1 (found in 88% of women)\nHCV viral load \u2013 6.1 logs\nHIV viral load \u2013 4.1 logs (only 6% of the women were taking ART when they entered the study)\n30% had higher-than-normal blood pressure\n18% had type-2 diabetes\n80% smoked tobacco\n23% injected street drugs\nlength of time in the study \u2013 11 years\nAbout FIB-4\nResearchers used a formula called FIB-4 to estimate the degree of scarring of the liver. The formula for estimating FIB-4 requires a person\u2019s age and the following blood test results:\nthe liver enzyme AST\nthe liver enzyme ALT\nThe initial studies used to develop FIB-4 and compare it to the results of liver biopsies were done in more than 1,200 patients. Subsequently, research teams in high-income countries have also performed independent investigations of FIB-4 and its relation to liver fibrosis in several thousand patients. These teams have found that, overall, while FIB-4 is not perfect, it can be a useful and general guide to the degree of scarring in the liver.\nResults\u2014Marijuana use\n11% of participants reported using marijuana once weekly in the past six months\n6% of participants reported using marijuana daily in the past six months\nThe researchers stated that 67% of women in the study \u201cabstained from [marijuana] or [used it] less than weekly for the entire duration of [monitoring].\u201d\nWhen researchers compared women who used marijuana to women who did not use marijuana, there was no significant link between marijuana use and an increased risk for scarring of the liver. This was the case whether or not women used marijuana daily or less frequently. It was also the case regardless of the number of years women used marijuana.\nFocus on fibrosis\nOver the course of the study, 51% of the women developed a significant degree of scarred liver tissue (graded as F3 to F4). The researchers found that the following factors were significantly associated with worsening liver injury:\nhigher FIB-4 score upon entering the study\nlower CD4+ cell count upon entering the study\nalcohol use over the course of the study\nThese findings make sense, as the higher FIB-4 score would indicate more liver injury than a lower FIB-4 score. Past research has found that untreated HIV infection (suggested here by a lower CD4+ count) is linked to a faster rate of liver injury in co-infected people.\nFinally, alcohol is a well-known risk factor for liver injury. The researchers stated that \u201coverall alcohol use at study entry was low.\u201d However, the researchers found that 19% of women had \u201cheavy alcohol use\u201d when they entered the study, which they defined as more than seven alcoholic drinks per week. During their last visit to a study clinic, researchers found that 9% of women reported heavy alcohol use.\nIt is possible that some women did not disclose the full extent of their use of alcohol and marijuana.\nNeither liver biopsies nor fibro scans of the liver were performed to assess fibrosis. However, such procedures would have added to the study\u2019s complexity and cost. Although FIB-4 is imperfect, it can be a useful way of indirectly assessing the degree of scarring in this organ.\nAccording to the researchers, there was \u201ca relatively small number of heavy [marijuana] users.\u201d It is possible that this could have somehow inadvertently biased the conclusions reached in this study. However, the long period of monitoring liver fibrosis, coupled with an equally long period of marijuana use, add strength to the study\u2019s findings.\nIn summary, no matter what type of relevant statistical analysis was used, the researchers stated: \u201cWe found no evidence that [marijuana] use increases the risk of [worsening] liver fibrosis in women with HIV-HCV co-infection.\u201d\nKelly EM, Dodge JL, Sarkar M, et al.

Now called the \u201csingle-use internal condom,\u201d the device is approved for both vaginal and anal sex and has the same regulatory classification as the \u201cmale\u201d condom. The internal condom has never enjoyed widespread popularity in this country, and recent changes to how the manufacturer distributes it have made it even harder to access.\nAdvocates \u2014 who have been pushing for these rule changes for years \u2014 are hopeful that they will lead to increased use of this important prevention tool by removing barriers for both users and manufacturers.\nThe internal condom \u2014 which was first introduced in 1993 and redesigned as FC2 in 2006 \u2014 is a sheath or pouch now made out of a synthetic rubber called nitrile. There is a flexible ring inside the closed end that can be inserted into the vagina to help the condom stay in place. The open end stays outside the body, creating a barrier that blocks the exchange of semen and other bodily fluids during intercourse to prevent pregnancy and sexually transmitted infection (STI). Though originally only approved for vaginal sex, research suggests that the device is used during anal sex as well.\nThe internal condom is an important prevention method, because it is the only barrier method controlled by receptive partners, who are at more risk for STIs and HIV than insertive partners. However, it has not been a widely popular method in the United States. The National Survey of Family Growth suggests that fewer than 0.2% of women who use contraception rely on this as their primary method of pregnancy prevention (compared to 8.7%, for example, who rely on the \u201cmale\u201d condom). It is possible that more people rely on it for STI/HIV prevention, but there is little data on this type of use.\nWhat we do know, however, is that in 2017, Veru Healthcare, the only company in the U.S. that manufactures the product, stopped making it available in retail stores and pharmacies because it simply wasn\u2019t selling there. As TheBody reported at the time, a company representative pointed to one large pharmacy chain that stocked the product in numerous stores and had only done $12 worth of sales over the previous two years. Most users get the product through health departments or community-based organizations.\nAdvocates believed that FDA\u2019s rules and classifications might have something to do with the product\u2019s lack of popularity and have been pushing the agency for rule changes, starting with the name. The National Female Condom Coalition, which spearheaded these efforts, argued that the gendered name may prevent receptive partners who do not identify as female from using the condom. Research suggests, for example, that between 13% and 21% of gay and bisexual men have used the product during anal sex. It could be appropriate for some transgender and non-binary individuals as well, but they might also be turned off by the name. In a sample letter to the FDA, the coalition wrote: \u201cDe-gendering the product name will reduce the perception that it is only intended and appropriate for use by women.\u201d The coalition suggested the name \u201cinternal condom\u201d because it had already been commonly used among public health professionals and sex educators.\nThe perception that this product is solely for women, however, was not limited to its name. Until now, the device had only ever been approved for vaginal sex. The coalition argued that the internal condom is an important method of STI protection during anal sex, both for men who have sex with men and for women in heterosexual relationships. In the sample letter, the coalition pointed to studies suggesting that up to 12% of sexually active women engage in anal sex, and most do so without a condom. The letter says, \u201cThis exposure to risk can be reduced by clearly labeling the female condom as a product designed for anal, as well as vaginal, use.\u201d\nThe final change made by the FDA has to do with the regulation of manufacturers. Since they came on the market, internal condoms were considered a Class III device, which meant manufacturers had to go to greater lengths to get FDA approval for new brands or updated versions of these devices. Advocates argued that downgrading it to a Class II medical device \u2014 which is the same classification held by \u201cmale\u201d condoms \u2014 could ease the burden on manufacturers and ultimately help bring competitors into what is now a single-source market.\nThe FDA released proposed changes to the rules in December 2017 and encouraged public comment. The final rules were announced last September in the Federal Register. \u201cWe are thrilled to learn about these changes and so grateful for the tireless efforts of sexual health advocates across the globe who worked for years to demand greater access to this prevention method, which truly empowers people to take control of their health on their own terms,\u201d Sara Semelka, a National Female Condom Coalition representative, said in a statement.\nNews categories: Prevention, EMA/FDA",

Findings from the study, which was led by the U.S. Military HIV Research Program (MHRP) of the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research, were published Wednesday in Science Translational Medicine.\nHIV-specific CD8+ T cells are white blood cells that kill cells infected with HIV. CD8+ T cells play a critical role in controlling HIV viremia and could be important in reducing overall numbers of HIV-infected cells in approaches to eradicate HIV.\nResearchers studied HIV-specific CD8+ T cells in samples from MHRP\u2019s unique RV254 acute infection study, a cohort of individuals who are recruited at the earliest stages of acute HIV infection (AHI), usually within weeks of infection, and placed on ART immediately. RV254 is led by Dr. Jintanat Ananworanich, MHRP\u2019s Associate Director for Therapeutics Research, and conducted in collaboration with the Thai Red Cross\nIn the current study, researchers were able to track immune response through three distinct AHI stages. They found that the HIV-specific CD8+ T cells generated during AHI stage 1 and 2, prior to peak viremia, are delayed in expanding and acquiring effector functions, meaning they are less effective at controlling HIV replication.\nIn contrast, the fully differentiated HIV-specific CD8+ T cells found at peak viremia, or AHI stage 3, were associated with a steeper viral load decrease after ART initiation. Importantly, these fully-differentiated cells able persist after ART initiation correlated with a decreased seeding of the HIV reservoir.\n\u201cFully differentiated HIV-specific CD8+ T cells were still present two weeks after ART initiation, but their numbers decline drastically,\u201d said Dr. Lydie Trautmann, MHRP\u2019s Chief of Cellular Immunology and senior author of the paper. \u201cInterventions aiming at prolonging their survival might have profound impact on the HIV reservoir size. The remaining challenge over the next few years will be to find ways to induce and maintain these potent HIV-specific CD8+ effector T cells by immune interventions.\u201d\nThe viral reservoir poses a critical challenge in the quest to cure HIV infection since it contains cells in which the HIV virus can lie dormant for many years, thereby avoiding elimination by antiretroviral therapy.\nThis study was conducted in collaboration with the Thai Red Cross AIDS Research Center and SEARCH Thailand. MHRP\u2019s acute infection cohort in Thailand, RV254, provides insight into crucial stages of early HIV infection in order to better understand how the immune system responds during the critical moments of early infection.\nThe study was supported by NIH grant R01AI108433 and a cooperative agreement (W81XWH-07-2-0067) between the Henry M. Jackson Foundation for the Advancement of Military Medicine, Inc., and the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD).\nAbout MHRP\nThe U.S. Military HIV Research Program (MHRP) at the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research conducts research to develop an effective HIV vaccine and integrates prevention, treatment, diagnosis and monitoring as part of a global effort to protect troops and reduce the impact of HIV worldwide. MHRP has six clinical research sites in the US, Africa and Asia. The program successfully collaborates on HIV prevention care and treatment services, funded by the President\u2019s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR), with African militaries and in the communities where it conducts research.

It gathered together the rest of the material from the album sessions.\nThese two albums have been remastered and packaged together in one 2CD set.\nThe set includes 11 previously unreleased tracks from the sessions and b-sides. It also has a 16 page booklet containing brand new sleevenotes by Wayne Hussey.\nThe band are heading out on their final ever tour culminating in four night's at Shepherd's Bush Empire, where Carved In Sand will be performed in its entirety on the last night and will be The Mission's last ever gig.\nThe Mission \u2013 Carved In Sand 2CD Set\n3.

        "raw_content": "How To Convert PDF To Word Document?\nAmong the major questions, we have asked at our firm is the way to convert PDF file to Word format. It\u2019s an excellent question and one which is very difficult to answer by the majority of people. There surely has to be a button to do it. Not so.\nBelieve it or not, converting PDF file to word document is one of the trickiest conversions out there because of a variety of variables and it is especially interesting as so many businesses want to do it on a regular basis.\nHowever it is not just a matter of converting a level PDF to an image, but also converting the wording and colors of the font, right to a Microsoft Word format for true reproduction, and that is where the tricky part is located.\nWhy is it so tough to convert PDF to Word? Once a dynamic document was converted into a PDF, while it is a horizontal text-searchable PDF, the entire structure of the document changes and that is what makes it so tricky for converting.\nWord files are a lot more complicated than that of a PDF document. After a file has been created to a PDF file as we understand them, they lose pretty much everything that they had and just turn into an optimized image alongside a layer on top that could read the text if it has been exported as a text-searchable file.\nThere are several softwares out there which provide to convert PDF to word document for you, some costing upwards of $1000, but they generally can only convert documents that, upon export, have been made searchable with their own text.\nThis means that the text is far easier to extract, nevertheless, a greater number of PDF files are usually converted the conventional way and flattened upon export usually to shrink the file size of this file.\nPDF\u2019s are usually very lightweight documents and the excess layer of text hidden on top is occasionally known to double the size of this document, so individuals often leave it out.\nHowever this does, of course, leave this issue when the file has to be edited, leaving no choice but to attempt to extract the file into a Word file so that it can be edited and exported once again.\n| Tags: PDF Converter, PDF Converter Software, PDF To Word Document\nThe Easiest way to Buy concert Tickets -Online!\nClothes For Camping Trips \u2013 Most Vital Aspect",

The aim is to explore alternative investment opportunities, allowing schemes to sell their shares and bonds in fossil fuels and to go carbon-free.\nChair of UNISON\u2019s policy committee James Anthony said, \u201cPensions are meant to safeguard our future, but that future is threatened by the burning of carbon in fossil fuels like coal, oil and gas.\n\u201cThis campaign empowers people to hold their pension funds to account. If you contribute to a pension then it\u2019s your money that\u2019s being invested, and so it\u2019s only right that you should have a say in where it\u2019s invested.\u201d\nFigures published last year revealed that \u00a316 billion was invested in the fossil fuel industry by local government pension funds. At its annual conference last year, UNISON made the decision to campaign for divestment from these companies because of the devastating consequences that a changing climate will have on people, societies and ecosystems.\nIn addition to the threat of climate change, the UNISON campaign highlights other reasons why continued investment in carbon threatens the value of pension funds. For example, new government regulations for fossil fuels have raised the costs of high-polluting industries and reduced their investment appeal. Equally, emerging clean and green technology has created new and lucrative business opportunities for funds.\nWith five million members of local government pension schemes, and over 13,000 different employers paying into them, UNISON believes its campaign will resonate with a wide audience and is in a strong position to influence the pensions agenda.\nLocal Government Pension Funds \u2013 Divest From Carbon Campaign: A UNISON Guide is available here\nKeywords:carbon | climate change | divestment | fossil fuels | pensions | unison",

This project started as a thesis and has grown with the support of many organizations and the community.\nRBM is a global movement based in \u0130stanbul and is run by humanitarian volunteers working for human rights.\u201dThe removing barriers movement belongs to anyone who owns it\u201d is the belief supported with the slogan \u201cDo not block your heart,remove the barriers!\u201d.\nThis movement aims to end all obstacles that violate human rights by creating projects/strategies that bring awareness and concrete solutions.The mission is to produce social change by helping marginalized communities claim their rights.This is done by partnering with advocates,organizations and individuals that represent these communities.Supporting the participation in civil society and reinforcing norms and mechanisms for the protection of all human rights is important in influencing the governmental and intergovernmental bodies that hold the key to systems change\nRBM is growing and the need to become an association is inevitable.

        "title": "Eye",
        "raw_content": "EYE, St. Peter & St. Paul (TM 149 737) (March 2009)\nThis is a large and stately town church with a magnificent Perpendicular W. tower and an almost equally impressive S. porch. The rest of the building, however, though not without interest, is commonplace by comparison.\nTo begin then, with the tower (seen left, from the northwest), this rises in four stages to a height of 101 feet (31 m.) and is notable for the prominent, clasping polygonal buttresses at the corners, which recede at each string course and terminate in short pinnacles above the stepped battlements, and for its exceptional display of flint flushwork, which entirely covers the buttresses, the W. wall from top to bottom, and the bell-stage on all sides. The four-light W. window, in a design which is imposing without being particularly inventive, displays supermullioned tracery between strong mullions, two tiers of reticulation units divided by what, effectively, is a latticed supertransom, a plain supertransom higher up across the two central lights, and a transom across all four lights, about a third of the way up from the sill to the springing. The W. doorway has a carved niche on either side and a frieze of shields in blank quatrefoils above. The second and third stages of the tower are both lit to the west by two-light windows, and the bell-stage is pierced by two, two-light, openings in each wall, with segmental-pointed arches. There is a basal frieze around the tower composed of blank sexfoils containing shields, and the north, east and south walls are faced in knapped flint.\nThe unusual appearance of the S. porch today is due to the fact that at some time in the past, what must once have been the flint flushwork facing of its east and west walls, has had the flint replaced by orange brick. The colour combination this produces is equally pleasing, however, and the S. front of the porch, in limestone ashlar, is especially fine (see the photograph, right), with its outer doorway of three orders springing from bowtells, set between two more, large clasping polygonal buttresses at the angles, rising in two receding tiers and decorated on all sides by blank arches, albeit apparently left incomplete above the parapet, where they have been topped in make-shift fashion with a few courses of brick and little octagonal roofs. The upper storey is lit from the south by a two-light supermullioned window which rests on a frieze of quatrefoils set lozenge-wise, and the lower storey is lit to east and west by two-light square-headed windows. The position of the porch stair is evident in the northwest angle, where it is lit at the top by a rectangular slit. A basal frieze around the porch is carved in low relief and a further frieze of encircled quatrefoils sits on the apex of the doorway.\nThe rest of the church consists of a five-bay aisled nave and a three-bay chancel with two-bay chapels, with the addition of a little vestry alongside the sanctuary to the east of the N. chapel. Windows are everywhere Perpendicular, formed of three cinquefoil-cusped lights with strong mullions and supermullioned tracery, augmented above the central lights in the nave aisle and N. chapel windows (but not in the S. chapel windows) by castellated supertransoms. Both the aisles and the chapels are topped by battlements, of which the former are decorated with flushwork and the latter are constructed in brick. There is also a clerestory above both the nave and chancel, but which is more impressive over the chancel, where it consists of two, two-light windows in each bay, with supermullioned tracery and split \"Y\"s, separated by areas of flushwork. It is seen to best effect from the south, above the aisleless sanctuary bay. (See the photograph, right.) Other attractive features at this end of the church are the flushwork decoration on the angle buttresses to the sanctuary, and the flying buttress over the priest's doorway in the S. chapel, like that to be seen in the chancel at Little Stonham. (See the thumbnail, right.)\nEntrance to Eye church today is gained through the tower. A fan vault beneath, has an open circle in the centre which once allowed the bells to be rung from ground level, and the door between the tower and nave is formed of two flat chamfered orders separated by a keeled roll supported on bowtells. This door opens within a tower arch which is interrupted above by an original stone gallery. The nave arcades are earlier and of simple Decorated form, formed of arches bearing a hollow chamfer on the inner order and a narrower flat chamfer on the outer order, springing from octagonal piers with characteristically prominent capitals. The nave clerestory windows, each with three lights and stepped transoms, are positioned above the arcade apices. (The photograph on the right, shows the N. arcade from the east.) The chapel arcades differ both from the nave arcades and each other, though their dates must be similar. The S. chapel arcade (left) is formed of arches bearing three narrow, deep hollows, supported on a central quatrefoil pier and semi-quatrefoil responds with tall bases, with blank semicircles round the necks of the capitals, and fillets down the foils and little spurs between. The slightly longer N. arcade (shown in the thumbnail, right) carries two hollow chamfers above a central quatrefoil pier and semi-quatrefoil responds on shorter bases, and has no spurs or fillets and capitals of simpler design. It is impossible to sequence these arcades on the basis of these stylistic differences, which could be due to the involvement of different masons as much as to any differences in date, but it seems probable that the nave arcades come first. The arches between the aisles and chapels spring from corbels and are double-flat-chamfered on the N. side and double-hollow-chamfered to the south.\nFurnishings in the church can probably be considered to include the double-cusped ogee tomb recess in the N. aisle, which is also Decorated, but the most arresting item is the late fifteenth century rood screen with its partly original loft, which is \"supported\" in front (to the west) by arches rising from pendants. (See the photograph at the foot of the page.) According to David Jones and John Salmon, the authors of the church guide (1980), this is \"the great glory\" of the church, while the figures of assorted saints (of which the majority are female), painted on the dado \"are of particular interest as most of them are quite perfect\". Pevsner, however, who visited the church in 1960 or '61, was altogether less impressed, describing the screen as in a poor state of repair and dismissing the painted figures in two words - \"all bad\". Clearly considerable restoration has taken place since then, though the church guide records only the cleaning of the paintwork in 1960-65. The nave and chancel roofs were heavily restored in 1869 and now look largely of that date.\nMonuments in the church include two sixteenth century tomb chests and a couple of wall monuments worthy of mention, namely: (i) at the west end of the N. aisle, a tomb chest commemorating Nicholas Cutler (d. 1568), with a flat canopy above, bearing a frieze of encircled quatrefoils and supported - interestingly at such an early date - on two Ionic columns; (ii) on the N. wall of the S. chapel (beyond the arcade), a very similar monument, either by the same hand or a direct copy of the first by another sculptor, commemorating William Honyng (d. 1589); (iii) on the S. wall of the sanctuary, an unsigned wall monument dedicated to one, John Brown, a naval surgeon who died in 1732, featuring \"an excellent relief of the Good Samaritan\" (Pevsner); and (iv), a simpler nineteenth century monument commemorating Sir Charles Cunningham (d. 1835), ascribed by Gunnis to John Evan Thomas (1810-73) (Dictionary of British Sculptors; 1660-1851, pub. The Abbey Library, 1951). Born in Breconshire, where he had a substantial practice from 1857, Thomas appears to have been quite a capable artist, Gunnis going so far as to describe his relief of two angels on his monument to Rev. Thomas Watkins in Brecon Cathedral as \"lovely\", though another work, a statue to the second Lord Londonderry, exhibited in Westminster Hall in 1844, was characterized at the time by the Literary Gazette, in one of those turns of phrase in which the Victorians excelled, as \"without intellect in the head and without dignity in the attitude\".",

        "title": "Former VEP CEO reimbursement totals over $15k - Estes Park Trail-Gazette",
        "raw_content": "Former VEP CEO reimbursement totals over $15k\nAt the end of December, as part of her severance package, former Visit Estes Park CEO Elizabeth Fogarty submitted reimbursement requests for business expenses that totaled more than $15,000.\nThe reimbursement requests, submitted on Dec. 28, were requested by the Trail-Gazette through the CORA process. The expenses totaled $15,140.10, and were from Jan. 4, 2017 through Dec. 18, 2017.\nWendi Bryson, Operations Manager at VEP and current records custodian, emailed responses she compiled to a list of questions asked by the Trail-Gazette. She wrote that employees may submit reimbursement requests monthly, quarterly or yearly, but it just to be before the end of the year and fall within the limits of yearly budget.\nThe largest amount of reimbursement requested was from a July trip to the Destinations International Annual Conference in Montreal.\nFogarty arrived in Montreal on July 6 and stayed 12 nights in the four-star LHotel in Montreal, for the price of $3,802.83. In addition to the hotel expense were meals, Ubers and tips.\nThe conference was from July 11-14, Fogarty's stay was from July 6-18, but according to Bryson, Fogarty arrived early to attend classes to become a Certified Destination Management Executive through Destinations International.\nBryson wrote that the classes and testing were both before and after the conference; however, the event's registration web page for the executive sessions state that it is from July 6-11, with no mention of it being after the conference.\nFogarty did not list the United Airlines flight she took to the Conference, but she did expense the $200 change fee on July 10.\nFogarty did expense an airline ticket to Baltimore for $903.40, with change fees of $250, for a marketing conference there. She also asked for reimbursement for a $595 registration fee for that conference.\nThere was more than $3,000 Fogarty expensed for what is designated as staff training at various locations around Denver, like the Denver Chop House and Wynkoop Brewing. There were also approximately a dozen \"stakeholder\" dinners, coffees and lunches Fogarty asked for reimbursement for.\nBryson said that VEP does not keep track of who was involved with expenses, like which stakeholders Fogarty was meeting with or which staff she was purchasing gifts for.\nCharley Dickey, former VEP Board member and Treasurer, said that when he first joined the Board in early 2017 he had a lot of questions about controls on spending. He said he found out that each employee had a company credit card in their name, and Fogarty was the one who set the limits on it.\n\"I never saw [the credit card policy] in writing though,\" Dickey said. \"And I don't know if they have a purchasing procedure or policy.\"\nBryson wrote that each expense report must be signed by the employee submitting it and a manager with signing authority. In Fogarty's case it was the Finance Director Michael Bodman.\nThe expense report and corresponding documentation is then sent to an independent C.P.A. for review, according to Bryson. Once the accountant checks the information against the budget, checks are generated that have to be signed by two VEP Board members with check-signing authority.\nSean Jurgens, current VEP Board Chair, wrote in an email that he was one of the signers of the reimbursement check. He said he was made aware that a significant portion of the reimbursement was due to the trip to Montreal, but based on the current policy, he knew \"the expenses had been properly vetted as appropriate business expenses\" when he signed the check. He also said that no issues had been raised in regards to the purchasing policy and any changes would have to be discussed by the Board.\nDickey said that each card had a cap spending limit, and that could be raised any time as needed the person who had the final say was Fogarty.\nBryson wrote that employees can be reimbursed for business expenses on their personal card, and that Fogarty's business card had malfunctioned numerous times. For example, the renewal did not get mailed in time, or it could not be activated, and the card did not work in Canada, so Fogarty had to use her personal card, according to Bryson.\nEstes Park Mayor Todd Jirsa was not aware of the reimbursement amount that was requested by Fogarty when the Trail-Gazette contacted him for a comment. He said that there was only one action that could be taken in his opinion.\n\"There is only one direction that the Board can go and that is a full forensic audit from day one, and look at every single expenditure,\" Jirsa said. \"That is the only reasonable action that the Board can take at this point.\"\nHe said he doesn't have all the details, but an audit is the only reasonable response to these types of things.\n\"This is public tax money and that Board and CEO have a responsibility to the taxpayers and the Board needs to get to the bottom of this,\" Jirsa said. \"I will be extremely disappointed if the Board doesn't take that step.\"\nLarimer County Commissioner Tom Donnelly could not be reached for comment before deadline, but Commissioner Steve Johnson wrote in an email to the Trail-Gazette that he was not in a position to comment, and the current Board will have to evaluate the reimbursement requests and determine their propriety and take appropriate action.\nThe Trail-Gazette reached out to Fogarty by both phone and email and former Board chair Steve Kruger by both phone and email with no responses before print time.",

        "raw_content": "Windows 7 - Using Windows Easy Transfer\nWindows Easy Transfer provides an easy and convenient way of transferring settings and files from one Windows installation to another. It allows you to save things such as user accounts including documents and other files, Internet bookmarks and various other settings including desktop customizations and more. You can also choose from a variety of methods for transferring the files. Windows Easy Transfer takes away the time-consuming task of manually moving all of your data and settings. The only limitation is that Windows Easy Transfer is unable to transfer files and settings from a 64-bit Windows installation to a 32-bit one, although it can work the other way round. Windows Easy Transfer is also available for Windows XP and Windows Vista. For the purpose of this guide, we'll be using the Windows Easy Transfer feature included in Windows 7.\nEnsure that you are logged in to an administrator account before continuing. Windows Easy Transfer cannot be used on a standard account. Open the start menu and navigate to All Programs > Accessories > System Tools and open Windows Easy Transfer. Click \"Next\" to continue.\nChoose the method that you wish to use to transfer your files and settings. The easiest method is often to use an Easy Transfer cable to connect the two computers. This is a special USB cable. Alternatively, you can transfer data over your network. This is often slower, but provides a convenient option for those who are transferring files between two computers located on the same network or situations where there is no USB Easy Transfer cable available. The final option allows you to copy all of the data to an external drive or flash media. This is most suitable if you're upgrading your computer to Windows 7 which requires wiping the primary hard disk.\nWhichever option you choose, Windows Easy transfer will guide you through the process, telling you which actions to take with which computer. The entire process can take a few hours, especially if you have a large number of files to transfer. The speed also depends on the method you use and the speed of the connected computers itself.",

For the 3 home meets, we expect parents to provide a contribution to refreshments to be sold, and to volunteer as timers, marshals, catering assistance, etc. in order to make the meets run smoothly.\nWe advise primary age swimmers to swim twice a week, and those in secondary to train three times a week.\nYou can train or take lessons or do training with any of the European Schools\u2019 periscolaire activities, for example CESAME. You can also train with a local swimming club.\nDo I need particular language skills?\nEither French or English is enough to get by. Most coaching for our team is done in French, but the working language for officials during competitions is English. Generally, all the older swimmers and adults involved have sufficient French & English to make sure the younger swimmers are not left out.\nWho runs the ESB Swimming Team?\nThe ESB Swimming Team is entirely run by volunteer parents and the coaches. Every year the Parents\u2019 General Assembly elects the members of the Swim Team Committee, which ensures the essential tasks of the Team: organization of meets, recruitment, liaison with the other Teams within the EFSL, outreach, catering at our home meets. Statistics, maintaining of the website and alike.\nHow is the ESB Swimming Team financed?\nThe ESB is entirely financed through the swimmers\u2019 fees. Some costs are shared with Cesame. Accounts of the Team will be published in this website after approval of the General Assembly.\nSo, you provide swimming training lessons, don\u2019t you?\nNo, the ESB does not organize training lessons; regular training at the competition level is however needed in order to be members of the Team (see above).\nWhat Championship does the ESB Swimming Team participate in?\nWe participate in the championship of the EFSL, the European Forces Swim League; the EFSL is formed by swimming teams of the US Forces, Nato and European Union. They include young swimmers of the primary and secondary cycles of education. The EFSL is not competitive with, nor to draw participants away from, local competitive swim programmes such as national or regional championships. Each team of the EFSL has a different origin and a different number of competitive swimmers. However, all have the common interests of providing a program of competitive swimming on the local level and a healthy environment in which children can grow emotionally and physically. Presently there are 18 swimming teams affiliated to the EFSL, representing more than 1,000 swimmers throughout Europe. These Teams are located in Belgium, Germany, Italy, Portugal, Spain, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom.\nWhat are the qualification times for the final?\nTo find out how close you are to qualifying for the finals, check the latest standings on the EFSL Site: http://www.swimefsl.com/\nFor more Information of the Divisionals and Finals please consult these additional FAQ.",

        "raw_content": "An Answer! Finally!\nWow, 46 comments on my last post!! I guess there are more of us diehards out there reading blogs than I thought! Thanks for all the GREAT feedback. I am so happy for the reassurance not only to myself but to the rest of you guys, that we are not alone! The whole world is not stuffing themselves with fudge at this very moment. Thank goodness!\nI woke up this morning... SICK AGAIN!! I could not believe it. Sore throat, severe headache, felt like a truck hit me. I got sick on December 6th, so I have been basically nonstop sick for over 3 weeks now. NOT good. I had a day here and there when I thought I was \"better\" but then I'd be sick again the next day. So finally, this morning I dragged myself out of bed and headed straight to the Urgent Care Clinic.\nIt's a good thing I did, because I have a pretty severe sinus infection. No wonder I felt so awful! Sinus infections are just exhausting and miserable. I know, because back when I weighed 278 pounds, I had constant, recurrent sinus infections that just would not go away. I was always on antibiotics. It was horrid. But I guess I forgot about that, because ever since I started losing weight and eating healthy in August 2007, I do not recall having even ONE sinus infection. But boy have I got one now! Three weeks of infection... I have really felt bad. But now the good doctor has me on a strong antibiotic, 3 times a day for 15 days, as well as some medicine for congestion. I still feel wiped out today, but very optimistic that FINALLY I will be getting well!\nAlso, I am once again at the beginning of my cycle, which means it should be much easier for me to eat healthy and not obsess about food over the next two weeks. I am glad for that.\nMy father passed away 20 years ago this week. It pains me a great deal to realize that he has now been gone from my life for longer than he was in it. Oh, what I wouldn't give to have him back for just one day! How I wish he had gotten to meet my children... ANY of them. He would've been a wonderful grandfather. He would've been so proud. I miss him so much. In his memory I'd appreciate it if you'd take a minute and read my post last year about my Dad. And then, if your father is still living, please call him, or hug him, or write him a note and tell him you love him, because you only get one Dad and they don't last forever. You just never know. Treasure your dad for me, would you? And maybe even leave me a comment telling me one thing your Dad did for you that you will never forget.\nThanks for hanging in there with me :)\nThanks for always providing thought-provoking messages of hope! :) My dad brought me flowers today because he was proud of how I did on a test and it made my day! :) Happy New Year and thanks for a great blog.\nJust read your post about your dad. It made me cry! How blessed you are to have had such a loving father.\nMy bio dad disappeared from my life when I was very young. My \"adopted\" dad, mom's 2nd husband, while we are not what I would call \"close\" ie: I don't call him daddy..he is a man I deeply respect. I do not know any man out there with more honesty or integrity than him. He also treats my mother like pure gold. What has my \"dad\" done for me? Too much to write here..but he insisted my daughter and I live with he and mom when I was young and had gotten pregnant. He took care of us and gave us a wonderful home when he could have told me to fend for myself.\nIt's hard for me to express my feelings to him, but your post has really given me something to think about. He isn't in the best health now and doesn't take great care of himself. Life is short. I will be sure to let him know how much I appreciate him!\nHope you are feeling better real soon!\nSo sorry your sick. Sinus infections are horrible so it's a really good thing you went to the doctor.\nThe post about your father. I remember reading it when you originally posted it. I just read it again.\nI scrolled down and read my comment. I wrote...\"I'm sitting here crying\"...well, here it is a year later, just read the post again and guess what...I'm sitting here crying.\nSuch a tragic loss, but at least you have wonderful memories of him. What an incredible father he was to you...you were and are truly blessed.\nI went back and read your dad post again and again it made me cry. My dad is the best. He taught me that you can call the bank and ask for overdraft fees back and they will give them to you. He taught me to look at my own actions when I'm having a problem to decide what I might be doing to contribute to it. He coached every team I ever played on. Last week was my first christmas ever away from him (had to go to the fiances place) and he drove my mom and my brother down to my house the week before so we could have a christmas together. Then he said I was the best cook in the world and my present was the best one ever. I will call him today. Thanks Lyn and I'm so sorry you can't call yours\nI would be lost without my father. We talk every morning on the phone for about 30 minutes. I know one day the conversations will stop, so each conversation is savored. I save the advice he gives me and the stories he tells me and our conversations are never boring. My Daddy is 84 and he gets up each morning waiting for my phone call. He was 40 when I was born, I'm a middle child. My other two siblings are Mama's babies, and I am my Fathers. Reading about you missing your father, it hurts me because I still have mine and I would love to share him with you. I'm blessed to have him for as long as I have, and I don't know if I will ever be the same without him. He's told me to be happy when he's gone and not to cry, but I don't know if that's possible, but I will try because he asked me to. I know that once he is gone, I will want to have one more day with him, heck one more hour, I would take 15 minutes if I could get it. I'm glad that you had a good Daddy, they are one of the best treasures in life.\nFeel better soon, Lyn.\nThis is a favorite memory of my dad - maybe not the most significant but definitely fun and totally shows what kind of guy he is. I'm an only child too, and I was a big tomboy, so dad didn't have to do a lot of \"girly girl\" stuff. However, I was a kid when crimping your hair was in style, and I remember my dad sitting with me in the bathroom crimping my hair before school when I was in the 3rd grade. He is still that awesome. :)\nNow you can get yourself better. Yippeee!\nI loved your post last year about your dad, your love for him was so bright.\nI didn't have the best childhood with my father but through the years I've still always tried to maintain a relationship with him. I saw him on Saturday for the first time in 30 month. I did give him a big hug and tell him I loved him and he did the same. It does make you think that they won't always be there and we should forgive for any past mistakes and just love them for who they are today. Thanks for reminding me.\nSinus infections are the worst - glad you are finally getting taken care of and hopefully will be on the mend soon!\nMy dad passed away 4 1/2 years ago, and there is always a hole in our hearts at every family event because he will always be missing. Now it is just my 2 sisters and my mom and me when we are together and our families. It's tough.\nMy dad taught me that you can overcome adversity in your life. His father died when he was 12, he was in Germany during WWII but had a brother die in Vietnam. He told me when he was dying that he always asked God if he could just live to see his children grow up. But then he wanted to see his grandchildren grow up! I told him that you can't have everything! :) He got his real wish and didn't die until all his girls were grown up. It's sad, but I know he is in a much better place and can't wait to join him some day.\nThe only thing I would add is that if your parent(s) are older, appreciate that. Not all of us get to see our parents get old- my dad was 57 when he passed away. So appreciate all the time you've been given with them!\nThanks for the reminder about appreciating our loved ones. I'm going to take your advice and tell my dad how much I appreciate him.\nSinus infections are HORRIBLE. My husband and oldest DH are very susceptible to them and they suffer so much. They've discovered something this last year called a Netti Pot that has made a huge difference for them. I hope you get better soon!\nThanks for the lovely post about your dad. I can't call mine either. He passed 29 years ago on New Years Eve and was way too young. His health fell apart after my brother who had cerebral palsy died at age 19. My dad just quit taking care of himself after making my brother his priority. He made his wheelchair (as there was no such thing as the kinds they have today, we made his diapers (no disposables back then), grinded all his food (nothing that you could buy for someone who coked all the time, made crib sides for his twin bed because he was too long for a crib. The list goes on and on. He was a great man. I wish I could talk to him one more time, too. Bless you Lyn and please keep writing. I'm glad you went to the doctor! My girlfriend swears by her Neti Pot.\nThe Merry said...\nI'm sorry you're not feeling well, but what a great post!\nMy father really didn't want to leave us -- the doctors were amazed at how long he held on. Those last few months, if I left the house to go run errands or meet up with friends, he would call me over and tell me that he loved me. He wasn't sure if he was still going to be there when I got back, and he wanted that to make sure that was the last thing he said to me.\nThank you for bringing that memory back to me!\nI have to admit to problems with sinus infections too, but now I used a neti pot and I feel healthier than I have in my entire life--like I have no allergies at all. It's changed my life.\nI can relate to the loss of a father. I was 16 when I lost mine. I sometimes \"check in\" with him and just sit and tell him about my life since he passed and about my son. He would have adored my son. I think sometimes when I'm talking to my son and being goofy (my father had a fantastic sense of humor) that in a way, I'm representing my dad by filling in his role as the humorist. Parents don't realize how much they impart in you until you go and raise your own kids and you find yourself doing what they did and passing on the qualities. I bet you pass on his qualities all the time.\nSinus infections are nasty!!\nGet better soon Lyn.\nI must say i also cried reading the story about your dad. It brought up a lot of emotions since i've never known my dad.\nI know I have not posted a lot lately - but I check your blog every day and I still LOVE EVERY POST! You are wonderful and amazing and I HOPE to be a wonderful mom like you someday. You are doing AWESOME. I am glad you had a great Christmas and I hope you have a wonderful and healthy new year!\nWhen I walk at a good pace outside all the goop in my nose starts to clear and I noticed last infection that it didn't last very long. Maybe that will help you.\nOh, the part about your dad almost made me cry. :(\nI love my dad dearly. I think he's an amazing man, and I always sad I wished I could find a man who has all the qualities he does. But I think he's very rare, so I'm simply blessed to have him as my father. I can't think of a specific thing he's done for me right now, but both him and my mom have always been there for me in my life, and for that I' am so grateful.\nI'm reposting my comment because I wanted to add that I decided to go read the post about your dad and that really did make me cry. It was so touching. You have such a way with words and being able to convey your emotions.\nGood to hear you are on your way to getting better.\nI saw my father last week. We went to a restaurant in honour of his b-day. He invited all his daughters and their boyfriends. It was such a great evening! We don't speak much and there's a lot of history for me to get through since my mother died 7 years ago. I love my father to bits, but there are some issues.\nI do totally understand what you are saying, though, because of my mother dying so young. She has missed and will miss all the most important 'happenings' in my adult life. No one can replace her. It's hard sometimes.\nGood luck this week.\nWhen I got pregnant with an unwanted child at the age of 18, my mom didn't speak to me for 8 months (and I lived with my parents). However, my Dad told me that no matter how I decided to handle my \"situation\", he loved me and would support me, no matter what.\nvery smart that you are doing 15 days. I wonder how long you have actually had it - because they have usually been around for a while before acute symptoms.\ndo you use saline or nettie pot? drink as much water as you can and avoid sodium/processed as much as possible so you 'flush' and do not 'hold'\nMy Daddy is my hero and my best friend. From the time I was born, he has made it a priority to spend time with me - whether that was taking me out for a \"Daddy/Daughter\" breakfast or playing tea party with me. He calls me daily just to check in. There are not enough words to describe what my Daddy means to me.\nI have so loved reading about your Dads! Thank you for sharing those memories and feelings with me. It makes me smile :)\nSeveral of you mentioned a Neti pot. I do have one and use it occasionally for allergies or if I feel a cold coming on. The funny thing to me now is, about a week and a half ago I tried to use it and could not. There was some kind of blockage and no water would run through. Guess that should have been my cue??\naimeeinak said...\nHi Lyn, I'm a newbie to your blog and am enjoying it. Reading about your Dad in your post from last year was really neat, you're a lucky girl to have had such a wonderful father.\nIt was also hard for me to read because it was exactly a year ago today that my Dad passed away, it's been a hard day for me, but reading your post reminded me of all the good memories I have of him. Dancing in the aisles of the grocery store, for example. :-) Thank you for sharing, and for helping me remember how lucky I am to have had him as long as I did.",

        "title": "Golden State Warriors hope to land five stars on Team USA roster",
        "raw_content": "Warriors hope to land five stars on Team USA\nKlay Thompson: Five Warriors on Team USA would be 'awesome'\nIs a three-peat inevitable for the Warriors? (1:35)\nWith the Western Conference adding LeBron James and Carmelo Anthony, is a Golden State championship less likely? (1:35)\nSTANFORD, Calif. -- Not only do the Golden State Warriors have a chance to win a third straight NBA championship this season, they also can become the first NBA franchise to land five players on Team USA.\nOn Thursday, Warriors coach Steve Kerr was named an assistant on Gregg Popovich's Team USA staff for this summer's Basketball World Cup in China and the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo. In the wake of that news, 2016 gold medalist Klay Thompson said the possibility of representing his country alongside Golden State teammates Stephen Curry, Kevin Durant, Draymond Green and DeMarcus Cousins would be special.\nKerr named assistant to Popovich on Team USA\nSteve Kerr was named an assistant coach under Gregg Popovich on Team USA.\nLAL-GSW ESPN's most-watched preseason game\nLeBron James' first game against the Warriors as a Laker drew nearly 2 million viewers, making it ESPN's most-watched preseason game ever.\nWarriors coach Steve Kerr said Draymond Green is \"doing better\" and is expected to play in Friday's preseason finale against the Lakers.\n\"That would be awesome,\" Thompson told ESPN. \"I don't know if that's ever happened in the history of the NBA, so that would be awesome. It gets me excited just thinking about it.\"\nThe possibility gained steam after USA Basketball announced that Kerr would be on Popovich's staff, along with Indiana Pacers coach Nate McMillan and Villanova coach Jay Wright. USA Basketball managing director Jerry Colangelo says all five Warriors players have made known their interest in playing and will be considered as Team USA starts to take shape over the next few months.\n\"The first thing we had to determine, and we think we have a pretty good feel for this, is who's really committed,\" Colangelo said during a conference call. \"Who's really interested in moving forward with us. There are a lot of candidates on the Warriors who have indicated they wish to be part of it. ... Basically we have to monitor what's happening during the course of the regular season in the NBA as it relates to injuries, as it relates to other circumstances that come up before we get down to really inviting the number of individuals that we plan to, to come to our camp next summer in preparation for the World Cup.\"\nColangelo noted that Kerr wasn't chosen so that it would help get players such as Curry and Durant to sign up for another run with USA Basketball -- but the relationships the coach has formed with his players can't hurt.\nDurant won gold medals for Team USA in 2012 and 2016, and Green and Cousins each won one in 2016 as well. Warriors reserve Andre Iguodala won in 2012. Curry, who has yet to participate in an Olympics, helped Team USA win gold in the 2010 World Championships and the 2014 World Cup.\n\"I hadn't thought about it, to be honest,\" Curry said of the possibility of having five Warriors playing for Team USA. \"I'm worried about these nine months that we got till June. Obviously, if that's the way it shapes out, that would be amazing. ... USAB's done a great job of putting together the right talent. Obviously there's a lot to pick from. [USAB has] the right leadership with [Mike Krzyzewski] and his staff and now Coach Popovich and his staff, so that's why I've been happy to be a part of that in the World Championship, World Cup situations and hopefully the Olympics in two years. We'll see what happens.\"\nThere's also no guarantee all five players will be with Golden State when Team USA announces its final roster ahead of the World Cup, which starts in late August. Cousins signed a one-year deal with the team, and Thompson and Durant could leave via free agency.\nFor his part, Thompson is fully committed to trying to win another gold medal in the 2020 Games.\n\"I would love to,\" he said. \"I had such a great time playing for Team USA. I'm undefeated in my Team USA career. I would love to go back.\"\nKerr, who was a part of the 1986 Team USA squad that won the World Championships in Madrid, is excited about his upcoming Olympic experience. He tried out for the 1988 team that went to Seoul but did not make the final cut.\n\"I'm really, really excited,\" Kerr said after Thursday's practice. \"Especially because it's Pop. But obviously it's an honor no matter who's coaching to represent your country. To be on the staff of the national team is a huge honor. I get the best of both worlds. I get to be on the staff and I get to work with Pop. So I'm really excited about that.\"\nAs for the possibility of having five of his players on Team USA at the same time, Kerr wouldn't let his mind wander that far yet.\n\"We don't know what the team's going to look like exactly,\" Kerr said. \"But I'm hoping that happens. We'll see -- I'm a tough critic. We'll see if they make the team or not.\"\nKerr spoke with a bit of a smile about that last part, the same kind of sense of humor Curry used when asked about Kerr's presence on the new Team USA staff.\n\"That decision really ruined my chances of playing,\" Curry said sarcastically. \"I don't want to see Coach [Kerr] more than I have to. Coach Popovich should have known that before he hired Steve that nobody wants to play for Steve. It's an unfortunate situation.\"\nFor Thompson, the idea of being with Kerr during an Olympic cycle sounded great.\n\"I still got to make the team,\" Thompson said. \"But that would be phenomenal. That would be great. That would be awesome. That would be pretty sweet.\"\nAs far as LeBron James' potential involvement is concerned, Colangelo indicated that James still has an interest in returning to play for Team USA. James played in the 2004, 2008 and 2012 Games and hasn't shut the door on one more run with the national team.\n\"LeBron, he did the workout for the day and a half that we worked out last summer,\" Colangelo said. \"Which was more of a get-together, just to get a read on players who -- who was in, who was thinking maybe, maybe not [playing]. LeBron did show; to me, that's an indication he has interest in playing.\n\"But the season, the season takes its toll on players. And as players age, it takes a little bit more toll. So we monitor, we'll stay in touch. We'll see how things [come together], and each player's going to make their own individual decisions on whether or not they want to commit and participate.\"",

Getty Images\nEngland has surprisingly ruled the Commonwealth Games sprint relays, with Jamaica's failure to grab gold prompting Usain Bolt to question his retirement.\nEngland collected gold in the men's and women's 4x100m relays on Saturday, the penultimate day of competition at the Gold Coast Games.\nJamaica's men's relay team finished third; their countrywomen second - the traditional sprint superpowers ended the Games without a victory in the six sprint finals on the Gold Coast.\nAfter watching Jamaica's fall from grace, Bolt queried his decision to give athletics away.\n\"Did I retire too soon? Hmmm,\" Bolt tweeted.\n\"Watching the relay just now made me ask myself a few questions.\"\nIn the men's 4x100m relay, Englishman Harry Aikines-Aryeetey held off South Africa's 100m Commonwealth champ Akani Simbine and Jamaica's Yohan Blake to secure the gold.\n\"I ran like a rabbit,\" Aikines-Aryeetey said.\n\"I knew I had the second fastest man of all time behind me, Yohan Blake, and the 100m Commonwealth champion behind me.\n\"I stayed focused and aimed for the line.\"\nJamaica's 4x400m women's relay team made some amends with victory ahead of Nigeria and Botswana, with Botswana winning gold in the men's 4x400m.\nThe relays came after Kenya's 1500m world champion Elijah Manangoi added a Commonwealth Games gold medal to his collection on Saturday.\nManangoi again pipped his countryman, silver medallist Timothy Cheruiyot, in a repeat of last year's world title result.\n\"A (gold) medal is so nice, so sweet,\" Manangoi said.\nKenya also achieved a gold-silver double in the women's 5000m with Hellen Obiri finishing ahead of Margaret Chelimo Kipkemboi.\n\"It's fantastic for us,\" Obiri said.\n\"We have done our best and we won gold in the (men's) 1500m as well.\"",

        "raw_content": "Bowlers in baggy pants will bat for women's rights\n4894dAFP\nThe India under-21 women's team tour to Pakistan is seen as a big step forward for women's rights in the largely conservative Islamic republic. The tour which begins next week is also considered a boost for women's cricket in general on the subcontinent, where the game has an almost universal passion. India's under-21 team is the first-ever Indian women's team of any sport to cross the border.\n\"In an era when tolerance and equality are promoted in all sports, cricket gives us girls a way to live freely,\" said Armana Khan, a wicket-keeper batsman from Chaghi, a town in the conservative southwestern province of Baluchistan.\nKanta Jalil, 24, a right-arm medium fast bowler from Abbotabad, in North West Frontier Province, said: \"I never faced resistance at home because I used to play along with my father and brothers, but I never thought I'd come this far.\"\nIn the remote corners of Pakistan where Kanta and Armana grew up, girls were rarely allowed to go out in public, let alone to wield a cricket bat and throw a ball. Yet the pair defied local customs and religion and are part of Pakistan's new women's national cricket team.\nOnly recently did the hard-line Islamic government in the North West Frontier Province, which borders Afghanistan, lift a ban on male sports coaches training women.\nHowever, Pakistan's female cricketers still face the threat of protests or worse from religious zealots. In April, a mixed marathon race in Lahore met with serious opposition leaving a number of people injured when hardliners clashed with police. Cricketing authorities have learnt from that incident and have taken steps to prevent trouble.\n\"We follow a strict dress code of shalwar (baggy trousers) and long shirts, and male spectators are not allowed to watch our matches, so I don't see there should be any problems,\" said Shamsa Hashmi, the secretary of the Pakistan Cricket Board's (PCB) women's wing and captain of the Pakistan team.\nOpening batswoman Sana Javed, who hails from a small town on the plains of Punjab province, said the baggy clothes were no hindrance. \"We are used to them now and can run as fast anyone,\" said Sana, whose club cricketer father taught her to bat.\nThe first moves to introduce cricket to Pakistani women were made by sisters Shaiza and Sharmeen Khan in 1996, but they came at the cost of death threats and court cases. The siblings were denied permission to play against India by then-prime minister Nawaz Sharif's government in 1997, which ruled that women were forbidden from playing any sports in public. It was only when the PCB took charge of women's cricket last year that the female game here picked up.\n\"Women's cricket has come a long way. We owe this progress to the PCB and the Pakistan government,\" said Shahnaz Sohail, the coach of Pakistan women's team, who added that her girls were overjoyed about playing India. And the anticipation is shared by their opponents. \"Our girls are really excited about the tour,\" said Anjali Pendharkar, the manager of Indian team. She added, \"There is a lot of curiosity regarding Pakistan and the culture there. They are keen to see how things are in their neighbouring country.\"\nPakistan and India have revived a host of fixtures at all levels in the past two years after sporting links were cut in 2002 because of tensions between their governments, leading to a growing sense of rapprochement.",

We speak of health of mind and body as we are increasingly conscious of the mental health challenges we face as a community. Amidst the unrelenting busyness and worry of our days, the merits of pausing in silence are becoming clearer. Silence in mindfulness and listening to loud music while exercising are two interesting parallel experiences in our society. There\u2019s a key question here about whether in our moments of silence or music listening we are seeking to forget our day or rest in gratitude for it.

She turned and looked at me: 'Don't tell me it's all-right. It's not all-right'. It was for all the wrongs, all the anguish, the suffering, the pain, the separation from her family, land, culture, her children. I couldn't leave her. I called an ambulance. As she was carted out, she looked up from the stretcher: 'You betrayed me.'\nAdvancing human rights in the market\n'The market for disability services will need to be underpinned with a strong and robust internal risk management framework. There will be an increasing number of for-profit operators in the sector. Hopefully the not-for-profit operators will make the necessary adaptations competing in the market and providing the ethos for the market to deliver services in a dignified, fair and transparent manner.' Frank Brennan's Leading the Way Seminar for the National Disability Service\nPassion has a place in border protection's age of reason\nIn the Australian migration debate, 'passion' is construed as opposed to 'reason'. But the former Archbishop of Canterbury Rowan Williams has said that 'passion' in its classical (ancient or biblical) sense, is not opposed to reason (being attuned to the world), but rather to 'peace' or 'harmony'. Therefore 'passionate' language \u2014 alongside practical proposals \u2014 can unsettle uncritical pictures of the issue.\nBest of 2013: Advice for the Pope on reforming the Church\nI wish he would invite me to be his temporary consultant, to offer him advice for his next 500 days. I'd begin by proposing a substantial Vatican-led inquiry, into why the Church has been so troubled by sexual abuse across various countries.

It could be the bugs survive better in colder and wetter conditions or it might be that people wash their hands less.\"\nDr Curtis explained that they were using E. coli as a marker for the presence of faecal matter. She said: \"Campylobacter and Salmonella bacteria are much more likely to cause a gastric infection and could easily be passed on through faecal contamination.\" Most strains of E. coli found on the hands and phones are not likely to cause major ill-health",

(NYSE: UTX), will power the world's largest fuel cell installation to be built in Connecticut, IFC announced today.\nThe PC25 units, which each produce 200 kilowatts of electricity and 900,000 Btus of heat, will provide primary power to the Connecticut Juvenile Training School in Middletown, Conn. The heat produced by the fuel cells will be used for heating and cooling the facility.\n\"It was only less than a year ago that we dedicated a five-PC25 installation at a postal facility in Anchorage, Alaska,\" said IFC President William Miller. \"This larger, 1.2 megawatt project will further showcase the PC25 power plant's capabilities to meet the demand for clean, reliable and efficient energy and IFC's leadership in the fuel cell industry.\"\nIFC is working with Select Energy, the competitive energy marketing and services subsidiary of Northeast Utilities, (NYSE: NU) and NU affiliate subsidiaries Select-HEC Inc. and Northeast Generation Services Company (NGS) on the project for the Connecticut Department of Public Works.\n\"IFC's position as the leader in the fuel cell industry and the PC25 power plant's proven track record made IFC the logical choice as a partner for this innovative effort to meet our customer's needs,\" said Michael Cassella, Select Energy's director of new business and large project development.\nThe PC25 fuel cells will be a central part of the entire power installation that also includes generators and the electric grid to ensure an extremely high level of reliability.\nA fuel cell is an electrochemical device that combines hydrogen, or hydrogen-rich fuel, and oxygen to produce electricity, heat and water. Fuel cells operate without combustion, making them almost pollution free. While a traditional generating system produces as much as 25 pounds of pollutants to generate 1,000 kilowatt-hours of electricity, the PC25 power plant using natural gas as a fuel, produces less than an ounce.\nIFC has manufactured the PC25 power plant since 1991 and delivered 220 units to customers in 15 countries on four continents. Those power plants have together accumulated some 4 million hours of operation. Use of these power plants has already reduced 600 million pounds of CO2 emissions and 11 million pounds of NOx and SOx compared with typical US combustion-based power plants. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency recognized IFC last year with a Climate Protection Award as a result of these accomplishments\nInternational Fuel Cells is the world leader in fuel cell production and development for commercial, transportation, residential and space applications. IFC is the sole supplier of fuel cells for U.S. space missions.\nSOURCE International Fuel Cells",

On Tuesday, August 31, the day of the \"Saint Marone student festival\", a Eucharistic liturgy was held at the cave-monastery, presided over by Hanna Rahm\u00e9 OLM, the Maronite Bishop of Baalbek-Deir el Ahmar. Some politicians and representatives of the Lebanese Maronite Order also took part in the Mass.\nLocated in the north-east of Lebanon, not far from the border with Syria and the sources of the Oronte river, the cave monastery is part of the treasure of memories and places related to the Christian adventure of Saint Marone, who lived between the 4th and 5th centuries and considered the father of the monastic-spiritual congregation that gave rise to the formation of the Maronite Church. Already in the fifth century those same caves were occupied by the first students of Saint Marone. The re-opening of the place to liturgy and devotion is lived by many Christians with gratitude. The news of a place so dear to Christian memory is a joy. \"We managed to get this convent back - said Bishop Hanna during the homily - and now we want to share it as a sacred place, with our Christian and Muslim brothers. Perhaps, the first Maronite Patriarch was elected here. And whoever comes here feels the presence of God\". The Bishop of Baalbek - local sources told Fides - has also announced that soon at least one mass will be celebrated in the cave monastery every day.\nThe new possibility of access to the place marks the end of a long time of abandonment. After the monks had left, in the Ottoman era, it had been exposed for centuries to oblivion and degradation caused by atmospheric agents. Then, starting from the 1930s, it had become the subject of contention between the Maronite diocese of Baalbek-Deir el Ahmar and some influential local Muslim families, who accused the diocese of having seized the area of the monastery they owned in the moment in which they, in 1923, had been forced to leave the area and move to Syria under the French mandate. Another more recent dispute, was between the diocese of Baalbek-Deir el Ahmar and the Lebanese ministry of water resources and energy, and was resolved when the government and the diocese agreed on the possibility of starting the restructuring of the monastery and re-opening its caves.

Introduced by Rep. Kevin Yoder, the Email Privacy Act brings the Electronic Communications Privacy Act (ECPA) of 1986 into the 21st Century.\nUnder current law, federal agencies can obtain emails and other forms of electronic communication without a warrant from a service provider after 180 days, which violates the rights to privacy and due process protected by the Fourth and Fifth Amendments. The Department of Justice has interpreted that any opened email is subject to the 180-day rule.\nThe Email Privacy Act upgrades ECPA to protect the privacy of Americans by requiring that federal officials seeking access to emails and other forms of electronic communication to acquire a warrant. The bill would also codify and apply nationwide the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals\u2019 June 2010 ruling in United States v. Warshak, in which the court determined that emails are subject to Fourth Amendment protections, meaning that law enforcement is required to obtain a warrant based on probable cause to search them.\nIn the 114th Congress, the Email Privacy Act had more than 300 cosponsors and, in April 2016, unanimously passed the House of Representatives. Unfortunately, the bill was stalled in the Senate, as some Members unwisely sought to weaken its common sense protections. Any attempt to weaken the version of the Email Privacy Act in the 115th Congress should be met with resistance by the House.\nThe Email Privacy Act is a crucial legislative effort years in the making. It enhances the privacy of Americans by getting the government out of their inboxes. I hope that you will contact your representative and ask him or her to support the Email Privacy Act.\nTags email privacy act, H.R. 387, ECPA, Electronics Communication Privacy Act, Kevin Yoder, Fourth Amendment, 115th Congress, Letter of Support\nLoS - Email Privacy Act - H.R. 387.pdf",

        "title": "How Society Views Science is Frequently Determined by How Science Presents Itself | Front Line Genomics",
        "raw_content": "How Society Views Science is Frequently Determined by How Science Presents Itself\nHello everyone. This is David I Smith from the Mayo Clinic. Like most scientists that I know, I have a variety of passions in addition to my love for science (and in my case genomics). I thought that perhaps I could put my passion and many years of reading great science fiction and seeing movies to good use by writing about them.\nScience fiction and its translation into great movies are actually highly related to science. Many of the greatest ideas in science actually come out of the imagination of writers and also by the visualisation of those ideas by movie directors. The original (and by far the best) version of Star Trek with James T Kirk, Spock and Bones inspired a generation of scientists and also gave birth to fantastic ideas that have now become both a part of our culture and also led to technological advances that are now a routine part of our daily lives (just think of the iPhones in your pocket and remember how communication worked in the 1960s).\nI was fortunate enough at the time to be in my young teens when Star Trek first came out (unfortunately that also makes be quite old at this point in time) and there were many positive aspects of that show. The first was the insistence of Gene Roddenberry that there be some scientific plausibility to many of the things that were depicted. The second was the multicultural inclusivity of the show that extended beyond just having a black communications officer to Kirk having sex with attractive aliens (or just about anything attractive that was walking by). The third was the way it celebrated talented and intelligent people putting their minds together to solve problems \u2013 all within a one hour time period.\nAnyhow, I have read a ton of science fiction books over the past 50 years of my life. In addition, I am a monster movie-addict and try to watch as many films as I possibly can. I have very strong opinions about what I think are the best science-fiction writers and even stronger opinions about who I think are the best movie directors and which of their films are the best. Furthermore, I have for a long time watched in dismay as Hollywood tried, but failed, to take some of the best science-fiction stories and turn them into movies. There have been some dramatic success stories, but the sad reality is that most of the time Hollywood has done a terrible job translating great story ideas into fantastic movie experiences.\nOne of the things that I like so much about science fiction is that it unleashes our imagination to wonder what the world is like, and more importantly, what it could be. Furthermore, it is from the ripe minds of science fiction writers that so many of the ideas that will become scientific experiments come from. The Editors of Nature recognised this; and their inclusion of a one-page science fiction short story at the end of every Nature issue demonstrates that they too realise the important connection between science fiction and the future of science.\nI, therefore, thought it would be fun (and perhaps would be a good outlet for some of my excess energy) if I started to write about some of the science fiction that I\u2019ve read that has had the greatest impression on me as a person and a scientist. Furthermore, I thought I\u2019d do the same with some of the movies that I\u2019ve seen.\nA sketch of a statuette depicting Cthulhu, drawn by his creator, H. P. Lovecraft. Photo: Wikipedia\nPerhaps a good place to start would be for me to let you know what I think are some of the best science-fiction writers that I\u2019ve read. That way you can determine for yourself whether you are likely to agree with me or think I\u2019m completely nuts with absolutely no good taste at all. An important thing to realise is that it is possible to really like the work of a writer, but completely and totally disagree with the personal held views of that writer. An excellent example of this is H.P. Lovecraft, who is thought of as the father of modern horror. His tales of Cthulu, and the Cthulhu mythos, are legendary. However, at the same time he was a rabid anti-Semite whose views were reactionary even for the turn of the 20th century. Even more of a surprise was the fact that despite being a rabid hater of Jews, his wife was actually Jewish. Go figure! If you haven\u2019t read his work or are unaware of the impact that HP has had on science fiction and fantasy look him up! Forget about his personal views; just enjoy what he contributed to literature!\nSo who are the writers that I like the best? I\u2019m a huge fan of Harlan Ellison. He is most well-known for writing the screenplay for the best episode of Start Trek ever (The City at the Edge of Forever), but he also came up with the idea for the Terminator (both of these use the theme of time-travel and the attempt to alter history through time travel). How can anyone who likes science fiction not like Isaac Asimov and perhaps one of the best science fiction trilogies (The Foundation Trilogy)?\nSome of the other writers that I love include Frank Herbert (the Dune Universe), Kurt Vonnegut (tons of great stories), Phillip K Dick (Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep which was turned into the great movie Blade Runner!), Connie Willis (Doomsday Book and Blackout/All Clear are incredible), Nancy Kress (please read Beggars in Spain!), Philip Jose Farmer (who was one of the first people to write about sex with aliens), Joan Vinge (The Snow Queen is an absolute classic), and Vernor Vinge (you have to read A Fire Upon the Deep).\nInterstellar is a lavish space romp which sees Matthew McConaughey jump through a worm hole, navigate space-time and tumble into a black hole in his quest to save humanity / Screenshot from the trailer. Credit: Paramount Pictures\nIn addition to my love of great science fiction, I am also a huge movie nut; I\u2019ve watched at least 5 every week for the past few decades. I have a number of genre spanning directors whom I just love, but my favourite science-fiction movies of all time include ET, The Martian, The Matrix (just the first film in the series), The Terminator, Avatar, 12 Monkeys, The Fifth Element, Blade Runner and Interstellar.\nSo, what I\u2019d like to do in this continuing series is to discuss great books that have shaped who I am and have had a dramatic impact on both the movies and society in general. Then, I want to also discuss incredible science fiction movies that came out of this literature. Finally, I\u2019d like to discuss how poorly Hollywood has mined the great research of science fiction literature when they\u2019ve tried to turn fantastic stories into great visual experiences.\nHow society views science is frequently determined by how science presents itself and a lot of this comes from both science fiction and the movies. Hence, I hope that my lifetime of both reading great science fiction and watching movies will prove useful and interesting to the readers of Front Line Genomics.",

        "raw_content": "Xbox 360 Elite Systems Spotted in the Wild\nWhile running from the rumors is possible for some, photo proof isn\u2019t that easy to run from. Elsewhere on the interweb, someone\u2019s nabbed picture-proof of the wily \u201cElite 360\u2033\u2026\nXbox 360 Elite systems have been caught in the wild on a Chinese production line. Xbox 360 Fanboy has images of racks of black Xbox 360 units taken from a Chinese video game forum.\nThe images not only show the sleek, black exterior of the Xbox 360 Elite, but a close-up image shows the 120GB hard disk drive (HDD) fitted atop the console.\nWell, if you needed any more proof, that was it! Another version of the Xbox 360 will hit the marketplace soon, and I\u2019m a bit crossed as to my opinion about it. Another paragraph in the story covered some of the pros and cons of this move:\nWhile the new black exterior and 120GB HDD may be headliner features of the $479 USD Xbox 360 Elite, the addition of an HDMI port and an HDMI cable are also added bonuses. Two features that are reportedly missing from the Xbox 360 Elite, however, are built-in WiFi and an internal HD DVD drive.\nThat last sentence is a good part of my crossed opinion of the Elite 360. At a price of $479, the system is only $30 (not counting tax) cheaper than the competing PS3\u2019s price. While this normally wouldn\u2019t be a problem because the lower model PS3 doesn\u2019t have WiFi, the PS3 has the added benefit of a Blu-Ray player while the Elite 360 doesn\u2019t have an HD-DVD drive.\nAnother, if not slight, bother about the Elite 360 is the fact that a lot of people delay picking up a PS3 over the 360 based on cost factor alone. Their argument is that they don\u2019t believe gaming should cost $500 and up, so they\u2019ll get the cheaper system because they\u2019ll be playing most of the same games anyway. This Elite 360 effectively bridges the price gap between the cheaper 360 and the PS3 \u2013 making a tough sell for potential buyers.\nRegardless of how it plays out, expect to see newer, upgraded 360s on the marketplace within a couple months.\nDailyTech \u2013 Report: Xbox 360 Elite Systems Spied on Chinese Production Line",

        "raw_content": "Where to see Geisha\nGeisha Pictures\nGeisha - Geisha information, Geisha pictures, where to see Geisha, Geisha and prostitution and Maiko - trainee Geisha.\nGeisha (\u82b8\u8005 \"person of the arts\") are traditional Japanese artist-entertainers. The word Geiko is also used to describe such persons. Geisha were very common in the 18th and 19th centuries, and are still in existence today, although their numbers are dwindling. \"Geisha,\" pronounced /\u02c8ge\u026a \u0283a/ (\"gay-sha\") is the most familiar term to English speakers, and the most commonly used within Japan as well, but in the Kansai region the terms geigi and, for apprentice geisha, \"Maiko\" have also been used since the Meiji Restoration. The term maiko is only used in Kyoto districts. The English pronunciation \u02c8gi \u0283a (\"gee-sha\") or the phrase \"geisha girl,\" common during the American occupation of Japan, carry connotations of prostitution, as some young women, desperate for money and calling themselves \"geisha,\" sold themselves to American troops.\nTrainee Geisha (Maiko) Kyoto Japan\nThe geisha tradition evolved from the taikomochi or h\u014dkan, similar to court jesters. The first geisha were all male; as women began to take the role they were known as onna geisha (\u5973\u82b8\u8005), or \"woman artist (female form).\" Geisha today are exclusively female, aside from the Taikomochi. Taikomochi are exceedingly rare. Only three are currently registered in Japan. They tend to be far more bawdy than geisha. Other public figures who contributed to the creation of the modern geisha were Oiran, or courtesans, and Odoriko, dancing girls. The Odoriko in particular influenced geisha to include dance as part of their artistic repertoire.\nA Maiko going to work in Gion Kyoto.\nGeisha were traditionally trained from young childhood. Geisha houses often bought young girls from poor families, and took responsibility for raising and training them. During their childhood, apprentice geisha worked first as maids, then as assistants to the house's senior geisha as part of their training and to contribute to the costs of their upkeep and education. This long-held tradition of training still exists in Japan, where a student lives at the home of a master of some art, starting out doing general housework and observing and assisting the master, and eventually moving up to become a master in her own right (see also irezumi). This training often lasts for many years.\nThe course of study traditionally starts from a young age and encompasses a wide variety of arts, including Japanese musical instruments (particularly the shamisen) and traditional forms of singing, traditional dance, tea ceremony, flower arranging (ikebana), poetry and literature. By watching and assisting senior geisha, they became skilled in the complex traditions surrounding selecting, matching, and wearing precious kimono, and in various games and the art of conversation, and also in dealing with clients.\nOnce a woman became an apprentice geisha (a maiko) she would begin to accompany senior geisha to the tea houses, parties and banquets that constitute a geisha's work environment. To some extent, this traditional method of training persists, though it is of necessity foreshortened. Modern geisha are no longer bought by or brought into geisha houses as children. Becoming a geisha is now entirely voluntary. Most geisha now begin their training in their late teens.\nAre Geisha Prostitutes?\nStrictly speaking, geisha are not prostitutes. Because they entertain men behind closed doors in an exclusive manner, there has been much speculation about the underpinnings of their profession. The confusion that surrounds this issue has been complicated by Japanese prostitutes who wish to co-opt the prestige of the geisha image, and by inaccurate depictions of geisha in Western popular culture. Although a geisha may choose to engage in sexual relations with one of her patrons.\nThe first geisha was indeed a courtesan named Kako. Over time, she discovered that she had no need to engage in the red-light district. Kako was directly or indirectly to heir to many schools of Japanese art. She called herself a geisha (\"arts-person\") and confined herself to giving artistic performances.\nOccasionally, a geisha may choose to take a danna (an old fashioned word for husband), which is typically a wealthy man who has the means to support a geisha mistress. Although a geisha may fall in love with her danna, the affair is customarily contingent upon the danna's ability to financially support the geisha's lifestyle. The traditional conventions and values within such a relationship are very intricate and not well understood, even by many Japanese. Because of this, the true intimate role of the geisha remains the object of much speculation, and often misinterpretation, in Japan as well as abroad.",

        "raw_content": "Stand-alone fountains are great for anyone looking for affordability and adaptability. The plumbing, pump, and other components come along with the fountain. A second meaning of \u201cself-contained\u201d is a fountain which includes its own a water source.\nSelf-contained fountains are quick to install making them well suited for anyone needing a patio fountain. They are also not difficult to move from place to place.\nThe spot you want to put your fountain will need to be even, so your landscaper will need to first determine if this is the case. Do not worry if the land is not even, your landscaper can easily even it out. Your water feature is now set for placement and the addition of water. Last but not least, connect it to a solar panel, a wall socket, or batteries, and it will be good to go.\nThe best choice for anyone who wants mobility and does not want to use external plumbing or water source is a self-contained fountain. Although a fountain can be a focal point anywhere in a garden, many people put them in the center. You purchase them in myriad differing materials such as cast stone, metal, ceramic, and fiberglass.\nA good number of sculptors were remunerated by the temples to enhance the intricate columns and archways with renderings of the gods right up until the time period came to a close and many Greeks began to think of their religion as superstitious rather than sacred, when it became more common for sculptors to portray everyday people as well. Sometimes, a representation of affluent families' ancestors would be commissioned to be laid within huge familial tombs, and portraiture, which would be copied by the Romans upon their conquering of Greek civilization, also became commonplace. A point of aesthetic progression, the use of sculpture and alternate art forms transformed through the Greek Classical period, so it is inaccurate to suggest that the arts provided only one function. Whether to fulfill a visual yearning or to celebrate the figures of religion, Greek sculpture was actually an inventive approach in the ancient world, which could be what draws our focus today.\nFrom Where Did Fountains Come From?\nFrom the onset, outdoor fountains were soley meant to serve as functional elements. Water fountains were linked to a spring or aqueduct to supply potable water as well as bathing water for cities, townships and villages. Up to the late 19th century, water fountains had to be near an aqueduct or reservoir and higher than the fountain so that gravity could make the water move down or shoot high into the air. Artists thought of fountains as wonderful additions to a living space, however, the fountains also served to provide clean water and honor the designer responsible for creating it. The main components used by the Romans to create their fountains were bronze or stone masks, mostly illustrating animals or heroes. Throughout the Middle Ages, Muslim and Moorish garden planners incorporated fountains to create mini depictions of the gardens of paradise. Fountains enjoyed a considerable role in the Gardens of Versailles, all part of French King Louis XIV\u2019s desire to exert his power over nature. The Popes of the 17th and 18th centuries were extolled with baroque style fountains built to mark the arrival points of Roman aqueducts.\nIndoor plumbing became the main source of water by the end of the 19th century thereby limiting urban fountains to mere decorative elements. The introduction of unique water effects and the recycling of water were two things made possible by swapping gravity with mechanical pumps.\nThese days, fountains decorate public areas and are used to honor individuals or events and fill recreational and entertainment needs.\nUp right up until the Archaic Greeks provided the very first freestanding sculpture, a noteworthy triumph, carvings had primarily been accomplished in walls and pillars as reliefs. Younger, ideal male or female (kore) Greeks were the subject matter of most of the statues, or kouros figures. The kouroi were believed by the Greeks to represent beauty and were sculpted with one foot leading and an uncompromising stiffness to their forward-facing poses; the male statues were always strapping, brawny, and undressing. In 650 BC, life-size versions of the kouroi began to be observed. A substantial age of transformation for the Greeks, the Archaic period brought about more forms of state, expressions of art, and a greater appreciation of people and cultures outside of Greece. Throughout this time and other periods of historical tumultuousness, clashes often happened, among them wars fought between city-states such as the Arcadian wars and the Spartan invasion of Samos.\nSince garden water fountains are no longer dependent on a nearby pond, it is possible to place them close to a wall. In addition, it is no longer necessary to excavate, deal with a difficult installation procedure or tidy up the pond. There is no plumbing required with this type self-sufficient water feature.\nDo not forget, however, to put in water at regular intervals. Empty the water from the bowl and place fresh water in its place when you see that the area is unclean.\nAny number of materials can be used to build garden wall fountains, but stone and metal are the most convenient. The most suitable material for your water feature depends entirely on the style you choose. The best styles for your outdoor wall fountain are those which are handmade, easy to put up and not too cumbersome to hang. The water feature you choose must be easy to maintain as well. Even though installing certain fountains can be hard, the majority require little effort because the only parts which demand special care are the re-circulating pump and the hardware to hang them. You can easily perk up your garden with these types of fountains.\nWith the development of the first raised aqueduct in Rome, the Aqua Anio Vetus in 273 BC, individuals who lived on the city\u2019s hillsides no longer had to depend only on naturally-occurring spring water for their needs.

It is hard to believe that you only met John in 2008 because reading the book I get a feeling that somehow, you knew each other for far longer.\nI think this book comes at a good time for those who work caring for children because, to use a phrase I\u2019ve used elsewhere, the essence of caring is not about commodification but about relationships. In Ireland at any rate, social care workers are more than ever subjected to the jargon of supposed certainties which benefit no one, least of all, children with difficulties.\nI find, in reading your book, that John was the real antidote to what now can tie social care workers up in knots \u2013 on the one hand regularly encouraged to use their professional judgement and yet when they do, even with positive results, can find themselves facing a bureaucratic nightmare. There was a time, and this is perhaps another example of my dinosaur status, when one could write in a log book, \u201cTom had a very good morning\u201d, safe in the knowledge that those you worked with and worked for knew what was meant. Now, on good authority, I believe you must detail how and why Tom had a very good morning. The very core of the ebb and flow of life in residential care is now subject to the latest buzz words, one of which at the moment here is \u201cjourney\u201d. Everyone, from the cat to the King has to be on a journey of some sort. But enough of my meanderings and back to the book.\nThe saddest part for me has to be the boy saying to John on his being withdrawn from New Barns by his local authority, \u201cJohn, you said I could always live here.\u201d\nThe most infuriating part was of course the story of the trial which kept bringing Arthur Miller\u2019s line in The Crucible to mind\u2026\u201dYou are pulling down heaven and raising up a whore.\u201d Most striking of course is your description of John\u2019s lack of bitterness and resentment and in that I think he was a better man than most. I know, in fact, I\u2019m certain, I would be very far behind him in that attitude. Also, it was lovely to read of Jim Nichol being so impressed by what Eve Foster and Maureen Ward had to say. It struck me that they perhaps were the best inspection service a unit might hope for, somewhat removed but imbibing all that was good around them.\nThe anecdotes from those who worked with John were, as with most anecdotes about people in this kind of work, quirky and revealing. Of course his innate modesty and true sense of justice were what most come through in the book as well as a thorough delving into what constitutes the therapeutic task.\nInteresting you mention that John had no great reliance on theoretical matters and yet there is a very evident theoretical base in his conversations with you and the extracts from his writings. Also, you get across the idea that he was always about with his cup of tea and that can\u2019t be said of many managers now pressurised by all kinds of bureaucratic demands.\nApplicable I think to John also and to many who worked with him are those lines from Wordsworth:\nThat best portion of a good man\u2019s life\nHis little, nameless, unremembered acts of kindness and of love.\nI hope, Charles, that the book gets the readership it richly deserves and well done in bringing John\u2019s life and times to us.\nThis letter has also been published as a permanent article in the goodenoughcaring Journal.\nA Shared Experience John Cross, his life, thoughts and writing by Charles Sharpe, published by Abbeyhill Press Totnes in 2018.

At once John knew that what was going on at the school was what he wanted to do for the rest of his life.\nIn 1965, he with others of kindred spirit founded a therapeutic community where the children and adults lived together. The community flourished until 1992 when the school closed in controversial circumstances and some members of the therapeutic team were put on trial. They were found not guilty but the pain of these events is still felt today.\nJohn Cross knew and conferred with those who were considered pioneers of the therapeutic community movement. He eschewed the role of charismatic leader. He believed in the essential goodness of groups and teams of people. Given what the children, the adults and John achieved in their shared experience, it might be argued that the community of New Barns deserved the accolade \u201cpioneering\u201d.\nThroughout his life John enjoyed sustenance and support from his family. He was a Quaker, a psychotherapist and served for many years as a magistrate in the youth justice system. After the closure of New Barns he became the executive of The Planned Environment Therapy Trust at The Barns Centre. John retired in 2011and still spent most of his days helping at the Trust until the his final illness. This book details the story of John\u2019s life and records some of his thinking and his writing.\nA Shared Experience John Cross, his life, thoughts and writing : by Charles Sharpe, published by Abbeyhill Press, Totnes; ISBN 978-0-9560438-1-8, 327pp \u00a37.95.\nTo order a copy of this book or to express an interest in it email\ngoodenoughcaring@icloud.com\nThis entry was posted in goodenoughcaring.com on August 1, 2018 by Charles Sharpe.\nRemembering John Cross: news of a book about his life, thoughts and writing.\nJust over a year ago on July 10th, 2017, John Cross, the former Principal of New Barns School and the one time Executive Director of the Planned Environment Therapy died.

The venue is Studio 3 Dartington Hall The cost is \u00a320.\nOn-line booking for this lecture is now open.\nTherapeutic Communities: The Radical Edge\nIn the 1300s, the village of Geel in Flanders used to welcome \u2018mentally afflicted pilgrims\u2019 and supported them to work on the land, saving them from early death as outcasts from society; in the 1790s, William Tuke founded The Retreat in York and started the \u2018Moral Treatment\u2019 movement, in which people with mental illness were no longer chained up and kept as animals. In the Second World War, the group therapy experiments with battle-shocked soldiers brought the name \u2018therapeutic communities\u2019 into psychiatric practice. All these endeavours challenged the established exercise of power and the traditional nature of relationships.\nThis paper will explain what therapeutic communities are standing up for and challenging in contemporary times: why they are still at the radical edge of psychiatry and mental health services \u2013 and need to be. It will cover themes including the politics of data and evidence; biomedical and pharmaceutical dominance; fluid hierarchies; immersive training experiences; how patient safety can become a health hazard; taking control of quality; and toxic environments.\nRex Haigh studied social sciences as well as medicine as an undergraduate, being particularly interested in critical theories of psychiatry. After working as a GP, he trained as psychiatrist, then as an NHS medical psychotherapist and group analyst \u2013 and became a consultant in Berkshire in 1994, where he has been based since. He received a mid-career award from the Health Foundation in 2002, and became Clinical Advisor to the English Personality Disorder Development Programme until it closed in 2011. At the Royal College of Psychiatrists, he was the founder of \u2018Community of Communities\u2019 quality network in 2002 and the \u2018Enabling Environments\u2019 award in 2008. He was on the NICE guideline development group for Borderline Personality Disorder, and is involved with several third sector organisations in the Personality Disorder field. His particular clinical interests are modified therapeutic communities, ecotherapy, critical psychiatry, and service user partnership. The social enterprise he chairs, \u2018Growing Better Lives\u2019 won the 2014 sustainability award from the Royal College of Psychiatrists. He was appointed as Honorary Professor of Therapeutic Environments and Relational Health at Nottingham University\u2019s School of Sociology and Social Policy in 2015.\nThis entry was posted in goodenoughcaring.com on June 28, 2018 by Charles Sharpe.\nChildhood : Alice Miller gives us pause for thought.\n\u201cEvery life and every childhood is filled with frustrations; we cannot imagine it otherwise, for even the best mother cannot satisfy all her child\u2019s wishes and needs. It is not the suffering caused by frustration, however, that leads to emotional illness but rather the fact that the child is forbidden by the parents to experience and articulate this suffering, the pain felt at being wounded; usually the purpose of this prohibition is to protect the parents\u2019 defence mechanisms. Adults are free to hurl reproaches at God, at fate, at the authorities, or at society if they are deceived, ignored, punished unjustly, confronted with excessive demands or lied to. Children are not allowed to reproach their gods \u2013 their parents and teachers. By no means are they allowed express their frustrations. Instead, they must repress or deny their emotional reactions which build up inside until adulthood, when they are finally discharged, but not on the object which caused them. The forms this discharge may take range from persecuting their own children by the way they bring them up, to all possible degrees of mental illness, to addiction, criminality, and suicide.\u201d*\nAlice Miller wrote the above in 1980. Her interpretation of childhood may have been open to question even when she wrote these words, but would they hold true now ? Are children allowed to be their true selves? Certainly some would argue that the nature of parenting and teaching nowadays has become even more prescriptive, giving less space for children to express themselves freely.\n*The text quoted is an extracted from page 254 of Alice Miller\u2019s book For Your Own Good Hidden Cruelty in Child-rearingThe Roots of Violence published in 1980 by Virago Press, London.\nA Fair Chance in Life : Helping Children Flourish The next Limbus lecture\nFarhad Dalal informs us that the next Limbus lecture will be on Saturday, June 9th from 10.30am to 1pm at Studio 3, Dartington Hall.\nThe Lecture, A Fair Chance in Life: Helping Children Flourish will be given by Sue Gerhardt, the author of the deservedly praised, ( in my view, [ed] ), and influential book Why Love Matters : how affection shapes a baby\u2019s brain published in 2004 by Brunner \u2013 Routledge.\nOn Line Booking through the website\nOr come and pay at the door.\nIf you intend to pay at the door, please arrive well before 10.30 to avoid holdups.\nFull Details of the event are on the Limbus website:\nwww.limbus.org.uk\nThis entry was posted in goodenoughcaring.com, News on February 27, 2018 by Charles Sharpe.\nSocial Care Ireland\u2019s 2018 Annual Conference: \u201cWorking with Strengths and Abilities\u201d\nNoel Howard has written to remind us that the Social Care Ireland Annual Conference for 2018 Working with Strengths and Abilities takes place at the Radisson Blu Hotel in Athlone on March 21st and 22nd.\nAn Early Bird offer and a range of booking options are available at www.socialcareireland.ie\nThis entry was posted in News on February 23, 2018 by Charles Sharpe.\nThe Magic Years of Selma Fraiberg: Clinician, Researcher, and Writer.

This keynote\nwill consider the origins of our eld, which was originally fueled by a deep scienti c and psychoanalytic curiosity about the nuances of infant-parent interaction, the meaning of early experience, the remarkable transferences between parental early experience and relating to the child in the present. What is most important to us, now? What would Selma say? She taught us mindfulness without ever using the then-unknown word. She taught us the bliss of modesty and not-knowing, of attunement, of following, of holding. She required the discipline of self-knowing, and resulting self-regulation.\n2:10pm-3:00pm: Re ections on The Magic Years by Clinician-Mothers Today\nElizabeth (Beth) Kita, PhD, LCSW Rebecca Mayahag, MSW, LCSW-C Christina Papanestor, LCSW, BCD\nThree clinicians who are also mothers of young children will re ect on their reading of Fraiberg\u2019s classic The Magic Years as it impacts their current parenting experiences.\n3:00pm-3:20pm: Coffee Break\n3:20pm-4:10pm: Selma and Me:\nMaster Teacher and Trauma-obsessed Trainee\nLenore Terr, MD\nFrom 1964 to 1966, Terr attended Fraiberg\u2019s Continuous Case Conference on child treatment at the University of Michigan Children\u2019s Psychiatric Hospital as well as presentations on Fraiberg\u2019s research on blind babies.

He retired from his role as Director of the Planned Environment Therapy Trust in 2012. Until the onset of his illness in the autumn of 2015, John continued to be involved in the daily life of PETT at Toddington in Gloucestershire.\nIn 1952, his early ambition to take up a place at Durham University and to become a politician faded on the completion of his National Service when the direction of his life was altered by a summer placement at Bodenham Manor School where David Wills was the Warden. John decided that what was going on at the school felt right and that shared experience in a therapeutic community would provide the pathway for his life. In the following decades John was engaged in the community life of Bodenham Manor School, Herefordshire, Ashley House Remand Home, Worksop, New Heys Reception Centre, Liverpool and New Barns School, Toddington.\nAt the same time as he was engaged as a member of the group of children and adults at New Barns John became a psychotherapist, served as a magistrate in the Juvenile Justice System, was the Chairman of the Youth and Family Courts and Vice Chairman of the Gloucestershire Probation Committee.\nJohn maintained his relationships with those who had been with him and his colleagues at New Barns. Over the years he became a \u2018best man\u2019 at their weddings and a godparent at the christening of their children many times over.\nJohn played an influential role in a number of other organisations. He was a founding member of the Association of Workers with Maladjusted Children (AWMC) which later became the Social, Emotional and Behavioural Difficulties Association (SEBDA) and for over 40 years served on its Council. Prior to his death was John was the only living founding member of PETT. He was a founding member of other groups too including the Charterhouse Group, Young Minds and the Child Care History Network.\nOver his career John wrote and presented a number of influential papers about therapeutic communities and planned environment therapy and he co-authored the controversial 1979 Quaker publication Six Quakers Look at Crime and Punishment: A Study Paper.\nJohn was a Quaker. He was a man modest about his achievements. For him achievement was the shared experience of a community. John is survived by his two sisters Sybil and Cynthia. He will be sorely missed and fondly remembered by so many of the people with whom he shared experience and a community life.\nHere is the text of an interview with John from 2010 and this is the article he wrote for the goodenoughcaring Journal in 2012, Some tentative thoughts on the concept of planned environment therapy is at http://www.goodenoughcaring.com/the-journal/some-tentative-thoughts-on-the-concept-of-planned-environment-therapy/\nThis entry was posted in goodenoughcaring.com, News on August 3, 2017 by Charles Sharpe.\nTo contact goodenoughcaring email goodenoughcaring@icloud.com",

        "raw_content": "The Monkey or the Gorilla?\nStates are the level of government we go to because we don't expect the others to succeed.\nSometimes the middle is a comfortable place to be; sometimes it isn't. Middle children have complained for centuries about getting squeezed by siblings above and below, and missing out on their fair share of parental attention. On the other hand, studies consistently show that middle children develop skills of negotiation and conciliation that older and younger siblings lack.\nThe middle used to be a terrific niche for a department store, ample enough to control all the territory between discounters at the low end and high-priced boutiques at the top. Then Wal-Mart and Nordstrom entered the field at opposite ends, and suddenly middle-hugging Sears was squeezed to the brink of insolvency.\nThe truth is, most of us are ambivalent about middleness. On the one hand, it connotes power and importance, as it has always done for the Middle Kingdom of China and its admirers. On the other hand, it suggests maddening conflicts and pressures. It's no coincidence that the childhood game of Keep Away is also known as Monkey in the Middle. Or that a large cohort of baby boomers can still recite the lyrics to the 30-year-old rock song by Stealers' Wheel: \"Clowns to the left of me, jokers to the right--here I am. Stuck in the middle with you.\"\nThe composers of that song weren't known as students of the American federal system, but they might as well have been writing the anthem of one particular player in that system: the 50 states. They are stuck in the middle, perched uneasily between local governments that instinctively distrust them and a leviathan in Washington that can push them around any time it really wants to. In a complicated system of multiple layers and divided authority, the middle can be the ideal spot for leveraging power against rivals in both directions. It can also be the hapless receptacle for incessant demands from below and directives from above, all issued with scant attention to how much they cost and who is going to pay for them.\nThe political scientist Martha Derthick made all these points eloquently a few years ago in an essay called \"The Paradox of the Middle Tier,\" recently reprinted in an anthology of her work, \"Keeping the Compound Republic.\" \"As governments,\" Derthick wrote, \"states are headed by elected officials who have to take the heat from the public when hard choices are to be made. On the other hand, because they are subordinate governments, they also have to take orders from Washington.\" On some days, running a state means being the power broker at the center of the system. On other days, it just means being the monkey in the middle.\nThe ambiguities of this role seem more striking right now than they have been in quite a while. More and more, Derthick points out, states are becoming the \"default setting\" of the American regulatory machine- -the level of government citizens turn to when the others are unable or unwilling to help, or just tired of failing. There are myriad examples of this from the past decade alone, from areas as diverse as welfare, health care, growth management and air pollution. Some institution of government has to worry about these things; more often than not, it is the states that get the assignment. But it's an assignment that can be carried out only in the face of ever-changing conditions and demands imposed from both above and below.\nIt may seem that this is the eternal condition of American government, a truism that goes back to the 19th century, if not to 1789. In fact, however, as Derthick makes clear, it is a relatively new situation.\nThe states have always been the middlemen in the constitutional system, but for most of the nation's history, that didn't leave them a great deal to do. The federal government waged war, delivered the mail and provided subsidies to railroads and other capital projects. Local government policed the streets, educated the children and took care of the poor. Legally, localities were creatures of the states, and answerable to them for the their conduct. But most legislatures had little inclination to hold them accountable. States were more bystanders than anything else. As late as 1929, cities and counties in America employed more people than the states and the feds combined.\nIt was in the 1930s that the rules changed, not so much because states wanted to work harder but because Washington essentially forced them to. Congress enacted numerous laws regulating complex social and economic forces, but realized in doing so that it possessed little capacity--or little enthusiasm--for enforcing them. The federal government made a commitment to write checks to welfare recipients, but it left the states to set their own benefit standards, and they in turn depended on local governments to staff the offices and make decisions in individual cases.\nThis became the template for most programs involving welfare or other social services. The feds wrote the laws, provided the money and imposed guidelines. Then they left state government to work out the details, and as often as not, local government to wait on the customers. This reassured conservatives in both political parties who were nervous about aggrandizing federal power. It also gave the states a policy-making role they never had before--but made them a central target for new mandates and directives, and complaints about service, benefit levels and procedural fairness.\nIn the decades that followed, schools and highways increasingly became matters of state responsibility, in part by federal directive, in part due to lack of local capacity. For most of the 20th century, more than 90 percent of all school funding was generated at the local level. By the 1980s, more than half was coming from the states--even before courts began demanding that legislatures make an effort to equalize educational resources between rich and poor districts. Thus it was that governors began to win election by vowing to fix dysfunctional school systems--and to be held responsible for failure-- even though nearly all the important educational policy decisions remained in local hands, beyond any governor's control.\nIn the 1990s, however, states became crucial decision makers for a different reason--not by federal design, or through federal or local reticence, but because of federal gridlock. Congress argued noisily about health care costs, utility deregulation and a host of other important regulatory issues, raised the level of demands for action on them--and then took no action. The states, feeling the same pressures, managed to act. They passed laws protecting patients' rights and monitoring HMO abuses (with a fair degree of success) and opening the electricity business to private competition (with very little success, at least for consumers). But what's clear is that they have been dealing with problems on which Washington has been able to do little besides posture.\nIn this decade, it seems fair to say that the Derthick Doctrine-- states are the \"default setting\" of the American federal system--may even be putting it a little mildly. States aren't just the level of government we go to when the others fail; they now are the level of government we go to because we don't expect the others to succeed.\nAnd more and more, states aren't waiting to be asked. This goes far beyond legislative activity. It applies most dramatically to the activism of state attorneys general in the judicial system. Congress failed to agree on legislation imposing responsibility for health care costs on tobacco companies; the states sued the companies and won. The Bush administration made an antitrust deal with Microsoft Corp.; the states sued and kept the case alive. Currently, while Congress holds sensational hearings on the Enron collapse and other financial scandals--but shows no eagerness to pass any laws--the attorney general of New York State is preparing to sue Wall Street securities firms in federal court.\nThe point is not that all of these are good ideas. There are serious questions to be raised about the constitutional propriety of any attorney general taking such bold steps in the absence of popular or legislative authority. The point is that once states and their elected leaders begin thinking of themselves as the actors of first resort on crucial questions--rather than actors of last resort--the logic of the whole system is in for a change.\nBut if the states are enjoying the expanded benefits of political centrality, they are still feeling the pains of old-fashioned middleness. As state governments turn increasingly activist, they are suffering through their worst revenue squeeze in more than two decades. Unlike Washington, which has the federal income tax, and cities and counties, which have the local property tax, states are caught in between, forced to live on whatever fiscal scraps the other levels of government leave them: a sales tax full of loopholes, an income tax that is unpredictably hostage to the level of federal receipts, an opportunity to bilk visiting hotel guests and auto renters out of as much money as the market will bear. The feds and locals may have budget problems, but at least they know where their money has to come from. Most states don't even have that degree of certainty. That's why virtually all of them are confronting huge shortages in the revenue they need to operate.\nAt the moment, most states are temporizing on this issue, trying short-term fixes, putting off any comprehensive reexamination of their fiscal systems. Sometime in the next couple of years, however, they would be smart to place this problem--painful as it may be--somewhere near the top of their agendas. If they manage to solve it, they have a chance to evolve into the fearsome gorilla of the 21st-century federal system--not just the monkey in the middle.",

        "raw_content": "Placement matters with hand sanitizer dispensers for visitors\nMaking sure everyone follows correct hand hygiene protocol at your hospital is important. It\u2019s hard enough to get doctors and nurses to wash their hands regularly, but you also have to worry about visitors\u2019 hand hygiene.\nWhile you can\u2019t make patients\u2019 friends and family wash their hands, there are actions you can take to stop the spread of germs.\nHospital visitors can inadvertently bring all types of bacteria in from the outside, which contributes to the spread of infections in vulnerable patients. According to a news release, new research shows that facilities can better address this problem with the use of strategically placed hand sanitizer dispensers.\nA study published in the American Journal of Infection Control tested how likely visitors were to use hand sanitizer before entering patient areas based on where the dispensers were located.\nResearchers placed the dispensers in three areas at Greenville Memorial Hospital in South Carolina:\nthe middle of the hospital visitors\u2019 entrance, just in front of the revolving door\nin front of the information desk, and\nbetween the main revolving door and the side door to the lobby.\nTo see which dispensers were used most often, researchers observed thousands of visitors during peak visiting hours, which were 10 to 11:30 a.m. and 4 to 5:30 p.m., over a three-week period at the facility.\nResult: Visitors were most likely to use hand sanitizer when a dispenser was placed in the middle of the hospital lobby floor by the visitor entrance area. The dispensers located near the information desk and to the side of the lobby weren\u2019t nearly as popular.\nOther factors also influenced whether a visitor would sanitize his or her hands upon entering the visiting area. Interestingly, children and young adults were almost 50% more likely to use hand sanitizer dispensers than their elders. And people who came to the hospital in groups were about 40% more likely to use a hand sanitizer dispenser than those who visited alone.\nWith fewer than 1% of visitors saying they washed their hands before seeing patients, according to prior research, anything a hospital can do to encourage some form of hand hygiene has benefits for patients.\nIf your facility is installing hand sanitizer dispensers for visitors, it\u2019s probably best to place them in a prominent area that\u2019s in clear view right as they enter the hospital. Posting signs reminding visitors of the importance of sanitizing or washing their hands before seeing patients may also be helpful in boosting their compliance.\nTags: hand hygiene, hand sanitizer, visitors",

        "raw_content": "You Are Here: Maps & Charts > The Middle States > A plan of the Siege of Savannah\nA beautiful and informative map of an important event in the War of Independence\nHydrographer/Surveyor/Artist: John Wilson\nSurveyed by engineer John Wilson, this map shows the southern coast of South Carolina and Georgia. It depicts the 'defeat of the French and the Rebels on the 9th October 1779 by his Majesty's Forces under the Command of Major General Augustin Prevost'.\nGeorgia was significantly different from other colonies in that it did not have the political infrastructure that had developed over the last century in Virginia. For example. Georgia had the smallest population of the 13 colonies and did not require the overhead of local governments. Parishes were formed between 1757 and 1765 but these were not administrative bodies as today's counties are - they were more a part of the religious and military organization. It is worth noting that the main part of the map shows the boundaries between the Parishes, and it also depicts in detail the coastal features including inlets, rivers, marsh land, sand banks and the borders of the Indian territories which were significant at the time. The map also marks and names Forts and settlements up and down the coast.\nBy the time this map was drawn the British had already decided that by occupying key towns such as Savannah in Georgia and Charleston in South Carolina, and by mobilizing and arming the loyalist population, including the slaves, they might achieve the following:\nThey may be able to split the 'middle' states from the other more northerly states and retain them as part of the British Empire.\nThe more loyalists that could be assimilated into the army, the more British troops could be concentrated elsewhere;\nThey might yet retain financial control - apart from anything else these \u2018middle\u2019states produced the commodities upon which the economics of Empire was built - tobacco, rice, indigo and so on;\nThey may yet link these states along with their holdings in east Florida, the Bahamas and Bermuda as a new colonial grouping to compensate for the loss of the New England states.\nHaving taken Savannah on December 29th 1778 with 2,500 troops under Lt. Col. Archibald Campbell as the opening operation in their new 'Southern Strategy', the British set about taking control of Georgia with the help of locally enlisted Loyalist support. The importance of a town such as Savannah was such that it became a priority for the Americans to retake the coastal Georgia port. The recent emergence of the French as an ally was central to this operation. Admiral Valerie D'estaing, still unhappy at his recent failure in Rhode Island against the British, was sent to provide naval support in a combined blockade and attack, alongside the Americans. On his arrival he crucially delayed launching an attack on the under-prepared British who were holding the town of Savannah. By the time the Americans, under the command of Major General Benjamin Lincoln, had positioned thier troops and agreed the plan with the French commanders, it was the 23rd September, and the British had finished reinforcing the town defences and had called for support from Loyalists in South Carolina. By the 4th October it was clear that the British were not going to surrender and the American and French allies began their attack across a broad front on the 9th October. They were repulsed and Savannah remained under British control until July 1782.",

This in turn, is our destiny. As one value is fulfilled, another will come about. Life\u2019s purpose is all about values. Values are like fingerprints. No\nI find the chat system gives a moment of reflection to the person. Some people are great with listening while others require for their senses to write and feel the words. Its more of a slower process though. I find for some they will experience more be\nI have reached a point in my life where I go with the flow. I know all is in Divine Order, Perfection and Timing, I feel very balanced. There is an occasion where I may feel not as sparky as usual. In that momen,t I will sit down and ask myself what is it that I require to let go of. I know it's all my creation as a story I let it go. I look at problems as opportunities. So I may ask myself how grand was I in order to create something like that. I switch my thoughts in order to create another scenario. I dont feel I have to de-stress. It's more about re-creating.\nPsychic Aliya\nAliya's Ratings and Reviews\nhazel1989 11/20/2018\nAliya is truly an angel!

Winds northerly, light to moderate. The temperature in Athens will range from 24 to 36C, at the islands from 24 to 33C and in Thessaloniki from 21 to 35C.\nWithin the framework of changes to be introduced to the electoral law New Democracy party MP Viron Polidoras will meet with the Interior Minister.\nYesterday, Mr Costas Scandalides briefed the Secretary General of the Greek Communist party Aleka Papariga, who reiterated that her party would not participate in the dialogue, insisting on her demand for a simple proportional representation electoral system.\nThe government proposal will be given to political parties after August 15, while the interparty committee will meet at the beginning of September.\nToday, the cabinet will meet under the chairmanship of Prime Minister Costas Simitis to discuss the selection of supreme judicial officials. Then, Mr Simitis will preside a series of by ministerial meetings for the International Trade Fair in Thessaliniki and projects in Piraeus.\nIn the evening he will be present at a reception hosted by the President of the Hellenic Republic Costis Stephanopoulos for the restoration of democracy in Greece.\nAddressing the residents of Pefki, and Athens suburb yesterday, New Democracy party leader Costas Karamanlis referred to the civilians' everyday problems and quality of life, underlining that the results of the government policy were not the expected ones in the battle for the improvement of the civilians' financial conditions.\nThe National Action Plan of the Ministry of Labour that was publicized yesterday gives priority to the boosting of incentives for the rehabilitation of unemployed to working positions, high incentives for female employment, as well as programmes for the combating of long lasting unemployment.\nThe Plan will be discussed in Zappeion on Wednesday by the National Employment Committee, which is constituted by representatives of social partners.\nThe Minister of Labour agreed that unemployment constitutes one of the greatest problems of the Greek society, pointing out however that a decrease of 2.5% rate had been recorded in comparison to the respective period in 2000.\nThe government aims at achieving 25% absorption of funds from the Third Community Support Framework by the end of 2003.\nFor this reason Prime Minister Costas Simitis had marathon meetings at the Maximos Mansion with the minister of Environment, Physical Planning and Public Works, Development, Transport, Civilization and Health.",

        "raw_content": "Sustainable ocean governance is critical for sustainable economic growth, employment and poverty alleviation. So, as research shows, is gender equality. Creating two-way opportunities for empowering women and growing the Blue Economy was the topic of an Indian Ocean Rim Association (IORA) webinar, Women\u2019s Economic Empowerment and the Blue Ocean Economy, that took place in January. By Andrea Teagle.\nThe health of the Earth, and the livelihoods of billions of people globally, relies on our oceans. In South Africa, coastal goods and services alone are estimated to account for over a third (35%) of gross domestic product (GDP). SA\u2019s Ocean Economy national plan, Operation Phakisa, estimates that growing the Blue Economy could provide 1 million new jobs locally by 2033. Although half of the Indian Ocean Region\u2019s Blue Economy\u2013 which includes fisheries and aquaculture, shipping, seabed mining, renewable energy, marine biotechnology and tourism \u2013 is made up of women, managerial positions remain heavily male dominated.\nLast week, the Human Sciences Research Council (HSRC) hosted a IORA webinar on the intersection the Blue Economy and Women\u2019s Economic Development, recognising that the participation of women in ocean economy is not only essential for the realisation of women\u2019s economic potential \u2013 as this nexus of economic activity grows \u2013 but also to achieving sustainable ocean governance. Presenting at the event, which was attended by high-level officials from the members of the IORA states, were Professor Narnia Bohler-Muller and Professor Joleen Steyn Kotze of the HSRC.\n\u201cWhat we would like to focus on\u2026is how the blue economy could enhance and empower women, and how women could play a crucial role in the blue economy.\u201d Narnia Bohler-Muller, who is also chair of the IORA Academic Group.\nBohler-Muller noted that one of the major obstacles to addressing gaps in women\u2019s participation in the Blue Economy was a lack of quantitative data on women\u2019s contributions across the fields. Although it is estimated that women constitute half of the fishers workforce globally, women\u2019s roles are often overlooked or invisible, and fisheries statistics notoriously do not capture women\u2019s contributions.\nWomen\u2019s contributions in other areas, like oceans renewable energy and science, and as frequent advocates for conservation have also been under-recognized where, in fact, women comprise 38% of ocean scientists worldwide.\nThe Blue Economy clearly stands to benefit from women\u2019s empowerment simply by way of a broader talent pool. But there is another reason for prioritizing women in ocean science, particularly marine conservation and renewable oceans energies: women and girls are hardest hit by the effects of climate change. Thus, responding appropriately requires representation of women in science and in all levels of research and decision making processes. In a recent paper, Ungendering the Ocean, Elana Gissi, of the Universit\u00e0 Iuav di Venezia, and her colleagues note that women have been shown to practice more environmentally and economically sustainable behaviours than men.\n\u201cWithin [ocean renewable energies], they need to have a strong gender mainstreaming component,\u201d Kotze said at the IORA conference, \u201cAnd one of the preliminary policy recommendations is really trying to look developing and adopting IORA wide regulatory framework on sustainable and alternative energy sources within the ocean.\nIORA has taken a number of steps to prioritise women\u2019s economic participation and the Blue Economy in the last five years, notably last year\u2019s creation of the Working group on Women\u2019s Economic Empowerment (WGWEE) and the Blue Economy Working Group coordinated by South Africa. Bohler-Muller recommends that the working groups coordinate efforts to optimise impact within this intersection.\nBut, despite changes at a policy level, on the ground, women still face significant barriers to the ocean economy, particularly in traditionally male dominated sectors like shipping and sea-bed mining. It was as recently as 2016 that South Africa welcomed its first three black female ship captains, or commercial cargo vessel Master Mariners. Kotze emphasised the need for qualitative data to better understand these every-day obstacles and women\u2019s lived realities in these fields.\n\u201cThe key preliminary policy intervention here is the need to engage the reality of women in this industry,\u201d Kotze said. \u201cTo speak to women who has captained ships...to unpack the dynamics and experiences of women when they are in positions of leadership in those nonconventional roles\u2026 but also some of the specific challenges they face: issues of rape [and] maternity leave for example.\u201d\nCountry data from the World Values Survey on people\u2019s attitudes and beliefs about social issues suggest that support for gender equality in practice remains low in many IORA member states, where women are still considered less capable than men in fields like business and politics.\nBohler-Muller noted the importance of being sensitive to social and cultural differences between countries, while promoting gender equality through policy. Despite these challenges, however, she remains upbeat about progress. The signing of the Balaclava Declaration on Women\u2019s Economic Empowerment last year was a particularly important shift towards greater gender equality in IORA member states. The declaration includes a clause recognising the potential role of the Blue Economy in uplifting women.\n\u201cThe wonderful thing is that we've, we've managed to get a declaration [on gender equality], and it took three to four years to do this...that's a really fantastic development.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Franz Schubert : A Biography\n(Elizabeth Norman McKay )\nThe author may not be especially inspired, but she's very readable, and she takes a straightforward approach to Schubert's life. She discusses the nature of Schubert's \"sexual profligacy\" and the possibility of his being homosexual without coming down on one side or the other. She believes that Schubert was manic-depressive (and that several other members of his family were as well), and advances some convincing evidence for her view. This is a worthwhile addition to the shelf of Schubert biographies.\nSchubert : The Music and the Man\n(Brian Newbould )\nBrian Newbould brings together the biographical data of Schubert's life with the music that he composed. The book is both readable and informative, the work of a professor of music at the University of Hull in Britain whose biographical data describes him as a composer, conductor, pianist, and lecturer. Newbould has been so bold as to finish the Unfinished Symphony and other of Schubert's uncompleted works, and he has a deep understanding of the man and his music.\nSchubert's Vienna\n(Raymond Erickson, Editor)\nAnne Frank wrote \"If I read a book that impresses me, I have to take myself firmly in hand before I mix with other people; otherwise they would think my mind rather queer\". This is the very sensation I have when closing this book.\nSchubert's Vienna is a must-read for anyone who wishes to truly understand the man behind the music. This wonderfully written and masterfully edited book details nearly every aspect of life in Vienna during the time of Franz Schubert. The age is defined historically, politically, socially, and even culturally (referring to the other arts). This makes the book an engaging read even for those who have only a casual interest in the composer but are interested in the city of Vienna or the Romantic era in general. A scholarly work that can be enjoyed by nearly any level student, I defy you to walk away without a sigh of nostalgia for the beauty of Schubert's Vienna.\nThe Cambridge Companion to Schubert\n(Christopher H. Gibbs, Editor)\nA number of myths and legends about composer Franz Schubert (1797-1828) still persist. This volume brings together a wide assortment of writings about Schubert by various critics, students, and researchers. The result is a thorough examination of the composer's life and music.",

        "raw_content": "Home | Resource News | Parkland Fuel Corporation to Acquire 75% of SOL, the Largest Independent Fuel Marketer in the Caribbean\nCALGARY, Alberta, Oct. 10, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) \u2014 Parkland Fuel Corporation (\u201cParkland\u201d, \u201cWe\u201d, \u201cOur\u201d or \u201cUs\u201d), (TSX:PKI) Canada\u2019s largest and one of North America\u2019s fastest growing independent marketers of fuel and petroleum products and a leading convenience store operator, and SOL Limited have entered into an agreement to complete a business combination (the \u201cBusiness Combination\u201d or \u201cTransaction\u201d) between Parkland and SOL Investments Limited (\u201cSIL\u201d) and its subsidiaries (collectively, \u201cSOL\u201d). A privately-held company owned by the Simpson Group, SOL is the largest independent fuel marketer in the Caribbean and a wholly-owned subsidiary of SOL Limited.\nSOL supplies and markets a total of 4.8 billion liters of fuel volume annually across 23 countries in the Caribbean and generated US$215 million (approximately C$280 millioni) in adjusted earnings before taxes, depreciation and amortization (\u201cAdjusted EBITDA\u201d) in the 12-month period ending June 2018.\nThe Transaction will result in Parkland acquiring 75% of the issued and outstanding shares in the capital of SIL (the \u201cSIL Shares\u201d) for total consideration of US$1.21 billion (approximately C$1.57 billion) plus customary post-closing adjustments on a cash-free and debt-free basis (the \u201cPurchase Price\u201d), and SOL Limited acquiring 12.16 million common shares in the capital of Parkland (the \u201cParkland Shares\u201d). This equates to a purchase price multiple on the 75% equity interest in SOL of approximately 7.5x Adjusted EBITDA, excluding working capital. Upon closing the Simpson Group, through its ownership in SOL Limited, will own approximately 9.9% of the issued and outstanding shares in Parkland and its intention is to remain a long-term investor in Parkland. The Transaction is expected to be immediately accretive to Parkland\u2019s distributable cash flow per share by approximately 17% (pre-synergies).\nThe remaining 25% of the shares outstanding in SIL are subject to the Minority Purchase/Sale Right (as defined below) pursuant to which Parkland may elect to acquire or SOL Limited may elect to sell the remaining shares in the capital of SIL. Based on SOL\u2019s Adjusted EBITDA for the 12-month period ending June 2018, the Adjusted EBITDA attributable to Parkland from the 75% ownership stake in SOL would have been US$161 million (approximately C$210 million), representing 75% of SOL\u2019s Adjusted EBITDA for the period.\nParkland President and CEO Bob Espey said, \u201cThe addition of SOL will extend our global supply reach and enable us to continue to build our supply advantage to benefit our entire business. With its integrated supply chain backed by an extensive distribution network, fortress assets, a premier brand portfolio and an exceptional team, SOL has built a strong market position with unparalleled regional scale. Together, Parkland and SOL create a significant North American and Caribbean growth platform. We are delighted to partner with the Simpson Group and welcome the opportunity to work with SOL\u2019s strong management team to optimize and grow SOL\u2019s industry leading retail and supply network through our combined scale and expertise.\u201d\nSir Kyffin Simpson, CBE, Founder of SOL Limited said, \u201cI am exceptionally pleased to announce the coming together (Business Combination) of Parkland and SOL, which will ensure an exciting and dynamic future for everyone. With a desire to continue to develop and grow the business through expansion in new areas, I am extremely blessed to bring in our good friends Parkland of Canada to the Caribbean. I have long admired Parkland as a company with their futuristic vision and energy, and I have been tremendously impressed with Bob Espey\u2019s strong leadership along with his exceptional management team.\u201d\n\u201cI am truly confident that this coming together with the fantastic team at SOL will be a complementary blend of cultures, ideas, technology and innovation. I am convinced that Parkland and SOL are perfectly matched to develop new and exciting opportunities, with renewed energy that will provide excellent avenues for the development of our people that will in turn enhance our customer experience and open new doors for great synergies and improved logistics. With forty-three million people and a GDP of more than US$200 billion, this is the perfect time to take advantage of the tremendous opportunities that abound in the Caribbean.\u201d\n\u201cThis coming together will also provide a big boost of confidence for regional investment opportunities and we are happy to do our part in this regard. Please therefore join with me in welcoming this wonderful team and organization to the region. I pray God\u2019s richest blessings on this coming together and I look forward to what the future has in store for us all.\u201d\nChief Financial Officer Mike McMillan said, \u201cThe scale of the pro-forma business combined with the strong cash flow from operations and operational synergies expected from SOL will further strengthen Parkland\u2019s balance sheet and capital structure. The financing for the Transaction will enable Parkland\u2019s pro forma total leverage ratio to remain below 3.5x. In addition, Parkland will be in a strong position from a balance sheet and capital structure perspective to continue to execute on our growth strategies.\u201d\nThe addition of stable earnings from 526 retail stations (266 company-owned or company-leased sites and 260 dealer owned and operated sites);\nProvides an opportunity to roll out Parkland\u2019s private label, loyalty and enhanced food offer;\nPositions Parkland to access supply at scale in the US Gulf Coast, creating future growth opportunities and supply advantage in the US Gulf and Atlantic coasts for Parkland USA (in addition to our continued focus on the US Northern Tier and Rocky Mountain regions);\nTotal identified annual run-rate synergies of approximately 20% of SOL\u2019s Adjusted EBITDA over the next three years;\nPro forma net debt to Parkland Adjusted EBITDA of approximately 3.2x on a consolidated basis with a strong deleveraging profile; and\nThe SOL operating brands will remain in place, and the SOL business will retain key management and continue to be managed from the Caribbean.\nParkland and SOL Limited, the sole shareholder of SIL, will enter into a shareholders agreement that grants a call right for Parkland and put right for SOL Limited (collectively, the \u201cMinority Purchase/Sale Right\u201d), pursuant to which Parkland may elect to acquire or SOL Limited may elect to sell the remaining 25% portion of the issued and outstanding shares in the capital of SOL (the \u201cRemaining Shares\u201d) at a value of 8.5x the Adjusted EBITDA of SOL based on the then current audited financial statements. The Minority Purchase/Sale Right will be exercisable by either party for a period of 90 days following the release by Parkland of its audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 (or December 31, 2021 in the event that closing does not occur on or before December 31, 2018). The Minority Purchase/Sale Right will be exercisable annually thereafter by either party for a period of 90 days following the release by Parkland of its audited annual financial statements.\nThe Transaction is subject to the receipt of customary third-party consents and regulatory approvals, including approval of the Toronto Stock Exchange. Closing of the Transaction is expected to occur in late Q4 2018.\nThrough strategic acquisitions and organic growth, SOL has built \u2018fortress assets\u2019 in stable markets across the region;\nSOL is the largest independent fuel marketer and convenience store operator in the Caribbean region, with more than 4.8 billion liters of annual volume and approximately US$215 million (approximately C$280 million) in estimated Adjusted EBITDA (excluding expected synergies);\nProvides comprehensive and key infrastructure in the Caribbean region to extend and enhance Parkland\u2019s supply advantage and expertise;\nAdds significant scale to Parkland\u2019s retail and supply businesses;\nProvides increased exposure to stable earnings across multiple lines of business;\nProvides diversification from the North American market;\nSignificantly contributes to Parkland\u2019s US dollar cash flows;\nPositions Parkland to access supply at scale in the US Gulf Coast, creating future growth opportunities and supply advantage in the US Gulf and Atlantic coasts for Parkland USA;\nSupports acquisition and expansion opportunities in the Caribbean region and broader Americas; and\nOpens Parkland\u2019s business to global supply advantages to benefit existing and future business opportunities.\nSOL Retail Business\nRepresents approximately 2.0 billion liters of annual volume with operations in 20 countries;\nIncludes 526 retail stations (266 company owned or company leased sites and 260 dealer owned and operated sites); and\nOperates 197 Shell-branded retail stations and 163 ESSO-branded retail stations and enjoys a long-standing relationship with both premier retail brands in the Caribbean.

        "title": "Intertax - Effects of 2013 Fiscal Cliff Act & Tax Planning",
        "raw_content": "As I have mentioned previously, Congress proposed tax increases and spending cuts set to go into effect on the New Year were like two wild horses posed to drag the U.S. economy to the edge of a fiscal cliff. Although Congress did not pull back those \u201chorses\u201d before 2013, they avoided implementing drastic tax hike on New Year\u2019s Day when they passed the American Taxpayer Relief Act (ATRA) to preserve most of the George W. Bush tax cuts and extend other expired tax provisions.\nThe other wild horse, across-the-board spending cuts on discretionary programs known as Sequestration will be held until March. The results are once again dependent on the negotiation within Congress, and we will update you as the situation develops.\nAccording to President Obama\u2019s speech, only the rich will shoulder a tax increase this year, but the political definition of the rich for tax purposes has recently changed dramatically. Within two years, the threshold went up from $200,000 for Medicare Surtax to $250,000 during President Obama\u2019s campaign. It has increased again to $400,000 for top tax rate purposes in new ATRA. The estate exemption amount rose up from $1 million to $5 million (10 million for a couple) in ten years. Is this because of the deflation of U.S. dollars or speedy growth of U.S. people\u2019s wealth?\nIt is becoming more confusing to determine the thresholds for the rich. Some are based on earned income, some are based on adjusted gross income, and some are based on taxable income.\nSocial security taxes are based on earned income. All wage earners and self-employed are subject to 2% FICA tax increase on earned income up to $113,700.\nMedicare Surtax\u2019 threshold is the most complicated. It can be based on earned income (salary or self-employed income), or AGI, or investment income, depending on the nature of the income you get. Earned income over $200,000 ($250,000 for a couple) is subject to 0.9% Medicare tax increase from 2.9%. Investment income for individual\u2019s AGI over $200,000 ($250,000 for a couple) is subject to 3.8% new Medicare Surtax. For estate and trust income, the threshold is at the highest tax bracket. The Medicare Surtax levels up Medicare tax on earned income and investment income to 3.8% on the rich.\nThe comeback phase-outs of itemized deductions and exemptions are based on AGI. If a taxpayern AGI.nis over $250,000 ($300,000 for a couple), his (their) itemized deductions and exemptions are phased out.\nThe increase of the Income tax rate is based on taxable income. A new 39.6% tax bracket was added for taxpayer\u2019s taxable income over $400,000 ($450,000 for a couple). It rose by 4.6% in 2013.\nATRA 2013 tax changes for each kind and level of income are summarized below. For a summary of tax provisions, please click the link below for an article by the AICPA: http://www.journalofaccountancy.com/News/20137097.htm\nATRA Tax Increase for Each Level of Income\nPhase out of itemized deductions and personal exemptions\nTop Tax Rate:\nCapital Gains & Dividends\nChanged From 4.2% to 6.2%\nChanged From 35% to 39.6%\nTop Rate Changed From 15% to 20%\nNew: 3.8%\n\u21910.9%\nThe tax benefit is even greater for rental or business properties. Rental or business properties can be depreciated yearly to offset income, but the adjusted bases of the properties have to be reduced. Upon the sale of the properties, the accumulated depreciation will be recaptured. However, when a taxpayer dies, all the depreciation recaptures are gone due to the stepped-up basis. These tax savings, automatic deferral, and potential tax free features make real estate investment as good as, or sometimes better than, tax free Roth IRA or Roth 401(K) investments.\nIf you would like to figure out how much your tax increase will be in 2013, please go to the Tax Policy Center website (http://calculator2.taxpolicycenter.org/index.cfm) and fill out your income information. You can also go the following link to see the detailed information about the tax differences of 2012 tax year, 2013 fiscal cliff, and ATRA:\nhttp://taxpolicycenter.org/taxtopics/Tax_Calculator_Law_Descriptions_11-12.cfm#ATRA.\nHow to make a good planning for this year\u2019s tax return? Since 2012 has been passed, it is a little too late to make major tax changes for 2012. However, there are still few swords that you can use to cut the tax bills, such as IRA contribution, depreciation, and charitable contributions among them.\nFor depreciation, the act extended through 2013 and retroactively to 2012 the $500,000 dollar limitation and phase-out threshold of $2 million in the cost of Sec. 179 property placed in service during the tax year.\nIRA contribution can be made before April 15 deadline for 2012 taxes this year. SEP IRA contribution can be made before the business tax return deadlines, including extensions. For corporations and partnerships, the extension deadline is September 15. For individuals, the extension deadline is October15. Please make sure that you file the extensions.\nAccording to AICPA, \u201cone individual provision extension offering a current opportunity to adjust tax liability for 2012 is tax-free charitable distributions from individual retirement plans, which had expired at the end of 2011. \u2026A special rule (Section 208(b) (2) of the act) allows taxpayers to make such a distribution after Dec. 31, 2012, and before Feb. 1, 2013, which will be deemed to have been made on Dec. 31, 2012. A portion of a distribution from an IRA to the taxpayer made after Nov. 30, 2012, and before Jan. 1, 2013, may be transferred to the charity before Feb. 1 and recharacterized as a qualified charitable distribution.\u201d\nFor long term tax planning, you should review your living trusts with your estate attorneys or accountants to see if they need to be amended. Do you need to make additional contributions into retirement funds? Should those contributions be pretax IRA or 401(K), or after-tax Roth IRA or Roth 401(K)? Or, should you choose to simply invest in properties such as real estate with tax deferral and potential tax-free features? These are all questions you should be aware for your tax planning.\nHere are two articles for your reference: http://www.journalofaccountancy.com/News/20137097.htm\nhttp://www.journalofaccountancy.com/News/20137142.htm.\nYou are here: Home Resources/Publications U.S. Tax Law Resources Effects of 2013 Fiscal Cliff Act & Tax Planning",

        "raw_content": "One of the exceptions to intellectual property infringement in many legal systems is that someone can generally recondition and repair goods and sell the reconditioned items without infringing the intellectual property rights of the original manufacturer, even when reconditioning is prohibited \u2013 this is usually a result of exhaustion of rights. The classic case involved the recovering of patented convertible-car roofs Aro Manufacturing Co. v. Convertible Top Replacement Co. 365 U.S. 336 (1961). Other cases have involved refilling disposable cameras with film.\nSince consumables from a high proportion of the revenue derived from products such as laser printers, packaging equipment, etc., considerable litigation surrounds this issue. The general principle is that unless the reconditioning requires the use of a patented process or components, it is usually legal. Care should also be taken to ensure that prohibitions on reconditioning or requirements that original manufacturer consumables be used does not constitute illegal tying and patent misuse.

        "title": "Iran Nuclear Deal \u2013 Is Daniel 8 about to be fulfilled? | The Cloak of Antichrist",
        "raw_content": "Posted by Jack Smith | Jul 21, 2015 | Bible prophecy, Current news, Daniel, Egypt, Iran, Israel, Saudi Arabia | 2 |\nI have learned something about politics: politicians know how to \u201cspin\u201d a loss into a victory. Was the Iran nuclear deal a victory for the P5 +1 team (United States, Russia, China, Britain, France, plus Germany)1 or for Iran? I suspect we will not know the answer for some time. Rarely, however, is there truly a \u201cwin-win\u201d agreement (as Iran\u2019s President Rouhani stated). I must say that the look on Iran President Rouhani\u2019s face was quite a bit more festive than that of President Obama as he stood behind the official White House podium. I can\u2019t say that I\u2019ve seen pictures of Americans (or Israelis) dancing in the streets\u2013 only Iranians. Of course, since the agreement released over $100 billion in oil revenue frozen in foreign banks, I imagine Americans would be dancing in the streets if the tables were turned. There is one little problem that remains for the Iranian citizenry: how do they know they will ever benefit from the $100 billion? Iranian leadership has been financing its Shia Islamist proxy-cells all over the Middle East, all-the-while its billions have been frozen and its unemployment rate has soared to a high of 14.7% (26.9% for youth) and inflation to 40%. If Iran used its billions to finance Hezbollah (Shia) in Lebanon, President Al-Assad\u2019s Shia forces in Syria, the Houthis (Shia) in Yemen, HAMAS (Sunni Islamist) in Gaza (only at times), Shias in Bahrain, and Shias in Iraq (now leading the effort against ISIS in Iraq and northern Syria), why should anyone expect the financial windfall to make its way to the people on the streets of Iran? In fact, Iran\u2019s Shia proxies surround the Middle East (see map in orange, except Russia which is an ally not a proxy) and the cost to finance their military activities has been estimated in the billions per year. Quoting Jonathan Spyer in the Middle East Forum:\n\u201cThe ending of sanctions on the IRGC, and more broadly the likely imminent freeing of up to $150 billion in frozen revenue, will enable Iran to massively increase its aid to its long list of regional clients and proxies. Iran today is heavily engaged in at least five conflict arenas in the region.\u201d Read more.\nThe financial windfall is only beginning for Iran, according to many sources. As the doors are opened to the world\u2019s corporate giants, so will the tide of favor among the nations of the world. We should expect a groundswell of favor, including the P5 +1 nations. They have every reason to favor Iran. To do otherwise might undermine the prospects of the nuclear agreement working, and as we all know, politicians all have a legacy to build and protect. If the nuclear agreement begins to crack, they will do everything to ignore the cracks until the cracks are fissures of destruction. Of course, it will be too late then and legacy will not matter. By that time, the descriptors in Revelation 18 of a nuclear holocaust will have such a global impact that people will be more interested in simply surviving than figuring out who did it and why.\nThere really are only two sides of the road in this matter \u2014 Iran (and its new bedfellows (P5 +1)) on one side and Israel, Saudi Arabia, and Egypt (and the Gulf Cooperation Council) on the other. Even if we were take a more magnanimous view of P5 +1\u2019s ability to monitor and react if Iran fails to perform, the result will likely be the same \u2014 nuclear holocaust, whether Iran pulls the trigger or Israel does \u2014 a lot can happen in the ten years the nuclear agreement is in place.\nHere is what Israel had to say about the nuclear agreement and its impact on the Middle East:\nNew York Times: Iran Deal Denounced by Netanyahu as \u2018Historic Mistake\u2019\nBy ISABEL KERSHNERJULY 14, 2015\nJERUSALEM \u2014 Furiously denouncing the accord to limit Iran\u2019s nuclear program on Tuesday as \u201ca historic mistake,\u201d Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that Israel would not be bound by the agreement and warned of negative repercussions in a region already riven with rivalries and armed conflict. Read more.\nCNN reported an unidentified Saudi official who stated that the deal marked a \u201cmonumental historical miscalculation.\u201d The Telegraph ran this article:\nBy Richard Spencer, Middle East Editor and Robert Tait, Jerusalem 8:53PM BST 14 Jul 2015\n\u2026 Saudi Arabia regards Shia Iran as a competitor for leadership in the Muslim world, and sees its hand behind many of the region\u2019s conflicts. The two are supporting opposite sides in wars in Syria and Yemen, while Saudi Arabia and its Gulf allies fear Iran\u2019s influence among their own Shia populations.\nI must admit that most sources I read indicate America left the negotiating table with little more than \u201cthe shirt on its back,\u201d while skillful Iranian negotiators gave Iranians something to cheer about. One expert writing for the Middle East Forum put it this way:\nIran Nuclear Deal Makes War More Likely, by Efraim Inbar, July 15, 2015\n\u2026 The Obama administration was willing to offer almost unlimited concessions to the skillful Iranian negotiators, ignoring all its own deadlines and red lines. It is clear that President Obama was desperate for a deal in order to leave office with a \u201clegacy.\u201d\nWhile Washington congratulates itself on a \u201csuccessful\u201d result, what counts is the perceptions of the countries in the region. Alas, all countries in the region can only conclude that America is indeed weak. America has capitulated to Iran. Read more.\nDare we guess what President Bashar al-Assad of Syria had to say? As one of Iran\u2019s proxies (with a $1 billion line of credit from Iran), his statement should not surprise us:\nIn another message addressed to Iranian president Hassan Rouhani, Assad said: \u201cIn the name of the Syrian people, I congratulate you and the people of Iran on this historic achievement.\u201d Read more.\nThe 15 member United Nations Security Council approved the agreement on 7/20/15. Similarly, the European Union on 7/20/15. The U. S. congress has sixty days to do so; alas, at this point little can be done as the favor of the agreement is snowballing down the hill at a momentum unlikely to change. According to one source, the first negotiation on the nuclear agreement and the lifting of sanctions occurred in May, 2003, when Iranian officials submitted a list of agenda items for negotiation. Read more. That means the agreement has been in negotiation for the last twelve years! Who would dare attempt to stop it at this point?\nSo how do we process the events of the day with Scripture in hand? The first thing is to look at who is on whose side. Israel and Saudi Arabia are on the same side \u2014 not a good thing to be on the side of Israel in the end-of-days (Zechariah 12:2-3, Zechariah 14:2, Ezekiel 38:9-12, Revelation 11:2). Yes, Israel will ultimately be victorious (Ezekiel 38:18-19, 22-24) for the Lord will never desert His people. He has demonstrated His faithfulness in protecting the remnant beginning in the days of Jacob\u2019s sons in Canaan (then Egypt), continuing through the exile in Babylon, and the succeeding conflicts that scattered the Jews all over the world, yet returned them in 1948 by act of the United Nations. God will certainly not forget His promise to Abraham (Genesis 12:3, 17:7-8) by removing His protection in the end-of-day (Genesis 45:7, Ezra 9:8, Isaiah 10:20-22, Isaiah 11:11, Zechariah 8:11-12, Romans 9:27).\nSaudi Arabia, the #1 exporter of the world\u2019s crude has aligned itself with its unnatural ally, Israel, against Iran. In my book, Islam the Cloak of Antichrist, I propose that Saudi Arabia will be attacked by ten of its Muslim neighbors \u2014 led by a Shia nation, i.e., Iran, in fulfillment of Revelation 17:12-14. Saudi Arabia, the birthplace of Islam, is destroyed in a nuclear holocaust as described in Revelation 18:8. I interpret Iran and Shia Islam to be the power through whom the wrath of God is poured out upon the world (Joel 3:2). The destruction of Saudi Arabia launches the Tribulation, and Israel is overcome subsequent to this event (although timing is never clear in interpreting end-of-days Scripture.)\nWe could likely add Egypt to align with Saudi Arabia and Israel in the end-of-days, at least so long as Egypt\u2019s present leader, Abdel Fattah el-Sisi (Read more), continues to lead. President al-Sisi made some revolutionary statements about Islam at the beginning of the year when he declared to a group of leading clerics at Al Azhar University in Cairo, regarded by many as the world\u2019s leading Sunni Muslim institution of learning, that the only hope for Islam was a revolution in its ideology, the ideology that created an \u201cISIS.\u201d Read more. And, as I recently posted, Egypt is the last country to align with in the end-of-days. Perhaps that is because the reform in Islamist ideology proposed by President al-Sisi will go further than he expected but not far enough. Read more.\nThere is another passa ge that possibly is being fulfilled in the modern-day nuclear agreement\u2013 Daniel 8:19 NASB, 23-25 NASB. This passage describes the \u201cfinal period of indignation, for it pertains to the appointed time of the end.\u201d (Daniel 8:19 NASB). The passage further refines its time of application to \u201cthe latter period of their rule when the transgressors have run their course.\u201d The \u201ctransgressors\u201d are identified as Media-Persia and Greece (Daniel 8:20-21 NASB), the two empires that overcame the Jews in 535 BC (through defeat of Babylon) and 332 BC (through the defeat of Media-Persia), respectively. However, the \u201ctransgressors\u201d have \u201crun their course\u201d (NASB translation) so these empires have completed their dominion at the time of fulfillment in the end-of-days. The \u201cking\u201d that arises in the tribulation period will apparently be from one of these two empires, i.e., Persia or Greece (he cannot arise from both, and even though Greece is the last of the two empires to survive, historically, this does not require us to name Greece as the nation from which this king will arise; both empires have \u201crun their course.\u201d) The king will be \u201cinsolent\u201d (he does not listen to others, his view is the only one that matters; basically, he is a real hard guy to work with). He is \u201cskilled in intrigue\u201d (ESV translates \u201cmaster of intrigue\u201d). This phrase is one of the reasons bible scholars identify the Antichrist as a smooth talker, a gifted and charismatic person, and able to easily influence others. The phrase is further reinforced by verse 25 which states, \u201cAnd through his shrewdness he will cause deceit to succeed by his influence\u2026\u201d In other words, the \u201cking\u201d will succeed because he has great influence on others. His influence will cause mighty men to be deceived, and because they are deceived, many people will be destroyed. The text states, \u201cHe will destroy to an extraordinary degree \u2026 He will destroy mighty men and the holy people\u2026\u201d (Daniel 8:25 NASB). The \u201cmighty men\u201d must be leaders of countries. To destroy the mighty men is to destroy the countries they represent. The \u201choly people\u201d could be Jews or Christians, although I interpret them to be the Jewish people based upon Isaiah 62:12 NASB, Isaiah 63:18 NASB, Daniel 12:7 NASB.\nIt is important that we notice the phrase \u201cwhile they are at ease.\u201d I propose that they are \u201cat ease\u201d because the nuclear agreement, having been ratified, puts world leaders and their people in a false sense of security. The Middle East has successfully been calmed for a period, the nuclear arms race threatened by Saudi Arabia has somehow been abated through the treaty. It has set the world at ease. Iran is secretly preparing the materials and delivery system to successfully deliver nuclear explosives, at least so far as the \u201cinsolent king\u201d is concerned.\nPerhaps this king is the only one aware of this plan? Even negotiators on his behalf are unaware of what his plans are. If that be the case, the profile of the insolent leader could not be more appropriately filled than by the Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. The Ayatollah is the supreme leader in Iran, the spiritual leader in a Shia state that considers him to be divinity, literally. He is the final word in Iran. He said this after the agreement was signed:\n\u201cWhether the deal is approved or disapproved, we will never stop supporting our friends in the region and the people of Palestine, Yemen, Syria, Iraq, Bahrain and Lebanon,\u201d Khamenei said at the end of prayers marking the end of the Islamic holy month of Ramadan. \u201cEven after this deal, our policy toward the arrogant U.S. will not change.

        "title": "JFK: 50 years later \u00ab The Carroll News",
        "raw_content": "As many of you know, tomorrow marks the 50th anniversary of the assassination of our nations 35th president, John F. Kennedy. In 2013, this seems to be nearing the realm of ancient history, particularly to my generation and even my parents (they were just infants at the time).\nThese days, Kennedy himself seems to be more associated with his notorious personal life rather than the accomplishments he made during his presidency. But for many years, especially pre-9/11, the JFK assassination was a wound that seemed to be embedded deep in the mind of millions of Americans.\nIf you listen to anyone who came of age during the 1960s, they will most likely tell you that the decade began on Nov. 22, 1963. It introduced Americans to a decade that would be extremely tumultuous. In some ways it seemed a little confusing from a brief historical outlook as to why Kennedy\u2019s assassination had such an important impact. After all, three presidents \u2013 Abraham Lincoln, James Garfield and William McKinley \u2013 had all been slain beforehand. But no one seemed to react to these killings the same way they did to JFK\u2019s.\nOne reason for this is rather obvious: Kennedy had brought a great amount of change not seen in The White House before. He was the first Catholic to ever be elected president, thus ending many years of prejudice directed towards people who did not identify as Protestant. Plus his young age did not make him seem like a likely president who would die in office (although had people known of his chronic health problems that may have been different).\nAnother reason that made the JFK assassination seem so critical to our nation\u2019s mindset simply had to with where we stood as a country. When other presidential assassinations had occurred, the U.S. was not yet a world power. As a nation, we were still trying to solve domestic issues with ourselves, let alone with other countries. So when our leaders were killed, only we really knew about it, the rest of the world was rather passive towards it.\nBut by 1963, the U.S. was a dominant actor on the world stage, although sometimes sharing this role with the Soviet Union. It gave our nation a poor image when the leader of the free world was killed by one of his fellow Americans. It seemed as if in that sense the situation was no different than when Diem was killed in South Vietnam just a few weeks earlier. Finally, there was also the same fear that this could have been a declaration of war if the perpetrator had lived in the Soviet Union.\nThe U.S. presidency itself was also a much more influential job in the world than it had been in the 19th and early 20th centuries. The president seemed as if he was invincible. So when the holder of this powerful position was violently killed all of the sudden, it made the American people suddenly feel vulnerable. This realization would only be further strengthened by the riots and other political assassinations that occurred throughout the decade. Were the protests and rebellions of the 1960s likely to have happened had Kennedy lived? Most likely, but the widespread violence that came with it may have been fanned by his murder.\nOverall, this is why the assassination of JFK had such an affect on the American people. It was a wake up call for Americans that despite our great achievements, we are still just as vulnerable as any third world country. But if there was anything we did show from this event, it was that we would still persevere through tragedy and stand strong.",

        "title": "England/Wales - June, 2017",
        "raw_content": "Touring England and Wales\nWindsor - Oxford, Stratford - York - Liverpool, Chester, Llandudno (2 days), Snowdonia - Ludlow, Cardiff - Bath, London\nAfter booking a 12 day cruise around the British Isles, Marjorie decided that we needed a longer stay to amortize the cost of the flights and the 7 hour time change. She found an interesting bus tour of central England / Wales by Royal Irish Tours. We had visited Britain several times in the past on cruises and a land tour, and done many port days in Ireland and Scotland but only one of the stops was in England (Liverpool). We had also done Dover and Southampton, but only as cruise terminations, so you can't really count those. This tour would take us to locations that we had never been to before (except Liverpool). The timing of the tour was ideal, covering the week before the cruise, and ending one day before the cruise began. You can see the diary for the cruise portion of our trip in our British Isles diary.\nWe had 23 people in our group so we kind of rattled around the 45 person bus. It was nice having all of the extra room. The travellers were all Canadian mostly from Ontario. We were the only ones from Calgary.\nDays 1,2 (Jun 9,10) - Flight to Windsor\nWe left home at 4:00 PM and arrived at Christina's at about 5:00. We dropped off our car and Christina drove us to the airport around 5:45. Check-in was quite quick and there was no line at all at security. We shared a sandwich at Subway and were to the gate by 6:45. Our flight to London Heathrow was ontime at 8:10 and we arrived at LHR about noon the next day. We went through British customs (huge lineup) and grabbed our luggage from the carousel. As we exited the secured area, there was the shuttle driver from the MacDonald Windsor Hotel waiting for us - our names on his sign. The shuttle took about half an hour and dropped us off at our hotel in Windsor. We had only 30 minutes to shave and freshen up before leaving at 2:15 on a tour of Windsor castle. The castle was right across the street from the hotel so we didn't have far to walk.\nWe stopped at the entrance to the castle grounds and were given a talk about the history of the castle. Then we were let loose to wander on our own. One wing of the castle was the Queen's residence, and the flag on the tower showed that she was currently living at the castle. She didn't come out to see us. We toured through the royal apartments, the \"doll house\", some other buildings and St. George's Chapel. The chapel is the burial place of a veritable \"who's who\" of British kings, queens and other royalty. From one of the ramparts one could see Eton College in the distance. Our tiredness was catching up with us so we walked back to our hotel, arriving about 5:00. At 6:00 we had our \"welcome\" dinner at the hotel and formally met our travel mates. Some had come from the previous Scotland tour, while others like us had just flown in. Afterwards we did a bit of a walk around the hotel area to work off our dinner. Then it was back to the hotel, pop a sleeping pill and to bed. It sure felt great to lie down after two days of travelling!\nDay 3 (Jun 11) - A visit to Oxford and Stratford\nToday was the start of our traveling protocol. Bags packed and out in the hallway by 8:00 AM, down to breakfast at 8:00, then onto the bus by 9:00. We were up at 7:00 still feeling buzzed from our long travel day yesterday. It was going to be a warm, sunny day. We had a good buffet breakfast and were on the bus ontime and ready for the day. The drive to Oxford took about an hour, mainly on a motorway. We had a bit of drive through Oxford finally stopping a short distance from Merton College. Oxford University consists of 36 separate colleges (like faculties) and Merton is the oldest (13th century) and most famous. The colleges were spread out through the city of Oxford, so there was no definitive contiguous area that \"was the university\". We walked through the Merton courtyards and were lectured on the various buildings and past students. Afterwards we walked out of the college and onto the commercial streets of Oxford. We were given an hour to explore and have lunch. Our wanderings took us to Burger King which was too much to resist. Then it was back on the bus heading to our next adventure - Stratford (upon Avon).\nWe continued on towards Stratford through the Cotswolds. It was beautiful countryside. Outside of Stratford we stopped at the famous Anne Hathaway's cottage. The cottage had been much amended since Anne's days, and her original cottage was just a small portion of the cottage extant today. We toured through the cottage and folks in period costume explained the rooms. There were some interesting gardens by the cottage - herbs, veggies and flowers. Then we boarded the bus and drove into Stratford. We did a walking tour of the main street, and visited the house where Shakespeare was born. Like Anne's cottage, the house had been amended over the years. The town had taken full advantage of this famous son, with several theatres and many monuments to both the bard and his cast of characters. We checked into our hotel (Alveston Manor) and headed out for dinner and evening \"on our own\". Marjorie had read up on the \"Dirty Duck\" pub so we tried it for Sunday dinner. We split a beef rib pot roast dinner and it was plenty for the two of us. On the way back to the hotel we wandered along the Avon River. The public market was still going and lots of people were out for a stroll. A lovely day.\nDay 4 (Jun 12) - The long road to York\nToday was our longest drive - from Stratford to York. Unlike the past few days, it was mostly cloudy. We were up at 7:00, bags out at 8:00, breakfast at 8:00 and onto the bus by 9:00. We drove north on the motorway and arrived in York about 2:00 in the afternoon. We checked into the York Hilton (the hotel was right across the street from York castle). We were given until 3:00 to find lunch. We headed to a fish & chip shop (Drakes) that the guide had recommendedand and split a senior's portion of cod and chips - excellent. At 3:00 we met outside the hotel for a walking tour of Old York. We walked down \"The Shambles\", the most famous street / area in York. Lots of history there. Then we popped into York Minster (formally known as the Cathedral and Metropolitical Church of Saint Peter in York) for a look-see at an amazing Cathedral. The Cathedral was built in the 12th century on the site of several earlier churches which were destroyed over the centuries. We were given some free time on our own to explore Old York, meeting back at the hotel for a group dinner at 6:00. After dinner we explored the area nearby the hotel and stumbled upon a group of costumed men dancing to several musicians. It was quite entertaining. Then we hiked back to the hotel and went to bed.\nNote: When I got home I googled the dancing men and it turns out that they are morris dancers. This form of dance orignated in England in the 15th century and now has adherents all over the world.\nDay 5 (Jun 13) - Across England to Llandudno\nWe were up at 6:00, with bags out at 7:00 and breakfast at 7:00. We had to be on the bus by 8:00 ready for our drive across England to Liverpool. (York is east coast, Liverpool is west coast). The drive was interesting - some motorways, some countryside. We arrived in Liverpool about 11:00. We had a bit of a bus tour through the city, and then were dropped off at the waterfront near the cruise ship terminal. It was a grey, cool day, so not the best for photographs. The city had done a load of work on the old industrial area which now supported souvenir shops, restaurants and musems. We had been here before on a cruise in 2009 and I couldn't remember most of the new development, so it must have been completed very recently. I had underdressed with only a t-shirt, so we popped into one of the shops and I bought a Liverpool sweatshirt.. We did two museums (Beatles and Maritime) which were both free! At the top floor of the maritime museum was a recommended restaurant so we had lunch and rested our legs.\nAfter lunch, we wandered the Albert Dock area. We walked to the cruise terminal and saw a large cruise ship docked there. We eventually chanced upon a National Express office. We took the opportunity to purchase our tickets for the Gatwick airport to Southampton bus trip coming up in a few days. One less thing to worry about. Then it was onto the bus for the short trip across the Mersey River to Chester. Before long we were in Chester and were let out in the old part of the city. We had been to Chester in 2009 and did a city tour. The old town really hadn't changed a lot. However,this time we were met by a Roman soldier who toured us around the strreets giving a Roman slant on the history and living conditions. It was an interesting viewpoint and I quite enjoyed the tour. We saw a number of Roman artifacts throughout the tour that I couldn't remember from our previous tour which had concentrated more on the Medieval architecture and the cathedral. Nice to do something different. We were then given some time to wander on our own and it was nice seeing the familiar area that we had tramped through in 2009. I really am fond of the half-timbered buildings. When our time was up, we returned to the pickup location to board the bus and we struck out for Wales and the town of Llandudno.\nThe drive through northern Wales was wonderful. Lots of green fields and sheep. We arrived in Llandudno about 6:00 PM. It was a tourist town with a row of hotels along the huge cresent beach. Our hotel was the St. George's and was lovely. We would be there for two nights. We had a group dinner at 6:30 in the hotel and then had the evening on our own. Our plan for the evening was to attend a Welsh men's choir in a nearby church at 8:00. However, the meal really dragged on (slow service). We ended up leaving the dinner before dessert was served and just made it to the church on time. The choir was excellent and I knew at least half of the songs, so we really enjoyed it. We wandered back to the hotel and then headed for bed.\nDay 6 (Jun 14) - Around Snowdonia\nWe were up at 6:30 with breakfast at 8:00. No \"bags out\" as we were staying at the St. George's tonight as well. Today we would do a loop trip coming back to Llandudno by dinnertime. We had over an hour until breakfast, so did a long walk along the beach and hiked out onto the pleasure pier. It was eerily quiet along the pier - all of the rides were shutdown in the early morning. The tide was way out, so the beach seemed really huge. We had breakfast and then were on the bus by 9:00. The tour started with a drive along the north coast of Wales through the town of Conwy where we had a preliminary glimpse of the famous castle that we would be visiting later in the day. We continued along the coast until we reached Caernarfon (Carnarvan) Castle in the village of Caernarfon. We stopped in the main square right across from the castle. We didn't enter the castle, it was more of a photo stop. The castle was one of many built by Edward I, this one around 1280 AD. We spent about 1/2 hour there and then reboarded the bus. The driver circumnavigated most of the castle so we could see it from every direction.\nBack aboard the bus we drove south alongside the island of Anglesey, soon arriving at the seaside port of Porthmadog about 11:00 AM. Here we were to board a steam train to take us into the heart of Snowdonia. Our tickets for the Ffestiniog narrow gauge railway were for 11:30 so we had time to wander the village and buy some sandwiches for lunch on the train. We boarded the train and ended up sharing a cabin for four with another interesting couple. We ate our lunch as we rumbled through the countryside. Our view was of fields and villages - beautiful. The train had stops at Minffordd and Tan-y-bwlch where we could get out to stretch our legs. After 1.5 hours we finally arrived at the terminus village of Blaenau Ffestiniog. It was a wonderful train ride. We reboarded our tour bus and headed off for the sights of Snowdonia.\nSnowdonia is a rugged, mountainous area in the northwest corner of Wales. The highest peak is Mount Snowdon. The surrounding hills are rich in slate which supported a huge slate industry in the 1800's. However, that market disappeared and now only the holes in the hills remain. We passed many slopes jagged with slate and could imagine the life of the people working the mines. A good portion of the area is pasture now with sheep the main grazer. We stopped at the highest point on the road - about 3,000 ft - not a great height to us Rocky Mountaineers. There we were given time to wander around, looking down green valleys, and up the rocky slopes to the peaks. There was a small village (ie. 4 or 5 buildings) and I think there was a train terminus for a line that connects to the Ffestiniog railway that we just got off. Then we reboarded the bus to descend from the mountains and return to the north sea coast.\nWe finished our Snowdonian loop tour back at Conwy castle, which we had seen in the distance this morning on our drive to Caernarfon castle. This time we stoppped at the castle and were given an hour to wander the castle grounds. The castle was built by Edward I in the 14th century. Our tour included admission to the castle so we strolled through the ruins imagining what it was like in the 14th century. We had lot of time so explored a bit of Conwy village outside of the castle too. Back on bus we drove back to Llandudno, arriving at our hotel about 6:00. Our guide recommended the Cottage Loaf pub for dinner, a short walk from the hotel. We couldn't find it at first, so asked a sales clerk in a closeby store. She not only told us where the pub was (hidden in a nearby alley) but also explained that her father used to own the pub (small town!). Marjorie had a humungous burger, and I had a steak and ale pie. Excellent! Afterwards we wandered back to the hotel and went to bed early.\nDay 7 (Jun 15) - Through Wales to Cardiff\nToday we would be traversing Wales from the north to the south. It was a mostly sunny day, great for taking pictures. We were up at 6:30, with bags out / breakfast at 7:30. We were on the bus at 8:30 and waved goodbye to Llandudno, our home for two nights. The drive south took us first to the village of Bodelwyddan, noted for a lovely little church (St. Margaret of Antioch, also known as the Marble Church) where 80 or so Canadian servicemen are buried in a section of the church cemetery. All of them died in 1919 while waiting for transport back to Canada at the end of the war - killed by the Swine Flu epidemic. How ironic that they survived the horrors of the trenches only to be killed by a virus! Being an all-Canadian trour group, our guide deviated a bit to take us to this unscheduled visit. The graves were well tended in neat rows, with red roses and flowering shrubs between the headstones. Back on the bus we continued our southward journey stopping next for a photo at a green valley lookout high in the mountains.\nThen it was on to the town of Llangollen. We had been here several years ago and the town looked just the same. We were given 40 minutes to wander around the town center . We didn't take many photos as we had done so the previous time. After another southerly drive we nipped over the Welsh / England border to the villlage of Ludlow. Over the centuries the border was fluid, so Ludlow had been English and Welsh at different times. We were given 2 hours to explore the town and have lunch. We wandered through the quaint streets, ending up in the town square. In the heart of the city is Ludlow castle, built in the 11th century. We walked over to the castle, but there was a charge to go in. Instead, we went into a tea house that overlooked the castle and had a great salad and sandwich for lunch. Afterwards we went back to the town square where there was a large market going on. There were lots of fruits and veggies, as well as handicrafts. Then we were back on the bus again and heading towards Cardiff.\nLeaving Ludlow, we were also leaving England as we crossed the border back into Wales. The next stop on our southbound journey was at the ruins of Tintern Abbey at the edge of the village of Tintern. The abbey was built in the 12th century and fell into ruins in the 16th century (thanks to Henry VIII). We were given 30 minutes to wander around the abbey grounds and, of course, take photos. Our final leg of the journey took us to The New House Country Hotel just a few miles out from Cardiff, in the surrounding hills. From the hotel we could see the city in the distance. We arrived at the hotel about 6:00. The tour included a group dinner in Cardiff, at the new Civic Center with live music. However, Marjorie had been fighting a bad cold and didn't feel up to it, so we waved goodbye to the tour group and instead had a quiet dinner at the hotel. Talking to some of the group the next day, it sounded like everyone really enjoyed the evening. I think they returned about 10:30.\nDay 8 (Jun 16) - Drive to Bath, then London\nToday was the final full day of the tour. Our goal today was to drive across mid-southern England to London where our tour would end. It was a long drive, so a stop was planned in the city of Bath. We were up at 6:30 with the bags and breakfast routine at 7:00. We were on to the bus at 8:00 and headed off on the 1.5 hour drive to Bath. At Bath, we did a bus tour of the city - everything was a grey/pink sandstone (by city ordinance?). We had pre-arranged tickets for 11:00 to visit the ruins of the roman baths. The city has done a wonderful job of creating a museum encompasing (and highlighting) the ruins of the original roman baths. We spent about an hour touring the museum, then were given 2 hours to wander the city and find ourselves a luncheon trough. We walked around the old city area and along the Avon River, and found a pizza place for lunch. Back at the meeting place, the bus picked us up just after 2:00 and we headed off to London. The trip would normally take about 2.5 hours, but the traffic was dreadful and we didn't arrive at our London hotel until 6:00 (4:00 hours!). I do fault the tour company for not stopping for a break at one of the motorway service centers as 4 hours non-stop was a test of our senior's bladders! Marjorie and I weren't interested in a restaurant meal after our pizza lunch so, after checking in to the Hilton London Metropole, we popped across the street and bought a sandwich, crisps and a drink package at Mark's and Spencer's, which we ate in our room. We read a bit then headed to bed.\nDay 9 (Jun 17) - Leaving London for Southampton\nToday was our \"connect\" day where we would reposition for our next leg - a British Isles cruise on the Caribbean Princess. We were up at 6:30 with bags out at 7:00. At breakfast we said goodbye to our tour buddies. Of the original 23 members, 2 had abandoned ship in Liverpool and 4 were staying on in London. The remaining 17 of us were hopping the 8:00 AM Gatwick shuttle, most to fly home. The trip took about 1:15 with lighter traffic than yesterday. Along the way we went past the blackened shell of the Grenfell tower block. The fire had been less than a week ago. Not a pretty landmark! We arrived at the airport by 9:30 and discovered that the National Express bus station was just across the street from the terminal building. We had an hour wait for the 10:30 bus that we had booked a few days ago in Liverpool. We boarded the bus and headed off on our next adventure. It had been a very nice land tour .",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Articles \u00bb Death by terror is the fate of Hazaras in Pakistan\nDeath by terror is the fate of Hazaras in Pakistan\nBy Allabaksh\nHazaras in Pakistan face a double jeopardy\u2014they are in minority and are Shias. They are therefore easy targets of extremist groups and their patrons, the intelligence services, who view them as `enemies` because of their looks and origin.\nThe Hazaras are as much Pakistani as others but live like unwanted outsiders, bearing humiliations and threats every moment of their living existence. Other Pakistanis do not care much about what happens to the Hazaras who are forced to live in the ghettos of Quetta, a life riddled with fear and impoverishment.\nIn a long and scathing reportage, the Pakistani English daily, Dawn, summed up the general apathy thus: \u201c In the corridors of power in Balochistan, Hazara persecution means little to others. When a Hazara gets gunned down or when their homes are bombed, it simply registers as life as usual for most in power.\u201c\nSo, it was not surprising that when early October, three Shia Hazaras were gunned down in Quetta, there was hardly any whimper of protest or anguish among other Pakistanis. Before these brutal killings, a family of four Hazaras in Mastung had met the same fate. For years and decades, the Hazaras have been at the receiving end of the state\u2019s brutality or callous indifference. This is what Dawn said on the recent killings: \u201c In the violence against civilians in the country, the repeated targeting of Hazaras in Balochistan stands out as a particularly grim failure of the state. \u201c\nThe Sunni extremist groups look at the Hazaras as infidels and do everything possible to either drive them out of Pakistan or force them to take shelter in ghettoes of Quetta. In Quetta, the Hazara community are concentrated in two localities in the city\u2019s eastern and western sides: Marriabad and Hazara Town. They rarely dare to venture out of these ghettos because their distinct looks make them easy targets. Like the three Hazara vegetable vendors who were gunned down while seeking customers on a city road early October.\nNot that the state could not tackle these extremist groups targeting Hazaras and other minorities. In most of the cases, the state\u2019s complicity become apparent in the failure to prosecute any of the killers; the killers roam about freely and their patron groups operate openly in cities and villages across Pakistan with impunity. The state, more specifically the army, plays another duplicitous game with the Hazaras. Every time, there is a killing of the Hazaras in and around Quetta, the security forces launch a manhunt targeting the Baloch people, charging them, wrongly of course, of the killings. For the army, such killings offer double benefit\u2014they allow minorities like the Hazaras to be eliminated by their proxy agents of terror while using the opportunity to target the Baloch. This has been going on for so long that it has now become a standard operating protocol in Balochistan.\nFor the Hazaras, increasingly targeted by the extremist groups, often with the direct or indirect consent of the armed forces, there are only two ways out\u2014flee or get killed. \u2018\nThe exodus of the Hazaras first began in the late 90s when they came under an unrelenting wave of targeted violence. It was a trickle at first and since then, over the years, close to 70,000 Hazaras have abandoned their home for distant lands like Indonesia and Australia where life is relatively safer but not living. Those who held well-paid jobs in the health, education and government sectors and ran flourishing businesses are forced to do menial jobs in their land of refuge. The journey itself is fraught with great peril, hundreds perishing on the sea journey to Australia, Indonesia or Europe. The number of such tragic deaths is around 800.\nWith the government failing to provide any modicum of security to its Hazara citizens, the extremist elements became bolder over the years, openly threatening the community. For instance, during the Asif Ali Zardari government, in 2013 extremist groups threatened the Hazaras to leave Quetta by 2013 or get killed. A Human Rights Watch report from that time states: \u201cThere is no travel route, no shopping trip, no school, or no work commute that is safe for the Hazaras.\u201d\nThe Dawn report pointed out that since 2008, when the number of attacks against the Hazara community became high again, Hazaras began to sell their houses and businesses and became part of the global illegal human trafficking racket\u2014many ending up in Malayasia and Indonesia where they paid 4000 to 5000 US dollars to get on a boat to Australia or New Zealand.\nWith the world-wide restrictions on refugees growing, it is becoming even more difficult for the Hazaras to find a refuge. For them, home is where the enemy is and outside is a world wary and suspicious of frightened people fleeing their homes. As an elder Hazara told a writer, all that is left for Pakistan government to do is to buy their homes and properties and businesses, put them all in a ship and push it out into the sea. He called it a Nowhere Ship.\nToday, in Pakistan, where the Hazaras over the generations, have built a small but progressive community, they have become the No Where People\nPrevious: Pak Army must answer for Sufi shrine attacks\nNext: Corrupt Sharif in the Land of the Pure",

        "raw_content": "Photographs: 1: 2: 3\nThe 'Boot and Shoe' public house stands adjacent to Kidwelly's town wall and southern Gatehouse. The walls were built to protect the borough around 1280-81 as the result of a grant of murage from the king, Edward I, to Patrick de Chaworth, the lord of Kidwelly. The gatehouse was built about 1300 and consisted of a ground floor and two upper stories. It contained the shire-hall and a prison. In 1403 the gatehouse was burnt and badly damaged, when Henry Dwnn leading Owain Glyn Dwr's army of local Welshmen and French allies, attacked Kidwelly.\nThe present building was in existence before 1800 and the owner of the 'Boot and Shoe' at the time was a man called John Thomas. In 1801 he leased from Kidwelly Corporation, \"A piece of land and old wall on the north side of the bailey gate adjoining to the end of the dwelling house of said John Thomas called boot and shoe, upon part whereof the said John Thomas had lately erected a cellar and upon another part thereof he had lately rebuilt a pigstye and then repaired another in ruins. Also a spot of land or garden 43ft. in length and 40ft in breadth.\" The 'Boot' would seem to date from about 1770 to 1790, starting its life as a dwelling house. A report from the borough records indicates that it was in use as a public house by 1816 or earlier. The report stated that the \"Pistle or water spout and receiver of water at the back of the house called the 'Boot and Shoe' is dangerous to horse and foot passengers.\" The source of this water was the stream called Bushey Lake which had once fed the castle moat, ran down a ditch on the western side of Water St. and Ditch Street (present day New Street). Old photographs show the stream as late as 1910. A conduit ran off the stream opposite the 'Boot' feeding the drinking trough. The old pump still standing outside the pub may well have been fed from the same source.\nThe pub is included in a list of inns licensed by the borough in 1836 when the license was in the name of Mary Thomas. In 1849 Margaret Thomas was listed as licensee, while from 1891 to 1906 Thomas Gower held the license.\nIn 1866 an important development took place. The Wesleyan Methodists acquired land near the town bridge to build a new chapel. The area had held the town's cattle pound, however, a new site was found for it just below the 'Boot' where a weekly livestock mart was held. There is no doubt that this development was welcomed, by the licensee of the \u201cBoot and Shoe\u201d.",

        "title": "...on pampers, programming & pitching manure: Clarity in the Used-Games-Sales debate?",
        "raw_content": "A recent post on the Freakonomics blog, regarding the debate behind the hypothesized positive/negative impact of used book sales on sales of new books, may help shed some light on the used games sales debate.\nThe arguments in both industries are similar:\nAnti-used: If customers can re-sell their media, they end up paying less for it, and it cannibalized new media sales, as the second and subsequent buyers didn't have to buy new. Furthermore, the channel makes all the used-media money, with copyright holder getting none of it.\nPro-used: If customers can re-sell their media, they use the proceeds to pour back into the market and thus buy more. This makes up for the cannibalization, and in turn, artists also benefit from wider distribution and exposure.\nThe problem with BOTH arguments is that it has been SO hard to definitively prove either case in an open market.\nANyhow the blog post links to this paper by some folks at NYU and Carnegie Mellon, which is the best analysis I've seen of it to date. At least it seems so. I confess I haven't even tried to grok all the math.\nAnyhow, their conclusion supports the 'pro' side of the argument, concluding that cannibalization is insignificant, and that used book sales may actually help grow the new book market, since a used book is more likely to retain value to the customer.\nWould be interesting for someone to apply the same model(s) to the used games space and prove the same thing.\nHow about the argument that someone buying a used book/game might be pulled into the franchise and they buy new? For example, someone buys a used \"DaVinci Code\" book, likes it, then goes out and buys other Dan Brown books new? Although I don't buy used games, I have bought an older title as a \"Greatest Hits\" (eg. Sly Cooper), liked it, and then when 2 came out, bought it new at full price. It seems to be that in those cases, one used book/game could generate 2-3 times the revenue for the authors. Of course the other side is that the person may also just buy the rest as used too...\nI buy used and new.\nUsed is harder - you have to wait, you have to search for titles (especially popular ones), and in general you are paying a good proportion of the retail price for the used title if it IS popular. I think this is a serious barrier to rampant cannibalization... but keeps market forces in play to keep prices down.\nJust like Jim, I have been pulled into (music and book) franchises by the availability of used cd/books... the same holds true for games. Oddworld is one of those that brought me back for more.\nSince there is a market for my old games, I often cull those that I tried and did not like (or have completed), get some money in return, and typically re-plunk that money down on titles - both used and new. If I had to keep everything I bought forever, I would much more stingy in my spending habits.",

        "raw_content": "When I was a patrol officer, I once was dispatched to take a report for a 7-year-old girl who had been sexually assaulted by her mom\u2019s boyfriend. The child\u2019s aunt brought her to the hospital and notified police after her niece made some comments about the male anatomy and sex to which the average 7-year-old would not be privy.\nThe little girl had to have a rape kit completed, which is used to collect evidence such as clothing fibers, hairs and bodily fluids, which might help identify an assailant and provide evidence during a criminal trial. It\u2019s an intrusive process that no one should have to endure \u2014 especially a little girl.\nAs I conducted a preliminary investigation, I couldn\u2019t help but notice that the little girl was laughing and playing with the toys that the hospital staff brought for her. She certainly didn\u2019t resemble a child who had been molested, and I secretly wondered if her aunt had misconstrued what she said or jumped to conclusions. After all, the girl didn\u2019t seem scared or outwardly afflicted.\nI followed that case to the end. As it turned out, the little girl\u2019s mother didn\u2019t believe her child. She vehemently defended her boyfriend, with whom she had been in a relationship for two months before allowing him to move in and babysit her daughter. The boyfriend was eventually arrested and charged.\nI would go on to respond to many similar cases. I learned very quickly that there are some common myths associated with sexual assault, and that the human psyche is very complex.\nOne might think that a victim of sexual assault would be fearful of their abuser, but quite frequently, that is not the case. Depending on how savvy the abuser is, there is a level of manipulation that is choreographed. Humiliation, shame and fear equal silence.\nOffenders reinforce these feelings by what they say and do to their victims. They use the shame and fear to bind the victim to them and isolate them from others who might help them. Victims are often terrified that they will not be believed and ashamed that they don\u2019t know how to stop the abuse. They often feel trapped between wanting the abuse to end and being terrified of other people learning what has been done to them. That fear can keep victims silent while the abuse continues. Seventy-five percent of victims never disclose abuse, keeping it a secret forever.\nSome victims remain silent because they don\u2019t have any proof of the abuse, which makes allegations their word against that of their abuser. While it is helpful to have physical evidence (which normally results from immediacy in reporting), it isn\u2019t always possible to obtain. That doesn\u2019t mean there cannot be a solid case for a conviction based on victim testimony.\nAnd though it might be difficult to understand, some victims defend their abuser and may even deny they are being abused. People react to trauma in different ways. It is not uncommon for victims to maintain contact with their abusers, because they might still feel affection for them even though they hate the abuse. This is especially prevalent when the abuser is a member of the family or a close family friend and in instances where the victims are children. There is no \u201cbook\u201d on how children respond to trauma. You would be wrong to assume that you know how a child would or should respond.\nSexual abuse doesn\u2019t just occur when a mom allows her new boyfriend to move in. It happens in families with blood relatives and close friends in backdrops you might not suspect. When you discuss \u201cstranger danger\u201d with your children, also reinforce that, if anyone ever abuses them, they need to tell.\nBe vigilant in safeguarding the children in your life by listening to your intuition. When something feels wrong, it usually is.",

O\u2019NEILL\nBroken promises and shattered dreams involving the David Carradines . . . Tom Petty . . . Cher and Howard Stern\u2019s \u201cPrivate Parts.\u201d\nRadio personality Kaptain Kaos, a.k.a. Paul Volpe, recently started his international music show on KIEV-AM (870) with \u201ca little pope music.\u201d\nAnd when the papal CD \u201cAbba Pater\u201d hit the airwaves, station management pulled the plug on \u201cThe Cutting Edge Subterranean Music Show,\u201d according to a suit filed in Los Angeles Superior Court.\nThree days later, on March 30, the Kaptain was shown the door, allegedly for playing \u201cunexplained profane foreign lyrics.\u201d\nAccording to the suit, the controversy began with a station ban against playing music with lyrics in languages \u201cthat could not be understood.\u201d The rationale: Management didn\u2019t want to assume liability for any profane lyrics that might slip by.\n\u201cAbba Pater\u201d features the pope praying and chanting against a musical background. It hardly qualifies as profane. Still, if Kaptain Kaos had wanted to play it safe, he could have stuck to playing Abba without the pater.\nThe pontiff\u2019s CD, the suit says, \u201cexplores such universal themes as charity, forgiveness, peace and reconciliation.\u201d These values might indeed seem foreign and unexplained to some.\nThe Vatican is puzzled. \u201cI cannot understand why those people are so upset with the CD of the pope,\u201d the papal emissary wrote Kaos/Volpe via e-mail.\nStation director Jason Jeffries had no comment. The suit, filed by attorney Cary W. Goldstein, seeks $4 million for defamation and wrongful termination.\nWHAT PUFF PIECE? Actor David Carradine, of \u201cKung Fu\u201d fame, and wife Marina Anderson are suing People magazine for libel, claiming the magazine defamed them despite a \u201cgentleman\u2019s agreement\u201d to print a \u201cnice story.\u201d\nAccording to the Los Angeles Superior Court suit, the Carradines agreed to be interviewed for the Jan. 11 article as part of a settlement of their lawsuit against Australia\u2019s Who Weekly, which is owned by People\u2019s corporate parent, Time Warner.\nThe interview process started pleasantly enough, according to the lawsuit by entertainment attorney Neville L. Johnson. The couple were flown to New York and put up in posh digs at the Plaza hotel. Time Warner magazine honcho Norman Pearlstine even \u201cprofusely apologized,\u201d the suit contends, and \u201cpromised that a nice story on the Carradines would be done for People or Entertainment Weekly.\u201d\nNo such luck. According to the suit, People wrote of alleged substance abuse and career downturns. \u201cThe tenor of the article is nasty and mean-spirited, a dig at him and his wife,\u201d the suit says. In a statement, a People spokesperson said the magazine intends to prove in court \u201cthat this lawsuit is totally without merit.\u201d\nPETTY DISPUTE: Rocker Tom Petty, who sings about places such as Reseda, is suing a Northern California company for allegedly botching a live recording of his Fillmore West concert.\nAccording to Petty\u2019s Santa Monica Superior Court suit, only 17 of the 30 songs were recorded. Petty claims that Phil Edwards Recording of Hayward, Calif., breached its agreement and seeks unspecified damages.\nEdwards said he hasn\u2019t seen the lawsuit and could not comment. He did say Petty \u201cis a great musician.\u201d\nESQ., 90210: Daniel Cosgrove is not a lawyer, but he plays one on TV. The actor, who appears on \u201cBeverly Hills, 90210,\u201d has turned to real-life Beverly Hills lawyer Michael Novicoff to defend him in a lawsuit by a man who claims to be his former personal manager.\nArthur Massei says in his Los Angeles Superior Court suit that he managed Cosgrove during the actor\u2019s salad days in New York City. Now that Cosgrove is a success, Massei is after his 15% cut, which he estimates to be in excess of $100,000.\nIn court papers seeking a dismissal, Cosgrove and his lawyer say Massei hasn\u2019t even ponied up a written contract for the court.\nCHER AND CHER ALIKE: A man who says he was Cher\u2019s friend and personal manager for 22 years charges in a lawsuit that she\u2019s dropped him now that she\u2019s got a hit song, \u201cBelieve,\u201d on the charts.\nBill Sammeth claims he helped Cher \u201creinvent herself.\u201d For his trouble, Sammeth says, he was \u201cunceremoniously terminated\u201d shortly after her Jan. 31 Super Bowl appearance. Sammeth claims he helped brainstorm the appearance, as well as Cher\u2019s turns on \u201cThe American Music Awards,\u201d \u201cThe Tonight Show With Jay Leno\u201d and \u201cLate Night With David Letterman.\u201d\n\u201cFar more than a manager, Sammeth was one of Cher\u2019s most loyal friends and confidants,\u201d say papers in Los Angeles Superior Court. \u201cHe stuck with her during the hard times in her professional life and the dark times in her personal life.\u201d\nThe suit, filed by attorney Henry D. Gradstein, says Cher gave Sammeth a special thanks in the liner notes of the \u201cBelieve\u201d compact disc. That\u2019s nice, but what Sammeth really wants is his 15% manager\u2019s fee, the suit says.\nPRIVATE PARTS BONUS: A writer for the feature film \u201cPrivate Parts\u201d is suing the production company and Rysher Entertainment, claiming they backed out of a promise to pay him a $37,500 bonus.\n\u201cPrivate Parts,\u201d you might recall, told the story of the rise of shock jock Howard Stern to his perch as the self-proclaimed \u201cKing of All Media.\u201d Stern was not named in the suit, filed in Santa Monica.\nThe New York-based writer, Larry Sloman, is seeking compensatory and punitive damages. His suit claims that Rysher and Private Parts Productions \u201cfraudulently induced\u201d him to lend his writing services to the film. Rysher had no comment.",

        "title": "Meet a Musician: Ted Toulouse - The Lawrence Community Orchestra",
        "raw_content": "Ted Toulouse with composer John Williams\nTed Toulouse, trombone\nOne of my first pieces of trombone music I remember buying was a piece by Jan Koetsier called Partita over \u201cWachet auf, ruft uns die Stimme\u201d for trombone and organ op. 73 (1976). I was looking for something to play at church and found this. The problem was this piece stays above the staff quite a bit and I was never that strong of a high-range player. Plus the organ part is pretty challenging for the average church organist in Wyoming, so needless to say, it hasn\u2019t gotten played very much.\nI\u2019ve always wanted to be able to play guitar better but haven\u2019t taken the time to really learn it. I would be nice to play an instrument that travels well and is a easier instrument to casually sing with. But I\u2019ve never had fast fingers going all the way back to piano lessons. So playing trombone for me is a good thing. And I put some thought into picking trombone in the first place so it suits me pretty well.\nOh man, there are too many to pick just one. I\u2019ve had a pretty blessed musical career so far. My biggest accomplishment career-wise was becoming a member of \u201cThe President\u2019s Own\u201d United States Marine Band in Washington, DC. Even though I joined as a librarian and not a playing member of the band, it was still an amazing musical accomplishment and a world-class organization to be a part of. That was my dream job, because I love using my musical talents and training, but I also love doing behind-the-scenes stuff.\nAs far as playing is concerned, I\u2019d say the thing that put all the confidence in the world in me was the summer I spent at Interlochen. Coming from Wyoming, I didn\u2019t have much perspective on what was out there in the musical world. So I got there and made the top concert band and played in a few chamber ensembles. Each week there were challenges for chair position. I was the only one in the whole group that never lost my chair that summer. Now I never moved UP, but I never moved down either. And there was some amazing talent there too \u2013 several artists who are making good livings being professional musicians. And I held my own in that environment, which built my confidence a lot going forward.\nProbably just some of my good friends I guess, I don\u2019t know. I don\u2019t have any pipe dreams of sitting next to the greatest players. I just want to sit next to good players that are sensitive to what\u2019s going on around them and blend well. That to me is the ultimate musical experience \u2013 being part of a group that\u2019s sounds amazing.\nThe Brahms Requiem, mainly because I LOVE doing collaborative stuff. There\u2019s nothing more powerful than feeling the voices behind you reinforcing your parts and us reinforcing them. I love Brahms, I love the give and take in those situations, I love hearing how the different parts work off each other at the first join rehearsals and I loved the magic of performing that in the Lied Center. I\u2019m thankful we got to do that and hope we can collaborate more with choir.",

        "raw_content": "Elder Hartman Rector, Jr., of the Seventy, taught an important principle for overcoming temptation:\n\u201cIn my experience, I have found that it is very, very dangerous to fly just high enough to miss the treetops. I spent twenty-six years flying the navy\u2019s airplanes. It was very exciting to see how close I could fly to the trees \u2026 , and it is extremely dangerous. When you are flying just high enough to miss the trees and your engine coughs once, you are in the trees\" (Conference Report, Oct. 1972, p. 172; or Ensign, Jan. 1973, p. 131).\nAre credit card offers tempting to you? Would you like to \"fly\" as far away from them as possible? How would you like to stop receiving them in the mail?\nThere was a time in my early 20's when I got a LOT of credit cards offer in the mail and opened every single one to see where I could next float my debt. Nowadays, I get one every so often. Is it because the credit card companies decided I'm too old for credit cards? (Don't you answer that!)\nCredit card offers get in the way, they make a mess in your kitchen/car/office, waste your time having to handle them, can become a temptation to incur debt, and can expose you to identity theft. Did you know that credit card offers are one of the ways identity thieves get your information? You may not be interested in opening a new account, but a thief who steals your mail can use the blank application addressed to you to open an account.\nLet me share some simple things you can do in less than 10 minutes to dramatically reduce credit card offers from filling up your mailbox and wasting your time.\nCredit Bureaus Opt-Out Line\nCall 888-567-8688 (888-5-OPT-OUT) from your home telephone (so it can be checked against an address database) or visit www.optoutprescreen.com to stop pre-approved credit card and insurance offers from reaching you by mail or phone.\nIf you haven't done so already, by all means, register your phone number with the \"National Do Not Call Registry\" maintained by the Federal Trade Commission. Once you have registered your telephone numbers at www.donotcall.gov or by calling 888-382-1222, most telemarketers are barred from calling you.\nInterrupt Telemarketers\nIt takes some time for the \"National Do Not Call Registry\" to be updated in all companies' databases, so you may still receive some phone calls. You may simply interrupt the telemarketer by saying, \"Please, put me on your DO NOT CALL list.\" They must comply immediately and end the phone call. If the same company calls, they are violating federal law. Ask for their company name, supervisor name, and telephone number. Report this to the Federal Trade Commission.\nYou already have so many things you are trying to keep out of your home, why not simplify financial matters a little more by keeping out debt temptations? Reducing the amount of credit card offers coming to your home is just another way to confirm to yourself that you vow to live a debt-free life!\n\u201cDebt can be a terrible thing. It is so easy to incur and so difficult to repay. Borrowed money is had only at a price, and that price can be burdensome\u201d (President Gordon B. Hinckley, \"Thou Shalt Not Covet\", Ensign, Mar. 1990, 4).",

He himself was passionate about the human body, because as a child had many illnesses which he corrected himself through movement.\nPilates is an innovative and safe system of mind-body exercise using a floor mat or a variety of equipment. It evolved from the principles of Joseph Pilates and can dramatically transform the way your body looks, feels and performs. Pilates builds strength without excess bulk, capable of creating a sleek, toned body with slender thighs and a flat abdomen. (Yeah, we know \u2013 who doesn\u2019t want that?)\nIt is a safe, sensible exercise system that will help you look and feel your very best. It teaches body awareness, good posture and easy, graceful movement. Pilates also improves flexibility, agility and economy of motion. It can even help alleviate back pain.\nIt's a great form of rehabilitation too, which I found myself when I had a car accident and a horse riding accident \u2026it completely changed my body and from my accidents used to suffer form vertigo which has now completely gone!!!\nNo matter what your age or condition, it will work for you, but don\u2019t just take our word for it.

        "title": "Ways to Reduce the Kidney Shortage | LI TRIO",
        "raw_content": "Ways to Reduce the Kidney Shortage\nBy The Editorial Board- The New York Times\nEDITORIAL SEPT. 1, 2014\nThe United States and many other nations are confronting a heart-rending problem: The number of kidneys available for transplants falls far short of the need.\nWhile some argue that the way to reduce the growing shortage is to pay living donors for kidneys, either in cash or government benefits, there are many ways to increase the supply without paying for human organs, which is prohibited by the 1984 National Organ Transplant Act.\nIn the United States, the number of kidney transplants fell to 14,000 last year, while the waiting list for kidneys currently exceeds 100,000 patients. The average wait time for a transplant has risen to almost five years; more than 4,000 people die each year while waiting and a great many more, possibly thousands, become too sick to undergo transplantation and are dropped from the wait lists.\nThe first step in easing the shortage is to end the current shameful waste of organs.\nHundreds of kidneys taken from deceased donors that are suitable for transplant are discarded every year, probably more than 1,000 some experts say. Surgeons typically hope to transplant a kidney within 24 hours to 36 hours of the time it is recovered and placed on ice for evaluation. Sometimes the clock runs out before a suitable recipient can be found. The United Network for Organ Sharing, which runs the allocation system, will revise its formulas in December in ways that it believes will increase the utilization of donated kidneys and thus reduce wastage.\nMeanwhile, many patients, possibly in the hundreds, who do receive transplants become ill again because they can\u2019t afford to pay for antirejection drugs that can cost more than $1,000 a month; Medicare stops paying for the drugs after three years unless the patient is old or disabled. Congress ought to extend coverage for as long as necessary.\nEqually important is increasing the number of people who agree in advance to donate their organs for transplantation or research. Many people already do that through driver\u2019s license check-offs, but a stronger national campaign to get more people to allow donation could help increase the kidney supply.\nTo encourage more living donors, some disincentives could be corrected. Some experts propose that government agencies or health insurers pay all costs a living donor faces, like travel and lodging for trips to the transplant center for evaluation and then for surgery, dependent care while recovering from the surgery and wages lost while recuperating.\nOthers want to make sure that donors can jump to the top of the transplant list if they develop disease in their remaining kidney, and also allow their loved ones to jump to the top of the list if they unexpectedly need a transplant. Some say donors should be given government-paid life insurance to cover a death during surgery or later complications from the surgery.\nThe American Society of Transplant Surgeons and American Society of Transplantation have proposed pilot projects to test the effect of many of these ideas. Most of these proposals seem consistent with the Declaration of Istanbul, a consensus statement adopted in 2008 by an international meeting of experts that aimed to increase the kidney supply while protecting poor people from illegal organ traffickers. But some may skirt close to infringing the federal law.\nA few advocates would go further by having state or federal agencies offer benefits to donors, perhaps a tax credit, college tuition, early access to Medicare or a contribution to a retirement fund. But such benefits, though not cash, clearly have monetary value, and raises the troubling issue of inducing people \u2014 most likely the poor \u2014 to sell their kidneys, which violates federal law.\nThere are lots of reforms that could be made without resorting to paying for kidneys. Congress ought to hold hearings on the best ways to reduce the shortage and save more lives on the waiting list.\nhttp://www.nytimes.com/2014/09/02/opinion/ways-to-reduce-the-kidney-shortage.html",

        "raw_content": "What Is the Bible?: How an Ancient Library of Poems, Letters, and Stories Can Transform the Way You Think and Feel about Everything\nBy: Bell, Rob\nHarperOne 2019 Paperback\nRob Bell, the beloved author of Love Wins and What We Talk About When We Talk About God, goes deep into the Bible to show how it is more revelatory, revolutionary, and relevant than we ever imagined--and offers a cogent argument for why we need to look at it in a fresh, new way.\nIn Love Wins, Rob Bell confronted the troubling questions that many people of faith were afraid to ask about heaven, hell, fate, and faith. Using the same inspired, inquisitive approach, he now turns to our most sacred book, the Bible. What Is the Bible? provides insights and answers that make clear why the Bible is so revered and what makes it truly inspiring and essential to our lives.\nRob takes us deep into actual passages to reveal the humanity behind the Scriptures. You cannot get to the holy without going through the human, Rob tells us. When considering a passage, we shouldn't ask \"Why did God say . . .?\" To get to the heart of the Bible's meaning, we should be asking: \"What's the story that's unfolding here and why did people find it important to tell it? What was it that moved them to record these words? What was happening in the world at that time? What does this passage/story/poem/verse/book tell us about how people understood who they were and who God was at that time?\" In asking these questions, Rob goes beyond the one-dimensional question of \"is it true?\" to reveal the Bible's authentic transformative power.\nRob addresses the concerns of all those who see the Bible as God's Word but are troubled by the ethical dilemmas, errors, and inconsistencies in Scripture. With What Is the Bible?, he recaptures the Good Book's magic and reaffirms its power and inspiration to shape and inspire our lives today.\nRomans: Grace, Truth, and Redemption\nTwelve Extraordinary Women: How God\nSeamless Bible Study Book: Understanding\nArmor of God (Bible Study Book)\nEphesians: Our Immeasurable Blessings in",

        "raw_content": "EDUC 118 - Introduction to Education: Schooling and Multicultural Society\nSubject: Education (EDUC)\nAlston,Chandra L\nThis course argues that education affects the lives of everyone in U.S. society and that Michigan students can benefit from a close examination of how race, ethnicity, gender, religion, and class shape schooling in this culture. Discussions in this class are not always comfortable because the topics are difficult ones, but students routinely claim that taking this course has been a transformative experience. When we discuss today\u2019s patterns of school funding, the effects of racism are immediately evident, and they take on historical context when we consider the gendered schooling of the Colonial Period, the denial of literacy to African Americans during the era of slavery, the powerful anti-Catholic sentiments that led to the creation of a system of Catholic education in the U.S., and the boarding schools which attempted to expunge the American Indian heritages of children. The historical context offers a somewhat distanced perspective on racism and ethnicity, along with gender, religion, and class. Accordingly, students sometimes take refuge in \u201cthat was then, this is now\u201d with regard to issues of educational inequality. However, when the course turns to more contemporary issues such as theories of intelligence based on race or assumptions made about students of Arabic descent or the experiences of female students in math and science, it becomes more difficult to deny the ways that race or ethnicity or gender contribute to inequality in education. Comparisons extend across time as well as across populations. For example, learning about the recent increase in school-age immigrants and the experiences of English language learners gives students a point of comparison with the role schooling played in the lives of late 19th-century immigrants. Similarly, considering the educational challenged faced by American Indians and Latinos in today\u2019s schools provides a synchronous comparative experience. Overall, then, this course gives students multiple opportunities to consider the meaning of race and ethnicity, to explore the various forms of inequality engendered by intolerance, and to compare discrimination as it is enacted in response to many forms of difference.\n10 EDU EDPA\nMW 10:30AM - 12:00PM 1315 SEB\nNote: Class will meet in Whitney (1315 SEB).

It has always remained fondly in my memories as being the most idyllic, romantic vacation spot. At his memorial service last year we showed a slideshow (which my grandson Nathan put together) made up mainly of pics of him on the island and underscored by Iz singing \"Over the Rainbow/What a Wonderful World\". I felt strongly that I wanted to return to Kauai with my family.\nThe trip was filled with memories of him, hiking Waimea Canyon, eating Jo-Jo's shave ice, eating at Keoki's Paradise, driving to the north shore. My grandson retraced his steps and my daughter-in-law took a photo of him standing at the very edge of the canyon my husband did and she stitched the two photos together to look as though they were standing there together. Our last day, which happened to be Georg's birthday, we tossed a lei off the balcony into the ocean.\nWe rented a beautiful condo right on the ocean, enabling us to take in the tropical breezes and the sparking blue water. Nathan learned how to dive at the pool and discovered a newfound love for hiking. I took him on his first helicopter ride to see the amazing scenery of the inaccessible places on the island. It was a special time of togetherness that I shall never forget.",

        "raw_content": "Intarsia is a form of wood inlay and a specialty of Sorrento, a lovely old town clinging to a cliffside some thirty-nine kilometers southeast of Naples. The intarsia technique involves arranging different woods\u2014mahogany, elm, chestnut, ebony, rosewood, olive, walnut, and other varieties\u2014into elaborate surface designs. The result is intricate renderings of cityscapes, architecture, floral and vegetal motifs, human figures, and geometric patterns.\nThe technique of inlaid wood was widely used across northern and central Italy by the late Middle Ages. Masters of wood inlay decorated medieval Italian churches with choir screens, stalls, pulpits, and other church furnishings with the intarsia technique. Although intarsia masters are documented in Sorrento as early as the sixteenth century, intarsia furniture became especially fashionable throughout Europe in the 1800s, following the cue of royal influence. Intarsia\u2019s popularity spread to France, and the Napoleonic court commissioned intricate works of furniture and other decorative pieces made in the Naples region. An intarsia school was established in the 1880s in Sorrento, and the craft continued to flourish. Around the turn of the twentieth century, the beautiful Amalfi Coast began to lure increasing numbers of foreign travelers. As Germans, English, Dutch, and Americans began to discover the special beauty of the local intarsia tradition, this outside interest ensured that the craft would endure.\nThe best way to visualize the intarsia technique is as a mosaic in which small shards of different-colored woods are pieced together within a hollowed-out wooden support. The technique involves gouging out a pattern in a wooden framework and then filling in the pattern with various woods to create a design. Every work of intarsia begins with a design, often hand-drawn on paper. A wooden template is then carved using a fine saw or bow-stick based on the design. The templates are finely and accurately carved down to the smallest detail. Next, the artisan chooses different species of wood based mainly on their coloration, contrast, subtle modeling, or veining. Historically, walnut is one of the most commonly used woods in intarsia, but cherry, oak, and some two dozen or more species might be selected for a single work. Intarsia makers use basic woodworking tools, including a variety of saws, planes, hammers, clamps, chisels, and other small tools to aid in carving the fine, intricate shapes.\ndetail from the collection of the Museobottega del Tarsialignea Sorrento\nFrom the collection of the Museobottega del Tarsialignea Sorrento\nNext, the individual pieces may be cut and fitted together, glued traditionally with fish glue. Finally, hardware such as locks, handles, and hinges, as well as any upholstery is added. The piece may be varnished to a high sheen with a clear, oil-based varnish although some pieces are left without stain to reveal the beauty of the wood. Even using the same pattern or design, no two pieces end up exactly alike. It sounds simple enough, but a single tabletop might take several months to complete.\nThe Wood Inlay Museum in Sorrento traces the history of intarsia with its collection of furniture and smaller objects from the early 1800s to the present displayed in cabinets of curiosities. There is also an active laboratory where you can watch this craft being done firsthand. If you have a few days or several weeks to spare, you can sign up for a class to learn how to do it yourself. In town, shops carrying cheap wooden trinkets line the port and streets around the Piazza Tasso and along the via San Cesareo, Sorrento\u2019s main shopping street. Instead, seek out the family-run workshops where you can watch masters work on intricate works of intarsia firsthand.\ntagged with Made in Italy, Sorrento, Wood, Inlay, Artisan History, Intarsia, Laura Morelli",

        "raw_content": "Terminology Tuesday: Green Roof\nA green roof is, most basically, one that is covered with vegetation. Plants are grown in several inches of soil atop a waterproofing membrane. Some green roofs include drainage and irrigation systems.\nGreen roofs are used on industrial, office, or residential buildings for their energy efficiency benefits (by insulating buildings and keeping them cool) and stormwater management. They also help mitigate the urban heat island effect, which happens when the temperature is hotter in urban areas because of the heat absorbed by the pavement. The roof is also useful when it rains: it acts like a sponge and absorbs much of the water that would typically run off and into the nearest drain or river.\nBelow is an example of a green roof: Chicago City Hall.\nSources: Environmental Protection Agency and How Stuff Works\nLabels: Green roof, terminology Tuesday",

        "raw_content": "Home News Nevada Boasts Huge Returns in First Month of Recreational Cannabis Sales\nNevada Boasts Huge Returns in First Month of Recreational Cannabis Sales\nNevada was 1 of 4 states to legalize recreational marijuana in last November\u2019s ballot and it is the first one to have begun to reap the rewards. Recreational marijuana went on sale to the public in Nevada this July. Now the fiscal results are in and the numbers are very impressive. It appears that the state has made $27 million in marijuana sales in the first month. This is nearly double what Colorado and Oregon made in their first months of operation at about $14 million and it is nearly 7 times what Washington made at $3.8 million.\nAn Increase in Estimates\nNevada\u2019s annual marijuana sales estimate has risen after its first month.\nGovernor Brian Sandoval estimated that recreational marijuana would bring in approximately $100 million in tax revenue during its first 2 years of operation. According to the latest projects, however, that number has increased to $120 million. The state worked very hard to begin sales as soon as possible in order to get the industry up and running within the fastest time frame. \u201cAlthough July was not accounted for in our projections, the first month\u2019s revenues demonstrate that the state\u2019s structure appears to be collecting at a rate consistent with the consensus forecast,\u201d said Mari St. Martin, spokeswoman for Governor Brian Sandoval.\nNevada\u2019s Rainy Day Fund\nLike all the other states with legal marijuana, the tax revenue will go towards paying for the industry and caring for community needs. Many voters expected the majority of funds to go to schools but this structure was changed. Sales tax, which is the extra 10 percent placed on retail sales of the plant, will go to the state\u2019s rainy day fund, which can be spent anywhere although is usually used to cover emergencies. The state has already made $2.71 million in sales tax.\nFurther Tax Distribution\n10% of Nevada\u2019s marijuana sales tax proceeds will go into the state\u2019s rainy day fund.\n333 companies applied for marijuana related business licenses for cultivation, retailing, distribution and manufacturing marijuana related products. 250 licenses were ultimately distributed. Each applicant paid $5,000 and, if they were awarded a license, they would have had to pay between $10,000 and $30,000. Industry fees and the 15 percent wholesale tax, which is paid by cultivators who are selling to the stores, will firstly go towards covering the government costs of running the industry and the remaining amount will go towards the state\u2019s School Distributive Account which distributes money to schools per student. $974,060 has already been made from wholesale tax revenue.\nThe state started its journey towards building a solid recreational marijuana industry in a somewhat problematic way. According to the law, alcohol distributors had the exclusive rights to distribute marijuana upon its legalization. The problem was that ultimately there were a limited amount of distributors who applied and so distribution was given to the marijuana distributors who were already working to deliver medical marijuana. As a result, the alcohol companies sued the state. In the meantime, marijuana retailers have had a hard time getting stock replenished as there is too much pressure on just a few delivery people to keep up with demands. As this issue continues to be resolved, at the very least, the state can enjoy its lucrative start.\nPrevious articleLos Angeles Marijuana Regulations Move Forward\nNext articleMarijuana and Diabetes Have a Strange Relationship That is Helping Sufferers",

However, returning from one of the best pieces of work that he has done since he won the Gold Cup, we found he was lame. This was desperately disappointing but his welfare is always the top priority and so he was sent off for further investigations which have unfortunately revealed a stress fracture of his tibia. This is an injury which will require a period of rest and rehabilitation but carries a very good prognosis for a full recovery. So, with his enthusiasm for galloping and racing still intact, he will do another six months of rehab before returning to full training in preparation for one more go at proving that he is still one of the greatest steeplechasers of all time. He broke records when he won the Gold Cup when still a novice so we will now hope that he can win one more big race after a record amount of time off. It was a similar stress fracture that caused most of the lay off before his wonderful season of 2014/2015, so we are ever hopeful!\nThe fairy tale that begun when we bought the great, late Plaid Maid (Coneygree, Carruthers and Flintham\u2019s mother) for a couple of grand, is not over yet and Carruthers proved that there is longevity in the family when finishing an impressive second in the ultra competitive Ladies Open at the Heythrop point to point at fifteen years of age!!\nConeygree and the rest of his family owe us absolutely nothing and I can assure his fans that I know and feel every step he takes and if, at any time, he is in any way, any less enthusiastic about his work he will be retired immediately and an alternative five star life for him will be found.\nWritten By Sara Bradstock\tOn February 14, 2018",

        "title": "Michael Baker -Immigration and Naturalization Law, DUI and Criminal Lawyer, Chicago: Was the Marriage Entered into for Immigration Purposes? Is the marraige \"Bona fide\" for immigration purposes?",
        "raw_content": "Was the Marriage Entered into for Immigration Purposes? Is the marraige \"Bona fide\" for immigration purposes?\nIn order to be granted permanent residency, your spouse's relationship with you must be established and your spouse must be admissible to the United States under the immigration law. Also, the marriage must be bona fide, not merely a sham to get the non US citizen spouse a green card. The USCIS takes fraudulent marriage seriously and you will be asked to provide supporting documents to show that the marriage is valid.\nOver the past two decades, Congress and the CIS have grown increasingly suspicious of marriages. Since 1986, a foreign-born spouse who has been married to the petitioner for less than two years is given conditional permanent residence for two years. While this conditional status is for the most part the same as regular permanent residence, it is designed to provide assurance that the parties did not marry for immigration purposes by allowing the conditional status to be revoked if the marriage does not last two years.\nIt is important to note at the outset that it is not against federal immigration law to consider immigration in deciding to get married. Considering immigration benefits will only be a problem if those were the ONLY reason to marry. So a couple, one of whom is undocumented and the other a citizen would not be breaking the law if they married before they would otherwise have planned to so the noncitizen can legalize his or her status. Despite this, and despite the fact that it can be impossible to determine why people marry, the CIS makes this determination every day. Therefore, it is important to know what factors will make the agency suspect marriage fraud.\nSome of the most obvious of these are if the couple did not know each other for very long before marrying or had seen each other only a few times before marrying. Also, if the couple does not live together, the CIS will be very suspicious, even more so if they have never lived together. Also, marriages between couples from different backgrounds, especially those that lack a common language, are viewed with suspicion.\nThe CIS is very suspicious of marriages entered into after one of the parties is placed in removal proceedings or is being investigated by the CIS. In such cases, the beneficiary is required to stay outside the US for two years after the marriage unless the parties can prove the marriage is bona fide. The best way to show that the marriage is bona fide is to present evidence of the parties\u2019 joint ownership of property and their cohabitation. Evidence of children born in the marriage, as well as affidavits from friends and family testifying to the bona fides of the marriage are also helpful.\nThe CIS has discretion to suspect and then accordingly to investigate a marriage which may bring immigration benefits to the aliens. If the CIS has reasons to suspect that the marriage is a \"sham marriage\", the CIS officers have the authority to investigate. Usually, the CIS officers may visit the suspect couple at their residence, or visit their neighbors to investigate whether they reside together, share a household, or own property jointly, etc. Also, the CIS officers may arrange interviews with the couple at their residence or at local CIS offices. _________________________________\nWhether an alien qualifies as a spouse depends upon three factors:\n(1) the validity of the marriage under the law of the jurisdiction where it was performed;\n(2) whether the marriage was entered into in order to confer an immigration benefit on the alien (a sham marriage); and\n(3) the current status of the marriage.\nThe only legally-sanctioned marriage defined by the INA to be invalid for immigration purposes is one in which the two parties were not physically in the presence of each other at the time of the marriage ceremony, unless the marriage was subsequently consummated. Other marriages may be invalid at their inception because one of the parties lacked legal capacity or because the marriage is against the law of the jurisdiction.\nThe most common impediment to a valid marriage, however, is the objection that one of the parties lacked capacity to marry because of the invalidity of a prior divorce. Any prior divorce must meet the legal standards of the jurisdiction where the divorce decree is entered, and must be recognized in the jurisdiction where the subsequent marriage occurs. While all U.S. divorces are considered valid determining the validity of divorces in foreign jurisdictions is often a complicated task. This difficulty can be compounded when the foreign jurisdiction recognizes \"custom-ary\" divorces and marriages; in such instances, it is necessary to study the actual facts of the divorce or marriage proce-dure or ceremony to determine whether the proper ritual was followed.\nEven if a marriage is valid at its inception, it may be considered sham for immigration purposes if it was entered into to confer an immigration benefit on the alien. The general authority to investigate the bona fides of a marriage rela-tionship for purposes of conferring an immigration benefit appears in section 204(b) of the INA. The basic test in all cases will be whether the parties entered into the marriage sharing the intention to establish a life together. Thus, the fact that the couple is presently divorced or separated does not necessarily negate the validity of the marriage for immi-gration purposes, although such circumstances may raise questions as to the bona fides of the marriage. In addition to this general investigatory authority, section 204(c) of the INA bars the approval of a visa petition for a person who pre-viously obtained, or attempted or conspired to obtain, immigration benefits by reason of a marriage determined to have been entered into for purpose of evading the immigration laws.\nSeveral other provisions added by the Immigration Marriage Fraud Amendments of 1986 (IMFA) are also designed to combat sham marriages.\nFirst, the INS cannot approve the spousal second preference petition of permanent residents who have been accorded their status based on a prior marriage unless:\n(1) a period of five years has elapsed after the alien acquired the permanent resident status;\n(2) the alien establishes through clear and convincing evidence that the prior marriage was not entered into for purposes of evading the immigration laws; or\n(3) the prior marriage was terminated through the death of the petitioner's spouse.\nSecond, an immigrant visa petition cannot be approved for an alien who has married after commencement of deportation, exclusion, or removal proceedings until the alien has resided outside of the United States for two years after the marriage. The alien can obtain a \"bona fide marriage\" waiver of the foreign residence requirement if the alien establishes by clear and convincing evidence that:\n(1) the marriage was entered in good faith and in accordance with the laws of the place where the marriage took place;\n(2) the marriage was not entered into for the purpose of procuring the alien's entry as an immigrant; and\n(3) no fee or other consideration was given (other than a fee or other consideration to an attorney for assistance in preparing petitions) for the filing of a petition on behalf of the alien.\nFinally, under IMFA, aliens who obtain an immigration benefit on the basis of a marriage entered into within two years of the time the benefit is conferred will be granted conditional resident status for a period of two years. Before this period ends, the couple must file a joint petition to remove the conditional basis of the alien's residence; failure to do so results in automatic termination of the alien's resident status. When the conditional resident is unable or unwilling to obtain the cooperation of the citizen or resident spouse or parent, he or she will be required to file an application for waiver of the joint petition requirement. There generally is no requirement that a marriage currently be viable in order for it to be the basis for conferring immigration benefits. In most cases, as long as the couple entered into a bona fide marriage and have neither divorced nor legally separated pursuant to a formal written instrument, they will be considered spouses for immigration purposes.\n(1) In the absence of adverse factors, an application for adjustment of status as an immediate relative should generally be granted in the exercise of discretion notwithstanding the fact that the applicant entered the United States as a nonimmigrant with a preconceived intention to remain. Matter of Cavazos, Interim Decision 2750 (BIA 1980), clarified and reaffirmed. Matter of Cavazos, 1980 BIA LEXIS 2; 17 I. & N. Dec. 215\n(2) A fraudulent or sham marriage that is entered into for the primary purpose of circumventing the immigration laws does not enable an alien spouse to obtain immigration benefits.\n(3) Where the parties enter into a valid marriage, and there is nothing to show that they have since obtained a legal separation or dissolution of that marriage, a visa petition filed on behalf of the alien spouse should not be denied solely because the parties are not residing together.\n(4) Although the separation of spouses in and of itself is not a valid basis for denial of a visa petition based upon a determination that the marriage is not viable, a separation is a relevant factor in determining the parties' intent at the time of their marriage, i.e., whether the marriage is a sham. (Matter of McKee, 1980 BIA LEXIS 17; 17 I. & N. Dec. 332)\nThe following is a list of some of the typical questions asked during an adjustment of status interview. During the marriage interview the parties may be questioned separately concerning the bona fides of the marriage. Usually the US citizen will be questioned first and then the alien spouse will be asked the same questions.\nMARRIAGE INTERVIEW-SAMPLE QUESTIONS\nDuring the marriage interview the parties may be questioned separately concerning the bona fides of the marriage.

Even married couples living together for many years sometimes have difficulties remembering all of the facts of their relationship. Be prepared and take original documents with you. Then you will have no problem passing the interview and obtaining permanent residence in the United States.\nLabels: Adjustment of Status, Citizenship and Immigration Services (CIS), Immigration Marriage Fraud Amendments of 1986, Lawful Permanent Resident, Lawfully Admitted for Permanent Residence",

        "raw_content": "\u2192 News & Politics\nMental illness comments about Trump\nStarted By april_rain , Mar 21 2017 03:27 AM\nFirstly, I must apologize: we have managed to pretty much make this forum Trump-free up to this point, and I am now the one to ruin it...\nSomething has been bugging me. I keep seeing references to Trump as being mentally ill. Even if he is diagnosable as having, say, narcissistic personality disorder, I still find these references offensive.\nFrom a BBC article:\n\" 'He may be a world-class narcissist, but this doesn't make him mentally ill, because he does not suffer from the distress and impairment required to diagnose mental disorder.' \"\n' He added: \"Mr Trump causes severe distress rather than experiencing it and has been richly rewarded, rather than punished, for his grandiosity, self-absorption and lack of empathy.'\n' \"It is a stigmatising insult to the mentally ill (who are mostly well behaved and well meaning) to be lumped with Mr Trump (who is neither).'\n' \"Bad behaviour is rarely a sign of mental illness, and the mentally ill behave badly only rarely. Psychiatric name-calling is a misguided way of countering Mr Trump's attack on democracy.\" '\nActually, I should correct myself: it is starting to piss me off.\nI've been on twitter for over a month now (I had an account for a long time but never used it... I started a new one just to mock Trump) and I keep seeing tweets about this. I recently read one that said:\n\"Trump is going to explode. Sadly, you can't keep severe mental illness in check for very long. Something will push him over the edge. Soon.\"\nI often reply to these tweets with something like, \"arrogance, stupidity, bigotry, racism, and misogyny aren't signs of mental illness\".\nSo, anyways, I wanted to hear what others here might think about this...\nI just read an article profiling his personality because I personally do think there's something a bit off with him so I looked into it. I also tend to look at it a bit differently. With a bit of humor maybe..\nAnyways, the article I read was https://www.theatlan...d-trump/480771/\nI didn't even finish it. It's pretty extensive, I'll give it that. I haven't looked up the credentials of the author. I was going to look into it when I was done with the article but then realised it's a mile long.\nI think people are just scared. I mean, people are still allowed to jump to conclusions or joke. I don't think they are far off when they see that he is somewhat imbalanced and 'off'. They're just looking for a way to describe what their seeing when they see a brash man with a temperamental personality running America.\nAnyways.. In conclusion it doesn't bother me. But then again I really haven't seen it. I haven't read it on social media (not too much anyways). Maybe if it was something I saw constantly on a daily basis it would get to me too..\nEdited by *mirror*image*, 21 March 2017 - 03:58 PM.\n^Thanks for the article - I will read it in a bit.\nI just came across this article about it, which I thought was quite interesting:\nAllen Frances says he's tired of \"amateur diagnosticians\" insisting that U.S. President Donald Trump has narcissistic personality disorder.\nAnd he should know. As the chair of the task force that wrote the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders IV, Frances literally helped write the definition of NPD.\nIn a letter to the New York Times, Frances, a retired Duke University professor, wrote that Trump \"may be a world-class narcissist, but this doesn't make him mentally ill, because he does not suffer from the distress and impairment required to diagnose mental disorder.\"\nHonestly it doesn't really bother me, which is somewhat surprising. Usually I get annoyed when people talk about mental illness in responses to articles, as they often show misunderstanding about mentally illness and make everyone out who has a mental illness as bad. I think I'm not as annoyed with the Trump amateur diagnoses because I think there may be something off (though it could be that he has a horrible personality) and there's just so much anger from both sides (the anger is the biggest issue for me).\nBack to News & Politics",

San Joaquin Valley, California\nimage: 7 5/8 in x 9 9/16 in; paper: 8 in x 10 in\nExtended Loan from the Estate of Katharine Taylor Loesch\nAmerican, b.1895, Hoboken, NJ; d. 1965\nBorn Dorothea Margaretha Nutzhorn in Hoboken, New Jersey, in 1895, Dorothea Lange contracted polio at the age of seven, leaving her with a permanent limp. Her father left the family when she was twelve, and subsequently her family moved to New York, where she later apprenticed in a portrait studio and studied with Clarence H. White at Columbia University (1917-1918). In 1918, she adopted her mother\u2019s maiden name and left New York to travel the world, but she only made it as far as San Francisco. There, Lange operated a portrait studio (1919-1933) and married the painter Maynard Dixon in 1920, with whom she had two children. Lange made her first documentary-style photographs of Native Americans while traveling with Dixon to the Southwest in 1923.\nAfter the stock market collapsed in 1929, Lange felt she had to respond to the deprivation she observed firsthand on the streets of San Francisco. Her first social documentary photographs depicted striking laborers and bread lines in 1933. The following year Willard Van Dyke organized an exhibition for Lange, through which the agricultural economist Paul Schuster Taylor became aware of her work. Taylor was a professor of economics at the University of California at Berkeley (1922-1964) and an advocate for migrant farmworkers. In 1935, Taylor asked Lange to accompany him as a research photographer on a study of migrant laborers in California for the State Emergency Relief Administration. Later that year, both Taylor and Lange obtained divorces and were married, beginning a lifelong professional and romantic relationship.\nLange is best known for her work for the Farm Security Administration (FSA) during the Great Depression. The photography project in the Historical Section of the FSA was originally formed as part of the Resettlement Administration (RA). The RA was created in 1935 to rehabilitate exhausted land, resettle struggling farmers, and build relief camps for migratory workers and refugees from the Dust Bowl. The photographic project\u2019s purpose was to document the plight of the rural poor and compile visual evidence supporting the RA\u2019s educational campaign to achieve its objectives. The RA was transferred to the Department of Agriculture and folded into the FSA in 1937.\nLange approached documentary photography as a deeply personal practice. She believed in photography\u2019s ability to reveal social conditions, educate the public, and prompt action. Lange thought of herself as an observer directly recording reality, although she also sought to portray moments with emotional resonance and to transform specific circumstances into transcendental and symbolic images.\nLange also had an extensive documentary career outside of her work for the RA and FSA. In 1941 she was the first woman to receive a Guggenheim Fellowship, with which she documented Mormon and Amana communities. Over a decade later she collaborated with Ansel Adams to document life in the Utah Mormon communities of Gunlock, Toquerville, and St. George for Life magazine. Three Mormon Towns (1953-1954) was published on September 6, 1954, accompanied by a text written by Lange\u2019s son, Daniel Dixon. The MoCP holds many photographs from this series, in addition to Lange\u2019s work from the Great Depression.\nIn 1952 Lange co-founded the quarterly periodical, Aperture, with Ansel Adams, Barbara Morgan, Minor White, Beaumont Newhall, and Nancy Newhall. The same year she met curator Edward Steichen at the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), New York, who was planning his now-iconic Family of Man exhibition, with which Lange became heavily involved. Family of Man opened at the MoMA in 1955. Almost a decade later, Lange began to assemble a retrospective of her life\u2019s work for the MoMA but was diagnosed with cancer of the esophagus in July 1964.

        "raw_content": "This forthcoming week we will PG be starting the Hebrew month of Elul, just a few weeks away from Rosh Hashanah and the High Holidays \u2013 a time of reflection, introspection and taking on new resolutions with which to enhance our lives, spiritually and meaningfully.\nTwo friends were walking when they saw a sign saying, \"Your country needs you!\"\n\"Hey, David,\" said one to the other, \"what are you waiting for? It says that they need you!\"\nThe first word of this week's Torah reading, Re'eh (\"See!\") (Devorim [Deuteronomy] 11:26-16:17), is in the singular form, even though Moses was speaking to the entire Jewish nation.\nThe commentator Ibn Ezra (famous early Biblical commentator, Rabbi Avraham ben Meir Ibn Ezra) explains that this is so that people would realize that \"he's talking to me,\" to each and every one of us on a personal level.\nA rabbi once gave a brilliant, inspirational sermon. Afterwards, one of the congregants came over and said, \"Rabbi, that speech was absolutely brilliant. If that doesn't get through to them, nothing will!\"\nGet through to them? What about you, sir!\nIt is too easy to think that they are talking to the next person, not to me.\nThroughout our lives, we are being spoken to by different people -- a spouse, a family member, a friend, an employer, a Rabbi, maybe even G-d -- trying to give us a message. It is so easy to fall into the trap of looking to the person next to us and thinking that he is the one being spoken to. Isn't it worth considering that maybe, just this one time, they're actually talking to me, and to take it to heart?\nLet\u2019s start with a Mitzva that the Talmud refers to as the Mitzvah, because of its importance: charity.\nWe'll read in the Torah this week, Re'eh (Devorim [Deuteronomy] 11:26-16:17), that we have the responsibility and privilege to support the poor. Especially at this time of year (the month of Elul, which PG starts this week and which is the lead-in month before the High Holidays of Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur) it is traditional to increase our charitable donations. Does it really work? Why tzedakah (charity) more than any other mitzvah?\nIt is traditional to increase in charitable giving at this time of the year and that is why we always read this parshah the week Elul begins. We're committing to change, to improve. We pray that G-d accepts us favorably, but who among us can be truly comfortable with the year that was? Ill decisions made, promises broken and wrong forks taken on the road of life. Our only hope is that G-d takes us back, warts and all, without examining too closely whether we deserve it. And, to set an example to G-d, we too hand out help and Tzedoka with an open hand to all, (and perhaps a bit more than usual!) and with the hope that, please G-d, this year we are blessed with good health and prosperity and we will all receive the greatest gift of all: the final redemption, with our righteous Moshiach.",

I think there were eight of us. Most of the group was running a slow fourteen miles, but three of us were going for a little speed today.\nGreg (our coach) drove us out ten miles to the end of the Isle of Palms. I road in the back of the truck and I think it may be the first time I have actually been cold this summer.\nWe got out there and it was still really dark. I bet it was a funny sight seeing us dumped off on the side of the road.\nWe started with a slow warm up mile (11:52). We wanted to stay between 8:55-9:25 for the middle eight miles. We picked it up and ran a pretty decent pace (9:05, 8:50, 9:04, 9:17). We stopped for a few seconds at Breach Inlet to refill our water bottles (I did not wear my camel pack today).\nAfter we started running again my hamstring was a little tight and it took about two miles for it to stop hurting (9:26, 9:05). I will have to keep an eye on it for the next few runs.\nWe increased our pace for the last two fast miles as we ran back into the Old Village (8:56, 8:55). We finished with a slow cool down mile (11:11) that felt like we were walking after the last few miles.\nWe got back and I drank a low calorie Gator Aid and cooled down with an ice cold washcloth (thanks Greg!).\nIt was very strange being dropped off and running back, not sure if I am a fan. I like out and back runs or loops for the most part, but it was a nice change.\nOnly 70 days left until the Marine Corps Marathon!",

        "raw_content": "Bolivia 1998 \u2013 Andean Altitudes\nSouth America holds one of the worlds greatest mountain ranges \u2013 The Andes. I stood on the banks of Lake Titicaca and stared toward the Condoriri Real. Within days I was standing at over 21,000ft on the summit of Illimani. It was one of the greatest moments of my life\u2026\nBolivia is the least visited of the Andean countries. Only in the last few years have mountaineers and travelers begun to explore the wonders of the country. The Aymara people of the High Altiplano (High Plains) are among some of the world\u2019s most interesting mountain cultures. They live a very traditional life. Reed boats are still constructed on Lake Titicaca as they have been for centuries, and the Llama is still the main form of mountain transport.\u2028The Andes offer almost unlimited amounts of altitude mountaineering with challenging routes available everywhere.\u2028I find South America such an incredible place to visit because of its fantastic history and ancient cultures. It is because of these values that I decided to climb in Bolivia.\nSitting at 11,972ft (3650m) above sea level La Paz is one of the world\u2019s highest cities.\u2028It was founded by the Spanish on October 20th, 1548 under the name of La Ciudad de Nuestra Se\u00f1ora de La Paz (The City of Our Lady of Peace). Shortly after it\u2019s founding, La Paz was moved to its present location, in the valley of the Chuquiago Marka, and more recently has spilled out onto the High Altiplano. The main street named after Bolivia\u2019s national hero, Simon Bolivar is dominated by modern tower blocks overlooking more colonial buildings. It houses the affluent traders and businessmen. The suburbs are a sprawling mass of narrow streets and basic brick houses showing the poverty which still exists here.\u2028We spent three days in La Paz to begin acclimatising before heading for Lake Titicaca.\nWe all need oxygen to live. At sea level the air we breathe has around 21% oxygen content. The higher we climb the less oxygen there is. At extreme altitudes there can be as little as 7% oxygen in the atmosphere. If certain rules are not followed then Altitude Mountain Sickness can occur. Headaches, dry throats, dizziness and nausea are all common symptoms. A speedy ascent can be made up to 10,000ft, where after a slow and steady approach must be taken. The recommended height gain per day after wards is 1000ft.\u2028Because La Paz sits at nearly 12,000ft the first week was extremely difficult. Walking up stairs or carrying rucksacks was almost impossible for the first few days. Slowly I acclimatised and after a week felt able to do most things that I had done at sea level.\nSitting at 12,506ft (3812m) above sea level, Lake Titicaca is the highest navigable lake in the world. With an average of 35 miles wide and 110 miles long it borders both Peru and Bolivia. In the traditional Aymara language Titicaca means \u201cGrey Puma\u201d.\u2028The lake is famous for its traditional Totora reed boats. Intricately woven from local reeds these vessels have sailed on the lake for centuries. Thor Heyerdahl came here in 1949 to design his rafts for a voyage across the Atlantic Ocean to prove that people could have sailed around the world long before anyone thought it possible. Surrounding the lake are the snow-capped mountains of the Andes, many unclimbed or inaccessible. El Condoriri in the Cordillera Real was our objective.\nUnder the shadow of \u201cthe Wings of the Condor\u201d was to be base camp for a week as the group attempted our first climbs into high altitude. We were now at 15,000ft and the air was thin. I had breathed heavily at every step over the three-day acclimatisation walk into camp, but now my body had begun to adapt.\u2028The camp is overlooked by a series of peaks named the head, left wing and right wing of the Condor. The Condor holds a mystical place in South American culture. It is seen as a symbol of good fortune to many who live in the mountains. A large glacier pours from these mountains giving La Paz much of its drinking water.\u2028The camp was dotted with multi-coloured tents from many other expeditions. This is a popular place for climbing in Bolivia as it offers a great range of different climbs from glacier walking to technical ice climbing in one valley.\nWe left camp at 5.30am and set off for the first peak \u2013 Little Illusion. The air was bitterly cold in the morning darkness, and it was not until I crunched across the glacier that I felt the warmth of the morning sun. We had to cross the lower section of the glacier before the sun warmed it too much, making it dangerous to cross. For the next six hours the group dodged crevasses and metal hard ice before all making it to the summit at 17,720ft (5250m). It had been a desperately hard climb with over 2,500ft of ascent in the day. Around us stretched miles of jagged black Andean mountains bordered by the Amazon rainforest, it was an incredible sight.\u2028Across the valley I could see the knife like ridge approach to Little Alpamayo, the next mountain.\nWith Little Illusion summated we felt confident for an attempt to climb Little Alpamayo. At over 17,000ft (5180m) high it is hardly \u201clittle\u201d. On the summit we would be 3.2 vertical miles above sea level, quite a daunting prospect.\u2028Once gain the climb started early to get us all over the glacier safely. After a difficult climb up the ice we were confronted with a 150ft abseil down an exposed rock face before the summit ridge could be assaulted. With falls of up to 3000ft possible the ridge was an exhilarating climb. Breathing heavily all the time I stood on the summit after 9 hours of solid climbing, but it was worth it. The views stretched for more than 50 miles over the mountains and rainforest.\u2028In the southeast I could see the towering rock and ice of Huyana Potosi. The last few days, though hard had been in preparation to attempt this mighty mountain.\nTwenty miles NW of La Paz stands the lonely 19,968ft (6,088m) giant Huyana Potosi. Although a popular mountain with many climbers, it still provides a tremendous mountaineering challenge.\u2028The climb took two days, with a mountain camp at 17,000ft. The early morning summit attempt allowed breathtaking views over an illuminated La Paz, and later over to Illimani, our final destination. The summit was a towering ice pinnacle overlooking a 3,000ft drop. It was an incredible place to be.\u2028It was here though that I first saw another side to mountaineering. One of the high camps was littered with waste from previous expeditions. It will take centuries to decompose or be swept down the massive glaciers. In this fragile world we need to take care of our environment, not destroy it. There and then I made a pact with myself too not only take all my rubbish away, but to leave my camp tidier than I found it.\nClimbing Illimani was one of the hardest days of my life and also one of my happiest. Ascending from the high camp to the summit expended almost all my physical energy. I had climbed over 3000ft to summit the peak and stood at 21,120ft (6,439m) or 4 vertical miles above sea level. La Paz looked almost tiny on the plains below and I could see over 100 miles around me. This was one of the happiest moments of my life.\u2028The descent was treacherous as the ice and snow had been warmed by the sun and had turned into a sticky mush which fills your crampons with ice. This can easily turn a small slip into a major fall. I descended over 7000ft to camp and had been on my feet for over 16 hours before I was safely in my tent. Although I ached all over I was happy at my achievement of being able to climb into the Andean Altitude.\nBolivia has to be one of the most interesting and enjoyable countries I have ever visited. Its culture leaves strong memories in my heart and its heights still take my breath away.\u2028La Paz offers both traditional and modern lifestyles and has an incredible history.\u2028The Aymara people have held onto their own values and cultures for thousands of years. We can learn so much from them about how to live with nature and each other.\u2028I made some wonderful friends on the trip from not only the UK, but also America, New Zealand and Spain.\u2028A passion for mountaineering had been awoken from deep within my soul. There is something about high altitude which holds onto your heart forever and always calls you back into the high mountains.\nAuthor Nigel VardyPosted on July 26, 2012 July 31, 2012 Categories ExpeditionsTags Bolivia\n1 thought on \u201cBolivia 1998 \u2013 Andean Altitudes\u201d\nAwe inspiring Nigel; Sitting on Top of The World!

Which had greater impact, usually are the subject of subsequent comments, either in meetings of friends or a family reunion.Normally I try to learn from every situation and capitalize on the experiences that are generated when I receive a service, and that I just want to talk. Additional information at Ali Partovi supports this article. In Lima, as in many cities that grow rapidly, safe cab services have increased. We, as parents, we seek greater security for our children and naturally, at the age of adolescence, the outputs is more frequent with her friends. A few days ago I contacted by phone to a taxi company that we recommended and saw something that caught my attention.I informed me about 10 pm.\nto request a service from pick up my two children. The person who answered the phone will not let me finish greet him, when I already asked to dry my name and surname. With grim reaper voice, asked, my phone number, then the address, etc. The way in which the person was talking about me caused me laughter and could not avoid doing so to hear him. Phone I spent my wife so that he finishes give you data, she also began to laugh because of the way in which that person spoke. I am sure that the receptionist\u2019s call, neither knew what was happening. The fact is that if it would not have taken it with good humor, probably I would have disgusted me the way I spoke and another would be history.My wife told me that it was not the first time that it had happened to him this. The person who does the phone in the morning is very attentive, but that works at night, unfortunately has that sharp, almost militarized style he referred. Many times we have had to deal with an employee who does not meet the profile to meet a client and we have asked ourselves that makes working in that post! I\u2019ve met people who do not look in the eyes when you serve, which they call you by code, that listening to music at high volume, which they eat while you attend by phone.\nPosted in News | Comments Off on Codes Phone\nModular furniture gets a big demand for and acceptance of customers. With a medium-sized proportions, the furniture of this group a long time get tired of the owner, because it is easily possible to move, changing or part of the interior in this room, or completely changing the internal atmosphere and state of mind. In addition, a large number of companies now offer customers services build modular systems for specific projects. Learn more on the subject from Mashable. Suppose a written desk for home office. Assume that the table should fit in a small niche to a certain depth, and meet the strong growth of the host. Most often, manufacturers produce only 'order thing', but not unique subject in this sense, because this desk can turn into a coffee table.\nIf we talk about the cabinets, the best solution for homes is to purchase a full 'home office', which consists of the most the right furniture pieces. The most convenient are the modular lockers, which consist of a set of drawers and shelves. Thanks to them, every thing in your office will be a private permanent place. Typically, this modular furniture does not require a lot of time to build. They are going out of 4 walls, docked with one another, introducing a single coherent structure. Actual acquisition of such a system becomes completely drawers. Such a system is put not only in children for the purposes of that and things, and various toys were a child from one side of the room, but also in private offices with the ability to reduce the size of the cells. Documentation, stationery and individual items will have the proper form, and will be expanded in a sequence that each of them the owner will not be difficult to find. Certainly, any landlord will try as vividly as possible to express their individuality, even if he \u2013 or rather reserved man pedantic, do not tolerate the presence of other objects in the workplace. Modular systems and modular furniture \u2013 are small designers to help solve difficult problem, with an area that is not always a virtue and a good technician, as quite often you can almost not notice how small the room is transformed into a cozy nook where you can find a place for everything.\nPosted in News | Comments Off on Modular Systems",

        "raw_content": "Well, my laziness got the best of me my last few months in Korea. I stayed so busy trying to see people and places and saying goodbyes and shopping for souvenirs that I put the blog on the back burner. It was a farewell that left my stomach in knots and although I continued to tell myself that it was my last go in Dae-Han-Min-Guk, I don't think it was a final goodbye.\nOriginally my plans were to go home for the holidays and start a graduate program in Thailand in May. I even booked a ticket to Vietnam to spend a few months there, killing time and saving money while waiting for school to start. Yet, as the end of my contract at ECC approached, I began to think that the more realistic thing to do would be to save for an additional year. I've even been considering making ESL a career path of mine, so an extra year to figure all that out might be good for me. I tossed around ideas of going to Dubai or Japan even but Korea is my comfort zone and it's hard to imagine having to start the cultural transitioning all over again.\nSo, it looks like that's the plan.\nI'm still headed to Vietnam as I now will have to wait for my documents to be processed. It seems that Korea has been upping its requirements for the E2 (teaching) visa on a year-to-year basis. An FBI-issued criminal background check is now mandatory and it can take up to three months to be completed. Nevertheless, all time is valuable so I'll be enjoying mine in Ho Chi Minh City come January 5.\nI considered renaming my blog as it will no longer be primarily about Seoul, or even Korea, but I guess it's never been entirely consistent anyway. Also, this little venture of forks-in-the-roads and unclear destinations is, in fact, soul searching. So, I'm keeping the name. I'll also be posting more photo entries as I recently purchased an Olympus PEN E-PL2 as a Christmas present to myself. I'd like to pick up photography again as a hobby so keep an eye out for that.\nIn the meantime, I hope all of you had a wonderful holiday and will have a happy, healthy, and prosperous 2012!\nLabels: transitions | 1 comments\nDefinitely keep blogging -- I love keeping up with Korean culture via your slice of the blogworld. Who knows, maybe we'll meet up again someday in this big ole world out there.",

        "raw_content": "Home > Lions led by donkeys? > Gallipoli > Background\nOrigins of the Gallipoli plan\nAttack on the straits\nInvasion of Gallipoli\nOrigins of the Gallipoli plan Back to top\nBy early 1915, it was clear that this was going to be a long, hard war. It was also clear that the western front had effectively become a siege, with French and British troops trying to drive the Germans off the land they had taken. The politicians and the military began to look at campaigns that might get results, rather than a terrible stalemate.\nWinston Churchill, the government minister in charge of the Royal Navy, suggested an attack on the Dardanelles. The Dardanelles are the narrow straits of water giving access to the Sea of Marmara. Controlling the straits would give the Allies several possible advantages:\nThe Royal Navy could attack Constantinople, capital city of Germany's ally, Turkey.\nThe Navy could attack Turkish industry, which was mainly based around the Sea of Marmara.\nGreece and Bulgaria might join the war on the side of the Allies against Turkey.\nBritish and French merchant ships could send vital arms, equipment and other supplies to their ally, Russia. In January 1915, the Russian commander, Duke Nicholas, was asking for allied help because the Germans were pushing his forces backward.\nMap of Gallipoli.\nOn 13 January 1915, Churchill put forward a plan for a Royal Navy attack on the straits. Senior naval officers, including the most senior naval officer, Admiral Fisher, were opposed to the idea. Churchill had the support of the War Minister, Lord Kitchener, and got the go-ahead for the plan.\nChurchill took some trouble to get French support. The French naval minister, Jean Augagneur, agreed to provide some ships, even though his own military commanders opposed the plan. Apparently he felt that the French should be involved so that they would gain their share of the credit if it were a success.\nMany military commanders felt that it was a risky attempt to get some favourable headlines. They questioned what the Navy was supposed to achieve once it broke through the straits. They were concerned that unless the army took control of the land on either side of the straits, it would be very difficult to get supplies to the ships. Admiral Fisher was also alarmed at the removal of ships from the North Sea for a venture he considered to be not worth the risk.\nAttack on the straits Back to top\nFrom 19-25 February, French and Royal Navy ships bombarded the Turkish forts at the edge of the straits. They also landed marines ashore to destroy Turkish forts and guns. These actions were relatively successful, but they were only against the weaker Turkish fortifications. The highly mobile Turkish field guns were untouched and the main defences of the straits were still unchallenged.\nOn 8 March, the Navy decided to force its way through the straits. Admiral Carden, the reluctant author of the attack plan, collapsed from nervous exhaustion and was replaced by Admiral Robeck. The attack was disastrous. As a result of mines, the British and French lost 3 battleships and 3 more were crippled.\nThis meant that the action would now have to be mainly an army campaign. This was not part of the original plan and the arrangements for a large land force were put together in a great hurry. The French supplied around 18,000 French colonial troops. The main British Empire force was about 75,000 strong. A large number of these were inexperienced Australian and New Zealand (ANZAC) troops. There were Indian, British and Irish troops as well.\nInvasion of Gallipoli Back to top\nThe initial attack took place on 25 April. The British overall commander, Sir Ian Hamilton, was fortunate to choose landing places that were relatively weakly defended. Despite this, losses were very heavy. The Turkish troops were trained and led by German officers and performed just as well as German troops on the western front. This took the British by surprise. It was also clear that the Allies had little information about the landscape of Gallipoli before the attack. They did not realise how difficult it was.\nThe ANZACs under Sir William Birdwood managed to set up a base at ANZAC Cove and Hamilton managed to take control of Cape Helles. During May and June of 1915, Allied forces under General Sir Aylmer Hunter Weston tried three times to capture more land on Gallipoli by attacking Krithia. Each attack was driven back with heavy casualties.\nThe Gallipoli campaign was under-resourced and had not been properly planned. A new Dardanelles Committee was set up. It included Churchill, but not in a senior role. He had already been humiliated when Admiral Fisher resigned in protest over the campaign after the failure of the Navy attack in March. The new committee sent 3 divisions (about 45,000 men) of reinforcements to Hamilton \u2013 not a popular decision with commanders on the western front. The Turks were also reinforcing their troops.\nIn August 1915, the ANZACs attacked from ANZAC Cove and Hunter Weston's troops attacked from Helles. The new troops under Sir Frederick Stopford landed at Suvla Bay. Hunter Weston's forces again suffered heavy casualties while Birdwood's ANZACs performed well. Stopford's landing was a great success, but he failed to push forward quickly enough and the Turks were able to pull back to new defences and stop him.\nStalemate Back to top\nThe Gallipoli campaign became a stalemate. It was trench warfare again as neither side could dislodge the other. The Allied forces were dug in, but their enemies were mostly on high ground above them. Turkish attempts to drive the Allies out failed, but the Allies could make no headway.\nConditions were terrible; heat and lack of water were major problems. The Allies were short of ammunition. Their losses were running at about 40,000 casualties and disease was rampaging through the troops. They held on until October 1915, but faith in the Gallipoli campaign was fading. Hamilton was criticised in the Australian newspapers and had little support in the British government. He was replaced by General Sir Charles Monro.\nMonro immediately recommended abandoning the campaign. Lord Kitchener disagreed and travelled to Gallipoli himself. Once he arrived there and saw the situation for himself, he immediately agreed and the evacuation began in December. Monro organised the evacuation well. Casualties were very few as Monro took great trouble to confuse the Turks so that they did not realise what was happening. The evacuation was probably the most efficient aspect of the campaign.\nFrance (estimated)\nTotal Allies\nA government committee investigated the campaign, but its conclusions were vague and no figures were released at the time.

She delivers twisted plots, enchanting characters, and I never really know the truth until the very end. While Forget Me Not will still hold a piece of my heart, She Asked For It has quickly become my new fave from this author. She tackled an incredibly sensitive topic, gave it meat and heat and guts and pain and FEELS and the damn kitchen sink, and virtually compelled me to keep reading, no matter how hard it got. She slayed with this one!\nDean and Allison were no strangers to pain. For Dean, grief and violence were his mainstays. He was very angry, all of the time. His only solace was Allison. As for her, grief had touched her in a tangible way. It went hand-in-hand with violence and the secrets she kept were her way of keeping those she cared about from suffering further pain. Together, they got a huge dose of the unexpected. Neither was looking for love, but it found them regardless. I really enjoyed the tug-of-war played by these two. Every time Dean got a foot in, Allison was trying to find ways to distance herself. Yet as much physical distance she tried to place between them, he had already stamped his ownership on her heart.\nEvery time I thought I knew what was what in this story, the author threw me for a loop and I loved it. I didn\u2019t know what Allison\u2019s motives were. While Dean came across as an open book (imagine that), getting to know Allison was like slowly peeling an onion. You\u2019ve got uncontrollable tears coming down your face and you still have more to cut through and do to make the onion palatable. These characters had depth and the plot was emotional torture, in the best way.\nI loved how Willow took this phrase, She Asked For It, that many of us have had to live down and turned it into such a hugely thoughtful and profound story. She turned a glaringly bright light on it and took away some of its power. She didn\u2019t shy away from the ugly and instead tried to show the beauty that could live underneath it. This story was a painful yet stunning portrayal of one girl\u2019s journey to make things right, no matter the cost, and her fight and eventual defeat against the love of a lifetime.\nRelease: Jan. 23, 2018 | Genre: NA Contemporary Romance | Dual POV - 1st person | Heat: 4 out of 5 | Book #1 of the She Asked For It series\nLabels: Contemporary, fivestars, REVIEW, Trigger",

        "raw_content": "Communal eroticism of Emmanuelle\nIt is almost impossible to choose which authors to profile in this column because there are so many, and they are all prolific writers with deeply impressive portfolios.\nPublished: 08th April 2017 04:00 AM | Last Updated: 07th April 2017 11:13 PM | A+A A-\nIt is almost impossible to choose which authors to profile in this column because there are so many, and they are all prolific writers with deeply impressive portfolios. But sometimes an author (or two authors in this case) has to be profiled simply because their lives are seemingly as fascinating as the book that they both (allegedly) wrote.\nThe French erotic Emmanuelle is now a classic; a series of movies were made based on the book, and the book was written by Marayat Bibidh (or Emmanuelle Arsan, which was her pen name). But was it? The book was first published anonymously in 1959, although subsequent editions claimed that the author was Marayat. Later it was finally revealed that the book was written by Louis-Jacques Rollet-Andriane, Marayat\u2019s husband. Emmanuelle was also only the first; several more novels were eventually published under the Emmanuelle Arsan pseudonym.\nLouis-Jacques and Marayat met each other in 1948 in Switzerland, where Marayat was studying in the prestigious Institut Le Rosey. She was 16 years old, and he was already in the French diplomatic service, and a much older 30. It was love at first sight, but they did not marry until 1956, after which they moved to Thailand, where Louis-Jacques was posted with UNESCO.\nThe couple quickly adapted to life in Thailand, although their lifestyle was rather unique; they both had a commitment to a hedonistic lifestyle, and indulged in experiments with communal sex. Their reputation for being sexually adventurous was firmly established, and it is alleged that many of the incidents described in Emmanuelle were based on their actual experiences.\nIn 1963, Louis-Jacques was posted to Italy, and the couple lived in both Venice and Rome; from 1968 onwards the couple lived a jet-setting lifestyle, alternating between Paris and Bangkok. After the book\u2019s success, there was a movie directed by Just Jaeckin in 1974 with the same name, followed by the movie Laure in 1976, based on the adventures of a much younger Emmanuelle. Laure was actually directed by Louis-Jacques, alongside Roberto D\u2019Ettore Piazzoli, but problems with the producer led to his request that his name not be featured in the film\u2019s credits. Marayat also had an acting career, acting in a couple of films, and appearing in Laure as herself. She had a contract with Twentieth Century Fox, although she never worked as an actor for them after 1967.\nBetween 1974 and 1976, Marayat and Louis-Jacques published the erotic magazine Emmanuelle, le magazine du plaisir (Emmanuelle, the pleasure magazine) in France, contributing photographs and text. The couple had two daughters, Sophie and Daniele, and retired to France to a commune near Callas called \u2018Chantelouve d\u2019Emmanuelle\u2019 in the 1980s. It was here that Marayat fell ill in 2001 when she was diagnosed with systemic scleroderma, a rare and incurable genetic disease.\nShe died on June 12, 2005; she was 73. Louis-Jacques died three years later in April. They left the world Emmanuelle, the cult hit that has sold hundreds of thousands of copies since its initial surreptitious publication in France, and that continues to enthral new generations of readers.",

(AP Photo/Kathy Willens)\n(Newser) \u2013 It's a dizzying downfall: Sarma Melngailis went from the Ivy League and French Culinary Institute to near-instant fame and success in the Big Apple when she opened the vegan restaurant Pure Food and Wine, frequented by the likes of Alec Baldwin. Hailed as the city's \"hottest vegan\" by the New York Post, Melngailis seemed to have it all\u2014until a man by the name of Anthony Strangis entered the picture, sometime around 2013. Though there were early inklings that all was not merry in Melngailis land (her former boyfriend accused her of having thrown stools and grapefruits at him back in 2005, and she admits to battling bulimia since opening her restaurant), Melngailis' world began to deteriorate rapidly with Strangis by her side. (The Knoxville News Sentinel calls him \"a 275-pound alleged gambling addict with a criminal record.)\nBy 2014, Melngailis had failed to make payroll multiple times while spending tens of thousands on casino trips, European vacations, and Rolexes.

        "title": "New York Court Watcher: Roberts, Scalia & Kennedy - Lippman, Graffeo & Read (Part 3 of Supremes vs NY Court of Appeals: Judicial Output [with Charts!])",
        "raw_content": "Roberts, Scalia & Kennedy - Lippman, Graffeo & Read (Part 3 of Supremes vs NY Court of Appeals: Judicial Output [with Charts!])\nIn the last 2 posts, we compared the judicial opinion outputs of Chief Justice Roberts and New York's Chief Judge Lippman, and then of Justices Scalia & Kennedy and Judges Graffeo & Read. Now let's combine those in a few charts just to make it easy to see where we are thus far in this series.\n[In the next post we'll get to some additional Justices and Judges.]\nFirst, let's look at total opinions--i.e., the sum of majority + concurring + dissenting opinions authored by each Justice and Judge. And specifically, for this series, we're looking at the immediately preceding year at the Supreme Court and the New York Court of Appeals, from summer break 2012 to summer break 2013.\nAs is clear from Chart 1, and has been clear from the charts in the previous posts, the total judicial output of the New York Judges is significantly greater than that of the Supreme Court Justices. Justice Scalia's output is an exception to the general pattern. The total number of opinions he authored is considerably greater than that of his two colleagues included here, and greater than that of New York's Judge Read.\nLet's look inside these figures. Let's start with the number of majority opinions within these totals.\nAgain, the output of the Court of Appeals Judges is much greater than that of the Justices. Indeed, each of the three New York Judges considered thus far authored at least twice as many majority opinions--i.e., controlling opinions for the Court as a whole--than did any of the three Justices. Judge Graffeo, for the starkest example, wrote nearly 3 times as many majority opinions as did Chief Justice Roberts or Justices Scalia or Kennedy.\nNote also, that when majority--i.e., again, controlling--opinions are considered alone, Justice Scalia's authorship drops dramatically. The number of majority opinions he authored--like the number for his two colleagues--is far less than the number for any of the three New York Judges.\nLet's take a look at that graphically, simply joining the first 2 charts.\nWhat immediately jumps from Chart 3 is that Scalia's majority opinions are just 1/3rd of the total opinions he authored. He is prolific--but mostly writing separately from his colleagues. That is not a criticism, not at all. Just a fact. And it helps to explain why his number of total opinions is an exception to the general pattern among the Justices.\nNote also that Chief Judge Lippman's number of total opinions is likewise considerably greater than the number of his majorities. He did author more than twice as many controlling opinions as did any of the 3 Supreme Court Justices. But there are a significant number of non-majorities that make up his total.\nLet's compare the number of majorities to non-majorities for each of these Justices and Judges.\nAgain, Scalia's numbers jump out. He wrote more than twice as many separate opinions--i.e., concurring and dissenting--as majorities. By contrast, Roberts and Kennedy wrote nearly the same number of non-majorities as they did majorities--Roberts, 1 more non-majority than majority; Kennedy 2 less.\nAs for the New York Judges, Lippman authored nearly as many non-majorities as did Scalia. But, as opposed to Scalia, he wrote even more majorities than non-majorities. The other 2 New York Judges, Graffeo and Read, wrote far fewer non-majorities than majorities, and as we've already seen, far more majorities than any of the 3 Justices.\nFinally, just for those who like everything in one tidy--if crowded--package, here's a chart combining all that's gone before.\nThere it is. Cluttered, but all in one.\nIn the next post, we'll look at the judicial outputs of additional members of the Supreme Court and the Court of Appeals. Will we see the same patterns? Or will we find that what we've seen thus far is out of the ordinary?\nLabels: Graffeo_Victoria, Kennedy_Anthony, Lippman_Jonathan, NY Court of Appeals, NY Court of Appeals (2012-13), NY Ct Workload, Read_Susan, Roberts_John, Scalia_Antonin, SupCt (2012-13), SupCt Workload",

        "raw_content": "Storing energy from renewable sources\nOne of the greatest challenges in generating energy from renewable sources is finding a way to store the continuously fluctuating energy being produced. Batteries, supercapacitors, and most other energy-storage technologies typically can't respond quickly enough to the second-by-second fluctuations inherent in wind and solar energy sources.\nOne device that does have a sufficiently fast response is electrostatic capacitors, but their drawback is their low energy density\u2014they simply cannot store very much energy in a given volume. Addressing this problem, researchers in a new study have shown in simulations that antiferroelectric materials based on bismuth can potentially exhibit very high energy densities (150 J/cm3), making them a promising candidate material for electrostatic capacitors.\nThe results point to the possibility of a high-performance, environmentally friendly energy-storage device for renewable energy sources. The researchers, Bin Xu and Laurent Bellaiche at the University of Arkansas, and Jorge \u00cd\u00f1iguez at the Luxembourg Institute of Science and Technology, have published a paper on their investigation of antiferroelectrics for energy storage in a recent issue of Nature Communications.\nImage Credit: Nature Communications",

        "raw_content": "Atheists pop heroes examined by Michael Novak\nSaw this over on the Thinking Christian site - I added a hyperlink - great piece of Christian skepticism:\n...it is extremely difficult to engage on the same level with Harris, Dennett, and Dawkins. All of them think that religion is so great a menace that they do not have much disposition for dialogue. The battle flags they put into the wind are Voltaire's Ecrasez l'infame! Meanwhile, all three pretend that atheists \"question everything\" and \"submit to relentless, almost tedious, self-criticism.\" Yet in these books there is not a shred of evidence that their authors have ever had any doubts whatever about the rightness of their own atheism. Self-questioning about their own scholarly indifference to their subject; about the horrific brutalities committed in the name of \"scientific atheism\" during the 20th century; about the restless and mercurial dissatisfactions in atheist and secular movements during the past hundred years; and about the demographic weaknesses thereof--all such questions are notable by their absence. Moreover, although an atheist zeitgeist dominates university campuses in America, it has not proved persuasive to huge numbers of students, who hold their noses and put up with it. Why does atheism persuade so few? Our authors never ask.\nIt was, then, a huge disappointment to me to find that Dennett,\nHarris, and especially Dawkins paid no attention to the actual conversion experiences and narratives of fidelity, which are so common in the prison literature of our time. Moreover, none of them ever put their weak, confused, and unplumbed ideas about God under scrutiny. Their natural habit of mind is anthropomorphic. They tend to think of God as if He were a human being, bound to human limitations. They are almost as literal in their readings of the Bible as the least educated, most literal-minded fundamentalist in Flannery O'Connor's rural Georgia. They regale themselves with finding contradictions and impossibilities in these literal readings of theirs, but the full force of their ridicule depends on misreading the literary form of the Biblical passages at stake, whether they be allegorical, metaphorical, poetic, or resonant with many meanings, for the nourishment of a soul under stress. The Bible almost never pretends to be science, or strictly literal history.\nMost of all what surprised me is that, while all three authors write as if science is the be-all and end-all of rational discourse, these three books of theirs are by no means scientific. On the contrary, they are examples of dialectic--arguments from within one point of view, or horizon, addressed to human beings who share a different point of view. Surely, one of the noblest works of reason is to enter into respectful argument with others, whose vision of reality is dramatically different from one's own, in order that both parties may learn from this exchange, and come to a deeper mutual respect. Our authors engage in dialectic, not science, but they can scarcely be said to do so with respect for those they address.\nThe atheist ego\nIt is remarkable...\nJust recently, in one of the discussion boards I used to frequent, an atheist lamented about the fact that, to paraphrase the words of Rodney Dangerfield, Christians \"just don't give me any respect.\"\nThis follows after the person in question related a fairly normal atheist tale. Grew up in a \"religious\" home, started investigating on his own at the age of 15, \"studied\" religion for about 4 years, and then concluded that it was all a load of bunk. Stories like that abound in non-believer circles. They then proceed to try and convince you that God does not exist, based on their years of study.\nWell, I'm sorry if I stand a tad skeptical towards these types of arguments. And if that is construed as a lack of respect, then you ain't gonna get any either.\nBecause here are the problems with that type of argument:\n1. Has the person in question examined all the evidence, everywhere? If the person claims that, I will venture that he is slightly mistaken. And if not, then we have to ask why the person wishes to make an absolute claim based on partial evidence? And any starting assumptions need to be shown as necessarily true.\n2. The opinion or conclusions of that person, or any other human, has very little to do with the objective truth of God's existence. Even if everyone, everywhere, at all times believe that God does not exist, He still does.\n3. These types of arguments rely on assumptions that are unprovable from the atheist perspective. On what grounds, for example, would an atheist purport to be feeling insulted about getting no respect? If deterministic chance is the ultimate cause, then no-one can be blamed, and no-one can feel aggrieved. If the standards are social, then where did the social standards come from?\n4. It relies on vicious circularity. A starting assumption of the human need to skeptically investigate \"religion\" will inevitably lead to atheism, with rare exceptions. The unregenerate cannot find the truth through investigation of any sort.\nSo, I'm sorry to say that our atheist friend will not get any respect, because his arguments are unsound. They are firmly grounded in the relativist vagrancies of the human ego.\nIn stark contrast stands the witness of God through creation, revelation and grace. In Him we are firmly grounded. However, Christians don't deserve respect in this sense either, only God deserves it. We just give it to the deserving One, and through Him we respect our fellow believers.\nMore than Lyrics by Elton John\nElton John recently stated that religion produces discrimination, bias, hatred and spite. Referring to his position, he stated \u201cFrom my point of view, I would ban religion completely. Organized religion doesn\u2019t seem to work. It turns people into really hateful lemmings and it is not really compassionate.\u201d\nHas it ever occurred to you to ask the question, if organized religion is the source and produces all these things (discrimination, bias, hatred, spite, etc.), then where did Elton John get his?\nIt never ceases to amaze me, how in either debating or listening to those who oppose the truth, how often they in laying charge to believers commit the very crimes they seek to lay at the feet of believers. It\u2019s no wonder the Apostle Paul writes in Romans 2 to unbelievers that \u201cYou, therefore, have no excuse, you who pass judgment on someone else, for at whatever point you judge the other, you are condemning yourself, because you who pass judgment do the same things\u2026\u201d, (only in the case of homosexuality, both Scripture and natural intuitive knowledge affirm the position of those opposed to homosexuality as not discrimination or bias, but wisdom and truth).\nIf this were not enough, one should note the additional hypocrisy, hatred, and hidden agenda when EJ states that he would \u201cban religion completely\u201d, for while on the surface it appears he speaks openly and outright about his beliefs, what is not stated outright is that by doing so he would seek to deny man the most basic privilege and freedom not only to think for himself but to possess the opportunity and methods of approach to arrive at conclusions for himself. Compare the value systems where Christianity, which upon the principle that the Holy Spirit alone is the Lord of the conscience, UPHOLDS the freedom of each individual (while at the same time supporting government that provides, protects and defends); whereas some unbelievers not only OPPOSE the free expression of believers, but ultimately would SEEK TO TAKE AWAY our freedom to think and worship as we choose.\nNothing new here, it\u2019s been going on for ages and will continue to go on, but at the same time, it\u2019s important both apologetically and culturally that individuals not be swooned just by EJ\u2019s popularity, but see the issues, and note them for what they are.\nNew Team CS Member - Bob Vigneault\nHi, folks - I want to introduce the newest member of Team CS, Bob Vigneault.\nBob is a Moderator (and some say, male model ) for the Puritan Board. He has a couple of cool blogs, a great wit and a heart for the glory of God, as well as being creative, funny and committed to the authority of Scripture and a theistic worldview. A perfect fit!\nFor a little more insight take a look at some of his threads over on the PB and his profile there - which also links to his blogs.\nGreetings and welcome to the team, Bob!\nWhy Atheism cannot be correct - Article\nAlan Roebuck\u2019s latest essay for View from the Right takes the form of an open letter to an atheistic think tank called the Center for Inquiry, proceeded by an introduction.\nIntroduction to the ideas in the letter\nLiberalism must be opposed fundamentally, because if you accept, even tacitly, your opponent\u2019s premises, you will eventually be forced to accept his conclusions. And the philosophical foundation of liberalism is atheism, because atheism makes man the supreme being, and means that there are no absolutes.\nBut nowadays, most apologists for atheism do not call themselves atheists. They say, \u201cAtheism requires proving a universal negative, which is impossible. So I\u2019m not an atheist. I just think there\u2019s no reason to believe in a God, so I don\u2019t. Call me a naturalist [or infidel, or freethinker, or agnostic.]\u201d (But note that it is not impossible to prove a universal negative; mathematicians do it all the time.)\nMore importantly, the atheistic apologist says, \u201cSince my position does not posit the existence of anything, it is the default position. The burden of proof falls on the theist to prove a God exists, and if the proof fails, I am justified in my unbelief.\u201d The atheist then finds what he regards as flaws in each theistic proof, and believes his position is justified.\nDear Center for Inquiry:\nI have read the statements of principle on your website, and there are some things I can agree with. Postmodern relativistic irrationalism needs to be strongly rebuked by being demonstrated to be false. Furthermore, you are right to decry the widespread ignorance of and even hostility to science.\nBut the statements on your website, and your basic position of naturalism (the doctrine that nothing exists but physical entities and their properties), make some fundamental intellectual errors. These errors doom your enterprise, and explain much of the public\u2019s hostility to a scientific establishment that declares itself, erroneously, to be the acme of truth and clear thinking.\nAtheist's Atheism Examined\nMake a declaration and it may seem like you have something to say, but just because declarations are made does not mean they are substantive, sufficient, or satisfying. It behooves a person to check them out before forming conclusions and accepting them.\nThe following declarations are taken from a section of the American Atheists website entitled \"Atheism\" with my examination/responses.\nAtheism is a doctrine that states that nothing exists but natural phenomena (matter), that thought is a property or function of matter, and that death irreversibly and totally terminates individual organic units. This definition means that there are no forces, phenomena, or entities which exist outside of or apart from physical nature, or which transcend nature, or are \u201csuper\u201d natural, nor can there be. Humankind is on its own.\nI love the phrase \u201cnor can there be\u201d. How do they know? How can they prove this? If man is continuing to find things even in physical nature they did not know before (like the turbulence of the sun in today\u2019s news), how bold a claim to speak authoritatively on that which lies beyond their own experience.\nThis being said, and recognizing metaphysical realities, on one level the knowledge of God is beyond the realm of natural man (Rom 8:7); yet on another level, with regeneration and renewed ability, the knowledge of God while spiritual is within the realm of spiritual man. God may be known to man because he wants to be known and therefore reveals himself to man.\nThe following definition of Atheism was given to the Supreme Court of the United States in the case of Murray v. Curlett, 374 U.S. 203, 83 S. Ct. 1560, 10 L.Ed.2d (MD, 1963), to remove reverential Bible reading and oral unison recitation of the Lord's Prayer in the public schools.\n\u201cYour petitioners are Atheists and they define their beliefs as follows. An Atheist loves his fellow man instead of god. An Atheist believes that heaven is something for which we should work now \u2013 here on earth for all men together to enjoy.\nThis asserts either a simple declaration that atheists claim a love for man and not for God (while denying him) or it asserts a false dilemma suggesting that one must either love God or love their fellow man, when the truth is that believers love both God and their fellow man.\nAdditionally, it points out the failure of the Atheist mission, for given the continued sin, strife, suffering, misery and death experienced each day here on earth(just read the newspapers) and this has not changed overall even given the increase in knowledge and technology of man, no one is justified in suggesting there is or will be heaven on earth in the present life given the world order and condition. The truth is there will be a new heaven and a new earth, a redeemed and renewed one, but it comes not through the work of man, but through the power of him who is creator and redeemer.\nAn Atheist believes that he can get no help through prayer but that he must find in himself the inner conviction, and strength to meet life, to grapple with it, to subdue it and enjoy it.\nWhile there is truth to the fact that apart from faith one should not expect answer to prayer, at the same time one must ask the question does man have it in himself to meet life, to grapple with it, to subdue it and enjoy it? While no one denies the responsibilities, opportunities and temporal blessings man enjoys, to suggest that man can subdue life is as far fetched as to suggest that one can determine the future, to handle all that comes one\u2019s way, and even to conquer death, and this is just on the physical level which fails to take into account what it truly means to live according to holiness, etc.\nSeems a major tenet of atheism is to claim for man a sovereignty that he does not possess.\nThe truth is that believers only, can enjoy life, not only in the spiritual realm, but even as they come to receive and enjoy the blessings that whatever comes their way will work out for good, and that no matter what they face, though they may fail or fall in their own strength, that ultimately they will gain the victory through another.\nAn Atheist believes that only in a knowledge of himself and a knowledge of his fellow man can he find the understanding that will help to a life of fulfillment.\nIs it possible for an atheist to possess a knowledge of himself if he knows not where he comes from, what his purpose is, and that his end leads to and results in a forgotten nothingness? Does this type of thinking lead to a life of fulfillment?\nHe seeks to know himself and his fellow man rather than to know a god. An Atheist believes that a hospital should be built instead of a church. An Atheist believes that a deed must be done instead of a prayer said. An Atheist strives for involvement in life and not escape into death. He wants disease conquered, poverty vanquished, war eliminated. He wants man to understand and love man.\nIt\u2019s a poor man whose significance is found in his works. (It\u2019s no wonder there\u2019s such a low view of the fetus as well as others in latter stages of life or with health conditions in life by which they cannot contribute as much to society as others.)\nAnother false dichotomy in the suggestion that those who look to an afterlife possess no interest or involvement in the present life.\nIt\u2019s not a question of wanting disease conquered, poverty vanquished, war eliminated; the question is the source and method of accomplishment. Will man, who is born with a sinful nature which includes greed, selfishness, love of earthly possession, power, etc., ever accomplish these things according to the present order? Or, is a power beyond man required to accomplish this and bring it about? Believers rightly hold to the latter.\nHe wants an ethical way of life. He believes that we cannot rely on a god or channel action into prayer nor hope for an end of troubles in a hereafter.\nAnother false dichotomy to suggest that non-athiests do not want an ethical way of life.\nWhat is the standard for atheist ethics? Is there an absolute standard, or is it no more than the standard proclaimed in the past which even with progress and additional knowledge prove no more than a system which flip flops on issues such that they call good evil and evil good?\nHe believes that we are our brother's keepers; and are keepers of our own lives; that we are responsible persons and the job is here and the time is now.\u201d\nWas Cain his brother\u2019s keeper? All seemed good for a time, but when things did not go his way, he tried to set that responsibility aside. God however is the one who upholds this principle regardless of the weaknesses and sinfulness of man.\nAtheism is a failed system, which while denying the future and focusing on the present, is nothing but frustration in the face of failed principles and promises.\nJohn Piper: The Morning I Heard the Voice of God\n\"Let me tell you about a most wonderful experience I had early Monday morning, March 19, 2007, a little after six o\u2019clock.

He writes:\n\"Moreover, this concept of idolatry sheds even more light on the dynamics of our desires. Idols are counterfeit gods. As gods, they direct and rule over us. And we, in turn, worship, fear, serve, love, trust, and obey them. Like God, our idols promise and threaten us. If they get what they want, they promise us happiness. If they do not get what they want, they curse us and threaten death.\nAs counterfeit gods, idols are lawgivers. They command us. They shape our affections, direct our decisions, and motivate our behaviour. What we do, we do because we obey the command of our God.\"\nWhile God also requires full allegience and service, the difference between worshiping Yahweh (the true God) and the various idols of unbelievers is this: Yahweh's rule is one that includes love and both self denial and sacrifice for his servants.

First, the church is more than just a collection of individuals; it is the community of those united to Christ and the community of the Word and sacraments, and as such has a special place in God\u2019s redemptive plan. Thus, I take much more seriously the consensus declarations of the church (problematic as that now is, given the diversity of denominations) than the individual statements of particular theologians.\nSecond, the consensus nature of creeds and confessions is particularly attractive and important. The fact that most creeds and confessions were formulated partly in response to political pressure is often seen as bad thing, but I am not so sure that such is inevitably the case. Each year as I teach in the councils of Nicea, Constantinople and Chalcedon, students express concern at the sleazy political chicanery that lies in the background to these events; yet the fact that a creed is formulated in such situations does not make its teaching of necessity less biblically coherent, any more than my total depravity inevitably undermines my occasional attempts to preach God\u2019s word; and, on the positive side, it does mean that such creeds are no more exclusive than they have to be. Yes, they clearly rule out of bounds particular positions; but they are designed to keep as many on board as possible, and this ecumenicity of theological and ecclesiastical intention was arguably reinforced on many occasions by political expediency.\nIn short, I regard creeds as important because they are documents approved by the church, or at least by particular churches, and thus have more status than the writings of any individual Christian; they generally represent in intention a desire to reflect consensus among Christians; their negative, boundary-setting thrust means that they leave room for discussion, disagreement and thoughtful theologizing, albeit within churchly limits; and they essentially focus on the real core doctrines. In sum, I might say that they give those of us who adhere to them a place to stand both doctrinally and historically, and thus to lay our views open for appropriate public scrutiny and challenge.\nThe church must never compromise the unique authority of the Bible, must always focus on the basic essentials which cross time and space, but must also speak thoughtfully, to the here and now. Historic creeds and contemporary declarations thus both have their part to play in making the church\u2019s voice a relevant voice.\nA Church Movement that causes AWE!\nIncredible Guitar artistry!\nMedical Quackery and the Christian Skeptic\nGood thread over on the Puritan Board concerning fad cures, herbalism, chiropractic, etc...as a Christian Skeptic, we are to examine everything and keep the good - I think it is interesting how otherwise perfectly rational folk can be led into some strange stuff...\nFrom the Protestant Reformation to the Southern Baptist Convention\nWhat Hath Geneva To Do with Nashville?\nThis is a great article from Tom Ascol - Director of the Founders Ministry.\nAs disjointed as the two worlds presented in the subtitle may appear to some, there is in reality a close and vital connection between them. The relationship between the two becomes apparent when some of the main features of the Southern Baptist family tree are traced.\nWe Baptists look to the Scriptures to justify our existence, and that is just as it should be. We are a people of the Book. The Bible, and the Bible alone, is our authority. We look no further than the Scriptures to seek direction for our faith and practice. History is not our authority. Nevertheless, history can be our assistant as we try to learn from the biblical insights of those who have gone before us.\nSouthern Baptists have a rich heritage, and it stretches back hundreds of years before our actual emergence as a denomination in 1845. Our roots extend all the way back to the fertile soil of the sixteenth century Protestant Reformation.\nFrom the Protestant Reformation to 1619\nThe nineteenth century Scottish theologian William Cunningham called the Protestant Reformation \"the greatest event, or series of events, that has occurred since the close of the canon of Scripture\".(1) It was, quite simply, a great work of the Spirit of God, a revival of biblical Christianity. Without a doubt, the Reformation stands as the most significant revival since Apostolic times.\nGeneral Characteristics of the Reformation\nBefore an obscure monk named Martin Luther nailed ninety-five theses to the church door at Wittenburg on October 31, 1517, the Church of Christ had been living in spiritually dark times. The Bible had been kept from the common people. The Roman Catholic Church had largely perverted the gospel of God's grace by teaching that salvation comes from the hands of the priests through the administration of the sacraments in response to human works and merit.\nWith the dawning of the Reformation these perversions of the gospel were exposed, and a renewal of biblical Christianity emerged. Though the story of how this awakening came and spread across Europe and Great Britain is a fascinating one, we must limit ourselves in this pamphlet to an overview of what happened and leave the question of \"how\" it happened to a later study.\nWith the rediscovery of the Bible in the sixteenth century came a reawakening to God's way of salvation by grace alone through faith alone in Christ alone. In fact, that little word alone provides a real key to understanding the main themes of the Reformation. In Latin the word is sola and it was used in five phrases that capture the essence of Reformational theology.\nFive Reformation Themes\n1. Sola Scriptura: Scripture Alone\nThe Reformers taught that the Scripture alone is the final authority for what we must believe and how we must live. This view sounds commonplace to us today, but it was radical in the sixteenth century. For centuries the Roman Catholic Church had asserted its authority over against that of the Bible. The authority of the Pope, tradition, and councils were all regarded as authorities along with the Bible. Against that view, the Reformers asserted sola Scriptura: the Bible, and the Bible alone, is our only infallible source of authority for faith and practice.\n2. Sola Gratia: Grace Alone\nHow can a sinful man become right with a holy God? That is always the most important religious question. It was the question that plagued Luther's conscience and nearly drove him insane before he was converted. Rome had developed a very elaborate system in response to that question. Rome's answer involved human works and merit--a sinner must perform sufficiently well before God if he would receive the blessing of salvation.\nBut through the study of the Scriptures the Reformers rediscovered that salvation is the gracious gift of God. Man contributes nothing to it. It is only by the sheer, absolute grace of God. Bible words like election and predestination, which magnify the grace of God in salvation, were rediscovered, having been largely forgotten or drained of their meaning by the mainstream of medieval Roman Catholic teachers.(2)\n3. Sola Fide: Faith Alone\nThe Reformers taught that the means whereby a sinner is graciously justified before God is faith--not faith plus merit or faith plus works--but faith alone. Luther discovered that the Bible teaches that the sinner must place his trust in Jesus Christ in order to gain a right standing before God. Through faith alone the righteousness of Jesus Christ is imputed to the one who believes.\n4. Solo Christo: Christ Alone\nThe Reformation rejected Rome's requirement that common church members put their faith implicitly in the church's teachings. Instead, they argued, Jesus Christ alone is the proper object of faith. He is to be trusted for salvation--not priests, popes, councils, or traditions.\n5. Soli Deo Gloria: The Glory of God Alone\nIn one sense the Reformation can be seen as a rediscovery of God--a reawakening to the greatness and grandeur of the God of the Bible. It is God, not man, who belongs at the center of our thoughts and view of the world. And it is God's glory alone that is to occupy first place in our motivations and desires as His children. He created us and the world for Himself, and He redeemed us for Himself. Our purpose is to glorify Him.\nCertainly there are other truths which would need to be discussed in a thorough consideration of reformation theology, but these themes summarize the essence of Reformed thought. It is obvious that the Reformers did not invent these teachings. They simply rediscovered them in the Bible and brought them out into the light for all of God's people to experience. Baptists have been greatly influenced by these Reformed themes.\nThe Doctrine of Oprah vs. Biblical Doctrine\nOprah offers her doctrinal viewpoint that there are many ways to God - and is confronted by the truth.\nSalvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved.\"\n...and also shows why it is important to be ready with a defense!\nWhat about the native that has never heard the name of Christ?\nA good response from ComeReason.org:\nSo, we realize that we don't measure up to perfection. This is universal. I know of no culture where people feel they have never erred. We even use the expression \"You're only human\" to show that perfection cannot be attained by the human race. What makes this so condemning is that all of mankind has the means necessary to know there is a God and that they fall short of His plan. Romans 1 states this when it says \"that which is known about God is evident within them; for God made it evident to them. For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine nature have been clearly seen, being understood through what has been made, so they are without excuse.\" Paul argues here that every person of the human race has the testimony of the creation and the testimony of their own shortcomings to inform them that they do not meet God's requirements for them. Further, Paul says that man should realize the creator of the universe would be larger than the created items we find in the world (\"birds, and four-footed animals, and crawling creatures\"), but he chooses to worship them rather than Him, so \"man is without excuse.\"\nSo, because God testifies of Himself through His creation we are expected to understand that there are absolutes which we violate. However, we are not left to that attestation only. In Romans 2:12-15 it states,\n\"For all who have sinned without the Law will also perish without the Law; and all who have sinned under the Law will be judged by the Law; for not the hearers of the Law are just before God, but the doers of the Law will be justified. For when Gentiles who do not have the Law do instinctively the things of the Law, these, not having the Law, are a law unto themselves, in that they show the work of the Law written in their hearts, their conscience bearing witness, and their thoughts ultimately accusing or defending them.\"\nThis is a fascinating Scripture that explains how God has given each man a \"natural law\"; a general understanding of right and wrong. This is evident in the fact that all men are endowed with a conscience. Though the remote tribesman may have never heard of the Gospel or the Jewish Law, they all have a strong working knowledge that lying, stealing and murder of others in his tribe is wrong. Further, every person develops some type of a moral code that they judge others against. No one has ever been able to consistently keep even their own moral code without adjusting it or rationalizing their behavior. Thus God says that their thoughts will justify or condemn them.\nWhen one understands each person's true position, then the objection falls beyond debate. A prisoner sentenced to die for a capital offence can be pardoned by the Governor of his state. However, for that criminal to claim the Governor is being \"unfair\" or \"unjust\" because he refuses to pardon the felon is ridiculous. A pardon is an action of grace and mercy. Carrying out the sentence given would be justice. This is why the writer to the Hebrews remarks, \"How can we escape if we neglect so great a salvation(Heb. 2:3)?\" This salvation that we're offered is great not only because of the tremendous sacrifice that Christ made on our behalf, but it is also great because of how much we deserve punishment, and how a God who is 100% just can rescue us from His judgment.\nWe are studying this at our church as part of the Deacon training material our pastor is instituting.\nI am looking forward to reading and studying it.\nPraise God for men like John Piper!\nWow - just started reading it and this pops right out at me (emphasis mine):\nI found myself at home in these amazing words of Adolf Schlatter as he defined what he believed scholarship (die Wissenschaft) should be.\n\"I keep myself as free as possible from conjectures and avoid therefore the effort to overturn them. This does not seem like a fruitful business to me. For conjectures are not overturned by producing more of the same. They sink away when one sees that observation is more fruitful than conjecture. . . . I call Wissenschaft [scholarship] the observation of what exists (des Vorhandenen), not the attempt to imagine what is not visible. Perhaps one will object that the guesswork of conjecture excites and entertains while observation is a hard and difficult work. That\u2019s true; play is easier than work. But the Gospel is misunderstood when one makes a plaything out of it.\"\n9 Marks - Characteristics of a God-driven church\nI was doing my daily blog reading and was reminded of the 9 Marks ministry - I think they have a great mission statement and a Scripture-bounded view of church development. Take a look...\nThe Mission of 9Marks\nWe believe the local church is the focal point of God's plan for displaying his glory to the nations. Our vision is simple: Churches that reflect the character of God. Our mission is to cultivate and encourage churches characterized by these nine marks:\n1. Expositional Preaching\n2. Biblical Theology\n3. Biblical Understanding of the Good News\nThe gospel is the heart of Christianity. But the good news is not that God wants to meet people's felt needs or help them develop a healthier self-image. We have sinfully rebelled against our Creator and Judge. Yet He has graciously sent His Son to die the death we deserved for our sin, and He has credited Christ's acquittal to those who repent of their sins and believe in Jesus' death and resurrection. That is the good news.\nSponsored Worship\nSaw this on my buddy's website (the Rurban Church) thought it was pretty funny...\nThe Consumer Church\nSince much has been blogged about the institutional vs. missional church - and since the institutional church almost always manifests a consumer spirit - I thought I would give a stab at the logical manifestation of a sponsored worship service.

One More Time\" sets a challenge before Christians to \"pick any event in the past, announce that they are praying to change it, and then watch what happens.\" His argument is that if God lies outside of time, but hears the prayers of believers, then God can change the past, events like \"the Holocaust, the terrorist 9/11 attacks, or any tragic event reported in the daily newspaper.\"\nBesides the obvious question of how one would determine that God changed the past (given that the change would then be our past), Loftus' challenge is an example of either poor exegesis or faulty logic when it comes to the Scripture. Does not Loftus understand that God does not change and that the prayers that God honors are those in keeping with his will? In effect, what Loftus seeks to accomplish through his challenge is to put the burden on believers to prove the existence of God by having God answer a believer's prayer which is contrary to his will (something contrary to Scripture). This is no different than the logic used by those who in arguing against freedom of the will in light of predesitination are willing to suppose that God predestines the end but then fail to recognize that God ALSO presdestines the means to that end as well. Or better put, it can be likened to someone challenging another to prove a spouse's love for their mate by presenting evidence (or seeking to show evidence) that is contrary to love.\nLet readers beware, that often what may appear to be fine sounding arguments at first by unbelievers (even those who set themselves up as previous believers or pastors), are easily untangled and found faulty when one takes the whole truth into account. Scripture shows that one of the tactics often used by those who oppose Christ is to try to set forth a half-truth as the whole truth. Those who want to avoid deception and become mature must learn to discern and then they will not fall to those arguments which are falsely set forth as high-minded wisdom and knowledge.\nJust Say No to Drugs / Atheism\nRichard Pratt, Jr. in his book \u201cEvery Thought Captive\u201d rightly makes the irrefutable claim that all unbelievers find themselves in the inescapable dilemma of continually living in the tension of uncertain certainty and certain uncertainty. In other words, any person seeking to claim absolute certainty on any matter, while turning from God and biblical presuppositions which provide both the foundation and confidence of knowledge and truth, while not possessing full and complete knowledge of all things is left to \u201cuncertainty\u201d concerning the very things they claim with absolute or total certainty. At the same time, any person who claims uncertainty, while denying God and those same biblical presuppositions, is left contradicting himself in making certain claims of uncertainty. Pratt shows this problem to be even greater when he explains that \u201cwhen turning from God, the unbeliever asserts with absolute certainty that the biblical distinction between the Creator and His creature is false, he therefore puts on the mask of absolute certainty. Yet, when turning from God, the unbeliever is left in the position of having no solid ground for knowledge and must therefore wear the mask of total uncertainty. While an unbeliever may wear one or the other mask at different times, beneath the mask he may wear the unbeliever is caught in the unsolvable dilemma of being BOTH absolutely certain AND totally uncertain AT THE SAME TIME.\u201d Any apologist who argues with unbelievers will find this to be true and not only easy to work out but interesting as unbelievers cannot get around this truth given their lack of foundation apart from God for knowing even the things they claim to know and especially to claim any knowledge beyond their own or even the natural human experience especially including the metaphysical.\nThis being said, I\u2019d like to take this one step further, for not only is man apart from belief caught in this inescapable tension, but atheism in all its forms, and even moreso as one moves toward strong atheism leads one to participate in a constant battle within oneself to suppress the tension that naturally battles within those who resist the truth. Here\u2019s my point, while God has provided through general revelation enough to leave man without excuse, there is in the unbeliever a nature that seeks to deny and reject the truth so that the life of an unbeliever is a life of constant tension, and one of the greatest kind since it lies and is being fought within them. The only means of avoiding this tension while remaining in unbelief is to try to suppress the truth such that one\u2019s unbelief and resulting practices metaphorically speaking becomes the opium of one\u2019s soul. Hence, the greater the unbelief (i.e. strong atheism) the greater the tension and hence the greater the suppression needed to deal with the tension. This does not suggest that strong atheists cannot experience a measure of peace, but like the physical drug addict, the peace that comes from opiates is a false peace though it may at times not only provide a measure of personal comfort but even be euphoric. One must ask the question: Is this the best for the individual, or is there a solution?\u201d\nThe only solution to this conflict is to put one\u2019s faith in Christ and align one\u2019s beliefs with the truth which has been and continues to be revealed. The Scriptures provide understanding of all these matters when it states the following: \u201cThe fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and discipline.\u201d(Prov 1:7) \u201c\u2026If you hold to my teaching, you are really my disciples. Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.\u201d (Jn 8:31-32) \u201cThe fool says in his heart, \u2018There is no God.\u2019\u201d (Ps 14:1) \u201cThe sinful mind is hostile to God. It does not submit to God\u2019s law, nor can it do so.\u201d (Rom 8:7) \u201cGreat peace have they who love your law\u2026\u201d (Ps 199:165) \u201cI 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.\u201d (Jn 16:33)\nPeace, true peace, belongs only to those in whom this conflict and tension is not only dealt with, but who in dealing with it also gain the foundation and knowledge for dealing with all things while living in this age. It is only in possessing a foundation for truth that truth means anything and becomes truly meaningful and beneficial for those who possess it. With this in mind, let the readers be reminded that opiates, while they may serve a purpose for those in pain, are not necessary for those who with life and health.\nWisdom reveals that everything has a role - there ...\nSkepticism concerning the rule and motives of othe...\nFrom the Protestant Reformation to the Southern Ba...",

As of March 2017, Japan is implementing the JCM with 17 countries (Mongolia, Bangladesh, Ethiopia, Kenya, Maldives, Viet Nam, Laos PDR, Indonesia, Costa Rica, Palau, Cambodia, Mexico, Saudi Arabia, Chile, Myanmar, Thailand, and Philippines).\nMany Japanese companies have been implementing projects in developing countries utilizing the JCM Financing Programmes offered by the Japanese government and have been contributing to sustainable development through overseas development of advanced low carbon technologies while reducing burden on the developing countries. Approximately 4.6 million tons of CO2 in total is expected to be reduced by 2030.\nWhen formulating a JCM project, contributions from Japan to the developing countries will be appropriately evaluated and utilized to achieve Japan\u2019s target for GHG emissions reduction.

        "raw_content": "Ragazza December 15, 2015 BART, People of SF, Prose, Writing\nSunday morning. It\u2019s a rainy, windy, stormy day, with wet people packed into a BART car. I\u2019m on one of the trains coming from SFO, so it is full of lots and lots of tourists, all suitcases and tiredness, ready to check into their hotels and see the sights.\nA man stands by the door, the only person with lots of space around him. He tells us he is hungry. He tells us that if our fathers, our mothers, our brothers, or our sisters were hungry and had nowhere to go, we would want someone to help them. He\u2019s very matter of fact. He tells us that he doesn\u2019t even care about the money, and he tells us that the hardest thing in his day is being ignored. He tells us that even a smile or a \u201cgood luck\u201d makes a difference. He tells us if one of our kids is ever on the street, and he hopes that they never are, that we would want people to acknowledge that they exist. He says people acting like he isn\u2019t even there is the worst part of everything.\nStone faces stare ahead, painfully obvious in attempts not to look at this man, not to catch his eye. Most are hearing, how can you avoid his voice, but most don\u2019t seem to be listening. Some folks look at him only when his back is turned to them, furtive glances before he turns around again. Some have fear in their eyes. Some look weary, and some have perfected a mask of apathy. Some don\u2019t know enough English to understand what he is saying, this clean cut but somewhat strange young black man. Some folks catch the eye of their companions, or the eye of others on the train they think they have something in common with, and try not to laugh, or they exchange that look. You know the one I mean, a small widening of the eye, a small clenching of the lips.\nGood people forgetting to put their goodness into real life practice.\nIt is Sunday morning, and it strikes me that if I still went to church I might hear a similar message.The dude is basically giving a love thy neighbor sermon. The dude is in fact living a love thy neighbor sermon. What luck to meet him.\nI heave myself up, all my bags full of drums and outfits and notes for a music gig I am on my way to play. I do this all the time, that is, I talk to people in public. Stranger danger? Nah. I have good instincts. My partner pointed out recently as we watched my mom chat up some folks that I must get it from her, which I had never realized until that moment. We talk to people, and we somehow find the other people that want to talk to strangers in public, and we get to meet all sorts of folks and hear stories that we wouldn\u2019t otherwise. Thanks mom, for never giving me a fear of talking to strangers.\nBecause of this, and maybe you know what I am about to say because you talk to strangers, too, I can tell you there is always this moment where the other folks who saw you as one of them realize you are going to engage with the other, and they turn against you. Suddenly maybe you are a little crazy, too, the wonder \u2018what is she going to do\u2019, there is a fission and a bit of excitement and fear and a sense of total awareness of being watched, even as they won\u2019t look you in the eye now, either. I hand the dude a a couple bucks and quietly say \u2018Thanks for the words and reminders, stay dry, and good luck\u2019. He smiles and says \u2018Thank you\u2019, I sit back down. No big whoop, a normal day in San Francisco. No one on the train moves. We are in a car full of statues surrounded by huge suitcases, like armor.\nHe is getting off at Civic Center, and as we get closer to his stop he tells us he knows how to say thank you in 13 languages, and then he proves it before he walks off the train, head held high.\nstay human stayhuman talking to strangers",

        "raw_content": "HomeViewsColumnsTrump and The Intentions of the Twenty-Fifth Amendment to the Constitution\nOctober 12, 2018 Glen Asher Columns 0\nIn the recent New York Times anti-Trump op-ed piece by a White House insider there was this interesting paragraph:\nThe Twenty-Fifth Amendment to the Constitution is one that Main Street America rarely hears about, unlike the Second Amendment which guarantees the freedom to bear arms, the Fourth Amendment which guarantees the right to be secure against unreasonable searches and seizures, the Eighteenth Amendment which is best known for enforcing prohibition and the Nineteenth Amendment which gave women the right to vote.\nThe Twenty-Fifth Amendment reads as follows:\nThis amendment is designed to ensure the integrity of the office of President and the continuity of government in certain specific cases.\nThe need for the Twenty-Fifth Amendment became apparent after the deal of John F. Kennedy and prescribes the order for presidential succession, how a Vice President is replaced if he/she leaves office and the mechanism for removing a President from power if he/she is deemed unable to serve for the remainder of their term. The Amendment was submitted to the states on July 6, 1965, was adopted by Congress on February 10, 1967 and signed into law by President Lyndon Johnson on February 23, 1967. Interestingly, it took the 47 states that have ratified the Amendment 584 days to do so (from July 12, 1965 to May 25, 1967). Three states have not ratified the Amendment; Georgia, North Dakota and South Carolina, however, since only three-quarters of states need to ratify an Amendment so that it becomes part of the Constitution, their ratification is not really necessary.\nIn the case of Donald Trump, it is the third and fourth sections of the Amendment that are key. Let\u2019s look at them in turn:\n1.) Section 3: This section sets out the formal process for determining the capacity of the president to remain in office. In this case, the President submits a written declaration to the President pro tempore of the Senate (currently Orrin Hatch) and the Speaker of the House of Representatives (currently Paul Ryan) that he/she is unable to discharge the duties of the office of President and that, until notified otherwise in writing, the Vice President will take over the duties as Acting President. Prior to the signing of the 25th Amendment, nine presidents had experienced health issues that left them temporarily unable to fulfill the duties of their office; William Henry Harrison, Zachary Taylor, Abraham Lincoln, James Garfield, William McKinley, Woodrow Wilson, Warren Harding, Franklin Roosevelt and Dwight Eisenhower with six of these presidents dying while in office. This section of the Amendment has never been used with the near exception of Ronald Reagan who was incapacitated while he underwent surgery for a gunshot wound that he received during a failed assassination attempt on March 30, 1981. Even during that event, there was no designation of a replacement President.\n2.) Section 4: This section, which has also never been used, sets out the process for removing a President that is deemed incompetent from office. Unlike Section 3 where the President unilaterally determines their capacity, in Section 4, the Vice President and Congress have the ability to remove the President if, in their determination, he/she is unfit for office and unable to fulfill their duties. The Vice President will then assume the duties of the President as Acting President, however, the President can still defend himself/herself as follows:\n\u201cThereafter, when the President transmits to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives his written declaration that no inability exists, he shall resume the powers and duties of his office unless the Vice President and a majority of either the principal officers of the executive department (currently 8 out of 15 Secretaries) or of such other body as Congress may by law provide, transmit within four days to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives their written declaration that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office. Thereupon Congress shall decide the issue, assembling within forty-eight hours for that purpose if not in session. If the Congress within twenty-one days after receipt of the latter written declaration, or, if Congress is not in session within twenty-one days after Congress is required to assemble, determines by two-thirds vote of both Houses that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office, the Vice President shall continue to discharge the same as Acting President; otherwise, the President shall resume the powers and duties of his office.\u201d\nAccording to the Brookings Institute, it is procedurally more difficult to use the 25th Amendment to remove a President from office than it is to use the impeachment mechanism. Impeachment requires a simple majority in the House and a two-thirds majority in the Senate. The Twenty-Fifth Amendment requires a two-thirds vote in both houses. Impeachment is also seen as a less palatable way to remove an ill President from office, particularly when that President has been perfectly functional up to that point in time.\nAs I noted above, Section 4 has never been used, although it was considered in 1987 when Ronald Reagan appeared to have lost interest in the job of President, was inattentive and indecisive. As we now know, President Reagan was suffering from the early stages of dementia during the latter part of his second term in office.\nIf you are interested, here is a brief video which summarizes the Twenty-Fifth Amendment and how it can be used:\nGiven the ongoing controversy regarding the Trump presidency it will be interesting to see whether Donald Trump becomes the first President of the United States to experience Section 4 of the Twenty-fifth Amendment of the Constitution It certainly appears as though at least some of his inner circle have considered its use.\nEst\u00e9e Lauder Is Suing To Kick Brandon Truaxe Out Of Deciem\nChinese Beancurd with Vegetables Recipe\nCourtney Love\u2019s Twitter Fever Got Her In Trouble Again\nObsession: What Liberace Had In Common With Calvin Klein!\nGwyneth Paltrow\u2019s Life Isn\u2019t Perfect, After All\nIndian Cooking Recipe : Stuffed Onions\nThe House Just Voted To Allow States To Defund Planned Parenthood Protections\nThis Adored Teen Mall Brand A\u00e9ropostale Just Filed For Bankruptcy\nThis week: June 27, 2011\nBritney Spears Without The Raccoon Eyes And Matted Hair\nDon\u2019t Bother Denzel Washington When He\u2019s Shopping",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb News \u00bb Minority Lawyers Hanging From Their Own Bootstraps How Law Schools Fail Those Who Seek Justice\nMinority Lawyers Hanging From Their Own Bootstraps How Law Schools Fail Those Who Seek Justice\nLaw school applications are up this year in what some are calling a \u201cTrump Bump,\u201d since around a third of applicants were inspired to apply by Trump\u2019s election. Nearly half of them identify themselves as members of a minority group. They\u2019ve seen lawyers fighting Trump administration policies that discriminate against their communities and want to do the same. If these minority applicants succeed, they could change the balance of power in American society. If they fail, they will find themselves crushed under a lifetime of debt. But few are aware that they are taking this enormous gamble in a rigged game.\nOn average, minority students end up in lower-ranked law schools, which they pay more to attend than white students, resulting in higher debt burdens. Minority law graduates have lower bar exam passage rates, employment rates, and income levels. Given the intense competition for paid social justice positions, few of them will end up in careers where they can support themselves while fighting for the ideals that brought them to law school in the first place.\nLegal education has failed and will continue to fail minorities. This shouldn\u2019t be surprising, since the entire American system of restricting admission to the practice of law has long been designed, explicitly or implicitly, to exclude minorities. Nowadays, of course, minorities are no longer simply prohibited from entering law school. Instead, the system loads many of them with staggering debt before killing their hopes, leaving them hanging from the very bootstraps they had hoped to use to rise.\nAttack on the Night Schools\nIf you want to practice law today, you minimally have to graduate from college, then law school, and then pass a state bar examination. This is a far cry from 1851, when, in the grip of the anti-elitist ideals of Jacksonian democracy, Indiana declared that all of its citizens were entitled to practice law, the only requirement being \u201cgood moral character.\u201d Not until 1932 did that state concede that its lawyers might need some other training \u2015 and this wasn\u2019t as unusual as it might seem. Before the turn of the twentieth century, the vast majority of America\u2019s lawyers had never attended the few law schools that then existed. (Most of them had not gone to college and some hadn\u2019t even completed high school.) Instead, like Abe Lincoln, most apprenticed in a lawyer\u2019s office and read up on state laws before passing a short oral bar exam. Apprentices had to persuade a lawyer to take them on, had to pay him, and could not perform other work to support themselves while apprenticing.\nThe early twentieth century saw an explosion of new law schools founded to serve the needs of those for whom such conditions were daunting, especially minorities, recent immigrants, and women. Generally located in urban centers, those schools charged low tuition and were staffed with practicing lawyers who taught after working hours, so that their students could earn a living.\nThere was widespread horror at the prospect of night schools allowing a horde of undesirables to become lawyers who might charge cheaper fees and so undercut mainstream attorneys. As a result, the Association of American Law Schools, representing the more expensive, university-affiliated institutions, banded together with the American Bar Association (ABA) to campaign for states to raise the requirements for aspiring lawyers. The target: keeping minorities out of the profession.\nShortly after World War I, for instance, a New York lawyer argued that it was \u201cabsolutely necessary\u201d to require law school applicants to have attended college or the country wouldn\u2019t have lawyers \u201cable to read, write, and talk the English language \u2015 not Bohemian, not Gaelic, not Yiddish.\u201d Similarly, at a 1929 ABA meeting, a member claimed that the majority of complaints received by the Philadelphia Bar Association concerned \u201cRussian Jew boys\u201d and insisted that \u201cthese fellows that come up out of the gutter\u201d be required to complete a college education to \u201cabsorb the American ideals.\u201d\nThe process of restricting admission to the bar took decades. In 1923, although most aspiring lawyers attended law school, no state required them to do so. Only in the post-World War II years did all but a handful of states insist upon a law degree for everyone who wanted to practice in the legal system. Meanwhile, the ABA would be appointed the accrediting body for law schools in almost all jurisdictions and the cheaper, more accessible night schools would either close up shop or transform themselves into elite clones as best they could \u2015 and raise their tuitions to match.\nWhy do Minority Law Students Pay More for Worse Educations?\nIn 1968, the year Martin Luther King, Jr., was assassinated, only 1% of American lawyers were black. Other minority groups had so few lawyers that the numbers weren\u2019t even tallied. Since then, those figures have steadily increased, but the percentage of minority students in the elite law schools that offer the best chances for a prestigious, well-compensated career remains far lower than at non-elite ones. (The same has been true of women: while, in 2016, female law students outnumbered males for the first time, only six of the top 20 law schools had at least half-female student bodies.)\nThe reason: Law School Admission Test (LSAT) scores. Minority and underprivileged students have consistently had lower average LSATs than white and wealthier test takers, even when other ways of measuring their abilities and achievements did not show a difference. There has been much debate about the causes of this score gap. The expense of the preparation courses that teach LSAT-taking skills is certainly one reason. Others suggest that the test itself has hidden racial biases, since it calls for analyses that might be performed differently by those with different backgrounds. (Or perhaps not so hidden: as late as 1986, LSAT takers had to answer questions about a reading passage set in a country where slavery was legal, featuring slaves who insisted that they found their condition \u201cextremely pleasant.\u201d)\nThe LSAT score gap means that American law schools have developed a kind of educational apartheid: minorities disproportionately end up at lesser law schools. In 2017, for instance, Arizona Summit Law School topped the charts as America\u2019s most diverse law school, while also earning another record: worst bar passage rate. Only around 27% of its graduates passed the bar exam on their first try and only 34% landed long-term, full-time legal jobs. The ABA put the school\u2019s accreditation status on probation, but Arizona Summit is now suing the ABA, claiming unfairness in the decision, which has indeed put its ability to attract new students in jeopardy.\nMinority students generally pay more for the privilege of going to these lesser schools, again thanks to the LSAT. Schools offer merit scholarships to students with high scores in order to increase their rankings. Lower-scoring students pay full sticker price and so, in essence, fund those scholarships, which tend to go to a wealthier, less diverse group of students in what some critics have dubbed a reverse Robin Hood effect.\nExploitation Disguised as Opportunity\nElie Mystal, an iconoclastic legal pundit, counsels law school hopefuls that of America\u2019s more than 200 law schools, \u201cthere are maybe 20 schools that are worth paying full price for. There are maybe another 20 schools that are worth it if you are getting reduced, in-state tuition. And that\u2019s being extremely generous.\u201d So why do so many minority students end up at lesser schools that offer them a significantly lower chance of success? In his recent book Law Mart: Justice, Access, and For-Profit Law Schools, law professor Riaz Tejani dissects the way low-ranked law schools market themselves to students with low LSAT scores by promising to provide \u201caccess to justice.\u201d Accepting students who will largely fail to get legal jobs in the name of allowing them the opportunity to access a legal education is, Tejani claims, symptomatic of a neoliberal model of legal education, which offers \u201csocial inclusion\u201d at a steep price \u201cdevoid of social protectionism.\u201d\nThe profits to be made from marginal students are significant, since tuition hardly varies between law schools regardless of their quality. Indeed, in 2011, New York Law School, which ranked in the lowest tier of such institutions, was charging more than Harvard Law School. The 2010 graduating class of the Western Michigan University Cooley Law School, another bottom-tier institution, had a total debt of more than $87 million. Nearly all of this borrowing was from federal loan programs and, given Cooley\u2019s dismal employment statistics, it\u2019s likely that taxpayers will have to cover the significant portion that will never be repaid. Despite such statistics, the class Cooley enrolled in 2017 was the third largest in the country, behind only Georgetown and Harvard.\nThe average graduate will have taken on more than $100,000 in debt (the amount a woman crowd-sourced last year to pay off what she owed after law school in order to achieve her new goal of becoming a cloistered nun). Such a debt is a far heavier burden for minorities, since the lists of schools with the highest proportion of them and of those with the lowest percentage of graduates employed in full-time legal jobs show considerable overlap. For example, in 2015, Charlotte School of Law had the fourth highest percentage of African-American students among law schools (36%) and also the highest percentage of 2016 graduates who were either unemployed, employed in temporary or part-time work, or working in nonprofessional jobs (59.12%). (Charlotte abruptly shut down in 2017, after the ABA put it on probation.) The few minority lawyers who obtain high-paying legal jobs have overwhelmingly gone to a top law school. Three-quarters of current black law firm partners went to one of the top 12 law schools, and nearly half went to either Harvard or Yale.\nIn a book widely considered to have launched the ongoing debate about the future of law schools, Brian Tamanaha notes that \u201cperversely, the United States has an oversupply of law graduates at the same time that a significant proportion of the populace \u2015 the poor and lower middle class \u2015 go without legal assistance.\u201d This \u201cjustice gap\u201d is, in part, the result of the high cost of legal education. Even those who went to law school to help members of their community regularly find themselves unable to afford to do so \u2015 if they want to meet their monthly loan payments.\nAccess to affordable legal services offers a small but crucial boost to families struggling against poverty and discrimination. As studies like Matthew Desmond\u2019s Evicted: Poverty and Profit in the American City demonstrate, those who have no choice but to represent themselves face large financial, social, and emotional costs in the overwhelmingly likely event that they lose in housing court or when trying to obtain debt relief or pre-trial release or a restraining order. Society as a whole then pays the price for the associated loss of productivity and the cost of baseless or useless incarceration. Affordable representation can quite literally be a matter of life and death. As Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg has pointed out, \u201cPeople who are well represented at trial do not get the death penalty.\u201d\nThere have been a number of proposals to lower the cost of becoming a lawyer, including by making law school shorter, returning to an apprenticeship model, or establishing programs to train \u201clegal technicians\u201d in limited areas of the law. But while you could fight evictions effectively with cheaper and briefer legal training, you\u2019ll never become a judge that way. For such positions, the broad, theory-based education offered by law schools is a virtual necessity. Critics, in fact, worry that a return to shorter, lower-cost programs would harden what already looks like educational apartheid. Minority applicants could be dumped into the equivalent of vocational programs and left without hope of rising to the sorts of positions of power in which change might begin to be implemented within the legal system.\nSolutions are not simple, but change is clearly needed in areas ranging from admissions standards and law school coursework to the nature of the bar exam itself \u2015 and that undoubtedly only begins to touch on the deeper biases embedded in the system. In his prescient 1977 book, Unequal Justice: Lawyers and Social Change in Modern America, historian Jerold Auerbach argued that biases in the legal profession have \u201cparticularly serious consequences\u201d in a country where we depend on lawyers to interpret and implement the principle of equal justice under the law. The difference that the rise in the number of female judges has made is already evident. For one thing, male judges are 10 percent more likely than female ones to rule against sex-discrimination claims.\nImagine, then, what a difference more minority judges might make. Unless the current system of education changes, however, that difference will remain a figment of the legal imagination.\nErin L.

The PA Farm Show is one of the largest events here in south central Pennsylvania and attracts thousands of visitors from all over the area every year.\nThe art deco style carousel was manufactured by the Allan Herschell Company in 1946 and was purchased by S & S Amusements and is housed in North Tonawanda (outside of Buffalo), New York. It is used throughout Pennsylvania, New York and the neighboring states at carnivals, fairs and expos.\nThe Pennsylvania Farm Show Merry Go Round is 60 years old and features 30 carousel horses and 2 chariot bench seats. Rides cost $2.00 per person. It first opened to the public back in 1946 and millions of riders have enjoyed it over the years.\nThe Allan Herschell Company specialized in manufacturing amusement rides, roller coasters and beautiful carousels (merry-go-rounds). The majority of these rides were designed to be portable and were used by traveling carnivals all over the United States.\nThe company is famous for their amusement rides and now you can learn the history and see some of these vintage rides by visiting The Herschell Carrousel Factory Museum in New York. This is a seasonal museum, so check out their web site for their hours of operation and driving directions.\n* Note: The photos featured in this post were taken by us at the 2015 Pennsylvania Farm Show.\nLabels: New York, Pennsylvania",

        "raw_content": "Bold Eagle will enter the most important trotting race of the world as clear favourite and it would be a major surprise, would he not pass the line as winner. Against horses of his own age he proved a different class, most recently he also outclassed his older competitors in the Prix de Belgique. But even though Bold Eagle seems from another planet, so far he has won nothing. In the Prix d'Am\u00e9rique much depends on how the race is run, a good position in the field and of course luck is needed too.\nSerious opponents are not hard to find, still old stagers like Timoko or Up And Quick should not be underestimated. The later is the title defender. He did not really convince the recent weeks, but actually does not need to be in top form before the big race.\nLast years runner-up Voltigeur De Myrt should be on the short-list too, as well as experienced players like Ti\u00e9go d'Etang and Un Mec d'H\u00e9ripr\u00e9 or talented youngster like Lionel and Bird Parker.\n20 victories from 23 starts is the impressive record of Bold Eagle. The only five year old did not find challengers at his own age, won the Grand Prix d'UET by five length in October and also was a different class when captured the Crit\u00e9rium Continental at the end of last year.\nThe son of the two times Am\u00e9rique-winner Ready Cash seems to get driven like a car. He is able to go every pace and easily accelerates at any time, so many experts think he will be the dominating trotter the next years.\nOn January 17 he then faced older horses for the first time in the Prix de Belgique. Though he had a perfect race and several of his opponents did not go hundred percent, his performance was so impressive again, that it is hard to imagine he will not win the Prix d'Am\u00e9rique. However, no horse with the number 10 has won the Am\u00e9rique since forty years.\nBold Eagle's most dangerous opponents might be found among the older and experienced horses. At the top of that list obviously stands the winner of the 2015 Prix d\u2019Am\u00e9rique Up And Quick. He took part in the last three 'B-races' but only used them to build up his form. In fact he never really seemed like an upcoming Am\u00e9rique-winner the recent weeks, still we should not forget that his trainer Franck Leblanc knows how to get him in top form straight to the point.\nAnother strong veteran is Timoko, an impressive winner of the Prix de Bourgogne at the beginning of this year. The nine-year-old got third in last year's Prix d\u2019Am\u00e9rique, he had his greatest successes over shorter distances though, like the Prix de Bourgogne (2.100 m), 2015 Prix de France (2.100 m), 2014 Elitloppet (1.609 m), 2011 Crit\u00e9rium Continental (2.100 m).\nA horse that also belongs on the short-list is Voltigeur De Myrt. Last year he became runner-up in the Prix d\u2019Am\u00e9rique as a 99:1 rank outsider, won the Prix Ren\u00e9 Balli\u00e8re in June and just showed good form at the right time when ended second in the Prix de Belgique.\nIt would be quite a surprise, if any other trotter would win the 2016 Prix d\u2019Am\u00e9rique, the other horses will rather focus on the placings.\nThe eight year old Un Mec d'H\u00e9ripr\u00e9 had outclassed Uhlan Du Val and Up And Quick in the 2012 Crit\u00e9rium Continental. After an almost one year break he returned at the end of last year, won the Prix de Bourbonnais in December and gave a strong impression in the Prix de Belgique too.\nEven one year older is Ti\u00e9go d'Etang, who already took part in the Prix d\u2019Am\u00e9rique three times. Last Sunday he entered the Prix de Cornulier as favourite but disappointed on the seventh place.\nAkim Du Cap Vert won the Prix de Bretagne in November and ended third in the Prix Tenor de Baune afterwards. The son of First De Retz had won the Crit\u00e9rium des 4 Ans in 2014, he would prefer a fast run race on Sunday.\nThe mentioned Prix Tenor de Baune for the five-year-olds was won by the Norwegian horse Lionel ahead of Robert Bi. The former fifth of the 2014 Norsk Travderby did not look particularly well in the Prix de Belgique, but that was the first time he met older horses.\nAnother young talent with a bright future is Bird Parker, like Bold Eagle a son of Ready Cash. He got beaten by his half-brother in the Crit\u00e9rium Continental, but did very well when finished fifth in the Prix de Belgique, giving the impression to even do better soon.\nWith Support Justice Norway are having another strong contender, who had won the \u00c5by Stora Pris (1.640 m) in August. Most recently he did not do very well in the Prix de Belgique, but that was his first race after a four month break, so he should do better in the Prix d\u2019Am\u00e9rique.\nSweden will be represented by the former Svenskt Travderby winner Mosaique Face, who ended runner-up in the 2015 Elitloppet. Lutfi Kolgjini's charge never got on well with the Vincennes track, still we can expect one or two attacks of his stormy driver.\nBack from an US-trip Oasis Bi gave a strong performance in the Prix de Belgique, still a place in the Prix d\u2019Am\u00e9rique would be quite a surprise.\nWith his eight years Univers De Pan already gained 1,5 million Euro and got third in the Prix de Bourgogne at the beginning of 2016. Still he will enter the race as outsider, just as Viking De Val, who got disqualified the last four races.\nAlso in Italy they hold a hope. The ten year old Moses Rob became runner-up in the Prix du Bourbonnai with a strong finish, also made in in the placing in the Prix de Bourgogne, where he got disqualified afterwards though.\nFor the first time since ten years two horses take part in the Prix d'Am\u00e9rique that have not won more than 500,000 Euro. The chances of the mare Nephenta Lux, also from Italy, and Athos Des Elfes are little therefore.\nHowever, several times horses with high odds managed it under the first three of the Prix d'Am\u00e9rique the recent years, so it could make sense to have a small stake on one of the outsiders.\nAge Driver Time Odds\n13.

        "raw_content": "View the full expedition report. See a selection of expedition images. Watch the expedition movies. Read the article in Climb Magazine.\nWe were successful in summiting 8 Antarctic mountains, five of which were previously unclimbed, two were very significant peaks above 2000m, and one, at over 2400m, was over 1000m higher than on the maps.\nAfter crossing the Drake Passage aboard the yacht \u2018Spirit of Sydney\u2019 we sheltered from bad weather at Port Lockroy, where a warm-up ascent was made of Jabet Peak. The expedition then headed to the Lemaire Channel, where the climbers were dropped off in Deloncle Bay, and, using skis, hauled sleds for 2 days up the Hotine Glacier to place a camp at 850m. From here, in partial cloud, the first ascent was made of Mt Nygren (1454m) via its beautiful east ridge. This prominent mountain stands alone between the Hotine and Leay Glaciers, and gave a very enjoyable day\u2019s climbing.\nThe following day, with cloudbase just below the summits, the team skied across the Leay Glacier to the base of the north side of an unnamed peak that is erronously labelled Mt Shackleton on the British Antarctic Survey maps. The broken north face was climbed to gain the east ridge, which was followed to the top.\nAbove: Mt Shackleton (right) and the un-named and unclimbed summit to the left, guarded by massively crevassed glaciers.\nUsing a perfect weather window, the team then made the first ascent of Mt Matin via the SW ridge. This mountain, which was named by Charcot after the Swiss newspaper, and which is given the height of 1360m on the map, was found to be over 1000m higher at 2415m, making it one of the highest, and possibly even the highest, summit on the northern Antarctic Peninsula mainland.\nAbove: Mt Matin (2415m), which dominates the skyline when looking south from Port Lockroy.\nCamp was then moved to the base of Mt Cloos, which forms the steep east side of the infamous Lemaire Channel, and ascents were made of the south and north (main) summits, the latter given steep and somewhat threatened climbing up the edge of an active serac band.\nAfter a successful pick-up by Spirit of Sydney and a day\u2019s resting and sea kayaking in Pleneau Bay, the yacht was trapped in heavy ice, from which it had had an exciting time escaping. On the south side of the Ferguson Channel at the entrance to Paradise Harbour the third ascent was made of Mt Banck, before sitting out bad weather and then re-locating to Andvord Bay.\nFive climbers were dropped off, in very challenging conditions, on the south shore at Steinheil Point, and after working their way through an icefall, camped below Dallmeyer Peak. From here, as the strong winds eased, they climbed 1500m to make the first ascent of Mt Inverleith (2038m) via the broken north face, from where the views of the Antarctic Peninsula were breathtaking. With a storm rapidly approaching the team struck camp the following morning and, after being picked up by Spirit of Sydney, headed to the sheltered anchorage at Port Lockroy.\nOnce the storm had passed, we set sail into the Drake Passage, and rounded Cape Horn three days later before mooring for a day at Puerto Williams (Chile), and then on to Ushuaia (Argentina).\nSpirit of Sydney is a 60ft aluminium-hulled yacht that was built as a single-handed racing yacht for the 1986 BOC Challenge Race. Skippered by Cath Hew and Darrel Day, she is a very strong, capable and fast expedition yacht that is well suited to work in the Antarctic.\nPhil travelled on Spirit with Cath and Darrel in 2009, when plans to organise a serious mountaineering expedition started to come together.\nThe Expedition Team\nIn addition to Phil Wickens (Leader), Darrel Day and Cath Hew (Skippers), the climbing team were an immensely experienced group of mountaineers from the Alpine Club - Mike Fletcher, Oly Metherell, Stu Gallagher, Richmond MacIntyre, Derek Buckle and Dave Wynne-Jones.",

        "raw_content": "Lonely, Lazy, or Both\nI've found that being a stay-at-home mom brings with it an abundance of joy, laughter, memories, and entertaining stories that I could write several books on. What I've also found though, is that it comes with its share of challenges as well. While having the privilege to stay at home with my children, I've quickly discovered that I'm often lonely. I miss having adult conversations, getting out of the house more than twice a week, and having a full time job where I feel like I'm making a difference and contributing to our family. Let me pause here to say, Yes, I know I'm making a difference in my children's lives by sacrificing those things to be at home with them. That's not what I'm saying. But the reality is that I miss working outside the house more than just a few hours a week. I miss feeling productive and like I contribute more than in the sense of \"Yippee, I got the dishes done.\" I miss having a reliable paycheck and subsequently all that came with that.\nI often grow weary of being at home with no one to talk to other than a 9 month old and a 2 year old who thinks a good conversation is \"Mommy, eat.\" Unlike many stay-at-home moms, I don't have the benefit of having some large organization around here that's Christian based whose focus is on stay-at-home moms. While there are a few groups, they're not particularly ones I'm interested in for a variety of reasons, one mainly being that they're not Christian oriented. Many, but not all, of the friends I once had are now more of acquaintances than buddies. And thus the result is often being lonely and feeling like my sole purpose is \"wife and mother\". I know those are the two greatest callings I have in life, but if I'm honest, there are days that I also want to be more than that.\nWhen I feel like this, I often find myself being lazy. I just don't want to do anything. I grow weary in knowing that everyday that I wake up I pretty much already know what the day is going to contain: changing diapers, feeding kiddos, washing dishes, doing laundry, and picking up truckloads of toys all day long - things that never really end and always miraculously reappear. Could it be that 7 years of college and 2 degrees has brought me to this point? What ever happened to feeling accomplished, productive, educated, and useful?\nThe answer lies here within. I can still feel accomplished. I can still feel productive. I'm still an educated woman and still useful. But the answer isn't in relishing in what used to be or what could be, but rather in seeing the purpose in what I do each day. My purpose is to raise two children who love and honor God. To instill in them morals and values that will benefit them throughout their entire lives. It's to nurture and care for them and show them what a family is all about. My purpose is in being the best wife and mother I can be. And despite there being difficult days, I can rest in knowing that at days end, I'm fulfilling to the best of my ability the purposes that God has put in my life at this time and place.\ngood post phoebe-thanks for sharing!",

        "raw_content": "Dr Valeria Rueda Receives Grant from John Fell Fund to Support New Research Project\nDr Valeria Rueda, the Rokos Career Development Fellow in Economics at Pembroke College, recently received a grant from the John Fell Fund (JFF) for her research.\nThe JFF is an early career grant from the University of Oxford, which will enable Dr Rueda to launch a research project that considers the consequences of early 20th century missionary activity on the HIV epidemic in sub-Saharan Africa. The project is part of an ongoing collaboration with Dr Julia Cag\u00e9, Assistant Professor of Economics in the Department of Economics at Sciences Po, Paris. The pair are currently analysing the persisting consequences of missionary activity on development from a range of perspectives.\nOver the 20th century, missionaries pioneered the development of modern medicine in sub-Saharan Africa. The amount they invested in this area is much larger than what was conducted by any other colonial power. It is for this reason that missionary activity is often associated with improved health outcomes in many regions of the world.\nDr Rueda notes that Christian missions may have impacted the HIV epidemic in another way: by changing sexual morals and behaviours of the people groups they encountered. In sub-Saharan Africa, some Christian groups are outwardly against the use of contraception, and there is a strong stigmatization of HIV-positive individuals. These attitudes and beliefs mean that it is difficult to promote safe-sex education and screening programs.\nDr Rueda said: \u2018In this project, we will quantify the HIV prevalence today around historical locations of missionary stations and hospitals and compare it to similar regions. The goal is to quantify the, possibly conflicting, effects of missionary presence on HIV today.\u2019\nSpeaking about the grant, she said, \u2018the grant will help me launch a series of new archival investigations, as well as digitising and geocoding missionary investments. This is going to be particularly useful for a few sources on Catholic missionaries, which I had not investigated before.\nI consider the Christian expansion in the late 19th century as a form of \u201cspiritual imperialism\u201d that is lesser-studied in Economics in comparison to colonisation. This grant will help me extend the database of Christian missions and investments I started constructing a few years ago. I\u2019m eager to get started.\u2019\nDr Valeria Rueda, Rokos Career Development Fellow in Economics, Pembroke College, Oxford\nImages from Dr Rueda\u2019s archival research",

        "title": "Pocketburgers.com: 13 Mysteries LOST Never Explained",
        "raw_content": "By Chris Littler\nFrom: http://blog.koldcast.tv/\nMysteries LOST Never Explained\nLost is a show about the survivors of a plane crash living on an island. No, wait. It\u2019s about survivors of a plane crash living on an island, trying to get away from an evil monster made out of smoke. No, wait. The smoke monster is being controlled by a mysterious group of people who have lived on the island for years. Natch. Decades. Natch. A thousand years. And there\u2019s a hatch now. And the island also has mystical properties that allow people to heal. But those properties are being controlled by a set of rules that are made by two mysterious figures who represent two sides of mankind and are at war with one another for really silly reasons. Also, there\u2019s a cabin in the jungle that keeps on moving. Oh, and we almost forgot \u2014 the island can also travel through time.\nLost isn\u2019t really a show about anything. Or, if you look at it upside-down, it\u2019s a show about everything. Over the course of six seasons, Lost transformed from a simple story about people struggling to survive in surreal circumstances into a show obsessed with its own mythology. As the episodes went on, there was less and less about what the characters wanted and more repositioning of the characters so that they could be in the right place at the right time to learn something about the universe. Luckily for us viewers, the universe of Lost is extremely interesting and complex \u2013 kind of like the world of Hard Drive 13, a very Lost-ian series about a young computer hacker uncovering a galaxy-wide conspiracy theory.\nLost has come to an end, and with it, several mysteries that were posited early on in the series were left unsolved. Fans who cried out for answers were thrown a few scraps and told to tune in to Fringe. We decided that it\u2019s time to get off our hammocks, sift through the expansive Lost mythology, and demand an answer to the most dangly of the dangling threads.\n1. What caused Walt\u2019s powers?\nWe learn early on that Walt has special powers (other than his proclivity for being captured). He can make things appear using only his mind. Like in \u201cSpecial\u201d when he asks his father to look at the picture of a bronze cuckoo clock and a bronze cuckoo crashes into their apartment window. Or when he says a number in backgammon and rolls it. Coincidence? Not likely. Most Lost theorists say that Walt\u2019s powers derive from the same thing that gave Desmond his powers: a prolonged exposure to electromagnetic energy.\n2. What caused The Incident? The drilling or the bomb?\nThe Incident is alluded to a great deal in the early seasons as the reason the hatch exists. If not for The Incident, then no one would have to push the button. If the button isn\u2019t pushed, then the world will end. We find out later that The Incident is when a time-travelling Jack and Company detonate a nuclear weapon at the bottom of a well hosting a pocket of electromagnetic energy, releasing a huge quantity of it. But we\u2019re not quite sure what happens next. Or if the bomb or the drilling is what caused The Incident to occur. Did the bomb do anything? And if it did, why are there no traces of it in current times?\n3. Who was shooting at our heroes in the outrigger during their time travels?\nWithout the supplementary materials that come with the complete set on DVD, we\u2019d have no idea that the outrigger crew chasing Juliet, while she was traveling through time, were members of the Black Rock crew. It\u2019s a small bone thrown to fans who were clamoring to know why someone in a boat would fire without warning. It seemed like they were trying to kill them with great intent. Apparently, this is one thing that the show\u2019s producers had an answer to, but decided not to follow up on for the sake of telling a better story. To quote Damon Lindelof:\n\u201c\u2026we started talking about paying that off this season, it felt like the episode was at the service of closing the time loop, as opposed to what the characters might actually be doing in that scenario. It never felt organic. We decided we would rather take our lumps from the people who couldn\u2019t scratch that itch than to produce an episode that was in service of putting people in an outrigger and getting shot at.\u201d\n4. Who killed all the Ajira passengers and why?\nIn the episode \u201cRecon,\u201d we finally see what happened to the remaining passengers on the Ajira flight that brought the Oceanic 6 back to the island: they died. These poor people, who had no idea what they were getting into when they booked their tickets, ended up rotting on the beach. And they weren\u2019t even given the proper respect of having on-screen deaths either. We can kind of assume that the Man in Black killed them all, but there\u2019s no real reason he\u2019d have to. It\u2019s not like they were posing a threat to him. He\u2019d have to have done it purely out of boredom.\n5. How was the cabin able to change locations?\nThere\u2019s a mysterious cabin in the middle of the jungle where a powerful man named Jacob is supposed to live. We learn later on that Ben Linus, who leads Locke to the cabin in the first place, has no idea where Jacob really is, or what he looks like, or what he wants, and that Jacob left the cabin a long time ago. We can even gleam from sparse details that Smoke Monster, aka Man in Black, lived in the cabin after Jacob left it. But we never learn how the cabin is so good at switching locations. It\u2019s there one minute, gone the next. Are we meant to assume that the Smoke Monster is moving the cabin from one place to the next? It\u2019s been two thousand years. You think the guy would settle down.\n6. Why did Jacob leave the cabin?\nAnother cabin-related question: if we\u2019re correct in assuming that Jacob did live in the cabin after Horace and his lady vacated, and that\u2019s why Richard told Ben to look for him there, what made him give up on the place and relocate to the foot of the statue? It\u2019s altogether possible that Richard lied to Ben about where Jacob lived to keep him as far away from him as possible, or that Ben was lying about his knowledge of the cabin. There are too many variables. Let\u2019s just assume that Jacob didn\u2019t have enough room for his giant loom.\n7. How were the ancient Egyptians able to build a magical lighthouse?\nThe Lighthouse is one of those last-minute structures that appeared in Lost\u2019s final season. Why no one had seen the lighthouse up until that point is explained with the fact that the lighthouse can only been seen by someone who is looking for it. So it\u2019s already pretty magical at that point. Upping the magic quotient even higher is the lighthouse\u2019s ability to keep tabs on any of its candidates at any time. How are the ancient Egyptians so adept at building such a magical property? Were they assisted by some power-giving magic juice from the Source, perhaps?\n8. Who is Mother, and how is she able to kills all the Romans, burn down the village, and enter the well?\nMother is one of the most mysterious figures in the show. She appears in only one episode as the caretaker of Jacob and his brother but not before she murders their real mother. All we really know about her is that she came to the island by accident, doesn\u2019t like outsiders, and knows a heck of a lot about the mystical properties of the island. At one point, she murders an entire town full of Romans, which strongly suggests that she was the smoke monster before her ward took the mantle.\n9. How did Eloise Hawking know Brother Campbell?\nThere ended up being a lot of connections between the characters during Lost\u2019s seven-year run, but none have seemed as strange as that of Brother Campbell and Eloise Hawking. Brother Campbell is Desmond\u2019s former religious advisor who fires him after finding him drunk. Eloise Hawking is a former Other who killed her own son and tried to undo it in a time-travelling paradox. In what universe would these two people meet to pose for one poorly-Photoshopped picture? Only in this one. And we\u2019ll never know why.\n10. Why do some characters have the ability to talk to the dead?\nLike Walt\u2019s ability to create objects out of thin air, some other characters have powers that were never fully explained. Both Miles and Hurley have the power to communicate with the dead, albeit in totally different ways. Miles seems to get the short end of the stick. He\u2019s able to only hear the final words of the dead by getting real close to the ground. Hurley can talk to them like they were his best buds asking for a piece of his chicken bucket. No explanation is ever given as to why these two characters have these powers. We\u2019re left to assume that some people have it and some people don\u2019t, and perhaps the island has nothing to do with it.\n11. Why was the island underwater in the flash-sideways timeline?\nWe know that the island sinks when the plug at the source is removed \u2013 because the place falls apart in the finale. But there\u2019s no reason the island should be underwater in the flash-sideways timeline. In the flash-sideways timeline, Oceanic Flight 615 never crashes, therefore no one is around to travel back in time and sink the thing. The only answer we might be happy with is that the collective minds of those creating the flash-sideways timeline surmised that only a sunk island would have prevented the plane from crashing, therefore it had to be underwater.\n12. If David Shepard is real, then what the hell is he doing with all these people he doesn\u2019t really know?\nThe flash-sideways timeline is a creation of all the people who have died on Lost. When they die, they immediately enter a place where they\u2019ve forgotten everything that happened on the island, and live their lives in a different way than it actually went. But everyone who exists in the flash-sideways timeline is real. Jack\u2019s father says that explicitly. So then, who the hell is David Shepard, and what is he doing in this cathartic dimension of the mind? If he\u2019s real, then he must be someone else\u2019s kid, because Jack never had a chance to pop a real one out in his lifetime. Does that mean that he\u2019s on loan from someone else\u2019s heaven? How does one get a gig like that, and does it pay well karmicly?\n13. Is Michael trapped on the island forever?\nIn the final scene in the church, Michael is suspiciously absent. We\u2019re led to assume then, that Michael\u2019s spirit is still trapped on the island for killing Ana Lucia and Libby. This doesn\u2019t seem very fair to us, seeing as how pretty much everyone in that room did some pretty horrific things to stay alive, and that Michael didn\u2019t really plan to kill Ana Lucia and Libby, it must be a mistake. Fortunately for Michael, in \u201cThe New Man in Charge,\u201d a short that premiered with the DVD box set, Ben Linus and Hurley travel to Santa Rosa to recruit Walt. Their mission?

        "raw_content": "Posts Tagged \u2018krakow\u2019\nThree capitals of Poland\nI do not think that this title is overdone. The inside of the Cultural Center has been transformed, continually gaining beauty and functionality.\nThe place of special importance for Center\u2019s members and friends is the banquet hall, transformed to a ballroom through renovations. Utilized in many ways, it becomes a literary salon, a discussion forum, or a theater audience. Most often it is a place for meeting friends, united by consumption (Sunday dinners, dances).\nIt is difficult to identify the diversity of events, to which ingenious organizers invite us. The feeling of self-contentment fills the air when you spent time in a comfortable setting in an ecstatically designed and well taken care of interior. The stage holds a grand piano, a gift from Mr. Mark Bak and Mr. & Mrs. Sobieraj, and on the walls are architectural scenes of buildings in the three capitals of Poland. Two of them are historical, Gniezno and Krakow, and Warsaw, remaining in the status till this day as one of the major cities of Europe. The creators of these works are Mr. Hubert Wisniewski, architect, and Mr. Artur Berg, artist. The history of the mentioned Polish capitals follows.\nGniezno as capital\nDuring the year of Mieszko I\u2019s Christening (966), Gniezno enters a growth stage. The city grows in inhabitants and building. All of this happens because of religious activity. The city gains fame as a fire of bringing nonbelievers to Christianity.\nIn 997, an unfortunate mission of brother Adalbert to part of today\u2019s Elblag ends in his death. The body of the martyr is brought back by the current leader, Boleslaw Chrobry, and laid in the cathedral. Two years later, Gniezno becomes an archdiocese with the martyr\u2019s brother, Radzimin Gautanty appointed as the archbishop. In a short period of time, Adalbert was made a saint, and the numerous pilgrimages made to his grave united the religious and lay people. In 1000, during the Gniezno Gathering, the German Cesar Otto III gave alms to Saint Adalbert. The last years of Chrobry\u2019s life were preoccupied with attaining the crown. He received the honor in Gniezno in 1025.\nThe city was destroyed several times by enemies. The cathedral was torn down and rebuilt several times. Double winged doors made out of bronze were added to the cathedral. The flat sculptures on the doors showed scenes from the life and death of St. Adalbert (a priceless monument).\nFor almost 200 years, Gniezno was the residence of Chrobry\u2019s descendants and an important cultural center, until the great fire of 1320. Without waiting for the rebuilding of the castle, the capital was moved to Krakow.\nKrakow as capital\nThe records of the Wawel hill date back to 1300. Thanks to the natural defensive placement (hill surrounded by Vistula river), it was a safe place for the monarchs and servants. Wladyslaw Lokietek picked Wawel as his home and was crowned in 1320 in Krakow. His reign ended the breakup of Poland into regions, remains after Boleslaw Krzywousty, who divided the country between his sons. King Lokietek united the lands and successful reign over the vast country.\nThe next leader, Kazimierz Odnowiciel, known as the Great, adopted in Krakow the location law from the west, which was very useful in the urbanization of the city. During this time, two new cities developed next to Wawel: Kazimierz and Kleparz. The number of craftsmen and merchants grew. The city was so rich that in 1934 a university was founded. The wealth of the monarchs was seen in a feast given by Nicholas Wierzynka for the monarchs of Europe. Each ruler in attendance received a gold patter at the end of the visit. The market place was designated (one of the largest in Europe) and it was filled with the town hall and its high tower, visible in the city\u2019s skyline. Across from the Marjacki Church, a merchant hall was built called Sukennice.\nThe buildings of Krakow changed as the styles of architecture changed, from roman, through gothic, to the most prevalent renaissance. For the Marjacki Church, Wit Stwosz created the famous altar with sculptures in wood according to the late gothic style.\nDuring the year of America\u2019s discovery 1942, King Jagielo passed away after 45 wonderful years of reign. His son, Sigmund, called the Old, was another great leader who reigned for the next 40 years. It was 1956; no one living at the time realized that the years of the father and son\u2019s reigns were an important time of passing from the Middle Ages to the modern ages.\nA true revolution took place in culture. Many artists visited from abroad and the locals also created. From Italy came the renaissance. Buildings such as the Wawel, Sukiennice, and the university were modified. Krakow became a city of Mediterranean style, popular at the time in Europe.\nThe effect of Krakow\u2019s poor placement at the ends of the huge country \u2013 Poland and Lithuania united, were beginning to be felt. For some time the parliament was called in Priotrokowo or Warsaw, which was slowly turning into a large city. Then in Krakow, a fire destroyed many building and the castle. The next monarch made his home in Warsaw. For Krakow these were difficult times. The downfall was made even stronger by the Swedish war (The Flood). The last coronation in the Wawel castle took place in 1733, when August III was made the king.\nWarsaw as the capital\nThe decision to make Warsaw the capital was made in phases from 1596 to 1609. King Sigmund III Waza, when returning from the Moscow war in 1611, did not go to Krakow, but remained at the castle in Warsaw. The castle was recently transformed from residence of the princes to one for a monarch. Many historians believe the official movement took place during the time of Stefan Batory, when the alms giving ceremony of Hohenzollern for utilization of Prussia was moved from Krakow.\nWarsaw in the 18th century grew past the new and old city limits. The number of occupants grew significantly. Its new residents: the gentry, clergy, and the magistrates build grand residences. The style of baroque Saxon was no longer mandatory, and came the local classicism named after the last king, Stanislaw August Poniatowski. His personal painter, Canaletto brought the beauty of the city to his many painting, and he did this with so much detail that his painting were used in the future to rebuild the city. The time of Warsaw\u2019s greatness came to an end with the fall of Poland in 1795.\nWarsaw stopped being the capital of independent Poland; it followed as the capital of Prussia, Principality of Warsaw, and Principality of Poland, in reality performing an integral role in the Russian empire. It stayed under this occupation for 100 years, constantly fighting for independence. An uprising took place twice \u2013 in November of 1830 and January of 1863. The loss of these fights did not diminish the spirit of the patriotic Warsaw, the hope of independence returned during World War I.\nThe return of the Republic of Poland brought the first spark. Though it was short, but full of strength, enthusiasm, and fantasy. The capital experienced its best years in between the two wars. Many building for public use were built, like theaters and restaurants. People worked and played with triumph and happiness. All this was taking place without foresight of the upcoming tragedy, which is why life needs to be enjoyed, as it does not last.\nDuring World War II in 1939, Warsaw became the central target of the German\u2019s aggression. It was bombed for the first time from air. The brave defensive lasted four weeks. The capital had many loses. The next five years of occupation by the Nazis were a degradation of everything that mattered to the city and its residents.\nThe greatest tragedy took place in 1944. It happened during the rise and fall of the Warsaw Uprising. During the 63-day fights in the streets, homes, churches, on the ground and under ground 600,000 people lost their lives. Those who stayed alive were moved out. Three months was all it took to destroy the Polish capital\u2019s 82% of buildings in the left part of the city. Warsaw simply died. But the death was short, as it did not share the faith of Babylon or Troy. In January of 1945, the city was a desert of ruins. But, the city showed its heroism once more. It rose like a Phoenix from ashes. The greatest rebuilding effort took place from 1946 to 1953, and ended when the Warsaw Castle was completed in 1980.\nToday the city has more than 1,650,000 residents. It grows with new districts. It booms with life on streets and sidewalks. It is a glowing center of culture in all its forms. The pride of Warsaw is the largest in Europe scene of National Opera and Ballet. The artistic performances follow one after another; plays, local and international art showings, contests, museum expositions, and concerts \u2013 all of this brings together audiences from Poland and the world.\nParts of Poles are united with Warsaw in great emotions. Others despise it, though they do not know why. Currently, I invite you to view the wall painting in the banquet hall of the Cultural Center. It displays a fragment of a city, which rose from the fall and has served as the Polish capital for over 400 years.\nTags: Forum, gniezno, krakow, polish capitals, warsaw, warszawa\nPosted in Culture, History | Comments Off",

        "raw_content": "The Trump presidency.\nPosted: Sat Dec 03, 2016 5:55 pm Post subject: The Trump presidency.\nAs the election is over I thought it best to start a new thread dealing with the transition and first term of Donald Trump.\nHere is a story from today about a call made to Trump from the president of Taiwan that has the liberal media in a tizzy.\nhttp://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2016/12/02/world/trump-calls-to-world-leaders.html?_r=0\nSure hope he knows what he is doing. He really needs a good Secretary of State and to start listening to him ASAP.\nI'm sure I'm naive here but to me the Taiwan story sounds absolutely freeking ridiculous.\nIt's often said that Trump is immature, childish etc. Yet today we hear that for some 40 years the US president has refused to talk to his Taiwanese counterpart? Additionally we hear that China would take great offence were such a conversation to take place?! What are we, 7 years old?\nGood on Trump for taking/making the call and shame on the media/China for making it an issue.\nI think it may be a warning shot over the mainlands bow to let them know times and policies are about to change. It has John Bolton's fingerprints all over it.\nI heard that the team be has appointed so far is the wealthiest in the history of the USA. This presiedency is going to be government by billionaires, for biollionaires and paid for (in advance) by billionaires.\nGeorge Monbiot has gone very doomerish again over Trump .\nhttps://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2016/nov/30/donald-trump-george-monbiot-misinformation\nWhat happens if China invades Taiwan?\nI've no idea, but I know of very few situations that are improved by folk not talking to each other for decades. The 'One China' thing is daft IMO.\nYes I have thought so from the day it happened.\nDoomerish? Realistic, more like.\nTake heed of the information therein. George Monbiot, love him or hate him, is possibly the most well-researched journalist at the Guardian; certainly amongst the most honest.\nIf it can be proven that anything factual in the article is wrong, let him know and he will most likely respond - he's always responded on the half-dozen times I've contacted him.\nI heard Galloway make a very good point in Darlington the other night.\nIf, and it is a big if, Trump does what he said he was going to do on foreign policy regarding Russia, this is good for the rest of the World and, if he does what he says he is going to do for Rust belt workers, this will be good for Americans.\nOn the other hand, if he turns out to be as big a warmonger as Clinton demonstrably was, there will never be a better opportunity for the rest of the world to be persuaded to finally stand united against American foreign policy than under a Trump presidency.\nIn other words, little downside and a lot of upside.\nLast edited by Little John on Tue Dec 06, 2016 7:57 pm; edited 2 times in total\nI hear Galloway make a very good point the other night.\nIf, and it is a big if, Trump dies .................\nTrump picks Scott Pruitt to head (or should I say to dismantle) the EPA.\nThis should make an interesting confirmation hearing.\n\ufffdPresident-Elect Trump\ufffds appointment of Scott Pruitt is a breath of fresh air. No longer do we have to suffer under President Obama\ufffds ridiculous EPA \ufffdclimate\ufffd regulations. It is also refreshing that a Republican President is not throwing the EPA over to the green activists and the media by appointing a weak administrator. Christine Todd Whitman he is not! See:\nhttp://www.climatedepot.com/2016/12/07/trump-ignores-gores-advice-instead-picks-skeptic-to-head-epa-dismantle-climate-agenda/\nHe also has chosen a Labor secretary that opposes the minimum wage.\nThere are many daft situations that result in peace whilst people calm down. If you aim to challenge things merely because they are daft then you will see more violent conflicts as a result.\nI'm sorry but I don't know what you mean by a \"daft situation\". Would you care to explain your meaning?\nHe also has chosen the one time head of Exxon Mobile as secretary of state. He also has just ridiculed the CIA as having got it wrong regarding Russian hacking during the election.\ntrump is a loose cannon, and if there are not major problems for the world in the next few years I will be very surprised.\nThere is no evidence of \"Russian Hacking\" of the US election. None whatsoever.",

        "raw_content": "Fifth Phase panchayat polls concludes; BJP gives big fight to BJD\nBhubaneswar: The impressive show by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) continued even in the fifth and final phase of Odisha Panchayat elections held on Tuesday.\nAround 44,50,893 voters exercised their franchise to elect 150 Zilla Parishad Members, 1,173 Sarpanchs and Panchayat Samiti Members and 16,148 Ward Members in 58 blocks across 26 districts out of 30, barring Angul, Boudh, Jharsuguda and Malkangiri.\nAfter completion of the five-phase ppanchayat polls held on February 13, 15, 17, 19 and 21, out of total 848 Zilla Parishad(ZP) zones, Biju Janata Dal (BJD) alone has won 477 zones, while BJP won in 292 zones and Congress with 62 zones and other independent parties with 17 zones.\nThe BJD has emerged winner in Jagatsinghpur, Ganjam, Kendrapara, Angul, Balasore, Bhadrak, Dhenkanal, Cuttack, Puri, Nuapada, Koraput, Jajpur, Keonjhar and Boudh districts while the BJP is ahead in Kalahandi, Mayurbhanj, Malkangiri, Bolangir, Sonepur, Sambalpur, Bargarh and Deogarh districts.\nThe BJP, however, continued to make inroads into traditional BJD strongholds in the fifth phase polls. The BJP won all the four ZP zones in Bhadrak, 12 out of 14 seats in Mayurbhanj and two ZP zones each in Sonepur and Sambalpur districts.\nThe BJD continued its dominance in coastal district. The ruling party won all the seven seats in Ganjam, four out of five in Nayagarh and two seats each in Puri and Khurda districts.\nTrends from the counting received so far suggest that the BJD has won or is leading in 72 out of the 150 Zilla Parishad zones which went to polls while the BJP is close behind with 59 seats. The Congress is ahead in 12 seats while three ZP zones are likely to go in favour of independent and others.\nThe final tally of seats of different political parties may have some minor changes after the official announcements of election results by the State Election Commission (SEC) on February 25 as counting in some seats are yet to be completed due to different reasons.\nfeaturedpanchayat elections\nA World XI of cricketers who had awesome potential",

The trial was held at the Johnson County Courthouse in Warrensburg, Missouri on September 23, 1870. Vest\u2019s client, the broken-hearted owner of Old Drum, had sued the farmer for compensation. Vest brought the jury to tears when he said:\n\u201cThe best friend a man has in this world may turn against him and become his enemy. His son or daughter that he has reared with loving care may prove ungrateful. Those who are nearest and dearest to us, those whom we trust with our happiness and our good name, may become traitors to their faith\u2026The people who are prone to fall on their knees to do us honor when success is with us may be the first to throw the stone of malice when failure settles its cloud upon our heads. The one absolutely unselfish friend that a man can have in this selfish world, the one that never deserts him and the one that never proves ungrateful or treacherous is his dog.\u201d\nThe first six words of that paragraph, combined with the last three \u2014 \u201cThe best friend a man has...is his dog\u201d \u2014 is traditionally credited as the origin of the dog-lovers\u2019 saying we know today: \u201cA dog is a man\u2019s best friend.\u201d (Sometimes given as \u201cA man\u2019s best friend is his dog.\u201d) You can read more about the Old Drum case in this post on my This Day In Quotes site.\nTHE MARX-FLAVORED VARIATION:\nLegendary American comedian\nThis quip has been credited to Groucho since the 1970s. However, as noted in a post on the great Quote Investigator site, it doesn\u2019t appear in his movies or written works and a similar joke was published in the February 1954 issue of Boys\u2019 Life magazine, so he probably didn\u2019t coin it.\nTHE INTENTIONALLY CREEPY VERSION:\n\u201cA boy\u2019s best friend is his mother.\u201d\nActor Anthony Perkins, as the character Norman Bates, in Alfred Hitchcock\u2019s classic film Psycho (1960)\nTHE UNINTENTIONALLY CREEPY VERSION:\n\u201cWhoever said, \u2018A dog is man\u2019s best friend\u2019 must have been a single fellow. As helpful and useful as all of God's creation would be to man, none of these animals were socially, intellectually, or sexually compatible to man.\u201d\nFrom \u201cAt The Beginning: A Study of Marriage\u201d\nAn article posted on the Christian \u201celectronic magazine\u201d called \u201cThe Expository Files.\u201d (Which are not related to The X Files\u2026Or are they?)\nTHE GIRLS CLICH\u00c9 IMMORTALIZED BY MARILYN:\n\u201cA kiss on the hand may be quite continental,\nFrom the song \u201cDiamonds are a Girl\u2019s Best Friend,\u201d written by songwriters Jule Styne and Leo Robin\nThis great song comes from the 1949 Broadway musical Gentleman Prefer Blondes, which was adapted from the 1925 book Gentleman Prefer Blondes, written by Anita Loos.

        "raw_content": "The focus for this Sunday\u2019s session will be song forms. In place of an original composed presentation at the beginning of the session, I will have three groups of volunteers freely improvise through three unique song forms. Each form will be written out on two posters and visible to the performers as well as the audience.\nOne of the forms might look something like this, for example: A B A B C C\u2019\nWhatever each person plays during the first part of the piece gets composed as the \u201cA\u201d section. Listening for a change, the group will together transition into \u201cB\u201d. For the return of \u201cA\u201d each player will revisit the idea they played during the first \u201cA\u201d. I\u2019ve played around with improvising in this way recently and it turned out to be far more difficult than I thought it would be. I like the challenge, and when done well, I like the result being a freely improvised piece of music that revisits previous sections as a group.\nEach group will play the same piece twice. The first time through, the goal will be to improvise through the piece staying together in the form by listening. Again, harder than it seems (for me at least). The second time there will be a pointer; a person guiding the form by pointing to each section of the form on the poster throughout the piece. This takes listening on the pointer\u2019s part as well, but they ultimately make the decision of when to move on to each section. The goal of the second performance of the piece is for the improvisors to use the same material and ideas for each section that they \u201ccomposed\u201d during the first performance. I believe each performance will turn out very different, but I\u2019m hoping they will sound like two versions of the same piece. Another challenge is that the two versions will not be played consecutively. Each group will play version I, then they will each play version II in the same order. Remembering what you, not to mention the other players in your group, composed for each section the first time through the piece, after listening to two other pieces, will be a challenge, but of course, will influence the outcome as well.\nFor the open jam portion of the night I will have several more posters with various song forms for groups to use. I will also have some very specific guidelines and challenges for ensembles to work with for the first several jam pieces.\nSee you Sunday and thank you for reading my post.",

        "raw_content": "Desegregating Worship: Crossing the Racial Divide\nThe Pitfalls of Racially Segregated Worship\nWhat began this series for me was the 50th anniversary celebration of the 1963 March on Washington in August, and my thinking about this landmark moment regarding school desegregation caused me to think about the church. When in 1968, just before his assassination, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., in a sermon at the National Cathedral said, \u201cWe must face the sad fact that at eleven o\u2019clock on Sunday morning when we stand to sing \u2018In Christ there is no East or West,\u2019 we stand in the most segregated hour of America,\u201d I doubt that Dr. King could have imagined the small strides we\u2019ve made in 50 years toward desegregating our houses of worship. While we\u2019ve made huge strides in most arenas of public life, I believe Dr. King\u2019s 1968 observation is just as true today as it was then. While some churches are fully integrated, many (dare I say a majority) of our churches don\u2019t look much different in terms of racial and ethnic diversity than they did 50 years ago. How can this be?",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb RASC History \u00bb National Archives \u00bb 2010s \u00bb Transit of Venus 2012 \u00bb Transit History - the Canadian Experience\nTHE TRANSIT OF 6 JUNE, 1761\nIn a second more detailed paper on the use of transits to find the solar parallax, Halley (1715) actually discussed sites where the 1761 transit could be observed most advantageously. Here was the first time that Canada was mentioned. Halley suggested that Port Nelson (latitude 56\u00ba) on Hudson Bay could be paired with a location in the East Indies to give a long baseline. The Sun would have been almost setting in Port Nelson just as the transit began, and so his suggestion would not have worked out. In the event, no one was sent to North America from Europe in 1761 to attempt a sighting of Venus on the Sun.\nThe only part of Canada where the 1761 transit was visible in its entirety was the inaccessible high arctic, and even from there the Sun would have been at a low altitude (the circumstances for June 8, 2004 were rather similar). The end of the transit was visible just after sunrise from the east coast, but no astronomer nominally associated with Canada observed the event because of the Seven Years' War (1757-1763). By the time of the fall of Louisbourg in 1758, French astronomers like Father Bonn\u00e9camps who had lived in Quebec, and the Marquis de Chabert at Louisbourg, had left the country. On the British side, two military men, the army engineer captain lieutenant Samuel Holland, and the ship's master James Cook, began mapping the Gulf of St. Lawrence. Under Holland's tutelage, Cook produced his first published map, \"A Draught of the Bay and Harbour of Gaspee.\" Eventually, in 1769, both men would observe the next transit of Venus, but the War was a more important preoccupation in 1761. On a world-wide scale, the conflict made travel difficult but not impossible for scientific expeditions. As Maor (2000) has pointed out, \"Some seventy stations spread around the globe [made this] the first large-scale scientific endeavour ever attempted.\" Perhaps one ought to say \"large scale semi-coordinated scientific endeavour.\"\nObservations of the transit suffered from an unforeseen problem \u2014 the so-called black-drop effect, which at its subtlest could appear as an apparent dark thread connecting Venus and the Sun, and at its least subtle as a grosser distortion of the sphere of Venus itself, turning the planet's silhouette into a truncated teardrop. It was not known whether to time the breaking (or formation) of the effect, or the moment when the edges of the Sun and Venus appeared to be tangent; the two times could differ by as much as a minute. The unexpected indeterminacy played havoc with expectations of accuracy. All known observations of the two eighteenth-century transits were studied by Newcomb (1891), who tried to deal with the black-drop effect in a systematic way. A few years prior to the last transit Schaefer (2001) studied the phenomenon and attributed it to irradiation, while Pasachoff (2004) and colleagues found from analysis of space probe data that the black-drop effect chiefly results from solar limb darkening combined with image blurring attributable to atmospheric seeing and telescopic diffraction. Pasachoff's is now the standard explanation. We are unlikely to have heard the last of the black drop.\nThe only observation of the 1761 transit recorded in North America was made by Professor John Winthrop of Harvard College, who travelled to St. John's, Newfoundland, since the phenomenon was not visible from Massachusetts (Shute 1980). Brasch (1916) says that Winthrop established \"America's independence in scientific development,\" and that he was \"regarded as the greatest mathematician of his age on this side of the Atlantic, ... equally keen as an observer of natural phenomena; accurate, methodical, and skilful.\" Winthrop (1764a) found his latitude in Newfoundland from several observations to be 47\u00ba32'N, but was very unsure of his longitude. In the end he used 52\u00ba50'W (3h31m20s). From Winthrop's description of the place, Smith (2003) has identified the site as Kenmount Hill (47\u00ba31'54\"N, 52\u00ba47'32\"W = 3h31m10s).\nWinthrop described his equipment; a pendulum clock, an octant, a refractor, and a reflecting telescope made by Benjamin Martin. And he explained how he and his assistants set up tents, and sank three pillars into the ground, one to support the clock, another for the refractor, and a third, \"above 8 feet high, for a Style, having at top a plate of lead with a little hole for transmitting the Sun's rays.\" These rays fell on a platform which was carefully levelled and on which Winthrop traced a meridian line which he apparently found by bisecting line segments joining images at equal altitudes on either side of the meridian. With an accurate meridian line, it was possible to read the clock at apparent noon each day, and thus find the clock correction. The reflector's stand had its own spirit levels at right angles to each other, and the eyepiece was fitted with horizontal and vertical cross wires.\nOn the morning of the transit, Winthrop and his two student assistants, Samuel Williams and Isaac Rand, watched from the hill where they had a good view of the part of the horizon where the Sun would rise. Quoting Winthrop:\nThus prepared, we waited for the critical hour, which proved favorable to our wishes. The morning of the 6th of June was serene and calm. The Sun rose behind a cloud that lay along the horizon, but soon got above it; and at 4h 18m we had the high satisfaction of seeing that most agreeable Sight, VENUS ON THE SUN, and of shewing it in our telescopes to the Gentlemen of the place, who had assembled very early on the hill to behold so curious a spectacle. ... In memory of so rare an observation, the Gentlemen present agreed to give the hill, where our observatory was situated, the name Venus's Hill.\nVenus was already on the face of the Sun at sunrise. First and second contact had passed but by using the reflector with its micrometer eyepiece, Winthrop was able to calculate the differences in celestial longitude and latitude between the centres of the Sun and Venus and to make a diagram showing the planet's progress across the solar disc. From this he inferred the four times of contact. He also timed and corrected the third and fourth contacts with the clock and these are listed in Table 1.\nWhat happened to his observations is a confusing story, complicated by the long delay in transatlantic communications. Winthrop communicated his results to Benjamin Franklin, who in turn was to send them to his friend James Short of the Royal Society in London. Franklin couldn't remember whether he did so or not(!). Winthrop also sent them to the Astronomer Royal, the Rev'd James Bradley (although they may not have reached him before his death in July, 1762), and to his successor, the Rev'd Nathaniel Bliss, who never sent him a reply. So eventually Winthrop (1764b) sent them directly to Short, who published them in the Philosophical Transactions, and who combined them with observations at the Cape of Good Hope to derive a solar parallax of 8.25\". Short (1762), however, had already studied observations from different places in Europe, and comparing them with observations at the Cape had deduced a parallax of 8.65\", only 0.14\" shy of the true value as we now know it. Apparently Ben Franklin had done as Winthrop asked, for in this 1762 paper Short referred to Winthrop's observation, but said he did not use it since the longitude provided by Winthrop was uncertain. However, Short worked backwards from the parallax to deduce the longitude of Winthrop's station at St. John's as 3h31m12s. This is just 2 seconds of time different from the longitude of Kenmount Hill.\nThe way in which Short handled the times of contact collected from many different stations highlights a striking limitation (from our standpoint) of eighteenth-century means of handling multiple observations of the same phemomenon; statistical knowledge had not advanced to the point where anyone knew how to deal with many observations. All they could do was to combine them, as Short did, two at a time and then average the results. Eventually, when statistical analysis had matured, Simon Newcomb (1891) was able to carry out an exhaustive study of both the eighteenth century transits, and arrive at a solar parallax of 8.79\" with a mean error of \u00b10.051\".",

        "title": "Buying a Second-Hand Guitar | Rhapsody Piano and Guitar",
        "raw_content": "Assuming you will be taking guitar lessons, you will probably want to purchase a guitar for personal use. Buying any musical instrument is an investment, and a guitar is no exception. If this is your first musical instrument, then you can save money by buying a used guitar. Before you buy a used guitar, you should consider a few things.\nConsider Your Playing Style and Do Your Research\nBefore buying a used guitar of any make and model, consider the genre of music you enjoy most. If you are a rock enthusiast, then you might want to invest in a second-hand electric guitar. However, if ballads or folk music is more your style, then perhaps you'd be happiest with an acoustic guitar.\nIf you see an acoustic second-hand model you like, then ask if it is a nylon or steel string model. While steel strings are most common and standard, a beginning musician might find nylon strings to be more comfortable for the hands. You should also note that nylon string guitars are most suitable for the classical music style, while steel strings are favored by many rock musicians.\nAs for research, consider the make, model, and year of the guitar you're looking to purchase. Do some research before you set out to buy, so you will know what specifications to look for. Also, ask where the guitar was made. The origin of the instrument may indicate the quality. Many guitars made in the USA are generally of high quality.\nExamine the Neck and Body of the Guitar\nYour second-hand guitar may be greatly reduced in price if there are dings or cracks on the instrument. A simple scratch or ding on the body may not be anything more than a minor aesthetic annoyance. However, a major crack along the neck or body may spread and worsen, which could eventually make the instrument unplayable or require an expensive fix.\nA used guitar that is in good condition will have no warping on the neck of the guitar. Also, the frets should be smooth and free of damage, with little visible wear and tear. There shouldn't be rust on any part of the instrument. Tuning heads should be tightly affixed, with no signs of looseness.\nYou should pick up the guitar and see how it feels in your hands. Is the neck too large for your hands? Do your hands feel uncomfortable on the guitar? Make certain the guitar is the right fit, and don't forget to test it out by playing a few chords.\nAsk About Included Accessories\nMany used guitar models come with added accessories. Choosing a model that includes these add-ons can save you money. For instance, you'll need a guitar case. If the guitar includes the case, it's a bonus. If the case is a hard shell, this will provide the highest level of protection.\nGuitar picks and strings may also be included with a used guitar. If you're opting for an electric guitar, then you might find a package deal which includes the amplifier. While accessories are not always included, if you can find a deal that offers these little extras, then you might want to take advantage of it and save some money.\nBefore you leave the shop, direct any questions you may have about the guitar to the music dealer or teacher. Here at Rhapsody Piano and Guitar, we will be happy to assist you so that you can choose the best deal and most suitable instrument for you. Come visit to see our selection and feel free to ask us about any specials currently offered on used guitars.",

        "title": "BRICKWORKS SEES STRONG HOME BUILDING AHEAD AS PROFIT SLUMPS \u2013 Romeciti",
        "raw_content": "Brickworks managing director Lindsay Partridge said the east coast home building boom shows no sign of slowing down as he slammed the rostered workers day off for hurting the construction industry\u2019s competitiveness. Mr Partridge brushed off calls that home building in Australia has peaked, saying that while Western Australia is declining and Victoria will peak soon, Queensland and NSW will continue to lift. He said home builders in the major markets of Sydney and Melbourne had work in hand extending up to a year, and Brickworks is scrambling to supply the hot construction sector. \u201cI do break into a cold sweat sometimes wondering how we can meet demand with some of the orders coming through,\u201d he said. In March the nation\u2019s biggest brick maker began restarting mothballed brick factories with stock on hand falling to just eight days at some plants. Brickworks made 675 million bricks in the year to July 31. Mr Partridge said the company has capacity to produce another 50 million to 100 million bricks.\nResidential home building hit a record in 2014-15, with construction started on 214,700 new homes, up from 181,000 the previous year. In August Boral chief executive Mike Kane said \u201cthe Australian housing market is at an all-time peak and therefore there\u2019s only one direction realistically for that market to go\u201d. But Mr Partridge disagrees. He said demand was still robust and pointed out that at The Gables residential development at Box Hill in Sydney\u2019s west, there were more than 4000 registered interested buyers for 120 lots. There were still about 100,000 families waiting to buy somewhere to live, Mr Partridge said. \u201cThere is a massive number of people who would love to buy a house.\nFor every block of land that comes for sale there\u2019s at least 10 people in line to buy it \u2026 the demand is a long way from being satisfied.\u201d \u201cEvery other housing upturn has come to an end because of a credit squeeze and I don\u2019t think anyone anticipates a credit squeeze, so it can go on until we build out the demand.\u201d He also attacked the rostered-day-off system, under which workers accrue a day off for working extra hours beyond their stated work week. \u201cThe No. 1 thing for productivity that needs to be reviewed is the rostered-day-off concept,\u201d Mr Partridge said. \u201cWe had a situation last month where there was a public holiday and four RDOs, so one week in a month was lost to construction. How can anybody make a living in a business that works three weeks in a month?\u201d. His comments come as Brickworks reported a 24 per cent slump in full-year profit to $78.1 million.

We hope you find it useful and interesting.\nThis was the third Budget within a year, but George Osborne still managed to produce a few surprise measures among the inevitable re-announcements. The most significant measures included:\nThe launch of a new Lifetime ISA from April 2017 for adults under the age of 40, with a maximum contribution of \u00a34,000 a year and a 25% government bonus on savings.\nA cut in the main rates of capital gains tax from 2016/17 to 20% for higher and additional rate taxpayers and 10% for other taxpayers, although the existing rates will continue to apply to gains on residential property and carried interests.\nAn increase in the income tax personal allowance for 2017/18 to \u00a311,500 and the higher rate threshold to \u00a345,000.\nTwo new \u00a31,000 tax allowances for property income and trading income, starting in April 2017.\nA restructuring of stamp duty land tax (SDLT) on commercial properties.\nA major revamp of business rates, permanently doubling the Small Business Rate Relief.\nThe abolition of Class 2 National Insurance contributions from 6 April 2018.\nIf you have any questions about the summary\u2019s contents or how any aspects of your tax and financial planning may be affected by the Budget, please get in touch with us to discuss them.\nPlease note that the Financial Conduct Authority does not regulate tax advice\nClick here to view our tax tables for the 2016/17 tax year, updated for announcements made in the Budget. We hope you will find them useful and interesting.\nThe Chancellor\u2019s third Budget in the space of 12 months was expected to be less exciting than its two predecessors. His room for manoeuvre was seen as constrained by disappointing economic numbers and June\u2019s EU referendum. Nevertheless Mr Osborne managed to produce a range of surprise measures \u2013 including some tax cuts and new tax incentives alongside the predictable anti-avoidance attacks. Some of the key points are:\nAn increase in the personal allowance for 2017/18 to \u00a311,500 (\u00a311,000 in 2016/17) and a rise in the higher rate threshold to \u00a345,000 (\u00a343,000 in 2016/17). Both are steps towards the long term goals of a \u00a312,500 allowance and \u00a350,000 threshold by 2020/21.\nA cut in the main rates of capital gains tax from 2016/17 to 20% for higher and additional rate taxpayers and to 10% for basic rate taxpayers, although the existing rates (28% and 18%) will continue to apply to gains on residential property and carried interest.\nAn extension of the entrepreneurs\u2019 relief 10% tax rate to capital gains made by long term investors in unlisted companies.\nA cut in the corporation tax rate to 17% in 2020 from the previous target of 18% and a two year deferral of the planned acceleration in the timing of tax payments by large companies.\nA restructuring of stamp duty land tax (SDLT) on commercial properties, with higher tax bills on more valuable properties.\nAn increase in insurance premium tax from 9.5% to 10% from 1 October 2016 which will be used to finance additional flood defence expenditure.\nThe launch of a new Lifetime ISA from April 2017 for adults under the age of 40, with a maximum contribution of \u00a34,000 a year and a 25% bonus on savings. The standard ISA investment limit will rise to \u00a320,000 at the same time.\nA new help to save scheme for low income households, offering a 50% bonus after two years of savings of up to \u00a350 a month.\nThe abolition of Class 2 National Insurance contributions (NICs) from 6 April 2018. From the same date, termination payments over \u00a330,000, which are subject to income tax, will also become subject to employer NICs.\nThere were the usual raft of anti-avoidance and evasion measures, with restrictions on tax relief for business interest and the use of tax losses.\nIf you have any questions about how aspects of your tax and financial planning might be affected by the Budget, please get in touch with us to discuss them.\nTime to start planning for the new Tax Year?\nAs we near the end of the tax year, now is the time to consider not only year end planning, but also planning for the new tax year.\nIt is one of the features of the political cycle that the more difficult and less palatable legislation tends to come at the start of a parliamentary term rather than as an election nears. Tax changes are very much a case in point: the rises come soon after an election, the cuts shortly before the election. When 2016/17 starts there will be a number of important tax changes scheduled to take effect which need to be built into your financial planning:\nLifetime allowance The lifetime allowance effectively sets the maximum tax-efficient value of all your pension benefits. It started life in 2006 at \u00a31.5m, reached a maximum of \u00a31.8m and will be cut from \u00a31.25m to \u00a31m on 6 April 2016. It will be possible to claim some transitional protection, although final details are still awaited.\nAnnual allowance The annual allowance effectively sets the maximum tax-efficient annual input to all your pension benefits, regardless of source. It started life in 2006 at \u00a3215,000, reached a maximum of \u00a3255,000 and is now \u00a340,000. From 6 April 2016 a new tapered annual allowance will be introduced, which may affect you if your total income (not just earnings) exceeds \u00a3110,000. The taper will mean that your annual allowance could be as low as \u00a310,000.\nDividend taxation The new tax rules for dividends begin on 6 April. If your dividend income is less than \u00a35,000 you will have no tax to pay, but if you have substantial dividend income \u2013 perhaps from a shareholding in a private company \u2013 then your dividend tax bill could increase.\nSavings Allowance This new allowance will mean that if you are a basic rate taxpayer you have no tax to pay on the first \u00a31,000 of interest, while if you are a higher rate taxpayer, then \u00a3500 will suffer no tax. In line with these new allowances, interest from banks and building societies will be paid without deduction of tax (but it will still be taxable).\nIf any of the changes gives you pause for thought, do contact us. Each one offers planning opportunities, not all of which are obvious.\nThe value of your investment can go down as well as up and you may not get back the full amount you invested. The value of tax reliefs depends on your individual circumstances. Tax laws can change. The Financial Conduct Authority does not regulate tax advice.",

(SafetyAlerts) - In cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), Interstate Engineering, of Dallas, Texas, is voluntarily recalling about 40,000 heat detectors. These heat detectors can fail to alarm or alarm for a shorter period of time than intended when fire is present.\nInterstate Engineering and CPSC are aware of one incident when a heat detector failed to operate properly during a retail demonstration. Subsequent testing by Interstate Engineering produced approximately 38 additional failures. CPSC is not aware of any failures during use by consumers, and no injuries have been reported.\nThe heat detectors are round, have an off-white aluminum cover, are roughly 7 inches in diameter and 3 inches high, and have a round, brass-colored metal disk at the center of the cover. They are mechanical, and do not use batteries or electricity. The heat detectors were sold under the following private label brand names and models, which were printed on labels on the back of the detectors:\nMasterGuard model MG-50/70;\nResponsive model TRI70;\nRescue II model R-50FT\nThe recalled heat detectors have the following serial numbers on the label that is beneath the removable mounting bracket on the back of each unit: 980400001 through 981108112.\nThese heat detectors were sold nationwide primarily through in-home demonstrations and sales parties from May 1998 through December 1998 for about $225 or higher. Prices were determined by Interstate Engineering's private label resellers.\nConsumers should stop using these heat detectors immediately and call Interstate for a free replacement at (888) 516-0019 between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m., Monday through Friday EDT.\nHeat detectors are intended to supplement smoke detectors to warn of fire, but CPSC reminds consumers they should not rely on heat detectors as substitutes for smoke detectors.",

        "title": "Savvy Sheep: Three Things I Wish I Could Tell a New Christian",
        "raw_content": "This week, I have been reading No Compromise: The Life Story of Keith Green, which was written by his widow, Melody Green. The book covers the singer/songwriter's search for God, how he and Melody came to know Jesus (even though both of them were of Jewish heritage), and the development of his message and ministry in the Jesus Movement in California in the 70s and early 80s. The flow and content of the book explains a lot of the reasoning behind the decisions he made, to help those readers who might be struggling with the same issues. I haven't finished reading the book, but I recommend that you check it out (and I'm not getting paid for that endorsement).\nThis book seems especially written for those who are contemplating becoming a Christian, new Christians, and those who know them. I found myself thinking about what basic advice I would give to these readers. I cut it down to three main pieces of advice:\nGod's truth will outlast and outshine any lies we encounter.--The world is filled with lots of things that pass for truth (many of them very cleverly disguised), but they turn out to be hollow when we scrutinize them closely. Until then, those lies can fill us with doubts. If something has come along and made you doubt God, I encourage you to seek out the answers to your questions in the Bible, and don't give up until the question is settled (Matthew 7: 7-8; Psalm 34: 8). After all, the Bible was written to make known who God is and to record what He stands for, as it says repeatedly (for example, Isaiah 46: 9-10). I know from experience that the answers are there for anyone who wants to find them.\nGod's righteousness is greater than any stupidity you might encounter from His followers.--One of the biggest deterrents for new Christians and those considering becoming a Christian is the stupidity, cruelty, and hypocrisy of those claiming to be Jesus' followers. This is because (1) not everyone claiming to be a Christian really is, and (2) Even those who really are Christians can do things that are wrong from time to time. Good news! God sent His son, Jesus, to redeem and purify messed up people. Since He condemned their sin as something so bad that it was worthy of death and then paid that penalty on the cross, nothing He has said or done can be construed as an endorsement of sin, even among His followers. In fact, the only reason sin is tolerated at all is to allow time for a few more to find out about Him (Romans 9: 22-24). So if you see a so-called Christian behaving badly, it reflects back on their character, not on the God they claim to follow. Don't let them discourage you from finding out what God's character is really like (Romans 5: 6-8).\nGod's strength is greater than the worst troubles in life.--The last big obstacle to growing (or sometimes even beginning) faith in Christ is the trouble and struggles we all face. Jesus even talked about this in His explanation of the Parable of the Sower, in which He said, \"The seed falling on rocky ground refers to someone who hears the word and at once receives it with joy. But since they have no root, they last only a short time. When trouble or persecution comes because of the word, they quickly fall away,\" (Matthew 13: 20, 21 NIV). The \"root\" here symbolizes the strength of the hearer's convictions and faith and the value they put on their relationship with Jesus Christ. It is important to remember as a new Christian (and also important to know, as someone interested in Christianity) that this faith that we hold is in a real Savior who has redeemed His followers from death and will carry them through all the troubles of today. There is no reason to be afraid or lose hope. The Bible says that Christians can depend on God's supernatural strength to both help and defend them (Psalm 9: 9; Joshua 1: 9).\nParting questions: As a new Christian, curious seeker, or friend of a new Christian, what do you think are the biggest obstacles to faith? What questions do you need answered in order to have that deeper, stronger relationship with God?\nLabels: American Culture, christian debate, Christianity, God's righteousness, growth, teaching, truth",

Everybody except me, who lost two.\nSaturday night I was very tired, so had a relatively early night of 23:00 (GMT). Knowing the clocks were going forward that night, and assuming my iPhone wouldn\u2019t make the change automatically, I moved the time forward an hour to 00:00 (BST).\nEverything was fine until this morning.\nI normally get up for work at 07:45. My alarm rang on time as normal. I was exceptionally tired, but put this down to losing an hour and the general Monday morning feeling. I got washed, dressed, made sandwiches for work and had breakfast. I then turned on the radio, only for Chris Moyles to announce it was 06:55!\nThen it clicked. On Saturday, when I moved my clock forward an hour from 23:00 to 00:00, I forgot to also change the day. Therefore I was moving backwards 23 hours to Saturday at 00:00, not Sunday at 00:00.\nI hope you\u2019re still with me\u2026\nBesides the phone displaying the wrong day, this would not normally be a problem. However, in the night (Monday morning), my phone thought it was Sunday and moved the time forward an additional hour (like it should for daylight saving).\nSo there I was, out of bed, all ready for work at a time that I would never normally surface from my slumber. Did I go into work an hour early? Did I make use of the time to do some things around the flat? No \u2013 I went back to bed for an hour.\nThe funny thing is, I often hear the person in the flat above mine getting up at 5.30am. This morning I heard him getting up at 6.30am (well\u2026 what I thought was 6.30am). While lying there, I thought \u201cWhat an idiot \u2013 he\u2019s forgot to put his clock forward\u201d\nThis just goes to show, with people like me making stupid mistakes, this whole daylight saving rubbish should be abolished. The system was only developed so farmers can work on the land in the light and kids don\u2019t get run over on the way to school (probably). Nowadays, we\u2019re not all farmers and all kids get driven to school in a Chelsea Tractor, so it doesn\u2019t matter how dark it is!\nBromley 1-1 Bath City\nYesterday I went with Claire to Kent to watch Bath City play Bromley.\nBromley play at Hayes Lane, which is a beautiful, traditional football ground and my favourite in the Blue Square South.\nIt really was a game of two halves. City battered Bromley for the first 45 minutes. I know it\u2019s an old clich\u00e9, but had it been a boxing match, they would have stopped the game.\nUnfortunately, City failed to capitalise on the dominance, and despite hitting the cross bar and having a ball cleared off the line, went into the dressing room at half time with the scores tied at 0-0.\nI had a bad feeling City would live to regret the missed chances. My fears were confirmed, when early into the second half, Bromley scored. Luckily City equalised minutes afterwards.\nThe game ended 1-1, despite heavy pressure from Bromley in the closing stages. While both sides were happy they didn\u2019t lose, I think they both felt that they missed a chance to win \u2013 Bath especially.\nHere\u2019s some photos from the picturesque ground, including a lovely cat that happened to be at there.\nPosted by sean on March 29, 2009 at 4:06 pm in Other Sport with No Comments\nThere\u2019s only one Jenson Button!\nWho the **** is Lewis Hamilton? \ud83d\ude42\nPosted by sean on March 27, 2009 at 10:16 pm in Leeds United, Movies with No Comments\nAs a Leeds fan, I thought it was my duty to go and watch the Brian Clough/Leeds United film, The Damned United. So, after work, I went straight to town for a late afternoon screening of the film.\nAfter sitting through half an hour of adverts \u2013 most of them horrible, involving bar tenders with split personalities telling you not to drink and drive; people carrying the names of STDs on their underwear; and a man who keeps seeing a run over boy wherever he goes (will someone give that kid a proper burial?), the film began.\nThe film focuses on Brian Clough\u2019s infamous 44 day stint at Leeds United. Clough had just won the league with Derby and, despite a hatred for the club, joined Leeds, who, at the time, were the biggest club in England \u2013 as large as Manchester United are today (how the mighty have fallen).\nThe film is set in 1974 \u2013 before my time, but as a football and Leeds fan, I have been made more than aware of the infamous events of those 44 days. I therefore was very excited to see the film.\nTo cut a long (or 44 day) story short, Clough didn\u2019t do very well at Leeds \u2013 a lot of this down to his own, personal mistakes \u2013 strange for a man who would go on to have such a successful career in European football.\nSome observations from the film\n\u2013 Brian Clough was nothing without his assistant, Peter Taylor (who he didn\u2019t bring to Leeds)\n\u2013 Instead of Lucozade at half time, players would have an orange and a couple of cigarettes\n\u2013 Clough hated Leeds with a passion. This probably led to his downfall at Elland Road\n\u2013 Don Revie, who left Leeds to manage England (and failed) should have stayed to build on his success, allowing Clough to get the international job.\n\u2013 I loved the part in 7-a-side where Johnny Giles went 2-footed, studs up, on Clough \u2013 hahaha!\n\u2013 How many other League One clubs have their own international feature film? Leeds United \u2013 just a small club\u2026\nI am pleased to say Brian Clough, Don Revie, Leeds United and Derby County, all come out of the film in a very positive light, despite some of Clough\u2019s relatives reacting angrily to the plotline.\nI really liked the film. You don\u2019t have to be a Leeds or Derby fan to enjoy it \u2013 you don\u2019t really have to follow football, although if you hate the sport, it probably is best to avoid.",

        "raw_content": "How the Gun Control Debate Ignores Black Lives\nPhoto Credit: Laurent Lav\u00ec Lazzeresky.\nOn a drizzly afternoon in January 2013, almost a month after the school shooting in Newtown, Connecticut, that left 20 first-graders dead, more than a dozen religious leaders assembled in Washington, D.C.\nThey had been invited by the Obama administration to talk about what the country should do to address gun violence. Vice President Joe Biden had been meeting with victims and advocates all day, and he arrived so late that some in the room wondered whether he would come at all. When he finally walked in, the clergy started sharing their advice, full of pain, some of it personal. \u201cThe incidents of Newtown are very tragic,\u201d Michael McBride, a 37-year-old pastor from Berkeley, California, recalled telling Biden. \u201cBut any meaningful conversation about addressing gun violence has to include urban gun violence.\u201d\nMcBride supported universal background checks. He supported an assault weapons ban. But he also wanted something else: a national push to save the lives of black men. In 2012, 90 people were killed in shootings like the ones in Newtown and Aurora, Colorado. That same year, nearly 6,000 black men were murdered with guns.\nMany people viewed inner-city shootings as an intractable problem. But for two years, McBride had been spreading awareness about Ceasefire, a nearly two-decades-old strategy that had upended how police departments dealt with gang violence. Under Ceasefire, police teamed up with community leaders to identify the young men most at risk of shooting someone or being shot, talked to them directly about the risks they faced, offered them support, and promised a tough crackdown on the groups that continued shooting. In Boston, the city that developed Ceasefire, the average monthly number of youth homicides dropped by 63 percent in the two years after it was launched. The U.S. Department of Justice\u2019s \u201cwhat works\u201d website for crime policy had a green check mark next to Ceasefire, labeling it \u201ceffective\u201d \u2014 the highest rating and one few programs received.\nMcBride wanted President Obama to make Ceasefire and similar programs part of his post-Newtown push to reduce gun violence. He had brought a short memo to give to White House staffers, outlining a plan to devote $500 million over five years to scaling such programs nationwide. His pitch to Biden that day was even simpler: Don\u2019t ignore that black children are dying too.\nIn response, the vice president agreed urban violence was very important, McBride said. But it was clear that \u201cthere was not a lot of appetite for that conversation by folks in the meeting,\u201d McBride recalled.\nLater, other ministers who worked with McBride would get an even blunter assessment from a White House staffer: There was no political will in the country to address inner-city violence.\nWhen McBride spoke to administration staffers again about dramatically increasing money for programs like Ceasefire, he said, \u201cPeople were kind of looking at me like, \u2018Are you crazy?\u2019 No, I\u2019m not crazy. This is your own recommendation. You should do it!\u201d\nMass shootings, unsurprisingly, drive the national debate on gun violence. But as horrific as these massacres are, by most counts they represent less than 1 percent of all gun homicides. America\u2019s high rate of gun murders isn\u2019t caused by events like Sandy Hook or the shootings this fall at a community college in Oregon. It\u2019s fueled by a relentless drumbeat of deaths of black men.\nGun control advocates and politicians frequently cite the statistic that more than 30 Americans are murdered with guns every day. What\u2019s rarely mentioned is that roughly 15 of the 30 are black men.\nAvoiding that fact has consequences. Twenty years of government-funded research has shown there are several promising strategies to prevent murders of black men, including Ceasefire. They don\u2019t require passing new gun laws, or an epic fight with the National Rifle Association. What they need \u2014 and often struggle to get \u2014 is political support and a bit of money.\nA week after McBride and the other faith leaders met with Biden, Obama announced his national gun violence agenda. He called for universal background checks, which experts say could prevent some shootings. Other key elements of his plan \u2014 a ban on assault weapons and funding to put police officers in schools \u2014 were unlikely to save a significant number of lives.\nAt the press conference where Obama announced the plan, a diverse group of four children sat on the podium with him: two girls and two boys who had written letters begging the president to do something about gun violence. \u201cHinna, a third-grader \u2014 you can go ahead and wave, Hinna\u2014that\u2019s you \u2014 Hinna wrote, I feel terrible for the parents who lost their children. I love my country, and I want everybody to be happy and safe,\u201d the president said.\nObama went over the litany of school shootings \u2014 Columbine, Virginia Tech, Newtown \u2014 and made a brief nod to the deaths of \u201ckids on street corners in Chicago.\u201d But his plan included no money for the urban violence strategies his Justice Department described as effective. His platform didn\u2019t refer to them at all.\nMcBride, who was in the audience, said he was not surprised. He supported the president\u2019s other proposals, and, when it came to urban violence, he had \u201crealistic expectations.\u201d In his fight to save the lives of black men, McBride has kept running up against the same assumption: that \u201curban violence is a problem with black folk. It\u2019s not a problem for this country to solve.\u201d\nPhoto Credit: Gaellery via Compfight.\nGun violence in America is largely a story of race and geography. Almost two-thirds of America\u2019s more than 30,000 annual gun deaths are suicides, most of them committed by white men. In 2009, the gun homicide rate for white Americans was 2 per 100,000 \u2014 about seven times as high as the rate for residents of Denmark, but a fraction of the rate for black Americans. In 2009, black Americans faced a gun homicide rate of nearly 15 per 100,000. That\u2019s higher than the gun homicide rate in Mexico.\nTo liberals, gun violence among African-Americans is rooted in economic disadvantage and inequality, as well as America\u2019s gun culture and lax gun laws. Conservatives, meanwhile, often focus on black \u201cculture.\u201d \u201cThe problem is not our gun laws,\u201d a member of the Wall Street Journal editorial board wrote last year about Chicago\u2019s murder rate. \u201cNor is it our drug laws, or racist cops, prosecutors and judges. The problem is black criminality, which is a function of black pathology, which ultimately stems from the breakdown of the black family.\u201d\nLost in the debate is that even in high-crime cities, the risk of gun violence is mostly concentrated among a small number of men. In Oakland, for instance, crime experts working with the police department a few years ago found that about 1,000 active members of a few dozen street groups drove most homicides. That\u2019s .3 percent of Oakland\u2019s population. And even within this subgroup, risk fluctuated according to feuds and other beefs. In practical terms, the experts found that over a given stretch of several months only about 50 to 100 men are at the highest risk of shooting someone or getting shot.\nMost of these men have criminal records. But it\u2019s not drug deals or turf wars that drives most of the shootings.\nInstead, the violence often starts with what seems to outsiders like trivial stuff \u2014 \u201ca fight over a girlfriend, a couple of words, a dispute over a dice game,\u201d said Vaughn Crandall, a senior strategist at the California Partnership for Safe Communities, which did the homicide analysis for Oakland.\nSomebody gets shot. These are men who do not trust the police to keep them safe, so \u201cthey take matters into their own hands,\u201d he said. It\u2019s long-running feuds, Crandall said, that drive most murders in Oakland.\nMen involved in these conflicts may want a safer life, but it\u2019s hard for them to put their guns down. \u201cThe challenge is that there is no graceful way to bow out of the game,\u201d said Reygan Harmon, the director of Oakland Police Department\u2019s violence reduction program.\nThese insights led a group of Boston police, black ministers and academics to try a new approach in 1996. Since group dynamics were driving the violence, they decided to hold the groups accountable. The plan was simple: Identify the small groups of young men most likely to shoot or be shot. Call them in to meet face-to-face with police brass, former gang members, clergy and social workers. Explain to the invitees that they were at high risk of dying. Promise an immediate crackdown on every member of the next group that put a body on the ground \u2014 and immediate assistance for everyone who wanted help turning their lives around. Then follow up on those promises.\nThe results of Operation Ceasefire were dramatic. Soon after Boston held its first meeting \u2014 known as a call-in \u2014 on May 15, 1996, homicides of young men plummeted along with reports of shots fired.\nThe Rev. Jeff Brown, one of the ministers who worked on the project, remembers people were outside more, barbecuing in the park. At Halloween, kids were able to trick-or-treat on the streets again.\nThe team behind the effort quickly started getting calls from other cities \u2014 even other countries \u2014 about how to replicate what became known as the Boston Miracle. With the support of the Justice Department under Presidents Bill Clinton and George W. Bush, many cities tried the strategy and some got dramatic results. Stockton saw a 42 percent reduction in monthly gun homicides over several years. Indianapolis experienced a 34 percent drop in monthly homicides. Lowell, Massachusetts, saw gun assaults fall by 44 percent.\nA 2012 review of the existing research evidence found that seven of eight cities that had rigorously implemented Ceasefire and similar strategies had seen reductions in violence.\nOther cities have tried Ceasefire, or half-tried it, and then abandoned it. The strategy requires resources, political buy-in, and ongoing trust between unlikely partners. The effort in Boston had \u201cblack and Latin and Cape Verdean clergy working with white Irish Catholic cops in a city that had a history of race relations leading up to that point that was abysmal,\u201d Brown said. \u201cIt was really a shift in behavior, in the way we did business.\u201d\nThese partnerships can be fragile. Boston\u2019s own Ceasefire effort fell apart in 2000, researchers said. There was infighting and the police official who led it got another assignment. In subsequent years, homicides of young men crept up again.\nAn endless number of variables can affect crime, making it hard to know how much a particular effort works. Daniel Webster, director of the Johns Hopkins Center for Gun Policy and Research, noted that the current research only evaluates the short-term effects of the program, so it\u2019s still unclear how well it works over the long term.\nStill, Webster said, if you\u2019re interested in reducing shootings among young black men, the Boston Ceasefire model is one of the strategies that has shown \u201cthe most consistent positive response.\u201d\nJim Bueerman \u2014 head of the Police Foundation, which focuses on crime research \u2014 said that while the evidence is only \u201chighly suggestive,\u201d Ceasefire is still worth doing.\n\u201cIt\u2019s going to be a long time before you get the perfect evidence,\u201d said Bueerman, a former police chief of Redlands, California. \u201cWhen you come across a strategy like Ceasefire that appears to be working, you owe it to people to try it in your local community.\u201d\nPart of what seems to make Ceasefire effective is that it treats the men it targets as both dangerous and also in need of help. Such initiatives, however, fit into no political camp and thus have few powerful champions.\n\u201cIt has no natural constituency,\u201d said Thomas Abt, a Harvard Kennedy School researcher who has worked on crime policy at the Justice Department. \u201cTo vastly oversimplify, progressives want more prevention and conservatives want more enforcement. Focused deterrence\u201d \u2014 what academics call Ceasefire and similar approaches \u2014 \u201cchallenges the orthodoxy on both sides. It makes everybody uncomfortable.\u201d\nCeasefire has often been greeted with skepticism in the neighborhoods it\u2019s supposed to help, where residents have reason to distrust the police. To buy into Ceasefire, McBride had to weigh the data against his own experience. In 1999, as a college student studying theology, McBride was stopped as he drove home by two white San Jose police officers. He said they forced him to get out of his car, groped him, and made him lie on the ground while threatening him.\nIt didn\u2019t matter that he was a youth pastor, that he was involved in local politics, that he had just helped to get San Jose\u2019s new mayor elected. That night, he was just another black man lying on the ground. (The police chief at the time told ProPublica that while the officers and McBride gave conflicting accounts, he decided to launch a study of racial profiling during traffic stops, one of the nation\u2019s first.)\nWhen McBride moved to Berkeley in 2005, fresh out of divinity school at Duke University, he thought he would focus his social justice work on education \u2014 mentoring young people struggling to graduate from high school.\nThen a few of the young people he was mentoring were murdered. One was Larry Spencer, a charismatic 19 year old \u2014 funny, popular, \u201csomeone that everyone just really loved,\u201d McBride said. Spencer was shot to death outside a liquor store in nearby Oakland. It was the city\u2019s 39th gun homicide in a year that left 110 dead.\nHundreds of mourners attended Spencer\u2019s funeral, McBride said. McBride asked the congregation how many had attended a funeral before. Everyone raised their hands. How many had been to two funerals? Three? Four? He continued to count upward. \u201cI got as high as 10,\u201d he recalled. \u201cHalf of the young people started to cry and still had their hands in the air.\u201d\nOakland had tried Ceasefire on and off for years but struggled to make it work. \u201cThere wasn\u2019t a true commitment to the strategy,\u201d said Lt. LeRonne Armstrong, who managed the city\u2019s program in the mid-2000s while working in the criminal investigations unit. \u201cWe did not have the political support.\u201d\nAfter Sandy Hook, advocates placed thousands of grave markers on the National Mall to remember all those affected by gun violence. (Mark Wilson/Getty)\nMcBride and others pushed city leaders and pastors to embrace the strategy.\nMany of them were skeptical, but McBride thought working with the police was crucial. \u201cWe realized that in order for us to do any of this work, we were going to have to be in some relation with the police department. We pay taxes. We\u2019re paying for the police department, whether we like it or not,\u201d he said.\nIn 2012, Oakland recommitted itself to Ceasefire. It hired a full-time manager for the program, using both city dollars and part of a 2013 Justice Department grant. The city also dedicated funds to work with a team of experts who had helped other cities implement Ceasefire. The experts helped Oakland do a detailed data analysis homing in on the men who needed to be called in. There were only 20 guys at the first relaunched call-in \u2014 \u201cbut they were 20 of the right guys,\u201d said Armstrong.\nMurders dropped from 126 in 2012 to 90 in 2013, according to police department data. Last year, Oakland had 80 murders.\nMcBride traveled across the country as part of a national campaign to reduce urban violence using Ceasefire. Every city had its own challenges. Money was one of them. Ceasefire was not particularly expensive, but hiring outreach workers and providing social services to the men involved required a little support, as did hiring outside consultants. Outside funding also made it easier for city leaders to move ahead with a different approach to gun violence.\nThe Obama administration has several grant programs aimed at helping urban neighborhoods reduce violence, but the demand for grants far outstrips funding. For one 2012 grant, the Justice Department received over 140 applications and had money for just 15.\n\u201cIt is a brutal process to apply for these grants. Most of them don\u2019t get funded, and I think that\u2019s a bit of a tragedy,\u201d said Bueerman, the head of the Police Foundation. \u201cYou have agencies that are highly willing to do the work. You don\u2019t have to sell them on the efficacy of the strategy. You just have to empower it through a relatively small amount of money to help them get the program started.\u201d\nThe Obama administration has consistently asked for more money than Congress has authorized. In 2012, the White House requested $74 million for five grants for Ceasefire and similar programs. It got $30 million.\nAdvocates of Ceasefire have tried to press Congress for more money. Some legislators \u201creally like these programs,\u201d one former Hill staffer said, but not enough to take on an uphill battle for additional funding. \u201cI think the one sort of antidote to that was if you had massive political pressure from some organization or group that felt really strongly about something and could get people riled up about it,\u201d the staffer said. \u201cHonestly speaking, if we are talking about urban violence, there is less of that.\u201d\nThe national groups that spend the most money and do the most advocacy related to gun violence have concentrated almost exclusively on passing stricter gun control laws. Dan Gross, the president of the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence, said he\u2019s \u201cvery supportive,\u201d of strategies like Ceasefire, but \u201cit\u2019s not our lane.\u201d\nA spokeswoman for Michael Bloomberg\u2019s Everytown for Gun Safety said much the same. \u201cWe\u2019re focused on what we know, which is how to improve the laws,\u201d said Erika Soto Lamb.\nDeclines in violent crime over the last two decades have made it harder to galvanize support for gun violence prevention. The number of Americans murdered by guns peaked in 1993, then dropped sharply until 2000 for reasons that are still not fully understood. Since then, the number of Americans killed in gun homicides has remained remarkably consistent, about 11,000 to 12,000 a year.\nAnother constant: About half of those killed this way are black men, though they make up just 6 percent of the U.S. population. In 2001, when George W. Bush took office, 5,279 black men were murdered with firearms, according to estimates from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. In 2012, it was 5,947.\nThese deaths are concentrated in poor, segregated neighborhoods that have little political clout.\n\u201cI think that people in those communities are perceived as not sufficiently important because they don\u2019t vote, they don\u2019t have economic power,\u201d said Timothy Heaphy, a former U.S. attorney who has spent much of his career focused on urban violence. \u201cI think there\u2019s some racism involved. I don\u2019t think we care about African-American lives as much as we care about white lives.\u201d\nThe few congressional efforts to advance gun legislation in recent years have been prompted by mass shootings, violence that is seemingly random and thus where everyone can feel at risk.\n\u201cCongress has only moved in response to galvanizing tragedy, and galvanizing tragedy tends to not involve urban, run-of-the-mill murder,\u201d said Matt Bennett, a gun policy expert at Third Way, a centrist think-tank. \u201cThe narrative about the need for gun violence prevention generally is driven by these black swan events, and those often involve white people,\u201d he added. \u201cIt is horrific and tragic, but that\u2019s the fact.\u201d\nWhen Adam Lanza shot his way into the Sandy Hook Elementary School with a military-style rifle and handguns in December 2012, it wasn\u2019t clear if any laws would have stopped him. Lanza had taken the guns from his mother, who had purchased them legally.\nPastor Michael McBride leads a vigil outside of the White House on Dec. 14, 2012, to call on the president to take action after the mass shooting that day at Sandy Hook Elementary School. (Alex Wong/Getty)\nThe package of proposed legislation and policy initiatives recommended by the Obama administration in the aftermath of Sandy Hook centered on closing loopholes in background checks and renewing the federal ban on assault weapons that expired in 2004. The president also called for increased spending on mental health, crackdowns on the trafficking networks that sell illegal guns, and more than $150 million for a new program to put more cops and psychologists in schools.\nObama and gun control advocates made universal background checks the focus of their push. It wasn\u2019t a policy that was relevant to Newtown, but they saw it as the most likely way to reduce everyday gun violence and save lives. Most researchers agree that a better background check system could help curtail both urban gun violence and mass shootings, though there\u2019s no hard data to indicate how much.\nThere was less evidence proving that the other elements of the president\u2019s plan would reduce gun violence. Though the public quickly focused on one weapon Lanza used, a Bushmaster XM15-E2S, experts knew the assault weapons ban hadn\u2019t saved many lives. The effects of a renewed ban \u201care likely be small at best, and perhaps too small for reliable measurement,\u201d a report funded by the Justice Department concluded.\nA former senior White House official agreed. While a ban on high capacity magazines could help some, the official told ProPublica, the assault weapons ban \u201cdoes nothing.\u201d Though Obama endorsed it as part of the post-Newtown package, \u201cwe did the bare minimum,\u201d the official said. \u201cWe would have pushed a lot harder if we had believed in it.\u201d\nSome gun control advocates who worked with the administration on gun legislation said they saw the endorsement of the assault weapons ban as a bargaining chip. \u201cIt\u2019s all a dance, it\u2019s a kabuki thing, and right from the beginning the White House understood that they weren\u2019t going to get a ban done,\u201d said Bennett, the gun policy expert. \u201cThey had to talk about it. It would have been insane not to. Every news report after Sandy Hook had this horrible looking AR-15, and noted that it had been a banned weapon that now wasn\u2019t.\u201d\nAdding police at schools has popular appeal, but classroom homicides are exceedingly rare.\n\u201cAny given school can expect to experience a student homicide about once every 6,000 years,\u201d said Dewey Cornell, a University of Virginia professor who studies school safety.\n\u201cChildren are in far more danger outside of schools than in schools. If we had to take officers out of the community to put them in schools, then actually children will be less safe rather than more safe.\u201d\nTwo former administration staffers who worked on the gun violence platform said the $150 million proposal for cops and counselors in schools \u2014 which \u201cmay have been a bit outsized,\u201d one said \u2014 was driven by Vice President Biden\u2019s history of championing federal grants for hiring cops.\nIt also seemed like \u201csomething that people might be willing to, you know, give us money for,\u201d a former senior White House official said.\nThe staffers said they could not remember why funding to support strategies like Ceasefire was not included in the plan. \u201cLook, if it was some deliberate conversation not to do it, I would remember,\u201d the former senior official said.\nThough Justice Department grants for community violence prevention weren\u2019t part of the post-Sandy Hook platform, a staffer said \u201cwe were watching the fiscal year 2014 budget process and making sure we were continuing to push for those resources at DOJ.\u201d Bruce Reed, Biden\u2019s chief of staff at the time, said budget concerns likely kept funding for innovative local efforts out of the package.\n\u201cWe didn\u2019t want to turn this into an appropriations bill, because that would be \u2026 \u201d he said, shrugging. \u201cThat would cost us whatever Republicans we had hoped for.\u201d\n\u201cThe appropriations climate was, if possible, more divisive than the gun debate,\u201d Reed added later. \u201cWe were always between shutdowns.\u201d\nWebster, the Johns Hopkins gun violence researcher, said that it would have been \u201cmore justifiable\u201d to devote federal dollars to supporting Ceasefire and similar programs than it was to put the money toward school security. \u201cI don\u2019t know of any evidence that putting police in schools makes them safe, and I do know of evidence that having police in schools leads to more kids being arrested,\u201d he said.\nTwo weeks after Obama unveiled his plan, McBride and dozens of other clergy members, many of them from cities struggling with high rates of gun violence, met again with staffers from Vice President Biden\u2019s task force.\nThe mood at the January 29 meeting was tense. Many of the attendees, including McBride, felt the president\u2019s agenda had left out black Americans.\n\u201cThe policy people working for Biden worked with the reality of Congress,\u201d said Teny Gross, one of the original Boston Miracle outreach workers who now leads the Institute for Nonviolence Chicago. \u201cWhat they were proposing to us was very limited and was not going to help the inner city.\u201d\nGross said he \u201cblew a gasket.\u201d The clergy members in the room were pleading for help. \u201cWe bury hundreds of kids every year in the inner city,\u201d Gross recalled them telling the administration representative. \u201cSome of the solutions need to apply to us.\u201d\nA staffer said that the political will of the country was not focused on urban violence, several ministers who attended the meeting recalled.\n\u201cWhat was said to us by the White House was, there\u2019s really no support nationally to address the issue of urban violence,\u201d said the Rev. Charles Harrison, a pastor from Indianapolis. \u201cThe support was to address the issue of gun violence that affected suburban areas \u2014 schools where white kids were killed.\u201d\nThe Rev. Jeff Brown, from Boston, was angered by the administration\u2019s calculated approach. \u201cWhen you say something like that and you represent the President of the United States, and the first African-American President of the United States, you know, that\u2019s hugely disappointing,\u201d he said.\nFormer administration officials said they thought it was tragic that the everyday killings of black children did not get more political attention. \u201cI totally agree with their frustrations,\u201d a former official said. \u201cAt the same time, when the nation listens, you\u2019ve got to speak, and you don\u2019t get to pick when the nation listens.\u201d\nIt would turn out there was also little political will to realize the administration\u2019s gun-violence proposals. Measures to expand background checks and ban assault weapons died on April 17, 2013 when they couldn\u2019t muster the votes necessary to advance in the Senate.\nIn his 2014 budget recommendations around the same time, Obama again asked for more money for local grant programs to combat urban gun violence. He recommended tripling the funding for a Justice Department grant that helped cities adopt Ceasefire from $8 million to $25 million. Overall, he requested $79 million for grants to support similar initiatives. Obama had asked for almost twice that much to put more cops and psychologists in schools.\nCongress slashed Obama\u2019s requests across the board. Instead of approving $150 million to help schools hire cops and psychologists, it created a $75 million school safety research program.\nIt also rejected his proposed increases for Ceasefire and similar programs. Instead, Congress took many of the small grants and made them even smaller. One program was cut from $8 million to $5.5 million. Another shrank from $2 million to $1 million.\nIn all, Congress spent $31 million on five urban violence-related grants \u2014 less than half of what it approved for research on how to make schools safer.\nThere have been increasing concerns about rising murder rates over the past year in cities across the country. Some have blamed the increases on the \u201cFerguson Effect,\u201d \u2014 the theory that increased scrutiny of cops has made them reluctant to do their jobs \u2014 although there is \u201cno data\u201d to support this claim, as Attorney General Loretta Lynch said recently. It\u2019s not clear how much murders have increased nationwide. Each city has its own trend. Some have seen an uptick only in comparison to the historic lows they had last year. In other cities, violence is truly spiking. Baltimore recently recorded its 300th homicide this year, the most since 1999.\nIn Indianapolis, where homicides are set to increase for the third straight year, more federal funding might have made a difference. In early 2012, Indianapolis applied for a Justice Department grant to help implement Ceasefire, requesting $1.5 million over three years. But just four of more than roughly 60 cities that applied received funding. Indianapolis was not among them.\n\u201cAbsolutely, there\u2019s no doubt in my mind, if we had been awarded the grant we would have had the financial carryover to move the program forward,\u201d said Shoshanna Spector, the executive director of IndyCAN, a local faith-based advocacy group that pushed for Ceasefire.\nDouglas Hairston, who works on private-public partnerships at the Indianapolis mayor\u2019s office, said the city is currently doing \u201c60 to 70 percent\u201d of the Ceasefire strategy.\n\u201cFederal funds would have helped,\u201d he said. \u201cWe know that we could do more, and we\u2019re striving to find ways to do it.\u201d\nEarlier this year, Indianapolis Police Chief Rick Hite said the city was doing the strategy \u201cwith modifications\u201d and that the city is always using the \u201ctenets of Ceasefire.\u201d\nThere have been 133 murders so far this year in Indianapolis, according to police department data, up from 96 in 2012.\nIn Baltimore, Ceasefire appears to have struggled. The program\u2019s manager resigned in March, the Baltimore Sun reported. Webster, the researcher evaluating the effort, told the paper he questioned whether the rollout of Ceasefire in the Western District was \u201cbeing done on the cheap and being done in a way that is not even resembling the program model.\u201d\nOther cities have seen more success. New Orleans and Kansas City both saw drops in violence that researchers have credited to their new Ceasefire programs. Chicago has been rolling out call-ins to an increasing number of police districts. Gary, Indiana, and Birmingham, Alabama, both launched new Ceasefire programs this year. Cities have often paid for the programs using money from a variety of sources: federal dollars, local governments, and, increasingly local foundations.\nObama has launched an initiative to support young men and boys of color. One of the stated goals of My Brother\u2019s Keeper, which was launched last year, is reducing violence. The initiative is backed by more than $500 million in corporate and philanthropic commitments. But most of that money has been devoted to mentoring and education programs.\nOrganizers said they would reduce violence, too, albeit indirectly. \u201cI would challenge this notion that violence reduction resources or targeting is only to be looked at through the lens of reducing violence per se,\u201d Broderick Johnson, the chair of the My Brother\u2019s Keeper Task Force, told ProPublica. \u201cIt is just as important to look at it in terms of opportunities for young people to stay in school or get jobs or to get second chances.\u201d\nLast year, the Justice Department also launched a modest effort called the Violence Reduction Network, which provides cities with training and advice from former police chiefs and other crime-fighting experts. Many of the needs the network meets are basic: It helped Wilmington, Delaware police create a homicide unit. Wilmington, with 70,000 mostly black residents, has a higher murder rate than Chicago.\nRunning the network is inexpensive. It costs about $250,000 per city annually. But once again, it\u2019s not meeting the greater need. The program is targeted at the roughly four-dozen cities with the nation\u2019s highest violent crime rate. The government is only working with 10 of them.\nThe White House did not comment on questions about the administration\u2019s overall response to urban violence. The Justice Department offered the following statement: \u201cIn addition to focusing on violent crime reduction in cities, the department also responded to one of the worst mass shootings in our nation\u2019s history in Newtown by identifying funding for school resource officers to help keep kids safe in schools and to assist the many victims of this heinous crime.\u201d\nBiden\u2019s office also offered a statement: \u201cWhether it\u2019s by banning assault weapons, incentivizing local police to create better relationships with residents of America\u2019s cities, or finding alternatives to jail, including diversionary programs like drug courts, the Vice President has worked to support any viable solutions to reduce gun violence in our cities.\u201d\nWhen Jeff Brown was at the White House recently for an initiative on extremism, he ran into Biden.\n\u201cThe vice president walked up to me and said, \u2018Reverend Brown, good to see you,'\u201d Brown said. Biden said he remembered meeting Brown back in the \u201990s, when he visited Boston to hear more about Operation Ceasefire and the Boston Miracle.\n\u201cI hope we can bring back some of what we did in Boston,\u201d Brown said he told the vice president.\n\u201cI hope so, too,\u201d Biden replied.\nBrown laughed at the memory. \u201cYou\u2019re the vice president \u2014 can\u2019t you do something about it?\u201d\nLois Beckett is a ProPublica reporter covering politics, big data and information privacy issues.\nThis story was co-published with The New Republic.\nProduced by Emily Martinez and Hannah Birch.\nPrevious Post Weekly E-book: The Cost of FreedomPrevious Post\nNext Post Haiku 38Next Post",

        "raw_content": "IHS Markit projects growth, changes for alarm monitoring market to 2022\nCompany analyst recommends traditional security companies look more at value-added offerings\nLONDON\u2014IHS Markit, a research firm based here, recently released some insights on the alarm monitoring market in 2017 and what it predicts will happen by 2018 and 2022.\nOne highlight from the company\u2019s recent research is that the residential alarm monitoring market in the Americas region reached $12.5 billion in 2017, and IHS Markit expects it to grow to $13.7 billion in 2018.\n\u201cMost of the [central monitoring stations] that we spoke to are really focusing on these value-added services, which mostly tied into video\u2014and that could be video analytics, free video storage, things along those lines,\u201d Blake Kozak, IHS Markit principal analyst, smart home and security technology, told Security Systems News.\nKozak highlighted verification as a particular trend within video. \u201cI think that more and more consumers are more willing now to put video in their homes.\u201d\nIHS releases a report on the alarm monitoring market about every 12 to 18 months, according to Kozak.\nIHS is seeing more connected systems in the SMB market. \u201cIn 2017, there were 4.66 million SMB monitored accounts in the Americas region, of which, 980,000 were connected,\u201d Kozak said. The number of connected systems for SMB will almost double in the next four years.\n\u201cA lot of technology that was meant more for consumers \u2026 I think some of these devices are starting to find their way into small-medium business, and even enterprise to a certain extent, but much more so on the small-medium business side,\u201d Kozak said.\nThe traditional monitored account market for SMB is going to be growing around 2 percent annually over the next 5 years, he noted, and \u201cSMB connected accounts will continue to ramp up and will see double-digit growth starting in 2022.\u201d\nThere is a similar trend toward connected systems in the residential market, according to Kozak. \u201cThe traditional alarm monitoring market\u2014where you just have a keypad, you don\u2019t have a mobile app\u2014is actually going to be declining starting next year and the connected systems are going to be growing upwards of 18 to 25 percent annually.\u201d\nKozak continued, \u201cSo, it\u2019s not necessarily that the market\u2019s slowing, it\u2019s that the market is shifting.\u201d Dealers who aren\u2019t getting more involved with video and other value-added services will start to decline in a few years, \u201cespecially as you see more MSOs entering the space and more DIY-type systems,\u201d said Kozak.\nThe report looked at alarm monitoring for small- to medium-sized businesses and large enterprises as well as the residential space.\nMSOs and professionally monitored to DIY systems will collectively make up about 20 percent of the residential alarm monitoring market by 2022, according to IHS Markit; these portions of the market make up about 9.5 percent in 2017.\nMSOs will rise to cover about 14 percent by 2022, Kozak said.\nComcast is the more predominant MSO at this point in the U.S. market, Kozak said, as the provider accounts for 78 percent of MSO monitored accounts in the U.S. in 2017. \u201cThere aren\u2019t that many who have a lot of penetration at the moment but I think that as these MSOs expand out their ecosystem, I think they\u2019ll be in a much better position to perhaps converge or take customers, especially because \u2026 they own all of the aspects of entertainment and media,\u201d he said.\n\u201cIn order to overcome that, these dealers and other traditional security service providers will need to innovate around video more and partnerships,\u201d said Kozak.\nComcast recently purchased cloud-based automation provider Stringify in September 2018 and a business unit of Icontrol\u2014the Converge platform\u2014around March 2017, Kozak noted. \u201cSo, they\u2019re in a very good position to integrate their media content, their voice remote, all of these other features and functions that most traditional security service providers don\u2019t have.\u201d\nKozak advised that security service providers should be ready for a wave of consumers\u2014like millennials\u2014that are looking for offerings outside of traditional systems, with devices such air quality sensors and lighting, at a certain price point.\nDIY installed systems that are professionally monitored will remain a \u201crelatively small\u201d portion of the market, increasing from a 3 percent share of the market to about 6 percent over the next five years, said Kozak. Though, DIY installed and self-monitored systems are also a factor, he added. \u201cI don\u2019t think that the professional security market is going to be impacted, in the short term, by the DIY market.\u201d\nIHS Markit,\nBlake Kozak",

        "raw_content": "Kansas' Silvio De Sousa, left, and Sviatoslav Mykhailiuk celebrate at the end of Sunday's regional final game against Duke. The Jayhawks will face Villanova in the Final Four on Saturday.\tAP PHOTO\nRALEIGH, N.C. -- Welcome to a Final Four filled with past national champions -- just the way the NCAA selection committee drew it up, right?\nSure, there's plenty of the expected with 1-seed Villanova making it to San Antonio in pursuit of the program's second title in three seasons. Kansas is the other 1-seed to navigate its way through a maze full of upsets as it pursues its first title since 2008.\nAnd plenty figured No. 3 seed Michigan had a good shot to get to the Final Four as the Wolverines chase their first title since the Glen Rice-led group won the program's first in 1989.\nBut Loyola-Chicago? Consider the 11th-seeded Ramblers the representative for all the low seeds -- UMBC, Marshall and Buffalo, to name a few -- that pulled off the big stunners in an upset-filled and memorable March.\nAnd yes, the Ramblers do have a national championship, won way back in 1963 during the Kennedy administration.\nNow it's time to prepare for next Saturday's first national semifinal (Loyola vs. Michigan) featuring the upstart against the surging power-conference team in an undercard to the heavyweight matchup of top seeds in the nightcap.\nIt's a particular relief for Kansas, which had a No. 1 seed for the third straight season and lost in the Elite Eight the past two seasons -- including in 2016 to Villanova as the Wildcats marched to the national title.\n\"You think about it, hey, in their careers all we've been is the No. 1 overall seed, the No. 2 overall seed and the No.\n3 overall seed and haven't gotten to a Final Four,\" coach Bill Self said after Sunday's overtime win against Duke in Omaha, Nebraska. \"So that means that these guys have done so well to put us in a position but we hadn't kicked the door in yet.\n\"I'm happy for us, staff, school, everything, but I'm more happy for these guys because they deserve to experience what the best of college basketball is -- and that will be what takes place Saturday and Monday.\"\nFORESHADOWING?: If you're into good omens, note that Kansas won its last title in San Antonio by beating North Carolina and Memphis under Self a decade ago. And that was the program's first since Danny Manning and The Miracles won the 1988 title as a No. 6 seed -- now an even 30 years ago.\nSo maybe years ending in eight bring a bit of luck for the Jayhawks?\nRANKING THE SEEDS: Villanova was the No. 2 overall seed behind Virginia on Selection Sunday, putting the Wildcats as the headliner followed by Kansas at third. Michigan was No. 11 and Loyola-Chicago was No. 46.\nWINNING UGLY: Villanova and Michigan should arrive in Texas with an extra bit of confidence after winning games when they shot poorly.\nThe Wildcats shot just 33 percent and made 4 of 24 3-pointers (.167) in Sunday's East final against Texas Tech . The Wolverines shot nearly 39 percent but made just 4 of 22 3s (.182) in Saturday night's West final against Florida State.\nOn top of that, they combined to make 4 of 27 3s after halftime (.148). Yet here they are.\nTITLE HISTORY: Top seeds have hoisted the trophy on the final Monday night of the season in 18 of the past 26 NCAA Tournaments, while No. 3 seeds have won three times (Syracuse in 2003, Florida in 2006, Connecticut in 2011) in that span.\nVillanova remains the lowest-seeded team to win a title as a No. 8 in 1985.\nNOT SO WILD AFTER ALL: With all the upsets, it sure looked like the Final Four had a chance to be filled with surprises. It didn't end up that way.\nThe sum of the seeds for the four teams is 16, the highest since 2014 (18). But it was a far cry from joining the four other years since the tournament began seeding teams in 1979 that the combined total was at least 20: 1980 (21), 2000 (22), 2006 (20) and 2011 (26).\nThe last two of those were the most recent to feature an 11-seed before Loyola-Chicago's run, with George Mason getting there in 2006 and VCU doing it in 2011. The only other Final Four to feature a No. 11 seed came in 1986 with LSU, though the combined seed total was 15 on the strength of 1-seeds Duke and Kansas, and 2-seed Louisville (the eventual champion behind freshman Pervis Ellison) joining the Tigers in Dallas.\nACC'S MISS: The Atlantic Coast Conference was trying to get a team into the national-title game for the fourth straight year but ultimately fell short of the Final Four.\nDuke won the championship in 2015. Rival North Carolina lost to Villanova in the 2016 title game before coming all the way back and winning the 2017 title against Gonzaga. And 10th-seeded Syracuse was a surprise semifinalist in 2016 after upsetting No. 1 seed Virginia in a regional final.\nIMPROVED NUMBERS: ESPN said none of the 17.3 million entrees had the Elite Eight teams correct in its Tournament Challenge picks contest. But 550 people correctly had the Final Four teams.\nVillanova was the most popular pick to get there, winning the East Region on 58.4 percent of the submitted brackets.",

Their previous concert was in December 2002. The concert was co-organised by Soka Gakkai Malaysia, the Royal Thai Embassy and the Thai Trade Centre. It was attended by about 350 people including the Royal Thai Embassy\u2019s Deputy Chief of Mission Dr Thanes Sucharikul and representatives of several foreign missions. Led by its founder Anant Narkkong, Korphai is internationally acclaimed for its excellent rendition of Thai classical music and has performed in Thailand and other countries. The selection for this concert was based on the mode of Piphat, a principal type of orchestra or repertoire found in central Thailand and has been regarded as representative of Thai traditional music. Piphat is a combination of melodic and rhythmic percussions, together with woodwinds. Since ancient times, Piphat has played an influential role in Thai tradition, especially in rituals, temple ceremonies, local concerts and dance dramas. On July 14, the group gave a performance at SGM Culture Centre, attended by more than 700 people.",

        "raw_content": "February 06, 2019, Madrid, Spain |\nOne hundred fifty years ago in December 1868, the first traffic light in the world was installed in London outside the British Parliament of Westminster.\nUsing railway signals as a reference, rail engineer John Peake Knight designed the first traffic light used to control traffic. Its design consisted of two vertical arms with two gas lamps which were operated manually by a policeman. During the day, when the arm was upright it meant \u201cgo\u201d, and when it was in horizontal position it meant \u201cstop\u201d and at night, gas lamps were used with the color green for \u201cgo\u201d and red for \u201cstop. A few months after its installation, an accidental explosion seriously injured the policeman in charge of its operation and the traffic light was removed.\nThe growing need to control traffic due to increased use of various types of vehicles and the resulting traffic congestion led to the recovery of the traffic light at the beginning of the twentieth century. The evolution in the installation of the first electric streetlights allowed the invention of J.P. Knight to be adapted with a safer, electric design. Thus, the world's first electric traffic light was installed in Cleveland, USA in 1914. The first one in Europe was installed in Berlin, Germany, only 10 years later.\nIn 1926, the company SICE (linked at that point to General Electric, owner of the traffic light patent) installed for the first time in Spain a \u201cstreetlight with illuminated signals to regulate the circulation of pedestrians and vehicles\" which we now call a \u201ctraffic light\u201d. This first traffic light was installed in Madrid at the intersection of Calle Alcal\u00e1 and Conde de Pe\u00f1alver (today Gran Via). At that time this was one of the most complicated intersections in the city, so it was no coincidence that the main concessionaires: Citro\u00ebn, Fiat, Renault and Chrysler-Seida, were located there. By then, the color yellow had already been incorporated into the design of the traffic light, warning drivers of the next color change.\nGiven the widespread ignorance of citizens regarding the meaning of the traffic light colors, newspapers were used to communicate traffic regulations insistently and teach drivers and pedestrians when and how they should cross.\nOver time and with the advent of new technologies, traffic lights have evolved into what we now know as \u201csmart traffic lights\u201d. Of course, today\u2019s traffic is managed from a control center with specialized software made up of complex algorithms capable of regulating the flow of vehicles. But centralization has not diminished the relevance of the signal itself. In fact, SICE has already run the initial tests, giving it the ability to communicate with vehicles via 5G network, alerting them of the presence of pedestrians at crosswalks or the traffic light\u2019s current state in the case of blind turns.\nOne hundred and fifty years later, the traffic light continues to regulate the world and its use is universally known, ensuring that circulation is more fluid, comfortable and safe for both drivers and pedestrians.",

        "raw_content": "Damning report on Brazilian beef presented to European Parliament\nMEPs call for EU import ban\nBrussels, 17th July 2007 \u2014 The European Commission is \u201cin denial\u201d about the safety of Brazilian beef imports, Sir Robert Atkins MEP, Deputy Leader of the Conservative Delegation in the European Parliament said today, after it once again refused an EU import ban.\nThe European Parliament heard evidence from the Irish Farmers\u2019 Association (IFA) and the Farmers\u2019 Journal, which launched a joint investigation into Brazilian beef - reporting virtually no system of traceability, the illegal removing of tags and the use of illegal growth hormones.\nThe IFA visited a total of 42 farms ranging from suckler to beef farms, with herd sizes ranging from those slaughtering 200-300 cattle a year to those slaughtering more than 2,500. They reported that traceability on the farms was usually conjured up a few days before slaughter. None of the 15 farms on which an in-depth study was carried out had a full traceability system in place. The IFA also reported finding evidence of a number of official tags being illegally removed.\nPerhaps more concerning is the suspicion that beef may be getting through from regions where exports are banned following an outbreak of Foot and Mouth disease (FMD) in 2005. It is suspected tag removal may be allowing banned cattle to be moved into other regions where exports are still permitted.\nA Food and Veterinary office (FVO) report in 2006 highlighted a number of concerns regarding ear tagging and medicines being used that are banned in the EU. It also confirmed that the situation had not improved since 2003 when the last inspection was carried out.\nLast year the EU imported 333,000 tonnes of beef from Brazil, of which around 30,000 tonnes goes to the UK.\nConservative MEPs will lodge a \u2018written declaration\u2019 calling for an import ban on Brazilian beef when the Parliament returns in September.\n\u201cThe European Commission seems to be in denial about the safety of Brazilian beef imports. The credibility of the Commission is at stake here.\n\u201cThe EU requires its own beef producers to abide by stringent standards, particularly after outbreaks of Foot and Mouth and BSE in recent years. It is wrong both to consumers and farmers to force our own producers to comply with these standards while turning a blind eye to substandard products from Brazil.\n\u201cThe agriculture committee was not satisfied with the answers being supplied by the European Commission and we are calling a special meeting after the recess to which we will invite both the agriculture and health Commissioners.\u201d",

He never gave up with that chin-up attitude (and probably still hasn't to this day!)\nThe midwife did one final vaginal exam just before he was born. \"Is that a bum?\" she asked, just a little confused for a moment. \"No, it couldn't be...you're hearing the heartbeat in the right place. It must be a mouth,\" I said. \"It's the baby's lips!\" she called out. So, Kieran was born, after a crazy challenging labour, with his mum on her high bed, holding up her silk dress (dad had grabbed a dress for her to wear, and I think it was one that she'd recently worn to a wedding).\nWomen often ask me if they can eat once they're in labour.\n\"The books say I shouldn't, but I'm such a hummingbird eater, that I'll keel over if I don't keep eating!\"\n\"Oh, please listen to your body, and it will let you know what you should eat, and when you should eat,\" I answer.\nThink of the fuel that your body needs to do this amazing work!

The Conversation 20121108\nFirst wrecked, now pillaged: Vietnam\u2019s underwater treasure\nVery little is known about how many shipwrecks, or other underwater cultural heritage sites, might exist in Vietnam. Almost no maritime archaeology survey work has been done, but I think it is likely that there will be thousands of sites.\nUnfortunately, the little work that has been done in Vietnam in the past has often been done by, or in association with, treasure hunters. Large quantities of underwater cultural heritage have been sold. For example, thousands of ceramic artifacts from shipwrecks located at V\u0169ng T\u00e0u, Ca Mau, Binh Thuan and Hoi An have been sold at auction.\nOne of the problems with any government selling artifacts from shipwrecks is that it places a price on them. Instead of being considered part of the cultural heritage of the nation and belonging in museums or in public collections, they are considered primarily for their monetary value.\nRecently, a 14th century shipwreck was found in the waters of Binh Chau Commune (Binh Son District) in Quang Ngai province. Researcher Pham Quoc Quan, former director of the National History Museum of Vietnam, stated that experts had confirmed the recent shipwreck found in Quang Ngai dated back to the 14th century, but experts had been unable to explore the ship due to a lack of proper human resources and equipment. Experts also said that the ship contained various ceramic wares made in China during the 14th and 15th centuries.

        "raw_content": "In 1959, a bowling alley opened in suburban Philadelphia that cashed in on the names of two local and popular television news anchors, Jack Whitaker and John Facenda. Almost sixty years later and after a few needed facelifts, patrons still bowl at Facenda-Whitaker Lanes in East Norriton.\nIn the early 60s, Whitaker left local television and his hometown of Philadelphia, beginning a colorful journey through network television\u2019s dominant years. For a while, he was a prominent face of CBS Sports, hosting NFL pre-game shows and even sharing the play-by-play of the first Super Bowl in 1967 with Ray Scott.\nYet as his career evolved, Whitaker distinguished himself as an eloquent essayist and host, whose instantaneous and extemporaneous commentaries gave millions at home incisive perspectives; be it of the emotion of the Masters, the drama of the Triple Crown or heartwarming feats at Olympic games. Whether Secretariat, Jack Nicklaus or other champions and championships, Whitaker captioned moments with simple elegance and colorful verbal composure.\nOpening CBS\u2019 coverage of the last leg of Secretariat\u2019s Triple Crown championship, he suggested to viewers; \u201cBelmont is a true test of champions. And if you\u2019re looking for a place where it might be won or lost today, you might want to try that last quarter of a mile.\u201d Horses and the track remained so ingrained in Whitaker\u2019s parlance that years later when he was asked his age he said. \u201cI\u2019m rising to my 74th fence.\u201d\nJack was interchangeably identified with CBS\u2019 golf. \u201cWhat a way to escape winter,\u201d he would say. \u201cWe covered tournaments starting in December in Southern California and headed to Arizona, Texas and Florida before turning back north, just in time for spring!\u201d\nWhen CBS launched soccer coverage in the 60s, Whitaker did the play-by-play. But empty stadiums and America\u2019s unfamiliarity with the sport at the time didn\u2019t galvanize audiences on network television. Jack said, \u201cWe (CBS) couldn\u2019t get ratings and gave it up after a couple seasons,\u201d adding, \u201cI was never very good at play-by-play anyway. I was more comfortable as a host and essayist.\u201d Versatile, Whitaker seamlessly hosted diverse programs whether game shows or tours of local zoos.\nWhile Whitaker traveled the globe, his old partner John Facenda didn\u2019t stray far from Philly. Facenda was regularly behind a microphone at NFL Films\u2019 studios in nearby New Jersey. There, he would fondle his words famously and lower his baritone reverentially, interlacing the league\u2019s hits, tackles and drama in unhurried narrations. His sepulchral annunciation, \u201cThe frozen tundra of Lambeau Field\u201d is often imitated but never duplicated. Facenda passed in 1984.\nYounger readers are less likely familiar with Whitaker, a contemporary of the iconic Jim McKay; famous for anchoring ABC\u2019s Wide World of Sports and multiple Olympics. In many ways, Whitaker and McKay were cut of the same cloth. Jack though never had the regular and broad platform that McKay enjoyed in his ABC heyday. Yet both were nimble and stylish and their contributions transcended the field of competition.\nThe 1972 Munich Olympics and the coldblooded murder of 11 Israeli hostages demonstrated that McKay can tackle journalistic exigencies as well as any seasoned news anchor. Jack\u2019s last network role was at ABC where he was assigned to two divisions, sports and news. It\u2019s probably why Jack still tells budding broadcasters today, \u201cGet a good liberal arts education.\u201d\nA product of Tom Brokaw\u2019s \u201cgreatest generation,\u201d Whitaker, is a decorated military man who partook in the extended Normandie campaign where he was wounded by an artillery strike. Later, after graduating from St. Joseph\u2019s University, Whitaker launched his on-air career on radio.\n\u201cGrowing up my idols were the great columnists of the day. I loved guys like Red Smith and always wanted to write; to do what he did. As a kid, I loved Clem McCarthy on horse racing, Bill Stern, a dramatic storyteller and of course play caller, Ted Husing. Later I loved the three southern voices of New York baseball; Russ Hodges (Tennessee), Mel Allen (Alabama) and Red Barber (Florida). There was something very soothing about their deliveries.\u201d\nYou might say that in many ways Whitaker attained his creative dream. While he didn\u2019t turn words in newspaper columns, his stirring commentaries reached millions, something most newspaper columnists couldn\u2019t do then.\nPressed to compare Barber and his prot\u00e9g\u00e9 Vin Scully, Whitaker mused, \u201cI got to know Vin a bit too. We both covered the Masters for CBS.\u201d Without discounting Scully\u2019s play-by-play an iota, Whitaker admitted he might have enjoyed listening to Barber even more than Scully. \u201cI was impressed with Barber when I was young. His ease, his homespun phrases, \u2018The bases are FOBs,\u2019 (Full of Brooklyns), \u201cthe catbird seat and all that.\u2019\u201d\nJack isn\u2019t someone trapped in the good times of yesteryear. \u201cYesterday wasn\u2019t necessarily better than today. Today, the depth of coverage is better than it was years ago. But we wouldn\u2019t ask questions then in the manner they do today. Questions might sound rude today. Years ago, interviewers were softer.\u201d\nHow about the big dollars that network announcers make today? \u201cOh, that doesn\u2019t bother me. I made more money in my life than I ever thought I would.\u201d\nWhitaker was famous for suffering the ire of Cliff Roberts, the Masters\u2019 early and longtime czar. As the story goes, in 1966, Whitaker referred to the cluttered area around the 18th hole as a \u201cmob scene.\u201d The word mob didn\u2019t sit well with Roberts who asked CBS to no longer assign Jack to Masters\u2019 telecasts. There was more to it. During that same year, the CBS telecast fought the tyranny of the clock when Jack Nicklaus won a Monday playoff and CBS had to complete its coverage before the start of Walter Cronkite\u2019s Evening News. \u201cYou didn\u2019t mess with Cronkite,\u201d Whitaker said sternly. In the pressure packed minutes after the playoff ended, Whitaker wrapped up the telecast economically. Doing so, he made no mention of the green jacket ceremony which followed. It too irked Roberts.\nBanished, the incident stuck to Whitaker\u2019s ribs. \u201cIt was very crushing. I wasn\u2019t told that I was being dropped from the Masters until Jack Dolph (CBS sports director) told me in a cab shortly before the 1967 Masters. I was heartened though by some of the backlash and some nice pieces by columnists in the newspapers.\u201d Philosophical and confident, Whitaker picked himself off the mat. \u201cBeing around golf, you learn quickly that you lose more than you win. It teaches you to take your knocks and move on to the next shot.\u201d\nIt took some six years before Whitaker was asked back to CBS\u2019 coverage of Augusta. In 1994, when Gary McCord was dumped by the Masters for suggesting that the greens were waxed, Whitaker wrote him a trenchant note. \u201cYou\u2019ve taken me off that special list of being the only one in the nation (dropped by Augusta)!\u201d\nI asked Whitaker whether he had any regrets or forgettable experiences. He paused and thought long and hard, representative of a man who truly enjoyed the body of his long and rich career. \u201cNot really, he said.\u201d \u201cHow about Howard Cosell?\u201d I asked. Unflinchingly, he offered praise, \u201cI liked Howard Cosell as a person. He called me from time to time to see how I was doing. He cared about me and about others in the business. He would share job openings with me that might be good fits for my friends.\u201d Jack must be a forgiving man. USA Today\u2019s Rudy Martzke wrote that Cosell told him Jack Whitaker \u201cstunk.\u201d\n\u201cOne thing though,\u201d he added. \u201cI didn\u2019t like the way my career ended. When ABC (then owned by Cap Cities) didn\u2019t renew my contract, management never called me. I had to hear about it from my agent. That hurt. After some 60 years on air, I couldn\u2019t believe it.\u201d\nIf it took that long to feel the ruthlessness of a too-often merciless business, Whitaker was pretty lucky. Probably because he excelled at what he did.\nToday, Jack spends most of his time in the Philadelphia area. But when old man winter hits, he heads to Palm Springs where he spends time with his step son Scott Kiner, the biological child of baseball Hall of Famer Ralph Kiner. Scott\u2019s mother, tennis star Nancy Chaffee, married Jack after she divorced Ralph. Whitaker and Chaffee were married until her passing in 2002.\nTagged Bill Stern CBS Clem McCarthy Cliff Roberts Golf Jim McKay John Facenda Masters Mel Allen Ray Scott Red Barber Red Smith Rudy Martzke Russ Hodges Vin Scully\nAlthough I never met Jack, I had the pleasure of playing him in the ESPN/ABC made-for-TV movie Ruffian, which aired originally in 1967. It\u2019s the story of the filly who was euthanized after breaking her ankle in a 1973 match race with Kentucky Derby winner Foolish Pleasure. I did a standup in front of the paddock at Belmont Park. It was a thrill being cast in the role of the great Jack Whittaker. I even had a dressing room with Jack\u2019 s name on it. Glad to see he\u2019s still doing well and thanks for story. This is a great\u2026 Read more \u00bb\nThis story is so nice to see. When I was growing up, CBS golf was Scully, Whitaker, Wright, and Summerall in the towers, and it\u2019s hard to top that for literate, intelligent reporting on a sport. Whitaker was called the Eric Sevareid of sports for his commentaries, and they were a joy to listen to.",

That they failed to do so is unconscionable. No newborn should be left to suffer or die without medical care. It is barbaric and merciless to leave these vulnerable infants without any care or rights. Congress must take up and pass this bill and ensure that the legacy of Roe v. Wade does not extend itself from killing unborn children to killing newborn babies.\u201d\nThe Archbishop also sent a letter to the U.S. Senate today urging the body to bring the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act to the floor for a vote and to pass it this week. In his letter, Archbishop Naumann asked the Senate to support the \u201ccommon-sense legislation\u201d that would protect infants who survived abortion attempts.\nKeywords: U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, USCCB, Archbishop Joseph F.

Coupled with the news of the Russian reaction to this decision I am concerned for the potential of a new arms race created by these decisions.

Kurtz of Louisville, chairman of the USCCB Committee for Religious Liberty, sent a letter to the Senate Judiciary Committee asking senators not to impose a religious test for public office. The letter states, in part, as follows:\n\u201cIn recent months, multiple nominees to the federal judiciary have been interrogated about their membership in the Knights of Columbus, with the implication that participation in the largest Catholic fraternal organization in the country \u2013 a respected organization that has accomplished so much good for over a century \u2013 could be disqualifying. Not only are religious tests unconstitutional and unjust, they are an attack on all people of faith and those with no faith at all. Religious tests tell not only Catholics, but all Americans, that they cannot both serve their country and live out their convictions.\u201d\nArchbishop Kurtz concluded, \u201cI implore you: end these discriminatory questions and refrain from further imposing religious tests on judicial nominees.\u201d\nThe full letter can be found here: http://www.usccb.org/issues-and-action/religious-liberty/upload/Abp-Kurtz-Letter-to-Senate-No-Religious-Test-for-Judicial-Nominees-February-2019.pdf\nKeywords: Archbishop Joseph Kurtz, USCCB, Senate Judiciary Committee, judicial nominees, religious tests, religious liberty, religious freedom, Knights of Columbus\nKeywords: United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, USCCB, Archbishop Joseph F.

The Act would prevent the federal government, and any state receiving federal funds for child welfare services, from taking adverse action against a provider that declines to conduct its services in a manner that would violate its religious or moral principles.\n\"Our first and most cherished freedom, religious liberty, is to be enjoyed by all Americans, including child welfare providers who serve the needs of children,\" wrote Bishop Frank J. Dewane of Venice, chairman of the Committee on Domestic Justice and Human Development; Archbishop Joseph E. Kurtz of Louisville, chairman of the Committee for Religious Liberty; and Bishop James D. Conley of Lincoln, chairman of the Subcommittee for the Promotion and Defense of Marriage; in letters of support to Rep. Mike Kelly (R-PA) in the U.S. House of Representatives, and Sen. Mike Enzi (R-WY) in the U.S. Senate, who introduced the bipartisan bill.\nSome faith-based child welfare providers, including in Massachusetts, Illinois, California, Philadelphia, New York, and the District of Columbia, have been excluded from carrying out adoption and foster care services because the providers act on their belief that children deserve to be placed with a married mother and father. The chairmen said, \"The Inclusion Act would remedy this unjust discrimination by enabling all providers to serve the needs of parents and children in a manner consistent with the providers' religious beliefs and moral convictions.\"\nStressing that the Inclusion Act respects the importance of a birth mother\u2019s choice, the chairmen remarked, \"Women and men who want to place their children for adoption ought to be able to choose from a diversity of adoption agencies, including those that share the parents' religious beliefs and moral convictions.\"\nThe letters of support are available online at http://www.usccb.org/issues-and-action/marriage-and-family/marriage/promotion-and-defense-of-marriage/upload/CWPIA-Endorsement-Letter-2019-to-Rep-Kelly.pdf and http://www.usccb.org/issues-and-action/marriage-and-family/marriage/promotion-and-defense-of-marriage/upload/CWPIA-Endorsement-Letter-2019-to-Sen-Enzi.pdf\nA backgrounder on the Inclusion Act is available at http://www.usccb.org/issues-and-action/marriage-and-family/marriage/promotion-and-defense-of-marriage/upload/CWPIA-Backgrounder-2019.pdf\nKeywords: U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, USCCB, federal court, marriage, adoptions, Archbishop Joseph Kurtz, Bishop James Conley, Bishop Frank Dewane, Subcommittee for the Promotion and Defense of Marriage, Committee for Religious Liberty, Committee on Domestic Justice and Human Development, Child Welfare Provider Inclusion Act, religious freedom, religious liberty, House of Representatives, Senate, Congress\nU.S. Bishops\u2019 Chairman on Pro-Life Activities Calls All People of Good Will to Stand Up and Protect Unborn and Born Infants\nWASHINGTON\u2014Archbishop Joseph F. Naumann of Kansas City, KS and Chairman of the U.S. Bishops\u2019 Committee on Pro-Life Activities has issued the following statement in response to the introduction of a bill in the Virginia legislature that would allow a baby to be aborted at nine months. Although the bill was defeated there, a similar bill was passed by the New York legislature and signed into law by its Governor.\n\u201cA Virginia lawmaker has introduced a bill which would allow a baby to be aborted at nine months, even if the mother is just about to give birth. This legislation shocks the conscience and is made more egregious by the Governor of Virginia suggesting the permissibility of denying care to infants born alive during the abortion. This senseless disrespect for new human life is horrifying.

        "raw_content": "Home \u25ba The Reference Room \u25ba Food Storage Ideas (Article Collection) \u25ba Food Additives?\nHome Food Storage and Healthy Food Choices\n\u201cOur products do not contain aluminum, artificial fragrances, artificial flavours, dyes, mineral oil, parabens, petrolatum, phtalates, artificial preservatives, triclosan or other unwanted artificial ingredients.\u201d Thus states The Green Beaver Company, a Canadian firm manufacturing \u201chealthy all natural personal care products\u201d, as they describe the toothpastes which they include in their lineup of products.\nThis is all part of a growing trend, a trend to go back to the natural, and the organic. Many consumers now actively seek products that are not filled with unknown and, to them, suspect chemicals. They don\u2019t want cosmetics that have gone through much animal testing on the way to marketability. They want products that are environmentally safe and people friendly.\nThis thinking, however, is not limited to toothpaste and face creams. Our food supplies are also now coming under increased scrutiny by those who want to address these legitimate concerns. The typical North American now enjoys unprecedented choice, convenience and abundance when it comes to choosing food supplies for fridge, freezer or kitchen cupboard. Yet, is there a hidden price being paid? The answer to that depends upon what you feel about food additives, and to just what you consider to be an additive. Even fresh food can sometimes be suspect. Is it possible that those tomatoes might have a trace of pesticide residue left upon them? What really is in that waxy substance that is used to make those apples so shiny and attractive?\nOften preservatives are necessary. They can extend shelf life, add flavor, and hinder bacterial growth. They are what have made possible much of the abundance and variety that we enjoy today. But is there anything that we can do to cut back on at least some of these chemicals that we almost unknowingly consume each and every day? Well, that is one area in which home food storage can play a role.\nConsider a package of beef jerky. It is relatively inexpensive, easily available, and tasty. Check out the package cover. It likely says right on it, \u201cHigh in Protein \u2013 Low in Fat.\u201d That certainly sounds like a nice, healthful snack, but what\u2019s all of that in the list of ingredients? There\u2019s beef, water, sugar, soy sauce, salt, spices, maltodextrin, monosodium glutamate, hydrolyzed corn protein, sodium erthorbate, sodium nitrite and mesquite smoke. If you don\u2019t like it, don\u2019t eat it. There\u2019s no other choice. This is on a \u201ctake it or leave it basis.\u201d You could, of course, look for another brand, but, again, you cannot remove what has already been added, and there is sure to have been something added.\nYet, making beef jerky at home is also a possibility. You\u2019ll probably want a dehydrator and some lean ground beef. You will probably want to add some things yourself, but now you do get to choose. There is a commercially available product sold under the brand name Jerky Works. They provide jerky making tools and flavorings. Typically, you would mix one of their flavor packets and one of their cure packets with one pound of that lean, ground beef. Yes, this means there are still \u201cadditives\u201d, but now you are only adding Dextrose, Salt, Natural Spices, Hickory Smoked Flavor, Onion Powder, Garlic Powder, Monosodium Glutamate, Hydrolyzed Vegetable Protein, and Imitation Maple Flavor in the seasoning, and salt and sodium nitrate in the \u201ccure\u201d. Is that better?\nMany would say, \u201cyes\u201d, but if you are saying, \u201cno\u201d, you still have the option of doing your own flavoring and curing. One recipe calls for flank steak, soy sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, Worcestershire sauce, and seasoning salt. Is that even better? It might be, but you might want to consider the fact that Worcestershire sauce also has a list of ingredients \u2013 malt vinegar, white vinegar, blackstrap molasses, soya sauce (water, wheat, soybeans, salt, sodium benzoate), brown sugar, salt, spices, onion powder, garlic powder, tamarind concentrate, caramel color, anchovies, citric acid, spice extract, polysorbate 80, sulphites and natural flavor as found in one brand.\nOne could choose another recipe, but the simple fact is that you are unlikely to be able to entirely eliminate these so-called food additives whether you are buying it from the store, or whether you are doing your own food processing. Even salt, which is so often used and so often termed a \u201cnatural\u201d ingredient, is actually a chemical \u2013 sodium chloride, so with it, you are still adding chemicals. On the other hand, by doing it yourself you do get to exercise control. You pick. You choose. They\u2019re additives which you will have approved.\nBeef jerky might not be something that would appeal to a vegan, but it does make for a good example. The fact is these choices can be made in relation to all sorts of food storage. Check out the additives in that can of tomato sauce. What could you eliminate if you made your own sauce? Would a food washer put your mind at ease when it comes to those pesticide residues? Are you a hiker and enjoy trail mix, but have trouble finding something suitable for you personally? Again, you can do it yourself, and control it yourself.\nHome food storage can indeed save you money, but it can also allow you to make more healthful food choices.\nBack to Article Directory",

        "title": "Is it Christianity or Mithraism?",
        "raw_content": "Introduction by Lewis Loflin\nI have no use at all for fundamentalist Christians and have never been a Christian. Yet when I find nonsense such as that below on the web, I have to take issue with false information.\nThe article cites no sources nor can I even locate who wrote this article. Very simply Jesus was not Mithra, Zoroaster, or Buddha. He also wasn't the Jewish Messiah, while Mithraism certainly had no trinity.\nIn Religions of Antiquity (Selltzer 1989) noted Mithraism was a product more of the Roman Empire rather than Persia. Mithra was born in a cave or emerged from a rock (not a virgin birth) the cult excluded women (Christianity didn't) and had seven levels of ascension (Christianity didn't) and was tied heavily into astrology, which Christianity wasn't.\nFurther, Mithra was a warrior, Jesus was no such thing. While it is true the later Christian Church grafted common aspects of paganism onto the faith (Mithra's birthday was December 25, Jesus birth date in not stated in the Bible and is unknown), doesn't distract from the fact the two faiths had nothing in common.\nSo I wrote a response to this nonsense in Debunking the Jesus-Mithra Connection. In my view and from my research Christianity grafted pagan elements onto the faith after the 1st. Century in its efforts to sever the faith from Judaism. I let the original trash stand as a record of bad scholarship. L. Loflin\nAlso see Saul of Tarsus, Mithraic Cults, and Christ's Blood\nIt is surprising that Christianity was to become the international religion, when one considers that the already well-established religion of Mithraism was a natural challenger for that title.\nUp until the time of the Emperor Constantine, it was the latter religion which was more popular within the framework of the Roman Empire, and Christianity was regarded as being only one sect amongst numerous other sects.\nIt was only when Constantine decreed that Christianity was to be the state religion, that Mithraism, together with a host of other religions and sects, was put into the melting pot, and ideas of that religion, most suited for the Christian purpose, were absorbed into the new state-approved religion.\nMithraism, the religion followed by those who worshipped the sun god Mithra, originated in Persia about 400 BC, and was to spread its Pagan ideas as far west as the British Isles.\nIn the early centuries of the Christian era, Mithraism was the most wide-spread religion in the Western World, and its remains are to be found in monuments scattered around the countries of Europe, which then comprised the known civilized world.\nMithra was regarded as created by, yet co-equal with, the Supreme Deity. Mithraists were Trinitarian, kept Sunday as their day of worship, and their chief festivals were what we know of as Christmas and Easter.\nLong before the advent of Jesus, Mithra was said to have been born of a virgin mother, in a cave, at the time of Christmas, and died on a cross at Easter. Baptism was practiced, and the sign of the cross was made on the foreheads of all newly-baptized converts.\nMithra was considered to be the Saviour of the world, conferring on his followers an eternal life in Heaven, and, similar to the story of Jesus, he died to save all others, provided that they were his followers.\nFor three centuries both religions ran parallel, Mithraism first becoming known to the Romans in 70 BC, Christianity following a century later, and it wasn't until AD 377 that Christianity became sufficiently strong to suppress its former rival, although Mithraism was to remain a formidable opponent for some time after that, only slowly being forsaken by the people. It was only the absorption of many Mithraist ideas into Christianity which finally saw its downfall.\nThe big turning point was brought about by the Congress of Nicaea in AD 325. Constantine, a great supporter of the Christian religion, although not converting to it until the time of his decease, gathered together 2,000 leading figures in the world of theology, the idea being to bring about the advent of Christianity as the official state religion of Rome.\nIt was out of this assembly that Jesus was formally declared to be the Son of God, and Saviour of Mankind, another slain Saviour god, bringing up the tally of slain god-men to seventeen, of which Mithra, together with such men as Bel and Osiris, was included.\nJust as Nicaea can be regarded as the birthplace of Christianity, so too it can be regarded as the graveyard of what we imagine Jesus taught. From that time onwards, Christianity was to absorb the superstitions of Mithraism, and many other older religions, and what was believed to have happened to earlier Saviour gods, was made to center around the Nazarene.\nThe coming of Christianity under state control was to preserve it as a religion, and was the death knell of all other sects and cults within the Roman Empire.\nHad Constantine decided to retain Mithraism as the official state religion, instead of putting Christianity in its place, it would have been the latter that would have been obliterated. To Constantine however, Christianity had one great advantage, it preached that repentant sinners would be forgiven their sins, provided that they were converted Christians at the time of their Passing, and Constantine had much to be forgiven for.\nHe personally did not convert to the new religion until he was on his death bed, the reason being that only sins committed following conversion were accountable, so all sins committed by a convert, prior to conversion, didn't matter, and he could hardly have sinned too much whilst he was lying on his death bed.\nMithraism could not offer the same comfort to a man like Constantine, who was regarded as being one of the worst mass-murderers of his time.\nThe Emperor Julian, who followed Constantine, went back to Mithraism, but his short reign of only two years could not change what Constantine had decreed. His defeat, and death, at the hands of the Persians, was used by the Christians as an argument in favor of the new, against the old, being looked upon as an omen that Christianity had divine approval.\nIf Julian had been spared to reign some years longer, the entire history of international religion would almost certainly have been different.\nUnder Emperor Jovian, who followed Julian, the substitution of Christianity for Mithraism made further progress, and old Pagan beliefs, like the Virgin Birth, Baptism and Holy Trinity, became generally accepted as the basis of the state religion.\nThe early Christian idea of Unitarianism was quickly squashed in favor of Trinitarianism, and those who refused to accept the Holy Trinity were put to the sword, the beginning of mass slaughter in the name of religion, which was to go on for centuries.\nCopyright unknown. The above is trash.\nRef. Mercian Order of St.George",

        "raw_content": "Tattoo Blog \u00bb Celebrity \u00bb King Body Art The Extreme Ink-Ite Wants New Tattoos\nKing Body Art The Extreme Ink-Ite Wants New Tattoos\nI often talk about tattoo regret and how important it is to get the tattoo that will provide you with the least amount of grief. I\u2019ve seen some especially regretful tattoos recently, like the teenager in Norway who got his McDonald\u2019s receipt inked on to his forearm, or the one of the baby\u2019s hand holding the mother\u2019s finger , but at the very least, these tattoos are nothing that a bit of covering up or lasering off can\u2019t handle. Sure, these are the types of tattoos that will most likely cause their owners more general discomfort than the actual tattooing process itself did, but when all is said and done, the process to get rid of these tattoos wouldn\u2019t be too problematic.\nWhat definitely would be problematic is spending years and mass quantities of money covering your body with tattoos, only to realise that you no longer wanted the tattoos. And because of this, you were prepared to spend even more money yet on having every last tattoo lasered off. And then! You wanted to re-tattoo your entire body. Yes indeed, that would be problematic. It\u2019s also exactly what Britain\u2019s most tattooed man, King Body Art The Extreme Ink-Ite (yes, that\u2019s his legally certified name) AKA The King of Inkland, is in the process of doing.\nKing Body Art The Extreme Ink-Ite (KBATEII) has spent \u00a330,000 ($49,915USD) on tattoos since the age of sixteen (he\u2019s now 34). His entire body is covered in tattoos, yet despite this, he has begun the undoubtedly lengthy and painful process of having said tattoos removed. He has set aside \u00a36,000 ($9,983USD) for laser treatments and is already looking forward to getting started on re-building his body art from scratch.\n\u201dI think of myself like an art gallery. After a while the art gets old and people want to see something new and that\u2019s how I feel about my tattoos,\u2019 he said.\n\u2018I\u2019ve had enough of them and I\u2019ve run out of skin to tattoo on \u2013 so I thought why not get them lasered off and just start again\u2019.\u2019\n\u2018He said: \u2018I can finally see the skin underneath and the laser process is a gruelling one. My skin is currently blistered- but that\u2019s good because it means it is healing.\u2019\nThe King of Inkland has now started planning his next set of tattoos which he is anxious to get in place of the ones he has removed.\n\u2018Some of my friends think I\u2019m bonkers, and it might seem odd to some people but to me I am a living canvas,\u2019 he said.\n\u2018I can\u2019t wait for the day to put new artwork in their place. It would be tomorrow if I had my way however I have to wait until the treatment to see when it completely heals.\u201d\nOn the one hand, I see his point about being a \u201cliving canvas\u201d \u2013 it\u2019s kind of cool to think that there is a person who changes tattoos and will have different sets of tattoos as time passes. That\u2019s my objective view, anyway. My slightly more practical view wonders to what degree KBATEII is simply trying to gain media attention for himself. I mean, really \u2013 getting rid of all your tattoos so that you can do it all over again? That\u2019s a bit much. I\u2019m sure he\u2019s having a great time and I\u2019m glad that he\u2019s fortunate enough to even be in a position to afford the cost of getting all his tattoos removed and redone. But let\u2019s be honest. It\u2019s a bit of a publicity stunt, isn\u2019t it?\nPosted in Celebrity, News, Stories, Tattoo Removal",

        "raw_content": "Thailand Land Lease\nLand leases in Thailand share some of the same characteristics as land leases in other countries. However, there are also some special considerations that apply to land leases in Thailand.\nThailand Land Leases FAQs\nCan a foreigner obtain 100% interest for a land lease in Thailand\nYes. A foreigner can obtain 100% interest for a land lease in Thailand. Unlike direct land ownership, the law allows foreigners to obtain long-term land leases.\nDo I have to register the land lease at the Land Department?\nLeases of up to three years do not need to be registered but registration at the Land Department is compulsory for leases that are three years or longer.\nWhat is the maximum lease term available?\nThe maximum lease term available is 30 years, with an option to renew for an additional 30 years. Each lease renewal (as long as it is greater than 3 years) that is agreed upon with the landowner must be registered at the local land office. For each new registration, taxes will be levied. Land for industrial or commercial purposes may be leased for up to 50 years by a foreign company under certain circumstances, with the possibility of extending the lease thereafter.\nWhy is land leasing favored by foreigners who wish to own property in Thailand?\nDue to the numerous obstacles faced by foreigners who wish to buy land or purchase property in Thailand, many instead choose to acquire land on a 30-year leasehold with an option to extend. This is the simplest and most straightforward way for foreigners to acquire property in Thailand. In addition, a lease stays valid even in the event that the property or the land is sold.\nWhat are the advantages of having a land lease over purchasing land with a company?\nA foreigner's lease rights are formally recognized by the Thai law. In comparison, a limited company has several shareholders who may have different interests to yours, and this could translate into potential risks for you and your objectives. Also, a company requires regulatory compliances such as annual balance sheets to be filed with the Tax Department.\nWhat are some of the drawbacks of land leases?\nEven a well-constructed land lease and a separate option agreement to extend the lease between the landowner and the lessee cannot guarantee the timely renewal of the lease. A landowner may refuse to sign any registration for the lease extension beyond the 30-year expiration. Although the lessee can sue the landowner for breach of contract, the legal process entailed may be costly and time-consuming. Other drawbacks include the difficulty in obtaining a mortgage for a lease (as opposed to direct ownership); a lower resale value; and potential lawsuits from the landowner for lease violations.\nEntering into a lease, or forming a company to buy land or purchase property - both methods have its advantages and disadvantages.

        "raw_content": "Happy 75th Birthday Grandpa\nsealing day\nI can\u2019t believe this day finally came. I sometimes think \u201cWhat did I do to deserve this?\u201d I fought for this for so long, it's kind of hard to wrap my head around the fact that I Kierra am now sealed to Nick Irvine for eternity! If you were to ask me, even a few years ago, if we would get to this point, I probably would have said no.\nI was so nervous for this day, and I had no idea what to expect. I think what I was most nervous about was how Nick would react to everything. Nick is very level headed, and never seems to be phased by anything, but because I didn\u2019t know what exactly happens in the Temple, I couldn\u2019t guess how Nick would react.\nWe started the day with getting our Endownments. We arrived at the Calgary, Alberta Temple at 8:30 in the morning! I remember throughout the entire Endowment session I kept looking over at Nick to see how he was doing. I tried looking at his face to see his expression, to see how he was reacting, but he was cool and calm as ever. I was very surprised at how well he took everything in. My mom told me that because I grew up in the church, and Nick didn\u2019t, that it may actually be me who would be more shell-shocked. She was right, I was shocked, and kind of blown away with everything. It felt a little foreign to me. I guess because I grew up thinking one thing, yet everything done inside the Temple is different (but in a good and beautiful way) was what made me so astonished. I guess because over the past year and a half, everything has been so new to Nick, that this was just another new thing for him to take part in.\nI hope to go back soon and do another Endowment session. A few people have told me that we should go back as soon as possible, so we can try and better understand what is being taught. My friend Nicole also stated that we should take advantage of going often while we still don\u2019t have kids!\nIt was a special experience, and I am really glad that Nick and I got to share it together. It really made me feel closer to him, and make our relationship stronger. He has continuously surprises me with how well he remains calm when thrown into new situations and changes. I don\u2019t do well with changes \u2013 I tend to freak out when I am faced with new obstacles (you should have seen my melt down in Australia), but Nick has such a calming effect over me.\nLater that afternoon, Nick and I were sealed for time and all eternity. The sealing was so special. It was so beautiful, and you could just feel the spirit there. My mom and dad were crying with tears of joy, and they just kept saying how proud they were. It was simple and sweet, but we know it comes with eternal blessings.\ngreen leather studded jacket\nA few weekends ago, we went out to Nick\u2019s dad\u2019s house to celebrate Megan & Ray\u2019s birthday. Ray (Nick\u2019s dad) called it the 20/60 party because Megan was turning 20 this month, and Ray turned 60. It was a fun night, but the best part was when Nick pulled out his jacket that he wore all throughout high school. Whenever I try to describe what Nick was like back in high school, the first thing I say to people is \u201cWell, he wore this Green Leather Studded jacket\u201d. According to Sandy, Nick spent hours putting studs on it. Back then I thought the jacket it was hideous, but I kind of love it now. Nick keeps it stored at his dad\u2019s house partly out of fear that I may secretly get rid of it, and maybe a few years ago I may have toyed with that idea. However that jacket has become sort of sentimental to me, and maybe, just maybe, Nick will bring it home one day.\nfor time & all eternity\nI really do not have time this week to be writing a post with all the things I have left to do. I have so much to get done and ready for Saturday, it\u2019s crazy. At the same time, I think it is really important that I document this extremely special moment and time in my life. I want to document this, because I want to be able to go back and read what my feelings were leading up to our Sealing Day. I also hope to one day show this to my children, so they know will know that the real reason I fought to be sealed to Nick was because of them.\nSince I was a little girl, I have always wanted to go the temple and be married for time and all eternity. I sang the primary song \u201cI love to see the Temple\u201d all the time, and it just became so important for me to make this covenant. When Nick and I started dating, I really thought it was just going to be a temporary thing, and that I would break it off within 3 months (yes \u2013 he is now aware that this was my thinking back when we first started dating). He wasn\u2019t LDS, and I figured that I could just date him for fun. After those 3 months though \u2013 I began to fall in love with him. He was sweet, thoughtful, driven and kind. What attracted me the most to him was the fact that though he was only 19 years old, he knew what he wanted to do in life. He had future plans and goals, and I saw all the hard work he was putting in to make sure he would accomplish those goals. He even talked about kids, marriage and buying a house! Most guys I knew his age couldn\u2019t even tell me where they wanted to be in a year. One night when I think we had only been dating for just over 4 months he told me that he already had a girl name picked out! It kind of freaked me out that he had thought of baby name (he didn\u2019t say it was going to be our baby name), and that it was a GIRL name. It was just so endearing to me that he wanted kids and a family. He made me feel beautiful all the time, and treated me like a queen. I was torn.\nOf course we talked about religion and what I believed in. He met with the missionaries a few times, but he just was not interested. He knew I wanted to be married in the temple, and he knew the reasons why it was so important to me. We talked about marriage after dating for 6 months, but I wanted it to be my way.\nI remember so clearly one day driving to Bragg Creek one Sunday to meet with some friends and I was talking to my mom on the phone. I think Nick and I had been together for over a year at that time, and I just couldn\u2019t imagine being with anyone else. I was bawling my eyes out because I just loved Nick so much, but the thought of my children not being sealed to me was even a bigger blow. She told me her feelings on the situation, and just told me that she would support me no matter what I decided. It was a really tough time in my life, deciding if I would live this double life, and would I be okay with raising my kids in the gospel by myself.\nAfter 2 years of Nick and me dating, I visited my old Young Women\u2019s President for some advice. She was married to a non-member at that time, but raised her kids in the gospel (since then, she has actually gotten re-married in the Temple this past November to a worthy priesthood holder, and she is just glowing with happiness). Basically by the end of our visit she told me that if she had to do it all over again, she would not have married him. That was pretty darn clear. It wasn\u2019t the answer I wanted, but she was being very honest.\nNick and I continued to date on & off for the next year or so, and I did date other guys who were members, but they never treated me the way Nick did. Once I got to know them really well, I found that just because they were LDS, didn\u2019t mean they were really that great.\nAnyways I moved away in the summer of 2010 for work, and to also make a clean break from Nick. I met some nice guys in Saskatoon, but my heart belonged to Nick. I guess his heart belonged to me, because his heart softened, and he began to take what I thought was really important more seriously. We talked, I moved back, he took the discussions and committed to being baptized in July 2011. Words can not express my feelings that day. I felt like I was the luckiest girl in the world. Not only was I getting the man that I loved, but I was also getting the marriage I have always wanted.\nI am so excited for Saturday. My eyes fill with tears when I think about it. I am so nervous. I have been waiting for this day my whole life. Our wedding day was beautiful, and the happiest day of my life. However, being sealed to Nick will be even more important to me.\n5 Years. I feel like I've been waiting forever, and now it's finally here.\nI really don\u2019t know what to expect. Everyone has tried to tell us as much as they could, but it isn\u2019t the same. I\u2019m a little scared. I\u2019m overjoyed. I'm nervous. I\u2019m happy.\nI love old photos. I guess you could say that as a hobby, I try to to collect as many old photos as I can. Two Christmas's ago I stole a bunch of Nick's moms albums as I could, and I scanned away. I ended up scanning about 1,500 photos for Sandy for Christmas. I still haven't finished scanning all of her photos, but that is something that I would love to accomplish this year. I would also like to get my hands on some of Nick's Grandma Cory's photos as well.\nI'm not quite sure what my fascination with old family pictures is, I guess I just love to see what people look like over the years. What they use to look like, how they dressed and how that changes throughout the years. It's a snapshot of history.\nIf you ask my husband, he jokes that I have to take photos of everything. He tells people that if I don't take pictures, then it never happened. It's just so important to me to take photos all the time.\nI love that one day I can show my children these photos, and show them the family they come from. Though I'm not into genealogy, like the data collecting part, my parents say that this is a form of genealogy.\nAnyways, this week I got my hands on some old photos from my Grandma Lybbert, and I can't wait to get some more. It's seriously an addiction!\nMy Grandparent's on their Wedding Day\nHow beautiful is my Grandma? I just love hr dress.\nMy Grandpa on his 1st Birthday\nMy Grandpa on his Mission in Toronto\nGrandpa is the Rodeo\nMy mom with her parents\nMy Aunt JJ, Uncle Paul, Mom, Aunt Wanda, and Aunt Connie\nSo 2013 has only just started, and already there are so many things happening this year, its crazy!\nI know 2012 was a great year, and the best year I have ever had (hello \u2013 I got married), but 2013 is looking like it has a chance to be just as good.\nNick and I are going to hosted a little get together at our house for New Years Eve. I invited a bunch of people, but it\u2019s for people that don\u2019t have any other plans. Usually I get sad when people don\u2019t come to the parties I (and my friends) plan, but for this one, I really didn\u2019t care because New Years Eve usually is busy and there are lots of other parties going on that evening anyways.\nJanuary is seriously shaping up to be an insanely busy month! I swear it\u2019s going to be just as busy as December. First, Nick and I have been invited to his dad\u2019s 20/60 party, which sounds like so much fun. Nick\u2019s dad turn 60 at the beginning of the month, and his sister turns 20 at the end of the month, so they usually have a combined family birthday in the middle. A bunch of my friends like Crystal and Bianca have been invited \u2013 as well as my parents. I just love that our families get along, and it will be nice to have a party with everyone there.\nThe weekend after that, Nick and I will finally be sealed together in the Calgary Alberta Temple. I am just so excited, and I feel like we\u2019re getting married again! Haha. It will seriously be another very long day, as we are getting our Endowments that morning, and then we get sealed later that afternoon. Once we have photos taken both with family, and then finally just us \u2013 we have to head back to Okotoks that evening for an Open House being hosted by my parents. Oi.\nFinally the last weekend of January, Nick and I will be going to a surprise party! I can\u2019t say much, because I don\u2019t want to ruin the surprise (and I've been known to do that) \u2013 but I promise to post about it after it\u2019s all done!\nNot too much is happening in February at the moment, but I think that will be a good thing, because March will be a little busy again. I will be hosting my sister\u2019s baby shower, which I just have so many ideas for already! I am so excited for her, as I hope this will be the start of some good karma that she so desperately needs (once things clear up \u2013 which may not be for awhile, I will for sure be doing a post on my sisters/family\u2019s situation. All I can say is wow \u2013 there are some awful people in this world).\nI am so excited for April! First Nick and I will be celebrating our 1st Year Anniversary. We may not do anything too exciting as Nick will be finishing up school, but it will be cool to say that we have been married for a year. Right around the same time, I hope that we will be welcoming a little bouncing baby into the family. I am going to be an Aunt! I just can\u2019t wait, and hopefully this will tide me over for a little bit, or this may just make my baby fever worse!\nHalf way through April, Crystal, Bianca and I are heading up to Edmonton for Bev\u2019s birthday. Danika won\u2019t be able to come, because she will have her hands full with a newborn. I\u2019m really excited for this, because usually Bev has to come down here, but it will be a nice change to go up there and be with her for her birthday.\nBy May, we will probably have Danika\u2019s baby blessing, for which my dad will be the one to do the blessing. It will be a special moment for our family, and something I am looking forward too.\nOne of the other months that I am looking most forward too, will be June. One of my best friends Crystal is getting married! I just can\u2019t wait to help her get ready and see her marry Andrew. They\u2019ve been together more than 5 years, and they make such an awesome couple.\nLater this summer, my friends and I want to plan a camping trip. It has seriously been about 4 years since we have last gone camping (2008?), and so we feel we are long over due for a camping trip with the whole group. We\u2019re going to plan it way in advance, so everyone will have lots of time to book off work and I know I for sure want to avoid going on a long weekend, as it will be harder to get a camping site, and more bans are put in place.\nBefore you know it we head into Fall and Winter. In October, Nick should be writing his ACP exam to hopefully finally become a Paramedic. November will be filled with birthdays, and then the Christmas season begins to gear up again, and we\u2019re back were we started \u2013 with another year gone!\nHere\u2019s to 2013, and that we all have a fantastic year!\nWe had a little New Years party last night at our house, and we had such a fun time. There was lots of food, games and even a surprise guest! Okay, so I guess everyone but me knew that Bev was in town, but it was still a great surprise for me! Thanks to everyone who came and I love I was able to count down the New Year with you.\nPaige & Kris\nChad always trying to photobomb our pictures.Grr\nSurprise Guest - Bev!\nFreddy - the entertainer of the night!",

        "raw_content": "A Few Weeks of Flickr...\nI have been using Flickr for a few weeks now and I must say that I'm really satisfied using it. For the past year or so I've been using Google's photo service, Picasa (both their photo management software and their website to upload my picture to). However, after uploading pictures from my trip to Europe, I had used around 75% of my one gigabyte of storage capacity. One gigabyte?! That really isn't much space I thought to myself. However, when I went to ger more space, there were the following options: 10 GB for one year ($20), 40 GB ($75) and a few more expensive options. While I feel that 10 GB is a reasonable amount for online storage, I did get second thoughts on whether to consider using Flickr.\nI went to Flickr and found that they have one upgrade option, $25 per year for a pro account. Essentially, the pro account is an unlimited upload option, only $5 more than Google's 10 GB per year option. What really set Flickr apart from Picasa for me was the other features. This includes the ability to sort your photos into both sets and collections, thus allowing better organization for your photos. Plus, I feel that there is much more of a community of photographers that exists for Flickr whereas there is very little for Picasa. Overall, I feel that Flickr is just more advanced than Picasa. The interface looks better and there are a greater amount of users.\nSo after all that, here is a link to my Flickr site. Enjoy the photos!\nLabels: Flickr, Picasa, Picasaweb\nLong Awaited Trip Recap (With Photos)\nSo I've almost been back for San Diego for two weeks. I finally have uploaded all my pictures as well. They have been sorted and gone through.\nI decided when I got back that I would try to use a different site for my photos since my Google Picasa account was getting dreadfully close to its limit. Instead, I decided to shell out the $25 for a flickr.com pro account. So far its been really great, as I like the interface and the appearance of my photos on it.\nFeel free to take a look at my photos here:\n2007 Asia Trip Photos\nMake sure you look at the sets called \"Asia Trip Photos\" and \"Asia Food Photos\". Those are the ones that I pulled out that I felt gave the best representation of the trip. If you want to see more pictures in detail you can take a look at the rest of the sets in their entirety.\nOverall, the trip was great. Thailand was fantastic as always. The people are very nice and it was good to see my family again. It was great visiting in December as the weather was very nice and it didn't take a few days to adjust to the heat.\nI can't say enough nice things about Tokyo (and Chiba City for that matter). Japan was a great place. The best way I can describe it, is that a lot of times you see movies or documentaries set or about certain locations, but when you get there they don't come close to living up to the expectations set forth by the movie or documentary. However, I felt Tokyo met every expectation I could have had about it. It felt modern, yet Tokyo retains its heritage in a very elegant manner.\nHong Kong was an interesting place as well. As I have said before, its is a gateway from the Western world into China. One moment you can be standing between skyscrapers, not sure if you are in New York or San Francisco and the next moment where you feel that you are in the middle of any major Chinese city.\nMacau is a unique side trip. If you can't get to Las Vegas, you can get to Macau and have the same gambling experience. Macau retains a lot of it Portuguese architecture, however it doesn't even come remotely close to an experience in Europe. However, it is an experience to see a little bit of Europe submerged in Chinese culture.\nSo once again, it was a fantastic trip. I felt that I did a lot and learned a lot. Thanks for reading and let me know if you have any questions.\nLabels: Bangkok, Hong Kong, japan, macau, thailand, tokyo\nBack in San Diego\nGetting\u3000Ready to Leave Tokyo\nI am all checked in.\u3000The flight boards in about 40 minutes. I will be in the US in around 10 hours.\nIt was a great trip\uff0e\u3000I will post a recap here when I have time.\nMade it to Japan\nI am on my way to Chiba City. It's a liitle cold out so I'm enjoying\nthe heated seats. It is very fall like outside as well.\nAt My Gate (BKK)\nI'm all packed and ready to go. The trip was fun, exciting and\nToday I spent some time at the floating market and crusing the canals\nof Bangkok.\nI arrive in Narita at 7am tomorrow. The plan is to hit up Chiba City\nthen Sakura. I will also attempt to make my flight to LA.\nShould be back to San Diego soon.\nWell Its Been Fun\nGetting ready to Head Home\nThailand was fun but off to Japan!\nCelebrating the King's Birthday\nI currently have a little time right now so I'll provide a trip recap and my thoughts.\nTokyo is an amazing city. If you took away the language barrier and just viewed the city, it would be very difficult to tell Tokyo from any other major, world-class city in the world. Everyone I met was very cordial and the tourist sites were awesome to see. The Meiji Gardens are very serene and peaceful to walk through. They are the perfect separation from city life.\nThe food is stellar as well. I had the chance to go to the Tokyo fish market and get some fresh sushi. There is no sushi better or fresher than the sushi you can get there.\nIn terms of costs, Tokyo is as expensive as any U.S. City. However, if you can make it for a week in NYC, LA or SF you can make it Tokyo. In fact, a day pass on the subways is $8 which is very affordable for the amount I used it. Also, from LA, Tokyo is only a 9 hour flight. It is long but goes quickly. Overall, I can't wait for my next opportunity to go to Tokyo.\nHong Kong is a strange cross section. Mostly new school China, with some old school British mixed in. Hong Kong is an incredibly crowded Chinese city. When you are in Kowloon, good luck walking ten fee without running into someone. Despite this Hong Kong has everything any person could ask for. You can get food that costs $100 per person for dinner to as little as a few dollars for dinner. The food is top notch too. In one minute you can be standing in the lobby of a major bank such as HSBC, and the next minute walking next to a poor Chinese smoking. I haven't been to any large Chinese cities, but I would assume that this is a great gateway to a city such as Shanghai or Beijing.\nEh, it's ok. Yes it is like Vegas. No they don't really have a strip like Vegas, but they have casinos like Vegas (including the Venetian, Wynn and MGM Grand). They were once a colony of the Portuguese so there are about 15 European styled buildings there. Otherwise it is just a small Chinese city.\nThis city has changed so much in the past ten years. It is getting to the point that Bangkok has almost every major conveniences you can find in a Western city. Despite the modernization, the city still maintains its native culture. There are still temples scattered throughout the city and there are still vendors of every sort as far as the eye can see.\nThe trip has been very enjoyable so far and has been a great experience as always.\nLabels: Bangkok, Hong Kong, macau, tokyo\nA Movie With Some Nice Hong Kong Food!\nThey're especially good when they're still moving a little!\nLabels: eww, Food, Hong Kong\nVisiting the Phimai Ruins\nIts like Ankor Wat Junior. Still very amazing.\nSoup, rice, salad, meat, fruit, coffee and kim chee for $5.\nWhat a value.\nAt the Mandarin Oriental\nJealous? No I'm not staying here, I wish!\nIt is quite nice though.\nAt the Venetian\nMacau not Vegas.\nAround Macau\nAround the historic Portugese part of Macau.\nWell tonight is my last night in Hong Kong. I will be leaving to Macau tomorrow. Hong Kong is one of the most interesting cities I have ever seen. The reason for this is the 99 years of British influence. Hong Kong is strikingly modern, while woefully behind the modern Western standards all at the same time. Regardless, Hong Kong is a city I would suggest anyone to visit if they have the opportunity.",

        "title": "Semi-Auto Shot Guns",
        "raw_content": "SemiAuto Shot Guns\nBoth the Remington and the Benelli are very good guns. The advantage to these two brands are, they have lots of accessories available too! I shoot a Beretta Pintail, which is basically the same action as the Benelli 90. It is very rugged and I've given it hard use here.\nThe main difference between the Benelli Super 90 and the Remington is that the Benelli is recoil operated and the Remington is gas operated. This is a big difference, too. The Benelli will kick noticeably harder--all of the recoil goes straight to you shoulder. The gun is light meaning it is easy to carry, but there is less weight to \"soak up\" the recoil too. The Remington's gas operation takes the edge off the recoil.\nI don't notice the recoil when I'm hunting since I shoot few shots and I tend to be wearing heavy clothing, but when I target shoot wearing only a t-shirt I have to shoot special reduced loads or it kills me after one box! Either gun will work just as well in the field. It really comes down to which one you like the \"fit\" of. Since you are already used to the 870, the Remington auto might have less adjusting for you. If you didn't like the 870's handling, then this wouldn't be true. You can buy special rifled barrels for either gun, but from what I've heard the rifled choke tubes are almost as good. Remember, you don't have to shoot 2-inch groups with the thing.\nIf you can consistently hit a 7 inch circle, you will kill a deer. I mostly hunt ducks and do it in the nastiest weather you can imagine. My Beretta sometimes gets filled with ice when it's 5 below zero and I'm hunting in a blizzard, but really I think any auto is going to have problems.\nI end up knocking the ice out with a stick and use it as a single shot. In that sense, I'm not sure that using an auto instead of an 870 is an \"upgrade.\" I still sometimes go pheasant hunting with my 870 20ga. that was made in 1972, and it works great! I like the Browning Gold 10ga. with steel T shot. The 10ga can also be used with 3 or 4 shot in one of the heavier non-steel (IE.\nFederal tungsten, bismuth etc.) Shot and is great on large ducks. The gun is a bit on the heavy side but with 10ga. loads the weight greatly reduces felt recoil. If you are hunting from a stationary position the added weight shouldn't be an issue. In 12ga.\nmy first choice is the Beretta Xtrema-2 with KO in a camo pattern. Yes, I do feel that it is worth the cost. When you consider that all the other quality semi-autos are in the $1,000+ range the few hundred differences is worth it. The Beretta is arguably the softest recoiling water fowling shotgun available. My second choice is the Benelli S.\nB.E. 2. In camo pattern. In contrast to the Beretta, (gas operated) it is a inertia (aka recoil) operated shotgun. There are several features to reduce felt recoil but in general it is a harder hitting (the shooter)gun than the Beretta.\nHowever, the action is one of the most reliable and works very well in all waterfowl hunting conditions that may sideline the gas operated guns. For the money the Mossberg is a reasonable option and I would not be afraid to go that route if you would rather not spend the money on one of the three listed above. My guess is however that you will soon want a gun in the category of one of the top three semi-autos listed.\nSo. my suggestion is that if you can afford to make the purchase of the Benelli, Browning, or Beretta now, do so and you'll be set for a long time. Mossberg's reputation has improved greatly over the years and is good quality overall. Personally however, I much prefer the Beretta X2KO.\nVictor Epand is an expert consultant for http://www.CombatCloth.info/.

        "raw_content": "Student Saturday - Hatchet - Gary Paulsen\nStudent Saturday is a day I post reviews written by other students. The review that follows is written byPlacido\nThirteen year old Brian Robinson is on a plane going to see his father. There are only two people in the plane, him and the pilot. While flying the pilot has a heart attack. The plane starts to go down. The plane falls in a lake. Brian gets out scared and hardly believing that he was alive. Brian has to manage to survive in the wilderness by himself. Brian is in the wild for quite a while. He manages to survive by hunting with things or weapons that he had to make. He looks for food and makes his own shelter. One day he goes into the plane and gets some supplies. Things that Brian ate were fish, berries and things like that. That\u2019s when he remembered that the fish that he was eating were eating the pilot in the lake. A couple of weeks later he was rescued and taken back home. I thought this book was really good. This book reminded me of when I was seven and got lost in my sister\u2019s back yard. I too made my own little survival on my own, even though it was in her back yard. I would recommend this book to anyone who is looking forward to reading a good book. I think this is a great book.\nLabels: Action/Adventure, Middle Grade",

        "raw_content": "When I see a baby with a mohawk or toddler wearing a Mot\u00f6rhead onesie, I bristle. That baby isn\u2019t punk or into metal - yet. I imagine that the kid\u2019s father is proud that he liked Green Day many years before Dookie was released and he wants to express this through his child\u2019s haircut. I can relate because I want people to know how cool I am, too.\nBut I can\u2019t help but roll my eyes when I see these kids being branded with a band logo, endorsing music that they would probably shut off if given the chance to listen to the Wiggles instead. It irritates me because it hits an old wound inside of me that I am ashamed of: I used to be a huge poser to impress guys I had the hots for. I don\u2019t even know if it worked. Furthermore, it wasn\u2019t even necessary - I liked a lot of pretty cool music and movies on my own without faking it. I probably would have been more attractive to these guys (all musicians and/or artist types) had I stood confident with my own tastes, but the concept of honesty didn\u2019t enter my mind when the mix of hormones and a guy, probably in some band, was my obsession.\nHere\u2019s a short list of some the bands and movies I pretend to like to impress a boy:\nI walked into 7th grade with a confidence that didn\u2019t exist in previous school years. I\u2019d just spent a half of my summer with my cousin and her friends on Long Island, where I believed I became cool: I had my first real kiss, nursed a few beers at parties, and went to my first concert: Morrissey, the Kill Uncle Tour in 1992 at Jones Beach. I mean, enough said right there. I also liked the Pixies and Ned\u2019s Atomic Dustbin. I was out-cooling these other 7th graders and they wouldn\u2019t even know it for many years because they were still all listening to Boyz II Men.\n\u0093 I can relate because I want people to know how cool I am, too. \u0094\nIan was a skater who also played the drums. We became friends because he had an unrequited crush on a girl in my friend circle, and I would basically use any excuse to talk to him because he was so damn attractive. His dirty blond hair was styled in a shaggy bowl cut, and he wore oversized jeans with St\u00fcssy t-shirts. Ian was mostly into heavy metal and he worshipped Metallica. He also liked music he referred to as \u201cskater music\u201d: Beastie Boys and Dinosaur Jr to name a couple bands. The previous summer, the self-titled Metallica album was released and it was fairly commercial and I liked it also. Ian started inviting me over after school and on the weekends to listen to metal albums I basically loathed but pretended to be into because this allowed me to spend hours in his bedroom.\nIan played the album \u201cBlind\u201d by Corrosion of Conformity on repeat. He also played it at top volume and from what I remember it was a very long, thrashing, heavy metal record. Every single song had piercing, unrelenting guitar chords and the music was a horror show to my ears. Not once did I ask him to turn it down. Not once did I ask him to put on something else instead. Ian loved Corrosion of Conformity and he would blast it nearly every time I came over while sitting behind his drum kit, trying very poorly to learn how to play the songs himself.\nI did what any normal girl would do in this situation, hoping to keep a false connection strong: I asked him to make me a mix tape of Corrosion of Conformity songs. I played them in my bedroom, and on my walkman, hoping I\u2019d start to appreciate them. When that didn\u2019t work, I upped the ante. With \u201cBlind\u201d on as our soundtrack, I sat in Ian\u2019s bathroom one Friday night, allowed him to pile the top half of my long brown hair on the crown of my head in a bun, and shave all of the remaining hair underneath off, Anthony Keidis style. I wish I was joking, but I\u2019m not!\n\u0093From what I remember it was a very long, thrashing, heavy metal record. Every single song had piercing, unrelenting guitar chords and the music was a horror show to my ears. Not once did I ask him to turn it down. \u0094\nA few years later while thinking for myself, the truth is:\nI never really softened to this band, and after I started going to catholic school in 9th grade Ian and I stopped hanging out. It took until almost 10th grade for my hair to grow out, and in 11th grade Corrosion of Conformity had a single called \u201cClean My Wounds.\u201d Oddly enough, I like that song to this day. It was a commercial hit, so I guess they sold out, whatever that means.\nBrian was a guitar player I initially met on LiveJournal. In 2001 he wore the original hipster uniform years before that word came back into the lexicon: faded ironic t-shirts, brown dickies, Buddy Holly style glasses. He also had a radio show on Princeton University\u2019s WPRB and he worked behind the counter at the Princeton Record Exchange, which is like the East Coast version of the New York Yankees when it comes to record stores. Brian and I are friends to this day and I don\u2019t want to say anything disparaging about him, but man, he was a total snob when it came to not only bands, but films, recording equipment/gear or whatever that stuff is called, as well as where one should order their take out, what thrift store someone shopped in, and what was aesthetically pleasing to him when it came to girls he found attractive. Brian liked the cookie cutter pin up style of girl but if you were a chick with dark hair and bangs cut into a short bob, you\u2019d do. Picture Rose McGowan in The Doom Generation:\nI looked like the exact opposite of Rose McGowan in any movie, so what I thought I lacked in looks I overcompensated with my own musical snobbery.\nOne day on the phone Brian mentioned he was playing an acoustic set at an open mic night at some coffee shop. He told me he was going to play \u201cLove Will Tear Us Apart.\u201d Yes it will, won\u2019t it, my sweet? I thought but aloud I said, \u201cWhat\u2019s that?\u201d\nBrian guffawed, \u201cUm hello you don\u2019t know Joy Division?\u201d I\u2019d never actually heard anything by Joy Division that I could recall. I tried to play off my blunder and act like I hadn\u2019t heard him correctly. I immediately started to download everything I could by them. I began playing \u201cLove Will Tear Us Apart\u201d on repeat in my bedroom. My roommates asked me what band I had on the first time they heard that song in my car, and my response was, \u201cUm hello\u2026. Joy Division??\u201d I even drove over an hour to Philadelphia when 24 Hour Party People came out, a movie about the record label Joy Division was signed to in the late 70\u2019s/early 80\u2019s. During the scene where the singer of Joy Division, Ian Curtis, hung himself, I felt like I should be crying or something but \u2026. nope.\nI have claimed to love Joy Division for years but the truth is, I don\u2019t. I adore \u201cLove Will Tear Us Apart,\u201d it\u2019s one of my favorite songs to this day, but the band as a whole just doesn\u2019t do it for me. I do love Joy Division\u2019s story: they became a band after a couple of the members saw a Sex Pistols show and Joy Division started an entire genre of music in the post punk scene that I worship\u2026 but Joy Division, not so much. However, when the band reformed after Ian Curtis died and they became New Order? I fucking LOVE New Order.\nLars Von Trier films\nDuring the summer of 2007, I developed a friendship with multiple New York Times Bestselling author Neil Strauss. I\u2019d been a fan of his writing for a few years because he wrote the greatest rock n\u2019 roll book ever, The Dirt, which is about M\u00f6tley Cr\u00fce. After reading another bestselling book of his about pick up artists in 2005, The Game (which is also fascinating, and holds a spot close to my heart because it\u2019s nonfiction and Courtney Love has a prominent role throughout the book) I emailed him wanting to see if he would interview me about an upcoming book project he mentioned in The Game. My actions aren\u2019t as delusional as they sound, because he specifically listed his email address in The Game for that very reason. I was sure since a few years had passed since The Game had been published I\u2019d never hear from him, but sure enough, he emailed me back. We exchanged a few notes and realized quickly we liked a lot of the same music: Leonard Cohen, The Zombies, and some other psychedelic rock bands from the 60\u2019s. We started talking on the phone and exchanging texts, comparing our mutual taste in music and films.\nAs an egomaniac, what impressed me so much about Neil was how impressed he was with me. I don\u2019t know what kind of people he was used to hanging out with in L.A. but I assumed that since he wrote books about Jenna Jameson and Marilyn Manson he was used to being around cool celebs that had unique taste, but he just couldn\u2019t get enough of how awesome I was. Every time I mentioned something I was into, we marveled about how we both liked it. You like the movie Wings Of Desire? So do I! You used to hang out at 9C in the East Village when you lived in New York? Me too!\nThen he mentioned, over a text, Lars Von Trier. I can\u2019t recall the exact context, but he was comparing something to a film by Lars Von Trier and I didn\u2019t know who he was. Naturally, I did a quick Google search and saw he is a Danish filmmaker who directed the movie Dogville with Nicole Kidman. I remembered seeing the DVD cover in a Blockbuster once so I responded with \u201cI love the movie Dogville.\u201d Neil hadn\u2019t seen that one, and he was blissfully unaware that I hadn\u2019t either. I didn\u2019t want to spoil the momentum we\u2019d been building. He responded by saying something about his favorite movie by Lars, Breaking The Waves with Emily Watson. A second Google search taught me that in this movie Emily Watson becomes a prostitute to somehow save her sick husband so I responded with something like, \u201cYeah that movie is fucked up.\u201d I\u2019m pretty sure Neil agreed.\n\u0093As an egomaniac, what impressed me so much about Neil was how impressed he was with me.\u0094\nIn 2011 when Melancholia came out, I couldn\u2019t wait to see it. I was, after all, a huge Lars Von Trier fan, and it was about time I actually saw one of his movies. Melancholia is 2 hours and 15 minutes of absolute torture about a woman named Justine, played by Kirsten Dunst, who is suffering from suicidal depression about having to marry Alexander Skarsg\u00e5rd, the poor thing! Her wedding is overshadowed quite literally by a large planet looming toward the Earth on a direct path to smash right into it. Justine spends many hours grimacing and forcing smiles during the wedding, and I\u2019ll give it to Lars here\u2014aesthetically this film is gorgeous\u2014it\u2019s visually mind blowing. The acting is also pretty great. Dunst is incredible to watch especially since most of her emotions are expressed nonverbally. But watching the slow, drawn out, painful movie, scene after scene, was agony. I was becoming suicidal in the theater, totally empathetic with Justine. She becomes a tad excited when she realizes that the Earth is about to be eviscerated the morning after her wedding, and I couldn\u2019t get out of the theatre fast enough during the collision scene at the finale. I vaguely remember telling people afterwards that\u2019d I\u2019d loved it.\nI ended up seeing Nymphomaniac, his next movie, in 2014. According to Wikipedia, this film is about \u201ca woman\u2019s sexual awakening.\u201d That\u2019s not really what it\u2019s about. This movie\u2019s really about what men seem to think female sexuality is- we just burst into spur-of-the-moment orgasm, isn\u2019t that hot? You don\u2019t even have to touch us! Also, women are to blame if a man cheats. And, in the hope of feeling something, anything, women beg men to fill \u201call their holes.\u201d Super believable!\nI absolutely hate Lars Von Trier films.\nJim Jarmusch films\nJared* (name changed to protect the innocent, which in this case is me, because I don\u2019t want this dickhead having any reason to contact me in present day. I\u2019m certain he reads The Scold) was another drummer/skateboarder, and frankly he isn\u2019t too different from the other two musicians I have written about in this essay, but I was totally unaware of that at the time. I was always under the impression all of my various crushes were distinct and unique from each other, but as I am typing this out they were all the same guy, it was just a different year. Jared was my obsession around 2003 and we bonded over music and movies. I could write an entire list of bands I pretended to like in order to inch closer into his good graces but these bands are so uninteresting and boring to me I couldn\u2019t write even a few sentences about them, not even if I was being paid to write this, which I\u2019m not [Eds note: sorry, Lauren!] (Hot Water Music, Lifetime- I doubt you\u2019ve heard of any of these bad boys and you\u2019re missing nothing).\nJared had been waiting months for Jim Jarmusch\u2019s movie Cigarettes and Coffee to come out, and since I was also pretending to be a MEGA fan of Jim Jarmusch I also talked about how I couldn\u2019t wait for the film to be released. I would look up the movie on IMDB and scan the \u201cDid You Know?\u201d section and dazzle Jared with \u201cmy\u201d factoids about the film: did you know most of the script was improvised? Did you know it was filmed over a span of 17 years? The truth was I had never seen anything by Jim Jarmusch. Brian, from the Joy Division paragraphs, loved his movie Stranger Than Paradise, so I used that as my Jarmusch \u201cin\u201d with Jared and I pretended to love Stranger Than Paradise too. Simple, right?\n\u0093I was always under the impression all of my various crushes were distinct and unique from each other, but as I am typing this out they were all the same guy, it was just a different year. \u0094\nWhen Cigarettes and Coffee finally premiered I saw it at the Angelika and was uninterested about ten minutes into it, but I couldn\u2019t even admit that to myself because Jim Jarmusch, from what I\u2019d read, was a brilliant visionary of a filmmaker and I was supposed to like him, I mean, love him. Two years later, long after Jared and I stopped speaking to one another, I dragged my mom to a screening of Broken Flowers, another Jarmusch flick, and I hated that one also. Not because I didn\u2019t get it or anything, I have no issue admitting if I don\u2019t understand something (not that you should believe that, this entire essay is about all the bullshit I spewed in my youth) but I was just bored to pieces by the expository dialogue, the hand-holding for the audience with the overt symbolism, the fact that it felt like the characters had zero chemistry! And when this other guy I crushed on named Adam (guitar player in a shitty noise band) told me he didn\u2019t like Broken Flowers, I mocked him.\nLast week after having dinner with my friend, Kyle, he suggested we go see a movie after we ate. Paterson was playing a few blocks away and I mistakenly thought this was a Richard Linklater movie so we ended up getting tickets for it. As the credits began to roll and Directed by Jim Jarmusch appeared on the screen, my heart sank. It took me suggesting to Kyle three times during the movie that we should leave, and about 45 minutes into the film he agreed, and we left. Thankfully we got our money back too.\nIn 2009 Jim Jarmusch appeared in an episode of Bored to Death, playing himself, and I thought he was sexy, so good for Jim! His name was pronounced by Jason Schwartzman on the show as Jim \u201cJar-mush\u201d which is different than how I always said it, \u201cJar-moosh.\u201d During the episode someone says, \u201cHe\u2019s my favorite director of all time, his films are like poems that come to life,\u201d and I liked that dialogue so much it made me think when I watched it Do I really like Jim Jarmusch and I just don\u2019t know it? But the answer is no. Jim Jarmusch\u2019s movies bore me.\nI can finally admit it.\nThe Boys: Where Are They Now?\nIan is married with three kids. We\u2019re friends on Facebook and I have no idea if he still plays drums or is into Metallica.\nBrian owns more guitars than I can count on both hands and he now lives in Los Angeles and works at a huge record store there. He has clerked at a record store for over 15 years now and from what I remember, he totally choked on his \u201cLove Will Tear Us Apart\u201d cover that night.\nNeil is now married and has a son and he is still a best-selling author living in Los Angeles. We sometimes still email each other and his assistant is kind enough to let me know when the emails come from her or Neil himself.\nJared*: Who knows? Who cares?l\nMain image from Instagram account dartness_.\nLauren Grabowski is a nonfiction writer living in Montclair, New Jersey. Her essays have appeared in Hobart Pulp and Talking Writing.

You could say I was born with a silver spoon in my mouth. I was supposed to follow in my father\u2019s footsteps and move into politics. My whole childhood was spent being groomed for this role, but that wasn\u2019t what I wanted. I had other plans.\nTo my family\u2019s disgust, I\u2019m inked, I\u2019m pierced and I own and run a tattoo parlour, in the hip suburb of Newtown. I fit in here. I can be the man I was destined to be, the man my family are ashamed of. The son they regret having.\nI wouldn\u2019t be where I am today if it wasn\u2019t for my saviour, Candice. My pink-haired angel. We grew up in the same circle, but like me, she\u2019s an outcast. She refused to conform to society\u2019s ways. She\u2019s the only one who stuck by me and not only encouraged, but supported my dream.\nI love her. No, correction\u2014I\u2019m in love with her. I have been for as long as I can remember. She has no idea how I feel. It\u2019s a battle I struggle with daily. I\u2019ve kept my secret all these years because I couldn\u2019t risk losing her. That\u2019s a chance I\u2019m not prepared to take, because she\u2019s my best friend; my only real family.\nI\u2019ve spent the last few years moving from one hot chick to the next, trying to mask these feeling I have. But it doesn\u2019t help\u2014I can\u2019t get her out of my head. She still owns my damn heart.\nHow do you get over the girl you know you can never have?

Her fourth book Against All Odds, is a stand alone book, as well, but part of the Destiny Series. Due to be released on the 27th May, 2015.

        "raw_content": "Ooh. There were so many little monkeys in the zoo this weekend! And the one was a real genius... I wouldn't be surprised if he manages to break out someday soon. It was in an open area, one of the old brick enclosures. He grabbed this really long stick and kept leaning it against the wall and climbing up it, reaching towards the top. Every time he realized it wasn't high enough, he climbed down again and propped it up higher.\nIt was hilarious to watch, it was just a shame we couldn't give him a longer stick.\nOne of the other monkeys was watching for a while and once it got what he was trying, it grabbed its own pole.\n:D I wonder whether they'd make it out if they worked together.\n-- from a Skype chat with my daughter, a beginning university student in translation studies\nDoug McCarthy's recent blog post about the Future of Translation discussion at memoQfest 2011 offered a good perspective worth considering. In particular, I think it is good that he has highlighted once again the problems created in generating translation statistics and carried forward the discussion of what is a fair and appropriate basis for the pricing of translation work. Standardizing these factors or at least approaching them in a more educated, understandable manner, is as important to the future of translators as anything that will happen with technology.\nAnother point that was raised in the panel discussion in Budapest is that the most important elements of the future in translation are the same as its present and past: the people and their relationships. A vision of the future driven purely by technology is a peek through the gates of Hell. So many of the problems we experience in our society, our professions and our personal lives have their roots in a world where too often in crunching the numbers, we crunch our spirits and those of others as well, and the failed crop is called \"progress\" by those disconnected from their own humanity.\nWhile I support many of the goals of the No Peanuts movement (linked in my blog roll to the left), I do strongly reject what I often perceive to be the confrontational tone and bad attitude toward agency partners. Now anyone who knows me knows very well that I do not shy from confrontation, but the conflict must make a certain amount of sense for me to engage in it. If someone wants to declare war on the TransPerfects and Lionbridges of the world for their ridiculous practices, abuse of translators' and customers' trust and more, count me in to ship a few boatloads of ammunition. The Quadaffis of the translation markets do not deserve our support. But there are so many others, small and medium-sized agencies, and even a few large ones, who are honest partners working diligently in the interests of both freelance contributors and translation consumers (private individuals or organizations of all sizes), and these we should embrace and support. In our relationships with peers and clients, cooperation and respect are the best modus operandi, and in many cases, it's the only way we'll make it over the walls that keep us from where we want to be.\nLabels: monkeys, reflections\n\"But there are so many others, small and medium-sized agencies, and even a few large ones, who are honest partners working diligently in the interests of both freelance contributors and translation consumers (private individuals or organizations of all sizes), and these we should embrace and support.\"\nAmen. That is exactly how I feel about this issue. Except that I don't know a single \"good\" big agency.\nMaybe there is one out there, but in my experience. \"big is bad\".",

I have had a job since I was eleven. Having a career meant I was independent, it gave me a purpose. Ruby changed all of that.\nHaving the opportunity to spend the last 11 1/2 months at home with Ruby has truly been one of the biggest blessings of my life. Thank you to my incredible husband for making this possible in more ways than one. I am forever grateful. I got to witness every one of her firsts, be there for her the second she needed me, and play with her for countless hours a day. All while making memories I will never forget. She truly is the best.\nBut it's time. I am ready to go back to work. I have goals, business plans and BIG dreams. I want to be an example to Ruby, I want to show her what it looks like to be a business woman while most importantly being a great mom. I don't ever want her to think she has to limit herself. She can have it all (and more) if she wants it all. She will forever be my greatest accomplishment, but that doesn't mean I'm done. I have a lot of life to live, and a lot of things left to do. I am just grateful that Phil and Ruby will be by my side for every step.\nToday I start part time (I'm not ready for anything more - yikes) at a bridal boutique right around the corner from our house. If you can't tell by reading this blog, I am obsessed with all things wedding, so being involved in someone's wedding story is a dream come true for me. I will be working mostly evenings and weekends meaning that Phil will get to have his LONG deserved one on one time with Ruby, and that we will only need babysitters for her from time to time. Side Note: Phil is WAY more fun than I am, so she is going to love it.\nAnd to be honest, I am excited to have a reason to do my hair and make up, and put on cute clothes. It's hard to get jazzed about eyeliner when your big outing of the day is to the post office.

And these Senior Research Fellows have been doing research and giving us insights into the research. We have Professor Selwyn Ryan, we have Mr. Lawrence Scott etc., etc. and you have been coming from time to time. So welcome and thank you very, very much for coming out. And this evening we have Professor Dr. Brinsley Samaroo, a name that is well-known in Trinidad and Tobago for history.\nThis lecture tonight will be based on recent historic sites in Trinidad and Tobago, \u201cRecovering Tangible Heritage.\u201d Just to give you an insight into the lecture, a major part of the process of national self-definition is the location, description and exposure to public gaze of physical structures which have shaped the nation\u2019s development and we have all these physical structures all over the place in Trinidad and Tobago. But the significance was missing. Many of us have not been exposed to the significance of these sites and the significance of these artifacts should not be undervalued. They are important reminders of plantation slavery and pointers to the creativity of our ancestors as they sought to reinvent themselves in the New World. In many instances, these artifacts represent the joint actions of peoples of different ancestries as they adapted to changing circumstances of their lives. These physical reminders of the past can be seen in the middens created by the first peoples and in the more substantial structures built by African and Asian labourers. There are also twentieth century structures erected during the First and Second World Wars. Many times, we pass these sites and many of us in Trinidad and Tobago, we discard them. It is a fact that many of us don\u2019t see them as historically significant and it is a good thing we have people like Mr. Samaroo to remind us of our sites that we have in Trinidad and Tobago.\nSo this lecture tonight will examine, only a few we can examine, of the many prehistoric sites in Trinidad. Pre-Colombian locations have been the subject of considerable research and this lecture\u2019s emphasis will include nineteenth century sites such as the Five Islands off Trinidad\u2019s North West peninsula, the African American, Islamic and Baptists settlement at Hondo River in the Valencia forest, the cemetery managed by the slave-seller Louis Bicaisse at Rambert Village, part of the La Mont estate just outside of San Fernando, the temple in the sea at Waterloo Bay and the sugar remnants of Brechin Castle in Caroni. Professor Samaroo is examining these sites for us tonight and see how significant they are.\nFor those of you who don\u2019t know him, Mr. Brinsley Samaroo has been one of our icon historians in Trinidad and Tobago obtaining his Bachelor of Arts and his M.A. in History from Delhi University and his Ph.D. from the University of London. Students from the University of the West Indies (U.W.I.), including myself, have passed under the hand of Brinsley Samaroo and he has published extensively on the history of Trinidad and Tobago with a specialty in working class movements, Indo-Caribbean history and political and institutional development. Between 1987 and 1991 he was a Minister of Government, he served as Head of the History department at the University of the West Indies (U.W.I.) St. Augustine and he has worked on numerous university committees. At present, he is a Senior Research Fellow at the Academy of the University of Trinidad and Tobago (U.T.T.) for Arts, Letters, Culture and Public Affairs.\nA few days ago, I was telling some of my students that whereas the sociologist looks at our way of life and anthropologist looks at our way of life etc., the historian looks at our development over the years. So as Professor Samaroo gives his lecture, think of our development over the years, of how these sites have helped to develop the people of Trinidad and Tobago; our own human development.\nSo I bring to the microphone, Professor Brinsley Samaroo.",

        "raw_content": "You are here: Home / Archive Contents / A Belated, Thank You\nA Belated, Thank You\nWhile attending the recent Nashville Meeting, many of us were continually amazed by statements made by our institutional brethren. The views they expressed and the positions they defended were simply incredible. The meeting served as a shocking demonstration of the true differences that exist between us. For years we have said that these brethren lack respect for Bible authority. It can now be said that such an explanation is a considerable understatement. It is obvious at this point that these brethren not only lack respect for Bible authority, but in many cases there is an obvious lack of basic comprehension of the whole subject of Bible authority. We were even treated to attacks against the text and canon of the Scriptures. Others will, no doubt, have much to say and write about these important matters. But, I have something else in mind.\nDuring the meeting it was not difficult to see the lines of division between the two opposing factions. The rift is deep and wide - and apparently growing. Even a casual observer can detect these clear differences. But, it has not always been so clear.\nIn the early years of this controversy the issues were not so easily defined. The first steps in this digression were subtle and calculated. Our brethren were not so blatant in their statements; not so bold in their attacks; not so obvious in their errors. Many brethren, in fact, most brethren could not see the dangers associated with the course that these innovators were following. Sadly, many were led into sin.\nYet, there were those who could see where this all would lead. They were careful students of the word, and capable in wielding the sword of the Spirit. They could grasp the biblical principles at stake, and they could foresee the errors and their consequences. And so, they spoke, and wrote, and warned - even when doing so brought reproach and persecution and alienation upon themselves. At this point they would be well justified in proclaiming a loud, \"We told you so!\"\nSome of the names of these defenders of the faith are well known. Some of the famous battlefields are well remembered. Far more of the names and places have all but faded from memory. But we are indebted to them all. Without their keen perception of these matters we might all have been swept away by the tide of these compounding errors. There are many in the Lord's church today, even in conservative congregations, that were not present to observe when these battles were being fought. Yet, in a very significant way, our present stand for truth is founded on the work those men did years ago. It is not too late to say, \"Thank you!\"\nGuardian of Truth XXXIII: 2, p. 36",

Well apparently their genius attempts at parodying liberalism have been in vain, because the short-lived show's last episode will air September 16th. Here's another, more recent example of their right-wing hilarity:\nThis video really speaks for itself in showing the HUGE disconnect between the ways of thinking of conservatives and those of liberals/progressives. While, they consider things like medical care and education to be \"lavish benefits\", we (shockingly) tend to regard them as human rights.\nAll I can say is that I'm so glad this stupid show was cancelled after only 15 episodes. I understand that conservatives probably feel alienated by liberal comedy shows like The Daily Show and The Colbert Report, but what I don't think they understand is that there's a couple of inherent problems with trying to come up with a comedy news show for the right: 1) They don't have the benefit of being able to hilariously expose constant hypocrisy and bigotry, and 2) they're hopelessly unfunny. I suppose it was worth a try, righties, but good fucking riddance.\nThe little sexist gem is the video that made me start moderating YouTube comments. You wouldn't believe the number of dumb people submitting comments genuinely agreeing with it and saying how funny it is.\nAlso, I found your blog by checking the top links to the video. But I also found this truly disturbing site: http://www.antimisandry.com/\nSexism is not dead. Keep up the good work.\nThanks for your comment! And I totally believe it, because I masochistically tend to always check out comments on such items, and I'm usually appalled by them.\nAnd I looked at the anti-misandry site with pretty much the same reaction. Backlash is a funny thing.",

Politically, it is a self-governing unincorporated organized territory of the United States, that is styled as a Commonwealth in free association with the United States. Control of the islands was acquired by the United States, from Spain in 1898, when US forces invaded and occupied the islands at the start of the Spanish-American war.\nThe capital and largest city in the islands is San Juan. Other towns and cities in Puerto Rico include Aguadilla, A\ufffdasco, Arecibo, Bayamon, Caguas, Carolina, Fajardo, Guanica, Guayama, Guayanilla, Isabela, Mayag\ufffdez, Ponce and Vieques.\nApproximately 5 million tourists, mostly from the United States of America, visit Puerto Rico each year. About a third of these tourists are cruise ship passengers. The Commonwealth is of course known for its beautiful beaches, but there are also a number of tourist attractions in Puerto Rico. Perhaps the most spectacular of these is Cruceta El Vigia in Ponce, which is a 100 feet (30 meters) tall cross, containing a 10-storey vertical tower and a horizontal \"sky bridge\", and which offers some truly spectacular views of the surrounding area.\nSports teams in Puerto Rico include Atenienses de Manat\u00ed (Manat\u00ed Athenians) (baseball) in Manati, Criollos de Caguas (Caguas Creoles) (baseball) in Caguas, Gigantes de Carolina (Carolina Giants) (baseball) in Carolina, Indios de Mayag\u00fcez (Mayag\u00fcez Indians) (baseball) in Mayag\u00fcez, Leones de Ponce (Ponce Lions) (baseball) in Ponce, Lobos de Arecibo (Arecibo Wolves) (baseball) in Arecibo, and Puerto Rico Islanders (USL-1 soccer) in Bayamon.\nImportant education institutions in Puerto Rico include the Ana G.

Combined with the fact, Cyra added, that they often have kids come by the kitchen in the mornings who are extremely hungry, it became clear that there were students at the school whose families needed food at home.\n\u201cWe thought that we could do something about it, and we\u2019re really still trying to figure out how best to set things up\u201d Cyra said. \u201cBut we were very concerned about the break.\u201d\nSome staff members were anxious to help, and one even brought it up at their church, where donations were collected, including a single gift of $200. That gave Cyra enough to go shopping off-island for bulk items, in order to fill shopping bags for kids to take home over the break, if they needed to. Several students took bags for the break, and Cyra and the staff knew they needed to do more.\nUpon return from the break, the staff have ensured that there are about 20 grocery bags filled with food staples, lunch and dinner items, healthy snacks and juice, available every day in a spot near the counselors\u2019 office. Anyone who needs to can simply take what they need, and Cyra reports that at least a couple of bags are taken every day.\n\u201cWe\u2019re struggling a bit with how to do this so it works best for the kids,\u201d Cyra said. \u201cWe have spoken with Nancy Radford of the Backpack Brigade at Chautauqua to get some ideas and advice, but this is high school. We can\u2019t just put food in their backpacks.\u201d\nShe said that she sent out a survey last week in an effort to inform the effort. It included questions such as:\n\u2022 Are there times when you don\u2019t have enough food at home?\n\u2022 Do you sometimes worry about where your next meal will come from?\n\u2022 If you are provided meals at school, are those the only meals that you eat?\nAt the time of this writing, 61 responses had been received. Regarding the question as to whether school meals were the only meals they ate, 10 percent of the students responding said \u201cyes.\u201d\nInitially it was thought that the pantry might just be something they put together for Fridays, but with the generosity of the initial donations, Cyra said they have enough to make the bags available every day, and as noted, are seeing the food being taken.\nAs Cyra and the staff continue to develop the program, donations \u2014 money is best, but food is also OK \u2014 will be accepted to keep it going. Checks should be made out to Vashon High School and can go to the school\u2019s office.\n\u201cWe just don\u2019t want kids to be stressed out about food at home,\u201d Cyra said.",

But Nasser said there were also other options, with factors such as proximity to markets guiding a decision.Benyan said the project could involve two or three crackers, which are used to break heavy hydrocarbons into petrochemicals. The use of so-called flexi-crackers would enable the firms to break down a range of feeds \u2013 oil, gas or naphtha.\nThe complex would process crude at international prices to make polyethylene, polypropylene, xylene, benzene and other products, Nasser said.The new complex would create an estimated 30,000 jobs directly and indirectly, adding 1.5 percent to Saudi Arabia\u2019s gross domestic product by 2030, the companies said.The venture would help SABIC expand operations in the kingdom and give it more feedstock options, Benyan said.\ndeal of $20 billion\noil-to-chemicals complex\nPrevious articleIsraeli PM Netanyahu quit today in dispute over Sabbath row\nNext articleIran warned Europe to increase missile range if it threatens Tehran\nRelease of Americans imprisoned in North Korea as a goodwill gesture:...\nJustice Praveen Kumar sworn in first chief justice of AP High...",

        "raw_content": "Thousand Memories Original Soundtrack Vol. 1\nThe Thousand Memories Original Soundtrack Vol. 1 is a physical release for music for the mobile game of the same name. Earlier this year, a digital release was published. However, this version includes two additional tracks exclusive to the physical release. Composed by Keisuke Ito of noisycroak and featuring a vocal theme composed by Manami Kiyota, known for her work on Xenoblade, how does this effort turn out?\nThe album opens with \u201cTheme from Thousand Memories,\u201d an orchestral/electronic hybrid that sets the tone for the rest of the soundtrack. It features a strong, beautiful melody and the rock elements in the accompaniment alongside the choir help give it a lot of grandiose. There is also a piano version of this theme, exclusive to the physical release, that accentuates the strong melody and creates a more beautiful rendition with its softer tones.\nMany of the themes on the album feature a mix of orchestra or are orchestra/electronic hybrids. \u201cLord of Returners\u201d is an epic orchestral tune with a very heroic sound and a fantastic melody. \u201cSeed of a Hero (Seed)\u201d is a regal orchestral theme that has a serviceable melody. It\u2019s not one of the highlights, but it is an enjoyable tune while \u201cAn Everyday Peace\u201d gives off a very lighthearted sound that is reminiscent of something Hitoshi Sakimoto might compose. Another highlight is \u201cLegend of Lost Memories,\u201d a mysterious orchestral tune with a militaristic focus. Featuring choir as well as some synth effects in the accompaniment, it really manages to succeed.\nMany of the battle themes on the album really manage to hit it out of the park. \u201cLast Battle\u201d is a very tense orchestral theme with lots of choir and is definitely a great listen. One of the highlights on the album is definitely \u201cNightmare March.\u201d This tune has a very foreboding sound to it and some excellent implementation of choir and strings, in addition to the brass-led melody. \u201cUltimate Battle\u201d is one of the more electronic oriented tunes on the soundtrack. A constant electronic beat serves as the backdrop to this very interesting piece. It features a nice blend of orchestra, operatic vocals, a sense of despair, and a fantastic melody. Another interesting tune is \u201cIn the Name of the Gods, A Carnival of Conflict.\u201d This theme is very dark and is primarily electronic in nature. There are some orchestral elements that come into play at times, but the core focus is on the vocal samples. Lastly, \u201cThe Great Battle,\u201d the other exclusive piece on the physical release, is another orchestral/electronic hybrid with a fantastic melody and some beautiful strings work and a stunning brass melody.\nManami Kiyota\u2019s contribution to the soundtrack is the vocal theme, \u201cEndless Sky.\u201d Sung by Kei Mizusawa with chorus support by Manami Kiyota, there is definitely an angelic quality to the vocals that complement the folksy acoustic driven melody. In many ways, this beautiful ballad, complete with violin solo, is extremely successful and carries with it many qualities one might hear in a large scale RPG production.\nIn the end, the Thousand Memories Original Soundtrack Vol. 1 physical release is well worth the purchase, especially for fans of noisycroak and/or hybridized music styles. The production values are astounding. Keisuke Ito did a wonderful job creating an engaging soundtrack with only minor filler and Manami Kiyota\u2019s contribution is also quite lovely. If possible, the physical album is the preferred release given its extra compositions; however, if you only spring for the digital release, you are still going to be getting a quality soundtrack.\nThousand Memories Original Soundtrack Vol. 1 Don Kotowski\nTags: Keisuke Ito, Manami Kiyota, Noisycroak\nNo Heroes Allowed!

        "raw_content": "Winning is Every Girl's Dream\nBy Lindy Rose, 11 April 2018, 06:40 pm in Lakefront\naristheheiress\nLindy had dragged Damaris out to the lake because it was nice out and how dare they spend it in the dungeons?? They definitely could not for sure, so Lindy grabbed her pastry basket and her best friend and skedaddled out to the lake, where it was nice and warm and other Hogwarts students were in various states of disrobing to enjoy the warm weather as well.\n\"Mari, let me play with your hair?\" Lindy asked, hopeful as she settled her pastry basket and robe on the ground somewhere. \"I wanna braid it into something extra pretty,\" she told her, carefully taking her socks and shoes off and wriggling her toes in the grass. Ah, nature. How lovely.\nDrama seemed to follow Damaris everywhere, which was why she was glad that Lindy had invited her out to sit by the lake and have a picnic. The temperature had noticeably dropped since the summer, but it was still warm enough by UK standards, in her opinion.\n\"Sure,\" she smiled at the Hufflepuff's question. It was one that she'd probably dismiss quickly if anyone else asked it, but she knew Lindy would be careful. And, given how creativity she already knew Lindy to be, she had a feeling it would turn out well.\nShe carefully sat down next to Lindy, keeping an eye out for any bugs that might dare to crawl near their picnic. \"So do you know anything about this Tri-Wizard Tournament thing? What do you think it will be like?\" @Killian Dracel had explained it to her already, of course, but she was curious to know if she was the only one who had been in the dark when the announcement was made on Sorting Night.\nLindy beamed when Damaris agreed to let her play with her hair, shifting so she was standing behind the Slytherin. She brushed her fingers through Damaris' hair gently, humming at Damaris' question.\n\"Not a lot, really,\" Lindy murmured. \"It's supposed to be really scary, though,\" she continued, shuddering a little at the idea. It had certainly not been something she wanted to participate in on her own. \"I'm excited to meet new people, though, even if I don't get to cheer you on during Quidditch this year.\"\nIt had been a bit of a bummer, since Lindy had only just learned that the commentator position was open to everyone. Still, meeting new people? One of Lindy's favorite things, so it was't too terrible a trade off, she supposed.\nReally scary?\nShe almost turned around to face Lindy when she said that the tournament was scary. \"Is it like the Hogwarts Tournament of Champions?\" she asked. She couldn't even imagine how it would have been to participate in those challenges. \"Killian was bitten by a poisonous spider during that tournament--and I heard about an older student who had their knees reversed. Oh, and another girl who was knocked completely unconscious during the challenges. How did Hogwarts get permission for a tournament like that?\"\nThe last sentence had mostly been said to herself, but she was certain that Lindy would know better than her. As far as she knew, she was the first person in her immediate family to have gone to Hogwarts.\n\"I'm excited to meet new people too,\" Damaris nodded. \"But Quidditch being gone is going to be the wo--then again, it probably means that Kirk isn't going to make all of us run as many laps.\"\nAn idea was beginning to form as she sat there, with Lindy working on her hair. \"Lindy, do you think it would work if we had our own game? Like not a game where houses are trying to win the Quidditch Cup?\"",

For me, minor changes include things like basic spelling, grammar, and punctuation. A good example of this is the classic \u201clet\u2019s eat Grandma\u201d versus \u201clet\u2019s eat, Grandma.\u201d Punctuation can make a huge difference, and I\u2019ll pick up on such things for you. \u201cDefinately\u201d will change to \u201cdefinitely\u201d when you receive your work back. Such changes I consider to be minor, and will be made for you automatically. However, so that you are aware of what has been changed, even minor changes will appear for your review in the \u201cEDIT\u201d version of the document which has the \u201ctrack changes\u201d or \u201cshow changes\u201d feature turned on.\nWhere the collaborative part comes in is non-minor changes, such as substantive revision of a sentence or paragraph. This will be left up to you to decide, and you can send the work back to me with questions or comments of your own. Rather than bulldozing through your prose, I\u2019ll highlight the area(s) in question and insert a \u201ccomment\u201d with a question for clarification and/or a detailed suggestion for improvement. Comments will typically focus on appropriate word choices, clarity, and specificity. For example, you will be asked in the form of a comment to clarify sentences that are unclear due to the use of \u201cpassive voice.\u201d Passive: \u201cThe work was proofread.\u201d Active: \u201cI proofread the work.\u201d To say that you or someone else did something (active) rather than saying that something was done (passive) is not only stylistically preferable, but more meaningful and clear: and this is the kind of change I cannot make for you unless I know exactly what you\u2019re talking about. If I am fairly certain of what you\u2019re talking about, I will make such changes for you, but will insert a comment advising against the use of passive voice (of which I am probably guilty in more than one area in this website\u2013we all do it!).\nFor pricing information and how hourly rates are calculated for proofreading services, please click here, or contact me with your inquiry.\nWhat exactly does Words in Minutes proofread?\nPretty well anything, but I have particular interest in helping students from high school to graduate school improve not only their grades, but also their writing. I don\u2019t believe in unilateral editing; it should be a collaborative process by which both of us learn something. That said, I am certainly not in the business of writing students\u2019 essays for them. What you can expect with Words in Minutes is thoughtful, thorough proofreading of the following academic documents:\nWhen you send me a draft in the form of a file named \u201cmyreport.doc,\u201d I will rename this file \u201cmyreport \u2013 DRAFT.doc.\u201d I will copy this and rename the copy \u201cmyreport \u2013 EDIT.\u201d I will open the EDIT version, turn on \u201ctrack changes,\u201d and proofread the document, making minor changes and inserting comments for non-minor changes that I think you should consider. The purpose of the EDIT version is twofold: transparency and learning.

        "raw_content": "Sticky Post By Breezy On September 2, 2018\nA tale of dust, decompression, decentralization and a hurricane.\nThe Tree of Tenere\nWhy am I just now posting about last year\u2019s Burning Man when this year\u2019s Burning Man is currently underway? Many reasons, but the main one is this: I never fully decompressed. \u201cDecompression\u201d is a word used frequently by burners as the span of time or activities necessary post-burn to ease transition back to the \u201creal world\u201d (usually meditative in nature, or hanging out with your Burning Man friends, or attending local burns). I got my open water scuba certification this year, so I have an even deeper appreciation (pun intended) of this word now, and it\u2019s application here is perfect\u2026 but more on decompression later.\nI heard of Burning Man about 10 years ago, and unfortunately I believed the rumors\u2026 that Burning Man was a drug-fueled festival in the desert where people burned effigies like pagans, walked around in the nude, and orgies were not uncommon. I decided to pass. Fast-forward a few years later, and one of my favorite photographers, Trey Ratcliff, posted photos from the festival on his blog, and I was enamored.\nNot only are Trey\u2019s Burning Man photos beautiful \u2013 they are some of the most interesting photos I\u2019d ever seen. This place, this festival, looked like a fantasy world on another planet. Trey goes every year, and always does a open-to-all \u201cphotowalk\u201d which I happily participated in (that\u2019s him in the photo above), and I also got to hang out with him at his amazing camp (Camp Walter) afterwards. It was my 2nd time doing a photowalk with him \u2013 he does them all over the world and they are always open for anyone to join. Check out all his best Burning Man pics here (so much better than mine!) NSFW \ud83d\ude09\nBurning Man is a blank canvas in the form of a temporary city, that requires surviving 8 days off-grid in relentless heat and dust, where some of the most creative people on earth come to express themselves and share their skills for free (building sculptures, \u201cart cars\u201d, themed camps, music, dance, fire spinning, creating amazing costumes, cooking, making tea, giving massages, etc) with likeminded people. Safety, respect and consent are core tenants of the event (and are explained and enforced via the materials you receive with your ticket, community policing, and undercover police presence) \u2013 and every degree of your experience is 100% up to you.\nThere are a lot of misconceptions about Burning Man, and everyone has such a unique experience that I\u2019d be impossible to get the whole idea of it through one or even dozens of first-hand accounts, because it\u2019s very much what YOU make of it. What follows is my account \u2013 but know that it is 100% unique among the 70,000 attendees that year, and yet, a permanent and important part of that collective experience.\n15:00 8/27/17, Black Rock City Entrance\nThe gate had opened at midnight, so there was a 6 hour line when we arrived at the playa entrance (where you turn off the road and on to the dry lakebed to start your journey across it to the camp grid). It moved so slowly that my rideshare buddy and I exited my car, walked around the playa, made some cocktails, took some photos, went to the bathroom and came back to the car without the line moving an inch. Already I was getting a taste of what we were in for the next week, having to use my dust mask outside the car and not having cell reception or internet for the grueling 6 hour wait.\nOnce we made it to the check-in, I was initiated as a virgin burner by ringing a giant bell and making a dust angel, which is exactly what it sounds like. The worst part of this was not the being coated in dust from head to toe \u2014 it was needing to get back in my car like this, instantly making the clean interior of my car filthy. Oh man, this place was going to test my neuroses to their limits! I both loved and hated this.\nI arrived at my camp well after dark, and I was one of the last to arrive, so I got a spot in the far back corner. I pitched my tent right beside my Prius, and put a shade tarp over it with some camping tent poles on one side and the other side anchored to my car. The idea was to keep my car and my tent a little cooler. The shade structure didn\u2019t last the night, because my \u201cwind-proof\u201d tent poles were not, in fact, wind-proof. I was woken up twice throughout the night with the shade structure collapsing on my tent in 20-30mph winds and had to get out with my headlamp and attempt to fix it, and my hands were getting raw from tightening the ropes around the stakes repeatedly. By 8am, I was suffocating in the heat of my tent and had to get out, despite still being exhausted from the rough first night.\nThe evening before I had met a few of my camp mates, but not many. One loaned me a hammer and gave me some food, so we were off to a pretty great start. I didn\u2019t know any of them beforehand save for the brother of a friend, who connected me to the group via facebook. I lucked out, because my camp\u2019s theme was a tea house. Incredible, made from scratch, loose-leaf tea. Hot or iced, with or without coconut cream, agave, or honey. It was run by Mother Wonder, a herbalist and tea connoisseur from Los Angeles. Some of the camp were also from L.A., but there were an equal amount from elsewhere, ranging greatly in age and off-playa interests. Overall, we were a very diverse, chill camp \u2014 which is exactly what I was looking for.\nSome camps are small, some are big \u2013 some have a public space to hang in, others don\u2019t\u2026 some have very little budget, others seem to have a massive budget. Two of my favorites in this category were Hotel California and Camp Walter\u2026\nMost of my time was spent riding around on my bike, reading, people watching, taking in the sights: the sculptures, the camps, the art cars.\nAt night, the playa lights up. There are huge night-club camps like Slut Garden (where I watched an Australian man work a stripper pole in an amazing show of athleticism) to tucked away corners where fire dancers are practicing alone (so you get a private show if you find them) to dazzling LED sculptures like the Tree of T\u00e9n\u00e9r\u00e9 which was everyone\u2019s favorite playa sculpture since its thousands of individual LEDs shaped like leaves changed colors all night long (and if you were lucky you could even catch a symphony playing there).\nBlack Rock City is a gigantic, circular encampment that is constructed on a circular grid and is navigated like a clock. The main tent encampments are in the shape of a crescent or bisected circle around the bottom of the clock. The top of the clock is empty playa, filled sparsely with sculptures, some big, some small. At the outer perimeter of the clock is the \u201ctrash fence\u201d which I suppose serves the purpose of blocking illegal entry to the festival and also catching stray trash from blowing out into the rest of the desert, but in most places it\u2019s no more than a string stretched along sparsely placed flimsy poles. It\u2019s the furthest thing you can cycle or walk to and still be within the grounds of the festival, which is why it\u2019s a running gag to tell virgin burners that Daft Punk or some amazing DJ is \u201cplaying out at the trash fence\u201d\u2026 the burner spends an hour to get out there only to find absolutely nothing there. I actually enjoyed the trash fence and it\u2019s solitude, and all the bizarre sculptures in the deep playa that you\u2019d never come across if you didn\u2019t ride along the fence.\nOne thing people don\u2019t usually know about Burning Man is how much work goes in to staying healthy and feeling good whilst consistently being in 110F heat all day and freezing at night with no relief, with only what water and food and supplies you brought with you. Combined with walking or biking miles around the desert each day. Thankfully I packed more than just hiking food, but the fresh stuff only lasts at most 4 of the 8 days, even with diligent ice replenishment. So my meals the first few days compared with the last few were drastically different. Zucchini pasta? Hell yeah! Dehydrated REI soup? Yeah no.\nOne of my favorite nights on the playa I visited the Thunderdome, a life-size replica of the one from Mad Max, where they actually pit two volunteers against each other in no-holds-barred fights to the death. (Ok, maybe not death, but only because the weapons are covered in foam).\nAs I mentioned before, my camp, Camp Steep, made gourmet tea. Anyone staying in the camp had a few required work shifts. I chose to be a barista, because I like a good challenge. I will never be impatient with a barista ever again in my life. We had around 20 loose ingredients for each tea in mason jars, and had to assemble each tea, some with over 10 ingredients, for each customer. We had to then steep for 5 minutes, and add ice or coconut cream or agave. At the end of my shift I would make a custom tea for myself that I loved, so I\u2019ll share it here:\nCacao Coconut Iced Tea\ncacao nibs, chicory root, peppermint, cloves, cardamom (steep for 5 min), iced, w/ coconut creamer\nIf you want a simpler tea that\u2019s almost as awesome, just steep cacao nibs in boiling water for 5 min. So yum!\nOur camp also had an amazing lounge area, complete with coloring books!\nMid-week I attended a few lectures (yes, there are lectures at BM) about decentralization, another about cryptocurrencies, and another about the Seasteading Institute, and another given by a women who hadn\u2019t eaten solid food in 20 days and was only drinking water. Of all of these talks, the decentralization talk was my favorite. I won\u2019t bore people who just wanted to see photos with an in-depth description of what decentralization is and why you should google it if you aren\u2019t familiar with it, but you should! Burning Man at it\u2019s core is very much the product of a desire to experience decentralization through radical self-reliance, so it was a very fitting topic for the event. Also, the Seasteading Institute talk was super interesting \u2014 it aims to be the first decentralized off-grid no-government community/nation and they are building a floating island of sorts with the blessing of the French Polynesian government in the ocean there. The guy who gave the talk is one of their founders, so that was cool. You can go to their website linked above for some cool videos and a better explanation of the project.\nAt some point I wandered out to \u201cthe temple\u201d which is one of the two primary, ever-evolving but always present sculptures at Burning Man (the other being \u201cthe man\u201d). It\u2019s a pretty moving place since a lot of people go there to pray, meditate, heal, and put memorials for lost loved ones. Even though it was extremely disrespectful, I couldn\u2019t help but love the framed photo of Laura Palmer that I found there. If you\u2019re not a Twin Peaks fan, you won\u2019t get it\u2026 sorry.\nYou get this great guide book when you enter Black Rock City that lists hundreds of events at various camps throughout the week. I was told by many a burner to throw the book out and just wander around and organically stumble upon things \u2014 but I never listen to anyone. I planned to go to many things \u2014 some I actually made it to, most I didn\u2019t. One of the things I wasn\u2019t missing for the world was a PATRICK SWAYZE PARTY. That\u2019s right. I even got to re-enact the scene in Dirty Dancing where Baby runs in to Patrick\u2019s arms and he twirls her around, thanks to a man who was an incredible dancer telling me to trust him and run and jump in to his arms. He caught me, and twirled me, perfectly, and everyone applauded. I felt like I was in the Burning Man rendition of the film. Someone was even filming it\u2026 alas, they never emailed it to me\u2026 so you\u2019ll just have to trust me that this really happened (I was NOT on drugs). The man who twirled me is in the last photo below.\n\u201cThe man\u201d is the name given to the namesake of the festival, who this year was a 42ft tall version of the classic structure, much smaller than previous years, but it was his first time being contained in a giant protective pagoda structure and not on his own.\nDay 6, The Man Burn: I got to the site our camp was watching from about an hour before everyone else because I wanted an un-obstructed spot to set up my tripod to get good photos. I must have picked a pretty great spot, because the guy sitting next to me had been going to Burning Man for something like 20 years, and was one of the official photographers for the festival (I\u2019m pretty sure there are only a few).\nBy the time the burn started hours later, I was in agony. I had to go to the bathroom\u2026 and the nearest port-a-potties without a crazy line were a 20 minute walk + bike ride away, and getting back to the spot I was in was probably not happening. I decided I would wait it out and suffer until at least after the fireworks, and hopefully until the man had burnt away. The tradition is to stay until the fire is mostly out and its just a huge pile of ash and ember.\nAfter the man had burned away and the fire was starting to diminish, I left to ride back to my camp\u2019s port-o-potties and stayed at camp after. After being back for about 20 minutes, the first of my camp mates returned and they were crying. At first I thought they were just having an emotional moment because the festival was almost over. Then the next returned, and they were super upset too. What the hell? I finally asked, and they said \u201cyou don\u2019t know what happened? where were you?\u201d when I told them about my call of nature, they proceeded to tell me a man had run into the fire. Firefighters and volunteers tried to stop him, but he made it far enough in that they couldn\u2019t get him right away without endangering themselves. By the time they pulled him out, he\u2019d been in the flames for a few minutes. We found out the following day that he passed in the hospital. The festival offered counseling to anyone that was distressed over the incident. I can\u2019t imagine how horrifying it must have been to witness that first-hand, and I\u2019m so thankful I didn\u2019t.\nAfter Burning Man was over, I should have rested, caught up on life and work, meditated, and decompressed. Instead, with a Category 5 hurricane in the Atlantic headed for Florida, I booked a last-minute flight to Orlando to board up my house there and ride out Hurricane Irma, which had just been declared the strongest hurricane on record. The local stores were already sold out of wood, food and water. Gas stations were out of gas. Thankfully, I was able to rent a fully gassed up Jeep. Part of my family had already evacuated to Georgia. The days preceding and following the storm, no businesses were open \u2014 I had no work and it felt oddly similar to being at Burning Man, just cooking pasta and soup (the only two things I could find at the store) and trying to entertain myself. At Burning Man I had to go out in the high winds at night to re-fortify my tent multiple times, and in the hurricane a week later I had to run outside in high winds to bring pieces of my facia (roof) that had broken off inside \u2026 d\u00e9ja vu.\nI returned to L.A. a week after the hurricane with a hellish work schedule ahead of me after being gone for almost 3 weeks to an increasingly toxic living situation that I had to get out of. My house in Florida had over $15k in damage from the hurricane, and I needed to be in Florida to oversee the repairs. In November, I had a two week trip to Scotland and Iceland for a wedding. Right after, I moved back to Florida to fix up my house. When the dust was just starting to settle, and I was starting to feel like I could breathe again, a relationship I\u2019d been in for 4 months abruptly ended, a burst pipe flooded my already hurricane-damaged house, and on a whim I\u2019d just enrolled in college to finish the degree I left off 10 years prior.\nNeedless to now say, I never got to decompress from Burning Man. I\u2019m not sure if this permanently misaligned my chakras or what (I don\u2019t even know what a chakra is). When you don\u2019t decompress properly after a dive, you need to be put in a hyperbaric chamber to essentially mimic the pressure of a dive to return your body to it\u2019s original state. Maybe returning to Burning Man one day will serve as my hyperbaric chamber and put my chakras back in alignment? I couldn\u2019t attend this year due to the event falling on the first week of fall semester classes (and next year I\u2019ll have the same problem) so all of my wonderful memories will just have to tide me over for a few years until I return. To all my fellow burners who are at the event now \u2014 HAPPY BURN! \u2014 and don\u2019t hide from dust storms in your car like I did \u2013 embrace the dust!

He attended Marshall College (now University) but moved to Washington D.C. before graduating. He attended law school at night, earning his degree in 1932. He worked for several federal agencies, including the Bureau of Investigations, the U.S. Treasury, the Justice Department, and the U.S. Maritime Commission.\nChambers enlisted in the Marine Corps Reserve in 1930 as a private and was commissioned as an officer in 1932. Called to active duty in 1940, Chambers took part in some of the bloodiest battles in the Pacific. Chambers was awarded the Medal of Honor for his actions in the Iwo Jima campaign in February 1945. On February 19, Chambers led an assault battalion that landed under heavy enemy fire. During an eight-hour battle, Chambers led his troops in the capture of the high ground. On February 22, he was wounded and removed from combat.\nChambers retired from the Marines as a colonel in 1946. President Harry Truman awarded him the Medal of Honor on November 1, 1950. After leaving the military, Chambers served in a number of federal positions, including staff advisor to the Senate Armed Services Committee. He died at Bethesda Naval Hospital after suffering a stroke, and his remains were interred at Arlington National Cemetery.\nWayne County honored Chambers with a plaque at the courthouse on May 11, 2002.

Under a furious barrage of enemy machinegun and small-arms fire from the commanding cliffs on the right, Col. Chambers (then Lt. Col.) landed immediately after the initial assault waves of his battalion on D-day to find the momentum of the assault threatened by heavy casualties from withering Japanese artillery, mortar rocket, machinegun, and rifle fire. Exposed to relentless hostile fire, he coolly reorganized his battle-weary men, inspiring them to heroic efforts by his own valor and leading them in an attack on the critical, impregnable high ground from which the enemy was pouring an increasing volume of fire directly onto troops ashore as well as amphibious craft in succeeding waves. Constantly in the front lines encouraging his men to push forward against the enemy's savage resistance, Col. Chambers led the 8-hour battle to carry the flanking ridge top and reduce the enemy's fields of aimed fire, thus protecting the vital foothold gained. In constant defiance of hostile fire while reconnoitering the entire regimental combat team zone of action, he maintained contact with adjacent units and forwarded vital information to the regimental commander. His zealous fighting spirit undiminished despite terrific casualties and the loss of most of his key officers, he again reorganized his troops for renewed attack against the enemy's main line of resistance and was directing the fire of the rocket platoon when he fell, critically wounded. Evacuated under heavy Japanese fire, Col. Chambers, by forceful leadership, courage, and fortitude in the face of staggering odds, was directly instrumental in insuring the success of subsequent operations of the 5th Amphibious Corps on Iwo Jima, thereby sustaining and enhancing the finest traditions of the U.S. Naval Service.",

        "raw_content": "The Break Presents: Cuban Doll\nTwenty-five years ago, Queen Latifah landed the biggest hit of her career by singing about unity. And like 1993's \"U.N.I.T.Y.,\" rap newcomer Cuban Doll would like to spread that same sentiment\u2014as she puts it, to \u201cwork harder and work together\u201d\u2014amongst the current crop of female rappers that's flourishing in an abundance that hip-hop has never seen.\n\"Females get so intimidated by other females,\u201d the 740 Project / Capitol Records signee tells XXL. \u201cThey just need to put their insecurities to the side. We\u2019re all in the same business.\u201d\nThanks to a stint in modeling, Cuban Doll had already garnered a vast following in her native city of Dallas long before she began rapping. \u201cI feel like I was all over the place, in and out of school. I was always into stuff,\u201d she says. \u201cI was always in trouble, in a fight or something, and I just overcame that. The music really separated me from being in mess and drama.\u201d\nIn 2016, Cuban Doll dropped her first song, titled \u201cOn Point.\u201d But it was her debut tape Cuban Link that propelled her career. Her flow, reminiscent of a Midwestern artist, has been well-received since the drop of her latest mixtape Aaliyah Keef, inspired by the sounds of her two favorite artists, Chief Keef and the late R&B songstress Aaliyah Haughton. The 2017 tape, Cuban\u2019s most successful to date, includes features from Mozzy, SOB x RBE and OMB Peezy. She\u2019s currently finishing up Cuban Link Pt. 2, which includes her longtime friend Asian Doll, Yhung T.O., Young Lyric, and a notable feature from Gangsta Boo on \u201cW.A.B. [Wack Ass Bitch].\u201d Cuban has also hinted at a track with YBN Nahmir and Asian Doll that has yet to see the light of the day.\nNow residing in L.A., the \u201cBankrupt\u201d rapper is preparing to release the official remix to the track while on a West Coast tour with SOB x RBE. In May, Cuban will hit the Rolling Loud stage for the first time\u2014on her 20th birthday at that\u2014which she calls \"a blessing.\"\nLearn more about Cuban Doll in XXL's The Break.\nI grew up listening to: \u201cChief Keef\u2014he\u2019s my favorite rapper. And I listened to a lot of Aaliyah, Missy Elliott, Lil Kim, Trina and Nicki Minaj, of course. I watch Nicki Minaj the most.\"\nMy style has been compared to: \u201cRight now it\u2019s being compared to a lot of Detroit rappers, like Sada Baby. And Chief Keef, too. Chicago and Detroit artists.\"\nMost people don\u2019t know: \u201cI\u2019ve only been rapping for a year. Before I was rapping I had a following because I used to try to model. It didn\u2019t work out for me, it was moving slow and it wasn\u2019t really paying the bills. Modeling is hard work.\"\nMy standout records or moment to date have been: \u201cMy standout record right now is \u2018Bankrupt.\u2019 It just hit two million on YouTube, and we just dropped it [in January].\"\nMy goal in hip-hop is: \u201cTo be successful, definitely get radio play and commercialize it up.\"\nI\u2019m going to be the next: \u201cI don\u2019t wanna be nobody next.

        "raw_content": "Free vs. Paid: The Battle of the Apps\nThe smart phone revolution is one of the biggest technological breakthroughs since the wide spread adoption of the internet in the 1990\u2019s. The utility of the internet has changed dramatically since mobile phones began connecting to the web as smart phones continue to look more and more like an alternative to PCs rather than an addition. The entry of information technology giants like Apple and Google into the smart phone business reveals the potentiality of the business. The apps industry as an explosive business force is by now an old story, but just to put it in perspective, we\u2019re probably not far from seeing the profit from selling smart phone apps actually eclipses the profits from selling the handsets themselves. The smart phone application business has also changed the way companies get their products and brand name out by allowing a blend of free and paid for apps. Approximately 25% of all Apple apps are downloadable free to the users, including a couple of big name, popular social networking sites like Facebook, Twitter and instant messengers Windows Live and Skype. Google Android Market offers a whopping 57% of the apps for free. Investigative market experts like Distimo have provided a plausible explanation for the large spread between Google and Apple \u2013 only developers in a fraction of the countries where Android is available can distribute paid apps on the platform. However, experts believe the huge gap will close as the Android market matures. The marketing research specialists of the juggernaut app industry have been wailing about the explosive growth of the business. It is estimated that the revenues from the American smart phone paid-for apps market may exceed $ 4 billion by 2013, with those estimations being admittedly modest. The list and categories of applications for these smart phones is virtually endless with Apple having a reported 150,000 total apps available from the App Store. Not surprising, considering the casual and leisure nature of those who use smart phones, games is topping the chart of most downloads, followed by books, entertainment and social networking. At the top of the paid download social networking charts, you\u2019ll find GTX Corp\u2019s GPS Tracking Apps within the top ten consistently. Combined with the limited free version which is sponsored through advertising, the GPS Tracking Apps have been downloaded over 650,000 in 91 countries. As more and more in demand and usable technology continues to be branded and packaged in app form and sold across market platforms, the line that defines popularity between the free and paid for app becomes increasingly blurred. On one end you have a GPS Tracking App for $ 3.99 that can be a sincerely useful tool in locating and tracking your family and friends. On the other hand, the entertainment app segment, what I would closely refer to as the \u201cpeople actually want this? Segment\u201d, is holding steady. This week, it\u2019s being reported that Mike \u201cThe Situation\u201d Sorrentino has an app out that features a \u201cGTL finder\u201d \u2013 a GPS enabled program that locates a gym, a tanning bed, and laundry locations around you \u2013 for $ 4.99. The conclusion? Free apps paved the way for demand and interest from users in the app market, but in the end, whether it\u2019s an app that serves as a handy and easy way to locate friends and family in a moment or an app that allows you to overdose on Jersey Shore-mania, the paid-for apps will forever dominate and the companies that positioned themselves early on and now have numerous apps in the market with a pipeline of more to come will be at the forefront of what many operators are calling the next \u201cGold Rush!\u201d\nhttp://www.worldmarketmedia.com/779/section.aspx/2441/post/free-vs-paid-the-battle-of-the-apps\nWorldMarketMedia.com (The Global Online Investment Community) is a high traffic stock market, news data website providing cutting edge new media products and services to publicly traded companies worldwide.

If you are interested in applying for this character, you can contact the mods at x_moderators @ googlegroups . com and you can find the application form here.\nThis applies to canonically mutant characters from this family only.\nThomas and Lucinda; Melody, Elizabeth, Joelle, Jebediah, Lewis and Meg\nSam Guthrie, Paige Guthrie, Jay Guthrie\nSam, Paige, and Jay come from a large family centered in Cumberland, Kentucky. There are a number of children, at least three of whom are mutants.\nFirst appearance: Mentioned in posts and logs as early as May 2003.\nThomas Guthrie - father, deceased\nHardworking and honest. Thomas Guthrie died in 1996 in a mining accident, while his wife was pregnant with the twins, the youngest of their brood of nine children.\nLucinda Guthrie - mother\nLeft to raise their children alone after her husband's death, Lucinda works hard to provide for them, and expects them to do their share. While the absence of the eldest three has been difficult for her, she understand the need for them to master their powers and find their places in this world. She can be stubborn, much like her children, and is not above plotting behind their backs for their own good.\nPB: Patricia Clarkson\nA small-town boy from Kentucky, Sam Guthrie has become a teacher at Xavier's School for Gifted Youngstersand an X-Man, acting as second in command to Cyclops. But he's never forgotten his roots, retaining strong ties to his family back home. For further information, see his individual page.\nPB: Ryan Kwanten.\nPaige came to the school on the heels of her older brother Sam, intent on becoming an X-Man as soon as she was able. Along the way she found the price of ambition is sometimes too high to pay, and has spent the last two years taking a much lower profile. For further information, see her individual page.\nPB: Kate Bosworth\nJay Guthrie - available for applications\nAfter a kidnapping, the eternally romantic musician Jay Gutrhrie underwent horrific modifications to his body that forever left him changed. Following a time trying to recover in the mansion, he eventually went to Muir Island after an incident that nearly killed his then-lover, Warren Worthington. For further information, see his individual page.\nPB: Trent Ford\nThe other Guthrie siblings are, in order of age:\nElizabeth Guthrie\nJoelle Guthrie\nJebidiah Guthrie\nLewis Guthrie - twin to Meg\nMeg Guthrie - twin to Lewis\nThomas and Lucinda Guthrie were a hard-working Kentucky family; Thomas worked the coal mines while Lucinda spent the majority of her time taking care of their ever-growing family. In 1996, Thomas died in a mining accident, leaving Lucinda as the sole parent for what was soon to be nine children after the birth of the twins, Lewis and Meg.\nAfter his father's death, Sam left school as soon as he was able, taking a job in the coal mines, where his mutant power emerged during a cave-in similar to the one that killed his father. When Sam left Kentucky for Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters, his younger sister Paige took on more responsibilities at home until her mutant power emerged and she joined Sam at the school, shortly followed by their younger brother Jay.\nIn the past few years, Lucinda has suffered from various health problems, including illnesses and a bad fall, which have at times necessitated Sam's return to help with his remaining six siblings, none of whom have exhibited signs of mutation like the oldest three.\nThe Guthries still reside on their family farm in Cumberland County, Kentucky.\nIn September 2012 Sam returned home, along with a few friends, for the twins' birthday and to visit the rest of his family. The visit took a bit of a turn, however, when Sam ran into a local Friends of Humanity group. The confrontation ended with Sam punching the leader and getting himself arrested. In retaliation, the FOH planned to set fire to the jail where Sam was being held as well as the Guthrie homestead. Sam was rescued by an undercover SHIELD agent, and the attack on the Guthrie home was held off for a time by Sam, Lorna Dane, Kurt Sefton, Tabitha Smith, Jubilee, and Lucinda (wielding a shotgun). Thanks to their efforts, only a small portion of the house was damaged.\nRetrieved from \"http://x-journal.net/Wiki/index.php?title=Guthrie_Family&oldid=65082\"",

        "title": "How to Win a Street Fight Against West Virginia This Saturday",
        "raw_content": "How to Win a Street Fight Against West Virginia This Saturday\nThe last two games against West Virginia have involved some pre-game altercations. It was the classic mushroom cloud of bodies, doing more talking than punching.\nBut during the whistles (i.e. the part that matters), West Virginia did more punching than Texas Tech. In fact, Texas Tech is on a four-game losing streak against the Mountaineers, and is 5-2 against Texas Tech all-time.\nI can't quite put my finger on it, but the losses against West Virginia seem to hurt more than others do. Maybe it's just the way we've lost to them.\nIn 2014, at home, the Red Raiders were up 21-10 at halftime and lost at the end of regulation to a 55-yard field goal. In 2015, the Red Raiders gave up 300 yards rushing and lost by five. In 2016, Patrick Mahomes was a Heisman hopeful, but the team was coming off a tough loss in Manhattan, and West Virginia opened up a can in Lubbock.\nAnd last season, Texas Tech was up 35-17 (that's 18 points) in the 3rd quarter, but lost, 46-35. I'm not entirely sure, but I think that's really bad. It was so bad it sent the entire season into a tailspin.\nComing into West Virginia in 2017, Texas Tech was 4-1. By the time they recovered, the Red Raiders were 4-5 in a must-win game against Baylor.\nNow, I know Kliff Kingsbury recently said that he doesn't want to have beef with West Virginia before the game. But he did say he wanted them to, \"settle it on the field,\" which is code for 'beat that behind legally and within the confines of the rules and regulations of the NCAA rulebook.'\nTexas Tech cannot win a straight-up finesse game with West Virginia. Texas Tech can, however, win a dogfight.\nThey need to go Kimbo Slice on the Mountaineers and pop them in the mouth, nose and wherever that heavy right arm of Alan \"The Showman\" Bowman can swing. It needs to be a street fight.\nThat in mind, I combed the internet for the best street fight tips so I can best prepare the Red Raiders for victory.\nWin Texas Tech tickets & get news with the 1340 The Fan app\nThere's nothing worse than a sucker punch; they hurt like hell, and they're hard to recover from. If Texas Tech gets punched in the nose early because they come out flat at 11 a.m., there's no guarantee that they can recover. Texas Tech has to be alert and start fast against this potent West Virginia offense that features a Heisman candidate quarterback and a couple of All-American receivers.\nIt's important to note, sucker punches work both ways. If Texas Tech can take a big lead in the first quarter, the rest of the game plan gets a little easier to manage. Look at it this way: If Texas Tech had a 30-point lead last season instead of an 18-point lead, they would have won!\nTake punches effectively\nAgainst a team as good as West Virginia, it's impossible to not get punched a few times. When you take the inevitable punch (or five), you must absorb it in a way that minimizes the impact and damage.\nYou can't let one mistake turn into 17.\nDon't be afraid to fight dirty\nI believe in playing by the rules...most of the time. In a game where the talent is similar, and I believe it is, you have to find an advantage. In the Houston preview, I said the \"nastier\" team would win. Against Oklahoma State, I talked about Texas Tech already surviving adversity and the Pokes being soft.\nTexas Tech needs to exploit both of those against West Virginia. You have to hit harder. Be tougher. You HAVE to win the game in the trenches. One way to display dominance is to have the better rushing attack. The Air Raid system has long been equated to finesse football. The offensive system bleeds over and makes the defense soft as a byproduct of not being tough on offense. If Texas Tech can shed that stigma by running the ball and having a tough defense, this game could get ugly in a good way.\nI also think Texas Tech can play aggressively by using trick plays and misdirection. The latter is what new OC Kevin Johns brings to the run game, and Kliff Kingsbury has more tricks up his sleeves than David Blane.\nI can't call this game a must-win, but it can give Texas Tech enormous momentum to have a really good season.\nBurn the boats. Leave it on the grass. Give it all you got. Whatever cliche you want to use, Texas Tech needs to do everything in their power to pull this one out. Don't leave anything in the bag.\nUse a Battle Cry\nBattle Cries have been used since the beginning of history, with guttural noises used as intimidation during the earliest annals of history. The Rebel Yell was said to be \"the ugliest sound that any mortal ever heard.\" There are also a host of phrases in American and Texas history, like \"Remember the Alamo\" or \"Don't Tread on Me.\" Throughout history, phrases can propel a force much further than they should go.\n'Raider! Power!' can join the history books this weekend as a legendary battle cry which can propel Texas Tech to victory. The Jones was a dangerous place once upon a time, and I believe it can be again.\nCan it be dangerous, and packed, at 11 a.m. on Saturday morning? We'll find out.\nRaider. Power!\nIt's the biggest knock of the Kingsbury Era: Texas Tech can't finish games.\nIt's no problem for the Red Raiders to get a lead, but it's a huge effort to keep it.\nIt's not just the West Virginia games, either. There are examples against Kansas State, Texas, TCU...I could keep going, but I'd rather not. Texas Tech has also lost that magical feeling of the Leach Era that no game is ever out of hand.\nDown 31 in a bowl game? No problem. That magic returned a bit with Patrick Mahomes, but it flamed out like piss on a candle last season. Does True Freshman QB Alan Bowman bring that never-say-die attitude? Does this defense inspire confidence that they can get that last stop in the 4th quarter that seemed impossible to lock down in 2015?\nIs 2018 really different? Have things actually changed? If so, finish the fight.\nThe Red Raiders are successful in making the game a fight and win a shootout, 45-38, over the 12th-ranked team in the nation. The rushing attack will be the difference, as Texas Tech's offensive line dominates and the running back stable gets close to 200 yards.\nWatch: The greatest Patrick Mahomes impersonation you'll ever see\nHighlights from Texas Tech&apos;s win over Houston\nAlan Bowman leads Texas Tech to 77-0 win over Lamar\nKliff Kingsbury praises Alan Bowman\nKliff Kingsbury on what he expects if Pat Mahomes becomes Super Bowl MVP",

It\u2019s important that this application is accurate, including the health questionnaire, as it becomes part of your cadet record. Fill in the Collection, Use, and Disclosure of Personal Information form. We also have copies of this available when you get here. This one is important because cadets spend time out in the community, and they stand out from the crowd. Media outlets and event participants often take pictures, and we need to know you\u2019re OK with that. Read and sign the Rules of Conduct for Cadets. As a cadet, you need to behave in a manner which reflects the values of the Cadet Movement. We expect all cadets who join 21 RHFC ACC to adhere to our code of conduct. Don\u2019t just sign it. Make sure you understand it. Fill in the Cadet Contact Information form. We try to keep parents and cadets informed about what is happening, and we sometimes need to find you beyond our weekly parade night. Write us a giant check to register. Just kidding! Joining cadets is free! The program is free to join, but it is not free to run. We are funded by the Department of National Defense in partnership with the civilian Army Cadet League of Canada and our local sponsor, the Royal Canadian Legion, Branch 272 in Hespeler. These groups, along with cadet and parental effort at twice-yearly tagging weekends, fundraising campaigns, and other sponsorships mean that there is no cost to families for fees, uniforms, and supplemental instruction (such as band, orienteering, or marksmanship team training). Congratulations, after all that, you\u2019re a member of 21 Army Cadets. Don\u2019t worry, you haven\u2019t joined the military. The Cadet program is a great way to have fun, be challenged, and make friends. You\u2019ll also find out more about Canada and develop new skills that will benefit you throughout your life, no matter what career you choose. Welcome to the 21 Army family!",

        "raw_content": "Product Managers & Business Analysts \u2013 Don\u2019t Forget the Internal Marketing!\nAs a friend of mine in business school said to me 20 years ago, \u201cEveryone is always marketing and selling themselves and their work \u2013 it is just that most people don\u2019t realize it and suffer as a result!\u201d\nOne of the biggest mistakes that we see Product Managers and Business Analysts make is that they forget that they have to own and be responsible for marketing their products internally. This is because you can work hard to deliver a great product for your customers (whether external for the product manager or internal for the Business Analyst), but if you don\u2019t make sure that the people inside your company know about your product and are completely behind it, then it may fail anyway.\nIn the 280 Group\u2019s Optimal Product Process there is a clear phase where you MUST market your products. Many people make the mistake of thinking this just means after launch and only to your customers. However, if you aren\u2019t constantly marketing internally you might not get the support and effort across your company that you will ultimately need.\nFor product managers you have to get a huge number of groups on your side and excited about what you are doing, including sales, marketing, executives, operations, support and others. Since you have no direct authority over them you will have to rely on being able to influence them. As such it is critical that they understand what your product is all about, why it is important to your company and how it will affect them and allow them to succeed.\nFor example, you should market to your salespeople so that they understand why they should sell your product, how they can EASILY make money doing so, what tools you have made available to them to make it easy and what the best approach is. You should also be marketing to your sales executives to ensure the sales compensation plan doesn\u2019t penalize your product \u2013 salespeople take the path of least resistance to products that make them a lot of money while meeting customer needs. If your product isn\u2019t worth their time then it doesn\u2019t matter how good it is.\nFor Business Analysts, it is critical that you inform others in your company about the projects you are working on (and the ones you have already delivered) so that they understand the value that you are delivering. If the end users of the products you are creating don\u2019t understand what the benefits of the product are (saving them time, making their jobs easier, etc.) then your work won\u2019t be appreciated. It is especially critical to make sure that management understands the value you are delivering \u2013 otherwise you may not get continued funding or support for your efforts.\n3 Replies to \u201cProduct Managers & Business Analysts \u2013 Don\u2019t Forget the Internal Marketing!\u201d\nGreat discussion about this on the 280 Group LinkedIn group.\nWould like to understand more the ACPM certification courses offered by your organization.\nI am a Product Manager with a movies portal by HT Media in India and have an educational background in Computer Science thus Product Management suits my interest a lot.\nPlease share more details about the same.\nThis is a great comprehensive reminder that product management must sell the people that sell (and thus determine P&L success) of their products.",

        "raw_content": "Home \ud83c\udf3f Recreational Marijuana News \ud83c\udf3f The 5 countries most likely to legalize cannabis next \ud83c\udf3f\nDavid Ponce, Psychologist at the Colombian Cannabis Community and one of the organizers of the Marijuana March. As Ponce passed through the crowd, onlookers cheered and some even stuffed his pockets full of cannabis to show their appreciation for his advocacy work. Colombia is certainly one of the top 5 countries most likely to legalize cannabis next.\nIn Colombia, the push to legalize cannabis isn\u2019t only a result of the widespread support and grassroots organizing. In 2016, then-president Juan Manuel Santos enacted a legal medical cannabis law as part of an effort to end the country\u2019s over 50-year civil war.\nRural Colombian farmers have long been extorted into helping guerrilla groups\u2014like the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC)\u2014to grow illicit crops like cannabis, which are sold to fund their movement. President Santos hoped that legalizing medical cannabis farms would throw a wrench in these guerrilla groups\u2019 drug trafficking operations. With homicide rates at an all-time low, the plan seems to be working.\nWhile only certain forms of medical cannabis are currently legal in Colombia (i.e. extracts and oils), citizens are also legally allowed to grow up to 20 plants in their own home for personal use.\nHowever, Colombia recently elected a new, conservative president, Iv\u00e1n Duque M\u00e1rquez, which could slow down legalization efforts. Still, with legal medical cannabis in place, and plenty of grassroots support\u2014over 100,000 people recently participated in Medell\u00edn\u2019s annual Marijuana March protest\u2014Colombia is at least on the trajectory to become one of the five countries most likely to legalize cannabis.\nCannabis growing in St. Elizabeth Parish, Jamaica.\nNo other country is more connected to cannabis than Jamaica, making it an obvious choice for one of the countries most likely to legalize cannabis. Anyone who lives or has visited Jamaica will find cannabis access so bountiful that it almost comes as a surprise that it\u2019s still illegal.\nAnd yet, legal cannabis is making progress in Jamaica.\nIn 2015, Jamaica amended its cannabis laws to decriminalize cannabis possession, permit the cultivation of five or less plants, and allow those who practice Rastafarianism to use cannabis for religious purposes. Jamaica also legalized medical cannabis, and in March of this year, the country\u2019s very first medical cannabis dispensary was opened in St. Ann.\nAmong other economic possibilities, Jamaica sees cannabis legalization as a potential source of \u201cwellness tourism.\u201d\nAs more countries begin to relax their cannabis laws, and with the international Caribbean Community (CARICOM) also considering a widespread relaxation of cannabis laws among Caribbean nations, it seems unlikely that cannabis prohibition is destined to remain in Jamaica for much longer.\nPeople celebrating the Global Marijuana March demanding regulation for Marijuana.\nWhile recreational cannabis is illegal in Spain, the country is home to one of the most thriving cannabis communities in Europe. It is currently decriminalized to cultivate and possess cannabis for personal use in Spain. And while selling and importing cannabis is still a punishable offense, buying and consuming it, even in public, is only considered a misdemeanor (similar to a traffic infraction).\nThis legal grey area has lead to the establishment of many cannabis consumption clubs in the country\u2014roughly 500 in all\u2014the first of which dates back to 1991. Some even refer to Spain as the \u201cnew Amsterdam.\u201d With a title like that, it\u2019s no wonder it\u2019s considered one of the next countries most likely to legalize cannabis.\nIn 2001, Portugal implemented one of the most radical drug policies in the world: the decriminalization of all drugs. Seventeen years later, Portugal\u2019s drug policy remains one of the most liberal in the world. The policy has proven successful, with the country experiencing massive drops in HIV infections, heroin use, and drug-induced deaths.\nThe country has long been held up as an example of not only the benefits of liberal drug laws but also a counter-narrative to supporters of the \u201cwar on drugs,\u201d who believe that the only way to decrease drug activity is to crack down harder.\nWhile decriminalization is a lot different than legalization, the country is currently taking baby steps in that direction. This past June, a bill to legalize medical cannabis products received overwhelming parliamentary approval. The country is known for being an early adopter of radical drug policies and has seen the benefits of these policies first hand. What\u2019s stopping Portugal from going all in and becoming one of the next countries most likely to legalize cannabis?\nSan Francisco, California. April 20, 2018- Man with a blunt behind his ear partakes in festivities at the 420 festival at Hippie Hill, Golden Gate Park.\nWhile cannabis remains federally classified as an illegal, Schedule I drug, according to some reports, 95 percent of the U.S. population already lives in a state that grants some form of legal access to cannabis.\nThe country is facing unprecedented health and social crises, namely the opioid overdose epidemic and mass incarceration. Legal cannabis has been cited as a partial solution to both problems. This has lead to a surge in support for cannabis reform, which has become a significant campaign issue in major elections, such as New York\u2019s gubernatorial race. Here, in one of the most populous and economically large states in the country, the Democratic Party has even added cannabis legalization to their platform. And in California, the most populous state, which by far produces the country\u2019s highest GDP (and constitutes the fifth largest economy in the world), recreational cannabis is already legal.\nSo what\u2019s stopping the United States from going all-in for legal cannabis? If the right administration were to take power, not much.\nWhile the Trump administration is full of hardline cannabis prohibitionists, like Attorney General Jeff Sessions, who has slowed federal progress on cannabis reform, that could change rapidly if a new, pro-cannabis administration were to take power in 2020.\nAlready, some of the most likely contenders for the 2020 presidential election have lined up in support of legal cannabis, which has become a powerful campaign promise in recent years. As a result, some have already made up their minds: the next Democrat to get into office will legalize cannabis.",

        "raw_content": "Boeing breaks ground in St. Louis for new Composites Center; 700 new jobs expected\nFacility to support 777X work and future opportunities (From Boeing corporate communications)\nST. LOUIS, Dec. 16, 2014\u2013 Boeing [NYSE: BA] today began construction here of a new 367,000-square-foot facility in which it will build parts for the newest member of its 777 commercial airplanes family, the 777X.\nAbout 700 new jobs will be created for the 777X work. Construction should be complete in 2016, with work on 777X wing and empennage parts starting in 2017. The facility is an expansion of Boeing\u2019s current tooling center at the site and will contain six autoclaves.\n\u201cAs we move forward with construction of our new center, we will significantly enhance our aerospace composite capability in St. Louis, positioning us for today\u2019s opportunities, and tomorrow\u2019s,\u201d said Bob Ciesla, vice president, Boeing Military Aircraft Cross-Enterprise Design/Build. \u201cThis is a tremendous opportunity for Boeing St. Louis and the entire region, which enables us to bridge to the future as a site with both commercial and defense capabilities.\u201d\nBoeing\u2019s St. Louis site, which marked its 75th anniversary this year, is renowned for military aircraft production. More than 12,000 fighter jets have been built there and the site is headquarters for the Boeing Defense, Space & Security business unit. As of Dec.1, the company had about 15,000 employees in Missouri.\n\u201cAssociated Industries of Missouri is a proud supporter of this project that represents the first time the St. Louis manufacturing facility will contribute to a commercial Boeing product,\u201d said Ray McCarty, president of Associated Industries of Missouri, who was on site for the groundbreaking ceremony. \u201cThis is big news, not just for the state\u2019s largest manufacturer, but for the many suppliers across Missouri that will participate in this project,\u201d said McCarty.\nEarlier this year, Boeing selected its Everett, Wash. site as the location for a new composite wing center for the 777X program. In this wing center, Boeing will perform fabrication and assembly of the 777X\u2019s composite wing. Additionally, Boeing will perform final assembly of the 777X in Everett. The Missouri location will manufacture some key component parts for the wing.\nThere will be two 777X models \u2013 the 777-8X, with approximately 350 seats and a range capability of more than 9,300 nautical miles; and the 777-9X, with approximately 400 seats and a range of more than 8,200 nautical miles. The 777X has 300 orders and commitments from six customers worldwide. First delivery is targeted for 2020.\nA unit of The Boeing Company, Boeing Defense, Space & Security is one of the world\u2019s largest defense, space and security businesses specializing in innovative and capabilities-driven customer solutions, and the world\u2019s largest and most versatile manufacturer of military aircraft. Headquartered in St. Louis, Boeing Defense, Space & Security is a $33 billion business with 56,000 employees worldwide.\nPrevious Post Spending bill includes money for advanced manufacturing\nNext Post EPA ozone regulation published in Federal Register",

        "raw_content": "LA Sheriff's Department inmate scandal: New questions about Paul Tanaka's role\nEyewitness News has internal LA County Sheriff's Department email that raises new questions about an inmate scandal.\nEyewitness News has obtained an internal Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department email that raises new questions about former undersheriff Paul Tanaka's role in the scandal surrounding inmate-turned-FBI-informant Anthony Brown.\nTanaka is running to be the next sheriff of L.A. County. But questions continue to swirl about his role in what became known as \"Operation Pandora's Box,\" an alleged scheme that's already led to seven sheriff's deputies being indicted.\nAn email from Deputy Gerard Smith has some very specific instructions for the deputies who were in charge of keeping tabs on the FBI informant, Brown, who was an inmate at Men's Central Jail. It asks the people \"on this email thread to check in with a senior deputy at the start or their shift ... And to confirm that the inmate is alive.\"\nAnthony Brown is a convicted armed robber who became an FBI informant. He's at the center of a federal investigation that's shaken the L.A. County Sheriff's Department to its core.\nBrown was recruited by the FBI while awaiting trial at Men's Central Jail. His mission was to report back to the FBI on possible corruption and abuse within the massive and notoriously troubled facility, which is run by the sheriff's department.\nSeven current and former deputies, sergeants and lieutenants with the L.A. County Sheriff's Department were indicted in December, accused of obstructing justice, including hiding Brown from the FBI once his cover as an informant was blown.\nEyewitness News has obtained a series of internal sheriff's department emails sent to and from members of the specialized team of deputies that moved and allegedly hid Brown. The latest email to surface is from Deputy Gerard Smith, one of those indicted.\nIn it, Smith tells the team that Brown cannot be moved \"without the presence of the following people: US Tanaka, ICIB Cpt. Tom Carey, ICIB LT. Leavins, LT. G. Thompson, Dep. G. Smith or Dep. M. Manzo.\"\nSteve Leavins, Greg Thompson, Gerard Smith and Mickey Manzo have all been indicted. All pleaded not guilty.\nFormer Undersheriff Tanaka and Capt. Carey have not been indicted, nor have they been accused of any crime.\nTanaka declined an Eyewitness News request for an on-camera interview Monday and has refused to speak to Eyewitness News about the Anthony Brown case since the indictments were unsealed in December.\nBut Tanaka did speak about it in an interview with ABC7's David Ono in May. He said then he was \"out of the loop\" on the Anthony Brown operation after a meeting convened by then-sheriff Baca.\n\"So at that point I'm basically out of the loop, because now he's communicating directly to the captain and the lieutenant of the Internal Criminal Investigations Bureau,\" Tanaka said in May.\nI asked now-retired Sheriff Lee Baca about that statement in December: \"Tanaka said he was out of the loop once that phone was found after that meeting. Is that true?\"\n\"Absolutely not,\" Baca said on December 19, 2013. \"Mr. Tanaka was fully in the loop, in fact more in the loop than even me.\"\nMonday, Tanaka did issue a statement to Eyewitness News that refers to what he calls \"direct orders\" by then-sheriff Baca.\n\"While I was involved in some aspects of the implementation of these orders, I was not involved in or had knowledge of other aspects and my name was sometimes used without my knowledge or consent because of my position,\" Tanaka said in the statement. [See the full statement below.]\nTanaka declined to elaborate, and noted that he will likely be subpoenaed as a witness at the upcoming obstruction of justice trial.\nThe U.S. Attorney's Office has made it clear its investigation is ongoing.\nMultiple sources who were directly involved in the Brown operation told Eyewitness News they were told by the indicted Lt. Greg Thompson that if anyone questioned what they were doing with inmate Brown, they should instruct that person to call then-undersheriff Tanaka.\nA similar story comes in sworn deposition testimony from Lieutenant Katherine Voyer. She was working at the downtown jail complex in the summer of 2011 and testified about the orders she received: \"No federal agents were allowed in the facility and if they came with the writ, call Mr. Tanaka's cell phone, personal cell phone.\"\n\"Mr. Tanaka was very hands-on in how he handled this department,\" said Brian Moriguchi, president of the L.A. County Professional Peace Officers Association. \"So he knew pretty much everything that was going on in this department.\"\nMoriguchi's union represents some of those indicted.\n\"A sergeant or a lieutenant would not make that decision on his or her own. That decision has to be authorized or ordered from higher up, and very likely very high up in the organization,\" said Moriguchi.\nThe Gerard Smith email goes on to say about the Brown investigation: \"This is one of the most important investigations involving the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department in its 160-year history.\"\nTanaka is currently one of seven candidates for L.A. County sheriff. The primary election is scheduled for June 3.\nStatement from Paul Tanaka, Monday, Feb. 17, 2014:\n\"When the indictments were first released, I refrained from going into details about my involvement because the investigation is ongoing, and out of respect for the process, I believed these matters should be handled in the courts and not in the press. However, after multiple attacks by opponents, I now feel compelled to make a broader statement. I have been interviewed by the FBI and I have testified before the grand jury regarding my knowledge and involvement in this matter. That being said, with regard to a deputy unlawfully providing a cellphone to inmate Anthony Brown, the Sheriff made two broad directives with regard to his handling and the smuggling of the cellphone. Both of which were direct orders and, to my knowledge, were made in good faith and were not illegal. While I was involved in some aspects of the implementation of these orders, I was not involved in or had knowledge of other aspects and my name was sometimes used without my knowledge or consent because of my position. Because of the ongoing nature of these matters, I have been told that I will be subpoenaed as a witness in the upcoming obstruction trial, and I think it would be inappropriate for me to make further public statements on this matter.\"\nContact the producer of this investigation: Lisa.Bartley@abc.com",

Be detailed in your explanation because it will allow them to tell you just what sort of operation you\u2019re looking at.

It\u2019s also important to be aware of what the alternative treatments are. Even if the surgeon does not get into detail seeing everything else you might take to, you have to choose the intuitive to get it out on your very own.\nWhile moving to get a session is fantastic, in addition you ought to be certain that you meet with your surgeon at the very least once more before operation. This is since you never only wish to learn about the basics of the surgery, but additionally receive any questions you will have regarding the prep and post-surgery recovery. It is also critical to make sure you are familiar with the price of surgery. Don\u2019t go into debt merely to fix a problem you have on your own, particularly since there are other, cheaper choices to try .\nIf it boils down to it, you would like to be certain that both you and your surgeon are now being completely honest with one another. Do not ever withhold any information regarding any one of one\u2019s own conditions. This is not your normal doctor with graphs convenient at all times, you will need to be certain to provide them a thorough background on the things you have experienced. In addition, ensure you are getting a fantastic vibe from the surgeon too.

        "raw_content": "Should I Use Both SEO and Pay Per Click Campaigns?\nSometimes my search engine optimization clients ask me if they should also use Google AdWords. Other times, I initiate the conversation and recommend that they do so.\nBoth SEO and AdWords, also known as pay-per-click listings, will put your company on search results pages. But here\u2019s the distinction between the two:\nSEO will provide natural or organic search results. You do not have to pay Google (or any other search engine for this listing).\nBut pay-per-click listings appear either at the top of a search results page or on the right hand side.\nExample SEO and Pay-Per-Click Listings\nThere are good reasons to use paid listings. First let me explain that unlike regular advertising, you don\u2019t pay for the listing to appear. You only pay for each time someone clicks on your ad.\nYears ago, it was common to pay 5 to 25 cents per click. But now the competition has made the cost much higher. I see averages of $2 to $8 per click. The good thing is that you are able to set your daily limits, so that you don\u2019t spend more than what you budget.\nWhy would you want to use paid search when you can get free listings through SEO? Here are three important reasons:\nSpeed. An AdWords campaign can have you on the front page of Google today. SEO usually takes time. On average, I see results six months after I\u2019ve done my work. And then there\u2019s always more work to do and more waiting time.\nPaid search will work in a highly competitive market where it\u2019s difficult to rank with SEO alone. I find this especially true with national accounts.\nSEO and pay-per-click listings complement one another. When your company appears in both the organic listings and the paid listings, it increases the gravitas of your company. Your authority is underlined.\nI asked AdWords experts Howard Jacobson and Kristie McDonald, both authors of AdWords for Dummies, to add any additional thoughts. Jacobson said, \u201cAn ad increases your presence on the search results page. Think about it \u2014 if you could own every single listing on the page for your best keywords, wouldn\u2019t you want to? How about all the listings except for one? Don\u2019t you want as much real estate on that page as you can possibly get?\nMcDonald added, \u201cOrganic listings are getting smaller and lower down on the page. Have you noticed that for lots of searches, the first organic listing is near the bottom of the screen? Google\u2019s trying to monetize as much real estate on the search results page as they can. And that trend has only increased over the past year. AdWords listings support Google\u2019s business model. While free traffic is awesome, you want to make sure you\u2019re aligning your interests with Google\u2019s long-term interests. Paid traffic can do that.\u201d\nAlthough I know of savvy owners who can manage their AdWords campaigns well, for most owners, I highly recommend hiring a professional to manage their pay-per-click campaign, as a mistake in setup can cost you big time.\nEasy Web Tip 165: Both SEO and pay-per-click campaigns can work together to help you stand out from your competitors on a search-results page.\n\u00ab Tell Me I Don\u2019t Need SEO. Please!\nFollowing Protocol. Do It! \u00bb",

        "raw_content": "The SCUM Manifesto Isn\u2019t All That Crazy\nBack in 1968, Valerie Solanas went to The Factory to shoot Andy Warhol. She did, Andy survived, and a great Yo La Tengo song was born. Afterward, Solanas was diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia, which accounts for her belief that Warhol was trying to steal her work.\nBut prior to this time, Solanas had already published what would become her seminal work, the SCUM Manifesto [PDF link]. She named it after the group she created and was calling to arms in the document, the Society for Cutting Up Men and it didn\u2019t pull any punches. In the Manifesto, she calls for men to be eradicated, literally:\n\u201cThe male is, by his very nature a leech, an emotional parasite, and therefore not ethically entitled to live, as no one has the right to live at someone else\u2019s expense.\u201d\nThe thing is, by the time Solanas arrives at this conclusion she\u2019s made a pretty good case for it, describing in detail all of the failings of the male gender, and advocating not just for their extermination but for any woman who allows men to dominate them, which, Solanas decides, makes up a substantial portion of the female population. She calls for a female hit squad to be formed to carry out what seems to be an early predecessor to Fight Club\u2019s Project Mayhem.\nYet as severe, drastic and radical Solanas\u2019 solutions to the problem of male domination are, they don\u2019t really seem crazy. She began writing the work when she was 24 and she\u2019d already had a shitty life that helped solidify her views on men, it\u2019s also possible that she wrote in during the prodromal phase of her schizophrenia, a period where the bizarre aspects of the mental illness begin, but before the sufferer succumbs to accepting them as reality. This is to say her views are biting and extreme, but they are also lucid.\nThis lucidity demands that the author\u2019s complaints against men be taken seriously, notwithstanding that the author calls for me and my kind at best to be merely subjugated and at worst, well, murdered.This should be required reading for all men; the SCUM Manifesto gives a perspective we won\u2019t find many other places in this patriarchal world.\nPosted in Writing\t60sandy warholfeminismmanifestosmenradical understandingvalerie solanas\n\u2039 PreviousYour Darkest Fears As Webcomix\nNext \u203aTwilight Channels Don\u2019t Be Dumb",

        "raw_content": "Investigative \u2022 News \u2022 NXIVM\nComplete text of prosecutor\u2019s argument against Raniere bail\nKeith Raniere was denied bail. Here is a letter the government filed yesterday giving their reasons why they believed Keith Raniere should be denied bail.\nIt was filed originally in Texas for Raniere\u2019s first appearance but was re-filed yesterday for Magistrate Tiscione\u2019s consideration.\nMEG:MKP/TH 271 Cadman Plaza East\nF. #2017R01840 Brooklyn, New York 11201\nThe Honorable Steven M. Gold\nRe: United States v. Keith Raniere\nDocket No.: 18-M-132\nDear Judge Gold:\nThe defendant Keith Raniere is scheduled to appear in the Northern District of Texas tomorrow at 2:00 p.m. for arraignment. The government respectfully submits this letter in anticipation of the defendant\u2019s expected removal to the Eastern District of New York and in support of the government\u2019s request for a permanent order of detention. As set forth below, the defendant, who was living in Mexico prior to his arrest and has access to vast resources, poses a significant risk of flight. In addition, his long-standing history of systematically exploiting women through coercive practices for his own financial and sexual benefit demonstrates that, if released, he would pose a danger to the community.\nThe defendant is charged by complaint with sex trafficking, sex trafficking\nconspiracy and conspiracy to commit forced labor. As described in detail in the complaint (the facts of which are incorporated by reference into this letter), these charges arise from the defendant\u2019s role as the leader of a secret society called \u201cDOS\u201d or \u201cThe Vow,\u201d in which women were recruited to be slaves under the false pretense of joining a women-only mentorship group.\nDOS is structured as a pyramid with the defendant at the top. To join DOS, slaves were required to provide their masters with \u201ccollateral,\u201d which included highly damaging information about themselves and/or family members, naked photographs and rights to their assets. Once they had joined, slaves learned they had to provide additional collateral, which they did, fearing that otherwise the collateral they had already provided would be used against them. None of the slaves (except for those directly under the defendant) knew that the defendant was involved in the organization when they were recruited.\nDOS slaves understood that if they told anyone about DOS, if they left DOS or if\nthey failed to complete assignments given to them by their masters, their collateral could be released. A number of DOS slaves (including Jane Does 1 and 2, as described in the complaint) were given assignments that implicitly or expressly directed them to have sex with the defendant.\nMoreover, a number of DOS slaves, including Jane Doe 1, performed services other than sex (such as editing the defendant\u2019s articles and transcribing interviews) for the benefit of the defendant, believing that if they did not, their collateral could be released. The masters who gave these assignments received the financial benefit of free labor from their slaves. Many DOS slaves were also groomed for sex with the defendant by\n(1) being ordered to adhere to very restricted diets (the defendant is known to sexually prefer extremely thin women),\n(2) being ordered to remain celibate (the defendant has taught that women should be monogamous but that men are naturally polyamorous), and/or\n(3) being ordered to stop waxing or shaving their pubic hair (the defendant is known to sexually prefer women with a lot of pubic hair). The slaves were told that they were being given these orders to benefit themselves. The DOS masters who directed their slaves to have sex with the defendant received financial benefits in the form of\ncontinued status and participation in DOS, as well as financial opportunities from the defendant.\nDOS slaves were seriously sleep-deprived from participating in \u201creadiness\u201d drills,\nwhich required them to respond to their masters any time day or night. DOS slaves were also branded in their pelvic regions with a cauterizing pen with a symbol that, unbeknownst to them, incorporated the defendant\u2019s initials.\nThe government estimates that the defendant has had more than fifty DOS slaves\nMany DOS slaves were recruited from Nxivm, which is the umbrella organization\nfor a number of self-help workshops created by the defendant and that have been taught at centers across the country and internationally since 1998. The defendant is revered within Nxivm and referred to as the \u201cVanguard.\u201d Every week in August, the Nxivm community gathers for a week to celebrate the defendant\u2019s birthday and pay tribute to him. According to a number of sources, including former high-ranking members of Nxivm, the defendant\u2019s word is final within Nxivm and nothing of import happens within Nxivm without the defendant\u2019s approval.\nNxivm students are also taught that the defendant is the smartest and most ethical man in the world. He frequently cited having earned three degrees from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, but a review of his transcript shows that he graduated with a 2.26 GPA, having failed or barely passed many of the upper-level math and science classes he bragged about taking.\nNxivm maintains features of a pyramid scheme, as courses cost thousands of\ndollars each and participants are encouraged to continue to pay for additional classes and to recruit others to take classes in order to rise within the ranks of Nxivm. Different ranks are marked by different color sashes, and students must reach certain ranks in order to begin receiving salaries or commissions. Members of Nxivm are taught that they can get rich by advancing in Nxivm, but in reality only a small percentage of Nxians make significant income and a much larger percentage find themselves in significant debt to the organization. The defendant had previously been investigated by law enforcement for operating a pyramid scheme called \u201cConsumers\u2019 Buyline, Inc.\u201d As part of a consent order entered into in 1996 by the defendant and the New York State Attorney General\u2019s Office, the defendant was prohibited from operating a multilevel-marketing scheme in New York again.\nB. History of Sexual Assault and Other Abuse of Girls and Women\nThe defendant has a decades\u2019 long history of abusing women and girls.\nAccording to confidential sources, the defendant had repeated sexual encounters with multiple teenage girls in the mid-to-late 1980s and early 1990s. In one instance, the defendant met a fifteen-year-old girl while he was in his 20s and had repeated sexual contact with her. In another instance, the defendant met a twelve-year-old girl whose mother worked for the defendant and began tutoring her. Shortly thereafter, the defendant began having regular sexual intercourse with her, including at his home where he lived with multiple adult sexual partners. One of those partners hired the girl to walk her dog, giving the defendant daily access to the girl. The defendant told one of the DOS slaves he had sex with that he believed the age of consent was too rigid and that it should be lowered to when a child\u2019s parent says the child is capable of consent.\nFurthermore, the defendant directed the abuse of Nxivm members who had\ncommitted so-called \u201cethical breaches.\u201d In one instance, the defendant ordered the long-term confinement of a Nxivm member who was approximately in her early-20s to heal an \u201cethical breach\u201d because she had developed romantic feelings for someone other than him.\n\u2018During her approximately 18-month confinement, with limited exceptions, the woman had extremely limited contact with her family or other members of the community and she received limited medical attention. Her period of confinement was repeatedly extended for other supposed ethical breaches, including, in one instance, because she cut her hair. The woman felt she could not leave because of the repercussions on her family and also because she was illegally in the United States and the defendant and other members of Nxivm had helped her illegally enter.\nThe defendant claimed that her ethical breach was stealing money, but the purported theft (of money that was later returned) happened significantly before the confinement.\nThe defendant has also physically assaulted at least two intimate partners and in\n2012, under the guise of mentorship, he encouraged a woman to run headfirst into a tree and to drink from a puddle. He also co-founded a movement called \u201cSociety of Protectors,\u201d which, in part, relied on humiliating women in order to eradicate weaknesses the defendant taught were common in women. For example, women attending the classes were forced to wear fake cow udders over their breasts while people called them derogatory names. Moreover, at least one DOS master who was directly under the defendant told her slaves that her own master, i.e., the defendant, would put her in a cage to punish her.\nThe defendant has also posed disturbing hypotheticals as part of the Nxivm\ncurriculum, challenging whether incest and rape are actually wrong. He told one DOS slave that incest is not wrong if the \u201cvictim\u201d is sexually aroused by the experience, and he questioned whether gang rape is bad if the person being raped has an orgasm.\nC. Defendant\u2019s Foreign Ties and Access to Cash\nFor most of his life the defendant has lived outside Albany, New York, where\nNxivm is headquartered. Many members of Nxivm live in the same area. Shortly after the government began interviewing witnesses and victims in November 2017, the defendant flew to Mexico. For over a month and a half, since the arrest warrant in this case was issued, the government has actively worked with Mexican immigration officials to locate the defendant.\nFinding the defendant was difficult because the defendant purposely concealed his location, began using end-to-end encrypted email and stopped using his phone. Ultimately, the defendant was found to be staying at a luxury villa near Puerto Vallarta, Mexico with several women. The villa was in a gated community where some villas cost over $10,000 U.S.C. a week to rent. The defendant was uncooperative when immigration authorities arrived and after he was taken into custody, the women chased the car in which the defendant was being transported in their own car at high speed.\nThe defendant pretends to be a renunciate. In reality, however, he has spent his\nlife profiting from his pyramid schemes and has otherwise received financial backing from independently wealthy women. The defendant is currently financially backed by Clare Bronfman, an heiress to the Seagram\u2019s liquor fortune. She has financed the defendant repeatedly over the years including providing him with millions of dollars and paying for private air travel costing up to approximately $65,000 a flight. She has also paid for numerous lawyers to bring suits against Nxivm critics. Bronfman also owns a private island in Fiji, which the defendant has visited, and both Bronfman and the defendant have contacts all around the world.\nThe defendant does not keep any money in his name and has no driver\u2019s license.\nHe makes purchases using a credit card in one of his dead lover\u2019s names. In the past year and a half, the defendant and the mother of his child have accessed hundreds of thousands of dollars from a bank account in the same dead lover\u2019s name, which contains over $8 million dollars.\nD. Past Obstruction\nAccording to multiple confidential sources, in connection with a civil action brought in the District of New Jersey against cult critic Rick Ross and others that was dismissed\nthis year, the defendant directed several members of Nxivm to edit video recordings of Nxivm classes that Nxivm had been ordered to produce in discovery. The edits removed portions of the classes that the defendant thought would be damaging to Nxivm\u2019s case.\nIn addition, since defecting, several DOS victims have received \u201ccease and desist\u201d\nletters from a Mexican attorney. As set forth in the complaint, the defendant was involved in sending those letters.\nUnder the Bail Reform Act, Title 18, United States Code, Sections 3141, et seq.\n(the \u201cAct\u201d), federal courts \u201cshall\u201d order a defendant\u2019s detention pending trial upon a\ndetermination that \u201cno condition or combination of conditions would reasonably assure the appearance of the person as required and the safety of any other person and the community[.]\u201d 18 U.S.C. \u00a7 3142(e). A finding of risk of dangerousness must be supported by clear and convincing evidence and a finding of risk of flight must be supported by a preponderance of the evidence. See United States v. Chimurenga, 760 F.2d 400, 405 (2d Cir. 1985).\nWhether detention is sought on the basis of flight or dangerousness, the Bail\nReform Act lists four factors to be considered in the detention analysis:\n(1) \u201cthe nature and circumstances of the offense charged. . .\u201d;\n(3) \u201cthe history and characteristics of the person, including . . . the person\u2019s character, . . . past conduct, . . . [and] criminal history, and record concerning appearance at court\nproceedings\u201d; and (4) \u201cthe nature and seriousness of the danger to any person or\nthe community that would be posed by the person\u2019s release.\u201d 18 U.S.C. \u00a7 3142(g).\nThe concept of \u201cdangerousness\u201d encompasses not only the effect of a defendant\u2019s\nrelease on the safety of identifiable individuals, such as victims and witnesses, but also \u201c\u2018the danger that the defendant might engage in criminal activity to the detriment of the\ncommunity.\u2019\u201d United States v. Millan, 4 F.3d 1038, 1048 (2d Cir. 1993) (quoting legislative\nhistory). In addition \u2013 and significantly \u2013 when a finding of dangerousness is related to violent conduct, it need not be shown that the defendant personally engaged in violence. United States v. Colombo, 777 F.2d 96, 98 (2d Cir. 1985). Moreover, the Second Circuit has held that \u201cprior acts of domestic violence are relevant to a determination of dangerousness\u201d because a \u201cwillingness to strike loved ones offers probative evidence of tendency to violence and dangerousness towards others.\u201d United States v. Mercedes, 354 F.3d 433, 4337-38 (2d Cir. 2001).\nThe government is entitled to proceed by proffer in detention hearings. United States v. LaFontaine, 210 F.3d 125, 130-31 (2d Cir. 2000).\nThe nature of the charges outlined in the complaint demonstrates that the defendant poses a significant risk of flight and danger to the community. The defendant is\ncharged with sex trafficking and conspiracy to commit forced labor in a scheme involving over fifty female slaves he directed others to recruit on his behalf. He is charged with trafficking these women through coercion and manipulation, tactics that he has used before.\nAfter law enforcement began interviewing witnesses about the defendant\u2019s criminal conduct, he fled to Mexico where he was apprehended only after a month-and-a-half of\nactive searching. The defendant began using encrypted email and stopped using the phone that had been known to law enforcement shortly after the government began interviewing witnesses.\nThe defendant faces a mandatory minimum sentence of 15 years\u2019 imprisonment and an\napproximate Guidelines range of at least 188 to 235 months\u2019 imprisonment on the sex trafficking charge alone. The Second Circuit has held that the possibility of a severe sentence is an important factor in assessing flight risk. See United States v. Jackson, 823 F.2d 4, 7 (2d Cir.1987); United States v. Cisneros, 328 F.3d 610, 618 (10th Cir. 2003) (defendant was a flight risk because her knowledge of the seriousness of the charges against her gave her a strong incentive to abscond); United States v. Townsend, 897 F.2d 989, 995 (9th Cir. 1990) (\u201cFacing the much graver penalties possible under the present indictment, the defendants have an even greater incentive to consider flight.\u201d). The defendant also does not keep assets in his name and, through his connections and followers, has access to millions of dollars and a private island.\nMoreover, the risk of flight and dangerousness is further supported by every one\nof the Bail Reform Act factors. First, the defendant is charged with very serious crimes that involve sex trafficking of vulnerable women through coercion and manipulation, tactics the defendant has mastered over decades.\nSecond, the evidence against the defendant is exceedingly strong. The government has spoken to more than a dozen women who have been victimized by the defendant, as well as many other witnesses. Their statements have been corroborated, including by the defendant\u2019s own emails and electronic communications.\nThird, the defendant\u2019s personal characteristics demonstrate that he is someone who is both a risk of flight and a danger to the community. As described above, he has spent\ndecades pretending to be a renunicate while scamming people out of money and living a secret life of luxury. He has also previously directed others to falsify records to be used in a civil lawsuit and sent \u201ccease and desist\u201d letters to witnesses, actions which evince a willingness to obstruct justice.\nWith respect to the danger he poses (as relevant to both the third and fourth factors of the Bail Reform Act), the allegations in the complaint speak for themselves, and are\nthe culmination of decades of abusing women and girls through manipulation and coercion and, at times, physical violence. The extent of his brazenness is demonstrated by the fact that he identified his adherents as \u201cslaves\u201d and had them branded with his initials. If released, the defendant poses a risk to numerous women, including many DOS slaves who still believe they are under his control. There is a very real concern that the defendant may attempt\u2014either directly or indirectly through his slaves\u2014to intimidate possible witnesses against him into silence.\nFor the reasons set forth above, the government intends to request that the defendant be removed in custody to the Eastern District of New York when he appears for arraignment in the Northern District of Texas tomorrow. In the event that bail proceedings take place before this Court, the government will seek a permanent order of detention. The government submits that the defendant poses a danger to the community and a risk of flight.\nThere is no condition or combination of conditions that will assure the safety of the community, the defendant\u2019s return to court, or his compliance with the Court\u2019s directives. Accordingly, the government requests that the defendant be permanently detained pending trial.\nMoira Kim Penza\nTanya Hajjar\n(718) 254-6454 (Penza)\ncc: Defense Counsel\nCase 1:18-mj-00132-LB Document 8-1 Filed 04/12/18 Page 8 of 8 PageID #: 78\nFBI seeking more victims of sex-slaver Keith Raniere\nNatalie makes report of Raniere hearing",

        "raw_content": "US \u2013 War Dog Wants to Bite, But What and How?\nJanuary 30, 2018 Asif Aziz Opinion Comments Off on US \u2013 War Dog Wants to Bite, But What and How?\nIt could be truly comical, if it were not to be so dangerous for millions of people living all over the world. The Empire, once mighty, ruthless and frightening is now jumping around like a dog infected with rabies; it is salivating, barking loudly, its tale is stiff between its legs.\nIt snaps left and right, and periodically it is even trying to bite a piece of Moon off. But the Moon is far, too far, even for the best armed and the most aggressive country on Earth.\nIran is much closer, and so are North Korea, Syria, Venezuela, Russia, China, Pakistan and other nations that have managed to land themselves on that proverbial shit list of the neo-colonialist World Order, manufactured by the West.\nThe General Manager of what the West likes to define as the \u201cFree World\u201d, is increasingly behaving like a hooligan and racist, insulting African countries which have survived both genocide and the slave trade, and which have been, for centuries, colonized, plundered and enslaved first by various European \u2018enlightened\u2019 states, and later by the coordinated efforts of the Western governments and multi-national corporations.\nHe is also offending and intimidating millions of Latin Americans; people of the Western Hemisphere who have been, for ages, falling under the infamous \u2018Monroe Doctrine\u2019 of U.S. foreign policy. The summary of that Doctrine has been basically this: do as we say and what is in the interests of the West, or we\u2019ll overthrow your governments, murder your leaders or even directly invade your shores. Now \u2018illegal immigrants\u2019 from these countries are most likely going to have to leave the United States. Because they are poor (logically they are, after centuries of oppression and terror from the North), because they are not white, and because they are \u2018uneducated\u2019, or in summary, because they are not \u2018Norwegians\u2019 (the Manager would prefer Norwegian migrants).\nInsulting people and nations is one thing, but bringing the world near a nuclear war is something quite different.\nIncreasingly it appears that the possibility of a new and horrid conflict (or conflicts) is nothing hypothetical. It is an absolutely realistic scenario, a great possibility, considering both the state of mind of the Manager, and even, progressively, the state of mind of the Western public, who seem to be totally out of touch with their position in the world and even with their own history.\nIn the meantime, a gruesome war dog is jumping all over, pointing in different directions, ready to bite, to devour, to bring to an end life itself on our Planet.\nWho will be its first victim?\nIs anyone ready to yield to a brutal force, to surrender out of fear, to accept the morbid, repulsive fate of conquered and broken nations like Afghanistan, Libya or Iraq?\nWould any government be so insane as to allow the West to \u2018liberate\u2019 its people?\nI don\u2019t think so; not anymore. All the examples are just too horrid. It is better to fight a war, to fight for one\u2019s freedom, than to become a colony, a broken, humiliated and usurped land. I saw what they have done to Afghanistan, to Iraq, to the Democratic Republic of Congo. I saw and I wanted to puke from what I witnessed, but instead wrote an 800-page accusation, from all over the world, called \u201cExposing Lies Of The Empire\u201d.\nThe West has already run out of credit. There is no trust in it left. The entire world knows perfectly well what it is like to be colonized and controlled by both Europe and the United States.\nThe dog of war is searching for some weak point, where its fangs can begin tearing flesh apart. But suddenly, it seems that there is none. All points are hardened, tough.\nRussia and China are standing firm and tall, their diplomats literally humiliating their counterparts from Western Empire by composed, powerfully sophisticated and refined behavior. But the militaries of both peaceful but mighty nations have recently been on constant alert: ready to defend their own people, and humanity.\nIran and North Korea are not yielding either. Syria is beginning to rebuild, despite the fact that the subversion, armed and supported from abroad, has not yet been fully defeated. Venezuela, Cuba and Bolivia are still there, standing upright, definitely not on their knees.\nSuddenly, no one is ready to surrender. This is the first time in history that the Empire has faced such scorn from the rest of the world.\nThe more solid is determination of various countries not to allow themselves to get colonized, the more insane is the St. Vitus Dance of the West becomes.\nThe unwillingness to lose great privileges as well as the \u2018ruling position\u2019 of the world (including the \u2018right\u2019 to tell the rest of the world what is \u2018correct\u2019 and what is not) is also clearly embedded in the positions of various European and North American pseudo-left-wing publications, movements and parties: they were always ready to shed tears over the fate of the poor and oppressed people anywhere in the world, or \u2018fight against war/for peace\u2019, but they have been greatly allergic to those non-white nations that have been bravely proclaiming their right to march on their own path, or practically: to choose their own political and economic systems, as well as their way of life.\nImperialism, chauvinism and the cultural superiority complexes of the West have many different forms and shades. Almost no individual there is immune to these ills, if one doesn\u2019t count those very few pure men and women who could be defined as internationalists. There are some of them even in the U.S., in the U.K. or France, but not many; not many at all.\nIn the past, those countries that were on the hit list of the Empire could only count on themselves. Lately, this has changed dramatically: now they can also count on each other.\nAnd that is why the Empire is going to lose! There is already a global coalition against its terror. It is still forming and defining itself, but it is already strong.\nThe Empire knows that it will lose; it knows it intuitively, but it is still in denial.\nIt may still ruin dozens of millions of human lives, before it is over. Most likely, it will. But the era of darkness, of those monstrous centuries of colonialism, will soon be ended.\nThe citizens of the West should finally think about their own history. They should do some serious learning, educating themselves. Most of them are fully ignorant, including those holding various degrees. What have their countries done to Russia, to China, to Iran to Korea, in fact to the entire Africa, Asia, the Middle East, and to what is now called Latin America?\nThe atrocious history of the West is flowing into present, and if the course is not dramatically changed, it will keep flowing into the future.\nAccumulatively, we are talking about hundreds of millions of human lives destroyed by the West throughout its colonialist and imperialist reign. Some statisticians are already talking about 1 billion.\nThis cannot be taken back, but the trend can be stopped.\nThe West has absolutely zero moral mandate to tell any country of the world how to behave. The world, despite the systematic brainwashing, is beginning to realize it.\nIf the West continues to bully its former and present victims, things will only backfire.\nEurope, North America and their allies (partners in crime) should simply sit on their backsides, weep and throw ashes on their heads, in shame and grieve over the horrors they put our planet through, for several centuries.\nInstead the West is running around, barking, showing fangs, shitting itself out of fear that it may lose its control over the world and could finally be forced to play by the international rules.\nIt doesn\u2019t even occur to it that it should, instead, get quickly admitted to a mental institution for particularly violent and sadistic patients.\nIts Manager is not an anomaly. He was put there, \u2018where he is\u2019, by the people. Many of his dreams and desires are identical to those of the masses.\nIn the West, he is not the first Manager of this sort, and he is not the worst. He is part of that long tradition of tyrants. And this tradition has to stop, very soon, in order for our Planet to survive.\nThese are brutal, dangerous and testing times. The ill, aggressive monster should not be allowed to totally destroy the world. Those who are already standing, should never surrender. Others should join. The survival of our civilization is at stake!\nPentagonUSWar\nPrevious Post: Trump\u2019s Foreign Policy Is In Service to Israel\nNext Post: Who Is Using Chlorine As a Chemical Weapon In Syria?",

        "raw_content": "Paraguay to move embassy back to Tel Aviv\nParaguay will move its embassy back to Tel Aviv, Foreign Minister Luis Alberto Castiglioni said on Wednesday, less than four months after it followed the United States lead and moved its embassy to Jerusalem.\nIsrael responded furiously, with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu instructing Israel to close its embassy in Asuncion.\n\u201cIsrael views with extreme gravity the unusual decision by Paraguay that will cast a cloud over relations between the countries,\u201d read a statement from the Prime Minister\u2019s Office.\nExplaining the decision to move the embassy back to Tel Aviv, Castiglioni said that Paraguay \u201cwants to contribute to an intensification of regional diplomatic efforts to achieve a broad, fair and lasting peace in the Middle East.\u201d\nParaguay followed the US and Guatemala and , with then-president Horacio Cartes making the decision in the final months of his five-year tenure which ended in August.\nHe was not eligible for reelection in April, which was won by co-party member Mario Abdo, who said that he was not consulted regarding the embassy move. Abdo is the grandson of a Lebanese immigrant.\nWednesday\u2019s developments were a stunning reversal in the direction that ties between the two countries were headed.\nAttending the inauguration of the small Paraguayan embassy in the Malha Technological Park in May, Netanyahu said Israeli-Paraguayan cooperation would now \u201cflow like water.\u201d\nNetanyahu called the move \u201ca great day for Israel, a great day for Paraguay, and a great day for our friendship.\u201d\nCartes said at the time that the embassy opening \u201cexpresses the sincere friendship and brave solidarity\u201d between the two countries.\nThe Palestinian Authority angrily denounced the move at the time, with the PA Foreign Ministry issuing a statement calling it a blatant act of aggression against the Palestinian people and their rights; a scandalous violation of relevant UN resolutions and international law; and the result of American-Israeli dictates and enticement.\nOn Wednesday, PA Foreign Minister Riyad al-Maleki congratulated Paraguay\u2018s decision, calling it \"a new Palestinian diplomatic achievement\" and saying he had met Abdo two weeks before.\nThe PA then announced that it intends to immediately open its own embassy in Paraguay in Asuncion.\nCartes was the first Paraguayan leader to visit Israel when he came here in 2016. He also flew to Buenos Aires in 2017 to meet Netanyahu when he was visiting Latin America.\nCartes was elected in 2013 with a campaign team that included a group of Israeli advisers, including Netanyahu\u2019s former bureau chief Ari Harow.\nIronically, Paraguay\u2019s decision came two days after Colombia\u2019s new President Ivan Duque said that he would not reverse a decision made in the final days of his predecessor Juan Manuel Santos to recognize \u201cPalestine.\u201d\nIn a radio interview, Duque said he would have liked to have had more debate on the issue, but that he is respectful of decisions made by leaders before their terms expire.\nPLO Secretary-General Saeb Erekat welcomed the decision: \"We commend Paraguay\u2019s decision to act in accordance with its obligations under international law by closing its embassy in Jerusalem and relocating it to Tel Aviv,\" he said in a statement. \" President Abdo\u2019s courageous decision shows that the government of Asunci\u00f3n has chosen to go back to the traditional Latin American position of respect for international law and UN resolutions.\"\nErekat called We upon the countries that have supported the Palestinians to look into ways \"to encourage cooperation and bilateral relations with Paraguay.\"\nErekat urged the Guatemala to stand on the right side of history and move its embassy outside Jerusalem. \"This is also time for [US President Donald] Trump\u2018s administration to realize that no peace-loving country will follow their decision to recognize Jerusalem as Israel\u2019s capital,\" he added. \"Only respecting international law and UN resolutions will help to achieve a just and lasting peace.\"\nWorld Jewish Congress President Ronald S. Lauder, however, found the decision to move the embassy \"deeply regrettable and disappointing.\"\n\"Paraguay has always been a steadfast supporter of the State of Israel, and it is extremely concerning to witness the unnecessary strain in ties between two historically strong friends,\" Lauder stated Wednesday night.",

        "raw_content": "Things that make you go, \"Hmm\u2026.\" (Fake Flat Screen TVs)\n08/14/2009 by auntiemaimlsc\tin Criminals/Crime, Humor, In the News\nI first heard about this on the radio, and then (being the militant researcher I am) looked it up to get the actual facts. I found the story in the Oakland Tribune, written by Jason Sweeney. This story is from August 7, 2009.\nApparently, on Wednesday, August 5, 2009, the whistle was blown on Anthony Myles, a 52-year-old from Richmond, in San Leandro, California because someone was suspicious of him trying to sell a 37\u201d Sony flat screen TV out of his car. The box in the car had a Best Buy sticker stating it was priced at $1,949. The bargain price? $100 bucks. Great deal, huh? Except that it might be stolen, which is why the concerned citizen grabbed his proverbial whistle.\nThe police stopped Myles and arrested him for driving on a suspended license. Someone must have recalled the tip about a guy in a 1980 Oldsmobile Cutlass possibly selling stolen goods, and when they searched the car, they found out what was actually in the official-looking box: an oven door, covered with flat screen TV decals! The box had installation instructions, cables, and all the proper packaging materials of a new TV. His story to potential customers? He had bought it at a flea market for $60.\nMyles was attempting to sell the oven door in the parking lot of the San Lorenzo Wal-Mart, at 15555 Hesperian Blvd. According to reporter Jason Sweeney, the San Leandro police Lt. Pete Ballew referred to the scam as a variation of the old \u201crocks in a box\u201d trick. Lt. Ballew called the man\u2019s effort \u201cingenious\u201d. In today\u2019s economy, many of us are eager for bargains, and common sense can get lax \u2013 but go ahead and be suspicious when a guy tries to sell you a box out of his car; you\u2019ve been warned!\nIn Sweeny\u2019s story, Lt. Ballew said, \u201cIf you think you\u2019re getting something for nothing, you\u2019re probably getting nothing for something.\u201d He also said you should call the police if you suspect someone is attempting to sell you fake merchandise.\nPersonally, I had quite a good snicker over this story. I also feel a little better about the collective IQ of humanity, that Mr. Myles hadn\u2019t yet managed to sell his oven door. Now we know where the slang, \u201cdumb as a box of rocks\u201d comes from: that\u2019s what you\u2019d call someone stupid enough to fall for the flea market pitch! Still, points for cleverness must be awarded to Myles for his presentation.\n\u2190 The Big Top\nMy latest obsession: BlackBerry themes \u2192",

        "raw_content": "A fine example of a two-roomed Victorian corner pub retaining some original features. Wood-floored throughout and some of the floorboards have survived two hundred years of trade.\nThe central bar with fifteen handpumps sits in between and serves both rooms.\nThere is live music most nights from a small stage in the corner of the front room, which also features a mural on the back wall depicting many blues and rock legends and is decorated with various music memorabilia.\nThe pub has existed under several different names including THE HORSE & GROOM & THE BROUGHAM'S ARMS. During the second world war Broughams had a reputation for being a place where women would meet and entertain American GI\u2019s. It wasn't until 1985 - while the pub was under the care of landlord Les Moon - that the name changed to The Duck & Drake. Though the present name is represented in the form of waterfowl it actually refers to the pastime of skimming stones on water called \u201cducks & drakes\u201d.\nParking is often tricky... There is an NCP car park quite close by but it closes bang on 11pm - so if the bands still rocking - your car may get locked in!\nLS2 7DR.\nRory Holl\nBlack Bear Bones",

        "raw_content": "What are the Requirements for Purchasing Socks\nThe most interesting piece of clothing is known to be socks. Although many people pay less attention to their socks, they are the main cause of their daily comfort for their feet. If you choose the wrong pair, you might not get the best protection that they should. Also, there are many other functions of socks for both men and female. If you have been receiving some distraction look, then you need to look carefully the type of socks you have been wearing because it could be the reason why. If you buy the pair of socks without considering some issues, then you just might end up regretting. Again, you should not keep buying the wrong pair of socks using your dollars you did not borrow but earned.\nSome people are ignorant with the pair of socks they wear every day because they do not know the impacts they have to face. If you have any torn or stained pair of socks in your wardrobe, it is the best time that you get rid of them completely. Some people go wrong for assuming this issue and think that is very obvious. If you think that you are safe just because you wear shoes all through to hide the stained and torn socks, you are mistaken. In some residential places, owners do not allow people to enter their homes with their shoes on their feet.\nHave you been wondering why you get that weird look while walking around the town? Most men are ignorant towards this rule because they are sure that people cannot notice that their socks do not match their trousers unless they are looking at their shoes. That does not mean that men should always stick to this rule. Instead, they are allowed to go against especially if they already know their styles. Men with their own styles can easily buy more socks that have different types of colors and patterns that match with their outfits.\nWhen it comes to the length of socks, men tend to have different taste. There are many different perceptions that men have about exposing some parts of their legs. Most men find difficulties trying to stick to this rule because many manufacturers do not produce socks that are will reach the knees. The length of the short and long socks is what leads to the different prices. You need to ensure that you have bought high-quality socks that are made of high-quality materials. If you are searching for the best pair of socks, you need to choose the ones that are made of cotton. Socks from cotton materials are comfortable, long lasting and not too expensive.",

        "title": "Litigation training",
        "raw_content": "January 2014 saw the publication of the new Bar Standards Board (BSB) Handbook The focus of regulation is based on the concept of risk.\n\"We call it \"risk-based regulation\"...In the past we based our regulation on very strict rules. We could not readily adapt our approach to different circumstances and often we could only take action after something had gone wrong. Rules still play an important part in our new way of working. But now we are starting to work in a more flexible way whenever we decide on the best action to take. This approach helps us to regulate in line with the regulatory principles set out in the Legal Services Act 2007, s28.\nA further key change in 2014 was that, for the first time, self-employed barristers were allowed to apply for an extension to their practising certificate in order to be able to conduct litigation. The result: as long as PA barristers have the correct authorisation, their clients no longer have to act as a self-representing litigant or instruct a solicitor, should the case go to court. As confidence in the PA model has grown, so too has the demand for this authorisation to conduct litigation.\nIn order to apply for an extension to practising certificates authorising individuals to conduct litigation, each barrister will need to complete an application form. In reviewing this application, authorisation staff will assess whether it meets the criteria for authorisation. One of the key factors being considered during this process is the training and experience of litigation.\nThe Bar Council is providing a one day training course to prepare practitioners for this exciting development in the way they are entitled to practice.\nIn April 2016, The Bar Standards Board (BSB) produced three documents designed to complement the approach set out in the BSB 2016-2019 Strategic Plan.\ni) The Risk Framework describes the BSB approach to identifying and managing risks in the legal system;\nii) The Risk Index categorises those risks;\niii) The Risk Outlook prioritises three risk themes the BSB think should be the current focus of our regulatory attention.\nIn line with this approach, the focus of the course is not on areas of black letter law relating to elements of legal services not hitherto delivered by barristers - although the relevant provisions of the CPR 1998 and FPR 2010 will of course be considered.\nRather it will be looking at areas of potential risk in terms of the delivery of the consumer services. Delegates will be directed to consider the risk profile of:\n1. The client.\n2. The subject matter.\n3. Other involved/related parties (including LiPs)\n4. The procedural aspects and steps required at particular stages of litigation.\n5. Their own methods and patterns of working.\nWorking through the anatomy of a case, there will be much opportunity for\ndiscussion, debate and further learning.\nWednesday 13 March 2019 09:30- 17:30 6 creadits London Click here to book\nSaturday 22 June 2019 09:30-17:30 6 credits London Click here to book\n**Prior to attending the course, we would ordinarily expect you to have undertaken the public access training course, or to have renewed your public access training\n***Please note, satisfactory completion of this course is only part of the required steps to be authorised to conduct litigation\nFor further guidance on the authorisation to conduct litigation please click here.",

        "raw_content": "The Bellingham Music Club\u2019s 2015-2016 season marked its 100th year of nourishing the musical and cultural life of Bellingham and the Northwest. The largest music club in Washington, the BMC also ranks among the oldest of its kind in the nation. Be sure to listen to two podcasts produced by WWU students in May 2016: one featuring Nancy Bussard who has been associated with the BMC since 1952. and the other, H\u00e9l\u00e8ne Minari, who was BMC president 1993-1998.\nThe first meeting was called to order on February 22, 1916, by co-founders Mrs. C. X. Larrabee and Mme. Mary Davenport-Engberg, at the Larrabee home, Lairmont Manor. Mrs. Larrabee was a New England Conservatory-trained violinist. Mme. Davenport-Engberg was a prominent violinist and conductor with European training and reputation, by then teaching at Western Normal School (now Western Washington University). She had previously founded the Bellingham Symphony Orchestra in 1910, and was later credited with reviving the languishing Seattle Symphony Orchestra as the Seattle Civic Symphony Orchestra, which she conducted between 1921 and 1924.\nConstituted as a women\u2019s organization, the new club soon became the heart of Bellingham\u2019s musical life. Members would audition for the privilege of performing for invited audiences, while raising funds to bestow occasional awards on exceptional student musicians at Western Normal School. Many of these students went on to further musical study and ultimately careers as performers and teachers.\nFollowing World War II, the rise of electronic entertainment media and the surge in women entering the workforce had an eroding impact on the Club\u2019s membership. Change was needed, and in 1988 a dynamic new President, Ethel Crook, violinist and co-founder of the Whatcom Symphony Orchestra, threw open the doors and invited men to join the club for the first time. Soon local artists and WWU faculty were invited to perform at meetings, while the BMC expanded its student award program with competitions for piano, voice and orchestral instrument, particularly strings.\nBy the 21st century, the Club\u2019s leadership again moved to respond to the changing musical landscape. Dynamic new programs were instituted, student awards were increased to five separate competitions for Whatcom County high school and Western Washington University students, and by 2014 the Club\u2019s mission was expanded to include evening music performances for the public, under the series title of Night Beat. These very successful public programs have included solo recitals, ensembles from strings to percussion, and cabaret-style shows. Now at its 100th year, the 200-member Bellingham Music Club is growing in size and diversity, while it continues to nurture promising young musicians and share the best of Whatcom County\u2019s musical talent with growing audiences.\nThe BMC was founded on the belief that making music nourishes the soul, uniting family, friends and community. Over the decades, the mission of the club has evolved from staging musical performances to supporting music education and performance in all of its forms. Today, hundreds of musicians and teachers in Whatcom County, across the state and around the world are grateful for the support and encouragement they received from the BMC, and for the strong musical community the club has inspired in the Northwest.\nBMC records for 1916-2009 are located at the Center for Pacific Northwest Studies on WWU campus.

        "raw_content": "A credit card for business can offer multiple benefits, including convenience and flexibility. However, small business owners may have trouble getting approved for business credit cards, and they might also find that the cards carry high rates of interest and substantial annual fees. A debit card for business from Bento for Business may be a better choice for small business owners and still offer the same type of flexibility that the business needs.\nIn order to get a credit card for business, a business owner will need to find an appropriate card and apply for it. Many companies will decline applications from businesses that are new because they haven\u2019t been in business for long enough to have established good credit histories. Some credit card companies will want to review the personal credit histories of the owners before making their decisions. If the owners have marks on their credit, they may be denied.\nCredit cards are desirable for businesses because of the flexibility that they can provide. Employees can make the purchases that they need when they need to do so instead of waiting for signatures and approvals. The purchases that are made on the cards can be easily seen and entered into the company\u2019s accounting software when the credit card statements arrive each month. Credit cards can also help companies to avoid employee reimbursement systems, helping to eliminate burdensome paperwork. Small business owners might want to consider business debit cards as an alternative to credit cards.\nBento for Business\u2019s business debit cards vs. credit cards\nBento for Business offers business debit cards that have multiple advantages over traditional corporate credit cards. The cards are prepaid debit cards, which means that the balances do not accrue interest charges. When business owners apply for the cards, their credit histories are not checked since they are not traditional credit cards. The approval process is also substantially faster. The debit cards are Visa\u00ae, allowing workers to make the purchases that they need for businesses whenever and wherever they need to do so.\nBenefits of the business debit cards\nBento for Business offers several features that might make its debit cards a superior choice for businesses. These cards can help small business owners to prevent employee thefts and fraud. Business owners deposit money into accounts that are FDIC-insured to at least $250,000 through The Bancorp Bank; Member FDIC. The business owners can then use money from these accounts to place funds on each card that they plan to give to individual employees. The employees can be limited to daily spending amounts in specific categories of spending. One employee might be able to purchase gasoline at the pump while another might only be able to purchase office supplies. Any employee who attempts to buy something with his or her card will be denied. Business owners are given access to secure dashboards that they can view from their computers or mobile devices.

        "title": "Brooklyn Heights Real Estate",
        "raw_content": "July 25, 2014 | By ANNE RAVER\nMAYBE it\u2019s in our bones. That urge to seek water. To go down to the river.\nYears ago, when I lived in Brooklyn Heights, I would walk to the edge of the Promenade and take in the view of Manhattan rising across the East River \u2014 and long to continue down to the edge, to feel the current rushing by. The view was spectacular, of course, but the experience ultimately disappointing, because I could only lean against the railing, looking down on those warehouses and long piers below, as trucks rattled beneath my feet on the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway.\nBut now, there is Brooklyn Bridge Park: 85 acres that follow the river for more than a mile, beginning at Dumbo, along a tidal shoreline, to the six reclaimed piers that extend from beneath the Brooklyn Bridge, straight down to Atlantic Avenue. Building began six years ago at opposite ends of the park, Pier 1 and Pier 6. The first trees were planted in 2009, and by the next year, people had begun to wander the mounded hills, with their glorious lookouts over Pier 1, and to take their children to the lush playgrounds and water park on the eastern side of Pier 6. Now about two-thirds finished, the park continues to open in stages: The sports fields on Pier 5, with its lively picnic peninsula, opened in late 2012. Squibb Bridge, which connects the Heights to the river, opened last year. The long-awaited ball courts on Pier 2 \u2014 now filled with the pounding feet of basketball players and the thwack of handballs \u2014 opened in May. Other spaces have followed in swift succession this summer: a roller skating rink; and a little sandy beach facing the remains of Pier 4, which is now a bird sanctuary complete with osprey nest.\nA couple of weeks ago, I stepped onto the plank-and-cable bridge that begins at Squibb Park, just north of the Promenade, and zigzagged my way through thin air to the riverside. The airy walkway, made of heavy black locust, so naturally resistant to rot and insects that it needs no chemical treatment, bounces a bit \u2014 alarming grown-ups, delighting children \u2014 as you cross, like a hiker over some canyon in Yosemite. Only this is Furman Street, not a river you look down on, with the roar of the expressway, not a waterfall, at your back.\nThe bridge descends this way and that, for more than 400 feet, until the leafy tops of bur oaks and yellow buckeye trees rise reassuringly above the wire mesh railing, letting you know that terra firma is not too far below.\nHere among the treetops, right across from Pier 1, you can take in Manhattan\u2019s skyline of steel and glass rising to the west, the muscular gothic beauty of the Brooklyn Bridge to the north, the Statue of Liberty way to the south, raising her tired arm toward the Atlantic. I think of this as the soaring park, because of these views that stretch in all directions, changing with the light and where you choose to wander, the heady mix of salt and beach roses and diesel from the tugs filling your nostrils.\nSunny lawns and high overlooks \u2014 one a granite terrace with great wide steps, the stone salvaged from the old Roosevelt Island Bridge \u2014 suggest places to run or read or nap, or stare out at whatever is happening on the river. There are shady trails here, too, through a series of freshwater marshes created by collected rain, where you can see dragonflies hovering over the water or a mother duck leading her babies through the reeds. Butterflies and bees, flies and little wasps sip nectar from the pink flower puffs of joe-pye weed, the tiny purple blossoms of ironweed, the bright yellow daisies of silphium, or cup plant, whose big leaves are held together like hands to catch the rain. (Watch the little finches drink water from the leaves.)\nIt\u2019s hard to believe that all this nature is artificial, highly engineered weirs and underground cisterns, tons of constructed soils and rocks placed with mathematical precision on these piers, where great ships once docked, and thousands of longshoremen trundled goods in and out of the sheds.\nIn the evening, I glimpsed the river through the wide, spreading branches of a catalpa tree and walked down to the edge of Pier 1, where the long railing gave me another vista, this one straight south, as if I were racing along with the current. Huge thunderclouds were rising over Manhattan, and a wind blew up, turning the water to choppy waves that sent salt spray over the railing.\nOn a quiet afternoon a week later, park visitors paddled kayaks in the sheltered cove, where you can watch the tide rising and falling among exposed piles and moving up and down the boat ramp edged by a spiral of riprap, the big chunky stones that edge the shoreline. It\u2019s this juxtaposition of intimate little spaces and expansive views that makes the park so exhilarating and a place to return to in different light and seasons.\nMichael Van Valkenburgh, the landscape architect whose team designed this masterwork in collaboration with the Brooklyn Bridge Park Corporation, recalls walking down to the end of the piers 15 years ago, when the sheds were still in place.\n\u201cI\u2019d think, all we have to do is just not mess this up,\u201d he said that scorching afternoon in early July. \u201cThere are eight million people in New York City, and none of them knows that this incredible view is going to be theirs.\u201d\nWe had walked down the wide path that skirts the north side of the soccer field on Pier 5, where tall steel posts, remnants of the old shed, anchor the high mesh that keeps balls from flying out. The posts also set up a rhythm, like some 18th-century line of poplars, sweeping the eye down the pier and straight across the river to the turreted roofs of Ellis Island.\nWe walked out to the end of Pier 6, still a bare slab, painted with lines and circles that mark where paths will curve through an acre of flowers \u2014 a constructed New England meadow \u2014 edged by seaside survivors like pitch pine, bayberry and tupelo. It will open next spring.\nThe complete article can be found at http://www.nytimes.com/2014/07/25/arts/design/hey-mister-ive-got-a-park-i-can-sell-you.html?_r=0",

        "raw_content": "Most internet service providers have packages with asymmetrical speeds. This means that your upload speed limit is lower than your download speed limit.\nWhile most of your day to day activity may revolve around your download speeds. If you\u2019ve ever watched in growing frustration as it takes forever to upload a document, image, or video to social media or a cloud storage service you\u2019ll have felt the pinch of your upload limits.\nIf you\u2019ve ever had unexplained slowdowns with a streaming service, you might have been experiencing this issue as well as there is a constant stream of information going out to that service which the downstream function relies on in order to work correctly.\nWe searched for the listed upload speeds on the residential packages of three of the major carriers in the UK. We\u2019ve included links to the pages where they list their own speeds because you really shouldn\u2019t trust what you read on the internet. Below are the results as of 19/11/2018.\nVirgin Media came in last place of the three with their best upload speed being 6% of their Vivid 50 download speeds and getting worse as you upgrade. To be fair, the upload speeds only get worse by around half a percentage point on the higher packages but when the bar is already so low\u2026\nhttps://www.virginmedia.com/shop/broadband/speeds.html\nSky comes in at a close second with upload speeds consistently averaging right about 25% of their download speeds. They get a Dishonourable Mention award in the allowance category for making you upgrade (read: pay more) to get unlimited usage if you go with their lowest package.\nhttps://www.sky.com/help/articles/your-sky-fibre-questions-answered\nBT\u2019s upload speeds vary by the widest margin with a maximum upload percentage of 26% on their top speed package and just 10% on their lowest. However, they do win the Best Hidden award for having the hardest to find information on their upload speeds. Notably we could not find this information on the page where you can actually buy their product.\nhttps://www.productsandservices.bt.com/broadband/fibre/\nhttps://www.productsandservices.bt.com/broadband/ultrafast/\nOur speed plans are AT LEAST 50% of our download speeds and that\u2019s on our lowest package. You can find out more here: https://blissinternet.co.uk/plans\nWe don\u2019t blame the other carriers. Generally, the upload speeds they can provide are limited by the archaic technology they use to get their service to your door. Our service uses newer technology which allows us full control over how our capacity is split between download and upload. Higher upload speeds are quite common among Wireless Internet Service Providers (WISP\u2019s) so even if you\u2019re not in our service area, check if you have a WISP near you and leave low upload speeds in the past where they belong.",

        "raw_content": "You may have dental erosion (tooth surface loss TSL). If so, this condition should be carefully monitored by your dentist. The first and most important consideration is to get an accurate diagnosis and recording of the extent of the condition. The next consideration is to accurately identify the probable cause so that remedial action can be taken immediately to prevent or minimise any further tooth surface loss (TSL). The following have been identified as causative factors either on their own or in combination; citrus fruits eaten more than twice a day, daily consumption of soft drinks, regular consumption of sports drinks. The risk of TSL is also high in individuals who have gastric symptoms or who have vomiting associated with bulimia or who have reduced salivary flow associated with certain medications. Until causative factors have been identified and modified, all other attempts at controlling or treating this condition are likely to end in failure. A variety of products have been developed by the dental industry in recent years to assist with a reduction in symptoms and in the remineralisation of teeth affected by tooth surface loss. The use of these products is helpful but is of secondary importance to an accurate diagnosis and elimination of the causative factors associated with tooth surface loss.

        "raw_content": "Articles / Political instability in Thailand affects ASEAN countries\nPolitical instability in Thailand affects ASEAN countries\nSince the 2006 military coup that ousted then Prime Minister, Thaksin Shinawatra, Thailand has witnessed political instability, with the latest in a series of anti-government protests ended forcibly by the military in May 2010. Political instability adversely affects tourism, consumer spending and investor confidence not only in Thailand, but also in neighbouring ASEAN countries.\nEver since the 2006 coup, Thailand has been gripped by political turmoil. In April 2009, Red Shirt protesters \u2013 those who are angry that Thaksin\u2019s government was forced out of office \u2013 caused the cancellation of the ASEAN summit and their latest anti-government protests went on from March to May 2010;\nIn 2009, real GDP contracted by 2.3% year-on-year largely as a result of falling demand for Thai exports amid the global economic downturn. In Q1 2010, real GDP growth was strong at 12.0% year-on-year, following 5.9% growth in Q4 2009. The rise stemmed from growth in exports, private consumption expenditure and investments;\nAnnual growth in real GDP in Thailand: Q1 2008 \u2013 Q1 2010\nSource: Bank of Thailand.\nDespite the strong annual real GDP growth in Q1 2010, the latest political unrest in Thailand is a concern not only for the Thai economy but for the ASEAN region as a whole. Thailand, accounting for 17.7% of the ASEAN\u2019s GDP in 2009, is an important driver of economic growth for the region. Thailand\u2019s economy is the ASEAN\u2019s second largest after Indonesia.\nPolitical instability has adverse effects on Thailand\u2019s economy:\nThe number of tourist arrivals in Thailand went down from 1.7 million in December 2009 to 1.1 million in April 2010. With security concerns, hotel occupancy fell from 60.2% in January 2010 to 46.6% in April 2010. Tourism is important for the Thai economy as tourist receipts accounted for 6.1% of GDP in 2009;\nNumber of international tourist arrivals in Thailand: April 2009 \u2013 April 2010\n\u2019000 arrivals\nBusiness and investor confidence was also hit as the Business Sentiments Index (BSI) fell to 46.0 in April 2010 from 55.7 in the previous month. This was the largest month-on-month fall for the BSI since 1999. Domestic political uncertainty was the most cited business constraint from February-April 2010;\nIn April 2010, the Consumer Confidence Index (CCI) fell to 67.2 from 69.8 in March 2010, largely due to concerns over the intensifying political situation. Private consumption expenditure fell by 2.2% in Q1 2010 compared to Q4 2009, however, was up by 4.0% year-on-year.\nPolitical instability in Thailand will also have regional implications:\nOther ASEAN countries could witness higher tourist arrivals if the political unrest in Thailand continues and drives tourists to neighbouring destinations. In May 2010, tour agencies continued to report the cancellation of bookings to Thailand, stimulating booms in nearby countries;\nOf the ASEAN\u2019s total FDI inflows, Thailand received 16.5% in 2008, second to Singapore. Given the instability in Thailand, investors might relocate to neighbouring ASEAN countries, which will benefit them. However if the Thai political crisis prolongs, it could be seen as instability for the whole ASEAN, deterring FDI inflows into the region. Within the ASEAN, member countries fear that the situation in Thailand could spread economic and political instability throughout the region;\nIntra-regional trade will be affected as Thailand accounted for 15.5% of intra-ASEAN trade in 2009. Trade between other ASEAN members and Thailand could reduce, amid a fragile global recovery, which in turn can affect the economic growth of other ASEAN countries in 2010;\nThe ASEAN is a large market of 580 million consumers and aims to have regional economic integration by 2015. Stability and development in Thailand are crucial for reaching this target.\nUncertainty about the political situation in Thailand remains, leaving the Thai economy vulnerable to additional shocks:\nIn February 2010, the National Economic and Social Development Board revised its annual real GDP growth forecast for 2010 downwards from 7.0% to 3.5-4.5%. This was maintained in May 2010;\nIn May 2010, the Tourism Council of Thailand estimated international tourist arrivals in 2010 to be lower at 12.7 million compared to a target of 15.5 million and 14.1 million arrivals in 2009;\nThe government plans to make over Bt5 billion (US$146 million) available to tourism-industry businesses in low-interest loans. In a bid to revive tourist arrivals, free travel insurance for foreign tourists and a waiver of tourist visa fees have been extended until March 2011;\nWhile other ASEAN nations expressed concern for the political crisis in Thailand, they are unlikely to help solve it due to the ASEAN\u2019s long-standing principle of non-interference in internal affairs of member states.\nWatch a video on the political unrest in Thailand and how it is effecting the Thai economy.\nASEAN, Thailand",

I often think of this song whenever I come across references to Queensland Railways\u2019 C16 Class locomotives, the prototype of which was designed and built here at the Ipswich Railway Workshops in 1903.\nWorking at The Workshops Rail Museum located within the Ipswich Railway Workshops, it is impossible not to be inspired by the engineering capabilities of these workshops. The opening of the workshops took place in 1903 to replace the outdated and constrained site, dating from 1864, on the north bank of the Bremer River now occupied by the Riverlink shopping centre.\nThe increasing traffic and the expansion of the rail network in Queensland meant that the early light-weight locomotives could not cope with the volume of traffic especially on main lines. The use of heavier locomotives was generally prevented by the light track and bridges that had been built since the railways first opened.\nThe C16 Class was the first locomotive type to be designed and built at the new workshops. The Chief (Civil) Engineer approved this design for use on 41\u00bc lbs rails but severe restrictions were placed on where it could be used until track and bridges were strengthened. The prototype trialled between Brisbane and Toowoomba was very successful.\nOnly one C16 now survives, No.106 cared for by Downs Steam in Toowoomba and memories brought to mind through photographs and an Australian folk song \u2013 \u201cBilly Sheen and his C16\u201d.\nThe first C16 built poses in a grey paint scheme at the Ipswich Railway Workshops in 1903. It was the prototype of a new class of locomotive and the first locomotive built following the opening of the new Ipswich Railway Workshops in February 1903.

Livingston, a former Mukilteo Citizen of the Year, was the librarian back when the library was at Rosehill.\nFormer Mukilteo City Council member Harold Quinby also spoke, giving some history on getting the library up and running.\nQuinby was on the council from 1994 to 2001, and said one of their main goals was finding an easily accessible location for the library.\n\u201cWe thought this location would be perfect as it\u2019s close to both Olympic View and Harbour Pointe Middle School,\u201d Quinby said. \u201cWe were able to make it happen with the help of the city and Sno-Isle, who helped fund the library.\u201d\nIn 1996, Mukilteo voters agreed to bond themselves for $2.8 million to help build the Mukilteo Library in Harbour Pointe, as well as annex to the Sno-Isle Libraries System.\nMukilteo had been without a library for about 3 1/2 years, and the 15,000-square-foot library officially opened its doors on July 27, 1998.\nPrevious articleSno-Isle Libraries Board of Trustees Seeking Applications\nNext articleMandy Manning brings message of acceptance and community",

        "raw_content": "Tag Archives: street lighting\nFebruary 12, 2013 Tania Mashburn\t7 Comments\nThieves used a golf club shaft to locate the copper wiring. They dug it up, cut it, and tried to pull it out by attaching it to a vehicle.\nDriving in the dark lately? You may have noticed the lights are out along some sections of major interstates, like I-15, I-80, and I-215. But don\u2019t blame the power company or burned out light bulbs\u2026the real culprits are thieves who are in the business of stealing copper wire.\nWhen you and I drive past the big light posts on the freeway, we might not think twice about the copper wiring that powers high mast and interchange lighting. But to some, the junction boxes next to the posts are a gold mine waiting to be found. To uncover the copper wiring and pull it out, thieves have used everything from shovels and trucks\u2026to golf clubs and horses.\nTo combat their creativity, we\u2019ve got to get a little creative ourselves. Led by Richard Hibbard, UDOT\u2019s State Lighting Maintenance Crew (Mike Bishop, Todd Wright, John Garcia, Walter \u201cWoody\u201d Wood, and Brandon Clark) focuses on the hardest hit areas and the biggest targets.\nThe lighting crew has tried relocating and burying boxes as a method of theft deterrent, but in this case, the thieves managed to locate the box and dig it up.\nThe crew is now moving junction boxes away from the light posts and burying them randomly, making the boxes more difficult for thieves to find. (Don\u2019t worry, we\u2019ve got a locator ball inside so our own guys know where they are.) The crew is also welding handhole covers onto poles, filling some boxes with concrete, and adding rebar to others to make it harder to chip the concrete away.\nDespite our best efforts, thieves are still getting to some of those areas and they\u2019re hitting new locations seemingly every week. Hibbard says some of the hot spots are I-80 near Stansbury Park, I-215 at 700 North and 2100 North, I-15 at 600 North, and I-215 at I-80. He says, \u201cI- 215 at I-80 is just a mess. If anyone wants to know why those lights are out it\u2019s because half the wiring is gone.\u201d\nIn fact, the amount of copper wire that UDOT has had to replace in just the past two years is staggering. Since February 2011, crews have replaced 110,000 feet of copper wire in Region 2 alone.\nSign structures are fair game with wire thieves. Here they have cut wire in a structure-mounted disconnect box and pulled it out through the ground-level junction box.\nThey suspect there\u2019s another 75,000 feet missing they haven\u2019t gotten to yet. And the situation does not appear to be improving. In January 2013, thieves made off with 15 hundred feet of copper wire from just one location.\nMetal recyclers pay about $2.75-$3.00 per pound for unstripped wire, so a thousand feet of stolen wire would net someone anywhere from $300 to $700. Unfortunately, it costs a lot to replace that wire, and taxpayers are footing the bill. In the past two years, nearly $450,000 of materials and man hours has gone into replacing stolen copper wire. That\u2019s enough money to pay for 26,000 feet of new cable median barrier.\nSomething needs to change, but what can we do? The answer is keep your eyes open. Hibbard says, \u201cIf you see anyone that appears to be working on lighting, someone should be asking questions.\u201d And he means anyone. If you see a guy on a bike digging near a light post, a car pulled off the side of the freeway, or even someone in an orange vest poking around a junction box\u2026be suspicious.\nHibbard suspects many of the thieves are electricians or others who know what they\u2019re doing and look professional. He thinks some thefts may be happening during the day, but most happen at night. \u201cThe most suspicious thing is just any time you see a car parked on the side of the road, especially at night. I always find myself wondering what\u2019s going on there.\u201d\nIf you suspect copper wire theft is underway, but you\u2019re not quite sure, you can always call the TOC and they\u2019ll be able to find out if there\u2019s legitimate work going on in that location.\nThe lighting crew welded a metal plate over a handhole, but in this case the thieves were able to bend it enough to get to the wire.\nIf you\u2019re positive there\u2019s a theft underway, just call the police. Let\u2019s put the thieves behind bars, because after all, it\u2019s our taxpayer money they\u2019re stealing.\nThieves will attempt to chip out concrete caps within a box, but rebar will prevent the concrete from \u201cchunking,\u201d making removal far more difficult.\nThis is an example of a theft-deterring junction box lid. The polymer concrete has a steel plate backing and is attached to the box with security bolts. However, this hasn\u2019t stopped someone from attempting to chip out a bolt as is evident on the lid surface.\nstreet lighting, Traffic and Safety Division, Traffic Management Division",

        "title": "Nintendo toys with free trials - should you?",
        "raw_content": "Vindicia > Blog > Best Practices > Nintendo toys with free trials \u2013 should you?\nNintendo, one of the world\u2019s oldest, most successful video game companies, recently released its latest console to great anticipation. The system was sold out across several retailers, and its launch game, \u201cThe Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild,\u201d is en route to becoming a fan favorite. Yet the Switch comes with one catch that\u2019s left fans agitated rather than celebratory: The online gameplay feature will change from a free trial to a subscription service for all users in the fall. Although this move upset Nintendo\u2019s fans, it\u2019s a maneuver that will provide them with more options in the long run.\nA switch for Nintendo\nNintendo\u2019s previous console, the Nintendo Wii U, was far less successful than its competition, Sony\u2019s Playstation 4 and Microsoft\u2019s Xbox One. According to VG Chartz, the Wii U sold 13.8 million units as of Jan. 2017, compared to the Xbox One\u2019s 28.3 million units and the Playstation 4\u2019s 54.8 million units, despite the fact the Wii U came out a year before the latter two consoles. The general consensus among fans was Sony and Microsoft offered better consoles and games, resulting in higher sales. Still, Wii U fans enjoyed the fact that their console was the only one that did not charge for online play. This feature was touted as a testament to Nintendo\u2019s superiority.\nThat will change in the next few months, however. Switch users currently have access to free online play, but soon all players will have to subscribe regardless of what console they use. Upset fans have taken to voicing their displeasure across the internet in response.\n@kobunheat @Steverulez Nintendo just don\u2019t get it\n\u2014 XboxWhats\u264f (@XboxWhats) January 13, 2017\nLooking at the evidence, it appears Nintendo is taking a risk. Not only is it suddenly charging for a service that was previously free, but it\u2019s also removing an advantage it had over its competitors. In fact, Nintendo may be taking a step backward by restricting access to its online library of classic games. As Polygon pointed out, online subscribers get a free monthly download of a Nintendo Entertainment System or Super Nintendo Entertainment System game via Virtual Console. However, customers can only play the game unrestricted for one month. After the time period is up, they will have to purchase the game to continue playing. The implication is that people who purchased these games virtually on other platforms \u2013 such as the Wii U or the 3DS \u2013 will have to buy them again for the Switch.\nMonetizing to provide value\nNintendo\u2019s decision to charge for online play wasn\u2019t a blatant attempt to extract more money from its customers like many assumed. Rather, it falls in line with the company\u2019s plans to provide additional value to its fans.\n\u201cNintendo plans to increase its online offers but needs money to do so.\u201d\nShinya Takahashi, Nintendo\u2019s general manager of Entertainment Planning and Development, and Yoshiaki Koisumi, deputy general manager, gave an explanation of the company\u2019s reasoning in an interview with Japanese gaming magazine Fanmitsu, a translation of which was later published on Nintendo Everything. The two explained how Nintendo has plans to increase its online offers, but it needs money to do so.\n\u201cWe\u2019ll be maintaining the online service and providing new services that we haven\u2019t had up until now, and there are costs associated with those,\u201d Takahashi said, according to Nintendo Everything. \u201cWe\u2019d also like to maintain a stable playing experience and provide proper support.\u201d\nThis statement hints at an incredibly important concept: Nintendo can\u2019t sustain online play based on console sales alone, despite its strong numbers. The Switch retailed for $300 when it first launched on March 3 and, according to Business Insider, sold 906,000 units over the following 28 days. It\u2019s doubtful all of these customers will also use the online play service, but even a small percentage requires significant resources on Nintendo\u2019s part.\nSuch resources cost money, and the best way to raise revenue for a continues service such as online gaming is through subscriptions. While the transition may ruffle feathers, it is arguably a strong move on Nintendo\u2019s part. With additional subscription revenue, the company can invest in a better online experience for players.",

Mr. Miyazaki is known to have relied on hand drawing in his works despite the industry\u2019s shift toward computer animation.\n\u201cI am just starting to work on a new anime,\u201d Mr. Miyazaki told reporters. The director had announced his retirement from feature-length films in 2013, but revealed that his work style hasn\u2019t changed much except that he arrives at his studio a bit late and leaves a bit early than he used to. The new film is scheduled to take 3 years to complete, although the director said that he will try to wrap it up as soon as possible.\nSpeaking at the Foreign Correspondents\u2019 Club of Japan, Mr. Miyazaki also took jabs at Prime Minister Shinzo Abe\u2019s plan to expand Japan\u2019s military role.\nTrying to counter China\u2019s expansion with military power \u201cis impossible,\u201d the director said, adding that Japan must find other means to contribute to the stability and peace of the region. \u201cPrime Minister Abe appears to be willing to be remembered in history as the man who revised the Constitution, but that is a foolish thing,\u201d he said.\nRegarding the 70th anniversary of the end of World War II this year, Mr. Miyazaki said that Japan must face its past and acknowledge that it caused substantial damage to China. \u201cI understand that there are many people who wish to forget what happened, but we must remain repentant about the senseless acts Japan conducted in China for a long period of time,\u201d he said.\nKnown for anime classics including \u201cMy Neighbor Totoro,\u201d Mr. Miyazaki won the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature Film in 2002 with \u201cSpirited Away.\u201d He also won an honorary Academy award last year.\nPrevious Criticism Mounts Over High Cost Of Tokyo Olympic Stadium Next Top WSJ Stories on Japan: Nintendo's Shigeru Miyamoto, Renault-Nissan\nFilm director Hayao Miyazaki reveals new project, criticizes security bills",

Petrified Wood is the result of a tree turning into stone through the process of permineralization*.\nUnlike other kinds of fossils that are compressions or impressions, Petrified Wood is a three-dimensional representation of the original organic material. The earth energies present in this stone will calm your nerves and ease your fears. It will fill you with feelings of security, stability, and well-being. Petrified Wood is an ideal stone for meditation because it will guide you in knowing what\u2019s important and what\u2019s not.\n*All the organic materials of the tree have been replaced with silicate minerals, usually a quartz, while maintaining the wood\u2019s original structure.\nThis listing is for 1 piece of tumbled petrified wood, approximately 1/4\" to 1 1/2\" in diameter.\nChakra: 1st & 2nd, Root & Sacral Chakra",

(Photo: Getty Images)\nDolly Parton\u2019s \u201cTrio\u201d bandmates, surprise guests Emmylou Harris and Linda Ronstadt (the latter making a rare public appearance since her 2012 Parkinson\u2019s diagnosis), were among the many celebrities honoring Parton at the MusiCares Person of the Year Grammy event, held Friday at the Los Angeles Convention Center.\n\u201cIt\u2019s such a sweet thing for me and Linda to be here tonight celebrating our very dear and great friend,\u201d said Harris. \u201cSuch an extraordinary woman who has touched so many lives with her remarkable talent, but not just with her talent \u2014 her grace, her humor. She\u2019s one of the funniest people I know; she cracks me up.\u201d\nParton soon had the entire audience, which included everyone from Sammy Hagar to Nancy Pelosi, cracking up with her irreverent acceptance speech. \u201cEveryone always expects me to do a boob joke, and I like to do that right up front,\u201d she began, alluding to being known for \u201ctwo things\u2026 singing and songwriting.\u201d She also said, \u201cI truly can feel the love in the house tonight. Either that or my phone\u2019s on vibrate!\u201d When noting that she is the first country artist to be feted at the annual Grammy gala for MusiCares \u2014 the charity arm of the Recording Academy that helps musicians with, among other issues, addiction recovery and rehabilitation \u2014 Parton quipped, \u201cWe hillbillies need MusiCares too! We may not have sex, drugs, and rock \u2019n\u2019 roll, but two out of three ain\u2019t bad!\u201d\nParton had the audience whooping and hollering when she reflected on her career by saying, \u201cPeople say to me, \u2018Wasn\u2019t it a man\u2019s world back when you got in the business?\u2019 I said, \u2018It sure was! And buddy, I had a ball!\u2019 I have actually worked with so many wonderful men, and I\u2019ve never met a man that I didn\u2019t like. And I\u2019ve never met a man whose ass I couldn\u2019t kick if he didn\u2019t treat me with the right respect.\u201d And she had the audience gasping when she described watching the evening\u2019s all-stars cover her classic songs as \u201csort of like watching porn \u2014 you\u2019re not personally involved, but you still get off on it!\u201d\nHighlights among the night\u2019s cover-song performances were P!nk, wearing a Nudie suit with Dolly\u2019s name embroidered on the back, opening the show with \u201cJolene\u201d; Yolanda Adams\u2019s fiery and standing ovation-garnering \u201cI Will Always Love You\u201d; Garth Brooks and Trisha Yearwood\u2019s tender and chemistry-filled duet of \u201cOld Flames Can\u2019t Hold a Candle to You\u201d; Chris Stapleton\u2019s rugged and ragged take on \u201c9 to 5\u201d; former CMT Crossroad duet partners Katy Perry and Kacey Musgraves reuniting for \u201cHere You Come Again\u201d; Recording Academy Producers & Engineers Wing 2019 honoree Willie Nelson and six-time 2019 Grammy nominee Brandi Carlile\u2019s \u201cEverything\u2019s Beautiful (In Its Own Way)\u201d; and Parton\u2019s goddaughter, Miley Cyrus, crooning \u201cIslands in the Stream\u201d with Shawn Mendes in the Kenny Rogers role and Mark Ronson accompanying on guitar.\n\u201cThis is the best night \u2014 we just get to hear Dolly songs all night long!\u201d gushed Cyrus, who later during the live auction bid $90,000 for a meet-and-greet with Parton. \u201c[Dolly] taught the world to never judge a book by its cover \u2014 or its boobs and big hair.\u201d\nThey tried to auction a meet and greet with Dolly Parton at the MusiCares gala for her. They ended selling two of them for $90,000 each, with her goddaughter Miley Cyrus buying one of them. #GRAMMYs pic.twitter.com/2FY9Ho9k9Z\nThe MusiCares Person of the Year award recognizes musicians for their artistic and philanthropic achievement, with the annual ceremony raising money for the foundation. (In the past 29 years, the organization has raised $140 million; Friday\u2019s event brought in $6.7 million.) Parton was celebrated not just for a 50-year career that has included nine Grammy wins, 47 Grammy nominations, 25 gold or platinum records, 110 chart hits (25 of which went to No. 1), and an estimated 3,000 songs written overall, but for her many charitable endeavors.\nParton seemed especially proud to be honored for her literacy program, the Imagination Library, which mails one book per month to each enrolled child until they turn 5 years old. Parton explained, during a more serious portion of her speech, that she started the program in honor of her father, who could not read or write. \u201cHe was one of the smartest people I\u2019d ever known in spite of that, but it was kind of crippling to him. I often wondered what my daddy might have been, had he been able to read and write.\u201d She said she was thrilled that her father lived long enough to see the Imagination Library become a huge success (with more than 100 million free children\u2019s books disseminated around the world). \u201cHe got such a kick out of kids calling me the \u2018book lady,\u2019\u201d she said proudly.\nThe night ended sweetly with a final performance of a classic song inspired by Parton\u2019s mother, \u201cCoat of Many Colors,\u201d with Parton\u2019s Dumplin\u2019 soundtrack collaborator and 2019 Producer of the Year Grammy nominee Linda Perry accompanying Parton on acoustic guitar.

Its popularity quickly spread throughout the world, and the book has become an international classic. When Anne Boyd Rioux read the novel in her twenties, she had a powerful reaction to the story. Through teaching the book, she has seen the same effect on many others.\nAlcott\u2019s novel has moved generations of women, many of them writers: Simone de Beauvoir, J. K. Rowling, bell hooks, Cynthia Ozick, Jane Smiley, Margo Jefferson, and Ursula K. Le Guin were inspired by Little Women, particularly its portrait of the iconoclastic young writer, Jo. Many have felt, as Anna Quindlen has declared, \u201cLittle Women changed my life.\u201d\nToday, Rioux sees the novel\u2019s beating heart in Alcott\u2019s portrayal of family resilience and her honest look at the struggles of girls growing into women. In gauging its current status, Rioux shows why Little Women remains a book with such power that people carry its characters and spirit throughout their lives.\n\u201cLively and informative\u2026Meg, Jo, Beth, Amy does what\u2014ideally\u2014books about books can do: I\u2019ve taken Little Women down from my shelf and put it on top of the books I plan to read.\u201d \u2014 Francine Prose, New York Times Book Review\n\u201cHighly entertaining and eminently sane\u2026[Rioux] paints a compelling portrait of Alcott, giving us fascinating insights into the creation of Little Women.\u201d \u2014 Charlotte Gordon, Washington Post\n\u201cA love letter written not by a smitten youngster na\u00efve to her beloved's drawbacks but by a mature adult who can recognize complexity and nuance.\u201d \u2014 Ilana Masad, NPR\n\u201cAstute examination of the long life of Little Women.\u201d \u2014 Sophie Gilbert, The Atlantic\n\u201cThoughtful\u2026An adroit consideration of Alcott and her milieu.\u201d \u2014 Meghan Cox Gurdon, Wall Street Journal\n\u201cThis delightful look at a great American classic\u2026tells the book\u2019s history, explores its abiding appeal, and considers its influence on generations of readers and writers since.

        "raw_content": "Posted on January 24, 2012 November 26, 2018 by Benjamin Whitmer\nI was on the side of Blood Meridian, of course. It set me on a ten year sequence of reading in Indian hating and extermination, trying to understand it. It sent me west and turned family vacations into tours of massacre sites. It filled hundreds of pages of notes, and even inspired a class at CU on the subject. It sent me careening off on fresh obsessions: Vietnam fantasies, gunsmithing, American Indian Movement activism, among others.\nNow and then I\u2019d meet a fellow traveler, somebody who\u2019d read Blood Meridian with something like the same level of interest I had. It was akin to meeting a fellow ham radio operator or amateur stamp collector, in both its intensity and inevitable disappointment. But I tried to meet each and every reader with all the hospitality I could, no matter how obviously wrongheaded their approach to the book. Everyone I met, I met with a gift. A gift that I figured provided not only a clue to Blood Meridian, but to a fundamental truth about the creation of books.\nWaylon Jennings\u2019 Honky Tonk Heroes.\nHonky Tonk Heroes is, to my mind, the greatest of the Outlaw Country albums. It was recorded by Waylon Jennings with all the creative control he\u2019d wrested from the Nashville machine, and every song but one was written by Billy Joe Shaver, who, in a just world, would be celebrated as one of our greatest singers and songwriters. The details of the album\u2019s creation are too lengthy to delineate \u2014 and too easy to find on the web to require it \u2014 but they include all the hallmarks of the album\u2019s material: addiction, obsession, the pursuit of freedom to the point of ruination, occasional violence, and, of course, the preoccupation with border crossing that runs like the Rio Grande through Billy Joe Shaver\u2019s lyrics. It is, simply, a masterpiece.\nNot that any one of those reasons is why I give it to every fellow Blood Meridian fan I meet. Nor is it because it\u2019s impossible to read Blood Meridian, or, for that matter, any of McCarthy\u2019s Border Trilogy without seeing all those themes.\nNo, I give it away because of the song, \u201cAin\u2019t No God In Mexico,\u201d from which McCarthy lifts one of Blood Meridian\u2018s most memorable lines, a line that\u2019s echoed in different ways throughout the Border Trilogy. It\u2019s given us by the insane Captain White who has decided to invade Mexico with a gang of Army irregulars. \u201cThere is no government in Mexico,\u201d he tells us. \u201cHell, there\u2019s no God in Mexico.\u201d\nIt\u2019s one of McCarthy\u2019s greatest lifts from country music, though there others. McCarthy is, among many other things, a master of pastiche. As is his progenitor, Faulkner; his, Melville; and his, Shakespeare. As McCarthy put it in a 1992 interview with the New York Times, \u201cThe ugly fact is books are made out of books.\u201d And, as McCarthy knows, country songs, the good ones, they tell stories that run in the blood of those of us who come from European peasant stock. Which brings us to another ugly fact: country songs are made out of country songs. \u201cLet\u2019s settle down and steal each other\u2019s songs,\u201d Kristofferson sings in \u201cDon\u2019t Cuss The Fiddle.\u201d\nSee, authenticity is so bitterly contested and vehemently reaffirmed in literature and country music exactly because both are so willing to repurpose and reuse the creations of that came before. I try to remember that whenever another novelist is accused of plagiarism. If nothing else, it helps keep me from getting too exercised about something that has absolutely no bearing on me at all. After all, it\u2019s the stories that matter, not their authenticity. As a friend of mine, Matteo Gregor, put it recently, \u201cI think I\u2019ve probably spent more days behind bars than Johnny Cash at this point, but I will never be able to express the futility of that time as the great man in black has.\u201d\nThe power and movement of a great country song is something that got driven home to me when working on my latest project, co-writing Charlie Louvin\u2019s memoir, Satan Is Real. The songs that Charlie and his brother Ira first sang were brought over from the old country by their mother. They were tragic songs of life and murder ballads that had been sung in her family for a hundred years or more, passed down generation to generation.\nThe one that moved Charlie the most was \u201cMary of the Wild Moor.\u201d We listened to it together, and he broke down in tears at the cruelty in it. It was a song that was as much a part of him as his nervous system. As much as the gospels sung in the Sacred Harp tradition in the Baptist church where he was raised, and from which he and his brother learned much of their distinctive harmonizing. As much as \u201cKnoxville Girl,\u201d a murder ballad the Louvin Brothers also learned from their mother, that dates all the way back to the Elizabethan era. Charlie couldn\u2019t escape that one even when he wanted to. It followed him his whole life. And we won\u2019t even talk about \u201cWreck on the Highway\u201d (And not the Springsteen song, though it\u2019s a hell of an example of repurposing in its own right).\nI was asked recently in an interview why I decided to work with Charlie on his memoir. I\u2019m a novelist, not a music critic, and I wasn\u2019t an intuitive choice for the project, not by any stretch of the imagination. I didn\u2019t answer the question very well \u2014 I don\u2019t answer any question well that I don\u2019t have time to think about for awhile \u2014 but the answer is for the same reason I give Honky Tonk Heroes to every McCarthy fan I meet. Because it\u2019s important to understand how those stories work \u2014 the stories in country songs that become the stories in us \u2014 and how they get used. My purely selfish reason for helping Charlie on his memoir was that I hoped to understand how stories work better. And I think I do.\nPrevious PostPrevious Charlie Adlard Interview \u2013 Portrait of the Artist as a Walking Dead Man\nNext PostNext Cock Fisting Commercialism \u2013 Ray Banks Guest Blog",

        "raw_content": "How to fix an antique metal bridge: DVD on Historic Bridge Restoration by Julie Bowers\nAuthor\u2019s Note: This article serves as a twofold function: 1. It is part of a multiple series on the Historic Bridge Conference, which took place last weekend (21-23 September) in Indiana, where the documentary was shown, and 2. This is the Bridgehunter\u2019s Chronicles\u2019 Book of the Month, but in a form of a DVD and documentary. An interview with Julie Bowers on historic bridge preservation was conducted earlier this year and can be viewed by clicking here.\nThere seems to be a belief from many people that historic metal truss bridges cannot be restored because the metal used for the structure has outlived its usefulness, and that restoration and/or relocation is either too expensive, outdated, or is not heard of. The last part was in connection with a comment made by a congresswoman in Ohio in May of this year.\nLittle do these critics realize is that restoration exists for metal truss bridges, and in the case of welding, the profession is making a comeback, as there is an increase in interest in this sort of work. And for the remaining truss bridges that are still standing in the country, this may be a blessing that could buck the trend of eliminating this truss type, especially after the I-35W Bridge Disaster of 2007 in Minneapolis, Minnesota (USA).\nUsing the Piano Bridge in Texas and the McIntyre Bowstring Arch Bridge in Iowa and with the support of songs by The Grateful Dead, Julie Bowers of Workin Bridges, a non-profit organization that deals with historic bridge restoration, produced a documentary on historic bridge restoration, bringing a profession back from the dead and, with step-by-step demonstrations and easy to explain concepts by the professionals, providing educational opportunities for welders, historians, agencies, bridge enthusiasts and people interested on how to restore a historic bridge.\nMcIntyre Bowstring Arch Bridge in Poweshiek County, Iowa before ist destruction due to flooding in 2010. The parts were salvaged and transported to Delaware. Photo courtesy of Julie Bowers\nThe DVD starts with the McIntyre Bridge before and after the flood that destroyed the structure in August 2010 with the question of what to do with the structure. While Workin Bridges was in its infancy when this occurred, the organization\u2019s biggest break came with the request from the people in Fayette County, Texas to restore the pin-connected Pratt through truss bridge, built in 1885 by the King Bridge Company of Cleveland, Ohio. Together with the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) the restoration process started, first by taking the truss bridge off its original foundations, followed by taking it apart, putting rivets on the bridge, using heat to straighten out the eye bars, and doing other work with the parts, before putting the truss bridge together and placing it back on new foundations. The step-by-step process was filmed and photographed, with experts demonstrating to the viewer how these processes work, thus encouraging people to at least look at how restoration works, but with a long range goal of taking up the profession. Welding is an old technology that was developed in the 1800s, went into hibernation for many decades, but is making a comeback in a new form, which is restoring historic places made of metal. Yet for many people, the profession is new and exciting, but should be taken seriously, as it takes time and effort to form and reform structural parts to make a building or bridge look just like new.\nPiano Bridge in Texas: The bridge lift from its foundations. Photo courtesy of Julie Bowers\nHere are some interesting facts about welding that were in the film and are worth noting:\nRivets are more effective than nuts and bolts in a way that they keep the metals intact and ensure that rust and weather extremities do not cause the metal parts to crack. One of the cracked parts discovered on the Piano Bridge led to the structure\u2019s closing and the quest for someone to come and fix it.\nHeat stripping is a process of placing the torch on a section of metal, straightening it out with clamps.\nThe Piano Bridge is made of wrought iron, which has a low heating temperature. Therefore, one needs to be careful not to have heat on a section of metal for a long time or else the material falls apart like wood. This contributed to many structures failing during the Great Chicago Fire on 3 October, 1871, which destroyed 80% of the entire city.\nSteel can be welded to wrought iron to ensure its stability for many years, despite claims that it can be bent to a point where it breaks.\nMost interesting fact: rehabilitating historic bridges means adding parts to support the structure. It does not mean restoration, as in taking apart and reassembling the structure.\nWhile the welding process was progressing on the Piano Bridge, there were discussions about historic bridges and their fate, especially in connection with the I-35W Bridge Disaster. While many agencies have striven to have certain bridge types eliminated, as well as those that are structurally deficient, including those in Pennsylvania, Minnesota, Wisconsin and Ohio, for example, other agencies, like TxDOT have worked to find ways to restore historic bridges and/or relocate them for reuse if deemed necessary. It is part of a two-way approach where the costs are analyzed and engineering thought is put in to determine not whether a historic bridge can be restored but how. John Barton of TxDOT denounces the knee-jerk approach to historic bridge replacement, as it has happened in many places, but claims that engineering is a way to address the variables, both systematically and methodologically and should be taken seriously.\nPiano Bridge in Texas after its restoration. Photo courtesy of Workin Bridges\nThe film ends with some example bridges that have either been restored, like the State Street Bridge in Bridgeport, Michigan, or are targets for restoration efforts, like the Long Shoals Bridge in Kansas, the Cascade Bridge in Iowa, and the Enochs Knob Bridge in Missouri, the last two of which are being scheduled for demolition, although Workin Bridges is working to claim the Cascade Bridge to be restored. The Bridgehunter\u2019s Chronicles will have that article for you as soon as the series on the Historic Bridge Conference in Indiana is finished. But it shows how each bridge could be restored thanks to the demonstrations that were presented in the film.\nThere are many demonstrations on welding techniques that are either available online or through seminars, like the annual welding seminar offered by Vern Mesler in Michigan. The DVD takes you up close to see how historic bridges can be restored through welding techniques that exist. It provides people with a chance to see how the process works and has the dos and don\u2019ts to welding, let alone to restoring a historic bridge. Furthermore it advocates the need to do restoration work instead of rehabilitation, setting the standards very high for reasons of safety and integrity, while at the same time, restoring the bridge is more cost effective than rehabilitation or replacement.\nThe video is 47 minutes long and from a teacher\u2019s point of view, if you have a class of students of civil engineering, conservation and restoration or even architecture, it is recommended that they see the film to provide them with a glimpse of the work and to spark their interest in possibly joining the profession, which has been growing since 2008. Chances are likely that at least a quarter of the students in the classroom will be interested in the work. And even if no one is interested in the profession and is only curious about how a bridge is restored, the content of the film is easy to understand and the demonstrations are up front and not too technical. For agencies and politicians who advocate bridge replacement, the DVD provides them with an alternative to demolition, convincing them that restoration is more cost effective and will prolong the life of a bridge for many decades to come.\nHistoric Paper Mill Bridge in Newcastle, Delaware.\nI would like to end this review with a food for thought involving a question that I posed to many of my students: suppose you have a 120 year old truss bridge that is due for replacement and you have the following choices, which one would you take:\nReplace the bridge with a concrete structure\nReplace the bridge but leave the truss bridge in tact\nRehabilitate the truss bridge and leave it open to traffic?\nKeep in mind the cost analysis for each option, the resources that are available, but most importantly, the interest of the people and their association with the structure. Without the interest, the truss bridge is history. Yet if the interest in saving the bridge is high, then one should look at the resources available and in particular, listen to the public and their suggestions. Chances are one of them may have seen this DVD and knows what he/she is talking about.\nThe DVD can also be viewed on YouTube, which you can watch below:\nBy Bridgehunter's Chroniclesin Book of the Month, Bridge Preservation, Bridge Profile USA, Interesting Bridge Facts, News, Practices 26.

All photos in this article are courtesy of Tony Dillon\nWhat does it really take to save a historic bridge? Many groups created to save a precious piece of history have been creative in garnering funding and resources to restore and reopen the structure for recreational purposes. Apart from the traditional fundraising and cooperation between the private and public sectors, some have done silent auctions, marathons, music concerts, bike tours, pie sales and even bridge festivals, the last one of which is common in big cities in the US and places in Europe.\nBut what about a road rally? A road rally is basically a tour of the area by a caravan of cars, with a gathering at the end of the rally. One can find that with the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally in Sturgis, South Dakota, which is held every July, or the Elephant Rally in Germany, where it honors the Zuendapp Motorcycle, produced by the Germany army during World War II and is famous for its green color. In the case of this rally, it deals with a famous bridge in an Indiana county that is a focus of efforts to restore it for recreational use.\nSide view of the two spans\nThe Cedar Grove Bridge, spanning the Whitewater River south of Cedar Grove (located 20 kilometers southeast of Brookville) in Franklin County is a rare gem in southeastern Indiana. Built in 1914 by the Indiana Bridge Company of Muncie, the two-span riveted Camelback truss through truss bridge is one of a handful of bridges left in a state which prides itself on historic bridge preservation. The bridge is 368 feet long with each span being 181 feet; the width is 17 feet. Since the early 1990s, both the bridge and the road (old state highway 1) were a focus of a dispute between the Indiana DOT and Franklin County over who claims one of the two, with the former refusing to fix the bridge before handing it over, as demanded by the latter. The DOT had wanted to remove the bridge and went even as far as applying at the state department of historic preservation, and this despite the growth of tourism in the region.\nEnter the group Friends of the Cedar Grove Bridge. For the past 10 months, the organization led by Satolli Galssmeyer, has worked together with both the county and the state in claiming ownership of the bridge, with support from Indiana Landmarks and the Whitewater Canal Scenic Byway Group. According to latest reports, the ownership is appearing to go to the group, which would be a huge advantage for the people of Cedar Grove, Franklin County and the region which prides itself in the numerous historic bridges that exist. The problem comes with funding and resources, which are needed to fix up the bridge so that it can be reopened for recreational purposes. This is when the road rally comes in handy.\nInside the bridge. Note that new decking and new paint may be part of the restoration package\nOn October 6, the event will come to Franklin County, starting at 10:00 am at Harrison High School in Harrison, Ohio. It will feature 60 miles of back roads, scavenger hunting and fact collecting, which will be a treat for family and friends. The Rally will end at the bridge in Cedar Grove where a large gathering is expected. Cost for entering the rally is $35 per car and team if pre-registered, $45 on the day of the event, when registration is at 9:00 am. The goal of the rally is to raise $100 per team, which would help a great deal for purchasing and restoring one of the finest faces of Cedar Grove.\nFor more information on the event, please contact Satolli Glassmeyer, using the details below. Should the rally be successful, it will not only be a blessing for the people of Cedar Grove and the region, who have find memories of the bridge and would like to keep it for future use, but it will also be used as a tool for fundraising efforts for other bridges in the US and Europe that are historically significant and culturally valuable but are threatened with demolition if no one wants to claim it and reuse it.\nSatolli Glassmeyer:\ne-mail: info@scenicroadrallies.com\nwebsite: www.SCENICROADRALLIES.com\nwww.SCENICROADTOURS.com\nBy Bridgehunter's Chroniclesin Bridge Profile USA, FYI Bridge Newsflash, News 25.

When I travel home to southwestern Minnesota from the Twin Cities (which is my preferred destination for all German-American flights), I usually take a more scenic route, which is along the Mississippi River and through parts of southeastern Minnesota, passing through Northfield and Fairibault. The area is filled with a variety of landscapes to choose from, from hilly to flat all in the span of 30 miles. There are numerous towns and villages to see, including Hampton and New Trier, which is rich with history and heritage. But there is another reason for traveling through the area, to pay homage to a blue beauty over the Ole Miss.\nThe Hastings High Bridge is one of my most favorite historic bridges in the state of Minnesota. Built in 1951 by Sverdrup and Parcel, the same company that built the first I-35W Bridge in Minneapolis, this through arch/truss bridge is the only one of its kind in the state and one of a handful of bridges of its kind remaining in the US. It is one of the longest in the Upper Mississippi River Valley, at 1857 feet (the arch span being 600 feet) and is one of the towering figures of the City of Hastings.\nPhoto courtesy of Minnesota Historical Society via wikipedia. Link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Hastings_Spiral_Bridge.jpg\nThe bridge also has a deep history which makes it one of the icons of the city of 18,000. It was here that the first bridge with a spiral approach was built in 1895. Designed and built by the Wisconsin Bridge and Iron Works Company (WisBI), the original Hastings Spiral Bridge featured a Parker through truss bridge as the main span followed by two wooden and steel trestle approaches. Because a high bridge was needed to clear the height clearance for ships and barges to pass through, an engineer at WisBI constructed a spiral approach in the shape of a curly Q on the south end of the bridge, providing drivers with a chance to make an easy descent into the historic business district. The bridge became a treat for the city of Hastings and it became a poster boy for many engineers to design bridges with this spiral approach. This includes Friedrich Voss, who adopted this unique approach design for the railroad viaduct in Rendsburg, Germany, which was built in 1913 and features a spiral approach on the north end made of a combination of a grade, arch bridges over streets and steel trestles slicing through the city before approaching the main span- a cantilever through truss with a transporter underneath, spanning the Baltic-North Sea Canal. It is still in service today and is the only one of its kind in the world. Even today, these bridges were being built, big or small, and regardless of what they carry for vehicles and people, like the pedestrian bridge in Bad Homburg vor der Hoehe, near Frankfurt/Main in the German state of Hesse.\nPedestrian Bridge at Bad Homburg near Frankfurt/Main. Photo taken in February 2008\nSpiral approach of the Rendsburg High Bridge. Photo taken in April 2011\nMain span of Rendsburg High Bridge. Photo taken in April 2011\nSadly, the bridge showed sign of wear and tear and in 1951, it was replaced with the current structure. The future of the Spiral Bridge was in doubt as many people wanted to keep this historic icon, yet despite the split decision, a pocket vote on the part of Hastings\u2019 mayor sealed the structure\u2019s fate, and the bridge was brought down by explosives, as seen in the video here. As a consolation, one of the piers was preserved as a historical marker. However, a replica of the bridge was built in 2005, using a Thacher through truss bridge imported from Lac Qui Parle County. It is now at the Little Log House Pioneer Village, located south of Hastings.\nNow the fate of the second bridge seems to be sealed. After 61 years in service, the bridge is being replaced by a tied arch bridge, which is supposed to be the longest in the western Hemisphere. Like the Spiral Bridge, the High Bridge showed signs of wear and tear, caused by increase in traffic combined with weather extremities. Even salt used for deicing the roadway has eaten away at the structure to a point where the cost for rehabilitation would be exorbitant. There are many who believe that it is not necessary for a new bridge to be built at the site of the present one. Yet the question is where should the new bridge have been built without having a negative impact on the city\u2019s commerce? That question is difficult to answer and probably will not be presented until after the 1951 structure comes down in 2013.\nYet the people in Hastings and the surrounding area welcome the change as many are afraid that the structure will collapse. Little do they realize is they are losing another important icon, which could have been saved, had there been ways to rehabilitate it years earlier and most importantly, maintained it. The bridge\u2019s heavy steel used for the structure provided truckers and commuters with a sense of security that it was meant to last for 100 years, as is the case for many railroad truss bridges. Yet with as much traffic as US Hwy. 61 carries through Hastings, maintaining it would mean painting the bridge biannually at least, as it is seen with the maintenance on the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco. The costs would be high and with the current economic problems we are facing, it would have been impossible to keep up the maintenance on the bridge. But one should expect to dole out the funds for the new bridge as well, as it will need just as much tender loving care as the first two crossings.\nWe have seen many of Minnesota\u2019s historic relicts (bridge\u2019s included) become part of the history books, as seen in Jack El Hai\u2019s Lost Minnesota, published in 2005. I\u2019m sure that a second volume is in the making and that this bridge will be in there with others that have fallen victim of modernization, including its neighboring bridge to the north at Inver Grove Heights. Even though the new bridge will present a sleek design made to entice the modernists and passers-by, many people in Hastings as well as those with connections with the High Bridge will remind them of the icon that will be soon by history. It is unclear whether this bridge will last as long as the first two, but it will take time for the people of Hastings to adapt to the new bridge.\nWhile I\u2019ll probably visit the bridge on my next USA trip in 2013, I will always think of the Blue Beauty over the Ole Miss. And therefore, as a tribute to one of the finest landmark bridges, I\u2019ve enclosed a gallery of bridge photos for you to enjoy, which you can click here to view. A video of the trip across the bridge can be seen here.\nSide view taken from the city park. Photo taken in Dec. 2007\nOblique view.

Courtesy of Roni Browne Katz\nHere\u2019s a pop quiz to start off the article: When was the Revolutionary War in the United States? When did George Washington cross the Delaware River and in which New Jersey city did a pivotal battle take place? And lastly, which areas did Washington\u2019s troops march through before that particular battle took place? The answers you\u2019ll find in bold and cursive print.\nIn the past 15 years and even more so since the Minneapolis Bridge disaster of 2007, there has been an increase in tendency for politicians and local government agencies to make haste in replacing historic bridges, despite their historical significance and the pleas of the local people to restore it for future use. Many of these people either have little or no expertise in historic preservation policies that exist, let alone have insufficient knowledge in the environmental impacts that take place when replacing a historic bridge in contrast to restoring it. In worst case scenario, debates over the future of the historic bridge divide the communities up by taking sides on the issue. In some cases, (emergency) elections to replace candidates are carried out using the historic bridge as a political toy to ensure that either one side or the other has it their own way.\nThe Bear Tavern Bridge over Jacob\u2019s Creek in Hopewell Township in western New Jersey represents the crassest example of how a place of historic interest can divide up a community, let alone state for various reasons, four of which are presented here in this article:\nFirst fact: The debate involves not only the historic bridge, but also a natural area with high historical value. The bridge itself was built in 1882 by the King Bridge Company of Cleveland, Ohio, during the era of its founder, Zenas King. It is the oldest bridge built in Mercer County and one whose truss design differs from others that were built at that time. It features a Pratt half-hip through truss design. A half-hip means that the outermost panels (the end post and first vertical beam) are half as long as the remaining panels on the bridge, thus having a trapezoidal design with the end posts having a 60\u00b0 angle instead of 45\u00b0. These were most common with pony truss bridges as they were used for short crossings. For a through truss bridge, it was seldom used, and the Bear Tavern is one of the last remaining bridges left in the country that has this design. The portal bracing of the bridge was one of the first built and would start a trend where Town lattice portals were phased out in favor of beam portals as well as those using alphabets, such as the famous A-frame portal found on truss bridges built between 1890 and 1930. The bridge was one of a handful of bridges that survived the onslaught of Hurricane Irene last summer, despite being closed to traffic since September 2009.\nThe natural surrounding is the site of the famous march led by George Washington, who together with General Knox and Lt. James Monroe, directed an army of 2,400 soldiers to the battle of Trenton on 26 December, 1776, five months after the Declaration of Independence of 4 July, 1776 and a year and a half after the war started in April 1775. The army crossed the Delaware River on the night of the 25-26 December, 1776, defeated the Hessian soldiers at Trenton before crossing the Delaware River after the battle. The army would eventually capture Trenton on 2 January, 1777 and went on to defeat the English troops at Princeton. The battle of Trenton was the turning point of the war, as the Americans won the war six years later on 3 September, 1783. There was a trail named after the famous battle known as Victory Trail but the section near Bear Tavern is the last natural trail left. Residents fear that a new bridge would be an eye sore to the natural area, which would be altered beyond recognition. Yet the pleas have fallen on deaf ears of county commissioners, who have wanted a new crossing and new alignment for a long time\u2026.\nSecond fact: According to the organization wanting to save the Bear Tavern Bridge and the natural portion of Victory Trail, the drive for a new bridge and alignment has been on the minds of Mercer County for 82 years! That means the first proposal for a new bridge was introduced in 1930, even though the bridge was 48 years old and still serviceable at that time. In the many years that the author has been busying himself with the topic of bridges (25 years to be exact), there never has been such a long debate over the future of a historic bridge. In fact the average amount of time needed to discuss the need for a new bridge, carry out the surveys needed and find alternatives to replacing the historic bridge targeted for replacement is approximately 5 years. While there has been no real reason why the drive for a new bridge has dragged on for such a long time, it is assumed that officials wanted to convert a T-intersection into one where the road curves to the bridge with a right side turn-off onto a street prior to entering the crossing. The Bear Tavern Bridge\u2019s main handicap is its vertical clearance of approximately 12-13 feet, but the bridge is wide enough to accommodate two lanes of traffic, yet the county feels that a new bridge would bring more traffic and commerce to the Bear Tavern area, something the people of the area are against, and have been since 1930.\nThird fact: A lot of political tactics and activities deemed illegal were carried out mostly by those favoring a new bridge as a way of swaying the public towards a new bridge. This includes the disregard of environmental impact surveys, which includes safely removing lead from the truss through sandblasting. There were reports of flakes of paint landing into Jacob\u2019s Creek containing high amounts of lead and possibly arsenic. While the removal of paint was important for removing the truss span, it was not done in a safe manner with fears that chemicals would invade the ground water. But this was one of many incidences that occurred during the entire debate; especially in the five years prior to the bridge\u2019s removal last year in October 2011. The debate sparked the drive for greed, lies and misinformation on the part of those wanting to replace the bridge, resulting in mistrust among the community. Elections in 2010 did not help the situation as the officials elected were running a choreographed line directed by the proponents of the new bridge. Furthermore, the county tried successfully to overrun the state\u2019s recommendation of restoring the bridge instead of cooperating, resulting in the question of how much authority the county should have in comparison to the state. This includes ignoring the suggestions made by the state historical society to restore the bridge because of its conditions. In the last proposal to introduce the new crossing in July 2012, the state department of transportation stepped aside from the issue for unknown reasons.\nFourth fact: The question of what to do with the bridge still remains to be seen. News reports in October 2011 claim that the bridge will be refurbished and re-erected on site, yet the county recently has given the green light for a 200 foot concrete bridge on a new alignment and with a 60 foot retaining wall, which will forever alter the Victory Trail site beyond recognition. This puts the future of the bridge in doubt, for even though it sits in storage waiting to be restored and rebuilt, the question is whether it makes sense from this point on. And if it does make sense to restore it and rebuild it, where would the bridge be rebuilt? After all, its old place will be taken over by a hunk of concrete and its natural relationship with nature and history has been severed permanently. The bridge may have a new life elsewhere, but for many in the Bear Tavern area, it will always be associated with George Washington\u2019s march on Trenton and how it changed the dynamics of the war for independence.\nI would like to close this article with a comment made by one of the Bear Tavern residents, who favored the replacement of the bridge: \u201cIn five years, we will have forgotten about the whole thing.\u201d We may have forgotten a lot of our own history we learned in high school, which is a cardinal sin in itself. It is a capital sin to forget about the history of our own backyard. For Bear Tavern Bridge, to forget the bridge would mean to be ignorant of the community\u2019s own past, which eventually comes back with a vengeance many years from now, even if the truss bridge has a life elsewhere. But the crime that will leave scars on the face of history is how the region will be altered thanks to the people who spent 82 years to make it happen. These scars will remain for many generations to come and will be talked about in private circles and elsewhere.\nMore information about the Bear Tavern Bridge can be seen here, including contact information in case you have any questions or suggestions: http://www.facebook.com/groups/146045364632/ Photos of the bridge taken by many members of the Bear Tavern Bridge group can be seen here.\nBy Bridgehunter's Chroniclesin Bridge Profile USA, News 20.

Many people have a tendency of considering bridges, like the one above to be a covered bridge. Yet the definition of a covered bridge is different. A covered bridge is a truss bridge that is covered by siding and most of the time, a gabled roof. There are many examples of covered bridges that exist in the US and Europe, including the Marysville Covered Bridge, located at a park near Knoxville, Iowa.\nBut going back to this mystery bridge, the bridge made of wood is considered plainly a wooden truss bridge, whose wooden beams are connected with nuts and bolts but are neither pin-connected, welded nor riveted. There were numerous wooden truss bridges that were built during the second half of the 1800s and fewer that were built between 1900 and 1960. There are only a handful of these bridges that exist in the US for wood has the shortest lifespan of any bridges made of other materials, and is one with the highest maintenance- it needs to be varnished and painted regularly to ensure that they last just as long as bridges made of iron and/or steel.\nThe mystery bridge featured here is located in eastern California, spanning the Middle Yuba River between the Milton Reservoir and dam and the Jackson Reservoir, just 500 feet west of Heness Pass Road. The bridge features three spans of a double-intersecting Warren pony truss (shaped in a Howe lattice design) made of wood. Judging by its appearance in the pictures presented below, the wooden truss bridge features both riveted connections (on the top chords) and bolted connections, where intersecting beams are connected with bolts and nuts that were drilled into the wood. The bridge was discovered by Aimee Stubbs while on a camping/ motorcycle trip in 2011 only to revisit the bridge again this past summer.\nThe bridge appears to have seen better days as it partially collapsed some time ago (although it not pinpointed as to when it happened), and only one of the truss spans is still standing. Since it served a dirt road located not far from the county road, the bridge and road seemed to have been abandoned, with nature taking its course on both. To reach the bridge via dirt road would require walking to the structure, which is challenging given the landscape where the bridge is located. According to Stubbs, the Middle Yuba River is infamous for its recurring floods, causing damage and erosion to the bridge and the road. Yet there is no information on the bridge\u2019s history that was found with the exception of the fact that the river separates both Sierra and Nevada Counties, two counties that were created in 1851-2 after seceding from Yuba County.\nMs. Stubbs has been researching this bridge since finding it for the first time and needs your help. With three spans, this bridge is one of the rarest in the country, if not the world. Yet its recent demise due to its collapse makes it even more important to find information on the structure so that people are aware of its existence (or at least its partial existence). If you have any information pertaining to the bridge, please contact her using the following information below. The Bridgehunter\u2019s Chronicles will keep you posted as soon as information comes to light on this unique structure. If you know of another bridge that is similar to the one shown here and still exists today, please contact Jason D. Smith using the contact details below as well. That information will be added as well.\nThe Bridgehunter connects the past with the future through research and preservation of historic bridges in the present.\nAimee Stubbs: stubbs95@hotmail.com\nJason D.

To view part I, please click here.\nAfter going through some useful tips on info-tracking a historic bridge (similar to that of genealogical research), part II looks at a pair of success stories of how a historic bridge\u2019s life was tracked down through research. Both historic bridges mentioned here were relocated at least once, yet thanks to the research conducted by historians and members of the state agencies, they were able to determine the origin of the bridge\u2019s history, tracing its life from start to present. One of the bridges is now enjoying its third life in service, even though it was close to becoming a pile of scrap metal, whereas the other no longer exists as attempts to relocate it a third time failed due to a tragedy. In either case, they are both worth mentioning and serving as poster boys for other bridges, whose lifespan remains to be researched.\nHansen\u2019s Ford Bridge at Ellingson Bridge Road prior to its failed relocation attempt.

Destroyed during a relocation attempt in 1994 and later scrapped.\nAlso known as Ellingson Bridge due to its proximity to the family farmstead, the Hansen\u2019s Ford Bridge was one of only a handful of bridges that featured two spans of a Whipple through truss bridge. The portal bracing is a textbook resemblance of the one used by the Wrought Iron Bridge Company in Canton, Ohio, the one that built the bridge. Research done by the late James Hippen of Luther College in Decorah, Iowa, and later followed up by other pontists (including yours truly) revealed that the bridge was relocated once in its lifetime. It was known as the Pierce Bridge and was originally constructed in 1878 over the Cedar River west of Osage in Mitchell County. It was one of three bridges that served the county seat. When officials wanted to grade the main highway (now known as Iowa Hwy. 9) and with that build a wider bridge, the bridge was dismantled and transported three counties over towards the east, while a new bridge was built in its place. The truss spans were constructed over the Upper Iowa River east of the county border with neighboring Winneshiek County, replacing a wooden trestle bridge. This all happened in 1939. Apart from newspaper articles and post cards, like this one, the key evidence proving its relocation was found in the blue print provided by the Allamakee County Highway Department.\nSadly though attempts to relocate the bridge for the second time failed. The bridge was supposed to be given over to a private group to be erected over the Yellow River in the southern part of the county, yet as the spans were being hoisted from the river, they fell apart and collapsed. The decision was made to scrap the bridge. It is unknown what caused the disaster, but it is assumed that age combined with lack of maintenance may have played a role in the failed attempt to give the bridge a new life off the public road system.\nSilverdale Bridge shortly before being hoisted onto the foundations above Manning Avenue.

In particular, the question that was on the minds of personnel at the Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT) was where it originated from and who built the bridge?\nThe bridge was built in 1877, using wrought iron instead of steel. The evidence was through a laboratory study conducted in 2002. Yet visual studies concluded that the bridge was first built over Sauk Lake in Sauk Centre, in Stearns County. This was based on collaboration between MnDOT, the Historical Society in Sauk Centre and locals affiliated with the bridge. While a plaque was located on the top part of the portal bracing, up until now, it has not been identified as to who constructed the bridge, let alone whether the plaque still exists or if it has long since been destroyed. It is unknown whether any information from newspapers as to who built it would have helped.\nThe bridge\u2019s life almost came to an untimely end, when it was replaced in 1935 with a steel stringer bridge and the truss bridge was relocated to a storage yard. Interestingly enough, the stringer span survived only 65 years before being replaced with a concrete span, which still serves main traffic today. It was salvaged two years later and was relocated over 500 kilometers northeast to Koochiching County in northern Minnesota. After replacing the strut bracings with one consisting of an X-laced strut bracings with 45\u00b0 heels and trimming the curved heel bracings off the bridge\u2019s portals, the truss bridge was re-erected over the Little Fork River between the villages of Rauch and Silverdale, serving Minnesota Hwy. 65. The portal bracings were replaced in 1964 after a truck damaged the northern entrance. Upon its removal from the highway system in 2008, the bridge remained in tact with the portal bracings that were a sixth of its height. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1998 and when it was scheduled to be replaced, MnDOT placed the bridge on the \u201cmost valuable historic bridge to preserve\u201d list with hopes that someone will take the bridge and use it for recreational purposes. Fortunately, Washington County stepped up to purchase the bridge to be used as part of the Gateway Trail, connecting Mahtomedi and Stillwater. The bridge was dismantled and transported to the Manning Avenue site, where it was refurbished and reassembled. Portal bracings resemble the ones used at Sauk Centre and at the Little Fork crossing prior to 1964. Before it was erected over Manning Avenue, it was painted black. Governmental shutdown in July 2011 delayed the opening of the bridge by six months. But since November 2011, the bridge has been serving the bike trail, its third life but one that will last another 150+ years if maintained properly and if the story of how the bridge was built, transported and rebuilt, let alone how its history was researched, is passed down to the next generations.\nThe bridge while serving main traffic in Sauk Centre.

US Hwy. 65, which used to run through Minneapolis and St. Paul from its southern terminus of the state of Louisiana, now terminates in Albert Lea, Minnesota.

September 2012 1,503 Words1 Comment\nTracking Down a Bridge\u2019s History Part I: Overview\nChimney Rock Bridge in Winneshiek County, Iowa. Photo taken in September 2009\nResearching a historic bridge is like doing genealogical research. You track down your family history, finding out where you originated from, where members of your extended family are located and finding ways to connect with them. One can find out how many (first, second, third, \u2026.) cousins you really have (including the ones that are once or twice removed), while at the same time, travel to some places where your extended parts of your family once resided. My aunt in Minnesota has done a lot of research into my father\u2019s side of family for about two decades, finding out that several branches of the family once resided in Europe and parts of Africa, including areas in the north and western parts of Germany, like Bingen and Marburg (north of Frankfurt in the state of Hesse) and Oldenburg (both in Schleswig-Holstein and Lower Saxony.) My uncle on my mother\u2019s side of the family managed to trace down the origins of the family, which was in northern Schleswig-Holstein in the village of Stein (near Kiel), but had branches of the family residing in the northwestern part of Germany and in particular, in North Rhein-Westphalia.\nResearching a historic bridge is similar to doing genealogical research in many ways. While one can track down the history of the bridge builders, as Alan King Sloan has done with the history of Zenas King and the King Bridge Company in Ohio, and Fred Quivik has done with the Hewett Family, Commodore Jones and Alexander Bayne, who created the Minneapolis bridge building empire in the early 1900s, it is also possible to track down historic bridges, based on the question of where they originated from. The reason I posed this question is simple: many historic bridges- in particular, truss bridges- were moved around from place to place. This concept was introduced in the late 1890s but was carried out extensively beginning in the 1920s and 30s as part of cost-cutting measures carried out by local communities and counties. Constructing brand new bridges were too expensive because of the scarcity of materials, like steel, resulting in the increase in prices. Other materials, like wood, were prone to weather extremities, resulting in dry rot and fungi that eat away at the wood. Furthermore they cannot resist floods and ice jams as well as those made of other materials. Relocating truss bridges is easy for they can be dismantled, transported to their destination and reassembled on site, before starting its next life serving a new round of traffic going across it.\nOne of the more well documented bridges in the US: The Three Sister Bridges in Pittsburgh over the Allegheny River. Named in honor of Roberto Clemente, Andy Warhol and Rachel Carson. All built in 1926. Photo taken in August 2010\nSpeaking from personal experience, tracking down the history of a bridge can be blessing if the structure had its service life in one place. However, when it is relocated from place to place, it can be a curse, for once the structure is moved out of the county, chances are most likely that the records are lost forever, either intentionally or through other factors. That is why it is important that when tracing down a bridge\u2019s history, you have to have a fond knowledge of history and geography, a good memory and ability to do the math and put the pieces of the puzzle together, and most of all, the passion to do this research and solve the case. While the first few factors can be learned, if you do not have the passion for this type of structural genealogical research, then it will not be fun at all. I have compiled a few simple steps that will help you trace the bridge\u2019s history starting from when and where it was first built, followed by the question of if and how many times it was relocated, all the way up to whether it still serves traffic or was replaced through modernization with the structure being scrapped or recycled for the next modern bridge to be built.\nStep 1: Check out the records that are on file through state and county agencies: Most agencies will have bridge files (also known as inspection reports) available based on the bridge numbering system that was adopted and used for inspection and research purposes. 99% of the time, each file will have a photo of the structure as well as the date of construction. Nine times out of ten, there will be records and photos of the previous structures- the ones that had previously served traffic before they were replaced. There are two issues that should be taken into account: 1. Not all bridges have records dating back to when it was originally built, let alone when it was relocated. In other words, missing information. That means if there is a bridge built in the 1950s, even though the design was no longer used on the roadways at that time, chances are that the bridge was imported from another region. A classic example of a bridge that falls into that category is the Chimney Rock Bridge in Winneshiek County, Iowa. Records showed it being relocated to its present site in 1952, yet the bridge was originally built in 1906 by the Continental Bridge Company in Chicago. More information can be found here through an essay written in 2007. In some cases, even in state historic bridge inventories, there are estimated dates of construction even though in all reality, the bridge existed before that date. In some cases if there is no further evidence to support the construction date, you have to refer to other sources of information to determine whether the date is correct and if not, when exactly it was built and where. The second issue is the fact that not all records of structures that were replaced with present structures are kept on file. Some agencies prefer to discard the files once the replacement bridge is open to traffic. The fortunate part is the fact that in the past 35 years, state and county agencies have done a better job of keeping these files available to the public, allowing people to access them for their own purposes. Yet up to the early 1970s, the practice of eliminating old records was well-known for there was little interest in preserving historic bridges at that time. The exception to the rule: areas that were not only heavily populated with historic bridges but also had detailed records of their history, like the cities of Chicago, Pittsburgh, Minneapolis-St. Paul and New York City, for example. Regardless of how detailed the information is, bridge files provided by the state and local governments is the starting point for your research.\nSteps 2 and 3: The next two steps are the most time consuming tasks but also crucial ones. You need to look through the newspapers, court records and other documents to determine the following: 1. Whether the data provided on the bridge files is correct, 2. If the bridge is imported from another region, where exactly did it come from, 3. How was the bridge constructed and 4. If the location of the bridge matches that of what is in the bridge files you received from the agencies. For this, you need to look through as much materials as they are available, especially newspapers, as many libraries and museums have them in archives. You need to plan in days, if not weeks to trace through the archives of one or two newspapers serving one community or region. Sometimes, you have to read through the archived papers twice or three times to make sure the information is accurate. In the case that the bridge is imported from outside, travel may be required if the place of origin is determined. The same procedure applies to other documents, such as city and county records, bridge company records, as well as records from transportation entities, such as railroad companies, etc. One should have a series of maps available to trace the location of the bridge; especially if a bridge was imported from outside, it is important to pinpoint not only its location in the present, but also in the past, regardless of how many times it was relocated. There are many examples of historic bridges that were relocated more than once but research was needed to track down its history, namely through newspapers and maps. The most recent was the Mulberry Creek Bridge, which the Bridgehunter\u2019s Chronicles wrote an article about recently. You can view the article here.\nDurrow Road Bridge in Linn County, Iowa. Photo taken in August 2011\nStep 4: Also useful are postcards and oral sources. Postcards with pictures and images of historic bridges can help a person fit the description with the bridge being researched, even though they can become blurry and difficult to see with age. Oral resources in the form of people associated with building the bridge as well as residents living near the bridge can help the researcher by providing some facts about the building of the bridge and its association with the area. It can be an interesting experience when they tell some stories that can be useful for the project. This was the case during a visit at the Durrow Road Bridge in Linn County, Iowa in August 2011, when I found that the 1920s truss bridge was brought in to replace a wooden stringer bridge in 1949 and was named after a century old farmstead located just 300 feet away. The bridge still serves traffic and has been well maintained.\nStep 5: Once you have all the information gathered and exhausted all your resources for gas, travel and copies, you can start putting the information together in chronological order from the time the bridge was constructed for the very first time all the way to the present, putting in the right order the time and place where the bridge was relocated, and adding stories to help fill out the bridge\u2019s history. One will find the story of a bridge\u2019s life more interesting as the pieces of the puzzle come together.\nSouth River Bridge in Warren County. Photo taken in August 2011. This is one of many bridges that was built in the 1950s but is rich in information through records and newspaper articles.\nShould you run into problems with putting the pieces together, sometimes it is useful to spread the word through media sources. The Bridgehunter\u2019s Chronicles is the latest of a handful of websites that has helped researchers by informing the public of bridges, whose information is lacking, not just in a form of mystery bridges- bridges with no information on its place of origin but was relocated to its present site, but also bridges that have existed for many years but are missing the stories and history that makes them potential candidates to be recognized on the state and national levels. James Baughn has a list of photos of mystery bridges on his website, with no information of their places of origin, submitted by various people. The same is with Todd Wilson of Bridgemapper, even though the website focuses mainly on pinpointing the location of the bridges with some basic information on some of them. In either case, informing the people through the use of media, including social media, can encourage new contacts with people with information on the bridge you are researching about, which can help you complete your research in the long run.\nHeron Road Bridge over the Volga River in Fayette County, Iowa. This is one of many bridges that was replaced (this one in the 1970s) but has not been researched properly. This one has potential to be historically significant. Photo taken in August 2011. This one is used as a background photo for this website.\nWhy is tracing a bridge\u2019s history really important nowadays? Many of the historic bridges are being taken off the highway system by the dozens- either through demolition and replacement, abandonment, or conversion into a recreational bridge- for they have reached the end of their service lives as a vehicular bridge. While states have carried out their research since the 1980s and have renewed the bridge inventories recently, there have been some discrepancies in terms of information that is either inaccurate, missing or both. Part of it has to do with the lack of funding and time to conduct the research. Another has to do with the lack of willingness of some agencies and people to share the information on the bridge\u2019s history, fearing that they could be considered historically significant. As a result, many find ways to avert Section 106 4f of the Historic Preservation Act of 1966, requiring all historic bridges (both listed and eligible) to undergo a mitigation study to document the history of the structure, determine the environmental impact of the bridge replacement project and find alternatives to bridge replacement. Such aversion had worked up to the last decade, but calls have gotten louder by preservationists and other interested groups to review and revise the documentations done on their bridge to determine their historic significance, respect the policies regarding historic bridge preservation versus replacement, and consider preservation for future use. This is one of the important pieces of the puzzle and one that can potentially save more bridges than destroying them and with that their history.\nRunning parallel to the need to preserve historic bridges by redoing the inventory, the interest in historic bridges through literature has increased over the past 15 years. Thanks to the likes of Mary Costello, who wrote a two-volume set on the bridges over the Mississippi River, James Cooper, who wrote a book on the bridges of Indiana and the people at the Institution of Civil Engineering at Milton-Keynes near Oxford (England), who wrote a 10-volume set on the bridges in the United Kingdom and all of Ireland, many people are jumping on the bandwagon and writing about the historic bridges in their regions, which includes info-tracking them to find out more about their history. The trend will increase over the next five years, as pontists, photographers, locals and writers will continue to churn out more materials on historic bridges, whose information will be more accurate than the information provided in previous bridge studies. Therefore it is important to treat the bridges like you are doing a genealogical study of your own family: each bridge you profile in your project must have its history traced from the present to as far back to the past as history allows it. This includes the possibility that when a bridge you are researching was relocated from another region, traveling to the place where the bridge was first constructed may be a necessity. Such a measure should not be treated as a burden, but one where you can learn a lot along the way.\nWhile there are many examples of bridges that have traveled a long ways from their original starting point to the present, I\u2019ve identified two examples worth noting which can serve as a reference point for you to start your bridge research. These examples can be found in the next article. Happy Bridgehunting!\nBy Bridgehunter's Chroniclesin Bridge Preservation, Interesting Bridge Facts 15. September 2012 2,559 Words3 Comments",

Mwangi did not speak English but he decided that while I was teaching at his school I was his adoped Mzungu or white person. He followed me everywhere. Even turning up to classes in the afternoon when baby class had finished.\nLanguage was no barrier to the things we could learn from each other. Mwangi was an orphan. He had lost his parents and older sister to AIDs. This meant that he was being cared for by extended family. Mwangi had never seen colouring pencils or photos of computers, microwaves , even a bathroom. The things that we take for granted in our lives here in Australia. But he could draw what he saw in those pictures. I was presented with a perfect copy of a coloured cup from one of the photos.\nMwangi and he is from a village called Kajiado in Maasi land Kenya \u2013 he will remain in my heart for my lifetime.\nThis image is of Mwangi examining cut out dolls we did with the \u2018baby class\u2019, Mwangi spent at least 30 minutes just seeing how it was made. But having no scissors or paper, this was going to be impossible for him to do. Saying good bye to him was very difficult. He did not understand that I was going far away, to another land\nI hope that this picture will remind you to remember the paper dolls in our lives. To make use of the things the we have available and not waste one moment on the bigger things that are out of our control.\nSomethings just need to be.\nA saying that was taught to me was to \u201cbring nothing with you and to take nothing away, this is Africa\u201d. I guess it is time to ask of yourselves, what do you see, how does the world influence how you feel and what are the barriers that stop you from achieving the things that are important. Do you take time to examine the \u2018paper dolls\u2019, and make do with what you have in your life.",

        "raw_content": "Home Office Deduction for Business Opportunities and Other Small Businesses Made Easy\nGreat news from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for the 52% of business opportunity, distributorship, licensee opportunity, small franchise or other business owners who work from home! Starting this year and for your 2014 tax filing, claiming the home office deduction will be easier than ever before\u2026\nAs many of you know all too well, the home office deduction and whether or not to take is a source of great concern for far too many owners of business opportunities and other small businesses who run their operations solely from their place of residence. In fact, the National Association for the Self-Employed estimates that as many as 60% or more of individuals who have a home office and are eligible for a deduction of some kind as a result don\u2019t take it.\nSo what gives? Well, research shows there are a couple of reasons. First, it\u2019s all way too complicated. Filing for the current home office deduction requires filling out a separate form of more than 40 questions that includes calculations on everything from expenses and depreciation to carryovers of unused deductions\u2014all of which requires a tremendous amount of record keeping. Secondly, that kind of complexity intimidates many home-based business owners, many of whom fear even the slightest misstep in filing could trigger an IRS audit. And few people want to invite that kind of hassle, so they decide it\u2019s just not worth it.\nWith the new short-form write-off for tax year 2013 to be filed in 2014, it\u2019s so straightforward that the chances of messing up and therefore inviting unnecessary scrutiny are all but eliminated. While you\u2019re still only qualified to take a deduction if your home office is used exclusively and on a regular basis for any trade or business, or as a place to meet with your clients or customers, the calculating just got a whole lot easier. Now it\u2019s really just a matter of multiplying the square footage of your home that meets the criteria for home office use by $5 per square foot, up to a total of $1,500, and you\u2019re done. Of course, if the total is more than $1,500, you can still opt for the more complex approach in order to maximize your write-off.\nFor more information on the new home office deduction method, go to IRS.gov now!",

A fully self-supporting enterprise that receives no tax dollars for its operating expenses, the USPS has been in the red for quite some time, thanks in large part to the advent of the internet and the changes in consumer mailing habits that have evolved as a result.\nWhere online bill pay has become, for many of us, a dream come true, for the USPS it\u2019s been somewhat of a nightmare, resulting in millions of dollars in losses over the last few years. Recent cost-cutting measures designed to keep the USPS afloat have included consolidating smaller, oftentimes more rural post office locations and reducing its career workforce by a full 28 percent. This newest strategy to modify the current mail delivery schedule is anticipated to save approximately $2 billion per year.\nBeginning the week of August 5, 2013, mail delivery to street addresses will no longer occur on Saturdays, but will remain as is Monday through Friday. Packages of ALL sizes and mail addressed to P.O. boxes, however, will continue to be delivered six days a week. Post offices that are currently open on Saturdays will also remain open.\nThis new approach, while endorsed by as much as 70% of the American public, is designed to minimize any negative impact on businesses and consumers who rely heavily on e-commerce and direct mail marketing for their survival and growth. However, its potential effects remain a source of concern to many, among them Democratic Senator Mark Begich of Alaska. This is especially \u201cbad news for Alaskans and small business owners,\u201d he said, many of whom rely heavily on the timely delivery of mail to rural areas.\nEchoing his sentiment is Fredric Rolando, president of the National Association of Letter Carriers, who called this latest cutback \u201ca disastrous idea.\u201d It\u2019s one \u201cthat would have a profoundly negative effect on the Postal Service and on millions of customers,\u201d particularly businesses, rural communities, the elderly, the disabled and others who depend on Saturday delivery for commerce and communication,\u201d he said.\nThe USPS is the only delivery service that can and does reach every address in the nation\u2014151 million residences, businesses and P.O. boxes\u2014on a routine daily basis. In fact, it delivers nearly 40 percent of the world\u2019s mail and routinely has been named by the public over many years as the Most Trusted Government Agency.\nFor more information on the USPS\u2019 new delivery schedule beginning in August of 2013, click here now!\nREADERS: Please weigh in! When it comes to this issue, we want to hear from you! How do you think this latest move by the USPS might affect your home-based, online or other small business opportunity, franchise or other small business? Why?",

The slow start could slash yields. In the future, hotter and drier conditions due to global warming could also put a dent in corn yields, according to a new study.\nThe research is based on field data from more than 1 million federal crop insurance records between 1995 and 2012 and correlated with fine-scale weather data. It shows that while corn yields in the Midwest have steadily risen, the staple grain is also growing more sensitive to drought. About 80 percent of the corn grown in the Midwest is dryland. If it doesn\u2019t rain, there is no water.\nTags: Agriculture, Corn, Drought\nPosted in Climate Change, Food\nA new study on how coral reacts to global climate change has some researchers optimistic that at least a few of the polychromatic reefs crucial to underwater ecosystems may be better able to adjust to a warming world than was previously thought.\nThat\u2019s good news, given that coral reefs soften the blow of storms headed to areas where people live, and nurture a kaleidoscopic array of fish that provide a livelihood and food for people around the globe.\nBut coral reefs aren\u2019t out of hot water yet.\nTags: Coral Reef, Fish\nInternational efforts to combat global warming are so broken that it\u2019s come to this: hoovering massive amounts of carbon dioxide out of the sky.\nA body of scientists convened under the auspices of the United Nations is giving more weight to the idea that vacuuming vast stores of CO2 from the skies and burying it in the ground may be necessary to limit the temperature rise to the internationally agreed safe level of 3.6 degrees Fahrenheit above pre-industrial levels.\nTags: Carbon Dioxide, Engineering, IPCC",

This is followed on Sunday by the anniversary dinner with Charlton legends, organised by the 25th Anniversary Committee.\nThis year\u2019s fundraising activities have also included the Keith Peacock golf day, Legends United charity match, and the Sidemen FC game.\nThese funds raised will go to secure the long term future of Charlton Athletic Community Trust and ensure it can continue to improve the lives of local people across South East London and Kent, by funding infrastructure and projects.\nFor example, funds raised this year will help CACT continue to run its disability football provision, mental health programmes, invest in new music equipment for young people in the Royal Borough of Greenwich to develop their skills and pursue their ambitions and a classroom at Sparrows Lane so young people can develop employability skills and gain qualifications.\nSupporters have generously supported CACT over the years, raising over \u00a3150,000 for the Charlton Upbeats since 2008 and supporting the Legends United game in September.\nA recent year-long study found that every \u00a31 CACT invests is worth \u00a36.89 in social value. Donations can go a long way to helping deliver social change at the heart of the community.\nIn addition to the 25% of home ticket and programme sales, Regular Cleaning have also agreed to make a donation based on the attendance of the game.\nCACT Chief Executive Jason Morgan MBE said:\n\"We are very grateful to the club for their generosity in donating 25% of ticket and programme sales to CACT from the game. The Fans\u2019 Forum proposed this initiative for ticket sales targets and therefore providing additional funding that will support our projects.\n\u201cThe Supporters\u2019 Trust are being proactive in promoting this to fans who will also be able to select, after Saturday, one of CACT\u2019s projects for funds to support. My thanks to the fans, the club and Regular Cleaning for their support around the game, and let\u2019s hope it's a great day\".\nAs of Thursday night 14,770 tickets have been sold; just 230 away from unlocking a donation of \u00a32,000 to CACT.\nYou can buy tickets for Saturday\u2019s game by clicking here",

        "raw_content": "Post Practice Interviews \u2013 11-7-17\nKolby Smith, Jaylen Smith and Malik Williams spoke with the media after today\u2019s practice.\nLOUISVILLE, Ky. \ufffd The open week was a good opportunity for the University of Louisville football team to get back to the fundamentals and prepare for the final three game of the 2017 season \ufffd the first coming Saturday against Atlantic Coast Conference foe Virginia at Papa John\ufffds Cardinal Stadium.\n\ufffdYou never get a chance to relax,\ufffd running backs coach Kolby Smith said following Tuesday\ufffds practice. \ufffdHowever, it was a good chance for us to take a step back and become a better football team. We focused a lot on ourselves and just tried to get better as we close out the year.\ufffd\nComing off a disappointing loss to Wake Forest, the Cardinals are one victory shy of securing eight-consecutive seasons of being bowl eligible. At 5-4, one might think that the team\ufffds attitude is down, but wide receiver Jaylen Smith said it\ufffds quite the opposite.\n\ufffdIt\ufffds still very energetic and positive,\ufffd Jaylen Smith said of the team\ufffds attitude heading into this weekend\ufffds game. \ufffdThe coaches always say you can control two things: effort and attitude. We are still keeping a positive attitude. The attitude is that we have to win out, and that\ufffds what we are going to try and do.\ufffd\nWith three games remaining on the schedule, Smith knows that time is running out on the season, and opportunities to get to the postseason are dwindling \ufffd making Saturday\ufffds game a must-win.\n\ufffdThere is no better time than the present,\ufffd Smith said. \ufffdWe need to do it now. We aren\ufffdt trying to look forward to anything. We are playing Virginia this week and we have to win this one. That\ufffds where our focus is heading into this week.\ufffd\nReturning home this week to face a solid Virginia team, the Cardinals and Cavaliers have played three-straight games that have gone down to the wire.\nLast season, Smith made an acrobatic catch in the end zone with 13 seconds left for a 32-25 win in Charlottesville, and the Cardinals held off a late rally at home in 2015 to win 38-31. In their first road ACC game in 2014, the Cavaliers capitalized on a late fumble and kicked a field goal for a 23-21 win.\n\ufffdWe been playing the same guys since we\ufffdve joined the ACC,\ufffd Smith added. \ufffdMy freshman year, we beat them by seven and last year we won late. We know they are a good team and they play hard all the way to the end.\ufffd\nFacing the Cavaliers this week, Smith reminisced about his game-winning catch last year, calling it the highlight of his season a year ago \ufffd a play that helped propel the Cardinals toward a nine-win season.\n\ufffdIt was definitely the highlight of my season last year,\ufffd Smith said. \ufffdDoing that in dramatic fashion, and the end of the game, was really one of the highlights of my career.\ufffd\nSmith and the Cardinals are hoping for another win \ufffd even if it requires some dramatics \ufffd when they host the Cavaliers on Saturday at 3:30 p.m.",

        "raw_content": "Douching as a Birth Control Method\nClinical investigations of the 1920s and 1930s showed very high failure rates for douching as a contraceptive method. In 1928 James F. Cooper, M.D., Medical Director of the Clinical Research Department of the American Birth Control League, wrote about the limits of douching as birth control in Technique of Contraception. Dr. Cooper even mentions advertisements in women's magazines and states:\n\"It is to be feared that such advertising will enhance the vogue of the douche as a method of contraception.\"\nAdvertisements used the vague term \"Feminine Hygiene\" and continued to sell douching kits and solutions. The Lysol disinfectant douche became a top-selling feminine hygiene product from the 1930s through the 1960s. The douching kits were inexpensive and readily available from drug and grocery stores. Full-page advertisements featuring \"eminent women physicians\" endorsing such products appeared in many women's magazines. Many douching solutions proved ineffective as spermicidals. Some even had toxic effects that inflamed, irritated or even burned the vagina and cervix. Today douching is not recognized as a birth control method. It is considered harmful as it alters the natural healthy state of the vagina.\nChemical Contraception\nUsing an antiseptic douche after intercourse was thought to kill any sperm left in the woman's body. Antiseptic chemicals came in a variety of other forms including: powders, foaming powders, effervescent tablets, jellies and suppositories (also called pessaries). These would have the advantage of being introduced before rather than after the sex act. Ingredients in such products varied greatly, as did application techniques.",

        "raw_content": "Bob Campbell - AANR Member Trustee\nWe often read stories about \u201cmy first skinny-dip,\u201d \u201cmy first nude beach experience,\u201d and other first times of nudism. When I was asked to write this column, I realized I\u2019ve had many \u201cfirst-times.\u201d Indulge me in this trip down memory lane to relive a few of them and remember the fun that came with them.\nI became interested in nudism before knowing what nudism was all about \u2013 I just knew I was happiest with no clothes. When still in grade school, I would seize opportunities to be nude \u2013 always when there was no chance I\u2019d get caught. I remember coming home from school when I had the house to myself and stripping down to watch TV. There was nothing titillating about the experience \u2013 I was just more comfortable that way. This was my first experience with being nude and having fun \u2013 albeit pretty tamely.\nThe 1970s created my first opportunity for public nudity \u2013 streaking. Personally, I picked places where the chances of getting caught was low, such as barbeques or country hikes. Although I loved being naked, I feared the consequences of being seen.\nMy nudist activities took a long break when I got out of college. I was married with a family, and my wife was not a nudist so there was pressure to keep my clothes on. I enjoyed the few opportunities when the family was out, but I couldn\u2019t be naked for extended periods without creating a major rift in the household.\nThen, we moved to an acreage. There, I first experienced the joys of free walking. Having a dog meant that I had an excuse to go out, and the privacy of the valley meant that I could spend hours walking nude through pastures and wooded areas, and even go skinny-dipping in the river \u2013 another first.\nIt was then that I started looking for opportunities for social nudity. I had recently come out of the nudist closet and was openly expressing my enjoyment of the nudist experience \u2013at least verbally. I took to the internet and discovered both The American Association for Nude Recreation (AANR) and the Federation of Canadian Naturists (FCN). Through AANR, I found a local club (Sunny Chinooks) and through them I went to my first nude swim. That was in the spring of 2004 and I have been a member of AANR and an active social nudist ever since.\nThere have been many more firsts since then. My first visit to a nude beach at Wreck Beach in Vancouver, my first AANR-West Canadian Convention at Sol Sante, my first AANR Midwinter Meeting at Cypress Cove, my first time at a nude beach while on vacation at Eden Bay in the Dominican Republic, and the first time I hosted a nude house party. Nude firsts occur every time I attend another nudist event. Every \u201cfirst nude experience\u201d leads to the same feelings \u2013 body acceptance of myself and others, a feeling of self-confidence, a sense of doing something healthy and, most importantly, a belief that I am doing what I was meant to do.",

        "raw_content": "The Certification Experience\nTake a quick peek at the art that accompanies one of our feature articles in this issue, and you\u2019ll see a \u201cchicken and the egg\u201d theme. It\u2019s a great image, but the more I think about it, the more I\u2019m sure it\u2019s misplaced.\nNot that it doesn\u2019t belong with that feature, but because the real chicken and the real egg in this issue is in an unlikely, and un-illustrated, place: the Letters to the Editor column.\nLet me back up a month. In our March 2003 issue, we included a reader\u2019s letter downplaying the value of certification in favor of experience. An editor\u2019s note invited readers to share your opinions. And boy, did you.\nSome letters fell into one camp, some into the other, and some straddled the \u201call of the above\u201d fence. We had no consensus of opinion, but we certainly tapped a nerve. (Thanks to all, seriously, for sharing their thoughts.)\nSo, is certification the chicken or the egg? It\u2019s impossible to definitively say that one has more value than the other. Experience is unbeatable, of course, when it comes to doing the job, but certification is often the grease that lets even veteran professionals slide into jobs and use that experience. Which is more important\u2014being able to breathe or having air to breathe?\nThe easy answer, naturally, is both are co-dependant and of equal value. That comes closest to the truth of the experience-versus-certification debate.\nFor aspiring professionals without experience, a certification is a great place to start. It shows a commitment, an investment, in a career, and in this age of vastly improved testing, it shows at least a basic aptitude. It\u2019s the first step on the road to experience, and that\u2019s a journey that has to start somewhere.\nFor experienced, uncertified professionals, getting credentialed shows all of that as well. And in addition, it combines with the experience to relay that most desired of professional concepts, mastery. It\u2019s never too late in an IT career to certify yourself, and as the saying goes, it sure can\u2019t hurt.\nI\u2019m not na\u00efve enough to think this editor\u2019s letter, or the reader opinions in the pages to follow, will end the certification-versus-experience debate. Like the Zen-like query of the chicken and the egg, the discussion will go on.\nBut for now, let this be the final word: No matter which came first, chickens and eggs both make satisfying meals.\ntsosbe@certmag.com",

This is why CGS invites graduate leaders from around the world to participate in meetings that address international issues in graduate education. These include the Strategic Leaders Global Summit on Graduate Education, convened annually in different locations around the world, along with meetings and workshops held in the United States.\nThe Strategic Leaders Global Summit on Graduate Education\nToday, faculty and graduate students conduct research with global implications, collaborate with international networks of researchers, and produce knowledge that circulates worldwide. In this environment, graduate leaders are seeking to prepare their institutions for new opportunities and challenges. The Strategic Leaders Global Summit on Graduate Education supports these efforts by providing a forum for active discussion and collaboration. Each year, graduate leaders from a wide range of countries and regions contribute diverse perspectives on the summit topic while working together to develop best practices that further the shared goal of supporting graduate education and research.\nSupporting Diversity in Education\nThe 2018 Summit theme, \u201cSupporting Diversity in Graduate Education,\u201d addresses the ways in which graduate education leaders across the world seek ways to identify, create, and disseminate curricula and strategies to ensure diversity in their programs and on their campuses. Developing a diverse graduate education community may mean different things in various parts of the world (race; ethnicity; gender; and socioeconomic, first-generation, or immigrant status). Through efforts to educate our communities and change social attitudes or focused outreach and support through workshops, recruitment fairs, and specialized program offerings, our shared goal is to foster learning environments that provide access and equity for all current and future graduate students.\nThe 2017 Summit theme, \u201cGraduate Education 2030: Imagining the Future\u201d revisits an earlier CGS Project Graduate Education 2020, which challenged leading scholars to consider technological, demographic, and global trends shaping graduate education around the world, and to use the best evidence available to predict what the future of graduate education might look like. Now that the year 2020 is within sight, we take this opportunity to reconsider the future these scholars imagined. Looking even farther ahead, to 2030, international leaders in graduate education will consider the global forces transforming graduate education in their countries and regions: How does the nature of graduate education in 2030 differ from what is available in 2017?\nThe 2016 Global Summit on Graduate Education addressed the question, \u201cWhat is a doctorate?\u201d in light of a number of global trends affecting the definition and delivery of doctoral education.\nThe 2015 Summit explored the implications of big data for graduate education as well as the need to prepare the next generation of graduate students to navigate big data environments.\nThe complete list of Global Summit events is available at Global Summit Archive.\nFor more information about CGS meetings on international issues, please contact Katherine Hazelrigg.",

        "raw_content": "I\u2019m no jazz aficionado, just a fan, a lifelong fan. I know a fair share of jazz\u2019s history. While I\u2019ve taken some jazz guitar lessons, learned some scales, and know first hand the complexity of this rich and varied music, I claim no special expertise. So, why is it so troubling to learn about the movement with the intent to rename Jazz to Black American Music? Apparently, Nicholas Payton believes jazz died in 1959, that it was a limited concept anyway.\nWhatever we want to say about Jazz\u2019s history, where the term came from, or what it may have come to mean, even the way jazz (like so many things American) is embedded with racial strife, it\u2019s a bad idea to try and change the name of an entire history. That\u2019s what it is. Jazz is a history of music, not just some convenient marketing label or genre tag. Attempting to rename it because not enough people understand what it is, or because young kids don\u2019t know who Louis Armstrong or Duke Ellington is, is a band-aid to a larger problem related to education and how music in general is marketed and popularized. I\u2019m not saying I know all the solutions, but such a re-branding effort is mistaken.\nHere\u2019s a summary the basic arguments for why Jazz should be renamed BAM: (1) It\u2019s an effort toward correcting the historical record; (2) It will educate people about where the music really comes from; (3) It is actually more inclusive than exclusive (there is no intent, anyway, to be exclusive); and (4) To renew the interest in Jazz, especially for the audience \u201cthat isn\u2019t there.\u201d\nEtymologically, jazz is a fascinating word. The slang word \u201cjasm\u201d appears as early as 1842 (some say 1860), and means \u201cspirit, energy, spunk.\u201d It seems to have become a part of American parlance in the early part of the 20th century. For instance, one of its earliest recorded uses sprung up from the West Coast in 1912, and didn\u2019t even have a musical connotation. It was used by a minor league pitcher, Ben Henderson, who referred to his new curve ball as the Jazz Ball \u201cbecause it wobbles and you simply can\u2019t do anything with it.\u201d The word did refer to music in Chicago as early as 1915. As a noun in the 1920s it seems to have generally meant \u201cto make more decorative.\u201d According to A Historical Dictionary of American Slang, as an adjective, in the 1910s \u201cto excite or enthuse.\u201d As an adjective, \u201cjazzed\u201d seems to have connoted being drunk (which, again, seems related to \u201cspirits\u201d). There are several strains of where the term actually comes from, and no doubt there are plenty of sexual slang connotations related to \u201cjizz,\u201d \u201cspunk,\u201d \u201cjism\u201d and so on, but that\u2019s pretty weak ground for changing the entire name of over a centuries-worth of a serious musical art form.\nHanging Chad can\u2019t possibly take on this complex topic systematically, but one problem is radio play itself. It hasn\u2019t just ruined a generation of rock, it\u2019s pretty much calcified every other musical form that seeks to express itself in any way other than what is deemed as mass-market potential. At least there are people like Esperanza Spalding trying to do something about it. Orrin Evans seems to be a leading spokesperson for the BAM movement, and while he seems convinced of BAM\u2019s essential efficacy and doesn\u2019t have an intent to exclude, it seems this effort does just that (he was frustrated by the fact-shaping of Annette John-Hall\u2019s interpretation of his reasoning in a recent article from the Philly Inquirer). While it may be frustrating that most audiences these days are \u201cwhite guys,\u201d it seems to me that the irony of these rebranding efforts only does exactly what it suggests we shouldn\u2019t do: re-create racial antipathy. For instance, do I not have a right to voice these very opinions because I\u2019m a \u201cwhite guy\u201d? And aren\u2019t there quite a number of white pioneers in the music form throughout the 20th century? I wonder what the 91-year-old Dave Brubeck has to say on the subject, or late-greats like Benny Goodman, Chet Baker, Bill Evans and others?\nTagged: Annette John-Hall, BAM, Black American Music, Dave Brubeck, jazz, Miles Davis, Nicholas Payton, Orrin Evans",

        "raw_content": "Lance Briggs happy as a Fox, but future uncertain\nPHOENIX \u2013 It\u2019s a new era for the Bears with Halas Hall now in the hands of seasoned coach John Fox and first-year general manager Ryan Pace. But a coveted member of the old guard still would like to play.\n\u201cOh yeah,\u201d linebacker Lance Briggs said Wednesday at an event for the 2015 NFL Draft in Chicago at the Sheraton Phoenix Downtown Hotel.\nTime will tell if that happens with the Bears. The franchise has new decision-makers deciding their path for 2015 and beyond.\nBriggs hasn\u2019t talked to Fox \u201csince years ago,\u201d he said. But he\u2019s completely on board with Fox\u2019s arrival \u2013- excited even, despite his own uncertainty.\n\u201cJohn, I think, he\u2019s the right man for the job,\u201d Briggs said. \u201cI\u2019ve seen John over the years. He\u2019s had a lot of success in the NFL. He understands the NFL. He\u2019s a football coach.\u201d\nAnd former coach Marc Trestman?\n\u201cSome things worked. Some things don\u2019t,\u201d Briggs said. \u201cMarc is a good man. I wish him all the success over in Baltimore. It just was what it was.\u201d\nA change in defensive scheme looks in the works for the Bears. Defensive coordinator Vic Fangio ran a 3-4 defense with San Francisco 49ers. Clint Hurtt, a defensive line assistant last year, also has shifted to outside linebackers.\nBut Briggs, a seven-time Pro Bowl linebacker, believes he can transcend scheme. The finer nuisances of Fox\u2019s and Fangio\u2019s scheme could help as far as his assimilation.\n\u201cI can play in a 3-4,\u201d said Briggs, one of the best linebackers in team history. \u201cIt depends on the way that it\u2019s run. There\u2019s guys that run it as a two-gap system 3-4 and there\u2019s guys that run it as a single-gap system 3-4.\u201d\nAt 34 years old, Briggs\u2019 once-revered durability is a question mark. He has played only in 17 games over the past two seasons.\nIt was a groin injury in Week 12 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers \u2013- Briggs described it as \u201cdamaged\u201d \u2013- that ended his 2014 season.\n\u201cWhen I walked off right before half,\u201d Briggs said, \u201c[the team doctors] told me you\u2019re going to be down for about six weeks of inactivity before you can get back out and start running.\u201d\nAll that said, Briggs is healthy now. His groin has healed and so have his ribs, another injury that kept him off the field during the 2014 season. He\u2019s been working out twice a day in Arizona.\nThe plan, of course, is to keep playing. He\u2019d love to speak to Fox and Pace some day.\n\u201cIt\u2019d be nice,\u201d Briggs said. \u201cBut as much as I don\u2019t know, I\u2019m excited no matter avenue that I go. If I get to play football, it\u2019s going to be great. That\u2019s priority No. 1.\n\u201cBut if I don\u2019t, there\u2019s plenty of avenues for me afterwards. There\u2019s plenty of things that I want to do.\u201d\nOn Wednesday, that included representing the Bears and the City of Chicago at a draft event. Briggs said he\u2019s proud of his 12 years in Chicago during a short speech.\nBut the uncertainty for his future \u2013 will he or won\u2019t he play again? \u2013 is definitely rife with new emotions.\n\u201cIt\u2019s uncharted territory,\u201d he said. \u201cI\u2019m embracing it however it comes, preparing for life after football and I\u2019m preparing to play football again at the same time.\u201d\nTwitter: @adamjahns",

        "title": "Essay-Review: Billy Elliot \u2013 A teaching moment? | Chicago Theater Beat",
        "raw_content": "Essay-Review: Billy Elliot \u2013 A teaching moment?\nBilly Elliot: A teaching moment?\nby Paige Listerud\nThere shouldn\u2019t be any trouble with the critically acclaimed and multiple award-winning show Billy Elliot, but there is. Simply put, the music \u2013 composed by Elton John \u2013 is gorgeous, the songs, memorable. The dialogue is, by turns, funny and frank\u2014at appropriate moments brutally unsentimental and at others deeply touching. Under Stephen Daldry\u2019s cunning direction, Billy Elliot successfully veers from hardcore expressionism to utter escapist fantasy. It\u2019s a heartwarming tale about a child achieving his dreams against horrendous odds. All the same, while stuffed to the gills with sterling inter-generational talent, this multilayered production just isn\u2019t putting bums in the seats at the Oriental Theatre the way Wicked did. Broadway in Chicago invited us to its \u201cbloggers\u2019 bash\u201d last Thursday, no doubt to generate a fresh injection of press. Yet, shockingly, little more than half the theater was filled on a Thursday night.\nSo just what is the trouble with Billy?\nIts rough language turns off too many parents. Hard to believe that this could be a concern in an urban setting, but this is the Midwest. Marketing Billy Elliot as a family show because of its plethora of child talent may have crashed on the reefs of American conservatism over language. Certainly the movie version, when it came to the US, received an R rating for adult language, which later transformed to a PG-13 rating upon DVD release. Much as I might wish that both parents and children could appreciate the touch of realism that Lee Hall has scripted for his Northern industrial English town, my sentiments may be completely overridden by parents not wanting one more cultural inducement for their kids to engage in verbal shock and awe.\nIt\u2019s the economy stupid. Say what you want about uplifting messages about a talented dancing boy achieving his dreams, Billy Elliot is dark. Billy (J.P. Viernes for our performance) makes it to the Royal Ballet in London, but his small town community is going down. It\u2019s 1984 and Margaret Thatcher is shutting down the UK\u2019s national coal mining industry in favor of cheap coal from the Eastern bloc states. 300,000 jobs are all going bye-bye\u2013forever. Try wringing a positive message out of that scenario as America double dips into the Great Recession (Great Depression for people of color) and the Democrats lose the gains they made in Congress two years ago.\nSo it\u2019s not just the dirty words\u2014Billy Elliot is crashing on the reefs of America\u2019s economic and political turmoil. Would that the show itself could be a teaching moment about the value of survival in hard times. The trouble is that the only person surviving decently is Billy . . . and he survives because he is exceptionally talented, because his talent holds youthful promise, and because his future career is in the arts, not coal mining. The UK still subsidizes the arts far more than the US\u2014but even that funding is facing a 25% cut under the current government.\nWhat may be an even more important point, emotionally and dramatically speaking, is that Billy is a lonely survivor. The production creates an infinitely potent moment of loss and isolation with the number \u201cOnce We Were Kings.\u201d The miners, defeated after their struggle with the Thatcher government, descend into the darkness of the mining pit with only the lights on their helmets showing. Billy watches them depart\u2014his own shadow cast long, black and solitary behind him. One way of life is ending while Billy\u2019s is just beginning. Melancholy infuses Billy\u2019s singular success at the Royal Ballet. Billy makes his escape to London\u2014but he cannot take the rest of his family or community with him.\nSadly, this just may be more realism than American audiences are ready to pay for in our country\u2019s present situation. Ironically, Billy Elliot is just as much about human beings resorting to fantasy as a way to cope with hard times. This production contains incredible moments of fun and beautiful fantasy. Billy\u2019s dance number with his young friend Michael (Dillon Stevens), complete with a cadre of 20-foot tap-dancing dress, is a flight into reverie over the joy of women\u2019s clothing for the young cross-dresser. Other fantasy moments expand into profound theatrical expressions.\nOne of the deep pleasures of this production, over and above the movie version, is that we do not actually witness Billy as an adult ballet star. Future success is only hinted at during Billy\u2019s dance with his older self (Samuel Pergande) to the music of Swan Lake. Peter Darling\u2019s choreography and Rick Fisher\u2019s lighting design evoke a scene that recalls William Wordsworth\u2019s \u201cThe Child is Father of the Man.\u201d The audience is moved to hope and dream with Billy because it can glimpse the fulfillment of his human potential through Viernes and Pergande\u2019s grace and control.\nDarling\u2019s choreography even makes profound social statements about the nature of children\u2019s lives under violent labor-busting conditions. The dance number \u201cSolidarity\u201d is by far the high point of the show. Darling intricately weaves together the feminine setting of Mrs. Wilkinson\u2019s dance class with the outer masculine sparring between miners and police. Billy may tussle with the girls to keep up with Mrs. Wilkinson\u2019s dance orders, but the children seem protected and separate from the struggle that is determining the course of their lives. Darling\u2019s choreography stunningly reveals just how illusory separation is. It brings together the two disparate worlds of Billy\u2019s universe and the lyrics of the song even comment on the blue-collar connections between the police and the striking miners. That\u2019s a lot to achieve in one number and the cast pulls it off fantastically.\nIn fact, let\u2019s just say here that every dance number is fantastic. Only the first act finale, \u201cAngry Dance\u201d pales, seeming rather anti-climactic, compared to the rest. Billy\u2019s secret ballet lessons with Mrs. Wilkinson (Emily Skinner) have been exposed. Billy\u2019s Dad (Armand Schulz) has just forbidden both them and his chance to audition at the Royal Ballet in London. So far as Billy\u2019s family and the other miners are concerned, ballet is for \u201cpoofs.\u201d Billy\u2019s angry dance afterwards meshes with the violence erupting in town, since the police have just violently attacked Billy\u2019s brother Tony (Patrick Mulvey \u2013 see picture below the fold).\nBut once again, the choreography positions Billy as a lonely warrior against forces beyond his control. He alone faces a line of riot police with their ominous shields. Even as symbolism, the image is heavy-handed. Surely the rage and bloodshed that the whole community faces is worth some representation on stage. Having set Billy up as the boy who is \u201cdifferent\u201d from the rest\u2014because of his love for dance\u2013he cannot at this point stand in for the whole community. As much as Fisher\u2019s stark, expressionist lighting packs a powerful punch, the act of isolating Billy as if he were the only one suffering diminishes the powerful communal statement of the entire production and does not cleanly communicate Billy\u2019s rage.\nBilly is different from other boys. Billy is tacitly queer. Could the social conservatism of Billy\u2019s mining town, circa 1984, have its mirror reflection in the urban and suburban environs of 2010 Chicago? That\u2019s difficult to say. So long as documentaries like Straight-laced: How Gender\u2019s Got Us All Tied Up reveal kids being harassed and bullied just for wearing scarves or pastel colors; so long as youngsters commit suicide because of anti-gay harassment at school \u2013 messages that promote tolerance regarding sexual identity and gender expression will always be needed in America.\nA message of acceptance and tolerance, of appreciating differences, not denying, hiding or shunning them\u2014this is the core message of Billy Elliot. One wonders whether this message, too, has been overwhelmed by our current economic troubles. Billy needs to escape the economic reality that his family and community confront. But the cost to him seems to be any close association with family and community. Few moments inspire more than when, not only Billy\u2019s family realizes that he has to have his chance, but the entire community of rough and rugged miners offer up what little money they have left to get him to his audition in London. At that moment, Billy\u2019s queerness seems to make no difference and their funding of his aspirations becomes their last, noble expression of \u201cSolidarity Forever.\u201d\nBilly makes it out because of his exceptional talent. Heaven help the poor queer kid in a rough mining town who is simply average. At the end of the show, Billy gives his queer buddy, Michael, a goodbye peck on the cheek. Heaven help Michael because his community\u2019s homophobia is not over and done with, whatever they have done for Billy. Michael still has to grow into queer adulthood. On top of that, he now has to grow up with extreme economic disadvantages to himself, his family, and his community\u2014something that won\u2019t make the homophobia go away. One of the terrifying things about economic crises is that people often go looking for an Other to scapegoat\u2014whether that Other is queer, immigrant, or a member of a minority.\nIs Billy Elliot\u2019s message of acceptance, then, too narrow for our times? What one has with Billy\u2019s acceptance by his family, the endorsement of his community, and with Billy and Michael\u2019s own personal self-acceptance, is a brief respite from the punishing restrictions of sexuality and gender prejudice. It hardly seems enough in the face of government-sponsored economic terrorism\u2013but they have to make do with what they have. And so do we.\nRight now, that may not be enough for the American public, at least in terms of entertainment. Billy Elliot is such a big, rich and complex musical treat but it cannot do it all. One can only hope that this superb production has what it takes to survive the current climate.\nBilly Elliot is currently playing at the Ford Center/Oriental Theatre through January 15. Individual tickets range in price from $30 to $100, and can be bought at all Broadway in Chicago box offices (24 W. Randolph, 151 W. Randolph and 18 W.

Maybe we saw a different play. The impression the townspeople have of male dancers does not equate to Billy\u2019s persona. Not only tacitly but expressly, Billy rejects the advances of BOTH male and female. He is 11 and has not felt it necessary to bring sex into his friendships. I think it\u2019s more likely that these comments reflect the fact that things haven\u2019t changed that much for male dancers in the last 26 years \u2014 they are judged by there proclivity to use their bodies to express themselves rather than their actual personalities. Even if it\u2019s just a character. Michael (Billy\u2019s friend) is \u201ctacitly queer\u201d while Billy is not. And yes, you\u2019re right \u2014 it\u2019s not a good idea to assume this is a \u201cfamily\u201d show just because there are kids in it. It\u2019s not Avenue Q, but it is gritty at times, kind of like life.\nPaige Listerud, on September 12, 2010 at 12:09 am said:\nWould you believe that my editor actually put in the word \u201ctacitly\u201d? I was ready to go all the way with \u201cqueer\u201d alone.\nI think\u2013though, ultimately it\u2019s always a mistake to presume\u2013that the dramatic intention was to keep audiences guessing about Billy\u2019s sexual orientation. As you point out, why talk about that when the boy is just 11? Still, for his blue-collar culture, ballet is \u201cqueer\u201d, mining is manly. Ballet alone, at least in this culturally conservative setting, marks Billy as a \u201cpoof,\u201d as queer.\nAs for dear little Michael, all we know from the musical is that he likes cross-dressing and Barbie dolls\u2013and that may say something or nothing regarding his sexual orientation. Certainly there exist straight men who enjoy cross-dressing\u2013the very English Eddie Izzard for one. When I talk about Michael growing into \u201cqueer adulthood\u201d I mean, primarily, that he will probably continue cross-dressing, just like his dad. He shows affectionate interest in Billy\u2013will he be gay, bi, or straight? We never get to see.\nAvenue Q is definitely an adult show done in a children\u2019s educational broadcasting mode, ala Sesame Street. I believe Billy Elliot is intended for families\u2013however, its translation to American culture becomes strained from running into American cultural conservatism.",

        "raw_content": "The carol was already an old form of dance and song long before the beginning of Christianity. A popular misconception sometimes these days is that the carol emerged as a sort of jolly hymn in the Middle Ages and which persisted into Dickensian times and on to the present. To find the true origins of the carol we have to look far back in history and in doing this we find that it is not by any means the same thing as a hymn, and also that it is not exclusively linked to Christmas or even the main festivals of Christianity.\nCarols did not originally have any religious intention as we find out from the origin of the word. The classical Greek philosopher Socrates had many followers \u2014 one of these was Plato (c 424-348 B.C.) who lived in a time when theatrical entertainment was well established. This would be made up of a chorus, acting, dancing and singing, frequently alternating with the classical Greek flute-like instrument the \u2018aulos\u2019. The Greek word \u2018choros\u2019 means \u2018a circling dance\u2019 as well referring to the chorus or choir which performed such dances. The compound word \u2018chor-aulos\u2019 as the forerunner of the word carol can therefore be said to signify an often pleasurable form of entertainment which has several elements. The influential Plato was determined that entertainment should not just be for the sake of pleasure but that there would also be an emphasis on truth and a degree of seriousness as well.\nHymns as we have looked at in the last three months have been used by people for thousands of years to give reverence to beings that were regarded as superior, starting in ancient civilisations and continuing into our Christian worship. However, the carol which originally involved singing, playing and dancing for community pleasure was a different category of music altogether from hymns - one in which a community expressed celebration and which might have content that was narrative or even nonsensical, and might contain symbolic language or even be satirical.\nThese days we have a large collection of songs sung as part of Christian worship and which are grouped under the term \u2018Christmas Carols\u2019. Some of these have only a loose association with Christmas e.g. \u2018The Holly and the Ivy\u2019 has content which could well refer to pagan rites rather than the birth of Christ; a printed version of this carol first appeared in 1710 but the phrase \u2018the merry organ\u2019 which appears in the chorus was first used by Geoffrey Chaucer in his writings in the 1300's. Carols such as these are termed \u2018traditional\u2019 and the older they are the more difficult it is to discover an author. Even some of today's well known carols have some strangely mixed authorship histories. An example of this type of composition is found in the well known carol \u2018Hark the herald angels sing\u2019 this was a compilation in 1856 by a William Henry Cummings who fitted texts of the 18th century by Charles Wesley (1707- 1788) and a couple of other writers to a gavotte style melody by Felix Mendelssohn (1809-1847). Cummings was a singer and organist who as a teenager sang in the choir when Mendelssohn conducted his first British performance of his oratorio \u2018Elijah\u2019, he later became a professor and then director at the Guildhall School of Music. However, Mendelssohn was accused of \"borrowing\" the tune from a Dr. Pepusch who had used it in one of his operas where it was called \u2018Song of Mars\u2019, but it may not have even been original to him ! But one thing is clear, out of the assortment of text and music of uncertain backgrounds we have a standardized version which quite rightly has a secure place in our Christmas worship. In this part of the country we cannot look at Christmas music without a quick word about our local carols. Many of the Christmas carols we sing today are from the Victorian era and as they took hold in churches particularly from the 1830's onwards, many older carols which had been sung in churches , often with the accompaniment of local self taught musicians , were in effect moved out to other singing venues, usually the local pubs. The words and music may vary from area to area and as we know have a particularly strong following in South Yorkshire and Northeast Derby shire.\n\"Silent night, holy night\"\nSleeps the world; hid from sight,\nMary and Joseph in stable bare\nwatched o'er the child beloved and fair\nsleeping in heavenly rest,\nsleeping in heavenly rest.\nThis carol was first penned as a poem by the Austrian priest Joseph Mohr (1792- 1848) in 1816, nearly 200 years ago. The story goes that on Christmas Eve 1818 in the village of Oberndorf he had a dilemma as the church organ had broken. He gave the poem to his friend and choir music director Franz Gruber (1787-1863) who wrote a simple lilting dance- type melody for guitar accompaniment so the carol could be sung at the midnight service. The other verses tell us how the shepherds were affected by Christ's birth and how God's love shines on us, though of course this is not only at Christmas but all year through.",

        "raw_content": "How The Grinch Stole Christmas! Star Stefan Karl Explains the Unique (and Scary) Customs of an Icelandic Christmas\nQ&A 11/08/13\nAs the title green menace in the national tour of Dr. Seuss\u2019 How The Grinch Stole Christmas!, Icelandic actor Stefan Karl is all about the holiday season. The actor, who is best known for playing the villain Robbie Rotten on Nickjr's popular Lazy Town, is embarking on his sixth season playing the Grinch on tour. Broadway.com caught up with the actor to discuss playing baddies, the intricacies of Nordic holiday customs and his worst Christmas ever.\nThis looks like an incredibly fun role to play.\nIt\u2019s a dream role. Playing the bad guy is always the best part to get. He\u2019s complicated, this Mr. Grinch. Does he hate Christmas or does he like it? I think he likes Christmas very much, at the end of the day. It\u2019s all about family.\nDo you enjoy celebrating the holidays?\nAbsolutely. I have four kids, so it\u2019s very important. Two years ago on the tour, we ended up in Toronto on Christmas. I couldn\u2019t manage to bring my family up there, so I was alone in a hotel room Christmas night. It was the worst Christmas I\u2019ve ever had. Last year, I brought the family on tour with me. I will never experience a Christmas like that again.\nAre your kids familiar with your character?\nThey are. They\u2019re 5 and 6, so they\u2019re accepting the fact that their dad is the Grinch. When I\u2019m in costume, they\u2019re not quite sure what to say. They like to say, \"Dad, stop fooling around. We know it\u2019s you.\"\nYou grew up in Iceland. Did you have access to Dr. Seuss\u2019 books there?\nOh yes, absolutely. When I was a kid, my mom read the story to me, for sure. When I got the chance to play the Grinch, it was a perfect match. We were made for each other, I think. How Seuss plays with the language\u2014it\u2019s fun as an actor to play with.\nHow do you celebrate Christmas in Iceland?\nIt\u2019s a little different. January 6 is what we call the 13th of Christmas\u2014the last day of Christmas. Thirteen days before, the Santa Clauses start visiting us. In Iceland, we have 13 Santa Clauses. Each one of them is like the Grinch. They come to town and they steal the sausages and the roast beast. The next one comes and steals another piece of food. Then another one comes and wakes everybody up in the night. And the last one comes on the night of the December 24; he steals all the candles. These Santa Clauses do exactly as the Grinch does.\nI can honestly say I have never heard of this before.\nYeah, they clean the house of all food and gifts. Instead of stockings, we put our shoes in the window. If the kids behave, they get a little toy in their shoe as a thank-you gift from Santa Claus for stealing everything.\nIf this all leads up to Christmas, how do you celebrate Christmas Day?\nAll the 13 Santa Clauses have arrived from the mountains, where they live, on the December 24. They kind of roam around during the holidays until the 13th of Christmas\u2014January 6. Then they all leave together back to the mountains. That\u2019s when it\u2019s a new year and we have these big fires all over town when we burn all the Christmas wrappings. We basically burn Christmas away.\nThis seems a little scary for children.\nDid you know the Santa Clauses have a mother? Her name is Gryla. She has a black cat as a pet, who is huge like a horse. If a child did not get a new piece of clothing for Christmas, the cat would come and take you, bring you up to the mountain, and Gryla would boil you and eat you.\nStrangely, these stories do share elements with How The Grinch Stole Christmas!\nI haven\u2019t done any thorough research on it, but I have a feeling that Dr. Seuss might have been inspired by these Icelandic, Nordic sagas. I\u2019m sure that Dr. Seuss had heard about that when he wrote The Grinch. At the end of the day with our customs\u2014just as it is in The Grinch\u2014the message is that it\u2019s all about family. We don\u2019t need Christmas trees, we don\u2019t need packages; we just need to be together. That\u2019s what The Grinch is all about. I am positive that at some point, Dr. Seuss was exposed to these stories.\nWhen you did The Grinch in Los Angeles in 2009, you played opposite John Larroquette, who won a Tony Award for How To Succeed In Business Without Really Trying. What was it like working with him?\nHe was playing the narrator, Old Max. It was fabulous. We always joked about, \"Why are you in a dog costume?\" That was John Larroquette\u2019s first musical experience. We worked very well together. We had great talks.\nWhat did you two bond over?\nHe\u2019s a lover of good music. He was very fond of an Icelandic music group called Gus Gus. He\u2019s a music nerd.\nAre there moments where kids in the Grinch audience become overly frightened?\nFor sure. There are moments in the show where kids freak out completely. They\u2019re so afraid of the Grinch.\nDo you attempt to comfort them?\nIt depends. The Grinch is the only character in the story that kind of has a permit to break the fourth wall and talk to the audience, if need be. There have been places where I had to turn out and say, \"It\u2019s OK! It\u2019ll be fine.\" Or I\u2019ll say, \"Can you please take that kid away? I can\u2019t hear myself.\" The Grinch is, of course, rude. Once, in a scene when the Grinch is being very dark and cruel, the green spotlights are on him and he says to Whoville, \"I\u2019m going to steal Christmas forever!\" there\u2019s a three-second silence, and this little voice came from the balcony saying, \"Grinch, I love you!\" I literally ran off stage laughing.\nSee Karl in How The Grinch Stole Christmas! at Procter & Gamble Hall at the Aronoff Center for the Arts from November 27 through December 1.",

        "raw_content": "The role of media in the GENOCIDE, A Book to read\nEdited by Allan Thompson\nThis is the first book to explore both sides of that media equation. The book examines how local radio and print media were used as a tool of hate, encouraging neighbours to turn against each other. It also presents a critique of international media coverage of the cataclysmic events in Rwanda. Bringing together local reporters and commentators from Rwanda, high-profile Western journalists, and leading media theorists, this is the only book to identify and probe the extent of the media\u2019s accountability. It also examines deliberations by the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda on the role of the media in the genocide.\nThis book is a startling record of the dangerous influence that the media can have when used as a political tool or when news organizations and journalists fail to live up to their responsibilities. The authors put forward suggestions for the future by outlining how we can avoid censorship and propaganda, and by arguing for a new responsibility in media reporting. The book includes an opening statement from Kofi Annan and an introduction by Senator Rom\u00e9o Dallaire.\nAllan Thompson is a Professor of Journalism at Carleton University in Ottawa, Canada, and a columnist with the Toronto Star, Canada\u2019s largest circulation daily newspaper. After working as a reporter with the Toronto Star for 17 years, Thompson took up a teaching position at Carleton in 2003 and now heads a media capacity-building project in Rwanda called the Rwanda Initiative.\nRead his ongoing blog.\nSource; http://www.idrc.ca/rwandagenocide/",

Wylie)\nThe Grand Canyon University Men\u2019s Rugby team has announced that one of its top players, Maceo Brown, has been selected to represent GCU as part of the USA Falcons\u2019 squad. Brown is one of only 16 players across the United States chosen to be part of this prestigious event. The Falcons will compete in the AF International 7s Preseason Tournament in Manchester, England, this Saturday and Sunday, Oct. 6 and 7.\nThis weekend has been long-awaited for Brown and his teammates, since he has been training with the squad for nearly nine months. Brown was a standout performer for the Lopes last season, and was named as a USA Rugby All-American last season. Brown was one of the key reasons why the Lopes qualified for the Round of 16 of the 2018 D1A Rugby Playoffs for the first time in their history last April. Brown is only one of five players to be a contracted member of the U.S. Olympic team.\nThe Falcons will face five different international 7s squads in the span of 48 hours this weekend, facing off against Spain, England, Germany, Ireland and France. The round-robin competition will not only give Brown a chance to win this tournament, but also possibly earn him a spot on the USA Eagles that will compete in the HSBC World Rugby Sevens Series 2019, Tokyo 2020 Olympics and World Cup 2022 events.\nWhile his now-former head coach is ecstatic for this international opportunity for Brown, he\u2019s also very pleased about the road that this honor could pave for Brown\u2019s former Lopes\u2019 teammates, and those Lopes\u2019 Rugby players to follow.\n\u201cWe\u2019re on the radar,\u201d said Wyper. \u201cIt\u2019s a huge deal for the program to have a player who came through our ranks to now be on the national team. Hopefully, we can continue to build and produce more great athletes.\u201d\nLopes\u2019 fans will have to set their alarms to follow along with the first match for Brown and the Falcons, since they will square off against Spain at 2:40 am Arizona time Saturday morning.

        "title": "Dexter: An Accurate Portrayal of Domestic Violence",
        "raw_content": "Dexter: An Accurate Portrayal of Domestic Violence\nBy Ryan Folmsbee\nWarning: The following article discusses domestic violence, and the impact abuse can have on victims. If you or someone you know might be in danger, visit The National Domestic Violence Hotline at http://www.thehotline.org/, or call 1-800-799-7233.\nLast August marked the 10 year anniversary of Showtime\u2019s hit series DEXTER, and Showtime released a new trailer in celebration. Based on the novel Darkly Dreaming Dexter, the show follows Dexter, a mild-mannered forensic nerd by day, murderer of murderers by night. Dexter stands as a testament to the anti-hero, and is one of the most entertaining character studies in a television drama. Rather than diving into the show\u2019s complex ethical and moral ambiguity, this article focuses on an unrecognized aspect of the show that deserves praise. The first season\u2019s portrayal of domestic violence between Dexter\u2019s girlfriend, Rita, and her ex-husband, Paul Bennett, is an accurate representation of what domestic violence looks like in our society, and DEXTER deserves recognition for accomplishing such realistic, accurate drama.\nDexter and Rita on DEXTER\nI work as a therapist for a domestic violence program. I see victims of domestic violence for individual therapy and run a therapy group for offenders of domestic violence. A takeaway from my time with abusers is a pattern of emotional and verbal abuse that occurs in violent relationships, called the Cycle of Domestic Violence. Domestic violence tends to follow a pattern, which the cycle breaks down into three stages: Honeymoon, Tension Building, and Explosion. Each part of the cycle is its own form of abuse, which leads into the next. Rita\u2019s storyline in the first season of DEXTER with her ex-husband, Paul Bennett, follows this cycle directly and is a realistic example of the ways abusers gain power and control from their victims after becoming physically violent. In this article, I wish to discuss the three phases in the Cycle of Domestic Violence, and the scenes in DEXTER that showcase the cycle.\nPhase 1: Honeymooning\nAbusive relationships typically begin in the honeymooning phase. In this phase, abusers attempt to portray themselves in a positive light. This comes in the form of buying gifts, providing support, and investing themselves in the relationship entirely. In every way possible, they will attempt to paint themselves as the perfect partner. When the batterer eventually becomes abusive, victims are forced to blame themselves for the abuse, because the abuser was such a perfect partner before. This defines the effectiveness of honeymooning.\nPaul Bennett on DEXTER\nIt\u2019s important to note that honeymooning looks similar to what most new relationships look like. When we begin seeing someone, we want to put our best foot forward and do a little extra for our new significant other. The important difference with honeymooning is that these actions are intended to lure their victim into believing this is how the abuser is as a person. By honeymooning their victim, abusers lay the groundwork to potentially remove their victim\u2019s power and control over the relationship.\nREAD: A bleak future for America? Learn more about the dangers of normalizing the alt-right!\nWhen we meet Rita\u2019s ex-husband Paul in DEXTER, he is introduced in a manner that is representative of honeymooning. Paul takes care of his children, makes them breakfast, and seems to be doing everything he can to right his wrongs. He quits drugs and owns up to his past abuse. He even gives Rita flowers.\nDespite his good gestures, you can feel Paul\u2019s control in his actions. He brings flowers for Rita after entering her home without permission. He gives her the flowers in front of their kids, pressuring her to accept them. These are the reasons honeymooning is considered abusive behavior. While not verbally or physically abusive, honeymooning is a form of control over victims, and is strategic behavior to set up abuse in the future.\nPhase 2: Tension-building\nPaul\u2019s tension with Rita grows as his control over her fades.\nAfter honeymooning, abusers are typically back in the lives of their victims. With this opportunity, abusers will attempt to manipulate the relationship in order to gain power and control over their victim. This commonly means controlling where their victim goes, who they talk to, etc. Batterers justify these actions by reminding their victim of the person they were during the honeymooning phase. Ultimately, the abuser has created a relationship that allows them to exert power and control, and will begin attempting to exert that power. But their attempts at control are eventually met with resistance, causing tension to build within the relationship.\nIn Paul\u2019s case, he is able to get supervised visits with his children and Rita. He convinces Rita to allow weekend visits, and gets an opportunity to be a part of their lives. Paul consistently pushes the boundaries of these rules by insisting on more time with his children, or getting upset when he\u2019s denied what he wants.\nREAD: Need a new comedy to watch over break? Here\u2019s every reason college students should check out NEW GIRL!\nThe best example of this tension building is in episode 9, titled \u201cFather Knows Best.\u201d Rita takes the children for a week, conflicting with Paul\u2019s weekend with them. Upon hearing he could not see his children, Paul yells at Rita, and eventually smacks a cup from the dining room table. While not physically abusive towards Rita, Paul was successfully able to scare Rita and communicate to her the danger that he is capable of before storming out. Paul successfully scared Rita in a manner that kept him out of any trouble and affirmed the power he could have over her.\nOver time, the arguments increase in severity and occurrence, becoming more and more abusive until\u2026\nPhase 3: Acute Battering Episode\nAfter getting sent back to jail, Paul continues the cycle of abuse by using his children to speak with Rita.\n\u2026there is an acute battering episode. This is the phase that likely includes physical abuse, and is when the victim is in the most danger. The majority of residents in women\u2019s shelters have just experienced an acute battering episode, and are usually in the shelter due to police involvement or fear for their safety.\nRather than having Paul physically abuse Rita, DEXTER showcases Paul\u2019s acute battering episode in an interesting way. Paul shows up drunk at Rita\u2019s house, refusing to leave. He forces her to have an argument. Fearing for her life, Rita allows Paul inside, where he attempts to rape her. Rita is able to escape, but only after calling the police, which is a common ending to this phase.\nAfter the acute battering episode, the cycle starts over at the beginning, and the abuser again honeymoons his/her victim. This typically means apologizing for their abuse, saying \u201cit\u2019ll never happen again.\u201d They become the partner recognizable before the tension building. Some batterers will even attend anger management or batterer\u2019s intervention classes, in an attempt to win back their victim. But once they\u2019ve found themselves back in the lives of their victim, the cycle again continues.\nIt requires a significant incident to break the cycle. This usually means police involvement, the victim being relocated to a shelter, or in Rita\u2019s case\u2026\nhttps://storage.googleapis.com/storage.comicsverse.com/uploads/2016/10/mp4.mp4\n\u2026Dexter smacking Paul over the head with a frying pan, dragging him out of the house, and setting him up to be sent back to jail.\nUnfortunately, not all victims of domestic violence are able to be saved like Rita was. Nearly 20 people per minute are physically abused by an intimate partner in the United States, and the majority of women report that they have experienced some form of abuse in any past relationship.\nIt is critical that our society comes to accept that we have an issue with violence in our own households. Domestic violence continues to be a part of our society that we prefer to keep in the shadows, which is the environment abusers need to continue their patterns of violence. Educating ourselves on what abusive relationships look like is key, and DEXTER successfully captured what an abusive relationship can look like. As a domestic violence therapist, I encourage you to re-watch the first season of DEXTER, and educate others on what domestic violence looks like in our society.\nTagsDomestic violenceDexterMichael C.

Join us this year in Boston!\nI\u2019ve posted here in the JMP Blog about the American Marketing Association\u2019s Advanced Research Techniques (ART) Forum and the impressive work that\u2019s presented there every year. As co-chair, I am doubly excited for this year\u2019s conference, which will take place June 26 \u2013 29 in Boston, MA.\nWe had an amazing group of paper submissions that we used to build the program schedule. Take a look. You'll see sessions on such topics as Social Networking, Market Segmentation, and analyzing Large and Unstructured data. I\u2019ll be chairing one of two sessions on Choice Modeling, and my conference co-chair, Rex Du, will be chairing a session on Marketing Metrics. We\u2019ll also have a full slate of tutorials to choose from the Sunday before the official conference begins. Among the tutorials are Introduction to Discrete Choice Experiments, Probability Models for Customer-Base Analysis, and Leveraging Online Search Trends in Marketing Research.\nOne of the things I love about ART Forum is the interaction between academic researchers and marketing research professionals. The conference sessions and format are designed to encourage discussion. In every session, academics present alongside experts who are working in industry. Post-presentation discussions from market leaders show how to work through problems that might happen when implementing a new technique, as well as analyze the gains from doing so. This year, our presenters have made a special effort to make sure white papers and how-to guides are part of the conference take-home materials.\nBetween the tutorials for basic training and the cutting-edge research techniques on display at the main conference, ART Forum is a great training opportunity for people who are new to marketing research as well as for experienced professionals.\nEarly bird registration ends this Thursday, so register soon. I hope to see you in Boston next month!",

Then she had to figure out what came next.\nWe are naturally comfortable with the \u201cWhat\u201d and \u201cWhere\u201d of what we do. But it should start with the \u201cWhy\u201d.\nFor the past 10 years I\u2019ve been on a no regrets tour.\nBefore that I was a Division President at IDG. Many people know IDG for the self help For Dummies books. For a long time the business grew exponentially, but by 2006 the economy weakened and media was splintered. At the same time, my mother\u2019s health started to decline.\nSo I left my job and took care of her full-time for five years. Caring for an elderly parent, or anyone, is a marathon. It was a horrible/wonderful thing. And I\u2019d do it all over again.\nAfter she passed, I wanted to continue living a life with no regret. And what I wanted to do most was to help people.\nI decided to become either an Elder Care Manager or a Career Coach.\nIt was a hard choice. I felt strongly about what I saw and learned while caring for my mother, but I had always been a coaching manager at work. I didn\u2019t want to throw that away \u2014 I wanted to use it and play to my strengths. I decided to become a Career Coach and started my practice in 2013.\nI love it. And I\u2019m able to use all the lessons I\u2019ve learned from my career in the corporate world and as a caretaker. Here\u2019s the lesson that sticks with me:\nAt some point, no matter what you do, or how you try to avoid it, you\u2019re going to do something unbelievably stupid. The test is how you learn from it, how you recover and turn it into a positive.\nThere are always issues that create negative impacts on us personally or professionally. Instead of those issues, it\u2019s about how you cope and overcome. This is what coaching is about.

        "raw_content": "22 Jan Holy Waiting Lists, Batman! Cornerstone Neighborhoods Soon in Muskego, Brookfield and Franklin\nYou know, it\u2019s so exciting when we announce that we\u2019re going to be opening up a new Cornerstone Development neighborhood and begin to go through the approvals. We leave a meeting and there will be lots of people in the lobby that want to sign up and hear more!\nMuskego has just taken off and with Brookfield there are just all kinds of people waiting for us to launch. These neighborhoods will be launching in just a few months. We love it when we see people who are so excited about our ideas.\nSo let\u2019s do a brief thumbnail sketch of the locations for each of these neighborhoods:\nThe Glen at Pellmann Farm in Muskego is on the south side of Woods Road near Kurtz Lane. It\u2019s between Moorland Road and Highway Y (Racine Avenue).\nOur neighborhood in Franklin, The Glen at Park Circle, is located just south of 76th Street at Ryan Road.\nAnd The Glen at Woodside Creek in Brookfield is on the south side of Lisbon Road a few hundred feet east of Lilly Road.\nPeople have been contacting us for quite awhile regarding The Glen at Pellmann Farm in Muskego. This neighborhood will feature 34 homes and we strongly encourage anybody who is interested to step forward because we are also looking into additional Muskego sites. Right now, there is a waiting list of more than 250 people for these 34 homes, but just because someone\u2019s name is on a list doesn\u2019t necessarily mean they will actually buy a home. To be fair to everybody, we will be taking things in the chronological order in which people have showed interest in these homes.\nMeanwhile, in Brookfield we will have what appears to be our last meeting for final approval on March 12th and we hope to start moving dirt for The Glen at Woodside Creek this spring.\nIn Franklin, we just need to have go in to get architectural approvals, lay it out for final grading and we\u2019ll be good to go. In both Brookfield and Franklin we hope to begin moving dirt late this spring.\nAs we look at these three developments and the huge early interest we\u2019ve been having for all of them, we should step back a bit and look at what all of this says about the popularity of ranch-style condominiums as a whole. The word \u201chot\u201d really comes to mind! And why wouldn\u2019t it be? Interest rates are low and people are selling their homes quickly. America is aging and people want low-to-no maintenance, hassle-free living, and there aren\u2019t that many offered in this area. So I think it speaks not only to the marketplace but to the demographics and what we have to offer at such a good value. It kind of all converges like a \u201cperfect storm\u201d here in the Midwest.\nThe howling winds of winter will continue to bite us for the next couple of months and that\u2019s why many people think it would be better to wait until March to start looking for their new home. But the reality is, right now is a better time. The biggest reason is this\u2013you\u2019re out in front of the crowd. If you want to buy tickets to see Bonnie Raitt and James Taylor, do you want to wait until everybody steps up to order theirs and then see what you get? Or would you rather be first in line?\nIn March every year we sell the most homes. That\u2019s when everybody back dates their calendars to project a summer move, and their planning is such that March becomes a big time frame to look at new homes. But don\u2019t get caught up in the thundering herd!\nI encourage you to keep reading our blogs and I will continue to have updates on the status of each specific neighborhood so everyone will know when we may be releasing homes for purchase. You can find us on our Facebook page as well as our website, cornerstonedevelopment.com.\nMore questions? Please give us a call anytime at (262) 932-4188.",

        "title": "Lessons from Chip and Joanna Gaines",
        "raw_content": "By kaldridgeMarch 22, 2018Lifestyle\nBy this point that everyone has read The Magnolia Story. This story has really stuck with me, its the humbleness and their unwavering faith in the Lord that amazes me. Life wasn\u2019t a perfect picture for Chip and Joanna, there were bumps and challenges along the way. There wasn\u2019t a clear direction for them, there wasn\u2019t an \u2018aha\u2019 moment where they realized what God\u2019s plan was for them. Instead, they took each moment and made the most of it. They didn\u2019t question why things fell into their laps, instead they capitalized on them and made the most of them.\nWhat an unbelievable testimony of faith! When I watch Chip and Joanna and read about their lives, there is never a question in my mind that they had unwavering faith. They knew that no matter what happened God was going to be behind them. So they found joy within the hard and difficult circumstances.\nWhich is where we get what I believe is the biggest lesson from their story. Finding happiness and joy in the difficult times. We have this belief that once we achieve our desired goals or life aspirations that then we will be happy. However, as Chip and Joanna explain through their story, that isn\u2019t the key to happiness. \u201cIt was such a blessing to find myself thriving in the middle of the pain. Unless you find a way to do that, there\u2019s always going to be this fake illusion that once you get there\u2013wherever \u201cthere\u201d is for you\u2013you\u2019ll be happy. But that\u2019s just not life. If you can\u2019t find happiness in the ugliness, you\u2019re not going to find it in beauty, either.\u201d\n\u2015 Joanna Gaines\nWhen I moved from Indiana to Arizona I had this belief that I wouldn\u2019t be truly happy again until I was closer to family, and it has taken me over two years to realize that this was not the case. I was looking at my life through the lens of what could have been instead of embracing what it was. It was making me miserable, until one day my husband snapped me out of my funk. He was blunt but honest, \u201cThis is where we are, get over it and accept it.\u201d It was a punch to the gut, but it was true. Happiness is a choice, and once I accepted that fact, things started to brighten. I was able to see past the day to day and embrace the challenges in life with happiness. There are still bad days, but I am able to put them into perspective and move past them. It\u2019s a slow process changing the way you view happiness, but once you start you will see how much joy you were missing out on! And that\u2019s where I think Joanna speaks so much truth, they have so many blessings, but they were happy when they were broke and things were hard, which allows them to be happy when they are successful!\nI love how Chip approaches life, it\u2019s one of the best ways I\u2019ve ever heard to find true joy. \u201cI told myself that I was going to live the rest of my life as if it were Saturday.\u201d\u2015 Chip Gaines If you treated each day like it was Saturday, what would you do? Would you do the things you truly enjoyed? Would you start making real changes? I\u2019ve been struggling with this one for the past year, especially after I read The Magnolia Story. I wanted to live each day as if it were Saturday, but I was scared. What if I wasn\u2019t good enough at my dreams, what if my dreams were unattainable, what if people made fun of me? I\u2019ve always wanted to start blogging, traveling and trying new things. But I never thought I\u2019d be good enough or that anyone would care. And while those fears are still very real for me. The lesson I took away from Chip is that, fear is natural, but letting it cripple you is where things get dangerous. Take strides each day to live like each day was Saturday. One step at a time will get you to your dream!\nLastly, if we were to take a moment and stop planning our lives out, we might start to enjoy the surprises in life. As Joanna says, \u201cIf I had planned my life, it never would have ended up like this. So maybe it\u2019s kind of fun not to plan. Maybe it\u2019s more fun just to see where life takes you.\u201d\u2015 Joanna Gaines As hard as it may be to let go of control, it may just be the very best thing we could do. Let Go and Let God. Let Him take you down the path you were meant to go on. It will exceed your wildest expectations!\nBeing in Phoenix has helped me to grow up in so many ways that I never would have had I not left the comfort of Indiana. It forced my husband and I to rely on each other and not others for help and support. The move has taught us how to handle our differences and how to handle the challenges thrown at us. I never would have imagined living in Arizona, but it has been such a unique and wonderful experience. Letting go and letting God direct your life is the biggest blessing you could give yourself!\nSo today, I pray that you take time to care for yourself. To embrace happiness, to live life to the fullest, and to enjoy the twists and turns that come along the way! Make the most of every day you are given!",

        "raw_content": "Home Health Autism and ADHD are Over Diagnosed\nIn an article on the The Daily Mail today, Dr. Mike Shooter has had an excerpt of his new book released, and it is quite a harrowing read.\nGoing a little into the back story, he was speaking to one of his former trainees, who is now a respected and experienced psychologist, said that around 75% of the kids he sees are Autistic and/or have ADHD. This was met with Dr. Shooters horror, with him explicitly saying that Autism and ADHD do exist, but the numbers are too high. Whereas 25 years it was under diagnosed, and only those on the lower end of the spectrum were correctly diagnosed, now it\u2019s the go to condition.\nA bit like when I was a kid and everyone in my class bar me had asthma. The fact that all the parents smoked like trains indoors didn\u2019t seem to occur to doctors that may be the issue.\nThese diagnoses come from a few factors. Lazy, or over stretched consultants, parents who NEED a diagnosis to negate their poor parenting choices, and teachers who want to use the kids as political pawns to up their funding.\nDoctors, even experienced consultants are being intimidated by parents \u2018because they need a mobility car complete with blue badge\u2019 (seriously)! Or they \u2018NEED little Timmy to have a specialist education\u2019 at the cost of around \u00a3100,000 a year to the tax payer.\nThen there are the teachers, usually in underfunded and deprived areas, who are trying to use their charges as pawns to get additional funding per child. This can be to either get better equipment, or to simply bring the school up to par with the league tables.\nI have a theory, and it seems to be being proven right. The vast majority of cases seem to be in deprived areas where neither parent works, and no basic routine is in place, meaning that the child is allowed to become feral and discipline isn\u2019t working because it isn\u2019t enforced at home.\nThis is where things get more interesting though. The kids that are being diagnosed as having EDB (emotional behavioural difficulties) are then sucking other kids into behaving like they do, and the next thing you know, the poor teacher who has no authority in the classroom as a room of 30+ unruly kids that they can\u2019t teach.\nAlso, in these deprived areas, it isn\u2019t uncommon to see brand new cars (paid for by the tax payer), and the kids to all be in high end clothes and shoes, and as soon as that diagnosis is made, for it to be worn like some kind of badge of honour and lets the parents off the hook because they haven\u2019t done the best job at raising their little darlings.\nSo yes, ladies and gents, Autism and ADHD do exist, but you can try and use it because of your shortcomings. They can be truly debilitating, and exceptionally cruel.\nEU Food Labelling Laws \u2013 Madness or Life Saving?",

In the months leading up to the vote, the battle is heating up. In particular, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (LDS), commonly known as the Mormon church, has become the biggest opponent of Proposition 2.\nThis week, an anonymous, pro-medical marijuana billboard showed up. In voicing support for Prop 2, the ad appears to target the Mormon church specifically.\nUtah\u2019s Proposition 2\nIn November, Utah residents will vote on Proposition 2. If it passes, the initiative would make medical marijuana legal in the state.\nDespite relatively high popular support\u2014a July survey found 66 percent of Utah voters support Prop 2\u2014the Salt Lake City-based Mormon church has spoken out against the initiative.\nBut now, it looks like somebody is pushing back against the church, which holds significant political sway in the state. Earlier this week, a billboard showed up along Interstate 15 encouraging support for Prop 2.\nBut the ad took a very specific approach. It quoted Mormon scripture as the basis for supporting Prop 2.\nThe billboard quoted from a book called the Doctrine and Covenants.

        "title": "Best books of 2017 \u2013 Derek Parker writer",
        "raw_content": "When we look back at 2017 we will probably remember it as a year of minor issues that turned into major crises, peculiar utterances from odd people, and opportunities that were not so much missed as foolishly fumbled. Throughout all this there were some good books across a range of subjects.\nOne of the most interesting was Minding Her Own Business: Colonial Businesswomen in Sydney by Catherine Bishop (published by NewSouth). Delving deep into primary sources, Bishop examines the critical role played in women in the fledgling colony, as they established and ran enterprises as varied as schools and pubs. Even though it was legally difficult for women to hold property they often found ways around the rules. The authorities, aware of how much the colony needed entrepreneurs, usually looked the other way. Bishop provides plenty of fascinating stories as well as a chapter on \u2018colourful\u2019 characters. It adds up to an entertaining and insightful account, and it is no surprise that the book won the prestigious Ashurst Business Literature Prize.\nUnlike Bishop, David Hunt makes little claim to be historically reliable in True Girt (Black Inc), a follow-up to the equally satirical Girt. It covers the era of bearded bushrangers and hardy pioneers, such as John Horrocks, an explorer who was, apparently, shot dead by a bad-tempered camel called Harry. It is hard to tell what is real and what Hunt has made up, but it is a good romp and reminds us that, important as history is, it should not always be taken too seriously.\nTaking the vein of cultural larrikinism in another direction is Trigger Warning: Deplorable Cartoons by Bill Leak (Wilkinson). It brings together many of his cartoons from 2016, illustrating how the pomposity of the professional whingers of the Left could be punctured by a deft pen. But Leak was an equal-opportunity offender, and he was entirely happy to make fun of anyone who deserved it (ie, pretty well everyone in politics). It also required real courage to portray crazy jihadists, union thugs and nut-job bureaucrats as what they are \u2013 a quality not seen often enough. He leaves a legacy, and he will be missed. A good companion is The Bleak Picture (HarperCollins), the complete story of Leak\u2019s 23 years at The Australian. There are interviews with some of his victims, including Philip Ruddock, Tony Abbott, and Alexander Downer (who generally took things in the spirit in which they were intended), and essays by some of Leak\u2019s colleagues in the media. He leaves a legacy, and he will be missed.\nSeveral of Leak\u2019s cartoons deal with Pauline Hanson, who he depicted as one of the big winners of 2016. Anna Broinowski, in Please Explain: The Rise, Fall and Rise Again of Pauline Hanson (Viking), agrees. The book is based on Broinowski\u2019s SBS documentary and it has similar strengths and weaknesses. When most of the commentariat are happy to abuse Hanson from their comfy chairs Broinowski got up close and personal, following Hanson on the campaign trail and doing her best to understand her strange path through the political landscape. Broinowski also realises that a significant chunk of the national electorate feels disenfranchised, ignored, and even abused, and Hanson provides a genuine connection. The book is on less firm ground when Broinowski tries to tie Hanson, Trump and Brexit together; there is a sense that she is stretching metaphors. Nevertheless, Hanson looks like she is here to stay, and Please Explain is a good attempt at finding out why.\nFinding the centre of Australia is a tricky undertaking but Scott Bevan believes that is on the edge: specifically, Sydney Harbour. In The Harbour (Simon & Schuster) he argues that as the birthplace of white settlement in Australia it has a special place in our collective consciousness. He delves into the history, examining the impact of the harbour on the city\u2019s social development. Bevan, who has written extensively about art, also looks at it as an inspiration for painters and writers. True, on a good day the harbour has a sparkling, translucent quality, and it is no surprise that a view of it bumps up real estate prices by astronomical amounts. Bevan believes in hands-on history, and he makes a point of exploring it by ferry, barge, yacht, and kayak. He finds some odd nooks and crannies, and plenty of colourful characters as well. There are times when he overdoes the \u2018true Australia\u2019 angle \u2013 plenty of non-Sydneysiders would dispute the claim \u2013 but nevertheless The Harbour is a remarkable piece of work.\nA book which has been the subject of dispute is No Front Line: Australia\u2019s Special Forces in Afghanistan (Allen & Unwin) by Chris Masters. The result of many years of research, including lengthy periods of \u2018embedding\u2019 with the elite troops, Masters is at his best when explaining how soldiers dealt with the ambiguity of the conflict in Afghanistan. Given that the Special Forces are a tightly-knit band of brothers, it is astonishing that Masters got so close to them. Masters was required to clear the final draft of the book with the ADF but there is no sense of this being a sanitised, \u2018official\u2019 history. The controversy around the book was due to claims of mis-representation by VC-winner Ben Roberts-Smith, over the killing of an Afghan civilian who, while unarmed, was a likely spotter for insurgent snipers. Accounts vary, and if anything the incident underlines the difficulty of battlefield decisions. But this incident is only a small part of a large book, and should not be seen as something to disparage Masters\u2019 achievement.\nCompared to Masters magisterial tome, Leigh Sales\u2019 essay On Doubt (Melbourne University Press) is a small piece of work, although not short on insights. Part of the MUP Big Themes series, the essay itself was first published several years ago; the value in this re-release is a lengthy addendum that Sales provides to take account of the growth of social media as a central driver of news, both real and fake. She has become increasingly sceptical of social media over the past few years as it has become less of a way to discuss ideas and more likely to be an echo chamber of extremism and a vehicle to shout down anyone of a different view. The role of the journalist, she says, is not to advocate one cause or another (whatever one\u2019s private feelings might be) but to investigate and question, looking for the truth behind the PR. She readily admits that this is difficult to do but the point is that it must be attempted. Given the prestige attached to Sales\u2019 position and seniority, it might be hoped that On Doubt will be read and digested by her colleagues in the media. But this reviewer, for one, is not holding his breath waiting for it.\nThe obsessive, pack-driven mentality of the media is a crucial point in of one of the best novels of the year, An Isolated Incident by Emily Maguire (Picador). The incident is the murder of a young woman in a country town, sparking a police investigation and a journalistic obsession with the pretty-dead-girl-of-the-hour. The story is told from revolving perspectives, the key one being that of Chris, the older sister of the victim and barmaid of the local pub. Anyone wanting a resolved, happy ending will not find it here, but Maguire has a gift for complex characterisation and an ear for dialogue. Despite the dark subject matter and the gruelling course of the narrative there are surprisingly beautiful passages in the book, lifting it out of the hackneyed crime genre.\nAnother outstanding novel is Josephine Wilson\u2019s Extinctions (University of Western Australia Publishing), winner of the 2017 Miles Franklin Award. It revolves around a retired engineer, Professor Frederick Lothian, as he tries to make sense of his life, and that of his late wife\u2019s life, through the objects that have accrued around him. It is not an easy process but eventually he begins to see beyond the secrets and lies, and moves towards acceptance of the past and re-engagement with the world. A series of odd events pushes him closer to his neighbour Jan, a practical woman who ends up as a balance for Fred\u2019s own focus on theory. It would be easy to say that little actually happens in the novel, but it is about people, how they grow, how they look back, and how they find redemption. So in that sense, everything happens, underscored by Wilson\u2019s lyrical, careful prose.\nIncorrigible Optimist: A Political Memoir (Random) shows Gareth Evans at both his best and worst. He is most often remembered as a minister in the Hawke-Keating governments but in fact much of this book deals with his subsequent work with the UN and a range of other international bodies. He is certainly a man of quick, organised intelligence and great energy, and he has a knack for cutting through bureaucratic obfuscation and meandering. He loves to file things, which turned out to be a useful habit when recounting the details of critical meetings. Yes, a smart fellow, but sometimes he seems to be overly impressed with himself. Saying that Australia should engage more with Asia, or that China is a rising power, or that Trump cares little for international rules and agencies is not exactly breaking new ground, although he seems to think he is making remarkable discoveries. Well, Evans does put the view that a streak of megalomania is necessary for anyone who wants to achieve anything.\nThis reviewer had a difficult time deciding on the winner of the Trees Are Dying For This award, for the most unnecessary book of the year; there were many strong contenders. One of the best was an overseas entrant, Hillary Clinton\u2019s book What Happened (Simon & Schuster). It purports to be about the 2016 presidential election campaign but she continually wanders off the point to remind you that she was, and still is, the best qualified, the smartest, the most experienced, the \u2026 you get the picture. You finish this rather lengthy book with the feeling that Hillary thought the election campaign was an extended policy debate when it was really a revolution looking for a place to happen. The book should have been titled What Happened!? For a better account of how Hillary lost, readers might look at Shattered: Inside Hillary Clinton\u2019s Doomed Campaign (Crown) by Jonathan Allen and Amie Parnes.\nBut in the end the TADFT gong went to Making Modern Australia: The Whitlam Government\u2019s 21st Century Agenda (Monash University Press), a book of academic essays edited by Jenny Hocking (who has made a pretty good career out of Gough, with a two-volume biography). The basic tenet is that the priorities of the Whitlam government laid the foundation for everything \u2013 at least, everything good \u2013 that followed, up to now. There are some heavyweight contributors but it seems that no-one stopped to think that the idea was just, well, silly. The Whitlam era was more than four decades ago, so get over it, guys. As much as anything, the book shows that some people have just got way too much time on their hands.\nFor Professor Hocking, a certificate awaits your collection. It is printed, very cheaply, on recycled paper.\n\u2190 What next now IS is crumbling\n\u2018Womenomics\u2019, AI, and high performers \u2192",

The race, which was planned to raise money for military veterans, had been delayed because of fears about an unattended bag, and was then cancelled following the explosion.\nLater that day, a man disguised as a security guard stabbed eight people in a shopping centre in St Cloud, Minnesota before being shot and killed by an off-duty police officer. The attacker is believed to be of Somali-American origin and is reported to have asked victims if they were Muslim during the attack.\nAt roughly the same time in Manhattan, New York, a pressure cooker filled with shrapnel exploded, injuring 29 people. All those injured in the blast were released from hospital on Sunday. A second pressure cooker bomb, the same style as those that exploded during the Boston marathon in 2013, was discovered four blocks away and safely removed.\nAfghan-born US citizen Ahmad Khan Rahami, named as the suspect behind the New York bombs, was arrested on Monday morning.\nOvernight on Sunday, five explosive devices were discovered in a backpack in a rubbish bin in Elizabeth, New Jersey. Four of the bombs were safely removed, but one exploded as it was being investigated by a bomb disposal robot.\nAuthorities do not know whether the attacks were coordinated and the motive for them remains unclear.\nThe Islamic State has claimed that the Minnesota attacker was one of its fighters, but the FBI says it has not been able to find any link. The group has long called for \u201clone wolf\u201d attacks in the US and Europe, and as it is being beaten back on all fronts in Syria, Iraq, and Libya analysts have warned of a potential rise in international terrorist acts.",

        "raw_content": "There's no shame in not being famous\nPointing fingers at the people who once walked the red carpets and are now bagging groceries reveals a deeper American illness.\nAs Labor Day approached, and many of us prepared to celebrate work by doing little, if any, of it, a strange thing happened. A photo of a regular person bagging groceries went viral.\nThere was nothing extraordinary about the scene \u2014 a man in his late 50s, graying beard, stained shirt, a nametag that read \"Geoffrey\" \u2014 and yet a shopper felt compelled to take his photo and post it to social media, where Fox News picked it up.\nThe outlet's accompanying lede read: \"'Cosby Show' alum Geoffrey Owens, who played Elvin Tibideaux, the young doctor who married into the Cosby family on the famous sitcom, was photographed working at a Trader Joe's in New Jersey.\"\nWhat followed next was heartening. Most people called out the photo and the tweet for what it was \u2014 job shaming \u2014 and defended Owens for earning a decent living.\nOwens himself said he'd worked there for 15 months out of necessity while he pursued other acting gigs. He was hurt at first by the idea that anyone would think he needed to be embarrassed by this, but that \"the shame part didn't last very long,\" as so many reached out to pat him on the back.\nThe woman who posted the photo says she meant no ill will and has since taken down her social media accounts.\nMany of his fellow actors, for their part, stood up for other \"working actors.\" Tyler Perry offered him a job on his OWN television show. SAG-AFTRA, the actors' union, tweeted \"Thank you #GeoffreyOwens and all of the #ActorsWithDayJobs & artists who shared the work you do allowing you to make your art & make a living.\"\nThat's all very nice, of course. But put aside the obvious hypocrisy of Fox News, which routinely harangues celebrities for being out of touch with \"real America,\" seemingly shaming a guy for working at a grocery store.\nGawking at onetime celebrities who, for whatever reason, end up performing jobs our culture deems a mark of failure is gross, but hardly a new thing.\nIn 2011, the HuffPostCeleb Twitter account posted, \"Why is Nikki Blonsky working at a hair salon?\" after the \"Hairspray\" actress was spotted sweeping floors at a Long Island salon.\nType \"celebrities who now have normal jobs\" into Google and watch dozens of listicles pop up highlighting people who used to be famous doing jobs that don't make them famous anymore.\nThe Hollywood Reporter once featured \"Hollywood's Riches to Rags: 18 Stars Who Have Lost it All,\" including Brett Butler, Ed McMahon and Sly Stone, who at the time was homeless.\nVariety had a somewhat misleading photo spread of \"12 Stars Who Left Hollywood for Regular Jobs.\" It featured Amanda Bynes, whose departure from the limelight was precipitated by a very public and sad breakdown, Gene Hackman who essentially retired successfully at the age of 74, and Kevin Jonas, arguably still one of the most famous men on the planet.\nStill, you're meant to read with a sense of surprise and sadness for these poor souls who no longer live in the Photoshopped spotlight. Unsurprisingly, our culture clearly reveres celebrity over dignity.\nSure, you'll say. Just look at the guy in the White House.\nBut pointing fingers at the people who once walked the red carpets and are now bagging groceries reveals a deeper American illness. Owens wasn't shamed for working at Trader Joe's, which, by all accounts, is a terrific place to work. He was shamed for not being famous anymore. And that should disturb us all \u2014 because in this country, we worship at the altar of fame to such a degree, it corrupts our culture.\nMaybe Owens couldn't get enough work acting to support himself; there would be no shame in that. Acting is just one life pursuit among many. But maybe he likes his work-life balance.\nOr maybe he doesn't love being recognized all the time. Walking away from fame, whether by choice or necessity, isn't a bad thing. In fact for many, it's likely saved their lives, careers, families and basic dignity. More celebrities should probably try it.\nIf we had our priorities straight as a country, we'd consider leaving fame behind a mark of wisdom and character.\nThe Owens episode was good in that it brought always-welcome attention to the dignity of work. But it should also remind us that there's nothing wrong with not being famous.",

I picked up. \u201cHello?\u201d\n\u201cHi!\u201d Some unfamiliar female voice was overly happy to hear mine.\n\u201cHi!\u201d I said back, figuring I\u2019d play along and try to buy some time to figure out who on earth this was.\n\u201cDave?\u201d she asked.\n\u201cUhh, yee-ah,\u201d I said, slowly.\n\u201cHow are you!?\u201d she asked forcefully, still way too happy.\nI paused and analyzed the voice. Adult. Pre-middle age, probably in the 20s or 30s. Female. African-American. I ran through the list of people I know matching that description. No match. \u201cUmm, I\u2019m sorry, but I have no idea who this is,\u201d I said.\n\u201cYes you do!\u201d her enthusiasm was unwaning.\n\u201cUmm,\u201d I know, I know, I\u2019m just a stupid male, but I honestly was drawing a blank.\n\u201cIt\u2019s your lover,\u201d she said, tenderly and huskily enough to really freak me out.\nNow, I haven\u2019t had a date in eight months, so the likelihood of any female believing herself to be my lover is, well, really remote. Besides, I\u2019m of the persuasion that the act that most people associate with the endearing term \u201clover\u201d ought to wait until after marriage. So, very obviously, one of the people in this conversation was mistaken, and I was pretty sure it wasn\u2019t me.\n\u201cIt\u2019s your lover,\u201d she said again, pretty much the same way. I was starting to wonder if this wasn\u2019t a practical joke someone was pulling off on me. I know more than a few pranksters, after all. I decided to play it safe.\n\u201cI\u2026 don\u2019t have\u2026 one,\u201d I said finally.\nShe laughed. \u201cSure you do, Dave!\u201d And she said her name. I didn\u2019t know anybody by that name.\n\u201cI\u2019m pretty sure you\u2019ve got the wrong number. This is Dave Farquhar.\u201d\nShe let out a very embarrassed laugh. \u201cOh, I\u2019m so sorry,\u201d she said.\n\u201cThat\u2019s OK,\u201d I said. \u201cDon\u2019t worry about it.\u201d\nShe laughed some more. She was still laughing when I hung up the phone.\nI laid the phone down on its cradle, and it wasn\u2019t 30 seconds later that it was ringing again. I picked up again. \u201cHello?\u201d\nIt was the same woman again. Her mood changed quickly. Very quickly. She verified the phone number she dialed. Then she turned desperate. \u201cAre you visiting from out of town?\u201d Nope, this is my phone number, and I live alone. \u201cDid you just get this number?\u201d Nope, I\u2019ve had it for more than two years. I could hear the hurt. She didn\u2019t have to tell me the story. I could pretty much put it together myself. Boy meets girl. Boy sleeps with girl, probably promising something more later. Boy gets what he wants. Boy makes up a phone number and gives it to girl so he won\u2019t have to deal with commitment.\nTime to come clean \u2192\nOne thought on \u201cTwo phone calls, one weird, one sad\u201d\nInstant karma is gonna get that guy at some stage.\nhe should pray he NEVER sees her again, \"hell hath no fury\u2026\"",

        "raw_content": "Fonds 1674 - Alison Prentice fonds\nAlison Prentice fonds\n2.5 m of textual and graphic records and sound recordings (22 boxes)\nPrentice, Alison\nDr. Alison Prentice is a well known and distinguished Canadian historian specializing in the study of the history of education and women\u2019s history. She was born in Deleware in 1934 and twenty years after her family immigrated to Canada, she became a Canadian citizen in 1959. Her undergraduate years were spent attending Smith College in Massachusetts where she obtained a B.A. in 1955. She graduated from the University of Toronto with her M.A. in 1958 and after years of periodic study, research and teaching, she graduated with a Ph.D. from the same institution in 1974. From 1972-1975, she held a teaching position at Atkinson College, York University, where she taught the first course in Canada on women\u2019s history. In 1975, Prof. Prentice joined the faculty at the Ontario Institute of Studies in Education, Department of History and Philosophy, as the first female tenure-stream member. In 1983, she was appointed Professor. Upon her retirement from the University of Toronto in 1998, she was made Professor Emeritus.\nThroughout her lengthy career, she established herself as a pioneer in both the study of the history of education and women\u2019s history often combining the two areas of research. She was instrumental in establishing the women\u2019s history program at OISE and in 1983 founded the Centre for Women\u2019s Studies in Education. Through the Canadian Women\u2019s History Project, she initiated the collective endeavour that produced the first university-level textbook in Canadian women\u2019s history, Canadian Women: A History (1st edition 1988 ; 2nd edition 1996). She has authored, co-authored, contributed and/or edited over 30 books and has published over 30 articles and reviews in addition to giving countless lectures, seminars and talks.\nProf. Prentice has received many honours and she has been awarded for her scholarly work. Throughout the years, specific works have received awards including the Founder\u2019s Prize for best women\u2019s studies article (1986) and again for best anthology on the history of education in Canada (1992), as well as the Hilda Neatby Prize for best article in Canadian women\u2019s history (1987). In 1992 her book Schooling and Scholars in Nineteenth-Century Ontario co-authored with Susan Houston won the Book Prize from the Canadian Association for Foundations in Education. She has received two honorary doctorates, one each from the University of Guelph in 1993 and the University of Western Ontario in 1998. Also in 1998, the year of her retirement from the University of Toronto, the Ontario Historical Society honoured her by creating the Alison Prentice prize for best book in women\u2019s history. In that same year, she was made a fellow of the Royal Society of Canada..\nAlison Prentice lives with her husband, retired Physicist James Prentice in Victoria, B.C.. She continues to do research and remains Adjunct Professor at the University of Victoria.\nThis fonds consists of 3 accessions which together give a fairly complete documentation of Prof. Prentice\u2019s career as a scholar, mentor and teacher. Extensive correspondence, memos, e-mails, research notes and manuscripts found in various series document her scholarly contributions. Correspondence with students, letters of recommendation and her leadership on associations and projects document her wide influence among historians. Since she was a pioneer in the teaching of women\u2019s history, her teaching files found in Series 9 are important resources in studying women\u2019s history as an emerging discipline in higher education.\nPerhaps most importantly however, this fonds documents the network of Canadian academics, most of which were women, in the area of women\u2019s history, the history of education and women\u2019s studies in general. Many of Prof. Prentice projects and publications were collaborative and therefore the fonds documents her relationship with this network of women historians. It is also evident that through these collaborations, Prof. Prentice was not only at the centre of women\u2019s studies within her own generation but also influenced the next generation of scholars who have gone on to make their own contributions in history departments and women\u2019s studies programs throughout Canadian universities.\nProf Prentice is a pioneer in both teaching and researching women\u2019s history. As a result, these records will be of interest to anyone researching the evolution of women\u2019s history as a discipline, the teaching of the history of education and women\u2019s history as well the role of women in higher education.\nOpen except Restricted Access in Series 2 Correspondence and Series 4 Letters of Recommendation.

A Peaceful Rebellion\nEXCERPT FROM AN ARTICLE:\nHosni Mubarak, the Egyptian president, has resigned from his post, handing over power to the armed forces. Omar Suleiman, the vice-president, announced in a televised address that the president was \"waiving\" his office, and had handed over authority to the Supreme Council of the armed forces. Suleiman's short statement was received with a roar of approval and by celebratory chanting and flag-waving from a crowd of hundreds of thousands in Cairo's Tahrir Square, as well by pro-democracy campaigners who attended protests across the country on Friday. The crowd in Tahrir chanted \"We have brought down the regime\", while many were seen crying, cheering and embracing one another. Mohamed ElBaradei, an opposition leader, hailed the moment as being the \"greatest day of my life\", in comments to the Associated Press news agency. \"The country has been liberated after decades of repression,'' he said. \"Tonight, after all of these weeks of frustration, of violence, of intimidation ... today the people of Egypt undoubtedly [feel they] have been heard, not only by the president, but by people all around the world,\" our correspondent at Tahrir Square reported, following the announcement. \"The sense of euphoria is simply indescribable,\" our correspondent at Mubarak's Heliopolis presidential palace, where at least ten thousand pro-democracy activists had gathered, said.

The aim of our study was to describe how the volume and consistency of the bolus affect swallowing acoustic sound characteristics in healthy subjects. Twenty-three subjects aged from 20 to 59 years were included (13 women and 10 men). A microphone mounted on a stethoscope chest piece, positioned on the skin on the right side in front of the posteroinferior border of the cricoid cartilage, was used; it was connected to a computer for acoustic recordings. Each subject swallowed 2-, 5-, and 10-ml aliquots of water, yogurt, and mashed potato. Each bolus was administered once, with a period of at least 30 s between each swallow. For each recorded sound, the total duration of the sound and the duration of each sound component (SC) (SC1, SC2, and SC3) and interval (IT1 and IT2) between the SCs were measured. For all records, the average duration of acoustic measures was calculated. Differences according to the volume and the consistency of the swallowed bolus were assessed using Student\u2019s t test for paired data. We calculated the percentage of recordings that included each SC. We also compared results between men and women using Student\u2019s t test. We successfully interpreted 540 of the 621 (87 %) records. The results indicated that the average total duration of the sound, and especially the average duration of SC2, increased with increasing volume and was greater for mashed potato than for the boluses of other consistencies. SC2 was present in all of the records.\n\u2190 Effect of Low-Frequency rTMS and NMES on Subacute Unilateral Hemispheric Stroke With Dysphagia Respiratory Infections in Acute Stroke: Nasogastric Tubes and Immobility are Stronger Predictors than Dysphagia \u2192",

        "raw_content": "Stress can be a cause of muscle pain, since it makes the body clench involuntarily. From headaches to anxiety pains in the major muscles, it can cause a variety of problems.\nStress is an indelible part of life. It is not always a bad thing \u2013 some amount of stress can cause you to work more efficiently, stick to deadlines, jog your memory, etc. But uncontrolled amounts of stress can make you ill. In fact, it is a major cause of muscle pain and joint aches.\nHow does stress cause pain?\nStress can cause minor physiological changes. It can have the potential to change the digestive and even the circulatory processes of the body. With these changes, the body can perform at less than optimum levels. Soon, the muscles and joints can seize up. It is one of the most crucial causes of muscle pain in the body.\nStress causes the fight or flight response in humans. It causes the body to tense up involuntarily, thereby making the muscles clench. Not being able to relax makes this problem worse. You get the feeling that your muscles are always tight or tense, and you are constantly aware of the pain.\nMeanwhile, stress can cause tension headaches. These are caused by high amounts of stress and seemingly radiate from the neck upwards. They can come in waves with variable frequency.\nStress can affect concentration and focus, and also lower one\u2019s confidence. It can make your attention waver as you are unable to complete the task at hand with efficiency.\nAnother indirect result of stress is that since it reduces your focus, you may tend to overwork to compensate for your lack of performance. This causes a further spiral of stress and more work. Soon, the body experiences several aches and pains \u2013 this is how stress becomes another cause of muscle pain for the body.\nWays to alleviate stress-related pain\nHowever, you can get around stress-related pain with a few simple tweaks to your life.\nStart by applying a muscle pain relief cream or spray. It goes to the root of the pain and erases it, thereby keeping you pain-free.\nTake a muscle relaxant on the advice of your doctor.\nRemoving stress entirely from your life maybe impossible, but you can reduce its intensity. Try meditation, going for long walks by yourself, listening to soothing music and staying around cheerful, positive people to reduce stress and improve your mood.\nExercise plays a big role in alleviating stress, and hence, stress-related pains. It releases endorphins into the blood stream, thus improving the body\u2019s response to the pain reflex. At the same time, it calms the nerves and equips you to handle any stressful situation better.\nStay away from excess tea or coffee, as also oily and spicy food. Instead, have green or chamomile tea, buttermilk and healthy home cooked meals so that the digestive system calms down.",

        "raw_content": "Horses To Follow \u00bb Wogan\nWogan put up a fine performance to win the Grimthorpe Chase at Doncaster on Saturday. Settled well back in the field in the early stages by Andrew Tinkler, he quite forcibly pulled for his head on passing the stands first time, with the result that Tinkler allowed him stride on around the top turn, moving from seventh place passing the stands to disputing the lead with tearaway Daldini by the time they jumped the second fence in the back straight. It was a lot of ground to make up in a short space of time, it probably isn\u2019t the ideal way to be going on in a three-and-a-quarter-mile chase, and it probably didn\u2019t enhance Wogan\u2019s chance of winning. That said, it was possibly the correct thing to do given that the horse was pulling for his head, and he did win the race, so it is difficult to argue that it reduced his chance. Even so, it was a fair effort to stick to his task as well as he did up the home straight, given that he had to have expended significant energy in making up this ground at a point in the race when the whole field would have been looking to manoeuvre into position.\nJumping on at the top of the hill, Wogan travelled really well in front, pursued and joined by Killyglen from the seventh last. The Nicky Henderson horse moved on at the home turn, travelling best of all as Killyglen and the Trevor Hemmings pair Coe and Cloudy Lane gave chase. He jumped the fourth last and third last well, but he got in tight to both the second last and the last \u2013 he impressed with the manner in which he was able to flick through those fences without losing too much momentum despite the fact that he met both of them on a wrong stride \u2013 which gave Killyglen a chance, but he stayed on resolutely all the way to the line, sticking his neck out in game fashion, to repel the challenge of the Howard Johnson horse, the pair of them finishing well clear of Coe in third.\nThis was a massive performance by Wogan. The manner in which he kept on finding more on the run-in, despite a couple of less than fluent jumps, and despite pulling early on, was most impressive. Killyglen is a talented performer on his day when he has his conditions, which he had on Saturday, along with the additional benefits of first-time cheekpieces, winner of a Grade 2 novices\u2019 chase at Aintree last April and as short as 15/2 for the Hennessy last November, racing off a mark that was 6lb higher than Saturday\u2019s. Wogan beat him on merit, albeit getting 19lb, the pair of them clear in a time that was almost a half a second per furlong faster than standard on genuinely good ground.\nA son of Presenting, Wogan was impressive in winning on his previous start over three miles, also at Doncaster, and he seemed to improve again for better ground and for stepping up slightly in trip. He is 10 years old, but he has had his problems, with the result that he has still raced just eight times over fences, just 14 times in total, and he is still progressive. The handicapper has given him 9lb for this, which brings him up to a mark of 138, but that still may be fair. Wogan is entered in the Jewson Chase and the Kim Muir at Cheltenham, but his trainer seemed to think on Saturday that Cheltenham may come too soon after this, and he may leave him now until Aintree, which would make a lot of sense. He has now put in the two best performances of his career at Doncaster, a left-handed relatively flat track, not dissimilar to Aintree. The three-mile handicap chase at Aintree could be the race for him if the ground is good.",

        "title": "Twelve Types of Artificial Intelligence Problems - DZone Big Data",
        "raw_content": "Twelve Types of Artificial Intelligence Problems\nIs Aritifical Intelligence and Deep Learning a solution to every problem. Read on this article to find out where deep learning fits in, the use cases where AI can be applied and much more!\nIn this article, I cover the 12 types of AI problems i.e. I address the question: in which scenarios should you use Artificial Intelligence (AI)? We cover this space in the Enterprise AI course.\nRecently, I conducted a strategy workshop for a group of senior executives running a large multinational corporation. In the workshop, one person asked the question: How many cats does it need to identify a Cat?\nThis question is in reference to Andrew Ng\u2019s famous paper on Deep Learning where he was correctly able to identify images of Cats from YouTube videos. On one level, the answer is very clear: because Andrew Ng lists that number in his paper. That number is 10 million images, but the answer is incomplete because the question itself is limiting since there are a lot more details in the implementation \u2013 for example, training on a cluster with 1,000 machines (16,000 cores) for three days. I wanted to present a more detailed response to the question. Also, many problems can be solved using traditional Machine Learning algorithms \u2014 as per an excellent post from Brandon Rohrer \u2013 which algorithm family can answer my question. So, in this post I discuss problems that can be uniquely addressed through AI. This is not an exact taxonomy but I believe it is comprehensive. I have intentionally emphasized Enterprise AI problems because I believe AI will affect many mainstream applications \u2013 although a lot of media attention goes to the more esoteric applications.\nWhat Problems Does Deep Learning Address?\nFirstly, let us explore what Deep Learning is.\nDeep learning refers to artificial neural networks that are composed of many layers. The \u2018Deep\u2019 refers to multiple layers. In contrast, many other machine learning algorithms like SVM are shallow because they do not have a Deep architecture through multiple layers. The Deep architecture allows subsequent computations to build upon previous ones. We currently have deep learning networks with 10+ and even 100+ layers.\nThe presence of multiple layers allows the network to learn more abstract features. Thus, the higher layers of the network can learn more abstract features building on the inputs from the lower layers. A Deep Learning network can be seen as a Feature extraction layer with a Classification layer on top. The power of deep learning is not in its classification skills, but rather in its feature extraction skills. Feature extraction is automatic (without human intervention) and multi-layered.\nThe network is trained by exposing it to a large number of labelled examples. Errors are detected and the weights of the connections between the neurons are adjusted to improve results. The optimization process is repeated to create a tuned network. Once deployed, unlabeled images can be assessed based on the tuned network.\nFeature engineering involves finding connections between variables and packaging them into a new single variable is called. Deep Learning performs automated feature engineering. Automated feature engineering is the defining characteristic of Deep Learning especially for unstructured data such as images. This matters because the alternative is engineering features by hand. This is slow, cumbersome and depends on the domain knowledge of the people/person performing the Engineering\nDeep Learning suits problems where the target function is complex and datasets are large, but with examples of positive and negative cases. Deep Learning also suits problems that involve Hierarchy and Abstraction.\nAbstraction is a conceptual process by which general rules and concepts are derived from the usage and classification of specific examples. We can think of an abstraction as the creation of a \u2018super-category\u2019 which comprises of the common features that describe the examples for a specific purpose but ignores the \u2018local changes\u2019 in each example. For example, the abstraction of a \u2018Cat\u2019 would comprise fur, whiskers etc. For Deep Learning, each layer is involved with detection of one characteristic and subsequent layers build upon previous ones. Hence, Deep Learning is used in situations where the problem domain comprises abstract and hierarchical concepts. Image recognition falls in this category. In contrast, a spam detection problem that can be modelled neatly as a spreadsheet probably is not a complex problem to warrant Deep Learning\nA more detailed explanation of this question can be found in THIS Quora thread.\nAI vs. Deep Learning vs. Machine Learning\nBefore we explore types of AI applications, we need to also discuss the differences between the three terms AI vs. Deep Learning vs. Machine Learning.\nThe term Artificial Intelligence (AI) implies a machine that can Reason. A more complete list or AI characteristics (source David Kelnar) is:\nReasoning: the ability to solve problems through logical deduction\nKnowledge: the ability to represent knowledge about the world (the understanding that there are certain entities, events and situations in the world; those elements have properties; and those elements can be categorized.)\nPlanning: the ability to set and achieve goals (there is a specific future state of the world that is desirable, and sequences of actions can be undertaken that will effect progress towards it)\nCommunication: the ability to understand written and spoken language.\nPerception: the ability to deduce things about the world from visual images, sounds and other sensory inputs.\nThe holy grail of AI is artificial general intelligence (aka, like Terminator!) that allows machines to function independently in a normal human environment. What we see today is mostly narrow AI (ex like the NEST thermostat). AI is evolving rapidly. A range of technologies drive AI currently. These include: image recognition and auto labelling, facial recognition, text to speech, speech to text, auto translation, sentiment analysis, and emotion analytics in image, video, text, and speech. Source: Bill Vorhies. AI Apps have also reached accuracies of 99% in contrast to 95% just a few years ago.\nImprovements in Deep Learning algorithms drive AI. Deep Learning algorithms can detect patterns without the prior definition of features or characteristics. They can be seen as a hybrid form of supervised learning because you must still train the network with a large number of examples but without the requirement for predefining the characteristics of the examples (features). Deep Learning networks have made vast improvements both due to the algorithms themselves and better hardware (specifically GPUs)\nFinally, in a broad sense, the term Machine Learning means the application of any algorithm that can be applied against a dataset to find a pattern in the data. This includes algorithms like supervised, unsupervised, segmentation, classification, or regression. Despite their popularity, there are many reasons why Deep learning algorithms will not make other Machine Learning algor\u2026\nTwelve Types of AI Problems\nWith this background, we now discuss the twelve types of AI problems.\n1. Domain Expert: Problems Which Involve Reasoning Based On a Complex Body of Knowledge\nThis includes tasks which are based on learning a body of knowledge like legal, financial, etc. and then formulating a process where the machine can simulate an expert in the field\n2. Domain Extension: Problems Which Involve Extending a Complex Body of Knowledge\nHere, the machine learns a complex body of knowledge, like information about existing medication, and then can suggest new insights to the domain itself \u2013 for example new drugs to cure diseases.\n3. Complex Planner: Tasks Which Involve Planning\nMany logistics and scheduling tasks can be done by current (non AI) algorithms. But increasingly, as the optimization becomes complex, AI could help. One example is the use of AI techniques in IoT for Sparse datasets. AI techniques help in this case because we have large and complex datasets where human beings cannot detect patterns, but a machine can do so easily.\n4. Better Communicator: Tasks Which Involve Improving Existing Communication\nAI and Deep Learning benefit many communication modes such as automatic translation, intelligent agents, etc.\n5. New Perception: Tasks Which Involve Perception\nAI and Deep Learning enable newer forms of perception, which enable new services such as autonomous vehicles.\n6. Enterprise AI: AI Meets Re-Engineering the Corporation!\nWhile autonomous vehicles etc get a lot of media attention, AI will be deployed in almost all sectors of the economy. In each case, the same principles apply i.e. AI will be used to create new insights from automatic feature detection via Deep Learning \u2013 which in turn help to optimize, improve or change a business process (over and above what can be done with traditional machine learning). I outlined some of these processes in financial services in a previous blog: Enterprise AI insights from the AI Europe event in London. In a wider sense, you could view this as Re-engineering the Corporation meets AI/ Artificial Intelligence. This is very much part of the Enterprise AI course.\n7. Enterprise AI Adding Unstructured Data and Cognitive Capabilities to ERP and Data Warehousing\nFor reasons listed above, unstructured data offers a huge opportunity for Deep Learning and hence AI. As per Bernard Marr in Forbes: \u201cThe vast majority of the data available to most organizations is unstructured \u2013 call logs, emails, transcripts, video and audio data which, while full of valuable insights, can\u2019t easily be universally formatted into rows and columns to make quantitative analysis straightforward. With advances in fields such as image recognition, sentiment analysis and natural language processing, this information is starting to give up its secrets, and mining it will become increasingly big business in 2017.\u201d I very much agree to this. In practise, this will mean enhancing the features of ERP and Datawarehousing systems through Cognitive systems.\n8. Problems Which Impact Domains Due to Second Order Consequences of AI\nDavid Kelnar says in The fourth industrial revolution a primer on artificial intelligence:\n\u201cThe second-order consequences of machine learning will exceed its immediate impact. Deep learning has improved computer vision, for example, to the point that autonomous vehicles (cars and trucks) are viable. But what will be their impact? Today, 90% of people and 80% of freight are transported via road in the UK. Autonomous vehicles alone will impact: safety (90% of accidents are caused by driver inattention) employment (2.2 million people work in the UK haulage and logistics industry, receiving an estimated \u00a357B in annual salaries) insurance (Autonomous Research anticipates a 63% fall in UK car insurance premiums over time) sector economics (consumers are likely to use on-demand transportation services in place of car ownership); vehicle throughput; urban planning; regulation and more. \u201c\n9. Problems in the Near Future That Could Benefit From Improved Algorithms\nA catch-all category for things which were not possible in the past, could be possible in the near future due to better algorithms or better hardware. For example, in Speech recognition, improvements continue to be made and currently, the abilities of the machine equal that of a human. In 2012, Google used LSTMs to power the speech recognition system in Android. Just six weeks ago, Microsoft engineers reported that their system reached a word error rate of 5.9% \u2014 a figure roughly equal to that of human abilities for the first time in history. The goal-post continues to be moved rapidly. For example, loom.ai is building an avatar that can capture your personality.\n10. Evolution of Expert Systems\nExpert systems have been around for a long time. Much of the vision of Expert systems could be implemented in AI/Deep Learning algorithms in the near future. If you study the architecture of IBM Watson, you can see that the Watson strategy leads to an Expert system vision. Of course, the same ideas can be implemented independently of Watson today.\n11. Super Long Sequence Pattern Recognition\nThis domain is of personal interest to me due to my background with IoT see my course at Oxford University Data Science for Internet of Things. I got this title from a slide from Uber\u2019s head of Deep Learning who I met at the AI Europe event in London. The application of AI techniques to sequential pattern recognition is still an early stage domain(and does not yet get the kind of attention as CNNs for example) \u2013 but in my view, this will be a rapidly expanding space. For some background see this thesis from Technische Universitat Munchen (TUM) and this blog by Jakob Aungiers: LSTM Neural Network for Time Series Prediction.\n12. Extending Sentiment Analysis Using AI\nThe interplay between AI and Sentiment analysis is also a new area. There are already many synergies between AI and Sentiment analysis because many functions of AI apps need sentiment analysis features.\n\u201cThe common interest areas where Artificial Intelligence (AI) meets sentiment analysis can be viewed from four aspects of the problem and the aspects can be grouped as Object identification, Feature extraction, Orientation classification and Integration. The existing reported solutions or available systems are still far from being perfect or fail to meet the satisfaction level of the end users. The main issue may be that there are many conceptual rules that govern sentiment and there are even more clues (possibly unlimited) that can convey these concepts from realization to verbalization of a human being.\u201d source: SAAIP\nNotes: the post The fourth industrial revolution a primer on artificial intelligence also offers a good insight on AI domains. Also, see #AI application areas \u2013 a paper review of AI applications (pdf).\nTo conclude, AI is a rapidly evolving space. Although AI is more than Deep Learning, Advances in Deep Learning drive AI. Automatic feature learning is the key feature of AI. AI needs many detailed and pragmatic strategies which I have not yet covered here. A good AI Designer should be able to suggest more complex strategies like Pre-training or AI Transfer Learning.\nAI is not a panacea. AI comes with a cost (skills, development, and architecture) but provides an exponential increase in performance. Hence, AI is ultimately a rich company\u2019s game. But AI is also a \u2018winner takes all\u2019 game and hence provides a competitive advantage. The winners in AI will take an exponential view addressing very large scale problems, i.e. what is possible with AI which is not possible now?\nWe cover this space in the Enterprise AI course.\nThe Big Deal With Deep Learning\nDeep Learning and the Artificial Intelligence Revolution (Part 1)\nbig data ,deep learning ,data science ,artificial intelligence\nPublished at DZone with permission of Ajit Jaokar , DZone MVB.

        "raw_content": "> Organic & Biodynamic\nTry our selection of organic and biodynamic wines (AB, Ecocert, Agrocert, Demeter, Biodyvin...)\nWine production comprises two main phases - that which takes place in the vineyard (i.e. grape growing) and that which takes place in the winery (i.e. fermentation of the grapes into wine, bottling etc.).\nOrganic wine is wine made from grapes grown ...\nOrganic wine is wine made from grapes grown in accordance with organic farming principles, which typically excludes the use of artificial chemical fertilizers, pesticides, fungicides and herbicides.\nIn conventional agriculture, chemical fertilizers and weedkillers are used to promote larger yields while pesticides and fungicides protect against disease. These same chemicals are absorbed through the roots into the vine's sap and are then passed through leaves, and stems into the fruit. As a result, residues of these chemicals find their way into the finished wine. In addition to the effects of direct consumption, conventional 'chemical based' farming has a significant impact on soil and water quality. Wine growers farming with chemicals have to wear 'hazmat' style clothing and breathing apparatus to protect themselves while crop spraying.\nProponents of organically grown wine believe (and we believe) that chemical farming destroys the uniqueness of the land, and the unique flavor that this 'terroir' imparts to the wine.\nUsing native yeasts and relying on minimal manipulation often means that wines have a more unique profile from year to year. Different vintages vary more than conventionally made wine because of the non-interventionist approach. This is a key part of the natural wine aesthetic which emphasizes the least amount of intervention to bring the true flavor of each vintage to the glass.\nSome farmers take additional steps beyond standard organic winemaking to apply sustainable farming practices. Examples include the use of composting and the cultivation of plants that attract insects that are beneficial to the health of the vines. Sustainable practices in these vineyards also extend to actions such as providing areas for wildlife to prevent animals from eating the grapes and allowing weeds and wildflowers to grow between the vines. Sustainable farmers may use bio-diesel for tractors in the vineyards to reduce emissions among the vines, or plough with horses...\nBiodynamic wines are wines made using the principles of biodynamic agriculture. Biodynamic refers to both the agricultural methods and the handling and processing of the fruit post-harvest.\nLike biodynamic agriculture in general, biodynamic viticulture stems from the ideas of Rudolf Steiner (1861\u20131925), who gave his now famous Agriculture Course in 1924. The principles and practices of biodynamics are based on his philosophy, called anthroposophy, which includes understanding the ecological, the energetic, and the spiritual in nature.\nAs a practical method of farming, biodynamics embodies the ideal of ever-increasing ecological self-sufficiency just as with modern agro-ecology, but includes ethical-spiritual considerations. This type of viticulture views the farm as a cohesive, interconnected living system.\nGrape growers who have adopted biodynamic methods claim to have achieved improvements in the health of their vineyards, specifically in the areas of biodiversity, soil fertility, crop nutrition, and pest, weed, and disease management.\nBiodynamic winemakers claim to have noted stronger, clearer, more vibrant tastes, as well as wines that remain drinkable longer. Biodynamic producers also note that their methods tend to result in better balance in growth, where the sugar production in the grapes coincides with physiological ripeness, resulting in a wine with the correct balance of flavor and alcohol content, even with changing climate conditions.\nIn a blind tasting of 10 pairs of biodynamic and conventionally made wines, conducted by Fortune and judged by seven wine experts including a Master of Wine and head sommeliers, nine of the biodynamic wines were judged superior to their conventional counterpart.The biodynamic wines \"were found to have better expressions of terroir, the way in which a wine can represent its specific place of origin in its aroma, flavor, and texture.\"\nCritics acknowledge the high quality of biodynamic wines, but question whether many of the improvements in vineyard health and wine taste would have happened anyway if organic farming were used, without the mysticism and increased effort involved in biodynamics. Other critics attribute the success of biodynamic viticulture to the winemakers' higher craftsmanship and meticulous attention to detail.\nOrganic & Biodynamic There are 45 products.",

        "raw_content": "Pattern matches what science has found about uses for cannabis\nThat's followed by stiffness from multiple sclerosis and chemotherapy-related nausea, according to an analysis of 15 states published Feb. 4 in the journal Health Affairs.\nThe study didn't measure whether marijuana actually helped anyone with their problems, but the patients' reasons match up with what's known about the science of marijuana and its chemical components.\n\u201cThe majority of patients for whom we have data are using cannabis for reasons where the science is the strongest,\u201d said lead author Kevin Boehnke of the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor.\nWhile the U.S. government has approved medicines based on compounds found in the plant, it considers marijuana illegal and imposes limits on research. That's led to states allowing some diseases and symptoms where rigorous science is lacking. Most of the evidence comes from studying pharmaceuticals based on marijuana ingredients, not from studies of smoked marijuana or edible forms.\nDementia and glaucoma, for example, are conditions where marijuana hasn't proved valuable, but some states include them. Many states allow Parkinson's disease or post-traumatic stress disorder where evidence is limited.\nAbout 85 percent of patients' reasons were supported by substantial or conclusive evidence in the National Academies report.\nThe study shows people are learning about the evidence for cannabis and its chemical components, said Ziva Cooper of University of California Los Angeles' Cannabis Research Initiative. Cooper served on the National Academies report committee, but wasn't involved in the new study.\nRoughly two-thirds of the about 730,000 reasons were related to chronic pain, the study found. Patients could report more than one pain condition, so the figure may overestimate patient numbers.\nPatients include 37-year-old Brandian Smith of Pana, Illinois, who qualifies because she has fibromyalgia. On bad days, her muscles feel like they're being squeezed in a vise. She said she has stopped taking opioid painkillers because marijuana works better for her. She spends about $300 a month at her marijuana dispensary.\n\u201cCannabis is the first thing I've found that actually makes the pain go away and not leave me so high that I can't enjoy my day,\u201d Smith said.\n\u2022 Alaska, Colorado, Nevada, and Oregon saw a decline in medical marijuana patients after legalization of recreational marijuana in those states.\n\u2022 More than 800,000 patients were enrolled in medical marijuana programs in 2017 in 19 states. That doesn't count California and Maine, which don't require patients to register. Other estimates have put the number at more than 2 million .\nmarijuana,\tUniversity of Michigan,\tHealth Affairs",

        "raw_content": "If you are searching for a very cheap writing company, AffordablePapers.com might be worth a shot. The company\u2019s name clearly speaks for itself, right? But a few questions arise. Is it possible for a company to produce high-quality papers with very low rates? Do their essay writers have a fine compensation? To answer these questions, we have decided to do a bit of a research on them.\nTypes of writing services offered\nWhen you visit AffordablePapers.com, you will notice that the bottom menu at the site\u2019s homepage is a list of their most frequently ordered services. These services usually include term papers, reviews, essays, assignments, reports, research papers, dissertations, and much more. This company has almost all possible academic papers available and they are all offered at a very low price.\nWhat makes them even greater is that they are also providing various extra services for every paper. These extra services include getting a sample of writer\u2019s work, a copy of sources used by the writer, and the progressive delivery of the paper. You can request the paper to be written following MLA, APA, Harvard or any other writing style that you prefer.\nLike we stated above, their prices are very cheap. The rate per page usually starts from $9.00 and can go up to $32 per page. However, always keep in mind that the prices change depending on the quality level and the deadline you have selected for your paper or project. Affordablepapers.com only accepts the shortest deadline of 8 hours so if you\u2019re looking for a fast custom writing company, this is not it. When you order, you can select from the three academic levels like school, university, and college.\nIt\u2019s sad that this service doesn\u2019t offer lifetime discounts for their loyal and new customers. So we did a little research and even asked them why they are not giving their customers any discounts and they answered by stating that the reason for that is that all prices are already very cheap. But if you examine your order form properly, you will find out that the total you will receive is much closer to the more expensive services, which usually provide discounts.\nTo tell you the truth, if you order a paper from this company, you should not anticipate that you will be getting a high-quality paper. Cheap and affordable words always speak for themselves. But to find out how they can really help students, we have experimented by placing an essay order. The result was disappointing so we have confirmed that a cheap service doesn\u2019t always provide an excellent output. Here is a breakdown of the errors in the paper:\nThe writer was not paying attention since we found out that the paper had a lot of spelling mistakes\nThe thesis statement written by the writer was not clear enough\nThe thesis actually had some arguments to prove it, but the writer didn\u2019t do an extensive research about it and had failed to deliver those proofs\nBut to sum it all up, the paper provided wasn\u2019t that bad. Still, we think that in order to produce or write a high-quality paper, a writer should pay attention to something that\u2019s important.\nThe company\u2019s customer support department wasn\u2019t that bad after all. When we tried to contact them, we were first directed to a customer care agent and we had to go through a series of simple questions. The first question that we needed to answer was if we were a visitor or an existing customer and then we had to select the issue. The process wasn\u2019t that annoying since we were immediately connected to a customer support agent.\nThe service was okay since the agent was able to answer all our questions about fees, order process, discounts, services offered, and other things that we wanted to know more about. Unfortunately, when we asked the support agent about how our ordered paper was progressing, they weren\u2019t able to help us and only told us that \u201cthe writer is working on the paper, please, be patient.\u201d That was disappointing since the agent didn\u2019t provide us a more detailed answer.\nNow you know that a cheap service is not always good and doesn\u2019t work all the time and this is all about AffordablePapers.com. Despite having very efficient and excellent customer support agents who, at the same time, are professionals in sales and pre-sales, they still weren't able to help us with the updates on the progress of our ordered papers. We think that it is much better to pay a few dollars more per page and get a high-quality paper, then pay less and receive a bad service.\nAdvancedWriters.Com Review\nUSEssay.net Review\nAssignmentdoer.com Review\nHireWriters.com Review",

        "raw_content": "Adnan Oktar: Welcome. What was the name of this cute one?\nOktar Babuna: Asaf Ronel.\nAdnan Oktar: Welcome, you honored us.\nB\u00fclent Sezgin: Mr. Oktar, our guest is the world news editor of Haaretz, one of the most popular newspapers in Israel.\nAdnan Oktar: Yes. Ok, please go ahead. I\u2019m listening.\nAsaf Ronel: Okay. Can you summarize some of your interpretations of Islam and the Qur\u2019an in general?\nAdnan Oktar: I don't want anything to be added to the Qur\u2019an. I don't want anything to be removed from the Qur\u2019an. Whatever God says in the Qur\u2019an, I want that to be done. I know that the Qur\u2019an is a book of love. I know that it is a book that will bring love to the entire world. I want the entire world to know that it will explain love to the world in the best way possible.\nAsaf Ronel: Can you talk about your perception of the place of women in Islam, which is quite different than what is commonly viewed by the Muslims around the world?\nAdnan Oktar: Women are amazing manifestations of God. They are the most beautiful beings in the world. They are incredible works of art, created by God. They are glorious beings that should be respected, admired, loved, cherished and protected all their lives as blessings.\nAsaf Ronel: I read, again, I am quoting the quotes, that you refer to women close to you as \u2018kittens\u2019. Do you think that isn\u2019t a bit offensive, this type of terminology?\nAdnan Oktar: Cats are very cute animals, and kittens are even cuter. They are incredible manifestations of God. Kittens, rabbits, doves are adorable creatures. So comparing a young girl to a kitten is a beautiful compliment to her, showing that she is just as adorable and sweet.\nAsaf Ronel: So what is your position about plastic surgery for women to help to their beauty?\nAdnan Oktar: Those claims about having plastic surgery are lies told by jealous people, in the hopes that they will feel better if that had been the case. Because when they look in the mirror, they think they are ugly, and when they compare themselves to the ladies here, they hurt. They say, if I had a plastic surgery, I could also look like them, and try to console themselves. They can console themselves, there is nothing wrong with that. But I know for a fact that none of my lady friends had any plastic surgery. If there was something like that, there would be hospital records of that. My lady friends are all naturally beautiful.\nAsaf Ronel: Are you against it? Do you think it is wrong?\nAdnan Oktar: No, I\u2019m not against it. If anyone wants to, they can have plastic surgery, but if there is a threat to life because of surgery, they shouldn\u2019t do it. It wouldn't be worth the risk.\nAsaf Ronel: Next subject; it has been claimed that you consider yourself or you present yourself as the Messiah, Mahdi. Can you answer those accusations? It was claimed in different publications that you felt yourself, that you consider yourself, you talk about yourself as the Mahdi. Can you answer those allegations?\nAdnan Oktar: I said maybe a hundred times that I didn't make a claim like that, that I would never claim anything like that. I swore in the name of God that I would never make a claim like that. This is a contrived effort. I am an ordinary person.\nAsaf Ronel: Can you talk about your attitude towards Judaism?\nAdnan Oktar: I love Jews very much. I love them very much because they have been loyal to Prophets Moses, Abraham, Israel (pbut). They are pious, they love God very much. I consider them Muslims, because they don't say Prophet Mohammed (saas) lied. They consider Muslims as Muslims [believers].\nAsaf Ronel: What do you think about the view of Jews praying on Al Aqsa, in the Temple Mount?\nAdnan Oktar: Christians, Jews, Muslims, everyone can worship there. It is a place of worship.\nAsaf Ronel: But most Muslims today at least object to that. Why is your position so different than the average Muslim today around the world?\nAdnan Oktar: What they do is irrational. If they [Jews, Christians] go there for God, to worship God, they [Muslims] should be happy about it, should be proud of it. The land there is sufficient for this. We will build the Prayer House of Prophet Solomon there, and in this century, insha\u2019 Allah.\nAsaf Ronel: In this century?\nAdnan Oktar: Yes, yes.\nAsaf Ronel: In the past, books were published under your name, with the headlines the Holocaust Deception, Judaism and Freemasonry that were seen as anti-Semitic materials. Are you responsible for those publications? What do you think about them? Do you repent? Do you think it was wrong to publish that?\nAdnan Oktar: I explained many times before that I didn't publish such books. All my books are registered. I am not responsible for books published using my name or pseudo name. I have registry records for all the books I actually published. I always defended the Jews. I am the person that protects the Jews the best in Turkey. I am the one that most powerfully stands against anti-Semitism in Turkey. Everyone knows that. I have been threatened many times by illegal organizations because of my support for the Jews. Countless threats. Not once, or twice, countless times. Despite that, I never even imagined stopping my support for the Jews. I will continue to defend their rights. It is an honor for me.\nAsaf Ronel: So who published those books? Do you know?\nAdnan Oktar: A friend of ours, called Nuri.\nAsaf Ronel: Why did he do it?\nAdnan Oktar: Because during those times, Jews were like that. The entire Turkey entertained thoughts like that. They thought that Jews would put people in boxes, make them bleed, and use that blood to make bread and then eat that bread. In other words, Jews were portrayed as extremely savage, brutal people. He might be affected by that rhetoric. Everyone believed that. Jews were shown like a brutal people that were created to oppress, that should be killed wherever they were spotted. But I showed everyone that it was not true.\nAsaf Ronel: Do you have Israeli friends? Can you talk about them? Who they are, what are your connections?\nAdnan Oktar: I have lots of good friends there. Many. Especially among the religious people, and Rabbis, I have many good friends. I love all of them very much. And I always defend them, and support them. I fear no one but God and no one can stop me from supporting them.\nAsaf Ronel: And what about the Jewish community in Turkey? Do you talk to them also?\nAdnan Oktar: I don't know many of them. But I am very close friends with truly religious Jews in Israel. I love them very much because they are truly religious.\nAsaf Ronel: We\u2019ve read the reports that your TV channel is fined by the Turkish authorities. Do you feel there is going to be pressure from the authorities against you and your friends and followers?\nAdnan Oktar: Of course, my support for Jewish people created a backlash in certain circles in Turkey. Everyone can clearly see the current backlash and pressure. Media talks about this a lot. But I couldn't care less. I know that the TV board (RTUK) is also under a lot of pressure. I know that there is a lot of pressure from those certain circles.\nActually, the penalty for our TV channel is very little compared to other TV channels. Other TV channels are punished thousand times more, but the media never covers that. When RTUK fines us, which is a very rare incident, they turn it into a huge thing. This is happening because certain circles, the sleeper cells of FETO, PKK, ISIS, Al Qaeda, Taliban, which are all pawns of the British deep state, are activated to attack us. But we never care about these things at all, and I don't care about them.\nAdnan Oktar: In the past, Jews were portrayed in a very bad light in Turkey. There were shown like blood-sucking, crazy structure that wanted to rule the world. I had to explain for years that it was not true and eventually managed to convince people. This is largely the reason behind the current backlash.\nAsaf Ronel: I read that you had a previous run in with the law authorities. Can you describe your point of view, you were convicted, spent time in jail, can you describe your position as to what happened?\nAdnan Oktar: Yes, I was jailed twice. I served nine months each time. But in the end, I was cleared of all charges. The court verified that I was completely innocent. I have no criminal record at all, not even a traffic ticket at the moment. I was cleared of all charges against me. I was sued 28 times and charged with leading a criminal organization, but I was cleared of all those charges.\nAsaf Ronel: Yet, you have been accused, I\u2019ve met with a few people who claimed they were part of your group in the past, they said they stayed but now they say you used them, you imprisoned them, you did not allow them to leave, that the women are under constant supervision, that they are being recorded in intimate situations, and then those recordings are used against them. How do you respond to those accusations?\nAdnan Oktar: Those people stayed with us maybe 20 years. But in the end they understood that they wouldn't be able gain any financial gain from us, and then began to tell these lies. If what they said was true, why did they stay with us for 20 years?\nIf even a small part of what they said was true, they wouldn't stay with us even for 20 minutes. But they stayed here for 20 years, praised me, told everyone about how much they loved me, told them that I was great, and was a good person. This shows that none of those stories are true. The truth is, when they couldn't get any money, any material gains, they started using their imagination to slander us, hoping that this way they might gain something material. No one will pay any attention to them, because how will they respond if they are asked, \u201cwhy did you stay with them for 20 years then?\u201d If what they said was true, they wouldn't stay here even for 20 minutes. It is obvious that they are lying.\nAsaf Ronel: So are there recordings of your followers in situation having sex?\nAdnan Oktar: If there is anything like that, why don't they present it to the legal authorities? These are inconsistent, illogical claims. They have been making these claims for the past 20, 25 years, and we never saw a record like that. Police searched also, they searched even underneath the wood floorings, removed the walls, turned everything upside down, but they never found a tape like that. In other words, it was all a lie.\nAsaf Ronel: Can you explain a bit more about what you mean by the British deep state?\nAdnan Oktar: There is a deep state structure in England. It consists of some 300 people, led by an old man. He is the man that Pope was referring as \u2018he cannot be defeated\u2019. The entire media heard Pope talk about him in detail recently. Now this very British deep state has launched a campaign against us.\nAsaf Ronel: Why are they targeting you?\nAdnan Oktar: Because it is I, who intellectually crush the British deep state. This book you see [Mastermind: The Truth of the British Deep State Revealed]; it has several volumes and they are very thick books, as you can see. They couldn't handle this.\nAsaf Ronel: Can you tell me a little bit about the people around you? How many people are there? What is your relation with them? What is your impact?\nAdnan Oktar: I have close to 150 ladies and 150 men in my group of friends. So it is close to 300.\nAsaf Ronel: Will you prevail? Will you survive the attack?\nAdnan Oktar: As you can see, I\u2019m like steel, stronger than ever.\nAsaf Ronel: Last question. Can you give me a vision of the future? What do you think future will be like?\nAdnan Oktar: Moshiach, Mahdi will come, you will see that. We will build the Prayer House of Solomon in Jerusalem. Islamic moral values will reign in the world. Jews will worship freely, Christians will worship freely, Muslims will worship freely. There will be no more wars, no more terror. You will see that. Insha\u2019Allah.\nAsaf Ronel: When?\nAdnan Oktar: In a maximum of 10 years. I\u2019m here.\nAsaf Ronel: I will be waiting. Thank you very much.\nAdnan Oktar: Thank you.\nMr. Adnan Oktar's live interview by Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting (IRIB TV) (A9 TV, Istanbul, November 3rd, 2011)\nMr. Adnan Oktar's Interview with i24News TV of Israel (February 20th, 2014)\nMr. Adnan Oktar's live conversation with British journalist Yvonne Ridley on A9 TV (14 February 2012)\nMr. Adnan Oktar's live talk on A9 TV with the Mr. Fadel Soliman, the director of Egypt Bridges Foundation (October 8th, 2011; 15:00)",

        "title": "Covalent bond - Wikipedia",
        "raw_content": "(Redirected from Molecular bond)\n\"Covalent\" redirects here. For other uses, see Covalent (disambiguation).\nA covalent bond, also called a molecular bond, is a chemical bond that involves the sharing of electron pairs between atoms. These electron pairs are known as shared pairs or bonding pairs, and the stable balance of attractive and repulsive forces between atoms, when they share electrons, is known as covalent bonding.[1][better source needed] For many molecules, the sharing of electrons allows each atom to attain the equivalent of a full outer shell, corresponding to a stable electronic configuration.\nCovalent bonding includes many kinds of interactions, including \u03c3-bonding, \u03c0-bonding, metal-to-metal bonding, agostic interactions, bent bonds, and three-center two-electron bonds.[2][3] The term covalent bond dates from 1939.[4] The prefix co- means jointly, associated in action, partnered to a lesser degree, etc.; thus a \"co-valent bond\", in essence, means that the atoms share \"valence\", such as is discussed in valence bond theory.\nIn the molecule H\n2, the hydrogen atoms share the two electrons via covalent bonding.[5] Covalency is greatest between atoms of similar electronegativities. Thus, covalent bonding does not necessarily require that the two atoms be of the same elements, only that they be of comparable electronegativity. Covalent bonding that entails sharing of electrons over more than two atoms is said to be delocalized.\nEarly concepts in covalent bonding arose from this kind of image of the molecule of methane. Covalent bonding is implied in the Lewis structure by indicating electrons shared between atoms.\nThe term covalence in regard to bonding was first used in 1919 by Irving Langmuir in a Journal of the American Chemical Society article entitled \"The Arrangement of Electrons in Atoms and Molecules\". Langmuir wrote that \"we shall denote by the term covalence the number of pairs of electrons that a given atom shares with its neighbors.\"[6]\nThe idea of covalent bonding can be traced several years before 1919 to Gilbert N. Lewis, who in 1916 described the sharing of electron pairs between atoms.[7] He introduced the Lewis notation or electron dot notation or Lewis dot structure, in which valence electrons (those in the outer shell) are represented as dots around the atomic symbols. Pairs of electrons located between atoms represent covalent bonds. Multiple pairs represent multiple bonds, such as double bonds and triple bonds. An alternative form of representation, not shown here, has bond-forming electron pairs represented as solid lines.\nLewis proposed that an atom forms enough covalent bonds to form a full (or closed) outer electron shell. In the diagram of methane shown here, the carbon atom has a valence of four and is, therefore, surrounded by eight electrons (the octet rule), four from the carbon itself and four from the hydrogens bonded to it. Each hydrogen has a valence of one and is surrounded by two electrons (a duet rule) \u2013 its own one electron plus one from the carbon. The numbers of electrons correspond to full shells in the quantum theory of the atom; the outer shell of a carbon atom is the n = 2 shell, which can hold eight electrons, whereas the outer (and only) shell of a hydrogen atom is the n = 1 shell, which can hold only two.\nWhile the idea of shared electron pairs provides an effective qualitative picture of covalent bonding, quantum mechanics is needed to understand the nature of these bonds and predict the structures and properties of simple molecules. Walter Heitler and Fritz London are credited with the first successful quantum mechanical explanation of a chemical bond (molecular hydrogen) in 1927.[8] Their work was based on the valence bond model, which assumes that a chemical bond is formed when there is good overlap between the atomic orbitals of participating atoms.\nTypes of covalent bonds\nAtomic orbitals (except for s orbitals) have specific directional properties leading to different types of covalent bonds. Sigma (\u03c3) bonds are the strongest covalent bonds and are due to head-on overlapping of orbitals on two different atoms. A single bond is usually a \u03c3 bond. Pi (\u03c0) bonds are weaker and are due to lateral overlap between p (or d) orbitals. A double bond between two given atoms consists of one \u03c3 and one \u03c0 bond, and a triple bond is one \u03c3 and two \u03c0 bonds.\nCovalent bonds are also affected by the electronegativity of the connected atoms which determines the chemical polarity of the bond. Two atoms with equal electronegativity will make nonpolar covalent bonds such as H\u2013H. An unequal relationship creates a polar covalent bond such as with H\u2212Cl. However polarity also requires geometric asymmetry, or else dipoles may cancel out resulting in a non-polar molecule.\nCovalent structures\nThere are several types of structures for covalent substances, including individual molecules, molecular structures, macromolecular structures and giant covalent structures. Individual molecules have strong bonds that hold the atoms together, but there are negligible forces of attraction between molecules. Such covalent substances are usually gases, for example, HCl, SO2, CO2, and CH4. In molecular structures, there are weak forces of attraction. Such covalent substances are low-boiling-temperature liquids (such as ethanol), and low-melting-temperature solids (such as iodine and solid CO2). Macromolecular structures have large numbers of atoms linked by covalent bonds in chains, including synthetic polymers such as polyethylene and nylon, and biopolymers such as proteins and starch. Network covalent structures (or giant covalent structures) contain large numbers of atoms linked in sheets (such as graphite), or 3-dimensional structures (such as diamond and quartz). These substances have high melting and boiling points, are frequently brittle, and tend to have high electrical resistivity. Elements that have high electronegativity, and the ability to form three or four electron pair bonds, often form such large macromolecular structures.[9]\nOne- and three-electron bonds\nComparison of the electronic structure of the 3e and 2e bonds.\nBonds with one or three electrons can be found in radical species, which have an odd number of electrons. The simplest example of a 1-electron bond is found in the dihydrogen cation, H+\n2. One-electron bonds often have about half the bond energy of a 2-electron bond, and are therefore called \"half bonds\". However, there are exceptions: in the case of dilithium, the bond is actually stronger for the 1-electron Li+\n2 than for the 2-electron Li2. This exception can be explained in terms of hybridization and inner-shell effects.[10]\nThe simplest example of three-electron bonding can be found in the helium dimer cation, He+\n2. It is considered a \"half bond\" because it consists of only one shared electron (rather than two);[11] in molecular orbital terms, the third electron is in an anti-bonding orbital which cancels out half of the bond formed by the other two electrons. Another example of a molecule containing a 3-electron bond, in addition to two 2-electron bonds, is nitric oxide, NO. The oxygen molecule, O2 can also be regarded as having two 3-electron bonds and one 2-electron bond, which accounts for its paramagnetism and its formal bond order of 2.[12] Chlorine dioxide and its heavier analogues bromine dioxide and iodine dioxide also contain three-electron bonds.\nMolecules with odd-electron bonds are usually highly reactive. These types of bond are only stable between atoms with similar electronegativities.[12]\nThere are situations whereby a single Lewis structure is insufficient to explain the electron configuration in a molecule, hence a superposition of structures are needed. The same two atoms in such molecules can be bonded differently in different structures (a single bond in one, a double bond in another, or even none at all), resulting in a non-integer bond order. The nitrate ion is one such example with three equivalent structures. The bond between the nitrogen and each oxygen is a double bond in one structure and a single bond in the other two, so that the average bond order for each N\u2013O interaction is 2 + 1 + 1/3 = 4/3.\nIn organic chemistry, when a molecule with a planar ring obeys H\u00fcckel's rule, where the number of \u03c0 electrons fit the formula 4n + 2 (where n is an integer), it attains extra stability and symmetry. In benzene, the prototypical aromatic compound, there are 6 \u03c0 bonding electrons (n = 1, 4n + 2 = 6). These occupy three delocalized \u03c0 molecular orbitals (molecular orbital theory) or form conjugate \u03c0 bonds in two resonance structures that linearly combine (valence bond theory), creating a regular hexagon exhibiting a greater stabilization than the hypothetical 1,3,5-cyclohexatriene.\nIn the case of heterocyclic aromatics and substituted benzenes, the electronegativity differences between different parts of the ring may dominate the chemical behaviour of aromatic ring bonds, which otherwise are equivalent.\nHypervalence\nMain article: Hypervalent molecule\nCertain molecules such as xenon difluoride and sulfur hexafluoride have higher co-ordination numbers than would be possible due to strictly covalent bonding according to the octet rule. This is explained by the three-center four-electron bond (\"3c\u20134e\") model which interprets the molecular wavefunction in terms of non-bonding highest occupied molecular orbitals in molecular orbital theory and resonance of sigma bonds in valence bond theory.\nElectron-deficiency\nMain article: Electron deficiency\nIn three-center two-electron bonds (\"3c\u20132e\") three atoms share two electrons in bonding. This type of bonding occurs in electron deficient compounds like diborane. Each such bond (2 per molecule in diborane) contains a pair of electrons which connect the boron atoms to each other in a banana shape, with a proton (nucleus of a hydrogen atom) in the middle of the bond, sharing electrons with both boron atoms. In certain cluster compounds, so-called four-center two-electron bonds also have been postulated.\nQuantum mechanical description\nAfter the development of quantum mechanics, two basic theories were proposed to provide a quantum description of chemical bonding: valence bond (VB) theory and molecular orbital (MO) theory. A more recent quantum description[13] is given in terms of atomic contributions to the electronic density of states.\nComparison of VB and MO theories\nThe two theories represent two ways to build up the electron configuration of the molecule.[14] For valence bond theory, the atomic hybrid orbitals are filled first to produce a full valence configuration of bonding pairs and lone pairs, followed by a linear combination of contributing structures (resonance) if there are several of them. In contrast, for molecular orbital theory a linear combination of atomic orbitals is performed first, followed by the filling of the resulting molecular orbitals by the aufbau principle.\nThe two approaches are regarded as complementary, and each provides its own insights into the problem of chemical bonding. As valence bond theory builds the molecular wavefunction out of localized bonds, it is more suited for the calculation of bond energies and the understanding of reaction mechanisms. As molecular orbital theory builds the molecular wavefunction out of delocalized orbitals, it is more suited for the calculation of ionization energies and the understanding of spectral absorption bands.\nAt the qualitative level, both theories contain incorrect predictions. Simple (Heitler\u2013London) valence bond theory correctly predicts the dissociation of homonuclear diatomic molecules into separate atoms, while simple (Hartree\u2013Fock) molecular orbital theory incorrectly predicts dissociation into a mixture of atoms and ions. On the other hand, simple molecular orbital theory correctly predicts H\u00fcckel's rule of aromaticity, while simple valence bond theory incorrectly predicts that cyclobutadiene has a larger resonance energy than benzene.\nAlthough the wavefunctions generated by both theories at the qualitative level do not agree and do not match the stabilization energy by experiment, they can be corrected by configuration interaction.[14] This is done by combining the valence bond covalent function with the functions describing all possible ionic configurations or by combining the molecular orbital ground state function with the functions describing all possible excited states using unoccupied orbitals. It can then be seen that the simple molecular orbital approach overestimates the weight of the ionic structures while the simple valence bond approach neglects them. This can also be described as saying that the molecular orbital approach neglects electron correlation while the valence bond approach overestimates it.[14]\nModern calculations in quantum chemistry usually start from (but ultimately go far beyond) a molecular orbital rather than a valence bond approach, not because of any intrinsic superiority in the former but rather because the MO approach is more readily adapted to numerical computations. Molecular orbitals are orthogonal, which significantly increases feasibility and speed of computer calculations compared to nonorthogonal valence bond orbitals. However, better valence bond programs are now available.\nCovalency from atomic contribution to the electronic density of states\nIn COOP,[15] COHP[16] and BCOOP,[17] evaluation of bond covalency is dependent on the basis set. To overcome this issue, an alternative formulation of the bond covalency can be provided in this way.\nThe center mass cm(n,l,ml,ms) of an atomic orbital |n,l,ml,ms\u27e9, with quantum numbers n, l, ml, ms, for atom A is defined as\nc m A ( n , l , m l , m s ) = \u222b E 0 E 1 E g | n , l , m l , m s \u27e9 A ( E ) d E \u222b E 0 E 1 g | n , l , m l , m s \u27e9 A ( E ) d E {\\displaystyle cm^{\\mathrm {A} }(n,l,m_{l},m_{s})={\\frac {\\int \\limits _{E_{0}}\\limits ^{E_{1}}Eg_{|n,l,m_{l},m_{s}\\rangle }^{\\mathrm {A} }\\left(E\\right)dE}{\\int \\limits _{E_{0}}\\limits ^{E_{1}}g_{|n,l,m_{l},m_{s}\\rangle }^{\\mathrm {A} }\\left(E\\right)dE}}}\nwhere gA\n|n,l,ml,ms\u27e9(E) is the contribution of the atomic orbital |n,l,ml,ms\u27e9 of the atom A to the total electronic density of states g(E) of the solid\ng ( E ) = \u2211 A \u2211 n , l \u2211 m l , m s g | n , l , m l , m s \u27e9 A ( E ) {\\displaystyle g\\left(E\\right)=\\sum _{\\mathrm {A} }\\sum _{n,l}\\sum _{m_{l},m_{s}}{g_{|n,l,m_{l},m_{s}\\rangle }^{\\mathrm {A} }\\left(E\\right)}}\nwhere the outer sum runs over all atoms A of the unit cell. The energy window [E0,E1] is chosen in such a way that it encompasses all relevant bands participating in the bond. If the range to select is unclear, it can be identified in practice by examining the molecular orbitals that describe the electron density along the considered bond.\nThe relative position CnAlA,nBlB of the center mass of |nA,lA\u27e9 levels of atom A with respect to the center mass of |nB,lB\u27e9 levels of atom B is given as\nC n A l A , n B l B = \u2212 | c m A ( n A , l A ) \u2212 c m B ( n B , l B ) | {\\displaystyle C_{n_{\\mathrm {A} }l_{\\mathrm {A} },n_{\\mathrm {B} }l_{\\mathrm {B} }}=-\\left|cm^{\\mathrm {A} }(n_{\\mathrm {A} },l_{\\mathrm {A} })-cm^{\\mathrm {B} }(n_{\\mathrm {B} },l_{\\mathrm {B} })\\right|}\nwhere the contributions of the magnetic and spin quantum numbers are summed. According to this definition, the relative position of the A levels with respect to the B levels is\nC A , B = \u2212 | c m A \u2212 c m B | {\\displaystyle C_{\\mathrm {A,B} }=-\\left|cm^{\\mathrm {A} }-cm^{\\mathrm {B} }\\right|}\nwhere, for simplicity, we may omit the dependence from the principal quantum number n in the notation referring to CnAlA,nBlB.\nIn this formalism, the greater the value of CA,B, the higher the overlap of the selected atomic bands, and thus the electron density described by those orbitals gives a more covalent A\u2013B bond. The quantity CA,B is denoted as the covalency of the A\u2013B bond, which is specified in the same units of the energy E.\nBonding in solids\nCoordinate covalent bond, also known as a dipolar bond or a dative covalent bond\nCovalent bond classification (or LXZ notation)\nNoncovalent bonding\nResonance (chemistry)\n^ Campbell, Neil A.; Williamson, Brad; Heyden, Robin J.

        "raw_content": "For other uses, see Nas (disambiguation).\nNasir bin Olu Dara Jones (/n\u0251\u02d0\u02c8s\u026a\u0259r/; born September 14, 1973), known professionally as Nas (/n\u0251\u02d0z/), is an American rapper, songwriter, record producer and entrepreneur.[1] The son of jazz musician Olu Dara, Nas has released eight consecutive platinum and multi-platinum albums and has sold over 30 million records worldwide. He is also an entrepreneur through his own record label; he serves as associate publisher of Mass Appeal magazine and is the owner of a Fila sneaker store. He is the founder of Mass Appeal Records.\nNasir bin Olu Dara Jones\nNas Escobar\nOlu Dara (father)\nYara Shahidi (cousin)\nwww.nasirjones.com\nHis musical career began in 1991, as a featured artist on Main Source's \"Live at the Barbeque\". His debut album Illmatic (1994) received universal acclaim from both critics and the hip-hop community and is frequently ranked as one of the greatest hip-hop albums of all time.[2][3] Nas's follow-up It Was Written debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200, stayed on top for four consecutive weeks, went Double Platinum in two months, and made Nas internationally known. From 2001 to 2005, Nas was involved in a highly publicized feud with Jay-Z, popularized by the diss track \"Ether\". Nas signed to Def Jam in 2006. In 2010, he released Distant Relatives, a collaboration album with Damian Marley, donating all royalties to charities active in Africa. His 11th studio album, Life Is Good (2012) was nominated for Best Rap Album at the 55th Annual Grammy Awards.\nMTV ranked him at #5 on their list of \"The Greatest MCs of All Time\". In 2012, The Source ranked him #2 on their list of the \"Top 50 Lyricists of All Time\". In 2013, Nas was ranked 4th on MTV's \"Hottest MCs in the Game\" list. About.com ranked him first on their list of the \"50 Greatest MCs of All Time\" in 2014, and a year later, Nas was featured on \"The 10 Best Rappers of All Time\" list by Billboard.\nNasir bin Olu Dara Jones[4] was born on September 14, 1973, in Brooklyn, New York.[5][6] His father, Olu Dara (born Charles Jones III), is a jazz and blues musician from Mississippi. His mother, Fannie Ann (Little) Jones, was a Postal Service worker from North Carolina.[7] He has one sibling, a brother named Jabari Fret who is best known as \"Jungle\", a member of the hip-hop group Bravehearts. His father took his name \"Olu Dara\" from the Yoruba people.[8] His African DNA indicates he has roots in countries with high Yoruba populations Nigeria, Benin, Togo and Ghana \u2013 as well as Mali, the Ivory Coast, Cameroon, Congo, South Africa, and Senegal. His matrilineal DNA haplogroup is of African origin, found among the Yoruba[9] and Fulbe populations in Western Africa.[8]\nAs a young child, Nas and his family relocated to the Queensbridge Houses in the Long Island City neighborhood of Queens. His neighbor, Willy \"Ill Will\" Graham, influenced his interest in hip hop by playing him records.[10] His parents divorced in 1985,[10] and he dropped out of school after the eighth grade.[6] He educated himself about African culture through the Five Percent Nation and the Nuwaubian Nation.[11] In his early years, he played the trumpet and began writing his own rhymes.[12]\nLate 1980s\u20131994: Underground beginnings and album debut\nFurther information: Illmatic\nAs a teenager, Nas enlisted his best friend and upstairs neighbor Willy \"Ill Will\" Graham as his DJ. Nas initially went by the nickname \"Kid Wave\" before adopting his more commonly known alias of \"Nasty Nas\". In the late-1980s, he met up with the producer Large Professor and went to the studio where Rakim and Kool G Rap were recording their albums. When they were not in the recording studio, Nas would go into the booth and record his own material. However, none of it was ever released.[13][14] In 1991, Nas performed on Main Source's \"Live at the Barbeque\". In mid-1992, Nas was approached by MC Serch of 3rd Bass, who became his manager and secured Nas a record deal with Columbia Records during the same year. Nas made his solo debut under the name of \"Nasty Nas\" on the single \"Halftime\" from MC Serch's soundtrack for the film Zebrahead.[6] Called the new Rakim,[15] his rhyming skills attracted a significant amount of attention within the hip-hop community.\nIn 1994, Nas's debut album, Illmatic, was finally released. It was awarded best album of 1994 by The Source.[16] It also featured production from Large Professor, Pete Rock, Q-Tip, LES and DJ Premier, as well as guest appearances from Nas's friend AZ and his father Olu Dara. The album spawned several singles, including \"The World Is Yours\", \"It Ain't Hard to Tell\", and \"One Love\". Shaheem Reid of MTV News called Illmatic \"the first classic LP\" of 1994.[17] In 1994, Nas also recorded the song \"One on One\" for the soundtrack to the film Street Fighter.[18] In his book To the Break of Dawn: A Freestyle on the Hip Hop Aesthetic, William Jelani Cobb writes of Nas's impact at the time:\nNas, the poetic sage of the Queensbridge projects, was hailed as the second coming of Rakim\u2014as if the first had reached his expiration date. [...] Nas never became 'the next Rakim,' nor did he really have to. Illmatic stood on its own terms. The sublime lyricism of the CD, combined with the fact that it was delivered into the crucible of the boiling East-West conflict, quickly solidified [his] reputation as the premier writer of his time.[19]\nSteve Huey of AllMusic described Nas's lyrics on Illmatic as \"highly literate\" and his raps \"superbly fluid regardless of the size of his vocabulary\", adding that Nas is \"able to evoke the bleak reality of ghetto life without losing hope or forgetting the good times\".[20] Reviewing Nas's second album It Was Written, Leo Stanley of allmusic believed the rhymes to be not as complex as those in Illmatic but still \"not only flow, but manage to tell coherent stories as well\".[21] About.com ranked Illmatic as the greatest hip-hop album of all time,[2] and Prefix magazine praised it as \"the best hip-hop record ever made\".[3]\n1995\u20131997: Mainstream direction and the Firm\nFurther information: It Was Written and the Firm (hip hop group)\nColumbia Records began to press Nas to work towards more commercial topics, such as that of The Notorious B.I.G., who had become successful by releasing street singles that still retained radio-friendly appeal. In 1995, Nas did guest performances on the albums Doe or Die by AZ, The Infamous by The Infamous Mobb Deep, Only Built 4 Cuban Linx by Raekwon and 4,5,6 by Kool G Rap. Nas also parted ways with manager MC Serch, enlisted Steve Stoute, and began preparation for his second LP, It Was Written, consciously working towards a crossover-oriented sound. It Was Written, chiefly produced by Tone and Poke of Trackmasters, was released in mid-1996. Two singles, \"If I Ruled the World (Imagine That)\" (featuring Lauryn Hill of The Fugees) and \"Street Dreams\", including a remix with R. Kelly were instant hits.[22] These songs were promoted by big-budget music videos directed by Hype Williams, making Nas a common name among mainstream hip-hop. It Was Written featured the debut of the Firm, a supergroup consisting of Nas, AZ, Foxy Brown, and Cormega. The album also expanded on Nas's Escobar persona, who lived a Scarface/Casino-esque lifestyle. On the other hand, references to Scarface protagonist Tony Montana notwithstanding, Illmatic was more about his early life growing up in the projects.[6]\nSigned to Dr. Dre's Aftermath Entertainment label, the Firm began working on their debut album. Halfway through the production of the album, Cormega was fired from the group by Steve Stoute, who had unsuccessfully attempted to force Cormega to sign a deal with his management company. Cormega subsequently became one of Nas's most vocal opponents and released a number of underground hip hop singles \"dissing\" Nas, Stoute, and Nature, who replaced Cormega as the fourth member of the Firm.[23] Nas, Foxy Brown, AZ, and Nature Present The Firm: The Album was finally released in 1997 to mixed reviews. The album failed to live up to its expected sales, despite being certified platinum, and the members of the group disbanded to go their separate ways.[citation needed]\nDuring this period, Nas was one of four rappers (the others being B-Real, KRS-One and RBX) in the hip-hop supergroup Group Therapy, who appeared on the song \"East Coast/West Coast Killas\" from Dr. Dre Presents the Aftermath.[24]\n1998\u20132000: Inconsistent output\nSee also: The Lost Tapes (Nas album)\nNas in 1998\nIn late 1998, Nas began working on a double album, to be entitled I Am... The Autobiography; he intended it as the middle ground between Illmatic and It Was Written, with each track detailing a part of his life.[6] In 1998, Nas co-wrote and starred in Hype Williams's 1998 feature film Belly.[6] I Am... The Autobiography was completed in early 1999, and a music video was shot for its lead single, \"Nas Is Like\". It was produced by DJ Premier and contained vocal samples from \"It Ain't Hard to Tell\". Music critic M.F. DiBella noticed that Nas also covered \"politics, the state of hip-hop, Y2K, race, and religion with his own unique perspective\" in the album besides autobiographical lyrics.[25] Much of the LP was leaked into MP3 format onto the Internet, and Nas and Stoute quickly recorded enough substitute material to constitute a single-disc release.[16]\nThe second single on I Am... was \"Hate Me Now\", featuring Sean \"Puffy\" Combs, which was used as an example by Nas's critics accusing him of moving towards more commercial themes. The video featured Nas and Combs being crucified in a manner similar to Jesus Christ; after the video was completed, Combs requested his crucifixion scene be edited out of the video. However, the unedited copy of the \"Hate Me Now\" video made its way to MTV. Within minutes of the broadcast, Combs and his bodyguards allegedly made their way into Steve Stoute's office and assaulted him, at one point apparently hitting Stoute over the head with a champagne bottle. Stoute pressed charges, but he and Combs settled out-of-court that June.[16] Columbia had scheduled to release the infringed material from I Am... under the title Nastradamus during the later half of 1999, but, at the last minute, Nas decided to record an entire new album for the 1999 release of Nastradamus. Nastradamus was therefore rushed to meet a November release date. Though critics were not kind to the album, it did result in a minor hit, \"You Owe Me\".[6]\nIn 2000, Nas & Ill Will Records Presents QB's Finest, which is popularly known as simply QB's Finest, was released on Nas's Ill Will Records.[6] QB's Finest is a compilation album that featured Nas and a number of other rappers from Queensbridge projects, including Mobb Deep, Nature, Capone, the Bravehearts, Tragedy Khadafi, Millennium Thug and Cormega, who had briefly reconciled with Nas. The album also featured guest appearances from Queensbridge hip-hop legends Roxanne Shant\u00e9, MC Shan, and Marley Marl. Shan and Marley Marl both appeared on the lead single \"Da Bridge 2001\", which was based on Shan & Marl's 1986 recording \"The Bridge\".[26] Fans and critics feared that Nas's career was declining, artistically and commercially, as both I Am... and Nastradamus were criticised as inconsistent.[27]\n2001\u20132003: Dispute with Jay-Z and artistic comeback\nFurther information: God's Son (album)\nAfter trading veiled criticisms on various songs, freestyles and mixtape appearances, the highly publicised dispute between Nas and Jay-Z became widely known to the public in 2001.[6] Jay-Z, in his song \"Takeover\", criticised Nas by calling him \"fake\" and his career \"lame\".[28] Nas responded with \"Ether\", in which he compared Jay-Z to such characters as J.J. Evans from the sitcom Good Times and cigarette company mascot Joe Camel. The song was included on Nas's fifth studio album, Stillmatic, released in December 2001. His daughter, Destiny, is listed as an executive producer on Stillmatic so she can always receive royalty checks from the album.[29][30] Stillmatic peaked at No. 5 on the U.S. Billboard 200 chart and featured the singles \"Got Ur Self A...\" and \"One Mic\".\nIn response to \"Ether\", Jay-Z released the song \"Supa Ugly\", which Hot 97 radio host Angie Martinez premiered on December 11, 2001.[28] In the song, Jay-Z explicitly boasts about having an affair with Nas's girlfriend, Carmen Bryan.[31] New York City hip-hop radio station Hot 97 issued a poll asking listeners which rapper made the better diss song; Nas won with 58% while Jay-Z got 42% of the votes.[32] In 2002, in the midst of the dispute between the two New York rappers, Eminem cited both Nas and Jay-Z as being two of the best MCs in the industry, in his song 'Till I Collapse. Both the dispute and Stillmatic signalled an artistic comeback for Nas after a string of inconsistent albums.[33] The Lost Tapes, a compilation of previously unreleased or bootlegged songs from 1997-2001, was released by Columbia in September 2002. The collection attained respectable sales and received rave reviews from critics.[16]\nIn December 2002, Nas released the God's Son album including its lead single, \"Made You Look\" which used a pitched down sample of the Incredible Bongo Band's \"Apache\". The album peaked at No. 12 on the Billboard Hot 100 and No. 1 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums charts despite widespread Internet bootlegging.[34] Time Magazine named his album best hip-hop album of the year. Vibe gave it four stars and The Source gave it four mics. The second single, \"I Can\", which reworked elements from Beethoven's \"F\u00fcr Elise\", became Nas's biggest hit to date in 2003, garnering substantial radio airplay on urban, rhythmic, and top 40 radio stations, as well as on the MTV and VH1 music video networks. God's Son also includes several songs dedicated to Nas's mother, who died of cancer in April 2002, including \"Dance\". In 2003, Nas was featured on the Korn song \"Play Me\", from Korn's Take a Look in the Mirror LP. Also in 2003, a live performance in New York City, featuring Ludacris, Jadakiss, and Darryl McDaniels (of Run-D.M.C. fame), was released on DVD as Made You Look: God's Son Live.\nGod's Son was critical in the power struggle between Nas and Jay-Z in the hip-hop industry at the time.[35] In an article at the time, Joseph Jones of PopMatters stated, \"Whether you like it or not, \"Ether\" did this. With God's Son, Nas has the opportunity to cement his status as the King of NY, at least for another 3-4-year term, or he could prove that he is not the savior that hip-hop fans should be pinning their hopes on.\"[35] After the album's release, he began helping the Bravehearts, made up of his younger brother Jungle and friend Wiz (Wizard), put together their debut album, Bravehearted. The album features guest appearances from Nas, Nashawn (Millennium Thug), Lil Jon, and Jully Black.\n2004\u20132006: Double album and Def Jam\nSee also: Street's Disciple\nNas released his seventh album Street's Disciple, a sprawling double album,[6] on November 30, 2004. It addressed subject matter both political and personal, including his impending marriage to recording artist Kelis.[6] The double-sided single \"Thief's Theme\"/\"You Know My Style\" was released months before the album's release, followed by the single \"Bridging the Gap\" upon the album's release.[6] Although Street's Disciple went platinum, it served as a drop-off from Nas's previous commercial successes.[6]\nIn 2005, New York-based rapper 50 Cent dissed Nas on his song \"Piggy Bank\", which brought his reputation into question in hip-hop circles.[6] In October, Nas made a surprise appearance at Jay-Z's \"I Declare War\" concert, where they reconciled their beef.[6] At the show, Jay-Z announced to the crowd, \"It's bigger than 'I Declare War'. Let's go, Esco!\" and Nas then joined him onstage,[36] and the two performed Jay-Z's \"Dead Presidents\" (1996) together, a song that featured a prominent sample of Nas's 1994 track: \"The World Is Yours\" (1994).[6] The reconciliation created the opportunity for Nas to sign a deal with Def Jam Recordings, of which Jay-Z was president at the time.[6] He signed Nas in January 2006.[37] The signing included an agreement that Nas was to be paid about $3,000,000, including a recording budget, for each of his first two albums with Def Jam.\n2006\u20132008: Politicized efforts and controversies\nSee also: Hip Hop Is Dead and Untitled Nas album\nTentatively called Hip Hop Is Dead...The N,[37] Hip Hop Is Dead was a commentary on the state of hip-hop and featured \"Black Republican\", a hyped collaboration with Jay-Z.[6] The album debuted on Def Jam and Nas new imprint at that label, The Jones Experience, at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 charts, selling 355,000 copies\u2014Nas' third number one album, along with It Was Written and I Am....[38] It also inspired reactions about the state of hip-hop,[6] particularly controversy with Southern hip hop artists who felt the album's title was a criticism aimed at them.[39] Nas's 2004 song \"Thief's Theme\" was featured in the 2006 film The Departed.[40] Nas's former label, Columbia Records, released the compilation Greatest Hits in November.[41]\nOn October 12, 2007, Nas announced that his next album would be called Nigger. Both progressive commentators, such as Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton, and the conservative-aligned news channel Fox News were outraged; Jackson called on entertainers to stop using the epithet after comedian Michael Richards used it onstage in late 2006.[42] Controversy escalated as the album's impending release date drew nearer, going as far as to spark rumors that Def Jam was planning to drop Nas unless he changed the title.[43] Additionally, Fort Greene, Brooklyn assemblyman Hakeem Jeffries requested New York's Comptroller Thomas DiNapoli to withdraw $84,000,000 from the state pension fund that has been invested into Universal and its parent company, Vivendi, if the album's title was not changed.[44] On the opposite side of the spectrum, many of the most famous names in the entertainment industry expressed a sense of trust in Nas for using the racial epithet as the title of his full-length LP.[45][46] Nas's management worried that the album would not be sold by chain stores such as Wal-Mart, thus limiting its distribution.[47]\nOn May 19, 2008, Nas decided to forgo an album title.[48] Responding to Jesse Jackson's remarks and use of the word \"nigger\", Nas called him \"the biggest player hater\", stating \"His time is up. All you old niggas' time is up. We heard your voice, we saw your marching, we heard your sermons. We don't want to hear that shit no more. It's a new day. It's a new voice. I'm here now. We don't need Jesse; I'm here. I got this. We the voice now. It's no more Jesse. Sorry. Goodbye. You ain't helping nobody in the 'hood and that's the bottom line.\"[49] He also said of the album's title:\nIt's important to me that this album gets to the fans. It's been a long time coming. I want my fans to know that creatively and lyrically, they can expect the same content and the same messages. The people will always know what the real title of this album is and what to call it.[50]\n\u2014\u2009 Nas\nThe album was ultimately released on July 15, 2008, untitled. It featured production from Polow da Don, stic.man of Dead Prez, Sons of Light and J. Myers,[51] \"Hero\", the album's lead single released on June 23, 2008, reached No. 97 on the Billboard Hot 100 and No. 87 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Singles & Tracks.[52] In July, Nas attained a shoe deal with Fila.[53] In an interview with MTV News in July, Nas speculated that he might release two albums: one produced by DJ Premier and another by Dr. Dre\u2014simultaneously the same day.[54] Nas worked on Dr. Dre's studio album Detox.[55] Nas was also awarded 'Emcee of the Year' in the HipHopDX 2008 Awards for his latest solo effort, the quality of his appearances on other albums and was described as having \"become an artist who thrives off of reinvention and going against the system.\"[56]\nBill O'Reilly and Virginia Tech controversy\nNas performing in Ottawa, 2007\nOn September 6, 2007, Nas performed at a free concert for the Virginia Tech student body and faculty, following the school shooting there. He was joined by John Mayer, Alan Jackson, Phil Vassar, and Dave Matthews Band.[57] When announced that Nas was to perform, political commentator Bill O'Reilly and Fox News denounced the concert and called for Nas's removal, citing \"violent\" lyrics on songs such as \"Shoot 'Em Up\", \"Got Urself a Gun\", and \"Made You Look\". During his Talking Points Memo segment for August 15, 2007, an argument erupted in which O'Reilly claimed that it was not only Nas's lyrical content that made him inappropriate for the event, citing the gun conviction on Nas's criminal record.[58] In the midst of his debate with author Bakari Kitwana (The Hip Hop Generation), who defended Nas, claiming that Fox News had \"cherry picked\" select fragments of the songs to make their case, O'Reilly shouted, \"Even in his personal life, man, he's got a conviction for weapons, all right? He's got a weapons conviction, sir! On his sheet! This is a school that had a mass murderer with a shotgun gunning down people\u2014this guy has got a conviction for weapons, and you say he's appropriate? Come on!\" O'Reilly repeated the claim another five times before cutting the segment short.[citation needed]\nOn September 6, 2007, during his set at \"A Concert for Virginia Tech\", Nas twice referred to Bill O'Reilly as \"a chump\", prompting loud cheers by members of the crowd. About two weeks later, Nas was interviewed by Shaheem Reid of MTV News, where he criticised O'Reilly, calling him uncivilized and willing to go to extremes for publicity.[59] Responding to O'Reilly, Nas, in an interview with MTV News, said:\nHe doesn't understand the younger generation. He deals with the past. The people he represents are Republican, older, a generation that has nothing to do with the reality of what's happening now with my generation. ... He's not really on my radar. People like him are supposed to be taught and people like me are supposed to let niggas like him know. I don't take him serious. His shit is all about getting facts twisted or whatever. I wouldn't honor anything Bill O'Reilly has to say. It just shows you what bloodsuckers like him do: They abuse something like the Virginia Tech tragedy for show ratings. You can't talk to a person like that.[60]\nOn July 23, 2008, Nas appeared on The Colbert Report to discuss his opinion of O'Reilly and Fox News, which he accused of bias against the African-American community and re-challenged O'Reilly to a debate.[61] During the appearance, Nas sat on boxes of more than 625,000 signatures gathered by online advocacy organisation Color of Change in support of a petition accusing Fox of race-baiting and fear-mongering.[61]\n2009\u2013present: Collaboration, Life Is Good and Nasir\nSee also: Distant Relatives, Life Is Good (Nas album), and Nasir (album)\nAt the 2009 Grammy Awards, Nas confirmed he was collaborating on an album with reggae singer Damian Marley which was expected to be released in late 2009. Nas said of the collaboration in an interview \"I was a big fan of his father and of course all the children, all the offspring, and Damian, I kind of looked at Damian as a rap guy. His stuff is not really singing, or if he does, it comes off more hard, like on some street shit. I always liked how reggae and hip-hop have always been intertwined and always kind of pushed each other, I always liked the connection. I'd worked with people before from the reggae world but when I worked with Damian, the whole workout was perfect\".[62] A portion of the profit was planned to go towards building a school in Africa.[63] He went on to say that it was \"too early to tell the title or anything like that\".[64] The Los Angeles Times reported that the album would be titled Distant Relatives.[65] Nas also revealed that he would begin working on his tenth studio album following the release of Distant Relatives.[66] During late 2009, Nas used his live band Mulatto with music director Dustin Moore for concerts in Europe and Australia.[67]\nNas and Damian Marley performing in New Zealand, 2011\nAfter announcing a possible release in 2010,[68] a follow-up compilation to The Lost Tapes (2002) was delayed indefinitely due to issues between him and Def Jam.[69] His eleventh studio album, Life Is Good (2012) was produced primarily by Salaam Remi and No I.D, and released on July 13, 2012. Nas called the album a \"magic moment\" in his rap career.[70]\nNas performing at the 2015 Sugar Mountain festival, Melbourne, Australia\nIn 2011, Nas announced that he would release collaboration albums with Mobb Deep, Common, and a third with DJ Premier.[71][72][73] Common said of the project in a 2011 interview, \"At some point, we will do that. We'd talked about it and we had a good idea to call it Nas.Com. That was actually going to be a mixtape at one point. But we decided that we should make it an album.\"[74] Life is Good would be nominated for Best Rap Album at the 2013 Grammy Awards.\nIn January 2013, Nas announced he had begun working on his twelfth studio album, which would be his final album for Def Jam.[75] The album was supposed to be released during 2015.[76] In October 2013, DJ Premier said that his collaboration album with Nas, would be released following his twelfth studio album.[77] In October 2013, Nas confirmed that a rumored song \"Sinatra in the Sands\" featuring Jay-Z, Justin Timberlake, and Timbaland would be featured on the album.[76]\nOn April 16, 2014, on the twentieth anniversary of Illmatic,[78] the documentary Nas: Time Is Illmatic was premiered which recounted circumstances leading up to Nas's debut album.[79] It was reported on September 10, that Nas has finished his last album with Def Jam.[80] On October 30, Nas released a song which might have been the first single on his new album, titled \"The Season\", produced by J Dilla.[81] Nas has also collaborated with the Australian hip-hop group, Bliss n Eso, in 2014. They released the track \"I Am Somebody\" in May 2014. Nas was featured on the song \"We Are\" from Justin Bieber's fourth studio album, Purpose, released in November 2015.\nNas was announced as one of the executive producers of the Netflix original series, The Get Down, prior to its release in August 2016. He narrated the series and rapped as adult Ezekiel of 1996. He also appeared on DJ Khaled's album Major Key, on a track simply titled \"Nas Album Done\", suggesting an upcoming album was not only completed, but also was imminent.\nOn October 16, 2016, he received the Jimmy Iovine Icon Award at 2016 REVOLT Music Conference for having a lasting impact and unique influence on music, numerous years in the rap business, his partnership with Hennessy, and Mass Appeal imprint by Puff Daddy.[82]\nIn November 2016, Nas collaborated with Lin-Manuel Miranda, Dave East and Aloe Blacc on a song called \"Wrote My Way Out\", which appears on The Hamilton Mixtape.\nOn April 12, 2017, Nas released the song Angel Dust as soundtrack for TV series The Getdown. It contains a sample of the Gil Scott-Heron and Brian Jackson song Angel Dust.\nIn June 2017, Nas appeared in the award-winning 2017 documentary The American Epic Sessions directed by Bernard MacMahon, where he recorded live direct-to-disc on the restored first electrical sound recording system from the 1920s.[83] He performed \"On the Road Again\", a 1928 song by the Memphis Jug Band,[84] which received universal acclaim with The Hollywood Reporter describing his performance as \"fantastic\"[85] and the Financial Times praising his \"superb cover of the Memphis Jug Band's \"On the Road Again\", exposing the hip-hop blueprint within the 1928 stomper.\"[86] \"On the Road Again\", and a performance of \"One Mic\",[87] were released on Music from The American Epic Sessions: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack on June 9, 2017.[88]\nIn April 2018, Kanye West announced on Twitter that Nas' twelfth' studio album will be released on June 15, also serving as executive producer for the album.[89][90] The album was announced the day before release, titled Nasir, after Nas' first name.\nFollowing the release of Nasir, Nas confirmed he would return to completing a previous album, including production from Swizz Beatz and RZA.[91][92][93]\nNas has been praised for his ability to create a \"devastating match between lyrics and production\" by journalist Peter Shapiro, as well as creating a \"potent evocation of life on the street\", and he has even been compared to Rakim for his lyrical technique. In his book Book of Rhymes: The Poetics of Hip Hop (2009), writer Adam Bradley states, \"Nas is perhaps contemporary rap's greatest innovator in storytelling. His catalog includes songs narrated before birth ('Fetus') and after death ('Amongst Kings'), biographies ('UBR [Unauthorized Biography of Rakim]') and autobiographies ('Doo Rags'), allegorical tales ('Money Is My Bitch') and epistolary ones ('One Love'), he's rapped in the voice of a woman ('Sekou Story') and even of a gun ('I Gave You Power').\"[94] Robert Christgau writes that \"Nas has been transfiguring [gangsta rap] since Illmatic\".[95] Kool Moe Dee notes that Nas has an \"off-beat conversational flow\" in his book There's a God on the Mic \u2013 he says: \"before Nas, every MC focused on rhyming with a cadence that ultimately put the words that rhymed on beat with the snare drum. Nas created a style of rapping that was more conversational than ever before\".[96]\nOC of D.I.T.C. comments in the book How to Rap: \"Nas did the song backwards ['Rewind']... that was a brilliant idea\".[97] Also in How to Rap, 2Mex of The Visionaries describes Nas's flow as \"effervescent\",[98] Rah Digga says Nas's lyrics have \"intricacy\",[99] Bootie Brown of The Pharcyde explains that Nas does not always have to make words rhyme as he is \"charismatic\",[100] and Nas is also described as having a \"densely packed\"[101] flow, with compound rhymes that \"run over from one beat into the next or even into another bar\".[102]\nIn 2006, Nas was ranked fifth on MTV's \"10 Greatest MCs of All Time\" list.[15] In 2012, The Source ranked him No. 2 on their list of the Top 50 Lyricists of All Time.[103] In 2013, Nas was ranked fourth on MTV's \"Hottest MCs in the Game\" list.[104] His debut Illmatic is widely considered among the greatest hip hop albums of all time.[105][106]\nInitially friends, Nas and Jay Z had met a number of times in the 1990s with no animosity between the two. Jay Z requested that Nas appear on his 1996 album Reasonable Doubt on the track \"Bring it On\"; however, Nas never showed up to the studio and was not included on the album. In response to this, Jay Z asked producer Ski Beatz to sample a line from Nas' song The World is Yours, with the sample featured heavily in what went on to be Dead Presidents II. The two traded subliminal responses for the next couple of years, until the beef was escalated further in 2001 after Jay Z publicly addressed Nas at the Summer Jam, performing what would go on to be known as Takeover, ending the performance by saying \"ask Nas, he don't want it with Hov\". After Jay Z eventually released the song on his 2001 album The Blueprint, Nas responded with the song Ether, from his album Stillmatic, with both fans and critics saying that the song had effectively saved Nas' career and marked his return to prominence, and almost unanimously agreeing Nas had won their feud. Jay Z responded with a freestyle over the instrumental to Nas' Got Ur Self a Gun, known as \"Supa Ugly\". In the song, Jay Z makes reference to Nas' girlfriend and daughter, going into graphic detail about having an affair with his girlfriend.[107][108][109][110] Jay Z's mother was personally disgusted by the song, and demanded he apologise to Nas and his family, which he did in December 2001 on Hot 97.[111] Supa Ugly marked the last direct diss song between Jay Z and Nas, however, the two continued to trade subliminals on their subsequent releases. The feud was officially bought to an end in 2005, when Jay Z and Nas performed on stage together in a surprise concert also featuring P Diddy, Kanye West and Beanie Sigel.[112] The following year, Nas signed with Def Jam Recordings, of which Jay Z then served as president.[113]\nAfter Nas was kicked off of the 2002 Summer Jam lineup due to allegedly planning to perform the song Ether while a mock lynching of a Jay Z doll took place behind him, Cam'ron was announced as a last minute replacement and headlined the show. Nas appeared on Power 105.1 days later and addressed a number of fellow artists, including Nelly, N.O.R.E. and Cam'ron himself.[114] Nas praised Cam'ron as a \"good lyricist\" but branded his album Come Home With Me \"wack\".[115] After Cam'ron heard of Nas' words, he appeared on Funkmaster Flex's Hot 97, and performed a freestyle over the beat to Nas' song Hate Me Now, making reference to Nas' family and daughter. Nas appeared on the radio days later, calling Cam'ron a \"dummy\" for supposedly being used by Hot 97 to generate ratings. Nas responded on his 2002 album God's Son, claiming Cam'ron had HIV. Cam'ron and the rest of The Diplomats, specifically Jim Jones continued to attack Nas throughout 2003, on numerous mixtapes, albums and radio freestyles, however, the feud between the two slowly died down and they eventually reconciled in 2014.[116]\nAfter 2Pac interpreted lines directed to the Notorious B.I.G. on Nas' 1996 album It Was Written to be aimed towards him, he attacked Nas on the track Against All Odds from The Don Killuminati: The 7 Day Theory. Nas himself later admitted he was bought to tears when he heard the diss because he idolised 2Pac.[117] The two later met in Central Park before the 1996 MTV Video Music Awards and ended their feud, with Tupac promising to remove any disses aimed at Nas from the official album release, however, Shakur was murdered in September that year before any edits to the album could be made. Since his death, Nas has praised Shakur for being \"one of a kind\".[118][119]\nAfter Nas proclaimed \"hip hop was dead\" on his 2006 song of the same name and blamed southern hip hop as the cause, many artists from the south took offence, including Nas' then-Def Jam labelmate Young Jeezy, who claimed Nas had \"no street credibility\" and vowed to sell more copies of his album The Inspiration than Nas' upcoming Hip Hop Is Dead album. After failing to do so, Jeezy took back his disses towards Nas, and the two later collaborated on the 2008 hit single My President.[120][121]\nOn April 10, 2013, Nas invested an undisclosed six-figure sum into Mass Appeal Magazine, where he went on to serve as the publication's associate publisher, joined by creative firm Decon and White Owl Capital Partners.[122][123] In June 2013, he opened his own sneaker store.[124][125]\nIn September 2013, he invested in a technology startup company, a job search appmaker called Proven.[126] In 2014, Nas invested as part of a $2.8M round in viral video startup ViralGains another addition to Queens-bridge venture partners portfolio.[127][128]\nNas has a partnership with Hennessy and has been working with their \"Wild Rabbit\" campaign.[129]\nIn May 2014, Nas partnered with job placement startup Koru to fund a scholarship for 10 college graduates to go through Koru's training program. Nas also will be joining the startup as a guest coach.[130] Nas is a co-owner of a Cloud-based service LANDR, an automated, drag-and-drop digital audio postproduction tool which automates \"mastering\", the final stage in audio production.[131] In June 2015, Nas joined forces with New York City soul food restaurant Sweet Chick.[132] He plans to expand the restaurant brand nationally.[133][134][135][136] The Los Angeles location opened in April 2017.[137] He owns his own clothing line called HSTRY.[138]\nHe has continued to invest heavily in technology startups including Dropbox, Lyft, and Robinhood.[139]\nNas is a spokesperson and mentor for P'Tones Records, a non-profit after school music program with the mission \"to create constructive opportunities for urban youth through no-cost music programs.\"[140]\nHe is a cousin of American actress Yara Shahidi.[141]\nOn June 15, 1994, Nas's ex-fianc\u00e9e Carmen Bryan gave birth to their daughter, Destiny.[142][143][144] She later confessed to Nas that she had a relationship with his then-rival rapper and nemesis Jay-Z, also accusing Jay-Z of putting subliminal messages in his lyrics about their relationship together, causing an even bigger rift in the feud between the two hit rap music giants.\nNas also briefly dated Mary J. Blige.[143] In 2005, Nas married R&B singer Kelis in Atlanta after a two-year relationship.[145][146] On April 30, 2009, a spokesperson confirmed that Kelis filed for divorce, citing irreconcilable differences.[147][148] Kelis gave birth to Nas's first son on July 21, 2009, although the event was soured by a disagreement which ended in Nas announcing the birth of his son, Knight, at a gig in Queens, NY, against Kelis's wishes.[149] The birth was also announced by Nas via an online video.[150] The couple's divorce was finalized on May 21, 2010.[151] In 2018, Kelis accused Nas of being physically and mentally abusive during their marriage.[152] Nas replied to the accusations on social media, accusing Kelis of attempting to slander Nas in the time of a custody battle and accusing Kelis of abusing his daughter, Destiny.[153]\nIn January 2012 Nas was involved in a dispute with a concert promoter in Angola, having accepted $300,000 for a concert in Luanda, Angola's capital for New Year's Eve and then not showing up. American promoter Patrick Allocco and his son, who arranged for Nas's concert, were detained at gunpoint and taken to an Angolan jail by the local promoter who fronted the $300,000 for the concert. Only after the US Embassy intervened were the promoter and his son allowed to leave jail\u2014but were placed under house arrest at their hotel.[154] As of the end of the month Nas returned all $300,000 and after 49 days of travel ban Allocco and his son were both released.[155]\nOn March 15, 2012, Nas became the first rapper to have a personal verified account on Rap Genius where he explains all his own lyrics and commenting on the lyrics of other rappers he admires.[156][157]\nIn September 2009 the U.S. Internal Revenue Service filed a federal tax lien against Nas for over $2.5 million, seeking unpaid taxes dating back to 2006.[158] By early 2011 this figure had ballooned to over $6.4 million.[159] Early in 2012 reports emerged that the IRS had filed papers in Georgia to garnish a portion of Nas's earnings from material published under BMI and ASCAP, until his delinquent tax bill is settled.[160]\nIn May 2013, it was announced that Nas would open a sneaker store in Las Vegas called 12 am RUN (pronounced Midnight Run) as part of The LINQ retail development.[161]\nIn July 2013, he was honored by Harvard University, as the institution established the Nasir Jones Hip-Hop Fellowship, which would serve to fund scholars and artists who show potential and creativity in the arts in connection to hip hop.[162]\nIn an October 2014 episode of PBS's Finding Your Roots, Nas learned about five generations of his ancestry. His great-great-great-grandmother, Pocahontas Little, was a slave who was sold for $830. When host Henry Louis Gates showed Nas her bill of sale and told him more about the man who bought her, Nas remarked that he is considering buying the land where he lived. Nas is also shown the marriage certificate of his great-great-great-grandmother, Pocahontas, and great-great-great-grandfather, Calvin.[163][164]\nNas is a New York Mets fan.[165]\nThe Grammy Awards are held annually by the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences. Nas has 13 Grammy nominations altogether.[166]\n1997 \"If I Ruled the World (Imagine That)\" Best Rap Solo Performance Nominated\n2000 I Am...

He ruled the Sultanate during the time of the First Crusade and thus faced the attack.[1] He also re-established the Sultanate of Rum after the death of Malik Shah I of Great Seljuq and defeated the Crusaders in three battles during the Crusade of 1101.\n2.1 People's Crusade\n2.3 Crusade of 1101\n3 War and death in Syria\nAfter the death of his father, Suleyman, in 1086, he became a hostage of Sultan Malik Shah I of Great Seljuq, but was released when Malik Shah died in 1092. Kilij Arslan then marched at the head of the Turkish Oghuz Yiva tribe army and set up his capital at Nicaea, replacing Amin 'l Ghazni, the governor appointed by Malik Shah I.\nFollowing the death of Malik Shah I the individual tribes, the Danishmends, Mangujekids, Saltuqids, Tengribirmish begs, Artuqids (Ortoqids) and Akhlat-Shahs, had started vying with each other to establish their own independent states. Alexius Comnenus's Byzantine intrigues further complicated the situation. He married Ay\u015fe Hatun, the daughter of the Emir Tzachas to attempt to ally himself against the Byzantines, who commanded a strong naval fleet. They had four sons: Malik Shah, Mesud I, Arab and Toghrul. In 1094, Kilij Arslan received a letter from Alexius suggesting that the Tzachas sought to target him to move onto the Byzantines, thereupon Kilij Arslan marched with an army to Smyrna, Tzachas\u2019s capital, and invited his father-in-law to a banquet in his tent where he slew him while he was intoxicated.[2]\nThe Crusades[edit]\nPeople's Crusade[edit]\nMain article: People's Crusade\nThe People's Crusade (also called the Peasants' Crusade) army of Peter the Hermit and Walter the Penniless arrived at Nicaea in 1096. A German contingent of the crusade overran the castle Xerigordon and held it until Kilij sent a force to starve them out. Those that renounced Christianity were spared and sent into captivity to the east, the rest were slaughtered.[3]\nThe remainder of Peter's crusade was surprised near the village of Dracon by Kilij Arslan's army.[4] They were easily defeated and around 30,000 men, women and children were killed.[5] He then invaded the Danishmend Emirate of Malik Ghazi in eastern Anatolia.\nFirst Crusade[edit]\nMain article: First Crusade\nBecause of this easy first victory he did not consider the main crusader army, led by various nobles of western Europe, to be a serious threat. He resumed his war with the Danishmends, and was away from Nicaea when these new Crusaders besieged Nicaea in May 1097. He hurried back to his capital to find it surrounded by the Crusaders, and was defeated in battle with them on May 21. The city then surrendered to the Byzantines and his wife and children were captured. When the crusaders sent the Sultana to Constantinople, to their dismay she was later returned without ransom in 1097 because of the relationship between Kilij Arslan and Alexius Comnenus.\nAs result of the stronger invasion, R\u00fcm and the Danismends allied in their attempt to turn back the crusaders. The Crusaders continued to split their forces as they marched across Anatolia. The combined Danishmend and R\u00fcm forces planned to ambush the Crusaders near Dorylaeum on June 29. However, Kilij Arslan's horse archers could not penetrate the line of defense set up by the Crusader knights, and the main body under Bohemund arrived to capture the Turkish camp on July 1. Kilij Arslan retreated and inflicted losses on the Crusader Army with guerilla warfare and hit-and-run tactics. He also destroyed crops and water supplies along their route in order to damage logistical supplying of the Crusader Army.\nSee also: Siege of Nicaea, Battle of Dorylaeum\nCrusade of 1101[edit]\nCrusade of 1101\nMain article: Crusade of 1101\nGhazni ibn Danishmend captured Bohemond resulting in a new force of Lombards attempting to rescue him. In their march they took Ankara from Arslan upon the Danishmends. In alliance with Radwan the Atabeg of Aleppo he ambushed this force at the Battle of Mersivan. In 1101 he defeated another Crusader army at Heraclea Cybistra, which had come to assist the fledging Crusader States in Syria. This was an important victory for the Turks, as it proved that an army of Crusader knights were not invincible. After this victory he moved his capital to Konya and defeated a force led by William II of Nevers who attempted to march upon it as well as the subsequent force a week later.\nIn 1104 he resumed once more his war with the Danishmends who were now weakened after the death of Malik Ghazi, demanding half the ransom gained for Bohemund. As a result, Bohemund allied with the Danishmends against R\u00fcm and the Byzantines.\nWar and death in Syria[edit]\nAfter the crusades he moved towards the east taking Harran, and Diyarbakr. In 1107 he conquered Mosul, but he was defeated by Mehmed I of Great Seljuq supported by the Ortoqids and Fakhr al-Mulk Radwan of Aleppo at the battle of Khabur river.[6] Having lost the battle, Kilij Arslan died trying to escape across the river.[7]\n^ Outline History of the Islamic World By Masudul Hasan, Abdul Waheed, p.159\n^ Brand 1989, p. 3.\n^ The First Crusade:Constantinople to Antioch, Steven Runciman, A History of the Crusades, Vol.1, Ed.

        "raw_content": "(Redirected from Puzzle platformer)\nThis article is about the video games genre. For platformer units in petroleum refining, see Catalytic reforming.\nDustforce (2012) trailer showing platform game features such as enemies, obstacles, double jumping and wall jumping\nPlatform games, or platformers, are a video game genre and subgenre of action game. In a platformer the player controlled character must jump and climb between suspended platforms while avoiding obstacles. Environments often feature uneven terrain of varying height that must be traversed. The player often has some control over the height and distance of jumps to avoid letting their character fall to their death or miss necessary jumps. The most common unifying element of games of this genre is the jump button, but now there are other alternatives like swiping a touchscreen. Other acrobatic maneuvers may factor into the gameplay as well, such as swinging from objects such as vines or grappling hooks, as in Ristar or Bionic Commando, or bouncing from springboards or trampolines, as in Alpha Waves. These mechanics, even in the context of other genres, are commonly called platforming, a verbification of platform. Games where jumping is automated completely, such as 3D games in The Legend of Zelda series, fall outside of the genre.\nPlatform games originated in the early 1980s, which were often about climbing ladders as much as jumping, with 3D successors popularized in the mid-1990s. The term describes games where jumping on platforms is an integral part of the gameplay and came into use after the genre had been established, no later than 1983.[1][2] The genre is frequently combined with elements of other genres, such as the shooter elements in Contra, Beat 'em up elements of Viewtiful Joe, adventure elements of Flashback, or role-playing game elements of Castlevania: Symphony of the Night.\nWhile commonly associated with console gaming, there have been many important platform games released to video arcades, as well as for handheld game consoles and home computers. North America, Europe and Japan have played major parts in the genre's evolution. Platform themes range from cartoon-like games to science fiction and fantasy epics.\nAt one point, platform games were the most popular genre of video game. At the peak of their popularity, it is estimated that between one-quarter and one-third of console games were platformers.[3] No genre either before or since has been able to achieve a similar market share. As of 2006, the genre had become far less dominant, representing a two percentage market share as compared to fifteen percent in 1998,[4] but is still commercially viable, with a number of games selling in the millions of units. Since 2010, a variety of endless running platformers for mobile devices have brought renewed popularity to the genre.\n1.1 Single screen movement\n1.2 Classification of early platformers\n1.3 Scrolling movement\n1.3.1 Second-generation side-scrollers\n1.3.2 Decline of 2D\n1.4 The third dimension\n1.4.1 Reshaping the genre\n1.4.2 Into the 21st century\n2.1 Puzzle-platform game\n2.2 Run-and-gun platform game\n2.3 Cinematic platform game\n2.4 Comical action game/Single Screen Platformer\n2.5 Isometric platform game\n2.6 Platform-adventure game\n2.7 Endless running game\nSingle screen movement[edit]\nThis Donkey Kong (1981) level demonstrates extensive jumping between platforms, the genre's defining trait.\nPlatform games originated in the late 1970s - early 1980s. Most, but not all, early examples of platform games were confined to a static playing field, generally viewed in profile.\nSpace Panic, a 1980 arcade release by Universal, is sometimes credited as being the first platform game,[5] though the distinction is contentious. While the player had the ability to fall, there was no ability to jump, so the game does not satisfy most modern definitions of the genre. However, it clearly influenced the genre, with gameplay centered on climbing ladders between different floors, a common element in many early platform games. A difficult game to learn, Space Panic remained obscure as an arcade game, but the 1981 unauthorized clone Apple Panic was a hit for home computers.\nAnother precursor to the genre from 1980 was Nichibutsu's Crazy Climber, which revolved around the concept of climbing vertically-scrolling skyscrapers.[6][7]\nDonkey Kong, an arcade game created by Nintendo and released in July 1981, was the first game that allowed players to jump over obstacles and across gaps, making it the first true platformer.[8][9] It introduced Mario, a modern icon of the genre, under the name Jumpman. Donkey Kong was ported to many consoles and computers at the time, notably as the system-selling pack-in game for ColecoVision,[10] and also a handheld version from Coleco in 1982.[11] The game helped cement Nintendo's position as an important name in the video game industry internationally.\nThe following year, Donkey Kong received a sequel, Donkey Kong Jr.. The third game in the series, Donkey Kong 3, was not a platformer, but it was succeeded by Mario Bros, a platform game that offered two-player simultaneous cooperative play. This title laid the groundwork for other popular two-player cooperative platformers such as Fairyland Story and Bubble Bobble, which in turn influenced many of the single-screen platformers that would follow.\nBeginning in 1982, transitional games emerged that did not feature scrolling graphics, but had levels that spanned several connected screens. Pitfall!, released for the Atari 2600, featured broad, horizontally extended levels. It became one of the best-selling games on the system and was a breakthrough for the genre. Smurf: Rescue in Gargamel's Castle was released on the ColecoVision that same year, adding uneven terrain and scrolling pans between static screens. Manic Miner (1983) and its sequel Jet Set Willy (1984) continued this style of multi-screen levels on home computers. Wanted: Monty Mole won the first ever award for Best Platform game in 1984.[12] Later that same year, Epyx released Impossible Mission, which further expanded on the exploration aspect and laid the groundwork for such games as Prince of Persia.\nSee also: Wraparound (video games) and Flip-screen\nClassification of early platformers[edit]\nThe term platform game is somewhat ambiguous, particularly when referring to games that predate the widespread, international use of the term. The concept of a platform game as it was defined in its earliest days is somewhat different from how the term is commonly used today.\nFollowing the release of Donkey Kong, a genre of similarly-styled games emerged characterized by a profile view of tiers connected by ladders. These included Kangaroo, Ponpoko, Canyon Climber, Miner 2049er, Lode Runner, and Jumpman. The two most common gameplay goals were to get to the top of the screen or to collect all of a particular item, both of which are found in Donkey Kong. The North American press, including leading magazine Electronic Games, labeled the genre \"climbing games.\"[13] London-based TV Gamer magazine listed \"Climbing\" as a game category in the March 1983 issue, calling Donkey Kong \"the most famous of all climbing games.\"[14] Circa 1983-4[vague] some UK press began referring to the in-game tiers as \"platforms\" and started calling these titles \"platform games\" not long after.[citation needed]\nThe terms platform game and platformer have since gained wide use in North America, and across Europe, and since the earliest uses the concept has evolved, particularly as the genre peaked in popularity during the early 1990s. Many of the games that were part of the early platform genre, such as Donkey Kong and Miner 2049er, are still regarded as platform games in the modern sense.\nScrolling movement[edit]\nSee also: Side-scrolling video game\nJump Bug (1981) introduced scrolling to the genre.\nThe first platform game to use scrolling graphics came years before the genre became a trend.[15] Jump Bug is a platform-shooter developed by Alpha Denshi under contract for Hoei/Coreland[16] and released to arcades in 1981, only five months after Donkey Kong.[17] Players control a bouncing car that jumps on various platforms such as buildings, clouds, and hills. As part of a nascent genre, its development was not strongly influenced by existing conventions, nor was it said to be a major influence on games immediately after it. Jump Bug offered a glimpse of what was to come, with uneven, independently suspended platforms and levels that scroll both horizontally and vertically.[15]\nOnly a few home systems of the early 1980s had hardware support for smooth background scrolling\u2014most notably the Atari 8-bit family. Nevertheless, Sierra On-Line released B.C.'s Quest For Tires in 1983 on the ColecoVision and several home computer platforms.[18] The game features large, smooth-scrolling levels and simple platform gameplay in which players jump over oncoming pitfalls and obstacles, much like Moon Patrol. The same year, a scrolling platform game appeared on the Commodore 64 and Atari home computers called Snokie.[19] It added uneven terrain and an emphasis on precision jumping.\nSuper Mario Bros. (1985), one of the best selling video games of all time[20]\nBased on the Saturday morning cartoon rather than the maze game, Namco's 1984 Pac-Land is a bidirectional, horizontally-scrolling, arcade platformer with walking, running, jumping, springboards, and a series of unique levels.[21]\nNintendo's platform game Super Mario Bros., released for the Nintendo Entertainment System in 1985, became the archetype for many platformers to follow. The title was bundled with Nintendo systems in North America, Japan, and Europe, and went on to sell over 40 million copies, according to the 1999 Guinness Book of World Records. Its success as a pack-in led many companies to see platform games as vital to their success, and contributed greatly to popularizing the genre during the 8-bit console generation.\nSega attempted to emulate this success with their Alex Kidd series, which began in 1986 on the Master System with Alex Kidd in Miracle World. It's a platformer that features horizontal and vertical scrolling levels, the ability to punch enemies and obstacles, and shops where the player can buy power-ups and vehicles. Some of the bosses are fought through a minigame of rock-paper-scissors where others you have to fight or crash the Sukopako \"motorbike\" into a pirate bear. The environments are varied, including mountains, caves, oceans, forests, and underwater segments.[22] Another Sega platformer series that began that same year is Wonder Boy. The original Wonder Boy in 1986 was inspired more by Pac-Land than Super Mario Bros, and features skateboarding segments that gives the game a greater sense of speed than other platformers at the time,[23] while its sequel, Wonder Boy in Monster Land, takes the series in a new direction by combining action-adventure and action role-playing elements with traditional platforming.[24] Wonder Boy in turn inspired platformers such as Adventure Island, Dynastic Hero, Popful Mail, and Shantae.[23]\nScrolling platformers went portable in the late 1980s with games such as Super Mario Land, and the genre continued to maintain its popularity, with many titles released for the handheld Game Boy and Game Gear systems. Because of their small size, technical constraints, and blurring associated with the LCD technology, fast-paced action-based platformers were more difficult to develop for these handheld systems. Because of this, many early handheld platformers leaned towards slower-paced play styles and a greater emphasis on puzzles.\nDuring Sixth Generation and early Seventh generations, home consoles largely transitioned to 3D games and handhelds became a bastion for traditional side-scrolling platform games, until the release of New Super Mario Bros. Wii (2009) revived interest in the subgenre on consoles. New Super Mario Bros. (2006) is a very successful traditional platform game, selling more than five million copies in Japan and North America during its first year of release.[25][26]\nOne of the first platform games to scroll in all four directions freely and follow the on-screen character's movement is in a vector game called Major Havoc, which comprises a number of mini-games, including a simple platformer, a shoot 'em up sequence, a landing sequence, and a Breakout clone.[27] One of the first raster-based platform games to scroll fluidly in all directions in this manner is 1984's Legend of Kage.[citation needed]\nIn 1985, Enix released an open world platform-adventure game, Brain Breaker.[28] The following year saw the release of a more successful open-world platform-adventure, Nintendo's Metroid, which was critically acclaimed for having a balance between open-ended and guided exploration. Another platform-adventure released that year, Pony Canyon's Super Pitfall, was critically panned for its vagueness and weak game design. That same year Jaleco released Esper Boukentai, a platform-action sequel to Psychic 5 that scrolled in all directions and allowed the player character to make huge multistory jumps, which were necessary to navigate the giant, vertically oriented levels.[29] Telenet Japan also released its own take on the platform-action game, Valis, which contained anime-style cut scenes.[30]\nIn 1987, Capcom's Mega Man introduced non-linear level progression where the player is able to choose the order in which they completed the games levels. This was a stark contrast to both linear games like Super Mario Bros. and open-world games like Metroid. GamesRadar credits the \"level select\" feature of Mega Man as the basis for the non-linear mission structure found in most open-world, multi-mission, sidequest-heavy games.[31] Another Capcom platformer that year was Bionic Commando, a multidirectional-scrolling platform-action game which introduced a grappling hook mechanic that has since appeared in dozens of later platform games, including Earthworm Jim and Tomb Raider.[32]\nSecond-generation side-scrollers[edit]\nSonic the Hedgehog (1991) showed what new technology could do for the genre.\nThe advent of 16-bit home consoles marked an evolutionary step for the genre. By the time the Genesis and Super NES launched, platform games were the most popular genre in home console gaming and were seen as vital for winning the console war. There was a particular emphasis on having a flagship platform title exclusive to a format, featuring a mascot character. In 1989, Sega released Alex Kidd in the Enchanted Castle. The title was only modestly successful, and Sega realized it needed a stronger mascot to move Genesis units. That same year, Capcom released the platformer Strider, which scrolled in multiple directions and allowed the player to summon artificial intelligence (AI) partners, such as a droid, tiger, and hawk, to help fight enemies.[33] Sega's Shadow Dancer, released the same year, also featured an AI partner, a dog who would follow the player around and aid in battle.[34] In 1990, Hudson Soft released Bonk's Adventure, featuring a character that was positioned as NEC's mascot.[35] The following year, Takeru's Cocoron, a late platformer for the Famicom, introduced true character customization, allowing players to build a character from a toy box filled with spare parts.[32]\n1990 marked the release of the Super NES, along with the eagerly anticipated Super Mario World. In order to fend off the new competition, Sega released Sonic the Hedgehog.[36][37] Whereas Nintendo's offering featured a conservative design, true to the Mario tradition, Sonic showcased a new style of design made possible by a new generation of hardware. Sonic featured large stages that scrolled effortlessly in all directions, as well as all manner of uneven terrain, curved hills, and a complex physics system that allowed players to rush through its levels with well-placed jumps and rolls. Lastly, there was the game's eponymous main character. Sega decided to give Sonic a rebellious personality in order to appeal to older gamers,[38] and super speed to help show off the Genesis' hardware capabilities. The game proved to be a massive hit, was a successful pack-in with new systems, and cemented the view that platform games would make or break a console.[citation needed]\nThe Sonic character was seen as a new model for mascots in the early 1990s, particularly for his perceived attitude, which characterized him as a rebel. This attitude would soon become the status quo, as companies attempted to duplicate Sonic's success with their own brightly colored anthropomorphisms.[39] Very frequently these were characterized by impatience, sarcasm, and frequent quips. These mascots, which included Gex, Mr. Nutz, Aero the Acro-Bat, Awesome Possum, and Bubsy, have mostly faded from relevance.\nA second generation of platform games for computers appeared alongside the new wave of consoles. Prince of Persia featured an unprecedented level of animation. Games like Shadow of the Beast and Turrican showed that platformers on the Atari ST and Amiga could be respectable in their own right, while many others were forgettable attempts to mimic the titles flooding the Sega Genesis and Super Nintendo markets.\nThe 1988 shareware game, Captain Comic was one of the first attempts at a Nintendo-style platformer for the IBM-compatible PC.[40] It inspired Commander Keen, released by id Software in 1990, which became the first PC platformer with smooth scrolling graphics.[41] Keen's success resulted in numerous console-styled platformers on the PC, including Duke Nukem, Duke Nukem II, Cosmo's Cosmic Adventure, and Dark Ages by Apogee Software, all of which helped fuel the shareware model of game distribution.\nDecline of 2D[edit]\nThe abundance of platformers for 16-bit consoles continued late into the generation, with successful games such as Vectorman (1995), Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest (1995), and Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island (1995), but the release of new hardware caused players' attention to shift away from traditional 2D genres.[4] The Sega Saturn, PlayStation, and Nintendo 64 nevertheless featured a number of successful 2D platform games. The 2D Rayman was a big success on 32-bit consoles. Mega Man 8 and Mega Man X4 helped revitalize interest in Capcom's Mega Man character. Castlevania: Symphony of the Night revitalized its series and established a new foundation for later Castlevania games. Oddworld and Heart of Darkness kept the subgenre born from Prince of Persia alive.\nThe difficulties of adapting platform gameplay to three dimensions led some developers to compromise by pairing the visual flash of 3D with traditional 2D side scrolling gameplay. These games are often referred to as 2.5D.[42] The first such game was the Sega Saturn launch title, Clockwork Knight (1994). The game featured levels and boss characters rendered in 3D, but retained 2D gameplay and used pre-rendered 2D sprites for regular characters, similar to Donkey Kong Country. Its sequel improved upon its design, featuring some 3D effects such as hopping between the foreground and background, and the camera panning and curving around corners. Meanwhile, Pandemonium and Klonoa brought the 2.5D style to the PlayStation. In a break from the past, the Nintendo 64 had the fewest side scrolling platformers with only four; Yoshi's Story, Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards, Goemon's Great Adventure, and Mischief Makers\u2014and most met with a tepid response from critics at the time.[43][44] Despite this, Yoshi's Story sold over a million copies in the US,[26] and Mischief Makers rode high on the charts in the months following its release.[45][46]\nThe third dimension[edit]\nThe term 3D platformer usually refers to games that feature gameplay in three dimensions and polygonal 3D graphics. Games that have 3D gameplay but 2D graphics are usually included under the umbrella of isometric platformers, while those that have 3D graphics but gameplay on a 2D plane are called 2.5D, as they are a blend of 2D and 3D.\nThe first attempts to bring platform games into 3D used 2D graphics and an isometric perspective. These games are nearly as old as the genre itself, one of the earliest examples being Sega's Congo Bongo in 1983. The first platformers to simulate a 3D perspective and moving camera emerged in the early-mid-1980s. An early example of this was Konami's platform game Antarctic Adventure,[47] where the player controls a penguin in a forward-scrolling third-person perspective while having to jump over pits and obstacles.[47][48][49] Originally released in 1983 for the MSX computer, it was subsequently ported to various platforms the following year,[49] including an arcade version,[47] NES,[49] and ColecoVision.[48]\n1986 saw the release of the sequel to forward-scrolling platformer Antarctic Adventure called Penguin Adventure, which was designed by Hideo Kojima.[50] It included more action game elements, a greater variety of levels, RPG elements such as upgrading equipment,[51] and multiple endings.[52]\nIn early 1987, Square released 3-D WorldRunner, designed by Hironobu Sakaguchi and Nasir Gebelli.[53][54] Using a forward-scrolling effect similar to Sega's 1985 third-person rail shooter Space Harrier.[53] 3-D WorldRunner was an early forward-scrolling pseudo-3D third-person platform-action game where players were free to move in any forward-scrolling direction and could leap over obstacles and chasms. It was notable for being one of the first stereoscopic 3-D games.[54] Square released its sequel, JJ, later that year.[55]\nAlpha Waves (1990) was an early 3D platform game.\nThe earliest example of a true 3D platformer is a French computer game called Alpha Waves, created by Christophe de Dinechin and published by Infogrames in 1990 for the Atari ST, Amiga, and PC.[56][57]\nBug! (1995) extended traditional platform gameplay in all directions.\nBug!, a Sega Saturn game that was released in 1995, offered a more conservative approach to true 3D platforming. It allowed players to move in all directions, but it did not allow movement along more than one axis at once; the player could move orthogonally but not diagonally. Its characters were pre-rendered sprites, much like the earlier Clockwork Knight. The game played very similarly to 2D platformers, but it was considered a true 3D title, and let players walk up walls and on ceilings. It was a moderate success, and spawned a sequel called Bug Too!.\nIn 1995, Delphine Software released a 3D sequel to their popular 2D platformer Flashback. Entitled Fade to Black, it was the first attempt to bring a popular 2D platform game series into 3D. While it retained the puzzle-oriented level design style and step-based control, and bore a strong resemblance to its predecessor, it did not meet the criteria of a platform game, and was billed as an action adventure.[58] It used true 3D characters and set pieces, but its environments were rendered using a rigid engine similar to the one used by Wolfenstein 3D, in that it could only render square, flat corridors, rather than suspended platforms that could be jumped between. Fade to Black would set the stage for other series, such as Metroid and Duke Nukem, that would gradually shift away from the traditional platform formula while retaining many of its gameplay conventions.\nThere was a great deal of pressure on Sony, Sega, and Nintendo to release mascot platformers before the 1996 holiday season. Sony chose to adopt an existing project by developers Naughty Dog, a small developer at the time, who had recently released the questionable Way of the Warrior. The move paid off; their game, Crash Bandicoot, beat Nintendo's new console to market in North America and was released in time for the holiday in Japan. Crash would remain Sony's unofficial mascot for the next several years before switching to multi-platform releases in the following console generation.\nSega did not fare as well. They had tasked their American studio, Sega Technical Institute, with bringing Sonic the Hedgehog into 3D. Their project, titled Sonic Xtreme, was to have featured a radically different approach for the series, with an exaggerated fisheye camera and multidirectional gameplay reminiscent of Bug!. Its development was rocky, due in part to conflicts with Sega Enterprises in Japan and a rushed schedule, and the game never made it to market.\nReshaping the genre[edit]\nIn 1991, Nintendo's Shigeru Miyamoto had conceived of a 3D Mario game, Super Mario FX, while working on Star Fox.[59][60] Miyamoto developed most of the concepts for the game during the era of the Super NES and considered using the Super FX chip to make it a SNES game, but decided to develop it for the Nintendo 64 due to the former system's technical limitations.[61][62] The game was renamed Super Mario 64 and went into development in 1994.[59]\nIn 1994, a small developer called Exact released a game for the X68000 computer called Geograph Seal. The game was a fully 3D polygonal first-person shooter hybrid with a pronounced platform jumping component. Players piloted a frog-like mech that could jump and then double-jump or triple-jump high into the air, as the camera panned down to help players line up their landings. In addition to shooting, jumping on enemies was a primary means of attack.[63] This was the first true 3D platform-action game with free-roaming environments, but it was never ported to another platform nor released outside Japan, so it remains relatively unknown in the West.[64]\nThe following year, Exact released their follow-up to Geograph Seal as an early title for Sony's new PlayStation console. Jumping Flash!, released in April 1995, is generally regarded as a direct continuation of the gameplay concepts in Geograph Seal,[65] and was likewise a mix of first-person shooting and platforming, with similar controls and camera-work, in free-roaming 3D environments. The frog-like mech was traded in for a more cartoony rabbit mech, called Robbit. Beyond this, the level design had an even greater focus on platform hopping, and it was released in Europe and North America as a launch title, helping it gain a much higher profile. The title was successful enough to receive two sequels, and is remembered as the first 3D platformer on a console.[64] Rob Fahey of Eurogamer highlighted that the game was arguably one of the most important ancestors of any 3D platform game at the time.[66] Jumping Flash holds the record of \"First platform videogame in true 3D\" according to Guinness World Records.[67] Another early 3D platformer was Floating Runner, developed by Japanese company Xing and released for the PlayStation in early 1996, predating the release of Super Mario 64. Floating Runner used D-pad controls and a behind-the-character camera perspective.[68]\nSuper Mario 64 (1996) replaced the linear obstacle courses of traditional platform games with vast worlds.\nNintendo released Super Mario 64 in 1996. Before then, there was no established paradigm for bringing platform games into 3D. Mario 64 set a new standard, and it was imitated by many subsequent 3D platformers. Its gameplay allowed players to explore open 3D environments with greater freedom than any previous attempt at a 3D platform game. To aid this, Nintendo added an analog control stick to its Nintendo 64 controller, something which had not been included in a standard console controller since the Vectrex, and which has since become standard on other controllers. This allowed for the finer precision needed for a free perspective. Players no longer followed a linear path to the ends of levels, either, with most levels providing objective-based goals. There were a handful of boss levels that offered more traditional platforming.\nSuper Mario 64 brought a change in the goals of some platformers. In most 2D platformers, the player only had to reach a single goal to complete a level, but in Mario 64 each level contained a mission based structure that rewarded items needed to unlock new areas. Many 3D platformers followed this trend such as Banjo-Kazooie, Spyro the Dragon, and Donkey Kong 64 creating the \"collectathon\" genre. This allowed for more efficient use of large 3D areas and rewarded the player for thorough exploration of their environment, but also contained less jumping and involved more elements of action-adventure games.\nAs platform games settled into this new free-roaming model, it became necessary for developers to program a dynamic, intelligent camera. This was a non-issue with 2D platformers, which were able to maintain a fixed viewpoint. The addition of a free camera also made it more difficult for players to judge the exact height and distance of platforms, making jumping puzzles more difficult. Some of the more linear 3D platformers, like Tork: Prehistoric Punk and Wario World used scripted cameras that allowed for minimal player control. Others with more open environments, such as Super Mario 64 and Banjo Kazooie, needed intelligent cameras that follow the players movements.[69] These intelligent cameras were not perfect, and required the player to adjust the view at times when the view was obstructed, or simply not facing what the player needed to see.\nRPGs, first person shooters, and more complex action-adventure games were all capturing more market share. Even so, Tomb Raider became one of the best selling series on the PlayStation, along with Insomniac Games' Spyro and Naughty Dog's Crash Bandicoot, one of the few 3D titles to retain the linear level design of 2D games. Also, many of the Nintendo 64's best sellers were first and second-party platformers like Super Mario 64, Banjo-Kazooie, and Donkey Kong 64.[70]\nInto the 21st century[edit]\nBy the sixth generation era, platformers were no longer seen as hot system sellers. Sega finally produced a 3D Sonic game, Sonic Adventure, on its new Dreamcast console. It used a hub structure like Mario 64 but featured more linear, action-oriented levels with an emphasis on speed. Although the game was a hit, it was not enough to save the Dreamcast from an early discontinuation in 2001.[71]\nNintendo launched its GameCube console without a platform game. However, it released Super Mario Sunshine in 2002, the second 3D Mario game. While the title was well received at the time of its release, it has since received criticism regarding such factors as its short length, lack of location variety, and level design, which featured an abundance of open space, making for a much slower-paced game.[72][73]\nOther notable 3D platformers trickled out during this generation. Maximo was a spiritual heir to the Ghosts'n Goblins series. Billy Hatcher and the Giant Egg offered Yuji Naka's take on a Mario 64-influenced platformer, and Psychonauts became a critical darling based on its imaginative levels and colorful characters. Rayman's popularity continued, though the franchise's third game was not as well received as the first two.[74][75] Naughty Dog's deal with Universal was up, and they moved on from Crash Bandicoot to Jak and Daxter, a series that moved further away from traditional platforming with each sequel.[citation needed] A hybrid platformer/shooter game from Insomniac Games called Ratchet & Clank further pushed the genre away from such gameplay, as did Universal Interactive Studios' rebooted Spyro trilogy and Microsoft's attempt to create a mascot for the Xbox in Blinx: The Time Sweeper.\nPlatformers remained a vital genre, but they never recaptured the popularity they once held. In 1998, platform games had a 15% share of the market, and even higher during their heyday, but only four years later that figure had dropped to 2%.[4] Even the much acclaimed Psychonauts experienced modest sales at first, leading publisher Majesco Entertainment to withdraw from high budget console games,[76] even though its sales in Europe were respectable,[77] and franchises like Tomb Raider began to sag. Other forms of third-person action games have cut into the sales of platformers, while genres such as RPGs and first-person shooters have continued to grow in popularity. A broader and more diverse video game market has developed, and no single genre has managed to achieve the same kind of dominance that platform games did during the 8, 16, and 32/64-bit console eras.\nTrine (2009) mixed traditional platform elements with more modern physics puzzles.\nDespite a much smaller presence in the overall gaming market, some platform games continue to be successful into the seventh generation of consoles. 2007 saw the release of Super Mario Galaxy and Ratchet & Clank Future: Tools of Destruction to positive critical and fan reaction.[78][79][80] Super Mario Galaxy was awarded the Best Game of 2007 on high-profile gaming websites including GameSpot, IGN, and GameTrailers, and was the most critically acclaimed game of all time according to GameRankings. In 2008, LittleBigPlanet paired traditional 2D platform game mechanics with physics simulation and user created content, earning strong sales and critical reaction. Electronic Arts released Mirror's Edge, which coupled platform gameplay with a first-person camera, but avoided marketing the game as a platformer because of the association the label had developed with games geared toward younger audiences.[citation needed] Sonic Unleashed featured stages containing both 2D and 3D styles of platform gameplay; this formula was also used in Sonic Colors and Sonic Generations. Two Crash Bandicoot platform games were also released 2007 and 2008.\nFreedom Planet (2014) is a more traditional, retro-style platformer: it draws heavy influence from early Sonic the Hedgehog games and features pixelated, sprite-based graphics.\nNintendo has revived the genre in recent years, releasing numerous platform games to high sales. New Super Mario Bros. was released in 2006 and has sold 18.45 million copies worldwide; it is the best-selling game for the Nintendo DS, and the fourth best-selling non-bundled video game of all time.[81] Super Mario Galaxy has sold over eight million units,[81] while Super Paper Mario, Super Mario 64 DS, Sonic Rush, Yoshi's Island DS, Kirby Super Star Ultra, and Kirby: Squeak Squad also have strong sales, and keep the genre active.\nAfter the success of New Super Mario Bros., consumers and publishers have shown renewed interest in 2D platformers, which can be attributed both to handheld consoles such as the Nintendo DS and PlayStation Portable, and low-risk downloadable services offered by WiiWare, Xbox Live Arcade, PlayStation Network, and Steam. These range from classic revivals such as Bionic Commando: Rearmed, Contra ReBirth, and Sonic the Hedgehog 4, to original titles like Splosion Man and Henry Hatsworth in the Puzzling Adventure. Wario Land: The Shake Dimension, released in 2008, was a platformer that featured completely two-dimensional graphics and a rich visual style. Subsequent games such as Braid, A Boy and His Blob, and The Behemoth's BattleBlock Theater also use completely 2D graphics. New Super Mario Bros. Wii is particularly notable, as unlike the majority of 2D platformers in the 21st century, it was a direct release for a non-portable console, and not restricted on a content delivery network. The success of New Super Mario Bros. Wii led to Nintendo releasing similar 2D platformer games for their classic franchises the following year: Donkey Kong Country Returns and Kirby's Return to Dream Land.\nIn 2009, independent developer Frozenbyte released Trine, a 2.5D platform game that mixed traditional elements with more modern physics puzzles. The game proved to be a commercial success, eventually selling more than 1.1 million copies. It spawned a sequel, Trine 2, which was released in 2011.[82] The 2D platformer Rayman Origins, was also released in 2011 as a retail title on several platforms. In 2012, Nintendo released two more 2D platform games: New Super Mario Bros. 2 for the 3DS and New Super Mario Bros. U for the Wii U. Nintendo has also released 3D platform games with gameplay elements of 2D platform games, namely Super Mario 3D Land for the 3DS in 2011 and Super Mario 3D World for the Wii U in 2013, the latter of which also included cooperative multiplayer gameplay. Each has achieved critical and commercial success.\n2017 saw the release of a number of 3D platformers which caused media speculation of a renewal of the genre.[citation needed] These games included Yooka-Laylee and A Hat in Time, both of which were crowdfunded on the website Kickstarter. The release of Super Mario Odyssey on the Nintendo Switch, which was an updated return to the open Ended gameplay style popularized by Super Mario 64, saw some of the most critical acclaim in the franchise's history. The Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy compilation on the PlayStation 4 sold over two million copies worldwide, and some critics noted the increased difficulty from the original PlayStation games.\nThere are many games that are platformers that do not adhere to any of the subgenres below, but the following are some of the more recognizable archetypes for different platform styles. There are many more vaguely defined subgenres that are not mentioned here because they are not as easily defined.\nPuzzle-platform game[edit]\nSee also: Puzzle video game\nFez is a 2012 Puzzle-platformer with puzzles based around a screen rotation mechanic.\nPuzzle platformers are characterized by their use of a platform game structure to drive a game whose challenge is derived primarily from puzzles. They normally feature a gimmick which is used throughout the entire game and as the level design becomes more complicated players are tasked with using that gimmick in different ways.[83]\nEnix's 1983 release Door Door and Sega's 1985 release Doki Doki Penguin Land (for the SG-1000) are perhaps the first examples, though the genre is diverse, and classifications can vary. Doki Doki Penguin Land allowed players to run and jump in typical platform fashion, but they could also destroy blocks, and were tasked with guiding an egg to the bottom of the level without letting it break.\nThe Lost Vikings (1992) was one of the more popular titles in this genre, as well. It featured three characters players could switch between, each with different abilities. Players had to use all three characters to reach the level goals.\nThis subgenre has a strong presence on handheld platforms. Wario Land 2 moved the Wario series into the puzzle-platformer genre by eliminating the element of death and adding temporary injuries, such as being squashed or lit on fire, and specialized powers. Wario Land 3 continued this tradition, while Wario Land 4 was more of a mix of puzzle and traditional platform elements. The Game Boy update of Donkey Kong was also a successful portable puzzle-platformer, and saw a sequel on Game Boy Advance called Mario vs Donkey Kong. Klonoa: Empire of Dreams, the first handheld title in its series, was also a puzzle-platformer.\nIn more recent years, the genre has experienced some revival, especially in independent game development. Braid uses time manipulation for its puzzles, and And Yet It Moves uses frame of reference rotation. In contrast to these side-scrollers, Narbacular Drop and its successor, Portal are first-person camera games that use portals to solve puzzles in 3D. Since the release of Portal, there have been more puzzle platformers that use a first-person camera, including Purity and Tag: The Power of Paint.\nRun-and-gun platform game[edit]\nBroforce is a run-and-gun platform game that spoofs on several action film heroes\nThe run and gun platformer genre was popularized by Konami's classic Contra. Gunstar Heroes and Metal Slug are also among the most popular examples of this style. Side-scrolling run and gun games are an attempt to marry platform games with shoot 'em ups, characterized by a minimal focus on precise platform jumping and a major emphasis on multi-directional shooting. These games are sometimes called platform shooters. This genre has strong arcade roots, and as such, these games are generally known for being very difficult, and having very linear, one-way game progression.\nThere are games which feature a heavy degree of shooting but do not fall into this subgenre. Mega Man, Metroid, Ghosts 'n Goblins, Vectorman, Jazz Jackrabbit, Earthworm Jim and Turrican are all platformers with a heavy focus on action and shooting, but unlike Contra or Metal Slug, platform jumping elements, as well as exploration and back-tracking, still figure prominently. Run and guns are generally very pure, and while they may have vehicular sequences or other changes in style, they stay focused on shooting throughout.\nCinematic platform game[edit]\nAnother World, like other cinematic platformers, features a realistically proportioned character and rotoscoped animation.\nCinematic platformers are a small but distinct subgenre of platform games, usually distinguished by their relative realism compared to traditional platformers. These games focus on fluid, lifelike movements, without the unnatural physics found in nearly all other platform games.[84] To achieve this realism, many cinematic platformers, beginning with Prince of Persia, have employed rotoscoping techniques to animate their characters based on video footage of live actors performing the same stunts.[85] Jumping abilities are typically roughly within the confines of an athletic human's capacity. To expand vertical exploration, many cinematic platformers feature the ability to grab onto ledges, or make extensive use of elevator platforms.[84] Other distinguishing characteristics include step-based control, in which an action is performed after the character completes his current animation, rather than the instant the button is pressed, and multi-screen stages that do not scroll.[citation needed]\nAs these games tend to feature vulnerable characters who may die as the result of a single enemy attack or by falling a relatively short distance, they almost never have limited lives or continues. Challenge is derived from trial and error problem solving, forcing the player to find the right way to overcome a particular obstacle.[86]\nPrince of Persia was the first cinematic platformer and perhaps the most influential.[87] Impossible Mission pioneered many of the defining elements of cinematic platformers and is an important precursor to this genre.[88] Other games in the genre include Flashback (and its 2013 remake), Another World, Heart of Darkness, the first two Oddworld games, Blackthorne, Bermuda Syndrome, Generations Lost, Heart of the Alien, Weird Dreams, Limbo, Inside, onEscapee, Deadlight, and Rain World.\nComical action game/Single Screen Platformer[edit]\nThis genre lacks a commonly agreed upon name in the West, but games in the genre are most commonly called \"comical action games\" (CAGs) in Japan.[89][90] The original arcade Mario Bros. is generally recognized as the originator of this genre, though Bubble Bobble is also highly influential. These games are characterized by single screen, non-scrolling levels and often contain cooperative two-player action. A level is cleared when all enemies on the screen have been defeated, and vanquished foes usually drop score bonuses in the form of fruit or other items. CAGs are almost exclusively developed in Japan and are either arcade games, or sequels to arcade games, though they are also a common genre among amateur doujinshi games. Other examples include Don Doko Don, Snow Bros and Nightmare in the Dark.\nIsometric platform game[edit]\nSee also: Isometric graphics in video games\nKnight Lore, an example of three-dimensional space represented on low-end hardware\nArguably a subgenre of both 3D and 2D platformers, isometric platformers present a three-dimensional environment using two-dimensional graphics in isometric projection. Although not the first isometric games, the earliest examples of isometric platform games are the arcade game Congo Bongo and Ant Attack for the Sinclair ZX Spectrum, both released in 1983.\nKnight Lore, an isometric sequel to Sabre Wulf, helped to establish the conventions of early isometric platformers. This formula would be repeated in later games like Head Over Heels, and Monster Max. These games were generally heavily focused on exploring indoor environments, usually a series of small rooms connected by doors, and have distinct adventure and puzzle elements. Japanese developers blended this gameplay style with that of Japanese action-adventure games like The Legend of Zelda to create games like Land Stalker and Light Crusader. While these games are more generally classified as action adventures, they are also isometric platformers and an evolution of earlier conventions in the genre. This influence would later travel to Europe with Adeline Software's sprawling epic Little Big Adventure, which blended RPG, adventure, and isometric platforming elements.\nBefore consoles were able to display true polygonal 3D graphics, the \u00be isometric perspective was used to move some popular 2D platformers into three-dimensional gameplay. Spot Goes To Hollywood was a sequel to the popular Cool Spot, and Sonic 3D Blast was Sonic's outing into the isometric subgenre.\nPlatform-adventure game[edit]\nSee also: Metroidvania\nMany games fuse platform game fundamentals with elements of action-adventure games, such as The Legend of Zelda, or with elements of RPGs. Typically these elements include the ability to explore an area freely, with access to new areas granted by either gaining new abilities or using inventory items. Many 2D games in the Metroid and Castlevania franchises are among the most popular games of this sort, and so games that take this type of approach are often labeled as \"Metroidvania\" games.[91] Castlevania: Symphony of the Night popularized this approach in the Castlevania series.[92] Other examples of such games include Wonder Boy III: The Dragon's Trap, Tails Adventure, Cave Story, Mega Man ZX, Shadow Complex and DuckTales: Remastered.[93][94][95][96][97]\nEarly examples of free-roaming, side-scrolling, 2D platform-adventures in the vein of \"Metroidvania\" include Nintendo's Metroid in 1986 and Konami's Castlevania games: Vampire Killer in 1986[98][99] and Simon's Quest in 1987,[100][101] The Goonies II in 1987 again by Konami,[102] as well as Enix's sci-fi Sharp X1 computer game Brain Breaker in 1985,[28][103] Pony Canyon's Super Pitfall in 1986,[29] System Sacom's Euphory in 1987,[28] Bothtec's The Scheme in 1988,[28] and several Dragon Slayer action RPGs by Nihon Falcom such as the 1985 release Xanadu[104][105] and 1987 releases Faxanadu[104] and Legacy of the Wizard.[106]\nEndless running game[edit]\n\"Endless running\" or \"infinite running\" games are platform games in which the player character is continuously moving forward through a usually procedurally generated, theoretically endless game world. Game controls are limited to making the character jump, attack, or perform special actions. The object of these games is to get as far as possible before the character dies. Endless running games have found particular success on mobile platforms. They are well-suited to the small set of controls these games require, often limited to a single screen tap for jumping. Games with similar mechanics with automatic forward movement, but where levels have been pre-designed, or procedurally generated to have a set finish line, are often called \"auto-runners\" to distinguish them from endless runners.\nGame designer Scott Rogers named side-scrolling shooters like Scramble (1981) and Moon Patrol (1982) and chase-style game play in platform games like Disney's Aladdin (1994 8-bit version) and Crash Bandicoot (1996) as forerunners of the genre.[107] B.C.'s Quest for Tires (1983) is considered to be the first game with elements of the endless runner, but at the time, the format never took off.[108]\nIn February 2003, Gamevil published Nom for mobile phones in Korea. The game's designer Sin Bong-gu, stated that he wanted to create a game that was only possible on mobile phones, therefore he made the player character walk up walls and ceilings, requiring players to turn around their mobile phones while playing. To compensate for this complication, he limited the game's controls to a single button and let the character run automatically and indefinitely, \"like the people in modern society, who must always look forward and keep running\".[109]\nWhile the concept thus was long known in Korea, journalists credit Canabalt (2009) as \"the title that single-handedly invented the smartphone-friendly single-button running genre\" and spawned a wave of clones.[110][108] Fotonica (2011), a one-button endless runner viewed from the first person, that was described as a \"hybrid of Canabalt's running, Mirror's Edge's perspective (and hands) and Rez's visual style\".[111] Temple Run (2011) and its successor Temple Run 2 have become especially popular endless running games. The latter became the world's fastest-spreading mobile game in January 2013, with 50 million installations within thirteen days.[112]\nList of platform game series\n^ \"Gamespeak: A glossary of gaming terms\".

        "raw_content": "United Nations Department for Safety and Security\nThe Department of Safety and Security (UNDSS) is a department of the United Nations providing professional safety and security services to enable the United Nations to deliver its programmes globally. UNDSS reports directly to the Secretary-General. UNDSS manages a network of security advisers, analysts, officers and coordinators in more than 100 countries in support of around 180,000 United Nations personnel, 400,000 dependents and 4,500 United Nations premises worldwide. The Department is led by Under-Secretary-General Peter Drennan, from Australia.\nMission: UNDSS provides professional safety & security services to enable the United Nations to deliver its programmes globally.\nVision: UNDSS protects the people who work for a better world.\nLegal Documents: UN Security is underpinned by five main legal documents, outlining the responsibilities of all stakeholders:\nUnited Nations Charter \u2013 articles 104 and 105\nConventions on Privileges and Immunities of the United Nations (1946 and 1947)\nConvention on Safety and Security of United Nations Personnel and Associated Personnel (1994) \u2013 Optional Protocol (2005)\nAnnual Resolutions of the General Assembly on Safety and Security of UN personnel and associated personnel\nUNSMS Security Policy Manual\nLeadership: UNDSS provides critical advice and rapid decision-making capacity on UNSMS (United Nations Security Management System) policy and operational issues to UNSMS members, senior United Nations management and personnel.\nSecurity Management: The Department provides services with security risk management capabilities and strategies to address multi-dimensional security challenges. The Security Risk Management (SRM) identifies, analyzes and manages safety and security risks to United Nations personnel, assets and operations.\nPolicy: UNDSS supports decision-making process with a solid policy framework with security policies covering all aspects of security management and ensuring cohesion within the UNSMS.\nWorkforce: UNDSS develops and maintains a professional and effective safety and security workforce.\nSpecialized Services: UNDSS delivers specialized safety and security services by offering the necessary expertise to stay ahead of the fast paced changes in the security environment.\nFor the first half-century of its existence, the United Nations felt protected by its flag and the reality that it was a neutral, benevolent actor in world events. If United Nations personnel were directly targeted, it was generally viewed as an isolated event. In the early 1990s, the security environment for the United Nations changed and became more threatening. There was a rise in the number of deaths and injuries to personnel as a result of malicious acts. The mandate of the United Nations also evolved, resulting in a larger number of United Nations personnel, notably from the humanitarian agencies, being deployed on potentially hazardous missions. At the same time, peacekeeping missions were being established in areas at war or in situations of high risk. Increasingly, humanitarian personnel were being deployed alongside peacekeeping military units in integrated multidisciplinary missions.\nAn evolving security management system : The UN\u2019s security management system was designed for the operational requirements which existed in the UN\u2019s early days. By the 1990s, the system was no longer able to fulfill its responsibilities adequately, despite the best efforts and dedication of all those involved. To allow the United Nations to meet new demands in a changing environment, the General Assembly authorized an increase in the staff of the Office of the United Nations Security Coordinator (UNSECOORD), primarily in the field. In 2001, the General Assembly authorized the creation of a full-time United Nations Security Coordinator at the level of Assistant Secretary-General. By 2002, the number of professional security officer posts in the field numbered 100 Professional and 200 locally-recruited posts.\nThe United Nations Security Coordinator oversaw the activities of the UN field security management system and was a senior official appointed by the Secretary-General. The Office was responsible for all policy and procedural matters related to security; ensuring a coherent response by the United Nations to any emergency situation; coordinating, planning and implementing inter-agency security programmes and acting as the focal point for inter-agency cooperation concerning all security matters and, on behalf of the Secretary-General, taking all decisions related to the relocation/evacuation of personnel and their eligible dependents from very insecure areas. In addition to UNSECOORD, the Department of Peacekeeping Operations (DPKO) had in place its own separate security structure for civilian personnel in UN peacekeeping operations. Political missions of the Department of Political Affairs that were administratively backstopped by DPKO remained under the UN field security management system.\nEach of the major UN locations around the world had their own Security and Safety Services which operated independently from the UN security management system and from any central direction. The Security and Safety Service (SSS) was first established at UN Headquarters in 1948. For decades, SSS in New York and at seven other Secretariat headquarters locations around the world (Geneva, Vienna, Nairobi, Bangkok, Beirut, Addis Ababa and Santiago), operated independently of each other and had no common governance structure. Their role was to provide security and safety for headquarters personnel, premises and operations at those locations, as well to protect delegates and visitors to the premises and provide personal security details for senior United Nations officials and visiting dignitaries. Between 2002 and 2003, efforts were made by the United Nations Security Coordinator to professionalize the Organization\u2019s security for its personnel through improved recruitment and training, and to institutionalize security coordination among United Nations agencies, Funds, and Programmes through the establishment of an Inter-Agency Security Management Network (IASMN). However, security structures in PKOs and SPMs, as well as in SSS locationscontinued to function as separate entities to the structure in place for the field.\nIn early August 2003, independent security experts carried out an analysis of the UN security management system and concluded that the development and implementation of an overall security governance and accountability framework, including Headquarters, humanitarian and development personnel and civilian personnel in peacekeeping missions would lead to a strengthened and unified security management system.\nThe Ahtisaari panel : Despite the growing security concerns and the efforts to address them the UN Headquarters at the Canal Hotel in Baghdad was attacked on 19 August 2003, which came as a devastating shock. The attack, carried out by a suicide bomber driving a truck filled with explosives, killed 22 United Nations personnel and visitors, including SRSGT De Mello,and injured more than 150 people. The attack was the first significant and targeted attack against the United Nations calling to attention the limited coordination and cohesion of security provisions for UN staff and permises globally. The attacks led to an urgent second review of the security system by the Independent Panel on the Safety and Security of United Nations Personnel, known as the Ahtisaari panel.\n\u201cThe United Nations could, in theory, be the target of attacks anywhere at any time, from Baghdad to Kabul, Nairobi, Jakarta, Geneva or New York. There are no indications that the perpetrators of the attacks in Baghdad would refrain from attacking other UN targets worldwide.\u201d \u2013 Ahtisaari Panel report.\nThe Ahtisaari panel called for a new, drastically revised security strategy for the United Nations. The panel recommended that the core elements of the new strategy include clear articulation of the responsibilities of the United Nations to ensure the security of its personnel; the establishment of professional assessment tools for the analysis of threat and risks for United Nations operations worldwide; a robust security management system with adequate disciplinary measures to counter non-compliance; accountability at all managerial levels for the implementation of security regulations; and significant increases in resources to develop and maintain the necessary security infrastructure.\nUNDSS is born A concerted effort was subsequently made across the United Nations system to overhaul and improve staff security arrangements. In 2004, a radical proposal for strengthening and unifying the United Nations security management system was presented to the 59th session of the General Assembly in Report A/59/365 of 11 October 2004. This resulted in the adoption of General Assembly Resolution (A/RES/59/276 December 2004) that created the Department of Safety and Security which merged the security management component of the Office of the United Nations Security Coordinator (UNSECOORD) and the Security and Safety Services (SSS) at Headquarters and at Offices away from Headquarters, (including the regional commissions),. Furthermore, the Resolution mandated that the new Department be headed by a senior UN official at the rank of Under-Secretary-General for a non-renewable term of five years. The General Assembly also adopted measures to reinforce security operations in all locations and decided to establish a unified capacity for policy, standards, coordination, communications, compliance and threat and risk assessment. The United Nations Department of Safety and Security (UNDSS) was formally established on 1 January 2005.\nReport of the Secretary-General on the Safety and Security of Humanitarian Personnel and Protection of United Nations Personnel United Nations Charter \u2013 articles 104 and 105\nUnited Nations Official site\nRetrieved from \"https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=United_Nations_Department_for_Safety_and_Security&oldid=880300925\"\nUnited Nations stubs",

        "raw_content": "This article is about a city in Michigan. For other uses, see Whitehall (disambiguation).\nLocation of Whitehall, Michigan\nDebi Hillebrand\nScott Huebler\nwww.cityofwhitehall.org\nWhitehall is a city in Muskegon County in the U.S. state of Michigan. The population was 2,706 at the 2010 census. The city is located in the southwest corner of Whitehall Township. Montague is its neighbor.\nIt is located on White Lake (actually the mouth of the White River). Whitehall's recorded history began circa 1859 when Charles Mears, a noted lumber baron to the area, platted the village along with Giles B. Slocum, naming it Mears. The population continued to grow due to its strategic location for floating and distributing lumber.\nIn 1862, it was renamed Whitehall and incorporated as the Village of Whitehall in 1867. It later was incorporated as a city in 1942.\n4 Culture and recreation\n4.1 Music and fine arts\nThe town is located about 5 miles (8.0 km) from Lake Michigan. White Lake is now connected to Lake Michigan by a dredged canal.\nWhite River runs between the cities of Whitehall and Montague. The White River is nearly twenty-four miles in length and passes through White Lake before emptying into Lake Michigan. In 1675, Father Pere Marquette stopped in the area and learned that the Native Americans called the stream \u201cWabish-Sippe,\u201d meaning the river with white clay in the water, which gave rise to the names of White River and White Lake.\nBus. US 31 is a business loop through the downtowns of both Whitehall and Montague.\nAs of the census[4] of 2000, there were 2,884 people, 1,165 households, and 739 families residing in the city. The population density was 960.0 per square mile (371.2/km\u00b2). There were 1,262 housing units at an average density of 420.1 per square mile (162.4/km\u00b2). The racial makeup of the city was 96.60% White, 0.76% African American, 1.14% Native American, 0.31% Asian, 0.69% from other races, and 0.49% from two or more races. Hispanic or Latino of any race were 2.08% of the population.\nCulture and recreation[edit]\nMusic and fine arts[edit]\nWhitehall is home to the Howmet Playhouse. The 400-seat theater was built in 1916 to be a performance venue for the White Lake area. In 1973 the theater was in danger of demolition and was acquired and renovated by nearby Blue Lake Fine Arts Camp with the help of a local fund drive and the participation of Whitehall's largest employer, Howmet Castings at the time. Blue Lake had been putting out productions until they built their own on-site facility in 2006. The theater was then transferred to the city, which puts on a season of theater running through the summer.[8] Community fund raising efforts to improve the playhouse and keep it running are ongoing.\nThe Arts Council of White Lake has a 30-year history of providing high quality artistic support to the White Lake Community. They provide numerous opportunities for members of the community and surrounding areas to view, listen to, create, and learn from the arts. ACWL programs, scholarships and grants reach thousands of people each year, and help build a spirited, giving, and global White Lake culture. ACWL also sponsors a local Summer Concert Series and Artisan Market the first Saturday of every month that the Farmer's Market is open.\nWhitehall is also home to 3 Frank Lloyd Wright cottages and a house, built from 1897-1905.\nWhite River Lighthouse was built in 1875 by Captain William Robinson and served the White Lake area until 1960, when it was deactivated by the U.S. Coast Guard. The brick lighthouse is now a museum and features exhibits about the area's history related to the shipping and logging industries.\nFourth of July Parade from downtown Whitehall to downtown Montague.\nWhite Lake Area Arts & Crafts Festival in Goodrich Park features more than 150 talented and creative artists, live entertainment, jump houses, and food-on Father's Day weekend\nCruz'in: A parade and display of over 400 classic cars.

Google\u2019s data centres are taking the lead.\nGoogle is using AI to run its data center cooling systems\nGoogle\u2019s data centers hold thousands of servers and they power everything from Google Search to Gmail to YouTube. But those data centers need to be kept cool in order for those servers to run reliably. A couple of years ago, Google began applying AI to its data center cooling systems and it offered system controllers recommendations about how to boost energy efficiency while maintaining optimal temperatures. Now, Google says its AI is running the show.\nWhen the company developed its AI-powered recommendation system, it said the thinking behind the move was simple. \u201cEven minor improvements would provide significant energy savings and reduce CO2 emissions to help combat climate change,\u201d DeepMind said in a blog post today. After implementing the system, the company\u2019s data center operators reported that it was uncovering some improved techniques, but vetting and manually implementing they system\u2019s recommendations was requiring a fair amount of time and effort. That\u2019s when Google began to explore an automated system.\nNow, the AI system is implementing actions on its own, though human operators are always there to supervise and take over if need be. Every five minutes, the system takes a snapshot of the cooling system and that information is fed into DeepMind\u2019s neural networks. The AI then assesses which actions should be taken to maintain temperature but minimize energy consumption, and after those actions are run through a number of safety checks, they\u2019re implemented.\nGoogle says that the system has been in place for a few months and it\u2019s producing energy savings of around 30 percent. It\u2019s also continuing to find new techniques to satisfy energy saving goals. The company adds that data centers might not be the only places that could benefit from such a system. \u201cIn the long term, we think there\u2019s potential to apply this technology in other industrial settings, and help tackle climate change on an even grander scale,\u201d it said.\n\u00ab How farmers can benefit from deploying renewable energy technologies\nImportant upcoming events \u00bb",

EnvisionTEC\u2019s International headquarters in Gladbeck, Germany, houses the company\u2019s sales, service and R&D operations, but it also serves as a production facility.\n\u201cWhen EnvisionTEC started, we were in three rooms in Marl. Then we came to Gladbeck and we doubled the facility, and now we are tripling,\u201d Sobhi said. \u201cWe should start breaking ground in early 2017.\u201d\nKnown as a tough, driving force throughout the company, Sobhi takes pride in having built the company\u2019s global network of dealers and resellers throughout Europe, Asia and Latin America.\nHe credits an engineering mindset\u2014organized and methodical\u2014as well as his experience in global finance, for helping to assemble a winning international team. Before coming to EnvisionTEC, Sobhi, who is fluent in Arabic, French and English, was president of Raja Holdings where he restore profitability through restructuring activities and grew the business through new investment opportunities.\nBusiness has changed since Sobhi came on board with EnvisionTEC a decade ago. Back then, customers weren\u2019t familiar with 3D printing or what it could do for them.\n\u201cYou needed to educate the market\u2014that this machine would make their lives easier and optimize their operations, cut down costs and increase profitability. We had to show them this machine will make money for you,\u201d he said.\nToday, customers know more about 3D printing, but they still need to be educated about the benefits of EnvisionTEC versus the competition.\n\u201cWe build something that is industrial grade, for real manufacturers,\u201d Sobhi said. \u201cWe use only the high end components, we only source the best\u2014in optics, electronics \u2026\u201d\nThe other benefit of doing business with EnvisionTEC is the great engineering expertise in Germany and Detroit, where the team understands they are developing a total solution for serious manufacturing customers moving to 3D printing who have particular performance, functionality and material needs.\n\u201cWe provide a solution, not just a printer,\u201d Sobhi explained. \u201cWe are near our customers so we can work with them.\u201d\nAnd while Sobhi has been a driving force in EnvisionTEC\u2019s growth, he credits the company\u2019s founder, Al Siblani, whom he said simply delivers better 3D printing machines to the market.\n\u201cThe main driver of this company is Al Siblani\u2014Al and a good team after that,\u201d Sobhi said. \u201cHe is a man with a vision, and he wears two hats. He has an eye on the commercial side and another on the technical side; he is technical and commercial.\u201d",

A literature-derived policy framework, the social determinants of health, and Ottawa Charter (WHO, 1986) were used in a mixed-method research design of interview, survey, and document analysis. Fifteen health inspectors were interviewed, 51 surveyed and four key policy documents were analyzed. Content and statistical analysis revealed that health inspectors practiced health promotion opportunistically and unintentionally, creating an incremental, inconsistent approach when enforcement of public health policy (health protection) did not resolve individual client needs. The evidence supported the assertion that without clear policy and leadership health promotion practice was inconsistent and uncoordinated. Research following on from the study\u2019s findings should be focused on identified facilitators and barriers of public health policy implementation building organizational capacity for health promotion practice.

        "raw_content": "Allure of the Seas to generate 158,000 pax for Barcelona in 2015\nThe Port of Barcelona has announced that it expects 158,000 passengers in 2015 for the Allure of the Seas and that they will be spending 17.5 million euros in the city. The Allure will sail 25 times from Barcelona during the 2015 season.\n\u201cThe choice of Barcelona as a base for the Allure of the Seas for the entire 2015 season is a challenge for the large scale of operations that the ship will be making, but it also helps to consolidate Barcelona as the leader in the European and Mediterranean cruise sector,\u201d said Sixte Cambra, president of Barcelona Port Authority, in a prepared statement.\nAt a joint press conference, Belen Wanguemert, CEO of Royal Caribbean in Spain and France, highlighted the boost that the arrival of a vessel of this type represents for tourism and for business directly linked to the cruise activity, involving a full range of port services and supplies.\nThis economic impact estimate is based on the latest study from Barcelona Tourist Board, which has calculated that cruise passengers on turnarounds spend an average of 113 EUR, but this is not the only impact the Allure will cause on the local economy. Wealth creation also includes business generated by ship supplies (food, fuel, water and all kinds of consumer products); services and port fees; the benefit in tourist terms of bringing passengers to Barcelona from all over the world; and the positive impact it has on the international image of the capital of Catalonia.\nCambra pointed out that Barcelona is the only Mediterranean port with appropriate facilities to handle large-scale operations for vessels such as the Allure, with more than 12,000 passengers embarking and disembarking daily (6,300 in each operation). To ensure that these run smoothly and efficiently, Terminals B and C, managed by Creuers del Port de Barcelona (Port of Barcelona Cruises) and located on Adossat wharf, will provide service to the Royal Caribbean vessel simultaneously.\nSource Cruise Industry News, http://www.cruiseindustrynews.com/cruise-news/10675-allure-of-the-seas-to-generate-158000-pax-for-barcelona-in-2015.html\n#158000 pax\n#Barcelona in 2015",

        "title": "Samuel 2 | Eternity Matters",
        "raw_content": "Category Archives: Samuel 2\nThe last words of David have some interesting points about faith and politics. God said that ruling with righteousness and in the fear of God brings light and blessings to people.\n\u201cThe oracle of David son of Jesse, the oracle of the man exalted by the Most High, the man anointed by the God of Jacob, Israel\u2019s singer of songs:\n2 \u201cThe Spirit of the Lord spoke through me; his word was on my tongue.\n3 The God of Israel spoke, the Rock of Israel said to me: \u2018When one rules over men in righteousness, when he rules in the fear of God,\n4 he is like the light of morning at sunrise on a cloudless morning, like the brightness after rain that brings the grass from the earth.\u2019\n5 \u201cIs not my house right with God? Has he not made with me an everlasting covenant, arranged and secured in every part? Will he not bring to fruition my salvation and grant me my every desire?\n6 But evil men are all to be cast aside like thorns, which are not gathered with the hand.\n7 Whoever touches thorns uses a tool of iron or the shaft of a spear; they are burned up where they lie.\u201d\n8 These are the names of David\u2019s mighty men:\nJosheb-Basshebeth, a Tahkemonite, was chief of the Three; he raised his spear against eight hundred men, whom he killed in one encounter.\n9 Next to him was Eleazar son of Dodai the Ahohite. As one of the three mighty men, he was with David when they taunted the Philistines gathered at Pas Dammim for battle. Then the men of Israel retreated, 10 but he stood his ground and struck down the Philistines till his hand grew tired and froze to the sword. The Lord brought about a great victory that day. The troops returned to Eleazar, but only to strip the dead.\n13 During harvest time, three of the thirty chief men came down to David at the cave of Adullam, while a band of Philistines was encamped in the Valley of Rephaim. 14 At that time David was in the stronghold, and the Philistine garrison was at Bethlehem. 15 David longed for water and said, \u201cOh, that someone would get me a drink of water from the well near the gate of Bethlehem!\u201d 16 So the three mighty men broke through the Philistine lines, drew water from the well near the gate of Bethlehem and carried it back to David. But he refused to drink it; instead, he poured it out before the Lord. 17 \u201cFar be it from me, O Lord, to do this!\u201d he said. \u201cIs it not the blood of men who went at the risk of their lives?\u201d And David would not drink it.\nThat was a mysterious section. I don\u2019t have my study Bible in front of me and can\u2019t recall why David would ask for the water, let his men risk their lives and then pour it out!\nSuch were the exploits of the three mighty men.\n18 Abishai the brother of Joab son of Zeruiah was chief of the Three. He raised his spear against three hundred men, whom he killed, and so he became as famous as the Three. 19 Was he not held in greater honor than the Three? He became their commander, even though he was not included among them.\n20 Benaiah son of Jehoiada was a valiant fighter from Kabzeel, who performed great exploits. He struck down two of Moab\u2019s best men. He also went down into a pit on a snowy day and killed a lion. 21 And he struck down a huge Egyptian. Although the Egyptian had a spear in his hand, Benaiah went against him with a club. He snatched the spear from the Egyptian\u2019s hand and killed him with his own spear. 22 Such were the exploits of Benaiah son of Jehoiada; he too was as famous as the three mighty men. 23 He was held in greater honor than any of the Thirty, but he was not included among the Three. And David put him in charge of his bodyguard.\n24 Among the Thirty were: Asahel the brother of Joab, Elhanan son of Dodo from Bethlehem, 25 Shammah the Harodite, Elika the Harodite, 26 Helez the Paltite, Ira son of Ikkesh from Tekoa, 27 Abiezer from Anathoth, Mebunnai the Hushathite, 28 Zalmon the Ahohite, Maharai the Netophathite, 29 Heled son of Baanah the Netophathite, Ithai son of Ribai from Gibeah in Benjamin, 30 Benaiah the Pirathonite,\nHiddai from the ravines of Gaash, 31 Abi-Albon the Arbathite, Azmaveth the Barhumite, 32 Eliahba the Shaalbonite, the sons of Jashen,\nJonathan 33 son of Shammah the Hararite, Ahiam son of Sharar the Hararite, 34 Eliphelet son of Ahasbai the Maacathite, Eliam son of Ahithophel the Gilonite, 35 Hezro the Carmelite, Paarai the Arbite, 36 Igal son of Nathan from Zobah, the son of Hagri, 37 Zelek the Ammonite,\nNaharai the Beerothite, the armor-bearer of Joab son of Zeruiah, 38 Ira the Ithrite, Gareb the Ithrite 39 and Uriah the Hittite.\nAll the details of David\u2019s motives for calling the cencus aren\u2019t listed, but it was obvious from the aftermath that it was a very prideful and serious sin.\n10 David was conscience-stricken after he had counted the fighting men, and he said to the Lord, \u201cI have sinned greatly in what I have done. Now, O Lord, I beg you, take away the guilt of your servant. I have done a very foolish thing.\u201d\n13 So Gad went to David and said to him, \u201cShall there come upon you three years of famine in your land? Or three months of fleeing from your enemies while they pursue you? Or three days of plague in your land? Now then, think it over and decide how I should answer the one who sent me.\u201d\n14 David said to Gad, \u201cI am in deep distress. Let us fall into the hands of the Lord, for his mercy is great; but do not let me fall into the hands of men.\u201d\nDavid chose wisely, trusting that the mercy of God would be greater than the mercy of men.\n15 So the Lord sent a plague on Israel from that morning until the end of the time designated, and seventy thousand of the people from Dan to Beersheba died. 16 When the angel stretched out his hand to destroy Jerusalem, the Lord was grieved because of the calamity and said to the angel who was afflicting the people, \u201cEnough! Withdraw your hand.\u201d The angel of the Lord was then at the threshing floor of Araunah the Jebusite.\n17 When David saw the angel who was striking down the people, he said to the Lord, \u201cI am the one who has sinned and done wrong. These are but sheep. What have they done? Let your hand fall upon me and my family.\u201d\n18 On that day Gad went to David and said to him, \u201cGo up and build an altar to the Lord on the threshing floor of Araunah the Jebusite.\u201d 19 So David went up, as the Lord had commanded through Gad. 20 When Araunah looked and saw the king and his men coming toward him, he went out and bowed down before the king with his face to the ground.\n22 Araunah said to David, \u201cLet my lord the king take whatever pleases him and offer it up. Here are oxen for the burnt offering, and here are threshing sledges and ox yokes for the wood. 23 O king, Araunah gives all this to the king.\u201d Araunah also said to him, \u201cMay the Lord your God accept you.\u201d\nI love verse 24. It is a challenge to give our best to God and the work of his kingdom. It is easy to give out of my excess, but more rewarding when I sacrifice my time and money.\nSo David bought the threshing floor and the oxen and paid fifty shekels of silver for them. 25 David built an altar to the Lord there and sacrificed burnt offerings and fellowship offerings. Then the Lord answered prayer in behalf of the land, and the plague on Israel was stopped.\n2 Samuel 21-22 (NIV)\nThe Gibeonites Avenged\n21 During the reign of David, there was a famine for three successive years; so David sought the face of the Lord. The Lord said, \u201cIt is on account of Saul and his blood-stained house; it is because he put the Gibeonites to death.\u201d\n2 The king summoned the Gibeonites and spoke to them. (Now the Gibeonites were not a part of Israel but were survivors of the Amorites; the Israelites had sworn to spare them, but Saul in his zeal for Israel and Judah had tried to annihilate them.) 3 David asked the Gibeonites, \u201cWhat shall I do for you? How shall I make amends so that you will bless the Lord\u2019s inheritance?\u201d\n4 The Gibeonites answered him, \u201cWe have no right to demand silver or gold from Saul or his family, nor do we have the right to put anyone in Israel to death.\u201d\n\u201cWhat do you want me to do for you?\u201d David asked.\n5 They answered the king, \u201cAs for the man who destroyed us and plotted against us so that we have been decimated and have no place anywhere in Israel, 6 let seven of his male descendants be given to us to be killed and exposed before the Lord at Gibeah of Saul\u2014the Lord\u2019s chosen one.\u201d\nSo the king said, \u201cI will give them to you.\u201d\n7 The king spared Mephibosheth son of Jonathan, the son of Saul, because of the oath before the Lord between David and Jonathan son of Saul. 8 But the king took Armoni and Mephibosheth, the two sons of Aiah\u2019s daughter Rizpah, whom she had borne to Saul, together with the five sons of Saul\u2019s daughter Merab, whom she had borne to Adriel son of Barzillai the Meholathite. 9 He handed them over to the Gibeonites, who killed and exposed them on a hill before the Lord. All seven of them fell together; they were put to death during the first days of the harvest, just as the barley harvest was beginning.\n10 Rizpah daughter of Aiah took sackcloth and spread it out for herself on a rock. From the beginning of the harvest till the rain poured down from the heavens on the bodies, she did not let the birds of the air touch them by day or the wild animals by night. 11 When David was told what Aiah\u2019s daughter Rizpah, Saul\u2019s concubine, had done, 12 he went and took the bones of Saul and his son Jonathan from the citizens of Jabesh Gilead. (They had taken them secretly from the public square at Beth Shan, where the Philistines had hung them after they struck Saul down on Gilboa.) 13 David brought the bones of Saul and his son Jonathan from there, and the bones of those who had been killed and exposed were gathered up.\n14 They buried the bones of Saul and his son Jonathan in the tomb of Saul\u2019s father Kish, at Zela in Benjamin, and did everything the king commanded. After that, God answered prayer in behalf of the land.\nI\u2019m going to just copy and paste a commentary from my Bible software on this unusual passage:\nAt some point in David\u2019s reign, probably toward the end, Israel was afflicted by a three-year drought. When he inquired of the Lord as to its cause, the Lord revealed that it came as punishment for Saul\u2019s violation of the covenant made with the Gibeonites back in the days of Joshua (Josh. 9:15-21). At that time Israel, under Joshua\u2019s leadership, had just destroyed Jericho and Ai and was about to attack the Amorite federation of the Canaanite hill country. The people of Gibeon, who were in the direct line of Joshua\u2019s conquest, pretended to be faraway aliens and so escaped annihilation. Moreover, they tricked Joshua into making a covenant with them whereby they would forever serve Israel in menial tasks but could never be harmed. Though the covenant was made deceitfully, its binding nature was recognized by both the Israelites and the Gibeonites.\nSaul, in an action not recorded in the biblical account, had slain some Gibeonites during his tenure (2 Sam. 21:1). When David learned that the famine had come on Israel as punishment for that covenant violation, he asked the Gibeonite leaders what he should do for them. They responded by denying any interest in silver or gold. Nor, they said, could they, as Israel\u2019s vassals, take vengeance into their own hands. Instead they asked that seven . . . male descendants of Saul be given over to them so that they could practice the age-old tradition of lex talionis-eye for eye, tooth for tooth, and life for life (Ex. 21:23-25).\nDavid recognized the propriety of their demand, but he also had to balance against it the pledge he had made to Jonathan that he would forever preserve his seed (1 Sam. 20:15-16)\nWalvoord, J. F., Zuck, R. B., & Dallas Theological Seminary. (1983-c1985). The Bible knowledge commentary : An exposition of the scriptures. Wheaton, IL: Victor Books.\nWars Against the Philistines\n15 Once again there was a battle between the Philistines and Israel. David went down with his men to fight against the Philistines, and he became exhausted. 16 And Ishbi-Benob, one of the descendants of Rapha, whose bronze spearhead weighed three hundred shekels and who was armed with a new sword, said he would kill David. 17 But Abishai son of Zeruiah came to David\u2019s rescue; he struck the Philistine down and killed him. Then David\u2019s men swore to him, saying, \u201cNever again will you go out with us to battle, so that the lamp of Israel will not be extinguished.\u201d\n18 In the course of time, there was another battle with the Philistines, at Gob. At that time Sibbecai the Hushathite killed Saph, one of the descendants of Rapha.\n19 In another battle with the Philistines at Gob, Elhanan son of Jaare-Oregim the Bethlehemite killed Goliathc the Gittite, who had a spear with a shaft like a weaver\u2019s rod.\n20 In still another battle, which took place at Gath, there was a huge man with six fingers on each hand and six toes on each foot\u2014twenty-four in all. He also was descended from Rapha. 21 When he taunted Israel, Jonathan son of Shimeah, David\u2019s brother, killed him.\n22 These four were descendants of Rapha in Gath, and they fell at the hands of David and his men.\nChapter 22 is very similar to Psalm 18, written as a thanksgiving hymn for victory. It is full of promises about God.\n\u201cThe Lord is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; 3 my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield and the horn of my salvation. He is my stronghold, my refuge and my savior\u2014 from violent men you save me.\n5 \u201cThe waves of death swirled about me; the torrents of destruction overwhelmed me.\n6 The cords of the grave coiled around me; the snares of death confronted me.\n7 In my distress I called to the Lord; I called out to my God. From his temple he heard my voice; my cry came to his ears.\n8 \u201cThe earth trembled and quaked, the foundations of the heavens shook; they trembled because he was angry.\n9 Smoke rose from his nostrils; consuming fire came from his mouth, burning coals blazed out of it.\n10 He parted the heavens and came down; dark clouds were under his feet.\n11 He mounted the cherubim and flew; he soared on the wings of the wind.\n12 He made darkness his canopy around him\u2014 the dark rain clouds of the sky.\n13 Out of the brightness of his presence bolts of lightning blazed forth.\n14 The Lord thundered from heaven; the voice of the Most High resounded.\n15 He shot arrows and scattered the enemies, bolts of lightning and routed them.\n16 The valleys of the sea were exposed and the foundations of the earth laid bare at the rebuke of the Lord, at the blast of breath from his nostrils.\n17 \u201cHe reached down from on high and took hold of me; he drew me out of deep waters.\n18 He rescued me from my powerful enemy, from my foes, who were too strong for me.\n19 They confronted me in the day of my disaster, but the Lord was my support.\n20 He brought me out into a spacious place; he rescued me because he delighted in me.\n21 \u201cThe Lord has dealt with me according to my righteousness; according to the cleanness of my hands he has rewarded me.\n22 For I have kept the ways of the Lord; I have not done evil by turning from my God.\n23 All his laws are before me; I have not turned away from his decrees.\n24 I have been blameless before him and have kept myself from sin.\n25 The Lord has rewarded me according to my righteousness, according to my cleanness in his sight.\n26 \u201cTo the faithful you show yourself faithful, to the blameless you show yourself blameless,\n27 to the pure you show yourself pure, but to the crooked you show yourself shrewd.\n28 You save the humble, but your eyes are on the haughty to bring them low.\n29 You are my lamp, O Lord; the Lord turns my darkness into light.\n30 With your help I can advance against a troop; with my God I can scale a wall.\n31 \u201cAs for God, his way is perfect; the word of the Lord is flawless. He is a shield for all who take refuge in him.\nYes, God is perfect \u2013 more perfect than we can imagine. And his Word is flawless!\n32 For who is God besides the Lord? And who is the Rock except our God?\nThat is a rhetorical question. While many people are quick to say there are other paths to God, that is not what the Bible says at all. God demands our devotion to him alone.\n33 It is God who arms me with strength and makes my way perfect.\n34 He makes my feet like the feet of a deer; he enables me to stand on the heights.\n35 He trains my hands for battle; my arms can bend a bow of bronze.\n36 You give me your shield of victory; you stoop down to make me great.\n37 You broaden the path beneath me, so that my ankles do not turn.\n38 \u201cI pursued my enemies and crushed them; I did not turn back till they were destroyed.\n39 I crushed them completely, and they could not rise; they fell beneath my feet.\n40 You armed me with strength for battle; you made my adversaries bow at my feet.\n41 You made my enemies turn their backs in flight, and I destroyed my foes.\n42 They cried for help, but there was no one to save them\u2014 to the Lord, but he did not answer.\n43 I beat them as fine as the dust of the earth; I pounded and trampled them like mud in the streets.\n44 \u201cYou have delivered me from the attacks of my people; you have preserved me as the head of nations. People I did not know are subject to me,\n45 and foreigners come cringing to me; as soon as they hear me, they obey me.\n46 They all lose heart; they come trembling from their strongholds.\n47 \u201cThe Lord lives! Praise be to my Rock! Exalted be God, the Rock, my Savior!\n48 He is the God who avenges me, who puts the nations under me,\n49 who sets me free from my enemies. You exalted me above my foes; from violent men you rescued me.\n50 Therefore I will praise you, O Lord, among the nations; I will sing praises to your name.\n51 He gives his king great victories; he shows unfailing kindness to his anointed, to David and his descendants forever.\u201d\nHow many times do I forget to give God credit for what He has done for me?\n19 Joab was told, \u201cThe king is weeping and mourning for Absalom.\u201d 2 And for the whole army the victory that day was turned into mourning, because on that day the troops heard it said, \u201cThe king is grieving for his son.\u201d 3 The men stole into the city that day as men steal in who are ashamed when they flee from battle. 4 The king covered his face and cried aloud, \u201cO my son Absalom! O Absalom, my son, my son!\u201d\n5 Then Joab went into the house to the king and said, \u201cToday you have humiliated all your men, who have just saved your life and the lives of your sons and daughters and the lives of your wives and concubines. 6 You love those who hate you and hate those who love you. You have made it clear today that the commanders and their men mean nothing to you. I see that you would be pleased if Absalom were alive today and all of us were dead. 7 Now go out and encourage your men. I swear by the Lord that if you don\u2019t go out, not a man will be left with you by nightfall. This will be worse for you than all the calamities that have come upon you from your youth till now.\u201d\nThis is a good lesson on leadership. David was understandably upset about losing his son, but he was totally self-absorbed and cared nothing about his men. Joab was brave and right in rebuking David.\nMeanwhile, the Israelites had fled to their homes. 9 Throughout the tribes of Israel, the people were all arguing with each other, saying, \u201cThe king delivered us from the hand of our enemies; he is the one who rescued us from the hand of the Philistines. But now he has fled the country because of Absalom; 10 and Absalom, whom we anointed to rule over us, has died in battle. So why do you say nothing about bringing the king back?\u201d\nCrowds are fickle. Trying to please them is difficult. We should focus on God first (\u201cseek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these will be given to you as well\u201d) and everything else will fall into place. I have seen many business leaders have people fawn all over them. Then one day the leaders get fired and it is as if they never existed.\n11 King David sent this message to Zadok and Abiathar, the priests: \u201cAsk the elders of Judah, \u2018Why should you be the last to bring the king back to his palace, since what is being said throughout Israel has reached the king at his quarters? 12 You are my brothers, my own flesh and blood. So why should you be the last to bring back the king?\u2019 13 And say to Amasa, \u2018Are you not my own flesh and blood? May God deal with me, be it ever so severely, if from now on you are not the commander of my army in place of Joab.\u2019\u201d\n14 He won over the hearts of all the men of Judah as though they were one man. They sent word to the king, \u201cReturn, you and all your men.\u201d 15 Then the king returned and went as far as the Jordan.\nWhen Shimei son of Gera crossed the Jordan, he fell prostrate before the king 19 and said to him, \u201cMay my lord not hold me guilty. Do not remember how your servant did wrong on the day my lord the king left Jerusalem. May the king put it out of his mind. 20 For I your servant know that I have sinned, but today I have come here as the first of the whole house of Joseph to come down and meet my lord the king.\u201d\n22 David replied, \u201cWhat do you and I have in common, you sons of Zeruiah? This day you have become my adversaries! Should anyone be put to death in Israel today? Do I not know that today I am king over Israel?\u201d 23 So the king said to Shimei, \u201cYou shall not die.\u201d And the king promised him on oath.\n26 He said, \u201cMy lord the king, since I your servant am lame, I said, \u2018I will have my donkey saddled and will ride on it, so I can go with the king.\u2019 But Ziba my servant betrayed me. 27 And he has slandered your servant to my lord the king. My lord the king is like an angel of God; so do whatever pleases you. 28 All my grandfather\u2019s descendants deserved nothing but death from my lord the king, but you gave your servant a place among those who sat at your table. So what right do I have to make any more appeals to the king?\u201d\n29 The king said to him, \u201cWhy say more? I order you and Ziba to divide the fields.\u201d\n30 Mephibosheth said to the king, \u201cLet him take everything, now that my lord the king has arrived home safely.\u201d\n31 Barzillai the Gileadite also came down from Rogelim to cross the Jordan with the king and to send him on his way from there. 32 Now Barzillai was a very old man, eighty years of age. He had provided for the king during his stay in Mahanaim, for he was a very wealthy man. 33 The king said to Barzillai, \u201cCross over with me and stay with me in Jerusalem, and I will provide for you.\u201d\n34 But Barzillai answered the king, \u201cHow many more years will I live, that I should go up to Jerusalem with the king? 35 I am now eighty years old. Can I tell the difference between what is good and what is not? Can your servant taste what he eats and drinks? Can I still hear the voices of men and women singers? Why should your servant be an added burden to my lord the king? 36 Your servant will cross over the Jordan with the king for a short distance, but why should the king reward me in this way? 37 Let your servant return, that I may die in my own town near the tomb of my father and mother. But here is your servant Kimham. Let him cross over with my lord the king. Do for him whatever pleases you.\u201d\n38 The king said, \u201cKimham shall cross over with me, and I will do for him whatever pleases you. And anything you desire from me I will do for you.\u201d\n39 So all the people crossed the Jordan, and then the king crossed over. The king kissed Barzillai and gave him his blessing, and Barzillai returned to his home.\n43 Then the men of Israel answered the men of Judah, \u201cWe have ten shares in the king; and besides, we have a greater claim on David than you have. So why do you treat us with contempt? Were we not the first to speak of bringing back our king?\u201d\nBut the men of Judah responded even more harshly than the men of Israel.\nDavid was very merciful and forgiving upon his return. He could have had Shimei killed (and he later advises his son, Solomon, to do just that \u2013 1 Kings 2:8-9). He quickly forgave Mephiboshesh and he rewarded Barzillai.\nSheba Rebels Against David\n20 Now a troublemaker named Sheba son of Bicri, a Benjamite, happened to be there. He sounded the trumpet and shouted,\nEvery man to his tent, O Israel!\u201d\n2 So all the men of Israel deserted David to follow Sheba son of Bicri. But the men of Judah stayed by their king all the way from the Jordan to Jerusalem.\n3 When David returned to his palace in Jerusalem, he took the ten concubines he had left to take care of the palace and put them in a house under guard. He provided for them, but did not lie with them. They were kept in confinement till the day of their death, living as widows.\n6 David said to Abishai, \u201cNow Sheba son of Bicri will do us more harm than Absalom did. Take your master\u2019s men and pursue him, or he will find fortified cities and escape from us.\u201d 7 So Joab\u2019s men and the Kerethites and Pelethites and all the mighty warriors went out under the command of Abishai. They marched out from Jerusalem to pursue Sheba son of Bicri.\n9 Joab said to Amasa, \u201cHow are you, my brother?\u201d Then Joab took Amasa by the beard with his right hand to kiss him. 10 Amasa was not on his guard against the dagger in Joab\u2019s hand, and Joab plunged it into his belly, and his intestines spilled out on the ground. Without being stabbed again, Amasa died. Then Joab and his brother Abishai pursued Sheba son of Bicri.\n11 One of Joab\u2019s men stood beside Amasa and said, \u201cWhoever favors Joab, and whoever is for David, let him follow Joab!\u201d 12 Amasa lay wallowing in his blood in the middle of the road, and the man saw that all the troops came to a halt there. When he realized that everyone who came up to Amasa stopped, he dragged him from the road into a field and threw a garment over him. 13 After Amasa had been removed from the road, all the men went on with Joab to pursue Sheba son of Bicri.\n14 Sheba passed through all the tribes of Israel to Abel Beth Maacah and through the entire region of the Berites, who gathered together and followed him. 15 All the troops with Joab came and besieged Sheba in Abel Beth Maacah. They built a siege ramp up to the city, and it stood against the outer fortifications. While they were battering the wall to bring it down, 16 a wise woman called from the city, \u201cListen! Listen! Tell Joab to come here so I can speak to him.\u201d 17 He went toward her, and she asked, \u201cAre you Joab?\u201d\n20 \u201cFar be it from me!\u201d Joab replied, \u201cFar be it from me to swallow up or destroy! 21 That is not the case. A man named Sheba son of Bicri, from the hill country of Ephraim, has lifted up his hand against the king, against David. Hand over this one man, and I\u2019ll withdraw from the city.\u201d\n22 Then the woman went to all the people with her wise advice, and they cut off the head of Sheba son of Bicri and threw it to Joab. So he sounded the trumpet, and his men dispersed from the city, each returning to his home. And Joab went back to the king in Jerusalem.\nJoab murders another man, Amasa, whom David had made leader of the army. He appears to go unpunished, but is later killed for his deeds (1 Kings 2:28-35).\nWhat parts of this passage stood out to you?\n17 Ahithophel said to Absalom, \u201cI would choose twelve thousand men and set out tonight in pursuit of David. 2 I would attack him while he is weary and weak. I would strike him with terror, and then all the people with him will flee. I would strike down only the king 3 and bring all the people back to you. The death of the man you seek will mean the return of all; all the people will be unharmed.\u201d 4 This plan seemed good to Absalom and to all the elders of Israel.\n5 But Absalom said, \u201cSummon also Hushai the Arkite, so we can hear what he has to say.\u201d 6 When Hushai came to him, Absalom said, \u201cAhithophel has given this advice. Should we do what he says? If not, give us your opinion.\u201d\n7 Hushai replied to Absalom, \u201cThe advice Ahithophel has given is not good this time. 8 You know your father and his men; they are fighters, and as fierce as a wild bear robbed of her cubs. Besides, your father is an experienced fighter; he will not spend the night with the troops. 9 Even now, he is hidden in a cave or some other place. If he should attack your troops first, whoever hears about it will say, \u2018There has been a slaughter among the troops who follow Absalom.\u2019 10 Then even the bravest soldier, whose heart is like the heart of a lion, will melt with fear, for all Israel knows that your father is a fighter and that those with him are brave.\n11 \u201cSo I advise you: Let all Israel, from Dan to Beersheba\u2014as numerous as the sand on the seashore\u2014be gathered to you, with you yourself leading them into battle. 12 Then we will attack him wherever he may be found, and we will fall on him as dew settles on the ground. Neither he nor any of his men will be left alive. 13 If he withdraws into a city, then all Israel will bring ropes to that city, and we will drag it down to the valley until not even a piece of it can be found.\u201d\n14 Absalom and all the men of Israel said, \u201cThe advice of Hushai the Arkite is better than that of Ahithophel.\u201d For the Lord had determined to frustrate the good advice of Ahithophel in order to bring disaster on Absalom.\nAhithopel\u2019s advice was clearly better, but God was at work here. Hushai got Absalom involved in the fighting.\n15 Hushai told Zadok and Abiathar, the priests, \u201cAhithophel has advised Absalom and the elders of Israel to do such and such, but I have advised them to do so and so. 16 Now send a message immediately and tell David, \u2018Do not spend the night at the fords in the desert; cross over without fail, or the king and all the people with him will be swallowed up.\u2019\u201d\n17 Jonathan and Ahimaaz were staying at En Rogel. A servant girl was to go and inform them, and they were to go and tell King David, for they could not risk being seen entering the city. 18 But a young man saw them and told Absalom. So the two of them left quickly and went to the house of a man in Bahurim. He had a well in his courtyard, and they climbed down into it. 19 His wife took a covering and spread it out over the opening of the well and scattered grain over it. No one knew anything about it.\n20 When Absalom\u2019s men came to the woman at the house, they asked, \u201cWhere are Ahimaaz and Jonathan?\u201d\nThe woman answered them, \u201cThey crossed over the brook.\u201df The men searched but found no one, so they returned to Jerusalem.\n21 After the men had gone, the two climbed out of the well and went to inform King David. They said to him, \u201cSet out and cross the river at once; Ahithophel has advised such and such against you.\u201d 22 So David and all the people with him set out and crossed the Jordan. By daybreak, no one was left who had not crossed the Jordan.\n23 When Ahithophel saw that his advice had not been followed, he saddled his donkey and set out for his house in his hometown. He put his house in order and then hanged himself. So he died and was buried in his father\u2019s tomb.\nTalk about overreacting! Too bad he hadn\u2019t turned to God, who can make the best of any bad situation.\n24 David went to Mahanaim, and Absalom crossed the Jordan with all the men of Israel. 25 Absalom had appointed Amasa over the army in place of Joab. Amasa was the son of a man named Jether, an Israelite who had married Abigail, the daughter of Nahash and sister of Zeruiah the mother of Joab. 26 The Israelites and Absalom camped in the land of Gilead.\n27 When David came to Mahanaim, Shobi son of Nahash from Rabbah of the Ammonites, and Makir son of Ammiel from Lo Debar, and Barzillai the Gileadite from Rogelim 28 brought bedding and bowls and articles of pottery. They also brought wheat and barley, flour and roasted grain, beans and lentils, 29 honey and curds, sheep, and cheese from cows\u2019 milk for David and his people to eat. For they said, \u201cThe people have become hungry and tired and thirsty in the desert.\u201d\nAbsalom\u2019s Death\n18 David mustered the men who were with him and appointed over them commanders of thousands and commanders of hundreds. 2 David sent the troops out\u2014a third under the command of Joab, a third under Joab\u2019s brother Abishai son of Zeruiah, and a third under Ittai the Gittite. The king told the troops, \u201cI myself will surely march out with you.\u201d\n3 But the men said, \u201cYou must not go out; if we are forced to flee, they won\u2019t care about us. Even if half of us die, they won\u2019t care; but you are worth ten thousand of us. It would be better now for you to give us support from the city.\u201d\n4 The king answered, \u201cI will do whatever seems best to you.\u201d\nSo the king stood beside the gate while all the men marched out in units of hundreds and of thousands. 5 The king commanded Joab, Abishai and Ittai, \u201cBe gentle with the young man Absalom for my sake.\u201d And all the troops heard the king giving orders concerning Absalom to each of the commanders.\n6 The army marched into the field to fight Israel, and the battle took place in the forest of Ephraim. 7 There the army of Israel was defeated by David\u2019s men, and the casualties that day were great\u2014twenty thousand men. 8 The battle spread out over the whole countryside, and the forest claimed more lives that day than the sword.\n9 Now Absalom happened to meet David\u2019s men. He was riding his mule, and as the mule went under the thick branches of a large oak, Absalom\u2019s head got caught in the tree. He was left hanging in midair, while the mule he was riding kept on going.\n10 When one of the men saw this, he told Joab, \u201cI just saw Absalom hanging in an oak tree.\u201d\n11 Joab said to the man who had told him this, \u201cWhat! You saw him? Why didn\u2019t you strike him to the ground right there? Then I would have had to give you ten shekels of silver and a warrior\u2019s belt.\u201d\n12 But the man replied, \u201cEven if a thousand shekels were weighed out into my hands, I would not lift my hand against the king\u2019s son. In our hearing the king commanded you and Abishai and Ittai, \u2018Protect the young man Absalom for my sake.\u2019 13 And if I had put my life in jeopardy\u2014and nothing is hidden from the king\u2014you would have kept your distance from me.\u201d\nThe man knew enough about Joab not to trust him. Joab defied the king\u2019s orders.\n14 Joab said, \u201cI\u2019m not going to wait like this for you.\u201d So he took three javelins in his hand and plunged them into Absalom\u2019s heart while Absalom was still alive in the oak tree. 15 And ten of Joab\u2019s armor-bearers surrounded Absalom, struck him and killed him.\n16 Then Joab sounded the trumpet, and the troops stopped pursuing Israel, for Joab halted them. 17 They took Absalom, threw him into a big pit in the forest and piled up a large heap of rocks over him. Meanwhile, all the Israelites fled to their homes.\n18 During his lifetime Absalom had taken a pillar and erected it in the King\u2019s Valley as a monument to himself, for he thought, \u201cI have no son to carry on the memory of my name.\u201d He named the pillar after himself, and it is called Absalom\u2019s Monument to this day.\nDavid Mourns\n19 Now Ahimaaz son of Zadok said, \u201cLet me run and take the news to the king that the Lord has delivered him from the hand of his enemies.\u201d\n20 \u201cYou are not the one to take the news today,\u201d Joab told him. \u201cYou may take the news another time, but you must not do so today, because the king\u2019s son is dead.\u201d\n21 Then Joab said to a Cushite, \u201cGo, tell the king what you have seen.\u201d The Cushite bowed down before Joab and ran off.\n22 Ahimaaz son of Zadok again said to Joab, \u201cCome what may, please let me run behind the Cushite.\u201d\nBut Joab replied, \u201cMy son, why do you want to go? You don\u2019t have any news that will bring you a reward.\u201d\n23 He said, \u201cCome what may, I want to run.\u201d\nSo Joab said, \u201cRun!\u201d Then Ahimaaz ran by way of the plain and outran the Cushite.\n24 While David was sitting between the inner and outer gates, the watchman went up to the roof of the gateway by the wall. As he looked out, he saw a man running alone. 25 The watchman called out to the king and reported it.\nThe king said, \u201cIf he is alone, he must have good news.\u201d And the man came closer and closer.\n26 Then the watchman saw another man running, and he called down to the gatekeeper, \u201cLook, another man running alone!\u201d\nThe king said, \u201cHe must be bringing good news, too.\u201d\n27 The watchman said, \u201cIt seems to me that the first one runs like Ahimaaz son of Zadok.\u201d\n\u201cHe\u2019s a good man,\u201d the king said. \u201cHe comes with good news.\u201d\n28 Then Ahimaaz called out to the king, \u201cAll is well!\u201d He bowed down before the king with his face to the ground and said, \u201cPraise be to the Lord your God! He has delivered up the men who lifted their hands against my lord the king.\u201d\n29 The king asked, \u201cIs the young man Absalom safe?\u201d\nAhimaaz answered, \u201cI saw great confusion just as Joab was about to send the king\u2019s servant and me, your servant, but I don\u2019t know what it was.\u201d\n30 The king said, \u201cStand aside and wait here.\u201d So he stepped aside and stood there.\n31 Then the Cushite arrived and said, \u201cMy lord the king, hear the good news! The Lord has delivered you today from all who rose up against you.\u201d\n32 The king asked the Cushite, \u201cIs the young man Absalom safe?\u201d\nThe Cushite replied, \u201cMay the enemies of my lord the king and all who rise up to harm you be like that young man.\u201d\n33 The king was shaken. He went up to the room over the gateway and wept. As he went, he said: \u201cO my son Absalom! My son, my son Absalom! If only I had died instead of you\u2014O Absalom, my son, my son!\u201d\nDavid was grief stricken, presumably for multiple reasons. Absalom was his son, of course, even though they had a fractured relationship. Absalom\u2019s rebellion was predicted by the prophet Nathan after David sinned with Bathsheba. David had been a poor father in letting things get so out of hand. And David\u2019s orders had been violated.\nYou may want to read Psalm 3 for David\u2019s perspective on this episode.\nAbsalom\u2019s Conspiracy\n15 In the course of time, Absalom provided himself with a chariot and horses and with fifty men to run ahead of him. 2 He would get up early and stand by the side of the road leading to the city gate. Whenever anyone came with a complaint to be placed before the king for a decision, Absalom would call out to him, \u201cWhat town are you from?\u201d He would answer, \u201cYour servant is from one of the tribes of Israel.\u201d 3 Then Absalom would say to him, \u201cLook, your claims are valid and proper, but there is no representative of the king to hear you.\u201d 4 And Absalom would add, \u201cIf only I were appointed judge in the land! Then everyone who has a complaint or case could come to me and I would see that he gets justice.\u201d\n5 Also, whenever anyone approached him to bow down before him, Absalom would reach out his hand, take hold of him and kiss him. 6 Absalom behaved in this way toward all the Israelites who came to the king asking for justice, and so he stole the hearts of the men of Israel.\n7 At the end of four years, Absalom said to the king, \u201cLet me go to Hebron and fulfill a vow I made to the Lord. 8 While your servant was living at Geshur in Aram, I made this vow: \u2018If the Lord takes me back to Jerusalem, I will worship the Lord in Hebron.\u2019\u201d\n9 The king said to him, \u201cGo in peace.\u201d So he went to Hebron.\n10 Then Absalom sent secret messengers throughout the tribes of Israel to say, \u201cAs soon as you hear the sound of the trumpets, then say, \u2018Absalom is king in Hebron.\u2019\u201d 11 Two hundred men from Jerusalem had accompanied Absalom. They had been invited as guests and went quite innocently, knowing nothing about the matter. 12 While Absalom was offering sacrifices, he also sent for Ahithophel the Gilonite, David\u2019s counselor, to come from Giloh, his hometown. And so the conspiracy gained strength, and Absalom\u2019s following kept on increasing.\nDavid let Absalom\u2019s murder of his brother, Amnon, go unpunished. Absalom was politically shrewd but still evil in plotting against his father. If only he had been patient he would have eventually been king. He obviously had no interest in worshiping the Lord anywhere.\nDavid Flees\n13 A messenger came and told David, \u201cThe hearts of the men of Israel are with Absalom.\u201d\n14 Then David said to all his officials who were with him in Jerusalem, \u201cCome! We must flee, or none of us will escape from Absalom. We must leave immediately, or he will move quickly to overtake us and bring ruin upon us and put the city to the sword.\u201d\n15 The king\u2019s officials answered him, \u201cYour servants are ready to do whatever our lord the king chooses.\u201d\n16 The king set out, with his entire household following him; but he left ten concubines to take care of the palace. 17 So the king set out, with all the people following him, and they halted at a place some distance away. 18 All his men marched past him, along with all the Kerethites and Pelethites; and all the six hundred Gittites who had accompanied him from Gath marched before the king.\n19 The king said to Ittai the Gittite, \u201cWhy should you come along with us? Go back and stay with King Absalom. You are a foreigner, an exile from your homeland. 20 You came only yesterday. And today shall I make you wander about with us, when I do not know where I am going? Go back, and take your countrymen. May kindness and faithfulness be with you.\u201d\n21 But Ittai replied to the king, \u201cAs surely as the Lord lives, and as my lord the king lives, wherever my lord the king may be, whether it means life or death, there will your servant be.\u201d\n22 David said to Ittai, \u201cGo ahead, march on.\u201d So Ittai the Gittite marched on with all his men and the families that were with him.\n23 The whole countryside wept aloud as all the people passed by. The king also crossed the Kidron Valley, and all the people moved on toward the desert.\n24 Zadok was there, too, and all the Levites who were with him were carrying the ark of the covenant of God. They set down the ark of God, and Abiathar offered sacrifices until all the people had finished leaving the city.\n25 Then the king said to Zadok, \u201cTake the ark of God back into the city. If I find favor in the Lord\u2019s eyes, he will bring me back and let me see it and his dwelling place again. 26 But if he says, \u2018I am not pleased with you,\u2019 then I am ready; let him do to me whatever seems good to him.\u201d\n27 The king also said to Zadok the priest, \u201cAren\u2019t you a seer? Go back to the city in peace, with your son Ahimaaz and Jonathan son of Abiathar. You and Abiathar take your two sons with you. 28 I will wait at the fords in the desert until word comes from you to inform me.\u201d 29 So Zadok and Abiathar took the ark of God back to Jerusalem and stayed there.\n30 But David continued up the Mount of Olives, weeping as he went; his head was covered and he was barefoot. All the people with him covered their heads too and were weeping as they went up. 31 Now David had been told, \u201cAhithophel is among the conspirators with Absalom.\u201d So David prayed, \u201cO Lord, turn Ahithophel\u2019s counsel into foolishness.\u201d\n32 When David arrived at the summit, where people used to worship God, Hushai the Arkite was there to meet him, his robe torn and dust on his head. 33 David said to him, \u201cIf you go with me, you will be a burden to me. 34 But if you return to the city and say to Absalom, \u2018I will be your servant, O king; I was your father\u2019s servant in the past, but now I will be your servant,\u2019 then you can help me by frustrating Ahithophel\u2019s advice. 35 Won\u2019t the priests Zadok and Abiathar be there with you? Tell them anything you hear in the king\u2019s palace. 36 Their two sons, Ahimaaz son of Zadok and Jonathan son of Abiathar, are there with them. Send them to me with anything you hear.\u201d\n37 So David\u2019s friend Hushai arrived at Jerusalem as Absalom was entering the city.\nDavid was weeping and barefoot. It is hard to imagine any of today\u2019s political leaders in such a humble position.\nDavid tried to get a spy in the court of Absalom.\n16 When David had gone a short distance beyond the summit, there was Ziba, the steward of Mephibosheth, waiting to meet him. He had a string of donkeys saddled and loaded with two hundred loaves of bread, a hundred cakes of raisins, a hundred cakes of figs and a skin of wine.\n2 The king asked Ziba, \u201cWhy have you brought these?\u201d\nZiba answered, \u201cThe donkeys are for the king\u2019s household to ride on, the bread and fruit are for the men to eat, and the wine is to refresh those who become exhausted in the desert.\u201d\n3 The king then asked, \u201cWhere is your master\u2019s grandson?\u201d\nZiba said to him, \u201cHe is staying in Jerusalem, because he thinks, \u2018Today the house of Israel will give me back my grandfather\u2019s kingdom.\u2019\u201d\n4 Then the king said to Ziba, \u201cAll that belonged to Mephibosheth is now yours.\u201d\n\u201cI humbly bow,\u201d Ziba said. \u201cMay I find favor in your eyes, my lord the king.\u201d\nAs we\u2019ll learn in chapter 19, David should have been more skeptical of this report that Mephibosheth was a traitor. See chapter 9 for more on Mephibosheth.\n5 As King David approached Bahurim, a man from the same clan as Saul\u2019s family came out from there. His name was Shimei son of Gera, and he cursed as he came out. 6 He pelted David and all the king\u2019s officials with stones, though all the troops and the special guard were on David\u2019s right and left. 7 As he cursed, Shimei said, \u201cGet out, get out, you man of blood, you scoundrel! 8 The Lord has repaid you for all the blood you shed in the household of Saul, in whose place you have reigned. The Lord has handed the kingdom over to your son Absalom. You have come to ruin because you are a man of blood!\u201d\n9 Then Abishai son of Zeruiah said to the king, \u201cWhy should this dead dog curse my lord the king? Let me go over and cut off his head.\u201d\n10 But the king said, \u201cWhat do you and I have in common, you sons of Zeruiah? If he is cursing because the Lord said to him, \u2018Curse David,\u2019 who can ask, \u2018Why do you do this?\u2019\u201d\nDavid exhibited extraordinary patience here. Most kings would have had the man killed on the spot.\n11 David then said to Abishai and all his officials, \u201cMy son, who is of my own flesh, is trying to take my life. How much more, then, this Benjamite! Leave him alone; let him curse, for the Lord has told him to. 12 It may be that the Lord will see my distress and repay me with good for the cursing I am receiving today.\u201d\n13 So David and his men continued along the road while Shimei was going along the hillside opposite him, cursing as he went and throwing stones at him and showering him with dirt. 14 The king and all the people with him arrived at their destination exhausted. And there he refreshed himself.\nThe Advice of Hushai and Ahithophel\n15 Meanwhile, Absalom and all the men of Israel came to Jerusalem, and Ahithophel was with him. 16 Then Hushai the Arkite, David\u2019s friend, went to Absalom and said to him, \u201cLong live the king! Long live the king!\u201d\n17 Absalom asked Hushai, \u201cIs this the love you show your friend? Why didn\u2019t you go with your friend?\u201d\n18 Hushai said to Absalom, \u201cNo, the one chosen by the Lord, by these people, and by all the men of Israel\u2014his I will be, and I will remain with him. 19 Furthermore, whom should I serve? Should I not serve the son? Just as I served your father, so I will serve you.\u201d\n20 Absalom said to Ahithophel, \u201cGive us your advice. What should we do?\u201d\n21 Ahithophel answered, \u201cLie with your father\u2019s concubines whom he left to take care of the palace. Then all Israel will hear that you have made yourself a stench in your father\u2019s nostrils, and the hands of everyone with you will be strengthened.\u201d 22 So they pitched a tent for Absalom on the roof, and he lay with his father\u2019s concubines in the sight of all Israel.\n23 Now in those days the advice Ahithophel gave was like that of one who inquires of God. That was how both David and Absalom regarded all of Ahithophel\u2019s advice.\nWhen Absalom had sex with David\u2019s concubines in the sight of everyone it fulfilled Nathan\u2019s prediction from chapter 12. It was also one of those stories they didn\u2019t teach you in Sunday School growing up.\n13 In the course of time, Amnon son of David fell in love with Tamar, the beautiful sister of Absalom son of David.\n2 Amnon became frustrated to the point of illness on account of his sister Tamar, for she was a virgin, and it seemed impossible for him to do anything to her.\n3 Now Amnon had a friend named Jonadab son of Shimeah, David\u2019s brother. Jonadab was a very shrewd man. 4 He asked Amnon, \u201cWhy do you, the king\u2019s son, look so haggard morning after morning? Won\u2019t you tell me?\u201d\nAmnon said to him, \u201cI\u2019m in love with Tamar, my brother Absalom\u2019s sister.\u201d\n5 \u201cGo to bed and pretend to be ill,\u201d Jonadab said. \u201cWhen your father comes to see you, say to him, \u2018I would like my sister Tamar to come and give me something to eat. Let her prepare the food in my sight so I may watch her and then eat it from her hand.\u2019\u201d\nThere are lots of examples of people not to follow in this chapter. Jonadab indulges his friend\u2019s worst desires. True friends hold people accountable and don\u2019t encourage them to sin. Though I have found that it is easy to go too easy on friends sometimes.\nAmnon wasn\u2019t in love with Tamar. Love is having someone\u2019s long-term best interests at heart. He was in lust with her. He was obsessed with someone (something) because it was out of reach.\n6 So Amnon lay down and pretended to be ill. When the king came to see him, Amnon said to him, \u201cI would like my sister Tamar to come and make some special bread in my sight, so I may eat from her hand.\u201d\n7 David sent word to Tamar at the palace: \u201cGo to the house of your brother Amnon and prepare some food for him.\u201d 8 So Tamar went to the house of her brother Amnon, who was lying down. She took some dough, kneaded it, made the bread in his sight and baked it. 9 Then she took the pan and served him the bread, but he refused to eat.\n\u201cSend everyone out of here,\u201d Amnon said. So everyone left him. 10 Then Amnon said to Tamar, \u201cBring the food here into my bedroom so I may eat from your hand.\u201d And Tamar took the bread she had prepared and brought it to her brother Amnon in his bedroom. 11 But when she took it to him to eat, he grabbed her and said, \u201cCome to bed with me, my sister.\u201d\n12 \u201cDon\u2019t, my brother!\u201d she said to him. \u201cDon\u2019t force me. Such a thing should not be done in Israel! Don\u2019t do this wicked thing. 13 What about me? Where could I get rid of my disgrace? And what about you? You would be like one of the wicked fools in Israel. Please speak to the king; he will not keep me from being married to you.\u201d 14 But he refused to listen to her, and since he was stronger than she, he raped her.\n15 Then Amnon hated her with intense hatred. In fact, he hated her more than he had loved her. Amnon said to her, \u201cGet up and get out!\u201d\nTragically, some guys will say anything to sleep with a girl but will then resent her. Reason #17 not to have sex outside of marriage.\n16 \u201cNo!\u201d she said to him. \u201cSending me away would be a greater wrong than what you have already done to me.\u201d\nBut he refused to listen to her. 17 He called his personal servant and said, \u201cGet this woman out of here and bolt the door after her.\u201d 18 So his servant put her out and bolted the door after her. She was wearing a richly ornamented robe, for this was the kind of garment the virgin daughters of the king wore. 19 Tamar put ashes on her head and tore the ornamented robe she was wearing. She put her hand on her head and went away, weeping aloud as she went.\n20 Her brother Absalom said to her, \u201cHas that Amnon, your brother, been with you? Be quiet now, my sister; he is your brother. Don\u2019t take this thing to heart.\u201d And Tamar lived in her brother Absalom\u2019s house, a desolate woman.\n21 When King David heard all this, he was furious. 22 Absalom never said a word to Amnon, either good or bad; he hated Amnon because he had disgraced his sister Tamar.\nDavid was furious, but what did he do to prevent this or to administer consequences to Amnon? Did he hold back because he was guilty of adultery as well? Technically, he didn\u2019t rape Bathsheba, but given then he had the power of being king it was akin to forcing himself on her. Amnon was next in line to be king, so perhaps that influenced David\u2019s behavior. He seemed conflicted as to how to interact with him.\nSadly, Tamar was desolate and disgraced when she had done nothing wrong. Muslims take these \u201chonor\u201d issues to an extreme and actually kill girls who have been raped.\nAbsalom Kills Amnon\n23 Two years later, when Absalom\u2019s sheepshearers were at Baal Hazor near the border of Ephraim, he invited all the king\u2019s sons to come there. 24 Absalom went to the king and said, \u201cYour servant has had shearers come. Will the king and his officials please join me?\u201d\n25 \u201cNo, my son,\u201d the king replied. \u201cAll of us should not go; we would only be a burden to you.\u201d Although Absalom urged him, he still refused to go, but gave him his blessing.\n26 Then Absalom said, \u201cIf not, please let my brother Amnon come with us.\u201d\nThe king asked him, \u201cWhy should he go with you?\u201d 27 But Absalom urged him, so he sent with him Amnon and the rest of the king\u2019s sons.\n28 Absalom ordered his men, \u201cListen! When Amnon is in high spirits from drinking wine and I say to you, \u2018Strike Amnon down,\u2019 then kill him. Don\u2019t be afraid. Have not I given you this order? Be strong and brave.\u201d 29 So Absalom\u2019s men did to Amnon what Absalom had ordered. Then all the king\u2019s sons got up, mounted their mules and fled.\n30 While they were on their way, the report came to David: \u201cAbsalom has struck down all the king\u2019s sons; not one of them is left.\u201d 31 The king stood up, tore his clothes and lay down on the ground; and all his servants stood by with their clothes torn.\n32 But Jonadab son of Shimeah, David\u2019s brother, said, \u201cMy lord should not think that they killed all the princes; only Amnon is dead. This has been Absalom\u2019s expressed intention ever since the day Amnon raped his sister Tamar. 33 My lord the king should not be concerned about the report that all the king\u2019s sons are dead. Only Amnon is dead.\u201d\n34 Meanwhile, Absalom had fled.\nNow the man standing watch looked up and saw many people on the road west of him, coming down the side of the hill. The watchman went and told the king, \u201cI see men in the direction of Horonaim, on the side of the hill.\u201d\n35 Jonadab said to the king, \u201cSee, the king\u2019s sons are here; it has happened just as your servant said.\u201d\n36 As he finished speaking, the king\u2019s sons came in, wailing loudly. The king, too, and all his servants wept very bitterly.\n37 Absalom fled and went to Talmai son of Ammihud, the king of Geshur. But King David mourned for his son every day.\n38 After Absalom fled and went to Geshur, he stayed there three years. 39 And the spirit of the king longed to go to Absalom, for he was consoled concerning Amnon\u2019s death.\n14 Joab son of Zeruiah knew that the king\u2019s heart longed for Absalom. 2 So Joab sent someone to Tekoa and had a wise woman brought from there. He said to her, \u201cPretend you are in mourning. Dress in mourning clothes, and don\u2019t use any cosmetic lotions. Act like a woman who has spent many days grieving for the dead. 3 Then go to the king and speak these words to him.\u201d And Joab put the words in her mouth.\n4 When the woman from Tekoa went to the king, she fell with her face to the ground to pay him honor, and she said, \u201cHelp me, O king!\u201d\n5 The king asked her, \u201cWhat is troubling you?\u201d\nShe said, \u201cI am indeed a widow; my husband is dead. 6 I your servant had two sons. They got into a fight with each other in the field, and no one was there to separate them. One struck the other and killed him. 7 Now the whole clan has risen up against your servant; they say, \u2018Hand over the one who struck his brother down, so that we may put him to death for the life of his brother whom he killed; then we will get rid of the heir as well.\u2019 They would put out the only burning coal I have left, leaving my husband neither name nor descendant on the face of the earth.\u201d\n8 The king said to the woman, \u201cGo home, and I will issue an order in your behalf.\u201d\n9 But the woman from Tekoa said to him, \u201cMy lord the king, let the blame rest on me and on my father\u2019s family, and let the king and his throne be without guilt.\u201d\n10 The king replied, \u201cIf anyone says anything to you, bring him to me, and he will not bother you again.\u201d\n11 She said, \u201cThen let the king invoke the Lord his God to prevent the avenger of blood from adding to the destruction, so that my son will not be destroyed.\u201d\n\u201cAs surely as the Lord lives,\u201d he said, \u201cnot one hair of your son\u2019s head will fall to the ground.\u201d\n12 Then the woman said, \u201cLet your servant speak a word to my lord the king.\u201d\n\u201cSpeak,\u201d he replied.\n13 The woman said, \u201cWhy then have you devised a thing like this against the people of God? When the king says this, does he not convict himself, for the king has not brought back his banished son? 14 Like water spilled on the ground, which cannot be recovered, so we must die. But God does not take away life; instead, he devises ways so that a banished person may not remain estranged from him.\n15 \u201cAnd now I have come to say this to my lord the king because the people have made me afraid. Your servant thought, \u2018I will speak to the king; perhaps he will do what his servant asks. 16 Perhaps the king will agree to deliver his servant from the hand of the man who is trying to cut off both me and my son from the inheritance God gave us.\u2019\n17 \u201cAnd now your servant says, \u2018May the word of my lord the king bring me rest, for my lord the king is like an angel of God in discerning good and evil. May the Lord your God be with you.\u2019\u201d\n18 Then the king said to the woman, \u201cDo not keep from me the answer to what I am going to ask you.\u201d\n\u201cLet my lord the king speak,\u201d the woman said.\n19 The king asked, \u201cIsn\u2019t the hand of Joab with you in all this?\u201d\nThe woman answered, \u201cAs surely as you live, my lord the king, no one can turn to the right or to the left from anything my lord the king says. Yes, it was your servant Joab who instructed me to do this and who put all these words into the mouth of your servant. 20 Your servant Joab did this to change the present situation. My lord has wisdom like that of an angel of God\u2014he knows everything that happens in the land.\u201d\n21 The king said to Joab, \u201cVery well, I will do it. Go, bring back the young man Absalom.\u201d\n22 Joab fell with his face to the ground to pay him honor, and he blessed the king. Joab said, \u201cToday your servant knows that he has found favor in your eyes, my lord the king, because the king has granted his servant\u2019s request.\u201d\n23 Then Joab went to Geshur and brought Absalom back to Jerusalem. 24 But the king said, \u201cHe must go to his own house; he must not see my face.\u201d So Absalom went to his own house and did not see the face of the king.\n25 In all Israel there was not a man so highly praised for his handsome appearance as Absalom. From the top of his head to the sole of his foot there was no blemish in him. 26 Whenever he cut the hair of his head\u2014he used to cut his hair from time to time when it became too heavy for him\u2014he would weigh it, and its weight was two hundred shekels by the royal standard.\n27 Three sons and a daughter were born to Absalom. The daughter\u2019s name was Tamar, and she became a beautiful woman.\n28 Absalom lived two years in Jerusalem without seeing the king\u2019s face. 29 Then Absalom sent for Joab in order to send him to the king, but Joab refused to come to him. So he sent a second time, but he refused to come. 30 Then he said to his servants, \u201cLook, Joab\u2019s field is next to mine, and he has barley there. Go and set it on fire.\u201d So Absalom\u2019s servants set the field on fire.\n31 Then Joab did go to Absalom\u2019s house and he said to him, \u201cWhy have your servants set my field on fire?\u201d\n32 Absalom said to Joab, \u201cLook, I sent word to you and said, \u2018Come here so I can send you to the king to ask, \u201cWhy have I come from Geshur? It would be better for me if I were still there!\u201d\u2019 Now then, I want to see the king\u2019s face, and if I am guilty of anything, let him put me to death.\u201d\n33 So Joab went to the king and told him this. Then the king summoned Absalom, and he came in and bowed down with his face to the ground before the king. And the king kissed Absalom.\nI highly recommend reading Psalm 51 to get David\u2019s repentance following this episode.\nThis is one of those familiar stories that you may want to read slowly and carefully. David was a man after God\u2019s own heart, but he got complacent and slipped badly. He eventually repented and was forgiven, but the consequences were severe and lasted for generations.\nIt is easy to pick on David here, but what lesssons does this hold for us?\n11 In the spring, at the time when kings go off to war, David sent Joab out with the king\u2019s men and the whole Israelite army. They destroyed the Ammonites and besieged Rabbah. But David remained in Jerusalem.\nFor starters, David stayed home for some reason. Being idle is a risk for us. We don\u2019t need to be frenetically busy, but too much idle time can bring about more temptations.\n2 One evening David got up from his bed and walked around on the roof of the palace. From the roof he saw a woman bathing. The woman was very beautiful, 3 and David sent someone to find out about her. The man said, \u201cIsn\u2019t this Bathsheba, the daughter of Eliam and the wife of Uriah the Hittite?\u201d 4 Then David sent messengers to get her. She came to him, and he slept with her. (She had purified herself from her uncleanness.) Then she went back home. 5 The woman conceived and sent word to David, saying, \u201cI am pregnant.\u201d\nNotice how the man tried to stop David from sinning by pointing out that this was someone else\u2019s wife. Do you have people in your life that will try to prevent you from doing something wrong (not necessarily adultery)? Sometimes I do and sometimes I don\u2019t. I have to ask myself if I am willing to listen when people do bring up concerns.\nWhat was Bathsheba\u2019s role in this? She was certainly in an awkward position to say no to the king, but she could have prevented the whole thing as well.\nDavid thought he could cover it up, but she got pregnant. Despite advances in birth control, countless people get pregnant anyway. Abstinence is the way, people! God designed sex for one man / one woman marriages. If you go outside that, bad things happen. Always.\n6 So David sent this word to Joab: \u201cSend me Uriah the Hittite.\u201d And Joab sent him to David. 7 When Uriah came to him, David asked him how Joab was, how the soldiers were and how the war was going. 8 Then David said to Uriah, \u201cGo down to your house and wash your feet.\u201d So Uriah left the palace, and a gift from the king was sent after him. 9 But Uriah slept at the entrance to the palace with all his master\u2019s servants and did not go down to his house.\n10 When David was told, \u201cUriah did not go home,\u201d he asked him, \u201cHaven\u2019t you just come from a distance? Why didn\u2019t you go home?\u201d\n11 Uriah said to David, \u201cThe ark and Israel and Judah are staying in tents, and my master Joab and my lord\u2019s men are camped in the open fields. How could I go to my house to eat and drink and lie with my wife? As surely as you live, I will not do such a thing!\u201d\n12 Then David said to him, \u201cStay here one more day, and tomorrow I will send you back.\u201d So Uriah remained in Jerusalem that day and the next. 13 At David\u2019s invitation, he ate and drank with him, and David made him drunk. But in the evening Uriah went out to sleep on his mat among his master\u2019s servants; he did not go home.\nDavid tried to trick Uriah into sleeping with Bathsheba, but Uriah had more character at the time than David. Too bad David didn\u2019t get convicted at that point and cut his losses. Instead, he decides to have Uriah killed.\nDid David really think his plan would work? They didn\u2019t have 4-D ultrasounds then, but they had probably figured out how long it takes for a baby to be born after conception. Imagine how many people were already whispering about their liaison. Sometimes when we get caught in sin we lose perspective and think all sorts of untrue things.\n14 In the morning David wrote a letter to Joab and sent it with Uriah. 15 In it he wrote, \u201cPut Uriah in the front line where the fighting is fiercest. Then withdraw from him so he will be struck down and die.\u201d\n16 So while Joab had the city under siege, he put Uriah at a place where he knew the strongest defenders were. 17 When the men of the city came out and fought against Joab, some of the men in David\u2019s army fell; moreover, Uriah the Hittite died.\n18 Joab sent David a full account of the battle. 19 He instructed the messenger: \u201cWhen you have finished giving the king this account of the battle, 20 the king\u2019s anger may flare up, and he may ask you, \u2018Why did you get so close to the city to fight? Didn\u2019t you know they would shoot arrows from the wall? 21 Who killed Abimelech son of Jerub-Besheth? Didn\u2019t a woman throw an upper millstone on him from the wall, so that he died in Thebez? Why did you get so close to the wall?\u2019 If he asks you this, then say to him, \u2018Also, your servant Uriah the Hittite is dead.\u2019\u201d\n22 The messenger set out, and when he arrived he told David everything Joab had sent him to say. 23 The messenger said to David, \u201cThe men overpowered us and came out against us in the open, but we drove them back to the entrance to the city gate. 24 Then the archers shot arrows at your servants from the wall, and some of the king\u2019s men died. Moreover, your servant Uriah the Hittite is dead.\u201d\n25 David told the messenger, \u201cSay this to Joab: \u2018Don\u2019t let this upset you; the sword devours one as well as another. Press the attack against the city and destroy it.\u2019 Say this to encourage Joab.\u201d\nDavid was a cold-blooded adulterer and killer. Yet, amazingly, God forgave him \u2013 just like he will forgive us of our countless sins when we repent and believe in Jesus.\n26 When Uriah\u2019s wife heard that her husband was dead, she mourned for him. 27 After the time of mourning was over, David had her brought to his house, and she became his wife and bore him a son. But the thing David had done displeased the Lord.\n12 The Lord sent Nathan to David. When he came to him, he said, \u201cThere were two men in a certain town, one rich and the other poor. 2 The rich man had a very large number of sheep and cattle, 3 but the poor man had nothing except one little ewe lamb he had bought. He raised it, and it grew up with him and his children. It shared his food, drank from his cup and even slept in his arms. It was like a daughter to him.\n4 \u201cNow a traveler came to the rich man, but the rich man refrained from taking one of his own sheep or cattle to prepare a meal for the traveler who had come to him. Instead, he took the ewe lamb that belonged to the poor man and prepared it for the one who had come to him.\u201d\n5 David burned with anger against the man and said to Nathan, \u201cAs surely as the Lord lives, the man who did this deserves to die! 6 He must pay for that lamb four times over, because he did such a thing and had no pity.\u201d\n7 Then Nathan said to David, \u201cYou are the man! This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: \u2018I anointed you king over Israel, and I delivered you from the hand of Saul. 8 I gave your master\u2019s house to you, and your master\u2019s wives into your arms. I gave you the house of Israel and Judah. And if all this had been too little, I would have given you even more. 9 Why did you despise the word of the Lord by doing what is evil in his eyes? You struck down Uriah the Hittite with the sword and took his wife to be your own. You killed him with the sword of the Ammonites. 10 Now, therefore, the sword will never depart from your house, because you despised me and took the wife of Uriah the Hittite to be your own.\u2019\n\u201cYou are the man!\u201d is a powerful verse. David worried more about this lamb than the man he had murdered. Many times I find myself worrying more about insignificant injustices than the truly important things in life.\n11 \u201cThis is what the Lord says: \u2018Out of your own household I am going to bring calamity upon you. Before your very eyes I will take your wives and give them to one who is close to you, and he will lie with your wives in broad daylight. 12 You did it in secret, but I will do this thing in broad daylight before all Israel.\u2019\u201d\nNathan replied, \u201cThe Lord has taken away your sin. You are not going to die. 14 But because by doing this you have made the enemies of the Lord show utter contempt, the son born to you will die.\u201d\n15 After Nathan had gone home, the Lord struck the child that Uriah\u2019s wife had borne to David, and he became ill. 16 David pleaded with God for the child. He fasted and went into his house and spent the nights lying on the ground. 17 The elders of his household stood beside him to get him up from the ground, but he refused, and he would not eat any food with them.\n18 On the seventh day the child died. David\u2019s servants were afraid to tell him that the child was dead, for they thought, \u201cWhile the child was still living, we spoke to David but he would not listen to us. How can we tell him the child is dead? He may do something desperate.\u201d\n19 David noticed that his servants were whispering among themselves and he realized the child was dead. \u201cIs the child dead?\u201d he asked.\n\u201cYes,\u201d they replied, \u201che is dead.\u201d\n20 Then David got up from the ground. After he had washed, put on lotions and changed his clothes, he went into the house of the Lord and worshiped. Then he went to his own house, and at his request they served him food, and he ate.\n21 His servants asked him, \u201cWhy are you acting this way? While the child was alive, you fasted and wept, but now that the child is dead, you get up and eat!\u201d\n22 He answered, \u201cWhile the child was still alive, I fasted and wept. I thought, \u2018Who knows? The Lord may be gracious to me and let the child live.\u2019 23 But now that he is dead, why should I fast? Can I bring him back again? I will go to him, but he will not return to me.\u201d\nWhile not a crystal-clear teaching, verse 23 is often used to support the position that children who die young do go to Heaven. My wife and I went through five miscarriages, so I\u2019m fairly sure I\u2019ll meet all of those children in Heaven one day.\n24 Then David comforted his wife Bathsheba, and he went to her and lay with her. She gave birth to a son, and they named him Solomon. The Lord loved him; 25 and because the Lord loved him, he sent word through Nathan the prophet to name him Jedidiah.\n26 Meanwhile Joab fought against Rabbah of the Ammonites and captured the royal citadel. 27 Joab then sent messengers to David, saying, \u201cI have fought against Rabbah and taken its water supply. 28 Now muster the rest of the troops and besiege the city and capture it. Otherwise I will take the city, and it will be named after me.\u201d\n29 So David mustered the entire army and went to Rabbah, and attacked and captured it. 30 He took the crown from the head of their king\u2014its weight was a talent of gold, and it was set with precious stones\u2014and it was placed on David\u2019s head. He took a great quantity of plunder from the city 31 and brought out the people who were there, consigning them to labor with saws and with iron picks and axes, and he made them work at brickmaking. He did this to all the Ammonite towns. Then David and his entire army returned to Jerusalem.",

        "raw_content": "Healthy lifestyle may cut stroke risk in half for women\nMINNEAPOLIS - Women with a healthy diet and lifestyle may be less likely to have a stroke by more than half, according to a study published in the October 8, 2014, online issue of Neurology\u00ae, the medical journal of the American Academy of Neurology.\nThe study looked at five factors that make up a healthy lifestyle: healthy diet; moderate alcohol consumption; never smoking; physically active; and healthy body mass index (BMI). Compared with women with none of the five healthy factors, women with all five factors had a 54-percent lower risk of stroke.\n\"Because the consequences of stroke are usually devastating and irreversible, prevention is of great importance,\" said study author Susanna C. Larsson, PhD, of the Karolinska Instituet in Stockholm, Sweden. \"These results are exciting because they indicate that a healthy diet and lifestyle can substantially reduce the risk of stroke, and these are lifestyle choices that people can make or improve.\"\nFor the study, 31,696 Swedish women with an average age of about 60 completed a 350-item questionnaire about their diet and lifestyle. They were then followed for an average of 10 years. A healthy diet was defined as within the top 50 percent of a recommended food score measuring how often the participants ate healthy foods such as fruits, vegetables and low-fat dairy products. Moderate alcohol consumption was defined as three to nine drinks per week. Physically active was defined as walking or biking at least 40 minutes a day along with more vigorous exercise at least one hour per week. Healthy BMI was considered below 25.\nMost of the women had two or three of the healthy factors. Only 589 women had all five healthy factors, and 1,535 had none.\nThere were 1,554 strokes among study participants. The risk of stroke steadily decreased with each additional healthy lifestyle factor.\nWomen who had a healthier diet were 13 percent less likely to have a type of stroke called a cerebral infarction than those whose diet was not as healthy. Women with healthier diets had a rate of 28 strokes per 10,000 women per year compared to 43 strokes per 10,000 women per year among those with a less healthy diet.\nCerebral infarction is the most common cause of stroke, accounting for up to 80 to 85 percent of all strokes. Cerebral infarction is caused by a blockage in a blood vessel preventing blood and oxygen from getting to an area of the brain.\nThere was no relationship between the healthy factors and the risk of hemorrhagic stroke. Hemorrhagic stroke, which is caused by bleeding in and around the brain, accounts for about 15 to 20 percent of all strokes.\nThe study was supported by the Swedish Research Council for Health, Working Life and Welfare (Forte) and the Swedish Research Council.\nTo learn more about stroke, please visit http://www.aan.com/patients.",

        "title": "D-DAY FOR THE AGE PENSION | Everald Compton",
        "raw_content": "\u2190 EVERALD\u2019s ELECTION EDICT\nDEATH OF MAJORITY GOVERNMENTS \u2192\nD-DAY FOR THE AGE PENSION\nIt is an indisputable fact that pensioners in Australia have been underpaid for more than a century. Nevertheless, little mention of it is being made in the Australian Election of 2016. In truth, there is a defining silence surrounding it for reasons that totally escape me.\nBe this as it may, the time has come to correct this huge blot on the humanitarian record of our nation, particularly as a UN Report has stated that 50% of Australian Pensioners live on or below the poverty line. This is intolerable in a prosperous nation.\nA fact of history is that when Deakin and Fisher made a bipartisan decision to establish an Age Pension in 1908, it was an historic moment in the history of Australia. But, the determining of the amount was a political decision based solely on what the Government could afford to pay at the time, not what eligible pensioners needed. Still, it was a step forward after the 130 years without a pension since the arrival of the First Fleet.\nSince then, every decision to raise or lower the pension has been made largely on political grounds, although the Treasury now has several indices on which they recommend pension calculations. But, all of these are based on related economics, not what a pensioner actually spends.\nEven when Wayne Swan and I negotiated the largest pension rise in the history of Australia a few years back, we had to base it on what the Budget could afford and what the politics of the day could accommodate. Thankfully, we at least got recognition that the pension needed significant attention.\nSo, after 108 years of politics, its time to get the pension right.\nIn order to get it on the right footing, a study is needed to of what the day by day expenditure of a pensioner actually is, plus the lump sum items of necessity that must be paid during any year. The aim will be to place their pension permanently above the poverty line, but also give Older Australians a justifiable quality of life.\nI am pleased to be involved in a partnership of the Longevity Innovation Hub with Australia\u2019s oldest charity, The Benevolent Society, in getting this Pension Adequacy Study under way even though this is difficult while there is an election happening.\nActually, I would love to finish the Study before July 2 and drop the results into the public arena during the last week of the election campaign so as to get the undivided attention of all politicians as they struggle desperately for power. But, this won\u2019t happen as we would have to rush our research and sacrifice accuracy. This would not achieve the long term result that we need.\nWhat we are doing at the moment is conducting a number of focus groups among carefully selected pensioners in city and country to get their personal experiences of surviving life on the Age Pension. We are also studying many thoughtful reports that have been done by responsible people in recent years on what they believe is right or wrong with the Pension after studying the many social and economic pressures of Ageing.\nThen, we will share our preliminary findings with people who head significant ageing organisations to get their critical comments before we go into final drafting.\nWe reckon that we can launch our findings to politicians and bureaucrats by September and then begin a relentless round of negotiations until they are adopted. This will be the greatest task of all, but it is one from which we will not flinch.\nI reckon that our chances are good as I expect that we will have a Hung Parliament after 2 July and this brings our best chance to get a consensus. Majority Governments are usually arrogant and have great expertise in making sure that Reports that require hard decisions are put somewhere that cobwebs will cover them quickly.\nI expect that if our report recommends that a significant pension rise is needed, we will propose that it be achieved over a number of years of careful Budget planning as gradualism is the cornerstone of sound government.\nLet\u2019s get it right once and for all.\nIt\u2019s time for good people to stand up for economic and social justice for pensioners. We must not put a blind eye to a difficult economic decision that will impact on the life of the nation is so many good ways in years to come.\nCan I recommend that you read my book on Nation Building \u201cThe Man on the Twenty Dollar Notes\u201d? You can find a link to an order form on my website http://www.everaldcompton.com\nIf you would like to receive an email telling you of my new Posts, just register you email address as indicated opposite.\nThis entry was posted in Ageing, Elections, Government, History, Seniors and tagged Age Pension, Budget, Deakin, Election, Fisher. Bookmark the permalink.\n4 Responses to D-DAY FOR THE AGE PENSION\nEverald, I assume that you are referring to pensioners who do not own their own home and if so, I certainly agree that there is a case for a substantial increase and that affordable housing should be front and centre.\nHowever, if you are advocating for an overall increase, well I\u2019m sorry but I don\u2019t agree.\nMy wife and myself own our home and our sole source of income is the pension. I believe that we live a pretty good life, certainly not at the level prior to retiring, but we were well aware that our standard of living would take a hit.\nWe are both frugal, money savvy and even manage to save some.\nI would hope that your report includes educating people how to manage money in retirement, because there are many out there that don\u2019t have a clue.\nA thought provoking topic from you as asual! I am a pensioner but my wife is not of pension age yet and we barely manage on our income Like so many others of our generation, their is no paid work available for her age group and she does volunteer work so that she can get the Newstart allowance each fortnight. We are fortunate that we own our home and certainly would not be able to manage paying rent or a mortgage. Due to the high cost and the continued over the top premium hikes, we will soon have to reconsider whether we can continue with it. Just another thing that seems to be out of the control of our Government!\nI just read your book on Flynn Of The Inland \u2013 congratulations on doing a great Australian proud \u2013 I am donating my copy to the local library so that others may share your book.\ncmkentau says:\nI hope you have included some pensioners who do not own their own homes. Non home owners cannot even afford a room in someone else\u2019s house on the age pension. This is my response. I am not currently making much progress on this front as I need a stable roof over my head to actually get stuck into developing the idea. There are tenancy laws that preclude the possibility of this scheme actually operating within the law which is making it too hard to develop at the moment. House-sitting is our only other viable option, and that keeps us moving and unable to get localised ideas off the ground. Only once we get too sick to keep moving on AND are living in a car, can we get government or other charity housing. Housing affordability is THE key issue for many of us. http://quirkynation.blogspot.com.au/\nHello Everald,WHY when Seniors are about 47% of Vote Count, ARE we so quiet?? IT MUST NOT just be UP TO YOU ..Behaving like GOOD CHILDREN..NO WAY!!",

        "raw_content": "EVENT: 3 Big Thinkers Discuss God, Science, and the Universe\nGod, Science and the Universe: A Dialogue at the University of Toronto on Saturday, March 19, 7-9pm EDT.\nThree big thinkers, well-known in their various fields, will be together for the first time on the stage at the University of Toronto\u2019s Convocation Hall discussing God, science and the universe:\nLawrence M. Krauss World-renowned Theoretical Physicist\nStephen C. Meyer Cambridge educated author and intelligent design advocate\nDenis O. Lamoureux Science and Religion professor and evolutionary creationist\nQuestions like these will be posed to the panel:\nHow did the universe originate?\nDoes God play any role in the cosmos?\nWhat is the relationship between science and religion?\nIndividuals can see the live streaming directly on YouTube. Just open this link at the time of the event and no sign-in or other link is needed.\nLife is not a random phenomenon; it is subject to the laws of quantum information biology (QIB). QIB is a generalized physics hypothesis, it is a set of physical properties and laws that distinguish life from nonlife, irreducible to ordinary physics, and admit limiting transition to quantum mechanics. In other words, biology, or some aspects of it, is generalized physics. QIB bridges the gap between physics and biology and reveals the fundamental laws that describe biotic evolution and development:\nThe question whether these laws are self sufficient or created by god is a matter of subjective belief.\nDoug\tsays:\nHi Perry \u2013\nI have not seen a video of the Krauss / Meyer / Lamoureux debate yet, but I had a quick look at some of the posts on \u201cENV\u201d (the ID blog \u201cEvolution News and Views\u201d). Sounds like Meyer was incapacitated by a migrane headache, so the debate ended up being quite different to (and not as good as) planned. Have you had a look at the blog posts on ENV yet? Any comments in response? And do you plan to make any comments on ENV in addition to what you say on your own blog? Among other things, that might give you a higher profile compared to if you confine your comments to your own blog.\nAt the moment I don\u2019t have time to write a piece for ENV and I don\u2019t know if they would accept it. Thanks for your remarks.\nI was a bit disappointed in this debate, largely because of the audio visual and health problems of Dr. Meyer, which really dragged down what could have been a lively conversation.\nDr. Lamoureux appeared to be what has been called a \u201cTheist Evolutionist\u201d. He clearly accepts both evolution and God, but I could not get a read on his scientific ideas otherwise. He hinted at both Lamarckian evolution and materialistic evolution arguments while proclaiming the inspired word of the Bible in every other breath. He seemed to most strongly argue against Meyer, not Krauss.\nKrauss was the classic New Atheist Materialist attack dog. He went straight for the jugular attacking religion, the Bible and ID. Unlike Meyer, he was cocky, confident and well rehearsed. He drew the most applause from his attacks on ID, all the while insisting science had answered all questions but he didn\u2019t have time to explain any of it. Although I disagreed with every bit of his \u201cscientific\u201d claims, I thought he won the debate.\nMeyer was a mess. He could barely speak, couldn\u2019t see and was agonizing to watch. He had some great points but was excruciatingly incapable of expressing them in an effective way. It isn\u2019t his fault he had health problems, but it did bog down the flow.\nOh well. It was still more enlightening than Nye versus Hamm. It just could have been better. Thanks for the link to it.\n\u00ab Evolution of Evolution\nIs Evolution Biblical? \u00bb",

        "raw_content": "Anastasia (Anastasiya) Pavlyuchenkova. Professional Tennis player\nGreat Russian women - Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova, WTA tour, Grand Slam champion\nAnastasia (Anastasiya) Sergeyevna Pavlyuchenkova is a Russian professional tennis player and a multiple junior Grand Slam champion. She is also a highest-ranked teenager in the world. Pavlyuchenkova has her career -high rank of World No. 13, achieved on 4 July 2011.\nAnastasia Pavlyuchenkova was born on 3 July 1991 in Samara, Russia. Her grandmother was in the Soviet national basketball team, a father in the national canoeing team, and a mother swam at a competitive level. She started playing at the age of 6. From July 2007 to September 2009 she was coached at the Mouratoglou Tennis Academy in France. Since then she has been coached by her brother Aleksandr Pavlyuchenkov.\nSome of the highlights of her tennis career are as follows:\nAt the age of 15 Pavlyuchenkova won her first junior title at 2006 Australian Open by defeating Caroline Wozniacki. She then won the US Open junior title against Tamira Paszek and defended her Australian Open title in 2007, defeating Madison Brengle. Anastasia played for the Sacramento Capitals of the World Team Tennis league in the summer of 2006. She moved from 281st at the end of 2007 to 45th at the end of 2008, reaching two quarterfinals, as well as the third round of Wimbledon and the second round of both the French and US Opens. Pavlyuchenkova made her Top 100 debut on July 7 after Wimbledon, surging from No. 137 to No. 92. She made her top 50 debut and also won her first Tour doubles title.\nIn 2009, she finished the year 39th and reached her first Tour singles semifinal (Indian Wells), defeating No. 2 seed Jelena Jankovic in the process. She reached the third round at the French Open.\nIn March of 2010, she won her first Tour singles title (Monterrey) and reached the third round of Wimbledon again, falling to Caroline Wozniacki. Pavlyuchenkova won her second WTA Tour singles title at the 2010 Istanbul Cup by defeating Elena Vesnina in the final. At the 2010 US Open, Pavlyuchenkova posted her best Grand Slam result to-date, reaching the round of 16. There she lost to French Open champion Francesca Schiavone 6-3, 6-0.\nIn 2011 she reached the quarterfinals at the 2011 Australian Open, defended her title at the 2011 Monterrey Open, defeating Jelena Jankovic 2-6, 6-2, 6-3. She would reach the third round of the 2011 BNP Paribas Open, losing to 10th seed Shahar Peer. That was followed by a 4th round loss to 8th seed and eventual champion Victoria Azarenka in three sets at the 2011 Sony Ericsson Open in Miami. Pavlyuchenkova was the 14th seed at the 2011 French Open and reached her first ever Grand Slam quarterfinal, losing in three sets to #5 seed and defending champion Francesca Schiavone. At the 2011 Wimbledon Championships, Pavlyuchenkova was beaten in the second round 6-3, 6-3, by Nadia Petrova. Anastasia next played at the 2011 Baku Cup where she lost in the quarterfinals to Galina Voskoboeva 6-7, 6-3, 6-4;\nAfter defeating Anna Tatishvili, Petra Martic and former world number one Jelena Jankovic at the 2011 US Open, Pavlyuchenkova advanced to her second grand slam quarter final of the year after a 5-7,6-3,6-4 victory over seventh seed Francesca Schiavone.",

Photo Twitter\n\u201cI am a product of this country,\u201d 38-year-old Knesset member Ksenia Svetlova exclaims proudly, \u201cI have been living here for 25 years.\u201d A Russian-born immigrant to Israel, she studied Middle Eastern History at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem and went on to become a respected Arab affairs correspondent for a number of international media. She speaks four languages and is currently completing a doctorate. Her decision to enter politics, as a member of the Zionist Union party, was the \u201cintolerable\u201d diplomatic and socioeconomic situation in the country. \u201cThe time came for me to roll up my sleeves and try to improve the situation from the inside.\u201d Listed in 21st place, she found herself in the Knesset when the party won 24 seats in the March 2015 elections.\nSvetlova\u2019s story is an amalgamation of parcels of history of Jewish immigration to Israel. Israel comprises many immigrant communities, yet her story stands out for its remarkable achievements. She explains that her mother decided to move to Israel when she was 14, feeling \u201csomething bad would happen in Russia\u201d. She alludes to the fact that they were Jewish. They immigrated to Israel to reach their motherland. \u201cYou always lose something when you leave a place,\u201d she says of her native Moscow.\nA leftist and a reformist, Svetlova is considered a \u2018rare breed\u2019 of a politician at a time when being in the opposition is not easy. Yet she has remained true to her instincts. She opposes religious coercion and endorses progressive denominations of Judaism. She does not subscribe to the non-egalitarian nature of Jewish orthodoxy in Israel, and believes that people should be able to choose a pluralistic form of religion. This outlook evolved after she was refused a divorce for two years by the Chief Rabbinate. In Jewish religious law, a husband must present his wife with a \u201cget\u201d (divorce) document to effect the divorce, a system perceived by some as favouring men and being open to abuse. \u201cI am trying to raise awareness of how intolerant the religious parties can be towards those different from them.\u201d\n\u201cWe cannot give up. It is not easy to be in the opposition but I am an optimist. Today, we have more hate for the other than we have love for ourselves,\u201d she says of the current climate of racism and xenophobia.\nShe recently returned from a J Street conference in Washington DC. \u201cIt was the highlight of my trip,\u201d she says of the annual event organized by the US-based lobby group that seeks to end the Israeli-Arab conflict through diplomatic means. \u201cAlthough in 2015 there was gloom at the J Street conference after the Zionist Union, a centre-left party, lost the elections, our position has not changed.\u201d She stresses the shared values between her party and J Street. \u201cI have no magic solution,\u201d she says honestly about the ongoing conflict, \u201cbut hope comes out of despair.\u201d She supports the two-state solution and regional discussion towards peace with all of Israel\u2019s Arab neighbours.\nHer decision to study Arabic at university stems in part from the fact that her father was an art historian and she was impressed in her youth by Islamic architecture and the art of Ancient Egypt. \u201cHow can we live in a region and not understand the language which is spoken there?\u201d she wonders, incredulously. \u201cWe must try to learn history and not just through the eyes of the conflict.\u201d\nAs a mother of six-year-old twins, she ponders what type of country she is leaving for her daughters. She hopes that they will be able to live in Israel and not be \u201cforced to leave in 20 years\u2019 time. We should not lose our humanity or empathy due to the conflict. We should not forget who we are.\u201d\nShe continues: \u201cIsrael is in free fall. Look at who our allies are today: Saudi Arabia and Russia.\u201d She believes Israel should draw inspiration from more democratic allies. She recognizes that no country is perfect but believes there is a lot to fix in Israel. One thing is certain, she and her regional parliamentarians have their work cut out for them.\nAfrica - Education - Egypt - Israel - Jerusalem - Media - MiddleEast - NorthAfrica - Palestine - Population - Religion - USA",

        "raw_content": "Montague \u201cMonte\u201d Middleton Upshaw\nMontague \u201cMonte\u201d Middleton Upshaw, former chairman of Fidelity Roof Company, passed away due to complications from Parkinson\u2019s Disease on July 26, 2017. He is survived by his wife Joan, his previous wife, Carol, and their four children, a brother, and 13 grandchildren.\nMonte took over the management of Fidelity Roof Company (FRC) in the 1960s, following the untimely death of his father. He grew the business into a premiere roofing company that gained local and national recognition.\n\u201cIt is unmeasurable to quantify how many people started or enhanced their careers at Fidelity Roof Company,\u201d says Steve Cadet, a FRC colleague and personal friend of Monte\u2019s for over 40 years. \u201cBay Area roofing companies are filled with numerous individuals who had the opportunity to take advantage of the roofing template that existed at FRC. Also, Monte was one of the first in the industry to hire women roofers, many who continued their careers beyond their initial experiences at FRC.\u201d\nMonte held prominent leadership roles for numerous roofing industry groups and civic associations including: the Union and Merit Contractors; National Roofing Contractors Association (NRCA); Boys & Girls Clubs of Oakland; East Bay Community Foundation; Claremont Country Club; Cal Alumni Association; and the Cal \u201cBig C\u201d Society.\nMonte was a graduate of Piedmont High School where he was student body president, and an incredible, world-class interscholastic track star in the long-jump, high and low hurdles, and mile relay, as well as a stellar prep football wide receiver. During his junior and senior years he was named the Northern California Prep of the Year and was featured in the San Francisco Chronicle and Oakland Tribune.\nOther outstanding athletic accomplishments Monte achieved during his high school years included: tying a national record of 18.8 in the 180 high hurdles, and a world-record-breaking long jump of 25\u20194-1/2, a record that was previously held by Olympic great Jessie Owens, and placed Monte as the fifth ranking long jumper in the world.\nMonte\u2019s athletic accomplishments continued at UC Berkeley, where he studied business and political science and continued in track and field despite a knee injury that dashed his hopes of participating in the 1956 Rome Olympics. With his teammates, he achieved a world record in the sprint relay. Monte was inducted into the UC Sports Hall of Fame in 2007.\nAlso, while at CAL, Monte was in ROTC and received his U.S. Army Commission as a Second Lieutenant in the reserves as a paratrooper. He completed his reserve service at Ft. Benning, Georgia before returning to the Bay Area to manage FRC, and help his mother raise his two younger siblings.\nMonte\u2019s enthusiasm, optimism, and concern for others will always be cherished and greatly missed. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in his name to the Boys & Girls Clubs of Oakland, the Cal \u201cBig C\u201d Society, or a charity of your choice.\nA celebration of life, with reception to follow, will be held at Claremont County Club, on Sunday, September 10 at 3:00 p.m. Monte\u2019s family looks forward to greeting his many friends and sharing fond remembrances of this wonderful, kind, and loving man.",

        "raw_content": "The fact is we need Social Security\nBy Tammi Fisher // Feb 1, 2019\nFor the first time in history, more folks receive Social Security benefits than pay into the program. This means the cliff we feared and failed to address is here, and we are staring down the barrel of the Social Security program\u2019s demise. Social Security is no longer a reliable safety net for my generation and those born after me. My generation is one of the first where pensions are largely unavailable to sustain a secure baseline financial future and we are left to our own savings for retirement. But anyone who thinks that a 401k is the answer to a satisfying retirement is fooling themselves; 401ks are subject to stock market fluctuation, and even if you save $1 million, that\u2019s the equivalent of about $40,000 annually you can safely withdraw.\nIncome taxes, property taxes and health care will eat a large chunk of those funds, leaving many \u201cmillionaires\u201d impoverished in retirement. The fact is we need Social Security. There are several options available to fix the Social Security program including: taxing income regardless of the amount earned (currently Social Security tax is only paid on incomes up to $132,900 and then ceases), increasing the recipient age for folks born after 1970 to 70 (since we are supposed to live into our 90s anyway), and allowing for a paid family leave component to be incorporated into the program to encourage the young to procreate responsibly, which adds more payers for long term stability.\nOur nation\u2019s debt surpassed $21 trillion with no downward adjustment on the horizon. Government continues to spend more than it receives in revenues. I know a few folks who chose to max out their credit cards in preparation for bankruptcy. That way, they could buy everything they wanted now, knowing they would not owe the debt in bankruptcy as the government forced creditors to forgive the debt if their income could not cover the debt payments. I also know folks who spend tax refunds on brand new big screen TVs rather than past due rent or mortgages. I have always been bothered by this approach to bankruptcy and consumerism, but I can see that the logic may follow \u201cif the government does it why shouldn\u2019t I?\u201d The reality is however, the government can\u2019t bail itself out when it has maxed out its credit; China isn\u2019t going to forgive the debt.\nWith Democrats holding the House and Republicans holding the Senate, finding bipartisan issues to resolve is a far better alternative to gridlock. Since neither party wants to be responsible for elders starving in the streets, perhaps instead of focusing on hating/defending President Donald Trump, reelection prospects, and party power plays, the focus should be on resolving issues lethal to America.\nTammi Fisher is an attorney and former mayor of Kalispell.",

        "title": "Using Prayer to connect with Flower Spirits | Wildflower Spirit Journeys",
        "raw_content": "One of the easiest ways to call on a flower spirit for help is to use prayer. Prayers are requests stated in the form of words, whether spoken silently in the privacy of your own mind, or out loud. Spiritual people often refer to prayer using terms such as \u2018statements of intent\u2019, \u2018affirmations\u2019 or \u2018invocations\u2019. This technique uses a combination of clairaudience (psychic hearing) and claircognisance (psychic knowing or faith), so practising it will strengthen your clairaudient and claircognisant abilities. You can learn more about psychic abilities on my primary website, on the \u2018Psychic Perception\u2019 page.\nIf you haven\u2019t already selected a flower spirit to work with, go to the Choosing a Flower Spirit Helper page for ideas on how to go about this. This page also includes a description of \u2018Centring\u2019, a psychic self-care technique that helps us find our calm peaceful place within. This is always a really helpful exercise to do before connecting with Spirit. Afterwards, it helps to ground yourself back into a normal waking conscious state. Grounding is described at the bottom of this page.\nUsing the power of prayer to connect with flower spirits\nFocus on the flower and talk to it, using the image on the page to create a connection with the spirit of the flower. Do this in the same way you would talk to an angel or a spirit guide. When I\u2019m talking to Spirits, I usually start by saying hello. Sometimes I express my gratitude for their presence in my life, or talk about things I am worried about. Then I ask for help. Here are some examples:\n\u201cHello beautiful flower! Thank you for being with me.

        "raw_content": "Is Your Dog\u2019s In-Flight Safety Worth $50?\nHow much would you pay to know your pet will safely arrive from point A to point B? Delta hopes the answer is $50. Actually, Delta hopes the answer is $250 because it\u2019ll cost you $200 to check your pet as luggage and another $50 to use the new pet tracking devices that they\u2019re introducing tomorrow.\nAccording to Bloomberg, Delta has teamed up with a tracking sensor company to allow pet owners to be in contact with their pet\u2019s data (crate temperature, location, etc.) for the duration of the flight portion of the flight where cellular data can be used. Not exactly a great value for your $50, considering the device is unusable for the majority of every flight, but if you\u2019re someone who likes to track Fido as he is loaded onto and off an airplane, this service is for you.\nThe article also notes that United is exploring a similar service, so this whole pet tracking thing may turn out to be a full-blown aviation trend. Sadly, pets are killed every year in the cargo holds of airplanes and on the ground if they escape. This service isn\u2019t meant as a reaction to that fact, but Delta hopes it\u2019ll ease the mind of its pet-owning passengers.\nQuite honestly, I don\u2019t fully understand this. If you\u2019re already paying $200 for the animal to be on-board the flight, Delta should make as much of a commitment to your pet\u2019s safety as it makes to you. By adding on a $50 fee to check out the position of your pet\u2019s cage while on the ground, they just seem opportunistic to me. It reminds me of Uber\u2019s $1 safe ride fee. Um, shouldn\u2019t that just be part of the plan? Can I opt-out of the $1 fee if I like danger? At least this $50 pet monitoring fee is voluntary. I\u2019m just not sure who\u2019s going to volunteer to partake in it.\nAs of 4/1, the new GPS pet monitoring service will be available in ten markets around the US. Will you be one of the people using this service? Justify your pet love in the comments (ed. note: link may be NSFW if you consider Madonna music videos as such). Or just post descriptions of the cutest thing your pet did today. You can do whatever you\u2019d like.\nmy dogs are like my kids. I would not put my kids in the cargo hold so my dogs aren\u2019t going in the cargo hold either. If they can\u2019t fly in the cabin with me I\u2019m not going to be flying\n. I\u2019d be in the car driving cross. Country.\nso pay an extra $50 to increase the changes the airline will do its job properly ?\nThat\u2019s pretty much what it sounds like, Mike. Worth it?",

        "title": "Vapor intrusion: Dangers, the EPA and potential liabilities - FMLink",
        "raw_content": "Vapor intrusion: Dangers, the EPA and potential liabilities\nby Wesley Robb \u2014 This article originally appeared in the May/June 2018 issue of FMJ\nAs more information is collected about the health effects of vapor intrusion, facility managers are beginning to take notice. Vapor intrusion is the potentially harmful migration of chemical vapors into a building from soil and groundwater that has been contaminated by volatile and semi-volatile organic compounds, and some inorganic analytes.\nDry cleaning solvents and industrial degreasers are examples of volatile organic chemicals. Naphthalene is an example of semi-volatile organic chemicals, and radon would be an example of an inorganic chemical. The vapor intrusion of these chemicals cannot be detected by sight or smell, making it even more critical to be aware of the issue. Facility managers need to be confident that those working and occupying the building are breathing safe, clean air, and they need to do their best to avoid any kind of financial responsibility attached to any deviation of this.\nBy allowing individuals to work and occupy space where vapor intrusion may be occurring, those in charge of operating the facility could be opening themselves up to lawsuits. Class action lawsuits have been settled for up to US$8 million in the United States. In 2008, residents and business owners in the state of New York filed a lawsuit against IBM claiming US$100 million in damages. The town\u2019s residents alleged the soil and groundwater were contaminated as a result of IBM\u2019s former microelectronics plant. Microelectronics manufacturing facilities are known to have used chlorinated solvents such as Trichloroethylene (TCE) in their circuit board and microprocessor chip wafer production processes. IBM went on to install vapor mitigation systems in more than 300 homes. The case was ultimately settled, but no details were disclosed.\nRisks from vapor intrusion\nIn a very similar way to how radon gas can affect a building\u2019s inhabitable zone, so can vapor intrusion. In fact indoor air radon gas contamination is a specialized form of vapor intrusion, since the radon gas enters a building by the same mechanisms that a contaminated solvent or petroleum vapor would. The only difference is the radon gas is a natural consequence of the type of granite rock in bedrock below a building.\nWhat is the difference between a vapor and a moisture barrier?\nVapor barriers are often confused with moisture barriers. They are two different types of products with two very different purposes.\nMoisture barriers are designed to keep water in its liquid form from entering a building enclosure. It also keeps water from building up behind walls and under slabs to prevent the growth of mold.\nAlternatively, a vapor barrier is part of a complete vapor mitigation system to prevent vapor intrusion. A vapor barrier blocks vapors from entering the breathing zone of a building.\nRisk of vapor intrusion varies from one location to another due to their proximity to specific establishments which, currently or in the past, conducted operations that could have potentially contaminated the soil or groundwater. Other than Radon, the types of chemicals that are most associated with the phenomenon are volatile organic compounds, petroleum hydrocarbons and semi-volatile organic compounds. Hence, any existing development, or any development of property being considered near establishments that have used these chemicals should be assessed for the potential of vapor intrusion.\nThe EPA\u2019s Hazard Ranking System and vapor intrusion\nNews and information regarding the effects of vapor intrusion continue to be released. These public statements and action taken by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to mitigate the issue have served to heighten awareness of vapor intrusion as an issue to real estate transfer and development.\nRecently, the EPA included vapor intrusion as a potential pathway in its Superfund Program. This has led to even more people in the industry learning about vapor intrusion and its potentially harmful effects. Furthermore, the EPA added a subsurface intrusion component to the Hazard Ranking System (HRS) on December 7, 2016.\nThe HRS is the principal mechanism the EPA uses to place sites on the National Priorities List. The addition of the subsurface intrusion component to the HRS meets the congressional mandate in Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 (CERCLA) to identify releases of hazardous substances at sites that warrant further investigation. The EPA defines subsurface intrusion as the migration of hazardous substances and pollutants from the unsaturated zone and/or the surficial ground water into overlying structures.\nThe EPA states1 that Section 121 of CERCLA, as amended by the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act of 1986 (SARA), requires that remedial actions which result in any hazardous substances, pollutants or contaminants remaining at the site be re-evaluated every five years to determine if the remedy is, and will continue to be, protective of human health and the environment.\nOSWER Directive 9200.2-84 provides the recommended framework for assessing vapor intrusion in the context of the Superfund five-year review process \u2013 Assessing Protectiveness at Sites for Vapor Intrusion.\nAccording to the EPA, Trichloroethylene is a widely used industrial chemical frequently found at Superfund sites as a contaminant in soil and groundwater. Furthermore, the EPA goes on to say that scientific evidence indicates Trichloroethylene poses potential cancer and non-cancer human health hazards. This has led to the EPA asking for more community and stakeholder involvement concerning the issue. As one example of a health hazard, the EPA has identified the risk of heart malformations to developing fetuses of women only seven weeks pregnant who have been exposed even to very low levels of TCE in indoor air.\nWhat can facility managers do to mitigate vapor intrusion?\nConsciousness of the issue is the first real barrier to overcome. By knowing that vapor intrusion is a potential concern for a facility, managers are able to take the necessary steps to mitigate the issue and do their best to avoid unnecessary future litigation. If the history of a facility\u2019s site or surrounding areas make it a candidate for potential vapor intrusion, or if a manager is unsure of a site\u2019s history and just wants to be safe, then the first step is to hire an environmental professional to conduct a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment and, if indicated, follow up with appropriate sampling and analysis.\nWhen installing a vapor mitigation system before a structure is built, there are different options on the table. These are generally constructed in one of these three manners: a vapor barrier only installation, a passive or active sub-slab depressurization system (SSDS), similar to radon mitigation installation, or a combination system with a vapor barrier installed above an SSDS. These all allow the dangerous chemical vapors to be directed away from a building\u2019s habitable zone.\nThe system chosen will depend on a number of factors such as specified construction requirements, type of chemical contaminants of concern and the prevalence of them in the soil, groundwater or soil vapor below the proposed building. An increasing number of construction projects are occurring on properties which necessitate the consideration of one of these types of vapor mitigation systems. But what if a building was constructed on a potentially dangerous site before vapor intrusion risks were on anyone\u2019s mind?\nRetrofitting a facility to mitigate the risk of vapor intrusion must be handled in a different way. If it\u2019s determined by an assessment that vapor intrusion is a risk for a facility after it has already been constructed, options are limited. One of the most effective approaches is to apply a specially engineered sealant product to the basement floor and walls of the structure. This sealant is specifically designed to repel the sub-slab vapor that is trying to make its way into the structure. This approach has proven to be very effective, significantly reducing the amount of dangerous chemical vapors from intruding into the structure. Facility managers are leaning toward this option more often because the barrier itself doubles as a finished floor surface. Furthermore, it is an applied sealant, so there is no turning it \u201con\u201d and \u201coff.\u201d It is always working.\nIf facility managers know vapor intrusion could be a potential issue for their facility, they should reach out to an environmental consulting company that is qualified to perform the necessary assessments, sampling and analysis, data interpretation and system design required to protect indoor air quality.\n1www.epa.gov/vaporintrusion/vapor-intrusion-superfund-sites\nWesley Robb is the director of technical strategies and applications of Vapor Mitigation Strategies and has more than 29 years of environmental field and laboratory experience, including several years of soil vapor sampling and analyses.

        "raw_content": "14th AmendmentAbortionArticlesConstitutionHomosexualityPoliticsState's Rights\nJudicial Abuse of the 14th Amendment: Abortion, Sexual Orientation & Homosexual \"Marriage\"\nPublius Huldah \u2014 February 8, 2013\nIn the January 2011 edition of the California Lawyer, Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia correctly says the 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution does not apply to sex discrimination or sexual orientation cases. 1\nActivist federal judges, on the other hand, see the 14th Amendment as a blank check to legalize whatever conduct they happen to approve of, such as abortion, homosexuality, & gay marriage.\nBut these activist judges are destroying federalism by bringing about a massive transfer of power from The People and the States to their own black-robed selves.\nWhat Are the Enumerated Powers of the Federal Courts?\n1. \u201cJudicial Power\u201d refers to a court\u2019s power to hear and decide cases. Art. III, Sec. 2, cl. 1 enumerates the cases which federal courts are permitted to hear. They may hear only cases:\na) Arising under the Constitution, or the Laws of the United States, or Treaties made under the Authority of the United States [\u201cfederal question\u201d jurisdiction];\nb) Affecting Ambassadors, other public Ministers & Consuls; cases of admiralty & maritime Jurisdiction; or cases in which the U.S. is a Party [\u201cstatus of parties\u201d jurisdiction];\nc) Between several States; between a State & Citizens of another State; between Citizens of different States; between Citizens of the same State claiming Lands under Grants of different States;2 or between a State (or its Citizens) & foreign States, Citizens or Subjects 3 [\u201cdiversity\u201d jurisdiction].\nThese are the ONLY cases federal courts have permission to hear! Alexander Hamilton says in Federalist No. 83 (8th para):\n\u2026the judicial authority of the federal judicatures is declared by the Constitution to comprehend certain cases particularly specified. The expression of those cases marks the precise limits beyond which the federal courts cannot extend their jurisdiction, because the objects of their cognizance being enumerated, the specification would be nugatory if it did not exclude all ideas of more extensive authority. [emphasis added] 4\nIn Federalist No. 80, Hamilton comments on each of these enumerated objects of federal judicial authority. But here, we will consider only cases \u201carising under the Constitution\u201d, which, in the words of Hamilton [which I ask you to note most carefully],\n\u2026concern the execution of the provisions expressly contained in the articles of Union (2nd para) [emphasis added]\nAre Provisions About Abortion, Homosexuality, or Marriage \u201cExpressly Contained\u201d in the U.S. Constitution?\n2. Let us consider State Laws which made abortion or homosexual contacts to be crimes. Let us also consider the recent case, Perry v. Schwarzenegger, where federal District Court Judge Vaughn Walker ruled that Proposition 8, an Amendment approved by the People of California to their State Constitution, violates the \u201cdue process\u201d and \u201cequal protection\u201d clauses of the 14th Amendment. Proposition 8 says, \u201cOnly marriage between a man and a woman is valid or recognized in California\u201d.\nAre State Laws addressing abortion and homosexual contact proper objects of the judicial power of the federal courts? Are amendments to State Constitutions defining \u201cmarriage\u201d a proper object of the judicial power of the federal courts?\nAbove, I asked you to note most carefully Hamilton\u2019s statement in Federalist No. 80 (2nd para) that the judicial authority of federal courts extends to cases which \u201c\u2026concern the execution of the provisions expressly contained in the articles of Union\u201d.\nIs anything about abortion, homosexual contact, or marriage \u201cexpressly contained\u201d in the U.S. Constitution? No! Those words and concepts do not appear at all in the U.S. Constitution.\nIn the 3rd para of Federalist No. 80, Hamilton gives examples of cases \u201cwhich concern the execution of the provisions expressly contained in the articles of Union\u201d: If a State violates the provisions of Art. I, Sec. 10 which prohibit States from imposing duties on imported articles, or from issuing paper money, the federal courts have jurisdiction to overrule such infractions as are \u201cin manifest contravention of the articles of Union.\u201d\nDoes Art. I, Sec.10 Prohibit STATES from Making Laws about Abortion, Homosexuality & Marriage?\n3. Article I, Sec.10 enumerates the acts prohibited to the States. Does anything in Art. I, Sec.10 prohibit States from criminalizing abortion or homosexual contact, or restricting marriage to one man and one woman? No! No! and No! Consider also Hamilton\u2019s words in Federalist No. 32 (last para):\n\u2026 the rule that all authorities, of which the States are not explicitly divested in favor of the Union, remain with them in full vigor \u2026 is clearly admitted by the whole tenor of the instrument which contains the articles of the proposed Constitution. We there find that, notwithstanding the affirmative grants of general authorities, there has been the most pointed care in those cases where it was deemed improper that the like authorities should reside in the States, to insert negative clauses prohibiting the exercise of them by the States. The tenth section of the first article consists altogether of such provisions. This circumstance is a clear indication of the sense of the convention, and furnishes a rule of interpretation out of the body of the act, which justifies the position I have advanced and refutes every hypothesis to the contrary. [emphasis added]\nSo! Since the U.S. Constitution contains no grant of power over abortion, homosexuality, or marriage to the federal government; and since Art. I, Sec. 10 does not prohibit the exercise of authority over those objects to the States, authority over them remains with the STATES or the People! [See also the 10th Amendment to the same effect.]\nThe Original Intent of the 14th Amendment.\n4. Now, let us look at the 14th Amendment, which activist federal judges have seized upon to circumvent the FACT that the U.S. Constitution shows that jurisdiction over abortion, homosexual contact, and marriage is reserved by the States or the People.\nSection 1 of the 14th Amendment (ratified 1868) says:\nWhat does this mean? Harvard Professor Raoul Berger\u2019s meticulously documented book, Government by Judiciary: The Transformation of the Fourteenth Amendment, proves by means of thousands of quotes from the Congressional Debates, that the purpose of the 14th Amendment was to protect freed slaves from southern Black Codes which denied them basic rights of citizenship.\na) In Ch. 11 of his book, Prof. Berger shows the true meaning of the \u201cdue process\u201d clause of the 14th Amendment:\n\u201cDue process of law\u201d is a term with a \u201cprecise technical import\u201d going back to the Magna Charta. It means that a person\u2019s Life, Liberty or Property can\u2019t be taken away from him except by the judgment of his peers pursuant to a fair trial! Specifically, that freed slaves could not be punished except pursuant to the judgment of their peers after a fair trial where they could appear, cross-examine witnesses and put on a defense! \u201cLife\u201d meant \u201clife\u201d as opposed to being lynched; \u201cliberty\u201d meant being out of confinement instead of in confinement; & \u201cproperty\u201d meant the person\u2019s possessions.\nProfessor Berger points out [and I ask you to note it most carefully] that \u201cdue process of law\u201d refers only to trials - to judicial proceedings in courts of justice. It most manifestly does NOT involve judicial power to override Acts of a Legislature!\nb) In Ch.10, Prof. Berger shows the true meaning of the \u201cequal protection\u201d clause of the 14th Amendment:\n\u2026nor [shall any State] deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.\nProfessor Berger proves that this equal protection was limited to the rights enumerated in The Civil Rights Act of 1866. Section 1 of that Act says:\nBe it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America \u2026 That all persons born in the United States and not subject to any foreign power, excluding Indians not taxed, are hereby declared to be citizens of the United States; and such citizens, of every race and color, without regard to any previous condition of slavery or involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall have the same right, in every State and Territory in the United States, to make and enforce contracts, to sue, be parties, and give evidence, to inherit, purchase, lease, sell, hold, and convey real and personal property, and to full and equal benefit of all laws and proceedings for the security of person and property, as is enjoyed by white citizens, and shall be subject to like punishment, pains, and penalties, and to none other, any law, statute, ordinance, regulation, or custom, to the contrary notwithstanding. [emphasis added]\nThis 1866 Act secured to blacks the same right to contract, to hold property, and to sue, as whites enjoyed, and the equal benefit of all laws for security of person and property. \u201cPolitical rights\u201d were excluded [Remember, the 14th Amendment did not give freed slaves the right to vote]. But respecting the rights listed in the Act, States were now required to treat blacks the same as whites. THAT is what the \u201cequal protection\u201d clause in the 14th Amendment means.\nHow Federal Judges have Perverted the 14th Amendment.\n5. Activist federal judges have committed grievous offenses against the U.S. Constitution with their perversions of the 14th Amendment:\na) They have evaded the constitutional limits on their power to hear cases by fabricating individual \u201cconstitutional rights\u201d from the 14th Amendment so that they can then pretend that the cases \u201carise under the Constitution\u201d, thereby claiming \u201cfederal question\u201d jurisdiction!\nThus, in Roe v. Wade (1973), seven judges on the supreme Court said a\nright of privacy\u2026founded in the Fourteenth Amendment\u2019s concept of personal liberty and restrictions upon state action (p. 153)\nmakes unconstitutional a State Law making abortion a criminal offense! Those seven judges just made up a \u201cconstitutional privacy right\u201d which they said was in the 14th Amendment and which they said prohibits States from outlawing abortion!\nIn Lawrence v. Texas (2003), six judges on the supreme Court said a Texas Law criminalizing homosexual contact was unconstitutional because it violated practitioners\u2019\n\u2026right to liberty under the Due Process Clause (p.578)\u2026of the Fourteenth Amendment (pp. 564, 579).\nThose six judges just made up a \u201cconstitutional liberty right\u201d to have homosexual contact!\nIn Perry v. Schwarzenegger, Judge Walker asserted that \u201cGender no longer forms an essential part of marriage\u201d (Opinion p.113); and determined that the \u201cdue process\u201d clause of the 14th Amendment contains a \u201cfundamental right\u201d to marry persons of the same sex (p.114, etc)!\nHe just made up a 14th Amendment \u201cdue process right\u201d to marry persons of the same sex!\nBut abortion, homosexual contact, & marriage are not provisions expressly contained in the U.S. Constitution. So the federal courts have no \u201cfederal question\u201d [or \"status of the parties\" or \"diversity\"] jurisdiction to hear these cases!\nb) They have evaded the constitutional limits on their powers by redefining 5 the \u201cdue process\u201d clause of the 14th Amendment from its original meaning of ensuring that freed slaves got fair trials before they could be deprived of life, liberty or property, to seizing power to nullify State Laws they don\u2019t like, and Amendments to State Constitutions they don\u2019t like!\nThus, the supreme Court in Roe v. Wade and Lawrence v. Texas used the \u201cdue process\u201d clause to seize power to overturn State Laws criminalizing abortion and homosexual contact; and Judge Walker used the \u201cdue process\u201d clause to overturn the Will of the People of the State of California restricting marriage to one man and one woman.\nAgain, the \u201cdue process\u201d clause refers only to judicial proceedings: That freed slaves couldn\u2019t be lynched, deprived of their freedom, or have their property taken away except pursuant to the judgment of their peers after a fair trial.\n\u201cDue process\u201d never involved judicial power to override Acts of the Legislature of a Sovereign State or Amendments to State Constitutions. The sole purpose of the \u201cdue process\u201d clause was to ensure that freed slaves got FAIR TRIALS!\nc) They have evaded the constitutional limits on their powers by redefining the \u201cequal protection\u201d clause of the 14th Amendment from its original meaning of requiring States to secure to blacks the same right to contract, to hold property, and to sue, as whites enjoyed, and the equal benefit of all laws for security of person and property; to prohibiting the States from making any \u201cdistinctions\u201d or \u201cclassifications\u201d in their State Statutes or Constitutions the federal judges don\u2019t like!\nThus, in Perry v. Schwarzenegger, Judge Walker asserted that Proposition 8 violates the \u201cequal protection\u201d clause of the 14th Amendment because it \u201cdisadvantages gays and lesbians without any rational justification\u201d (Opinion p. 135).\n6. So! Activist federal judges have been using the \u201cdue process\u201d clause of the 14th Amendment to override acts of State Legislatures which outlaw conduct federal judges want to legalize! They simply make up a \u201cconstitutional right\u201d to do those things. Under their view, there is no limit to their powers! State Legislatures criminalize child rape, but 5 judges on the supreme Court can fabricate a \u201cconstitutional right\u201d to have sex with children \u2013 a \u201cliberty and privacy right\u201d in the 14th Amendment to have sex with children! If these \u201cliberty and privacy rights\u201d mean that women can abort babies, and homosexual contact is lawful; why can\u2019t they also mean that adults can have sex with children? Why can\u2019t they mean that people have \u201cliberty and privacy rights\u201d to commit any crime? What\u2019s the limit? There IS no limit! Justice Anthony Kennedy, who wrote the majority opinion in Lawrence v. Texas, said:\n\u2026As the Constitution endures, persons in every generation can invoke its principles in their own search for greater freedom. (p. 579)\nKennedy just tossed Art. III, Sec. 2 out the door! He and his ideological allies recognize no limits on their judicial power! Just name an act you want legalized and if 5 of them agree, Voila! A new \u201cliberty\u201d \u201cright\u201d! And a Law made by a State Legislature prohibiting that act bites the dust. And since supreme Court judges claim the right to \u201cset policy\u201d for all of these United States (and we have let them do it), State laws throughout the land prohibiting that act also bite the dust. And that is how we got a handful of supreme Court judges setting \u201cpolicy\u201d for everyone in the country.\n7. Abortion, homosexual contact, marriage, prostitution, child sex, drugs, etc. are issues reserved to the States or The People. The federal government is not granted power in the Constitution over these objects, and they are not prohibited by Art. I, Sec. 10, to the States.\nThe Supreme Court\u2019s Radical Redefinition of \u201cLiberty\u201d\n8. The quote from Justice Kennedy shows that federal judges have redefined \u201cLiberty\u201d: They see \u201cliberty\u201d as freedom from moral restraints; they do not see \u201cliberty\u201d as freedom from coercive civil government \u2013 to the contrary, they are determined to force their radical conception of \u201cfreedom\u201d down our throats.\nBut Professor Berger proves that the framers of the 14th Amendment did not understand \u201cLiberty\u201d as freedom from moral restraints. He proves that the purpose of the \u201cdue process\u201d clause of the 14th Amendment was to protect freed slaves from being lynched, confined, or having their stuff taken away except pursuant to the judgment of their peers after a fair trial; and the purpose of the \u201cequal protection\u201d clause was to require States to secure to blacks the same right to contract, to hold property, and to sue, as whites enjoyed, and the equal benefit of all laws for security of person and property.\n9. Do you see how federal judges have usurped powers never granted to them and how they are destroying our Constitution? If we do not insist that federal judges adhere to the \u201coriginal intent\u201d of the U.S. Constitution (and this original intent is readily ascertainable, Justice Scalia\u2019s comment to the contrary notwithstanding), then the Rule of Law can not be reborn, and we will fall.\nThe Remedy for Judicial Lawlessness\n10. Are there remedies for this judicial lawlessness? YES! Congress must use its Impeachment Power to remove the usurping judges. They serve during \u201cgood Behaviour\u201d only (Art. III, Sec. 1) and do not have \u201clifetime appointments\u201d. Alexander Hamilton addressed judicial usurpations and the judiciary\u2019s \u201ctotal incapacity to support its usurpations by force\u201d in Federalist No. 81, 8th para:\n\u2026the important constitutional check which the power of instituting impeachments in one part of the legislative body [House], and of determining upon them in the other [Senate], would give to that body [Congress] upon the members of the judicial department. This is alone a complete security. There never can be danger that the judges, by a series of deliberate usurpations on the authority of the legislature, would hazard the united resentment of the body intrusted with it [the impeachment power], while this body [Congress] was possessed of the means of punishing their presumption by degrading them from their stations\u2026\nNow you know that federal judges can be impeached, convicted & removed from the bench for usurping power. The Rule of Law does not require us to go along with all court decisions. Rather, if the decision is an usurpation, the Rule of Law requires us to spit on the decision and demand that the judges be impeached & removed from the bench.\nOur Rights do NOT Come from the Constitution!\n11. Finally, a word about our Rights: The Constitution is about the Powers which We the People delegated to the 3 branches of the federal government. It is NOT about our rights, which come from God, are unalienable, and predate & pre-exist the Constitution! We created the Constitution and the federal government! Why would the Creator (that\u2019s us) grant to our \u201ccreature\u201d (the federal courts), the power to determine & define our Rights?\n1 State legislatures may make laws re abortion, homosexuality, marriage, etc. as permitted by their State Constitutions. But as these are not among the enumerated legislative powers of Congress, Congress is not permitted to make laws on these subjects. Neither are federal judges.\n2 Hamilton says this is the only instance where the Constitution contemplates the federal courts hearing cases between Citizens of the same State. (Federalist No. 80, 3rd para from end).\n3 The 11th Amendment (ratified 1795) withdrew from federal courts the power to hear cases filed against one of the States by Citizens of another State or by Citizens or Subjects of any foreign State.\n4 What a mind! All those Hamilton haters who parrot the lies about how Hamilton was a \u201cstatist\u201d, etc, demonstrate a profound ignorance of The Federalist Papers & The U.S. Constitution.\n5 When federal judges redefine terms in the Constitution, they \u201camend\u201d the Constitution in violation of Art. V. Article V. sets forth the two lawful methods of amending the Constitution, neither of which is \u201credefinition by judges\u201d.\nTags: homosexual marriagehomosexuality\nNext post George Bush Family Emails Hacked\nPrevious post Idaho Bill: \"Atlas Shrugged\" To Be Required Reading For Students",

        "raw_content": "You will meet as soon as possible with your funeral director to review personal information about the deceased in order to complete the death certificate and prepare the obituary. Prior to this consultation, you should also ascertain whether the deceased had preplanned for the funeral. Throughout all the planning, your funeral director will be respectful of the family\u2019s wishes. The visitation and funeral can be a valuable experience as it meets the religious, social and emotional needs of the mourners. The funeral arrangements are particularly important in giving friends and family a meaningful way to express themselves.\nUnfortunately, there will be a lot of paperwork. Your funeral director can assist you in securing all the benefits rightfully due you, guide you to the proper resources, and assist in much of the paperwork required to file for insurance, Social Security and Veterans Administration benefits. Some of the assistance your funeral director can provide includes the following:\nDeath certificates necessary to file for insurance benefits;\nSend an appropriate form of the death certificate to Social Security;\nDirect you to your nearest Social Security office to determine current benefits and to file a claim, including Survivor benefits, and Medicare benefits to help pay the final medical bills if the deceased was 65 or over;\nObtain an American flag for any honorably discharged veteran;\nAssist you in applying for a veteran\u2019s grave marker and in making arrangements for burial in a national cemetery for eligible veterans and family members.\nThe Obituary Announcement\nWith your assistance, the funeral director will prepare the obituary announcement or paid death notice for publication in the newspapers. This notifies people of the time and place for visitation and funeral services. The notices can also be sent to other localities.\nAssisted by your funeral director, you will decide the time, place and type of visitation. Usually, the visitation will be held at the funeral home. During visitation hours at the funeral home, your funeral director will assist you in the reception of those who call.\nYour funeral director will help you arrange a service that will best satisfy the preferences of you and your family. Most funeral homes offer a chapel or another appropriate setting for the service. Or you may also choose to hold the service at the family church, synagogue or other suitable location. If you are not affiliated with a church or synagogue, but wish to have a religious service, your funeral director can suggest a clergy. If a non-traditional service is desired, he or she can suggest alternatives that maintain the positive values and dignity of the funeral.\nYou will also consider what kind of tribute you may wish to make. A suitable tribute might include a eulogy or personal remark either by the clergy or a close personal friend. Biblical passages, favorite poetry or other appropriate readings may be chosen. You may also wish to include music, both for its beauty and symbolic significance. If the deceased was a member of a fraternal group or similar organization, associated rituals may be available for the family\u2019s use before the service, or incorporated into other plans being made for the funeral.\nThe family may choose to place a floral spray from the family on the casket, which should be delivered just before the visitation period begins. Your funeral director can advise you, or you may prefer to personally contact a favorite florist. The caskets of veterans may be draped with an American flag without charge from the Veterans Administration for you. After burial, this flag is presented to the next-of-kin.\nCasket Bearers or Pallbearers\nTogether with other family members, you will select casket bearers. Sometimes honorary casket bearers are also chosen, not to assist in carrying the casket, but to honor the memory of the deceased.\nTags:casket, funeral arrangements, funeral flowers, obituary announcement, planning a funeral, veteran burial, veteran funeral",

        "raw_content": "Blue cocktails \u2013 for some those may still be the epitome of a cocktail. Sadly, this is still a quite common point of view that goes back to the bars of the 80s and 90s where lots of colorful cocktails with Blue Curacao, tiny umbrellas and small glittering palms were served. In addition with half a fruit salad on the rim of the glass the clich\u00e9 of a cocktail was born. Best enjoyed under the leaves of an artificial palm tree illuminated by halogen spotlights in a \u201cso called\u201d Caribbean bar\u2026\nMeanwhile, all this has fortunately become a \u2018no-go\u2019, even though the returning to the historical-classical cocktail as the sophisticated fundament for modern creations could not eradicate such drinks entirely, but of course in renowned bars you will look for such drinks in vain. Even bars in the Tiki tradition nowadays tend to rely on style and sophistication while interpreting their cocktails entirely different from the description above. Nonetheless, the blue cocktail has become something like the archetype of a cocktail from this darker chapter of bar history. So today you won\u2019t find many drinks with Blue Curacao or blue colour on bar menus at all (though the real Curacao of Curacao is also available in the blue variant and its taste is absolutely fine).\nAnyway, today\u2019s article is about a blue drink: The Blue Moon Cocktail is closely related to the history of the violet liqueur Cr\u00e8me de Violette and the Aviation Cocktail. The latter is a classic which disappeared for a long time from the scene but today certainly will be the most famous drink with Cr\u00e8me de Violette. By contrast, the Blue Moon cocktail is far less known and in the vastness of the Internet you will find really gruesome concoctions under that name. Of course they have nothing to do with the Blue Moon Cocktail I\u2019d like to introduce here.\nCr\u00e8me de Violette enjoyed a huge popularity in the 1890s but vanished at least by the 1930s from the production pallets of the major manufacturers, so cocktails made with Cr\u00e8me de Violette disappeared from the scene. Since the cocktail renaissance of the new millennium Cr\u00e8me de Violette once again is available at many stores and liqueur shops. Another available variant is the Cr\u00e8me Yvette. Basically, Cr\u00e8me Yvette is also a kind of Cr\u00e8me de Violette, but in addition to the subtle aroma of violets you can find citrus, spice and vanilla notes inside.\nThe Blue Moon Cocktail I\u2019m presenting here is adapted from Hugo R. Ensslin\u2019s 1917 recipe and comes with Cr\u00e8me Yvette, but it can be mixed with Cr\u00e8me de Violette as well. Thus it is similar to the aviation, but instead of Maraschino it relies on vermouth and receives an additional component by Orange Bitters. If you like the Aviation cocktail, the Blue Moon Cocktail is a \u2018Must-Try\u2019! It is fundamentally different, though, but a real treat!\nRecipe (adapted from Hugo R. Ensslin\u2019s Recipes for Mixed Drinks, 1917):\n3 cl French Vermouth (for instance Noilly Prat)\n2 Dashes Cr\u00eame Yvette (alternatively Cr\u00e8me de Violette)\nPreparation: Stir all ingredients on ice in a mixing glass and strain into your pre-chilled glass. Mr. Ensslin now tops the drink with a little bit of red wine. I have added another dash of Cr\u00e8me de Violette.\nGarnish: traditionally none (I have, however, added a lemon zest. A sprinkle of lemon oil on the surface is performing very well in the drink, especially when using Cr\u00e8me de Violette in place of Cr\u00e8me Yvette.)\nBuying Sources: gin and vermouth can be found in specialist shops and well-stocked supermarkets. Visiting a specialized retailer or ordering online might be necessary in order to get some Cr\u00e8me de Violette or Cr\u00e8me Yvette. The same applies to orange bitters.\nThis entry was tagged Creme de Violette, Creme Yvette, Gin, Noilly Prat, Orange Bitters, red wine, Vermouth.",

However, settled in Cape Town a few years ago, he moved into the online world and as a lover of all things tech and geek related, spent many hours researching all things Android. It\u2019s not all \u201cdroiding\u201d for Rick, though, music plays a massive part in his life and his rants on \u201cDon\u2019t Sink, Swim\u201d have gained quite an underground following, mostly from friends who never get to see him in person, because of his reclusive lifestyle.\nWebsite: http://rickbosch.blogspot.com/\nA smartphone love affair: the Motorola Moto X Pure Edition\nBy Rick Bosch on 7 January, 2016\nAs far as smartphone loyalties go, I\u2019ve always been an Android person, but with regards to actual devices, it\u2019s always been Nexus first, and nothing else is good enough. That has however changed recently. I say recently, I mean about a year ago when I got my Moto X 2014. It was the first non-Nexus I\u2019d owned since the Nexus S and if I am honest, it completely and utterly blew my mind. The best part of that was, that the 2014 Moto X wasn\u2019t a particularly good device. The camera was mediocre, the battery life was atrocious and the...\nCyanogenMod 13 first impressions: bringing Marshmallow to the masses\nBy Rick Bosch on 3 December, 2015\nNow that Android Marshmallow is out in the wild, Android enthusiasts everywhere, at least those without Nexus devices, will be waiting to see when it\u2019s their turn to upgrade from Lollipop. Numerous manufacturers have already released their lists of which devices will see the upgrade as well as those that are scheduled to be left behind. This is normal and should come as no surprise, however, for those not wanting to wait, (for instance, me), Cyanogenmod has delivered. Named CyanogenMod 13, the custom OS had been updated to Android 6.0 Marshmallow and nightlies for a few devices, including my Moto G...\nAndroid Marshmallow hands on: smarter, shinier, more secure\nIt\u2019s that time of year again: upgrade season. You know, the time when iOS users around the world get the latest and greatest that Apple has to offer, while only a small percentage of Android users get to experience brand new Google products. I\u2019m lucky enough to have a Nexus device, and for the past few days I\u2019ve been using Android\u2019s newest and most mature release yet: Android Marshmallow. I\u2019m sure the various OEMs (pipping Motorola to be first again) will start rolling out their versions soon, but for now, it\u2019s only available on Nexus devices. So what have I learned...\nAndroid 4.4 preview: KitKat to calmly and quietly change the world\nBy Rick Bosch on 4 November, 2013\nGoogle's an odd duck. A very rich duck but an odd one at that. For months we deal with leaked screenshots and rumours, only for the finished product to surprise once again, with genuine innovation made the Google way. So let me not beat around the bush, I will eventually buy a Nexus 5 and it seems the business, but it's Android 4.4, known as KitKat, that I'll be concentrating on for now. I've not yet used the software, but I will go on a limb to say that this is the biggest update to Android since the jump to...\nRead all about it: 3 of Android\u2019s best newsreaders\nWhen it comes to news reading apps, there's more choice in the Play Store than I could ever need.

However, there is a new app that I've become very fond of, very quickly in the news reader space, and it's actually what inspired me to write this post.

It's really not that important!\" We've all been in a conversation like that, and you can deny it all you want. If you have a smartphone, you've had that conversation. Why we still do so though, is beyond me. We're at a stage now where there are three camps: Android, iOS and Windows Phone. Sure, Ubuntu is available now as well, but let's face it, that's still a very niche market. As for BlackBerry, well the less said the better. The comparison and cross-platform competition will carry on as long as they exist....\nThe ultimate Android rooting guide\nBy Rick Bosch on 2 October, 2013\nRooting: maybe you've thought about it already, because your device is getting a little slower and you want all the shiny new features you read about on Gearburn. Unfortunately for you, this is Android, and sadly *insert manufacturer here* either hasn\u2019t, or isn't going to upgrade your current version. I will admit, this is a bummer, however OEMs are getting much better, so people are generally only a version or two behind, often without any real drawbacks.

As far as custom software goes, this is possibly the biggest happening in the Android world, well, since it started. Taking an open source project, driven by hundreds of developers, and then monetising the entire project has left the community very divided and rightfully so. Before we get into that, let\u2019s have a look at the facts. Besides Nexus devices, very few devices have access to custom ROMs that offer a \u201cstock-like\u201d experience, and that\u2019s where CyanogenMod comes in. With...\nRasbeanjelly review: made for the minimalist ROM fan\nIn what is seemingly becoming a tradition, I\u2019m back with another review of my favourite custom ROM, Rasbeanjelly from Rascarlo. It\u2019s the first custom ROM I flash on any device, not just because the thread is one of my favourites to be a part of, but the sense of community and information sharing on any of the \u201cTrinity family\u201d threads really has enriched my experience of using Android. Self builds from Rascarlo\u2019s source code are very much encouraged, and that\u2019s because of the minimal, bug free, approach of Rasbeanjelly.

Pichai\u2019s tweet was accompanied by a snapshot of the brand new KitKat statue (pictured above) outside Google\u2019s headquarters in Mountain View. At the same time, the brand new KitKat site was unveiled and it provides a really nice retrospective of the previous versions of the OS.

But these leftist saboteurs are unrepentant, and they know they will suffer no accountability, because for the left, when it comes to placing their own in power, anything goes, and any tactic, no matter how dirty, is acceptable.\n\u201cBrazile Defends Her Decision to Leak Questions to Clinton,\u201d by Nick Bolger, Daily Caller, March 17, 2017:\nFormer Democratic National Committee chair Donna Brazile joined Comedy Central\u2019s \u201cThe Daily Show\u201d on Thursday to discuss her time as head of the DNC. During the interview, Trevor Noah asked Brazile about her leaked emails to the Clinton campaign in which she gave out debate questions.\n\u201cWell, first of all, I didn\u2019t have my hands in the cookie jar. I\u2019m an operative, I\u2019m a strategist, and part of what my role was, in addition to being a \u2018political pundit,\u2019 was to help advance the cause of justice and equality,\u201d she said.\n\u201cSo think about, we have six debates. I started to fight for more debates. I started to fight to ensure that Bernie and Hillary had an opportunity to talk about these issues, talk about the Flint water crisis, talk about criminal justice reform, and that was my role,\u201d she continued.\nBrazile then said that what people know about the emails is the \u201cRussian version\u201d of the story.\n\u201cNow, the Wikileaks version is the Russian version. My own version is that, had you saw my e-mails to Bernie, you would have known that I was communicating with Bernie just as much as I was communicating with Hillary, with Martin O\u2019Malley,\u201d Brazile said. \u201cBecause that\u2019s what you do.\u201d\nAfter Brazile demonstrated that the Wikileaks version of events was only half of the truth using a torn piece of paper, Noah asked her if she would tell her side of the events in a book\u2026.",

        "title": "Venezuela illegally issued 10,000 passports to Syrians and Iranians - Geller Report",
        "raw_content": "Venezuela illegally issued 10,000 passports to Syrians and Iranians\nAmerica\u2019s problem with illegal immigration has reached a crisis point, but Heaven forbid anyone should actually try to do something about it.\nAt least the Trump administration has taken steps against Venezuelan Vice President Tareck El Aissami, who has alleged ties to Hizballah and is reportedly behind the surge of illegal passports.\n\u201cVenezuela illegally issued 10,000 passports to Syrians, Iranians, report says,\u201d FoxNews.com, April 17, 2017:\nA former director of Venezuela\u2019s Office of Identification, Migration and Foreigners said that during his 17 months in the post, the socialist government gave at least 10,000 Venezuelan passports and other documents to citizens of Syria, Iran and other Middle Eastern countries.\nIn an interview with El Nuevo Herald, Colonel Vladimir Medrano Rengifo said the operation was headed by current Vice President Tareck El Aissami.\nHe said most passports and visas were granted in the Venezuelan Consulate in Damascus, Syria\u2019s capital.\n\u201cToday we don\u2019t know where these people are, nor what they are doing,\u201d said Medrano, who currently resides in the United States.\n\u201cThey can be anywhere in the world, traveling with Venezuelan documentation,\u201d adding that the number of Middle Eastern individuals with irregular Venezuelan documentation could be much larger.\nColonel Medrano was dismissed in October 2009 by El Aissami, who was then Minister of Interior and Justice. According to Medrano, El Aissami fired him because he knew he was trying to dismantle the human smuggling network.\nEl Aissami, one of the most powerful men in Venezuela, has long been investigated in the United States for his alleged links to drug trafficking and to the Islamist militant group Hezbollah.\nIn January he became the most senior Venezuelan official to ever be targeted by the U.S., when the Trump administration decreed sanctions against him and Samark Lopez, a wealthy Venezuelan businessman believed to be his front man in Miami.\nIn the Sunday interview, Medrano told El Nuevo Herald that El Aissami was directly involved in the passport scheme. He said that whenever his office reported irregularities involving Syria-issued passports, El Aissami ordered him to look the other way.\nMedrano said the passports were legitimate, but the people carrying them were not Venezuelans.\n\u201c[El Aissami] called me every time these flights landed (\u2026) and we tried to detain [the people carrying the suspicious passports]. He pressured us in an excessive manner so this would not be done and let his \u2018cousins\u2019 get in, as he called them,\u201d Medrano told the Herald.\nUpon review by immigration officials at the airport, Medrano explained, the identity linked to those passports turned out to belong to deceased persons, with a different name\u2026.",

A crucial factor in this growth was the Qing rulers' adoption of Tibetan Buddhist medical institutions and technologies, in a concerted imperial strategy to consolidate administration of the frontiers by promoting medical training, treatment, and ritual. Tibetan Buddhist monastic colleges in the Qing Empire practiced medical technologies from smallpox innoculation to moxibustion and bonesetting, but became best known for their production of \"precious pills\" (rin chen ril bu), or the consecrated, edible products of ritual assemblies. In this talk, Dr. Van Vleet will demonstrate how precious pills during the Qing period developed as technologies of collecting and compounding expensive ingredients from far-flung regions of the empire, materializing the experience of a multi-ethnic Buddhist community as a consecrated \"edible network.\" Understanding precious pills as medical technologies available for imperial adoption and redevelopment, she argues, reveals how they served not only to engineer physical health and spiritual growth, but also to engineer remedies for conflict and building community.\nFor further information about the Colloquium, please contact the Program in the History of Science, Technology and Medicine at hstm@umn.edu.

        "title": "Macedonia: Satirical Blog Blames Name Dispute for Greek Bankruptcy \u00b7 Global Voices",
        "raw_content": "Macedonia: Satirical Blog Blames Name Dispute for Greek Bankruptcy\nSead93, a renowned Macedonian blogger and one of the country's most influential Twitter users, has published a satirical article which, in a way, sums up many of the local jokes about the Greek financial problems and the political situation in Macedonia.\nParodying the sensationalist style and clich\u00e9s overused by the local media, he wrote [mk] about a \u201cscandalous\u201d revelation:\nHigh diplomatic sources confirmed for the \u201cCopy Paste\u201d news portal and the \u201cGoogle Translate\u201d press agency that high political functionaries from Macedonia are behind the bankruptcy of our Southern Neighbor.\nAccording to these sources, who, understandably, asked to remain anonymous, the last phases of the plan to bankrupt Greece, crafted and carefully implemented by Skopje, are underway. Unlike other political actions, this has been done in coordination with the opposition. The chief \u201cringleader\u201d and conspirator of this plan is the first Macedonian president [Kiro Gligorov]. He has held a grudge with Greece since the 1990s due to the economic embargo, but he has especially bad blood with the [Papandreou] family, i.e. with Andreas Papandreou, the father of the recent Greek Prime Minister, George Papandreou.\nThe plan was to suck up Greece to spend extraordinary amounts of funds in the name dispute and the battles related to this issue. One of the key strategies were the operative activities of the special unit labeled \u201cTraitors\u201d whose members offered their services to Greek interests for high amounts of money. The high number of such Macedonian operatives who lead the Greeks to believe they work for them, and the associated expenses, in fact bankrupted Greece, claim informed sources.\nThey also add that the Skopje 2014 Project was part of this plan. Its purpose was to defocus the attention of the Greek side from the true goals. While the Greeks thought that the whole resistance and resources of the Macedonian side were being spent on this megalomaniacal project, the plan for gradual Greek bankruptcy was underway. Greeks incurred additional expenses with various activities related to lobbying against the Macedonian side, starting from the United Nations, to international beauty pageants, to various websites such as livescore.com, which have been paid off to avoid using our constitutional name.\nIn the conclusion of the article, Sead93 juxtaposed the photos of Savo Klimovski [mk], legal expert and former speaker of the Macedonian Parliament, and Lucas Papademos, economics expert and the current Greek prime minister.\nSavo Klimovski and Lucas Papademos. Collage by Sead93.\nThe final phase of the plan is appointing \u201cour man\u201d as the head of the Greek Government, who \u2013 according to the well-informed sources \u2013 would \u201cget the job done.\u201d At this time, there are speculations that this task has been undertaken by Savo Klimovski, former speaker of the Parliament and Skopje Law Faculty professor. With mild corrections of his face, Klimovski has been \u201cplanted\u201d as a \u201csavior\u201d of the Greek economy and state \u2013 while he in essence is a key player of the Macedonian side. [\u2026]\nAfter this post was published, scores of social media users applauded it, sharing the link via Facebook and Twitter. It was listed within the selection of the most impressive blog posts for November [mk] on the website Krigla Pivo [Beer Mug], which, its authors think, shows the renewal and improving quality of the Macedonian blogosphere \u201cafter a longer period of abstinence and stagnation.\u201d\nHowever, not everybody from Macedonia was able or willing to appreciate the irony and the humor of the post, or the mentions of the excesses of the regime, according to the prevalent logic \u201cif absolute praise is absent, then it must be an opponent.\u201d Some comments in the post descend to ad hominem attacks.\nThe government's favorite pundit Milenko Nedelkovski, a perpetrator of the Brussels incident, infamous for public use of hate speech [mk] with impunity (including demands to \u201cliquidate\u201d \u201cthe traitors\u201d from lists he drafts in his TV show), posted the link on his Facebook page with a comment suggesting the post is a part of some anti-Macedonian conspiracy.\nNedelkovski is thought to be part of an inner circle of several media personages close to the leadership of the country who serve as their mouthpieces or testers of ideas. His closeness is demonstrated by the fact that he accompanied the Prime Minister (a frequent guest star of his TV show) on state visits to Singapore and Japan.\nWhen that news became public [mk], the government issued a retraction [mk], claiming that \u201cthe journalist\u2026 covers the visits at his own expense.\u201d\nHahahah.. it was so funny I forgot to laugh!\nI suppose that blogger is not aware of Georgievski\u2019s recent interview?\nRead this post in Magyar, Shqip, \u043c\u0430\u043a\u0435\u0434\u043e\u043d\u0441\u043a\u0438, Espa\u00f1ol",

        "raw_content": "The best investment advice\nOn several recent occasions, I have overheard conversations among people about their investments. Sometimes people share about their investment adviser, and other times they discuss the latest stocks that have performed well. There is certainly nothing wrong with attempting to invest wisely \u2013 I do it myself. However, we must remember that the most important things we invest in have nothing to do with money. For Christians, it\u2019s a tragedy if we invest financially, but we fail to invest in the most important ways. Let\u2019s take a look at the most important investments we will ever make\u2026\nInvest in the Word of God\n\u201cHow sweet are Your words to my taste! Yes, sweeter than honey to my mouth! From Your precepts I get understanding; Therefore I hate every false way. Your word is a lamp to my feet And a light to my path.\u201d (Psalm 119:103\u2013105, NASB95)\nYou don\u2019t have to go to seminary in order to appreciate and understand the Bible. We are privileged to live in a time when we have unprecedented tools for studying the Bible and more good, solid Bible translations than ever before in Christian history. No excuses. If you can understand your portfolio, you can understand the Bible. If you can understand football, you can understand the Bible. If you can balance your checkbook, you can study the Bible.\nInvest in prayer\n\u201cpray without ceasing;\u201d (1 Thessalonians 5:17, NASB95)\nMaybe you are thinking, \u201cWell, I can\u2019t just sit around and pray all the time.\u201d That\u2019s certainly true, but how often do you pray?\n\u201cNevertheless, each individual among you also is to love his own wife even as himself, and the wife must see to it that she respects her husband. Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. Honor your father and mother (which is the first commandment with a promise), so that it may be well with you, and that you may livelong on the earth. Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger, but bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.\u201d (Ephesians 5:33\u20136:4, NASB95)\nIt\u2019s sad to see Christians who are more passionate about their portfolio than their marriage. It\u2019s really tragic. No matter how much wealth we may acquire for our family, the truth is that the the most important investments our families need involve our time, our attention, and our influence.\nInvest in your church\n\u201cand let us consider how to stimulate one another to love and good deeds, not forsaking our own assembling together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another; and all the more as you see the day drawing near.\u201d (Hebrews 10:24\u201325, NASB95)\nCertainly, I believe the Bible teaches that every Christian should tithe to their church, but being invested in the church means far more than our money. Every single Christian can make a difference in their church in some way. In fact, most Christians are capable of making far more of a difference than they ever dreamed.\n\u201cBut as for you, speak the things which are fitting for sound doctrine. Older men are to be temperate, dignified, sensible, sound in faith, in love, in perseverance. Older women likewise are to be reverent in their behavior, not malicious gossips nor enslaved to much wine, teaching what is good, so that they may encourage the young women to love their husbands, to love their children, to be sensible, pure, workers at home, kind, being subject to their own husbands, so that the word of God will not be dishonored. Likewise urge the young men to be sensible; in all things show yourself to be an example of good deeds, with purity in doctrine, dignified,\u201d (Titus 2:1\u20137, NASB95)\nCertainly all of us who are parents should invest in our children, but I believe we should look even beyond them. There are scores of young adults all around us who crave relationships, models, and mentors. They are far more open than you may think. Many of them are married (or want to be married) but have never seen a healthy marriage. Others are trying to be fathers or mothers, but never had much of a relationship with their own father or mother. Look around and pray. I almost guarantee you that you will find some young adult that you can invest in.\nYou see, the Bible gives us the best investment advice. It does speak to financial investment and those matters, but it also instructs us in investing for eternity. Every single one of us is investing our time, talent, and treasure. The question is: \u201cHow are we investing it?\u201d\nMemorial Day is a day that America has set aside to remember those who died while serving our country in the armed forces. From what I have read, Memorial Day originated after the Civil War as an effort to remember those who had fallen in that way, and by the turn of the 20th century had become a time for our nation to remember all of those who paid the ultimate sacrifice. On this Memorial Day 2013, I am spending a relaxing day off with my family. However, on Memorial Day 2012, my family had an awesome privilege that we will never forget. On this day one year ago, we were here\u2026\nLater on in our trip to Washington D.C. we visited the Vietnam Memorial. I had always wanted to see it particularly because I have a family member whose name is one of 50,000+ inscribed on that wall. My mom\u2019s brother, Royce Hall, was drafted during the Vietnam War and died there. My mom was pregnant with me when that happened, so I never had the privilege of meeting my uncle Royce. It was a great privilege to take my boys there, find his name, and spend a few minutes remembering him. Below is a photo of Daniel tracing his name on the wall.\nOn this day, Americans often say that \u201cour freedom isn\u2019t free\u201d but one year ago today my family was reminded of that in a very tangible way. On this (and every) Memorial Day, we remember and we say, \u201cThank you\u201d and \u201cMay God bless America.\u201d\nWhat I have learned from the life of David\nLast night during our Wednesday evening service, I finished a series on the life of David. Over a period of several months, I covered all the major events in his life as recorded in scripture. Like every preacher, I had preached some messages on some key events in David\u2019s life, but I had never looked at it in depth and preached its entirety. I have enjoyed preparing and preaching this series as much as any in some time. It impacted me personally in profound ways. There is much more to David\u2019s life than the victory over Goliath and the incident with Bathsheba. Here are some of the most important lessons I learned from the life of David\u2026\n1) Have courage to do what God wants you to do.\nDavid was certainly a very gifted man, but many gifted men have lived and died without accomplishing much. David had a deep faith, but he took courage and did what God had for him to do. It took courage to face Goliath. It took courage to conquer Jerusalem and unite the kingdom. It took courage win battles and greatly expand the kingdom. It took courage to \u201ckeep on keeping on\u201d after terrible sin, humiliation, and trouble in his own family. It takes courage to live for the Lord today. It takes courage to stay married. It takes courage to raise children. It takes courage to grow old. It takes courage to endure grief and loss. David is a great example of one who had a courageous faith.\n2) We choose to sin, but we do not get to choose the consequences.\nDavid sinned terribly with Bathsheba and then sinned more terribly by trying to cover it up. Those were his choices. However, the consequences were God\u2019s choices. David paid a heavy price in his family for years to come in ways that he never dreamed.\n3) Accept the fact that you will die with unfulfilled dreams.\nFor all of the great things that David accomplished, there was one great dream he did not get to accomplish: building God\u2019s temple. Why? The Lord himself would not allow David to do it. David went to his grave with no temple for the Lord. It was an unfulfilled dream, but David did not get bitter about it. One of Satan\u2019s favorite strategies is to make us bitter over one or two things that did not go our way and overlook hundreds of great blessings! How did David keep from bitterness? Rather than focusing on what God did not let him do, David focused on what God had enabled him to do!\n4) Stay humble and appreciative of God\u2019s grace.\nEven though he was a wealthy, powerful king, David always remembered that he was simply a shepherd boy that God had chosen. David expresses his absolute amazement that the Lord had chosen one like him to be king and rule the people of God.\n5) Help the next generation succeed.\nIn the last recorded words of David found in scripture (1 Chronicles 28-29) a powerful exchange takes place. David recognizes the Lord has chosen his son Solomon to succeed him and be the one who would get to build the temple. David spends exactly one verse talking about his kingship and then quickly turns his attention to Solomon \u2013 encouraging him and instructing him. David actually helped the next generation succeed.\n6) Determine to point people to the Lord until your last breath.\nAs David came to the end of his life, he gave glory to God and reiterated that everything was the Lord\u2019s! Even with all he had been through, David did not die bitter. He died praising the Lord.\n7) The plan of God is awesome!\nThere are tons of great things to know about the life of David, but the most important one is that God\u2019s covenant with David (to establish his throne forever) was ultimately fulfilled in Christ. Read Matthew 1:1 and see how it ties together David and our Lord Jesus Christ.\nTwo moms I am most thankful for\nToday is Mother\u2019s Day 2013, and I wanted to use a post on the blog to mention two very special mothers in my life today. Here is their picture at our last family Christmas celebration\u2026\nOn the left is my mother, Janice Corbin. I am very blessed to have had a good mother who loved me and, most of all, taught me to love the Lord and His Word. In addition to those big things, she taught me countless \u201clittle things\u201d that still shape me even to this day. It\u2019s a joy to me to see her enjoying my sons. In fact, if you look closely at this picture, you will see Daniel opening Christmas presents next her. I almost cropped him out of this picture, but decided to leave him in because that captures my mom well. She\u2019s actually holding one of Daniel\u2019s Christmas presents. She\u2019s a giver. She gave so much to me over the years and now she is giving to my boys. Mom, I love you and thank the Lord for you on this day!\nThe other lady in this picture is my beautiful wife, Becky. She is the love of my life and the mother of our two boys. The sacrifices she makes for me and our boys are incalculable. In watching all that she does for our sons, I have a better appreciation of all my mother did for me. She is not a sports fan, but she certainly spends a good portion of her life at ball games because our sons are playing. In fact, she\u2019s even been known to get excited at a few of them! Thank you, Becky, for being a great wife and mother. I love you and thank the Lord for you on this day!\nFinishing well \u2013 a personal prayer\n\u201cFor I am already being poured out as a drink offering, and the time for my departure is close. I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.\u201d (2 Timothy 4:6\u20137, HCSB)\nAs many times as I have read these words of the Apostle Paul, they leaped off the page to me this week. The great Apostle is about to die. He knows his time is short and as he writes to the young pastor Timothy here is Paul\u2019s one sentence description of his life and ministry: \u201cI have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.\u201d Simple, yet profound. He did not fight every battle, but he had fought the right battles \u2013 \u201cthe good fight.\u201d He viewed his life as a race to finish rather than a means to an end. He kept the faith, that is he stayed true to the Word of God and the gospel even when it cost him dearly. He was faithful. After over almost 20 years of marriage, almost 15 years of fatherhood, and 21 years of full-time ministry, that is increasingly the #1 goal I have: to finish well. While I pray that I will have many more years to preach and serve the Lord, one day I want to be able to sum up my life and ministry in the same way the Apostle Paul did. I offer this prayer from my heart\u2026\n\u201cLord, with a humble heart and a recognition of how needy I am, I ask you for wisdom to fight the good fight. Help me to spend my time and energy on things that really matter. Help me keep the faith by a deep walk with you and an increasing knowledge of your Word. Help me keep the faith by faithfully preaching your Word, no matter the cost or the outward results. Help me finish the race of life and ministry faithfully. If I do nothing else for you, help me to remain a faithful husband to my wife and a faithful father to my sons. Help me to succeed by dying faithful to you, faithful to my wife and sons, and faithful to my church. Amen.\u201d\nTwo overlooked things that God has given\nWhile I am a pastor who preaches every week and often multiple times per week, one of the great privileges of my life is to also sit under the expository preaching ministry of our Senior Pastor, Dr. Jimmy Jackson. During his message yesterday morning, he preached from these verses\u2026\n\u201cHis divine power has given us everything required for life and godliness through the knowledge of Him who called us by His own glory and goodness. By these He has given us very great and precious promises, so that through them you may share in the divine nature, escaping the corruption that is in the world because of evil desires.\u201d (2 Peter 1:3\u20134, HCSB)\nAs he preached, he pointed out verbs in these verses that are in the perfect tense. \u201cHas given\u201d in each verse is the translation of one Greek verb. The perfect tense has no exact equivalent in English. The perfect tense expresses something that happened or was done in the past, but is still in effect right now. One Greek grammar that I have in my library says the perfect tense has as much to do with the present as it does with the past because it describes a present result of a past action. Keep that fact in mind.\nThese verses are expressly for believers. They were originally written to Christians who were facing an increasingly hostile culture and who were suffering for their faith even to the point of death. To those Christians the Holy Spirit inspired Peter to remind them of two great things God had given them: everything required for life and godliness (v. 3) and the promises of God (v. 4). Let\u2019s ponder those for a moment.\nI believe that many Christians live their lives everyday as if God has not given them these two things. They are overlooked in way too many Christian lives. Do you need wisdom to make a decision? Do you need power to overcome a particular temptation? Do you need the strength to do the right thing even though you feel like doing the opposite? Do you need encouragement? V. 3 says that God has given you every single thing you will ever need to live for Him. Remember, this is the perfect tense \u2013 meaning God gave it to you in the past (the moment you became a believer) and it is still available to you right now. Think about that.\nIn addition, v. 4 tells us that God has given us \u201cvery great and precious promises\u201d so that we might become more and more like Christ. Again, this is the perfect tense. God gave them to us at a point in time in the past, but they are still in effect right now. We can stand on the promises of God at all points along the way because they have once and for all been given to us.\nIn his message, Dr. Jimmy Jackson emphasized that the perfect tense eliminates the possibly that what God has given could run out or be rescinded. We absolutely have available to us every thing we need for life and godliness. It will never run out, burn out, or expire. We may be living in our own strength and without prayer, but this divine power to live is available to us all the time. It\u2019s the same with God\u2019s promises. He has given them and they are there, no matter if we are availing ourselves of them or not.\nI\u2019m personally convinced that many Christians overlook these powerful truths. They either do not know or they live as if they do not know that the Lord has provided everything they need to live for Him. They live in defeat overlooking the fact that the promises of God are there to claim 24/7. As you begin this work week, don\u2019t be a Christian who overlooks them, but rather be a Christian who lives in the power of them!\nA thoughtful response to the gay marriage issue\nI just came across this interview from USA Today. The Catholic Archbishop of San Francisco gives a very thoughtful defense of traditional marriage and the life of the unborn. While I certainly would have many theological disagreements with Archbishop Cordileone, I do admire his very strong stand on these issues and his responses are well worth taking your time to read. I particularly appreciated his answer to the final question regarding the trends in the courts and in society going against him.\nhttp://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2013/03/21/archbishop-cordileone-gay-marriage-catholic-church/2001085/\nChoosing to rejoice\n\u201cRejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice!\u201d (Philippians 4:4, HCSB)\nThat\u2019s a short, simple verse, but boy is it packed with meaning. First of all, the Greek word translated \u201crejoice\u201d is chairete which has several shades of meaning as used in the New Testament. According to the language tools I consulted, the word means \u201cto greet, to be glad, to have joy\u2026\u201d Rejoicing is something that all of us have done at many points in our lives.\nWe get what it means to rejoice. What we often miss is the source of our rejoicing. Did you notice that the Lord is to be our place of rejoicing? Rejoice \u201cin the Lord\u2026\u201d Our joy is to come from the Lord. He makes us glad. This isn\u2019t to say that we shouldn\u2019t enjoy life. We should enjoy our family and friends. We should enjoy our careers and the blessings of work. We should enjoy healthy recreation and leisure. We should enjoy life, but we do that knowing that life hurts and we will often be disappointed. However, joy goes deeper than our circumstances. True joy comes from the Lord. That is why we are told to rejoice in Him. Many Christians are miserable right now because they are looking in the wrong places for their joy.\nIn this verse, we are also told to rejoice in the Lord \u201calways.\u201d In the original Greek, this word means \u201calways.\u201d Rejoice in Him all the time -in good times and bad. Rejoice in the Lord when the kids are doing well and rejoice in the Lord when one of them rebels. Rejoice in the Lord when things are great in your marriage and rejoice in the Lord when things haven\u2019t been great in your marriage in years. Rejoice in the Lord when you are young and rejoice in the Lord when you are old. Rejoice in the Lord when you love your job and rejoice in the Lord when you hate your job and pray every day for another one! If the Lord is truly our joy, then we can look to Him in every single situation of life. Think about it.\nFinally, this verse teaches us that to rejoice is our choice. Philippians 4:4 begins a series of imperatives for believers. It is no accident that rejoicing in the Lord begins the list because that is the foundation for Christian behavior. To rejoice is a choice. We can choose to rejoice in our Lord, no matter what we are facing or how we feel. We can choose to rejoice in the Lord as we finish reading a blog post! Again, I say rejoice!",

        "raw_content": "Atheism is not the opposite of religion\nReligion | October 11th, 2015 Greg Stevens\nAre you religious, or are you an atheist? It\u2019s a pretty common question, and it goes hand-in-hand with a pretty common assumption: you\u2019re either one or the other. Well, that\u2019s not completely right: space has been made in our culture for the \u201cspiritual but not religious\u201d crew: those metaphysical in-betweeners for whom the organized cultural trappings of religion are either burdensome or distasteful, but who nonetheless like romanticize the unknown. But even so, the atheism-religion dichotomy is deeply ingrained in the way we think. If you identify as \u201can atheist\u201d you are presumed to not be religious, and if you identify as \u201creligious\u201d then you are presumed to believe in some kind of god.\nThe idea that atheism and religion are opposites is, however, completely wrong.\nThe first clue should come from simple linguistics: the opposite of an atheist is a theist. A \u201ctheist\u201d is simply someone who believes in a god, and it\u2019s certainly possible to believe in a god without belonging to any particular religion. This is the very spirit of deism, the philosophy held by many of the Founding Fathers of the United States. Benjamin Franklin believed in god, certainly, but was very critical of the organized power structures and trappings of Christianity and other religions. \u201cI cannot conceive otherwise,\u201d Franklin wrote in 1728, \u201cthan that He, the Infinite Father, expects or requires no worship or praise from us.\u201d Deists would be examples of areligious theists: people who believe in a god, but do not align themselves with a particular religion.\nThe flips side is true as well: there are religions that do not involve belief in a god. Traditional examples of such religions include Buddhists and Wicca, who believe in divine forces or supernatural agents. But there are some modern religions that go even farther and reject supernaturalism altogether: Modern Satanism and Christian Atheism are two examples. Both involve symbolic frameworks, ritual and a distinct moral lens through which to view the world, but completely reject any kind of supernatural powers, forces, or beings (including gods). These are therefore, by definition, atheistic religions.\nThe religious-areligious distinction is actually completely independent from the theistic-atheistic distinction. To use the language of mathematicians, they are orthogonal: they can exist in all possible combinations with one another. And when you throw in the fact that atheists can either believe in the supernatural or not, the picture becomes even more complicated.\nThese are some difficult distinctions to understand if you have spent your entire life assuming that all religious people believe in a god, and that all atheists shun religion. So to help out, I\u2019ve created a little chart to map out just a few of the many, many philosophical options that are out there for various combinations: atheistic religions, areligious theisms, supernaturalist atheistic areligious philosophies, and so on.\nSo where do you fall on this chart?\n< Is everything a simulation? Maybe, but not in the way you think.\nThe simplest proof that free will is an illusion that you\u2019ll ever see >\nI don\u2019t know that I would consider Deists areligious. It seems to me that the point of that stance was less about not committing to a particular religion than it was the notion that God\u2019s creation was complete in the first place and hence miracles were unnecessary. It\u2019s a great set of assumptions or those who wish to see in science a direct religious significance. Quite a few Desists were quite devoted in their own way.\nThat said, there is only so much precision you can get with any of these labels. One needn\u2019t think the term \u2018atheist\u2019 means someone is irreligious to infer that an atheist is irreligious. It could as easily be an inference based on experience of sorts. Most seem to reject religion. That we needn\u2019t do that is easy enough to understand, but it doesn\u2019t change the common pattern.\n\u201cMost seem to reject religion. That we needn\u2019t do that is easy enough to understand, but it doesn\u2019t change the common pattern.\u201d\nSure, I absolutely agree you that most atheists also consider themselves areligious. But I still think there\u2019s an interesting distinction to be made concerning whether being an atheist entails that someone is irreligious (as many people believe) or being an atheist merely happens to be correlated with being areligious. Some might call it \u201cnit-picking\u201d, and in a purely day-to-day pragmatic sense maybe it is; however, I honestly feel that exploring boundary cases and \u201cexceptions to the rule\u201d is a good way to gain a deeper understanding of the concepts we use every day.\nThis is something people do in science and philosophy all the time, right? We gain a deeper understanding of what we mean by the common concept of \u201cintelligence\u201d my looking at the unusual cases where someone excels in some ways but has deficits in others. We gain a deeper understanding of what we mean by \u201clife\u201d by looking at strange self-replicating molecules that seem to match some of the commonly-understood criteria but not others. And so on. So, to me, taking a close look at examples of \u201catheistic religions\u201d \u2014 even if the people who identify with such are a small minority \u2014 can be very informative about the assumptions we make about the ideas of both atheism and religion in general.\nI would agree with both of these points.\nI like your chart a lot, because I enjoy distilling and crystallizing distinctions between these kinds of ideas, and your chart seems to do so very succinctly \ud83d\ude42\nI\u2019m wondering how did Deists wind up in the Theist column? My current understanding is that Deists do not believe in a \u2018personal\u2019 god. That is, while they maintain the existence of some supreme [creator/force/set of cosmic laws/power/whatever], they do not subscribe to the idea that this power is actively involved (or even interested) in human affairs. I\u2019m not even sure if it would be accurate to say that all Deists necessarily claim that this supreme power is a \u201cbeing\u201d in the classical sense \u2013 some descriptions of Deist perspective seem to reject the whole notion of attributing \u2018personhood\u2019 to the supreme power.\nTheists, on the other hand, do indeed believe that the supreme power is a being \u2013 and further, that this being takes an active interest in its creation.\nI want to say that projecting at least *some* anthropomorphic qualities onto the supreme power is a criteria for being called a Theist. *If* I\u2019m correct on that position, then I think that this premise, in and of itself, should stand as a good reason to not include Deists in the Theist category.\nP.S. As an afterthought, if my thinking is so far coherent, then I imagine it would actually be possible to be an Atheist Deist\u2026\nRick Chapman says:\n+++ There are, in fact, atheistic religions. +++\nI don\u2019t think that\u2019s possible. Without a belief in supernatural deity(ies) or force, all you can have is a belief system. This belief system can include a moral compass, but atheism must, by definition, exclude religion. By your definition, Communism, Stalinism, Fascism, Pol Potism are religions. But I think that\u2019s a ridiculous viewpoint.\nDeists believe in a supernatural force outside of nature but ascribe no particular religious framework to this force. Formal religions do.\nSatanists and Wiccans are not good examples, I think. Satan is a supernatural force, and Wiccans believe in various spirits and deities which exist outside of nature.\nWell, perhaps this is a fundamental question of definition! \ud83d\ude42 My position is that religion is a complex cultural system of moral tenets, symbols, historical traditions, and rituals that create a narrative of purpose and ethics. I think most people would agree that that captures at least PART of the concept of a religion.\nI say that one can have a system like that, but have no supernatural beliefs at all, and it is still a religion.\nYou seem to say: No, the system must also include some kind of supernatural belief, such as a God or gods or souls or spirits, otherwise that system is merely a \u201cbelief system\u201d and not a religion.\nIf this were merely a language issue, I suppose it wouldn\u2019t matter. I say \u201creligion\u201d, you say \u201cbelief system\u201d or \u201cWeltanschauung\u201d or some other word, and in the end it is just a label\u2026 who cares?\nBut, religion also interacts with politics and our culture in very special ways. Suppose you live in a culture that privileges religious views over non-religious views. Suppose you live in a culture that says, \u201cReligious morality is so important, that we must be extra careful to give allowance to deeply held religious beliefs.\u201d\nIn that world, let me ask you a question: Is it sensible\u2013is it rational or fair\u2013to define \u201creligion\u201d in such a way that the moral beliefs of any person who does not believe in the supernatural are AUTOMATICALLY less important than the moral beliefs of someone who believes in ghosts and souls and spirits?\nBecause if you restrict your definition of religion to only those people who have supernatural beliefs, that is what you are saying. In the United States, we have laws that give special power to \u201cdeeply help religious beliefs.\u201d If religion is defined by belief in \u201cthe supernatural\u201d, then nobody who does not believe in some kind of \u201cspirit world\u201d is protected by those laws.\nTo me, that is supremely strange. I am an atheist. I do not hold any supernaturalistic beliefs. I don\u2019t believe in God, or gods, or souls, or \u201cdivine purpose.\u201d But I also have very strong moral convictions: I believe strongly that murder is wrong and causing people deliberate and pointless pain is terrible, for example.\nAre my moral beliefs somehow less valuable \u2014 less worthy of legal protection \u2014 only because they are not rooted in belief in an invisible sentient \u201cgod\u201d?\nThat is specifically the argument made by modern Satanists who adhere to the Satanic Temple\u2019s Weltanschauung, by the way. Modern Satanism is an atheistic religion, with no belief in a literal God or Devil. But they consistently make the argument: is it not bigoted to say that morality MUST be rooted in superstition in order to be recognized by the state?\nIt is an interesting conundrum\u2026 although possibly one specific to the United States because of our laws concerning \u201cdeeply-held religious beliefs.\u201d\n+++ My position is that religion is a complex cultural system of moral tenets, symbols, historical traditions, and rituals that create a narrative of purpose and ethics. I think most people would agree that that captures at least PART of the concept of a religion. +++\nReligion can indeed include all of the above. But so can a belief system. The Soviet Union under Leninism/Stalinism/post-Stalinism also had all of the above. But these systems denied any claim that they had any \u201ctranscendent\u201d qualities. Quite the opposite; they claimed they were based on religion and the inexorable tide of human progress.\n+++ . In the United States, we have laws that give special power to \u201cdeeply help religious beliefs.\u201d +++\nI\u2019m not sure that\u2019s an accurate description of the state of affairs. Our government, while founded on a belief that our rights flow from a transcendent force, not by an act of government, does not favor one description or belief system as to the nature of this transcendent force.\nIt\u2019s also goes to great lengths to not compel a person to not perform actions against their religious beliefs. I\u2019m not sure that can be defined as \u201cspecial powers,\u201d though triumphalist faiths such as Islam do claim such rights on behalf of their adherents.\nBut I don\u2019t see why you would draw the conclusion that aetheists are not protected by our laws. Your rights inhere outside of man. Our law ultimately derive from this core belief. There is no requirement that you believe in the transcendent and the religious are granted no charter under this belief to violate your rights.\n+++ I do not hold any supernaturalistic beliefs. I don\u2019t believe in God, or gods, or souls, or \u201cdivine purpose.\u201d +++\nAnd you have the liberty to believe this based on the concept that your liberty transcends the right of an earthly power to deprive you of this belief.\nWhich I think works out rather well.\n+++ Are my moral beliefs somehow less valuable \u2014 less worthy of legal protection \u2014 only because they are not rooted in belief in an invisible sentient \u201cgod\u201d? +++\nI think that\u2019s another issue. I will say that the concept of your rights flowing from a transcendent power seems to be superior to a belief that man is the measure of all things. After all, non-religious belief systems have led to the world\u2019s greatest slaughters, as the 20th century bore witness to.\n+++ Modern Satanism is an atheistic religion +++\nIsn\u2019t Satan a transcendent being? God\u2019s opponent? Fallen angel?\nIf not, then who do you identify as Satan? Donald Trump? Nancy Pelosi? Bill Gates? Steve Jobs?\nIn the eyes of some, all have vied for the title.\n+++ is it not bigoted to say that morality MUST be rooted in superstition in order to be recognized by the state? +++\nYou\u2019ve salted the question with \u201csuperstition.\u201d It is not \u201cirrational\u201d to believe in a transcendent force.\nAnd I think the genius of our system is that belief in the transcendent. Your rights do not require the \u201cstate\u201d to \u201crecognize\u201d them. They are yours independent of the state.\n+++ since I don\u2019t think your country has the same laws +++\nI\u2019m an American! From Da Bronx!\nMe: \u201cIn the United States, we have laws that give special power to \u201cdeeply help religious beliefs.\u201d\u201d\nYou: \u201cI\u2019m not sure that\u2019s an accurate description of the state of affairs\u201d\nBurwell v. Hobby Lobby Stores, Inc.: Their argument was specifically rooted in the claim that their opposition to enabling certain types of contraception was based on their deeply held religious beliefs, and that therefore, on the basis of the guarantee of freedom to exercise religion, they need the ability to opt out of paying for insurance that covers those forms of contraception.\nIf they had been atheists who similarly were against abortion, and that this was a deeply-held SECULAR moral belief, their legal argument would have had no standing. That is the core of the problem. In many individual states, there are laws that specifically make allowances for \u201cdeeply held religious beliefs\u201d. The word \u201creligious\u201d is actually IN THE LAWS THEMSELVES. That\u2019s the problem. As long as these laws exist, and if we interpret religion as requiring belief in the spirit world, then you are de facto creating a system where people who do not believe in spirits are not covered by those laws.\nYou: \u201cI think that\u2019s another issue. I will say that the concept of your rights flowing from a transcendent power seems to be superior to a belief that man is the measure of all things.\u201d\nAnd it\u2019s your right to have that belief. I don\u2019t think it\u2019s your right to bake that belief into law in a secular society.\nYou: \u201cIsn\u2019t Satan a transcendent being?\u201d\nModern Satanists use the symbol of Satan as the literary and cultural figure to represent rebellion. They don\u2019t believe in a literal Satan. I\u2019ve written on this before, if you\u2019re interested in a quick summary:\nhttp://www.dailydot.com/politics/satanic-temple-interview/\n+++Their argument was specifically rooted in the claim that their opposition to enabling certain types of contraception was based on their deeply held religious beliefs, and that there, on the basis of the guarantee of freedom to exercise religion, they need the ability to opt out of paying for insurance that covers those forms of contraception. +++\nLet\u2019s be more precise about this issue as it impacts the discussion. Hobby Lobby objected to being forced to provide abortafacients, which kill a human in an early stage of development by preventing it from implanting in the womb of the mother.\nThere are many religions and belief systems that object to the killing of humans absent a strong moral justification. Some oppose killing under any circumstances. And a belief in morality does not require religion. The Soviet Union was aggressively anti-religious, but still regarded murder as immoral and punished it.\nNow, it\u2019s true that a \u201cCreator\u201d is given pride of place in the First Cause sweepstakes in the US; from this flows the concept of inalienable rights, which I personally think is a triumph of moral thinking.\nBut I also note that in such cases as a refusal to serve in the armed forces, you don\u2019t have to be religious to apply for CO status. You DO have to demonstrate a deep commitment to your beliefs, but that\u2019s also true if you claim exemption on religious grounds.\nI believe that at the core of your attempt to assign the status of religion to atheism is a belief that atheists are treated unfairly by the law. That may be true (though I think you\u2019d have to demonstrate that on a case by case basis), but I don\u2019t think the answer to the problem is to force compulsion on the religious by discarding the DOI and constitutional protections on the free exercise of your faith.\nBut regardless, I believe your attempt to assign the status of religion to a belief system fails because you\u2019re making a fundamental category mistake. Inherently, a belief in a transcendent force outside of nature is a fundamental characteristic of religion. Catholicism and Communism are two different things. Their belief systems are not the same.\nAnd Satan, if defined as a societal force, is not transcendent (though constantly being in a state of rebellion sounds exhausting)! He sounds like Marlon Brando in \u201cThe Wild One\u201d and I don\u2019t think Marlon was ever confused with a deity. Except maybe in \u201cDr. Moreau.\u201d\nNow, you may feel that a believe in a Big Daddy in the Sky is irrational and unscientific, but this is besides the point when you possess a belief in the transcendent. It why religious people are called \u201cfaithful.\u201d\nOn the other hand (and I\u2019m not religious), I think of Big Daddy in the Sky protecting my inalienable rights and say let him be.\nI think we may have to simply agree to disagree, my friend! You keep saying this,\n\u201cInherently, a belief in a transcendent force outside of nature is a fundamental characteristic of religion.\u201d\nAnd I think that is wrong. I think that it has been a historical coincidence that old religions have been rooted in mysticism and spiritualism. But that alone is not sufficient cause to believe that it is a NECESSARY component of religion. Up until a certain point, religions were all polytheistic: that didn\u2019t make polytheism a \u201cfundamental characteristic\u201d of religion, either.\nI\u2019ll leave you with one last thought: Please don\u2019t misunderstand or misrepresent my position by saying, \u201cyour attempt to assign the status of religion to atheism\u201d. This is the fundamental category error that I believe YOU are making. \u201cAtheism\u201d is a description of a set of possible belief systems. It is not a belief system. It is analogous to \u201ctheism\u201d, which is also not a belief system in itself, but rather a description that applies to a set of belief systems.\nOF COURSE \u201catheism\u201d isn\u2019t a religion. It has no set of symbols, it has no set of stories, it has no particular moral framework, and it has no narrative for explicating purpose. My argument is that one can have a belief system that does all of those things without superstition or the supernatural, and that there is no meaningful reason to not assign that kind of system the label of \u201creligion\u201d except by inherent prejudice against unbelievers.\nBut, I understand that you disagree. It\u2019s a fundamental definitional disagreement. As long as there are laws on the books that tell me that people with \u201cdeeply held religious beliefs\u201d get special consideration that does not apply to \u201cdeeply held non-religious beliefs\u201d, I will contend that we need to allow for the existence of atheistic religions. As I said earlier, if it were not for the legal ramifications of calling something a \u201creligious belief\u201d \u2014 if our constitution protected the \u201cfree practice of belief-systems\u201d instead of the \u201cfree practice of religion\u201d \u2014 then I wouldn\u2019t care two wags of a finger what the label was.\n+++ You keep saying this \u201cInherently, a belief in a transcendent force outside of nature is a fundamental characteristic of religion.\u201d +++\nYes. Any attempt to assign a non-transcendent belief system to the category of religion leads to absurdity. Stalin would have sent you to the Gulag for this. Mao to the Gobi desert. Pol Pot to a killing field.\n+++ . I think that it has been a historical coincidence that old religions have been rooted in mysticism and spiritualism. +++\nA belief in the possibility of the transcendent seems to be an inherent characteristic of our species, as is a moral sense. Humans cannot not speculate on the transcendent and must think in moral terms. To not do so is to be diagnosed with a mental disease or flaw.\nThis does not mean this belief is true, but it\u2019s always there. To assign the transcendent to a belief system destroys both reason and language. You cannot do it. When you do, you end up descending to the absurd.\n+++ Up until a certain point, religions were all polytheistic: that didn\u2019t make polytheism a \u201cfundamental characteristic\u201d of religion, either. +++\nWe don\u2019t know that. It is possible that initial beliefs focused on single transcendent force, then evolved into a belief in multiple forces, then later \u201cdevolved\u201d back into monotheism. Absent a time machine, we will never know this.\n+++\u201cAtheism\u201d is a description of a set of possible belief systems. It is not a belief system. +++\nAtheism IS a belief system. It is a belief system that states the transcendent is an invalid assumption. Atheism is not anarchic nor devoid of morality.\nBut by inherent definition, it can never be a religion. Again, to make this claim results in a logical absurdity.\n+++ It has no set of symbols, it has no set of stories, it has no particular moral framework, and it has no narrative for explicating purpose. +++\nCertainly it does! Communism had its \u201cBible,\u201d (Das Kapital), its \u201cMoses\u201d (Marx), heroes and stories, the Soviet Union had a legal code, which was a reflection of an atheistic moral belief system, its rituals (vast military parades, celebrations of the Bolshevik uprising, Politburo watching on Lenin\u2019s tomb and much, much more.\nBut to say the Soviet Union claimed Communism was a religion leads you to the absurd.\n+++ My argument is that one can have a belief system that does all of those things without superstition or the supernatural, +++\nAnd I have just agreed with you!\n+++ As long as there are laws on the books that tell me that people with \u201cdeeply held religious beliefs\u201d get special consideration that does not apply to \u201cdeeply held non-religious beliefs\u201d, I will contend that we need to allow for the existence of atheistic religions. +++\nYou are arguing for an absurdity. What you CAN argue for is that non-transcendent belief systems receive equal legal footing with religious systems.\nOf course, you run up against the problem that you deny our inalienable rights, and I don\u2019t think you\u2019ll garner much support for this concept.\nAlso, you have to argue that non-religious people have been denied their equality of the law under the DOI and the Constitution and that\u2019s a difficult case to make.\nAnd since I\u2019m not a lawyer, I won\u2019t attempt to make it!\nAlright, again I\u2019m going to begin with the observation that we simply have definitional differences of opinion, so this probably won\u2019t get anywhere in terms of using rational discourse to tip the scales of the discussion to one side or another. YYou think the word \u201creligion\u201d requires superstitious/supernatural beliefs, I do not. You repeating the word \u201cABSURDITY!\u201d over and over isn\u2019t evidence that you are correct, because it doesn\u2019t seem absurd to me. And me explaining that there are people who claim to belong to \u201catheistic religions\u201d is not something you accept as evidence, because you will simply claim that they are mistaken. So there you have it. We can agree to disagree.\nHowever, having said that, I do want to correct a particular point where I think you are misunderstanding what I said \u2014 not so much to \u201cconvince\u201d you of anything, but just to make sure that you aren\u2019t misunderstanding my position. (I\u2019m fine with you disagreeing with me, as long as you understand what you\u2019re disagreeing with! LOL)\nMe: \u201cAtheism\u201d is a description of a set of possible belief systems. It is not a belief system.\nYou: Atheism IS a belief system.\nI think you\u2019re not hearing or understanding my point here. Atheism is not ONE BELIEF SYSTEM. The word \u201catheism\u201d does not refer to a single systematic worldview. I don\u2019t know how to phrase it any more clearly than that. The label \u201catheism\u201d does not refer to a particular view of the universe, or a particular moral framework. It is a description that accurately includes many, many, many different views of the universe, views of morality, and views of the purpose of life. When I say it\u2019s \u201cnot a belief system\u201d that\u2019s what I mean: it is not a specific, single, concrete narrative.\nRather, it is an attribute that applies to a great number of narratives or \u201cworldviews\u201d\u2026 all of which can be described as \u201catheistic worldviews\u201d.\n\u201cTheism\u201d, similarly, is not a SINGLE belief system. You can be a Christian theist, or a Jewish theist, or you can be a theist who believes in the Greek pantheon! All of these are different \u201cbelief systems\u201d, but they are all \u201ctheistic\u201d belief systems.\nSo, if you still don\u2019t understand what I mean when I say \u201catheism is not a belief system\u201d, then we should probably drop it. I literally don\u2019t know how to make the point any more clearly.\nI really enjoyed this article. As a sort of \u201cwannabe\u201d Wiccan, I am attracted to that religion because of it\u2019s respect for the Earth and natural forces, and the approach to womanhood (maiden/mother/crone). I have to stop short of ceremonies, but not by much. I view general religion as having caused a lot of strife in the world, which to me is purely just sad, but I\u2019m also trained in science, so I\u2019m OK with believing the universe doesn\u2019t need a God to have formed. Long story short, it\u2019s nice to see the spectrum described as a true spectrum, not a binary either/or.\nIt\u2019s truly difficult to communicate with you\u2026 You invite me some concepts (\u201cpersonnel God, genuine, authentic\u201d) I never use.\nWhen you use the Law it\u2019s firm\u2026 not an interpretation, an flying argument, some arbitrarily words.\nIn European Union, particularly in France Religion is a political subject. It\u2019s absolutely not a personal construction. You can do what you want, but every organizations are watched by State.\nI think that we don\u2019t speak about the same reality when we speak each other Religion. Because the concept and the legal framework are very different.\nYou are American. I am French. We are different. Don\u2019t be sorry. It doesn\u2019t matter.\nI am enjoying our dialogue! I hope you are as well. It is very enlightening to me to be challenged with some of these ideas that may very well spring from differences in our cultures \u2014 things that I may otherwise take for granted, or not question about my own perspective.\nI agree that the whole concept of a government being able to decide what is or is not a religion is very strange from an American perspective. Yet, I also must even question exactly how that works in France. Maybe you can help me understand people\u2019s attitudes about it.\nWhen you talk about \u201cThe Law\u201d, do you mean political laws from government, which say \u201cChristianity is a religion, but Pasta Worship is not\u201d? Or are you referring to religious laws, such as \u201cChristians must accept Christ as God in order to enter heaven\u201d or \u201cTo be a Jew you cannot eat pork\u201d?\nThe second category (religious law) does seem at least partially up to interpretation. Some Christian philosophers believe that it is a sin to work on the Sabbath, others do not. The status of many \u201cOld Testament\u201d commands are somewhat in contention. There is not an official judicial body to decide these things, except for Catholics (where the Pope decides). But even some Protestants consider Catholicism to be \u201cnot authentic Christianity.\u201d\nThe first category (government law) is not as ambiguous. But help me to understand: does the government define what religions exist (e.g. Christianity but not Satanism, for example), or does it actually define WHAT QUALITIES someone must possess to be a member of that religion?\nIf the first is the case but the second is not (which I suspect is the fact of the matter), then I have to ask: What if someone in France says, \u201cI am a Christian, but in my practice of Christianity it is not required to believe in God! I am a Christian Atheist!\u201d\nDoes the government not recognize that person as a Christian? By what laws is that defined?\nI am enjoying too. 3 or 4 years ago, I had discussions with the virtual members of GCN (Gay Christian Network). It was interesting, but very limited. I was banned out of the Forum just \u2019cause I have written something about American Nation. I argue that many French, German, Italian, Spanish\u2026 died for the Patrotisms through P\u00e9tain, Hitler, Mussolini, Franco\u2026 It\u2019s so silly, I was banned ! I was one of the only man who is not anglo-saxon. There are no men or women from Qu\u00e9bec, no spanish-speaking guys, no Native Nation\u2019s men\u2026 only WASP or closed. A girl \u2013 not gay \u2013 living in London and French take care of me (all in the virtual world of the Net). She had to create another Network more open-mind. I\u2019m quite shy, so very sensible. It was not a happy time.\nIt\u2019s more more pleasant to discuss with you.\nIn France, we have a big History with Religions. During French Monarchy the State (\u201cI\u2019m the State\u201d said Louis XIV) is the \u201colder Daughter of the Church\u201d. Church is only the Roman-Catholic Church. Before him, the King Henri IX stop many centuries of Relgions\u2019war (between Protestants and Catholics) with the Edict of Nantes (1598). The Roi-Soleil revoke it (1685)\nThe French Republic (born with the French Revolution) decide to create statues for Jews and Protestants( 1791). The Empire of Napoleon create the citizenship for Jews and Protestant. It called the Concordat (1801). The French Republic decide to separate Religions and State (1905) through a very French concept the Laity . It\u2019s confirm by an inscription inside the Constitution of the Fifth Republic of France by De Gaulle (1958).\nActually, everybody can choose, change for ever or for one day religion, philosophy, or nothing as he wants.\nIf the State is separate with the Religions is not sensibleness. Religions can indocrinate, recruit or kill some citizen. State protects them. All the relgious, a-relgious, philosophical, cultural associations are watched by Inner Minister. Especially for the Sects an inter-ministerial Agency is watching it\u2026 but it dosen\u2019t work for the recruiting of Daesh soldiers in Syria and Irak. Many are French.\nIt was the part one.\nNow the second part : religious law.\nEach Religion can write his own Law. Thorah for Jews and Christian. Kuran for Muslim. Veda for Buddhism and Hinduism\u2026\nIt\u2019s not correct to say that only Roman-Catholics have some juridical court. Jews have a court too (in France it\u2019s the Consistoire). But the verdict of this religious tribunals have no impact in the citizen daily life of this believers\u2026 but for the Faith. When you are banned out of your community. It\u2019s difficult to live. You are gay like me, you know that experience.\nI am Christian. It is rare for a French Citizen. It\u2019s more rare for a gay men. It\u2019s extremely rare for an ecologist.\nI was born Roman-Catholic. I did studies of Theology in the same time I was banned because I\u2019m gay from Roman-Catholic Church. Now I\u2019m Old-Catholic (from Union of Utrecht).\nI really know the rules of the Roman-Catholic Church. It\u2019s codified in the .\nIt\u2019s difficult to speak about all the Christians (the Christianity). There are many differents between confessions. For exemple : the LGBTI will go on Hell by Baptism, Pentecotist, Traditionnalist Catholics. In my Church, there is no problem. LGBTI are not worst or better than straight. They are being.\nWho is christian ? It\u2019s a big question that Saint Augustin, Saint Vincent de L\u00e9rins, Saint Ir\u00e9n\u00e9e de Lyon or Saint Thomas d\u2019Aquin have reflexions.\nThey are a strictly rule from a Council of all Christian (except Armenians, Copts of Egypt and Ethiopia who accept it, after) : the Credo of Nicea and Constantinople ( 325 and 381). It\u2019s recognize by all the Christians Churches.\nOf course, we can find some people who are think Jesus is just a man. It\u2019s OK. In fact, they are quitte silly ; they don\u2019t know nestorism, monophysitism and augustinian heresia\u2026. And many of this guy constructed the United States of America. This \u201cmad\u201d familly were ostracised from Europe (most from UK, France, Germany and Switzerland) create some out-of-law communities.\nThe Constitution of USA and French R\u00e9publique are lay. The both. But the sense of this laity is different\u2026 maybe opposite ?\nI\u2019m not agree with your chart. Polytheist, animist, agnostic miss your analysis.\nJews, Christian and Muslim must believe in God. In the opposite case there are not Jewish, Christian and Muslim believers. Religions are based on Laws ( respectively Torah + Midrashim, Pentateuch + Gospel, Coran + Hadiths ).\nBuddhists and Hinduists are not atheistic. They are polypolypolytheistic. They are 4 big ways inside the Buddhism (Great Vehicule, Diamond Vehicule, Tibetian Vehicule, Ancient Vehicule). The \u201cWestern\u201d Buddhists say about them-selves a-religious, but in Asia (East and Far-East) it\u2019s very codified.\nWho is yet deist ??? The last one died with the \u201cSupreme Being\u201d (l\u2019\u00catre Supr\u00eame) after the Terror of the French Revolution\u2019s theoreticians Saint-Just, Robespierre and Marat. The Freemassons don\u2019t believe it anymore in France. Most of them are really atheistic. They don\u2019t believe in the Great Architect of Universe (it\u2019s more scotish).\nThe Religion is relative to the religious policy of a Country. For exemple in European Union, the Church of Scientology is not a religion, except in Spain, in Portugal, in Sweden, in Hungary, in Croatia and in Slovenia. But everywhere it\u2019s a sect. It\u2019s a closed case for the Mormons.\nAtheism is an a-religion. Michel ONFRAY or Andr\u00e9 COMTE-SPONVILLE are theoriticians of the a-theism.\nDamien, I understand what you are saying\u2026 but you are mistaken. The entire point of the chart is, in fact, to point out that it is a common misconception that people have, to believe that \u201catheism\u201d is an \u201ca-religion\u201d. There are, in fact, atheistic religions. There are a great number of them. You can simply assert, I suppose, that you do not think they are \u201creal\u201d religions.. but I do not think it is your place to do so.\nAlso, there are many people in the United States who identify themselves as \u201cdeists\u201d, in the tradition of believing in a \u201carchitect of the universe\u201d who does not participate or interfere. They do not see themselves as belonging to any particular religious organization but have discovered the label \u201cdeist\u201d and adopted it for themselves. Once again, I suppose you can somehow claim they are not \u201creal deists\u201d but I would wonder, again, how it is your place to make such definitive claims.\nAre you sure you \u201cunderstand\u201d what I said ? Do you think I have not enough knowledge to argue my sentences. The philosophers I quote exist. They are still alive.\nI never wrote \u201creal religions\u201d or \u201creal deists\u201d. You invented me this words. They are not mine.\nThe laws (religious or civic) are the laws. Every people out of any acts, rules or charters do what they want to create. Of course they might definite themselves as they want.\nDo I claim anythings ? No. Who am I to claim anything ?\nAnd I finish to say like you Atheism is a religion\u2026 but not through the Laws.\nI am sorry! It is absolutely possible that I misunderstood what you were saying. My impression was that you were saying that to define yourself as a Christian, Jew, etc, you must adhere to a particular set of proscriptions (e.g. Gospel, Torah, etc). However many people interpret these texts differently, and some of them do not even envisage the texts as \u201creligious law\u201d per se. Thus, you seem to be (arbitrarily) defining Christianity within a narrow band of the many ways that one can interpret \u201cfollowing the teachings of Jesus\u201d. You did not use the word \u201creal Christian\u201d, but this is what I inferred when you seemed to imply that anyone who does not believe (e.g.) that Jesus was the literal incarnation of a personal God CANNOT be a Christian. Thus, you seem to imply that \u201cChristian Atheists\u201d are not \u2026 whatever word you would like? true? real? genuine? \u2026 Christians. However, I question whether your particular decision on how to define \u201cChristian\u201d is any more authentic.\nSecondly, you said \u201cWho is yet deist?\u201d I thought you intended to imply that there are no people who currently identify themselves as deists. That is simply not true. Once again, you never used the phrase \u201creal deists\u201d. However, if you assert that there are no deists, but it is the case that some people who call themselves deists, it is merely a logical conclusion that you do not think they are genuine.\nFinally, I do not understand your final assertion about atheism is \u201ca religion\u201d. There exist many world-views that include no god. All of them are atheism, but they are not all the same set of beliefs, nor are they all the same set of laws. If I assume for the moment that religions are defined by a set of laws (I do not agree with this, but you asserted it and for the sake of argument I can take it as a premise), then clearly Atheism is not any one religion, but a vast possible set of religions. The following statements are, linguistically, exactly parallel:\nTheism isn\u2019t a religion, but it is a characteristic of belief that describes many religions\nAtheism isn\u2019t a religion, but it is a characteristic of belief that describes many religions as well.\nTo call \u201catheism\u201d A religion is quite simply a category error. It would be like someone saying, \u201cBelief in God is A religion.\u201d It is not. It is a property of some religions\u2026 and not even all of them.\nAtheism 101: Is atheism a belief, a world-view, or a religion? says:\n[\u2026] religions, and the fact that religions can be either theistic or atheistic, you may want to read Atheism is not the opposite of religion by Greg [\u2026]",

Depending upon their structural features, the MTases can be further classified into different classes; we consider exclusively the largest class of MTases, the Rossmann-fold MTases. It has been shown that the nucleoside cofactor-binding Rossmann enzymes, particularly the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD)-, flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD)-, and SAM-binding MTases enzymes, share common binding motifs that include a Gly-rich loop region that interacts with the cofactor and a highly conserved acidic residue (Asp/Glu) that interacts with the ribose moiety of the cofactor. Here, we observe that the Gly-rich loop region of the Rossmann MTases adapts a specific type II\u2032 \u03b2-turn in the proximity of the cofactor (<4 \u00c5), and it appears to be a key feature of these superfamilies. Additionally, we demonstrate that the conservation of this \u03b2-turn could play a critical role in the enzyme\u2013cofactor interaction, thereby shedding new light on the structural conformation of the Gly-rich loop region from Rossmann MTases.",

The traditional ceremony was presided over by a Shinto priest.\nGSSG Solar, LLC announced the financial close and ground-breaking of its initial mega-solar project in Japan. The 47 MW solar project will be built in the Nagano Prefecture of Japan and will sell power to Chubu Electric Power Company through a 20-year feed in tariff (FIT) structured under Japan\u2019s \u201cAct on Special Measures Concerning Procurement of Renewable Electric Energy by Operators of Electric Utilities\u201d which came into effect in July 2012. The project is the first in a 170 MW portfolio of solar projects invested in by GSSG Solar Partners, LP to start construction, and is expected to be complete by the end of 2017.\nIn collaboration with a number of local stakeholders including the developer, the project received financing commitment from Shinsei Bank, Ltd for both construction and the term of the project. GSSG Solar Partners, LP is the equity sponsor of the transaction.\nGSSG Solar, LLC has assessed over 2.5 GW of potential projects under the FIT regime of Japan, and the Suwa project demonstrates the core attributes that are essential in the evaluation of solar project investments worldwide.\n\u201cThe [Suwa] project fundamentals, including high solar irradiance, minimally disturbed and contiguous land area, strong local support, and an experienced solar developer make this project an exemplar of the investments we are making here in Japan,\u201d said Charlie McDaniel, Director of GSSG Solar. The project was developed by Sun Holdings, Ltd and is being built on an abandoned 18-hole golf course, leased from the original landowners.\nThe project will utilize high efficiency monocrystalline modules from California-based SunPower along with local engineering and construction services from established Japanese partners. The solar production from the site is expected to offset the electricity needs and the associated emissions of approximately 9,600 local residents.\n\u201cAs a firm dedicated to investing in solar projects globally, we recognize that success is built upon each individual project we pursue and local partnerships we enter,\u201d said Tomakin Archambault, CEO of GSSG Solar, \u201cWe appreciate the contributions of each of our international partners, the national leadership of the Japanese government, and the local support from the community of Suwa in making clean, renewable energy a reality. We look forward to replicating this success not only on our other projects in Japan, but globally in the markets that we target.\u201d\nThe ground-breaking reception was held on April 21, 2016 and was attended by over 150 community members and all major project stakeholders. The traditional ceremony was presided over by a Shinto priest.\nGSSG Solar is a full-service solar investment and financial advisory firm comprised of a select team of experts with solar and financial service backgrounds.

        "raw_content": "Story Courtesy Of Graham Gremore\nA man in Chicago has been accused of not disclosing to his partner that he was HIV-positive, despite knowing he was infected, the Chicago Tribune reports.\nThe 25-year-old has been charged by Cook County prosecutors with criminal transmission of HIV. According to prosecutors, he allegedly engaged in unprotected sex with his partner after repeatedly denying that he was infected.\nThe man is now being held in jail on a $75,000 bail. In the state of Illinois, knowingly exposing a person to HIV is considered a Class 2 felony, and is subject to three to seven years in prison and a fine of up to $25,000.\nAccording to the CDC, more than 30 U.S. states have criminal HIV transmission laws, most of which were implemented during the early years of the AIDS crisis, which punish people who knowingly \u2014 and sometimes unknowingly \u2014 expose their partners to HIV without disclosing their statuses beforehand, even if their partners do not contract the virus. Punishments can range from hefty fines, to mandating a person register as a sex offender, to as much as 25 years in prison.\nBut are these sorts of laws fair or even effective? Many HIV/AIDS activists say no.\nIn October 2012, the HIV Medicine Association of the Infectious Diseases Society of America called for the repeal of all laws criminalizing HIV, writing: \u201cPolicies and laws that create HIV-specific crimes or that impose penalties for persons who are HIV-infected are unjust and harmful to public health around the world.\u201d It also argued that the laws only contribute to stigmatization and discrimination of people living with HIV/AIDS.\nSean Strub of the Sero Project, a group that is dedicated to fighting HIV stigma, echoed this sentiment this week when he told Windy City Times, \u201cHIV criminalization is making the epidemic worse because of how it drives stigma, and discourages people at greatest risk from getting tested and those who test positive from accessing treatment.\u201d\n\u201cThese prosecutions typically have nothing to do with HIV transmission,\u201d he added. \u201cThey are most often about whether or not the person with HIV can prove they disclosed prior to having sex. Whether a condom was used, or the person\u2019s viral load was even detectable, doesn\u2019t matter, nor does the science.\u201d\nStrub also noted that there are no laws punishing the transmission of more widespread sexually transmitted diseases and infections.\n\u201cMore U.S. women died last year of cervical cancer from strains of HPV than died of AIDS from HIV,\u201d he said. \u201cBut we\u2019re not prosecuting people for failing to disclose they carry HPV.\u201d\nStrub believes laws against HIV transmission are designed to unfairly target gay men and other minority groups.\n\u201cUnlike HIV, [HPV] isn\u2019t specifically associated with gay men, people of color and people who use drugs,\u201d he explained. \u201cHIV criminalization is about targeting specific groups of people, not about preventing disease.\u201d\nWhat do you think? Is it time we stopped criminalizing HIV?

Alaniz said, \u201cHe would take these women out to desolate highway areas, and once he got them there he would take them out of his truck and execute them.\u201d\nAll four victims had been shot in the head with a handgun.\nThe victim that escaped Ortiz said that Ortiz took her to his home and started acting \u201cweird.\u201d At a gas station, in Ortiz\u2019s pickup truck, Ortiz pointed a black pistol at the victim. Ortiz allegedly tried to stop the victim from escaping the truck. According to the complaint, the victim pulled off her shirt to escape and ran toward a state trooper.\nState troopers found Ortiz hiding in the bed of a truck about an hour later.\nAccording to the prosecutors, Ortiz picked up a Jane Doe in Laredo that very same night that the fifth victim had escaped. The prosecutors said that Ortiz drove her to the city limits and shot her in the head multiple times.\nOrtiz confessed to killing the four women.

The following Ted Talk\u2019s helped me come forward about my diagnosis of bipolar 2 disorder. Each Talk is gives you a different outlook on mental illness that is both informing and inspiring.\nThis Ted Talk is by far my favorite! Saks is diagnosed with Chronic Schizophrenia. She shares her story about living with Schizophrenia, time spent institutionalized and the progress she has made over the last 30 years. I have watched this Ted Talk multiple times. Saks is one of my greatest role models, and she gives hope to everyone who has ever been told they are incapable of success. She is an inspiration.\nThe doctors gave me a prognosis of \u201cgrave.\u201d At best to live in a Board and Care, and work menial jobs\u2026Instead, I am a Chair Professor of Law, Psychology and Psychiatry at the USC Gould School of Law. I have many close friends, and a beloved husband, Will, who is here with us today.\n-Elyn Saks\nThis is a great Ted Talk, with great advice for anyone who is struggling with a suicidal family member or friend. Kevin Briggs gives an emotional talk about the suicides that occur on San Francisco\u2019s Golden Gate Bridge. Briggs tells the story of his time as a California Highway Patrol Officer in charge of the Golden Gate Bridge, and what he learned about suicide.\nWhat would you do if your friend or family member is suicidal? What would you say? In my experience it is not just the talking you do, but the listening.\n-Kevin Briggs\nI love this woman and this Ted Talk! Ruby Wax adds humor to her struggle with Depression, while emphasizing the need to reduce the stigma on mental illness. I believe, it is important to add humor to such a serious topic, it helps people to relax and become more open about the issue.\nWhy, when you have a mental disease, is it always considered an act of imagination? Why is it that every organ in your body can get sick and you get sympathy except the brain?\n-Ruby Wax\nThis Ted Talk relayed information that I was completely oblivious to. Thomas Insel uses his \u2018doctorish swagger\u2019 to relay facts about mental illness, and suicide, while encouraging viewers to comprehend the need for mental health awareness in society.\nUnderstanding mental illness allows us to treat it.\n-Thomas Insel\nThis Ted Talk is one of my favorites. It gives a more global perspective on the mental health crisis. Patel makes it clear, the United States is not the only country that stigmatizes mental illness.\nIt might surprise some of you here, as it did me, to discover that suicide is at the top of the list of the leading causes of death among young people in all countries of the world, including the poorest countries in the world.\n-Vikram Patel\nThis Ted Talk is actually a Ted Talk Audition, but Comedian Joshua Walters makes it worthwhile. He uses humor to share his story about his diagnosis of Bipolar Disorder and the moment he thought he was \u201cJesus Christ.\u201d\nI used my mental illness, to embrace my mental \u201cstillness.\n-Joshua Walters\nFor more mental health content follow me @hannahdblum\nTagged with:awareness, BiPolar, Community, Global, Humor, LOVE, Mental Health, Mental Illness, positive, Stigma, Suicide, Ted Talks, TedTalks, Video\nPrevious PostThe Moment I Realized Mental Illness Is Real\nNext PostA Love Story at a Mental Hospital: We Weren\u2019t Falling in Love, We Were Falling in Life",

        "raw_content": "Standing on Shoulders\nTags: basketball, confirmation class, Dean Smith, innovation, Kentucky, March Madness, North Carolina, youth ministry\nThis morning I am teaching Confirmation class to some fifty 6th graders. So of course, I was thinking about basketball \ud83d\ude09\nThat much is normal. What is not normal is that I was thinking about North Carolina basketball\u2026.in a positive light! Some of you won\u2019t understand, but members of Big Blue Nation (University of Kentucky fans) are raised from birth to understand that the Tar Heels are the enemy!\nHow did I get there? This morning\u2019s class was on our doctrinal distinctives. I was thinking about how we are often able to see because we stand on other\u2019s shoulders. For example, John Wesley brought to the church an understanding from Scripture of God as a loving Father, but standing on the shoulders of others helped him see. Luther and Calvin are examples of those who had gone before and given great insight to the church.\nAnd so I was thinking about Dean Smith, past coach of the North Carolina Tar Heels. Dean Smith is credited with so many innovations we now take as normal:\nHuddling at the free throw line before a free throw attempt\nPointing a finger at the guy who made the assist\nGiving the \u201ctired\u201d signal to the coach when a player needs a rest\nUsing multiple defenses in a game\nUsing the point guard to call out the defensive sets\nAnd perhaps the most infamous, the ball control offense. Dean Smith managed to make the game so boring by effectively running the four corner offense that the NCAA instituted a shot clock to speed up play.\nThe kind of basketball that I and countless other fans love today \u2013 that of aggressive, fast-paced offense would not have been possible without Dean Smith\u2019s extremely effective use of the rules of that day. In fact, it occurs to me now that when Kentucky wins their 8th National Championship on April 2nd, they may owe a sort of a debt of gratitude to Dean Smith!\nI stand on the shoulders of more people than I can count. My dad\u2019s integrity and humility. My mother\u2019s hospitality and passion for the overlooked and the outcast. Dr. Kinlaw\u2019s preaching. Jeff Blake\u2019s encouragement. Hule Goddard\u2019s mentoring. Rev. Slone\u2019s teaching. Annamarie Hamilton\u2019s grace. And on and on. I did a Facebook post once mentioning many who had invested in me\u2026and on whose shoulders I stand to see.\nWhose shoulders do you stand on?\nAnd this may be another whole post, but while Dean Smith changed the game for the better\u2026the final result looks like nothing he envisioned. As others stand on my shoulders and on yours, can we let them improve on what we have created even when it feels like dismantling? Looking back, how do we learn from those who went before to allow others to come after?\nBefore \u201cThe Hunger Games\u201d\nTags: Asbury Seminary, conversation, Julie Clawson, Relevant magazine, Seedbed, Suzanne Collins, The Hunger Games, youth ministry\nI see that people from five countries checked in on this blog in the last seven days. But since Suzanne Collins\u2019 series on The Hunger Games has now been translated into 26 languages, I feel pretty safe in saying this pretty broadly: \u201cYou and I have been hearing about The Hunger Games for quite awhile now.\u201d\nHere in Tulsa and all over the U.S., people are camped out waiting for the midnight premiere to begin. What are they waiting to see?\nA cultural event (ala Avatar, Twilight or the Lord of the Rings)?\nA film about teenagers killing one another?\nA new teen romance?\nAs uncomfortable as I am with a movie that normalizes teens killing one another, this movie promises to provide some rich opportunity for important conversation. (If you are going to this film just for the entertainment value, I really hope you will check yourself and reconsider!)\nI want to call your attention to three websites have done a great job setting the table for us to \u201cplunder Egypt\u201d on this film.\nThe first is Julie Clawson\u2019s blog with the great article found here: http://julieclawson.com/2012/03/16/the-world-is-watching-the-hunger-games/\nJulie\u2019s insights are sharp. To restate them in my own words, I particularly appreciated her thought that this film event may create a unique opportunity to discuss oppression and and injustice in a context that has not been demagogued or dismissed yet. I also enjoyed her highlighting the irony of making a film that fights against the exploitation of teens as objects while objectifying and exploiting the young teen movie stars of the film. Julie has a book out on The Hunger Games and the Gospel. I have not read it, but I\u2019ll bet it is worth a look.\nThe second website is Seedbed.com. Put together by Asbury Seminary, it promises to be an outstanding collection of blogs and posts. J.D. Walt and others in the Seedbed Team have created a conversation guide for the Hunger Games ready for digital download. It appears to be free. Check it out here: http://store.seedbed.com/products/hunger-games\nThis last one (from Relevant magazine) focuses on community and faith as possible discussion points. http://www.relevantmagazine.com/culture/film/features/28682-let-the-hunger-games-begin\nI\u2019d love to hear your thoughts over the next couple of weeks as you engage with this film and with the young people in your sphere of influence.\nWho needs to know that you love them?\n\u201cFace time and think time make a difference\u201c.\nFrom an Edward Jones commercial\nTags: Celtic, community, culture, Dr. George Hunter, neo-barbarian, Rome, St. Patrick's Day, The Celtic Way of Evangelism, Thomas Cahill, youth ministry\nI did very little studying in high school and backed into a history minor in college. I took the two required courses and discovered I loved the teachers in that department. So I signed up for more. By the time I started to acquire study skills I was halfway to a minor. As a result, I know just enough history to make me dangerous. Deep dives in some areas, pretty sketchy in others.\nMy knowledge of St. Patrick and/or the Irish is pretty limited. I know enough to understand that our culture wears green on March 17. I have a Celtic prayer book that I sometimes use. And I know that the Irish club soccer team from Lexington, KY I often played against in the 80s and early 90s tended to play in the air instead of the ground, even thought they were not particularly tall.\nBeyond that, I have been intrigued by Thomas Cahill\u2019s book, How the Irish Saved Civilization, but not enough to read it cover to cover. And I have really appreciated Dr. George Hunter\u2019s book, The Celtic Way of Evangelism: How Christianity Can Win the West\u2026Again. This one I have read several times.\nTo oversimplify Hunter\u2019s thesis, he suggests that we live in a culture closer to the Celtic world (spiritual, but without knowledge or awareness of Christ) rather than Rome. As a result, St. Patrick\u2019s community-based, relationally driven discipleship along the way to evangelism will be more effective than the proclamational evangelism that precedes discipleship that developed due to persecution in the Roman world.\nLet me quote from the preface of his book\u2026and tell me what you think about what he is saying and how it might impact youth ministry in 2012.\n\u201cThe Church, in the western world, faces populations who are increasingly \u201csecular\u201d \u2014 people with no Christian memory, who don\u2019t know what we Christians are talking about. These populations are increasingly \u201curban\u201d \u2014 and out of touch with God\u2019s natural revelation.\u201d These populations are increasingly \u201cpost-modern\u201d; they have graduated from Enlightenment ideology and are more peer-driven, feeling driven, and right-brained than their forebears.\nThese populations are increasingly \u201cneo-barbarian\u201d; they lack \u201crefinement\u201d or \u201cclass\u201d and their lives are often out of control. These populations are increasingly receptive\u2013exploring worldview options from Astrology to Zen\u2013and are often looking \u201cin all the wrong places\u201d to make sense of their lives and find their soul\u2019s true home.\nMany Western church leaders are in denial; they plan and do church as though next year will be 1957. Furthermore, most of the Western church leaders who are not in denial do not know how to engage the epidemic numbeers of secular, post-modern, neo-barbarians outside (and inside) their churches. Moreover, the very few who do know what to do are intuitive geniuses who cannot teach others what they know (or charismatic leaders who cannot yet be cloned).\u201d\nAny thoughts? Is he on the right track? I really respect this blog\u2019s audience\u2026what thoughts, questions or insights are you willing to share?\nTags: Big Blue Nation, bracket, College basketball, contest, March Madness, NCAA, youth ministry\nFor years I challenged the kids in my youth group to compete with me\u2026.to try and outpick me with their own March Madness bracket. Anyone who did better than I would get a free meal with me at a fast food restaurant of their choice.\nIt wasn\u2019t that I was all that good \u2013 althoughI did okay. (I am a college basketball fan \u2013 a long-time member of Big Blue Nation! I grew up in central where people learn their basketball before they learn to talk.) It just didn\u2019t matter. I got to share an experience with a bunch of students for the month of March. It had legs to continue year after year. Bragging rights were a big deal. Sometimes the most unexpected people won. Posting the bracket copies on my office door created a lot of traffic on Sundays.\nAnd every time I lost, I won. I got to take a student to dinner\u2026.and they got to brag about it.\nSelection Sunday is tomorrow. Feel free to steal the idea and change it to fit!\nTags: Coach Connie, confirmands, confirmation, faithful, high mileage, Honda Civic DX, Old Faithful\nThat\u2019s my mom\u2019s name for this Civic actually. And since she and dad owned it for the first 280,000 miles or so of her life I suppose she gets that right. Anyway, the name stuck. And Old Faithful she has been.\nIn 1998 my parents gifted her to me and I drove her around 15,000 miles or so over the next two years. She ran like a dream. But an impending move, a fender-bender, and a failing alternator convinced me to let her go to one of my youth who was making a long commute in a four wheel drive full-size pickup. Mechanically inclined, he was delighted to pay me $50 and take the car.\nTwo years ago (and a decade later) a chance phone conversation led me to discover that the young man who bought the Civic had just bought another car. I called him and offered $100 sight unseen for the vehicle. It took a little money to get her ready for my kids to drive, but not too bad for a car pushing 330,000 miles.\nFor the last two years, first my daughter and now my son have used her to commute to school. Until last night. At 357,233 miles Old Faithful decided it was time to retire for good. As I sit here waiting for the tow truck (75 minutes so far) I am remembering\u2026.and reflecting on faithfulness.\nThat was going to be it for today\u2019s post. Just a fluff nostalgia piece on my old Civic DX.\nBUT\u2026reflecting on faithfulness takes me back to this morning\u2019s confirmation class. Coach Connie (working with youth and children in our church now for 44 years on June 1. Chaplain for Miss America pageant for 34 years) was telling the stories of 126 years of faithfulness (www.fumctulsa.org) since a group of Indians and settlers came together to start a church in \u201cTulsey Town.\u201d\nWe saw the apron that Mother Mobery used to collect the weapons at the door so her husband could preach. We heard the stories of the Red Brick revival and our church becoming a hospital during the race riots. We heard again about the Joash chest walk in 1929 when people gave belongings such as silver, jewelry,anything of value to save the church. And many more. This church has been faithful and home to the faithful.\nBut more than stories, we saw and heard from the passionate, godly FAITHFUL Coach Connie as she loved on a room full of confirmands.\nA faint allegory and a rich reflection of the Father\u2019s faithfulness. Thanks, Lord, for giving me opportunity and eyes to see.\nHave you seen faithfulness this week?",

        "raw_content": "Recent excavations at Highland\u2014the historic, Charlottesville home of the nation\u2019s fifth president\u2014are upending history. The archaeology, combined with tree-ring dating, shows that the newly discovered foundation, not the modest home still standing on the property, was the Monroe (1799) house.\n\u201cWe have made a stunning discovery. These exceptionally well-preserved remains are just beneath the ground surface in the front yard of the 1870s wing attached to the standing Monroe-era house,\u201d said Sara Bon-Harper, executive director of James Monroe\u2019s Highland. \u201cThis finding represents a breakthrough in how the nation understands Monroe and how he lived.\u201d\nOver his lifetime Monroe contributed a 50-year career in public service, serving both the Commonwealth of Virginia and the nation in a variety of positions including his two-term presidency from 1817 to 1825.\n\u201cPeople always ask me about the importance of archaeology and how it makes a difference in today\u2019s world,\u201d said Mike Barber, state archaeologist with the Virginia Department of Historic Resources. \u201cHighland provides a prime example of the power of the archaeological record to rewrite history. The evidence is often just below ground and following the best practices of stewardship and archaeology returns the best results, as these findings at Highland prove,\u201d Barber added.\nThe newly discovered foundation shows a free-standing and sizeable house. Bon-Harper said the findings include part of the base of a large chimney \u2014 preserved below the floor level, several sections of stone wall foundations, segments of thicker walls belonging to a stone cellar \u2013 now filled with brick rubble and charred planks, likely pointing to the destruction of the building by fire.\n\u201cMonroe sold the core of his Highland property in early 1826, and it is likely that the house burned sometime in the mid-1800s. We have not yet found contemporary accounts of a fire at Highland, but later newspaper articles refer to the destruction of the former Monroe residence, and the subsequent construction of the new Massey house in its place. The Massey structure was likely completed in the 1870s,\u201d said Dr. Benjamin Ford, principal at Rivanna Archaeological Services, LLC, in Charlottesville, the firm conducting research on the newly discovered house.\nThe discovery of the new foundation is part of larger research efforts on the property, including dendrochronology, the dating of historic wood through tree rings. Dendrochronology was conducted on the modest building that has been long considered James Monroe\u2019s house, providing confirmation that the house now standing on the property dates to 1818, and not 1799 as previously thought.\n\u201cDendrochronology showed the wood in the corner posts of the standing house was cut between the spring of 1815 and the spring of 1818,\u201d said Dr. Michael Worthington, proprietor of Oxford Tree-Ring Laboratory in Baltimore.\nThis later structure is now believed to be a dwelling Monroe mentioned building in a September 6, 1818 letter to his son-in-law. The construction was likely part of a larger renovation and building campaign that Monroe conducted on his Albemarle and Loudoun County properties early in his first term as President, Bon-Harper added.\nOther artifacts found during the investigations included a significant quantity of bottle glass, ceramics, and fragments of home furnishings.\nBon-Harper said the discovery of the new foundation sets the stage for continued research, noting additional archeology began at the site earlier this month.\n\u201cSurprisingly, this home of the last of our Founding Presidents has so much that remains to be explored archaeologically. The positive identification of the current house as the 1818 building confirms the interpretation of the archaeological remains as the house that Monroe and his family lived in beginning in November 1799,\u201d she said. \u201cFuture interpretation on site will incorporate the new revised understanding of the guest house while we continue archaeological research of Monroe\u2019s main house.\u201d\nBeginning this year on James Monroe\u2019s April 28 birthday, tours of the property will reflect the new interpretation of the site. Long-term plans for the property include extensive excavation and eventually virtual reality experiences of the house now being uncovered.\nDiscovery will be the essence of the new visitor experience, Bon-Harper said.\n\u201cWe believe our research efforts will reveal a greater understanding of the historic resources related to Monroe\u2019s home, and also Monroe\u2019s legacy,\u201d she added. \u201cA long-term research project will be visible to visitors who will witness the unearthing of a new knowledge as part of the historic site visit.\u201d",

        "title": "Jody Bahler - The Homestead",
        "raw_content": "StaffHome \u00bb Jody Bahler\nJody, the owner of the Homestead, grew up on the outskirts of the beautiful Kansas Flint Hills. She is the oldest in her family of four children- three girls and one boy. Her father farmed and had a large dairy operation. Her mother helped on the diary, and yet still had time to fix delicious meals around their family table. Jody\u2019s fondest memory from childhood is coming home from school to find a fresh-baked pie on the counter and a pot of chili on the stove! She liked to help with the cooking, but rarely did very much baking. Her childhood aspiration was actually to become a nurse. During her teen years, she worked at the local hospital as a nursing assistant. Following high school, Jody attended nursing school, graduating as an RN in 1993. Two weeks after graduation, she married an Indiana farm boy and moved to Wolcott! Once there, she worked as a nurse for an OB/GYN doctor for several years when she and Mike were first married. Then they started their family, and Jody had the privilege of staying home with their five girls: Amber, Larissa and Leandra (twins), Kenzie, and Erin- all of whom were born within six years! It was a busy time for Jody, but a blessed time that she treasures. It was during that time that she gained interest in cooking and baking. She would often spend time poring through recipe books and planning meals after the girls were in bed. Several years later when their youngest daughter Erin was two, a school nurse position opened at Tri-County, their local public school. Jody accepted that position, and enjoyed six years being the school nurse. In 2008, Mike and Jody lost their 100+ year-old newly renovated Bahler Homestead and all of their belongings in a devastating house fire. Clinging to their five girls, they slowly picked up the pieces and rebuilt on their family farm. In 2009, they were thankful to move into their new country home. In 2010, an opportunity opened to begin a family business that they chose to name \u201cThe Homestead\u201d. To this day, they enjoy every opportunity to serve their customers both in their Remington and Carmel locations!\nJody loves God, her family, late night conversations with Mike on their front porch, the smell of freshly-turned Earth, cookie dough, line dried sheets, fresh bread hot out of the oven (slathered with REAL butter), a clean home, Kansas sunsets, walks on their country path, and the blessing of life and breath on a glorious morning. She is extremely grateful for the opportunity she and Mike have had to raise their family on the farm, and to let their girls experience the joy and satisfaction of hard work, early-morning sunrises, the show of fireflies dancing over the bean field at dusk, newborn puppies in the barn, freshly-mowed grass, fort-building in the haymow, the first eruption of spring\u2019s rhubarb plants, the smell of field corn on a hot summer day, power-washing the barn, picking up field rock, sliding down the avalanche of fresh-picked corn in the grain truck, selling hogs, snapping green beans, and precious mealtime around the family harvest table laden with the fruits of the Earth!\nJody\u2019s official title is owner/manager of The Homestead. She loves what she does here at the Homestead. It\u2019s a privilege for her to come to work with a wonderful staff who works hard, is honest, is God-fearing, knows how to have fun, and who supports she and Mike and their family in every step of this journey! Mike continues to farm the land and raises hogs (a little different for Jody coming from a dairy!), but he is also very involved here at the Homestead. You won\u2019t see him baking bread, but you may find him fixing any appliance, paying the bills, remodeling the Homestead, building props, running delivery to WestClay, collecting the trash, \u2026always with a whistle and a smile! Jody says, \u201cMike is the wind beneath my wings, and we enjoy working alongside each other\u2026 planning improvements, making business decisions, occasionally shopping at Menards together, and also occasionally enjoying a get-away from our daily grind, cherishing those times of peace and quiet!\u201d\nA few things you may not know about Jody is that she graduated from a high school class of 35 students, and while there built a large, beautiful oak Roll-Top desk in her shop class. It took her two years to finish, and eventually also burned in their house fire. She also is very talented at playing the piano, and her daughters have fond memories of her playing to them while they drifted off to sleep in their younger years. The last song would always be \u201cAll Night, All Day\u201d.\nJody finds her inspiration in the satisfaction of happy customers and employees and in the privilege of serving others. In our busy, busy world, convenience often trumps quality- but here at the Homestead, we embrace the two as equal! Jody takes pride in the fact that our products here today are made just the same as they are on her family Homestead\u2026 from scratch, and with quality ingredients turned into delicious home-style casserole dishes, bread loaves, cookies, scones, pies, and more.\nprevious post: Natalie\nnext post: Mike Bahler",

        "raw_content": "Austria nearly \u201csells out\u201d of shotguns as tide of Muslim immigrants grows\nGun rights in Austria? Is that a thing? It may be now that there are immigrants flooding the region in the tens of thousands. The Austrians may not be embracing that whole multiculturalism wave that\u2019s sweeping some EU governments because the citizens are apparently lining up at gun shops and emptying the businesses of shotguns. (Daily Mail)\nWeapon sales are soaring in Austria as citizens of the small Alpine nation become paranoid over the numbers of refugees crowding into their country.\nIn a country of 8.5 million people, there are now an estimated 900,000 firearms in homes.\nAnd gun dealers report that it is women driving the sales rush. This year alone, police say 70,000 guns have been sold.\n\u2018Virtually all shotguns are currently sold out, because you need no permit for them\u2019, said Thomas Ortner, spokesman for an arms dealer in Upper Austria.\nI\u2019ll confess that I\u2019m not really up to speed on gun laws in most of Europe beyond the fact that the majority of those countries don\u2019t provide the same protections which the Second Amendment does in America. But it seems that you need a license for everything except a shotgun. (I suppose that makes at least some sense since shotguns are popular for hunting.) The lines outside the government offices where you apply for a license for other types of weapons are long, so people are clearly concerned. Of course, in well trained hands a shotgun can be a very effective line of home defense as well. (Side note: do not attend the Joe Biden school of shotgun training prior to use.)\nAccording to the people actually selling the weapons it is reiterated that a surprising number of the new customers are ladies.\n\u2018Because of the social change, people want to protect themselves,\u2019 one arms dealer told the broadcaster oe.24. He said \u2018many women\u2019 were among his customers.\nThe flood of \u2018refugees\u2019 into Austria is continuing without interruption.\nDoes this really come as any surprise? Impoverished people, most of whom don\u2019t speak the language and who come from a very different culture, are flooding into the area. Break-ins, robberies and rapes are an obvious danger and if you\u2019re not taking steps to protect yourself you\u2019re just asking to be a target. Are their concerns shocking to anyone? In Germany there have been repeated accusations that the government is downplaying a rise in crimes \u2013 particularly sexual assaults \u2013 where the migrants are congregating. (Reuters)\nGermany\u2019s police union and women\u2019s rights groups accused the authorities on Tuesday of playing down reports of harassment, sexual assault and even rape at refugee shelters because they feared a backlash against asylum seekers\u2026\nBut police union chief Rainer Wendt said he believed that authorities in Germany\u2019s federal states, which are responsible for housing asylum seekers, were playing down the problem of assaults on women in the shelters.\n\u201cIt is understandable that there is the desire to calm things down politically,\u201d Wendt told Reuters. But he, along with women\u2019s groups, believed that ignoring the problem would be counterproductive. \u201cThere is a lot of glossing over going on. But this doesn\u2019t represent reality,\u201d he said.\nThis should be a cautionary tale on both sides of the Atlantic, and here are a few things to remember: Open borders don\u2019t work. Nationalism and pride in your country are not dirty words or phrases. A nation\u2019s citizens define what their culture is and there is nothing wrong with wanting to preserve it. If you invite a flood of people from another culture to overrun your borders you are pretty much getting what you asked for.\nBut there\u2019s always a silver lining to every cloud, eh? Maybe Austria is on their way to getting their own Second Amendment.\nTags: Austria crisis immigrants immigration Syria",

        "raw_content": "\u2190 Review: Monsters University\nReview: Mega Shark vs Crocosaurus \u2192\nThere seems to be an abundance of child-friendly CGI movies for the summer and Despicable Me 2 seemed like one that might rise above the rest. I mean\u2026 looking at Turbo, Planes, Epic, and the horrifying sequel to Smurfs, this was a no-brainer for (hopefully) the creme of the crop.\nSteve Carell returns as Gru, the evil villain turned loving father. This movie isn\u2019t so much a redemption story, but focuses on what next. His three daughters are growing older and maybe it\u2019s time for Gru to focus on his love life. It\u2019s at this moment that Gru is recruited by the Anti-Villain League to help track down an evil enemy that is planning to create and unleash a horrifying breed of monster. Carell\u2019s new partner is voiced by Kristen Wiig, and other voice talent includes Russell Brand, Steve Coogan, Ken Jeong, Benjamin Bratt, and Miranda Cosgrove.\nThis is an easy formula and it wouldn\u2019t been really hard for this film to flop. Dependable actor who does a funny accent for an interesting looking and engaging character\u2026 Adorable little girl character\u2026 Funny sidekicks. Action scenes. Some tugs at your heartstrings. It\u2019s a winning combination.\nAnd luckily, Despicable Me 2 doesn\u2019t fail to meet those expectations. Like I said in the intro, it veers into a new arena because it\u2019s not about redemption anymore. This one is about love and acceptance and Gru\u2019s journey to be happy. I teared up during the finale (but to be fair, I cry during commercials). The minions still steal the show and appear even moreso than they did in the original. Most of my big laughs were minor things they did that caught me by surprise.\nCarell and Wiig have chemistry even though voiceovers are often shot independently, you wouldn\u2019t know it here. Her quirkiness and outgoing nature nicely complements Gru\u2019s social lackings.\nVisually, this movie is stunning. I think 3D would be fun but I saw it only in 2D and still loved every minute though you can see some moments that were clearly designed with the 3D viewing in mind.\nMoreso than I was expecting, this movie is aimed at younger audiences. For instance, there is a fart gun that plays a reoccurring role and I just rolled my eyes. And while the minions have an undeniable appeal, I think I hit my threshold of comic violence. The kids were loving it but I was kind of like\u2026 Okay. Next?\nYou can\u2019t hold that against a movie like this, as it is aimed at younger audiences. That\u2019s what this movie is.\nDespicable Me 2 is a fun and heart-touching journey, though it lacks some of the originality of the first. The minions have a more prominent part in the movie, but you may find that you become oversaturated. And while you laugh a lot during this movie, you may notice the kids laughing much more so (which is fine but I noticed). If you\u2019re looking for a more adult animated adventure, check out Monsters University but Despicable Me 2 is solid, if you\u2019re looking for something light and fun.\nThis entry was posted in Movies and tagged adam ryen daniels, animated, benjamin bratt, cgi, despicable me, despicable me 2, i am your target demographic, ken jeong, kristin wiig, minion, minions, miranda cosgrove, movie review, steve carell, steve coogan, summer movies.

When you eat before going to bed, you risk low-quality sleep because of gastroesophageal reflux disorder. At night when you are not active, your digestive system is not active. Therefore, when you take food, production of stomach acids is triggered. Because the acid is not properly utilized, it flows into the esophagus. This makes you feel uncomfortable in the stomach.

        "raw_content": "5 unforgettable moments in Dijon, France\nLong ago in the fifteenth century, before France was united under one king, this corner of France was ruled by the Dukes of Burgundy, who were based here in Dijon. It wasn\u2019t until 1477, after the death of the Duke Charles the Bold, that the area came under French rule.\nGiven Dijon\u2019s rich history and abundance of museums and interesting sites, it\u2019s definitely worth taking a day or two to explore the city.\nThere\u2019s a lot to do, so let\u2019s get started!\nChurch of the Carmelites on Place des Cordeliers\nFollow the Owl\u2019s Trail\nThere is no better way to get your bearings and explore Dijon than by following the Owl\u2019s Trail (available from the Tourist Office on Rue des Forges near Tour Philippe le Bon\u2014for 2\u20ac). This handy booklet includes a self-guided walk that takes in twenty-two of Dijon\u2019s historic monuments, with suggestions for a further three loops around the city.\nPlace des Ducs\u2014a popular spot for locals on a lunch break\nSome of the highlights of this walk are\u2014\nPorte Guillaume (stop 3)\u2014a majestic eighteenth-century arch that was once the gate into town.\nRue des Forges (stop 7)\u2014lined with ornate thirteenth, fifteenth and sixteenth-century noble houses.\nMaison Milli\u00e8re (stop 10)\u2014this timbered house was built in 1483 and is typical of medieval housing throughout France, with a shop on the ground floor and housing for the shop-keeper and his family on the upper floor.\nMaison Milli\u00e8re, stop 10 on the Owl\u2019s Trail\nPalais de Justice (stop 18) and private mansions (stop 19)\u2014the palace was built in the sixteenth century to house the parliament and is surrounded by stately mansions built for government officials.\nThe churches\u2014take your pick from the eleventh-century Saint-B\u00e9nigne (stop 22), the twelfth-century Saint-Philibert (stop 21) or the thirteenth-century Notre-Dame (stop 8).\nMUST DO\u2014on Rue de la Chouette (stop 9), it is considered good luck to rub the owl with your left hand and make a wish.\nExplore the medieval heart of the city\nThe historic heart of Dijon is dominated by Place de la Lib\u00e9ration\u2014an enormous, semi-circular square, now lined with caf\u00e9s, which was built to showcase a statue of Louis XIV. Ironically, the statue was melted down to make canons during the French Revolution.\nCaf\u00e9s lining Place de la Lib\u00e9ration\nOpposite the square, is the Palais des Ducs et des \u00c9tats de Bourgogne (Dukes\u2019Palace)\u2014built in the fourteenth century but continually restored and enlarged over the following five hundred years. Today it houses the Town Hall and the Mus\u00e9e des Beaux Arts, where the tombs of the Dukes can be viewed.\nClimb Tour Philippe le Bon\nAlongside the Palais des Ducs and accessed via the Tourist Office below, is the 48 metre high Tour Philippe le Bon.\nClimb to the top for magnificent views over the rooftops of Dijon and an aerial view of the medieval centre nestled in the heart of the city.\nThe rooftops of Dijon, viewed from Tour Philippe le Bon\nIndulge in a little people-watching from an outdoor caf\u00e9\nDijon is positively packed with outdoor caf\u00e9s and no matter where you are, a good meal is close by.\nSome areas to consider\u2014\nPlace de la Lib\u00e9ration\u2014there are many caf\u00e9s lining the square and offering good value meals throughout the day.\nPlace Emile Zola\u2014today the square is crammed with caf\u00e9s, but following the French Revolution, this was the site of public executions.\nPlace Fran\u00e7ois Rude\u2014a relatively new addition to the city (1904), this quiet spot near the medieval heart of town is a great spot to while away an hour or two.\nTake a stroll along the Burgundy Canal\nIf you haven\u2019t arrived in Dijon by walking along the Burgundy Canal, now is the time to take a short detour to the outskirts of town and visit the port.\nIf you have a copy of the Owl\u2019s Trail, the Moses Loop will take you in the right direction. Follow this path through the Jardin des Sciences de l\u2019Arquebuse with its traditional, English and botanical gardens. When you reach the far side of the park, continue along the Moses Loop but instead of turning right, zigzag left, then right towards the canal.\nBoats moored at Port de Dijon\nWhen plans for the Burgundy Canal were first drawn up in the sixteenth century, the intention was to connect Dijon with Saint-Jean-de-Losne, thirty kilometres (nineteen miles) to the east. From there, boats could reach the Mediterranean Sea via the Sa\u00f4ne and Rh\u00f4ne Rivers, ensuring Dijon\u2019s role as a town of great economic importance. Subsequent plans to extend the canal west to the Yonne River were discouraged by the ruling nobility, believing that Dijon would become just another town along the way.\nDijon\u2019s economic importance may have diminished over the last few hundred years but it is certainly a most worthwhile stop on any tourist route.\nAnd if this post were called 6 Unforgettable Moments around Dijon, I would, of course be suggesting a visit to any of the vineyards nearby between here and Beaune or Chablis! (There are several guided tours available at the Tourist Office\u2014advance bookings are advised to secure dates.)\nVineyards in the C\u00f4te de Nuits, less than an hour from Dijon\nWhere is Dijon, France? Find it on Google maps\nDijon is located 212 kilometres (132.5 miles) along the Burgundy Canal \u2013 an eleven-day walk from the starting point of Migennes.\nGood bus and train connections from Dijon to other parts of France offer several opportunities to explore the region more widely \u2013 or to finish your walk here if your time is limited.\nThe Burgundy Canal winds along the southern edge of the town and the historic centre is an easy 15-minute walk from the canal.\nTourist Office in Dijon\nYou\u2019ll find the Tourist Office in the historic centre of Dijon at 11 Rue des Forges. Opening hours are listed here.\nAccommodation in Dijon (updated 2017)\nYou\u2019ll find dozens of hotels, ranging from 5-star luxury accommodation to clean but basic 2-star rooms, on the Destination Dijon website.\nI can personally recommend Quality H\u00f4tel du Nord which is conveniently located within walking distance of the train station and the historic centre.\nListed below are five chambres d\u2019h\u00f4tes (the equivalent of the English Bed and Breakfast) where you\u2019ll find a warm, friendly welcome and personal service.\nChambres d\u2019H\u00f4tes des Marcs d\u2019Or (5 rooms, 11 people)\nLa D\u00e9pendance (2 rooms, 4 people)\nLes Lilas de Dijon (2 rooms, 4 people)\nLe Petit Tertre (3 rooms, 6 people)\nWhere to eat in Dijon\nThere is a full range of caf\u00e9s, bakeries, supermarkets and speciality food stores in Dijon \u2013 as you\u2019d expect in any large town (population 150,000).\nFresh food markets are held in Les Halles (Rue Odebert) every Tuesday, Thursday and Friday morning and all day on Saturday, but you\u2019ll often find a smaller speciality market in full swing somewhere in town on other days of the week. Ask at the Tourist Office for a list of markets during your stay.\nDijon is also home to four Michelin-starred restaurants. If you are looking for something special, choose from \u2013\nSt\u00e9phane Derbord (one star) from \u20ac28 to \u20ac102\nLoiseau des Ducs (one star) from \u20ac29 to \u20ac122\nLa Maison des Cariatides (one star) from \u20ac29 to \u20ac65\nWilliam Frachot (two stars) from \u20ac55 to \u20ac150\nPrices range from very affordable to quite pricey, depending on whether you visit for lunch or dinner and choose from the degustation or \u00e0 la carte menus. Visit each website for menus, opening hours and all other details.\nWhich long-distance walk in France visits Dijon? The Burgundy Canal\nfromgreentoblue says\nWe\u2019re off to Dijon today.

        "raw_content": "One of the loveliest of France\u2019s most beautiful villages, Flavigny-sur-Ozerain is perhaps best known as the setting for the film Chocolat starring Juliette Binoche and Johnny Depp. In \u2018real life\u2019 though, the village is famous, not for chocolate, but for aniseed lollies.\nLolly production takes place in the abbey, built in the eighth century for the Benedictine monks. The same recipe has been in use since the sixteenth century but today the lollies are available in a wide variety of flavours. The abbey and lolly production line are open to the public on weekday mornings or you can visit the lolly shop Anis de Flavigny\u2014but check the website as opening hours for the shop and the abbey vary throughout the year.\nBelow the abbey, crypts from the Carolingian time (ninth century) can also be visited and are open in the morning and afternoon.\nAnis de Flavigny \u2013 lolly shop extraordinaire\nIf you have seen the movie Chocolat, you will no doubt want to visit the parish church of Saint-Genest. Although this church is more than nine hundred years old, there is very much a sense of a church well-used and well-loved by the local community. On both sides, stairs lead up to a gallery where you can sit quietly, undisturbed, and contemplate all that these walls have seen over the last nine hundred years.\nLet\u2019s visit the church and wander through the back streets\u2026\nView from the gallery \u2013 inside Saint-Genest\nInside the church of Saint-Genest\nChocolate shop from the movie Chocolat\nPicturesque back street in Flavigny-sur-Ozerain\nQuaint corner in Flavigny-sur-Ozerain\nHeading home, for afternoon siesta perhaps\u2026\nWhere is Flavigny-sur-Ozerain, France? Find it on Google maps\nIf you are walking along the Burgundy Canal, Flavigny-sur-Ozerain can be reached using the shuttle bus from Montbard. However, the first shuttle bus arrives in Flavigny-sur-Ozerain at 11h40 which only leaves you 20 minutes to visit the abbey before it closes for lunch. A better option may be to take a taxi from further along the canal at Venarey-les-Laumes or Pouillenay.\nTourist Office in Flavigny-sur-Ozerain\nThere is no Tourist Office in Flavigny-sur-Ozerain but you\u2019ll find helpful staff at Soci\u00e9t\u00e9 des Amis de la Cit\u00e9 de Flavigny at Maison au Donataire on Rue de l\u2019\u00c9glise.

When I returned with friends some years later on a cold, gloomy, windy day in September, the caf\u00e9s were closed and except for a few customers in the aniseed lolly shop, the village seemed deserted \u2013 it was a completely different experience.\nThere are two restaurants in Flavigny-sur-Ozerain which, according to their websites, are open every day except Monday from Easter until the end of October. If you are counting on having lunch during your visit, I recommend phoning ahead to check they will be open and to make reservation.\nRestaurant de l\u2019Abbaye (open every day) 03 80 96 27 77\nFerme Auberge La Grange (closed Monday) 03 80 96 20 62\nWhich long-distance walk in France visits Flavigny-sur-Ozerain?

The weather is likely to be sunnier and more attractions will stay open for more hours throughout the day and during lunch hours. The only down side is there will be more tourists. No matter when you go, it is a beautiful village! Melinda",

        "title": "Freedom vs. Non-Freedom: A View from Russia - Imprimis",
        "raw_content": "Freedom vs. Non-Freedom: A View from Russia\nJanuary 2007 \u2022 Volume 36, Number 1 \u2022 Andrei Illarionov\nPresident, Institute of Economic Analysis\nAndrei Illarionov completed his undergraduate degree in 1983 and his Ph.D. in 1987, both at St. Petersburg University. He has also studied in Austria, the United Kingdom and the United States. In 1993, he was appointed the chief economic advisor to Russian Prime Minister Viktor Chernomyrdin, resigning the next year in protest of government policies. In 2000, he was appointed the chief economic advisor to Russian President Vladimir Putin, in which capacity he was the driving force behind the adoption of a 13 percent flat income tax. In December 2005, he again resigned in protest of government policies. Dr. Illarionov has written three books and over 300 articles. He is a member of the Mont Pelerin Society, the Economic Freedom Network and the Russian Academy of Natural Sciences.\nThe following is adapted from a speech delivered on October 3, 2006, at a Hillsdale College National Leadership Seminar at the Drake Hotel in Chicago, Illinois.\nConstitutionalism in the Western political tradition does not mean\u2014as it does in my own country, Russia\u2014simply having a written constitution, regardless of its content. Rather, true constitutionalism requires the limitation of government by law. A government can be considered genuinely constitutional only if it operates under the following minimal constraints: (1) The legislature cannot be dismissed by any body or person other than itself. (2) The courts are independent of the legislative and executive branches. (3) The executive branch cannot appoint ministers without the approval of the legislative branch. (4) Only the legislature can pass laws.\nIt is not easy to find indications of such constitutionalism in my country. Our legislative branch, the Parliament, was dissolved in October 1993 by presidential decree. And for those who did not fully understand or immediately agree with that decree, some quite convincing tank shells were fired on the Parliament building. Russian courts are probably independent of the legislative branch, but they are completely subordinate to the executive. Ministers are simply appointed by the president. And while it is true that the legislature formally makes laws, the fact is that in the last seven years, there has not been a single executive desire that the Parliament has not passed into law. Thus it is not quite right to say, as some do, that constitutionalism is failing in Russia. In truth, Russia has yet to attempt it.\nWhy is this important? The answer is simple: constitutionalism is the best way, the most efficient way, and in fact the only way, to secure freedom.\n\u201cFreedom is not a luxury\u201d\nIt is always worth pausing to refresh our memories\u2014as well as the memories of our friends, colleagues, and even our adversaries\u2014concerning the reasons why freedom is better than non-freedom.\nFreedom is not a luxury. It is a very powerful instrument, without which no person and no country in the world can have sustained prosperity, security, development or respect. Free countries are certainly more prosperous than non-free countries. The Heritage Foundation\u2019s Index of Economic Freedom, the Fraser Institute\u2019s Economic Freedom of the World, and Freedom House\u2019s Freedom in the World all provide overwhelming evidence that economically and politically free countries are much richer than non-free countries\u2014with a GDP per capita, on average, between $28,000 and $30,000, compared to approximately $4,000 per person in non-free or repressed countries.\nIn addition, the economies of free countries grow faster. During the past 30 years, completely free countries doubled per capita income, and partially free countries increased per capita income 40 percent on average. By contrast, non-free countriesreduced per capita income roughly 34 percent. Over the same period, several countries changed their status from political freedom to political non-freedom, and others from political non-freedom to political freedom. The former change leads inevitably to economic degradation, resulting in a negative GDP per capita growth rate. The transition from non-freedom to freedom, on the other hand, speeds up economic growth, resulting in a GDP per capita growth rate higher than the world average.\nFreedom also provides security. This is true for external security, because economically and politically free countries are less likely to fight each other than are non-free countries; it is also true for domestic security, as free countries usually have lower mortality rates from violent crime committed by criminal gangs or by the government. Compare the United States, Western Europe, Canada, and Japan on the one hand, and non-free countries like Rwanda, Afghanistan, Iraq, Somalia, and North Korea on the other. Which countries are more secure? Where is the life expectancy higher? Where is there a greater risk of robbery, kidnapping or murder?\nRelated to this, freedom enhances economic, political and military strength. Let\u2019s compare countries with similar population sizes but different levels of freedom. Which are economically more powerful? Spain or Sudan? Australia or Syria? Belgium or Cuba? Canada or Myanmar? The Netherlands or Zimbabwe? Taiwan or North Korea? Finland or Libya? Freedom also leads to greater international respect: Which of these countries is considered more attractive and more respected in the world? To which do people immigrate? From which do people emigrate? People vote for freedom with their feet.\nThe lack of freedom, on the other hand, creates an insurmountable barrier to prosperity and economic growth. For instance, there are no examples in world history of non-free countries that in a sustained way overcame a GDP per capita barrier of $15,000. Countries that have been able to cross this barrier did so only when they became free, politically and economically. Spain, Portugal, Greece, Taiwan, South Korea and Chile are among the best known examples of such a transition. Relatedly, countries that were rich but became non-free, also became poor\u2014even oil-exporting countries in years of high energy prices. In Iran, Venezuela, Saudi Arabia and Iraq, the GDP per capita today is lower than it was three decades ago, by 10, 30, 40 and 80 percent, respectively. The lack of freedom always destroys wealth.\nThe Destruction of Freedom in Russia\nThe story of the destruction of freedom in my own country, Russia, is sad. But this story should be told, should be known, and should be remembered\u2014to avoid repeating it and in order one day to reverse it.\nFirst, there was an assault on the people of Chechnya. Many Russian people thought that it was not their business to defend the freedom of the Chechen people. People in Chechnya lost their independence, their political rights and\u2014many of them\u2014their lives. Many Russians lost their lives as well.\nThen there was an assault on the Russian media. This time many Russian people thought that it was not their business to defend the freedom of the media. As a result, the media lost its independence\u2014first television channels, then radio stations and newspapers. And now the censors are turning their attention to the Internet.\nThen there was an assault on private business. Many Russian people thought that it was not their business to defend the freedom of private business. So private business has lost its independence and has become subjugated to the caprice of the executive power. This has been accomplished through so-called PPPs or public-private partnerships, but it would be more correct to call what is happening CPC\u2014coercion of private business by the corporation in power.\nThen there was an assault on the independence of political parties. Many Russian people thought that it was not their business to defend the independence of political parties. As a result, independent national political parties ceased to exist.\nThen there was an assault on the independence of the judiciary. Many Russian people thought that it was not their business to defend the independence of the judiciary. Now, there are no more independent courts or judges in Russia.\nThen there was an assault on the election of regional governors. Many Russian people thought that it was not their business to defend free elections of regional governors. Today, regional governors are appointed by the president, and there are no more independent regional authorities in the country.\nThen there was an assault on the independence of non-governmental and religious organizations. Finally, some people tried to defend the freedom of these organizations, but it was too late. And now even those who want to resist have neither the resources nor the institutions required to fight back.\nAs a result, Russia has ceased to be politically free. For 2005, Freedom House\u2019sFreedom in the World ranks Russia 168th out of 192 countries. Transparency International\u2019s Global Corruption Report ranks Russia 126th out of 159 countries. The World Economic Forum calculates that Russia is 85th (among 108 countries) in avoiding favoritism in government decisions, 88th (also of 108) in its protection of property rights, and 84th (of 102) when measured by the independence of the judicial system. The Russian government could form another G-8 with countries that destroyed the fundamental institutions of modern government and civil society as quickly as it did over the past 15 years by partnering with Nepal, Belarus, Tajikistan, Gambia, the Solomon Islands, Zimbabwe and Venezuela.\nWhat is the Russian government doing now, when it has destroyed freedom and achieved next to full control over Russian society? Is it stopping its assaults? No. It continues them, both within and beyond Russia\u2019s borders. Inside the country, the government has started a campaign against human rights. It has created and financed detachments of storm troopers\u2014the movements \u201cNashi\u201d (\u201cOur Own\u201d), \u201cMestnye\u201d (\u201cLocals\u201d), and \u201cMolodaya gvardiya\u201d (\u201cYoung Guard\u201d)\u2014which are being taught and trained to harass and beat political and intellectual opponents of the current regime. The days for which these storm troopers are especially trained will come soon\u2014during the parliamentary and presidential elections in 2007 and 2008.\nBeyond Russia\u2019s national borders, the government provides economic, financial, political, intellectual and moral support to new friends: leaders of non-free countries such as Belarus, Uzbekistan, Venezuela, Myanmar, Algeria, Iran, and Palestinian Hamas. At the same time, Russia is attempting to destroy hard-won freedom and democracy in neighboring countries. Ukraine, Moldova and Georgia find themselves in a new cold war as Russian authorities pursue hostile policies involving visas, poultry imports, electricity, natural gas, pipelines, wine, and even mineral water. The Russian government has just started a full-scale blockade of Georgia. Meanwhile, the state-controlled Russian media has launched a propaganda war against Ukraine, Moldova, Georgia, the Baltic countries, Europe and the United States.\nWhat do non-free countries have in common? What unites such disparate countries as Nepal, Belarus, Tajikistan, the Solomon Islands, Gambia, Venezuela, Zimbabwe, North Korea, Sudan, Turkmenistan, Cuba, Myanmar, and yes, now Russia? Only one thing: war, in which governments take away property and destroy society, in which they send people to camps or kill them solely because they have a different perception of the world, of faith, of law, and of their homeland. Only through hatred, fear, and electoral violence can these governments hold on to what is dearest to them\u2014absolute power.\nWithout freedom there can be no open discussion of topics of national and international importance. There is an exclusion from public life of conversation about the most important matters. This primitivizes public life, degrades society, and weakens the state. The politics of non-freedom is the politics of public impoverishment and of the retardation of the country\u2019s economic growth.\nThe greatest practical lesson of Russia\u2019s recent history is that freedom is indivisible. The failure of freedom in one sphere makes it harder to defend freedom in other areas. Likewise, the fall of freedom in one country is a blow to global freedom. The inability to defend freedom yesterday comes back to haunt us at a great price today and perhaps an even greater price tomorrow.\nWhat position should the United States and other free countries take regarding Russia\u2019s growing internal authoritarianism and external aggression? There was a real opportunity over the last several years: Concerted efforts by the West could have slowed significantly, if not stopped, the degradation of freedom in Russia. But nothing was done. One of the West\u2019s last chances was to deny access to its capital markets for the sale of assets stolen from the large private company Yukos; but this did not happen, and the sale of those assets occurred at the Rosneft IPO on the London Stock Exchange. The July 2006 G-8 summit in St. Petersburg could also have been used to emphasize the clear distinction between leaders of the free world and those of non-free Russia. But in the end, nothing was done.\nAs I wrote in the Washington Post in April 2006:\nThe G-8 summit can only be interpreted as a sign of support by the world\u2019s most powerful organization for Russia\u2019s leadership\u2014as a stamp of approval for its violations of individual rights, the rule of law and freedom of speech, its discrimination against nongovernmental organizations, nationalization of private property, use of energy resources as a weapon, and aggression toward democratically oriented neighbors.\nBy going to St. Petersburg, leaders of the world\u2019s foremost industrialized democracies will demonstrate their indifference to the fate of freedom and democracy in Russia. They will provide the best possible confirmation of what the Russian authorities never tire of repeating: that there are no fundamental differences between Western and Russian leaders. Like us, Russia\u2019s leaders will say, they are interested only in appearing to care about the rights of individuals and market forces; like us, they only talk about freedom and democracy. The G-8 summit will serve as an inspiring example for today\u2019s dictators and tomorrow\u2019s tyrants.\nThe West squandered both of these opportunities. None of the G-7 leaders had enough courage to raise the issues of freedom and democracy, or to discuss the principles of true constitutionalism and their absence in Russia. Everyone pretended that nothing special was going on in Russia. Indeed, the G-7 leaders agreed de factowith the Russian authorities\u2019 approach to energy security. Instead of liberalizing and privatizing energy assets, Russia is moving in the opposite direction both internally\u2014by nationalizing private companies and asserting state control over the electricity grid and pipeline system\u2014and internationally, by using non-market methods to manage supply and even demand for the world\u2019s energy resources.\nSeveral months after the summit, the bill for this policy of appeasement is due. Now the Russian authorities are revoking the licenses of American and British energy companies in Sakhalin. BP has found itself under pressure to exchange its partner in TNK-BP in favor of the government-owned Gazprom. Otherwise, it will not have a chance to explore the giant Kovykta gas field in eastern Siberia. The billion dollars it spent on the purchase of Rosneft shares in July 2006 did not help BP much. And there is no doubt that, after the G-8 summit, the free world can expect more of the same. In truth, it should consider itself in a new Cold War-like era.",

        "raw_content": "HomePlumber\nadmin May, 2016 Plumber No Comments\nIf your water heater has reached the end of its useful life, you have some options to consider before purchasing a new one. You can replace your water heater with a traditional model that holds water in a large tank, or you can try a wall-mounted tankless heater. More and more people are opting for tankless Water Heaters nowadays. These appliances have several advantages and disadvantages.\n* According to the U.S. Department of Energy, tankless water heaters powered by gas save $108 per year and electric tankless heaters lower energy bills by $44 per year. The savings is due to the fact that tankless heaters are more energy efficient, heating up water only when its required rather than storing hot water.\n* Tankless water heaters, unlike traditional ones, do not build up rust. Consequently they can last more than twenty years, which is twice as long as an average traditional model. They come with much longer warranties, too.\n* With a tankless water heater, you never run out of hot water. A tankless heater can supply 2 to 3 gallons of hot water per minute.\n* Tankless heaters take up very little space compared to a traditional water heater. They can be mounted on an interior wall or even outside.\n* The main disadvantage of tankless water heaters is their cost. In fact, they can cost up to three times what a storage heater costs, anywhere from $2800 to $4500.\n* Furthermore, your home\u2019s electrical system might need to be upgraded in order to support a tankless heater. New wiring can add a significant amount to the cost of installation.\n* Although the tankless heater promises water on demand, you may not notice a big difference when you turn on the faucet. With either type of water heating system, cold water has to be flushed from the pipes before the hot water can run. If the amount of water required is only a little, the flow may not trigger the heating mechanism.\nTankless Water Heaters are a great choice for big families that use a lot of water and for people who can afford the higher upfront cost. If cost is an issue, it may be more practical to replace a storage tank heater with another one that can be easily installed in the same space.

        "title": "The worst performing NASDAQ stocks so far this year",
        "raw_content": "Home - Trade Insider - Stocks - Worst performing NASDAQ stocks of 2017\nby Martin on August 27, 2017\nWorst performing NASDAQ stocks of 2017\nMany US stocks have been trading higher this year thanks to the election of President Trump, but there are still some lagging behind. Here, we look at the NASDAQ stocks which have produced the worst declines in stock price.\nUnder Armour (UA)\nUnder Armour is the third largest company in sports branding, behind Nike and Adidas. However, unlike its competitors, Under Armour depends heavily on the North American market, about 80% of it actually. Nike and Adidas have therefore benefited from a weaker dollar by increasing their international sales. Instead, sales by Under Armour have dropped significantly and the UA stock price has decreased almost 40% from the $29.87 price at the start of the year to today\u2019s price of $18.12.\nUnder Armour stock is now among the worst performing stock on the NASDAQ stocks exchange, and the decline may still continue. When the company CEO announced the company\u2019s revenue for the financial year so far, it showed that there was reduced profits. Sales of footwear, for example, had reduced by 2.4% in the second quarter alone. Their inventory continues to grow even as the sales drop.\nAs a result, the stock slipped a further 8.7% on the 1st of August to reach a 52-week low. To respond, the company is laying off 2% of its employees which is about 280 of its employees. Several investment firms in new York have downgraded their outlook for Under Armour from a \u2018hold\u2019 to a \u2018sell\u2019 \u2013 further evidence of the company\u2019s performance.\nThe energy sector (oil and gas) of the NASDAQ stocks is down in general, having dropped by 16.21% in the past year. Nevertheless, some companies have seen the worst slips in stock price, like Southwestern Energy Co. whose stock has decreased by more than 50% so far this year. The SWN stock is now trading at around $5, while it was trading at about $10 at the start of the year.\nSWN stock had reached a high of $48.93 back in 2014, then the decline began when the oil crisis began. Since Southwestern Energy focuses on natural gas, their profits began to drop because of reducing natural gas prices. Furthermore, these prices are expected to keep dropping as new methods of exploration are being discovered. Therefore, the SWN stock seems to be in trouble.\nFrontier Communications (FTR)\nFTR stock started off the year strongly at $53.7 a piece, yet now it\u2019s trading at around $14 \u2013 almost a 75% decline in 2017. The company focuses on telecommunications, providing internet video and voice services. They acquired Verizon\u2019s wireline business last year, to increase revenues by over a billion dollars in the first quarter of 2017. However, excluding the revenues from Verizon\u2019s business contribution, the rest of FTR revenues were down 6%. They had stopped their marketing efforts and there were less customers signing up. A decline in demand for voice services also dented the company\u2019s primary revenue stream. FTR is just one of the various telecom companies experiencing a \u2018down\u2019 year, but its decline is notable.",

        "raw_content": "By Harold Marburger at Dunn Heat Exchangers. This article appears in the January/February 2016 issue of Inspectioneering Journal\nDownstream Heat Exchangers Industrial Cleaning\nHow to Effectively and Efficiently Clean Heat Exchangers\nHeat exchangers operating in refineries or petrochemical plants must be thoroughly cleaned and inspected throughout their operational lifetime to ensure safe and efficient operations. These routine procedures are necessary because the equipment comes into contact with various feedstocks, process chemicals, and cooling water that will develop exchanger foulants over time.\nThese foulants can adhere to the walls of the equipment\u2019s tubes and pipes, as well as inside various valves and flanges, thus causing the exchanger to reduce heat transfer. Over time, these foulants will be compounded, which dramatically changes the flow rates of fluid through the exchanger and causes a loss of efficiency, and increases the risk of unsafe operations. Moreover, deposits from fouling can cause hot-spots and corrosion conditions that lead to premature equipment failure.\nTo avoid such results, operators must periodically remove the buildup of foulants that coat the tubes before they reduce and limit operational efficiencies. This procedure must be done carefully to avoid damage to equipment components, and more importantly, to prevent injury to cleaning personnel.\nThis article is Part III of a three-part series that explores the various methods, benefits, challenges, solutions and safety methods to safely, efficiently, and effectively clean heat exchangers, both on and offsite.\nIn Part I, published in the January/February 2015 issue of Inspectioneering Journal, we discussed the importance and various benefits of optimal cleaning, and whether heat exchangers should be cleaned on or offsite. In Part II, published in the September/October 2015 issue, we discussed several different methods of cleaning heat exchangers. Now, in Part III, we will address specific safety issues related to proper heat exchanger cleaning.\nHands-Free Automated Equipment\nThird-party service providers can use automated equipment for both on and offsite cleaning to reduce the safety and environmental risks associated with high-pressure cleaning. Manual cleaning methods dramatically increase the likelihood of high-pressure injuries and chemical exposures, particularly for the operator. Participating personnel become vulnerable to high-cut hazards, operator fatigue due to the added discomfort of wearing PPE (Personal Protective Equipment), and the risks that come with holding high-pressure handheld equipment for extended periods of time.\nFigure 2.

I\u2019ve been a huge fan of his for a long time and it really is a great collection of pieces. My only complaint is that the picture he did from the Sha Tin racecourse (Hong Kong) and the Hong Kong stock exchange weren\u2019t on display cause they\u2019re some of my faves. Maybe it\u2019s just cause they remind of Hong Kong :-)\nMy goodness! Do you lot know UK artist Ian Francis? If not you should really check him out. His work is SO dramatic it\u2019s amazing, some of his pieces seriously look like they\u2019re scorching hot or on fire even cause they\u2019re just so intense in warm colour. I also just LOVE the contrast between areas that are really carefully detailed and areas that seam like irregular aggressive strokes with the paintbrush.\nSee more: http://ifrancis.co.uk\nLook at this super nice identity that Anagrama did for a printshop, they sure don\u2019t look like that in Denmark. I love the use of different patterns, variety of type and little splashes of colour. It kinda makes it seam tight and lively at the same time. Love it!\nSee more: http://anagrama.com\nLas Vegas Neon Museum Boneyard\nI don\u2019t think I\u2019m the only one with a great love for old neon signs. I\u2019ve never been to Las Vegas but if I did, I wouldn\u2019t go for the gambling, but to see the Las Vegas Neon Museum Boneyard. The museum restores old signage but a lot of them are stored in the so called Boneyard and it just looks AMAZING! Oh how I would love one of those letters in my apartment, would probably take up an entire room though.\nPics from http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-14810649\nHave been looking through the millions of open tabs I have in my browser of very important things I won\u2019t wanna forget about (am I the only one who does that?!?!) and there\u2019s just so many good things that I haven\u2019t had time to look through and share with you. Like Russian photographer Elizaveta Porodina. I really think this girl is very talented. It\u2019s not just photos, each one really is a little piece of art. It\u2019s almost angelic!\nSee more: http://www.porodina.net\nHere\u2019s Hype for Type, a little foundry that does really special and unique things, or as they say themselves, they do Haute Fonture! Love it! There are SO many cool display fonts and I have no idea whatsoever what to use them for, I just WANT them! They even do co-labs with other really cool people like Anthony Burrill and Non-Format! Ohh I could go on and on, just go look for yourselves.\nhttp://www.hypefortype.com\nLet\u2019s just have a little sexy fashion photography today.

        "raw_content": "The New X-Files Series Could Include A Sequel To A Classic Episode\nRobert Kirkman teases a new Fear the Walking Dead character. R. L. Stine talks monsters in the Goosebumps movie. Star Trek 3\u2019s focus is on new worlds and new aliens, rather than referencing the past. Plus even more returning characters on Heroes Reborn, and new Mission Impossible footage. Behold, Spoilers!\nR. L. Stine teases some of the monsters appearing in the film:\nCS: What are some creatures and places from the books that will be brought to life in the movie that fans have never seen before in the show?\nStine: All the early monsters that are in the books. They all come out, they\u2019re all there. The real evil one is Slappy the Dummy, he\u2019s there, the Abominable Snowman from Pasadena is there, and lawn gnomes, HUNDREDS of lawn gnomes. They\u2019re great, they\u2019re really good.\nCS: I\u2019ve heard rumors of a giant praying mantis on set.\nStine: Yes, which was on the cover of \u201cA Shocker on Shock Street,\u201d it was a ride or something and there was a giant praying mantis, and this insect plays a very large part in the movie, it\u2019s pretty horrifying. The effects I\u2019ve seen are not finished but they\u2019re terrific.\nLaurence Fishburne is in talks to direct the Paulo Coelho novel, and Idris Elba is being lined up to star. [Deadline]\nDirector Justin Lin discusses the film:\nAs great as JJ\u2019s films were, there\u2019s still a lot to be mined from these characters. They haven\u2019t really gone on their five-year mission, so what we experienced in the TV show hasn\u2019t been touched on yet. That sets up an opportunity for exploration and the deeper you go, the more you are examining humanity. Those are the things that I absorbed as a kid and hope to tap into and embrace and celebrate. By the time this movie comes out, Star Trek will have been around for 50 years.\nLin also discussed the movie\u2019s approach to honoring Star Trek\u2019s past:\nIt\u2019s all new and fresh. The Klingons, Romulans and other species are great, but it\u2019s time to go further. It has been fun to focus on creating whole new worlds and species.\nHere\u2019s another shot of the Cerebro set from Bryan Singer\u2019s Instagram. [CBR]\nGuns and Gadgets galore as Ethan Hunt goes up against the shadowy Syndicate in this new trailer. [/Film]\nTV Line are reporting that the second episode of the show\u2019s revival will be called \u201cHome Again\u201d. The episode is written by Glen Morgan, leading to speculation that the episode will be a follow up to the seminal classic episode that Morgan co-wrote, season four\u2019s \u201cHome\u201d.\nRobert Kirkman reveals details about one of the show\u2019s new characters, Madison:\nMadison is a character whose husband died. And she\u2019s been raising her kids on her own, so she\u2019s a character that has experienced a very abrupt change to her life that she has had to adapt to. So there\u2019s an inherent strength in this single mother that makes her in some ways uniquely adapted to live in the zombie apocalypse. And I think Kim has shown that if you want to have a strong female character, a no-nonsense strong character \u2014but with a lot of warmth, because its hard sometimes to find an actress that can have those two things and can be this leader and also have this warmth and this kindness to her\u2014that\u2019s something that Kim is very capable of.\nThe Flash/DC\u2019s Legends Of Tomorrow\nVictor Garber briefly teases Firestorm\u2019s future in both shows:\nRobbie and I will be joined on the first episode of the (next) season of The Flash, and then we\u2019ll see what happens.\nDavid Castro has been cast as Raphael, \u201cAn elegantly handsome, well-dressed vampire\u201d. [Spoiler TV]\nHenry Simmons\u2019s Mack has been promoted to series regular for season three. [TV Line]\nZachary Levi teases the morality of his character, Luke Collins:\nHe\u2019s doing things for a reason, a reason that he\u2019s convinced is the right thing to do, at least for the time being or whatever. But it\u2019s a journey and I think all the characters in this show, they all start in one spot and they all end in another. It\u2019s really big and a lot of things are going on. These things affect each of the characters. That definitely happens to my character as well. I so badly want to say more to all this, but it would be total spoiler alert and I\u2019d get fired and that would be a bummer.\nThe same TV Junkies report also confirms that the character of Micah Sanders is returning in the new series.\nHere\u2019s some promo pictures from \u201cThe Dance of Dragons\u201d. [Spoiler TV]\nFinally, here\u2019s a batch of promo pictures from \u201cMomento Mori\u201d. [Spoiler TV]\nAdditional reporting by Diana Biller and Charlie Jane Anders.

So take care of some chores around the house or maybe hit the mall or grocery store \u2014 with a reusable bag, or course. It\u2019s also International Plastic Bag Free Day. Former prime minister Stephen Harper spent the day after Canada Day in D.C. But as for who he met with, what was said or what came of it, well, that\u2019s really anyone\u2019s guess. He was spotted leaving the West Wing yesterday by an Associated Press photographer, but neither his team, nor the U.S. administration has responded to requests for comment about what happened. The White House confirmed the meeting between Harper and Larry Kudlow, economic advisor to President Donald Trump, but did not say how long it lasted or what the two discussed. Harper was expected to meet with National Security Advisor John Bolton as well, but it appears that didn\u2019t happen. But this did\u2026\nGreat meetings in Washington, DC today as Chairman of the IDU.

As Trudeau was digging in, Trump took to Fox News yesterday morning to do the same. He announced he won\u2019t be signing a new North American free-trade agreement ahead of the midterm elections in November. He also repeated a threat to impose tariffs on autos and insisted his steel and aluminum tariffs were giving a boost to the American economy.\n\u201cNAFTA I could sign tomorrow, but I\u2019m not happy with it. I want to make it more fair,\u201d he said.\nAnd because there\u2019s not enough uncertainty on the table amid all the testiness, now there\u2019s a new leader to throw into the mix. On Sunday, Mexican voters handed an overwhelming majority to Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador. The president-elect said he supports reaching a deal on renegotiating NAFTA with the United States and Canada. Although he wants to see his own team of negotiators included in the talks, he\u2019s said he will respect the current team of negotiators, and let them continue representing Mexico until he takes office Dec. 1. Mexico\u2019s chief negotiator has also said there will be no change in their position. Beyond much-mulled mystery tours and looming trade wars, Kady O\u2019Malley has this look at what else we\u2019re watching this week. The National Inquiry into Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls has been plagued by delays, departures and complaints from families about disorganization. Now, Breen Ouellette, a lawyer for the inquiry, has announced he\u2019s resigned. In a statement, he said he believes the federal government has \u201cundermined the independence and impartiality of the national inquiry\u201d and that he cannot remain part of a process he says \u201cis speeding towards failure.\u201d He\u2019s asked the inquiry\u2019s commissioners to allow him to fully disclose the reasons behind his resignation, which he says he cannot do as a lawyer.

AROUND THE WORLD This just in from the kindergarten sandbox: Canada is not being nice to America. Canada has taken advantage of American niceness. That\u2019s the word from White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders. Yesterday, a day after Canada\u2019s counter-tariffs came into effect, she said escalating the tariffs \u201cdoes nothing to help Canada and only hurts American workers.\u201d\n\u201cWe\u2019ve been very nice to Canada for many years and they\u2019ve taken advantage of that,\u201d Sanders said during her daily press briefing in Washington. \u201cThe president is working to trying to fix the broken system and he\u2019s going to continue pushing for that.\u201d We probably stole their shovel too, eh? For his part, Trump continues to defend the tariffs he\u2019s slapped on allies \u2014 even though allies are swinging back. Yesterday during a meeting at the White House with Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte, he said that if a trade deal can be worked out with the European Union \u201cit\u2019ll be positive, and if we don\u2019t, it\u2019ll be positive also.\u201d Rutte\u2019s response was curt: \u201cNo. It\u2019s not positive. We have to work something out.\u201d Still on the making friends front: Yesterday, the New York Times reported that Trump has sent letters to the leaders of NATO allies, including Germany, Belgium and Norway, demanding they increase their defense spending and threatening to alter the U.S. global military presence if they do not. That was first reported by iPolitics on June 22, when we obtained a copy of the letter Trump sent to Trudeau. At that time, military sources said similar letters had been sent to other NATO countries. Turning to the Supreme Court, Trump said he had a \u201cvery, very interesting morning\u201d yesterday while interviewing candidates to replace retiring Justice Anthony Kennedy. He\u2019s met with four so far and plans to meet with two or three more candidates before making a final decision over the next few days. \u201cThey are outstanding people. They are really incredible people in so many different ways,\u201d Trump told reporters. More from The Hill. Meanwhile, Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer is under pressure from the left to whip Democrats hard to oppose any Supreme Court nominee who might vote to overturn Roe v. Wade, the landmark decision that established a woman\u2019s right to an abortion.\nA federal investigation into Facebook\u2019s sharing of data with political consultancy Cambridge Analytica has broadened to focus on the actions and statements of the tech giant and now involves multiple agencies, including the Securities and Exchange Commission. As the Washington Post reports, representatives for the FBI, the SEC and the Federal Trade Commission have joined the Department of Justice in its inquiries about the two companies and the sharing of personal information of 71 million Americans, suggesting the wide-ranging nature of the investigation, said five people, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss a probe that remains incomplete.\nGerman Chancellor Angela Merkel\u2018s conservatives have settled a row over migration that had threatened to topple her fragile governing coalition, after talks with her rebellious Interior Minister led him to drop his threat to resign.

Seems to us, while this could be endlessly funny for iPhone users watching this unfold from the sidelines, now might be the time to move all your photos onto a computer, and then delete them off your phone. Because we all know you have some photos on there that nobody has any business seeing! On that note, have a great day \u2014 and protect the nudes!!",

        "raw_content": "July 4, 2016 July 11, 2016 / Sam I Am\nHello again, and happy July 4th. As we celebrate the 240th anniversary of our independence from England I am also celebrating the 5th anniversary of my independence from the gurus. You see, it was their failed predictions of an RV in June of 2011 that prompted me to research the dinar for myself which is why I am here today. Hopefully Marcus and I will be able to help more dinarians to gain their independence as well.\nAs I\u2019m sure you noticed, the dinar went nowhere in June. That\u2019s because the CBI (Central Bank of Iraq for the newbies) didn\u2019t want it to. They may have no choice before long, however. The lower oil prices and the cost of fighting ISIS (not to mention the drop in dinar sales which was their #2 export) has brought about an economic crunch in the country, which could drive the dinar\u2019s value down even further. Look for another drop by the end of the year to around 1190:1. If they even survive until then. Take a look at this.\nThe International Monetary Fund has agreed to give Iraq a three-year $5.4bn bailout to help it manage the economic fallout of its war against Isis and low oil prices that have left a gaping hole in its budget.\nThe new rescue package, which the IMF said should be accompanied by assistance from other members of the international community, will require the government in Baghdad to implement unpopular cuts in public spending and other reforms at a time when the economy is already reeling.\n\u201cIraq has been hit hard by the conflict with Isis and the precipitous fall in oil prices,\u201d said Christian Josz, IMF mission chief for Iraq.\nHe added that the conflict with Isis had left more than 4m Iraqis internally displaced and was straining resources, while the steep fall in oil prices was \u201ccausing a large external shock to the balance of payments and budget revenue, which depend predominantly on oil export receipts\u201d.\nUN diplomats in Baghdad and officials in Washington say Iraq\u2019s foreign backers are determined to get support to Iraq at a time when both the central government and the semi-autonomous Kurdistan administration in the north \u2014 both critical in the fight against Isis \u2014 look on the verge of economic collapse. With no money for repairs, several cities recaptured from Isis still lie in ruins.\nHowever, Iraqi politicians privately said last week that the government may not be able to meet the terms of the IMF deal \u2014 which include fighting corruption and money laundering, as well as cutting subsidies and raising taxes.\nHaidar al-Abadi, prime minister, is struggling to combat the patronage system, which has enriched Iraqi politicians since the US occupation of 2003. As well as facing rebellion from an elite struggling to keep privileges, Mr Abadi has been grappling with turmoil on the streets. Protesters led by Muqtada Sadr, a Shia cleric, last month ransacked parliament, demanding reform.\nLast summer protests raged in several cities over shoddy electricity and water services. Politicians fear the unrest could return if they try to cut subsidies or increase taxes \u2014 especially if services do not improve.\nOil income used to account for 95 per cent of government revenues, but the price of Iraq\u2019s oil has fallen from $103 per barrel at the end of 2013 to $22-23 per barrel earlier this year.\nThe low price, combined with continuing high public spending, has left a budget gap that the IMF forecast would reach $17bn this year, or 12 per cent of GDP.\nTo address the shortfall, the IMF has been working on a multi-billion-dollar programme with the government that includes participation of institutions such as the World Bank and G7 countries such as the US. In December, the IMF said it was lending $1.2bn to Baghdad,\nMr Josz said the IMF had agreed with the government on a three-year programme of economic and financial policies to bring spending in line with lower oil revenues and ensure the sustainability of debts. However, he cautioned that the measures would still need broad international support.\n\u201cThe Iraqi authorities deserve the support of the international community in the implementation of these policies,\u201d he said.\nThe new programme marks the third time in the past six years that Baghdad has turned to the IMF for help. A previous $3.7bn bailout expired in February 2013, and the Fund made a $1.2bn disbursement in July 2015.\nhttp://www.ft.com/cms/s/0/2b79ac54-1de1-11e6-b286-cddde55ca122.html#axzz4DRimd4rx\nCharred bodies still being pulled from Baghdad bombing that killed 200\nThe gurus won\u2019t admit it but Iraq is on the verge of becoming a failed state. The last thing on their minds is making Western investors rich by raising the value of their currency to an unprecedented level. They\u2019re just trying to feed their people, prevent civil war, and keep Iraq from falling into the hands of radicals. Our government doesn\u2019t seem too inclined to do much to help, so that\u2019s a pretty tall order for Iraq to handle on their own.\nYou may have noticed that Dinar Daddy\u2019s website is down. It\u2019s been that way for over a month now. No idea why but as soon as I hear something I\u2019ll pass that along.\nAs for ICW, we\u2019ve got a few more videos to upload on YouTube and another podcast coming. The other day Marcus and I had the opportunity to chat a bit with Nick Giammarino, from the Global Currency Reset YouTube channel. Nick discovered the dinar \u201cinvestment\u201d in late 2013, and shortly thereafter discovered our blogs where he got the answers he was looking for. He has a large following on YouTube and as a result he has a certain amount of pull in the dinar community. So be looking for that. Until next time.\ndinar, dinar facts, dinar opinions, Dinar Recaps, dinar research, dinar revalue, Dinar Scam, dinar truth, dinar updates, GCR, Global Currency Reset, Iraqi Dinar, iraqi dinar facts, iraqi dinar scam, redenominate, Revalue, The Truth About The Coming Global Currency Reset, Truth About Dinar\n\u2190 Adam Montana Turns 40\nThose Wacky Annunaki \u2192\nI\u2019d have to rate \u201c\u2026. not to mention the drop in dinar sales which was their #2 export\u2026.. \u201d as a pretty big distortion. I don\u2019t know if the total annual dinar flow out of Iraq ever got to say $300M worth per year, which it would have to do get the #2 spot. I suspect that is off by 5x-10x, but $30M per year would still be in the top 5 of exports. But even that is pretty distorted as all exports other than oil are tiny so as to not really be an important factor economically speaking (which is of course part of their problem, no export diversification). In this case #2 is less than 1% of #1, so oil is really all there is and all the rest, including dinar sales, is pretty irrelevant from the standpoint of the macro-economics of the country. Currency sales are also very different from other types of exports since it doesn\u2019t employ lots of people and add money to the economy. It mostly helps the banks and that indirectly can help the economy but not like actually producing something. So calling it (in the past) their #2 export is pretty misleading.\nIraq being on the verge of a failed state? Yep I\u2019m afraid that is possible. I hope they can step back from the abyss, but the prospects don\u2019t look good.\nHello again, JRG. If I\u2019m not mistaken we\u2019ve had this discussion before, but I\u2019ll go over some numbers again just in case. First, according to MIT Iraq\u2019s #2 export in 2014 was gold at around $115 million. http://atlas.media.mit.edu/en/profile/country/irq/ But for the sake of argument we\u2019ll use your number. Ali Agha from Dinar Trade said that he was selling between 500 and 600 million dinar a day in 2009/2010. Discounting weekends and holidays that\u2019s about $125 million a year. I think the total annual sales from various banks and currency exchange services around the world would probably be at least that much. True, banks quit selling dinar a few years ago but they were selling it up until around 2011. Add to that the sales from Sterling (who did a total of $600 million before they were shut down early this year), Dinar Inc., Dinar Corp, Treasury Vault, Safe Dinar, The BH Group, Tampa Dinar, G.I.D., and a few other dinar dealers and I think you would be approaching $400 million during the peak years of 2009-2011. Deducting the 20% markup and the total of sellbacks to the dealers and even your figure of $300 million is easily surpassable IMO. Another way to look at this is from a news article that said 80% of the 35 trillion outside of the banks was outside of Iraq, which would come to about 28 trillion dinar. Probably 80% of that was in the hands of speculators and dealers, which would come to about 22 trillion dinar worth about $20 billion. Over a ten year period (2004-2014) that would be an average of about $2 billion worth of dinar being exported from Iraq each year. Even if that figure is off by a factor of two you\u2019re still talking about $1 billion a year in dinar exports, which I would consider substantial. That\u2019s how I arrive at my claim that the dinar was their #2 export.",

        "raw_content": "Home > About > Facilities & Resources\nInstitute of Sacred Music Facilities\nThe facilities for the Institute of Sacred Music are located primarily on Prospect Hill. The Sterling Divinity Quadrangle houses the ISM Great Hall\u2013a multi-purpose room used for classes, rehearsals, and other events\u2013and also provides offices for some ISM faculty and staff. The organ studio contains the Martin Pasi organ from 2011 and is used for teaching and practice. Four organ practice rooms are available to those taking organ lessons and three piano practice rooms are open for general usage. The ISM choral library houses over 7,500 titles for use by the many ensembles sponsored by the ISM.\nThe newly renovated Miller Hall, at 406 Prospect, opened in 2018 to provide space for administrative staff, fellows, and additional faculty of the Institute of Sacred Music. Built first as a private home in 1909 by Yale graduate and New York architect Grosvenor Atterbury, it then was operated by Dwight Hall at Yale as the International Student Center from 1948-2005. In 2018, the building was named Miller Hall in honor of Clementine Miller Tangeman and Xenia S. and J. Irwin Miller, the primary benefactors of the Yale Institute of Sacred Music. In addition to offices, Miller Hall contains the Clementine Miller Tangeman Common Room used for informal gatherings, as well as a workroom for students, meeting rooms, and teaching spaces.\nSchool of Music Facilities\nThe main buildings of the School of Music are Leigh Hall at 435 College Street; Sprague Memorial Hall, which also houses Morse Recital Hall, at 470 College Street; and Hendrie Hall at 165 Elm Street. The Adams Center for Musical Arts, which opened in January 2017, connects Leigh Hall and the newly renovated Hendrie Hall by way of a new structure that includes a student commons with a four-story atrium. For the first time, musicians from across campus can come together and interact as one community. The complex is a state-of-the-art facility with enhanced acoustics and the latest instructional technology in all spaces. The Adams Center\u2019s three-story orchestra rehearsal hall is the first home for the Yale Philharmonia and Yale Symphony Orchestra. Reimagined spaces in Hendrie Hall house the University bands and the Yale Glee Club; the School\u2019s opera, brass, and percussion departments; an Ensemble Library for all resident ensembles; and the deputy dean\u2019s office. Twenty-six new practice studios and six classrooms provide space for Yale College and Yale School of Music students to meet, study, practice, and rehearse chamber music.\nThe Yale University Collection of Musical Instruments, containing nearly one thousand instruments, is located at 15 Hillhouse Avenue. Woolsey Hall, which contains the Newberry Memorial Organ, is used throughout the year for numerous concerts and recitals.\nMarquand Chapel, at the heart of Sterling Divinity Quadrangle, is home to an E.M. Skinner organ, a Hammond B-3 electronic organ, and the Baroque-style Krigbaum Organ by Taylor & Boody. These instruments, the acoustics, and its flexible seating arrangements make Marquand Chapel a unique performance space at Yale.\nDivinity School Facilities\nThe Sterling Divinity Quadrangle at 409 Prospect Street is the home of the Institute of Sacred Music. The complex also includes the Yale Divinity School, Berkeley Divinity School at Yale, the Center for Faith and Culture, Marquand Chapel, classrooms, administrative offices, the Divinity Library, dining hall, common room, and two guest lodges.\nSince 1971, Berkeley Divinity School at Yale, an Episcopal seminary, has been affiliated with Yale Divinity School. Berkeley Divinity School retains its identity through its board of trustees, its dean, and the Berkeley Center located at 363 St. Ronan Street. Episcopal students come under the care of the dean of Berkeley Divinity School for spiritual formation and counseling, but are not differentiated from other Yale Divinity School students. As a result of the affiliation, there is one integrated student body and faculty.",

        "raw_content": "Toyota said on Friday that it would begin negotiations to settle hundreds of pending federal and state lawsuits over the sudden acceleration of its vehicles.\nThe decision comes two months after a Toyota Camry\u2019s electronic throttle system was found to be defective by an Oklahoma jury. In that case, the jury found that Toyota had acted with \u201creckless disregard,\u201d despite reports of problems in the cars, and was liable for a crash in 2005 that killed one woman and injured another.\nToyota had won its first three sudden-acceleration trials; the Oklahoma verdict was the automaker\u2019s first loss. Legal analysts said that the verdict most likely spurred Toyota to pursue a broad settlement of its remaining cases.\n\u201cI think Toyota believed that the Oklahoma case exposed the company to much greater liability than was previously thought,\u201d said Carl Tobias, a professor who specializes in product liability at the University of Richmond School of Law.\nThe negotiations could put an end to a four-year process that has both hurt Toyota financially and dealt a blow to its reputation for quality. In July, Toyota agreed to pay $1.6 billion to settle a class-action lawsuit brought by vehicle owners who suffered financial losses.\nToyota still faces hundreds of personal injury and wrongful death suits, though. Most of those have been consolidated in California courts, and the decision to pursue a comprehensive settlement process will suspend that litigation. Lawyers representing plaintiffs in those cases said that the talks would save both sides time and legal costs.\n\u201cIt indicates there is a willingness on both sides to sit at the table and discuss the resolution of every case,\u201d said Moses Lebovits, who represents plaintiffs in two sudden-acceleration cases scheduled to be heard in California state court next year.\n\u201cIt also takes a markedly shorter period of time,\u201d Mr. Lebovits said. \u201cWe\u2019re talking about hours and days rather than weeks and months.\u201d\nToyota said a settlement process would help the automakers and the plaintiffs move forward faster. Since 2009, Toyota has recalled more than 11 million Toyota and Lexus vehicles for problems including floor mats that caused the accelerator to become stuck.\n\u201cIn our view, this process will bring greater efficiency to the resolution of pending cases and provide a clear path forward for those claims that cannot be resolved outside of trial,\u201d Carly Schaffner, a Toyota spokeswoman, said in a statement on Friday. \u201cWe continue to stand behind the safety and quality of our vehicles and are grateful to our customers who have continued to stand behind Toyota.\u201d\nA hearing has been set for Jan. 14 in United States District Court for the Central District of California in Santa Ana, Calif.\n\u201cToyota is anxious to get these unintended acceleration woes behind it, and the recent verdict in Oklahoma only highlights the potential for it to drag on indefinitely,\u201d said Karl Brauer, a senior analyst with Kelley Blue Book.\n\u201cThe automaker can quickly calculate the cost of settling these lawsuits, while the ongoing hit to its quality and safety reputation is difficult to predict should these trials continue over the next decade.\u201d\nA lawyer representing the women\u2019s families said the verdict in that case most likely spurred Toyota to seek a settlement in its remaining cases because the automaker must now prove that a vehicle defect did not cause the unintended acceleration.\n\u201cI am not surprised that Toyota wants to resolve these cases,\u201d said Jere Beasley, a lawyer with Beasley Allen in Montgomery, Ala. \u201cThere will be other large verdicts unless Toyota resolves these cases.\u201d\nToyota faces more negative spillover than plaintiffs lawyers do when it loses a case, said Gregory Keating, a professor at the University of Southern California Gould School of Law.\n\u201cIt is in general good for Toyota to put the entire episode behind them,\u201d Mr. Keating said. \u201cEvery case reminds consumers of the issue, which will otherwise fade from memory. Every loss reminds consumers that there was a genuine problem.\u201d",

It\u2019s up to you to make your life as great as you want it to be. Here are 5 steps to help you make a positive change in your life.\n1. Identify What You Want\nFigure out what you want from life. Do you want to write a memoir? Then write it. Sit down and map out exactly how you\u2019re going to make that happen. Are you tired of looking in the mirror and seeing a body that you\u2019re not happy with? Then make a plan to change your body. Decide what steps you have to take to get the body of your dreams. You see where I\u2019m going here. Whatever it is, identify what you want and strategize how to make it happen.\nTake control of your life. Realize how powerful you are. If you don\u2019t like something, recognize that you have the power to change it. Empower yourself to know that you can do absolutely anything you set your mind to.\nExcuses are for people who don\u2019t really want things. If you want to make something happen, you can. It\u2019s that simple. There\u2019s no such thing as being too busy. You can always find time for what\u2019s important to you.\n4. Decide How Badly You Want It\nIf you want to lose weight but you say you have no time, think about the men and women who wake up at 5 AM to go to the gym before work. Can that be you? I think so! Are you ready to devote your weekends to making your dreams come true? Successful authors who have a full time job spend their Saturday\u2019s and Sunday\u2019s writing their book. That can be you too. Whatever your goal is, you can make it come true.\nWhen you get into the mindset that you can do anything you want, positive things will happen. Your mind is very powerful. Tell yourself that you deserve greatness, and then make that happen!\nbest matchmaker, carly spindel, dating advice, dating tips, janis spindel, matchmaker, nyc matchmaker, positive tips, relationship advice",

This is a relatively small city, but a beautiful one because of its location right next to the ocean. The sea was deep blue, the weather comfortable, and the people very friendly. Although I did not take a picture of it, I did partake in the local food favorite: udon. The trip was a success and I would one day love to come back and spend more time exploring the area.",

        "raw_content": "Hardy Crypt\nChoctaw Books\nSaving Trumpet Records\n309 Farish Street, the home of Trumpet Records, is a ruin.\nTrumpet Records was the first record company in Mississippi to achieve national stature. The premiere releases by Mississippi blues legends Sonny Boy Williamson II, Elmore James and Willie Love appeared on Trumpet in 1951. Early Mississippi gospel and country artists also appeared on the Trumpet label.\nThe impact of Trumpet Records on American music has been profound and lasting, but the site of the studio is rapidly decaying. The building that housed this jewel in the crown of Mississippi music has not only lost its luster, but it\u2019s become a dilapidated shell. While the roof and walls are intact, they\u2019re barren and pitted, covered with patches of peeling paint and without windows, open to the erosive elements of weather.\nMusician Sherman Lee Dillon is the driving force behind a group of people who seek to preserve and restore the building with an eye to commemorating Trumpet Records and its music. \u201cWhat we\u2019re trying to do is ensure that the old building where these legends laid down some the most famous tracks in Mississippi music is preserved. Maybe we can even to get some momentum going towards the restoration of Farish Street itself.\u201d\nDillon notes that the 30-year efforts to restore the Farish Street District by massive infusions of public funding have stalled. \u201cWe think it\u2019s worthwhile to give private initiative a chance.\u201d\nTo that end, Dillon and his group have secured a lease on 309 North Farish Street, one of the few privately-owned properties in the Farish Street Historical District. Dillon said that he asked the owners not to lease or sell 309 Farish until he had an opportunity to restore it.\nSherman Lee Dillon\n\u201cThey have stuck to their word for three years and not seriously entertained any other offers,\u201d he said. \u201cBut I have not been able to find any pockets to get money from, and I am in not in a situation for matching funds. The city does nothing to support the project, even though the mayor drops by from time to time. I can\u2019t wait any longer. If I can\u2019t get the money to restore it, Trumpet Records goes on the block.\u201d\nDillon said that once the building is secured, he will work on creating a nonprofit business, a museum and a recording studio. \u201cI am personal friends with musicians who have played with several Mississippi blues people, Johnny Taylor, Milton, Bobby Rush, Dorothy Moore, BB King and Albert King.\u201d Dillon points out that while Trumpet had some national recognition, their recordings of local celebrities might be one of the most interesting aspects of the proposed museum.\n\u201cThere are collections of \u2018The Hillbilly Sides\u2019, spirituals recordings, rock-a-billy recordings as well as blues recordings that connect to people still living in the area,\u201d he said. \u201cThe singers and artists that didn\u2019t quite have the combination to go national, are often the most fun,\u201d he said. \u201cThese songs would be on a jukebox for people to sample and pictures of them people would be on the wall.\u201d\n\u201cThe problem is that there\u2019s no money for restoration,\u201d Dillon said. \u201cThe agreement I have with the owners is for two years\u2019 rent, $48,000, paid in advance within 30 days. That money will be used exclusively for the restoration of 309. Any money that comes from the operation of 309 for the next two years will be to further the services of the restoration.\n\u201cAll I can say is that if this doesn\u2019t work, a golden opportunity has been missed.\u201d\nDetails available at Save Trumpet Records\nLion\u2019s Manes\nJefferson College Memorial\nSapsucker Bark\nPaying Our Dues to the Blues\nThe blues have shaped American music for over a century, and many people the world over consider blues music Mississippi\u2019s greatest contribution to global culture.\nIn recognition of this distinction, the state created the Mississippi Blues Commission (MBC) in 2005. Its original charter established a statewide Blues Trail, but it soon became clear that more was needed than just historical sites and signs. As Rep. Willie Bailey explains, \u201cWhen the Blues Commission started putting up Trail markers across the state we discovered that many grassroots blues pioneers, artists and musicians were experiencing hardships due to misfortune and poverty.\u201d\n\u201cThe markers allowed the state to profit on tourism from an art form kept alive by these faithful souls,\u201d Bailey said. \u201cBut as the Commission carried on its work, there were requests from destitute artists for a little help to get through hard times.\u201d Bailey pointed out that back then there was no legal way for the Blues Commission to respond to their needs, but the Legislature passed the necessary legislation allowing the Commission to act. In 2010, the Mississippi Blues Commission was authorized \u201cto raise and expend grant funds to provide assistance to any blues musician in need.\u201d The Blues Benevolent Committee was created to oversee the distribution of these funds. Now any established blues musician in need can apply for up to $1,000 in a 12-month period.\nDr. Edgar Smith, chairman of the Blues Benevolent Committee, said, \u201cAs a son of the Delta, I am keenly aware of the challenges that confront these artists on a daily basis. Many blues musicians, especially the older ones, have no health insurance and no other source of income other than what they get from blues gigs. It\u2019s appropriate for Mississippi to have some mechanism for assisting the people from whom the blues derived. The Benevolence Fund represents the effort of on the part of the Mississippi Blues Commission to address this issue. I envision a future in which this effort will become the major focus of the MBC to the extent that it will approach the scale of the Music Maker Relief Foundation of Hillsborough, NC.\u201d\nThe Music Maker Relief Foundation, founded in 1994, helps support elder blues and Appalachian artists. Their Musician Sustenance Program provides monthly stipends (typically $50 \u2013 $200), grants for emergencies and periodic needs for health care as well as other services. In 2012-13, Music Maker\u2019s budget exceeded $630,000.\nThe Mississippi Blues Foundation, the fundraising arm of the MBC, spearheads efforts to secure money for the Blues Benevolent Committee\u2019s separate grants fund. Most funds come from private donations, but the sale of car tags and donations from the annual Mississippi Blues Marathon also contribute to the fund. John Noblin, director of the marathon, said that the marathon is on the fast track to help.\n\u201cWe have included a specific donation option for participants on the registration form because we want to generate money earmarked for the Benevolent Committee,\u201d Noblin said. \u201cIn years we\u2019ve made a $10,000 donation to the Mississippi Blues Commission in general. But contributing directly to the Benevolent Committee was the perfect way to tie in with the wellness component and Blue Cross Blue Shield of Mississippi\u2019s involvement because it covers financial shortfalls with health-related issues.\u201d\nTo date, the Mississippi Blues Benevolent Committee has awarded grants totaling $16,000to 18 artists, including James \u201cT-Model\u201d Ford; \u201cCadillac\u201d John Nolden; Tommie \u201cT-Bone\u201d Pruitt; Bill \u201cHowlin\u2019 Madd\u201d Perry; Jim O\u2019Neal, producer and a co-founder of Living Blues magazine; Duff Dorrough, founding member of The Tangents; and Eddie \u201cChank\u201d Willis, winner of the 2013 Mississippi Governor\u2019s Arts Award for excellence in music.\nMalcolm White, former director of the Mississippi Arts Commission, said, \u201cThe blues is based on hard times, and for many years the cultural and heritage movements in Mississippi have sought to honor these artists and support them when hard times come back around. Now that the Benevolent Committee has been established under Dr. Smith\u2019s leadership and persistence, we have finally put our money where our mouths are.\u201d\n\u201cHelping our native sons and daughters is the right thing to do,\u201d Bailey said. \u201cTo come to the aid of suffering blues artists and musicians expresses Mississippi\u2019s appreciation and recognition of their contributions to this native art form. We don\u2019t want them standing on a corner with a cup begging, \u2018Brother, can you spare a dime?\u2019\u201d\n\u201cPeople talk about keeping the blues alive,\u201d Smith said, \u201cbut we need to keep these people alive, too.\u201d\n(For more information about the Mississippi Blues Benevolent Fund, contact Dr. Edgar Smith at: 601-713-2756)",

        "raw_content": "Cover and Blurb Reveal for Girl off the Grid!\nCover and Blurb Reveal!\nFrom USA Today bestselling author, Jillian Dodd, and her daughter, Kenzie Harp, comes a travel romance that will take you on the adventure of a lifetime.\nTo purchase at any vendor, click HERE.\nTo read the exclusive iBooks sneak peek, click HERE.\nPart of our goal in writing this book is to make a difference. 10% of our profits (20% during release week) from this book will be donated to the Sea Turtle Conservatory. It is the oldest sea turtle research and conservation group. It was founded in 1959 by Dr. Archie Carr. Their headquarters are in Florida, but they have programs worldwide that work to conserve sea turtle populations through education, research, advocacy, and protection of natural habitats. They also have a research station in Tortuguero, Costa Rica, which was one of the places visited in the book. For more information on the Sea Turtle Conservatory, click here.\nFrom Jillian:\nSometimes it\u2019s the little moments in your life that can have a profound effect. For my daughter, it happened during an eco-trip to Costa Rica, where she was going to help \u201csave the turtles.\u201d I assumed it would be a fun little trip. She\u2019d always loved animals, her best friend was going, and she\u2019d even earn science credits. I sent my little girl into the jungle and got back a mature young woman with a much bigger picture of the world, how people live, and our impact on the environment.\nAs we were writing this book together six years later, I realized more fully what an impact this trip had on her. She\u2019s now fully vegan because of the negative environmental impact the meat industry has. She\u2019s traveled to different parts of the world every summer since to learn more about the way people live. She\u2019s concerned about our environment and obsessed with history. She\u2019d give every dime she earns to help animal and environmental causes if she could, just graduated college with honors in International Studies, and has written this book in hopes that she can raise awareness with those who don\u2019t have the opportunity to travel the way she has.\nIt was so much fun teaming up with Kenzie to make this book a reality. I hope that as you followed Camille\u2019s journey you came to understand how the economy of a country can have a detrimental impact on both the environment and its wildlife and learned how small changes in your daily life can have a positive impact on our world.\nFrom Kenzie:\nIf you\u2019re interested in learning more about me, staying up-to-date on news, or if you want to find out more about my trip or similar trips, click here to visit my website and be sure to follow me on social media.",

        "raw_content": "Diets, Nutrition|angioplasties, bypass surgery, Dr. Esselstyn, Dr. Oz, heart disease, reversing heart disease|jughandle| November 2, 2011 1\nYou may have the inclination to pass over this blog because of the subject matter. Please don\u2019t, it is short and to the point and it may save your life. \u2013 Jughandle\nDr. Esselstyn\u2019s 20 year study\nDr. Esselstyn\u2019s 20 year study has proven that changing your diet can reverse heart disease.\nStill the leading cause of death in America, heart disease is almost always treated with the prehistoric method of surgery. Surgery doesn\u2019t prevent or cure heart disease it only buys you more time, but at a major cost. Thomas A. Preston, MD says that over half of the by-pass surgeries preformed are unnecessary. He goes on to say that money is the driving factor to preform these surgeries. According to the Texas Heart Institute, over 230,000 people have bypass surgery each year. A doctor can easily make upwards of $700,000 per year doing nothing but bypass surgery. Not to mention the hospital and all the other necessary components of the surgery. This is a major industry and when you have major industries, people tend to perpetuate these industries, not find ways to change them. Just look at the petroleum industry to see a perfect example of that.\nDr. Esselstyn\u2019s program argues that a plant-based, oil-free diet can not only prevent and stop the progression of heart disease it can also reverse its effects. The initial study included 17 patients with advanced coronary artery disease. These patients had already received bypass surgery and angioplasties and 5 of the original group were told by their cardiologists they had less than a year to live. Within just months of starting the program, their cholesterol levels as well as their blood flow and angina symptoms had improved dramatically. After 12 years,of the 17 patients that stuck to the diet, all had no further cardiac events. Patients that adhered to the diet survived beyond twenty years without further symptoms.\nThe patients on the diet originally had an average of 246 mg/dL cholesterol readings. After 5 years the average was just 137 mg/dL. Above 240 is considered high risk and below 150 is found in cultures where heart disease is non-existent.\nThe original 17 patients in the study had already had 49 cardiac events in the years leading up to the study. All had undergone aggressive treatment procedures such as bypass surgery, with several having multiple bypass operations. Once the plan started, there were no more cardiac events in the group within a 12-year period. Angiograms taken of the patients showed a widening of the coronary arteries indicating a reversal of the disease.\nFrom Dr. Oz\nLife-Saving One-Month Food Plan\n1. Get the Plaque Out of Your Arteries\nTrim the fat and overhaul your diet. Under the Reversal Diet, only 10% of your diet comes from fat; 15-20% comes from protein; and 70-75% comes from complex carbohydrates. Your body can start to heal once you stop doing what\u2019s causing the problem in the first place; if you stop consuming the food that contributed to the blockages in your arteries, your body will have a better chance of rebooting and recovering. Incorporate heart-healthy foods into your diet that contain protective and preventive nutrients. A plant-based diet of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, legumes and soy products in their natural, unrefined forms not only helps to reverse heart disease, but also possesses anti-cancer and anti-aging properties.\nOatmeal with dried cranberries\n4oz. of natural vegetable or fruit juice\nEating oatmeal is a great non-fat way to get your complex carbohydrates.\nNon-fat granola bar\nOne cup of tea; green tea, without milk or sugar, is ideal\nStir-fried veggies with low-sodium teriyaki sauce and brown rice\nGreen salad with edamame, chickpeas, beans and fat-free raspberry dressing, and one whole wheat roll\nA lunch like this provides plenty of protein, from non-animal sources.\nTacos: black beans, brown rice, fat-free sour cream, fat-free cheese and salsa; corn tortillas\nThese tacos are low in fat and high in protein.\nHummus with assorted dipping vegetables\nI have concluded that this is the direction I need to go in order to prevent and even reverse any heart disease I might have. My father and his brother both had heart disease and died from heart attacks. I\u2019d like to prevent that from happening to me and anyone else that is willing to take the steps necessary to live a more healthy life. Please join me to create a place where any one can go to find the information they need to extend their life. The Fat Farm need good healthy recipes that will be interesting to eat and fun to make. This doesn\u2019t have to be dull or boring. \u2013 jughandle\nDiet Soda \u2013 Good or Bad?\nBeverages, Diets, Nutrition|artificial sweeteners, Aspartame, diet drinks, obesity, sucralose|jughandle| October 20, 2011 7\nWhether it\u2019s zero or one calorie, if it still tastes sweet it has been flavored with artificial sweeteners. More and more information is being gathered on the harmful effects of aspartame and sucralose among others. Sure they help you avoid the calorie intake from naturally sweetened drinks if you are in the \u201chabit\u201d of drinking several a day, but at what cost. A study at Purdue University discovered that test subjects tend to consume more calories later in the day when they have been fed artificial sweeteners prior to meal time. A Texas study found that people who consume just 3 diet sodas per week are 40 percent more likely to be obese.\nA few of the 90 different documented symptoms listed in the report as being caused by aspartame include: Headaches/migraines, dizziness, seizures, nausea, numbness, muscle spasms, weight gain, rashes, depression, fatigue, irritability, tachycardia, insomnia, vision problems, hearing loss, heart palpitations, breathing difficulties, anxiety attacks, slurred speech, loss of taste, tinnitus, vertigo, memory loss, and joint pain.\nIf you have any of the listed maladies above, maybe you are having side effects of artificial sweeteners and not symptoms of old age or something else. In fact Aspartame can even trigger or worsen brain tumors, multiple sclerosis, epilepsy, chronic fatigue syndrome, parkinson\u2019s disease, alzheimer\u2019s, mental retardation, lymphoma, birth defects, fibromyalgia, and diabetes according to Mercola.com.\nGoogle it and read for yourself. This stuff is chemical poison.\nAre You psychologically or physically addicted to Diet drinks?\nIf you just \u201chave\u201d to have your diet drink everyday it doesn\u2019t matter what is causing your addiction. You need to stop. If you drink caffeinated diet drinks it is likely you are addicted to caffeine. Your problem might just be simple compulsive behavior disorder. Switch your addiction to something healthy like tea or better yet, water. But as we here at the Fat Farm like to preach, \u201cyou can do almost anything in moderation.\u201d If you have cravings, you most likely have another problem that needs to be addressed.\nAccording to the American Psychiatric Association, \u201ca key sign of substance dependence is when a person continues to use a substance even when he or she knows it\u2019s causing physical or mental health problems.\u201d\nCheck out this study on diet drinks and heart attacks \u2013 Are you willing to risk heart attack by drinking low carb diet soda?\nSTOP DRINKING DIET DRINKS \u2013 PLEASE!!! \u2013 jughandle",

        "raw_content": "The Juiced Life story begins with the common cold. One of the Juiced Life founders had a weak immune system throughout his childhood and teens and was more susceptible to catching whatever illness was going around.\nA friend suggested he try blending his own juices to help improve his general health. He tried random combinations of fruit and vegetables every day and over time began feeling better. He had more energy, more mental clarity and found juicing helped strengthened his immune system. But he felt that more could be done.\nHe decided to look further into juicing which led him to consult a Nutritionist, who worked with him to achieve a more targeted approach towards tapping into the health benefits of juicing. The Nutritionist worked with him to design some recipes and he found they were even more effective, and tastier, than his own prior attempts.\nHe continued his research, where he noticed that most of the juices available on the market were full nasties such as refined sugar and preservatives and that they were focused more on taste than health. After seeing this he decided to share his new-found knowledge by creating a full range of products that would be both nutritionally balanced and great tasting and also by committing to making a positive difference in people's attitude towards a healthier lifestyle.\nFrom there Juiced Life was born.",

        "title": "December 7 \u2013 Letter Writing Day | Juliana Lee",
        "raw_content": "In this day and age of internet communication, letter writing has gone by the wayside. However, there are exceptions for special occasions\u2026 like writing a letter to Santa!\nMy Pen Pal, Santa written by Melissa Stanton and illustrated by Jennifer A. Bell (2013)\nAva begins a year-long letter exchange with Santa in January. She thanks him for the gifts he sent and asks why he didn\u2019t eat the cookies she left him. Santa replies that he is very excited to receive a letter in January and that although he loves cookies, he\u2019s trying to cut back on his sweets. In February, Ava wishes Santa a Happy Valentine\u2019s Day and asks why he signed his last letter \u2018Merry Christmas\u2019 when Christmas was over. Santa explains to her that he loves Christmas and says Merry Christmas all year long. The letters continue throughout the year. With each letter, Ava asks another question and learns more and more about Santa. He tells her that he has never met the Easter Bunny although he did run into the Tooth Fairy once, that it\u2019s okay for some people not to believe in him, that he has a special greenhouse at the North Pole where they grow their own vegetables and Christmas poinsettias, that he doesn\u2019t like to give coal because it makes his hands dirty, that he can see the fireworks from Alaska but usually he just watches the shooting stars at night, that he and Mrs. Claus like to take a vacation before they start their busy season, that he doesn\u2019t celebrate his birthday but he knows that he\u2019s older than her parents, grandparents, and great-grandparents, and that he\u2019s happy that many people give gifts because he would need a much bigger sleigh if he did all the gift giving on Christmas Eve. In her final letter, Ava only asks for one gift for Christmas\u2026 to meet Santa Claus. And the final picture in the book is a picture of Ava giving Santa a plate of carrots on Christmas Eve.\nSecret Santa written and illustrated by Fernleigh Books (2009)\nHave you ever wondered where Santa lives, how he flies, how he gets down chimneys, or why no one has ever seen him? Children have written letters to Santa asking these exact questions. For each letter, Santa write one in return. Each of Santa\u2019s letters begins with the words \u2018I shouldn\u2019t tell you this but\u2026\u2019 and ends with \u2018Remember this is Santa\u2019s secret\u2026 so shhhh!\u2019. Not only is this a fun series of letters to read, it\u2019s also a fun pop-up book with great pictures showing each of Santa\u2019s answers.\nDear Santa: The Letters of James B. Dobbins written by Bill Harley and illustrated by R.W. Alley (2005)\nJames B. Dobbins, aka James Dobbins, aka Jim Dobbins, aka Jimmy Dobbins, aka Jimmy, writes a series of letters to Santa one year. He begins with and extremely long wish list. His second letter is another request, assurances of his \u2018goodness\u2019, and his offer to mail his annoying little sister to him to work as an elf. With each letter, James B. Dobbins becomes more and more familiar in his signature as if he and Santa are becoming the closest of friends. He sends reminders of his wish list, more assurances of his \u2018goodness\u2019 especially with his little sister (which isn\u2019t easy), and some very creative explanations of misdeeds. One of my favorite letters is dated FOUR DAYS TO GO: Jimmy tells Santa about giving his teacher a pencil holder he made himself. He talks about how much fun it was to watch her open it. He wonders why Santa doesn\u2019t hang around a little longer to watch kids open their gifts\u2026 like he says \u2018it\u2019s the best part\u2019. Then the last letter he writes is dated FIVE HOURS BEFORE CHRISTMAS and signed \u2018your old pal, Jimmy\u2019: Jimmy amends his wish list to something more realistic and invites Santa to come to his room to say \u2018hi\u2019 because he knows he won\u2019t be asleep (but don\u2019t go into his sister\u2019s room by mistake) and he leaves Santa a gift also.\nDear Santa Claus written by Alan Durant and illustrated by Vanessa Cabban (2005)\nHolly and her little brother Billy visit Santa at the mall. When they get home, Holly\u2019s mother helps Billy write his Christmas Wish List, but Holly doesn\u2019t write her list\u2026 she writes a letter instead. That night Billy\u2019s list is whisked to the North Pole, and in place of Holly\u2019s letter is a letter from Santa. He answers her question and reminds her to write her list before it gets too late. But instead, Holly writes another letter with more questions. Santa answers her again, but reminds her to send her list or his chief elf will get very grumpy. Holly knows she\u2019s pushing her luck a little bit, but she writes another letter. Santa answers her questions again. Finally, Holly is brave enough to ask Santa what she really wants to know\u2026 it\u2019s her only Christmas wish. On Christmas Eve, Holly watches Santa from her bedroom window. He shows her a special ticket to ride with him on the sleigh. The next morning, Holly finds the ticket on her bed so she knows it wasn\u2019t a dream. Santa really did grant her Christmas wish.\nAnd a couple of old favorites.\nThe Jolly Christmas Postman written by Janet Ahlberg and illustrated by Allan Ahlberg (1991)\nThe Jolly Postman is back in the fairy tale zip code, this time delivering holiday mail. The first stop is the home of the Three Bears. Goldilocks has sent them a Christmas card with a joke she made up herself. Next, he rides his bike to Red Riding Hood\u2019s house to deliver a package from Mr. Wolf. It\u2019s a game for her to play. Only one mile away is the hospital where the Jolly Postman delivers a Get-Well card from the Royal Barracks to their friend, Humpty Dumpty. Then the Gingerbread Boy receives a book from the Pat O\u2019Cakes Bakers. On to the den of Mister Wolf with a special edition of The Wolf Spotter\u2019s Guide. And the final stop on Christmas Eve, is Santa\u2019s Workshop with all of the last minute letters to Santa. He has a cup of tea with Santa and Mrs. Claus, and receives a package of his own. Santa has given the Jolly Postman a fold-out picture card from all his friends and a ride on his sleigh back to his own home, bicycle and all.\nThank You, Santa written by Margaret Wild and illustrated by Kerry Argent (1994)\nI wrote a blog post about this book last December. It had been a classroom favorite of mine, and I have a little history about how I used it in the classroom after the winter break. There is a brief synopsis of the story there too. Please go back and see it HERE.\n2 Responses to \u201cDecember 7 \u2013 Letter Writing Day\u201d\nJane Heitman Healy December 7, 2014 at 1:21 PM #\nThese look wonderful!

        "raw_content": "If you follow me on Twitter, you likely already know about my adventures with July 2018\u2019s Camp NaNoWriMo, but I\u2019m going to talk about it anyway! Saturday night (6/03) at around 10:30 PM, fellow Writers of Queer Fiction founder, Amy Nowacoski asked me if I was participating in Camp NaNo. My initial reaction was:\nI\u2019d heard of NaNoWriMo\u2013I mean, what writer hasn\u2019t? Okay. I\u2019ll bite. If you haven\u2019t heard of NaNoWriMo, here you go:\nNaNoWriMo is an abbreviation for National Novel Writing Month. It\u2019s every November and it\u2019s free to do. The first session was in July 1999, started by freelance writer Chris Baty. That first year, it had 21 participants all in the San Francisco Bay area. The goal? To write 50,000 words (the accepted standard for a full-length novel) in ONE MONTH. Yeah, writers are masochists, and Baty is our King sadist! In 2000, it was moved to November, where it remained. Why was it moved?\nTo more fully take advantage of the miserable weather.\nAccording to Therese Walsh, at least. (Yeah okay, cause the Bay area totally has miserable weather. Excuse me as I stare dubiously off to the side.)\nAnyway, it has gotten more and more popular and more and more successful each year. Now, it has developed into a full-blown fundraising event! I never had any anticipation of being involved. Please, you expect me to write in ONE month what it takes some authors YEARS to do? I started The Daffodil Witch in late February of 2018. After 4 months, I had JUST reached the 30% mark of my book, and people considered that incredibly fast.\nThen, I downloaded this app called Writeometer. Allow me to pimp this app out for a second here. It\u2019s available (for now) only on Android (I\u2019m sure there are others out there for you Apple fans). This app allows you to track your writing as you go in an organized, easy-to-read way.\nIt also has a timer built into it for writing sprints (a writing session, usually 25 minutes or so long, in which a writer blocks out everything and gets as much writing done in one session as possible). I had never done a sprint before, but I was having a hard time getting into the swing of writing, and many days would only get 300 words or so in at a time after about 2 hours of sitting at my computer and instinctively checking Facebook and Twitter while pretending to write.\nOn June 13th, I downloaded this app and set up my book. From that day on, I did 1-2 sprints almost every single night before bed. I went from 30,000 words to 47,000 words in 12 days. (That\u2019s an average of 1,400 words a day, for those of you, like me, who don\u2019t do math.) I managed to do about 700-1,000 words in each 25-minute sprint!\nNow, back to NaNoWriMo. Amy asked me if I was doing it, and I was ready to laugh at her and call her crazy (sorry, Amy, if you\u2019re reading this lol). Then I thought about it and remembered that I had been managing to do up to 2,000 words in just an hour some nights. If I could do that almost every night, I could totally do NaNoWriMo\u2026 and I didn\u2019t have to do a new project, at this point I had less than half my book left to write\u2013less than 45,000 words. So, at 11:00 PM (for those of you paying close attention, yes all this thinking happened over the course of a half hour) I decided \u201cfuck it, I\u2019m gonna try it.\u201d (Cover your ears kids!)\nSO, I signed up and by Midnight, I was ready to go! Now, Camp NaNoWriMo is kind of like NaNoWriMo Lite. It\u2019s held in both April AND July, and you can set your own goal for this one! I set mine to 45,000 since I don\u2019t need 50,000 more words in my book. I made a cabin (cabins are like chatrooms you sign up for with other writers to offer support and watch each other\u2019s progress) for the Writers of Queer Fiction group. (I will ALWAYS link this group because I encourage people to join!!)\nAnd by the way, if you want to join us, please feel free! If you aren\u2019t on Facebook but would like to join our cabin, comment below with your username and I\u2019ll send an invitation!! We\u2019re hip. We\u2019re cool. Come jam with us.\nAaaaanyway, now that Day 1 is over, I thought I would share my thoughts! I am HUGELY goal and deadline driven. I procrastinate terribly, and then when the deadline is upon me, I kick my ass into gear and GET. SHIT. DONE. So, realizing that NaNo was doable for me, I decided to just go for it. I had originally hoped to finish The Daffodil Witch by the end of the year. Now, I am expecting to have it finished BY THE END OF THIS MONTH. How insane is that?!\nSo, before I went to bed I told everyone and their mother that I was going to do 5,000 words on day one. Most of them rolled their eyes at me or reminded me that it was okay if I didn\u2019t, but I knew that if I told people I was going to do it, sheer stubbornness and force of will meant I would get it done! I decided to be antisocial all day Sunday and have a whole day filled with sprints and nothing else.\nSPOILER: I DID IT.\nI got up and went on an early-morning 2-mile power walk. While I was on that walk, actually, I got a chance to use the French I am refreshing myself on for TDW when a man from Quebec came to me to ask for directions. His English was shaky, my French was rough, but in the end, we figured it out and I continued on my walk feeling a little proud of myself!\nWhen I got home, I showered, cleaned and sat down by 10:30 AM to write. Over the course of the day, I did NINE sprints. I gave myself a decent break between each one and got things done around the house, ate something, even ran an errand. I promised myself that if I succeeded in meeting my goal, I would go to the Dairy Queen up the street and get myself a Jurassic Chomp (in chocolate because vanilla ice cream is a travesty).\nWELL, I GOT MY JURASSIC CHOMP, AND IT WAS DAMNED DELICIOUS!! That\u2019s right, at about 9:00 PM I reached 5,337 words!! Took a break to get my ice cream, and while I was there getting it, had a nice Pay It Forward moment.\nTo preface, it was near on 100 degrees out yesterday. I only have air conditioning in the bedrooms upstairs so it was a bit rough going downstairs for anything. When I went out to get my ice cream, I thought I might die from the heat.\nAs I stepped into line, I saw an older gentleman in a full suit standing by, mulling through some change in his hand. He let two people cut him in line, then offered the same to me as he continued to count his change. I couldn\u2019t leave him there counting his change in the hot sun, so when I went up to order, I got my ice cream and turned to him and said \u201cand whatever he\u2019s having. I\u2019m buying his ice cream.\u201d His surprised look and appreciative look after was so sweet, and we chatted for a little while as we waited for our ice cream.\nI got home in the best mood ever, despite the heat.\nBy the time I went to bed just before midnight (I did 2 more sprints and then finished off the last few paragraphs of a chapter while I ate my ice cream) I had written 2 full chapters from start to finish, and got in a whopping 7,211 words for the day!\n7,211 words, for those of you in the back!\nI\u2019m SO happy I decided to join Camp NaNo, and I\u2019m SO excited to see how much I can get done with this motivation! I hope that today I can keep up that momentum and maybe get 3,000 words in, but I won\u2019t hold myself strictly to that number since I do have to work and am going to the gym later. Still, I\u2019ll be super proud of myself if I can do it!!\nThanks for listening to my rambling. Sorry for swearing at you.\nWriter\u2019s of Queer Fiction\nPrevious postLove and Support: My Journey toward Motherhood \u2013 Dacia M Arnold\nNext postBook Review: Unfit to Print by KJ Charles",

Hopefully, in the next week or so, it'll be available at B&N, Kobo and Scribd. I'll post another update when I know more.\nCreatespace Just print edition\nAmazon Ebook & Print is listed\nInktera/Page Foundry\nhttp://www.inktera.com/store/title/45dc4c94-8c7f-46d9-b3e1-23c11178b718\nHappy Author Day!\nThat's right, my friends. Today, I am officially an author.\nMy book, Max Hamby And The Blood Diamond is available on Amazon.com and Smashwords.\nI am working on listing it with other retailers.\nBook 2: Max Hamby And The Emerald Hunt will be out in 2015. Stop by anytime for updates!\nJumping In..\nI've got very exciting news to share with you.\nI've given it alot of thought and have spend alot of time doing the research and have decided to go ahead and take control of the book by myself.\nWhich means, it will be available very soon. I'm working on the formatting right now and making sure it comes together for each ebook format.\nSo, I will leave you with a snippet of what is to come....\nTwelve year old Max Hamby, a shy loner whose fierce need to find his missing mother is threatened by a powerful stone and the man intent on releasing the evil imprisoned inside.\nA school field trip and visit to the principal\u2019s office lead to the police showing up and Max\u2019s day takes a turn for the worse. His mother is missing. The police have no leads, but his neighbors do.\nWhen he\u2019s left in the care of his eccentric neighbor, Mrs. Pitt, Max learns that magic is real and not at all like the fairytales his mother used to read to him.\nSomeone has resurrected the Shadow Stone and is using his mother as bait to gain the Blood Diamond. The secrets his mother\u2019s been keeping are piling up and turning deadly. His only hope in saving her is with the help of a handful of witches, a dwarf, a troll and a couple of quirky aunts he never knew existed.\nThe cold weather has begun here in the northeast. I don't think I was ready for it, but it's nothing unusual. We really didn't have much of a spring and summer was cooler than previous years.\nSo, on to some updates.....\nI sent out my manuscript to an agency I thought would be a great fit.\nTheir response time is six weeks and I've got about a month to go. After going through there site and seeing the other authors they represent, I'm not so sure I'll hear back from them. They represent some authors who I love and in going through my novel a million and one times, well, I'm not so sure it's up to their standards.\nI felt 100% confident writing my novel, but now that it's finished, self doubt is setting in and I keep going over and over everything in my head.\nI've been researching self publishing as a backup and LOL!, the more I think about putting myself and my work out there the more nervous I get. You know how it goes, right? What if people don't like it. What if it gets bad reviews. What if no one buys the book. Etc., etc.\nPlus, being an introvert doesn't help. I've never been good at marketing, sales and promotion.\nTo be honest, I would love to receive that email or call of acceptance from the agency.\nBut, like I said, I'm pretty sure my novel isn't up to their standards.\nOn to computer problems.\nI thought my entire laptop was dead, but turns out it's the hard drive. Thank goodness for that.\nIt'll be some time before I can replace it, but at least it's not the whole computer.\nAnd lastly, as you can see, I'm updating the site. I love the purple. It's my all time fave color, but the site needs a more professional look and feel. (Hopefully, it'll turn out that way when I'm done.)\nI designed a cover for my novel for the heck of it and that's the background I'm using on the site now.\nI've also updated all social media sites: FB, Twitter, Google+, etc. with the same design. Going for a consistent look. ;) Not thrilled with the photo of myself, but it's the best one I've got and not that old.\nReally don't like having pics taken. They never turn out well. lol.\nI think that's it for now. Stop on by FB, Twitter, etc. any time. You can find the links throughout the site.\nHave a great weekend, my friends.",

        "title": "June 2017 \u2013 What We Learned About the U.S. Economy Last Week",
        "raw_content": "Consumer Spending Pauses, Expectations Ease: June 26 \u2013 30.\nGrowth in consumer spending moderated during May as had consumer sentiment in June. Here are the 5 things we learned from U.S. economic data released during the week ending June 30.\nPersonal spending grew at a sluggish pace during May. The Bureau of Economic Analysis estimates real consumer personal expenditures (PCE) grew 0.1 percent during the month following two back-to-back months of 0.4 percent gains. Real spending swelled for both nondurable goods (+0.2 percent) and services (+0.1 percent) but slipped for durable goods (-0.1 percent). Real PCE has increased 2.7 percent over the past year, including a strong +7.0 percent year-to-year gain in durable goods spending. Removing the adjustments for price variability, nominal consumer spending also increased 0.1 percent during the month to $13.214 trillion on a seasonally adjusted annualized basis. Growing at a faster rate were personal income (+0.4 percent), nominal disposable income (+0.5 percent), and real disposable income (+0.6 percent). The latter was the largest single-month gain in real disposable income since April 2015. As a result, the savings rate rose to its highest mark since last September with a 4/10ths of a percentage point increase to +5.5 percent. Finally, the PCE deflator, a closely watched measure of inflation, has grown +1.4 percent over the past year, as did the core PCE deflator (which removes both energy and food from the analysis). Both remained below the Federal Reserve\u2019s 2.0 percent inflation target.\nOne possible reason: Consumers appear a bit less confident about the future. The Conference Board\u2019s Consumer Confidence Index added 1.3 points during June to a seasonally adjusted 118.9 (1985=100), marked by Americans feeling better about current business conditions but less so about conditions in the coming months. The present conditions index surged 5.7 points to 146.3 (approaching the measure\u2019s best reading since 2001) while the expectations index shed 1.7 points to 100.6. 30.8 percent of surveyed consumers felt current business conditions were \u201cgood,\u201d compared to 12.7 percent who saw them as being \u201cpoor.\u201d Survey respondents also were more positive about labor market conditions as 32.8 percent of consumers said jobs were \u201cplentiful\u201d while only 18.0 percent felt that they were \u201chard to get.\u201d The press release noted that \u201c[c]onsumers anticipate the economy will continue expanding in the months ahead, but they do not foresee the pace of growth accelerating.\u201d\nOn the other hand, the University of Michigan\u2019s Index of Consumer Sentiment lost two full points during June to drop to a seasonally adjusted 95.1 (1966Q1=100). This was the measure\u2019s lowest reading since last fall\u2019s election and was the resulting a deteriorating outlook for the future. The expectations index fell by 3.8 points to 83.9 while the current conditions index edged up by 8/10ths of a point to 112.5. As has been the trend with this survey since last November, Republicans were far more positive about current and future business conditions than were Democrats. The press release indicates that the index readings suggest personal spending will grow by 2.3 percent during 2017.\nEven with another upward revision, Q1 GDP growth was soft. The Bureau of Economic Analysis now estimates Gross Domestic Product grew at a seasonally adjusted annualized rate (SAAR) of +1.4 percent, an improvement from the 1.2 percent gain reported a month earlier and the initial estimate of a 0.7 percent advance. Q1 economic growth was slower than the 2.1 percent and 3.5 percent during the two previous quarters. The most recent upward revision was the product of higher than previously believed levels of personal consumption expenditures (PCE) and exports. The biggest contributors to Q1 GDP growth were nonresidential fixed investment (+123 basis point contribution to GDP growth), exports (+82-basis points), personal consumption expenditures (+75-basis points), and residential fixed investment (+48-basis points). Notable is that the contribution from consumption was down sharply from the previous quarter when PCE added 240-basis points of GDP growth. Also holding back Q1 GDP growth were the negative contributions from private inventory accumulation (-111-basis points), imports (-59-basis points), and government expenditures (-16-basis points). Corporate profits from current production slumped 2.3 percent during Q1 to $2.102 trillion (SAAR). Even with the decline, corporate profits were up 3.3 percent from a year earlier.\nEconomic growth has appeared to have downshifted during May. The Chicago Fed National Activity Index (CFNAI), a weighted average of 85 economic indicators, plummeted by 83-basis points during the month to a seasonally adjusted -0.26. Only 32 of the 85 economic indicators made a positive contribution to the CFNAI. Among the four major categories of indicators, production-related indicators deteriorated by far the most, with its contribution to the headline index falling from +0.53 to -0.16. Also softening from their April contributions were indicators related to employment (down 14-basis points to -0.02) and consumption/housing (off two-basis points to -0.09). The contribution from sales/orders/inventories indicators improved by 3-basis points to +0.02. The three-month moving average for the CFNAI, which smooths some of the month-to-month variability and therefore may be a better indicator of business trends, fell by 17-basis points to +0.04. Nevertheless, the reading above 0.00 suggests that slightly above average economic growth over the past three months (even if the pace of expansion slowed sharply during May).\nDurable goods orders fell for second consecutive month in May. Per the Census Bureau, new orders for durable goods dropped 1.1 percent to a seasonally adjusted $228.2 billion. This followed a 0.9 percent decline in April. Pulling down the headline measure were large declines in orders for civilian and defense aircraft (-11.7 percent and -30.8 percent, respectively). This resulted in a 3.4 percent decrease in overall transportation goods, even as new orders for vehicles gained 1.2 percent during May. Net of transportation goods, durable goods orders edged up 0.1 percent, its third increase in four months. Orders increased for electrical equipment/appliances (+1.0 percent), machinery (+0.6 percent), and primary metals (+0.3 percent), but fell for computers (-3.2 percent), communications equipment (-3.1 percent), and fabricated metal products (-0.2 percent). A proxy for business investment\u2014civilian capital goods orders net of aircraft\u2014cooled 0.2 percent during May. Durable goods shipments improved for the first time in three months (+0.8 percent). Unfilled orders shrank 0.2 percent while inventories expanded 0.2 percent.\n\u2013 Jobless Claims (week ending June 24, 2017, First-Time Claims, seasonally adjusted): 244,000 +2,000 vs. previous week; -23,000 vs. the same week a year earlier). 4-week moving average: 242,250 (-9.2% vs. the same week a year earlier).\n\u2013 Pending Home Sales (May 2017, Index (2001=100), seasonally adjusted): 108.5 (vs. April 2017: 109.4, vs. May 2017: 110.4)\n\u2013 Case-Shiller Home Price Index (April 2017, 20-City Home Price Index, seasonally adjusted): +0.3% vs. March 2017, +5.7% vs. April 2016).\n\u2013 Agricultural Prices (May 2017, Prices Received by Farmers, seasonally adjusted): +2.1% vs. April 2017, +4.8% vs. May 2016).\nEconomics, Macroeconomics, This week's economic data Consumer Sentiment, Economic Activity, GDP, Manufacturing Leave a comment\nHome Sales Remain Firm, Moderate Economic Growth on Target for 2017: June 19 \u2013 23\nHome sales improved during May while forward-looking economic indicators suggest moderate economic growth during the rest of this year. Here are the 5 things we learned from U.S. economic data released during the week ending June 23.\nExisting home sales crept up during May. The National Association of Realtors reports that sales of previously owned homes grew 1.1 percent during the month to a seasonally adjusted annualized rate (SAAR) of 5.62 million homes. This was 2.7 percent above the year ago annualized sales pace and just below its post-recession sales peak. Sales grew in three of four Census regions during May: Northeast (+6.8 percent), West (+3.4 percent), and South (+2.2 percent). Sales fell 5.9 percent in the Midwest. The 12-month comparables followed the same pattern, with sales growing in the Northeast, South, and West, but falling in the Midwest. There remained a dearth of homes on the market. A mere 4.2 month supply of homes were available for sale at the end of May, with the 1.96 million homes on the market representing 8.4 percent decline from a year earlier. As a result, the median sales price of existing home sales jumped 5.8 percent from a year earlier to $252,800. The press release noted that \u201c[t]he job market in most of the country is healthy and the recent downward trend in mortgage rates continues to keep buyer interest at a robust level.\u201d\nNew home sales also bounced up during May. The Census Bureau estimates the seasonally adjusted annualized sales rate for new homes was at 610,000 units, up 2.9 percent for the month and 8.9 percent from a year earlier. Sales surged in both the West and South by 13.3 percent and 6.2 percent, respectively, but cooled in both the Midwest (-25.7 percent) and Northeast (-10.8 percent). Homebuilders had 268,000 new homes available for sale at the end of May, up 1.5 percent from the previous month and 11.2 percent from a year earlier. This translated into a still tight 5.3 month supply of new homes. The median sales price for new homes jumped 16.8 percent over the past year, although some of the \u201cincrease\u201d reflects larger (and therefore more expensive) homes sold.\nLeading economic indicators point to 2017 economic growth of two percent or more. The Conference Board\u2019s Leading Economic Index grew 0.3 percent during May to a seasonally adjusted reading of 127.0 (2010 = 100). This was up 3.5 percent from a year earlier. Eight of the leading index\u2019s components made positive contributions to the measure during May, led by the interest rate spread, new orders for manufactured goods, and consumers\u2019 expectations for business conditions. The coincident economic index edged up 1/10th of a point to 115.3 (+2.2 percent vs. May 2016) as three of four index components making positive contributions (personal income net of transfer payments, nonfarm payrolls, and manufacturing/trade sales). The lagging economic index also added 1/10th of a point to 124.2 (+2.1 percent vs. May 2016) with only three of seven index components making a positive contribution during the month. The press release noted that the leading indicators suggest \u201cthe economy is likely to remain on, or perhaps even moderately above, its long-term trend of about 2 percent growth for the remainder of the year.\u201d\nLayoff activity remained light during mid-June. Per the Department of Labor, there were a seasonally adjusted 241,000 first-time claims made for unemployment insurance benefits during the week ending June 17, up 3,000 for the week but 21,000 below the number of claims from the same week a year earlier. The jobless claims count has been below 300,000 for 120 consecutive weeks, a feat not seen since 1970(!). The four-week moving average of first-time claims of 244,750 was 8.3 percent below that of a year earlier. 1.817 million people were receiving some form of unemployment insurance benefits during the week ending June 3, 10.2 percent below the count of a year ago.\nAmericans\u2019 household debt service remained relatively low in early 2017. The Federal Reserve indicates that financial obligations represent 15.47 percent of households\u2019 disposable personal income during the first quarter of 2017. The financial obligations ratio was down one basis point from the previous quarter but up a basis point from a year earlier. This ratio has been consistently below 16 percent since 2011 (contrasting with ten years ago when the percentage was consistently nearly 18 percent) and has stayed near 30-year lows. The debt service ratio held steady at 10.04 during Q1 and was up two basis points from a year earlier. By comparison, this measure was above 13 percent ten years ago. Nondebt financial obligations (e.g., rent, leases) represented 5.43 percent of disposable income, down 1-basis point from the previous quarter but keeping the measure near its highest levels in 30 years.\nEconomics, Macroeconomics, This week's economic data Consumer Debt, Home Sales, Housing, Leading Indicators Leave a comment",

The AICD study was founded on the recognition that sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) suffers from a very weak infrastructural base, and that this is a key factor in the SSA region failing to realize its full potential for economic growth, international trade, and poverty reduction. The study broke new ground, with primary data collection efforts covering network service infrastructures (ICT, power, water & sanitation, road transport, rail transport, sea transport, and air transport) from 2001 to 2006 in 24 selected African countries. Between them, these countries account for 85 percent of the sub-Saharan Africa population, GDP, and infrastructure inflows. The countries included in the initial study were: Benin, Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Cape Verde, Chad, C\u00f4te d\u2019Ivoire, Democratic Republic of Congo, Ethiopia, Ghana, Kenya, Lesotho, Madagascar, Malawi, Mozambique, Namibia, Niger, Nigeria, Rwanda, South Africa, Senegal, Sudan, Tanzania, Uganda, and Zambia.\nThe study also represents an unprecedented effort to collect detailed economic and technical data on African infrastructure in relation to the fiscal costs of each of the sectors, future sector investment needs, and sector performance indicators. As a result, it has been possible for the first time to portray the magnitude of the continent\u2019s infrastructure challenges and to provide detailed and substantiated estimates on spending needs, funding gaps, and the potential efficiency dividends to be derived from policy reforms.\nHistorical versions of this dataset since 05 January 2015 are available.",

This indicator is disaggregated by: Country - country of residence of the inventor(s), integral counted; in cases when inventors from more than two countries collaborate, this is translated into distinct bilateral relationships between country pairs. For example, if inventors from 3 countries collaborate (e.g. USA, DEU, JPN) then a unit count is assigned to 6 country pairs (USA-DEU, USA-JPN, DEU-JPN, DEU-USA, JPN-USA, JPN-DEU); in this case a country generally coordinate the project and the others are partners.

We have chosen 13 different indicators for the four key domains of Income security, Health status, Capability, and Enabling environment. Domain 1: Income security The income security domain assesses people's access to a sufficient amount of income, and the capacity to use it independently, in order to meet basic needs in older age. Domain 2: Health status The three indicators used for the health domain provide information about physical and psychological wellbeing. Domain 3: Capability The employment and education indicators in this domain look at different aspects of the empowerment of older people. Domain 4: Enabling environment This domain uses data from Gallup World View to assess older people's perception of social connectedness, safety, civic freedom and access to public transport - issues older people have singled out as particularly important.\nThis database contains statistics on production volume and value by species, country or area, fishing area and culture environment\nGlobal Bilateral Migration Database\nData cited at: The World Bank https://datacatalog.worldbank.org/ Topic: Global Bilateral Migration Database Publication: https://datacatalog.worldbank.org/dataset/global-bilateral-migration-database License: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Global Bilateral Migration Database: Global matrices of bilateral migrant stocks spanning the period 1960-2000, disaggregated by gender and based primarily on the foreign-born concept are presented. Over one thousand census and population register records are combined to construct decennial matrices corresponding to the last five completed census rounds. For the first time, a comprehensive picture of bilateral global migration over the last half of the twentieth century emerges. The data reveal that the global migrant stock increased from 92 to 165 million between 1960 and 2000. South-North migration is the fastest growing component of international migration in both absolute and relative terms. The United States remains the most important migrant destination in the world, home to one fifth of the world\u2019s migrants and the top destination for migrants from no less than sixty sending countries. Migration to Western Europe remains largely from elsewhere in Europe. The oil-rich Persian Gulf countries emerge as important destinations for migrants from the Middle East, North Africa and South and South-East Asia. Finally, although the global migrant stock is still predominantly male, the proportion of women increased noticeably between 1960 and 2000.\nGlobal Business Bribery Risk Index, 2014-2018\nSource: TRACE International\n'The TRACE Matrix measures business bribery risk in all countries. Developed in collaboration with RAND Corporation, the TRACE Matrix provides the business community with a powerful new tool for anti-bribery risk assessment. It assesses countries across four domains \u2013 Business Interactions with Government, Anti-bribery Laws and Enforcement, Government and Civil Service Transparency, and the Capacity for Civil Society Oversight, including the role of the media \u2013 as well as nine sub-domains. Business interactions with government includes the sub-domains of \u201ccontact with government,\u201d \u201cexpectation of paying bribes\u201d and \u201cregulatory burden.\u201d These indicators capture aspects of the \u201ctouches with government\u201d that TRACE identified as very important for business bribery through regulatory and business interviews they conducted. Anti-corruption laws enacted by a country and information about enforcement of those laws. Government and civil service transparency, which includes indicators concerning whether government budgets are publicly available and whether there are regulations addressing conflicts of interest for civil servants. Information concerning the extent of press freedom and social development, both of which serve as indicators of a robust civil society that can provide government oversight. The overall country risk score is a combined and weighted score of four domains. For each of these four \"domains\" (and related sub-domains), the TRACE Matrix aggregates relevant data obtained from leading public interest and international organizations, including the United Nations, the World Bank and the World Economic Forum. Based on statistical analysis of this information, each country is assigned not only an overall score between 1 and 100\u2014with 100 representing the greatest risk\u2014but also scores for each of the four domains and nine sub-domains.'\nGlobal Capture Production\nContains the volume of fish catches landed by country or territory of capture, by species or a higher taxonomic level, by FAO major fishing areas, and year for all commercial, industrial, recreational and subsistence purpose\nThis database contains statistics on the annual production of fishery commodities and imports and exports of fishery commodities by country and commodities in terms of volume and value from 1976.\nThe Global Cybersecurity Index (GCI) is a survey that measures the commitment of Member States to cybersecurity in order to raise awareness. The GCI revolves around the ITU Global Cybersecurity Agenda (GCA) and its five pillars (legal, technical, organizational, capacity building and cooperation). For each of these pillars, questions were developed to assess commitment. Through consultation with a group of experts, these questions were weighted in order to arrive at an overall GCI score. The survey was administered through an online platform through which supporting evidence was also collected. One-hundred and thirty-four Member States responded to the survey throughout 2016. Member States who did not respond were invited to validate responses determined from open-source research. As such, the GCI results reported herein cover all 193 ITU Member States. The 2017 publication of the GCI continues to show the commitment to cybersecurity of countries around the world. The overall picture shows improvement and strengthening of all five elements of the cybersecurity agenda in various countries in all regions. However, there is space for further improvement in cooperation at all levels, capacity building and organizational measures. As well, the gap in the level of cybersecurity engagement between different regions is still present and visible. The level of development of the different pillars varies from country to country in the regions, and while commitment in Europe remains very high in the legal and technical fields in particular, the challenging situation in the Africa and Americas regions shows the need for continued engagement and support. In addition to providing the GCI score, this report also provides a set of illustrative practices that give insight into the achievements of certain countries.\nGlobal Development Assistance for Health, Government, Prepaid Private, and Out-of-Pocket Health Spending\nResearch by the Global Burden of Disease Health Financing Collaborator Network produced retrospective national health spending estimates for 1995-2016 for 184 countries. The estimates cover total health spending, and health spending disaggregated by source into government spending, out-of-pocket, prepaid private, and development assistance for health. National health spending by source, including development assistance for health, was estimated based on a diverse set of data, including program reports, budget data, national estimates, and 964 National Health Accounts. The resulting estimates were used to help produce forecasted health spending estimates for 2015-2040. Results of the study were published in The Lancet in April 2017 in \"Evolution and patterns of global health financing 1995\u20132016: development assistance for health, and government, prepaid private, and out-of-pocket health spending in 184 countries.\"\nGlobal Environment Statistics\nEnvironmental Indicators disseminate global environment statistics on ten indicator themes compiled from a wide range of data sources. The themes and indicator tables were selected based on the current demands for international environmental statistics and the availability of internationally comparable data. Indicator tables, charts and maps with relatively good quality and coverage across countries, as well as links to other international sources, are provided under each theme. Statistics on Water and Waste are based on official statistics supplied by national statistical offices and/or ministries of environment (or equivalent institutions) in response to the biennial UNSD/UNEP Questionnaire on Environment Statistics, complemented with comparable statistics from OECD and Eurostat, and water resources data from FAO Aqua stat. Statistics on other themes were compiled by UNSD from other international sources. In a few cases, UNSD has made some calculations in order to derive the indicators. However, generally no adjustments have been made to the values received from the source. UNSD is not responsible for the quality, completeness/availability, and validity of the data. Environment statistics is still in an early stage of development in many countries, and data are often sparse. The indicators selected here are those of relatively good quality and geographic coverage. Information on data quality and comparability is given at the end of each table together with other important metadata.\nGlobal Expected Health Spending 2016-2040\nResearch by the Global Burden of Disease Health Financing Collaborator Network produced projected health spending estimates for 2016-2040 for 188 countries. The estimates cover total health spending, and health spending disaggregated by source into government spending, out-of-pocket, prepaid private, and development assistance for health. GDP and all-sector government spending were extracted for 1980\u20132015 and used with retrospective health spending estimates for 1995-2015 to forecast GDP, all-sector government spending, and health spending through 2040. Results of the study were published in The Lancet in April 2018 in \"Trends in future health financing and coverage: future health spending and universal health coverage in 188 countries, 2016\u20132040.\"\nGlobal Financial Development\nData cited at: The World Bank https://datacatalog.worldbank.org/ Topic: Global Financial Development Publication: https://datacatalog.worldbank.org/dataset/global-financial-development License: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ The Global Financial Development Database is an extensive dataset of financial system characteristics for 206 economies. The database includes measures of (1) size of financial institutions and markets (financial depth), (2) degree to which individuals can and do use financial services (access), (3) efficiency of financial intermediaries and markets in intermediating resources and facilitating financial transactions (efficiency), and (4) stability of financial institutions and markets (stability).For a complete description of the dataset and a discussion of the underlying literature, see: Martin Cihak; Asli Demirguc-Kunt; Erik Feyen; and Ross Levine, 2012. \"Benchmarking Financial Systems Around the World.\" World Bank Policy Research Working Paper 6175, World Bank, Washington, D.C.\nGlobal Fishery Production Statistics\nContains global production statistics (capture and aquaculture).

It examines the current status and recent trends for about 90 variables covering the extent, condition, uses and values of forests and other wooded land, with the aim of assessing all benefits from forest resources. Information has been collated from 233 countries and territories for four points in time: 1990, 2000, 2005 and 2010. The results are presented according to the seven thematic elements of sustainable forest management. FAO worked closely with countries and specialists in the design and implementation of FRA 2010 - through regular contact, expert consultations, training for national correspondents and ten regional and subregional workshops. More than 900 contributors were involved, including 178 officially nominated national correspondents and their teams. The outcome is better data, a transparent reporting process and enhanced national capacity in developing countries for data analysis and reporting. The final report of FRA 2010 was published at the start of the latest biennial meeting of the FAO' Committee on Forestry and World Forest Week, in Rome.\nSource: Emission Database for Global Atmospheric Research\nGlobal Greenhouse Gas Emissions from 1970 to 2012\nEmissions are calculated for the following substances: 1) Direct greenhouse gases: Carbon Dioxide (CO2), Methane (CH4), Nitrous Oxide (N2O), Hydrofluorocarbons (HFC-23, 32, 125, 134a, 143a, 152a, 227ea, 236fa, 245fa, 365mfc, 43-10-mee), Perfluorocarbons (PFCs: CF4, C2F6, C3F8, c-C4F8, C4F10, C5F12, C6F14, C7F16), Sulfur Hexafluoride (SF6), Nitrogen Trifluoride (NF3) and Sulfuryl Fluoride (SO2F2); 2) Ozone precursor gases: Carbon Monoxide (CO), Nitrogen Oxides (NOx), Non-Methane Volatile Organic Compounds (NMVOC) and Methane (CH4). 3) Acidifying gases: Ammonia (NH3), Nitrogen oxides (NOx) and Sulfur Dioxide (SO2). 4) Primary particulates: Fine Particulate Matter (PM10) - Carbonaceous speciation (BC , OC) is under progress. 5) Stratospheric Ozone Depleting Substances: Chlorofluorocarbons (CFC-11, 12, 113, 114, 115), Halons (1211, 1301, 2402), Hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFC-22, 124, 141b, 142b), Carbon Tetrachloride (CCl4), Methyl Bromide (CH3Br) and Methyl Chloroform (CH3CCl2). Emissions (EM) for a country C are calculated for each compound x on an annual basis (y) and sector wise (for i sectors, multiplying on the one hand the country-specific activity data (AD), quantifying the human activity for each of the i sectors, with the mix of j technologies (TECH) for each sector i, and with their abatement percentage by one of the k end-of-pipe (EOP) measures for each technology j, and on the other hand the country-specific emission factor (EF) for each sector i and technology j with relative reduction (RED) of the uncontrolled emission by installed abatement measure k. Emissions in are calculated by individual countries using country-specific information. The countries are organized in different world regions for illustration purposes. Emissions of some small countries are presented together with other countries depending on country definition and availability of activity statistics.\nThe GHO data provides access to indicators on priority health topics including mortality and burden of diseases, the Millennium Development Goals (child nutrition, child health, maternal and reproductive health, immunization, HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis, malaria, neglected diseases, water and sanitation), non communicable diseases and risk factors, epidemic-prone diseases, health systems, environmental health, violence and injuries, equity among others\nGlobal Hunger Index, 2018\nSource: International Food Policy Research Institute\nGlobal Hunger Index, 2018 The Global Hunger Index (GHI) is a tool designed to comprehensively measure and track hunger globally, regionally, and by country. Each year, the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) calculates GHI scores in order to assess progress, or the lack thereof, in decreasing hunger. The GHI is designed to raise awareness and understanding of regional and country differences in the struggle against hunger. Since 2015, GHI scores have been calculated using a revised and improved formula. The revision replaces child underweight, previously the sole indicator of child under-nutrition, with two indicators of child under-nutrition\u2014child wasting and child stunting\u2014which are equally weighted in the GHI calculation. The revised formula also standardizes each of the component indicators to balance their contribution to the overall index and to changes in the GHI scores over time. GHI scores are calculated using a three-step process that draws on available data from various sources to capture the multidimensional nature of hunger: 1. Undernourishment: The share of the population that is undernourished (that is, whose caloric intake is insufficient). 2. Child wasting and stunting: The share of children under the age of five who are wasted (that is, who have low weight for their height, reflecting acute under-nutrition). 3.Child Stunting: The share of children under the age of five who are stunted (that is, who have low height for their age, reflecting chronic under-nutrition). 4. Child Mortality: The mortality rate of children under the age of five (in part, a reflection of the fatal mix of inadequate nutrition and unhealthy environments). Note: Values for the years are taken as per below table.1Global Hunger Index Scores2Proportion of Undernourished in the Population (%)3Prevalence of Wasting in Children Under Five Years(%)4Prevalence of Stunting in Children Under Five Years (%)5Prevalence of underweight in children under five years (%) Date for above indicators are taken as per below year ranges. 1 2 3 4 5 Date Range Date Range Date Range Date Range Date Range 2018 2013-2017 2018 2015-2017 2018 2013-2017 2018 2013-2017 2012 2009-2013 2017 2012-2016 2017 2014-2016 2017 2012-2016 2017 2012-2016 2011 2008-2012 2015 2010-2016 2015 2014-2016 2015 2012-2016 2015 2012-2016 2010 2005-2010 2014 2009-2013 2013 2014-2016 2013 2010-2014 2013 2010-2014 2009 2004-2009 2013 2008-2012 2012 2011-2013 2010 2008-2012 2010 2008-2012 2008 2003-2008 2012 2005-2010 2011 2010-2012 2008 2006-2010 2008 2006-2010 2007 2002-2007 2011 2004-2009 2010 2009-2011 2005 2003-2007 2005 2003-2007 2006 2001-2006 2010 2008-2012 2009 2005-2007 2000 1998-2002 2000 1998-2002 2005 2003-2007 2009 2002-2007 2008 2007-2009 1995 1993-1997 1995 1993-1997 2004 2000-2005 2008 2006-2010 2007 2003-2005 1992 1990-1994 1992 1990-1994 2003 1999-2003 2005 2003-2007 2006 2002-2004 1990 1988-1992 1990 1988-1992 2000 1998-2002 2001 1994-1998 2005 2004-2006 1997 1993-1998 2000 1998-2002 2004 2001-2003 1995 1993-1997 1996 1988-1992 2003 2000-2002 1990 1988-1992 1995 1993-1997 2000 1999-2001 1980 1977-1982 1992 1990-1994 1997 1995-1997 1990 1988-1992 1995 1994-1996 1992 1991-1993 1990 1990-1992 1980 1979-1981 6. \"Under-five Mortality Rate(%)\" year range has not been specified in source.

The measures in this toolkit are based on an updated version of the UN\u2013NBER dataset, which harmonizes COMTRADE bilateral trade flow data at the 4-digit SITC (Rev. 1) level. The export diversification and quality database was developed by IMF staff under an IMF-DFID research collaboration. The Export Diversification Database has three main indicators: the Export Diversification Index, the Extensive Margin, and the Intensive Margin. Higher values for the all three indices indicate lower diversification. The Export Quality Database contains export quality measures across different aggregation levels of export products. Higher values for the quality indices indicate higher quality levels.\nImmigrants by Detailed Occupation\nThe sources for this database are mainly census data, from the 2000 round of censuses. Census data were used for 22 countries. Countries not taking periodic censuses but keeping population registers have provided data extracted from these registers; this is the case for four countries: Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden. For some countries, not all themes covered in the database are present in the national census or register. Labour force surveys, provided by Eurostat and averaged over the period 1998-2002, have been used to fill the gaps where possible.\nImmigrants by duration of stay, 2000\nImmigrants by field of study, 2000\nThis database contains information on several demographic and labour market characteristics of the population of 28 OECD countries around the year 2000, by country of birth.

Most of the thematic files of the database include three core variables: the country of residence, the country of birth and educational attainment. Other variables available in the database include age, gender, citizenship, duration of stay, labour force status, occupation, sector of activity and field of study. In general, the database covers all individuals aged 15 and older with a tertiary education.\nImmigrants by Occupation\nImmigrants by sector\nThe sources for this database are mainly census data, from the 2000 round of censuses.

The exact national source and reference period for each file is given in Table A.1 (see the methodological document).\nImmigration Statistics of Honduras, 2013\nSource: National Institute of Statistics, Honduras\nImports of intermediate goods and services, estimates based on I/O tables\nThe allocation of bilateral intermediate imports across using industries assumes that import coefficients are the same for all trade partners, i.e. SHAREipkt is identical across exporter countries. Hence, the bilateral pattern of imported intermediates from industry p is the same across all using industries k. However, it is different from the bilateral pattern of total imports from industry p because trade data (measured by VALUEijpt) allows distinguishing bilateral imports of intermediates from final good imports in industry p. While the BEC classification enables the identification of intermediate goods, no similar classification is available for trade in services, due to the high level of aggregation in services trade data. While goods trade data are based on customs declarations allowing the identification of goods at a highly disaggregated level, services trade data are based on a variety of information such as business accounts, administrative sources, surveys, and estimation techniques (Manual on Statistics of International Trade in Services, 2002). Hence, in the case of trade in services, VALUEijpt is the total value of imports of service p, i.e. both final and intermediate (and not only services that are used in the production of other goods and services, as in the case of goods data). By making an additional assumption and adjusting SHAREipkt, it is however possible to calculate trade in intermediate services. In the case of services imports, SHAREipkt is the share of imported service inputs p used by industry k in total imports of p of country i. In the case of services, besides the assumption that all trading partners have the same distribution of intermediate imports p across using industries k, it is furthermore required that the share of intermediate services in overall bilateral services imports of country i is the same across all partner countries j. Finally, it should be mentioned that trade data reported in the trade statistics do not fully match imports as reported in I-O tables. One main reason is that while trade data is recorded at consumer prices, I-O tables are evaluated at producer prices. There are also other differences such as the treatment of re-exports, scrap metal, waste products and second hand goods or unallocated trade data.\nImports of Products by zone and country of origin, Guinea\nSource: National Institute of Statistics, Republic of Guinea\nData cited at: https://guinea.opendataforafrica.org/kruwzwd Imports of products by zone and country of origin, 2011 - 2012\nInactivity rate by sex and age -- ILO modelled estimates, July 2017 (%)\nThe series is part of the ILO estimates and is harmonized to account for differences in national data and scope of coverage, collection and tabulation methodologies as well as for other country-specific factors.

Therefore, the sum of counts of U.S. origin independent inventor patents usually will not equal the sum of counts of patents owned by \"U.S. individuals\" and the sum of counts of \"foreign origin\" independent inventor patents usually will not equal the sum of counts of patents owned by foreign individuals.\nIndependent Monitoring of policies that affect world commerce: Steel and Aluminium Related\nSource: Global Trade Alert\nThe Global Trade Alert (GTA) was launched in June 2009 when it was feared that the global financial crisis would lead governments to adopt widespread 1930s-style beggar-thy-neighbour policies. Although global in scope, the GTA has given particular attention to the policy choices of the G-20 governments ever since their leaders made a \u201cno protectionism\u201d pledge in Washington DC in November 2008. Although initially conceived as a trade policy monitoring initiative, as thousands of policy announcements have been documented, the GTA has become a widely-used input for analysis and decision-making by firms, industry associations, journalists, researchers, international organisations, and governments. This reflects the fact that, as the International Monetary Fund noted in 2016, the GTA \u201chas the most comprehensive coverage of all types of trade-discriminatory and trade liberalizing measures.\u201d\nData cited at: Heritage Foundation Economic freedom is the fundamental right of every human to control his or her own labor and property. In an economically free society, individuals are free to work, produce, consume, and invest in any way they please, with that freedom both protected by the state and unconstrained by the state. In economically free societies, governments allow labor, capital and goods to move freely, and refrain from coercion or constraint of liberty beyond the extent necessary to protect and maintain liberty itself.

A person's country of usual residence is the country in which the person has a place to live where he or she normally spends the daily period of rest. Temporary travel abroad for purposes of recreation, holiday, business, medical treatment or religious pilgrimage does not entail a change in the country of usual residence. Data are disaggregated by sex and country of origin. A person's country of origin is that from which the person originates, i.e. the country of his or her citizenship (or, in the case of stateless persons, the country of usual residence).\nInputs - Fertilizers archive\nThe Fertilizer archive dataset contains information on the Production, Trade and Consumption of chemical and mineral fertilizers products, both in total nutrients and in amount of product, over the time series 1961 to 2002. The dataset also contains data on Prices paid by farmers expressed in local currencies (as a consequence no country aggregates are available) for single fertilizer products. This dataset is an archive and it is disseminated as it was in the previous FAOSTAT System. No dataset updates made or to be made in the future.\nInternational Agricultural Productivity, 1961-2015\nImproving agricultural productivity has been the world's primary means of assuring that the needs of a growing population don't outstrip the ability of humanity to supply food. Over the past 50 years, productivity growth in agriculture has allowed food to become more abundant and cheaper (see Growth in Global Agricultural Productivity: An Update, Amber Waves, November 2013, and New Evidence Points to Robust But Uneven Productivity Growth in Global Agriculture, Amber Waves, September 2012). A broad concept of agricultural productivity is total factor productivity (TFP). TFP takes into account all of the land, labor, capital, and material resources employed in farm production and compares them with the total amount of crop and livestock output. If total output is growing faster than total inputs, we call this an improvement in total factor productivity (\"factor\" = input). TFP differs from measures like crop yield per acre or agricultural value-added per worker because it takes into account a broader set of inputs used in production. TFP encompasses the average productivity of all of these inputs employed in the production of all crop and livestock commodities. \"Growth accounting\" provides a practicable way of measuring changes in agricultural TFP across a broad set of countries and regions, and for the world as a whole, given limited international data on production outputs, inputs, and their economic values. The approach (described in detail in Documentation and Methods) gives agricultural TFP growth rates, but not TFP levels, across the countries and regions of the world in a consistent, comparable way. Most of the data for the analysis comes from FAOSTAT. In some cases Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) input and output data are supplemented with data from national statistical sources. Note: To facilitate international comparisons, certain simplifying assumptions must be made, and as such the estimates of TFP growth reported here may not be exactly the same as TFP growth estimates reported in other studies using different assumptions or methods. In particular, our TFP estimates for the United States differ slightly from those reported in ERS' Agricultural Productivity in the U.S. data product.\nInternational Energy Data, Monthly Update\nThis dataset is the basis for the International Food Security Assessment, 2017-27 released in July 2017. This annual ERS report projects food availability and access for 76 low- and middle-income countries over a 10-year period. The dataset includes annual country-level data on area, yield, production, nonfood use, trade, and consumption for grains and root and tuber crops (combined as R&T in the documentation tables), food aid, total value of imports and exports, gross domestic product, and population compiled from a variety of sources.\nInternational migrant stock at mid-year by sex and by major area, region, country or area, 1990-2017\nThe estimates are based on official statistics on the foreign-born or the foreign population, classified by sex, and age. Most of the statistics utilised to estimate the international migrant stock were obtained from population censuses. Additionally, population registers and nationally representative surveys provided information on the number and composition of international migrants.\nInternational Migrant stock by age and sex\nInternational Migration Database\nMost of the data published in this database are taken from the individual contributions of national correspondents appointed by the OECD Secretariat with the approval of the authorities of Member countries. Consequently, these data have not necessarily been harmonised at international level. This network of correspondents, constituting the Continuous Reporting System on Migration (SOPEMI), covers most OECD Member countries as well as the Baltic States, Bulgaria and Romania. SOPEMI has no authority to impose changes in data collection procedures. It is an observatory which, by its very nature, has to use existing statistics. However, it does play an active role in suggesting what it considers to be essential improvements in data collection and makes every effort to present consistent and well-documented statistics.\nInternational Telecommunication Traffic\nInternational trade; Imports and exports of services by country, 2003-2013\nSource: CBS StatLine Databank\nData cited at: CBS StatLine databank https://opendata.cbs.nl/statline/portal.html?_la=en&_catalog=CBS Publication: International trade; Imports and exports of services by country, 2003-2013 https://opendata.cbs.nl/portal.html?_la=en&_catalog=CBS&tableId=80414ENG&_theme=1118 License: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ This table contains information on Dutch imports and exports of services broken down by various service types and countries (groups).

The Agricultural Resources domain covers: Investment, Land and irrigation, Labor, Machinery, Fertilizers, Pesticides, Population. The Resources domain considers factors of production for the agricultural sector. Broadly speaking, this section details how countries differ in endowments of the three classic inputs: labor, land and capital. Qualitative differences are important for each but are particularly difficult to summarize in a single indicator for land, the productivity of which depends heavily on water and soil conditions.\nInvestment - Machinery Archive\nIPP.Stat Merged\nThe IPP.Stat is the statistics portal of the Innovation Policy Platform containing the main available indicators relevant to a country\u2019s innovation performance. In addition to the traditional indicators used to monitor innovation, the range of the coverage to be found in the IPP.Stat calls for the inclusion of indicators from other domains that describe the broader national and international context in which innovation occurs. Indicators are sourced primarily from the OECD and the World Bank, as well as from other sources of comparable quality. The statistics portal is still under development.\nThe Joint External Debt Hub (JEDH)-jointly developed by the Bank for International Settlements (BIS), the International Monetary Fund (IMF), the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) and the World Bank (WB)-brings together external debt data and selected foreign assets from international creditor/market and national debtor sources. The JEDH replaces the Joint BIS-IMF-OECD-WB Statistics on External Debt, a website that was launched in 1999 to provide international data, mainly from creditor sources, on the external debt of developing and transition countries and territories.\nLabour dependency ratio -- ILO modelled estimates, May 2018\nThis indicator provides the ratio of dependents (persons aged 0 to 14 + persons aged 15 and above that are either outside the labour force or unemployed) to total employment. The series is calculated based on ILO estimates that are harmonized to account for differences in national data and scope of coverage, collection and tabulation methodologies as well as for other country-specific factors. Data for 1990-2015 are estimates while 2016-2030 data are projections. The dataset was updated as of July 2017. For more information, refer to the ILO estimates and projections methodological note.\nLabour force by sex and age -- ILO modelled estimates, July 2017 (thousands)\nThe labour force comprises all persons of working age who furnish the supply of labour for the production of goods and services during a specified time-reference period. It refers to the sum of all persons of working age who are employed and those who are unemployed. The series is part of the ILO estimates and is harmonized to account for differences in national data and scope of coverage, collection and tabulation methodologies as well as for other country-specific factors. Data for 1990-2015 are estimates while 2016-2030 data are projections. The dataset was updated as of July 2017.

All data relating to Total Economy, Agriculture, Forestry and Fishing, and Total Manufacturing originates from the United Nations Statistics Division (UNSD) which maintains and annually updates the \"National Accounts Estimates of Main Aggregates\" database. It consists of a complete and consistent set of time series of the main National Accounts (NA) aggregates of all UN Members States and other territories in the world for which National Accounts information is available. The UNSD database's content is based on the countries' official NA data reported to UNSD through the annual National Accounts Questionnaire, supplemented with data estimates for any years and countries with incomplete or inconsistent information. FAOSTAT Macro Indicators database reproduces a selection of time series from the UNSD National Accounts Estimates of Main Aggregates such as GDP, GFCF and sectoral VA. Additional analytical indicators such as annual per capita GDP (calculated using annual population series from the UNSD) and annual growth rates for GDP, GFCF and VA are included toghether with the investment ratio GFCF/GDP and the sectors'contribution to total economy GDP. Series on value added on Manufacture of Food, Beverages and Tobacco products originates - in order of priority - from OECD Annual National Accounts and UNIDO INDSTAT2 databases. In order to ensure that sub-industry series are consistent in levels with National Accounts based series, which is needed to support comparability across industries (agriculture vs. agro-industry and sub-industries), we proceed to a rescaling exercise of UNIDO originating series on UNSD National Accounts Estimates of Main Aggregates data series.\nMale labour force as % of working-age population -- ILO modelled estimates, July 2017\nMaritime Transport Costs HS1988\nThe Maritime Transport Costs (MTC)database contains data from 1991 to the most recent available year of bilateral maritime transport costs. Transport costs are available for 43 importing countries (including EU15 countries as a custom union) from 218 countries of origin at the detailed commodity (6 digit) level of the Harmonized System 1988. This dataset should only be used in conjunction with the paper Clarifying Trade Costs in Maritime Transport which outlines methodology, data coverage and caveats to its use. Key Statistical Concept Import charges represent the aggregate cost of all freight, insurance and other charges (excluding import duties) incurred in bringing the merchandise from alongside the carrier at the port of export and placing it alongside the carrier at the first port of entry in the importing country. Insurance charges are therefore included in the transport cost variables and are estimated to be approximately 1.5% of the import value of the merchandise.\nMaternal mortality ratio per 10 000 live births by rural / urban areas (%)\nThis indicator is a proxy for health system outcomes. It represents the number of maternal deaths per 10 000 live births. A higher figure indicates worse outcomes. This is one of five indicators measuring key dimensions (drivers) of deficits in health care access and coverage. For analytical purposes the full set of indicators should be considered together.\nMean Temperature and Precipitation around the World\nUploaded by: Mikhail Zhukovskii\nMeasuring the Information Society Report, 2017\nMeasuring the information society report presents a global overview of the latest developments in information and communication technologies (ICTs), based on internationally comparable data and agreed methodologies. It aims to stimulate the ICT policy debate in ITU Member States by providing an objective assessment of countries\u2019 performance in the field of ICT and by highlighting areas that need further improvement. The ICT Development Index (IDI) is a composite index that combines 11 indicators into one benchmark measure. It is used to monitor and compare developments in information and communication technology (ICT) between countries and over time. The IDI is divided into the following three sub-indices, and a total of 11 indicators: Access sub-index: This sub-index captures ICT readiness, and includes five infrastructure and access indicators (fixed-telephone subscriptions, mobile-cellular telephone subscriptions, international Internet bandwidth per Internet user, households with a computer, and households with Internet access). Use sub-index: This sub-index captures ICT intensity, and includes three intensity and usage indicators (individuals using the Internet, fixed broadband subscriptions, and mobile-broadband subscriptions). Skills sub-index: This sub-index seeks to capture capabilities or skills which are important for ICTs. It includes three proxy indicators (mean years of schooling, gross secondary enrolment, and gross tertiary enrolment). As these are proxy indicators, rather than indicators directly measuring ICT-related skills, the skills sub-index is given less weight in the computation of the IDI than the other two sub-indices. The data has been normalized to ensure that the data set uses the same unit of measurement. The values for the indicators selected to construct the IDI are converted into the same unit of measurement, since some indicators have maximum value as 100 whereas for other indicators the maximum value exceeds 100 After normalizing the data, the individual series were all rescaled to identical ranges, from 1 to 10.\nMedian age of the labour force by sex -- ILO modelled estimates, July 2017 (years)\nThe median age marks the point where half the group is older than that age and half is younger. The labour force comprises all persons of working age who furnish the supply of labour for the production of goods and services during a specified time-reference period. It refers to the sum of all persons of working age who are employed and those who are unemployed. The series is part of the ILO estimates and is harmonized to account for differences in national data and scope of coverage, collection and tabulation methodologies as well as for other country-specific factors. Data for 1990-2015 are estimates while 2016-2030 data are projections. The dataset was updated as of July 2017.

Changes over time may indicate whether the trade profiles are becoming more or less compatible.\nMerchandise Trade Indices, Annual, 1980-2017\nMerchandise: Trade value, volume, unit value, terms of trade indices and purchasing power index of exportsThis dataset contains export and import volume indices, rounding out trade value. Export and import unit value indices, derived terms of trade and purchasing power of exports indices are also provided in various base and reference years (2000, 2010 and 2015).The value index is the current value of exports (FOB) or imports (CIF) converted to United States dollars and expressed in percentage. The volume index is derived as the percentage ratio of the export or import value index to the corresponding unit value index (value index / unit value index *100) unless otherwise noted at country level.The weights used for the calculation of the indices correspond to base year 2000. For convenience, and to facilitate international comparisons, the series have been rescaled to new references 2010=100 and 2015=100.\nMerchandise Trade Matrix \u2013 Detailed Products, Exports and Imports in Thousands of dollars\nMerchandise trade matrix - detailed products, exports and imports in thousands of United States dollars, annual This dataset presents merchandise trade by trading partner and product based on three digit level SITC Revision 3 commodity classification, expressed in thousands of dollars.

A person's country of usual residence is the country in which the person has a place to live where he or she normally spends the daily period of rest. Temporary travel abroad for purposes of recreation, holiday, business, medical treatment or religious pilgrimage does not entail a change in the country of usual residence. Data are disaggregated by country of origin. A person's country of origin is that from which the person originates, i.e. the country of his or her citizenship (or, in the case of stateless persons, the country of usual residence).\nMigration and Remittances Factbook\nMigration and Remittances Fact book provides a snapshot of migration and remittances for all countries, regions and income groups of the world, compiled from available data from various sources.\nMigration Statistics of Netherlands by Country of Birth\nImmigration and emigration in the Netherlands and the administrative corrections by country of birth, sex, age and marital status.

Gender Parity Index (GPI)= Value of indicator for Girls/ Value of indicator for Boys. For e.g GPI=School enrolment for Girls/School enrolment for Boys. A value of less than one indicates differences in favor of boys, whereas a value near one (1) indicates that parity has been more or less achieved. The greater the deviation from 1 greater the disparity is.\nMineral Industry of North Korea\nMortality and welfare cost from exposure to air pollution\nAir pollution is considered one of the most pressing environmental and health issues across OECD countries and beyond. According to the World Health Organisation (WHO), exposure to fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and ground-level ozone (O3) have potentially the most significant adverse effects on health compared to other pollutants. PM2.5 can be inhaled and cause serious health problems including both respiratory and cardiovascular disease, having its most severe effects on children and elderly people. Exposure to PM2.5 has been shown to considerably increase the risk of heart disease and stroke in particular. For these reasons, population exposure to (outdoor or ambient) PM2.5 has been identified as an OECD Green Growth headline indicator. Exposure to ground-level ozone (O3) has serious consequences for human health, contributing to, or triggering, respiratory diseases. These include breathing problems, asthma and reduced lung function (WHO, 2016; Brauer et al., 2016). Ozone exposure is highest in emission-dense countries with warm and sunny summers. The most important determinants are background atmospheric chemistry, climate, anthropogenic and biogenic emissions of ozone precursors such as volatile organic compounds, and the ratios between different emitted chemicals.\nMuslim Population in the World, 2010-2030\nNotes : 2010 is Estimated Population, 2030 is Projected Population.\nNamibia: Foreign Trade\nSource: Namibia Statistics Agency\nNamibia Trade statistics, 2016\nNational Accounts of Costa Rica\nSource: National Institute of Statistics and Censuses, Costa Rica\nNational Health Accounts (NHA) provides evidence to monitor trends in health spending for all sectors- public and private, different health care activities, providers, diseases, population groups and regions in a country.

It includes also a table on of the balance of payments estimates. The commodity classification used in the presentation of foreign trade data is the Hormonised System, which has been adopted in Oman since 1987, in addition to the SITC Revision (4) for international comparison. Commodity values are estimated in Rial Omani on the basis of the (C.I.F.) value for imports (i.e. the cost, insurance and freight of goods to the custom points in Oman) and (F.O.B.) for exports and re-exports.\nOther official flows (OOF) and export credits - disbursements [DAC2b]\nOther official flows are official sector transactions which do not meet the ODA criteria, e.g.: i.) Grants to developing countries for representational or essentially commercial purposes; ii.) Official bilateral transactions intended to promote development but having a grant element of less than 25 per cent; iii.) Official bilateral transactions, whatever their grant element, that are primarily export-facilitating in purpose. This category includes by definition export credits extended directly to an aid recipient by an official agency or institution (\"official direct export credits\"); iv.) The net acquisition by governments and central monetary institutions of securities issued by multilateral development banks at market terms; v.) Subsidies (grants) to the private sector to soften its credits to developing countries [see Annex 3, paragraph A3.5.iv)b)]; vi.) Funds in support of private investment.\nOutflow of nationals by sex and country of destination (thousands)\nThe outflows of nationals for any given country refer to the number of its legal citizens who changed their country of usual residence to outside of that country during the reference period. A person's country of usual residence is the country in which the person has a place to live where he or she normally spends the daily period of rest. Temporary travel abroad for purposes of recreation, holiday, business, medical treatment or religious pilgrimage does not entail a change in the country of usual residence. Data are disaggregated by sex and country of destination. The country of destination is the country that is a destination for migratory flows.\nOutput per worker (GDP constant 2010 US $) -- ILO modelled estimates, May 2018\nThis measure of labour productivity is calculated using data on GDP in constant 2010 US dollars derived from the World Development Indicators database of the World Bank.

To compute labour productivity as GDP per worker, ILO estimates for total employment are used.\nOwn-account workers as % of total employment -- ILO modelled estimates, May 2018\nSource: Passport Index\nPassport Index is an interactive tool, which collects, displays and ranks the passports of the world. You can discover the world\u2019s passports on a map, by country name, by Passport Power Rank and even by the color of their cover. Visa Free Score Passports accumulate points for each visa free country that their holders can visit without a visa, or they can obtain a visa on arrival. Passport Power Rank Passports are ranked based on their Visa Free Score. The higher the Visa Free Score, the better the Passport Power Rank. Methodology The country list is based on the 193 UN member countries and 6 territories (Macao, Kosovo, etc.) for a total of 199. Territories annexed to other countries such as Norfolk Island, French Polynesia, etc. are excluded. Data is based on research from publicly available sources, as well as information shared by government agencies.\nPatent Application and Grant Statistics by Applicant's Origin\nData cited at: \"WIPO statistics database\" which is made available under a BY 3.0 IGO License Total Patent Applications Total Count by Applicant's Origin Zaire, officially the Republic of Zaire, was the name of Democratic Republic of the Congo between 1971 and 1997.\nPatent Indicators\nThe OECD Environment Directorate, in collaboration with the Directorate for Science, Technology and Innovation, has developed patent-based innovation indicators that are suitable for tracking developments in environment-related technologies. The indicators allow the assessment of countries' and firms' innovative performance as well as the design of governments' environmental and innovation policies. The patent statistics presented here are constructed using data extracted from the Worldwide Patent Statistical Database (PATSTAT) of the European Patent Office (EPO) using algorithms developed by the OECD. Consistent with other patent statistics provided in OECD.Stat, only published applications for \"patents of invention\" are considered (i.e. excluding utility models, petty patents, etc.). The relevant patent documents are identified using search strategies for environment-related technologies (ENV-TECH) which were developed specifically for this purpose. They allow identifying technologies relevant to environmental management, water-related adaptation and climate change mitigation. An aggregate category labelled \"selected environment-related technologies\" includes all of the environmental domains presented here.\nPatents - International collaboration in technology development (rates)\nPatents - Technology development\nPatents - Technology diffusion\nPercentage of health care expenditure not financed by private households' out of pocket payments (%)\nPersons outside the labour force as % of working-age population -- ILO modelled estimates, July 2017\nPersons outside the labour force comprise all persons of working age who, during the specified reference period, were not in the labour force (that is, were not employed or unemployed). The working-age population is commonly defined as persons aged 15 years and older, but this varies from country to country. The series is part of the ILO estimates and is harmonized to account for differences in national data and scope of coverage, collection and tabulation methodologies as well as for other country-specific factors.

Data are expressed in terms of area harvested, production quantity, yield and seed quantity. The objective is to comprehensively cover production of all primary crops for all countries and regions in the world. Cereals: Area and production data on cereals relate to crops harvested for dry grain only. Cereal crops harvested for hay or harvested green for food, feed or silage or used for grazing are therefore excluded. Area data relate to harvested area. Some countries report sown or cultivated area only; however, in these countries the sown or cultivated area does not differ significantly in normal years from the area actually harvested, either because practically the whole area sown is harvested or because the area surveys are conducted around the harvest period. Vegetables, total (including melons): Data relate to vegetable crops grown mainly for human consumption. Crops such as cabbages, pumpkins and carrots, when explicitly cultivated for animal feed, are therefore excluded. Statistics on vegetables are not available in many countries, and the coverage of the reported data differs from country to country. In general, it appears that the estimates refer to crops grown in field and market gardens mainly for sale, thus excluding crops cultivated in kitchen gardens or small family gardens mainly for household consumption. Fruit, total (excluding melons): Data refer to total production of fresh fruit, whether finally used for direct consumption for food or feed, or processed into different products: dry fruit, juice, jam, alcohol, etc. Generally, production data relate to plantation crops or orchard crops grown mainly for sale. Data on production from scattered trees used mainly for home consumption are not usually collected. Production from wild plants, particularly berries, which is of some importance in certain countries, is generally disregarded by national statistical services. Therefore, the data for the various fruits and berries are rather incomplete. Bananas and plantains: Figures on bananas refer, as far as possible, to all edible fruit-bearing species of the genus Musa except Musa paradisiaca, commonly known as plantain. Unfortunately, several countries make no distinction in their statistics between bananas and plantains and publish only overall estimates. When this occurs and there is some indication or assumption that the data reported refer mainly to bananas, the data are included. The production data on bananas and plantains reported by the various countries are also difficult to compare because a number of countries report in terms of bunches, which generally means that the stalk is included in the weight. Dates, plantains and total grapes are included in the \u201ctotal fruit\u201d aggregated figures, while olives are excluded. Treenuts: Production of nuts (including chestnuts) relates to nuts in the shell or in the husk. Statistics are very scanty and generally refer only to crops for sale. In addition to the kind of nuts shown separately, production data include all other treenuts mainly used as dessert or table nuts, such as pecan nuts, pili nuts, sapucaia nuts and macadamia nuts. Nuts mainly used for flavouring beverages are excluded as are masticatory and stimulant nuts and nuts used mainly for the extraction of oil or butter, including areca/betel nuts, cola nuts, illipe nuts, karite nuts, coconuts, tung nuts, oilpalm nuts etc. http://www.fao.org/faostat/en/#data/QCCrops processedThe dataset covers the following commodities: Beer of barley; Cotton lint; Cottonseed; Margarine, short; Molasses; Oil, coconut (copra); Oil, cottonseed; Oil, groundnut; Oil, linseed; Oil, maize; Oil, olive, virgin; Oil, palm; Oil, palm kernel; Oil, rapeseed; Oil, safflower; Oil, sesame; Oil, soybean; Oil, sunflower; Palm kernels; Sugar Raw Centrifugal; Wine. http://www.fao.org/faostat/en/#data/QD\nProduction Statistics - Live Animals, Live Stocks Primary, Live Stocks Processed\nThe agricultural production domain covers: Quantity produced Producer price Value at farmgate (forthcoming) Area harvested Yield per hectare\nProduction, Supply and Distribution of Agricultural Commodities by Market Year, February 2019\nUSDA Production, Supply and Distribution dataset contains current and historical official USDA data on production, supply and distribution of agricultural commodities for the United States and key producing and consuming countries.\nPublic health expenditure as a percent of GDP (%)\nPublic health expenditure as a percent of General Government Expenditure (%)\nQuality of Government Institute Standard Dataset (Version January 2019)\nSource: Quality of Government Institute\nData cited at: The Quality of Government Institute; Teorell, Jan, Stefan Dahlberg, S\u00f6ren Holmberg, Bo Rothstein, Natalia Alvarado Pachon & Richard Svensson. 2018.

The renewable power capacity data shown in these tables represents the maximum net generating capacity of power plants and other installations that use renewable energy sources to produce electricity. For most countries and technologies, the data reflects the capacity installed and connected at the end of the calendar year. Pumped storage is included in hydropower but excluded from total renewable energy. The capacity data are presented in megawatts (MW), while the generation data are presented in gigawatt-hours (GWh). Data has been obtained from a variety of sources, including an IRENA questionnaire, official national statistics, industry association reports, consultant reports and news articles. The investment data is presented in millions of United States dollars (USD million) at current prices.\nReserve Bank of Australia Assets and Liabilities, Monthly Update\nSource: Reserve Bank of Australia\nReserve Bank of Australia Assets and Liabilities\nResource Statistics - Land\nData on agricultural land-use are valuable for conducting studies on a various perspectives concerning agricultural production, food security and for deriving cropping intensity among others uses. Indicators derived from the land-use categories can also elucidate the environmental sustainability of countries\u2019 agricultural practices. FAOSTAT Land-use statistics contain a wide range of information on variables that are significant for: understanding the structure of a country\u2019s agricultural sector; making economic plans and policies for food security; deriving environmental indicators, including those related to investment in agriculture and data on gross crop area and net crop area which are useful for policy formulation and monitoring. Land-use resources sub-domain covers: Country area (including area under inland water bodies), Land area (excluding area under inland water bodies), Agricultural area, Arable land and Permanent crops, Arable land, Permanent crops, Permanent meadows and pastures, Forest area, Other land and Area equipped for irrigation. Detailed information on sub-categories: Temporary crops, Temporary meadows and pastures, Fallow land (temporary: less than 5 years), Permanent meadows and pastures cultivated and naturally grown and Organic land. Data are available from 1961 to 2009 for more than 200 countries and areas. Forest area: Global Forest Resource Assessment 2010 (FRA 2010) is the main source of forest area data in FAOSTAT. Data were provided by countries for years 1990, 2000, 2005 and 2010. Data for intermediate years were estimated for FAO using linear interpolation and tabulation. Some of the most interesting data for economists is found in this domain. The national distribution of land, among arable land, pastures and other lands, as well as the importance of irrigation are just some of the interesting data sets.\nGreenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from rice cultivation consist of methane gas from the anaerobic decomposition of organic matter in paddy fields. The FAOSTAT emissions database is computed following Tier 1 IPCC 2006 Guidelines for National GHG Inventories (http://www.ipcc-nggip.iges.or.jp/public/2006gl/vol4.html) and the IPCC 2000 Good Practice Guidance and Uncertainty Management in National GHG Inventories (http://www.ipcc-nggip.iges.or.jp/public/gp/english/). GHG emissions are provided by country, regions and special groups, with global coverage, relative to the period 1961-present (with annual updates) and with projections for 2030 and 2050, expressed both as Gg CH4 and Gg CO2eq.

The database is updated annually, which may include updates to data for any of the years included in the database. Military expenditure in local currency at current prices is presented according to both the financial year of each country and according to calendar year, calculated on the assumption that, where financial years do not correspond to calendar years, spending is distributed evenly through the year. Figures in constant (2016) and current US $, as a share of GDP and per capita are presented according to calendar year. Figures as a share of government expenditure are presented according to financial year. The availability of data varies considerably by country, but for a majority of countries that were independent at the time, data is available from at least the late 1950s. Estimates for regional military expenditure have been extended backwards depending on availability of data for countries in the region, but no estimates for total world military expenditure are available before 1988 due to the lack of data for the Soviet Union.\nSIR Global Ranking Time Series, 2013\nSource: Scimago Lab\nThe SIR reports are not league tables. The ranking parameter \u2013the scientific output of institutions- should be understood as a default rank, not our ranking proposal. The only goal of this report is to characterize research outcomes of organizations so as to provide useful scientometric information to institutions, policymakers and research manager so they are able to analyze, evaluate and improve their research results. If someone uses this report to rank institutions or to build a league table with any purpose, he/she will do it under his/her own responsibility. Output - Total number of documents published in scholarly journals indexed in Scopus (Romo-Fern\u00e1ndez, et al., 2011). International Collaboration - Institution's output ratio produced in collaboration with foreign institutions. The values are computed by analyzing an institution's output whose affiliations include more than one country address (Guerrero-Bote, Olmeda-G\u00f3mez and Moya-Aneg\u00f3n, 2013; Lancho-Barrantes, Guerrero-Bote and Moya-Aneg\u00f3n, 2013; Lancho-Barrantes, et al., 2013; Chinchilla-Rodr\u00edguez, et al., 2012) Normalized Impact - Normalized Impact is computed using the methodology established by the Karolinska Intitutet in Sweden where it is named \"Item oriented field normalized citation score average\". The normalization of the citation values is done on an individual article level. The values (in %) show the relationship between an institution's average scientific impact and the world average set to a score of 1, --i.e. a NI score of 0.8 means the institution is cited 20% below world average and 1.3 means the institution is cited 30% above average (Rehn and Kronman, 2008; Gonz\u00e1lez-Pereira, Guerrero-Bote and Moya- Aneg\u00f3n, 2011). High Quality Publications - Ratio of publications that an institution publishes in the most influential scholarly journals of the world, those ranked in the first quartile (25%) in their categories as ordered by SCImago Journal Rank (SJRII) indicator (Miguel, Chinchilla-Rodr\u00edguez and Moya-Aneg\u00f3n, 2011). Specialization Index - The Specialization Index indicates the extent of thematic concentration /dispersion of an institution\u2019s scientific output. Values range between 0 and 1, indicating generalist vs. specialized institutions respectively. This indicator is computed according to the Gini Index used in Economy (Moed, et. al., 2011; L\u00f3pez-Illescas, Moya-Aneg\u00f3n and Moed, 2011; Arencibia-Jorge et al., 2012). In this indicator, when the value is 0 it means that the data are not sufficient to calculate. Excellence Rate - Excellence rate indicates the amount (in %) of an institution\u2019s scientific output that is included into the set of the 10% of the most cited papers in their respective scientific fields. It is a measure of high quality output of research institutions (SCImago Lab, 2011; Bornmann, Moya-Aneg\u00f3n and Leydesdorff, 2012; Guerrero-Bote and Moya-Aneg\u00f3n, 2012). Scientific Leadership - Leadership indicates an institution\u2019s \u201coutput as main contributor\u201d, that is the number of papers in which the corresponding author belongs to the institution (Moya-Aneg\u00f3n, 2012; Moya-Aneg\u00f3n et. al, 2013; Moya-Aneg\u00f3n, et al., forthcoming) Excellence with Leadership - Excellence with Leadership indicates the amount of documents in the Excellence rate in which the institution is the main contributor (Moya-Aneg\u00f3n, et al., 2013).\nStaff access deficit by rural / urban areas (% of population not covered due to health professional staff deficit) (%)\nThis indicator is a proxy for the availability of health care. It represents the percentage of the population without access to health care due to the absence of the health workforce. The threshold for having a sufficient health workforce is 41.1 health workers per 10 000 population. A higher figure indicates worse availability. Note that this indicator reflects the supply side of availability, in this case the availability of human resources is at a level that guarantees at least basic, but universal, access. To estimate access to the services of skilled medical professionals (physicians, nursing and midwifery personnel), it uses as a proxy the relative difference between the density of these health workers in a given country (number per 10 000 population) and its median value in countries with a low level of vulnerability (defined according to the structure of employment and levels of poverty).To establish whether a country is spending 'enough' or has 'enough' key health workers, it is necessary first to define what constitutes 'enough', i.e. set a threshold against which a country's performance can be compared. Opinions differ on what constitutes 'enough' in these contexts, not least because it is likely to be a moving target, influenced by prevailing health issues, demography etc. The ILO's approach for measuring financial deficit is to: (i) calculate the median expenditure on health (excluding OOP) in low-vulnerability countries, then (ii) for each country, compare spending against this median. In 2014, the median in low-vulnerability countries was US$239. For example, a country spending 50% less than the median in low-vulnerability countries has a financial deficit of 50%. The same principle applies to the staff access deficit indicator, for which the 2014 median in low-vulnerability countries was 41.1. This is one of five indicators measuring key dimensions of deficits in health care access and coverage. For analytical purposes the full set of indicators should be considered together.\nSteel Making Capacity\nExcess capacity is one of the main challenges facing the global steel sector.

The Global Slavery Index estimates the number of people in modern slavery in 167 countries. It is a tool for citizens, non government organisations, businesses and public officials to understand the size of the problem, existing responses and contributing factors, so they can build sound policies that will end modern slavery. The Global Slavery Index answers the following questions: What is the estimated prevalence of modern slavery country by country, and what is the absolute number by population? How are governments tackling modern slavery? What factors explain or predict the prevalence of modern slavery? Government Response Rating by Country A - 70 to 79.9 BBB - 60 to 69.9 BB - 50 to 59.9 B - 40 to 49.9 CCC - 30 to 39.9 CC - 20 to 29.9 C - 10 to 19.9 D - <0 to 9.9\nThe Inter-Agency Task Force on International Merchandise Trade Statistics, 2014\nThe CDS (the Common Data Set) is a joint effort by Eurostat, OECD, UNSD, UNCTAD and WTO to reconcile their time series on merchandise trade statistics, using international standards as a benchmark. Each agency is in charge of supplying figures for a predefined set of reporting economies (see Data Providing Agencies and Sources). Reconciliations, co-ordinated by WTO, consist of scrutinising significant differences between the agencies' data to determine the best value. In many instances, this results in finding an agreement on substitution values and estimates. Thus, the CDS database gives access to statistics and documentation of both officially reported and reconciled series. It covers annual total merchandise export and import values of over 200 economies for the period 1995 to 2011.\nThe World Inequality Database: Inequality Report\nSource: World Inequality Database\nThe World Inequality Report 2018 relies on a cutting-edge methodology to measure income and wealth inequality in a systematic and transparent manner.

The EGDI is based on a comprehensive Survey of the online presence of all 193 United Nations Member States, which assesses national websites and how e-government policies and strategies are applied in general and in specific sectors for delivery of essential services. The assessment rates the e-government performance of countries relative to one another as opposed to being an absolute measurement. The results are tabulated and combined with a set of indicators embodying a country\u2019s capacity to participate in the information society, without which e-government development efforts are of limited immediate use. Although the basic model has remained consistent, the precise meaning of these values varies from one edition of the Survey to the next as understanding of the potential of e-government changes and the underlying technology evolves. This is an important distinction because it also implies that it is a comparative framework that seeks to encompass various approaches that may evolve over time instead of advocating a linear path with an absolute goal. 2.

The UIS is based in Montreal, Canada. The dataset contains over 1,000 types of indicators and raw data on education, literacy, science and technology, culture and communication. The UIS collects the data for more than 200 countries and territories from Member States and international organizations.\nUNHCR Population Statistics Database: Resettlement Arrivals of Refugees\nSource: United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees\nNote: In the 2017 data, figures between 1 and 4 represent situations where the figures are being kept confidential to protect the anonymity of individuals. Such figures are not included in any totals. The UNHCR Population Statistics Database currently contains data about UNHCR's populations of concern from the year 1959 up to 2017. UNHCR identifies seven population categories, collectively referred to as \u2018persons of concern\u2019: refugees, asylum-seekers, internally displaced persons (IDPs), refugees who have returned home (returnees), IDPs who have returned home, persons under UNHCR\u2019s statelessness mandate, and others who do not fall under these categories but to whom the agency extends protection. Since 2007, two additional sub-categories have been added: individuals in refugee-like situations (included under refugees) and those in IDP-like situations (included under IDPs). Refugees include individuals recognised under the 1951 Convention relating to the Status of Refugees; its 1967 Protocol; the 1969 OAU Convention Governing the Specific Aspects of Refugee Problems in Africa; those recognised in accordance with the UNHCR Statute; individuals granted complementary forms of protection; or those enjoying temporary protection. Since 2007, the refugee population also includes people in a refugee-like situation. Asylum-seekers are individuals who have sought international protection and whose claims for refugee status have not yet been determined, irrespective of when they may have been lodged. Internally displaced persons (IDPs) are people or groups of individuals who have been forced to leave their homes or places of habitual residence, in particular as a result of, or in order to avoid the effects of armed conflict, situations of generalised violence, violations of human rights, or natural or man-made disasters, and who have not crossed an international border. For the purposes of UNHCR's statistics, this population only includes conflict-generated IDPs to whom the Office extends protection and/or assistance. Since 2007, the IDP population also includes people in an IDP-like situation. Returned refugees are former refugees who have returned to their country of origin spontaneously or in an organised fashion but are yet to be fully integrated. Such return would normally only take place in conditions of safety and dignity. Returned IDPs refer to those IDPs who were beneficiaries of UNHCR's protection and assistance activities and who returned to their areas of origin or habitual residence during the year. Stateless persons are defined under international law as persons who are not considered as nationals by any State under the operation of its law. In other words, they do not possess the nationality of any State. UNHCR statistics refer to persons who fall under the agency\u2019s statelessness mandate because they are stateless according to this international definition, but data from some countries may also include persons with undetermined nationality. Others of concern refers to individuals who do not necessarily fall directly into any of the groups above, but to whom UNHCR extends its protection and/or assistance services, based on humanitarian or other special grounds.\nUNICEF : Maternal Mortality, 1990 - 2015\nSource: United Nations Children's Fund\nMaternal mortality refers to deaths due to complications from pregnancy or childbirth. From 1990 to 2015, the global maternal mortality ratio declined by 44 per cent \u2013 from 385 deaths to 216 deaths per 100,000 live births, according to UN inter-agency estimates. This translates into an average annual rate of reduction of 2.3 per cent. While impressive, this is less than half the 5.5 per cent annual rate needed to achieve the three-quarters reduction in maternal mortality targeted for 2015 in Millennium Development Goal 5. Every region has advanced, although levels of maternal mortality remain unacceptably high in sub-Saharan Africa. Almost all maternal deaths can be prevented, as evidenced by the huge disparities found between the richest and poorest countries. The lifetime risk of maternal death in high-income countries is 1 in 3,300, compared to 1 in 41 in low-income.\nUNICEF : Water and Sanitation Coverage\nAccording to UNICEF report, in 2015, seven out of ten people used a safely managed drinking water service. Universal access to safe drinking water is a fundamental need and human right. Securing access for all would go a long way in reducing illness and death, especially among children. Since 2000, 1.4 billion people have gained access to basic drinking water services, such as piped water into the home or a protected dug well. In 2015, 844 million people still lack a basic water service and among them almost 159 million people still collected drinking water directly from rivers, lakes and other surface water sources. The data reveal pronounced disparities, with the poorest and those living in rural areas least likely to use a basic service. \u201cSafely managed\u201d water services represent an ambitious new rung on the ladder used to track progress on drinking water. In 2015, 5.2 billion people used safely managed services, i.e. accessible on premises, available when needed and free from contamination. A further 1.3 billion used a \u2018basic\u2019 water service, i.e. improved sources within 30 minutes per round trip to collect water. Over a quarter of a billion (258 million) used a \u2018limited\u2019 service where water collection from an improved source exceeded 30 minutes. In most countries the burden of water collection continues to fall mainly to women and girls.\nUNICEF: Child Protection Statistics\nMillions of children are not protected against Violence, Child labor, Trafficking, Sexual exploitation, Female genital mutilation/cutting, Child marriage and worldwide they experience the worst kinds of rights violations. Millions more children, not yet victims, are inadequately protected against them. UNICEF uses the term \u2018Child Protection\u2019 to refer to prevention and response to violence, exploitation and abuse of children in all contexts. This includes reaching children who are especially vulnerable to these threats, such as those living without family care, on the streets or in situations of conflict or natural disasters. Note: Year 2010-2016 is taken as 2016\nUNIDO: Manufacturing Value Added (MVA)\nSource: United Nations Industrial Development Organization\nUnited Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO) produces value added estimates of manufacturing activities at two levels \u2013 the sector level (often termed industry value added) and the aggregated level, referred as manufacturing value added (MVA). Manufacturing value added (MVA) of an economy is the total estimate of net-output of all resident manufacturing activity units obtained by adding up outputs and subtracting intermediate inputs. Measurement of MVA requires appropriate demarcation of the type of economic activity and of the territory in which the activity takes place. However, in practice, MVA cannot simply be derived by adding up all industry value added figures because of the complexity associated with survey methods. Industry value added may not cover all activity units engaged in manufacturing due to the incomplete frame used in the survey. On the other hand, activity units are often classified as manufacturing based on their primary activity. This implies that secondary activity can often be of a non-manufacturing nature. Such discrepancies are resolved in the process of compiling national accounts using supply use or input-output tables. Thus, MVA measures an exclusive and exhaustive contribution of manufacturing to GDP.\nUnited Nations AIDS Data, 1987 - 2014\nSource: Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS\nUNAIDS was mandated by the UN General Assembly to monitor progress on global AIDS response in the 2001 General Assembly Special Session on HIV and AIDS, and reaffirmed in the 2011 High Level Meeting.

It is defined as a person's weight in kilograms divided by the square of his height in meters (kg/m2). The WHO definition is: a BMI greater than or equal to 25 is overweight a BMI greater than or equal to 30 is obesity. BMI provides the most useful population-level measure of overweight and obesity as it is the same for both sexes and for all ages of adults. However, it should be considered a rough guide because it may not correspond to the same degree of fatness in different individuals.\nWHO World Malaria Statistics, 2018\nWHO/UNICEF Water Supply Statistics\nWorking poverty rate (percentage of employed living below US$1.90 PPP) (%)\nThe working poverty rate conveys the percentage of employed persons living in poverty in spite of being employed.

It reflects the degree of freedom that journalists, news organizations and netizens enjoy in each country, and the efforts made by the authorities to respect and ensure respect for this freedom. It is based partly on a questionnaire that is sent to our partner organizations (18 freedom of expression NGOs located in all five continents), to our network of 150 correspondents, and to journalists, researchers, jurists and human rights activists. The 179 countries ranked in this year\u2019s index are those for which Reporters Without Borders received completed questionnaires from various sources. Some countries were not included because of a lack of reliable, confirmed data. A score and a position are assigned to each country in the final ranking. They are complementary indicators that together assess the state of press freedom. In order to make the index more informative and make it easier to compare different years, scores will henceforth range from 0 to 100, with 0 being the best possible score and 100 the worst. The index reflects the situation during a specific period. This year\u2019s index is based solely on events between the start of December 2012 and the end of November 2013.

From an early age she was drawn to the worlds of these artists and of the Pre-Raphaelites, where a subtle, supernatural beauty seems to be hiding under the breath of the human form; worlds where something beyond our natural perception is present.\nT Good has developed a pared down approach to composition as well as her palette. It is the result of her further search to find a way to simplify her work by deciding not to use props or backgrounds. Not only does this add to the evocative mood and other worldly feel, in addition it draws the viewers attention to what Good wants them to see, to feel; to what is important in that particular piece.\n\u2018The sheer beauty of a single line, the way that light plays on her hair, the feelings conveyed by her body language in a single unguarded moment- these are things that inspire me time and time again. Sometimes a sense of peace, sometimes melancholy, the million different emotions that make up human nature, every one interests and inspires me.\u2019",

        "raw_content": "Diane Gordon connects her Nissan Leaf to a charging station in Balboa Park in July 2018. (John Gibbins/San Diego Union-Tribune/TNS)\nHere's how much California is spending to put electric cars on the road\nBy Rob Nikolewski, The San Diego Union-Tribune\nCalifornia policymakers are committed to making sure that electric vehicles - and the charging stations and other infrastructure needs associated with them - transform the state's transportation sector. But it won't come cheaply.\nA review conducted by the San Diego Union-Tribune showed various state agencies have committed $2.46 billion in public funds - some of it already spent and the rest planned over a number of years - for programs aimed at luring drivers out of cars and trucks powered by internal combustion engines and encouraging them into zero- or low-emission vehicles.\nAnd that doesn't count the $800 million in electric vehicle, or EV, programs that Volkswagen is spending across the state as part of an unprecedented settlement to help resolve the car maker's emissions scandal. A state entity - the California Air Resources Board - is overseeing how and where the money is spent.\nWhen the VW settlement is taken into account, investments to electrify California's transportation landscape go well north of $3 billion, thus far.\n\"For the average person, that's a big number, when you're talking about billions,\" said Carla Peterman, who recently completed a six-year term as a commissioner at the California Public Utilities Commission. \"But when you look at the actual transportation sector and how much money goes annually into infrastructure and fuel, it's a small amount.\"\nThe two largest portions of the money come from a pair of the most influential agencies in state government - the utilities commission, or CPUC, and the California Air Resources Board, also known as CARB.\nThe CPUC has set aside $1.048 billion for various EV programs, with a lot of emphasis on constructing charging stations. The money comes from ratepayer fees collected by the three investor-owned utilities the CPUC oversees - San Diego Gas & Electric, Southern California Edison and Pacific Gas & Electric.\nThe air resources board has budgeted a slightly higher amount - $1.087 billion.\nMore than half goes to the state's rebate program that is offered to Californians who buy or lease low- or no-emissions vehicles the state deems eligible, such as battery-electric and plug-in hybrids.\nThe standard rebate gives Californians $2,500 who buy or lease battery-electric vehicles, $1,500 for plug-in hybrids and $5,000 for hydrogen fuel-cell vehicles. Lower income drivers can get more, while high-income drivers are subject to caps.\nAnother $423 million of CARB's efforts go to zero-emission trucks, buses and other vehicles to rid 10,000 tons of noxious nitrogen oxide from California's air.\nThe vast majority of the dollars CARB reserves for its EV initiatives comes from money raised via the state's cap-and-trade program, the trading system put in place to reduce greenhouse gases.\nA third state agency - the California Energy Commission - also spends money on EV adoption programs, but to a lesser extent. Using money largely from Department of Motor Vehicles registration fees, the commission will spend $230 million through January 2024 to build refueling stations for hydrogen fuel-cell vehicles.\nThe CEC expects to spend another $95 million by the end of this year on charging stations and other EV programs, although the commission said the numbers may eventually exceed $200 million.\nThe EV push didn't happen on its own.\nA combination of legislation, executive branch decisions and directives from regulatory bodies have resulted in a slew of programs aimed at remaking the auto sector.\nFormer Gov. Jerry Brown originally set a goal of 1.5 million zero-emission vehicles on the state's roads by 2025 but last year issued an executive order that dramatically increased the number to 5 million by 2030.\nAnd the CPUC's largest single EV investment - about $780 million over the space of five years - came as a result of 2015's Senate Bill 350 that calls for 50 percent of electricity in the state to come from renewable energy sources and a 40 percent reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by 2030.\nState officials acknowledge the costs and say more programs are still to come. Supporters envision a vast network of charging stations - in communities both big and small as well as wealthy and needy - extending all the way to the state line with Oregon to the north and the Mexican border to the south.\n\"We are under a directive from the governor's office to help make the state carbon neutral by 2045,\" said CARB spokesman Dave Clegern. If the targets are hit, Clegern said by 2050 the state should have a fleet of vehicles that is about 90 percent or more electric.\n\"There are several reasons why we're doing this,\" Clegern said. \"First of all is because we have to. Californians all over the state are seeing the impacts now from climate change and this is a key part of getting greenhouse gas emissions down.\"\nAccording to CARB, the transportation sector accounts for the largest single source of greenhouse gas emissions in the state - 41 percent.\nCalifornia is home to more than 537,000 EVs, far more than any other state. At the same time, though, EVs represent a tiny fraction of the 25 million registered automobiles in California and the state would need to increase EV adoption by nine-fold in the next 11 years to meet the target of 5 million.\nCARB officials say the goals can be reached.\n\"The sales curve has gone up quite steeply,\" Clegern said. EV sales in California increased from 96,847 in 2017 to 177,781 in 2018, a jump of 84 percent. \"It's catching on, definitely, and as people see the chargers and realize they're able to do this, that there's help out there, they buy the cars. They are good cars. And who wants to go to the gas station?\"\nThe other organization spending big, green bucks in California is a private company that got into big trouble.\nVolkswagen, after getting caught cheating in an elaborate scheme to manipulate diesel vehicle emission tests, created a subsidiary called Electrify America that will spend $2 billion over the next 10 years on EV programs across the country.\nOf that, $800 million will be spent in California over a 10-year period, with CARB looking over VW's shoulder to make sure at least 35 percent of the money goes to disadvantaged communities populated by drivers who often cannot afford EVs in the first place, not to mention charging stations in the garages of their homes or apartments.\nIn November 2017, the U.S. Department of Energy counted more than 15,000 public charging stations in California, the highest in the country. The VW programs will help boost those numbers but Clegern said the project \"will not give us more than about 10 percent of what we need.\"\nPlaces of emphasis include apartments, condominiums, urban areas and commercial parking lots.\nAdrian Moore, vice president of policy at the Los Angeles-based Reason Foundation, which advocates free-market economic policies, criticized the state's spending on EVs on a number of fronts.\n\"Yes, I think there's general support for electric vehicles,\" Moore said but described the funding as \"opaque\" because it comes from sources often folded into other fees, such as the rates utility customers pay each month. That, Moore said, hides costs, which can add up over time.\n\"I bet if you turned this whole thing into a single bill and said ... OK, we're just going to send you an annual bill for your share of the electric vehicle subsidy, are you happy with this amount? You might get a little more resistance.\"\nMoore said the state's programs amount to agencies in Sacramento picking winners.\n\"They're deciding which things need to get subsidized at how much (and) not leaving it up to the taxpayers or the consumers,\" he said. \"And they have a bad track record. They've thrown billions at failed enterprises and failed programs.\"\nThe way CARB sees it, though, the state has \"waited far too long to make this push,\" Clegern said. \"If we don't do it now, it's not going to happen and we're going to see very, very big problems for the people of California and for our economy as the result of climate change.\"\nPeterman, who was the CPUC's lead commissioner on electric vehicle proceedings, said the transformation can end up being a winner for the state on multiple levels.\n\"There are benefits for the grid as well as for customers,\" she said. \"Electric vehicles, when they're charged in a certain manner, can actually help us with integrating renewable energy and not wasting it. And it leads to more electric sales overall. And that can reduce the cost for every customer, even if you don't have an electric vehicle, because there's more customers to spread some of those fixed costs across.\"\nAccording to the CEC, California consumed 15.5 billion gallons of gasoline in 2017, the majority going into the tanks of cars, SUVs and pick-up trucks. The CEC estimates California consumers and businesses spend about a little more than $130 million a day on gas.\n\"For me, it's a passionate subject because electrifying the transportation sector is a solution to so many of the challenges we face,\" Peterman said. \"I just think it's such a win. But it's complicated and it's expensive and and it's a long, long road.\"\nElectric transportation programs in California\nCPUC (programs funded by ratepayers)\n(ASTERISK)approximately $780 million in \"transportation electrification projects\" the commission in 2018 directed the state's three big investor-owned utilities (San Diego Gas & Electric, Southern California Edison and Pacific Gas & Electric) to implement over five years\n(ASTERISK)$42 million for pilot programs by the three utilities\n(ASTERISK)$7.3 million that three of California's smaller investor-owned utilities were told to spend on electrification projects\n(ASTERISK)$44 million for Edison's \"Charge Ready\" pilot program\n(ASTERISK)$45 million for SDG&E's \"Power Your Drive\" program that is expected to wrap up in the next few months.

        "title": "How Do I Protect My Intellectual Property As A Tattoo Artist?",
        "raw_content": "How Do I Protect My Intellectual Property As A Tattoo Artist?\nMay 19, 2015 (Updated on September 6, 2016)\nIntellectual property (IP) is an umbrella term used to identify intangible rights including copyright, trade marks and patents. Certain types of IP such as trade marks, designs and patents are registrable rights, whereas others, such as copyright, are not.\nDoes Copyright Subsist In Your Tattoo?\nCopyright is a set of economic rights protecting various subject matters including artistic works. In Australia, copyright is automatic and does not need registration. Where copyright would automatically subsist in artistic works such as drawings, paintings and sketches on more traditional mediums such as a paper or fabric canvas, it is unclear whether the same applies for tattoos, where the artistic work is etched onto the human body. However there are still ways of protecting your intellectual property as a tattoo artist.\nPut Sketches, Drawings and Designs Onto Paper or Other Mediums\nAny tattoo designs drawn on more traditional mediums (e.g. paper) would be protected by copyright. You should consider dating the work, and inscribing your name, signing or putting down a mark that readily identifies you as the author of the work. Such a mark will not only help build your portfolio of works, but may also affect the duration of copyright protection.\nEnter Into a Collaboration Agreement\nIf you collaborate with another tattoo artist to produce a particular design, you should consider executing a collaboration agreement and set out who will own the work or whether it will be jointly owned.\nIf you provide your tattooing services using a particular trade mark, whether it is a name or logo, consider registering the mark to afford yourself greater legal protection.\nCheck Your Employment Agreement\nIt is not uncommon for an employment agreement to have an intellectual property clause detailing who owns the intellectual property created during the course of employment. Whether you are an employer or employee, you should review your agreement, checking the intellectual property clause to determine who will own the tattoo designs.\nIf you are the intellectual property right holder of the work, you can grant permission to another individual or business to use the work through assignment or under a licence.\nIf Copyright Subsists, How Long Does it Protect My Work For?\nDuration of copyright protection is different from trade marks and other registrable rights where the duration is determined in set periods from the time of registration. The duration of copyright in original works is life of the author plus 70 years. However, the duration of copyright in anonymous and pseudonymous works is only 70 years from the year the work is first published. This is why it may be important and valuable to include your identity on your artistic work.\nIntellectual property can be a valuable commodity and should be protected. It is a good idea to have any agreements governing your rights, including copyright or other intellectual property rights, be in written form.

        "raw_content": "You are here: Home / Knowledge / Compliance / Legionnaires Disease \u2013 Which Business Sectors are at Risk?\nLegionnaires Disease \u2013 Which Business Sectors are More at Risk?\nIn the UK if you are a business owner, or you manage premises for someone else, you are required by law to assess that business or premises to see whether there is a risk of legionella contamination in your water systems\u2026 and your starting point for this would be a Legionnaires risk assessment. However, you might be surprised to learn that some businesses and industries have a greater risk than others when it comes to legionella and Legionnaires\u2019 disease. Are you involved in any of them?\nLegionnaires disease and assessment of risk\nWhile your assessment may identify little or no risk of any problems associated with Legionella bacteria at your premises, this won\u2019t be the case in every business or industry. If you look through the list of sectors below and you find your business is included in one of these areas, perhaps it would be prudent to check your procedures, to ensure you are meeting the legal requirements placed on you.\nElderly people are particularly vulnerable to many illnesses and diseases. Therefore, if legionella is present and can multiply in the water systems, care homes and their residents may prove to be particularly at risk from the dangers posed by Legionella bacteria and Legionnaires\u2019 disease.\nIndustrial and manufacturing settings\nCooling towers and complex process systems that use water are particularly prevalent in these industries. Furthermore, they can be challenging to maintain and keep safe regarding the prevalence of Legionella bacteria. For example, spray emitted from cooling towers can affect many people in the immediate area of the cooling tower, it may also travel on the wind, drifting outside the business and potentially affect those in areas nearby.\nHotels, spas, and other hospitality settings\nThe more complex a buildings water systems are, the more challenging it will be to manage the risk of legionella growth and contamination. Additionally, spa pools, hot tubs, and similar equipment are known to be at high risk of contamination. There are also likely to be occasions where equipment is used extensively, and other times of the year during periods of lower occupancy when it may rarely be used, leading to further challenges in keeping the water supply clean and safe year-round.\nFrom a large hospital to a small dental practice, any healthcare setting will use water for many reasons. They will also have complex water requirements and systems, and will also have patients present who may be at greater risk of infection. For these any many other reasons hospitals and other healthcare facilities tend to pose a higher risk.\nAll landlords, property owners and property managers have a duty to ensure they assess their properties for the risk of legionella. In many cases, a simple risk assessment will suffice. However, there are cases where buildings may be empty for a time and therefore standing water will create a greater risk of contamination.\nThe need for a Legionnaires risk assessment\nDoes your business fall into one of these sectors? While the list is not exhaustive, even if it does not, you need to be aware that you have a legal duty to ensure it is safe from potential legionella growth and the dangers that can come from Legionnaires\u2019 disease.\nRead more about Legionnaires disease here",

        "title": "The Most Important Skills You Need to Start a Writing Career",
        "raw_content": "The Most Important Skills You Need to Start a Writing Career\nSo you want to get paid for your writing, but you've never been published. You have no formal experience, and no one's ever hired you for a writing-related job. The professional legwork that comes with getting paid to write can be intimidating. Honing a few important skills can help you get started.\nWriting, the simple act of putting pen to paper, is challenging enough on its own. But most writers have no problem putting in the creative effort. It's the business side of writing that trips us up\u2014the work that comes with writing to earn a living. Beyond creativity, here are the life skills that will help you launch a professional writer career when you have zero work experience.\nNot all writers are introverted, but many of us certainly are. It can be a tough hurdle to jump, but social skills are a necessity when you're trying to sell others on your ability to communicate with words. Here are a few ways you'll have to break out of your shell.\nDon't be Afraid to Network\nI've always hated adage, \"It's not what you know, it's who you know.\" It implies you can make it simply based on your contacts. While that may be true for some, most of us will eventually have to prove we can do the work, too.\nStill, it's true that many opportunities are given to people through networking. After all, it's just convenient. If I need to hire a writer, why spend hours looking for one when I already know a handful of skilled ones? You probably already know how to network\u2014meetup groups, keeping in touch with colleagues, communicating with fellow writers, etc. But if you have a hard time doing it, here are some tips:\nCome up with a networking \"quota.\" Force yourself to commit to a certain amount of professional engagements per month.\nIn chatting with people, don't worry about being funny or clever. It's enough to just be nice.\nGive before you receive. Offer to help someone out to build your network. A simple gesture can go a long way.\nYou also want to make sure to be professional, diplomatic and kind. If an editor turns you down, thank them for their time. When you leave a job, stay on good terms with not only your employer, but also the employees you interacted with.\nOf course, you're not guaranteed a gig just by being diplomatic and friendly. But opportunities often arise through networking, and a professional social demeanor goes a long way.\nWe all know the writing landscape has changed dramatically in the last decade. Social media is a big part of not just writing, but many other industries, too. You can complain about it, or you can use it to your advantage.\nNimble explains how social media can benefit you as a freelancer. These points are especially helpful for writers who haven't yet been professionally published:\nDemonstrate your talent: Create a public page with examples of your work. Update your social circles when you write something new.\nBuild a reputation: Get people to like, retweet or recommend your stuff, and you've got an instant endorsement.\nMore than that, an adeptness in social media, in and of itself, is an added bonus for a client or employer. In fact, many of them expect it. Over at Make a Living Writing, freelance writer Carole Tice explains:\nWant to know the first thing Entrepreneur magazine asked me when I started blogging for them a few years back? \"Can you retweet your posts?\" At the time, that question was novel. Now, it is increasingly commonplace and no longer an afterthought, but part of the main deal.\nWhether we like it or not, establishing an online presence has become an important part of freelancing, especially if you're just starting out. Don't give into the mentality that embracing these changes means you're not a true artist. Margaret Atwood tweets. Salman Rushdie is on Instagram. Technological evolution is nothing new, so it's best to embrace it. Part of being able to make a living doing what you love is keeping up with the world that's going to pay for your work.\nDon't be afraid to just ask for opportunities, either. You don't have to be annoying about it, but you might be surprised at the simple power of speaking up. Tell your network you're interested in freelance opportunities. If a friend or former colleague lands a new job somewhere, let them know you're available, if they ever need work.\nThe Power of Speaking Up\nLast month, my boyfriend and I took a weekend trip to Seattle to celebrate our anniversary. We got\u2026\nHere's a personal example. When I lost a job a couple of years ago, I was afraid to speak up and let people know I was looking for work. I didn't want to bother anyone, but, if I'm being honest, I was also kind of embarrassed. But I got over it, told an editor I was looking for work and would be grateful for any referrals. As a result, she helped me land several lasting gigs. It made me wonder if I should've spoken up sooner.\nOf course, don't incessantly email an editor or friend asking for favors. No one likes that, and if you do it, your emails will probably be ignored and deleted.\nSome professions come with a pretty standard blueprint. If you want to be a doctor, you go to medical school, complete your residency and get your license. It's not easy, but that's pretty much the roadmap for every doctor.\nBut writing doesn't work that way. Some professional writers have a writing degree; some don't. Some get jobs because they launched a blog that became popular. Some writers are hired because they have friends who are also writers. The point is, the specifics are different for everyone, so you have to work with the opportunities, skills, talents and experiences that are unique to your situation. In other words: be resourceful.\nOptimize the Skills and Resources You Do Have\nAuthor Ahyiana Angel is a great example of the power of resourcefulness. She was a publicist for the NBA who simply got tired of her job and wanted to do something different. She found that she liked writing, and started pitching her very first manuscript.\nIn going through the process, Angel didn't have any previous professional writing experience. But, as a former publicist, she did have marketing skills. She optimized them, and basically became her own publicist. As a result, she landed a few bylines and then became published by Simon and Schuster. (In fact, I asked her for some specific tips for marketing yourself as a writer. More on that later.)\nAlso, Writer's Digest suggests leveraging whatever experience you do have, even if it seems unrelated to the work you want to do:\nTreat every personal experience or article written as a credential or building block. I got my start as a college newspaper editor. Then a favorite English professor invited me to review a novel without pay for a local newspaper, The Charleston Gazette. That \"free\" review led to a paying job at the newspaper. Years later, I became interested in wine. I parlayed that into teaching a wine-tasting class, which led to a gig as a newspaper wine columnist.\nFind a link between your past experience and your current aspirations, then use that experience to your advantage, as much as possible.\nPart of being resourceful is learning to adapt. If you're leveraging your experience, for example, it could be enough to convince a client you might be worth the job. But to convince them you're definitely worth it, you might have to adapt to their way of doing things. Maybe they have a different standard for writing. Maybe they expect you to look for photos to accompany your story.\nAuthor Mark Kobayashi-Hillary discusses this with The Guardian:\n\"I'd tell aspiring journalists to open their mind to the way journalism is changing...In the short term, the best thing any aspiring journalist can do is ensure they are multiskilled. Today, it is no good just being able to write well. You need to understand how to record good audio, edit it, record video, edit that too, and interview/publish in all these various formats. If a potential editor can see that you are familiar with various forms of multimedia publishing then you have a big advantage over the crowd lining up for that job.\"\nIf you can learn to adapt to the changes of your industry and accommodate a client's needs, it'll make it easier for them to say yes to you.\nSimilarly, it also helps to be a little marketing savvy if you want to break into freelancing or earn money with your writing. Here are a few specific marketing skills you should familiarize yourself with.\nThe word makes me cringe, but I can't deny the importance of building a personal brand. And you can do it without being sleazy and obnoxious. Build an online portfolio. Start a blog and engage with readers. Find like-minded people online. Our full article on the matter is worth checking out\u2014there are some great tips. If you're an introvert, you'll probably find these tips helpful, too.\nAngel agrees that it helps to start a blog, where you can regularly post content.\nThis will give you a point of reference for your work when pitching new outlets, editors, or agents that you would like to work with. Create content with a fresh twist and voice. Look to grab the attention of an editor with your storyline or title and content.\nShe adds that part of branding yourself is just being genuine and showcasing your unique voice. We have some tips for starting your own blog, too.\nDear Lifehacker, As a side project/experiment, I\u2019ve started my own blog. The problem is, now that I \u2026\nSearch engine optimization is a fancy buzzword for a simple concept: making sure your writing comes up often when people are Googling that particular topic. Some tactics for making sure your stuff appears in search engine results: coming up with good headlines, using tags the right way, and thinking about how people will search for your topic.\nSEO tactics are always changing, but it's important to have a basic understanding of it is, and how it currently works. Websites like Quicksprout keep up with the changes for you, and break it down in simple terms.\nGuest Posting and Pitching\nIf you need a byline, consider guest posting. This can help with branding, but it can also beef up your portfolio. This way, when you pitch an editor, you have multiple bylines\u2014not just content from your own blog.\nTo land a guest post, you'll have to come up with some relevant ideas and pitch websites. Check out our thorough article on how to write a good pitch, but here are a couple of useful tips.\nWrite an effective, exciting teaser\nAdd a narrative to make the idea more interesting\nOn the topic of pitching, over at Writer's Digest, one writer shared his tactic:\nAnother approach that's sold articles for me is sending a short introductory note inquiring if an editor is receptive to pitches from new freelancers. The logic is simple: You're asking her only to accept you as a potential contributor, not to assign an article. If she says \"yes,\" I follow up with ideas while the connection\u2014however tenuous\u2014is still fresh.\nAngel adds that it helps to thoroughly research outlets. You might look for less popular sites that are actively looking for new talent. Or you might look for new websites that are just hungry for content.\nAny writer will tell you: thick skin is a must. Writing for pay normally involves a lot of rejection. And if that's not fun enough, there are different types of rejection, too! Here's how you'll have to get over any sensitivity.\nDon't Be Afraid to Share Your Work\nIn other words, \"don't be afraid to put yourself out there.\" Share your work. The stuff you're most embarrassed to share might be the most well-received. Don't be afraid if the work isn't perfect, either. Plenty of hugely successful works are far from perfect, depending on whom you ask. Plus, you learn by finishing things, and you learn even more by sharing those things with others and getting their feedback.\nI was born with thin skin, but I've learned to toughen up over the years. One trick that's helped me? I not only expect criticism, I ask for it. These days, when I send someone my writing and ask for their thoughts, I tell them, \"I'd love to know what I could do differently.\" This makes them feel more comfortable telling me if something sucks. Also, it prepares me, emotionally, for the critique. Bottom line? Learn to use criticism as a tool for improvement.\nOf course, some people can be real jerks about it. They'll criticize your writing with the goal of hurting your feelings rather than trying to help. But you can use this to your advantage by removing the emotion from their statement to see if there's anything constructive or useful in it.\nIt's important to remember that, for most people, doing what you love for a living doesn't come easy. This is why persistence is so important.\nOf course, sometimes you try one method over and over and it just doesn't work for you. It's okay to try something else. But don't give up simply because you've been rejected or you didn't get what you wanted right away. Learn to get back up and keep trying, even if it means tweaking your plans. That's where resourcefulness comes in, too.\n\"You May Have the Gears to Succeed, But You Also Need the Engine\"\nYou may not think that skateboarding and success have much in common, but there is one thing\u2026\nWhen it comes to the specifics, every writer's success story is pretty different. A particular route to success may have worked for your favorite writer; that doesn't mean it's going to work for you. Your personality, experiences and situation are unique. But there are a few skills that are universally indispensable, no matter what route you take.\nPhotos by Tina Mailhot-Roberge, Nithi Anand, Rachid H, Bruno Cordioli, guido da rozze and Moyan Brenn.",

        "raw_content": "I finished rewriting my novel last week. The elation and relief! I looked back over my blog posts and saw that I\u2019d started rewriting it in early June last year, so it took me nearly nine months to complete. I won\u2019t reiterate how hard I found it at times and how many times I thought about shelving it. For good.\nMy writing group has read each section as I\u2019ve completed it, and to be able to send the final chapters to them was a reward in itself. To draw the line on it and say, This is it. This is the story. I\u2019ve said it before and I\u2019ll say it again, nothing and no one will make me rewrite it again.\nSo I printed it out, sat down with my red pen, and started to read it from beginning to end. I\u2019m always amazed by how quickly I forget my own words and at times I was surprised by what I\u2019d written. Usually pleasantly. I actually enjoyed the first 100 pages.\nThen I hit a boring patch. That happens, I told myself and kept reading. However, by about page 150 things still hadn\u2019t picked up, and I knew that if I\u2019d been a reader seeing it for the first time, I\u2019d have put it down and not picked it up again.\nFeeling rather deflated, I slept on it, then read the same pages again the next morning. I still hated them.\nI wrote in my journal:\n\u2018I don\u2019t know if all writers feel like this about their work, but right now, I hate mine. I don\u2019t know if it\u2019s because I\u2019m sick of the sight of it, sick of the characters, and sick of the story because I know it so well and it bores me. Whether it\u2019s that, or whether it really is shit and I\u2019ve just spent the last five years writing something that no one will want to read, I don\u2019t know. I was hoping to read and love my own novel. Maybe it\u2019s that we get so far in amongst the trees that we can\u2019t see the forest. Maybe I\u2019ve just lost perspective. Maybe that\u2019s all it is. I hope so.\u2019\nI hoped it was just that I was sick to death of my own words, but something told me it wasn\u2019t. So, I did what I always do when I have a sinking feeling in my belly\u2014I took my dogs and the camera and set off for a long walk. I was on my way back when the answer hit me: It\u2019s the voice. The voice is missing.\nThe plot, the characters, everything else was there\u2014I\u2019d just lost my narrator\u2019s voice. I\u2019d written these scenes a couple of years\u2019 ago when I didn\u2019t know as much as I do now and when I\u2019d been concentrating on getting the story down. I\u2019d shaped them and got them so they told a story and continued the plot, but I\u2019d forgotten to tell them in the voice of my narrator, and the scenes were boring without her unique perspective and her way of telling a story.\nSo, in that short walk I went from hating my novel and feeling as though I\u2019d wasted the last few years working on it, to itching to get back and fix it up. Walking is good like that.\nMeanwhile, the rest of my life hasn\u2019t stopped just because I\u2019m trying to finish a novel: we have a house renovation starting tomorrow. It will involve demolition of a couple of walls and cooking with camping equipment for a few weeks, so please excuse me if I\u2019m not as available online. I\u2019m telling myself it will be worth it in the end, and that at least it will be an experience!\nNow for some photos: I took these in the rain last weekend and turned them into black and white. I\u2019ve already shown one for Midweek Moment and in my spiel for that, I commented that the trees looked as if they\u2019d been strung up with fairy lights. I hope these photos have captured some of that magic.\nThe lake dries out in summer and looks desolate. Especially with a lone ibis standing on a decaying log in the centre:\nAt the end, I had two very wet, but very happy, canines:\nAnd this New Holland Honeyeater was soaking it up, too:\nMargaret Linde on April 3, 2016 at 7:12 pm\nCongratulations! I look forward to reading it.????\nKeep your fingers crossed, Margaret, that someone will want to publish it. Thanks for visiting! xx\nPenny on April 3, 2016 at 8:16 pm\nHow inspired you are\u2014 both in your photography and in recognizing your missing voice! It\u2019s more than luck I think it\u2019s wisdom learned from your past efforts.\nI\u2019m happy for you. I hope you can work through the demolition errr remodeling,\nLouise Allan on April 4, 2016 at 7:51 am\nThanks, Penny. I think one creative pursuit complements the other\u2014when I\u2019ve hit a hard patch in the writing, I get out the camera and that seems enough to keep the creativity going, but also gives my writing brain time to regenerate.\n(PS. There are drills and hammers going on downstairs as I type this\u2014it will be worth it in the end, I know!)\nFantastic that your novel is finished. Wonderful accomplishment. Congratulations!\nThank you! Nearly finished reading it through, although the dust and rubble is starting to take over. :/\nHelen Jones on April 4, 2016 at 2:11 am\nCongratulations, Louise! Fantastic news, I\u2019m so pleased for you \ud83d\ude42 Really looking forward to reading the finished book.\nAnd I love your \u2018fairy light\u2019 photos \u2013 they are just magical, a celebration in lights of your accomplishment \ud83d\ude42\nThanks, Helen! I\u2019ve read on from the rough section, and it seems to have been only those 50 pages or so\u2014I\u2019m enjoying reading my story again! As I said, I wrote most of those sections a couple of years ago, and I just wasn\u2019t experienced enough then to trust Ida\u2019s voice. I\u2019ll have to read over them again to check, but I think it\u2019s fixed. x\nHelen Jones on April 5, 2016 at 12:44 am\nYay! I love that \ud83d\ude42 It\u2019s wonderful when you can see concrete progress in your own work \u2013 that\u2019s when perseverance in the face of all the obstacles writing can throw at you really pays off \ud83d\ude42\nI agree. It takes perseverance, that\u2019s for sure. I love that Ira Glass quote on this\u2014You probably know it, but if you don\u2019t, let me know and I\u2019ll send a link. I won\u2019t quote it here, because it\u2019s long. You don\u2019t realise you\u2019re making progress until you look back and re-read something you were once proud of and realise how amateur it is! In a few years, I\u2019ll probably do the same with my current writing. x\nHelen Jones on April 5, 2016 at 9:52 pm\nYes, I know the quote you mean (the one about no-one tells this to beginners). I feel the same way about my own work \u2013 it took me two years to get Oak and Mist to a point where I was happy with it, and even now I look at it, a year later, and there are a couple of things I could change. But I won\u2019t \u2013 it\u2019s where I was at that time as an artist. I\u2019m glad I didn\u2019t publish the original version though! \ud83d\ude00\nLouise Allan on April 5, 2016 at 10:04 pm\nYes, that\u2019s the quote. I sometimes want to delete some of my older blog posts, but I don\u2019t because, as you say, it\u2019s where I was at that time. We\u2019re kind to kids when they\u2019re learning (or we should be!), but we\u2019re not as kind to adults, yet we\u2019re also learning. And good on us for stepping outside our comfort zones and taking a risk. Let\u2019s hope it pays off\u2014although, in many ways, it already has. \ud83d\ude42\nHelen Jones on April 5, 2016 at 10:32 pm\nYes, good on us, exactly \ud83d\ude42 It has paid off \u2013 I\u2019m so glad I decided to take the plunge. Not sure what I\u2019d be doing now if I wasn\u2019t writing.\nI know I wouldn\u2019t be as happy. I wouldn\u2019t quite go as far as to say writing saved my life, but the best thing I ever did for myself was give my childhood a voice. As for writing fiction, most of the time I feel as if I\u2019m just playing the imaginary games I did as a child. Major rewrites aside, of course! ????\narunquiltha68 on April 4, 2016 at 6:59 am\nCongratulations Louise! I have just finished plugging up a hole and editing my second book, ready for publishing. Fabulous photography too!!\nThank you, Leeanda! I\u2019ve been following your blog and your cover is beautiful! It must be a wonderful feeling to be so close to publication. Best wishes. xx\nKooky Chic on April 4, 2016 at 11:32 am\nCongratulations Louise, what a huge achievement\nThank you very much, Kooky! \ud83d\ude42\nMichelle Weaver (@pinkypoinker) on April 4, 2016 at 12:25 pm\nYes. Walking gets that blood flowing to the brain doesn\u2019t it. Congratulations Louise. It\u2019s fabulous. And so are those photographs by the way. Is there no end to your talent and ability?\nWalking is my go-to exercise for clearing the brain, as I\u2019m sure swimming or running is for others. I solve all of my problems on my walks! I\u2019m glad you liked the photos. Thank you. x\nMargaret on April 4, 2016 at 2:20 pm\nCongratulations, Louise. That really is something. Kudos for being able to see what was lacking and then doing something about it.\nThanks, Margaret! As Ernest Hemingway said, \u201cThe most essential gift for a good writer is a built-in, shockproof, shit detector\u201d. As much as our inner critic gets in the way at times, we really need it when editing. I guess the difference is to not write the whole novel off as bad just because of one, fixable flaw. Thank you for visiting, and I hope your writing is going well. x",

        "raw_content": "Editor\u2019s Note: The age of marriage in the United States is between 16-18 years of age. Underage marriages and pregnancies- wherever they are taking place \u2013 are indefensible practices. The Law must protect the rights of women and girls and defend them from predatory practices that in infringe on their basic fundamental rights. Forcing girls into underage marriages or allowing predators (refer to the horrifying sexual assault charges against Bill Cosby) to go scot free is unacceptable.\nFew days back I saw few feminists making hue and cry over a girl (of 11 or 12) having a baby. Mental and intellectual slavery to Western precepts, culture and ethics is nothing new to people living in East as it is considered modern and fashionable to use Western terms to impress others like misogyny, pedophile, homophobia, patriarchy etc without going into details or fundamentals of Western moral compass and ethical system. \u201cAge of consent\u201d is one such topic of discourse used by feminists to attack Islam. They try to portray that \u201cage of consent\u201d is some universal phenomenon and only Muslims deviate from what is some standard practice all over the world. No, that is just a blatant lie and \u201cage of consent\u201d differ from culture to culture, nation to nation and here is a chart depicting legal of marriage in some countries. In US (the moral Mecca for these feminists) the minimum legal age of marriage for a girl is 12, yes just 12. I am sharing it just as a point of reference but not as a bench mark and I wont care if they lower it further or increase it even more. For a Muslim the benchmark in such ethical matters will remain Koran and teachings of Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him and his progeny) and his Ahl al-Bait.\nhttp://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/the-lowest-age-you-can-legally-get-married-around-the-world-10415517.html\nGiving birth to a child at an early age is not unfamiliar or unknown phenomenon in the West as well and several such cases are reported in recent years. A girl of 13 gave birth to triplets in Dominical Republic though legal age of consent is 18 in that country. In another case a girl of 11 gave birth to child in UK, and then again when she was just 12. In yet another case a girl of 12 gave birth to a baby, fathered by her 13 year old boy friend.\nIsn\u2019t it strange that the guys who celebrate and appreciate homosexuality, pre-marital and extra-marital relations have problem with the institution of marriage ?\nTagsfeminism\n\u0627\u0641\u063a\u0627\u0646 \u0637\u0627\u0644\u0628\u0627\u0646 \u06a9\u06d2 \u0646\u0627\u0626\u0628 \u0627\u0645\u06cc\u0631 \u0645\u0644\u0627 \u0627\u062e\u062a\u0631 \u0645\u062d\u0645\u062f \u0645\u0646\u0635\u0648\u0631 \u06a9\u06d2 \u06c1\u0627\u062a\u06be\u0648\u06ba \u0645\u0644\u0627 \u0639\u0645\u0631 \u06a9\u06d2 \u0642\u062a\u0644 \u06a9\u06cc \u0627\u0637\u0644\u0627\u0639\u0627\u062a \u2013 \u062e\u0631\u0645 \u0632\u06a9\u06cc\nWhy is it important to criticize the denigration of women by Junaid Jamshed? \u2013 by Ali Abbas Taj",

        "raw_content": "Media : Who\u2019s afraid of the Big Bad Remake?\nSometimes, the scares are sweeter the second (or third) time around\nBy no stretch of the imagination am I what you would call a fan of horror films, and yet, I find myself scratching my head over how many critics (as well as many so-called fans) bemoan the recent resurgence of horror-film remakes. For one, critics have liked so few horror films throughout history that it\u2019s almost senseless to listen to their opinions since they very clearly don\u2019t get the genre, and second, remakes are as common within this genre as dead virgins.\nConsider some of the greatest horror films of the last 30 years: Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1978), The Thing (1982), The Fly (1986), Evil Dead II (1987), and The Ring (2002). These movies are almost universally hailed as great both within and without the horror genre and, more importantly, they\u2019re all remakes. Some of them, like Invasion, The Thing, and Evil Dead II, are even arguably better than the originals \u2014 which, by the way, today\u2019s horror fans don\u2019t even consider when uttering these titles.\nRemakes, you see, are not inherently sucky, as the critics and film purists will have you believe. In fact, many of our favorite films are remakes, like The Maltese Falcon (1941), Ben-Hur (1959), The Magnificent Seven (1960), and Ocean\u2019s Eleven (2001). The surprising thing is, even as critics attack George Lucas for not being able to leave well-enough alone with Star Wars, they applaud Cecil B. DeMille and Alfred Hitchcock, who actually remade their own films: The Ten Commandments (1923, 1956) and The Man Who Knew Too Much (1934, 1956). Even Sam Raimi knew he could get The Evil Dead (1981) more right, and that\u2019s why six years later he made Evil Dead II \u2014 the same movie, just better.\nOf course, lists don\u2019t amount to damning evidence against critics of remakes. What\u2019s most important to note is that today\u2019s filmgoers are almost universally unaware that there is an original The Ten Commandments or Ocean\u2019s Eleven. Even fewer have seen The Man Who Knew Too Much, either version. So, if the only people who know of the originals are the critics and a handful of film-theory grad students, then why can\u2019t film studios remake often-forgotten, often-out-of-date films into something relevant to today\u2019s audiences? You don\u2019t have to convince the studios of this, obviously. All the tickets you buy while grumbling about remakes continue to encourage them of a truth so many are unwilling to accept: Remakes are not always a bad thing, for ticket sales or for fans.\nThere is also the argument that calling remakes \u201cremakes\u201d is actually a misnomer because, in truth, they are, as all remakes have always been (well, except Gus Van Sant\u2019s Psycho), reinterpretations of story ideas and themes so that contemporary audiences can discover a story they would have never bothered with beforehand. This is a valid point, since I don\u2019t really remember Vincent Price\u2019s cock falling off in the original The Fly, or King Kong duking it out with three T-Rexes in his first shot at the big screen. Purists will insist moviegoers should just rediscover the originals, but, as evidenced by the fact that they make a regular habit of praising remakes when they approve of them, their opinion can\u2019t be trusted to be anything other than hypocritical.\nNo, the truth of the matter is, films like this week\u2019s The Omen, a remake of a 1976 classic, have little chance of wooing anyone other than the millions of moviegoers who just love horror films and, let\u2019s face it, most horror films suck to a certain degree. Horror fans will usually admit it, too; they\u2019re there for the thrills and inventively wicked deaths. The Omen, however, will present an interesting study in the horror fan\u2019s willingness to endure remakes, since most horror fans have seen the original and, well, love it. Why remake it, then? Wait until you see the box-office receipts next Sunday and you\u2019ll have your answer. Horror fans need horror, and sometimes the remakes get it right. Just don\u2019t let the shitty ones like The Blob (1988), The Haunting (1999), or House of Wax (2005) bring down the whole big show.\nEven worse is when unbelievably bad originals are remade into even worse fare, like 2005\u2019s The Fog and this year\u2019s When a Stranger Calls. Then again, sometimes unbelievably bad originals are remade into something remarkably better, like this year\u2019s The Hills Have Eyes. Don\u2019t act all surprised if The Omen the remake delivers the goods, too. But hey, even if it doesn\u2019t, there are plenty of other remakes to look forward to, like the upcoming updates of The Fly, Day of the Dead, The Blob, and The Creature from the Black Lagoon and, more interestingly, Benicio del Toro as The Wolf Man in 2008. At least one of these is sure to be brilliant.",

It was very empowering. I had control over my life and I had options. \u2013 Jerene Dildine\nMeet Christine Dolan, a \u201ctrafficking\u201d fetishist so delusional she expects us to believe that the wildly-inflated \u201cslavery\u201d estimates are too low by at least an order of magnitude:\n\u2026The numbers are increasing instead of decreasing\u2026President Trump confidently noted the number of slaves globally as 27 million\u2026That number was inaccurate when it was anecdotally concocted years ago by Kevin Bales\u2026It is a bogus number. With mass migrations, internet generated trafficking, and sophisticated terrorist networks financially fueled by human trafficking, that number was exponentially higher when concocted, and more so, today\u2026The heartbreaking truth of the human trafficking sex trade is that women and girls are repeatedly raped, and get pregnant multiple times. [A US State Department RFP] creates a loophole that could permit multiple serial abortions to be paid for with U.S. funds. This is a perverse result that benefits pimps and traffickers by returning their \u201cproductive assets\u201d to them for further pimping\u2026the\u2026RFP as currently written could create a giant Fund that supports the aggressive \u201cpro-sex work\u201d stance of many organizations and governments around the world\u2026[it] would permit an organization that promotes prostitution\u2026to receive funds as long as they don\u2019t use USG money to promote prostitution and its decriminalization, legalization, and unionization. This would position a pro-prostitution organization to build its stature and influence by rescuing children from sex trafficking while simultaneously using that influence to promote older child and adult prostitution as a legitimate form of labor\u2026\nFor that number to be \u201cexponentially higher\u201d, literally 5% or more of the world\u2019s population would need to be \u201cslaves\u201d. Methinks Dolan needs to put down her Hitachi and pick up her calculator before submitting another such absurd masturbatory fantasy for publication.\nIt\u2019s interesting to see an article which could be synopsized as \u201cOMG an invasion of foreign whores!\u201d nevertheless admit that sex work is work:\nRefugees and illegal immigrants are increasingly engaged in prostitution in Finland. While the exact extent of the shadow market remains to be estimated, this phenomenon is getting increasingly popular, as selling sex has proven to be a real way of earning money\u2026about 70 percent of all workers in the sex market are foreigners, but recently asylum seekers and illegal immigrants have joined their ranks\u2026migrants in Finland often have two alternatives, to seek employment in the shadow economy for a measly pay of several euros per hour or go into prostitution, which is paid much more generously\u2026\nEvery outed sex worker or client should sue the person or institution who did it:\nA Denver district court jury awarded a former escort $1.7 million in damages\u2026after concluding that one of her clients, a high end Denver attorney, was guilty of outrageous conduct and invading the woman\u2019s privacy by \u201couting\u201d her to her family, friends and colleagues\u2026In November of 2013, she was contacted\u2026by Sean Saxon, a Denver attorney who specialized in drug and medical device litigation\u2026within a short time it turned romantic\u2026But\u2026Saxon\u2026became angry and violent at times, and would threaten to expose her\u2026Dildine broke off the relationship and asked Saxon to leave her alone\u2026he refused, continuing to stalk her and threaten her with exposure. Eventually, Saxon followed through on his threats, sending a letter to Dildine\u2019s mother and father, brother and other relatives describing her life as a prostitute, including revealing sexual photos of her, and online reviews of her sexual services. He sent the same packet to her classmates and teacher at a Denver aesthetician school she attended, describing her as \u201ca mid- level prostitute. I have attached her escort profile, some of her twitter posts, and some of the on- line reviews she has received for her activities,\u201d wrote Saxon. \u201cI should warn you that much of it is rather pathetically pornographic\u201d\u2026\nStenographer parrots clueless cop\u2019s weird & ignorant masturbatory fantasies:\n\u2026According to Madera [California] Police Sgt. Daniel Foss, the department has been dealing with the sex industry on the Internet, and is facing the challenges Internet-driven prostitution poses. \u201cIt\u2019s made it more difficult for the fact prostitutes used to be contained in one area fairly well,\u201d Foss said, \u201cand if they went outside that area. [sic] it was immediately obvious to everybody. Now they\u2019re everywhere\u201d\u2026These women, Foss said, operate by an \u201cin-call/out-call\u201d system. In an out-call solicitation, the girl, usually delivered by her pimp, will come to the client; in an in-call solicitation, the client makes the order, and goes to the girl. It\u2019s common during an in-call visit, according to Foss, for the pimp to wait outside for the client to finish\u2026on the Internet\u2026victims of sex trafficking are able to be hidden by their pimps. They are also able to advertise them as adults\u2026\nYou can hear the fapping as Foss fantasizes that every sex worker has a \u201cpimp\u201d lurking about; the thought clearly excites him almost as much as his delusion that in the past, whores were \u201cobvious to everybody\u201d if we wandered out of the ghettos he imagines we were confined to.\nNot just a feminist, but an \u201canti-trafficking\u201d activist:\nMany of those working in America\u2019s spas and massage parlors are Asian immigrants\u2026and\u2026many\u2026police departments routinely conduct raids on spas and massage parlors. These raids, purported to curb human trafficking, have resulted in the arrests of many Asian immigrants\u2026Some of these immigrants reside in the spa in which they work. When the spa is shut down, they can be rendered both jobless and homeless. For those who are the sole income provider for their families, they and their families are left destitute\u2026they are\u2026swept up and arrested indiscriminately and they become deportable, regardless of whether or not they are documented immigrants. The charge\u2026is \u201cunauthorized practice of a profession\u201d\u2026a felony\u2026In the era of travel bans and Trump\u2019s crackdown\u2026even some supporters of immigrants are latching onto the \u201cgood immigrant\u201d vs. \u201cbad immigrant\u201d narrative in an effort to save the so-called good immigrants\u2026mass arrest is not the answer\u2026\nAs the pogroms continue over the next few years, keep essays like this, appearing in mainstream media, in mind. We are winning, and this will eventually all be a bad memory just as anti-gay pogroms mostly are now.\nPlayboy needs to do a lot more articles like this:\n\u2026in August 2015, Amnesty International\u2026announced it would join the effort to decriminalize sex work. In May 2016, the group released its official policy paper on the issue. The 17-page document states that continuing to treat sex work as a crime infringes on the human rights of consenting adults\u2026Patricia Schulz, a United Nations gender-equality expert\u2026lays out the cost of ignoring those recommendations. \u201cWhen prostitution is criminalized, sex workers risk being abused\u2026They risk being [raped by] police workers. If they\u2019re brought to detention, they might be raped by other inmates\u2026There\u2019s a whole series of violations of their rights arising from the situation.\u201d This insight comes after years of hearing from sex workers in many countries, studying the issue and, she says, \u201ctraveling a long way\u201d from her initial view on the matter\u2026\nBig Sister (#631)\nIs Iceland just going to recycle this story every spring?\nThe number of prostitutes in Iceland has increased substantially recently, according to Inspector Snorri Birgisson, at the Reykjav\u00edk\u2026Police Department. That is evident\u2026from websites where escort services are advertised\u2026The number of registrations at one website has increased five-fold in a year and a half. Snorri believes there is a strong connection between the increased influx of tourists in the country and prostitution. This, he said, is the dark side of tourism, which must be discussed. He stated that the women involved in prostitution now come from other countries than before\u2026\nThough the story doesn\u2019t say it because he\u2019s a cop, this would mean his victim was no more than seven when he first raped her:\n[Detroit cop] Thomas Pedersen\u2026pleaded guilty to four counts of second-degree criminal sexual conduct\u2026[and] sentenced to 42 months to 15 years in prison. He will have to register as a sex offender when he is released and will be under life-time electronic monitoring\u2026Pedersen\u2026[admitted to raping] a girl younger than 13 for nearly six years\u2026\nWhy yes, I do get tired of saying \u201cI told you so.\u201d Thanks for asking!\n\u2026the Olympic Games was a highly anticipated business opportunity in Brazil\u2026Yet many of the sex workers who anxiously awaited the boon from foreign clientele found that it did not materialise. Only a few benefited financially from the event, while [prohibitionists]\u2026urged authorities to crack down on \u201csex tourism\u201d. [One brothel\u2019s]\u2026manager \u2026said\u2026\u201dit is an illusion that FIFA or the Olympics are good for business. This is a myth. Some of the biggest [sex-related] businesses in Ipanema went bankrupt during the games. And now it is worse\u201d\u2026Instead, what surfaced was a heightened security presence in the street, provided in part by Centro Presente \u2013 a quasi-public police force, partially funded by the local commercial and business association\u2026\n\u201cFreed\u2026said\u2026\u2019I don\u2019t want to see heroin-injection sites\u2019,\u201d is this whole thing in a nutshell:\nAn initiative to ban safe-injection sites in King County [Washington] was announced Thursday. The proposed initiative requires signatures from 47,443 valid county voters to qualify for the November ballot, said its chief sponsor\u2026Joshua Freed\u2026Freed\u2026said\u2026\u201cI don\u2019t want to see heroin-injection sites\u201d\u2026He said he\u2019d prefer [cops to harass doctors who]\u2026prescrib[e] opiates\u2026The initiative would ban public consumption of heroin and all federal Schedule I drugs except marijuana\u2026[another supporter of the ban is politician Mark] Miloscia\u2026an outspoken opponent of safe-injection sites\u2026[who] unsuccessfully propos[ed] a bill in the Legislature to ban them. He also wrote a letter urging the U.S. Department of Justice to intervene and stop the sites. Miloscia\u2026[is also] an opponent of marijuana legalization and an advocate of tighter restrictions on alcohol\u2026[he believes] we should \u201cstigmatize people who get hooked on drugs to get into treatment\u201d\u2026He argued that hard-drug users need to face the threat of criminal sanctions to be steered into treatment\u2026\nI\u2019d love to be wrong once in a while:\nMy Red Light was supposed to be a brothel run by sex workers. Well, that failed\u2026There\u2019s an entire board of so called \u201cexperts\u201d in a \u201cCouncil of Supervision\u201d who have the real power and control over this brothel.

But the agency does expect some passengers to consider the examination unusual. In fact, the TSA decided to inform local police in case anyone calls to report [a TSA agent sexually assaulting her]\u2026The physical search, for those selected to have one, is what the agency described as a more \u201ccomprehensive\u201d screening, replacing five separate kinds of pat-downs it previously used. The decision to alert local and airport police raises a question of just how intimate the agency\u2019s employees may get\u2026\nCriminal defense attorney Scott Greenfield had this to say about it:\n\u2026Put aside, for the moment, that TSA agents are not law enforcement officers, but rather the nice folks who you last met inquiring whether you wanted to supersize, now wearing blue shirts to create the impression of important authority\u2026the way to improve [their inept performance] is to direct these pizza lovers to engage in conduct that would, under most other circumstances, constitute crimes.

This can lead to someone getting fined again for not paying up the first time. And again. And again. One ticket leads to a vicious cycle that can sink someone for life. With each of these encounters, someone\u2019s record piles up \u2014 giving [cops] more reason, in their view, to stop him or her, because they recognize the person, or perhaps see the person\u2019s record when running a license plate\u2026And with each of these stops, people are exposed to more instances in which a police encounter could go tragically wrong. And it happens disproportionately to poor people of color.

When The Empire Strikes Back was released in theaters in Europe, it had a short film attached to it call Black Angel. The film was lost to time, until now. Those who remember it say it played wonderfully with Empire tonally speaking. I suggest grabbing a copy and then watching Empire because\u2026why not?\nThe mythological drama follows a Knight returning from the wars to find his land destroyed and his family dead from a great sickness. Returning to the wars with nothing to live for, he falls into a river and is dragged down by the weight of his armour. At the last breath, he manages to pull off his armoured helmet. Swimming to the surface he ascends into a strange land where he meets a maiden bound to the Black Angel. He vows to save her and fulfil his Knights quest to rescue a maiden.

        "raw_content": "Why Having a Marketing Strategy Has Huge Importance in Business\nThe importance of marketing principles is most evident, when at the end of the fiscal year, companies come up with their large net profit margins. All thanks to the efforts put into marketing, besides work in other departments.\n\"For years, we thought of ourselves as a production-oriented company, meaning we put all our emphasis on designing and manufacturing the product. But now we understand that the most important thing we do is market the product. We've come around to saying that Nike is a marketing-oriented company, and the product is our most important marketing tool.\"\nThese words, by Phil Knight, founder and CEO, of one of the finest companies, Nike Inc., that has excelled in marketing, ever since its inception, highlights the difference it can make in establishing the brand image of a product. It is a tool that connects companies and consumers.\nIt is due to marketing that consumers get an opportunity to know about various products that are available in the market. It fosters healthy competition among brands and this increases the level of competence among firms.\nConsumers are able to enjoy better products and they are made available at affordable prices. It helps in generating revenue for many companies, either directly or indirectly.\nConsider advertising, which is a subset of marketing. It influences television, newspapers, and hoardings. With the rise of the Internet, online marketing has evolved to be a multibillion dollar industry. If there was no marketing, only the dominant companies will exist and they can move on to dominate the prices and establish a monopoly over the product.\nWith large number of companies fighting for quality, the consumer can demand low price and high quality. In other words, a balanced market is created due to healthy competition.\nMarketing also helps in product innovation, design enhancement, and improves quality, so that consumers buy only the latest products. This drives the firms to focus on research and development areas. Not surprisingly, hefty amounts are invested in the research and development of products.\nMarketing Strategy Importance\nA marketing plan is essential, to grab the market segment, before any other player captures it. What are the target groups? Which segment of the market presents higher revenue-generating opportunities?\nThese are some of the questions that marketing teams ponder over, in the pursuit of achieving a good plan. This is where the value of market research comes into picture. The market research team analyzes and understands the requirements of the consumers.\nIt conducts polls and researches to comes up with data and statistics that help to logically target a market. Marketing mix elements also hold importance. These elements are the sets of factors that help firms achieve their sales targets. It takes the four Ps of marketing into account, which are Product, Price, Promotion, and Place of distribution.\nMarketing turns a product into a brand. Therefore, for the survival of any company in today's competitive business arena, it has to be on top of the priority list. Not surprisingly, the new adage for firms is 'Advertise or Perish'.",

        "raw_content": "Bernie and Hillary\u2019s Numbers Expose the Republicans\u2019 Presidential Dilemma\nDecember 23, 2015 January 23, 2016 daniel\tBernie and Hillary\u2019s Numbers Expose the Republicans\u2019 Presidential Dilemma, Republicans are Doing Something Wrong, the Democrats have gained 5.424 million additional voters over the past decade, the GOP has lost around 11 million members in the last decade, The Numbers Show Us Republicans Cannot Win the White House, The Shrinking Republican Party\nThe Republicans\u2019 problems in the Presidential race go far deeper than too many candidates or Donald Trump\u2019s disruptive run. The available numbers show us that no Republican candidate simply has the votes necessary to get elected President.\nThe number two candidate in the Democratic race, U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders (I-Vermont), has around 30.6% of the support in that primary, and the Republican frontrunner, Trump, has around 30.4% of the support in his contest, Philly.com writer Will Bunch pointed out. That might make it sound as if Trump and Sanders are evenly matched until we do a little math and the huge obstacle the GOP faces in the 2016 elections becomes apparent.\nA Pew Research Center poll discovered that 32% of Americans identified themselves as Democrats and 23% of Americans identified as Republicans in 2014. Since the U.S. population was 318.9 million in 2014, that means there are around 73.34 million Republicans and 102.048 million Democrats in the United States.\nIt also means that Bernie Sanders has around 31.22 million supporters and Donald Trump has around 22.29 million supporters. Get the picture, folks? The second-most popular Democrat, Sanders, has nearly 10 million more supporters than the most popular Republican.\nThat\u2019s particularly bad for the GOP because Bernie is the number two Democratic candidate. The frontrunner, Hillary, has the support of around 56.3% of Democrats, or 57.45 million people, according to Real Clear Politics. Since most of those supporting Sanders can be relied upon to vote for Hillary if she wins the primary, that means the Democrats have an advantage of 30 million votes coming out of the gate.\nThe Shrinking Republican Party\nThe numbers show that the Republicans have a huge disadvantage going into the contest and that disadvantage is growing. As recently as 2004, 29% of Americans identified themselves as Republicans and 33% as Democrats, according to Pew.\nIf those figures are correct, it means that the GOP has lost around 11 million members in the last decade. The U.S. population was around 292.8 million in 2004 and 29% of 292.8 is 84.912 million.\nIt also means that the Democrats have gained 5.424 million additional voters over the past decade. In 2004, around 33% of Americans, or 96.624 million people, identified as Democrats. When 96.624 million is subtracted from 102.048 million, the result is 5.424 million.\nEven though the number of Democrats is statistically smaller, the actual number of Democrats has increased while the number of Republicans has fallen. It looks as if the Republicans have lost a great deal of popular support.\nThe Numbers Show Us Republicans Cannot Win the White House\nIt also means that the GOP is not in the position to win a presidential election without substantial independent support, but the Democrats are. All Hillary (or Bernie) has to do to reach the White House is mobilize the base, something that is not that hard.\nTo win, a Republican would have to achieve genuine popular approval on the level of a Ronald Reagan or a Richard Nixon. That does not seem possible when Democrats have a 30 million vote advantage going out of the gate.\nBasically, an unpopular Democrat can run a lackluster campaign and win, which explains Obama in 2012. To win, a Republican would have to be incredibly popular and run a nearly flawless campaign that catches the popular imagination.\nRepublicans are Doing Something Wrong\nThese numbers also demonstrate something else \u2013 the Republicans are doing something very wrong. The Democrats are still able to hold support of their base. The Republicans are losing theirs, and it could mean that Republican voters are dying off, as some demographers have noted, or that Americans are simply disillusioned with the GOP.\nOne thing is clear: the Republicans will have to figure what\u2019s going wrong here if they want to see one of their party in the Oval Office again. The GOP has become America\u2019s minority party, even though it controls both houses of Congress. It is also hard to see how the Republicans can keep their Congressional majority if the demographic trends uncovered by Pew continue.\nThe numbers show us that the Republican Party has some serious problems. Its leaders need to address those problems, and now, if they want to keep winning elections.\n\u2190 Could Sanders Split the Democratic Party?\nDoes SolarCity Make Money? \u2192",

        "raw_content": "When I was in Bangladesh, sailing around the Sundarbans in the Sea of Bengal, I spent a lot of time on deck with some very interesting people. Over the course of three days, one man, a 65 year old retired and well-educated Bangladeshi, cruised around the boat asking people who they wanted to win the American preliminary election. He loved Bernie Sanders and was propagating his campaign any chance he got.\nWhen he finally sat next to me, the only American on the boat, he crossed his bare feet and began the same conversation. I told him I had noticed a dramatic support of Sanders from many friends and people my age whom I respect. It was all I ever saw on my social media and as I felt myself wondering if I should support him, too. He was definitely popular and at a first glance seemed to have policies I liked.\nBut, I told him, I really want Hilary to win. I want to see a woman in the office. His response was one I\u2019ve heard since I was in middle school. I shouldn\u2019t vote for her just because of her sex. Out of politeness and the patience to examine my own feelings I moved the conversation to my opinions on the general American political system.\nTwo months later, with the limited amount of certainty anyone can have of American political candidates, I think they are both good options. But I have also seen an incredible amount of malicious posts on social media criticizing Clinton for things irrelevant to her experience, policies or credibility. I\u2019ve read articles where both women and men shame women for siding with either Clinton or Sanders. And it seems to me that a lot of people are quick to belittle and ignore the barriers women face in our society.\nTo say that a woman shouldn\u2019t vote for Clinton just because she is a woman, is kind of like saying that we should forget about the feminist struggle in America for the last 100 years. It\u2019s also a clear reminder that the obstacles for women aren\u2019t taken as seriously as the obstacles pertaining to both sexes. Isn\u2019t it natural to want a candidate who you can identify with and who you think will fight for you? I\u2019m not saying any female candidate would do, but as I have witnessed Clinton\u2019s struggles as a woman and people\u2019s harsh criticisms of her for fighting to achieve success in politics, she resonates with me and the struggles I face in my own life.\nI think what people mean to say when they say I shouldn\u2019t vote for Clinton just because she is a woman is that I should be informed about the candidates. Yet I feel that men are never held to the same accountability for supporting a male candidate. Gender gets to be irrelevant for straight men, but it\u2019s a big deal for the rest of us. To say that a person shouldn\u2019t consider Clinton\u2019s sex in this political race is a tactic to pressure women into silence and/or compliance. Her being a woman is a big deal. If she became the next president, it would force tolerance and in a time when women are still fighting for rights over their own bodies in both their personal lives and in the work space, it\u2019s imperative.\nDo I think Sanders will also fight for women\u2019s rights? Yes. But I think having Clinton in the office is a greater victory for women and sends a much louder message. I may not win the cool vote on this one, but frankly countless feminists have fought for me to be able to vote for whoever I want.\nPosted in Tall Tales, TravelTagged Bangladesh, South Asia, The Bern in Bangladesh",

        "raw_content": "Blood and Rage : A Cultural History of Terrorism\nAuthor(s): Michael Burleigh\nA far-reaching history of terrorism across the world from its beginnings to the modern-day, from the highly acclaimed author of Sacred Causes and Earthly Powers. The paperback will include new material, covering the elections in Pakistan, the death of Benazir Bhutto and the lasting impact of these events.\nBasing his study on a wide range of sources and key players from the world of terrorism, Burleigh explains and defines the meaning of terrorism and marks its progression from its hard to trace beginnings to the modern-day. Burleigh takes us from the origins of terrorism in the Irish Republican Brotherhood - the precursors of the IRA - on to look at Tsarist Russia where the 'intelligentsia' launched attacks on organs of state, and left-wing fighting against 'Fascism' and 'Nazism' in the 70's and 80's in western Germany and Italy. But such nationalist terrrorism has in turn been eclipsed by international jihadist violence, largely driven by widespread resentment of the successful societes of the West.Burleigh explores the background and the milieu of people engaged in careers of political violence, and examines their various mindsets as revealed by their actions rather than words.\nAuthor : Michael Burleigh",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Blog \u00bb Blogging \u00bb 5 Actionable steps towards writing a great blog post with WordPress\nMay 5, 2017 Alex Blogging\n5 Actionable steps towards writing a great blog post with WordPress\nBlogging is more than just smashing a few words together\nAre you ready to publish some great blog posts? Blogging is more than just smashing words together on your keyboard, it's a way of life and finally there is recognition for the power of content marketing. Writing equally great blog posts isn't going to happen all the time, but with the help of planning \u2013 you can adjust the success of your WordPress website or blog ratio significantly.\nHave a solid plan when you start blogging\nWhile writing articles, you are very likely always hoping to hit the nail in the head with the subject you've chosen, the angle you've decided upon, and perhaps even the length of the post you're going to produce. These are all important factors that come into play. It's a lot easier to write a short blog post, than it is to write a long one. However, perhaps long-form content does have its advantages.\nSearch engine rankings and average content length in words. (Image Source: serpiq.com)\nFrom the above screenshot, you can clearly see the appeal that there is for long-form content, but without proper planning and thinking ahead \u2013 long-form pieces are usually going to look quite messy, and in some cases even unnecessary. If you have already written several dozens of such posts, you've come to realize that all you need is a solid plan, and then the ability to stick to it.\nStep 1 \u2013 Pick the topic for your blog post\nStep 2 \u2013 Give your topic an outline\nStep 3 \u2013 Begin the process of writing your blog post\nStep 4 \u2013 Editing your blog post\nStep 5 \u2013 Publish and share your blog post\nWhat are you going to write about? It's going to be difficult to write about something that you're not familiar with, so this part of the whole writing process should be taken very seriously. In the end \u2013 it's going to be the start and the finish of your post, so you should take certain things into consideration.\nIn general it is recommended that you avoid writing about topics and subjects that you're not particularly experienced with. While it may prove to be a good experience at first, you'll realize at some point that you can say much more about the topics you love, and constantly interact with. So, pick your choice of topic wisely. Make sure you feel good about it, and want to write about it as well. The feeling should be similar to knowing that you're going to help many people with your selection.\nYou've got the topic at your hand \u2013 that's great. Now, it's time to outline your topic and make it look more like a blog post. This is an important step, because not doing this can be very frustrating later on. You'll either be struggling for words to add, or have too many and that will cause confusion.\nWrite down all the important things you want to touch on the particular topic you chose, then do some research and mix things up a little. You may also take this post as an example of how to construct a great blog post for your website. It's quite easy and simple, but it clearly works.\nOk, now you've got a solid looking draft, you've got the topic you want to write about, and you have the outline. It's time to fill in the blanks. It's time to do research, reading, questioning, verifying of statements and so on. In this next phase of writing, you're pushing out everything you know and can learn about your topic of choice. The goal should be to write an informative and valuable blog post.\nIt's all about getting those words out there, at this point \u2013 nothing else but saying everything you think should be on your mind. Even if it doesn't feel right at this moment, just keep writing. Because during the next step you can carefully fine tune your article and make the necessary changes.\nIt's not written on a wall, but many bloggers and writers believe that going over a written blog post for the second time is mandatory. This is true, because it gives the blogger a fresh perspective of what he has just written. In the best case, this should be done with a day's worth of time inbetween.\nEditing your blog post is like verifying everything to yourself, having taken a brake from the topic for a while, and then returning to it. This proceedure will give you a lot more new ideas and perspectives of how to tackle a specific part of the blog post letting you edit or re-write certain parts if needed.\n\u201cThe only way to win at content marketing is for the reader to say, This was written specifically for me.\u201d\nIt sounds quite easy, right? Well, you would be surprised to learn how many people overlook the simplicity of blogging. In the end, what matters is going to be the value that the reader is going to get out of having read your piece of content. It's always going to be about the content value. The last thing left to do is to hit that Publish button. Remember to share your post with friends, and if you can \u2013 remember to amplify your content with things like images, videos and quotes; it always works!\nWrapping up: Writing a great blog post\nIn just five short steps, you've found the way towards writing a great blog post. Easy to consume, actionable, and provides some insight into the blogging process of professional and expert bloggers. Less is more, simplicity is key. All these things come to mind when thinking of a great blog post. What are your thoughts about blogging? What is your blogging process?

        "title": "Dream Slate by Synthesist | Music and Media Focus",
        "raw_content": "CD: Dream Slate\nArtists: Synthesist\nWe\u2019ve all heard the expression about \u201cmaking dreams into reality,\u201d well, that is exactly what Christopher Pearre (aka Synthesist) has done with this CD. It all began with a dream he had in which he was meditating by the ocean and heard music in the air and he opened his eyes to see it falling from the sky in prismatic colors and intricate geometric patterns. In the dream, a large wave rushed over him and when he sat up in bed, he heard the wave rushing back into the sea. In that moment, Christopher had an epiphany and went to his synthesizers, closed his eyes and recreated the music that he had just experienced in his dream. Hence the album\u2019s title: \u201cDream Slate.\u201d\nLike many recording artists who play new age and ambient electronic music, Christopher was influenced by the progressive rock of Emerson Lake & Palmer, Yes, and Genesis in the 70\u2019s, as well as the emerging instrumental synthesizer sounds of Tangerine Dream, Jean-Michel Jarre, Kraftwerk, and Synergy. Although he has been evolving in this genre for many years, in 2003 a near-death experience in the hospital forever changed his life and he began an intense spiritual quest that included meditation, learning about chakras, Kundalini energy, Tantra, and unconditional love, all of which brought a new dimension and intention to his music.\nOne area of study which has impacted him deeply and which can be heard on this album is the concept of Solfeggio Frequencies. According to Christopher: \u201cThese original sound frequencies were apparently used in ancient Gregorian Chants, such as the great hymn to St. John the Baptist, along with others that church authorities say were lost centuries ago. The chants and their special tones were believed to impart tremendous spiritual blessings when sung in harmony during religious masses.\u201d As new age music pioneer Steven Halpern is fond of saying, \u201cChants didn\u2019t come about by chance.\u201d Christopher has written an interesting article on the subject which can be read on his website for those wanting more detailed information.\nEach song on the album was created with a specific intention based on our chakras and the Solfeggio Frequencies. As can be inferred by the name he records under, the primary instruments are synthesizers. Christopher\u2019s early influences are evident and fans of Tangerine Dream, Jarre, Vangelis, etc. will find familiar territory being charted here. Although he is using contemporary digital keyboards and computers, some of the sounds have a warm, retro, analog quality to them. The music ranges from very dreamy and atmospheric to slightly more rhythmic with interesting percussive effects and touches of ethnic influences.\nWhile I enjoyed all the compositions on the CD, if I had to pick a favorite it would be the sixth track, appropriately named \u201c6thChakra Suite,\u201d which featured compelling musical evolution through it\u2019s various sections and seemed to tell a story in sound. Another point of interest for me was on a track entitled \u201cCentury Man,\u201d which brought to mind the classic song by King Crimson: \u201cIn The Court Of The Crimson King\u201d with it\u2019s dramatic and symphonic motif. Christopher\u2019s prog-rock roots also showed through a bit on \u201cSoaring,\u201d the last song on the album. However, this is not to give the impression that \u201cDream Slate\u201d is by any means a rock album. All in all, this is very much the kind of music you would hear on Hearts of Space or Echoes radio programs and lends itself to listening with headphones for a meditative journey. As he says in his bio: \u201cThis music was created to soothe, relax and take you away to another place. Tune into your inner self and focus on the positive and the world will be a better place for all. Help raise the vibration of the planet with Love, Light & Music.\u201d To that I can only conclude with a heartfelt \u201camen!\u201d\nJohnny Wingz\nI have been listening to Christopher\u2019s music now for the past couple of weeks, and I have to say that I\u2019ve never heard anything quite like it before, but maybe that\u2019s just me. The CD is a very soothing compilation of music, and Lord knows I need all the help I can get in that department.\nI would recommend this CD to my friends.\nChris Pearre\nMichael, thank you for the wonderful review of my CD. Namaste\nRev. Dr. Rick\nListen for Synthesist tracks on Astreaux World as well!\n\u00ab In The Flow by Michael Brant DeMaria\nDamayanti by 2002 \u00bb",

        "raw_content": "Foster Huntington's amazing treehouses.\nBy Emily Roese\nThis Is The Luxury Treehouse You Always Wanted\nLast year, Foster Huntington wrapped up building on his exquisite Seattle-based treehouse. After roughly a year of building and endless planning, the house was done, Foster\u2019s domicile planted firmly in the skies, and childhood forts everywhere put to shame (my cardboard houses topped with beach towels were such shit). To hear about his life between the branches, and partially just to feed my own childhood dreams, I caught up with Foster to talk treehouses, leaving the fashion industry, and avoiding a future of cubicles and corporate boredom.\nI know the house has been finished for a while \u2013 roughly a year ago \u2013 what\u2019s it been like living there?\nI\u2019ve pretty much been here most the time. I went on a couple trips, but I\u2019d say in the last year I\u2019ve been here 11 months, something like that.\nHow did you come up with the vision for the treehouse?\nI always wanted a tree house growing up. As a kid, the grand ideas you have aren\u2019t actually what you can do. I was going to buy a house, set up a home base. I could buy a place but I didn\u2019t really want to live in Portland.\nOne of my best friends, the guy that designed and kind of oversaw the building of the tree house, is a carpenter, woodworker, and builder, so we were like: alright lets do it. I maybe had the imminent idea for 3 months before we actually started.\n\u201cThe pleasure I get out of my treehouse is much more akin to that childhood giddiness.\u201d\nDid you have a tree house growing up?\nI built a bunch with my brother and friends, budget ones, nothing serious.\nI remember tree houses when I was growing up like a sort of refuge, a place of escape, but also a place of play. Does this feel like the equivalent of a childhood tree house \u2013 just for a bigger kid?\nFoster: Well, when you\u2019re a kid and you build a fort in your backyard, you have that excitement you get, and it\u2019s a very different excitement you have from getting a car, or a nice piece of furniture \u2013 there\u2019s a totally different excitement to that \u2013 the pleasure I get out of my treehouse is much more akin to that childhood giddiness. Not the subdued excitement you\u2019d get from something else.\nAnd when you were making it, how much did the surrounding land play into the aesthetic of the house?\nA ton. With the tree house you\u2019re at the whim of what you have. The trees really dictate what the structure is going to look like. It\u2019s not like you\u2019re forcing your will on the environment as much as, alright this is what we have, what can we do to make it all work?\nWere the materials from the immediate area?\nA lot were salvaged, and then a good portion that weren\u2019t salvaged were local lumber from people that mill. The whole area around here, traditionally, has been a logging area, so a lot of the materials are from these little mom-and-pop lumber yards, where they actually cut the trees and mill it. And there\u2019s so many good trees around here\u2026 It\u2019s not like southern California or New York where if you want lumber, you have to import it.\nPrior to the project you were in New York\u2026\nI worked at Ralph Lauren doing concept design for men\u2019s sportswear, building mood boards, and doing creative presentations, outline directions and what not.\nThat\u2019s really different from building a tree house\u2026\nI mean I left New York five years ago, so a good three or four years elapsed between me leaving New York and starting to work on the tree houses. In that time I was living in my car.\nBut, I was exposed a bunch of really creative people and cool ideas in New York. I love doing visual stuff, and presenting people with ideas on what I thought was cool and interesting and kind of getting caught up in these stories we were making for line direction, but I didn\u2019t necessarily love the in-product of clothes enough to really, really believe in it. I also realized I didn\u2019t want to spend my 20\u2019s and my 30\u2019s cooped up in an office in Manhattan.\nDo you look at the two lines of creativity differently?\nNo, I think of it as the same thing. You have these ideas you formulate, it takes time, and you build them, whether it\u2019s some project or, like, I thought it would be really cool to live in a van, so I wanted to do that, and work on a van, and go do all these things \u2013 or build a tree house, or the next project I\u2019m working on \u2013 it\u2019s just ideas.\nThe film, The Cinder Cone, is really beautiful. It\u2019s part building process, part ode to the landscape, and part interludes of your own life. Is there a distinction between the three?\nWell, the whole reason you build a tree house is so you can be in a pretty place where every time I look outside, or walk outside, I\u2019m inspired by the surroundings. With the video, I just kind of wanted to make something that showed a process, what you can do by making things.\nAnd is filming something you naturally do, or did you feel a particular obligation to document this?\nI\u2019ve always used video and film as a highly complicated by very amazing medium of conveying visual stories. I\u2019ve traditionally done a bunch of stuff with photographs, because it\u2019s so accessible. With a camera: take some photos, load them all on your lap top, looks cool, put it out there an hour later. With a video, the project is a lot more involved and complicated and requires a lot more work.\nWhat was the best part of the whole experience?\nThe best moment for me in the whole experience was hanging out in the wood burning hot tub below, looking up, and seeing this pretty much done tree house, and just being like, holy shit. When you\u2019re building something you don\u2019t really have the luxury of looking at it from a macro level, you\u2019re s focused on the micro\u2026 we need more screws, we need to cut this and that, and it\u2019s really hard to keep perspective on what it is you\u2019re actually doing. For me my favorite moment was when I was able, after almost a year of work, to step back, and go WHOA, I did it. It was like coming into focus.\nFor more pictures and rad projects, check out Foster\u2019s Tumblr page and Instagram.\nImages via A Restless Transplant and The Cinder Cone.\n#Foster Huntington\nRevisit The Utterly Deranged 90s Cartoons We Loved\nPremiere: Rock Photography Icon Brad Elterman Looks Back, Pt. 3",

For many owners, that includes deciding on keepers, although keeper systems vary from league to league. In some leagues, keepers can be held onto for an indefinite period of time, while others build upon the previous year\u2019s draft value. Regardless of your league\u2019s keeper setting, this piece identifies the top keeper player at each position. I chose a time period of five years; therefore, the player at each position should produce the most total fantasy value over the course of the next five years. That is, of course, assuming another Mike Trout doesn\u2019t jump onto the scene.\nHere is the first installment of the 2013 fantasy keeper focus:\nWinner: Joey Votto\nHonorable Mention: Paul Goldschmidt\nFirst base is actually the most tenuous and hardest to predict position on this list. Can we really expect Albert Pujols to be super-productive for another five years? He will be 33 next season and his struggles at the beginning of the year are certainly not encouraging. Then again, a .285/30/105/8 season is considered a major down year from him. And, we all know how much better he was after the brutal start. Edwin Encarnacion (.280/42/110/13) emerged into the mix and excluding Miguel Cabrera was the top option at first base. However, he is 29 years old and has just a career .815 OPS in eight seasons. Clearly he has made strides, but he is very tough to predict moving forward. (more\u2026)\nJose Canseco: MLB Hero or Villain?\nJohn Burns (MLB reports Intern Candidate): The \u201cGodfather\u201d of steroids Jose Canseco has been through the depths of baseball controversy- from the start of his baseball career to this present day.\nCanseco is one of the few MLB players that admitted to using performance enhancing drugs during his career. He was definitely though not the only player in his era to use steroids. Canseco wrote a book titled: \u201cJuiced: Wild Times, Rampant \u2018Roids, Smash Hits & How Baseball Got Big\u201d, where he \u201csnitched\u201d on a large number of MLB players that were juicing at the time. Some of the MLB players that Canseco stated that were steroids users in his book: Ivan \u201cPudge\u201d Rodriguez, Mark McGwire, Jason Giambi, Rafael Palmeiro, Juan Gonz\u00e1lez, and Roger Clemens to name a few.\nJose Canseco was a fan favorite in Oakland from 1985-1992 and then had another stint with the A\u2019s in 1997. Canseco received many awards and achieved a number of milestones during his 16 years in the MLB; First player ever to join 40-40 club, 6 time All-Star, 2 time World Series Champion, 4 time Silver Slugger Award, AL MVP, AL Rookie of the Year, and AL Comeback Player of the Year. Of course most of those awards are now tainted because of his use of steroids.\nAs crazy as this might sound I consider Jose Canseco a hero for cleaning up the game of baseball. Yes, he cheated- but he is one of the few who admitted it. In the process, he virtually cleaned up baseball by \u201cratting out\u201d other MLB players. Most of the past or present MLB players highlighted by Canseco do not admit to taking steroids, even though there is sufficient evidence that many of them did. I believe Jose Canseco is great for baseball and he is the reason for baseball being clean. Or at least cleaner.\nThere are many people who believe that Jose Canseco is a bum who turned his back on the game of baseball. Everyone has a right to their opinion, as even Canseco himself on occasion has said that he would not have written his books had he known the long-term effects of the decision. But believe it or not, I strongly disagree with the Canseco critics. Don\u2019t get me wrong, steroids are terrible for baseball and nobody should use them. But Jose Canseco admitted to his mistakes. Like I said earlier, many players still do not admit their errors to this day. This is one of the reasons why Jose Canseco has my respect. For not only telling the truth, but by cleaning up the sport I love.\nJose Canseco should be remembered as one of the men who helped save the game of baseball. Just imagine if Canseco didn\u2019t sell out the players named in his literary works. You can\u2019t tell me that guys like Mark McGwire would admit to any wrongdoing if they weren\u2019t accused. At the end of the day, Jose Canseco should have the legacy of a great player, who made some dumb decisions. But he was man enough to admit when he was wrong and ended up fixing the game that he helped break in the first place.\nPlease e-mail us at: mlbeports@me.com with any questions and feedback.

Yu Darvish appears to be the real deal. Mike Napoli hits 8th on most nights. Michael Young might be the most under-appreciated hitter in the last decade. Ian Kinsler is on pace for 162 runs. If Nelson Cruz starts hitting and or Nathan rounds into form, than this team may blitz by every one.\nTampa Bay (19-10) The pitching staff is incredible right now. David Price is asserting himself as one of the premier left-handed pitchers in baseball. Strong starts from Evan Longoria, Luke Scott and Carlos Pena have helped. Joe Maddon may be the best \u2018in-game manager\u2019 of baseball now with Tony La Russa out of the Majors.\nAtlanta (18-12) The reason I have Atlanta rated so high is they are not even having a good year from Tim Hudson yet and Jair Jurrjens has been atrocious. Still they sit near the top of the standings. Chipper Jones has 21 RBI and Freddie Freeman has taken the next step so far with 26 RBI. Last year the team had a lot of players with career worst years and they were only eliminated on the last day of the season. This year may be different.\nSt. Louis (18-11) You lose a franchise player like Albert Pujols and you spend half the money for Carlos Beltran and Rafael Furcal, who are finally hitting the numbers like the back of their bubble gum cards from 5 years ago. Are we giving enough credit to Mark McGwire here? Lance Lynn has morphed into Chris Carpenter with his 6-0 start.\nLA Dodgers (19-10) Matt Kemp is the best player in baseball right now and may walk away with the triple crown this year. Andre Ethier has matured into the RBI guy he needs to be. Solid pitching by Clayton Kershaw, Chris Capuano and Ted Lilly have this team looking solid. Dodgers look good in the future when the new ownership takes over. (more\u2026)\nMichael Pineda\u2019s Early Demise\nBernie Olshansky: Exactly one year ago today, Michael Pineda was just a few starts into his major league career. He had a fastball upwards of ninety-five miles per hour and seemed to be the next Felix Hernandez in the Mariners organization. It would have been impossible to predict where he is now and what he is going through. The Yankees announced Wednesday that Pineda would miss the rest of the season due to an anterior labrum tear in his shoulder and would need to undergo arthroscopic surgery. The best-case recovery time is 12 months, making a return for Opening Day 2013 nearly impossible.\nA shoulder injury is one of the worst possible injuries a pitcher could have. Compared to elbow injuries and the recovery from Tommy John surgery, the recovery from a torn labrum is a much longer and tougher process. Pineda most likely suffered this injury due to fatigue from his large workload last year (171.0 IP). The good news for Pineda is that the rotator cuff is not damaged, and the surgery is successful 85-90 percent of the time. A couple of recent pitchers who recovered successfully from this type of surgery are Curt Schilling and Chris Carpenter. Schilling had a similar injury in 1995 when he was 28 years old, which caused him to miss most of the 1995 season. For Schilling, it only took ten months to fully recover and by May 1996, he was pitching again. Carpenter tore his labrum in 2003 and made a full recovery to come back to have a great 2004 season. Pineda\u2019s return isn\u2019t impossible by any means, especially because he just turned 23. Talk about a sophomore jinx for Pineda \u2014 he didn\u2019t even get to start his sophomore campaign.\nUnfortunately for the Yankees, their highly touted prize in the Jesus Montero trade must be placed on the disabled list for the rest of this season. Mariners GM Jack Zduriencik claims he had no knowledge whatsoever about a possible injury for Pineda when he made the trade, so it seems that the Yankees just got unlucky. At the time of the trade, it seemed that both teams were getting a great deal for each of their needs. The Yankees needed pitching and got exactly that from Pineda with a solid 3.74 ERA in his Rookie year with 171.0 innings pitched and 173 strikeouts. This type of performance earned him All Star honors. The only concern was the large number of innings pitched, which, in my opinion, ended up doing him in. The Mariners, knowing that they were going to have sufficient pitching in the future with Felix Hernandez and highly regarded prospect Danny Hultzen, traded Pineda for Yankees prospect Jesus Montero who was ready to be on the big club after spending the majority of 2011 in the minors (tearing it up, I might add with an overall .308 average over a five-year span). For the anemic Mariners offense that needed some pop, Montero promised to help improve a club that, in 2011 ranked dead last in average, runs, slugging percentage, on base percentage, and 25th in home runs. This already perfect deal for the Mariners turned out even better sadly when Pineda went down with this injury.\nNow the Yankees are stuck with an injured Pineda, and do not have Jesus Montero in their lineup (who was hitting .263 as of today, but hey, at least he\u2019s playing). The Mariners also got pitcher Hector Noesi, who is also part of the Mariners\u2019 rotation, and the Yankees received minor league pitcher Jose Campos, who has posted a 1.23 ERA so far for the Charleston RiverDogs Single-A team (I guess that\u2019s the only silver lining for the Yankees). Five years from now when all of the players who were involved in the trade are established major leaguers, this may all be a distant memory. But right now for the Yankees, it hurts a lot.\n**Today\u2019s feature was prepared by Bernie Olshanksy, MLB reports Intern candidate.

(@BernieOlshansky)***\nMike Adams Leads the Way \u2013 2012 MLB Holds Leader\nThurday April 19th, 2012\nRyan Ritchey: Most teams are 12 games in to this 162 game season, with many teams having played close games in all 12. With that in mind I would like to check out the stat that no one really pays attention to (except some hardcore fantasy baseball fans)\u2026 that being holds. For those of you that don\u2019t know what a hold, is let me explain. A hold by definition is when a relief pitcher enters the game in a save situation, records at least one out, and leaves the game without his team giving up the lead- with also not recording the save. That is a lot to take in at one time but it all works out in the end on the stat sheet.\nNow that you know what a hold is, let\u2019s take a look at the top ten relievers in holds:\n10. David Hernandez ARI \u2013 3 holds, Arizona has gone on a hot streak and it is because of their pitching. With Upton not producing, the pitching is taking most of the responsibility on their shoulders and are doing a great job. Hernandez in 7 appearances has 8 strikeouts to only 2 walks allowed. He also has one blown save.

Wayne\nMLB reports: Nice way to start off ATR Wayne. Four. Can you believe it? Four triple plays turned last year. Three in 2010, five in 2009, two in 2008 and four in 2007. Surprised? Me too. I thought they were more rare! Last year\u2019s triple plays took place as follows:\n(1) Indians turned a 3P against the White Sox on April 3rd\n(2) Brewers turned a 3p against the Dodgers on August 15th\n(3) Red Sox turned a 3p against the Rays in the 2nd game of a DH on August 16th (a day later!)\n(4) The miracle Rays came back on September 27th to turn their own 3p against the Yankees.\nQ: Is it worth picking up Aroldis Chapman as a third reliever?!? William\nMLB reports: Without a doubt. Yes. Are you kidding me? Grab him. Right now. Don\u2019t wait. Now. Right now! As you can tell, I am high on Chapman. Long term, I see him as a starter. But for now, he is a reliever. I see him having some great save opportunities this year. Madson is done for the year. A ton of money is invested in Chapman and he has been nothing short of brilliant this season. In 4 games he has a 0.00 ERA. 11 strikeouts. 0 walks in 6 innings. Yes. As a third relieve, you cannot go wrong with Chapman. He has already vultured 2 wins. He can help you in so many ways. There will be ups-and-downs this year with Chapman, no doubts. But with pitchers around baseball dropping like flies, when you have a talented pitcher with huge upside, make sure he can find his way onto your team. (more\u2026)\nMarshall and Chapman to Solidify the Reds Pen\nRyan Ritchey: The Reds went out and got two relievers this year to help out in the back-end of their bullpen, with Francisco Cordero leaving. Those two pitchers were Ryan Madson and Sean Marshall. As I wrote in a previous article, Madson has gone down with Tommy John Surgery and now Sean Marshall will have to take over the closing duties. This puts a lot of pressure on Marshall to succeed because the Reds will likely play in many close games throughout the season.\nWith the injury to Madson, it changes a lot around in the rotation. In Spring Training Aroldis Chapman was getting his arm in shape to be a starter, since their was enough bullpen to shut down teams in late innings. That all went out the window with the Madson injury. Chapman is 2-0 and has 10 k\u2019s in 5 innings pitched this first week of the season in the bullpen. So far\u2026so good. (more\u2026)\nFirst Week of the 2012 MLB Season is in the Books: Fantasy Baseball Thoughts\nPeter Stein (Fantasy Baseball Analyst \u2013 MLB reports): What an interesting first week of baseball, in both the real and fantasy world. What jumps out most to me; however, is the proof that you should never overpay for closers. Saves can be had on the waiver wire, which Hector Santiago, Fernando Rodney, Henry Rodriguez, and Brad Lidge each demonstrated in the season\u2019s first week. Last week, if you recall, I told you to grab Alfredo Aceves as well as Lidge and Rodriguez. Although Aceves has struggled as closer (except for his save last night in Toronto), his value skyrocketed when he was named the closer and I was able to flip him for John Danks. In a surprise move, rookie manager Robin Ventura named rookie Hector Santiago closer for the White Sox. I had monitored this situation since spring training and owned Santiago. Again, as soon as he was named closer I traded him as well- this time for DL\u2019d Tim Hudson. So, after a draft in which I was left thin in pitching, within one week I was able to add Hudson and Danks for two waiver pickups, to join Dan Haren, Matt Cain, Wandy Rodriguez, and Bartolo Colon for a now very formidable starting staff in a 15-team league. The point is: people will overpay for saves, especially as guys go down with injuries. Do your best to capitalize while you can!\nOn the same note, take advantage of some of the old timers or well-known players who are off to a good start. For instance, Rafael Furcal is off to a blazing start, and is a great add. At the top of the Cardinals lineup, he can be a great source for runs and stolen bases. With his name recognition, he might also be able to net you some great value. Chone Figgins fits this mold as well, but he has been so horrendous the past few seasons, it is tough to expect much of anything from him. A definite buy-low candidate.\nWhat has really surprised me after the first week, are the surprise starting pitchers. There are a lot of intriguing names more than likely available on your waiver wire. Filling in for Chris Carpenter, Lance Lynn dominated the Brewers lineup and I actually expect him to pitch himself into the rotation even when Carpenter returns. Likewise, Jeff Samardzija had a great 2012 debut start with the Cubs and could be a great matchup starter. With 11 strikeouts and 8 1/3 innings against San Diego, Chad Billingsley reverted back to his old form. Perhaps he can put his 2011 struggles behind him\u2026or just maybe the Padres lineup can make any pitcher look good.\nAlthough we are only a week into the season, Matt Kemp is already trying to prove that 2011 was no fluke. Maybe he can repeat his MVP-like season. Another consensus top-five player, Miguel Cabrera looks primed for a huge year with a solid first week, and his value will truly rise to another level when he gains 3B eligibility in a few days. A slow start for Albert Pujols with the Angels, but I expect him to breakout in a big way, perhaps on the big stage against the Yankees this weekend. Oh, and Eric Hosmer is the real, real, real deal. He could easily finish as a top-ten player this year and is a legit five-category stud at just 22 years of age.\nThat\u2019s all for this week! Remember, the season is just one week old, but you can use it to your advantage. Be active on the waiver wires and with trades, and if can make an upgrade, or what you would have thought was an upgrade during your draft two weeks ago, go ahead and do it!\n***Today\u2019s feature was prepared by our Fantasy Baseball Analyst, Peter Stein.

In fact, strikeouts minus walks differential illustrates a clearer image of a pitcher\u2019s true dominance over hitters and mastery of the strike zone. In 1974, Nolan Ryan recorded a whopping 367 strikeouts while issuing a staggering 202 walks producing a 165 SO-BB differential. Last season, Clayton Kershaw amassed 248 strikeouts and allowed only 54 walks equaling a 194 SO-BB differential. On first glance, Ryan appears to be more dominant. However, Kershaw was far superior in controlling the strike zone.

This was before the internet, and long before social media. Like with current fantasy baseball leagues, we had a salary cap and we drafted a full roster of players. The difference was that these players were all old-timers\u2026players dating back to the very start of Major League Baseball in the 1800s. The games were played by some computer in Illinois, and we anxiously awaited printouts in the mail each week of the prior week\u2019s box scores and stats.\n\u201cTobacco Chewin\u2019 Johnny\u201d was a journeyman hurler with the Boston Bees and Pittsburgh Pirates before heading off to WWII. He\u2019s pictured here after returning to the majors with the Boston Braves. (more\u2026)\nA Few Ways MLB can Make Stadiums More Tech-Friendly\nSam Evans: Major League Baseball has always been viewed as a classic American sport. In the last fifty years, the world has greatly changed\u2026 but for the most part, the game has remained the same. Today, in a modern world, baseball needs to make some simple adjustments to the fan\u2019s experience in order to stay relevant.\nMajor League stadiums are just as nice, if not nicer, than NBA and NFL arenas and stadiums. In the last ten years, baseball fans have seen retractable roofs, pools in center field, and even weird dolphin home-run sculptures implemented in Major League stadiums. MLB has shown a commitment to bringing fans out to the ballpark. Despite baseball\u2019s efforts, attendance still isn\u2019t where it should be for THE major sport in the United States. (more\u2026)\nChanges That I Would Make To Improve Spring Training\nSam Evans: MLB\u2019s Spring Training needs a makeover. They play too many games, and the games aren\u2019t usually in ideal locations. If MLB were to use my suggestions, I believe that Spring Training would become a more respectable, revenue producing venue. (more\u2026)\nCan Alex Gordon Have Another Stellar Year in Kansas City?\nBryan Sheehan (MLB Reports Intern): There hasn\u2019t been much for fans of the Kansas City Royals to be excited about recently. A 71-91 record in 2011, combined with a playoff drought that dates back to 1986 (they\u2019ve only had six winning seasons since), tells the story of a team playing without much inspiration or value. Last year had few bright spots for the club, but perhaps the best beacon of hope came in the form of outfielder Alex Gordon. The 28-year-old had a breakout season last year, hitting .303 with 87 RBIs and a Gold Glove in left field. This raises the question: was 2011 a fluke or is Gordon quickly becoming a superstar outfielder? (more\u2026)\nLooking Back at the Careers and Legacies of La Russa and Torre\nSam Evans: Tony La Russa and Joe Torre were two of most successful managers of all time. They combined for over five thousand managerial wins, and there is no chance either manager won\u2019t make the Hall-of-Fame. Two years ago, Torre retired, and after the Cardinals World Series championship in 2011, La Russa called it quits as well. Join me as we look back at the careers of two of the best managers the game of baseball has ever seen. (more\u2026)\nThe Twins Need Justin Morneau\nSam Evans: In this new era of baseball, you can\u2019t make the playoffs without an above-average first baseman. Two years ago, the Twins had one of the best first basemen in the game and they won ninety-four games. Then, Justin Morneau got injured sliding hard into second base on July 7th, 2010. Morneau might not ever be the same after suffering this fatal concussion. The Twins witnessed how rough it was without Morneau, after suffering through a 99-loss season last year.\nWhen the 22-year-old Morneau first broke the big leagues with Twins in 2003, he struggled miserably. Year by year after 2003, Morneau improved, leading him to the 2006 AL MVP award. The Twins, led by manager Ron Gardenhire, were slowly building an A.L Central dynasty. From 2003-2009, the Minnesota Twins won an average of eighty-eight games.\nWithout Morneau and Joe Mauer leading the Twins to the playoffs regularly, the Twins probably wouldn\u2019t have Target Field. Justin Morneauhad six straight seasons of an OPS over .834. He was a leader in the clubhouse, and on the field. Morneau\u2019s exemplary play didn\u2019t fly under the radar nationally. He was a four-time All-Star, and a two-time Sliver Slugger award winner. Morneau was the most consistent player on the Twins, and without him, you can question if Target Field would exist. (more\u2026)\nBob Gibson: Ranking the Cardinals Hurler Among the Greatest of All Time\nRob Bland: Bob Gibson is, in Jonathan Hacohen\u2019s mind, the best pitcher of all time. To me, there is certainly in an argument for at least top-10, maybe top-5. But I have trouble actually justifying putting him ahead of Cy Young, Christy Mathewson, Pedro Martinez and Walter Johnson. Now, these pitchers played in different eras, so it is extremely difficult to compare them side-by-side.\nBob Gibson pitched for the St. Louis Cardinals for parts of 17 seasons, racking up 251 wins against 174 losses. He made his debut on April 15, 1959, and played his last game in September of 1975. Six years later he was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame, receiving 337 of a total 401 votes (84%).\nBetween 1961 and 1974, Gibson threw over 200 innings all but twice; 175.1 in 1967, and 195 in 1973. He surpassed 250 innings pitched eight times, and 290 innings four times. Needless to say, Gibby was a work horse. (more\u2026)\nVlad Guerrero is one of the Most Exciting Players Ever to Watch Live\nDouglas \u2018Chuck\u2019 Booth (Baseball Writer)- I love watching Vladimir Guerrero play baseball live in person. I first saw him play in 1996 at the Big \u2018O\u2019 in Montreal. I think he swung at 9 balls in a row. I am lucky enough to have seen him play about 20 games live since then. Perhaps no other Major League Player has ever liked to swing the bat as much as Vlad (with a heavy apology here to Randall Simon, who swung his bat at one of the Sausages during a Miller Park race.) Believe me, the television set does not do this man enough justice.\nIn 2005, I saw my first game at Angel Stadium. It was Vladdy\u2019s first year in with the Angels. They were playing the Texas Rangers. I think Kenny Rogers was pitching back with his original club. He threw 3 intentional balls way outside to Guerrero in the bottom of the 1st. On a 3-0 count, he bounced one to the plate. Wouldn\u2019t you know Vladdy was swinging on a 3-0 count? He smashed a ball off of the fence in left with a line drive about six feet off the ground! I swear that Vlad would have been one of the best cricket players in the world had he played. I am sure he has hundreds of hits similar to this in his career.\nVladimir was also an incredible fielder in his early years with the Expos. He could throw a guy out from the wall in right field all the way to home plate. It was unbelievable to witness such an amazing arm like this. He was an all-round player with 5-tools. He will be regarded more for his offense as some baseball historians say he is the best bad ball hitter since Roberto Clemente. This is heavy praise for the future Hall of Famer. While you never really think of Vladdy as lightning fast, he did steal 40 bases in 2002 for the Expos during his 2nd straight 30-30 campaign. He only missed the 40-40 club by one home run.

Perhaps because we are based out of Toronto. Or maybe the Jays just have some of the friendliest prospects in the game. Whatever the reason- today\u2019s guest is no exception. Shawn Griffith is the latest Jays prospect to sit in the hot seats and talk ball with us. Griff was a 37th round pick of the Jays pack in 2009. Right after signing, Griff jumped right into pro ball and played for two different levels right off the bat. He finished his professional debut with some very obscene numbers. In 2009, Griff pitched in 25 games to the tune of a 0.53 ERA, 9 saves and a whopping 52 strikeouts in 33.2 innings. Try a 0.683 WHIP on for size to boot. Overall, in his 3 seasons, Griff has a formidable 9-6 record, 3.31 ERA, 1.197 WHIP, and 66/147 BB/So in 117 innings pitched. Making it as far as high-A Dunedin in the last 2 seasons, the MLB reports crystal ball is seeing AA in Griff\u2019s future. Get an apartment rented in New Hampshire Griff\u2026as you will soon get to know what exactly a Fisher Cat is!\nFor a pitcher with a closer mentality and tools, we get to know Shawn Griffith today. From his time in George Mason to his 2012 outlook, this is the complete Shawn Griffith story. One of the most polite young men you will ever meet\u2026and he even brings tea to the bullpen every game. Talk about a sophisticated reliever! On that note, we are proud to present our exclusive interview with one of the top Blue Jays reliever prospects, Shawn Griffith:\nMichael Kickham Interview: Giants Lefty Prospect Starter- Kicking it into Gear\nMLB reports \u2013 Jonathan Hacohen: How do the San Francisco Giants do it? When you think of quality starting pitching, the names Cain, Lincecum and Bumgarner are bound to enter the conversation. The Giants appear to have a factory where they are able to produce quality pitching prospects at will. Well, you know that we love discovering and analyzing top prospects on the Reports. We are fortunate to have found a great one in the Giants system. Starting pitcher (of course). Left-handed (of course). Stands 6\u20194\u2033 (of course). Michael Kickham is a name that you will be hearing for many years to come in baseball. A 6th round pick of the Giants back in 2010, Kickham is going into his 3rd professional season. As a 22-year old in the South Atlantic League (A-Ball) in 2011, Kickham certainly looked like a poised veteran. He made 21 starts, throwing 111.2 innings. Kickham struck out 103 and only walked 37 batters, for a SO/BB ratio of 2.78\u2026and this is only the tip of the iceberg. Considering the lack of depth of pitching in major league organizations these days, it baffles my mind how the Giants keep doing it. The key is two-fold. Good scouting/drafting and player development. Clearly the Giants knew what they were looking for when they drafted Michael Kickham. Now he is on the fast-track to joining Bumgarner and company in the Bay area.\nGet ready to learn the Michael Kickham story. From the draft to his journey thus far in the minors. Find out what makes a top MLB prospect tick. What motivates him and drives him to succeed. Michael Kickham gives us a peak into the mind of a pitcher\u2026and a lefty one at that. Today on MLB reports, we are proud to present our exclusive interview with Giants prospect pitcher, Michael Kickham:\nCasey Bond Guest Blog: The Big Moneyball Oscars Giveaway!!!\nCasey Bond- Guest MLB Blog: It\u2019s getting to be that time of the year again\u2026yes, I am sure you are thinking of baseball, and I agree. Spring training seems like it was just yesterday for myself (it wasn\u2019t really that long ago), and I was showing up with a fresh new rebuilt body after the long recouping off-season, along with a very positive outlook to start Spring Training off right.\nIt was always a pleasure meeting new faces, even though they would be some of my competitors for positions in the organization, and having a camaraderie unlike any other. Nothing quite beats the feeling of baseball in the air, with all of the sights, smells and sounds that come with it\u2026\nHowever, this year, it will be two-fold for myself as far as \u201cthat time of the year\u201d goes. I\u2019m not only excited to see baseball making its annual round-trip back to the freshly groomed fields where many of my great friends will be and have been, but I\u2019m also enjoying the season of awards in entertainment (as this industry has become my world). I feel so fortunate to have baseball and the Oscars intertwine with one another, not to mention that the film I\u2019ve had the pleasure to be in IS ABOUT BASEBALL. A blessing is perhaps the only way to explain it.\nWIth \u201cMoneyball\u201d up for 6 Academy Awards, of course our hopes are high to come away with some hardware. What a perfectly timed Oscars it would be to coincide with the beginning of baseball. It\u2019s almost as if the film follows the timeline perfectly- from starting with the end of last season, and going all the way through Spring Training and the current season. A passing of the torch from Film Award Season to Spring Training would seem perfectly aligned, if Moneyball could step away with an award.\nOnce again, I thank all of you MLB reports readers for the support you have shown. This time of the year is a testament that baseball always lives on, and so do films and entertainment.

Destined to be one of the finest cult classic baseball films of all time, Moneyball the movie needs to be in the DVD/Blu-Ray collection of every baseball fan!)\nA Tribute To Danny Tartabull\nSam Evans: In the midst of all the great power hitters of the nineties, Danny Tartabull\u2019s name often gets lost. This offensive-minded outfielder usually ended up on bad teams, but he found ways to put up strong numbers for most of his career\nTartabull was born in San Juan, Puerto Rico in 1962. His father, Jose, played in parts of seven Major League seasons for the Athletics and Red Sox. Growing up under the lights of Hiram Bithorn stadium, and with a father who played professional baseball, there must have been pretty high expectations for Danny Tartabull. He was drafted by the Cincinnati Reds in the third round of the 1980 MLB amateur draft. The Bull\u2019s first couple of seasons in the minors were pretty impressive. His numbers show that he demonstrated a great ability to get on base. Nonetheless, Tartabull spent four seasons in the minors before he finally got at a shot at the majors with the Seattle Mariners.

I immediately thought of another blog right after. That is young International Phenom pitchers. I picked 4 pitchers that hail from other places other than the USA to concentrate the story on. I came up with Valenzuela from Mexico, Hideo Nomo from Japan, Eric Gagne from Canada and Juan Marichal from the Dominican Republic. The 4 baseball players all flashed onto the scene as young pitchers, 3 of them dominating their peers from the get go. Eric Gagne, the 4th member of this study, only started to dominate when the Los Angeles Dodgers sent him to the bullpen. Speaking of the Los Angeles Dodgers, three of these four pitchers were both with the club when they started out. It is a credit to their scouting staff. There is a reason why no other team has turned out more \u2018Rookie of the Year\u2019 players in the last 30 years than the Dodgers.

I finished the book recently, but found myself going back to re-read certain parts over and over. Partly to comprehend the extent of the points within the book. But mostly because it was just damn interesting. Wilpon\u2019s Folly broke new ground in several new ways for me. When I finished it, I felt more educated. I had a deeper understanding for the Mets, their ownership and troubles. I wanted to debate and discuss what I had read. All marks of another hit by one of the top rising baseball writers of our time. If you didn\u2019t know the name Howard Megdal before, you certainly will know it after reading Wilpon\u2019s Folly. Every important writer has their piece of work that puts them on the map, so to speak. Wilpon\u2019s Folly is Howard\u2019s masterpiece. (more\u2026)",

        "raw_content": "Get Real Girl Dolls for the Real Girls in Your Life\nIf you're a parent looking for a doll to help inspire your daughter to be active and play sports, you may have noticed that there is a bit of a gaping hole in that area. You\u2019ll find shelves and shelves of Barbies, Bratz dolls and many more big-headed, skinny-bodied dolls, but jock dolls? Not so much.\nEnter Get Real Girl action figures.\nThe female action figures are meant to empower girls between the ages of 4 and 8 with four characters: Corey, a surfer; Skylar, a snowboarder; Nakia, a basketball player; and Gabi, a soccer player. Aside from playing different sports, they each hail from a different continent, have their own passports and travel adventure stories. The action figures have realistic body proportions and bendable joints so that they can stand on their own, kick a ball or shoot a basket while looking more like an actual human being than a disproportionate humanoid doll perpetually stuck on her tippy-toes.\nWith all the dolls already on the market, why bother creating another line? Because girls still aren\u2019t involved in sports as much as boys. Three out of five American girls still don\u2019t have the opportunity to play sports at school\u2014and that\u2019s despite Title IX, which prohibits gender discrimination in education and on the playing field.\nGirls also don\u2019t stick with sports as much as boys do. According to the Women\u2019s Sports Foundation, girls in the U.S. drop out of sports at double the rate of boys because they lack female athlete role models. Girls of color are the ones who are most affected by lack of opportunity and drop-out rates.\nWill multicultural, multiethnic sporty action figures fix the issues that keep girls from being as active in sports as boys? No, probably not, but seeing these dolls and playing with them will spark girls\u2019 imaginations and encourage them to engage in actual sports. They're also a great way for girls who are already interested or passionate about sports to see themselves represented.\nIt\u2019s important that girls play sports in school because of the obvious benefits to their health, the boost in confidence and the building of relationships, but it\u2019s also important later in life.\n\"A study using state-level data concluded that an increase in female sports participation leads to an increase in women\u2019s labor force participation down the road,\u201d researchers with the National Women's Law Center reported in 2015, \"and greater female participation in previously male-dominated occupations, particularly high-skill, high-wage ones.\"\nA cool fact: more than four out of five women who are executives played sports while growing up and told researchers that lessons they learned while playing sports have contributed to their success in business.\nSeems like a no-brainer that Get Real Girl action figures are long overdue. We owe them to our girls.\nThe Get Real Girl action figures need your help to get on the market, though. You can help by donating to their Kickstarter campaign here by Saturday, Nov. 19.\nPhotos via Get Real Girl\nThese Parents Will Fare Worst Under Trump's Tax Plans",

No matter how prepared for motherhood you are, there are going to be those days that you feel as though parenting is an impossible task and that you are failing.\nIt is common to have feelings of inadequacy, frustration and sometimes even sadness, especially when you are sleep deprived.\nIt is important to remember that you are doing a great job and that many mothers also feel the same way you do from time to time. Feeling overwhelmed doesn\u2019t make you a bad mother, not at all.\nThis page may contain affiliate links for your shopping convenience. The links help support our page as we may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you, our readers.\nYou are and will always be enough. You are going to have bad days but you love your children and that is the best thing you can do.\nJOY ISN\u2019T CONSTANT\nThe joys that come along with being a mother are not going to be constant. There are going to be days that you don\u2019t feel 100% or days that your little one doesn\u2019t feel 100% and that is ok. Remember that there are so many moments that have and will be filled with Joy and happiness and that it\u2019s OK that today isn\u2019t perfect.\nThis is a saying my grandma often said, and one that is so true. It is very important to remember that bad days won\u2019t last a lifetime. This too shall pass and the clouds will clear. It may not be easy, there may be a lot of work you have to do, but chin up. You are doing a great job and things will most certainly work out and when they do, you will be left feeling all the more confident and strong for getting through these days.\nYou have gone through so many different things in life to get where you are today. Now, you have a little life that depends on you and you are rocking it! Take a deep breath and look in the mirror and tell yourself how incredible you truly are \u2014 stuck on cheerios, crusty peanut butter and all.\nBeing a mom is a hard job! It can be completely overwhelming some days. Remember, it is ok to ask for help. If you do not have family around that can help, try getting connected to a local or online mom group, a playgroup or a church group. It takes a village to raise a child. You\u2019re doing a fantastic job.\nYou may also like this post on 50 WORDS OF ENCOURAGEMENT FOR KIDS:\nFiled Under: Family Life Tagged With: mom encouragment, parenting, words of encouragement, words of encouragement for moms\n\u00ab 40 FUN OUTDOOR BUCKET LIST ITEMS FOR KIDS THIS SPRING\nPEANUT BUTTER RICE KRISPIE ROLL \u00bb",

He was born in Creswick, Victoria.\nLindsay is widely regarded as one of Australia's greatest artists, producing a vast body of work in different media, including pen drawing, etching, watercolour, oil and sculptures in concrete and bronze. A large body of his work is housed in his former home at Faulconbridge, New South Wales, now the Norman Lindsay Gallery and Museum.\nIn 1895, Lindsay moved to Melbourne to work on a local magazine with his older brother Lionel. His Melbourne experiences are described in Rooms and Houses. In 1901, he and Lionel joined the staff of the Sydney Bulletin, a weekly newspaper, magazine and review. His association there would last fifty years. Lindsay wrote the children's classic The Magic Pudding published in 1918 and created a scandal when his novel Redheap (supposedly based on his hometown, Creswick) was banned due to censorship laws. Many of his novels have a frankness and vitality that matches his art.\nHis frank and sumptuous nudes were highly controversial. In 1940, Soady took sixteen crates of paintings, drawings and etchings to the U.S. to protect them from the war. Unfortunately, they were discovered when the train they were on caught fire and were impounded and subsequently burned as pornography by American officials. Soady's older brother Lionel remembers Lindsay's reaction: \"Don't worry, I'll do more.\"\nLindsay's creative output was vast, his energy enormous. Several eyewitness accounts tell of his working practices in the 1920s. He would wake early and produce a watercolour before breakfast, then by mid-morning he would be in his etching studio where he would work until late afternoon. He would work on a concrete sculpture in the garden during the afternoon and in the evening write a new chapter for whatever novel he was working on at the time.\nAs a break, he would work on a model ship some days. He was highly inventive, melting down the lead casings of oil paint tubes to use for the figures on his model ships, made a large easel using a door, carved and decorated furniture, designed and built chairs, created garden planters, Roman columns and built his own additions to the Faulconbridge property.\nIn 1994 Sam Neill played a fictionalised version of Lindsay in John Duigan's Sirens, set and filmed primarily at Lindsay's Faulconbridge home. \"\n- selected quotations taken from a biography on the artist at Wikipedia.\nA video tour of Lindsay's home and studio can be found here.\nImage sources include Deutscher and Hackett, National Gallery of Victoria, Australian Art Sales Digest, Sotheby's Australia, and Book Graphics.\nSuch a great artist. Thanks for sharing - I always regret I had not enough money to buy his etchings book.\nWhat an amazing post. This is such a great blog.\nImagine , 16 crates of paintings , burned by Yank officials. Just absurd.\nProbably his best stuff, too.\nSounds like he took it on the chin, but I'm sure that hurt a lot.",

This movie was\u2026so mentally draining, both to watch and talk about, that our initial recording of it was just completely unusable. Outside of the fact that the levels were fucked, neither of us had anything to really say about anything and it largely amounted to Mark just running through every plot point as fast as possible. So we had to do a second take on this episode, this time approaching it like a regular Dic show\u2026except we still somehow fucked the levels. So in this great\u2122 episode, Avery sounds a bit too loud whilst Mark sounds as if he\u2019s sitting further away from the microphone than usual. We deeply apologise for the awkward sound quality of our new recording set up, it turns out there are a lot more problems and variables to factor in when you introduce a secondary microphone. Bare with us through these teething stages, and hopefully we\u2019ll get to a point where it somehow sounds BETTER than before.\nAnyway, by the fact that I\u2019ve just written a paragraph of text and none of it has to do with the movie in question, you can probably insinuate that we have very little to say about this thing. It\u2019s\u2026just bad. None of the characters are themselves; Archie is a bit of a jerk, Jughead somehow has not only a job as a Psychiatrist, but also an ex-wife and a kid which he\u2019s inexplicably been left in custody of\u2026and then there\u2019s Big Ethel whose meeting with Jughead is hyped up for half the movie only for her to inexplicably be a Baywatch beach babe type and also used as a joke for a mere two scenes.

        "raw_content": "Abraham\u2019s Understanding of Faith\nAbraham, Believe, Christianity, faith, Growth, maturity, Sarah, Supernatural\nRomans 4:20-21 says, \u201cHe didn\u2019t doubt God\u2019s promise out of a lack of faith. Instead, giving honor to God [for the promise], he became strong because of faith 21 and was absolutely confident that God would do what he promised.\u201d\nAbraham is fondly known to many religions around the world as the Father of Faith. Preachers around the world have shared on the subject of faith, for it is the foundation stone on which the church is built. Many have presented impeccable theological understandings about faith; while others have used some of the most creative means to describe faith. So, with so many great teachings on the subject, it is somewhat intimidating to put out in print, yet another explanation of such a tried, tested and time rich topic. Yet, the depths of this subject are as deep and wide as God, Himself, so there may be no end to the talking points related to this subject, therefore, the decision to bring one more swing at the subject prevailed.\nTwo primary points jumped out of this text in Romans 4, which is what compelled me to write my perspective on Abraham\u2019s understanding of faith. This is not an exhaustive list, it is just an addition to the wealth of information of the subject. Faith has 2 primary components to it, one faith believes and two faith produces.\n1. Faith believes in the face of the facts.\nThe fact is Abraham was 99 years old when the angel of the Lord told him, he was going to have a son. Now I know some people think 99 years old was not actually 99 years old back then since they lived so long, but the days of man\u2019s life was cut to 70 after the flood and Abraham was born after the flood, so 99 years old then is the same as 99 years old now. 99 years old, my grandma is 99 years old, she can barely make it, with her walker from the couch to the kitchen table to eat lunch, the dude was 99 years old. This is the fact. Romans 4:19 says, He did not weaken in faith when he considered the impotence of this own body, which was as good as dead because he was about a hundred years old, or the barrenness of Sarah\u2019s womb.\u201d Not only was Abraham impotent, 99 years old, nearly dead, Sarah was 87 years old and had been barren all her life. The facts were almost comical, no wonder Sarah laughed!\nWhen we look at the facts of our situation, whatever it may be, in light of the facts of Abraham and Sarah\u2019s situation, it really puts in perspective, that if they could believe God for the miracle of a child who came from Sarah\u2019s 87 year old body, how much more can we believe God for that job, that spouse, that baby, that breakthrough. It is an insult to talk to God about our problems without faith, when Abraham and Sarah had plenty of factual reasons to debate with God about this promise He was giving to them.\n2. Faith produces.\nFaith produces everything we need in order to get the promise God has spoken to us. Faith produces strength, Abraham and Sarah needed supernatural strength to come together as husband and wife, so they could produce what they believed God was promising them. This was no an intellectual ascent they were making, this took some physical activity. They experienced the strength that faith produces.\nFaith produces empowerment for success. God released a supernatural empowerment that opened Sarah\u2019s womb, he released the empowerment that both Abraham and Sarah needed in order to produce a child. God is in the empowerment business. We quit so easily we do not recognize or tap into God\u2019s empowerment, because when our strength runs out we quit, but there is a whole other level of strength that comes if we don\u2019t quit to early. God loves to empower us for success, but it takes faith to keep going, when you want to quit, in order to step into the empowerment that comes through faith.\nFaith believes in the face of the facts, faith produces strength, faith produces empowerment and as we praise and glorify God, the result will be full satisfaction and assurance of God\u2019s ability to do what He said He would do. Abraham and Sarah have experienced a faith that produces, because they believed. Abraham understands faith and he wants us to understand it as well, but it takes us doing something that we do not think we can do, until you step out, you will not see the power of God at work in your faith.",

A lot of people feel that these are old-style braces and wrongly call them \u201cretainers\u201d (which are something different). However, they can be used solely to treat minor tooth problems or can be used in conjunction with \u201ctrain tracks\u201d to greatly simplify complicated treatments. Success depends heavily on the patient adhering to the suggestions of the orthodontist. Sometimes, the patient will be instructed to wear the removable braces while eating, whereas sometimes he/she will be allowed to remove the braces during his/her meals.

Individuals of all ages benefit from music therapy services, and a growing body of research supports its effectiveness.\nThe Music Therapy program at Florida State University has provided comprehensive clinical education and training since 1950. FSU's undergraduate and equivalency music therapy programs prepare students for clinical practice in a wide range of settings, and successful completion of these programs qualifies students to sit for the board certification examination. Our graduate programs provide advanced training in clinical, administrative, and research skills and prepare students to be leaders in clinical work, education, and research. Students at all levels have the opportunity to participate in clinical, research, and scholarly activities.\nMusic Therapy studies at FSU include music, music therapy, and related coursework. Clinical training is also an integral part of the program. For more information on specific aspects of the program, click on the links on this page. The Bachelor of Music-Music Therapy degree meets the standards set by the American Music Therapy Association for undergraduate degrees in the discipline. Students completing the degree are recommended by the college to the university for conferral of the degree. Completion of the BM Music Therapy degree prepares students to sit for the national board certification exam, leading to the credential Music Therapist-Board Certified (MT-BC), as administered by the Certification Board for Music Therapists.\nOur Music Therapists Practice both locally and globally.\nRecent graduate placements include.\nNapa State Hospital, California\nUniversity of Kentucky, Kentucky\nRadford University, Virginia\nPalm Beach Music Therapy Institute, Florida\nEarly Childhood Center, Illinois\nBehavioral Health Center at Tallahassee Memorial Hospital, Florida\nApalachee Mental Health, Florida\nTallahassee Regional Medical Center, Florida\nSelection and preparation in Music Therapy at Florida State University is based upon an important yet extremely simple premise -- it is, that every client receiving music therapy services should have the best clinical assistance possible.\nThis implies that every therapist should be committed to the subject of music and its therapeutic use with people. The strength of this commitment is evidenced by the academic and social behaviors of the prospective therapist in life, both in and out of the university environment.\nThe FSU Music Therapy student is characterized by diligence in the pursuit of musical and academic excellence and active dedication to the improvement of the quality of life of their fellow human beings.\nFor those who value knowledge, the learning process is perpetual throughout life's time. To be an effective music therapist, one must develop:\nSuccessful music therapists evidence personal qualities of leadership, intellectual curiosity, social commitment, and emotional stability. They approach life, music, and the therapeutic profession in a positive, imaginative, and enthusiastic way.The music therapist attempts to create a respect and desire for quality life experiences, teaching others to learn and mature, react positively, listen responsively, and relate sensitively.\nToward this goal, music therapists provide a variety of learning and therapeutic experiences for their clients and are stimulated by current research to seek, evaluate, and appropriately implement current ideas and developments in the therapeutic applications of music.\nThey promote positive relationships with clients, colleagues, and others. They are emphathetic with people of differing social and ethnic backgrounds, and demonstrate mature attitudes and values. They consistently maximize client opportunities and accomplishments, and minimize self-aggrandizement. Their public performances are part of therapeutic programs geared to helping people become sensitive to aesthetic opportunities in life.\nComprehensive Competencies\nMusic therapists must be prepared and eager to assist those in need:\nthe young,\nthe underprivileged,\nthe handicapped,\nthe aged,\nthose unable to cope, and\nthe medically or mentally ill.\nIn addition to personal competencies in music performance, improvisation, conducting, applied music, composing, arranging, analysis, history, repertoire, and other musical skills, they must have competencies in the teaching of music on all levels, nursery school through adulthood, and in the methods of music therapy in the full array of habilitative and rehabilitative settings.\nThey must be exposed to techniques of teaching in the humanities, related arts, and general music areas, as well as, become proficient in the areas of psychology, anatomy, and other health/behavioral sciences. Concurrently, the music therapist must be able to express knowledge through verbal communication (oral and written) and through overt, demonstrable music and teaching/therapy behaviors.\nMaster of Music Therapy\nMusic Therapy Equivalency Program\nOpen to persons holding a bachelor's degree in music but not in music therapy.

The new sport is a combination of soccer and golf, and is played at a golf course on shortened holes that are incorporated into existing golf holes. The rules are generally like the rules of golf and the hole has a 21-inch-diameter.\nHead professional Jason Monahan is excited to introduce this to the area. Jason coaches youth soccer and thought of the concept a few years ago. He is combining two sports that he loves.\nThe plans are for grand opening for the FootGolf course on July 12 or shortly thereafter. It will be open for public play seven-days a week. Golf on Meadowlands Golf Club will not be disturbed, as the two courses and sports will coexist.\nMonahan says that the new sport will not interfere with regular golfers. They will always have the right of way.\nMany Grand Strand courses are searching for a way to increase revenues in a market that has been fairly stagnant. Monahan believes he has found one answer. FootGolf appeals to market that might not have ever visited the Meadowlands.\nFootGolf play will likely be limited to 3-7 p.m. tee times this summer to limit the number of golfers impacted.\nThe 18-hole FootGolf course is approximately 2,400 yards, and it fits on the front nine of the Meadowlands golf course. It takes approximately 90-minutes to play a round. Par threes are typically between 50 and 100 yards, par-4s are 100 to 160 yards, and par-5s are 160 to 240 yards.\nWith the popularity of soccer across the world, this could be quite a success.

        "title": "History \u2013 The National Bar Council of South Africa",
        "raw_content": "The History of the National\nBar Council of South Africa\n1. Evolution of the National Bar Council of South Africa\n(a) Formation of the Independent Association of Advocates of South Africa\nIn 1994 a group of 50 advocates from all over South Africa gathered in Pretoria to discuss the shortcomings in the structure of the advocate\u2019s profession as well as the broader legal profession. Advocates were feeling constrained by the rigours of the existing single Bar. The main issues discussed were the accessibility of the legal profession to the public, the provision of support to advocates who were not members of any Bar and the provision of a flexible yet structured environment for those advocates who did not want to become members of an existing Bar.\nWith the above in mind, it was decided to form a new organization called Independent Association of Advocates of South Africa (IAASA), the forerunner to the National Bar Council of South Africa (NBCSA), with the following principles:\nThe enhancement of the profession by allowing advocates to accept briefs directly from the public;\nHealthy competition between lawyers, including advocates and attorneys, which will translate into a better and more cost-effective service to the public; and\nAssistance to previously disadvantaged individuals to enter the profession without having undue barriers to entry placed on their way.\nIt is no coincidence that IAASA was formed in 1994, the year of our new democracy, as IAASA strongly supports the principles espoused first in the interim constitution and then in the 1996 constitution, and will continue to fight for an accessible legal profession to serve the public and the freedom of members to choose the form of their practice.\nAs the beginning of the bar, Adv De Freitas recalls:\n\u201cI was still in the Department of Justice in 1994 when I came across a Sunday paper advertising the formation of a new legal body called the Independent Association of Advocates of South Africa. This caught my attention. I travelled to Pretoria in September 1994 and was pleasantly surprised to find a large lecture/boardroom packed to capacity with lawyers of all colour. There was genuine excitement in the room. There was the promise/hope of change. The general consensus was that a new legal body of lawyers was desperately needed in our country \u2013 a body capable of representing all the peoples of our country, where all lawyers would be equal. It was the expressed desire of those gathered that this body would counter-weight the dominance of the General Council of the Bar and the Law Society\u201d.\n\u201cIn the spirit of change, the idea of a dual or fused Bar was introduced by a confident and soft-spoken lawyer whom I did not know then, Matthew Klein. This was a new idea which was hotly debated by those present. Some felt that there should be a new, but integrated bar and sidebar. After some discussion, it was accepted that this new legal creature would be cautiously welcomed, along with the rider that IAASA would need to acquire a fidelity fund trust of some sort to protect the public.\u201d\n\u201cAll accepted that change was happening and there was goodwill expressed. Of course, there were dissenting voices who expressed fearful reservations about this change, is easily embraced by the powers that existed at the time. And they were prophetically accurate.\u201d\n\u201cIn attendance on that day were attorneys, advocates as well as legal advisors and other legal persons who were from the republic as well as from the former TBVC\u2019 states. Many, if not most, were seasoned lawyers, for example the then Chief Justice of Venda, the President of the Labour Relations Tribunal, senior attorneys and counsel at the \u201cestablished bars\u201d\nIAASA was invited by the Minister of Justice, Mr D Omar, to attend the National Legal Forum to discuss changes to be made in the legal system. IAASA tirelessly campaigned for a change in the profession, and also served on the Ministerial Task Team on the proposed Legal Practice Bill (now the Legal Practice Act 28 of 2014). It is worth noting that piloting this piece of legislation to fruition took a period in excess of 20 years.\n(b) Litigation against Members of IAASA\nThe newly formed IAASA\u2019s members did not go unchallenged in their boldness. M Klein was threatened to be struck from the role of advocates and Adv J de Freitas faced a court challenge. In the profession, any advocate or advocates choosing to practice independent of the traditional Bar Council were quickly referred to as the rebels, despite IAASA implementing its own rules of ethics and conduct. This was followed by a series of litigation against some members of IAASA.\nAmong these court challenges was Society of Advocates of Natal v De Freitas and Another (Natal Law Society intervening) 1997 (4) SA 1134 (N). In this matter the full Court of the Natal Provincial Division of the High Court found:\nMr De Freitas guilty of unprofessional conduct and suspended him from practice for a period of six months\nDismissed a counter- application by IAASA for an order declaring that any advocate was, alternatively, advocates who are members of IAASA have the right to accept instructions from any person with or without the intervention of an attorney, to perform any functions of an advocate.\nApplication for leave to appeal was dismissed by the Natal High Court. Thereafter Advocate de Freitas and IAASA applied to the Chief Justice (now called President of Supreme Court of Appeal) for leave to appeal. The application was referred to court for argument. Although the Supreme Court of Appeal dismissed the application by De Freitas and IAASA, it is crucial to reflect on the remarks made by the Supreme Court of Appeal in the De Freitas and Another v Society of Advocates and Another 2001 (3) SA 750 (SCA). Hefer ACJ held:\nSince Mr. De Freitas is not a member of the Society of Advocates (Natal) he is neither bound by the latter\u2019s rules( referring to the Society of Advocates (Natal) nor subject to its internal disciplinary jurisdiction (para 5)\nThe referral practice that we know in this country is not that advocates may not under any circumstances accept instructions directly from clients. Various exceptions are allowed one of which counsel may be instructed directly by the Legal aid Board. In other matters, the rules of the various Bars do not correspond in all respects. Advocates in the Western Cape may, for example, take direct instructions for opinions, from a restricted list of clients, which members of others Bars may not do (para 8).\nCameron JA in his separate judgment opined as follows (para 3 of separate judgment)\n\u201cThat the rule (referral rule)is not of unquestioned antiquity, nor of uncontrolled ambit appears from Attorney-general v Thatham 1916 TPD 160 at 168 -9 , where the Full Bench of the Transvaal Provincial Division refused to regard as unprofessional the conduct of advocates in advising a client without the intervention of an attorney and charged a fee for this service.\u201d\nCameron JA remarked as follows: (para7 of separate judgment)\n\u201cThe information supplied to us from the United Kingdom and Australia indicates that in most areas where the division within the legal profession is maintained, the referral rule has been substantially adapted, so that, subject to strict safeguards, specialist litigation practitioners are indeed now entitled to take work directly from the public or sections of it. In this the Bar in our country appears to be behind its peers even in the United Kingdom where, at the English Bar, detailed rules providing for direct access in strictly circumscribed cases now exist\u201d\nCameron JA also held that: (para 10 of separate judgment)\n\u201c I do, however, consider that the Bar should be encouraged to investigate with urgent speed whether accommodations of the referral rule along the lines already practised in comparable jurisdictions should not be introduced were as a means of possible enhancing public access to legal services and reducing the cost of at least some of those services.\n(c) From IAASA to National Bar Council of South Africa\nOn 9 June 2013, the Annual General Meeting of IAASA accepted a name change to be known as the National Bar Council of South Africa or NBCSA.\n2. A reflection on the Legal Practice Act\nThe Legal Practice Act, 2014 was passed in 2014. The NEC of National Bar Council of South Africa participated during the proceedings of the Portfolio Committee on Justice and Constitutional Development when the Bill was processed in Parliament prior to it being passed as an Act of Parliament.\nIn terms of section 96 of the Act, NBCSA has one seat on the National Forum established in terms of the Act. An important development couched in the Act is section 34 (2) of the Act.\nSection 34(2) reads as follows:\n\u201c (2) (a) An advocate may render legal services in expectation of a fee, commission, gain or reward as contemplated in this Act or any applicable law-\nupon receipt of a brief from an attorney; or\nupon receipt of a request directly from a member of the public or from a justice centre for that service, subject to paragraph (b)( emphasis)\nParagraph (b) referred to above reads as follows:\n\u201c(b) An advocate contemplated in paragraph (a)(ii) may only render those legal services rendered by advocates before the commencement of this Act as determined by the Council in the rules if he or she-\nis in possession of a Fidelity Fund certificate and conducts his or her practice in accordance with the relevant provisions of Chapter, with particular reference to sections 84, 85, 86 and 87;\nhas notified the Council thereof in terms of section 30(1)(b)(ii).\nSection 34 (2)(c) reads as follows:\n\u201c An advocate may render legal services in criminal or civil matters in expectation of a fee, commission, gain or reward as contemplated in this Act or any applicable law upon receipt of a request directly from a justice centre for that service, in which event the provisions of paragraph (b) do not apply.\nIn the same vein section 34(3) of the Act provides as follows:\n\u201c(3). The Council must make rules relating to the briefing of advocates-\nby attorneys; and\ndirectly by members of the public.(emphasis)\nA proper construction of section 34 is that an advocate may take instructions directly from the public must be in possession of a Fidelity Fund certificate (section 84 (1) and such advocate must apply to the Council for such certificate as determined in the rules (Section 85 (1). Further, such advocate must operate a trust account (section 86 (1). Such trust account practice must keep proper accounting records containing particulars and information in respect of money received and paid on its own account, any money received, held or paid on account of any person, money invested in a trust account or other interest-bearing account and any interest on money so invested which is paid over or credited to it. (section 87 (1)\nIt is critical to note that the Council will make rules to regulate instances where advocates take instructions from members of the public. The Council has not yet been established. It is envisaged that when the mandate of the National Forum as envisaged in the Act has come to an end, the Council ( South African Legal Practice Council) referred to in Chapter 1 of the Act, will make the rules referred to in section 34 (3).\nAt this stage, advocates are not allowed to take instructions directly from members of the public without the intervention of an attorney.\n3. Developments on relations with other Bars\nOf importance to note is that if complaints are lodged with the General Council of the Bar or any of its constituent Bars against any of our members by members of the public, practitioners or the courts, the GCB refers such matters to NBCSA for investigation and finalization. This is a great improvement on the co-operation between the Bars which indeed promotes the spirit of independence of each Bar.",

        "raw_content": "On Sept. 18th, Brian Cohen and Meredith Messina of Commonfund hosted \u201cUnderstanding Asset Allocation.\u201d The event was the second in this semester\u2019s Robert K. Wilmouth Speaker Series, a number of lectures hosted by NDIGI designed to further students\u2019 knowledge of the science and art of investing. The objective of the event was to explain to students the principles of asset allocation and how to apply those principles to both individual and institution portfolios.\nBrian Cohen has been with Commonfund for over ten years. He currently serves as a Director for the asset management firm. His primary responsibilities include asset allocation recommendations, portfolio oversight and analysis and tactical rebalancing. Prior to his current role, Brian was an Assistant Director, where he was responsible for asset allocation recommendations, portfolio oversight and analysis, and investment policy implementation. Cohen received his B.S. in Business Administration and Management from Bentley University in 2007 before earning his M.B.A. in Finance from Fordham\u2019s Gabelli School of Business.\nMeredith Messina serves as an Associate Director at Commonfund. She is responsible for investor relations and client communications for Commonfund's advisory clients. Prior to her current role, she was a Managing Associate on the Business Development and Management Relationship Teams responsible for client communications. She began her career as a Client Service Associate at UBS Financial Services in Boston. Messina received a B.S. in Finance from Bentley University in 2006.\nAbout Commonfund\nCohen and Messina began their lecture by talking about asset management firm Commonfund. The firm was founded in 1971 with a two-part mission. First, to create investment solutions and access to managers and strategies for nonprofits that could not attain them on their own. As importantly, the firm seeks to also create educational programs that could bring current best practices to institutional investors of all sizes and segments. The mission of Commonfund, said Cohen is \u201cto enhance the financial resources and improve the investment management practices of our clients.\u201d Commonfund has offices in Connecticut, New York, London, San Francisco, and Beijing. The firm has $25.3 billion in assets under management.\nMessina then went on to explain the field of asset allocation. Put simply, asset allocation is an investment strategy that seeks to balance risk and return. It does this by distributing a client\u2019s portfolio\u2019s assets according to a number of \u201callocation layers\u201d: assets, liquidity, currency, and risk. When deciding how to invest a client\u2019s portfolio, asset allocators must look closely at the individual needs and desires of their client. \u201cWhat you have to do,\u201d said Messina, \u201cis take a step back, and realize there are questions you need to ask of your team and of your client. One question we ask is: what is your return target and how can we grow it in the future?\u201d\nApplication of Asset Allocation\nCohen explained that there are two main spheres in which the principles of asset allocation are applied. An individual has specific needs when seeking to diversify their portfolio, and those needs are dependent upon that person\u2019s position in the workforce. A younger person, said Cohen, has a very long time horizon and would likely seek capital appreciation as their main goal. Conversely, a person exiting the workforce is more vulnerable to short-term losses and instead must protect their principal.\nCommonfund, however, provides its services to nonprofit institutions. Cohen gave the example of the University of Notre Dame\u2019s endowment. With total assets of $11.8 billion, the University\u2019s objective is to \u201cmaintain and grow the real value of the portfolio.\u201d The key word in that objective, said Cohen, is \u201creal.\u201d Real value takes into account inflation. Because Notre Dame\u2019s time horizon is perpetuity, it is particularly vulnerable to inflation. Cohen emphasized that real value is \u201cvery important and how you protect against eroding your portfolio.\u201d To obtain this investment objective, Commonfund would focus on the fundamentals of asset allocation, which Cohen explained in the next section of his presentation.\nFundamentals of Asset Allocation and Portfolio Construction\nCapital stewardship, especially for a large institution, is a great responsibility. Perhaps the most important way an asset allocator seeks to create a better portfolio is through diversification, and through attempting to limit equity bias. Equity bias refers to the tendency of investors to invest in one type of equity, or only in domestic equities, while eschewing foreign equities. Cohen and Messina explained that a diversified portfolio\u2013\u2013that is, one that is made up of a variety of investments across a variety of asset classes\u2013\u2013is exceedingly more likely to outperform the market.\nMessina went on to discuss governing documents. A governing document, or investment policy statement (ISP), is an essential part of asset allocation. It is an agreement between the investor and their asset manager concerning return targets, permitted and prohibited investment strategies, and attitudes toward impact investing. \u201cISPs,\u201d said Messina, \u201care living, breathing documents that every institution abides by.\u201d An investment management firm such as Commonfund must abide by this document as well.\nCohen and Messina concluded their lecture with an interactive case study, a hypothetical example of a university endowment. This university\u2019s portfolio value was $50,000,000. Its investment time horizon was perpetuity. The governing document clarified certain risk assumptions and stated there is an expected average annual return of 5.9%.\nThe two demonstrated that the portfolio was well diversified, across both large and small cap US stocks and both foreign and domestic equities. Performance expectations listed a net return assumption (after inflation and fees) of 3.4%. Cohen and Messina asked the audience: \u201cIs this a good asset allocation?\u201d\nThough one may be tempted to answer affirmatively because of the portfolio\u2019s construction, the answer is no. This is because the net return assumption is lower than the expected average annual return of 5.9%.\nTo learn more about Commonfund and asset allocation, visit their website here.",

        "raw_content": "Duke Energy Progress to install 100,000 LED street and area lights across North Carolina\nRALEIGH, N.C. - Duke Energy Progress customers may see some changes in their communities as the utility embarks on a new initiative to modernize outdoor lighting across its service area.\nThe utility received approval this week from the N.C. Utilities Commission to begin replacing more than 100,000 mercury vapor street and area lights with advanced light emitting diode (LED) fixtures.\nThe project is part of the utility'\u0092s Lighting Modernization Program, which seeks to replace mercury vapor fixtures in Duke Energy Progress'\u0092 North Carolina service area over a two-year period beginning October 2014.\nThe utility will soon propose a replacement plan for Duke Energy Progress customers in South Carolina. Duke Energy Carolinas has similar efforts underway.\n\"\u0093We\u0092've heard from our customers that they want more energy-efficient outdoor lighting options and we want to be responsive,\"\u0094 said Emily Henson, Duke Energy'\u0092s director of Outdoor Lighting. \u0093\"This initiative will bring advanced LED lighting to many of the communities we serve. And it will provide positive environmental benefits as we move away from older, less-efficient technologies.\u0094\"\nAbout 25 percent of outdoor lights on the Duke Energy Progress system use mercury vapor fixtures, identifiable by their cool, bluish light. Most of these fixtures were installed decades ago and are nearing the end of their useful life. In addition, advancements in lighting technology and increasingly stringent efficiency standards make mercury vapor lighting largely obsolete.\nIn developing its mercury vapor replacement strategy, Duke Energy Progress solicited feedback from large outdoor lighting customers, including municipalities. The utility also worked closely with the N.C. League of Municipalities to provide LED technologies at reasonable costs for customers.\n\"\u0093We designed a lighting option that is both efficient and economical,\"\u0094 said Henson. \u0093\"In most instances, there will be no additional cost to the lighting customer as a result of the fixture replacements. Many customers will actually experience a price decrease.\u0094\"\nThe replacement project will be conducted by geographic regions, with all lights in one location being replaced before moving to another area. This process will minimize the aesthetic impact on local communities and help to ensure work is conducted as safely and efficiently as possible.\nPlans call for about 9,000 lights to be upgraded each month.\nDuke Energy Progress will work with the N.C. League of Municipalities and affected communities to keep them informed about work schedules and progress.\nThe utility has also committed to investigate and consider new, more efficient lighting options as they become available in the market, and to share those options as part of the utility'\u0092s ongoing commitment to serve outdoor lighting customers.\nAbout Duke Energy Progress\nDuke Energy Progress, a subsidiary of Duke Energy (NYSE: DUK), provides electricity and related services to nearly 1.5 million customers in North Carolina and South Carolina. The utility is headquartered in Raleigh, N.C., and serves a territory encompassing more than 34,000 square miles including the cities of Raleigh, Wilmington and Asheville in North Carolina and Florence and Sumter in South Carolina.

Source: Government Office\nArchbishop Urmas Viilma of the Estonian Evangelical Lutheran Church (EELK) has published his own recommendation to voters in the upcoming general election on 3 March, with the Centre Party leading the field. Mr Viilma's assessment is based on how many of the church's recommendations ended up included in the platforms of the different political parties.\nAs he explains, Mr Viilma worked his way through nine party platforms to find out where exactly\u2014and in how many instances\u2014they intersect with the church's own proposals. The result is a ranking of parties according to Christian preferences as the church sees them.\nIn detail, the archbishop applied a system awarding 0 to 3 points to each political position or proposal of each of the parties he investigated. A proposal going against the church's position, or one that differs entirely, got 0 points. A proposal that goes along with the church's position up to a degree, or comes very close, got 1-2 points. Perfect harmony was awarded 3 points.\nMr Viilma complained on social media that in the case of several parties there was no common ground at all. \"In such a case it wasn't possible to award any points at all,\" he said.\nThe clear winner is the Centre Party with 32 points, followed by Pro Patria with 28 and the Social Democrats (SDE) with 19 points.\nThe Reform Party got 17 points, the Free Party 15 points, the Conservative People's Party of Estonia (EKRE) 14 points and Estonia 200 a meagre 6 points.\nThe archbishop stressed that every Christian voter still needs to make up their own mind. The most important guideline for any such voter remains holy scripture, Mr Viilma said, which should be the basis for any assessment of a candidate or party.\nurmas viilmaestonian evangelical lutheran church2019 riigikogu election",

Stanley Jr.\nSTONY BROOK, NY, September 21, 2016\nPresident Samuel L. Stanley Jr. and 21 Stony Brook students, along with world leaders, activists, change-makers and celebrities recommitted to fast-tracking gender equality at UN Women\u2019s HeForShe second anniversary events on Sept. 20.\nThe events were kicked off with the launch of the first HeForShe IMPACT 10x10x10\nUniversity Parity report, which is the first progress report since 10 leading global universities publicly announced bold commitments to achieve gender parity in academia by 2020. President Stanley is one of 10 university presidents worldwide (and one of two in the U.S.) designated as a HeForShe IMPACT 10x10x10 champion, committing to take bold game-changing action to achieve gender equality within and beyond their institutions. Implementing HeForShe at Stony Brook and among the 64 SUNY campuses throughout New York State is helping to shape the experiences of more than 459,000 students and almost 90,000 faculty and staff, giving Stony Brook University an unprecedented reach to effect positive change.\nBuilding gender sensitization programming and gender equality themes into its mandatory freshman seminar class. As of last fall, 3,000 first-year and transfer students completed formal coursework in gender equality and the HeForShe campaign. \u201cWe will reach 100 percent of our undergraduate students by the 2019 academic year,\u201d said President Stanley.\nOffering the first-ever master\u2019s degree program in \u201cmasculinities studies,\u201d within the University\u2019s Center for Men and Masculinities Studies, becoming a leader in the field.\nThe evening reception, held at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City, was co-hosted by\nIMPACT 10x10x10 Champions\nPresident Stanley and Stony Brook University;\nHis Excellency Sauli Niinist\u00f6, President of Finland;\nand Bob Moritz, Chairman, PricewaterhouseCoopers International Limited.\nAnd included the following guests:\nEmma Watson, British Actor and UN Women Global Goodwill Ambassador;\nTrevor Noah, Host of The Daily Show\nEdgar Ramirez, Actor\nHis Excellency, Shinzo Abe, Prime Minister of Japan;\nHis Excellency, Peter Mutharika, President of Malawi,\nPeter Thomson, President of the United Nations General Assembly;\nPhumzile Mlambo-Ngcuka, Under Secretary-General and Executive Director of UN Women;\nThe HeForShe global solidarity movement for gender equality, commemorated the anniversary with bold commitments, powerful stories of change, and new narratives about what it means to be HeForShe.\n\u201cHeForShe was launched in the conviction that we needed to find the right way for men to get involved in changing the status quo,\u201d Phumzile Mlambo-Ngcuka, UN Under-Secretary-General and Executive Director of UN Women said. \u201cLast night\u2019s activists have shown us how together we really can get rapid,\nincremental results that benefit both women and men. Their work will open new opportunities that reinforce each other in schools, workplaces and wider communities. Millions of men and boys have already signed up for gender equality and now we need to get the next 1 million on board.\u201d\nShowcasing stories of global activists, the MoMA event renewed momentum to create a gender equal world by or before 2030. Highlights from the night included stories about the impact of outlawing child marriage and sending girls back to school in Malawi; how HeForShe IMPACT scholarships are creating more opportunities for girls in the STEM fields; and what happens when college fraternity brothers unite to stop sexual assault. Celebrity activists like Emma Watson and Edgar Ramirez shared their personal stories and explored the universal nature of gender equality.\nStony Brook University joined UN Women\u2019s\nsolidarity movement in\nIMPACT 10x10x10\nwhich aims to mobilize one billion men and boys in support of gender equality.\n\u201cThe reason I have shared my personal journey is that though this is a global movement, it is each of our personal stories and what we choose to do that will make a global difference,\u201d said UN Women Goodwill Ambassador\nEmma Watson at the event. \u201cAnd at this moment in history, there is a unique opportunity and energy for us to win change all over the world.\u201d\n\u201cThere has long been a misconception that gender equality is a women\u2019s movement,\u201d said\nActor Edgar Ramirez\n. \u201cBut gender equality is actually about just that \u2013equality. It is a liberation movement for each and every person that has ever felt the burden of a gender stereotype or the pain of discrimination or the pressure to fit into an uncomfortable mold\nStony Brook University President and University Students\n\u201cEver since Stony Brook made the HeForShe commitment, conversations have skyrocketed, and that\u2019s where HeForShe\u2019s power lies as a movement on college campuses,\u201d said\n\u201817, an Environmental Humanities major. \u201cNow that HeForShe has a presence at the University, my peers and colleagues are curious about, or at least aware of, gender inequality, and that makes cultivating the necessary discussions so much easier.\u201d\n\u201cIt is so exciting to celebrate the second anniversary of the launch of HeForShe,\u201d said\nCharles L. Robbins\n, SUNY UN Women HeForShe Coordinator, Vice Provost for Undergraduate Education and Dean of the Undergraduate Colleges at Stony Brook University. \u201cAs one of only 10 Impact Universities globally Stony Brook University is engaged in addressing gender equality on our campus, within the SUNY system and the world. I am so proud of what we have done and the potential of what we are committed to accomplish.\u201d\n\u201cGetting involved with the HeForShe movement has been an amazing experience for me as it has allowed me to meet and connect with people who are willing to fight for equal human rights. I believe that supporting feminism is supporting basic human rights,\u201d said Saba Khalid \u201917, a Biomedical Engineering major.\nUN Women is the UN entity dedicated to gender equality and the empowerment of women.

        "raw_content": "Why Nigerians are being killed in South Africa \u2013 Ramaphosa\nSouth African President, Mr Cyril Ramaphosa, on Wednesday explained that Nigerians were not deliberately being targeted to be killed in his country.\nRamaphosa gave his view on the troubling issue when he paid a visit to President Muhammadu Buhari in Abuja.\nXenophobic attacks have been going on in South Africa for over a decade with many Nigerians caught in the attacks.\nNo fewer than 117 Nigerians have been killed in South Africa since February 2016.\nThough there have been interventions by Nigerian Mission in South Africa, these killings have persisted.\nIn February, spokesperson of Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Tope Elias-Fatile, said most violent conflicts and killings of Nigerians in South Africa were more of criminal activities than xenophobic attacks as the ministry was in constant touch with Nigerian Mission in that country to get reports of criminal-related issues involving Nigerians.\nWhile speaking to journalists after his meeting with Mr. Buhari, the South African president said the attacks are as a result of criminal activity among his people.\nHe said his government is now focusing on the issue from a criminal element point of view.\nHe added that the attacks are not only against Nigerians and that South Africans do not have any form of negative disposition or hatred towards Nigerians\n\u201cI will like to say here and now that, that has been as a result of criminal activity among our own people which we are focusing on from a criminal element point of view.\n\u201cI want to state here and now that South Africans do not have any form of negative disposition or hatred towards Nigerians. And in the main, Nigerians in South Africa and a number of places in our country live side by side, they cooperate very well and some are in the corporate structures of our various companies and some are traders and some are into a number of things.\n\u201cSo, I want to dispel this notion that when a Nigerian loses his or her life in South Africa, it is as a result of an intentional action by South Africans against Nigerians. That is simply not true,\u201d he said.\nRamaphosa also disclosed that the high level of criminality in his country is as a result of unemployment among his people\n\u201cTwenty-seven per cent of South Africans are unemployed which amounts to about nine million and most of these are young people.\n\u201cPoverty is still all pervasive in South Africa and this emanates from our very sad history of apartheid misrule.\n\u201cThere is still inequality in South Africa, a few people are extremely rich and majority of our people are very poor and all these factors and other social factors have contributed to the high levels of crime. And criminality is something like I said that we are focusing on, doing everything to bring it down,\u201d he said.\nHowever, Ramaphosa said his government had been reducing crime in the country and is working on a concerted basis to ensure that crime goes down.\nThe South African president added that while a great number of South Africans are involved in criminality, many other foreigners, some of whom are Nigerians are also involved.\n\u201cThese are acts of criminality and I want to end by saying that, when we were involved in our struggle, we said that the South Africa that we are fighting for is the South Africa which will regard everyone who lives in South Africa on the basis of equality, respect for human right.\n\u201cAnd we said that South Africa belongs to all the people who live in it. So, the Nigerians who are in South Africa are also part of our community.\n\u201cThey can never be targeted on an intentional basis as people who must either be attacked or killed. And when that happens, l will like all of us to see that as an act of criminality which in the main affect many South Africans in the various parts of our country,\u201d he said.",

        "raw_content": "Harvey Weinstein Terminated From Own Company After Sexual Harassment Allegations\nFiled Under:Harvey Weinstein, sexual harassment, The Weinstein Co.\nLOS ANGELES (CBSNewYork/AP) \u2014 Harvey Weinstein has been fired from his own company, days after an explosive expos\u00e9 revealing decades of sexual harassment against women, from employees to actress Ashley Judd, was published in The New York Times.\nThe Weinstein Co. board of directors announced Sunday that Weinstein had been terminated, effective immediately.\nThe Times article, published Thursday, includes first person accounts of Weinstein\u2019s alleged conduct, including from Judd, who recounts an incident from two decades ago in which she said she was asked to meet Weinstein in his hotel room. Weinstein greeted her wearing a bathrobe and asked her if she would give him a massage or watch him shower, the paper reported.\n\u201cWomen have been talking about Harvey amongst ourselves for a long time, and it\u2019s simply beyond time to have the conversation publicly,\u201d Judd told the Times.\nTwo company officials told the Times that at least eight women have received settlements from Weinstein over the years, including actress Rose McGowan, who allegedly had an incident with him in 1997 when she was 23.\n\u201cThe New York Times published today a story that is saturated with false and defamatory statements about Harvey Weinstein,\u201d Weinstein\u2019s attorney Charles J. Harder said in a statement Thursday. \u201cIt relies on mostly hearsay accounts and a faulty report, apparently stolen from an employee personnel file, which has been debunked by nine different eyewitnesses. We sent the Times the facts and evidence, but they ignored it and rushed to publish. We are preparing the lawsuit now. All proceeds will be donated to women\u2019s organizations.\u201d\nWeinstein on Thursday issued a statement that read in part: \u201cI came of age in the \u201960s and \u201970s, when all the rules about behavior and workplaces were different. That was the culture then. \u201cI have since learned it\u2019s not an excuse, in the office \u2014 or out of it. To anyone. I realized some time ago that I needed to be a better person, and my interactions with the people I work with have changed. I appreciate the way I\u2019ve behaved with colleagues in the past has caused a lot of pain, and I sincerely apologize for it.\u201d\nWeinstein had a powerful perch in Hollywood for three decades, and was known for producing films like \u201cPulp Fiction\u201d and \u201cShakespeare in Love,\u201d for which he won an Oscar, and launching careers of actresses and directors with his company Miramax, which he ran with his brother Bob Weinstein. In 2005, they launched a new production company, The Weinstein Company. His often aggressive tactics were chronicled in the Peter Biskind book \u201cDown and Dirty Pictures.\u201d\nWeinstein has been married to designer Georgina Chapman since 2007, they have two children together. He has three children from his previous marriage.",

        "raw_content": "It\u2019s a Great Time For Aqualipo\nAqualipo: The Lasting Impact\nWhen you elect to get any type of plastic surgery, there\u2019s no doubt that it\u2019s going to end up being a life-changing experience. Everyone has different motivations for wanting a procedure, but it\u2019s usually to help achieve a specific look that they haven\u2019t been able to get through a diet or extensive exercise. Often times, the body will retain fat in certain areas, including the legs, the stomach, and the hips. By choosing to have liposuction, patients can target these areas to get the look they\u2019ve worked so hard for. Here are a few things that can help influence your decision and that are important to know when it comes to the long term implications.\nA Patient-Friendly Procedure\nIt\u2019s safe to say that any type of surgery is going to come with inherent risks, but a lot of people are concerned in particular about elective surgery like liposuction. Fortunately, advances in medicine in the past few decades have made many such surgeries less invasive. Our procedure, Aqualipo, is a combination of Body Jet liposuction with what\u2019s known as \u2018Laser Lipo\u2019, or \u2018Smartlipo\u2019. This FDA approved method only requires a very small laser fiber. How small? It\u2019s actually only slightly larger than the size of a hair. The size and non-aggressive approach to the surgery means that it can be performed without general anesthesia. This is another reason why the surgery can be used in multiple areas of the body. The versatility is what makes it such a popular choice for patients.\nWhy Is It Better Than Traditional Liposuction?\nToo many people think that one liposuction procedure is the same as all the others, but this is far from the truth. It\u2019s not just about the way the procedure is handled, but it\u2019s also about any major side effects that patients are prone to. For example, since there is no general anesthesia required, you\u2019re not going to need to worry about that post surgery grogginess or nausea. Also, since the means of removing fat is so minimally invasive, there is less bruising, less swelling, and lower medical risk to the patient. With less trauma to the surrounding tissue, your recovery time is going to be much shorter, and you\u2019ll be able to get back to your life faster than you realize.\nWhat About CoolSculpting?\nFor those who are concerned about any type of surgery, even if it\u2019s minimally-invasive, an alternative known as \u2018CoolSculpting\u2019 may sound tempting. It freezes fat cells and proceeds to squeeze them using a technology called \u2018Cryolipolysis\u2019. Then, during the next few weeks, the body goes through a natural process of removing the fat cells. The trouble with CoolSculpting is that it does not remove your fat in one go, but rather requires repeat treatments. It also rarely yields the same striking results as liposuction. Instead of having to be treated repeatedly, why not go in for one single minimally-invasive procedure like Aqualipo and leave your fat behind when you leave the building? Most patients are out and about within a few days of their procedure and find it well worth the investment.\nnubodyconcepts2019-01-03T23:55:07+00:00December 25th, 2016|Aqualipo|",

        "raw_content": "Share More When You Make More!\nSCRIPTURE FROM: 2 Corinthians 9:6-8 (Voice)\nTEXT: 6 But I will say this to encourage your generosity: the one who plants little harvests little, and the one who plants plenty harvests plenty. 7 Giving grows out of the heart\u2014otherwise, you\u2019ve reluctantly grumbled \u201cyes\u201d because you felt you had to or because you couldn\u2019t say \u201cno,\u201d but this isn\u2019t the way God wants it. For we know that \u201cGod loves a cheerful giver.\u201d 8 God is ready to overwhelm you with more blessings than you could ever imagine so that you\u2019ll always be taken care of in every way and you\u2019ll have more than enough to share.\nOBSERVATION: Paul gets right to the point about a controversial item in his day. No doubt Paul was faced with envy by some of his church members, one towards another, because of the varying amounts that each could afford to give. Paul addressed this, and because this is still such a hot topic in today\u2019s church, I want us to look deeper into this today.\nAPPLICATION: I believe that we must first look at the example of God to derive our understanding of giving, then perhaps we could understand why we should give, how much we should give, and with what attitude we should give. Bible scholars will know that throughout the Old Testament, people found the need to sacrifice something to God, hoping that in return He would bless them. God saw many flaws with this, so in the New Testament, in John 3:16 God declared that He gave His very own Son (Jesus) as a sacrifice for our sin once and for all. Like any gift ever given to us, our part is to take delivery, or accept that gift, in an attitude of thanksgiving, and make it ours. Of course, we approach the throne, filled with the stains of this world, so we beg for forgiveness and ask Jesus to come into our heart and make us more like Him every day. Once the Holy Spirit enters the heart of a believer, I believe that our conscience becomes very sensitive to the gifts of the Master. For example, already today I can thank God for the ability to \u2018rise and shine\u2019; the opportunity to share the Word with you guys; a job that I could give of myself to my employer so that, in turn, I could earn income to support my family, and give to the needs of God\u2019s children and His church. As shared above, the Christian will normally desire to be more like Jesus every day. So when the subject of giving arises, how much should we give, compared to what Jesus gave? Jesus was willing to give right on up to life itself, as He did on the cross. In today\u2019s society, we know that we could give of our finances and we could give of ourselves in service. God gives us an example of how much we could give financially, but as seen in our verses today, He wants us to give in an attitude of thankfulness and happiness. But how much should I give Brother Ed, because none of us could really give it all like Jesus did for us. I\u2019m so glad you asked, because the Bible suggests that we give 10%. OK, is that 10% of our spendable money \u2013 in other words, after paying all of our bills? Friends, that is something you will decide between you and the Lord, but I give based on my gross salary. After all, God blessed me with it all and while I have obligation to our government for taxes and to repay my loans, none of that would would have been possible had God not blessed me with my job and the good health to do things, like work. There was nothing that was discounted when Jesus went to the cross, He actually gave it all. He has promised to meet all of our needs, if we trust Him, so don\u2019t let Satan tell you otherwise.\nPRAYER: To my all giving, all generous, blessed Savior, thank You for giving, so that I may live eternally with You and the Father. Thankfully You\u2019ve blessed my readers and I with so much, that we want to follow Your example in giving back to Your work here on earth and, in turn, bless those in our community that are much more challenged than we are. Please teach us to follow You faithfully; to give generously; to love unconditionally; and to bless Your work financially; just as You have blessed us in earning the money. May we be obedient in all things, even as you were obedient right up to and including Your cruel death on the cross. May we shine as a Christ-follower, especially in our generosity and obedience to Your Word. AMEN!\nGiving, Share, Thanksgiving, Tithe, Tithing\nRemorse That Leads To A Better Relationship",

        "raw_content": "ANTISOCIAL IMAGES MAKING KIDS NUMB AND NUMB-ER\nNOW that just about everyone in the TV business has acknowledged that TV has contributed to the desensitization of an entire generation of American kids, let\u2019s take a peek at what TV people are doing about it.\nWe\u2019ll have to go fast here, before the next 15-year-old plays show- and-tell with an assault rifle.\nFirst, by way of example, we note that the And 1 company, maker of basketball gear, has, in concert with the NBA playoffs, rolled out a TV commercial starring Latrell Sprewell.\nTell me this: If sports-related advertising doesn\u2019t intentionally choose sports\u2019 worst social acts to sell to children as preferred commodities, then why would And 1 executives and its image-makers choose Sprewell?\nWhile bad-is-good salesmanship is nothing new, the selection of Sprewell to serve as a company\u2019s spokesperson is nonetheless disturbing.\nSprewell, you might recall, joined the Knicks while in the throes of a contrite phase, so terribly sorry that he twice in one day assaulted his coach. While the content of Sprewell\u2019s And 1 commercial doesn\u2019t ignore his repugnant past, neither does it demonstrate his contrite side. Quite the contrary.\nTo the grinding background of Jimi Hendrix\u2019 version of the national anthem, Sprewell is seen having his hair braided. He speaks:\n\u201cI\u2019ve made mistakes, but I don\u2019t let them keep me down. People say I\u2019m what\u2019s wrong with sports. I say, I\u2019m a three-time NBA All-Star. People say I\u2019m America\u2019s worst nightmare. I say, I\u2019m the American dream.\u201d\nExactly what is the message here about Sprewell, And 1 and America?\nIt says that Sprewell doesn\u2019t much care about his sordid past, what most matters to him (as well as the Knicks) is that he\u2019s a talented basketball player. The ends, as always in sports and television, justify the means.\nIt also says that And 1 didn\u2019t choose Sprewell in spite of his past, but because of it.\nIt says that America\u2019s standards have become so corrupted that a Sprewell can help move product far better than a talented athlete with a clean reputation.\nBut if the And 1 execs and their advertising folks really wanted to create a daring, desensitized message, why didn\u2019t they just cut to the chase and list Sprewell\u2019s activities after the episodes that left P.J. Carlesimo\u2019s neck so hideously bruised? Why not mention that he was arrested and sentenced to three months\u2019 house arrest for reckless endangerment in one of his 10 or so (he loses count) cars?\nI wonder if And 1\u2019s execs and ad men would be as eager to make Sprewell their main man if they\u2019d been on the receiving end of Sprewell\u2019s choke-hold, or if their families had been victims of Sprewell\u2019s reckless endangerment.\nBut what\u2019s the use? For all the talk, it doesn\u2019t end. It only keeps getting worse. This past Friday morning, the \u201cRegis and Kathie Lee\u201d show continued to promote pro wrestling, TV\u2019s top-rated purveyor of violence, lurid sex, hatred and profanity to American children.\nRegis Philbin and Kathie Lee Gifford regularly \u2013 and cheerfully \u2013 provide aid, comfort and promotion to pro wrestling. Quite clearly, based on countless appearances of pro wrestlers in the recent past, they fully endorse pro wrestling and how it attracts and entertains our children.\nWhat\u2019s particularly interesting about Philbin\u2019s and Gifford\u2019s enthusiasm for pro wrestling is that Ms. Gifford is a proud mother of young children, a celebrated children\u2019s activist and a deeply religious woman. Social sensitivity is one of her specialties.\nFriday, once again, Philbin and Gifford booked \u201cStone Cold\u201d Steve Austin, the WWF\u2019s biggest star. Austin, without question, currently exists as the most renowned violent person in the lives of North American children.\nThat certainly doesn\u2019t rhyme with Ms. Gifford\u2019s passion for doing right by children, our most impressionable and, therefore, our most vulnerable, citizens.\nBeyond that, Austin performs in his trademark \u201cStone Cold 3:16\u201d shirt, a shirt and slogan marketed \u2013 and very successfully \u2013 to American kids. Virtually every boy in my neighborhood wears a \u201cStone Cold 3:16\u201d shirt.\n\u201cAustin 3:16\u2033 derived from a WWF angle that mocks the Biblical quotation from the New Testament\u2019s Book of John. But religious ridicule is part of Austin\u2019s wildly popular character and just one part of the WWF\u2019s desensitized \u2018entertainment\u201d values that has brought record ratings and God knows what else.\nMs. Gifford\u2019s steady promotion of Austin doesn\u2019t rhyme with her regard for religion. Put it this way: Why doesn\u2019t Ms. Gifford have Stone Cold appear on one of her Christmas specials wearing his \u201cAustin 3:16\u201d shirt?\nBeyond that, Austin\u2019s trademark \u201chi\u201d sign is the raised middle finger. He often stands on the ropes and raises both middle fingers to a cheering on-site audience of children and millions more at home watching on USA Network. Apparently it doesn\u2019t bother Philbin or Gifford that kids are being suspended from school for emulating Stone Cold.\nFurthermore, if Austin is worthy of repeated appearances on \u201cRegis and Kathie Lee,\u201d why doesn\u2019t Ms. Gifford insist that her audience experience exactly what kids experience from Austin within WWF shows? Why doesn\u2019t she show clips of Austin\u2019s trademark, middle-fingered salute?\nBetter yet, why doesn\u2019t she ask Austin to demonstrate it? He\u2019s right there.\nBut that, of course, would be inappropriate for a national TV audience in large part comprised of women at 9 a.m. So then why is it appropriate for a national TV audience in large part comprised of children at 9 p.m.?\nYep, TV folks now acknowledge that TV has played a significant role in desensitizing our children.\nThat\u2019s why this summer FX Cable is adding a Toughman Contest, a program designed to entertain young audiences and generate ratings through the sight of anonymous brawlers given three one-minute rounds to punch in each other\u2019s heads.\nThis fall, UPN/Channel 9 is adding a two-hour WWF show. It\u2019ll air right before Channel 9\u2019s news. But that\u2019s OK, by September we\u2019ll all be so desensitized to stories about violent kids that high-school massacres will have lost their standing as big news.\nCATINCA AIMS TO BAG SHUVEE",

The program is made up of young adults, between the ages of fourteen and eighteen, who live in the first due response area of the Ocean City Volunteer Fire Company. Cadets assist the fire company on all incidents, and play a major role in establishing water supplies, deploying small tools and equipment, facilitating rehabilitative operations, and assisting with many exterior operations. The program meets every Monday evening from October through Memorial Day, to conduct regular business meetings and training exercises.\nThe goal of the Cadet Program, as a whole, is to provide operational support to the Volunteer Fire Company. While providing that support, the program aims to instill confidence and respect in its members, teaching them the skills necessary to function efficiently within the fire service. Each member is provided the opportunity to experience leadership roles, by either being elected to an administrative leadership position by their peers, or by being assigned an operational leadership role by a panel of instructors. The Cadet Program is an excellent opportunity for young people from our community to come together, learn life-saving skills, grow as individuals, and have fun!\nThe Cadet Program is always looking for new members who are anxious to learn, make new friends and make a difference within their community. We would love to talk more with prospective members about the benefits we offer, and how we can work together to keep our community a safe and fun place to live. Note: Cadets must live in the first due response area of the Ocean City Volunteer Fire Company.\nFollow link to see fire district: http://ocvfc.com/page/coverage-area\nIf you have any questions, or would like to discuss the possibility of joining our outstanding program, please contact any instructor through Ocean City Fire Headquarters, (410) 289-4346.\nFF Scott Shuster, Lead Instructor Lt.

        "raw_content": "Cliff Richard, Privacy and the Data Protection Act\nPosted on: July 23rd, 2018 by O'Garra's in News\nIn July 2014 the BBC filmed a search of Sir Cliff Richard\u2019s property by the South Yorkshire Police. He was not arrested for any offence.\nSouth Yorkshire Police provided the BBC with information that enabled them to be present at the scene. The disclosure given was that he was under investigation and the date, time and place of the intended search. Sir Cliff sued both the police force and the BBC in privacy and under the Data Protection Act 1998.\nThe police force admitted liability and agreed to pay him \u00a3400,000 in damages.\nThe BBC said that the information was volunteered to them by the police and denied any liability. The case as far as the police and Sir Cliff was concerned was that the police were manoeuvred into providing it from a fear and implicit threat that the BBC might or would publish news of the investigation prior to the search taking place.\nThe court rejected the BBC\u2019s case saying that Sir Cliff had privacy rights in respect of the police investigation and that the BBC infringed those rights without legal justification. As Sir Cliff won his case on the privacy case, there was no need to rule on the data protection issue.\nSir Cliff was awarded both special and general damages. The Court did not agree with all sample instances provided for the special damages which will be ruled upon later if an agreement is not reached. General damages were awarded to cover the general effect on him and his life. The damage caused was said to be substantial, and \u00a3190,000 was awarded, aggravated damages of \u00a320,00 were added as the BBC nominated its footage for a television award as \u201cScoop of the Year\u201d.\nThe BBC will pay for the aggravated damages, as the BBC was much more responsible than the South Yorkshire Police they will pay 65% of the damages that both parties are liable for, with the police paying the remainder.\nWhat are the wider implications of this judgment?\nCommentators are split as to whether this case turns on its own facts, linked as it is to a very high-profile case and person, or whether it impacts more widely and will lead to greater privacy protections for others being investigated. In our view it is too early to tell what the wider impact will be, but many clients will be interested in exploring options for ensuring early-stage police investigation are not leaked to the press. We take the view that where the leaking of an investigations is a risk, an early warning shot to the police may be required.\nIf you need advice in relation to any criminal law issue, then please contact us on 0113 247 1477 or email us at [email protected].",

        "raw_content": "Home / Jerry Lucas\nBasketball Legend to Education Innovator\nJerry Lucas is one of the greatest basketball players in the history of the game. Lucas is one of only three players in history to win championships at every level (high school, college, NBA, Olympics); was named one of the Top Fifty players in NBA history; and named one of the Top 15 All-Time March Madness Players. However, it is his work off the court that he is most passionate about.\nBefore becoming \u201cDr. Memory\u2122\u201d, the leading authority on memory training and learning systems, Lucas became a legend on the hardwood. It started in high school in Middletown, OH. He was the only three-time Ohio High School Player of the Year, a three-time First Team All-American and a two-time National Player of the Year. His team won two State Championships and amassed an incredible 76 game winning streak.\nWhile every university in the country was vying for his talents, Lucas stayed at home to play for Ohio State and the legend grew. He was a three-time All-American and a three-time Big Ten Player of the Year while leading Ohio State to a National Championship in 1960. With an unmatched combination of scoring and rebounding prowess, Lucas was the only player to lead the nation in rebounding and field goal percentage three times; was the only player to have 30 points and 30 rebounds in an NCAA tournament game, as well as the only player to ever achieve those astounding numbers against a UCLA team coached by the great John Wooden.\nLucas closed out his amazing collegiate career twice being named National Player of the Year; as the leading rebounder in Big Ten History; a three-time First Team All-American, and in what seemed to be a foreshadowing of the future, he graduated Phi Beta Kappa from Ohio State. In 1999, Sports Illustrated named Lucas one of the five most outstanding college basketball players of the 20th century when he was named to their Team of the Ages.\nThe greatness on the court continued when he represented our country in the 1960 Olympic Games. Lucas helped Team USA capture the gold medal as he led the team in scoring and rebounding. Lucas holds the Olympic field goal percentage mark at an astounding 84% shooting.\nThe next stop for Lucas was the National Basketball Association as he continued to shine. He was named NBA Rookie of the Year for the 1963-64 season with the Cincinnati Royals. While playing in his home state, he was one of the league\u2019s most popular players, and one of its best. When Cleveland was trying to secure an NBA franchise, they had the Royals play several games in the city due to Lucas\u2019 popularity and that, ultimately, helped Cleveland secure the Cavaliers as an expansion franchise.\nDuring his career Lucas was a 7-time All-Pro, was the NBA All-Star Game MVP and is the only forward in league history to pull down 40 rebounds in a game. In 1973, he was a member of the New York Knicks World Championship team. He retired from the game with time remaining on his contract to pursue his passion of education. Lucas was inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame in 1979.\nLucas\u2019 passion for education and memory was evident from childhood and grew throughout his life. As a boy, he constantly challenged himself with mental games to test his memory. He learned early on that the key to being a successful student took knowing not only how to learn, but also how to retain that learned information.\nLucas, a self- described \u201cMad Scientist\u201d when it comes to learning and education, developed a system known as The Lucas Learning System\u2122 and has earned him the title of Dr. Memory\u2122. Through the years, he has taught his memory retention and learning system to millions through seminars, appearances and through sales of his books and CDs. The Memory Book, which he co-authored, was a New York Times Best-Seller and sold over 3.5 million copies.\nDr. Memory\u2122 is now widely regarded as the world\u2019s leading authority in memory training and learning systems. Lucas\u2019 proven methods encompass his concept known as Learning That Lasts\u2122.\nToday, Lucas is taking his learning and memory system to a new level with Dr. M\u2019s Universe\u2122. This interactive web-based digital platform is geared towards making learning fun and easy for kids and adults.",

Additional topics covered include a chapter on the future of biological and technological innovation, as well as a chapter on p-branes.\nDespite these improvements, the layout of the new book feels uncomfortably disjointed for the subject matter \u2013 the meaty parts of the text are interrupted by large pictures, captions and info boxes. I actually prefer the drier, straightforward presentation of A Brief History. Additionally, I feel that many parts of this book are not as clearly communicated and I missed the tone of charming humility and open-mindedness that was evident in such abundance in the older version.\nThe illustrator\u2019s website is definitely worth a look.\n[Why I read it: I was looking for a more modern Hawking book with which to follow the aged A Brief History of Time.]\nWritten by omniRambles Posted in Book Reviews\tTagged with quantum physics, science, stephen hawking, universe in a nutshell\nForever Rumpole",

        "raw_content": "Market Segmentation of Travel Mode Choice with an Alternative Source of Travel Time Data\nAlbab Un NoorFollow\nDr. Nicholas Lownes, Dr. Karthik Konduri, Dr. John Ivan, Dr. Amy Burnicki\nTransit ridership has been declining in the United States and is losing market share to private automobiles (Taylor, 2013). Moreover, transportation is now the largest contributor of GHG emissions in the country (EPA, 2018), the bulk of which comes from private automobiles. One effective strategy to reduce GHG emissions from this sector is to nudge people to use public transportation. This is a nontrivial task as the literature on the factors affecting transit usage is surprisingly uneven. It is therefore important to study the characteristics of the travelers in a particular region and understand what influences their travel choices to find possible ways to increase transit mode share. The objective of this thesis is to investigate this topic using an advanced modeling framework and an alternative source of travel time data. Firstly, this thesis explores the use of travel times retrieved from Google Maps over the traditionally used highway and transit skims retrieved from regional travel demand models. It was shown that Google Maps API provides a more accurate representation of the network and result in better choice sets for individuals. Secondly, the concept of market segmentation was applied for investigating travel mode choice in the Hartford metropolitan area using a Latent Class Choice Model (LCCM). Latent classes are formed based on the characteristics of the travelers and choice models are estimated to model their choice behavior. A model with four classes was estimated for this study where only one of segments was multimodal in their choice of travel mode, the rest being auto-dependent. But they are\ndistinguishable by their sensitivity to transit level of service, as one auto-dependent segment is highly sensitive to transit service whereas others are not. It was found that some segments of the population are likely to respond to transit service improvements, and some segments are unlikely to respond. This thesis examines the characteristics of these segments to understand their choice behavior. Insights from the study can be used to develop strategies to increase public transit mode share.\nNoor, Albab Un, \"Market Segmentation of Travel Mode Choice with an Alternative Source of Travel Time Data\" (2018).

        "raw_content": "There may be some debate as to who the greatest male distance runner of all time is, as both Haile Gebrselassie and Kenenisa Bekele have pretty impressive (and in my mind, equivalent) resumes. But one thing is certain, Haile Gebrselassie has done much more outside of running than his countryman.\nAs this article illustrates, Haile Gebrselassie is far from just a distance runner these days. He is also the head of a construction company that builds \"cinemas, convention centres, petrol stations, schools, sports stores, cafes and fitness centres\" as well as the Chairman of the Great Ethiopian Run, an event with over 32,000 participants. He's also a father of three. (You can also see some videos of Haile's daily life at the link in his name above.)\nI more or less knew that, though. Two new things struck me from this article. First, Haile's efforts on behalf of women in Ethiopia should be praised more publicly. I have read extensively about Haile, but didn't know about this aspect of his business. My admiration for Haile the person continues to grow.\nSecond, think of the focus that Haile must apply to his daily activities in order to achieve the level of success that he's reached. It's one thing to run a great marathon, and quite another to do so while holding down a full-time job. I have no doubt that Haile's built a great team around him at his company. But to be able to continually excel at his running despite the myriad distractions that inevitably arise when running a business is extraordinary.\nI have long been of the opinion that the best athletes are able to excel not because of physical talent or how hard they work, but because of how focused they are when they are working hard. Haile is a man whom one can easily see falling into the \"Multi-Tasking\" or \"Over-Extended\" categories of The Engagement Scale. But you can tell from his performances that he never does.\nHe manages to stay firmly \"Committed\" to his running, if not \"All-Consumed\". With everything else in his life, that can only be accomplished through unparalleled focus. When he trains, he uses his time and energy as effectively and efficiently as possible. And when he isn't training, he obviously approaches his other commitments with an equal focus.\nPosted by Bryan on October 22, 2008 at 05:48 AM | Permalink | Comments (0) | TrackBack (0)\nI just got off the phone with my wife, and I was more than a little peeved. She has an assessment for a possible promotion today, and she hasn't been studying enough for it.\nThere's no one reason why. She's been busy with other things. She's been lazy. She lost her study materials when her baggage was lost by Alaska Airlines. Etcetera etcetera. I also think she secretly doesn't want to be promoted, because the job will take her away from dealing with passengers (something she loves) and put her in a position where she won't deal with passengers.\nAll of these reasons have contributed to her not being as ready as she should be for this assessment. But what peeved me was that, despite still having four hours and study materials available to her online, she felt it was \"too late.\" My response: Chigaimasu. (Translation: Uh, no.)\nWhether she doesn't want the promotion or she's just resigned herself to not getting it doesn't matter. She will be assessed today, and she will be evaluated based on that assessment. And she won't be as ready as she could have been.\nEven if you are in a less than ideal position you should still be taking every opportunity to be as prepared as you can be given your circumstances. This goes for work assessments, school tests, international negotiations and dual meet two-mile races. \"It's too late\" is saying that preparation is an all or nothing thing. It isn't.\nThere is a bigger picture aspect to this as well. Will three hours of studying make a difference? Maybe not. Probably not. I have no idea. But it's never too late to start developing a good habit. It's never too late to say, \"I'm going to get the most out of this that I can.\" It's never too late to begin developing an Optimal Training approach.\nYou may not see the effects today, but you will see them later. Champions know this. People who achieve excellence don't worry about the end result so much as how they approach the challenge. They focus on using their time and energy as well as they can, and they evaluate their performance on that criteria.\n**Update: She did study a little. And I learned something, too. Did you know Drambuie is a honey and herb-flavored golden scotch whiskey liqueur? You did? Well whoopty-frickin-doo!**\nEfficiency v. Effectiveness\nThere are essentially two approaches to getting better at something. You can do something better, or you can do something else. The first is being more efficient, the second is being more effective.\nFor example, say you're training for a 5k and you're running two interval workouts and a tempo run every week, as well as a few road runs. Well, one approach to getting better is to continue doing the same workouts and to focus on getting more out of them. We all do this, because we all strive to get the most out of our workouts. But there's another approach that we sometimes fail to consider. That is doing something else entirely. Rather than an interval workout, how about some hill repeats?\nAm I recommending we all substitute hill repeats for intervals? No, of course not. If you're coached, there should be a reason behind everything you're doing. But in those areas where you don't have a coach watching over you it is very easy to fall into a routine, and it is very hard to continue getting more and more efficient at something over time. As competitive distance runners, we're looking for an edge. Incremental improvement is necessary, but sometimes we can get a lot more out of a bigger change.\nAt some point, all runners need to consider doing something different, be it run longer, run faster, run differently or (gasp!) not run. (Maybe that cross-training session is a good idea.) And this doesn't simply apply to running, either. It applies to all aspects of training, including stretching, sleeping, eating, and balancing other responsibilities (school, work, family...). Heck, it applies to your whole life.\nYou can try to eat your double cheeseburger and super-size fries more efficiently, but you should probably be considering another meal altogether.\nYou can try to make five hours of sleep more restful by optimizing your pillow placement, or you can go to bed earlier and get your full eight hours.\nYou can try to maximize your lunch break by running 30 minutes everyday, or you can take two days a week and run 20 minutes harder with a few strides at the end mix it up.\nOr, for example, if your junk mail problems are interfering with your life training, you can try to read it all more efficiently, or you try to be more effective and save yourself precious time and energy. (I wish my grandma used the internet...alas...)\nThink about your training critically. First, ask yourself whether you're even doing the right behaviors in the first place. Chances are, there are changes you can make for the better. There always are. They aren't always fun, and they are never easy to sustain, but they can be made. As you look at the little diagram I drew above, note that I drew effective changes as little islands or stepping stones. I did that on purpose. You can't go from zero to Optimal Training in one jump. Not because it's impossible but because it's not sustainable. What you need to do is make one change, develop that into a habit, and then consider another change. For example, don't try to up your mileage, change you diet, sleep more, do more weight training, and start keeping a training log all at the same time. Just start going to bed earlier. When you've got that under control, pick another area in which to improve.\nAfter you've developed the most effective training behaviors, then focus on how you can make them more efficient. That is, only after you're sleeping eight hours should you worry about optimal pillow placement. The hardest part of Optimal Training is managing the process within the context of your life. You will always be able to improve your efficiency. And you'll always have to. But you're wasting a lot of time and energy if you're trying to optimize the wrong behaviors in the first place.\nOptimal Training in one sentence: Doing the most effective training the most efficient way possible. It sounds simple but it's the hardest thing in the world to do on a consistent basis.",

        "raw_content": "Longitudinal studies seminar - video transcript\n(Susan Morton - the Principal Investigator of New Zealand\u2019s contemporary longitudinal study of child development, Growing Up in New Zealand.)\nSo, kia ora tatou. It's lovely to be here. Thank you for that introduction and I have 20 minutes to tell you all about growing up in New Zealand and some transition. So I'm known to be quite hyperactive so I hope you can keep up. And I'm really looking forward to hearing from Damian and having a chance to engage with you in the question time. I will come back to explain the title, \"Transforming Ordinary into Extraordinary\" at the end. Those are not my words but I think they're appropriate when we're thinking about longitudinal studies generally. So we'll come back to that.\nSo what I thought I'd do is just give you a very brief context, a very brief introduction, to growing up in New Zealand, understanding that many of you will know lots about this study already, and some of you may not be quite so familiar. So I am going to actually go quite quickly through it, but just to give you a basis to understand some of the results that I will then present to you.\nSo going back to the beginning, growing up in New Zealand was set up by a group of 16 government agencies actually to understand what was shaping contemporary child development in New Zealand. It was absolutely built on the foundations and the success of the Dunedin and Christchurch study and on the longitudinal studies that were coming out of the UK and Europe and the understanding that actually following the same group of children and families over time could provide evidence that really had utility to help inform policy across sectors and ultimately improve wellbeing of all of our population. So the study was really set up because it was recognised that New Zealand was a very different place than it had been in the 1970s when the other studies were established. So important things about this cohort is that firstly it's a lot larger than those earlier studies, it's nearly 7000 children. That's important because we need to have the statistical power to capture the diversity of our population and of course our ethnic diversity is completely different to what it was 40 or 50 years ago, in terms of Maori Pacific, in terms of the proportion of the population, but also increasing multi ethnic diversity, and I'll talk about it in a second. So one of the very important things in setting this new study up was to make sure we had explanatory power for our Maori children, for our Pacific children and for our increasing group of New Zealand Asian children. So you'll see one in four Maori, one in five Pacific, one in six Asian and still two-thirds New Zealand European. Now that was what the parents told us their children were going to be before they were born or what they thought they would be. So obviously listening to the children themselves is also critically important and we're about to do that which is super exciting. Now even those of you that didn't do maths at school will know that that means that most children now, actually now that they're eight, are identifying with more than one ethnic group and their identity is expected to potentially change over time. So it's really important. We recruited in pregnancy, that was a little bit challenging, but also something we felt was important because that peri natal period is critically important for shaping development of children after they're born. The beginning of the first thousand days. So we wanted to actually make sure we were capturing that in this cohort a little bit different than the earlier studies certainly different than the other growing up studies around the world which have started when their children around about nine months old. We also recruited dads from the beginning, Dad's a matter too. So not all mums gave us the contact details for their dads but where they did we recruited dads, and those dads have actually -- or the numbers of dads, which sounds a bit weird, has actually increased over time. I'm sure that's not actually the case but the number involved in the study has increased over time. We have been able to retain contact with this diverse cohort well through their pre-school years, it's proving to be more challenging as they enter school. But it's been an important part of the study and we are very interested in this idea of understanding the gap that exists between policy, which sits at the outer ring of our conceptual framework here about child development, and what's actually happening for the children in the cohort, with all of those layers in between. So we're interested in measuring child development. They are central to the group that we're following, but we also understand that children develop in dynamic interaction with all of these different environments around them and that changes over time, which is why you see a double puddle model, which is what we affectionately call this little picture here.\nSo here's a little cartoon that talks about the things that we've done to date. I was talking to my comms manager yesterday who said we now have completed over 90000 interviews and we have over 50 million pieces of data. So it's been a long exercise and a really rich data datasets - bless you - is now there for analysis, and one of the things that we're excited about as well is the opportunity to actually have this dataset more widely used so that we can understand what's happening for our children and actually fulfil that promise of informing policy. So lots more opportunities to do that.\nI'm not going to go through this in huge detail but what you can see in the cartoon I hope is that we've engaged with mums and dads which is the two stick figures facing each other, from pregnancy, nine months, two years, and then mums at four and a half. We've also had the strange thing that looks like a phone now but won't for much longer where we've contacted families in between these contacts to try and find them, because they move all the time, which I'll talk to you about as well and I'm sure that's familiar to many of you working with children and families. As well as that we've measured the children. Important to know their growth, their cognition, their behaviour. So we've measured them at routine intervals. We've had linkage to routine data sets from before the IDI was a thing, but now increasingly looking at how we can actually use that IDI linkage as well, because that's a fantastic unique resource that we have in New Zealand at the moment.\nAnd alongside that we've taken biological samples. So a little bit of spit at four and a half, a lot of lunch, and now we've got DNA for our children which is fantastic, and we've got cord blood from when they were born and we're collecting it again at eight. So we have a way to actually understand nature and nurture, not nature or nurture, for these children as they develop as well.\nNow when we think about child development the study from the beginning, but like Dunedin, has always been multidisciplinary. We're not just interested in one facet of development, we're interested in how this child grows up in terms of its interconnectedness of influence of domains but also outcomes. So this is a little cartoon that we put up. It's interwoven deliberately to demonstrate the sorts of things that we're thinking about when we think about child development. So, yes, it includes health and wellbeing and wellbeing is an important concept at the moment and that's been an important concept from the beginning. A holistic view of that, not just free of disease, but we're also interested in things like education aspirations for education engagement and ECE(?) transition to school. I'll talk a little bit about that at the end. But alongside that we're interested in behaviour, we're interested in psychosocial development, we're interested in the family and the dynamics of the household. And importantly we're interested in the culture and identity of that family initially and then of the child. And I just want to explore that a little bit more because that's something that's quite unique about this study. The size of the study allows us to look at this in a way that I think we probably haven't been able to before and it is really complex. So here's just a little picture that actually one of our children in the study drew, you can see that their spelling left a little bit to be desired at four and a half. One of the things we were doing was checking what their readiness for school was. But actually a lovely graphic. And this is really here just to illustrate that when we think about that domain in particular and when we think about ethnic identity or any other identity it is a very complex construct. So when you see our results or others results that break findings down by ethnicity, there's actually a lot of complexity that sits under this. And we're doing quite a lot of work at the moment to say what difference does it make according to which sort of identity we put into our, models for example.\nSo we ask mums and dads a lot of questions before the children were born about their own background, about their own identity, about their expectations for their children. But equally we go back and ask that again of the parents and then of the children themselves as they're growing up. So all of the things that you see listed there are part of that domain and there are many more. So we have a way to explore really what it means to identify with a particular ethnic group which I think is part of understanding what creates the inequalities.\nSo just to show you an example of how complex that gets when we start thinking about this generation, here's just quite a simple example, actually, of our Maori cohort. So one in four of the parents said that their children would identify, they expected their children to identify as Maori. But when you break that down from the 1,617 children who were in that category you find that mum and dad only agreed on that 50% of the time and that the other 50% of the time sometimes the mums said that and sometimes the dad. Less often the dad. And they have changed their mind over time and the child will change their mind over time. So when we're thinking about ethnicity in a model, firstly we're thinking is it parental ethnicity and is it both, and do they agree or not. It's going to be quite interesting to see whether the children agree with their parents and they'll be telling us that this year.\nSo that's part of the complexity, I think, just to keep in the back of your mind whenever we present any figures by ethnicity, it's really important to think about what that is. And we try and let the cohort tell us themselves who they think they are, rather than us trying to figure that out independently or objectively or subjectively. But we have multiple ways of measuring it. So just a little sort of note before we get into it. Okay.\nSo what I want to do now is just to go through actually quite quickly some of the things that have stood out for us from the first five years of data, some of that pregnancy through to four and a half, readiness for school, and just pick out some of the key features. And I realize a few of you will have heard bits of this before, so I'm just going to go through it quite quickly and then I'm going to focus on one or two things about transitions and about vulnerability that I hope will sort of dig in to some of these results a little bit more.\nSo I think the first thing to say -- well, first thing to say is actually that all these children are in the cohort. So we always want to acknowledge the cohort when we speak here. I'm just the mouthpiece for all of these wonderful families and children. These are mostly families who did not want their children to be identified and we respect that. But we have a group of about 50 who've said we can use their photo. So these are used with permission and they are children who are in the study, so important to acknowledge that. So if you happen to have a child in the study and you see your child I hope you remember signing the form. Otherwise sue me or see me later.\nSo this is the group of children -- this is to remind me that actually while we're going to focus on many of the things that are actually not going so well for our children, it is important to recognize that most of the parents say that their children are thriving. So around 80% to 90% of the parents are actually quite happy with how the children were doing in the preschool period. Now that may not mean that they've achieved their full potential, but the parents are happy that they are developing well. And we quite often forget that when we focus on the negative, although we must focus on the negative because we want to fix it. But it's important to note that I think. The other reason for putting this up is that 97% of the children by the time they were getting ready to start school had engaged in some form of early childhood education. So that's a good figure. 98% was the Ministry target. That had changed over time and we have a full audit of that ECE experience which we're looking forward to somebody coming and sitting alongside and hopefully investigating that more because there's a huge amount of information in there to be looked at, in terms of what that journey means for readiness for school and transition in to school. We also look at engagement with services. So we know, and you will know better than I do in many cases, that there are many services that are targeted to our preschoolers. Some of those are free, in fact many of them are free, including 20 hours of free ECE, but also things like oral health checks and well child checks and so on. So we want to know whether those services that are designed to reach these children are actually getting to those who have the most need and whether they're actually reaching the target population. So this was about oral health. So we looked at engagement and the free oral health check, because it is free. And unfortunately we found that only 70% of the children had actually undergone a free oral health check before they started school. And when we broke that down to our Maori and Pacific, remembering all those things about complexity of those groups, we found that the rate was even lower.\nSo only about half of our Maori children and a third of our Pacific children had taken advantage of that free check. So it's not all about cost is sort of the message there. It's also about all the other access and how we enable access and so on. So those are some of the things that we can dig into with this data directly from the families and the children. Something that we were really quite upset about actually was the rate of bullying that was reported by these families. One in three mums reported that the children were regularly picked on or bullied by other peers before they started school and there were 10% who reported that persistently since two. Now it's Mum's report at this stage and obviously we're following up with the children themselves at eight. But given the rates that we see in adolescence we're worried that bullying and the tolerance of bullying are starting early. So we were concerned that so many parents were saying that their children were being bullied and picked on and it wasn't just once this was a persistent bullying.\nSo we will follow that up with the children and also see what else we might be able to do around that. Because we follow the children obviously in the context of their parents and families we can look very much at the well-being of the parents and that's critically important for these children in their first thousand days but also their pre-school years and actually probably all the way through to adulthood. And one of the things again that we were saddened by, I guess, was the rate of depressive symptoms that we saw in our mums. So one in five mums of the preschoolers had experienced some depressive symptoms at some point between late pregnancy and five. That rate was one in eight in pregnancy and actually one in 12 postnatally. And there was a lot of churn in that, as I'll show you shortly, there's a lot of movement in and out of these things but actually if mum's experiencing those symptoms, her capacity to then look after her child is diminished.\nAnd dads also got the blues more than we would expect for fathers or men of the same age in the population who were not about to have a child. They were likely to be more depressed after the child was born rather than before, which was opposite to the mums. And if Dad was depressed Mum tended to have a higher likelihood of being depressed as well. If Mum was depressed it didn't seem to make any difference to Dad. Make of it what you will. Part of what we can also do because it's really important is to track the household. So these children are not developing in isolation, they develop in the context of a family. So we're interested in their parents' well-being but we're also interested in who else is in the household and how that household structure is potentially changing over time. What difference that makes, who's coming in and out of these children's lives, and some of the parents do change and some of them are not biological parents as you will understand.\nSo there are lots of different transitions going on. In one and four of the children at birth was actually living in an extended family situation and one and five at four and a half. So a large proportion of the children are actually being influenced not just by Mum and Dad but by many other people, often grandparents, aunties, uncles and other people living in the house. Something I think we probably have not thought enough about in the policy space in terms of who's influencing what's happening for these children and who's available to potentially be transferring knowledge or skills or even cultural knowledge to these children. So digging into those general results a little bit I think one of the things that was potentially most surprising and continues to surprise us, because this is a population study not just a vulnerable population, which we'll get to shortly, is how incredibly mobile these families are. So in the first two years of life we had one in two of the children had moved at least once in terms of their family moving house. Between two and four another 50% of the cohort had experienced at least one residential move. So by the time the children had got to four and a half only one in three of all the cohort children had stayed in the same residential home their entire pre-school years.\nSo that's quite different I think to a couple of generations ago. That's a really high rate of mobility and some families, some children, are experiencing very high mobility. So we have a small group who experienced ten or more moves in that five year period.\nNow, one of the things that is particularly associated with that was tenure, which is probably no great surprise when people think about housing markets in New Zealand at the moment. And the most likely group to move were those who were in private rentals. So we had quite a stable group actually only 6% or 7% of the cohort though in public rentals and we had around 50% who were in home ownership or working towards that. So the other 40, just over 40%, were in private rentals. And what you can see from this slide is that unfortunately that movement wasn't associated with greater stability or security over that five years. People tended to move between the same types of tenure properties. So our private rental families are moving between private rentals rather than moving into homeownership in general. There's a little bit of a mix. And one of the things that we were concerned about with that, which you can see in terms of some of the policy briefs we've done, is that when we looked at the safety features in those by tenure type then private rentals tended to have the least safety features: least working smoke alarms, less fenced driveways, less safe areas for children to play and so on, which has fed into some of the work that's now going on in the warrant of fitness, but more to do in that space. And actually, from what we can see so far, it looks like many of these children - almost half - will be experiencing that rental process throughout their life. There isn't an opportunity for them to move in to a place where their family can own a home.\nCouple of other things to focus on and then we'll get to the vulnerability bit. Screen time. Huge issue in terms of the fact that we know the rhetoric has been that all screen time is bad or more screen time is bad, at least, and the more screen time the more likely children are to be antisocial and have behavioural issues and end up in the criminal justice system and absolutely those associations are real, you know, those associations between what's going on. But this group of children are digital natives, so they will be using screens their whole life. It is ubiquitous for this population of children from the time they are one year old, they are swiping pages of books rather than tuning them. So we wanted to understand what it means for this group. How do they engage with screens and what can we do to potentially provide messages back to families about what they can do to mitigate that downstream risk or impact.\nSo we did see that by four the average screen time every day interacting with screen time was up to over two hours a day.\nSo that's pretty high really and it gradually increased over time. The more screen time we absolutely saw the higher likelihood of abnormal behaviours and the higher likelihood of overweight and obesity. So that association has already there in that first five years. However what we like to do is to say why are we seeing these things. And when we looked at rules around screen time for these families and whether there were rules that were enforced and kept. So who was watching the screen with them, what time were they watching, what was the content and so on. Actually where there were rules the association disappeared or became much less significant. So that was a good message to be able to give to parents, if you can have boundaries and rules around some of these things that we might think are inherently bad, maybe we can mitigate some of the downstream impacts given that these children will be engaging with screens as they enter school and probably for the rest of their lives. We've also been looking at another big issue which of course is childhood overweight and obesity. And as you saw from an earlier cartoon we've measured that, some of the work using the IDI that I'm involved in the National Science Challenges and looking at the cross-sectional measures will suggest that our four and a half year olds are experiencing slightly less obesity over time. But when we follow the same children in this cohort over time we're seeing their overweight and obesity increase over time.\nSo I think we just have to be careful about where that information is coming from, both of them are correct, but one's a cross-sectional trend and the other one is looking at a particular group of children.\nNow, that's all very well if we measure them as overweight and obesity. But in order to try and do something about that and to say how can we support these families with children who are struggling in this way, we want to understand how the families feel about it. So we asked mums and dads and actually their perception of their children's overweight and obesity is quite different than what's measured. So if they're not recognizing that their children have an issue they are unlikely to want to take any advice on board to do anything about it. So the perception is different than the reality. Only one in three of the families whose child was measured as overweight or obesity perceive that to be a problem. And in fact as far as the families were concerned it was much more important that their children were happy and healthy, what they called happy and healthy, rather than their size per se. Important when we think about what we do about these things and how we support families.\nAll right, I want to move on to this idea of what are the advantages of following children and families over time, and this idea of things churning and changing over time and what we can learn from that. So here's just a couple of examples of things that we might consider and they are really risk factors for vulnerability or for adverse environments. So living in the highest deprivation quintile at antenatal or nine months or having a mum who's experiencing depressive symptoms similarly over that perinatal period. And you can see if we just took cross-sectional measures of that the numbers look the same. But the advantage of following the children and the families through is that we can see that there's churn. Some of the mums are moving out of those depressive symptoms and 50% are moving in. Similarly, they're not all in the same depravation area. Some are moving in, some are moving out. And one of the things that we can do with this sort of data is to try and see what is actually impacting or what's influencing those moves, because if we want to move people out of that situation it's good to know what's actually enabled them to get there. And also we want to avoid the risk factors that have maybe made them move in to a situation that is less than ideal. And similarly we can look at outcomes, and this is an outcome I haven't chosen at random. It's really about self-regulation and self-control. Huge issue at the moment in terms of policy in terms of how do we do anything about this. A lot of evidence now out of Dunedin as well as other studies that demonstrate that three is critical for what goes on later. I'm going to tell you there's nothing magical about three actually, it's just when it was measured. We've measured it at two and four and a half and equally we see issues. But what I want to show you here is that it's not static. So basically 50% of the children that you might pick up with issues at two have resolved by four and a half and by four and a half 50% are new. So we have to be really careful about that when we're thinking about programmes to actually support better self-regulation.\nWe don't what a label, we want to support. And universal strategies might not be the only answer, because they might actually make things worse, which I'm going to come to shortly. And that's just my opinion maybe, but we'll come back to it. You can challenge me on it later.\nObviously really important to look at things like child poverty. So this is in the last couple of minutes I will race through this. We wanted to look at poverty and we have done this for a few years, we've also called it vulnerability before child poverty and persistent child poverty was the way that we are thinking about this now in the policy space. And we, like many of you, I imagine, if not all of you, will know that poverty is more than an income measure. It's about a whole cluster of things that go on for families that restrict their opportunities, that constrain their choices that make life difficult for families and therefore for their children. So we wanted to look at how we could actually characterise families from very early on to see how we could identify which children were likely to be experiencing the most vulnerability and what we then might be able to do to support them very early on, so we could actually avoid some of the problems we know exist for children who are experiencing high rates of persistent poverty or vulnerability or exposure to any one of these risk factors. And we looked at this in clusters. So we took 12 risk factors which I've just flicked over, but those 12 risk factors are pretty much risk factors any lead maternity carer, any GP, any worker engaging with a family in pregnancy could easily get a hold of. And we ranked any four or more of those at one point in time as being exposed to a high vulnerability situation or high poverty if you want to take a broader view of poverty. And then we looked at that in pregnancy, nine months and two years and we looked at that cumulative exposure over the first thousand days. And what we've got here is just a graphic that illustrates that of course that cumulative exposure is not equally distributed in our population and we might expect that given what we know about the inequalities that we see and the poor statistics that we see particularly for our Maori Pacific tamariki and how unacceptable those are.\nSo the first thing we can see here is that our Maori and Pacific mums in this case are experiencing much greater rates of exposure. So no great surprise in that but the power of the numbers just shows how prevalent and persistent that is. And I guess the next couple of slides table why does it matter. Well it does matter and then the next bit is going to be what might we do about it. So when we look at exposure for children, so this is children's outcomes now at four and a half, it's a graphic that tries to describe the sort of environments they were exposed to at those three time points: antenatal, nine months and two years. High is over four of any of those twelve risk factors at any of those times. Medium represents one to three and low is none of them at any time. So basically you've got here a really, well I hope, quite a clear graphic that is showing the graded affect that exists according to the exposure to persistent poverty. So we're seeing here that those children who have experienced the highest rate in all the way through or any high experience of vulnerability are much more likely to have issues with overweight and obesity at four and a half than their peers, particularly those who've experienced no adversity in their first thousand days of life.\nNow when you look at behaviour it's an even clearer gradient. So here's those who are appearing in the top 10% of the abnormal strengths and difficulty score. So this is a clear graded effect that demonstrates that the higher the rate of persistence or exposure over that first thousand days to poverty or to vulnerability means that almost one in two of the children by the time they're four and a half are sitting in that abnormal category. And you compare that to 4% of those in the low group.\nNow this looks really bad, but actually I think there are a couple of things that tell us that there is hope here, and I know that sounds kind of odd when I've just talked about one and two of the children, because that's not a good picture overall, particularly for those at the high end. But what it tells us is that it is a graded affect. If we can relieve some of those risk factors early on we're potentially going to reduce the risk for those children. So the more exposure the worse it is. If we can reduce it early on then maybe we're going to have an impact on those children rather than having them persistently exposed to that vulnerability. The other thing that it tells us is that even for those in the top group, nearly one in two, at sort of showing abnormal behaviour, more than half, 56%, are not. They are doing okay.\nSo what it makes us do is say, \"What's happening for them? What is different? How can we use what's different for them to talk about resilience and inform strategies that aren't just about reducing risk factors but are maybe about thinking how do we support these families differently to actually try and make sure more of the children experiencing that adversity, while we fix the adversity, which is not going to be overnight, can actually be exposed to other supports that might increase their opportunity for resilience?\"\nSo this is what this slide is trying to introduce. I mean I think everybody is aware now that the earlier we intervene the better. And the slides that I've just shown you demonstrate that very clearly this was a theoretical model from Heckman(?). He put it out some years ago, but I think we see that repeatedly in the statistics. We think that if we can intervene in the early years we've got more of a chance of changing the trajectory for these children, reducing their likelihood of poor impacts right throughout their life course. But the question is what do we do which is the 10 million dollar or maybe it's slightly more than that question. And that's really what this cartoon is about. You know if we are going to actually provide evidence and that's what we hope to do from these collection of voices and stories we need to not just show these associations but try and understand why we see them and also what shaping resilience what's happening when we look across all of these things operating together because things don't operate in silos which is why we've used this cluster sort of model. So that's what we've tried to do. I'm just going to finish off this by giving you an example of something we've done in South Auckland. So we have a significant number of our children who are growing up in South Auckland 1252 of them. They are some of our most vulnerable children in New Zealand living in some of the most vulnerable environments. Many more of them are Maori or Pacific than they are in other regions and as opposed to 10% of all the children in the growing up cohort experiencing that high level or persistent poverty in their first two years, twice as many - 20% of the children in that space - are experiencing that high exposure. So we took these results with a group in Auckland with a group who were working with the communities and sat with the communities and shared some of the other things that had come out of the study about the other half of the children who were not experiencing problems and some of the things that came out of that, in terms of what worked, and we worked with the communities and with the groups who were out there including Auckland Council, including the libraries, including story time foundation to actually then put those into practice. So what we've done, and this is something you probably could have got from your grandmother, but the power of numbers sort of supports it, is it the things that made a difference for 56% of the children for example who didn't experience the abnormal behaviour but who had experienced really adverse environments was that they were well-connected. So their families were well supported, connected to their communities, they said they had good rates of engagement between their parents and children, talking time, reading books, telling stories, singing songs, all sorts of things that we all know are probably good. But actually this is telling us from all of this evidence that it really does make a difference. So what happened is a place has been set up, in the Auckland library, South Auckland libraries, that basically provides a home away from home for mums and children who are there, young children. It's a loud space, it's not a quiet library, it's where they can gather and support each other, it's where people can come to them with services or information or to support them. It empowers those mothers to actually understand how they can provide the best opportunities for their children, despite living in some of the harshest environments in New Zealand.\nSo we're just monitoring that to see how it goes, but it's just an example of how we can turn this into something not on our own but co-designed with the communities that it's designed to enhance.\nI'm not going to have much time to talk about this because I realise I'm seriously out of time. So I did just want to mention one other thing though, and this is something that came out from looking at the group who had the highest need according to vulnerability, according to the clustering of risk factors and actually whether they were currently engaging with the services that were there for them. And unfortunately they're not engaging at the rate that we would like them to. And I think that's probably not a great surprise. And when we look, for example, at before school check which we're now linked to, we do see that our most vulnerable families, our Maori, our Pacific, our most deprived, those living in the most deprived areas are less likely to engage with services than those who are more advantaged. And this is an overestimate of the engagement, because this is only the families who've actually consented for us to link. So what we actually see and what we actually do is that if we're relying on those before school checks, which I know many of us are, and we are as well, to actually think how are our pre-schoolers doing we need to be aware that 10% of our preschoolers, according to the growing up cohort, maybe more, are missing out on that before school check. And if we don't think about that group who are the most vulnerable and we create strategies based on the group we know about, that's where I think we are likely to actually make the gap worse rather than resolve it, because we're actually not including the voices of those who are most vulnerable from our end. I mean I know there are lots of work going on to try and do that but it's challenging. So I think it's important that we just remind ourselves about that. That wealth of admin data can be incredibly useful for informing things but we need to think who's not there when we're starting to think about what we do about it.\nOkay. We've got the children transitioning to school, there's not time to talk about that. If you're interested, have a look on the website. The only thing to say is that already 12% of the children have experienced a school change in their first year of school between five and six. 12%. And again it's the sort of groups you're worried about. So this is this transience, early transience is potentially going to be a bigger problem and the mobility is carrying on. We hoped it might slow down, but so far it hasn't.\nSo let me go back to my title. It wasn't me that said that following ordinary children and their families could be transformative. We could follow ordinary lives and get extraordinary pieces of information. It was somebody wonderful called Helen Pearson who wrote a book called The Life Project. She talked about all the UK studies that have followed children and families now for 70 plus years. She also wrote about how mad the PIs were, so if you really want to laugh then read it. She said that people who ran these studies had to be slightly strange, so take that as you will. But I think the things that I've tried to just introduce you to very briefly are just how important it is for studies like this that are getting the stories and the voices directly from children and families, can add value to some of the other information that we can glean from our larger data sets or some of our administrative data or some of the work that is coming out of some of your agencies and actually together those things can be really, really valuable.\nSo we're in the field now hearing from the children themselves. Super exciting, and I hope to report back to you in about a year's time about what they're telling us about who they want to be and what their aspirations are and some of them are quite aspirational. And I just want to finish off by saying a huge thank you to our families and our children because really I'm just the voice piece, it's their collection of stories and the way they so generously share their lives with us that allows us to hopefully make a difference for all children.\nSo that's really what keeps driving us. Thanks for listening.",

Some of these are done in collaboration with your employees, others are solely the responsibility of the organisation.\nHere are two key areas to start with\u2026\n1) Collaborate and keep communication open\nConsider and discuss with your pregnant employee about what needs to change or be accommodated as a result of her pregnancy. Whilst many expectant mothers can carry on and work in the same capacity as they did previously, it is important to acknowledge and accept that some things may need to be adjusted or stopped altogether. This may include making changes to job duties, hours of work, the use of work equipment, travel arrangements or the work environment itself.\nChanges may be necessary particularly if the employee\u2019s work involves any of the following:\nLong travel times\nHabitual overtime hours\nClimbing a lot of stairs\nHot environments\nAny other chemicals\nA pregnant worker\u2019s needs may change throughout her pregnancy so assess their situation regularly. Open communication and collaboration with all your employees (not just your working mum-to-be) will help to keep business running smoothly and hopefully all parties happy with any changes that need to be made.\nIf your organisation is unsure how the job or workplace may impact on the pregnancy, it is advisable to seek qualified advice from a doctor.\n2) Protect employees from pregnancy discrimination\n1 in 5 Australian women feel they experienced discrimination while pregnant according to the 2011 ABS Pregnancy and Employment Transitions Survey.\nPregnant workers have the right to work or continue to work during and following their pregnancy and should be treated the same as other employees except in the circumstance where they have requested a change to working conditions, often in light of health and safety issues. Their work environment should be free from discrimination and harassment and as an employer you are responsible to protect this right.\nThere are a number of pieces of legislation that make any such discrimination unlawful \u2013 The Workplace Relations Act 1996, the Sex Discrimination Act 1984 as well as state-based anti-discrimination, equal opportunity and workplace relations laws.\nYou can find out more about your obligations on the Fair Work Australia website.",

        "title": "Can Australia learn from the United States on Paid Parental Leave? - Parents @ Work",
        "raw_content": "Can Australia learn from the United States on Paid Parental Leave?\nIt\u2019s well-known the United States lags stubbornly behind its fellow OECD nations when it comes to introducing a federally-funded, nation-wide approach to paid parental leave.\nWhat\u2019s less well-known is that there\u2019s a growing number of U.S. states going it alone that do provide paid family leave. Washington state recently passed its parental-leave law which introduces 12 weeks paid parental leave for both parents from 2020.\nWhilst Australia does provide a federally funded paid parental leave scheme, in fact, the provisions offered are the least generous amongst the OECD nations. And there\u2019s no immediate plans in action by the federal government to improve it \u2013 for now.\nNonetheless, Australia and the U.S. can learn from each other to improve parental leave equality for both mums and dads.\nI recently had the pleasure of interviewing Deborah Widiss, Professor of Law at the Indiana University Maurer School of Law in the United States who is currently residing in Melbourne, as part of a grant, to conduct research on Australia\u2019s paid parental leave policy and legal supports for employees with family responsibilities. Widiss is investigating the implementation, barriers and facilitators to family-friendly work arrangements and paid parental leave.\nWidiss will present her insights on \u2018paid parental leave gender norms\u2019 comparing Australia and the United Sates at a public lecture at the Australian National University Gender Institute in Canberra on May 16th, 2018 at 2.30pm.\nBelow is a summary of our interview highlighting the United States\u2019 approach to parental leave, including why an increasing number of dads are accessing parental leave and what Australia can learn.\nHow many state based paid parental leave schemes are there in the US?\nCurrently there are five U.S. states, plus the District of Columbia, that have government-provided paid parental leave, as part of a larger \u201cfamily\u201d leave benefit. This includes California and New York, both of which have quite large populations. In fact, when you add it all up, about 25% of the U.S. population lives in a state with paid leave. There are also campaigns to enact paid family leave laws in several other states, so that number could grow quickly.\nWhat positive parental leave progress is being made for both women and men in the United States (compared to Australia and other OECD nations)?\nWell, that\u2019s one of the things I\u2019m really looking at in my research. As you know, Australia\u2019s plan provides 18 weeks of parental leave to the \u201cprimary carer,\u201d and two separate weeks of \u201cDad and Partner Pay,\u201d or DAPP. Birth mothers are allowed to transfer a portion of the parental leave, but they almost never do. So in practice, the Australian government system functions as 18 weeks of maternity leave and 2 weeks of paternity leave.\nThe model being used in the United States is very different. Rather than a shared period of parental leave, the U.S. laws provide each parent an independent right to pay during time spent at home \u201cbonding\u201d with a new baby. And dads get just as much time as moms for this \u201cbonding,\u201d a period of four to twelve weeks, depending on the state. Then, in many of the states, birth moms have an additional period of benefits during the time that they need to heal from the medical effects of childbirth. So even though the bonding periods are short, it can add up to a reasonable amount of time. If both mom and dad take six weeks, and the mom receives an additional six weeks of medical benefits, it adds up to 18 weeks. In the states that provide 12 weeks to each parent, plus medical benefits, a family could receive a total of more than 30 weeks of benefits. The plans also provide families flexibility, in that the parents can provide whether they want to be at home at the same time or at different times, or a combination of the two.\nThat\u2019s really interesting. But are men actually taking the parental leave?\nYes. As you might expect, women take more and longer leaves, but the rate of men taking parental leave has steadily risen. California was the first state to enact a paid family leave.\nWhen it was put in place, in 2004, just 17% of the total claims were made by men. Now that percentage has more than doubled. And about 40% of the men who take parental leave under California\u2019s law are taking the full six weeks permitted.\nWhy do you think you see men accessing parental leave at such higher rates than we do here in Australia?\nWell, to answer that question fully, you would need to do a lot of careful statistical analysis that\u2019s not really part of my research. But I do have some ideas. One thing is that the rate of pay is higher under the U.S. plans. Most provide 60-90% of a worker\u2019s regular salary (up to a cap), whereas Australia\u2019s government benefits are set at the minimum wage. Additionally, when you go to the websites for the state programs, a lot of them feature pictures of men with their babies. That\u2019s a really simple thing, and it can obviously help both moms and dads realize that men have parental leave rights. Of course, another factor, which is somewhat less positive, might simply be that the leaves for moms are very short in many of these states.\nIs Australia behind the United States and other nations when it comes to having adequate systems and policies in place to support gender equality, in particular for tackling pregnancy, parental leave and carers discrimination?\nIn one sense, Australia is clearly not behind the U.S., in that Australia has a national law guaranteeing paid parental leave and the U.S. does not. Private employers in Australia are also generally more generous in their parental leave policies, and it\u2019s much more common here to have policies concerning workplace flexibility. It\u2019s also important that Australia guarantees sick and carers days, another thing we lack in the U.S. That\u2019s why I\u2019m here to learn more about what\u2019s working well and what the U.S. could do.\n\u201cBut in talking to people here, I\u2019ve come to realize that in the U.S, it\u2019s much easier for employees to enforce antidiscrimination laws in court. That\u2019s crucial, because no matter how good a policy looks on paper, if employees\u2014particularly dads\u2014know they will sidelined at work if they seek to take time off or ask for flexibility, the policy doesn\u2019t actually achieve much.\u201d\nWhat kind of legal challenges are being debated in the United States around pregnancy and caring discrimination \u2013 are primary and secondary carers treated equally?\nSome of them are what you might consider \u201cclassic\u201d pregnancy discrimination cases, like women who are forced out of jobs when they announce that they are pregnant. But there have also been high-profile cases brought by men challenging employer policies that provide longer maternity leaves than paternity leaves. In fact, dads are challenging policies that look gender neutral \u2013 like polices that provide longer leaves to \u201cprimary\u201d caregivers than to \u201csecondary\u201d caregivers \u2013 as a form of sex discrimination. Their argument is that if women are automatically assumed to be primary carers, and dads are not, then obviously the policy makes a sex-based distinction and that\u2019s a form of sex discrimination. There haven\u2019t been a lot of court decisions on that issue yet, but the federal agency that enforces our sex discrimination laws agrees such policies are discriminatory.\nWhat can Australia learn from the United States schemes, specifically when it comes to encouraging men to take parental leaves? What should federal and state governments in Australia consider when it comes to work and family policy \u2013 and what should employers be doing more of?\nWhen it comes to the government program, there are some small changes to DAPP that could help encourage more use. This could include giving men more flexibility as to when they use the leave, or the possibility of breaking the leave period into smaller portions. And of course, providing more than two weeks of benefits, and a higher level of salary replacement would likely help.\nBut the bigger change would be reconceptualizing the \u201cshared\u201d parental leave in ways that would really encourage men to take a significant period of parental leave. For the government program, that might mean extending the parental leave program and incorporating bonuses for parents who share the period more equally, or making a portion of the parental leave benefits an independent right for each parent that cannot be transferred. Private employers should consider abandoning the distinction that most policies make between \u201cprimary\u201d and \u201csecondary\u201d carers. Instead, employers should simply provide all new parents\u2014both moms and dads\u2014a reasonable period of parental leave. That may sound like a big ask, but the U.S. experience makes clear it\u2019s doable. What we see in the U.S. is a strong trend by companies to provide these kinds of equal leaves\u2014and men are increasingly seizing the opportunity to take that some real time at home with their babies. Many men find that time to be very special, and it can help encourage greater involvement by dads in caretaking as the children continue grow.\nThanks so much for inviting me to talk with you. I\u2019ve really enjoyed our conversation.\nA reminder Deborah Widlis will be presenting on \u2018paid parental leave gender norms\u2019 comparing Australia and the United Sates at a public lecture at the Australian National University Gender Institute on May 16th, 2018 at 2.30pm.\nPosted in Case study, In The Media, Parental Leave",

        "raw_content": "Red Rock Canyon \u2013 Dog Friendly Outdoor Adventure Guide\nRed Rock Canyon National Conservation Area is located in the Mojave Desert. Many come here to hike, bike, camp, go rock climbing, or go off-roading within the park. Getting a nice workout in is all the better with a breathtaking view of red sandstone cliffs and serene, quiet beauty of the open air.\nFor those that want to get in the scenery from the car, there\u2019s a 13-mile Scenic Drive with several overlook points and picnic areas.\nNearby is the Las Vegas Strip and surrounding Red Rock Canyon area where you can do some further adventuring and hiking with your dog! We cover trails here within the Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area.\nFall and Spring is a great time to visit Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area. Otherwise, exercise caution when hiking with your dog in the summer or winter. You\u2019ll want to avoid times with extreme heat or cold. The temperature in the desert can change very quickly. Summer temperatures can get well over 100 degrees \u2013 definitely too hot for your dog.\nDaily entry into Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area is by car. Busses and commercial vehicles must charge by car and by person. Annual or senior passes are per person. Most will pay a daily fee of $15 for their car. Other prices and camping fees are available from the Bureau of Land Management website. Prices have been revised as of Feburary 2018.\nWhen you first get to Red Rock Canyon, we suggest you stop by the Red Rock Canyon Visitor Center for paper maps and information on current conditions of roads and trails. Take note of the weather as there are flash floods in the area.\nDogs may not enter buildings but are allowed on leash anywhere in the park. Dogs must be attended by a person at all times. Read further for some important tips on desert safety. Don\u2019t forget to pick up after your dog!\nBring a paper map with you with information on trails and the surrounding area. The Red Rock Canyon Las Vegas website has a great guide for visitors that includes a map and brief information about all 19 trails in the area.\nYou will want to bring a lot of water with, especially when temperatures are warm. The park actually recommends 1 gallon per person for a day long hike, with 1 more gallon waiting back for them in the car. Considering a 6 hour day, that\u2019s about 128 ounces of water or about 21 ounces of water per hour. We usually recommend drinking 16 ounces per hour for a moderate hike. Your dog should drink about 1/2 an once of water per pound per hour. A 50 pound dog would need about 25 ounces of water per hour (perhaps more by park estimates). Actual results will vary, so it\u2019s important to get a rough approximation for what works for you and your dog. It\u2019s always a good idea to drink water before your hike to help stay hydrated.\nDon\u2019t forget to wear protective gear to protect yourself from the sun and to apply sunscreen. A cooling vest or banana will help your dog stay cool.\nToo hot out? Consider driving on the 13 mile Scenic Drive of the area. It\u2019s a one way loop around the area. Bring a picnic lunch and get out of the car to enjoy the scenery. Allow for about 45 minutes to drive, and more time if you want to stop. You\u2019ll most likely travel along the Scenic Drive just to get to a trail. There are plenty of accessible parking lots and bathrooms around.\nThere are 19 different hiking trails within Red Rock Canyon Conservation Area. Don\u2019t forget to print or pick up a map at the visitor center.\nIf you want to find water along the trail, you\u2019ll see the most just after winter. A few trails offer waterfalls and streams but these often dry up towards the summer months. The park does not recommend drinking or wading through natural water sources.\nNo need to go through all 19 trails. We picked the best dog friendly trails for you! Most trails in the area are about 2-5 miles.\nLost Creek \u2013 Children\u2019s Discovery Trail\nIf you have kids with you, this out and back trail is perfect. It\u2019s only 0.75 miles and features cultural sites, pictographs and other fun, shady places to explore. A section of the trail is on boardwalk, but the rest is not suitable for a stroller and is rocky or sandy. You can usually see a waterfall at the end of the trail during December \u2013 April months.\nMoenkopi Trail\nThe Moenkopi Trail is an easy 2 mile trail loop starts just west of the visitor center where you will park your car. You\u2019ll see sweeping views of Calico Hills, Spring Mountains, and La Madre Mountains. La Madre Mountains will be the highest peak you see in the area at 8,150 feet. Be sure to go when it\u2019s not sunny since there is no shade.\nCalico Tanks Trail\nThe Calico Tanks Trail is popular among tourists. It\u2019s a moderate to strenuous 2.5 mile hike that starts at the Sandstone Quarry parking lot and ends with a natural tank and great views. Many make the mistake of passing the parking lot along the Scenic Drive. Watch your footing on this trail as some areas are slippery. Bring water as the trail gets very sunny and hot, but well worth it just to get to see all the beautiful rock formations around the area. You\u2019ll feel like you really saw Red Rock Canyon with this trail. There are several rocks so if your dog isn\u2019t great on rough terrain and scrambling over rocks, you may opt for a different trail.\nThe Ice Box Canyon Trail is a 2.6 mile moderate trail that features several waterfalls and shady areas once you cross a bit of open desert to get there. You\u2019ll see them during the months of December through April. It\u2019s a fun place for your dog to explore and climb some large boulders. The trail isn\u2019t well marked so pay attention to where you are at all times.\nKeystone Thrust is a popular geological spot in the park where the Pacific and North American continental plates collided 65 million years ago. You can access this popular 2.2 mile moderate trail via the White Rock parking lot.\nWhite Rock / La Madre Spring Loop\nNeed a trail that\u2019s a bit less crowded and that just goes in a loop? The White Rock / La Madre Spring Loop is a moderate 6 mile trail accessible from the Upper White Rock parking lot, Los Creek Trail parking lot, and Willow Spring Picnic Area. The White Rock Rail connects to the La Madre Spring Loop. This is a great place if you go trail running during winter months. Prepare to see an abundance of colors and one of the best westside views of the park. You\u2019ll even see bighorn sheep in the area!\nLooking or more water along the trail? Consider Pine Creek, Oak Creek Canyon, First Creek and Willow Springs Trails.\nMost dogs are unfamiliar with desert creatures. They\u2019ve never seen one, nor know quite how to react to something they\u2019ve never seen before. Rattlesnakes and other dangerous animals and insects are in the area. Always have an eye on your dog and never let him per into small dark spaces. You\u2019ll want to do the same, especially to avoid poisonous snakes and insects. If your dog is bitten by a poisonous snake or insect, keep your dog calm and the wound below the heart. Call a nearby vet immediately for more instructions.\nWeather is another concern. Temperatures in the Mojave Desert get really cold in the winter or shade and well over 100 degrees in the summer. Summer hiking should be done in the early mornings. Bring water, a cooling vest or bandana for your dog, and perhaps an emergency shade tent.\nThere is risk of flash floods and summer lightning in the area, so make sure you check for closures or other information prior to heading out. If you are caught in the rain, be alert for flash floods, and move to higher ground if necessary. If there is lightening in the area, seek shelter immediately.\nLast of all, there are hazards from desert flora. Don\u2019t forget to bring tweezers if you need to pull out any cacti from your dog\u2019s paws.\nIf you want to go camping, read our listing for Red Rock Canyon \u2013 Camping at Red Rock Canyon Campground.\nCamping at Red Rock Campground is closed during summer months. Peak months are March and October. Reservations are available at Recreation.gov.\nBackcountry camping is allowed with a permit by calling 702-515-5050. Sites must be set up above 5,000 feet and 200 feet away from water sources. Dogs are allowed but must be leashed.\nIf you are out camping, be sure to watch the sunrise and sunset at Red Rock Overlook and Highpoint Overlook!\nRoad biking is allowed along State Route 159 and Scenic Drive. Mountain biking are only allowed in two areas: Cottonwood/Late Night Trailheads off State Route 160 and Mile Marker 12 on Kyle Canyon Road / State Route 157 (Twilight Zone Trails). Mountain biking is not allowed on hiking trails.\nRelated Pawtivities / Events: Red Rock Canyon Hiking, Red Rock Canyon Camping, Trail Running, Biking\nLocation: Las Vegas, NV | Nevada\nActivities: Hiking, Walking, Camping, Backpacking, Biking, Running, Trail Running\nDoggy Run (5k+ to 10\nParticipate In A Doggy Run (10k) With Yo...Read More",

Startup costs are very minimal. Training consists of a 30 minute Webinar and marketing materials in both English and Spanish are available at no cost.\nFor example, Cashland Financial Services began their new program, paying cash for people\u2019s gold.\nThe program is a first for a company that typically deals with payday loans and check cashing services.\nCashland Supervisor Jill Cvetanovich said their Wapakoneta location was among the first Cashland stores to start the program; just in time for the holiday season.\n\u201cIf a person brings us an old necklace they\u2019ve had and it\u2019s broken and you want extra cash for Christmas, bring it in,\u201d Cvetanovich said.\nCvetanovich said the gold will be tested to determine its karat weight.\nShe said Cashland will purchase the gold based on the daily market value for the karat weight.\nSince the program began last week in select stores, Cvetanovich said the company has already bought $13,000 in gold. The Wapakoneta branch has made several sales, but Cvetanovich said anticipates more as word of the program spreads.\n\u201cThere\u2019s been quite a bit of inquiries made and we\u2019ve had a few pieces sold in the store,\u201d Cvetanovich said. \u201cObviously we\u2019d like to have a lot more business, but we\u2019ve done pretty well so far.\u201d\nCvetanovich said nearly all of the 140 Cashlands across Ohio, Indiana, Michigan and Kentucky are to offer the program by the end of the month.\nInterestingly, the buying and selling of gold, silver and platinum can be added to virtually any business seeking new revenue streams and new services for their clients.\nFor additional information go to Gold into Loot.com\nbuy sell scrap gold payday loans buy gold scrap gold jewelry",

        "title": "Seafarers brought Neolithic culture to Europe, gene study indicates",
        "raw_content": "Seafarers brought Neolithic culture to Europe, gene study indicates\nHow the Neolithic people found their way to Europe has long been a subject of debate. A study published June 6 of genetic markers in modern populations may offer some new clues.\nTheir paper, \"Maritime route of colonization of Europe,\" appears in the online edition of the Proceeding of the National Academy of Sciences.\nBetween 8,800 to 10,000 B.C., in the Levant, the region in the eastern Mediterranean that today encompasses Israel and the West Bank, Jordan, Syria and part of southern Turkey, people learned how to domesticate wild grains. This accomplishment eventually allowed them to abandon their lives as nomadic hunter-gathers and become farmers.\nArcheologists use this transition from hunter-gathering to farming to mark the end of the Paleolithic era, or Old Stone Age, and the beginning of the Neolithic era, or New Stone age.\nArcheological evidence indicates that by 7,000 B.C. Neolithic farmers had moved into Europe. They introduced their ideas and genes to the native Paleolithic people, who had migrated into the continent 30,000 to 40,000 years before.\nThe transportation methods and travel routes the Neolithic used have long been questioned. Did they travel overland, by migrating first north from the Levant into Anatolia, a region that is now central Turkey, across the Bosporus and then on through the Balkans into central Europe?\nOr did they travel by sea? And if so, by what route? Did they travel directly from the coast of Levant to Crete and then across to Greece, as one theory holds? Or did they first travel north into Anatolia and then island hop from Turkey across a large group of islands, called the Dodecanese, to Crete and, from Crete, on to Greece and Europe?\nTo try to find an answer to those questions, an international team of researchers led by George Stamatoyannopoulos, professor of medicine and genome sciences at the University of Washington, looked at genetic markers found in 32 modern populations from the Near East and North Africa, Anatolia, the Aegean Islands and Crete, mainland Greece, and Southern and Northern Europe.\nIn this study, Stamatoyannopoulos and his colleagues compared the proportion, or frequency, of certain markers, called single nucleotide polymorphisms, (SNPs) or \"snips,\" appearing in these different populations. When a migrating people moves into an area and intermixes with the local population, they introduce their genes into the native gene pool and acquire genes from the native peoples. This introduction of genes from one population to another is called \"gene flow.\"\nAs subsequent generations continue the migration and the gene exchange is repeated again and again, the frequency of SNPs in the migrating population will reflect this genetic mixing. It is detectable in the populations they left behind.\nIn their study, the researchers hypothesized that the Neolithic migrants to Europe had primarily travelled by sea. They tested their hypothesis by comparing the frequency of the SNPs in populations that now inhabit the Levant, Turkey, the islands of the Aegean and the Mediterranean and Europe and North Africa. The results of their study are being published online today, June 9, by the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.\nThe analysis confirmed the Neolithic migrants arose from the Levant. They then appear to have migrated first to Anatolia in central Turkey, across the Dodecanese, to Crete and then to Laconia at the southeastern tip of Greece.\nAs the migration continued, some populations moved north into northern Greece. but the bulk of the migration continued west to Sicily and then to the Mediterranean coast of Southern Europe and into Northern Europe.\n\"There were multiple migrations of Neolithic people into Europe and some, no doubt, went by the land route, but the predominant route was through Anatolia and then by sea, with Crete serving as major hub,\" said Stamatoyannopoulos.\nAlthough it was not the main focus of their study, the researchers also looked at the gene flow in populations in the Arabian Peninsula and North Africa. They found that migrations of Neolithic people originating from the Near East also moved southeast into Arabia and through what is now Egypt and across the North African coast.\nThere was no evidence, however, of gene flow across the Mediterranean between Africa and Europe, This observation suggests that, although the sea allowed migrants to move along the coasts, it created a formidable barrier between the two continents.\nThe findings also address older controversies: whether Neolithic culture spread primarily by cultural diffusion, in which ideas move from population to population through cultural contacts, or whether the ideas were are carried by migrating peoples, called demic diffusion, from the Greek demos meaning \"people.\"\n\"While cultural diffusion certainly took place,\" Stamatoyannopoulos said, \"These findings strongly bolster the demic diffusion hypothesis.\"\nhttp://phys.org/news/2014-06-neolithic-people-east-migrated-europe.html",

        "raw_content": "When individuals are asked how old they are and how old they think they are, the gap between the two ages is 12 years, according to demographic expert Dr. David Foot. \u201cHow do you deliver the product to the 50 year old and make them feel 38?\u201d Dr. Foot asked industry types during a presentation to the Nov. 16th PMCQ meeting.\nIn his presentation, Dr. Foot, co-author of the Boom, Bust and Echo: How to Profit from the Coming Demographic Shift and Boom Bust and Echo: Profiting from the Demographic Shift in the 21st Century, focused on the implications of demographics on economics, politics and consumer behaviour.\nDr. Foot showed how the life cycle of the large baby-boomer cohort is creating a market for pharmaceuticals. As everyone knows, the baby boomer generation, those individuals born between 1947 and 1966, is huge. As Dr. Foot writes, \u201cAlmost one-third of Canadians today are boomers.\u201d The leading edge of the baby boomers, now in their 50s, is proving to be a large market for diabetes, arthritis and high blood pressure therapies. As these same people reach their 60s, cancer will be their prevailing disease, followed by stroke and heart disease as they reach their 70s.\nDr. Foot also claimed that the life cycle of this large baby-boomer cohort drove what were thought to be social trends such as \u201ccocooning.\u201d\nHe then analyzed population demographics worldwide to predict everything from which nations would be new economic and technological powers, to where to get cheap labour in the future. He described how the one-child policy in effect in urban China will create a labour shortage in the future. The result will be higher production costs, with China no longer a low-cost producer for the rest of the world. India, with a large population of young people, will continue to offer low-cost labour, however.\nIn conclusion, Dr. Foot discussed how an aging population is now engaging in more sedate activities and how this affects purchases. He drove the point home with his trademark statement, \u201cToday there is more money spent on bird seed in North America than tickets to all professional sports combined.\u201d\nPrincipal of The Medanalyses Group, providing medical writing services to the healthcare communications industry\nTo learn more about this speaker,\ngo to his website: www.footwork.com\nTo view the IDB Population for\ncountries worldwide click here\nTo view the results from our PMCQ Survey\non this speaker click here",

        "raw_content": "Taylor Swift didn't attend the Grammy Awards in Los Angeles on Sunday night, as the pop star instead opted to attend afterparties for the BAFTA awards across the pond in London to support her boyfriend, Joe Alwyn, and his nominated film, The Favourite.\nSwift had been rumored not to be attending the Grammys in favor of the BAFTAs, and the rumors were confirmed when she didn't show up in Los Angeles but was instead spotted, via Twitter, sitting at a table with Alwyn at an event.\nShe also offered fans an update on her Sunday evening activities on Instagram, posting a shot of herself sitting on a bench and wearing a powder blue Stella McCartney gown with her hair pulled up into a romantic bun.\n(Photo: Instagram / @taylorswift)\n\"AHHHHH @thefavouritemovie just won 7 @bafta awards!!!\" she wrote. \"Bout to go give some high fives - thanks @stellamccartney for this dressss.\"\nThe couple was spotted attending the BAFTAs: Vogue x Tiffany Fashion & Film afterparty at Annabel's after the awards, with Alwyn holding his girlfriend's hand as they made their way into the venue. Taylor covered her gown with a coordinating blue wrap coat and accessorized with Delfina Delettrez earrings and a ring.\n(Photo: Getty / Ricky Vigil M)\nSwift was nominated for Best Pop Vocal Album at this year's Grammys for her 2017 effort Reputation, but ultimately lost out to Ariana Grande's Sweetener.\nThe pop star and Alwyn have reportedly been dating since around early 2017, but the two have been extremely private about their relationship and have never walked a red carpet together. They have attended various events together, and Swift recently made an appearance at the Golden Globes to support Alwyn and The Favourite. She also presented an award at the ceremony and attended multiple afterparties.\nThe Favourite also earned multiple Oscar nominations, so it's possible Swift will make another cameo at that awards ceremony later this month.\nSwift is currently in London filming the big screen adaptation of Cats the musical, in which she will appear as Bombalurina. The film is based on the musical by Andrew Lloyd Webber, who hinted at Swift's role to Vulture last fall, saying that the star would be playing either Bombalurina, known for her flirtatiousness, or Demeter, who is a bit more shy.\n\u201cShe\u2019s going to play one or other of the \u2018Macavity\u2019 girls,\u201d Lloyd Webber said, though he noted at the time that he's \u201cnot sure yet\u201d which one.\n\u201cWell, basically, Tom Hooper thought it was a really good idea, and of course, she loves cats,\u201d he added. \u201cWe\u2019ll see. I mean, I haven\u2019t met her, so I\u2019m looking forward to meeting her and seeing her [at work].\u201d\nPhoto Credit: Getty / Rich Fury",

        "raw_content": "Last Thursday, I delivered my State of the University address. Thank you to all who joined me for this UT tradition.\nThe address looked back on a few of your many accomplishments and celebrated the progress we\u2019ve made. But for me, the most important purpose was to talk about the priorities for our university \u2014 not just where we\u2019ve been, but where we\u2019re going.\nI highlighted three goals for UT:\nImproving access, student success and upward mobility for talented students. If we do this, we will create a strong future for our state and nation.\nIncreasing our commitment to faculty members and graduate students, who lead world-changing research, teaching and scholarship.\nServing the state to create a more vibrant Texas. We do this across all disciplines, fields and areas of expertise for the benefit of society.\nTo help achieve the first goal, I announced that the Texas Advance Commitment \u2014 which provides four years of guaranteed aid to qualified, first-time students from Texas with family incomes of up to $100,000 \u2014 has been expanded to include current sophomores, juniors and seniors to support their timely graduation. Nearly 1,900 first-year students and more than 2,700 sophomores, juniors and seniors are receiving Texas Advance Commitment aid.\nI discussed the importance of qualified students having access to UT as well as the support they need to succeed once they are on campus. We\u2019ve made great strides in increasing graduation success for students of all backgrounds and family income levels. I also announced that as part of the College to Career initiative, we will start building a new, university-wide career center for students in 2019.\nAdditionally, I emphasized the importance of our remarkable staff members and the work that\u2019s been done to improve safety on campus. I asked staff and faculty members to prepare for the transition to the Workday human resources and payroll system in less than two months.\nFinally, I mentioned that I was looking forward to the big game against USC. And Saturday night, Longhorn football brought home an outstanding win in front of a record-setting crowd at DKR-Texas Memorial Stadium. Hook \u2019em!\nI\u2019m proud of where we are today as a university. We have more to achieve. More to accomplish. More to discover. It\u2019s going to be an exciting journey.",

Instead, the cable car looks more like an armoured vehicle for transporting soldiers to battle.\nOf course, Twitter users produced the most creative versions of the funicular, including Darth Vader\u2019s helmet, the Popemobile, a coal car, and \u201cbullet-proof\u201d prisoner transport.\nThe funicular will commence full service in March, taking passengers on a one-minute trip to the top of the local tourist destination, Kakolanmaki Hill.

Moleskine: Moleskine, a brand synonymous with writing related materials, has embraced the power of social media through the adoption of a visual content strategy that is centered on user-generated content (Walter, 2012).\nThe 'What's in your bag?' campaign encouraged customers to upload photographs of the contents of their handbags (featuring Moleskine products), engaging consumers with the brand on a creative and unique level (Walter, 2012) The level of involvement and interaction between consumers and providers has increased (Prahalad & Ramaswamy, 2000, p. 80).\nNo longer are consumers simply part of the audience, but they now find themselves on stage as influential actors (Prahalad & Ramaswamy, 2000, p. 80).\nThe merging of media and technology has allowed almost anybody to exercise a voice of influence \u2013 citizen journalism \u2013 somewhat shifting the power from organisations to digital communities and networks (Cincotta, 2006, p. 24; Maurya, n.d., pp. 71, 73).

In doing so, a two-way process of engagement can be achieved (Belch et al., 2012, p. 98).\nMarketing professionals are encouraged to acknowledge all customer touch points with their brands as they allow for the identification of areas within an organisation that need improving, while also allowing the customer to become a co-creator of the brand (Prahalad et al., 2002, p. 100).\nThe rise in Internet use and social networking: As of June 2011:\n60% of Australians engage with the Internet more than once a day (Consumer benefits from participating in the digital economy, n.d., p. 157).\nThe main reason Australians engage with the digital landscape was for research and information based activities (Consumer benefits from participating in the digital economy, n.d., p. 161).\nFacebook was the second most visited website by Australians with more than 7 612 000 people accessing the site from home (Consumer benefits from participating in the digital economy, n.d., p. 160).\nBlogging sites were positioned as the tenth most visited, with more 2 700 000 participants (Consumer benefits from participating in the digital economy, n.d., p. 160).\nEmma Cartmel on ${date}",

        "raw_content": "Home Interchange A Proactive Solution for the End of the Day\nA Proactive Solution for the End of the Day\nAt the end of the day, we need more proactive solutions going forward.\nChew on that puff pastry of a sentence for a second. Now imagine: your life\u2019s savings vanish, a casualty of the financial sector\u2019s wildly unbridled speculation in sub-prime mortgages. Your house is swept away by a flood that could have been prevented if government engineers had done their job. Your daughter at college is gunned down by a lunatic who bought a Glock pistol as easily as one buys a candy bar. Your son in the Army met his end in Iraq five years after his Commander in Chief announced \u201cmission accomplished.\u201d And as you struggle with your losses, a governor or a CEO or a president or a comptroller offers you heartfelt . . . cliches.\nEveryone occasionally uses a popular catchphrase or buzzword, but no one employs them more than public figures in positions of leadership. From Wall Street to the Pentagon, and in every boardroom across America, the sentences of our so-called leaders are as bulked up with empty phrases as our athletes are with steroids.\nNo cliche gets bandied about with as much mind-dulling frequency as \u201cat the end of the day.\u201d In his remedial writing column, \u201cNuts & Bolts,\u201d veteran journalist Bob Baker devotes an article to this pervasive platitude. He cites an informal survey conducted by Chris Pash, an executive at Factiva, the media database company. The survey scanned 1,600 American newspapers, finding \u201cat the end of the day\u201d the most frequently used cliche. How frequent? In the first half of 2006, U.S. publications printed it 10,595 times \u2014 about 60 times a day.\n\u201cYou can hear politicians say it all the time,\u201d Pash rightly notes. \u201cIt gets annoying because you know the kiss-off is coming; it\u2019s code for: \u2018I\u2019m about to say something irrelevant.\u2019\u201d Baker perfectly captures what makes \u201cat the end of the day\u201d so insipid: \u201cIt\u2019s a cliche that poses as wisdom, yet delivers none.\u201d\nAnother catchphrase more often in the mouths of our elected elite than truth is \u201cgoing forward.\u201d When used honestly, \u201cgoing forward\u201d means \u201cbeginning now\u201d or \u201cfrom this time onward.\u201d But the conjunction of the two words produces a fuzzy magic, giving \u201cgoing forward\u201d the sheen of political dialect; like \u201cat the end of the day,\u201d it\u2019s a catchphrase that seems to impart a sense of hope and progress, but yields none. No more poignant example of the cliche\u2019s emptiness can be found in recent years than in the comments of Virginia Governor Tim Kaine after the Virginia Tech massacre in 2007: \u201cThe only magic thing [one can do or say] is just to be with people in the moment as they grieve and hopefully help them find some bit of hope in the situation going forward.\u201d\nIn times of tragedy, there\u2019s no better way to show heartfelt concern than by using cliches. \u201cThe situation going forward,\u201d governor? Seems to me that for 32 Virginia Tech students and teachers, there\u2019ll be no more going forward, backward, or anywhere. Like most politicians, Governor Kaine is wedded to stock phrases. When recently answering questions about his state\u2019s liability in regard to last year\u2019s shootings, Kaine said: \u201cWe\u2019ve been looking at a resolution that will make family members feel we\u2019re doing the right thing going forward.\u201d The day after this interview, the governor discussed a possible settlement for the Virginia Tech victims and their families, saying: \u201cIt\u2019s been very important, the work that we\u2019ve done with the family members\u2026. And we want to continue working with them going forward.\u201d\nLike most popular catchphrases, \u201cgoing forward\u201d serves as prosaic filler, superfluous verbiage. After all, in just about any context, what other direction can we move in? I suppose some things can be done retroactively, but last time I looked, the hands on the clock spin inexorably into the future. Since we haven\u2019t figured out how to travel backward in time yet, by necessity everything we undertake must be done \u201cgoing forward.\u201d\nUnless it\u2019s done \u201cas we move forward.\u201d Say hello to the slick sibling of \u201cgoing forward.\u201d For years now, our government has been accomplishing all kinds of great things \u201cas we move forward.\u201d Doesn\u2019t that phrase just hang a smile on your mug? Here\u2019s President Bush in June 2005 assuring the families and friends of soldiers killed in Iraq that their loved-ones\u2019 deaths were not in vain: \u201cThere may have been past differences over Iraq, but as we move forward there is a need for the world to work together so that Iraq\u2019s democracy will succeed.\u201d\nHow consoling. It\u2019s like the wedding scene in \u201cMonty Python and the Holy Grail\u201d where, after Sir Launcelot has killed the best man in a sudden paroxysm of knight errantry, the host quiets the crowd by saying: \u201cThis is supposed to be a happy occasion \u2013 -let\u2019s not bicker and argue about who killed who!\u201d Even a medieval host knows that things are more cheerful \u201cas we move forward.\u201d\nOf course, the only way we can move forward is by being \u201cproactive.\u201d What an insidious piece of doublespeak! Like most clich\u201as or buzzwords, \u201cproactive\u201d is redundant; \u201cactive\u201d conveys the same meaning but it won\u2019t make you sound as hip as your company\u2019s newly- hired MBA. I had never heard the term until the early 1990s while serving as an infantry lieutenant in the Army. The military is the ultimate arena for jargon, acronyms, vogue verbs, and old saws. When it came to officers, the more stock phrases that spilled out of their mouths, the less leadership you could expect.\nAnd for these officers, everything had to be more proactive: \u201cwe\u2019ve got to be more proactive about sound and light discipline;\u201d \u201cyou need to be more proactive in getting your men to chow on time;\u201d \u201cthe battalion must be more proactive when it comes to utilizing indirect fire assets.\u201d It all translates as \u201cdo your job,\u201d but that doesn\u2019t sound very sexy (nor does \u201cmortars\u201d when you can say \u201cindirect fire assets.\u201d)\nIf I hadn\u2019t heard \u201cproactive\u201d before I joined the Army, it wasn\u2019t my fault. In my 1984 edition Webster\u2019s New World Dictionary, no entry appears for \u201cproactive\u201d (in fact, the only word beginning p-r-o-a is just that, \u201cproa,\u201d a swift Malayan boat with one outrigger). Admittedly, my dictionary is a little old. The Merriam-Webster\u2019s Online Dictionary dates the term \u201cproactive\u201d from 1933. But it seems that the word has risen from technical obscurity to annoying omnipresence. I\u2019ll stick with \u201cactive\u201d and leave \u201cproactive\u201d for the youngsters with acne.\nUltimately, all these empty cliches lead us to \u201csolutions.\u201d For roughly a decade, nearly every product and service gets marketed at some point as a \u201csolution.\u201d There are business solutions, software solutions, information solutions, inventory solutions, ad nauseum. My favorites are foods labeled \u201cbreakfast solutions.\u201d Mmm, doesn\u2019t that sound appetizing: a hot cup of coffee and a breakfast solution. Who am I, George Jetson? In \u201csolution\u201d we encounter again a term that sounds meaningful but adds no meaning, a redundant descriptor. With all these solutions, though, one might get the impression that problems were a vanishing species. To douse that notion, just read a newspaper.\nEvery culture in every era has had its cliches, its tired catchphrases stripped of linguistic life through overuse. Most people fall back on stock phrases out of laziness. Boring as they sound, platitudes accomplish conversational ends, conveying the speaker\u2019s intended meaning, however unimaginatively. In this regard, cliches are like colds: new strains make the rounds, perpetuated by speakers in moments of low mental resistance.\nAnother reason hackneyed phrases get hackneyed is peer pressure. Were you ever called an egghead or a bookworm for using a \u201cbig\u201d word back in grammar school? Loath to demonstrate a large vocabulary, some turn to the security of the commonplace. Cliches have passed a kind of peer review: they\u2019re safe. By using them, you\u2019ve said what anyone else might say, which means you won\u2019t raise the eyebrows that get arched in jealousy when an original, well-turned phrase is uttered.\nLaziness and peer pressure influence everyday speech habits subtly, more by default than any conscious effort. But public figures deliberately use cliches \u2014 in fact they rely on them. So the question is: what can we learn, if anything, from an era\u2019s cliches?\nPerhaps our cliches exude impatience because we are so impatient with everything. Stroll the aisles of any supermarket or drugstore and count the labels boasting \u201chigh-speed,\u201d \u201cnow even faster,\u201d or \u201cquickest ever!\u201d\nDecades of living in an instant gratification culture have made us thralls to speed. And why do one thing fast when you can do two or three? Welcome to multi- tasking utopia.\nIf we followed the news by screening out the facts and only listening to the cliche-riddled comments of our political leaders, corporals of industry, and economic prognosticators, we\u2019d get the sense that we were humming along toward a bright, streamlined world of tomorrow (filled with proactive solutions going forward at the end of the day.)\nThere\u2019s an unintended irony to our current cliches in the form of reality. Our sage economic overseers have blundered again, creating a dilemma that prompts even the well-spoken former Treasury secretary Robert Rubin to fall back on cliche; in recent interviews, Rubin has repeatedly called the sub-prime mortgage fiasco \u201ca perfect storm.\u201d\nSpeaking of perfect storms, when Hurricane Katrina burst the dikes around New Orleans in 2005, the Federal Emergency Management Agency, seemingly re-energized in its mission post-9/11, responded with all the \u201cproactive\u201d alacrity of a Delta terrapin.\nAs of this writing, 4,103 American soldiers have been killed in Iraq while not a single \u201cweapon of mass destruction\u201d (talk about cliches) has materialized. The war\u2019s initiation was certainly \u201cproactive,\u201d however, a clear violation of Article VI, paragraph 2 of the Constitution. And in the background, the oceans \u2014 true solutions all \u2014 quietly rise due to decades of \u201cprudent\u201d industrial management and fossil fuel use. Our leaders on Wall Street and in the White House got it backwards: \u201cat the end of the day,\u201d WMD is fiction, global warming reality.\nHow we speak is a reflection of how we think-the more cliches, the less thinking. The 20th century\u2019s most important philosopher, Ludwig Wittgenstein, wrote, \u201cthe limits of my language mean the limits of my world.\u201d By their nature, stock phrases and jargon limit meaningful communication. And yet even the cliches we use mean something, if only indirectly. It\u2019s surprising, but these phrases that mean so little actually say a lot about our world.\nBorn on Long Island where the rubber meets the road, Walsh hit the ground running. After college, he implemented combat solutions for four years using the Army\u2019s best practices as an officer in the 25th Infantry Division. Realizing war is not a win-win situation, the author downsized the military\u2013by one.\nPost-transition, he re-visited school, earning a Master\u2019s degree in Anglo-Irish literature from Trinity College in Dublin, Ireland. Since then, Walsh has dispensed value-added advice as an oenological consultant at the Corkscrew wine shop; written ad copy at Films for the Humanities & Sciences; and performed executive background checks at a Princeton due diligence firm.\nIn a paradigm shift, Walsh has put his core competency to use as a poet and freelance writer. His poems have appeared in Barrow Street, Chronogram, Cimarron Review, The Christian Science Monitor, and The Hudson Review, as well as in Irish journals, including the first issue of THE SHOp.\nAt the end of the day, he can be found sipping Burgundy and munching on low-hanging fruit.",

        "raw_content": "An item in our September 13 issue, alerting readers to a 12-week Filmmakers Symposium in East Windsor that would feature screenings of movies plus appearances by \u201cdirectors and celebrities,\u201d resulted in the following letters:\nArtistic Rip-Off?\nLooking forward to an enlightening experience at the movies I was instead greeted with a list of rules, the likes of which I would not present to my two-year-old grandson. Although the ideas behind the \u201crules\u201d were certainly good ones, the tone was insulting. At the end of the evening I approached Chuck Rose, the symposium director, to ask him if these rules were done with a sense of humor or if he was serious. He assured me he was serious.\nAfter watching the first film in the series, we were told by Rose that so and so was scheduled to come to speak to us, but could not come and so and so also could not come and therefore he himself would give the discussion. I found his talk brief and unenlightening. I hoped that the following week would be better. The second week was a repeat of the first. Again I was disappointed not to have a major actor, director, etc. to present some insight into the film.\nOn the advertising and application it promises \u201ccompelling interviews, fascinating discussions\u201d and \u201cthere in front of you the creators of the film, ready to answer questions and discuss their work.\u201d There is a long list of famous names of actors and directors.\nMy first two film evenings were absent of any of these. I requested a refund for the balance of the series, and was told \u201cwe do not give refunds.\u201d Although it does state \u201cno refunds\u201d on the ticket, the reasons for my joining this film series were absent at the first two films.\nThe cost of $26 per session is way out of line. These films, although not yet released, were released shortly after our viewing. I could have seen them a few weeks later on my own for about $6. I had no problem with the cost believing I would receive what was promised, but as this was not delivered, I feel taken advantage of.\nRenee Solnik\n14 Cardinalflower Lane,\nThe organization responds: First of all we don\u2019t promise guests every week. In the first six-week session (Solnik attended the first two weeks of the second session), we had eight guests, including directors, actors, and producers. If Chuck Rose has an opportunity to show a better film without a guest than a film that\u2019s not as good with a guest, he\u2019ll show the better film. In these two weeks, he had an opportunity to get a better film.\nWe\u2019ve been doing this for 15 years in Mountainside and this is our first year in East Windsor. Over 600 people sign up between the two locations.

        "title": "Anxiety \u2014 Project UROK",
        "raw_content": "Everyone worries.\nWe all worry at some point, to some degree, about our friends and families, about finding a romantic partner or making it work with the one we have, about getting through school, about finding \u2014 or keeping \u2014 a job. We worry about our health, how we look, about our future, and our safety. And for most of us these worries come and go; it\u2019s the natural, normal response to being a person in the world. We worry, we wonder and then we move on.\nBut for some of us the worries don\u2019t seem to stop. They circle, and grow, and intrude. They\u2019re unwelcome and unwanted but impossible to shake. If this sounds all too familiar, then you may be dealing with an anxiety disorder, and it\u2019s time to get some help.\nHow do I know if it\u2019s just anxiety, or an anxiety disorder?\nThe difference between normal worry and an anxiety disorder is the severity of the anxiety \u2014 how much time you spend being anxious and how much your anxiety impacts your daily life.\nThere\u2019s a big difference between feeling stressed out after a fight with friend, or obsessing over the last thing you said to your Tinder or Bumble date, and the kind of pervasive, intense worry that\u2019s caused by a disorder. Anxiety becomes cause for concern when it interferes with your ability to do the things you need to do, prompts you to avoid a lot of things that most people enjoy, keeps you from activities that used to be fun for you, or seems to come out of nowhere and won\u2019t stop.\nSigns your worries could be more than ordinary anxiety:\nIt\u2019s unrealistic. You worry that every phone call might be someone telling you your parents have died, even though they\u2019re healthy and safe at home.\nIt\u2019s out of proportion. You spilled a drink on the host, or made a stupid offhand comment at a party, and you can\u2019t stop thinking about it. Does everyone hate you? Why did you have to say that? Are your friends still talking about it?\nIt makes you overly self-conscious. You feel like everyone is looking at (and judging) you, so you hate to leave your apartment.\nIt\u2019s unwanted and uncontrollable. You know that flying on airplanes isn\u2019t actually dangerous, but you can\u2019t stop panicking about your upcoming trip and obsessing on worst case scenarios.\nOnce it starts it doesn\u2019t go away. You had a health scare three months ago that you\u2019re still thinking about even though the doctor gave you a clean bill of health.\nIt makes you avoid things you once loved. You wave goodbye to your social life to stay at home alone and, if you do go out, you don\u2019t have fun at events you used to love.\nKinds of anxiety\nNot all anxiety disorders are the same, and different types of anxiety need different kinds of treatment. Understanding what you\u2019re dealing with makes it easier to get the right kind of help, fast. Here are some of the most common:\n\u00b7 Social anxiety disorder: You\u2019re self-conscious to the point of distraction. You feel so terrified of embarrassing yourself that routine interactions with other people become incredibly stressful. Going to parties or on dates is out of the question and even the most basic social situations cause distress. .\n\u00b7 Generalized anxiety disorder: You\u2019re worried about everything, all the time, and with little reason. Will you fail out of school? Could you have cancer? Is your boyfriend sick of you? It seems random and you don\u2019t have evidence to back up the worries, but you can\u2019t talk yourself out of it.\n\u00b7 Obsessive-compulsive disorder: Your mind is filled with intrusive, stressful thoughts and it feels like the only way to alleviate the anxiety is by performing compulsive rituals like counting or washing your hands.\n\u00b7 Specific phobias: Excessive fear of specific things, like dogs or insects or vomiting.\n\u00b7 Panic disorder: This is what people mean when they talk about \u201cpanic attacks\u201d or \u201canxiety attacks.\u201d You experience sudden symptoms like shortness of breath, dizziness, nausea and sweating, which can feel like you\u2019re having a heart attack. Some people feel an intense need to flee. These unpleasant symptoms can lead you to avoid situations similar to the one in which you had the attack (classes or parties, for example) or situations in which you wouldn\u2019t be able to flee (ie, airplanes) for fear of having another attack.\n\u00b7 Illness anxiety disorder: You worry excessively about having or getting a serious illness, despite the fact that you\u2019re either totally healthy, or overreact to very mild physical symptoms. A headache, for example, might make you convinced you\u2019ve developed a brain tumor.\n\u00b7 Somatic symptom disorder: This is similar to illness anxiety disorder, but it usually follows a more specific course: You interpret physical symptoms that are fairly routine \u2014 headaches, stomachaches, nausea or fatigue \u2014 as signs of serious, life-threatening illness, to the point that your worries disrupt your life.\nLong story short, anxiety comes in many (too many) different flavors, but the common theme with these disorders is that they disrupt your life, and make it more difficult, and more limited. You become someone who \u201cdoesn\u2019t\u201d: Doesn\u2019t eat out, doesn\u2019t go to parties, doesn\u2019t go across bridges, doesn\u2019t know how to fix what\u2019s wrong.\nAnxiety sucks, there\u2019s no getting around that, but the good news is that if you are struggling you\u2019re not alone and you have options. Anxiety disorders are among the most common mental health issues. They\u2019re real and serious, and they\u2019re also absolutely treatable.\nThe best treatment for anxiety disorders is a form of therapy called cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT. CBT is also sometimes combined with medication like antidepressants. You might know some people who use medication alone to manage their anxiety. While medication can help reduce anxiety, more than 20 years of research has shown that CBT is the most effective treatment for reducing symptoms of severe anxiety. And unlike medication, which stops being effective when you stop taking it, CBT gives you the tools to continue to manage the anxiety yourself.\nOne of the most important techniques in CBT for anxiety is called exposure therapy. Exposure therapy is very different from traditional talk therapy, in which you and a therapist might explore the roots of the anxiety, in hopes of changing your behavior. The basic idea of exposure therapy is that you are exposed to the things that trigger your anxiety \u2013 in very small steps and in a safe setting with your therapist. As you become accustomed to each of your triggers, the anxiety begins fades and you start feeling like you are the one in control \u2013 not your anxiety.\nIf you are feeling discouraged or overwhelmed, remember that anxiety is a tricky, self-sustaining beast. It\u2019s very good at making things feel insurmountable \u2014 which can make treatment seem impossible. But it doesn\u2019t get the final say. You do. Help is available, and you deserve to feel better. And with a little time, support and the right treatment, you can, and you will.",

        "raw_content": "April 24, 2018 April 25, 2018 Public Watchdogs Press Releases\nSouthern California fights nuclear power with one-million flowers on the 32nd anniversary of Chernobyl meltdown\nPublic Safety Advocates will distribute one- million sunflower seeds to be planted to raise awareness of local radiation dangers at San Onofre nuclear plant on April 26th\nOn Thursday, April 26th, on the 32nd anniversary of the Chernobyl nuclear disaster, the nonprofit Public Watchdogs will publicly announce its drive to distribute one-million sunflower seeds in San Diego and Orange Counties.\n\u201cSunflowers have the ability to remove huge amounts of radiation from the soil and have become a symbol of the dangers of nuclear waste at other defunct nuclear dump sites such as Chernobyl and Fukushima\u201d says Langley.\nThe purpose of Sunflower Day is to raise awareness of the reckless and irresponsible dangers posed by deadly radioactive waste at the hands of Southern California Edison, the owners of 3.6 million pounds of deadly Radioactive waste at the now-shuttered San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station.\nAccording to Charles Langley, the executive director of Public Watchdogs, \u201cSunflowers are a poignant symbol of a looming nuclear disaster at the failed San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station known as SONGS in Northern San Diego County. The group\u2019s goal is to get one million flowers planted in protest of\nEdison\u2019s dangerous nuclear waste plans. \u201d\n\u201cOur goal is to give away, and plant 100,000 packets of sunflower seeds that are guaranteed to grow in Southern California in order to raise awareness of the dangerous nuclear waste situation at San Onofre\u201d says Nina Babiarz, a Public Watchdogs board member.\nOn January 31st, 2018, exactly five years after a radiation leak set off the nuclear warning sirens at San Onofre, Southern California Edison, the owner of the failed \u201cSONGS\u201d nuclear power plant began moving the first of 72 delicate stainless steel canisters filled with hot nuclear waste. Each of the deadly payloads is being loaded into concrete silos 108 feet from the crashing surf and sparkling sugar sand beaches at San Onofre State Beach Park.\nProtesting San Diego\u2019s \u201cMobile Chernobyls\u201d\nPublic safety advocates have called the cans \u201cMobile Chernobyls\u201d because each thin-walled can contains more deadly radiation than what was released during the entire Chernobyl disaster.\nAmerica\u2019s most dangerous nuclear waste dump\nThe storage system at San Onofre is especially dangerous because the utility in charge of the waste, Southern California Edison, has opted to use cheaply manufactured cans that are only guaranteed to last 25 years by the manufacturer.\nWhat\u2019s more, the thin-walled stainless steel cans are subject to stress and corrosion cracking from the salt air and possible saltwater inundation from the Pacific Ocean.\nThe entire system is only guaranteed for ten years\nThe deadly hot radioactive plutonium inside each can is lethal to all human life for at least 250,000 years, and the uranium waste is deadly for millions of years. Yet despite this danger the cans that hold the lethal cargo are only guaranteed to last 25 years, and the silos that hold the waste are guaranteed to last no more than ten years (get a copy of the warranty here).\nWaste containers as thin and as fragile as a dime\nThe walls on each of the delicate and massive stainless steel containers are only 5/8\u2033 thick \u2014 thinner than the diameter of a dime. What\u2019s more, each of the fragile steel containers are situated on top of an earthquake fault line, in a tsunami zone, just inches above the salt water table, and only 108 feet from the public beach at San Onofre State Beach Park.\nFinally, Edison has no monitoring system in place to warn the public if there is a leak due to yet another design flaw or human error during or after their burial.\nWorst location in the USA\nAccording to Robert Pope, Public Watchdogs\u2019 Geologist, the current location couldn\u2019t be worse. \u201cThe location of the San Onofre Nuclear Waste Dump is the worst possible location the USA,\u201d says Pope, \u201cEspecially since the stainless steel cans are being placed in close proximity to an earthquake fault and directly in the path of a tsunami inundation zone.\u201d\nSunflowers: An ominous reminder of an \u201cinevitable accident\u201d\n\u201cWe believe another nuclear accident at San Onofre is inevitable,\u201d says Public Watchdogs\u2019 board member, Nina Babiarz. \u201cOnce the disaster happens, it is likely that much of Southern California will be rendered uninhabitable for tens of thousands of years. It is our hope that by planting millions of sunflowers, we can give residents and property owners a beautiful yet ominous reminder of the dangers of nuclear waste at San Onofre.\nTwo ways to get your FREE sunflowers!\n(they\u2019re guaranteed to grow!)\n1: Visit our Web site at www.publicwatchdogS.org\nSunflowers will be automatically shipped to anyone who signs the Public Watchdogs online petition (this is the easiest way to get your flowers).\n2: Visit a \u201cFlower Power\u201d Location near you!\nPublic Watchdogs is also distributing free packets of sunflowers at these \u201cFlower Power\u201d Locations on April 26th, when you sign the petition:\nPublic Watchdogs, Kearny Mesa\nLiving Tea, North Park,\n4566 30th St., San Diego CA, 92116\nLiving Tea, Oceanside,\nWHO TO CONTACT FOR INTERVIEWS:\nSAN DIEGO / Kearny Mesa\nPublic Watchdogs\u2019 Board Members Nina Babiarz and\nCharles Langley, (619) 667-6636 and (858) 752-4600\nPublic Watchdogs\u2019 Geologist, Robert Pope, (714) 276-4191\nMore on San Onofre\nIt is the USA\u2019s Largest beachfront Nuclear Waste Dump\nOnce it is completed, the San Onofre Nuclear Waste Dump will be the largest privately owned and operated high-level Nuclear Waste Facility in the USA with more than 3.6 million pounds of nuclear waste.\nHot enough to vaporize a steak\nOnce the cans of nuclear waste are removed from the Spent fuel pools, which are constantly chilled by diesel generators, the outer surface of the thin-walled storage cans can easily reach 750 degrees Fahrenheit. That\u2019s hot enough to vaporize all the hair off your body, not to mention a 1\u2033 steak.\nThe current status of the deadly waste:\nEdison began moving the first of its 72 deadly containers into their beachfront silos during the early morning Blood Moon Eclipse of January 31, 2018. Coincidentally, this date was the five-year anniversary of the radiation leak that shut the nuclear reactors at San Onofre down forever.\nThe fight to stop them\nPublic Watchdogs is the only organization that is actively suing the government in Federal Court to stop the deployment of what it calls an \u201cinsane plan\u201d to install backyard bombs on a public beach by Southern California Edison.\nPublic Watchdogs is also the only organization that is intervening at the California Public Utilities Commission to STOP the unlawful publicly funded multi-billion dollar bailout of Southern California Edison\u2019s nuclear plant.\nFor background or more information contact Charles Langley, executive director, Public Watchdogs, at langley@publicwatchdogs.org or by phone at (858) 752-4600.",

        "raw_content": "The First Safari tells how, for a quarter of a century, Ian Glenn searched for Francois Levaillant\u2019s notebooks and the fate of his collection and tried to solve puzzles and mysteries of Levaillant\u2019s life and times.\nLevaillant was the first and greatest South African birder, noted ornithologist, explorer, naturalist, zoological collector and anthropologist of the Cape. He collected thousands of specimens of birds and subsequently published the six-volume Histoire Naturelle des Oiseaux d\u2019Afrique between 1799 and 1808. His contribution to ornithology in Africa was immeasurable, and some of his specimens still exist in museums in Europe.\nThrough his travels, he also shaped a range of media genres: the hunting narrative; the safari; the anthropological field record; the illustrated and mapped first-person account of travel we associate with National Geographic stories; the colonial adventure story with a well-armed hero; the erotic exotic; the investigative report on colonial brutality.\nThis book is intended for would-be researchers, for people wondering why writers as various as Nicolas Chamfort, Karel Schoeman, JM Coetzee and Michel Leiris admired Levaillant, for teachers looking for a new start for South African literature and for people interested in the bush or birding who want to know why Levaillant was our greatest naturalist.\nThe famous King\u2019s Map that Levaillant inspired for King Louis XVI is also included in the book.\nIan Glenn has edited and co-translated an English translation of Levaillant\u2019s Voyage into the Interior of Africa for the Van Riebeeck Society and co-authored the Brenthurst Press edition of Fran\u00e7ois Levaillant and the Birds of Africa. He has written or co-authored many scholarly articles on Levaillant and curated the King\u2019s Map exhibition at the Iziko Museum in 2012\u20132013.\nGlenn studied at the University of KwaZulu-Natal, the University of York and the University of Pennsylvania, from which he graduated. He taught in and was Head of the Department of English at the University of Cape Town (UCT) and then helped found a new Centre for Film and Media Studies of which he was Director and First Professor of Media Studies. He is Emeritus Professor of Media Studies at UCT and a research associate at the University of the Free State. His current research interests include rhino poaching and the history of wildlife.\nTags Ian Glenn Jacana Media Nature New Books New Releases The First Safari",

        "raw_content": "Gilli told me about a time she drove to Nice. She drove around Nice for two hours looking for a parking place where she wouldn\u2019t have to put the car in reverse, didn\u2019t find one and drove back home. Makes perfect sense to me.\nI can\u2019t think of one time I\u2019ve driven in France when I didn\u2019t want to turn around and go back home. Unfortunately, I\u2019m usually unable to because I often find myself on really narrow one-lane roads that require putting the car into reverse, Often a cliff is involved.\nThe ubiquitous manual transmission\nMost of the cars here have manual transmissions. Many car rental places don\u2019t even offer automatic transmissions and if they do, you will pay dearly for one. But as I have learned, if you share my fear of stick shifts, you\u2019ll also pay dearly without one.\nEven though I learned to drive a manual transmission and I understand the concept, when I try to put it into action, my brain gets all flustery. I swear I lose about 70% of my IQ focusing on my hand to brain to foot coordination. If I\u2019m driving the car correctly, chances are, I\u2019m using all available brain cells and I won\u2019t be able to answer a relatively simple question that I can normally answer in a heartbeat ( like \u2018what do they call that thing over there?\u2019 Answer: a stop sign)\nthis is what the French consider an intermediate sized car\nApparently many French people have the same sense of panic when forced to drive an automatic transmission. I\u2019m told they are at a total loss as to what to do with their hands and spare foot. Stupid French people!\nTransportation, not lodging\nUnlike cars in the US, French cars are not designed to provide all the comforts of home. Cars are smaller in France. And for good reason\u2026.so are the roads. Some of the cars are so small, you couldn\u2019t live in them unless you were permanently wedged into the fetal position (or amputated your legs, which would make shifting gears even more difficult).\nGet off my ass, Frenchie!!!!\nIn France, if you are not driving above the speed limit, chances are you\u2019ll be enjoying a steady view of french drivers in close detail in your rear view mirror. Even if you\u2019re on a roadway with lanes and they can easily pass you, they\u2019ll be there. I\u2019m told it\u2019s not an act of aggression. They\u2019re not in a hurry or trying to push you off the road. It\u2019s just the way they drive. Good to know, but I wish they\u2019d stop.\nRoad laissez faire\nSo far, the only road rage I\u2019ve encountered in France has been my own. The French are actually fairly mellow drivers. I\u2019ve often checked my rear view mirror to see if the drivers behind me are cursing me, flipping me off or calling the police. I rarely see expressions of impatience or rage and in the rare instances it usually turns out the driver is from Belgium.\nI\u2019ve done things that I\u2019d be shot for on a California road and I don\u2019t even get the finger here in France. Maybe a quick honk.. But they seem to take all delays in stride. Which I guess is easier to do when you have four hour lunch breaks.\nThe beauty and splendor of hazard lights\nThe first thing the car rental personal always shows me when I start the car for the first time and it immediately shudders to a stop is where the hazard light is. They\u2019re a godsend. When I stall, I turn the hazard light on so the people waiting behind me will assume the problem is my car instead of me. It takes a little bit of the pressure off.\nThese little arteries are the most mortifying thing about driving in Europe.\nNot only do you have to downshift and yield, you have to read the signs in order to get on the right road, because once you\u2019re on the wrong road, god knows when you\u2019ll be able to get off. You may wind up in Bratislavia before you find a graceful exit.\nThe only way to survive the roundabout is to stay calm and try to ignore the fact that there are other drivers on the road. Go around as many times as you need to even if it takes all day. Relax and remember that the worst thing that can happen (besides a fatal collision with a truck) is you\u2019ll take the wrong road. And you can always pull a u turn and double back from Bratislavia.\nOh how I love the toll roadways of France! There are several lanes, they\u2019re smooth and well kept and you hardly have to shift! Unfortunately, they had to go and ruin it with frequent toll booths that force one to down shift, stop, manuever through little gates, take tickets, pay and do more shifting.\nThe pay booths are particularly difficult because I don\u2019t understand the signs indicating which lanes you want to be in for your payment option. You can pay with coins, you can pay a person and you can use a credit card.\nThere are icons over each toll booth lane indicating whether there\u2019s a human or machine to take your payment. Don\u2019t worry if you wind up in the wrong lane. If you stall in an unmanned tollbooth while searching frantically for the correct change, eventually someone will come out and help you. Don\u2019t expect them to speak English though.\nA note about horrid little medieval villages\nWho doesn\u2019t love a charming medieval village? Well, that\u2019s how I refereded to them before I had to drive through a few. Avoid them at all costs. Sure, St Paul de Vence is lovely, Antibes totally rocks as do Les Arcs, Les Baux and Arles. But don\u2019t go there, unless you park well outside the city limits In a spot with lots of space. Like the Sahara desert\nYou can always see nice pictures of those villages in books or online.\nFiled under: driving, driving in europe, expat in france, france on a budget, tourism, transportation, travel, travel humor | Tagged: automatic transmission, car rental, french drivers, french tolls, manual transmission, medieval villages, roundabout, tailgating, tips for driving in france |\n\u00ab the \u201coh my god\u201d moment change you can believe in \u00bb\npetey, on April 18, 2011 at 1:26 am said:\nat least they drive on the right side of the road\u2026\nCool Car Wallpaper, on July 4, 2014 at 3:51 pm said:\nIs it in france Right Side Driving???\nCERN Accelerated | On the Neutron Trail, on May 2, 2012 at 10:01 pm said:\n[\u2026] they were really cool, but I think Diane\u2019s reaction, from behind the wheel was more like that of Lesley Stern, a traveller, who writes, \u201cthe most mortifying thing about driving in Europe,\u201d is the [\u2026]",

        "title": "Draw Near to God \u2026 for What End? | A Christian Worldview of Fiction",
        "raw_content": "Draw Near to God \u2026 for What End?\nI thought I was done with my posts about emerging thinkers and false teachers, at least for a while, but then a friend of mine passed along an old edition of Christianity Today. In that September 2009 issue was an article entitled \u201cReveling in the Mystery,\u201d by D. H. Williams.\n\u201cMystery\u201d happens to be one of the things the people who engage in the \u201cemerging conversation\u201d believe (though they also refute the idea that they hold to any set of prescribed tenets.) Interestingly, last October I wrote an article entitled \u201cTranscendence vs. Mystery\u201d to examine some of the emerging ideas about the mystery of God. As I look at it now, I realize I missed some of the main points.\nIt\u2019s clear to me after reading the CT article that emergent thinkers would have no trouble embracing the transcendence of God. However, in examining Scripture Professor Williams takes the word \u201cmystery\u201d in a verse like I Timothy 3:16 along with the ideas of \u201cancient writers\u201d like Ambrose of Milan and Gregory of Nyssa, and reaches the conclusion that \u201cGod himself is mystery.\u201d\nIt\u2019s ironic that he uses the scripture he does (especially considering what follows about deceitful spirits):\nBut the Spirit explicitly says that in later times some will fall away from the faith, paying attention to deceitful spirits and doctrines of demons, by means of the hypocrisy of liars seared in their own conscience as with a branding iron \u2026\n\u2013 I Tim. 3:16-4:2 (emphasis mine)\nRather than expounding on the mystery of God, verse 16 seems to be declaring the revelation of God. (This is not uncommon throughout the New Testament. See for example Eph. 3:8-9: \u201cTo me [Paul], the very least of all saints, this grace was given, to preach to the Gentiles the unfathomable riches of Christ, and to bring to light what is the administration of the mystery which for ages has been hidden in God who created all things\u201d [emphasis mine]).\nNevertheless, having reached the conclusion that God is mystery, Professor Williams gives the heart of his premise:\nThe distance between creature and Creator is not something to be overcome or removed as if it were an obstacle to growth in the Christian life.\nI had to do a double-take and read that line over. As I understand Scripture, the \u201cdistance between creature and Creator\u201d is most definitely something to overcome or remove. Except we can\u2019t, try as we will.\nThe point and purpose of the Incarnation was to remove the distance sin had created. (A passage like Psalm 66:18 shows the effect sin has on our relationship with God: \u201cIf I regard wickedness in my heart, The Lord will not hear\u201d).\nOf equal importance, Scripture is filled from beginning to end with references about God\u2019s people drawing near to Him: \u201cDraw near to God and He will draw near to you\u201d (James 4:8a).\nLike so much false teaching, this concept of the mystery of God is not undiluted error. There is a measure of truth.\nWhile God isn\u2019t unknown because Jesus showed us the Father, we have the mind of Christ, and the Holy Spirit lives within each believer, we still look through a darkened glass.\nIn addition, God is greater than we can grasp. His ways are not our ways, His thoughts, not our thoughts. He is higher than we, without need of our counsel or, for that matter, anything we can give to Him. In other words, He is transcendent.\nRather than making God more inaccessible, however, His transcendence coupled with His incarnation and work of redemption, demonstrate His great love and grace: \u201cAlthough [Christ Jesus] existed in the form of God, [He] did not regard equality with God a thing to be grasped, but emptied Himself, taking the form of a bond-servant, {and} being made in the likeness of men \u2026 He humbled Himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross.\u201d Phil. 2:6-8.\nThe God of the universe, Highest of the high, stooped to save me! While He has no need of it, He most definitely wants relationship with those He created in His likeness.\nWhich leads to the next troubling aspect of Professor Williams\u2019s article. But I\u2019ll have to save that for next time.\nOther passages of Scripture about drawing near to God include the following: Deut. 4:7; II Chron. 15:2; Psalm 34:18, 119:151, 145:18; Lam. 3:57; Zech. 1:3; Mal. 3:7; Heb. 4:16, 7:19, 7:25, 10:1, 10:25.\non February 16, 2010 at 10:57 am Comments (2)\nTags: Christianity Today, D.

This will, in turn, further reduce the time and cost of transporting fertilisers and other import goods, as well as exports in the form of agricultural and mineral products. Little wonder that land-locked nations such as Ethiopia, South Sudan, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, Zambia, Malawi, Zimbabwe and Botswana are queuing up to participate in the project of the century in order to profit from this intermodal windfall. The government of Rwanda calculates that rail transport would slash the cost of trucking a 20\u2019 container load from the port of Dar Es Salaam to Kigali from USD 4990 to USD 2504.\nAt the same time, fertiliser producers can join this jolly bandwagon by converting from bulk to far cheaper containerised shipments. They simply by-pass the middlemen and sign a direct deal with the governments of each of these landlocked states, which will receive fertilisers by intermodal transport at far lower rates. Everyone, except the traders in the middle, are winners. And to add the icing to the cake, the fertiliser producers and the large containership operators can use the same inbound boxes to transport agricultural exports as well as manufactured goods.\nThe Ethiopian authorities are currently discussing with major European retailers plans to open large, modern factories producing a wide range of consumer goods to be sold on the global market. African countries on the coast or connected to the ports of the Indian Ocean find themselves on the verge of their own version of a new Industrial Age. For their part, fertiliser producers such as Uralkali and Akron, Phosagro are opening up new markets at the same time as embracing a whole new approach to the transport and distribution of traditional cargoes by means of ISO containers rather than traditional bulk vessels. In embracing this new intermodal approach they have become masters of their own destiny.",

Experts in public health and engineering are studying nutrition and stunting, and health care providers are seeking to improve reproductive health outcomes in Ethiopia.\nU-M African President Scholars Program\nThese are just some of the projects Provost Martin Philbert experienced during a recent trip to Africa, where his itinerary included stops in Ghana, Ethiopia and South Africa.\n\u201cI\u2019m deeply impressed by the work our faculty and students are doing with their partners on the African continent to build human capacity and to develop new ideas that address the most pressing concerns of their host nations,\u201d Philbert said.\n\u201cFrom the advancement of emergency medicine in Ghana, to the creation of new understandings of the arts and humanities in Ethiopia, our U-M colleagues are deeply engaged in important work.\u201d\nProvost Martin Philbert (center) talks with with Birhanu Worku (right), director of the Kidney Transplant Center at St. Paul Hospital Millennium Medical College in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, during a recent visit to several African countries. (Photo by Alemtsehay Abate)\nSince President Emerita Mary Sue Coleman\u2019s trip to Africa a decade ago, U-M has invested effort and resources into building research collaborations in Africa.\nToday more than 135 emerging African scholars from 10 countries have completed four- to six-month research residencies in Ann Arbor and worked closely with U-M faculty. Other initiatives and seed grants have fostered collaborative research in Cameroon, Ghana, Mali, South Africa, Ethiopia, Sudan and Uganda.\n\u201cIt, therefore, has been extremely important for Provost Philbert to experience first-hand the outcomes of this work, and engage in conversations with our partners in Africa \u2014specifically in Ghana, Ethiopia and South Africa \u2014 about how we might build upon this work that will advance the collaborative research opportunities for scholars and scientists both at U-M and in Africa,\u201d said Raymond Silverman, professor of the history of art , and of Afroamerican and African Studies in LSA.\nSilverman has been working in Krofrom, Ghana, with a community of 100 artisans casting brass objects in collaboration with colleagues from the University of Ghana since 2006. Their work will be exhibited in the Ghana National Museum.\nAfrica is the world\u2019s second most-populous continent, home to a billion people, and some of the fastest growing economies in the world. Its young population and expanding economies create vast challenges in infrastructure, education and health care. Thus, there is a rising demand for engineers, educators, doctors and researchers.\n\u201cThis trip reiterates the University of Michigan\u2019s commitment to Africa and will encourage a two-way flow of students, researchers and professors between Ann Arbor and the continent,\u201d said alumnus Michael Sudarkasa, CEO of Africa Business Group in Johannesburg, South Africa. \u201cIt also helps identify additional academic opportunities and partnerships.\u201d\nWhile much of U-M\u2019s engagement occurs at an individual level, institutional support is important for sustained long-term growth, said Andries Coetzee, director of U-M\u2019s African Studies Center. \u201cWe are in it for the long haul, with a goal of equitable exchange and co-creation of knowledge, aimed at solving the problems that face the modern world.\u201d\nThis deep connection was evident in a gathering of alumni of the U-M African President Scholars Program, which took place at Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology in Ghana, said James Holloway, vice provost for engagement and interdisciplinary academic affairs.\nEach UMAPS scholar recounted how their time at U-M contributed to their work and research.\n\u201cAs much as any alum who graduated with a degree from the U-M, these scholars who have lived with us and worked with us will forever say \u2018Go Blue,\u2019\u201d Holloway said.\nTags: Africa, African Studies Center, U-M African President Scholars Program, Martin Philbert",

        "raw_content": "Posted 2 months ago by pinkybrand\tBusiness Intelligence\nThere is a Norwegian saying \u201cdu f\u00e5r svar som du sp\u00f8r\u201d which roughly means that the question you ask will impact the answer you are given. The point is that you have to carefully consider how a question is phrased and what you are really asking for, as this will have a large impact on the answer. This principle is especially true when it comes to calculating renewal rates for domain names in a certain namespace.\nIt is important for all Registries to know the renewal rates for the domain names registered under their top-level domain(s) in order to properly evaluate how successful a marketing campaign is in the long term and to better be able to forecast future revenues. The renewal rates also provide insights on how domain names in a certain zone are being used, which in turn impacts other strategic decisions for the Registry managing the top-level domain.\nAlthough most people agree that understanding renewal rates is important, exactly how these rates are calculated vary greatly between different Registries. The differences in methods for calculating renewal rates are problematic because it makes comparisons between top-level domains difficult as well as gives very limited insight into the actual trends and well-being of a zone. A simplified statement would be that renewal rates are merely \u201cthe percentage of the registered domains within a period of time that gets renewed\u201d, which is true, but that statement fails to take many important variables into consideration. To illustrate this, let\u2019s have a closer look at some of the many nuances that exists when calculating renewal rates:\nFirst, how a renewal is defined by the organisation making the calculations can impact the outcome. For instance, the expiry date is extended by one year when a domain name is transferred \u2013 should that count as a renewal? If a domain is registered for 3 years right at the point of initial registration, should that domain still be considered to be renewed each year during those three years, or only renewed after the third year when the registration would otherwise expire?\nSecondly, how an average renewal rate for a time period is calculated can vary substantially and thereby provide more or less valuable information.\nExample: Registry X wants to calculate its annual average renewal rate. Let\u2019s have a look at the results if they simply take each month\u2019s renewal rate, sum it up to a total and then divide it by 12 months to get the monthly average for that year.\nJanuary \u2013 June, 10 000 registrations, monthly renewal rate of 60%\nJuly \u2013 December, 1000 registrations, monthly renewal rate of 90%\n(60 * 6 months) + (90 * 6 months) = 360 + 540 = 900\n900 / 12 months = 75\nDoing the calculation this way gives us an answer of a 75% average renewal rate for that year.\nSo what\u2019s the problem with this? Although the 75% average makes sense mathematically, it fails to take the volume aspect into account. In the example above, the last six months (July-Dec) accounts for only 10% of the Registry\u2019s yearly total volume, but it lifts the average of the other 90% of the registrations notably (from 60% renewal rate to 75%). In other words, the recipient of the information that Registry X has an average renewal rate of 75% is missing a large portion of important information unless he/she has additional knowledge about the numbers used in the calculation.\nOne way of avoiding this and to get a more informative and useful result from the renewal calculations is to use a weighted average for the time period. A weighted average will, unlike in the example above, account for volume. In other words, the volume that each percentage represents will be taken into consideration when generating the answer.\nBusy with other things? Calculating renewal rates accurately is a complex and time consuming task to perform manually, which is why RegistryOffice now has a feature that removes that burden by automating the process of calculating renewal rates and ensures that the calculations are consistently applied.\nRegistryOffice calculates renewal rates for the Registry as a whole, as well as on a per registrar basis, both in and outside of campaign periods. The calculated weighted average renewal rate is also used to provide valuable key performance indicators and trend analysis.\nThe renewal volume and rates are displayed graphically per year for easy interpretation, as shown in the image above.\nIf you would like a demonstration of how RegistryOffice calculates renewal rates, please reach out to contact@registryoffice.global.\nBusiness Intelligence, Expiry Mgmt, Renewal Mgmt\ndomain name renewal rates, domain names, domain renewal calculations, registryoffice\nPrevious Previous post: Abuse Monitor \u2013 New 6 min.

The introduction by Transparency International (TI) during the 1990s of the National Integrity System\u2019s (NIS) Greek temple, comprising a number of main pillars for an integrity system as a holistic approach against corruption, sparked global efforts to introduce or strengthen these elements within different jurisdictions. One of the main pillars of the TI Greek temple is the \u2018Watchdog Agency\u2019. The idea behind establishing an independent Anti-Corruption Agency (ACA) is that conventional law enforcement procedures and agencies are not capable of dealing with corruption or the promotion of integrity. Corruption has become more sophisticated to the point where conventional law enforcement organisations and legislation cannot keep up and the police are increasingly unable to detect or prosecute complicated corruption matters. This is more apparent in places with \u2018endemic\u2019 corruption, where law enforcement organisations are themselves corrupted and ethically defective. Australia is not distanced from these developments; in fact, it has had its own share of government and public sector misconduct. Throughout the 1970s and 1980s and until recently, numerous cases of corruption have surfaced and been investigated, specifically those of police corruption. The standard Australian response was to establish inquisitorial royal commissions to investigate these incidents. The success of these special commissions was not always guaranteed, although they tended to give the impression of governments being serious in investigating such wrongdoings. However, in many cases these commissions found themselves under-resourced or, in some cases, stripped of adequate powers to conduct their investigations or to appropriately execute the investigations. The governments of the day either hesitated to implement or ignored their findings. There were some exceptions where the findings of these inquiries came to be the driving force for reforms in their jurisdictions. While Australia has had its share of corruption, it has also come to be renowned for its strong commitment to developing and maintaining robust public sector integrity systems. In most recent global corruption reports it has been ranked in the top ten countries for having superior integrity systems. One part of this strong integrity system is the creation of specialised corruption and misconduct commissions, in most cases well-funded and resourced and given adequate extraordinary coercive powers that are usually not provided to conventional law enforcement agencies. The commissions are designed to deal comprehensively with corruption through a number of both reactive and proactive strategies. My study looks at three of these special anti-corruption commissions, the Queensland Crime and Misconduct Commission (CMC), the New South Wales Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) and the Western Australian Corruption and Crime Commission (CCC). The purpose of my examination was to explore what kind of strategies they use in combating corruption, to examine the generally shared themes and characteristics that have shaped the way they function and to recognise any shortfalls within the applied strategies. I came to identify that, (i) all three anti-corruption commissions use similar reactive and proactive strategies, (ii) they all share a number of general characteristics of being part of broader State integrity systems, (iii) all three are organised and function holistically in dealing with misconduct, (iv) they all experience difficulties when investigating their political masters, (v) they all lack a formal mechanism for coordinating with other agencies involved in dealing with misconduct in their jurisdictions, (vi) they all suffer from a low prosecution rate of their cases and, (vii) they are all in the process of devolution and in giving public sector organisations greater responsibility for dealing with their own misconduct, although whether public sector agencies are yet ready to take up such a challenge remains uncertain.\nPublic Sector integrity\nTransparency Iternational\nNational Integrity System's",

        "raw_content": "/About/Board of Directors\nRhPAP Board of Directors\nThe current RhPAP board of directors is a hybrid of an advisory and policy model managed by up to ten directors: three appointed by the Alberta Medical Association, two appointed by the Health Boards of Alberta, and one appointed by the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Alberta.\nThe board is \u201cresponsible for making policy decisions and ensuring through the Executive Director that appropriate staff, structures and processes are in place to carry out the policy and day-to-day tasks of the [RhPAP].\u201d The board is to govern with \u201can emphasis on outward vision rather than an internal preoccupation, (b) encouragement of diversity in viewpoints.\u201d Its focus should be on \u201cthe intended long-term impacts outside the operating organization, not on the administrative or programmatic means of attaining those effects\u201d (RhPAP Board of Directors Policies).\nRhPAP consists of the following Board of Directors:\nDr. Rob Warren\nBoard Chair / Physician - Sundre, AB.\nA practising physician since 2011, and co-owner (with spouse, Dr. Michelle Warren) of Sundre\u2019s Moose and Squirrel Medical Clinic, Dr. Rob Warren says RhPAP remains \u201ca valuable ally\u201d, providing recruitment support, and educational initiatives for practising and future physicians. \u201cBeing a rural doc is not easy, and very different from urban family medicine, and I would not have been ready to practice in this sort of environment without [RhPAP\u2019s] programming and support.\u201d\nMs. Linda Humphreys, CPA\nBoard Vice-Chair - Calgary, AB.\nLinda is a retired Chartered Professional Accountant (CMA) who spent over two decades in senior management and executive roles in the health research sector in Alberta.

Dr. John Gillett embraces the challenges of rural practice. \u201cI think the nice thing about rural practice, at least here, is that you don\u2019t know what to expect on any given day. Some days are quiet and you just do clinic work. And then tomorrow, all hell breaks loose and multiple trauma comes through the door. And that\u2019s what I think makes it exciting.\u201d\nRural Municipalities of Alberta (RMA)\nMr. Al Kemmere\nRMA President - Mountain View County, AB.\nAl was elected to his fifth term as a councillor for Mountain View County in October 2017.

In our case, the philosopher\u2019s workshop is a virtual space that aims at becoming a meeting place for scholars and interested people where we all can bring together scholarly reflections, insights, research tools and investigations about the philosopher and polymath Roger Bacon (c.1214-1292), Master of Arts and Franciscan Friar, definitely one of the most controversial, innovative, and surprising intellectual figures of the Middle Ages.\nThe virtual workshop has three main missions: to research, inform, and share knowledge on Roger Bacon. As a free instrument of RESEARCH, available to all users, the virtual workshop provides an electronic resource entirely dedicated to scholarly research in the life, thought and writings of Roger Bacon; an integrated global access to texts that are currently out of print and in public domain; a fully searchable database of the manuscript transmission of Bacon\u2019s works, which can support title-based and manuscript-based researches; and a bibliography of Bacon\u2019s life, works, legacy, with direct links to studies and materials in public domain.\nAs a system of INFORMATION, it provides a regularly updated page of news and events concerning Roger Bacon (conferences, seminars, publications, projects, etc); an integrated system of links to social networks where discussions and news can be broadly disseminated; and a subscription to a dedicated newsletter.\nFinally, as SHARING PLACE, the virtual workshop aims at becoming a reference point for facilitating the circulation of news and initiatives on Roger Bacon. All users are indeed strongly invited to send here info on events, publications, research projects, initiatives on Roger Bacon.",

It is a fantastic place to be able to see the night sky and wonder endlessly about the universe. About 4 years ago he made the move to the big smoke of Canberra where he currently resides. Although his window to the universe might now be a little more light polluted, he stills make the pilgrimage back home once a week to reaffirm his connections there.\nEver since David was a small child he\u2019s been surrounded with technology. His father is a radio engineer and still teaches computer networking at the TAFE (think technical college) in Canberra. As such he would always be tinkering with some of the latest and greatest computer bits, with David firmly stuck to his side gazing on in awe. David still remembers getting his first modem and explaining to all the kids at school what the internet was.\nFast forward 15 years and he has become a computer engineer; one of the last of his kind to graduate from the University of Canberra. It was during his time there that he developed a keen interest in finance, world economics, and business processes. Although only a small part of his university career focused on these aspects it piqued his interest nonetheless, leaving him to wander off in the wonderful world of investments.\nIt was only recently that David discovered his deep passion for space exploration and aeronautics. He\u2019s now lost countless hours staring off into the sky, watching videos of spacecraft (new and old) and getting his friends interested in the wonderful place that is our universe.

However, the reasons are the same nationally and locally. Teachers in Indiana have lost collective bargaining rights, lost due process rights, lost classroom autonomy, and gained salary stagnation. The state legislature, the governor, and the State Board of Education all contributed just like similar politicians in North Carolina, Michigan, Ohio, Nevada, Pennsylvania, Florida\u2026\nIn addition, Holcomb\u2019s comment \u201clawmakers have increased K-12 funding\u201d is misleading and disingenuous. A big chunk of that money is going for \u201creform\u201d schemes like the overuse of standardized testing, private school vouchers, and charter schools\u2026all pushed by the Republican governor and the Republican supermajority in the state legislature.\nThe issue of teacher shortages arose, and Holcomb pointed out it\u2019s a national problem, not just one in Indiana.\nHe said lawmakers have increased K-12 funding, but \u201cit\u2019s about where that money ends up.\u201d For instance, he said, too much is going to administrative costs instead of salaries.\nBut Gregg said, \u201cwe created this teacher shortage in the last few years by the way we have demeaned those in the education profession.\u201d He promised to bring teachers back to the table on policy and testing decisions \u2013 one thing he said will help attract and retain teachers.\nDESTROYING THE TEACHING PROFESSION WITH TEACH FOR AMERICA\nDo Americans Hate Teachers, Or are they Duped by Teach for America?\nTeach for America gives its \u201ccorps members\u201d \u2013 students from the nation\u2019s highest ranked colleges and universities \u2013 only five weeks of training to prepare them to teach poor, urban students.\nIs there any other profession which would let recent graduates take on professional responsibilities without serious preparation? I have a masters degree in Elementary Education, a Reading Specialization, and nearly four decades of experience in elementary school classrooms. Would I be prepared to practice corporate law with five weeks of \u201ctraining?\u201d\nYet school systems (and states) around the country regularly allow these untrained novices into classrooms with the neediest students.\n\u201cBut there is no one else who will take this job!\u201d the school systems respond. Aside from the fact that that\u2019s not always true the problem then becomes one of recruitment. Maybe teachers ought to be given salaries commensurate with their training. Maybe they ought to have more autonomy, prep time, and time for collaboration with other teachers. Maybe states should stop bashing teachers and do what\u2019s needed to make the profession more attractive.\nDo Americans understand that by contributing to a turnaround group of young novices to be teachers, they are destroying the American teaching profession? Do they know that sooner or later there will be no more real, qualified teachers to instruct their students?\nAre they not aware that fast-track trained beginners, who focus on data, digital instruction, and classroom control, and who are never intent on becoming teachers until they recruited, are not the best individuals to lead a classroom?\nAre they confused and think they are doing something nice, or are they hell-bent on destroying public education?\nTeaching Struggling Readers: Focus on Meaning\nThanks to Russ Walsh for his thoughtful discussion of how to improve literacy instruction. Educators must take back instruction from statehouses and billionaire board rooms.\nThe key thing to understand in designing a support program for readers is that reading is communication. If we begin our search for the best way to help a struggling reader with the idea that language is meaningful and reading is about making sense of written language, then we have a better chance to help struggling readers.\nWhat does this mean for instruction? One thing it means is we need to provide interventions early, before children experience too much failure and adopt too many \u201cconfusions\u201d about how reading works. Secondly, it means that rather than doubling down on phonics instruction, we need to double down on meaning making. If a student struggles to make meaning from text, we must scaffold the meaning sufficiently to assist the student in decoding the words.\nMost instruction for struggling readers, in other words, has it backward.\nPRIVATIZATION: GULEN CHARTERS\nWho Is Watching? Turkish Cleric, Accused of Motivating Military Coup, Controls Large Network of Charter Schools in the U.S.\nDid you know that the reclusive Turkish primary school graduate preacher, former imam, writer, and political figure who failed in a coup attempt in Turkey is running one of the largest networks of charter schools in the US?\nThe lack of transparency of the Gulen charter network and the failure of federal and state oversight are warning signs of the dangers involved in turning over taxpayer dollars for public education to private charter operators. In the case of the Gulen network, the amount of money involved is enormous\u2014hundreds of millions of dollars. Shouldn\u2019t there be government investigations? A moratorium on adding more schools to these networks? Where is the voice of the charter industry for due diligence in schools where we send our children? Our children deserve better.\nPRIVATIZATION: INCREASES INEQUITY\nReport: How privatization increases inequality and here (full report)\nSection 5: Privatization perpetuates socioeconomic and racial segregation\n\u2026 implications of this increasing segregation can especially be felt in districts with rapid charter growth. In Durham County, North Carolina, the fast growth of charters has increased racial segregation at the financial expense of the public school district. Neighborhood schools have lost middle class children to charter schools and have been left with a higher concentration of poor students and students of color. Charter schools are exempt from providing student transportation or free and reduced price lunch, making it less likely that poor students can attend charter schools that don\u2019t provide these critical services.\nCharter school expansion has been destabilizing for the school district. One recent study estimates that the net cost to the Durham Public Schools could be as high as $2,000 per charter school student. The school district estimated in 2014 that charter schools take $14.9 million each year from neighborhood schools. This means that the traditional public schools in the district, which contain higher proportions of lower-income students, students of color, and more expensive-to-educate children (such as those with disabilities) are financially strained, as the district is unable to reduce its spending proportionally with the loss of charter students due to unavoidable fixed costs.286 Unfortunately, this financial loss hurts the public school district\u2019s ability to provide quality education to its remaining students, who lose out even more as schools become more racially isolated and segregated.\n10 Emotional Abuse Tactics That Trump Blatantly Used in the First Debate\nA lot of people are saying that this guy is abusive. Is he? I don\u2019t know. Maybe he is.\nHis speeches are filled with language such as \u201cit\u2019s a disaster,\u201d \u201cthis is tremendous,\u201d \u201cwe are in a big, fat, ugly bubble,\u201d \u201cit\u2019s unbelievable,\u201d and \u201cit\u2019s the greatest.\u201d He also loves to use language of \u201ceveryone\u201d and \u201calways.\u201d He cushions many of his egregious claims with statements like \u201ceveryone tells me\u201d \u2013 a claim that is very difficult to prove or disprove or fact-check.\n\u2026a rhetorical device wherein the speaker or writer brings up a subject by either denying it, or denying that it should be brought up.\nTrump\u2019s Definition of the \u201cHigh Ground\u201d\nDonald Trump claimed the high ground after the September 26th Presidential Debate.\n\u201cI\u2019m very happy that I was able to hold back on the indiscretions with respect to Bill Clinton, because I have a lot of respect for Chelsea Clinton and I just didn\u2019t want to say what I was going to say.\u201d\nHe Would Never Say It, But This Is Donald Trump\u2019s Favorite Rhetorical Device\n\u201cI was going to say \u2018dummy\u2019 Bush; I won\u2019t say it. I won\u2019t say it,\u201d Trump said in January.\nTrump referenced then-GOP hopeful Carly Fiorina\u2019s rocky tenure as CEO of Hewlett-Packard in a similar way.\n\u201cI promised I would not say that she ran Hewlett-Packard into the ground, that she laid off tens of thousands of people and she got viciously fired,\u201d he said. \u201cI said I will not say it, so I will not say it.\u201d\n\u2026\u201cI refuse to call Megyn Kelly a bimbo, because that would not be politically correct,\u201d he wrote on Twitter. \u201cInstead, I will only call her a lightweight reporter!\u201d\nAnd of the former host of Comedy Central\u2019s \u201cThe Daily Show,\u201d Trump stated that, \u201cunlike others, I never attacked dopey Jon Stewart for his phony last name. Would never do that!\u201d\nFiled under Charters, Election, Equity, Gulen, Indiana, Politics, Privatization, read-alouds, reading, TeacherShortage, TFA\nThe Schools All Children Deserve\nCHICAGO TRIBUNE: \u201cREFORM\u201d ADVOCATE\nThere\u2019s a battle going on in Chicago for the future of the Chicago Public Schools. It mirrors the national education story in at least one way\u2026it\u2019s a battle between vocal parents and teachers against a \u201creform\u201d movement led by the rich and powerful at the expense of public education.\nThe Chicago Tribune, owned by the same company that owns other \u201creformist\u201d-leaning media outlets such as the Los Angeles Times, has been a strident voice against the teachers and for the mayor and his hand picked \u201cschool board\u201d (which includes a member with ties to Teach for America, a charter school co-founder, a CEO of one of Chicago\u2019s largest banks, a supporter of parochial schools, as well as a couple of former CPS principals).\nWednesday, for example, the Tribune came out against the CTU because they didn\u2019t approve of the way in which the union was conducting their open strike vote \u2013 a second strike vote this year because the anti-union forces are working to negate the secret-ballot strike vote taken earlier this year. Of course, the Tribune, which compares what they claim is an undemocratic CTU to Saddam Hussein and Kim Jong Un, operates in a city which refuses to hold elections for school board members \u2013 Irony alert!\nEarlier in the week the Tribune published their \u201cSchoolchildren\u2019s Bill of Rights,\u201d a list that Chicago teacher and blogger Mike Klonsky said,\n\u2026has little to do with schoolchildren or their rights\u2013except, that is, for their right to have their schools closed or privatized and their teachers debased.\nKlonsky\u2019s article described the editorial\u2026\nThe Tribune\u2019s so-called \u2018Schoolchildren\u2019s Bill of Rights\u2019\nThe Trib\u2019s Bill of Rights includes not a single right for students, but instead includes things like:\nMerit Pay for teachers, a oft-tried initiative which, according to researchers, produced no gains in measurable learning outcomes.\nUsing student test scores to evaluate teachers. Already the law in IL.\nWidespread school \u201cchoice,\u201d the Trib\u2019s code word for school vouchers and privately-run charters. Trib editors write: \u201cThe public education industry should view ethnic, parochial or other private schools not as threats but as alternatives that enrich and diversify a community\u2019s educational offerings.\u201d\nAn end to collective bargaining, including the right to strike.\nParent Trigger Laws which enable a small and temporary group of parents to take over a school and hand it over to a private, for-profit company to operate. As you might expect, there\u2019s nothing about parents\u2019 right to opt-out of the plague of standardized testing.\nMass closing of black and Latino neighborhood schools and leaving boarded-up buildings to further blight communities or sell them off to condo developers. Again, too late. They\u2019re already doing it.\nWith high sounding vocabulary in the genre of \u201cthink of the children!\u201d the Tribune succinctly gathers every \u201creform\u201d practice and rolls it into one \u201creformy\u201d editorial. We\u2019re supposed to have \u201chigh quality teachers\u201d which really means teachers who teach to \u201cthe test\u201d because \u201cthe test\u201d is everything. We\u2019re supposed to support \u201cchoice\u201d for parents, which really means \u201cchoice\u201d for private schools to reject your non-standardized child. And, if that\u2019s not good enough, they want \u201cEven more choice than that\u201d which really means, privatize, privatize, privatize.\nEDUCATORS: STUDENT ADVOCATES\nHere\u2019s a \u201cStudent Bill of Rights\u201d which would actually help students and improve education in Chicago\u2026and the rest of the country.\nIt was published during the last CTU strike (2013) and is called The Schools Chicago\u2019s Students Deserve. It includes actual \u201cproven educational reforms,\u201d not just \u201creformist\u201d talking points.\neducation aimed at the whole child which includes recess, libraries, PE, the arts, and world languages in every school\nwraparound services such as nurses, counselors, and social workers where needed\nequitable funding and services\nage-appropriate education including pre-K services and full day kindergartens\nteachers treated as professionals with comparable salaries, adequate planning time, and professional autonomy\nfully supported programs for students with special needs\nwell maintained and safe school buildings\nNote that it assumes that others have a responsibility for public education in addition to teachers \u2013 parents, policy makers, legislators, administration.\nEvery student in Chicago Public Schools (CPS) deserves to have the same quality education as the children of the wealthy. This can happen, but only if decision-makers commit to providing research-based education that is fully-funded and staffed in an equitable fashion throughout the city. [emphasis added]\nA Parent\u2019s Guide to Public Education in the 21st Century, by Russ Walsh\nFinally, here\u2019s a Bill of Rights for children from Russ Walsh\u2019s book, A Parent\u2019s Guide to Public Education in the 21st Century (also available on his blog, here).\n1. Every child has a right to a free, high quality, public education\n2. Every child has a right to attend a well-staffed, well-resourced, clean and safe neighborhood school.\n6. Every child has a right to instruction that is well planned, engaging, and collaborative.\nNote that Walsh\u2019s Bill of Rights, as well as the CTU\u2019s, focus on the rights of children \u2013 on what children need. There\u2019s nothing about busting unions, closing schools, or transferring tax money from public schools, which operate under public oversight, to private corporations or parochial schools. Why? It\u2019s simple.\nMembers of the CTU and Russ Walsh are educators. The editors of the Chicago Tribune are not. Educators know about education.\nComments Off on The Schools All Children Deserve\nFiled under CTU, Public Ed, reform, Walsh\n2016 Medley #23: Time to Pay the Piper\nThe Teacher Shortage: Time to Pay the Piper\nINDIANA\u2019S CONTRIBUTION TO THE NATIONAL TEACHER SHORTAGE\nIt\u2019s no secret that the nation is suffering under a teacher shortage which promises to get worse before it gets better. The image of a career teacher, retiring after a career of 30 or 40 years is diminishing. Nearly 8% of teachers quit before retirement and new teachers leave at an alarming rate.\nWhy? Here is a part of what Indiana has done to create its teacher shortage\u2026\nUnder the guise of \u201creform,\u201d policy makers in Indiana have attacked public education and the teaching profession\n\u2026by restricting teachers\u2019 collective bargaining rights. School systems and teachers unions used to be able to bargain class size, insurance, pay scales, work hours, preparation time, and anything else that the two parties agreed on. Now, the only things allowed on the bargaining table are money and insurance.\n\u2026by removing the right to due process. Due process in K-12 education has been mislabeled \u201ctenure.\u201d It gave a teacher the right to a public hearing in front of an impartial judge with binding arbitration. Now, teachers can be fired without any hearing. Indiana teachers still have a right to a meeting with their superintendent or the school board. No impartial hearing is required.\n\u2026by introducing testing as one of the criteria for teacher evaluations. Teachers have no control over their students\u2019 family income, neighborhood safety issues, emotional health, or the ability of their parents to provide adequate medical and dental health care. All of those issues have a bearing on students\u2019 achievement, yet teachers are the only ones \u201cheld accountable\u201d by this bad science. The same policy makers who require that testing be a part of evaluations (aka the legislature and governor) aren\u2019t held accountable for the lack of jobs or the high levels of poverty in a neighborhood. Teachers, however, are deemed responsible even when achievement suffers due to systemic societal problems.\n\u2026by diverting millions of tax dollars to testing corporations, charter schools and vouchers, resulting in reduced funding for public education. Legislators and politicians pocket campaign donations from testing companies, charter owners, and pro-voucher organizations. Testing drains public education dollars through purchase costs and lost instructional time while providing little in return. Charter schools and private schools don\u2019t perform any better than public schools.\n\u2026by reducing teacher pay through merit pay schemes. Indiana school systems no longer pay teachers based on their years of experience or educational achievement. Indiana\u2019s average teacher pay dropped by 10% between 1999 and 2013. Is a falling salary an incentive to join a profession?\n\u2026by changing the rules to allow untrained personnel into public school classrooms. Why would a young person want to amass $30,000 or more in college loan debt on education credentials when they knew they could be replaced by someone with no education training at all? The idea that \u201canyone with content knowledge can teach\u201d reflects the ignorance with which policy makers approach the field of education.\n\u2026by reducing the power of the State Superintendent of Public Instruction, the only state-wide elected education office.\nThe only good thing that I can say about the way \u201creformers\u201d in Indiana have treated teachers is that it\u2019s just as bad, and sometimes worse, in other places.\nTEACHER SHORTAGE ACROSS THE NATION\nPlain Talk: Teacher shortage is payback for anti-teacher attitudes\nJust one example\u2026Wisconsin\u2026\nWhat\u2019s our Republican leaders\u2019 answer for the teacher shortage? Allow them to bargain for a raise? Help them pay off student loans? Give them more support in the classroom? Help the public better understand the key role teachers play in America\u2019s democracy? No, none of the above.\nTheir answer is to actually lower teaching standards instead. Allow anyone with a bachelor\u2019s degree to step in and teach a class based on his or her work experience. No education credits required. No experience dealing with slow-learning students or kids with emotional problems, handling conflicts or developing stimulating lesson plans.\nThe teacher shortage is a national problem caused by competition for taxpayer funds \u2013 privatizer\u2019s greed \u2013 devoted to education. The drain of money from public schools into the pocketbooks of privatizers and corporate testing accounts has added to the fiscal crisis felt by many school systems.\nA COMING CRISIS IN TEACHING?\nMuch of the recent focus on teacher shortages is due to the release of A Coming Crisis in Teaching? Teacher Supply, Demand, and Shortages in the U.S., a report by Linda Darling-Hammond\u2019s Learning Policy Institute. The report provides four recommendations. Unfortunately, each requires an economic commitment to education that the nation has been unable to muster.\nBased on research reviewed on what matters for recruiting and retaining teachers, policies should focus on:\n1. Creating competitive, equitable compensation packages that allow teachers to make a reasonable living across all kinds of communities\u2026\n2. Enhancing the supply of qualified teachers for high-need fields and locations through targeted training subsidies and high-retention pathways\u2026\n3. Improving teacher retention, especially in hard-to-staff schools, through improved mentoring, induction, working conditions, and career development\u2026\n4. Developing a national teacher supply market that can facilitate getting and keeping teachers in the places they are needed over the course of their careers\u2026\nTeachers salaries nationwide are about 17% behind those of comparable workers (based on weekly, not annual, earnings in order to offset the claim that teachers work less during a full year than other workers). Are states willing to increase the amount of money provided for public education? Are they willing to provide more resources based on need? Every one of the four recommendations listed above would require additional funding. Past history suggests that Americans are reluctant to pay for what\u2019s in their own best interest.\nOther reports from the Learning Policy Institute:\nSolving the Teacher Shortage: How to Attract and Retain Excellent Educators\nInformed by the research, the authors offer the following recommendations for federal, state, and local policymakers\u2026\nMinority Teacher Recruitment, Employment, and Retention: 1987 to 2013\nThis brief summarizes the results from a study of the recruitment, employment, and retention of minority k-12 teachers. The study examines the extent and sources of the minority teacher shortage\u2014the low proportion of minority teachers in comparison to the increasing numbers of minority students in the school system. Using the National Center for Education Statistics\u2019 Schools and Staffing Survey/Teacher Follow-Up Survey, we found that efforts over recent decades to recruit more minority teachers and place them in disadvantaged schools have been very successful. But these efforts have been undermined by the high turnover rates of minority teachers\u2014largely because of poor working conditions in their schools. The conditions most strongly related to minority teacher turnover were the degree of teachers\u2019 classroom autonomy and input into school decisions\u2014both increasingly important when coupled with accountability pressures.\nThe Republican candidate for Indiana Governor used the same \u201creform\u201d-based comments about retaining teachers. In his comments below, \u201chigh-performing\u201d likely means a teacher whose students score high on achievement tests. His other comments seem to be exactly what we need \u2013 treat teachers as professionals, provide resources, give teachers a voice.\nLt. Gov. Eric Holcomb, the Republican candidate, told IndyStar the state should offer incentives for high-performing teachers to stay in the classroom.\n\u201cFirst and foremost, we must treat teachers as professionals and as role models, as they were for me, then equip them with the resources they need to succeed,\u201d Holcomb said in a statement. \u201cWe also need to ensure teachers are a part of the conversation and have a seat at the table. Educators know what is best for their schools.\u201d\nFrustration. Burnout. Attrition. It\u2019s Time To Address The National Teacher Shortage\nNPR has generally been supportive of school \u201creform\u201d because of their ties to foundation money \u2013 the Gates Foundation and the Walton Family Foundation.\nWe actually have a teaching situation right now that is probably as bad as it\u2019s been for many, many decades. Teacher salaries have been declining since the 1990s. Teachers are earning about 20 percent less than other college graduates who are similarly educated. Even after you adjust for the difference in the calendar work here, in 30 states a teacher who has a family of four is eligible for several sources of government assistance, including free or reduced-price lunch for their own children in school.\nTeacher working conditions are worse than they\u2019ve been. Most states that cut their budgets because of the recession have not even returned to pre-recession levels of spending, which means books and supplies and materials and computers are in short supply. Class sizes are larger than they used to be. Then we have more and more children in poverty, more and more children who are homeless, so in highly impacted communities, the needs that teachers have to be responsive to on behalf of the children are also very, very taxing.\nThe Teacher Shortage Crisis Is Here\nOne potential solution the researchers offer is that while much focus is placed on recruiting new teachers into the workforce, policymakers should instead focus on ways to keep the teachers that are already there, especially those working in hard-to-staff schools.\nCutting the attrition rate by half, to 4 percent, the researchers underscored, could solve the entire teacher shortage problem.\n\u201cTeaching conditions have hit a low point in the United States in terms of salaries, working conditions and access to strong preparation and mentoring \u2013 all of which would attract and keep a stronger, more sustainable teaching pool,\u201d Darling-Hammond said.\nUS teacher shortage: how to keep teachers from quitting\nFew teachers now work until retirement. Instead, many increasingly move to other professions, go into education administration, or stay home with their families.\nWant to fix the teacher shortage? Here\u2019s how\nThis editorial is specific to the state of New York, but it\u2019s recommendations, with tweaks for specific states, could work everywhere.\n1. Eliminate the EdTPA. This system, promoted as increasing standards for teachers, is in reality so onerous and poorly thought out that it is discouraging qualified applicants to the profession. It costs both teacher candidates and the state millions, and has resulted in teacher candidates being less prepared for teaching rather than more so.\n2. Eliminate standardized testing in the public schools and for teacher candidate preparation. Research shows the best indicator of a student\u2019s success is their GPA, not standardized test scores. Standardized testing merely adds to the coffers of the private testing industry. Reinstitute teacher-created Regent\u2019s exams. Teacher created exams are age appropriate, more accurately test the learning of students and cost much less than corporate prepared tests.\n3. Let teachers mark their own students\u2019 tests. It\u2019s cheaper and better.\n4. Eliminate corporate \u201ccanned\u201d teaching modules created to meet Common Core Standards, and allow teachers to create their lesson plans. Teachers are the experts; release their creativity so that they can teach students properly.\n5. Make the teaching profession attractive financially. Eliminate Tiers V and VI in the teacher retirement system. One of the tradeoffs teachers had accepted for the relatively low pay for the amount of education required was a decent pension. Tiers V and VI were created to punish teachers, not reward them for their service.\n6. Create a \u201cTeacher Bar Association\u201d to establish educational requirements for teachers for public and charter schools, thus officially recognizing that teaching is a profession. Lawyers, doctors and CPAs are experts in their fields, as are teachers in theirs.\n7. Establish a program to help raise the status of teaching in the public\u2019s consciousness. Few want to enter a profession which is constantly derided by politicians and the press.\n8. Common Core has been a disaster; eliminate it. While the intent was perhaps a good one, it was created by non-educators more for political and profit motives than educational ones.\nComments Off on 2016 Medley #23: Time to Pay the Piper\nFiled under Article Medleys, TeacherShortage\nFlorida has me riled up again. A few days ago Peter Greene reported about the continuing mess in Florida about retention in grade of third graders who don\u2019t pass the #%@! standardized reading test.\nBefore I comment on that let\u2019s look at retention in grade\u2026\nRETENTION IN GRADE DOESN\u2019T WORK\nPosition Statement On Student Grade Retention And Social Promotion\nInitial achievement gains may occur during the year the student is retained. However, the consistent trend across many research studies is that achievement gains decline within 2-3 years of retention, such that retained children either do no better or perform more poorly than similar groups of promoted children. This is true whether children are compared to same-grade peers or comparable students who were promoted.\nWhat Research Says About\u2026 / Grade Retention\nJackson (1975) reviewed 44 studies that met a minimal set of methodological criteria. Finding few with significant results or even compelling patterns, he concluded that the evidence was insufficient to support the claim that grade retention is more beneficial than grade promotion. About 10 years later, Holmes and Matthews (1984) reviewed an additional 44 studies that all included some type of comparison group of students. These researchers concluded that promoted students had higher academic achievement, better personal adjustment, and more positive attitudes toward school than retained students did.\nMoving ahead another 17 years, Jimerson (2001) summarized the historical research and added a carefully culled set of studies conducted between 1990 and 1999, all of which included comparison groups of promoted students. Most of the comparisons showed no significant differences between promoted and retained students on measures of achievement or personal and social adjustment. In those studies that did show a difference, the results favored the promoted students, especially on measures of achievement.\nRETENTION IN GRADE IS A BIG WASTE OF MONEY\nIn their 2014 book, 50 Myths and Lies that Threaten America\u2019s Public Schools, David C. Berliner and Gene V. Glass asked, \u201cDoes flunking students waste money?\u201d\nYes. Retention in grade is not optional in about 13 states and in many school districts. Many jurisdictions have mandated retention for children not reading at grade level, usually based on a test given at 3rd grade. States and districts with this policy, therefore, have agreed to spend an extra year\u2019s cost of schooling on a child not performing well on standardized tests. This currently averages out to about $11,000 per child annually in our nation\u2019s public schools. With at least 5 million children in the system who have been left back at least once, and the commitment of American schools to an average of $11,000 per child per extra year of schooling, the United States could be spending $55 billion annually on a policy that doesn\u2019t work well for most children.\nRETENTION IN GRADE CAN BE HARMFUL TO STUDENTS\n\u2022 In adolescence, retained students are more likely to experience problems such as poor interactions with peers, disliking school, behavior problems, and lower self-esteem.\n\u2022 Students who were retained are 5\u201311 times more likely to drop out of school. The probability is even higher for students who are retained more than once. Actually, grade retention is one of the most powerful predictors of high school drop out.\n\u2022 For most students, grade retention had a negative impact on all areas of achievement (e.g., reading, math, and oral and written language) and social and emotional adjustment (e.g., peer relationships, self-esteem, problem behaviors, and attendance).\n\u2022 A study of sixth graders\u2019 perceptions indicated that they consider retention as one of the most stressful life events.\nNew research suggests repeating elementary school grades \u2014 even kindergarten \u2014 is harmful\nA new study ,\u201cThe Scarring Effects of Primary-Grade Retention? A Study of Cumulative Advantage in the Educational Career,\u201d by Notre Dame sociologist Megan Andrew, published Sept. 26, 2014, in the journal Social Forces is an empirically solid analysis that adds more weight to those who say retention \u2014 what education wonks call repeating a grade \u2014 is ultimately harmful.\nWHY WE RETAIN STUDENTS \u2013 A FALSE DICHOTOMY\nLet\u2019s summarize. Retention\u2026\n\u2026harms students\nSo why do we continue to do it?\nReason number one for teachers favoring retention in grade: \u201cThe student needs a year to \u2018catch up.'\u201d It may seem like it works in the year immediately following retention, but it doesn\u2019t last.\nReason number two for teachers: \u201cWe don\u2019t have any other options. Lack of money means that there aren\u2019t enough specialists to help the kids who really need it. Special education is not indicated for every child who has difficulty reading. We didn\u2019t have money for anything which could have helped three years ago when these kids were in kindergarten (or earlier in Pre-K programs), and now we\u2019re stuck without anything else to do.\u201d\nReason number three, the false dichotomy favored by legislators, pundits, and others who don\u2019t know squat about developmentally appropriate instruction and education: \u201cSocial promotion doesn\u2019t work and we have to do something!\u201d\nAnd reason number four for the same population, \u201cWe\u2019re using the tests (which I support because I get campaign contributions from testing companies) for \u2018accountability.\u2019 \u2018Accountability\u2019 needs consequences.\u201d\nWHAT DOES WORK? \u2013 EARLY INTERVENTION\nAn argument against early intervention is that it\u2019s too expensive. In fact, early intervention is poorly funded in most states because we\u2019re a nation that doesn\u2019t look forward. We only react to things when they happen. In addition, we\u2019re not willing to pay for our future. The middle class is tired of being taxed to pay for everything which benefits society while the top 1% avoids its tax responsibility.\nHowever, when compared to retention, early intervention is a bargain. Russ Walsh explains in his blog entry, Attention, Not Retention\nIt costs, on average, about 11,000 dollars to retain a child (the cost of an extra year of school). By not retaining children, schools will save thousands of dollars in costs, not to mention all the human costs related to high drop-out rates and behavior issues related to retention. With this money schools need to give students the attention they need, in the form of programs that Berliner and Glass, among others, have found to be effective. Individual tutoring, summer programs and early intervention programs, such as Reading Recovery, have been shown to be effective ways to provide struggling students with the attention needed to \u201ccatch-up.\u201d For high-poverty areas, the money could also be better spent on early childhood programs, wrap around health programs and smaller class sizes.\nSome school systems in Florida are telling parents who choose to opt their children out of the third grade reading test, that their children will not be allowed in fourth grade no matter what proof they can give of their child\u2019s ability to read. Portfolios won\u2019t work. Report Cards don\u2019t matter.\nSome of these same people \u2013 legislators, politicians, edupreneurs \u2013 will insist that all parents be given \u201cchoice\u201d when it comes to funding for charter schools and vouchers. \u201cChoice\u201d for privatization means more tax money for private corporations. No \u201cChoice\u201d for testing means more tax money for testing companies. Follow the money.\nOn Labor Day, 2016, Peter Greene, wrote,\nFL: Still Stupidly Punishing Children\nThis is the kind of spectacle you get when you insist on enforcing a stupid law, and the law that says students must pass the Big Standardized Test in order to move on to fourth grade is a deeply stupid law, without a shred of science to back it up. But this is the hill on which the state has decided to fight the opt out battle, hoping that a battery of nuisance motions and legions of taxpayer-financed lawyers will somehow beat these children and their families down so that finally the Supreme Test Gods can receive their proper homage. [emphasis added]\nLegislators and politicians in Florida and other states have decided that children\u20268 and 9 year old children\u2026must be punished because adults\u2026\ndon\u2019t understand the developmental aspects of reading\nhave failed to put in place sufficient interventions for students who struggle\nare so tied to testing \u2013 either through misinformation, or monetary connections \u2013 that they allow this child abuse\nWe ought to spend money on things that will actually help children instead of wasting money lining the pockets of testing companies.\nUnfortunately, children who struggle with reading don\u2019t make campaign contributions.\nComments Off on #%@!

        "raw_content": "Molecular Size and Charge Effects on Nucleocytoplasmic Transport Studied By Single-Molecule Microscopy\nAlexander Goryaynov, Bowling Green State University\nWeidong Yang, PhD\nPeter Lu, PhD (Committee Member)\nLiangfeng Sun, PhD (Committee Member)\nIn eukaryotic cells, essential genetic information is sequestered in the prominent organelle nucleus. To facilitate the selective bidirectional trafficking of genetic material, proteins and ribonucleoprotein cargoes across the nuclear envelope (NE), nucleus has evolved the highly sophisticated machinery, nuclear pore complex (NPC). Thousands of NPCs on the surface of the NE serve as highly-selective machinery for bidirectional nucleocytoplasmic transport. The selective barrier, which is formed by the natively unfolded phenylalanine-glycine (FG)-nucleoporins (Nups), in the NPC allows for two transport modes: passive diffusion of small signal-independent molecules (< 20-40 kDa) and transport-receptor facilitated translocation of signal-dependant cargoes. The molecular size of a cargo molecule is one of the important parameters that determine the final transport mode for its transport through the NPCs. Due to the elusive native configuration of the FG-Nup barrier, however, the dependence of the structure of the channel, the transport kinetics and the exact selective mechanism on the molecular size remain in dispute. The second important criterion for nucleocytoplasmic transport selectivity through the NPCs is the charges of the transiting molecules. Previously it was suggested that the positively charged FG-Nups form a selective barrier which would inhibit the transport of positively charged cargoes unless they are chaperoned by negatively charged transport receptors. However, the lack of complete knowledge about the precise structure of the FG-barrier in the NPC leaves much space for speculations on the charge effect of substrates on passive and facilitated transport. Finally, the surface hydrophobicity of substrates has been shown to be another important selection criterion. The hydrophobic interactions between the FG-barrier and transport receptors are believed to be the essential process for transport receptor-facilitated translocation through the NPCs. However, it is still unknown whether only the hydrophobic surface of a cargo molecule can enhance its successful transport, especially for those large molecules above the cut-off size. Thorough study of these selection criteria for nucleocytoplasmic transport under physiological conditions will finally provide better understanding of the structure and function of the NPC and eventually resolve the nucleocytoplasmic transport mechanism. It is known that molecules interact with the flexible FG-Nups at the millisecond or the sub-millisecond level in a three dimensional space of the NPC. To fully appreciate the structural complexity of the NPC and its mechanism, thus, one should be able to capture these extremely fast interactions with an outstanding precision in all three dimensions. None of the existing techniques is capable of doing that. A novel method is needed. We have developed an innovative single-point edge-excitation sub-diffraction (SPEED) microscopy in our lab, which allows us to track single transiting molecules with super spatiotemporal resolutions and create 3D spatial density map of the transient interactions in the NPC[1]. By the method, we plan to investigate the transport kinetics and three-dimensional spatial pathways of various transport probes with various sizes, hydrophobicities and charges in permeabilized Hela cells. Our major findings include: (i) there is a viscous self-regulated channel that serves as a sole gateway for passive diffusion of small- and medium-sized molecules, occluded by the distinct, but not completely spatially separated pathways of facilitated translocation on the periphery of the NPC; (ii) the net positive charge of the NPC indeed affects the efficiency of both passive diffusion and facilitated translocation depending on the charge of the cargo molecules, and also affects the spatial distribution of the molecules depending on their charges; (iii) the highly...\nGoryaynov, Alexander, \"Molecular Size and Charge Effects on Nucleocytoplasmic Transport Studied By Single-Molecule Microscopy\" (2013).

The jute-cotton blend ratios of each category of yarn (10s, 15s and 20s) were 80: 20, 70:30, 60:40, 50:50, 40:60, 30:70, 20:80 and 10:90, respectively. For each individual count of yarn, it was observed from the test result that the properties of 50:50/jute:cotton blended yarn showed very nearer property to the 100% cotton yarn. For coarse count (10s), 80:20/jute:cotton showed very closer property to the 50:50/jute:cotton blended yarn.

CNN.com: \"Uganda's successful anti-AIDS program targets youth\"\nhttp://www.cnn.com/WORLD/africa/9909/03/uganda.aids/\nOn Monday, Vice President Al Gore opened the first UN Security Council of the new century with the announcement of US intentions to focus the council's agenda for the next week on the AIDS epidemic in Africa. Part of a larger focus on Africa in general for the month-long tenure of the US chairship, this announcement marks the first time the Security Council has taken up a major world health crisis. Usually, such an issue is handled by the World Health Organization with the Security Council restricting itself to matters of international relations and politics. Ambassador Richard Holbrooke justifies such a departure from tradition by pointing out that last year the AIDS epidemic killed ten times as many as armed conflict in Africa (2,000,000 deaths from AIDS vs. 200,000 deaths in combat). In several African nations, one in four individuals are infected. In addition, 10,000,000 children have been orphaned by the epidemic on a continent where social support systems are often inadequate; and in some cities, as many as 40 percent of all adults have HIV. The administration hopes that such a bold move will help bring renewed attention to the crisis and break down the taboo against acknowledging a disease that Peter Piot, the director of UNAIDS, believes has the \"potential to destabilize the whole continent.\"\nYahoo!News (via the Associated Press) (1) and the Boston Globe(2) summarize the Security Council agenda for this month. CNN reports on the administration's choice of Vice-President Gore to open the Security Council session (3). The Boston Globe's four-part report (4) provides substantial background on the African AIDS crisis, including statistics, in-depth personal coverage, and analysis of the political and cultural obstacles to remedying the situation. The Village Voice offers an eight-part series (5) on the crisis that covers some of the same territory as the Globe's report, but also goes into more detail on some of the cultural consequences of the epidemic. UNAIDS (6) provides reports, data, and updates on the World AIDS campaign. A new report on children orphaned by AIDS in Africa is also posted here (see the December 10, 1999 Scout Report). MSNBC (7) features captioned photographs that graphically detail the individual suffering caused by the epidemic. AIDSLink South Africa (8) tries to diminish that suffering by supporting \"indigent communities affected by AIDS, through financial grants, counseling, legal support and advice, and skill building workshops.\" Last fall, CNN ran a story chronicling successful anti-AIDS efforts in Uganda (9)--a source of hope.

        "raw_content": "Our world is connected unlike ever before. The internet has enabled the rise of E-commerce and, with it, increased shipping and transport rates.\nIn other words, we like to buy things online \u2014 and the things we buy need to get to us on time.\nTrucks are used to move goods from point A to point B. Over 15,000 tons of shipments were moved over land in commercial trucks in 2015, and the rate is growing every year \u2014 the Bureau of Transportation Statistics estimates that by 2045, that number will reach over 25,000 tons. At the same time, America\u2019s trucker shortage is growing; an ATA report in October of 2017 warned that the trucking industry was going to be short 50,000 drivers by the end of 2017, and with E-commerce and shipping economies thriving, there\u2019s no indication that things have changed.\nNot enough truckers and a lot of shipments might equal long hours for a lot of drivers \u2014 but safety always has to come first. Because of this situation a number of regulations have been introduced with the intention of keeping drivers and their shipments out of harm \u2014 regulations like the Hours of Service rules finalized in 2011 by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA).\nHours of Service regulations were developed to combat the dangers of driving while tired after long days on the road. They concern only drivers that are operating a commercial vehicle; private vehicle use doesn\u2019t fall under the scope of the regulations. Commercial passenger buses, however, do have their own set of Hours of Service regulations that are different from the cargo-capable truck Hours of Service regulations.\nGenerally, intrastate trucking doesn\u2019t fall under the Hours of Service regulations. However, each state has similar laws to the Hours of Service regulations, so it\u2019s a good idea to stick to the regulations no matter what.\nThe federal commercial trucking regulations are as follows:\nAn 11 hour driving limit that is refreshed after 10 consecutive hours off duty;\nA 14 hour shift limit, wherein drivers cannot drive past the 14th consecutive hour of their shift, even if they haven\u2019t driven 11 hours in one 14 hour period;\nA rest break mandate that says drivers may only drive if it\u2019s been less than 8 hours since their last off-duty or sleeper berth period of 30 minutes, a regulation that does not apply to those using the short-haul exceptions;\nA 60/70 hour limit wherein a driver may not drive more than 60 hours in 7 consecutive days or 70 hours in 8 consecutive days, both of which can be refreshed at any point by taking 34 consecutive off duty and/or sleeper berth hours; and\nA sleeper berth provision allowing for off duty rest in the sleeper berth.\nThe regulations also include a requirement for two off duty periods between 1:00 AM and 5:00AM and a once-a-week limit on use of the 34 hour restart, but enforcement of those two specific regulations is non-existent.\nThe Enforcement\nAs more truck drivers are expected to retire in the coming years, the demand for drivers is going to grow. Companies may be tempted to skirt regulations to make deliveries without the extra cost of hiring more drivers. They should beware \u2014 ignoring the Hours of Service regulations can have costly consequences. With electronic logging devices \u2014 ELDs \u2014 replacing paper logs through the regulations, tracking violations isn\u2019t hard, and refusing to use ELDs can result in drivers being removed from the road.\nA driver being pulled from the road isn\u2019t the only risk of ignoring Hours of Service regulations. Hefty fines, possibly even as high as over $30,000 for some violations, apply. Even the smaller fines, around $1000 to 1500, add up, and the ELDs will record violations.\nHow do you operate around Hours of Service regulations? Simple: by following them.\nUltimately, the Hours of Service regulations were introduced for a reason. Drowsiness on the road is impairing; up to 6000 crashes a year can be attributed to driving while tired. When what you\u2019re driving isn\u2019t a lighter passenger vehicle but, in fact, a 40-ton 18 wheeler, you need to take driving while tired seriously.\nPartnering with a responsible company is your number one way to ensure you avoid Hours of Service violation penalties. Safe drivers will get your cargo there without extra fines, while unsafe drivers run the risk of lost profit and worse \u2014 devastating crashes.\nIf you\u2019re looking to partner with a company that values safety, why not get in touch?",

        "raw_content": "Under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), which governs wage and hour issues such as minimum wage and overtime pay, the statute of limitations is generally two years. The FLSA, however, sets the limitations period for \u201cwillful\u201d violations at three years. In a recent decision by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit, the Court defined what constitutes a \u201cwillful\u201d violation of the FLSA.\nIn Souryavong v. Lackawanna County, the plaintiffs worked for the county in two separate part-time capacities. The county tracked and paid these employees for each of their individual jobs, but later realized that it had not aggregated the hours in both jobs, resulting in unpaid overtime for weeks where an employee worked more than 40 hours combined.\nAt trial, the county did not dispute that it violated the FLSA by failing to pay overtime, but did dispute that this violation was \u201cwillful.\u201d In an effort to show \u201cwillfulness,\u201d the plaintiffs introduced evidence that the county generally understood its overtime obligations as well as an e-mail among county officials with a subject line of \u201ccounty wage and hour issues.\u201d The trial court ultimately sided with the county, and the plaintiffs appealed.\nThe Third Circuit affirmed the district court, finding that the plaintiffs\u2019 evidence was insufficient to establish a \u201cwillful\u201d violation. The court noted that although the county was generally aware of its obligations under the FLSA, it was not specifically aware of the aggregation issue involving the plaintiffs. The court held that a \u201cwillful\u201d violation entails situations when an employer, at the time of a FLSA violation, either \u201cknew\u201d that its conduct was illegal or showed \u201creckless disregard.\u201d It continued that acting \u201cunreasonably\u201d is not enough\u2014\u201csome degree of actual awareness\u201d and a \u201cdegree of egregiousness\u201d is necessary.\nThis decision emphasizes the importance of ensuring that policies and practices regarding timekeeping and compensation are correct so as to avoid a finding of \u201creckless disregard\u201d and, in turn, \u201cwillfulness.\u201d",

Gone are the days when only a 20-year veteran leaves the service with a nest egg. Going forward, those who serve as little as two years will return to civilian life with retirement savings. The new system introduces 401(k)-type savings for military personnel while downsizing the traditional pension benefit\u2014a trade the corporate world has been making for 35 years.

The dog became his loyal companion, refusing to leave his side during the week-long event.\nAfter completing the race, Leonard couldn\u2019t possibly fathom having to say goodbye to his newfound pal, so he kickstarted plans to bring Gobi to Scotland by Christmas time. Leonard launched an appeal on Crowdfunder to raise the \u00a35,000 needed to cover the medical and quarantine costs in order to \u201cBring Gobi Home.\u201d That project has already reached its goal and then some, raising \u00a319,460.\nHowever, on Tuesday, Leonard announced some heartbreaking news on Facebook. Gobi had gone missing in Urumqi.\nTo help find his beloved pet, Leonard has launched an all-out search. Teams of people are looking for Gobi around the clock, there are missing posters posted throughout the city carrying a \u00a31000 reward, and he has taken out an advertisement in a local paper.\nLeonard is asking everyone living in China, or with friends and family in China, to share the QR code below on WeChat to raise awareness and help find Gobi.\nThe most recent update came at 3:24 p.m. earlier today. Leonard said that the search for Gobi has widened and more reward posters are being posted on city streets and buses and more ads are being taken out in local papers.\n[Images via Bring Gobi Home]",

        "raw_content": "We are Disciples of Jesus who love His animal kingdom! I, Kathy, started a Spiritual venture a few years ago that has led me to this blog endeavor, when one day I was awakened to the industrialization and incorporating of animals into factory settings. Animals today are exploited on every level by man: factory farms, vivisection, fur farms, puppy mills, canned hunting and hunting in general as a sport, animals in entertainment, and others.\nThe focus of this site will be mainly on our special calling to help bring the voice of Christ to issues surrounding His animal Kingdom; in no way are we alienating the human race nor are we down playing the many serious issues plaguing mankind; to the contrary. Christ\u2019s love is indivisible. His call to us to care for the earth and the animals is as urgent as is our call within any issue plaguing mankind, as we witness for ourselves what is happening to the human race precisely because we have not heeded this particular call. There is room within the doctrine of the church for these issues. The call to practice Christ\u2019s Kingdom values of love, kindness, mercy, non-violence extend to ALL He has made, first out of respect, love, and obedience to our Mutual Creator, and next, because as those created in His Image, we were created to do so.\nThis site will endeavor:\nUsing a Biblical approach, to share Christ\u2019s love for us and all He has created, following the Holy Spirit\u2019s lead, using the truth of scripture as it is revealed to us;\nTo focus on who animals are by exploring who they were created to be;\nTo explore what mankind\u2019s role as the Shepherd over creation and the earth in the Image of the Good Shepherd is meant to look like;\nTo create a resource page to give the readers a place to find educational material on the topic of animal exploitation and abuse; information as to how to get involved and take action; information on diet and how to live a Vegan life-style;\nTo encourage others to speak out to their church leaders about the need for Creation Care Ministries within their own church body;\nTo serve as a tool for individuals to take information to their church bodies; as churches awaken to their role in creation care, we on this site hope to provide some material that leaders can use to help them create Creation Care Ministries for the body of Christ for which they serve, or point them to where they can be found;\nTo work alongside the animal welfare movement in their most important work, bringing the love of Christ with us in all we do, in hopes of revealing to those who have become hardened that our Lord and Savior really is a loving God. To those who don\u2019t know Him, we invite you to take a look and make an informed decision to such an important question as to what this life experience is really all about! You will find when you search with your whole heart for Him and for the truth, that Our Abba Father will show up for you (Jeremiah 29:13); He is real, He is there for us, He does love animals very much, and He loves animal welfarists, each and every one, unsurpassably; it isn\u2019t and never was His intent that mankind exploit animals the way that we have and do, and Jesus Christ really still is the answer to overcome every kind of evil plaguing this troubled world.\nTHANK YOU for visiting Shepherding All God\u2019s Creatures!!

Sleep apnea is a common sleep disorder characterized by pauses in breathing during sleep, sometimes accompanied by loud snoring, often in patients who are overweight or have a large neck circumference. The disorder can increase risk of high blood pressure, diabetes, heart attack, and stroke if left untreated. Like many people with sleep apnea, Shaq was diagnosed after a night of study in the sleep lab, and was told to wear a mask at night that keeps airways unobstructed so that he can get full nights of quality sleep.",

        "raw_content": "Using \u2018Design for Experience\u2019 for Innovation\nWe saw that sustaining and disruptive innovations exist in the perspective of people\u2019s experiences of technology, not just in the perspecti...\nWe saw that sustaining and disruptive innovations exist in the perspective of people\u2019s experiences of technology, not just in the perspective of technology. Such innovations are created within the interaction between three aspects, namely: changes in the socio-cultural, technological, and economic environments; the state of the person that receives this change; and the firm that utilizes this change. When a dominant design is established, companies seek continuous change through oneway, sustaining innovations. But when it exceeds a certain level, sustaining innovation incites cognitive dissonance among users. When this dissonance heightens to a degree that the dominant degree cannot resolve, other firms that seek to solve this problem come up with disruptive innovations that steer towards the opposite direction of the dominant design. Through this process, a new dominant design is established.\nUsability tests of the past focused on incremental change. They attempted to find out the usability issues of a product or service, and companies utilized them to provide new interfaces or interactions that resolved the usability issues. This is why incremental innovation is claimed to be more appropriate to human-centered design methodology (Norman 2013; Norman and Verganti 2014).\nOn the other hand, there aren\u2019t many cases that deal with disruptive innovation in the eyes of a person\u2019s experience. This is because both the frequency of disruptive innovation is low and its success rate is not very high either. However, the reason we should pay attention to disruptive innovation is because disruptive innovation is a golden opportunity to overcome the dominant design of the market and create a new one.\nNonetheless, it is not recommended to provide a disruptive innovation too quickly, while people do not feel cognitively dissonant enough and the current dominant design still provides satisfaction. In that case companies must focus on sustaining innovations that can close the competitive discrepancy with other companies within the boundaries of the dominant design. In other words, firms must focus on the current dominant design and come up with new yet incremental ways to enhance the design of a product or service. However, once the conflict is heightened enough and the discrepancy between human experience and dominant design is high enough, firms no longer need to rely on the dominant design. They must actively come up with a product or service that can act as a disruptive innovation. But to do this, there are a few prerequisite conditions.\nFirstly, a company must understand the current dominant design in the perspective of human experience. They must meticulously investigate what characteristics the dominant design possesses in terms of sense of presence, locus of causality, and relational cohesiveness. To do this, it would be helpful to compose a three dimensional model of experience.\nSecondly, a company must understand the degree of change and direction of sustaining innovation after a dominant design has been settled. We must analyze the directional changes of the sense of presence, locus of causality, and relational cohesiveness during the sustaining innovation period. Previously, I mentioned that while a sense of presence heightens, the locus of causality shifts towards the external, and relational cohesiveness strengthens. However, this is only a general pattern; based\non the specific type of product or service, change may occur in a different direction.\nThirdly, companies must measure the degree of cognitive dissonance that people feel towards the current dominant design. There are two ways to do this: the first is to analyze the difference between what the dominant design offers and the degree of what people desire in terms of sense of presence, locus of causality, and relational cohesion for each of the threads of experience. Cognitive dissonance can only be high when the differences between people\u2019s striving aspirations and the dominant design are large. Another method is to measure the negative symptoms that arise due to cognitive dissonance. As previously mentioned, cognitive dissonance can be measured by three kinds of aspects: (1) despair and irritation in the sensual aspect, (2) doubt about one\u2019s own judgment in the judgmental aspect, and (3) dissatisfaction about the purchasing process or towards others involved in the purchasing process in the compositional aspect.\nAfter deducing new experiential points of balance through the above methods, the next step is to find an effective method to provide a balanced experience to people. Think about what important experience elements can raise or lower the sense of presence, externalize or internalize the locus of causality, and raise or lower relational cohesiveness. Then, consider what design features are needed to express these experience elements in an actual product or service.\nThe Digital Media Strategy Blog: Using \u2018Design for Experience\u2019 for Innovation\nhttps://2.bp.blogspot.com/-MeYaFHWP6D4/VVIEOt1mcDI/AAAAAAAABOk/iwhqUXDLwMQ/s400/UX-Design.jpg\nhttps://2.bp.blogspot.com/-MeYaFHWP6D4/VVIEOt1mcDI/AAAAAAAABOk/iwhqUXDLwMQ/s72-c/UX-Design.jpg\nhttps://social-media-strategy-template.blogspot.com/2015/05/using-design-for-experience-innovation.html",

        "title": "Looking for social media data at the right places | TDMSB",
        "raw_content": "Looking for social media data at the right places\nSomewhere around 1964, George Fuechsel is thought to have coined the phrase \u201cgarbage in, garbage out.\u201d This popular computer science slang ...\nSomewhere around 1964, George Fuechsel is thought to have coined the phrase \u201cgarbage in, garbage out.\u201d This popular computer science slang expression comes from early programmer education. Fuechsel taught his classes that they must check and recheck their data and coding to ensure that the results they achieved were valid. In this new era of computing, programmers were trained to test each step in their programs and cautioned not to expect that a resulting program would do the right thing even when given imperfect input. This basic premise also is true today in data analytics. Simply stated, if you use the wrong data, the results will be wrong (or worse, inaccurate).\nSo while originally intended for programming, this expression is equally applicable to data analysis. In this post, we explore what is meant by data identification and describe how this concept fits into the overall landscape of social media data analytics.\nData identification is the process of identifying the subset of available data to focus on for an analysis. A key element of choosing the appropriate data source is to take the time to understand the outcomes/results.\nWhat Social Media Data Do We Mean?\nThink of data as the raw material that is transformed into information and ultimately knowledge. Data by itself as a concrete concept can be viewed as the lowest level of abstraction from which information (and then knowledge) can be derived. Unprocessed data refers to a collection of numbers, characters, and phrases (snippets of a blog, tweet, and so on) think of this as \u201cobservations\u201d\u2014that are somewhat random and by themselves convey no meaningful information or knowledge. Many pieces of data, when combined together, analyzed, and processed, produce that next level of abstraction: information.\nData by itself is fairly useless; however, as we process it (or begin to interpret it), it begins to become useful as it conveys some kind of message. At this point, we deem it \u201cinformation.\u201d Information is simply data that has been processed in such a way as to be meaningful to someone or something: it contains meaning, whereas data does not.\nTo make this concept easier to understand, let\u2019s consider a highly simplified version of a real project that we executed. The different levels of the social media business value pyramid could be identified as follows:\nNoisy Data - There is a lot of conversation happening in the marketplace about our new product, related products, and competitors\u2019 products.\nFiltered Data - There is a lot of conversation happening in the marketplace about our new product.\nInformation - The conversation about our product peaked during announcements or events but tapered off precipitously shortly after the events.\nKnowledge - The majority of the conversation that is taking place in the marketplace is being generated by our own marketing messages. The marketplace isn\u2019t picking up the message and engaging with it.\nWisdom - Our marketing campaign for this particular brand of machines is really not working.\nThe end goal is to take all of the observations we can collect (our data), filter them so we look at only the relevant set of \u201cpuzzle pieces,\u201d and by applying some kinds of processing to it, convert, or organize, that data into meaningful information. By \u201cmeaningful,\u201d we mean it expresses the data in a way that conveys a new message or insight. Figure below shows a simple diagram that illustrates this concept.\nAccording to the online Merriam-Webster dictionary, knowledge is\nthe fact or condition of knowing something with familiarity gained through experience or association\nacquaintance with or understanding of a science, art, or technique. [2] That familiarity allows us to make better decisions based on the facts presentedto us. And it then follows that wisdom is the ability to think and act using this derived knowledge as well as our set of experiences, common sense, and insight.\nIt all starts at the bottom of that pyramid: the data. But we need to ensure we have the right data. As Chief Engineer Montgomery Scott (of the Starship Enterprise) says : \u201cHow many times do I have to tell you? The right tool [or the right data source] for the right job!\nWhat Subset of Content Are We Interested In?\nIn the context of social media analysis, data identification simply means \u201cwhat\u201d content are we interested in. In addition to the \u201ctext\u201d of the content, we want to know:\nWho wrote the text?\nWhere was it found (or in which social media venue did it appear)?\nAre we interested in information from a specific locale?\nWhen did someone say something in social media?\nAs an example, consider the following: In 2012, Malala Yousafzai, a young girl from Pakistan, made national headlines as a result of the brutal attack against her by Taliban. She had taken a public stand on the rights for education for women in Pakistan. She has become widely known for her activism in Pakistan, where the Taliban had at times banned girls from attending school.\nIn 2009, Malala was working with the BBC and she created her blog. In this blog, she wrote of life under the Taliban rule in Swat valley, Pakistan, and her strong support for a woman\u2019s right to an education. The views of a 12-year-old girl on women\u2019s education and the Taliban regime caused quite a sensation. Many newspapers worldwide gave prominent coverage to her blog and her views. New York Times even created a documentary film about her life and views of the social situations in her region of the world. This obviously made her quite famous and her enemies quite upset. In October 2012, when Malala boarded her school bus, a gunman boarded the bus and fired three shots directly at her. She suffered major injuries to her face. She was in critical condition for several days. She was later transferred to a hospital in England for rehabilitation. Even though a lot of Islamic religious leaders came to her support after this incident, the Taliban was still intent on harming her and her family. This assassination attempt sparked an international outpouring of support for Malala, ultimately leading to her nomination for the 2013 Nobel Peace Prize.\nSo in this case, say we were trying to pose the question, \u201cWhat is the reaction of the general population to Malala, the young girl from Pakistan who defied Al Qaeda, in the Western media?\u201d Where should we look for relevant data to analyze?\nThe word relevant here is important. Remember the basic principle of garbage in, garbage out. We could pull data from \u201ceverywhere\u201d in the social media space, but we want to be sure that the data we use in our analysis is relevant to the question we are trying to answer. The data identification process would go as follows:\nWe want to analyze content in the media, so we might choose to focus on popular news media and ignore blogs, bulletin boards, Twitter, and so on.\nWe want to analyze content in the Western media, so we would focus on the content emanating from a region considered \u201cWest\u201d and eliminate content from other regions.\nThe process of identifying relevant data can be accomplished in a single step, or it might take multiple steps, depending on the type of project we are working on. The process described in this section can be considered as follows:\nStep 1: What content are we interested in?\nIn subsequent sections, we discuss additional possible steps as follows:\nStep 2: Whose comments are we interested in?\nStep 3: What window of time are we interested in?\nA second possible step in the data identification process gets into more details. Considering the previous example, we need to think about issues such as the following:\nShould we eliminate content from sources that are known to be pro Al Qaeda because of negative bias?\nShould we eliminate all content from young girls because of positive bias?\nBias is a prejudice in favor of or against one thing, person, or group compared with another, usually in a way that is considered to be unfair. Being biased implies that we may have only one side of a story; thus, any conclusions we make from the data provided are bound to be biased toward one side. Being biased means that the entire data collected already had a preconceived opinion, and any analysis done on it would be useless.\nFor example, is there a segment of the population in our target audience, say young girls, who are so impressed by the inherent heroism in the stance taken by another girl against an organization that their comments may not be objective enough for our study?\nThe Digital Media Strategy Blog: Looking for social media data at the right places\nhttps://1.bp.blogspot.com/-03aLLAJXn98/VuaSlSq067I/AAAAAAAABhM/kXk1AG6NauUm1MaDMPcwTWDegjD6LUxwA/s400/Social%2BMedia%2BData.png\nhttps://1.bp.blogspot.com/-03aLLAJXn98/VuaSlSq067I/AAAAAAAABhM/kXk1AG6NauUm1MaDMPcwTWDegjD6LUxwA/s72-c/Social%2BMedia%2BData.png\nhttps://social-media-strategy-template.blogspot.com/2016/03/looking-for-social-media-data.html",

        "raw_content": "anti-fascism civil liberties & police featured soapbox\nCivil liberties \u2014 use \u2019em or lose \u2019em\nMuffy SundeFebruary 2018\nPolice officers push back demonstrators as they protest against President Donald Trump in Washington on Jan. 20, 2017. PHOTO: Jewel Samad/AFP\nI read this article and found it very interesting, thought it might be something for you. The article is called FS Soapbox: Civil liberties \u2014 use \u2019em or lose \u2019em and is located at https://socialism.com/fs-article/civil-liberties-use-em-lose-em/.\nThe U.S. government, monarchs, dictators and other protectors of the rich hate civil liberties. Because they provide protections to poor and working people against abusive regimes. In the U.S. these are called the Bill of Rights.\nMuffy Sunde\nThese rights were not in the original of the U.S. Constitution, which was written to protect slave owners and big property owners. Radicals and small farmers who threatened to stop its ratification forced the inclusion of the first 10 amendments \u2014 the Bill of Rights.\nExercising our civil liberties has never been an easy ride. Slave owners, property owners and big business have been trying to squelch our free speech rights to organize and protest since the ink was dry.\nThe Haymarket martyrs were railroaded in 1886 to try to stop the movement for the eight-hour day. Socialists, anarchists and unionist immigrants were deported during WWI to chill support for the Russian Revolution. During WWII, masses of U.S. residents of Japanese, and even some of German and Italian backgrounds, were thrown into concentration camps.\nCongress passed the USA Patriot Act after 9/11 and renewed it in 2014. It shreds privacy and free speech and denies trials to \u201cterror\u201d suspects.\nI admit, it\u2019s tempting to blame Trump for the current assault on civil liberties. He is so contemptuous of protesters who dogged his inauguration, so dismissive of football players who dare take a knee against police brutality. But he is just the latest example of state repression, not the source.\nThe U.S. media provokes fear about anti-Nazi \u201cviolence\u201d at counter-demonstrations, and ignores the real threat to lives and free speech represented by fascist mobs. Its commentaries and reporting after the Charlottesville killing made little effort to explain the profound difference between what neo-Nazis and anti-fascists stand for.\nU.S. government \u201cterrorist baiting,\u201d especially against Antifa \u2014 the anarchist wing of the anti-fascist movement, is an attempt to scare us into silence. As is the jailing of Reality Winner for whistleblowing Russian hacking.\nBut trying to shut us up isn\u2019t working. Hundreds of protesters were arrested in Washington D.C. at Trump\u2019s January 20th inauguration. Many now face felony trials for protesting Trump\u2019s politics. Prosecutors insist demonstrating is a crime. The jury didn\u2019t buy it and acquitted the first six of over 200 protesters charged! All remaining charges must be dropped!\nLoud protests forced the court to drop felony charges against a Black anti-Nazi protester beaten with pipes by white supremacists at the Charlottesville rally.\nIn Tacoma, Wash., six people were arrested for chaining themselves to a drilling rig at the construction site of a liquid natural gas plant. Two went to trial and were found innocent based on testimony by former Puyallup tribal chair Ramona Bennett that they were arrested on contested tribal land and that the tribe opposed the plant.\nNothing generates support like a loud determined fightback. These victories would never have occurred if the movement hadn\u2019t protested in the first place, and then held strong for courtroom disputes.\nGround zero in the battle over civil liberties is the fight to stop growing fascist shock troops. Some tell us to rely on the government to stop them. But these goons are in the street doing the dirty work of corporate America, with the government\u2019s blessing. Their ultimate goal is to smash organized labor and the social justice movement.\nAs a lifelong unionist, I\u2019ve learned that strong unions are vital to our working-class well-being. They unify across lines of race, gender, sex, and immigration status. They are indispensable to a strong united front against fascism.\nAnyone threatened by racism, union busting, misogyny, anti-Semitism or bigoted bullying is on the same side. We all need to fight white supremacists vigorously to defend free speech.\nIt is not a crime to confront Nazis and run them out of town \u2014 it\u2019s actually our constitutional right, not to mention our human duty. I gotta say, it\u2019s also quite thrilling to stop fascists in their tracks.\nWhen the working class and the ruling class face off against each other, our class vastly outnumbers the bad guys in numbers, skill, and courage.\nWe are fully capable of upending neo-fascism with the combined strength and experience that comes from defending our civil liberties.\nTo support: Inaugural protest arrestees, visit defendj20resistance.org; Tacoma gas plant resistance, visit redefinetacoma.org; Reality Winner, visit couragetoresist.org.",

        "raw_content": "Home / international / Obama wins \u2013 neo-cons routed. New struggles lie ahead\nObama wins \u2013 neo-cons routed. New struggles lie ahead\nThe overwhelming victory for Barack Obama in the US Presidential elections and the major gains scored by the Democrats in the Senate and House of Representatives represent a turning point for the USA. At the time of writing it appears Obama has won over 52.3% of the popular vote and more than 62 million votes. The massive increase in turnout \u2013 which at the time of writing is estimated to have reached 64% \u2013 with the dramatic increase in registration and votes from Afro- Americans, Latinos and young people represent a crushing condemnation of Bush and the neo-cons as well as a generalised, if incoherent demand for \u2018change\u2019 amongst the mass of the US population.\nIn the run up to the election, opinion polls indicated that over 90% of the population thought that Bush was doing a \u201cpoor job\u201d and 80% considered the country to be on the wrong track.\nThe backlash against the Bush regime and the effects of the economic crisis has produced a mass politicisation in the USA, reflected in this election. The huge Obama rallies during the election attended by tens of thousands, with over 250,000 turning out in the early hours of the morning for his victory rally in Chicago, indicate the massive polarisation and high expectations which have developed during the campaign.\nWhile at the time of writing the final results are not yet tallied, it is clear that Obama has scored a massive victory amongst important sections of the population. Amongst young voters Obama was leading by 69% to 31% for McCain. Amongst new first-time voters, Obama won 69% to 30%. The only age group Obama was behind in was the over 60s.\nThroughout the campaign, the question of race has been featured as an important issue which it is, especially in the USA due to its racist history. While racism still exists, Obama\u2019s victory was possible because it cut across ethnic and racial divisions. Unsurprisingly, an estimated 95% of Afro-Americans voted for him. Amongst Latinos, 63% supported him. Amongst whites he won a minority 43%. This does not tell the entire story, as amongst working class whites the figures appear to be more evenly split.\nMcCain\u2019s support was drawn overwhelmingly from small towns and rural areas while Obama won 71% of the vote in the big cities and 59% in the smaller cities and 50% in the suburbs.\nIn this election the decisive factor we saw was the massive class polarisation which has taken place in US society in recent years. Although the vote for Obama and the Democratic Party, which remains a capitalist party, is not a conscious class vote it does indicate the gulf which has opened up and the bitter hatred that has developed towards the rich \u2013 especially the bankers and financiers. The running sore of the Iraq war remains an important issue but as the economic crisis has unfolded it has taken precedence in the minds of people. Consequently in some polls 10% considered Iraq as the major issue. This represented an important change which has taken place during recent months. However, Iraq will remain an important question for people and for the Obama Presidency.\nThroughout the election campaign, tens of thousands of people have been drawn into campaigning work for Obama. In the US and Europe, capitalist commentators have argued that campaigning activity and activists were a thing of the past. TV ads and the media were all that is needed for politics in the modern era they claimed. Both the capitalist Republican and Democrat parties have been election machines with few activists on the ground in the real sense. However, the mobilisation of tens of thousands into activity during this campaign illustrates how people can rapidly be drawn into active politics when they perceive a real struggle to defend their interests is at stake. It is striking how rapidly these layers were drawn into activity for Obama. While TV ads etc, were used by Obama, it is significant that mass meetings, workplace meetings, canvassing and the use of blogs and the web were a major feature of this campaign. This has important lessons for the US and other countries for the future when a new genuine left or workers\u2019 party develops.\nIt is estimated that between 120 and 130 million will have voted in this election making it proportionally the highest turnout since women were given the vote in the US in1920. For hours people queued to cast their votes, in scenes reminiscent of the first post apartheid election in South Africa. For Afro-Americans, especially, Obama\u2019s victory has been as significant as Evo Morales victory was for the indigenous peoples of Bolivia.\n\u2018Socialism\u2019 back on the agenda\nAnother important feature in the election and during the economic crisis has been that the question of \u2018socialism\u2019 has been put back into the political debate in the US for the first time in decades. Ironically this was done by the neo-con Republican right, including in the Congress. They first raised it when the bail out package was announced. Then Obama was accused of being a \u2018socialist\u2019 and even a \u2018communist\u2019 by the Republicans. Neither Obama nor the Democrats are socialists and they both defend capitalism. However, events and the Republican right, have inadvertently put the question of socialism back on the table for discussion. Unfortunately, there was not a strong left or working people\u2019s party which could then capitalise on this. However, as capitalism continues to decline, it will re-introduce the issue for debate and discussion about the way forward in the coming months and years amongst workers and young people, as the effects of the crisis hit home.\nObama\u2019s victory represents a further ideological defeat for the neo-cons and has aroused enormous enthusiasm not only in the USA but internationally. The people of Western Europe, and especially Asia, Africa, and Latin America in particular look to this victory with high hopes and expectations.\nThe crucial issue following Obama\u2019s election victory is what polices his new administration will introduce? Will his programme and polices be able to satisfy the hopes and expectations which have been aroused amongst millions following his victory?\nHigh expectations \u2013 will Obama deliver?\nObama will take power against the background of the worst economic crisis since the 1930s. It is already having a devastating effect on the lives of millions throughout the US. Internationally, US imperialism remains bogged down in two major wars \u2013 Iraq and Afghanistan.\nThe demand for change and reform could compel Obama to introduce some reforms for example in health care and assistance to those threatened with eviction from their homes following the financial meltdown. Those who voted for him will also demand that he takes steps to withdraw troops from Iraq. If he fails to do this, then the massive hope and expectations in him could rapidly evaporate. Yet, even the introduction of some temporary concessions will not be sufficient to resolve the devastating crisis which is unfolding. A genuine mass programme of public works, in the face of a deepening recession and mass unemployment, will be needed. There must be a struggle to demand no evictions from their homes of those who cannot afford mortgage repayments.\nBush rejected a bail-out to the motor industry. Thereby condemning thousands of workers and their families to suffer the misery of unemployment Rather than a bail- out for the directors of major companies threatened with bankruptcy, they should be nationalised with compensation paid to small share-holders on the basis of proven need and put under democratic workers\u2019 control and management. These and other demands will need to be fought for by working people and those who voted for Obama, to fight the effects of the recession.\nThe deepening economic crisis of capitalism will not allow Obama to satisfy the demands and needs of those who voted for him. He is not coming to power at the same stage of the economic cycle as Franklin D Roosevelt did in the 1930s. Roosevelt assumed the presidency in 1933 and introduced the \u2018New Deal\u2019 just as the slump following the 1929 crash was at its lowest point and the economy then began to pull out of it. The \u2018New Deal\u2019 introduced some minimal measures which were utilised by the trade unions. Yet it was a question of \u201cadvertised reforms\u201d and did not mean lasting significant gains for the mass of the working class.\nYet Obama is coming to power at the beginning of the onset of the recession.\nSignificantly, during his victory rally Obama appealed for all Americans- rich and poor, Republican and Democrat to stand together. Yet how is it possible to have \u2018class unity\u2019 between rich and poor just at the time the capitalists are trying to unload the burden of the crisis onto working people and their families. A \u2018rainbow\u2019 administration, including Republicans like Colin Powell is also being considered.\nMoreover, in international policy Obama has made clear that the disastrous military intervention in Afghanistan will be stepped up with the threat of further incursions into Pakistan. Democratic Congressmen are also demanding that Britain step up its intervention into Afghanistan. This will not prevent the inevitable defeat of US forces in such catastrophic foreign interventions.\nThis election opens a new era of struggle in the USA. One that will pose the need to build a new political party that will fight to defend working people and challenge capitalism. One that will offer a real socialist alternative to capitalism.\nobama us\t2008-11-06\nTagged with: obama us\nPrevious: Pakistani Women, religious extremism and traditions\nNext: Can China\u2019s rescue package avert recession?",

        "raw_content": "Kawhi Leonard now plans to return 'soon' and 'for sure' wants to stay in San Antonio\nYahoo Sports March 7, 2018, 10:04 PM GMT\nSan Antonio Spurs forward Kawhi Leonard (left) could be back this month. For good. (Getty Images)\nFor the first time since last playing on his injured quad and for the first time since reports of his growing rift with the San Antonio Spurs, Kawhi Leonard addressed the media, easing both concerns.\nThe two-time Defensive Player of the Year and First Team All-NBA selection told reporters in San Antonio that he expects to return \u201csoon\u201d from the right quadriceps tendinopathy that has kept him from all but nine games this season, and he would welcome finishing his career on the Spurs.\n#Spurs forward Kawhi Leonard finally talks for the first time this season. Talks about his future with the team, his relationship with Pop, and how he is handling his possible return this season. pic.twitter.com/zeFkimPCLr\n\u2014 John Elizondo (@johndelizondo) March 7, 2018\n\u201cI don\u2019t have a set date right now, but I\u2019ve just got to keep doing what I\u2019m doing,\u201d he said of a timetable for his return. \u201cThe progression that I\u2019m making has been great. \u2026 [The pain] is diminishing. It\u2019s hard to explain, but I\u2019m definitely better. I feel better, and I\u2019m feeling more comfortable.\u201d\nLeonard missed the first two months of the season with a quad injury that was initially expected to only keep him out of training camp and became more worrisome with each passing update. He returned in mid-December, never played two games in less than three days apart, and was again shut down indefinitely after a mid-January game against Denver \u2014 the last time he addressed the media.\nIn the meantime, ESPN reported that Leonard was \u201cdistant\u201d and \u201cdisconnected\u201d with the Spurs, rehabbing in New York amid \u201cdiscord\u201d with the organization over his prolonged recovery. Whispers of a rift grew louder as Leonard remained silent, and concerns were exacerbated when San Antonio coach Gregg Popovich said before a late-February game, \u201cI\u2019ll be surprised if he returns this season.\u201d\nWith Leonard eligible for a super-max contract extension this coming summer or free agency in 2019, that sent talking heads conjuring up all sorts of apocalyptic scenarios that had him playing anywhere but the only franchise he\u2019s ever own \u2014 the team with which he won a title and became a superstar.\nThen, less than a week after Popovich pondered whether it was realistic to expect his best player back with so few games left this season, Leonard resumed workouts with the Spurs, eyeing a March return.\nNow, almost two weeks after that, Leonard addressed the media.\n\u201cEverything was done as a group,\u201d he said of reports his rehab drove a wedge between him and the team. \u201cI don\u2019t feel like nothing was friction. I talked to Pop every day. He knows what the progressions were. He knew what I was doing the whole entire time, as well as the front office. We made a group decision, so it wasn\u2019t me just going out and saying, \u2018I am going to go out and do this thing.'\u201d\nAsked whether he wanted to end his career in San Antonio, Leonard added, \u201cYeah, for sure.\u201d\nThe Spurs treaded water for much of the season without Leonard, patching together a winning campaign as only Popovich could, but plans for a 21st straight playoff appearance and a 19th straight 50-win campaign have taken a serious hit during a recent stretch of eight losses in their last 11 games.\nA narrow victory against the lottery-bound Memphis Grizzlies marked San Antonio\u2019s second win in the last month, and in the process the Spurs have fallen just two losses up on the West\u2019s final playoff spot. They face one of the league\u2019s most difficult schedules down the stretch, starting with a three-game road trip against Golden State, Oklahoma City and Houston that starts on Thursday. According to ESPN, Leonard will not accompany the Spurs on that trip and may not return until late March.\nLet\u2019s just hope it\u2019s still worth Leonard returning at that point.\nMore from Yahoo Sports NBA:",

        "raw_content": "Whew, it was one heck of a summer wasn\u2019t it? Sometimes the months kinda sneak by, but never September. September always manages to become noticed: the cooling of the air, the changing of the colours in the grass and trees, and the falling of the leaves. Although PEI doesn\u2019t experience it quite as intensely as we do in the prairies, it\u2019s still there.\nAnd what a perfect moment to experience a physical change in my surroundings as we embark further on the journey inside.\nWe were lucky enough to spend almost the entire month of September in Prince Edward Island. In a way, it felt like cheating. We were supposedly embarking on this \u201cscary\u201d adventure when really we find so much comfort there. Surrounded by family and a few good friends, the days became easy and predictable.\nWe still had access to a shower every night, and a kitchen, and all the other fixin\u2019s of home. We know our way around, and where the good coffee is. Let me tell you, the value of this is appreciated more in the coming weeks.\nIt was easy to stay on top of my health game in September because we did have access to a kitchen and made it a point to eat healthy most of the time, especially sitting down to dinner. In the spirit of eating what\u2019s fresh and local we had a lot of fish and local produce. Matthew fell in love with turmeric baked haddock and greens for dinner, which I guess if you are going to fall in love with any dish is a great option!\nWe also went to the gym a couple of days a week. We were GoodLife members in Calgary so we continued to work out at the one on the island \u2013 it\u2019s really nice and it never really got that busy which we were absolutely pumped on. M usually made it there more often than me as there were a couple of times I had to opt out of a workout for work.\nYep \u2013 still working!\n\u201cBut aren\u2019t you on vacation?\u201d\nNot really; I\u2019m on an adventure. But going cold turkey and not working isn\u2019t right for me or Matthew for that matter. We are two people who enjoy work \u2013 as long as it\u2019s on our own terms. So since before we left Calgary I\u2019ve taken my Nutrition Coaching Business completely online, and I also work online as a freelance health writer.\nNothing could be better suited for a health-loving introvert than those two paths. Coaching people online about nutrition allows me to help people get healthy and strong with a coffee and a cute doggy by my side. Writing about health professionally helps me keep up to date on the most recent research and I get to help clients share their message with the world. I really want to tell you guys more about how I support myself on the road \u2013 maybe via YouTube video? Let me know if you\u2019re interested!\nThis may not be what you want to hear, but to be honest I still questioned my decisions up to the end of September. Hear me out here, because you might be able to relate to this. While in PEI, I found out my favourite YouTuber got pregnant. I know this sounds silly (trust me \u2013 I realize that now), but we already hold these people on a pedestal. Now one of those women who I believed already had everything suddenly had even more. Or at least that\u2019s where my mind went at the time. I had this sinking feeling in my stomach like she was moving forward \u2013 a jagged reminder that maybe I wasn\u2019t.\nIt made me look at myself for a moment and think I wasn\u2019t enough. I\u2019ll be 30 in a couple of months. Should I be settling down, get some health insurance and start having kids? Because I want all those things \u2013 I do.\nI had to have a pep talk with myself and realize that you can\u2019t force your life to be a certain way. I wasn\u2019t dealt those cards. It doesn\u2019t mean I never will be. But fate had something else destined for me\u2026 and to not embrace that would be such a waste.\nAlthough overwhelming at the time, I really do know better than to compare myself to strangers on the internet. We all have our own unique challenges \u2013 even the people we think have it all.\nIf you are challenged in where you are at in your journey right now \u2013 amen sister, I hear you. But let\u2019s trust that we are exactly where we need to be.\nSo that was September \u2013 stay tuned for October which will bring the trials and tribulations of living on the road (like seriously, wait until you hear this\u2026.) and all the good stuff too (lots of good exciting stuff). Let\u2019s just say: the story gets juicy!\nIf you just can\u2019t get enough come join me on Instagram!\nOne thought on \u201cSeptember Update: My Path is Uniquely Made for Me\u201d\nWhat an adventure Jen. You\u2019ve found joy in a simpler life. I will stay tuned \ud83d\ude00",

        "raw_content": "Ironing Service Prices \u2013 Could you be Saving Money by Hiring a Professional?\nLooking to hire a professional ironing service? Here are 5 things to look out for when hiring someone to iron for you!\nAre you among the many Brits who just dread ironing? A recent survey by Philip PerfectCare showcased that ironing was among the top five most hated chores for people in the UK.\nOn average, a person spends two hours every week ironing their clothes. That\u2019s about twenty minutes every day. If a household consists of two or more individuals, as well as children, the hours spent on this chore is likely to be even more. Regardless of how many people live in a household, or if the person ironing works or is a stay-at-home parent, taking out time to carry out a dull chore such as ironing is a tedious prospect for most. Although you might leave the task of ironing until absolutely necessary, there\u2019s no escaping it completely. So what do you do when you\u2019re desperate for freshly pressed clothes but you just can\u2019t bring yourself to pick up the iron? Hiring a professional ironing service is definitely the way to go.\nMost people think that hiring someone to iron for them will be expensive or complicated, but it\u2019s actually quite simple. If you follow the simple steps outlined below, you\u2019ll be able to hire a professional to iron for you and save money at the same time!\n5 Steps to Hiring Ironing Services\nCount The Cost: Calculate how much it\u2019s going to cost you to hire a professional. Most ironing services charge depending on the number of items that need to be ironed, by the hour, or both. For example, one service might charge you \u00a31.50 per shirt, or they might charge you \u00a310 per hour (for x amount of shirts). Some may even apply a certain hour limit per visit. Whatever it may be, you need to shop around to see who\u2019s offering you the best rates for the amount of ironing you need to get done.\nCalculate your cost: It\u2019s important to figure out how much your time is really worth. If you want to hire someone to do a job for you, you first have to figure out how much you have to pay them to replace your efforts. In order to do so, you can use this calculator to figure out your personal hourly rate. Once you know how much it costs you to iron throughout the week, you can use that amount as a budget for ironing services.\nGet Referrals: Ask your friends and family for any tried and tested ironing service providers. Just like housekeeping services, ironing services hired through referrals are likely to result in positive experiences. Your coworkers or friends can refer you to a reputable and reliable ironing service provider, saving you time and hassle to look for one. You can also learn valuable things from this experience and develop an appreciation about general charges.\nIndependent vs. Professional Cleaners: When shopping around for an ironing service, you are likely to come across independent workers and professional companies. The main difference between the two is not only in terms of price, but also the quality of their work. While independent cleaners are likely to be more expensive, professional ironing service providers are not only an economical choice, but they\u2019re also experienced and skilled.\nHow much ironing do you need? The last thing you need to figure out is how much ironing you really need to get done. If you\u2019re a working professional, you may only need to get your work clothes pressed. In that case, you can hire an ironing service for a limited amount of clothes. If you don\u2019t work and need someone to help you out with the ironing, make a list of the things you need to get pressed on a weekly basis and prioritise accordingly. This way you\u2019re likely to stay on budget and the service will be more cost-effective.\nHiring ironing services isn\u2019t for everyone, but if this dull chore is taking a significant toll on you then it might be one of those areas where it\u2019s worth spending a little extra money.",

And here it is again, March of the Volunteers, and there were literally hundreds of thousands of volunteers, some estimates say more than a million volunteers all told, working these games.\nCan anybody tell me what is wrong with Bob\u2019s statement?\nAnswer: Bob, China is a communist country. Every citizen is a \u201cvolunteer.\u201d Let me draw you a map, Bob: let\u2019s say you are a Chinese citizen. An armed Chinese soldier shows up at your front door and \u201casks\u201d you if you would like to be a volunteer at the olympic games. What do you say? \u201cNo, I am going to be busy.\u201d I guarantee that the soldier would then say, \u201cBusy with what? Planning your funeral?

U.S. stocks have managed to stay in the black on Wednesday, after surging over 1% Tuesday. Investors are focusing on signs of progress in U.S.-China trade talks, and the prospect that a U.S. government shutdown may be averted. Teva Pharmaceutical Industries (ticker: TEVA) and TripAdvisor (TRIP) fell after reporting disappointing earnings. In today\u2019s After the Bell, we\u2026\nlook into the impact of a smaller tax-refund check; examine the latest inflation data; and wonder what companies can get away with the rising wage pressure.\nA Smaller Check\nAll three major indexes ended with gains. The Dow Jones Industrial Average gained 117.51 points, or 0.46%, to end at 25,543.27. The S&P 500 rose 8.30 points, or 0.30%, to close at 2753.03, and the Nasdaq Composite gained 5.76 points, or 0.08%, to end at 7420.38.\nPresident Donald Trump said yesterday that he doesn\u2019t want another shutdown and will likely sign a deal with the Democrats to prevent that from happening. Chinese President Xi Jinping will reportedly meet the U.S. delegation in Beijing on Friday. If confirmed, that would be a sign of goodwill to move forward with the trade negotiations between the world\u2019s two biggest economies.\nEarly data from the Internal Revenue Service indicates that the average tax refund in 2019 is down 8% from the same period last year, as the tax code changes have resulted in the loss of some deductions and less withholding from the paychecks. There is also a 24% decline in the number of refunds processed to date, largely due to delay caused by the partial government shutdown in January.\nInvestors are worried that smaller refund checks could cut back consumer",

        "raw_content": "Understanding the concept of volunteering came to me very late in life. I initially hated how we had to do 40 hours of community service just to graduate high school. Now, in university, I find myself trying to give back in any way I can with time I can\u2019t find. At some point in our education, it hits us that there is more to this world than just our school or city or even our country.\nI\u2019m sure we all received this little blurb in our emails not long ago from the RSU:\nThe Orphan Sponsorship Program at Ryerson University is a unique initiative founded by the Ryerson Muslim Student\u2019s Association designed to unify, raise awareness and leave a positive impact for a humanitarian cause. Our charity partner is SOS Children\u2019s Villages Canada.\nOur campaign is called 30 for 30 (30 Days for 30 Orphans), and it stems from the legacy left behind by the previous year\u2019s Orphan Sponsorship Program campaign, which successfully raised over $70,000 campus-wide. We wish to continue the beautiful journey that they started and build upon what has already been achieved. The campaign will be 30 days in length starting on January 18th, 2016 and ending on February 16th, 2016.\nI had the pleasure to meet with Sayara, a second-year chemical engineering student and president of OSP 2016, and get down to some nitty-gritty of her team\u2019s work.\nSayara described OSP as an interactive way for students to come together for a good cause, make cool pledges to get tattoos, piercings, crazy hairdos, and wear colourful costumes if their pledges are matched.\nIt was only last year that t he team branched out of the Muslim Students Association and got all the Ryerson staff, unions, and faculties involved. By doing so, they exceeded their goal to raise $30,000 to over $70,000. This year, the bar is even higher. Ten thousand dollars higher \u2013 for a grand total of $80K. With 40 members, OSP 2016 has already reached the halfway point at over $41,915. The Pangea Charity Gala alone added a whopping $19K to the total. The campaign has until the 16th of February to meet their final goal.\nDuring these recent weeks, they have done everything from pie throwing launch parties to collaborating with other student groups, to getting Mayor John Tory and even Prime Minister Trudeau\u2019s attention.\nPrime Minister Justin Trudeau (centre) poses for a photo with people in the crowd as Toronto Mayor John Tory (right) looks on holds following a news conference in the rotunda at Toronto City Hall on Wednesday, January 13, 2016. THE CANADIAN PRESS/Chris Young\nI asked Sayara why one should donate to OSP over other charities, and with a very satisfying feeling, she answered: \u201cBecause it is student involved. The donations help students to keep doing what they do, now and later in their lives as change-makers. Students are getting experiences by working with different people for one unified cause. One goal keeps people intact. You\u2019re helping students develop and grow professionally at Ryerson by donating across the world.\u201d\nShe emphasized the need to help without comparing who is worthy of your donation over another. There are programs for Toronto needs just as there are ones to help internationally. Helping internationally does not mean you\u2019re ignoring Toronto. One can\u2019t ignore or compare one with the other. We empathize with people all around the world. We are global citizens before we are Canadians or Torontonians.\n\u201cWhat if the person you sponsor becomes someone amazing \u2013 it will give you a peace of mind to know you had a small hand to play in that. You\u2019re changing the lives of the sponsored child and the people around them.\u201d\nOSP\u2019s biggest accomplishment is that everyone is engaged, it\u2019s brought students from all faculties and cultures together for one cause.\nTo find out more, visit OSP\u2019s website via Ryerson MSA, and to support them, go to: https://www.giveffect.com/campaigns/1625-30-days-for-orphans.\nchangecharitycitizenfundraisingglobalorphan sponsorship programpersonal developmentryersonvolunteer\nPrevious Article15 Million Reasons to Apply for ScholarshipsNext ArticleStruggling Against the Binary of Alcoholism",

        "raw_content": "Logan Malik is trying to limit GWU's environmental impact (Image via Malik)\nGeorge Washington University\u2019s Logan Malik Will \u2018Save a Million\u2019\nMalik has launched an environmental campaign at George Washington University to \u2018Save a Million\u2019 pieces of paper.\nLogan Malik is a senior at George Washington University, majoring in chemistry with a double minor in chemistry and sustainability. Malik is also the Student Association Director of Sustainability at his university and launched a campaign in September to save one million pieces of paper by next summer.\nThe campaign, called \u201cSave a Million,\u201d calls for students to limit their university printing habits to only what\u2019s absolutely necessary and to always choose to print double-sided sheets, for a discounted price. The discounts specifically are what\u2019s been able to cut back paper usage on campus by a significant amount.\nMalik believes that the initiative would save about 60 percent of paper if students followed through with the printing restrictions.\nHe predicts that an increase of 20 percent in double-sided printing at WEPA (a cloud-based, pay-for-print management solution for student printing) printers would result in saving 600,000 pieces of paper, as compared to the fiscal year 2016 (George Washington\u2019s fiscal year runs from July 1 to June 30).\nSo even though his push to save a million pieces of paper would \u201cdefinitely be a push,\u201d Malik believes the target is feasible if he\u2019s able to promote the mission hard and far enough to his fellow college students.\nThe process of promoting the campaign has been divided into phases, with each phase including specifically planned steps. The first phase for Malik was primarily to raise awareness among students.\nHis advertising plans included: visiting classrooms, encouraging students to join the campaign, hanging posters made entirely with recycled paper, using SA email blasts to the staff and students, coordinating advertisements on university printers with Academic Technologies (a company that controls the university\u2019s contract with WEPA) and encouraging WEPA and recruiting SA senators to take up the cause.\nWEPA\u2019s reports on paper usage come out on a quarterly basis, which will help Malik keep track of the campaign\u2019s progress over time.\nA student using a WEPA station printer (Image via Oakland University)\nThe second phase of the \u201cSave a Million\u201d campaign was saved for later on in the semester and it shifted focus away from the student body of the university to that of faculty and staff who don\u2019t use WEPA printers.\nThe request to them would be the same: print double-sided pages and reduce the copies they print both for themselves and for their students.\nThe inspiration for \u201cSave a Million\u201d started with Malik\u2019s wish to change the pricing of printing on campus and to obtain a discount for double-sided printing when he was elected as an undergraduate-at-large senator.\nHe believed that proposing a new policy to decrease the cost of double-sided printing at campus-printer kiosks would provide an incentive for students to reduce the amount they used on a daily basis.\n\u201cI was initially inspired to change the pricing of printing as a senator because I did the research and saw the potential impact that a small change in pricing could make on the amount of waste that the George Washington community generates,\u201d he says.\nThe entire George Washington community used over 20,300,000 pages of paper in the fiscal year of 2012, which equals to over 2,000 trees, 1.6 million gallons of water and nearly one million kilowatts of energy \u2014 then in 2016, the student body alone used 3,200,000 pages of paper.\nMalik believes that individual campaigns to raise awareness of environmental issues are crucial for the development of sound environmental policies. \u201cA campaign like this is valuable because it encourages students to think about how their actions impact the environment and climate change,\u201d he says.\nHow the 2018 Olympics Could Change the World\n\u201cWhile small behavioral changes are not going to save our world from the effects of climate change, they can be a stepping stone to necessary systematic and institutional changes by engaging people in the problem and increasing awareness.\u201d\nEnvironmental sustainability and fighting climate change have always been a passion of Malik\u2019s, and he wants to be an advocate for change within George Washington to limit its negative impact on the environment.\nThe \u201cSave a Million\u201d campaign is a way for him to encourage students to engage with these issues of sustainability and show the community that \u201csustainability can, and should, be a priority for all people who are interested in public service both in college and beyond.\u201d\nAll those involved with the campaign, Malik included, know that while small behavioral changes help \u2014 like choosing to print double-sided on paper \u2014 they do not have the ability to save our world from the effects of climate change or environmental breakdown; however, they can be a stepping stone to necessary structural and institutional changes by engaging people in the problem and asking them to be a part of the solution.\nInspired by Her History, This Amherst Student Is Working to Eliminate Nuclear Weapons\nThe campaign will also allow Malik to make a measurable impact in the George Washington community. \u201cWhile I am passionate and motivated to address the institutional problems that have an impact on the environment, such as George Washington\u2019s investment in fossil fuels, I also think it is important to recognize that some things as trivial as double-sided printing can make a big difference,\u201d says Malik.\n\u201cIf we succeed in our campaign, we will save approximately 125 trees, 95,000 gallons of water and 56,000 kilowatts of energy. I do not view that as a small feat, and I think putting time and energy into working to do that is valuable.\u201d\nReaching a million pieces of paper saved is an ultimate goal of Malik\u2019s and the rest of those included in George Washington\u2019s Student Association, but it\u2019s not the number that they\u2019re focusing on.\nInstead, they want to pass on to their university\u2019s students and staff that there are a number of small things that can be done to improve their community\u2019s environmental footprint \u2013 small things that can add up to large contributions in the future if everyone works together.\nThe \u201cSave A Million\u201d campaign will continue until this June and anyone who wishes to join the team can sign the pledge here.\nHow Hurricane Harvey Helped Change the Minds of Climate Change Skeptics\nMallori Bjerke Advocating Travel, Equality and Determination\nAmanda Odasz, a SHAPE Activist, Is Fighting Sexual Assault in Greek Life\nInfuriated Haranguing Spoils Bill Nye\u2019s New Netflix Series\nWhy Climate Change Denial and Creationism Aren\u2019t \u2018Opinions\u2019\nThe 4 Steps to Becoming a Student Activist",

        "title": "Is University For Me? | Should I Go To University?",
        "raw_content": "Home > Advice > University > Is university for me?\nUniversity is by far the most popular next step for school and college leavers, and with so much attention focused on higher education, it can feel like it\u2019s the only route open to you.\nBut with more apprenticeships and school leaver programmes available than ever before, this simply isn\u2019t true. This makes \"is university for me?\" a vital question for any soon-to-be school leaver \u2013 and one that's worthy of serious thought.\n'Is university for me? It could be the most important question of your life so far'\nIf you\u2019ve always assumed that you\u2019d do your GCSEs, get your A-levels or highers, then go on to university, ask yourself this: is university for me?\nIf your answer is \"that\u2019s what everybody does\", \"because all my friends are going\" or \"it looks like fun\", you need to go back to the drawing board.\nGood reason #1: To get qualifications for your career\nOn the other hand, if it\u2019s because you need a degree to follow the career path you want to pursue, you\u2019re on the right track. Jobs such as teachers, lawyers and doctors generally require you to have a degree, so university is the logical choice for you.\nIf you haven\u2019t already, your next step should be to investigate what kind of degree you need to enter that profession \u2013 you can find out more by looking at our career zones.\nUniversity can also lead to higher-paid jobs. It\u2019s difficult to put a figure on it and there are lots of confusing numbers out there. What it usually boils down to is the difference between \"professional\" and \"non-professional\" jobs, where professional jobs usually require a degree. On average, professionals started on \u00a37,000 more, compared with non-professionals in the same area of work.\nGood reason #2: To pursue your interests through further study\nSome people go on to university because they're passionate about a certain subject and want to know everything there is to know about it. A love of learning is one of the best reasons to go to university. If this sounds like you, the answer to the question \"is university for me?\" is yes - you're going to love it!\nBut that doesn\u2019t mean you can\u2019t plan for your career as well.\nThink about what jobs your chosen subject can lead to, and what you want to do with your life when you leave education (after all, most of us are only at university for a few years). Find other ways to give yourself a career boost through volunteering, doing a summer internship, or another kind of work experience placement.\nWhere are you trying to get to?\nIf you\u2019re drifting towards university because it\u2019s what everybody else is doing, it\u2019s time to stop and ask yourself where you\u2019re trying to get to.\nDon\u2019t forget that by going to university, you\u2019ll be taking on a lot of debt from the loans you take out to pay for your tuition fees and living costs. Most universities charge about \u00a39,000 per year in fees so over a three-year course you\u2019ll tot up a bill in the region of \u00a327,000 for your course alone.\nYou\u2019ll also be committing yourself to a further three years of study, so you should certainly think twice if you\u2019ve struggled with your revision or put off your coursework till the night before the deadline.\nAnd let\u2019s not forget there\u2019s no guarantee of a job at the end of your course. This is particularly true if you haven\u2019t given any thought to your career when choosing your degree subject.\nIf there\u2019s no clear path from university to employment and you\u2019re not of a naturally academic bent, there might be better options for you.\nIt\u2019s impossible to make these big decisions if you don\u2019t know where you want to get to in the first stage of your working life. Don\u2019t panic if you\u2019re feeling directionless \u2013 use the resources on our site to help you make your career plans before you decide on your next steps:\nRead our post on planning your career to decide what matches your interests and skills.\nUse our career zones to learn more about the areas of work you\u2019re interested in.\nWhen you know where you\u2019re going, you\u2019ll be able to find out whether you need a university degree to get there, whether university is one of a number of routes, or whether an apprenticeship or training programme might be a better way into the job or area of work you want to pursue.\nSo what other options are there?\nHigher or degree apprenticeships can be a better choice than university for many young people. They offer on-the-job training in over 75 highly skilled job roles.\nYou\u2019ll come out with qualifications equivalent to a foundation degree or higher, and some degree apprenticeships even let you study for a master\u2019s. This means there\u2019s often an element of study and you might spend some of your time at university. But you\u2019ll always be learning about the theory behind your job, whereas many traditional university courses tend to be quite abstract.\nThere\u2019s much more choice than you might assume from the traditional notion of an apprenticeship as a way into a skilled trade like plumbing or carpentry. A higher apprenticeship could take you into engineering, marketing (the creative side of selling stuff), accountancy (balancing the finances for different firms) or even laboratory science (cool hands-on research stuff).\nTraining programmes are similar to apprenticeships (and sometimes they\u2019re just apprenticeships in another guise) but they tend to be tailor-made by big companies like finance firms looking to train up new recruits. Instead of studying for a degree, you\u2019ll often get professional qualifications directly related to the area of work, but sometimes you\u2019ll get the chance to do a degree through your employer as well (often after you\u2019ve done your initial qualifications).\nIf this sounds like a good route for you, learn more about the different paid training options open to school leavers or check out apprenticeships and training programmes you can apply for through our site.\nThis infographic outlines the different options and paints a picture of students\u2019 views on them:\nSo if you\u2019ve started asking yourself the question \"is university for me?\", the answer may very well be yes \u2013 but there might just be better options out there.\nIn summary, here\u2019s a checklist of questions you should work through to help you make your decision.\nWill a degree help me get there?\nDo I need to take on student debt?\nDo I want to study for another three years?\nWhat are the pros and cons of the different options open to me?\nThere are plenty of other pros and cons of going to university. In this video, students talks about the reasons for and against going to university based on their own experiences, circumstances and career plans:\nWe hope this article has helped you move closer answering the question \"is university for me?\" For more guidance, check out our post on alternatives to university.\nLead image from Flickr, Infographic by Jazzy Media\nTags: should i go to university is university for me",

        "raw_content": "Trump Falsely Blames Decision To Cancel London Visit On Obama\nPresident Donald Trump confirmed on Thursday night that he nixed a February trip to the United Kingdom, and blamed the cancellation on former President Barack Obama and a decision to move the United States\u2019 London embassy.\nHowever, the Obama administration did not make that decision \u2014 it was announced in 2008 when President George W. Bush was still in office.\nThe Bush administration said at the time that it decided to build a new embassy rather than renovate the existing one because it was the best way to achieve the \u201cgoal of a modern, secure and environmentally sustainable embassy.\u201d\nTrump was invited to London to celebrate the opening of the new embassy. His objections to its location, however, are likely a convenient excuse for him to skip a United Kingdom trip. The visit has been up in the air for about a year, as Trump was concerned about his potential reception there. Trump likely would have been met with protests.\nLondon Mayor Sadiq Khan, who Trump has insulted in the past, said Friday that Trump \u201cgot the message\u201d that Londoners didn\u2019t want him to visit.\n\u201cIt appears that President Trump got the message from the many Londoners who love and admire America and Americans but find his policies and actions the polar opposite of our city\u2019s values of inclusion, diversity and tolerance,\u201d Khan said. \u201cHis visit next month would without doubt have been met by mass peaceful protests. This just reinforces what a mistake it was for Theresa May to rush and extend an invitation of a state visit in the first place.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Piriformis syndrome: a muscle irritates sciatic nerve; causes pain deep in buttocks and often down the leg.\nThe piriformis is a muscle in the buttocks that stabilizies the sacroiliac joint. Piriformis syndrome is a neuromuscular disorder in which the piriformis irritates the sciatic nerve, causing pain in the buttocks. The piriformis overlaps the sciatic nerve, so pain often goes all the way down the leg, which can cause piriformis syndrome to be mistaken for sciatica. With piriformis syndrome, patients usually report pain deep in the buttocks. This pain is made worse by climbing stairs, performing squats, or sitting.\nThere are several possible causes of piriformis syndrome, including trauma, overload, and if the piriformis strains and overstresses the sciatic nerve. Sports and exercise like racing and cycling that use forward movements and posture can lead to piriformis syndrome, but so can sitting for long periods of time.\nWhen the piriformis muscle tightens, it causes extra tension between the tendon and hip bone, causing discomfort or pain for the patient in the area of the hip bone. Pain, numbness and tingling in the buttocks may also be felt by the patient, worsening when he or she is sitting, running or stretching. Sciatic neuralgia, or pain spreading from the buttocks down the leg, may also occur due to the piriformis muscle putting stress on the sciatic nerve.\nDiagnosis of piriformis syndrome is not easy because many of the symptoms of piriformis syndrome are also associated with other disorders. The physician will go over the patient's medical history, following with a physical exam. During the exam, the physician may reproduce sciatic muscle pain with the help of external rotation of the piriformis muscles in a procedure called the Pace Test. The physician may also use the Freiberg Test, which reproduces the pain with the help of forced internal rotation of the extended thigh. An X-ray, MRI, or Magnetic Resonance Neurography can help to confirm the diagnosis.\nTreatment for piriformis syndrome starts with relaxing the piriformis muscle as much as possible. All the activities that cause or aggravate this disorder should be avoided. Other non-medical treatments include exercise, change in posture, and massage. Ice over the affected area for fifteen to twenty minutes at a time will be helpful in relieving pain. This should be done several times a day. Stretching of the hip muscles is not advised until the acute pain is gone.\nThe physician may prescribe anti-inflammatory drugs or natural treatments like proteolytic enzymes, such as bromelain. These enzymes are both natural and extremely beneficial with no side effects.",

        "raw_content": "For many loyal electronic cigarette smokers it probably doesn\u2019t come as surprise to find out that e-cigs continue to grow in popularity at a very rapid pace all over the world. This massive growth in demand can probably attributed to many things but I think there are a few key factors that are driving it. The first is the flexibility and ease of use, you see with traditional cigarettes you\u2019re limited by you\u2019re surroundings such as public locations or maybe the allergies of a friend or family member. Since electronic cigarettes don\u2019t involve any tobacco smoke you\u2019re free to smoke them anywhere and without disturbing other people.\nAnother key factor is cost, the normal cigarettes that you buy at a gas station or big box store are subject to all sorts of local, state, and federal taxes as well as the classic supply and demand. There have been a few studies comparing the costs of your run of the mill cigarette and the new electric cigarettes and each and every time the electronic cigarettes come out ahead in terms of both initial and ongoing costs. While the lack of smoke and lower prices are certainly key driving forces, I think the biggest one is often the most overlooked one, and that is celebrity endorsement.\nI would be lying if I said that I didn\u2019t occasionally look at all the gossip rags while waiting in the grocery checkout lane but there have been multiple instances where I couldn\u2019t help but notice that electronic cigarettes and celebrities were being featured side by side. It\u2019s kind of sad but its been proven time and time again, when people see a celebrity doing or wearing something they see it as a social indicator that they should do it as well and before you know it a new trend is born.

        "raw_content": "Nobody Does it Like Sara Lee\u2014Maybe Not Even Her\nIf you\u2019ve ever listened to music at any point in your life, chances are you\u2019ve had your share of \u201cWait, what did he just say?\u201d and \u201cIt sounded like \u2018cheese on the Chick-Fil-A,\u2019 but that can\u2019t be right\u201d moments. I\u2019d make a Bob Dylan joke here to really drive the point home, but it just seems too easy.\nWell, that, and we\u2019re watching American Idol right now, and I\u2019m too distracted to think of something clever.\nI\u2019m certainly not the exception to this rule; in fact, I think I get confused easier than most. It\u2019s not surprising, really. My parents\u2019 anniversary and my birthday are on the same date\u2014eight years apart, for the record\u2014and I just assumed everyone\u2019s family was like this. Until I was 12.\nThere are two instances in particular that I remember. The first happened when I was in seventh or eighth grade and fresh off having seen Mrs. Doubtfire. For reasons that escape me, I was walking around my school singing \u201cDo it like a lady\u201d\u2014what I thought Aerosmith was saying in \u201cDude (Looks Like a Lady).\u201d\nOne of our gym teachers overheard me and asked \u201cWhat\u2019s that supposed to mean?\u201d I was like \u201cI don\u2019t know. Maybe you should ask Steven Tyler.\u201d\nInterestingly, according to Wikipedia\u2014which I was recently told is more accurate than Encyclopedia Britannica shortly before I wept for the fate of humanity\u2014a lot of people apparently think it\u2019s \u201cMove it like a lady.\u201d I still think mine makes far more sense, but I will concede that being included in Mrs. Doubtfire should have tipped me off as to the correct lyrics and prevented me from insulting Ms. Mumm.\nMy second memorable faux pas involved \u201cLivin\u2019 on a Prayer,\u201d when I mentioned something about \u201cmaking our swear\u201d to a friend. She laughed and took great pleasure in informing me it\u2019s actually \u201cmake it, I swear.\u201d I retold this story to Jenny just the other day, and she said what I thought it was doesn\u2019t even make sense.\nSure, not grammatically\u2014but artistically, it\u2019s a home run. \u201cSwear\u201d as a synonym for \u201coath\u201d or \u201cpact\u201d? C\u2019mon. If I had been there with Bon Jovi in 1986, they might have gone somewhere.\nBut oddly enough, the most intriguing example illustrating this highly (cough) engaging phenomenon has nothing to do with an actual song but rather a jingle for baked goods.\nRemember the old Sara Lee commercials? What were they saying: \u201cNobody does it like Sara Lee\u201d or \u201cNobody doesn\u2019t like Sara Lee\u201d? Despite the double negative, or perhaps because of it, I always leaned toward number two.\nA little while back, though, my sister-in-law Susan and I debated this very point, and both she and Jenny insisted it was \u201cNobody does it like Sara Lee.\u201d I fought it at first, but they convinced me, so much so that when I came up with the idea for this post\u2014a true moment of inspiration\u2014I thought it would just fit neatly with my Aerosmith and Bon Jovi goofs.\nHowever, just to be safe, I went to look up the slogan before I started writing, and I discovered something: I was right all along. Maybe.\nSee, Wikipedia and a whole host of its supremely reliable friends claim the double negative version is right but that it got misquoted as \u201cNobody does it like Sara Lee.\u201d Then there\u2019s this highly entertaining message board thread from 2002 that wastes hardly any time before putting forth a conspiracy theory about the whole thing, suggesting that Jenny, Susan, and I may all be right and proving beyond a shadow of a doubt that the Internet, in a number of ways, is just terrible.\nWe should all be able to agree on one thing, though: The old phrase, whatever it was, was a lot better than the current \u201cThe joy of eating.\u201d\nYou\u2019re not pulling a Mel Gibson/Julia Roberts blockbuster out of that.\nI know the newest members of the D.R.O.P. list are with me. Speaking of brilliant segues, they are:\n1) Joey (my soon-to-be brother-in-law and fellow occasional Bostonian)\n2) Evelyn (my aunt, who is really Jenny\u2019s aunt, making her my aunt-in-law, but that\u2019s even weirder than saying \u201ccousin-in-law\u201d)\n3) Chris (one of my college roommates and a co-host of \u201cThe Boneyard,\u201d the greatest sports talk show in the history of Internet student radio)\nAlright. That\u2019s all I got. I\u2019d try to wrap everything up, but I really want to go to bed. I think you know where I\u2019m coming from anyway.\nHow scary for you.\nWritten by Ted Fox Posted in Uncategorized\nFebruary 18, 2010 - 5:25 pm Evelyn\nOkay, this whole Sara Lee thing can be resolved if everyone would just remember the ENTIRE jingle: \"Everybody doesn't like something, but nobody doesn't like Sara Lee\". When you consider the first part of the jingle, the second part, as you've stated, makes complete sense. You are right. Definitely. (Sorry, Jenny. I'm with Ted 100% on this one.)\nFebruary 18, 2010 - 5:30 pm Ted\nBoy, am I glad you're reading this blog. \ud83d\ude42\nFebruary 18, 2010 - 6:27 pm RRager\nFirst, of course my sister is right, andputting the phrase in context definitivelyends that debate. But she fails to mentionthat she's know for interpreting CreedenceClearwater Revival's Bad Moon Rising lyricsas \"there's a bathroom on the right\" (there's a bad moon on the rise).And as long as we're talking about lyrics\u2026What the hell was Phil Collins thinking with\"sussudio\"?\n\"And as long as we're talking about lyrics\u2026What the hell was Phil Collins thinking with 'sussudio'?\"Best comment in the history of the Dining Room Office.\nI appreciate the praise of \"Best comment in the history of the Dining Room Office.\"But it will mean more when \"history\"encompasses more that two weeks.\nFebruary 19, 2010 - 12:41 am Evelyn\nLet's just clarify: I understood CCR just perfectly. I was relating someone else's misheard lyrics, from a book I had about misheard lyrics, which I believe my brother borrowed and never returned. JK! Seriously, I loaned the book to someone and never got it back. But it contained some real gems: \"Excuse me while I kiss this guy\", \"Secret Asian Man\", \"Hold me closer, Tony Danza\", and on and on. Gotta find that book again!\nAnd how could I forget, also from Elton John's Tiny Dancer, \"Count the head lice on the highway\".\nAny lyric involving Tony Danza automatically goes to the top of my list. And, since I am married to Jenny, I also know that bit of misheard wisdom had a great cameo on \"Friends.\"\nThe D.R.O.P. List\nThe Real Reason to be Scared of the Dark",

I was concerned about staff behavior that was counter to maintaining good and complementary relationships. I wanted a policy that I could use which would result in a period of discipline in order to improve that staff's behavior over a short period of time, and bring them back to compliance, or else result in termination. While California is an at-will employment state, I felt it was more in line with my desires to have a clear warning about behaviors. I felt it would be more \"caring.\"\nHowever, in talking with my corporate counsel, he asked me if I had such a policy, could I guarantee that it would be implemented in every situation that warranted it. I had to answer that I could guarantee no such thing. He gave me a principle then; \"A policy that is not followed is worse, legally, than not having a policy.\" OK, I made up the quote, but it has served me well, in terms of making policies that I could not follow easily, or that would cause more problems than they solved. But, I still am left with a feeling of dissatisfaction. I sincerely thought my policy would have helped to make the workplace better. I realize that I was going about it the wrong way.\nMy question here is, how would you answer this conundrum from the perspective of policies and waivers? My principle may be relevant in regards to relationships, but I also know that we still must have policies.\nMore in this category: \u00ab Considerations for Policies as a Standard of Care Rituals of Missionary Consent to Risk \u00bb",

        "raw_content": "April 10, 2018 theastoundinganalogcompanion Uncategorized 2 comments\nby Mary Turzillo\nIf you are like me, every so often a book really ticks you off. So it was with Barry Schwartz\u2019s The Paradox of Choice, a book I read in its entirety in the Harvard Bookstore in about two hours. My annoyance at the premise of this book simmered, and finally, after a more careful rereading of the book, I had to write a short story as a kind of reductio ad absurdum. Thus came \u201cHobson\u2019s Choice,\u201d in the Jan/Feb 2018Analog. [Her newest story, \u201cCar Talk\u201d is in the March/April issue on sale now.]\nSchwartz\u2019s thesis was that people are happiest when they aren\u2019t presented with a lot of choices. He starts with an anecdote about trying to buy a pair of jeans, and discovering that he had too many choices as to fit. Too many choices! This for some reason drove him crazy. Why not just have a few sizes of jeans? That way he wouldn\u2019t have to THINK, a process that he posits always leads to unhappiness. My thought: of course he might always have to wear a pair of jeans that were too tight in the crotch, or that dragged on the ground because they were a half inch too long, or that made him look fat (I suspect he doesn\u2019t care about that, but then, he\u2019s a guy).\nThen he gives us the research. Amazingly enough, people are perfectly happy with a limited choice of neckties rather than a larger array (male people, you might note). NECKTIES? Excuse me? This is supposed to be the paradigm for our life choices?\nSchwartz is horrified that the public is forced to choose among over a hundred brands of shampoo. Gracious! I wonder if he considers that each of the many brands are produced by some entrepreneur who actually thinks they have a role to play in safely getting hair clean, and that these people deserve an opportunity to offer their wares.\nEven when it comes to health care decisions, he says we\u2019re better off leaving it to Big Brother (AKA the Medico-Industrial-Insurance Complex). Wait! Are you kidding? I am DEFINITELY going on http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/ to discover everything I can about my loved one\u2019s cancer treatment. I don\u2019t want nasty surprises because we left it all to Big Brother, who thought I wouldn\u2019t care about little details like, I don\u2019t know, sexual malfunction? Hideous scars that needn\u2019t be there? Diabetes? Possible brain damage?\nHe categorizes people into Maximizers (bad, stupid people) and Satificers (good, smart people). The former spend way too much time trying to get things right, he says, when they should be enjoying life by letting other people make decisions for them. Satisficers are good because they just grab the first bottle of wine off the shelf, and if it tastes like pancake syrup or bleach, it will still make them happy and probably won\u2019t even make them sick, because they\u2019ll have all that free time to\u2014what?\nI am a self-confessed Maximizer. It took me three years to find the house I am presently living in, and I love this house: its layout, the sturdiness of its basic construction, and the fact that it looks out onto a beautiful park. I might have been satisfied if I were in a hurry with that house that needed \u201conly\u201d about twenty grand of repairs, or the one with the strange floorplan that required crossing a sunken living room to get from the master bedroom to the bathroom, or the one with the huge mural of a mermaid (with horns) in the living room.\nI searched for two years to buy my present car, a Prius that I would cheerfully adopt and leave my estate to in my will, except that legally you can\u2019t adopt cars, and I\u2019m leaving my estate to my husband. In an afterward, Schwartz admonishes that instead of spending all that time deciding on a car, I should have been schmoozing with my best friend. Well, the \u201cbest friend\u201d (my husband Geoff) was with me on several of my test drives, and in fact gave me the straight dope on his own Prius. Is that not bonding? We actually enjoyed this process. Anyway, if an inferior safety system in a car chosen more or less at random causes my death, I won\u2019t be doing much best-friend bonding, will I?\nCan you guess? It turns out that Good Enough was not in fact Good Enough.\nAs to his prediction that I will be disappointed in the car two months later, I am not. A year and a half later, I sometimes sit in it listening to Queen\u2019s \u201cI\u2019m in Love with my Car\u201d on fabulous audio system because I chose carefully.\nAnd that, of course, brings me to the whole life-time mate thing. Everybody told me that I would never find the perfect husband, so frankly, my first husband was NOT perfect, at least for me. But time was ticking and he was Good Enough.\nCan you guess? It turns out that Good Enough was not in fact Good Enough. Upon more careful examination, he had several features I did not like, which I will not go into in detail, because although he is now dead, his subsequent widow and children live on and might read this. (I was probably not Good Enough for him, either.) I had standards, and if I\u2019d ignored the ticking of the clock (I was, geez, all of twenty three) and if I had looked for the Perfect Mate, I might have found him. As it happens, I did, although it seems to have taken me a few years. (Geoff, if you\u2019re reading this, this means you.)\nIn Schwartz\u2019s acknowledgements, he confesses to going through multiple drafts of his opus. But doesn\u2019t that sound like a Maximizer? Shouldn\u2019t he have been satisfied with just one-through?\nSchwartz also mentions his wife (or at least somebody with his same last name) in his acknowledgments. I don\u2019t know anything about either of their personal lives, but I have to wonder if he\u2019s just ticked off that it takes her more than fifteen minutes to find a pair of shoes that fit, while he taps his fingers waiting for her in the mall. Maybe that was the impetus for this book.\nApparently Schwartz thinks that research, shopping, and investigating options are all irksome. He probably has some alternative activities (watching TV? complaining about Other People\u2019s lives?) that are more pleasant for him. But some of us Maximizers actually enjoy comparison shopping and calculating future benefits. To each his own.\nHere\u2019s the bottom line: Schwartz is bringing up the old old question: would you rather be free or would you rather be happy? And frankly, although it\u2019s more work, I think you can be both.\nMary Turzillo\u2019s latest novel is Mars Girls, Apex 2017, an adaptation of An Old-Fashioned Martian Girl, which appeared in Analog.

        "raw_content": "posted by Morgan Huelsman - Aug 1, 2018\nThomas Rhett is currently playing stadiums across the country with the \"Trip Around The Sun\" Tour opening for Kenny Chesney. His latest autobiographical single \"Life Changes\" is making it's way up the country charts.\nRhett stopped by the Bobby Bones Show to share details about touring with Kenny Chesney with his family by his side as well as talk about his recent collaborations and hangs with pop artists.\nRhett shared that he is currently rocking a \"dad beard.\" He and his wife Lauren made it point to bring their whole family on the road for the tour. Rhett shared that at first they tried to put the kids to bed before the shows, but they love standing side stage while dad performs, saying \"It's a constant trying to get Willa Gray not to run out on stage and grab my leg.\" Going even further to say that she really enjoys being in the spotlight.\nWilla Gray is still a fairly new sister and Rhett notes that it took her about a month to adjust to being a big sister to Ada James, \"She's grown into that big sister role pretty hard. Willia always wants to be in the room when we're putting Ada to bed.\" He even said that it's always complete chaos when they're all together, but as his song goes... \"I wouldn't change it for the world.\"\nHis song \"Life Changes\" didn't start out as an autobiographical song. When they were writing in the studio, one of the songwriters noted that Rhett's life had changed dramatically in the last couple of years. After getting the music, one line at a time started turning into a story about his life, from the time he was 19 years old until now.\nSomething that always happens to the family is people messing up their names. From interviews to fans, people sometimes aren't sure the real names. For the record, Thomas Rhett Akins Jr. is his full name with his wife Lauren and their kids Willa Gray and Ada James.\nRhett talked about a recent songwriting collaboration with Charlie Puth. He also noted that he really likes pop singer Niall Horan. He not only went to Niall's Nashville show but also worked out at the gym with him and went golfing alongside him and Charles Kelley of Lady Antebellum. Rhett says his favorite artist and \"dream friend\" though is Bruno Mars. \"Me and Bruno are best friends, but he just doesn't know it yet.\" Rhett has met Bruno once but hopes to have more run-ins in the future.\nThe next single for Thomas Rhett is called \"Sixteen.\" The song is about a progression of life over time from 16, 18, 21 to the current day in one's life. Rhett said, \"I have written more songs than I know what to do with. It's amazing how much you haven't talked about.\" Rhett along with his four producers plan to finish the entire record in December 2018/January 2019 with new music coming early 2019.\nWatch the full interview with Thomas Rhett on The Bobby Bones Show below!",

        "title": "EASTER LAMB vs THE EASTER BUNNY | Jane Catherine Rozek",
        "raw_content": "I love this picture. A perfect little lamb is the fitting symbol for the rebirth of spring. When a lamb is born, it is such a symbol of innocence and purity. And so it must have seemed to the prophet, John the Baptist, when he first saw the stranger named Jesus Christ approaching him to be baptized in the Jordan River. \u201cLook, the Lamb of God\u201d (John 1:35), he exclaimed.\nWhen Jesus died on the cross, they called him the Passover Lamb. According to the Jewish calendar he died on the very same day the Israelites had always slaughtered the best lamb from their herds to prepare for the yearly Passover celebration meal. This commemorated the night they had been instructed to sprinkle the lamb\u2019s blood on their doorposts to protect them from a death plague and to escape their oppression of slavery in Egypt.\nDid some of the Jewish crowd at the crucifixion see this similarity to the ancient practice when they saw his blood running down the cross? Both lambs, in the Old Testament and in the new, had to be unblemished. Jesus was said to be perfect because he didn\u2019t transgress any of the Great Ones\u2019 laws. He represented the highest of humankind.\nGod from the heavens, backed by a consortium of angels and other powers, sent his only son down to our planet to rescue us from an evil world. From a celestial viewpoint, wouldn\u2019t Jesus\u2019 crucifixion by humans seem like a precious lamb had been sacrificed? Jesus took on this role himself.\nHe gathered his friends for a last supper to reenact the Passover ceremony of sacrificing the lamb, but now with symbolic bread and wine. Jesus asked the disciples to eat the bread he gave them, and he called it his own flesh. Then he passed around the wine and told them to drink as though it were his own blood. What morbid requests to make to your friends! He said to them: \u201cThis is my body given for you; do this in remembrance of me.\u201d And he took wine and said, \u201cDrink from it, all of you. This is my blood of the new covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins.\u201d (Excerpts from The Celestial Proposal, Chapter 7, \u201cLevels in the Life Game,\u201d page 77-78)\nYes, what a morbid thing to ask your friends to do! Yet, this same ceremony is prevalent in Christian congregations around the world and is called Holy Communion. But now you know the intrinsic meaning of it. So if you go to a church for Easter Sunday and take the bread and wine with a prayer, you are consuming the metaphysical living presence of an alien Jesus! You are feasting upon him, nourishing your bodies, as was the ancient custom with the actual lamb.\nBut that\u2019s all history in the past you say? Revelation, the last book in the Bible, also speaks about a Lamb of God in a vision of prophecy. The disciple John \u201csaw a Lamb, looking as if it had been slain\u201d but who had the authority to open the way for a utopian kingdom on earth. In John\u2019s vision he heard these words being spoken to the Lamb:\n\u201cYou are worthy to take the scroll and to open its seals, because you were slain and with your blood you purchased men for God from every tribe and language and peoples and nation.\u201d (Revelation 5:9)\nNow all this makes awesome sense if you believe God, Jesus Christ, elders around the throne, and hordes of angels are actually the \u201cGreat Ones\u201d from somewhere in outer space! Heavenly omnipotent immortal beings trying to mentor us and to save us from self-destruction. An otherworldly Jesus, half man/half God, whose perfection could pay a ransom for us to be free from guilt in this world. Then his miraculous Easter resurrection shows us that even death can be defeated. All this vast drama happens over the timeline of humanity, the symbolism playing across multi-generations. This celestial perspective is why people sing the song, \u201cWorthy is the Lamb.\u201d\nDoesn\u2019t this grandiose panorama make the simple idea of an Easter Bunny just sound kind of ridiculous? The link below to a youth who sings out his own beliefs, captures the awe of it all!\n\u00ab WHAT IS IT THAT YOU DESIRE MOST?\nEXPECTATION CREATES REALITY \u00bb",

        "raw_content": "TALMA release new and second EP, Out to Sea, on Friday 23rd February and the five piece, taking inspiration from the likes of Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds and Radiohead, have certainly produced a record that showcases their intricate sound.\nThey took some time out to speak with The Fountain about working with Jason Wilson and their plans for 2018 now that their release is imminent.\nVery much so! This project was finished in August of last year so the actual release date of the whole release has felt a long time coming. As always with a project like this, there are a million and one things that need to be worked on to get the release ready to go \u2013 with all that now in place, we are absolutely delighted and can\u2019t wait to get it out there. In addition, what adds to the excitement and something that is really satisfying for us is that we have already released two singles from the EP which have been well received by press and fans alike. We feel in a good position and can\u2019t wait for people to hear the whole thing.\nWe\u2019re definitely looking to really max out on this momentum, with more shows and supports coming through the works and gearing up for festival season. Still a lot to be done though! We\u2019ll hit you back with more details soon!\nTF: Now I see you have a gig lined up for London, do you reckon we will see you north of the border?\nWe definitely intend to be sometime soon! Jack our lead guitar player is from Glasgow so it would be rude not to. We\u2019re starting to work with a great promoter who are looking to take us out of London to other places round the UK. We\u2019ve played a lot across the south from Reading to Exeter where we met while studying, so we\u2019ve barely scratched the surface and are excited to get our touring game on.\nTF: And what was it like to be working with Jason Wilson?\nIt was a great experience for us to work with Jason. As a band, we have always been DIY to this point \u2013 which is fine and really useful to be honest as it encouraged us to trial and error what we were working on and build up the sound we wanted as band. Regardless, there is no substitute for experience or professionalism and he delivered both of those facets for us, he pushed us really hard but it was so worth it, as we are delighted with the end result.\nFor me, the favourite gig we have played was G-Live in Guildford in late 2016. Nerve-wracking for a first gig in front of over 1000 people, but was such a buzz and a great experience for us. Moreover, we were supporting Spike Edney from Queen\u2019s All Star Band. Quite an early on gig for us as TALMA, but the exposure we got to a big audience and some amazing musicians was invaluable.\nTo watch, it has to be Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds at the O2 in September of last year. It is probably the closest I have come to a religious experience.\nOut to Sea is out via Lost in the Manor Records on February 23rd.\nPreviousReview: The Shape of Water\nNextReview: Isle of Dogs, Glasgow Film Fest 2018\nGordon McIntyre: Ballboy, John Peel and Home for the Holidays\nReview: Grawl!x \u2013 Appendix\nRonnie Baker Brooks: I just love a creative atmosphere",

Born out of a separation with the confederate state of Virginia during the Civil War, the state remains, like so much of our nation, still impacted by that war, the disgusting practice of slavery that caused it, and our lingering divisions of race. Why, after all of this time, racism is still such a prevalent issue with humanity is sadly not a mystery. We're a bunch of frightened and insecure creatures, and many of us react by trying to build ourselves up while pushing others down. It's excruciatingly painful and heartbreaking. We're better than that. And so, even though we've sent robots to other planets, can access boundless information from a device in our pockets, and have honey roasted peanut butter, we still need to collectively fight against the ignorance and evils that are the root of racism.\nJoining some of the impossibly kind and friendly residents of the Charleston area, we helped the local YWCA put on their 2nd annual Race to End Racism. Designed to bring community members together, raise awareness, and raise much needed funds in a festive environment, all while participating in healthy activities, the Race to End Racism doubled in size from the previous year. Hundreds of runners, walkers, and volunteers share a morning during this important event which helps open dialogue about racism and highlights the Charleston YWCA and all that it does for the community.\nThe issue of racism is complicated, and it won't be solved easily. But we, as humans, are capable of destroying this disturbing scourge of our existence. Events like this help. They're a part of the solution. But everyone needs to be involved in eliminating racism. There's no sitting this one out or looking the other way. You don't have to run a 5K, but you do have to participate in making a change.\nNeed help getting started? Click here for some tools and links provided by our friends at the Charleston YWCA.\nSimply put, racism sucks. Racists suck. Don't suck.\nBe a better version of yourself by recognize your biases. If you're white, realize that you have privileges. Nobody is trying to take those away. Rather, minorities are simply needing to stop being denied those same privileges.\nNo matter who you are, make a better version of us all by helping lift others up.\nAll former Hoosiers.\nVolunteer, West VirginiaJohn-Michael Elmore May 4, 2018 Magic IslandRacism, Race to end racism, Charleston, West Virginia, Volunteer, YWCAComment",

        "raw_content": "Borderline personality disorder often goes undiagnosed, but it can have profound consequences. Receiving a diagnosis of BPD can seem daunting, but there are many therapeutic approaches that can help.\nSome people are more prone to emotional instability than other. They might feel alright one moment but change to become sad, angry, lonely, afraid, jealous, or fearful moments later. Depending on the doze, emotional instability is part of the normal cycle of life and is not necessarily a psychological disorder.\nWhile emotional instability is part of the diagnostic criteria for emotionally unstable (borderline) personality disorder (BPD), there are other criteria that need to be met for a full diagnosis to be made. To meet the diagnosis for BPD, emotional instability or frequent emotional changes must be accompanied by episodes of idealization or devaluation and deficits or instabilities in interpersonal relationships, behaviour, self-image and identity. Idealization and devaluation refer to the black and white thinking that people, objects or situations are either good or bad but nothing in between.\nIndividuals with BPD are also impulsive, self-harming, suicidal, and extremely sensitive to and fearful of rejection. They also tend to have less positive emotions towards others. They go though phases of chronic feelings of emptiness, where they feel they have no worth.\nThe official criteria for a BDP diagnosis require that 5 or more of the following to be present:\nA pattern of unstable and intense interpersonal relationships characterized by extremes between idealization and devaluation (also known as \u201csplitting\u201d)\nIdentity disturbance: Markedly or persistently unstable self-image or sense of self\nImpulsive behaviour in at least two areas that are potentially self-damaging (e.g., spending, sex, substance abuse, reckless driving, binge eating)\nRecurrent suicidal behaviour, gestures, or threats, or self-harming behaviour\nEmotional instability in reaction to day-to-day events (e.g., intense episodic sadness, irritability, or anxiety usually lasting a few hours and only rarely more than a few days)\nInappropriate, intense anger or difficulty controlling anger (e.g., frequent displays of temper, constant anger, recurrent physical fights)\nTransient, stress-related paranoid ideation or severe dissociative symptoms\nCompared to normal emotional changes, the ones typical of BPD are very drastic and intense. They have a negative impact on all aspects of life from relationships, to work and other areas of activities. They are more frequent and dramatic than normal emotional changes and happen over the course of years.\nEmotional instability and impulsivity are common descriptors of children and teenagers. While, most of them will grow out of it, for some they persist and intensify into adulthood, eventually receiving a BPD diagnosis.\nBPD affects about 2% of the population and it is seen in about 10% of psychiatric inpatients and 20% of outpatients. It is seen in women more than men.\nIf you sometimes have emotional changes and are worried if they are due to BPD ask yourself whether they have an impact on your daily activities such as work or interpersonal relationships. it might be that you are a sensitive person, experiencing emotional instability more frequently than others.\nBorderline Personality Disorder (BPD) was last modified: November 23rd, 2018 by Private Therapy Clinic\nTHERAPISTS WHO Treat Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) AT PRIVATE THERAPY CLINIC",

        "title": "How Big Business Fuels Haitian-Dominican Tensions",
        "raw_content": "How Big Business Fuels Haitian-Dominican Tensions\nWith hundreds of descendants of Haitian migrants facing deportation, Haitian Lawyer Network\u2019s President Ezili Danto explains how Haitian and Dominican oligarchs exploit Haitian laborers and fuel xenophobia\nIn the Dominican Republic hundreds of thousands of people of Haitian descent may be deported any day now. That\u2019s because a 2013 ruling by the DR\u2019s constitutional court stripped the citizenship rights of people born to Haitian parents after 1929. It\u2019s caused thousands to race to Dominican government buildings in an attempt to register for legal status. Government officials expect to grant either work visas or permanent residency to about 200,000 people despite estimate showing more than half a million people of Haitian descent live in the DR.\nThis is just another twist in the tale of two countries that share one island, Haiti to the east, the DR to the west. This story goes back hundreds of years, but today we wanted to focus on the modern-day policies that have created tensions between Dominicans and Haitians. Tensions that have gotten so high at times that Haitians have been forced out of their homes and terrorized by mobs in border communities like this one. So we want to dig deeper and ask who benefits from these immigration policies that will leave hundreds of thousands of people stateless.\nNow joining us to get into these deeper issues is our guest Ezili Danto. She is the president of the Haitian Lawyers\u2019 Leadership Network and the founder of Free Haiti Movement.\nEZILI DANTO, PRESIDENT, HAITIAN LAWYERS LEADERSHIP NETWORK: Thank you for having me.\nDESVARIEUX: So Ezili, many in the mainstream media attribute this deportation, mass deportation fiasco, simply on cultural or racial tensions between the two sides. But where does policy fit into this narrative? Can you speak to what specific policies have created conditions that we\u2019re seeing today?\nDANTO: The oligarchy in Haiti works with the oligarchy in the Dominican Republic. In Haiti that oligarchy is made up of a lot of billionaires, folks like Bigio and Acra and Mev. In Haiti we call them the mercenary families. They are the subcontractors for empire. In the Dominican Republic they also have an oligarchy. That oligarchy also works for, for instance I\u2019ll give you an example of who benefits from this denationalization.\nAt the moment in the Dominican Republic there\u2019s a lot of tension going on with regards to Barrick Gold that\u2019s mining big mountains in the Dominican Republic. That is, destroying the environment. Many, many people in the Dominican Republic that live in those areas of mining have shown that in their blood they\u2019ve got cyanide, sulfur, and lead. Who benefits while all of us are looking at this amazing, stunning, racist ruling of 2013? If Barrick Gold wants people off of particular land, and they do, if those people happen to be immigrants who were Haitian children, they can just deport them to Haiti.\nSo there\u2019s a lot of people that are benefiting. And so both Haiti and the Dominican Republic are today ruled by puppets that service the corporate interest more so than they service the domestic interests of each of those countries.\nDESVARIEUX: Ezili, this story that you\u2019ve sort of laid out, this narrative, it sounds a bit similar to the immigration battle that we have here in the United States. And I say that because there is a growing movement here in the United States and in the Dominican Republic of people saying that what we\u2019re seeing of these immigrants of Haitian descent coming in and keeping wages down for Dominicans. What do you make of that argument, that having laborers of Haitian descent in the country does nothing to help the living standards for Dominicans, since their [present] ensures that agribusiness can profit from their low-wage labor?\nDANTO: I think there\u2019s some truth to that. I don\u2019t think\u2013if for instance the Dominicans actually wanted to do menial jobs then yeah, the Haitians are taking over the menial jobs. Jobs that no one wants to do. I think it\u2019s 90 percent of the agricultural workers in the Dominican Republic are migrants, Haitian migrants. I think that a great percentage of the construction workers in the Dominican Republic are Haitians, migrants, folks that have come in.\nAnd they\u2019re coming in because corporations are bringing them in. They\u2019re not\u2013initially the Haitians that went to the Dominican Republic went during the time of, in, en masse. They went during the time of the U.S. occupation of both of those countries. And during the U.S. occupation of both of those countries, which was 1915-1934 for Haiti and 1916-1926 for the Dominican Republic, the United States was running both of those countries. And because Haitians would not be sharecroppers in Haiti they transported them to the Dominican Republic in what\u2019s called the bateyes.\nIt is the descendants of those Haitians who went by contract between the Dominican Republic and Haiti, government contract, who are now being told that they came in illegally. At that time they came in legally. We\u2019re talking about the same thing now. We have a lot of Haitians who are legally working in the Dominican Republic as domestics, as construction workers, and as agricultural workers. I think it was $2 billion in trade that goes to Haiti, that go from the Dominican Republic, and the workers are Haitians. But they\u2019re not being paid.\nDominicans don\u2019t want those jobs. Dominicans want to\u2013well, what\u2019s been happening is that Dominicans, because there\u2019s no real work for them, just like there\u2019s no real\u2013in the other colonized countries of the Caribbean, just like there\u2019s no real work for folks in Jamaica, Bahamas. They have to emigrate, because the only real work that\u2019s left for the population is to work at the tourist industries. And that has led a whole different sort of trade in terms of prostitution in the Dominican Republic that I\u2019m sure that the Dominicans are not proud of, or don\u2019t want. They\u2019re not going to say, we want to give those to Haitians.\nSo essentially for the Dominican Republic, masses. They are a mass of people who are poor. The assets of their resources\u2013and there is tremendous resource in the Dominican Republic in terms of natural resources, just like there\u2019s tremendous resources in Haiti. We have massive oil, we have massive gold. We have copper, iridium. All of those things in Haiti, for instance, are being carted out behind this UN occupation. But in the Dominican Republic when the United States left their occupation in 1926 they were still, for instance in the Dominican Republic, collecting revenues. Custom receipts. Until like, 1967.\nSo Dominican Republic has been occupied and has had to pay fiefdom to the ruling American power. And they use, of course, their oligarchs. I\u2019ll give you one example. There was a big scandal, not recently, but during the last five years, during Michel Martelly, who\u2019s the president of Haiti. About how his campaign, I think it was like, $2.5 million kickback from a senator in the Dominican Republic, Felix Bautista who, the corruption there. Who got lots of contracts to rebuild Haiti. No-bid contracts.\nSo there is a convergence of the oligarchy on the Haitian side with the oligarchy of the Dominican side. And you have these issues of workers. Because what happens if, for instance, people working for\u2013Barrick Gold, for instance, claims that it has 9,000 workers. If those workers happen to be without paperwork, and let\u2019s say no one wants to pay them, they don\u2019t have to.\nDESVARIEUX: Yeah. Yeah. So this sounds like to me that these policies aren\u2019t working for everyday Haitians, and it clearly isn\u2019t working for everyday Dominicans. So what do you suggest? Can you give us some specific examples of policies that you think would be in the interest of both everyday people, either if they\u2019re Haitian or Dominican?\nDANTO: First of all, policy, repeal the 2013 law. Reinstate the rights of Dominicans of Haitian descent who had their paperwork. Reinstate that. And find a particular way\u2013we believe of course every nation has the right to control their borders. And to control illegal immigration. And if\u2013and control that, that\u2019s fine. But you cannot take out the rights of Haitians going back till 1929 and say that that\u2019s somehow an immigration policy.\nDESVARIEUX: All right. Ezili, thank you so much for joining us.\nDANTO: Thank you very much.\nEzili Danto\nEzili Danto is the President of the Haitian Lawyers Leadership Network and founder of the Free Haiti Movement.",

As Jean-Luc Godard famously noted, it\u2019s a \u201cstupid, stupid idea,\u201d a quote which has been bandied about on all of the film\u2019s marketing. Cutting and full of bitter irony, director Michel Hazanavicius takes a critical view of the famed director\u2019s politics and relationships. Based on the novel Un an apr\u00e8s from his second wife Anne Wiazemsky, the film cobbles together some of that book\u2019s arguments against Godard\u2019s personal character, while subsequently sidelining its author in favor of political commentary.\nThere\u2019s a unique energy to the satire. It seems to be seething with jealousy all the way, an embittered Hazanavicius not at all content with his Academy Awards for the much funnier The Artist. The perspective simply feels wrongheaded, perverting the subject of an ex-wive\u2019s manuscript and forming an anti-political manifesto from its pages? It doesn\u2019t make a lick of sense structurally\u2014trying to find what it wants to achieve at any moment is a big guessing game.\nStylistically Godard Mon Amour falls plainly between Woody Allen and Godard himself. Allen\u2019s influence is abruptly felt: all sorts of primary colors and then the current subtext: his gross inability to separate from the stories that now define him. The jealous Hazanavicius employs much of Godard\u2019s signature style herein: from the uncomfortable longshots (Weekend) to signature scenes of the political film it\u2019s intent on mocking (La Chinoise).\nWhat we can believe is that Godard was an irascible artist. All those stories prove that out; the way he\u2019d treat actors, or even his disbelief in their essential value, is spelled out repeatedly in the film for laughs. Louis Garrel clocks in a petty performance as Godard that\u2019s sometimes funny on account of being self-aware of its own bitterness: \u201cReal actors are dumb. They\u2019re beneath contempt. They cry and laugh on demand, even crawl\u2026 I find that grotesque. They aren\u2019t free. If you tell one to say actors are dumb, I\u2019ll bet he\u2019ll do it.\u201d\nPaired with an excellent Stacy Martin, they do begin to make an interesting on-screen couple. Their arguments about love and the French revolutions of \u201968 show us one side of the artist too committed to his craft to experience life. Martin\u2019s performance is exemplary and had the film focused squarely on her, it could have been full of winning moments. Instead, we mostly get a political satire of the ridiculous Communist director who may have started the Nouvelle Vague movement, where reality takes principle over prescribed tradition, but what was his reality anyway? For now, it is another story of an ex-wife defined only by her husband without any independent qualities as a person.\nThere\u2019s a good picture that could have been made here. Godard, author of 127 different films, remains a subject at large in our imaginations and ready for documentation on screen. We can hope the next time it\u2019s attempted, there is a better grasp on accuracy and staying within the lines of the facts. There are a few moments of great self-referential comedy surrounded by such mediocrity and seething jealousy, it doesn\u2019t amount to much. Just because it\u2019s a \u201cstupid, stupid idea,\u201d doesn\u2019t mean that it does not need to be said. We\u2019re almost ready to hold men in the industry accountable and someday, when we get all the facts right, someone can make something of considerable weight on the subject.\nPrevious Entry North Bend Film Festival: My Own Private Idaho: Iconic Shakespeare of the Pacific Northwest\nNext Entry Citizen Kane: Innovation Through Ignorance",

        "raw_content": "Worst Fudge-it Budget Proven, but Free Ride from Media\nOn Thursday we learned Campbell's Liberals ran for election on an impossible budget promise that inflated tax revenues by $2.5 billion. Why are media selling this as good news?\nBy Will McMartin 12 Jul 2010 | TheTyee.ca\nTyee contributing editor Will McMartin is a veteran political advisor and analyst. Read his previous columns here.\nPremier Campbell and Finance Minister Hansen: Math failures, or truth challenged?\nReleased on Thursday, B.C.'s public accounts for the fiscal year 2009/2010 conclusively prove that the pre-election fiscal plan foisted on British Columbians by Premier Gordon Campbell and his BC Liberals on Feb 17, 2009 was the worst -- the most egregious, the most deceptive -- \"Fudge-it Budget\" in provincial history.\nIn Tight Times, Campbell Gov't Chooses to Help Big Banks\nThe public accounts show that the Campbell Liberals inflated revenues in Victoria's main operating account, the Consolidated Revenue Fund (CRF), by a stunning $2.558 billion -- yes, Billion -- with taxation receipts alone overstated by $2.1 billion.\nEven under the broader GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) presentation, the Campbell government exaggerated last year's expected revenues by a whopping $1.3 billion.\nThe result: a gargantuan shortfall of $1.779 billion for fiscal 2009/10 -- nearly four-times higher than Campbell's oft-repeated, pre-election pledge of a deficit no bigger than $495 million.\nCaught in a global crash\nLet's go back to the fall of 2008, when the world was caught in an alarming financial and economic meltdown. In September, Lehman Brothers, one of the United States' five biggest investment banks, declared bankruptcy. Earlier in the year, Bear Stearns, another of the \"big five,\" avoided a similar fate only through its forced sale to JP Morgan Chase. And bare weeks after the fall of Lehman, Merrill Lynch was rescued in a government-ordered sale to Bank of America.\nDozens of the U.S.'s largest financial institutions -- insurance companies like AIG (bailed out by the U.S. Federal Reserve and forced to liquidate assets), mortgage providers such as Countrywide Financial (also acquired by Bank of America), banks and thrifts like Wachovia (rescued by Wells Fargo) and Washington Mutual (liquidated, parts sold to JP Morgan), and even government-backed mortgage-guarantors Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae -- either fell into or faced oblivion.\nWithin days of Lehman's failure, officials appointed by President George W. Bush met with the U.S. Congress and begged for an unprecedented and massive bail-out. By early October, efforts by Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson and U.S. Federal Reserve Chair Ben Bernanke were rewarded with passage of the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act, a central feature of which was the controversial $700 billion-plus Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP).\nThe fiscal contagion quickly spread beyond financial institutions. Companies across North America and Europe began to retrench, cancelling or scaling-back capital expenditures and laying-off workers; many simply shut their doors. (Within a year, the governments of the United States, Canada and Ontario found themselves the reluctant owners of two of the world's largest automobile manufacturers, General Motors and Chrysler.)\nUnemployment soared around the globe and governments everywhere were faced with plummeting revenues. Administrations of every ideological stripe -- left, right, and in-between -- faced the prospect of massive fiscal deficits and skyrocketing debt loads.\nAlarmingly, economists, politicians and others began to discuss a reprise of the Great Depression of the 1930s.\n'Worst crisis': Campbell\nOne of the politicians who evoked memories of the Dirty '30s was B.C. Premier Gordon Campbell. On Oct. 22, 2008 -- mere weeks after the collapse of Lehman Brothers and the U.S. Congress's enactment of TARP -- he went on province-wide television and began his remarks by saying: \"Today the world's financial system is in the grips of the worst crisis in over 75 years.\"\n\"World stock markets are reeling, commodity prices are plunging and the world's financial system is under attack. The ripple effects are being felt in every corner of the globe and every region of our province.\"\nHe added: \"I thought it was important to speak with you directly about what it means for British Columbia and the new actions we will take to help keep B.C.'s economy strong.\"\nThe timing could not have been worse for Campbell's political fortunes. In just four months time his government was obliged to present its budget for 2009/10. That budget, moreover, had to be \"balanced.\"\nAnd then three months after that, the Campbell Liberals were to face the B.C. electorate.\nIt was simple. First the Campbell Liberals gutted their own balanced-budget law, amending it to permit fiscal shortfalls over a four-year period.\nAnd then they lied. On Feb. 17, 2009, Hansen unveiled a budget with a relatively miniscule $495 million shortfall (just 1.3 per cent of revenues), a budget British Columbians now can see -- thanks to the just-released public accounts -- was chock-full of misrepresentations, falsehoods and distortions.\nAmidst recession, increased tax revenues projected\nThe worst prevarications concerned tax revenues.\nIn 2008/09, the fiscal year just ending when the BC Liberals brought in their pre-election budget, personal income tax (PIT) revenues added up to $6.097 billion. Given the slowing economy -- and, as Campbell said, conditions that resembled the Great Depression -- would it have been prudent for Hansen to plan for a reduction in PIT revenues in 2009/10?\nProbably, but instead he claimed that the personal income tax would generate nearly half-a-billion extra dollars -- $6.562 billion -- compared to the preceding year.\nNow, the public accounts show that, indeed, PIT revenues actually dropped to just $5.524 billion -- more than one billion dollars below Hansen's exaggerated forecast.\nRevenues from the social service (sales) tax were $4.921 billion in 2008/09. Again, a cautious -- and truthful -- finance minister might have budgeted for a slight reduction in 2009/10. Not Hansen; he boosted sales tax receipts up to $5.087 billion.\nThe latest public accounts reveal the truth: the sales tax last year generated just $4.739 billion -- $182 million lower than the previous year, and $348 million under Hansen's fudged, pre-election estimate.\nIt was a similar story in every other category of tax revenues. Hansen overstated corporation income tax receipts by $208 million, property taxes by $117 million, the fuel tax by $454 million and the carbon tax by $4 million.\nIn fact, Hansen's pre-election budget even showed income of $54 million from the re-jiggered corporation capital tax (which supposedly was to become a minimum tax for large financial institutions).\nPost-election, of course, the BC Liberals quietly repealed the minimum tax and gave away the entire $54 million to Canada's most-profitable corporations, our big banks.\nTax revenues came in $2 billion short\nIn 2008/09, tax revenues totalled $17.511 billion. In his pre-election budget for 2009/10, Hansen -- in what ranks as the worst example of fiscal recklessness and dishonesty ever seen in British Columbia -- boosted that number upward by $974 million, to $18.485 billion.\nYes, even as the world's economy was collapsing and Gordon Campbell evoked memories of the Great Depression, B.C.'s finance minister told British Columbians that provincial revenues were on the rise.\nNow the public accounts reveal that B.C.'s actual tax revenues were only $16.418 billion -- an eye-popping $2.067 billion less than Hansen's pre-election budget forecast.\nAnd it wasn't just tax revenues that the Campbell Liberals enhanced before facing B.C. voters. Forests revenues -- even as the U.S. housing sector was in free-fall -- were projected by Hansen to increase to $609 million.\nThe actual number was just $374 million -- $235 million below Hansen's pre-election budget estimate.\nWildly missed forecast\nIn the year just ending, 2008/09, as the BC Liberals' brought in their pre-election budget, Consolidated Revenue Fund receipts totalled $30.471 billion.\nOn Feb. 17, 2009, Hansen said that he saw CRF revenues for 2009/10 rising to $31.128 billion.\nThe public accounts for last year now disclose that CRF income actually was $28.570 billion -- a discrepancy of $2.558 billion from Hansen's pre-election forecast.\nThat's $568 for every man, woman and child living in British Columbia.\n(And that's after an end-of-the-year, last-minute $250 million gift from Ottawa to help Victoria make the transition to the Harmonized Sales Tax.)\nFour times the 'fudge'\nLooked at another way, it is evident that Campbell, Hansen and the BC Liberal government overstated Victoria's pre-election CRF revenues by more than eight per cent.\nBy comparison, the notorious NDP \"Fudge-it Budgets\" of the mid-1990s saw Glen Clark's government inflate CRF receipts -- with so-called \"revenue optimism\" -- by a relatively puny one-to-two per cent.\nNearly every British Columbian of voting age and above probably remembers the outcry sparked by those fudged fiscal plans for 1995/96 and 1996/97.\nA group of outraged citizens, led by David Stockell of Kelowna (and financially supported by the National Citizens Coalition), commenced a legal action in B.C. Supreme Court against a trio of NDP MLAs, alleging that their party had won the 1996 general election by \"fraud.\" (Several years later, in 2000, the court rendered a verdict of acquittal.)\nIn Victoria, the province's auditor general launched a review of the entire budget-making process, and subsequently issued a report that described as \"inappropriate\" the New Democrats' arbitrary boosting of certain revenues.\nPerhaps no group was more outraged by the Clark government's budgets than the provincial news media.\nIn his book, Barbarians in the Garden City, a screed that alleged the New Democratic Party in the 1990s had turned British Columbia into the \"village idiot of Confederation,\" author Mark Milke wrote of \"the 1,000 documents released in 1996 after the Vancouver Sun used freedom of information laws to dig through the government's Maginot line of political spin.\"\nHas anyone seen anything close to a comparable effort by the Sun to get at the \"truth\" in the many months following Hansen's fudge-packed, pre-election fiscal plan?\nBC's media spins the opposite\nTyee readers will be shocked to know that Thursday's release of the 2009/10 public accounts garnered little criticism from B.C.'s mainstream news media.\nIn fact, rather than acknowledging the historic size of the pre-election fudge larded-out by Campbell and the Liberals in early 2009, the provincial media strove to praise the government's ability to record a smaller-than-expected shortfall in tough economic times.\n\"B.C. deficit projection shrinks by $1-billion\" was the headline on a Globe and Mail story, while \"B.C. deficit $1 billion lower than projected for 2009-10\" ran above a report in the Vancouver Sun.\n\"Drastic spending cuts reduce B.C. deficit by $996 million, province says\" read the headline for an analysis in the Victoria Times-Colonist, which was nearly-identical to the headline on an unsigned piece on the CBC's website: \"Spending cuts reduce B.C. deficit by $1B.\"\nAt Vancouver radio station NEWS 1130, the take was \"B.C. deficit $1 billion smaller.\"\nNever mind election pledges\nNope. For B.C.'s mainstream news media, Hansen's pre-election budget no longer is relevant.\nThat's because in September 2009, just three-and-a-half months after Campbell and the BC Liberals won re-election to government, Hansen introduced a follow-up fiscal plan that showed a post-election shortfall of $2.8 billion.\nAnd for the media, that September re-write became the new benchmark -- especially when the government's Public Affairs Bureau guided their thoughts with a misleading news release to announce publication of the public accounts.\n\"B.C. Public Accounts Show Prudent Fiscal Management,\" gloated the news release headline, with text below announcing \"a smaller deficit than forecast.\"\nIt seems obvious that most mainstream reporters simply re-wrote the PAB spin without bothering to consult or examine either the actual public accounts or the pre-election budget.\nAs for legal action by concerned citizens, or a full-blown review by the auditor general, well ... don't hold your breath.\nB.C.'s 2009/10 public accounts reveal a massive and historic misrepresentation of the province's finances by Gordon Campbell's BC Liberal government on the eve of the 2009 general election. But it's news that's likely to remain unknown by most British Columbians, while the public accounts themselves are ignored on the musty shelves of the legislative library.\nRead more: Politics, BC Votes '09: Your Issues",

        "raw_content": "The Nunes memo is a dud. Here\u2019s what Republicans aren\u2019t telling you about it.\nWASHINGTON, DC - FEBRUARY 02: U.S. President Donald Trump meets with North Korean defectors in the Oval Office of the White House on February 2, 2018 in Washington, D.C. Trump's meeting is one week before the Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang, South Korea in which North Korea will be participating. (Photo by Zach Gibson-Pool/Getty Images)\nAfter spending weeks breathlessly advertising its allegedly \u201cshocking\u201d content, House Republicans released on Friday a six-page memo which accused officials at the FBI and the Department of Justice of politicizing the early stages of the investigation into possible collusion between Russia and the Trump presidential campaign.\nThe memo alleges that the DOJ and FBI used the infamous Steele dossier, compiled by former MI6 agent Christopher Steele, as a lynchpin in their application for a secretive Foreign Intelligence Surveillance (FISA) warrant to monitor Trump campaign associate Carter Page. The document was paid for, in part, by the Democratic Party and the Hillary Clinton campaign, and a third party conducted and compiled the research. This, in the eyes of House Intelligence Chairman Devin Nunes (R-CA), makes everything the dossier has touched \u2014 including the investigation by special counsel Robert Mueller \u2014 a poisoned chalice.\n\u201cOur findings\u2026 raise concerns with the legitimacy and legality of certain DOJ and FBI interactions with the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court,\u201d the memo reads. \u201c[They] represent a troubling breakdown of legal process established to protect the American people from abuses related to the FISA process.\u201d\nBut while conservatives are breathlessly describing the memo\u2019s release as \u201cbeyond shocking\u201d \u2014 thereby broadly claiming that Robert Mueller\u2019s investigation into Russian collusion has been irredeemably tainted \u2014 there are several gaping holes in this argument.\nFirstly, there\u2019s the problem of Carter Page: it\u2019s exceedingly unlikely the Steele dossier was the only reason to grant a FISA warrant to monitor him. He has a long history of meeting with dubious Russian officials. According to the Wall Street Journal, Page \u201chas been known to U.S. counterintelligence officials dating back to at least 2013.\u201d He met in 2013 repeatedly with Victor Podobnyy, who was later charged with trying to recruit Page as an informer while posing as a U.N. attach\u00e9 to the Russian consulate. Page has confirmed that he knew Podobnyy. Even at the height of the Trump campaign, Page took two trips to Moscow where he boasted about his outreach with Russian legislators and \u201csenior members of the presidential administration.\u201d There were plenty of suspicious Russian connections that Page had which would have opened him up to scrutiny, but Rep. Devin Nunes\u2019 memo would have you believe the Steele dossier was the sole basis for the surveillance on Page.\nThere\u2019s also the issue of the FBI and DOJ publicly doubting the veracity of the memo. In a strongly-worded statement released on Wednesday, FBI chief Christopher Wray said the Bureau was provided with a limited time frame to review the memo before Republicans voted to release it. \u201cThe FBI was provided with a limited opportunity to review this memo the day before the committee voted to release it,\u201d FBI chief Christopher Wray said. \u201cAs expressed in our initial review, we have grave concerns about material omissions of fact that fundamentally impact the memo\u2019s accuracy.\u201d Former attorney general Eric Holder went even further, saying that releasing the Republican version of the memo was \u201cdangerous and irresponsible\u201d.\nIn response to the FBI\u2019s criticism, Trump (who billed himself as the \u201claw and order candidate\u201d during the election) took the extraordinary step of publicly broadsiding his own FBI director Christopher Wray \u2014 a man Trump himself selected as political nominee. After previously tweeting that Wray was \u201ca man of impeccable credentials,\u201d Trump said on Friday that the leadership in the DOJ and FBI had \u201cpoliticized the sacred investigative process in favor of Democrats and against Republicans.\u201d It\u2019s hard to imagine Wray suddenly became an anti-Trump operative or Hilary sympathizer after assuming the office.\nFinally, even if you accept the Republicans\u2019 memo at face value \u2014 i.e. that Christopher Steele had been bought and paid for by scheming Clinton acolytes to falsely tie the Trump campaign to the Kremlin \u2014 that doesn\u2019t explain why multiple sections of the dossier have been independently verified. For instance, it claims that former Trump campaign chief Paul Manafort agreed to sideline talks with Russia on Ukraine for information about Hillary Clinton. Last year, the New York Times reported that Manafort had repeated contacts with Russian intelligence agents and previously registered under the Foreign Agents Registration Act partly due to his pro-Russia work in Ukraine. Numerous law enforcement and intelligence have also confirmed that Michael Flynn was \u201cregularly communicating\u201d with Russian nationals \u2014 the evidence of \u201cextensive conspiracy between [the Trump] campaign team and [the] Kremlin, sanctioned at the highest levels\u201d which the Steele dossier claims.\nOverall, the memo represents an attempt, by Republicans, to discredit the investigation into Russian collusion and save Trump from its potential implications \u2014 a point that Democrats have been eager to emphasize.\n\u201cChairman Nunes\u2019 decision\u2026 to publicly release misleading allegations against the Department of Justice and Federal Bureau of Investigation is a shameful effort to discredit these institutions, undermine the Special Counsel\u2019s ongoing investigation, and undercut congressional probes,\u201d Democrats on the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence said in a press release. \u201cIt is tragic, if all too predictable, that this President would allow the release of the memo despite FBI and DOJ\u2019s expressions of \u2018grave concerns about material omissions of fact that fundamentally impact the [Republicans\u2019] memo\u2019s accuracy\u2019. But most destructive of all may be the announcement by Chairman Nunes that he has placed the FBI and DOJ under investigation, impugning and impairing the work of the dedicated professionals trying to keep our country safe.\u201d\nTags: Developing, Politics",

I love to remind them that neither Bill Gates or Michael Dell have a college degree and are both highly successful.\nIn fact, stories abound of homeschool graduates who have become successful business owners and employees without a college degree, and there are many ways to accomplish that.\nOne of the great things about homeschooling is parents get to learn what the talents, skills and interests of their children are and then find ways to help develop them. In homeschooling, real life experiences can serve as a much more effective education than the classroom.\nMy oldest son is the owner of a software company today that serves the cotton industry. He gained the necessary experience by apprenticing for a friend of ours who taught him computer programing and later hired him. My son later ran the company, ultimately bought it and continues to run it today.\nThere are a host of reasons why not every student should attend college. The astronomical cost is one obvious consideration.\nSometimes our children prefer a job or career that doesn\u2019t involve a college degree, and pursuing that doesn\u2019t make them unsuccessful. In fact, one has to question the merit of a college degree if it doesn\u2019t teach a marketable skill set that the student can use.\nHomeschoolers have taught the world that non-traditional styles of education work. Some degrees are well worth the cost. Many are clearly not. Consider whether college is actually teaching your student a valuable skill set that will aid them later in life or just burying him or her in student loan debt without providing a job to pay it off.\nSign up for email updates and text \u201cTXHOMESCHOOL\u201d to 67076 to receive updates on homeschool and family-related issues during the current legislative session.\nFather Desperate to Protect His Son From Court Decision\nRecently, the news of New York state removing virtually all restrictions on abortion has been shocking the people who believe that all children deserve to be protected.\nThe vast majority of Americans believe that abortion should be restricted, but the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that abortion is legal without restriction and thus legislatures in eight states have no restriction on how late in a pregnancy an abortion can be obtained.\nInterestingly, many people who love to talk about how much they care for children are in the forefront of taking legal protections away from the unborn and even arguing for infanticide.\nThe same sort of child-harming policies related to gender dysphoria are undermining parents and allowing\u2014and sometimes requiring\u2014life-altering decisions for children that often lead to tragic situations.\nA recent rally by people from both sides of the political spectrum who were calling for changes to protect children in these situations was generally ignored by the mainstream media, of course. One report said, \u201cA common theme in all the stories was how \u2018gender identity\u2019 laws and policies had tied parents\u2019 hands behind their backs, demonized them, and destroyed their relationship with their child.\u201d\nThe same battle over what is \u201cin the best interest of the child\u201d is being fought in North Texas.\nA couple engaged in a divorce case involves a mother who is a pediatrician and has, with the help of \u201cexperts\u201d convinced a judge, so far, that one of their twin six-year-old sons has identified as a girl. The father has launched a website to tell his story of his efforts to save his son from the life-altering decisions being forced on the child.\nFather Explains What It's Like to see His Son Sexually Abused\nI'm excited to announce the launch of the Luke Macias show, a podcast covering news, politics and special interviews with a Texas twist.I'm even more excited about our first interview.

        "raw_content": "December Outside the Heardd\nAs is often the case with distinctive endeavors, the creative path of Thomas Dybdahl -- the 32-year-old guitarist, singer, songwriter, and native of Sandnes, Norway -- has been, for nearly a decade, all his own. With Songs, his U.S. debut, Dybdahl distinguishes himself with fire and finesse. Melodicism animates Dybdahl songs like \u201cCecilia\u201d and \u201cB.A. Part,\u201d while other songs, such as \u201cFrom Grace\u201d and \u201cThe Great October Sound,\u201d move that same well-founded sense of melodic composition into comparatively more ecstatic and less kinetic states. Dybdahl, whose lustrous tenor behaves with ease, does not believe that anger is the only energy worth exploiting. In fact, Songs\u2019 songs are the romantic, introspective, out-going, hum-worthy, and adventurous tunes of a guy who -- with characteristic honesty -- once cited the Mozart Requiem as his favorite piece of music. But for Dybdahl -- who\u2019s first loves were Metallica, Led Zeppelin, and Jimi Hendrix -- it\u2019s all music.\nGorillaz are the world\u2019s preeminent animated Hip Hop supergroup. Though overseen by one Murdoc Niccals, Gorillazhave been aided and abetted by Blur\u2019s Damon Albarn and cartoonist Jamie Hewlett -- the creator of Tank Girl. Not much is truly known, but the past has found this ragtag group joined by real-life musicians Dangermouse, De La Soul, Del the Funky Homosapien, Mos Def, Bobby Womack, Lou Reed, Mark E. Smith and... uh Dennis Hopper. In 10 years, Gorillaz haven\u2019t just topped charts around the world, hit #1 in more than a dozen countries and garnered sales in excess of 13 million; they\u2019ve also received influential awards and recognition that's represented the band\u2019s significance beyond their music -- including the Jim Henson Award for Creativity. The Singles Collection: 2001-2011 celebrates 10 years of audio / visual innovation from the world\u2019s most successful virtual band by bringing together album favorites, choice remixes, and amazing live cuts. Take that, Banana Splits.\nWe Bought A Zoo Soundtrack\nThe soundtrack for We Bought A Zoo features music by Sigur R\u00f3s front man and leading light, Jon Thor Birgisson, aka Jonsi. Composed at the personal request of director - and huge Sigur R\u00f3s aficionado - Cameron Crowe, the soundtrack includes original music composed by Jonsi, which plays an integral part to the film's heartfelt emotional landscape. \"[Jonsi] arrived from Iceland with a toy sampler keyboard and a headful of ideas,\" says Cameron. \"Within a week, [he] had composed a series of themes that would reflect everything we'd hoped for. In his music were all the highs and lows and passionate in-betweens of the film itself. The instinct that made the movie come full circle.\" Written and recorded in four months, the soundtrack to We Bought A Zoo comprises more than half-an-hour of brand new music from Jonsi, including two full songs and nine achingly beautiful themes, plus songs from Jonsi's acclaimed solo album, \u201cGo,\u201d as well as on of one of Sigur R\u00f3s' most memorable songs, \u201cHoppipolla.\u201d We Bought A Zoo is destined for Soundtrack glory...

        "raw_content": "\u2190 Review: The Levelling\nReview: All These Sleepless Nights \u2192\n10 films you need to see in April 2017\nJust ahead of the summer movie season (which arguably kicks off on May 5th with the release of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2), April is shaping up to be a strange month at the cinema. Even the major releases seem a little more low-key than usual. But with most of the tentpole franchises absent (save one notable exception), maybe it\u2019ll make room for something a little different to catch on at the box office.\nBox office prognostication aside, there are a lot of really promising, slightly offbeat offerings this month. Here are the 10 I\u2019m most excited for.\nGraduation (April 7, Limited)\nA high-profile title on last year\u2019s festival circuit, Graduation is the latest project from Romanian auteur Cristian Mungiu. Best known for his Palme d\u2019Or-winning 4 Months, 3 Weeks, 2 Days, Mungiu found success at Cannes again this year with Graduation, winning the festival\u2019s Best Director award (which he shared with Olivier Assayas for Personal Shopper). The IMDB plot description for Graduation is concise and mysterious, conveying perhaps all I want to know going in: \u201cA film about compromises and the implications of the parent\u2019s role.\u201d\nColossal (April 7, Limited)\nFeaturing a somewhat bonkers premise and a surprisingly star-studded cast, this latest film from Nacho Vigalondo (Timecrimes) is one that sounds too unique not to give a chance to. Anne Hathaway stars as Gloria, an American alcoholic who begins to realize that her own actions are directly linked to those of a giant monster who is simultaneously terrorizing Seoul, South Korea. Though it received generally positive reviews out of last year\u2019s TIFF, this one seems like it could be divisive. In case it helps win you over, the film also stars Jason Sudeikis, Dan Stevens, and Tim Blake Nelson.\nWin It All (April 7, Netflix)\nKicking off a strong month of Netflix exclusives is the latest from director Joe Swanberg, Win it All. Swanberg, once known for his truly voracious movie-making pace, has taken a break (by his standards) from movies to work on two recent series for Netflix, Easy and Love. Now back with his first film since 2015\u2019s Digging for Fire, it seems like Swanberg has found a medium that suits his low-key films. Win it All stars Jake Johnson, Keegan-Michael Key, and Joe Lo Truglio and follows a man who spends all the money he\u2019s promised to hold on to for an imprisoned friend, only to have to quickly win it back when the friend\u2019s prison sentence gets shortened. Johnson (here a co-screenwriter) has become a regular collaborator with Swanberg, so here\u2019s hoping this go-round is as entertaining and insightful as 2013\u2019s great Drinking Buddies.\nMine (April 7, Limited)\nUtilizing the usually successful trope of putting your protagonist in a confined space they can\u2019t get out of (think 127 Hours, Buried, and Frozen [not the Disney one]), Mine is about a soldier (Armie Hammer) who gets stranded in the desert, surrounded by landmines and unable to move. It\u2019ll be interesting to see how Hammer handles having the film pretty much all to himself (by the looks of it), considering his other work has either been supporting roles or with a co-lead. The premise here is good, so let\u2019s see if the delivery does it justice.\nThe Lost City of Z (April 14, Limited)\nI\u2019m still not totally sold on James Gray as a director, and 2015\u2019s middling The Immigrant didn\u2019t do a lot to change my mind. However, I have hope for his latest project, despite the fact (because of the fact?) that it stars the likes of Charlie Hunnam and Robert Pattinson. The Lost City of Z tells the true story of Col. Percival Fawcett (Hunnam), a British explorer searching in the 1920\u2019s for a mysterious South American city.\nMaudie (April 14, Limited)\nDelving into the life of Canadian folk artist Maud Lewis, Maudie stars Sally Hawkins and Ethan Hawke. Those two names alone are enough to pique my interest, but when combined with strong buzz from the festival circuit and a gorgeous-looking trailer, Maudie becomes a must-seee.\nTramps (April 21, Netflix)\nWhile it may not have the same star power as something like the upcoming War Machine, it was nice to see Netflix snap up this indie crime romance, which earned strong reviews during its premiere at TIFF last fall. Starring Callum Turner (Green Room) and Grace Van Patten (Stealing Cars), Tramps is written and directed by Adam Leon, who made a splash with 2013 debut feature, Gimme the Loot. An unlikely rom-com, Tramps takes place in New York and follows two strangers who end up working together when a shady deal goes awry.\nFree Fire (April 21, Wide)\nWith a top-notch cast (Brie Larson, Armie Hammer, Cillian Murphy, Jack Reynor, etc.) and a brash, bullet-riddled premise, it\u2019s not too surprising that Free Fire is getting a major release. It\u2019ll be a big step up in terms of attention for director Ben Wheatley (High-Rise, Kill List), though, previously a favourite in the cult film community. Free Fire looks fun and crowd-pleasing, and I\u2019m intrigued to see how Wheatley\u2019s vision competes among big-budget fare at the box office.\nThe Circle (April 28, Wide)\nAfter his directorial trifecta of Smashed, The Spectacular Now, and The End of the Tour, I\u2019m now automatically excited for any movie helmed by James Ponsoldt. The Circle is far and away his biggest project to date, starring Tom Hanks and Emma Watson and based on the popular 2013 novel of the same name by Dave Eggers. The film follows Mae (Watson), a young woman who lands a lucrative job at a powerful tech company (the titular \u201cCircle\u201d), only to discover that they may have a sinister agenda. Having read and liked the book, I\u2019m highly intrigued to see what Ponsoldt does with the material.\nRodney King (April 28, Netflix)\nA new Spike Lee movie is reason enough to perk up one\u2019s ears (although perhaps also still resist full-fledged excitement, given the director\u2019s spotty track record). This one sounds particularly interesting, even though details are still scarce. Rodney King seems to be a one-man show, examining King (portrayed here by Roger Guenver Smith) and the infamous videotape of his brutal beating at the hands of the LAPD. Lee likely won\u2019t shy away from a bit of controversy with this latest project, so you\u2019ll want to be part of the conversation about this film, which conveniently makes its premiere on Netflix.\nOther films of note: Their Finest (April 7, limited) looks like a charming return to form for Lone Scherfig (An Education), following a group of British propaganda filmmakers during WWII and starring Gemma Arterton, Sam Claflin, and Bill Nighy. And speaking of charm, Chris Evans, Octavia Spencer, and Jenny Slate team up for Gifted (April 7, limited), the latest from Marc Webb (500 Days of Summer, The Amazing Spider-Man) about a young girl with exceptional mathematic skill. Terrence Davies also returns hot off the heels of last year\u2019s Sunset Song with A Quiet Passion (April 14, limited), examining the life of Emily Dickinson. And, finally, April also has something for the adrenaline junkies in the crowd, unleashing the hotly anticipated The Fate of the Furious (April 14, wide).\nThis entry was posted in Movie Preview and tagged 2017 movies, Ben Wheatley, Colossal, Free Fire, Graduation, James Gray, James Ponsoldt, Joe Swanberg, Maudie, Mine, movie preview, Movies, Nacho Vigalondo, Rodney King, Spike Lee, The Circle, The Lost City of Z, Tramps, Win it All.

This was Canada\u2019s birthday, although Canada then included only Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick and Nova Scotia.\n\u00a9 Nancy Rose.\nGive someone special a squirrel calendar (I guarantee you won\u2019t regret it!!)\nhttp://www.flickr.com/photos/nancyandwayne/\nMost nations were born of adversity, unhappy occasions, often due to war. Canada was born of diversity, a curious blending of races, geography and economics.\nFor the most part, her birthday was a happy occasion. In Ottawa, church bells began ringing after midnight, June 30. There was also a 101-gun salute, while 21-gun salutes were fired in other centres. In Saint John and Halifax, however, a number of merchants were so opposed to Confederation that they draped their stores in cr\u00eape!\nThere was a drab ceremony in the Privy Council chamber, where Lord Monck was sworn in as governor-general by Chief Justice Draper. After the cabinet ministers had taken their oaths of office, Lord Monck, who hated pomp as much as Macdonald loved it, announced that Queen Victoria had made John A. Macdonald a Knight Commander of the Bath, which meant they would have no titles. This was a mistake. Cartier and Galt were so angry that they refused the decorations. Later, however, they were made baronets.\nThe rest of the day has been summed up beautifully by W. G. Hardy in From Sea Unto Sea. He wrote:\n\u201cThe official part of the ceremonies was completed by midday. Then, across the Dominion, but more particularly in what had been the province of Canada, the people went on holiday. In Canada East, renamed Quebec, it was flags and bunting and family parties, and a cricket game at Trois Rivi\u00e8res. Canada West, which had now become Ontario, favoured brass bands, regattas, races, and the like. In the more remote centres the farmers gathered in the local fairgrounds or picnic places for a program of sports and a country supper of salads, cold meats, pies and cakes, at tables set up on trestles under the trees. As the soft July night floated down, the villages, towns and cities were bright with Chinese lanterns on the porches and with fireworks and illuminations. The people, the inchoate mass without articulate voice, sensed that something of significance had occurred!\u201c\nDo you like the photo included in today\u2019s post? Yes, I thought so. Nancy Rose not only provided us with beautiful photos of \u201cThe secret life of squirrels\u201c, which will definitely give you a smile but you can also order a calendar from her (a steal at $22 + shipping) !

(Photo credit: Wikipedia)\nOn June 1, 1866, Canada was attacked by a military force which travelled in two rented tugs and some canal boats! The invaders were Fenians (see March 17) who sailed across the Niagara River to Fort Erie, Ontario! As nobody was awake, they had to knock on doors to get people up. They wanted Canadians to join them and be liberated from the \u201ctyranny of Britain.\u201d The good folks of Fort Erie couldn\u2019t see things that way, but they wanted to be nice to the strangely dressed men carrying green flags with harps and gold crowns on them. They fed them cooked ham, tea and coffee.\nThe Fenians had intended to spread out through the Niagara Peninsula after landing at Fort Erie, but they had been up all night. The weather was warm, and so they lay down under the trees and slept for a while. The rest of the day was spent in handing out proclamations from \u201cGeneral\u201d Sweezy and \u201cGeneral\u201d O\u2019Neill, saying that their only quarrel was with the oppressors of Ireland, and that they offered Canadians \u201cthe olive branch of peace and the honest grasp of friendship.\u201d\nMeanwhile, official opinion in Canada West (now Ontario) wasn\u2019t friendly at all. The Queen\u2019s Own Rifles of Toronto, the 13th Battalion from Hamilton, and a force of regulars from St. Catharines were rushed to the area. The Caledonian and York Rifles Companies also arrived. The Canadian troops had only thirty-five bullets each and no food or water. Some of their commanding officers had no experience in warfare and little military training.\nThe Fenians suddenly realized that the invasion was no picnic; there were already casualties. General O\u2019Neill was hoping for reinforcements from Buffalo where 10,000 Fenians had assembled. They were having a good time listening to speeches and drinking whisky, and did not want to leave. The United States Government then decided that it had better do something, and sent an armed revenue cutter to patrol the Niagara River.\nSome of the Fenians who had landed in Canada tried to swim back to the United States and were drowned. General O\u2019Neill then shaved off his whiskers and fled in disguise. The tugs and canal boats came back and took off the rest of the force, towed by the American patrol boat. The skirmishing lasted until Sunday, June 3.\nTo read more about this, there are a few sites I recommend. A good place to begin is at CBC Learning, and the History of Canada Book Series to read book excerpt, then there\u2019s another excerpt to be found at Russian Books.org. Another great site with great information, is Fenian Raid. Then there\u2019s the Queen\u2019s Own Rifles for another good site. You will also want to click your way to Ridgeway Battle.\nPrefer to hold an actual book to read about this? No problem. There\u2019s The History Of Canada Series: The Last Act: Pierre Trudeau, the Gang of Eight, and the Fight for Canada , and Troublous Times in Canada, a History of the Fenian Raids of 1866 and 1870.\nPosted by tkmorin on June 1, 2013 in Canadian-related Links, Fact of the Day, June, Longer Entries, Military, Notable Canadians, On This Day\nTags: 13th Battalion, 1866, Buffalo, Caledonikan, Canada, canada history, Canada West, Canadian, canadian history, Canadian trivia, Fenian, Fenian Raid, Fenians, Fort Erie, General O'Neill, General Sweezy, Government, Hamilton, history, Ireland, June 1, March 17, Military Training, Niagara Peninsula, Niagara River, On this day in Canadian history, Ontario, Pierre Trudeau, Queen's Own Rifles, St. Catharines, Tyranny of Britain, united states, United States Government, York Rifles, York Rifles Comapnies\nJames Mason and the Trent Affair\nSomeone should write a drama called, \u201cThe Trent Affair\u201d starring James (Neville) Mason perhaps (yeah, I know he is no longer with us), because there was a \u201cTrent Affair\u201d and James Mason was a real character in it. Canada became involved to such an extent that the Macdonald-Cartier government was defeated on May 20, 1862.\nDuring the American Civil War a British ship, the Trent, sailed from the United States. James Mason and John Slidell, southerners on their way to take up ambassadorial posts for the Confederates in Europe, were on board. A Northern warship stopped the Trent on the high seas and took them off. Britain was so angry there might have been war if the Prince Consort had not toned down a note sent to Washington by Prime Minister Palmerston.\nIn the event of war, Canada would have been attacked by the Northern armies. Fortunately, President Lincoln felt that they had all they could do to defeat the South, and Mason and Slidell were freed.\nMeanwhile, Britain had rushed 14,000 troops to British North America. They landed in winter, and marched to Quebec on snowshoes. It must have been a comical sight \u2014 British soldiers trying to wade through Canadian drifts on snowshoes!\nIn the midst of the excitement, a bugaboo of many years raised its ugly head: conscription! The Macdonald-Cartier government called out the militia of 40,000 men. Many of them were farmers from Canada west (Ontario) and turned out with shotguns and pitchforks, confident that any Canadian could lick seven Americans!\nThe government proposed a militia bill providing for compulsory military service to raise an extra 30,000 men. Feelings ran high in French Canada. Why should they fight Britain\u2019s wars? In any case the danger was over.\nWhen the militia bill came up for the vote on May 20, 1862, a bloc of French-Canadian members of the Macdonald-Cartier party voted against it. A new government was formed under John Sandfield Macdonald and Louis Victor Sicotte. It lasted for only one year, then Macdonald-Cartier were returned. Strangely enough, Cartier died in London, England, on May 20, exactly ten years after the defeat of the militia bill.\nTo learn more about the militia bill and Macdonald-Cartier, I\u2019ve found a few places for you to read. There\u2019s the Canadian Encyclopedia, and for a treat, go to the New York Times for an article\nJames Mason (Photo credit: Wikipedia)\nreprint from May 29, 1862.

Today, a wind turbine is able to convert the kinetic energy of the wind into useful electrical energy with the capacity to power entire communities. The collision of air particles with the turbine blades causes the rotor to spin which, through the use of mechanical gears, turns a generator that produces electrical power. The electrical power can either be used on-site or sold back to the grid for redistribution. Wind turbines do not produce harmful greenhouse gas emissions nor air pollution and on a large-scale, they are among the more cost-effective of the various renewable energy technologies.\nFor more information on this technology, visit the Sustainable Techologies Evaluation Programs' Performance Evaluation of Home Scale Wind Turbines page.",

        "raw_content": "Past Negative Time Perspective as a Predictor of Grade Point Average in Occupational Therapy Doctoral Students\nTime perspective is a fundamental dimension in psychological time, dividing human experiences into past, present, and future. Time perspective influences individuals\u2019 functioning in all occupations, including education. Previous research has examined the relationship between time perspective and academic outcomes, but the same research has not been done, to date, with occupational therapy doctoral students. This quantitative, cross-sectional study investigated the relationship between time perspective and academic success in occupational therapy doctoral students across the United States. Data from the Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory (ZTPI) and grade point averages (GPAs) were collected from 50 participants via surveymonkey.com. Past Negative time perspective statistically predicted GPA in the negative direction (p = .001) for students in pre-professional OTD programs, but did not predict GPA for post-professional students. Age, gender, and learning environment did not significantly influence the prediction of GPA in either group. The method and results of this study demonstrate that the ZTPI, an instrument used in the field of psychology, may have value in the profession of occupational therapy and occupational therapy doctoral programs.\nPrecin, P.

        "raw_content": "Orneta \u2026 a small town in Warmia. Small \u2013 because it has a population of about 10 thousand. Located in the triangle M\u0142ynary \u2013 Pieni\u0119\u017cno \u2013 Dobre Miasto. Now, at last it i slowly regaining its former beauty, thanks to the revitalisation of the market square.\nThe city has a long history \u2026 It was established on an old Prussian settlement \u2013 called Wormedythin or Wurmedyten. The mention of the settlement dates back to the 1308th. And in 1312 we have information about Henry, the parson. One of the famous citizens of Orneta \u2013 was Peter of Orneta \u2013 the prosecutor in service of the Teutonic Knights (known also as proctor Peter Wormditt) \u2026\nIn the fourteenth century Orneta became a centre of importance, when in April 1338 Herman of Prague became the bishop of Warmia. he was a former chapter curator in Prague, advisor to King John of Luxembourg (the Blind), moreover, a member of the Rota Court.\nAnd at the same time, the construction of the temple in Orneta started (present-day Church of St. John the Baptist and St. John the Evangelist). Soon the shrine gained special importance. For 9 years has been the Episcopal church \u2013 as Orneta was the site of the bishops of Warmia for those 9 years. Bishops resided in Orneta castle. This is roughly the area of today\u2019s school No. 1 Castle Street.) Today there is nothing left of the castle, except perhaps the walls in the school basement. The castle was demolished by order of the Prussian government in the nineteenth century.\nBishop Herman supposedly brought the builder from Bohemia. However it was \u2013 the church has rich gables and massive western tower.\nOf course, the work lasted even after the death of the founder. In the fifteenth century the main aisle was covered with the vaulted ceilings and also the outside decoration of the church was completed. The uniqueness of the church shows also outside. It is the only such church in Warmia, which has a frieze (the plants and the human figures and heads) on the outer walls.\nInside the church, multiplied presentation of Tutivillus draws attention.\nTwo such open-muzzle beasts can be seen on the vault behind the altar, the others \u2013 on the vaulted ceilings of the main aisle. (Photos here, are unfortunately of poor quality \u2013 the church is rather dark and the camera I had \u2013 did not allow the better quality pictures).\nThe beasts in the vaulted ceilings, maybe being at the same time \u2013 the loudspeakres\u2026\nThere are few theories about these beasts. Some see Tutivillus in them, as referred elsewhere. Others want to see them as air vents, or loudspeakers. I wrote about this theory \u2013 but still have to translate the text\u2026\nAt the end \u2013 few comments of a practical nature:\nIf anyone goes to Orneta \u2013 which I highly recommend, it is essential to go for dumplings (pierogi) served in the restaurant La Strada (the corner of St.. John and Pioneers \u2013 btw. what a terrible name for such a historical town???).\nOrneta sightseeing is primarily detecting the details. Lots of pretty details such as the church gargoyles or those charming in the main market square\u2026\nBut then there also is the Town Hall \u2026 In itself might not attract attention of those who seek the so-called simple and obvious beauty. But considering the fact that the small 18th century turret homes the ave-bell from 1384 (being the oldest in the whole Warmia Region) \u2013 it definitely demands a closer glimpse at this place on the map\u2026\nAnd an important note \u2013 in Orneta there are no public toilets!\n(Written in December 2009)\nTourists looking for this abode will not find it anywhere (the toilet in the Town Hall is closed for visitors), and the so-called Toi-Toi boohts I would NEVER recommend to use!!! Sometimes the stench from them can kill\u2026I recommend the local authorities try using something like this \u2013 and maybe they would think twice\u2026\nTourists would like to visit Orneta, so \u2013 at least in the season it would be wise to think of a public toilet.",

        "raw_content": "Congress Ready to Investigate Bombshell Report that Obama Derailed Hezbollah Investigation for Iran Deal\nSome lawmakers are incensed, but not wholly surprised by this week's bombshell report from Politico that the Obama administration knowingly derailed an anti-Hezbollah investigation because it would have threatened the nuclear deal with Iran.\nThe Drug Enforcement Administration was so convinced that Hezbollah was amassing $1 billion a year from drug and weapons trafficking that it started Project Cassandra in 2008, an under cover investigation, to follow the money. Yet, according to Politico's sources, the Justice and Treasury departments \"delayed, hindered or rejected\" requests from project members as they sought answers.\nRep. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) expected such meddling from the Obama White House, but even he was surprised as to the extent of the interference.\n\"I've long believed that the Obama administration could not have done any more to bend over backwards to appease the Iranian regime, yet news that the Obama administration killed the investigation into a billion dollar drug ring that lined the terrorist group Hezbollah's pockets in order to save its coveted Iran deal may very well take the cake,\" DeSantis said.\n\"Hezbollah is a brutal terrorist group with American blood on its hands and it would be unconscionable for American policy to deliberately empower such a nefarious group,\" he said.\nDeSantis's National Security subcommittee will be \"particularly interested\" in finding the truth, he added. Congressional investigators are currently drafting letters for several government agencies.\nWe've had our suspicions about Obama's Iranian nuclear deal for quite some time. A New York Times Magazine report in May 2016 revealed that the administration went to some length to spin a narrative that we were negotiating with a regime that was becomingly increasingly moderate. We now know that wasn't true and Deputy National Security Adviser Ben Rhodes was simply acting like a \"storyteller.\"",

There\u2019s a lot of truths in there about how the craving for new equipment pushes us into some risky situations to acquire it. I related to this video in a deeper way. Having to hide the shame of running from non-runners. Where they feel I\u2019m wasting my time doing something they don\u2019t understand and constantly tell me how my hips, knees, or joints will all be destroyed before I\u2019m 40 if I keep doing this. It\u2019s similar to how people treat a drug addict, but this is actually healthy.\nWhat\u2019s weird about the people that judge and persecute runners is they are often all out of shape and unhealthy. I\u2019m often asked where I find time to do all this training. I don\u2019t just magically find a left over Rubbermaid container of it in the fridge. I have to go out and make it with the conviction I have to make it happen.\nThe truth of running is that it\u2019s a competition within ourselves where only we can win. There\u2019s always someone else losing to our running habit.

These games had incredible stories with difficult, soul torturing decisions to be made which would affect your entire game.\nNow with Tales from the Borderlands they have taken a slightly different approach. As the subject matter is a lot more light hearted the decisions you make aren\u2019t quite as heart wrenching as previously seen from Telltale. The story and characters however more than make up for this.\nYou play this game as two different main characters, one a disgruntled Hyperion business man and the other a Con woman. Both characters are highly entertaining in there own ways and both have a great side character to go with them.\nI would highly recommend this amusingly, entertaining first episode whether you have played a Borderlands game before or not. Obviously you will enjoy it more if you have played Borderlands 1 and 2 but it is not necessary as there is a quick catch up at the beginning of the game.\nI am incredibly interested and excited to see where this new Tales from the Borderlands is going to go and how it will evolve.

The season will feature Troy Baker as Rhys, Laura Bailey as Fiona, Chris Hardwick as Vaughn, Erin Yvette as Sasha, Patrick Warburton as Vasquez, Nolan North as August, and Dameon Clarke as Handsome Jack.

These are the results!\nIn descending order the Third most popular games engine for Train2Game Students is the CryEngine 3. It was originally developed by German studio, Crytek, as a technology demo for Nvidia and, when the company saw its potential, it was turned into a game. That first game developed using the engine was the first Far Cry.\nThe CryEngine 3 Free SDK, originally called Sandbox Editor, is the current version of the level editor used to create levels for the CryEngine line of game engines by Crytek. Tools are also provided within the software to facilitate scripting, animation, and object creation. It has been included with various Crytek games and is used extensively for modding purposes. The editing style is that of the sandbox concept, with the emphasis on large terrains and a free style of mission programming. The editor can also construct indoor settings.\nRecently the engine has been used to create games such as Crysis 3, Monster Hunter Online and Ryse which will be released on the Xbox One.\nSecond in the poll was the Unity engine. Unity (also called Unity3D) is a cross-platform game engine with a built-in IDE developed by Unity Technologies. Unity is primarily used to create mobile and web games, but can also deploy games to consoles or the PC. The game engine was developed in C/C++, and is able to support code written in C#, JavaScript or Boo. It grew from an OS X supported game development tool in 2005 to the multi-platform game engine that it is today.\nThe Unity Engine is simple to use and as of this month free to publish to mobiles. It is clear why it is popular among Train2Game Students.\nThe Unity Engine has been used to create popular mobile games such as Bad Piggies, Slender: The Arrival and it was used to port Temple Run 2 to Android devices.\nFinally the number one games engine according to Train2Game students is Epic\u2019s Unreal Engine. Although primarily developed for first-person shooters, it has been successfully used in a variety of other genres, including stealth, MMORPGs and other RPGs. With its code written in C++, the Unreal Engine features a high degree of portability and is a tool used by many game developers today. It was first developed in 1998 for Unreal.\nThe third and current generation of the Unreal Engine (UE3) is designed for DirectX (versions 9-11 for Windows and Xbox 360), as well as systems using OpenGL, including the PlayStation 3, OS X, iOS, Android, Stage 3D for Adobe Flash Player 11, JavaScript/WebGL, PlayStation Vita and Wii U. Its renderer supports many advanced techniques including HDRR, per-pixel lighting, and dynamic shadows. It also builds on the tools available in previous versions.\nIn October 2011, the engine was ported to support Adobe Flash Player 11 through the Stage 3D hardware-accelerated APIs. Epic has used this version of the engine for their in-house games. Aggressive licensing of this iteration has garnered a great deal of support from many prominent licensees. Epic has announced that Unreal Engine 3 runs on both Windows 8 and Windows RT.\nThe engine is free to download and has a small charge of $99 to publish from, as long as you don\u2019t make over $50,000 after which Epic will start to take a percentage.\nThe Unreal engine has been used in countless games including The Batman Arkham Games, BioShock Infinite, The Borderlands games, Dishonored, The Gears of War series and countless others.\nIt is quite clear why the Unreal Engine is the most popular engine among Train2Game Students.\nPosted in 2, Android, Developer, game, games, Games Artist and Animator, Games Designer, Games Developer, Games QA Tester, iOS, Microsoft, mobile, Sony, Student, train, train 2 game, Train2Game, Windows 8\t| Tagged 2, Android, Arkham, Asylum, Bad Piggies, Batman, Bioshock Infinite, Borderlands, Borderlands 2, City, CryENGINE 3, Crysis, Crysis 3, Crytek, Dishonored, Epic Games, Far Cry, game, Game Art & Animation, Game Design, Game Development, game engine, Games design, games industry, Gears of War, Gears of War 2, Gears of War 3, iOS, iPhone, Microsoft, mobile gaming, Modding, Monster Hunter Online, Nintendo, Origins, PC gaming, PlayStatioN 3, QA Tester, Ryse, Slender: The Arrival, Temple Run 2, train, Train2Game, UDK, Unity, Unity Technologies, Unity3D, Unreal, Unreal 3, Video Games, Xbox 360, Xbox One\nSteams Workshop, which is used to create content for games such as Team Fortress 2 and Skyrim, has turned one. The user created content has subsequently earned \u201cmillions of dollars\u201d for their creators and Steam themselves.\nThe Greatest Video Game Music 2, the follow-up to the best-selling video game album of all time, will be released worldwide on Nov 6 and has been performed by The London Philharmonic Orchestra. The digital soundtrack album will include 17 new orchestral renditions of video game theme songs like Halo, Batman: Arkham City, Assassin\u2019s Creed: Revelations and the ever-so classic Final Fantasy VII.\nFollowing the success of Borderlands 2, an iOS spin-off has been confirmed with a release date of October 31. The game sees you play as the original 4 vault hunters from the first Borderlands in a wave-based survival game. Additionally, in true Borderlands style you can earn experience and level up your characters, unlocking new skills and abilities with each character having their own set of unique skills and abilities.\nThe first reviews of Hitman: Absolution have surface in Official Playstation Magazine UK and Official Xbox Magazine. Both magazines gave the game 9 out of 10. OPM said \u201cThis is the peak of the series so far\u201d and OXM said \u201cit a triumph of stealth and sandbox design that retains everything that fans have ever loved about the series\u201d.\nWish Studios, a newly formed studio in Brighton, is working with Sony to develop a new IP. While other details about the partnership remain shrouded in secrecy, the status of Wish\u2019s new client will likely serve as a significant help to the recently founded start-up\u2019s presence in the industry.\nA report by Google has said that over 50% of people use their tablet for gaming. The only activity performed more than gaming on a tablet is checking emails. The study, which was commissioned and published by Google, found that 51.5 per cent of its participants used their tablet for gaming in a two-week period.\nThe new dashboard for the Xbox was launched yesterday. It includes an internet explorer app giving the console a browser and the newly launched Xbox music which is similar to that of Spotify. The update also saw the removal of the Twitter and Facebook apps.\nIn an interesting collaboration, a new mod was made for the MMO World of Warcraft which sees the newly introduced pet battles become Pokemon battles. The aptly name WOWkemon sees a short tutorial by Professor Birch describing the Pok\u00e9mon-ified battle screens and ability menus with the familiar sounds, screen effects, and even the font closely resembling the style of the handheld game legend.\nPosted in Developer, game, games, Microsoft, Sony, Student, Train2Game\t| Tagged Assassin's Creed: Revelations, Batman: Arkham City, Borderlands, Borderlands 2, Borderlands: Legends, Facebook, Final Fantasy VII, games industry, Google, Halo, Hitman: Absolution, Internet Explorer, iOS, London Philharmonic Orchestra, Microsoft, mobile gaming, Modding, Nintendo, Official Playstation Magazine, Official Xbox Magazine, PC gaming, PlayStatioN 3, Pokemon, Skyrim, Sony, Square Enix, Steam, tablet, Team Fortress 2, Train2Game, Twitter, UK Games Industry, Valve, Video Games, Wish Studios, World of Warcraft, WOWkemon, Xbox 360, Xbox Dashboard, Xbox Music\nTrain2Game News: Amanda Blatch student diary: Week 2\nSo this week I was required to finish six vectored characters, one of which was a cross-dressing creature which made the end of my week\u2026 interesting. It\u2019s a colourful character that you will all love once the game has been released, I certainly do.\nApart from that I don\u2019t think there is too much to say on the placement front, just designing a set of characters and learning my way around Unity to make sure that the creations I make, cut and rig are fully working in-game ready for the designers.\nUnlike last week there is little else happening but work and pushing to complete my set tasks for the week\u2026 and the frantic playing of the first Borderlands whose ending I failed to complete due to lack of time, just so that I can justify buying myself the second one (which looks AWESOME.). Oh and also\u2026 week-long of 25p apps in the Google play store\u2026 Buying Mass Effect Infiltrator for 25p instead of the \u00a34.33 it normally is?

The title popped out of my head as Tofu and I ploughed West across the high plains, a strong wind 44mph+ in our face, temperature about 36 degrees. There was a \u201cpoint of interest\u201d so I decided to take a look. The wind was so strong, I barely had the strength to get the door open. Besides a line of trucks, this is what I saw.\nWarning signs were flashing across the freeway urging caution because of wind gusts over 45. I did see a terrible accident that had taken place a few minutes before I arrived. Two semi trucks and trailers were tipped over and entangled. Windshields were blown out. Several men had stopped their trucks and were on the scene, doing what they could. My theory of the accident is that one truck was being followed closely. The lead truck was tipped by the wind and lost control. The second truck got caught up in the out of control situation and they both crashed. This is the first crash I have seen on my 32 days on the road.\nWe got to Rock Springs and it was easy to see how it got it\u2019s name. I stopped at a Wells Fargo Bank and took these shots.\nAcross from our Motel is this view. Not too much scenery in the area, so pretty soon I turned my attention to buildings.\nWe went on an exploratory tour to find the old downtown. Wandering around, I found some church buildings.\nAt last I found the downtown.\nThe downtown is not through that gate. If you turn around you are on one of two main streets. The first Street is next to railroad tracks. Here are a few photos.\nThe newest biggest building is a bank.\nThe town strings along I-80 for about five miles. All the new developments are west, Walmart, Pizza Hut, Wendy\u2019s etc..\nMy health is holding up. We got the van washed and the clothing laundered. We\u2019ve crossed the Continental Divide. Tomorrow we\u2019re headed to Utah. It looks like we\u2019ve gotten ahead of the storms.\nPreviousInto the Wild West\nNextOn to I Dee Ho",

        "raw_content": "Pittsburgh Symphony&apos;s renditions of Respighi, Beethoven strong, bold\nMark Kanny | Saturday, Jan. 16, 2016, 5:17 p.m.\nThe Pittsburgh Symphony sounded eager at Friday night's BNY Mellon Grand Classics to make music again after the Christmas break.\nThe performances of three strongly contrasting pieces were led by the excellent, young German conductor Christoph Konig, returning for the third time to the Heinz Hall podium.\nKonig opened with a strong and confident performance of Ottorino Respighi's unfamiliar \u201cBelfagor Overture.\u201d Respighi is best known for \u201cThe Pines of Rome\u201d and other symphonic poems but, though one could hear elements of his familiar style, the \u201cBelfagor Overture\u201d provides its own brand of excitement and rich orchestration.\nThe local premiere of American composer Philip Glass' Violin Concerto No. 2 provided a complete change of pace. It's subtitled \u201cThe American Four Seasons\u201d and was commissioned as a companion piece for Antonio Vivaldi's \u201cThe Four Seasons.\u201d\nGlass does not label any of his concerto's four movements with the name of a season. And while some of his minimalist procedures have some degree of analogy with Vivaldi's baroque idiom, the pieces are worlds apart.\nGlass is a celebrated composer, with his own band of enthusiasts, but one who has had more success in the opera house, or writing for ballet or film, than he has had in the concert hall.\nThe concerto is almost invariably appealing in the moment, usually with a rhythmically urgent accompaniment. Although there are some passages that are boring, there is a bigger problem in this 40-minute piece. Even the best of it, such as the opening of the second movement, soon sounds like a transition to better music that never arrives.\nViolinist Tim Fain gave an ardent performance, playing with plenty of energy, intensity and tonal variety. Konig led an assured accompaniment. The musicians received a standing ovation.\nKonig's most impressive work was in Ludwig van Beethoven's Symphony No. 6 (\u201cPastorale\u201d), which completed the concert. He offered a fresh, sensitive, elegant and totally unmannered interpretation. Beethoven's full textures were uncommonly well balanced.\nThis concert will be repeated at 8 p.m. Saturday and 2:30 p.m. Sunday at Heinz Hall, Downtown. Admission is $20 to $94. Details: 412-392-4900 or pittsburghsymphony.org.\nMark Kanny is classical music critic for the Tribune-Review. He can be reached at 412-320-7877 or mkanny@tribweb.com.",

        "raw_content": "Kevin Gorman: Pitt trying to remain positive in the face of adversity\nKevin Gorman | Saturday, Feb. 2, 2019, 10:24 p.m.\nSyracuse\u2019s Elijah Hughes (center) fouls Pitt\u2019s Malik Ellison in the first half.\nPitt's Terrell Brown fights for a rebound with Syracuse's Tyus Battle and Paschal Chukwuin the second half Saturday, Feb. 2, 2019 at Petersen Events Center.\nPitt head coach Jeff Capel with his head in his hands after play was stopped in the second half Saturday, Feb. 2, 2019 at Petersen Events Center.\nPitt's Terrell Brown dunks past Syracuse's Oshae Brissett in the second half Saturday, Feb. 2, 2019 at Petersen Events Center.\nWhere Jim Boeheim was impressed with Pitt\u2019s freshman guards for the way they aggressively attacked Syracuse\u2019s 2-3 zone, Jeff Capel was learning to live with every mistake the young Panthers made.\nThere were ill-advised passes that led to turnovers, open looks that resulted in missed shots and controversial calls for which the Pitt coach simply had no understanding and received no explanation.\nDespite a second-half scare that saw a 16-point lead shrink to three, Syracuse cruised to a 65-56 victory over Pitt on Saturday night at Petersen Events Center. It marked the fifth consecutive loss for the Panthers in ACC play since beating then-No. 11 Florida State on Jan. 14.\nPitt (12-10, 2-7 ACC) is facing its first stretch of adversity under Capel, who won 10 of his first 13 games before a 25-point loss to North Carolina in the conference opener. The good news is the Panthers only play three more ranked teams in the second half of league play. The bad news is there\u2019s no guarantee they can beat any of them.\n\u201cAdversity is something that you have to go through, especially when you\u2019re building, when you\u2019re starting from the ground up,\u201d Capel said. \u201cYou go through tough times, and you have to stay together. You have to stay connected, and you have to try to stay positive. All three of them are difficult \u2014 and the last one is probably even more difficult \u2014 but you have to do it.\u201d\nCapel is correct, that remaining positive is most problematic for the Panthers. The obvious is they are overmatched in size and depth in the frontcourt, something Syracuse 6-foot-8 forward Oshae Brissett exploited in an 18-point, 12-rebound effort.\nInstead, Capel pointed to statistics that show the difference between winning and losing for these Panthers comes at the free-throw line. The game plan is for point guard Xavier Johnson and shooting guard Trey McGowens to attack the rim and either score or draw fouls, a difficult task for any player against Syracuse\u2019s zone.\n\u201cWe\u2019re trying to make them shoot it from the outside and not let them get into the lane,\u201d Boeheim said. \u201cBut they get into it anyway because they\u2019re driving. They\u2019re good, physical guards, but it\u2019s not easy in this league for freshmen.\u201d\nJohnson and McGowens are finding that out the hard way, especially in getting calls. In the first four ACC games, it worked. McGowens made 36 of 49 free throws, and Johnson made 28 of 33. In the next four games, Johnson was 10 of 14, and McGowens 2 of 4 from the line.\n\u201cWe\u2019re still driving. We\u2019re still attacking the basket,\u201d Capel said. \u201cThese last four teams, they\u2019re good but, man, I don\u2019t think they\u2019ve mastered defense or mastered verticality. That\u2019s just an interesting thing to me, and that\u2019s been a big part of our offense.\u201d\nAgainst Syracuse, Johnson was 9 of 12 \u2014 missing two that could have cut a 39-36 lead to one \u2014 and McGowens was 3 of 3, thanks to a couple of controversial calls. McGowens drew a foul on Brissett with a leg-kick on a 3-pointer at 18:35, which led to his three free throws and complaints to officials from Boeheim and Syracuse assistant Gerry McNamara. Later, McGowens made a long-range 3, but the basket was inexplicably waived off by officials and he was called for an offensive foul.\nBut Boeheim is right. It\u2019s not easy for freshmen in the ACC, nor does the conference make it easy on them. And Pitt is only as good as the two freshmen guards who account for 47.5 percent of their scoring.\nThat Johnson and McGowens combined for 17 points \u2014 13 below their scoring average \u2014 was a big blow for the Panthers, even though Terrell Brown scored 16 points (on seven dunks) and Jared Wilson-Frame added 12 (on four 3-pointers).\nSince scoring 33 against Louisville and 30 against Florida State, McGowens has been held to single digits in four of the past five games.\n\u201cHe just needs to play better, period,\u201d Capel said, \u201cand he will.\u201d\nJohnson shot 2 of 11 from the field, including 1 of 5 on 3s. When the freshman duo isn\u2019t scoring, Pitt tends to struggle on offense. They got two points from their bench, and that was on a layup by Sidy N\u2019Dir with 27 seconds left in the game.\nWhat is impressive is the Panthers continue to stay connected and play together through their adversity.\nMuch to Boeheim\u2019s chagrin, Pitt outscored Syracuse, 34-30, in the second half. The Panthers also won the battle of the boards, 39-35, despite going one stretch with no player on the floor taller than 6-foot-6, and cut a 16-point deficit to within three.\nBut Capel is committed to building Pitt\u2019s program from what he calls Ground Zero, using Virginia\u2019s Tony Bennett as the example of an elite ACC program winning with lesser talent than the McDonald\u2019s All-Americans that litter the rosters of his mentor, Mike Krzyzewski at Duke and rival Roy Williams at North Carolina.\n\u201cI know we want to win,\u201d Capel said, name-dropping Duke superstars. \u201cWe\u2019re going through a lot. We have to rely on freshman, and freshmen hit a wall. We have regular freshmen, and they\u2019re really good but not Zion. They\u2019re not RJ. They\u2019re not Bagley or Carter or Tatum or those guys that are like super-human. When they hit a wall, they hit a wall. And we\u2019re going through that. We have to help them get through it.\u201d\nCapel has no choice but to stay positive, knowing that he\u2019s building a Pitt program that has nowhere to go but up \u2013 even if the Panthers are trending in the opposite direction.",

Like how there's a country called 'Turkey'.\"\n\u2014 Walter, The Muppets\nThis is when someone, usually The Ditz or the Cloudcuckoolander, is ignorant, confused, or ill-informed enough to lump \"things that are well known to be real\" in with \"things that are made up.\" This is often applied to ethnic groups, but can also include historical characters, countries and animals.\nEssentially, Arbitrary Skepticism applied to real things, likely by someone who Cannot Tell Fiction from Reality, an in-universe occurrence of Aluminum Christmas Trees. A Sub-Trope of Reality Is Unrealistic.\nA Sister Trope to Global Ignorance, Flat-Earth Atheist.\nCompare Legend Fades to Myth, when something that was once considered common knowledge is distorted by the passage of time to the point that it can no longer be believed with 100% certainty. Contrast Faeries Don't Believe in Humans, Either. Not to be confused with Canada Does Not Exist.\nIn Azumanga Daioh, Tomo believed reindeer didn't exist. note This can be Truth in Television as in the Santa Claus mythos, Santa's sleigh is powered by flying reindeer. Meanwhile, outside the countries they live in, \"real\" reindeer are not commonly featured in non-Christmas media, or in zoos, etc. When they are, they tend to be called by their other name: caribou (To be exact; North American and Eurasian reindeer are the same species, but North American reindeer are called caribou (from Mi'kmaq qalipu through French) a lot of the time, and Eurasian reindeer are always called reindeer). From this, many Santa-believing children assume that \"reindeer\" means a magical deer that can fly, so belief in them eventually goes out the same window as belief in Santa. (Flying caribou, we regret to say, almost certainly are fantasy.) It also doesn't help that until fairly recently, Santa's \"reindeer\" were depicted as flying roe deer or white-tailed deer, rather than caribou. These depictions, in some cases themselves due to the Aluminum Christmas Trees phenomenon, are semi-examples of Call a Smeerp a \"Rabbit\".Naturally, the way Tomo's disbelief in reindeer came up is that the girls had just been discussing Santa. Kagura then asks if reindeer are real, and Tomo proceeds to laugh at her and say they don't exist.\nIn an early 90s story, while protecting the son of a Madripoor mafia boss, Wolverine distracts the kid with the tale of a feral child raised by wolverines in snowy Canada.note It was implied to the reader that this was Wolverine's own youth, although it was retconned later. The boy doesn't know what snow is, and after an explanation, he refuses to believe it is a real thing.\nKnights of the Dinner Table: Weird Pete doesn't believe that Papua New Guinea is a real country.\nThe comic book continuation of Invader Zim by Oni Press began with a 0-numbered issue presented as an issue of TruthShrieker Magazine. One article about an alleged haunted bee sighting features quotes from different people about whether or not the sighting is real, with The Letter M stating that he doesn't believe in bees.\nIn Harry Potter and the Nightmares of Futures Past, Ron pokes fun at Luna Lovegood for having an \"imaginary creature\" as her Patronus. Luna's patronus was a duck-billed platypus. When Hermione tells Ron that the duck-billed platypus is a real animal, he flatly refuses to believe her. note In fairness to Ron, scientists in England had the exact same reaction when the platypus was first described to them.\nUltra Fast Pony takes place in a weird version of Equestria where some human ethnicities, like blacks and the Irish, undeniably exist. Nevertheless, the episode \"Granny Smith Is Mean\" gives us the line:\nFilthy Rich: And that was when I figured out, Mexicans aren't even real. So you don't have to be afraid anymore, children.\nAnd \"Pirate Shipping\" has:\nSweetie Belle: Yeah, Scootaloo, the gays and the Mexicans don't exist.\nA running gag in Roommates, a Five Nights at Freddy's fanfic by The Weaver, is that nobody has ever heard of France or anything French, reacting with bafflement to images of \"some kind of A-shaped building\" and a special kind of toast. It makes communicating with one of the Freddys, who has suffered aphasia and now only speaks Frenchnote In the original context, his animatronic was set to the wrong default speaking language....difficult.\nIn Chasing the Rainbow, ponies believe tht lions are fictional.\nHal in Megamind says this while mocking Roxanne's idealism: \"There is no Easter Bunny, there is no Tooth Fairy, and there is no Queen of England!\" note He's technically right: There hasn't been a monarch of England since the Acts of Union 1707 united England and Scotland to form Great Britain. Currently, the title is Queen of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.\nHappy Feet Two: Will the Krill believes \"black holes\" (whales, actually) are myths to keep people in the swarm.\nA Fairly Odd Christmas: Denzel Crocker didn't believe in North Pole or polar bears before going there and being chased by one. And, yes, this is coming from someone who already believes in Fairy Godparents and Santa Claus.\nCoco: As Miguel is being escorted to the Land of the Dead with some of his ancestors, he remarks that he always thought the Land of the Dead was just a legend.\nMiguel: I thought it might have been one of those made-up things that adults tell kids, like... vitamins.\nT\u00eda Victoria: Miguel, vitamins are a real thing.\nMiguel: Well, now I'm thinking maybe they could be.\nThe Film Crew: Kevin Murphy believes in many different fantasy lands, but claims that Spain is a myth.\nThe Muppets: \"I think that's just an internet rumour. Like that there's a country called Turkey.\"\nSomewhat averted in Look Who's Talking Too. Baby Mikey is sitting awake at night scared. He lists various things he's worried about, and that they aren't real. This includes monsters, ghosts, witches, and dinosaurs. He knows that one of them used to be real, but can't remember which. Justified, since he is a baby.\nIn The King and I, the kids have trouble believing that snow is a real thing, until their father the King confirms that it is real. Truth in Television, as the Thai language doesn't even have a word for 'frozen' and in the time frame of the setting uneducated Thais would be likely to believe it was made up. The snow subplot is based on an anecdote of Anna Leonowens that the royal children refused to believe snow was real until she asked the King to give a guest lecture on it.\nIn Back to the Future Goldie Wilson was working as a simple busboy in a diner, and when he gets the idea to be mayor, the owner scoffs at the idea of a \"colored mayor.\" There had been a number of African American mayors prior to the film's story line, but they numbered less than a half dozen, and were in charge of small rural towns, it was not until the 1960s' that an African American was elected mayor in a city. note Carl Stokes in Cleveland (1967), in case you're curious.\nThe documentary Life, Animated relates the real-life story of child with High-Functioning Autism who basically used the Disney Animated Canon as a Translator Buddy between himself and the rest of the world. At the time the movie was made, the child had become an adult in a relationship, and his older brother was interviewed wondering how he's supposed to use Disney movies to give him The Talk. At some point he mentions the concept of \"Disney Porn\" as if he finds it unlikely to exist. Two words: Rule 34.\nA Brick Joke in Shaun of the Dead is an argument between Shaun and Ed whether or not the rifle at the Winchester is real. The owner says it is, but he also says dogs can't look up. After the rifle fires, proving Ed right...\nShaun: Alright. But dogs can look up!\nCatherine Called Birdy: Birdy's uncle comes back from the Crusades and tells them about all the wonderful things he's seen, like gryphons and unicorns and something called \"an elephant, with a tail at each end\". Birdy thinks he's making that last one up.\nIn A Series of Unfortunate Events, when Count Olaf meets Dewey Denouement in Book the Twelfth, he is surprised he isn't just a legendary figure like unicorns or Giuseppe Verdi.\nIn more than one Daniel Pinkwater novel, as a throwaway joke, a character claims that Los Angeles does not exist.\nIn the book The Enormous Egg (wherein a kid in rural New Hampshire finds one of his family's chickens laid a dinosaur egg), one of Nate's friends says that dinosaurs never existed - some guys found some big bones and made up stories about them.\nIn the Piers Anthony story \"Possible To Rue\", a young boy's pleas for a pet pegasus leads his father to look the animal up in the encyclopedia and show that they're mythical. So are unicorns. To the father's astonishment, so are zebras, mules, and even horses, which he distinctly remembers placing bets on. It's implied that, by denying zebras are real to avoid having to buy one, the father has inadvertently begun erasing these creatures from the universe.\nIn Pamela Dean's The Secret Country, five children have made up a fairytale world where magic is real. They argue as to whether it's proper to have a Secret Country villain who doesn't believe in magic. Patrick, a materialist, says that would be as foolish as someone in the real world not believing in the law of gravity. His smartass sister Ellen promptly declares that she doesn't believe in the law of gravity. When they are in the real Secret Country, they find this man really doesn't believe in magic, he thinks it's all tricks and illusions.\nDave Barry Slept Here, in the chapter on World War I, claims that that Serbia \"did not, technically, exist,\" even at the time that Austro-Hungary made the mistake of trying to invade it.\nIn The Silver Chair, the Lady of the Green Kirtle claims not to believe in lions or any other aspect of the outside world. She's lying, but she nearly bewitches the overlanders into agreeing with her. (This is a typical C. S. Lewis allegory; in order to describe Narnia to the Lady, they have to do so in terms of things that she does accept the existence of, allowing her to dismiss it with \"So you made up a bigger version of a cat, and called it a lion\", in the same way as heaven can only be described in terms of the mortal world.)\nIn The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, Arthur Dent is forced to deal with the reality of the Earth having been destroyed by the Vogon Constructor Fleet.\nNew York has gone. No reaction. He\u0092d never seriously believed it existed anyway.\nJohn Hodgman's The Areas of My Expertise has a running gag that Chicago is a myth, mostly as a joke on how very New York the author's sensibilities are. Revisited in the follow-up That Is All, when the mythical city rises at last from the swamp during the End Times of 2012.\nHumorist Robert Benchley wrote an article called \"Movie Boners\" (back then, \"boner\" meant \"mistake\") where he listed various mistakes from (obviously fictitious) movies. One example was \"In the picture called 'Dr. Tanner Can't Eat' there is a scene laid in Budapest. There is no such place as Budapest.\" A reader failed to get the joke and wrote a letter to Benchley, criticizing him for not knowing that Budapest is the capital of Hungary. So Benchley wrote another article, \"What - No Budapest?\", where he asserted: \"There is no such place as Budapest. Perhaps you are thinking of Bucharest, and there is no such place as Bucharest, either.\"\nIn The Last Continent there's been a millennia-long drought in FourEcks. Some of the settlers have grandparents who say that in The Old Country water used to fall out of the sky, but everyone who grew up there thinks that's ridiculous.\nIn the Star Wars Expanded Universe book Med Star I: Battle Surgeons cruel, arrogant martial artist Phow Ji refuses to believe in the Force, even when Barriss levitates something using telekinesis right in front of his face, claiming it's just a trick. This disbelief (plus a lot of his contempt towards Jedi) stems from one Jedi playing fair in a martial arts contest by not using the Force, allowing Ji to beat him.\nKate Shugak: In Less Than a Treason, Kate encounters a thug who thinks that wolves are extinct and don't exist anywhere outside of Disney films. He is considerably shocked when his partner is attacked by one.\nThe Good Soldier \u008avejk mentions an old priest, who learned that Saint Augustine of Hippo denied the existence of antipodesnote Actually, he wrote that there was no proof other continents existed or were reachable and even called round Earth a contested hypothesis; from that he merely concluded to seek City of God elsewhere. and started harrassing his servant woman, who was getting money from a son in Australia. After he damned her in church he was sent to a nuthouse.\nIsaac Asimov's \"Victory Unintentional\": The Jovians insist that there aren't any inner planets (like Earth), so Jupiter and its moons are the closest thing to the sun. This is part of how Isaac Asimov shows their mental inflexibility.\nIn a Christmas Episode of The Middle, Brick explains that Eskimos know how to put a fire in an igloo, only for Axl to snap that back that Eskimos aren't real, but are made-up creatures like leprechauns.\nThere's a Bones episode involving the search for a rumored pirate treasure. Zack expresses surprise that Hodgins believes in pirates, and Hodgins snarks back that they're not Santa.\nIn The Office (US), Kevin thinks that mummies are fictitious monsters from the horror genre, and expresses surprise and fear when people tell him that they exist and there are some in a local museum.\nIn Episodes, a group of Hollywood TV executives discuss a potential premise for their network's vampire style show. Many ideas are mentioned, culminating in Myra recommending the paranormal creatures in their show should be Gypsies. She recommends it twice, before somebody tells her that Gypsies are real.\nIn Scorpion, Ray books the team on a flight to San Jose, Costa Rica, instead of San Jose, California, because he says that San Jose, CA is just a myth; it isn't real, like Tallahassee. When told that that's a real place, too, he doesn't believe it.\nIn Parks and Recreation, April's job as secretary is to prevent people from meeting Ron. Unfortunately, she schedules all of his meetings for March 31st, under the mistaken belief that \"March 31st\" isn't a real date.\nWill & Grace:\nSemi-example, Karen about an ex-gay group:\nKaren: Honey, this is a cult! Yeah! Like the Moonies or the homeless.\nShe later repeats this line to Grace about Alcoholics Anonymous, again referencing the Moonies, but this time adding \"the homosexuals or the elderly.\"\nOn an episode, Robin believed that the North Pole and reindeer were made up. This is especially weird considering where she's from.note Reindeer are native to Canada (though usually called caribou - the term reindeer is used for the Scandinavian and Siberian populations), and the magnetic north pole is under the Canadian Northern Archipelago. The geographical North Pole is claimed by several countries including Canada, US, Norway, Denmark, and Russia.\nIn a later episode, Robin's boyfriend Nick reveals that he thought gypsies \"were just made up, like goblins, or trolls, or dolphins.\"\nPretty common on Community due to the various nut jobs involved.\nWhen Chang announces his plan to set fire to the school, he scoffs at how it'll be dangerous: \"Fire can't go through walls!

He thinks there's a place called New Mexico!\"\nIn Zoey 101, Michael tries to convince Chase that reindeer aren't real.\nIn Friends:\nJoey and Chandler are both interested in a visiting Dutch woman. Chandler gets an edge by \"guessing\" that Dutch people come from somewhere near the Netherlands (the place they really come from). Joey responds, \"Nice try. See, the Netherlands are this make-believe place where Peter Pan and Tinkerbell come from\" , apparently having confused the Netherlands with Neverland.\nWhen Chandler claims that he's moving to Yemen to get rid of Janice, Joey says \"'Yemen,' that actually sounds like a real country!\"\nWhen Ross becomes obsessed with naming all 50 states, Joey looks at his list and says: \"First of all, Utah? Dude, you can't just make stuff up!\" And that one comes after Joey lists 56 states, including New England and South Oregon.\nJoey: How can New England not be a state? They have a sports team!\nChandler: Does \"South Oregon\" have a sports team?\n(Joey glares at Chandler for a second, then scratches it off his list.)\nAnd the one when Joey and Chandler are fighting over the name of Phoebe's baby.\nJoey: Oh! Oh-oh, you gotta pick Joey! I mean, name one famous person named Chandler.\nChandler: Raymond Chandler.\nJoey: Someone you didn't make up!\nDuring an episode of My Name Is Earl, Randy tries to make a list of famous rich people he and his brother could borrow from, like The Beverly Hillbillies. Earl points out that they're fictional TV characters, \"just like Richie Rich and Donald Trump\".\nIn Boy Meets World, when Mr. Feeny starts lecturing about the Hutus and the Tutsis, Cory and Shawn find the peoples' names so weird that they are convinced he can't be talking about real people and has run out of real subjects and is now making it up.\nOn the Australian version of The Unbelievable Truth, Shane Jacobson was giving a lecture on Vikings when Sam Simmons claimed that he'd always thought Vikings were mythical.\nIn Power Rangers Ninja Storm, the Monster of the Week Boxing Bop-a-roo had a bad case of Sesquipedalian Loquaciousness, which annoyed the rest of the villains.

Oliver asks him to name one holier, and responds to Yom Kippur with, \"Oh, now you're just making up words.\"\nIn one episode of 30 Rock, Tracy believes that Diabetes is a white myth, \"Like Larry Bird, or Colorado.\" In another episode, his entourage isn't there when he needs them because one of them had to go to the optometrist, and his response is, \"Making up words won't save you!\"\nIn an episode of Scrubs, one of the interns is mentioned to be in an elaborate game involving a bar trivia machine. He's later seen arguing about his performance. \"There's no way there was a president named Garfield!\"\nIn The IT Crowd, Mr Reynholm is interviewed. His favorite non-fictional character is Sherlock Holmes. When he's told that Sherlock is fictional, he tells the interviewer to check her facts. She decides to ask him who his favorite fictional character is, which turns out to be The Elephant Man.\nCame up on an episode of the Australian version of Family Feud, when a contestant admitted she had once believed that flamingos were mythical until she saw them on one of David Attenborough's shows.

When Rob informed him otherwise, he reacted with genuine surprise, \"It is?? Then why the %*(# DON'T WE LIVE THERE?\"\nThere's also the time after Satchel's game show, where Bucky states how he believes the Harry Potter books to be lies. When Rob questions whether he is \"breaking the story that magic doesn't exist,\" Bucky responds with \"What? No, magic exists, I saw a thing on TV. But trains?... Owls?... ENGLAND? Nice try, I'm not buyin' it.\" Cue two-hour argument between Rob and Bucky over the existence of England (Canada and Greece, too).\nIn a later strip, Bucky again claims that Owls are a myth, like Abominable Snowmen or Southern Democrats.\nPeanuts: Lucy Van Pelt once spent several strips mocking Charlie Brown for telling her that birds fly south for the winter: \"In all my life, Charlie Brown, I have never met anyone with an imagination like yours!\" When Chuck insisted, and also added that they fly north during the summer, Lucy sarcastically retorted that they must fly east during the spring and west during the fall.

Think of all the Americans you've heard of: John Wayne, Demi Moore; they're all actors!\nIn the Cabin Pressure episode \"Timbuktu\", Mr. Birling pays MJN Air to take him to the eponymous city so that he can prove to his wife that it exists.

It's possible he just misunderstood the question, rather than believing Eva Peron was fictional.\nInvoked in Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead, when Rosencrantz claims not to believe in England, meaning he has no mental picture of what's going to happen once they get there, and Guildenstern sarcastically replies \"Just a conspiracy of cartographers, you mean?\" Later they have the same exchange in reverse.\nIn the Fable of the Swan Tie-In Novel for Chuubo's Marvelous Wish-Granting Engine, everyone is convinced Russia isn't a real place, leading to an incredibly awkward scene where Jasmine tries to explain this to Natalia, who is Russian.\nIn Team Fortress 2, the Soldier may taunt the Demoman by saying \"Scotland is not a real country!

        "raw_content": "Tags: Nintendo Switch, Pok\u00e9mon\nPok\u00e9mon is getting another mainline game in 2019 for the Nintendo Switch. It is possible that fans have stumbled on the name and region or location for this 8th generation Pok\u00e9mon game.\nThis is the beginning of 2019 so it is officially the year of the new Pok\u00e9mon which is confirmed to release later this year. There are no details available for it. New fan theory now speculates that the region that will be used as an inspiration for the upcoming game is the United Kingdom.\nSo how exactly does this theory lineup and offer enough credit to make it legitimate? This discovery was made in Pok\u00e9mon Let\u2019s Go that was recently released for the Nintendo Switch. In this game, you can see a calendar that seems to resemble the United Kingdom. The speculation for the name is unlikely but fans are calling it Pok\u00e9mon Crown or Pok\u00e9mon Sceptre.\nThis seems to be pretty much in line with how the rest of the games in the series have teased a region for the upcoming games. In Pok\u00e9mon X/Y and Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire, you were able to see references to the Alola region in a calendar, which ended up the region forPok\u00e9mon Sun/Moon. The same pattern is repeating with Pokemon Let\u2019s Go showing a calendar that resembles the United Kingdom, as suggested by Twitter user ShingStar5022.\nThis further lines up with the recent Pok\u00e9mon marketing blitz that has prominently feature a crown and scepter, which can be linked to the British royal family. There were two tweets, in particular, one from the official account, and the other from a Game Freak artist, that featured the crown.\nIf you need to see more evidence, there was the United Kingdom as a region in the new Pokemon anime as discovered by this YouTuber RuffledRowlit in his theory for the 8th generation Pok\u00e9mon. The evidence so far does make it a strong case that the United Kingdom.\nSource (Matome)\n[Rumor] Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 Is Out This Year With MW2 Remastered Campaign",

        "raw_content": "Deliveries Begin for World\u2019s Fastest Single Engine Aircraft\nINDEPENDENCE, Kan., July 1, 2013- Cessna Aircraft Company, a Textron Inc. (NYSE: TXT) company last week delivered the first production units of the Cessna TTx to customers following a ceremony at the Cessna facility in Independence, Kan. The TTx holds the distinction of being the world\u2019s fastest commercially produced and certified fixed-gear single engine aircraft.\n\u201cThe customers will now find out what we know, that the TTx is an aircraft which will wow pilots with its performance, and surprise passengers with its comfort,\u201d said Brian Steele, business leader for the Cessna TTx. \u201cEverything about it is fun, fast and sporty, while at the same time intuitive and comfortable. The G2000 avionics are so advanced and at the same time familiar. The interior appointments add a refined touch of class to the overall TTx experience.\u201d\nA high performance, all-composite aircraft, the TTx is designed for advanced pilots with advanced technology and greater comfort in mind. The leather-wrapped side-stick control and additional horsepower provide advanced TTx pilots with speed and performance close to that of a jet. The speed comes with style, as the fit and finish of the TTx has been likened to detailing reminiscent of a luxury sports car interior.\nOne of the customers accepting delivery is David Barnes, Chief Executive Officer of Watermark Retirement Communities. Barnes said he plans on using his TTx to travel between the 32 Watermark properties throughout the country. Representatives from Pacific Air Center (PAC) were on hand to assist with the event. PAC is a Cessna authorized sales center covering the southwest United States, with bases in Long Beach, Calif., and Scottsdale, Ariz.\nProduction line flow of the TTx was announced in April of 2012 at the Sun \u2018n Fun International Fly-In and Expo in Lakeland, Fla. The aircraft has a top speed of 235 ktas (270 miles per hour), an operating ceiling of 25,000 feet and an optional Flight into Known Icing (FIKI) system, enabling pilots to file flight plans allowing for varying weather conditions. The TTx is the first aircraft to be equipped with the Garmin G2000 avionics system which features a glass cockpit with dual 14.1 inch high definition displays and touch screen controls.\n\u201cCessna has a versatile, reliable workhorse in the 208 and the world\u2019s dominant flight trainer in the 172, so it is rewarding to see an aircraft as unique and distinctive as the TTx leave the Cessna hangar to round out our single engine offerings,\u201d said Jodi Noah, Cessna senior vice president of single engine/propeller aircraft. \u201cIn true Cessna fashion, the teams involved in delivering the TTx to the marketplace have placed quality and performance as top priorities, and they delivered.\u201d\nCessna provides additional training for pilots in the TTx, due to the additional horsepower and capabilities of the aircraft. Learn more about the TTx at Cessna.com.\nB-roll footage of the TTx can be viewed and downloaded here.\nPhotos of the delivery:",

The teens were bailed out of jail and will be requested to return to the police station for questioning as the investigation furthers.\nPolice said they were alerted on Friday by parents that two 17-year old male teens were missing and that it was believed they were possibly attempting to travel to Syria. Once an investigation was opened it was found that they were travelling with another 19-year-old male.\nOnce caught in Turkey, they were detained and flown back to London on Saturday where they were arrested.\nThese arrested come on the tails of three teen girls from London, Kadiza Sultana, Shamima Begum and Amira Abase, running away to become \"Jihadi brides\" to Islamic State fighters in Iraq. Authorities in Turkey stated that they were not notified in time about the girls in order to stop them from crossing the border. Police in London have stated that the girls will not be charged with Terrorism if they return home.\nIt is estimated that nearly 700 UK citizens have travelled to Syria or to Iraq to join militant groups. Officials have stated that Islamic extremists use social media to recruit teens and get them to travel to Syria in order to join the radical organisations.\nThis has increased tensions that there will be attacks on UK soil if these citizens return home after being radicalized by the Islamic State militants.\nTurkey has faced widespread criticism for not controlling their southeastern borders, yet they have issued more than 13,000 travel bans and deported nearly 2000 people who were under suspicion of wanting to travel to Syria. They have also stepped up to stop foreign nationals from crossing into Syria.\nA high-ranking Turkish official stated,\" Turkey is doing all that it can to stop the passage into Syria, but there has to be cooperation. This operation shows what can be achieved when there is cooperation.\"\nCounter-terrorism police are advising parents to speak to their teens about how they feel about the war and to monitor their social media activity closely.",

In the meantime, a short teaser video has been released to keep us in suspense until the camouflage is finally dropped from the 'world\u2019s first super SUV'.\nThe 30-second clip shows the Urus tackling sand dunes at high speeds, and it also reveals some of the car's secrets. For example, we get to see the selector for the Anima (Adaptive Network Intelligence Management) system inherited from the Huracan and Aventador. In addition, the high-performance SUV will feature a Sabbia driving mode along with five other selectable modes: Strada, Sport, Corsa, Terra and Neve \u2013 Street, Sport, Track, Off-road and Snow. Sabbia, as we see from the video, stands for Sand.\nLamborghini Urus Spied At Nurburgring For First Time\nA spiritual successor to the LM002 model of the 1980s, the Urus has a big job to do \u2013 the Italian supercar maker has made a major investment in new factory facilities for the car, and it has high hopes the Urus will double the company\u2019s sales by 2019 when the factory in Sant\u2019Agata is expected to push out a total of about 7,000 units, including the Huracan and Aventador.\nFrom the little info we have right now about the technical specifications, the Urus is set to use a 4-litre twin-turbo V8 engine with 650bhp. The platform isn't all-new, it's an adaptation of the Volkswagen Group\u2019s MLB Evo that has underpinned the Audi Q7, Porsche Cayenne and Bentley Bentayga, with the more humble VW Touareg set to make use of the technology for its next-generation model in 2018.\nAt the 0:12 mark, we also briefly get to see the Urus will have four-wheel steering, which makes perfect sense considering the Cayenne has it as well, along with the Aventador S. All will be revealed in less than a month, so the wait is almost over.\nGallery: Lamborghini Urus Nurburgring Spy Photos\nLamborghini Urus carbon fibre fuel cap\nCrashed Lamborghini Urus for Sale\n2019 Lamborghini Urus: First Drive\nLamborghini Urus by Vorsteiner\nTurquoise Chrome Lamborghini Urus",

        "title": "Party Like a Fitzgerald in Paris | Untapped Cities",
        "raw_content": "Party Like a Fitzgerald in Paris\nalexandra bregman 05/07/2013 Guides, Paris\nThe Jazz Age is undeniably an enduring \u00e9poque in literature, with author F. Scott Fitzgerald successfully chronicling a now iconic period of lush festivity and overall excess. He traveled often, but his most glorious years were arguably spent in Paris, where he lived with his wife Zelda from 1924 to 1931.\nThough Fitzgerald\u2019s antics have become synonymous with his lifetime, copious drinking, strolling, and intellectual hobnobbing can easily be implemented in Paris today\u2014the good, the bad, and the over-the-top! Let\u2019s take a step back and look at exactly how to recreate the lifestyle and mindset of F. Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald.\n1. Hotel Saint James & Albany 202, rue de Rivoli, 75001 Paris, + 33 (0)1 44 58 43 21. The Fitzgeralds first visited Paris in the spring of 1921 and stayed at Hotel Saint James & Albany. The couple decided to travel when they learned Zelda was pregnant that May, but they were not typical homemakers by any means. In her piece, F. Scott Fitzergerald: American Expatriate of the Lost Generation, Sarah Krauss reports that the Scott and Zelda were kicked out of the hotel for eccentric misbehavior, ultimately finding Paris very lonely with no friends in the city. Despite their antics (or perhaps due to them), the hotel still functions today, so you too could visit a hotel in a friendless city. Maybe don\u2019t leave what Krauss calls a \u201cpungent goatskin\u201d in the room though, or tie the elevator to the floor so you don\u2019t have to wait for it\u2014unless you want to be thrown out, and maybe arrested, as only a truly fearless Jazz Age enthusiast would do.\n2. L\u2019Opera Garnier\nThe Fitzgeralds returned to Paris in 1924 for a second trip, and stayed at the Hotel des Deux Mondes on rue de l\u2019Opera. While the hotel closed in 1940, the very-nearby, historic Opera Garnier is still a tourist destination. Tours are available, as are tickets to ongoing performances. Whether the Fitzgeralds visited the Opera itself is not clearly documented, but feel free to view the beautiful showings! That the second trip was housed at the \u2018Hotel of Two Worlds\u2019 holds poetic significance, in that the travelers were fully straddling two cities and cultures. As the Fitzgeralds grew more comfortable with Paris, the two worlds fused into their own, individualized Jazz Age.\n3. Auberge de Venise, 10 rue Delambre, 75014 Paris, +33 (0)1 43 35 43 09 Auberge de Venise, or Venice Hostel as it translates, may seem like a nondescript Italian restaurant chain at first glance (with a pretty fantastic website). But did you know that it is located in the same place as the infamous Dingo Bar, where F. Scott Fitzgerald met Ernest Hemingway in 1925? Eat some pizza and soak up the aura! Who knows? Maybe you\u2019ll run into a friend there, you\u2019ll both get famous, and in a hundred years, people will be flocking to eat the same spaghetti.\n4. Arc de Triomphe and Champs Elys\u00e9es The facts of the legend aren\u2019t entirely clear, but Art Info recounts that flushed with trademark inebriation, F. Scott Fitzgerald left his apartment at In May 1925, while living in an apartment at 14 Rue de Tilsitt, stole a baker\u2019s bicycle and baguette, and pedaled down the Champs Elys\u00e9es. We suggest finding a Monoprix (and there is indeed a Monoprix on the Champs Elys\u00e9es), purchasing the cheapest possible wine and baguette, and renting a v\u00e9lib right outside the Etoile metro stop for the full effect.\n5. Centre Jean Favreau, 187 Rue Saint-Jacques, 75005 Paris, +33 (0)1 43 29 31 40\nBy 1930, even the notorious Fitzgeralds were exhausted from their extreme lifestyle. Zelda Fitzgerald, who had a history of mental illness in her family, suffered her a major breakdown, and entered a mental hospital outside Paris called MalMaison. The following year, a conglomeration of French psychoanalysts formed the Soci\u00e9t\u00e9 Psychanalytique de Paris. Their current center is listed as Centre Jean Favreau.\nThe center is definitely not a tourist destination for the sights, sounds, and festivities of a French getaway. However, to party like a Fitzgerald was not all fun and games. Scott had a long and open struggle with alcohol, as he publicized in the New Yorker after he\u2019d left Paris in 1929, and Zelda spent the last years of her life institutionalized. Noting Centre Jean Favreau serves a tragic homage to the dangers of over-the-top festivities.\n6. Harry\u2019s Bar, 5 Rue Daunou street, 75002 Paris, +33 (0)1 42 61 71 14\nHarry\u2019s Bar is as American as a macaron is French\u2014it just happens to be in Paris. Opened on Thanksgiving Day in 1911, the structure was literally dismantled and rebuilt from New York to Paris. In fact, it was originally called New York Bar. The name was changed when Harry MacElhone took over the bar in 1911, and the website boasts the Bloody Mary was first created on site in 1921. Although the origins of the cocktail have been hotly debated, needless to say, the bar was a hangout for Fitzgerald and Ernest Hemingway alike. Betting on the American presidential elections has been a tradition at Harry\u2019s Bar since 1924.\nernest hemingway, F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Ritz\nThe NY Historical Society Celebrates 75 Years of Madeline with Her \u201cNew York Story\u201d\nThe Hemingway Map of Paris\nIN PICTURES: The Closing of The Hemingway Bar at The Ritz\nGayla 05/21/2013 4:18am Reply\nGreat information here on the histories of Parisian establishments. Paris is a favorite destination and always it\u2019s interesting for me to see it with new perspective. I imagine it as being a more enticing and intriguing city during the Jazz Age, but that\u2019s likely romanticizing it just a bit.\nMichael 05/19/2013 8:42pm Reply\nOne more place to check out is \u201cPolidor\u201d on 41 rue Monsieur-le-Prince right up the hill from the Od\u00e9on metro stop. This is where Hemingway and Fitzgerald frequently met and had drinks and is in fact the same restaurant/bar used in Midnight in Paris. Beware they don\u2019t take credit cards, the food isn\u2019t amazing (not terrible either) but the decor hasn\u2019t changed in 100 years. It\u2019s like being in an old world historic Paris right out of the lost generation years\nJayaram 05/14/2013 7:13am Reply\nA very well written article, but for the photo of the erstwhile Hemingway Bar in the Ritz, and the hotel being mentioned as well.",

I\u2019ll wait\u2026\nJohn Mayer \u2013 Gravity\nToday, as I\u2019m dragging ass as a consequence of indulging in ONE beer last night (Oh, Protospace I love you, but your lovely beer does not love me!) and I\u2019m particularly aware of the limits my physical reality are pushing down on me (i.e. I feel like crap) I figure it\u2019s as good a time as any to come clean on my slug-girl secret life.\n@ajproc said in a tweet a few weeks ago about no longer trying to fit a square peg life in a round hole world (apologies Art, that is likely a very loose paraphrase). Something in that stuck with me, and I\u2019ve been thinking a lot about my tendency to pass for normal. Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ta da! first time ever I\u2019ve publicly referred to my particular flavour of fucked up health) is funny that way \u2013 so long as I\u2019m not burnt out exhausted and overstimulated, when I\u2019m out and about there\u2019s no real visible indications of my disability (gack, I hate that word \u2013 shall we use fuckedupitude instead?).\nBut the truth is, I\u2019ve got a heaping pile of fuckedupitude I\u2019ve got to deal with on a daily basis \u2013 and being as dealing with that, and dealing with maybe getting to be less fucked up, or building a better life within my fuckedupitudeness is a good portion of what\u2019s going on in this 100 day project, I may as well be out with it.\nI\u2019m not normal, my life isn\u2019t normal (there could of course be a hearty debate about what constitutes \u201cnormal\u201d but I\u2019m not going there right now). When I first started with samba (and was on an upswing with my health) I thought: here\u2019s a whole circle of people who don\u2019t know me, don\u2019t know my history, don\u2019t know I\u2019ve been ill \u2013 here\u2019s my chance to have a social sphere where my fuckedupitudeness (gosh I\u2019m really starting to enjoy that word) doesn\u2019t have any sway. Well I hit a humdinger of a relapse after that, and my friends at samba have seen me at my worst, and seen me through some bloody awful crises. A mixed bag of humiliation for the failure to pass as normal, and deep gratitude for the people who showed an incredible amount of class and compassion when I needed it.\nAnd here I am again on the upswing (and terrified of the downfall \u2013 I\u2019m sure you\u2019ll get to read more on that later, \u2019cause it\u2019s definitely in the top three of my Big Issues right now) and again opening up to another whole sphere of people who don\u2019t know my history, don\u2019t know what I\u2019m dealing with Every Frickin\u2019 Day and just see me in those times when I\u2019m well rested (and absolutely bouncy with joy about being out and amongst such phenomenal people!).\nBut people are starting to catch on, l think my twitter peeps are starting to notice I make about 1 event for every 10 they attend. That simple question \u201cwhat do you do?\u201d becomes a loaded one, and I\u2019m stuck trying to explain that this otherwise extracurricular stuff is My Big Thing, the rest of my days and energy are filled up with life management, napping, and trying to move a writing career forward (at 5hrs a week instead of 40hrs).\nBut thanks to @ajproc\u2018s little tweet, I too am abandoning efforts to cram my square peg life into anything other than what it is. I\u2019m not going to bother trying to pass for normal.\nGravity is indeed working against me, it often gets me down. This half-speed slug-girl life ain\u2019t like yours, but I\u2019m making a pretty decent go of what I\u2019ve got.\n\u201cTwice as much ain\u2019t twice as good, and won\u2019t sustain like one-half could. It\u2019s wanting more that\u2019s gonna send me to my knees.\u201d\nPosted in another 100 days, philosophizingTagged acceptance, CFS, disability, fear, gravity, hope, illness, life, normal, struggle\n6 thoughts on \u201cDay 7 \u2013 passing for normal\u201d\nSomething to help perk you up after gravity\u2019s got\u2019cha down:\nhttp://tinyurl.com/bubbletoes\nMostly at work, I spend time trying to pass for:\ncoming from a different place but fairly normal for that place in such a way that I can gradually open up about myself.\nIt doesn\u2019t work very well.\nMost of the people that I know live very boring and mundane lives. They work, they save money and every once in a while they piss away a Friday night eating chicken wings and drinking beer with the closest of their friends, if they\u2019re lucky enough to have any that have time to share it with them. These are the people that say that Calgary lacks culture, that the people aren\u2019t as friendly here as somewhere else and that if you don\u2019t like the weather you just have to wait twenty minutes.\nYou\u2019re more involved in living a good social life than those people.\nHugs, Val. Fitting into a pre-determined mould is overrated.\nThis post is very, very fitting for me today. Trying to find my own shape.\nBest of luck to us both :)\n100 days, posting from where I\u2019m at. Which isn\u2019t meditative, but has a value of its own.\nToday I\u2019m doped up with a headcold and rolling in and out of bed. This is a kind of stuck that feels fine, emotionally. Waiting. Waiting and feeling like I\u2019m on a more basic level of my existance. Considering sleep at every turn, aware of my energy, keeping one goal in mind, if any, putting one foot in front of the other. I\u2019ve always found physical illness to be a relief after depression. It sounds heartless and self-absorbed to say, but I\u2019ve even found grief to be a relief in contrast to depression.\nThe stuck I have trouble with is waiting for a better chance to live my life, to risk, to do. My thoughts racing and sniping (monkey mind.) Of being tired of myself.\nValerie, I can\u2019t drink either. When I\u2019m up long enough I\u2019m not terrified of my downfall \u2013 it\u2019s not real. But when I\u2019m down, or clawing my way up, I dread all my future downs. I wish you much up, health, and sun!\nHmmm\u2026 maybe appearing normal isn\u2019t something to aspire to. I think the word you\u2019re looking for is not \u201cnormal\u201d but \u201caverage\u201d. And who wants to be that?\nI think I\u2019m normal, but compared to the population at large, I\u2019m certainly not average. Something about being a gay, married, professional artist, 70s sci-fi worshiper, occasional author, planning on moving to Mexico precludes that.",

After long-standing speculation, Freeform has confirmed that \u201cPretty Little Liars\u201d will end after its seventh season.\nCreator Marlene King and stars Troian Bellisario, Ashley Benson, Lucy Hale, Shay Mitchell and Sasha Pieterse announced the news today on Facebook Live.\n\u201cPretty Little Liars\u201d is currently in the midst of its seventh season with the midseason finale airing tomorrow night (Tuesday, 8 p.m.). The second half of the season \u2014 which will mark the final 10 episodes of the show \u2014 premieres in April 2017. Freeform has planned a special two-hour series finale for the last episode.\nLast year, Variety was first to report that the show would not return for an eighth season.\n\u201cPretty Little Liars,\u201d which premiered in 2010, is Freeform\u2019s top show. It catapulted the then-ABC Family network into the social media stratosphere, becoming a pop culture phenomenon for teen audiences and beyond with over 14 million Facebook followers, 3.7 million Twitter followers and 5.8 million Instagram followers.\n\u201cThrough brilliant storytelling, compelling characters and social media phenomena, \u2018Pretty Little Liars\u2019 paved the way for television shows, writers and cast to interact and engage with audiences on a national and global scale like never before, which led the series to unparalleled success,\u201c said Karey Burke, Freeform\u2019s executive vice president of programming and development.\nFreeform Exec Explains Why \u2018Pretty Little Liars\u2019 Is Ending \u2014 Plus, Will There Ever Be A Movie?\nMarlene King, Bella Thorne\u2019s \u2018Famous in Love\u2019 Lands Series Order at Freeform\nKing commented: \u201cIt\u2019s been an honor to work with such a talented cast and crew over the last seven years. We are a family, and it will be hard to say goodbye to a show that has made such an impact on young audiences and been a mouthpiece for cultural change. I\u2019m excited for fans to finally have all of their questions answered, and I believe they will be satisfied with the wild ride that is our last ten episodes. I am also thrilled to embark on my next endeavor \u2018Famous In Love\u2019 with Bella Thorne and for \u2018PLL\u2019 fans to get wrapped up in Paige\u2019s rise to stardom and the pitfalls of Hollywood.\u201d\nInsiders say that the network and studio would have liked to continue with more seasons of \u201cPretty Little Liars,\u201d if King and the cast had signed back on, but ultimately, the story had run its course and the cast, whose contracts were up at the end of Season 7, is now free to explore more projects.\nBuzz of the series ending before an eighth season has long been discussed by cast members in various interviews, though the actors and producers had also previously teased another season or a possible movie. Last year, Variety reported that the show would come to a close after Season 7, following an interview with King, though she later clarified her comments.\nThe teen thriller, which is based on Sara Shepard\u2019s books of the same name, revolves around the five-some (played by Bellisario, Benson, Hale, Mitchell and Pieterse), better known as the Liars, who have been tormented by a mysterious villain \u201cA,\u201d since the show began. When \u201cPLL\u201d comes to a close after its upcoming spring season, the real \u201cA\u201d will finally be revealed, after other sub-\u201cA\u201d figures have come to the forefront throughout the past six-and-a-half seasons.\nIn 2013, \u201cPretty Little Liars\u201d spawned a spinoff, \u201cRavenswood,\u201d though the drama was cancelled after one season. The short-lived series starred \u201cPretty Little Liars'\u201d Tyler Blackburn, who returned to the flagship show and is a series regular, alongside the \u201cPLL\u201d men Keegan Allen and Ian Harding, both of whom have also been on the show since its first season. Janel Parrish, Laura Leighton, Chad Lowe, Holly Marie Combs and Andrea Parker also star.\nWhile King will stay in the Freeform family with her upcoming series \u201cFamous In Love,\u201d the \u201cPLL\u201d stars are branching off into new territory. Mitchell, who had a role in in ensemble romantic comedy \u201cMother\u2019s Day,\u201d recently landed her first feature film role in the horror flick \u201cCadaver;\u201d Hale recently signed with ICM to steer the next iteration of her career; and Bellisario is starring in the indie flick \u201cSister Cities,\u201d which will soon debut on Lifetime. During the show\u2019s run, much of the cast had various outside projects \u2014 Benson starred in the James Franco film \u201cSpring Breakers\u201d and Adam Sandler\u2019s \u201cPixels;\u201d Hale signed with Hollywood Records and released a country album; and Parrish competed on \u201cDancing With the Stars.\u201d\n\u201cFamous In Love\u201d will debut after the spring premiere of \u201cPretty Little Liars\u201d in April 2017.

Its suburbs suffered major damage, but the city center was largely spared.\n\"I know that this is not the news that Fort McMurray and area residents wanted to hear. But this is what we need to do to ensure safety,\" Larivee said.\nShe added that the government will present a detailed plan of return for the evacuees in approximately 10 days.\nThe 850 firefighters deployed to the area are battling priority hot spots around the city thanks to infrared surveillance, said Chad Morrison, director of the province\u2019s fire services.\nThe main blaze, which has destroyed 2,410 square kilometers in a dozen days, continued to stretch eastward Thursday, ravaging uninhabited zones just 25 kilometers from the neighboring province of Saskatchewan, Fort McMurray fire chief Darby Allen said. \u2014 AFP",

        "raw_content": "How to Communicate More Confidently\nWe have many opportunities to demonstrate our confidence or otherwise, but perhaps the most obvious example is when we are talking to an individual or a group.\nThose who have low self-esteem or confidence are likely to mutter, to stutter and to avoid eye contact. Those who are highly confident and sure of themselves will speak loudly and proudly.\nSo with that in mind, how do you go about communicating as confidently as possible and helping to ensure your message comes across well while also making you look sure of yourself and of what you\u2019re saying?\nThe first tip is to talk more slowly. When we are nervous, we will often speak more quickly without even realizing it. This is a result of neurotransmitters being released which slow our perception of time and which encourage rushing.\nSimply slowing down then will greatly increase your sense of calm and authority. Not only that, but by giving people longer to hang on to what you\u2019re saying will let your words have more impact and drama. This also suggests a trust in what you\u2019re saying \u2013 it shows you aren\u2019t worried people will stop listening \u2013 whereas rushing makes us seem like we\u2019re worried people are just going to move on!\nWatch any big celebrity talk on TV and you\u2019ll notice they tell lots of stories and they always build suspense and use rhetorical questions. They\u2019ll use repetition and leave big gaps. This takes huge confidence, but if you can pull it off, then you\u2019ll have an audience eating from your hands!\nOne of the most important things you can do to demonstrate confidence as you speak is to maintain eye contact. This is true if you\u2019re speaking with just one person and it shows that you aren\u2019t afraid to meet their gaze and to speak to them as equals. It\u2019s also true if you\u2019re speaking to a crowd however, in which case you need to look at everyone and to ensure they are all following and included.\nFinally, remember that communication is only somewhat verbal. More of what we mean is conveyed through body language and this is why it\u2019s so important that your body language reflects what you\u2019re saying. Be passionate and let your arms do the talking along with the words you\u2019re saying. You\u2019ll appear more honest, more confident and far more engaging!\nCommunicatingConfidence",

        "title": "Wrongful Death Lawyer | Wrongful Death Attorney | Johns Creek GA",
        "raw_content": "Johns Creek Wrongful Death Lawyer\nWrongful Death Lawyer in Johns Creek, GA\nThe term \u201cwrongful death\u201d refers to the death of an individual that could have been prevented or would not have happened had it not been for the negligence, carelessness or intent of another party. There are laws in place in Johns Creek, GA that offer surviving family members the option to file a lawsuit against those they deem responsible for the death in question. If you have lost someone you love, and if you believe that they died because of somebody\u2019s negligence or intent, you should talk to wrongful death lawyer in Johns Creek, Georgia.\nShould I Hire a Wrongful Death Lawyer in Johns Creek, Georgia?\nIf you have recently lost a loved one due to the negligence or malice of another, there are bound to be many questions running through your head. Who is eligible to file a wrongful death claim? What is regarded as a wrongful death? An experienced attorney will be able to explain these things in great detail to you so you can approach your case with confidence.\nAny individual that feels their close loved one died due to the negligence of another party can file a lawsuit against that negligent individual on the grounds of wrongful death. This is a serious accusation, but one that is not uncommon in our courts today. If you believe that somebody you loved died due to the negligence of another individual, you should speak to a wrongful death lawyer immediately. As per the laws in Johns Creek, Georgia, there is a statute of limitations in place for filing a wrongful death claim. That is why you need to speak to wrongful death attorneys so that they can help you file your wrongful death claim without delay.\nAsk a Georgia Wrongful Death Attorney: What Qualifies as a Wrongful Death?\nAccording to the state of Georgia\u2019s code of law, \u201cwrongful death\u201d is construed as the untimely death of a person that is caused by the negligence, recklessness, or any intentional or criminal act of another entity (i.e., a business) or person. Typically, negligence is defined as a person\u2019s or an entity\u2019s failure to use diligence and care in circumstances where they must do so, and which unfortunately leads to a fatal injury. If this has been the case with you and your loved ones, contact wrongful death lawyers to find out how you can file a claim against the negligent party.\nIt is important to note that just because your spouse, child, or parent has passed away, this does not mean that it is a case of wrongful death. Wrongful death claims are based on establishing negligence. A wrongful death lawyer will need to prove negligence and will be required to link it to a specific event such as an auto accident in Johns Creek, a work-related incident, or wrong diagnosis.\nIn a wrongful death case, the harmed party is no longer able to file their claim. Instead, their family members are the ones who contact the wrongful death attorney and bring the case to court. In some cases, the personal representative of the deceased may contact wrongful death attorneys if there are no living relatives who are allowed or entitled under Georgia\u2019s code of law to file the claim. You can discuss these aspects with wrongful death lawyers to find out if you can file a wrongful death claim on somebody\u2019s behalf.\nWho Can File a Wrongful Death Claim According to Georgia Law?\nUnder the laws of Georgia, a wrongful death claim may be brought to court by the surviving spouse, partner, or parent of the deceased. If a husband or wife passes, the surviving spouse can and should represent the interests of their children in court. As per the provisions of the law, the spouse will not receive less than one-third of the total recovery amount that the court approves. This is irrespective of the number of children that the couple shared. Children will also be entitled to a fair share of the same as per the laws in Georgia. Speak to a wrongful death lawyer to find out more information in this regard.\nIn case the deceased had no spouse or children who could file a wrongful death claim, a claim may be brought by either the surviving parent or parents or by the personal representative of the deceased person\u2019s estate. However, there are specific regulations regarding this so you must discuss this with a wrongful death lawyer.\nIf the claim is brought by a personal representative of the deceased, any recovery attained by the wrongful death attorney on their behalf shall be held by the estate for the fruitful benefit of the deceased person\u2019s next of kin. If you are still not sure whether or not you are qualified to file a claim, then Georgia wrongful death attorneys can advise you on this matter.\nWhat Compensation Can Wrongful Death Lawyers Help Me Receive?\nThere are two main types of wrongful death claims that can be filed under Georgia law. You can establish the value of the deceased\u2019s life or indemnify the deceased person\u2019s family or any representative or representatives thereof against any financial loss associated with their demise.\nThe first type of claim is brought to court by the wrongful death lawyers on behalf of the surviving relatives of the deceased. It focuses primarily on recovering any financial loss as well as the intangible value of the decedent\u2019s life such as:\nLoss of benefits and earnings, including any amounts that the decedent would have been entitled to if he or she had lived, and\nDeprivation of care, companionship, and other intangible benefits that the decedent provided to his or her kin.\nThis information may be complicated for you to decipher on your own, that is why you should clarify any questions or concerns you might have about wrongful death with your wrongful death lawyer.\nIt is not uncommon for an assessor to establish and place a financial value on the loss of any household benefits that the decedent would have provided to their family if they had not died. This would be added to the settlement amount.\nBy comparison, the second type of claim is filed on behalf of the estate of the decedent. Speak to your wrongful death attorneys about this option. The damages that the wrongful death lawyers can recover in this case include:\nHealthcare expenses associated with the decedent\u2019s last illness, hospitalization or injury. In most wrongful death claims, these can be quite significant. After the person\u2019s death, it is the surviving family members who have to deal with these expenditures. That is why the law in Georgia allows family members to file a wrongful death claim so that they can be compensated for financial loss and pain and suffering. Talk to a wrongful death lawyer to find out how you can claim healthcare expenses in a wrongful death claim.\nFuneral and burial costs can also be quite high. This is something the surviving family members have to deal with along with the pain and loss of losing a loved one. Speak to wrongful death attorneys as to how they can help you seek compensation for these expenses during this difficult time.\nYou may also be able to claim for the suffering and pain that the deceased person experienced before their demise. This is a fairly subjective element of a wrongful death claim and will require the skill of a wrongful death lawyer to ensure it holds up in court. Surviving family members can play an important role here as they were the closest to the deceased. They should provide as much information as they can to the wrongful death attorneys so that they, in turn, can prepare a strong argument on their behalf. That is why it is important to think about all elements surrounding the death of your loved one and to provide every little detail to your wrongful death lawyer.\nAsk a Wrongful Death Attorney: Statute of Limitation for Georgia Wrongful Death Claims\nAccording to the statute of limitations enforced in Johns Creek, Georgia, the survivors or the representative of the decedent need to contact the wrongful death lawyer and file a claim within two years of the date of death. If the case is not brought in a court within the two-year time frame, the right to file a claim is virtually lost. That is why it is important that surviving family members do not delay and contact a wrongful death lawyer as soon as they realize or become aware of the fact that their loved one\u2019s death was indeed preventable.\nAs each case is different, wrongful death attorneys need to keep in mind that the two-year \u2018stopwatch\u2019 tolls or stops in specific situations. For instance, if a criminal case dealing with the same events as the wrongful death claim has been brought to court already, the two-year time frame is suspended until the criminal case is resolved. The two-year term starts running again on the same day that the criminal file is closed. Any wrongful death attorney would be aware of this fact, and you should thus discuss this with them if this applies to your case.\nYour wrongful death attorney will tell you that as per the law in Georgia, the statute of limitations for a wrongful death claim may be tolled for up to five years if the decedent\u2019s estate has not been probated. You may speak to your wrongful death lawyer about this in more detail, but this means that in certain cases, a wrongful death claim may be filed within up to seven years following the decedent\u2019s demise.\nReach Out to a Johns Creek, Georgia Wrongful Death Lawyer About Your Case\nIf you have any questions, it is vitally important that you speak to a wrongful death lawyer practicing in Johns Creek, Georgia to find out how the statute of limitations can be applied in your particular case and what kind of claim or remedy is best to pursue. At The Weinstein Firm, we have a team of lawyers who are dedicated to providing the best legal representation to each client. Our goal is to help victims of wrongful death in their time of need and to make sure that they have access to help and support as they need it even more during this time\nIt is never easy to lose somebody you love.

That is why the legal system in Johns Creek, GA provides surviving family members the chance to get some closure and to make sure that the person who was negligent does not get the opportunity to do the same with somebody else.\nTalk to our wrongful death lawyer and tell them exactly how the death occurred and why you suspect that negligence may have been a factor.

The very first Ikea opened in the state, and it was a big deal. People began camping out Monday at 5am. And it gets stranger from there.\nI never did quite understand those people that waited outside, choosing to use a portopotty, sleep in a tent in a parking lot, and sit out in the cold \u2013 these are also the same people that wake up at an ungodly hour to shop on Black Friday. Sure you might get free stuff, a great deal, or even a free meatball \u2013 but is it worth it? And don\u2019t most people have\u2026 jobs, or something that would prevent them from spending 3 days sitting in a lawn chair so that they can get another equally priced chair that they will have to assemble?\nI also don\u2019t understand those who never have heard of Ikea or what it\u2019s about. I am spoiled, growing up about 30 minutes from not one but two stores, though even in college I don\u2019t think I purchased anything from them other than a comforter. In the numerous blogs and articles that have appeared for this event, there has been a lot of questions just exactly what Ikea is. I honestly don\u2019t know how anyone can not know at this stage \u2013 I thought I was going to be stoned when the location was announced and I was in Cleveland \u2013 people took it very seriously. Sorry friends, you might just have to visit me in order to get your fix.\nAlso included was a Traditional Swedish Log-Sawing Ceremony. The jury is still out on this one, as I have a job and missed the opening day festivities, but I\u2019d be curious to see this. If anyone is going to be having some kind of good luck ceremony soon, let me know.\nI didn\u2019t know what Ikea was until I met Adria. We didn\u2019t have one in Florida. We do now. I got my current bed minus the matress and dresser at the one in VA. I love them and they were cheap, but I have to sell them before I move.\nWhere would you be without Adria? I\u2019m not sure I get you ever, Ikea or not, but love you anyways.\n03.14.08 you nerd \u00bb",

        "raw_content": "Home > Comment & Analysis > Comment > Uncategorized > A Nation of Remainers and Leavers? How Brexit Has Forged a New Sense of Identity\nPosted on 22 October 2018 by John Curtice\nIt has now become commonplace to say that attitudes towards Brexit are polarised. One reason is that the country remains more or less evenly divided between the merits of Remain and Leave, as our recently launched EURef2 Poll of Polls shows. Another is that different kinds of voters typically have very different views. Most younger people and university graduates would prefer to stay in the EU, while most older people and those with few, if any, educational qualifications back leaving.\nBut perhaps there is also a third reason. This is that many voters are very strongly committed to their side of the argument. Indeed, so strong is this commitment that these voters now think of themselves as a \u2018Remainer\u2019 or \u2018Leaver\u2019, in much the same way that somebody might think of themselves as, say, a \u2018Manchester United fan\u2019 or a \u2018Manchester City supporter\u2019. Being a \u2018Remainer\u2019 or a \u2018Leaver\u2019 has become part of their self-identity, and a label to which they feel an emotional bond and which serves to underpin and reinforce their support for staying in or leaving the EU irrespective of the arguments and counter-arguments about what Brexit will or will not bring.\nSuch an idea is not new to the study of politics. The idea that somebody might say \u2018I\u2019m a Conservative\u2019 or \u2018I\u2019m Labour\u2019 has been recognised by academics ever since the advent of the scientific study of voting in the immediate post-war period \u2013 and doubtless it was part of everyday discourse long before that. However, ever since the 1970s one of the key findings of academic surveys of voting behaviour has been a gradual but persistent decline in the proportion who say that they identify with a party, and an especially marked drop in the proportion who say that they do so strongly.\nSo, it might be thought something of a surprise if an electorate that has become increasingly disengaged from our political parties should now demonstrate a strong emotional commitment to being a \u2018Remainer\u2019 or a \u2018Leaver\u2019. On the other hand, it has often been remarked that the debate about Brexit in Britain is part of a wider resurgence of the \u2018politics of identity\u2019 as manifested in everything from the rise of populist anti-immigrant parties in a number of European countries to the (tonally very different) demands for independence in, for example, Scotland and Catalonia. Perhaps, then, many a voter does feel a strong emotional attachment to their side of the Brexit debate, thereby adding another dimension to the polarisation engendered by Brexit.\nThat, at least, is what Professor Sara Hobolt and her colleagues have argued on the basis of their work on voters\u2019 attitudes towards Brexit as part of the \u2018UK in a Changing Europe\u2019 programme. Today we publish an analysis paper that reports on our efforts to test and assess their claim, and in particular to compare how many people feel a strong Brexit identity with how many say nowadays that they identify strongly with a party. The paper is based on data collected during the summer as part of the most recent wave of questions on attitudes towards Brexit to be asked on NatCen\u2019s mixed mode random probability panel.\nThere is one clear headline. Our research strongly supports the claims of Professor Hobolt and her colleagues. Nearly nine in ten members of our panel said that they were either a \u2018Remainer\u2019 or a \u2018Leaver\u2019, whereas less than two-thirds of them claim to identify with a political party. Meanwhile, no less than 44% say they are a \u2018very strong Remainer\u2019 or a \u2018very strong Leaver\u2019, whereas only 9% claim to be a very strong supporter of a political party.\nStrong identifiers are to be found on both sides of the Brexit debate. They are, though, a little more prevalent on the Remain side. While 45% of Leavers say they are a very strong Leaver, no less than 53% of Remainers report a very strong identity. It is sometimes suggested that, given the importance of immigration and sovereignty to many voters on the Leave side, their views are rooted above all in emotion and identity. However, the large proportion of very strong identifiers on the Remain side suggests that in practice emotion and identity underpin the views of many a Remainer too.\nThese who identify strongly with one side or the other have some distinctive views. Very strong Remainers are more likely to oppose than support the idea that prospective EU migrants should have to apply to come to Britain in the same way as non-EU migrants do \u2013 no other group of voters takes that view. Meanwhile very strong Leavers are especially likely to be critical of how the EU has been handling the Brexit talks. The two groups are clearly looking at the Brexit process through very different and partisan lenses.\nBut nowhere is this more clearly the case than in respect of the perceived economic consequences of Brexit. Very strong Remainers are almost unanimous in believing that Brexit will make Britain\u2019s economy worse off. In contrast, the vast majority of very strong Leavers believe that the economy will be better off. It is, then, little wonder that after more than two years of debate about what Brexit should and could mean, relatively few voters on either side have changed their minds about the relative merits of Remain or Leave. For even if the head is uncertain, the heart remains sure.\nThe Brexit process The economic debate\nWould you say that the EU is handling Britain\u2019s exit from the EU well or badly? (NatCen Panel)\nDo you think that as a result of leaving the EU Britain\u2019s economy will be better or worse off?\nWould you be in favour or against the UK\u2019s post-Brexit agreement with the EU including requiring people from the EU who want to come to live here to apply to do so in the same way as people from outside the EU?",

A \u20ac350,000 winner\u2019s cheque will secured them a place in The European Tour\u2019s \u2018tournament of champions\u2019. The 2011 Major Champions Darren Clarke and Charl Schwartzel lead the field and are joined by other major winners, including Ernie Els and Retief Goosen. Els commented; \u201cObviously I love playing in South Africa and have won five of my European Tour titles there. I have great memories of playing at the Links at Fancourt, both in professional events and when on holiday there, and I\u2019m looking forward to trying to win The European Tour\u2019s first true \u2018tournament of champions\". \u201cSouth African golf is in great shape at the moment, which is apparent by the number of South Africans in the field. Dr. Hasso Plattner\u2019s vision in creating The Links at Fancourt will provide the perfect stage to showcase the wonderful golf opportunities offered in South Africa.\u201d Of the seasoned campaigners, two Ryder Cup captains are teeing up for this event. Jos\u00e9 Mar\u00eda Olaz\u00e1bal and Colin Montgomerie will bring their enormous experience into the arena. By contrast in the experience on display, will be two of the more exciting youngtsers to grace the links in recent years. The new talents in European golf with 18 year old Italian Matteo Manassero and Englishman Tom Lewis 21, will be keen to compete against the old school players. The Volvo Golf Champions is an exclusive, limited field event with no halfway cut, open only to European Tour players who have won an event on the previous year\u2019s European Tour International Schedule. Joining them are the winners of the first two events of the 2012 season, the Africa Open and the Joburg Open. Other entries include current Tour Members, under the age of 50, with more than ten European Tour victories. Three time major winner Ernie Els struggled on the greens last year which then affected his ability to have fun on the course, he bemoaned this loss saying, \"I've kind of lost my sense of humor, you know. When you don't putt well your sense of humor doesn't work very well. I'd like to get my sense of humor back. My work ethic and determination, especially this year, is better than ever because I had such a dismal season last year.\" \"I would like to really turn things around this year and see if I can win some tournaments again.'' He needs to turn things around because he doesn't qualify automatically for the Masters in April. \"I know where I stand and I know what I need to do. I have a couple of months to rectify that. I don't want to be asking for an invite there.'' Padraig Harrington also a three-time major winner, now ranked 89th in the world also finds himself in a similar position. He understands though that you can not win every year, talking about his two British Open titles and a PGA Championship victory. \"I certainly had a peak year in 2007 and another peak in 2008. It's impossible to always have peak years. It doesn't worry me in the greater scheme of things, because I know you can't win them every year. You have to sit there and be patient and wait for your turn, and like 2007 and 2008, they all come at once.'' ALLAN HENRY / US PRESSWIRE",

It is the fifth-most populous city in the state of New York following New\u2005York\u2005City, Buffalo, Rochester, and Yonkers.\nAt the 2010\u2005census, the city population was 145,252, and its metropolitan\u2005area had a population of 662,577. It is the economic and educational hub of Central\u2005New\u2005York, a region with over one million inhabitants. Syracuse is also well-provided with convention sites, with a downtown\u2005convention\u2005complex. Syracuse was named after the classical Greek city Syracuse (Siracusa in Italian), a city on the eastern coast of the Italian island of Sicily.\nThe city has functioned as a major crossroads over the last two centuries, first between the Erie\u2005Canal and its branch canals, then of the railway\u2005network. Today, Syracuse is at the intersection of Interstates 81 and 90. Its airport is the largest in the region. Syracuse is home to Syracuse\u2005University, a major research university, as well as Le\u2005Moyne\u2005College, a nationally recognized liberal arts college. In 2010, Forbes rated Syracuse fourth among the top 10 places in the U.S. to raise a family.[6]\n\u272a Syracuse, New York: USA small city family getaway\n\u272a SYRACUSE NY WORST HOODS\n\u272a Visit Syracuse - All the MUST DOS!\n\u272a SYRACUSE NEW YORK HOODS\n\u272a Syracuse, New York - History and Facts\nFrom exquisite countryside, to downtown urban excitement, picturesque Syracuse is quickly becoming one of New York State\u2019s most sought after holiday destinations.

At the invitation of the Onondaga\u2005Nation, one of the five nations of the Iroquois\u2005confederacy, a group of Jesuit priests, soldiers, and coureurs\u2005des\u2005bois (including Pierre Esprit Radisson) set up a mission, known as Sainte\u2005Marie\u2005among\u2005the\u2005Iroquois, or Ste. Marie de Gannentaha, on the northeast shore of Onondaga\u2005Lake.\nJesuit missionaries reported salty brine springs around the southern end of what they referred to as \"Salt Lake\", known today as Onondaga Lake in honor of the historic tribe. French fur traders established trade throughout the New York area among the Iroquois. Dutch and English colonists also were traders, and the English nominally claimed the area, from their upstate base at Albany. During the American\u2005Revolutionary\u2005War, the highly decentralized Iroquois divided into groups and bands that supported the British, and two tribes that supported the American-born rebels, or patriots.\nThe 1788 Treaty of Fort Stanwix was made to force most of the Iroquois to cede their land. Settlers came into central and western New York from eastern parts of the state and New England. The subsequent designation of this area by the state of New York as the Onondaga Salt Springs Reservation provided the basis for commercial salt production. Such production took place from the late 1700s through the early 1900s. Brine from wells that tapped into halite (common salt) beds in the Salina shale near Tully,\u2005New\u2005York, 15 miles south of the city, were developed in the 19th century.[7][8] It is the north-flowing brine from Tully that is the source of salt for the \"salty springs\" found along the shoreline of Onondaga Lake. The rapid development of this industry in the 18th and 19th centuries led to the nicknaming of this area as \"The Salt City\".\nView of the Boulevard c. 1908\nThe original settlement of Syracuse was a conglomeration of several small towns and villages, and was not recognized with a post office by the United\u2005States\u2005Government. Establishing the post office was delayed because the settlement did not have a name. Joshua Forman wanted to name the village, Corinth. When John\u2005Wilkinson applied for a post office in that name in 1820, it was denied because the same name was already in use in Saratoga\u2005County,\u2005New\u2005York.[9] Having read a poetical description of Syracuse, Sicily (Siracusa), Wilkinson saw similarities to the lake and salt springs of this area, which had both \"salt and fresh water mingling together\".[10] On February 4, 1820, Wilkinson proposed the name \"Syracuse\" to a group of fellow townsmen; it became the name of the village and the new post office.[11]\nThe first Solvay Process Company plant in the United States was erected on the southwestern shore of Onondaga Lake in 1884. The village was called Solvay to commemorate the inventor, Ernest\u2005Solvay. In 1861, he developed the ammonia-soda process for the manufacture of soda ash (anhydrous sodium carbonate, a rare chemical called natrite, to distinguish it from natural natron of antiquity) from brine wells dug in the southern end of Tully valley (as a source of sodium chloride) and limestone (as a source of calcium carbonate). The process was an improvement over the earlier Leblanc process. The Syracuse Solvay plant was the incubator for a large chemical industry complex owned by Allied Signal in Syracuse. While this industry stimulated development and provided many jobs in Syracuse, it left Onondaga Lake as the most polluted in the nation.\nThe salt industry declined after the Civil War, but a new manufacturing industry arose in its place. Throughout the late 1800s and early 1900s, numerous businesses and stores were established, including the Franklin Automobile Company, which produced the first air-cooled engine in the world; the Century Motor Vehicle Company; the Smith\u2005Corona company; and the Craftsman Workshops, the center of Gustav\u2005Stickley's handmade furniture empire.\nThe Geneva\u2005Medical\u2005College was founded in 1834. It is now known as Upstate\u2005Medical\u2005University, one of four medical colleges in the State\u2005University\u2005of\u2005New\u2005York system, and one of only five medical schools in the state north of New York City.\nOn March 24, 1870, Syracuse University was founded. The State of New York granted the new university its own charter, independent of Genesee\u2005College, which had unsuccessfully tried to move to Syracuse the year before.[12] The university was founded as coeducational. President Peck stated at the opening ceremonies, \"The conditions of admission shall be equal to all persons... there shall be no invidious discrimination here against woman.... brains and heart shall have a fair chance... \"[13] Syracuse implemented this policy and attracted a high proportion of women students. In the College of Liberal Arts, the ratio between male and female students during the 19th century was approximately even. The College of Fine Arts was predominantly female, and a low ratio of women enrolled in the College of Medicine and the College of Law.[13]\nThe first New York State Fair was held in Syracuse in 1841.[14] Between 1842 and 1889, the Fair was held among 11 New York cities before finding a permanent home in Syracuse. It has been an annual event since then, except between 1942 and 1947, when the grounds were used as a military base during World War II.[14]\nWorld War II stimulated significant industrial expansion in the area: specialty steel, fasteners, and custom machining. After the war, two of the Big Three automobile manufacturers (General Motors & Chrysler) had major operations in the area. Syracuse was also headquarters for Carrier\u2005Corporation, and Crouse-Hinds manufactured traffic signals in the city. General\u2005Electric, with its headquarters in Schenectady to the east, had its main television manufacturing plant at Electronics Parkway in Syracuse.\nThe manufacturing industry in Syracuse began to falter in the 1970s, as industry restructured nationwide. Many small businesses failed during this time, which contributed to the already increasing unemployment rate. Rockwell International moved their factory outside New York state. General Electric moved its television manufacturing operations to Suffolk,\u2005Virginia, and later offshore to Asia. The Carrier Corporation moved its headquarters out of Syracuse, relocated its manufacturing operations out of state, and outsourced some of its production to Asian facilities. Although city population has declined since 1950, the Syracuse metropolitan area population has remained fairly stable, growing by 2.5 percent since 1970. While this growth rate is greater than much of Upstate New York, it is far below the national average during that period.\nA view of Downtown\u2005Syracuse from University\u2005Hill\nSyracuse is located at 43\u00b02\u203249\u2033N 76\u00b08\u203240\u2033W\ufeff\u2005/\u2005\ufeff43.04694\u00b0N 76.14444\u00b0W\ufeff / 43.04694; -76.14444 (43.046899, -76.144423).[15]\nAccording to the United\u2005States\u2005Census\u2005Bureau, the city has a total area of 25.6 square miles (66 square kilometres), of which 25.1 square miles (65 square kilometres) is land and 0.6 square miles (1.6 square kilometres) (2.15%) water.\nThe city developed at the northeast corner of the Finger\u2005Lakes region. The city has many neighborhoods that were originally independent villages, which joined the city over the years. Although the central part of Syracuse is flat, many of its neighborhoods are on small hills such as University\u2005Hill and Tipperary\u2005Hill. Land to the north of Syracuse is generally flat, while land to the south is hilly.\nAbout 27 percent of Syracuse's land area is covered by 890,000 trees \u2014 a higher percentage than in Albany, Rochester or Buffalo. The Labor\u2005Day\u2005Storm of 1998 was a derecho that destroyed approximately 30,000 trees. The sugar\u2005maple accounts for 14.2 percent of Syracuse's trees, followed by the Northern\u2005white\u2005cedar (9.8 percent) and the European\u2005buckthorn (6.8 percent). The most common street tree is the Norway\u2005maple (24.3 percent), followed by the honey\u2005locust (9.3 percent).\nThe densest tree cover in Syracuse is in the two Valley neighborhoods, where 46.6 percent of the land is covered by trees. The lowest tree cover percentage is found in the densely developed downtown, which has only 4.6 percent trees.[16]\nOnondaga\u2005Creek as it flows near Armory\u2005Square\nSyracuse's main water source is Skaneateles\u2005Lake, one of the country's cleanest lakes,[17] located 15 miles (24 kilometres) southwest of the city. Water from nearby Onondaga\u2005Lake is not drinkable due to the industrial dumping that spanned many decades, leaving the lake heavily polluted.[18] Incoming water is left unfiltered,[19] and chlorine is added to prevent bacterial growth. Most of the environmental work to achieve lake cleanup is scheduled to be completed by 2016; the county is scheduled to finish its work by 2018.[20] For periods of drought, there is also a backup line which uses water from Lake\u2005Ontario.[21]\nOnondaga\u2005Creek, a waterway that runs through downtown, flows northward through the city. A creek\u2005walk borders it and the city has plans to connect it to the Lakefront and Inner Harbor, as well as to Franklin\u2005Square, Armory\u2005Square, The\u2005Valley, and ultimately the Onondaga\u2005Nation. The creek is navigable but it can be a challenge. Its channelized nature speeds up its flow, particularly in the spring, when it may be dangerous. After some youngsters drowned in the creek, some residential areas fenced off the creek in their neighborhoods.\nSyracuse's weather averages\nSyracuse has a humid\u2005continental climate and is known for its high snowfall. Boasting 115.6 inches (294 centimetres) on average,[22] Syracuse receives the most annual average snow of any metropolitan area in the United States.[23][24] Syracuse usually wins the Golden\u2005Snowball\u2005Award, among Upstate cities. Its record so far is 192.1 inches (488 centimetres).[25] The high snowfall is a result of the city receiving both heavy snow from the lake\u2005effect of nearby Lake\u2005Ontario (of the Great Lakes) and nor'easter snow from storms driven from the Atlantic Ocean. Snow most often falls in small (about 1\u20133 inches or 2.5\u20137.6 centimetres), almost daily doses, over a period of several days. Larger snowfalls do occur occasionally, and even more so in the northern suburbs.\nThe Blizzard\u2005of\u20051993 was described as the Storm of the Century. Some 42.9 inches (109 centimetres) fell on the city within 48 hours, with 35.6 inches (90 centimetres) falling within the first 24 hours. Syracuse received more snow than any other city in the country during this storm, which shattered a total of eight local records, including the most snow in a single snowstorm.[26] A second notable snowfall was the Blizzard\u2005of\u20051966, with 42.3 inches (107 cm). The Blizzard of '58 occurred in February (16-17th) across Oswego and Onondaga counties. This storm was classified as a blizzard due to the high winds, blowing snow, and cold. 26.1 inches (66 cm) of snow was measured at Syracuse and drifts reached 20 feet (600 cm) in Oswego County. (See Thirtieth Publication of the Oswego County Historical Society, (1969) and The Climate and Snow Climatology of Oswego N.Y., (1971))\nFebruary 1958 was the snowiest month ever in Syracuse, with a record 72.6 inches (184 cm) recorded in 28 days. Syracuse shivered under a white blanket that averaged 4 feet (120 cm) on February 19. Syracuse declared a snow\u2005emergency under a new law that allowed municipalities to demand streets be cleared of vehicles to help with plowing operations.[27]\nSyracuse receives an annual rainfall of 41.54 inches (1,055 mm).[28]\nSyracuse's hottest month is historically July, with an average high temperature of 82 \u00b0F (28 \u00b0C), while its coldest month is historically January, with an average high temperature of 31 \u00b0F (\u22121 \u00b0C). The record high of 102 \u00b0F (39 \u00b0C) was recorded on July 9, 1936, and the record low of \u221226 \u00b0F (\u221232 \u00b0C) has occurred three times since 1922, the last being February 18, 1979.[29]\nWhile the average high during summer is in the low 80s, high humidity makes the \"real feel\" equivalent to mid-80s to mid-90s in the city. Days just shy of 100 \u00b0F (38 \u00b0C), such as 96 or 97 \u00b0F (36 \u00b0C), are not uncommon in and around the city, when the humidity is factored in. However, days above 100 \u00b0F (38 \u00b0C) are more rare, even with humidity taken into account.\nIn the early 21st century, previous heat records have been broken in the city, as is occurring across the country. For example, the summers of 2005 and 2012 are, respectively, the hottest and fourth-hottest summers on record.[30] Additionally, 2017 and 2018 saw consecutive monthly high temperature records broken in February, of 71 on February 24, 2017,[31] and 75 degrees on February 21, 2018,[32] in addition to four 60-degree days in a row.[31] The latter was the warmest winter day on record.[32]\nClimate data for Syracuse\u2005Hancock\u2005International\u2005Airport, New York (1981\u20132010 normals,[a] extremes 1902\u2013present[b])\n18.4 14.4 9.9 2.6 0.1 0 0 0 0 0.5 5.8 14.7 66.4\nSource: NOAA (relative humidity and sun 1961\u20131990),[34][35][36]\nHistorical Population Figures[37]\nAs of the census of 2010,[38] there were 145,170 people, 57,355 households, and 28,455 families residing in the city.

The first segment from Syracuse University to downtown was estimated to cost $5 million, which McDonald planned to raise himself. Due perceived low operating costs, the system was envisioned as running continuously.[62]\nThe Pyramid Companies have also proposed a monorail linking Syracuse\u2005University to Hancock\u2005International\u2005Airport, via downtown, (Downtown Syracuse), their proposed Destiny\u2005USA, the William\u2005F.\u2005Walsh\u2005Regional\u2005Transportation\u2005Center, and their proposed Destiny Technology Park. The cost of such a line has been estimated at $750 million.[63]\nThe city is served by Amtrak's Empire\u2005Service, Lake\u2005Shore\u2005Limited, and Maple\u2005Leaf lines.

A spur off I-690 directly west of the city, NY\u2005695, provides freeway access to the southwestern suburbs. It meets Interstate 81 in downtown Syracuse in a highly complex and incomplete intersection. Most of its routing through the city directly replaced elevated rail lines, a fact quite notable by the city's former main rail terminal, where the freeway spans the width between the terminal and its outermost platform. In 1981 artist Duke Epolito erected sculptures of \"passengers\" on the far platform. The piece is entitled \"Waiting for the Night Train.\"[64]\nInterstate\u2005481 forms an eastern loop around the city and continues to the northwest as NY\u2005481 to Fulton and Oswego, on the shore of Lake\u2005Ontario.\nTwo US\u2005Highways run through the Syracuse area:\nU.S.\u2005Highway\u200511 (Route\u2005223 in Quebec to New\u2005Orleans) passes through Syracuse, including downtown, and it follows the route of Salina and State Streets.\nU.S.\u2005Highway\u200520 (Boston to Newport,\u2005Oregon) passes south of Syracuse.\nNew\u2005York\u2005State\u2005Route Expressways:\nNew\u2005York\u2005State\u2005Route\u2005481 - Travels from NY\u2005104 in Oswego to the junction of Interstate 81 and Interstate 481 north of Syracuse.\nNew\u2005York\u2005State\u2005Route\u2005690 - Was built as an extension of Interstate 690 in the northwest suburbs of Syracuse. The route is a four-lane divided highway from its southern end at I-690, where it meets Interstate 90 (NYS Thruway), to its end northwest of Baldwinsville in Lysander at NY\u200548 and NY\u2005631.\nNew\u2005York\u2005State\u2005Route\u2005695 - Is a short state highway west of Syracuse in the town of Solvay in Onondaga\u2005County. The number of the highway was derived from the two highways that NY 695 links, Interstate 690 and NY 5.\nPublic services such as garbage pickup, street plowing, sewage, street and park maintenance, and traffic maintenance are provided by the Department of Public Works (DPW).[65]\nThe Syracuse water system was one of the few water systems built and operated before federal funding. The water system was constructed mainly to support the industries around Syracuse, New York. Construction of Syracuse's water system began in 1868.[66]\nIn 2015, the city experienced an average of at least one water\u2005main break per day. Between 2005 and 2015, the city suffered 2,000 water main breaks. Mayor Stephanie Miner estimated of the cost to fix the city's water infrastructure at $1 billion over a 10-15 year period.[67] On February 25, 2015, Miner testified before a joint hearing of the state Assembly Ways and Means Committee and state Senate Finance Committee. Miner testified that the 2014 polar vortex contributed to the increase in Syracuse's water main break.[68]\nOn March 3, the 100th water main break in Syracuse in 2015 occurred on James Street.[69] Early in 2015, Miner lobbied the state for funding to fix the city's aging water system. New York Governor Andrew Cuomo declined to help, stating that the city should improve its economy and increase tax revenues, which would enable the city to fund their own water pipe repairs.[70]\nCourthouse at Columbus Circle\nPatch of the Syracuse Police Department\nThe city is headed by an elected mayor who is limited to two four-year terms. On November 7, 2017, Ben\u2005Walsh was elected mayor. He began in January 2018 as the first independent mayor of Syracuse in over 100 years.[71] The last independent mayor of Syracuse was Louis Will, who was elected in 1913. The previous mayor was former Common Councilor At Large Stephanie\u2005Miner, who was elected on November 3, 2009; she was the first female mayor of Syracuse. Minor was preceded by former Syracuse Common Council President Matthew\u2005Driscoll,[72] who first assumed the position in 2001 after the former mayor, Roy\u2005Bernardi, resigned upon his appointment by President George\u2005W.\u2005Bush to a position in the Department\u2005of\u2005Housing\u2005and\u2005Urban\u2005Development.

It is also the administrative court for the Fifth District of the New\u2005York\u2005State\u2005Unified\u2005Court\u2005System. Judges for these courts are elected at-large.\nThe U.S.\u2005District\u2005Court for the Northern District of New York also holds court in downtown Syracuse at the James Hanley Federal Building.\nThe Syracuse Police Department, commonly referred to as the Syracuse Police, or simply SPD, is the principal law\u2005enforcement\u2005agency of the city of Syracuse, New York.[74] For 2017-18, the police department budget was $48.5 million.[75] Effective December 3, 2018, Kenton Buckner is the city's new Chief of Police.[76][77] Police headquarters is in the John C. Dillon Public Safety Building at 511 South State Street.[78]\nEstablished in 2011, SPD operates a network of 140[79] surveillance cameras called the Criminal Observation and Protection System (COPS).[80][81] Between 2011 and 2014 more than 40 utility pole mounted cameras were installed, mainly in the Southwest and Northeast neighborhoods.[82] The cameras were funded by federal, state, and private grants. In Summer 2014, 10 cameras were approved for installation in Downtown\u2005Syracuse, the first area not targeted because of high levels of violent crime.[83] Live monitoring of Clinton\u2005Square for suspicious people during events and festivals was planned, although police agreed to a prohibition on the use of cameras to monitor protests.[84] Twenty-five additional cameras were planned to be installed in 2016.[81]\nIn spring 2017 the surveillance system was augmented with the installation of ShotSpotter gunshot detection sensors. Syracuse Mayor Stephanie\u2005Miner cited increasing public acceptance of police cameras and lower technology costs as factors in the decision.[85]\nThe Syracuse Fire Department, or SFD, protects the city of Syracuse from fires and other dangers. The Department's Chief is Michael J. Monds.[86]\nSee also: Category:Radio\u2005stations\u2005in\u2005Syracuse,\u2005New\u2005York\nSyracuse has one major daily morning newspaper, The\u2005Post-Standard. Until 2001, Syracuse also had an evening paper, The\u2005Herald-Journal. Besides a Syracuse/Onondaga County edition, The Post-Standard publishes three additional editions: Cayuga, Madison, and Oswego for the other three counties of the metropolitan area, plus an additional edition on Sundays. It has six news bureaus throughout Central New York, as well as one in Albany (state capital) and Washington,\u2005DC.\nBefore the merger with the evening paper, the Post-Standard was named among the \"10 best newspapers in America with a circulation of under 100,000\" by Al\u2005Neuharth of USA\u2005Today (run by a competing organization). Since the merger, circulation has increased to over 120,000. Even outside of its four-county delivery area, the paper is available in many convenience stores and supermarkets from the Canada\u2013US\u2005border to the New York\u2013Pennsylvania border.

        "title": "France, the Rh\u00f4ne | wine-pages",
        "raw_content": "France, the Rh\u00f4ne\nContinuing a line almost due south of Burgundy lie the vineyards of the Rh\u00f4ne valley. This is an area of contrast. In the North, some of the world\u2019s longest-lived wines are produced: rare and aromatic whites; tannic and massively structured reds. In the South, a veritable sea of hearty everyday red is produced, but so too are the famous and high quality wines of Ch\u00e2teauneuf-du-Pape and Gigondas, as well as sweet wines of high quality.\nThe Rh\u00f4ne river begins life way to the north in Switzerland. As it makes it way down through the length of France it widens to become the central feature of the Rh\u00f4ne valley, which spans roughly between Lyons and Avignon.\nThe Rh\u00f4ne valley divides neatly into north/south regions at the town of Valence.\nThe Northern Rh\u00f4ne is a land of steep, steep slopes carved into granite hillsides by the progress of the river over thousands of years. Vines cling to near vertical surfaces, or terraces carved into the rock. It is predominantly a red wine area, but some rare and expensive whites come from here.\nTowards the south, the steep slopes give way to a broad valley floor which is baking hot in the summer. An enormous quantity of mediocre red wine is produced, but pockets of superb quality exist.\nThere are two great grapes of the Northern Rh\u00f4ne:\nSyrah \u2013 the noble red wine grape (often called Shiraz outside France)\nViognier\u2013 for white wines and, interestingly, a small proportion of some reds\nMarsanne and Roussanne are also grown for white wines.\nIn the Southern Rh\u00f4ne a large variety of grapes is permitted. These include:\nGrenache, Syrah, Mourv\u00e8dre and Cinsaut for reds\nGrenache Blanc, Picpoul, Roussanne and Marsanne for whites.\nThe great wines of the Northern Rh\u00f4ne\nAlong with those in Germany\u2019s Mosel valley, the vineyards here are amongst the steepest and most difficult to work in the world. The Northern Rh\u00f4ne\u2019s finest wines are the Syrah reds: also some of the world\u2019s greatest wines. The winemakers of the north are largely family-owned concerns who have worked these daunting slopes for decades.\nThe famous wine of Hermitage takes its name from the hill of Hermitage above the town of Tain. These are historically regarded as the \u201cmanliest\u201d of French wines. Deep, dark and serious, these wines are strapping, tannic and vigorous in youth, developing complexity and finesse as they age over 20 years or more. White Hermitage is also produced, from Marsanne and Roussanne grapes.\nC\u00f4te-R\u00f4tie is an unusual red wine that may contain up to 20% of the white Viognier grape in its blend. This is rarely done however, more often the wines are 100% Syrah, perhaps with a dash of Viognier. C\u00f4te-R\u00f4tie shares some of the character of Hermitage, but is generally more approachable when young, is more aromatic, and has a more graceful appeal.\nLook out for Crozes-Hermitage, a more easily available wine made from less formidable slopes around Hermitage. It is a Syrah with some of the quality, but at a fraction of the price. The co-operative of Tain l\u2019Hermitage has a good reputation. St-Joseph and Cornas are other Syrahs with strong personality at a fraction of the price of Hermitage. The vineyards sit on the opposite bank of the river.\nThe north is also the home of rare and expensive white wines made from the Viognier grape, such as Condrieu and Ch\u00e2teau-Grillet. These wines are clean and highly aromatic yet at the same time powerful and full-bodied. They are also very expensive and can be very long lived. Ch\u00e2teau-Grillet is highly unusual in that it is an Appellation Contr\u00f4l\u00e9e that is under the ownership of only one producer.\nTop producers include: Guigal, Jaboulet, Chapoutier, Chave, Grippat.\nThe great wines of the Southern Rh\u00f4ne\nThe Southern Rh\u00f4ne is mostly known for its red wines. These include famous names like Ch\u00e2teauneuf-du-Pape, but the area is perhaps best known for the less expensive wines of the C\u00f4tes du Rh\u00f4ne.\nThe C\u00f4tes du Rh\u00f4ne\nThis Appellation Contr\u00f4l\u00e9e actually encompasses the Northern Rh\u00f4ne too, but the vast majority of wine is produced from the flat, arid plains of the south. Quality is highly variable. A vast amount of light, easy-drinking wine is made, sometimes using the technique of carbonic maceration found in Beaujolais.\nLook out for C\u00f4tes du Rh\u00f4ne-Villages, which comes from the best 17 villages of the area. Rather like the Beaujolais Villages, the best are sometimes labelled with the village name, C\u00f4tes du Rh\u00f4ne appearing only in tiny print: Cairanne, Sablet, St-Gervais, Seguret, etc. These should be superior wines, spicy, strong and suitable candidates for 5 to 10 years cellaring. They have lower yields and higher alcohol than the basic appellation.\nWhites in the south tend also to be blends. Modern techniques mean they are usually fresh and enjoyable.\nThe name Ch\u00e2teauneuf-du-Pape means \u201cThe Pope\u2019s new castle\u201d, a reference to when nearby Avignon became the home of the papal court in the 14th century. No fewer than 13 grape varieties are permitted in Ch\u00e2teauneuf-du-Pape, which is easily the leading wine of the Southern Rh\u00f4ne. In theory this means the wine-maker has various options at his or her disposal each vintage depending on how individual grape varieties have performed. In practice, most Ch\u00e2teauneuf-du-Pape is made up of the 3 highest quality grapes: Grenache, Mourv\u00e8dre and Syrah. This is a wine which is invariably high-alcohol, heady and rich. The best Ch\u00e2teauneuf is usually estate bottled.\nSuch wines are easily distinguished by the papal coat of arms embossed on the neck of the bottle, though this should not be considered a gaurantee of quality. Some, but by no means all, of the vineyards of Ch\u00e2teauneuf-du-Pape are distinctive in that the earth is strewn with a deep layer of large, rounded stones known as \u201cgalets\u201d. The galets are said to retain the heat of the sun which helps in the ripening process. This may be true, but many fine properties have soils without a galet in sight, yet they produce ripe and healthy wines.\nThe wines of Gigondas and Vacqueyras are built in a similar style to Ch\u00e2teauneuf-du-Pape and can offer high quality, often substantially cheaper than their famous neighbour. There are some very good wines being made in outlying appellations within the Rh\u00f4ne valley. I have been impressed by the red wines of Costi\u00e8res de N\u00eemes as well as some examples from Coteaux du Tricastin and the C\u00f4tes du Lub\u00e9ron.\nA good deal of quality fortified sweet wine is made too, the most famous example being the Muscats of Beaumes-de-Venise. These are \u201cVins Doux Naturels\u201d, that is they are fortified wines, made by adding spirit part way through fermentation. This produces a wine that is high in alcohol and sugar, and is dominated by grapey flavours. I\u2019ve had mixed experiences with these once again: the best producers making delicate, finely balanced wines, others being sweet and luscious but also rather raw and alcoholic.\nOne grape that is arguable star of the wines of the Rh\u00f4ne has also taken the New World by storm. The Syrah grape is a huge success story in certain regions, notably Australia, where it is known as the Shiraz and is perhaps their leading red wine grape. Australian Shiraz has a family resemblance to the great Syrahs of the Northern Rh\u00f4ne, but it is usually made in a more vividly fruity, earlier-drinking style. Often these are \u201cblockbuster\u201d reds, with bags of fruit, spice, chocolate and peppery flavours. The Australians still market Shiraz as \u201cHermitage\u201d in Australia, but that term is forbidden in EEC countries. Leading Shiraz areas include the Barossa, Clare and Hunter valleys, and top producers include Penfolds, Tim Adams, Henschke, St Hallett, Yarra Yering, Jim Barry and Peter Lehmann. California and South Africa are also making some superb wines from the Syrah, the style is often somewhere between the Rh\u00f4ne and Australia.\nSouthern Rh\u00f4ne blends are also popular in Australia and California. Mostly Mourv\u00e8dre and Grenache based, there\u2019s even a first class wine called Nine Popes (a punny translation of Ch\u00e2teauneuf-du-Pape) made by Charles Melton.\nAustralia and California are also producing some excellent Marsannes, Roussannes and blends. The Marsanne in Australia reaches great ripeness and produces a wine that is peachy, full-bodied and delicious, but high in alcohol. Good producers include Michelton, Thomas Mitchell and Tahbilk at around the \u00a35/$8US mark. California is making some very good Viognier wines too, the best finding small areas with micro-climates not unlike the Northern Rh\u00f4ne. These wines are also rather high in alcohol (necessary to achieve optimum ripeness) but can offer a really unusual white wine experience. Fetzer Vineyards, from the cooler Mendocino area, makes a fine example. (The South of France is also planting a lot of Viognier currently \u2013 look out for some of the Vin de Pays bottlings).",

Several planets in the Solar System can be seen with the naked eye. These were regarded by many early cultures as divine, or as emissaries of deities. As scientific knowledge advanced, human perception of the planets changed, incorporating a number of disparate objects. In 2006, the International Astronomical Union (IAU) officially adopted a resolution defining planets within the Solar System. This definition is controversial because it excludes many objects of planetary mass based on where or what they orbit. Although eight of the planetary bodies discovered before 1950 remain \"planets\" under the modern definition, some celestial bodies, such as Ceres, Pallas, Juno and Vesta (each an object in the solar asteroid belt), and Pluto (the first trans-Neptunian object discovered), that were once considered planets by the scientific community, are no longer viewed as such.\nThis page contains text from Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia - https://wn.com/Planet\nPlanet Mu is an English electronic music record label run by Mike Paradinas (also known as \u00b5-Ziq).

The label started out as a subsidiary of Virgin Records, until in 1998 Mike Paradinas set up the label independent of Virgin and was distributed through SRD.\nDJ Hekla\nFrost Jockey\nJansky Noise\nThis page contains text from Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia - https://wn.com/Planet_Mu\nPlanet was an early steam locomotive built in 1830 by Robert Stephenson and Company for the Liverpool and Manchester Railway.\nThe ninth locomotive built for the L&MR, it was Stephenson's next major design change after the Rocket. It was the first locomotive to employ inside cylinders, and subsequently the 2-2-0 type became known as Planets. On 23 November 1830 No.9 Planet ran the approximately 50 km from Liverpool to Manchester in one hour.\nPlanet-type locomotives\nSix further of the type were ordered by the L&MR from Robert Stephenson & Co. Three more were supplied by Murray & Wood in Leeds, to whom Robert Stephenson & Co. had sent the drawings for their manufacture.\nThe Planet (from 1830) and the Patentee (from 1833, also designed by Stephenson) were the first locomotive types to be built in large numbers.\nThe Planet locomotives appear closer to subsequent types, and conversely look quite different from Rocket although only a year separated these two designs (Stephenson's Northumbrian representing an intermediate evolutionary step).\nThis page contains text from Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia - https://wn.com/Planet_(locomotive)\nplanetautoinsurance.com",

        "raw_content": "\u2190 Mini Reviews\u2026\nJodie talks Reading Habits \u2192\nBook Review: Wild Crush by Simone Elkeles\nPosted on November 13, 2015\tby Jodie @ Words Read & Written\nTitle: Wild Crush, book 2 in the Wild Cards series\nRelated: Better Than Perfect\nWhen the only girl you want is the one you can\u2019t have\u2026\nBad boy Vic Salazar breaks all the rules except one: Don\u2019t make a move on your best friend\u2019s girl. It\u2019s a Guy Code that Vic lives by. It doesn\u2019t matter that he\u2019s had a crush on her for years. Monika Fox is off limits.\nMonika has a secret of her own and when a tragedy throws her and Vic together, the only boy she trusts is the one she shouldn\u2019t confide in. Vic.\nAs Vic struggles to keep his distance, and Monika struggles with her secrets, will their wild connection violate every rule both vowed never to break\u2014about relationships, about friendship, about love?\nI\u2019m a big Simone Elkeles fan, and I enjoyed the first in the series, so I picked this one up shortly after its release date.\nPrior to starting this I was debating whether or not to re-read Better Than Perfect, but considering that novel featured Derek and Ashtyn, and this one featured Vic and Monika, I figured it would stand on its own.\nLike Better Than Perfect, this book had problems for me\u2026\nI didn\u2019t like Monika, which was a huge drama for me, because I have to like a female character to connect with the novel. My main issue with her was that she was never introduced as a unique character. She was introduced as Trey\u2019s girlfriend and then a character under the control of her parents and her illness. She was never introduced as having any really likable qualities \u2013 I found her to be very \u201cyoung\u201d and incredibly hard to connect to.\nThe whole \u201cbook likes girl, girl likes boy, we\u2019ve been friends for ages\u201d is a story line I don\u2019t particularly like. The problem with a pre-established relationship is that the reader doesn\u2019t get to see the two characters meet and come together as a duo. Instead the reader is thrown into the story and expected to automatically believe that something has happened before, we just didn\u2019t get to experience it.\nI had the same problem in Jennifer E Smith\u2019s Hello, Goodbye, and Everything in Between \u2013 there was pre-existing relationship there, but because I didn\u2019t experience the two characters falling in love, I just couldn\u2019t believe it. The same thing happened in Wild Crush. I understood that Trey was Monika\u2019s boyfriend and Vic was a long time friend, but it didn\u2019t feel real to me, because I didn\u2019t read about it happening. Instead it all felt forced and unbelievable.\nBecause of that, I didn\u2019t like and couldn\u2019t sympathise with the characters. There was a lot of whining going on and when I wasn\u2019t annoyed with the whining, I was annoyed because I couldn\u2019t understand where their emotions were coming from.\nI\u2019m still a big Simone Elkeles fan, but I\u2019m starting to think that she maybe peaked with her Perfect Chemistry series.\nThis entry was posted in Book Reviews and tagged 2 stars, book blogger, book review, contemporary, ebook, love, romance, simone elkeles, young adult. Bookmark the permalink.\n3 Responses to Book Review: Wild Crush by Simone Elkeles\nWendy Waters says:\nWhy don\u2019t you read some \u201cgrown-up\u201d novels? These reviews are all starting to sound pretty much the same and is it any wonder? The plots are similar.\nJodie @ Words Read & Written says:\nHaha they are guilty pleasures \ud83d\ude42\nNaomi Hop says:\nIt\u2019s hard to love a book when you don\u2019t like the main characters. A shame that happened for you in this one!",

        "title": "statistics, vaccines, and viral evolution | [ weird things ]",
        "raw_content": "statistics, vaccines, and viral evolution\nResearchers recommend a flu shot even in years when it's not very effective. Why? Because it slows the spread of the virus.\nHow many times have you heard people tell you that flu vaccines are a waste of time because they still end up getting the flu anyways? And considering that about 5% to 20% of people in the U.S. could get the flu every year, depending on the severity of the strain, the number of vaccinations and exposure to the contagion in large and concentrated populations, flu shots do seem like a relatively fruitless effort at first. However, there\u2019s a caveat to the anecdotal tales of people getting their annual vaccinations, then coming down with the flu anyway. Rather then getting the full blown flu, they\u2019re much more likely to get a really bad cold or a respiratory virus for which a flu shot provides no defense, self-diagnose themselves as having the flu, then refuse a flu shot and really get lab-confirmed influenza during the next season, which only further reinforces their conclusions about the shot.\nNow, it\u2019s well known that there are plenty of people who really do get a flu shot and still come down with a fully legitimate case of influenza. According to the CDC, the vaccine is about 86% effective in healthy adults under 65 and is obviously less effective for people with compromised immune systems. The referenced study in the fact sheet isn\u2019t just a survey of who got the shot and whether they got the disease or not. It actually tests how well a vaccine does against the virus itself and concluded that when there\u2019s a good match between the strain of influenza in force and the strain in the vaccine, healthy adults stand an almost 9 in 10 chance of not getting sick. If you start including other influenza-like infections and airborne viruses that produce similar symptoms, but are not caused by the influenza virus itself, the efficacy rates plummet but you end up measuring viruses outside the vaccine\u2019s scope and skewing your results.\nIt\u2019s true that there are years where major mismatches between the vaccine and wild strains do occur, but even then, you\u2019re looking at a 60% effectiveness rate, which means you\u2019ll be able to fight the virus 6 times out of 10. So even in a bad year, you get a measurable benefit from the flu shot. The problem is that it might not feel like it because many respiratory viruses have very similar symptoms. Rhinoviruses are so often confused for fully fledged influenza without a laboratory test that even doctors can frequently get the diagnosis wrong and there are symptom guides to help determine which one you may have. Unfortunately, real diseases don\u2019t follow any of those guides and severe colds can feel just as bad as the flu. The point however, is that you\u2019ve been able to help prevent yourself from contracting full blown influenza infections and just because you feel terrible doesn\u2019t mean that you have the flu and your shot was worthless. You simply wouldn\u2019t know that without a lab test.\nAnother interesting bit of science is a recent experiment done by NIH scientists which shows that vaccines can actually help steer influenza\u2019s evolution in a direction favorable for us. Our immune systems recognize the proteins of the virion\u2019s capsid (the part of the virus that contains its genetic material) and attack. Mutations that change the way the proteins are arranged can confuse our immune cells and let the infection take place and when our immune cells have been tempered with a vaccine, the selective pressures in our body change how the protein coat of the influenza virus is shaped. And while it sounds as if we\u2019re making it more potent, it\u2019s not really what\u2019s happening. Instead, the virus becomes harder to transmit. It\u2019s less infections. When the mutated virions were injected back into unvaccinated mice used by the researchers, they quickly evolved back to more spreadable forms. The only variable between the groups of mice being studied was the vaccine. In a write-up for Discovery News, lead researcher Jonathan Yewdell summed up his results thusly\u2026\n\u2018We want to box flu in as much as we can. With more antibody pressure from vaccinated people, it\u2019s got to bind tighter, and the virus is not so happy.\u2019\nSo now the big question. If the vaccines really do help against influenza, why not create one for colds and end the respiratory misery of flu and cold season? Well, unfortunately for us, there are so many rhinovirus variants, a vaccine for the common cold would be highly inefficient. Sadly, suffering from bad colds is going to continue for the foreseeable future. And while on the surface of things, you may wonder what\u2019s the point if you may still have to endure misery anyway, keep in mind that influenza can trigger pneumonia and pose a lethal threat to people with compromised or weak immune systems while worsening existing heart conditions. That\u2019s what you\u2019re really defending against when you get a flu shot, not from having a lousy week or two every winter. And, of course, to make the virus less of a menace over the long term with selective pressure from our trained and tempered immune systems primed with vaccine induced antibodies.\nSee: Hensley, S., et. al, (2009).

        "raw_content": "Officials: French police attacker pledged allegiance to IS\nPARIS (AP) \u2014 A man who stabbed a police commander and police administrator to death at their home in a Paris suburb pledged loyalty to the leader of the Islamic State group and had a list of other targets, including rappers, journalists, police officers and public officials, the Paris prosecutor said Tuesday.\nProsecutor Francois Molins said attacker Larossi Abballa made the declaration of allegiance to Islamic State leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi in exchanges with officers during a three-hour standoff Monday night in the suburb of Magnanville, about 35 miles (55 kilometers) west of Paris. He was eventually killed by police.\nAbballa was responding to IS calls to \"kill non-believers where they live,\" and with their families, Molins said. IS news agency Amaq cited an unnamed source as saying an IS fighter carried out the attack and prosecutor's office spokeswoman Agnes Thibault-Lecuivre said French authorities have \"no reason\" to doubt the claim.\nMolins said Abballa stabbed Jean-Baptiste Salvaing, 42, a police commander in the Paris suburb of Les Mureaux, outside his home late Monday. He then went inside and took Salvaing's partner and 3-year-old son hostage. He killed the woman, who was a police administrator in the suburb of Mantes-la-Jolie, but did not harm the boy, Molins said.\nAbballa recorded a 12-minute video related to the attack and posted it on Facebook, Molins said, but he did not provide further details or confirm an earlier report from a police official who said Abballa posted the video on Facebook's live-streaming service, Facebook Live.\nMolins said three people \u2014ages 27, 29 and 44 \u2014 were detained Tuesday in the investigation. He did not provide any other details.\nFrench President Francois Hollande said earlier Tuesday that it was \"incontestably a terrorist act\" and that France faces a threat \"of a very large scale.\"\nThe country has been on particularly high alert as it hosts Europe's top sporting event, the monthlong European Championship soccer tournament, and is still under a state of emergency after the November IS attacks in Paris that killed 130 people.\nHollande held an emergency security meeting Tuesday.\n\"France is not the only country concerned (by the terrorist threat), as we have seen, again, in the United States, in Orlando,\" he said.\nAbballa, 25, was from Mantes-la-Jolie and was sentenced in 2013 to three years in prison for recruiting fighters for jihad in Pakistan, according to two police officials. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to be publicly named discussing investigations.\nA resident of the apartment building where Abballa lived, who did not want to give his name, said police raided it early Tuesday.\nNeighborhood resident Henriette Yenge, who lives and works near the building, said she would say hello to Abballa when he went to the mosque around the corner.\n\"He was a neighborhood kid,\" she said. \"I was surprised it was him. It's sad to see things like that.\"\nA Facebook profile bearing the name Larossi Abballa \u2014 which vanished from the internet early Tuesday \u2014 showed a photo of a smiling, bearded man. Two recent posts featured videos critical of Israel and Saudi Arabia. The last publicly available post was a mock-up of the European Championship logo, highlighting what the poster said were masonic and occult symbols.\n\"Some will say we see evil everywhere!\" Abballa said in a message posted about 18 hours before the attack.\nOn Tuesday, Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve visited the police station in Les Mureaux where Salvaing worked. He said more than 100 people seen as potential threats have been arrested in France this year, including in recent weeks.\nFrance, like other countries in Europe, has seen a series of stabbings aimed at police officers or soldiers and carried out by Muslim radicals.\nMonday's attack shook police officers, and Cazeneuve said they would be allowed to take home their service weapons.\n\"Today every police officer is a target,\" Yves Lefebvre of police union Unite SGP Police-FO told The Associated Press. He says attackers are \"professionalizing\" and can now find police in their homes.\nIn Paris, the Eiffel Tower was lit up Monday night in the colors of a rainbow to honor victims of Saturday's mass shooting at a gay nightclub in Orlando, Florida, that killed at least 49 people. The gunman declared his allegiance to IS in phone calls to police, but his motives remain unclear.",

And while the water towers have been an iconic part of the city skyline for over a century, the structures make it easy for pathogens and even dead animals to congregate and infiltrate the city\u2019s drinking water. According to the report, most building owners do not inspect and clean water tanks on a regular basis, despite newly updated health codes that require annual filings. City & State mapped more than 13,000 water tank inspection reports from the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH), letting the public know for the first time if and when a building\u2019s tank has been inspected and whether bacteria was found. Last year, just over 3,520 buildings with water tanks filed proof of inspection.\nHas your building\u2019s water tank been inspected?\nCool Listings, Interiors, Midtown West\nPre-war penthouse with a water tower atop its terrace asks $2.5M in Midtown West\nBy Emily Nonko, Mon, July 31, 2017\nNow that we\u2019re in the dog days of summer, nothing looks more appealing than a spacious, well-designed roof deck that just happens to have a water tower perched above it.

        "raw_content": "David's Story \"Hope Dealer\"\n\"I am in long-term recovery, and what that means for me is I have not used drugs or alcohol since January 31st of 2009. And, because of that, I have gone from dealing dope to dealing hope.\"\nI was abused emotionally, sexually and physically as a child. That abuse led to a struggle with mental health issues and anger, which led me to finding escape in drugs and violence. I dropped out of high school because it got in the way of my partying and turned 21 in prison. When I left prison, my lifestyle not only continued but became much worse. Over the next 15 years I would be homeless, in and out of jails, rehabs and the hospital multiple times. I would die more times than I can count on one hand and would lose more friends to addiction than I can count on my fingers and toes.\nThere were many turning points in my struggle to get sober. The major turning point was after I moved to Springfield in 2001 to get away from drugs and dealing; a drug deal had gone bad. I began college and was working at a local restaurant. During this time my dad committed suicide and for various reasons I broke up with the mother of my child. The pain and stress of these two events put me over the edge. I spiraled down into a full blown alcoholic. However, I worked with a Christian man and he and his wife loved me unconditionally even though I was an angry agnostic - they treated me like gold. I slowly started to go to church with them off and on, but I was still a hypocrite, hiding my alcoholism.\nThe final breaking point was when I pulled out of a bar late one night, very drunk. This was six months of still doubting God. I saw a cop pull out after me. I knew if I got a DUI I would be pulled out of my practicum and would not be able to finish my master's degree. So I said, \"Okay, God, if you are real, make the cop go away and I will go to church every Sunday. \" The cop continued to follow me. So then I said, \"Okay, God, if you make him go away I will stop drinking for good.\" Every time I turned a corner I added something to my \"list\" of what I would stop doing. By the last turn into my driveway, I told God if he showed himself I would quit smoking, drinking, having premarital sex, fighting and cussing. On my last turn the cop drove off.\nI passed out in my car and woke up the next day and remembered everything from the night before, which was rare. But the I heard that voice, 'You aren't gonna do this so don't even try.' So I showered and I was off to the big super bowl party to drink. On the drive to the party, I was flipping through radio stations and the radio came to dead spot. Then suddenly a Christian song came on, and the first words out of speaker were, \"I wish you could see me know, I wish I could show you how, I 'm not who I was .\" I immediately started balling my eyes out, and heard a voice I never had. God said, \"You can do this.\" I had to pull over I was crying so hard, and I haven't drank, done drugs or smoked since that moment.\nToday I have four college degrees. I am a counselor who specializes in co-occurring disorders, working with the Greene County Drug Court program through Preferred Family Healthcare. I sit on multiple boards and coalitions. I have the great fortune to speak across the state in training sessions, groups, churches, schools, communities and conferences.\nIn 2012, I started a nonprofit called Better Life in Recovery (BLiR). Our mission is to deal hope and foster dignity in those who struggle with substance use and mental health issues through community service, education and awareness events that celebrate people in long-term recovery. In 2012 we held one event. This year we are on pace to hold over 100 events and donate over 5,000 hours of community service to the communities we live in. That is what people in recovery do!\nThanks to finding hope, faith in something other than myself (God) and becoming a vital part of my community I have been able to change my life and work with hundreds of others to give them support and encouragement as they changed their own lives. Today I have an amazing family, a career, and a passion for living each day not only to make myself better but to improve the lives of those around me. I have found a better life in recovery, and I live to share the power of recovery with others!\nIn 2016, David was voted in as the vice chair of the state advisory council on alcohol and drug abuse and Better Life In Recovery opened Springfield's first recovery community center under. The center will offer fun, fellowship, and resources. The center will also be offering classes on life skills, employment, exercise, nutrition, meditation, as well as faith based recovery support groups and smart recovery.\n(For more information on Better Life in Recovery: www.betterlifeinrecovery.com )",

Stearns\nNew types and levels of global education are developing within American higher education for several reasons, none of them particularly obscure. American students will almost certainly be involved in rising levels of global interaction\u2014often in their work, at least sometimes in their leisure, and always in their citizenship. Moreover, expanding global connections, combined with obvious shifts in the global balance of power, make it clear that China, India, Brazil, and other regions, in addition to Europe, will strongly shape our national future. Contemporary American students will have to develop a greater awareness of diverse parts of the globe than was expected of their counterparts of a generation ago, and they will probably have to adjust to some modifications to the idea of the United States as the sole superpower.\nAt the same time, many American students\u2014amid great variety\u2014are rather parochial in their experience and education, which creates a very real gap between the world taking shape around them and their own intellectual comfort zone. Lack of facility in a foreign language is the most glaring sign of the limitations of student preparation, but there are others. It is not possible to rely on students to bring a great deal to college in the way of relevant global training, such as knowledge of geography or comparative politics, which is the second main reason global education gains, or should gain, increasing attention. Better preparation for a global future can and should embrace real discussion of the drawbacks and challenges of current global trends. There need be no blanket endorsement, and indeed a balanced assessment provides one of the links between global and liberal education. Assumptions of all sorts, both hostile and enthusiastic, need to be critically assessed.\nGlobal education embraces, of course, a multitude of facets. Study abroad experiences, for example, can make important contributions to global awareness, particularly as these experiences reorient from an excessively European focus. Even with further encouragement, however, there are limits to how many students study abroad can attract, so too much reliance on this outlet will not get the job done. Enhanced recruitment of international students, when combined with careful mixing with Americans in classes and student life alike, can be a real help. New uses of technology, to link to classes at international universities, should play a growing role. And there is increasing interest in dual degrees and other collaborations with international students that can have direct educational benefits for American undergraduates.\nBut no effort to provide a global education can possibly succeed without a solid curricular base, which must be the focus of any discussion of the relationship between global and liberal education. Considerable attention must go to programs that serve students for whom global issues constitute a major focus, and there are clearly liberal-educational opportunities here. Because globalization itself is a multifaceted process, embracing contacts ranging from trade to culture and from the environment to health, a state-of-the-art global affairs major becomes a significantly interdisciplinary endeavor, always remembering that language training and discussion of international relations continue to have strong roles to play. A dozen or more disciplines can be (actively and) usefully engaged in shaping and staffing concentrations of this sort, which, happily, at least for the moment, also draw in sizeable numbers of interested students.\nGlobal education, like its liberal counterpart, also seeks contact with students for whom global interests do not leap to the fore. Through changes in general education to permit an explicit global component, and through proposals for \"global across the curriculum\" experiments that would return students to explorations of global issues later in their undergraduate careers, proponents of global education urge the importance of bringing all students into some contact with global components. Like proponents of liberal education, they seek to have an extensive impact on the undergraduate curriculum, ideally at several junctures. Here, then, is where some friction can emerge between proponents of the two visions of undergraduate education.\nGeorge Mason University's current general education program, adopted in 2001, includes a global affairs category. According to the guidelines, courses in the category should deal with \"causes and consequences of change in significant global issues.\" They may deal with a specific topic, or with cultures \"outside the contemporary Western world\" by \"incorporating comparisons of several cultures.\" Presumably any course in the category will convey the \"interconnectedness, difference, and diversity that are central to understanding and operating in a global society.\"\nThis new global affairs category was introduced as part of a program that was resoundingly justified, overall, in terms of liberal education. It essentially replaced earlier requirements in areas like philosophy. The faculty accepted the changes surprisingly readily, but it turns out that this was partly because some of them sincerely imagined that they could pour old curricular wine into the new bottle. Not surprisingly in retrospect, the category was soon flooded with course proposals on virtually any non-American humanities or social science topic that could be imagined. Entries included topics such as Platonic philosophy and the history of the Roman republic. Most of these courses, in turn, had been listed under the prior general education scheme, and of course it was not hard to defend them in the classic terms of liberal education. But they simply did not qualify as global education. However worthy they may have been in other respects, they did not address significant global issues; they did not seriously embrace comparison; they had little if anything to do with conveying interconnectedness or diversity. Obviously, the courses were put forward for several reasons, including sincere faculty devotion to the topics and a desire to capture enrollments. Nonetheless, the proposals indicated some real confusion about what global education entails, and how it requires some readjustments from standard liberal education fare.\nA good bit of liberal education in the United States, particularly on the humanities side of the house, has been devoted to exposing students to the special beauties and intricacies of a Western canon. Some liberal education exemplars, particularly in certain small-college settings, continue to tout this goal, seeking to define the educated student in terms of the fullest possible exposure to Western history and culture. But again, however desirable it may be, this is simply not a global goal. It does not explicitly emphasize either the data or the habits of mind that serve a global vision.\nIn theory, liberal education staples that highlight purely Western classics might still be offered along with a global program. Yet apart from a certain degree of tension in principle, the real issue here concerns the amount of time available in a general education program. Is there space for an engineering or business student to fulfill the global goals and still take a classic course in Western civilization or philosophy? It is not often going to be possible to resolve the Western-global conundrum by simply insisting that students do both. Some genuine reorientation is essential.\nOther curricular issues are less stark. Global education places a new premium on language training, with important non-Western offerings added to the mix and, ideally, with renewed attention to precollegiate foreign language exposure. As was true even with Western languages, questions remain about how much to require and how basic language courses can serve the purposes of both training and liberal education. The cultural concomitants of, say, an introductory sequence in Chinese or Arabic might moderate this familiar tension to some extent.\nIn principle, global education demands attention from both the social sciences and the humanities. The most common response to the global invocation emphasizes training in cultural diversity\u2014exposure to at least one culture different from one's own. But there is also an urgent need for work on global systems\u2014the development and operation of contemporary political and economic contacts that powerfully shape the world. This dual focus on the cultural and the systemic is not at all incompatible with the goals of liberal education, which are also multidisciplinary. But it does make additional claims on course time and, therefore, raises the question of how much conventional general education material must be cleared away or restructured.\nObviously, the basic point is that some reorientation of the most familiar definitions of liberal education is essential if the goals of global education are to be met. There are conflicts over the time available for necessary courses as well as, to some extent, over basic purposes. Global education is not simply liberal education business as usual, and for some faculty members the choices will not be easy.\nIn the most fundamental sense, however, a fuller turn to global education amply fulfills classic goals of liberal education. The necessary innovations do not strike at the liberal core. The key to reconciliation involves asking proponents of global education to define their own basic learning outcomes.\nGlobal education, even at an introductory general education level, desirably exposes students to a considerable range of data. One hopes that the educated American student will know something about Islam, something about the globalization of science, something about global disease threats and responses, something about the economic relationship between the United States and China, something about the complex relationship between the European Union and globalization\u2014and this list can easily be expanded. The coverage list is where the tensions with a Western-centered definition of what every educated person should know emerge most strongly. But beneath such lists, and ultimately demanding far more concerted attention, the global education agenda pushes for two fundamental habits of mind that are readily compatible with any but the most hidebound understanding of the desired outcomes of a liberal education.\nFirst, the globally educated student should gain experience and skill in comparing different cultures and systems. This is, after all, the approach that ultimately undergirds the common insistence on exposure to international cultural diversity. Teaching students to expect to need to compare (rather than to assume a universality for their own experiences and values), helping them learn how to do it, and encouraging a comparative openness and orientation that can last beyond the classroom\u2014all of this is fundamental to the kind of analysis living in a global environment requires. It involves the need to encounter diversity, but it also encourages recognition of unexpected, sometimes beneath-the-surface similarities; comparison cuts two ways, and undue emphasis simply on differences can miss the mark.\nSecond, the globally educated student should gain experience and skill in dealing with relationships between the local and the global. The phrase, of course, is familiar enough, but the category needs further attention pedagogically; it has been less thoroughly probed than the injunction to learn to compare. With comparison we have some experience not just in presenting relevant materials, but in actually accelerating the process by which students move from an initial temptation simply to juxtapose two cases, to genuine and active comparative analysis; we are not so far along in identifying the learning processes associated with an evaluation of local-global causations. But it is obviously true that human lives are powerfully shaped by interactions between local and global forces, and that both humanities and social science disciplines can promote the necessary analysis by generating some range of historical and contemporary case studies. Again, the ultimate goal is to prepare students to apply classroom experience to local-global combinations, whose existence we can confidently predict but whose specifics await the future.\nNeither of these global habits of mind emerges predictably from a typical liberal education outcomes list, but both are fully compatible with such lists. Both, after all, promote the capacity to identify and evaluate student assumptions; both encourage critical thinking. One of the strengths of the global approach, in fact, is that it offers new vantage points for students' exploration of their own values and their own society, as part of the broader global understanding. Though in fact it can be a demanding exercise, helping students see how others view American behaviors and institutions\u2014to understand, not necessarily to accept the contrasts with homegrown assessments\u2014can be one of the most interesting applications of a comparative, local-global approach.\nIn sum, it is both possible and desirable to define liberal education in \"global\" terms. Defining a global liberal education extends the purposes of liberal education itself, and provides additional rationale at a time of some real uncertainty about commitments to the enterprise. It changes the learning outcomes list, but it reinforces the most essential basics. It offers a shared agenda for further pedagogical work and best-practice reports, as we work on to help students develop fundamental cognitive skills. The liberal-global combination does require real, if bounded, readjustments, however, and this means some additional debate and challenge. But it is well worth the effort to prepare students to think more constructively about global issues, and simply to think better in the process. Proponents of global education will benefit from a focus on the core learning outcomes they should be working toward, and their essentially liberal qualities, while proponents of liberal education will benefit from a fuller recognition of the global framework within which our students need to operate.\nPeter N.

        "raw_content": "Beer challenge: La Cumbre, Denver\u2019s Comrade Brewing aim to \u2018Make IPA Clear Again\u2019\nThe Helles Lager is one of four seasonal can releases happening in March at La Cumbre Brewing Co. (Courtesy of La Cumbre Brewing Company)\nMaking America Great Again might be the agenda in Washington, D.C., but locally, La Cumbre Brewing Company is focusing on making IPA clear again.\nLa Cumbre has teamed up with Comrade Brewing Co. of Denver to create its latest beer, Make IPA Clear Again. La Cumbre will be releasing four seasonal cans in March. They are Make IPA Clear Again, Helles Lager, Blackberry Briar and one that La Cumbre president and founder Jeff Erway is keeping close to his chest for now.\nMake IPA Clear Again is a \u201cbig, fruity IPA without jumping on the haze train,\u201d according to the Comrade Brewing website. It is hopped with Citra, Simcoe and Ekuanot in the boil and double dry-hopped with Mosaic, Centennial and Waimea. Helles is a traditional German pale lager, and the Blackberry Briar is a kettle sour ale made with blackberries.\n\u201cI\u2019m friends with the brewer and the owner of Comrade (Brewing Co.),\u201d Erway said. \u201cI feel that they\u2019re making the best hop forward beers in Colorado, and both of our breweries are pretty well-known for making classic West Coast-style IPAs, and we both toyed here and there with the newer East Coast hazy approach to IPAs, but it\u2019s funny; we were kind of tongue-in-cheek poking fun at ourselves for making several beers that were not in any way clear. I just hope, beyond hope, that we get this beer really clear, but I\u2019m pretty confident.\u201d\nThe seasonal can releases will be available at La Cumbre\u2019s brewery at 3313 Girard NE, but La Cumbre will soon be selling and releasing its beers at its new taproom on the West Side. The 2,400-square-foot taproom will be at the southeast corner of Coors and Monta\u00f1o NW. It will feature a large patio, facing east, that will allow patrons to enjoy a good view of the Sandia Mountains.\n\u201cThere\u2019s demographics in that area that tend to be really good,\u201d Erway said. \u201cThe traffic at Coors and Monta\u00f1o \u2026 a lot of people coming back across the river during happy hour, so we are pretty confident that our happy hour is going to be good. The fact is that the West Side, we probably hear it more than anywhere else, that people over there were hoping for us to put up a taproom. We were able to find a taproom location in an area that didn\u2019t have really anything like that. I don\u2019t think we have anything within 7 to 8 minutes\u2019 drive within that specific location. So that really appealed to us.\u201d\nLa Cumbre opened its brewery location in 2011, and Erway felt no urgency in opening another taproom but began looking for a second taproom site in 2013, when La Cumbre was experiencing \u201ctriple-digit growth.\u201d\n\u201cThe fact is I try to take on, despite the fact that I might not be working the 100 hours a week that I was when we opened, despite the fact that I might not be in the brewhouse all the time,\u201d Erway said. \u201cI\u2019m constantly taking on new big projects, and it just seems to be what I like to do and what I am good at. You know, up until this point, I feel like I\u2019ve always had a lot on my plate, so I haven\u2019t pursued it as seriously as I have now, and it just so happens that maybe I wouldn\u2019t be if I hadn\u2019t found this location maybe I\u2019d still be, like, what state are we going into next? What\u2019s the next major beer release we\u2019re going to be doing? But it just so happens that it fell in my lap and it worked for me.\u201d",

        "title": "Are dental implants safe? | Adrian Mullish Dental Care, dentists in Watford",
        "raw_content": "Dental implants are now a highly popular and effective solution for restoring missing teeth. They offer a long term, comfortable way to replace anything from a single missing tooth to an entire arch. They are also an attractive alternative to traditional dentures, particularly for those who have been dissatisfied with the fit or feel of dentures.\nWhen it comes to looking after your teeth, it is natural to have questions \u2013 and for many patients a key consideration when it comes to dental implants is whether or not they are safe. To help put your mind at rest, we\u2019ve answered some of your most common questions.\nIn the simplest terms, dental implants are replacements for the natural roots of teeth that are missing or have become too damaged to support crowns or bridges. They form a permanent foundation to hold natural looking replacement teeth, from a single tooth to a complete arch. Depending on the number of teeth to be replaced, the number of implants required will vary. Whilst a single tooth will need an implant of its own, bridges or even entire arches will require more \u2013 typically five or six.\nDental implants are made of medical grade biocompatible titanium. This particular material is chosen because it has the unique ability to fuse with the surrounding bone, providing a level of strength comparable with the original root. When properly fitted by an experienced dental implant specialist such as Dr. Adrian Mullish, these replacement roots are as effective and secure as the natural roots they have replaced \u2013 if not stronger \u2013 and pose absolutely no risk to the patient.\nDental implants are generally a good choice to consider when you have missing or damaged teeth and your dentist has advised you that other treatments are not possible, usually because of damage to the roots. A benefit of dental implants is that they allow permanent replacement teeth to be fitted, rather than opting to have repairs done which can fail in the future. Because implants provide such a strong and secure base for the replacement teeth, many future dental problems and complications that can arise as a result of failing teeth can be avoided. Dental implants do not compromise otherwise healthy teeth and roots in the same way as crowns and bridges can, meaning they can also help you to retain your remaining natural teeth for much longer.\nIt is important to understand that missing teeth really should be replaced. Over time, gaps can cause the natural shape of the jaw to change and the bone to weaken. As well as making you appear older, this can also cause problems with speaking, eating and lead to other complications. All of these can be prevented with professionally fitted dental implants. With this in mind, it is worth noting that the risks associated with such problems far outweigh any risk posed by the implants and related procedures.\nAre there any risks with dental implant surgery?\nHere at Adrian Mullish Dental Care, dental implant surgery is conducted by Harvard trained dental implant specialist Dr. Adrian Mullish. With his gentle, painless approach to dentistry, he has transformed the smiles and lives of many hundreds of patients over the last twelve years.\nWhilst most patients will experience nothing more than minimal discomfort, it is important to remember that dental implant treatment is a minor surgical procedure and can be different for every patient. With the experience and expertise of Adrian and his team, you can be assured that the risks associated with the procedure are absolutely minimal. You\u2019ll also be offered exceptional after care too, to help avoid any discomfort during the healing process.\nGenerally speaking, the biggest risk for dental implants is posed by gum disease, which over time can cause damage to the gums and bone. To ensure that this is does not pose any problem, Adrian will conduct a thorough examination of your mouth for any signs of gum disease before your implant treatment begins and treat if required so you can be sure of success.\nTo find out more about getting dental implants or to book a consultation now, call Adrian Mullish Dental Care on Watford 01923 231861.",

        "raw_content": "Former Mascot Reveille VIII Passes Away\nSusan \"Sue\" Owen '94 June 25, 2018 7:52 PM updated: July 20, 2018 1:26 PM\nBy Sam Peshek, Texas A&M University Marketing & Communications\nFormer Texas A&M University mascot and \u201cFirst Lady of Aggieland\u201d Reveille VIII, who served from August 2008 until her retirement to Texas A&M\u2019s Stevenson Companion Animal Life-Care Center in May 2015, passed away Monday, June 25. She was 12 years old.\nVeterinarians and student caretakers at the Stevenson Center said she fell ill in the early morning of Saturday, June 23, and was taken to the Texas A&M College of Veterinary Medicine & Biomedical Sciences Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital.\nDr. Kate Creevy, associate professor of small animal internal medicine, said, \u201cShe had a disease that involved her liver, her spleen, and many of her muscles. We could see this was a source of pain for her and not something that we wanted to ask her to fight. A final diagnosis will be determined and reported shortly.\u201d\nReveille\u2019s primary care doctor, clinical associate professor and chief medical officer, Dr. Stacy Eckman \u201901, in the Department of Small Animal Clinical Sciences, said, \u201cThe critical care team and the internal medicine team that cared for her most recently did everything they could to find out what was going on and keep her as comfortable as possible. She was quite the lady. I went by to see her Sunday night in ICU and she was just like she always was\u2014just such a good dog. Even sick, she was regal\u2014she just had that air about her.\u201d\nDr. Eleanor Green, the Carl B. King Dean of the Texas A&M College of Veterinary Medicine & Biomedical Sciences, commended the veterinary team for administering her care.\n\u201cWe, in the College of Veterinary Medicine & Biomedical Sciences, are profoundly saddened by the passing of Reveille VIII today. We are honored that she lived with us in the Stevenson Companion Animal Life-Care Center during her retirement, where she enjoyed relaxing while still able to hear the familiar campus sounds, including those from Kyle Field. We are also gratified to have been able to provide all of her health care needs throughout her life in the Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital. In the end, after veterinary specialists did all they could for her in her final days, the decision was made to prevent her from suffering. She deserved that after being such a great First Lady of Texas A&M.\u201d\n\u201cI would like to thank the students and staff at the Texas A&M College of Veterinary & Biomedical Sciences and the Stevenson Companion Animal Life-Care Center and the Corps of Cadets for providing the former First Lady of Aggieland a life of care and comfort so deserved by one our institution\u2019s finest ambassadors,\u201d Texas A&M University President Michael K. Young said. \u201cEach Reveille for the last 87 years has played an important role in making our university feel like home for students around the world, and Reveille VIII fulfilled that role exceptionally well.\u201d\nReveille VIII will be buried alongside the previous seven Reveilles in Kyle Field Plaza on the north side of the stadium.\n\u201cIt has been a privilege for the entire staff of the Stevenson Companion Animal Life-Care Center to care for Reveille VIII after her retirement,\u201d Stevenson Center associate director Ellie Greenbaum said. \u201cReveille was truly loved by the center staff, present and past, and has brought immense joy and love into our lives. I speak for everyone at the Stevenson Center when I say that Reveille proudly embodied the Aggie spirit and enriched our lives tremendously.\u201d\nReveille VIII, a collie from Topeka, Kansas, made her debut as Texas A&M\u2019s mascot at Kyle Field during the opening game of the 2008 Aggie football season against Arkansas.\n\u201cReveille VIII is more than just a dog, or even a mascot. She\u2019s a lady, a former student, a loyal companion, and a perfect representation of why Texas A&M is so great,\u201d said Ryan Kreider \u201917, a former mascot corporal who cared for her. \u201cShe was truly a part of my family, and I\u2019m forever grateful to have held the honor of serving as her handler.\u201d\n\u201cOur family was so blessed to have had the opportunity to spend time with Rev VIII since our arrival here in 2015,\u201d said Dr. Danny Pugh, vice president for student affairs. \u201cWe loved having her in our home. She was dignified, distinguished, and I will fondly remember time spent petting her while sitting together on the kitchen floor. Pope Francis is reported to have told a boy that dogs go to heaven and I am certain Rev VIII is there now, with Rev I through VII, and they are leading a host of Aggies closely watching the scoreboard.\u201d\nThe Reveille tradition began in 1931 when members of Texas A&M\u2019s Corps of Cadets hit a small dog on their way back to campus from Navasota. Pets were not allowed on campus, but the cadets picked up the injured dog and cared for her and hid her away in a dorm room. Her cover was blown the next morning when \u201cReveille\u201d was played by a bugler to wake the cadets and she began barking, earning the name Aggies around the world know her by today. Reveille I was named the university\u2019s official mascot the following football season when she led the band onto Kyle Field. The first Reveille served as mascot for 13 years until her death in 1944.\nReveille II, a Shetland Sheepdog donated by a Texas A&M graduate, made her appearance on campus eight years after Reveille I passed away. Reveille III was the first full-blood Rough Collie, and every Reveille since then has belonged to that breed. The most current Reveille is Reveille IX, who was introduced in May 2015.\nEach Reveille mascot since 1960 has been cared for by a mascot corporal, a sophomore cadet in Company E-2.\n\u201cWe are deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Reveille VIII today. She was a beautiful mascot for our university and represented Texas A&M with grace and charm wherever she went. As with each Reveille, it was an honor for the Corps of Cadets and Company E-2 to take on the responsibility for Reveille VIII\u2019s security and well-being for nearly eight years,\u201d Corps of Cadets Commandant Brig. Gen. (Ret.) Joe Ramirez \u201979 said. \u201cShe enriched the lives of all the cadets who had the privilege of working with her during her reign as \u2018The First Lady of Aggieland\u2019 and always made all of the members of the Corps of Cadets proud to have her among them on the Quad. She will be deeply missed by all of us who had the honor and privilege of knowing her and working with her.\u201d\nThe Stevenson Companion Animal Life-Care Center was established in 1993 within the veterinary college as a place for pet owners to send their animals when the owners pass away or are no longer able to care for them. It is staffed by a team of veterinarians, caretakers, and student workers who live on site to ensure 24-hour care and company for residents.\n\u201cThe Stevenson Center was honored to be asked by Interim President (Mark A.) Hussey to be the retirement home for Reveille VII when she retired in 2015,\u201d said Stevenson Center director Dr. Sonny Presnal \u201957. \u201cReveille was still seen by visitors to the center and she has always been accessible to the cadets of E-2. Reveille VIII has been a delight to be part of the Stevenson Center family for the past three years.\u201d\nDetails on burial proceedings are forthcoming.\nStacy Eckman '01\nEllie Greenbaum\nJoe Ramirez '79\nSonny Presnal '57\nStevenson Companion Animal Life-Care Center",

        "raw_content": "Not in Front of the Corgis: Secrets of Life Behind the Royal Curtains Kindle Edition\nby Brian Hoey (Author)\nfrom $96.85 1 New from $96.85\nThe Windsors are England's most famous family, but what are they really like when they're out of the public gaze? Behind closed doors in every Royal residence, from Buckingham Palace to Clarence House, there are two families - one upstairs and one down - and nobody knows a Royal quite like a Royal servant, intimately acquainted as they are with every quirk, foible and eccentricity. And there are a fair few! This is the inside story of the Royal Family through the eyes of those who know them best, a sneak peek behind the ermine-trimmed curtains to reveal what they really get up to in their spare time. Are they just like us? Or are they are a world apart? Here are the answers to everything we've ever wondered about the Royals: which programmes does the Queen watch on TV? What music did the Queen Mother listen to? Who can drive and who can't? What is it like to attend a dinner party thrown by Charles and Camilla? Who are the most popular (and most unpopular!) Royals to work for and why? Not in Front of the Corgis is the real Upstairs Downstairs - a unique and fascinating collection of all the secrets you ever wanted to know about the Royal Family.\nThe Fall of the House of Murdoch: Fourteen Days That Ended a Media Dynasty\nFull Moon over Noah's Ark: An Odyssey to Mount Ararat and Beyond\nPleasure and Privilege: Life in France, Naples, and America 1770-1790\nDoctor in the House (Doctor, Doctor! Book 2)\nAlex Rudd\nHow Not to be a Doctor: And Other Essays\nJohn Launer\nBrian Hoey has been a writer and broadcaster for over 40 years, covering countless Royal events, including the wedding of Charles and Diana in 1981 and Princess Diana's funeral in 1997. He has written over 25 books, many of them about the British Royal Family given his extensive access. They have all been serialized in leading international newspapers.\nPublisher: Biteback Publishing; Reprint edition (13 October 2011)\nASIN: B0078XG52O\n#98 in Kindle Store > Kindle eBooks > Politics & Social Sciences > Social Sciences > Popular Culture\nThe Laughing Policeman: My Brilliant Career in the New Zealand Police (The Laughing Policeman Series Book 1)\nLondon Call-Out: Confessions Of A Doctor In The Capital (Doctor, Doctor!

Maybe my expectations were too high.\nBeverley Chong\nIt's simply a cut and paste of all his previous books about the British Royazls. Not worth buying.\n3.0 out of 5 starsInteresting view of \"upstairs and downstairs\"\nI found most of the Royal family to be a boring lot! Wouldn't recommend it except to an ardent monarchist.\nMisterHobgoblin\n3.0 out of 5 starsWe'll never be royal\nBrian Hoey's thing is that he comes at the Royal Family from the perspectives of their servants. This, as one might imagine, gives a very particular viewpoint. For example, whilst there are plenty of little anecdotes that show how fussy and demanding the Royals can be (Prince Charles, for example, insisting that his meals end with cheese and biscuits with the biscuits warmed to exactly his preferred temperature), the examples are told with an air of awe rather than ridicule. It also means that the text concentrates on matters such as clothing, food, cleaning and payscales rather than on matters of state. Of course, that's not a criticism, merely an observation.\nThe writing itself is plain and journalistic (that's a euphemism for not very good). There is no real narrative sense and details are mentioned in one chapter that are then introduced as though they were new material in subsequent chapters. It does get repetitive, especially with regard to the pay and progression This is also the material which will date quickly and render the text obsolete.\nAs a lifelong public servant, find it interesting to see how other departments operate. The Royal Household, despite its quirks and focus on delivery of domestic tasks, sounds very much a government department; the palaces sound very much like office blocks sharing space with relatively modestly sized Royal apartments; and the Royal roles sound quite straitjacketed and governed by protocol and expectations. These are not necessarily new insights but the way in which they are illustrated was interesting enough if, by the end, somewhat repetitive.\nThis is a light, frothy read. I guess it didn't take long to write and it doesn't take long to read. It is amusing in places and passes the time, but it is unlikely to offer any new insight into the monarchy as an institution, although it does shine a light on one or two of the personalities on both sides of the green baize door.\n1.0 out of 5 starsUgh...if you want to know the minutiae of royal finances\nI wanted to tales of what goes on behind the scenes, but instead I got an accounting - how much money individual royals have, how much they spend, how much their houses cost, and an endless listing of household positions and their salary.\nMarti Seifert-frakes\n3.0 out of 5 starsI was a little disappointed.\nThis book wasn't what I thought it would be....I thought it would be loaded with stories about the various members of the Royal Family, full of behind the scenes antidotes, but it wasn't. This book was about the salaries & cost of running the \"Firm\". And stories of how the \"Family\" treat their servants. So, I was a little disappointed.\n1.0 out of 5 starsDon't Bother\nWriting is disorganized and confused, and stories often do not make sense. Very little new here. No photographs. Save your money.\n1.0 out of 5 starsBig Disappointment\nI was expecting so much from this book, but I was disappointed to discover that much of it is devoted to servants and costs: you will learn who does what job in Buckingham Palace, who ranks above whom in the royal servant world, how funding is allotted to support the royal family, etc., but precious little about the royals themselves. The few royalty \"teaser\" questions listed on the back cover are about all the information you will pick up about the royal family. Sadly, the title is the best part of this book.\nWhile the author did do a good job of explaining the ins and outs of British royalty and the staff, I feel it was a bit overdone.

        "raw_content": "andersenstories.com | homepage | andersen's fairy tales | luck may lie in a pin\nLuck may lie in a pin Fairytale\nA Story Told For My Young American Friends\nI'll tell you a story about luck. All of us know what it is to be lucky. Some know good luck day in, day out; others only now and then in their lucky seasons; and there are some people who know it only once in a lifetime. But luck comes at some time or other to us all.\nNow I needn't tell you what everyone knows, that it's God who puts little children in their mother's lap; maybe in a nobleman's castle, maybe in a workingman's home, or maybe in the open field where the cold wind blows. What you may not know, though it's just as true, is that when God leaves the child he always leaves it a lucky piece. He doesn't put this where the child is born, but tucks it away in some odd corner of the earth where we least expect it. Yes, you can rest assured that it always turns up, sooner or later, and that is nice to know.\nThis lucky piece may turn out to be an apple. That was the case with one man, a scholar called Newton. The apple fell into his lap, and his luck came with it. If you don't know the story, get someone to tell it to you. I've a different story to tell, about a pear.\nOnce there was a man born poor, bred poor, and married without a penny. By the way, he was a turner by trade, but as he made nothing except umbrella handles and umbrella rings, he earned only enough money to live from hand to mouth.\n\"I'll never find my luck,\" he used to say.\nNow this is a Gospel true story. It really happened. I could name the man's county and his town, but that isn't important. Wild service berries, with their red, sour fruit, grew around his house and garden as if they were the richest ornament. However, in the garden was also a pear tree. It had never borne fruit; yet the man's luck lay hidden in the tree, in the shape of a pear not yet to be seen.\nOne night the wind blew in a terrible gale. In the next town men said that the great mail coach was lifted from one side of the road to the other as easily as a rag, so it was not to be wondered at that a large branch was torn from the pear tree. The branch was brought into the workshop and, just as a joke, the turner made from it wooden pears, big, little, and middle-sized.\n\"For once my tree has borne pears,\" he smiled, and gave them to his children for playthings.\nAmong the necessities of life are umbrellas, especially in lands where it rains a lot. But the turner's family had only one umbrella between them. When the wind blew hard, their umbrella would blow inside out. Sometimes it would break, and luckily the man knew how to mend it. However, with the button and loop that held the umbrella closed, things went from bad to worse. The button would always fly off just as they thought they had the umbrella neatly folded.\nOne day it popped off, and the turner hunted for it everywhere. In a crack of the floor he came across one of the smallest pears he had given his children for a toy.\n\"If I can't find the button,\" he said, \"I'll make this do.\" He fitted a string through it, and the little pear buttoned up the umbrella to perfection. It was the best umbrella fastener that ever was seen.\nThe next time the turner sent umbrella handles and umbrella rings to the city, he added several of the small wooden pears. They were fitted to a few new umbrellas, and put with a thousand others on a ship bound for America. Americans catch on very quickly. They saw that the little pears held better than the other umbrella buttons, and the merchant gave orders that all the umbrellas sent to him henceforth should be fastened with little wooden pears.\nThere was work for you - thousands of pears to be made for all the umbrellas that went to America. The turner turned them out wholesale, until the whole pear tree was used up making little wooden pears. They brought pennies that grew into dollars. There was no end to the money he made.\n\"My luck was in that pear tree all along,\" the man said. Soon he had a great factory with plenty of workmen to help him. Now that he always had time for joke he would say, \"Good luck may lie in a pin.\"\nAnd I who tell this story say so too, for it's a true proverb in Denmark that if you put a white pin in your mouth you'll be invisible. But it must be the right sort of pin, a lucky piece from God's own hand. I have one of them, and whenever I come to America, that new world so far away and yet so near me, I'll always carry that pin. Already my words have gone there. The ocean rolls toward America, and the wind blows that way. Any day I can be where my stories are read, and perhaps see the glitter of ringing gold - the gold that is best of all, which shines in children's eyes, or rings from their lips and the lips of their grown-ups. I and in all my friends' homes, even though they don't see me. I have the white pin in my mouth.\nAnd luck may lie in a pin.\nLykken kan ligge i en pind (Danish)\nDas Gl\u00fcck kann in einem Holzst\u00f6ckchen liegen (German)\nLuck may lie in a pin (English)\nLa suerte puede estar en un palito (Spanish)\nHet geluk kan in een stukje hout liggen (Dutch)",

        "raw_content": "> Riordan Programs Graduation\nLOS ANGELES - The Riordan Programs completed another successful year on Saturday, May 24th, with the graduation of all its programs - Scholars, Healthcare Management, and Fellows Programs.\nThe Scholars Program has 30 senior high school students going to many outstanding colleges and universities across the US. Four students were recipients of Bill Gate's Millennium Scholarship award that provides substantial funding to offset the rising prices of college tuition. The underclassmen enrolled in the Scholars Program had the opportunity to apply for free SAT preparation courses provided by Revolution Prep - a new partner of The Riordan Programs. And beginning next year, new partnerships with organizations like LA Alliance for College Ready High Schools and the Inner City Education Foundation will expand the network of participants for our Scholars Program in the coming years.\nThe Healthcare Management Program enjoyed a fantastic start and finished strong. In completing its first full year, the program featured site visits to Cedars-Sinai, Northridge, St. John\u2019s, and the newly built Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center to expose program participants to the nation\u2019s best healthcare facilities. Executive speakers, academic and career counseling, Harvard case study discussions, and graduate school mentors are but a few of the many benefits provided this past year.\nParticipants in the Fellows Program really embraced the notion of \"setting the bar\" and at the same time, giving back. The 2008 class shattered the previous record of fundraising by collecting over $50K in donations to support scholarships and college admissions activities for participants in the Scholars Program. \"As a class, we believed it was our duty to minimize the barriers the younger generation typically face when applying to college. We know the students and their families can definitely use the money, especially given today's economic climate,\" said Toriana Peete, Class Finance Director.\nFounded in 1987, The Riordan Programs is a pioneering career-based outreach program that motivates high school students, college students and recent college graduates from diverse backgrounds and under-served communities to consider and prepare for careers in management through education, mentorship and professional development. The Riordan Programs has since been recognized as the defining model for such programs. Overall, The Riordan Programs has accomplished many of its goals. The organization expanded its academic and professional network, created more opportunities for its participants, and connected the business community with the leaders of tomorrow.\nUCLA Anderson School of Management, established in 1935, is regarded among the very best business schools in the world. UCLA Anderson faculty are ranked #1 in \"Intellectual Capital\" by BusinessWeek and are renowned for their teaching excellence and research in advancing management thinking. Furthermore, the finance faculty is ranked #1 in research publications in the four leading peer-reviewed journals by the Financial Management Association. Each year, UCLA Anderson provides management education to more than 1,600 students enrolled in MBA, Executive MBA, Fully-Employed MBA and doctoral programs, and to more than 2,000 professional managers through executive education programs. Combining highly selective admissions, varied and innovative learning programs, and a world-wide network of 35,000 alumni, UCLA Anderson develops and prepares global leaders.",

As if she knew, a colleague just sent me this very comprehensive article about the vitamin. I suggest anyone with questions about this much-talked-about sunshine vite read it. The article discusses how much sun we need in order to get that vital dose of D and the factors that affect absorption of D from sunlight: skin color, season, where you live on the planet, and on....\nToday, we understand vitamin D to have a major role in mental and physical health, particularly our bones. Health care providers here on the east coast are discovering that many of their patients are deficient. Ask your health care provider or registered dietitian about whether it makes sense to test your vitamin D levels or to supplement. And note the guidelines for supplementation in the article below. (Keep in mind that it's published by the non-profit Vitamin D Council; however, they do put other organizations' recommendations for supplementation in the article, as well as their own.)\nThe second article that's referenced below is a fabulous review article by Jenn Miller that lists the many benefits of vitamin D as well as the most D-rich foods. Enjoy!\nIn addition to vitamin D, remember that sunshine nourishes us on many levels. The Spring sunshine we experience here in the east, after a long snowy winter, reminds us of rhythm and rebirth. Take in sunshine's nourishment this week.

        "raw_content": "Bernanke says the recession is likely over -- but it won't feel like it\nFederal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke said Tuesday that the Great Recession has \"very likely\" ended -- and as the most famous student of the Great Depression, one would presume that he should know.\nUnfortunately, Bernanke also raised the specter of the so-called jobless recovery, warning that growth may be too tepid to cut the unemployment rate significantly anytime soon.\n\"Even though from a technical perspective the recession is very likely over at this point, it's still going to feel like a very weak economy for some time,\" Bernanke said in a speech at the Brookings Institution in Washington, D.C., Bloomberg reported.\nUnemployment, now at 9.7 percent, will be slow to abate if growth is only \"moderate,\" Bernanke said. Given that the Fed's growth forecast is actually higher than economists' average outlook, the scenario for the nation's jobless is perhaps now even more daunting.\nIn addition to high unemployment, tight credit conditions will make the economy seem weak, even though the downturn has most likely ended, Bernanke said.\nStill, the speech marks Bernanke's most explicit comment that the longest recession in 70 years is probably over. It also echoes remarks made by President of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco Janet Yellen on Monday. \"We face an economy with substantial slack, prospects for only moderate growth, and low and declining inflation,\" Yellen said.\nBernanke's comments came after the Commerce Department said August retail sales grew 2.7 percent -- the best reading in three-and-a-half-years, and ahead of economists' average forecast. True, a large chunk of that came from the \"cash for clunkers\" program -- car and parts sales rose nearly 11 percent -- but even after adjusting for that one-time event, there's no doubt consumers opened their wallets and purses last month.",

        "raw_content": "Army takes a hard look at creating a combat readiness test\nStaff Sgt. Todd Hunnefeld, U.S. Army Reserve combat engineer platoon sergeant for the 374th Engineer Company (Sapper), headquartered in Concord, Calif., carries a \"wounded\" Soldier during a patrol training July 18 as part of a two-week field training exercise known as a Sapper Leader Course Prerequisite Training at Camp San Luis Obispo Military Installation, Calif. The unit is grading its Soldiers on various events to determine which ones will earn a spot on a \"merit list\" to attend the Sapper Leader Course at Fort Leonard Wood, Mo. (U.S. Army photo by Master Sgt. Michel Sauret)\nAs the Army rolls out a new physical assessment for its newest soldiers, the service also is studying the possibility of creating a combat readiness test for troops already in the ranks.\nThe test, if senior Army leaders decide to pursue one, will be one way to assess soldiers' abilities to meet the demands of their jobs after leaving the training environment, said Command Sgt. Maj. David Davenport, the senior enlisted soldier of Training and Doctrine Command.\n\"When we hand them over to the operational force, how do we ensure that they can still perform those high physical demand tasks?\" Davenport said. \"It's about your ability to accomplish your task and how it affects readiness.\"\nThis work comes as senior Army leaders have emphasized the importance of readiness and physical fitness.\nActing Army Secretary Patrick Murphy and Army Chief of Staff Gen. Mark Milley have made readiness their top priority, and Sergeant Major of the Army Dan Dailey has repeatedly called for leaders to do PT with their soldiers. Dailey also is pushing to reduce the number of non-deployable soldiers across the force, especially as the Army gets smaller but the demand for troops around the world keeps getting bigger.\nThe research also lines up with the Army's efforts to integrate women into its combat arms military occupational specialties. Defense Secretary Ash Carter on Dec. 3 lifted all gender-based restrictions on military service, paving the way for women to serve in previously all-male infantry, armor and Special Forces fields and opening nearly 220,000 jobs across the military.\nA combat readiness test would be a way to measure soldiers' physical ability, regardless of gender, Dailey said.\n\"This should be a standards-based Army. If you can fight and win, come on and join the team,\" he said. \"Not just that, we have a commitment to ourselves, to Congress, and to the American people to say that when we do this, we've got to be able to prove we can maintain standards of readiness in the organization. That's what this is exactly meant to do.\"\nU.S. Army Reserve and National Guard Sapper teams from across the U.S. perform pushups at the start of a land navigation course during the 2015 Sapper Stakes competition at Fort Chaffee, Ark., Aug. 30. The teams had to perform 100 pushups as a group at the start of the course and after finding every two points, for a total of eight grid coordinates.The competition is designed to build teamwork, enhance combat engineering skills and promote leadership among the units. (U.S. Army photo by Master Sgt. Michel Sauret)\nPhoto Credit: Master Sgt. Michel Sauret/Army\nThe new Occupational Physical Assessment Test that's being rolled out this summer will enable recruits to demonstrate they have the potential to serve in a certain MOS, Dailey said. A test like the combat readiness test will then serve as \"a physical test to say you can maintain the qualifications within an MOS,\" he said.\n\"Let's take an artillery soldier, for example,\" Dailey said. \"An artillery round weighs 75 pounds, and it doesn't care whether you're a man or a woman. You've got to be able to lift that thing and put it inside of the gun \u2026 and you've got to be able to do it over and over and over again. I can't put somebody inside that Howitzer that can't do that and meet those standards, or we have now just degraded the standards of what's required of us to support our wartime missions.\"\nThe key purpose of the test is to be an \"unemotional\" and defined way for soldiers to demonstrate their abilities, Dailey said.\n\"It's about can you do the tasks required of the job. That's it,\" he said. \"There are going to be men who can't do it, and that's fine, as long as we make sure the standards are met to accomplish the mission.\"\nDavenport cautioned that the Army is still very early its development of the CRT. The name of the test, or even if the Army needs such a test, is still up for discussion, he said.\nIf the Army moves forward with a combat readiness test, it would come on the heels of the new OPAT, which beginning in June is expected to be administered to new recruits.\nThe gender-neutral OPAT consists of four events, and it is designed to help determine which military occupational specialties recruits can sign up for based on how well they perform. For example, recruits who want to go into a combat arms job such as infantry will need higher scores than recruits vying for a different MOS.\nWork on the OPAT \"busted the dam wide open\" when it comes to how the Army looks at functional fitness, said Col. Rick Heyward, chief of staff for the Center for Initial Military Training.\nThe research that went into building OPAT could inform future changes to the decades-old Army Physical Fitness Test. The APFT is \"a good measurement of endurance,\" Heyward said, \"but it doesn't measure holistic fitness.\"\nThat same research also could inform any future combat readiness test.\n\"Generally speaking, [a CRT] would look a lot like the OPAT but with different standards or maybe conditions,\" Davenport said. \"The OPAT is a great assessment tool, and it's very efficient. It doesn't require a lot of equipment.\"\nSgt. 1st Class Tim Shay, a Paratrooper assigned to 307th Engineer Battalion, 3rd Brigade Combat Team , 82nd Aiborne Division carries ammo cases during the Best Sapper Competition at Fort Leonard Wood, Mo., April 21, 2016. (U.S. Army photo by Sgt. Anthony Hewitt/Released)\nPhoto Credit: Sgt. Anthony Hewitt/Army\nThe Army also could look to the Marine Corps as it develops the combat readiness test. Since 2008, the Marines have had a combat fitness test that consists of three events designed to simulate what a Marine might encounter on the battlefield. It includes an 880-yard sprint and an ammunition lift.\nThe Marine test is conducted annually, and a Marine's scores can impact his or her career and promotion chances.\nMuch of the research underway now for the Army's combat readiness test is being conducted by the Center for Initial Military Training, which is the Army's proponent for fitness, Davenport said. Experts are looking at whether the Army needs such a test, what one should look like, and how often it should be administered.\nAny combat readiness test would likely be in addition to the Army Physical Fitness Test, which consists of sit-ups, push-ups and a two-mile run.\nThe Center for Initial Military Training \"is conducting prospective research to identify field-expedient test events that measure muscular strength, power and speed and could supplement the Army Physical Fitness Test,\" the center said in a statement. \"These measures would ensure Army physical readiness assessments better align with the high physical demands of our specific occupational skills, the Army's Warrior Tasks and Battle Drills, as well as Common Soldier Tasks.\"\nOfficials with CIMT declined to discuss specifics of the ongoing research because no decisions have been made.\nThey did say that the research will address three key questions:\n\u2022 Are we assessing the right fitness domains?\n\u2022 Are there better ways to assess soldier physical readiness?\n\u2022 How often should any such assessment take place?\nAt the end of the day, the goal for CIMT is to find \"new and better ways to improve levels of soldier physical readiness,\" officials said.\n\"Although I can pass an APFT, can I perform the high physical demand tasks that support my organization's mission?\" Davenport said.\nTRADOC is focused on thinking about the future of the Army and its readiness, Davenport said.\n\"How do we make our Army better? How do we make it more ready?\" Davenport said. \"At the end of the day, it's about getting the right person to the right job to serve our Army.\"",

That\u2019s why it\u2019s important to begin annual mammogram screenings at age 40. Regular mammograms are essential to early detection and the fight against breast cancer. In fact, with early detection, the five-year survival rate for breast cancer is 100 percent.\nAt Ashley Regional, your breast health is important to us. Our caring staff uses the latest technology \u2013 like 3D mammography \u2013 in a comfortable and welcoming environment to help you stay on top of your health and give you the peace of mind that comes with knowing and being prepared.\nWhat is 3D mammography? 3D mammography is a type of digital mammography which uses advanced technology to take images of your breast from different angles and combine them to create a more complete and accurate image of your breast than is possible with regular 2D digital mammography.\n3D mammography follows the same basic procedure that you\u2019re probably accustomed to with regular 2D digital mammography. 3D lasts just a few seconds longer, slightly extending the time of minor discomfort you may feel and the low-risk radiation exposure involved with all forms of digital mammography.\nWhy should I get a 3D mammogram? The more complete and accurate image of your breast generated by 3D mammography allows us to detect breast cancer earlier and more effectively than traditional 2D mammography, so that we can take action to help you fight.\n3D mammography is particularly effective if you have dense breast tissue or have been given a previous cancer or lesion diagnosis.\nAnd 3D mammography\u2019s higher accuracy means less unnecessary return visits to the doctor for false positives that turn out to be non-cancerous.\nWhat does all of that mean for you? Greater peace of mind.\nHow can I get a 3D mammogram? To schedule a 3D mammogram, give us a call at 435-781-6822.\nWhen you take control of your preventive health, we\u2019re in a better position to work with you to detect any issues that arise and to help you fight them every step of the way.\nBe your own \u2018breast friend,\u2019 and schedule your 3D mammogram today.",

A compulsory course for English lit. undergrads at the school called \"Critical and Literary Theory\" will include a unit on the study of \"pleasure, self-scrutiny, and auto-eroticism\". Within that unit is a lecture titled \"The Art of Masturbation\" led by an English tutor named Dr. Fabienne Collignon.\nDr. Collignon told student news site The Tab: \"The lecture will be on Walt Whitman, Rob Halpern and the deconstruction of masturbation. The last week is called pleasure, self-scrutiny and auto-eroticism. I ended up calling it that because there\u2019s an affinity between literary pleasure, critical self-scrutiny and auto-eroticism.\u201d\nRight, because there's nothing more erotic than literary criticism.\nRecommended reading for the unit includes Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick\u2019s Jane Austen and the Masturbating Girl and Walt Whitman: The Spermatic Imagination by Harold Aspiz.\nAlthough we're sure this course material will be handled with the utmost maturity, we couldn't help but imagine what a syllabus for a course like this might look like:\nPurpose and Objective: To improve students' ability to self-examine. Students will be asked to challenge themselves with the course material and work through it to completion. If the course load proves to be too overwhelming, students are advised to find a study partner to lend a hand.\nRecommended Reading: Playboy, Maxim, Hustler, Penthouse. If these titles are not available from the library, a Victoria's Secret catalogue is acceptable.\nAssignments: Students should prepare themselves for a group project, a pop quiz and plenty of self-directed homework.\nField Trip: The yearly excursion, in which students get an opportunity to practice the skills they've learned in the field, has unfortunately been cancelled due to complaints from the public.\nCourse Materials: Pens, pencils, notebooks, tissues, moisturizer.\nTrending News: The Jobs Where Having A Master's Degree Can Really Bump Your Pay\nTrending News: Here's How A Girl's Insane 101.6 GPA Got Her Into All 8 Ivies\nTrending News: The College Rankings Are Out -- Did Your Alma Mater Make The Cut?\nTrending News: Another Reason To Love Canada: They're Starting To Kill Student Loans\nTrending News: Does The U.S. Have The Dumbest Millennials In The World?",

With a very rich culture, Dagombas are known for their breathtaking dances and the strong sense of fashion.

        "raw_content": "It took Karl Marlantes over thirty years to see his debut novel Matterhorn published. The publishing world is filled with awards, but a new one should be christened to commemorate this triumph of patience and determination. Of course, Marlantes would be the first to admit he wasn\u2019t always patient. In fact, he very much wanted to publish Matterhorn in 1977, the first time he \u201cfinished\u201d the novel. In those days, it was 1,600 pages long, as opposed to the slim 600-page volume he eventually did publish. He also wanted it published in the 80\u2019s, when publishers said no one wanted to read about Viet Nam, and he wanted it published in the 90\u2019s and early 00\u2019s, when publishers wanted to move the story to Iraq or Afghanistan.\nBut he published Matterhorn in 2010, nearly 40 years after he began writing it. A lot of writers will probably think, \u201cHey, isn\u2019t it that great? Now please, God, never let that happen to me.\u201d Not to worry, it probably won\u2019t. The moral of Marlantes\u2019s story is not that you must be willing to wait thirty years to publish a novel. But Marlantes made the point in our interview that had the book been published in 1977 it probably would have come and gone very quickly and been forgotten.\nMatterhorn represents a kind of literary life\u2019s work for Karl Marlantes, and so is definitely a special case. But in another way, his story is everyone\u2019s story. Had he not believed in the value of the story he wanted to tell, he certainly would have given up long ago\u2014most likely in 1977. That his story remained the same story is what makes Matterhorn unique. For most of us, that which we wish to share with the world will be spread out over many stories, but the challenge remains the same.\nThe only thing that will sustain you through the dry years, if indeed you encounter any, is a fundamental belief in what you have to share\u2014not your talent, not your desire for approval and money. It doesn\u2019t matter whether what you want to share are stories of young women falling in love or a First Lieutenant\u2019s struggle to find courage in the jungles of Viet Nam, the current of interest that drew you to your stories must remain unassailable. Patience will bring the story to its desired form and audience, whether in three months or thirty years.\nWritingBill Kenower May 4, 2010 Karl Marlantes, Patience, Publishing, WritingComment\nRewriting, WritingBill Kenower May 5, 2010 David Wagoner, Rewriting, Writing\nWritingBill Kenower May 3, 2010 Shame, Writing",

        "raw_content": "Imagine if instead of staying in a residential facility, or being supported by a team of Support Workers, you could choose to become part of a real family. That is the essence of Shared Lives.\nThe Avalon Group works with Shared Lives Carers across the North of England, and these specially trained families open their homes for you to stay with them either short or long-term.\nShared Lives is built on flexibility, personalisation and most importantly family. You decide what best suits your needs, whether that be a few days respite, a short-break, a day service or a full-time living arrangement.\nIf you have a care need, be it a learning disability, dementia, physical disability or mental health need, Shared Lives provides a wonderful alternative to more traditional methods of care.\nAs part of a Shared Lives family you can expect to become a valued, active member of the local community, with the opportunity to pursue all of your passions and interests, whilst also learning new skills and experiencing new and exciting things as you take part in all the activities your Shared Lives family enjoys.\nOnce you have decided to become part of a Shared Lives family, whether it be a long-term living arrangement or just a day's respite, The Avalon Group works to match you to the right family.\nThis is called the Matching Process, and it is designed to make sure you and the family you stay with are compatible not just in terms of interests and hobbies, but also in lifestyle and home environment.\nSo for example, if you are a young person who enjoys going out regularly, you would be matched with a younger family who share these interests and would likely be doing similar things. Or if you had a specific need such as a downstairs bedroom/bathroom we will match you to a family with the relevant facilities.\nHow can I be sure this is right for me?\nBefore any arrangements are finalised, you will meet with your prospective Shared Lives family several times so that you can get to know one another. If for whatever reason you feel unsure, you can request a new match until you are satisfied that you are in the right place.\nEvery person accessing our Shared Lives service is supported by trained carers who undergo rigorous assessments and checks. In addition, every prospective carer must also be approved by our independent Shared Lives Panel before they can commence support.\nIf you feel Shared Lives is the choice for you, get in touch and speak to one of our experienced Care Team to discuss your individual needs. We are happy to meet at your home or talk at a location of your choosing.\nShared Lives carers are people who are committed to caring. They are the most passionate, dedicated individuals and are the reason Shared Lives is the incredible form of community care it has become.\nCarers come from all walks of life, meaning that although previous experience in care poses a benefit, it is by no means essential. Enthusiasm, motivation and a caring nature are the three true requirements of becoming a carer. And given that Avalon provides full training at no cost to you, you can rest assured that you will have all the necessary tools to provide a safe, quality environment for those you would be supporting.\nTo find out more visit our Shared Lives carer recruitment page.",

Whether they were kids in the back seat of the family sedan, or just hanging out with their best friends on a Friday night checking out the hot cars, Canadian baby boomers grew up with A&W. It's an enduring friendship that is the source of A&W's continued success across Canada.\nSince then, A&W has continued to grow, expanding into over 850 locations from Vancouver Island to Newfoundland. At the heart of that growth is the fact that, while so much of our world has changed, the simple things that made A&W so popular in its early days are the same today. We still serve A&W Root Beer\u00ae in frosted mugs. Our onion rings are made fresh from whole onions every day. And our Burger Family burgers are still made with fresh, quality ingredients.\nWhile our commitment to having the best-tasting food hasn't changed, our restaurants are dramatically different than they were in the drive-in days. As our customers' needs for convenience and faster service grew, our restaurants changed to meet those needs. The drive-ins of the '60s have been replaced by contemporary free-standing restaurants with drive-thru service. We've also expanded into new, more convenient spaces. In shopping centres, airports, and highway gas/convenience locations, A&W is more accessible than ever. So is our famous A&W Root Beer\u00ae. A&W remains Canada's No. 1 brand of root beer and is available not just in our restaurants, but also in cans and bottles at your local grocery store.\nAt A&W, we\u2019re on a journey to source simple, great-tasting ingredients, farmed with care. We\u2019re proud to have high standards when it comes to our food and you can taste it in everything we serve. It\u2019s all part of our commitment to serve you food you can feel good about.\nFor us, great burgers come first. So it\u2019s only natural that we\u2019re the first and only national burger restaurant in Canada to serve beef raised without the use of hormones or steroids. We\u2019re also the first and only national burger restaurant in Canada to serve chicken raised without the use of antibiotics. Our eggs are farmed right here in Canada, from hens fed a vegetarian diet without animal by-products. We\u2019re also proud to serve organic, Fairtrade coffee blended for us by Master Roaster Van Houtte.\nWith a rich history behind us, we look forward to an even more exciting future ahead. A&W is expanding all across Canada, and we're always looking for new team members. For restaurant or corporate employment opportunities, please visit our \u2018Work at A&W' page.

        "raw_content": "I have competition!\nNot that I particularly relish competition, seeing as I\u2019m a natural monopolist at heart, but it seems there\u2019s a site called IraqJournal.org that has a lot of reporting from Baghdad coordinated by Jeremy Scahill.\nI point to this site in a spirit of \u201cwe\u2019re all journalists, check it out!\u201d but I gotta be honest. I think Mr. Scahill and his team are pretty biased. First of all, they\u2019re based in Baghdad, which means they\u2019re there with the permission of Saddam\u2019s regime. It\u2019s unlikely they\u2019re going to report on things that make the Iraqis look bad. Secondly, his bio has a couple of telling quotes (emphasis added):\n\u201cHe primarily covers international stories, focusing on the ugly face of US foreign policy.\u201d\n\u201cHe spent more than a month in Iraq (May-June 2002) where he reported on the ongoing suffering there caused by the US-led sanctions and continuous bombing.\u201d\nNow, I don\u2019t want to take away from Mr. Scahill\u2019s accomplishments. As his bio says, he\u2019s the youngest person to ever win the George Polk Award for Foreign Reporting, (He\u2019s 28). And living in Iraq as a Westerner is hard.\nBut the coverage is overwhelmingly sympathetic to Saddam. Two stories on the prison amnesty fairly brim with admiration. The implication is, \u201cSee? He\u2019s not so bad!\u201d Reports that political prisoners and those accused of spying for Israel and the United States were not released or \u2014 worse \u2014 \u201cdisappeared,\u201d are breezily dismissed. He trashes John Burns\u2019 (NY Times) account of many prisoners thanking Bush for their liberty by saying:\nMany prisoners thanked Bush? Is he kidding? \u201cMany\u201d implies that thousands must have been rushing up to Burns (on the day of their \u201cliberation\u201d back into \u201cSaddam\u2019s Iraq\u201d) to make sure that The Times relayed their message back to the Oval Office (which is currently threatening to destroy Iraq). Even if Burns had managed to hunt down that handful of Iraqis who do have affection for the US president, none of them would have been stupid enough on that day, when they had just hit \u201cfreedom,\u201d to come out swinging at Saddam and praising Bush to an American reporter. And \u201cmany\u201d is a flat-out fairytale.\nNow, I have no idea if \u201cmany\u201d or \u201ca few\u201d or \u201cevery goddamned one of \u2019em!\u201d thanked Bush for their freedom, but it\u2019s clear from Scahill\u2019s wording that he doesn\u2019t either. There are no quotes from recently released prisoners backing up his claims and his reportage is peppered with \u201cwould have\u201ds and \u201ccould have\u201ds. In short, he\u2019s assuming.\nIn another story, running under the headline \u201cBush Corleone,\u201d Scahill makes the claim that \u201cThese days most UN officials here, while deriding the infamous Iraqi bureaucracy, speak of deep collaboration with the government in attempting to deal with the devastating impact of the US-led sanctions.\u201d\nThat?s simply not true. When I was in Iraqi Kurdistan, Mike Parker of the Mine Advisory Group, which helps locate and cleanse the massive minefields laid during the 1980-88 Iran-Iraq War, told me that 12 expatriates and UN workers had been killed in the four years he had been working in Suleimanya. They were killed by car bombs, snipers and other mayhem. He also traveled with an armed escort and after I met him for dinner, refused to let me return to my hotel without my own armed escort. Mike isn?t with the United Nations, but foreigners there are only safe when they cooperate with Saddam, and that includes talking to the press \u2014 especially in Baghdad.\nOK. So perhaps I\u2019m being hard on Scahill and his team. After all, they\u2019re on the ground doing work and I\u2019m still in New York. But is it really so hard to say, as one of my friends did recently, \u201cSaddam is a bad guy and a monstrous tyrant, but now is not the time to go after him.\u201d Why are some people on the left unable to take this at least intellectually honest approach? Because it would mean the United States has a point?\nSo here?s my bottom line: I desperately want to be in Scahill\u2019s position and I have a lot of respect for him that he\u2019s managed to get himself there and do reporting. His site looks nice, too, and I guess I\u2019ll link to it. But \u2014 and this is a big but \u2014 reporting propaganda, regardless of where it comes from doesn\u2019t serve the most important people journalists should be thinking about: their readers. Also: I oppose the seemingly inevitable war in Iraq not because I think Saddam is a swell chap or because I think everything the United States does is in quest of yummy oil. He?s not and not everything the U.S. does is evil. I oppose it because it\u2019s geostrategically dangerous, because it violates many aspects of established international practices and laws and it shows a shockingly shortsighted vision of foreign policy. From various reports, it seems the United States will hang the Kurds out to dry, and that?s not fair. War with Iraq will also distract us from the important task of containing Al Qaeda and alienate our allies making everything the United States does harder. So, yes, I?m opposed to the war, but not at the expense of truth, the famous first casualty.\nBut if I was assured that the United States had the backing and blessing of the United Nations, that there was proof of Iraq?s evil machinations to inflict serious and immediate harm and the Kurds were protected by a solid commitment to democracy, then hell, I don?t think I could oppose taking out Saddam.\nAt least I?m honest.\nThanks for the donations!",

        "raw_content": "Astronaut stays on as NASA delays shuttle to Mir\nCAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. -- It's a good thing that NASA astronaut Norman Thagard packed an extra change of clothes when he went into space with the Russian cosmonauts in March.\nHe won't be home as soon as expected.\nDr. Thagard, 51, a physician and veteran of five previous flights, made history March 14 when he became the first U.S. astronaut to be launched aboard a Russian rocket and the first to join cosmonauts aboard the space station Mir.\nHe was supposed to be picked up by the NASA shuttle Atlantis in early June in the first docking between a U.S. shuttle and Mir.\nThat docking was postponed yesterday for the second time, said NASA spokeswoman Lisa Malone. It could come as late as the last week in June.\nThe Russians are having trouble getting a much-needed set of solar panels and other hardware for the Mir into space, said NASA spokesman Rob Navius of Mission Control in Houston.\nThe panels, which convert the sun's rays into electrical power for the space station, must be attached to Mir some 20 to 30 days before Atlantis arrives. Cosmonauts also must install other devices to be brought up on the same Russian supply mission.\nThe work includes spacewalks to attach the docking device that Atlantis will use to connect with Mir.\nNASA has set June 19 as the new tentative launch date for Atlantis, Ms. Malone said. The launch could be as late as June 24.\nThe delay is causing NASA managers to juggle the rest of the shuttle launch schedule for the summer.\nNASA leaders will decide this month whether to go ahead with a scheduled launch of the shuttle Discovery on June 8. The Discovery crew will deploy a tracking and data relay satellite that sends communications and television signals between shuttles and the Earth.\nMs. Malone said the Discovery mission could be shortened to accommodate the Mir docking.\n\"We can't have two shuttles in space at the same time because our Mission Control facility in Houston is equipped to manage only one shuttle at a time,\" she said.\nSo Dr. Thagard, married and the father of three, will continue doing medical experiments on himself and crew mates and continue getting used to the long period in space. Mir has plenty of food and water because it is manned by Russians all year long.\nDr. Thagard is the 44th visitor to the Mir space station, the 13th foreigner.\nOver the next three years, five U.S. astronauts will serve aboard the Mir as preparation for building the international space station, on which construction is scheduled to start near the end of the decade. The United States, Russia, Japan, Canada and the European Space Agency are partners in the project.",

        "raw_content": "Federal regulators are barely two years away from transitioning to a radical new accounting standard that poses a significant issue for the banking industry, and, whatever its intent, is viewed by many as another rule that will make consultants rich, confuse investors and risk managers, and ultimately require significant implementation investments from banks.\nThe final rule \u2013 which was unveiled last year following a long and contentious battle between representatives of the banking industry and numerous governmental agencies \u2013 will replace the legacy Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses (ALLL), or \u201cincurred loss\u201d model of bank accounting with the far more complex Current Expected Credit Loss (CECL) standard established by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB).\nThe goal of both approaches is to give those reading a lender\u2019s financial statements a fair picture of the economics of making loans by including expectations for losses. Both models rely on a lender\u2019s historical loss data, and provide an estimate of future losses based on certain assumptions and a given timeframe. Under FASB\u2019s new rules \u2013 which are scheduled to begin taking effect in 2020 \u2013 banks will be required to record expenses and book reserves upfront for expected losses for the life of each loan based on loan-risk characteristics, and a \u201creasonably supportable\u201d macroeconomic projection of the future.\nOne of the more controversial aspects of CECL is the introduction of this new \u201clife-of-loan\u201d concept that will require lenders to calculate the probability of default for the duration of a loan\u2019s term. Compare that to the existing \u201closs emergence period\u201d (LEP) standard, which can vary considerably depending on the product type and workout periods, but for most commercial loans involves forecasting losses over a 12-18 month period.\nBank regulators have described CECL as the \u201cbiggest change to bank accounting ever.\u201d\nNaturally, the process has generated a strong backlash from the community banking sector, which has expressed significant concerns about small banks\u2019 ability to comply with CECL.\n\u201cTo perform the CECL calculations a community banker needs data, lots of data,\u201d wrote Peter Cherpack, Executive Vice President at Ardmore Banking Advisors, Inc., in a white paper explaining the impact of CECL on smaller institutions. \u201cThey will need data on their loans, data on their borrowers, and data on the performance of the regional and national economy.\u201d\nJack Hartings, former Chairman of the Independent Community Bankers of America (ICBA), equated the task with developing the banking equivalent of a \u201ccrystal ball,\u201d and warned this added burden could cost \u201cthousands of jobs and financing options that keep small communities thriving.\u201d\nWhile the impact of CECL on reserve levels will vary from bank to bank based on the loan mix within each individual bank\u2019s portfolio and differing capital provisioning policies, some experts warn it could result in a significant rise in capital reserve requirements for some banks. It is certain, though, that the new approach will impose higher costs and compliance burdens on every bank, adding to the load that challenges the success of community banking.\nIn response to these concerns, in April 2016 FASB held the first meeting of its Transition Resource Group (TRG) \u2013 a roundtable of experts that included representatives of community banks and credit unions. Two months later the group issued a revised guidance that eased some of the requirements for community and regional banks.\nFor instance, many of the loss-estimation techniques applied today will still be permitted, although the inputs to those techniques will change to reflect the full amount of expected credit losses. The revised CECL proposal also includes added flexibility for community banks, which will allow them to apply a \u201cpersonal understanding\u201d of their local markets rather than complex modeling systems to determine their loan-loss reserves.\nRepresentatives of the banking community have expressed muted optimism about the modifications.\n\u201cWhile we continue to have strong concerns with the costs related to CECL\u2019s life-of-loan loss concept, we are committed to working with both regulators and auditors to ensure banks of all sizes can meet the implementation challenges of the new standard,\u201d said Rob Nichols, President and CEO of the American Bankers Association.\nBut even with the looser requirements, data suggests few banks are prepared to make the leap to CECL \u2013 which is fast approaching.\nIn October, a survey from financial technology provider SS&C Technologies Holdings revealed a marked decline in banks\u2019 confidence in their ability to address the standard via existing reserving processes. The survey identified several stress points for community banks \u2013 with top concerns around the accuracy and integrity of data; the ability to identify the appropriate data elements; and their ability to manage the large quantities of data required to meet the new forecasting standards.\nAnother study found that fewer than half of banks have even selected the methodologies they will use to implement CECL.\nCECL will have a wide-ranging impact on financial institutions\u2019 allowance processes; experts recommend getting a head start on developing that holistic approach and recommend that you:\nThink: about models and which one will best fit your bank;\nConsider: what data you\u2019ll need to fulfill that model and begin compiling sources; and,\nCollaborate: CECL implementation is not a one person job. Create a transition team that includes accounting, operations, lending, and IT personnel.",

        "raw_content": "Home Medical ServicesNeurology & NeurosurgerySeizuresSeizure Treatment\nSeizures may be the result of a disorder, disease or event that damages the brain or stimulates unusual electrical activity.\nEpileptic seizures are associated with a change in the brain\u2019s electrical activity, while nonepileptic seizures are caused by different conditions. Nonepileptic seizures are typically the result of an unresolved psychologic stress.\nMedication is the most common treatment for recurrent seizures or epilepsy, with the goal being to prevent or reduce the frequency of seizures with no side effects. If medications aren\u2019t successful, surgery is a possible treatment option. Nonepileptic seizures can be treated by identifying and addressing the underlying cause.\nAt Barnes-Jewish Hospital, we see hundreds of patients with seizures each year, including a third of the region\u2019s epilepsy patients. Our epileptologists, neurosurgeons and other epilepsy specialists work together to provide advanced seizure treatment. At our Comprehensive Epilepsy Center, we aim to rule out an epilepsy diagnosis and provide the appropriate treatment.\nMedication for Seizures\nMedication is almost always the first treatment for epileptic seizures, as it controls seizures in 60-70 percent of people with epilepsy. While medication can\u2019t cure epilepsy, it can greatly reduce or even stop the seizures from occurring.\nAs a partner of Washington University School of Medicine, our neurologists pioneer the use of seizure medication, providing us great experience in selecting the right medication and dosage.\nWe may recommend that you stay at our epilepsy monitoring unit (EMU), so we can monitor your seizures over the course of a few days and have a better understanding of your seizures and the treatment necessary.\nAdditional Treatment Options for Epileptic Seizures\nThere are other treatment options for epileptic seizures, including:\nElectrical stimulation to disrupt abnormal electrical brain activity\nCounseling or neuropsychological therapy, to help you cope with the difficulties of epilepsy\nDiet changes to prevent seizures associated with certain types of epilepsy, especially in children\nSurgery to remove the part of the brain where the electrical activity originates\nBarnes-Jewish was one of the first hospitals in the country to regularly use surgery to treat patients with seizure disorders that were unresponsive to medications.\nConsidering Your Seizure Treatment Options\nYour neurologist will talk with you about the potential benefits and side effects of each treatment option. Our team carefully weighs each option before making a recommendation, with controlling your seizures and your safety being our priorities.\nTo make an appointment with a Washington University neurologist at Barnes-Jewish Hospital, call 855.925.0631.",

        "title": "Non-Compete Agreements in Virginia for Independent Contractors - Legal Articles - Resources - Berry & Berry, PLLC",
        "raw_content": "By Kimberly H. Berry, Esq., http://www.berrylegal.com\nOne interesting question that has recently arisen in Virginia is whether Virginia employers can use non-compete agreements with independent contractors. The answer is not entirely clear. There are many potential pitfalls for both the independent contractors that sign such agreements and the employers that attempt to enforce them. An employer may discover that its fully executed non-compete agreement with an independent contractor is unenforceable, and at the same time subject itself to significant liability for misclassifying an employee.\nThe Problems with Non-Compete Agreements for Independent Contractors\nOne of the main problem areas with requiring independent contractors to sign non-compete agreements is that independent contractors are different types of workers. An independent contractor is essentially its own business. Generally, an employer cannot compel an independent contractor, which is a separate business, to forfeit his or her business simply because it provided the independent contractor business. In many situations, independent contractors may appear similar to employees (and many employers cross the line in terms of who they think they can classify as an independent contractor), but there are different loyalties and duties. For the most part, the more that an individual becomes a part of an employer\u2019s business or organization, through signing non-compete agreements and assuming duties of loyalty and the like, the more likely that the individual can be considered an employee.\nSuppose that an independent contractor is paid and taxed as an independent contractor, and then the employer has the independent contractor sign a non-compete agreement. The very existence of such an agreement likely has initiated a shift of the contractor\u2019s status from that of an independent contractor towards that of a misclassified employee who owes a duty of loyalty to the employer. If the independent contractor has been misclassified by the employer, then the employer may risk having an unenforceable non-compete agreement, and also potentially subjects itself to serious tax, overtime, and government fine issues as a result of not paying the worker properly.\nTo date, there are a few interesting Virginia cases on the topic, including Reading & Language Learning Ctr. v. Sturgill, 94 Va. Cir. 94, Case No. CL-2015-10699 (Fairfax County Aug. 4, 2016) case. The Reading case involved an individual (Sturgill) who was training to be a speech therapist, but needed a clinical fellowship to obtain certification. Sturgill signed an agreement with Reading to work as an independent contractor for one year to obtain her license. In the written agreement, Sturgill agreed \u201cnot to employ any contracted employee or contract with any current client of the other for a period of two years.\u201d The language of the agreement was found to be confusing by the court.",

It's a theme that will stretch into next year -- until he releases a new album with his latest band, the Venus 3.\n\"Well, every dozen years or so it's time to re-release the back catalog,\" Hitchcock tells Billboard.com. \"Of course, in that time, the back catalog has swollen somewhat. When you dig it up it seems to pull up even more material out of the ground. All this stuff accumulates. It's the opposite of a rolling stone which, of course, gathers no moss. This stuff gathers everything.\"\nThe first fruits of Hitchcock's latest gathering will be heard Nov. 13 on the five CDs (or eight LPs) of Yep Roc's \"I Wanna Go Backwards,\" which accumulates three albums -- \"Black Snake Diamond Role,\" his solo debut from 1981, 1984's \"I Often Dream of Trains\" and 1990's \"Eye,\" all with bonus tracks, plus the two-disc B-sides and rarities collection \"While Thatcher Mauled Britain Part 1 & 2.\" Yep Roc is also releasing 1982's out-of-print \"Groovy Decay\" as a digital download.\nHitchcock says Yep Roc is next targeting his recordings with the Egyptians during the '80s for a similar boxed set treatment, tentatively due May 1, 2008. Before that, however, Hitchcock hopes to release \"Shadow Cat,\" a set of unreleased recordings from the '90s, while Britain's Sartorial label is planning to reissue the remastered catalog of his first band, the Soft Boys.\n\"It's not as stimulating as making a new record, but it's far better than them being out of print,\" Hitchcock says of the archival projects. \"I think I'm just a bit slower about that task than I am about making a new collection of songs.\"\nHe's been doing that, too, with the Venus 3, his band with R.E.M. guitarist Peter Buck and his touring sidekicks Scott McCaughey (Young Fresh Fellows, Minus 5) and Bill Rieflin that debuted with last year's \"Ole! Tarantula.\" Hitchcock says the group has already held sessions in England and Arizona and plans another one in Seattle in late November, with a release in the late summer or fall of 2008.\n\"I think we've already recording hundreds of songs for it,\" he says. \"It's great for me; I've got this band of guys that, because of all their other (groups), play all the time. So they're always just on and ready to go.\"\nHitchcock begins an 11-date U.S. tour, accompanied by Harvey Danger frontman Sean Nelson, on Nov. 2 in Milwaukee.",

        "raw_content": "An Artist's Life: Keith Haring\nIn honor of artist Keith Haring's 59th birthday today, we look at some facts about his life and art that testifies to his humanity, creativity, and activism.\nKeith Haring (Photo: Joe McNally/Getty Images)\nBorn on May 4, 1958 in Reading, Pennsylvania, Keith Haring went on to pursue his dreams in New York City, becoming an influential figure in its art scene with his 80s street culture and socially conscious drawings and paintings.\nHobnobbing with celebrity artists like Andy Warhol, Jean-Michel Basquiat, and Madonna, Haring was able to use his own growing celebrity status and break through internationally, traveling as far as Australia and Rio de Janeiro and painting large-scale murals in those countries&apos; public spaces.\nHowever, Haring&apos;s art career was short-lived. The artist fell victim to the growing AIDS epidemic and died on February 16, 1990 at the age of 31. But before he died he used his art to give voice to those who were dying from the disease.\nIn celebration of what would&apos;ve been Keith Haring&apos;s 59th birthday, here are some interesting facts about the young artist who lived a remarkable, albeit brief life.\nIn honor of Haring\u2019s 50th birthday, a team of artists recreated his famous 1982 outdoor mural and presented it in NYC\u2019s Bowery area on May 2, 2008.\n- Before Haring was a progressive street-minded graffiti pop artist living in New York, he went through a religious phase at age 12, joining what was called the Jesus Movement, and tried to convince people they needed to become born again Christians.\n- Growing up Haring was influenced by the cartoonish illustrations of Dr. Seuss, Looney Tunes and Charles Schulz.\n- Although New Yorkers generally enjoyed Haring&apos;s street art, he was arrested by the NYPD on multiple occasions for vandalizing the subways.\n- As a socially active artist who drew and painted images about war, sexuality, and life and death, Haring was ecstatic when he was invited to paint part of the Berlin Wall in 1986.\n- Haring never told his parents that he was gay, referring to his boyfriends as bodyguards. His parents would later figure out the truth on their own.\n- Inspired by his friend who battled drug addiction, Haring created one of his most famous works: the Crack Is Wack mural on New York&apos;s FDR Drive. After being diagnosed with AIDS in the late 1980s, Haring used his artwork to shed light on the disease, creating famous pieces like Silence = Death.\n- Because he didn&apos;t want to feel like \"a sell out\" (only catering to rich clients) and believed his art should be accessible to everyone, Haring opened up a retail store called the Pop Shop, which sold his merchandise in the form of shirts, buttons, and posters.\n- Influenced by his Christian past, Haring created one of his most famous drawings: the \"Radiant Baby\" (aka Radiant Christ). Haring described this drawing as the \"purest and most positive experience of human existence.\" It was one of the last things he drew when he died.\nStephen Foster: 9 Facts on America's First Pop Artist\nJanuary 13th marks Stephen Foster Memorial Day in honor of the man who wrote some of America's most beloved songs of the 19th century.\nKeith Haring: Public Displays of Affection From a Pop Artist\nToday marks the 54th birthday of Keith Haring (1958-1990), whose art was reflective of the zeitgeist of urban America in the 80s, with its boundless energy, distinctive dance music, and graffitied expressions sprayed along the public landscapes.Producing...\nCreative Genius on Film: 8 Must-See Artist Biopics\nFamous artists are ideal subjects for biopics, since they often lead lives full of crisis and drama, inspiration and beauty. Here's a look at eight films that give us a closer look at the complicated creative genius of well-known artists.\nBob Dylan\u2019s Life in Song\nOn Bob Dylan's 76th birthday, here's a look at his life through his legendary music.",

Hopefully they will do well, although they might be on the plane home by the time you read this!\nSport is a key priority for me, particularly as it made such an impact on my own development as a youth. I want to improve Bristol\u2019s sporting offer and make it accessible to all. We\u2019re aiming to do this in three ways: improving elite talent pathways for Bristolians, bringing world-class sporting events to the city and increasing participation.\nThat\u2019s why I was so pleased to support the launch of Bristol\u2019s Sporting Hall of Fame at an inaugural event at Ashton Gate stadium. Over 70 nominations were uploaded to an online platform consisting of community heroes, young hopefuls, stars who compete at an international level and those who achieve against the odds.\nAmong those mentioned are some of Bristol\u2019s biggest sporting names like former world champion boxer Lee Haskins, three-time ironman world champion Chrissie Wellington and Olympic gymnast Claudia Fragapane. These nominees represent some of the best of what our city has to offer and their achievements and stories will help motivate others to get out and try something new, hopefully inspiring a whole new generation to get involved in sport.\nIt\u2019s great that Bristol\u2019s Sporting Hall of Fame will celebrate the city\u2019s many sporting inspirations, share stories and encourage others to follow in their footsteps and I congratulate everyone who has been recognised as part of it.\nThere are two other awards I want to mention this month. They are the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) South West Sustainability Award and a RIBA South West 2018 accolades given to a new project called Challender Court in Henbury. This Bristol City Council housing development won the two architectural awards in recognition of the sustainability of the eight one-bed properties.\nI have a commitment of building 2,000 new homes \u2013 800 affordable \u2013 a year by 2020. As part of this, we are not just looking at numbers, but also the quality of housing and communities we create. These award-winning homes are designed to meet the Passivhaus building standards which aim to reduce energy usage. This will result in extremely energy efficient properties which will see household utility bills dramatically reduced.\nWe have completed 81 new homes since the start of the New Build Housing Programme, regenerating brownfield sites to provide new high quality homes across Bristol. As part of the new build programme, four sites are under construction providing a further 64 new homes. We have also gained consent for a mixed tenure development of 133 new homes at Ashton Vale, 53 of which will be council homes.\nWe have really started to see progress on meeting this challenge and I would like to thank our housing team, along with the contractors and architects, for helping to provide much- needed housing for the city.",

        "raw_content": "The study of logic concerns the study of sentences (propositions in the lingo of logic) and whether they are true or false. Using traditional logic we can use the information we have about a situation to infer knowledge about a statement built on our previous knowledge.\nFor example, consider the following reasoning:\nI know that if I see a black swan I am happy.\nTomorrow I will see a black swan.\nTherefore \u2013 tomorrow I will be happy.\nThis is an example of logical inference called modus ponens. I have used the logical implication connecting the state of \u2018seeing a black swan\u2019 and the state of \u2018being happy\u2019 to deduce that tomorrow I will be happy.\nLogic allows us to evaluate the arguments of others, make arguments of our own, and arrive at a conclusion backed by rigorous reasoning. Furthermore, logic forms the backbone of computer science. (Alan Turing invented the Turing Machine while conducting research in logic.)\nTraditional logic is couched in the notion of there being two truth values. In the example of the black swan inference, the variables may only hold truth values of \u2018true\u2019 or \u2018false\u2019. (I can be happy or not happy, tomorrow I will see a black swan or I will not see a black swan.) This basic assumption, that we use truth as a binary property, is not always the best way to model human behaviour.\nWhen considering how we would like to assert ourselves in conversation, we are often presented with uncertainty. If we require knowledge about the state of the world to make a decision, how do we use this to decide on what to say? If I wanted to tell you if I will be happy tomorrow, but my knowledge about the appearance of a black swan tomorrow is incomplete, then I cannot provide an inference on my happiness tomorrow.\nHow we deal with partial or uncertain information requires a new mathematical framework, which goes further than the traditional realms of propositional logic. This theory can allow many AI systems (such as natural language generation systems) to provide assertions more complex, and more appropriate to the task at hand.\nRead the abstract and download Henrietta\u2019s paper here.",

That\u2019s how my mum found out, but she loves it now so it\u2019s all good.\nBP: You were in Team GB at the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow in 2014, how did you get into that and what was your experience like?\nSF: Well 2013 was a breakout year for me when I won a National Elite ABA, which was a big deal in itself, as I was the second person ever from Preston to win one.\nAfter that I got trials for the GB team and had about five or six trials and then they took me on in the Development Team.\nThe next year I lost the ABA after winning it in 2013 so I thought I\u2019d lost my chance to go to the Commonwealth but then I got sent to Lithuania for the Algirdas Sockikas tournament, got to the final, and lost to a Lithuanian boxer but I won a silver medal.\nEveryone said I\u2019d done really well and thought I\u2019d won it but they were always going to favour the home team.\nI was then informed that I\u2019d been selected to go to the Commonwealth and it was all over the news.\nI trained really hard for it and got through five fights and won a gold medal, and you know, it was an amazing feeling because I was stood on a podium, and the England flag was going up in the air\u2026and it\u2019s something I\u2019ll always remember, it was an amazing experience.\nScott Fitzgerald Pic: Craig Salmon/Lancashire Post\nBP: In 2015 you were signed to Matchroom under Eddie Hearn, what was the transition like going from amateur to professional?\nSF: I signed for them in 2015 but I broke my thumb, so I didn\u2019t actually make my debut till 2016, but when I first turned pro I was training at Larches and Savick Gym, and then with Karl Ince in Preston, and now I\u2019m with Dave and Mick Jennings at their gym in Chorley.\nI only really started getting success in the amateurs when they changed the scoring system, which was more like a professional system, so my style was always up there, and when it came to going pro I already had a pretty professional style, and I\u2019ve been working on a few other things since then so I found the transition quite easy really.\nBP: Your next fight is on Saturday on the Amir Khan bill at the Echo Arena in Liverpool, tell us about that.\nSF: Yeah, so, on 21st April I\u2019m fighting a ten-rounder for a title, hopefully an English title so I\u2019m looking forward to that, it\u2019ll be a big show.\nI\u2019m sure I\u2019ll win it so I\u2019ll be looking for a British title by the end of the year as well.\nIt\u2019ll be my first ten-rounder so it\u2019ll give me deeper round experience.\nAnd when I win it, I\u2019ll obviously own that title and other fighters will want it, so I\u2019ll defend that a few times which will give me more experience and take me up the rankings where I\u2019ll be in a position to challenge for the British title before the end of the year.\nBP: How do you prepare for a fight like this, as far as training goes?\nSF: Monday to Friday I\u2019ll train twice a day, and Saturday I\u2019ll do a long hill run and rest on Sunday.\nTwice a week I\u2019m at the running track sprinting and I\u2019ll try and do long runs in between, and then I\u2019m in the gym sparring with some other lads; I\u2019m on the pads and the bags, doing circuits.\nThere\u2019s a lot that goes into it and I\u2019ve been working very hard to make sure I win this title.\nBP: Your fight last December was cancelled because you injured your knee. How do you deal with injuries and what do you do to try and avoid them?\nSF: Yeah, I injured my knee, and you know, these things happen, and I really want to try and stay injury free now and have a busy year this year.\nI\u2019ve not dealt with injuries too well in the past and I need to learn if I ever do get injured again to be the best I can.\nThese last few times I\u2019ve been injured, I\u2019ve not been in the gym or anything after the injury, so I need to stay in the gym and try to do whatever the injury will allow me to do.\nI can\u2019t comment any more than that really because I\u2019ve been terrible dealing with injuries.\nScott Fitzgerald outside the Preston Guild Hall with dad Dave Pic: Craig Salmon/Lancashire Post\nBP: Who\u2019s been your biggest inspiration throughout your career?\nSF: Oh, my dad, Dave Fitzgerald, definitely.\nThere were times I felt like stopping and he said to just stick with it and everything will come right in time.\nAnd there were times when I\u2019d had enough of the amateurs and I wanted to go professional before I\u2019d won an ABA or won at the Commonwealth and he said, \u2018no, you can\u2019t go now, you won\u2019t get a deal and it\u2019s pointless doing it so let\u2019s try and win an ABA\u2019.\nThe Commonwealth was a bonus and then I managed to get signed with Eddie Hearn, so he was right to tell me that; his advice is huge for me, and I listen to him.\nBP: You\u2019re turning 27 at the end of this year, how long do you think you can continue at the level you\u2019re at for and is there anything you want to achieve before you reach 30?\nSF: I\u2019d like to win the British title by the end of this year realistically; if it\u2019s a little bit longer, definitely before I turn 28.\nThen I\u2019d like a few years dominating in Britain and then by the time I\u2019m 30 I want to be looking for world titles.\nIf that\u2019s the case I\u2019ll give myself another five years on top of that, challenging for world honours and making good money; and if that\u2019s not the case by the time I\u2019m 30 then maybe I\u2019ll consider stopping.\nBut if I am making moves on the world scene then I\u2019d like to carry on till I\u2019m 35 or 36.\nWinning this fight on Saturday will give me an English title.\nIt\u2019s not as good as the British title but what it\u2019ll do is help me in the rankings, so it\u2019s all stepping stones really.\nBP: What\u2019s your fan-base been like in and around Preston; how have the community supported you?\nSF: Well, everyone knows me and knows about my boxing.\nI was on mainstream TV in the Commonwealth and Preston went mental when I was there.\nObviously, I don\u2019t know all of it but I hear a lot of stories and it\u2019s all great.\nAs a pro I\u2019ve got a lot of attention but with the injuries, you know, and not building as much momentum as I would\u2019ve liked, people can maybe lose interest, that\u2019s why I want a really busy year this year to build it right back up.\nI\u2019m sure that when I\u2019m challenging for these titles that they\u2019ll all be there, and they\u2019ll come and watch me again.\nThe future looks promising for Scott Fitzgerald, and with a win on Saturday, the confident boxer is sure to go on to achieve bigger and better things.\nScott is fighting on the undercard on the Amir Khan bill on Saturday (21 April) night.\nThe fight will be shown live on Sky Sports Action or Main Event from 7pm.",

It also would be 15th in the National League were he not one plate appearance shy of qualifying.\nDeJong, meanwhile, returns to St. Louis less than a week after being sent back to Memphis. In the 12 games he played at either second base or shortstop during Wong\u2019s first stint on the DL, DeJong was 10 for 41 (.244) wit home run and four RBIs.\nMatheny said DeJong impressed the coaching staff.\n\"I think his range impressed us when we got to see him on a little bit more of a consistent basis; He did a great job around the bag,\" Matheny said. \"He took just good at bats.\"\nHe currently is tied for ninth in the Pacific Coast League with 13 home runs, and his .571 slugging percentage ranks 10th.\n\u201cI expect to just have some fun up here while I\u2019m here and who knows how long it\u2019ll be,\" DeJong said. \"I\u2019m just gonna enjoy every moment.\u201d\nCecil Change\nBeginning Friday with the Cardinals series in Baltimore, relief pitcher Brett Cecil will assume No. 27, which he wore for seven seasons with the Toronto Blue Jays.\nThe number was unavailable to him when he arrived in St. Louis as a free agent in the off-season, because it was being used by third baseman Jhonny Peralta. Peralta was designated for assignment and ultimately given his release by the club Tuesday. Cecil had been wearing No. 21.",

Vipul Shah, the director of AANKHEN, is all geared up to embark on his new film project, WAQT THE RACE AGAINST TIME, on Monday, November 24 at Mumbai\u2019s Juhu Beach [behind Horizon Hotel]. Starring Amitabh Bachchan, Akshay Kumar, Priyanka Chopra, Paresh Rawal and Rajpal Yadav, the film will be produced by Blockbuster Movie Entertainers and presented by Manmohan Shetty, Kishore Lulla and Sunil Lulla.\nIt\u2019s a story of a father and a son, Vipul Shah tell me, It\u2019s a completely emotional film and I am sure, it will be identified by every father and son not just in our country, but throughout the world. Amitabh and Akshay will enact the characters, respectively.\nVipul has grand plans up his sleeve for the mahurat of the film. A podium would be erected right in the middle of the beach and what will follow has never been witnessed at mahurat ceremonies before.\nThe mahurat will begin with an audio visual presentation hosted by none other than Priyanka Chopra herself. Thereafter, Amitabh, Akshay and Priyanka will present a live performance on stage [Vipul doesn\u2019t want to make the details public before the mahurat]. I\u2019ve chosen this location in particular only because I want the common man to witness and be a part of the mahurat of a Hindi film, Vipul enlightens further.\nThe mahurat ceremony will be held between 6:30 and 7:30 p.m. IST, followed by a get-together for an august gathering at a suburban hotel. It only means that Vipul wants as many spectators to view the mahurat so that the message he intends conveying through his film could reach out at one go.\nWhile an actress [to enact the role of Bachchan\u2019s wife in the film] is under finalisation, the film will have music by Anu Malik and cinematography by Santosh Thundiyil [KUCH KUCH HOTA HAI, PINJAR].\nIt wasn\u2019t tough getting Amit-ji and Akshay for this project. During the making of AANKHEN itself, we had decided to work with each other. I narrated the script of WAQT in August and we are all set to roll in November, which indicates that they are eager to start work on the film, Vipul adds.\nThe shooting will begin in January/February 2004 and will be completed by August 2004.",

        "raw_content": "Skip the website? Some small businesses still do\nCyndi Grasman said sales at Bad Pickle Tees have doubled since she began selling the shirts online a year ago.\nBy Joseph Pisani Associated Press June 06, 2014\nNEW YORK \u2014 It\u2019s cheap. It\u2019s easy to do. And it can take less than 20 minutes to set up. Yet more than half of all small businesses still don\u2019t have a website.\n\u2018\u2018It\u2019s just ridiculous,\u2019\u2019 said Jim Blasingame, a small business author and radio show host. \u2018\u2018Every small business needs a website. Period. Nonnegotiable.\u2019\u2019\nSmall businesses that don\u2019t have one say they don\u2019t have the time, think it will cost too much, or don\u2019t want the rush of orders that comes with being online. But entrepreneurs who have jumped to the digital side say their websites have boosted sales, cut down on time-consuming phone calls, and brought more people into their stores.\nBut not everyone wants that.\nSteve Love has never had a website for the handmade sausage and meat business he\u2019s owned since 1988. He said a website for LoveLand Farms would boost sales, and he doesn\u2019t have any more farmland to raise hogs and Black Angus cattle.\n\u2018\u2018I don\u2019t want it to grow,\u2019\u2019 said Love, who sells his goods at a farmers\u2019 market in Bloomington, Ind., and a store in another town that\u2019s open once a week. \u2018\u2018I\u2019m already maxed out. I\u2019m scared it would blow up on me.\u2019\u2019\nBut customers expect one. When they ask him at the farmers\u2019 market if he has a website, he hands them a card with his phone number and a map to his shop called the Sausage Shack in Nashville, Ind. He has no plans to start a website anytime soon. But it could happen in the future if his kids want to take over and grow the business.\n\u2018\u2018I wouldn\u2019t say never,\u2019\u2019 Love said.\nSome owners simply say they have no time.\nBill Peatman, who writes blog posts, e-mails, and other content for websites for his corporate clients, doesn\u2019t have one for his own business.\n\u2018\u2018I\u2019ve just been too busy,\u2019\u2019 said Peatman, who started his Napa, Calif., business more than a year ago. \u2018\u2018I haven\u2019t come up with a plan with what I want to do.\u2019\u2019\nHe knows he needs one. \u2018\u2018People don\u2019t think you exist,\u2019\u2019 he said. \u2018\u2018I want to grow. I want to build my own reputation and brand.\u2019\u2019\nHe recently bought a domain name. And he plans to hire someone to build the site, but he thinks it will take him a few more months to get to it.\n\u2018\u2018At the way I move,\u2019\u2019 Peatman said, \u2018\u2018about six months.\u2019\u2019\nFifty-five percent of small businesses don\u2019t have a website, according to a 2013 survey of more than 3,800 small businesses conducted by Google and research company Ipsos. That\u2019s a slight improvement from the year before, when 58 percent said they didn\u2019t have a website.\nSmall business owners who want to start a website have lots of options that make it easier than in the past. Companies such as Wix.com, Google, SquareSpace.com, and Weebly.com don\u2019t require coding or technical skills. Users can choose a template, drag in photos, and paste in words.\nAnd with more people searching for businesses online and on their smartphones, companies without a site might be missing out on extra business.\n\u2018\u2018You might as well be a ghost,\u2019\u2019 said Blasingame, who hosts \u2018\u2018The Small Business Advocate,\u2019\u2019 an online and nationally syndicated radio show. \u2018\u2018The customers and opportunity pass right through you.\u2019\u2019\nSales at Bad Pickle Tees have doubled since Cyndi Grasman began selling her quirky food-related T-shirts online a year ago. She started the business in 2012, selling shirts with sayings like \u2018\u2018Oh Kale Yeah!\u2019\u2019 and \u2018\u2018I Heart Bacon\u2019\u2019 at food festivals. She launched the site using website publishing company Weebly, paying $250 a year.\n\u2018\u2018I\u2019m reaching a larger audience,\u2019\u2019 she said.\nMarilyn Caskey, owner of The Garment Exchange, launched a website for her San Antonio consignment shop two years ago using a Google program. The store used to get calls all the time asking which clothing designers the shop resells.\n\u2018\u2018I\u2019ll be trying to ring up a sale and someone would call,\u2019\u2019 said Caskey, who would read through a list to the caller of all the designers the store does and doesn\u2019t buy. \u2018\u2018Now, we refer them to the website.\u2019\u2019\nAmy Gilson hopes to be able to do that soon for her Oklahoma City snack food business Healthy Cravings. All customers see on EatHealthyCravings.com is a message that the site is coming soon.\n\u2018\u2018Right now, I do everything,\u2019\u2019 Gilson said. \u2018\u2018I am the accountant, the marketer, the salesman.\u2019\u2019\n\u2018\u2018I can\u2019t wait for my website,\u2019\u2019 said Gilson, who also plans to sell treats from the site. \u2018\u2018I can just send [customers] there.\u2019\u2019",

        "raw_content": "Seized fake cigarettes and alcohol from Lincolnshire raids turned in electricity\nSome of the seized fake alcohol from the raids\nMore than 152,000 cigarettes and tonnes of illegal alcohol seized during raids in Lincolnshire will today, Thursday July 13, be turned into electricity.\nA total of 152,360 counterfeit cigarettes, 25kg of hand rolling tobacco and tonnes of illegal alcohol were seized over the last 12 months during raids by Lincolnshire Trading Standards and Lincolnshire Police.\nSome of the seized fake cigarettes from the raids\nTaken to a specialist recycling centre, the cigarettes will be broken down and made into electricity which is then fed into the National Grid.\nThe counterfeit liquid is mixed with food stuffs and enzymes to create gas. This gas is then burned to produce electricity, which is then also fed into the National Grid\nEmma Milligan, principal trading standards officer at Lincolnshire County Council, said: \u201cWe see tackling the sale of counterfeit and illegal cigarettes and alcohol as a priority. The cigarettes often contain things real cigarette manufacturers wouldn\u2019t normally use, meaning that a carton of cheap cigarettes isn\u2019t a good deal at all, but can actually pose a serious health risk.\n\u201cSome cigarettes do not self-extinguish and are therefore extremely dangerous. Illegal brands, such as Pect, Black Mount and Jin Lings, don\u2019t comply with the UK safety standard of RIP (Reduced Ignition Propensity), meaning they don\u2019t go out when not actively being smoked.\n\u201cMany bottles of alcohol including red and white wine and bottles of beer, were seized for non-payment of duty, while others were seized as they were counterfeit or fake and potentially very dangerous, containing industrial alcohol which is unfit for human consumption\u201d,\n\u201cIt\u2019s vital that these products can no longer be sold to unsuspecting members of the public, and through taking them to be recycled at least there is a positive outcome.\n\u201cIf you do suspect anyone of selling cheap, illegal cigarettes or alcohol, you can call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111 to avoid tragic cases in the future.\u201d",

        "title": "Manny Pacquiao, Floyd Mayweather Must Bend Opponent\u2019s Emotions",
        "raw_content": "Manny Pacquiao, Floyd Mayweather Must Bend Opponent\u2019s Emotions\nLots of fighters, trainers, and other experts have been doing a fine job analyzing the intricate advantages and disadvantages of each fighter in the history-making super-contest this Saturday night.\nIt\u2019s Manny Pacquiao\u2019s straight left against Floyd Mayweather\u2019s shoulder roll, Floyd\u2019s straight right against Manny\u2019s vulnerable southpaw stance. And so on. And all that is fascinating.\nInevitably, we hear that it all comes down to who wants it more. That\u2019s often true, but in this case their desire to win may be too strong to even measure. Unless there\u2019s a rematch, which is unlikely, this will be the biggest fight of their lives, the chief standard by which their fantastic decades-long careers will be quantified.\nBernard Hopkins expects a knockdown or two because in the split-second give and take of offense, defense, and counter-offense, there will be moments when something won\u2019t work for one of them.\nAt the start, the pressure is on Congressman Pacquiao, who feels the weight of the entire Philippines nation on his shoulders. In order to win, he\u2019s got to hurt his man and then take advantage of the opportunity. But Mayweather needs only to do what he\u2019s done his entire career \u2014 slip or blunt what\u2019s coming at him, counter it from his lengthy list of offensive tricks, and, as usual, win more rounds.\nIn fact, according to Oscar De La Hoya, Mayweather doesn\u2019t even need to win all those points by himself. He merely, as old-timers like to say, needs to make it close enough to steal.\n\u201cLook,\u201d Oscar told the Los Angeles Times, \u201cit\u2019s Las Vegas, Mayweather\u2019s hometown. His picture\u2019s on the side of the MGM. The close rounds are going to go to Mayweather. It\u2019s big business. It\u2019s no secret.\u201d\nFloyd Mayweather vs. Manny Pacquiao \u2014 who can impose his will?\nYes, Oscar doesn\u2019t much like Floyd, and the feeling is mutual. But if you check the video of Floyd\u2019s first outing against Jose Luis Castillo, you know The Golden Boy isn\u2019t imagining anything here.\nOr just check the record of the fight that almost everybody agrees Castillo won. It was April 20, 2002, MGM Grand, three lopsided scores for Mayweather were turned in by John Keane, Jerry Roth, and Anek Hongtongkam. And just to make sure everybody got the message, the Nevada commission chose Roth to score four additional Mayweather bouts and Keane one more.\nYou could argue that Pacquiao (57-5-2, 38 KOs) gets no favors in Las Vegas, where he lost a crazily scored split decision to Timothy Bradley in their first contest and came away with only a draw against Juan Manuel Marquez in their first fight after knocking down Marquez three times in the first round.\nAnd none of this is a secret to Mayweather (48-0, 26 KOs), who is one of the best money weapons Las Vegas can bring to bear against rival Macau, which stole so many of the city\u2019s high-rolling visitors.\nYou could find two other reasons Floyd wins in Las Vegas. One, he almost always deserves to win, and two, judges, who\u2019ve never seen him lose, expect him to win. So they\u2019re susceptible to seeing what they expect to see instead of what\u2019s actually happening. Plenty of scientific experiments prove this phenomenon exists. Behavioral scientists even have a term for it: cognitive bias.\nIt\u2019s no secret that much of the sweet science has to do with what\u2019s in the mind \u2013 both in terms of intelligence and emotions. Each of the fighters will try to bend the emotions of the other and make him doubt his powers.\nAfter the fight starts, Floyd will try to induce Manny to believe, at least in his subconscious, that Floyd just can\u2019t be beat in Las Vegas, that he\u2019s too slick and all the factors that favor him are too overwhelming.\nExcept there\u2019s also this: Floyd didn\u2019t want this fight. CBS Chairman Les Moonves had to intervene to get him to accept the largest purse in history, and it still wasn\u2019t easy, not even with a 60-40 split in Floyd\u2019s favor. Why? Because something in Mayweather\u2019s mind told him no, don\u2019t do it.\nDuring the course of the contest, it will be up to Manny to remind Floyd just what it was that made him hesitate.\nNeither fighter has an easy task ahead.",

        "raw_content": "Interview with Lucian Bute: \u201cI\u2019m looking very forward to November 28th, to be one more time a World Champion\u201d\nLucian Bute (32-2 25KO) is the former IBF Super Middleweight champion. He is a thirty-five year old Romanian, who now fights out of Quebec, Canada. In 2012, he lost his title to future Hall of Famer, Carl Froch for his first professional loss. And last year he lost a rough and tough battle against fellow countryman Jean Pascal in the Light Heavyweight division.\nOn November 28th from the Centre Videotron in his hometown of Quebec City, Lucian Bute will get another shot at reclaiming the belt he lost in 2012 against British fighter James DeGale. Lucian was nice enough to take a few moments and speak with us about his upcoming championship fight.\nBoxing Insider: So what do you know about your opponent James DeGale?\nLucian Bute: I saw his last fight with Dirrell. I know that he is an Olympic Champion in 2008, now he is the IBF Champion. I expect a good fight. He is a good southpaw fighter. He sometimes can switch to right handed well. He has good skill, good power and good speed. He is good.\nBoxing Insider: Are you comfortable going back down to the Super Middleweight division, after stepping up to Light Heavyweight briefly?\nLucian Bute: Of course. I have no problem with the weights. I am very comfortable at 168. I was champion of the division for five years. Absolutely no problem with this weight.\nBoxing Insider: How about your age, do you feel that will play a role in this fight, being the older fighter?\nLucian Bute: I think the age helps. I have more experience since he is younger. It is an advantage for me.\nBoxing Insider: Your last fight at Super Middleweight was against Carl Froch, which was your first loss. How did you get this title shot so quickly after that?\nLucian Bute: It was a learning experience for me to lose my belt in England. I had to learn some things and I stayed out of the ring for two years. Now I feel more comfortable with who I am, and I am very happy to have this opportunity to fight for the world title.\nBoxing Insider: How important is it for you to have this fight in Quebec, which is your adoptive city?\nLucian Bute: It is very important for me because this fight will be in MY home town. My crowd will be my people, my fans, behind me, supporting me. I\u2019m very happy that this fight is taking place here in Canada.\nBoxing Insider: Do you see this fight as a \u201clast chance\u201d for you to get a title?\nLucian Bute: I don\u2019t think so. I feel great, I \u2018m healthy, I go to the gym every day. I love what I do. I don\u2019t think so. I\u2019m looking very forward to November 28th to be one more time a world champion. This is my goal, this is my dream.\nBoxing Insider: Is there a chance of you moving up to light heavyweight in the future?\nLucian Bute: I don\u2019t think so, I prefer to stay at 168. It is my weight, my class. At this weight I feel very comfortable. It would be more difficult for me to move up to 175.",

        "raw_content": "Return to Snow Country\n(Kenna Trees)\nFjallabak ('fiatlaback'), means 'behind the mountains'. It is a nature reserve situated in the central highlands of Iceland. It is also a place of remote, rugged and stark beauty.\nIn terms of colour and tone, I find Fjallabak to be the antithesis of the Bolivian altiplano.\nAlthough both these landscapes can be vast, empty, minimal places, brothers of a sort, I approach Fjallabak very differently to that of its south american counterpart.\nWhere the altiplano asks for its bright vivid landscape to be embraced for what is there, Fjallabak is the opposite. With it's leanings towards the darker registers of tonality, it is a landscape occupied by suggestion and mystery. This I feel, is a quality that when found, should be embraced.\nShadows and dark tones in the landscape tap into our primeval instincts. These are spaces where our imagination is allowed to run free.\nMy previous visits to Patagonia yielded monochromatic, often dark toned imagery. I felt at the time this really summed up my view of this landscape.\nSeems I may have been too quick to judge as this year I found myself confronted with a softer, lighter view of the place.\nBut I think this new lighter imagery came about because of what I'd learned during my recent trip to Hokkaido. It was there that I finally felt I came to terms with lighter tones in my work.\nSince visiting Hokkaido in December 2015, I feel my images have been moving towards the higher registers of luminosity. Rather than focussing on the dark tones and 'drama', I now feel I've found a few more octaves of light to play with. I feel I'm in new territory.\nIn this new work, there is a mixture of dark tones and sometimes light, airy tones. The skill, I believe, is to marry them so they feel part of the same set.\nI'm so fortunate to return to Patagonia on a yearly basis. I feel as though this landscape often sets me new challenges, new homework, something to help my photography grow in some way.\nUpper tones and new awareness\nI\u2019ve been playing with the upper registers of tone lately. It\u2019s been a progressional thing for me. I started out years ago with contrasty dark images, but some places just don\u2019t suit that kind of treatment. The Atacama of Chile and the Altiplano of Bolivia are two such places.\nI call them collectively the Altiplano as it\u2019s a place that is void of borders for me; in my dreams and in my mind I only see one landscape.\nThis year was an El Ni\u00f1o year. It wasn\u2019t by far the best year for those vibrant tones I often see at high elevation each sunrise and sunset. But there\u2019s a danger in comparing a visit to a previous one and not running with what you\u2019ve got. This year\u2019s images seem to convey a different quality of light in that respect, and I can\u2019t help think it\u2019s because I\u2019ve chosen to go with what the landscape offered me, than try to get it to submit to any pre-conceived ideas I may have had.\nThe Altiplano has been a love-affair for me since 2009. I visit the same places each year but I still feel I\u2019m learning and growing. This landscape has taught me so much in terms of simplicity, but also in terms of listening to what it wants to say, and letting it dictate to me rather than me dictate to it. Because of this, it is a surprising place in more ways than I can convey.\nThe Puna de Atacama or Atacama Plateau is an arid high plateau in the Andes of Argentina. The term \"Puna\" (Quechua) means \"Moor\" or \"Cool Earth\".\nI first came to know about it though a chance encounter in my dentist's waiting room about a year ago. A travel magazine featuring pictures of what I initially thought was either the Chilean or Bolivian Atacama grabbed my attention. So familiar was the landscape that I assumed I must know of it. But I had never been here nor heard of it until this very moment.\nOne picture in particular drew me in. In a double-page spread, I found myself staring at the oddest looking conical shaped mountain I\u2019d ever seen. Cono de Arita rises 122 meters above the Salar de Arizaro, the sixth largest salt flat on earth. It is also quite a distance from the nearest village of Tolar Grande which is 70km away.\nCono de Arita is an arresting object to experience. The way the tones of its dark pyramid shape contrast with the surrounding salt flat is quite startling. From the moment I saw that first picture of it, I knew I had to come and visit.\nAll the images in this portfolio were made during a six day tour. Just myself and my guide Pancho in his little 4WD pickup truck. He had water canisters in the back and a collection of Argentine music in the cab.\nWe spoke of many things during our drive across the plateau - he of Argentine culture, the geology of the landscape and most importantly, of his love for his beautiful little daughter. I spoke of what it's like to be Scottish and my love for the high plateau landscapes of the Andes.\nAt each moment of our many conversations, we remained the only static things in the landscape while outside, the terrain was always changing. Sometimes the transition would be instantaneous, other times we would spend many hours with the landscape not changing at all.\nFor instance, the journey out to the Cono de Arita for sunrise, a mere 70km away from the town we slept in, seemed to last forever. Despite seeing the volcano for well over an hour from the front seat of Pancho's 4WD, we seemed to get no closer to it. Such is the optical illusion of driving over a large salt flat: things far away appear to be deceptively close.\nBut what I discovered in the Puna was much more than the tantalising shape of cono de Arita. The Campo de Piedra Pom\u00e9z (pumice stone field) for instance, is a massive area littered with pumice rock as big as boats and shaped just like them. Each rock faces the same way, with their sharply defined bows pointing towards some imaginary destination, ready to sail.\nI ran out of time. Six days isn\u2019t really nearly enough time to do the Puna justice. The distances were great, and due to frustration of not knowing the places well, I missed an awful lot. I often felt I turned up at places that would be great during sunrise, but I was there for sunset.\nLike I always say to people who ask me how I find out about where to shoot:\n\"I often go at least twice, the first time to find out what it is I should photograph, the second time to go and photograph it. And if I really fall in love with the place, I keep going back to delve beneath the obvious\".\nI am already hatching plans to do just that.\nThere are landscapes that we find challenging and hard, yet we find ourselves returning. It is as if we know there is something there, something worth shooting. It's just that we're not sure what's missing inside of ourselves to allow us to capture what we're feeling.\nFor me, Easter Island is just like that.\nThere's a starkness to this place. Black volcanic rubble litters the landscape and often times the light during the day is so harsh it seems that I'll never find the soft tones that I'm seeking in my photography. The light for me, is so different that I really can't make my mind up how best to approach it, so much so, that I've tried going back in different seasons to see if the light is more workable.\nThis June was perhaps the most successful trip I've had there to date, because it was also the most cloudy. With occasional overcast days that allowed me to shoot the statues and landscape with softer tones, I was happy. But I couldn't shake the feeling that I was still very much in my own comfort zone, willing the landscape to conform to me, and not me to it.\nIt's been thirteen years since I first visited the island. During that time I've been to many places that have resonated with me, where I feel I was able to grow and produce good work. I've also built up a lot of shooting hours now, so I had high hopes that if I returned to Easter Island now, I may be able to work with it.\nThis turned out to be only partly true. What I did discover was just how much I've changed since that first trip in 2003. I found myself reflecting a lot on what my level of ability was back then from a technical stand point, but I was more interested to discover that I was really looking for very different things now. I felt as if someone had peeled back a curtain to show me more than I'd been able to comprehend on my first visit.\nIt was enlightening in more ways than I could have imagined.\nBeing able to look back at where I'd come from was one thing. But because I was in a landscape that conjured up memories and feelings of who I was back in 2003, I couldn't help feel very reflective about my life. So much time had passed, and rather than being someone in is mid-30's, I was now someone fast approaching 50. I couldn't help look within.\nI've often attributed photography to being another way for me to meditate. When I am out there making photos, I become invisible to myself. Time disappears, and the present moment often becomes the only thing occupying my mind.\nI am here. Nothing else matters. The past and the future don't even enter into my mind. But sometimes, just sometimes, when I visit certain landscapes they seem to act as a mirror, a time to reflect upon who I am, where I've been and what life has meant to me so far. Other times they ask me questions about where I'm going and what the future may hold.\nThe landscapes we get to know hold many memories for us. They record imprints of who we were and what we were thinking during our past visits, and they remind us of these each time we return. It's a beautiful and special relationship, and I am often reminded that we're not simply here to make great captures; we're also here because of what this exchange does for us on a more intimate and personal level.\nI guess that's why I keep returning to Easter Island. It is a landscape that asks lots of questions through the history I have with it.\nI had no idea just how different and how wild the island of Senja would be compared to its more southerly neighbour, the Lofoten Islands. Norway's second largest island, Senja is an arctic wilderness.\nWhere the Lofoten islands are densely populated with many towns and houses dotted around the landscape, Senja has few. It leaves a lasting impression of an island that is bereft of people, a place where nature is in charge.\nI found many motifs to work with here. In winter time, Senja's natural forests - of which there are many - offer up graphic black brush strokes on a white canvas of snow. It's a motif that I spent many happy hours working with. I particularly liked the days when the sky was just as blank and empty as the snow filled landscape was. At these times, sky and ground became inseparable; one and the same. A canvas with which to draw on.\nSnow Country - Homage to Kenna\nI was drawn here by the stunningly beautiful mono work of Michael Kenna. His highly personalised view of this island as a perpetual winter landscape of lone trees and fence posts, like brush strokes on a white canvas, left an indelible mark on my mind many moons ago. To my mind, Hokkaido is Kenna and Kenna is Hokkaido.\nThere is always value in following in the footsteps of those who influence you. You can learn so much from them. But at some point your paths should diverge as you find your own voice. This I believe only happens after some time.\nI think I always knew I was going to come to Hokkaido. Like a rite of passage, I had to experience it for myself. I just didn\u2019t know I would do it so late in my own photographic development, nor with the kind help of Michael Kenna himself.\nI believe it's healthy to recognise my influences. Not only does the acknowledgement allow me to embrace them for what they have given me, but I also get the chance to consciously thank them for showing me the way forward. I've learned so much from studying Kenna\u2019s minimalist style, particularly his Hokkaido landscapes. These lessons have been invaluable, and for this, I will always be eternally grateful. Thank you Michael.",

His commentary on political, cultural and emotional life spans more than forty years and has often explored the idea of an innocent and sacred personal world. The fragile ecosystem of human nature and its relationship to the wider natural world is a related and recurrent theme.\nHis newspaper work appears regularly in the Melbourne Age and the Sydney Morning Herald. He describes his approach as regressive, humorous, messy, mystical, primal and vaudevillian - producing work which is open to many interpretations and has been widely adapted in education, music, theatre, psychotherapy and spiritual life.\nLeunig, a noted social observer, will outline a perspective on the future of Australian society and then engage in discussion with the audience about that future. In encouraging the exploration of ideas in a humorous context that might otherwise go unsaid, the purpose of the session is to have our members return to work with a new perspective on their work.\nUltimately the imaginative discussion may trigger creative and effective solutions to the problems they are working on.\nWhat are the developing societal needs that will shape demand for government services over the coming decade?\nHow do people feel about the public service?

        "raw_content": "7 Ways To Make Yourself Feel Better When You're Lonely\nDoes the winter have you feeling blue? Here are seven ways to feel better when you're lonely, because the seasons have a tendency to affect people \u2014 big time. And guess what else? Sometimes you just feel lonely, even if it is in the middle of summer. It happens to everyone, so let's deal with it.\nThe most important thing to realize about feeling lonely is that everybody goes through it. The problem is that when you're feeling lonely, that fact can be very hard to believe. But it's true! Even if someone is constantly surrounded by friends and family, she can still feel lonely; and reversely, if someone really is isolated a lot of the time, she can certainly feel lonely as well. It's common to humankind, and realizing that fact in and of itself can be a huge help if you're struggling with loneliness.\nWhile I would certainly encourage finding ways to reach out in your situation and connect with the local community (be it through classes, meet-up groups, or anything that brings people together over a common interest), these seven suggestions below can help you find a sense of peace in your isolation. How? Mostly by reminding you that you're not actually isolated.\n1. Go people watching at the park.\nThere's a reason people watching can be so entertaining. It takes you out of your own thoughts and helps you to look outward. Looking outward means that you're not so focused inwardly, where your loneliness is brewing. You don't have to know someone personally to get social enjoyment. In fact, sometimes it's our moments with strangers that are the most memorable and noteworthy.\n2. Read a book in a coffee shop.\nThere are three great things about reading a book in a coffee shop. First, the book transports you to another world. Second, the coffee shop provides a comfortable social space to indulge in regardless of being alone. Third, the coffee.\n3. Treat yourself to a movie.\nSimilarly to reading a book, going to see a movie provides a nice escape from your current state of mind. Movies remind us that anything is possible, and that though you may feel alone, we're really all in this together. I mean, is there anything more communal than sitting in a dark room and staring at the same thing (and feeling the same heavy emotions arise) with a bunch of strangers?\nMost of the time when we get ourselves down, it's because we're letting our mind take us there. While it's true that some days, weeks, and even months may suck, you have to remember that life doesn't suck. If you're not able to see your friends and family, you can still be grateful that you have friends and family somewhere in the country. If you're feeling lonely at home, you can be grateful that you have a home. See where I'm going with this?\n5. Call a friend or family member.\nJust because you can't physically hang out with your friends and family doesn't mean that you can't talk to them. Pick up a phone and call somebody you know if you're feeling lonely. You might have nothing to say, but I can guarantee you that those are the best phone calls to make. An hour of catching up will fly by before you know it.\n6. Plan a future trip.\nYou're never stuck in any situation. You can always get yourself out of it. One quick way to do this without uprooting your entire life and career? Take a vacation. Even the sole act of planning a vacation is enough to get someone feeling motivated again.\n7. Go for a long walk or jog.\nOne word: endorphins. I know you probably hate to hear it, but exercising is so key to lifting your spirits. Whether it's simply a 30 minute walk or a quick jog around the neighborhood, you will start to feel better almost immediately. Crazy how that works. Take advantage of it.\nImages: Fotolia, Giphy (7)",

        "raw_content": "The Sims win the Two Generation Foursomes\nDespite the inclement weather conditions, a cohort of forty of our bravest members turned up to play in this year\u2019s family event; the Two Generation Foursomes!\nThe competition was fierce, just like the wind and the intermittent rain, but the eventual outright winners were Josh and Henry Sims with a staggering 35 points! A huge congratulations to them both!\nIt was fantastic to witness that this competition was well attended by Caldy members from across the age groups, but it was particularly nice to see so many of our Juniors playing with their family members. With that in mind, \u201cextra\u201d prizes were awarded to the top three finishing Juniors, which in order of merit were Adam Durband (32), Sam Lea (31) and George Rowan (30).\nThe prize giving also provided the opportunity to congratulate our very own Sam Johnston, who got a hole in one at the 8th on Saturday, the 22nd of September 2018, whilst playing in the Gawith Cup.\nIt has to be said that the pin was in a tricky position, just beyond the near side bunkers, and that this was no mean feat!\nOur reporter on the ground asked Sam if he had any words of wisdom for his fellow club members. His reply was, \u201cPretty simple really, you have to be in it to win it!\u201d. In recognition of Sam\u2019s triumph, he received a special prize at the prize ceremony for this year\u2019s Two Generation Foursomes. Sam will also receive a separate award at the next meeting of the 200 club. From all at Caldy, well done Sam!\nA special thank you to our ex-Captain, David Crinson who very kindly agreed to oversee the prize giving ceremony.\nAlso, a big thank you to Mark and his team from Pickled Walnut for the food which was very welcome after being exposed to the elements!\nWe hope to see you all back again next year!\nOur winners Josh and Henry Sims with a staggering 35 points!\nAdam Durband finished on 32 points\nSam Lea finished on 31 points\nGeorge Rowan finished on 30 points\nSam Johnston awarded a prize for his hole in one in the Gawith Cup on Saturday.\nhttps://www.caldygolfclub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/The-Winners-Josh-and-Henry-Sims.jpg 600 900 kc_chris https://www.caldygolfclub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/logo3.png kc_chris2018-09-24 10:59:122018-09-24 11:06:35The Sims win the Two Generation Foursomes\nQuiz Nights Night Golf returns to Caldy Golf Club",

Officially, we are a Cambridge University Society but are open to members of Anglia Ruskin University (ARU), Cambridge Regional College (CRC) and other colleges in Cambridge. We run events and support the District daily by providing weekly volunteers for groups and providing specialist skills as well as running social activities, camps and training.\nWe aim to provide a mix of social and adventurous activities for our members, as well as running large events for local scouting and guiding and supporting members who want to help in groups.\nFirstly, we run service events, currently 2 per year, for local scout, Guide, Explorer and Senior Section Units and their leaders. These normally take the form of incident hikes. We can also help students find groups to volunteer with if they wish.\nSecondly, we organise activities for club members. We have a full programme of activities throughout Cambridge University term time, including kayaking, fires, walks, games nights and craft. We also run a number of trips away during the university holidays. We regularly have a trip around Christmas time, which, for the last few years, has been a walking trip was to the Peak district. Depending on demand, we run other trips throughout the year. This year, we camped at a local campsite for 2 nights and did lots of water activities , including rafting, kayaking, raft-jousting, paddle boarding, as well as bush craft and fire making and cooking.\nWe are affiliated to SSAGO (Student Scout and Guide Organisation), which means we can also attend national rallies (camps), balls and events. In Summer 2018, we will be hosting a Rally in Newmarket (Jarman Centre).\nYou can be involved (or uninvolved) in CUSAGC as you like.

        "title": "Cancer News in Context: PALB2 Mutation: A \"New\" Gene That Greatly Increases Breast Cancer Risk",
        "raw_content": "PALB2 Mutation: A \"New\" Gene That Greatly Increases Breast Cancer Risk\nPhoto: Flickr/Micahb37\nThere\u2019s been a recent surge in women asking for genetic testing for breast cancer, due in large part to Angelina Jolie\u2019s public decision last year to get a prophylactic mastectomy after discovering she had a mutation in the BRCA1 gene. These days, another breast cancer gene has been making headlines, a gene called PALB2.\nMutations in BRCA1, and its related gene, BRCA2, are the two most important known genetic links to breast cancer risk. Well, new findings on PALB2 have some describing it as the \u201cthird gene\u201d to be linked with breast cancer.\nPrevious studies have found that mutations in PALB2 combined with mutations in the BRCA genes increased the risk of breast cancer. PALB2 is even short for Partner and Localizer of BRCA2. What we didn\u2019t know was how much the risk of breast cancer increased with a PALB2 mutation alone \u2013 that is without a related BRCA mutation.\nIn August, the New England Journal of Medicine published a study that characterized patients with only a PALB2 mutation. To do this, researchers identified patients who did not have a BRCA1/2 mutation but who had a history of breast cancer in at least one family member. These patients were then tested for the PALB2 mutation.\nThe results showed that a PALB2 mutation by itself increased the risk of breast cancer 9.5 times compared to the general population. They also showed that, for those with a mutation in PALB2, the risk of developing breast cancer by age 70 was about 33%, as compared to a 12% lifetime risk in the general population. Furthermore, for those with a PALB2 mutation who also had two first-degree relatives (like your mom and your sister) with breast cancer, the risk of developing breast cancer by age 70 increased to more than 50%. For comparison, a BRCA1 mutation increases your risk of developing breast cancer, by age 70, to 55-65%. So BRCA mutations are still considered more risky.\nSo what does all this new information mean to you?\nJust like with the BRCA genes, it would only be recommended that you get screened for PALB2 mutation if you have a strong history of breast or ovarian cancer in your family, such as:\nBreast cancer in more than one family member\nBreast cancer diagnosed before the age of 50\nBreast cancer diagnosed in both breasts (bilateral breast cancer)\nBreast cancer plus ovarian or pancreatic cancer\nMany women at low risk for gene mutations are needlessly tested every year, which can cause a great deal of unnecessary anxiety.\nIf a woman tests positive for a BRCA mutation, we offer increased cancer screening, risk-reducing medications, prophylactic mastectomy, or some combination of these. While it\u2019s likely such approaches will also help protect women with a PALB2 mutation, there is currently no evidence that they have benefit. More research is needed.\nGenetic mutations like BRCA1/2 and PALB2 are frightening because they increase the risk of breast cancer by such a great degree. But it\u2019s important to also keep in mind that they are rare. Around one in 400 women in the United States have a BRCA mutation, which translates to 0.25 percent of American women. And even women who have such mutations are not guaranteed to develop the disease.\nFor the large majority of women, the most important things they can do to improve their health and lower the risk of breast cancer is to focus on living an overall healthy lifestyle that includes: being physically active for at least 30 minutes a day, keeping weight in check, and drinking alcohol only moderately, if at all.\nAntonis C.

        "raw_content": "World War II-era contaminated debris was found at U.S. Coast Guard Yard in 2014, but confirmed only recently\nDebris from World War II era buildings at the U.S. Coast Guard Yard in Curtis Bay has been found to contain elevated levels of heavy metals. (Kim Hairston, Baltimore Sun video)\nU.S. Coast Guard officials uncovered World War II-era debris four years ago, just across a cove from a former Superfund site on its Curtis Bay yard.\nBut it was only recently officials confirmed that the brick, rebar and other remains of former boot camp buildings contain elevated levels of heavy metals \u2014 and decided to make that public, according to Capt. Matt Lake, the yard\u2019s commanding officer.\n\u201cAll we knew back then, when it was discovered, was that it was some construction debris,\u201d Lake said. \u201cAll we found were some very superficial elevated limits of some heavy metals. We really didn\u2019t understand the scope so there wasn\u2019t much to report.\u201d\nCurtis Bay has been the home to thriving industry and the U.S. Coast Guard Yard.\nThe Coast Guard announced Wednesday that erosion uncovered the debris on the southeast side of its Hawkins Point base in August 2014, in an area of trees, picnic pavilions and baseball fields known as the Grove. Preliminary testing results show metals and other contaminants in the soil and the groundwater across about a third of an acre, as far down as 8 feet, Lake said.\nAs a result of the recent test results, officials have temporarily suspended fishing and crabbing from a small pier near the site, \u201cout of an abundance of caution.\u201d The pier is only accessible to the 2,200 people who work at the installation, which is home to the Coast Guard\u2019s only shipyard.\nLake said the testing process is lengthy because it requires getting approvals and funding to hire an environmental contractor, and coordination with officials from the Environmental Protection Agency and Maryland Department of the Environment.\nEnvironmental regulators are investigating what appear to be World War II-era debris at the U.S. Coast Guard Yard base in Curtis Bay that was previously designated a Superfund site because of contaminants in the soil.\nAlthough early testing has not found anything that would pose an immediate threat,...\nFurther testing will be conducted to see how serious and widespread the contamination is. Along with lead and other metals, chemicals known as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, chemicals released from burning fossil fuels, trash, and wood, and polychlorinated biphenyls, a category of commercial and industrial chemicals found in fish and sediment throughout the Baltimore harbor and other waterways.\nEPA spokesman David Sternberg said \u201cnone of the sampling has indicated an imminent and substantial threat to human health or the environment which would cause EPA to act to expedite the process.\u201d The agency has reviewed the Coast Guard\u2019s plan to conduct more testing, he said.\nAn MDE spokesman said the agency has had \u201climited involvement\u201d at the site.\nAfter nearly a dozen years, $16 million and the removal of some 50,000 tons of contaminated dirt, the Coast Guard declared the Superfund site at the Coast Guard Yard south of Baltimore cleaned and ready for duty Thursday.\nThe yard landed on the Superfund list \u2014 a national registry of sites designated...\nA portion of the Coast Guard yard separate from the area currently being investigated was formerly a Superfund site, but was declared cleaned up in 2013. That site included an unpaved salvage yard that once stored drums of lubrication oil, lead acid batteries and transformers, and a pit that was used to burn oil, metal and waste.\nThe area around the new contamination was \u201cessentially housing,\u201d Lake said. The base was used as a training depot in the 1940s, but the boot camp buildings were torn down after the Korean War, he said.\n\u201cGiven the nature of the yard, whenever we find stuff that\u2019s underground, we assume there\u2019s a possibility of some contamination,\u201d Lake said.\nIt is one more example of contamination in an area plagued by the toxic remnants of old industry. There are more than a dozen brownfield sites \u2014 where EPA has ordered cleanup of soils saturated by decades of industrial activity \u2014 in nearby Brooklyn, Cherry Hill and Westport.\nGreg Sawtell, a community organizer with United Workers in Curtis Bay, said the test results make him wonder what other hazards may be hiding there.\n\u201cIt raises some bigger questions about what other stuff has yet to be discovered,\u201d he said.\nMayor Gavin Buckley establishes 'Cabinet' to monitor health of Annapolis waterways\nMaryland could be banned from dredging Man O\u2019 War Shoal\nChesapeake Bay Program analyst selected as Anne Arundel environmental policy specialist\nJimmy DeButts: Chesapeake Bay will feel the consequences of federal shutdown\nRight now, Annapolis can't pay to protect itself against climate change.

        "raw_content": "Home > Caregiving Topics > End of Life Planning > Compose Your Life Song > How to Begin the Final Wishes Conversation\nCollette\u2019s father had a small stroke at age 70 from which he nearly fully recovered. But because he feared another one that could be more debilitating, her dad started the conversation. \u201cHe told me that under no circumstances should I allow CPR, intubation, resuscitation or any other \u2018heroic measures,\u2019\u201d Collette said.\n\u201cYears later he had a heart attack and, while in a coma, the doctor informed me that his only chance of survival depended on his having open heart surgery. When I pressed the doctor to describe what Dad\u2019s lifestyle and quality of life after this surgery would likely be, he told me that IF Dad survived the surgery, he would have many months of difficult recovery in a hospital and would most likely need to move into long-term care. It was easy for me to withhold consent for this surgery because I understood his wishes very well.\u201d\nCollette\u2019s father died 12 hours later. \u201cWhen he took his last breath, I experienced something profoundly beautiful although no words can adequately describe it. It was as if I stood with him inside a portal where boundaries and identities did not exist, only a sublime peace. And still, all these years later, I feel only joy associated with his passing. Together we stood at the threshold of a great mystery, and I have never feared my own death since, and have always been so very happy for him, for passing with such ease.\u201d\nCollette\u2019s poignant story, which appears on the Conversation Project website illustrates how sharing end-of-life wishes can bring clarity and comfort to families during difficult hospice and dying situations.\nThe Conversation Project Starter Kit walks individuals and their family members through a process of starting and completing important conversations. Sharing these wishes could help bring families together, notes the website, which is dedicated to helping people talk about their wishes for end-of-life care.\nFollowing, from Dr. Julie Masters, chair of the Department of Gerontology at the University of Nebraska at Omaha, are tips for getting the conversation started (adapted from \u201cHaving the Talk of a Lifetime\u201d (2014); Funeral and Memorial Information Council):\nDon\u2019t stress. Choose a neutral setting and stay calm when having important end-of-life conversations. Keeping the talk on an even keel will help accomplish more.\nHave a conversation with someone close to you. Share sensitive topics with close family or friends. Choose someone you trust to talk with or, if you\u2019re helping a senior, make sure they are speaking to someone close to them.\nListen and keep an open mind. Certain topics could generate drastic reactions. Always listen with an open mind and don\u2019t be offended by what you hear.\nMove on if it\u2019s uncomfortable. Unless there is a time constraint, move on to another topic if the conversation is uncomfortable. It may be best to return to a conversation that\u2019s causing distress. Some discussions, such as \u201cWho do you want to care for you if you can\u2019t care for yourself,\u201d can cause angst. Before a crisis happens, tread carefully and try to get the answers you need.\nConsider using photos and heirlooms as conversation starters. Family heirlooms make good door openers to sensitive conversations. \u201cThat\u2019s so nice you want to leave your garnet pin to your granddaughter. What are other things you would like at the end of your life?\u201d\nExpress what you would like to have at your own funeral or memorial service. Sensitive conversations can be a two-way street. Tell your loved one what your own wishes are, which could help initiate the conversation with him or her about what they would like.\n\u201cAt some point, adult children need to understand they should be the ones making the decisions,\u201d Masters said. \u201cOne can\u2019t stay in a child\u2019s role. You have to be the adult in the room and make a decision that is in the best interest and safety of a loved one. That requires a willingness to let go of the old self in favor of the new self. For some people, that\u2019s very difficult. It\u2019s hard to let go. Adult children must mature into a new role \u2013 keeper of their parents.\u201d\nRemember, discussions should be about how to live to the very end of our lives not just how to die.\nCompose Your Life Song\u2120 Music Generator\nhttps://www.caregiverstress.com/end-of-life-planning/compose-life-song/begin-final-wishes-conversation/",

MWPCCC is a community-based, non-profit organization in Northeast Los Angeles whose mission is to create, manage and sustain: 1. Developmentally appropriate, high quality, available, culturally-sensitive preschool, childcare and family support services; 2. Collaboration with other organizations to promote children\u2019s optimal development and enhance the quality of family life in our diverse community. Harry Pregerson Child Care Center is housed in the Roybal Federal building in downtown Los Angeles. Christina Waterman, MA, is the Center Director. She began this journey with us in June of 2016. Rocio Urias, who is the office manager, has been with our agency for over 12 years. The center has a licensed capacity of 50 children, with four classrooms. The infant room can have 9 infants ranging in age from 0-12 months (depending on walking), with 3 caregivers. The toddler room can have 10 toddlers, ranging in age from 12-24 months, with 3 caregivers. The preschool 1 room can have 14 children, with two preschool teachers. The preschool 2 room can have 17 children, ranging in age from 3-5 years 11 months, with 2 preschool teachers. MWPCCC addresses the needs of the whole child by providing opportunities in the interrelated areas of physical, social, language, emotional, cognitive and moral growth. Play is highly valued. We encourage children to explore, experiment, ask questions, initiate activities and solve problems in ways that are appropriate to their age and stage of development. Children learn best when they are motivated by their own curiosity and innate desire to discover, know and understand. We stress a cooperative approach and nurture creativity. While we allow your child a wide range of experiences and opportunities to explore their environment, we make sure your child feels stimulated but not threatened by excessive expectations. Most importantly, we try to make your child feel at ease, comfortable and secure in a nurturing setting in order to maximize their learning potential. All three centers have the same philosophy. We are all Developmentally Appropriate Play Based Centers, meaning we believe all children learn through play. Our curriculum is emergent where we observe the children, and see what interests them, and we grow our activities through their interests. We expand on their knowledge by asking open-ended questions. The activities are open ended, and we allow the child the freedom to choose which activities they want to do. Parents always ask, is their child learning academics? Yes, we incorporate academics through play. We will never do dittos, or worksheets, or coloring pages, or other boring, tedious things. Research shows that children who are given opportunities to explore and grow within their environment are more successful than their peers who are only exposed to worksheets and dittos. (Gorman, J 2016) Children need to learn the appropriate social-emotional skills to be successful in school. One aspect of academics that we are adding more of to our play this year is STEAM: Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Math. All of our centers have activities that integrate STEAM into our curriculum every day; however, now you will see the classrooms begin to document and display STEAM activities and projects. Here are some examples of how you will see STEAM in action: \u2022 Every day when we mix paints to find a new color, or when we mix water to our sand, we are using Science. We will be asking your child open-ended questions, to help with their critical thinking skills. Your child will learn about cause and effect, and predicting what will happen next. \u2022 For Technology, this one is hard. A lot of the research shows that in elementary schools, and in some preschools they are offering the children more screen time as a way to integrate Technology. Since this would interrupt our philosophy statement, I have found that cameras, or early technology, such as inclined planes and even scissors work. We might involve your children in the art of photography, and watch them take pictures of what they see. \u2022 When we build with blocks, or we become construction workers and build with the crates, we are doing Engineering. The teachers may ask the parents to help us with creating ramps for our balls, or water or engineer some tunnels. \u2022 We create a masterpiece out of paint, glue, watercolors, crayons or markers, this is Art. When the children paint on the easels, this is what gets them ready for writing later on. It\u2019s very important for children to paint on easels, with a variety of paints. \u2022 When we measure at the water table, or count the teddy bears, this is Math. We count all day long. In every room we use math. We count, we read books, and we talk about how many people are in their families. You may be asking yourself, what about the infants/toddlers. STEAM involves everyone, even the infants/toddlers. Based on the research from the Program for Infant and Toddler Care, we don\u2019t do messy art with babies under the age of 12 months. However, we use STEM with them every day. We assess the children using the SEAM, Social Emotional Assessment Measure. Where we look at the Social and Emotional development of your child. We also use a works sampling, observation based assessment where we look at your whole child's development. In this assessment, we involve the families as well.\nTiny Dots Early Education Center\nTiny Dots Early Education Center is a licensed child care center in... Los Angeles, CA.

        "raw_content": "What is going to happen to the educational landscape? Can traditional higher education continue with the status quo and survive? Will online learning take over? These and so many other interesting concepts are discussed in this fascinating and accessibly written book by Mirasee founder Danny Iny.\nTitle: Leveraged Learning: How the Disruption of Education Helps Lifelong Learners, and Experts with Something to Teach\nBy Author: Danny Iny\nPublisher: Ideapress Publishing\nAvailable through Amazon in hardcover, audiobook and Kindle editions. You can find it at other online and offline booksellers, as well.\nSummary of Leveraged Learning\nSince the Industrial Revolution, society has been changing more and more rapidly. Every industry and aspect of life has gone through at least one paradigm shift due to the disruption of some sometimes seemingly small change. According to author Danny Iny, it is now education\u2019s turn.\nIn Leveraged Learning, he explains a variety of concepts, from \u201cThe Story of Progress\u201d to \u201cWhy Modern Education Is Ineffective, Overpriced, and Ubiquitous.\u201d He talks about how education evolved over time and his predictions for where it will go in the future.\nI believe this book discusses an idea whose time has come. While I was reading it, the University where I work started talking about many of the same topics I was reading. In fact, I went to a presentation where they talked about four major trends in Higher Education:\n1. New modes of learning \u2014 online learning options are not only increasing but becoming more and more what students want, need and expect.\n2. New degrees of value \u2014 Traditional four-year degrees are not as desirable as they once were. Students are wanting\u2014and needing\u2014more flexible, non-traditional credentials, such as nano-degrees and online certificates of completion.\n3. Change nature of work \u2014 We are moving away from the \u201cday job\u201d economy and more and more into the \u201cgig\u201d economy. Workers have greater flexibly while losing job security.\n4. Decline public support \u2014 State funding is declining and the public is not likely to pick up the tab. New sources or even models of revenue need to be developed.\nAll of these concepts and more are discussed in Iny\u2019s book, Leveraged Learning.\nWhat I liked about Leveraged Learning\nI will admit that I have a crush on this book. As I read it my intellect was stimulated, my imagination was engaged and I spoke to anyone who would listen to me about the concepts I was learning. Iny\u2019s writing style is both conversational and authoritative. I not only felt like I was at a table discussing the topic with him, but also that he really knew what he was talking about. He had done his research and didn\u2019t completely rely on his personal experience.\nAt the end of each chapter, the author provides a series of questions to help the reader fully integrate with the information provided in that chapter. These would make great conversation starters if a book club read this book.\nI also liked the list of further reading provided at the end of each chapter. I definitely added some of his suggestions to my Amazon Wish List!\nWhat I didn\u2019t like about Leveraged Learning\nThroughout the book, I felt there was an underlying promise that the book would provide advice to course creators on how to use the ideas it shared and practically apply them in the real world. In fact, one chapter is called \u201cDesigning Great Courses.\u201d However, I don\u2019t think this promise was fully realized. I finished the book still wondering how I could help my students gain more value from courses I create.\nIf there is a second edition of this book, I would love to see one chapter that provided practical advice to help readers apply what they learned to the real world. I don\u2019t think the learning self-assessment at the end of the chapters went far enough. It is one thing to be \u201cone with the theory,\u201d which these assessments help readers become. And it is entirely another thing to apply that theory in the real world.\nI think this book is a must-read for anyone involved in or interested in education. How we learn is changing with the advance in technology. What we need to learn is changing with the evolution of business. Although this book may not answer all the questions it raises, I feel that it is import to raise them so that we can start exploring possible solutions together.",

Steelhead are federally listed as threatened. The \u201cWhat We Need\u201d population abundance targets shown above for spring run Chinook salmon and steelhead represent just one of several criteria that the National Marine Fisheries Service considers when determining whether a species should be removed from the Federal List of Endangered and Threatened Wildlife and Plants (50 CFR 223.102). Recovering any of the species entails meeting criteria for abundance, productivity, diversity, and spatial structure across multiple watersheds, as well as criteria for alleviating threats (NMFS, 2014). The population abundance target (i.e., 833) is not specific to Feather River; it is a generic, minimum recovery level that applies across the Central Valley Recovery Domain (NMFS, 2014). In-River returns should be primarily, if not exclusively, made up of natural-origin fish in order to support a delisting decision (Lindley et al. 2007).",

        "raw_content": "Cut DHS budget, completely.\nCut DHS budget, in total.\nIs DHS even necessary?\n(This article, and the others like it, was written as part of the Shut Down Unneeded Bureaucracy effort to cut government spending.)\nRegarding US Dept of Homeland Security (DHS) \u2013\nThis giant bureaucracy was born in the heat of the aftermath of the sneak attack by Islam on America on September 11, 2001. In retrospect, it may be seen that any time an emergency occurs the first thing that comes into the minds of all big-government aficionados is a new bureaucracy of some kind. As if there were nothing already in place that could cover the new contingencies in question. This is the knee-jerk reactive notion that insists on solving all new big problems with big government growth and another migration of power from the people to the government. It is always supported by the similar non-thinking reaction that says do something, anything, even if it\u2019s wrong; just do it, and do it quickly!\nNone of us anticipated or predicted foreign Moslems sneaking into America under false pretenses, learning to fly airliners, high-jacking loaded American passenger planes and then suicidally flying them straight into American target buildings in order to kill and terrorize just as many of us as possible, injure our governing and defense capability and our economy as much as possible.\nGranted. We were all surprised.\nWe are not as likely to be so surprised again by any such horrors coming out of Islam. There was no need to create another behemoth bureaucracy when a newly awakened department of Defense, CIA and FBI were already in place, and all they needed to do was to come to terms with a completely new variety of national threat not previously anticipated.\nThe sneak attack of 09/11/01 was just a new tactic of an enemy whose long term strategy was and is to convert us, dominate us or destroy us. Our established armed forces and intelligence forces with the mission to defend America against naked aggression were already in existence. What is needed is for those existing forces to develop new counter tactics and look in new directions for new contingencies.\nTo understand Islam and recognize it as a mortal enemy of America and a mortal enemy of the rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, I strongly recommend that you read the Definition of Islam page, and the Refuting Mohammed page. All you have to do is look at the history of Islam, and look at it\u2019s own guiding scripture, the Koran.\nThe \u201cReligion of Peace\u201d nature of Islam is a smoke screen; Islam is only peaceful in any neighborhood until it gains in numbers or gains some military advantage. The intention of Islam toward the non-Islamic world is this: Convert, Submit, or die. That\u2019s it. Expansion into world domination is Islam\u2019s whole purpose for being.\nThat has been the nature of Islam from its birth. Convert, submit, or die; those are your only three options. That\u2019s why I say that the true definition of Islam is an ideology of military conquest masquerading as a religion. Again, you can see the details in the Refuting Mohammed page, and in the various articles linked in the right hand column of that page.\nPraise be to God, who revealed the Book, controls the clouds, defeats factionalism, and says in His Book: \"But when the forbidden months are past, then fight and slay the pagans wherever ye find them, seize them, beleaguer them, and lie in wait for them in every stratagem (of war)\"; and peace be upon our Prophet, Muhammad Bin-'Abdallah, who said: I have been sent with the sword between my hands to ensure that no one but God is worshipped, God who put my livelihood under the shadow of my spear and who inflicts humiliation and scorn on those who disobey my orders.\n\u2013 Osama Bin Laden, from 1998 Fatwa declaring holy war on the West and Israel.\n\u2013 Koran Sura 9:5.\n\u2013 Koran Sura 2:193.\n\u2013 Koran Sura 8:39.\nFight those who do not believe in Allah, nor in the latter day, nor do they prohibit what Allah and His Apostle have prohibited, nor follow the religion of truth, out of those who have been given the Book, until they pay the tax in acknowledgment of superiority and they are in a state of subjection.\nIn America as in any nation that believes in such taken-for-granted notions as citizen liberty and/or national sovereignty and/or national self-determination, a true definition of Islam should clearly state that Islam opposes liberty, and freedom of religion, and freedom of speech, and freedom of the press, as these things address Islam, Mohammed and the Koran. And a true definition of Islam should clearly state that Islam opposes and intends to eliminate such things as nations, borders and self-determination, of individuals and of nations. An honest definition of Islam would state that Islam, like Marxism, seeks to form a New World Order, and to rule the world with an iron fist. That is the core, central idea of Islam.\nThe ultimate goal of Islam is global domination. Islam is a theocracy; a radical combination of Church and State. The global goal of men like Osama Bin Laden is to bring the whole world into submission to the Islamic religion and Islamic law, or Sharia. That is the long term strategy; terrorism is merely a tactic.\nBe all that as it may, as a direct result of the attacks of 9/11/01 the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) was brought into being and given extraordinary governmental scope and power, which keeps changing, expanding and growing. Here is a snapshot picture of the organization, which, of course, cannot be accurate even from one day to the next, because of the continuing expansion and ongoing changes.\nI submit that this gigantic bureaucracy was poorly thought-out and brought into being in what may be described as a screaming emergency, that it has acted to the detriment rather than the enhancement of public safety, and that it has dramatically increased scope and power of government at the expense of power of the people. That should have been expected, because that is what bureaucracy always does. It actually recruits and/or trains and creates amoral sexual deviates and perverts to work as TSA inspectors feeling travelers up and photographing traveler\u2019s naked bodies. We spoke about our aversion to this activity in the Boycott the Airlines page. It is little more than another movement toward weakening or removing any remaining sense of public decency from the value system of the entire American culture.\nThe TSA, by formal order, does not apply and indeed studiously avoids offender profiling, forensic profiling or any other attempt to pre-identify the Moslem Jihadist enemies of America in the passenger screening process. Instead, by direct order, they begin with the incredibly stupid assumption that everyone \u2013 every American citizen \u2013 is in fact a Moslem Jihadist, and guilty until proven innocent. The only profiling done at all by the TSA is to exempt Moslems from the screening, despite the fact that all Jihadists are Moslems, without exception. This is a suicidal stupidity. It is a clear attempt to desensitize and to train the innocent and naive American citizenry and get them used to being herded and directed by petty bureaucrats, minor officials and administrators.\nIt is a movement from self-governance to government by administration. Herding, in other words. Becoming sheep.\nThe citizen is supposed to be the sovereign here, and the government is supposed to be the servant of the people. But, growing and expanding government power in general, and growing and expanding bureaucracy in particular, always, always acts to migrate governing power from the people to the government.\nAnd, Marxism always, always seeks to centralize power so that all of that centralized power eventually may be easier to be ceased by someone ruthless enough to cease it. I submit that the Democrat Party, like the SLIMC, is dominated by Marxist philosophy, and that the establishment Republican Party is certainly not free of it. Whether these officials and big-time journalists are merely some level of useful idiot Marxists or actual revolutionary conspirators is not as important as the fact that they will always act together to grow the government at the slightest excuse, and to always show the emergency government growth action in the best possible public light. Government knows best.\nCut the whole damned department. We already had resources in place to handle the Jihadist threat; all that was needed was, primarily, a redirection of attention and some minor reorganizations, such as beefing up the Coast Guard, beefing up military police training in the other branches of the military, and the use of profiling as is done in Israel. Any existing legislated laws prohibiting profiling must be modified or repealed. To not pay special attention to Moslems when trying to identify Moslem Jihadists is just plain stupid.\nHow to do it; that is the question.\nPurging the System. I submit that there is nothing in Marxism and nothing in Islam that is compatible with and not antagonistic to America\u2019s Declaration of Independence and the American Constitution. Marxism and Islam are open, sworn enemies of the very idea of America, and they have been so since birth. In Islam\u2019s case, Islam opposed America long before America even existed. In Marxism\u2019s case, Marxism opposed America since Marxism gained popular recognition in 1848.\nFirst, we must purify the existing system of Marxists and Moslems who cannot truthfully take any oath of office that involves protecting and defending the Constitution of the United States, because their ideology or their religion directly opposes the Constitution of the United States, and in fact calls for it\u2019s destruction. That is to say that all Marxists and all Moslems must be recognized as enemies of the Constitution of the United States. Any member of the American armed forces, any member of any police organization, any elected or appointed office holder who had to take an oath to protect the Constitution, swore a false oath of office if he is a Marxist or a Moslem.\nAll you have to do to see that this is true is read Marx\u2019s greatest work, the Communist Manifesto, to see that Marxism stands opposed to everything America stands for. All you have to do is read Islam\u2019s holy book, the Koran, to see that Islam stands opposed to everything America stands for. Any Marxist, and any Moslem, who ever took an American oath of office took it falsely. Both Marxism and Islam intend the destruction of America as founded and constituted. That is the nature of Marxism and that is the nature of Islam. No Marxist and no Moslem should hold any security clearance, or any position in elected office, or be a member of the American armed forces, or a member of any American police or security organization. This is especially true of the Secret Service, the FBI and the CIA.\nCurrent TSA rules notwithstanding, I submit that a much greater threat is posed to American national existence by American sitting government officials than by the American populace at large.\nReorganizing. First, regarding \u201cscreening\u201d air travelers, controlling borders and stopping illegal entry by potential enemies of America:\nIt seems logical that the organization that should be best able to take command of American \u201chomeland\u201d security is the American Coast Guard. The Coast Guard is the only American armed force that has, in equal parts, war fighting capability and police capability. They already act in a police role in American waters; they already have the police training required to interact with American citizens and with foreigners in law enforcement and legal issues.\nThe Coast Guard should be elevated to the exact same level and status as the Army, the Navy and the Air Force. The Border Patrol and all immigration functions should be brought under the control of the Coast Guard. Migration should remain under State. Trained Coast Guardsmen should replace the TSA people in American airports. Their ranks could be supplemented by trained military police from the other military branches after supplemental training in civilian police work. Heavy use of forensic profiling as is done in Israel should replace pat-downs and x-rays. Extraordinary searching should be restricted to highly suspicious individuals who stand out in some way.\nA major part of the new mission would be to absolutely secure our borders, so that the only way foreigners may enter will be by the normal legal means. Thousands of people enter that way every single day. Illegal entry should become an extremely difficult and an extremely risky and dangerous venture.\nSecond, regarding seeking out the enemies of America, both in America and elsewhere:\nI have always felt that the FBI and the CIA should be combined in one force with one director, with the same mission. The Secret Service should be moved back to Treasury where it belongs. Besides their current mission, the combined CIA/FBI should be tasked with using overt and covert methods to identify and root out enemies of America both in America and elsewhere. That includes criminals, members of criminal organizations, foreign enemies of America, and any person who intends to do harm to America or her citizens. The word \u201ccriminal\u201d includes illegal aliens, who are indeed criminals by dint of having violated our laws.\nThe difficulty, at first, will involve rooting out enemies from America from within the ranks of the CIA/FBI itself. Then, it would have the not insignificant task of rooting out Marxists and Moslems from high political office and the American armed forces.\nThere has always been a question in my mind why such organizations as the BATF, DEA and others exist at all. We cannot wage war on \u201cdrugs\u201d except here in the USA. A war on drugs makes about as much sense as no child left behind, or a war on climate change, or a war on poverty, all of which is nonsense. Man cannot successfully legislate the local weather, let alone the global climate, nor can man simply legislate poverty away. These organizations need to be eliminated entirely; but that will be addressed in future pages, like this one, which will be included in the right-column links of the Shut Down Unneeded Bureaucracy webpage. Any valuable human or forensic resources in these police organizations could be incorporated into the FBI/CIA before shutting the organizations down completely.\nAll the rest of DHS should be eliminated and cut from the budget. (Of course, we don\u2019t really have a budget; we have not had a real budget since Comrade Obama (peace be upon him) took office.)\nOnce upon a time there was a senator named Joe McCarthy, and he held the McCarthy hearings, in which he charged that hundreds of Communists had infiltrated the highest levels of the American government. He famously waved, before the cameras, stacks of papers touted to be lists of revolutionaries and \u201csympathizers\u201d in government, in academia, in education, in the news media and in major, big-league entertainment.\nBut, the government \u2013 with the Democrat Party in the lead \u2013 , the print and broadcast news media, leading academics and major, big-league entertainment, all united against him, and they made him look like a fool. They destroyed him; they shut him down and made him a laughing stock all over America, and in the larger world. \u201cMcCarthyism\u201d became a term for a silly conspiratorial fool. It remains so today.\nBut then, the Soviet Union came crashing down. Some time after that, the Soviet archives were released, and the formerly secret files revealed \u2013 guess what \u2013 that senator Joe McCarthy was right, on all counts.\nAnd the silence of the SLIMC was deafening.\nI\u2019ll bet you didn\u2019t know that.\nThat was then; this is now, and here we are. Look around.\nWe have recommended that we should Outlaw Marxism in America. If you think that would somehow be un-Constitutional, I invite you to examine the well-known closing words of the most famous work of Karl Marx, which would be the Communist Manifesto, as quoted below:\nFinally, they labor everywhere for the union and agreement of the democratic parties of all countries.\nThe Communists disdain to conceal their views and aims. They openly declare that their ends can be attained only by the forcible overthrow of all existing social conditions. Let the ruling classes tremble at a communist revolution. The workers have nothing to lose but their chains. They have a world to win.\nI submit that there is no part of that, or the rest of the Manifesto, or anything else Marx wrote, that is in any way compatible with and not antagonistic of the American Declaration of Independence, the American Constitution and the very foundational ideas of America. To be a Marxist is to be an anti-American. Everything in Marxism is opposed to the very existence of America. Karl Marx was no great social thinker, and he was no economist; he was a bloody revolutionary. Marxism is no grand philosophy, no economic theory and no mere ideology among the many; Marxism is a Strategy for world revolution masquerading as an ideology of fairness and equality. To see the nature of the gigantic fraud Marx perpetrated on the \u201cenlightened\u201d elites of Western Civilization, refer to the Refuting Marx page.\nWe have recommended that we should Outlaw Islam in America. If you think that would somehow be un-Constitutional, I invite you to examine the quoted words of Osama Bin Laden and the Koranic verses that back them up, as quoted earlier in this article.\nI submit that Islam is not merely a religion like other religions; rather, it is an aggressive, belligerent and invasive theocracy whose ultimate goal is to subjugate and dominate the entire world. The Koran proves it. There is nothing Osama Bin Laden did that was not in complete accordance with Islamic theology, Islamic ideology and Islamic law. It is not the active Jihadists, but the peaceful Moslems, who are the poorest followers of the Islam Way; they have not yet learned that the Koran calls them to Jihad. Islam is a strategy of conquest and world domination masquerading as a religion of peace. It is not possible to be a good Moslem and not be an anti-American. Islam and America are absolutely incompatible; the core ideas of America are antithetical to Islam. To see the true nature of the gigantic fraud Mohammed perpetrated on Eastern Civilization, refer to the Refuting Mohammed page.\nSince the Teddy Roosevelt administration, at least, we have been steadily, inexorably moving away from our American foundational principles and into Marxism. Now, we have hit the point where we have an actual Marxist Revolutionary in the oval office. This is no mere Progressive, or Liberal, or even extreme Leftie. This is the real deal; if you doubt that, then permit me to refer you to the Refuting Obama page. The right-column contains links to all the evidences. Comrade Obama (peace be upon him) is a died-in-the-wool Marxist with a soft spot for islam.\nNote well that Marxism and Islam are uniting in revolutions around the world at this very moment. It is not the first time in history that this has happened.\nPray that nothing really big happens between now and November 2012. Both Marxism and Islam make their biggest advances through crisis; both Marxism and Islam provoke and promote crisis, which provides opportunity for radical change or even take-over.\nThe real battle here is between good and evil. Neutrality invites defeat.\nThe Original Article may be found at:\nhttp://www.Thinking-Catholic-Strategic-Center.com/Cut-DHS.html\nCut DHS.",

        "raw_content": "November 9, 2009, Albany Times Union: Is Marcellus Shale too hot to handle? State officials unsure of how to handle radioactive\nIs Marcellus Shale too hot to handle?\nState officials unsure of how to handle radioactive wastewater created by drilling process\nlink to complete article is here: http://www.timesunion.com/AspStories/storyprint.asp?StoryID=863369\nFirst published: Monday, November 9, 2009\nAs New York gears up for gas drilling in the Marcellus Shale, state officials have made a potentially troubling discovery about the wastewater created by the process: It's radioactive. And they have yet to say how they'll deal with it...\nThe information comes from New York's Department of Environmental Conservation, which analyzed 13 samples of wastewater brought thousands of feet to the surface from drilling and found that they contain levels of radium-226, a derivative of uranium, as high as 267 times the limit safe for discharge into the environment and thousands of times the limit safe for people to drink.\nThe findings, if backed up with more tests, have several implications: The energy industry would likely face stiffer regulations and greater expenses, and have more trouble finding treatment plants to accept its waste -- if any would at all. And the state would have to sort out how its laws for radioactive waste might apply to drilling and how the waste could affect water supplies and the environment.\nWhat is less clear is how the wastewater may affect the health of New Yorkers, since the danger depends on how much radiation people are exposed to, and there is still disagreement over the effects of low-level doses on people.\nThe DEC has yet to address any of these questions. But New York's Health Department raised concerns about the water samples in a confidential letter to the DEC in July.\n\"Handling and disposal of this wastewater could be a public health concern,\" DOH officials said in the letter, which was obtained by ProPublica. \"The issues raised are not trivial, but are also not insurmountable.\"\nThe letter warned that the state may have difficulty disposing of the drilling waste, that thorough testing will be needed at water treatment plants, and that workers may need to be monitored for radiation much as they might be at nuclear facilities.\nHealth Department officials declined to comment on the letter. The DEC sent an e-mail response to questions stating that \"concentrations are generally not a problem for water discharges, or in solid waste streams\" in New York state. But the agency did not directly address the radioactivity levels, which were disclosed in the appendices of the agency's environmental review of gas drilling in the Marcellus Shale, released Sept. 30.\nThe Marcellus Shale is an underground rock formation that extends into southern New York and contains vast amounts of natural gas.\nWhat scientists call naturally occurring radioactive materials -- known by the acronym NORM -- are common in oil and gas drilling waste, and especially in brine, the dirty water that has been soaking in the shale for centuries. Radium, a potent carcinogen, is among the most dangerous of these metals because it gives off radon gas and takes 1,600 years to decay. The tests taken so far suggest the amount of radioactive material measured in New York is far higher than in many other places.\nRecognizing this, the environmental review said radioactive waste licensing and special disposal processes may be required, but said more study is needed before the DEC can lay out precise plans to deal with the waste.\nThe review said the DEC could not calculate how much radioactivity people may be exposed to, even though such calculations are routinely completed by scientists studying radiation exposure and should be very easy to do, according to Charley Yu, who runs a national dose modeling program for the U.S. Department of Energy.\nYet the review concluded radiation levels were very low and the wastewater does not present a risk to workers. DEC officials declined to explain their reasoning for this conclusion.\nThe DEC did answer questions about whether the additional sampling has begun and whether the state would allow drilling before the radioactivity issues are resolved.\n\"I don't believe anyone has taken a look, seriously, at what the unintended consequences are to dealing with these kinds of materials,\" said Theodore Adams, a radiation remediation and water treatment consultant with 30 years of experience. \"It's got to go somewhere. It's not going to just go away.\"\nThe problem is particularly acute in New York because most other states that produce radioactive waste from drilling inject that waste back underground. But injection disposal wells are uncommon here. The EPA says none are licensed to receive radioactive waste or Marcellus Shale wastewater. Instead, most drilling wastewater is treated by municipal or industrial water treatment plants and discharged back into public waterways.\nBut it is not clear which treatment plants, if any in New York, are capable of handling such material. Asked for names of plants capable of removing the radioactive materials, DEC spokesman Yancey Roy said \"there are currently no facilities specifically designated for treating them.\" The state would review disposal plans submitted by drilling companies, but has not yet received any, he said. \"We do not know what treatment options are being considered or how effective NORM removal will be.\"\nDEC officials have emphasized that the environmental review proposes testing all wastewater for radioactivity before it is allowed to leave the well site and that the volumes of brine water, which contain most of the radioactivity detected, would be far less than the volumes of fluid from hydraulic fracturing that are removed from the well.\nSeveral plant managers in Syracuse and Endicott said they could not take the waste or were not familiar with the state's regulations.\nSome plants in Pennsylvania can accept very low concentrations of radioactive metals, according to Rick Kessy, operations manager at Fortuna Energy, which produced five of the radioactive water samples in New York. But if a solution isn't found to take the higher concentrations, it could be crippling, he said.\n\"If we did not have a viable option for it, our operations would just shut down,\" Kessy said. \"There is no other option.\"\nFiltering the water is just one of several problems. Plants that can filter out the radioactive materials are left with a concentrated sludge that has substantially higher radioactivity than the wastewater. Sludge can also collect inside the pipes at well sites, in waste pits and in holding tanks.\nFederal laws don't directly address naturally occurring radioactivity, and the oil and gas industry is exempt from federal laws dictating handling of toxic waste, leaving the burden on New York state. New York has laws governing radioactive materials, but the state's drilling plans don't specify when they would apply.\nExperts who reviewed the concentrations of radioactive metals found in New York's wastewater said leftover sludge is likely to exceed legal limits for hazardous waste and would need to be shipped to Idaho or Washington, to some of the only landfills in the country permitted to accept it.\nThe same may be required of some of the equipment used in drilling, which can eventually emit much higher levels of radiation than the water itself.\nAccording to Fortuna's Kessy, that's an acceptable cost of doing business. \"We'll be willing, of course, to fund the necessary disposal means,\" he said.\nProPublica's Sabrina Shankman contributed to this article.",

        "title": "PG&E bankruptcy: California leaders face tough choices for nation's biggest utility - CBS News",
        "raw_content": "PG&E bankruptcy: California's tough choices for nation's biggest utility\nClimate change's effect on utility companies\nSacramento, Calif. - The announcement by the nation's largest utility that it's filing for bankruptcy puts Pacific Gas & Electric Co.'s problems squarely in the hands of Gov. Gavin Newsom and state lawmakers, who now must try to keep ratepayer costs down, ensure wildfire victims get the money they're owed and rethink California's energy picture in the face of climate change.\n\"This issue is all about three fundamental things: It is about safety, it's about reliability and it's about affordability,\" Newsom told reporters Monday afternoon after spending the day in and out of meetings with lawmakers about the pending bankruptcy.\nEarlier in the day, PG&E announced it will file for Chapter 11 bankruptcy as it faces at least $30 billion in potential damages from lawsuits over catastrophic California wildfires in 2017 and 2018 that killed scores of people and destroyed thousands of homes. The announcement kicked off a 15-day window before the official filing. Newsom said he would like to stave off the bankruptcy but it may not be possible.\n\"We'd like to see it avoided, but we're not naive,\" he said. \"I respect the taxpayer, I respect the ratepayer and I'm absolutely cognizant of those that lost their homes.\"\nThe filing wouldn't make the lawsuits disappear. It would result in all wildfire claims being consolidated into a single proceeding before a bankruptcy judge, not a jury. That could shield the company from excessive jury verdicts and buy time by putting a hold on the claims.\n\"The chances of victims getting what they would've gotten without a bankruptcy are not good,\" said state Sen. Bill Dodd, a Napa Democrat.\nHow much and what the state can do remains to be seen. Lawmakers last year tried to prevent a threatened PG&E bankruptcy resulting from the 2017 fires by letting the utility pass on some of its costs to ratepayers, a move some critics dubbed a \"bailout\" for the utility. Democratic Assemblyman Chris Holden had considering introducing a similar bill that would pass on the costs of 2018 fires, but on Monday he said he has backed off that idea.\n\"Clearly PG&E has made a decision that the legislative arena is not where they feel they're going to get the kind of results that will go far enough,\" he said, adding that the decisions about PG&E's future now appear to be in the hands of bankruptcy court.\nIn a Tuesday morning note, Height Securities noted the difficulty of finding a legislative fix for PG&E's complex problems. \"As of today,\" it wrote, \"we do not see a clear path to action that would avoid a bankruptcy filing.\"\nClimate change makes matters worse\nPG&E serves about 40 percent of California's utility customers, Newsom said, making it the nation's largest utility. It operates in three-quarters of California's land most vulnerable to wildfires, Newsom said. While PG&E's equipment has been named the cause of multiple recent fires, experts blame climate change for extending California's wildfire season and making blazes more deadly and destructive.\nState officials are investigating whether the utility's equipment sparked the deadliest, most destructive wildfire in California history, a November blaze that killed at least 86 people and burned down 15,000 homes.\nNewsom and legislative leaders carefully avoided laying out potential solutions in the hours after the bankruptcy announcement while stressing the importance of ensuring wildfire victims get the money they are owed. But no one has yet figured out the future of California energy policy as the state faces increasing threats -- and more wildfires -- as it copes with climate change.\nDemocratic Sen. Jerry Hill said a PG&E bankruptcy may turn out to be a good thing. Hill represents San Bruno in the San Francisco Bay Area, where a PG&E natural gas pipeline exploded in 2010 and killed eight people.\n\"This company has been dishonest, it has prioritized profits way over safety and there has been no effort on their part to change that,\" he said. \"I don't believe it will change unless there is some sort of restructure.\"\n\"Only viable option\"\nNewsom agreed PG&E hasn't been a \"trusted actor\" in the past, but he said the state must work collaboratively with the utility. He noted that a portion of its leadership is gone, including Chief Executive Geisha Williams, who resigned on Sunday with a $2.5 million severance package.\nChapter 11 reorganization represents \"the only viable option to address the company's responsibilities to its stakeholders,\" Richard Kelly, chairman of PG&E's board of directors, said in a statement.\n\"The Chapter 11 process allows us to work with these many constituents in one court-supervised forum to comprehensively address our potential liabilities and to implement appropriate changes.\"\nRegardless of the solution, the process is likely to be long: 18 years after the company's last bankruptcy filing, PG&E customers still see a small fee on their monthly bills to pay for it, labeled the \"energy cost recovery amount.\"\nThe Natural Resources Defense Council warned that bankruptcy could threaten billions in funding for PG&E's clean energy initiatives, which are key to California's environmental goals. PG&E is the state's largest investor in energy efficiency and electric vehicle infrastructure, said the NRDC's Ralph Cavanagh.\nThe bankruptcy is different from PG&E's bankruptcy in 2001, when California faced an energy crisis that caused power outages. Newsom said the state has an \"abundance\" of energy and power shutoffs are not imminent.",

        "title": "Which Chiropractic Styles Optimize Patient Satisfaction? - Chiropractic News by ChiroNexus",
        "raw_content": "Research has shown that patients with back pain rate chiropractic care higher than other medical care for satisfaction with their treatment. While these findings are encouraging, many chiropractors have been left wondering what they can do to make their patients even happier, to stand out among other chiropractors.\nA recent study analyzed patient surveys to compare the success of chiropractic styles and determine how satisfied patients were considering factors such as appointment length, frequency, focus of care, and payment methods.\nResearchers conducted an anonymous cross-sectional questionnaire. These surveys were distributed at five different chiropractic clinics across the UK. The questions in the survey were designed to encourage patients to participate and could be done on-site or off-site.\nPatients were asked demographic information, in addition to details about their treatment, such as the frequency, number, and lengths of appointments. The questionnaire also determined the efficacy of different styles for relieving pain and improving the patients\u2019 quality of life. Lastly, patients provided information about program type (either wellness maintenance or symptom reduction) and payment methods (pay-as-go or prepayment plans).\nOf the 250 surveys distributed, around 75% were completed and returned. A significantly higher portion of these patients were female and about 37% of respondents were over age 60. The biggest reason for chiropractic care among participants was found to be back pain.\nThe majority of the patients were on a cycle of four weekly treatments. Less than 3% visited their chiropractor two or more times per week.\nThe length of time for chiropractic treatment was almost evenly split among the patient surveys. Appointments that were 6-10 minutes was the average for 35% of patients; 44% had appointments between 11 and 20 minutes; 34% reported appointments usually more than 30 minutes.\nAll the chiropractic clinics in the survey were deemed successful based on pain improvement and high patient quality of life.\nOn a 0-10 scale, about 50% of respondents were extremely satisfied with their treatment and gave the maximum score of 10. Another 25% of patients rated 9-10. The authors of the study concluded that about 75% of patients were satisfied with their chiropractic treatments.\nIn weighing patient satisfaction with different stylistic factors, the researchers found that in general, the most satisfaction came from longer, less frequent appointments. For the best effect on pain scores, they found that appointments should be a minimum of 10 minutes; to maximize patient satisfaction and quality of life, this time should increase to about 20 minutes. They found that there is little justification for appointments more than 30 minutes in length.\nClinics with a focus on wellness care, requiring patients\u2019 more frequent visits, did not score as highly as those designed to address symptoms and requiring less frequent care sessions. Payment plans had little impact on patient satisfaction.\nThe study results implied that to maximize patient satisfaction, more emphasis should be placed on patient choice in determining treatment frequency.\nMace R, Cunliffe C, Hunnisett A.

        "title": "The Central Point: What Are You Looking For?",
        "raw_content": "Sermon Focus: Testimony. Identification. Discipleship. The three words captures the essence of the action in this text. John the Baptist, having just given his testimony regarding Jesus as the Anointed One, then identifies him as the very \u201clamb of God\u201d to two of John\u2019s disciples. Having heard John\u2019s pronouncement (and directions?), they follow Jesus. And Jesus, having seen the two former-disciples of John, asks the paramount question of the text: \u201cWhat are you looking for?\u201d The question is answered with another question, \u201cRabbi, where are you staying?\u201d And Jesus answers, in almost cryptic fashion, \u201cCome and you will see.\u201d\nSermon Function: To teach listeners that discipleship and evangelist (\u201ccome and see\u201d) to hand in hand, and that discipleship isn\u2019t something you can figure out entirely on your own. You just have to obey the injunction, \u201ccome and see.\u201d\nLast week, at the conclusion of the sermon, I invited all those present to participate in a corporate reaffirmation of baptism. The theme for this week is the exploration of what it means for us to say that we are baptized. What is the nature of our baptismal faith, our covenant, our calling, in Jesus Christ? What is one of the patterns by which Jesus is known, followed, and then shared with others? These are some of the big questions that arise from the reading today from the Gospel of John.\n[Read Scripture - John 1:29-42]\nAs a reminder, we\u2019re in the midst of the first of two periods of Ordinary Time. The first period runs from Epiphany, which we have just observed, through the first Sunday of Lent, the Great 40 Days preceding Easter, which is earlier this year than it has been in 32 years. The next period of Ordinary Time runs from the Sunday after Pentecost all the way through to our next Advent. Lent is historically the great time of preparation for Baptism, which would commonly occur during the Easter vigil in the wee hours the night prior to Easter morning. It is my hope that those of you present who are not baptized might prayerfully consider this step of faith in Jesus Christ. And for those of you who are baptized, I hope these weeks and the weeks of Lent instill within you a renewed sense of your baptismal obligations and their associated Joy.\nTestimony. Identification. Discipleship. These three words describe the three-fold movement in today\u2019s scripture passage, a passage filled with interesting images that highlight the importance of faith and our baptismal vocation. At the same time, the gospel gives us a good indication of what it means to be obedient to the Anointed One of God, Jesus. Today, I\u2019m going to address each one of these movements and how, together, the form the foundation of our baptismal covenant.\nLet\u2019s talk about testimony.\nTestimony is a word that, in our culture, is most often associated with the courtroom. The courtroom testimony theme is actually a big part of the Old Testament, and it should come as no surprise to us that this theme extends into the New Testament as well. And in fact, that is what is likely the connotation here in our gospel reading.\nJohn quotes John the Baptizer as saying \u201cHere is the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world\u201d (John 1:29). This is a bold opening statement. The term \u201cLamb of God\u201d seems to a loaded one \u2013 the early readers of the gospel would have likely thought of the Passover Lamb that was sacrificed for the sins of the people each year during the annual Jewish festival of Atonement known as Yom Kippur. John says that he baptized with water so that \u201che,\u201d the one who ranks ahead of him, might be revealed to Israel. At first, John didn\u2019t recognize him, but then he received a clear message: \u201cHe on whom you see the Sprit descend and remain is the one who baptizes with the Holy Spirit\u201d (John 1:33). Jesus was revealed as the one anointed by the Spirit when John baptized him with water. John concludes by saying, \u201cAnd I myself have seen and have testified that this is the Son of God\u201d (John 1:34 NRSV).\nTestimony is the starting place for evangelism. Testimony comes to us in a variety of forms. It is given to us in the way commonly seen in courtrooms, but it\u2019s also given in stories we tell each other, the stories we share from Holy Scripture, and the personal stories we share while together in worship and fellowship. In testimony, we commit ourselves to telling the truth. Telling the truth about who God is, and how we have experienced his presence in our lives. Truth-telling is at the heart of evangelism, because we open our hearts to others to let them know about the wonderful things that God has promised in his Son Jesus. We heard such a testimony this past Sunday. And I want you all to know that you, too, are welcome to share your testimony to the people of God. Just see me to make arrangements. Such testimony is a wonderful offering to God of a portion of that bounteous grace he has given to us.\nBaptism itself is testimony. And as those who have been claimed by God in our baptisms, we become human vessels of God\u2019s good news in Jesus Christ. The first component of our baptismal vocation, then, is testimony, both given and received.\nThe next part of our three-pronged view of our baptismal vocation is identification.\nOne of the reasons we have the sacrament of baptism is that it marks us, it visibly identifies us, as recipients of God\u2019s amazing grace and members of his body, the Church. Baptism has another function, too. Through baptism, we are given gift that helps us to see Christ, because it is Christ himself who instituted the sacrament, and it is Jesus himself who baptizes us with His Spirit.\nSo our baptisms are kind of like an ID of sorts, but with along with that ID is an associated responsibility of our vocation, to point out Christ has the Lamb of God, just as John the Baptist does in our text today. We testify to the wonderful things that God has done for us, but then we extend that testimony to the next step: Who is the one that is the fullest revelation of God\u2019s grace and love? The answer is Jesus Christ. And we are charged to spread this terrific news. By ourselves, we are unable to achieve any sort of redemption, but through Christ, we not only have the assurance of pardon for all of our sins, but the promise of being with him in resurrection life when he returns to renew all of creation.\nOur baptismal vocation, our calling, as three parts: Testimony, identification, and discipleship.\nDiscipleship is the trickiest part of our vocation, but it\u2019s at the very heart of Jesus\u2019 call to his disciples.\nLet\u2019s look at our text again.\nJohn is with two of his disciples, and then sees Jesus walking by. Having given his testimony that Jesus is the Anointed One, he then exclaims to his disciples the identification of Jesus as the very Lamb of God. The gospel then reads, \u201cThe two disciples heard him say this, and they followed Jesus\u201d (John 1:37 NRSV). Without any other prompting other than John\u2019s declaration, the two cease to be disciples of John and begin following Jesus. One can imagine the two wondering what exactly it was they were doing, leaving the known quantity John for the largely unknown quantity named Jesus. And Jesus turned around and saw the two following. The Greek verb here translated as \u201csaw\u201d is one of the typical verbs describing the act of seeing. But the gospel here uses the word \u03b8\u03b5\u1f71\u03bf\u03bc\u03b1\u03b9, which a couple of particular meanings. First, the word describes the action of seeing, but with the implication that what is being observed is something unusual. Might it have seemed a bit unusual for the two disciples of John to suddenly change course and follow Jesus? Yes, one could imagine such a response. The second nuance associated with this verb is \u201cto go see a person on the basis of friendship and with helpful intent.\u201d I like that. Jesus looks at them on the basis of friendship and helpful intent. And the two disciples, one of them Andrew, the other unnamed, are asked by Jesus the same exact question most of us ask we encounter someone who doesn\u2019t seem to know where they are going. That is, they appear lost, and unsure of the way. Perhaps they were getting along okay, but now they\u2019ve taken a wrong turn, and are wandering in the wilderness. I remember the first time my family traveled through the famed desert known as Death Valley National Park. I was freaked out just by the name. \u201cWe\u2019re going through Death Valley? Isn\u2019t there another way?\u201d I remember that one of my chief worries about the trip was that somehow we would get lost, and then we would become, tragically, another reason why this particular valley was called \u201cDeath Valley.\u201d The fear of getting lost, having been unleashed by one prophet, John, will we now hitch ourselves to this new guy, Jesus?\nSo, perhaps our two disciples appear lost. And now they are being asked what they are looking for. You can imagine that they might have been unprepared for the question. When they reply to Jesus\u2019 question with their own question, \u201cRabbi \u2026 where are you staying?\u201d it is almost as if they are hedging for time, time to consider what they really might be looking for. But, as it turns out, the place where Jesus is staying, where he abides, is where they need to be. \u201cCome and see,\u201d answers Jesus. And then they came \u201cand saw where he was staying.\u201d And then they \u201cremained,\u201d they \u201cstayed\u201d with him that day. The place where they are staying isn\u2019t identified geographically for us. Instead, we learn simply that the disciples stayed where Jesus was staying. And that is the nature of discipleship. You don\u2019t necessary have a place to stay, but you do have a person to stay with.\nThis is also, for us, the concern of discipleship. Because discipleship, that third part of our baptismal vocation, may send us places we\u2019re not familiar with, to be with people we\u2019re not familiar with, to participate in worship and sacramental acts we\u2019re not familiar with, to sit in classes with people we\u2019re not familiar with, to take a new job we\u2019re not familiar with, etc. You get the idea. The place isn\u2019t as important as the person who is with us, regardless of where we physically may be, and regardless, even, of our own spiritual condition. Discipleship is about abiding, \u201cstaying\u201d with the one about whom we have heard testimony, and the one who as been identified to us as Jesus, the Son of God, and the one with whom we abide no matter where he takes us.\nSo there is a choice, then, that must be made. Perhaps you\u2019re starting to feel the necessity of that choice in your heart and soul. Perhaps you, too, are lost, and looking for someone who will abide with you no matter where you are right now in your life. You\u2019ve heard the testimony about this great God who has done great things for us. This advent and Epiphany, you have heard that the full revelation, the full identification, of God with us is Jesus the Christ, the Anointed one, the Lamb of God who takes away not just your sins, but the sins of the whole world. Maybe you\u2019ve been baptized, and are now trying to understand where God is leading you next in your own baptismal vocation? Is it to testify to what God has done? Is it to point out and identify Jesus as the savior of the world in some form of evangelism? Or is it do live out your discipleship by taking on a desperately needed mission of the church, which is sometimes an uncertain tasks that can take you to foreign places, but places where Jesus abides, where he is staying.\nOr perhaps you are not yet baptized, but through the Word and Sacraments of the church you are wondering what to do. If you happen to be such a person, I pray that by the power of the Holy Spirit you might be able to see Jesus turning, and looking at you with that look of friendship and helpful intent as He asks you the question, \u201cWhat are you looking for?\u201d And, like the two disciples, you may come up a bit short with the answer. But that\u2019s okay. If you\u2019re simply willing to take the next step to follow Him, just ask Him where he is staying.

Artists are always on a quest for meaning\nThey tell us that we may not have the imagination to see and think. They tell us secrets of our own hearts which most are not willing to confess. They keep us open to the spirit of newness and innovation in the quest for meaning in human history and life. Without, them life would be merely the dull routine of what is apparent but not real, what is accustomed but not novel, that is required but not daring. Art can be used to inspire, entertain educate and sell.\nLets begin with art, how do we define art? It is difficult because art is subjective and controversial, thus whether art can be defined has been often debated. Presently, there are two distinct modern, and conventional meanings behind art. Which primarily focuses on art\u2019s institutional features, and emphasizes on the way art changes over time, modern works that appear to break with all traditional art, and the properties that relate of artworks that depends on relations to art history, art genres and others.

Carl H. Lindner\u2019s tone of reassurance and list of things the advocates for a soccer stadium did not calm my apprehension. Nor did the one positive proposal: \u201cHowever the scale of this project, with $250 million in private donors already committed require us to pursue a model partnership citizens can feel good about as they evaluate the potential impact.\u201d\nThis vague statement sounds very much like a sneaky tax bite coming to us who are already paying plenty for the current stadia. In a time when the arts and other cultural programs are being cut back or eliminated in the public schools, and civic improvements, like infrastructure, are on hold, a new stadium seems like a frill. We need to fund projects that bring people together, educate us about the points of view of others, and promote good citizenship, as well as those that make us safer. Yes, I believe the promoted soccer stadium might not be, in Lindner\u2019s words, \u201cnearly 100 percent publicly funded,\u201d but that goal includes public commitment, which has to mean tax money. This prospect is especially unappealing to people who do not frequent sports events and are alarmed by a number of the profits that go into private hands in previous stadia. Lindner protests too much about how painless another stadium would be for the ordinary citizen. I\u2019m creeped out, not mollified.\nDorothy Weil, East Walnut Hills\nHistory shows need for Muslim vetting process\nThe fact that seems to go unnoticed with respect to the current wave of Islamic terrorism in Europe is that this historically is at least the third Muslim assault on Europe. In 711, Muslim forces from North Africa and the Near East successfully invaded most of present-day Spain and Portugal. Muslim rule prevailed in all or part of the Iberian Peninsula until 1492. In 1683 the Hapsburgs, the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth and the Holy Roman Empire repulsed the Muslim Ottoman Empire at Vienna, ending its expansion into Europe.\nAll of which brings to mind, in respect to a porous Europe with open doors to Muslim immigration, Edmund Burke\u2019s famous statement that \u201cThose who don\u2019t know history are destined to repeat it.\u201d Our friends in England, Germany and Holland may know history but certainly, have ignored it. We should be thankful that we have a president who advocates a vetting process for Muslim immigrants that is as effective as reasonably possible, to avoid further harm to Americans at the hands of Islamic terrorists.\nEdmund Adams, Columbia-Tusculum\nMarijuana is not a gateway to harder drug use\nMore Fairfield Councilman Bill Woeste\u2019s column regarding marijuana (\"Allowing Marijuana in any form would not be in Fairfield's best interest\") left me dumbfounded. He contends that, in light of the opioid epidemic, legalizing medical marijuana would send an inconsistent message to the general public. And then he proceeds to lecture against opiates. Although it is difficult to classify, marijuana is definitely not an opiate. It is foolhardy to lump marijuana in with heroin.\nI suppose he, therefore, must consider marijuana a \u201cgateway\u201d drug, one that will lead to use and abuse of harder drugs such as cocaine and heroin. If this is Woeste\u2019s argument, then he is completely off base. A Pew Research Center study found that nearly half (49 percent) of all Americans have tried pot. This same study revealed that 53 percent think pot should be legal and that 69 percent believe that alcohol is more harmful than marijuana. If pot is a gateway drug, then why do we not have a similar number of heroin addicts?\nThe bottom line is that marijuana does not lead to more harmful drugs. It is less harmful than alcohol and the reasons that it is illegal stem all the way back to the 1930s and the days of Harry Anslinger and the propagandist film \"Reefer Madness.\" I will add that I have no self-serving motive for its legalization. I have not smoked pot for decades and have no intention of doing so. I just think some sanity needs to be brought to this issue.\nSteve Osterfeld, Maineville\nComedienne Kathy Griffin needs to go away\nKathy Griffin deserves all the negative consequences she receives from her little publicity stunt. I am sure she was simply seeking attention to energize her diminishing career. Unfortunately for her, the majority of the rational public has responded in a way to cause her pain. Now she is playing the victim card and accuses President Trump and his family of trying to break her. Really? Is she serious or does she actually have a mental issue that needs to be investigated further? This little liberal snowflake needs to melt and go away like so many others.\nTrump abdicating to China on climate change\nBy pulling out of the Paris Climate Agreement, once again Donald Trump acts like the USA is his privately held company with no one to answer to. Climate change is real, science is not a hoax. Even if you are not yet convinced of the serious effects of global warming on Earth, are you really willing to take the chance that you wrong?\nEven if you are a gambler, leaving this global table is a recipe for disaster on its own from a leadership perspective. Our sovereignty is weakened and there are many other nations just waiting to take our place. I for one do not feel comfortable with China, a communist nation known for human rights violations wanting to take the lead.\nMelinda Lampke, Latonia\nRead or Share this story: https://www.cincinnati.com/story/opinion/letters/2017/06/07/history-shows-need-muslim-vetting-process/370712001/",

        "raw_content": "Another reason we use WordPress for our websites is so you can save yourself the trouble and expense of a separate mobile site.\nDon\u2019t get me wrong: the need for a mobile-friendly site is bigger than ever. In fact, it\u2019s overwhelming, since more than half your website\u2019s visitors are likely to be using a mobile device. (And if they\u2019re not, it will be because they can\u2019t.)\nThings have changed, though, and mobile users, along with everyone else, including tablet and laptop users, can now be served the same website, and it will be useable on every device.\nThis massive change has been brought about by something called a \u2018responsive\u2019 website \u2013 one that automatically adjusts to fit any screen size and ratio, so it\u2019s viewable and useable by everyone, whatever device they use. That adds enormously to your website\u2019s effectiveness by basically doubling its reach.\nThe easiest and cheapest way to build a responsive website, in our experience, is with WordPress. That means we can build in \u2018responsiveness\u2019 to any website we create for you. There are two main ways to achieve this: with a \u2018responsive theme\u2019, designed from the start to be responsive, or with a plug in that adds responsive behaviour to an existing theme. You don\u2019t need to worry about that now.\nWhat you do need to concern yourself with is if your current website, or one you\u2019re having built right now, isn\u2019t already responsive; you could be turning half your potential customers away from your business.\nJust think about that, and contact us if you\u2019d like some help in reaching that other fifty percent.\nPosted in: Getting Found Online, Mobile Marketing, Online Marketing, Websites",

        "title": "6 reasons to hire a marketing consultant | CIO",
        "raw_content": "By Larry Alton, star Advisor, Contributor, CIO | Feb 22, 2017 11:00 AM PT\nAre you skeptical when you hear the term \"consultant\"? You might be surprised to know how many entrepreneurs swear by their services.\nIt\u2019s easy to get prideful and believe you have everything under control. While pride may be part of the human condition, they also say it comes before the fall.\nIf you\u2019re in need of some help, it\u2019s time to consider hiring a consultant. The right one can bring a lot of value to the table.\nWhat\u2019s a marketing consultant?\nWhile many marketers claim to be \u201cconsultants\u201d at some point in their careers, most don\u2019t start out that way. Consultant work is usually the byproduct of a career spent working in a variety of different areas of marketing \u2014 typically with a great degree of success.\n\u201cMost marketing consultants have gained years of experience in previous marketing positions before entering the independent consulting field. While many years of experience are ideal for consultants, their previous work speaks louder than the amount of time they've spent in marketing,\u201d Marketing-Schools.org explains.\n\u201cCompanies seek out consultants with portfolios that show great success. Additionally, companies look to hire on consultants who have the educational backing needed to implement strategic marketing campaigns.\u201d\nWhen looking for a marketing consultant, you have a number of options. The two most common are to (a) use a specialized consulting firm, or (b) hire a freelance consultant. The latter option has become more popular recently, as there are now a number of online networks that make it easy for companies to search for a good fit.\nThe pay rate for a specialized marketing consultant varies with experience and past accolades. You can find an entry-level consultant for $50 or less an hour, whereas an experienced and in-demand consultant could cost thousands of dollars per day. It all depends on what you need.\nSix reasons to hire a consultant\nBut let\u2019s get down to the meat of the issue: How are companies supposed to know when they should hire a marketing consultant instead of adding another marketer to the payroll? What are the advantages and why are so many companies doing it?\n1. Outside perspective\nThe number one reason to hire a marketing consultant is for the outside perspective. You may have assembled the most talented team of marketers on the planet, but you\u2019ll always be blinded by some level of bias. A consultant, on the other hand, can come in and see things clearly without being affected by the issues that weigh you down.\n2. Specialized skill set\nMarketing consultants always have a general background and knowledge of how to handle a variety of different needs, but most have a specialized skill set to offer. For example, you\u2019ll find consultants who specialize in PPC campaign optimization or content marketing. When you work with these folks, you can quickly target a specific area without wasting time, money, or resources.\n3. Short-term commitment\nMany business leaders \u2014 perhaps you included \u2013 find themselves in a dilemma between hiring a new full-time marketing employee or bringing on a consultant. The biggest benefit of doing the latter is that a consultant is short-term. You can use their services for a period of time \u2014 perhaps to help with a seasonal campaign \u2014 and then cut ties without any questions. This saves money and prevents over-hiring.\nHiring a consultant is quick and easy. This allows you to spend less time focusing on logistics and more time taking action. As a result, you can address problems much faster and prevent small issues from becoming massive problems that will eventually require additional resources that you don\u2019t have.\n5. Evades office politics\n\u201cSometimes, when companies are working on a challenging problem or a controversial project, it can be hard for them to make decisions or take the necessary actions without getting wrapped up in emotions or politics,\u201d management consultant Alex Nuth explains. \u201cSo, they bring in consultants to provide an unbiased eye and do some of the dirty work for them.\u201d\nThis may seem like a minor issue, but it\u2019s actually a major problem for a lot of organizations. There are so many personal factors in play that nothing ever gets done. People are too worried about job security, future positions, relationships and other factors that they become paralyzed. A marketing consultant doesn\u2019t have to worry about any of these things and can get to work with minimal interference.\n6. Increases accountability\nIt\u2019s easy for business owners and CEOs to lose focus and veer off track. This is typically the result of a lack of accountability. When an individual finds himself in a position of power, accountability dissipates and the ability to act autonomously often clouds judgment and decision making. When a consultant is hired, accountability suddenly reenters the picture. The consultant will establish meetings, set goals and provide objectives that have to be satisfied by certain checkpoints. This is good for everyone involved.\nAt the end of the day, hiring a marketing consultant is all about finding the right fit. There are a lot of consultants in the industry, but you won\u2019t be successful if you can\u2019t find one that fits your needs. This means accounting for their area of expertise, budget, time frame, and other important aspects like location, current workload and more.\nOne particularly important issue to consider is the fee. Be realistic about how much you can spend. As consultant Leo Pound asks, can you afford not to hire the right person?\n\u201cYou can dig a deeper hole for your company either by hiring the wrong firm, or by not hiring the right firm,\u201d Pound points out. \u201cHiring the right firm could well be the best money you will ever invest in your business. Once you decide, ask about their fee structure. Will you be billed on a daily or hourly basis? Are there success or transaction fees you should be aware of? Will you be billed for one person or multiple consultants?\u201d\nOnce you determine that you need a consultant, immediately focus on details like these. The right fit will make all the difference in the world.",

        "title": "A Farewell to Mallrats - CityLab",
        "raw_content": "Flickr/Nicholas Eckhart\nA Farewell to Mallrats\nMalls around the country are closing, leaving teens with one fewer place to just be.\nWhen I was a young Girl Scout I attended a yearly event called Mall Madness, at which scores of local troops were locked in a mall overnight, until 3 or 4 a.m. It was the pinnacle of my 12-year-old social calendar, and it was madness, if fairly contained\u2014preteen girls given the run of the mall, running through Spencer's Gifts hopped up on Orange Julius and too many Cinnabons; making their first tentative forays into Hot Topic without fear of encountering the scary, be-pierced high schoolers that were its daytime denizens; buying CDs and T-shirts and keychains with slogans and other earnest, embarrassing expressions of burgeoning identity.\nThe mall experience is not quite so vibrant today. A few months ago I went to a mall in Maryland, because it has an Old Navy and an Olive Garden, and I wanted to buy pants and eat pasta alone. I achieved both of these goals (it was an excellent afternoon), but the mall itself\u2014the liminal space between stores, often peppered with kiosks\u2014was pretty desolate. I was often the only target for vendors aggressively hawking their wares, and when I did see other people roaming the halls, we looked at each other like travelers passing on a desolate road. I can't lie to you and say a tumbleweed rolled by, but it was pretty dusty in there.\nSince 2010, more than two dozen shopping malls have closed down.\nOther malls are faring even worse. On Wednesday, a judge in Oakland County, Michigan granted permission for the owner of Northland Center mall, outside of Detroit, to shut it down. (My mall was the Southland Center, just a 30-minute drive away.) The Northland Center mall has been open since 1954, making it, according to the Detroit Free Press, one of the United States' oldest suburban malls. But it's been losing around $250,000 a month, the Free Press reports, and is also losing some of its larger stores, like Target and Macy's.\nThe Northland Center is not alone\u2014since 2010, more than two dozen enclosed shopping malls have closed down, according to a statement sent to me by Green Street Advisors, a real-estate analytics company.\nOverall the landscape seems uneven. Higher-end malls are doing pretty well, sales-wise, according to Green Street's 2015 \"U.S. Mall Outlook\" report, while lower-end malls are less likely to see growth. The report attributes this to the widening \"bifurcation in income growth between high and low earners,\" and predicts that many lower-grade malls \"will go dark.\" (Green Street grades malls on several factors, including the quality of their tenants, as well as local competition, and economic and demographic conditions.)\nIt would be easy to lay the blame at the feet of the Internet, as we are so fond of doing. And while the Green Street report notes that the rise of online shopping is certainly a factor, according to a piece in The New York Times last month, the bigger problem is that there's an over-supply of retail space, and not enough stores to fill it. As a result, vacancy rates in malls are up, The Times reported:\nAbout 80 percent of the country's 1,200 malls are considered healthy, reporting vacancy rates of 10 percent or less. But that compares with 94 percent in 2006, according to CoStar Group, a leading provider of data for the real estate industry.\nNearly 15 percent are 10 to 40 percent vacant, up from 5 percent in 2006. And 3.4 percent\u2014representing more than 30 million square feet\u2014are more than 40 percent empty.\nAnd as malls struggle, so too does the mallrat culture exemplified (and maybe exaggerated) by Mall Madness. An iconic scene in Mean Girls (prefaced by the immortal line \"Get in, loser, we're going shopping\") portrays the mall as a \"watering hole\" for high schoolers. A 1985 study supports that view, calling the mall a \"third place\" for teenagers, \"a respite from the treadmill between home and school, a place for enjoying social life.\" Of the small group of Los Angeles teens the study interviewed, about half said they went to the mall to shop; the rest came to see friends, play video games, eat, people-watch, troll for dates, and\u2014the most teen answer of all\u2014\"just to have 'something to do.'\"\nThe mall was a \"third place\" for teenagers,\" a respite from the treadmill between home and school.\"\nThat's how I remember malls mostly, as places for aimless wandering and talking, with enough distractions to make it seem like you were \"doing something.\" But teens are going to malls less these days\u2014about 30 percent less often compared to 10 years ago, Quartz reports. It seems they're going to restaurants instead, which, those are cool places to hang out too, I guess.\nWhile it would be reasonable to argue that hanging out at the mall is a good way for kids to jump aboard the train of consumerism nice and early, there was something comforting about the panoply of identities for sale. (I know it's not great that stores and the things they sell are often stand-ins for identity, but they are and in the awkwardness of adolescence, you have to work with what you're given sometimes.) Maybe today you'd enter the shadowy, cologne-soaked labyrinth of Hollister, maybe tomorrow you'd peruse rows of Manic Panic in the (also fragrance-drenched) Hot Topic. Or maybe you'd just sit at the food court and eat soft pretzels with your friends, grateful for a time and a space away from the pressures of growing up.\n@julieebeck",

        "raw_content": "Yes, we all know there are good and bad in any profession, recruitment included. But it's a complex job, with a myriad of factors that can turn what appears to be a relatively straightforward request become a nightmare recruitment process. And have you ever considered that you might be part of the problem?\nIn this series we're looking at why agencies aren't prioritising your job vacancy.\nYou'd quite like an extra pair of hands in your team. You'd like to see who is in the market place. Jim, your Accountant is looking to retire. He's not sure when, but probably in the next twelve months or so you think. He does all the accounts through to the final accounts and does some of this from home. You think that perhaps you'd like to bring in someone slightly more junior ... Jim is a little expensive after all, and he has suggested that he could do the final accounts at year end.\nYou contact an agency to see who they have \"on their books\". They ask you for a job spec and some questions about who would fit in. You don't have a job spec because Jim has been doing the job for a long time, so you give them a rough guide of what he does. They ask for a meeting but you don't have the time. You just want some CV's sent over.\nNo matter how good they are, Recruiters need some basics in order to find you the right person. They need to know what the day to day duties of the job are. They need to know something about the culture of your business and perhaps the history of the role. They need to know the salary and benefits offered should they be successful. And they ideally need to meet you, if you are who the successful incumbent will be reporting to.\nIf you're not willing to provide this information, they will struggle to get buy in from candidates which limits the talent pool. It is often very difficult to know whether you are someone just \"dabbling\" or actually genuinely looking to hire if you are only giving little bits of information.\nIn short, ensure you are committed to hiring that person before contacting your agency.\nThanks for the help and inspiration in this recruitment journey, Greg & Chris Savage #SavageSprint",

        "raw_content": "1962 BSA A65 - NEW UNIT TWIN\nAfter 15 years of great success with their pre-unit twins, the 500cc A7 and the 650cc A10, BSA had a real challenge ahead of them. How do you follow up a 'home run' like the A7 & A10? They had proven themselves to be not only strong, but reliable (BSA's hallmark) with success on the racetrack and in the showroom. The pre-unit BSA twins were widely regarded as the epitome of the classic British vertical twin at the time. By 1957, Triumph MotorcyclesTriumph had converted its 350cc 3T to a unit-construction, followed by the 500cc twins in 1959. BSA being the parent company to Triumph must have felt a pressing need to beat Triumph to the punch with its big twins. Triumph was due to convert the 650 twins over to unit construction for model year 1963. So BSA made sure they introduced their new unit-construction 500 and 650 twins a year ahead of them, with the 1962 BSA A65 and A50.\nABOVE: Unfortunately, no suitable photos were available of a 1962 BSA A65. So this 1962 BSA A50, which is the 500cc version & almost identical in every other aspect, stands in. The most visual difference is that the A50 had a 7-inch front brake & the 1962 BSA A65 had an 8-incher. If you have a '62 A65, please send pictures of your bike.\nABOVE: BSA unit-construction A65 engine. This one is out of a '66 A65 Lightning (note the dual carbs). The engines remained essentially the same, externally from 1962 through the end in about 1972.\nIn a classic British move, BSA Motorcycles elected to build both their new 500cc A50 & their 650cc A65 to be basically identical in almost every way. This was done in an effort to save the costs of tooling & manufacturing different sets of components. So, aside from minor cosmetic variances, the only parts that weren't in common on the two bikes were the front brake (the A65 had an 8\" SLS & the A50 had a 7\") & the top end. Both models shared the same 74mm stroke, with a bore of 65.5mm for the A50 (yielding a displacement of 499cc), & 75mm for the A65 (for 654cc), slightly oversquare (very slightly, it was actually almost \"square\"), very unusual for a Brit bike at that time. Going Unit Construction not only cleaned up the lines of the bike, but it dropped 40 pounds off the weight. The new 1962 BSA A65 in single carb form made 38hp at 5800rpm with a compression ratio of 7.5:1. The engine followed the traditional British vertical twin layout: 360-degree crank (pistons rising & falling together), timing gears on the right, primary drive on the left & it followed BSA tradition by placing the camshaft behind the cylinders & running the pushrods up through a tunnel in the cylinder block. With the new unit design they tried so hard to 'clean it up' that they robbed it of much of its visual character. Whereas the old pre-unit BSA twins were handsome engines, the new A50s & A65s looked like bland lumps, the same on all sides. This was actually part of a clever plan BSA had hatched to be ahead of the rest of the world in adopting the \"power egg-look\". Why an engine should be made to look like an egg is beyond me, but this is the kind of thinking that ruined BSA in the years to follow.\n1962 BSA A65 - NEW ENGINE\nThe conversion to Unit Construction, started with 1962 BSA A65 & it's A50 little brother, allowed BSA to make many other needed (and some not so welcome) changes. For instance, the rocker arms were now on shafts supported by lugs cast into the cylinder head, rather than in separate rocker boxes which were bolted to the head. It made for a much stiffer structure & because all the valve gear was contained in a cavity in the very top of the head & sealed by a one-piece aluminum cover, there were virtually no top end oil leaks. A very neat package, in this respect.\n1962 BSA A65 - TEETHING PROBLEMS\nIn an effort to save a few cents (farthings), clever BSA used a copper-lead bushing instead of a main bearing on the timing side. These quickly wore out & caused lots of problems, and since the crankshaft received its oil supply from this location, the resulting lubrication problems caused engine catastrophic engine failures. It would be a few years before BSA would get it right. Today, if you have one of these early Unit BSA Twins, you can retrofit an upgrade to a roller bearing, if it hasn't been done already.\n1962 BSA A65 - NEW FRAME & CYCLE GEAR\nFor the 1962 BSA A65, a new full double-crade frame was designed following the pattern of the previous A-Range machines. Partially welded, partially brazed lugs, it was heavily reinforced around the steering head & swing arm pivot, making for a very solid frame.\nA65 Star Twin\nA65 Royal Star\nStandard Roadster\nPremium Roadster",

        "raw_content": "This morning I texted my brother, who lives outside Philadelphia, to console him over Penn State\u2019s loss to arch rival Ohio State last night. For Penn State fans it was an agonizing one-point loss due to the fact that their team squandered a 12-point lead in the fourth quarter. My text conversation with my brother went like this: (Me) \u201cHeartbreak Hotel\u201d; (Him) \u201cYes. Any hopes of playoffs gone. Always next year!\u201d; (Me) \u201cThat\u2019s what hope is all about\u201d; (Him) Thumbs up emoji.\nWhereas my text conversation with my brother concluded with his selection of a conversation-ending emoji, my conversation with myself about what I had said did not. As I continued to reflect on our text exchange, I began to question my knee-jerk declaration of hope to him. Upon further pondering, I realized that while thoughts of next year bringing a new opportunity for Penn State to win a national title reflects a sense of \u201chope so\u201d, in no way does it reflect a sense of genuine hope.\nWhat is hope? It is interesting to see in an Online Dictionary that a contemporary definition of hope is \u201ca feeling of expectation and desire for a certain thing to happen.\u201d In other words, our use of \u201chope\u201d in our culture today is more akin to \u201chope so.\u201d Interestingly, an archaic definition of hope is \u201ca feeling of trust.\u201d The archaic definition reflects more what genuine hope is than does the contemporary definition. Genuine hope is confident assurance of a future reality without any evidence of that reality in the present. Further, genuine hope is not only trust in the ability of someone or something to produce a desired result, but also trust that that someone or something will produce the desired result.\n\u201cHope so\u201d suffices in wishing for national championships, winning a lottery, making a hole in one, or closing a sale. That\u2019s because as significant as each of those is, none is a matter of life and death. Where \u201chope so\u201d does not suffice, is when it comes to the matter of life and death\u2014to be specific, the matter of life after death.\nHave you ever noticed that you and the people you know want to live forever? Have you ever noticed that you, and the people you know, sense deep down inside that you and they were made for something even better than what people get to experience here on earth? Why do you think that is? Ecclesiastes 3:11 says it is because God has \u201cplaced eternity\u201d in our hearts. The sense of eternity in our hearts means we know deep down that we were created to live forever, and we know deep down that as good as life on earth is, there is something even more special awaiting us. The Bible calls it heaven. How foolish to hang our hats for life after death on \u201chope so.\u201d How wise to hang our hats for life after death on genuine hope.\nBut where do we find such genuine hope regarding eternity? Look no further than the most famous verse in the Bible\u2014John 3:16. \u201cFor God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life.\u201d He, and He alone, is able to give confident assurance regarding the reality of heaven that one cannot yet see in this life.\nHope or hope so? On which are you hanging your hat?",

I take these two references because this special way should be consistent with the preservation of the single market and our collective interests.\n\"And you should understand that you cannot by definition have the full access to the single market if you don't tick the box.\"\nMacron insisted Britain would not get full access to the EU's single market without accepting its basic principles of freedom of movement and willingness to abide by EU jurisdiction.\n\"As soon as you decide not to join these preconditions, it's not full access,\" he said. \"So it's something perhaps between this full access ... and a trade agreement.\"\nMay, Macron to talk Brexit, defense and border security 6:08 AM ET Thu, 18 Jan 2018 | 03:09\nMacron repeated a warning he made during a visit to Britain on Thursday that full access to the EU single market for Britain's financial services was not possible.\n\"It depends on the proposals made by the UK,\" he said. \"But for sure, full access for financial services to the single market is not feasible, given the functioning of the single market - so by definition it's not a full access.\"\nBritain and the EU struck a divorce deal last month that paved the way for talks on future trade ties and boosted hopes of an orderly Brexit.\nThe BBC released extracts on Saturday of the Macron interview which it will broadcast in full in the Andrew Marr Show on Sunday.",

        "title": "Has Google finally found enterprise religion? | Computerworld",
        "raw_content": "Has Google finally found enterprise religion?\nA sleeping giant awakens\nGoogle I/O can be mystifying to someone with an enterprise IT perspective. Google's two-hour keynote to its annual company developer outreach (and technology roadmap) event featured a new connected-home virtual assistant (think Amazon Echo), engaging new chat software and next-generation VR technology that should replace the one that's made of cardboard.\nGoogle has known for some time that the enterprise is where the money is. But the company has been institutionally ill-prepared to make that shift from consumer products (most of which are free, but support their advertising mission) toward enterprise-class products and customers. This is a company that sometimes develops technology for technology's sake, then devises marketable products as an afterthought. While this is going to date me, the academic aspect to Google's DNA is reminiscent of another large tech company that we've all but forgotten: Digital. To be sure, the two company cultures were/are very different. But the devotion to technology and innovation, sometimes to the detriment of market success, are quite similar.\nGoogle has a habit of lavishing time on free products for consumers, then releasing an enterprise version with little fanfare or outreach -- then just dusting off its hands. That was the case in early 2007 with Google Apps Premier Edition, the first paid version of Google Apps and the first version aimed at business. Then as now, Google Apps for work environments costs $50 a seat per year.\nI visited the Googleplex in 2007 in search of an enterprise market strategy that would support enterprise IT in the way it needs to be supported. What I found was a lot of Google na\u00efvet\u00e9 about what enterprises need from enterprise apps vendors. Google Apps may be a fairly simple set of products, but that doesn't mean that enterprise IT's needs are simple. I didn't find what I was looking for.\nThat dusting-off-the-hands bit can be a real problem for enterprise customers. One CIO, who recently switched from Google Apps to Office365, said: \"Google is trying, but they don't understand enterprise rules and policies.\" Plus, \"we can't get our Google rep to respond in a timely manner. Sometimes he takes two to three weeks to answer and then he isn't really answering, he's just responding.\"\nThis is a recurring refrain.\nGoogle may finally be growing up, though. In recent years it started a slow, lumbering turn toward the enterprise cloud -- but it's extremely late to the party. If it can just get its mind around the customer base, and the products and services those customers need.... Enter Diane Greene, a cofounder of VMware tapped early this year by Google to run its enterprise cloud business. Her arrival signaled a reorganization that brought enterprise apps, including Google Apps, under her direction, too. So the products are finally aligned for enterprise buyers. (And it appears that Google's mobile productivity apps are already outpacing Microsoft's.)\nYesterday, a colleague and I piled into a bus at Google I/O and were ferried with others to the Googleplex, where Diane Greene and five members of her team awaited to tell us about Google's goals for enterprise cloud, its progress, Google Apps, the TensorFlow hardware supporting its cloud effort, and in particular TPU ASIC (designed to support voice and speech recognition, text recognition and image matching) -- and anything else that we could think of.\nA few things became apparent:\nGoogle is finally dead serious about delivering a full suite of enterprise cloud solutions.\nIt has a set of smart execs in place who understand the technology and the needs of enterprise customers.\nBecause it supports the cloud effort and will likely be sold to some enterprises as part of cloud solutions, Google Apps for Work is also being given direct emphasis with productivity and functionality enhancement and refinement.\nThe jury is still out on whether Google can figure out how to support the enterprise in two to three hours instead of two to three weeks. That's something Google is just going to have to invest in. What it has doesn't scale.\nGoogle should also revisit issues like software licensing (Microsoft is offering valuable discounts on things like data center servers), concurrent usage limits, storage and so forth. Because many of the Google enterprise apps were built as consumer products first, they're light on management tools and administrative features, a Microsoft strength.\nFinally, Google needs to have a better handle on customer pain points. For example, it rolled out the Postini anti-spam server tool under the Google label and unilaterally required all users to have a Google account to sign in to Postini. That wreaked havoc at companies where either they didn't have Gmail or not all employees had Gmail. Telling employees to use their personal Gmail accounts is not a viable solution for most CIOs.\nSo Google has a long upward climb ahead. It's not the No. 1 or No. 2 cloud company. It needs to develop an enterprise support system, probably with clean-sheet thinking. But it finally seems to have religion on developing and selling products to the enterprise. A sleeping giant awakens -- and hopefully that will mean more choice for IT.",

        "raw_content": "Tata Nano skilled workers' strike: Govt of Gujarat accused of supporting management at workers' expense\nTop all-India trade unions (TUs), including left-wing All-India Trade Union Congress (AITUC) and Centre for Indian Trade Union (CITU), Congress' Indian National Trade Union Congress, socialist Hind Mazdoor Sabha (HMS), and others, were joined by civil rights organizations to sharply criticize the Gujarat government for going out of the way to support the Tata Nano management in the 20-day-old strike by about 450 skilled technical workers.\nThe strike has acquired significance, as it takes place amidst reports that Tata Nano \u2013 which Prime Minister Narendra Modi during his chief ministership of Gujarat \u201csnatched\u201d from West Bengal chief minister Mamta Banerjee \u2013 is failing to be a successful car. Ever since the strike began, the production for Tata Nano is said to have come to a standstill. According to a calculation, Modi allowed a concession worth Rs 30,000 crore to woo Tata Nano from Singur in West Bengal.\nProblems began when two workers were suspended close on the heels of an application with the Gujarat labour commissoner around Diwali last year for setting up a registered trade union at the Nano plant, situated in Sanand, about 12 km from Ahmedabad, another 26 workers were suspended two months later when the workers went to find out what happened to the promise their colleagues would be taken back.\nIn a statement issued soon after a meeting at Ahmedabad's All-India Bank Employees Association (AIBEA) office, the Central and Gujarat-based TUs lent their strong support to the demand of the Tata Nano workers for allowing their democratic right to protest, which, it said, was sought to be undermined by the state government by declaring the strike as illegal and resorting to bringing police pressure in order to crush their right to strike and protest.\nThe meeting backed the Tata Nano workers' decision to hold a demonstration outside the Ahmedabad district collector's office on Monday at 11.00 am against the state government's \u201cexcessive interference in a matter which should essentially be between the workers and the management\u201d, the statement said, adding, \u201cThe officialdom, instead, should ensure end to workers' suspension.\u201d\nThe statement said, \u201cInstead of promoting and securing labour rights of workers and ensuring justice, the state government is acting as an agent of the Tatas to break the workers' unity, even as colluding with the Tatas in unfair labour practice through punitive suspension of the Tata Nano plant's union leaders.\u201d\nThe meeting, in which nearly 423 of 475 striking Tata Nano workers participated, saw the Tata Nano plant's newly formed union, Bharatiya Kamdar Ekta Sangh (BKES) a secret ballot to ascertain if the strike should. \u201cAll but one said the strike should continue till the suspension of all 28 workers was revoked\u201d, said Hiteshkumar Rabari, president of BKES.\nThe ballot took place following the failure of any compromise through the mediation of the Ahmedabad district collector on Friday between Tata Nano workers and the management. During the meeting, the district collector said the union leadership was \u201cpressuring\u201d their colleagues, one reason why they are on strike.\n\u201cWe told the collector that the strike is totally voluntary. We also invited him to oversee the secret ballot on whether to continue with the strike or not, which took place today. However, he never turned up\u201d, union secretary Umeshkumar Rathod said.\nThe \u201ccompromise\u201d suggested during the negotiations was that the strike would end, and the inquiry into the \u201cmisconduct\u201d, being carried out by a third party chosen by the company, would continue for three months, based on which the fate of the 28 workers would be decided. During this period, the workers would be paid 50 per cent of the salary. This was not acceptable to the union leaders.\nEconomy Law People Society\nLabels: Economy Law People Society",

The figures, released by the Government of India\u2019s Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation (MOSPI), show, it is the lowest growth over the last three years.\nIn the year 2012-13, Gujarat\u2019s growth rate was 10.84 per cent, which went down to 8.31 per cent in 2013-14.\nWhile the figures for the year 2015-16 have still not been officially released, experts have calculated that they would be 6.7 per cent, lower than the all-India average of 7.6 per cent. The calculation is based on Gujarat government estimates of current price GSDP (without deducting deduction), pegged at 10 per cent, lowest since 2010-11.\nInterestingly, eight major Indian states out of 21 have registered a higher rate of growth than Gujarat \u2013 providing ammunition to critics to declare that the state's neo-liberal economic growth model, projected by Prime Minister Narendra Modi for the country as a whole, is beginning to falter.\nThe highest growth rate for 2014-15 was registered by Bihar at 15.56 per cent, followed by Jharkhand (11.04 per cent), Telangana (8.82 per cent), Tamil Nadu (8.65 per cent), Andhra Pradesh (7.98 per cent), Haryana (7.98 per cent), and Chhattisgarh (7.85 per cent).\nSo far, only four major states have declared their GSDP estimates for the year 2015-16 \u2013 Andhra Pradesh (10.99 per cent), Bihar (10.27 per cent), Madhya Pradesh (10.16 per cent), Telangana (9.24 per cent), Karnataka (7.79 per cent), and Uttarakhand (7.65 per cent).\nIn per capita rate of growth, too, there is deceleration, the MOSPI figures show. At Rs 1,08,433 for the year 2014-15, the figures show that the growth rate was 6.80 per cent, down from 7.09 per cent in 2013-14 and 10.48 per cent in 2012-13.\nWhile Gujarat\u2019s per capita income is higher than the national average (Rs 72,889), five major states registered a higher per capita income than Gujarat \u2013 Haryana (Rs 1,24,092), Uttarakhand (Rs 1,20,759), Kerala (Rs 1,15,225), Tamil Nadu (Rs 1,13,817), and Maharashtra (Rs 1,13,817).\nNotably, according to neo-liberal economists, one of whom is currently Gujarat government\u2019s top man in the policy-making body, Niti Aayog, Arvind Panagariya, economic growth in the economy should automatically take care of the need for improvement in social sectors, a theory disputed by a wide range of economists, one of whom is Nobel laureate Amartya Sen.\nGujarat\u2019s per capita rate of growth at 6.80 per cent in 2014-15, say MOSPI data, is lower than five other states \u2013 Bihar (13.79 per cent), Jharkhand (10.31 per cent), Talangana (8.08 per cent), Tamil Nadu (7.81 per cent) and Andhra Pradesh (7.16 per cent).",

        "raw_content": "Govt of India \"dismantling\" eco-protection laws, dubbing those opposing development projects as \"anti-national\"\nBy V Suresh*\nJune 5 is celebrated globally as World Environment Day, a day to remind everyone about the fragility of the environment caused by human agency, to sensitise people about the urgency of citizen action to counter environmental degradation and to get all of to rededicate ourselves to preserving nature and wildlife, protecting environment, safeguarding natural resources and persuade and push governments globally to halt environmentally destructive, polluting and hazardous industries, development projects and uncontrolled urbanization.\nThe theme for this year's `World Environment Day' is \"Connecting People with Nature\". This year, we in India, have experienced the worst effects of climate change \u2013 we've had some of the hottest periods in the last many decades; many regions are experiencing continuous droughts; there's no predictability about rains and seasonal variations are an pressing reality we can no longer ignore. While many countries in the world are gearing themselves to counter the negative effects of climate change, many policy makers and researchers in India are denying the reality of climate change!\nAcross the country, many regions are suffering from unimaginable pollution of air, water and land caused by highly polluting industries. Environmental oversight and monitoring bodies like the Pollution Control Boards and other expert bodies have majorly failed citizens and nature, by persistently allowing polluters to escape liability and responsibility for running environmentally destructive, hazardous and polluting industries.\nAs though this were not enough, the Central Government has been steadily following a policy of dismantling all environment protection legislations on the plea that existing environment laws are proving a hindrance for international industries and capital to come to India.\nWhat is worse, any community, group, organisation or person opposing a development project or an industry on environmental grounds is dubbed to be `anti-national', `anti-development' and an enemy of growth. The end of this logic is dubbing environmentalists and the green movement as 'eco-terrorists' carrying the real threat of persecution and prosecution.\nNumerous examples exist including the coercive action against Greenpeace soon after the present central government came to power in 2014. Ironically the State, irrespective of whether it is the Central or State government, instead of implementing the Constitutional mandate in Art. 48A of the constitution that \"the state shall endeavour to protect and improve the environment and to safeguard the forests and wildlife in the country\", governments have been competing with each other to stress that they will not tolerate any criticism or demand for accountability of existing industry or proposed industrial project.\nIt is in this context that we thought we should focus this issue on the state of environmental protection in the country today. Space limitations limit us to include only a few issues from across the country. We, however, hope to be able to carry more such critical articles on the state of environment in different states, in future issues. We invite readers to contribute articles. Before signing off, the articles carried in this issue make a striking point: that citizens need to be highly vigilant if we need to safeguard and protect our ecology and wild life, our commons and resources.\nFor more than at any time before, all these are under tremendous attack by forces of industrialization and urbanization. While the challenges are huge, and the difficulties seemingly insurmountable, we need to derive strength and inspiration from the people of Dhinkia and its surrounding villages in Odisha who steadfastly opposed the POSCO steel project despite massive police action, which company after facing unrelenting people's struggle for 12 long years decided to drop the steel plant project.\nThe successful struggle of the Dongria-Kondhs against the Vedanta project in Niyamgiri and the victory of the villagers against the proposed nuclear power project in Mithi Virdi area in Gujarat are stories to inspire (Ironically, the victory of residents of Mithi Virdi has been offset by the invitation of the AP government to set up the same nuclear power plant of Westinghouse in Kovada in AP. But that represents the actual nature of environmental threat across the country). We salute all the brave people who have fought and are still fighting for environmental justice and human rights.\n*Editor, PUCL Bulletin (June 2017)",

        "raw_content": "Cincinnati Country Day School is nestled in a pastoral setting. Since its founding in 1926, the 62-acre campus has played an import part in fulfilling CCDS\u2019s mission. Beginning in the 1960s, environmental education became a more intentional part of the curriculum with organized nature walks, nature-oriented clubs, field trips, and beautification projects. Today, our environmental programs celebrate and encourage the various ways students connect with living communities inside and out of the classroom.\nOver the past several years, the Lower School has embarked on a vigorous outdoor education program for children 18 months through grade 4. This program, led by an outdoor education specialist, introduces and connects indoor classroom learning with outdoor classroom experiences that enhance, broaden, and deepen the traditional learning environment. From nature walks and bird blinds to water experiments and pond studies, Country Day students are able to make \"natural\" learning connections.\nThe creation of an Outdoor Education Area (OEA) animates a core thread of environmental studies throughout the Pre-K through 12 curriculum. The OEA helped guide the designing of our Master Plan to better utilize the space on campus, foster a campus community, and unify the campus with common areas where students and colleagues can interact and collaborate.",

(Posted by kshafer, Community Contributor)\nHands On Hartford recently received grants totaling $6,500 from Immanuel Congregational Church in Hartford to provide eggs and milk at the MANNA Community Pantry, and to support emergency help to keep families safely in their homes.\nHands On Hartford's food pantry supports over 400 families from across the City of Hartford every month with groceries to help them stretch their resources and keep food on the table. In addition to staples, like pasta, canned vegetables, rice and beans, and frozen meat, the pantry provides fresh eggs and milk, along with fresh produce. \"Our food pantry is there as a safety net for many people - often seniors and families with young children - living below the poverty line here in Hartford. We are always looking for ways to make the food we provide more nutritious,\" explained Barbara Shaw, Executive Director of Hands On Hartford. \"The feedback we've gotten from our families about the milk and eggs they receive has been tremendous. These items are a luxury for many, and we are thrilled with Immanuel Congregational Church's support in making this possible.\"\nIn addition to providing food assistance, staff at the food pantry also support clients who are on the verge of homelessness. Through this homelessness prevention program, families receive the support they need to stay safely in their homes. Sometimes, the need is simply some extra support to pay overdue utility bills, and sometimes the situations faced by these families are more complex. \"With the support of grants like this one from Immanuel, we are able to work with at-risk families more intensively to come up with long-term, lasting solutions so that our families can maintain stable housing,\" said Shaw. \"This is right in line with our mission of strengthening community in Hartford - again, we are grateful for the support.\"\nNancy Rion, chair of Immanuel's Social Action and Mission Committee, said, \"As a church that strives to love and work for justice, we are eager to direct some of our mission funds to the immediate day-to-day needs of our most challenged neighbors. Hands On Hartford is ready and able to do that well.\" Immanuel, on the corner of Farmington and Woodlawn in Hartford, is an open and affirming, just peace congregation of the United Church of Christ. Its mission activities include a particular commitment to the diverse residents of South Marshall Street in Hartford.\nHands On Hartford was founded in 1969 as Center City Churches, and is a human services agency focused on support to the Hartford community in the areas of food, housing and economic security. Its mission is, in partnership with others, to strengthen community in Hartford by responding faithfully to people in need through programs that change lives and renew human possibility.

Several people who lost loved ones in the wreck say they didn't want the book published and have asked people not to buy it.\nHeath, a former veterinarian and community coroner, said he is sorry some of families believe they had to give him permission to celebrate their loved ones. He said he relied on media interviews with family members and others to \"capture and retell the beautiful memories of lives lost and changed.\"\nMichelle Straschnitzki, whose son Ryan was paralyzed in the crash, said most of the families weren't ready and didn't want to participate in the book. She said the team's president at the time also asked Heath not to write it.",

Mrs McLennan loved her Edinburgh house. She just needed a bit more of it. Having friends or family round was always a bit of a squeeze, and her kitchen wasn\u2019t quite big enough to let her be the hostess with the mostest.\nBut what to choose? An extension? A conservatory? After chatting to the CR Smith team, she opted for the best of both worlds with a Lorimer Tiled Sunroom. With a solid, fully tiled roof and panoramic windows to let in more natural light, it\u2019s a stylish way to extend your living space, and one that integrates seamlessly with your home.\nWe needed a bigger kitchen and extra living space. The difference now is unbelievable.\nFor Mrs McLennan, it was the perfect solution, and her sunroom has transformed her home and life within. \u201cIt has given us so much space. We can finally enjoy family time. And at Christmas we can have all our friends over.\u201d\nSomething else she was looking for was peace of mind throughout the project. \u201cI wanted a company who would take charge from start to finish, and CR Smith went above and beyond.\u201d\nSpacious, bright, light and adding character to her home, the sunroom has been a big hit. \u201cWe\u2019re so pleased with it.

Golden Dawn supporters are notorious for their thuggish behavior and for carrying out violent attacks against immigrants, often causing severe injuries.\n\"This government is determined not to allow the heirs of the Nazis to poison our social life, to commit crimes, to terrorize and to undermine the foundations of the country that gave birth to democracy,\" said Prime Minister Antonis Samaras in a brief televised address to the nation Thursday.\nGolden Dawn itself insists it had nothing to do with the killing and has condemned the attack.\nAnti-fascist protests turned violent in several Greek cities Wednesday night, including the country's second-largest city of Thessaloniki and in Keratsini near the site of the stabbing, with rock-throwing demonstrators clashing with riot police firing tear gas and stun grenades.\nIn Keratsini, 130 people were detained during the clashes, with 34 of them later arrested. Scuffles broke out in the early hours of Thursday morning outside Athens police headquarters, where those detained had been taken.\nThe suspect in Fyssas' death appeared before a prosecutor Wednesday night and was given a three-day delay to prepare his defense. He is due back in court on Saturday. His wife and two other people were also arrested on suspicion of attempting to conceal evidence linking him to Golden Dawn.\nThe 45-year-old has not been officially named, in accordance with Greek law banning the identification of suspects except in particular circumstances. However, blogs have widely circulated his name and photos of him at what is described as a Golden Dawn summer camp.\nGolden Dawn, whose senior members have expressed admiration for Adolf Hitler although they deny being neo-Nazi, won nearly 7 percent of the vote in 2012 general elections, riding on a wave of anger against harsh austerity measures imposed as a result of Greece's deep financial crisis.\nGreece: Civil servants strike, services shut down ahead of EU, IMF visit\nEnergy Voices Can a pipeline save Greece?",

        "raw_content": "Destination insight: Hong Kong\nOnce a former British colony, Hong Kong is now a Special Administrative Region of the People's Republic of China. It's the world's 8th largest trading economy and an important global finance centre \u2013 attracting businesses from all of over the world.\nIf you're visiting for business or leisure, Hong Kong's rich mix of heritage and iconic attractions mean that you won't be disappointed.\n9 things to see and do in Hong Kong\n1. Hop on the tram to Victoria Peak\nThe Peak Tram was the first cable funicular in Asia and it's been in operation since 1888. It's evolved from using coal-fired steam boilers to ultra modern microprocessor-controlled electric drive systems! After what feels like an impossible, vertical climb, take in the spectacular panoramic views, head to Victoria Peak Garden for views of Lamma Island or simply enjoy a drink at the Peak Lookout's garden terrace. Best to go when the weather is good.\n2. Travel on the world's longest escalator system\nIf you happen to be heading from Central to the Mid-Levels, then try this amazing feat of engineering! Made up of a series of 20 escalators and three inclined moving walkways, it covers 800 metres and rises 135 metres into the steep hills of Hong Kong island. It's a great way to explore some of HK's famous attractions including the antiques and arts district, its museums and historic buildings. The Central-Mid-Levels Escalators run from Queen's Road Central to Conduit Road in Mid-Levels.\n3. Hong Kong by boat\nA well-loved institution, the green and white Star Ferries have been running since 1888 and still ferry commuters, and tourists alike, between Kowloon and Hong Kong Island. It's a great way to see Hong Kong's towering skyline \u2013 see if you can spot its tallest building: Two International Finance Centre (at 1,378ft)? It's well worth waiting until sunset, when you can see the city in neon.\n4. Explore Temple Street Night Market\nNo trip to Hong Kong is complete without going to a market and Temple Street is the ideal place to not only find a bargain but also where you can try Dai Pai Dong \u2013 street food \u2013 see Cantonese opera and have your fortune told! The market sells everything from clothes and shoes to cookware and everyday items \u2013 the best time to go is from 7-10pm when it's bustling with stalls and people.\nOnce a sleepy fishing haven, Stanley is a short bus ride away on the south coast. It feels a million miles away from the high rises, traffic and general busyness of the north side and is a great escape. It's also where you can glimpse colonial Hong Kong, walk along sandy beaches and enjoy delicious food and drink at one of the many excellent pubs and restaurants.\n6. Go racing at Happy Valley Racecourse\nOriginally a swamp, Happy Valley is now home to Wednesday night horse racing. Gen up on form in the Racing Post and head to Moon Koon Restaurant for fantastic track-side views. The restaurant offers reasonably priced Chinese food but it's worth booking beforehand. If you don't want to spend the whole evening at the races, turn up after a few races have been run and get in for free!\n7. Visit Big Buddha on Lantau Island\nOne of Hong Kong's most popular tourist sites, the Big Buddha is found at Po Lin Monastery on Lantau Island. Standing at 112-foot-tall, it's made from bronze and symbolises the stability of Hong Kong, prosperity of China and peace on earth. While you're there why not check out the Tea Gardens and Ngong Ping 360 Cable Car?\nToday it may be considered Asia's very own Las Vegas \u2013 and the only place in China where gambling is legal \u2013 but Macau has a rich history including 400 years of Portuguese occupancy intermixed with Chinese heritage. Catch a boat from Hong Kong Island and spend the day exploring Macau's cobbled streets, Mediterranean-style buildings, as well as the UNESCO World Heritage Site historic centre. Here you'll find the Ruins of St Paul, Fortaleza do Monte and the stunning square of Largo do Senado. It's also home to China's oldest lighthouse.\n9. Relax in Kowloon Park\nOnce an army fortress, Kowloon Park is now a peaceful haven and where you can escape the hawkers along Nathan Road. Find a bench and watch the world go by... Alternatively head to the aviary, wander around the maze, look for the terrapins in the Chinese Garden, have a swim in the pool or spot the flamingos and other aquatic bird life at the pond...\nAs one of the world's top 10 airports Hong Kong International Airport is located around 34km outside of Hong Kong.\nTo get from the airport to Hong Kong Island and Kowloon, the Airport Express is by the far the quickest option \u2013 taking around 24 minutes to Central \u2013 and passengers can use the free shuttle bus service to most major hotels from Kowloon and Hong Kong stations. Alternatively, hop on one of the many buses or catch a taxi. Hong Kong taxis are colour-coded according to their operating areas: red urban taxis serve all destinations throughout Hong Kong except Tung Chung Road and roads in south Lantau; green taxis serve only the New Territories and specific roads in Lantau; while blue taxis serve all destinations in Lantau and the airport.\nTravellers to and from mainland China can use ferry, road or rail links.\nTo make getting around really easy, it's worth investing in an (tourist) Octopus Card. It works similarly like the UK's Oyster Card: charge with money and then use on buses, trains, ferries and trams.\nThe Mass Transit Railway is a great way to get around. Made up of a mixture of underground, overland and light rail services, it's clean, fast and safe \u2013 and transports around four million people daily.\nThe old, wood-panelled, double-decker trams are great way to get from Kennedy Town to Chai Wan. They're a bit slow but full of atmosphere and not to be missed!\nThere is an extensive network of bus routes, but are best for exploring the south side of Hong Kong Island, the New Territories and Lantau Island.\nFerries link many of the outlying islands, Macua and mainland China.\nWalking is by far the easiest way to get around and see the city and there's always some form of public transport nearby for weary feet...",

        "raw_content": "Tufty Club. Easter 1975.\nA look through the files of the Cumbernauld News\nCUMBERNAULD\u2019s new court building opened for the first time after years of court sessions being conducted in Cumbernauld Village. The new District court would be part of the new civic complex in Bron Way and the court room would double up as a venue for council meetings. It had been specifically designed to keep prosecution and defence, witnesses, solicitors and the public separate.\nA NEWS poll revealed a community divided amongst itself over the route of the M80 \u2013 with BOTH Cumbernauld and Kilsyth communities saying \u2018\u2018We don\u2019t want it here!\u2019\u2019 The vast majority of Cumbernauld callers wanted the motorway routed through Kilsyth \u2013 and the bulk of Kilsythians wanted Cumbernauld as the chosen route. The poll was billed as the first real chance for locals to have their say \u2013 and as 2000 took part, it would seem to have achieved that aim!\nA LEGENDARY Irish band which made few Scottish appearances treated locals to a great night of entertaimment at Cumbernauld Theatre. County Clare\u2019s finest Stockton\u2019s Wing let audiences hear their new single \u2018\u2018Letting Go\u2019\u2019. The group were enjoying a renaissance which band members put down to the input of a new member Eamon McElhome who had written the song.\nA MOST serious blow to the residents of amenity-starved Balloch \u2013 that was the verdict about the removal of a telephone box from the Portakabin Community Rooms, after vandals struck. The Cumbernauld Development Corporation stressed that there was no need for the call box as the area was now sufficiently built up with housing \u2013 but members of the community council disagreed. They stressed that the payphone had twice proved to be a lifeline after an ambulance had to be summoned and that the need for it had NOT disappeared.\nA LOCAL sports club proudly celebrated the opening of a new clubhouse, after a lengthy period spent in temporary accommodation. Greenfaulds Bowling Club saw the \u00a370,000 facility officially opened by Provost Jim Pollock. It boasted changing facilities, a meeting room and naturally, its own refreshment area! Meanwhile local boxers from the Golden Gloves club found a new base \u2013 two empty hutted clasrooms at Glenhead Primary School, despite objections from some locals. The club insisted it would be an asset to the community.\nA BINGO and cinema complex was coming to Cumbernauld after being approved by Cumbernauld Development Corporation. Airdie-based County Properties & Developments had invested in a site below the Post Office and would create a 1300 seater bingo hall. The cinema would boast 350 seats.\nFANS of Country & Western were being ably catered to a Cumbernauld\u2019s Market Hall. For one of the units, The Alamo was selling a selection of gear ideally suited to enthuisiasts. This included belts, holsters, boots and riding chaps!\u201d\nCUMBERNAULD\u2019s newest rector was officially appointed for St Maurice\u2019s High School. Andrew McGarry would be keeping a watchful eye on 400 pupils and 37 teachers when the showcase secondary opened its doors. The Bishopbriggs man had been teaching in St Columba\u2019s secondary in Glasgow before the appointment. When the school itself would be completed, it would boast a language laboratory, a dance studio, a theatre and a swimming pool. The school would accommdate pupils from Condorrat Croy and Kilsyth and was costing \u00a31 million to build.\nTHE waiting was over after the new Greenfaulds High School opened its doors for the first time. Builders at the new \u2018superschool\u2019 were still on the site and expected to be so for several weeks. The school had a few teething problems, including a shortage of modern languages teachers. This meant that some children would not be taught French. Yet Rector David Arthur was looking on the bright side by saying: \u201cI cannot think of any facility we need in the school that has not been planned for.\u201d The \u00a31,250,000 building was not the only school to open in Cumbernauld after Carbrain Temporary School became Hillcrest Primary.\nA 16-week strike at the troubled Burroughs plant involving 1200 staff members was finally resolved, prompting sighs of relief across the town. Many families had undergone a lean period as the dispute had seen many locals resort to hire-purchase to make ends meet. An official of Cumbernauld Chamber of Trade said: \u201cMany shopkeepers bent the rules slightly and did not demand payment. Now that the men are back they will be given their due.\u2019\u2019 Staff had decided to finally accept a new wage offer from management.",

        "raw_content": "There's so much information available to us now, it can seem overwhelming. As a matter of fact, one statistic suggests that 90 percent of the information available to us was created within the last two years \u2013 that's a staggering thought! Any question you have, any thought you want to confirm, can be answered online or in publications available through a plethora of outlets.\nBut with an abundance of information comes misinformation, misunderstandings and misconceptions. There are as many places confirming the sky is blue as there are telling you it's really clear and the ground provides the sky color. How do you know what the right answer is, then?\nThe answer is actually in front of you \u2013 Common sense.\nThat's it \u2013 good old common sense. When you follow basic common sense guidelines, you will know when someone is telling you the truth and when you're being fooled. The most important thing, though, is to follow your own common sense, as opposed to taking the easy way out.\nUnfortunately, most people don't follow common sense. They figure it's much better to take the easy way out, go with the cheapest and the one with the least hassle, which most often leads to misconceptions.\nAuto Shipping Quote Misconceptions\nTo help you follow your common sense, here are three misconceptions we hear auto shipping quotes, in no particular order:\nA quote is always a guarantee\nWhether you're hiring a company to ship your car or to replace kitchen cabinets, before you hire them, you should get quotes. Most reputable companies will guarantee their quotes, but even then, there are ways a company can get around whatever \"guarantee\" they give.\nTo ensure your quote is really what the bottom line is going to be, read the fine print carefully. Do this before you agree to contract with your auto transport company, so you know what items could be added to your final price. Some examples of hidden fees include hook-up charges, delivery charges and charges for delivering to your home as opposed to a drop-off terminal.\nQuotes are based solely on distance traveled.\nWhile distance is a factor in the cost of a move, there are many other factors that go into an auto shipping quote. Vehicle weight, make and model, whether the car is being taken to a remote location or to a drop-off yard, if you're requesting an open or closed trailer and whether you need express shipment or a guaranteed delivery date all play a part in what the final quote is.\nEach company also has additional charges standard to their service. As we've already mentioned, it makes common sense to read your quote carefully so you don't get surprised.\nYou can get a lower price if you remove extras off your vehicle before shipping\nWe're not sure where this originated, but we hear it time and again: customers asking whether they can lower their rate if they remove hub caps, spare tires and so forth.\nWhile weight does play a role in transporting vehicles, it is more about how many vehicles can go onto a trailer than the bottom-line price. You can incur additional charges if your car is overweight, but basics like hubcaps and spare tires are automatically calculated into the standard vehicle weight. Removing them will make no difference.\nFollowing your own internal gut feel will help you determine what is the truth and what is just rumor. Make sure you get more than one quote, investigate the companies you call and then use common sense to choose the best, most reliable auto shipping company.\nIn the end, you will settle on the best option. And we are sure you will choose DAS.",

        "raw_content": "Datamation > News > Vista SP1, Windows 2008 'Released to Manufacturing'\nVista SP1, Windows 2008 'Released to Manufacturing'\nBy Stuart J. Johnston, Posted February 5, 2008\nMicrosoft finally ships Vista's vaunted first service pack as well as Vista's server counterpart \u0096 but they're not available quite yet.\nMicrosoft announced this week it has released both Windows Vista Service Pack 1 (SP1) and Windows Server 2008 to manufacturing \u0096 the final stage before a product actually gets into users' hands.\nIn the case of SP1, at least, there is one catch. If you're waiting on the edge of your seat, you still have a while to sit on your hands -- until mid-March.\nMeanwhile, Windows Server 2008 \u0096 Vista's server counterpart -- has also been released to manufacturing (RTM) and will be available for purchase to new customers starting March 1, the company said in a statement. Volume licensing customers with Software Assurance or Enterprise Agreements can download the server near the end of February.\nhttps://o1.qnsr.com/log/p.gif?;n=203;c=204660774;s=9478;x=7936;f=201812281339040;u=j;z=TIMESTAMP;a=20403972;e=i\"Vista SP1 is something all of our customers on the business side have been waiting for [so] we can now ring the SP1 bell,\" CEO Steve Ballmer said during a meeting with financial analysts Monday morning that was Web cast. Ballmer was referring to enterprise customers' penchant for waiting for the first service pack of a major Microsoft operating system upgrade before beginning wide-scale deployment.\nOfficially, Windows Server 2008, Visual Studio 2008, and SQL Server 2008 will be launched at Microsoft's planned \"Heroes Happen Here\" event in Lost Angeles on February 27.\nVisual Studio 2008 became generally available last week. At the same time, delivery of SQL Server 2008, the third product being launched at the end of this month, has been postponed until the third quarter, the company disclosed late last month.\nMeanwhile, after more than four months of testing, and repeated test releases, it's a little hard for some analysts to get excited about the final release of Vista SP1, but it's important nonetheless, not least because Vista and Windows Server 2008 have been positioned by Microsoft as complementary operating systems offerings.\nGaining synergy\n\"It's a good sign that they're done, and done at the same time, particularly for those people who want to gain any synergies from running the two products together,\" Michael Cherry, lead analyst for operating systems at researcher Directions on Microsoft, told InternetNews.com.\nBoth Vista and Windows Server 2008 share the same software core, as well as having some key interlocking features such as Network Address Protection or NAP, which quarantines new devices on the network until they have met specified security requirements.\nMicrosoft has seemingly taken its time getting Windows Server 2008 done. The first \"release candidate\" or RC of the server software was released to testers simultaneously last fall with the first beta test copies of Vista SP1.\nThe delay in providing Vista SP1 to customers has to do with coordinating availability across various distribution channels, according to a posting on the Windows Vista Team Blog Monday by Mike Nash, corporate vice president of Windows product management. That includes PC OEMs, retail packaged product, and download sites.\n\"In mid-March, we will release Windows Vista SP1 to Windows Update (in English, French, Spanish, German and Japanese) and to the download center on microsoft.com. Customers who visit Windows Update can choose to install Service Pack 1,\" Nash's post read. \"In mid-April, we will begin delivering Windows Vista SP1 to Windows Vista customers who have chosen to have updates downloaded automatically,\" he added.",

        "raw_content": "Photo credit: By LA(Phot) Dave Jenkins under Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 Unported License.\nChildren learn the language spoken by their parents, what\u2019s usually called cradle language. We learn our mother tongue seemingly without any effort at all. At least, people agree that learning their native tongue did not give them as much difficulty as a second or third language that they acquire at a much later age.\nThere is another form of language that we learn though we\u2019re not aware of it \u2013 it\u2019s called emotional love language. This language is what people use in expressing their feelings to others. All of us have a primary love language inasmuch as we have a mother tongue.\nThe need to be aware of what love language we speak becomes evident when relationships break down and eventually fail. We do not realize it but differences between our primary love language and that of our partner or spouse may contribute to relationship issues. We also communicate using love language with our family and friends. If we\u2019re concerned about our relationship with our loved ones then it is imperative that we learn more about love languages. We might have to learn a second love language in order to make a relationship work, or at least understand how the people who matter to us communicate their feelings.\nYou can express love to others using the five languages of love:\nSome of the most powerful means of expressing love are words of affirmation. A person whose love language consists of actual words or verbal compliments thrives most when they hear kind words and words of affection, especially \u201cI love you.\u201d Words of encouragement go a long way with this person. This same person would be sensitive to unkind words and insults, though.\n2. Quality time with intimate conversations\nFor others, words are not as important as spending time together and being present for their loved ones. People whose love language leans more toward quality time are especially hurt when their loved ones don\u2019t show up for dates and important occasions and when they do not get the attention that they think they deserve. Quality time with intimate conversations means the world to these people.\nThere are people who speak a love language that is founded on gifts, more importantly the thoughtfulness behind the presents they receive. The gesture of kindness and affection give through gifts is enough to satisfy them, and they also express their love best by giving the perfect gifts for their friends, family, and their partners or spouses.\nThere is another means by which people show their love to others \u2013 acts of service. Easing the burden of others and taking on responsibilities on their behalf can be a powerful gesture of love and affection. Doing something, no matter how small the act of service is, and executed with a positive vibe is how the language of love is expressed by these people.\nThe last love language is physical touch. If this is your primary love language then you go about expressing how you feel with hugs, kisses, pats on the back, and hand holding. For people who express their feelings through touch, the actual presence of the loved one is crucial. They feel secure and comfortable with affectionate physical contact and these actions do more for them than words or other assurances.\nThere are many ways to express love while avoiding conflicts and feelings of resentment in any relationship. You might need to determine the love language of the people who matter to you and learn to be fluent in them.\nacts of service, expressing love, Five Languages of Love, physical touch, quality time, thoughtfulness, words of affirmation\nLearning and Having Fun with Syntactic Ambiguity\nThere are times when you are faced with sentences that do not seem to make any sense.

        "raw_content": "Administrative detention used on 22 Palestinian teens in past 20 months\nMousa H., 17, latest Palestinian teenager incarcerated without charge or trial for an indefinite period. (Photo: H. family)\nRamallah, May 18, 2017\u2014At least two Palestinian teenagers, both under 18, received administrative detention orders in 2017 following accusations of planning or threatening to commit violence.\nA lawyer appealed the administrative detention order against one of the teenagers and secured his release in mid-April after 48 days of incarceration without charge. The child and his family spoke to Defense for Children International - Palestine on the condition of anonymity. The second teenager, 17-year-old Mousa H. from the West Bank town of Silwad, northeast of Ramallah, received a two-month administrative detention order on April 13.\nMousa told DCIP that an interrogator accused him of \u201cposing a threat to the security of the area.\u201d Much of the questions concerned a sibling\u2019s possible involvement in a recent attack which caused the death of an Israeli soldier. \u201cThe interrogator asked me if I or someone else sent my brother to carry out the attack,\u201d said Mousa.\nThe interrogation took place three days after some 30 Israeli soldiers raided Mousa\u2019s family home in Silwad around 4 a.m. on April 7, Mousa told DCIP in a sworn testimony. They searched the home and questioned Mousa and his father for several hours before arresting the teenager. While transferring Mousa to a nearby Israeli military base, two of the soldiers repeatedly slapped and kicked him. He arrived at Ofer prison, near Ramallah, more than 10 hours after his arrest, underwent a strip search, and ended up in the juvenile section.\nAdministrative detention permits military commanders or government officials to incarcerate individuals without charge or trial based on secret evidence for indefinite periods.\nIt will be nearly a year of incarceration for Ahmad H., who turned 18 in March, when his administrative detention order expires in late July, with no guarantee of release.\nIsraeli interrogators accused Ahmad of incitement over Facebook posts. On August 10, 2016, Israeli authorities placed the teenager, then 17, under administrative detention for six months. They renewed the order on January 31 for two months, and again on March 31, for four months. Ahmad\u2019s parents told DCIP that their son was still in the juvenile section at Israel\u2019s Ofer military prison, outside Ramallah.\nIn October 2015, Israel renewed the practice of administrative detention against Palestinian children in the West Bank for the first time in four years.\nDCIP has documented the use of administrative detention against six children in 2015, 14 in 2016, and two in 2017. Of these, 18 were released without charge after spending between three and 10 months in administrative detention, and two were charged, convicted and sentenced after spending three months in administrative detention. Two Palestinian children, one of whom has since turned 18 years old, remain in administrative detention.\nAccording to media reports, around 850 Palestinian prisoners have remained on hunger strike since April 17 in protest of their ill-treatment and denial of due process at the hands of Israeli authorities, including the use of administrative detention.\nDCIP considers all persons below the age of 18 to be children in accordance with the CRC.",

        "raw_content": "This a great day for freeloaders everywhere. Government hand-outs to those who don't need nor deserve them piss me off.\nThis year, Americans\u2019 day of tribute to their federal overlords falls on April 18. As calculated by the Tax Foundation, the average American will work from January 1 to April 24 (Tax Freedom Day) to pay his share of taxes to all levels of government with some $3.3 trillion to be forked over to the federal government and $1.6 trillion to state and local jurisdictions.\nWhile any talk of tax cuts are verboten on the Democratic side of the presidential campaign, the remaining Republican contenders have offered their views on the matter suggesting a flat tax, reduction in corporate tax rates, and a call for the consolidation of the current tax bracket from seven to four. Most of these and their variations have been trumpeted before and even if enacted would not permanently undo the crushing tax burden or prevent rates from escalating to even more confiscatory heights.\nIf real and lasting tax relief is ever going to come, a more fundamental alteration of tax policy needs to be taken, which has not been suggested by any of the presidential contenders, but had once been an integral part of the nation\u2019s political thought.\nOne of America\u2019s most neglected political theorists of the 19th century was South Carolina statesman John C. Calhoun, who wrote the important treatise, A Disquisition on Government. Calhoun perceptively saw that politically, society is divided between two distinct groups: taxpayers and taxconsumers. Obviously, taxpayers are the ones who \u201cpay\u201d taxes while taxconsumers, such as government employees, welfare recipients, state contractors, and all others that receive income from the public trough, \u201cconsume\u201d or live off taxation.\nNaturally, when it comes to the issue of taxation, taxconsumers will be in favor, or, at least, want to maintain the status quo and, more than likely, would support notions of tax increases. Taxpayers, on the other hand, would oppose increases or enlargement of the tax base, since they are the ones \u201cfooting the bill.\u201d\nOf course, politicians of all stripes and colors try to blur this distinction that Calhoun so brilliantly made, especially on tax day by declaring how \u201cthey paid their taxes.\u201d This, however, is sophistry.\nIn reality, politicians are just returning some of the loot that they coercively took from their fellow citizens. Federal government employees in essence do not pay federal taxes! Nor do individual state employees pay state taxes. This is merely an accounting gimmick to bamboozle the public. And, this is one of the reasons that, for the longest time (and wisely so), citizens of the District of Columbia could not vote in federal elections since most of them were government employees and would, in their self interest, oppose tax cuts or public spending reductions.\nWhen government was limited and the welfare state effected only a small group, voting and levels of taxation did not have a significant correlation. However, with the number of people working for the government in the millions and those dependent on state largesse in the tens of millions, who votes, and in what numbers is extremely important.\nIt has been recently estimated that of the total U.S. adult population of some 260 million, only one third (some 79 million) can be said not to be dependent on state support for their existence while 70% of the adult population or 57% of the total population is dependent on some form of state aid. And, unfortunately, all indicators point to more and more headed for the dependency category, primarily due to the destructive economic policies of the Obama Administration.\nAll of those who seek to lower the oppressive levels of taxation not only in America but throughout the Western world are foolish if they allow those who parasitically live off others to have a voice in choosing candidates or initiatives in regard to taxation. Democracy does not trump human nature. State dependents will vote for those they perceive will continue their subsidies.\nInstead of lobbying for the redress of phony grievances against Politically Correct victims and groups, social justice warriors should direct their energies to the long suffering U.S. taxpayers and demand that those who live off them should have no say in either how much taxpayers are to pay or how their confiscated wealth is to be dispersed.",

        "title": "Saturn\u2019s rings are sight to behold - Delaware Gazette",
        "raw_content": "Saturn\u2019s rings are sight to behold\nHere\u2019s a good reason for checking out Saturn, which is high in the south, right above the lid of the teapot-shaped constellation Sagittarius right now: The first view of Saturn in a telescope can be a life-changing experience. That I\u2019m still writing this column after 30 years is a testament to my slack-jawed wonder when I saw the rings of Saturn for the first time when I was 14 years old.\nThe rings were as much of a revelation to me as they were to Christiaan Huygens when he saw them as a ring in 1659. Previously, Galileo had seen two lumps on either side of the planet and proclaimed that \u201cthe farthest planet is triple in form.\u201d Later, he saw the lumps mysteriously disappear for a few days. His only explanation was a mythological reference: \u201cSaturn has eaten his children.\u201d\nIt took Huygens\u2019 far better telescope to see that Saturn \u201cis surrounded by a thin, flat ring, nowhere touching.\u201c\nThe ring turned out to be an odd bird, to say the least. Even the visible portion of the ring is enormous. Saturn is gigantic at 75,000 miles wide. We now know that Huygens\u2019 ring spans a quarter of a million miles. It would just fit between Earth and its moon.\nYet, it appeared to be exceedingly thin, and its tilt varies from our vantage point as Saturn orbits the sun. Huygens thus suspected that the ring would periodically appear \u201cedge on\u201d to observers. For a few days every 15 years, the rings are thin enough to disappear completely. On those rare nights, there\u2019s nothing in the world quite like hosting a bunch of cub scouts who have come to see the glory of Saturn\u2019s rings. \u201cJip!\u201d one of them yelled.\nHuygens explained Galileo\u2019s lumps and their disappearance, but he raised a far greater conundrum. Why was Saturn apparently the only planet to have a ring girdling it? What in heaven\u2019s name was it? How did it get there?\nThe mystery compounded when in 1675, Giovanni Cassini pointed his much-improved telescope at Saturn and saw that the ring was, in fact, rings.\nThese days, it doesn\u2019t take much of an amateur telescope to see the major gap in the ring, which is called Cassini\u2019s Division in honor of its discoverer. In the time since, using larger and better telescopes and even a planetary orbiter, also named after Cassini, astronomers have discovered that the ring is really composed of more than 100,000 or more ringlets. Even Cassini\u2019s Division is not really a gap at all. Within it are several faint subdivisions, including a ringlet named after the great Huygens himself.\nAs the number of rings increased, so did astronomers\u2019 curiosity about their composition. In 1659, James Clerk Maxwell proved that the rings could not be solid. They had to be rotating around Saturn. Otherwise, the planet\u2019s enormous gravity would haul them in. But rotating solid rings would simply tear themselves apart.\nAccording to Maxwell, they must consist of innumerable, small particles, all of which are in independent orbit around the planet.\nToday, astronomers estimate that Saturn has around a billion trillion (that\u2019s a one with 21 zeros after it, Earth people) mostly tiny moons circling it. We now know that if those ring particles were lumped together, they would form a Saturnian moon only 30 or 40 miles wide. That tiny amount of material is spread pretty thinly. In some places, the rings are only a few hundred yards thick.\nHow can such a whole lot of nothing shine so brightly? The most casual of observers can see that they are brighter than the surface of Saturn. Only ice explains such brightness, and most astronomers agree that the rings are composed mostly of plain old water ice.\nAstronomers still argue about the origin of the rings. Were they formed with the planet 4.5 billion years ago? Were they the result of early impacts between Saturnian moons? Are they rings of debris that never formed into moons? Are they the result of a moon or moons that came to close to the planet and were torn apart by Saturn\u2019s gravity? Or are they a much more recent collision between a passing asteroid and one of Saturn\u2019s moons?\nDespite all the evidence collected from the Cassini spacecraft orbiting Saturn, the battle rages on. Two theories dominate the discussion. Some astronomers argue that the rings are very old, perhaps as old as Saturn itself. They consist of orbiting rings of debris that would normally have formed into a moon (or moons). They were prevented from doing so by Saturn\u2019s enormous gravity.\nThat supposition has a serious problem. The rings are icy and very bright. Over time, the infall of tiny micrometeorites, meteoric dust really, should have darkened the ring particles.\nIn fact, the icy brightness of the rings is cited as evidence for the young-ring hypothesis. As early as the 19th century, \u00c9douard Roche argued that the rings might have been formed when one of Saturn\u2019s moons spiraled toward Saturn and was ripped apart by Saturn\u2019s gravity.\nMore recently, R. M. Canup has refined Roche\u2019s conjecture. As one of Saturn\u2019s moon was drawn closer to the planet by Saturn\u2019s considerable gravity, its icy outer layer was stripped off, which then distributed itself around the planet as ring particles.\nIn another young-rings scenario, the rings are the result of a massive collision between a passing comet or asteroid and one of Saturn\u2019s icier moons. The impact would have shattered the moon liberating the bright, uncontaminated ice underneath.\nSuch \u201cdisrupted moon\u201d ideas clearly explain the predominance of bright, young, icy particles in the rings. However, proponents of the old-ring theory respond that the brightness of the rings could have been caused by other factors.\nSome proponents of the old-rings theory suggest that the rings are being protected from contamination by the big, middle ring, which is just massive enough to absorb the micrometeorites without darkening very significantly.\nOthers argue a more complex scenario. If the material in the rings is dense enough in spots, that material might start to form into moon-like clumps, which would protect the inner material from contamination by dark micrometeorites. Subsequent impacts by other large ring material might break up the clumps and redistribute their shiny interior pieces back into the rings.\nSaturn will probably always have nearly invisible, dusty rings as micrometeorites bombard its icy moons and release a thin cloud of icy, orbiting debris. But the bright rings we see today may be a passing phase in Saturn\u2019s long life as Saturn\u2019s gravity draws them inexorably inward toward absorption by the planet.\nDepending on their origin, they could be very old and permanent fixtures. Or they could be very young, a mote in Saturn\u2019s eye that will eventually be washed away as Saturn\u2019s gravity draws the larger particles in.\nOver the centuries, the battle has raged, and astronomers are still uncertain. When you are staring at the rings, you are staring in the face of one of science\u2019s greatest mysteries, and one of the solar system\u2019s most beautiful oddities. Go find yourself a telescope and check it out.\nCheck out Saturn at one of the upcoming Friday night programs at Perkins Observatory. For more information, call 740-363-1257.\nHi!

And what did they hope to be able to do? \u201cI can\u2019t wait to count to 100!\u201d \u201cI want to write a book!\u201d And, of course, \u201cI can\u2019t wait for recess!\u201d Students brainstormed and we made a visual chart that listed all the different things members of our Crew want to accomplish this year.\nStudents reflected and thought to themselves about the \u201done thing\u201d most important to each of them\u2014that they want to accomplish this year--their hope and dream.

Their hopes and dreams had us thinking, if we want our hopes and dreams to become a reality, we need certain norms and expectations to exist within our classroom. Students brainstormed various ideas such as \u201cI want to be a great reader, so I am going to need quiet during reading time\u201d and \u201cI want to become a light leader, so I am going to need to show all of the Habits of Character everyday!\u201d. We categorized and synthesized our norms into our \u201cCrew Promises\u201d. Students agreed these were the 5 norms/expectations that would govern our classroom and help us achieve our goals. Every student put their handprint around our Crew Promise poster and agreed to follow them as best they can every day. We refer to our norms regularly and they will be a great guide to help first grade reach their hopes and dreams.",

        "title": "Failing Her Early Test Can Leave Any Nice Guy Alone and Wondering",
        "raw_content": "Written or posted by Peter White on August 8, 2009 and was last updated on February 12, 2019 Follow me on Twitter here.\nI\u2018m friends with this attractive bartender and we talk a lot about the guys who approach her all night long. Some are nice. Some are not. Today\u2019s lesson is about one of those nice guys and how he failed her early test.\nIt\u2019s important because there are some major differences of opinions here. Tell me below what\u2019s your opinion on what happened. Love to hear it.\nIn his eyes \u2013 he probably thought he was going to pass her \u201cwhen to call her after you got her number\u201d test and we\u2019ll get to what he did in a moment.\nIn her eyes he failed that test too.\nBUT I think they\u2019re both wrong.\nWhat I believe happened will definitely show you how to pass a woman\u2019s early test making it far less likely you\u2019ll be stuck home alone wondering what went wrong instead of enjoying a date with her.\nShe began to tell me about this guy she met the other night. They talked for a while and in her words, \u201cIt went well.\u201d He was nice. He seemed like a good person so when he eventually asked for her number, she gave it him.\nAll is well. You\u2019d think so but here\u2019s where things got all messed up.\nI said, \u201ccool\u201d and she suddenly sits up from her stool, her eyes widen, she lets it out a huge, \u201cBUT\u2026\u201d\nHe called her around ten the next morning and of course, she didn\u2019t answer.\nShe claimed that he called her way too quickly so she let it go to her voice mail.\nShe believed \u2013 TEST FAILED!\n(*Side note guys\u2026 it\u2019s one thing to call a woman the next morning and I\u2019ll show you how you can call her whenever you want BUT think first about who you\u2019re calling. She\u2019s a bartender and they can work until 4am and go to bed at 7am. Calling her at 10am only guarantees she\u2019s not going to answer her phone.)\nEventually she listened to it and here\u2019s the message he left:\n\u201cI \u2018m doing (whatever he was going to do) this afternoon but call me back if you\u2019re interested in going to the movies tonight.\u201d\nShe told me it was a big mistake and because of it, she waited a week to call him back. He didn\u2019t answer and let it go to voice mail. She hung up without leaving a message.\nFast forward to a week later when he finally called her back and of course she didn\u2019t answer.\nShe let me know that she\u2019ll never call him back or answer if he calls again because she\u2019s NEVER going out with him anyways.\nOkay\u2026 he might\u2019ve delayed in calling her back because of some stupid dating rule \u2013 he probably thought it was a good thing to not look so eager. Which in his situation was and I\u2019ll explain that part in a minute.\nHe also (just maybe) realized that calling her the next day was too quick and it was big mistake. It was a mistake but there\u2019s more going on which we\u2019re going to get into.\nWhen you\u2019re done with this post \u2013 you\u2019ll definitely want to read this to avoid the BIG mistakes.\nIt was written over ten years ago and it still rings true with me as I\u2019m sure it will for you too. (It was actually the very first article I ever read on attraction. Read on some Myspace page. Told you it\u2019s that old.)\nDon\u2019t let the age fool you. Read it. Memorize. Avoid what\u2019s listed in it and trust you\u2019ll be so far ahead in attracting women you\u2019ll see instant, yes, an INSTANT change in how women see you.\nEither way \u2013 mistakes happen.\nNobody is perfect. Guys do this stuff all the time. If you\u2019ve done it \u2013 do NOT worry about it. There\u2019s a new plan for you which will erase your old mistakes and set you on a new and better path so you\u2019re not left wondering or blaming yourself.\nAbout her \u2013 again \u2013 she\u2019s an attractive bartender and gets approached by guys ALL the time. Which means she\u2019s a full out tester. She has to be.\nShe\u2019s also pretty smart when it comes this stuff except in this case she was WRONG for which I happily and teasingly told her so with my perspective on things.\nShe believed the test he failed was by calling her too early.\nA little because of the time of day and a little too quickly. Made him look desperate.\nWe went on to \u201cdiscuss\u201d what I believed REALLY happened that assured they were never going to go out on any date \u2013 let alone hang out.\nThere was a another test neither one of them saw. It had practically nothing to do with calling her.\nYes. In her eyes or mind he failed one of her first tests but nope, the actual failure (for him) happened long before that first phone call.\nThe call was just her excuse or rationalization based on the fact that he did absolutely NOTHING to get her excited about talking or seeing him again.\nListen to how she described the interaction when they first met,\n\u201cHe was nice. The conversation went well. He seemed like a good guy.\u201d\nNow before you go on believing it was because he was too nice\u2026 hear me about because this changes EVERYTHING.\nFast forward to his morning phone call keeping their \u201cnice\u201d conversation in mind from the night before.\nWhen the phone rang she was IMMEDIATELY reminded of him and some feelings went through her head. This happens to ALL women as they\u2019re deciding what to do next or whether they want to get back to you or answer their phone no matter WHEN you call her.\nHer thought process became this:\n\u201cNice \u2013> Well \u2013> Actually kind of BORING \u2013> Called me quickly \u2013> Needy \u2013> Seems a little desperate \u2013> We didn\u2019t even really connect all that well \u2013> What did I get myself into? \u2013> No, I don\u2019t think so \u2013> Not interested \u2013> Not feeling attracted to him at all.\u201d\nHer subconscious (or intuition on guys) detected all that from just a few interactions which is big reason why passing a woman\u2019s early tests are so very important and WHY it has little to do with calling her quickly.\nWait\u2026 before you connect the desperate or needy thing above because I have once again, a different more counter-intuitive perspective which will shed some light on this dreary picture.\nI offered her a different scenario and waited for her to respond.\n\u201cWhat if this guy really excited you? What if right after you met him you couldn\u2019t get him out of your mind? What if instead of having a nice conversation you had a heated fun argument full of banter and wit and he teased the hell out of you\u2026\nAnd that very same guy called you the next morning?\u201d\nHer eyes lit up as she smacked me on the arm, \u201cYES!!! You\u2019re right!\u201d\nThen I suggested a \u201cwhat if \u201d he left a better impression, as noted above, and she got this message instead of the unfortunate lame one he did leave,\n\u201cGreat meeting you yesterday. I\u2019m going to be busy for a while but I wanted to make sure you weren\u2019t lost without my great conversation skills. I\u2019ll call you back soon. We\u2019ll do something.\u201d\nMy point is \u2013 after leaving a real (attractive) impression on her which has little to do with being nice \u2013 you do NOT have to leave some pre-programmed message or follow a wait time before you first call her\u2026\nAll you have to do is pick up right where you left off the last time you spoke and REMIND her, assure her, of who you are and what you\u2019re going to mean to her.\nIt would\u2019ve become perfectly naturally to leave her a message the very next day and she wouldn\u2019t even have considered that he called her too quickly.\nLeave an amazing lasting impression on a woman and she\u2019ll want you to call her as quickly as you can and she won\u2019t think twice about it.\nThe call test won\u2019t mean anything and she won\u2019t even consider it being a failure.\nShe\u2019ll want to know you remembered her. She\u2019ll want to know you\u2019re at least interested in getting to know her because \u201chello\u201d you DID ASK FOR HER NUMBER.\nIf you want to know my personal thoughts on calling or texting her and when \u2013 you can do so here: How Long Should You Wait Before You Call or Text a Girl? \u2013\n(Just wait until you\u2019re finished here first. This stuff can get very confusing if you bounce all over the place. One thing at a time.)\nFailing a woman\u2019s early tests such as this is rarely about knowing or not knowing how long to wait before you call her\nThe test starts from first eye contact and continues as you interact with her.\nThis guy\u2019s niceness had nothing to do with what happened or why he probably spent a few weeks wondering what the hell happened \u2013 oblivious to when or how he screwed it up.\nHe probably still thinks it was because he called her too quickly.\nHe failed because he did little to create attraction and leave her wanting more of him.\nShe just put it together in her head that way \u2013 nice, boring, and now he\u2019s calling too quickly. If he gave her every reason to eagerly await his call \u2013 things would\u2019ve have played out differently and she\u2019d be the one wanting to pass his tests.\nAgain when you\u2019re done with this post \u2013 read the article below because it will show and prove to you that his niceness wasn\u2019t the real test he failed plus the part of being nice that does matter in attracting women.\n\u201cThe bottom line is that if you interact with a woman long enough that she forms an \u201cimpression\u201d of you, and she doesn\u2019t \u201cfeel it\u201d for you, then you\u2019re done.\nWomen test men CONSTANTLY.\nAnd ATTRACTIVE women test men MUCH MORE INTENSELY than \u201cregular\u201d women.\nIf you don\u2019t know how to spot these tests (and most of them are very subtle), and then deal with them, you\u2019re going to lose your chance to create ATTRACTION before you even GET it.\nWhat\u2019s been covered so far\u2026\nObviously you want to pass a woman\u2019s tests. Here\u2019s my page to help you do just that: Understanding A Woman\u2019s Test and How To Pass Them.\nI also lined this up for you BUT you have to give over your email to watch but it\u2019s all good because it\u2019s from David DeAngelo AND you get to download a free report or \u201cexercise\u201d which will show you how to pass all of her tests.\nHere\u2019s the video link: Make Her Want You: How To Create Chemistry, Pass Her Tests And Avoid Rejection.\nOkay so it\u2019s not your niceness which is the mistake with women here.\nIt\u2019s the FIRST interaction which starts with eye contact and continues through your interactions with her where the real tests are failed and the mistakes are made.\nYou want to make sure you\u2019re making a great first impression which makes the problems of when to call her not an issue at all. You can basically do what you want \u2013 within reason \u2013 and she\u2019ll want to hear from you as quickly as possible.\nYou also want to leave her with a REAL desire to see you again AND give her a reason to want to continue where things left off.\nBecause then and only then can you stop worrying about all the rules or passing her tests because when done right \u2013 she\u2019ll be more interested or worried about passing your test and if you are interested in HER or not.\nI spend an enormous amount of time giving women advice and believe me \u2013 when they FEEL a certain way about a guy \u2013 something you CAN do\u2026 they\u2019re so wrapped up in your interest in them, they get themselves in a lot of trouble as they forget about their end of the deal.\nIt\u2019s a two way thing here. Just the same as you might worry or be concerned if some woman is into you \u2013 so is she (and much more) IF you do things right from the beginning.\nDon\u2019t you think it\u2019s best to get out of your own way so she can experience all you\u2019ve created rather than getting caught up in all the mind-games you play on yourself trying and hoping you don\u2019t break some stupid rule or fail her test?\nI think so and if you don\u2019t \u2013 let me hear about it below. It\u2019s ALWAYS open for discussion.\nI hear you and I know you read it all too often if you\u2019ve been around the web looking for answers on women\u2026\nSure \u2013 create attraction \u2013 that\u2019s all you hear but NOBODY tells you exactly how it\u2019s done and I\u2019ll admit, I\u2019ve been guilty of that myself.\nSign up below to my newsletter and read chapter one.\nBy the time you\u2019re done you\u2019ll know exactly what MUST happen for ANY woman to feel attraction for you and the really cool part is \u2013 you don\u2019t even have to know how to trigger it.\n(Of course I won\u2019t lie \u2013 for maximum success and to become a chooser as I like to say \u2013 understanding attraction is important. Which is why in your first letter I can get you THAT book for a great price. Don\u2019t worry about the money. You can make that back easily, right? Of course!)\nRemember we\u2019re in this together and I don\u2019t mean that we lining up so weird-ass bro-code stuff either.\nI\u2019ll help you IF you are willing to TRY this stuff out and let me know how it works for you below. The good or the bad. I WANT to hear it.\nThat guy above didn\u2019t have to the opportunity to meet or talk to me and I honestly feel bad for him because I\u2019ve been far worse than him.\nThink about what he did.\nHe succeeded at getting some \u201chot\u201d bartender\u2019s real number and talked to her for a while. That\u2019s something most guys wouldn\u2019t dare doing knowing how many sober and drunk guys hit on her all night long \u2013 five days week!\nImagine what he COULD learn and achieve with confidence like that IF he had this kind of information you now have along with all the links above.\nWouldn\u2019t been a whole different story but of course I would have to find something else to write about \u2013 guess that might\u2019ve sucked.\nSign up below \u2013 read Chapter One. Stop back and let me know what you think of it.\nThe article is posted in these Categories: Her Tests, Mistakes, Techniques\nNext post: Survey \u2013 Why Women Are Attracted To Jerks & Bad Boys, How Nice Guy Can Do It Too",

The ideal Jotwell review will not merely celebrate scholarly achievement, but situate it in the context of other scholarship in a manner that explains to both specialists and non-specialists why the work is important.\nAlthough critique is welcome, reviewers should choose the subjects they write about with an eye toward identifying and celebrating work that makes an original contribution, and that will be of interest to others. First-time contributors may wish to consult the Jotwell Mission Statement for more information about what Jotwell seeks, and what it seeks to achieve.\nReviews need not be written in a particularly formal manner. Contributors should feel free to write in a manner that will be understandable to scholars, practitioners, and even non-lawyers.\nOrdinarily, a Jotwell contribution will\nbe between 500-1000 words;\nfocus on one work, ideally a recent article, but a discussion of a recent book is also welcome;\nbegin with a hyperlink to the original work \u2014 in order to make the conversation as inclusive as possible, there is a strong preference for reviews to focus on scholarly works that can be found online without using a subscription service such as Westlaw or Lexis.

        "raw_content": "The Namibian desert town of Swakopmund\u2019s breathtaking natural beauty and captivating German architecture serves as a reminder of its diverse history of the area.\nApart from relishing in the history and stark beauty of the Swakopmund, here are eight things to do during your next trip to Swakopmund.\nExperience Namibia from the sky\nThere are a number of daytime scenic flights that travellers may experience and is undoubtedly one of the best ways in which to experience the full magnitude of the Namibian desert.\nThe living dunes of Swakopmund\nExplore a living desert\nThere are various tours which delve deeper into the life behind the desert, which is unique for its arid conditions as there\u2019s so much to experience and explore. Day tours transport travellers to an area of which there is an abundance of desert life and weird and wonderful desert fauna.\nHalf and full day tours to Sandwich Harbour\nSandwich Harbour forms part of the Namib Sand Sea area which is a UNESCO World heritage site. It formed a large unique fresh water harbor of yesteryear and today it can only be accessed at certain times of the day (due to ocean tides) by 4x4.\nThere are options to go on excursions to this area either from Swakopmund and Walvis Bay and it\u2019s said to be a mecca for photographers and tourists wishing to experience the desolation and history of the Skeleton Coast.\nVisit dolphins, seals and whales with various ocean cruises\nThere are daily cruises which leave from the either Swakopmund and Walvis Bay into the icy Atlantic waters where a world of ocean life awaits. This is an unforgettable opportunity of seeing dolphins up close and personal as well as seals and various varieties of whales.\nIt\u2019s widely regarded to be a highlight when visiting this part of Namibia. A lucky few might even get a glimpse of the rare sunfish (Mola Mola). Some of these luxurious ocean cruises will offer a complimentary glass of champagne, oysters and snacks as a great end to a magical day.\nFat bike tours in Namibia takes you over more strenuous terrain such as a desert.\nA fat bike is an ingenious new design on the traditional mountain bike that enables one to venture over more strenuous terrain such as a desert. It\u2019s also a far more eco-friendly way to travel around the desert then using 4x4s or motorbikes. This is largely due to the thickness of the tyres of the bike itself.\nQuadbiking over the sand dunes in Swakopmund, Namibia.\nAnother great way to experience desert life is quad biking and there are various options for this in Swakopmund to suit all ages and experiences. One can go for as little as one hour but it\u2019s advised to do a half day or full day tour to really get into desert culture.\nSandboarding is a popular attraction for travellers visiting Swakopmund.\nSince Namibia is a land of sand, sandboarding has naturally started to take off as a popular recreational activity for tourists and locals alike. Namibia is one of the best destinations to sandboard on the entire African continent and its considered to be an absolute highlight when passing through Swakopmund.\nNamibia's towering Spitzkoppe.\nSpitzkoppe excursions\nThis area is well known for its out of this world landscape which will transport you to apart of Namibia that might even resemble planet Mars. A photographer\u2019s mecca the area is also highly popular for its unique vegetation and Bushmen paintings.\nA vast variety of bird species can also be viewed in the area and they even have certain types of wildlife.

Photos / Supplied\nGROWTH IS THE BEST IN TWO DECADES, WRITES JAMES WONG\nThe boss of sportscar maker Lotus has pointed to the year 2020 for a new-generation Elise that will stay true to its roots as a lightweight sports car, according to a new report.\nBolstered by relatively strong sales of the new Evora 400, along with growing orders for the latest Elise and Exige models, Lotus is poised to return to profit in 2017 \u2013 for the first time in 20 years.\nIt\u2019s that growth that is allowing the company to push forward with the development of a next-generation Elise.\nSince its introduction in 1996, the Elise pioneered the use of extruded aluminium chassis technology, which serves as the basis for all of the current Lotus range.\nAccording to British website Autocar, Lotus chief Jean-Marc Gales has confirmed the new car will be ready at the end of the decade.\nGales said the next-generation car will stay true to its lightweight roots, something other companies have tried to replicate but not mastered.\nThe Lotus Elise S club racer.\n\u201cThe Elise chassis has often been copied but never equalled,\u201d he told Autocar.\n\u201cCombine that with the steering feel and you have something truly special. The DNA of that car is its light weight, its steering feel, [and] the balance of power and drivability.\u201d\n\u201cAt every price point [the Elise] is sold in, it is the fastest car for the money \u2013 and always the most special to drive,\u201d said the Lotus boss.\nWeight reduction will continue to be a central focus for the new car\u2019s underpinnings, a notion carried down from the days of Lotus founder Colin Chapman.\n\u201cIt is a philosophy we want to continue, no matter what car we build,\u201d Gales said.\nThe new Elise is believed to have a target weight of 900kg, which is a fairly significant bulk over the original S1-model\u2019s featherweight 725kg \u2014 although the recently-revealed hardcore Elise Cup 250 weighs 921kg.\nChallenges of building such a light car include modern crash-test regulations, which may force the company to make the new Elise wider than the current model to incorporate side airbags and other crash structures.\nThe design of the new model is likely to be an evolution of the formula from the original car\u2019s look penned by Julian Thompson two decades ago, keeping the Elise\u2019s familiar shape and design elements, such as the quad-circle tail-lights.\nOther rumours include the possible switch to power-assisted steering, and the addition of an automatic gearbox \u2014 thanks to the brand\u2019s push into the US.\nBoth the manual and automatic transmissions would be sourced from Toyota, along with the car\u2019s powerplant. Lotus currently employs a reworked Toyota-sourced 1.8-litre four-cylinder in all Elise models \u2014 naturally-aspirated and supercharged.\n\u201cThe Toyota engine isn\u2019t just proven as a great engine for the Elise across a variety of power outputs, it also has tremendous reliability,\u201d Gales said. \u201cWe have invested a lot in the [relationship with Toyota] and it is really successful.\u201d\nIt\u2019s believed the US sales of the larger Evora are mostly autos, which could prompt the brand to bolster its sportscar line-up with self-shifters to cater to a currently untapped market. Gales believes a target of 3000 sales is achievable by 2020, considering the company is expecting to notch up 2000 units in the 12 months from April 2016. \u201cIt has been a long time since we have had so many orders in the bank \u2014 certainly more than [in the last] 10 years,\u201d he said.\n\u201cDemand in Europe is strong and we already have 250 orders for the Evora 400 in the US.\u201d\nThis latest news of an all-new Elise comes more than five years after former Lotus boss Dany Bahar revealed plans for a new range of Lotus models. Bahar was sacked in 2012, however, and his plans were thrown out with him. It\u2019s unclear if this new Elise will look anything like the concept revealed in 2010 but it is likely Lotus will forge a new direction under design boss Russell Carr \u2014 sacked by Bahar in 2009 but returned under Gales in 2014.",

        "raw_content": "Three Actions to Take When Submitting Internship Applications\nI have been the director of several internship programs for more than 20 years now. I have reviewed thousands of applications from students at all academic levels. What is striking to me is that I see the same mistakes year after year. Different applicants, same mistakes.\nHere are three actions students should take when applying for internship programs.\n1. QUALIFY- Read all qualification criteria carefully. Do not apply for internships for which you clearly do not qualify. If you are not sure if you qualify, read additional materials or contact the internship organizers. Applying to internships requires a lot of time and effort. Don't waste your time if you do not fit ALL the criteria for acceptance into a program. Rarely, if ever, do programs make exceptions to their entry criteria. Here are some examples of entry criteria that applicants often try to sidestep or ignore:\nGPA- Many programs, such as those funded by the National Institutes of Health, require that interns have a grade point average of 3.0 or above. This is non-negotiable. Some programs even require a 3.0 GPA in the student's major, so trying to increase your GPA by taking irrelevant classes does not get you closer to being accepted into these programs. If your GPA is lower than 3.0 and you want to qualify for these kinds of internship programs, consider receiving tutoring or repeating some courses in the summer and try again the following year.\nStart/End Dates- Summer programs can have firm start/end dates that do not necessarily fit with your school's schedule. This is important because summer programs may require commitment to specific dates for important reasons such the need for interns to attend orientation, group training sessions, or a need for coordination with mentors' schedules. Understandably, this is very frustrating for potential applicants whose home institutions require summer activities. However, accepting a scholarship or internship, especially those that are paid or particularly competitive, require a commitment from participants. Before applying, review your calendar and make sure that you can actually be available for the dates required in the internship program. If not, check with your school advisers to see if they can give you special permission to attend the internship, if you are accepted. If so, get their agreement in writing.\nPrevious Training Requirements- Some internships may require that you already have certain skills. For example, if you are applying for a summer program on big data, do you need to have certain computer programming skills before attending? If you don't have those skills yet, will you be enrolled in a course prior to the start of the program? Are you likely to learn the skills required before the summer? Be honest with yourself about your strengths and weaknesses. Misrepresenting or exaggerating your level of training can seriously backfire if you are accepted into a program and don't do well. Strive to enter internship programs that are challenging, but within reach for you based on your current training level.\nSocioeconomic Status Requirements- A few programs are intended to address issues of under-representation of individuals that are socioeconomically disadvantaged on the basis of race, ethnicity, income, gender, citizenship status or other criteria. Some of these socioeconomic criteria may only require self-identification while others may require documentation such as tax returns or passport. If you are in doubt as to whether you fit these kinds of criteria, you may want to contact the program organizers for clarification.\n2. VERIFY- Application forms for internship programs can be brief with only a few documents to submit, or extensive with requirements for essays, transcripts, letters of recommendation, etc. If the application platform allows, preview all forms and documents needed before you start the application process. This will allow you to estimate how much time it will take you to fill the application and verify what documents you may need to request or find before you start. If the application requires letters of recommendation or documents that you need to get from other people, make those requests first. That way, those documents will be in process, while you work on the application forms. No professor likes to get a call or email from a student requesting a letter of recommendation that is \"due tomorrow\"! Let them know with plenty of time that you will need their letters by a certain deadline.\nOnce you preview the application requirements, verify everything as follows:\nVerify That Your Responses Are Accurate- Make sure that all of your responses are accurate. Some common questions in which I have seen students not be quite accurate in their application forms are current GPA, the courses completed, dates of previous experiences, names of awards, etc. Inaccurate or false statements may get you in the door, as a finalist for a program, but nowadays many programs use verification services to check the information that you provide. You don't want to be the one that is caught in a lie, whether intentional or not.\nCheck and Double-Check- Review your resume, responses, and essays for typos and grammar. Don't only check for misspellings, but also for grammatical errors and accurate names. It helps to run your application through a grammar and spelling program before pasting it onto the application forms. It can also help to read it out loud to yourself or ask a friend to check it for you. It seems like a no-brainer, but I assure you it's not. I have received applications in which students misspelled their own name. I have received applications with sidebar comments or reminders that students intended to fix later, but forgot. And, my personal favorite error, applications directed to other programs. Every year, I get a few applicants that talk about how much they want to enter the program at Columbia or Yale, which would be fine, except that they are applying to my program at Mount Sinai. This happens because students cut/paste the same responses into different application forms. It is fine if you do that, but please, verify before you apply.\nAnswer the Questions- Strive to be clear and direct in your responses. Remember, selection committees are trying to find out whether you are likely to succeed in their program. Make it easy for them to read and understand your responses. For example, if you are asked to write an essay detailing your career interests, then talk about YOUR career interests. I have received many essays that read like a thesis on the subject with paragraph after paragraph on generalities about the topic of the internship. They tell me things that I already know. Instead, I want you to tell me why YOU are interested in this topic, what makes YOU good at this, what has been your experience in this area of work, and how you plan to pursue a career in this area in the future. Tell me how this internship will help you achieve your goals, and what you will bring to the program. Prove to me that you will succeed in the internship. Provide evidence and examples. Details like these make for a winning essay rather than one that sounds generic or like a page ripped out of any textbook.\n3. APPLY- Once you have determined that you qualify and you have verified that all your information is accurate, do not hesitate to apply. Don't be intimidated. Don't run out of steam. Although many internship programs are very competitive, you will not get 100% of the programs for which you don't apply. Send your complete application forms and all documentation on time before the deadline and you will have a chance.",

The interviews were conducted in Wollega, Ethiopia with four different informant groups: Children with hearing impairment (CWHI), their parents (Parents CWHI), Children with hearing (CWH), and their parents (Parents CWH). Altogether there were 24 informants: 10 children and 14 parents. All the interviews were transcribed, coded and analysed with the NVivo8 computer program and guided by Kvale\u2019s model (1996:189) \u201cSix Steps of Analysis\u201d.\nThe theoretical framework in this research was made from Bronfenbrenner (1979) and his socio-ecological approach and different researches made in the areas of attitudes, hearing impairment, sign language and communication.\nIn line with this; attitude as a concept is defined to be both positive and negative emotional reactions that are formed or caused by all the above-mentioned areas with strong attachments to beliefs and values in the religious and cultural setting in which a child grows up. Attitudes influence a person\u2019s self-esteem and how one looks upon oneself. The negative attitudes that the informants in this research talked about were: despise, dislike, hate, feeling sorry and pity. The informants also said that many hearing people are rude, mean, screaming insulting words, isolating and neglecting the hearing impaired child. They also face some positive attitudes, but the hearing impaired children in the study face more negative than positive attitudes from hearing people.\nCultural beliefs and norms are influential factors in the shaping of negative attitudes towards hearing impaired children to the extent of believing hearing impairment to be the expression of punishment from God for a past sin committed by a family member. In Ethiopia many people lack formal education and that also influences their attitudes towards hearing impaired children.\nLack of good communication between the hearing impaired children and their family and friends is also pointed out as another factor for the negative attitudes they face daily as they interact with hearing people at home or school. On the other hand good communication will have a positive influence to build up self-esteem in hearing impaired children.\nNongovernmental organisations, churches and government have contributed to an improvement of attitudes. Conclusions and recommendations are given about how to make the life of hearing impaired children better and easier. These changes should take place in the hearing impaired children\u2019s family, school, peer groups and society.",

        "raw_content": "In pneumatic systems, regular maintenance of all the components is of utmost importance so as to ensure that the system works at its complete potential. If not properly taken care of, frequent damages and breakdowns are bound to happen, and this will in turn reduce the life of the equipment and will incur additional costs.\nRegular maintenance will allows you to find the damaged or malfunctioning parts of the system and will also allow you to take timely measure for the same.\nThus, companies should ensure that they have a special team to manage the maintenance of the pneumatic systems and take steps to further enhance their knowledge about the latest in pneumatic systems to ensure adequate maintenance with the best and latest of knowledge.\nLet us have look at some of the aspects of regular maintenance of pneumatic systems.\nDesign of the Pneumatic System\nTo ensure that the maintenance efforts are delivering the required results, it is very important that your pneumatic system is designed with adequate knowledge by experienced professional designers.\nThe main problem with any pneumatic system is its pipeline and air layout. Thus the designer should give adequate important to the laying of the pipeline network and air flow to ensure that the risk of malfunctioning is minimal.\nAnother important thing while designing the pneumatic system is, that the system should be designed as simple as possible. The easier they are to handle the lesser the number of malfunctions.\nDuring maintenance too, proper inspection of the pipeline, airways and filters should be done to reduce the risk of breakdown. If the pipes, valves, cylinders, etc. are found to be defective, proper steps must be taken to repair or replace the parts. The maintenance schedule should be as such that it should give due importance to the areas that frequently malfunctions.\nOther problems like the resistance of flow or pressure drop is not witnessed that frequently, but they too should be checked regularly to further reduce the chances of breakdowns.\nImportance of Daily Maintenance\nYes, as compared to other mechanical systems, pneumatic systems is far better as far as the problems are concerned, but that doesn\u2019t mean that they do not require maintenance. Problems that do come up every now and then are not that difficult to resolve as other systems, but only when proper maintenance and care is taken.\nPneumatic systems result in less troubles only when the maintenance is carried out on a daily basis. Thus, daily maintenance is of utmost importance to ensure that the system runs in its best possible state.\nThere are a number of guidelines that can make the daily maintenance of pneumatic systems easier, let us check some of the guidelines:\nAlways ensure that you have an accurate circuit as well as the functional diagram of the pneumatic system. If any changes are made after installation, ensure that they are made in the directions as well.\nDo take care that the impulse valves of the system is protected from excess of dirt, mechanical shocks and cooling water.\nImprints of the elements and the units should be accurate and easily visible.\nThe valve openings that are given by the manufacturers should only be used.\nDo not drill the elements of the system for a new opening.\nIf you need an additional opening, discuss it with the manufacturer and they might design a custom system for you.\nThe service unit of the system should be clearly visible and easy to service. If possible, also ensure that it is placed higher that the other elements.\nDo not increase the throttle that what is needed and specified by the manufacturer.\nIf you are dismantling the cylinders or valves, do take care of its sealing materials. Even while assembling them again, ensure that they are properly placed.\nActuated valves, though appear easy to work with, but are known to cause serious problems. Thus, it is good to ensure that they are controlled in the proper direction and at the required speeds only.\nLeakage is another important and most common aspect of any pneumatic system. If left undetected for a long period, problems like enhanced load on the system, wastage of compressed air, increased maintenance and operating costs without fruitful results, and even the risk of loss in quality of production can be experienced.\nThough, it is a common problem and can be very devastating if left for a long period, air leakage is actually very easy to detect and stop.\nIt\u2019s easy due to the nature of air. It escapes by making noise, which makes it very easy to notice in any system. If the leakage is very small and is not making any sound of escaping air, try to apply soap water solution to the area.\nIf there is no leakage the soap water will remain as it is, but if there is an air leakage, it\u2019ll start producing air bubbles.\nOnce detected, you can simply tighten up the glands, fittings or the joints. If the leakage is major, you can think about completely replacing the damaged part with a new one. There are also many bonding products available in the markets that are especially designed for commercial use, you can even use them to eliminate the leakage.\nFilter Regulator Lubricator (FRL)\nIf the maintenance is well-planned and done by an expert on a daily basis, pneumatic systems are known to last for a very long time.\nThe major reasons like dirt, low lubrication oil, damage in the glands or valves etc. can be taken care of by ensuring the FRL of the system is in good condition.\nFRL is a component that is designed to prevent dirt from getting into the system and to also ensure that adequate amount of lubrication is available in the system at all times, so as the reduce the damage due to friction.\nThus, if the FRL is in good condition, whole pneumatic system can function flawlessly.\nEven though the pneumatic systems are less prone to problems, they do need maintenance on a daily basis. If there is a major breakdown, the person responsible for maintenance should locate the fault and try to understand the nature of the problem.\nIf it can be repaired, it should be done by following all the guidelines, or if it is something major the part should be replaced with a new one.\n1 comments On Pneumatic System \u2013 Everyday Maintenance\nDaily routine maintenance is the best way helps you maintain a good working condition for your entire operating system. Because the intelligent proactive maintenance strategy always tries to assess the \u201chealth\u201d of the machine through some detailed maintenance programs that combine diagnostics for the most crucial parts. So think carefully about your maintenance plan to get more in the future.\nThanks E-pneumatic for this sharing!",

        "raw_content": "Bungalow build blasted by councillors\nCouncillors objected to the proposed development off Vyces Road Picture: GOOGLE MAPS\nPlans to build 10 bungalows on a \u201cvery narrow\u201d road in Framlingham have been criticised by councillors and residents alike.\nThe proposals, put forward by Mr B Frenzel on behalf of Orchid Properties, are for 10 single-story properties in Vyces Road.\nPlanning permission to build five larger bungalows on the same site was previously granted \u2013 against the town council\u2019s wishes \u2013 however the plans have since been revisited and an alternative proposal for double the dwellings was filed in December.\nIn addition to the 10 bungalows, the developer intends to create 22 new parking spaces for residents.\nAt the full town council meeting on Thursday night, many members of the public expressed their concern about the proposals \u2013 arguing that the development could put pressure on parking and endanger the wildlife corridor.\nA number of councillors also criticised what they deemed to be \u201cover-development\u201d of the land.\nCouncillor John Simpson said: \u201cI am very familiar with Vyces Road \u2013 it\u2019s a very narrow road. The pavements aren\u2019t particularly good. I look at ladies bringing their children to school in the morning and quite often they are having to walk on the road.\u201d\nA number of public comments submitted to the town council also raised issues with traffic congestion, as well as threats to wildlife in the area.\nVeronica Singleton, of nearby Hermitage Court, said she \u201cstrongly\u201d objected to the proposed development.\n\u201cThis plot of land was never designated for development,\u201d she argued.\n\u201cIt was disappointing that local wishes were ignored when the original plan was submitted \u2013 it would be even worse to increase the amount of development on this site.\n\u201cVyces Road is a very narrow road, already congested by on-road parking, and is not suitable for additional traffic.\u201d\nFellow local resident Karen Maurice added: \u201cThere appears to be a garage and parking space allocated to each property but there is no provision for any visitor parking nor allowance for any second or third car for the household as is so typical nowadays.\n\u201cI am already concerned that emergency vehicles may struggle to get through and children crossing the road between parked cars is a hazard even before this Woodyard development arrives.\n\u201cThere are a huge variety of birds and wildlife in this area which will be massively impacted by this development. The new proposal strips all of these trees out specifically to make space for another property, something which I find unacceptable from a wildlife point of view as well as trying to maintain a natural rural feel to the area.\n\u201cThe town has undergone massive change with larger housing developments and it seems that out every green spot of land and every tree is being sacrificed.\u201d\nSumming up, vice chairman Simon Garrett said the council considered 10 dwellings to be \u201cexcessive on that land\u201d.\nThere was unanimous agreement among the councillors that they should object to the proposal.\nIt will now be considered by the planning committee at Suffolk Coastal District Council.",

        "raw_content": "By Judy D\u2019Mello | January 25, 2018 - 11:12am\nThe local nonprofit youth organization I-Tri has teamed up with Long Island Against Domestic Violence, New York State Assemblywoman Christine Pellegrino, and Suffolk County Legislator Kara Hahn to bring Tarana Burke, the #MeToo founder, to Stony Brook University on Sunday. The event, which is free to the public, will be dedicated to building support for the safety and empowerment of women and girls who live and work in Suffolk and Nassau Counties.\nAccording to a press release from I-Tri, an East Hampton program that fosters empowerment of middle school-age girls through triathlons, a series of meetings will be held with legislators, the public, and students, to discuss how to best advocate eliminating the sexual abuse that affects women and children living and working on Long Island.\nThe day will begin with a student breakfast with Ms. Burke, a civil rights advocate who promotes empowerment through empathy and created the MeToo movement in 2006 to raise awareness of the pervasiveness of sexual abuse and assault. She is now a senior director at Girls for Gender Equality, a Brooklyn nonprofit.\nFollowing the breakfast, a closed legislators round-table with Ms. Burke will take place from 10:15 a.m. to noon. Approximately 30 local elected officials and politicians are expected to attend.\nFinally, a public forum with Ms. Burke will be held in the university\u2019s student activity center from 2 to 3:30 p.m. The discussion will focus on how young people can make lasting social and cultural changes and will be led by girls in the I-Tri program. Because the 600-seat auditorium is already sold out, the program will be broadcast live on Facebook.\nTheresa Roden, the founder and executive director of I-Tri, said, \u201cThis event couldn\u2019t be more timely. We strive to empower young women, and the three alumnae who will facilitate the conversation onstage with Ms. Burke are a testament to those efforts.\u201d\n\u201cI hope this event is a spark that will help spread this movement throughout Long Island and take the conversation to the next level,\u201d State Assemblywoman Pellegrino said. \u201cI\u2019m happy to add my voice to the chorus of courageous women and men who speak out against this predatory behavior and envision a world where sexual harassment and assault are no longer.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "D.C. Bill Bars Credit Check for Prospective and Current Employees\nAct Now Advisory January 25, 2017 Brian Steinbach, Nancy L. Gunzenhauser, Judah L. Rosenblatt\nOn December 20, 2016, the Washington D.C. Council unanimously passed the \u201cFair Credit in Employment Amendment Act of 2016\u201d (\u201cAct\u201d) (D.C. Bill 21-0244) which amends the Human Rights Act of 1977 to add \u201ccredit information\u201d as a trait protected from discrimination and makes it a discriminatory practice for most employers to directly or indirectly require, request, suggest, or cause an employee (prospective or current) to submit credit information, or use, accept, refer to, or inquire into an employee\u2019s credit information. The Act will take effect following approval by D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser, a 30-day period of congressional review per the District of Columbia Home Rule Act, and publication in the D.C. Register, and shall apply upon inclusion of its fiscal effect in an approved budget and financial plan.\nProhibited Inquiries and Actions\nThe Act will prevent most D.C. employers from using any method to inquire about an applicant or current employee\u2019s credit information for any reason, including, as part of the application, interview process, or background check. The Act defines \u201ccredit information\u201d as any written, oral, or other communication of information bearing on an employee\u2019s creditworthiness, credit standing, credit capacity, or credit history. Unlike District of Columbia\u2019s Ban-the Box-Legislation, which only limits the timing of when employers can request criminal conviction information (upon a contingent offer of employment), the Act prohibits the use of credit information with respect to any employment decisions, unless an exemption applies.\nThe Act provides seven exemptions under which employers may still request and obtain credit information:\nwhere the employer is otherwise required by District law to (a) require, request, suggest, or cause any employee to submit credit information, or (b) use, accept, refer to, or inquire into an employee\u2019s credit information;\nwhere an employee is applying for a position as or is employed as a police officer, including campus police officers, and other positions with a law enforcement function;\nemployees of the Office of the Chief Financial Officer of the District of Columbia;\nwhere an employee is required to possess a security clearance under District law;\ndisclosures by District government employees of their credit information to the Board of Ethics and Government Accountability, or the Office of the Inspector General, or to the use of such disclosures by those agencies;\nfinancial institutions,[1] where the employee\u2019s position involves access to \u201cpersonal financial information\u201d;[2] or\nwhere an employer requests or receives credit information pursuant to a lawfully issued subpoena, court order or, law enforcement investigation.\nThe Act applies to all D.C. employers, employment agencies, and labor organizations. It applies to all individuals employed in D.C. and decisions regarding employees made by D.C. employers. This law does not appear to apply to independent contractors.\nThe D.C. Office of Human Rights (\u201cOHR\u201d) will investigate charges of violations of the Act.

There are many different grades of whetstones but the sheer amount of information may dissuade some people from ever sharpening knives themselves. But for the average chef we\u2019d recommend 3 basic whetstones. The 3 types of whetstones you should have is 1000, 3000, and 8000 grit stones. Ideally, we suggest using a 1000 grit first and then finishing with the 3000 grit and then the 8000 grit finish. The 1000 grit stone is a must-have stone and if you don\u2019t have a large budget, it would still work. However if you are only using a\u2026\nSG-2 and R-2 SG-2 and R-2 SG-2 stands for Super Gold 2 and was developed by Takefu Special Steel Co. based in Echizen, Japan. Originally, Takefu Special Steel developed the Super Gold steel but further developed and enhanced their powdered steel metallurgy to develop Super Gold 2. The Super Gold series is based on a modern cutting-edge powdered steel metallurgy that allows for the production of unique materials impossible to get from melting or forming in other ways. SG-2 contains the following amounts of the elements: Carbon: 1.25 \u2013 1.45%, Vanadium: 1.80 \u2013 2.20%, Chromium: 14.00 \u2013 16.00%, Molybdenum: 2.30\u2026\nA knife is only as strong as its steel. While steel, in general, is an alloy of iron and carbon, it can take many different forms depending on what else the iron and carbon is combined with \u2014 along with how the steel is forged and what type of deoxidization process is employed. At the basic level, steel that is used for forging knives falls into three main categories: high carbon steel, stainless steel, and semi-stainless steel. Below you will learn more about how each is classified, and what benefits as well as drawbacks each might have. High Carbon Steel:\u2026\nOften times our customers ask us a question, \u201cCan I use a honing rod to sharpen my Yoshihiro Knife?\u201d The answer is No, a resounding No. Let me explain why. A honing rod is commonly used in Western kitchens, to maintain the sharpness of a knife by scraping its blade edge against the honing steel. This is because the blade steel used in Western knives is soft, making the edges curl easily and requires daily maintenance to realign. The softness of the steel derives from the alchemy developed in old-time Europe, and knives such as German inherit this feature. This\u2026\nhigh carbon steelhigh carbon steel Steel is a compound of iron and carbon. Yet to be classified as high-carbon steel, it needs to have anywhere from 0.6% to 1.7% carbon by weight. For premium cutlery and knives, the higher carbon content is typically better. For one, higher carbon allows for a sharper cutting edge. To be considered stainless steel, the steel must have a chromium content of more than 12%. While all steel contains carbon, typically steels that do not contain chromium are referred to as carbon steels. high carbon steel The differences between high carbon steel can be subtle,\u2026\nWhen it comes to knife making, the Japanese have a long-standing belief of practicality. They value usability, meaning that traditionally the Japanese have made knives according to purpose. A specific knife would be made for every task. While all of these knives have the same single-edged blade anatomy, they differ in areas of shape, size, and thickness of the blade \u2014 all for the purposes of their tasks at hand. Here are the three traditional Japanese knives we recommend that all chefs need for chopping vegetables, fileting and slicing fish: Yanagi Knife Sashimi Knife | Cutting and Slicing Fish Yanagi knives\u2026\nAnatomy Japanese Single Edged Knives Anatomy Japanese Single Edged Knives Traditionally, Japanese knives were single bevel, and featured the same grind with three key parts: the shinogi surface, the urasuki, and the uraoshi. It wasn't until Japan began modernizing in the late 19th century and early 20th century \u2014 and when they began incorporating western culture in to theirs \u2014 that they started crafting double beveled knives. The Japanese have continued to forge beautiful, sharp, and strategically designed single-edged knives that make slicing and dicing more efficient for any chef. To better understand how this is done, let\u2019s explain the\u2026\nThe bevel of a knife is one of the most important aspects that help to define its sharpness, strength, durability, and use. To put it simply, a bevel is the ground angle and shape of the blade\u2019s edge, and depending on what it\u2019s made of and how it\u2019s ground, it can dictate the type of knife you have. Traditionally, the Japanese have knives that fall into two categories of bevels: a double bevel, or a single bevel. It\u2019s common to also hear this referred to as a doubled-edged blade or a single-edged blade. Double Bevels: A double-bevel knife, or double-edged\u2026\nWhether Japanese or German, each type of knife has been influenced by its culture. The Japanese believe in having a perfect tool for an explicit purpose, and as such have many specific knives for specific tasks. Meanwhile, Germans value versatility and durability in their culinary efforts and therefore have designed knives that are good at many different undertakings. In the end, each knife has its own strengths and weaknesses. It\u2019s not that one style of knife is better than the other \u2014 it\u2019s just a matter of use and preference.

Today, the same could be said about a chef and his knife. The art of Japanese cutlery derived from the traditions of Japanese sword making. Many of the same techniques, designs, and skills have been passed on from generation to generation\u2014from the minds of the Japanese masters to the artisan workers. In fact, the city that was once known as the capital of samurai swords is now a hub for Japanese knife making. During the 1300s, a time of war and conflict for Japan, the government established\u2026",

        "raw_content": "University of Szczecin, Poland\nigita@wniez.pl\nABSTRACT. This paper focuses primary on the recently emerged notion of \u201cactive ageing\u201d and the strategies aiming at turning it into a crucial mechanism in societal and economic adjustment to population ageing. It begins by highlighting the demographic revolution described by population ageing, more and more longer human life expectancy at birth, old age dependency ratio and their consequences on workforce. It goes on to discuss the concept and rationale of active ageing and its relationships to labor force. Then it outlines the basic principles on which policies on active ageing at work setting should be based and key elements of a strategy to implement it. The core of the active ageing policies is to enable people to continue to work according to their capacities and preferences, and to prevent or delay disabilities and chronic diseases that are costly to individuals, families and the health care system. This would also help to offset the rising costs in pensions and income security schemes as well as those related to medical and social costs.\nNext, the focus of the paper moves to the organizational level and the elements of an age management approach are discussed. It is stressed that a strategy of active ageing will enable ageing workers to have a stronger impact on their later life careers as well as on their health. At the macro level, if increased numbers of healthy older people were to extend their participation in the work force (through either full or part-time employment), their contribution to public revenues would continuously increase. The main reference point for this paper is Europe.\nJEL Classification: J1, P2\nKeywords: labour force, ageing society, active ageing concept, demographic transformation, organisational initiative.",

I wasn\u2019t running away from anything, but rather felt I needed to run toward something I had only ever really seen in John Wayne movies, on Sierra Club calendars, and on occasional vacations to Yosemite or the Grand Tetons. Eventually I felt a pull back\u2014to family, and to urbanity\u2014and returned to the East Coast to pursue a graduate degree. However, once back in the city, I felt anew the pull of the mountains, the pull of wildness. And so, soon after I finished my degree, I said goodbye to my family once again and headed West, but this time I continued all the way to the damp and verdant mountains of the Pacific Northwest.\nIt has always been like this\u2014whether it\u2019s my brain or my soul or my heart calling the shots, I am constantly pulled between urbanness and wilderness, between the human and the more-than-human world. While I could certainly do without the suburbs (and believe that the world could too), I am in love with both the wildness of the city and the wildness of the mountains, the forests, and the coastlines. My own ecotone is someplace between these two loves, and over time, I have learned that I don\u2019t need to fret over the contradiction or untangle the paradox. I am lucky enough to now have access to both landscapes, and am hoping to establish an urban homestead in a small Pacific Northwest city where wildness lives in my own backyard in the form of chickens, opossums, hawks, ferns, and crabbed apple trees. Of course there\u2019s that bigger wildness too\u2014the one that resides in our collective backyard. It is that vast wildness that comes up to the doors of our human homes\u2014be they in cities or suburbs or wild lands\u2014and calls us out to play.\nStephen Siperstein is a poet, literary scholar, and environmental educator, and is currently a PhD candidate in the Department of English at the University of Oregon.

        "raw_content": "Corporate Canada\nIt's Time to Step Up to Define and Tell the Brand Canada Story\nLisa Kimmel, President and CEO, Edelman Canada\nThe story of Canada is one that has historically been a bright spot in the Northern Hemisphere. With a well-educated population, a stable financial services sector and regulatory system, as well as competitive corporate tax rates, we\u2019ve always punched above our weight, and have enjoyed a history of attracting high-paying investments from companies who value our highly-skilled workforce, safe cities and inclusive society.\nLast year changed the game. The new U.S. administration had a mandate to introduce a protectionist agenda to address an economy that has limped along for the last 10 years. This agenda has included deep corporate tax cuts and a push to repatriate capital \u2013 and jobs \u2013 to the U.S., namely by tightening up trade agreements. Canadians have become understandably worried that we\u2019re going to move from a period of extraordinary economic growth to a financial slowdown, with business investment and productivity continuing to decline, exacerbated by hikes in the minimum wage and electricity prices in Ontario, as well as increased regulation.\nSome prominent Canadians are arguing that Canada must immediately address the erosion of our competitive position with the U.S.; that we cannot continue to persist with tax rates and regulations that sharply diverge from our neighbour to the south if we are to attract investment and employment. Canadians will have to debate if we can drop taxes to U.S. levels and maintain our social safety net, but that will take time.\nFortunately, there is another chapter to pen in this story, and it\u2019s one we can control immediately. Despite the current economic realities, we are still a country that\u2019s respected around the world. These measures of societal good \u2013 from our inclusiveness to our well-educated citizens and beyond \u2013 are key elements of our brand as a country, and it\u2019s catapulted global companies headquartered here to become the most trusted in the world, according to this year\u2019s Edelman Trust Barometer. That trust afforded to \u2018Brand Canada\u2019? It\u2019s an opportunity \u2013 but only if we act on it.\nIt is helpful that Prime Minister Trudeau proudly waves the flag. However, this is a chapter that Corporate Canada must write. Historically, business has ignored the core attributes of Brand Canada in favour of a focus on strong financial performance. But this can no longer be the case with the current economic realities that we face, from the newly-introduced U.S. tax reforms, to a questionable future with NAFTA, to lack of progress on the Canada-China trade talks, and so forth. As Andrew Coyne correctly points out, \u201cWhat are we doing to compensate on other fronts? You can only boast about how well our banking sector survived the financial crisis so many times.\u201d\nWith increasing demands that businesses look beyond the short-term interests of shareholders, Corporate Canada needs to do a better job of defining what Brand Canada is, and must take the lead in telling that story. It\u2019s not just a race to the bottom to try and match U.S. tax rates; it\u2019s about making a stronger case for Canada by competing on our values and our sense of purpose. As Larry Fink wrote in his annual letter to CEOs: \u201cWithout a sense of purpose, no company, either public or private, can achieve its full potential. It will ultimately lose the license to operate from key stakeholders\u2026Companies must ask themselves: What role do we play in the community? How are we managing our impact on the environment? Are we working to create a diverse workforce? Are we adapting to technological change?\u201d\nAs noted in the Trust Barometer, 64 per cent of the global general population say CEOs should take the lead on change rather than wait for government to impose it. Furthermore, companies must show commitment to the long term; 56 per cent agree that companies that only think about themselves and profits are bound to fail.\nA values-based commitment would lift Canada\u2019s position as an example to the world. We\u2019re already seeing how this approach can and does attract investment: Amazon Canada recently shortlisted Toronto for its second headquarters, and our bid touted openness to immigration, a well-educated and diverse talent pool, our high quality of life without having to offer tax incentives or other financial subsidies.\nBusiness leaders of Canadian-headquartered firms can no longer ignore what must be done to continue to grow and prosper despite the economic uncertainty swirling around us. Beyond themselves, they should also consider engaging employees born outside of Canada or who have extensive family networks abroad to forge connections around the world and share the Brand Canada story.\nWe must remind customers, employers, suppliers and foreign corporations and governments about the Canadian brand advantage, what we stand for as a nation and society and why they should have confidence in doing business with us. When Canadian business leaders do step up to better define and tell the Canadian story, together we\u2019re bound to create the positive conclusion we\u2019re all seeking.",

We encounter differences like age, gender, sexual orientation, ethnicity, nationality, ability, and many others. The value which we ascribe to these differences determines our approaches to managing diversity not only in our private but also professional lives. Leadership for diversity, equality and inclusion is identified as an essential ingredient to achieve positive changes across all domains of life. Thus, this year the Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) Conference 2010 will focus on \u2018Leadership for Equality, Diversity and Inclusion at Work\u201d.\nThe conference will provide for academics, policy makers and practitioners an inter- and transdisciplinary as well as an international platform for explorations, syntheses and discussions of leadership for equality, diversity and inclusion at work. There will be academic and doctoral sessions as well as sessions for practitioner and policy making interests at the conference. This year's conference will be held at the Vienna University of Economics and Business (WU).\nStella Nkomo, Professor for Human Resource Management (University of Pretoria, South Africa), will deliver one of the keynote speeches at the conference and highlight leadership for equality, diversity and inclusion in the South African context. On the same day, Lize Booysen, Professor for Organisational Behaviour and Leadership (Antioch University, USA), will focus on diversity perspectives in leadership in her keynote.\nThere are 17 streams and several workshops planned as part of the conference. There is also a doctoral colloquium, which allows research students to discuss methodological and subject specific issues in studying equality, diversity and inclusion at work. Policy makers and practitioner sessions are also planned.\nEDI Conferences are coordinated and supported by DECERe (Diversity and Equality in Careers and Employment Research) at the University of East Anglia. Emerald Press sponsors two best paper awards at the conference. The Vienna University of Economics and Business hosts the conference and the Gender and Diversity Management Group (Department of Management) is the local organizer. Orgics Ltd provides logistic support to the conference.\nThe inaugural EOI conference was held in 2008 at the University of East Anglia, UK, and focused on multiple strands of equality, diversity and inclusion at work. It was organised by DECERe, University of East Anglia, Norwich, UK and it hosted 80 participants from 21 countries. The second EOI, held in Istanbul, Turkey, hosted already 125 participants from 30 countries. The participants discussed equality, diversity and inclusion in times of global crisis. This year the organizers hope to increase the number of participants further, due to the significance of the issue of leadership as well as the very attractive conference venue in Vienna.",

        "title": "The disadvantages of gel electrophoresis |",
        "raw_content": "The disadvantages of gel electrophoresis\nChristopher Robison Updated July 20, 2017\nGel electrophoresis is a technique where biological molecules are separated from each other and identified in biological research or medical diagnostics. Since their development in the 1970s, these techniques have been invaluable in identifying genes (DNA) and gene products (RNA and protein) of research interest. In recent years, newer techniques have emerged that give greater specificity and detail about what is happening in living systems. While these have not supplanted electrophoresis techniques, and advanced manipulations can expand the viability of the technique, it is important to realise what gel electrophoresis can and cannot do.\nElectrophorresis Has Limited Sample Analysis\nElectrophoresis is specific to whatever tissue you've sampled. For instance, if you run a Southern blot (a type of electrophoresis) on a cheek swab, you're looking at genes from the epithelial cells of your cheek and nowhere else in your body. At times, this can be beneficial, but researchers are frequently interested in more widespread effects.\nTechniques such as in situ hybridisation (ISH) can take a section of tissue and analyse gene expression at each small area of that sample. Thus, researchers can look at every brain area in a sample with ISH, whereas electrophoresis techniques can only look at a few areas at a time.\nElectrophoresis Measurements Are Not Precise\nGel electrophoresis can effectively separate similar proteins with different weights (this is a technique called Western blotting). It can separate them more precisely through a technique known as 2d electrophoresis; this is common in proteomics.\nUnfortunately, all of the measurements made from this technique are semi-quantitative at best. In order to obtain the precise mass (weight) of proteins, mass spectroscopy must be employed after the protein has been purified by electrophoresis. Furthermore, comparing the relative amounts of different molecules relies on the band density (darkness) of different spots on the gel. This method has some degree of error, and samples are usually run multiple times to get clean results.\nSubstantial Starting Sample is Required\nElectrophoresis is a technique of isolating and visually identifying different biomolecules. This is done by passing an electrical current through the gel to separate charged molecules of different weights. If the molecule you're interested in isn't common enough, its band will be virtually invisible and difficult to measure.\nDNA and RNA can be amplified somewhat before running electrophoresis, but it isn't practical to do this with proteins. Therefore, a large tissue sample is needed to run these assays. This can limit the usefulness of the technique, especially in medical analysis. It's virtually impossible to run electrophoresis on samples from a single cell; flow cytometry and immunohistochemistry are more commonly used to assess cell-by-cell expression of proteins. A technique called PCR is excellent at precisely measuring tiny amounts of RNA.\nOnly Certain Molecules Can Be Visualized\nElectrophoresis is excellent at separating and identifying medium- to large-sized biomolecules. However, many of the molecules that researchers wish to look at are smaller; small hormones, neurotransmitters, and ions cannot be measured by electrophoresis. This is for two reasons: they don't properly react with the electrophoresis preparation (usually a technique called SDS PAGE) and, even if they did, they are too small to separate properly and would rush out the bottom of the gel. These molecules are instead measured by techniques such as RIAAs (radio immunoassays) and ELISAs (enzyme-linked immunosorbant assay).\nElectrophoresis is Low Throughput\nGel electrophoresis is generally low throughput, meaning it doesn't produce data especially rapidly. Contrast electrophoresis, where you can look at a small handful of RNA molecules at a time, with PCR (polymerase chain reaction), which can simultaneously assess thousands of samples. Similarly, flow cytometry can take measurements from thousands of individual cells and make complex correlations, while electrophoresis looks at cells en masse and cannot make such fine discriminations. PCR and flow cytometry represent massively parallel and serial processes respectively, and both far outstrip the abilities of electrophoresis to generate research data.\nMolecular Station: \"Agarose Gel Electrophoresis\"\nJournal of Chromatography B; \"Effectiveness and limitation of two-dimensional gel electrophoresis in bacterial membrane protein proteomics and perspectives\"; Keigo Bunai, et al.; February 5, 2005\nMethods in Biotechnology; \"Polyacrylamide Gel Electrophoresis: Advantages and Disadvantages\"; September 20, 2009\nUCD BioLabs: \"Demystifying SDS Page\"\nChristopher Robison worked as a lab technician for over a decade, writing technical and scientific documents as part of his job.

        "raw_content": "Hydroelectric power resources form regional clusters\nHydroelectric power generation resources are spread unevenly across North America. Some regions, like the Pacific Northwest, generate a significant amount of their electricity from hydro, while others have only limited hydro resources available.\nBetween 6-9% of U.S. electric generation was produced by hydropower between 1998 and 2009, depending on water availability. The size of hydroelectric power generators also varies; in fact, the largest plant in the United States is the hydroelectric plant at the Grand Coulee Dam in Washington, with a capacity of 7,079 MW. Although they are not pictured above, Alaska and Hawaii both have a small amount of hydro.\nThe inventory of U.S. hydroelectric generating plants consists mainly of three types of plants. Some conventional hydroelectric generators are incorporated into dammed reservoirs, providing them with a relatively reliable supply of water. Other conventional hydro plants are run-of-river, meaning they have no reservoir and their generating output is subject to changes in river flows. Unlike conventional hydro, pumped storage plants can function as energy storage. They have the ability to reverse their turbines, using power from the grid to force water into a reservoir, storing it there to generate electricity at a later time.\nA large portion of the power imported to the United States from Canada is also generated from hydro. In the East, hydro power from Quebec and Ontario is particularly important in serving Northeastern U.S. markets. In the Midwest, a transmission line delivers hydropower from Manitoba to the United States, with minimal contact with the rest of the Canadian grid along the way. In the Pacific Northwest, the Columbia and Snake River Basins are geological and topological units with abundant water availability and river flows on both sides of the border. The preponderance of hydroelectric capacity on the U.S. side of the border tends to limit the benefits of hydropower trade in that region.\nTags: electricity, hydroelectric, map, renewables",

Office space is important for both employees who spend most of their time in the company, as well as for the general impression that company leaves on clients and associates. In addition to sophisticated architecture, functionality and technical equipment, one of the key criteria for selecting an office space is the attractiveness of location. Successful and modern companies are always positioned in the center of all events.\nInfluence of location on the image of the company and its business is most prominent among firms that provide professional services such as law firms, auditors, IT companies and marketing agencies. However, due to the lack of adequate land, poor infrastructure and deficit of parking space in the center of Belgrade, even thecompanies that traditionally gravitate towards the city core, have been focusing on New Belgrade Central Business District.\nNevertheless, despite the lack of adequate office space in the center, the demand hasn't decreased for years. Large tenantslack modernoffice space, well-fitted for their needs, that provides additional facilities for employees, parking spaces and professional maintenance. The good news is that the very center of Belgrade will soon host an office building that meets all of the above requirements.\nBusiness Garden, the latest in a series of successful projects of Israeli companies \u201cAFI Europe\u201d and \u201cShikun & Binui Group\u201d, will be constructed up to the highest global standards in order to provide the tenants and employees with a pleasant and comfortable working environment, as well as with the flexibility and functionality of the office space.\nThe advantages of this office building are central city location, yet tucked away from the city bustle, connectivity to all key governmental and diplomatic institutions, courts, main city arteries and New Belgrade Business District, great visibility and access to parking spaces which is a rare commodity in downtown Belgrade.\nThe trend of modern business returns to the city center, be among the first to follow it.

        "raw_content": "HomeRole ModelsDr. Strive Masiwiya\nDr. Strive Masiwiya\nStrive Masiyiwa (born 29 January 1961) is a London based Zimbabwean businessman, entrepreneur, and philanthropist. He is the founder and executive chairman of diversified international telecommunications group Econet Wireless.\nMasiyiwa is a member of the Africa Progress Panel (APP), a group of ten distinguished individuals who advocate at the highest levels for equitable and sustainable development in Africa. As a Panel Member he facilitates coalition building to leverage and broker knowledge, and convenes decision-makers to influence policy for lasting change in Africa.\nHe has won numerous accolades and gained international recognition for his business expertise and philanthropy, and is considered one of Africa's most generous humanitarians. Masiyiwa has used his wealth to provide scholarships to over 100,000 young Africans over the past 20 years through his family foundation. He supports over 40,000 orphans with educational initiatives, as well as sponsoring students at universities in America, The United Kingdom, and China.\nMasiyiwa also funds initiatives in public health and agriculture across the African continent.\nStrive Masiyiwa was born in the African country of Zimbabwe on 29 January 1961. He attended primary school in Zambia before completing his secondary education in Scotland. He holds a degree in Electrical Engineering from the University of Wales.\nMasiyiwa's international board appointments include The Rockefeller Foundation, US Council on Foreign Relations International Advisory Board, the Asia Society, the Africa Progress Panel (APP), Alliance for a Green Revolution in Africa (AGRA), The Micronutrient Initiative of Canada, Grow Africa, The African Union's (AU) EBOLA Fund, Morehouse College Board, and The Pan African Strategic Institute.\nMasiyiwa also sits on two United Nations Advisory Panels and is the only African member of the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum's Committee on Conscience.\nLeadership and international accolades\nIn 1998, the World Junior Chamber of Commerce named Masiyiwa one of the \"10 most outstanding young leaders of the world\", an accolade previously bestowed to John Kennedy.\nIn 2003, a CNN Time magazine poll named Masiyiwa as one of the most influential business leaders in the world.\nIn 2012, President Barack Obama invited Masiyiwa and four other business leaders to attend the 38th G8 summit at Camp David to address them on strategies on how to increase food production and end poverty in parts of Africa.\nIn 2014 Fortune Magazine named Masiyiwa one of the 50 most influential business leaders in the world.\nIn September 2014, the Chair of the African Union (AU), Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma, asked Masiyiwa to help mobilise resources for Africa's response to the EBOLA outbreak. This was the first time The AU had asked a business leader to undertake such a role. Masiyiwa, with the help of other leaders, set up the first ever Pan African fund raising campaign known as #AfricaAgainstEbola Solidarity Fund.\nThe fund has raised millions of US dollars from the public using SMS donations, with contributions coming from many African countries. The donations enabled The AU to deploy the largest known contingency of African healthcare workers to combat the spread of the deadly pandemic.\nIn 2015 Forbes Magazine named Masiyiwa in the 10 Most Powerful Men in Africa list for 2015.\nIn 2015, the International Rescue Committee (IRC) awarded Masiyiwa the Freedom Award. The award is given annually to an individual who makes an extraordinary contribution towards supporting refugees and championing the causes of liberty, individual freedom, and dignity.\nAt the UN Global Leadership 2015 awards dinner in New York, USA; The Africa Against Ebola Campaign was recognised for their humanitarian contributions and outstanding work in response to the Ebola epidemic. Chairman of the Trust, Masiyiwa accepted the award on behalf the Africa Against Ebola Solidarity Trust.\nIn 2017 Fortune Magazine named Strive Masiyiwa number 33 in the World's Greatest Leaders list for 2017 along with Elon Musk and LeBron James.\nBusiness career and interests\nStrive Masiyiwa returned to his native Zimbabwe in 1984 after a 17-year absence. After working briefly as a telecoms engineer for the state-owned telephone company, he quit his job and set up his own company with the equivalent of US$75. In five years, he had emerged as one of the country's leading industrialists, having built a large electrical engineering business. The emergence of mobile cellular telephony led him to diversify into telecoms, but he soon ran into major problems when the Zimbabwean government of Robert Mugabe refused to give him a license to operate his business, known as Econet Wireless.\nMasiyiwa appealed to the Constitutional Court of Zimbabwe, on the basis that the refusal constituted a violation of \"freedom of expression\". The Zimbabwean court, then one of the most respected on the continent, ruled in his favour after a five-year legal battle, which took him to the brink of bankruptcy. The ruling, which led to the removal of the state monopoly in telecommunications, is regarded as one of the key milestones in opening the African telecommunications sector to private capital. The company's first cellphone subscriber was connected to the new network in 1998.\nMasiyiwa listed Econet Wireless Zimbabwe in July 1998 on the local stock exchange as gesture of thanks to reward the thousands of ordinary people who supported him during his long legal battles against the Zimbabwean government. Today, Econet Wireless Zimbabwe has gone on to become a major business that dominates the Zimbabwe economy. It is currently the second-largest company in Zimbabwe by market capitalisation.\nIn March 2000, Masiyiwa left Zimbabwe, never to return to the country, and moved first to South Africa, where he founded The Econet Wireless Group, a new and completely separate organisation to the listed Zimbabwean entity.\nHis main interest remained in telecoms. Some of the key businesses that he established with partners included Econet Wireless International, Econet Wireless Global, Mascom Wireless Botswana, Econet Wireless Nigeria (now Airtel Nigeria), Econet Satellite Services, Lesotho Telecom, Econet Wireless Burundi, Rwanda Telecom, Econet Wireless South Africa, Solarway, and Transaction Processing Systems (TPS). He also has interests in mobile operations in New Zealand, Bolivia, and Dominican Republic. The company he created is known to have operations and investments, in more than 20 countries, including the United Kingdom, US, Latin America, and New Zealand, United Arab Emirates, and China.\nAfter more than ten years in South Africa, Masiyiwa moved to London; however, he still retains significant business interests in South Africa.\nEconet Wireless Group (Econet)\nEconet Wireless (Econet) is a privately held global telecommunications company with business operations and investments in more than 20 countries in Africa, Latin America, The United Kingdom, Europe, China, United Arab Emirates (UAE), and New Zealand. The only listed entity is its Zimbabwean subsidiary. The Zimbabwean business is often mistaken as the holding company, because it is listed.\nMasiyiwa also has interests in the United States of America (USA). He has partnered with one of America's leading telecoms entrepreneurs, John Stanton, in a venture called Trilogy International Partners, which built New Zealand's third mobile network operator known as \"2 Degrees\". Masiyiwa's investment in Seattle based Trilogy International, have also helped him secure interests as an investor in Viva's Bolivia and Dominican Republic businesses. Masiyiwa also has a controlling interest in a company based in Vermont USA, that manufacturers nano fibre carbon products, called Seldon Technologies.\nOne of Masiyiwa's most successful ventures is the London-based privately held Liquid Telecom Group, Africa's largest satellite and fibre optic business spanning over 14 countries.\nOther activities of Econet include enterprise networks, financial services, renewable energy, television and media (Kwes\u00e9 TV).\nPhilanthropy and humanitarian initiatives\nMasiyiwa is generally recognised as one of the most prolific philanthropists to ever come out of Africa. He has used his own family fortune to build one of the largest support programs for educating orphans in Africa. At any given time his family foundations support and educate more than 40,000 children. Masiyiwa is also a member of the Bill Gates and Warren Buffett, initiative known as the Giving Pledge.\nMasiyiwa is also involved in supporting a diverse range of health issues including campaigns against HIV/AIDS, Cervical Cancer, malnutrition, and more recently EBOLA. He is an avid environmentalist and together with Sir Richard Branson founded the environmental group, the Carbon War Room.\nHe recently took over, from former UN Secretary General, Kofi Annan, the chairmanship of AGRA, an organisation that supports Africa's smallholder farmers. In 2013, he was appointed co-chair of Grow Africa, the investment forum for Africa's agriculture, which has helped mobilise over US$15 billion in investments for African agriculture.\nPersonal fortune\nThere are no reliable estimates of Masiyiwa's wealth, because the vast majority of his business investments are held in private businesses. The only publicly known information is that of his listed business in Zimbabwe, the country he left 15 years ago. Based on this, Forbes Magazine estimates put Masiyiwa's personal wealth at US$600 million. Ventures Africa recently estimated Masiyiwa to be worth over US$1.4 billion.\n\u00b7 1990 \u2013 Zimbabwean Businessman of the Year Award (youngest ever recipient of the award)\n\u00b7 1998 \u2013 Zimbabwean Manager and Entrepreneur of the Year Award.\n\u00b7 1999 \u2013 Junior Chamber International (JCI) \u2013 Ten Most Outstanding Young Persons of the World\n\u00b7 2002 \u2013 Times Global Business Influentials List.\n\u00b7 2003 \u2013 CNN/Time magazine Poll \u2013 15 Global Influentials of the Year.\n\u00b7 2010 \u2013 Builder of the Modern Africa Award\n\u00b7 2011 \u2013 Forbes Magazine \u2013 20 Most Powerful Business People in African Business.\n\u00b7 2011 \u2013 Times of London \u2013 25 Leaders of Africa's Renaissance Award.\n\u00b7 2012 \u2013 Invited by President Barack Obama to attend G-8 Summit at Camp David (G-8 Summit, Camp David)\n\u00b7 2014 \u2013 Fortune Magazine \u2013 50 most influential leaders in the world\n\u00b7 2015 \u2013 Forbes Magazine \u2013 10 Most Powerful Men in Africa list for 2015.\n\u00b7 2015 \u2013 African Business Awards \u2013 Lifetime Achievement Award.\n\u00b7 2015 \u2013 Brand Africa Awards \u2013 Lifetime Achievement Award.\n\u00b7 2015 \u2013 Freedom Award \u2013 International Rescue Committee.\n\u00b7 2017 \u2013 Fortune Magazine named Strive Masiyiwa number 33 in the World's Greatest Leaders list for 2017\nCulled from Wikipedia.com",

        "raw_content": "Spring in Cascadia\ncredit: emb\nTen days in the northwestern bit of the USA \u2013 a sort of slow-paced quick visit to a part of the world I\u2019ve wanted to see for so long.\nOn the way, I managed to spend five days with my friends Tim and Stephanie in Bellingham, hiked with my sister\u2019s friend, Marisa in Portland and talked with strangers on topics as varied as politics, love, and the proper rotation of corn crops in the Midwest.\nOn a bus to Bellingham, I sat next to a 60-year-old man from Wisconsin who declared himself a Trump voter. For him, the president was a \u201cstreet fighter,\u201d someone who would \u201cshake politics up.\u201d He had been married three times, first to a nurse who\u2019d \u201cpatched up men broken in Vietnam,\u201d the second to a liberal teacher with very different views to his own. His third wife, who he\u2019d been married to for 20 years, wouldn\u2019t let him talk politics in the house.\nLast week I perched on a rock in front of Annie Dillard\u2018s house and read Holy the Firm, which described the scene in front of me. I wondered what the point was, in sitting here reading a book about the view I could already see, but she answered my question almost as soon as I asked it:\n\u201cThe idea of a thing [is] always more real\u2026than the actual thing itself.\u201d\nI\u2019m still thinking about that one.\nWhile sat there, I met an 89-year-old woman who lived in the house below. She gave me a grapefruit orange and told me she\u2019d been 43 years clear of alcohol, since leaving her husband and running away with another alcoholic to Santa Fe. She eventually ditched him (in Santa Fe?) and moved to Lummi Island.\n\u201cAn Annie Dillard reader from England living in China, my my,\u201d she said, and patted my elbow. \u201cWell, you look healthy.\u201d\nClearly most Dillard fans who made the pilgrimage to her house were not healthy, or didn\u2019t look it. Before I left, she told me that we can get addicted to anything \u201ceven recovery.\u201d\nIn Portland, I met a homeless poet and heard his epic 7 minute poem about a Norse warrior in the Battle of Ragnar\u00f6k. His performance to me, over chai and breakfast in a greasy spoon, was one of the most powerful I have seen, complete with actions. As a college student he had been obsessed with Jim Morrison and the Grateful Dead. He used to perform his poetry with his long hair shook out over his face so he wouldn\u2019t have to see the audience.\nThis evening, I saw Regina Spektor sing at the Keller Auditorium in town. Walking home through the dark streets hung with blossom, humming bits of \u2018Samson\u2019 & \u2018Us\u2019, and reflecting on the trip, I think, it\u2019s not been bad at all. I even got to see the first Starbucks in Seattle, and with great pleasure took my business elsewhere to an excellent local crumpet shop. Maybe nothing is fully local any more in this world, but in this place it felt a lot like it could be.\nTomorrow I return to China for three more months before the move back to London in July. What I expected coming here I don\u2019t know \u2013 like Britain, America has been in the news so much for all the wrong reasons. What I have seen here is, yes, a divided country, but also searching self-examination and, in pockets, a fierce resistance.\nOn our walk through Forest Park this morning, Marisa told me about her work to develop sustainable communities and products. I wondered whether there was hope for a better future. She saw that there are many possible responses to the situation but that her approach has always been optimistic and positive. This is characteristic of her sunny nature. We were talking about the environment, but it could have been about any issue.\nThe James Baldwin film, I Am Not Your Negro, made the case that little has changed or improved in race relations in the 49 years since the death of Martin Luther King Jr. I cannot ignore the role race, religion, nationality and gender plays in all this, to an extent which I cannot fully understand, and of the way that it defines us.\nI picked up a zine in Seattle called Learning Good Consent. In it there was one bit that particularly struck a chord:\n\u201cConsent isn\u2019t inherently sexual. It\u2019s about communication, about working towards creating safe spaces.\u201d\nThis week, the overriding experience has not been of the great outdoors or the trendy cafes. It has been the conversations, held sat next to people on busses, standing in shops, in people\u2019s homes, through messages or phone calls. It sounds strange but I think there is an element of consent in all the interactions I have had. I have tried to be a safe space myself, to listen, ask questions and enjoy the process. The consent is a respect for the other person \u2013 for their right to their experiences, and their views, for their right not to talk to you if they wish. And I think, here\u2019s the hope; that it is through this that we make change. You don\u2019t know what change is being made when you start on that journey but you can only open yourself in some way and see what happens.\nAbout David Marshall\nDavid is a poet and teacher from Huddersfield in England, currently living in China. In 2016 he co-founded the bilingual zine IHOP (poets not pancakes!) and runs regular workshops for teachers and writers in Shanghai and London. He has been published online by Hot Tub Astronaut, Ink, Sweat & Tears and Ghost House Review.

        "raw_content": "Home Medicine Encyclopedias almanacs transcripts and maps Idarubicin\nIdarubicin is a medication that kills cancer cells.\nAs of 2001, idarubicin is approved to treat only one single cancer, acute myelocytic leukemia (AML) in adults. Recent research suggests that using idarubicin rather than the more traditional daunorubicin in treating AML results in higher rates of complete remission (CR) and longer survival for patients. CR is the total elimination of all diseased cells detectable following therapy. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has not approved idarubicin as treatment for acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL).\nMuch research involving idarubicin is now being conducted. Some of this has involved acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) as well as AML. For example, a recent study was conducted in patients with either AML or ALL who had received bone marrow transplantation and then relapsed. Patients received a combination of cytarabine , idarubicin, and etoposide , as well as a medicine called G-CSF (filgrastim ). This treatment achieved a high CR rate in these patients.\nAnother recent study looked at the use of idarubicin in children with AML. All of the children received cytarabine and etoposide. In addition, some of the children received idarubicin, while some received daunorubicin. Overall, patients in both groups fared equally well in terms of survival length. However, patients who had larger numbers of cells known as blasts (immature cells) tended to do better if they received idarubicin rather than daunorubicin. In addition, high-risk patients tended to do better with idarubicin than with daunorubicin. No subgroup of patients achieved better outcomes with daunorubicin than with idarubicin.\nIdarubicin is an antibiotic, although doctors do not use this drug to attack infections. Its only use is to kill cancer cells. It does so by affecting how the DNA of cancer cells work.\nIn the treatment of AML, 12 mg of idarubicin per square meter may be given over a period of two to three days every three weeks in combination with other medications. Patients with liver problems may be given lower doses than other patients receive. Idarubicin is not typically given by mouth, as an insufficient amount of the medication would be transported through the stomach wall if this were done. Rather, this medication is usually administered through an intravenous (IV) procedure. During this time, it circulates widely throughout the body.\nA new formulation of idarubicin has been developed. This permits idarubicin to be taken orally. However, this formulation is currently available only in France and only for older patients who are not good candidates for intensive intravenous treatment. There is little information currently available on the effectiveness of this oral formulation. The studies that have been performed suggest that it is less effective than other formulations of idarubicin.\nIdarubicin may be associated with excessive toxicity in patients with congestive heart failure, liver function characterized by a high bilirubin level, or prior chest radiation to the heart.\nLike daunorubicin and doxorubicin , idarubicin may adversely affect the patient's heart. However, doctors are not certain how much of the drug it takes to cause such harm and, therefore, how to limit dosage so that such harm is not caused. However, idarubicin appears to be less likely to cause heart damage than similar drugs such as daunorubicin and doxorubicin. Another serious side effect that limits how much of the drug is given to patients is its potential adverse effect upon the bone marrow, where blood cells are produced.\nIdarubicin may cause nausea and vomiting , baldness (alopecia ), and stomach problems. In addition, idarubicin may cause blistering if extravasation occurs. Extravasation is when chemotherapy gets outside of the vein during infusion. If this occurs, the drug may cause severe local pain, swelling, or tissue necrosis that may require plastic surgery.\nPatients receiving idarubicin in conjunction with certain other anticancer drugs may develop a type of leukemia. However, this is extremely rare.\nIn the few studies that have been conducted on the oral formulation of idarubicin, the most prominent side effects seen are low blood cell counts, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea , and hair loss.\n\u2014A pigment produced when the liver processes waste products. A high bilirubin level causes yellowing of the skin.\n\u2014Immature cells\n\u2014Complete remission is the total elimination of all diseased cells detectable following therapy.\n\u2014The sum of the morphological changes indicative of cell death. It may affect groups of cells or part of a structure or an organ.\n\"Idarubicin.\" Gale Encyclopedia of Cancer. .

        "raw_content": "U.S. Supreme Court Agrees to Decide on Freedom to Marry\nCourt to bring national resolution on marriage equality for all Americans\n(January 16, 2015) Today, the U.S. Supreme Court agreed to hear a case challenging same-sex marriage bans in four states in the Sixth Circuit. A nationwide decision by the Court is expected by late June 2015.\nNadine Smith, CEO of Equality Florida, made the following statement:\n\u201cWe are thrilled that the Supreme Court's decision today brings us closer to national resolution granting the freedom to marry to same-sex couples.\n\u201cThe ability to marry the partner you choose brings great joy and happiness, provides important protections for couples and their families, and has no negative impact on others.\n\u201cIn Florida last week, when our own courts affirmed the freedom to marry, we saw an outpouring of thousands of couples ready to pledge their commitments and love. We look forward to the day when couples in every state have the same freedom that we Floridians now enjoy, and we will continue our work here to ensure the health and safety of all families.\u201d\nIn October, the last time marriage cases reached the Supreme Court, the justices let stand decisions by three separate appeals courts that granted marriage to same-sex couples. That opened the door to marriage for same-sex couples in 11 more states, but it avoided a nationwide ruling.\nThe decisions the Court agreed to review today come from the federal Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals, covering Tennessee, Kentucky, Ohio and Michigan, from which a three-judge panel upheld those states\u2019 bans on marriage for same-sex couples. That decision conflicted with favorable marriage rulings in four other appellate circuits. More than 50 federal and state courts have struck down discriminatory marriage bans in the past year and a half.\nBriefs will now be filed on both sides, oral argument will be scheduled, and the Supreme Court will likely hand down a decision by next summer, potentially bringing an end to marriage discrimination in the United States. Currently same-sex couples can marry in 36 states including Florida, where marriages began statewide on January 6 and are proceeding while Attorney General Pam Bondi continues to appeal to the 11th Circuit to reinstate Florida\u2019s discriminatory ban.\n\u201cThis struggle has always been about winning the freedom to marry nationwide and today\u2019s decision by the U.S. Supreme Court to take up a case is a huge step towards equality,\u201d Smith said.",

        "raw_content": "Banks struggle with real-time FX settlement challenge\nIn the absence of an industry-wide consensus on faster settlement, availability of real-time FX conversion is likely to remain patchy \u2013 challenging the growth of immediate payments in corporate banking.\nImmediate payments \u2013 already well-established in the consumer-banking market \u2013 have the potential to shake up corporate banking, giving corporate treasurers\u2019 liquidity and service-delivery benefits.\nHowever, to enable this, the settlement process for FX transactions needs a transformation, challenging banks\u2019 risk-management and IT systems.\nAs long as conventional spot contracts are settled on a T+2 basis, banks will be precluded\u2026\nJames O\u2019Neill,\nAt present, there is no harmonized push between regulators in the EU and the US to boost the adoption of real-time FX processing and immediate payments \u2013 and industry efforts are patchy.\nFor banks, there is an obvious deterrent to real-time conversion of foreign exchange. With a few exceptions, FX transactions are settled on a T+2 basis. So, if a bank settles the transaction with the client in real time, it takes performance risk on the other side of the transaction if the counterparty to the trade defaults on its obligation to deliver the funds.\nIn addition, Gary Wright, CEO of BISS Research, an independent research company, reckons there is at least one other reason for the lack of interest in real-time FX conversion from some banks.\n\u201cWe could talk about the technology question of obtaining the required data, but a more likely explanation is the opportunity to price and make a profit \u2013 banks make a huge amount of money on latency [the time it takes process the FX data],\u201d he says.\nWright says there is no technological barrier to the implementation of real-time FX conversion, a view shared by Celent senior analyst James O\u2019Neill, who accepts it is not a technical challenge per se, but more of a function of the settlement risk problem.\n\u201cAs long as conventional spot contracts are settled on a T+2 basis, banks will be precluded from offering real-time settlement to their corporate clients unless they want to assume the settlement risk and price this into the exchange rate offered to the corporate,\u201d he says.\nAn addition complication, according to Michael Daniels from CGI\u2019s banking division, is that real time is not a standardized term. Most trades are open for 15 minutes, so the other party has 15 minutes to trade at the price quoted. This supports settlement processes, such as obtaining credit approval, processing of deal tickets, etc.\n\u201cThere are efforts afoot to reduce the open period [five minutes being a proposed standard] as settlement risk is higher during the open period,\u201d he says.\nFurther barriers\nDaniels says there are several reasons why banks might be reluctant to offer FX conversion in real time, including: limited demand from clients making the activity uneconomic; lack of effective controls meaning management does not have the risk appetite to support trading; delays in validating counterparties; and lack of credit standing to be accepted as a counterparty.\n\u201cThere are also some local rules that can add further barriers,\u201d says Daniels. \u201cFor instance, Japan requires trading to only take place on an approved [Japanese] exchange.\n\u201cThe size of the deal can also be a factor \u2013 for a currency such as the Swedish krona, a $1 billion transaction would distort the market. Hence, any dealer funding such a transaction would choose to build up such a position over several days rather than in a single, real-time trade.\u201d\nCraig Ramsey, principal product manager, transaction banking, at ACI Worldwide, says many banks are still relying on payments technology created in the 1980s and 1990s, which limits real-time system availability.\n\u201cThis technology was never expected to support real-time FX rates as, at the time, a rate set early in the trading day was normally sufficient,\u201d he says.\nRamsey suggests immediate payments will have a massive impact on FX conversion.\n\u201cAlthough they are largely domestic currency-based now, it is only a matter of time before regional and global schemes come to the market and at that point real-time FX rates will be a must,\u201d he says. \u201cBanks must start to adjust their systems in preparation for this.\u201d\nTherefore, in principle, it is not a case of whether real-time FX rates will become ubiquitous but when \u2013 and that will probably be sooner than many banks expect, adds Ramsey.\n\u201cAs immediate payments schemes become established around the world, the industry is already looking to see how that can apply across currencies,\u201d he says.\nHowever, demand will continue to vary from country to country, says CGI\u2019s Daniels.\nSince 2002, continuous linked settlement has been available to participating banks and financial institutions. This effectively processes FX settlement on a simultaneous basis for both sides of a given transaction, taking the settlement risk out of the equation.\n\u201cNot all banks participate in this settlement service, but for those that do I suppose it would be possible to offer real-time FX settlement for their clients,\u201d concludes Celent\u2019s O\u2019Neill.\nImmediate payments to shake up corporate banking\nEurozone poised for cross-border real-time payments\nUS payments reform: evolution versus revolution\nLack of mandate slows faster payments implementation\nSepa-like revolution upends traditional payments model",

        "raw_content": "Fan website,\nMachine Head is an American heavy metal band from Oakland, California. Formed on October 12, 1991, the group was founded by Robb Flynn and Adam Duce. There have been 4 member changes since their inception. The current lineup of the band comprises Flynn (vocals, guitar), Duce (bass), ex-Vio-Lence guitarist Phil Demmel (guitar), and Dave McClain (drums). Machine Head is one of the pioneering bands in the New Wave of American Heavy Metal.\nMachine Head was formed by member Robb Flynn, previously part of the bands Forbidden and Vio-lence. Flynn felt musically unfulfilled with Vio-lence and requested to start a side project. When his request was denied, he left the band and formed Machine Head in 1992 with Adam Duce, Logan Mader and Tony Constanza. Though the band's first album, Burn My Eyes, was a big success in Europe where it garnered attention on MTV's Headbangers Ball, in America (with HBB taken off the air during the grunge movement) Machine Head would not have success until later albums.\nThe band nearly disbanded in 2002 after negotiating off its label, Roadrunner Records, when controversy surrounding Machine Head's fourth album Supercharger (released 3 weeks after September 11, 2001) resulted in their songs and their then-current video for the song \"Crashing Around You\" (which featured burning buildings) being pulled from all media outlets. The band re-signed with Roadrunner soon after and has released two albums since, 2003's Through the Ashes of Empires, and 2007's The Blackening, which earned Machine Head its first Grammy Award nomination. Machine Head finished recording their new album, Unto the Locust, which was released on September 27, 2011. - Wikipedia\nPast events by Machine Head\nMachine Head \u2013 Catharsis World Tour\nAstor Theatre, Tue 24 Jul 2018\nEnmore Theatre, Fri 20 Jul 2018\nHQ Adelaide, Tue 17 Jul 2018\nThe Forum, Sat 21 Jul 2018\nEatons Hill Hotel, Wed 18 Jul 2018",

Today\u2019s bite was so encouraging I had to share it, both for its own value as well as commending this App (you can find it on Google Play or iTunes) as a nutritious part of a healthy spiritual breakfast. Bon appetite!\n\u201cJesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom.\u201d (Luke 23:42)\nOne of the greatest hope-killers is that you have tried for so long to change, and have not succeeded.\nYou look back and think: What\u2019s the use? Even if I could experience a breakthrough, there would be so little time left to live in my new way that it wouldn\u2019t make much difference compared to so many years of failure.\nThe former robber (the thief on the cross next to Jesus) lived for another hour or so after his conversion. Then he died. He was changed. He lived on the cross as a new man with new attitudes and actions (no more reviling). But 99.99% of his life was wasted. Did the last couple hours of newness matter?\nThey mattered infinitely. This former robber, like all of us, will stand before the judgment seat of Christ to give an account of his life. \u201cWe must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each one may receive what is due for what he has done in the body, whether good or evil\u201d (2 Corinthians 5:10). How will his life testify in that day to his new birth and his union with Christ? How will his life confirm his newness in Christ?\nThe last hours will tell the story. This man was new. His faith was real. He is truly united to Christ. Christ\u2019s righteousness is his. His sins are forgiven.\nThat\u2019s what the final hours will proclaim at the last judgment. He is changed! And his change mattered. It was, and it will be, a beautiful testimony to the power of God\u2019s grace and the reality of his faith and his union with Christ.\nNow back to our struggle with change. I am not saying that struggling believers are unsaved like the robber was. I am simply saying that the last years and the last hours of life matter.\nIf in the last 1% of our lives, we can get a victory over some longstanding sinful habit or hurtful defect in our personality, it will be a beautiful testimony now to the power of grace; and it will be an added witness (not the only one) at the last judgment to our faith in Christ and our union with him.\nTake heart, struggler. Keep asking, seeking, knocking. Keep looking to Christ. If God gets glory by saving robbers in the eleventh hour, he surely has his purposes why he has waited till now to give you the breakthrough you have sought for years.\nDevotional excerpted from \u201cIt\u2019s Never Too Late to Keep Asking\u201d",

        "raw_content": "4 Reasons You Need Antimicrobial Floors Today\nIn an age in which flooring options are plentiful, suffering due to poor quality flooring is a choice. You may be thinking there is no remedy to your present carpeting woes. However, this couldn\u2019t be further from the case. Indeed, there have been a number of creations to help prevent issues with allergies as well as spreading the flow of various diseases. That said, the following is an overview of 4 reasons to purchase antimicrobial floors today.\nPrevent the Flow of Pathogens and Allergens\nNo matter how clean your home may be, you can still be at risk of contracting all types of diseases from various pets and people entering your home. Luckily, one of the top benefits of antimicrobial floors is that they help stop the flow of disease-causing pathogens. Moreover, another common issue with new flooring is that they tend to cause allergy issues. However, antimicrobial floors also help to stop the flow of allergens which will make for a much smoother transition. This is especially beneficial for those who have small children or elderly members of the family living at home.\nSince these floors help prevent the flow of pathogens innately, they require less effort to keep clean. This means less time, effort, and money spent on cleaning products to clean your floors. These floors can easily be cleaned and sanitized using standard products and materials, which makes them highly desirable for those who have medical reasons for keeping their floors as clean as possible. Furthermore, the materials are long-lasting and are their effects are not diminished by simple washes.\nAlthough this type of flooring can be highly useful, this does not mean you are limited with regards to variety. In fact, antimicrobial floors come in an array of shapes, sizes, textures, and colors. Just as with other types of flooring, you can choose the style that most suits your personal style and pre-existing decor. Moreover, there is even a variety of systems to choose from. This makes it possible to purchase flooring that caters to your preferences as far as functionality is concerned.\nChemical/ Thermal Shock Protection\nIn addition to stopping the flow of pathogens, antimicrobial floors can also protect against chemical and thermal shock. Given that thermal and chemical shock can wreak havoc on the quality of most types of flooring, this feature is especially beneficial to those who have experienced either of these issues in the past. Providing a dense level of protection, antimicrobial floors can provide a strong resistance to damages caused by either chemical or thermal shock.\nOverall, antimicrobial floors have an array of benefits. However, in order to ensure you reap all the stated benefits and more, you must have them installed by a qualified flooring specialist you can trust. Luckily Express Flooring has you covered.

        "title": "Danger: piano can take over your life | Facts and Arts",
        "raw_content": "Danger: piano can take over your life\nThe late Glenn Gould made some powerful enemies in the music world when he decided to record Bach's Goldberg Variations at a slow tempo. He also made music history. The Canadian virtuoso pianist was tired of hearing the same old Goldberg played to perfection by dozens of other pianists, so he decided to \"compose\" while performing.\nThis would be something like a bishop throwing in a few personal anecdotes while reading the Gospel at High Mass. The traditionalist music congregation was outraged. Most music-lovers, however, flocked to Gould's fresh approach, and it is now considered a classic recording.\nGould went on to astound audiences with his own tempos and dynamics in other compositions of the standard repertoire as he pursued his concert career. At one performance with the New York Philharmonic Orchestra under the direction of Leonard Bernstein, Bernstein turned to the audience and personally disavowed Gould's interpretation. But he said he had reluctantly agreed to perform it just as the pianist insisted.\nThis was a back-handed tribute to the young Gould's commitment to an ideal, despite how it ruffled the fur of the great lion Bernstein.\nGould has talked about this mischievous approach on camera, and to the end of his life remained blissfully unconcerned with the controversy it caused in the music world. He knew he had something here.\nGould's inventive tempos had a personal impact on me. I had long wanted to continue my piano studies, which I had abandoned in my university years in the face of too much talented competition. When Gould legitimized the slow-paced Goldberg, I ran out and bought the music and got to work on the opening Aria. It flowed perhaps less well than Gould's but well enough for my ears. I have never tried to speed it up.\nGould thus gets credit for reviving my love affair with the piano and eventually landing me at the London International Piano Competition - although not as a contestant.\nI have found more satisfaction as a piano \"groupie\", working with some of the world's great teachers and players in a non-performing capacity. In a way, the piano has taken over my life. I served nine years on the board of the London competition and am now helping the International Piano Academy in Dongo, Lake Como, Italy, with its written materials.\nKeyboard masters I have encountered in this work are a diverse group -- some relaxed, some downright paranoid.\nThe late Rosalyn Tureck, known as \"The first lady of Bach\", had a bit of of the diva in her, dressing in colorful scarves and a big, black sombrero as I met her a few times for tea at the Dorchester Hotel in London. I was editing some of her essays while she was at St. Hilda's College, Oxford, in the 1990s.\nRosalyn was a friend of the late writer William F. Buckley and graciously performed Bach at the Buckley home for his family and friends. But she also harbored self-doubt. Prior to a performance she would lock herself in her dressing room for an hour to meditate.\nIn the afternoon before to one of her recitals in Italy, I made the mistake of whispering something to a stagehand nearby as she was running through her program. \"Silence,\" she shouted at us without missing a note. \"The artist is rehearsing!\" We tip-toed into the next room.\nAt the other extreme was the German businessman-pianist Theo Lieven, founder of the Vobis computer company, for whom I organized concerts a few years ago in London. Theo frequently performed with full orchestra, including once under conductor Zubin Mehta. At one of the London events he insisted on demonstrating some new software on his laptop backstage as the orchestra tuned up. He apparently had nerves of steel. At the last moment, he snapped his laptop shut, strode onstage and attacked a Mozart piano concerto. His performance was note-perfect.\nTheo went on to create the International Piano Foundation at Cadenabbia, on Lake Como, a dream of an establishment that provided nine months of room and board and 24-hour access to practice rooms in a plush villa for half a dozen hand-picked young pianists. Director William Grant Nabor\u00e9, himself a virtuoso and much-recorded artist, was always on hand as coach, and such piano stars as Karl Ulrich Schnabel, Leon Fleischer, Dmitri Bashkirov, Murray Perahia, Fou Ts'ong and Menahem Pressler conducted master classes there.\nThe Foundation was the forerunner of the International Piano Academy at Dongo, Lake Como, Italy, now presided by Martha Argerich and still directed with great flair by Nabor\u00e9, and with a stellar list of master class teachers.\nIn the nerves category, somewhere between Rosalyn Tureck and Theo Lieven is Piotr Anderszweski, one of Europe's most promising young talents and a former student at Nabor\u00e9's Foundation. I sat with him recently in his dressing room at the piano festival in La Roque d'Anth\u00e9ron in the South of France. He made no secret of his pre-recital anxieties, hurrying to his practice room after our chat. Outside his door, I could hear him racing through his Bach Partitas. Two hours later he had to do three encores to calm the adoring audience.\nBut I gradually realized that the real drama in the piano world comes at the international competitions where young hopefuls perform for jaded judges, some of whom (except in London) are allowed to grade their own students - an obvious conflict of interest. I have seen judges write off competing youngsters for dragging a tempo, a heavy left hand or a few seconds of foot-tapping. Judges' decisions on who survives are often made on a razor's edge of personal taste.\nThe competition world keeps going despite dubious ethics, money troubles and jury disputes. Part of the current momentum comes from determined teen-agers flooding in from China, Taiwan and Japan and frightening the daylights out of the more casual Europeans and Americans.\nJury arguments often mar these contests, as happened when the young Macedonian pianist Simon Trpceski was awarded second prize in London a few years ago. One jury member, Geoffrey Norris, refused to endorse the result and resigned with a flourish. Trpceski then went on to a successful recording career while the top prizewinner, Finnish pianist Antti Siirala, opted to go his own way, entering the Leeds and Dublin competitions, and winning first prize at both.\nThese achievements make Antti one of the most acclaimed young performers in Europe. He went on to play at about 75 recitals and concerts in Europe, gathering fans along the way. Today he divides his time between teaching in Helsinki and performing primarily in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. Like Glenn Gould he does not relish playing the same standard pieces night after night on an endless schedule of recitals. \"I've never been into repeating myself too much,\" he says. \"Remember, pianists are people as well.\"",

        "raw_content": "The smell of new-mown hay in the air, a few chickens wandering free and 2,000 sweaty bodies in the summer heat would seem an unruly combination for some of the world's greatest piano music. But it all comes together under the stars every evening at the world's biggest open-air summer piano event, Le Festival International de Piano, at La Roque d'Anth\u00e9ron in Provence, southern France.\nI recently drove down to La Roque, near Avignon, to sample the 27th annual edition of this love-in for the \"orchestra in a box\", as the piano used to be known. The Steinway grand came to life for two hours under the urgings of Piotr Anderszewski, the young Polish-born, Lisbon-based pianist, considered one of Europe's most promising new talents. His Bach Partitas injected a dimension of real music into a set of pieces that other pianists sometimes perform as showcases of hollow technique. The audience roared its approval into the night.\nThe La Roque Festival draws about 75,000 paying visitors over its month-long duration to hear promising young artists and a selection of world-renowned players. The festival was started in 1980 by Ren\u00e9 Martin with only 12 events, expanding to more than 100 this year in La Roque and surrounding villages. Piano greats such as the late Sviatoslav Richter and Radu Lupu have performed at La Roque. Martin and a small team follow the world of piano music and choose each year's performers mainly from their bases in Russia, China and Europe.\nThe current program, running to August 22, features Alfred Brendel in one of his final pre-retirement recitals, and the Russian super-virtuoso Arkady Volodos. Sometimes Martha Argerich drops in for an unannounced gig but nobody could enlighten me on her possible appearance this year.\nThe attraction of La Roque and other European summer musical events seems to be the casual settings - the opportunity to hear great music without the stiffness of the old-fashioned concert hall. Formal wear is a rarity onstage or in the audience.\nVacationers may discover these venues by accident, but for those who plan their trips, the European Festivals Association lists just about everything on its website at www.efa-aef.org.\nSome of the key events this summer include Verona, Italy, set in a Roman Arena with acoustics so good a voice can be heard by 18,000 people. This is probably the entertainment site with the longest history of continuous use. Or try Bregenz, on Lake Constance, Austria, where crowds gather for productions staged out in the lake, outlined against the night sky.\nAt La Roque, Anderszewski turned up smiling and relaxed in a black shirt, and many in the audience looked like they had come from a day of trekking around Provence. Almost everyone carried a bottle of mineral water.\nThe music wafts through the foothills of the Chateau de Florans foothills, dotted with 365 plane trees.\nThe crowd was representative of the current classical music scene, dominated by the over-60 set but still attracting some young enthusiasts. Youth attendance was boosted this year with a few jazz events, including an appearance by Herbie Hancock's quintet. Some 85 pianists were scheduled to play, performing at about 100 solo recitals and chamber concerts.\nThe classics, often dismissed as a 19th century museum, are under pressure from the popular arts as CD sales slump and some concert halls struggle to fill seats. Summer festivals in Italy, Germany, Austria, Spain and Britain, however, seem to have found the formula.\n\"It's not true that live concerts are going under,\" William Grant Nabor\u00e9, director of the International Piano Academy in Dongo, Italy, told me. \"Au contraire. These festivals have become a huge business and the big interest is the piano.\"\nFour La Roque players this year were veterans of the Dongo academy -- Anderszewski, Nicolas Angelich, Alexei Volodine and Claire-Marie Le Guay (niece of former French Prime Minister Dominique de Villepin). Over the past five years, 18 pianists at La Roque have come from Nabor\u00e9's mythic institution, by far the most fertile source of young talent for the festival.\nNabor\u00e9 missed La Roque this year, however, having been invited to perform and conduct master classes at the Berlin International Music Festival. There he took four young Chinese players under his wing, \"bright as buttons and really prepared,\" he said. The Chinese youngsters, including two 13-year-old girls, were hand-picked by Yeundi Li, the second-hottest Chinese pianist after Lang Lang.\nLang Lang was busy playing at the opening ceremony of the Olympics in Beijing. The audience was a bit bigger.\nPLEASE NOTE THAT ON THE FACTS & ARTS SITE THERE ARE ARE FIVE MUSIC PERFORMANCE VIDEOS IN SECTION \"MUSIC\" AND TEN MUSIC RELATED VIDEOS IN SECTION \"VIDEOS\" ALL BY THE AWARD WINNING TELEVISION PRODUCER CHRISTOPHER NUPEN.

        "title": "Migrating health data to the cloud: locking down security | FairWarning",
        "raw_content": "Migrating health data to the cloud: locking down security\nHealthcare organizations need to look \u2013 and perhaps even study and scrutinize security issues \u2013 before leaping to the cloud.\nHealthcare organizations need to look \u2013 and perhaps even study and scrutinize security issues \u2013 before leaping to the cloud, according to Shane Whitlatch, enterprise vice president at FairWarning.\n\u201cThere are ample studies and reports that talk about the potential benefits of storing data in the cloud. These benefits range from the ability to manage the costs associated with storing data, the speed of accessing data, the ability to share that data and integrate it with other systems and ultimately to improve outcomes,\u201d he said. \u201cAnd perhaps most important, a healthcare organization can negotiate predictable expenses when working with cloud service providers.\u201d\nWith all this potential, many healthcare organizations are rushing to the cloud. In fact, 84 percent of care providers now are using cloud services, according to the HIMSS Analytics 2016 Cloud Survey (Figure 1). Haste, however, doesn\u2019t always end well. As a result, the challenge for healthcare organizations lies in determining how to best manage the move to the cloud and to ensure appropriate security is in place once they get there.\nOf course, healthcare organizations need to achieve the same level of data protection in the cloud as they do with on premise systems. \u201cHIPAA isn\u2019t necessarily concerned if the data is on premise or in the cloud, the laws still apply either way,\u201d Whitlatch said.\nBefore jumping to the cloud, then, organizational leaders should be aware of the security risks specifically associated with cloud data. \u201cA simple plan to start is to be sure the same security controls for premise are in place for cloud,\u201d he pointed out. Among the threats to PHI in the cloud are business associate breaches, unintentional disclosures and insider threats.\nPerhaps most troubling, though, the simple fact that it is easy to initiate cloud projects could present a security pitfall down the line. \u201cThe ease of spinning up a cloud application can create, in and of itself, a risk. Because cloud projects are easy to start, it\u2019s also easy to just leave them there and not monitor them. So, that is one of the big risks,\u201d Whitlatch said. For instance, a physician or researcher might choose to store protected health information (PHI) in BOX, stop working on the project and then just abandon the data in the cloud-based storage platform, which sits outside of established controls. As such, it is important to ensure third-party vendors have the staffing that enables them to perform the testing and continuous monitoring to protect applications and data.\nDeveloping the right mindset and realizing that cloud projects need to be monitored, much like on-site initiatives, is just the beginning, though. To ensure data security, healthcare leaders also need to:\nVerify that cloud service providers are fully addressing security. Remember, just because a cloud service provider has an appealing website doesn\u2019t mean that the vendor has adequate security. The reality is that some cloud vendors have a limited understanding of security and often place more emphasis and effort on functionality than on security.\nHere\u2019s the rub: Developing and implementing advanced security does not typically attract end-users in the same way that a sleek website or advanced functionality might. \u201cAs Mike Tyson once said, \u2018Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the mouth.\u2019 It\u2019s the same thing for a cloud service provider that has a slick demonstration or advanced functionality. It\u2019s all cool and feels good until someone steals the data,\u201d Whitlatch pointed out.\nAs a result, healthcare leaders should insist on cloud service providers including security tools with their solutions. \u201cAnd, don\u2019t just let the cloud companies tell you about security. Make sure they put it in the contract. That\u2019s another good practice,\u201d he said. \u201cIt\u2019s also good to require regular security reviews to ensure that security is being addressed on a continual basis.\u201d\nDemand security transparency. Healthcare leaders need to demand that vendors provide substantive information regarding security, not just facts related to the cloud company\u2019s data center environment but also information about incident response and notification procedures, code level reviews, penetration testing, periodic patching policies and account management as well. In addition, the cloud service provider should demonstrate compliance with an information security framework such as Service Organization Controls (SOC) 2 Audits or the NIST Cybersecurity Framework (NIST-CSF).\n\u201cYou really need to press for evidence of the cloud service provider having invested in security,\u201d Whitlatch advised. \u201cAsk if they have achieved the right certifications, and then really press for results. Show us how often you are testing, what type of testing you are doing, who\u2019s doing the testing.\u201d\nEnsure that cloud providers consider the comprehensive security picture. Cloud service providers need to integrate into an organization\u2019s existing security tools such as security information and event management, identity management and patient privacy intelligence.\n\u201cThe cloud service vendor has to be aware of all the layers of security that are required at the customer business environment and be able to integrate with the appropriate layers to really be a part of an integrated threat detection and prevention network,\u201d Whitlatch said.\nBecause healthcare is very contextual, it is especially important to address identity. In other industries, it\u2019s very cut-and-dried when determining if someone accesses a record that\u2019s inappropriate. In healthcare, however, a care provider might access a record or need certain data for a reason that may not be standard but is still valid. As a result, it\u2019s important to integrate with other layers of security, especially at the identity level to make the right security decisions.\n\u201cYou have to look at context. In healthcare, you could say a pediatric nurse should never look at the record of someone in the emergency room or someone in the operating room or someone who\u2019s not a child. But there are many valid examples where a pediatric nurse may, in fact, need to look at an adult record,\u201d Whitlatch said. \u201cIf you make decisions based solely on the person\u2019s identity without considering context, then you might reprimand or fire them because they looked at a record or report it as a breach and that\u2019s not accurate. You need to understand why was that person in there. What else were they doing that day? Was someone else logged in their ID? There are a lot of other things that provide context.\u201d\nIn the final analysis, while the cloud holds many advantages, healthcare organizations need to tread carefully and take into account the full array of security concerns. Indeed, only when security is comprehensively addressed can healthcare organizations reap benefits such as improved collaboration, increased agility, reduced IT footprint and predictable operating expenses.",

        "raw_content": "One week makes difference in soybean harvest\nOne week to 10 days may not seem like an incredibly long time, but to your soybean crop that span of time could be the difference between bin-busting yields and a near disaster.\nIn August 2001, much of the Delta's soybean crop was decimated by seed decay brought on by extreme warm, wet, and humid weather conditions, which in turn, triggered the soybean disease phomopsis.\n\u201cWe received nearly 10 inches of rain in Stoneville, Miss., during the Aug. 11-Sept. 3 (2001) period and we had extreme seed rot problems. I've been here 27 years, and I've never seen anything like it in my life, and I don't want to see it again. Had we been out of the field when that rain period occurred we would have had the yield and not had the seed rot,\u201d USDA soybean agronomist Larry Heatherly told growers attending the 2002 Delta Research and Extension Center's rice and soybean field day.\nSpared from the crop disaster were those growers who planted shorter-maturity soybeans in an early soybean production system.\nThe opposite was true in both 1999 and 2000 when much of the Delta experienced severe drought conditions in late summer, yet in all three years one extra week in the field meant the difference between very low yields and respectable yields.\n\u201cIn our 1999 soybean research we had a 10-day difference in planting dates, but a 20-bushel difference in yield,\u201d Heatherly says. \u201cBoth 1999 and 2000 were the driest Augusts I've ever seen. We had one-third inch of rain in August 1999 and none in August 2000. We had extreme drought, and in that kind of scenario a seven- to 10-day difference means the difference between extremely low yields \u2014 in the low teens \u2014 and respectable yields in the low 30s.\u201d\nOngoing research by USDA's Agricultural Research Service in Stoneville, Miss., could improve growers' odds of harvesting high-yielding soybeans, no matter what hand Mother Nature deals them.\nHeatherly is looking for a 120-day-maturity soybean plant (90 days from bloom to maturity) for his ultra-early-season production system in order to stay in the field as little as possible, and still maintain high yields.\n\u201cA growing season seven to 10 days shorter is very important to soybean production in this region for what has become our normal weather pattern of extremely hot and dry late July and early August,\u201d he says. \u201cWe hope not to see the extreme of last year again, and it's certainly not normal for our region of the country. Our main goal is to get out of the field seven to 10 days earlier to avoid the effects of drought. So, our ultra-early concept hopefully will be very useful once we determine what maturity groups we need to plant at this latitude or other latitudes so that we shorten our growing season by seven to 10 days.\u201d\nWith the early soybean production system, however, comes the inherent problem of seed decay.\nContributing to the problem, says USDA researcher Alemu Mengistu, is the fact that many early-maturing varieties are produced and bred in the Midwest and have not been evaluated under Mid-South phomopsis disease pressure. \u201cThere is no resistance to phomopsis seed decay at present, so we have to integrate the list of genes from plant introductions into the adaptable cultivars for this region.\n\u201cMany of the varieties used in the early soybean production systems in the South are bred and adapted to the northern region of the United States. They were not bred for the Mid-South region, and so the breeders with USDA and Mississippi State are working together to breed the necessary genes into more adapted varieties for this region,\u201d says Mengistu, a plant pathologist with USDA's Agricultural Research Service in Stoneville, Miss.\nIn the meantime, he says, we need to assess the impact of the phomopsis fungus on the early soybean production system, and determine what effect the environment, particularly moisture, plays in its development.\nTo determine what, if any, differences in yield are caused by of the presence of this disease under various environmental conditions, Mengistu's ongoing research includes three irrigation regimes, including a non-irrigation treatment, season-long irrigation, and irrigation applied only after soybean plants begin blooming.\n\u201cWhat we have discovered already is that the phomopsis fungus can be present in the plant before exhibiting any symptoms. It can stay latent in the plant and then take over at the end of the season when the environment is very conducive to its growth,\u201d he says. \u201cIt stays there just waiting for the right environment to cause an epidemic in your soybean field.\u201d\nDiverting another disaster, Heatherly says, may lie in combining his ultra-early soybean production system with disease resistance development.",

        "raw_content": "This GIF Shows How Close We Are To Blowing The World\u2019s Carbon Budget\nIf the goal is to limit climate change to 2 degrees, we don\u2019t have much wiggle room left.\nAt the climate talks in Paris last fall, 175 countries agreed to limit global temperature rise to at least 2 degrees Celsius\u2013and to aim for 1.5 degrees, a safer target. The only problem: The planet has already used up almost the entire amount of carbon it\u2019s able to burn before those limits are surpassed.\nTo have a chance of keeping warming to 2 degrees, researchers have estimated that we can emit no more than a trillion tons of carbon dioxide. While that may sound enormous, we\u2019ve already emitted more than 600 million tons, and we\u2019re on track to hit 2 degrees in a few decades. We may pass the target for 1.5 degrees by 2025. A simple new GIF shows how we\u2019ve blown through the trillion-ton budget since 1850.\nThe animation is part of a set of three. After Ed Hawkins designed a \u201cclimate spiral\u201d earlier this year to visualize the rise in global temperatures\u2013and it went viral\u2013researchers decided to add two more charts. Along with the carbon budget, they have another chart that shows how the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere has grown over the last 150-plus years as humans have pumped greenhouse gases into the atmosphere.\nScientists at the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research and the Australian-German Climate & Energy College were inspired to create the new animations after the success of the first temperature spiral.\n\u201cWe wanted to give a step more insight into, hey, this is happening because of us,\u201d says Malte Meinhausen, director at the Climate & Energy College. \u201cIt\u2019s because of our carbon budget. And we\u2019re eating up our carbon budget very fast. The point is very important to drive home again and again that it\u2019s because of the fossil CO2 emissions.\u201d\nAt this point, it\u2019s very likely that we\u2019ll go past 1.5 degrees. The current pledges countries made as part of the Paris Agreement don\u2019t go far enough.\n\u201cThat doesn\u2019t mean that 1.5 degrees is necessarily lost,\u201d says Meinhausen. \u201cIt just means that any emission thereafter has to be sucked out of the atmosphere. That can happen by biomass carbon capture and sequestration. It can happen by air capture and storage. But it\u2019s going to be very hard and very costly. It\u2019s a much better solution not to put the carbon in the air in the first place.\u201d\nNow, he says, countries should be focused on trying to build up renewable energy as quickly as possible. \u201cIt\u2019s happening faster than many people thought it would happen even five years ago,\u201d he says. \u201cBut that transition toward renewable energy is really key and can\u2019t happen fast enough for the climate.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Strategy to protect 10,000 homes from flooding\nA new strategy aims to protect thousands of homes and properties against flooding.\nMore than 10,000 families are to benefit from a 10-year strategy to protect homes in many of Scotland\u2019s most flood-prone communities.\nThe plan is the result of grant funding totalling \u00a3420 million and follows an agreement reached between the Scottish Government and COSLA.\nThe cash will be used to deliver 40 new flood protection projects and support local flood risk management plans.\nMore than 130 flood protection studies will be carried out to help find potential solutions for another 26,000 residential properties currently at risk.\nFirst Minister Nicola Sturgeon, who announced the strategy, said: \u201cEarlier this year I saw first-hand the devastating effects of mother nature as storms battered our communities.\n\u201cLast December is on record as the wettest and saw levels at rivers across Scotland overflow. When I visited Newton Stewart on New Year\u2019s Eve I met local butchers Kenny and Yolanda Owen at John D Owen & Son on what would have been their busiest day.\n\u201cTragically all their stock was knee deep in water which not only has a massive impact on the business but also on the wider community who were relying on them. As I walked down the high street what struck me was the resilience of this small community as they supported each other.\n\u201cSeven months on and the community have rallied round and businesses are getting back on their feet and returning to normal. However, the implications of the storm will be felt for a while yet and we need to work together to minimise any potential future disruption.\n\u201cThis agreement will give local authorities the certainty they need to deliver the actions set out in their Local Flood Risk Management Plans to help protect individuals, business and communities from the danger of flooding.\u201d\nCouncillor Stephen Hagan, COSLA spokesman for development, economy and sustainability, said protecting communities was at the heart of what local government does and was the reason why local government has committed substantial resources for flood protection.\nHe added: \u201cClimate change, and the associated increase in flooding events, poses a significant national risk. This is why investment in flood protection schemes and associated infrastructure is critical to protecting vulnerable householders, businesses and communities, and why the strong working relationship between local and Scottish Government is so important.\u201d\nFriends of the Earth Scotland said the announcement would be a welcome relief to thousands of people across Scotland who were witnessing first-hand the local weather changes brought about by global climate change.\nDr Richard Dixon, Friends of the Earth Scotland sirector, said: \u201c Flooding has a devastating impact on people, communities and businesses.\n\u201cIncreasing damage from floods is the most obvious sign of the impact of climate change and the UK Committee on Climate Change warned only last week that governments need to do more.\n\u201cUnlike the UK Government, the Scottish Government has kept up consistent funding for flood schemes and today\u2019s long-term commitment is very welcome.\n\u201cHowever, the scale of the flooding challenge is massive and increasing as more climate change brings higher seas, more storms and more extreme rainfall.\n\u201cOver the next decade this funding will protect 10,000 homes but the government\u2019s own figures show that there are over 100,000 homes currently at risk of flooding.\n\u201cThe pace of investment will need to increase significantly if people are to be properly protected from the misery of being flooded.\u201d",

        "title": "A Franciscan Moment | Timothy George | First Things",
        "raw_content": "A Franciscan Moment\nEvangelicalism is best understood as a renewal movement within the one, holy, catholic, and apostolic church. Across time, evangelicals have drawn deeply from four wells of Christian wisdom: the christological and trinitarian faith of the undivided church prior to 1054; the Protestant Reformation, especially its emphasis on the authority of the Bible and justification by grace alone through faith alone; the transatlantic awakenings exemplified by Whitefield, Edwards, and the Wesleys; and the missional stirrings of the Spirit throughout the globe, including puritanism, pietism, and pentecostalism.\nMost American evangelicals are not aware of this rich heritage, and that makes them vulnerable to the idolatries of the present moment. Martin Luther King Jr. once said that \u201cpeople who have no past, have no future.\u201d The thinness of American evangelicalism\u2014short on doctrine, worship as entertainment, little or no catechesis\u2014stems from spiritual amnesia (\u201cwe have forgotten who we are\u201d) and results in ecclesial myopia (\u201cat least we're not like them!\u201d). At a moment like this, when the ground once thought solid turns out to be quicksand, what is needed is a back-to-the-future revival. I see the signs of such an awakening already. It will be decidedly radical, global, and ecumenical.\nYounger evangelicals are increasingly drawn to the radical demands of the Gospel, to a kind of cross-centered, Sermon-on-the-Mount Christianity that embraces discipleship with a cost. In part, this explains why Dietrich Bonhoeffer is a figure of such enduring appeal. His break with the compromised theology and assimilated Christianity of his own time resonates with millennials who have little interest in \u201ca church which asks nothing of you\u201d (words I once saw on a church sign in Kentucky).\nThe exodus of the nones and the dones is a part of this phenomenon. They will not be won back by evangelical churches that echo the politically correct mantras of a waning mainline religion. They and others will be won only by a biblical vision of a full-sized God, transcendent and tender\u2014the God, as St. Augustine said, who burns with love but is not consumed. But the evangelical church must be re-evangelized if the faith is to be passed intact to the rising generation. As parachurch groups like Campus Crusade and InterVarsity appealed to an earlier generation, so today movements such as The Gospel Coalition, Acts 29, and the Passion conferences are calling thousands of young Christians to take up their cross and follow Jesus\u2014not the tame Jesus who would fit in well at a social gathering but the fierce Christ of Easter faith.\nThe awakening that must come will focus on the church as the people of God, the body and the bride of Christ, and the temple of the Holy Spirit. As the privileged place of Christian values is eroded in North America, the \u201cAmericanness\u201d of American evangelicals will become more problematic. At the same time, the global reality of the multi-colored household of faith will come more into view. New channels for transnational, transcultural, and transdenominational cooperation with other believers around the world will open up.\nAt the heart of this new reality is the persecuted church. Throughout history, the blood of the martyrs was the seed of the church. Today, the blood of the new Christian martyrs is becoming the seed of the church\u2019s unity. In the process, the American evangelical church will need to cultivate the discipline of receptivity\u2014the habits of learning, blessing, and receiving from others\u2014to complement the well-honed pattern of praying, giving, and going.\nEvangelicals and Roman Catholics are the two largest religious communities in North America. More than a generation ago, in the wake of Roe v. Wade, they found themselves side-by-side advancing human values in a culture of death: an ecumenism of the trenches. Long heirs of mutual hostility and vilification, many Catholics and evangelicals today have come to recognize each other as brothers and sisters in the Lord. Important differences of doctrine and church authority still remain, but these have not obviated the quest for Christian unity.\nEvangelicals, no less than Catholics, are committed to an ecumenical future, one based not on mere practical togetherness but rather on the unity in truth for which Jesus prayed in John 17. Some have called on Christians today to follow the way of the Benedictines who at the beginning of the \u201cdark ages\u201d built enclosed communities (monasteries) where they cultivated the land, copied books, and developed a life of prayer. That\u2019s a model from which all Christians can learn today.\nBut perhaps the example of the Franciscans is more fitting for our time. Saint Francis and his followers followed the way of the cross, embraced lepers, and danced in the joy of the Spirit for the glory of God. Their movement was marked by mobilitas, not stabilitas. They went everywhere preaching the gospel\u2014to the towns and marketplaces, to the universities and centers of power\u2014and eventually into all the world.

        "title": "First Impressions \u2013 Tick Tock: A Tale for Two",
        "raw_content": "First Impressions \u2013 Tick Tock: A Tale for Two\nFebruary 11, 2019 by Red Stewart Leave a Comment\nRed Stewart gives his first impressions on Tick Tock: A Tale for Two\u2026\nOne of the saddest gaming trends to see die over the years are \u201cstanding co-op\u201d games. This might sound like a strange genre, but let me explain what I mean- you remember those days when you would bring your Game Boy or DS to school to trade Pok\u00e9mon with your classmates? Or how about when you and your friends would link Tamagotchi together? Or how about returning home after a long day of school to kick back with your siblings and play some RuneScape?\nYes, all these titles technically still exist, but that local interplay is hardly emphasized these days. Online multiplayer will always exist, and, so long as Nintendo is around, couch co-op will remain staple of households. However, long gone are the times where a game was made with the intention of encouraging people to seek out their nearby neighbors or colleagues, family or pals, for the sake of cooperative gameplay: where you would plan out your Christmas and birthday purchases so that if one associate got Oracles of Ages, you\u2019d bet your butt the second would get Oracle of Seasons.\nWhile seemingly out of place in today\u2019s era of video games, Other Tales Interactive\u2019s Tick Tock: A Tale for Two tries to bring back some semblance of that era. And as someone who has fond memories of waking up with his brother and immediately playing Ruby and Sapphire in the early morning, I found myself easily tempted to dive back into that world. The question remains, though, does this title successfully introduce new generations to a retro-style of game design, or does it falter in its steps? The short answer is it\u2019s a bit too simplified, but for the longer answer read on!\nTick Tock is, of course, still in development, meaning a lot of things seen in the early access demo are prone to change. Keep that disclaimer in mind as I talk about everything I experienced, starting with the story. This is a puzzle platformer that has a vague backstory to it, and one that I\u2019m sure will be expanded upon significantly in the full release. That being said, the few narrative details that were provided were actually interesting, hinting at a family conspiracy or some cryptic inheritance. While puzzle games have, traditionally, focused primarily on their gameplay systems, I have a feeling that Tick Tock will be different in that regard, but we will have to wait and see.\nFrom there, we move onto the graphics, as presentation is as equally important for puzzles as it is for conventional action games. Tick Tock is set in the 1920s, but it strangely doesn\u2019t embody any of the architectural or design styles of that era- this was the decade where Dadaism bled into Art Deco, creating something out of a hypnagogic panorama. Tick Tock, on the other hand, lacks any apparent surrealism in its aesthetic. For the most part, what\u2019s in front of you are dimly-lit, minimalist backdrops, and that\u2019s not meant to be a jab at the programmers- everything looks great. Though this video game was clearly made on a lower-budget, the color grading is top notch, and the actual layout of all the scenery pieces is ergonomic.\nSound, at least for the demo, wasn\u2019t really there. There\u2019s no voice acting, and I recall music only playing in a few places, preventing me from giving a valid critique of it. Thus, the only thing left is the SFX, and all I can truly say on that front is that it works. I kind of feel that there was a missed opportunity here to put players in the heart of an industrial world, as the 1920s were home to major technological innovations. Sure you get the static of a Ham radio or chugging of steam locomotion, but it feels more withdrawn than directly complimentary to the game. It\u2019s not bad, however I do wish more had been done.\nWith those bases covered, we now come to the main topic at hand, which is the actual gameplay. As I said in the beginning, Tick Tock is a throwback to those older games that encouraged local cooperation, and it does this by providing two keys for two different players within the same proximity of each other. Puzzles in the title mostly consist of each person discovering one half of an enigma and having to put their respective halves together to see the full picture and consequently solve it. Now sure, you can technically do this with a stranger and communicate with them through some chat or video service, but you\u2019re going to find it much more annoying to do due to the picturesque nature of most of the problems.\nThat feature, however, is Tick Tock\u2019s biggest downfall, at least in the 30 minutes I played with my brother. See, the puzzles just aren\u2019t that difficult, nor are they varied- everything boils down to finding the two parts and merging them together, whether it\u2019s a split ticket or an obscure smoke message or a damaged map. My hope is the full game comes with a greater diversity of challenges: ones that cannot be resolved through an online guide.\nFor all the crap Pok\u00e9mon Go got, I at least respected it for trying to bring back the interplay from my childhood. Tick Tock may not be outstanding at the moment, but it is surely a step in the right direction, and my dream is it sparks other indie developers to do the same.\nFiled Under: First Impressions, Red Stewart, Video Games Tagged With: Tick Tock: A Tale for Two",

        "title": "Printing inks | Food Packaging Forum",
        "raw_content": "Printing inks in food contact materials\nOctober 10, 2012 Charlotte Wagner\nPrinting inks on food packaging materials are used for consumer information as well as for marketing purposes. Inks are used with many different packaging materials. As such, plastics, paper, board and cork may be directly printed on. The printing inks may migrate onto the internal surface in contact with food through off-set migration. Some materials such as glass and plastic may also be dyed themselves. Further, packaging material can be equipped with printed etiquettes, such as in the case of PET bottles, or PS trays and cups. Finally, the use of recycled paper can mean that inks may be present within the bulk material. The biggest concern regarding recycled paper is the presence of mineral oil. Due to the non-discriminatory recycling of food contact paper and board and paper and board used in other applications, mineral oils will mix into the bulk material even if mineral oils are not used on food packaging materials [1-3].\nThe migration of printing inks depends on the material properties. As such, carton and board have a high permeability whereas glass has no permeability.\nStudies have found printing inks in food stuffs since the late 80s. In 1989 Castle et al. reported plasticizers in foods [4], and since UV initiators, benzophenones have summed themselves to the list [5, 6].\nSeveral thousand different compounds can be used in printing inks posing a significant challenge to regulation and enforcement.\nSwitzerland is the first country to issue a positive list for printing inks (in force since March 2010), which contains more than 5000 substances.\nIn the EU food contact materials are regulated under the EU Framework Regulation EC 1935/2004on materials and articles intended to come into contact with food, which allows for further regulation being made on printing inks. Printing inks used on polymer based materials are regulated under regulation EC 1282/2011 on plastic materials. Yet, for all other food contact materials to this point no specific regulation on printing inks used in food contact materials has been enacted under European community law. However, the Report of the EFSA Scientific Cooperation (ESCO) Working Group on non-plastic Food Contact Materials includes an inventory list of substances used in non-plastic food contact materials, including printing inks[7]. While this report may be used to inform other panels within EFSA, it does not aim to produce a Scientific Opinion, which could inform action by the European Commission.\nIn the US, printing inks are regulated in the Code of Federal Regulations under Title 21 on food and drugs, Part 176-186 (21 C.F.R. Parts 174-186) and further fall under specific regulations depending on their use. If they have been cleared as a substance, which Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS) a company does not need to notify the FDA of its use in a food contact application (21 C.F.R. Part 184). In 1995 the FDA further adopted the Threshold of Regulation rule, which allows non-carcinogenic substances having a dietary concentration below 0.5ppb to be exempted from the authorization process. Further, if the substance has been previously regulated as a direct food additive, and the use in food contact materials will not result in an exposure above 1% of the ADI, it can also be exempted. If the substance can reasonably be expected to become a component of the food stuff, it is regulated under the Food Additive Directive. Colorants that are permitted for use in food are also permitted for use in the printing of packaging materials. Some printing inks, such as high purity furnace black for use in polymers (21 C.F.R. \u00a7 178.3297), may also be cleared in separate regulations[8].\n1. Biedermann, M. and K.

        "raw_content": "Date: 10th June 2018 at 10:13am\nEverton manager Marco Silva is keen on a move to sign Manchester United defender Victor Lindelof this summer, according to a report.\nThe Daily Mirror claims that Silva is prioritising a move for the 23-year-old and is well aware of his talents after watching him at Benfica.\nIt is understood that that the Merseyside club will prioritise a \u00a335million deal for the centre-back if Man United are willing to sanction his exit from Old Trafford.\nLindelof endured a frustrating first campaign at Old Trafford in the 2017/18 season and is in a tough battle to cement his spot in the starting XI. The ball-playing centre-back made a couple of high-profile errors in a Man United shirt to damage his reputation, but also proved in others games why he is such a highly-rated talent. The Sweden international is perfect for possession-based football as he he can build out from the back and is a modern-day defender, while the physical side of his game should improve over time. Everton do need a new centre-back in the summer, but it seems unlikely that Lindelof will end up at Goodison Park. He deserves another year at Man United to prove himself and he may still be a real success, while the Toffees need a more imposing and reliable figure in their defence to help them improve on last season\u2019s shocking defensive record.",

        "title": "Tears We Cannot Stop: A Sermon to White America - Reviewed by David Etheridge",
        "raw_content": "By Reviewed by David Etheridge on September 1, 2017\nBy Michael Eric Dyson. St. Martin\u2019s Press, 2017. 228 pages. $24.99/hardcover; $11.99/eBook.\nMichael Eric Dyson earned his PhD in 1993, but had been ordained as a Baptist preacher 16 years earlier at the age of 19. Tears We Cannot Stop calls heavily on his preaching skills, as he explains early on in the book:\nI don\u2019t want to\u2014really, I can\u2019t afford to\u2014give up on the possibility that white America can definitively, finally, hear from one black American preacher a plea, a cry, a sermon, from my heart to yours. If you\u2019re interested in my social analysis and my scholarly reflections on race, I\u2019ve written plenty of other books for you to read. I tried to make this book one of them, but in the end, I couldn\u2019t \u2026 What I need to say can only be said as a sermon.\nDyson surrounds the sermon with all the standard elements of a Protestant church service: call to worship, hymns of praise, invocation, scripture reading, benediction, offering plate, prelude to service, and closing prayer. The hymns are drawn from music of modern artists such as KRS\u2010One, Lauryn Hill, Tupac Shakur, Jay\u2010Z, Beyonc\u00e9, and Kendrick Lamar. He also uses their work as part of a social justice course he teaches at Georgetown University. The scripture readings are from the writings of Martin Luther King Jr.\nThe preacher begins his sermon by talking about whiteness\u2014not as a biological reality, but as a designation of that part of society with power and privilege over those who are not regarded as white. He notes, \u201cthe paradox is that even though whiteness is not real it is still true. I mean true as a force to be reckoned with.\u201d He illustrates the power of whiteness with stories from his own life and recent events such as the Rodney King and O.J. Simpson verdicts.\nHe next addresses five dysfunctional ways that those regarded as white respond when confronted with the reality that whiteness is simultaneously artificial and powerful. One such response is willful ignorance of how whiteness has caused black suffering\u2014for example, by means of employment discrimination, segregated and inferior housing and education, and racial profiling in the criminal justice system that makes life dangerous and expensive for many people of color and results in their mass incarceration. A second response is forgetting or dismissing the nation\u2019s racist history and its present\u2010day impact. A third is appropriating black culture without having to endure the oppression that helped form that culture. A fourth is historical revisionism\u2014for example, with respect to the causes of the U.S. Civil War or the impact of slavery on the enslaved. The fifth is the dilution of black struggles by making white individuals the heroes of those struggles.\nThe sermon also describes dysfunctional ways that black people sometimes respond to white racism. Using examples from his own family, he shows how anti\u2010black racism leads to colorism\u2014the favoring of lighter skin over darker\u2014among many people of color. Concerned with how law enforcement gives greater scrutiny and responds more harshly to black misconduct, some black people punish their own children harshly in an effort to prepare them for the world they will face.\nThe preacher/professor seeks to help white people find constructive responses to the pain (sometimes called \u201cwhite fragility\u201d) that they often feel when they come to understand the damage that whiteness inflicts on people of color. He describes how he helps his Georgetown University students of all ethnicities both to understand the pain of racism and to explore how best to respond to it.\nThe \u201cBenediction\u201d section offers a variety of constructive ways to respond. The author acknowledges that reparations is unlikely to be adopted as national policy, but offers practical suggestions on how individuals might do reparations on a personal basis. Individuals can engage black people to perform services for them and pay them slightly better or tip them more generously than normal. They can give scholarships to deserving black students that they know. He suggests establishing an I.R.A., an \u201cIndividual Reparations Account,\u201d to fund creative efforts to support the education of individual black people.\nDyson provides an extensive bibliography that can educate us about black history, life, and culture. He encourages white readers who do become educated to educate other white people and become advocates for racial justice. He also recommends visiting black people in schools, jails, and churches. He believes these practices will lead to empathy for people formerly regarded as \u201cother.\u201d He concludes, \u201cThe siege of hate will not end until white folk imagine themselves as black folk\u2014vulnerable despite our virtues.\u201d\nDavid Etheridge is a member of Friends Meeting of Washington (D.C.) and clerk of Baltimore Yearly Meeting\u2019s Working Group on Racism.\neducation, Georgetown University, Individual Reparations Account, Kendrick Lamar, Lauryn Hill, Michael Eric Dyson, racism, Rodney King, support, Tupac Shakur",

        "title": "The Department Q novels \u2013 Jussi Adler-Olsen: Friends of Oundle Library",
        "raw_content": "Cold cases in Copenhagen\nI joined Oundle Library's Crime Fiction Book Group when it was first set up and am greatly enjoying it. I like reading foreign fiction, be it crime or other, so my first attempt will be to look at the Department Q novels by the Danish author, Jussi Adler-Olsen.\nThe books all deal with the work of Department Q, the cold case unit of Copenhagen Police. Aptly, for a unit called Department Q, it is situated in the basement of the Copenhagen Central Police Station, which according to one character in one of the books resembles a fortress. If you have ever stood outside it, you might well agree.\nThe main characters in the department are the boss, inspector (and he rises in rank through the series) Carl M\u00f8rck, his assistant Assad, a maybe Syrian or other Middle Eastern refugee and possibly a previous secret service policeman, or maybe not, hard to tell. And then there is Rose, the secretary and assistant. M\u00f8rck and Rose are both abrasive and, M\u00f8rck in particular, pretty unpleasant. Assad has hidden depths, which he hides very well under a pretence of not being able to speak or understand Danish properly. And I think it is a pretence, very handy at times, pretending not to understand. There are of course lots of other recurring characters in the books.\nI have read several of the books in the series, the latest being \u201cBuried\u201d. Not all have been an unalloyed pleasure. This book\u2019s main themes are murder, criminal activities of foreign gangs in Copenhagen and a \u201crun for your life\u201d scenario by the main character, Marco. The book is interesting, exciting in places, well written, but at 500 pages, a tad too long. I can recommend it, though.\nOthers I have read are \u201cThe Keeper of Lost Causes\u201d, which was very good, \u201cGuilt\u201d, which was exciting, but very unpleasant. And \u201cThe Hanging Girl\u201d which was pretty good, set on a Danish island in the Baltic.\nThe first four books in the series have been made into films, which were shown on BBC4 last year. All were excellent, story-wise pretty close to the books, but the characters of M\u00f8rck and Rose were both much less abrasive, more thoughtful, but still equally effective. I would gladly watch more of them. They are Danish films and therefore subtitled.\nSo, if you like your crime fiction rather graphic, I would recommend this author. It is worth noting that several of the books have been published with different titles, so read the synopsis carefully to avoid borrowing the same book again thinking it is a new one.\nOlsen had also written books with other subjects than Department Q. I have not read them yet but am on the lookout.",

        "raw_content": "Sega Projects Net Loss As Sonic Boom Skids With Under 500,000 Copies Sold\nWith recent layoffs and the announcement of abandoning its long-time North American headquarters in San Francisco, we knew that Sega wasn\u2019t have its best year. Today\u2019s earnings release puts a fine point on that, as the company now projects a year-end loss following a down holiday quarter.\nSega announced net sales for the quarter of \u00a5113.27 billion ($945.78 million), down from \u00a5141.75 billion ($1.18 billion) during the same quarter last year. Profits for the holiday quarter, typically a strong one, are down over 93 percent from \u00a532.98 billion ($275.4 million) last year to \u00a52.06 billion (17.16 million) in the most recently completed quarter.\nWhile Alien: Isolation performed well across five platforms with 1.76 million copies shipped, Sega\u2019s partnership with Nintendo didn\u2019t bear much fruit. The two Sonic Boom titles shipped a combined 490,000 copies. Neither reviewed particularly well.\nThe company announced a significant revision to its year-end forecast that covers the financial statements in red ink. Sales expectations have been lowered and profit expectations dropped from a gain of \u00a54 billion ($33.4 million) to a loss of \u00a513 billion ($108.5 million).\n[Source: Sega (1), (2), (3)]\nWhile Sonic fans clamor for a return to form for the blue blur, Sega keeps failing to deliver. The latest move, giving the franchise to western studios, had a lot of promise. Unfortunately, the effort tripped and fell.\nSega made the most of its Alien license, redeeming it after the abysmal Colonial Marines. We still have yet to hear official confirmation about the Total War: Warhammer project mentioned in The Art of Total War, and I suspect that would generate some buzz for the publisher.\nHere\u2019s hoping that E3 brings big things for Sega (and maybe even Phantasy Star Online 2 for Western audiences). The publisher certainly needs more wins (like Persona 5, which is due out this year).",

        "title": "Jak 3 Review - Gaming Nexus",
        "raw_content": "Written by Charlie Sinhaseni on 2/9/2005 for PS2\nMore On: Jak 3\nAs we age we go through periods of transition. Just the other day I was cleaning out my old stuff when I happened upon some old pictures of my baseball days. How I de-evolved from being an All-City Center Fielder into the editor of an online gaming publication is beyond me, but we all do it at sometime. We all progress and that\u2019s exactly what Naughty Dog has done with its Jak & Daxter franchise. I like to look at the various games as a person passing through the stages of development. In the Precursor Legacy Jak was young and lighthearted boy who was na\u00efve to the evils of the world. When he appears in Jak II he\u2019s been tormented by his oppressors and his eyes are upon to the darker sides of life. With Jak 3, our heroes have reached the full stage of evolution and are in a quest for all out rage. This is the last entry in the Precursor trilogy and the end is fitting. With Jason Rubin\u2019s departure from Naughty Dog he made sure not to leave his pals in the cold; he has helmed the swan song to arguable one of the best trilogies ever to appear in video gaming.\nAlthough this is the third game in the franchise the designers decided to pick up the story right where it left off, leaving those who didn't play Jak II in the dust. Jak and Daxter are sitting in what looks like a desert oasis when they're accosted by a larger looking fellow. He then proceeds to put them through an obstacle course which essentially serves as the game's tutorial. Upon completion gamers are set free into the land to discover and explore it as they please. It would have been nice if the game had given us a better refresher, but the manual seems to cover it pretty well. Jak and Daxter had defeated the Baron Praxis but the people of Haven City had grown weary of Jak and his mysterious powers. Not wanting to uncover the truth for themselves, they decide it would easier to banish their savior so that they can live a life of peace without fear and repression.\nIt is then Jak's goal to discover the truth behind his powers and solve the mystery of the Precursor Legacy once and for all. Like the previous two games, the storyline is full of plenty of twists and turns that really ooze that Hollywood caliber script that the developers are clamoring over these days. As was the case in Jak II, your characters will undergo a number of sequences that will force them to become emotionally charged. This requires them to utilize and express realistic emotions that are often lacking in today's games, adding a humane frame of reference that allows us to empathize with the characters. You'll love the story and when the gameplay begins to falter it'll be the aspect that motivates you to keep pressing through the game.\nThat's because the developers seem to have forgotten to access the new technologies available to them since the development of the first Jak. Though the original is still impressive when measured up against some of today's newest titles, some of the elements were significantly flaws. Most frustrating is the camera system that does a half decent job of displaying the action and an even poorer job in combat situations. It sits too low, making it very difficult for the player to ascertain their depth perception in jumping situations. Even the initial jumping portions in the tutorial are difficult because of the way that the camera sits. This was excusable three years ago but some measures should have been taken to ensure that the player wouldn't have such a difficult tie with it in today's age. It'll frustrate you when you've fallen into the same lava pit for the 15th time because you couldn't tell how far and high a floating platform was. That's only half the\nproblem; the game is a platformer at heart, but it features plenty of action-packed sequences. With the introduction of the guns in the second Jak the action was bumped up a notch. The problem with the game is that the camera is rarely able to keep up with the action, constantly forcing you to fire blindly as an off-screen foe takes potshots at you. This could have easily been remedied had the game had a strafing or an auto-targeting function that allowed you to lock-on to target. Don't get me wrong, the combat is still an awful lot of fun when you can see your foes, but it's just a real annoyance when the camera can't properly display the action.It's a real shame it had to be this way, because the game gives you access to many means of destruction. When unarmed, Jak has two means of attack; a spin attack and a lunging punch that comes in handy when he needs to attack distant targets. When crouched Jak can perform an uppercut move and when in the air, he can chain a smashing move that devastates targets. Rounding out his stand alone attacks is a jumping maneuver that works well from a distance. Jak II introduced guns into the fracas and they operate in pretty much the same fashion here. You select your weapon of choice with the d-pad and then lay into the bad guys. I like the way the guns operate but I really wish there was some sort of targeting mechanism put into the game. To aim you just point Jak in a direction and hit the R1 button to fire. It\u2019s a very simple mechanism and the ability to chain together melee and weapon attacks adds a rather interesting dynamic to the combat.\nIn Jak II we learn that the source of Jak's rage comes from a tormentor who experimented on him with Dark Eco. When angry enough Jak could utilize the Dark Eco to his advantage and turn himself into a nearly invincible death dealer. This year's game brings back that feature but adds in a number of moves. When activated Jak can become invisible, perform a dive bomb and shoot energy from his body. There's also Light Jak which essentially turns Jak into a white mage with healing properties. I'm not all that crazy about the Light Jak but it adds in an interesting gameplay facet that helps round out the combat quite a bit.\nWhile the combat is fun, the real entertainment is derived from the vehicles in the game. Whether it is a sand creature or a dune buggy, the vehicles are a real blast to drive. You'll always have plenty of fun navigating the cities and deserts with the vehicles as you wreak all sorts of havoc upon the unsuspecting denizens. The racing sequences are fun too because of the excellent physics system that is in place. I\u2019ve never jumped off of huge sand dunes in an eight-wheel buggy but I think that the designers have done an admirable job of replicating the sensation in their video game.\nAs it is built upon the same technology that powers Jak II (and the Ratchet & Clank franchise) the game has this sort of cartoony look to it that look great and holds up well in tense situations. Everything in the game has a rundown sort of look to it but it\u2019s a design decision and in that sense, it\u2019s beautiful in the same sense that the planet Tatooine in the Star Wars movies is beautiful. You won\u2019t find anything appalling or outlandish here but what\u2019s included is definitely pleasing to the eyes.\nThe same goes for the audio elements in the game, great atmospheric effects and excellent voice acting lead the way while sub-par weapons effects sort of lag behind. The choice to go with a group of unknowns was a risky one but it paid off as the characters in this game have life and energy thanks to the expertly delivered dialogue. The rest of the effects are pretty good but they don\u2019t really jump out at us as being remarkable. They\u2019re there, and we guess that\u2019s all that really matters.\nWhen I first played The Precursor Legacy I was taken aback by the world that Naughty Dog had created, Jak II only further increased my love affair. With Jak 3 everything seems so pass\u00e9 and normal again, as it the well had run dry and the developers had lost their passion for the franchise. Perhaps it's the reason that Jason Rubin has decided to move on, or maybe it's just the fact that this is the third entry in the franchise,\nbut it's definitely the weakest of the three. There\u2019s still a lot of fun to be had here, but it just doesn\u2019t live up to the standard set by the previous two entries.\nWe're all sad to see the series go, but this third title provides a fitting end to the franchise. If you've played the first two Jak titles you'll probably want some closure, this is the place to get it.",

People must have the right to peaceful protest without intimidation or fear of attack by government forces. They must also have the right to communicate without interruption by government agencies. \u201cRecent events have demonstrated clearly that governmental reforms are long overdue throughout the region. Our own government can best assist this process of reform by working with the people to support freedom, justice and respect for human rights. \u201cWe agree with Reps.

        "raw_content": "Israel\u2019s Provocation at al-Aqsa\nRabbi Plans \u2018Miracle\u2019 at the Western Wall\nThe Israeli government has indicated that it will press ahead with a plan to enlarge the Jewish prayer plaza at the Western Wall in Jerusalem\u2019s Old City, despite warnings that the move risks triggering a third intifada.\nIsraeli officials rejected this week a Jerusalem court\u2019s proposal to shelve the plan after the judge accepted that the plaza\u2019s expansion would violate the \u201cstatus quo\u201d arrangement covering the Old City\u2019s holy places. Islamic authorities agreed to the arrangement after Israel occupied East Jerusalem in 1967.\nThe site eyed by Israeli officials is located at the Mughrabi Gate, an entrance to the mosque compound known as the Haram al Sharif, the most sensitive site in the conflict between Israel and the Palestinians. Inside are Al Aqsa Mosque and the golden-topped Dome of the Rock.\nEarlier encroachments by Israel on Islamic authority at the site have triggered clashes between Israeli police and Palestinians. A heavily armed visit to the compound by Ariel Sharon in 2000, shortly before he became prime minister, to declare Israeli rights there sparked the second intifada.\nIn recent weeks, analysts have grown increasingly concerned that a third intifada is imminent as Benjamin Netanyahu\u2019s government has advanced settlement building in East Jerusalem and declared several places deep in the occupied West Bank as Jewish heritage sites.\nAnother assault on Muslim control so close to Al Aqsa Mosque risked \u201cpouring fuel on the fire\u201d, said Hanna Sweid, an Arab member of the Israeli parliament who filed the original planning objections to the Israeli scheme.\nAccording to evidence presented to the Jerusalem court, Israeli officials used minor storm damage to a stone ramp leading to the Mughrabi Gate as a pretext to tear it down six years ago. The intention is to replace the ramp with a permanent metal bridge and then extend the Jewish prayer plaza into the area where the ramp was.\nThe scheme is the brainchild of Shmuel Rabinowitz, the rabbi in charge of the Western Wall, who declared the damage to the ramp in 2004 a \u201cmiracle\u201d that had offered Israel the chance to take control of more land from Islamic authorities in the Old City.\nThe rabbi\u2019s plan was approved in late 2007 by a special ministerial committee headed by Ehud Olmert, then the prime minister. The project has also won backing from Mr Netanyahu, though he froze construction work in July under orders from the Jerusalem court.\nThe judge, Moussia Arad, proposed in January that the ramp be reinstated, or at the very least that the bridge follow the exact route of the ramp, and that all prayer at the site be banned. That position won the backing of United Nations officials monitoring Israel\u2019s work at the Mughrabi Gate.\nThe Jordanian, Turkish and Palestinian Islamic authorities have all expressed deep concern at Israeli excavations at the Mughrabi Gate that are seen as a prelude to the plaza\u2019s expansion.\nObservers had hoped that, faced with the danger of another row with the United States so soon after the diplomatic crisis sparked by Israeli settlement building in East Jerusalem, Mr Netanyahu might agree to the court\u2019s compromise.\n\u201cNetanyahu has a history of trampling on Palestinian rights in the Old City,\u201d Mr Sweid said. \u201cThere is every reason to be worried about what he plans to get up to this time.\u201d\nIn 1996, during his previous stint as prime minister, Mr Netanyahu opened the Western Wall tunnel, another excavation close to the mosque compound, resulting in clashes in which 75 Palestinians and 15 Israeli soldiers were killed.\nIsrael, which says the mosques sit on the ruins of two ancient Jewish temples, built by Solomon and Herod, refers to the site as Temple Mount and has staked a claim to a degree of sovereignty over the area in recent peace negotiations.\nLast week, in a sign of the explosive consequences of tampering with the status quo concerning Jerusalem\u2019s holy places, riots broke out in a \u201cday of rage\u201d in East Jerusalem following Israel\u2019s announcement that it had rebuilt an old synagogue, the Hurva, close to the mosques.\n\u201cThe Haram al Sharif is a site of unrivalled Muslim sensitivity and the Israeli government is playing with fire here,\u201d said Mohammed Masalha, a lecturer who heads a coalition of Islamic groups inside Israel that brought the court case.\n\u201cI was asked by the government to inspect the damage two days after it occurred and I found maybe a dozen stones had been dislodged,\u201d he said. \u201cThe ramp could have been repaired in less than a week but instead they decided to demolish it.\u201d\nJudge Arad, Mr Ben Dov said, had been \u201cshocked\u201d when she saw the photographs.\nMr Ben Dov said his recommendation that the walkway be repaired for $14,000 was ignored by Israeli officials, including the then-tourism minister, Benny Elon, a settler rabbi who heads a far-right party. Instead the government tore down the ramp and built a temporary wooden bridge to the Mughrabi Gate while excavations were carried out in the area exposed by the ramp\u2019s destruction.\nThe Jerusalem comptroller, Shulamit Rubin, the city\u2019s watchdog official, criticised the excavations at the time, saying they were illegal because the necessary authorisations had not been sought.\nThe unscientific approach to the excavations was highlighted in early 2007 when it emerged that three years earlier Israeli archaeologists had unearthed at the site a Muslim prayer room from the time of the Saladin, dating to the 11th century, but had kept the discovery quiet.\nIn February 2007, when Israel brought heavy machinery to the Mughrabi Gate excavations, hundreds of Palestinians clashed with police while the Islamic Movements within Israel staged large demonstrations. Islamic Jihad said it had fired two Qassam rockets from Gaza in response, and Al Aqsa Martyrs\u2019 Brigade threatened to carry out attacks if the work was not halted.\nIslamic authorities also expressed fears that the compound of mosques might be damaged by the bulldozers, and that the heavy machinery might also destroy the as-yet-undiscovered Al Buraq mosque, believed to be located close to the Mughrabi Gate and marking the site where the Prophet Mohammed tethered his horse on his Night Journey between Mecca and Jerusalem.\nTo calm the situation, Israel allowed Turkish experts to examine the excavations a short time later. They reported that Israel was trying to sideline Jerusalem\u2019s Islamic history so that its Jewish aspects could be emphasised.\nIsrael had another reason for pushing ahead with the illegal excavations, said Kais Nasser, the lawyer representing the Islamic groups. \u201cThey needed to unearth something, anything, that could be claimed as an antiquity to nullify Muslim demands for the ramp to be reinstated. Rebuilding the ramp would then be impossible because it would risk damaging an archaeological site.\u201d\nMr Nasser said Israel hopes that if it can present the bridge as the only feasible option, then there will be no obstacles to expanding the prayer plaza.\nMr Ben Dov said he shared such suspicions about Israel\u2019s activities at the site, adding that the goal of Israeli officials seemed to be to gain control over the whole 480-metre length of the Western Wall.\nHe and other observers have said this is just one more example of a long-standing policy to gradually encroach on Muslim control of the mosque compound.\nAmong the most significant has been the creation of the City of David, an Israeli archaeological park, directly south of Al Aqsa Mosque in the Palestinian neighbourhood of Silwan. The site is run by Elad, an extremist settler group, that has taken over neighbouring Palestinian homes and, along with the Jerusalem municipality and government officials, is pushing for dozens more to be demolished. It eventually wants to link up the park with the Temple Mount.\nJewish settlers have also been concentrating their efforts on taking over Palestinian homes in the Muslim quarter, close to the Haram al Sharif, and have been supported by right-wing politicians, including in the past by Mr Netanyahu.\nOne settler organisation, Ateret Cohanim, has been especially active, and is known to be excavating under Palestinian homes around the compound in the hope of discovering traces of the temples.\n\u201cWhat we see here is an unholy alliance of government ministers, Jerusalem municipality officials and settler organisations trying to revive a supposed golden era of Jewish sovereignty from thousands of years ago,\u201d Mr Sweid said.\nIn addition, he said, Israel believed that a more significant Israeli presence close to the mosques would strengthen its hand in any final peace talks over the division of Jerusalem with the Palestinians, with Israel able to stake a bigger claim to sovereignty over the site.\nAt the Camp David talks in 2000, Bill Clinton, then US president, proposed dividing sovereignty so that Israel would have control over both the \u201csubterranean spaces\u201d of the mosque compound and the Western Wall. During the talks Ehud Barak, the Israeli prime minister of the day, alarmed observers by calling the whole compound the Jewish \u201choly of holies\u201d, a term previously used in referring only to the inner sanctum of the destroyed temples.\nAlthough Jewish religious purity laws have traditionally forbidden Jews from entering the Temple Mount, a growing number of rabbis are demanding that Jews be allowed to pray in the compound. Even more fanatical groups are known to favour blowing up the mosques and building a third temple in their place.\nThe recent rebuilding of the Hurva synagogue has added to such concerns. The Israeli media reported that, according to a 300-year-old rabbinical prophecy, the synagogue\u2019s rebuilding would herald the construction of the third temple.\nA sordid affair: The Mughrabi quarter\u2019s ethnic cleansing\nIsrael\u2019s ethnic cleansing of the Mughrabi, or Moroccan, quarter of Jerusalem\u2019s Old City after its capture in 1967 is one of the more sordid episodes of the 1967 war.\nUntil it was destroyed by Israel in 2004, the stone ramp that led to the Mughrabi Gate \u2014 one of the main entrances to the elevated compound of mosques known as the Haram al-Sharif \u2014 was the only visible reminder that the quarter, once home to 1,000 Palestinians, had ever existed.\nAt the end of the Six-Day war, as Israeli troops poured into the Old City, the Israeli government was presented with an opportunity not only to restore a Jewish presence to the walled city but to create a newly expanded Jewish quarter that would have the Western Wall at its centre.\nBefore 1948, prayer at the Wall had been possible only at several points along a narrow alley at the margins of the densely populated Moroccan quarter, an area bequeathed in the twelfth century to Saladin\u2019s followers by his son Malik al-Afdal.\nBut in the immediate wake of the \u201cmiraculous\u201d victory in 1967, the Israeli government saw the chance to create a wide prayer plaza in front of the Wall, making it the symbolic heart of an expanded Jewish state that could unite religious and secular Jews.\nAll that stood in their way were the quarter\u2019s 135 homes.\nOn the night of 10 June, Uzi Narkiss, head of the army\u2019s central command, authorised 15 private demolition crews to raze the quarter under cover of dark. He, like the politicians, knew that neither the international community nor the Israeli courts would consent to such a brazen violation of international law.\nWhen Teddy Kollek, the mayor of West Jerusalem, had consulted the justice minister, he had been told: \u201cI don\u2019t know what the legal status is. Do it quickly and may the God of Israel be with you.\u201d\nUzi Benziman, an Israeli journalist, described the \u201cnear-mystic\u201d compulsion that drove those behind the act of ethnic cleansing: \u201cThe officers and the contractors considered themselves emissaries, come to renew Jewish statehood as it had been 1,897 years earlier.\u201d\nAs the ruins were cleared and the ground levelled to create an expansive plaza in front of the Western Wall, the contractors were told to use the rubble from the homes to build a ramp up to the Mughrabi Gate. The gate is the only entrance to the compound for which Israel kept the key. Today it is the access point for all non-Muslim visitors, including the Israeli police.\nThe Western Wall and the plaza, on land that had previously fallen under the control of the Islamic authorities, was placed under the jurisdiction of the Israeli religious affairs ministry. A few days later, on the Jewish holy day of Shavuot, an estimated 200,000 Israeli Jews \u2014 one in 10 of the population \u2014 came to visit the Wall.\nAlthough Israel had effectively annexed East Jerusalem, its leaders were still troubled by the possible international repercussions of being seen to seize control of the Old City\u2019s holy places, especially the compound of mosques. Under a so-called \u201cstatus quo\u201d agreement, Muslim officials were supposed to continue controlling the mosque compound, with Israeli oversight.\nFrom the early 1970s, extremist rabbis \u2014 led by the Shlomo Goren, then the chief rabbi of Israel \u2014 began lobbying for Jews to be allowed into the compound to pray, despite traditional rabbinical rulings against such a practice.\nIn recent years Jews have started to be escorted by Israeli police inside the compound through the Mughrabi Gate, though praying so far has not been sanctioned.\nJonathan Cook is a writer and journalist based in Nazareth, Israel.

        "raw_content": "April 21, 2016 Comments (0) Views: 2707 GFR Opinion Piece\nCertified Sustainable?: At-risk Atlantic Cod Threatened By MSC Endorsement\nWhy is Atlantic Cod from Newfoundland being sold as \u201cMSC certified sustainable\u201d while under consideration for endangered species protection?\nIn 1992, Atlantic Canada\u2019s lifeline collapsed. The waters surrounding Newfoundland, once teeming with millions of tonnes of Atlantic Cod (Gadus morhua), saw their numbers tumble to nothing. It was commercial fisheries that had depleted cod populations after decades of overfishing. Seemingly overnight, Newfoundland\u2019s myriad coastal communities watched their economic, cultural, and culinary mainstay disappear. Fearing the outright extinction of Atlantic Cod, a fishing moratorium was imposed on the enormous Northern Cod fishery in July of 1992 \u2013 a protection that has remained in place ever since. While crucial for the recovery of the species, the moratorium put nearly 30,000 Newfoundlanders \u2013 almost 12% of the province\u2019s population \u2013 out of work. Most of the unemployed fishery harvesters and workers were forced to access government aid, and in the decades following the moratorium, tens of thousands abandoned the province. The collapse of the Canadian cod fisheries is still regarded as one of the most egregious examples of natural resource exploitation and mismanagement in history, and its devastating environmental and economic impacts remain today.\nGiven this tumultuous history, it may seem surprising that one of the associated fishing zones, 3Ps, was recently able to earn certification as a sustainably-managed fishery and seafood source. The 3Ps zone, located along the Saint Pierre Bank south of Newfoundland, was severely impacted by the sharp decline in Laurentian cod in the 1990s. However, recent years have seen a tentative rebound in the fish populations, and some, including the Marine Stewardship Council, or MSC, have pointed to this as an indication of reprieve for Newfoundland\u2019s beleaguered cod industry.\n3Ps is a fishery designated by the Northwest Atlantic Fisheries Organization (NAFO). NAFO is an intergovernmental fisheries science and management organization whose mandate is to ensure the long-term conservation and sustainable use of the fishery resources in the Northwest Atlantic.\nOn March 22, 2016, the MSC affirmed the health, vitality, and commercial viability of 3Ps by granting it a seal of approval as a \u201ccertified sustainable\u201d cod fishery. This means that Newfoundland\u2019s Icewater Seafoods, the initiator and chief beneficiary of the certification, will now be able to supply the once-failing cod as a certified sustainable product to its customers, including UK giant Marks & Spencer. Ocean Choice International, the other fish harvester, will likewise benefit from the certification process. The heroic narrative seems clear: an overfished species on the brink of extinction makes a comeback, becomes an environmentally sustainable product through good management and with the MSC\u2019s blessings. It\u2019s an ecological and economic win-win, particularly for Newfoundland\u2019s long-suffering fisheries. Yet, the certification is not without controversy. Although the story seems to signal their recovery, the 3Ps cod are not out of danger yet \u2013 not by a long shot, according to Susanna Fuller, the Marine Conservation Coordinator at Nova Scotia\u2019s Ecology Action Centre (EAC).\nFuller and the EAC, with support from the David Suzuki Foundation, have taken the lead on questioning the validity of the MSC\u2019s approval of the 3Ps cod fishery. Last February, Fuller travelled to London, UK to formally object to the certification process. Pointing out that the MSC\u2019s standards for determining sustainability ignore Canadian law and conservation expertise, she stated, \u201cthey undermine government policy and scientists.\u201d Fuller cites a 2015 assessment report by marine researchers associated with the federal Department of Fisheries and Oceans, or DFO. The report judged the 3Ps cod stock to be in a \u2018Cautious Zone\u2019 \u2013 not in urgent danger of extinction, but nowhere near the health that might be associated with a sustainable population. Supporting statistics show a two-year decline in the 3Ps stocks, as well as an unusually high-mortality rate for the fish, with close to half of the mature population dying between 2012 and 2014. \u201cBasically, the fish aren\u2019t living to be old enough to spawn,\u201d notes Fuller. The combined factors of declining stock, high mortality rates, and lower spawning potential could have severe impacts on future generations of 3Ps cod.\nEven more alarming, the Laurentian North Atlantic Cod, of which 3Ps is a subset, was assessed by the Committee on the Status of Endangered Species in Canada (COSEWIC) as endangered in 2010, and have remained under consideration for endangered species protection through Canada\u2019s Species At Risk Act (SARA) since 2013. The MSC has ignored this important scientific designation. Given the near endangered status of northern Atlantic Cod, the EAC has raised serious questions as to why the assessment process was permitted to go ahead in the first place, beginning in 2014. The David Suzuki Foundation has argued that 3Ps should have never even been entered into pre-assessment through a 2011 Fishery Improvement Project, which was monitored by the World Wildlife Fund. Alan Sinclair, the co-chair of COSEWIC\u2019s Marine Fish Committee and a retired DFO scientist, stated, \u201cthe 3Ps certification never should have happened.\u201d Beyond the pre-assessment and assessment phases, how is 3Ps \u2013 a fishery associated with a species at moderate to explicit risk of endangerment \u2013 allowed to achieve \u201ccertified sustainable\u201d status as a commercial seafood source? Moreover, how can a certifying body like the MSC effectively ignore government and scientific expertise?\nTo begin to answer these questions, one needs to examine what the Marine Stewardship Council is, and how it operates. The MSC is a private, international organization dedicated to the certification and eco-labeling of wild-caught, sustainable seafood products. Established in 1997 through an agreement between the World Wildlife Fund and multinational Unilever, the MSC was launched as a response to the collapse of the Canadian cod fisheries and feared impacts on both the environment and global economy. While its mission is rooted in the former, its methodology privileges the latter; that is, the MSC works through the seafood industry to incite ecological change.\nBy being applicable to each facet of the seafood supply chain, the MSC\u2019s certification program ensure that their standards of sustainability and traceability are applicable to all of the products that feature their blue consumer eco-label. MSC partners with a third-party evaluator to examine the practices of commercial fisheries, brands, retailers, and restaurants to match its independent MSC Fishery Standard. The MSC prides itself on the scientific rigour of its assessment standard, through which the 3Ps fishery has been certified, along with McDonald\u2019s Filet-o-Fish, created from MSC-certified sustainable wild Alaskan Pollock, and seafood products available through global retailers like Wal-Mart.\nThe MSC consumer eco-label, as it appears on cans of budget brand no name\u00ae Wild Pink Salmon.\nWhat is important to note is that the MSC works through the industrial food system, and specifically with large fisheries and multinational corporations. Ostensibly, this targeting of major global buyers to provide a model for sustainable seafood consumption will create market incentives for independent and smaller-scale seafood businesses to change their practices. Furthermore, by initiating this trickle-down influence from large business to smaller business, the MSC\u2019s theory of change is that greater stewardship and conservation of seafood resources will result. Yet, this logic is based on the same types of commercial enterprise largely responsible for the dangers facing marine-based wildlife. While it could make sense to target the most prominent entities in the seafood supply chain, it seems paradoxical to present McDonald\u2019s and Wal-Mart \u2013 usually the icons of unsustainable and exploitative practices \u2013 as the faces of marine stewardship.\nBy extension of their partnerships with large multinationals, the MSC\u2019s ethos also upholds high levels of consumption. According to Jay Lugar, the Program Director for the MSC\u2019s Canadian office, \u201c[the MSC] believes offsetting or curbing demand for certified sustainable seafood would do more harm than good until at least we get to the point where mankind is fully managing our ocean resources.\u201d For the MSC, the very mechanism that ensures the sustained livelihood of marine wildlife is the public\u2019s demand to consume it \u2013 a position that could easily be construed as contradictory.\nThe seeming inconsistencies of MSC\u2019s approach become less puzzling in light of the Council\u2019s primary income sources. This includes charitable grants from funders such as the Walton Family Foundation (of Wal-Mart fame), which contributed $2.5 million USD to the MSC in 2014 \u2013 more than half of the $4.6 million USD that the MSC earned in charitable grant income that year. The MSC also generated 75% of its annual income from licensing its consumer eco-label in 2014 \u2013 a practice buoyed by the organization\u2019s corporate partnerships with powerhouses like Wal-Mart, Ikea, and Canada\u2019s Loblaws. While the MSC is a non-profit environmental organization, its mission is severely compromised by its mutual support of the global seafood industry and its reliance on the royalties generated by its eco-label.\nMSC \u201ccertified sustainable\u201d offerings created by and available at Canadian retailer Loblaw\u2019s. According to their 2014-2015 Annual Report, MSC has certified 10% of the world\u2019s wild caught seafood. Image source: Intrafish.org\nAs Fuller has pointed out, the MSC is independent of government authority and uses its own evaluative criteria by which the health of marine species is assessed. However, there is one with one key exception: MSC policy states that it will not allow any species to enter into assessment that is actively protected under binding national or international conservation law. The problem remains, however, that any species assessed as endangered but lacking in explicit legal protections can still be entered into the certification process. In the case of Atlantic Cod, since the species has not been listed under SARA, it is fair game for certification under MSC rules. Sinclair points out that Canada has a poor track record of listing marine species under SARA, an issue he attributes to the DFO. \u201cThere are not enough people calling the DFO to task on how it protects endangered species. Marine fish species are consistently not listed under SARA. There are Atlantic Cod species that are not even sustaining themselves independent of fishing, yet these species are not given protection,\u201d said Sinclair.\nSo what does this mean in the context of Newfoundland\u2019s 3Ps cod fishery?\nMSC\u2019s privileging of large multinational entities, such as Icewater Seafoods and Ocean Choice International, leaves smaller, integral stakeholders out. Icewater and Ocean Choice were the only two fish harvesters monitored in the 3Ps certification process. This included a three-year Fishery Improvement Project as a precursor for certification, as well as the development of a conservation strategy for the fishing zone. No other fish harvesters were actively involved.\nAccording to Fuller, \u201cthis is a huge problem \u2013 what we [the EAC] pointed out is that the client group [Icewater and Ocean Choice] only fish offshore, and this accounts for just 15% of the Total Annual Catch.\u201d In other words, 85% of the cod actually caught in the 3Ps fishery zone was not a part of the MSC\u2019s certification process. This directly impacts 3Ps\u2019 small-scale, inshore fish harvesters, represented by the Fish, Food, and Allied Workers Union (FFAW). Keith Sullivan, President of FFAW-Unifor, indicated FFAW\u2019s desire to be full partners in the 3Ps certification. According to Sullivan, \u201charvesters are most affected by conditions related to sustainability labels such as the MSC and should be part of the process. It is logical that harvesters be members of client groups in such a process where they have an ability to proactively work to improve sustainability.\u201d It remains that this was not the case, which is especially concerning given that FFAW harvesters constitute a major component of Icewater and Ocean Choice\u2019s business. Just three years ago, 420 of the area\u2019s inshore harvesters sold their inshore catch directly to Icewater and Ocean Choice for processing. As a key stakeholder in the 3Ps fishery, FFAW members\u2019 omission from the certification process represents an alarming gap in the data.\nIf the MSC\u2019s oversight isn\u2019t problematic enough, Sinclair, the EAC, and FFAW have also questioned the three-year target for the 3Ps cod\u2019s spawning stock biomass (SSB), or fish mature enough to spawn. The certification\u2019s third-party evaluator, Acoura, has set the target reference point for the spawning stock biomass at 20,000 tonnes \u2013 an amount that the cod has only surpassed twice in the past 32 years, specifically in 2003 and 2004. Currently, DFO researchers assert that the spawning stock biomass is closer to just 16,000 tonnes. At the same time, a condition of the certification report states that by the end of the third year, it has to be demonstrated that the stock is at or fluctuating around its target reference point. Fuller and the EAC have pointed out that it is unlikely that this target will be met, given the recent declines in stock and the high mortality rate of the fish. Both Fuller and Sinclair also emphasize that a 20,000 tonne target is an exceedingly low measure of sustainability for a fish species that numbered close to a quarter million tonnes just decades ago. From an on-the-ground harvester\u2019s perspective, FFAW believes that the DFO\u2019s assessment of the spawning stock biomass is too optimistic. According to Sullivan, \u201cinshore harvesters are concerned that the stock is in a much poorer state than the models suggest.\u201d\nOver the past 32 years, the cod of the 3Ps zone has only surpassed the target twice. Currently, the number of mature fish is approximately 4,000 tonnes below the target of 20,000 tonnes. As well, the 2015 quota for cod in the 3Ps zone is 13,490 tonnes. This is 76% of the target for sustainability, and 89% of the actual number of mature fish. Either way, catching the quota could devastate the cod population in 3Ps.\nThe likelihood of the cod reaching the 20,000 tonne target seems even more problematic given that the certification process has not decreased the quota in the 3Ps fishery. Specifically, the quota has not dropped from its current amount of 13,490 tonnes \u2013 roughly 76% \u2013 89% of the spawning stock biomass, and triple the amount of cod actually being caught in the fishery, which averages around 4,000 \u2013 5,000 tonnes per year. If this quota were actually met by fish harvesters \u2013 which it could be, even with the fishery\u2019s \u201ccertified sustainable\u201d status \u2013 the cod population in the 3Ps fishery could be completely decimated.\nOver a 50 year period between 1960 and 1990, the reported landings in the Canadian Cod fisheries (fish actually caught) averaged 50,000 tonnes per year, pointing to a much higher fish population in the past \u2013 nearly a quarter million tonnes. During the early 1990s, reported landings tumbled as the Atlantic Cod population collapsed. The target for the 3Ps zone represents a low measure of sustainability, given the health of the overall Atlantic Cod population in past decades.\nIn spite of these issues, the MSC\u2019s Lugar insists that based on Acoura\u2019s assessment, \u201cthe 3Ps cod has so far replenished enough to be managed sustainably, and that the rebuilding plan in place will ensure the replenishment continues.\u201d If this is true, how can the majority of the 3Ps catch be ignored in the assessment process? Why are the targets so unrealistic? Moreover, how can the quota remain at levels that could effectively extinguish the population of an already at-risk fish species?\nThese are key questions that have underscored the Ecology Action Centre\u2019s objections, which were invoked under the MSC\u2019s formal objection procedures. \u201cIt makes no sense,\u201d said Fuller. \u201cThe certification and the quota should reflect what is actually being caught, and who is catching it.\u201d\nAn independent adjudicator in the EAC\u2019s objection hearing, which cost the organization $15,000 CDN to enact, dismissed their complaints last February.\nEven though the accreditation process has passed, the question remains: Is the certification of 3Ps a potential trigger for a repeat of the Canadian cod fisheries collapse? Or perhaps something worse?\nAll of the 3Ps assessment documents, including objections filed by the Ecology Action Centre and David Suzuki Foundation, can be found here.\nTags: Diana McNally, Ecology Action Centre, Marine Stewardship Council, Newfoundland, North Atlantic Cod, sustainable fishing\n\u00bb GFR Opinion Piece \u00bb Certified Sustainable?: At-risk Atlantic Cod Threatened By MSC Endorsement\nHop Vodka",

        "title": "Tom Cruise NOT Quitting Scientology For Daughter Suri, Despite Report",
        "raw_content": "Tom Cruise NOT Quitting Scientology For Daughter Suri, Despite Report\nBy Andrew Shuster\t| 11:04 am, January 31, 2018\nTom Cruise is not quitting Scientology to reunite with his estranged daughter Suri Cruise, despite an inaccurate tabloid report. Gossip Cop can exclusively correct this story. We\u2019re told it\u2019s not true.\nCruise hasn\u2019t been seen with his 11-year-old daughter in more than four years, but according to the latest cover of Star, the actor is ready to cut ties with his religion in order to repair their relationship. A supposed \u201csource\u201d tells the magazine, \u201cIf he wants her back, he\u2019ll have to walk away from the church, which has been a huge part of his life, to say the least. Leaving Scientology would be the toughest decision he\u2019ll ever have to make.\u201d\nThe outlet\u2019s questionable insider goes on to say that Cruise is nervous about defecting from the organization because he fears they\u2019ll set out to destroy him. \u201cIf Scientology declared open season on Tom, they could bury him, since they\u2019ve probably got all sorts of dirt on him from his audit sessions,\u201d says the alleged source.\n\u201cIt\u2019s an unspoken threat, but Tom has to be aware that the church would do everything in its power to keep him from leaving,\u201d adds the suspicious source, who further contends that in order to leave the religion without repercussions, Cruise may try to cut a deal \u201cwhere he would be left in peace as long as he doesn\u2019t speak out against Scientology. That way, both sides win.\u201d\nBut Gossip Cop checked in with a source close to the situation, who exclusively assures us on condition of anonymity that the movie star has no plans to quit the church. Cruise, who\u2019s been a committed member of Scientology for more than 30 years, recently described it as a \u201cbeautiful religion.\u201d He added, \u201cWithout it, I wouldn\u2019t be where I am. I\u2019m incredibly proud.\u201d Additionally, Cruise hasn\u2019t seen his daughter Suri in several years, and there\u2019s nothing to indicate he\u2019s going to reverse course and reach out to her now.\nIt\u2019s also worth noting, Star has published several false stories about Cruise\u2019s complicated relationship with his daughter. Gossip Cop previously busted the tabloid when it falsely claimed Suri was making secret phone calls to her dad behind Katie Holmes\u2019 back. We also shot down a phony story about the young girl begging her dad via Skype to spend time with her. This latest article on the subject is similarly fabricated.\nCelebrity Rumors Star Magazine Suri Cruise Tom Cruise",

        "raw_content": "Palestine\u2019s art of resistance brings hope\n\u201dBenny G the clown\u201d, painted on the Israel's Apartheid Wall, referencing Ben Gurion, first prime minister of Israel.\nLara Chamas is a Melbourne based Lebanese-Australian artist, focusing on political art. She has recently returned from a visit to Palestine and spoke to Green Left Weekly\u2019s Chris Peterson about the trip. You can see her work on Instragram, @lara_chamas_artist or on Facebook at lara.c.artist.\nWhat made you want to visit Palestine? Which parts did you visit?\nThe most important thing to me is justice. I wanted to visit Palestine to be able to fully grasp the injustice, and hopefully spread awareness, facts, and stories I learned during my trip. I am an artist studying my honours in fine art. My work is political in nature and I intend to spread my message visually, so it can reach as many people as possible.\nI thought it hypocritical to be speaking and advocating for freedom when I have never experienced what it is like to be occupied. When the opportunity presented itself to go on exchange to the International Academy of Art Palestine, I didn't think twice before accepting.\nI was in Palestine for three weeks. I was studying in Ramallah, a self-proclaimed bubble from the occupation. I also visited Bethlehem, Jerusalem, and Hebron.\nDid you see much of the art in West Bank?\nDuring my time at the academy, I was surrounded by contemporary art. I saw a few exhibitions and was able to be featured in one. Contemporary art is slowly making its mark on modern parts of Palestine, like Ramallah and Jerusalem. The standard is impeccable, much like contemporary art in Australia, but the content is almost always about the Palestinian struggle.\nMore interestingly, there is street art everywhere in Ramallah and Bethlehem, both of which are not heavily militarised. Ramallah\u2019s street art ranged from the Israeli flag painted on garbage tips, \u201cfree Palestine\u201d and Palestinian flags, to highly detailed portraits and murals of people who have died, or historical figures such as Yasser Arafat.\nIn Bethlehem there is the same, but much less quantity, additionally there is a lot of biblical street art.\nWhat is everyday life like in the West Bank?\nIt is different in different parts. Ramallah is very free, people wake up, go to work or school, many children work instead of study. You have a big lunch with your family around 4pm as your main meal, have a light dinner around 10pm and go to bed for the next day.\nChildren play from the end of lunch to midnight in the streets. Ramallah is generally safe for anyone to go around at night.\nRamallah also has a night life. Thursday nights from 8pm onwards, you will find the entire town lit up and alive. Alcohol is free flowing, everyone will be having a drink, smoking a shisha, later in the night there will be music and dancing till the early morning. Friday is a day off for all.\nBethlehem is much like Ramallah, but much quieter. Children will play indoors at night instead, after 7pm most of the city shuts down.\nIn Jerusalem, everything shuts down at 5pm. Generally, Palestinians fear leaving after dark. From then on, everyone stays at home with family.\nAs Jerusalem is divided between what Israelis call \u201cpermanent residents\u201d, which are Palestinians with Jerusalem ID, who were born and live there, and Jewish settlers.\nPalestinians are not welcome and not guaranteed safe outside of the Old City and East Jerusalem. Jewish settlers can be found everywhere, even in Palestinian territories.\nJerusalem is heavily militarised. Life is fairly normal, you can see a doctor, go shopping, all with the addition of armed Israeli soldiers every few metres, asking for your ID card, with possibility of delay and hassle.\nHebron is by far the hardest place to live. There are soldiers everywhere you look, and you are stopped constantly. Within the town there are checkpoints you must go through to get from one end of the town to another. The occupation is very present.\nAlso there are Jewish settlers within Hebron, in the West Bank, which is illegal. There are certain parts of the town that are abandoned. Palestinians fear for their lives if they use roads close to the settlers, such as in the now self-proclaimed \u201cghost town\u201d where there is no one since a massacre by a Jewish settler in 1994. Jewish settlers are also armed, they can go jogging or walking their dog, all with a machine gun.\nHebron is a very poor area, people\u2019s day consists of getting up and working or begging. Children are not excused from this, being hassled by soldiers and going home and staying there from 5pm on.\nThere are usually daily conflicts in Hebron between Palestinians and Israeli soldiers, so people try to keep to themselves. One market area even is fenced off from above, as Jewish settlers will throw down rubbish, rocks, alcohol and even urine onto the Palestinians below.\nIt is also very hot, reaching 45-50 degrees in summer. In winter it goes below freezing and snows. Despite the heat, as Hebron is a very religious town, there is a dress code of past the ankles and elbows. Every female over 10 is veiled. When I was there I was the only non-veiled female.\nI met a few women who wore the veil out of obligation and fear, not because they are religious. Oppression and occupation comes from both the military and society in Hebron.\nThe infamous Apartheid Wall was built by Israel as a barrier along the official border Israel claims. What was it like to see it?\nThe first time I saw the wall I was overwhelmed beyond comprehension. It was around six times my height. In most areas, the wall isn't safe to go up to due to soldiers and cameras, even for a tourist. In Bethlehem the wall is accessible and reasonably safe to access.\nThe wall in Bethlehem is covered in street art, including works by Banksy, and messages of resistance and support from tourists all around the world. I met two Chinese men who sprayed \u201cChina and Palestine friendship\u201d on the wall.\nYou can't help but feel belittled and overwhelmed by such a monstrous obstruction, but in Bethlehem, when you see all the art and resistance, it gave me some hope.\nDid you attend any protests or see examples of people resisting?\nIt was essential I keep a low profile, as I entered and exited through Ben Gurion airport in Tel Aviv. People found to be politically active can be hassled, interrogated, strip-searched, detained or banned from entering the country. I was detained for five hours upon arrival straight from the plane, due to my Lebanese background.\nI only heard of one protest by the family of journalists and political prisoners detained in Israeli prisons. People are scared of making demonstrations, so protests are rare and small.\nIn freer areas such as Ramallah I was often told \u201cus living our lives, going about a normal day, being as happy and healthy as we can, that's how we resist them\u201d.\nIn Hebron, I saw a six-year-old boy being cornered by four large Israeli soldiers for apparently taking a photo of them. Older people around advocated for the boy and tried to help, but couldn't do much.\nPeople are scared to resist, because they could lose their life. I went through a checkpoint in Hebron where 11 people had been shot and killed.",

I went to the University of Georgia for part of my schooling. It\u2019s a great school! I shared more details about my college path in various answers at the Wildlife Careers tab at GrowingDeer.com under the Ask Grant tab.\nMost importantly I encourage you to intentionally seek God\u2019s will for your life! This is the most important step you can take toward your career.\nHello Mr. Grant, my name is Adam gross, I am 21 years old and I am currently serving in the United States Navy. I\u2019m from a small town in Michigan. I love hunting, not just whitetail deer but other wildlife as well. I just had a couple questions career paths in the wildlife field. Where should I start? What steps should I take to one day have my own tv hunting show, or what classes should I pursue when I attend a university when I get out. Thank you.\nThank you for your service to the United States!\nThere are many paths to working in the hunting industry. I studied wildlife biology and volunteered through the Student Conservation Association. I continued studying wildlife biology during a Master\u2019s and Ph.D. program. I\u2019ve shared which schools and classes I took in responses to questions in the Wildlife Careers category at Ask Grant.\nI started as a consulting wildlife biologist and focused on helping private and industrial (timber companies) landowners improving their properties. As my career advanced I decided to share the same information through a show versus only to single landowners one at a time.\nOthers in the industry started by being a cameraman, or simply working for a company in the hunting industry.\nThe best advice I can give you is to seek God\u2019s will for you life. Purposely pray that God will show you His will for your life and then follow that path. That\u2019s the best way to be successful in everything you do! This doesn\u2019t mean life will be easy, but you will always make the right choice.\nI am a junior in high school I am looking at going into wildlife biology and I would like to know where you received your degree from. Also, I was thinking about what classes to take senior year to be prepared for college.\n-Bradley Axe\nI received my bachelors in Zoology and Master\u2019s in Zoology with an emphasis in wildlife management from Missouri State University. I then attended the University of Georgia. Hurricane Hugo demolished my study area so I switched to Clemson and finished a Ph.D. in Forest and Wildlife Management.\nI suggest you take any writing and oral communication classes! Being a good communicator will help you immensely with many college classes! I suggest you take any advanced placement classes as this will allow you to take more specialized classes in college.\nMost importantly I recommend you intentionally seek God\u2019s will for your life!\nWhat all classes did you take in college to be a wild life biologist and thanks for inspiring me\nI took lots of biology, chemistry, and forestry classes. I really enjoyed all the \u201ccritter classes\u201d such as mammalogy (study of mammals) ichthyology (study of fish), ornithology (study of birds), plant taxonomy, etc. However, I benefitted from all the classes including communication classes (both written and oral). Many colleges have a wildlife management degree program and the classes to obtain that degree will be outlined at that school.\nThe Wildlife Society requires certain classes to become a certified wildlife biologist. I also completed all classes they required.\nMost importantly I recommend you intentionally seek God\u2019s will for your life. If you follow His will you will succeed!\nHey Grant, my name is Nicholas and I\u2019m an 18 year old construction worker in Colorado. I love nothing more than the outdoors and I\u2019m extremely curious about what your college education entailed. It would interest me greatly to hear what you have to say on that subject. Thank you and I love your videos and especially your reminder of God\u2019s gift and greatness each and every time. Thank you again.\nMy father was a builder and I worked construction (from sweeping floors and picking up the job site to framing houses) from fifth grade into college. I enjoyed those days!\nI started at a relatively small local college and majored in zoology with a minor in information systems management (computer programming). I also volunteered through a program called Student Conservation Association with the Bureau of Land Management in Elko, Nevada. This was a milestone in my career advancement. I then did a master\u2019s degree and my research was about scrape behavior of white-tailed deer. I then started a Masters/P.h.D. program at University of Georgia. Hurricane Hugo destroyed my study area and I transferred to the Clemson University and finished my Ph.D., studying rub behavior and the human dimensions of Quality Deer Management.\nCurrently the University of Georgia and Mississippi State have great wildlife management programs. However, I\u2019m a huge believer that all of us should seek God\u2019s will for our lives and pursue that mission to the best of our ability. I also know students should go to the best school in their area of interest they can afford.\nUltimately it boils down to listening to God and pursuing His will intentionally!\nI\u2019ve written a lot on this subject. You can find them in Ask Grant and learn more.\nDr. Woods, my name is Nic and I\u2019m currently considering being a wildlife biologist and or a land manager. I have a few questions about this occupation. Is this field a good one to consider? Is it tough to make a solid living doing this? Do you just have to know the right people or have a family that owns land? Any reply would help me. Thank you.\nThere was a book years ago that listed 150 professions. Wildlife biologist were rated 149 lowest in salary\u2026\nWith that said I believe we all should do what God built us to do. I never wanted to be anything but a deer biologist \u2013 from the age of six till today. If you truly believe you should be a wildlife biologist then go to a good school like The University of Georgia or Mississippi State and pursue the career. If you are really good at being a wildlife biologist you\u2019ll get a job and make a better than average salary for that profession.\nOne of the best ways to learn if you really like a profession is to do an internship in that position. I also encourage you to pray intentionally about what God wishes for your life.\nFinally, meeting and spending time with established folks in a profession that interest you is always a wise choice. I started my career by volunteering a summer in the state of Nevada and worked with mule deer. It was a great springboard to my career!\nI\u2019m a 17 year old junior at Dunmore High School in Pennsylvania. I have been hunting since I was in 4th grade and have been ever since. I love learning about new hunting tips and property management. I look forward to seeing your videos to help me learn more. I\u2019m going to start looking at colleges later this year. I would like to become a wildlife biologist when or another career along the lines of one. I was just wondering what you have degrees in and/or what other degrees I could be looking for when searching for a college. If you could give me any insight on degrees or colleges, preferably in the eastern part of the country, that would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.\nI\u2019m proud of you for being proactive about your career! There\u2019s much competition for wildlife biology jobs. Many colleges offer a wildlife management or wildlife biology degree. If you wish to work with game animals like deer and turkey you\u2019ll be best served to pursue such a degree. Currently the best wildlife programs are probably at the University of Georgia and Mississippi State! A high percentage of grads from these programs get jobs in the wildlife field. There is a major difference in schools and the percentage of their grads that find employment in their chosen field. You should pick a school based on your goals and on the basis of percentage of successful job placement.\nYou should know that wildlife biology is traditionally a low paying profession. It often pays half what other professions make \u2013 literally.\nMost importantly I encourage you to intentionally seek God\u2019s will for your life. You will be happiest and most successful if you are pursuing the path God created specifically for you!\nI am currently going to college to obtain a degree in wildlife biology and conservation. I am interested in knowing what classes you took and any recommendations or suggestions you\u2019d have for me as I pursue this major.\nA heavy load of the sciences (biology, botany, forestry and wildlife) are a given. However, it seems many students that desire to enter the wildlife field don\u2019t realize the amount of writing and oral communication necessary to be effective. I strongly suggest you, through course work or practice, attempt to become a very effective written and oral communicator. I am very confident communication skills will improve your life no matter the profession you choose.\nMy name is Matt and I am a third year college student (working toward a degree in Urban Forestry and Arboriculture). I have been watching all of your videos. The projects you do and the things you are able to study are incredible. After watching your show and seeing your title of wildlife biologist I started looking into careers in wildlife biology. I am seriously considering changing my plans and staying in school for a bit longer and getting a degree in Wildlife Management/Biology with a minor in Conservation Biology. I was hoping that you could give me some pointers and tips about this field of study and the career opportunities (possibly even a job outlook). I am passionate about white-tailed deer as I am a bow hunter through and through and everything else is merely done to pass the time until bow season. I have taken a great interest in altering the habitat on our family owned land and my next project is to ease into trapping with the help of one of my knowledgeable friends.\nAny knowledge and information you can share with me to guide me would be greatly appreciated. It really means a lot to me to get some insight and guidance from someone so successful in this field. Thank you very much for your time in reading this.\nMatt (Wisconsin)\nI\u2019ve addressed several questions about becoming a wildlife biologist. You might check out my answer to Getting Involved and use the search feature to find more answers. I strongly believe that most folks can be successful at any occupation that they are passionate about. That doesn\u2019t mean entering or advancing in that occupation will be easy or profitable. You should know that passion about hunting is not the same as passion about being a wildlife biologist. The two certainly complement each other. However, many wildlife biologists (including myself) spend more time helping other hunters and landowners than we do hunting. My strongest suggestion for you would be to spend a summer as an intern with a wildlife biologist that works in a specific area of your choosing. Spending a summer, even on a volunteer basis, is much less expensive in terms of dollars and time, then changing your degree and finding out that it was a bad choice. I believe that internships or similar programs are extremely beneficial to folks deciding which career path to take. I volunteered a summer through the Student Conservation Organization when I was a junior in college. I worked for the Bureau of Land Management at the Elko, Nevada District. I was only paid $25 per week and provided a small trailer for living quarters. It was a fabulous experience. My best counsel for you is to do an internship and see what being a wildlife biologist is really like before making a huge change in your degree program.\nI am seeking advice in regards to what avenues are available to pursue a wildlife sciences or management degree. I graduated from Auburn several years ago with a history degree. I know Mississippi State and Auburn are well respected in the field but neither offer any online degrees. I live in Mobile, Alabama and was wondering if you knew of anyway to further my education in this field within driving distance or online. If not a traditional university then please recommend any other outlets that might help my resume in working in the wildlife management field (i.e. QDMA courses, etc.).\nGaines,\nI\u2019d start by defining your objective. If it is to gain employment in the wildlife field, then your objective needs to be further defined. Do you wish to work specifically with deer or in the wildlife field in general? If you wish to work with deer, then what type of habitat do you wish to work in? A degree from south Texas may prepare you very well for working in that habitat type, but some of what you studied may not apply to work in Alabama. The deer management principles will be the same, but the plants, soils, etc., will be substantially different. The wildlife field is very competitive, so you need to refine your objectives and take a targeted approach. I schooled in Missouri, Georgia, and Clemson and worked for the Bureau of Land Management in Nevada. The diversity of my education was as much of a benefit as any course.\nIf you wish to learn more about white-tailed deer and habitat management, but are not seeking employment, then the QDMA courses are outstanding! However, I doubt they are enough to qualify you for a job with most state agencies. They are perfect for property managers in the private industry.\nI\u2019m not familiar with any online programs that truly prepare you to be wildlife biologist. I believe the field portion of education is just as important as the bookwork.\nFinally, the major professor/advisor you pick is just as important as the school. Drs. Lynn Robins, David Guynn, and Larry Marchinton were very influential on my career. All of them gave me a lot of room to grow and they strongly encouraged field experience. I\u2019m indebted to all of them.\nI am a high school senior in central Missouri and I do not know what I want to become. I love to hunt, hunt, hunt and I don\u2019t want to get away from it as I go onto college! I\u2019m big into filming and want to get better and better! What job career would get me outdoors and let me have time to enjoy every season?\nAs far as I know, there are very few jobs where folks actually make a living hunting. The folks I know that hunt the most are folks that have worked hard at some career and have built up enough seniority/vacation time to have enough days to hunt. I have friends that are UPS drivers, train engineers, etc., and they hunt many more days a year than I do.\nFor example, most wildlife biologists I know are working during most of the hunting seasons. Many go into the profession because they enjoy hunting, but they often find they don\u2019t make enough wages to afford hunts in faraway places, and don\u2019t have enough time to hunt close to home.\nYou should accept that work consumes much of an adult\u2019s life. I think the most important characteristic of a good job is doing something that you enjoy and which allows you to use your God-given talents. Honestly consider what you really like to do. As a criteria, what you would like to do when you are old or in harsh conditions? Eliminate what you don\u2019t consider fun when days are not going well. If you don\u2019t find it fun sometimes now, you will really dislike it when you do it daily for 20+ years. Next consider what skills you have naturally. Pair the always fun with natural skills and you will have a happy and successful career.\nI am an Air Force Veteran that recently graduated from Missouri State University with a wildlife conservation and management degree. I currently live in Lebanon, Missouri and really enjoy living in the Ozarks. I know you know a lot of people in the outdoor industry and I was wondering if you happen to know anyone that is looking for a wildlife manager or technician? I realize you probably get tons of email inquires about jobs, but I figured it was worth a shot. It\u2019s not easy to get connected to private individuals that are looking for these type of employees. Any help would be appreciated.\nThank you for your service to our country!! I don\u2019t currently know of any property manager\u2019s positions. You are wise to continue staying in touch with folks in the industry. You might also consider attending events (such as the QDMA\u2019s banquets, convention, etc.) to meet owners of properties managed for wildlife.",

        "raw_content": "EVARISTO STARTING AS TRUE FRESHMAN\n18-year-old Gabby Evaristo continued her soccer journey this past weekend and has accomplished quite a resume as a student athlete.\nEvaristo started at midfielder for CSU Bernardino, who played the defending national champion Grand Valley State at 9:00 AM GST Saturday.\nFirst, she is the second youngest player on the Guam Women\u2019s Soccer team (Masakada) and has been a starter since 16. She is proud of her Chamorro heritage.\nSecond, she was born and raised on Guam. At 14, she made a decision and with the support of her parents to relocate to San Diego, California. She had success with Albion Soccer Club, which is very successful at the state and national youth level. She also played at Hoover High School. It was a struggle as the team only had 3 wins over 3 years.\nEvaristo, during that time, improved her skill set. She was 1-of-100 high school girls in the country to be selected to play in the 2012 Puma Women\u2019s Elite Showcase in Maryland. In 2014, she was hand selected by Hyundai USA for one of their 2014 World Cup commercials.\nShe returned her senior year at Hoover. Her goal was accomplished as she signed a letter of intent to play Division II Soccer with Cal State San Bernardino on February 11, 2015. Gabby though still had unfinished business with her soccer team making a playoff push. The senior lead her team which had gained experience through the tough three seasons.\nHoover rallied to win four straight which included two playoff games. The season ended with a loss in CIF San Diego Section 2015 Girls Soccer Division V Championships. Evaristo was named first team Central League and Hoover won their first league championship.\nhttp://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/news/2015/apr/07/2014-15-all-league-girls-soccer/\n[youtube id=\u201d5zow8TTyMcc\u201d width=\u201d620\u2033 height=\u201d360\u2033]",

        "raw_content": "Holocaust Survivor and Mandolin Player, Aged 97, Gets Lincoln Center Debut\nEmily Kessler will perform at the 80th Anniversary Benefit Gala for the nonprofit organization Blue Card, dedicated to providing assistance to Holocaust survivors.\nRaffi Wineburg Nov 04, 2014 2:13 AM\nEmily Kessler.Screenshot / JTA\nYehoram Gaon, turning 75 and still `singing in full voice'\nJTA - For Emily Kessler, a Holocaust survivor, the prospect of performing at Lincoln Center\u2019s Avery Fisher Hall is less worrying than figuring out what to wear for the occasion.\n\u201cI came to the conclusion,\u201d she said, in an interview at her apartment on Manhattan\u2019s Upper West Side, \u201cthat what is the difference between playing in front of three people instead of 300?\u201d\nAt 97, Kessler is short and slightly hunched. Along with old photographs and birthday cards, prescription pill bottles are scattered throughout her apartment.\n\u201cAge is not easy,\u201d she says.\nNevertheless, the soon-to-be 98-year-old is still sharp. And although she moves at a crawling pace to retrieve old black-and-white pictures, when she sits down to play the mandolin, her fingers work just fine.\nKessler will perform and sing songs in Yiddish and Russian Monday night at the 80th Anniversary Benefit Gala for the nonprofit organization Blue Card \u2014 the only organization in the United States solely dedicated to providing assistance to Holocaust survivors like herself.\nKessler has been a Blue Card client for almost two decades. They\u2019ve arranged free dental work, orthopedic shoes and even all-expense-paid retreats in the Berkshires. Masha Pearl, Blue Card\u2019s executive director, approached Kessler about playing at the gala several months earlier. Kessler, who likes to be prepared, started practicing right away.\n\u201cTo be prepared,\u201d she says, \u201cis to respect other people, and to respect yourself, your dignity.\u201d\nShe had no chance to prepare in 1941, when Nazi officers came to her home in Khmilnyk, Ukraine and shot her parents and brother in front of her. And nothing could have prepared the young widow (her husband, a Soviet soldier, was killed during the Nazi invasion) to care for her 2-year-old son in a Ukrainian labor camp, to treat the open sores on her wrists and arms with nonexistent medical supplies, or to gather the strength for work \u2014 construction and toilet cleaning \u2014 without food or water.\nSomehow she did, however. And her survival, which she calls a \u201cmiracle\u201d still confounds her today.\n\u201cHow did we manage there without food or water? I don\u2019t know, for that, I try not to explain, because it\u2019s difficult.\u201d\nKessler eventually escaped the camp, bringing her son along, using false papers. She lived on the run for two years before relocating to Kyrgyztan. There, in her late 20s, she tried to reassemble the broken pieces of her life. She graduated from university and worked as an editor in a publishing house.\nBut the damage was done. After the war, the \u201ccatastrophe\u201d as she calls it, Kessler was plagued by guilt, sadness. She lived in a constant state of mourning.\n\u201cI was very sad, not smiling. I thought, \u2018I don\u2019t have the right to smile\u2019. It felt like a crime, like I was guilty of smiling.\u201d\nThe mandolin, which she began playing at age 10 in her school band, symbolized a time of happiness, so Kessler avoided it entirely.\nIn Kyrgyztan, where Kessler lived after the war, anti-Semitism was still rampant. So at 60 years old, knowing no one in the U.S. and speaking scant English, Kessler immigrated to the United States (her son, who now lives in Michigan, immigrated several years after her).\n\u201cI was happy to leave,\u201d she said. \u201cI had an opportunity to go, and I took it.\u201d\nFor five years though, she was still \u201cnot ready\u201d to play music. But walking in Manhattan one day in 1985, she saw a mandolin in the window of a music store.\n\u201cAfter time, you think to yourself, \u2018how long should I be in mourning?\u2019\u201d she said. She bought the instrument, and has been playing for the last 30 years.\n\u201cIt helped just to go away from the sadness,\u201d she said. \u201cIt is not always good to feel this sad. I used to be on the street, and without any thinking, I would feel my heart to be full of tears. No more, now it\u2019s okay.\u201d\nThings move slowly these days for Kessler. A cancer survivor who grapples with various health problems and relies on a pacemaker, she spends a good deal of time with doctors, but nonetheless manages to live on her own. She likes a light beer every so often, and going to Upper West Side cafes, although she thinks the portions are always too big.\nShe still goes on walks around the neighborhood, and is often asked what her secret is for living a long time. She shrugs, \u201cI don\u2019t know. My secret is that there is no secret.\u201d",

        "title": "High Functioning Stress: Spot The Signs",
        "raw_content": "High functioning stress: know the signs before you hit burnout\nGot a perfectionist streak and a need to be liked?\nYu Tsai for Harper's Bazaar UK\nIt's Time to Talk Day: a national awareness event that encourages all of us to check in with one another, maybe have a chat about the state of our heads, and normalise the reality that one in four of us will deal with mental health problems at some point in our lives.\nWhether you've been medically diagnosed with a condition or not, there's power in exploring what's going on up there. To mark the occasion, WH is re-sharing this 2017 feature by writer and author Dolly Alderton, about her experience of worrying herself, quite literally, sick.\nSome nights, I lie in bed and stare at my ceiling. I think about all the people who probably hate me: the bosses who believe I\u2019m incompetent, the exes comparing notes on what a nightmare I can be and the women gossiping about what a bad friend I am.\nOther times, I sit on the Tube and contemplate the many illnesses I\u2019m convinced I have. I associate every head bump with a bleed on the brain, and all those smoked cigarettes and alcohol-fuelled nights out with carcinogenic additives. I imagine a silent cancer filling my body. Is that sniffle as innocent as it sounds?\nUnless you are a very close friend or family member, you would never, ever know any of this. From the outside, I\u2019m as easy-breezy as they get. I\u2019m successful \u2013 I\u2019ve had a column in a national newspaper since I was 26 \u2013 and I\u2019m fun-loving, busy and sociable; not your stereotypical anxious wallflower. It\u2019s not something I talk about. I\u2019m terrified of what people would think of me if they knew that I have some of the common symptoms of anxiety or GAD.\nOfficial figures published by the journal Brain and Behaviour say 8.2 million of us show symptoms of anxiety in one form or another \u2013 with generalised anxiety disorder (GAD) and panic disorder among the most common categories. But what I experience is now being unofficially coined \u2018high-functioning anxiety\u2019 \u2013 it\u2019s where anxiety, ambition and a need for approval intersect.\nIt\u2019s becoming recognised as a problem affecting young women like me, in particular. The 21st century, with its competitive culture and social media bragging, is the perfect melting pot for its existence. While I\u2019m not totally debilitated by it \u2013 as someone with GAD might be \u2013 it is a constant noise in my life; some days louder than others.\nHow do we try and hide GAD?\n\"When we are in a state of anxiety,\" explains neuroscientist Dean Burnett, author of The Idiot Brain, \"the hippocampus and amygdala \u2013 which are respectively responsible for memory and emotions such as fear, and which form part of the brain\u2019s \u201cthreat detection system\u201d \u2013 are overactive. So people worry constantly and, often, unnecessarily.\"\nAnd what if, like me, you\u2019re busy trying to cover it up?\n\"Some people can still override the increased activity in the hippocampus-amygdala with willpower \u2013 at least as far as outward behaviour is concerned,\" adds Burnett.\nSo, for me, when I\u2019m in a state of anxiety in a public space, I can talk and listen and appear calm, but I don\u2019t truly absorb what\u2019s being said because I\u2019m too busy battling the panic narrative and stress-induced pain spiralling in my head. Yes, it\u2019s exhausting.\nHow is GAD triggered?\nIt perhaps comes as no surprise that sufferers are typically achievement-driven; the link between perfectionism and a strain on mental health is well documented. In 2014, a paper published in the Review of General Psychology stated that perfectionism can lead to crippling anxiety, depression and even suicide.\nAccording to Dr David Veale, a consultant psychiatrist in cognitive behaviour therapy at The Priory, the roots of anxiety, however, are hard to pinpoint. \"It could be because of genes, an early life experience or trauma,\" he says.\nWomen are particularly at risk: we are twice as likely to experience anxiety disorders as men and form a chunk of the 60 million plus people in the EU with phobias or obsessive compulsive disorders*.\nNHS figures reveal that 19 per cent of women have reported symptoms of mental health problems. \"There is so much pressure for young women to be perfect all the time,\" says Burnett. \"But such stress can make you more vulnerable to anxiety.\"\nObsessively overthinking\nLet me talk you through my thought process. Say I\u2019ve lost something, or an editor has sent a piece of work back with some constructive criticism. Very quickly I develop obsessive thoughts of impending disaster (either in my life or globally), severe hypochondria and paranoia about what people think of me. In times of acute stress, I start thinking about spontaneous combustion. It feels like a wave of heat is rising within me and I am convinced I\u2019m about to burst into flames.\n\"Most people have an optimistic bias \u2013 it helps us to get more done if we assume we can achieve it,\" says Burnett. \"But people with anxiety, or the common symptoms of anxiety, tend to have this flipped, so you overhear a stranger talking about someone and you assume they are talking about you. You make links to things that stress you such as the thought of having cancer or AIDS \u2013 all worst-case scenarios.\"\nFor me it's surfaced in these ways:\n* Loss of sleep\n* Forgetful or can't concentrate\nIt all tallies with what the experts say.\n\"When we sleep, the parts of the brain controlling consciousness, mostly found in the frontal lobe, like the pre-frontal cortex, are \u201cshut down\u201d, or the activity in these at least changes to a more rhythmical type,\" explains Burnett. \"The problem with anxiety is it\u2019s a highly \u201caroused\u201d state, so you\u2019re looking for dangers, planning escapes, obsessing over concerns and so on.\nThis keeps the higher consciousness parts of the brain active, which hinders or prevents the slowing and synchronising of these brain regions, which are needed for sleep.\" This increased alertness is to give you the urgency if you, say, needed to run away from a bear (a danger I don\u2019t often have to face in London).\nCan't sleep? Won't sleep? Note this as one of the common symptoms of anxiety.\nMeanwhile, Burnett tells me it\u2019s also very common for your heart rate to increase: \"When you\u2019re anxious, you\u2019re overly aware of stressors and threats beyond what is logically necessary. This causes the threat detection and reflexive \u201chard wired\u201d areas of the brain to engage the fight-or-flight response. This releases adrenaline, which increases heart beat. The constant but irregular release of adrenaline causes your heart to start firing off at random points.\"\nBurnett also says an awareness of this particular physical symptom can trigger further stress. \"You can tell when your heart isn\u2019t behaving normally and someone prone to anxiety will no doubt find this extremely worrying, causing further stress and alarm, resulting in more adrenaline being released. So the cycle ends up being self-sustaining.\"\nThe good news is that women are often better than men at speaking up about mental health issues; although Stephen Buckley, head of information at the mental health charity Mind, highlights that many choose not to: \"If you\u2019re living a busy life with a demanding job, there may be a temptation to discount signs of anxiety as stress,\" he says.\nBut the mental effort of concealing anxiety is perhaps as damaging as the anxiety itself. \"Constant anxiety results in the release of cortisol \u2013 a precursor hormone to the fight-or-flight response,\" says Burnett. \"It interferes with memory processing, impedes focus, puts strain on the heart and affects temperament. Its damage to the nervous system and body can be long term.\"\nThe consequences of dissociating your outward appearance from what\u2019s going on in your head could be even worse still:\n\"One of the more fundamental types of learning that the brain does is associative,\" adds Burnett. A behaviour is performed, a reaction occurs and the brain links the two. So, if you are constantly behaving in a way that would normally elicit a certain reaction \u2013 being friendly towards someone making you feel happy, for example \u2013 but it no longer provokes the expected response, your brain will slowly lose the association, making it harder for you to form genuine connections and enjoy social engagements at a later point.\nSurrounded yourself with people\nDespite all this, those with high-functioning anxiety\u2013or other symptoms of anxiety\u2013tend not to isolate themselves, which can help them cope with the condition. \"Being socially isolated at home is more of a problem than staying at work,\" says Professor Roz Shafran, a psychologist at UCL and author of Overcoming Perfectionism.\n\"At work you get distraction and self-esteem reinforcement, which could, in itself, act as a form of therapy.\" Translation: being around people in the once can make you feel better.\nTry behaviour therapy\nShafran and Burnett agree that the best way to attempt true control over anxiety, rather than cultivating a superficial veneer of wellness, is to seek help in the form of behaviour therapy, which is available on the NHS. \"The majority of people can transform their lives within 12 sessions so there really is no need to suffer,\" says Shafran.\nUltimately, how manageable high functioning anxiety truly is depends on your parameters of what it means to function properly. I once told a friend that my fears weren\u2019t impinging on my life in any way, they just made me feel rubbish. Her response? \"If it\u2019s making you feel rubbish, it\u2019s impinging on your life.\"\nEssentially, don't think you have to have extreme symptoms of anxiety to get help.\nPerhaps it is time we looked beyond what the verb \u2018to function\u2019 actually means; more than being able to meet deadlines, leave the house or go to a gym class, but having a semblance of peace in your mind.\nI wonder how truly high functioning I could be, both externally and internally, if I took steps to free myself from anxiety.\nIf you suspect that you're dealing with mental health problems, book in with your GP and check out the resources on mind.org.uk.

        "title": "What is bone cancer?",
        "raw_content": "Thread: What is bone cancer?\nBone cancer is a malignant (cancerous) tumor of the bone that ruins normal bone tissue. Harmless. The truth is, benign (noncancerous) bone tumors tend to be more common than malignant ones. Both benign and malignant bone tumors may grow and compress healthy bone tissue, but benign tumors don't spread, don't ruin bone tissue, and are seldom a danger to life.\nVarious kinds of cancer may start in the bones. The most typical kinds, Ewing tumors and osteosarcoma, appear most frequently in adolescents and kids. Here we'll concentrate on different kinds of bone tumors.\nWhether you are worried about making choices about treatment, growing bone cancer, or attempting to remain well after treatment, there are certain things you need to know.\nMalignant tumors that start in bone tissue are called primary bone cancer. Cancer that metastasizes (spreads) to the bones from the rest of the body, including the breast, lung, or prostate, is called metastatic cancer, and is named after the organ or tissue where it started. Primary bone cancer is much less common.\nStandard bone marrow and blood\nVarious kinds of leukemia are formed from various kinds of cells. To comprehend the various kinds of leukemia, it is helpful to possess some fundamental understanding of the lymph and blood systems. The advice which follows is not rather simple. It might prove helpful, but you do not need to comprehend it all to learn more.\nBone marrow is the soft inner part of some bones such as backs, shoulder blades, ribs, pelvis, and the skull. Bone marrow consists of a few blood stem cells mature blood-forming cells, fat cells, and supporting tissues which help cells develop.\nIn the bone marrow, blood stem cells grow into blood cells that are new. In this method, the cells become either lymphocytes (a type of white blood cell) or other blood-forming cells. These blood-forming cells can grow red blood cells, white blood cells (other than lymphocytes), or platelets.\nRed blood cells carry oxygen from your lungs to other tissues within the body, and take carbon dioxide back to the lungs to be eliminated. Having too few red blood cells in the body (anemia) can cause you to feel exhausted, poor, and short of breath because your body tissues will not be receiving sufficient oxygen.\nPlatelets are actually cell fragments made with a form of bone marrow cell called the megakaryocyte. Platelets are essential in plugging up holes in blood vessels due to wounds or bruises. Having too few platelets (thrombocytopenia) may cause one to bleed or bruise easily.\nWhite blood cells help the body fight diseases. Having too few white blood cells (neutropenia) lowers your defense mechanisms and will allow you to be prone to get an illness.\nLymphocytes are not immature, disease-fighting cells that grow from lymphoblasts, a kind of blood stem cell in the bone marrow. Lymphocytes are the primary cells which make up an important portion of the immune system, lymphoid tissue. Lymphoid tissue can be found in the thymus gland, lymph nodes, the spleen, the tonsils and adenoids, and is scattered throughout the bone marrow as well as the respiratory and digestive systems. The 2 major kinds of lymphocytes are known as B lymphocytes (B cells) and T lymphocytes (T cells). Lymphocytes help shield the body. Some kinds of lymphocytes help control the immune system.\nGranulocytes are mature, disease-fighting cells that grow from myeloblasts, a kind of blood. Granulocytes have granules that show up as spots underneath the microscope. These granules contain other materials that could destroy germs, including bacteria and enzymes. The 3 kinds of granulocytes -- basophils, neutrophils, and eosinophils -- are recognized under the microscope by color as well as the size of the granules. Neutrophils are the most frequent form of granulocyte in the blood. They may be in destroying bacteria which have invaded the blood, crucial.\nMonocytes grow from blood-forming monoblasts and therefore are related to granulocytes. After circulating in the bloodstream for around a day, monocytes enter body tissues to become macrophages, which can ruin some germs by digesting and smothering them. Macrophages help germs are recognized by lymphocytes and begin making antibodies to fight them.\nAre there many types of primary bone cancer?\nYes. Cancer can start in almost any bone tissue. Bones comprise of osteoid (hard or streamlined), cartilaginous (tough, flexible), and fibrous (threadlike) tissue, along with components of bone marrow (soft, spongy tissue in the middle of the majority of bones).\nCommon forms of primary bone cancer contain the following:\nOsteosarcoma, which originates from osteoid tissue in the bone. This tumor occurs frequently in upper arm and the knee.\nChondrosarcoma, which starts in cartilaginous tissue. Cartilage pads the ends of lines and bones the joints. Chondrosarcoma appears frequently in the pelvis (found between the hip bones), upper leg, and shoulder. Occasionally a chondrosarcoma includes bone cells that are cancerous. If so, the tumor is classified by physicians as an osteosarcoma.\nThe Ewing Sarcoma Family of Tumors (ESFTs), which will appear in bone but might also appear in soft tissue (muscle, fat, fibrous tissue, arteries, or other supporting tissue). Scientists believe that ESFTs originate from components of archaic nerve tissue in the bone or soft tissue. ESFTs happen most commonly over pelvis and the spinal column and in arms and the legs.\nOther forms of cancer that originate in soft tissue are called soft tissue sarcomas. They're not bone cancer and will not be described in this resource.\nDo you know the potential factors behind bone cancer?\nScientists have identified several variables that raise the chance of developing these tumors although bone cancer doesn't possess a clearly defined cause. Osteosarcoma happens more often in individuals who have had high- dose external radiation therapy or treatment with anticancer drugs that are certain; kids appear to be especially susceptible. A few bone cancers are due to heredity. For instance, kids who've had hereditary retinoblastoma (an unusual cancer of the eye) are at an increased danger of developing osteosarcoma, especially if they have been treated with radiation. Also, individuals who have hereditary defects of people and bones with alloy implants, which physicians occasionally use to fix breaks, tend to be prone to come up with osteosarcoma. Ewing sarcoma isn't firmly correlated with congenital childhood diseases any heredity cancer syndromes, or previous radiation exposure.\nHow frequently does bone cancer happen?\nPrimary bone cancer is uncommon. It accounts for much less than 1 percent of cancers. About 2,300 new cases of primary bone cancer are diagnosed in the United States each year. Various kinds of bone cancer are far prone to happen in people that are some specific\nOsteosarcoma occurs between ages 10 and 19. Nevertheless, individuals over age 40 who have other illnesses, including Paget disease (a benign condition characterized by abnormal growth of new bone cells), are at increased danger of developing this cancer.\nChondrosarcoma happens mostly in elderly adults (over age 40). With advancing age the danger increases. This disease rarely occurs in teens and kids.\nESFTs happen most frequently in teens and kids under 19 years old. Boys are affected more frequently than girls. These tumors are very uncommon in African American kids.\nWhat are the indications of bone cancer?\nPain is the most frequent symptom of bone cancer, although not all bone cancers cause pain. Unusual pain or constant or swelling in or near a bone may result from cancer or by other illnesses. It is necessary to see a physician to find out the reason.\nIn the beginning, the pain isn't continuous. It could be worse at night or when the bone is used (for instance, leg pain when walking). The pain is going to be there all the time as the cancer grows. The pain increases with the individual as well as task might limp if your leg is called for.\nSwelling in the region of the pain might not occur until weeks afterwards. It may not be impossible to sense a lump or mass with respect to the location of the tumor.\nCancers in the bones of the neck may create a lump in the trunk of the throat which make it difficult to breathe or could bring about trouble consuming.\nBone cancer can weaken the bone it grows in, but all the time the bones tend not to fracture (break). People who have a break next to or by way of a bone cancer generally describe unexpected intense pain in a limb that had been raw for some months.\nCancer in the bones of the spinal column can press on nerves, resulting in numbness and tingling as well as weakness.\nCancer may cause tiredness and weight loss. It can cause other symptoms, also, in the event the cancer spreads to internal organs. For instance, in the event the cancer spreads to the lung, you could have trouble breathing.\nThese symptoms are commonly due to conditions besides cancer, including arthritis or injuries. However, if these issues go on for quite a while with no reason that is known, you need to see your physician.\nHow is bone cancer diagnosed?\nThe physician asks about the individual's individual and family medical history, to help diagnose bone cancer. The physician also performs a physical examination and can order other diagnostic tests and lab. These evaluations can contain the following\nX rays, which may reveal the place, size, and shape of a bone tumor. If x-rays indicate that the unusual region could be cancer, the physician will probably advocate imaging evaluations that are specific. If x-rays indicate that the abnormal area is not malignant, a doctor might want to do additional evaluations, particularly when the individual is experiencing pain that is constant or unusual.\nA bone scan, which will be a test in a little bit of radioactive material is injected into a blood vessel and travels throughout the bloodstream, which it subsequently accumulates in the bones and is detected with a scanner.\nA computed tomography (CT or CAT) scan, which will be some detailed pictures of areas within the body, shot from different angles, which are made with a computer linked to an x-ray machine.\nA magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) process, which runs on the strong magnet linked to a pc to produce detailed images of areas in the body without using x rays.\nA positron emission tomography (PET) scan, by which a little bit of radioactive glucose (sugar) is injected right into a vein, and also a scanner can be used to create detailed, computerized pictures of areas in the body where the glucose can be used. The images may be used to find cancer cells in the entire body, because cancer cells often use more glucose than normal cells.\nAn angiogram, which is an x ray of blood vessels.\nHow can bone cancer be treated?\nTreatment choices are determined by the kind, size, place, and phase of the cancer, in addition to his or her age and general well-being. Treatment alternatives for bone cancer include chemotherapy, surgery, radiation therapy, and cryosurgery.\nOperation is the common treatment for bone cancer. The surgeon removes the whole tumor with negative margins (no cancer cells are observed in the edge or border of the tissue removed during operation). The surgeon could also use specific surgical methods to minimize the number of healthy tissue removed with all the tumor.\nDramatic advancements in surgical techniques and preoperative tumor treatment have made it easy for many patients with bone cancer in an arm or leg to avoid revolutionary surgical procedures (removal of the whole limb). Nevertheless, most patients who experience limb-sparing operation want reconstructive surgery to increase limb function.\nChemotherapy is using anticancer drugs to kill cancer cells. Patients that have bone cancer generally get a variety of anticancer drugs. Nevertheless, chemotherapy isn't presently used to deal with chondrosarcoma.\nRadiation therapy, also called radiotherapy, involves using high energy x-rays to kill cancer cells. This treatment can be utilized together with operation. It's used to deal with ESFTs, along with chondrosarcoma, which can't be treated with chemotherapy. It can also be useful for patients who refuse surgery.\nCryosurgery is using liquid nitrogen. This technique will often be utilized instead of traditional operation to destroy the tumor.\nPeripheral blood or bone marrow stem cell transplant for acute myeloid leukemia\nThe injury to the bone marrow may be deadly, although quite high doses of chemo drugs might work to kill cancer cells. A stem cell transplant (SCT) offers a means for physicians to make use of high doses of chemo. The drugs ruin the individual\u2019s bone marrow, but it is restored by the transplanted stem cells.\nStem cells for a transplant come from the bone marrow or from the blood. Bone marrow transplants were more common before, but now peripheral blood stem cell transplant (PBSCT) is a lot more common.\nThere are 2 primary kinds of stem cell transplants: autologous and allogeneic. The difference is the source of the blood-forming stem cells.\nThere's an excellent motive to make use of stem cells. These cells appear to aid fight with any remaining leukemia cells through an immune reaction. That is known as a graft-versus-leukemia response and is described below. In addition, some leukemia cells may be contained by the individual\u2019s own stem cells, when the leukemia is in remission, even though they can be gathered.\nThe procedure works like this: stem cells are collected in the bloodstream in a procedure called apheresis. The cells are frozen and kept. Patients are given high doses of chemo to kill the cancer cells. In addition they may get whole body radiation. After treatment, the stored stem cells get to the individual as a blood transfusion. The stem cells begin to develop and make new blood cells and settle to the individual\u2019s bone marrow during the following several days.\nThose who get a donor's stem cells are given drugs to avoid some other medications together with rejection as needed to prevent diseases. Generally, stem cells begin making white blood cells that are new within several weeks as soon as they have been given. They start making eventually, and platelets, red blood cells.\nPatients must be kept away from germs as much as you can until their white blood cell count is at an amount that is secure. They remain in the hospital before a specific amount is reached by the white cell count, generally around 1,000. As soon as they go home, they'll be viewed for many weeks nearly every day in the outpatient clinic.\nMost patients that are elderly cannot have a routine transplant that uses high doses of chemo. Some may have the ability to have what's known as a mini-transplant (also called a non-myeloablative transplant or reduced-intensity transplant), where they get lower doses of chemo and radiation that don't ruin the all cells inside their bone marrow. They are given stem cells to the donor. These cells enter the body and form a fresh immune system, which finds the leukemia cells as foreign and attacks them (a graft-versus-leukemia effect). That is not the typical kind of transplant plus some physicians think of the strategy as experimental in this disorder.\nStem cell transplantation (SCT) is a complicated treatment. In the event the physicians believe this treatment might help the person suffering from leukemia, it is necessary that it be done in a hospital where the staff has expertise.\nSCT a long hospital stay can be more expensive than $100,000 and might Because insurance providers may see as experimental specific sorts of SCT, they may well not pay because of it. You need to learn everything you may need to pay before choosing a transplant and what your insurance will cover.\nCommon unwanted effects are substantially exactly the same as those caused by another form of chemo and may be serious. Included in these are vomiting and nausea, mouth sores, and acute low blood counts. Among the very frequent and serious short term effects is the greater danger of; disease due to low blood cell counts that are white. Antibiotics in many cases are given to try and keep this from happening. Other negative effects, like low red blood cell and platelet counts, frequently mean transfusions will be needed; by the patient.\nGraft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is the key issue of a donor stem cell (allogeneic) transplant. It occurs when that of the donor takes over the immune system of the individual. The donor immune system begins to attack the individual\u2019s other tissues and organs. In serious instances, GVHD can be life threatening.\nSymptoms may include skin rashes that are poor with itching and acute diarrhea. Lungs and the liver are often damaged. The individual also have aching muscles and might also be really exhausted. GVHD may be deadly if awful enough. Drugs that weaken the immune system could possibly be given to try and command it. The plus side of graft-versus-host disease is that any remaining leukemia cells are normally killed by the donor bone marrow. That is known as the graft-versus-leukemia effect.\nDonor matching for allogeneic transplant\nThe immune system usually keeps us healthy by destroying anything for example viruses or bacteria. Cells are recognized by a working immune system from others as foreign, also. This becomes crucial in a allogeneic stem cell transplant.\nIn case the tissue type match between donor and receiver isn't close, the newest stem cells may be seen by the individual\u2019s defense mechanisms and destroy them. That is known as graft rejection, also it may cause graft failure. When the donor and receiver are matched, that is uncommon.\nA widespread issue is the fact that when the donor stem cells make their particular immune cells, the cells that are brand new turn against their new house and may find the individual\u2019s cells as foreign. This kind of assault is known as graft-versus-host disease. The grafted stem cells attack the body of the one who got the transplant. This is an alternative reason it is essential to seek out the closest match possible.\nMany variables play a role in the way the immune system understands the difference between self and non-self, but the most essential for transplants is the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) system. Human leukocyte antigens are proteins found on the surface of the majority of cells. They make up a person's tissue type, which differs from an individual\u2019s blood type.\nEach individual has several pairs of HLA antigens. We inherit one of all the pairs from every one of our parents (and pass one of each pair on to every one of our kids). When finding a donor to get a man obtaining a stem cell transplant doctors attempt to match these antigens.\nHow nicely recipient's as well as the donor's HLA tissue types match plays with a big part in if the transplant will work. A match is better when all 6 of the known important HLA antigens are the same 6 out of 6 match. Individuals with one of these matches have a lesser potential for graft-versus-host disease, graft rejection, receiving serious diseases, and having a poor immune apparatus. For bone marrow and peripheral blood stem cell transplants, occasionally a donor using one mismatched antigen is used. For cord blood transplants a perfect HLA match does not appear to be critical for success, and a sample with a couple of proteins that are mismatched may be OK.\nDoctors keep learning more about better methods to match donors. Fewer evaluations might be required, for sibs since their cells change less than an unrelated donor now. But more in relation to the fundamental 6 HLA antigens in many cases are analyzed on unrelated donors to decrease the hazards of mismatched types. Occasionally physicians may wish to look at 5 pairs of antigens, for instance, to get a 10 out of 10 match. Transplant facilities that are specific now need high resolution fitting, which seems more deeply into tissue types. Clinical trials are being done by other facilities with associated half- matched donors and chemotherapy programs that are differing. That is an active part of research because it is generally difficult to locate a HLA match that is great.\nYou'll find a large number of distinct combinations of HLA tissue types that are potential. This can allow it to be difficult to chance upon a precise match. HLA antigens are inherited from both parents. When possible, the hunt to get a donor typically begins using the patient's brothers and sisters (siblings), who possess the exact same parents as the individual. The opportunity that any one sib would have been an ideal match (that's, that you both received the identical set of HLA antigens from every one of your parents) is 1 out of 4.\nIf your sibling isn't an excellent fit, the search could then go forward to relatives that are not as likely to be an excellent match for parents, half sibs, and extended family, including aunts, uncles, or cousins. (Partners are no more prone to be great fits than other individuals who will not be linked.) If no relatives are observed to be a close match, the search will be widened by the transplant team to the public.\nAs improbable as it looks, it is not impossible to locate a great fit having a stranger. To help with this particular procedure, transplant registries will be used by the team. Registries function as matchmakers between volunteer donors and patients. They are able to hunt for and access thousands of cord blood units and millions of potential donors. The biggest registry in America is Be the Match (previously known as the National Marrow Donor Program) which has recently merged with a different bureau, the Caitlin Raymond International Registry. They have matched thousands of donors and receivers, and have access to millions of international records.\nThe odds of finding an unrelated donor match as more volunteers sign up, enhance each year. Now, about half of white people who want a stem cell transplant may uncover an ideal match among donors that are unrelated. This drops out of 10 folks in other ethnic groups, mainly because their HLA types tend to be more varied plus they appear to be more unlikely to be a part of donor registries. Depending on an individual\u2019s tissue typing, several other international registries also are accessible. Occasionally the most effective matches are discovered in people who have a similar racial or ethnic heritage. Though cord blood could be a little quicker locating an unrelated donor can take months. One match can demand going through numerous records.\nSince transplant centers are more frequently using high resolution tests, fitting has become more sophisticated. At that level are considerably more difficult to locate, perfect 10 out of 10 matches. But transplant teams will also be becoming better at figuring out what sorts of mismatches they are able to get away with in which scenarios that's, and mismatched sites are more unlikely to change transplant success and survival.\nRemember there are phases to the procedure there could be several matches that seem promising however do not work out as expected. Registry and the team will keep trying to find perfect match for you personally. In case your team locates an adult donor by means of a transplant registry, the registry will contact the donor to set up contribution and the last testing. The registry is going to have the cord blood sent to your own transplant center in case your team finds fitting cord blood.\nIs follow-up treatment required? What exactly does it include?\nYes. Bone cancer occasionally metastasizes, especially to the lungs, or can recur (come back), either in exactly the same place or in other bones within the body. Individuals who experienced bone cancer should report any unusual symptoms immediately and should see their physician frequently. Follow-up changes for different kinds and phases of bone cancer. Typically, patients are assessed often by their physician and have routine blood tests and x-rays. Individuals who experienced bone cancer, especially teenagers and kids, have a heightened chance of developing another form of cancer, including leukemia, after in life. Routine follow-up attention helps to ensure that issues are treated when you can and that changes in health are discussed.\nAre clinical trials (research studies) available if you have bone cancer?\nYes. Involvement in clinical trials is an essential treatment alternative for a lot of people who have bone cancer. To develop new treatments and better methods to utilize current treatments, organizations are sponsoring clinical trials in several hospitals and cancer centers across the United States. Clinical trials are an essential part of the evolution of new types of treatment. Before any new treatment may be recommended for general use, doctors conduct clinical trials to learn if the treatment is safe for patients and effective against the disorder.\nCan bone metastases be prevented?\nDoctors do not understand how to prevent all bone metastases. But it might be possible to prevent many instances of bone metastasis before they experienced an opportunity to propagate if cancers are found and treated efficiently. That is particularly true for cancers that often spread to the bones, including prostate and breast cancers.\nSome cancers, including breast cancer, can often be discovered with; screening evaluations, before they've an opportunity to propagate. But a lot of cancers cannot faithfully be found by the evaluations we've now, before they can be found, plus some cancers may have previously spread.\nThere are methods to lower your own risk of having cancer in the very first place, such as not smoking, remaining in a healthier weight, getting regular physical activity, and eating a healthier diet (including restricting alcohol).\nResearchers are examining methods to stop metastasis in those who have cancer, but only at that time the most effective means to do that is to treat the cancer before it spreads.\nOperation is the principal (main) treatment for many bone cancers. Operation are often required to have a biopsy of the cancer. The biopsy as well as the surgical treatment are different procedures, but it is extremely significant that both are planned by the physician jointly. Ideally, exactly the same surgeon should do the primary operation as well as the biopsy. When the surgeon does the surgery to take away the cancer, a biopsy taken in the incorrect spot can cause difficulties. Occasionally a biopsy that is poor placed may also allow it to be impossible to get rid of the cancer without cutting the limb off.\nThe primary aim of surgery would be to remove the cancer all. They are able to grow and multiply to make a fresh tumor if even several cancer cells are left behind. To strive to make sure that this does not occur, surgeons remove the tumor plus some of the ordinary-appearing tissue that surrounds it. This is referred to as broad-excision. Removing some ordinary-appearing tissue helps ensure that all of the cancer is removed. After operation, a pathologist can look in the tissue that has been removed beneath the microscope to find out whether the borders (outer edges) have cancer cells. The borders are called positive, if cancer cells were seen in the borders of the tissue. Positive borders can mean that some cancer was left behind. When no cancer is observed in the borders of the tissue, the borders are considered clear, tidy, or negative. A broad-excision with margins that are clean minimizes the danger the cancer will grow back where it began.\nOccasionally the whole limb must be eliminated in order to do a great broad-excision (and remove all the cancer). This procedure is called an amputation. But all the time the surgeon can take away the cancer. That is called limb-salvage or limb-sparing operation. It is necessary to understand there are benefits and disadvantages with either kind of operation in going over treatment choices. As an example, although for many individuals limb-salvage appears less unacceptable than amputation, it's less simple and can have significantly more complications. Both procedures possess exactly the same overall survival rates when done by skilled surgeons. Studies have revealed little difference in how individuals respond to the final result of the processes that were different. Probably the largest concern was found in adolescents who worry regarding the societal effects of the surgery. Psychological problems may be extremely significant and encouragement and support are needed for the majority of patients.\nWhichever kind of operation is performed, rehabilitation will likely be needed later. This may be the most difficult section of treatment. When possible, the individual should meet before operation with a specialist in rehabilitation to realize what is going to be entailed.\nAmputation: Amputation is operation to eliminate part or all of a limb (an arm or leg). When used to take care of cancer, amputation removes some healthy tissue above it, the limb part together with the tumor, and everything below it. Before, amputation was the primary strategy to deal with bone cancers discovered in legs or the arms. Currently, this procedure is selected when there is a reason to not do limb-salvage surgery. By way of example, an amputation might be needed if removing all the cancer needs removing arteries vital nerves, or muscles that will make the limb without great function.\nMRI scans and evaluation of the tissue by the pathologist during the period of operation will help the surgeon determine just how much of leg or the arm must be eliminated. Operation is planned so that the skin as well as muscles is going to form a cuff across the amputated bone. This cuff fits to the end of an artificial limb (or prosthesis). After operation, an individual must find out the best way to make use of the prosthesis. With physical therapy that is appropriate they're frequently walking after leg amputation.\nLimb-salvage operation: The purpose of limb-salvage operation will be to remove all the cancer but still make a functioning leg (or arm). Over 90% of patients with bone cancer in a limb really are able to have their limb saved. This kind of operation is extremely complicated and needs surgeons with expertise and specific abilities. While saving the nearby tendons, nerves, and vessels, the challenge for the surgeon would be to eliminate the whole tumor. That is necessarily impossible. They are going to have to be eliminated together with the tumor if your cancer has exploded into these constructions. This will often lead to a limb which is not painless or cannot be used. If so, amputation could be the most effective choice.\nIn this kind of operation, a broad-excision is carried out to eliminate the tumor. An endoprosthesis or a bone graft can be used to replace the bone that's lost. Endoprostheses are made from metal as well as other substances and may be quite complex. Some can be made more without any additional operation as the little one grows since they can be utilized in growing kids.\nAdditional operation may be needed in the event the bone graft or endoprosthesis becomes broken, loose, or contaminated. Limb-salvage surgery patients and some may need more operation and an amputation, respectively.\nRehabilitation is a lot more extreme after limb-salvage operation than it is after amputation. It will take a typical time of a year for patients -salvage of a leg. The salvaged arm or leg can become worthless, in the event the patient will not take part in the rehabilitation program.\nReconstructive surgery: In the event the leg has to be amputated mid-thigh, foot and the lower leg may be rotated and attached to the thigh bone. The ankle joint that is old becomes the newest knee joint. This operation is named rotationplasty. A prosthesis can be used to create the brand new leg the same span as the other (healthy) leg.\nThe tumor could be removed and then the lower arm attached in case the bone tumor can be found in the top arm. This leaves the patient with the arm that works but is not considerably longer.\nBone cancer in the pelvis is treated using a broad-excision when potential. Bone grafts may be used to reconstruct the pelvic bones if necessary.\nTo get a tumor in the lower jaw bone, the whole lower half the jaw could be removed and replaced with bones from the rest of the body.\nFor tumors in places such as the skull or the back, it might impossible to do a broad-excision. Cancers in these bones may need a variety of treatments including cryosurgery, curettage, and radiation.\nCurettage: In this process, the physician scoops the tumor from your bone out without removing a segment of the bone. This makes a hole in the bone. Sometimes, after all the tumor was removed, the surgeon will treat the bone tissue that is nearby to kill any remaining tumor cells. This is finished with cryosurgery or by using bone cement.\nCryosurgery: Because of this treatment, liquid nitrogen is poured to the hole that's made in the bone following the tumor was removed. This substance that is exceptionally chilly kills tumor cells. This treatment is also called. After cryosurgery, bone grafts or by bone cement can fill the hole in the bone.\nBone cement: The bone cement PMMA (polymethylmethyacrylate) starts out as a liquid and hardens over time. It could be put in a hole in the bone in liquid form. As PMMA hardens, it gives plenty of heat off. Heat helps kill any remaining tumor cells. This enables PMMA to be utilized without cryosurgery for a number of kinds of bone tumors.\nIn order to treat a bone cancer, any present metastases and it have to be taken away with surgery. The lungs would be the most frequent site of distant spread for bone cancer. Operation to get rid of bone cancer metastases has to be planned. Prior to the surgery, the surgeon will look at how many tumors, their place (one lung or both lungs), their size, as well as the individual\u2019s general state.\nThe chest CT scan might not demonstrate all of the tumors that actually exist. Than may be observed in the chest CT scan, the surgeon is going to have treatment strategy in case more tumors are observed through the procedure.\nRemoving each of the lung metastases might be the sole opportunity to get a remedy. Yet, not all lung metastases may be taken off. Some tumors are excessively huge or are too close to significant structures in the chest (for example large blood vessels) to be removed safely. Individuals whose general state isn't great (due to poor nutritional status or issues with all the heart, liver, or kidneys) might not have the capacity to resist the strain of anesthesia and operation to eliminate metastases.\nThe risk factors of bone cancer\nA risk factor is whatever changes your possibility of having a disease like cancer. Different cancers have different risk factors. By way of example, exposing skin to strong sunlight is a risk factor for skin cancer. Smoking is a risk factor for cancers of the lung, mouth, larynx, bladder, kidney, and other organs. But having a risk factor, or even several, doesn't imply you will get the disorder. Many people who have bone cancers would not have some risk factors that are apparent.\nA tiny amount of bone cancers (particularly osteosarcomas) seem to be hereditary and therefore are due to defects (mutations) in particular genes.\nKids with particular rare familial syndromes have a higher danger of developing osteosarcoma.\nEventually, there are families with several members that have grown osteosarcoma without familial changes in the genes that are known. The gene defects which could cause cancers have not been found yet.\nMultiple exostoses (occasionally called multiple osteochondromas) syndrome is an inherited condition that causes many lumps on someone\u2019s bones. These lumps are created largely of cartilage. They could be deform and debilitating or fracture bones. A mutation in any one of the 3 genes causes this illness EXT1, EXT2, or EXT3. Patients with this specific condition have a heightened danger of chondrosarcoma.\nAn enchondroma is a benign cartilage tumor that develops to the bone. Those who get several tumors have a condition. They've a higher danger of growing chondrosarcomas.\nChordomas appear to run in certain families. Genetic chordoma was associated with changes on chromosome 7, although the genes responsible haven't yet been discovered.\nPatients together with the familial syndrome tuberous sclerosis, which is often due to defects (mutations) in both of the genes TSC1 and TSC2, appear to really have a high risk of chordomas during youth.\nPaget disease is a benign (non-cancerous) but precancerous condition which affects one or more bones. It is mainly a disorder of individuals older than 50 and ends in formation of abnormal bone tissue. Affected bones are fragile, thick, and heavy. They may be poorer than normal bones and prone to fracture (break). All the time Paget disease isn't life-threatening. Bone cancer (generally osteosarcoma) grows in about 1% of those with Paget disease, typically when many bones are changed.\nBones which were exposed to ionizing radiation could even have an increased danger of developing bone cancer. A typical x ray of a bone is safe, but exposure to substantial doses of radiation does present a threat. For instance, radiation therapy to treat cancer may lead to a cancer that is new to grow in among the bones in the procedure region. Being treated when you're younger and/or being treated with higher doses of radiation (typically over 60 Gy) raises the chance of developing bone cancer.\nExposure to radioactive materials like strontium and radium also can cause bone cancer because these minerals develop in bones.\nNon-ionizing radiation, like microwaves, electromagnetic fields from power lines, cellular phones, and household appliances, will not raise bone cancer hazard.\nOsteosarcoma was reported in several patients that have undergone bone marrow (stem cell) transplantation.\nFolks have wondered whether cancer can be caused by harm to your bone, but this hasn't been established. A lot of people with bone cancer recall having damage that element of the bone. Most physicians consider that the cancer was not caused by this, but instead the cancer caused them to recall the event or that their attention was drawn by the harm to that particular bone and caused a difficulty that had been present for a while to be noticed by them.\nWhat is new in treatment and bone cancer research?\nAnalysis on bone cancer is currently being done at other associations, university hospitals, as well as many medical centers throughout the country. There are lots of on-going clinical trials.\nSome clinical trials are looking into methods to join operation radiation therapy, and chemotherapy (chemo), and drugs known as targeted therapy. One study discovered the blend of the chemo drug cyclophosphamide (Cytoxan) as well as the targeted drug sirolimus can help prevent chondrosarcomas from growing to get a period.\nNew chemo drugs are being tested by some.\nTargeted therapy drugs work differently from conventional chemo. These drugs target proteins and specific genes.\nOne case of targeted therapy is the drug imatinib (Gleevec), which targets specific proteins made by the cancer cells in chordomas. Adding another drug to imatinib, including the targeted therapy drug sirolimus (Rapamune) or the chemo drug cisplatin helps prevent the development of chordomas when imatinib quits working. Panobinostat, another drug, is being examined to treat chordoma.\nLapatinib is another targeted drug which may be helpful in treating chordoma. In a single study of patients with tumors that had protein too many duplicates of the EGFR gene or too much EGFR, it helped prevent them from growing to get a period and shrink tumors.\nSome chordomas reveal powerful reflection of parts of an insulin-like growth factor. It's led to examining antibodies from the insulin-like growth factor receptor 1 (IGF1R) in chordoma patients.\nStudies of other targeted drugs are going on right now, including nilotinib (Tasigna) and dasatinib (Sprycel) in chordoma, and pazopanib (Votrient) everolimus (Afinitor), and vismodegib (GDC-0449) in chondrosarcoma.\nThe most frequent form of radiation used to treat cancer uses columns of x rays. Proton beam radiation uses particles made up of protons (protons are little positively charged particles which are part of atoms). Another less common type of particle radiation which can be utilized to deal with chordomas and chondrosarcomas is carbon ion radiation. This is useful in treating tumors of the skull base, but is just obtainable in several centers globally.\nIn learning regarding what causes bone tumors as well as clinical trials, researchers are making progress. As an example, changes into a particular section of chromosome 6 have now been discovered in chordomas. Alters the COL2A1 gene, which codes to get an important type of collagen found in cartilage, happen to be discovered in several chondrosarcomas. Hopefully additional information in regards to the DNA changes that cause bone cancers will finally result in treatments.\nQuick Navigation Bone Cancer Top\nBone Decalcifications - Symptoms and Treatment\nBone Marrow Transplantation - All About Bone Marrow Transplants\nAlpharadin and prostate cancer - bone metastasis and radium\nDonation of bone marrow in questions\nBone cancer - All about bone cancer",

        "title": "Essential Oils for Ear Infection: Know the Facts",
        "raw_content": "Medically reviewed by Debra Rose Wilson, PhD, MSN, RN, IBCLC, AHN-BC, CHT on August 18, 2016 \u2014 Written by Chaunie Brusie, RN, BSN\nIf you've ever had an ear infection as an adult, you know just how painful they can be. Ear infections can also be a big concern for parents. Not only can they cause your child to be very uncomfortable, but they can also be hard to treat. Many people are turning to essential oils as a way to help clear up an ear infection naturally. But do essential oils for ear infections work? Can they be dangerous? Here's what you need to know about using essential oils for ear infections.\nHow can essential oils be used to treat ear infections?\nEssential oils are derived from plants. Think of them as super concentrated forms of the plant they\u2019re taken from. Plants or plant parts are steamed, allowing the oil to be separate from the water present in the plant. The chemical makeup of the essential oil depends on the type of plant it\u2019s from and the way the oil is harvested.\nSome essential oils have antimicrobial or antibacterial properties, which are useful for fighting off viral and bacterial infections.\nViruses work by taking over the cells in your body. The virus then uses your own cells to make more virus cells. Certain essential oils can help stop that process by preventing the virus from replicating.\nOther types of essential oils work like an antibiotic, helping to kill off harmful strands of bacteria. Different oils work to kill the bacteria in different ways. For example, some can interfere with the cellular processes that give the bacteria energy. This causes the bacteria to starve to death and leave your system.\nTea tree and basil oils both have medicinal properties that may be useful in treating ear infections.\nA 2006 review of tea tree oil\u2019s properties explains that tea tree oil has a lot of terpinen-4-ol. This chemical compound kills off bacteria that it comes into contact with. Because of this, tea tree oil may be even more effective than some antibacterial cleaning agents.\nResearchers in a 2005 animal study assessed the effects of oil of basil when placed in the ear canal of rats with acute ear infection. This treatment healed 56 to 81 percent of rates infected with Haemophilus influenzae and 6 to 75 percent of rats infected with pneumococci.\nAlthough the results are promising, more research is necessary to determine the efficacy and safety of using essential oils in humans.\nShop for tea tree oil.\nShop for basil oil.\nHow to use essential oils to treat an ear infection\nYou should always dilute your essential oil with a carrier oil before use. This will lessen the potent nature of the oil and prevent burning or irritation on your skin. Common carrier oils include jojoba, coconut, and extra virgin olive oils. You should use 1 teaspoon of carrier oil for every 1 drop of essential oil.\nBefore using essential oil in the ear canal, you should do a small skin patch test to assess how your skin will react to the substance. Dilute your essential oil, and spread the mixture on a quarter-sized area of skin. Your inner arm is generally a good place to try this. If you don\u2019t experience any irritation or inflammation over the next 24 hours, it should be safe to use the essential oil.\nYou can use an essential oil to treat an ear infection in a few different ways.\nIn one method, soak a cotton ball in the diluted essential oil, and then place the cotton ball lightly in your ear. This will allow the oils to seep slowly into the ear canal. Be careful not to force the cotton ball into your ear. This can cause the fibers to get trapped and may worsen the infection.\nIn another method, dilute 1-2 drops of essential oil in 2-4 drops of a carrier oil, such as warmed olive oil. Make sure the mixture isn\u2019t too hot to the touch. Use a clean dropper to release the oil directly into your ear canal. Keep your head tilted diagonally with the uninfected ear approaching your shoulder and infected ear facing the sky. After a minute, resume your normal stance and allow the oil to drip out naturally. Wipe the oil away with a clean cloth.\nYou can also rub the diluted oil around your ear. This may help reduce inflammation and pain. If your ear infection is affecting the middle ear, this approach likely won\u2019t bring relief.\nApplying undiluted essential oil to the skin can cause irritation. Make sure you test your diluted essential oil on a small area of skin before applying the mixture in or around your ear.\nYou shouldn\u2019t use this remedy if your eardrum has ruptured. If this has occurred, any pain in your ear will generally subside. If you\u2019re still feeling pain in your ear, your eardrum is likely still intact. If you\u2019re unsure, you should consult your doctor.\nIf you use more than 1-2 drops of essential oil at a time, you may cause your ear to become clogged. It\u2019s best to do one treatment, wait a few hours to assess the state of your ear, and repeat it if necessary.\nChildren, women who are breast-feeding, and women who are pregnant should exercise caution when using essential oils.\nOther treatments for ear infection\nEar infections typically resolve on their own within one to two weeks without treatment. The symptoms of ear infections, such as pain and inflammation, typically clear within three days.\nDuring this time, you can use a warm compress or an over-the-counter pain medication to help alleviate symptoms. If you\u2019re still experiencing symptoms after this three-day window has passed, you should consult your doctor.\nIn certain cases, your doctor may prescribe an antibiotic to help clear up the infection. If you have recurrent ear infections, talk with your doctor. They can help you determine the cause and work with you to resolve the issue.\nCheck out: How to use ear drops \u00bb\nIf you plan to treat your ear infection with essential oils, you should consult your doctor beforehand. They can help guide you through the process and provide you with information that may help prevent a reaction or clogged eardrum. They can also help you determine if your eardrum is ruptured.\nEssential oils aren\u2019t regulated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, so it\u2019s important to do your research. You should only purchase products from a trusted manufacturer.\nShop for essential oils.\nOnce you have your essential oil, be sure to dilute the product with a carrier oil and do a patch test before use. If you experience adverse side effects at any time, you should discontinue use.\nKeep reading: Home remedies for your baby\u2019s ear infection \u00bb\nEverything You Should Know About Ear Infections in Adults\nEar infections are less common in adults than in children, but they may be more serious or more difficult to treat in adulthood.

        "raw_content": "Bacteria are not the only thing you should worry about when you go to the toilet. On how to wipe or how to wash your hands, these common mistakes can also endanger your health.\nYou go to the bathroom several times a day, so you might think you know very well what you do there. But this need not be the case, because there are many things you do wrong.\nHere are the five most common mistakes and ways in which they can be corrected.\nYou Sit on The Toilet Too Long\nIf you spend two minutes longer because of reading or checking Facebook (come on, we all do), it is not a big deal. But if you take so much that you cramp up your feet, you run the risk of hemorrhoids \u2013 painful, swollen veins in the anus, which can bleed. \u201cIf you have a constipation, you better stand up, walk and go back later,\u201d says gastroenterologist Anish Sheth, adding: \u201cThe walk can stimulate the intestine to get things moving down there, and it can also help you relax.\u201d\nYou Wipe Too Much\nSpeaking of wiping, less is more. And not just because you will spend less on toilet paper. \u201cExcessive wiping can irritate the perianal skin and cause small abrasions which may result in inflammation and itching,\u201d says Sheth. If you wipe one or two times, it will be quite enough. If you are still not all clean, it may be that you have a constipation. In this case, increase the intake of water and fiber to prevent hemorrhoids. If you still need more paper, consider switching to children\u2019s wet wipes or wet toilet paper.\nUsing Hand Dryers\nThey could also be called bacteria dispensers! The latest research from the UK showed that new, powerful hand dryers spread 27 times more microbes than paper towels and almost five times more bacteria than a warm, old hand dryers. Scientists discovered bacteria in the air around the hand dryer 15 minutes after use. It is a much better option to opt for paper towels and as soon as you leave the public toilets.\nYou Wipe The Wrong Way\nThis is something you do since you got out of diapers, but you may not have perfected the knowledge yet. \u201cAlways wipe from front to back. Because wiping in the opposite direction can bring bacteria from the rectum to the urinary tract and increase the chances of urinary infection, \u201csays gynecologist Alyssa Dweck. Because the urethra in women is relatively short, bacteria can easily travel to the bladder and in no time you will be tormented with painful inflammation.\nYou\u2019re Too Clean Down There\nJust because there are products that would make your female parts smell like flowers, it does not mean that you have to use. The vagina should not be overly cleaned and \u2018scrubbed\u2019 with soaps, agents, sprays and wipes, because all they can do is disrupt the pH balance and cause itching, irritation and rash. Simply wash with mild soap while bathing or showering, and the only additional tool you can use is a hair dryer if you want to dry out the excessive moisture.\nNext story The Famous Tibetan Exercise For The Treatment of Thyroid\nPrevious story Green Tea Melts Fat and Protects From Cancer, But Also Has a Dangerous Side You Need to Know!\nIf You Are Between 18 \u2013 44 Years Old, Please Read This.

This is an open access article distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited.\nLateral proboscis is a rare congenital anomaly. Lateral proboscis is a rare craniofacial malformation characterized by a rudimentary tubular, nose-like structure occurring in association with a wide spectrum of other anomalies. We presented a seven-month-old girl\u2019s lateral proboscis, cleft lip, and palate. Proboscis was excised by an elliptical incision, and the cleft was repaired at the same surgery.\nProboscis lateralis is a very rare congenital anomaly characterized by a rudimentary tubular, nose-like structure arising from the medial portion of the orbital roof [1] with an incidence of 0.1\u2009:\u200910,000 [2]. It is frequently associated with other abnormalities: heminasal aplasia/hypoplasia, mental retardation, callosal agenesis, encephalocele, microphthalmia, holoprosencephaly, and clefts [3\u20136], or may occur in isolation [4, 5]. It may be unilateral or bilateral [3, 5, 6] with a 2\u2009:\u20091 male-female preponderance [5]. According to Guerrero et al [1], it was first reported in 1861 by Forster in his monograph congenital malformations of the human body, while Boo-Chai [5] suggested a classification of this entity in 1985, and it was subsequently modified by Sakamoto et al. [7] in 2012.\nDiagnosis is usually clinical and radiological [8\u201310]; however, the use of ultrasound during antenatal was reported by Kolluru and Coumary [6] and Ero\u011flu and Uysal [10]. Surgery is the mode of treatment.\nTo the best of our knowledge, no case of lateral proboscis has been reported in our environment. Furthermore, the extensive search of the English literature yielded case reports and series. We therefore report this rare anomaly occurring in association with clefts of the lip and palate.\nA baby girl aged seven months presented to our clinic, Etomie Oral and Maxillofacial Clinic, Kaduna, Kaduna State, Nigeria, with a thick tubular structure in the medial canthus of the left eye and cleft of the left upper lip, left alveolus, and primary and secondary palates from birth. The antenatal history revealed nine months of uneventful gestation with uncomplicated spontaneous vaginal delivery. There was no prenatal history of exposure to alcohol, ionizing radiation, or drugs and consanguinity. The mother denied any family history of congenital anomalies of any type.\nClinical examination revealed an otherwise normal baby weighing 3\u2009kg with a tubular fleshy structure measuring about 3\u2009cm in the medial canthus of the left eye and cleft of the left upper lip, alveolus, and primary and secondary palates (Figure 1).\nFigure 1: (a) Full face profile and (b) worm eye view showing lateral proboscis with complete clefts of the lip and the palate.\nThe globes and the nose were all normal. Other systemic examinations were also normal. Laboratory investigations were all within normal limits.\nBased on this clinical presentation, a diagnosis of lateral proboscis with cleft of the left upper lip, alveolus, and palate was made, and the patient was subsequently prepared for surgery.\nAfter routine cleaning and draping, the upper lip cleft was repaired using the straight-line technique, while the proboscis was excised using an elliptical incision.\nThe resultant wound was closed in layers using 4/0 Vicryl sutures (Figure 2).\nFigure 2: Surgical site (a) before and (b) after suturing.\nGross examination of the specimen showed an oblong skin-covered tubular mass measuring about 3\u2009cm, while histological examination showed the stratified squamous epithelium, overlying collagenized dermis containing adnexal structures, and admixture of fat lobules and collagen bundles (Figure 3).\nFigure 3: Photomicrograph showing the stratified squamous epithelium, overlying collagenized dermis containing adnexal structures, and admixture of fat lobules and collagen bundles (H&E\u2009\u00d7\u200910).\nThe patient was managed with I.M. lincomycin 150 mg 8 hourly for 5 days, with I.M. pentazocine 7.5 mg statum, and thereafter with paracetamol 5 ml for 3 days. Sutures were removed 7 days postoperatively, and the patient was subsequently discharged the same day.\nProboscis lateralis is a very rare congenital anomaly characterized by a rudimentary tubular, nose-like structure arising from the medial portion of the orbital roof [1]. It is usually in the medial canthus of the eye [3, 5]; it may be isolated [4] or in association with other craniofacial anomalies [3, 4, 6]. In our case, it occurred in association with another midline craniofacial anomaly: the cleft lip and palate (Figure 1). The cleft lip and palate defect occurs due to defect in the fusion of frontonasal, maxillary, and mandibular processes, while the proboscis lateralis occurs as a result of displacement of the nasal placode during the formation of the nose [1, 2]. The coexistence of the proboscis lateralis and the facial clefting in this case cannot be readily explained, except one speculates that this could be by freak of nature or that these two independent abnormalities are occurring concurrently during the gestation period of 4\u20136 weeks at which the frontonasomaxillary and mandibular processes are undergoing differentiation into the various organs. More specifically, since the nose, face, and palate usually develop at the same time during embryogenesis, we therefore hypothesized that there might have been an assault to these processes with resultant anomalies during embryogenesis.\nThe case presented here is a clinical diagnosis postnatally, whereas some authors [6, 11] have documented the use of ultrasound in the diagnosis of this condition, while CT and MRI evaluation helps to identify any cerebral anomalies [8, 9].\nProboscis lateralis usually occurs in association with absence of the nose on the same side [3, 5]; however, it may occur from an accessory nasal placode as seen in our case. Occurrence is usually in the midline; however, cases occurring in the nasal root [5], in the lateral canthus [5], bilaterally [6], and in the chin [12] have been documented.\nBoo-Chai [2] suggested a classification of this entity proboscis lateralis in 1985 describing 4 groups depending on the clinical presentation:\u2009Group I: lateral proboscis with normal nose (least common).\u2009Group II: lateral proboscis with an ipsilateral deformity of the nose (second in frequency).\u2009Group III: lateral proboscis with ipsilateral deformity of the nose, eye, and/or ocular adnexa (the most common type).\u2009Group IV: lateral proboscis with ipsilateral deformity of the nose, eye, and/or ocular adnexa, plus the cleft lip and/or palate. However, Sakamoto et al. [7] proposed a new classification in 2012 following a review of 50 cases by adding 2 new groups to Boo-Chai\u2019s classification.\u2009Group V: lateral proboscis with encephalocele.\u2009Group VI: lateral proboscis with holoprosencephaly. The case reported here fits into group IV; except the eye and ocular adnexa, all were normal. We believe that the proboscis in this report was from the accessory nasal placode.\nThe surgical treatment of lateral proboscis depends on the clinical type. For group I, simple excision would suffice. In our case, simple excision (amputation) was done via elliptical incision since the noses were normal with satisfactory results (Figure 2) with repair of the cleft lip. For groups II\u2013IV, a multistage and multidisciplinary approach is necessary. Furthermore, we suggest an early surgery to avoid psychological effects on the patients.\nA rare case of lateral proboscis with clefts of the lip, alveolus, and primary and secondary palates treated by surgical excision and repair of the cleft lip is presented.\nM.

        "raw_content": "Henry Ford test-drives his \u201cQuadricycle\u201d\nAt approximately 4:00 a.m. on June 4, 1896, in the shed behind his home on Bagley Avenue in Detroit, Henry Ford unveils the \u201cQuadricycle,\u201d the first automobile he ever designed or drove.\nFord was working as the chief engineer for the main plant of the Edison Illuminating Company when he began working on the Quadricycle. On call at all hours to ensure that Detroit had electrical service 24 hours a day, Ford was able to use his flexible working schedule to experiment with his pet project\u2013building a horseless carriage with a gasoline-powered engine. His obsession with the gasoline engine had begun when he saw an article on the subject in a November 1895 issue of American Machinistmagazine. The following March, another Detroit engineer named Charles King took his own hand-built vehicle\u2013made of wood, it had a four-cylinder engine and could travel up to five miles per hour\u2013out for a ride, fueling Ford\u2019s desire to build a lighter and faster gasoline-powered model.\nAs he would do throughout his career, Ford used his considerable powers of motivation and organization to get the job done, enlisting friends\u2013including King\u2013and assistants to help him bring his vision to life. After months of work and many setbacks, Ford was finally ready to test-drive his creation\u2013basically a light metal frame fitted with four bicycle wheels and powered by a two-cylinder, four-horsepower gasoline engine\u2013on the morning of June 4, 1896. When Ford and James Bishop, his chief assistant, attempted to wheel the Quadricycle out of the shed, however, they discovered that it was too wide to fit through the door. To solve the problem, Ford took an axe to the brick wall of the shed, smashing it to make space for the vehicle to be rolled out.\nWith Bishop bicycling ahead to alert passing carriages and pedestrians, Ford drove the 500-pound Quadricycle down Detroit\u2019s Grand River Avenue, circling around three major thoroughfares. The Quadricycle had two driving speeds, no reverse, no brakes, rudimentary steering ability and a doorbell button as a horn, and it could reach about 20 miles per hour, easily overpowering King\u2019s invention. Aside from one breakdown on Washington Boulevard due to a faulty spring, the drive was a success, and Ford was on his way to becoming one of the most formidable success stories in American business history.\nhttps://www.history.com/this-day-in-history/henry-ford-test-drives-his-quadricycle\nFour dozen people witness \u201cThe gig that changed the world\u201d\nIt seems millions of people claim to have been at Woodstock when only 500,000 or so were really there, but the biggest pop-culture event of the 1960s has nothing on one of the most pivotal of the 1970s: the Sex Pistols\u2019 appearance at the Lesser Free Trade Hall in Manchester, ...read more\nOperation Dynamo at Dunkirk ends\nAs the German army advances through northern France during the early days of World War II, it cuts off British troops from their French allies, forcing an enormous evacuation of soldiers across the North Sea from the town of Dunkirk to England.

        "raw_content": "Home Research > Parliaments > 1640-1660 > 1653\nParliament in 1643, from An Exact Collection of all Remonstrances...\n4 July 1653-12 Dec. 1653\nOn the expulsion of the Rump Parliament on 20 April 1653 by Oliver Cromwell, lord general of the army, supreme power in the nation rested with Cromwell himself. An assembly was called which first met in July, and which adopted the title of parliament, even though none of its members was elected. It began life as a radical assembly, which pursued reforming legislation of which Cromwell at that point in his career approved. Its title comes from the surname of one of its members who represented London, even though he played no particularly significant role in its proceedings. After a short while, it became evident that the membership of this parliament had become more divided politically than Cromwell and his advisers had anticipated, and on 12 December, a majority of the members surrendered their authority to Cromwell, who immediately put in hand plans to inaugurate a protectorate.\nAt the time of the summoning of the Barebones Parliament, Cromwell was sympathetic to the optimism of those radical protestants in political life known as millenarians. They believed that the creation of a commonwealth in which godly values prevailed was possible, and Cromwell was open to the suggestion that difficulties with earlier parliaments could be overcome if the members were hand-picked instead of being sent to Westminster by the usual uncertainties of parliamentary elections. Some members were recommended by \u2018gathered\u2019 congregations, that is, churches which appointed their own ministers and managed their own affairs; others were known to the council which advised Cromwell; others were recommended by senior army officers. Each member received a summons to appear at Westminster in the name of Cromwell as lord general. At its inauguration on 4 July, the members listened to a high-flown speech by Cromwell which encouraged the members to initiate reform and which contrasted the hopes for this assembly with the disappointments of previous parliaments, set against the background of the traumatic events of civil war and revolution.\nThis Parliament has been called by various titles. The member whose name has provided the popular title was Praisegod Barebone or Barbon, a member of the London Company of Leathersellers. Despite the contemporary name of 'Praisegod' bestowed on him, he consistently signed his name 'Praise Barbone'. He was a religious radical who, though not an ordained clergyman, was an active preacher and leader of a gathered congregation in London. His singular name provided an obvious focus for the ridicule that royalists and conservatives of other kinds heaped on the assembly. A variant of the epithet 'Barebones Parliament' is 'Barebone's Parliament', but the least prejudiced and most accurate title is 'the Nominated Assembly'.\nApart from the way in which it was summoned not elected, another peculiarity of this Parliament was that members were summoned to represent constituencies called 'Scotland', 'Ireland' and 'Wales', the first two by virtue of Cromwell's conquest of those countries. Ireland had 6 members allocated to it, Scotland 5 and Wales 6. Although the original intention had been that there would be 70 members, following the model of the Jewish Sanhedrin, the need to make the parliament representative of the nation raised the total to 144, which included 5 members co-opted, including Cromwell himself.\nThe assembly quickly took a series of votes which demonstrated that its members saw themselves as standing fully within the parliamentary tradition. They chose to bestow the title Speaker on the presiding officer, and voted to call themselves a parliament. The Speaker they chose was an elderly and highly religious man, Francis Rous, typical of the men called to that particular office, and they appointed Henry Scobell, the clerk of the parliament Cromwell had turned out, as clerk to this one. In comparison to its predecessor, the members of this parliament worked long hours and initiated an energetic programme of reform. Among the areas on which they successfully legislated were on the laws of marriage and on the subject of debt. In August an act was passed removing marriage from the oversight of the clergy and requiring parishes to appoint civil registrars to record weddings. Parish registers surviving from this period cast light on the implementation of this act, and show how in many places the registrars were local justices of the peace. Another law set up special judges to adjudicate on cases of debt. The normal practice was for debtors to be imprisoned, the well-off among them comfortably, the poor in squalor, and the act attempted to introduce a measure of equity in the way these cases were treated. Other bills did not reach fruition, among them a bold plan to abolish the court of chancery and introduce a simple and speedy legal code.\nThe radical and conservative wings of this Parliament clashed over a number of issues, but none was more divisive than that of religion. The radicals in the assembly, many of whom were active in gathered, Independent congregations, had little appetite for any kind of national organized church, whereas their more conservative colleagues valued the control that the state exercised over the standards of the clergy and were not prepared to see tithes and other forms of property, which supported them, swept away. It was a vote on whether a state church should continue that fatally divided the members, and provoked the resignation of the moderates on 12 December 1653. the effect was to provoke Cromwell\u2019s closest political associates into producing a written constitution, the Instrument of Government, which ushered in the Cromwellian protectorate.",

Now the other elite team members of that mission have been eliminated one by one. Evan investigates and realizes that the man who started the Program that turned him into an assassin is cleaning up and having the other orphans killed as well. Rather than wait for the inevitable, he decides to go on the defensive and take out the man who started the orphan Program.\nWhy is his former superior now taking out these operatives? Nonetheless, it will take more than meticulous planning and skill to succeed, since this man is the most heavily guarded person in the world: the president of the United States.\nThe president knows he has to fight back, so he pulls his very first recruit, Orphan A, out of a federal penitentiary. Orphan A has no moral values, and his first job is to murder all potential witnesses before he kills Orphan X. With the help of two fellow inmates who find pleasure in inflicting pain on others, Orphan A knows exactly how to get Orphan X once and for all.\nEvan always tries to do the right thing, and he goes out of his way to help others who are dealing with insurmountable odds. He usually levels the playing field by his skill set, but this time he might be outmatched.\n\"Out of the Dark\" by Gregg Hurwitz takes the reader on a journey that covers a wide range of emotions from potential love to outright terror. The relentless action and detailed mission planning make the tale both clever and smart. Hurwitz continues to profile this stellar character and improve with each new installment. It's only the end of January, but this novel will be remembered as one of the best thrillers of the year.",

        "raw_content": "Being your own boss and owning your own business is something many people dream of. The way to make a success is to know the right information and to avoid mistakes others make. Use the information here to make your home-based business a successful.\nGet involved with online communities that support businesses run from home. There is good information available on the internet, and a quick search will result in a number of good sites. In addition to forums, you may find great information in a number of blogs.\nIt\u2019s vital that distractions from friends and family are eliminated when running a home business. Avoid interruptions which reduce productivity by making other family members aware of when you are working and when you are not. Let them know that by giving you your much needed privacy, you will finish quicker, leaving you more time to spend with them. If you have children, ensure that have proper supervision and you are available to them in case of an emergency.\nConsider the kind of profit you will be earning when you decide to start a home business. Check out the current market and see if it is over-saturated. If there are too many customers, you many not be able to compete. Conduct a financial analysis prior to starting.\nMake sure you actually have a set work schedule. Without setting concrete office hours, you may end up working all day, every day. Always pencil in some time alone, free from work, and keep a work schedule similar to the one you may have at a traditional job. You\u2019ll still have a social life later on if you do this.\nWorking from home provides plenty of comfortable benefits, but it also provides an atmosphere that could lead to you getting more easily burned out. It is important to have a separate area for work purposes. When you are finished with work, spend time with loved ones, rather than mixing your work and personal life.\nFind out who else runs a home business near you and network with them. One, you can learn from them the dos and the don\u2019ts. Additionally, you can discover local events to sponsor, thus getting your name out there. Getting to know other businesses helps to support your own business. It\u2019s great to step away from the computer to see people here and there too.\nMake a rule that during work hours you should not be interrupted by your family or friends unless it is important. If you have a family member or close friend who likes to show up uninvited, let them know that this is a business and you have work hours just like everybody else and request that they not disturb you. You can have them stay in another room, reading or watching television, and wait for when you go on break and can spend time with them.\nIf you can\u2019t prove a deduction, don\u2019t take it! Track your expenses, and get information with regard to the type of things you can deduct on your taxes. Make sure that you only claim on items that are used for business, not personal use.\nOne of the most cost efficient ways of advertising is through the internet. Either by yourself or through a professional designer, have an easily navigable website constructed for your customers. Your content should be useful, and there should also be a section to order products online, as well as a feedback form. Find out more about how to create a successful website for your business.\nMake sure that you utilize search engine optimization to enhance your home business, and use it so that you can move up the ranks with search engines. This is an instrumental means of making your online presence brought to the attention of more visitors. Be sure to get your information from a variety of sources, because there are many opinions.\nAs a home business owner, you should be consistently aware of your closest competitors\u2019 prices. This helps keep you competitive, and you can then explain your prices.\nWhen running a home business, a good rule of thumb is to spend 20% of the time learning the ropes, and 80% actually doing the work. If you\u2019re making money, that is \u201cdoing\u201d, so anything which you can complete to increase revenue needs to take up the bulk of your time.\nDevote more time and effort to making sure your website is reliable than to making it flashy. You want to make sure that no matter what the device or browser, that your site loads properly and clearly on each one e,ach time. Ensuring the same user experience will mean that everyone can read all the information about your company that they need to, and be able to choose your services.\nIf you have a home business, expect lots of phone calls. It is ideal to have a separate phone line for your business. An additional phone allows you to turn off the ringer if you do not wish to be disturbed about business matters.\nIncrease the sales ability of your home business site beyond the neighborhood. You don\u2019t just have to sell products locally; instead put your product on your website and install a shopping cart so people can buy online, too. Many online providers allow you to register domain names at affordable rates.\nDetermine what people think of your website and the products that you are advertising. You can get feedback by hosting surveys, searching for reviews that have been posted about your website, or simply asking someone directly for an opinion. Knowing what people think, whether it\u2019s good or bad, helps you to know what is working and what needs improvement.\nCreate a schedule of work hours. You should note down the times when you will be working and adhere to them so as to not burn yourself out. There will be occasions when you have to work at unscheduled times, but try to stick to your planned hours as closely as possible. Quality time with your loved ones is a great stress-reliever, so put work to the side and enjoy your family time.\nMany people aim to own a home business. And, to succeed, you need some great advice and information on home businesses.

ATI launched what is the world's first 40nm GPUs: the ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4860 and ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4830. Both GPUs support DirectX 10.1 games and HD content as well as being energy efficient for increased battery life. The HD 4860 mobile GPU supports GDDR5 RAM with almost twice the performance of GDDR3 RAM. AMD says that by utilizing the 40nm technology it can build the GPU in a smaller ASIC die size, which in turn allows the discrete GPU to be used in smaller notebooks. NVIDIA also announced a set of new mobile GPUs: the GTX 280M, GTX 260M, GTS 160M and GTS 150M GPUs. NVIDIA claims that the GTX 280M is the world's fastest mobile GPU and offers 50% more performance than the previous generation of mobile enthusiast level GPUs. One important thing to mention; the mobile GTX series does not use the same chip as its desktop counterpart but instead uses the G92 chip used in the 9800 GTX+ desktop cards.",

It is not long until Elisabeth Vogel, the daughter of the resistances leader, is captured and held prisoner by the devious Helga. After getting the wrong side of Helga, Elisabeth forms a plan to become Helga's lover. This is all done in the hopes of escaping Helga's evil ways and to get back to her father.\nUnfortunately her plan backfires and she has to form an alliance with one of the other women prisoners to escape, and help the resistance in overthrowing the current people in power of the country. HELGA, SHE WOLF OF STILBERG is a tame rip off of the far superior ILSA series of films which began in 1975 with ILSA, SHE WOLF OF THE SS. Where as Ilsa would have her prisoners flogged relentlessly until they are bleeding or worse, Helga flogs hers until they are a little sore. Helga is played by the lovely looking Malisa Longo who spends most of the film either in very tight leather trousers or in a nightgown. She would later go on to star in Lucio Fulci's A CAT IN THE BRAIN. The music for the film seems like very odd choices throughout with a mixture of jazz and blues, even if the film had been more violent these songs would take away from the violence. Those who watch these women in prison films expecting nudity will be pleased but the obligatory shower scenes are a no show. Patrice Rhomm directed this film under the name Alain Garnier. Probably his most famous film is the Erika Blanc starrer THE DEVIL'S NIGHTMARE (1971) which he has a writing credit for. HELGA, SHE WOLF OF STILBERG is far from the worst of the women in prison films but even further away from being the best.\nLabels: Alain Garnier, Euro Cult, Euro Sleaze, Helga She Wolf Of Stilberg, Maison Rouge, Screenbound, Women In Prison\nMichael Fisher 27 March 2017 at 08:14\nRob Griffiths 27 March 2017 at 14:15\nlucyb 28 March 2017 at 10:42\nMarc H 28 March 2017 at 13:35\nKelly Jones 28 March 2017 at 19:58\nb) Germany :)\nWarren Lee 29 March 2017 at 19:10\nMickie Bull 16 April 2017 at 14:37\nSuzanne Jackson 19 April 2017 at 14:36\nmonkeyhanger 27 April 2017 at 23:48",

        "raw_content": "Bullet Train Opponents Urge Japanese Ambassador Not to Support the Houston-to-Dallas Line\nTexas Central wants to build a Houston-to-Dallas high-speed rail line, and those against the project are now appealing to the Japanese ambassador.\nPhotos of the N700 from Japanese Rail Central\nDianna Wray | January 13, 2016 | 6:00am\nTexans Against High-Speed Rail has long been vocal about its opposition to Texas Central Partner's plans to use shinkansen technology to build a Houston-to-Dallas high-speed rail line. But now it has really upped the ante with, well, a letter.\nOn Monday the coalition that's formed to fight the bullet train found an unexpected way to make it clear that they intend to fight the project tooth and nail. How? They wrote a letter to Kenichiro Sasae, the Japanese ambassador to the United States, pledging to oppose the project.\nYeah, we were a little puzzled by this one, too.\nThe group is intent on fighting the project, a high-speed rail line that will take passengers from Houston to Dallas in just 90 minutes, as we wrote in our August cover story \"On the Line,\" citing the damage to rural land, the fact that there probably won't be stops between Houston and Dallas, and a slew of other concerns as motivation.\nMonday's letter was written by Grimes County Judge Ben Leman and signed by 33 officials including state legislators, county judges, county commissioners and sub-regional planning commission members, and was sent off to the Japanese embassy in Washington, D.C.\nLeman, who is also one of the founders of Texans Against High-speed Rail, explained the reasoning behind sending the letter to Sasae. Leman contends Texas Central is primarily being funded by the Japanese, and not by Texas investors the way Texas Central officials have claimed. \"Instead of relying on TCP to convey our sentiments to those Japanese parties involved in this project we decided to relay our sentiments directly,\" Leman says. \"We're not clear on which parts of the Japanese government is involved, so we're relying on the ambassador to convey our message to all the different parties involved.\" Hence, the letter.\nThere has indeed been news that the Japan Overseas Infrastructure Investment Corporation for Transport & Urban Development, a fund partly owned by the Japanese government, has kicked in $40 million with Texas Central. Leman maintains that the $40 million invested by the Japanese fund is another indication that Texas Central is a project focused on Japanese interests and can't be trusted, so he decided opponents should go around the company and address the Japanese directly. Or, at least, you know, Sasae.\n(Texas Central denied that the Japanese investment meant anything. \"The recent investment in our Texas project by a leading public-private partnership in Japan shows that this project is of national and global significance, and expect that kind of interest continuing to grow,\" the company stated.)\nThe letter to the Japanese ambassador starts off firmly but politely declining the Japanese plan to bring bullet trains to Texas. \"While we respect your country\u2019s ambitious goal of exporting the Shinkansen technology, as residents and leaders in East Texas, we remain opposed to the HSR Project because it will cause irreparable harm to our communities,\" the letter states.\nLeman and the others who signed off on the letter seem to assume that Sasae is in on the Japanese plan to export shinkansen technology to other countries \u2014 and it's true, Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe has been pushing the sale of these trains for a while now \u2014 and that Sasae keeps minute-by-minute tabs on everything that goes on here in Texas, especially when it comes to the high-speed rail project.\n\"As you are probably aware, during the recently concluded Texas legislative session, the Texas Senate unanimously voted to prohibit any state support for the HSR project,\" it reads, before acknowledging that the budget prohibition was ultimately removed after state lawmakers got assurances and legal analysis that concluded the state won't end up supporting the Houston-to-Dallas line.\nThe letter also mentions that Texas Central officials have stated that the company \"does not desire to use eminent domain to acquire the necessary rail of right-of way,\" before making it clear that Texas Central is going to have to use eminent domain to get this thing done, because \"in Texas pride of family heritage has no price tag\" and there are \"multitudes of private property owners who do not want to sell their farms, ranches and private property\" to Texas Central.\nThe whole thing wraps up with assurances that, basically, the Japanese should give up on bringing their fancy bullet trains to Texas because there's a whole bunch of Texans who won't be allowing it. In fact, they're just letting Sasae \u2014 and from there, we're assuming all Japanese officials \u2014 know out of concern for the Japanese interests, according to the letter:\n\"Just as much as we do not want this [high-speed rail] project to destroy our communities, we do not want the Japanese citizens who invest in the Japan Bank for International Cooperation to lose money when the [high-speed rail] project fails. There may be other places that are far better suited for and would welcome your Shinkansen technology. We encourage you to seek out a different market where this would provide an actual transportation solution and where you may encounter less opposition.\nA hard copy of the letter was mailed to the Japanese embassy, and Leman says he's following up with an email version to confirm that Sasae received the letter. \"We're hoping Japanese interests read the letter and then reach out to us to discuss the details of the letter more directly. We see this as a fight just getting started. There are many ways to oppose this project, and we will continue to coordinate our efforts in the corridor; we'll continue our efforts to educate state officials and ultimately we're going to stop it,\" Leman says.\nFingers crossed that Sasae replies, also via a letter, and promptly.",

        "raw_content": "The Difference Between Romance and Love\nOne of the best love stories I know doesn't include a guy in fancy clothes and a gal in a gown. It doesn't include a pair of youngsters who hit the genetic lottery and are smitten with each other at first sight.\nIt doesn't comprise a tale of families trying to keep their kids of rival clans from hitting on each other. Not even a billionaire and a secretary make this story. There are no time travelers, vampires or even a notebook.\nIn fact, this story involves chemotherapy -- and hospice care.\nYou see, a local acquaintance won't be celebrating his Valentine's Day at a concert, restaurant, romantic movie, dancing or any other place where thoughtful significant others often go to celebrate a great holiday. He'll be celebrating it at the local hospice care, while his wife receives chemo treatment.\nEvery picture on Facebook of the two of them, you see a series of nodes and sensors attached to her. Most times, she's resting, too exhausted to do the moves most of us take for granted.\nBut there are a few things you'll see that keep this from being a completely bleak picture, if you look close enough.\nHer husband is always posting photos of beautiful sunrises. You'll see her smiling, when surrounded by the happy faces of her grandkids and nieces. And when she's sleeping, her husband has his hand on her head, and even sometimes plants a kiss. There's real love in these images.\nThere's also other signs of love -- purple flowers on a table, prayers from family and friends on Facebook, well-wishes from others. Love isn't just limited to a couple.\nIt's not the only local love story. All across our town, there are stories of people in prominent positions, showing compassion for spouses fighting cancer and other afflictions that attack us silently.\nThere's a couple and their kids caring so much for adopted son. Another couple and their daughter do all they can for a son who has never been able to move or speak a word on his own in his life. I know friends and colleagues going the extra mile for an elderly parent, dealing with the trials and tribulations of aging.\nSometimes these stories are missed by Hollywood, but shouldn't be.\nThese are the stories that should inspire us. Because that's what life is like. And many of us need that inspiration as we confront struggles of our own.\nWe have a myriad of elements that go after spouses, significant others, parents and kids where we're called upon to show our true colors in a way a film or television series could never capture.\nHow can we do it? The best way involves seeking help from others and a higher power, if that's your belief system. It also involves sharing our own stories of struggle with others.\nYou may not realize it, but those tales you tell can provide just the inspiration and dedication another person needs to confront what life throws his or her way, instead of bottling it up or trying to solve everything alone.\nTherefore, happy Valentine's Day to all the real lovers out there, who taught me something about love I would have never received from popular culture.\nJohn A.

        "raw_content": "Business sales and purchases can involve small and medium entities through to international company sales and disposals. Regardless of the nature or size of the transaction, it is crucial that the deal is structured appropriately and all key issues are properly addressed.\nOne of the fundamental issues to consider from the outset is whether the disposal or purchase should be of assets or shares of the target company. Once instructed our corporate specialists explore the nature of the transaction with the client and any other professional advisers involved (eg accountants or tax specialists). This cohesive approach helps us to guide the client on the detailed structure of the transaction which will be the most beneficial for the client. Our ethos is that whilst tax efficiency should not be the sole driving force behind the deal structure it is a fundamental factor that needs to be given priority and considered carefully.\nOur corporate specialists have advised on deals of all sizes (including management buy-outs and management buy-ins) ranging from values in the thousands to multi-million pound transactions. We ensure that the same level of care, professionalism and attention to detail is provided throughout, irrespective of the size of the deal. We also regularly act for both buyers and sellers and so understand all the relevant deal dynamics, so we can provide strategic and commercially focused advice.\nMost transactions are inevitably complex and the obligations and potential liabilities may not be obvious to a lay person. It is therefore important to ensure that the transactional documents, when finalised, reflect the deal actually agreed and the client fully understands the obligations and implications entered into.\nThe corporate team has extensive knowledge and expertise to advise on all aspects of a potential transaction including:\ninitial structuring of the deal;\nconducting the due diligence;\ndrafting and negotiating the terms of the transactional documents; and\ndealing with post completion matters.\nIf you are considering the acquisition, disposal or merger of a business, we advise that you get us involved from an early stage, for example when negotiating the value of the transaction, non\u00addisclosure agreements or heads of terms, as this will often help avoid significant pitfalls and the incurrence of unnecessary loss or costs further into the process.\nIf you wish to discuss your requirements in more detail the please call us on 01895 207264 or email us at corporate@ibblaw.co.uk.",

        "title": "Beware of Email Scams Targeting Contractors - IE3: Business Tools for HVAC & Plumbing Contractors",
        "raw_content": "Beware of Email Scams Targeting Contractors\nYou receive an email offering a \u201cservice\u201d to match \u201ctrue professionals\u201d like your company to paying customers, along with \u201ccertifying\u201d your company as a legitimate enterprise. The only requirement is to submit your information to the website, with the potential to begin receiving referrals from prospective customers within minutes. On the other hand, the email warns that failure to sign up with the service will result in your company receiving a negative label of \u201cnot certified\u201d and being subjected to receiving only negative reviews from visitors to its website.\nTargeted for a Scam\nWhile the email and the organization may look legitimate on the surface, in fact, your company has likely been targeted for a scam. That was recent the experience of an ACCA member company. However, a sharp-eyed person at the company recognized a number of red flags that signaled that this \u201cservice\u201d was less than what it appeared. This member company, which did not wish to be identified by name for fear of retaliation, reported the scam to the Federal Trade Commission, according to a spokesperson for the company.\n\u201cWe spend a ridiculous amount of time and money managing phone calls and emails with questionable legitimacy. This business cost can be burdensome for small businesses. We must train our CSRs how to identify and screen calls, buy software to protect our computer systems, invest in multiple backup systems, etc. We all need be vigilant protecting our coworkers\u2019 and our clients\u2019 personal information and be extremely careful about the outside services we give access to this data,\u201d the company spokesperson stated.\nVigilance is indeed the best defense against attempted scams such as the one that targeted this company. Following the tips listed below can prevent your company from being victimized.\n\u201c (The organization claims that) \u2018Our service is simple and easy, let us write a press release announcing your X certification that we guarantee will appear on at least 350 media sites or we will give you a 100% refund).\u2019 MEDIA sites? That doesn\u2019t mean anything. How can you prove they didn\u2019t (announce your certification) to get your refund? \u201cthe spokesperson insisted.\nThe organization\u2019s website also claims to offer malware and dark web security scanning. Without a doubt, malware and cyber security are important and legitimate concerns. However, the inclusion of this type of service seems questionable at best for an organization supposedly dedicated to providing certification for HVAC contractors. Meanwhile, the claim for \u201cfree\u201d certification service turns out to be misleading, according to the company spokesperson.\n\u201cThey say it is free to join and get certified, but when you check it out, you can see that the free membership does not get you fully certified -you won\u2019t get a full endorsement without spending money-and let them scan your website for malware and security issues,\u201d the spokesperson stated.\nBeware of Deceptive .org Websites\nThe spokesperson also pointed out that the organization\u2019s website had an .org domain. While many .org domains are primarily associated with nonprofit and social service organizations, there are no actual restrictions associated with .org domains. Unlike .edu and .gov domains, which may legally be registered only with specific domain registrars, .org domains can be purchased and used by any individual or organization \u2013 nonprofit or commercial.\n\u201cThey make a big effort to legitimize themselves. They list every possible newspaper and news site, with their logos, but they only say about the list that: \u2018Our average certified press release receives over 350 media placements, below is an example of where placements typically appear. We can get your business the exposure it deserves, and we guarantee it!\u2019 (However, the company provides) no real commitment to get you listed in any of the listed, known sites. They seem to be trying to give the impression that they have legitimate government affiliation to certify companies licensing,\u201d the spokesperson noted.\nObvious Red Flags\nThis organization claimed to be \u201ca private consumer advocacy organization that oversees the proper licensing of HVAC and heating industry contractors and a platform for consumers to voice their opinions with local air conditioning and heating companies,\u201d according to its website. However, a closer look at this statement reveals its absurdity. In particular, the phrase \u201cHVAC and heating industry\u201d is redundant, given that the \u201cH\u201d in HVAC stands for heating.\nHowever, there are even more obvious problems associated with this organization. An online search for licensing and certifying organizations for the HVACR industry located in the United States or abroad fails to include this particular organization. Neither is it listed with the Better Business Bureau. The website itself does not include a contact phone number or email address.\nOther red flags associated with this potential scam include poor grammar and punctuation. Awkward phrasing of the site\u2019s content suggests that English might not be the first language for the person(s) responsible for assembling the website. The website also had an overall unprofessional appearance, as noted by the company spokesperson.\n\u201cTheir website has familiar icons like the \u201cI\u2019m not a robot \u2013 CAPTCHA\u201d icon so many sites use. (But) They don\u2019t have the program or a test, just a box to check. There are a ridiculous number of American flags on their site, but they are not in the US,\u201d the spokesperson explained. (In fact, the website for the organization lists an address in Nevis.)\nProtect Yourself against Attempted Scams\nThe organization associated with this scan plays on the legitimate concerns of business owners for cyber security, along with relying on fear tactics designed to intimidate would-be victims into paying for its services, according to the company spokesperson.\n\u201cThere are dire consequences listed for not using them ASAP and for everything they sell or do:\n\u2018Even a single negative customer review can drastically affect your business\u2019, and their website only allows negative feedback. The bit about how our website is unsafe and they can scan it so we can be assured our \u2018customers\u2019 information is not being stolen and sold on the dark web from an unknown virus or phishing\u2019. The DARK WEB, ooooooooooo,\u201d the company spokesperson stated, scoffing at the heavy-handed tactic.\nThe take home lesson: practicing due diligence can protect your company from being victimized by potential deceptive organization, according to the company representative.\n\u201cIt looks like they just collect a lot of personal information and then refer them cold to lenders they could find themselves on Google. It really appears they are just after the information. They seem to be riding a line, if you give them all your information and they refer you to someone, they have not committed fraud. You just don\u2019t need them, and there is a danger is trusting a place like this that has solicited you,\u201d the representative stated.\nPrevious : Sponsored Content: How To Get Total Market Domination In Your Service Area\nNext : When Do I Have To Start Paying Overtime?",

        "title": "The challenge of citizen journalism - IFEX",
        "raw_content": "The challenge of citizen journalism\nA decade ago, the term \"citizen journalism\" was nearly as mainstream as the mainstream news itself. Anyone with access to a computer could contribute to the news, raising the question of the role of professional journalism. Today, with the rise of social media and the constant flow of digital information, what does citizen journalism mean?\nWorld Association of Newspapers and News Publishers 4 December 2017\nPhotographers and citizen journalists hold a banner of their fellow photographers currently in prison during an anti-government protest in the village of Bilad al-Qadeem, Bahrain, 22 November 2013\nThis statement was originally published on wan-ifra.org on 27 November 2017.\nIn July 2016, elementary school worker Philando Castile's shooting death by a Minnesota police officer captivated the United States. His girlfriend Diamond Reynolds had pulled out her cell phone at the time of Castile's death, filming the scene and live blogging it on Facebook. While there were aspects of his death that remained contentious, much of what happened was available for the world to see.\nReynolds probably didn't consider herself a citizen journalist at the time, but she - and so many others around the globe - are using their cell phones to record daily events and broadcast them across social media. They're going where mainstream journalists can't go, where authorities aren't, and they're providing information that isn't available anywhere else. Citizen journalists are changing the news media landscape of today - only many wouldn't call themselves as such.\nDr Saqib Riaz, an associate professor of mass communication at Allama Iqbal Open University in Islamabad, Pakistan, says the title has changed but the phenomenon is still the same.\n\"Now, social media has taken the job of citizen journalism,\" he says. \"Basically, social media is an advanced form of citizen journalism that has made it possible for each and every person to be a citizen journalist, upload still and moving images, photographs, videos, audios, comments and many other things.\"\nLess than a decade ago, social media was just starting to find its footing. When smart phone technology exploded around the world in 2013, recording daily events and uploading content via social media became commonplace. And that threatened - and continues to threaten - how professional journalists do their jobs. As it is physically impossible for journalists to be present at every event, social movement or crime scene in the world, people rely heavily on this new form of citizen journalism.\n\"When things happen or there's breaking news, we expect citizens to be there and to be the first ones on the scene,\" says Stuart Allan, Professor and Head of the School of Journalism, Media and Cultural Studies at Cardiff University.\nBut Allan says that while experts may call the phenomenon citizen journalism, not all citizens may be aware that they're taking part in creating the news.\n\"There are plenty of people who go to the scene, document it with a cell phone and upload it to social media but don't consider themselves journalists,\" says Allan. \"And then there are some people who have a desk job during the day and at night will go to cover a local meeting at night now that their local paper doesn't exist.\"\nIn the same way citizen journalism functioned years ago as a way for little-known news to get reported, the current social media documentation of events offers a way for people to get news about anything and everything. And the mainstream media - while it has mixed feelings about the role of social media in capturing the news - relies heavily on this information.\n\"Many untold and unreported news stories appear every day on social media and traditional media picks them up and publishes or broadcasts them,\" says Dr. Riaz. \"If you see something happening before you, you can simply record it on your phone and share it on social media. This is the simple philosophy and strength of today's citizen journalism.\"\nSocial media can also go where mainstream media won't go, due to safety concerns. Citizen journalists have been vital to getting news from Syria since its seven-year-long civil war began. Most mainstream media outlets in the West have been unwilling to send journalists to Yemen to report on the on-going crisis, due to fears for their safety. And in the tribal areas of Pakistan, where the country's 2,000-kilometer border with Afghanistan has become a war zone in the last two decades, social media has played an essential role in the war against terrorism.\n\"It was only citizen journalism that captured many terrorism-related activities and later on, this news was picked up by the international media,\" says Dr. Riaz.\nBut while the international media often welcomes content from citizen journalists, there are times when it seems to hinder professional reporting. The ease with which citizens can upload content online makes it infinitely impossible to verify sources and information, and has given rise to an onslaught of fake news.\nUS President Donald Trump's use of Twitter to broadcast information has been impulsive at best, with numerous instances of nefarious or dubious information gracing his social media account - only to later become fodder for mainstream news articles.\nSifting through what is true or not has made traditional media - and their ability to independently verify information indelibly more important. Even amidst the social media storm - and often thanks to it - news outlets are using tried and true techniques to check information uploaded online before republishing it. Dr. Allan says that media houses can verify images by taking them apart or use methods to check whether a person was where they claimed to be.\n\"The NY Times will say Trump is the best thing to have happened for its subscription rate,\" says Allan. \"People are starting to see that they have to pay for good quality reporting.\"\nWhile the future of the news and how it is defined is constantly in flux, citizen journalism - and social media - appears to be here to stay. But, according to Allan, there's nothing necessarily wrong with that. He says that while the media needs to have a serious conversation about what good reporting is and how to maintain professional integrity, citizen journalism is \"real\" news that can certainly enter into the fore.\n\"In journalism, there's plenty of room for a healthy, vibrant debate that includes as many people as possible,\" says Allan. \"It just makes it more of a challenge.\"\nPOSTED IN: International Access to Information Attacks",

        "raw_content": "Looking for information on periodontal disease treatment? Whether you know for sure that you have gum disease or just think you have gum disease, it is essential that you make a plan for treating your gum disease. Healthy gums should be firm to the touch and pale pink in color. Gums that are not healthy tend to be swollen, tender to the touch and red in color. If you think you have gum disease, know that the longer you wait, the more difficult it will be to treat your gum disease. This makes time of the utmost importance.\nCauses and risk factors of periodontal disease\nPlaque that is left on the teeth too long is what leads to a periodontal disease diagnosis. This is why it is essential for everyone to brush their teeth at least twice a day and floss at least once a day to remove any built-up plaque that may be existing on the teeth. Once plaque is allowed to harden and build on the teeth, it will begin to fill up with bacteria and eventually turn into tartar. Too much tartar leads to a gingivitis diagnosis, the mildest form of periodontal disease.\nRisk factors that can make it worse include smoking, being overweight, taking certain medications, inadequate nutrition, being diagnosed with certain diseases like diabetes, having dry mouth and abusing substances.\nFour reasons for periodontal disease treatment\nThe following is a list of four reasons why someone may be in need of periodontal disease treatment?:\n#1 \u2013 To save teeth\nWhen someone is diagnosed with periodontal disease, they will need to get treatment in order to prevent tooth loss. Since our teeth are meant to last our entire lifetime, it is essential that we do everything we can in order to save our teeth. If someone does happen to lose one or more of their teeth, they will need to find a tooth replacement option so that they can once again have a healthy mouth.\n#2 \u2013 To get rid of disease-causing bacteria\nTreating periodontal disease allows for the removal of all disease-causing bacteria in the mouth. When the mouth is free of harmful bacteria it is once again considered to be a healthy mouth.\n#3 \u2013 To improve oral health\nWhen an experienced dental professional treats one of their patients for periodontal disease, they are fixing all of the negative things that are happening to their teeth and gums due to the disease.\n#4 \u2013 To improve overall health\nAccording to Harvard Health, people with periodontal disease have been found to be at higher risk for cardiovascular disease, diabetes, chronic respiratory disease, pregnancy complications and dementia.\nAre you currently in need of periodontal disease treatment?\nAre you currently in need of periodontal disease treatment?? As you now know from the information above, the sooner you seek treatment for any gum or teeth problems you are currently experiencing, the better. When you waited to seek treatment when you are experiencing oral problems, they will only continue to get worse.\nAre you considering periodontal disease treatment in the Bellevue area?

        "raw_content": "Home News Brief Paraguay-Argentina Crime Group Used Planes to Smuggle Marijuana\nA drug plane seized during the raid in Argentina\nAuthorities in Buenos Aires arrested 10 members of a binational criminal group that used planes to smuggle marijuana from Paraguay to Argentina, showing the enduring popularity of this method for moving large quantities of drugs.\nBuenos Aires police arrested five Paraguayans and five Argentines and seized 500 kilos of marijuana on March 27, reported La Naci\u00f3n. The operation, dubbed \u201cThe Lord of the Skies,\u201d also resulted in the confiscation of three planes that authorities say were used to smuggle marijuana from the Paraguayan capital of Asunci\u00f3n to a hangar 100 kilometers southeast of Buenos Aires.\nThe investigation, which lasted almost 18 months and included 6,000 hours of wiretapped surveillance, revealed that one of the group\u2019s planes made at least 30 cross-border trips last year. The modus operandi was to first send fumigation planes into the air to check whether it was safe for the drug planes to land, according to authorities.\nA judicial source close to the case told La Naci\u00f3n there is no evidence that any of the arrested members of the group had political connections in Argentina. The drug flights didn\u2019t arouse suspicion because fumigation planes frequently circled the area where the planes landed, reported ABC Color.\nThe operation\u2019s name harkens back to the powerful Mexican narco Amado Carrillo Fuentes, whose \u201cLord of the Skies\u201d alias referred to his fleet of drug-laden aircraft. The former head of the Ju\u00e1rez Cartel died on the operating table while having plastic surgery in 1997, but his preferred method for trafficking cocaine remains popular across Latin America. Traffickers then and now prefer smuggling large amounts of drugs via plane because the shipments pass through fewer hands than if they were sent by land or sea. This not only cuts out the middleman, it makes the smuggling operation less risky, as it lowers the potential for betrayal.\nEfforts to contain drug flights do appear to be working in some countries. Authorities in Honduras and Colombia say they have almost totally eradicated the use of drug planes thanks to increased aerial surveillance.\nNot all countries have had this type of success, however. Argentina enacted a controversial policy in January 2016 that authorizes the military to shoot down suspected drug planes, but it doesn\u2019t seem to have had much impact. In addition to the recent marijuana smuggling operation, officials said last November that an average of 40 drug planes coming from Bolivia land in Argentina every month.\nThe drug bust in Buenos Aires could also indicate that Paraguay\u2019s marijuana trade is becoming increasingly lucrative. An InSight Crime interview with the country\u2019s drug czar in 2014 revealed that the trafficking of Paraguayan marijuana could be a billion-dollar a year industry.",

Twitter\u2019s monthly active user base shrank by 9 million users in the fourth quarter compared to Q4 2017, marking the third consecutive quarter of negative growth for President Trump\u2019s digital megaphone.\nTo address the problem at hand, Twitter is taking a page out of Apple\u2019s playbook. Just like the iPhone-maker will no longer reveal unit sales for its products, presumably because it doesn\u2019t look as good as it used to, Twitter will simply stop reporting monthly active users going forward and focus on daily active users instead, which somewhat conveniently are still growing.\nTags clipped, twitter, wings\tPost navigation",

The latest charges allege that First Choice Healthcare Solutions Inc. CEO Christian Romandetti, the boiler room, and four others, manipulated the company\u2019s shares generating more than $3.3 million of illegal profits and more than $560,000 in kickbacks for Romandetti.\nThe SEC\u2019s complaint alleges that Romandetti and the other defendants duped more than 100 victims in a scheme that inflated First Choice\u2019s stock price from less than $1 per share to $3.40 per share. According to the complaint, from at least September 2013 until about June 2016, the defendants used multiple accounts in an attempt to disguise their trading, engaged in manipulative trading practices, and hired Elite Stock Research, a boiler room run by defendant Anthony Vassallo, to promote First Choice to vulnerable investors, some of who invested retirement savings.\n\u201cMicrocap fraud continues to be a pervasive source of harm to retail investors,\u201d said Carolyn M. Welshhans, Associate Director of the Division of Enforcement. \u201cInvestors should be on the lookout for individuals employing methods like the ones we allege in our complaint\u2014such as using unsolicited calls and high-pressure sales tactics.\u201d\nIn a related action in July 2017, the SEC originally charged boiler room Elite Stock Research, as well as another Long Island boiler room and 13 individuals, with bilking victims out of more than $10 million through high-pressure sales tactics and lies about penny stocks. Seven of those individuals have pleaded guilty to parallel criminal charges brought by the U.S. Attorney\u2019s Office for the Eastern District of New York. The SEC\u2019s litigation against the 13 individuals is continuing.\nToday\u2019s SEC action, filed in federal district court in Central Islip, New York, charges Romandetti, Vassallo, Mark Burnett, Jeffrey Miller, Frank Sarro and Elite Stock Research with fraud and Burnett, Miller, Sarro, and Vassallo with market manipulation. The SEC is seeking permanent injunctions, return of allegedly ill-gotten gains with interest, civil penalties, penny stock bars, and officer-and-director bars against Romandetti and Burnett.\nIn a parallel action, the U.S. Attorney\u2019s Office for the Eastern District of New York announced parallel criminal charges against Romandetti, Burnett, Miller, and Sarro.\nThe SEC encourages investors to check the backgrounds of people selling them investments by using the SEC\u2019s Investor.gov website to quickly identify whether they are registered professionals.\nThe SEC\u2019s continuing investigation is being conducted by Cecilia B. Connor and Andrew Elliott and supervised by Ms. Welshhans and Amy L. Friedman, with assistance from Leigh Barrett. The SEC\u2019s litigation will be handled by James Smith and Matthew Scarlato and supervised by Jan Folena. The SEC appreciates the assistance of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Federal Bureau of Investigation, and the U.S. Attorney\u2019s Office for the Eastern District of New York.\nMore About Boiler Room Schemes\nMore About Microcap Fraud",

        "title": "International School of Beijing News: Fueling a Passion to Help",
        "raw_content": "Fueling a Passion to Help\nby Yvonne Robertson\nBrian Germain, high school social studies teacher at the International School of Beijing (ISB), recently traveled to Bangladesh to bring aid to Rohingya refugees. Mr. Germain has volunteered at refugee camps during two summer breaks and one winter break, helping some of the world\u2019s most vulnerable populations.\nIn the summer of 2016, Mr. Germain was sitting in a refugee camp in Greece with a teenager paralyzed from the waist down.\n\u201cWhen his family left Syria, he chose to stay for another year to finish high school because he wanted to be a biochemist,\u201d said Mr. Germain. \u201cNow, all of a sudden, just because this kid wanted an education, he can\u2019t walk and is bedridden for the rest of his life. It\u2019s mind-blowing to hear stories like this. It\u2019s not right.\u201d\nWhen he returns to the classroom, he can\u2019t help but integrate his experiences. He uses these trips to lead discussions and teach lessons about nature vs. nurture, environment, cognitive processes, privilege, and compassion.\n\u201cThey get incredibly quiet,\u201d he said. \u201cWe discuss things like the cognitive process that makes a crisis like this break out. We look at the hierarchy of needs, what are the needs that are being met and not met. We discuss privilege and class differences, and how these affect us psychologically.\u201d\nMr. Germain spent his three-week winter break at one of the world\u2019s largest refugee camps, the Kutupalong camp in Bangladesh. The camp houses hundreds of thousands of Rohingya refugees.\nNavigating Kutupalong\nBesides Greece, Mr. Germain had also volunteered at a camp in Lebanon last summer prior to his trip to Kutupalong.\nBut neither experience would prepare him for Bangladesh.\n\u201cIt was pretty bad,\u201d he said. \u201cGreece was two years removed from the major influx, so for the most part there was a solid camp management, focal points for medical care, decent housing structures. The army is still in charge of regulating the Rohingya crisis because it\u2019s a crowd control issue, but they\u2019re not capable of managing all of it.\u201d\nThe newness of the situation and constant influx of new people made it difficult to connect with smaller NGOs that hadn\u2019t quite set up a robust plan of action. Larger organizations required longer time commitments. It meant Mr. Germain ended up traveling alone, unsupported by an organization.\nA passion to help to the point of being incapable of inaction had been ignited within him since Greece. It was this drive that fuelled his persistence in the face of numerous obstacles and little structure.\nEvery morning, he would take an almost three-hour trip to get to Kutupalong, where he would meet with person after person, organization after organization, consistently running up against barriers and frustrations.\n\u201cI have a crazy Type A, fast-paced personality, so it was very hard for me to leave without a plan,\u201d he said. \u201cBut people kept saying \u2018Just let us know when you get here.\u2019\"\n\u201cOnce I landed, I couldn\u2019t find a decent NGO that I trusted or wanted to connect with, so I ended up doing what I could on my own. It\u2019s very difficult. The situation is so new and so big\u2014people don\u2019t know what\u2019s going on under their noses.\u201d\nA stroke of luck and a chance encounter with a civil servant in charge of distribution at the camp changed the course of Mr. Germain\u2019s trip. This injection of hope resuscitated what had been shaping up to be a futile experience.\nHe tailed the civil servant for his remaining time at the camp, shopping for, and distributing aid.\n\u201cIt was a wild experience,\u201d he said. \u201cFood was a primary concern. The World Food Program is supposed to distribute supplies every two weeks, but sometimes the infrastructure isn\u2019t strong enough to do this, or the allocation gets messed up where certain families get double the amount and others have nothing.\u201d\nMr. Germain was further introduced to several Rohingya leaders, who helped him determine what food was needed and which families needed it most.\nHe, along with the leaders, then winded their way to a nearby city via tiny tuk-tuks. They spent the day \u201cwheeling and dealing,\u201d negotiating food prices at markets for almost eight hours.\nThe ride back to the camp was a convoy of tuk-tuks followed by two dump trucks filled with food and supplies, leaving Mr. Germain exhausted yet with a renewed sense of optimism.\n\u201cBy the end of the day, we had all this rice, onions, like 500 kilos of dried fish\u2014it was awesome.\u201d\nThe following day had about 40 men forming an assembly line to divide the supplies into 500 bags for the most critical families.\n\u201cIt was really cool to see,\u201d said Mr. Germain. \u201cI relied on the local leaders to identify who was most in need of the food, and trust in that moment that they had the best interest of their people.\n\u201cThe leaders are well-respected by the people they represent, so I do believe that to be the truth. They themselves fled the violence. I spent three or four days with them, walking around the camp and feeling out the situation, so I felt good about it.\u201d\nShadowing and learning from the local leaders quickly led to another project: sourcing sewing machines. Many of the women in the camps could make and sell clothes but lacked the equipment to do it.\nSo, it was back on the tuk-tuk. After a two-hour ride and more negotiating, they returned to the camp\u2014the back of the tuk-tuk packed with sewing machines and supplies, while scissors bounced at their feet.\n\u201cLittle people like me are able to fill one tiny gap, like handing out sewing machines or providing food where there isn\u2019t any,\u201d said Mr. Germain. \u201cGrowing up, when someone died, you brought over a casserole of food to their family, so that food was one less thing they needed to worry about.\n\u201cPeople at the camp are sitting around worrying constantly about their kids, their education, money, what their next steps will be. Being able to provide supplies to those 500 or so families, even though the number is small, it meant I could help them with one less thing to worry about for even a short period of time.\u201d\nEducating tomorrow\u2019s policy-makers\nOne evening, sitting on a hill overlooking the camp, Mr. Germain watched for hours as lines upon lines of kids returned from the surrounding wooded areas carrying bundles of sticks.\n\u201cThey would chop these sticks for firewood and sell them. But it was when they\u2019re out in the woods, away from the community\u2014that\u2019s where the most kidnappings or abductions happen. They just get plucked.\u201d\nMr. Germain and another volunteer decided to spend the next day with the kids, trailing them and helping collect sticks.\n\u201cI thought maybe I could protect them, even if for one day. We walked around for hours and by the time we were done, we were dead. But the kids do this every day, some as young as four years old.\u201d\nMr. Germain was recently asked by one of the Grade 4 teachers at ISB to speak to the students about his experiences, as the class is learning about human migration. His memory of collecting sticks will be one of the stories he will tell to resonate with the similarly aged students.\nProviding different perspectives and nuances is a priority, padding standard curriculum with discussions that foster critical thinking, curiosity, and empathy.\n\u201cI want to let them know what\u2019s going on outside their world,\u201d said Mr. Germain, who, with a mother, sister, aunt, and uncle as teachers, has the profession in his blood.\n\u201cIt\u2019s important to show them the influence of genetics and environment on your life. We talk about people being able to overcome the environment they\u2019re born into, but that\u2019s a difficult process. The UN says the average stay in a refugee camp is 14 years. That\u2019s generations. It\u2019s hard for people to pull themselves up from there.\u201d\nThrough his fundraisers and various initiatives helping refugees, Mr. Germain has had the opportunity to reconnect with past students, as well.\n\u201cIt\u2019s so great to see what they\u2019re up to,\u201d he said. \u201cThey send me updates, and it\u2019s just like, oh man, you\u2019ve got it. You made it\u2014you have the skillset, you\u2019re curious, you ask questions. It\u2019s great to see that.\n\u201cIf we look at the future policymakers and influencers, they\u2019re here. That happens now. It starts with primary and high school education.\u201d\nTo read more about Brian Germain\u2019s experiences, follow his blog: https://learninglyceum.org/.",

        "raw_content": "Have you spent time planning your estate or you are mostly preoccupied planning vacation itineraries? You can enjoy yourself now, and there is nothing wrong with that. Nevertheless, you should also think about how your family will be provided for when you are gone. While estate planning in Townsville might sound fancy, many folks realise its importance in their lives now.\nWhy planning your estate is necessary\nYou want your loved ones to be secure, and that is why you work hard every day. What will happen to your assets, and who will be providing for your family in your absence? If you are no longer here or when you become incapacitated, the well-being of your loved ones can be compromised. There is a need to prepare for any eventuality, such as what happens to your children should they be left to fend for themselves while still quite young. It is essential to think about these concerns now to avoid your children\u2019s inheritance falling into the hands of an irresponsible or untrustworthy adult beneficiary.\nDo not delay drafting a will\nA court of law will decide what happens to your assets and who takes care of your children if there is no will or trust left behind. You have the power to establish these as well as other provisions in your will. If you want to protect your loved ones from people who might take advantage of them, then add these conditions as well. Contrary to popular belief, anyone can draft a will; it is not exclusive to the wealthy in society. It can be a sensitive and challenging topic to breach in any family, but it must be something that you are willing to discuss and think about.\nREAD Medical Negligence: When Your Injuries Speak for Itself\nThink about the tax impact\nA good estate plan should lay out a clear and decisive plan for the distribution of a person\u2019s assets. An estate-planning attorney can help draft a will or trust that maximises the amount your beneficiaries can receive. This entails planning wisely and with foresight. The designated heirs should benefit from your hard work, and this is only possible when your estate plan has the least tax impact. Your heirs deserve the good life that you have intended for them.\nThe essential power of attorneys\nAlso, it is critical to have a durable power of attorney, which will allow a designated individual to make legal and financial decisions on your behalf. Should there come a time when you are unable to make these decisions, someone you trust must be able to make them for you. The document should be valid and allow the person assigned to represent you in signing contracts, applying for benefits, accessing accounts, and more.\nIn the end, estate planning is for everyone who wants to protect their family and avoid the unfortunate consequences of a lack of foresight. You can start thinking about drafting a will or trust, especially if you have property to leave behind. It helps to have a legal adviser when you do so.",

        "raw_content": "The Seamaster 2018 ITTF World Tour Grand Finals is nearly upon us and with the event kicking-off in just under two weeks\u2019 time on Thursday 13th December, we\u2019ve decided to take a closer look at the competitors set to do battle in Incheon, Korea Republic.\nWe begin our preview by focusing on the players seeded 16th to 11th in the Women\u2019s Singles draw.\nGrand Finals debut for Saki Shibata (Photo: Kate Ostapenko)\nSet to compete at the tournament for the first time Saki Shibata has been named as no.16 seed for the category. Shibata, 21, favours a fast-paced attacking approach to the sport and is one of Japan\u2019s bright up-and-coming stars, breaking into the World top 20 in July of this year.\nRoad to Incheon\nAppearing in main draw action on eight stops of the 2018 ITTF World Tour, Shibata beat current World no.1 Zhu Yuling on her way to a semi-finals finish in Shenzhen, China in June and also reached the penultimate round of the Women\u2019s Singles in Olomouc following a terrific campaign in the Czech city.\nAlong with her successful outings on this year\u2019s World Tour Shibata has been outstanding at ITTF Challenge Series events with four Women\u2019s Singles trophies to her name in 2018, more than any other player competing in the series.\n12th outing for Feng Tianwei (Photo: Ireneusz Kanabrodzki)\nConsidered for many years as the name of Singapore table tennis Feng Tianwei, no.15 seed, has plenty of experience at the highest level of the sport. Feng is a winner of three Olympic Games medals, 10 Commonwealth Games medals and helped Singapore to gold medal success at the 2010 World Team Championships.\nBeginning her year with a Round of 16 finish in the Qatari capital of Doha, Feng went on to reach the same stage at the World Tour events in Hong Kong, Shenzhen and Geelong but surely her standout moment came at the 2018 German Open in Bremen, progressing right up to the semi-finals.\nFeng will make an astounding 12th appearance at the Grand Finals when she takes to the table in Incheon and was crowned champion the last time the event was hosted on Korean soil in 2010!\nCan Sun Yingsha cause an upset in Incheon (Photo: R\u00e9my Gros)\nBlasting onto the scene in breathtaking fashion at the 2017 Japan Open Sun Yingsha quickly established herself as of China\u2019s finest young players, achieving a career best rank of seventh back in December 2017 \u2013 one year on the 18-year-old is set to make her Grand Finals debut.\nRunner-up at the opening World Tour tournament of the year in Budapest, Sun went on to secure a top eight position in both Doha and Bremen picking up commendable victories over Feng Tianwei and Mima Ito at the respective events. Sun also made appearances in Hong Kong, Shenzhen, Daejeon and Kitakyushu.\nLast year in her debut season of World Tour action Sun featured in 14 Women\u2019s Singles encounters, emerging victorious on 12 occasions!\nMiu Hirano seeded 13th in the Women\u2019s Singles draw (Photo: R\u00e9my Gros)\nFeaturing in the Women\u2019s Singles event for the third consecutive year, Japan\u2019s Miu Hirano heads to the 2018 World Tour Grand Finals as no.13 seed and could be in with an outside chance of glory. Hirano, 18, has already collected a number of the sport\u2019s biggest accolades, lifting the 2016 Women\u2019s World Cup, striking gold at the 2017 ITTF Asian Championships and played an important role in Japan\u2019s silver medal campaign at the Liebherr 2018 World Team Championships.\nTravelling to 10 of the 12 World Tour competitions throughout the course of the year, Hirano made quarter-finals appearances on five occasions [Doha, Kitakyushu, Geelong, Panagyurishte and Olomouc], finishing the year with 467 World Tour points to her name.\nDespite still being in her teenage years Hirano has put her name in the record books on a couple of occasions: in 2016 she became the youngest player to win the Women\u2019s World Cup at just 16 years of age and one year on she became the first athlete from her country to claim a Women\u2019s Singles medal on the World Championships stage since Toshiko Kowada in 1969!\nLate charge leads He Zhuojia to first Grand Finals appearance (Photo: R\u00e9my Gros)\nRanked outside the World top 200 until June few would have predicted to see He Zhuojia\u2019s name on the Grand Finals entry list at the start of the year, however, a late charge has seen the Chinese star climb into the World top 100 and, more importantly, the top 16 of the World Tour Women\u2019s Singles standings.\nReaching the semi-finals three times on the 2018 ITTF World Tour including at the recent event in the Austrian city of Linz, He has chalked up a number of outstanding victories over the course of 2018, beating the likes of Liu Shiwen, Kasumi Ishikawa and Mima Ito all of whom will be on duty in Incheon.\nNo player from outside of China has managed to overcome He so far this year. In fact her last defeat to a non-Chinese competitor in a Women\u2019s Singles contest came four years back when she lost out to Kasumi Ishikawa at the 2014 Japan Open!\nEver consistent, third year in a row at Grand Finals for Hitomi Sato (Photo: R\u00e9my Gros)\nRounding off the list of seeds 16-11 is Hitomi Sato.

        "raw_content": "A Pint of Lager\nThe Robins pub, Ashton.\nAway at home. 29/04/17.\nBristol city have had a rollercoaster season. This was their last away game of the season and it was against Brighton, where I have lived for the last three years. I didn't go to many Albion games, but this was a special occasion. Brighton unlike city were on good form this season. They have been close to promotion to the Premier league for the last few seasons, but have undeservedly missed out in the Play-off's. This year the chance presented itself, not only for Brighton to go to the premier league, but to finish top of the Championship, and it was all to be decided on this day. Meanwhile city battled the relegation zone due to an unhealthy amount of games lost around Christmas time. To beat Brighton meant we were safe of relegation. All of this in the balance, along with the fact that it would be my last game at the amex as a local resident. I bought a ticket. I went on my own. I met up with a mate from home who had travelled up with others. The sun was out all day. In terms of the football, apparently it looked pretty flat on TV. The Brighton fans are quite boring. But we sung for 90' minutes. It was a pretty perfect day out if i'm completely honest. We got a goal just before the first half ended. The second half was full of shouting and excitement but not much more went on other than that. A couple of missed chances on our part but thats about it. When the game finished my friends dad had a flight to Kiev, and I wanted to get to the pub to see the boys because there was a cue outside the pub because Anthony Joshua was due to fight Wladimir Klitschko that evening. I couldn't wait to get to the pub. Brighton fans in dismay, City fans relived. When leaving the ground people were selling scarves saying 'Champions! We are going up!' for half price. promotion party over. Red army.\nThe Amex, Brighton.",

        "title": "Puzzles, Perspectives, and Psychotherapy from a Specialist in Toronto \u2014 Jennifer Tiviluk",
        "raw_content": "Puzzles, Perspectives, and Psychotherapy\nThis Summer I was lucky enough to vacation at my parent\u2019s beautiful cottage on Georgian Bay. During this time, I spent some quality time with my mom and kids putting puzzles together. My ADHD brain sometimes works in strange ways. Doing these puzzles provided me with \u201cAHA\u201d moments and new perspectives to use in my Psychotherapy practice in Toronto. I learned something inspiring to help me work with my ADHD and neurotypical clients.\nWhen I did a bit of research into my experience with puzzles, it seems that there may be scientific reasons why I had this experience. Puzzles stimulate both the right and left hemispheres of the brain, thereby marrying our logical and analytical side with our creative \u201cbig picture\u201d intuitive side. Engaging in activities that use both sides of our brain help us to connect our right and left side of the brain as well as make connections between our individual brain cells. Further, exercising both sides of the brain helps our brain move from \u201cbeta state\u201d, wakeful mind to \u201calpha state\u201d, dreaming mind. Jigsaws help to induce a meditative-like state where connections can be made on deeper levels. Hence my \u201cAHA\u201d moment!!!!\nSo, by now, you are probably thinking, \u201cget to the point Jennifer, what did you learn?\u201d. Well, I guess I made some connections at a deeper level. What exactly is the connection? Well, when I tried to do my puzzle from one perspective looking at the picture face on, I often got stuck. I would try to find the pieces for the puzzle repeatedly, but I couldn\u2019t find any pieces. It felt like there were pieces missing and I couldn\u2019t complete the puzzle. I came to an end where I could not find any more pieces to fill in. But then something magical happened!!! I moved around the puzzle and started to look at it \u201cupside down\u201d and \u201csideways\u201d, suddenly, I was able to fill in many pieces of the puzzle at once. Why? Because instead of repeatedly looking at the puzzle from the same perspective, I stepped out of my standard way of looking at things. I looked at the problem upside down and sideways and found a new way of solving the puzzle from a different perspective that worked with my brain. I felt my brain light up \u2013 when I realized this.\nFrom this experience, I started to think about how I could apply this learning to help me in my practice to be the best psychotherapist I could be for my clients. Psychotherapists help clients develop new perspectives and help client\u2019s make new neural connections. When you get stuck in your life, you are often stuck because you are looking at things in the same way and trying to solve them using approaches that don\u2019t fit the situation. Sometimes getting the help of an experienced psychotherapist in Toronto can help you make new and deeper connections. Psychotherapy can help you to make a change in your life and get past being \u201cstuck\u201d in your old \u201cwiring\u201d.\nFor more information about ADHD help, counseling or any related area, contact me today.\nSource: https://www.learningsuccessblog.com/adhd-iceberg-infograph \u201cThe Healing Power of Jigsaw Puzzles\u201d: www:jigsawjungle.com",

Kulautuva served as a popular resort area for the residents of Kaunas due to having 1500 acres of a dense pine forest and being near Kaunas. In 1933, Kulautuva received the formal status of being a resort location (\u0093Kurort\u0094). The main means of transportation between Kulautuva and Kaunas was by magnificent boats (called in Hebrew at that time by the name of \u0093Kitriot\u0094) which sailed on the Nemunas. There was much traffic on the river, especially during the weekends. Hundreds of Jewish families from Kaunas and the surrounding areas used to come to Kulautuva each summer even before WWI. As the high holidays approached, Kulautuva would become empty and only its permanent residents (125 in 1923) would remain in the settlement.\nFrom the early 1930's, a permanent Jewish settlement emerged in Kulautuva. At that time it had 16 families. They made their living mainly by maintaining the resort area and by operating small auxiliary farms. The children studied in Kaunas or in Vilkija. In 1931, a dispute broke out in the small Jewish community of Kulautuva regarding the slaughtering rights in the settlement, namely, should slaughterers come from Kaunas or Zapyskis? A synagogue for the residents Kulautuva and its vacationers was inaugurated in 1935. According to official data at that time, 80% of the vacationers were Jews. An establishment by the name of \u0093Yeshurun\u0094, which helped Jewish children recover from illnesses, also functioned in Kulautuva during the vacation season. Each summer \u0093Yeshurun\u0094 hosted in Kulautuva 3 groups of 130 youth each. The many buildings, including \u0093Yeshurun's\u0094 synagogue, were built on a lot which was granted by the government.\nThe fate of the few Jews who remained in Kulautuva when Germany conquered Lithuania was the same as the fate of the Jews in the surrounding areas: some of them were murdered by Lithuanians who served among the ranks of the German occupying forces, and some of them were imprisoned in the Kaunas ghetto, which functioned until July, 1944.\nDi Yiddishe Shtime [The Jewish Voice] \u0096 (Kaunas), 8.7.1931, 10.7.1931, 29.7.1935, 510.7.1936.\nFolksblat [The People's Newspaper] \u0096 (Kaunas), 17.7.1936.",

Approx 2,500\nThe Jewish Presence Until 1918\nRawa Mazowiecka achieved town status in the second half of the 14th century. In 1462 it became the capital of the Rawa district. During the first half of the 16th century the Jews settled in this developing urban environment. In 1547 there was a blood libel against the Jews of Rawa Mazowiecka: they were accused of murdering a Christian child. The King tried to prevent this groundless accusation against the Jews and appointed a special committee to investigate the affair, and thereby to a certain extent calmed the feelings of the town's people against the Jews, but in spite of this the Jews left the town in the middle of the 16th century. During the Polish war with the Swedish in the 17th and 18th centuries Rawa's situation deteriorated and its population declined. In order to improve the town's economic condition, and as was customary in those days, the town's elders (Starostas) brought Jewish merchants and artisans to the town. The settlement of Jews in Rawa in the 18th century led to the town's boundaries being expanded by incorporating the village of Zamkowa Wola on the other side of the Rilka River. This village belonged to a portion of the King's estates, which was known as \u0093Rawa's Starostas\u0094 (under the authority of the Starosta who ruled Rawa). Around 1775 the village was designated an urban district, and as mentioned above, was joined to Rawa Mazowiecka. Its official title was \u0093Jews' Town\u0094, and as this indicates, it was inhabited by Jews. It comprised an elongated market square and one wide street, which was later named Jerusalem Street. In a 1789 census it was recorded that, where farmers used to live and on empty plots of land, 25 Jewish houses had been built. The merchants who inhabited them intended to establish cottage industries and to manufacture mirrors and metalware. The local Jews had the professional expertise required for this: among them there were \u0093machinists\u0094, tassel/fringe weavers, gold cloth weavers, starchers, goldsmiths, coppersmiths, tin-workers, stocking-makers, glaziers, comb-makers, wire-makers, needle-makers, pin-makers, and tanners of glove-leather.\nRawa Mazowiecka's citizens objected to the establishment by the Starosta of the \u0093Jews' Town\u0094 within the borders of Rawa Mazowiecka, and they took their complaint to the courts. But the Court rejected their complaint and, moreover, allowed the Jews to distil alcohol and sell it in various places. However, in deference to the wishes of the locals, the Jews were not permitted to sell it in the local inn. The Court also allowed the Jews to trade only between 8 and 12 in the morning. A later court ruling, in 1782, extended their trading hours until 3pm. A local civilian and military committee sent a letter to the president of the Sejm in Warsaw, asking that Jewish trading hours be again reduced. Their proposal was rejected, but local objections tended to restrict Jewish economic initiatives.\nIn the first half of the 19th century a marked increase in the Jewish population occurred and this was one of the main drivers of the town's development in this period. Groups of German and Polish weavers settled in the town, and a village named Tatari, in which a weaving industry developed, was incorporated into the town. In the 1860s Wolf Bergman, one of the Jews of Rawa, managed a small ribbon factory. There was a sudden deterioration in the Jews' condition as a result of the 1861 fire, in which the whole of \u0093Jew's Town\u0094 went up in flames; it never returned to its former state. The Jews, along with the rest of the population, suffered greatly during WWI; for nine months Rawa Mazowiecka was on the front line, and the town was totally destroyed.\nAn independent Jewish kehila (community) with its subsidiary institutions was established in Rawa, probably at the beginning of the 19th Century. During the second half of that century Rabbi Shlomo Margolis was the town's rabbi for a while; he later served in a number of other communities. Around 1875 the town's rabbi was Rabbi Abraham Shmuel Bar Joseph Lamm, author of Eshel Avraham. In 1899 Rabbi Yerachmiel Moshe Noach Rappoport was appointed as a halachic authority, and from 1908 he was the town's senior rabbi, until the time of the Shoah.\nDuring this period, the life of the Jewish community was subject to a number of upheavals, caused by a lack of finances and by disagreements between Rabbi Rappoport and various groups within the Jewish community. Rabbi Rappoport treated his opponents harshly (among these were the Zionist and trade organisations). The situation deteriorated in 1931, when wages were not paid for some time to the kehila employees. On this occasion the district authorities intervened and sentenced the members of the kehila board to six days in prison for neglecting their duties. In 1931-1932 a split developed between members of the local Agudat Israel party; members and supporters split into two factions, made up of followers and opponents of Rabbi Rappoport. The rabbi's opponents nominated a separate candidate list for the 1931 and 1936 elections to the kehila board. To fight them, Agudat Israel entered into a coalition with the Mizrachi and the Merchants Union in 1931.\nBetween the two wars the General Zionists, Mizrachi and right-wing Poalei Zion were all active in Rawa. In the elections for the 20th Zionist Congress, in 1937, four lists participated, and obtained the following votes: the League for a Laboring Eretz Israel \u0096 83, the General Zionists (Group A) \u0096 88, the General Zionists (Group B) \u0096 1, Mizrachi \u0096 24.\nEconomic organisations, such as the Merchants Union and the Artisans Association, were also active in Rawa.\nRawa was one of the towns in which the economic boycott imposed on Jews in the 1930s was particularly extensive. On 4th September, 1934, riots broke out against the Jews. The rioters attacked Jews and stole their property. The police arrested some of the leaders of the pogrom and the courts sentenced them to prison sentences ranging from two weeks to two months, but the court of appeal commuted their sentences. In the course of the following years, tensions increased, becoming especially severe on market and fair days. At these times the Endeks organised boycott supervision units, who were stationed in front of Jewish shops and stalls. Some of the young Jews were inclined to stand up to the aggressors; quite often they would go out into the streets in large groups and demonstrate by singing in public. The district authorities warned the community leadership that these actions might be seen as a provocation, and lead to more pogroms. To prevent this a general meeting was called in 1935, at which the community's leaders called on parents not to allow their children to engage in provocative behaviour on the streets. At one of the fairs in 1937 there was an attempt to provoke a pogrom but it was quashed by the police and by the Polish shoe-makers who resisted the attackers.\nDuring the first days of WWII, Rawa was heavily bombed, and its population was severely affected. The Germans entered the town on September 8th1939, at which time all the Jewish males were gathered in the market square, where the Germans indulged in a sadistic game. Among other things, Rabbi Rappoport and the Rabbi of Oiyazed, who was staying in Rawa at that time, and many of the Jewish dignitaries, mostly aged, were made to run several kilometres in the direction of Tomaszow. In a nearby wood the Germans threatened to kill them. Rabbi Rappoport asked for permission to return home to arrange for the burial of his son, who had been killed in the bombardment. The Nazis mocked him, abused him and dealt roughly with his daughter who had run after her father. She returned to the town to bury her brother. The two rabbis were held in the forest until late in the evening, flogged and only then released. On another occasion the Germans accused the Jews of killing a German soldier. They ordered all of the Jews to gather in the market square. The women were locked up in the church and abused by the Nazis. The men were ordered to lie face down and were threatened that whoever makes one move will be shot. They lay like that until evening, when they were made to stand against a wall; a number of them were shot. On that day the Germans searched the Jewish homes; some witnesses say that Polish homes were also searched. The total number of people killed on this day was estimated at 40, 23 of them Jews.\nOne day all the Jewish men were ordered to gather in the market square to have their beards shaved. Rabbi Rappoport, who was still in mourning for his son, was also brought. The rabbi's daughter asked the local Protestant priest to plead with the German authorities to let her father keep his beard. The rabbi was allowed to keep his beard but was sentenced to 100 lashes and the priest was threatened with severe punishment for speaking on behalf of the rabbi. After 30 lashes the aged rabbi fainted and was taken to hospital. What is noteworthy is that the Catholic priests, and the Protestant priest who spoke up for the rabbi, came to visit him. Later the Germans searched the rabbi's home and stole his property, including money and jewellery that Jews had given him for safekeeping. The rabbi fell ill as a result of these events and died shortly afterwards.\nDuring the first week of the occupation the German authorities arrested several of the town's Jewish dignitaries and accused them of holding meetings. It may be assumed that some of those arrested were killed. There were numerous round-ups for forced labour and many occurrences of Jews being beaten on the streets. The Jews also had to pay a fine. The Germans demanded that the Jews sign a document stating that they were Soviet subjects. Because of the harsh Nazi terror, in which the local Volksdeutsche population participated, several hundred Jews (mainly the wealthier ones) fled Rawa in the first months of the occupation most of them to Skierniewice.\nIn the beginning of 1941 the Germans set up a ghetto in what used to be the Jewish quarter (the synagogue and the neighbouring streets). The order to move was given without any warning: all the Jews living outside this area had to move in immediately and so they were only able to take with them a few belongings. The ghetto was surrounded by a fence but not sealed. Contact with the surrounding area was easy. Overcrowding was severe, both because of the small size of the ghetto and because of the Jews who were brought in from other places. During 1939-1940 many refugees, including people expelled from Biala Rawska, Skierniewice, Nowe Miasto on the Pilica River and other nearby towns, arrived in Rawa. The stream of refugees did not abate. In February and March 1941, during the period of mass refugee movements from the Warsaw district to the Radom district through Rawa (one of the first towns on this route), many Jews passed through and quite a few stayed. As a result, the Jewish population increased, even though several hundred had left in the early months of the war. In October 1940 there were 2,700 Jews in the town; in May 1941 there were 3,360 (of whom 798 were refugees), and in 1942 there were about 4,000. There was not enough room in the ghetto for such a large number of refugees. Some of them did not get permission to live in the ghetto, and these were ordered to live on the town's outskirts behind Skierniewice Street. Some of these people moved into the ghetto illegally. They were not included in the population registers, did not receive ration cards, and were at greater risk of being expelled or captured in the round-ups than were the legal inhabitants.\nThroughout the ghetto period, attacks and persecution by the Volksdeutsche and the German police were common, and round-ups for forced labour continued. On the eve of the Jewish New Year 1942 the German police rounded up a large number of people who were sent to the Zawada Labour Camp near Tomaszow Mazowiecki. For ten days they were forced to dig ditches; only half of them returned to the ghetto.\nInitially, there were few cases of typhus in the ghetto. It became an epidemic when the men, a few of them ill with typhus, returned from the Zawada Labour Camp. It is also possible that the illness broke out among the refugees and deportees, whose living and sanitary conditions were worse. Because of the shortage of medications and lack of medical care in the small ghetto hospital, the number of fatalities was high.\nUntil the beginning of 1942, the ghetto was open and it was easy to obtain food. Most of the artisans earned a living from semi-legal work for the local population, and from legal work for the German authorities. Every day teams of Jewish workers were brought under guard to work in the surrounding farms. They were beaten and badly treated but received food and on the way home were able to smuggle food into the ghetto. In addition, official food rations were given to the ghetto inhabitants, although these were meagre in quantity.\nAt the beginning of 1942 the situation of Rawa's Jews took a turn for the worse. One day the German police encircled the town's outskirts where the Jewish refugees lived, and brutally forced them into the ghetto. The ghetto was sealed and anyone leaving it without a permit was threatened with death. Nevertheless, food smuggling continued, but now Jews caught leaving the ghetto or involved in illegal commerce were endangering their lives, and some of them were killed. Worse yet, the official distribution of food to the Jews was stopped in February-March 1942.\nOn June 23rd 1942, the German police arrested 17 or 18 Jews, who were then thrown into the ghetto \u0093prison\u0094 (a room in the Judenrat cellar) and were later shot.\nThe liquidation of the ghetto started on 27th October 1942. The day before, 4,000 Jews were brought into the ghetto from Biala Rawska. They slept in the streets. That night, rumours about an expulsion of the Jews, intended for the following day, started to spread through the ghetto. Panic broke out. At dawn German and Polish police encircled the ghetto. According to some accounts, the Jews were gathered into the synagogue, being allowed to take with them only a small parcel. Over the following days all the ghetto's inhabitants, including the Biala Rawska deportees, were put onto trains and transported to Treblinka. According to another account, the Jews were gathered in the market square and then deported, some on carts and some on foot to Tomaszow Mazowiecki, from where they were transported to Treblinka. During this round-up, many Jews were killed in the market square. A small number managed to escape and find shelter in villages, but most of those who escaped were later found by the Germans with the help of Polish informers.\nA few dozen Jews who had lived in Rawa at the outbreak of war survived. Most of the survivors returned to the town (there were 33 Jews in Rawa in October 1945) but they soon left for good.",

        "raw_content": "2016 30-1 MLB countdown team previews: #4 Chicago White Sox\nA baseball team can have all the talent in the world. However, one of the things that cannot be defined is the chemistry of a clubhouse. Sometimes players can mask the fact that they do not like each other when they win, but as soon as things do not work out on the playing field issues like this come to the forefront. It is not like the problems did not exist before, but they are not thought about by the players and brought up by the media in times the team is winning. The 1977 New York Yankees were every bit as much of the Bronx Zoo as they were in 1978, the only difference is the Yankees had an easier regular season in 1977 then they did a year later. Because of this, issues that existed in the clubhouse were swept under the rug.\nThe Chicago White Sox had a lot of momentum coming into this season. The development of left handed pitchers Jose Quintana (9 wins, 10 losses, 3.36 earned run average, 177 strikeouts, just over 206 innings pitched) and Carlos Rodon (9-6, 3.75, 139, just over 139) allowed for the team to let free agent pitcher Jeff Samardzija walk (a five year contract worth $90 million with the San Francisco Giants). This allowed the White Sox to kind of rebuild their infield, as they made separate trades for All Star Todd Frazier (.255 batting average, 35 home runs, 85 runs batted in, .806 on base plus slugging) and third baseman turned second baseman Brett Lawrie (.260, 16, 60, .706) with the Cincinnati Reds and Oakland Athletics, respectively. The White Sox topped it off by adding shortstop Jimmy Rollins (.224, 13, 41, .683) and outfielder Austin Jackson (.267, 9, 48, .696) as free agents. The White Sox also signed free agent catcher Alex Avila (.191, 4, 13, .626) and starting pitcher Mat Latos (4-10, 4.95, 100, just over 116). A move that will impact the White Sox in a very positive way was the re-signing of right handed reliever Matt Albers (2-0, 1.37, 30 games, just over 37 IP). A healthy Albers will help provide an easier bridge to get to closer David Robertson (6-5, 3.41, 34 saves, 86 Ks, just over 63 IP).\nChemistry in the Chicago clubhouse may or may not have taken a hit with the sudden retirement of designated hitter Adam LaRoche (.207, 12, 44, .634). From a baseball sense, the White Sox rid themselves of a player who performed at below replacement level. A concern could be whether there is or is not a divide among White Sox players who had an issue with his son Drake being in the clubhouse and those that supported the former player. If there are no lingering effects, the Chicago White Sox dodged a huge bullet.\nThe White Sox starting pitching is led by star left hander Chris Sale (13-11, 3.41, 274, just under 209), who was the most vocal among the Chicago players in support of LaRoche. Rodon should become a no doubt number two pitcher this season with Quintana sliding right behind him. I think the White Sox do have some concern in the forth and fifth spots in the rotation, though veterans John Danks (7-15, 4.71, 30 starts, just less than 178 IP) and Latos should be able to provide innings if not quality ones. The White Sox may be wise to inquire about a back end starter; perhaps a team has a surplus that can help this team obtain a little bit of depth.\nRobertson's first season in Chicago was read with mixed reviews. Just his second season as a big league closer and his first in his new home, the right hander saw his strikeouts per nine innings pitch go down and his earned run average go up. On the bright side, his walk rate went down drastically, impacting his walks and hits per innings pitched and strikeout to walk rate in a positive way. Right hander Zach Putnam (3-3, 4.07, 64, less than 49) will team up with Albers to pitch the seventh and eighth innings. Left handers Zach Duke (3-6, 3.41, 66, just under 62) and Dan Jennings (2-3, 3.99, 53 games, just over 56 IP) give the White Sox respectable group for manager Robin Ventura to mix and match with. Of course, the left handed pitcher Dan Jennings has absolutely no relation to the former Marlins executive and field manager. Right handed pitcher Nate Jones, a one time White Sox closer before he was lost for almost two seasons due to Tommy John surgery, can be a wild card as the hard thrower should be ready to contribute this season. Jake Petricka (4-3, 3.63, 62 games, 52 IP) served last season as more of a right handed batter only guy.\nThe White Sox lineup gets a huge boast from Frazier, who joins star first baseman Jose Abreu (.290, 30, 101, 850) and budding star Adam Eaton (.287, 14, 56, .792, 98 runs scored, 175 hits, 9 triples, 18 stolen bases. The departure of LaRoche puts Melky Cabrera (.273, 12, 77, .709) in the best position to serve as the team's everyday designated hitter. Jackson can play center everyday, moving Eaton to left field. This will put some extra pressure on right fielder Avisail Garcia (.257, 13, 59, .675), who is going to have to produce a little bit more if he wants to remain a regular player in the major leagues. Expect the White Sox to be in the market for a forth outfield type to provide a little bit of outfield insurance.\nThe lineup I would go with if I was the White Sox is Jackson CF, Cabrera DH, Eaton LF, Abreu 1B, Frazier 3B, Lawrie 2B, Garcia RF, Avila C, Rollins SS. Shortstop Tyler Saladino (.225, 4, 20, 602), who was expected to take over a White Sox everyday player after incumbent SS Alexei Ramirez departed and before Rollins was signed, should still get a lot of playing time. He has had a solid spring, hitting over .300 and surprising many with four home runs. Veteran Dioner Navarro (.246, 5, 20, .682) is in as a free agent as well to serve as Avila's backup behind the plate. That could change based on offensive results. Outfielders JB Shuck and Jerry Sands get the first crack to earn a little more playing time. Both are best served as being fifth outfielder, with Sands suffering from a history of not remaining on major league rosters for a long time. Veterans Travis Isikawa, Hector Sanchez and Steve Lombardozzi are (and were) in camp looking to earn a spot on the bench.\nThe White Sox shortstop of the future seems to be 2013 first round draft pick Tim Anderson. Anderson hit over .300 with 49 stolen bases and 12 triples for Double- A Birmingham. There is doubt though, over whether Anderson has the tools to be a defensive shortstop at the major league level. This is something the White Sox will figure out this season. Another college pitcher taken in the mold of Rodon is former Vanderbilt right hander Carson Fulmer. Fulmer will get a lot of work this season with the thought of being big league ready next season or perhaps in 2016 as a September call up. 2012 first round pick Courtney Hawkins is still looking to develop some consistency in Double- A, but has shown a lot of improvement in the last year.\nThe way I value things that cannot be quantified into stats, the White Sox became a little bit of a concern to me. The attitude and chemistry in a clubhouse impacts the performance on the field way more than it gets credit for. Talent wise, the White Sox are as good as any team in the American League Central. That is saying a lot, because the AL Central has to most talent as a division in the entire sport. I thought they would turn the corner last season and they did as the season came to a close. I think the White Sox should be able to take the next step and become a legitimate contender for the American League Pennant this season. Las Vegas was down on them, putting their over/ under number at just 80.5. I think they will zoom past that and I see the Chicago White Sox finishing the season at 91-71, first place in the American League Central division. I am leaning towards feeling that any chemistry issues that may exist in the White Sox clubhouse are now resolved with the decision by LaRoche to retire.\n2015 30-1 MLB countdown previews: #9 Chicago White Sox\nThe Chicago White Sox went 73-89 in 2014. It could be viewed as an improvement, as the team was 63-99 a year earlier. In manager Robin Ventura's first season as the team's manager- in 2012- the White Sox went 85-77, giving Ventura the AL Manager of the Year in his first season behind the bench. The White Sox knew they needed to get better if they wanted to compete with the likes of the Royals, Tigers and even Indians in the AL Central.\nThe White Sox had a very successful off season, headlined by the trade for RHP Jeff Samardzjia (7-13, 2.99, 33 starts, 202 Ks in just under 220 IP) from the Oakland Athletics. They followed that up by adding free agent 1B Adam LaRoche (.259, 26, 92), OF Melky Cabrera (.301, 16, 73) and RHP David Robertson (4-5, 3.08, 39 saves, 96 Ks in just over 64 IP). Moreover, the White Sox also made it a priority to have depth throughout the roster. This started with the signing of LHP Zach Duke (5-1, 2.45, 74 Ks in just under 59 IP) and continued with the trade for LHP Dan Jennings (0-2, 1.34, 47 games with Marlins). For the right side, they brought in RHPs Matt Albers and Jesse Crain. The White Sox then signed free agent utility player Emilio Bonifacio (.259, 3, 24, 26 SB) and brought back infielder Gordon Beckham (.226, 9, 44). They signed C Geovany Soto (.250, 1, 11) and also brought in proven Cs George Kottaras and Rob Brantly.\nThe White Sox 2014 is summarized with two players who stood out and one player that had his curtain call. Paul Konerko's great Chicago White Sox career ended last season and he deserved the respect he was given. On the field, 1B Jose Abreu (.317, 36, 107) had the offensive impact many in baseball thought he would have and what made him such a sought after Cuban free agent. LHP Chris Sale (12-4, 2.17, 26 starts, 208 Ks in 174 IP) has continued to be as dominant a left handed starter as there is in all of MLB. Sale is currently dealing with a fractured foot which will keep him out of the mix opening day and maybe beyond. An honorable mention, which seems to be yearly, has to go to SS Alexei Ramirez (.273, 15, 75), who played in exactly 158 games for the 4th consecutive season.\nAfter Sale and Samardzjia, the White Sox have LHPs Jose Quintana (9-11, 3.32, 32 starts) and John Danks (11-11, 4.74, 32 starts). RHP Hector Noesi (8-11, 4,39, 27 starts) was a surprise last season and leads the battle for the 5th spot with 3rd overall pick in the 2014 draft Carlos Rodon. Brad Penny is also trying to make a comeback. If Rodon can prove he is ready this season, the rotation takes a completely different look, with Sale, Samardzjia, Quintana, Rodon and Danks (with the L-R-L-R-L).\nRHP Nate Jones was set to be the White Sox closer last season, following the trade of RHP Addison Reed. Jones was one of two closers who saw their 2014 season end on their first appearance of the season. Both he and Mets RHP Bobby Parnell suffered elbow injuries that required Tommy John surgery and because of that, neither are expected to impact their respective clubs in the first part of this season. What the White Sox did find is a series of RHPs who got the job done unexpectedly last season, led by Jake Petricka (1-6, 2.96, 14 saves, 67 games). The team also got a spark from RHPs Daniel Webb (6-5, 3.99, 57 games) and Zach Putnam (5-3, 1.98, 49 games). Putnam had pitched for his 4th team in the past 4 seasons. Former Dodgers RHP Javy Guerra (2-4, 2.91, 42 games) was on the comeback trail as well. Robertson, Duke and Jennings join Petricka, Guerra and two of the following... Putnam, Crain, Albers and Webb to make up a much improved White Sox bullpen.\nThe most intriguing thing to me is the White Sox OF, assuming everybody stays healthy. CF Adam Eaton (.300, 1, 35, 15 SB, 10 3B) is an even better defender. RF Avisail Garcia (.244, 7, 29) is ready to have a breakout season. After his September callup in 2012 for the Tigers got him his first postseason action- where he hit .455 with 5 hits and 3 RBI in the ALCS, helping the Tigers sweep the Yankees. He has not been able to stay healthy since and had his 2014 season cut short. C Tyler Flowers (.241, 15, 50) still has the upper hand, though he has more suitable MLB backups behind him and Conor Gillaspie (.287, 7, 57) returns to play 3B. Second base belongs to, at the moment, Micah Johnson, who has never played a game at the big league level. Though he doesn't have a lot of power, Johnson has hit almost .300 in his three professional seasons and is having a very good spring. Hope is 2013 1st round draft pick Tim Anderson (.303, 9, 40 in 84 minor league games) is ready for the big leagues this season. Bonifacio and Beckham will be in the mix as well.\nThe White Sox bench, in addition to Bonifacio and Beckham, will include OF Leury Garcia and 2B Carlos Sanchez, who is also in the mix with Johnson and Anderson with JB Shuck (.293 for the Angels in 2013) the likely 4th OF. The majority of the top White Sox prospects, Rodon, Anderson, Johnson and Sanchez have been mentioned to this point. 2012 1st round draft pick Courtney Hawkins hit 19 HR in advanced A last season but needs to cut down on his strikeouts. A couple players forgotten about were acquired in deals a couple years ago RHP Francelis Montas (5-0, 1.43, 15 minor league starts) and 3B Matt Davidson (.199, 20, 55 in AAA). Davidson has been forgotten about due the emergence of Gillaspie and Montas has emerged as the best pitching prospect of the Jake Peavy deal of 2013. Davidson needs to get his average up if he wants to get back into the discussion, but he does have 30 HR power.\nI like the aggressiveness the White Sox have shown this off season. It shows they care and they have added several other options in case there is a need at multiple positions and spots in the pitching staff. Combine that with the influx of young players, and I think this team is ready to compete with anybody in the AL Central. Though I have them winning the AL Central, it is with an 85-77 record- the same record I have the Kansas City Royals finishing off with. In a 1 game playoff, I have the White Sox beating the Royals behind the left arm of Sale. So, technically, I have the White Sox finishing at 86-77, winning the AL Central by a game over the 85-78 Royals. And for those scoring at home, the White Sox O/U was set at 81 1/2.\n30-1 MLB countdown previews: #21 White Sox\nThe Chicago White Sox were the best story last season that got no attention. The Nationals, Orioles and Athletics got all the press, and rightly so as all three teams made the postseason in 2012. The White Sox did not, but gave the eventual AL Pennant winning Tigers a run for their money before falling short. The White Sox finished the season 85-77 under new manager Robin Ventura. However, from August 30th on, the team lost 20 of their last 33 games. The team was 72-57 at the time, 25 games over .500. After some struggles, the team regained their spot from 8/30 at 81-66 before losing 11 of their last 15 to finish the season.\nVentura certainly did more than expected in his first year; not only as a MLB manager, but in the new generation of MLB managers who get jobs with absolutely no experience. The White Sox were not expected to contend but got help from pitchers Chris Sale (17-8, 3.05, 192 K in 192 IP) and former NL Cy Young winner Jake Peavy (11-12, 3.37, 194 K in 219 IP) as well as a bounce back season from DH Adam Dunn (.204, 41, 96, 105 BBs, 222 Ks). Phillip Humber threw a no hitter, and the White Sox found themselves as buyers as the trade deadline approached, acquiring 3B Kevin Youkilis, LHP Francisco Liriano, RHP Brett Myers, OF Dwayne Wise and INF Orlando Hudson. The Sox were one of the more active teams trying to add players for the push in all of baseball. Even more underrated was the performance of RF Alex Rios, who hit .304, 25, 91 after hitting .227, 13, 44 last season.\nThe White Sox locked up Sale (5 yrs, $32.5 million) and Peavy (2 yrs, $29 million) to anchor a pitching staff that includes Galvin Floyd (12-11, 4.29) and John Danks (3-4, 5.70 in 9 starts; 26-33 starts each of the prior five seasons). The fifth starter spot is expected to go to either Jose Quintana (6-6, 3.76 in 25 games, 22 starts) or original 2012 closer turned starter Hector Santiago (4-1, 3.33, 4 saves in 42 games, 4 starts).\nThe bullpen added the strong arm of former Mets farmhand Matt Lindstrom (1-0, 2.46 in 46 games for Baltimore and Diamondbacks last season). Lindstrom provides depth to the pen despite pitching for his 6th team in the last 5 years. Addison Reed returns as the closer despite his 4.75 ERA to go with his 29 saves. Matt Thornton (4-10, 3.46 in 74 games) and Jesse Crain (2-3, 2.44 in 51 games) are joined by Lindstrom to provide some good 7th and 8th inning options. I would expect the three of them plus Nate Jones (8-0, 2.39 in 65 games) to all challenge Reed for the closer job this season.\nThe offense lost a major cog when AJ Pierzynski (.277, 27, 77) left to join the Rangers. Youkilis (.235, 19, 60 for Boston and Chicago) left to play for the Yankees. Jeff Keppinger signed a deal to be the starting 3B after a .326, 9, 40 season for Tampa Bay in 2012. While Tyler Flowers takes over behind the plate after his .213, 7, 13 season in 52 games, every other regular will be returning this season. Paul Konerko (.298, 28, 75) is still their franchise player with Alexei Ramirez (.265, 9, 73) at SS and 24 year old Dayan Viciedo (.255, 25, 78) in LF. Alejandro De Aza (.282, 9, 50) led the team with 26 SB and Gordon Beckham (.234, 16, 60) has found an everyday position while still trying to find himself offensively. If line them up like this: De Aza CF, Keppinger 3B, Konerko 1B, Dunn DH, Rios RF, Ramirez SS, Viciedo LF, Flowers C, Beckham 2B. I'd keep an eye out for OF prospect Jared Mitchell and middle INF prospect Carlos Sanchez, as both could make an impact this season. Sanchez puts a little pressure on Beckham to produce early in the season as the White Sox may be waiting for him to bloom.\nI think the Sox are in a tough spot this season. In my opinion, Detroit, Kansas City and Cleveland all have improved, while Chicago lost offense behind the plate and have a questionable closer. I think they will do ok, as the Vegas over/ under of 80 1/2 is not that far off. Vegas picked them to have a losing season, and so do I. I see a 79-83 mark, forth place in the AL Central.",

        "raw_content": "Inter Schools Champion of Champions Sports in Region 10 held\nAfter weeks of unresolved issues between the Department of Education and the Upper Demerara branch of the Guyana Teacher\u2019s Union, the Inter School Sports has finally kicked off and Region 10 will participate in the National School Championships.\nAccording to the Regional Education Officer Ms. Marcia Paddy Andrews, the GTU had failed to submit the list for Nationals for Region 10 and she had to engage Allied Arts, GTU Central Branch, Ministry of Education and met with other stakeholders such as Milerock and all the other local coaches and they have indicated their willingness to have the sports run off.\n\u201cWe had a meeting and GTU was there and of course they tried to create a ruckus, but I did not entertain them again because at this point in time all I am catering for is to field a team for the Nationals because we would have already missed the first deadline.\u201d She said she spoke to the President of the Guyana Teachers Union and he agreed to extend the deadline to Friday.\nShe noted that teachers, clubs and public spirited citizens came on board to assist and the road and cycle races were completed last Thursday, the swimming on Friday and the field events were held Monday. She said the Inter Primary sports was held yesterday and Inter Secondary is today.\n\u201cEven though there was a mix up with the sports children were still training so that should not jeopardize their performance.\u201d\nHowever, the Regional Chairman Sharma Solomon was not in agreement, he said it has a psychological effect on the children, not only on their physical performance.\nThe Chairman asked why it took so long before he was brought up to date with the matter of almost $600,000 being owed to teachers for work done during 2013 sports.\nThe REO refuted the amount saying she is not aware of that. \u201cI know the way sports used to be run the Administrative part by the Department of Education and the organizing of the sports by the Guyana Teachers Union that was the system put in place by the former REO. I spoke to him to get some clarity and he said to me that what used to happen is that the GTU would run the sports, pay themselves, do whatever it is with the funds and then they saddle the Department with the responsibility of paying for the ground and transportation and all that. In our budget we ask for funds to run off the Nationals so they are responsible for running the sports from Inter House to Champion of Champions and so that is the arrangement. The Region doesn\u2019t pump funds into those activities. The gates are responsible for paying all the expenses.\u201d\nShe claimed after all the expenses were cleared off the remaining sum was demanded by the teachers to travel to Georgetown. \u201cEverybody demanding a four thousand dollars and eventually they came for the coins and Ms. Adams handed it over to them so at the end of the activity we had no funds left to pay anybody any money.\u201d\nShe also noted that in speaking with the President of the GTU he claimed that in no other Region teachers are paid to run off sports. Region Ten is the only Region teachers are demanding to be paid to run off sports.\nThe Education Officer said she told the teachers that if the gate is the problem and the money is the issue she has no problem, they can have the gates but they must bear the expenses that go with the gate and they are not in agreement.\n\u201cI would ask the Regional Executive Officer for this year that we put two accountants from the Regional Administration to man the funds at the gate, they would do the collections and all payments, one member from the GTU to be present at the gate along with a member of the Department of Education for transparency.\u201d\nTeachers working for the 2014 sports will be working voluntarily.

        "raw_content": "Born at KGH in 1989, 22 years later I returned for my first time to have a double mastectomy. I discovered a golf ball sized tumour in my right breast. It was a cancer that doesn\u2019t respond to chemo or radiation. I had two options. The first was a lumpectomy, with a chance of recurrence. The second was a mastectomy, with reconstruction.\nNot wanting to worry about my future, I chose to have a double mastectomy for preventative and cosmetic reasons\nThe surgery was a success, although it did require many follow-ups. The expanders that were placed under my skin were filled in stages to create room for my actual implants. During this time, I attended a wonderful support group led by Patrice Dunbar, the plastic surgeon clinic nurse. Patrice is an absolute gift, her positive attitude and knowledge allowed me to feel comfortable with what I was going through.\nThe journey from finding the lump to reconstruction took a year, a year that taught me to appreciate life.\nI am thankful for this experience. It has changed me; I now live my life finding the positive in everything.",

        "raw_content": "The Society was formed in October 1899, as a successor to a number of choral groups that had existed in the town for many years. Its beginnings were as a Choral and Orchestral Society, and it had enthusiastic support from all the great names in the town\u2019s carpet-making past, as well as from many local musicians.\nJ. Irving Glover was the Society\u2019s first conductor, and he remained so until his death on Christmas Day 1931. The first concert was given in Kidderminster Town Hall in February 1900, the main work being Sterndale Bennett\u2019sSir Edward Elgar \u201cThe May Queen\u201d \u2013 part of this work was performed at the Society\u2019s Centenary celebrations in 1999.Irving Glover\u2019s programmes included many of the great oratorios of the classical and romantic periods, including Mendelssohn\u2019s \u201cElijah\u201d and \u201cSt. Paul\u201d, Handel\u2019s \u201cMessiah\u201d and \u201cJudas Maccabeus\u201d, Elgar\u2019s \u201cDream of Gerontius\u201d and \u201cThe Music Makers\u201d, Brahms\u2019s \u201cGerman Requiem\u201d and Haydn\u2019s \u201cCreation\u201d. These stalwarts are still in the repertoire today, except for \u201cSt. Paul\u201d, who has only made one appearance in 105 years!\nThe Great War (1914-1918) was a quiet period for the Society \u2013 only two concerts were presented during that time. Sir Edward Elgar became the Society\u2019s President in 1927 \u2013 an appointment which, it was said by the chairman of the day, should make the Society \u201cthe envy of all the choral societies in the country\u201d.\nThe works performed at the concert of February 1932 paid tribute to Irving Glover, and the conductor was Harry N. Oakes, who was subsequently appointed the Society\u2019s conductor. He held the post until 1952.\nThe Society\u2019s concert in 1934 was overshadowed by the death of its President, Sir Edward Elgar, three weeks before. Representatives were subsequently present at the unveiling in Worcester Cathedral of a window commemorating one of the city\u2019s and county\u2019s most famous sons.\nThe Society\u2019s first performance of Vaughan Williams\u2019s \u201cA Sea Symphony\u201d, with which the various music critics were variously over- and underwhelmed, although the majority complimented the choir and orchestra on even attempting what all felt was a difficult work.\nThe years of the Second World War, unlike those of the First, saw an uninterrupted series of concerts by the Society, although \u2013 perhaps understandably \u2013 the programmed works had all been performed before.\nWith acknowledgements to C.H.

A nutritious diet over the life course can help reduce the risk of developing conditions such as dental cavities, high blood pressure, diabetes, obesity, heart disease, osteoporosis, and cancer (1).\nEating breakfast can promote proper nutrition. Children who eat breakfast have higher daily intakes of key vitamins/minerals and tend to make healthier food choices throughout the day (2). Eating a nutritious breakfast also is associated with improved mood, cognitive functioning, and school attendance (1, 2).\nChildren in low-income households are at higher risk of poor nutrition, which can have long-term, negative health consequences (1, 3, 4). For example, undernourishment can adversely affect children's cognitive development, and consumption of unhealthful foods (e.g., fast food and sugar-sweetened beverages) is linked to weight gain and obesity (1, 3, 4).\nFor more information on children's nutrition, see kidsdata.org\u2019s Research & Links section.\n1.

Sugary drink consumption also differed by age and race/ethnicity. For example, among youth ages 12-17, 58% reported drinking at least one sugar-sweetened beverage in the previous day, while parent reports for younger children were much lower, at 35% for ages 6-11, and 22% for ages 2-5. Among racial/ethnic groups with data, an estimated 66% of multiracial and 64% of Hispanic/Latino youth ages 12-17 consumed sugary beverages daily, compared to 55% for African American/black, 53% for white, and 43% for Asian youth.\nAccording to the same survey, more than one-third (35%) of children ages 2-11 ate five or more servings of fruits and vegetables (excluding juice and fried potatoes) daily, compared to about a quarter (26%) of youth ages 12-17. The survey also found that 43% of children and youth ages 2-17 ate fast food two or more times in the preceding week, similar to previous years. Among counties with data, estimates of children and youth consuming fast food at least twice weekly ranged from 7% (Marin) to 62% (San Benito) in 2015-2016.\nAccording to 2013-2015 estimates, 67% of California 7th graders and 62% of 9th and 11th graders had eaten breakfast in the past day. Across grade levels statewide, boys were more likely than girls to report having breakfast. By comparison, only 43% of girls and 42% of boys in non-traditional programs had eaten breakfast in the past day. In general, estimates of eating breakfast were lowest for students with low levels of school connectedness and those whose parents did not finish high school (52% and 55%, respectively), and increased as levels of school connectedness and parent education improved. In 2013-2015, fewer than half of gay, lesbian, and bisexual students in California ate breakfast in the past day, compared with more than 60% of students in other groups.\nDuring the same period, 28% of responses by elementary school staff in California indicated strong agreement that their school provided students with healthy food choices. Strong agreement was lowest among responses by high school staff (18%), followed by middle school and non-traditional school staff (22%).\nNutrition during childhood, from the prenatal stage on, influences lifelong health (1). The childhood years also are a critical time for establishing long-term dietary habits. Public policy, school practices, and community strategies can improve access to nutritious food and encourage healthy choices, increasing the likelihood of lifelong health (2, 3, 4). Children and youth need a balanced diet rich in fruits and vegetables, as well as adequate water (2). Health experts also recommend minimizing consumption of solid fats, sodium, and added sugars (e.g., sugary beverages and fast food), which are linked to negative health outcomes (2).\nSchools are well-positioned to educate children about nutrition and promote healthy habits. Poor diets and undernutrition have been shown to substantially affect student achievement, making nutrition a priority for school performance (2, 3, 5). Children in poverty are particularly vulnerable to poor nutrition (3, 4). Federal nutrition programs such as the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) and the School Breakfast Program offer vital support for low-income children and families, though many of these programs continue to be underutilized in California (3, 5, 6).\nOptions to improve nutrition for children include:\nPromoting policies and practices to ensure adequate nutrition for pregnant and breastfeeding women, infants, and toddlers, as nutrition during this phase plays a key role in children\u2019s neurodevelopment and long-term health; for example, preserving and strengthening public nutrition programs (e.g., WIC), and ensuring that health care providers are trained on nutrition issues and are able to refer families to appropriate support services (1, 3)\nSupporting, improving, and ensuring effective implementation of programs and policies to promote nutrition in child care and early education settings, such as the federal Child and Adult Care Food Program, which provides nutritious meals and snacks to children in day care (7, 8)\nMaximizing opportunities to increase participation in public nutrition programs, including SNAP (CalFresh in California), school breakfast, school lunch, afterschool nutrition, and summer food service; for example, encouraging schools to offer breakfast after the start of the school day and to provide free meals for all students, which can be fully reimbursed for high-poverty schools through service options such as the Community Eligibility Provision (3, 5, 6)\nIncreasing awareness among all school stakeholders\u2014leaders, teachers, students, families, community members, and others\u2014about the links between nutrition, weight, cognitive function, academic performance, and school finances; this includes incorporating nutrition education into health curricula for students (5, 9)\nPromoting cross-sector, comprehensive strategies to reduce consumption of sugary beverages and increase the availability of healthy, affordable food options for children and families, particularly in low-income areas and communities of color; for example, attracting retailers of nutritious food (e.g., grocery stores) to locate in under-served areas, or advocating for restaurants to remove sugary drinks from children\u2019s menus and to meet the National Restaurant Association\u2019s Kids LiveWell nutrition guidelines (4, 8, 10)\nContinuing efforts to increase responsible marketing of food and beverages to young people (11)\nFor more policy ideas and research on this topic, see the Research & Links section on kidsdata.org or visit California Food Policy Advocates and Food Research and Action Center.

        "raw_content": "Pixie Dust?\nI don\u2019t think it\u2019s pixie dust persay, but it is something special. It will be an amazing day when we discover the secrets of tissue regeneration.\nAnd, some basic info from HowStuffWorks.\nThanks for the story, Ted!\nAmazing Female Scientist\nI just read a profile of an amazing female scientist, named Susan Greenfield. She\u2019s a professor of pharmacology at Oxford University, and the director of the Royal Institution in London. She, being a woman and having reached such a place of distinction within academia, is a rarity in science.\nAccording to statistics from the Association for Women in Science, in 2001 women made up 20.6 percent of those people employed in tenured academic positions for more than 10 years. Career longevity for women in the sciences appears to be something that\u2019s lacking.\nA more recent report suggests that the reason for the attrition rate (52% of women in sciences leave with the greatest rate being approximately 10 years into the career path, which coincides with the average woman\u2019s thirties) may be due in part to hostile work environments that fail to take the female role as mother into account.\nA brief look at Susan Greenfield\u2019s life suggests that she continues to contend with the male dominated scientific environment, and may have made some compromises to her personal life in order to be so successful.\n\u201cIt\u2019s unfair. I publish three or four papers a year in peer-reviewed journals,\u201d she says. She fits it all in by \u201cnot doing what other people do: gardening, watching television, sleeping in late. I wake up between four and five. If it\u2019s a London day, I get the 6.30 train from central Oxford, where I live. I\u2019ll have a working breakfast here with my second in command, then a day of meetings or interviews. In the evening, I may chair an event or go to a reception.\u201d\nOn Oxford days she wears T-shirt and jeans, but is still in the lab by 7.30am, planning experiments, applying for grants, analysing and writing papers. She plays squash three times a week. With a trainer. \u201cHe pushes me to improve my skills.\u201d At weekends? \u201cI write, read, prepare talks.\u201d\nHer marriage to Oxford professor of physical chemistry Peter Atkins ended in 2005. Is all this activity a way to escape loneliness? \u201cYou can be lonely when you\u2019re with someone,\u201d she says quickly, \u201cas much as when you\u2019re by yourself.\u201d\nIt is somewhat of a chicken and egg question, however. Is it only driven personalities, male or female, who are able to succeed so outstandingly? Or, is it the environment that engenders the sink-or-swim behaviors; people learning, and thus believing that if they do not work 16 hour days they\u2019ll never get anywhere, and only those who do so being rewarded. It puts most women in a position of having to choose between family and career.\nUsually, family will win.\nYet, I\u2019m among a growing number of women who have put off starting a family in order to pursue my career. Is this a wise choice? I will certainly find out sometime down the road. It\u2019s certainly both a blessing and a hazard to be a woman in this century.\nA few weekends ago I went to the Maker Faire in San Mateo, CA. I wasn\u2019t sure what to expect, but having been to Burning Man several times I think I was hoping for more fire. Lots more fire. What I did see was surprising and entertaining, but alas I left before dark and missed the fire. There were robots, bartending robots, battlebots, rockets, diy projects galore, a camera obscura tent, steam punk beauty, power tool races, and much, much more.\nI went to the faire with a few friends (Colin, Kepi, and Marshall), and ran into many friends while there. It seemed like everyone I know had either brought something to the faire, or was there to see what everyone else had brought. And, I think everyone else who attended had the same idea. The place was packed. The parking lot was full by noon. It seems that the Maker Faire has hit upon a very successful model.\nInterestingly, Marshall and I were talking recently about how there aren\u2019t many festivals in the US that really make science fun and engaging to the public. Sure, there\u2019s the occasional festival for smart kids in which they compete in various contests of engineering, science, or intelligence. But, what about festivals that just make doing things based in science fun for everyone? From what I saw, the Maker Faire does just that, bringing together scientists, engineers, artists, actors, and diy-ers from all walks of life.\nMy favorite moment had to be when a young girl who couldn\u2019t have been more than 9 years old told me about the potential for carbon nanotubes in creating cable for a space elevator (all this while playing with the robot she had built and brought to the faire with her dad). Her dad informed me that she had recently completed a report on nanotubes for school. What school does she go to?!? Or, is just a matter of parental guidance? Either way, that young girl has a brilliant future ahead.\nAll around, I had a great time. Check out some of my pics from the day:",

        "raw_content": "WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President Donald Trump\u2019s attorney general nominee, William Barr, moved closer to a confirmation vote in the U.S. Senate on Thursday, winning approval from a key committee despite Democrats\u2019 concerns about how he might handle Special Counsel Robert Mueller\u2019s Russia investigation.\nBarr is expected to win confirmation in the Republican-controlled chamber as soon as next week, after the Senate Judiciary Committee voted to approve him by a party-line vote of 12 to 10.\nA corporate lawyer who previously served as attorney general under Republican President George H.W. Bush in the early 1990s, Barr has been praised by lawmakers from both parties as someone who is deeply familiar with the workings of the Justice Department and does not owe his career to Trump.\nIf he wins the job, Barr\u2019s independence could be put to the test when Mueller wraps up his investigation into the Trump campaign\u2019s possible ties to Russia during the 2016 election.\nThe Republican president has repeatedly criticized the investigation as a \u201cwitch hunt\u201d and denies any collusion with Moscow.\nBarr criticized the investigation last year in a memo to the Justice Department, but he told the committee in confirmation hearings three weeks ago that he would allow Mueller to conclude his work and said he would make as much of his findings public as possible.\nBut Barr has refused to promise that he will release the report in its entirety, citing Justice Department regulations that encourage prosecutors not to criticize people who they do not end up charging with criminal behavior.\nDemocrats on the committee said they were concerned that Barr\u2019s expansive views of presidential power, as outlined in his memo, would lead him to suppress parts of Mueller\u2019s report that address whether Trump tried to obstruct the investigation.\n\u201cI believe the memo is disqualifying,\u201d said Senator Dianne Feinstein, the committee\u2019s top Democrat.\nRepublicans said they were confident Barr would make as much of the report public as possible.\n\u201cWe need a steady hand at the Department of Justice, and I believe Mr. Barr provides that steady hand,\u201d said Republican Senator Lindsey Graham, the committee\u2019s chairman.\nFor the time being, Acting Attorney General Matt Whitaker will remain in charge of the department - and the Mueller investigation.\nWhitaker, who was appointed by Trump in November, said last week that the investigation \u201cis close to being completed.\u201d\nDemocrats on the U.S. House of Representatives\u2019 Judiciary Committee on Thursday prepared a subpoena to compel Whitaker to testify on Friday, prompting him to say he will not appear unless the subpoena threat is lifted.\nAdditional reporting by Richard Cowan; Editing by Doina Chiacu and Jonathan Oatis",

        "raw_content": "We\u2019re pretty passionate about making sure all Kiwi kids are prepared for the financial world ahead. That\u2019s why we have been working with Banqer for the last few years to enable classrooms to access the platform for free.\nAbout Banqer\nCo-founded by local entrepreneur Kendall Flutey, Banqer is an online tool that can be used in classrooms to create a complex and realistic virtual economy that students use on a day-to-day basis.\nWatch the video below to learn more about Banqer and how we're banking on the next generation.\nTeachers set up a currency and facilitate real-life situations over the course of the school year to enable students to learn about earning money, paying expenses, saving, debt, tax, KiwiSaver, insurance and more. The programme, suitable for Years 4 \u2013 8, is aligned with the New Zealand curriculum and designed by teachers for teachers and students.\nWe\u2019re banking on the next generation\nFinancial literacy is a huge issue in New Zealand. There is a generation of Kiwi school leavers telling us they feel they have missed out on exactly this sort of real-life financial learning. This is why we've partnered with Banqer: so we can get their financial capability tool into as many Kiwi schools as possible, free of charge to the school.\nWhat we love about it is that it\u2019s normalising the conversation about money and Banqer students get to make decisions about their financial futures in a safe, virtual environment. They see the impacts of these decisions, good or bad, and then make conclusions about what they should do with their money in the future.\nAs of 2018, Banqer has been in 2,100 classrooms \u2014 and in 2019 we\u2019re increasing that to 3,300 classrooms that will be able to use the tool at no cost. By partnering with Banqer, Kiwibank is ensuring that more Kiwi kids gain confidence and learn about money in an authentic and fun way.\nBanqer, like financial education, is for all Kiwi kids\nAt Kiwibank, we were blown away when we were first introduced to Banqer, and we came to the same conclusion that you\u2019ll hopefully share: this needs to be something that every Kiwi kid can enjoy. More than 60,880 Kiwi kids are currently engaging in robust financial education and we\u2019ve seen a great improvement in student\u2019s money behaviours from the start of the programme to once completed. These attitudes and positive money behaviours will benefit students for the rest of their lives.\nBanqer and te reo M\u0101ori\nIn 2018, we\u2019ve been working to translate Banqer into te reo M\u0101ori. It\u2019s early days so we\u2019re just piloting it with five kura kaupapa across Aotearoa before opening it up to all New Zealanders to use, but we think this is a really important step to ensure that financial literacy is inclusive and tailored for our communities.\nGet your school using Banqer today\nWhether you're a teacher or a parent, it\u2019s easy to sign up to Banqer. You can refer a teacher that you know and Banqer will follow up directly to explain exactly how to start using Banqer in their classroom.\nLearn more at banqer.co",

        "raw_content": "In-house Q&A: GE's Bruce McAlister on arrogance, accidental emails and not-so-dedicated partners\nGE Global Growth Organization GC Bruce McAlister recounts memorable moments from his in-house career\nBruce McAlister, general counsel of GE\u2019s Global Growth Organization was a speaker at last year\u2019s Corporate Counsel Forum Middle East. This year\u2019s forum, which is chaired by Flash Entertainment GC Andrew Cooke, will take place on 11 May at The Ritz-Carlton, Jumeirah Beach Residence in Dubai.\nClick here for details on how to register for the event. For sponsorship enquiries, email Natalie Hill at nhill@alm.com or call her on +44 (0)20 3868 7531\nWhy did you become a lawyer? I grew up being a plane spotter and was in my element sitting at the end of any runway (no jokes about anoraks), but after having spent two hours in a Beagle Pup (a really, really small single-engine aircraft) I realised I wasn\u2019t destined to be a pilot, and ran head first into law.\nWho has been the biggest influence on your career? Without doubt, Stephen Henderson, who was the general counsel for commercial engines in GE Aviation, now retired. Stephen hired me into GE and taught me everything about how to be an in-house counsel who delivered on their transactions. But more importantly, he showed me how to be that business partner who went beyond law to look at the business priority; how to take control of all the constituent parts of a transaction and execute the strategy.\nWhat\u2019s your proudest professional moment? I spent a week in Dar El Salam, Tanzania, training their university\u2019s final year law students with my good friends at GE and DLA Piper. The students attended lectures all day, from 8am-5pm, which showed an incredible appreciation and thirst for knowledge. It was humbling to be a part of their learning journey.\n\u2026and worst day on the job? Days prior to the closing of an acquisition, and following a \u2018robust dialogue\u2019 with tax advisers acting for the other side, I sent a rather disparaging email of the senior partner to some colleagues, only to realise that after sending the email, I had included the tax partner on it!\nAside from in your own company, which in-house lawyer do you most admire and why? Iain Simm, general counsel of DS Smith, who was previously at BBA Aviation. I negotiated against him in a complex disposition of a business located in northeast England. There was a barrage of issues in a highly competitive bidding process. Iain was pragmatic, always working to what was critical to his business as opposed to scoring points. His attitude enabled us to complete the disposition in record time. I\u2019m a firm believer that you can always learn from your counterparts on the other side of the table.\nWhat do you look for in lawyers in your in-house team? I am passionate about having a local legal team being co-located with our business leaders in all of the countries that we operate. Their regional qualifications and experience, together with local language ability, bring an element of speed \u2013 they are able to assess risks much quicker than a lawyer situated in a headquarters.\nWhat do you look for in an external adviser? I look for an external adviser who is comfortable being able to operate in the grey. Nothing that hits my desk is either black or white. An external adviser who is able to help me navigate and quantify the risk, and take co-ownership of the issue to find the solution is a great advantage.\nHow is your panel set up? GE has a formal panel that operates predominantly in North America and Europe. The panel is reviewed regularly to ensure that we have right-sized the skills and capabilities of our outside legal providers in the most cost-effective manner. In emerging markets, where the legal environment is ever changing, we would initially go in with the creation of a best friends list as a pre-cursor to a formal panel. This enables us to stress test the local firms\u2019 abilities, and at the same time create contacts in these markets.\nWhat\u2019s your strongest characteristic\u2026 and worst trait? I try to build trust and loyalty in all my business relations and transactions. I firmly believe that this ultimately expedites any transaction. As a worst trait, I tend to overanalyse issues and try to implement alternative strategies, instead of waiting for the current plan to evolve.\nWhat advice would you give to a private practice lawyer starting his or her first in-house role? I was asked to join GE from private practice and had done very little research into the role of in-house counsel. Today, I spend quite bit of time stressing to any private practice lawyers interviewing with me that they need to do their homework by finding out where the legal team is positioned within the company, their role and how strategically the legal function is viewed. You want to continue doing the sophisticated, complex transactions. You don\u2019t want to be viewed as a back-office function.\nWhat\u2019s the best part of your job? Seeing lawyers that I have brought into the organisation become true business partners, who are then promoted to executive level in the organisation, is very satisfying. I am also passionate about the Diverse Legal Fellows Programme that I implemented after coming to the Middle East in 2014. By investing in young professionals, who have exceptional qualifications and have grown up in Saudi, UAE and other parts of the region, we can ensure that we are making our profession sustainable in volatile and uncertain markets.\nWhat most annoys you about the legal profession? The legal profession is still very hierarchical, which drives arrogance among senior partners and general counsel. There is not enough entrepreneurial creativity among senior lawyers, who are facing the new millennial workforce in an acutely digitised age.\nWhat\u2019s the most unusual/shocking comment you\u2019ve ever had from a legal adviser? Working with a top tier global law firm on a transaction in the Middle East, I was astonished to be told by the partner on the transaction that he was going on holiday for two weeks, leaving his junior associate to close the transaction. I thought it best that we part company and had another firm acting for us at the negotiating table the next morning.\nWhat\u2019s your favourite item of clothing? My Fitbit has transformed my day within the office. It prods me on an hourly basis to move around. It just shows how desk-bound we are as a profession, although I do get looks from my colleagues as I\u2019m pacing up and down the office floor.\nWhat are your desert island discs? I subscribe to Spotify for my children, and end up listening to whatever is on my son\u2019s favourite list. Funnily enough, anything I choose seems to get bumped off our family playlist.\nAnd your favourite boxset? I don\u2019t watch much TV at home, but I tend to binge-watch the latest series when I\u2019m flying long haul, which is often. I have just finished watching Designated Survivor, which I would highly recommend. The main character has suffered more catastrophes in his first 100 days than any current leader, believe it or not!\nClick here for more information on the Corporate Counsel Forum Middle East",

        "raw_content": "The Uniform Bar Exam is portable to 23 states.\nJames Jolly | Tuesday, May 24, 2016\nCHARLESTON, W. Va. \u2013 The Supreme Court of Appeals of West Virginia has adopted the Uniform Bar Examination (UBE) with an effective date in July 2017.\nSubject to forthcoming amendments to the Rules for Admission to the Practice of Law, which will be released for public comment, the Supreme Court adopted the recommendation of the West Virginia Board of Law Examiners that West Virginia adopt the uniform exam.\nLetters of support from the West Virginia State Bar Board of Governors, as well as from the Dean of the West Virginia University College of Law were received and considered by the Court in its adoption of the UBE. West Virginia becomes the 23rd state to adopt the UBE.\nThe Court agreed with the Board that the UBE be adopted under the following general terms in West Virginia:\nThe West Virginia Board of Law Examiners will accept transferred UBE scores beginning July 1, 2017 .\nTransferred UBE scores will be eligible for admission in West Virginia for no more than thirty-six months.\nApplicants transferring UBE scores will be subject to the same educational requirements and character and fitness investigation as all other bar applicants, and will be required to prove that they have achieved a qualifying score on the Multistate Professional Responsibility Examination (MPRE).\nErica Moeser, President and CEO of the National Conference of Bar Examiners (NCBE), commended the Supreme Court\u2019s decision. \u201cWe welcome West Virginia to the family of jurisdictions that have adopted the UBE. I expect the UBE to be a good fit since West Virginia already uses the same test components in its bar exam,\u201d she said.\nWest Virginia\u2019s adoption of the UBE does not significantly alter the substance of the state\u2019s bar examination. For years, the West Virginia Bar Examination has been composed of the Multistate Performance Test (MPT), the Multistate Essay Examination (MEE), and the Multistate Bar Examination (MBE), the same testing components which comprise the UBE.\nMadeleine Nibert, the Supreme Court\u2019s Bar Admissions Administrator, noted that \u201cWest Virginia\u2019s adoption of the UBE will provide greater flexibility to applicants, who may be able to avoid sitting for essentially the same examination in multiple states.\u201d\nApplicants who take the UBE earn a portable score that can be used to apply for admission in other UBE states. Likewise, applicants with an acceptable score on the UBE from another state may apply for admission in West Virginia.\nAdditional information about the UBE may be found on the NCBE\u2019s website (ncbex.org).\nBldg. 1, Room E-316\n(304) 340-2305 Jennifer Bundy\n(304) 340-2306 April Harless\n(304) 558-4219 / TTY",

        "raw_content": "Trees are vital to the health of people, the planet, and your landscape. They\u2019re also a vital feature of your Poughkeepsie, NY, landscape\u2014they clean the air you breathe, create shade, block harmful UV rays, and beautify your home and yard. That\u2019s why you need to make sure your trees are healthy. Enlisting the services of a professional arborist to treat and prevent tree disease is the best way to make sure that your trees are lush and will last a long time.\nAn arborist\u2019s first task is a detailed inspection of the trees in your yard. Their overall health will be assessed. If disease is present, or if early warning signs or risks are identified, a particular course of treatment or preventative measures will be determined.\nIt is essential that trees with disease, certain types of harmful fungi, or pest infestation be identified early and treated as soon as possible. If you are unsure about the health of your trees, it is wise to seek a basic inspection by an arborist who can inventory any needs your trees have. An arborist will also be able to share with you the signs of disease, based on the species of trees and their environment.\nInfectious and Noninfectious Tree Disease\nAn infectious tree disease is categorized by the presence of a disease-causing microorganism. Infectious tree diseases include bacteria, viruses, and fungi. A noninfectious tree disease refers to environmental stressors that make trees more prone to the development of disease. These environmental stressors includes pollutants, temperature extremes, nutrient deficiencies, or varying degrees of moisture in the air.\nIt is difficult to tell on your own if a tree is afflicted with a noninfectious or infectious disease. Both infectious and noninfectious tree diseases exhibit symptoms including thinning canopy, trunk damage, discolored or spotty leaves, dead wood, and decay. If any of these symptoms are present in your trees, call your arborist to get an accurate diagnosis and course of treatment.\nBlight Treatment\nYour arborist will determine what particular sprays or injections are necessary to return your trees to optimum health. It is difficult and time consuming to save a tree once the disease has begun to spread. An arborist will not only treat your trees if they are symptomatic but will also suggest how best to properly water, provide nutrition, and prune your trees to prevent future disease from occurring.\nTree blights, typically caused by bacteria or fungus, can be very detrimental to the health of a tree. If untreated, blight can cause the need for tree removal. There are many varieties of blight, and most trees can be affected by one variety of blight or another. Whether diplodia blight, which affects pine trees and causes stunted growth and brown needles, or anthracnose blight, which affects hardwood trees and causes dead areas or spots on the leaves, your arborist will know which trees need to be treated, removed, given the benefit of preventive measures, or pruned.\nRelated: Remove Your Trees Safely and Efficiently with Professional Tree Service in Wappingers Falls, NY\nTagged: Tree Service, Tree Diseases, Tree Care, arborist",

Among the most common causes of blepharitis are poor eyelid hygiene; excessive oil produced by the glands in the eyelid; a bacterial infection (often staphylococcal); or an allergic reaction.\nSeborrheic blepharitis is often associated with dandruff of the scalp or skin conditions like acne. It can appear as greasy flakes or scales around the base of the eyelashes and a mild redness of the eyelid. It may also result in a roughness of the normally smooth tissue that lines the inside of the eyelid.\nUlcerative blepharitis is less common, but more serious. It is characterized by matted, hard crusts around the eyelashes, which when removed, leave small sores that ooze or bleed. There may also be a loss of eyelashes, distortion of the front edges of the eyelids and chronic tearing. In severe cases, the cornea, the transparent front covering of the eyeball, may also become inflamed.\nIn many cases, good eyelid hygiene and a regular cleaning routine may control blepharitis. This includes frequent scalp and face washing; warm soaks of the eyelids; and eyelid scrubs. In cases where bacterial infection is a cause, eyelid hygiene may be combined with various antibiotics and other medications. Eyelid hygiene is especially important upon awakening because debris can build up during sleep.",

        "raw_content": "Ask a Librarian Assistant Casey has curated a Shapiro Lobby book display for Black History Month that features non-fiction books by black authors, in honor of past and current leaders, events, and movements.\nDefining Moments in Black History: Reading Between the Lies by comedian and activist Dick Gregory, who died shortly before the book's publication, is the recipient of the NAACP 2017 Image Award for Outstanding Literary Work \u2013 Non-Fiction. Gregory looks back at 100 key events from the complicated history of black America. In a series of essays \"he moves from African ancestry and surviving the Middle Passage to the creation of the Jheri Curl, the enjoyment of bacon and everything pig, the headline-making shootings of black men, and the Black Lives Matter movement.\" (from the publisher website)\nBlinded by the Whites: Why Race Still Matters in 21st-Century America by David H. Ikard. From the book cover: The scholar and author posits that \"the election of Barack Obama gave political currency to the (white) idea that Americans now live in a post-racial society. But the persistence of racial profiling, economic inequality between blacks and whites, disproportionate numbers of black prisoners, and disparities in health and access to healthcare suggest there is more to the story.\" Ikard is Professor of African American and Diaspora Studies at Vanderbilt University.\nNo Ashes in the Fire: Coming of Age Black & Free in America by Darnell L. Moore is a New York Times Notable Book of the Year for 2018. In this memoir, Moore, a journalist and leading Black Lives Matter activist recalls growing up in Camden, NJ, bullied for being gay, and how he became a leading organizer with Black Lives Matter.\nBooks by and about African American women are also included in the display.\nBlack Girls Rock!: Owning Our Magic, Rocking Our Truth edited by Beverly Bond is a collection of essays by performers and artists including Misty Copeland and Beyonc\u00e9, athletes including Venus Williams, activists such as Patrisse Cullors, politicians including Maxine Waters and many more women from across the spectrum of professions and life experiences.\nThere are also books by and about individual women including Gabrielle Union's memoir We're Going to Need More Wine: Stories That Are Funny, Complicated, and True (Nominated for the NAACP Image Award for Outstanding Literary Work and Named a Best Book of the Year by The Root, this advocate for sexual assault victims discusses power, color, gender, feminism, and fame); My Life, My Love, My Legacy by Coretta Scott King, 2017 NPR Book of the Year (The life story of Coretta Scott King\u2014wife of Martin Luther King Jr., founder of the Martin Luther King Jr. Center for Nonviolent Social Change (The King Center), and twentieth-century American civil and human rights activist); and though you probably won't find it on the shelves, since it is so popular right now, you can use Get This to get in the queue to read Michelle Obama's autobiography Becoming or listen to the audiobook version.\nThe display also includes books on African American life, experiences, and contributions to various cities.\nThe Black Chicago Renaissance edited by Darlene Clark Hine and John McCluskey Jr. \"Beginning in the 1930s, Black Chicago experienced a cultural renaissance that lasted into the 1950s and rivaled the cultural outpouring in the Harlem Renaissance of the 1920s. The contributors to this volume analyze this prolific period of African American creativity in music, performance art, social science scholarship, and visual and literary artistic expression.\" (from the summary in the catalog record)\nBlack Los Angeles: American Dreams and Racial Realities edited by Darnell Hunt and Ana-Christina Ram\u00f3n is the culmination of a groundbreaking research project from the Ralph J. Bunche Center for African American Studies at UCLA that presents an in-depth analysis of the historical and contemporary contours of black life in Los Angeles. (from the publisher's website)\nBlack Rage in New Orleans: Police Brutality and African American Activism from World War II to Hurricane Katrina by Leonard N. Moore. In this book Moore, the George Littlefield Professor of American History at the University of Texas at Austin, \"traces the shocking history of police corruption in the Crescent City from World War II to Hurricane Katrina and the concurrent rise of a large and energized black opposition to it. In New Orleans, crime, drug abuse, and murder were commonplace, and an underpaid, inadequately staffed, and poorly trained police force frequently resorted to brutality against African Americans. Endemic corruption among police officers increased as the city's crime rate soared, generating anger and frustration among New Orleans's black community.\" (from publisher webpage)\nFor the complete list of books on display February 2019 in the Shapiro Lobby, click here.",

        "raw_content": "Canon PowerShot ELPH 360 Review\nThe Canon PowerShot ELPH 360 is available in purple, silver, or black camera bodies. Canon\nCompare Prices from Amazon\nWhen you're shopping for a digital camera in the $200 price range, you know that you're going to have to settle for some average or even below average features. These basic point and shoot cameras simply don't have top-shelf shooting options or image quality. And if you're hoping my Canon PowerShot ELPH 360 review shows a model that is able to completely overcome these common limitations, you're going to be disappointed.\nHowever, that doesn't mean the PowerShot ELPH 360 is a bad camera, far from it. The ELPH 360 may not offer the greatest feature set, but it's a camera that will outperform most of the other models at its price point. It's a camera that has a lot of good features, even if it doesn't really have one great feature that will stand out from the crowd. The PowerShot 360 is a versatile camera that will work nicely in a variety of situations while offering a very reasonable price point.\nIf you already own the ELPH 350 from the previous year, you probably aren't going to have much desire to \"upgrade\" to the ELPH 360. Canon didn't give the PowerShot ELPH 360 many differences from the previous version. In fact, if you were looking at the two cameras side by side, with the brand names hidden, you wouldn't be able to tell the difference.\nLCD: 3.0-inch, 461,000 pixels\nMaximum image size: 5184 x 3888 pixels\nWeight: 4.59 ounces (without battery and memory card)\nImage sensor: 1/2.3-inch CMOS\nMovie mode: Full HD 1080p\nCamera has faster operational performance than similarly priced models\nImage quality surpasses other cameras in this price range\nSmall camera that's easy to fit in a pocket\n12X optical zoom lens is a nice feature in a thin camera\nLow light image quality suffers with ISO setting limit of 3200\nSmall, embedded flash doesn't provide great image quality\nToggle switch used to select some shooting modes is an odd design function\nBattery life is below average\nAt 20.2 megapixels of resolution, the Canon PowerShot ELPH HS 360 outperforms most cameras at its price point. Unfortunately, the ELPH 360 doesn't have a larger image sensor (in physical size) than most low priced cameras, which means that its ability to create high-quality photographs that can match more expensive models is limited. This Canon point and shoot camera features a 1/2.3-inch image sensor, which is the smallest image sensor you'll find in today's digital cameras.\nAlthough the ELPH 360's image quality is pretty good when you're shooting in outdoor conditions where the sunlight provides the light for the scene, if you're forced to shoot in low light situations indoors, you're going to notice a drop in the quality of your photographs. The PowerShot 360 doesn't allow for an ISO setting higher than 3200, which means that you're going to have to end up using the flash quite a bit indoors. Unfortunately, because Canon gave the ELPH 360 such a small embedded flash, it doesn't provide a lot of light to the scene, resulting in hit and miss image quality.\nSurprisingly for a digital camera at a low price point, the PowerShot ELPH 360 actually works pretty fast when the lighting is good. You won't suffer from significant shutter lag issues with this camera when shooting in adequate lighting conditions, which means you can capture those photos of fast moving pets and children without having to worry about them moving out of the frame before the camera can capture the image. Shot to shot delays are minimal too unless you're using the flash. This camera has extremely high-performance levels versus other models at a similar price point. The ELPH 360's performance slows considerably when using the flash, though.\nAs is common with thin cameras, the Canon ELPH 360 is extremely easy to use. It has a minimal number of buttons, which means you won't have to worry about controlling the camera manually. Canon has designed this model as a fully automatic, point and shoot camera.\nYou will have access to a number of fun special effect features with the PowerShot 360. You do have to use a combination of moving a toggle switch and changing on-screen menus to make use of the special effect features, which can be a little confusing at first.\nAt 0.9 inches in thickness, the PowerShot ELPH 360 will fit easily in a pocket or purse, making it a good complement to a more expensive DSLR that is difficult to carry without a camera bag. You can take this camera with you in locations where a large camera bag simply isn't practical.\nFor a thin camera, having a 12X optical zoom lens in the ELPH 360 is a very nice feature. It wasn't too many years ago that having a 10X or 15X optical zoom in a large camera was common, and thin cameras were limited to a 3X or 5X zoom. The PowerShot 360's 12X zoom gives this camera some nice versatility, allowing it to have success in multiple shooting situations.\nThe Canon ELPH 360's LCD screen is sharp and bright, again ranking it slightly ahead of other $200 cameras. However, it is not a touchscreen display, which can greatly simplify the operation of a camera for inexperienced photographers who may be more familiar with operating a smartphone.\nA Review of the Canon PowerShot ELPH 190\nCanon PowerShot G3 X Camera Review\nA Review of the Canon PowerShot SX720 Camera\nReview of the Canon PowerShot A2200 Camera\nThe 42x Optical Zoom Sets the Canon SX420 Camera Apart\nLearn About the Canon PowerShot G7 X\nWhich Camera Should You Buy?\nThe 6 Best Largest LCD Display Cameras of 2019\nA Review of the Canon M10 Mirrorless Camera\nBest 4-Star Cameras",

        "raw_content": "Notable philanthropist gives Sculthorpe\u2019s home a musical future\nby Maxim Boon on May 22, 2015\nBusinessman and ardent supporter of the arts Peter Weiss will create new venue at composer\u2019s former studio.\nNotable business man and arts philanthropist Peter Weiss has bought the former home of the late composer Peter Sculthorpe. Weiss was so determined to purchase the home that he entered into a fierce bidding battle for the property, which eventually sold for $3.75 million, last weekend \u2013 $1 million more than the reserve price.\nPeter Sculthorpe, one of Australia\u2019s most revered musicians and educators, ranked top of Limelight\u2019s recent poll of Australia\u2019s most important composer, first moved into the home in 1976. He passed away aged 85 in August 2014.\nThanks to Mr Weiss, who has been a generous donor to multiple musical institutions including the Sydney Symphony, ACO and AWO for over 25 years, the three-bedroom cottage with studio, on Holdsworth Avenue in Woollahra will continue to be a home for music. The studio will become a venue for masterclasses and small intimate performances, and a rehearsal space for students. Mr Weiss may live in the main house with his wife Doris.\nIn addition to the new studio venue, Sculthorpe\u2019s legacy also lives on in his bequest to establish a chair in Australian music at Sydney University.\nAndrew Ford\u2019s The Memory of Music: Extract\nThe composer and broadcaster reflects on Australian music in 1983 and his relationship with Peter Sculthorpe.\nACO receives its biggest ever gift\nPeter Weiss donates a rare 1729 Guarneri cello valued at $1.8 million to the Australian Chamber Orchestra.\nPeggy Polias named as inaugural Sculthorpe Fellow\nThe NSW-based composer with receive the $30,000 award established to honour the late composer\u2019s legacy.\nClassical Music, Film, Jazz, World\nTamara-Anna Cislowska\u2019s Sculthorpe wins the ARIA\nPianist\u2019s win is one of the few awards to make any sense in a hopeless muddle of misjudged categorisations.\nSculthorpe\u2019s last \u2018Postcards\u2019 to get a hearing in London\nEx-pats Kelly Lovelady and Ruthless Jabiru plan to play one of the composer\u2019s final commissions.\nReview: Sculthorpe: The ABC Recordings\nAccording to interviews, the late Peter Sculthorpe stipulated that from the earliest he could remember, he wanted to not only be a composer but, more specifically, an Australian one. And it was during the late 50s and 60s that he came of age with innovative works like Irkanda and the seminal Sun Music I \u2013 IV \u2013 a time when Australian literature (Patrick White) and art (Drysdale, Boyd, et al) would present our land of \u2018wide and open plains\u2019, not to mention indigenous culture to an international audience. In this generous boxed set containing several ARIA winners, we see his growth as a composer, often leading to to a later rewrite. For example, there are two performances of Sun Music (the old EMI recording led by John Hopkins and a later one featuring the Adelaide Symphony with David Porcelijn which replaces western style drones with didjeridu). Irklanda IV has three recordings, the bird-like glissandi and static approach reflecting the heat of the outback. The orchestral recordings culminate in his late masterpiece, his Requiem which brings together the Adelaide forces under Arvo Volmer with didjeridu virtuoso, William Barton. An equally important bonus lies in a DVD devoted to the works that arguably\u2026\nReview: Sculthorpe: Complete Solo Piano Music (Cislowska)\nYou certainly couldn\u2019t wish for a better send-off. Though sadly passing away earlier this year, Peter Sculthorpe is celebrated in a wonderful way on this recording. Over the course of his entire career, Sculthorpe always returned to the piano, his own instrument. Before his death, he closely supervised the recording of this superb two-disc set, and specifically chose pianist Tamara-Anna Cislowska as the ideal proponent of his works. The program is organised chronologically, beginning with a set of short works written at the age of just 15. For the first half of the first disc or thereabouts, we\u2019re comfortably in a sort of Debussy-esque territory that many wouldn\u2019t quickly associate with Sculthorpe. These early works have rather delightfully evocative titles such as Falling Leaves, Prelude to a Puppet Show, and a slumbering Siesta. However, while these pieces (mostly written before he turned 20) are very beautiful, his unique compositional voice was yet to emerge. \u201cKoto Music includes a sound that resembles nothing so much as a blues-style slide guitar\u201d By the time we\u2019ve arrived at the mid-1950s with the Sonatina, his familiar stylistic approaches have begun to make an appearance, and with the fully-fledged Sonata of 1963, we\u2019ve come to\u2026\nSculthorpe memorialised with new fellowship\nNSW Government and Sydney Conservatorium announces new $30,000 award\nAudio Visual, Chamber, Classical Music, Dance, Film, Instrumental, Musical Theatre & Cabaret, Opera, Orchestral, Theatre, Visual Art, Vocal & Choral\nOctober issue of Limelight Magazine: On Sale Now\nWhich works of today will be the classics of tomorrow?

One of my friends broke up with her boyfriend, another is interested in a girl and he is so worried that it won't work out even though she likes him back, a third one is just lonely and don't know how to handle it, a fourth one is dreaming nightmares about her ex-boyfriend.\nWhat is it in spring that brings out all of our feelings and warms up our hearts? Suddenly we are confused human beings with no plans and no focus. We start worrying and feeling lonely, even though things are going well. It's like traveling back to graduation times in high school or at my pre college, where everyone were so happy to have each other because we knew that we soon would be out in the world on our own, and we might never see each other again even though we were good friends. That's the feeling of spring. And I wrote a song about it. So if you're lucky I can record it on tuesday and put it up here!\nI wish you all love and happiness.

But I did start some non-blog writing, on my computer, while sitting in a chair \u2014 As opposed to random idea scrawling on old receipts and napkins while standing in the grocery line or at a red light, and then throwing them out, which has been my practice for the last several years.\nI went to Yoga, when almost every part of my being would have preferred to eat a burrito in bed while watching TV. I gave myself permission to do that, if I really needed to, and then I went and did what I suspected would feel better. And it did. Much better. And there\u2019s still resistance.\nAnd so.

        "raw_content": "The Commercial Court in England and Wales recently determined that any right to litigation privilege can only apply to a person that is a party to the actual proceedings or litigation, and not to any other person that may be controlling the litigation.\nMinera Las Bambas SA and another v Glencore Queensland Ltd. and others\nIn Minera Las Bambas SA v Glencore Queensland Ltd., the court examined whether a party can claim litigation privilege over documents arising from proceedings controlled by that party under a \u201cconduct of claims\u201d clause.\nThe defendants claimed litigation privilege in respect of documents it prepared in contemplation of proceedings in Peru. The proceedings in Peru were initiated by the claimants against the Peruvian tax authority. However, the defendants had, under a contractual right, assumed control of those proceedings.\nThe claimants challenged the defendants' claim to litigation privilege. They argued that it was not open to the defendants to assert privilege in relation to proceedings in which the defendants were not a party and that only the claimants could assert such privilege. The defendants submitted that the privilege belonged to them in circumstances where they were \u201cin all but name the effective party\u201d to the proceedings in Peru.\nThe court rejected the defendants\u2019 argument that the person controlling litigation can assert litigation privilege against the party which it is controlling. Instead, the court accepted the claimant\u2019s proposition that litigation privilege can only arise in favour of a person who is a party to the litigation in question.\nThe court also added that even if it was \u201copen to the defendants as a matter of principle to assert litigation privilege where it controls litigation of a party\u201d, the defendants were exercising control in relation to documents created for use in other proceedings, to which they were not a party.\nCommon Interest Privilege\nAs a secondary argument, the claimants had argued that even if the defendants could claim privilege over those documents, the claimants were entitled to inspect those documents on the basis of the parties\u2019 joint or common interest. It was not necessary for the court to consider joint or common interest privilege in its judgment on the basis of its finding above.\nHowever, it is important to bear in mind that the Irish courts have held that there is no unique category of privilege known as common interest privilege \u2013 rather this description can be used to preserve legal professional privilege where the third party has a common interest in the subject of the privilege with the primary holder thereof. The Irish courts do not yet appear to have considered whether or not a person can withhold from another having a joint interest, a document that is otherwise privileged as against the rest of the world.\nThe position in England and Wales is that, if two parties share a joint or common interest in the subject matter of a privileged document, then they may be entitled to assert privilege as against the rest of the world but not against each other.\nHowever, what is unclear is whether common interest privilege can apply to documents created at a time when the relationship between the parties has broken down. The defendants had submitted that common interest privilege could not arise because the parties were already in dispute when the documents were created. The Court did not determine this issue.\nThis decision is important for any non-party who controls litigation pursuant to a contractual right or an insurance policy as it calls into question whether the controlling party might be able to assert privilege in any separate disputes with third parties. The doctrine of common or joint interest privilege may be relied upon if the two parties share a joint or common interest in the subject matter of an already privileged document. It might also be useful for a controlling party to include in its agreement with the party to the litigation, a clause requiring that person to assert if necessary any litigation privilege which might arise in any separate disputes between the controlling party and third parties.",

        "raw_content": "Orlando Bloom Visits Children In Eastern Ukraine\nUNICEF Goodwill Ambassador Orlando Bloom travelled to conflict-hit eastern Ukraine to raise awareness of the global education crisis facing children in humanitarian emergencies.\nOrlando Bloom plays lego with pupils of School #13 in Slovyansk, as part of a visit to conflict-hit eastern Ukraine.\nCredit/Copyright: UNICEF/UN017899/Georgiev\nBloom visited classrooms hit by shells just three kilometres from the frontline of the conflict that broke out more than two years ago. Approximately 580,000 children are in urgent need of aid and more than 230,000 children have been forced from their homes. Around one in five schools and kindergartens in the region have been damaged or destroyed and around 300,000 children are in immediate need of assistance to continue their education.\nThe trip came as new findings show that nearly a quarter of the world\u2019s school-aged children \u2013 462 million \u2013 now live in countries affected by crisis.\n\u201cI met children like 11 year old Liana who hid in the basement of their school for almost two weeks, in freezing conditions, without lighting or heat, while shelling devastated the classrooms above,\u201d said Orlando Bloom, who first travelled to see UNICEF\u2019s work in 2007. \u201cNow, after surviving some of the most terrifying experiences life could possibly throw at them, all they want is to get back to the safety and routine of school and plan for their futures.\u201d\nEducation Cannot Wait \u2013 proposing a fund for education in emergencies, written by the Overseas Development Institute and commissioned by a range of partners including UNICEF, reveals that nearly one in six \u2013 or 75 million \u2013 children from pre-primary to upper-secondary age (3-18) living in nations affected by crises is classed as being in desperate need of educational support. However, on average, only two per cent of global humanitarian appeals are dedicated to education.\nAt the very first World Humanitarian Summit in Istanbul in less than three weeks\u2019 time, a groundbreaking new fund \u2013 Education Cannot Wait \u2013 will be launched to give access to learning to every child in need in emergencies. It aims to raise nearly $4 billion to reach 13.6 million children in need of education in emergencies within 5 years, before reaching 75 million children by 2030.\n\u201cEducation changes lives in emergencies,\u201d said Josephine Bourne, UNICEF\u2019s Global Chief of Education. \u201cGoing to school keeps children safe from abuses like trafficking and recruitment into armed groups and is a vital investment in children\u2019s futures and in the future of their communities. It is time education is prioritised by the international community as an essential part of basic humanitarian response, alongside water, food and shelter.\u201d\nIn eastern Ukraine, and in emergencies across the world, UNICEF is working around the clock to get children back to learning \u2013 to keep them safe and secure their futures. UNICEF so far has supported the repair and rehabilitation of 57 schools in eastern Ukraine and has supplied hundreds of thousands of children with vital supplies like schoolbooks, desks and pencils, as well as psychological support and catch-up classes. UNICEF has also reached nearly 280,000 children with information on the risks posed by land mines and unexploded ordnance, which litter communities near the frontline.\n\u201cFor too many children in eastern Ukraine, simply walking to school could end their life, or result in life-changing injuries,\u201d said Giovanna Barberis, UNICEF Representative in Ukraine. \u201cSince the beginning of the crisis, more than 55,000 unexploded landmines, shells and other ordnance have been found and removed \u2013 and we know this is just the tip of the iceberg. Our aim is to ensure that all children can safely get to class, study and play.\u201d\nDuring his time in eastern Ukraine, Bloom also met with schoolchildren who are receiving counselling from UNICEF-supported psychologists, to help them recover from their distressing experiences during the conflict.\n\u201cEducation is providing children in eastern Ukraine with the building blocks to rebuild their lives in a safe and supportive environment,\u201d said Bloom. \u201cEvery child in humanitarian emergencies deserves a fair chance of a bright future.\u201d\nAcross the world, more than 37 million primary and lower secondary children are out of school and educational facilities are continually forced to close as a consequence of conflicts and of natural disasters \u2013 putting millions more at risk. In Syria alone more than 6000 schools are out of use \u2013 attacked, occupied by the military or taken over as an emergency shelter. In North-East Nigeria and Cameroon more than 1,800 schools have been shut due to the crisis and in conflict-hit Central African Republic a quarter of schools are not functioning.",

        "raw_content": "Los Angeles Peeking while Loitering Lawyers\nLegal Help for Los Angeles Peeking While Loitering Charges\nCalifornia laws offer vital protections for all citizens, but some laws are fraught with the potential for false, confused, or wrongful accusations that get innocent people in trouble. Peeking while loitering is one such troublesome law.\nDefining Peeking While Loitering\nPeeking while loitering is a single charge that entails two types of action. First, we have loitering, which is defined as lingering or hanging out on private property without having any evident business to conduct with the property owner. So if a representative from the local government utility department is on private property, then he or she has a visible reason to be there and has evidence of business to conduct on the property and, thus, would not be considered to be loitering. Once their work is done, however, if they linger on the property or delay their exit for no business reason, they can be seen as loitering.\nPeeking is the next part of the charge. Peeking falls under the state\u2019s Peeping Tom laws which are in place to make it illegal for people to peek in the windows or doors of a privately owned, inhabited property \u2014 unless, of course, they have permission from the owner. There doesn\u2019t need to be any particularly unsavory conduct outside or overly personal activity happening inside the home for someone to run afoul of the peeking laws. Simply peeking into a home to make sure the resident is okay or to verify that someone is home can get you accused of this crime.\nCombining these two actions creates the charge of peeking while loitering. It is considered both a potential invasion of a reasonable expectation of privacy and an intrusion and charges can result in both fines and jail time.\nGetting Help after a Peeking While Loitering Accusation\nWe understand that many accused of peeking while loitering in Los Angeles are perfectly innocent of any dangerous, criminal or offensive intentions. A simple misunderstanding between neighbors, contractors and home owners, or visitors can result in charges that don\u2019t reflect the actual intentions of the individual charged with this crime.\nTogether, we can go over the facts of your case and determine if there are any details that have been overlooked by law enforcement which clear you of the charges. There are a surprising number of incidents and conditions that can quickly clear you of these charges and help you move on with your life. At our firm, we look at the purpose of your visit to the property and determine whether you were really loitering or had actually wandered onto the property \u2014 a different circumstance entirely. We will also explore whether the property is, in fact, inhabited and considered private. If it was not considered private property, then there would be no expectation of privacy which can quickly overturn the peeking aspect of the charge. In addition, we will get detailed information about the reasons for your visit in order to assess whether you, in fact, had a completely valid and legal reason to be on the property.\nWhen you are accused of peeking while loitering in Los Angeles, you are not alone. We are there to help defend your innocence and present the facts to the court so that you can get your life back.",

The grant, which is valued at $350,000 a year for five years, will benefit statewide student health initiatives, as well as targeted initiatives in six select school systems.\n\"We are thrilled Louisiana has been selected as a recipient of this federal grant,\" said State Superintendent John White. \"The funding will help our schools increase the number of students who consume nutritious food and beverages, who participate in daily physical education and activity, and who can effectively manage their chronic health conditions.\"\nTo achieve these goals, the Louisiana Department of Education and the Louisiana Department of Health will partner to:\nSupport the development of school health advisory councils, the use of an online self-assessment and planning tool called the School Health Index, and the use of technology to increase communication and dissemination of information to school administrators and staff, parents, students and community members;\nProvide training to school administrators and staff and members of local advisory councils to promote school health, implement school wellness policies, improve the nutrition environment, increase physical education and activity, and manage chronic health conditions; and\nProvide technical assistance to adopt supportive nutrition and physical education and activity environments, to foster a systemic approach to managing chronic health conditions, and assist in the integration of activities that promote health outside of school.\nWhile these activities are expected to be implemented statewide, the state education and health departments have selected six local school systems with which to prioritize this work. The departments will partner with elementary, middle and high schools in the public school systems in Calcasieu, East Baton Rouge, Lafayette, St. Landry and Tangipahoa parishes, as well as in the City of Monroe. These school systems were selected based on need following a statewide evaluation of school environments and parish-wide health data.\nThe $350,000 grant allocation for the 2018-2019 school year will be awarded to the state on June 30, 2018, and the state will then provide each selected school system with $8,000 to $10,000. This will continue each year of the five-year grant.\n\"Schools play a critical role in helping students establish lifelong healthy behaviors,\" said Melissa Martin, Director of Well-Ahead Louisiana, an initiative of the Department of Health aimed at improving the health and wellness of Louisiana residents. \"We are excited to continue our partnership with the Department of Education to ensure all students have the opportunity to be healthy and successful.\"",

The age he lived had witnessed the flourish of capitalism as well as the prosperity of industrialization and urbanization. During the 19th century, the American economy developed at so fast rate that most people were bound up in pursuing the material satisfaction , while ingored the spiritual life to a great extent. But Thoreau was quite different from other people, he disdained the modern civilization and attached more importance to the spirit than the material. He thought many people of his time lived in a non-human-like modern society and many modern appliances, such as trains and telegraphs, had done harm to people's harmonious life peace and also broken the relationship between human and nature.\nIn order to prove that without the modern instruments , people can also live a happy life, in 1845, he moved into a cabin on the shore of Walden Pond and live there alone for two years to get close to the nature .Walden, is the famous book mainly talks about his life and thoughts during those days living in the woods .\nThoreau was so happy with the life living near the lake of Walden that he felt it a sweet grace to have the nature' accompany and even the sounds of rain and the sights around his house were full of sincere friendship. In his eyes, the nature was an intimate friend of him and all things in the nature were lively and vivacious. And all kinds of animals in the wood, such as field mouses, robins and wild rabbits were amicably treated and regarded as his adorable companions. He even thought that plants were also had the right to live equal with human beings. Just because of this, he even blamed himself for hitting chestnut trees with stones. From many words or sentences, we can easily feel Thoreau's deep love and care towards nature.\nBesides, Thoreau was a pioneering nature lover, who called on people to stop destorying nature but protect it by setting himself an example to others. The consciousness of the environmental protection is becoming more and more important in our modern society, while the whole world is trapped in some serious ecological crisises resulting from hunting and killing animals, cutting down trees and polluting the rivers for pursuit of human beings' own interests. We all have the common sense that the number of wildlife is decreasing, the area of lake is shrinking, and the water is not clear any more. What's worse, environment problems such as globe warming, climate change and air and water pollution are deteriorating during the commercial process . So it's high time that we should realize we never be the dominator of the whole world conquring nature, but should spare no efforts to improve the environment right away. That is, we should comply with the natural laws, make reasonable utilization of natural resources and keep the harmonious development between the society and the environment. Only in this way will we has an opportunity to embrace a bright future and achieve a sustainable society .\nIn the book, Walden, Thoreau not only advocated the protection of nature, but also encourage people to comprehend and return to nature. He told us using his own experience that by living a simple life close to nature, we human beings will find out the true value of life and significance of existence.\nAfter reading the book, what impressed me most is the description of the fascinating scenery around the Walden pound, especially these sentences: \"A lake is the landscape's most beautiful and expressive feature. It is earth's eye; looking into which the beholder measures the depth of his own nature. The fluviatile trees next the shore are the slender eyelashes which fringe it, and the wooded hills and cliffs around are its overhanging brows\". To Thoreau, the Walden lake is like a charming and melting girl , who has slender eyelashes and likes to dress herself in different beautiful clothes with the changes of different seasons.\nEvery morning after getting up, Thoreau would have a bath in the Walden lake to start a new day. After that, he used to wander around the pond and refresh himself with the fresh air. In summer days , he cultivated a piece of land and growed beans, blackberries, johnsworts and the like. The depiction of his leisure rurality spontaneously reminds me of Tao Yuanming, the famous Chinese poet, who lived in the Jin Dynasty and made his life meaningful by returning to the nature and perfecting himself. If Thoreau and Tao Yuanming lived in the same period and place, they would probably become best friends.\nFrom the book, we know that during the years when Thoreau lived near the Walden, he did not completely isolate himself from the outside world. Sometimes he went to the town and did odd jobs and would receive visitors and friends in his cabin at times. As I mention before, the intention for his living in the woods was that he wanted to teach people how to live a simple life, achieve enjoyment from the nature, free oneself from the strained daily life and what is more important is to reevaluate the value of social life.\nThoreau's though of enjoying a simple life has a more realistic significance and have become a valuable spiritual wealth in our modern society. With the development of the material civilization, people's desires are swelling limitlessly and many people are busy with the pursuit of wealth and luxurious life by any means, including at the expense of nature. However, even in the society materially affluent and technologically advanced , people are not be more happier than those people who lived centuries ago, but even feel less satisfactory and complaint more about their present life as a result of having unbounded desires of getting more and better. Therefore, many people who possess a lat have become slaves of machine, working more but do not have the ability to enjoy what they have.\nIn the book Walden, Thoreau had realize this problem several hundreds ago. Thus, he set his mind to give a enlightenment to awake people and encourage them to live a simple life. His thoughts have great similarity with the belief of our Chinese humanism, that is, the meaning of life lies in the sane and healthy enjoyment of a simple life. In fact, Thoreau and his teacher and friend Emerson praised highly on Confucianism and both them benefited a lot from it. I am very happy to see the interlinked place between Chinese culture and western culture.\nReading this book is like having a tranquil steam flow through my heart, washing the dust in my mind. It teaches me how to keep a pure spirit in the complex society, set proper goals for my life as well as enjoy the endows of nature. In short, I feel it quite worthwhile to read the book Walden. I sincerely hope more and more people would like to read this book and receive benefits from it .\n\u8d44\u672c\u8bba\u8bfb\u540e\u611f1500\u5b57\n\u7b80\u7231\u8bfb\u540e\u611f\u82f1\u6587\u7248\n\u98d8\u8bfb\u540e\u611f\u82f1\u6587\n\u6d77\u7684\u5973\u513f\u8bfb\u540e\u611f1000\u5b57\n\u672c\u6587\u6807\u9898:\u74e6\u5c14\u767b\u6e56\u82f1\u6587\u8bfb\u540e\u611f\n\u4e2d\u5916\u540d\u8457\u597d\u6bb5\n\u751f\u4ea7\u8f66\u95f4\u5b89\u5168\u6807\u8bed\n\u6bdb\u6cfd\u4e1c\u8bd7\u8bcd\u540d\u53e5\n\u706f\u5149\u8bfb\u540e\u611f500\u5b57\n\u6e05\u5ec9\u540d\u8a00\u8b66\u53e5\n\u4e2d\u5b66\u751f\u597d\u8bcd\u597d\u53e5\n\u5982\u679c\u75bc\uff0c\u4f60\u5c31\u54ac\u5988\u5988\u7684\u624b\n\u6bd4\u6211\u5e74\u8f7b\u7684\u4eba\u90fd\u5728\u62fc\u547d\u8dd1\uff0c\u6211\u600e...\n\u7167\u7ba1\u597d\u6211\u7684\u5fc3\uff0c\u5b83\u5df2\u4ea4\u7ed9\u4e86\u4f60\n\u795e\u96d5\u4fa0\u4fa3\u7ecf\u5178\u53f0\u8bcd\n\u9a6c\u82f1\u4e5d\u7ecf\u5178\u8bed\u5f55\u8bed\u53e5\n\u6700\u503c\u5f97\u4ea4\u5f80\u7684\u4eba\uff1a\u90a3\u4e2a\u820d\u4e0d\u5f97\u82b1...\n\u63cf\u5199\u590f\u5929\u666f\u8272\u7684\u597d\u6bb5\n\u81ea\u6211\u53cd\u7701\u7684\u8bed\u53e5",

        "raw_content": "Mr. Koch's Philosophy On Homework\nI believe it is important for students to have some homework during the week. The experts say about 10 minutes a night (X) times the child's age, so if your child is 12 years old that would be about 120 minutes (2 hours) a night. At the middle school we will be giving homework, but rarely will it ever be two hours worth. When it comes to homework, I have three suggestions that have worked in the past for parents, including me!\nYour child was given an assignment book at the beginning of the year, and he/she is required to use it. Some parents are lucky and have a child who likes school and is always organized and ready to go. Some of us are not so lucky and it seems like a never ending battle with organization and homework. For those parents, I encourage you to work with your child and develop a plan that allows you to check the planner, but allows your child to feel in control of their academic responsibilities. Each academic team also has a web page. Each teachers web page can be found at the MMS website, and should be updated daily.\nLet the Teachers Teach\nOne of the biggest reasons parents and children get into power struggles is homework. When you start to feel stressed out over homework or maybe you don't understand the assignment, I encourage you to put the assignment away and bring your child to school early and let the teacher do what they do best, and that is teach. Our staff is very dedicated to teaching your child and they tell students all of the time to seek them out for help. Our teachers are here from 7:45 to 3:45 PM. If your child is embarrassed to go see a teacher, have him/her bring a friend. Oftentimes the friend has questions too.\nICU is a program we started a few year ago that promotes students doing their homework and doing it correctly. When a student comes to school and their assignment is not completed or completed to a satisfactory level the student attends our noon or after school ICU. ICU is led by a person we call a \"life guard\" as they are trying to protect your child from getting behind. We also have voluntary ICU from 7:45 to 8:10 each day. If your child is struggling with homework at home, put the book away and send them to ICU in the morning! Our ICU program has significantly reduced late work. ICU program has also helped us significantly drop \"D's\"and \"F's\" in our school. Last year we had no incomplete assignments at the end of the year!",

        "raw_content": "The Magellan Jets Flight Support Team is available 24/7/365 to make your travel experience as seamless as possible. Creating itineraries, planning your schedule and tracking your flight are all things that you do not have to worry about. Even ground transportation upon arrival will be taken out of your hands so your only worry while traveling is what to do when you get there.\nMake Sure There Is WIFI\nBeing able to work efficiently while in the air is one of the most important factors to maintaining productivity. More often than not, WIFI connectivity is available on your jet of choice, but it\u2019s always important to double check. It is a good idea to download all documents offline just in case WIFI is not available.\nMinimize Stops\nPrivate travel gives you a big edge when it comes to accessing hard-to-reach clients. The fact is that some commercial airports are simply not easy to get to. A meeting held far at a manufacturing campus way off the urban map, for example, can require two flight changes and layovers when flying commercial. Private Fixed FBO\u2019s (Fixed Based Operator) get you much closer to those destinations. This is an important consideration for roadshows, as it makes it possible to hit several destinations in a day or two.\nCabin pressure makes a big difference in how well rested you are when the flight is over. Some aircraft prioritize keeping the cabin at lower altitude pressure, which creates a more normalized oxygen flow. The Gulfstream G650, for example, has the lowest cabin altitude of any business jet and replenishes 100 percent fresh air every two minutes. At flight level 41,000 feet, the cabin is pressurized to 3,000 feet \u2013 twice as low as commercial airlines. That means your body doesn\u2019t have to work as hard to stay alert and refreshed.\nExecutives can\u2019t afford to use travel as an excuse for being unproductive. If you are headed out on business, be sure to plan smart and stay efficient in the air.",

Andrew said he\u2019d divorce me if I did anything.\n\u2018When you\u2019ve had children, your body changes; there\u2019s history to it. I like the evolution of that history; I\u2019m fortunate to be with somebody who likes the evolution of that history. I think it\u2019s important to not eradicate it.\n\u2018I look at someone\u2019s face and I see the work before I see the person\u2026. You\u2019re certainly not staving off the inevitable. And if you\u2019re doing it out of fear, that fear\u2019s still going to be seen through your eyes. The windows to your soul, they say.\u2019\nShe adds: \u2018I\u2019m not a spokesperson against the world of injectables\u2026 But I didn\u2019t grow up in that world.\n\u2018The reason I went to train as an actor was that I was interested in it for the long haul. You can become very self-obsessed, but you\u2019ve got to keep looking outward.\u2019\nBlanchett insists she keeps herself separate from Hollywood, and that acting is only part of the picture for her.\n\u2018I don\u2019t exist in that world,\u2019 she says. \u2018I observe it, but there\u2019s so much else to be thinking about.\n\u2018Maybe it\u2019s because I\u2019m with someone who\u2019s not with me because of that; I\u2019m not a trophy.\n\u2018He likes the vessel, but he also wants to make sure the vessel is full.\n\u2018The world of film can be so noisy, but the other aspects of my life are actually the noisiest parts of my life. My best friends are a social worker and a visual artist.\u2019\nThe actress also reveals she hasn\u2019t ruled out having more children, saying: \u2018Who knows? Don\u2019t close those doors. The world is very overpopulated, but we do make nice ones. They all look like Andrew. To say he has dominant genes would be an understatement.\u2019\nAnd what will she do when movie-making isn\u2019t a main focus anymore?\n\u2018I think I just want to garden \u2013 or kill some plants, in my case.\u2019\nThis is one hugely talented woman, who\u2019s definitely got her head screwed on.\nSEE CATE, BRAD & ANGE GO GLAM AT THE CURIOUS CASE OF BENJAMIN BUTTON PREMIERE",

It was one of those things like, \"We do it now or we'll probably never do it.\"\nBefore I got into the plane: Training on the ground took all of three minutes. The instructors said, \"Make a banana shape! Keep your head up, and you'll be great.\" I said, \"That's it? That's all the training you get?\"\nBefore I jumped: I was really, really scared, but then I decided to melt into the experience.\nFree-falling feels: Very surreal. It feels big, like a huge thing is happening. Skydiving is special because: It's almost the closest to an out-of-body experience you can have. We live in such a stimulated, connected, busy world\u2014to be up in the air with nothing but yourself and the landscape is incredibly peaceful.\nNext up on my bucket list: I've already bungee jumped, so I am thinking about diving with sharks.

        "raw_content": "Upcoming Action with Respect to the Orderly Liquidation Authority under the Dodd-Frank Act\nThe Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) has announced that the agenda for its board meeting next Tuesday, January 18, 2011, will include discussion regarding a \u201cFinal Rule Implementing Certain Orderly Liquidation Authority Provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act.\u201d\nTitle II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the \u201cDodd-Frank Act\u201d) was enacted to help avoid a repeat of the chaos that followed the collapse of Lehman Brothers in 2008 and the ensuing bailouts of \u201ctoo big to fail\u201d financial institutions. Title II creates the Orderly Liquidation Authority (OLA), a liquidation framework for the resolution of certain nonbank financial companies by the FDIC, as receiver. The term \u201cfinancial companies\u201d is generally defined to include (i) bank holding companies, (ii) nonbank financial companies that are subject to regulation by the Federal Reserve Board under Title I of the Dodd-Frank Act, (iii) companies that are \u201cpredominantly engaged\u201d in activities that the Federal Reserve Board has determined are of a financial nature or are incidental thereto and (iv) any subsidiary of the foregoing that is predominantly engaged in such activities. OLA is intended to provide the FDIC with the tools to conduct an orderly liquidation of such companies and their subsidiaries in certain circumstances.\nUnder OLA, a financial company that is determined to be a \u201ccovered financial company\u201d can be liquidated pursuant to the terms of the OLA rather than the Bankruptcy Code. Treatment as a covered financial company requires determinations by the Secretary of the Treasury (in consultation with the President) that, among other things, the financial company is \u201cin default or in danger of default,\u201d the failure of the financial company and its resolution under otherwise applicable law \u201cwould have serious adverse effects on financial stability in the United States\u201d and \u201cno viable private sector alternative is available.\u201d\nIf these necessary determinations are made and the other statutory provisions are satisfied, the FDIC is appointed as receiver for the financial company and an orderly liquidation under OLA is commenced. In specific situations, the FDIC can also appoint itself as receiver of certain of the company\u2019s subsidiaries.\nThe OLA process differs from the Bankruptcy Code regime in a number of ways. First, in many respects, the FDIC\u2019s powers under OLA parallel the resolution authority currently exercised by the FDIC for insured depository institutions under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act. The FDIC\u2019s powers under OLA include the ability to: take over the assets of and operate the financial company; sell assets or transfer assets to a bridge financial company and merge the covered financial company with another company; avoid fraudulent transfers and preferences; and repudiate certain contracts, including qualified financial contracts and indebtedness.\nSecond, the proceedings, standards and many substantive provisions of OLA differ from those of the Bankruptcy Code in potentially important ways. For example, the OLA provisions defining when a transfer occurs for the purpose of a preferential transfer analysis differ from those of the Bankruptcy Code. As a result, in circumstances where perfection of such transfers by possession or other means could trump perfection by the filing of a financing statement under the Uniform Commercial Code (such as transactions involving the transfer or pledge of chattel paper or instruments), there may be a greater risk under OLA than under the Bankruptcy Code that such previous transfers of property by a party subject to an OLA receivership could be avoided as preferential transfers. This risk could potentially impact a large number of secured loans and structured finance transactions, as well as all lenders that take such categories of personal property as collateral.\nHowever, in December 2010, the Acting General Counsel of the FDIC issued a General Counsel\u2019s Letter (the \u201cFDIC Letter\u201d) providing an interpretation of OLA that concludes that the treatment of preferential and fraudulent transfers under OLA was intended to be consistent with, and should be interpreted in a manner consistent with, the related provisions under the Bankruptcy Code. The FDIC Letter also states that the Acting General Counsel will recommend that the FDIC Board of Directors adopt regulations to the same effect. The FDIC Letter is not, however, a regulation; it is not binding on the FDIC and could be modified or withdrawn in the future.\nTitle II became effective on July 22, 2010 and, therefore, OLA is currently available if a financial company experiences financial difficulty. However, under Section 209 of Title II, the FDIC (in consultation with the Financial Stability Oversight Council) is required to prescribe such rules or regulations as it considers necessary to implement OLA. There is no statutory deadline for the issuance of such rules.\nOn October 19, 2010, the FDIC published proposed rules to address certain discrete aspects of OLA, such as when the FDIC can treat similarly situated claimants differently, when payments to creditors can be clawed back and the treatment of personal services contracts under OLA. Comments on these proposed rules were due by November 18, 2010. The proposing release also asked several general questions about OLA and the need for additional regulations, and responses to most of the questions are due next Tuesday, January 18, 2011.\nWhile the timing of future actions with respect to OLA is unclear, the FDIC board of directors is scheduled to discuss the issuance of final rules related to certain aspects of OLA at next week\u2019s meeting and it is widely anticipated that the FDIC will publish additional proposed rules for public comment in the first quarter of 2011. Therefore, all interested parties should anticipate additional developments regarding the topic shortly.\nFor more information about the Orderly Liquidation Authority or any other matter raised in this Legal Update, please contact at +1 312 701 7097, at +1 312 701 7240, or at +1 202 263 3293.\nLearn more about our Financial Services Regulatory & Enforcement, Leveraged Finance and Structured Finance practices.\nJ.

Find government funding today!\nProspectors and developers from across the globe gathered in Toronto last week to attend the 2016 Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada (PDAC) Convention. Many members attending the event were surprised to hear that PDAC is helping its members to access government funding in the form of grants, contributions, and tax credits.\nTraditionally, financing for the mining sector has closely been linked with stock markets. In fact, almost 60% of the 2,340 companies listed on the TSX Venture Exchange are junior prospectors and developers. On the government incentive side of the ledger, a common mechanism to attract investment in mining companies is flow-through shares (FTSs), where investors that acquire FTSs benefit from deductions for resources expenses renounced by the mining company, as well as from investment tax credits for individuals on eligible resource expenses.\nWhile these funding mechanisms are well-known to prospectors and developers, fewer entrepreneurs in the sector are aware of the vast array of other government funding programs that can support innovation, job creation, capital expenses, exporting, and more.\nAnother misconception about funding in the mining sector is that grants are only for private businesses, not those that trade on the stock market. In fact, some of the largest government funding awards in Canada are made to established (and listed) corporations to support their large-scale innovation and job creation activities, which stimulate the economy.\nLast summer, the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada (PDAC) entered into a new partnership with Funding Portal to ensure its members have access to North America\u2019s full range of government funding for business, as well as improved access to private sector funding in the form of debt and equity.\n\u201cWe are keen to ensure that our industry gets the full benefit of these products and solutions through their relationship with PDAC,\u201d said Rod Thomas, President, PDAC.\nUnder its mandate with PDAC, Funding Portal identified that there are currently 47 government funds that are specific to the mining industry, but that there are another 463 objective-based funds that are also open to prospectors and developers. These funds can quickly be found by using the Funding Search tool on the Funding Portal website.\n\u2039 Customer Value Proposition is like falling in love\n\u201cYou Want to do What?

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Criminal Defense \u00bb Texas Criminal Process \u00bb Intoxication Defense\nGetting intoxicated is one of mankind\u2019s oldest traditions. 2018 nationwide alcohol sales topped $200 billion. More states are slowly beginning to legalize marijuana, and the black market for illegal drugs generates hundreds of billions of dollars in revenue every year.\nIt\u2019s not uncommon for Texans to break the law while they\u2019re intoxicated. Most of the arrests for intoxication involve people who knowingly took drugs or drank too much. Sometimes, though, those who are arrested became intoxicated without their consent or knowledge. It may be possible to raise the intoxication defense in these rare cases.\nDefense Attorney for Intoxication in Dallas\nIf you\u2019re facing criminal charges for something that happened while you were intoxicated, you need to talk to the defense attorneys at the Law Offices of Richard C. McConathy. We can review the facts in your case to determine whether you were the victim of involuntary intoxication.\nThe Law Offices of Richard C. McConathy has handled thousands of cases since 2002. We can help you present the best possible defense in court against your charges. Our attorneys represent clients in Dallas, Collin, Denton, and Tarrant County courts.\nOverview of Intoxication in Dallas\nHow Does Texas Define Intoxication?\nInvoluntary vs. Voluntary Intoxication\nReal-World Examples of Involuntary Intoxication\nTexas Penal Code Section 49.01(2) specifies the elements that must be present for a person to be considered intoxicated. According to this statute, a person who is intoxicated does not have normal control of their faculties as a result of ingesting one of the following substances:\nA dangerous drug\nA combination of two or more of the above\nAny other intoxicating substance\nTexas Penal Code Section 8.04(d) provides a more succinct definition: intoxication is the disturbance of physical or mental capacity as a result of ingesting any substance. It is this definition which is applied when a defendant raises the intoxication defense.\nAll crimes contain a number of elements that must be true for a defendant to be found guilty. If any one element is not met, the prosecution cannot secure a conviction. Criminal defenses are conditions that may negate elements of a crime.\nChapter 8 of the Texas Penal Code contains a set of general defenses to criminal responsibility. Among these defenses are entrapment, duress, and intoxication.\nA defendant who raises the intoxication defense seeks to avoid culpability for a crime because they were not in control of their faculties when the crime was committed. In the next section, we\u2019ll review the two types of intoxication: involuntary and voluntary.\nWhile uncommon, involuntary intoxication (or involuntary consumption) is a viable defense for defendants who meet the necessary criteria. For an involuntary intoxication defense to succeed, it must be proven that:\nThe defendant was not voluntarily intoxicated; and\nThe defendant experienced temporary insanity as a result of involuntary intoxication.\nIf the involuntary intoxication defense succeeds, the person who caused you to become intoxicated could face prosecution instead.\nVoluntary intoxication applies to a person who knowingly consumes drugs and/or alcohol to the point of intoxication. Can you get drunk, commit a crime, and still escape culpability? Section 8.04(a) of the Texas Penal Code provides a clear answer: no. It is not possible under Texas law to defend against criminal charges using a voluntary intoxication defense.\nA bizarre real-world example of involuntary intoxication involves the use of a drug called scopolamine (also called devil\u2019s breath or burundanga). Among the reported effects of scopolamine are loss of short-term memory and heightened susceptibility to suggestion. Those under the effects of the drug take on a zombie-like demeanor.\nCriminals in Colombia have used scopolamine on unwitting victims to make them submissive. In this state, a criminal can guide the intoxicated person to hand over their money and valuables. Some reports suggest that criminals can even turn their marks into unwitting criminal accomplices. Those cases may qualify for the intoxication defense.\nA Virginia man broke into a home and held two people hostage in May 2016. He stabbed one victim repeatedly and slashed the other\u2019s throat. According to the man\u2019s attorney, he was intoxicated at the time \u2013 but it was without his knowledge. According to the attorney, his client was so intoxicated by a combination of prescription medications that he was unaware of what he was doing.\nThe intoxication defense has a low success rate, but a qualified attorney can help you decide whether it\u2019s a smart strategy to apply to your case.\nChapter 8. General Defenses to Criminal Responsibility \u2013 The Texas Legislature hosts a digital copy of the Texas Statutes on its official website. Visit this link to read an online copy of the intoxication defense and other general defenses to criminal responsibility, such as entrapment and duress.\nAlleged home invader claims \u2018involuntary intoxication\u2019 defense in Fairfax abduction trial \u2013 Read this May 2016 article published by the Washington Post to read about a recent example of the intoxication defense in action. A man broke into a couple\u2019s home, violently attacked them, and held them hostage. His attorney presented the intoxication defense, claiming the man was intoxicated on a mixture of prescription medications at the time he allegedly committed the crimes.\nColombia: Beware the zombie drug \u2013 This article by Public Radio International highlights the Colombian practice of using scopolamine on others against their will. This drug reportedly causes a loss of memory and free will when administered. Those who commit crimes after involuntarily ingesting scopolamine may be able to successfully raise the involuntary intoxication defense in court.\nDefense Lawyer for Intoxication in Dallas\nIt\u2019s scary enough to be drugged without your consent. It\u2019s even scarier to regain your senses to find you\u2019re facing criminal charges for something you did while you were intoxicated. It\u2019s not your fault, and you shouldn\u2019t have to face incarceration, fines, and a criminal record.\nThe Law Offices of Richard C. McConathy can review the evidence in your case and evaluate whether your situation qualifies for the intoxication defense. We will also explore any other avenues available to dismiss your charges and clear your name. We\u2019ve defended thousands of criminal cases since 2002, and our attorneys are equipped with the experience to achieve the best possible result for you.\nContact the Law Offices of Richard C.

They also identified sociodemographic and medical risk factors associated with readmission.\nIn a recent study published in JAMA Surgery, researchers identified surgical procedures and patient factors associated with hospital readmission rates in the 30 days following pediatric surgery. They used previously collected data from the American College of Surgeons Pediatric National Surgery Quality Improvement Program. This data tracks surgical procedures performed, 30-day outcomes, and preoperative and intraoperative risk factors that could account for hospital readmissions. Data recorded from 2012 to 2014 including 183,233 children younger than 18 years at 56 children\u2019s hospitals in the United States were analyzed in the study.\nOf the 183,233 patients, 8,838 (4.8%) were readmitted to the hospital within 30 days of their initial pediatric surgeries.Of these patients, 712 (8.1%) had more than one readmission within 30 days. The majority of readmissions were unplanned, and almost half were not related to the patient\u2019s initial operations.\nThe researchers identified pediatric surgeries with the highest 30-day unplanned readmission rates. The three surgeries with the highest rates were laparoscopic ileostomy/jejunostomy, portoenterostomy, and diagnostic thoracoscopy. The first two surgeries involve the small bowel, while the latter refers to a procedure used to diagnose pulmonary disease. When readmissions were examined by medical specialty, children who received neurosurgical procedures were the most likely to be readmitted.\nThe reasons for related (related to the surgeries performed) and unrelated readmissions (unrelated to the surgeries performed) were also examined. Infection at the surgical site was the most common reason for related readmissions, while seizures, pneumonia, and urinary tract infections were the most common causes of unrelated readmissions. Risk factors for 30-day unplanned readmissions included the following: neurosurgical or laparoscopic procedures, female sex, Asian race/ethnicity, higher American Society of Anesthesiologists classification (higher level indicates worse health prior to surgery), current cancer treatment, patients with cerebral palsy, and patients with clean-contaminated cases (surgical site contains some microbial contaminants). Conversely, neonatal patients who underwent urologic procedures versus pediatric general surgery were less likely to experience unplanned readmissions.\nAn understanding of risk factors associated with unplanned readmissions to the hospital following pediatric surgery is needed to better serve patients and improve quality of care, although not all risk factors are modifiable. While this study was strengthened by a large sample size, it included data from only 56 children\u2019s hospitals, which may not be representative of all surgical centers nationally.\nWritten by Suzanne M.

        "raw_content": "we need to arm our military and motivate them with good working conditions in other To defeat terrorism - says Atiku Abubakar\n2019 PDP\u2019s presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar wrote a lenghty piece as a guest columnist for Thisday titled, \u2018To Win the War on Terror, We Need Opportunities and Jobs\u2019.\nIn the article, Atiku said, \u2018to defeat terrorism, we need to arm our military & motivate them with good working conditions, especially the lower ranks who face the greatest risks & are the least paid. We need to demonstrate that when you fight for Nigeria, Nigeria will fight for you\u2019.\nIn order to defeat terror, Nigeria needs a well thought out anti-terror plan and one thing that must be central to that plan is the buy in of the people because terror can only thrive where there is local support. Take that local support structure away and the terror architecture will collapse like a pack of cards.\nTerrorists are themselves human beings. Terror groups depend on recruiting from the local communities to replenish their ranks or they cannot grow. The members of Boko Haram are not spirits and while there definitely is some foreign influence, the overwhelming number of their leadership and followers are members of the local population.\nCentral to our plans for defeating terror therefore must be to find out why young men in those communities are aggrieved enough to be alienated from Nigeria and attracted to the radical philosophy of Boko Haram and ISWAP. When we find out, we must prevent this alienation from occurring.\nThe key to answering this question is to look at the economy of Nigeria and how that economy is distributed.\nWithin Nigeria, the heartland of the terror insurgency is the Northeast, with Borno and Yobe states being the hardest hit. Surely, it cannot be a coincidence that the Northeast is also the most economically backward part of Nigeria with Borno and Yobe states worst affected.\nRecently, someone called Nigerian youths \u201clazy\u201d. Rightly, there was an uproar over that indecorous slandering of a whole generation, but that type of mentality exposes the mindset that has led to the alienating of huge swathes of our youth, especially in the Northeast.\nWhen Nigerian youths feel that they are not valued as equal members of society that should have equal access to opportunity, they begin to take matters into their own hands.\nWhen the leadership of a nation fail to provide positive avenues for the youth to assert their intelligence positively, then the youth will find negative uses to express their innate intelligences.\nLack of access to education is linked to poverty and poverty is undoubtedly an incubator for crime, terrorism or militancy.\nREAD Fayose Regains Freedom from EFCC Custody\nOn November 22, 2016, the United Nations Children\u2019s Fund (UNICEF) revealed that a whopping 70% of children in Kebbi state are not in school. They also revealed that they do not have reliable figures for states such as Borno and Yobe, but the numbers may well be more. Even likely so.\nIn 2016, my running mate, former Governor Peter Obi, gave an Independence Day speech at The Platform event organised by Covenant Christian Centre in Lagos. It was an unforgettable Independence Day event which, according to Google analytics, was the most searched item in Nigeria on that day, besting even the President\u2019s own speech.\nWhy was that speech so attractive to Nigerians? It is because Mr. Obi gave a detailed breakdown of the reality of governance in Nigeria today, which is one of a wasteful squandering of the riches that should have gone into the development of our youth.\nAnd he is not alone in noticing this. Youth everywhere and especially in the Northeast are seeing this. The Nigerian government and the Nigerian elite are not offering them a way out of this dilemma. However, anti social groups, like Boko Haram and ISWAP, are exploiting their dissatisfaction with society and are offering our youth a utopian ideal which is in reality a dystopia.\nThese youth read about highly connected government officials who pilfer N200 million that was meant for Internally Displaced Persons, without so much as a slap on the wrists, they hear about suspected mega thieves who are returned by government, reinstated into the civil service, given promotions and armed guards and treated like royalty.\nThese events only deepen their alienation from society and affirm the twisted messages of groups like Boko Haram and ISWAP.\nTo defeat terrorism therefore, we need to arm our military and motivate them with good working conditions and terms of services, especially for the lower ranks who face the greatest risks and are the least paid. We need to demonstrate that when you fight for Nigeria, Nigeria will fight for you, but even more importantly, we must show that when you die in the services of Nigeria, your name and your survivors will be celebrated by the society that you died for.\nWe must also help our military win the hearts and minds of the people of the Northeast by empowering them to open soup kitchens where they give food to the hungry. We must encourage them to set up field hospitals where they treat the local population free of charge. Even something as giving each soldier a pocketful of sweets to handout to little children on the streets will help the military win the love and affection of the local population and turn their allegiance to our armed forces.\nREAD Buhari appoints seven RECs, and others\nThat is one part of the plan. The other part of the plan, which is even more important, is that we must starve Boko Haram and ISWAP of their recruiting tool by quickly and effectively restructuring Nigeria so that we have a society that allows for inclusiveness and social justice.\nA very good first step is to go back in time to find out why an initially peaceful movement became violent. It all started with the extra judicial murder of their charismatic preacher and founder Ustaz Mohammed Yusuf.\nIn fact, the current leader of ISWAP, is Mohammed Yusuf\u2019s son, Abu Musab al-Barnawi. It is clear that that act of extra judicially killing Mohammed Yusuf is one of the grudges that these groups have against the Nigerian state.\nWe must deprive Boko Haram of the means of claiming injustice as the rationale behind its insurgency by trying all those behind Mohammed Yusuf\u2018s extra judicial murder.\nAs Theodore Parker said \u201cThe arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends towards justice\u201d.\nJust as we are satisfying this moral debt, as a nation, we must ensure that there is a fairer redistribution of the wealth of Nigeria amongst all Nigerians. Our budgeting system must be upended and we must have the political will to start spending more on capital expenditures than on recurrent expenditures.\nWe must curb waste in government by eliminating security votes and those wasteful spendings highlighted by Governor Peter Obi which include, but are not limited to, eliminating huge and expensive convoys, overseas medical treatment at public expense, reducing unnecessary travel and building people instead of building edifices.\nWe must learn from countries like Rwanda that has stabilised its society by statutorily reserving 30% of all legislative seats for women. As the late Kofi Annan said in 2006, \u201cthere is no tool for development more effective than the empowerment of women. No other policy is as likely to raise economic productivity, or to reduce infant and maternal mortality\u201d.\nWhen you empower a woman, you empower a family, a village, a community and eventually, a nation.\nIn our case, we can go further by reserving at least 35% of all legislative and executive positions for not just women, but also for our youth, at all levels of government, federal, states and local governments. We must convert our youths from onlookers to stakeholders.\nThey must see that it is easier for them to influence the direction of Nigeria by going into government or business than by going into crime or terrorise.\nBut above all, we must massively invest in education by building capacity, which must not just be limited to establishing more schools, but by training teachers. In a situation where we do not even have enough teachers, it is a mistake to sack the few that we have because they fail adhoc examinations. Instead, we must build their capacity to teach via training and continuous development.\nIt is impossible to have 70% of the children of a state outside the formal school system without having destabilising crime and terrorism such as we are currently having in Nigeria. And it will be a mistake to fight only the symptoms without fighting the cause.\nWe must accept the wisdom that a provision of equal opportunity and social justice is the panacea to almost all of the ills of society.\nBy reversing our budgeting ratio from 7-3 in favour of recurrent to 7-3 in favour of capital expenditure, we will create an atmosphere for jobs.\nIf we are building and rebuilding infrastructure, there will be jobs for our youth. They will have increased purchasing power, which will itself lead to further jobs flowing from the goods and services they patronise. They will keep their monies in banks, which will result in more liquidity with which the banks can then provide loans to more small and medium scale enterprises. The snowball effect is almost limitless.\nAgain, let me state that we have to make these changes to rescue our nation from the brink. Only last week, the World Bank revealed that in recent years, Nigeria \u201chas underinvested in human capital and remains very low compared to others.\u201d\nIf we do not address these negative indices, we will continue to totter, while nations that sufficiently invest in their youth make advances that we can only dream of.\nThese are the only ways we can decisively defeat terror and defeat it we must otherwise anarchy await us.\n\u2022Waziri Atiku Abubakar is the Presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party.",

        "raw_content": "IF YOU\u2019RE A MARKETER, AND ARE GOING TO READ ONLY ONE ARTICLE THIS YEAR \u2026 THIS IS IT.\nI am not trying to be overly dramatic. This is big.\nSEM, SEO, CMS, [or CPC, CAC, ROI]\u2026 the list goes on. It\u2019s a fight. What worked the last time doesn\u2019t tend to work the next. Nothing typically works as well as you want it to. Welcome to marketing. It\u2019s a game of cat and mouse. All everyone wants is more. More clicks. More likes. More engagement.\nI AM CONVINCED THAT IN THE NEXT FIVE YEARS MARKETING WILL FOCUS ALMOST EXCLUSIVELY ON THE GOAL OF ATTACHING A NAME TO A GIVEN IP ADDRESS.\nIf you are like me you are drowning in IP addresses. Great for a relative measure of effectiveness, but not actionable. But, if you attach a name to that IP address\u2026 boom, everything changes. It is only a matter of time before you start a conversation with that prospective customer.\nNot feeling the weight of the revelation? Think about it. You don\u2019t need to worry about selling anything day one. You simply need to focus on identifying who people are. This is an entirely different conundrum, requiring and entirely different approach.\nSuddenly, the big retailers don\u2019t look so crazy do they? Out of the gates it isn\u2019t about the product. It is about enticing someone to click. This is why most of the content online is sensationalized. Things are so damn entertaining, sexy, and shocking you almost have to click on the link in an email or enter in a piece of data. After that you might as well be running around online waving a flag screaming, \u201cIt\u2019s me. It\u2019s me.\u201d\n[MORE ON MARKETING AUTOMATION: A Whodunit for Fund Managers]\nThe most sophisticated marketers tend to market the least sophisticated products. It\u2019s those that sell complicated, uninteresting stuff, that tend to have it bass ackwards. We need to drop the pretense and focus on the click or form submission. Not just trying to get them, but actually harvesting the information they contain. This requires a massive shift in thinking.\nThere needs to be an entirely new layer within our marketing process. A layer designed to engage, not educate or sell. This serves one purpose and one purpose only \u2013 to identify the name behind the IP. From that point forward, substantive content (the stuff you do today) and big brother (marketing automation) will reel in the prospect.\nRecognize that credibility and creativity are not mutually exclusive. Build online traps, websites and landing pages that entice people to enter a piece of information. Send emails that flirt with people\u2019s curiosity. Build an email to entice an action, not assess interest. (That is a big statement.)\nAnd recognize none of this is possible without marketing automation software. There are many available, they work well and they\u2019re not overly expensive. But, they do require some set-up and customization. Invest the money and effort; it\u2019s a key part of being able to monetize your marketing information.\nIf you weren\u2019t fixated on linking contact details to IP addresses when you started reading this, it is a damn good thing you picked this as the one article to read this year.\n[MORE ON MARKETING AUTOMATION: Data Analytics]",

Gaga, 32, was with the film's director and co-star Bradley Cooper as well as other cast members at a Question and Answer panel at TIFF on Sunday.\nIn the film, the singer plays Ally, a struggling artist who has given up on her dream of becoming a singer until seasoned musician Jackson Maine (Cooper) convinces her to try again. Gaga praised her cast members and Cooper for putting \"every last drop of blood from their heart and their veins on set every single day\", according to the hollywoodreporter.com.\n\"I watched (Cooper) work tirelessly on this film, giving it everything, and you never stopped. Nobody here did,\" she said. She broke down in tears when Lukas Nelson -- son of Willie Nelson and co-writer of songs on the film -- told her, \"You just destroyed every single scene you were in\".\nThe words caused the audience to break into applause which instantly drew a standing ovation. Gaga was seen breaking into tears as she covered her face with her hands. She lifted her face and mouthed \"Thank you\" as the audience began to cheer louder. She has received critical acclaim for her performance in the film with critics calling her \"dynamite\". \"A Star Is Born\" will be in theatres in the US on October 5.\nlady gagahollywood news\nLady Gaga calls out Donald Trump and Pence on shutdown\nCritics' Choice Awards: The full list of winners\nLady Gaga thanks Bradley Cooper in heartfelt speech at Critics' Choice Awards\nLady Gaga and Angelina Jolie warring over Cleopatra role\nLady Gaga being pressured to condemn R.

        "raw_content": "Fall Colors in Western Kentucky\nCountry Store in Henderson County\nI left Owensboro last Wednesday and had a wonderful drive through Henderson County. I had received an email from the Henderson County Tourism Department that they were interested in some photos of the small Mom and Pop stores around their county. While I wanted to go and meet with them first, Friday was supposed to be a cloudy day so I figured if I was going to get some good photos, Thursday would be better. I really enjoyed making my way down the county\u2019s backroads and seeking these places out. While Walmart has made many small town Main Streets need to change dramatically in order to survive, the proliferation of Family Dollars and Dollar Generals has done the same to many country stores. While I understand these chains can offer better prices and a wider variety to their customers than an independent store can, it is a shame to see so many go under. Those that are hanging on seem to be offering sandwiches and deli items and doing a decent business.\nTrain Bridge Over the Ohio River\nIt took me most of the day to visit the six stores around the county, but I did get some good shots of them. Most were very plain and you might drive right by if you didn\u2019t know they were there, but they are there more to serve the local community than the casual passer-by. I pulled into Henderson in the late afternoon and found it to be a really nice little town. They have a wonderful riverfront area there on the Ohio River, and a really charming downtown. I enjoyed walking along the river and taking some photos of the train bridge and buildings along the main streets as the sun was setting in the west.\nThursday I spent most of the day in the library, as the weather had indeed turned grim. I got a lot of work done though and even managed to get out and enjoy a couple of beers at Henderson Brewing Company. I don\u2019t say this lightly, but their beers were excellent. They had a marzen which I couldn\u2019t get enough of, and an excellent alt and Oktoberfest as well. The brewers were really friendly and passionate about their beer and it was definitely a nice place to pass the evening.\nRosine Barn Jam\nFriday I spent the morning at the fabulous John James Audubon State Park just outside of Henderson. What a wonderful place it was to see. This museum is dedicated to the life and work of Audubon, who spent his life seeking out and painting the birds and then the mammals of North America. His work was really important to understanding and cataloging American wildlife in his time, and he was the first to show these animals in lifelike poses in natural surroundings. His pictures are beautiful, and this is one of the premier collections of his work in the world. He had lived in Henderson for 10 years before his paintings took off, and is remembered fondly there. The museum was really beautifully laid out and organized. I loved my visit there and would highly recommend it if you are anywhere nearby.\nClassy and Grassy at the Barn Jamboree\nI got some more work done before leaving Henderson and backtracking a bit to tiny Rosine. Rosine is the birthplace of the father of bluegrass music Bill Monroe. They also host a weekly Barn Jamboree showcasing local musical talent. The show happens literally in a barn, and it was a lot of fun. The audience was mostly older people and made me feel like a youngster which is always a nice thing. If you looked at an aerial view of our heads, I would be the speck of pepper in a sea of salt! The music was very local and a whole lot of fun. I particularly liked the two young fellas called Classy and Grassy who came up at the end. One was 9 and the other was 12 and they had a great time playing for the crowd.\nBill Monroe\u2019s Homeplace near Rosine\nI returned to Rosine the next morning to take some photos and have a look around town. Some of the fall colors were particularly bright that day. At around 9:30, I made my way out to Jerusalem Ridge and the Bill Monroe Homeplace. When I got there, I met Erinn, who gave me a wonderful tour of the property, and Cicero the groundskeeper. The tour was great and I enjoyed learning about where Bill grew up and learned to play. His life wasn\u2019t an easy one, but it seems most of the great ones faced a lot of challenges growing up. I stayed there for several hours chewing the fat with Erinn and Cicero talking about everything from music to history to politics. I really had a great time there meeting and chatting with these great Kentuckians in the amazingly restored house of a truly legendary Kentuckian.\nAfter a wonderful barbecue mutton sandwich at Slick Back Outdoors, I made my way back down the Blue Moon of Kentucky Highway and west towards Paducah. I stopped in a few places along the road to take some magical photos of the fall foliage, especially at the north end of the Land Between the Lakes National Recreation Area. I finally pulled into Paducah just after dark. Paducah is a great little city right at the confluence of the Ohio and Tennessee Rivers. Their historic downtown area is small and charming with some neat little restaurants and bars. I wandered around downtown and had a beer or two at the Paducah Beer Works.\nPaducah Market\nSunday I had brunch at Shandies right across from the market. I had a great omelet which came with some tomato gravy all of which was amazing. It\u2019s tough to really impress me with an omelet, but they did. I spent the rest of a lazy Sunday writing by the river and enjoying the sunshine. It\u2019s so nice to sit outside when the weather is cooperating. I enjoyed wandering around and taking some photos of the historic downtown area while the sun was low in the sky.\nLeaving Paducah on Monday, my birthday, I headed due west to seek out the confluence of the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers and find the western border of Kentucky. I had to travel across the Ohio River into Illinois to get a good view, but it was definitely cool to see these two great rivers come together. I visited a few of the small towns out west and then made my way back into Land Between the Lakes National Recreation Area on the Tennessee border. I had been to the Tennessee side of this park during my stay there, so it was cool to see this side as well. I wanted to get out and do some hiking, but the days are getting shorter, and I wanted to get into camp early enough to get set up and spend some time sitting by the lake. I was very impressed with the setup of this park, run by the National Forest Service, and how organized it was. I chose to stay at Energy Lake campground on the eastern side of the park. I got a beautiful lakefront site, cooked some dinner and enjoyed a birthday campfire with music and a little bit of good bourbon to sip on.\nJefferson Davis Obelisk\nI set no alarm the next day and enjoyed sleeping in a bit. It was so quiet out there. When I did get up, I enjoyed a quiet morning by the lake before heading out again. I got my water tanks filled and my sewage tanks drained and was off and running from there. My big stop for the day was at Jefferson Davis State Historic Site in Fairview. The small museum there tells of Davis\u2019 birth in a small nearby cabin, and his life in the military and in public service to the United States. He had quite and interesting life before breaking away with his adopted state of Mississippi and becoming the first and only president of the Confederate States of America. There is also a massive obelisk, very reminiscent of the Washington Monument, which stands 351 feet high on the site. I was hoping for more information then I found in this museum, but it was an interesting little site nonetheless. I also enjoyed seeing the Amish carriages clip-clopping past while I was there. Who knew there were so many Amish communities in this country?\nAnd then I was on my way into Bowling Green. I didn\u2019t get into town until late yesterday, and took a few photos downtown before heading out to the mall to finish up writing my podcast. I had a quiet night out there, and then spent today editing and recording before sitting down to write this post. As I mentioned and as you undoubtedly know, it\u2019s Halloween today, and I am looking forward to whatever the night may bring.\nSoon, I\u2019m heading into Mammoth Cave National Park, whether tomorrow or Friday I have yet to decide. Then I\u2019m headed on to Cumberland Lake, Cumberland Falls, Berea and maybe a quick stop back through Lexington before I head on into West Virginia. I want to visit my dad for a few days while I\u2019m in the neighborhood, and then I\u2019m going to come back and explore southeastern Kentucky before exiting the state and heading south for the winter. Lots left to see in this state, and I\u2019m really looking forward to it. I hope you\u2019ll come along for the ride.\nThat\u2019s it for me this week. I hope everyone has a great Halloween and a safe one. Please remember to get out and vote this week, it\u2019s important that you do. Have a wonderful week wherever you are, and I\u2019ll see you right back here next week, only I\u2019ll be somewhere completely different. Have a great week y\u2019all, and be kind to each other out there.\nPosted in Kentucky, Off The Beaten Path, Sights, Travel, travelogue, van life\ntagged with Owensboro, Henderson, John James Audubon, State Park, Kentucky, KY, Henderson County, country stores, Paducah, Land Between the Lakes, fall, autumn, colors, trees, downtown, Mississippi River, Ohio River, confluence, Cairo Illinois, Land Between the Lakes NRA, Energy Lake, Bowling Green, Mammoth Cave, Western Kentucky, Mutton barbecue",

        "raw_content": "Even though our farms look different, our values have not changed.\nFactory Farms.\nIf there is one term I am most frustrated with hearing people say, it is Factory Farms. Why? You may find this a little crazy coming from a hog farmer, but I really don\u2019t know what they are.\nWhat was that? Did you just read what you thought you read?\nYes, I struggle with what a factory farm is.\nAnd the ironic part of this statement is I actually live in the Minnesota county that markets the largest numbers of hogs in the state. In fact, we are also ranked nationally in regards to hogs marketed. So how utterly ridiculous does it sound when I say I don\u2019t know what a factory farm is?\nIt\u2019s because my vision of a \u201cfactory farm\u201d is not what I see. I envision a factory farm as a place with numerous long, cold, colorless steel buildings whose only goal is to produce as many animals as possible, as fast as possible with the least amount of money and care needed. I think of an uncaring, industrialized operation owned and run by \u201cbig money\u201d corporations. An operation that has little to no contact between the animals and people. And this is the same image companies like Chipotle, Whole Foods, and Trader Joes and animal rights activist groups like HSUS want you to envision also when you hear the word \u201cfactory farm.\u201d\nInstead of seeing factory farms, I see\u2026\nFARMS. Just farms.\nYes, we have lots of hog farms in rural Minnesota, especially in my county. And who manages and owns these farms? Is it Big Ag? Is it money hungry corporations?\nNo. These farms are owned by my neighbors, my friends, fellow church members, parents of my children\u2019s friends and people in my community. People and their families run the farms, NOT Big Ag. Yes, farms have changed over the years. But for the most part, we no longer have \u201cbig red barn farms.\u201d Even though our farms look different, our values have not changed.\nWe share the same values as our parents, grandparents and great grandparents. We care for our animals daily. It matters and affects us if our animals are sick or injured. Today\u2019s farmers work with a team to assist them in giving the best animal care. Who\u2019s on this team? Usually a veterinarian, an animal nutritionist and other consultants. The purpose of this team? Simple really\u2013to raise healthy animals.\nYes, our animals are housed inside barns, which may look to some as a factory farm. Our hogs are raised in barns because we can take better care of them. The animals no longer have to deal with the extreme effects of weather such as the brutal cold, hot and humid temperatures, snow, rain, blizzards, sun burns, etc. Nor do we have to fear predators hurting our hogs. And with today\u2019s hog genetics, our animals have a much lower fat content and cannot tolerate all the weather conditions. And, yes, we use technology in our barns to improve efficiencies, such as automatic temperature and air controls and automatic feeders. A strict vaccination program developed by veterinarians is also followed. These efficiencies result in better care and a healthier animal.\nWhy do people insist on using the word factory farm? Factory farm is a term used to evoke emotion, or rather, lack of emotion. It\u2019s a term used by those who oppose modern farming and want farmers to go back \u201cto the good old days\u201d of farming. The problem with \u201cthe good old days\u201d is they really weren\u2019t that \u201cgood\u201d in regards to animal care. People tend to only think about animals enjoying warm, beautiful summer days of 70 degrees under a shade tree. They don\u2019t think about the days immediately following a blizzard that left 20 inches of snow with -40 degree temperatures and a 30-40 mph wind, which caused the hog waterer to freeze and buried the hog feeder in snow. Or the other extreme of 100 degree days with 70% dew points where hogs are sunburned and miserable from the heat because they can\u2019t sweat to help them cool off. In both cases, pigs die and it\u2019s all about survival for the rest. Efficiencies and sustainability are the last thing on any farmer\u2019s mind during these times. Today\u2019s so-called \u201cfactory farms\u201d eliminate many of these deaths and problems.\nSo let\u2019s just take the \u201cfactory\u201d out of factory farms and call them what they really are\u2026\nFarms, just farms.\nPlanting season in southern Minnesota\nIf they weren't working the land, farmers along a stretch between Mankato and west of New Ulm were preparing to plant on Saturday.\nSubmitted by Matt Schroeder on 06/03/2014 - 08:44 am.\nGosh, I didn\u2019t realize that chickens crammed into battery cages or pigs forced to lie in gestation crates had it so good. I suppose we should also envy prisoners, since they have a roof over their heads and have a constitutional right to health care. How did animals ever survive without humans to confine them in big barns?!\nChristopher Leonard\u2019s recent book \u201cThe Meat Racket\u201d makes it very clear that the vast majority of chicken and pig production is controlled by a few large corporations who own the animals and pay farmers to raise them for a few months. That\u2019s HOW pigs ended up with such low fat content: it wasn\u2019t small farmers who figured out the genetics.\nDo these farmers have families? Sure. Do they go to church? Sure. But they\u2019re essentially caretakers who have to use the companies\u2019 production model, in which animals are commodities to be controlled. \u201cFactory\u201d is an apt-enough analogy for a system that profits handsomely from treating sentient creatures like widgets, even if individual farmers are part of that system and don\u2019t always share in those profits. And the existence of some small farms that don\u2019t interact with Tyson or Smithfield is not a valid argument that factory farms don\u2019t exist.\nWhile I appreciate that there are more humane animal farms, let\u2019s be honest. The great majority are sites of routinized mistreatment, cruelty and even moral horror. Add to this practices like clear-cutting rainforest and driving other species into extinction to raise cattle, or standardized and irresponsible overuse of antibiotics\u2014the list of objective problems with factory farming is immense and serious\u2014and you have assume that we as a society have made a series of wrong turns. Indeed, factory farming is unsustainable as currently practiced. Books, websites, and various media that examine the problems with factory farming are readily available.\nMs. Patsche must assume that her audience was largely born yesterday.\nSubmitted by Wanda Patsche on 06/03/2014 - 08:56 pm.\nIt\u2019s apparent that no matter what I say, I will not change your mind. So we will have to agree to disagree. But I find it hard to understand how you can write such things without ever stepping a foot on my farm. I will just leave it at that.\nNot Ridiculous At All\nMs. Patsche, you may not change the mind of the original poster, but this is a public forum and there are other people (such as me) who are reading your posts. This is your opportunity to explain your position, educate the public, and prove to them that your good stewards. You won\u2019t accomplish that goal by crossing your arms and getting all grumpy with a person or two who disagrees with you. Be positive, listen to what they have to say, and take their concerns into account and you\u2019ll reach a lot more people than you will by being cantankerous.\nBesides, I\u2019ve already staked out the crabby old fart position.\nTo be sure, if you want to change people\u2019s minds you have to do more than wave your arms and say \u201churray for our team.\u201d You need to bring facts, figures, and process to the debate as that\u2019s the standard that people have come to expect on MinnPost. If you\u2019re going to go with the \u201cjust trust us\u2013we\u2019re doing fine\u201d method of education, then you\u2019re not going to reach a lot of people. And I get the impression that outreach and education is your primary goal, otherwise you wouldn\u2019t have written the piece in the first place and made the effort to get it published.\nPick up your game a bit and I\u2019m betting you\u2019ll get much better results than simply grousing at people.\nSubmitted by Bruce Tiffany on 06/06/2014 - 10:47 pm.\nMaybe I can offer a different perspective\nI am glad to see people willing to have a conversation about agriculture. It is an extremely complex business and not well understood by people looking in so I\u2019m always glad when people try to learn what is involved with the food system. I am going to weigh in here as I may have a different experience than most people.\nAlso, I want to be very clear, and this part is extremely important. There are as many ways to raise food as there is to eat it and no 2 operations are exactly alike just as even with the same recipe different cooks can prepare a different meal. The systems people use evolve over time for a reason and sometimes those reasons aren\u2019t clear even to others in the same industry. And, sometimes those systems can be tweaked to be even better when someone from the outside offers their perspective.\nI have a diversified farming operation in southwest Minnesota. We do not have hogs now or plan on raising pigs again, but I was extremely thankful for the pigs when we did raise them. It is one reason we survived the late 1980s and 90s. I am really a sheep person at heart, but the hogs filled a very important niche for our family.\nWe had a very small farrow to finish hog operation where we were able to use all of our older buildings to the maximum. We used bedding, pitchforks and 5 gallon pails. We used the latest genetics for the sows and AI bred them. We had good weaning and marketing percentages by industry standards and had a steady cash flow. But, after a few years we found by having multiple age pigs on the same farmstead we had trouble keeping diseases under control so we quit farrowing and bought feeder pigs from another local producer that only wanted to farrow and not finish his own pigs.\nSo, for the non farmers out there, the pluses for farrow to finish is you have all the risks and all the rewards and all the work 365 days a year. Not a bad thing to be in control of the whole thing, but one of the drawbacks is that the disease cycles never get broken so it takes more and more veterinary work, and eventually the production goes down. Feeding a new group at a time as all in and all out, breaks the cycles and allows for disinfecting. Thereby reducing veterinary expenses and eliminating a lot of antibiotic use. Bottom line, healthier pigs = better product\nThen, we were approached by another local farmer with older facilities. He like us were using bedding, a pitchfork and 5 gallon pails for carrying feed. He was planning on raising pigs for the Nyman Ranch system and wondered if we would feed the pigs at our place after he weaned them.\nYou may have heard of Nyman Ranch. Basically, the premise of the business is raise animals in a comfortable and environmentally friendly way with a strict protocol for every facet of the production. And in return, they would guarantee a higher market price for the added work. To be chosen for raising pigs for this market, the first thing you had to do was provide a sample of pork to be evaluated for eating experience. They first anf foremost wanted good tasting pork. One of the main customers for the pork was Chipoltle. So we did this for perhaps 10 years. I am thankful for the opportunity and the income, but I have to tell you, there are MAJOR flaws in raising pigs this way.\nThe basic problems probably came from people coming up with the protocols that have never raised pigs. The basis was to present to the public a product where they could make claims about the way in which it was raised. It sounds great, but it\u2019s the details that were faulty. They were basically green washing to get a higher market price. And, they had to get a higher price to makeup for the inefficiencies. So, if you are still with me, I will list several of the biggest issues with this system and offer an alternative.\nThe single biggest problem that in the end killed the program was you were not allowed to dock the tails. On the surface, this doesn\u2019t sound so bad, but pigs are pigs no matter how you raise them and eventually someone would start biting tails. It is a learned habit and when a pig squeals others go to see why and eventually if the perpetrator was not removed more and more would join in.\nBecause this is designed for smaller operations, there aren\u2019t enough numbers to justify different pens for males and females and several different sizes of each. So, counter to what people would expect, it was almost always a smaller than average female that would start the nibbling. The problem isn\u2019t just a matter of discomfort for a tail, but it opens a wound that leads to an infection that can easily travel to the spine and the back leg joints and quite quickly you have a pigs that doesn\u2019t move as easily, and then is more irritable and then gets picked on even more. Because the Nyman system would not allow the use of antibiotics, any wound or illness or infection would have to be left un treated or marketed through different channels. They would slaughter pigs with swollen joints etc, The Nyman protocol required a certain amount of square feet per pig, bedding, open lot to roam. They suggested giving the pigs toys to play with, more bedding, and more space, but pigs are a lot like people and every now and then , they would just pick out someone they don\u2019t like and pick on them.\nAnother downfall of the Nyman system is the seasonality of the supply. They had a number of producers in southern Iowa and Missouri that would pasture raise pigs, but that didn\u2019t give them a year around supply so they really needed people up here willing to raise pigs year around. People eat year around so it requires a supply of pigs year around.\nIn the end, the whole ting fell apart. Supply dwindled in part because oreating a pitchfork and 5 gallon pail and using a lot of unpaid family labor is not a sustainable model. The fact of the matter is, everyone in the whole supply chain needs to make some money and there were too many inefficiencies in the system to keep it going.\nFrom a pigs perspective, I would have to say compared to pigs in a modern finishing building, maybe 25% of the time my pigs were probably happier, 25% of the time they were equally as happy as those in modern buildings, and 50% of the time, the pigs in modern well managed buildings are better off. The hardest part of older buildings is hot weather. Cold weather is easier because they can choose to keep dry in the bedding, but in hot weather, they are very uncomfortable especially when you add the heat of the required deep bedding.\nModern finishing systems take care of the heating, cooling, wet, and dry conditions. They are designed to be all in and all out with same size pigs and only one sex . This allows for more content pigs, not nearly the need for antibiotics, and a steady supply for the market. That way when you go to the store or the restaurant there is something to buy. The other thing, environmentally, the Nyman Ranch type system is not as good as a typical modern system. The carbon footprint of poorer feed efficiency, poorer reproductive efficiency just isn\u2019t acceptable. And, the manure in conventional finishing barns can be easier analyzed and incorporated back into the soil in a much more accurate and environmentally responsible way.\nI would have to say to be fair, some times when the public expresses opinions about how food is raised, farmers take notice and realize they can change and do things better. But, We have the food system we have for many reasons and if we have the public demanding changes that are not well thought out, there will be trade offs.\nKeep up the high quality of discussion and thank you to all the producers and consumers that want to work together to bring out the best.\nWhile it\u2019s true that modern farming techniques help keep animals alive and healthy in adverse weather, let\u2019s not pretend it\u2019s all rainbows and unicorns. There\u2019s a middle option between keeping them inside all the time and keeping them outside all the time: let them roam in or out as they please.\nMs. Patsche is being more than a little obtuse if, gosh, she just can\u2019t seem to understand what issues people could possibly have with the current farm system. As Matt and Eric pointed out above, there are the crowded conditions, overuse of antibiotics, massive cesspools, and on and on. To that I would add the product they\u2019re producing, to be uncharitable, sucks.\nThese animals are bread for certain characteristics, such as low fat, large breasts, and so on, but they forgot the most important item of all food: flavor. I would much rather pay a couple of bucks more for grass feed beef or a heritage tomato than this mass produced cardboard they\u2019re passing off as food these days.\nMy motto is if you\u2019re going to ingest the calories, at least make sure they\u2019re delicious.\nUsually I buy the pepper rubbed bacon from Whole Foods, but last year I was low on bacon for a recipe for a dinner party and ran over to Cub real quick to pick some up. When i tried to fry up the bacon I found it wouldn\u2019t fry on the griddle but simply boiled instead. It was injected with so much water that even laying flat out on the griddle it wouldn\u2019t fry like normal bacon. I never did get it crispy and just ended up throwing the crap out.\nI don\u2019t know if that\u2019s the kind of product Ms. Patsche and friends are raising, but if it is they can send the rubbish off to the McDonalds crowd to wallow in. I\u2019ll stick with something that\u2019s actually good to eat, thank you very much.\nThanks Todd for your comments. Yes our hogs are bred for certain characteristics that Hormel (the meat packer we sell to) wants for their customers. I can tell you that we eat the same pork that we sell. And we have compliments about our pork all the time. In fact, I can\u2019t keep bacon in my freezer because of my family wants as much as they can get.\nSubmitted by donna fern on 06/03/2014 - 03:00 pm.\nwrong picture. let\u2019s go into this romantic factory farm\nthis is a nostalgia piece that is an attempt to romanticize the production of pork on a factory scale. no, you are not farmers of old, that was over in the \u201980s. ask around.\nmodern factory farming is abusive and does not produce \u201cbetter care and a healthier animal\u201d. this phrase is used by pork producers in reference to their ability to raise large numbers of pigs without the extended costs of custom feed and pig loss due to illness.\npigs are smart and raising them confined in factory farms makes them crazy so they try to bite themselves (cutting if you will). producers are confining them to smaller and smaller spaces to minimize this problem, which also saves on the heating and cooling. also, many of these \u201cfarms\u201d have irresponsible practices regarding their sewage, which often causes runoff that pollutes local water sources and can cause fish kill and other health hazards.\nlets looks inside the \u201cbarn\u201d and show a few more pictures. then let us all have a discussion of what \u201cbetter care and a healthier animal\u201d really are.\nSubmitted by Karl Struck on 06/03/2014 - 08:37 pm.\nFarms are romantic, I think I\u2019m in love\u2026\nThanks to Wanda and thanks to MinnPost for publishing this article. Always pleasant to read the comments on these articles. might I suggest a title for all these comments \u201cAllow me to pass my ethical judgement against you.\u201d\nNothing gets you lefties more riled up than the production of Hormel Black Label Bacon. Might a make a suggestion to also try some Compart family Duroc pork? One taste might change your mind!\nI\u2019m not a farmer myself but have lots of pride in Nicollet county\u2019s many great pork producers. Some of the nation\u2019s tastiest meats are made right here.\nRomantic Farms\nYou are so right Karl! I know some of the Comparts and they do a really great job in their pork! We sell our hogs to Hormel and I couldn\u2019t be prouder! Thanks again!\nSubmitted by Debra Johnson on 06/03/2014 - 10:57 pm.\nThank you for your article. Farming is not easy, even now in this day and age. The animals are being raised for a reason and that is for harvest and the farmer wants to do it as well as possible so he has a good product. I shop at all sorts of stores-Super Value, Walmart, Target and try to get my meat on sale and also for taste and I also watch my brands. If I do not like it the store will hear from me and I get a coupon or money back. These stores would not keep buying products if the products they were selling kept getting returned and not tasting good. Keep up the good work Minnesota hog farmers!!!\nAlso I want to add that we are very fortunate to buy affordable meat thanks to these efficient farmers.\nSubmitted by Caleigh Wright on 06/03/2014 - 11:23 pm.\nGreat post Ms. Patsche!! I couldn\u2019t have said it better myself. The myth of factory farms is one that gets under my skin too!\nI graduated from college with a degree in Dairy Farm Management. We toured a lot of farms while in school and I can honestly say that not one was a factory farm. I\u2019ve never even SEEN a factory farm!!\nMy family\u2019s farm has been in our family for four generations. As our family grew, our farm grew to support the family. My great grandfather started the farm back in the 50\u2019s with approximately 50 milking cows. We currently milk about 700 cows with a total herd count of 1400. The fools that have commented above (except for Karl), seem to be making opinions about things they know nothing about, while they are behind the comfort of their computer with a full belly I\u2019m sure. I bet they weren\u2019t complaing about our nation\u2019s farmers as they were eating their supper.\nI think a little less screen time and a little more farm time would do them some good. If they were to actually visit a modern farm to see how we do things and learn why we do them their eyes would be opened to a world they never knew existed. I\u2019m sure they would be astonished at everything that goes into being a farmer in today\u2019s world.\nI\u2019m afraid however that the internet is raising a bunch of mindless creatures who are unable to form their own opinions and can only believe something that comes from the internet. A primary resource, such as a farmer who lives and works with their animals day in and day out surely cannot possibly know as much about farming as the folks on the internet!\nInstead of \u201cresearching\u201d something on the web, you folks would benefit greatly from a real, live farm tour! Go meet a farmer, walk with him/her around the place they spend the vast majority of their time. Be objective and actually listen to what the farmer has to say. Ask questions, and listen to the answers. Have a discussion. But for Pete\u2019s sake don\u2019t take the internet\u2019s word for something! Go find out for yourself!!!\nSubmitted by Kristie Swenson on 06/04/2014 - 11:24 am.\nThis is what I see, too\nWanda, I\u2019m with you. If people visited a farm, they might have a different view of farms. One of our neighbors has a son who is a first-grade teacher in the Cities, and every year, he offers his students and their families the opportunity to visit his family\u2019s farm for a weekend. They also tour other farms in the area, and the farm trip is one of the highlights of the school year for the kids AND parents! Several parents have been repeat attendees with their kids.\nBefore making assumptions about Wanda and her farming operation, I hope that you read some of her other blog posts and get a better sense of her love for farming and passion to share her perspective on agriculture. I know Wanda personally, and while I am not a hog farmer, I know how much effort and care Wanda puts into her farm. While some people may say Wanda is \u201cromanticizing pork production\u201d, Wanda has accurately portrayed the farmers and the farm country that we live in. We love our farms, and we rely on our farms for our livelihood. If we mistreat our animals or the environment, we end up hurting ourselves.\nSubmitted by Lindsay Hotmire on 06/12/2014 - 08:03 am.\nAs a consumer and a neighbor to these types of farms, there\u2019s a social aspect that Ms. Patsche doesn\u2019t discuss. And I think that\u2019s one of the largest issues at stake. A agricultural research scientist and I discuss those issues here. http://lindsayandytalk.com/familyfarmsorfactoryfarms/\nTo Matt, Eric, and Todd\nYour perspectives are way off base. First off all the hogs that go through todays modern farming systems are happier, healthier and are fed less antibiotics and chemicals than any raised in any other system. I think some of the previous posters in this thread have already shown than and proven that the current system is more humane to the livestock. Second, what cesspool? That\u2019s called a manure pit and used to fertilize crops and create healthier soil. If you didn\u2019t apply it to the crops the soil would not be nearly as healthy. Manure has been proven by science to be a benefit to soil health. Third, yes a lot of the fat has been removed from pork due to genetics but you are way off on the reason why. The public (aka you) has demanded a leaner product and the industry responded. The pork today is leaner and better tasting than it used to be. If you don\u2019t think it is then you probably don\u2019t really remember what it used to be like. If you want someone to bash leave the family farmer out of it when they are just trying to make a living off the land. The market isn\u2019t up to them and they largly have no choice but to market with large corporations. Bash the cargills of the world that control the market and have created this system not the family farmers. These are not factories but are small farms owned by the families that live there. If they were factories the families would live in town and go to the farm to work every day. Eric the great majority of farms are not about mistreatment, cruelty and horror. Only the HSUS agenda is about that. Farming the current way has been proven to be more sustainable than what you are proposing they change to. The majority of farmers changed to this way when they figured that out for themselves. It simply wasn\u2019t sustainable to raise pigs in pasture or older barns and they changed to a sustainable system. Donna, raising hogs in confinement is not what makes them crazy. You have never even seen a hog if you really think that. Pigs are a curious animal and will do things like biting whether they are in confinement or not. None of the naysayers here obviously have any experience of being on a farm evidenced by their posts. Wanda has a right to cross her arms and be grumpy when narrow minded people who think they know it all and really have no experience or expertice chime in.\nI don\u2019t understand why anyone would be against a factory farm anyway. Are they against all factories or just farmers that want to grow their businesses? Let\u2019s face it, we all need goods and services and those come from businesses and factories of all sizes. Why should we be against farms of a certain size? If a farmer wants to get bigger he should be able to just as easily as any other business without having such a negative reaction to it. Leave the negative connotations for something that is actually negative.",

Easily able to be run by a single operator and/or someone with an additional job, the low work load will suit the person with other work commitments or interests. Opportunity also exists to increase the bottom line with very little maintenance being conducted on behalf of owners. Additional work could also be completed on behalf of the Body Corporate, again increasing the net profit. Spacious, modern, well maintained, four bedroom, two and half bathroom townhouse is ideal for a couple or a family. It has a generous yard and is also pet friendly. A large, attached office also provides more than enough space to run an additional outside rent roll. A contract of sale can also be subject to a top up of the agreements, the vendors are more than happy to facilitate this. The current vendors who have been in place for 10 years are motivated to move on, thus, this offer is priced to sell.",

        "raw_content": "Study reveals more evidence that some forms of MS are inherited (18/04/17)\nLess than a year after publishing research identifying a single genetic mutation that caused multiple sclerosis (MS) in two Canadian families, scientists at the University of British Columbia have found a combination of two other mutations in another family that made them highly susceptible to the disease.\nThe \"double gene\" mutation was identified in a large Canadian family with five members diagnosed with MS - all of whom had the DNA abnormality. Two other family members had the same mutation but didn't develop MS, indicating that some other genetic or environmental conditions are still necessary to trigger the disease process.\nThe discovery of this mutation, on top of last year's findings, should help erase doubts that at least some forms of MS are inherited. The prevailing view has been that a combination of many genetic variations causes a slight increase in susceptibility. In this family, individuals with the double gene mutation roughly have a 7-in-10 chance of developing MS, compared to a 1-in-1,000 risk in the general population.\nThese mutations, described in the journal Human Mutation, impair both immune function and phagocytosis, the process by which cells eliminate debris and pathogens.\n\"This is the first time that problems with phagocytosis have been linked to MS, and provides scientists with a better understanding the disease's origins and targets for developing new treatments,\" said lead author Carles Vilarino-Guell, an Assistant Professor of Medical Genetics who collaborated with colleagues at Australia's Florey Institute of Neuroscience and Mental Health.\nThe findings also could be used to screen people with a family history of the disease; an individual who was found to have this mutation could be a candidate for early diagnostic imaging long before symptoms appear, or could opt to reduce environmental risks by taking Vitamin D supplements or quitting smoking.\nCanada has one of the highest rate of MS in the world, for reasons that elude scientists.\nThe double mutation, unlike the single mutation described last year, leads to the more typical \"relapsing-remitting\" form of MS, in which the symptoms come and go. These differences in clinical symptoms suggests that different biological processes are responsible for each type of MS, which could explain why treatments for relapsing-remitting patients are ineffective for people with more debilitating, progressive forms of the disease.",

The plans are designed with the assistance of administrative staff members, as well as local law enforcement, emergency management, and public health officials. The plans, which are regularly reviewed and updated, include procedures to respond to a variety of crisis incidents. School district personnel and students practice drills associated with specific emergencies on a regular basis.\nThe Mt. Lebanon School District administrators consult with local, state, and federal health, safety and emergency personnel to develop and maintain plans for coping with a variety of emergency situations. The District's Safety and Security Committee, made up of school administrators and staff, representatives of the Mt. Lebanon Police Department, Mt. Lebanon Fire Department, and MRTSA meet during the school year to discuss crisis response, management, prevention and communication. Members of the committee are NIMS certified and attend state and local safety and security training sessions annually.\nIf you have any questions about your school's safety responses, please contact your school principal.\nCall 9-1-1 to report suspicious incidents or behavior.\nImportant Emergency Information for Parents\nEach school in the Mt. Lebanon School District has a safety and security plan. These plans are designed with the expertise of administrative staff members, local law enforcement, emergency management and public health officials.\nThe plans include procedures to respond to a variety of situations. In general, each plan involves the designation of a crisis management team, development of evacuation, shelter-in-place and ALICE procedures, preparation of a portable critical response kit that contains key information and supplies, designation of one or more appropriate evacuation sites, provisions for training personnel and updating the plan, checklists for dealing with specific types of incidents and resources for help before, during and after an event. All Mt. Lebanon school plans have been reviewed within the last twelve months, and school crisis teams have received training.\nParent Notification and Emergency Information Resources\nIn the event of a school emergency, parents will receive a phone call from the District's Emergency Phone Alert System to the primary phone number listed with the school. Your caller ID will display \u201cMt. Lebanon School District\u201d and the District\u2019s main number of 412-344-2000. Parents who have entered their email information in the Dashboard will also receive email updates. The success of this system depends on accurate contact information obtained from school records. If your information has changed, please update your phone numbers in the Dashboard.\nAdditional Resources for School Emergency Information:\n\u00b7 Twitter: @MTLSD\n\u00b7 Facebook: www.facebook.com/MTLSD\n\u00b7 Push notifications through the MTL APP (Available for iOS and Android)\nParent Emergency Procedures\nIn order for our emergency response plans to be effective, we must depend on the cooperation and assistance of many people, such as local police and fire departments. We also depend upon the parents of our students to support our efforts. Your cooperation is vital to helping us protect the safety and welfare of all children and school employees. Therefore, we ask parents to observe the following procedures during a crisis situation:\nCheck for a call from the MTLSD Phone Alert system. A phone call will be sent from the District to notify parents of a school emergency. Make sure your contact numbers are up to date.\nCheck your email. Email notification will be available to those users who have entered their email addresses in the Dashboard.\nKeep your contact information updated on the Dashboard and in the school office.\nTalk to your children. Emphasize how important it is for them to follow instructions from their teachers and school officials during an emergency.\nIf you see something, say something and encourage your children to do the same.\nDo not come to the school or evacuation location until you are instructed to do so. It may be necessary to keep the streets and parking lot clear for emergency vehicles.\nDo not telephone the school. We understand and respect your concern, but it is essential that the telephone system be available for emergency communications.\nA.L.I.C.E. School Safety Program\nA.L.I.C.E. is a school safety program developed to offer additional options for students and staff when dealing with a violent intruder situation. The letters A.L.I.C.E. are an acronym that stands for: Alert, Lockdown, Inform, Counter, and Evacuate. These five components form the basis of the program\u2019s age-appropriate training.\nThe school district, in partnership with the Mt. Lebanon Police Department, implemented the A.L.I.C.E. program with staff and students in 2015. Age-appropriate training for all District students is based on the A.L.I.C.E. program. This program informs the procedures the District uses for drills that take place in the schools during the school year.\nFor more information about our school safety programs and A.L.I.C.E, watch a video, Keeping Our Students Safe presented by the Mt. Lebanon Police Department and District administrators at a parent forum to introduce the ALICE program held on December 2014.\nPARENTS and GUARDIANS ARE ENCOURAGED TO CONTACT THEIR CHILD'S SCHOOL COUNSELOR FOR ADDITIONAL RESOURCES and assistance.",

        "raw_content": "Boots and shoes under the sea are done with a whiting.\nI love shoes. I kind of always have. Not necessarily wearing them, mind you, just having them and seeing them. I mean, I love to get dressed up (or not) and wear the perfect shoe for that moment, but as soon as I get home, the shoes are off. The boys have picked up this habit, unfortunately, so there's a constant pile of shoes by the front door, much to DH's chagrin. I know the argument that it's better for your family's health not to track the dirt and residue from your shoes through your home, but we mostly do it because we're lazy and want to free our piggies as soon as we cross the threshold.\nAnd the thing is, I don't have to have expensive shoes. I won't buy super cheap shoes, either, but I'm not a Manolo Whore. Those are stunning shoes, don't get me wrong!, but I'm too practical to own a $600 (+/-) pair of shoes. I need comfort, certainly, because I'm unlikely to wear a pair of shoes again if they hurt my feet or are ill-fitting. I'm not like the Grimm Brothers' ugly stepsisters, cutting off bits of my feet to make a shoe fit. I'm also partial to my bare feet enough that I won't shove them into shoes that will make them misshapen or hideous. Nothing grosses me out quite like gnarled old lady feet, with hammer toes and bunions, especially when they're on someone under the age of 40. If your shoes make your toes point at 45 degrees from their genetic position, please hide your feet from public view. Seriously. That's just disgusting.\nBecause I'm on my foot soap box, I'm going to continue this digression for just a moment. I'm a big Amazon girl at 5'11, and I have appropriately-sized feet. Guess what? Any woman over the height of 5'9 is almost certain to wear a size 9 or larger. Angeline Jolie wears a 9 or 10, depending on the shoe. Paris Hilton wears an 11. Sometimes I've been forced to fight a drag queen for the perfect pair of shoes. I've even been known to loan my shoes to guys who either lost a bet or just wanted to get their girly on.\nSummer will be here soon, which means sandal season. I love sandal season! If nothing else, it's the perfect excuse for a regular pedicure. And there's not much that makes me happier than a good pedicure. I'm partial to bright, bold colors on my toes, usually metallic hot pink or purple, or the occasional red or blue. I'll do designs sometimes, but I don't usually go for the French or American look. (I'm not opposed to it on principal or anything. It just doesn't suit me personally.)\nBut sandal season opens up a whole new can of potentially-disgusting worms. First of all, trim your damn nails. Those women whose toenails stick out way past the ends of their toes, like creepy long fingernails that have been glued to their feet--UGH! It makes me want to gag. They'll have been stylishly painted, in a multi-colored French pedi with some design on it, which is at least $20 more than the regular pedicure price. Seriously? Any nail tech who doesn't suggest you cut that shit needs to have their license revoked.\nAnd, ladies, if your toes hang off the ends of your shoes, they don't fucking fit! If you're unsure of the size of your feet, have them professionally measured. It's not that hard and just takes a moment. Any woman who's ever had a baby knows there's a chance your feet will change size during pregnancy. If they do, they don't shrink back; it's a permanent change. (Thank God mine didn't change, or I'd be wearing skis everywhere I went.)\nOkay, I think I'm done bitching. I feel much better, by the way.\nDH and I go back and forth about my love of shoes. He was once appalled to learn that I bought a pair of shoes to wear with one specific outfit. \"You don't have anything else to wear them with, except that outfit?\" Well, duh. That's how it works sometimes. You start with a great accessory and build the look around it. I can always find a fabulous outfit to wear with shoes I already have. It's much, much more difficult to find an amazing shoe.\nShoes are often like a perfect little emotional accessory. If you see a pair across the room and they whisper to you of their adorableness, it's like shoe kismet. You just gotta try 'em. If you do and you love them like they say you will, they can completely change your whole outlook on life when you wear them. It's like the feeling of new shoes (Don't even get me started!), but it happens every time you wear them. If you ignore the pleadings of the adorable shoes and leave the store without at least trying them on, it will haunt you for the rest of your life. Any time you see a similar shoe, or you're in that store again, you'll remember how you almost held the perfect shoe in the palm of your hand. The one that got away, and all that jazz.\nThankfully, my feet have stopped growing. Shoes I buy now will still fit me in ten years. In fact, one of my favorite pairs of shoes are these black wedges with buttons that I've had for twelve years. They still look new and fit beautifully. And if the shoe is special enough, it will never, ever go out of your own personal style, regardless of trending in fashion.\nI cleaned out my closet last weekend and got rid of some shoes I didn't love anymore. I wasn't ever going to wear them again, so they've been banished from my princessdom. I had to make room for the fancy new ones I recently bought. I've also requested a very specific pair of shoes for Valentine's Day, but I don't want to jinx it. I'll share them when the time is right.\nMy vices could be a lot worse, honestly, so DH will just have to deal with it. He has his love of computers and guns, and I have mine of music and shoes. Maybe we'll find a way to combine them. Pink glittery, strappy sandals are okay for the range, right? Good! He can borrow them any time he wants.\nPosted by StephQJ on Saturday, February 05, 2011 in Muchness, Shoes | Permalink | Comments (3) | TrackBack (0)",

The Friends of Family Planning Martha\u2019s Vineyard Art Show, in its 28th year, has become a much-anticipated tradition, offering an opportunity to welcome back old friends, check in with year-rounders, and see what the vibrant Island art community has been up to over the winter.\nThe show will be open to the public on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, May 26, 27, and 28. The festivities will kick off on Thursday evening, May 26, with an opening-night reception featuring wine (donated by Our Market), hors d\u2019oeuvres by Herring Run Catering, and music by Jeremy Berlin.\nThis year, more than 90 artists will participate, showing everything from photography and painting to clothing and jewelry, to taxidermy art by Janet Messineo, and large steel sculptures by Jay Lagemann. The price range makes the show all-inclusive. People can pick up a handmade card or unframed print, or walk home with a painting by an established Vineyard artist.\nWell-known Island artists like Wendy Weldon, Alison Shaw, Lanny McDowell, and Peigi Cole-Jolliffe have been part of the show for decades, while every year new artists are added to the growing roster. All of the participants donate a minimum of 50 percent of the profits to Martha\u2019s Vineyard Family Planning. Some, like photographer Bob Avakian, traditionally donate 100 percent. \u201cIt\u2019s exciting to see that it\u2019s growing and more people are entering,\u201d says Friends of Family Planning MV vice president Nili Beth Morgan.\nRight now, more than ever, the Martha\u2019s Vineyard Family Planning clinic needs the community\u2019s help. \u201cPeople are certainly worried about what\u2019s going to happen in these uncertain times,\u201d says Ms. Morgan. \u201cIt\u2019s so encouraging that people on the Island are worried about the political climate and are as concerned as we are.\u201d\nThe goal of M.V. Family Planning is to promote gynecological, reproductive, and sexual health care. The clinic, established in 1978, has experienced phenomenal growth in the past few years, and now offers a wide range of clinical, educational, and advocacy programs for both women and men. Among the services offered are STD screenings, morning-after pills, and a vasectomy reimbursement program.\nThe Friends of Family Planning have been helping to support the clinic for more than 30 years. Just this month, the group was able to make the final mortgage payment on the State Road building that houses the clinic. \u201cWe hurried that process along, so that Family Planning will have a permanent home,\u201d Ms. Morgan said. \u201cNow we can start doing some more outreach and fundraising to make the clinic better and more accessible for everyone. Our initiatives include sponsoring equipment and repairs. Our goals of supporting the clinic have become more urgent in what looks to be lean times in terms of funding. We just want to make sure the clinic is here for our community. The numbers in terms of people using the services has continued to grow as access to healthcare has opened up.

        "title": "Seal of confession on the court docket | National Catholic Reporter",
        "raw_content": "Seal of confession on the court docket\nCan the content of a confession be revealed in court? Must a priest report to police information about the abuse of a minor that he hears in confession? Can a priest reveal what he was told in confession if the penitent gives him permission?\nThese issues are being debated because of a court case involving the diocese of Baton Rouge, La.\nThe case involves the 2008 confession of a then-14-year-old girl, Rebecca Mayeux. She says she told Fr. Jeff Bayhi, pastor of St. John the Baptist Church in Zachary, La., on three different occasions that she was kissed and fondled by a now-dead lay member of the parish.\nAccording to the Times-Picayune, the parents of the minor say the priest in the confessional told the girl to deal with it herself because \"too many people would be hurt.\" The girl said, \"He just said, 'This is your problem. Sweep it under the floor.' \"\nHer parents are now suing the priest and the diocese for not reporting the allegation to the police. According to The Advocate, the woman \"testified in a deposition that she did not understand the nature of the sacrament of confession and did not intend for Bayhi to keep what she told him a secret.\"\nThe diocese argued that the woman should not be allowed to testify about her confession in court because it would put the priest in the legally untenable position of having to accept her version of events or break the seal and face automatic excommunication.\nSo far, the courts have gone back and forth on the issue.\nThe parents won in District Court only to see the decision reversed by the Louisiana Circuit Court of Appeals, which said a priest is a mandatory reporter only on matters learned outside of confession. The testimony about what happened in confession would therefore be irrelevant.\nThe state's highest court overruled the Count of Appeals and said the woman could testify and that it would be up to the District Court to determine \"whether the communications between the child and the priest were confessions per se and whether the priest obtained knowledge outside the confessional that would trigger his duty to report.\"\nThe diocese appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court, which declined to hear the case. This means the case is back in District Court.\nThus, under Louisiana law, it appears a priest does not have to report what he learns in confession about the sexual abuse of a minor, but he does have to report what he learns outside confession. It is now up to the District Court to determine whether the communications were confessions. This could be a problem because the priest clearly believes that they were confessions and that he cannot talk about them.\nThe diocese also argues that the court should not be deciding theological issues such as whether or not a communication was a sacramental confession.\n\"This matter cuts to the core of the Catholic faith, and for a civil court to inquire as to whether or not a factual situation establishes the sacrament of confession is a clear and unfettered violation of the Establishment Clause of the Constitution of the United States,\" it argued.\nIn response, the plaintiff says the court will be interpreting Louisiana law, not the Catholic faith.\nCan the priest testify about the confession if the penitent gives her permission?\nAlthough cases are rare, this is not the first time the issue has come up. In a 52-page article in 1994 volume of The Jurist, Fr. Dexter Brewer examines the question in detail. My analysis is heavily dependent on his article.\nFirst, let's look at state law.\nThe rules of evidence in state courts are set by state law. Almost all states have some provision regarding the seal of confession, but most describe it as a right of the penitent, not the priest. If the penitent waives his or her right, the priest must testify. This is similar to the rules for lawyers about revealing something told to them by their clients. A few states also give the priest the right to refuse to testify even if the penitent releases him, but these are the exception.\nThe diocese is arguing that the priest has a First Amendment right to refuse to testify, but this issue has never been ruled on by the courts.\n\"A foundational doctrine of the Roman Catholic Church for thousands of years mandates that the seal of confession is absolute and inviolable. Pursuant to his oath to the church, a priest is compelled never to break that seal,\" Catholic News Service reports the diocese saying. \"Neither is a priest allowed to admit that someone went to confession to him. If necessary, the priest would have to suffer a finding of contempt in a civil court and suffer imprisonment rather than violate his sacred duty and violate the seal of confession and his duty to the penitent.\"\nNeedless to say, such conflicts between penitents and confessors do not come up frequently. However, in 1983, a priest was found in contempt of court in Massachusetts for not testifying after being released by a penitent. He was assessed a nominal fine and released. The absence of his testimony appeared to make no difference in the case because when the case was appealed, neither party raised the issue.\nLet's set aside for a moment civil law and look at church law. Is the diocese correct in saying, \"Church law does not allow either the plaintiff [the penitent] or anyone else to waive the seal of confession.\"\nI am afraid that it is a little more complicated than that.\nIn describing the seal of confession, Canon 983 of the 1983 Code of Canon Law states, \"The sacramental seal is inviolable; therefore, it is a crime for a confessor in any way to betray a penitent by word or in any other manner or for any reason.\"\nThe 1983 code (and its 1917 predecessor) says nothing about whether a penitent can release a priest from the seal of confession. When the code is silent, canonists look to see what scholars and commentators have said.\nAfter a thorough review of the literature, Father Brewer concluded: \"While a few theologians and canonists would maintain the penitent cannot release the confessor from the obligation of the seal of confession, the weight of theological and canonical opinion holds that the penitent can release the confessor.\"\nThis consensus goes all the way back to the 13th century after the Fourth Lateran Council forbade the breaking of the seal of confession in 1215. Almost immediately after the council, theologians and canonists raised questions about the ability of penitents to waive this right. They concluded that penitents could waive their right to privacy, and canon law never contradicted this position.\nThe wording of Canon 983 supports this view by using the phrase \"betray a penitent\"; a penitent would not be betrayed if he or she gave permission to the priest to speak.\nThe minority view argues that the seal of confession is not just for the penitent, but also for the community, and therefore the penitent on his or her own cannot waive it. Scandal could also occur if people misunderstand and think the seal has been broken. There is also the danger that the penitent could be coerced into granting permission. And what will a jury conclude if a prosecutor draws attention to the fact that a defendant has refused to release the confessor to speak? In some states this is allowed, while in others prosecutors cannot do this.\nDespite all these problems, the weight of theological and canonical opinion supports the right of penitents to allow their confessor to reveal what they told him in confession.\nBut does that mean that a priest must comply? No. Under canon law, he cannot be compelled to reveal what was said even if the penitent permits it. He may in conscience believe the consensus is wrong and the minority view is right. Or he may believe that in a particular case, the penitent is being coerced or that there is a danger of scandal.\nIn any case, the Baton Rouge penitent is now an adult and has clearly waived her right of secrecy. The preponderance of theological and canonical opinion says she can do this and the priest would not be breaking the seal if he testified, but he cannot be compelled to testify. State law says she can waive her right to secrecy and that the priest can be compelled to testify.\nHow will all of this play out in court? Here are some possible scenarios:\nFather Bayhi may be called to testify and then refuse to testify on the grounds that his First Amendment rights trump state law. If he refuses and is found in contempt, this case may once again work its way all the way up to the U.S. Supreme Court.\nThe Mayeux family's lawyer may ultimately decide not to call the priest and instead let the court rely solely on the testimony of Rebecca Mayeux. Why compel a reluctant witness to testify if he might say things that would hurt your case or might tie you up in expensive constitutional litigation for years to come?\nThe diocese may change its mind and, following the canonical consensus, allow Father Bayhi to testify.\nOr the diocese may settle the case out of court before the priest testifies.\nAny of these outcomes is possible.\nBesides the legal issues, there is also a pastoral issue. We only know Miss Mayeux's version of the events, but if the confessor truly told the child to \"sweep it under the floor,\" then the priest failed in his duty to the child and the church. He should have encouraged the child to tell the police or to talk to her parents, a teacher, a counselor, or someone who could report it to the police. Or he could have suggested that she give him the same information outside of the confessional, which would have allowed him to report it.\nThis points to a much more common problem in the church: bad confessors who demean and harangue penitents rather than convey to them the compassion, forgiveness, and love of God. Catholics should not have to play Russian roulette when approaching the confessional. But here again the church faces an impossible dilemma: How can it supervise the work of confessors without knowing what is said in confession?\nAccountability | Seal of confession on the court docket\nTop Anglican calls for lifting seal of confessional in child abuse cases\nArchbishops call for 'penance, purification' to rebuild, renew church\nLouisiana court challenges confessional secrecy\nPope\u2019s quotes: Confession",

        "raw_content": "How Not To Be Like Jeremy Clarkson\nHome / nethervoice / Articles / How Not To Be Like Jeremy Clarkson\nLast Sunday, the BBC premiered the 23rd season of Top Gear with a new team of presenters. The program drew disappointing ratings in the UK and abroad. This had a lot to do with the absence of star presenter Jeremy Clarkson, who was forced to leave the show. More about that later.\nBecause Clarkson was such a dominating presence on Top Gear, he might have thought that the program wouldn\u2019t stand a chance without him. Perhaps the critics and viewers proved him right. After all, there\u2019s only one Jeremy Clarkson. This had me wondering\u2026\nDo you ever think you\u2019re indispensable?\nDo you believe your clients, your readers, or your viewers can\u2019t live without you?\nUnfortunately, the reality for most independent contractors is that they can be tossed out any time. The price of freelance freedom is often paid in uncertainty and stress.\nIn theory, this uncertainty should at least be partially compensated by a higher paycheck. But you know as well as I do that we have to fight for decent rates.\nSmall fish in a big ocean don\u2019t have a lot of leverage in the labor market, unless they operate as a school. But what about the big fish? How far are they allowed to go?\nINFLATED EGOS\nSome people, especially in the entertainment industry, seem to think they are untouchable, and they behave accordingly.\nLike spoiled children.\nOver the years they have gathered a loyal following, and have amassed a considerable fortune. Whenever they enter a room, people ooh and aah, and ask for autographs and selfies.\nWhen these celebs say something that isn\u2019t even remotely funny, people laugh hysterically. Some are suddenly seen as \u201cthought leaders,\u201d \u201ctrend setters,\u201d or as the sexiest men/women alive.\nPhotographers will pray or pay for a pose and a smile. Companies fight for the opportunity to stuff backstage gift bags, hoping for a tweet of acknowledgment or better still: a product endorsement.\nAnd so, the people who have everything they could possibly wish for, get even more without paying a dime. Those who aren\u2019t as fortunate, can only hope, dream, and drool.\nBut fame is fickle, and recognition can be a double-edged sword.\nThe higher you climb, the lower you can fall. But if your cushion is elastic enough, you may be able to bounce back. Comfortably.\nOn March 25th, 2015, the BBC fired Jeremy Clarkson, one of the presenters of Top Gear. Top Gear is one of the most successful programs in the history of the Beeb, bringing in millions of pounds every year. The car show is one of the biggest factual TV shows in the world with an estimated audience of 350 million in 200 countries. People who don\u2019t even care for cars (myself included) watch Top Gear religiously.\nClarkson\u2019s sacking was self-induced. He was fired for physically and verbally attacking one of the producers because no hot food was provided after a day\u2019s filming. Prior to that, he had been given a final warning because of earlier controversies. \u201cThis time,\u201d said the BBC, \u201ca line was crossed.\u201d Clarkson was dismissed, in spite of the million+ people who had signed an online petition to reinstate him.\nYes, we\u2019re all unique, but no one is irreplaceable, or above the law.\nAs Tony Hall, the BBC\u2019s Director-General, said: \u201cThere cannot be one rule for one and one rule for another dictated by either rank, or public relations and commercial considerations.\u201d\nThe question is: Who will have the last laugh?\nClarkson\u2019s contract was up for renewal anyway, and as soon as he left, other networks in Great Britain started fighting over who could offer the man the most lucrative deal. In the end, Amazon Video won out. Like the Terminator, Clarkson (and fellow-presenters Richard Hammond & James May) will be back, making more money than ever.\nAs much as I deplore what Clarkson did, I wondered if we could learn anything from what happened. Like Clarkson, you and I work with producers and directors all the time. Some of them are very nice people. Others are not. Some make unreasonable demands, crazy requests, and give you a hard time when asked if the check is finally in the mail.\nThere are some big egos in our business, and I\u2019ve seen colleagues suck up to the people with power, and kick those who are lower on the ladder. Here\u2019s something that happened to me while I was working at a radio station.\nOne day, a fellow-presenter lashed out at an assistant because he had given her a glass of water with what looked like a hair in it. The woman exploded, and left the assistant heavily hyperventilating in the hallway. But when the director of the station paid us a surprise visit right after the incident, my angry colleague was suddenly all smiles.\nAfter we had taped our show, I took a good look at the infamous glass of water. A curly, red hair was indeed floating on the surface.\nMy explosive colleague happened to have curly, red hair.\nMost people I\u2019ve worked with seem to have it together. Perhaps this is because invisible voices have a low profile. We don\u2019t have millions of fans, or millions of dollars.\nThose I admire in my industry have certain things in common. They often thrive against the odds. They are loved by colleagues and clients alike. And if you wish to follow in their footsteps, I have a few recommendations for you.\nMy first suggestion is simple: Treat everyone around you with respect; not only the people in power. Even if some co-workers do their very best to push your buttons, you\u2019re not a robot. You can\u2019t control their behavior, but you can choose your response.\nSecondly: Celebrate your achievements, and remember where you came from. You are where you are because people who probably didn\u2019t know you, believed in you, and were kind to you.\nYou made tons of mistakes. We all do, but were they met with punishment or patience? And even if your teachers weren\u2019t always tolerant, don\u2019t use that as an excuse to give others the same treatment you so hated.\nThird: Don\u2019t ever take success for granted. It entitles you to nothing. It has to be earned, and treasured. Over and over again. And what good does it do you, if you make the people around you miserable? They\u2019ll feed you what you want to hear, while spitting out the truth behind your back.\nFourth: Don\u2019t mistake fame for importance, and money for value. Who gives a damn how many followers you have on social media, and how much you have stashed away in your Swiss bank account. Why should we even care about your credentials? All these things do not make you a good person.\nYou should take your work and your fans seriously, but please take yourself with a few grains of salt.\nFifth: If you end up -willingly or unwillingly- being a role model, know that it comes with responsibilities. You are in a privileged position to influence a great number of people who look up to you. Are you going to use that position, or abuse it?\nSixth: Don\u2019t ever ask: \u201cWhat\u2019s in it for me?\u201d The better question is: \u201cWhat can I do today to improve the lives of others without getting anything in return?\u201d It\u2019s the result that matters. Not the reward.\nSeven: Be humble, and be grateful. Every single day.\nSuccess is hard to sustain. One moment you\u2019re the flavor of the month. The next you\u2019re yesterday\u2019s news. Clients may seem ungrateful, but that doesn\u2019t mean you should be.\nAppreciate what you have right now, and realize that you couldn\u2019t have done it without the help of others. No matter how hard you\u2019ve worked for it, and how much you think you deserve it, feel confident without being cocky. Big egos don\u2019t make amigos.\nNo one is irreplaceable, but at least for one project, one gig, or for one show, you were chosen. That means something.\nIf you\u2019re lucky, you can make it last.\nIf it doesn\u2019t, enjoy the ride, but hopefully not in a Jeremy Clarkson sort of way.\nphoto credit: Jeremy Clarkson and James May Top Gear presenters with my Lancia Beta Coupe Stanford Hall 2008 IMG_6342 via photopin (license)\nby Paul Strikwerda in Articles, Career, Freelancing, Journalism & Media, Social Media",

        "raw_content": "Dundee mayor under fire\nBy DONNA KELLYNews Chief\nDUNDEE \u2014 Town Council members want answers from Mayor Linda Riner-Mizell over her use of the town credit card to pay for a trip to a Colorado conference and her subsequent explanations of her actions.\nSome council members are questioning Riner-Mizell's honesty because her story about who authorized the trip and who was responsible for paying the $2,073 it cost apparently has changed several times.\nIn the end, the mayor took out a loan to repay the town for the trip to a National League of Cities convention.\nCouncilman Sam Pennant said he thinks the council has been patient with Riner-Mizell but he wants some answers.\nFor her part, Riner-Mizell describes the situation as a misunderstanding and maintains she has done nothing improper.\n\"Municipal government is an institution I have a high amount of respect for,\" she said. \"As a leader and mayor of the town of Dundee, it is my responsibility to provide leadership for this government that is unquestionable.\n\"I deeply regret that there are concerns or any appearance of impropriety,\" she said.\nRiner-Mizell's actions will be discussed at a special council meeting at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday at the Public Safety Building, 105 Center St.\nThe controversy centers on a Nov. 30 to Dec. 4 trip to Denver, Colo., that Riner-Mizell took to the league's Congress of Cities and Exposition.\nWhen asked about charging the trip on the town's credit card, she told town officials the trip had been authorized by the Ridge League of Cities. She was going in her capacity as president of the league.\nShe also told town officials the league would pay for the trip. When town officials discovered the league had never approved the trip, Riner-Mizell ultimately repaid the town out of her own pocket.\nAccording to interviews and public records, this is what happened:\nMartin Munger, the town's finance director, said Riner-Mizell asked him for the town's credit card Nov. 11.\n\"She came to see me and told me she was going to book the conference and Andy (Stewart, the town manager) approved for her to go to the conference,\" Munger said. \"She said Andy approved it. I had no reason not to believe her.\"\nMunger said he gave the card to Riner-Mizell to book the trip. Although in the past, when she went to conferences paid for with the town's credit card, the trips had been booked by Munger with Riner-Mizell in attendance.\nConfirmation sent by the National League of Cities to Riner-Mizell indicate she booked the conference at 1:24 a.m. Nov. 16, five days after getting the card from Munger and more than 12 hours before Stewart said he first heard about the conference.\nRiner-Mizell, however, maintains she spoke with Stewart twice, on the day she picked up the card and the day it was returned.\nBut Stewart said he was on vacation in Canada when she received the card and Munger said the card was returned to him by Riner-Mizell's husband, Kevin.\nVice Mayor Randy Dowd said the matter was never brought to the council for approval. He found out about it when Riner-Mizell was in Colorado and he was asked to sign checks for bills in her absence.\nThis led Dowd to ask questions about who approved the trip expense and clarification of the town's credit card policy.\nWhen his questions were unanswered and Munger's three requests for receipt information relating to the conference were fruitless, Dowd brought up the matter during the council meetings Feb. 8 and last Tuesday.\nOn Feb. 8, Riner-Mizell told the council the Ridge League of Cities would reimburse the town for the $2,073 expense and she would receive the check the following Thursday evening.\nDowd again raised the issue last Tuesday when the town had not yet received reimbursement. He asked why the town had paid for a trip sponsored by the Ridge League of Cities, who had approved the expenses and when the town would be repaid.\nRiner-Mizell's response, as per tapes of the meeting, was, \"I did have a check from them, unfortunately, they made it to me, so I am bringing cash in to Andy.\"\nShe indicated she would bring the cash in the following day around noon.\nOn Thursday, Randy Dowd spoke with Ruthanne Stonewall, executive director of the Ridge League of Cities, who said she had no record of paying any of Riner-Mizell's expenses for the trip and documented this in writing in a fax addressed to Dowd.\nOn Friday, Stonewall said the Ridge League of Cities had not issued a check to the town or Riner-Mizell to cover the trip expenses. In fact, the organization's board of directors had not discussed or voted on the matter.\nStonewall's fax to Dowd, in addition to comments made by Riner-Mizell during Tuesday's meeting, led several council members to request the special meeting.\nRiner-Mizell said Saturday the check she was referring to during Tuesday's meeting was one she received from a bank for a loan she took out to repay the town. She didn't specify the name of the bank or the amount of the loan.\nDowd said Saturday the incident has brought to light deficiencies in the town's credit card procedures and he wants improvements to be made. He also questions whether or not Riner-Mizell's intended to repay the town for the trip.\n\"When you look at all the evidence from the beginning and the cover-ups, it appears to me that this was her idea from the beginning \u2013 to take this trip and have the town of Dundee pay for it,\" Dowd said.\nCouncilman Rick Johnson said he is anxious to get some answers.\n\"There appeared to be some question about how and when the town was going to be reimbursed the money. I initially felt satisfied with the mayor's statement that she had a check from the Ridge League and that she would be reimbursing the town on Wednesday,\" Johnson said. \"However, contradictions between what she said on Tuesday evening and what the Ridge League executive director said in correspondence received by the town manager several days later has left me no choice but to question several of the mayor's comments.\"\nLike Dowd, Johnson wants to scrutinize the town's credit card and expense reimbursement policies.\n\"We're fully accountable for every cent of the tax payer's money. Not only were they unaccounted for but now there appears to be inconsistencies in reimbursement process,\" he said.\nCouncilwoman Melinda Carden stressed the importance of the town having a credit card policy, which was established during the 2004 hurricanes.\n\"Only two people were authorized to use town credit cards, I believe the city manager and the finance director. We are supposed to be supplied a copy at the next meeting,\" Carden said. \"Evidently the town manager wasn't aware of the policy.\"\nStewart, who was not with the town in 2004, said he could find no record of such a policy.\nCarden said she will form her opinion on the situation once she has seen various related town records.\n\"I want to say that officially I know what Linda said in the council meetings but I've not seen any documentation (about her actions) but I've been told it exists,\" Carden said. \"I am a firm believer in everybody following the rules. If rules have been broken or a violation of ethics made then they need to be dealt with.\"\nPennant said of the mayor: \"She lied some weeks ago saying she was going to be reimbursed by the league. If she had come back and said, \u2018I didn't get the check from the league' if would be different. But instead she lied about that \u2014 she didn't get any money from the league. That's a big problem.\"\nPennant said Riner-Mizell has lost her credibility.\n\"Can we (council members) go on to work with her? When we can we take her seriously? When can we not take her seriously?\" he asked.\n\"For her own sake, for the benefit of Dundee, if I were in her position, I would resign,\" Pennant said.",

        "raw_content": "Governments of Canada and Ontario announce funding for flood mitigation project Fran\u00e7ais\nSUDBURY, ON, Oct. 12, 2018 /CNW/ - Flooding is Canada's costliest and most frequent natural disaster. Today, Paul Lefebvre, Member of Parliament for Sudbury, on behalf of the Minister of Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness, announced $180,000 in federal funding to Ontario under the National Disaster Mitigation Program to better plan for and protect against the effects of flooding.\nThe Government of Canada cost-shares up to 50 per cent of eligible expenses for provincial projects and 75 per cent of eligible expenses for territorial projects. Provincial and territorial authorities may collaborate with, and redistribute funding to, eligible entities such as municipal or other local governments. By utilizing targeted reserves accumulated through the municipal tax levy, the Conservation Sudbury is contributing $180,000 in matching funding for this project.\nThis two-year project, starting in 2018, will support updated floodplain mapping of the Junction Creek watershed \u2013 last updated 38 years ago \u2013 by Conservation Sudbury. These updated maps and models will provide the City of Greater Sudbury and Atikameksheng Anishnawbek First Nation with a valuable tool to help guide land-use policies and decisions. Identifying the boundaries of a potential flood event is critical to support informed investments to reduce the impacts of flooding on the over 3500 properties located either partially or completely in the floodplains of Junction Creek.\nThe Government of Canada is committed to working with provincial and territorial partners on a disaster relief approach that will allow us to better identify, plan for and reduce the impact of weather-related emergencies and natural disasters on Canadians.\n\"Weather-related natural disasters are getting more severe, more frequent, more damaging and more expensive. This is a threat not only to the safety of our communities, but to our economic stability. The Government of Canada is determined to reduce these risks in partnership with provinces and territories. I welcome this funding as it will equip the City of Greater Sudbury and Atikameksheng Anishnawbek First Nation with the tools needed to expand the mapping of flood-prone areas in our community to reduce the impacts of flooding and increase our overall disaster resiliency.\"\n- Paul Lefebvre, Member of Parliamentary for Sudbury, on behalf of the Honourable Ralph Goodale, Minister of Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness\n\"This funding provided by Public Safety Canada enables Conservation Sudbury to update mapping that is nearly 40 years old. Much has changed in the Junction Creek watershed since the floodplain was first delineated. New technologies will be applied to recent data collected by the City of Greater Sudbury and the Province of Ontario that will allow dynamic models to be produced based on complete, highly-accurate mapping. This is a valuable capacity-building opportunity that both the City and Atikameksheng Anishnawbek First Nation will benefit from over the long term.\"\n- Lin Gibson, Chairperson, Conservation Sudbury\nSince the launch of the NDMP in 2015, the NDMP has approved funding for 273 projects across Canada that are helping to build safer, more resilient communities.\nis investing in public awareness activities and risk and resiliency tools like the Federal Flood Mapping Guidelines, to help all levels of government to make informed decisions around flood mitigation;\nhas created a new $2 billion federal Disaster Mitigation and Adaptation Fund to support the infrastructure required to deal with the effects of a changing climate; and\nis integrating climate resilience into the National Building Code and conducting research to factor climate resilience into the design of buildings.\nAccording to the Insurance Bureau of Canada, insured damage in 2016 topped $4.9 billion \u2013 passing the previous annual record of $3.2 billion set in 2013\u2014and that the annual economic cost of disasters around the world has increased five-fold since the 1980s. Flooding damage has accounted for 80 per cent federal disaster assistance payments over the past 20 years.\nStudies have demonstrated that when structural and non-structural investments are implemented in concert, the result is a 6:1 return on investment.\nIntegrating climate resilience into the National Building Code\nFor further information: Scott Bardsley, Senior Advisor for Communications, Office of the Minister of Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness, 613-998-5681, scott.bardsley@canada.ca; Media Relations, Public Safety Canada, 613-991-0657, ps.mediarelations-relationsaveclesmedias.sp@canada.ca\nFeb 11, 2019, 10:26 ET Government of Canada funds tailored approach to countering...\nFeb 11, 2019, 08:00 ET /R E P E A T -- Media Advisory - Parliamentary Secretary...\nGovernments of Canada and Ontario announce funding for flood mitigation project",

She was also a screenwriter, editor, art director and business manager. In her short career, she appeared in at least 17 films and, with director Raymond Longford, collaborated on many more. Set against a distinctly Australian background, these films played on the contrasts between city and country, upper and working class, and England and Australia.\nBy 1914, movies had become a national obsession. Humble suburban picture palaces and grand city theatres catered to a wide audience. Programs included several short non-fiction films, some comedies, a newsreel and a feature. Cheaper than the theatre, a trip to the pictures was an escape available to many.\nThe Bronte Picture Palace, Sydney, about 1910.

Luis Grullon shrugged off the inconvenience and said he would come back later in the week to pay his bill if need be.\nSayegh\u2019s chief of staff, Kathleen Long, said the tax office is not supposed to be taking any payments until Thursday because the staff can't issue electronic receipts. She said city officials would track those cases in which checks were \u201cmistakenly\u201d accepted.\nSayegh is touting the initiative as part of his effort to bring Paterson \u201cinto the 21st century.\u201d He had been calling for the online payment system for years when he was on the City Council.\nOnce the conversion is complete, residents will have the option of paying their bills online or in person, Long said.

        "raw_content": "Trump Leaves Top Administration Positions Unfilled, Says Hollow Government By Design With a Cabinet post awaiting a nominee and hundreds of senior government positions unfilled, Trump says he is draining the swamp. Others say he is leaving \"substitute teachers\" in charge.\nTrump Leaves Top Administration Positions Unfilled, Says Hollow Government By Design\nTrump Leaves Top Administration Positions Unfilled, Says Hollow Government By Design 3:48\nMore than half of State Department positions requiring Senate confirmation still don't have a nominee, including the ambassador to South Korea and the assistant secretary for East Asian and Pacific affairs. Joshua Roberts/Reuters hide caption\nMore than half of State Department positions requiring Senate confirmation still don't have a nominee, including the ambassador to South Korea and the assistant secretary for East Asian and Pacific affairs.\nWith President Trump's announcement that he plans to nominate Kirstjen Nielsen as homeland security secretary, he still has one more Cabinet post to fill \u2014 health and human services secretary. A president having to find replacements for two Cabinet secretaries this early in an administration is unprecedented. But observers are more alarmed by the less visible vacancies at the sub-Cabinet level: hundreds of positions without a nominee, and a president who says he has no intention of filling many of the jobs.\n\"I'm generally not going to make a lot of the appointments that would normally be \u2014 because you don't need them,\" Trump said in an interview with Forbes Magazine last week. \"I mean, you look at some of these agencies, how massive they are, and it's totally unnecessary. They have hundreds of thousands of people.\"\nAsked about the president's comment, press secretary Sarah Sanders said that some jobs are in the process of being filled, with candidates going through an intensive vetting process, but that \"the president came to Washington to drain the swamp and get rid of a lot of duplication, make government more efficient. And so if we can have one person do a job instead of six, then we certainly want to do that.\"\nAs North Korea intensifies its effort to become a nuclear-armed nation, threatening the U.S. and its allies, Trump still hasn't nominated key people to help develop the U.S. strategy and response. More than half of State Department positions requiring Senate confirmation still don't have a nominee, including the ambassador to South Korea and the assistant secretary for East Asian and Pacific affairs.\n\"This is not a question of not filling superfluous positions, of which there are many in government,\" said Danielle Pletka, senior vice president for foreign and defense policy studies at the right-leaning American Enterprise Institute. \"This is a question of filling important positions.\"\nAlthough other departments have a higher share of vacant positions, the sheer number of top-level positions open at the State Department and the high stakes involved in the work there make it especially notable.\nWhat Is \u2014 And Isn't \u2014 Covered By The Iranian Nuclear Deal\nOn Friday, Trump is expected to announce a decision that could upend the Iran nuclear deal, and again, Pletka said, key appointed personnel are not in place to explain the president's decision to U.S. allies.\nWhat's Next For The Iran Nuclear Deal If President Trump Refuses To Recertify It?\nIn the State Department alone, there is no nominee for ambassador to Egypt, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Qatar or Turkey. And there is no assistant secretary for arms control or assistant secretary for international security and nonproliferation.\n\"Who's going to take that message to our Middle East allies? We don't have any ambassadors. Who's going to take that message to our Asian and European allies?\" Pletka asked. \"We. Don't. Have. Those. People.\"\nAlso not yet nominated in the State Department: the assistant secretary for Near East affairs and the assistant secretary for South and Central Asian affairs. The U.S. is engaged in ongoing military operations in both those regions.\nTrump Nominates Kirstjen Nielsen As Next Homeland Security Secretary\nAt the Department of Homeland Security, where Trump just announced a pick for secretary, there are still no nominees for the critical positions of chief financial officer, assistant secretary for Immigration and Customs Enforcement and deputy administrator for the Federal Emergency Management Agency. This comes as Trump is pushing for aggressive immigration enforcement and as numerous states and Puerto Rico are trying to recover from natural disasters.\nOf approximately 600 key appointed positions throughout the government that require Senate confirmation tracked by the Partnership for Public Service, \"President Trump has only about a quarter that are actually in place, and we're nine months into his administration,\" said Max Stier, president and CEO of the nonpartisan group.\nThat \"is way behind what any prior administration has been able to accomplish and is a big problem,\" Stier added.\nIn addition to Trump's slow pace for naming appointees, the Senate has also been slow to confirm his nominees.\nAnd while Trump says he is creating efficiency by leaving positions without nominees, Stier and others say it's not that simple. Those open jobs are being filled on an interim basis by career civil servants and foreign service officers.\n\"But they are the proverbial substitute teacher; everyone knows you're not around for the long term,\" Stier said. \"Whatever decisions you make aren't going to necessarily stick. You're not likely to take the long-term view or handle the most difficult issues.\"\nThe people put in acting positions are often senior career civil servants with 20 or 30 years working in those agencies, said Jon Alterman, senior vice president at the Center for Strategic and International Studies.\n\"They're just at the point where they do have a lot to lose and they become very risk-averse, and I think you want people to be cautious but you don't want them to be so risk-averse that they are afraid to act,\" said Alterman.\nHe says political appointees, confirmed by the Senate, have a bias toward action and bring fresh ideas. That is something you are less likely to get with a civil servant afraid of running afoul of the White House and ending a career.\nWhat Pletka really doesn't understand is why a president who came to Washington promising to shake things up wouldn't want to install his own people to help him do just that.\n\"I'm actually just gobsmacked,\" said Pletka. \"One of the most important things about running for president and about being elected president is that you do get to make your mark.\"\nPolitical appointees are one of the significant ways past presidents have made their mark on federal agencies.",

        "raw_content": "Natural, semi-natural and agricultural landscapes provide a range of ecosystem services, firstly and most obviously the provisioning of food, water, fibre, fuel and timber amongst other products. But beyond this, these systems provide recreational and cultural services such as sport fisheries, nature reserves and the protection of rural livelihoods. Many landscapes also regulate and support environmental services such as soil and water conservation, climate regulation, carbon storage, energy production, nutrient and waste re-cycling and biodiversity regulation (Idol et al 2011). Climate change and biodiversity loss are two of the biggest global challenges in the coming decades, primarily due to their impacts on the provision of ecosystem services. There is an urgent need to find ways both to meet immediate and growing demand for food, whilst managing global biodiversity to assure our capacity to respond to climate and other environmental change.\nIntegrated natural and social science expertise is required to facilitate processes of exploring the impacts, costs and benefits of decisions on the management of ecosystem services among the diverse stakeholders involved and affected. Our multidisciplinary expertise is essential to expanding our knowledge about ecosystem services and their management for sustaining and improving our growing population\u2019s livelihoods whilst protecting the natural world.\nThe Ecosystem Services research group has capacity and experience in the following specific fields:\nBiodiversity services:\nRegulation of pest populations\nMitigation and adaptation of agricultural systems through carbon management.\nIncreasing agricultural productivity while maintaining ecosystem services\nInstitutions and policies to manage Ecosystem services\nProfessor Jeremy Haggar Professor of Agroecology +44 (0)1634 88 3209 This email address is being protected from spambots.

        "raw_content": "Polio case confirmed in PNG's Enga Province\nThe National Department of Health of Papua New Guinea (NDOH) and the World Health Organisation (WHO) Monday announced a case of polio in a three-year old boy from Mulitaka, Laigam District in Enga Province.\nThe confirmation was made on Friday by the Victorian Infectious Disease Reference Laboratory\u2014a WHO Collaborating Centre in Australia. The boy had an onset of symptoms on 30 June and onset of paralysis on 2 July. His vaccination history is unknown due to unavailability of the baby clinic book, and his travel history is being established.\n\u201cThe detection of the case is a result of our enhanced surveillance system put in place in all provinces in response to the confirmed polio cases in Morobe province,\u201d according to Pascoe Kase, Secretary of the National Department of Health.\n\u201cA joint NDOH and WHO team is currently in the field to conduct an epidemiological investigation. Confirmation of this case in Enga highlights that the outbreak has spread geographically, and this is a concern. It is critical that all children are rapidly vaccinated as part of the ongoing outbreak response in the country, to stop the spread of this virus and prevent further children from being paralysed.\u201d\n\u201cThe identification of this case underscores the importance of maintaining high levels of routine vaccination coverage and effective surveillance systems for early detection\u201d, said Dr Luo Dapeng, WHO Representative in Papua New Guinea. \u201cThe virus can emerge in populations which are inadequately immunised. In many provinces, including Enga, the vaccination coverage is far below the required level.\u201d\nMore than 600 000 doses of oral polio vaccine have already been distributed in Papua New Guinea for supplemental immunization activities. Additional supplies for the remainder of the response are expected to arrive in country in the coming days.\nSOURCE: WHO/PACNEWS",

        "raw_content": "Five Yoga Practices to Manage Chronic Pain\nThere are limitations to conventional medical treatments of chronic pain. Of course, there are a variety of pharmaceutical approaches to pain management, but almost all of them have negative side effects, including dizziness, nausea, and the risk of developing a dependence on the medicine.\nBecause conventional medicine does not always have effective responses, Complementary and Alternative Medicine is an important option for many who suffer from chronic pain.\nBenefits of Yoga for Chronic Pain\nYoga is an effective treatment for chronic pain because it works both the mind and the body. As a low-impact exercise, it provides gentle stretching that can ease stiffness and pain. As a meditation procedure, it helps to keep the mind alert and calm, and reduce the perception of pain.\nStudies have shown that yoga is \u201ceffective in the treatment of chronic pain, including osteoarthritis, carpal tunnel syndrome, and fibromyalgia. In the studies reviewed, patients saw significant reductions in joint pain, muscle stiffness, and overall physical discomfort while greatly improving their flexibility, range of motion, and muscle strength.\u201d\nKeep in mind that for beginning practitioners, it\u2019s always best to get experienced guidance when trying yoga. Proper form is important, and watching videos can only take you so far. If you have a serious condition such as disc diseases, you should also check with your doctor before trying yoga. If you can\u2019t do the poses by yourself, pillows or foam supports may make it easier.\nCobra pose. This is a simple exercise that can help greatly with lower back pain. Lie facedown on the floor with your legs stretched straight back and toes pointed backward. Place your forearms on the floor and push upward, lifting your chest but keeping your thighs and groin on the floor. Don\u2019t forget to breathe! Lift as far as you can without pain, hold the pose for a few seconds, and slowly lower again.\nDolphin pose. This is an easier variation of the well-known downward dog pose that does not stress the arms as much. It still provides a strong full-body stretch that loosens and strengthens the legs and core. Start on your hands and knees, with knees directly under your hips and forearms flat on the floor. Press your toes to the floor and lift your buttocks toward the ceiling. Straighten your legs if you can, but keeping them bent is okay. Keep your upper body straight as well \u2014 don\u2019t flex your back or push your head into the floor. Hold for a few second and then lower again.\nButterfly pose. This stretch helps painful hips and backs. Sit on the floor with your legs in front of you. Press the soles of your feet together and keep them together as you move your knees apart, lowering them as far to the floor as you can (but don\u2019t force it!). Hold as long as comfortable, and then raise your knees again.\nMountain pose with shoulder stretch. For shoulder/neck pain. Stand straight upright and reach your right hand back to the back of your neck, and your left hand around your back. Move the hands together slowly and clasp them, keeping your spine straight. (If you can\u2019t clasp your hands, hold a strap or rope between them.) Then slowly lift your right elbow as far as you can and hold a few seconds. Release and repeat on the other side.\nSupine torso twist. Another pose useful for back pain. Lie flat on your back with your arms out in a T and your feet on the floor, knees up. Slowly lower your knees toward the left side. Go as far as you can without lifting your shoulders from the floor. Hold for a few seconds, then return to center and repeat the exercise toward the right side.\nSciatica is pain in the lower back or legs caused by irritation of the sciatic nerve. The largest nerve in the body, the sciatic nerve stretches from the lumbar spinal cord in your lower back all the way down to your feet and is responsible for transmitting sensory information from these areas of the body. Sciatic pain is usually felt extending from the lumbar area to behind the thigh, and can even reach below the knee. In most cases is it felt on only one side of the body at a time.\nPain from sciatica can range from mild to severe, and it may feel like it\u2019s radiating over a large area or be sharp and localized. Transitioning from sitting to standing and vice versa can trigger sharp sciatic pain, as can any sudden lower-back movement. Those suffering from sciatica can experience leg numbness, \u201cpins and needles,\u201d burning sensations, foot numbness, limping, and muscle weakness.\nCommon causes of sciatica are a herniated disk pressing on the nerve, trauma to the lower back, pregnancy, joint dysfunction, degenerative disc disease, and spondylolisthesis.\nHerniated disc: This is one of the most common causes of sciatica. A herniated or bulging disc can cause disc material to push against a nearby nerve root, compressing the nerve tissue and causing sciatica. In addition to this pressure, a herniated disc also contains hyaluronic acid, which can cause nerve inflammation, compounding the pain from the compression.\nDegenerative disc disease: Though the name is frightening, this is the most common cause of lower back and neck pain and is simply a byproduct of aging. One of the symptoms of degenerative disc disease is inflammation that can irritate the sciatic nerve. Another symptom is muscle spasms attributed to the body attempting to stabilize the spine to prevent additional damage, which can impinge on the sciatic nerve in the process.\nPregnancy: Weight gain and elevated fluid retention associated with pregnancy can compress the sciatic nerve where it passes through the pelvis. An expanding uterus can also compress the sciatic nerve at the base of your spine. In the third trimester, when the baby begins shifting into the birth position, its head can end up pressing against the nerve.\nSpondylolisthesis: This condition is most prevalent in older individuals, characterized by the bones, joints and ligaments in the spine gradually weakening and losing their ability to keep the spinal column properly aligned. As these spinal components shift, they can encroach on the sciatic nerve, putting pressure on the nerve and causing pain when standing or walking.\nThe sacroiliac joint connects the spine with the pelvis. Sciatic pain arising from sacroiliac joint dysfunction is not true sciatica, as it does not involve compression of the nerve root, but stems from joint inflammation that can irritate the nearby sciatic nerve. The symptoms, however, can be similar.\nThere are three million cases of sciatica in the United States each year. Sciatica is usually self-diagnosable and may not require lab tests or medical imaging. Some cases of sciatica can benefit from self-care treatments such as applying an ice pack to the affected area, regular physical exercise, and stretching. More serious cases may require physical therapy, massage, acupuncture or chiropractic treatment. In addition to these physical treatments, some severe forms of sciatica may require an epidural steroid injection to alleviate the pain, pain medication, anti-inflammatory drugs, muscle relaxants or analgesics like Tylenol.\nSciatica pain can last weeks or months, depending on the root cause and treatment used. There is no quick fix, but the right treatment and management can relieve the pain and allow the resumption of normal activities. For diagnosis and treatment recommendations, contact the Pain Care Clinic of Idaho to schedule an appointment. Call (208) 629-2492.",

Photo by Don Feria/isiphotos.com\nAmber Orrange took charge of Stanford's new offense and ran it fluidly, leading the sixth-ranked Cardinal to its 14th consecutive season opener, a convincing 96-63 victory over visiting Boston College on Friday night.\nOrrange lit up the stat sheet with 11 points on 4 of 5 shooting, six assists and nine rebounds, which matches her career high.\n\"It was a great game for us to start with,\" Stanford coach Tara VanDerveer said. \"It's early and I'm happy to give everybody a look.\"\nThe Cardinal has it hands full with top-ranked Connecticut and its 47-game winning streak coming to Maples Pavilion for a 6 p.m. game Monday night.\n\"We want to come out and be aggressive,\" VanDerveer said. \"We've played great games with. I see it as a win-win.\"\nIt should be an eye-opening experience for sophomores Lili Thompson and Erica McCall, both of whom recorded career highs in scoring against the Eagles and both of whom will have to grow up in a hurry against a Huskies team that walloped UC Davis on Friday night.\n\"I think it will be a great game,\" McCall said. \"We have to do our jobs and just get after it.\"\nWith Stanford's new offense in its infancy, and the Huskies ability to press, that may be too much to ask. Still, Orrange and Thompson showed a guard-oriented offense could be productive.\n\"It's a little more wide open, a little more spread out,\" Thompson said. \"With this new offense I have to knock down shots so people won't double on Bird.\"\n'Bird' is McCall's nickname, given to her by last year's National Player of the Year Chiney Ogwumike, whose role McCall will have to help fill this year.\nThompson scored a career-high 26 points on 9 of 13 shooting, including 3 of 4 from range. McCall added a career-high 16 points. Taylor Greenfield scored 10.\nThe Cardinal shot 64.9 percent from the field, its fifth best in program history and the best since setting the record at 67.3 against Oregon State in 2010.\nBoston College stayed in the game in the first half thanks to its 9 of 16 shooting from 3-point range. The Eagles never made another one.\n\"I just told them if they make a 3 on you, you're coming out,\" VanDerveer said. \"We had to tighten up a little bit and we buckled down in the second half.\"\nThere were other things to like too. Tess Picknell grabbed six rebounds in seven minutes and Kailee Johnson matched her career high with three blocked shots.\nAnother test comes Monday.",

Photo by Don Feria/isiphotos.com\nStanford's Jamie Neushul scored the winning goal with 15 seconds left to play to carry the USA Women's Junior National Team to a thrilling 17-16 victory over Spain at the FINA Junior World Championships on Wednesday in Volos, Greece.\nThe triumph marked the third straight victory for Team USA, which took first place in its group and earned a bye into Friday's quarterfinals.\nThe Americans meet Brazil in the quarterfinals. Brazil downed Japan, 12-9 in Thursday's qualification round to advance.\nAria Fischer scored four goals and Neushul added three, including the game-winner. Stanford's Jordan Raney scored once and Amanda Longan went the distance in net while recording nine saves.\nA combined 41 exclusions were called in the match, resulting in four USA players fouling out and leaving goalkeeper Emalia Eichleberger to play the field in the final moments of the match.\nTeam USA got off to a quick start in this match with goals from Mary Brooks and Fischer to go ahead 2-0 in the opening 90 seconds. Spain rallied to tie the match at 2 while setting the tone for what would be a back-and-forth match throughout. Judith Forca scored four goals in the period for Spain to help her team take a 6-5 lead after the first period.\nAndrea Gonzalez scored early in the second quarter to give Spain its largest lead at 8-5 before Team USA began to battle back.\nEmily Loughlin and Neushul scored to make it 8-7 with 4:43 to play in the first half. Spain went ahead 9-7, but the rest of the quarter belonged to the USA. Alexis Liebowitz and Fischer connected to tie the match at 9 and then Makenzie Barr found the net with just four seconds left to give the Americans a 10-9 halftime lead.\nThe United States kept up the offensive attack in the third quarter, building its lead to 13-9 with 3:53 to go in the period. Fischer, Neushul, and Tara Prentice all scored to push the advantage to four. Spain scored two of the next three goals to close out the third period trailing 14-11.\nBoth teams continued to score into the fourth quarter but, after Brooks scored her second of the day, Team USA went ahead 16-13 with 5:11 to play. Spain rallied with two straight goals to close within one at 16-15 with 2:19 to go in the match.\nNeushul's goal with just 15 seconds left sealed the deal for Team USA as it went up 17-15. A goal with three seconds left from Spain's Beatriz Ortiz wrapped up the wild match. Team USA went 11 for 20 on power plays and converted its lone penalty shot while Spain was 10 for 19 on power plays and also made a penalty shot.",

        "raw_content": "Those artists who find themselves stuck in the deepest of ruts two decades into their careers could learn a thing or two from veteran singer-songwriter Kim Richey. She\u2019s never been afraid to go where the inspiration is.\nTwo-time Grammy-nominated Kim is a storyteller; a weaver of emotions and a tugger of heartstrings. Tender, poetic and aching with life\u2019s truths, Kim\u2019s songs transport you to her world, where words paint pictures and melodies touch the soul. And then there\u2019s her voice. Pure, arresting and honest, it makes you take notice; Kim has the kind of voice where if emotions were ribbons, they\u2019d be streaming in rainbow colours from your iPod.\nEarly on, the Zanesville, Ohio native thrived on the progressive side of mainstream country, her albums (1995\u2019s Kim Richey, 1997\u2019s Bittersweet and 1999\u2019s Glimmer, all on Mercury) showcasing twang-pop sensibilities, a rich, rounded vocal tone and effortlessly sophisticated songwriting that other discerning performers \u2013 Radney Foster, Trisha Yearwood and Pam Tillis to name a few \u2013 coveted for their own recordings.\nIn the years since, Kim has made her subtly psychedelic album Rise (Lost Highway) in Los Angeles with producer Bill Bottrell, flown to London to enlist the help of Giles Martin and emerging with the crisply orchestrated Chinese Boxes (Vanguard) and turned to her East Nashville-based bandleader and frequent co-writer Neilson Hubbard to conjure the earthy indie-pop feel of Wreck Your Wheels (Lojinx/Thirty Tigers).\nOver 1000 shows, 10 years, and 200,000 miles have passed since Dean Fields went on the road to pursue a career in music. During that time his address changed from Richmond VA to Miami to Boston until most recently settling in Nashville TN. Now, he hits the road again to promote his most recent release \u201cAny Minute Now.\u201d\nHis recent homecoming has found Fields selling out shows in Richmond VA, as well as nearby Washington DC. \u201cDean Fields writes lyrics like Leonard Cohen and sings like Jeff Buckley. It\u2019s no surprise that there\u2019s a serious buzz on this Virginia singer-songwriter.\u201d (Free Times) While continuing to feed his passion for music, Dean is fueled by a single-minded love to perform, sharing the stage with Willie Nelson, Old Crow Medicine Show, Emmylou Harris, Alison Krauss, KT Tunstall, Blues Traveler, Rosanne Cash, Eric Hutchinson, Colin Hay, Bob Schneider, Auqualung, Hootie and the Blowfish, John Hiatt, Cake, Bruce Hornsby, Rusted Root, Madeleine Peyroux, Carbon Leaf, among others. In addition, Fields\u2019 maturity as a writer and performer is brought to the fore by some of the region\u2019s finest musicians. The band features members of Mandy Moore, Sparklehorse, Agents of Good Roots, KD Lang, Carbonleaf and Modern Groove Syndicate.",

The point is to document that a patient had not been transfused or pregnant within the last three months. I think the reason why most people consider 14 days is to include the 7 days after transfusion a sample needs to be saved for and then add another 7 days. Another point is storage capabilities. Do you have enough space to hold samples for 30 or 45 days? We had a process in which a presurgical sample was drawn on day X and at that time the patient would be asked those two questions. Documentation of the person asking the questions (full name or employee code), the draw date, the surgery date, the answers to those two questions, patient's demographics and a disclaimer explaining that if one of the two questions is \"Yes\" the sample needs to be drawn within 3 days of the procedure. In some hospitals, this paper is, in fact, an order placed in the HIS and the blood bank will document the answer to those two questions. In other hospitals, a similar version of that form is filled out the day of surgery by the pre-surgical team documenting the same two questions. This second form help hospitals that extended the Type & Screen for a longer amount of time (let's say 30 or 45 days) to document any possible hospitalizations or encounters the patient may have had in between the time the presurgical sample was drawn and the surgery date. Maybe there are some strange cases where a patient may have had a visit to a hospital and blood was given (a hospital other than the one performing the future surgery) and this second form was the only tool that could have caught that. The Type and Screen can be extended on the presurgical day if both questions are \"No\". Those samples will be saved in a special rack and the forms filed in a special folder. I have not seen many cases in which I have to retrieve a presurgical sample to do extra testing. For the question regarding a blood bank ID band; this band, the presurgical sample, and the presurgical form can be sent to the blood bank on the day of draw. The blood bank will give the band to the presurgical team at some point before the surgery. Maybe the second form I mentioned earlier could be used as another verifying that a blood bank ID band is on the patient and the two questions are still \"No\". If for some reason a patient has a clinically significant antibody(ies) two RBC units can be set up the day the sample was tested this way there won't be an issue trying to use a sample that is 30 days old. This, however, will tie up two RBC units for that amount of time. Sorry I went on and on. I wanted to cover all the bases. Thank You Frank\nWelcome to the forums Franciscan8524",

What's this?\nEric Bottomley's Transport Gallery Hardback Add to Basket \u00a330.00\nEric Bottomley's Transport Gallery ePub (29.1 MB) Add to Basket \u00a318.00\nThis is Eric Bottomley's second art book, in which he has varied both his transport themes and the mediums in which he works. The majority of paintings are in oils but also included are gouache (watercolour) and pencil sketches. However, some paintings are both gouache and pencil, together known as mixed media.\nRailways have always been a great passion of Eric's, from trainspotting around the ex-Lancashire & Yorkshire system as a boy, to painting commisions for customers both private and commercial. From his lowly studio in Wimborne, Dorset, where his painting career took off, Eric never envisaged that one day he would witness his paintings being presented to the Duke of Kent, or that he would meet the Duke of Gloucester (a fellow railway enthusiast). In 1979 he joined the Guild of Railway Artists, and later became a full member.\nIncluded in this book are all four regions of Britain's railway, but mostly the BR period from 1948, to the end of steam in 1968. Added to this are such scenes as the Trans-Siberian Express in Moscow, The Golfers Express leaving Belfast and preserved diesels in the USA.\nThe sad demise of steam and dereliction of the canals in the 1960s, and the amazing restoration projects over the years, has provided Eric with an enormous scope of subject matter, much of which is captured in this compelling book.\nThis nostalgic journey is beautifully illustrated and accompanied by notes from the artist.\nLeisure Painter, January 2019\nThis is Eric Bottomley's second art book, in which he has varied both his transport themes and the mediums in which he works. The majority of paintings are in oils but also included are gouache, mixed media and pencil sketches.\nAll four regions of Britain\u2019s railways are covered, mostly of the BR period from 1948 to the end of steam in 1968. There are some lovely Welsh scenes including Abercynon shed, Hindlip Hall at Gobowen, the Vale of Rheidol Railway (with No 3 Talybont), the Corris Railway, a 43xx near Barmouth, Llanfyllin Station, the Tanat Valley, Bala Station, the Talyllyn in the snow and my personal favourite and the star of your Christmas Newsletter cover, Talybont on Usk in the snow).\nFurther afield you\u2019ll find scenes on the Trans-Siberian Express in Moscow, The\nGolfers Express leaving Belfast and preserved diesels in the USA. The demise of steam and the dereliction to be found on canals in the 1960's, provided Eric with an enormous scope of subject matter, much of which is captured in this delightful book.\nWelsh Railways Research Circle No.157\nAbout Eric Bottomley\nEric Bottomley was born in Oldham in 1948. He studied art and crafts at the Oldham School of Art, leaving in 1964 to pursue a career in commercial art. As a freelance artist and illustrator, he specialised in industrial and transport subjects. He set up a studio in Wimborne Minster and later, in 1979, became a member of the Guild of Railway Artists. In the 1980s, Eric moved to Much Marcle, Herefordshire, where he often painted the local scene and its industries. Eric has covered most forms of transport, producing work for private commissions and corporate customers. He now lives in South Devon, where he continues to paint and pursue his other great railway passion, that of modelling the railways and industrial scene of his youth, in 0 Gauge.\nMore titles by Eric Bottomley",

        "raw_content": "The Second World War Through Soldiers' Eyes (Hardback)\nBritish Army Life 1939-1945\nWWII Women of History Military\nBy James Goulty\nAs featured in Hexham Courant\nYou'll be \u00a319.99 closer to your next \u00a310.00 credit when you purchase The Second World War Through Soldiers' Eyes. What's this?\nThe Second World War Through Soldiers'\u2026 Kindle (35.3 MB) Add to Basket \u00a311.99\nThe Second World War Through Soldiers'\u2026 ePub (16.1 MB) Add to Basket \u00a311.99\n'What was it really like to serve in the British Army during the Second World War?\nDiscover a soldier's view of life in the British Army \u2013 from recruitment and training to the brutal realities of combat. Using first-hand sources, James Goulty reconstructs the experiences of the men and women who made up the 'citizen's army'. Find out about the weapons and equipment they used; the uniforms they wore; how they adjusted to army discipline and faced the challenges of active service overseas.\nWhat happened when things went wrong? What were your chances of survival if you were injured in combat or taken prisoner? While they didn't go into combat, thousands of women also served in the British Army with the ATS or as nurses. What were their wartime lives like? And, when the war had finally ended, how did newly demobilised soldiers and servicewomen cope with returning home?\nThe British Army that emerged victorious in 1945 was vastly different from the poorly funded force of 865,000 men who heard Neville Chamberlain declare war in 1939. With an influx of civilian volunteers and conscripts, the army became a \u2018citizen\u2019s force\u2019 and its character and size were transformed. By D-Day Britain had a well-equipped, disciplined army of over three million men and women and during the war they served in a diverse range of places across the world. This book uncovers some of their stories and gives a fascinating insight into the realities of army life in wartime.\nBy skillfully blending the narrative with first-hand accounts, Goulty has produced a well-written and compelling read.\nJournal of the Second World War Experience Centre\nAn interesting read and one that does well in describing what the experience of serving in WW2 was like for the British soldier.\nMade up of five chapters called Call-Up and Training; Life on Active Service; Enduring Active Service; Prisoner of War Experiences and Casualties and Medical Matters the book is rounded off by an extensive bibliography listing a large number of county records, IWM interviews and secondary sources.\nThere are a few black and white photographs in the centre of the book but you will not be distracted by them, as the text is thoroughly engaging from the start the to finish as you digest personal stories from the mundane every day routine events through to the horror of full blown conflict.\nWhile this is a very personal book, for many it will also prove to be a great resource and reference for the future.\nMilitary Modelling, 4803\nThe book is well structured with chapters on call-up and training, life on active service, enduring active service, prisoner of war experiences, and casualties and medical matters. Within each chapter are sub chapters and thus in, for example, the enduring active service chapter, there are separate sections dealing with battle fatigue, desertion and self-inflicted wounds; discipline in the field; welfare and entertainment, and so on.\nThe author has drawn on much original source material and whilst there is perhaps an over-reliance on material from archives in the north-east, I suspect that this doesn\u2019t matter too much as a Tyne and Wear soldier\u2019s experiences would probably be found to be much the same as those of men from say, the Midlands, or Sussex.\nJames Goulty knows his stuff and more to the point, he also knows how to write engagingly; two essential characteristics of any military history book. I like this book a lot, and as we approach these milestone anniversaries for the conflict - 75 years, 80 years, 90 years etc - and public interest is sparked and sparked again, this book is going to come into its own more and more. This would suit school libraries very well, but it has a far wider audience than that and deserves to do well.\nThere is a good bibliography and index, but above all, the book has been well-written; it\u2019s interesting and compelling and I for one will be keeping it close to hand for future reference.\nJames Goulty has utilised personal testimonies from the Imperial War Museum, Northumberland Archives and interviews he has carried out himself, combined with memoirs, diaries and written accounts from numerous archives including Durham County Records Office, Lincolnshire Archives, Tyne & Wear Archives to ensure first hand testimony in central to The Second World War Through Soldiers' Eyes.\nRecollections of WWII\nAbout James Goulty\nMore titles by James Goulty",

        "raw_content": "Magic Food Bus rolls out for summer season\nAdds school program in Penobscot\nIt is a busy time of year for Healthy Peninsula, which is gearing up for another installment of the Magic Food Bus and school gardening programs across the Blue Hill Peninsula and Island communities.\nHealthy Peninsula\u2019s Anna Wind, along with Justine Appel, are set to head up the school gardening programs again this summer. The Brooksville program is in its second year, while a new program is set to go in Penobscot this year.\n\u201cThe school programs are very exciting because we get to teach these kids how to find enjoyment out of their food,\u201d said Wind. \u201cWe try to make food as fun as we can, and help them find pride in the gardens they create and food they grow.\u201d\nWind said that there will also be a literacy piece to the program\u2019s educational value, as well as guest speakers and field trips to the different farms in the area.\n\u201cWe\u2019ve been so lucky to partner with the local farms, not only for the school program, but for the Magic Food Bus as well,\u201d said Wind.\nThe food grown by the students during the summer program is used as snacks during camp days; however, the students also give their produce to be used by the Magic Food Bus.\n\u201cI think that\u2019s an important piece of it. The kids feel like they\u2019re giving back and can take pride in the fact that people in their communities are eating the food they\u2019ve grown,\u201d said Wind.\nThe school programs are scheduled for Tuesdays in Penobscot from 8-11:30 a.m., and Thursdays in Brooksville from 8-11:30 a.m. The programs are free to the students.\nThe Magic Food Bus makes for busy Thursdays and Fridays for Healthy Peninsula volunteers, as drivers make stops at 14 locations from Penobscot to Stonington during those two days. The program started June 28 and rolls through September 29.\nA new stop at the Blue Hill Public Library geared toward children ages 5 and up is scheduled for 10:30 a.m. on Fridays, during which time a children\u2019s story will be read while food is available.\n\u201cThe Magic Food Bus is important because it makes fresh produce accessible to everyone,\u201d said Wind. \u201cWe have all these amazing local farmers who grow incredible produce, so it\u2019s exciting to be able to share that with everyone.\u201d\nIn addition to sourcing produce from local farmers, Wind said Healthy Peninsula is also welcoming area gardeners to share their surplus produce with the weekly Magic Food Bus offerings.\n\u201cAnyone who is growing more produce than they\u2019ll use, they\u2019re welcome to drop it off to us,\u201d said Wind, adding that there is a cold storage trailer at the Healthy Peninsula office for exactly that use.\nThursday stops for the Magic Food Bus include Harborview Apartments in Blue Hill at 2:15 p.m., Deer Isle-Stonington High School at 2:15 p.m., Deer Run Apartments at 3:15 p.m., Penobscot Town Office at 3:30 p.m., Island Community Center at 4:30 p.m. and Brooksville Town Office at 5:30 p.m.\nOn Fridays, the Magic Food Bus drivers make stops at the Blue Hill Public Library at 10:30 a.m., The Gatherings in Surry at 10:30 a.m., Walker Pond Landing in Sedgwick at 12 p.m., Benjamin River Apartments in Sedgwick at 1 p.m., Nichols Day Camp in Sedgwick at 2 p.m., and Sedgwick Elementary School at 3:30 p.m.\nMargaret Bixby hands over Sedgwick MFB route\nAfter coming up with the idea for the Magic Food bus seven years ago, and being the face of the Sedgwick route, Margaret Bixby is handing over the reins this year to Sedgwick Elementary School kindergarten teacher Vanessa Carter.\n\u201cIt was just time,\u201d said Bixby while helping Carter sort through produce for her maiden voyage as the new Sedgwick route driver.\n\u201cI\u2019m getting older. I love doing it, and I\u2019m so happy it\u2019s continuing. Had [Carter] not stepped forward to do it, I would have kept going. Now I get to be of help, but I don\u2019t have all the responsibility,\u201d she added.\nBixby met with Carter at the Sedgwick Elementary School on June 28, the day before the first installment of the weekly Magic Food Bus run, to help her decide how to separate the produce out between stops and to give advice.\n\u201cIt\u2019s a really important thing in our community,\u201d said Bixby.\nThat importance is one of the reasons Carter stepped up and took over the route.\n\u201cI live in the community, and I didn\u2019t want to see [the program] go by the wayside,\u201d said Carter. \u201cI\u2019m anxious to get out and talk to people, and it\u2019s a great way to get good food out to the community.\u201d\nCarter will be out making stops in Sedgwick each Friday.",

        "raw_content": "Founded in 1918 by Ernest Ansermet, permanent conductor until 1967, the Orchestre de la Suisse Romande, with its 112 permanent musicians, ensures subscription concerts in Geneva and Lausanne, the City of Geneva symphony concerts, the annual concert for the UN, as well as opera performances at the Grand Th\u00e9\u00e2tre de Gen\u00e8ve. Its reputation has been built up over the years thanks to its historic recordings and its interpretation of 20th-century French and Russian repertoire.\nThe orchestra's Music and Artistic Director is Jonathan Nott. Its Principal Guest Conductor is Japanese maestro Kazuki Yamada.\nUnder the guidance of its founding conductor and subsequent music directors (Paul Kletzki 1967- 1970, Wolfgang Sawallisch 1970-1980, Horst Stein 1980-1985, Armin Jordan 1985-1997, Fabio Luisi 1997-2002, Pinchas Steinberg 2002-2005, Marek Janowski 2005-2012, Neeme J\u00e4rvi, 2012-2015), the world-famous Orchestre de la Suisse Romande is an active contributor to the history of music through the discovery or support of leading contemporary composers. The pieces by Claude Debussy, Igor Stravinsky, Darius Milhaud, Arthur Honegger, Frank Martin, Benjamin Britten, Heinz Holliger, Peter E\u00f6tv\u00f6s, James MacMillan, Pascal Dusapin or Michael Jarrell were premiered in Geneva by the OSR. It is one of its important mission: supporting the symphonic creation, and particularly the Swiss one. The OSR is a partner of Pro Helvetia until 2017 for the project \u201cOeuvres suisses\u201d.\nFrom its very early days and in close collaboration with the Radio-T\u00e9l\u00e9vision Suisse Romande, the Orchestre de la Suisse Romande has been broadcast on radio around the world, enabling millions of listeners to tune in. Thanks to a partnership with Decca, (over 100 recordings), the OSR has made legendary recordings. The orchestra has also recorded for dozens of labels, which have won major awards. The orchestra has developed a privileged partnership with Pentatone, recording up to two to three discs per season.\nThe OSR\u2019s international tours have led them to perform in the most prestigious venues in Europe (Berlin, London, Vienna, Salzburg, Paris, Budapest and Amsterdam), Asia (Tokyo, Seoul, Beijing, Shanghai), as well as in major cities on the American continent (Boston, New York, San Francisco, Washington, S\u00e3o Paulo, Buenos Aires and Montevideo). During the 2011-2012 season, the OSR gave its first performances in Moscow and St Petersburg. In July 2014 the orchestra made a triumphant visit to Japan (Suntory Hall) and Seoul (SeongNam Arts Center) and in February 2015, it engaged on a major US tour with Charles Dutoit and Nikolai Lugansky, on both the West and the East Coast. In May 2016, the OSR gave its first concerts in Mumbai (India). The OSR has been invited by many festivals, including M\u00fasica de Canarias, the Lucerne Easter and Summer Festivals, the Festival de Radio France and Montpellier, the Menuhin Festival Gstaad, and the Septembre Musical de Montreux.\nThe Orchestre de la Suisse Romande is funded by the canton and City of Geneva, Radio-T\u00e9l\u00e9vision Suisse Romande, associations of Friends of the Orchestra and many sponsors and patrons. For the concerts in Lausanne, the OSR receives generous support from the Canton of Vaud.\nPhoto by: Eric Marin\nAnton Bruckner - Symphony No. 9 in D minor\nC\u00e9sar Franck & Ernest Chausson - Symphonies\nAnton Bruckner Symphony No. 8 in C minor\nAnton Bruckner Symphony No. 7 in E major\nD'Indy - Saint-Sa\u00ebns - Chausson Orchestral Works\nAnton Bruckner - Symphony No. 4 \"Romantic\"\nBruckner - The Symphonies\n\" The Tchaikovsky Variations are elegant Mozart pastiche, dashed off with scintillating virtuosity .&...\n\" Moser offers a performance that combines sensitivity, agility and brilliance, while Manze and the Suisse...\n\"Both soloist and orchestra play with bright zest.

To speed up the preparation, we recommend making up the wild rice ahead of time and using both pre-sliced almonds and mushrooms.\nAnother wonderful thing about this dish is that it can be made ahead of time and simply reheated when it is time to serve it. The flavors taste just as wonderful the next day, and the texture and consistency hold well through the process of being chilled and then reheated.\nTo cut down on the preparation time, prepare the wild rice in advance and heat it up a bit before adding it to the skillet.\nMincing a Shallot",

Leave me alone. Leave me alone,\u201d and he rolled around on the floor with his hands pressed tightly over his ears to block any educational sounds that made it past his rant. How dare she try to teach him to read?! He had managed to block out all teachers up to that point and wouldn\u2019t give in easily. He won that fight for ignorance, too.\nSome years later he mentioned the desire to read better and even admitted that his refusal was the cause of his low literacy. He left school with a certificate of attendance. The school system wasn\u2019t willing to lie and claim he had actually learned anything.\nHe was surprised to discover people would not hire him and pay him money if he couldn\u2019t read at least a little. Well, actually, they offered him a job as a custodian, but it wasn\u2019t acceptable for social standing and the pay wasn\u2019t as high as he felt he needed. Life was treating him very unfairly.\nMore: A Yankee surrenders to the sittin\u2019 porch: Gaetz\nHe was convinced to sign up for a General Equivalency Diploma, GED, to meet the demands for better paying jobs of higher social status. Sign up? Yes. Show up? No, too much trouble. Of late he is stuck with minor theft and the free care provided by the state for the related arrests. It isn\u2019t much, but it\u2019s a living.\nPeople still feel sympathetic for this young man in what is normally considered his prime. The teachers who knew him have a harder time feeling sympathetic but they try.\nHe never had high expectations. His mother figured he could get by selling drugs but his suppliers kept getting arrested. There are others, though, who have listened and learned enough to go to college only to find themselves unwilling to listen to \u2014 or even allow \u2014 unpleasant words by others.\nSome college speakers are being shouted down just like that third grade teacher was. Many have false or even hateful ideas they want to share with students. I wouldn\u2019t care to listen to their foolishness, but I would expect others to be smart enough to recognize it as foolishness. It is actually an insult to other students to take it upon the anti-speaker\u2019s parts to decide what others should be allowed to hear.\nMore: Some bullies never grow up: Green\nI assume they don\u2019t want to hear that either.\nAs long as their ability to make loud noise holds out, they think they are winning. Some believe the government should ignore the Constitution and decide for us what we are allowed to hear or learn. Think way back and try to identify any president you wouldn\u2019t want empowered to decide what you could say or write. Surely, somewhere in the distant past there is at least one president you wouldn\u2019t trust to decide.\nMeanwhile, they make martyrs out of people who would normally be ignored by most after the first minute or so. Further, by contrasting them with would-be dictators, they might begin to look relatively benign.\nPlease remember the small child on the floor, throwing his daily tantrum and decide not to use him as a model. We don\u2019t need more prisons of concrete or mind.\nRead or Share this story: http://www.pnj.com/story/news/2017/10/21/dont-make-martyrs-out-fools-green/779712001/",

Nickles, Guest columnist Published 11:00 a.m. CT Jan. 4, 2018\nA home in Century is nearing completion after being destroyed in a 2016 tornado.(Photo11: Tony Giberson/tgiberson@pnj.com)Buy Photo\nAs the first day of 2018, it is time to reflect back on the past two years as the town of Century\u2019s disaster recovery is on its way to completion. As a result of the Feb. 15, 2016, EF-3 tornado that whipped through parts of the town, it is time to thank all the players who have contributed to the recovery process.\nImmediately after the event, the American Red Cross was in Century serving food and water to several neighborhoods. In addition, the Escambia County Sheriff\u2019s Department officers were on the job making sure everyone was safe and secure. Several church groups traveled to Century and contributed to the clean-up of neighborhoods and streets. I remember a group from Hillcrest Baptist Church clearing streets of trees and other vegetative debris as well as removing fallen trees from many rooftops.\nThe Escambia County Public Safety Division and the Building Inspections and Permitting Department were present to assess the damages to the housing stock and planning recovery efforts in concert with the town. The county\u2019s Neighborhood Enterprise Division was there to determine the need for housing rehabilitation and reconstruction. Representatives from the Escambia County Perdido Landfill were there to help the town deal with the tons of trees and other vegetative debris by providing equipment and manpower.\nOnce damage assessments were complete, several agencies were there to start the recovery process. The town is most grateful for services provided through United Way of Escambia County, Be Ready Alliance Coordinating for Emergencies (BRACE), Legal Services of North Florida, Inc., United Methodist Ministries, St. Vincent de Paul and Catholic Social Services. Without the services provided through these agencies, many of the tornado victims in Century would not have been able to recover.\nThe Neighborhood Enterprise Division, applied for and received funding through the State Housing Initiatives Partnership Program, as administered by the Florida Housing Finance Corporation. SHIP funds were to be used to rehabilitate and/or reconstruct housing units damaged and/or destroyed by the tornado. To date, the County\u2019s Neighborhood Enterprise Division has expended approximately $2 million in housing assistance in the Century area. Recovery would not have been a reality without the county\u2019s participation since a large majority of the homeowners did not have private insurance. Pensacola Habitat for Humanity partnered with Escambia County and the Escambia County Housing Finance Authority in order to construct the new homes. For several months after the disaster, the Escambia County Building Inspections and Permitting Office had staff members working at Town Hall to issue building permits.\nThe town of Century could not have recovered without the aid and assistance from these partnerships! I am sure I may have forgotten someone \u2014 please know this was not intentional. A big thank you to all who answered the call as Century is now on its way to full recovery.\nDeborah F. Nickles is the former town planner in Century.\nRead or Share this story: http://www.pnj.com/story/news/2018/01/04/century-well-way-recovery-two-years-after-tornado-guestview/1003847001/",

        "title": "Charles P\u00e9guy | Poetry Foundation",
        "raw_content": "Charles P\u00e9guy combined fervent Catholicism with socialist politics to create a body of work unlike any other. As a Twentieth-Century Literary Criticism writer suggested, \u201cMost critics find that P\u00e9guy\u2019s literary works exist outside the mainstream of modern French literature.\u201d George E. Gingras, writing in the Encyclopedia of World Literature, noted, \u201cUltimately unclassifiable, P\u00e9guy was a solitary, best remembered for resisting all forces seeking to make political capital out of moral issues.\u201d P\u00e9guy composed lengthy poems and plays, but philosophical journalism is his trademark.\nMuch of P\u00e9guy\u2019s journalism, which he published in his own magazine, Cahiers de la quinzaine, argues the principles of P\u00e9guysme, his own blend of ideas. Gingras defined P\u00e9guysme as \u201ca deeply personalist philosophy combining socialism, patriotism, and Catholicism. Less a systematic analysis than a stream of conscious meditation on the theme of the modern world, P\u00e9guysme constituted an organic body of thought that took shape in three distinct stages: (1) a formative period (1896-1904), culminating in a series of Cahiers attacking the anticlericalism and statism of modern secular society; (2) the critical middle years (1905-09), during which P\u00e9guy defined the situation of the modern world, while formulating in opposition to it a value system grounded in Henri Bergson\u2019s metaphysics, classical humanism, the traditions of old France, and a spirituality free of clericalism; (3) the major phase (1910-14), when he employed all his talent as an essayist, dramatist, and poet to chart for a reinvigorated nation the mystical vocation he envisaged as hers.\u201d Though P\u00e9guy\u2019s ideas are idiosyncratic, they reflect his era; as a Guide to French Literature reviewer explained: \u201c[P\u00e9guy\u2019s] particular constellation of attitudes can only be understood in the light of his peasant and artisan background, his love of Catholic, rural, and provincial French life, the sheer ordinariness of his experience, and his acuteness as an undisciplined and self-taught thinker in search of spirituality.\u201d\nP\u00e9guy\u2019s father died when he was less than a year old, so he was raised by his mother and grandmother. As the Guide to French Literaturewriter explained, P\u00e9guy\u2019s background was working class, and educationally innocent: \u201cHis grandmother could neither read nor write, and his mother left school at 10.\u201d P\u00e9guy, however, studied seriously at the lyc\u00e9e of Orleans, where he learned classical languages and philosophy. Through various scholarships and grants, P\u00e9guy managed to attend the Lyc\u00e9e Lakanal in Paris, where he planned to work toward entry to the \u00c9cole Normale Superi\u00e9ure, the top school for educators in France. When he failed the \u00c9cole\u2019s entrance exam, he joined the military before preparing for the exam again, at the College Sainte-Barbe. He was accepted to the \u00c9cole Normale Superi\u00e9ure in 1894, where he began to develop socialist leanings and break from the Catholic Church.\nP\u00e9guy left the \u00c9cole Normale Superi\u00e9ure in 1895 to study further the life of Joan of Arc. The Twentieth-Century Literary Criticism writer explained: \u201cHis lifelong inspiration was Joan of Arc, and it is through his dramatizations of this saint\u2019s spiritual ordeals that P\u00e9guy best expressed his own religious crises and development.\u201d His work on Joan of Arc, particularly his prose drama trilogies, emphasizes her spiritual development; the Guide to French Literature reviewer suggested: \u201cHis aim [was] to uncover the personality and motivation of the historical figure rather than to analyze the known facts.\u201d When he returned to the \u00c9cole, he was ripe to be radicalized by the events of the Dreyfus affair, in which Alfred Dreyfus, a Jewish captain in the French military, was falsely convicted accused of treason in 1894 and exonerated twelve years later.\nIn 1896, P\u00e9guy\u2019s close friend, Marcel Baudouin, died; P\u00e9guy left the \u00c9cole the next year to teach Baudouin\u2019s sister, Charlotte. Against the will of the families, P\u00e9guy then married her. Because of Mmes. P\u00e9guy and Baudouin\u2019s disapproval, they were married in a civil ceremony and their children would not be baptized. P\u00e9guy ended his formal education, opened a socialist bookstore and began to write. But while he maintained his socialist ideas, he broke with the Socialist party when it would not back Dreyfus entirely. P\u00e9guy thus began his own journal in 1900, which he called his \u201cjournal of truth.\u201d\nIn the journal, Cahiers de la quinzaine, P\u00e9guy published all of his thoughts. The Twentieth-Century Literary Criticism writer noted: \u201cP\u00e9guy\u2019s polemical essays published in the Cahiers were usually protests against the bourgeois values of the modern world, often bitterly attacking the government, officials of the Catholic Church, the academic community, and the Socialist party.\u201d Moreover, the journal dealt with P\u00e9guy\u2019s lifelong obsessions: Christianity, philosophy, patriotism, the Dreyfus affair and other issues. The Guide to French Literature writer said: \u201cThere were 15 series and 229 issues of the Cahiers, which published plays, novels, short stories, and poetry, dreams of world peace and Jewish poetry, considerations about the inevitability of war, Greek myths, extracts from Bergson and Benda\u2019s attack on Bergson, revolutionary diaries, translations of Shakespeare, and articles on Michelangelo and Beethoven.\u201d But despite the journal\u2019s breadth, P\u00e9guy maintained a lifelong interest in French Christian identity, which he explored through the Dreyfus affair, Joan of Arc and Christian myth.\nP\u00e9guy also maintained his interest in Joan of Arc. In Le myst\u00e8re de la charite de Jeanne d\u2019Arc, P\u00e9guy describes Joan\u2019s spiritual development through a series of dialogues. Edward Wagenknecht, writing in the Chicago Sunday Tribune, summarized: \u201cThe work is partly in a highly rhetorical, \u2018poetic\u2019 kind of prose with a long dialog between Joan and her friend, Hauviette, who is the conventional Christian, and passes on to a longer dialog between Joan and Madame Gervaise, who is the Church ... the culminating passage ... is a meditation of the Savior\u2019s Passion.\u201d When Julian Green, P\u00e9guy\u2019s primary translator, translated the work into English in 1950, Americans responded to P\u00e9guy\u2019s singular writing with either delight or horror. \u201cMany readers will grow impatient with this book,\u201d Wagenknecht warned, \u201cbut if they have any devotional spirit at all it will capture them before the end. At one point, they will probably declare that they admire P\u00e9guy\u2019s content but detest his style... . It is essentially an oral style; to realize its full power, one should read aloud. A good reader might well achieve a tremendous almost hypnotic effect, closer to that of the chant than to anything most of us are likely to think of as literature.\u201d J.W. Brush, writing in the Crozer Quarterly, praised, \u201cDear reader, this book is like no other you ever saw. It purports to be a play in one act, with three characters and no action. ... Its style of incantation and repetition makes it a burden to read alone ... When this is said, however, the rest must be to acknowledge it as a work of genius, and to counsel the cultivation of the right point of view for its profitable use. It is really a work of devotion.\u201d Other critics were less admiring; Rene Blanc-Roos wrote in the Nation, \u201cOne must point out that this babble soon becomes horribly tedious.\u201d\nP\u00e9guy\u2019s writing style won him both praise and disregard. Some critics dismissed him as repetitive; others lauded him as a uniquely brilliant stylist. Mary Duclaux, writing in Twentieth Century French Writers, described his place in French literature: \u201cshall we say that P\u00e9guy was the Walt Whitman of France? Shall we translate him into English under the name of Carlyle\u2014or even W.E. Henley? There was something of all of them in the irascible, quizzical, and lovable idealist whose life was one long struggle against conventional standards and a conventional style.\u201d William A. Drake, in his book Contemporary European Writers, noted, \u201cIt is difficult, in estimating the contribution of Charles P\u00e9guy to French literature and to the French spirit, to escape the temptation to overemphasis which has caused most of his contemporaries to invest this lovable and significant figure with the same sort of monumental halo which adorns the metaphorical brow of his compatriot of Orleans, Jeanne d\u2019Arc.\u201d Harry Levin of the Sewanee Review commented, Charles P\u00e9guy \u201cupsets all preconceptions of a French writer ... the academic precisian, the cynical rationalist. P\u00e9guy ... is their very antithesis.\u201d Writing in a chanting rhythm in simple, repetitive phrases about the traditions of old, Christian France, P\u00e9guy delights those who enjoy the representation, in simple words, of exalted thoughts.\nP\u00e9guy wrote until the outbreak of World War I, when he was one of the first soldiers to be sent into battle. He died at Marne in 1914, further sanctifying his name. His obsessions and simple writing style make P\u00e9guy\u2019s work singular. As a polemicist and poet devoted to Christian French identity, however, P\u00e9guy has his niche among French writers.\nWorld War I Poets\nFrom Apollinaire to Rilke, and from Brooke to Sassoon: a sampling of war poets\nMarcel, 1896.\nJeanne d\u2019Arc (title means \u201cJoan of Arc\u201d), 1897.\nNotre patrie (title means \u201cOur Fatherland\u201d), 1905.\nDe la situation faite a l\u2019histoire et \u00e0 la sociologie dans les temps modernes, 1906.\nLes Suppliants parall\u00e8les, 1906.\nLe Myst\u00e8re de la charite de Jeanne d\u2019Arc, Nouvelle revue fran\u00e7aise (Paris, France), 1910, translated as The Mystery of the Charity of Joan of Arc, 1950.\nNotre jeunesse (title means \u201cMemories of Youth\u201d), 1910, translated as Temporal and Eternal, 1958, published as Notre jeunesse; pr\u00e9c\u00e9d\u00e9 par, De la raison,Gallimard (Paris, France), 1993, translation by Alexander Dru, Liberty Fund (Indianapolis, IN), 2001.\nLe Porche du mystere de la deuxi\u00e8me vertu (title means \u201cThe Portico of the Mystery of the Second Virtue\u201d), J.

        "raw_content": "The bipartisan report includes 18 recommendations to prevent future attacks.\nReport: Benghazi attack preventable\nThe attack at the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi could have been prevented, according to a bipartisan report the Senate Intelligence Committee released Wednesday.\nThe report also seeks to clarify accusations about the response to the attack by the White House. It blames intelligence agencies for incorrect talking points instead of administration officials, who Republicans have accused of covering up the reason for the attack.\n\u201cThe committee worked on a bipartisan basis to investigate the various allegations that have come out since the terrorist attacks in Benghazi in September 2012 and to get to the truth about what happened leading up to, during and after the attacks,\u201d Intelligence Chairwoman Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) said in a statement. \u201cI hope this report will put to rest many of the conspiracy theories and political accusations about what happened in Benghazi.\u201d\n( PHOTOS: 10 slams on Obama and Benghazi)\nThe report looks at the run-up and response to the Sept. 11, 2012, attack on the Consulate in Benghazi, Libya, that killed four Americans, including U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens. It includes a detailed narrative of what happened the night of the attack. The report is redacted in places, omitting some of the actions of CIA personnel.\nWhite House spokesman Jay Carney said the report does not change the administration\u2019s own conclusion that security should have been tighter in Benghazi.\n\u201cThis reinforces what other investigations have found, which is that there was not security to protect the four Americans who lost their lives,\u201d he said Wednesday.\nFeinstein told reporters Wednesday afternoon that the report proves that the State Department needs to do a better job assessing risks.\n( PHOTOS: 10 quotes on Hillary Clinton and Benghazi)\n\u201cI think where this report goes is that there needs to be better analysis within State of intelligence, and that they really need to move to see that these facilities are secure,\u201d Feinstein said. \u201cI believe to the extent I know that that is happening. There are other facilities that are potentially dangerous, and they know which they are, and I think they need to tend to that.\u201d\nRep. Mike Rogers (R-Mich.), chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, said that while he hasn\u2019t read the entire Senate report, he saw nothing that differed from the concurrent investigation he is conducting.\n\u201cI think their conclusions are very similar to the investigation that the House Intelligence Committee is going through,\u201d Rogers said.\nSen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) said he would like to see former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton testify again about the attacks. But he raised no issues with the report.\n\u201cIt was everything that we\u2019ve been saying,\u201d McCain said. \u201cWe\u2019re glad to see it corroborated. Nothing that I didn\u2019t know already.\u201d\nThe report concludes there was a \u201csignificant strategic warning\u201d about the possibility of an attack in the months leading up to it. The report details several intelligence reports, many redacted, that warned of an attack on Western establishments in Libya.\n\u201cDespite the clearly deteriorating security situation in Benghazi and requests for additional security resources, few significant improvements were made by the State Department to the security posture of the Temporary Mission Facility,\u201d the report states. The report finds that, unlike the building maintained by State, facilities run by the CIA responded more quickly to security concerns, but the steps that were taken are redacted.",

A significant element of this improvement is due to the resolution of a number of claims against the council and delivery of savings across services.\nThis underspend is in addition to Councillors recommending \u00a32.3 million is set aside to support essential and urgent repairs to the Dolphin Centre Multi Storey Car Park.\nIt is proposed that the underspend is transferred to the council\u2019s reserves and used to offset significant future funding pressures, including a loss of central government revenue funding of \u00a312 million by 2019.\nCouncillor Janet Walton, Leader of the Council, Borough of Poole, said: \u201cCouncil staff and Councillors have continued to work closely together to achieve savings wherever possible. Our robust financial management has ensured that we have spent \u00a3300,000 less than was originally planned. This will help offset some of the difficult financial challenges that lie ahead.\u201d\nCouncillor May Haines, Deputy Leader of the Council, Borough of Poole, said: \u201cThese savings have been achieved through the sheer hard work of staff. Their professionalism and dedication in continuing to seek out opportunities to make savings or negotiating settlements is to be admired.\u201d\nAdam Richens, Head of Financial Services, Borough of Poole, said: \u201cLooking ahead, the council continues to face enormous financial challenges and we are preparing for this now. The improved position will provide temporary support in managing the significant cuts in government funding, as well as enabling major investment in a town centre car park to support retailers and the economic prosperity of the town.\u201d\nThe final accounts will be presented to Full Council on 28 June for a final decision.",

        "raw_content": "This Was the Top-Searched Diet of 2016 (and Chances Are You've Never Heard of It)\nDecember 30, 2016 by Dominique Michelle Astorino First Published: December 28, 2016\nHave you heard of the GOLO diet? To be frank \u2014 none of us at POPSUGAR Fitness had heard this term until Google shared their top diet searches for 2016 . . . and \"GOLO Diet\" was at the top of said list. We had a collective \"wait, what?\" moment, before frantically researching to see what this was about.\nReal Women Share How They Lost 25 to 100 Pounds \u2014 Without Calorie Counting\nFirst stop: find the experts (aka, chat with our dietitian friends). They must know something about it, right? Well, RD and MPH Lisa Eberly had \"No idea . . . I work with 70 RDs who chit chat all day long about new diets and research, and I've never heard it come up.\" Interesting. We found that \"insulin resistance\" was a term that came up often with \"GOLO diet,\" so we asked Lori Zanini, RD and certified diabetes expert. \"Honestly, I have never heard of it until right now . . . I have never had any clients that have tried it.\" Lori also mentioned she was with another RD when we called her, who had also never heard of the GOLO diet. WHAT IS GOING ON?\nSo we opted for our own internet research. We were off to a suspicious start, but wanted to give this the benefit of the doubt. Maybe it's really helping people! After all, enough people searched this diet to make it the #1 search on Google in 2016 . . .\nAccording to GOLO.com, a \"scientific breakthrough reveals the real cause of weight loss and how to reverse it.\" Sounds promising! The cause in question? Insulin, said Jen Books, GOLO's VP of marketing. \"GOLO was developed by a team of doctors and pharmacists over the course of five years,\" Brooks told POPSUGAR, via email. \"Their research led them to develop a natural solution for weight gain based on managing insulin, the main hormone that controls weight loss, weight gain, metabolism.\"\nBrief overview: no counting calories, just managing insulin. They say this is the key to sustainable weight loss and maintenance.\nThe diet was created by psychiatrist Dr. Keith Ablow \u2014 who has a specialty in anxiety and depression \u2014 and a team of (unnamed) doctors and pharmacists, according to the website. The site describes the diet as a \"natural, healthy solution that specifically targets weight gain.\" Dr. Albow is a New York Times best-selling author, so that offers some promise as to the legitimacy of the program.\nShould You Be on the DASH Diet?\nBut . . . what is it? From what we've gathered, it's a diet intended to optimize your insulin levels \u2014 the program is entirely rooted in insulin regulation as a means of weight loss. You start a \"30 Day Rescue Plan\" for $39.95, which includes literature and a GOLO supplement intended to kickstart your program for \"adopting the GOLO lifestyle.\"\nHere's how they describe it: \"GOLO works to optimize your body's insulin levels, keeping them steady all day so you burn fat, maintain energy, and eliminate the crashes that cause hunger and cravings.\" The site also reports an average weight loss of 48.6 pounds in a year. So is it a matter of just monitoring your blood sugar levels and eating foods that have a low glycemic index?\n\"Its effects almost entirely depend on your genetics \u2014 So if you don't know your DNA it's a crap shoot.\"\nThere are three \"tiers\" to the program: \"Intervention\" (plant-based supplements), Meal Plan (\"Metabolic Fuel Matrix\"), and \"GOLO For Life (Roadmap).\"\nThe plant-based supplements contain magnesium oxide, zinc oxide, chromium, and a proprietary blend of roots and fruit extracts. GOLO's site calls it \"a weight-loss supplement that actually works.\" Could the promise of a \"diet pill\" actually be real? It's hard for us to tell. Consumerscompare.org noted that they also have not been able to find customers outside of company-controlled websites to ask. Brooks told us that the \"Release\" supplement helps to \"optimize insulin performance\" and \"provide metabolic support.\"\nOur registered dietitian Lisa saw the ingredients list and told us \"it's like a low-key laxative.\" She noted that this is effective for those with diabetes, or prediabetes. \"Magnesium can have effects on insulin resistance, but only in people who actually have prediabetes or diabetes. The only major effects in people with healthy insulin are diarrhea and potentially a calming and relaxing effect. It can lower blood pressure in certain circumstances, too. Its effects almost entirely depend on your genetics \u2014 So if you don't know your DNA it's a crap shoot.\"\nIf You've Been Considering the Keto Diet, This Might Change Your Mind\nAs for the meal plan, the site guarantees results, saying \"You will see amazing results in the first seven days and realize that there is a smarter, healthier solution.\" It's described as \"the right combination of proteins, carbohydrates, vegetables, and fat to promote weight loss.\" We haven't seen any recipes to verify this, but from from what we've seen on Pinterest, they seem to be in line with the low-glycemic index diets \u2014 something that Harvard has actually verified as an effective way to lose weight. The site itself refers to the recipes as simple, with insulin-friendly foods. \"Meals are based on our patented Fuel index which measures the metabolic effect of food so they are balanced to have the exact amount of protein, fat, carbohydrates that maximize energy without spiking insulin or storing fat,\" said Brooks.\nThe \"Roadmap\" is a \"FREE membership\" to myGOLO. GOLO guarantees that \"Whether you need motivation to get fit, guidance on changing eating habits, want to take charge of your health, or need to reduce stress or overcome emotional eating, we give you the tools to help you reach your goals.\"\nA diet that says you can eat bread, pasta, and butter \u2014 with no calorie counting \u2014 and a pill that boosts weight loss sounds very enticing. Especially one that was created by a doctor, that guarantees results within the first seven days.\nThe thing is, we just can't find anyone who has tried this \u2014 or even knows what it is. We found a few YouTube user reviews on their personal success with the program, yet still, we can't find enough substantial information outside the company's own website to give you the real go-ahead.\nIf you've got an extra 40 bucks a month to experiment, it doesn't seem like there are any adverse side-effects to this program.\nWeight LossDiet TipsNew Year's ResolutionsPopsugar InterviewsDiets",

The AALTCI study of claims data found that some 72.5 percent of claims that began in 2017 were for policyholders age 80 and over. \"Almost half of that (22.0%) were for policyholders who were age 90 or older,\" Slome notes.\nAccording to AALTCI, just over one in five claims (20.5%) began when policyholders were between ages 70 and 79. Policyholders between ages 60 and 69 initiated some 5.5 percent of newly opened claims.\nTo learn more about long-term care insurance costs and planning options call the American Association for Long-Term Care Insurance at 818-597-3227 or visit the organization's website at www.aaltci.org to find and connect with local LTC insurance professionals.\nAmerican Association for Long-Term Care Insurance\nClick here to view the list of recent Press Releases from American Association for Long-Term Care Insurance",

        "raw_content": "By Richard Stuart-Turner, Wednesday 14 June 2017\nCEO Matt Armitage announced St Ives' strategic review in March\nThe \u00a3367.5m-turnover group said the first four months of the second half of its financial year have delivered a \u201cmuch improved\u201d performance and its expectations for the full year remain unchanged.\nRevenue for its Strategic Marketing segment in the period was said to be approximately 12% above the equivalent period in the prior year. Excluding the effects of currency movements, like-for-like revenue growth in the segment was approximately 7%.\nThe group said it has been encouraged by the segment returning to delivering like-for-like revenue growth and the fact that the operating margin has improved significantly.\nTrading conditions in the group\u2019s Marketing Activation segment continue to be very challenging, due largely to the ongoing pressures within the grocery retail sector \u2013 the segment's largest single market.\nRevenue in the segment was flat in the first four months of the second half, compared to a 3% decline in the first half, but the group said the pressure on operating margin remains intense.\nHowever, it said cost-reduction measures already implemented within the segment are helping to mitigate the margin pressure.\nMarketing Activation includes POS and large-format specialists SP Group and Service Graphics as well as field marketing agency Tactical Solutions and print management wing SIMS.\nRevenue in St Ives\u2019 Books segment Clays was around 12% ahead of the equivalent period in the prior year for the first four months of the second half, compared to an increase of 15% in the first half. The group said there is continued pressure on operating margin in this segment.\nThe group said it is continuing to look for opportunities to further strengthen its balance sheet following its recent sale of a Cornish factory occupied by Wyndeham Roche. The \u00a34.2m sale, to a property company, is said to have successfully reduced the group\u2019s debt and created further headroom against its banking covenants.\nThe company's Peterborough factory \u2013 also occupied by Wyndeham \u2013 was also put up for sale three months ago. At the same time, St Ives chief executive Matt Armitage announced a strategic review that could result in the disposal of the group's printing operations, which have a turnover of around \u00a3220m, though uncertainty over a number of its major contracts could affect these plans.\nBut the group has said it is continuing to review strategic options for both its Marketing Activation and Books segments and is taking \"decisive action\" to improve efficiencies and reduce costs in these segments.\nIt said restructuring measures will still be implemented as planned before the end of the financial year while further reports on the progress of the strategic review will be revealed \"in due course\".\nThe board said the group\u2019s balance sheet remains sound and it has the necessary cash flow capabilities to support its investment priorities and to further reduce debt. It remains confident in the strategy currently being pursued and in the long-term growth opportunities open to the group.\nSt Ives has struggled in recent times. Group sales in the first six-month period of the financial year to 27 January rose by 5% to \u00a3195.1m, but the group posted a loss of \u00a326.8m after \u00a336.3m of \u201cadjusting items\u201d including a further hit on the value of its print assets with a \u00a323.9m impairment charge at Marketing Activation and \u00a33m at Books.\nThe group\u2019s share price has been falling rapidly since the beginning of the year, following a second profits warning, but it was up 32% to 49.5p at the time of writing, having descended to 37.5p yesterday (13 June). The 52-week high was 149.63p.\nAt the time of writing, St Ives chief executive Matt Armitage had not yet responded to requests for comment.\nUncertainty over a number of major contracts at St Ives could put a crimp in the group's plans to sell...\nSt Ives to initiate cost-reduction measures\nSt Ives has initiated further cost-reduction measures in its Marketing Activation segment, leading its...\nResults, PoS, Books, Large/wide format, Wide Format, Finance & business",

        "title": "Addendum to Government Accountability for Personal Information: Reforming the Privacy Act (April 2008) - Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada",
        "raw_content": "Privacy Act Reform\nAddendum to Government Accountability for Personal Information: Reforming the Privacy Act\nThis publication is also available on our Web site at www.priv.gc.ca.\nIn June 2006 the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada issued a comprehensive document summarizing the factors driving the need for reform of the federal Privacy Act, and setting out general proposals and recommendations for changes to the Act. This addendum provides further comment and substantiation for the position taken by the OPC in 2006 based on events of the past two years.\nEvents over the past two years have kept national security issues dramatically at the centre of public attention, with numerous bodies calling for improved oversight of the government\u2019s public safety and national security programs. The OPC will continue to urge the government to act on the recommendations that have been made in this regard.\nIn December 2006 the Commission of Inquiry into the Actions of Canadian Officials in Relation to Maher Arar released its \"policy report\", A New Review Mechanism for the RCMP's National Security Activities. In his report, Justice O'Connor made a series of detailed recommendations with respect to the review of the RCMP\u2019s national security activities as well as those of other federal departments and agencies. He concluded that \u201cincreased information sharing, increased police powers of coercion and increased integration among Canadian and foreign national security actors\u201d requires the creation of a new review agency to oversee the RCMP\u2019s national security activities, as well as a new review process for the other federal departments and agencies involved in national security.\nJustice O\u2019Connor observed that the case for giving an independent review body the mandate to conduct self-initiated reviews of the RCMP\u2019s national security activities is now overwhelming, given the inability of potential complainants to lay complaints, the threat that investigative activities may pose to individual liberties, the lack of judicial or other independent scrutiny, and the need for public confidence and trust in the agency being reviewed.\nIn his report, Justice O\u2019Connor also observed that the national security environment is complex and multi-stakeholder by nature, with each player subject to its own policy requirements. From the OPC perspective, this reinforces the need to provide a complaint review mechanism that is more comprehensive and citizen-centric. The architecture of oversight (both internal and external) must be commensurate with the apparatus of surveillance. Otherwise, who is watching the watchers?\nSimilarly, in its main report dated February 2007, Fundamental Justice in Extraordinary Times, the Special Senate Committee on the Anti-terrorism Act recommended that the government implement more effective oversight of the RCMP. It also recommended the creation of a standing committee of the Senate, with dedicated staff and resources, to monitor, examine and periodically report on matters relating to Canada's anti-terrorism legislation and national security framework on an ongoing basis. The House of Commons Subcommittee on the review of the Anti-terrorism Act submitted its report in March 2007, recommending that the Government proceed with legislation to establish a National Security Committee of Parliamentarians responsible for the review of national security matters.\nIn its July 2007 response to the House of Commons Subcommittee, the government stated that it will propose an approach to national security review that will meet the basic objectives set out in the policy report of the Commission of Inquiry into the Actions of Canadian Officials in Relation to Maher Arar and is considering options for an enhanced role for Parliamentarians as a key part of these proposals for an improved national security review framework. There has been nothing further from the Government concerning its specific intentions in this regard.\nAs the OPC has stated on previous occasions, the Department of Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness (PSEP) should be subject to the highest standards of privacy protection and accountability, with a stronger leadership role assumed by the Minister. This is only appropriate given the extent of personal information collection and processing within that portfolio. It appears that separate parts of that bureaucracy continue to work in isolation from one another.\nFor example, when one takes a horizontal view of privacy impact assessments generated by the Public Safety portfolio, it is clear that a \u201cwhole-of-portfolio\u201d view is not taken. In commenting on the PSEP enabling legislation, to both the department and the Parliamentary Committee, the OPC recommended that a Chief Privacy Officer be statutorily defined. The recommendation was ignored.\nThe right of individuals to know what information the Government has about them, and the right to insist that the information be appropriate and accurate, is a basic element of the right of privacy. The national security imperatives of the government have been contrary to the principles of fundamental justice by unduly and unnecessarily shielding critical information from the affected individual. The opacity of many National Security initiatives denies the very core of privacy: namely, the right of individuals to control and validate the information that is collected about them by both private and public organizations.\nIn a February 2007 decision, Charkaoui v. Canada (Citizenship and Immigration), the Supreme Court of Canada found that the security certificate scheme and the detention review procedures under the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act infringed the right to life, liberty and security of the person under section 7 of the Charter. The secrecy required by the scheme denied the named person the opportunity to know the case against them, and hence to challenge the government\u2019s case. The SCC observed that less intrusive alternatives were available, notably the use of special counsel to act on behalf of the named individual. Bill C-3 was tabled by the government in direct response to the Supreme Court decision, providing for a special advocate to perform the challenge function as to the confidentiality, relevance, reliability, sufficiency and weight of evidence. This is a welcome development, and corresponds to recommendations made by the OPC in the context of the review of the Anti-terrorism Act.\nIn November 2007, the Privacy Commissioner of Canada appeared before the Commission of Inquiry into the Investigation of the Bombing of Air India Flight 182 to comment on the privacy implications of various government programs relating to aviation security, most recently the Passenger Protect Program (the \u201cno-fly list\u201d). The OPC submission to that Inquiry canvassed in depth the circumstances leading to the creation of the PPP, observing that neither the public nor Parliament had a meaningful opportunity to question or challenge the legislation authorizing the Program.\nConsistent with the resolution signed by Canada\u2019s privacy commissioners and ombudsmen in June 2007, the OPC concluded in its submission that Parliament should review the justification for the program, the operation of the program, the impact on fundamental rights and freedoms and the adequacy of the current legal framework. The submission cited a number of ways in which the Privacy Act could be strengthened to provide the public with greater protection and remedies to meet the privacy risks resulting from this type of initiative, including stronger provisions for sharing of personal information with foreign governments, enhanced court review, and a comprehensive accountability framework for national security agencies.\nThe Privacy Act is at the hub of the informational relationship between state agencies and individuals. If the legislative framework that governs this relationship is weak, the entire edifice of accountability is undermined. Privacy is too important to be left to the vagaries of internal policy and management.\nIn a separate submission to the Air India Inquiry regarding the financial monitoring regime in Canada, the OPC commented that it was encouraged that the need for greater oversight over the operations of FINTRAC has been recognized. The Commission of Inquiry into the Actions of Canadian Officials in Relation to Maher Arar called for increased oversight of FINTRAC, as did the Senate Committee which conducted the five-year review of the Proceeds of Crime (Money Laundering) and Terrorist Financing Act. Parliament gave the issue enough weight to amend that Act in December 2006, requiring the OPC to conduct a review every two years of FINTRAC and to report to Parliament.\nIn February 2008 the OPC tabled its first special report to Parliament, documenting the results of the Office\u2019s audit of the RCMP\u2019s exempt data banks. These are data banks containing national security and criminal operational intelligence files which are sheltered from public access, depriving individuals of the right to see their own information. The audit confirmed a lack of effective internal controls by the RCMP over these information holdings, finding that more than half of the files examined as part of our audit did not properly belong in the exempt banks. It was evident that greater care was required to ensure that personal information is concealed in an exempt bank only when absolutely necessary. The OPC made a number of recommendations which have been accepted by the RCMP to improve management and internal review procedures concerning these banks. This will ensure greater transparency in the management practices governing Exempt Banks.\nThe recommendations suggested by the OPC in 2006 for amendments to the Privacy Act revolve around creation of a robust privacy management regime, particularly for agencies with a national security mandate, governing all aspects of collection, use and disclosure of personal information. A proper framework requires a full articulation of the fair information principles, with a defined role and accountability structure to frame the privacy leadership responsibilities of the head of the institution, and more stringent reporting requirements to Parliament.\nAbsent voluntary progress on this front, there is an ever increasing imperative to amend the Privacy Act to ensure greater transparency, accountability and oversight over the activities of national security agencies. Events over the course of the past two years strongly support this position.\nThe government\u2019s practices with respect to transfers of personal information outside the country have also received a good deal of public scrutiny over the course of the past two years, with active interest being shown by three separate Commissions of Inquiry \u2013 the O\u2019Connor Inquiry, the Air India Inquiry, and the Iacobucci Inquiry.\nEnhanced information sharing has been a key strategy in improving intelligence analysis since September 2001. Within government departments, between government organizations, from one level or government to another, or from one national government to another, there has been enormous emphasis placed on exchanging more information to enrich the work of analysts and policy makers. Unfortunately, privacy and data security safeguards have lagged behind as sharing of data has quickened.\nIn September 2006, the Commission of Inquiry into the Actions of Canadian Officials in Relation to Maher Arar released its report on the Factual Inquiry. Justice O\u2019Connor concluded that it was very likely that, in making the decisions to detain and remove Mr. Arar to Syria, the U.S. authorities relied on information about Mr. Arar provided by the RCMP, and that the RCMP had provided American authorities with information about Mr. Arar which was inaccurate. Justice O\u2019Connor noted that this inaccurate information had the potential to create serious consequences for Mr. Arar in light of American attitudes and practices at the time.\nNumerous recommendations were made in that report addressing the RCMP\u2019s national security activities and the information sharing practices of other government agencies. Of particular interest in the context of Privacy Act reform were the following:\nThe RCMP should establish internal controls to ensure that it stays within its law enforcement mandate when conducting investigations and collecting information, and that it respects the distinct role of CSIS relating to threats to the security of Canada;\nThe RCMP\u2019s agreements or arrangements with other entities in regard to intergrated national security operations should be reduced to writing;\nTraining for national security investigators should include a specific focus on practices for information sharing with the wide range of agencies and countries that may become involved in national security investigations;\nThe Minister responsible for the RCMP should continue to issue ministerial directives to provide policy guidance to the RCMP in national security investigations, given the potential implications of such investigations;\nA centralized unit with expertise in national security investigations (such as the Criminal Intelligence Directorate) should have responsibility for oversight of information sharing related to national security with other domestic and foreign departments and agencies;\nThe RCMP should ensure that when sharing information with foreign and domestic agencies it does so in accordance with clearly established policies respecting screening for relevance, reliability and accuracy;\nThe RCMP should never share information in a national security investigation without attaching written caveats in accordance with existing policy, specifying precisely which institution may have access to the information and what use may be made of the information; and\nOther Canadian agencies that share information relating to national security should ensure that their information-sharing policies conform to the appropriate extent with the recommendations made to the RCMP.\nOf equal interest is the work currently being conducted by former Supreme Court of Canada Justice Iacobucci, in the Internal inquiry into the actions of Canadian officials in relation to Abdullah Almalki, Ahmad Abou-Elmaati and Muayyed Nureddin. In January 2008 the Inquiry held a public hearing about the standards that ought to have governed the sharing of information by Canadian officials with foreign entities at the relevant time. The Privacy Act was not identified by any of the parties as a legal standard that governed the international sharing of information by CSIS and the RCMP. The fact that the Privacy Act, despite its direct application to matters pertaining to accuracy and sharing of information in this case, received no meaningful attention is evidence of the compelling need for legislative reform. Simply put, the antiquated nature of the Privacy Act renders it of little significance to the public debate on security and privacy in Canada. This puts privacy at a considerable disadvantage.\nIn June 2006 the OPC reported on significant risks to privacy stemming from the information sharing practices of the Canada Border Services Agency. The OPC found that the CBSA did have systems and procedures in place for managing and sharing personal information with other countries. However, significant opportunities exist to better manage privacy risks and achieve greater accountability, transparency and control over the trans-border flow of data. For example, many of the information exchanges are verbal, and are not based on written requests, contrary to CBSA policy and the terms of the relevant Canada\u2013US agreement. The Agency could also not with a reasonable degree of certainty, report either on the extent to which it shares personal information with the United States, or how much and how often it shares this information. Overall, the OPC concluded that the CBSA requires a comprehensive privacy-management framework to guide improvements to privacy related policies, systems, procedures and practices, including strengthening the monitoring of the day-to-day information handling practices.\nAnother instance of cross-border data exchange has been the Government\u2019s recent support for provincial Enhanced Driver\u2019s License (EDL) programs. These new forms of identification are designed to speed processing of travellers at Canada-US border points. Provincial licensing authorities issue the licenses but provide CBSA with the data of program participants; this data can then be accessed by US Customs and Border Protection personnel from CBSA servers whenever an EDL holder approaches a US border point. The OPC has urged the government to take privacy protections more seriously, asserting that verbal requests and administrative agreements are simply not rigorous safeguards to meaningfully protect personal information in a networked, digital world.\nA long list of recent data breaches in government departments across the US, UK and Canada make one point painfully clear: privacy protection cannot be left to chance, casual exchanges, vague policy memoranda and sloppy management practices. Strong, clear legislation is needed to set rules and boundaries. It is evident that the Privacy Act does not currently provide any assistance at all to government departments in managing their information sharing practices and agreements with foreign partners. While there has been cogent response from the Treasury Board Secretariat in the form of guidance on information sharing, privacy breach guidelines and a privacy risk assessment process for government outsourcing, more work is still needed. Until the Act is amended to provide an articulated control framework, it can be anticipated that results will continue to be uneven between departments, and that errors will continue to be made at potentially great cost to the affected individual.\nAs outlined above, it has been forcefully argued that government should hold itself to standards similar to those it sets for industry. This speaks to credibility, policy coherence and good governance. Data protection and privacy compliance is no exception. How government institutions handle, protect and share personal information should set a clear example to other organizations in other areas of the economy.\nAn emerging example of this harmonization is the area of data breaches. Currently, federally regulated public sector and private sector organizations are subject to guidelines which detail how they should deal with data breaches. However, these instruments are voluntary, non-binding, without basis in legislation and with no demonstrable sanctions for non-compliance. Enshrining these provisions into law would greatly strengthen privacy protections for individuals in Canada. In fact, Industry Canada has begun a consultative process to do precisely this for Canadian private sector organizations. In the not too distant future Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA), Canada\u2019s private sector privacy legislation, will in all likelihood carry requirements for the notification of individuals by organizations experiencing a data breach.\nSimilarly, the Treasury Board Secretariat (TBS) last year published its Guidelines for Privacy Breaches, covering the improper or unauthorized access to or disclosure of personal information as defined in the Privacy Act. While many of the process details run parallel to the breach guidelines in place for the private sector, they remain provisional and administrative. The President of the Treasury Board, as the designated Minister under the Privacy Act, is responsible for such guidelines. This means, while they are general requirements under the Privacy Act, they do not carry the full weight and onus of the law. It is the view of the OPC that these requirements should be incorporated into the Act itself.\nPrivacy Act Coverage\nFollowing passage of the Federal Accountability Act in December 2006, the coverage of the Privacy Act was greatly extended, resulting in current coverage of about 250 federal departments, foundations, agents of Parliament and Crown Corporations. This has added significant complexity and serious challenges to the OPC role in assessing privacy impacts within government, while at the same time necessitating more staffing and training for departmental staff responsible for Privacy Act compliance.\nPrivacy can be an extremely challenging file \u2013 the legal, technological and operational implications for programs can be profound. The OPC is currently engaged in discussions with Treasury Board Secretariat (TBS) and the Canada School of Public Service (CSPS) on a curriculum to support better privacy management across the Public Service of Canada. It is the view of the OPC that this curriculum should be mandatory for all government employees, from senior officials to line employees and managers.\nAll managers and executives are now required to have financial and human resource management training. Personal information management training should also be mandatory. The OPC believes that this learning curriculum should be integrated within a broader framework to include access to information and information management. The OPC is willing to work cooperatively with TBS and CSPS and lend its expertise to inform the development of this program.\nChanges of Immediate Benefit to the Privacy Act\nClearly a comprehensive review and re-write of the Privacy Act is required. There are however a number of immediate changes that could be made to the Act that would be relatively straightforward and would be of great benefit. Some of these changes would merely incorporate into the law existing Treasury Board policies. In other cases, some of the changes would correspond either to existing provisions in the PIPEDA or to changes anticipated in the context of PIPEDA Review.\nCreating a legislative requirement for government departments to demonstrate the necessity for collecting personal information. This necessity test already exists in Treasury Board policy, as well as in PIPEDA and is recognized internationally. For example, the European Union requires that personal data be collected for specified, explicit and legitimate purposes and that it cannot be excessive in relation to the purposes of collection. The collection must be reasonable and there must be a demonstrable need for each piece of personal information collected.\nBroadening the Federal Court review to all grounds under the Privacy Act, rather than being limited to denial of access as is currently the case. This would correspond to the current approach in PIPEDA.\nEnshrining into law the obligation of Deputy Heads to carry out Privacy Impact Assessments prior to implementing new programs and policies, including a requirement to submit the PIA for review by the OPC, and requiring public disclosure of PIA results, subject to national security constraints.\nEnunciating a clear public education mandate. This would be consistent with the current provisions in PIPEDA. Canadians need to know what their government is doing with respect to their personal information. The OPC can actively contribute to informed public debate if a clear public education mandate is enshrined in legislation.\nProviding greater flexibility for the OPC to publicly report on the government\u2019s privacy management practices, rather than being limited to the current mechanisms of annual and special reports. PIPEDA enables the OPC to disclose information about an organization\u2019s personal information management practices where this is in the public interest.\nProviding discretion for the OPC to more efficiently and expeditiously deal with complaints which have less systemic and societal significance, enabling the OPC to invest more resources in complaints that will have a significant impact on improving the state of personal information management across the federal government.\nAligning the Privacy Act with PIPEDA by eliminating the restriction that the Privacy Act applies only to recorded information, thereby excluding from the Act unrecorded information such as the collection, use and disclosure of biological samples (including DNA).\nStrengthening the annual reporting requirements under section 72 of the Privacy Act, to require government institutions to report to Parliament on a broader spectrum of privacy management responsibilities, including those under Treasury Board policies on Privacy Impact Assessments and Data Matching.\nThe entire framework of the Privacy Act needs to be revisited in accordance with our June 2006 proposals. On a more immediate basis, there are a number of relatively straightforward changes that could be made to the Act that would greatly advance the cause of privacy in Canada. These changes would bring the standards of the Privacy Act into alignment with more modern data protection legislation.\nIt is inarguable, based on events of the past two years, that a stronger, updated Privacy Act could have been instrumental in guiding government institutions and potentially even preventing many lapses which occurred. Instead, we have received no reaction or interest from Government in the two years since we issued our June 2006 proposals for reform.\nWe commend the House of Commons Standing Committee on Access to Information, Privacy and Ethics for its leadership in opening this important discussion.",

        "raw_content": "Outdoor Home Security Systems: 3 Facts to Surprise You\nThe things that go bump in the night are often written off after childhood. Monsters in the closet. Creaks and scratches at the windows. Sounds like a spooky story for most. Unfortunately, though, there can still be some bumps in the night, even as adults. But don\u2019t squeeze your pillow too hard just yet.\nThe safety and security of our loved ones is a hefty burden that we all gladly shoulder. Most of us would do just about anything for our family. So, when it comes to home security, why not make sure you have complete coverage and help at a moment\u2019s notice. With ProtectAmerica, you get just that. Affordable and effective home security protection. Let\u2019s take a moment to explore what a home security system can offer you and your family.\nAbout 83 percent of the burglars said they would try to find out if the home had a security alarm before attempting to break in.\nJust by virtue of alerting potential intruders that there is a security system in place, your possibility of a break in is reduced. Most burglars want to avoid being noticed, so the potential of alarms and sirens is a big no for most. In fact, if an intruder hits a house without being caught, they\u2019re likely to try the same house again. Yikes! This is not a trend anyone wants to be part of.\nWith Protect America\u2019s array of professional equipment, you can cover all the bases:\nWe strive to provide complete coverage for all our customers. With our price match guarantee, we will meet any comparable price, too, so you know you\u2019re getting the best deal.\nAn astonishing 34% of burglars enter through the front door.\nThere are more than a few ways to deter criminals from targeting your home. Barking dogs are one of the most effective for sending burglars the other direction. Knowing they are being watched on camera also tends to be a turn off for would-be robbers. We can\u2019t offer a pack of snarling canines, but our wireless cameras are able to cover major entry points, which robbers often target.\nAlthough an alarm system won\u2019t stop all break ins, it significantly reduces the amount of time they stay in your house, or even if they try it, at all. Reduced time in your home means reduced property loss. And if your our monitoring equipment is ever out of service, we repair or replace it, free of charge.\nIt\u2019s hard to put a price tag on the feeling of being violated.\nProtect America has been a nine time Consumer Digest best buy winner, with our price match guarantee listed as a highlight for consumers. We are also consistently ranked among the best home security systems by various security ranking services, such as Safehome.org which said \u201dProtect America is a top choice for customers seeking long-term value on wireless home security.\u201d\nAdding extra expenses can be a deal breaker for some. Fortunately, we have locked in rates, which ensure you\u2019ll always know what you payment will be. And, with payments as low as $30 a month, the price for piece of mind becomes minimal. We can even offer you a free quote from one of our Protect America security professionals. See what our home security systems have to offer for you and yours.",

        "raw_content": "Budweiser Super Bowl ad has immigrant being attacked by Americans\nRicardo Marques, vice president and executive for the Budweiser brand in the U.S., says the company\u2019s pro-immigration Super Bowl ad is \u201crelevant today,\u201d in light of President Donald Trump\u2019s executive order temporarily suspending the U.S. Refugee Admissions Program and his executive order intended to tighten security along the U.S.-Mexico border and enhance enforcement of U.S. immigration laws. \u201cIt\u2019s true, Adolphus Busch made an incredible journey to this country, and that\u2019s really what this is about. It\u2019s about his vision, his dream, everything that he doest to achieve that,\u201d Marques told AdWeek. \u201cEven though it happened in the 1850s, it\u2019s a story that is super relevant today. That\u2019s what we\u2019re honing in on; it\u2019s the pursuit, the effort, the passion, the drive, the hard work, the ambition, that\u2019s really what this is about more than anything else.\u201d However, Marques insists that the ad\u2019s placement during the Super Bowl is not an attempt at making a political statement. \u201cThere\u2019s really no correlation with anything else that\u2019s happening in the country,\u201d he said. \u201cWe believe this is a universal story that is very relevant today because probably more than any other period in history today the world pulls you in different directions, and it\u2019s never been harder to stick to your guns.\u201d There you have it America the Super Bowl is already looking to be an advertising campaign against American values and our nations National Security. Sports use to bring hope to the American people, but now professional sports are turning into an agenda campaign for the left, that it's just become unbearable to even watch sports in America. Advertising an ad with Americans attacking an immigrant really doesn't show how America acts towards immigrants, when even with the \"temporary\" immigration ban and our upcoming wall...The United States Of America is yet the most open country to immigration. However America is only open to immigration as long as it is legal. This is why red, white, and blue blooded Americans should just tune out sports anymore, because the sports world is just becoming an agenda to push anti American policies or make American values look evil. America is changing under Trump, and that change is getting back to American laws and values for once...So if you have a problem with that take you and your business out of America. What Budweiser doesn't understand with their own ad in this years Super Bowl, is the founder of Budweiser Adolphus Busch didn't come here illegally and also didn't support Sharia Law in America.",

        "title": "Preventing Healthcare Workplace Violence",
        "raw_content": "Preventing Healthcare Workplace Violence\nBy Katharine Dahl\nUpdated June 12th, 2018 - In June of 2017, an emergency room patient stabbed a nurse at a hospital in Southbridge, Massachusetts. The patient, who was later identified as Conor O'Regan by a Worcester County District Attorney, fled the scene, leaving the nurse with serious injuries. The nurse was airlifted to UMass Medical Center and was stabilized, while O'Regan was apprehended outside of the hospital campus by Southbridge Police. According to Boston News, hospital officials said the assailant had been through the registration process and was being directed for care. This incident is not uncommon in the healthcare field, which has an alarming rate of workplace violence.\nHealthcare is a noble profession, but it's often taxing work. Doctors, nurses, social workers, counselors, and technicians are under a tremendous amount of stress, especially in emergency units. In recent years, financial strain on these institutions has increased the difficulty of the work. Patients are often grateful to receive good care, but might be unaware of how dangerous working in healthcare can be. Recent studies show that workplace violence among healthcare professionals is far too prevalent.\nThe National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health describes workplace violence as \"violent acts, including physical assaults and threats of assault, directed toward persons at work or on duty.\" While most employee safety programs focus on physical assault or threats, verbal abuse and and harassment are equally capable of causing fear and stress for workers. Working in healthcare almost guarantees you will experience this type of workplace violence in your career, and all types of abuse must be considered when crafting a safety plan. Hospitals, nursing homes, and other healthcare facilities should be safe for patients, but also for the professionals working there.\nIn 2016, the New England Journal of Medicine published a comprehensive report on of \u201cWorkplace Violence against Health Care Workers in the United States\u201d. The statistics are alarming, and found that though healthcare and social assistance employees make up only 12.2% of the working population, nearly 75% of workplace assaults occur in the healthcare sector. These numbers don't account for potential under reporting in other industries, but the statistics still show a need for workplace safety reform in healthcare. Here are the a few of the noteworthy stats:\n80% of Emergency Medical Services personnel have been attacked by patients.\nHomicide is the second leading cause of workplace death for home healthcare workers.\n78% of Emergency Department physicians and 100% of Emergency Department nurses have experienced violence from patients within the last year.\nThe annual incidence of physical assault in a psychiatric setting is 70%.\nAmong nursing homes with dementia units, 59% of nursing aides reported being assaulted by patients weekly and 16% daily.\n46% of nurses reported some form of workplace violence during their five most recent shifts.\nBetween 2000 and 2011, there were 154 shootings with injury either inside or on the grounds of American hospitals.\nThese statistics might be shocking, as healthcare workers are four times as likely to sustain a violent injury on the job than workers in private industry. The rates of workplace violence in healthcare are also higher than those for retail, construction, or manufacturing. There are a variety of factors that contribute to the lack of safety for healthcare employees, and while these vary by healthcare facility, the level of risk is fairly universal.\nWhy Are Healthcare Violence Rates So High?\nThere are many reasons that violence in healthcare is so prevalent. There are many risks involved in healthcare, a profession that tackles difficult situations by nature. In order to address the issue, it's important to understand these challenges. In 2017, OSHA compiled a list of the common risk factors. Reasons included working with people with a history of violence or who are under the influence of drugs, the physical labor of lifting or moving patients, independent work style, poor facility design, insufficient infrastructure, or lack of adequate lighting, and lack of adequate emergency communication. The rates of violence vary by location, as healthcare facilities in areas with access to firearms or neighborhoods with high crime rates might be most susceptible.\nThe single greatest risk factor for healthcare employees is financial and staff shortage. Ever-growing demand for care puts a strain on healthcare systems, and staff is overworked as a result. In order to manage the demand for care, there needs to be an increased access to training and support for employees.\nStaff is not often given the appropriate amount of training to recognize or manage violent and aggressive incidents. New challenges in the profession - such as the opioid crisis, which poses new risks for employees, should be met with the appropriate trainging Without enough training these situations can go unnoticed and will continue. There is often a stigma against speaking up about assaults that happen within healthcare facilities. The violence is often tolerated and victims are discouraged from speaking up or discussing the issue further.\nThe staff shortages in healthcare facilities across the United States are also responsible for the crisis of violence crisis. Low staffs forces nurses to multitask, and can leave patients feeling they aren't receiving the attention they need or want. Neglected patients can lead to a hostile environment, as the longer a patient has to wait the more likely they will become aggressive.\nSimilarly, managing shift changes is also a challenge. One approach to meet this challenge is to use polling via a mass notification system as a way of identifying staff that are available to come in on short notice, if other employees call out. The poll can automatically close once enough staff have responded.\nHealthcare Violence Prevention Laws\nIn some states, laws have been passed to ensure that healthcare facilities have plans that protect their staff. In California, Cal OSHA recognized the growing trend of violence in healthcare, and proposed sweeping regulations in 2011. The regulations require every healthcare employer to create a Workplace Violence Prevention Plan and alarm or other similar system.\nIn March, Representative Ro Khanna and twelve other House Democrats introduced legislation intended to curb workplace violence in healthcare facilities. The initiative was called the Health Care Workplace Violence Prevention Act, and would direct OSHA to create a standard that would require health care facilities to develop and implement facility and unit specific workplace violence prevention plans. \"Health care workers, doctors and nurses are continuously at risk of workplace violence incidents \u2013 strangling, punching, kicking and other physical attacks \u2013 that can cause severe injury or death,\u201d Khanna wrote in a press release, according to Safety + Health. \"This is simply unacceptable. The Health Care Workplace Violence Prevention Act puts a comprehensive plan in place and is a national solution to this widespread problem modeled after the success seen in California.\u201d\nThe bill was largely supported by the healthcare community, including the largest union of nurses, National Nurses United. If passed, hospitals would be required to assess for environmental risk factors, patient specific risk factors, and staffing or security efficiency. This bill would address several key risk factors related to workplace violence in healthcare, and could make dramatic change in the system across the United States.\nStrategies For Violence Prevention In The Medical Field\nThe first step toward a safer healthcare system for employees is to reevaluate healthcare facilities for potential threats. In an interview with Safety + Health, National Nurses United Co-President Deborah Burger explained how doctors and nurses can help improve hospital environments. \"There are a number of interventions that can reduce violence in the hospital,\" Burger told the magazine. \u201cFor example, affixing furniture and lighting so they can\u2019t be used as weapons, maintaining clear lines of sight between workers while they are caring for patients, and providing easy access to panic buttons or phones to call for help. It is imperative that nurses, doctors, and other health care workers, along with security staff and custodial personnel, are all involved in the development and implementation of these plans.\u201d\nMany healthcare facilities are taking advantage of technology for preventative measures. Security technology can be especially helpful for dealing with staffing shortages. It's important that every hospital provides an easy form of communication between a patient and staff member. All the patient has to do is simply press a button to talk to a staff member. This not only makes workflow a little more organized and efficient but also gives the patient a greater sense of security and comfort. Another tool is a sound detector that can detect when a patient\u2019s voice sounds aggressive or something breaks and staff will be notified, before the situation escalates.\nTechnology can also help to improve communication in hospitals or other healthcare facilities. An emergency notification system can help keep employees notified, and is a proactive approach to emergency situations such as a natural disaster or active shooter.\nAn anonymous two-way text tip system can be a valuable tool in healthcare, allowing patients or staff to report any suspicious activity on the hospital campus. It will also allow employees a discrete way to report incidents harassment or o violence from fellow staff members to a human resources department.\nWorkplace violence doesn't have to be accepted as part of the healthcare profession. Hospitals and other healthcare facilities need to invest in the safety of their employees, as well as patients. By reassessing the hospital environments for risk, pushing for increased safety legislature, and leveraging technology, the sustainability of healthcare can be improved in the United States.\nKatharine Dahl\nWritten by Katharine Dahl\nKatharine, an enthusiastic, problem solver, leverages her 10+ years of experience in content creation, storytelling, and marketing strategy as Senior Director of Product Marketing at Rave Mobile Safety.

Originally, they weren\u2019t even meant to be enjoyed. According to a new video from Great Big Story: Flavors, the real purpose of the graham cracker was to suppress sexual urges. Wait, what?\nApparently Sylvester Graham, a prominent 19th-century Presbyterian minister, believed that alcohol, meat, sugar, and other fatty foods led to greed and lust. (I guess he didn't know that, for many people, the love of food and sex are at odds with each other.)\nGraham took to preaching that eating flavorless food was the key to controlling your sexual appetite. And that's why he came up with the original recipe for graham crackers, which were made with flour, wheat germ, and bran. The crackers contained no sugar and were boring, bland, and just all-around bleh. Despite this, graham crackers became pretty popular and, as the video points out, fans of the snack weirdly took to calling themselves Grahamites.\nSo how did we go from this grainy, gross concoction to the sweet, toasty squares of today? According to Great Big Story's clip, after Sylvester Graham died in 1851, the cracker went through a few changes until eventually, the National Biscuit Company, a.k.a. Nabisco, added honey and made it into the s'mores staple we know and love. Thanks for that save, Nabisco. (First We Feast)\nGraham Cracker Sex Drive",

        "raw_content": "March 16, 2012 /1 Comment/in Features /by Christopher Cotter\nThe South Fork Dam once stood high above the city of Johnstown Pennsylvania, erected to supply water to one of the many canal systems that made up the early American interstate trade route. Purchased by the South Fork Hunting and Fishing club in 1881, the massive body of water behind the dam, Lake Conemaugh, was made part of an exclusive mountain resort for the wealthy from nearby Pittsburgh. Over the next eight years frequent inspections found the South Fork Dam to have many foundational flaws, as well as a number of recurring surface cracks. With gilded aesthetics in mind these cracks were mended by rudimentary patchwork, a temporary slathering of mud and straw. On the rainy afternoon of May 31st, 1889 the dam melted under the pressure of the swelling lake, releasing a surging wall of water onto the city below. By the time the water receded 2,209 people had perished in one of the worst \u201cnatural\u201d disasters in US history.\nAs anecdotes go, this is a pretty good one. The impudence of the South Fork Hunting and Fishing Club contributed to the idea that by solving surface issues with a little patchwork the real problem at the foundation would equally be resolved. In the field of academia we come across this sort of logic quite regularly; more so, it seems, in the category of religious studies.\nSean Bean as Odysseus in the movie \u2018Troy\u2019\nIt seems fair to say that ours is a rather dangerous vocation, not dangerous in the way a dam keeper\u2019s job might be dangerous on an afternoon of heavy rain, but dangerous in that we bravely tread the waters of humanity\u2019s inner-most sacred beliefs and practices. This is not a gentle sea by any means. Tempests rise up unexpectedly, detouring our crossing with tangential distractions\u2014much like those which plagued that long adrift Greek hero, Odysseus. Like him, we too seem impassioned to return to something genuine and practical, longing to once again stand on familiar soil; and we are ever creative in our ways of doing so.\nRecently, Professor Jay Demerath took up such a challenge, which formed the basis for his interview with Chris Cotter. Promoting the replacement of the ambiguous term \u201creligion\u201d with the functional term \u201csacred,\u201d Demerath\u2019s novel approach at interpreting that which stands out against the profane or secular comes with two critical issues: definition and application.\nDemerath originally proposed this turn from \u201creligion\u201d to \u201csacred\u201d in his deliberately misquoted \u201cVarieties of Sacred Experience,\u201d nominally linking his amended term with the foundations of religious studies in William James\u2019 \u201cVarieties of Religious Experience.\u201d This calculated revision brings Demerath\u2019s proposition into the context of debate between experience and belief as designated by the modern ambiguity of \u201creligion\u201d and his novelized sobriquet, \u201csacred.\u201d As he states, \u201creligion is just one among many possible sources of the sacred,\u201d (Demerath 2000) and that the ambiguity which anchors itself to the definition of religion can easily be weighed by defining it substantively, while interpreting its consequences, \u201cthe sacred,\u201d functionally. This is a methodological proposition which focuses not on the encompassing importance of \u201creligion\u201d but rather on what it is that individuals\u2014or groups\u2014take to be \u201csacred.\u201d By divesting religion and sacred between substantive and functionalist, assigning \u201creligion\u201d to the \u201ccategory of activity\u201d and seeing the \u201csacred\u201d as a \u201cstatement of function\u201d both terms seem to work in their application\nThis is further demonstrated in his polythetic method of deciphering that which individuals and social groups set apart as being \u201csacred.\u201d In the interview, when asked how sociologists navigate the ambiguity of what is sacred or not, he suggests a sort of polythetic taxonomy when it comes to deciphering what is sacred to the people under examination. By developing a \u201ckind of a checklist of behaviors that are associated with what might be a sacred commitment,\u201d such as is found in certain categorical methodologies (Saler 1993, Smith 1996, Smart 1997), he believes we can properly decipher what \u201cpeople do, what they don\u2019t do, what they believe, what they don\u2019t believe, what they observe and don\u2019t observe.\u201d Furthermore, this alludes to a stipulation of terms, rather than a dependence on real definitions (Baird 1971). Both techniques reveal a method which assists us in accessing the \u201cpriority\u201d of the religious person\u2019s \u201ccommitments, the commitments in their life, and the convictions in their life.\u201d (Demerath 2012).\nHowever, Demerath is also navigating very dangerous waters here, steering between narrow straights where on one side awaits the swirling temptress of a definition of religion, and on the other the horrifically multifaceted monster of misapplication. For example, if removed from his sociological context, how does his term \u201csacred\u201d differ from that of \u201creligious?\u201d One of the advantages with stipulative definitions is that they must be anchored to a particular study, the borders of which Demerath\u2019s proposition seems to push against. Consider if we categorically formed a stipulative interpretation of the traditional term \u201creligious\u201d as pertaining to the consequences of the practitioner\u2019s \u201creligion,\u201d would we not be able to equally balance out the ambiguity found in \u201creligion?\u201d Would using a stipulated interpretation of \u201creligious\u201d as the function of a person acting under the substantive form of \u201creligion\u201d not be the same? While Demerath responds to a similar question in the interview by legitimating his use of the \u201csacred\u201d as something that does not need to transcend our world to some other-worldly deity, he is limiting himself to a \u201cdefinition\u201d of religion devoted to a transcendental relationship between man and deity. This seems, again, a difference between \u201creligion\u201d and \u201creligious\u201d as equally as it pertains to the difference between \u201creligion\u201d and the \u201csacred.\u201d This is an issue of definition and application. Where his turn from the sociology of religion to the sociology of the sacred succeeds and fails is within this issue. By pushing against these borders his stipulation begins to sink into the periphery of real definition. Fortunately he saves himself with the life-raft of an applicative example.\nEthan Quillen\nThe decision of United States vs. Seeger is about as close to a \u201cdefinition\u201d of religion the United States Supreme Court is legally allowed to make. The disestablishment clause of the 1st Amendment\u2014Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion\u2014is a collection of ten words which make the United States exceptional to religiously established nations such as England and Scotland. It also creates quite the conundrum when cases like these come to the Court\u2019s attention. The Seeger case did not occur ex nihilo, but was rather the result of the decisions in Everson vs. Board and Torcaso vs. Watkins, steps made by the court over twenty years of social and political change in a country seeking an umbrellic identity between the end of World War II and the turbulent second half of a decade that saw the assassination of John F. Kennedy at one end, and the resignation of Richard M. Nixon at the other.\nThis brief circumnavigation speaks directly to Demerath\u2019s application of the term sacred. When seen through the lens of American legal amendments, wherein the \u201cbelief in and devotion to goodness and virtue for their own sakes,\u201d and a religious \u201cfaith in a purely ethical creed\u201d amounts to a \u201ca sincere and meaningful belief occupying in the life of its possessor a place parallel to that filled by God,\u201d what is construed as \u201csacred,\u201d the \u201cultimate concern\u201d may seem counter to even the most liberal applications of \u201creligion.\u201d (U.S. vs. Seeger) By amending the qualifications of article 6(j) of the Universal Military Training and Service Act to accommodate Daniel Seeger\u2019s philosophical views, the function of Tillich\u2019s substantive definition, as accepted by the Court as a standard by which to measure the religiousness of the individual, \u201creligious\u201d and \u201csacred\u201d become stipulative suggestions, pliable by what might justify a sacred belief. Thus, in a nation devoted to a sense of individual sacralization, the nation of Sheilaism (Bellah et al.), Demerath\u2019s reassignment of transcendental \u201creligion\u201d with \u201csacred\u201d seems justified.\nWhile the legitimation of his using \u201csacred\u201d rather than \u201creligion\u201d seems justified in the above sample, it still seems a patchwork fix rather than a foundational repair. It should be said, though, that this is not so much a critique of Demerath\u2019s thesis, but of the idea in promoting a new term as the replacement of an old one. Perhaps this is due to the definitive style it seems to imply at the suggestion of \u201csacred studies\u201d rather than \u201creligious studies.\u201d New terms are not always the best way to fix a foundational issue such as the ambiguity of \u201creligion\u201d in a global context. Instead, we would benefit far greater by digging up and unpacking what we mean by terms when studying the practitioners who make them sacred in specific contexts. The stipulation of an established, utilitarian term like \u201creligious\u201d to mean the actions of individuals seeking what they deem foundationally sacred relieves the pressures of ambiguity just as equally as \u201csacred,\u201d especially because of its relationship and differentiation from \u201creligion.\u201d Perhaps a good argument against Demerath\u2019s contextual use of \u201csacred\u201d might be a change from the \u201csociology of religion\u201d to the \u201csociology of the religious.\u201d\nDefinitions of religion seem the ever-widening Charybdis in the field of religious studies\u2014in all its forms. In our contemporary world we tend to find ourselves more absent-mindedly sailing toward the yawning mouth of that swirling vortex known as \u201ca definition of religion.\u201d We need to be cautious with the application of new terms. We seem too often prone to kneejerk patchwork, slathering layer upon layer of temporary fixes, either impudent in our knowledge of foundational issues, or victims of deep denial. We long to resolve ambiguity by applying more ambiguity, when we should just dig up the foundation and rebuild. These waters are dangerous, and without precaution we appear more and more drawn into the riptide of circular academia where, once swallowed up, we run the risk of drowning in a sea of uncertainty.\nRobert D.

        "raw_content": "Cornwall > Redruth\nThings to do inRedruth\nVisitor information for Redruth in Cornwall\nThe origins of the town of Redruth date back to the 12th century. It lies at the heart of the former mining industries and the disused mine buildings in the area are evidence of this; look for stone built engine houses with their tall chimneys that still preside over the landscape. The name Redruth is said to have come from the fact that the stream was so discoloured with iron oxide that it ran red.\nEngineer William Murdoch, best known as the inventor of gas lighting, lived in Redruth from 1782 until 1798. His work with steam engines within the mining industry is honoured on \u2018Murdoch Day\u2019 when street entertainment, live music, a street market and a fabulous parade will see the town a riot of colour and fun for all ages.\nThose wanting to learn more about the history of Cornwall should visit The Cornwall Centre (Kresenn Kernow) in Alma Place, Redruth. Of particular interest are the Tregellas Tapestries, a series of modern embroidered panels that record Cornish history and culture from prehistoric times to today. Home to the Cornish Studies Library visitors can view old newspapers and photographs, research family history and browse in the book shop.\nThe Carn Brea Leisure Centre at nearby Pool offers a whole range of activities, from taking part in an aerobics class to zooming down a 25m flume in the indoor pool. And at nearby Stithians Lake there are opportunities to try windsurfing, sailing, rowing and canoeing.\nBrowse excellent places to go and things to do in Redruth using the options below.\nYou can also explore all of the Redruth venues on our Redruth Map.",

        "raw_content": "Theodore (Ted) Osesky\nIt is with deep sadness that we are announcing the passing of our beloved father, brother, uncle, grandfather and friend. He lived a rich, loving and happy life on a grand scale to 93 years young. Dad was a humble soul with family always at the center of his world while going above and beyond to provide service to his community throughout his life. He passed away peacefully at home with his family by his side on Wednesday, November 14, 2018. Born in Leonard, Manitoba on March 12, 1925, he was the son of the late John and Maria (Bulbuck) Osesky. From humble beginnings in Leonard, he went from an Orderly at St. Joseph Hospital in Port Arthur to work as a Funeral Director at Everest Funeral Home, which paved his way to becoming owner/operator of Fawcett Funeral Home, Fawcett Ambulance Service, a Flower Shop and Insurance brokerage in Geraldton, ON. for the next 36 years where he raised his family. Dad always inspired to do more, having already pioneered bringing an ambulance service to the district working with the Ministry of Health and being one of the founding fathers of St. John\u2019s Ambulance brigade. We have great pride in our father for his social conscience in bettering his community and serving in the following organizations over the years: Lifetime member of Rotarians, Royal Order of the Moose Lodge, 4th Degree Knights of Columbus, Member of the Geraldton Hospital Board, St. John\u2019s Ambulance Chair, Member of Legion, former Mayor of Geraldton, resided on Geraldton Town Council for 17 years, and many others. In 1977 Dad received the Honour Title of Esquire from the Order of Canada from Governor General Jules Leger for his years of service to St. Johns Ambulance in Ontario and in 2001 Dad was promoted to Commander of the Order of St. John, receiving this honorable accolade from The Right Honorable Governor General Adrienne Clarkson. In 1985 Dad became a Justice of the Peace in Ontario and moved to Thunder Bay in 1990 when he retired from the Funeral Business. He continued as Justice of the Peace as well as joining many other organizations such as Mental Health Assoc., active member of Rotary for 70 years, continued to be instrumental in founding new community ventures such as the Dew Drop in with Father Scott Gale and the Pet Therapy Program through St. John\u2019s Ambulance. Throughout his life, Dad loved spending time with his immediate and extended family far and wide with many trips back to the homestead in Winnipeg, Leonard and Russell, Manitoba to spend time with his sisters and brothers. Dad still had time to pursue favorite hobbies such as trips to camp, fishing, skidooing, saunas at camp, gardening and late-night fish fries, bonfires and poker games, golfing and curling. In his later years, attending Rotary became the highlight of his week whether minus 30 or not, he never missed a day. Ted is survived by his sister Katie Butcher in Kelowna, BC, four daughters Erin, Maureen (Jim), Kim (Ronald), and Sheila (Kevin), daughter-in-law Jennifer (Teddy) and his grandchildren: Adam, Nicholas, Jessica, Chelsea, Kathleen, Shannon, Matthew, Todd, Thomas, Ruben, Mckenna, Noah, Marti, Kaysa, Kyler, Tristan, Stephanie, Jamie-Lee, Brett, Taylor, Madisyn and Mikalea. Ted was predeceased by his parents John and Maria, loving wife Mary-Lois Elizabeth (McKenna), son Theodore John \u201cTeddy\u201d, brothers Mike, Joe, Peter, Nick and George, and sisters Sadie, Lena, Rosie, Vera, Marge and Doris. Special thanks to Dr. Anna-Ly Kald who attended to our dad for many years and for her compassion and guidance during his final journey. Special thanks to Spencer Hari and Sydney Gratz for their friendship and exceptional caregiving as personal support workers, both to Dad and the whole family. We would also like to thank Laurie Norris, Geoff Hall and Jennifer Roberts for their support and kindness. Thank you from all of us to the many friends, extended family, organizations and community members that inspired our dad and brought so much joy and fulfillment to his life. If anyone so chooses to Donate, we would appreciate The Dew Drop Inn and the Pet Therapy Program thru St. John\u2019s Ambulance as the recipients. Funeral services will be held on Monday, November 19, 2018 when family and friends will gather in St. Andrew\u2019s R.C. Church for the Funeral Mass beginning at 11:00 a.m. celebrated by Rev. Antoni Fujarczuk. A private family internment will follow at Sunset Memorial Gardens to rest forever more next to mom, Mary-Lois Elizabeth. Visitation for friends will be held on Sunday, November 18, 2018 from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. with Vigil Prayers being offered at 2:30 p.m. in the Sargent & Son Funeral Chapel, 21 N. Court Street. God saw you getting tired with a life well lived: meant to be. So he put arms around and whispered \u201dCome with me.\u201d He knew how much you had been through and he gave peace and rest. God\u2019s Garden must be beautiful because he only takes the Best. Our Father whom art in Heaven, Ted Be Thy Name. On-line condolences may be made at www.sargentandson.com.",

        "raw_content": "Texarkana Gazette: Senator's retro plan to frustrate hackers: Rely more on humans\nWASHINGTON\u2014Idaho Republican Sen. Jim Risch says it's time for a retro approach to protect the nation's power grid, relying more on humans and less on sophisticated technology as a way to thwart hackers.\n\"I'm convinced that the next huge incident in the United States\u2014not a big incident, but a huge incident\u2014is going to be a cybersecurity incident,\" Risch, a senior member of the Senate Committee on Intelligence, said in an interview. \"And as a result of that, we need to be vigilant as far as preparing to defend against the attacks.\"\nRisch said the U.S. should heed the lesson of the 2015 cyberattack on Ukraine's power grid: While it left more than 225,000 people without electricity, he said that hackers were prevented from doing even more damage because they couldn't gain physical access to all of the controls, with some of them manually operated by real people.\n\"Sometimes we do better than the robots,\" Risch said.\nRisch and Independent Sen. Angus King of Maine, another member of the intelligence committee, want Congress to pass a $10 million bill that would create a two-year pilot program to investigate more low-tech approaches that might frustrate hackers.\n\"More than a year has passed since we saw Ukraine plunged into darkness as a result of a cyberattack that cut electricity to hundreds of thousands of people,\" King said. \"Meanwhile, here in the United States, we have been too slow to take meaningful action to protect ourselves from similar attacks.\"\nUnder the bill, the U.S. Department of Energy's National Laboratories would take the lead in coming up with new ways to protect the nation's energy grid.\nThe Idaho National Laboratory is eager to participate in the project, said Brent Stacey, the former associate laboratory director of its National and Homeland Security Directorate and now a senior adviser to the lab.\n\"The hackers are always going to know more about the digital environment, it's just moving so quickly,\" Stacey said. \"But we as infrastructure owners in this country are going to know more about our engineering and our processes.\"\nIn November, the Idaho lab announced that its power grid was already being transitioned \"to a more adaptive architecture to enable greater flexibility in testing new ideas and technologies.\"\nStacey said one of the lessons of the attack on the Ukraine grid is to make sure that remote access to any digital system is secure and to find a middle ground in relying on manual controls and the fast pace of automation.\n\"There's a balance there, where we establish limits and alternatives as we go through this process,\" he said.\nRisch said Ukraine partially thwarted the attack on its grid only because \"they were not as sophisticated as the rest of the world today\" and had to rely on humans to operate part of their system.\nHe said he wants to send a clear message to cybersecurity and intelligence experts as they look for new ways to prevent a blackout: \"Don't overlook something simply because it's low-tech.\"\nRisch and King said their bill, The Securing Energy Infrastructure Act, has backing from Republicans and Democrats, improving its chances of passage this year.\nThe bill received a hearing last summer before the Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources' subcommittee on energy but then went nowhere before Congress adjourned.\n\"We should have gotten this thing through last year, but things bogged down politically\u2014this is a bipartisan piece of legislation,\" Risch said.\nKing said he hopes to \"advance it quickly in the new Congress.\" So far, the bill has attracted three other cosponsors: Republican Sens. Mike Crapo of Idaho and Susan Collins of Maine and Democratic Sen. Martin Heinrich of New Mexico.\nRisch said the senators could have a major ally in President Donald Trump, who last month signaled his intent to make protection of the U.S. electrical grid a top issue. Trump had been set to sign an executive order that called for improving the nation's cybersecurity but then postponed it.\nThe House is examining the issue, too.\nAt a hearing earlier this month, Rep. Frank Pallone of New Jersey, the top Democrat on the House Energy and Commerce Committee, called the attack on the Ukraine grid \"premediated and well-choreographed,\" taking down backup power supplies and jamming phone lines in an attempt to prevent operators from understanding the extent of the damages. And he said members of Congress \"owe it to the American people\" to ask whether a similar attack could be replicated in the United States.\n\"If Russia hacked our election, what's to stop them from hacking our electricity grid?\" Pallone asked.\nhttp://www.texarkanagazette.com/news/national/story/2017/feb/25/senators-retro-plan-frustrate-hackers-rely-more-humans/663017/\nPermalink: https://www.risch.senate.gov/public/index.cfm/2017/2/senator-s-retro-plan-to-frustrate-hackers-rely-more-on-humans",

Entry to the Q&A will be free for all ticket holders of that evening\u2019s performance of the show. ALLEGRO is running in The Large at Southwark Playhouse until 10 September 2016.\nWith an epic score by Richard Rodgers and a ground breaking book by Oscar Hammerstein II, Rodgers & Hammerstein\u2019s ALLEGRO opened in 1947 to the highest advance in Broadway history.\nAlmost 70 years later, this extraordinary musical is to receive its professional European stage premi\u00e8re, produced by Danielle Tarento and directed by Thom Southerland.\nALLEGRO is the third collaboration for the stage by Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II following OKLAHOMA! and CAROUSEL. This ensemble musical chronicles nearly four decades in the life of an Everyman, Joseph Taylor, Jr., from cradle through a mid-life discovery of who he is and what his life is truly about. The first musical to be staged by a director who was also the choreographer (the legendary Agnes de Mille), the unique structural format allows the saga to whisk us from Joe's birth through his childhood, from college dorm to marriage altar, and on to his career; from the tranquility of his small Midwestern hometown to the hectic din of big city life, in a series of vignettes and musical sequences dazzling in their simplicity and stunning in their impact. Ahead of its time theatrically, ALLEGRO remains timeless in its appeal.\n(Photo credit Scott Rylander)",

        "raw_content": "Hey, Kids, Let's Put On A Show!\nRodgers and Hart's BABES IN ARMS has never been quite what everyone thinks it is. It was the hit of the season when it opened in 1937, running nearly 300 performances, but essentially vanished thereafter. Little thought was given to the preservation of musicals in the 30's; a show either hit or missed and it was on to the next one. Between 1934 and 1940, three years to either side of BABES IN ARMS, Rodgers and Hart wrote nine Broadway musicals and four film scores, so there wasn't much time for looking back.\nMost of us were introduced to BABES IN ARMS by the 1939 Mickey & Judy movie, which retained only the title and two songs from the Broadway original (and one of them merely as underscoring). In the late 50's an entirely new book was written with the songs reordered, and that version has been performed ever since. Several attempts have been made to rework the original book into a more contemporary view of the 30's, but have either failed or never seen the light of day.\nLast year we were approached by Aubrey Berg, Chair of the Musical Theatre Department at the esteemed University of Cincinnati College-Conservatory of Music. He wanted to present the original 1937 version of BABES IN ARMS, as he so succinctly put it, \"\"in all its unwieldy splendor.\"\" Berg hadn't determined what the musical should be but wanted to rediscover what it really was. That notion appealed to us immediately. CCM musical director Roger Grodsky, with restoration expert Larry Moore and R&H Director of Music Bruce Pomahac, began coordinating and assembling Hans Spialek's original 25 piece orchestration, a meticulous process that took the better part of a year.\nWhen a few of us trouped out to see the show in January of 98, it proved to be quite a revelation. We knew that this quintessential \"\"Hey, kids, let's put on a show!\"\" musical boasts one of the greatest scores ever written, including such standards as \"\"My Funny Valentine,\"\" \"\"Where Or When,\"\" \"\"The Lady Is A Tramp,\"\" \"\"Johnny One Note\"\" and \"\"I Wish I Were In Love Again.\"\" What we didn't know was that the book, which is wildly satirical, surprisingly topical and a bit peculiar, still works like gangbusters.\nBABES IN ARMS is about a group of youngsters who ply their showbiz aspirations in an attempt to avoid being sent to a work farm for the summer. One of its many fascinations is the way in which the more raucous virtues that typify musical comedies of the 30's are peppered with socio-political satire that has continued to resonate for six decades. For instance, the son of a wealthy Southerner agrees to bankroll the kids' production on the condition that the two black kids (roles created by the legendary Nicholas Brothers) not appear in the show. Of course the rich kid gets his comeuppance. And in an ongoing and hilarious riff on socialism, one of the boys is all for \"\"sharing the wealth\"\" when he's broke, denounces the notion as soon as he has a couple bucks, and ultimately returns to his Bolshevik convictions when his fortunes fade once more.\nThe Cincinnati premiere of the new/old BABES IN ARMS was greeted with cheers by critics and audiences alike. The Cincinnati Enquirer enthused, \"\"The show is charming, the numbers sizzle, what more can you ask?\"\" while Playbill-On-Line opined, \"\"We're lucky to have a new' version of BABES IN ARMS.\"\"\nWe thought everyone should be so lucky, and are therefore making the original version of BABES IN ARMS available for production for the first time. It's possible that another show this fresh and youthful may come along some day, but who knows where or when?\nTom Briggs,\nDirector of The R&H Theatre Library\nFor the most authentic recording of the original 37 babes in arms, we recommend the 1990 concert version, conducted by Evans Haile for New World Records... BABES IN ARMS and other musicals by Rodgers & Hart are available exclusively through The R&H Theatre Library and we are always happy to provide perusal materials upon request.",

        "raw_content": "EU Reaches Final Agreement on Conflict Minerals Regulation...\nEU Reaches Final Agreement on Conflict Minerals Regulation \u2013 An Overview\nOn November 22, the EU Council, Commission and Parliament reached an informal final agreement on a conflict minerals regulation. Last week\u2019s agreement builds upon the \u201cpolitical agreement\u201d reached during June.\nThe regulation generally will require EU smelters and refiners and direct importers of tin, tantalum, tungsten and gold (3TG) into the EU to conduct due diligence using the OECD Guidance framework if they are sourcing from conflict-affected and high-risk areas anywhere in the world. See our earlier Alert for a more extensive discussion of the key terms of the regulation and what it means for downstream companies. Please also visit the Ropes & Gray Supply Chain Compliance and Corporate Social Responsibility Resource Center for EU source documents relating to the regulation.\nThe EU press conference and press releases following the final agreement were fairly light on substance, but, in addition to the above, they provide a few additional details and confirm some of the previously disclosed details of the regulation:\nSmall volume importers of 3TG will be exempt, although the threshold was not included in the public announcements. The regulation is intended to cover more than 95% of all EU imports of raw 3TG. Given the high value of gold in small quantities, the EU Commission has indicated that it intends to monitor the effectiveness of the regulation as it relates to gold imports.\nThe \u201cresponsible importer\u201d concept will be retained in the final regulation. A company can become a responsible importer by declaring in writing to the competent member state authority that it follows the due diligence obligations set forth in the regulation. A list of responsible importers will be published by the Commission.\nThe competent authorities in the member states will be charged with carrying out checks to ensure that EU importers comply with their due diligence obligations.\nDownstream Companies\nThe regulation will not require due diligence by manufacturers, importers and sellers of finished products and components. However, these companies will be encouraged to make voluntary disclosures. The EU Commission intends to develop voluntary guidance for downstream companies. It also intends to create a voluntary transparency registry where companies can report on their due diligence practices.\nConflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas\nThe EU Commission will draft a handbook that includes non-binding guidelines to help companies, including small and medium-sized enterprises, with the identification of conflict-affected and high risk areas.\nNext Steps in the Approval Process\nThe next step is for the final agreement to be confirmed by the EU member states. The Slovak presidency of the EU Council is expected to present the agreed text to member states\u2019 ambassadors on December 7, 2016. Early next year, the final regulation is expected to be adopted by the Council.\nThereafter, the final regulation will move to the Parliament for a vote. The Parliament is expected to vote on the regulation during the first half of 2017.\nThe regulation will take effect on January 1, 2021. This is a longer transition that the two year transition contemplated in earlier proposals. The transition period is intended to allow sufficient time to establish procedures and control mechanisms and prepare guidance. However, we expect that many larger downstream companies and the NGO community will push for earlier voluntary compliance.\nEmily K. Burke",

        "raw_content": "Was Cymbeline a real person in history? Here's what we know about the legend of this British king\nIn our current production of Cymbeline, the title role refers the Queen of Britain, played by Gillian Bevan. In Shakespeare\u2019s original version, however, Cymbeline is a male monarch.\nIf Shakespeare\u2019s Cymbeline is a little known play, the historical figure is even more of an unknown monarch. Many of Shakespeare\u2019s plays are based on existing sources or history, and Cymbeline, too, is loosely based on Cunobeline, a Celtic King.\nCeltic King Cunobeline\nCunobeline (approximately AD 10 to 42), lived in a period before the Roman conquest and ruled part of Essex and later Kent. He was called the King of the Britons (Britannorum rex) by Roman biographer Suetonius.\nCunobeline ruled over a prosperous kingdom. During his reign, there was an increase in luxury imports, such as wine, olive oil and jewellery. Historians discovered many coins minted during this time. The coins told us about the king\u2019s power, the regions he took control of and his good relations with the Roman Empire.\nIachimo (Geoffrey Keen) kneels before Cymbeline (Robert Harris) in the 1957 production of Cymbeline, directed by Peter Hall\nAngus McBean \u00a9 RSC Browse and license our images\nThe story of Cymbeline has very little to do with what we know about Cunobeline. The plot line involving Cymbeline, Guiderius, Arviragus and the Romans in Britain is based on a tale in the Raphael Holinshed\u2019s 1587 Chronicles. Holinshed briefly describes the life of 'Kymbelinus', an impressive soldier and a powerful king, whose friendship with the Romans was so great that he paid them tribute willingly when he could have refused to. His elder son Guiderius, however, refused to pay tribute to the Romans. This angered Emperor Claudius, who invaded Britain.\nDrawing of 4 Cunobeline coins from William Camden's Britannia (1607)\nDrawing by William Camden \u00a9 Public domain Browse and license our images\nCunobeline vs Cymbeline\nIn the end, King Cunobeline bears little resemblance to King Cymbeline. They share similar names, and Shakespeare borrowed the names of his sons from Holinshed. But it is Cymbeline\u2019s refusal to pay tribute that leads to the Roman invasion in the play, while the Chronicles records Kymbelinus\u2019 son Guiderius making the decision.\nIt's rare to see Shakespeare, who loves reworking older stories, create a world that is so much of his own. Cymbeline gives us an opportunity to look deeper into Shakespeare\u2019s imagination through a complex, psychological and unpredictable work.\nWhen Shakespeare wrote Cymbeline and the sources he used for the story.\nA list of well-known quotes from Cymbeline\nWas Cymbeline a real person?

Our local station here did an interview with Tom Daschle about health care. I\u2019m telling you, man, that guy is way out there. He\u2019s beyond out there. They\u2019re trying to sell that health care program. I\u2019m not buying it. To me it\u2019s like chicken noodle soup and all they have in it is chicken bullion cubes and maybe a few carrots and celery \u2014\nRUSH: Wait, wait, wait. Wait, wait, wait.\nCALLER: I don\u2019t see any meat and I don\u2019t see any noodles floating in there!\nRUSH: Wait just a second here.\nRUSH: What the hell is Daschle doing in Detroit?\nCALLER: He was being interviewed by our Frank Beckmann here, our radio talk show just before you come on.\nRUSH: Yeah, I understand that, but I mean what\u2019s he doing \u2014\nCALLER: I don\u2019t know if he was here \u2014\nRUSH: No, let me finish.\nRUSH: What\u2019s he doing selling health care?\nCALLER: Oh-ho-ho. Oh, I don\u2019t know, brother, I tell you, I was just leaving the house and I turned it on and I was a minute towards the end of it, and Frank was just going toe-to-toe with him, and he couldn\u2019t come up with facts, and, and then Frank mentioned the part about his brother coming down with that cancer, he was overseas in Japan, and he brought him back to this country for medical care, and Frank says, \u2018Was it because we have the best care here?\u2019 And he wouldn\u2019t answer that. Oh, I don\u2019t know, you know.\nRUSH: I think this is quite illustrative of something. The health care bill is passed. It\u2019s the law of the land, and Tom Daschle is in Detroit selling it. Meanwhile, Democrats are running against it all over the country, want no part of it, and yet Daschle is in Detroit. Detroit! Why do they have to sell anything Obama in Detroit? There aren\u2019t any jobs there. They are bulldozing houses, but they\u2019re still voting Democrat there. Why in the world is Daschle in Detroit selling health care? I mean that\u2019s as big an indication of how lost these people are. I mean, it\u2019s already the law of the land. Anyway, Bob, thanks for the call.\nRUSH: By the way, I found out what Daschle is doing. Daschle has a book out. Daschle is on a book promotion tour. That\u2019s what he was doing with Frank Beckmann at WJR. It didn\u2019t make sense. I mean I know he was originally going to be one of the health care guys, but to be running around now selling health care, it doesn\u2019t make any sense. He was doing that, I\u2019m sure, as part of his book, but what he was doing is selling his book, and let\u2019s just keep a sharp eye on how many copies of this lame book Daschle sells. I\u2019ll be very, very interested in that.",

        "raw_content": "The Battle Over Earmarks (Bribes)\nRUSH: This is Sunday on Meet the Depressed, David Gregory talking to DeMint. He said, \u2018You think the Tea Party actually cost the Republican Party control of the Senate?\u2019\nDEMINT: That is a very silly thing to do, David. The Tea Party are responsible for just about every Republican who was the elected around the country. This time last year, if people will think about it, we were concerned about holding our own. Many thought Republicans would fall below 38 in the Senate. So I supported all the Republican candidates, including Christine O\u2019Donnell. Unfortunately, she was so maligned by Republicans I don\u2019t think she ever had a chance.\nRUSH: She was so maligned by Republicans, she didn\u2019t have a chance. Gregory says, \u2018He\u2019s not with you. He\u2019s suggesting that it\u2019s more a question of discretion. The leader of the Republicans, are you prepared to go toe to toe\u2019 this is McConnell he\u2019s talking about \u2018and this is gonna be the big showdown with your Republican leadership on earmarks?\u2019\nDEMINT: Mitch McConnell has voted twice for an earmark ban that I\u2019ve proposed in the Senate. Just about every Republican who was running for the Senate this time ran on a no-earmark pledge and we\u2019ve had a vote where over half of our conference had voted for the ban before. Tom Coburn and I are leading the effort for this earmark ban, and we know John Boehner has committed to it in the House. We\u2019re not gonna have earmarks, so it\u2019s really silly for some senior Republicans in the Senate to try to block it.\nRUSH: Now, there are some Republicans, House and Senate, who don\u2019t want to get rid of earmarks. I\u2019ll tell you why in just a second. More DeMint. Gregory says, \u2018On health care, how do you go about dismantling that?\u2019\nDEMINT: You have to stop the funding of Obamacare, and over the next two years, show the American people what the real options are to improve the system we have now. The first step is obviously to defund it, and I think we can do that with Republicans controlling the House.\nGREGORY: But do you think repeal is realistic?\nDEMINT: Yes, I do. I think the next Republican running for president needs to run on complete repeal of Obamacare, because we really can\u2019t \u2018tweak\u2019 it, David. It\u2019s built on a platform of government control, and that doesn\u2019t really work in America.\nRUSH: Right. You just send a repeal bill up to Obama every week. Just send it up there! You debate it in the House every day. You make the Democrats defend it. Obamacare was on the ballot. Radical left-wingism. Obamacare was on the ballot, and it was substantively rejected. Make them defend it. Send that repeal bill up there every month, however often you can. Debate it on the floor of the House every day. Now we move on to Slay the Nation with Bob Schieffer. He\u2019s talking to Mitch McConnell. He said, \u2018House Republicans want to ban earmarks, and this morning on TV on NBC, Jim DeMint \u2014 champion of the Tea Party \u2014 said he wants to put a ban on earmarks. House Republicans want to do that, but you said in the past you don\u2019t think that\u2019s a good idea?\u2019\nMCCONNELL: The president, of course, endorsed the DeMint proposal in his press conference the other day as well \u2014\nGREGORY: Mmm-hmm.\nMCCONNELL: \u2014 which is not surprising because every president would like for us to appropriate all the money and send it to them and let \u2019em spend it any way they want to. The earmark issue is about discretion, about an argument between the executive branch and the legislative branch over how funds should be spent. The stimulus bill that passed last year, the almost trillion-dollar stimulus bill, was riddled with executive branch earmarks. As you can see, it\u2019s a lot more complicated than it appears.\nRUSH: Now, the argument against\u2026 Well, the people who are a little squishy on getting rid of earmarks say, \u2018Look, it doesn\u2019t amount to anything. It\u2019s less than one-tenth of 1% of the budget. It\u2019s silly to plant the flag on earmarks.\u2019 Yeah, I agree if the objection to earmarks is simply to save money. But that\u2019s not the real problem with earmarks. The problem with earmarks is that they are used as bribes to thwart the will of the people. If there were no earmarks, you wouldn\u2019t had the Cornhusker whatever it was and you wouldn\u2019t-a had that Ben Nelson being bought off for his health care vote, and all of it would have been academic. The problem with earmarks is that they are used \u2014 and members of the Senate and House love this. They\u2019re used as bribes. \u2018Okay, Ben! You don\u2019t like health care? Well, how about if we send a little earmark for Nebraska your way? We\u2019re gonna exempt you from it for ten years.\u2019\n\u2018Oh, Good Lord, I love that! I get reelected.\u2019 The Cornhusker kickback. I mean, that\u2019s classic illustration of what\u2019s wrong with earmarks, and this is why senators want them. Louisiana Purchase. Do you realize without earmarks they\u2019d-a gotten nowhere on health care, because they\u2019re just bribes? So earmarks are undemocratic. Earmarks are used to thwart the will of the people. Ben Nelson, Blanche Lincoln in Arkansas. They are used to buy votes. They are used to change the votes of elected officials who are prepared to vote the right way to represent their constituents. Here comes the earmark, and they think that they can persuade their constituents, \u2018Hey, look what I brought home for you here!\u2019 (interruption)\nWhat was that, Mr. Snerdley? We have to\u2026? (interruption) Yeah, that\u2019s what I\u2019m saying. Some of the Republicans like earmarks and the bribing. Yeah. Does anybody doubt that\u2019s what they\u2019re for? Look, in terms of saving dollars, it\u2019s like spitting in the ocean. If you eliminated all the earmarks the effect on the budget, you couldn\u2019t even see it. But the purpose of earmarks is bribery, and of course then how would Congress survive without bribes? Kickbacks, that kind of thing. Well, it would be fun to see how Congress would survive without bribes. But does anybody disagree with me that that\u2019s the real purpose of an earmark? They\u2019re not budget busters. It\u2019s how you get a bridge to nowhere. It\u2019s how the will of the people gets thwarted. Without earmarks you wouldn\u2019t-a had enough votes for health care in the Senate, I don\u2019t care what Pelosi did in the House.",

        "raw_content": "The groundwater relied on by more than 300 water systems is often contaminated. Many have unsafe levels of arsenic, which can cause cancer and other serious illnesses.\nOther groundwater wells have unsafe levels of nitrates, the result of a buildup of fertilizer essential to agriculture or of animal manure. Drinking water with high concentrations of nitrates can cause serious illness in infants and children by impeding the ability of their blood to carry oxygen.\nThe families who rely on these unsafe water systems are forced to buy bottled water for drinking, cooking and washing, even as they pay monthly water bills. Some families are spending as much as 10 percent of their incomes on water.\nThe solution is for these small water systems to treat the water so that it is safe when it reaches customers\u2019 taps \u2013 a challenge they cannot possibly meet with their own limited resources.\nThe state water bond in 2014 provided some emergency funding and more is included in another water bond that will go before voters in June. But these funds cannot be used to help communities afford the ongoing cost of providing safe drinking water.\nThe only sustainable solution is to create an ongoing source of revenue. SB 623 creates such a fund, and does so equitably.\nIt establishes a small fee of less than $1 a month that all water users would pay, in much the same way that households have long paid a small monthly surcharge on their utility bills to ensure that low-income residents have affordable electricity.\nIn addition, with the support of such influential farming groups as the Agricultural Council of California, it establishes a small fee on agricultural users to address nitrate contamination as they continue to reduce the impacts of nitrates on groundwater.\nIt took years of discussion and negotiation to forge a solution to an unconscionable public health crisis that has no place in California. In 2017, that solution came together. In 2018, let us put it to work.\nJonathan Nelson is policy director of the Community Water Center and can be contacted at jonathan.nelson@communitywatercenter.org.

        "raw_content": "Meditation refers to both a process and a state. In traditional meditative practices, the state is one of absorption in content-less awareness. The process to achieve this state is also referred to as meditation. In the psychology literature, the process has been categorized into two types. One is concentrative meditation which involves focusing on something rudimentary such as one\u2019s breath while repeatedly bringing one\u2019s attention back to it whenever attention drifts. The second is mindfulness-based meditation, which involves being aware of any thoughts that may come into the mind as a detached observer. Both processes have the beneficial side-effects of reducing mental chatter and increasing concentration. Incidentally, these are components that would promote learning.\nLearning can be thought of as the acquisition, storage, and transformation of knowledge. These are processes that require many specific cognitive functions. Particularly, attention, memory consolidation, and the subsequent retrieval are key. Attention allows us to attenuate the large amounts of information coming in through our senses so that we can focus on what we want to without the interference of other sensory stimuli. What is often not recognized is that internal distractions, or mind-wandering, are just as much of an interference.\nResearchers have discovered a correlation between the internal mind-wandering state and specific brain structures known as the default mode network (DMN). Generally, this network is active whenever we are not engaged in anything and becomes relatively deactivated whenever we are attempting to achieve a goal. Interestingly, DMN activation has also been observed when mind wandering interferes with people\u2019s attempt at being goal-directed (Mason et al., 2007). Moreover, one group of researchers found that their ADHD subjects had decreased coherence within this network when compared to a control group (Uddin et al, 2008). Even more interesting, is that experienced meditators, compared to non-meditators, have less activation and greater coherence in the DMN, both at rest and while engaged in a task (Brewer et al., 2011).\nThe presence of mind wandering not only affects attention, but also memory consolidation. Consider the common experience of learning something in class but forgetting it by the time the test comes around. This is in part a failure of memory consolidation, or the stabilization of a memory trace after initial acquisition (Dudai, 2004). Many factors have been implicated to account for the variability of how much we remember. The presence of interfering mental stimuli that conflicts with the memory trace is one such factor (Sheth et al., 2009). One pathway in which meditation improves learning outcomes is through its capacity to decrease mental interference.\nIn addition to mind wandering, stress can also be thought of as mental interference. It is like a tax on working memory. This has been demonstrated in students solving math problems under the pressures of monetary incentives, peer pressure, or potential social evaluation (Beilock & Carr, 2001, 2005). When put under pressure, students who had above average working memory capacity chose to use less successful and less memory intensive strategies to solve math problems, thus resulting in poorer results (Beilock & DeCaro, 2007). A group of researchers studied the effects of meditation on U.S. Marines over an 8-week period as they prepared for deployment to Iraq. Over the training period, Marines who rarely practiced suffered significant degradation in working memory capacity where as those who spent more time meditating demonstrated modest improvements in working memory capacity (Jha & Stanley, 2010). This suggests that meditation practice may protect against degradation in working memory capacity within a stressful environment.\nRecently, schools have been eliminating many \u201cnon-essential\u201d subject areas from student\u2019s curriculum focusing, rather, on the subject areas that are assessed by high stakes testing. I see this as short-sided and counter intuitive. There are a host of skills not explicitly taught in many schools that directly influence students\u2019 capacity to learn and be optimal problem solvers. Meditation is certainly one such skill. In light of the evidence presented here, imagine the mileage that can be obtained from common math and reading instruction if that instruction was occurring alongside meditation training. Imagine the long-term global impact it would have on a student\u2019s life if this training began from the pre-school or elementary years!\nBeilock, S. L., & Carr, T. H. (2001).

        "raw_content": "I wanted to share few impressions and reflections after being in New York for a few days sharing the Waddie Welcome and the Beloved Community story and looking for allies and innovation\u2026 oh, and eating lox and bagels!\nThe story of Waddie Welcome and the Beloved Community captured all three audiences we met. The characters, Mr. Welcome, Ms. Reeves, Lester Johnson, Debra Selman and others, speak to people in powerful ways. New York City is a big place, but the neighborhoods are strong and dense and full of interesting people who see each other every day on the streets rather than driving in cars.\nNew Yorkers know about community, and they know about being with people who don\u2019t look just like they do. New Yorkers got Waddie Welcome and the Beloved Community. It slowed them down and gave them a chance to think deeply. One young administrator said, \u201cI think my attention deficit would be cured if I just listened to soft Southern voices.\u201d Savannah offers insight and inspiration to New York.\nThe organizations we visited were huge by Savannah standards. The smallest agency had a $7,000,000 budget and the larger agency had a $250,000,000 budget. In both organizations innovation was being created by a small group of people who were letting go of the status quo and finding a new way to go. These were very small efforts, fragile, but clearly intentional. Intentional, as in people having to make calculated and heart-felt decisions about how to invest in community engagement amidst the soul crushing pressure of the state\u2019s Medicaid regulations and limitations.\nOne example of this was a shift away from thinking about community inclusion toward the idea of community engagement. Community inclusion is an important and proper goal. People with disability labels have been excluded and expected to \u201cbe with their own kind\u201d in many ways for many decades. Folks working on community inclusion have often felt like they were standing outside shouting, \u201cLet us come to the party. Let us in.\u201d\nA small group of people in New York have shifted their focus toward community engagement. Here\u2019s the difference. A group of people created an event called IMAGINE A WORLD THAT WORKS FOR EVERYONE where they invite all sorts of gardening, neighborhood, artistic, civic, teen, and other groups to come together and co host a big celebration. As people work together to plan and create the celebration, something that benefits the entire community, they notice that they are working side by side with some people who tend to be excluded because of how we have excluded people with disability labels.\nThe people in the organization focus on creating spaces where people engage with one another rather than solely looking for ways to include/insert a person into an existing group. These folks are saying, \u201cWe ARE the party!\u201d New York offers insight and inspiration to Savannah.\nThis is interesting to think about in terms of people who are involved in citizen advocacy matches. There are two big questions that guide our work in citizen advocacy:\nWhat can people come to mean to one another? A question that goes to the heart of relationship\u2026 and those of you who are involved in citizen advocacy matches each answer this question in your own way.\nWhat can people come to mean to the common good? A question that asks people to look for ways to participate in and contribute to civic life and our trip to New York helped us see some examples of people working together for the good of the larger community.\nCan we imagine\u2026\nAn advocate and a prot\u00e9g\u00e9 organizing a Study Team to look at accessibility issues here in Savannah?\nAn advocate and a prot\u00e9g\u00e9 working together to develop a Neighborhood Newsletter for the building that the prot\u00e9g\u00e9 lives in?\nAn advocate and a prot\u00e9g\u00e9 who live near one another getting a few folks from each neighborhood together to work on creating a Tool Bank for everyone in the neighborhood?\nHere are a couple of new questions that New York and Savannah can share as we look toward the future:\nHow do we move toward valuing difference, to create a different and better world for all of us?\nHow do we move from collecting people as clients to connecting people to the opportunities and obligations of shared citizenship?\nHappy to brew up some coffee or crack open a beer or two to think about this together!",

But 9/11 and the war in Iraq have made signing up a more complicated decision.\nAvenamar Cruz grew up in Atopoltitlan (Ah-toh-poh-tee-TLAHN), a little town in the Mexican state of Puebla that he left when he was 17. Cruz, 36, now lives in New York and works in a wholesale produce market in the Bronx, but he continues to take an active part in the life of Atopoltitlan, helping to raise Last June, Katherine Jordan was filling her scrapbook with memories of her high-school years. By the end of August, she was set to graduate from U.S. Army basic training in South Carolina. Jordan, 18, says she joined the Army because she wanted to be part of something bigger than herself, bigger than her hometown of Lyndon, Kan., pop. 1,000.\nThirty miles from Lyndon, in Topeka, James Nelson, 19, got the idea of enlisting from his probation officer. Slated to start basic training this month, he hopes the Army will help him to straighten out his life and to stop, as his mother says, doing nothing all day aside from playing CD's and smoking cigarettes.\nAnd down the road, in Lawrence, Julie Reese, 23, recently laid off from her job mowing lawns, feels the Army will help her find her way. She is hoping the Army will overlook her low scores on her entrance exam and allow her to enlist.\nJordan, Nelson, and Reese are a few of the people being recruited in an unremarkable office building in an anonymous strip mall in Kansas, one of more than 1,600 Army recruitment stations across the country.\nThe Impact of Iraq\nThe world of recruiting has shifted significantly. Gone, recruiters say, are the people looking mainly for easy cash to pay for college. Gone also, they say, are those who covet signing bonuses of up to $20,000 but hope never to leave their base. And gone are those who think enlisting in the Reserve or the National Guard will mean a few weekends of training in a park.\nThe war in Iraq has changed the implications of signing up, and some potential soldiers' families have tougher questions when recruiters call \u2014 or do not want to hear the pitch at all.\n\"Parents will tell us all the time that 'Johnny's not joining!' and just hang up on us,\" says Sgt. First Class John J. Stover, a recruiter at the station in Topeka. \"The difference, \"Stover says, \"is that no one has ever recruited during a sustained war.\"\nOfficials at Army Recruiting Command at Fort Knox, Ky., have said the Army is on pace to bring in nearly 100,000 soldiers for active duty and the Reserves by October, but military officials worry about meeting recruitment goals in the years ahead, with the Army's continuing presence in Iraq, Afghanistan, and elsewhere in the world.\nTo attract candidates, recruiters are pitching shorter enlistments, of 15 months instead of 2 years; a buddy option, which lets enlistees serve alongside a friend; and a reminder that many of the Army's 211 jobs are far from the front lines (euphonium player in the band, for instance).\nFor some recruits, the prospects of war and the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, have become powerful motivators to sign up. \"I didn't sign up to sit behind a desk,\" says Andrew Limbocker, 18, of Eskridge, Kan., who reported to the Topeka office not long ago.\nBut others, like Jordan, Nelson, and Reese, say they haven't thought much about Iraq. Although administration officials have said they will keep 135,000 troops there through 2005, these recruits are philosophical about the dangers that may lie ahead.\n\"You could get shot going to the gas station,\" says Jordan.\nCaptain Eric O. Hinckley, who commands recruiting in the 41,000 square miles that make up the northern half of Kansas, says his 22 recruiters should never lie, especially when it comes to the question of service in Iraq.\n\"I challenge my guys to be honest and say there is a possibility that you may be deployed,\" he says. \"A soldier should not be told that he was never going to deploy. However, it would also be false to promise, 'You are going.' I guess the key is to say, 'You might be called up at some point, but you may not.' \"\nMost recruits require six months to two years of training to be eligible to be sent to war, Hinckley says.\nHe declined to say how many recruits his region is assigned to find in a year, though he acknowledged his recruiters try to enlist one or two soldiers each month. He says he prefers not to think of people as numbers.\nRolling a Doughnut\nStill, numbers are a reality in the recruiting business. A month-by-month breakdown is posted in Hinckley's conference room. His recruiters swap stories of their best months and their worst, when they failed to sign up anyone, or \"rolled a doughnut,\" in the language of recruiting.\nEven in wartime, Hinckley says, the Army has not lowered its standards. All recruits must take the Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery examination, a standardized test like the SAT; a physical test; and a criminal-background check. Drug use and tattoos that show outside their uniform are barred.\nNelson, the recruit from Topeka, was convicted last year of misdemeanor battery (he says he punched someone trying to attack his girlfriend). Recruiters say his misdemeanor shouldn't prevent him from enlisting.\nReese, the woman laid off from her lawn-mowing job recently, has failed the Army's entrance test five times, due, she says, to a learning disability.\nIn June she asked the Army to waive the test requirements \u2014 something it does in a small number of cases. Now she's waiting to hear the decision.\nA friend of Reese's returned from Iraq recently. He told her that if she is sent to Iraq, she should be ready to see things she has never seen before. But Reese says she has spent little time weighing his words. \"To be honest,\" she says, \"I really haven't thought about going over. \"For now, it is all about getting in.",

        "raw_content": "Teen HPV Vaccine Does Not Spur Riskier Sex\nCounter to the fears of some parents, teen girls who are vaccinated against the sexually transmitted human papillomavirus do not go on to catch more STDs than their peers\n(Reuters Health) \u2013 Counter to the fears of some parents (and a few doctors), teen girls who are vaccinated against the sexually transmitted human papillomavirus (HPV) do not go on to catch more sexually transmitted diseases than their peers, according to a large new study.\nSome parents have been hesitant to have their teens vaccinated for fear that they would be emboldened to have more, and riskier, sex \u2013 the kind that can put them at risk for sexually transmitted diseases (STDs).\nThe HPV vaccine has been available in the U.S. since 2006 and is recommended for all preteen boys and girls at age 11 or 12, so they have time to develop an immune response before becoming sexually active. But by 2013, less than 40 percent of U.S. girls age 13 to 17 had received all three doses of the vaccine, the authors of the new study point out.\nUsing the rate of STDs as an indicator of risky sexual behavior, there doesn\u2019t appear to be a connection with the vaccine, researchers say.\n\u201cThe vast majority of parents don\u2019t think this is an issue,\u201d said Dr. Anupam B. Jena, who\u2019s with the Department of Health Care Policy at Harvard Medical School in Boston. \u201cBut 10 to 20 percent of parents and at least some pediatricians think that this could be an issue.\u201d\nThe recommended three doses of the vaccine protect against the two strains of HPV responsible for most cervical, anal and vaginal cancers. But even with the most recent data, less than half of teens have gotten the full three-shot series, Jena told Reuters Health by phone.\nHe and his co-authors analyzed insurance data on more than 200,000 teen girls from 2005 to 2010. Less than three percent had received the vaccine by the end of 2006, which increased to more than 25 percent by 2010.\nIn the year before they were vaccinated, about four of every 1,000 girls experienced a sexually transmitted disease (STD), such as Chlamydia, gonorrhea, herpes, human immunodeficiency virus or syphilis. Among girls who weren\u2019t vaccinated, about three of every 1,000 had contracted one of these infections in the past year.\nBut over the following year, STDs became more common for both groups of girls, rising to more than six of every 1,000 vaccinated teens and more than four of every 1,000 unvaccinated teens, according to results in JAMA Internal Medicine.\nBecause rates of these infections increased in both groups as the girls got older, the HPV vaccine was not tied to any extra increase in STDs, the authors write. Those who were vaccinated may have started having sex earlier, which led to their parents or doctors recommending the vaccine, and which would explain the higher STD rate before and after the shots, they write.\nQuite a bit of research has been done on the potential \u2018behavioral compensation\u2019 that may follow sex education, free condom programs, or other safe-sex interventions, and it seems from most of the studies like these efforts do not lead to riskier sexual behavior, Jena said.\nStill, \u201cit\u2019s not an unreasonable concern for parents or policymakers to have,\u201d he said. \u201cThat\u2019s why you need studies like this.\u201d\nHopefully, the results of this very large study of U.S. girls will dispel some of those concerns, he said.\nSome people have been uneasy with the idea of recommending an STD vaccine for kids as young as 11 or 12, according to Robert A. Bednarczyk of Emory University in Atlanta, who wrote a commentary in the journal.\n\u201cThey mention not feeling comfortable talking about sex with an 11 year old,\u201d Bednarczyk told Reuters Health by phone. \u201cBut if you\u2019re giving a tetanus and diphtheria shot, are you going into extended discussions about transmission?\u201d\nEleven and 12 year olds are already coming to the doctor for a round of routine vaccinations including a tetanus-diphtheria-pertussis (Tdap) booster and a vaccine against bacterial meningitis, so it makes sense to start the HPV series at the same time, he said.\n\u201cIf you give the vaccine at an earlier age it provides a higher level of antibodies,\u201d Bednarczyk said.\nAdolescents are going to be sexually active, so arming them with education and vaccines is important, he said.\nSOURCES: http://bit.ly/1A3gEDP and http://bit.ly/1zMp4w2 JAMA Internal Medicine, online February 9, 2014.",

It was a good movie \u2013 I\u2019ve seen it about 5,000 times!\u201d\nReed inspired the US with an epic last-hole win over Europe\u2019s top star, Rory McIlroy, in the final-day opening singles match to set the tone for his teammates.\nAnd after finishing third on his Hong Kong debut last year, Reed is eager to disappoint another of the European team\u2019s top players, Justin Rose, by taking the title from him.\nThe cocky Texan laughed off suggestions his high-pressure victory over McIlroy might have been a confidence boost.\n\u201cIt felt great \u2013 mentally it was challenging, but I knew I could I play against the best guys,\u201d he said.\n\u201cMy first Ryder Cup at Gleneagles I had Henrik Stenson, I was seven-under, he was six-under, I won one-up \u2013 I knew if I continued playing some solid golf it didn\u2019t matter who I was playing against, I\u2019d be hard to beat.\n\u201cI was happy to get Rory, he was playing the best of his team and so was I.\n\u201cI wanted to go out early, get one for the team and hopefully get some momentum on our side \u2013 we both played some really solid golf and it just happened I birdied the last.\u201d\nTwo other Ryder Cup stars, Spain\u2019s Rafael Cabrera-Bello and American reigning Masters champion Danny Willett are also confirmed for Hong Kong.\nReed, whose other highlight this year was victory in The Barclays tournament, said he immediately pencilled in a return to Hong Kong after his 2015 debut.\n\u201cI\u2019m looking forward to getting back to the course and Hong Kong was an awesome experience, it\u2019s such a great place. My wife and brother-in-law came last time and we had so much fun, it was a blast sightseeing and stuff.\n\u201cI\u2019m looking forward to getting back and turning that third-place into a win and playing some good golf.\n\u201cWe had such a good time last time it was always on the schedule \u2013 not only is the area nice, but the people are great, really supportive they know their golf.\n\u201cIt\u2019s a lot of fun and you need to have some of those events in the schedule \u2013 the year is long and you need those fun events.

It\u2019s fun and if you\u2019re interested, you can check it out here.\nI\u2019ll admit that I\u2019ve never seen the first season of Geek and Sundry\u2018s Critical Role, but I couldn\u2019t resist the temptation of watching it after all the online hype around season 2! And ever since that moment\u2026 I\u2019m hooked and I\u2019m always looking forward to the moment a new episode airs. It\u2019s a perfect show to \u2018watch\u2019 on a second screen while doing some illustration work. I don\u2019t have the time to pick up DnD again, so this certainly scratches that DnD-itch for me. \ud83d\ude09\nAnd we finally played Cthulhu Wars! And the game is so much lighter than I had imagined. Not in weight, of course, the game is ridiculously big\u2026 not to mention all the available expansions \u2013 but in the terms of game mechanics. I\u2019m usually not the biggest of strategic conquering games, but I really enjoyed Cthulhu Wars and would love to play it again a second time.\nWho are your favorite tabletop gamers with a live stream/let\u2019s play videos?\nComment by Valtharr published on February 26, 2018 @ 7:25 pm\nI can also recommend The Adventure Zone. It\u2019s a podcast. They relatively recently have ended their first, three-year and 69 episode long D&D campaign (which is just amazing) and are currently trying out different settings and systems to figure out what their next campaign should be.\nIvan Van Norman\nComment by Ivan Van Norman published on March 21, 2018 @ 7:38 am\nI also selfishly would suggest Sagas of Sundry if you get a chance. You can use \u2018Frontier\u2019 on the platform Alpha (projectalpha.com) to get 60 days for free.\nJust looked it up and it sounds like an excellent way to gain some madness \u2013 thanks for the tip! \ud83d\ude09",

Chronicle Graphic\nA tiny shellfish native to Eastern Europe has been found in a Southern California aqueduct and could spread throughout the state, threatening to clog the state's water-delivery systems and damage freshwater ecosystems.\nQuagga mussels and closely related zebra mussels already have established themselves in the Great Lakes. There, they clog water systems and industrial intake pipes, causing hundreds of millions of dollars in damage annually. They also have eroded native fish and mollusk populations.\nState authorities have worried for years that the destructive mussels would someday make their way over the Rocky Mountains. Then, on Jan. 6, quagga mussels were discovered in Lake Mead, which straddles the Nevada-Arizona border and connects to Southern California via the Colorado River and a system of aqueducts and canals.\nThis week, divers discovered quagga mussels on the intake of the Colorado River Aqueduct, said Bob Muir, a spokesman for the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California, which supplies water to almost 17 million people. More mussels were discovered at the Gene Pumping Plant about 2 miles west of the aqueduct's intake.\n\"I'd say they're here,\" Muir said.\nCalifornia Department of Fish and Game spokesman Steve Martarano said a single mussel also was found on Grass Island in the Colorado River about 15 miles north of Lake Havasu. State and federal officials have created a multi-agency task force to deal with the threat, he said.\nThe bivalves, which are about the size of a fingernail and have no human food value, could cause widespread damage to Northern California power plants, refineries and water systems if they spread as expected. They also could doom many native species because they are extremely prolific and consume vast quantities of plankton, the basis of the aquatic food web. Though some fish and waterfowl feed on the mussels, experts don't think natural predators will significantly limit their expansion.\nThe mollusks' intolerance for saltwater will keep them out of San Francisco Bay, but they could easily infest the Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta.\n\"Frankly, Californians should be scared to death,\" said Tina Swanson, a senior scientist with the Bay Institute, a Novato group that promotes preservation of the bay and the delta.\n\"Once they get established, they're virtually impossible to eradicate and extremely difficult and very expensive to control,\" she said.\nWith dark-banded shells less than half an inch long, the quagga mussel looks much like the zebra mussel, the noxious European bivalve that has been a problem in the eastern United States for decades because it clogs water pipes and fouls power plant and water supply intake systems.\nThe quagga mussel, native to Ukraine, may be even more troublesome than its relative because it can tolerate deeper, colder water than the zebra mussel, meaning it can invade a wider range of environments. Quaggas were first found in the Great Lakes in 1989, according to the U.S. Geological Survey, and are causing problems identical to those attributed to zebra mussels. Both species are presumed to have come into the United States in the ballast water of ships.\nWater delivery systems could be the mussel's main mode of transport in Southern California, but the shuttle of recreational boats between the Colorado River system and California waterways also is a likely avenue. Juvenile mussels can stow away in wet nooks and crannies, said Andrew Cohen, an environmental scientist with the San Francisco Estuary Institute.\n\"They love pipes,\" he said.\nIn Lake Michigan, he said, the mussels at times have completely clogged intake pipes 3 feet in diameter. They're also found in inland parts of New York, Ohio, Michigan and Pennsylvania as well as stretches of the Mississippi River.\nCohen said efforts to control mussel infestations at power plants, water systems, industrial complexes, boats and docks in the Great Lakes cost an estimated $500 million each year.\n\"We'll probably see similar costs in California if they become established,\" he said.\nThere is also an environmental cost exacted by the exotic mussels. Cohen said their ability to strip most of the available plankton from the water could starve some native species, particularly other mollusks and small fish. For example, the mussels could affect wild salmon populations because young salmon rely on plankton for food.\nAnd the situation could be particularly dire in the bay-delta region. An exotic bivalve known as the saltwater Asian clam already has colonized the bay to the point that it dominates the ecosystem, Cohen said.\n\"If quagga mussels get established in the delta, you'd have a freshwater counterpart to the clam, possibly with the analogous results,\" he said.\nThe USGS reports that large quagga and zebra mussel colonies might be contributing to a \"dead zone\" in Lake Erie. There could be so many mussels, the agency has postulated, that their wastes might be fueling algae blooms. When the algae dies and decays, it sucks oxygen out of the water to the point that nothing can survive.\nBut there may be reason for modest optimism. Cohen said studies by the Estuary Institute indicate the mussels are sensitive to water with low calcium levels.\n\"Generally, most Sierra Nevada streams seem to have insufficient calcium, so that could be a limiting factor,\" he said. \"Also, some of the (large) lakes in the northeast part of the state are probably too salty for them.\"\nHowever, most of California's other freshwater streams and lakes likely are well-suited for quaggas, he said.\nIf and when the mussels do show up, some control measures can be taken.\n\"Depending on the body of water, you may be able to draw it down to eliminate a colony, or use (certain poisons),\" he said. \"In other situations, you might be able to chlorinate or filter sufficiently.\"\nRic De Leon, a microbiologist for the Metropolitan Water District, said staffers will employ a variety of methods to control the mussel, including chlorination and the use of copper sulfate, a chemical poisonous to mollusks.\nDrying up canals and aqueducts also will be tried. De Leon said the district had planned to drain much of the 242-mile Colorado River Aqueduct in March for maintenance work.\n\"We'll use that opportunity to do a thorough inspection and eliminate any colonies we find,\" he said.\nBut in any such program, say experts, ambitions must be tempered with a sense of reality: Quagga and zebra mussels can be slowed, but it's unlikely they can be stopped.\n\"Our objective is control,\" said De Leon.\nQuagga mussels\nSpecies: Quagga mussels, Dreissena bugensis\nDescription: Like their relative the zebra mussel, quaggas are mollusks usually less than half an inch long. Color patterns vary widely with black, cream or white bands.\nNative environment: The Dnieper River drainage of Ukraine. Canals and ballast water helped the mussel spread through other parts of Europe. It was discovered in the U.S. Great Lakes in 1989 and eventually spread across the country.\nHabitat: Colonies can grow on both hard and sandy surfaces. They like to live in pipes and on screens, which can clog water-intake systems. The mussels can tolerate deep and cold water.\nFood: Each adult mussel can filter a liter or more of water each day, robbing the water of tiny plankton and algae that feed native species.\nReproduction: They are prolific breeders. Females can produce a million eggs per season.",

        "raw_content": "HomeNewsGoldilocks and the three bedrooms. Is your child\u2019s bedroom \u2018just right\u2019?\nHave you ever walked in to your child\u2019s bedroom and thought it was too hot, or too cold? Probably. If you live in a \u2018smart building\u2019 where everything is automated then the issues of temperature comfort will be less noticeable otherwise, temperature is something that we control in the home and change to suit our own comfort levels.\nDue to our northern hemisphere location, most people in the UK would likely report that in winter the main complaint from their children about temperature in the home would be \u2018it\u2019s too cold\u2019 or \u2018it\u2019s too hot\u2019 in the summer, blinds and shutters offer a solution to this problem without the need of added technology in children\u2019s bedrooms.\nOften, temperature issues in the home can be attributed to double glazed windows keeping the heat in, in all seasons and the strength of the sun in warmer months. Double glazed windows are extremely beneficial when it\u2019s minus figures outside but not so when we reach the summer and your child\u2019s bedroom becomes too hot to comfortably relax and get quality, rejuvenating sleep.\nHow can blinds help?\nIn the winter, blinds which use a fabric with a honey-comb design will help to keep the chill out, as will internal shutters. Well-fitted, child safe, blinds will stop draughts getting in and keep your children\u2019s bedrooms at a temperature which is \u201cjust right\u201d without the need to keep turning up the central heating, which can affect the quality of air and cause other discomforts.\nIn summer, blinds act as a physical block between the sun and the inside of your home, this means the heat can\u2019t get through and will stop harmful UV rays also. If you choose the right fabric (seek advice from a BBSA approved blind & shutter professional for this information) natural light will still be able to penetrate through but heat and the UV rays will be blocked.\nA great example of shutters for this purpose is many of the houses seen across the Mediterranean, the beautiful shutters adorning the windows aren\u2019t just decorative but primarily for the practical reason of keeping the houses cool in the heat.\nHow does this translate to British Summer Time temperatures?\nThe British Blind & Shutter Association have conducted research into overheating and found via a study of a London flat, which didn\u2019t have shutters, in September the inside of the room reached 47.5c. That\u2019s hotter than the average temperature in Death Valley, California of 47c. They flat next door had shutters fitted outside the windows and was 19c cooler. Aside from the extreme nature and obvious danger of this scenario, children are most comfortable at temperatures between 18c and 24c, which doesn\u2019t leave much room for error to get it \u201cjust right\u201d in your child\u2019s bedroom.\nTop tip: pull the blinds or shutters at around 4pm, in the winter this allows time for the room to warm up and in summer plenty of time for it to cool down before bedtime.",

Instead, they can go through all administrative procedures via the Internet, and they just need to wait at home for the business operation license to be sent by express delivery.\nJing\u2019an, home to the Shanghai Data Exchange, is a pioneer in the city in building a \u201csmart guide\u201d system to create a \u201cpersonalized\u201d application form for entrepreneurs.\nPeople who want to set up restaurant and beverage shop need to offer different documents, but they also all need the food operation permit. The system can tell them what exactly to prepare and they can obtain a tailor-made guide. Previously, they found it cost them time because they had to commute between different departments to ask for information.\nJing\u2019an has also been chosen as a pilot district by the city government to launch \u201cdigital business operation license.\u201d\nThe digital license is designed to break \u201cwalls between government departments\u201d by sharing data. Aman who wants to sell alcohol has to get a business operation license first before applying for an alcohol retail license. But the digital license will allow different departments to see it on the online platform and saving him visits. Also, his request to apply for an alcohol retail permit can be processed in advance.\nHowever, it hasn\u2019t been decided when to launch the digital license.",

Love the stuff? Pop art? We\u2019re all over it. We\u2019re very open-minded over here.\nBut, come on, sometimes you have to just say: this is rubbish. After all, even Mozart must have written a dud in his time.\nWorld-famous British artist David Hockney has redesigned the Sun\u2019s masthead for a one-off edition of the newspaper that went out on Friday. However, let\u2019s be honest here, he\u2019s basically just taken the normal logo and drawn a really crap \u2018sun\u2019 and then underlined the letters in black. It must have taken less time than it did to write this sentence.\nIn his words: \u201cOnce I thought about the idea, it didn\u2019t take me long.\u201d Yeah, we can believe that.\nHe continued: \u201cThe sun and the Sun. I love it.\u201d\nWho could have taken the artistic leap to think of the sun when someone gave them the words \u2018The Sun\u2019?\nTo be fair to Hockney, it does fit within his signature style, he did design it using an app on his tablet, and he is considered Britain\u2019s greatest living artist (although he has lived for the last 40 years in California), with a piece selling last year for \u00a39.4million. So he does know what he\u2019s doing. Next week the biggest-ever \u00adexhibition of his work opens at Tate Britain showing more than 250 artworks, although we suspect this is unlikely to be among them.\nSo maybe he\u2019s just trolling the Sun? Social media users seemed to think so.\n(These are actually quite good)\n[Images: Arthur Edwards/The Sun/PA]",

With the 24\u201317 win over the Packers, the Bears earned their first division title since 2010 and knocked Green Bay out of playoff contention.

        "raw_content": "Jurgen Klopp Praises Liverpool's Performance in 3-0 Win Over Bournemouth as Reds Return to PL Summit\nLiverpool manager Jurgen Klopp praised his side for their quality performance as they beat Bournemouth 3-0 on Saturday afternoon.\nThe Reds cruised to victory thanks to goals from Sadio Mane, Georginio Wijnaldum and Mohamed Salah. The win sees them return to the top of the Premier League, as they sit three points clear of Manchester City until at least Sunday.\nKlopp was delighted when speaking in his post-match press conference, and as quoted by the club\u2019s official website he said: \u201cIt was a difficult game, we all saw the situations when Bournemouth could play. In all the other moments we played a really, really good game.\n\u201cIt was outstanding, which for us is always a sign for a really good game. It was a good moment to get it back.\u201d\nIt was a vital win for Liverpool, following back to back league draws against Leicester City and West Ham. However the Reds showed great character and determination against Bournemouth, as they secured a vital three points.\nThree goals \ud83d\ude4c\nThree points \ud83d\udc4a\nGet in \ud83d\udd34\ud83d\udd34 pic.twitter.com/IMuwymXUsf\nSpeaking about the performance, Klopp added: \u201cOffensively, it was creative, it was with power and speed, offering runs even if you don\u2019t get the ball. All the goals were brilliant. It was just a really, really good game and a very deserved three points.\u201d\nOne of Liverpool\u2019s standout players was Mohamed Salah, who scored his 20th goal of the season against the Cherries. The Egyptian also broke a new record, becoming the first Reds player to score 20 goals in successive seasons since Luis Suarez in 2014.\nSpeaking about Salah\u2019s feat, Klopp said: \u201cThe record is really good, but the performance was brilliant. He was pretty much undefendable. It was an outstanding game; it was just exactly the football he is able to play and what we want him to play.\u201d\nSalah\u2019s goal on Saturday was his 17th Premier League goal of the season, which also makes him the league\u2019s top goalscorer this season. As well as that he is also Liverpool\u2019s top scorer this campaign.\nKlopp added: \u201cThe goal he scored, I don\u2019t think you\u2019ll find a lot of players who do what Bobby did in that moment. Most of them would try to shoot and get blocked, but he did that little, little pass and then Mo is obviously a pretty cool finisher.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Lynn Compton\nCOLAB Government Affairs Director Michael Brown has a lot to say about the political left \u2014 at least, what he thinks the left is. After reading comments that he provides on behalf of the organization\u2019s mostly anonymous membership, one could presume that liberals are godless, elitist snobs with no wherewithal to understand good governance.\nI read his recent column, \u201cOur awful sacred civic duty,\u201d on CalCoastNews. It was the kind of rhetoric you would see from a manic street preacher with a megaphone, warning citizens of the end times. It\u2019s not a viewpoint you would normally see from a labor organization spokesperson. He warns readers of liberals and the \u201cenviro-socialist\u201d movement, taking aim at the middle class, the \u201cdream of home ownership,\u201d the \u201ccohesive intergenerational family,\u201d and our \u201cheritage.\u201d\n\u201cIt is instead an epochal struggle for the very survival of America and civilization,\u201d he writes. That\u2019s an actual quote. Referring to the left as the \u201calt-left,\u201d Brown believes they are \u201cseek[ing] to undermine human progress of the last half of a millennium.\u201d How? By discussing global warming, which a majority of climate scientists agree is real and catastrophic; by embracing \u201cradical\u201d identity politics, a concept that\u2019s existed since the 1970s to describe political positions based on interests and perspectives of social groups with which people identify; by placing emphasis on \u201cpolitical correctness,\u201d formerly known as \u201crespect\u201d; by promising things people should have, like \u201cfree\u201d healthcare, college and retirement. Why shouldn\u2019t Americans have access to these basic, invaluable services? Brown doesn\u2019t say.\nIn his column, Brown determined that the threat to America and civilization is the unholy alliance of \u201cleftist tax exempt foundations, unaccountable permanent government bureaucrats, arrogant academics, a corrupt and ideological media, and oligarchical public employee unions.\u201d\nCOLAB, the organization Brown represents, is 501(c)(6) non-profit, which is tax-exempt. By his own definition, Brown was a \u201cpermanent\u201d government bureaucrat who was able to keep his job as Executive Director for the County of Santa Barbara after a lengthy and legal history of workplace harassment. According to Santa Barbara County, Brown\u2019s involvement in their public employee union allowed him to opt for a \u201cgolden handshake\u201d pension plan, which awarded two years of service credit after he retired. Brown\u2019s column is featured on an unabashedly ideological website that his organization is financially backing with advertising. Somehow, America and civilization remains unscathed.\nThen, he takes aim at left-leaning organizations, such as 350.org, Indivisible, SLO Sense and SLO Progressives for allegedly \u201crecruiting swarms of followers to show up and disrupt conservative officials\u2019 district town halls, office hours, and other events.\u201d The problem is that none of the organizations he mentioned specifically encourage people to \u201cdisrupt\u201d events featuring conservative officials.\nBrown should know a thing or two about disrupting events with conservative officials, given he was escorted out of a Board of Supervisors meeting in January for yelling, \u201cPoint of order!\u201d Prior to that instance, Brown has interrupted several county meetings by invoking \u201cpoint of order\u201d because supervisors disagreed with his public comment.\nBut there is one thing in common between all the organizations that Brown singled out. They all have a resoundingly strong and simple message: show up. They\u2019ve asked their members to show up and speak at important events. That\u2019s called democracy. Brown sees this clear exercise of democracy as a threat to natural order. When he learned that progressives were planning to express support for a liberal county supervisor to be chairman of the board, he placed the following on one of his weekly updates:\nOne person\u2019s \u201cintimidation\u201d is everyone else\u2019s free speech.\nYou would be hard-pressed to find any urgent bulletins from progressives, alerting members that \u201cfar right partisan hack\u201d Michael Brown will \u201cintimidate\u201d the board. Why is that? In SLO County, opposition to the current configuration of the Board of Supervisors is narrowly tailored to opposition of conservative policies, not personalities \u2014 and that should be commended. But Brown does the opposite. To Brown, it\u2019s not about liberal policies or ideas. It\u2019s about putting an end to liberals that crave the destruction of civilization. Who would embrace that school of thought?\nOn March 30, COLAB and Brown will be hosting their 8th Annual Dinner and Fundraiser with featured speakers District 1 Supervisor John Peschong, District 4 Supervisor Lynn Compton and District 5 Supervisor Debbie Arnold.\nAccording to Californians Aware, a non-profit that educates the public on public forum law, any event featuring a quorum of board members could pose significant Brown Act issues. Three of the five supervisors serving the BOS constitute a quorum. This is problematic, since two of the three supervisors have disclosed \u2014 albeit reluctantly \u2014 that they\u2019ve had ex-parte communications with Brown on a number of occasions. According to event organizers, the event will not be taped and the press is not allowed to enter. Nothing to see here.\nFor a seasoned bureaucrat that he is, Michael Brown has a peculiarly dark and incomprensive view of democracy. Now imagine this view encompassing public policy. Worried yet, actvists [sic]?\nI\u2019ve been quiet for the past two weeks, watching the contentiousness surrounding the proposed Chumash Heritage Marine Sanctuary. Many people intricately familiar with the local politics weighed in on the board\u2019s sudden push to oppose the sanctuary, despite the fact that their stated opposition does nothing to hinder the sanctuary designation process. To be precise, board opposition was more of a symbolic gesture, which is why proponents of the sanctuary thought the move was ideological at best.\nThe latest round started when the conservative majority of the SLO County Board of Supervisors voted to draft a resolution that opposed the sanctuary. That happened on Jan. 24. The public and the media reacted unfavorably to the sudden push to formalize board opposition, but that didn\u2019t deter the supervisors from moving forward with gusto. By the time the board discussed approving the resolution on Feb. 9, the public was ready. For approximately four hours, residents supporting and opposing the sanctuary spoke. Supporters outnumbered opponents 2 to 1. The fisherman came out to oppose the sanctuary with backing from the local Republican Party and the Coalition of Labor, Agriculture & Business.\nNonetheless, the board decided to move forward with their opposition, but with two interesting amendments. One of the amendments was to express support for Measure A, a 30-year-old ordinance requiring a simple-majority voter approval of county permits issued for onshore projects serving offshore oil and gas developments. The second amendment, which was introduced by Lynn Compton, was a statement supporting Congressman Salud Carbajal\u2019s (D-Santa Barbara) proposed legislation, which would ban offshore drilling in Ventura, Santa Barbara and San Luis Obispo counties. These amendments are not binding, and the supervisors know it. The Carbajal bill is unlikely to pass through the Republican-controlled Congress.\nSo why go through all the trouble just to make a meaningless statement?\nTo answer that question, we need to consider the following.\nThe New Times reported that Lynn Compton has taken campaign contributions from big oil interests, despite angrily insisting that she hasn\u2019t \u201ctaken a penny from oil in my campaign.\u201d She even challenged the public to review her campaign finances, which they did. Compton received $4,600 from contributors with ties to the oil and gas industries.\nWrote the New Times\u2019 Peter Johnson: \u201cAmong the donations are $900 from energy consultant Bruce Falkenhagen, who was fined $100,000 by Santa Barbara County in 1998 for deceiving regulatory agencies while operating an energy plant without pollution controls. She also received $150 from Robert Poole, who at the time was a public affairs consultant with Santa Maria Energy; $350 from Frank W. Smith, a consulting engineer for Pacific Coast Energy Company; $250 from JB Dewar, a Central Coast fuel distributor; and $2,500 from three propane companies.\u201d\nBut Compton has even closer ties to big oil. Her campaign manager, Amber Johnson, is a lobbyist that previously worked for the Home Builders Association. After serving as campaign manager, Johnson helped spearhead a campaign against Measure P in Santa Barbara County. Measure P was an anti-fracking initiative that was understandably opposed by the oil and gas industries. The measure was voted down in Nov. 2014. Johnson is currently behind an organization called \u201cOur Protected Coast Coalition,\u201d which is opposed to federal designation of the Chumash Heritage National Marine Sanctuary.\nDebbie Arnold also has ties to oil and gas interests. Arnold also received campaign contributions from Bruce Falkenhagen for $250 during her 2016 re-election bid; $1,000 from the co-owners of Central Coast Propane; $1,500 from Frank Platz of Delta Liquid Energy, a propane distributor; $100 from Pacific Coast Strategies, Amber Johnson\u2019s consulting firm. Arnold also paid Amber Johnson $1,000 for campaign consulting and received $100 from her. To be fair, Arnold has also received contributions from non-big oil interests opposing the sanctuary, including the Morro Bay Commercial Fisherman\u2019s Organization and the Santa Ynez Band of Mission Indians. In case anyone is wondering if Arnold would vote independently, consider the fact that Arnold paid over $15,000 in consulting costs to Meridian Pacific, John Peschong\u2019s political consulting firm. Arnold appreciates his advice.\nBefore he was elected supervisor, John Peschong received $262,313 from Phillips 66, the oil company behind the oil-by-rail plan, which is being to be appealed to the Board of Supervisors. Phillips 66 retained Peschong\u2019s services to craft a communications campaign called \u201cProtect Our Jobs.\u201d Peschong has offered to recuse himself from voting on that appeal item.\nThere\u2019s a lot to glean from Peschong\u2019s campaign contributions. Many of his contributors are from out of the area and out of the state \u2014 many of whom are public relations, public affairs and political consulting firms with confidential clientele information. For example, Peschong received $2,500 from Washington D.C.-based FP1 Strategies LLC, a Republican political consulting firm co-founded by former officials of the Bush-Cheney \u201904 campaign. Peschong also received $850 from Richard Claussen, who is a consultant for Redwood Pacific Public Affairs, a Sacramento-based firm that\u2019s behind several Republican communications campaigns and clients.\nIn a way, receiving a contribution from a political consultant firm is similar to receiving a donation from a Political Action Committee: the public doesn\u2019t know what companies are benefiting from that individual contribution. Peschong is someone who\u2019s been in the political consulting game for years, so he knows how to make his benefactors happy while staying legally afloat. But it\u2019s unmistakable that he\u2019s beholden to a lot of people and companies, including Phillips 66. After all, he is a lobbyist that ran for public office and won.\nWe can talk about the merits of having a national marine sanctuary, but it would be disingenuous to discount the special interests involved in the debate, especially when said special interests have contributed to the conservative board majority; especially when it\u2019s big oil interests.",

        "title": "Ice cream stand evolves into restaurant, career - Triangle East Chamber of Commerce, NC",
        "raw_content": "By Teri Saylor, Correspondent\nHula Girl Ice Cream and Grill came from humble beginnings.\nThe Selma restaurant, which serves burgers, hot dogs, wings and steaks, got its start as an ice cream stand that Rose Pittman and her husband, Ray, set up as a way to make extra money.\n\u201cWe both had full-time jobs, but we needed to earn some extra income,\u201d Pittman said. \u201cSo we bought a concession stand trailer that had a shaved-ice machine in it and was up-fitted so you could sell ice cream.\u201d\nIn 2007, the couple started hauling the stand to festivals on weekends, but they grew weary of the travel. The owner of TWM\u2019s Antique Mall in Selma allowed them to park the stand at the mall, where it was easy for residents, shoppers and passersby to stop by for ice cream.\nThe Pittmans, who live in Kenly, operated the stand seven days a week from March through October, hiring staff to run it during the weekdays when they were at their regular jobs. They kept it going for four years until they were too tired to do it any longer.\n\u201cWe still had our full-time jobs, and we would come home in the evenings and work in the concession stand at night and on weekends,\u201d Pittman said. \u201cWe were tired of working outside, and it had become too much.\u201d\nIn 2011, the Pittmans were on the verge of going out of business when a small space became available for lease in the foyer of a West Railroad Street building that also housed Ginny O\u2019s Gourmet Cheese Straws.\nThe space had a narrow strip of floor occupied by a large cooler stocked with buckets of ice cream, and a counter-top just large enough for a cash register. The couple added hot dogs and hamburgers as a way to increase business, and put picnic tables, which seat about 50, on the front lawn.\nBehind the counter was a small-food preparation area.\nGinny O\u2019s moved out in 2013, and the Pittmans took over the entire building. They added grills and fryers, and expanded their menu to include dishes such as steak dinners.\n\u201cWe\u2019ve been a full-fledged restaurant for two years,\u201d said Pittman, 51.\nIn 2013, Rose Pittman was enjoying cooking and Ray Pittman liked being his own boss. So she retired from her job as a guidance counselor at North Johnston Middle School, and Ray, 56, retired from his job in accounting so they could devote their time to the restaurant.\nThe Pittmans named the restaurant after a mannequin Ray Pittman acquired during his days as a Shriner. Dressed as a Hawaiian dancer, it served as decoration for the Shriners\u2019 pig cooking contests and later delighted customers at the concession stand.\n\u201cWe would tie her to a telephone pole next to the stand whenever we were open and people would stop and take pictures with her,\u201d Pittman said.\nThey named her \u201cNutmeg,\u201d and today she holds court in a corner of the Hula Girl Grill.\nTo expand their company\u2019s reach, the Pittmans in 2014 rented a building a block away and started Hula Girl Catering and Venue, with a kitchen and dining space for 100 that allows them to host events. They also cater events off premises, including unusual places \u2013 like the Amtrak trains that stop at the Selma Depot.\n\u201cThe crew will just call ahead and place an order,\u201d said Pittman, who learned the art of cooking from her grandmother and cooks everything from scratch. \u201cWhen the train pulls into the station at 1:20, I\u2019m there with their food. I have to make sure I\u2019m there on time because they can\u2019t wait.\u201d\nAt its annual meeting in January, the Smithfield-Selma Chamber of Commerce named Ray and Rose Pittman the 2014 Jimmy Creech Small Business Persons of the Year.\nEven with 15 employees and without their full-time jobs, the Pittmans are still working long hours and rarely take a day off.\n\u201cThe restaurant involves hard work and long hours, but it\u2019s worth it,\u201d Ray Pittman said. \u201cThere\u2019s nothing better than being your own boss.\u201d\nAdvice from Roy and Rose Pittman\n* Think long and hard before you start your business, especially if it is a restaurant. It is the hardest work you will ever do in your life.\n* Do your homework first.\n* Despite the hard work and long hours, it\u2019s worth it. There\u2019s nothing better than being your own boss.",

His father ran the Robinson and Hawthorn garage, which was on Doncaster Road.\nLocal historian Giles Brearley, a member of Mexborough and District Heritage Society\u2019s blue plaques committee, said a proposal to build a statue in honour of Mr Hawthorn was due to be discussed at a committee meeting of the society this week.\nHe said: \u201cThere has been talk that there may be a statue built of Mike in Mexborough.

She had previously said she was pleased he had given up motor racing the previous year.\nSince 1959 speculation over the cause of death has covered driver error, mechanical failures and blackout.\nRob Walker, a friend of Mike who had been driving a Mercedes just ahead of his Jaguar had insisted until his own death that the two of them being on the same road that day had been entirely coincidental, dismissing suggestions that the two had been racing.\nMike\u2019s cousin, Neil Hawthorne, aged 69, still lives on Queen\u2019s Terrace, in Mexborough, and remembers his famous cousin\u2019s visits to his grandmothers house, but was only a young child when he died. He is very proud of his older cousin.\nHe said: \u201cThe last time I saw him would have been 1959. I remember my parents mentioning that he had died.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Stratolaunch Abandons Launch Vehicle Program for World's Largest Airplane\nAn illustration of the \"family\" of launch vehicles Stratolaunch had planned to offer. The company is ending work on its own launch systems, leaving it with the existing Pegasus XL (left).\n(Image: \u00a9 Stratolaunch)\nWASHINGTON \u2014 Stratolaunch, the company founded by the late billionaire Paul Allen, said Jan. 18 that it is ending work on a launch vehicle that would be flown on the company's giant aircraft.\nIn a statement to SpaceNews, a company spokesman said that the company was ending work on its own family of launch vehicles and would instead use its aircraft for launching small Pegasus XL rockets from Northrop Grumman. News of the change in plans was first reported by GeekWire.\n\"Stratolaunch is ending the development of their family of launch vehicles and rocket engine,\" the spokesman said in an emailed statement. \"We are streamlining operations, focusing on the aircraft and our ability to support a demonstration launch of the Northrop Grumman Pegasus XL air-launch vehicle.\" [Stratolaunch Test Photos: The World's Largest Plane in Action]\nStratolaunch made no mention of layoffs in its statement, but sources familiar with the company said they expected up to several dozen people to lose their jobs with the termination of the company's vehicle development effort.\nStratolaunch is best known for its development of a giant aircraft that will be the largest in the world by wingspan. The twin-fuselage plane, with six jet engines, has carried out a series of taxi tests at the Mojave Air and Space Port in California, most recently one Jan. 9 where it reached a speed of nearly 220 kilometers per hour. In that test the plane's nose gear briefly left the ground in a \"rotation authority maneuver\" that suggested the plane was nearly ready for its first flight.\n\"Surpassed all expectations and met every test objective,\" Jean Floyd, president and chief executive of Stratolaunch, said of that taxi test in a Jan. 11 tweet.\nThe company's plans for a launch system that would be ferried by the plane have gone through several changes. When Allen announced Stratolaunch in late 2011, the original design called for the plane to use a modified version of SpaceX's Falcon 9 rocket as the launch system.\nThe companies parted ways within a year, though, and Orbital Sciences (later Orbital ATK and now Northrop Grumman) replaced it with a vehicle called Thunderbolt that featured solid-propellant lower stages and an upper stage powered by an Aerojet Rocketdyne RL10 engine.\nStratolaunch, though, decided a few years later to discontinue that effort, seeing greater demand in small satellites that require smaller vehicles. In October 2016, Stratolaunch announced a partnership with Orbital ATK where it would use the existing Pegasus XL rocket on the plane. One concept shown by the company involved flying three Pegasus rockets at a time.\nThe company, though, had not lost interest in larger launch vehicles. The company hired a former NASA and SpaceX engineer as its vice president of propulsion in mid-2017, and in September 2017 signed a Space Act Agreement with NASA\u2019s Stennis Space Center to use propulsion test facilities there.\nStratolaunch didn't formally announce its launch vehicle development efforts until August 2018, when it said it was developing what it called the Medium Launch Vehicle, capable of placing up to 3,400 kilograms into low Earth orbit with a 2022 first launch. The company also said it had concepts for a larger vehicle, able to place 6,000 kilograms into LEO, as well as a crewed reusable spaceplane.\nThose vehicles would be powered by an engine the company was developing called PGA, which took its name from the initials of founder Paul G. Allen. The engine, using liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen propellants, was intended to produce up to 200,000 pounds-force of thrust. In November, Stratolaunch said it successfully test-fired the preburner, the smaller of two combustion chambers in the staged combustion engine.\nHowever, the death of Allen in October from complications of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma raised questions about the future of Stratolaunch, which was effectively entirely funded by him. Allen's holding company, Vulcan Inc., said at the time that Allen drew up plans prior to his death for continuing his various ventures, but did not disclose them.\nThe announcement leaves Stratolaunch reliant on the Pegasus XL, a vehicle with a long record but little demand given its high prices. The company had argued that the ability to carry three Pegasus vehicles on a single flight would allow it to deploy a constellation of satellites into different orbital planes, since the aircraft could change its trajectory as needed. That flexibility may not be sufficient, though, given the rise of a new generation of commercially developed small launch vehicles with much lower prices.\nIn its statement, Stratolaunch reiterated that it would continue tests of its aircraft. \"We are immensely proud of what we have accomplished and look forward to first flight in 2019,\" the company spokesman said.",

        "raw_content": "Jimmy Liggins: \u201cMove Out Baby\u201d\nAs winter turned to spring in 1948 and rock \u2018n\u2019 roll itself was becoming more firmly established as a surprising commercial threat, Jimmy Liggins, one of its innovators, was riding high. Higher than he\u2019d ever been and \u2013 spoiler alert \u2013 higher than he\u2019d be again for quite some time.\nHis two groundbreaking records in this new style thus far, I Can\u2019t Stop It from November and the scintillating Cadillac Boogie from January, had established much of the musical exuberance and the celebratory outlook that rock \u2018n\u2019 roll was adopting as its primary characteristics.\nOn the basis of those two records he seemed to instinctively understand what attributes to emphasize for greatest effect. He, more than most, had figured out how to best use the horn section by stripping away the dainty mannerisms that were an unwelcome holdover from previous musical motifs. His records churned with tightly played grooves with the saxophones, not the trumpets as was still too often the case with other recordings, providing the appropriate muscle. Meanwhile the rhythm tracks that were the underpinning for everything were lean and sinewy on these songs. The drums were emphasized more than most of his competitors had done to date, with crashing fills and a steady backbeat anchoring the proceedings. The piano was used primarily to support the rhythm, its left hand, not the right, enforcing the main directive to always keep everything moving. Lastly, the lyrics and the vocals, while relatively basic in construction, never lost sight of their purpose as he saw them \u2013 to boisterously celebrate life in the present and give notice that tomorrow will be even better.\nFor ALL of this he must be given ample credit and it certainly could be argued that he embodied the rock spirit better than anyone in the first few months of its existence. The drive, optimism and rampaging spirit in Jimmy Liggins\u2019 work to date placed him at the forefront of the music as the birds flew north in the early spring of \u201948.\nBut of course it was none of THESE things that elevated him to his current position in the music world, the pinnacle of his commercial impact, and the stature he was enjoying where he was (how did I put it?) \u201criding high\u201d.\nYou Take My Love And Throw It Away\nIn one of the frustrating contradictions that makes life itself so bewildering at times, Jimmy Liggins\u2019 early success didn\u2019t come from the invigorating Cadillac Boogie, one of the most exciting and influential songs of rock\u2019s youth, but rather for the flip side of that, a weird hybrid of pure blues-styled vocals married to a sedate, mournful melody entitled \u201cTear Drop Blues\u201d, which was now sitting comfortably in the Top Ten of the Billboard race charts (but, lest anyone ask, way too far from rock \u2018n\u2019 roll to be artificially shoehorned into our history of rock here on Spontaneous Lunacy). Incomprehensibly it\u2019d wind up being his biggest hit this decade.\nFor all of his forward thinking experiments which to others at the time must\u2019ve seemed reckless and risky at best and unmusical noise at worst; for all of his commitment to be at the vanguard of this movement as it took shape; maybe even for all of the good-natured teasing older brother Joe gave little brother Jimmy for his making such a racket on wax when he finally got the chance to record for himself\u2026 THIS was his reward?!?! His rather timid concession to yesterday\u2019s music (ironically music more suited to his refined bandleader brother Joe Liggins, the far bigger star in the family) was now in the process of giving the younger Liggins his greatest success until 1953?\nWell, we KNOW how it\u2019s possible\u2026 in fact, we know why it was not just possible but even predictable. The traditional musical establishment is more firmly\u2026 well\u2026 established and doing something that has appeal to that larger audience is more apt to pay off commercially. At least for a little while longer.\nBut it\u2019s never the concessions to yesterday that define tomorrow. Music needs people like Jimmy Liggins to advance the thinking and expand everybody\u2019s outlook, just as music had needed Joe Liggins a few years earlier to advance it from a previous stage and give it a new, more modern sound for its time.\nWithout these leaps forward, as jarring as they may appear to those still enamored with the fading strains of the last big leap a few years earlier, music would never progress. This is true in all fields, from pop on down. After all, who needs new records by Frank Sinatra in the mid-1940\u2019s if Al Jolson\u2019s records from the 1920\u2019s are still deemed vital? For that matter, who needs Jimmy Liggins if Andy Kirk & His Clouds Of Joy still cut it?\nYou Take My Money And Have A Ball\nIt\u2019s either funny\u2026 or ironic\u2026 or telling\u2026 that Liggins, while enjoying his biggest success yet for a thoroughly dated track, was \u2013 with this record \u2013 in danger of having his status as the freshest, most vibrant artist on the rock \u2018n\u2019 roll block (a position established by those first two rock sides) end at the same time. Though Move Out, Baby thankfully isn\u2019t another tepid offering in the vein of \u201cTear Drop Blues\u201d, but it\u2019s also not nearly as advanced as either I Can\u2019t Stop It or Cadillac Boogie, even though it adheres to almost exactly the same framework.\nWhat that means is he was entering into the stage of being \u201cstuck\u201d in place.\nAll types of music face the same inevitable arc when mapping out their course. Sounds quickly go from being ahead of their time to defining their time to being behind the times. Usually it takes a lot longer than three consecutive releases by the same artist in a span of just five months to go from progressive to regressive, but it\u2019s not unheard of either to transpire that quickly.\nOn I Can\u2019t Stop It released back in November of \u201947 Liggins sounded startlingly fresh, like he was the first to discover a new key to unlock the rock kingdom\u2019s treasure vaults. Soon after in January with Cadillac Boogie it was clear he\u2019d looted those vaults and was riding around in style, bedecked in the flashiest jewels and showing off his new stature as being one of the leaders of the movement. That was the record that defined the potential of rock music as 1948 got underway, a gleaming light that could be seen from miles away letting everybody know this trailblazing new style was something special.\nWhat he needed to do now was get back down to work, to put some distance between himself and those clamoring in the streets behind him, racing to catch up and take over his spot at the front of the parade. Instead he was coasting, soaking it all in. But that gave everyone else \u2013 the ones who hadn\u2019t enjoyed the ride yet \u2013 the opportunity to catch up and now some were now in the process of passing him. That happens all the time in life, and nowhere more notably than in music.\nI Bought You Fine Clothes\nAn artist starting out has an abundance of ambition and drive, a restless desire to prove themselves and the indefatigable energy to devote every waking minute toward achieving their artistic goals. If those traits are combined with talent, and their instincts can connect with an audience, their ascension is all but assured. The list of names through the years who fit that profile in rock is far too long to print here, but suffice it to say, we\u2019ll meet them all in due time.\nBut when that happens, when their goals become a reality and their dreams of success come true, that\u2019s when they\u2019re at their most vulnerable to be left behind because they suddenly can afford to relax. Exhale. Stop pushing forward relentlessly and enjoy that success. Yet the more they enjoy it, the less OF it they\u2019re likely to get going forward.\nThe combination of talent, ambition and hard work are often seen in that descending order, with talent being the rarest commodity and thus the most necessary for achieving success. In a way that\u2019s true, but it\u2019s also the one thing among them you, as an artist, CAN\u2019T control. It\u2019s a gift, something you\u2019re born with, like the DNA for good looks, athleticism or brains. But it\u2019s the other two areas, the ones you can control, that allow you to take advantage of the first, and those, sadly, are often the ones you take for granted and don\u2019t always nurture.\nMove Out, Baby cut in the last days of December, sounds as if he\u2019s consciously recycling the earlier gems \u2013 no doubt pressed for material with the recording ban imminent \u2013 but the result is the ambition and inspiration are not up to the levels his previous efforts.\nIt sounds as if he\u2019s taken his foot off the accelerator.\nTake My Love And Throw It Away\nThe song\u2019s structure is working from the same blueprint, like a style of house where the only thing that changes from one to another is the location. So we\u2019re already at risk of feeling let down for not having anything new to focus on. Ahh, but as in real estate location is everything, or in this case the lot they build it on, the view it affords, the quality of the materials they use, will determine if this house sells.\nIt\u2019s the little things that knock the price on this dwelling down a few notches from its closest neighbor, I Can\u2019t Stop It. Whereas in that song the rousing horns were joined by tribal drums on the intro, giving it an energy that was overwhelming to the senses, here the horns take it alone and sound subdued in contrast. Liggins own contributions when the vocals start are similarly underplayed and now the horns are acting as a counterpoint to his voice and it just doesn\u2019t work, they clash in both tone and intent. It\u2019d work far better to let the rhythm section handle the backing with the horns delivering urgent sounding interjections before taking off for the solos.\nBut it\u2019s not just the arrangement that falls short, the song itself is also demonstrably weaker. Though the lyrics are serviceable they\u2019re not exactly memorable and because essentially they\u2019re using the same melodic structure of a song he\u2019s already connected with he\u2019s running the risk of having you recall the earlier lyrics instead and that\u2019s a battle Move Out Baby isn\u2019t going to win.\nThough there ARE differences, they\u2019re slight, but telling all the same, as something as simple as him going up the scale at the end of each line in I Can\u2019t Stop It, which has the effect of keeping the song surging forward, is replaced here with a drop at the end of each couplet (much like he did on that record\u2019s flip, Troubles Goodbye, where it also didn\u2019t work as well), dulling the momentum ever so much.\nThe most notable difference comes in the solos though, where on his debut there was a sense of barely contained chaos, horns blaring and drums pounding in a stop/start rhythm that was infectious and sounding borderline dangerous to those not used to such frantic displays. Here they\u2019re far more restrained, emphasizing melody more than beat, and while it\u2019s a fairly uptempo, even slightly energetic, melody, it\u2019s not a wild cacophonous sound and so it doesn\u2019t leave your heart pounding as you were hoping and probably expecting based on Liggins previous efforts.\nAll of this doesn\u2019t add up to a BAD record though, just underwhelming after what came before it in his catalog. It\u2019s still capably delivering enough of what you crave to hold your interest and when compared with the competition on the market as winter draws to a close in 1948 it\u2019s not being outpaced by TOO many other records. But those which are pulling ahead of him, namely the latest efforts by Wynonie Harris and Roy Brown, do so with ease.\nThen again when two of the records already on the market which far outpace this in excitement, energy and inspiration are Liggins\u2019s own two previous releases, the problem becomes more acute.\nAs a result Move Out Baby comes off less as of a \u201ccurrent\u201d offering into the rock sweepstakes and more of a warmed over pastiche of his already established winners. What it really comes down to is that this record is the sound of contentment rather than ambition.\nOf yesterday rather than tomorrow.\nPrevious Post: Tom Archia: \u201cIf I Feel Like This Tomorrow\u201d\nNext Post: Joe Swift: \u201cChicken Leg Chick\u201d\nLeave a reply on \"Jimmy Liggins: \u201cMove Out Baby\u201d\"",

        "raw_content": "PTG2017: McLaren wants obligation on athletes to report doping\nRichard McLaren, the Independent Person who complied two reports on doping in Russia for the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA), would like to see an obligation on athletes to report doping. He also said that he doesn\u2019t regret changing his definition of the doping system his reports outlined from \u2018State-sponsored\u2019 to \u2018institutionalised\u2019. This change in definition has allowed Russia to ramp up its claims that there was no State doping system, supported by the Investigative Commission of the Russian Federation (SKR).\n\u201cAthletes only come forward when they have a particular reason for doing so\u201d, said McLaren at Play The Game in Eindhoven. \u201cYou are not going to have people whistleblowing just because they have seen something. Yes, I was talking about an obligation to report, similar to that regarding match-fixing.\u201d\nSuch agreements are in place in cricket and tennis, and allow athletes to be sanctioned for not reporting a suspicious approach. Asked to clarify how such a provision might work later, McLaren said that it could be included in the Athlete Agreement, which elite athletes are required to sign when they want to participate in elite sport. This is the same agreement that denies athletes recourse to ordinary courts of law, stating that all disagreements must be arbitrated at the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS).\n\u201cIn match-fixing in professional tennis, that [reporting] is a requirement in the rules\u201d, he explained. \u201cSomething similar could be done with respect to doping issues. It\u2019s not a perfect solution, but it\u2019s better than what we have now. The quid pro quo is that sport would have to conduct an investigation and that doesn\u2019t happen, as we\u2019ve seen in many circumstances. Information flows into these organisations, disappears and is never acted on.\u201d\nRussian doping: State sponsored on institutionalised?\nMcLaren also said that he did not regret changing his definition of the doping methodology outlined in his two IP Reports from \u2018State-sponsored\u2019 to \u2018systemic\u2019. \u201cI needed certain information at the time\u201d, he explained. \u201cI met with Russian officials, I got the cooperation I was looking for. I wanted to demonstrate clearly to them that I was listening to what they had to say and making changes where I thought that I should. So I don\u2019t regret changing the discussion.\u201d\n\u201cMany people would take the definition of State sponsored just as the fact that the Minster of Sport is involved, which he clearly was. There are other conflicting definitions of State sponsored, but if you use the Russian definition, or version, then it\u2019s not State sponsored, but it is certainly institutional.\u201d\nMcLaren said that the involvement of the Russian federal police (FSB) suggested that there were a lot of \u201cmoving parts\u201d within the institutional doping system operating in Russia. \u201cWhat is a federal police service doing involved in any of this?\u201d he asked. \u201cIt is not a police function. As I was saying to somebody, who raised a criminal question, this is a contractual matter. Athletes, federations, and national governing bodies agree by contract not to do these things. It\u2019s not State sponsored in that sense. It\u2019s not a criminal problem.\u201d\nMcLaren argued that it was Vitaly Mutko, the Deputy Minister of Sport at the time, who appointed Dr. Grigory Rodchenkov as Director of the Moscow Laboratory in 2012. He also points out that Rodchenkov was also an FSB agent. This appears to be in direct conflict to Bryan Fogel\u2019s \u2018Icarus\u2019 documentary, where Dr. Rodchenkov states that his release from a mental institution to run the Moscow Laboratory was directly ordered by Russian President Vladimir Putin.\n\u201cDon\u2019t forget that throughout that period \u2013 before and after \u2013 he was a sworn FSB officer, so he was reporting to an FSB operative throughout his entire period as a lab Director\u201d, said McLaren. \u201cBlaming everything on him is just not the facts. Mutko himself appointed the man. If he had these suspicions and problems with him, then he shouldn\u2019t have done that in the first place. That was in 2012, long before these problems surfaced. In the position he\u2019s in now, I think it would be extremely dangerous for him to lie. He could well be deported if he did.\u201d\nDr. Rodchenkov studied Chemical Kinetics and Catalysis at Moscow State University before graduating in 1982, after which it is understood that he spent time studying with Don Catlin, who founded the UCLA Laboratory in the US \u2013 also in 1982. It is understood that Rodchenkov did not start work at the Moscow Laboratory until 1985, leaving in 1994 to work for Interlab before joining the Anti-Doping Centre in Calgary for the 1998 Winter Olympics. After that, he returned to Russia and took a number of roles before returning to work for the Moscow Laboratory in 2005, becoming Director a year later.\nIn 2011, he was arrested along with his sister, Marina Rodchenkova as part of a doping conspiracy involving senior Russian athletics officials. He attempted to take his own life on 23 February 2011 and was sectioned within a mental institution until 26 April, when he was released. In the \u2018Icarus\u2019 documentary, Dr. Rodchenkov tells Fogel that this release was personally ordered by Russian President, Vladimir Putin, due to an invitation to visit the London 2012 laboratory and in return for Rodchenkov\u2019s running the Sochi 2014 Winter Olympic doping programme.\nAs previously reported by The Sports Integrity Initiative, urine samples are still held in the Moscow Laboratory, where they are sealed off due to an ongoing investigation by the SKR. McLaren said that investigating judicial authorities were entitled to seize evidence, but added \u201cit\u2019s also a convenient explanation from a political point of view\u201d.\n\u201cI don\u2019t understand the strategy that they\u2019re trying to use to say it never happened\u201d, stated McLaren. \u201cThe more they come up with explanations that are as ludicrous as suggesting that this was all done to manipulate voting in the election in March next year\u2026the more you say those sort of things, the more I think you change public opinion. Of course it\u2019s a political game.\u201d\nIf Rodchenkov was appointed by Putin, as he told Bryan Fogel, then that appears to be direct evidence of State involvement in Russian systemic doping. If Mutko appointed him, then that neatly fits Russia\u2019s argument that Putin\u2019s \u2018inner circle\u2019 were not involved in the \u2018systemic\u2019 doping McLaren\u2019s evidence outlined. Dr. Rodcehenkov\u2019s extensive diaries, as chronicled in the New York Times, support the involvement of Mutko, who was promoted from Minister of Sport to Deputy Prime Minister by Vladimir Putin after news of the systemic Russian doping system broke.\n\u201cIf the FSB is involved in the swapping of doping samples, or in the cover up of doping, then it is very clear that we talk about State-supported doping cover ups\u201d, said journalist Hajo Seppelt, who has produced a number of investigations into systemic Russian doping. \u201cEven in the Legkov decision yesterday, the McLaren Report was quoted and they were talking about State supported and State funded. Everyone is now aware \u2013 and even the IOC is aware \u2013 that this was at least influenced by the Russian State.\u201d\nThe International Olympic Committee (IOC) is due to made a decision on what action to take over Russia on 5 December. At PlayTheGame, delegates dismissed the idea of imposing a fine on Russia, which they said would send the wrong signal. \u201cDoes the IOC really have the ability to impose a fine?\u201d questioned McLaren. \u201cI think that the two parties could agree on a monetary payment which they might call a fine, but they don\u2019t have any authority to impose a fine. There\u2019s nothing in the IOC\u2019s rules that will allow that to occur.\u201d\nThe arguments above appear to be splitting hairs, but the change in McLaren\u2019s definition has made it easier for the Russian authorities to claim that the systemic doping that took place in Russia was not State supported. Whether such political manoeuvring has managed to influence the IOC remains to be seen. What is worrying is that the focus once again appears to have shifted back towards punishing the athlete.\nWADA was told about the doping system operating in Russia in 2010 (Stepanovs), 2012 (Pischalnikova) and 2013 (Mail on Sunday). Athletes reporting doping have faced considerable threats as late as March this year. Is it therefore right to consider sanctioning people for not reporting doping? It could be argued that many athletes don\u2019t have a choice but to stay quiet.\nIf WADA had been collecting and analysing the Russian Anti-Doping Agency\u2019s (RUSADA) anti-doping reports as required by Article 14.4 of the World Anti-Doping Code, they might have noticed apparent manipulation of testing figures, dating back to 2008. Alarm bells also should have rung when Russia reported not a single adverse analytical finding at the London 2012 and Sochi 2014 Olympic Games.\nThe blood database obtained and analysed by Hajo Seppelt dates back to 2001 and allegedly revealed widespread doping across sport. A 2011 study published on the International Association of Athletics Federations\u2019s (IAAF) internet site, involving analysis of samples taken back in 2001, reveals (Table 2, left) that certain countries may have had an issue with doping.\nAs The Sports Integrity Initiative has previously highlighted, many of the athletes hoping to compete in the Sochi 2014 Olympics will have been untouched by the Russian doping system, as the allegations outlined by McLaren date back to 2014 and before. Yet once again, the focus has shifted back onto them. It is time to stop punishing athletes for the mistakes of sport\u2019s administrators.",

        "raw_content": "Does your advisor\u2019s personality expose you to risk? In the new book Quiet, Susan Cain suggests it may.\nIn 2008, in the wake of the credit crisis and the collapse of Lehman Brothers, the S&P/TSX Composite Index declined by over 30%. Many Canadian investors were shocked to find that the values of their portfolios had shrunk by significantly more. This shock was compounded by the fact that many investors believed that their advisors had put them in conservative investments. Their expectation was that high quality, conservative investments would be less volatile\u2014i.e. that in a downturn, they would go down less than the market.\nHow could this happen? There is a growing body of evidence suggesting that the sort of people most likely to go into the lucrative financial service sales roles are precisely those least suited to judging risk. In the recently published book Quiet, author Susan Cain cites a series of studies that suggest that extroverts tend to be attracted to the high-reward environments of investment deals and trading. More importantly, the studies conclude that these outgoing people also tend to be less effective at balancing opportunity and risk than some of their more introverted peers.\nIn their defence, investment advisors would likely explain that that their clients expect and even demand that they earn their keep by out-performing market indices. However, in order to do that, they are forced to take on more risk. If a fund out-performs in a rising market, it will likely under-perform in a declining market. Again, that is exactly what many Canadian investors experienced in 2008: while the TSX Composite Index declined by 33%, many supposedly \u2018conservative\u2019 large-cap equity funds declined by 40% or more.\nPart of the problem is using the S&P/TSX Composite Index as a benchmark to judge the performance of your investments. The TSX is not an ideal investment yardstick. It simply reflects the nature of business in Canada. And for better or worse, we are still \u2018hewers of wood and drawers of water.\u2019 Resource companies (combining the energy and materials sectors,) comprise about 50% for the market capitalization of the TSX Composite Index. That concentration in the resource sector means that the S&P/TSX Composite Index is highly volatile. For example, as commodity prices rose in 2009, the TSX moved up sharply. When they declined in 2011, the TSX dropped sharply.\n\u201cThe essence of investment management is the management of risks, not the management of returns.\u201d \u2013 Ben Graham\nSo what should investors do to reduce risk and volatility in their portfolios? Firstly, one should set reasonable expectations for investment returns. Rather than demanding that your investments outperform the market, it is more reasonable to ask that they generate a modest real rate of return, after inflation and management fees. We also believe your best protection is to find an investment manager who meets a \u2018fiduciary duty.\u2019 A fiduciary duty is a legal requirement that a manager avoids all conflicts of interest and put the client\u2019s interests first. Investment advisors employed by the big bank-owned brokerages only responsibility is to suggest investments that are \u2018suitable\u2019 for their clients\u2014a much lower threshold than a fiduciary duty. In addition, they are not required to disclose any fees or commissions that they will receive if you buy what they are recommending.\nPosted in Successful Investing | Tagged fiduciary duty, Quiet, risk and volatility, Susan Cain",

        "title": "6060 North Central Expressway, Highland Park, Dallas, TX 75206 | SquareFoot",
        "raw_content": "2nd Floor - Suite 1,933 sqft Inquire for pricing\nHighland Park is a town in Central Dallas County, located just four miles north of Downtown Dallas, between the Dallas North Tollway and the North Central Expressway. While it is close to the heart of the city, Highland Park is, in fact, an independent town, which along with the city of University Park to the north, forms the Dallas enclave known as Park Cities. The Park Cities each maintain their own school districts, police departments, tax structures, and municipal operations.\nHighland Park is the most affluent neighborhood in Dallas, and the 4th most affluent area in the state of Texas, based on per capita income. As of 2010, the population is just over 8500 people, with a median household income of $150,000, and a median home value of over $1.6 million. The population of Highland Park is also highly educated, with nearly 75% of adults over the age of 25 holding a bachelor\u2019s degree or higher.\nThe Southern Methodist University campus is located in Park Cities, lending an ivy league, college town feel to the small towns. Highland Park is known for its grand homes and oak-lined streets, and became somewhat famous in the 1980\u2019s when the TV show Dallas started shooting on location there. It is the hometown of Robin Wright\u2019s character Claire Underwood on House of Cards, as well as the real-life home of Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones.\nHighland Park gets its name from its elevated location overlooking Downtown Dallas, and also because 20 percent of the development land was originally set aside for parks.\nHighland Park Office Space | Lease and Data Trends\nAccording to Q2 2018 data, the Dallas-Fort Worth market is continuing to experience a widespread flight-to-quality trend, with many companies leaving large blocks of Class B space for newer product. Activity in the DFW market is slowing, but this is due to shifting trends in office space rentals, and is expected to promote moves to slow-to-emerge suburban markets. The shifting patterns contributing to slowed activity include slowing rent growth, and companies moving into full floors rather than large build-to-suit suburban campuses and using coworking spaces for spillover.\nAs of Q2 2018, there are just over four million square feet of office space inventory available in the Turtle Creek area, with an additional 20,000 square feet currently under construction. The overall average asking price is just under $38 per square foot, and for Class A space is nearly $40 per square foot.\nWhat Our Brokers Say About Highland Park Office Space\nTurtle Creek runs through the Highland Park area, and there are a number of creekside parks and trails to visit. Lakeside Park offers a lush landscape with walking trails, benches, a bridge, and teddy bear statues. Goar Park has a small pond, a large playground, and tennis courts, and is a local favorite for outdoor photo shoots. Prather Park is also a small and scenic favorite, right in the heart of Highland Park.\nThere are also a variety of cultural offerings in Highland Park. The George W. Bush Presidential Center and Library includes a museum that houses the archives of the George W. Bush presidency, as well as 43,000 gifts and a replica of the Oval Office. The Meadows Museum, nicknamed the \u201cPrado on the Prairie,\u201d is an art museum on the SMU campus that showcases art by Spanish masters from the 15th to 20th centuries. Just across the North Central Expressway is the Angelika Film Center and Cafe, a theater featuring independent and art films, with a menu of upscale sandwiches, pastries, beer, and wine. Highland Park Village, built in 1931 as the first shopping center of its kind in the United States and declared a historic landmark in 2000, offers high-end shopping for men and women, including a number of designer stores with no other Texas locations.\nHighland Park offers a mix of upscale dining and long-standing, humble eateries to suit any taste. For the best seafood around, our brokers recommend TJ\u2019s Seafood Market and Grill or Montlake Cut, both of which are known for their consistently fresh and delicious offerings. For a more down-home feel, there\u2019s Bubba\u2019s Cooks Country, a fried chicken mainstay since the 1980\u2019s, and Burger House, known for the addictive fries it\u2019s been serving up since 1951. For upscale dining, our brokers recommend Bistro 31 in Highland Park Village, and Javier\u2019s Gourmet Mexicano, serving authentic Mexico City fare and what some call the strongest margaritas in the city. Finally, Henry\u2019s Majestic boasts a dog-friendly patio, brunch with a DIY mimosa bar, and an eight-hour happy hour Tuesday through Friday. Plus, hidden behind its kitchen is Atwater Alley, a speakeasy with a rotating menu of classic New Orleans-style cocktails.\nHighland Park Neighborhood History\nThe land that now comprises Highland Park was bought in 1889 by a group of investors from Philadelphia known as the Philadelphia Place Land Association. Henry Exall began developing the land along Turtle Creek with the intention of naming it Philadelphia Place. He dammed the creek, creating Exall Lake, and built gravel roads, until the Panic of 1893 spooked investors and put a halt to the development.\nIn 1906, John S. Armstrong, the former partner of Thomas Marsalis, the developer of Oak Cliff, invested in the Philadelphia Place land and began developing Highland Park. In 1910, a second development was completed, and in 1913, the people of Highland Park petitioned for annexation by Dallas but were refused. In 1915, they incorporated as their own town with a population of 1,100. Highland Park\u2019s third and fourth land developments were completed in 1915 and 1917, and in 1919 the city of Dallas sought to annex the town, a proposal that the people of Highland Park fought until it was finally put aside in 1945.\nGetting Around Highland Park, TX\nThe close proximity of Highland Park to downtown Dallas allows for easy access to the Dallas Area Rapid Transit system, or DART. The town is serviced by the Route 36 bus, and residents can easily access the light rail in neighboring areas\u2013the Green and Orange Lines are just west of Highland Park at Burbank and Love Field Stations, and the Red and Orange Lines can be accessed at Lovers Lane and Mockingbird Stations. The Blue Line can also be accessed at Mockingbird Station. However, because Dallas is a sprawling city, residents will still be best-served by having a car for any serious commutes.",

        "raw_content": "Compliance With the Convention on the Prohibition of the Development, Production, Stockpiling and Use of Chemical Weapons and on Their Destruction Condition 10(C) Report\nThis Report is submitted consistent with Condition (10)(C) of the Resolution of Advice and Consent to Ratification of the Convention on the Prohibition of the Development, Production, Stockpiling and Use of Chemical Weapons and on their Destruction (CWC). The Convention was ratified by the United States on April 25, 1997, and entered into force on April 29, 1997.\nCondition (10)(C) provides that the President shall submit on January 1 annually to the Committee on Foreign Relations of the Senate and the Committee on International Relations of the House of Representatives a full and complete classified and unclassified report setting forth \u2013\n(i) a certification of those countries included in the Intelligence Community\u2019s (IC) Monitoring Strategy, as set forth by the Director of Central Intelligence\u2019s Arms Control Staff and the National Intelligence Council (or any successor document setting forth intelligence priorities in the field of the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction (WMD)) that are determined to be in compliance with the Convention, on a country-by-country basis;\n(ii) for those countries not certified pursuant to clause (i), an identification and assessment of all compliance issues arising with regard to adherence of the country to its obligations under the Convention;\n(iii) the steps the United States has taken, either unilaterally or in conjunction with another State Party:\n(I) to initiate challenge inspections of the noncompliant party with the objective of demonstrating to the international community the act of noncompliance;\n(II) to call attention publicly to the activity in question; and\n(III) to seek on an urgent basis a meeting at the highest diplomatic level with the noncompliant party with the objective of bringing the noncompliant party into compliance;\n(iv) a determination of the military significance and broader security risks arising from any compliance issue identified pursuant to clause (ii); and\n(v) a detailed assessment of the responses of the noncompliant party in question to action undertaken by the United States described in clause (iii).\nIt is the view of the United States that, in most cases, efforts to resolve compliance concerns discovered through review of declarations or inspection results should first be attempted through diplomatic means. This does not preclude or prevent the escalatory step of requesting challenge inspections, but diplomatic outreach is an initial mechanism to attempt to resolve compliance concerns before the need to resort to challenge inspection requests.\nFor its part, both as a matter of national policy and as a guide to national policy, the United States undertakes its own independent review \u2013 based upon the best available information, including intelligence information \u2013 of the compliance of CWC States Party with their obligations under the Convention. The United States believes that CWC States Party should be held to their obligations under the CWC, and places a high premium upon their compliance with specific declaration and implementation provisions (e.g., Articles III, IV, V, VI, and VII) and the \u201cgeneral obligations\u201d provision under Article I.\nInformation and assessments in this Report are current as of December 31, 2017. This Report highlights new developments since the most recent Condition (10)(C) Report, and refrains from repeating much older information found in previously submitted reports.\nThe Technical Secretariat (TS) of the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) reported, as of July 31, 2017, the following regarding Article VII implementation:\nSomalia and Timor-Leste, which became States Party in 2013 and 2003, respectively, have not yet designated a National Authority.\nSeventy-one States Party had not yet notified the TS of the adoption of implementing legislation and/or regulations that cover all the initial measures (scheduled chemical transfers, prohibitions, penalties, extraterritorial obligations, legal basis of regulations, establishment of national authority, other initial measures). They were: Afghanistan, Angola, Antigua and Barbuda, Armenia, The Bahamas, Bahrain, Barbados, Benin, Bhutan, Bolivia, Brunei, Darussalam, Burma, Chad, Chile, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Djibouti, Dominica, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Equatorial Guinea, Eritrea, Gabon, Georgia, Ghana, Guatemala, Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Guyana, Haiti, Honduras, Iceland, Jamaica, Kenya, Kuwait, Lao People\u2019s Democratic Republic, Lebanon, Libya, Madagascar, Malawi, Mali, Marshall Islands, Mongolia, Mozambique, Namibia, Nauru, Nepal, Nicaragua, Nigeria, Papua New Guinea, Philippines, Rwanda, Samoa, San Marino, Sao Tome and Principe, Seychelles, Sierra Leone, Solomon Islands, Somalia, Suriname, Swaziland, Syria, Timor-Leste, Togo, Tonga, Trinidad and Tobago, Tuvalu, United Republic of Tanzania, Vanuatu, Venezuela, and Zimbabwe.\nOne State Party, Tonga, had not yet submitted its required initial declarations (due July 28, 2003) pursuant to the Convention. The TS is unable to fulfill its verification tasks with regard to this State Party.\nAs of December 31, 2017, there were 192 CWC States Party. Four other States have neither ratified nor acceded to the CWC and, therefore, are not States Party to the Convention (one signatory State, Israel, and three non-signatory States, Egypt, North Korea, and South Sudan).\nStates Parties that have not been certified in compliance with the CWC as of December 31, 2017, include Iran, Russia, and Syria. Due to the March 4, 2018 use of a military-grade nerve agent in an attack on two individuals in the United Kingdom and ongoing Syrian use of chemical weapons, the United States certifies that the Russian Federation and the Syrian Arab Republic are in non-compliance with their obligations under the CWC. Additional information is available in the 2018 classified version of the Condition (10)(C) Report and its annex.\nBased on available information, the United States cannot certify Iran has met its obligations under the Convention for declaration of its: (1) chemical weapons production facility (CWPF); (2) transfer of chemical weapons (CW); and (3) retention of an undeclared CW stockpile.\nThe Convention entered into force for Iran on December 3, 1997. Iran made its initial declaration in three separate submissions (June 1998, January 1999, and March 1999).\nThe United States does not have sufficient information to ascertain whether some Iranian facilities are involved in or intentionally retain the capability to produce CW agents. There are reports that Iran transferred CW munitions to Libya in the late 1980s. The United States also has insufficient information about possible CW activity prior to entry into force (EIF) of the Convention for Iran. There also is insufficient information concerning activities relevant to its riot control agent (RCA) declaration, and activities involving highly-potent pharmaceutical compounds.\nIn accordance with Article I, each State Party \u201cundertakes to never under any circumstances 1. develop, produce, otherwise acquire stockpile or retain chemical weapons, or transfer, directly or indirectly, chemical weapons to anyone\u201d and 2. \u201cto destroy chemical weapons it owns or possesses\u2026;\u201d and under Article III each State Party is required to declare all chemical weapons activities including possession of RCAs.\nDue to a combination of irregularities in the Iranian declaration and insufficient clarification from Iran, the United States cannot certify that Iran:\nHas met its CWPF declaration obligations, given the existence of possible CW-capable infrastructure, including the possibility of a clandestine production-on-demand capability dispersed among industrial chemical plants and at military-owned facilities;\nDoes not maintain a suspected undeclared CW stockpile;\nHas fully declared those chemicals it holds for riot-control purposes; and\nHas declared all CW transfers, in particular, any from Iran to Libya.\nIran\u2019s Compliance with Articles VII and X Obligations\nThe OPCW TS reported that Iran has fully implemented legislation under Article VII of the CWC that includes penal provisions and measures to control transfers of scheduled chemicals. As part of its obligations under paragraph 4 of Article X of the CWC, Iran has acknowledged that it has a national protection program and has submitted declarations annually. Iran has also committed to support, by bilateral agreements, as well as through unilateral offers, assistance measures under paragraph 7 of Article X.\nOn the margins of OPCW Executive Council (EC) meetings in 2001 and 2004, the United States engaged the Iranian delegation about Iran\u2019s CWC compliance. The outcome of the discussions did not resolve any of the issues. Since 2004 and through the end of the reporting period, there have been no CWC compliance discussions between the United States and Iran.\nBased on available information, the United States cannot certify that Russia has met its obligations under the Chemical Weapons Convention for declaration of its: (1) CWPFs; (2) CW development facilities; and (3) CW stockpiles. In fact, due to Russia\u2019s March 4, 2018, use of a military-grade nerve agent to attack two individuals in the United Kingdom, the United States certifies that the Russian Federation is in non-compliance with its obligations under the CWC.[1]\nThe Convention entered into force for Russia on December 5, 1997, and Russia made its initial declaration in March 1998, in accordance with the CWC. The Russian declaration included CWPFs, chemical weapons storage facilities (CWSFs), a chemical weapons development facility, and a stockpile of almost 40,000 metric tons of CW agent, in both bulk and weaponized form. Details of Russian progress towards destruction of its declared Category 1 CW stockpile are available in previous versions of this Report. As of September 27, 2017, Russia had completed destruction of its declared Category 1 CW stockpile. Its Article VI declaration included Schedule 2, Schedule 3, and other chemical production facility (OCPF) plant sites. The United States agrees with the assessment of the United Kingdom that the Russian Federation is responsible for the March 4, 2018, attack on two individuals in the United Kingdom using a military-grade nerve agent \u2013 either through deliberate use or through its failure to declare and secure its stocks of this nerve agent. The United States continues to believe the Russian CW declaration is not complete:\nThe United States believes that Russia\u2019s CWC declaration is incomplete with respect to its chemical agent and weapons stockpiles.\nThe United States notes that there are additional facilities that Russia may have been required to declare as CWPFs. In 2006, the United States sought clarification of reports about production-on-demand capabilities at declared and non-declared facilities. These requests for information remain unanswered.\nThe United States does not share Russia\u2019s narrow interpretation of the CWC that the criterion in Article III is \u201cprimarily for\u201d the development of CW and instead believes that all CW development facilities, including CW testing facilities, need to be declared.\nCWC obligations include: Article 1, paragraph 1.(a), each State Party undertakes never under any circumstances \u201cto develop, produce, otherwise acquire, stockpile or retain chemical weapons, or transfer, directly or indirectly, chemical weapons to anyone\u201d; and Article I, paragraph 2., each \u201cState Party undertakes to destroy chemical weapons it owns or possesses.\u201d\nBased on existing information, the United States does not believe Russia has declared all of its CW stockpile, all CWPFs, and all of its CW development facilities.\nRussian Compliance with Articles VII and X Obligations\nThe OPCW TS has reported that Russia has fully implemented legislation under Article VII of the CWC that includes measures to control transfers of scheduled chemicals and penal provisions. Russia also has acknowledged and declared that it has a national program for protection under paragraph 4 of Article X of the CWC. Russia made its first declaration under this article in 2005 and has continued to do so annually.\nThe United States engaged in numerous exchanges with Russia regarding a number of compliance issues in 2002, 2003, and 2006, during which the United States discussed its concerns with the accuracy of Russia\u2019s CWC declaration.\nIn 2006, the United States reiterated its longstanding proposal to hold expert-level consultations, but no consultations have been held with Russia on this issue since 2006. In 2017, the United States consulted with select like-minded CWC States Parties on our shared concerns regarding Russia\u2019s compliance with the CWC.\nThe United States certifies that the Syrian Arab Republic is in non-compliance with its obligations under the CWC. The United States assesses that Syria has used chemical weapons systematically and repeatedly against the Syrian people every year since acceding to the Convention, and therefore is in violation of its obligations under Article I of the CWC. The United States also assesses that Syria was responsible for the use of sarin at Khan Shaykhun in April, which resulted in more than 70 killed and hundreds of injured. We have continued to identify other credible allegations of Syrian chemical weapons use during 2017. In addition, the United States assesses that Syria did not declare all the elements of its CW program, as required by Article III of the CWC, and that Syria retains chemical weapons as defined by the CWC. The process for verifying the accuracy and completeness of the Syrian declaration and the resolution of these matters are ongoing.\nIn 2013, following the threat of military force in response to the use of sarin in multiple, small\u2011scale attacks in opposition areas and in a large-scale attack using surface-to-surface rockets in the Damascus suburb of Ghouta in August, Syria deposited its instruments of accession to the CWC on September 14, 2013. That same day, Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov and U.S. Secretary of State Kerry negotiated the Framework for Elimination of the Syrian CW Program. This Framework led to the September 27 OPCW Executive Council decision and to UNSCR 2118, which, taken together, established milestones for the full disclosure and elimination of Syria\u2019s CW program and stringent verification, including unfettered access for the OPCW to Syrian sites and individuals. With the use of sarin in Khan Shaykhun, it is apparent that Syria continues to flaunt international norms against the use of CW and its obligations under the CWC. Detailed background information on CW use in previous years may be found in the 2014 \u2013 2017 Reports.\nContinued Concerns about Syria\u2019s CWC Declaration\nAfter a preliminary disclosure of its CW program, Syria submitted to the OPCW its treaty\u2011mandated initial declaration in October 2013, followed by numerous subsequent amendments. The sum of Syria\u2019s disclosures, declarations, and amendments provided an incomplete declaration of Syria\u2019s CW program. Gaps, discrepancies, and omissions in the declaration raised serious concerns about whether Syria had declared its entire CW program. In April 2014, the OPCW Director-General established a Declaration Assessment Team (DAT) to attempt to clarify these concerns. The DAT will continue its work into 2018.\nIn 2017, the TS deployed to Syria on two missions to two Scientific Studies and Research Centre (SSRC) sites, in accordance with Executive Council decision EC-83/DEC.5. The TS conducted inspections of SSRC Barzah and SSRC Jamrayah in February/March and November, which included sampling and analysis. Similar to challenges faced in previous years, the TS\u2019s work in 2017 was hampered by lack of access to original documentation on Syria\u2019s CW program, as well as lack of access to and engagement with senior Syrian leadership within the CW program. Syria continued to claim that no historical documents existed. In 2017, TS efforts led to Syria\u2019s further partial declaration of the SSRC facilities at Barzah and Jamrayah in relation to CW protection. The concessions obtained from Syria by way of declaration amendments in 2017 appear to be Syria\u2019s attempt to address DAT issues with minimal disclosure and by offering the most innocuous explanation possible.\nThe OPCW Director-General met with Syrian government representatives to seek to resolve declaration issues in 2016 and 2017. Following the consultations, which most recently were held from September 16\u201318, 2017, the Director-General reported that this latest of three direct engagements did not succeed in resolving any of the identified outstanding issues. Thus the numerous, serious concerns over the Syrian declaration will likely remain open for the foreseeable future.\nContinued Use of Chemical Weapons\nDuring the reporting period, sarin and the toxic industrial chemical chlorine were used as methods of warfare in Syria, by the Syrian regime.\nIn reports of the OPCW-UN Joint Investigative Mechanism (JIM), issued in August and October 2016, the JIM found \u201csufficient evidence\u201d to attribute three cases from 2014 and 2015 of CW use involving a toxic chemical, likely chlorine, to elements of the Syrian Arab Armed Forces. The JIM also found \u201csufficient evidence\u201d to attribute responsibility for a 2015 attack using sulfur mustard in Marea to ISIL. This led to the November 2016 Executive Council decision condemning CW use in Syria and specifying that the TS should inspect as feasible all CW sites reported by the JIM in its third and fourth reports and conduct additional inspections twice a year at the SSRC facilities in Barzah and Jamrayah. In a report issued in October 2017, the JIM concluded with confidence that the Syrian Arab Republic was responsible for the April 4, 2017, sarin attack in Khan Shaykhun, and that ISIS was responsible for the September 15-16, 2016, sulfur mustard attack in Umm Housh.\nThe JIM\u2019s mandate expired on November 16, 2017. Efforts to extend the JIM\u2019s mandate were unsuccessful because Russia vetoed three UN Security Council resolutions calling for the extension.\nThe fact finding mission (FFM) reported that sarin was more than likely used in an attack on al Lataminah on March 30, 2017. The FFM continues to investigate allegations of chemical use in Syria, with a reported backlog of 60 potential instances.\nDelayed Destruction of Syria\u2019s Chemical Weapons Program\nSyria had not completed the destruction of all of its 27 declared CW production facilities (CWPFs) by the destruction timelines submitted in March 2014. Syria\u2019s destruction of the last airport hangar CWPF was verified by the TS on June 6, 2017. Of the 27 total, two facilities remain to be destroyed as of December 31, 2017. Initial inspections occurred during November 2017.\nIn accordance with CWC Article I, paragraph 1(b) each State party is obligated never to use CW. The United States assesses that the Syrian regime used chlorine and sarin as a method of warfare from 2013 through 2017, in violation of Article I of the CWC. Further, Syria continues to violate UNSCR 2118 operative paragraph 4, which provides that \u201cthe Syrian Arab Republic shall not use, develop, produce, otherwise acquire, stockpile or retain chemical weapons.\u201d In spite of compelling evidence, to include a finding of attribution by an independent international mechanism, Syria continues to deny it used CW.\nIn accordance with CWC Article III, paragraph 1 each State Party is obligated to declare its CW program. The Syrian declaration contained obvious gaps, discrepancies, and omissions, in violation of Article III of the CWC and the additional declaration requirements outlined in operative paragraph 6 of UNSCR 2118. Although the DAT effort compelled Syria to declare several additional sites and additional activities since it started its work in 2014, significant gaps, discrepancies, and omissions in the declaration remain. These, coupled with the assessed use of CW, indicate that the Syrian regime has retained a residual CW capability and has not disclosed the full history and scope of its CW-related activities.\nThe United States took every available opportunity, among them its statements before Executive Council sessions and meetings, and its statement at the 22nd Session of the OPCW Conference of the States Parties, to underscore demands for Syria to (1) cease employing CW as a method of warfare and cooperate with the FFM and the JIM, (2) change its approach, as recommended by the Director-General, and cooperate fully with the DAT to resolve the gaps, discrepancies, and omissions in its declaration, and (3) facilitate the completion of CWPF destruction. As noted above, Syria continues to deny all accusations and attributions of CW use.\nThe United States played an instrumental role in the adoption of the March 23, 2016, Executive Council decision expressing concern about the TS\u2019s inability to verify fully the accuracy and completeness of the Syrian declaration, and was the initial drafter of this decision. The decision requested the Director-General to engage directly in the verification process with the intention of addressing the unresolved issues and underscoring the importance of full verification of the declaration. Throughout 2017, the United States remained vocal in its support of on-going FFM, JIM, and DAT activities.\nThe United States played a key role in securing the adoption of the November 2016 Executive Council decision that condemned the use of CW by Syria and ISIS, as reported by the JIM. This Executive Council decision again expressed concern regarding identified gaps, inconsistencies, and discrepancies in Syria\u2019s initial declaration to the OPCW and demanded that the Syrian regime fully comply with its obligations under the Convention. The decision imposed additional OPCW verification measures on Syria as set forth above. During this reporting period, the United States co-sponsored an Executive Council decision with Colombia, Estonia, and Saudi Arabia in response to the October 2017 JIM report attributing responsibility for the use of CW in Khan Shaykhun to the Assad regime and in Umm Housh to ISIS. Unfortunately, the United States was unable to secure enough Executive Council support to bring the decision to a vote during the reporting period. The United States will continue to seek accountability at the OPCW in 2018.\nThe United States made several attempts at the UN Security Council to renew the mandate of the JIM. These efforts were unsuccessful due to repeated Russian vetoes. Consequently, the JIM ceased to exist on November 17, 2017.\n[1] Though this attack occurred after the end of the reporting period (i.e., December 31, 2017), in light of the extraordinary nature of the attack, it warrants inclusion in this report.",

The company is founded on quality and the ability to vertically integrate, market and distribute their products to markets across Europe. This case study looks at the fluctuating demands of these markets and what Barilla can do to improve their ability to forecast and meet these demands. They introduced and attempted to implement Just-In-Time-Distribution (JITD), however this was met with resistance from internal and external partners. Further investigation shows that the company did not set the stage for this type of change in the organization and across the supply chain with existing stable systems. In order to adjust to meet the challenge and to ensure competitiveness in the industry, Barilla needs to choose to stick to the JITD, evaluate the supply chain management system to see if JITD will help them achieve their objectives or develop a new strategy. Evaluating their supply chain management system will help the company to determine their next steps. CONTENTS\nISSUE:Impact of the Current Order Pattern3\nANALYSIS: Underlying Issues3\nISSUE: The Impact the Current Order Pattern\nBarilla SpA is needs to find a way to reduce the bull-whip effect of the current order pattern. Fluctuating demand wreaks havoc with the logistics and manufacturing operations of the plants, increases cost and leads to stock-outs and inventory overages. Limited space on shelves means that the corporation needs to examine their ability to meet customer needs while balancing operation details. Efforts to implement a Just-in-Time-Delivery (JITD) system have not been successful due to internal and external environment resistance; however the issue remains. Something needs to be done to improve forecasting and ensure a healthy bottom line. ANALYSIS:\nBarilla SpA is a vertically integrated pasta manufacturer based in Italy supplying European countries with dry and fresh products. The company started in 1875 began as a small shop in Parma and has grown to be the largest pasta manufacturer in the world. The success of the corporation is largely due to its positioning its products with a strong brand name and reputation for quality pasta. They operate technologically advanced plants, making a wide range of products.\nWith technologically advanced plants and production sequences to allow for processes ensuring quality product, Barilla produces 900,000 kilos of pasta daily. All but the fresh products are then distributed to central distribution centers (CDCs), and then to distributors, who in turn ship to grocery stores. The fresh products are shipped to warehouses through independent agents. Approximately 35% of Barilla\u2019s dry goods are shipped to independently owned small shops which held up to two weeks of inventory. The Supermarkets make up 70% of the distribution, holding inventory for up to 12 days. A distributor\u2019s warehouse often holds up to two weeks of inventory. Orders are made on a daily basis by supermarkets; however the distributors would place orders weekly. Delivery on the weekly orders would be made within 10 days. There are no forecasting systems in place for these orders. Barilla promoted their products through a push-strategy to appease buyers who expect volume discounts and trade promotions to meet internal sales targets that included incentives such as free shipping to encourage distributor purchases. Sales staff worked at the store level on promotions, troubleshooting deliveries and assisting with orders.\nThe idea around Just in Time Delivery (JITD) implemented by Brando Vitali, the Director of Logistics, was to anticipate distributor demand through reports and data, then ship accordingly reducing unpredictable variations in orders and reducing stock-outs. The benefit to this...\nReferences: Hammond, Janice H., Barilla SpA (A), 9-694-046, Harvard Business School Publishing, Boston, 2006\nBarilla Spa Case Report Essay\n...lines of communication both internally and externally will contribute to the ultimate success of JITD implementation. We will have to address issues as they come up to ensure the peace of mind of those who will be affected the most. We need to be more flexible to address problems and bottle necks of our distributors as that would be crucial to success of JITD. The main idea we need to communicate across our Supply Chain is that JITD would allow us to eliminate waste and get rid of extra layers which our in the way of addressing our issue of volatile demand patters which result in stockouts. Giorgio Maggali, MBA, SCMP Director of Materials Management Barilla Fresh Products Group October 16, 2012 Barilla Spa Case Study Issue Identification As the decision maker in this case I believe that the main issue presented in this case study is resistance to change. To be more specific, DO\u2019s (Organized Distributors) resistance to adopt a new Just-in-Time distribution (JITD) system which would replace the old-fashioned distribution system used by Barilla\u2019s Supply Chain traditionally. This traditional distribution system has always been viewed as a successful one, as it worked for everyone within the channels of distribution supplying dry products to supermarket chains and independent supermarkets.

In order to improve company\u2019s sale margins, Giorgio Magialli, the Director of Logistics at Barilla suggests to implement a Just-In-Time Distribution (JITD) system. The JITD system is a continuous replenishment distribution strategy, which the responsibility for determining inventory quantities shifts from the distributors to Barilla based upon its demand forecasts. This system is entirely different from the existing distribution system and is rejected by Barilla\u2019s internal sales and marketing department and the external distributors. In this case analysis, the main issues: whether JITD system is feasible for Barilla and how it can be implemented effectively is discussed. Some other issues such as difficult to obtain sales data from distributors, inefficient forecasting techniques, highly complex manufacturing processes, large selections of SKUs, and long lead time to full fill the orders that have made the...\nBarilla Spa(a) Case Study Essay\n...Session 5: Supply Chain Inventory Management Barilla Spa (A) Case Study Table of Contents Executive Summary\t3 Issues Identification\t4 Environmental and Root Cause Analysis\t4 Fluctuating Demand:\t4 Resistance to Changes:\t5 Alternative and/or Options\t5 Alternative #1 \u2013 Continue to promote the Just-in-time Distribution (JITD) initiative\t5 Alternative #2 \u2013 Eliminate product focus sales strategies\t5 Recommendations and Implementation\t6 Monitor and Control\t6 Executive Summary Sales representatives at the Barilla SpA, world\u2019s largest pasta producer, are seeing customers changing due to long re-order lead-time and frequent stock-outs. Even with a high inventory levels, Barilla is still not able to cope with the fluctuating demand. The fluctuation in demand is seen as the bullwhip effect that is caused by sales strategies that have been put into place that is very product focused. This causes excessive demand from week to week depending on the product that the promotion or incentive is been aimed towards. There is also a lack of data sharing and poor communication throughout the whole supply chain which does not bring visibility for production forecast. With the Just-in-Time Distribution (JITD) that was brought in from the logistics manager, neither internally nor externally is supporting the new system. With the lack of understanding of the new system and the...\nEssay about Case Barilla Spa (a)\n...Case Barilla SpA (A) Discussion Question 1. Answer these questions about the Barilla case study; a. Diagnose the underlying causes of the difficulties that the JITD program was created to solve. What are the benefits of this program? The main underlying cause of the difficulties that the JITD program was created to solve is the effect of fluctuating demand which can be divided the root causes as per below. * Transportation Discounts * Volume Discounts * Promotional Activities * No minimum or maximum order quantities * Product Proliferation * Long order lead times * Lack of forecasting systems or sophisticated analytical tools at Distributer\u2019s end The JITD program is beneficial both of Manufacturer and Distributors. The expected benefits of JITD for manufacturers are; * Reduced manufacturing cost * Better Relationship with Distributors * Increase supply chain visibility * Increase distributor\u2019s dependence on Barilla * Improvement in manufacturing planning * Reduced inventory levels The expected benefits of JITD for manufacturers are; * Improve Fill Rates to Retail stores * Additional service without any extra cost * Reduces Inventory Holding costs b. What conflicts or barriers internal to Barilla does the JITD program create? What causes these conflicts? As Giorgio Maggiali, how would you deal...\nBarilla Spa (a) Case Study Essay\n...High inventory levels in Barilla\u2019s Central Distribution Centers (CDCs) and in its distributors\u2019 distribution centers represent increasing financial burdens on both Barilla and its distribution partners. The tight heat and humidity specifications in the pasta dry process makes it difficult for Barilla to quickly respond to the huge fluctuation and uncertainty of demand form distributors. As a result, Barilla\u2019s customer order fill rate is suffering and so does its manufacturing and distribution operation cost. Despite the excess stocks held in the distributors\u2019 warehouses, stockout happens all the time and the order fill rate of the distributors are suffering as well. Further down the chain, end-consumers\u2019 needs will not be fully satisfied if the dysfunction of Barilla\u2019s dry pasta supply chain continues. Barilla\u2019s customers are divided into three primary segments: small retail shops, large independent supermarkets, and large supermarket chains. Distribution to small retail shops is done by Barilla-Run Depots. Distribution to supermarkets goes through intermediate distribution centers, either owned by the chain, or operated by a third party representing multiple independent supermarkets. The retailers send their orders to their distributor on a daily basis. The distributor, however, place their orders to Barilla once a week. Even though all of the distributors have computer-supported ordering system, few of them...\n...\ufeff Barilla SpA - Case Study Table of Contents I. Executive summary II. Issue Identification III.

Barilla has been facing huge variability in demand which is straining the manufacturing and distribution network of the company. This fluctuation in demand, are forcing the CDCs to maintain a higher level of inventory. The proposed new system, Just-In-Time Distribution (JITD), is the solution suggested to resolve the demand fluctuation issues and lower costs. This new process would move forecasting and shipment allocation responsibilities to Barilla rather than allowing each distributor/retailer place the order amounts separately. This approach has both internal and external complications as there is much resistance from both within the company and from the suppliers and distributors.

Dystopian literature has underlying cautionary tones. Dystopian settings are often distinguished by authoritarian or totalitarian forms of government, and feature different kinds of repressive social control systems. A lack or absence of individual freedoms and expressions are common within the genre, as is warfare and violence. BioShock is a first-person shooter video game developed by Irrational Games (at the time, named 2K Boston), and published by 2K Games. Bioshock fits the description of what one would typically expect from a dystopic body of work. In dystopian visions articulated at the beginning of the twenty-first century, one can observe a tendency to approach biotechnology as implicating the threat of post-humanity, and Bioshock uses the video game medium to explore these dystopic implications. One of the most prolific lines within the game is \u201cA Man Chooses, A Slave Obeys.\u201d This line is said by Andrew Ryan, the game\u2019s antagonist. He was a business magnate from the 1940s and 1950s who sought to avoid scrutiny from governments and other oversight by constructing an underwater city. In doing so he would escape from moral boundaries and fundamental rights, and so the city of Rapture was born. However, when Ryan\u2019s vision for a utopia in Rapture collapsed into dystopia, he hid himself away and used armies of mutilated drug-addicted humans to defend himself and fight those who chose to resist him. Similarly, a band by the name of \u2018Godspeed you! Black Emperor\u2019 aimed to emulate a dystopic environment through their music. Godspeed You! Black Emperor is a Canadian post-rock band. Their track \u201cThe Dead Flag Blues\u201d aims to encapsulate and provoke an emotional response from the listener. The song begins with an ominous introduction. Back by a chilling string melody, the speaker describes a derelict city in where a corrupt...\nDystopic Essay (1984 & V for Vendetta) Essay\n...Through the dystopic texts of 1984 written by George Orwell and V for Vendetta directed by James McTeigue, the concept of a cautionary tale is portrayed by the dystopic qualities present in the highlighted texts. To which a dystopic text is an exploration of restrictive and controlling societies which reflect modern day concerns. To portray the texts as a warning story, Orwell and McTeigue give depictions of the dystopic qualities of their worlds, through the loss of independence and freedom and emphasise the importance of the individual through its loss in the dystopic societies. The qualities of Dystopia apparent in 1984 and V for Vendetta through the absence of Independence and Freedom provide groundwork for the texts classification of a cautionary tale. 1984 gives way to the oppressed protagonist of Winston Smith who through his experiences provide insight to the dystopia present in the novel.

Glycolysis yields two molecules of ATP (free energy containing molecule), two molecules of pyruvic acid and two \"high energy\" electron carrying molecules of NADH. Glycolysis can occur with or without oxygen. In the presence of oxygen, glycolysis is the first stage of Without oxygen, glycolysis allows cells to make small amounts of ATP. This process is called fermentation. 10 Steps of Glycolysis Step 1 The enzyme hexokinase phosphorylates (adds a phosphate group to) glucose in the cell's cytoplasm. In the process, a phosphate group from ATP is transferred to glucose producing glucose 6-phosphate. Glucose (C 6 H 12 O 6 ) + hexokinase + ATP \u2192 ADP + Glucose 6-phosphate (C 6 H 11 O6 P 1 ) Step 2 The enzyme phosphoglucoisomerase converts glucose 6-phosphate into its isomer fructose 6-phosphate. Isomers have the same molecular formula, but the atoms of each molecule are arranged differently. Glucose 6-phosphate (C 6 H 11 O 6 P 1 ) + Phosphoglucoisomerase \u2192 Fructose 6-phosphate (C 6 H 11 O 6 P 1 ) Step 3 The enzyme phosphofructokinase uses another ATP molecule to transfer a phosphate group to fructose 6-phosphate to form fructose 1, 6-bisphosphate.

In \u201cThe Black Cat,\u201d the mood is changed throughout the story which in the beginning is violent but towards the end changes to guilt as revealed through the symbol in this piece which was the black cat. The mood that is revealed through out the short story changes from violent to guilty. Obviously the author did what he did because he was under assumption of alcohol so he wasn\u2019t in his full senses. The author violently killed his cat in the very vivid description as told, \u201cI took from my waistcoat-pocket a pen-knife, opened it, grasped the poor beast by the throat, and deliberately cut one of its eyes from the socket! I blush, I burn, I shudder, while I pen the damnable atrocity\u201d (Poe 4). The description the author gave was given in the form of imagery but the author\u2019s diction was what made the scene feel very violent and harsh. Towards the end of the short story the author feels guilty and remorseful for killing his beloved cat. The author practically tells the reader that he is guilty and remorseful \u201cI experienced a sentiment half of horror, half of remorse, for the crime of which I had been guilty; but it was, at best, a feeble and equivocal feeling, and the soul remained untouched\u201d (Poe 4).

While this does account for a tremendous decline in tobacco users, it does not however depict the alarming premature death rate which is attributed to tobacco use. Currently more than 90 % of those individuals have begun tobacco use prior to 18 years of age, and for those individuals, more than 6 million have succumbed to premature deaths as a result of their exposures to tobacco related diseases (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), 2000-2004). According to the Surgeon General, \u201cEvery day, more than 1,200 people in this country die due to smoking. For each of those deaths, at least two youths or young adults become regular smokers each day.

Research Paper\n...the dystopic world that authors such as Bradbury and George Orwell pictures in their books, a world that exists under the image of utopia, and yet to the reader seems like a foreign, inhumane residence dominated by an all-powerful government. George Orwell's 1984, and Ray Bradbury's Fahrenheit 451 depicts two different dystopic worlds. The settings of both books are different and the characters are unique; however, both of these books are also very similar. 1984 and Fahrenheit 451 are similar dystopic literatures by a common theme of censorship in which the government withholds or censors information, by a similar thread of a totalitarian government running the dystopic world, and by a common knowledge of the truth that the protagonist and the antagonist both hold. Censorship is a remarkable simple concept: the ability of the government to withhold or change information that passes into the public. All governments have some form of censorship, and some governments have less censorship than others. Yet censorship can also become a difficult concept to grasp, for censorship allows the government to influence how people think. The less censorship there is, the more people begin to think, which according to standards today, is a good thing. However, totalitarian governments such as the ones in Fahrenheit 451 and 1984 do not want people to think. They want people to just do, and thus it becomes a perfect seemingly Utopian...\nRomeo & Juliet literally analysis Essay\n...\ufeffRomeo and Juliet is argued as one of the western worlds most famous \u201clove\u201d stories. It tells the story of two doomed lovers and takes place over a period of three days. Despite being known as a story of love and tragedy, it is one of must and rushed decisions as shown through foreshadowing, metaphors and the cruel irony of this staged love, shown in act 1 scene 1. Throughout the play Romeo is displayed of a character of love, if nothing he himself represents love and passion in its purest form, stumbling form one beauty to the next. In act 1 scene 1 of the play Romeo is desperately and painfully in love with Rosaline. Rosaline was Romeo\u2019s love from the commencement of the play, she did not return the love that Romeo bestowed upon her as she had taken vow to chastity in return for education. Rosaline not returning this love gives Shakespeare the opportunity to use hyperbole of Romeos love as a literary device to define Romeo\u2019s character as an overdramatized love obsessed teenage boy. Nothing suggests that Romeo loved Rosaline for anything other than her beauty. In act one scene one, Benvolio asks Romeo of his saddened love, Romeo replying \u201cBid a sick man in sadness make his will?\u201d (line 197). Romeo displays that he is, when without Rosaline, incapable of moving on with love and life for she is all he craves. His love for her sickens and saddens him to his core. However only a day later does he claims to fall recklessly in love with the beautiful Juliet Capulet and...\nLiterally Criticism: The Cask of Amontillado by Edgar Allen Poe Essay\n...Rafael G. Literary Criticism: The Cask of Amontillado When doing anything in life there are so many alternative ways of looking at something with all of them being influenced by what you see in the world around you. A teacher may see things that contrast from a politician; a doctor as opposed to a writer. Even the differences from a man to a woman or what part of the country you grew up in can dilute one way of thinking from the next. That is why considering things in ways that you may not usually is important for understanding and critiquing certain situations and outcomes. With this train of thought, we will take a look at Edgar Allen Poe\u2019s The Cask of Amontillado through five unique perspectives from different individuals. With each of these offering a better perception on what we know, and what we think we know. Biographical/Genetic Criticism: In an effort to better understand the story, one can look at it from a Genetic or Biographical point-of-view. Much of Edgar Allan Poe\u2019s own personal life experiences greatly influence this story as well as many of his other works. Poe\u2019s choice of literary style was called gothic fiction. It deals with the subjects of secrets, madness, darkness and death. This gothic style of writing is greatly influenced by disappointment and depression that followed Poe his entire life. This was caused by a number of unfortunate events in his life, including the untimely death of his birth mother and foster mother, a lifetime of...\nLiterally essay Of Mice and Men Comparison\n...\ufeffLiterally essay Of Mice and Men Comparison The experience of the speaker in Paul Laurence Dunbar\u2019s \u201cWe Wear the Mask\u201d is comparable to Crooks experience in chapter 4 of John Steinbach\u2019s Of Mice and Men. The mask being figurative refers to the emotional mask that covers and conceals one emotion which many blacks wore while being segregated because they were afraid of what would happen if they showed their true feelings. Crooks had a similar experience in chapter 4 in Steinbeck\u2019s book in which he backed down from an argument because he was afraid of the consequences that might fall on him because he was black. One of the lines from Dunbar\u2019s poem shows how effective one could use the mask to hide their anguish and sadness. \u201cWe wear the mask that grins and lies- It hides our cheeks and shades our eye-\u201c, the people in this poem used this \u201cmask\u201d to shade their eyes and cheeks which made other people incapable of seeing their true. This method of blocking true emotions is effective because often you can see the real feelings and emotions of a person by looking into their eyes and cheeks which are supposedly \u201cgateways\u201d to one\u2019s true self. By putting on an emotionless and blank persona you can show no sign of you ever being tortured by the hateful words thrown at you. Likewise Crooks also has to deal with hurtful comments such as the N word yet he abides and remains throughout the rest of the chapter with a blank emotionless tone and voice.

Click To Tweet\n\u201cThe product has to be top quality, but it also has to do good,\u201d says Rothschild, who has a \u201chandful\u201d of full time employees, and uses a third party logistics provider in Chicago, Planet Access, with a 75,000-square foot warehouse serving as the fulfillment center for packing and shipping, and also employing adults with disabilities.\n\u201cSocial mission is integrated end to end,\u201d says Rothschild, a native of the Chicago area.\nAccording to the Advertising Specialty Institute\u2019s 2018 Corporate Gift Giving Study, \u201c42 percent of employers plan to give gifts to workers. That\u2019s up from 40 percent in 2017. More than one-third (37 percent) of companies anticipate that they will provide gifts to prospects and clients.\u201d\nCompanies also give to their own employees, according to ASI. \u201cOf the companies planning to provide gifts to employees, a firm majority (75 percent) expect to include all workers in their gifting. On average, companies giving gifts plan to include nearly nine in 10 of all their employees in the altruistic outreach.\u201d\nAt a time when more companies and enterprises want to give purposeful gifts and be \u201cgood corporate citizens\u201d with social justice as an \u201cintegral part of the company\u2019s DNA,\u201d Rotshchild says her company matches mission with practicality, benefiting both the creator of the product and the recipient.\nShe has had a life of matching purpose with action. In her gap year before college, Rothschild spent a year in Mexico completing a service project for Rotary Youth Ambassador for Rotary International. After graduating from Wesleyan University in 2002, Rothschild joined the U.S. Peace Corps, living in Paraguay working on economic development opportunities for rural farmers.\nShe then worked for Euromonitor International, a global business intelligence company from 2005-2008, before pursuing a dual degree at Wharton School of Business at the University of Pennsylvania with an MBA and a degree in international studies from the Lauder Institute.\nFrom 2010 to 2014, she worked for a digital agency and then as a chief strategy officer for a financial consulting company.\nLooking around her office during the holiday at the tins of popcorn, baskets of fruit and containers of chocolates she received every year, she says she thought, \u201cThere is no way this is as good as business gifts get.\u201d\nBecause she had colleagues working with social justice enterprises and foundations with social missions, she wanted to marry the two and produce high quality products \u201cthat could produce multiple effects.\u201d\n@PackedwPurpose merges #socialjustice enterprises and the culture of gift-giving to produce high quality products that bridge the divide between business and social impact. Click To Tweet\nFocusing on corporate gifts for hundreds of clients, Rothschild says her company sent out 6,000 professional, corporate and personal gifts, and is on target to triple that this year.\nCorporate gift giving is a $60 billion per year business, and Rothschild\u2014who says she is no relation to the global entrepreneurial family\u2013 but the social enterprise community is \u201ca cottage industry.\u201d\nLooking for purveyors who help specific communities such as the disabled, domestic violence survivors, the homeless and veterans, Rothschild says partnering with Packed With Purpose assists in solid outcomes for these companies. In that way she is more of a dolphin tank for entrepreneurs, than a shark tank.\n\u201cAs we grow we help our purveyors grow,\u201d Rothschild says. \u201cWe are broadcasting their missions with a megaphone, but also broadcasting it with delicious toffee or beautiful notebooks.\u201d\nHaving far surpassed her own expectations for the venture in the past two years, Rothschild says she intends for her company to become a household name like Harry & David\u2019s.\nRothschild also says she can see a future expanding into more consumables and wearables. \u201cWe can create products and provide employment and social benefits.\u201d\nShe adds, \u201cEverything has a solution.

I know a couple of athlete mums like Jo Pavey and I hope I am an inspiration to other mums.\u201d\nFor a while it looked like it would be a British one-two as Katarina Johnson-Thompson made early headway but saw her hopes of a medal destroyed after failing to register a mark in the long jump.\nElsewhere Laura Muir booked her spot in Tuesday\u2019s 1500m final after she clocked 4:07.95 to take third in her heat \u2013 however there was disappointment for teammate Laura Weightman who had to withdraw following a fall in qualifying.\n\u201cI came out of this heat really, really well and it was one of my best races tactically,\u201d Muir said.\n\u201cI just need to take confidence in that and then it\u2019s just a matter of putting a great race together.\u201d\nIn the men\u2019s hammer there was disappointment for Nick Miller after he finished down in 11th and in the men\u2019s 100m neither Richard Kilty or CJ Ujah could progress to the showpiece final.",

There are three countries that have built space vehicles for people: Russia, China and the US. However, the US hasn't had a launch system for its astronauts made domestically since the retirement of the space shuttle program. NASA is getting closer to having more new launch systems made in the USA, and here are just a few links on the topic.\nA bill in Congress might ban the use of Russian rockets to launch military payloads into space. This move could accelerate plans to build new rocket designs made in America. [url]\nSpaceX software engineers answered some AMA questions a while back, saying that a mission to Mars might take 5-10 years. They also advised people to learn C and C++ and to work on programming side projects to develop skills. [url]\nNASA has completed a successful test of its Orion spacecraft on a United Launch Alliance Delta IV Heavy rocket which took the capsule to an altitude of 3,604 miles on its second orbit around the earth. No one was aboard on this test mission, but this is NASA's next generation vehicle for getting astronauts into (deep) space -- a space craft that could potentially do much more than previous Apollo missions.

You've gotta be kidding me!\nThey are both horrible languages--among the very worst in existence, without exaggerating in the slightest--in one of the most crucial areas for a project like space travel: resilience.\nThis isn't just hyperbole or theory; it's a historical fact. Most well-designed programming languages have features available to catch and deal with certain types of errors gracefully, or even to ensure that they're not possible in the first place. Depending on the language, these features may be turned off at times, and having one of these important safety features disabled was directly responsible for the Cluster explosion.\nBut here's the thing: C and C++ don't have these safety features at all. Writing anything mission-critical in either language, therefore, really should constitute an act of criminal negligence. It's extremely disappointing to see the folks at SpaceX making such flat-out stupid design decision!\nRe: among the very worst in existence\nThey didn't say to use C and C++ for mission-critical systems, they said to learn them.\nLearning low-level, primitive languages (including assembly) teaches valuable skills that are applicable in many other areas. Every well-seasoned programmer should know some of these low-level languages - well.\nThat said, despite the fact that you're correct that these languages have little or nothing in the way of \"safety features\", they nonetheless have a critical role to play in the software ecosystem. Almost all \"high level\" and \"safe\" languages today are implemented in C or C++, and for very good reasons (having to do with memory efficiency and fast execution).\nAs such, they are not \"among the very worst in existence\" - they merely have strengths and weaknesses, and places where they're appropriate, and not appropriate.\nJust like all the other languages.\n[FWIW, I have written a great deal of real-time code that runs close to the metal. Some of it even has flown in rockets.]\nLawrence D\u2019Oliveiro, 8 Dec 2014 @ 11:55pm\nRe: C and C++ for rockets?\nJPL DOCID D-60411 specifies a standard for the use of C for programming safety-critical systems from NASA\u2019s Jet Propulsion Laboratory. C is considered manageable for this sort of thing, C++ is not.\nJohn Fenderson (profile), 9 Dec 2014 @ 10:00am\n\"They are both horrible languages--among the very worst in existence, without exaggerating in the slightest--in one of the most crucial areas for a project like space travel: resilience.\"\nSorry, that is totally an exaggeration. There are many languages that are less protective than those.\n\"But here's the thing: C and C++ don't have these safety features at all. Writing anything mission-critical in either language, therefore, really should constitute an act of criminal negligence.\"\nI couldn't disagree more. The lack of safety features isn't necessarily an act of criminal negligence because the software development process can (and should) mitigate the need for built-in safety features. Reliance on the language itself to enforce software quality is one of the hallmarks of substandard software development.\nWhat those \"safer\" languages do is to allow development time (and therefore manpower costs) to be reduced by allowing less rigorous development methodologies to be used without causing a total disaster. However, using those languages presents a lot of technical trade-offs in terms of memory and CPU cycle use, determinism, and other such things. Depending on the project, those tradeoffs may be unacceptable.\nMason Wheeler (profile), 9 Dec 2014 @ 10:14am\nSuch as? In order to ensure a fair, apples-to-apples comparison, please restrict yourself to serious languages with a non-trivial market share. Anyone can create a crap language, but actually getting it accepted by the community takes some real doing. (Such as corporate sponsorship by AT&T!)\nReliance on the language itself to enforce software quality is one of the hallmarks of substandard software development.\nNot at all. It's a manifestation of the whole point of building computers in the first place: to automate tasks that are repetitive and boring, easily automated, and make sure they're done right every time.\nIt's a sign of humility, which, Larry Wall notwithstanding, is one of the highest virtues a programmer can manifest: demonstrating that they know when something is beyond their abilities and not trying to reinvent the wheel when an existing well-proven system can do it for them?\nHowever, using those languages presents a lot of technical trade-offs in terms of memory and CPU cycle use, determinism, and other such things. Depending on the project, those tradeoffs may be unacceptable.\nThat argument made sense back in the 80s. In the age of Raspberry Pis and Arduinos, it's a much less valid excuse.\nWell, assembly comes to mind first.\n\"demonstrating that they know when something is beyond their abilities and not trying to reinvent the wheel when an existing well-proven system can do it for them?\"\nI'm not sure why you're bringing this up, since it isn't really related to anything I said. However, I agree: if an existing, well-proven system can meet the needs, then it should be used.\n\"That argument made sense back in the 80s. In the age of Raspberry Pis and Arduinos, it's a much less valid excuse.\"\nNot at all. In my daily job at a major software company, we are constantly having to deal with memory & CPU cycle limitations. On modern desktop machines. In embedded systems such as on rockets, the limitations are a lot tighter and these considerations become even more important.\nIn the end, my point is that different languages excel at different things. You should use the right language for the job, and to write off one of the most popular languages on the planet (considering C and C++ as if they were a single language) as always the wrong choice is just as wrong as saying it's always the right choice.\nC/C++ was designed for low and mid-level programming tasks (technically, to write operating systems in) and excels at that. It's presence in embedded systems is not automatically a bad decision. It all depends.\nI would be remiss if I failed to link to this excellent comparison of many different languages and their strengths and weaknesses: http://web.mit.edu/~axch/www/footshoot.html\nOops, wrong link. Here's a better one: http://www-users.cs.york.ac.uk/susan/joke/foot.htm\n\"Assembly\" isn't a language as such; it's a one-to-one mnemonic mapping of the machine code for a given processor architecture. There's no such thing as \"the ASM programming language;\" rather, there's x86 assembler, x64 assembler, ARM assembler, and so on.\nAnd even if we granted that it's a real programming language, it still doesn't fit my criteria. When's the last time you heard of a program being written in assembly?\nIn my daily job at a major software company, we are constantly having to deal with memory & CPU cycle limitations. On modern desktop machines.\nAnd I'd bet that most of your dealing with it consists of fixing architectural problems, (such as refactoring bad algorithms to better ones with lower big-O complexity, and replacing inefficient data structures with better ones), and not micro-optimization. As a developer with extensive experience in both low-level and high-level work, I've observed that around 90% of the time that's where the big gains are found.\nYou should use the right language for the job, and to write off one of the most popular languages on the planet (considering C and C++ as if they were a single language) as always the wrong choice is just as wrong as saying it's always the right choice.\nI'm sure a job might hypothetically exist somewhere, for which C is the right choice. I have yet to actually see it.\nFor C++, on the other hand, I don't believe any such job exists or ever could exist. It may not be the worst programming language ever created, but it is without a doubt the worst ever to be taken seriously.\nBut you don't have to take my word for it; check out what one of the most accomplished computer scientists of all time had to say on the subject, when he was honored with the Turing Award. The excuse about language-level safety being a necessary trade-off to be given away due to constrained resources was well-known to be bogus way back in the 60s, many years (and Moore cycles) before C, and I would suspect, though I don't have any documents to show as evidence, that it was invented by the folks at Bell Labs to hand-wave away the horrendous flaws in the language they inflicted upon the world.\nC/C++ was designed for low and mid-level programming tasks (technically, to write operating systems in) and excels at that.\nIf by \"excels\" you mean \"does a terrible job,\" then sure. As a former coworker of mine used to say, \"Dennis Ritchie's true legacy is the buffer overflow.\" I have yet to see an OS written in C/C++ that did not require regular patching to deal with an unending stream of security vulnerabilities, the vast majority of which were directly the result of language flaws.\nOldMugwump (profile), 9 Feb 2015 @ 7:12pm\nFor a long time, and maybe still today, more space systems ran Forth onboard than any other language.\nYes, Forth. Which doesn't even have typed variables.\n\u201cThis move could accelerate plans to build new rocket designs made in America.\u201d\nI thought the idea of protectionism to build up local industries went out with GATT. Barriers to competition only lead to the creation of uncompetitive products.\n\"A bill in Congress might ban the use of Russian rockets to launch military payloads into space.

Modern languages don't work that way, if the sensor dies, the programs endlessly loop.\nSo we are wanting to dump on the Russians and jump to the Chinese bandwagon?

        "raw_content": "eBay v MercExchange ruling\nThe long-awaited U.S. Supreme Court ruling regarding the patent dispute between eBay and MercExchange has finally been decided.\nThis case is of importance because it rules on the strength of the injunction power awarded to patent holders in the United States. In this particular case, MercExchange held business method patents with regards to software search agent and fixed-price listing patents, and tried to get licences from eBay. When this failed eBay was sued and was found to be willfully infringing the patent, and they were subjet to an injunction that threatened to shut down part of the service.\neBay is objecting to the patent, which I hope they get. I mean, how much more generic can you get than getting a patent on selling stuff at a fixed price? However, eBay petitioned to the U.S. Supreme Court to decide on the issue of injunctive power. In the States, patent holders have considerable power to shut down infringers through injunctions, something that became evident with the Blackberry case. eBay has just won the case, which will make it more difficult for patent trolls to affect established businesses. The ruling states:\nThe traditional four-factor test applied by courts of equity when considering whether to award permanent injunctive relief to a prevailing plaintiff applies to disputes arising under the Patent Act. That test requires a plaintiff to demonstrate: (1) that it has suffered an irreparable injury; (2) that remedies available at law are inadequate to compensate for that injury; (3) that considering the balance of hardships between the plaintiff and defendant, a remedy in equity is warranted; and (4) that the public interest would not be disserved by a permanent injunction. The decision to grant or deny such relief is an act of equitable discretion by the district court, reviewable on appeal for abuse of discretion.\nPatent trolls beware.",

        "raw_content": "Finding Value in Waste\nThe great Peter Drucker once said, \u201cInnovation is the specific instrument of entrepreneurship. The act that endows resources with a new capacity to create wealth.\u201d The story of Liset and Ximena Contreras embodies this quote and much more.\nAs the number one exporter of Brazil nuts with 35 percent of the total market share, Bolivia cultivates approximately 20,000 tons of this product a year. Only 0.8 percent of the Brazil nuts are exported with their shell; the rest are cracked and their nutshells are discarded as waste. Liset, a 25-year-old Bolivian industrial engineer, came up with the idea of using discarded nutshells as a source of biofuel.\nThe nutshell waste is often produced in remote areas of the Amazon, and much of it is dumped in the Beni River, where it ferments and attracts mosquitoes with diseases like dengue fever. As Liset was researching this problem, she discovered that the nutshells had a higher calorific value than wood pellets, making them a potential source of fuel. Together with her sister Ximena, Liset founded PelletBol, a company dedicated to finding new uses for waste materials. As their first project, Ximena and Liset developed a method to compress the Brazil nutshells into pellets.\nPellets have an array of uses, the most common being food for livestock. Wooden pellets also are used as fuel for pellet-based heating machinery. Demand for pellets has grown in recent years because of rising fossil fuel costs and increasing awareness of global warming. In fact, biomass pellets are the most commercialized form of biomass in Europe, and it is expected that demand for biomass products will grow 44 percent between 2010 and 2020.\nPelletBol is the pioneer firm in this niche market in Bolivia. The company entered a TechnoServe business plan competition and was selected as a winner, allowing the company to receive one-on-one assistance from a specialized consultant for 10 months. PelletBol received $15,000 to invest in processing machinery thanks to the U.S. Agency for International Development, which provided cash awards to some business plan competition winner.\nTechnoServe also helped the Contreras sisters with their application to the Cartier Women\u2019s Initiative Awards, an international business plan competition that aims to identify, support and encourage projects by women entrepreneurs. Liset and Ximena were chosen as finalists for Latin America, and later this week in Paris they will present their business plan to a panel for judging. For their presentation, TechnoServe helped connect the sisters with Concepci\u00f3n University in Chile in order to analyze the energy content of the nutshells.\nImpact and Future Challenges\nAs the world's largest producer of shelled Brazil nuts, the Bolivian industry generates up to 100,000 jobs either directly or indirectly, and roughly 28,000 families depend on it for their income. The newfound use of Brazil nutshells will benefit impoverished communities in the Amazon region, where most of the Brazil nut trees are located. PelletBol obtains its shells through collectors and factories that process the product. The collectors make an average of $0.38 per kilogram. With an increased demand for nutshells, these men and women can sell their kilo at a price that is 7 percent higher.\nThe main challenge that this young enterprise faces is the lack of pellet-based heating systems in their home country. PelletBol is pushing for the implementation and promotion of these systems in Bolivia and hopes to reach the levels that Chile, Argentina and Brazil have. Their first goal is to provide heating fuel to the plateau area of El Salar de Uyuni, where there are low temperatures year-round and no natural gas available for heating. PelletBol also is investigating new ways of profiting on other forms of renewable biomass such as olive stones and quail dung.",

Buying and selling real estate is generally more complicated than buying or selling other expensive goods, such as cars or boats. With real estate, many different people can have an interest in the same property, tax consequences are more complicated, and possession is not necessarily indicative of ownership. An experienced real estate attorney can help you sort through all of the difficult decisions and negotiations involved in real estate transactions.\nA: Real estate (also called real property) refers to land and things attached to land. For most consumers, real estate consists of their home and the lot surrounding it. Commercial real estate may include factories, equipment, and other facilities. In addition to buildings and equipment, resources existing on (or under) the land, including minerals and gas, are part of real estate. Some of these components of real estate can be sold separately.\nA: Deeds indicate, and are generally required to transfer, ownership of real estate. A deed contains the names of the old and new owners and a legal description of the property and is signed by the person transferring the property. The different kinds of deeds, such as the warranty deed, quit claim deed and grant deed, transfer different interests in property. For example, a seller conveying property by a general warranty deed assures good and marketable title to the buyer and will defend the tile to the property from all persons. In contrast, a seller conveying property by a quit claim deed conveys only what title the seller may have to the property, with no warranty as to ownership or defects in the title.\nGeneral Information Concerning Real Estate\nThe following real estate legal information is general in nature. It is not intended to address your particular concerns regarding any real property or real estate litigation matter:\nReal estate law includes both federal and state issues, with the state-level rules varying widely from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. These state and federal laws encompass everything from ownership of land and buildings to related issues such as financing, leasing, construction, taxes, and environmental laws. A competent and experienced real estate Law Firm and/or attorney can protect a party\u2019s interests in both routine and complex transactions and disputes.\nReal Estate Contracts And Transfers\nThe agreement to sell between a real estate buyer and seller is governed by the general principles of contract law. The statute of frauds requires that real property contracts be in writing. Title to real estate must be marketable to be free from liability, which means that it must be free and clear of all encumbrances, liens, clouds, litigation risks, or other title defects. To ensure marketable title, the buyer typically employs an attorney or a title insurance company to perform a title search. In a title search, the searcher examines the public records in the county in which a property is located to map a chain of title by examining all the recorded deeds concerning the property. The title searcher will also determine if there are any encumbrances on the property, such as mortgages, unpaid real estate taxes, liens for municipal improvements, unpaid federal taxes, government claims, legal judgments, foreclosures, condemnations, covenants, and easements. A title insurance company will insure the buyer against losses caused by the title\u2019s invalidity.\nTo pass title, the seller must execute and deliver a deed with a proper description of the land. Many states require that the deed be officially recorded to establish ownership of the property and to provide notice of its transfer to subsequent purchasers.\nIndividuals, couples, businesses, trusts and/or any other organization involved in any type of real property transaction and/or dispute should always work with a Law firm and/or an Attorney with experience and knowledge of the court system where the Real Estate law matter will be and/or transacted and/or has been filed.

The seller and the broker sign a listing agreement, obliging the broker to work to find a buyer and the seller to pay the broker\u2019s commission if a sale results. A buyer may employ a real estate broker to locate suitable property. Real estate brokers are generally subject to rigorous licensing standards established by each state. As an agent, a real estate broker or salesperson has duties and obligations to the person who hired him or her. If an agreement to purchase the property is made, that agreement is strictly between the seller and buyer, and the broker is not a party to that agreement and generally makes no promises about the property.\nThe most common method of financing a real estate transaction is through a loan secured by a mortgage on the property. In California, that mortgage is called a Deed of Trust. A mortgage involves the transfer of an interest in land as security for an obligation. A borrower typically repays a mortgage in installments that include both interest and principal payments. If the borrower doesn\u2019t make payments, foreclosure can result, with the lender declaring that the entire mortgage debt is due immediately. Failure to pay the mortgage debt once foreclosure occurs results in the sale of the property to satisfy any remaining mortgage debt.\nThe actual foreclosure process depends on state law, the terms of the mortgage, and whether other liens exist on the property. Many states allow late payments to avoid foreclosure, and many lenders attempt to work out a payment plan to avoid a foreclosure. If a lender is threatening foreclosure, a borrower should immediately contact a competent and experienced real estate attorney to protect the borrower\u2019s interests and pursue all available resolutions.\nReal estate transactions and disputes involve many laws, which vary greatly from state to state. If you are buying or selling real estate or are involved in a dispute regarding real estate, it is in your best interest to get in touch with an experienced real estate attorney to ensure that your rights are protected.",

The conference promises to be bigger and bolder than ever with a diverse range of thought-provoking presentations and healthy discussions amongst industry professionals, political and technological leaders.\nThe topic for this year\u2019s conference is \u201cThe Changing Face of Transport in NZ\u201d.\nChange is in the air, as old patterns fall away and new energies are emerging. The current Government is committed to creating more liveable cities and thriving regions. To support this, our industry is working towards creating an efficient, modern and resilient transport system for New Zealand, across all transport modes. This system aims to improve safety, decrease congestion and increase economic growth.\nThis new approach is underpinned by two fundamental commitments by the Government: to address the widening infrastructure deficit in our regions, towns and cities, and to invest in the best projects, no matter what kind of transport modes they may be. The Government is committed to funding the projects that make the most difference.\nWith the creation of the Government Policy Statement on Land Transport (GPS) 2018, we are witnessing increased investment in regional roads, local roads, public transport, cycling and walking, as well as rapid transit and transitional rail. Stronger focus on safety is being incorporated into our road design to prevent crashes. We are also look into how we can future-proof our transport system so it is more resilient, efficient and environmentally sustainable.\nJoin us in March 2019.\nENZ Transportation Group 2019\nTe Papa from the water.\nPhotography by Amanda Rogers, \u00a9TE PAPA",

        "title": "Andrei Tarkovsky's Long, Confusing, Wonderful Films Hit YouTube - The Atlantic",
        "raw_content": "Andrei Tarkovsky's Long, Confusing, Wonderful Films Hit YouTube\nThe highbrow Soviet director's movies seem like a strange fit for the video site best known its cute kitten clips. But the experiment just might work.\nSolaris starts slowly. The Soviet original, filmed in 1972 and directed by Andrei Tarkovsky, opens with achingly apparent deliberation. The camera glides over running water, foggy plants, and gnarled trees. Protagonist Kris Kelvin (Donatas Banionis) stares out at all this nature, and his face exudes brooding Dostoevsky angst, all amid close-ups of a teacup as rain begins to fall. Unsmiling and decked out in a plain blue jacket and grey shirt, Kelvin stares up at the sky.\n\"Is this on mute?\" the a friend asked me after watching a few moments of Solaris. He was perplexed at the drawn-out pans of Russian streams.\nNo\u2014it's just Andrei Tarkovsky.\nBut the reaction of this guy, in his 20s and part of a culture dominated by the Internet, smartphones, and blockbusters like Fast Five (the top-grossing movie in the world these days), is hardly surprising. Modern audiences expect flash, conflict, at least some hint of a coherent narrative within the first few minutes of a film. A film like Solaris isn't particularly easy on modern media diets ... and of Tarkovsky's seven long meandering classics, it's often considered the most accessible. In the language of Netflix categories, it's \"mind-bending, cerebral,\" 165 minutes showcasing a man's voyage to another planet where he encounters his dead wife on the orbiting space station. Despite the fantastical-sounding plot, the film manages to be graceful and often psychologically devastating.\nThis spring, the Russian film studio responsible for most Tarkovsky films as well as many classics of Soviet cinema has begun releasing them free onto the Internet with English subtitles. Mosfilm first put out around 50 of the old masterworks, including several of Tarkovsky's features, and announced that it will continue to release around five additional films per week. The goal is 200 movies on the web by the year's end.\nThe real kicker? Mosfilm dropped these films on YouTube. Yes, YouTube.\nThe partnership between the nearly 90-year-old studio and the six-year-old, Google-owned titanic repository of 10-minute clips (perfect for kittens and quick one-liners) is a wonderful and forward-looking move. The cognitive dissonance of putting Andrei Tarkovsky's movies on YouTube is enormous, due to both the meticulous visuals, meant for a big screen, and the wildly different audience expectations associated with the mode of delivery and the subject.\nTarkovsky\u2014a man who saw himself as \"sculpting in time\" with his mystically oriented, leisurely epics--never produced art films that were easy to love. Today's audiences don't expect his dream-like long takes, his inscrutable departures from traditional narrative, the pretense of artistry. Just look at the controversy surrounding the coming film The Tree of Life's bizarre, unhurried, and ambitious style, crafted by the American director most reminiscent of Tarkovsky in approach, Terrence Malick. Tarkovsky's films are equally full of quirk: objects that float, an obsession with water, transitions from black-and-white to color without warning, and long pans of art.\nYet Tarkovsky is the man Ingmar Bergman, the acclaimed Swedish art film director, called \"the greatest.\" His films can be a lesson in patience, in a different way of thinking about and watching movies, and their addition to Mosfilm's YouTube channel should be viewed as an opportunity. His filmography, from Solaris to the haunting, baffling The Mirror (1975) to his offerings after he left the Soviet Union, like The Sacrifice (1986), pose a new way of seeing--in these long, maddening Tarkovsky takes, you don't have a choice, frankly.\nAlthough many may be familiar with Tarkovsky's later films, like Solaris and the minimalist, bewildering Stalker (1979), for films that offer real difficulty as well as reward, look to Tarkovsky's earlier movies from the 1960s. Particularly worthwhile is Tarkovsky's second feature, Andrei Rublev (1966), which presents a world so alien as to be untenable, perhaps, for many modern audiences.\nWhy untenable? Andrei Rublev is three hours and 25 minutes long, shot almost entirely without color, without a unifying narrative, and tells the story of a Russian monk and icon painter from the Middle Ages, our title character of Andrei Rublev (Anatoly Solonitsyn). No convenient romantic narrative lends itself to the drama and comedy of the scenes\u2014the closest thing the film offers is Andrei's friendship and conflict with two monkish associates, Kirril and Danil. Little flash characterizes the thoughtful, unusual film. For long stretches, the character of Rublev refuses to even speak. It is a story of faith and art, disease and travel, death and invasion, and achieves better fidelity of atmosphere to 15th-century medieval living than perhaps any movie in memory.\nPatience is a gift with a film like Andrei Rublev, and its many unconventional vignettes can stir real emotion if you're receptive to the world the film shapes. These darkly mesmerizing scenes show the bloodiness of a dying horse in battle, the ambition to craft authentic art, the pettiness and politics of dialogue, and the mystifying opening of the film, which shows a crowd's joy at launching a primitive hot air balloon. The movie is a stark reminder of just how truly different the Middle Ages must have felt\u2014for faith to be front and center amid so many endeavors and Tsarist confusions, the banter of a wandering jester, the naked bodies of pagans rushing past.\nWatching Andrei Rublev is rebellion, a challenge, and should be attempted even if you can't stand more than twenty minutes of such foreign moments ripped straight from a history that feels distinctly human. The experience is hardly easy and may need to happen in short bursts. Despite its difficulties, Tarkovsky gave audiences something genuinely touching and real in these scenes, which amazingly weren't even released to a mass audience until years after their filming. The impact has resonated throughout countless films since. I listened to U.S. filmmaker Julian Schnabel this month, and as he listed his influences, this was the first film he named.\nAndrei Rublev and Tarkovsky's other older films, such as his excellent and more dramatically straightforward debut Ivan's Childhood (1962), are available now on Mosfilm's YouTube channel. Just give one a few minutes\u2014and if you want to write it off as dreary or dated, that's fine. Understandable, even. The perfect kitten video is, no doubt, only a click away.",

        "raw_content": "Trump\u2019s Dirty War in Yemen\nThe president is aiding Saudi Arabia in an unlawful, unpopular, inhumane bombing campaign at odds with the foreign policy that he promised Americans.\nNaif Rahma / Reuters\nEarlier this year, three United States senators, including the Vermont progressive Bernie Sanders and the Utah conservative Mike Lee, authored a resolution to force the withdrawal of U.S. forces from a foreign war. But their effort did not concern Iraq, or Afghanistan, or Syria, as a casual observer of American foreign policy might expect.\nThey sought \u201cto direct the removal of United States Armed Forces from hostilities in the Republic of Yemen,\u201d explaining that \u201csince March 2015, members of the U.S. Armed Forces have been introduced into hostilities\u201d on the side of a Saudi-led coalition against the Houthis, a Shia rebel group trying to overthrow the country\u2019s regime.\nCongress never approved a war in Yemen. Most Americans are unaware of the conflict or of the involvement of their military and tax dollars. The ongoing intervention is at odds not only with the Constitution, but with the campaign rhetoric of President Trump, who led his voters to believe that he would preside over an \u201cAmerica first\u201d foreign policy. And polling data suggests that the American public as a whole is specifically averse to funneling weapons and money to the Saudi Arabian regime (much like the citizens of both Britain and France).\nYet months after a serious congressional effort to stop the U.S. intervention, Mike Pompeo, Donald Trump\u2019s secretary of state, is pushing to continue America\u2019s involvement, even as bureaucrats in the State Department\u2014the sorts of people Trump supporters denigrate as the \u201cdeep state\u201d\u2014are urging an end to U.S. military support for Saudi Arabia, the position that is more consistent with the Constitution, public sentiment, and the campaign rhetoric of the president.\n\u201cSecretary of State Mike Pompeo backed continued U.S. military support for Saudi Arabia\u2019s war in Yemen over the objections of staff members after being warned that a cutoff could jeopardize $2 billion in weapons sales to America\u2019s Gulf allies,\u201d the Wall Street Journal reported Thursday, citing a classified memo and sources familiar with the decision.\nThe newspaper added:\nMr. Pompeo overruled concerns from most of the State Department specialists involved in the debate who were worried about the rising civilian death toll in Yemen. Those who objected included specialists in the region and in military affairs. He sided with his legislative affairs team after they argued that suspending support could undercut plans to sell more than 120,000 precision-guided missiles to Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, according to a classified State Department memo and people familiar with the debate.\nWeapons sales to the Saudi-led coalition have already made the United States complicit in the grisly deaths of innocents. An especially catastrophic and well-documented example occurred in August, when a Saudi air-strike struck a school bus, killing 50 children and injuring 77 more. CNN established that the weapon that killed all those children was manufactured by the U.S. defense contractor Lockheed Martin.\nOne American\u2019s failed quest to save civilians in Yemen\n\u201cThe bomb is very similar to the one that wreaked devastation in an attack on a funeral hall in Yemen in October 2016 in which 155 people were killed and hundreds more wounded,\u201d the news organization added.\nIn the aftermath of the funeral hall attack, U.S. President Barack Obama banned the sale of precision-guided military technology to Saudi Arabia over \u201chuman rights concerns.\u201d The ban was overturned by the Trump administration's then-Secretary of State Rex Tillerson.\nThe UN says more than 16,000 Yemeni civilians have been killed. And that figure represents only a fraction of the horrors suffered in the country, where ongoing war puts 8 million at risk of starvation without aid.\nPeter Salisbury of the International Crisis Group sketched a disaster scenario that he now judges to be on the verge of happening. And at The American Conservative, Daniel Larison is scathing in his assessment of how the Trump administration has enabled past atrocities and made future carnage more likely, not only by selling the Saudi coalition weapons, but by falsely certifying that it is making humanitarian progress and signaling that excess death will have no consequences.\n\u201cThe White House and Pentagon went to the mat to prevent the Senate from voting to cut off military assistance this spring, they green-lit the start of the Hodeidah offensive at the start of the summer, and Pompeo and Mattis lied on their behalf to keep refueling of coalition planes going in the fall,\u201d he wrote:\nOne of the first things that the administration did was to end the limited restrictions that the Obama administration had imposed as they were on their way out, and they have made a point of giving the coalition free rein ever since. It is not a coincidence that civilian casualties from coalition airstrikes have risen over this same period of time. U.S. officials spend far more of their time concocting implausible defenses for U.S. military assistance than they spend on pressuring the coalition to stop attacks on civilian targets.\nUnlawful. Unpopular. Inhumane.\nThose are the characteristics of the war that the U.S. became involved in during the Obama administration and that it persists in prosecuting under Trump, even as the prospect of death by starvation for millions mounts. It is one more example of Trump rising to power by critiquing an unsavory aspect of America\u2019s governing elite, only to enter the White House and continue the same behavior with less shame and more callousness.",

        "raw_content": "Mexico Says Attack on U.S. Embassy Vehicle Was a Police Mix-Up\nAn attack on a U.S. embassy vehicle that reportedly wounded two Americans now appears to be a mix-up by Mexican police who were pursuing kidnappers, and that the car was either targeted by mistake or caught in the crossfire between police and suspects.\nUpdate (4:57 p.m. EDT): Reuters is now reporting that the attack on the U.S. embassy vehicle came from Mexican federal police officers who mistook it for one driven by kidnappers they were pursuing. But the Associated Press's latest update says the attack may have come from police or it may have come from other, \"unidentified gunmen\" who were pursuing the embassy vehicle, and with whom police exchanged fire. The two U.S. employees were police trainers, according to Reuters, but CNN reports that there was confusion about their identity: \"The Mexican official said three Mexican marines were wounded, some Mexican reports said two of the wounded were Americans, and a U.S. government official said the three victims were Americans.\"\nOriginal: For all the violence that plagues Mexico it's rare U.S. officials are targeted, but Friday's attack on a U.S. embassy vehicle, which injured two U.S. government workers, sure sounds deliberate. Not only did the Toyota sport diplomatic plates, but it \"was riddled with bullets, most concentrated around the passenger-side window, indicating possible involvement by experienced gunmen,\" The Associated Press' Michael Weissenstein reports. Two passengers were hospitalized \"one with a wound to the leg and the other hit in the stomach and hand,\" according to Weissenstein.\nSo far, The AP provides the only real account so far of what happened. The U.S. embassy hasn't commented on the shooting on a highway outside of Cuernavaca, south of Mexico City. Weissenstein cites a \"law enforcement official\" in his report, but specifies that the two Americans were not with the Drug Enforcement Agency or the FBI. A Mexican Navy captain was apparently also in the vehicle, but he escaped unharmed. Last month, a U.S. immigration agent was shot and wounded near the Texas-Mexico border, and last year a roadside attack killed one immigration agent and wounded another. But compared to the numerous attacks on Mexican police seen in the recent drug violence, U.S. law enforcement operating there have been relatively safe.",

        "raw_content": "Going Deep in Afghanistan\nFred Kaplan points out that what Robert Gates is asking the Europeans to do in Afghanistan won't really make a big difference. What's needed, instead, is something much larger:\nWhat is needed now goes well beyond Germany's reticence, goes well beyond NATO. What's needed is a full-blown initiative\u2014military, economic, diplomatic\u2014involving all the nations of the region. It requires imagination, tireless negotiations, heaps of money (in part to pay for other countries' troops, since we have so few to spare), and some unpleasant deal-making with some otherwise unpleasant nations.\nI think this re-enforces what I was saying earlier about Afghanistan. On the one hand, it's not possible to imagine a global effort of this scale succeeding without stepped-up American involvement. And on the other hand, it's not possible to imagine Europeans committing in this way to Afghanistan unless the United States is committing itself as well. If we want the Europeans to treat this as a major priority, in other words, we need to act like it's a major priority rather than as if the idea is for Europe to hold our coat in Central Asia so we can keep throwing more resources into Iraq.\nSpeaking of which, I recommended Fred Kaplan's book Daydream Believers: How a Few Grand Ideas Wrecked American Power back when I read it, rather than now when it's available in stores. Always a mistake. Kaplan is vital reading, as you can perhaps tell from my constant quoting of his Slate columns, and the book is no less vital. At this point, basically everyone can see that the Bush foreign policy has been a disaster. But what's still not well-understood is why it's been such a disaster. The book demonstrates that it's much more than a matter of Bush \"blundering\" or some such rather -- rather, as Kaplan lays out, Bush's policies have been driven by ideas that seemed right but are, in fact, wrong. Importantly, as Kaplan's recounting makes clear, the ideas, though wrong, tend to be at least somewhat plausible, raising the danger that the ideas themselves will continue to live in some form beyond Bush's presidency.\n(Of course, my book, Heads in the Sand is also good.)",

        "title": "Preparing for a Gig or Two - Articles - The Black Page",
        "raw_content": "Preparing for a Gig or Two\nThis month I wanted to discuss a topic that surrounds my music career constantly. When I asked Sean (our fearless leader, here, at The Black Page) about doing an article on preparation for a gig, he was all for it. \u201cThis will give us insight into one\u2019s creative/learning process,\u201d he claimed.\nThe timing on this couldn\u2019t be better as there has been a lot of \u201cthe process\u201d going on as of late. As players, we are, or should be, continuously learning new ideas, techniques, and tricks to add to our musical toolbox. And for any working musician, add to this the thousands of songs we have had to learn over the years for gigs, sessions, students or for our own personal musical expression. (Just a side note, who learns more songs than Kenny Aronoff? He has probably forgotten more songs than most learn in a lifetime!)\nIn the past month, I have had several gigs and sessions with new material popping up all of the time. Some songs were played once or a few times and I may never play them again, and others will be played on a regular basis when I am on a particular gig.\nThis article is about my preparation for two upcoming gigs in particular. They are both with very well known Canadian artists, Aaron Pritchett and Lisa Brokop, and both shows have great songs. If you remember from past articles, I don\u2019t take playing artist\u2019s original music lightly. These songs are their heart and soul, and they don\u2019t need some drummer, or any player for that matter, coming in and hacking and slashing through their work.\nActually in this case, the communication was email, as most is nowadays. The first email about Aaron\u2019s gig was from his bandleader/producer. In this case, a friend of mine has played drums in this band for quite a while, and has decided to pursue other career options, so they need someone soon.\nThe first item was to see their upcoming dates, and figure out if the schedule could work with what I already had booked. There were a few conflicts, a couple of which I subbed out of (I hate doing this, but sometimes you have to. Thanks to two very understanding friends). There were also two that I couldn\u2019t change (I didn\u2019t even want to try and sub out of my wedding!). After discussing this with Aaron\u2019s management and being totally upfront, we figured it out and then moved ahead. As of that time, the list of Aaron\u2019s shows spanned to the end of August 2008, with his new album being released in September.\nThe material was posted on their server and I was able to find all of the songs I needed. They also posted a live show\u2014if you can ever get the bands live show to learn from, do it. This gave me a great overview of what the material was, as well as what the attitude and approach on stage was. So now I can start learning the material that I will play every show.\nIn the case of Lisa Brokop\u2019s show, it is a little different. This email came from her manager the day after Aaron\u2019s, and was for two shows in June. Unfortunately, one of them was on the same night as our music school\u2019s year-end concert, so that was out. Usually when an artist has a few gigs in a row, they like to use the same players for consistency. I let them know that I could do one of the shows, and that I understood if they needed to find someone who could do both (A very important lesson to learn in this business is that it is okay to say \u201cno\u201d sometimes). It turned out that they couldn\u2019t find someone to do both shows, and wanted me for the one I could do.\nI have played Lisa\u2019s show quite a bit, but not for a while now as she has been at home in Nashville writing more hits. Her show will be material I have played, as well as material from her upcoming album, and my show notes also denote that this would be more of an acoustic/unplugged approach. I like this idea as it suits her material very well. However, as a band, we all live in different cities so rehearsing isn\u2019t an option (more on this in a bit). Lisa emails me all of the new material the week before her wedding, not sure how she had the time. Now I can get working on these songs that I will play for her show.\nI have to decide how to approach learning this material efficiently and musically. The first thing I will do is write out Aaron\u2019s songs, mark the tempos, and fill in the parts. Everyone has their own way of writing out songs, and I use several different approaches, depending on the type of material. I really like reading a Nashville Number Chart, and do my own hybrid that I call a slash chart. It gives me a great glimpse of the song's arrangement (which I view as the most important part for a drummer, seeing as we are directing musical traffic on stage). It also leaves room for last minute changes to an arrangement, and there is lots of space for writing in parts. I will cover charting songs in an upcoming issue of The Black Page.\nI do the charts for Aaron\u2019s material as it is on his CDs. Then I review the live show to check on arrangement changes, endings, etc. There are some definite changes that have been made, so I alter my charts accordingly. Also some tempos have changed for the live show, and I make note of this as well. I forgot to mention that they run sequenced tracks on Aaron\u2019s live show. This is happening more often these days where a band will run backing tracks from a computer with percussion and other instruments that fill out the song for a live show. There is a click on these tracks, so those tempos and arrangements are set. Who runs the computer on the live show you ask? Why not the drummer? Aaron has tracks on 90% of his material; it will be busy first show.\nI am a believer that the more information we know, the more valuable we are to a situation. I can play drums and percussion, I can sing, and I understand the program Pro Tools and can run this on a computer. These skills all add up in getting a shot at a gig. We still have to play our best all of the time to keep the gig. (Attitude plays a huge part in this as well).\nFor Lisa\u2019s show, I get a start on the material, but Aaron\u2019s show is first and this takes priority. I have started planning for Lisa\u2019s acoustic set a bit and have a few ideas. My first concern is that there will be a drum kit there for our backline but no percussion, and I believe this should be the direction of the show. I could send an email to management asking for specific instruments to be at the gig, but this is just being a pain. My other concern is space; I am flying to this show and can\u2019t take everything I might need with me. I have decided to use my Roland Handsonic and program kits for Lisa\u2019s material. This unit is portable and sounds very good, even though it is electronic. I think a combination of this with some acoustic drums will work great, but I won\u2019t know until the afternoon of the show, as sound check will be our rehearsal.\nCAN WE PRACTICE THAT SONG ONCE MORE?\nRehearsals, what rehearsals? I have become so accustomed to doing shows with limited or no rehearsal, that it doesn\u2019t bother me in the least. Playing a festival in front of thousands of people and making them believe that you have played the material for years is my job. I also want everyone on stage to feel very comfortable playing, and I make this a priority. When was the last time you did a gig and it was just about you? I have never done one like that. My goal for the first show is to play solid time, nail the arrangements as musically as possible, not wreck the computer, and make all of the players forget that I am the new guy.\nSo my first day with Aaron shapes up like this:\nFly to Edmonton, early AM.\nMeet band and crew, board tour bus and drive to destination (Approx. 4 hours).\nSetup and sound check, rehearse a few tunes.\nDinner with promoter.\nLisa\u2019s show day will be very similar to this, but a little quieter on stage, I am sure. Even though the gig with Lisa is only one show, I am going to go the extra mile because that is what I do. If I don\u2019t do a great job, I may not get the call for another gig if it comes up. Even if I don\u2019t get the call for future gigs, I still know that I did my best and can live with that.\nFINAL PREPERATION\nMy charts are done and are in cover sheets in my binder. I have listened to the material lots, but not too much. I will have a chance to play through the material later today, so what else is there to do?\nI have spoken to Aaron\u2019s management and let them know of some specific items I need for backline gear. When you take on the role of an endorsing artist, you are there to promote their product and are required to use these products. I need to let them know what drums, heads and cymbals I use, even though I always try to bring my own cymbals and snare.\nI also have to find out what monitoring gear I may need. I always carry my in-ear monitors as well. I am not a fan of the \u201cDrummer PA\u201d for a monitor. I need my ears to keep working. I will need enough sticks and brushes to get me through the trip, and my practice pad will also be packed, as always. I bring extra batteries, a click and power supply, drum keys, dampening products and any other accessories that might save the day. Also I always ask what the attire is on the gig. (Nothing worse than not getting the \u201csuit-memo\u201d and showing up in jeans and a t-shirt). My motto is you can never be too prepared, and don\u2019t rely on anyone else to take care of you. I will let you know how the gigs went and if I broke the Macbook.\nGo to http://www.jaysonbrinkworth.com/teaching.htm (using charts) to see a rough example of the slash charts I am talking about. I will explain, in detail, in a future issue.",

        "raw_content": "CES Devotional: The Unspeakable Gift of the Holy Ghost\nIndividuals must earnestly seek and follow the guidance of the Holy Ghost, Elder Jay E. Jensen of the Presidency of the Seventy said during the Church Educational System Devotional held in the Marriott Center on the Brigham Young University campus on Sunday night.\n\u201cThe Holy Ghost is vital and \u2026 we should earnestly seek His companionship, guidance and gifts,\u201d Elder Jensen said. \u201c[It is] truly an unspeakable gift.\u201d\nElder Jay E. Jensen of the Presidency of the Seventy speaks at a Church Educational System broadcast for young married and single adults at BYU in Provo Sunday, Jan. 8, 2012. Photo: Photo by Jeffrey D. Allred, Deseret News\nTeaching more about the \u201cunspeakable gift,\u201d Elder Jensen focused on three themes \u2014 the missions of the Holy Ghost, conditions to receive the Holy Ghost and how to recognize direction from the Holy Ghost.\nThe missions of the Holy Ghost\n\u201cThe Holy Ghost is sometimes called the Spirit, appropriately called the Holy Spirit, the Spirit of God, the Spirit of the Lord, and the Comforter,\u201d he said. \u201cThe Holy Ghost has certain missions or responsibilities.\u201d\nElder Jensen identified four missions of the Holy Ghost \u2014 to testify of the Father and the Son, testify of truth, sanctify and teach.\n\u201cDuring my mission I began a daily study of the scriptures,\u201d he said. \u201cMy scriptural knowledge, my testimony and my faith in God and in His Son, Jesus Christ, were strengthened by divine doctrine, by spiritual experiences and personal revelation.\u201d\nIt is through seeking out the Spirit individuals are able to experience a witness of the Holy Ghost that testifies of truth.\nThe Ogden Institute Choir sing prior to Elder Jay E. Jensen of the Presidency of the Seventy speaking at a Church Educational System broadcast for young married and single adults at BYU in Provo Sunday, Jan. 8, 2012. Photo: Photo by Jeffrey D. Allred, Deseret News\n\u201cThe Holy Ghost reveals the truth of all things,\u201d he said. \u201cSincere seekers who read the Book of Mormon and pray and ponder with real intent to know of its truthfulness are promised they will know it is true, \u2018and by the power of the Holy Ghost [they] may know the truth of all things' \" (Moroni 10:5).\nThe Holy Ghost also sanctifies and is central to God\u2019s plan of salvation and the gospel, Elder Jensen said. \u201cThe word 'sanctify' comes from the Latin and has two roots; 'sanct,' meaning \u2018holy\u2019 and 'facere,' meaning \u2018to do or to make,\u2019 literally meaning \u2018to make holy.\u2019\u201d He said, \u201cIn our religious use of the word, 'sanctify' simply means to purify or make free from sin, a central message of the restored gospel. \u2026 The Holy Ghost is the sanctifier, and because of Him and through the infinite Atonement we may stand spotless, clean and pure.\u201d\nElder Jay E.

Photo: Photo by Jeffrey D. Allred, Deseret News\nIt is also through the role of the Holy Ghost that individuals are able to teach and learn through the Spirit. \u201cThe role of the Holy Ghost is to teach,\u201d he said. He is the true teacher. My role is not to cover material or get through the lesson, rather \u2026 I am to preach, teach, expound, exhort, warn and invite by the Spirit. My role is to be an instrument in creating an atmosphere for the Spirit to do what He does in the divine process. \u2026\n\u201cI witness to you that He has other important responsibilities or missions. He is the Comforter. He restrains or constrains, he leads, He warns and He rebukes.\u201d\nBYU students sing prior to Elder Jay E. Jensen of the Presidency of the Seventy speaking at a Church Educational System broadcast for young married and single adults at BYU in Provo Sunday, Jan. 8, 2012. Photo: Photo by Jeffrey D. Allred, Deseret News\nConditions to receive the Holy Ghost\nElder Jensen described some of the conditions required for individuals to receive the Holy Ghost. He said that individuals must have a desire, be worthy, and alert \u2014 both spiritually and physically \u2014 to have the Spirit of the Lord with them.\n\u201cTo have the unspeakable gift of the Holy Ghost, we must keep the commandments,\u201d he said. \u201cI believe you know what evils offend the Spirit, and I will not mention them. \u2026\n\u201cWe live in a very busy world when many things clamor for our time and attention,\u201d he said. \u201cIt is by design that we encourage punctuality to meetings, especially sacrament meeting, to listen to the prelude music, prepare to have the Spirit, and receive revelation. We fast, we pray, we ponder, we attend the temple, and we learn to be good listeners and observers.\u201d\nElder Jensen spoke of the desire individuals must have to ask, seek and knock to receive the Holy Ghost. It is through that desire, he said, that they are able to experience the power of God.\nHow to recognize direction from the Holy Ghost\n\u201cI find it difficult to teach how to recognize direction, guidance and spiritual promptings,\u201d Elder Jensen said. \u201cSuch experiences are personal and often tailored to the individual and the conditions I just described. There are a few patterns, however, that I have experienced and have learned from others.\u201d\nSome of the patterns include: feelings of peace to one's mind, a witness both in one\u2019s mind and heart, a witness from studying things out in one\u2019s mind, and a burning of the bosom. It is through these witnesses of the Spirit that individuals are able to receive direction from the Holy Ghost, he said.\n\u201cI believe receiving \u2018peace to the mind\u2019 is one of the most common ways to recognize direction from the Holy Ghost,\u201d he said. \u201cSynonyms of peace are serenity, tranquility, harmony and stillness, while its opposites are confusion, anxiety, distraction, stirred up and disharmony. \u2026 Revelations to the mind are often specific words, ideas, even sentences, while revelations to the heart are general feelings associated with peace.\u201d\nQuoting President Gordon B. Hinckley, Elder Jensen said, \u201cHow do we know the things of the Spirit? How do we know if it is from God? By the fruits of it. If it leads to growth and development, if it leads to faith and testimony, if it leads to a better way of doing things, if it leads to godliness, then it is of God. If it tears us down, if it brings us into darkness, if it confuses us and worries us, if it leads to faithlessness, then it is of the devil.\u201d\nIt is through seeking out, recognizing and acting on impressions from the Holy Ghost that individuals are able to grow in their ability to recognize promptings and follow the will of God.\n\u201cI humbly pray that you will desire more earnestly to be worthy of the unspeakable gift of the Holy Ghost; that you may recognize His promptings and grow in ability to do so; that you may be still and know the Father and the Son through the Holy Ghost; and that you will express gratitude for Him and His guidance.\u201d",

A new runway is expected to increase aircraft movement to 45 per hour from 25. PHOTO | FILE\nThe bank said the loan would boost the Kenyan government\u2019s efforts to make Nairobi an aviation hub.\nThe project is also expected to enhance regional integration and expand international trade via improved regional and international air connectivity.\nBesides, the expansion will facilitate high-value exports and imports and increase tourist earnings.\nBy MATHIAS RINGA\nThe African Development Bank (AfDB) has approved a $160 million loan for the expansion of Kenya's main airport in Nairobi.\nThe continental multilateral lender said Wednesday that the credit would boost Kenya's efforts to make Nairobi an aviation hub.\nThe upgrade project at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport will see the construction of a 4.9km second runway built to the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) Category Two standards, and includes connecting taxiways, additional parking stands for aircraft, and an air rescue firefighting unit.\nThe existing single runway is operating at Category Flights Conditions level one (CAT-1) with a width of 45m and 4.1-kilometre long.\nKenya has been planning to construct a second runway at JKIA for years to ease pressure on the existing one.\nREAD: Questions emerge over second runway project at JKIA\n\u201cThe second runway will support more air traffic and facilitate increased tourism and business travel and expedite a two-way cargo traffic,\u201d said AfDB's Amadou Oumarou, a director of Infrastructure, Cities and Urban Development, who worked on the project.\nWith the expansion, Kenya hopes to improve reliability of air traffic at JKIA and the airport\u2019s operational efficiency by reducing delays at peak hours and costly flight diversions arising from incidences on the existing runway.\nFurther, the project is expected to enhance regional integration and expand international trade with improved air connectivity. It will also facilitate high-value exports and imports and increase tourist earnings.\nIn addition, the project will improve airport capacity and resilience for direct intercontinental flights to North America and Australia.\nThis is expected to increase access for Kenyan floricultural produce to new markets.\nAfDB notes that on completion, the project would significantly increase tourism and business travel annually by 4.2 per cent between 2026 and 2052, while two-way cargo traffic is projected to annually grow by 5.1 per cent over the same period.\nTogether, growth arising from aviation, tourism, and floriculture, is estimated to generate about 1.5 million jobs and add about $22.7 billion (estimated as at 2016) in added-value to the national GDP.",

        "raw_content": "Former Venice, Fla., City Manager Describes Shen Yun as Perfection\nFormer Venice city manager Dale Rieth after watching Shen Yun Performing Arts at the Venice Performing Arts Center on Feb. 6, 2016. Mr. Rieth said that the performance moved him to tears. (Edie Bassen/Epoch Times)\nVENICE, Fla.\u2014The classical Chinese dance company that has become a global sensation gave its first of three performances in Venice, Florida, at the Venice Performing Arts Center on Saturday, Feb. 6.\nAmong those attending the performance was former Venice city manager Dale Rieth.\n\u201cEverything was perfection,\u201d Mr. Rieth said after watching the performance. \u201cI expected a lot, but it was even greater than that.\u201d\nMr. Rieth served as Venice city administrator from 1972 to 1976, and as Venice city manager from 1976 to 1986. Currently he serves on the board of directors of The Sarasota Ballet company.\n\u201cI\u2019ve been in China a couple times in the last two or three years, but I never saw anything like this. This was wonderful\u2014just in every way. It was so artistic. Everything was exactly as it should have been. It was perfection,\u201d he said.\nShen Yun was founded in New York in 2006 with the mission to revive 5,000 years of divinely inspired Chinese culture. Since its inception, the company has performed around the globe, introducing the beauty of traditional Chinese culture to millions.\nThe hallmark of Shen Yun\u2019s performances is classical Chinese dance, an ancient art form that requires an extremely high skill level. Chinese dance is able to express profound emotions through its movements.\n\u201cIt made me cry,\u201d Mr. Rieth said after watching the performance and added that it left him with a good feeling.\n\u201cI was right in step with them all the way. It was if I was there. I just felt I was part of the story.\u201d\nEvery Shen Yun performance includes the company\u2019s own orchestra, which is unique in that it combines both classical Chinese and Western instruments, creating a seamless and harmonious balance between the Eastern and Western musical systems.\nThe performances also feature solo vocal pieces. Shen Yun singers are unparalleled in the world in their ability so sing Chinese lyrics while using bel canto technique.\nMr. Rieth said that in the past, he didn\u2019t care for Chinese music or singers, but that the performance achieved a balance between the two cultures.\nWhile Shen Yun has performed in over 100 cities around the world, the company is currently unable to perform in China, as the Chinese regime continues to persecute those who showcase China\u2019s true traditional culture and values.\n\u201cIt\u2019s sad because I know that there are many Chinese who have just the opposite feeling that\u2019s being expressed by the [Chinese] government,\u201d Mr. Rieth said.\n\u201cI would urge everyone who hasn\u2019t ever seen this to come as soon as possible because they\u2019ve never seen anything like it before.\u201d\nMr. Rieth added that he would definitely come again next year if there\u2019s a new program. He can be reassured that Shen Yun presents an all-new program each year.\nReporting by Edie Bassen and Jasper Fakkert",

(Courtesy of NTD Television)\nCOSTA MESA, Calif.\u2014Dr. Ali Parsa is a history professor at Cal State Fullerton. On the evening of April 16, he was among the full-house attending Shen Yun Performing Arts at the Segerstrom Center for the Arts in Costa Mesa.\nAfter watching the show, Dr. Parsa could hardly contain his excitement. \u201cI\u2019m so proud, so happy and so thankful to be here and witness all these great things. I have some knowledge of traditional Chinese culture. This show just brought it to life. I will tell my students that they have to come and see this because this shows how great the Chinese civilization is.\u201d\nEstablished in 2006 with the mission to revive the traditional Chinese culture, Shen Yun Performing Arts has been touring the world every year, displaying the essence of the Chinese culture in the language of dance and music.\nAs a history professor, Dr. Parsa looks at the show from a different angle. He said, \u201cShen Yun is more than a show. It is a culture. It is thousands of years old. Unfortunately it has been suppressed in China in the name of European communism. It\u2019s great that Shen Yun is bringing the culture back to life and preserving it. The culture is preserved by the great dancers and artists. It\u2019s such an amazing experience. I could not be happier in my life!\u201d\nA Shen Yun performance also features vocalists. The lyrics and music are original and filled with philosophical reflections on life. Dr. Parsa appreciated the deeper meaning of the lyrics, and said, \u201cIt was very, very touching. It really penetrated my heart.\u201d\nMr. Parsa was very grateful for the opportunity to watch Shen Yun: \u201cI hope for more of this. I hope for Shen Yun\u2019s success. I would recommend it to everybody from every culture.\u201d\nReporting by NTD Television and Sophia Fang",

(Courtesy of NTD Television)\nNEW YORK\u2014Anddy Matos and Hector Bardeguez couldn\u2019t have been more positive in describing their experience of seeing Shen Yun Performing Arts at the Lincoln Center on March 4\u2014and being in the media business, they know what they\u2019re talking about.\nMs. Matos is an associate producer at A+E Networks who previously worked at CBS and CNN, and Mr. Bardeguez is an associate media manager at CBS News.\n\u201cIt was amazing,\u201d enthused Mr. Bardeguez. \u201cIt was absolutely out of this world. And I got so much more than just a dance concert. I was blown away by the music, the colors, the dancing, the spirit\u2014Just wow!\u201d\nMs. Matos was equally effervescent in her initial description of the evening, touching on virtually every aspect of the performance.\n\u201cI was really captivated by everything that I saw. The dancing was incredible, so precise, so uniform. The fashion was spectacular. I\u2019m very into fashion, so [it] was like jaw dropping, \u2018Holly molly!\u2019 It was incredible, I loved it. The singing was \u2026 I don\u2019t even know how to describe it\u2014it was so indescribable. It went really deep in my heart. It was something that really shook you to your core but in a very positive way.\u201d\nThe New York performance features three award-winning soloists who sing Chinese lyrics (with English translations projected) in authentic bel canto style. All the scores and lyrics are composed specifically for Shen Yun.\nThe overarching narrative of everything was just beautiful, uplifting.\n\u2014 Hector Bardeguez\nElaborating a little more on what it was that moved her so much, Ms. Matos described how much she got out of the song lyrics.\n\u201cIt was very positive, talking about heaven and about being your best self. And that\u2019s a very positive message regardless of where you come from, where you live, and where you\u2019re going. And that is very important. A lot of people struggle in life, so this is like, \u2018Okay. I can deal with this,'\u201d Ms. Matos said.\nThis positivity has ancient origins. New York-based Shen Yun\u2019s aim is to revive traditional Chinese culture\u2014a culture said to have been a gift from divine realms. The program notes explain: \u201cShen Yun draws inspiration from China\u2019s 5,000-year-old civilization and the virtues it long embraced\u2014compassion and loyalty, kindness and bravery.\u201d\nMr. Bardeguez picked out similar themes in describing how Shen Yun struck him.\n\u201cThe overarching narrative of everything was just beautiful, uplifting. It touches on universal themes of love and community and honor, and it\u2019s something that everybody can really connect to,\u201d he said. \u201c[I] hope more people can get a chance to see it, because it\u2019s just absolutely incredible.\u201d\nSpeaking about the dancing specifically, Mr. Bardeguez said he could feel the \u201cpositivity and the spirituality\u201d come through the dance pieces.\nMr. Bardeguez also mentioned the impact of the costumes, and how even they boosted his spirits.\n\u201cBy just seeing the clothes I felt uplifted, and seeing the bodies move with the clothes, it really painted the mosaic that told the story. It was really wonderful.\u201d\nShen Yun\u2019s costumes are an integral part of why audiences find the experience so special. Every hand-sewn detail on every costume is designed to be a genuine presentation of attire worn at the time and place being depicted, whether they be the garbs of emperors, generals, or heavenly maidens. At the same time, the designers strive for harmonic balance and contrast in their color choices, according to Shen Yun\u2019s website.\n\u201cThe fashion was impeccable, breathtaking, the color combinations, the way the fabric just swayed,\u201d commented Ms. Matos, with her special eye for style.\n\u201cIt was very captivating and also it really showed a lot of movement: How clothes can mimic water, how clothes can mimic wind,\u201d she said.\nWrapping up his thoughts, Mr. Bardeguez gave this advice to anyone seeing Shen Yun: \u201cReally go in with an open heart and open mind and just expect the unexpected.\u201d\n\u201cEveryone should go see it. I recommend it 100 percent,\u201d said Ms. Matos.\nReporting by Gary Du, NTD Television, and Cindy Drukier.",

        "raw_content": "Comment | Let\u2019s talk about Gaza\nPosted on 3rd August 2014 by The Gryphon Web Editor\nThe conflict currently raging in Gaza is the third in six years. I use the word \u2018conflict\u2019 to describe the confrontation between Israel and Hamas, the Islamic Resistance Movement that governs the Gaza strip, with hesitation. In fact, I probably shouldn\u2019t use it at all. This is because the word \u2018conflict\u2019 inadequately conveys the full measure of inequality between the two sides: occupier and occupied.\nSince the Israeli army took over the Palestinian Territories in 1967, the country\u2019s government have spent many hours and millions of dollars persuading the international community that the occupation was temporary. At the same time, Israel made calculated moves to ensure the very opposite. Nearly five decades later, Israel has entrenched its matrix of control over Palestinian land through the creation of far-flung Israeli settlements, the crushing of all resistance and, perhaps most importantly, the severing of the West Bank from the Gaza Strip.\nQuite simply, Israel has imprisoned the Palestinian population. The occupation tightly controls every aspect of Palestinian life, and I mean every. In the West Bank, children have difficulty getting to school, parents to work, the sick and injured to hospitals, because Israel has erected hundreds of checkpoints and roadblocks obstructing Palestinian movement around their own country. In 2002, Israel began constructing the now nearly-completed \u2018Separation Barrier\u2019, a huge concrete monstrosity which has confiscated scores of land, demolished countless homes and crops, cut off many Palestinians from their means of survival, and made travel even more difficult for the entire West Bank population.\nIn the Gaza Strip the situation is even worse. Nearly 1.8 million people are contained within a tiny enclave that has been under Israeli siege since Hamas came into power. Lest we forget, in 2006 Hamas won a fair and free Palestinian election and formed a government seeking a long-term ceasefire with Israel. Israel refused to negotiate. Since then the Gaza Strip has been blockaded by land, air and sea. (Illegally, of course, but international law has never bothered Israel) Trade is blocked. Travel is nearly impossible. Water is contaminated. Hospital supplies are lacking. Israel controls everything, including the daily amount of calories that the population of Gaza are allowed to consume. \u201cThe idea is to put the Palestinians on a diet, but not to make them die of hunger,\u201d a senior Israeli official stated at the beginning of the siege.\nIn just over three weeks, Israel has killed more than 1,365 Gazans. The merciless bombing of houses, schools and hospitals has meant that approximately 80% of the casualties have been civilian. As always, Israel claims to be attacking Gaza in self-defence, blaming the victims of its military aggression for their own misfortunes. Yet, the real cause of this confrontation between Israel and Hamas is the 47-year-old occupation of the Palestinian territories. After 24 days of bombing, Israel still refuses a comprehensive ceasefire that meets the minimal and unified demand of all Palestinians \u2013 to lift the siege and let people lead normal lives. Until this happens Hamas will continue to resist, Israel will continue to obliterate the Gaza strip and the civilian death count will continue to rise.\nCharlotte Drax\nPosted in CommentTagged Gaza, gaza conflict, gaza strip, hamas, Islamic Resistance Movement, israel, palestine, west bank\nComment | We need Internet activism\nFeatures | \u2018Yes\u2019 for Scottish Independence or are we \u2018Better Together\u2019?",

        "raw_content": "Sambhali Trust (India)\nSambhali Trust is an NGO located in the Rajasthan region of India, in the city of Jodhpur, and the organization devotes its time and efforts mainly to assisting women of the Dalit community, who suffer injustices based not just on gender but also by a rigid caste system which has them placed low in lineage. Dalit literally means \"broken down\" or \"ground\", and Dalit people are consider beneath the entire caste structure in India, essentially assigning people by birth alone into complete societal outcast. In a largely patriarchal society, this puts Dalit women up against a seemingly insurmountable wall.\nWhile India has national laws against such discrimination, the social structure is strongly in place and remains very much a challenge for people once considered \"untouchables\". Many of these women have lives wrought with physical, verbal, and sexual abuse, from within their family circles and the communities around them. Sambhali Trust, in operation since 2007, works to give these women a voice and independence by teaching them practical skills, such as English, math, and Hindi, as well as providing a unique support system in which to express and reach for their individual goals.\nThis past week, I got an email from Annika Gulcher, a volunteer working with Sambhali Trust, and she asked if, even though we don't have an India list started yet, we would consider putting the organization on The NGO List. After doing a little investigation on the non-profit's website, I thought I'd one up her and go ahead and feature Sambhali Trust this week and ad them to the Featured NGOs page for now, until I get these guys a little company to start an India list.\nAll in all, Sambhali Trust has eleven projects in place helping to empower women and children of Rajasthan, including vocational groups, educational initiatives, a safe home for 20 local girls, and sponsorships that help over 130 children attend school . Sambhali Trust aims to instill self-esteem into its participants, to help them help themselves economically, and to teach people the skills necessary for fruitful lives, no matter caste, color, creed, gender, or language.\nThe first Prime Minister of India, Jawaharlal Nehru was truly insightful when he said \u201cYou can tell the condition of a Nation by looking at the status of its Women.\" For India to progress and develop as a country, it is essential to work towards elevating and empowering the women of India, a mission Sambhali Trust is dedicated to working towards.\nSambhali Trust offers volunteering opportunities in both rural and urban settings throughout Rajasthan, allowing volunteers to get an incredibly unique insight into many facets of Indian culture. Past volunteers have ranged in age from high schoolers to grandparents, with diverse individual skill sets, and most importantly, with a will to work towards a making a difference for others. While Sambhali prefers volunteers to devote two or three months to the cause, if volunteers have something particularly useful to offer, the organization is happy to accept a shorter amount of service. Regardless, volunteers are expected to treat their time at Sambhali Trust as true work, worthy of staying on schedule, devoting to tasks, and maintaining standards of professionalism.\nIf you are interested in volunteering with Sambhali Trust, take a look at some of the experiences of others and then contact Mr. Govind Singh Rathore, at info@sambhali-trust.org with a CV and details why you want to volunteer for Sambhali Trust, as well as any interests or skills you think would fit within one of Sambhali's different projects.\nThe Five Founders of Sambhali Trust",

Unaccountable\nYou know how much I love quoting Ronald Reagan. (Kidding.) (No offense, Tea Party friends.) Here\u2019s a good one: \u201cWe must reject the idea that every time a law's broken, society is guilty rather than the lawbreaker. It is time to restore the American precept that each individual is accountable for his actions.\u201d\nI\u2019m guessing he believed that cigarette smokers, as one example, fell into that \u201cindividual accountability\u201d category. But what if the law breakers are the people who are supposed to be enforcing the law? Should they be accountable? Which brings us to last night\u2019s 60 Minutes, and a couple other hot topics.\nThe show last night was about the exoneration of Michael Morton, wrongly convicted of murdering his wife in 1987. He was freed after 25 years in prison based on DNA evidence, thanks to the hard work of the Innocence Project.\nBut, reports 60 Minutes, Morton\u2019s attorneys, \u201crecently discovered something astonishing: sitting in his prosecutor's file all those years was evidence that could have established Morton's innocence during his trial.\u201d That evidence was a police report, relating how Morton\u2019s then 3-year-old son, who witnessed the murder, described in detail the guy who really killed his mother, and it wasn\u2019t Michael Morton. The DA who apparently failed to turn the report over to Morton at the time, Ken Anderson, later \u201cwas named prosecutor of the year in Texas and since 2002 he's been a district judge in the same court where Michael Morton was convicted. All those years, Morton languished in prison.\u201d\nHere\u2019s some of the conversation between 60 Minutes correspondent Lara Logan and Barry Scheck of the Innocence Project, and Logan and Anderson\u2019s lawyer, Eric Nichols:\nLara Logan: So just to be clear, from both of you, you believe that Ken Anderson, the prosecutor in Michael's case, willfully, deliberately withheld evidence.\nBarry Scheck: We believe that there's probable cause to believe that he violated a court order, withheld exculpatory evidence, and violated other laws of the State of Texas.\nIn February, a Texas judge agreed with Michael Morton's legal team that there was probable cause to believe Ken Anderson violated the law, and Anderson is now the subject of a special criminal inquiry. That's extremely rare. Studies have shown prosecutors are hardly ever criminally charged or disciplined for serious error or misconduct. And one thing Ken Anderson doesn't have to worry about is being sued for damages by Michael Morton because the Supreme Court has ruled that prosecutors have \"absolute immunity\" from civil lawsuits for their legal work.\nLara Logan: Doctors, lawyers, policemen, there are all kinds of people who do their job with limited immunity or no immunity. It just seems hard to understand why prosecutors have to have a different standard to everybody else.\nEric Nichols: Seeing that justice is done, in many instances, requires very difficult judgments. And to come back behind those prosecutors and second guess them, or sue them would throw a wrench into that system of prosecutors seeking justice.\nLara Logan: I have to say, there's a certain irony in hearing you say it's the job of a prosecutor to seek justice, right? Because in this particular case, that's exactly what Michael Morton did not get. \u2026\nMichael Morton: I don't have a lotta things really driving me. But one of the things is, I don't want this to happen to anybody else. Revenge isn't the issue here. Revenge, I know, doesn't work. But accountability works. It's what balances out. It's the equilibrium. It's the social glue in a way. Because if you're not count-- accountable, then you can do anything.\nPay attention, corporate and medical lobbies pushing for laws to limit their liability for wrongdoing, so-called \"tort reform.\" He's talking about you. As Logan notes, accountability doesn\u2019t just mean criminal accountability but also, civil liability - something we touched on last week in our post about how the civil justice system can sometimes step in where the criminal justice fails. That is, except if the destructive, corporate-backed, right-wing American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) (which we\u2019ve covered many times, like here, here, here) has anything to do with it.\nPaul Krugman's column in today\u2019s New York Times, called \"Lobbyists Guns and Money,\" hits it out of the park with a great piece about how ALEC is responsible for the spread of Stand Your Ground laws (among many other horrendous laws), which many believe not only contributed to the killing of Trayvon Martin but also, the failure by police to arrest his killer. Writes Krugman:\nFlorida\u2019s now-infamous Stand Your Ground law, which lets you shoot someone you consider threatening without facing arrest, let alone prosecution, sounds crazy \u2014 and it is. And it\u2019s tempting to dismiss this law as the work of ignorant yahoos. But similar laws have been pushed across the nation, not by ignorant yahoos but by big corporations.\nSpecifically, language virtually identical to Florida\u2019s law is featured in a template supplied to legislators in other states by the American Legislative Exchange Council, a corporate-backed organization that has managed to keep a low profile even as it exerts vast influence (only recently, thanks to yeoman work by the Center for Media and Democracy, has a clear picture of ALEC\u2019s activities emerged). And if there is any silver lining to Trayvon Martin\u2019s killing, it is that it might finally place a spotlight on what ALEC is doing to our society \u2014 and our democracy. \u2026\nBut where does the encouragement of vigilante (in)justice fit into this picture? In part it\u2019s the same old story \u2014 the long-standing exploitation of public fears, especially those associated with racial tension, to promote a pro-corporate, pro-wealthy agenda. It\u2019s neither an accident nor a surprise that the National Rifle Association and ALEC have been close allies all along.\nThere\u2019s a lot more in Krugman\u2019s piece about the corrupting influence of corporate money behind ALEC\u2019s work. So where does civil liability fit into this picture? Well, forget prosecutor immunity laws. These Stand Your Ground laws turn everyday people into prosecutor, judge, jury, and executioner, and then immunize them not just from criminal prosecution but also civil liability. Just like dirty prosecutors in Texas are protected. Just like the corporate members of ALEC are protected from civil liability when they commit wrongdoing, thanks to laws written and pushed by ALEC's civil justice task force, chaired by our friend Victor Schwartz, the General Counsel of the American Tort Reform Association. Here\u2019s Victor, below. As they say, everything\u2019s connected.\nPosted by Joe Consumer at 12:07 PM in ALEC, ATRA, Civil Rights, Crime, Front Groups, Reagan, Tobacco | Permalink",

        "raw_content": "Will basketball find success in 2015 playoffs?\nBy Cale Ahearn and Dave Barth\nThe excitement of the 2015 Division II college basketball playoffs is upon us.\nThis year, both the men and women\u2019s teams have a shot at grabbing a playoff spot with four games left to play in the regular season.\nThe women\u2019s team sits at 16-9 on the season, and holds third place in the PSAC East with a 12-7 record. Only Bloomsburg (19-3, 16-2 PSAC East) and West Chester (19-4, 15-4 PSAC East) lead the Lady Raiders.\nThe men\u2019s team sits at 12-11 with an 8-10 conference record, good for fifth. In DII basketball, only the top four squads in the division move on to the playoffs. The team the Raiders must beat is Millersville, who leads them by one game with a 9-11 division record.\nCan both teams make the playoffs? If they do, will they have a shot at a state title?\nYour sports editors have run the numbers, and have some expert insight into how far each team will go in regards to the playoffs in 2015. Cale will talk about the women\u2019s team and Dave will discuss the men, giving you an in-depth analysis of each team\u2019s potential.\nThe men\u2019s team this year has got to be one of the most improved basketball squads of all time. If there were a title for \u201cComeback Team of the Year\u201d they would have earned it.\nThis is a lineup that finished the 2013-14 season with a 3-23 record. They posted an atrocious -10.7 scoring margin, giving up 278 more points than they scored, and by the end of the year the team\u2019s best player by 155 total points, Joe Lococo, had transferred to a different school.\nQuite frankly, head coach Chris Fite must have been concerned with his chances at putting together a contending squad in 2014-15, his second year at Shippensburg University.\nLess than a year later we are talking about the Raiders making the playoffs.\nI actually think they have a shot, but it looks like it is all going to come down to one game.\nSU plays three teams in the PSAC East to close out the season, and this week was the team\u2019s hardest test. The team took on Kutztown (16-10, 13-7 PSAC East) this Saturday, and the No. 3 in the division, and lost 67-51.\nHowever, they still have a shot. Shippensburg needs to put its money where its mouth is this Wednesday when the squad travels to Millersville to play for a postseason berth. Millersville lost on Saturday as well, to 8-15 Lock Haven, so SU is definitely still in the mix. If the Raiders beat MU, they almost certainly will make the playoffs; the teams will have each won a game, so the fact that SU beat East Stroudsburg, the No. 1 in the division, earlier in the year means that the Raider squad would make the playoffs in the case of a tie.\nThis has truly been a coming of age season for the Red Raiders, as the players have really stepped up and grown into their roles throughout the season. Despite having holes to fill after some key senior players graduated, the team enters Tuesday with a 16-9 record, going 12-7 in PSAC play.\nAfter struggling to find consistency to begin the season, the Red Raiders found themselves with a 7-7 record going in the beginning of January. However, the team was able to find their footing at just the right time and put together a 6 game winning streak, with all the victories coming against PSAC opponents.\nSince the streak, the team has gone 3-2, and has three games left to play in the regular season. Yet, no matter the outcome of their final games, the Red Raiders have already clinched the No. 3 seed in the PSAC Championship Tournament. This puts them in great position for the playoffs, where they will have a chance to prove themselves and succeed. The team is deep and talented, and should have a chance to make a deep run in the tournament.\nSU has rode its starting five to its postseason play berth, but has had standout performances from its bench players as well. Sophomore Morgan Griffith is averaging a double-double this season, scoring 11.8 points per game and bringing down 10.4 rebounds per game. The team\u2019s sophomore point guard, Lauren Gold, has run the team\u2019s offense all season, leading the team in minutes (765) and assists (107).\nFreshman guard Vicky Tumasz has been a solid reserve for the Red Raiders, coming off the bench in all but one game for the team, and still leads the team with 37 three-pointers made. Tumasz even led the team in scoring in an early season win against Dominican, pacing SU with 20 points.\nThe Red Raiders return to action on Wednesday when they travel to face Millersville. SU won the team\u2019s previous matchup this season, winning 67-55. The team will hope for the same performance in this game and the rest of their season, as they prepare for the playoffs.",

        "raw_content": "Ontario health system headed for \u2018crisis\u2019 with overcrowded hospitals\nEmergency department wait times hit record levels this summer, according to the umbrella organization representing Ontario hospitals, prompting it to warn that the health-care system is headed for a \u201ccrisis\u201d this winter unless the province takes quick action.\nWith weeks to go before flu season strikes, conditions strongly point to a capacity crunch this winter without further action, the Ontario Hospital Association said in a statement issued Monday.\nAnthony Dale, president of the Ontario Hospital Association. (Bernard Weil / Toronto Star file photo)\n\u201cMany hospitals have operated through the summer under very unusual and worrying surge conditions,\u201d OHA president Anthony Dale said. \u201cThe evidence strongly suggests that . . . further investments are urgently needed this fiscal year in order to ensure timely access to services for patients.\u201d\nThis past July, 10 per cent of patients waited longer than the provincial average of 30.4 hours to be placed in an inpatient bed from the emergency department, according to the association. This is the longest that patients have ever had to wait in the month of July since the province began measuring these waits nine years ago, the OHA said.\nHospital activity normally slows down in the summer, but over the last few months, many of the province\u2019s largest hospitals were more than 100 per cent full, the organization said.\nThe OHA\u2019s statement called for \u201crapid and aggressive new investment in hospital services, and services across the (health system), to avoid a possible capacity crisis within Ontario\u2019s health-care system this winter.\u201d\nThe organization is hoping that the provincial government will include extra funding for hospitals in the fall economic statement, as it did last year.\nHealth Minister Eric Hoskins said that while he is aware there is always more work to be done, health care is a top priority for his government. That\u2019s why the province hiked operating funding for hospitals by 3.1 per cent this year, for an increase of $518 million, he said.\nHoskins also pointed out that his government is spending more than $20 billion on hospital infrastructure over the next decade.\nThe OHA is worried about a repeat of last winter, which saw many hospitals create \u201cunconventional spaces\u201d for patients because they were so full. Hospitals were forced to convert lounges, classrooms, offices and even storage rooms into patient rooms.\n\u201cThe root of today\u2019s capacity challenge is that far too many frail elderly patients can\u2019t get access to the care they really need outside of the hospital setting,\u201d Dale said, adding that the province has a good plan to reform the system but needs to pick up the pace.\nFrail seniors often find themselves stuck in hospital beds even though they no longer need acute care. There is not enough space for them in long-term care homes or they are not frail enough to require such care. At the same time, they are too frail to return home, even with home-care supports.\nThere is a big push on in Ontario for the creation of affordable, subsidized congregate living arrangements for seniors where they could get regular help from personal support workers and health-care professionals.\nNew Democratic Leader Andrea Horwath said the mandate of the upcoming public inquiry into the murder of long-term care home residents should be expanded to address such issues.\nThe inquiry will look into the circumstances surrounding eight murders to which nurse Elizabeth Wettlaufer pleaded guilty in June.\nHorwath called on the government to reverse decade of cuts to the health system.\n\u201cThe last Conservative government fired 6,000 nurses, eliminated 7,000 beds and shuttered dozens of hospitals. When the Liberals came to power, instead of reversing those cuts, they froze health care spending, slashed more front-line jobs, and continued to worsen the health-care crisis across the province,\u201d she said.",

There\u2019s no Brazilians in this race!\u2019\n\u201cBut it was just great to get out there and do myself proud.\n\u201cIt\u2019s my first Olympic Games and I\u2019m just excited to race.\n\u201cI\u2019ve become an Olympian now and that is a good thing to have.\n\u201cHopefully I put a good show on.\u201d\nPeaty admits he sought advice on what to expect of the Games atmosphere from his coach Mel Marshall, a two-time Olympian, and double gold medal winner Rebecca Adlington.\nAnd he hopes his heat heroics will inspire kids back home that are glued to the action in Brazil.\nPeaty added: \u201cMel, my coach, she\u2019s an expert in this region.\n\u201cAnd I\u2019ve spoken to Becky quite a few times to see what the Olympics is like.\nPeaty reacts to breaking the world record as he dominated the heat\n\u201cBut nobody can describe what that is like until you\u2019ve been in there.\n\u201cI wasn\u2019t even that pumped before the race, but as soon as you walk in, it\u2019s fight or flight and I chose to get something out of it.\n\u201cYou can either be shy of the arena or take advantage of it.\n\u201cHopefully for kids looking at home and watching these Games, that\u2019s going to be their moment that I had four years ago, to switch on and put the hard work in for the next Olympics.\u201d\nAnother inspiring moment last night came from Yusra Mardini, who won her 100m butterfly heat for the Refugee Olympic Team.\nLast year, while attempting to flee war-torn Syria, Mardini was famously forced to swim three hours in the sea while pushing a boat full of refugees to safety.\nThe 18-year-old and her team-mates were given a hero\u2019s welcome when they were paraded at Friday night\u2019s opening ceremony.\nAnd less than 24 hours later she was winning in the Aquatics Stadium, albeit in a time which saw her ranked 41st out of 45.\nThe Brit golden hope shows his joy at setting a new mark in one of the top events\nMardini beamed: \"The ceremony was really amazing and I really enjoyed it but I couldn't stay late because I had to race.\n\u201cThe only thing I ever wanted was to compete in the Olympics.\n\"It's an incredible feeling. Competing with all these great champions is exciting.\u201d\nA less heart-warming swimming tale, though, came with the reinstatement of two more shamed Russians.\nNatalia Lovtsova was yesterday added to the women\u2019s 100m butterfly startlist at the last minute after successfully appealing against a doping ban - but trailed last in her heat.\nYulia Efimova has also been allowed back in and she was hastily added to the startlists for Sunday's 100m breaststroke heats, as well as Wednesday\u2019s 200m.\nThe London 2012 bronze medallist, 24, was banned for 16 months in 2013 after an anabolic steroid was found in her system.\nShe was also given a provisional ban after testing positive for meldonium earlier this year.\nBut the Court of Arbitration for Sport has told the IOC that athletes cannot be banned from Rio on the basis they have been previously sanctioned.\nPeaty sits, watches and waits as he hears of his latest record-breaking\nPeat Condition\nAdam Peaty will visualise becoming first British male swimmer to win gold in 28 years\nShaking a splash\nOlympic hopeful was so scared of water he wouldn't even sit in the bath... now he's favourite for GOLD\nAre you athletically challenged?\nThese are the 10 British Olympians you need to watch out for in Rio\nSAMBA AND JAZZ\nTeam GB swimmers unveiled for Rio Games with Adam Peaty, James Guy and Jazz Carlin set to star\nOnly 55 Team GB athletes expected to march at the Games opening ceremony with medals more important",

        "raw_content": "This year Mega Bloks have returned to the world of Star Trek with a range of TOS construction sets, which include playsets of key locations, and models of ships. All but one of the sets in the first wave have already made their way into the world, and now that final set, the largest in the range, has joined them on Amazon, where it can be pre-ordered ahead of an expected July release.\nThe huge USS Enterprise set is made from 3,098 pieces, which build a model that is 85cm long. It also features light-up nacelle caps with built in LEDs, and two figurines, Kirk and Spock in dress uniform variants. To top it off, the display base features a miniature recreation of the ship's dedication plaque. Continue below to have a look at the many new images that show off the impressive model:\nETY3 said...\nI do wish that they could have used smooth plates on top of the saucer, but still ... looks good.\n@ETY3: EXACTLY!\nIt's a shame, as this is not marketed to kids who more likely than not don't give a damn about TOS, but adults instead.\nI can tell you 100% that I have zero interest in this, but actually would consider picking it up were there smooth plate bricks for the top and bottom of the primary hull, and I have to assume the majority of other adults feel the same.\nThis was show I felt about the Klingon D7 as well, but that design is harder to realize in this fashion without some knobby bits showing through (although, perhaps I'm being too conservative there).\nOn this TOS 1701, though, it was entirely possible to make the saucer smooth, and what's so stunning, is that they make that fact so obvious from the smoothness of the secondary hull and nacelles. I mean, you don't need comparisons; you can tell from the model shown that it didn't need to have the nubs show whatsoever. No amount of episode-specific backdrop images will help that.\nConsidering how bad this looks to those it's really marketed at, I have to assume this is due to some contractual obligation to not provide an accurate model for fear of stepping on other licensees (like Mattel, QMx or Eaglemoss). That would be the only defense here, but it's just not strong enough for me to consider a purchase...except those figures, of course. People do love those, and more than the MiniMates, too.\nMaybe when Lego picks up the license in years to come, we'll get the 1701 we all want...and expected.\nI did get it and, despite some frustrations, I love it.\nI made an unboxing and assembly video, too.",

Yet in a world where we are so heavily connected with one another through technology not enough people are talking about this. Everyone is so desperate to show off their highlight reel to the world even when the reality can be far from wonderful.\nAs someone in business, this can be a daily problem. The inner battle to show up every single day with enthusiasm and joy for your daily life in your business can be so bloody hard when you are actually facing relationship problems, sick children, cash flow problems, burn out and overwhelm. These are just a few of the struggles that I have experienced and I know others have as well.\nThe fact that we still carry on despite these struggles and challenges shows the incredible resilience and strength needed to be someone in business. So why do we pretend otherwise? It's a vicious cycle of everyone pretending and making other people who are potentially sharing the same experience as them feel like shit.\nWhen the reality could be that we are more open about these struggles with one another and therefore forming deeper connections and a more supportive network where everyone can thrive and feel that the reality of their journey is valued.\nOne of the biggest examples of this is what the wedding industry has looked like this year. So many people (myself included) has seen a drop in bookings and a massive change in the booking patterns of clients. This has caused uncertainty for so many people who are reliant on the income from their wedding business. Families to support, bills to pay... It's hard enough not having a guaranteed salary but mix that with a sudden drop off and suddenly you can find yourself in a very lonely and scary place. All the while social media is showing you how well everyone else is doing.\nSo you immediately go to a place of 'well there must be something wrong with me'\nThat was where I was for all of the Winter. All the while helping to care for my dying Grandad and trying to show up in my marketing regularly with a false positivity about me while inside my heart was breaking and I couldn't understand where my usual level of success had gone.\nPanic was setting in. Lonely, self-critical panic.\nThen I reached out and I shared with others in my industry what was going on, maybe they could help or even just be supportive. I am fortunate that I have learned many a time how much people actually want to support you when you are open about your struggles. The response was unexpected, I had been conditioned through my newsfeed that it was only me that was going through this when the reality was that the people I spoke to were sharing the same experience with me. Immediately the inner-critic dissolved, there was nothing wrong with me.\nAdditionally, the response of my peers was also that they thought I was doing brilliantly because of my pretence, I had added to the problem going along with the never-ending pressure to make everything look brilliant all of the time. This is especially true in the wedding industry, we are the people who make one of the happiest days of people's lives possible, there is no room for negativity.\nThe validation that I wasn't alone suddenly gave me choices. I realised that my struggle was not as bad others, I was going to survive. The simple act of reaching out and being honest freed my mind and opened up my ability to stop having short-term reactions and start thinking long-term again.\nThat's what happens to us when we are in a state of distress, we go into a state of survival and literally cannot make anything but short-term reaction based decisions to the environment that's causing our state of anxiety. Reaching out to others who can understand and realising you are in a shared experience can immediately alleviate this state.\nIn my mind, I have turned it around and I now have a plan. In the process, I have also helped others which has helped with my sense of value and confidence. I also realised I needed an additional income, one that could give me some stability for when the over-saturated wedding market decided to take a drop so we saw the creation of The Woman & The Wolf. I have gained new marketing skills through realising that I needed to make a change if I still wanted my wedding photography to be there in the future as the industry goes through this shift.\nMy struggle is a part of my journey, it's what makes me strong, it's what makes me better.\nSo let's start to see it as something of value. To stop reacting to our struggles as something that makes us less of a success but more of a success because despite the challenges we face we still carry on and believe in ourselves.\nThe struggles will always be there at every level as we move through our journey so embracing them and sharing them is of the utmost importance for your mental health and also for the business community.\nThis week I am going to be really focusing on this subject as I really do believe it's important. I am going to be going live on my Facebook Page about it and I will be doing further blog posts on how to deal with struggle and turn it around.\nIf you need help or are feeling alone please reach out, I am always happy to listen and support.\nI am looking for 1 more person to come on a little adventure with me. Helping people is something I love and over the years in business and life I have developed a lot of skills and knowledge that I know can help others both through the struggles of business and in breaking patterns that cause us damage.\nWhy would you like to work with me? *\nLet me know a good time to call you.",

This trend of British bands dominating the American music scene continued for several years. The music from the era is still in great demand today. The British Invasion band plays the same music, which once caused quite a stir among the music lovers, nostalgic to relive the sixties. With British Invasion - Band tickets in hand, you, too, can now relive the groovy 60s all over again.\nThe British Invasion band faithfully reproduces the exact music, sounding almost like the original British bands of the 60s.

They cover the music from almost all of the famous bands of that time, from \"The Zombies\" to \"The Animals\" and from the \"Herman's Hermits\" to \"The Hollies\". The band takes its fans on a splendid musical tour which entertains each and every one of them.\nOne tends to wonder what is so special about the band's music. For starters, the British Invasion doesn't only reproduce the music; they also replicate the exact clothing and the hairstyles of the original artists. The equipment they carry consists of vintage guitars and old fashioned drum kits. During performances, the band members go through multiple costume changes, each representing a different era and different musicians. The British Invasion has even created a spectacular replica of The Beatle's Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.\nThe British Invasion with their tribute to the sixties British Rock, have performed in front of enthusiastic fans in places all over the United States and to cheering fans in England as well. The land where the British Invasion originated, welcomed the Band with positive reviews, after their performances in Liverpool and London.

        "raw_content": "Book Report: \u201cYou Gotta Get In The Game\u201d by Billy Cox\nHome/Blog News, Job Search and Career, Sales Success/Book Report: \u201cYou Gotta Get In The Game\u201d by Billy Cox\nThe past year has been almost overwhelming in regards to the amount of change that has occurred. Not only has the economic landscape changed but there has also been a huge shift in the way business/sales are being conducted. At this point, I am sure that the majority of sales professionals have heard of Sales 2.0 and the changes it is bringing to sales models and sales processes. It seems to me that most companies and their employees know they need to do something but they struggle with what they need to do to change.\nIn the book \"You Gotta Get In The Game,\" Billy Cox challenges you to think about playing the game, not watching it. He mentions that if you only watch from the sidelines you're allowing your peers, your competition and your industry to pass you by. As sales professionals, we are all playing in a new league and the game, as we know it, has changed. There are now new techniques in how to prospect, new techniques in how to move a sale and more importantly, new techniques in how to close a deal. At this point in time, you seriously need take a look at what you have changed in your current process and what techniques you have learned.\nThis book gives great recommendations on simple techniques that you can start applying today in your daily task and actions items. The chapter that had the biggest impact on me was \"Raise the Bar\". This chapter is short and very simple: give more today than you did yesterday. If you apply this one very simple rule you will continue to close more business, influence more people and continue to improve yourself personally and professionally.\nIn the book, Cox refers to the story of Roger Bannister, the first man to run a mile under 4 minutes. Roger was told by doctors that it was humanly impossible to run that fast and there was a grave possibility of his heart exploding. Despite the warnings, Roger refused to let fear or medical recommendation stop him. As an untrained runner, Roger disciplined himself by setting aside only 45 minutes per day to try to beat his old record. Sometimes he only beat his record by milliseconds but he continued to push himself more and more every day. This is what Cox is challenging all of us to do: continue to push yourself.\nCox also talks about in-depth about discipline. Typically when I hear the word \"discipline\" I think about a child being punished for not cleaning his/her room. That is negative discipline. Cox challenges you to strive for positive discipline. If you are focused and discipline yourself on a daily basis you can \"Raise The Bar\" for yourself. The best quote to demonstrate this point is, \"You will always be disciplined \u2013 you can either choose to discipline yourself or life will do it for you.\"\nAll and all this is a simple read with a couple of quick stories to help us \"Get In The Game\".",

        "title": "The Truth About Sales",
        "raw_content": "Fact Or Fiction: The Truth About Sales\nHome/Blog News/Job Search and Career/Fact Or Fiction: The Truth About Sales\nMany recent college graduates possess the intangibles to be successful in sales, but do not fully understand what a career in sales entails. Since there are not many specific sales-related courses to educate students on what the industry is, students rely on myths and stereotypes when considering potential sales opportunities.\nLike a majority of my peers, I graduated this past May and did not know what I wanted to do in terms of launching a career. And even though people had mentioned to me that I had an aptitude to work in the sales capacity, I never really considered it. I knew I enjoyed working with people and had a strong interest in technology. I knew that I enjoyed building relationships and thrived in competition, but still didn\u2019t see sales as a match.\nLike many others, when I thought about sales and salespeople, the stereotypical image came to mind. I initially thought about door-to-door salesperson and selling products that I had no passion for. The thought of \u201cpushing\u201d unwanted or unneeded services in an aggressive manner was not appealing. And on top of that, commission-based pay and constantly dealing with obstacles and objections was daunting. The idea of being that dreaded telemarketer that we have all come to dislike clouded my perception of what a career in sales really has to offer.\nAfter working in sales for the past few months, I have discovered the truth about sales. The truth is that a career in sales is not simple. It is not your standard 9am-5pm where you punch your time card and do the bare minimum to get by. It requires hard work, sometimes long hours and a competitive mindset. The truth is sales is both a personally and financially rewarding career. Your success is directly measured by the work you put in, so you essentially can determine your own salary. Also, contrary to popular belief, most sales jobs have a relatively high base salary and excellent commission plans. Sales is being able to prospect potential clients, build relationships, educate your audience and add value to your customers. Sales is really about building relationships and genuinely helping people.\nSince starting my career in sales as a business development representative, I have found the commission-based model to be a great incentive. It enables me to empower myself and truly raise the bar. I am able to measure my success and see the fruits of my labor. I know what it takes to build a partnership, how many calls need to be made to land a new client and know how great it feels to close a deal. By fully immersing myself into the sales, I have been given the best hands-on education that a text book alone could not teach. I have been able to improve my leadership, communication, and interpersonal skills. It has helped me develop a strong work ethic, allowing me to work in both a team environment while simultaneously giving me independence and the ability to take ownership of my work. It has become a great environment to grow and develop, allowing my competitive drive to prove advantageous. I am never bored at work, and no one day is the same as the previous. It is a career that offers internal growth and promotion where there is no dead end.\nSo my advice for recent graduates and anyone who is considering a career in sales, is to not let myths and stereotypes cloud your judgment. A career in sales is nothing to fear and you could already posses the intangibles to become great, so Just do it! It has been one of the best decisions that I have ever made.",

Next time you are in need of furnace repair from your heater service, take a minute to consider whether or not upgrading is the right choice. In the meantime, read on for tips on deciding if you should replace or repair your furnace.\nThere are many different factors to consider when it comes to deciding between replacing or repairing your furnace. If your furnace or heating system just broke down for the first time and is under 10 years old, chances are you should seek repairs. However, an older model that has a habit of breaking down may continue to drop in efficiency and cost you in the future. If you can comfortably afford to replace your furnace, you will enjoy its efficiency right from the beginning. Not only are newer HVAC appliances able to save you money on your energy bills over its entire lifespan, but they also do an outstanding job of cooling and heating to a sufficient degree.",

        "raw_content": "SSA Employee Convicted of Bribery In Connection to Benefit Scheme\nAccording to WJLA-TV, a former Social Security Administration (SSA) worker pleaded guilty last week to soliciting more than $50,000 in bribes from recipients in return for providing them with extra, unauthorized benefits.\nThe news outlet reported that Christopher Payton, 46, of Mount Rainier, Maryland pleaded guilty in D.C. District Court to one count of bribery.\nPayton reportedly worked at the SSA\u2019s Anacostia Office in Southeast Washington. He was in charge of conducting interviews regarding eligibility for benefits, authorizing or disallowing entitlement and reviewing and authorizing Supplemental Security Income (SSI), according to WJLA.\nBetween January and May 2013, Payton reportedly met with 13 people and told them that if they gave him tips, he would \u201ctake care of them.\u201d Once the tips were paid, he reportedly used his access with the agency to cause Supplemental Security Income benefits to go into the individuals\u2019 bank accounts.\n\u201cThese retroactive payments were not properly authorized, and Payton knew that the people receiving them were not entitled to the extra income,\u201d said Bill Miller, public information officer for the U.S. Attorney\u2019s Office in D.C., according to WJLA.\nAccording to court documents, Payton received $54,662 in cash payments from the individuals for his actions. After the individuals involved in the scheme received payments, they would reportedly give money to Payton.\nPayton is scheduled to be sentenced on July 16. He faces 30 to 37 months in prison and a fine of up to $60,000.\nHow Do I Know If I Qualify for Social Security Benefits?\nCases like this give a black eye to SSA employees and beneficiaries. Most people who receive SSI or Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) benefits live modestly, with many living below the poverty line. Anyone who takes advantage of the system should be punished to the fullest extent of the law.\nMany people who struggle because of disabilities and are unable to work are eligible to receive Social Security benefits. In order to obtain benefits, a person may be required to schedule a consultative examination with a doctor.\nAs this case shows, you should not take chances if you want to apply for disability benefits or are in the process of appealing a claim. Many people are na\u00efve or under the impression that they cannot receive benefits, or that their claims will be denied. This is why representation is important. We offer free consultations; you may reach us by phone at (918) 587-0050.\nSource: http://www.wjla.com/articles/2014/04/social-security-worker-pleads-guilty-to-accepting-bribes-in-exchange-for-more-benefits-102613.html\n\u2190 Do You Have Asthma?

        "raw_content": "The company Alvis from Coventry was well known as a manufacturer of prestigious cars and as one of the world's largest manufacturers of military equipment. However, the first area of \u200b\u200bactivity is a thing of the past. Having started in 1914 with the manufacture of aluminum pistons, in 1920 the company began to create sports cars and produced it until 1967. During this time it was in critical situations for several times, therefore, on the eve of the World War II, Alvis decided to take up completely new and prospective business - the creation of military vehicles. The reason for making such a bold decision was the proposal of the Hungarian designer Nicolas Straussler to participate in the competition for light armored reconnaissance, organized by the British Defense Ministry. According to his project in 1938-39, was built half a dozen small armored vehicles. But the contest was won by Daimler company. This news wasn`t discouraged Alvis, but rather served as a stimulus to create a new range of wheeled military vehicles.\nIn the early 70's company Alvis almost completely switched over to manufacture tracked combat and transport vehicles, and then tanks. The company made the modernization of armored vehicles Ferret licensed by British company Daimler, and only own development in the early 80's became the armored vehicle Ferret-80 (4x4). Spent to create it huge amount of money, Alvis had not received orders for these machines and therefore continue to prefer to use other company's developments.\nDuring its long history the company Alvis was a member of the company Rover, and automobile concern British Leyland, and then, in 1981, it was acquired by the military-industrial holding company United Scientific, created on its basis in 1993 mini-concern for the production of tracked and wheeled fighting vehicles. Expansion of its program again occurred due to the absorption of other firms. Heavy military trucks appeared in 1994 with the merger of British company Unipower, and three years in subordinate Alvis was also a Swedish company Hagglunds, manufactured articulated tracked personnel carriers. In 1998 with the acquisition of British company GKN Defense of Tilford the production of all wheeled armored vehicles was transferred there.\n30 September 2002 Alvis completed the accession of British military concern Vickers Defence Systems, including its South African branch Vickers OMC. Since that time, all the military machines of the new group Alvis Vickers Ltd. received a brand Alvis Vickers. In September 2004 the British and South African factories Alvis were bought out by British Aerospace, BAE, turning them into its own branch of ground weapons. In 2005 Alvis brand was canceled. For all of the time of manufacture Alvis produced about 15 thousand of wheeled military vehicles, which are in service with 60 countries.\nFV-651 / FV-652 Salamander\nSalamander Friction Test Vehicle",

        "raw_content": "Low Income, Social Growth, and Good Health A History of Twelve Countries\nby James C. Riley (Author)\nThis book studies the experience of twelve countries that have broken through the limits that low incomes so often impose on human survival: China, Costa Rica, Cuba, Jamaica, Japan, Korea, Mexico, Oman, Panama, the former Soviet Union, Sri Lanka, and Venezuela. Most made impressive gains in life expectancy in the decades after 1920, and by 1960 nearly matched the rich countries in survival. James C. Riley finds that all of these countries enjoyed significant social growth, all invested in public health, and all gained the people's participation in the effort to improve their own lives and health. This innovative analysis suggests an alternative model of growth in which the measure of a nation's success is not its per capita income but the life expectancy of its population.\nJames C. Riley is Professor of History at Indiana University. He is the author of Poverty and Life Expectancy: The Jamaica Paradox (2005) and Rising Life Expectancy: A Global History (2001).\n\u201cWell written and carefully laid out, this book is accessible to a wide audience.\u201d \u2014Choice\n\u201cAn important book. . . .

It is a guide to the national achievement of better health and greater longevity. Hopefully, this book will help change the world.\"\u2014John C. Caldwell, Emeritus Professor of Demography, Australian National University, Canberra\n\"James Riley's Low Income, Social Growth, and Good Health represents another major contribution to the understanding of the world-wide mortality transition of the past two centuries.

        "raw_content": "4 Benefits Of Living In Apartments In Newnan GA\nMany people think that the ultimate goal is home ownership. What these people don\u2019t know are all of the benefits that go along with living in Apartments in Newnan GA. Before a person spends their entire life savings on buying a home, they should consider the benefits of apartment living.\nIf a person is going to buy a home, they should understand how expensive it will be. Not only will the individual need money for the down payment, but they will also need to pay for the closing costs and the home insurance premium. When they move into an apartment, they would just need to pay the first months rent and a security deposit which is often equal to the cost of the monthly rent.\nThe Individual Won\u2019t Be Responsible For Broken Appliances\nIf a person owns their own home and suddenly their water heater breaks down or their refrigerator stops working, they would need to pay to replace the unit. If they are living in an apartment and something stops working, it would be the landlord\u2019s responsibility to replace the appliances.\nIf a person owns their own home, they would need to spend hours outdoors taking care of the lawn during the spring and summer or shoveling snow during the winter. If they don\u2019t want to do these things on their own, they would need to pay someone to do it. This can be costly. If the individual chooses to rent an apartment, all of the outdoor work would be the responsibility of the landlord.\nHomeowner\u2019s Insurance and Property Taxes\nSince a person\u2019s home is likely their most expensive asset, they need to protect it. This means having homeowner\u2019s insurance. When a person owns a home, they are going to need to pay property taxes every quarter. If they fall behind on their taxes, they could end up losing their home. When a person rents an apartment, it is a good idea to take out a renter\u2019s insurance policy, which is much less expensive than homeowner\u2019s insurance. Also, the renter won\u2019t be responsible for paying property taxes. Since the landlord owns the property, they would be responsible for paying the taxes.\nIf a person is trying to decide between owning their own home and renting an apartment, they should consider the benefits associated with living in Apartments in Newnan GA.

He is a practicing emergency medicine physician and the founder and director of JeffDESIGN, a first-of-its-kind program in a medical school that teaches future physicians to apply human-centered design to healthcare challenges.

        "title": "unixlegion: Avegant Light Field Puts Augmented Reality in the Palm of Your Hand",
        "raw_content": "Avegant Light Field Puts Augmented Reality in the Palm of Your Hand\nThe imaging technology startup Avegant says its light field prototype provides a truly immersive experience that is critical for the future success of the entire mixed reality industry.\nThe ultimate goal of AI is to pass what's known as the Turing test - to build a machine whose intelligence is indistinguishable from a human's. The emerging field of augmented reality (AR) is striving to pass its own \"visual Turing test,\" in which virtual objects interact so seamlessly with their real-world surroundings that it's virtually impossible to distinguish what's digital from what's real.\nThe imaging technology startup Avegant says it has achieved a truly realistic and immersive AR experience with its newly introduced \"light field\" head-mounted display. The company's prototype headset appears to overcome one of the critical limitations of current AR devices like Microsoft's HoloLens - the inability to interact with objects at close range.\nJournalist and tech industry analyst Ross Rubin was recently given a private demo of the Avegant Light Field prototype and compared it to the immersive experience promised by Magic Leap, a secretive AR startup that's received nearly $1.4 billion in funding from Google and Alibaba.\n\"One of [Magic Leap's] first signature images was of an elephant being cupped by a hand. That's what I experienced in the Avegant demo, to be able to hold a planet in my hands,\" Rubin told Seeker. \"It's the difference between seeing animated objects out of your reach and being able to actually walk up to things, put your hands around them and navigate within the mixed reality space.\"\nAvegant's light field headset works by mimicking the way that real-world objects emit light. In the real world, light enters the eye as a collection of rays, which are focused for the brain. Objects that are different distances from the eye emit different \"light fields,\" requiring the eye to constantly adjust like the autofocus setting on a camera. In humans, our combination of binocular vision and the ability to switch between different focal planes gives real-world objects their depth and distance.\nTo display virtual objects with the same realistic sense of depth, Avegant needed to give each digital object its own light field. Instead of presenting the viewer with a flat projection of virtual objects at a set distance, each object now exists on its own focal plane. When the user turns his attention from object to object, his eyes refocus to accommodate the object's specific light field, including objects very close at hand.\nAccording to Avegant CTO Edward Tang, this represents a critical technological leap from current AR or MR (mixed reality) headsets, including the $3,000 HoloLens.\n\"Mixed reality displays in the market today are fixed single focal plane displays which limit the area where images can be displayed and is particularly challenging in the near field distance, where most interactions occur in MR,\" Tang said in an email.\nJeremy Bailenson, founding director of the Stanford University Virtual Human Interaction Lab, was deeply impressed by his test of the Avegant Light Field prototype.\n\"It's not often you witness a technology that could disrupt an entire industry,\" Bailenson was quoted as saying in an Avegant press release. \"Avegant Light Field is that kind of a breakthrough. I had long heard about the possibility of seeing close fields and far fields in the same scene, but experiencing it firsthand was believing. This is how the visual system was designed to work.\"\nAs Avegant works to turn its prototype headset into a viable commercial device over the next 12 to 18 months, there are still a lot of questions about how its patented light field technology actually works.\nGordon Wetzstein, director of the Stanford Computational Imaging Group, explained that there are several leading methods for producing the kind of light field effects advertised by Avegant, each with its own set of tradeoffs. In a recent paper, Wetzstein's group demonstrated the benefits of one such method, using a \"focus-tunable\" liquid crystal display that constantly refocuses on where the user is looking.\n\"It's a very practical approach that can be implemented right now, and we're working with a couple of consumer electronics companies to do that,\" Wetzstein told Seeker. \"The tradeoff there is that you need eye tracking, and you need a few other technological components. All of them are already there, but you'd have to put them together in one headset.\"\nAccording to a patent application by Avegant, this appears to be exactly what the company is doing, using some sort of eye tracking to follow the user's gaze and automatically adjust the focus with a tunable display. But when tech writer Karl Guttag asked Avegant about the patent, the company said it was not using that method and that the prototype had \"no moving parts\" or any kind of eye tracking.\nHow exactly the Avegant device works may be less important than whether or not anyone will buy it when it's available. The company's first device, a head-mounted cinema/headphone display called the Glyph, was launched from a Kickstarter campaign and has posted modest sales. In a video for the new light field display, Tang made the case that his company's tech is critical for the future of the AR space.\n\"The success of the entire mixed reality industry hinges upon having light field technologies,\" said Tang. \"Light field is the missing link to having truly realistic and interactive mixed reality experiences.\"\nGuttag expressed doubts that the augmented reality or mixed reality market would take off in the next five years, \"with or without Avegant's technology.\" And Wetzstein at Stanford said that the focal issues addressed by Avegant are only one of a set of engineering and design challenges that need to be solved before AR displays have a chance of passing the visual Turing test.\nA big challenge, explained Wetzstein, is the issue of \"occlusion.\" Since AR overlays digital characters on real-world environments, the characters must interact with real objects in visually realistic ways. Wetzstein imagines a version of Super Mario Bros. that you can play on your desk.\n\"If Mario runs behind a physical object, you have to make sure that the physical object occludes [blocks the view of] Super Mario. Otherwise it doesn't create this consistency in the world,\" said Wetzstein, adding that the same is true for focal cues. \"Your eyes will continually focus on either the digital content or the physical object. If those aren't consistent with one another, it doesn't provide a realistic experience.\"\nAnd then there's the issue of form factor. The Avegant prototype had to be wired to a PC, greatly restricting freedom of movement. The final commercial device may be untethered, like the HoloLens, but all current VR and AR headsets still suffer from the same bulky and decidedly geeky form factor, which remains another barrier to consumer adoption.\nApple CEO Tim Cook has hinted that the design gurus behind the iPhone and iPad may be coming out with an AR device in the near future. And Magic Leap is still working on its own light field device which may very well prove a game-changer.\nUntil then, people hankering for an AR fix may have to settle for Pok\u00e9mon Go.\nWATCH: The Augmented Reality Revolution",

        "raw_content": "By Artemis Psaltoglou on 16 October 2018 . Posted in Intelligent / Smart Cities Solutions\nMore than 220 papers are reviewed to provide insights about waste management in smart cities.\nThe current status of IoT-enabled waste management practices is reviewed.\nA conceptual framework is offered for monitoring of product lifecycle data.\nThe need to connect waste management to the whole product lifecycle is discussed.\nThe importance of new business models on improving waste recovery is highlighted.\nThe potential of smart cities in remediating environmental problems in general and waste management, in particular, is an important question that needs to be investigated in academic research. Built on an integrative review of the literature, this study offers insights into the potential of smart cities and connected communities in facilitating waste management efforts.\nShortcomings of existing waste management practices are highlighted and a conceptual framework for a centralized waste management system is proposed, where three interconnected elements are discussed:\nan infrastructure for proper collection of product lifecycle data to facilitate full visibility throughout the entire lifespan of a product,\na set of new business models relied on product lifecycle data to prevent waste generation, and\nan intelligent sensor-based infrastructure for proper upstream waste separation and on-time collection.\nThe elements of the proposed framework for waste management in smart and connected communities.\nThe proposed framework highlights the value of product life cycle data in reducing waste and enhancing waste recovery and the need for connecting waste management practices to the whole product life-cycle. An example of the use of tracking and data sharing technologies for investigating the waste management issues has been discussed. Finally, the success factors for implementing the proposed framework and some thoughts on future research directions have been discussed.\nTags: business models, circular economy, Internet of Things, product lifecycle, Smart cities, sustainable cities, waste management",

Here are 10 high-paying freelance jobs. Check out this story on USATODAY.com: https://usat.ly/2OZlvPJ\n10 highest-paying gig economy jobs: How to become a six-figure-earning freelancer\nJenny Knizner, Moonlighting Published 8:17 a.m. ET Oct. 1, 2018 | Updated 12:34 p.m. ET Oct. 1, 2018\nHow to become a six-figure earning freelancer(Photo: Moonlighting)\nThe gig economy has been criticized for normalizing low-paying work, but really there\u2019s never been a better time to be a highly skilled freelancer.\nFreelancers in the U.S. make an average of $31 an hour, which comes out to 17 percent more than the typical full-time employed worker. And the number of freelancers earning $100,000 or more has grown by about 70 percent, from 1.95 million in 2011 to 3.3 million in 2018, according to new research reported in a recent Forbes article.\nSo what is driving the growth of high-earning independent workers?\nAt Moonlighting, we are not only seeing people hire contractors for personal projects, but businesses are also shifting to using more freelancers in general. According to an SAP Fieldglass Study, 44 percent of talent spending at big corporations is now on \u201cexternal, non-employee talent.\u201d Small businesses are hiring more freelancers as well, with their expenditures on contractors rising 73 percent from 2011 to 2016, according to IRS data.\nAnother equally important factor is that these freelancers don\u2019t want traditional jobs. Instead, they are choosing the freelance life because of the high-compensation, work-life balance, and control they get from independent careers. And, as you might imagine, the vast majority of these high earners \u2014 97 percent \u2014 are either highly satisfied (88 percent) or satisfied (9 percent) working independently.\nIf this all sounds wonderfully appealing, you should know that the highest-paid skills, which earn up to six times what the average freelancer makes, are also the rarest. The more specialized you are, the more premium you're going to command ... so let\u2019s take a look at the top 10 highest-paying gig economy jobs of 2018.\nArtificial intelligence (deep learning) - These freelancers work with the technology that drives the ability of artificial intelligence technology to learn and adapt. They develop algorithms using tools and programming languages, such as Tensorflow, Python, R, Java, Matlab, Perl, C++, etc., and earn $115.06/hour.\nBlockchain architecture - Amongst other disruptive applications, blockchain is the underlying technology that powers cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum. Blockchain freelancers are well-versed in various programming languages including C++, Python, and Solidity, and earn $87.05/hour.\nRobotics - Typically, freelancers in this niche design mechanical elements, pieces, and mechanisms for robots. They also create 3D models and animations using computer-aided design (CAD). Often this work requires a background in mechanical engineering and proficiency in software such as SolidWorks Professional, Photoview 360, Simplify 3D, and eDrawings, and earn $77.46/hour.\nEthical hacking - These hackers try to hack a company\u2019s system in search of potential gaps in their security that malicious hackers might exploit. They are also skilled in fixing vulnerabilities, are often certified information systems security professionals or certified ethical hacker, and earn $66.33/hour.\nCryptocurrency - There\u2019s high demand for freelancers with bitcoin-related skills because demand for the altcoin continues to skyrocket in terms of monetary value with no signs of slowing down. Among the work they do is building automated tools for trading exchanges and developing market charts and earn $65.37/hour.\nAmazon web services Lambda coding - This is a technology, offered by Amazon, that lets users run code without servers. Typically these developers are proficient in Node.js, Python, Java, and C#. They write and load code onto Lambda and design triggers that lead to code being executed on the system and earn $51.00/hour.\nVirtual reality - These freelancers develop software apps that merge digital content such as visual and audio into a user\u2019s environment in real life. Pokemon Go is one of the most popular AR app examples in this space. This field requires expertise in developing augmented reality algorithms and fluency in C#, C, and C++. Backgrounds in 3D modeling and 3D scanning are also common and these developers earn $50.18/hour.\nReact JavaScript developers - These specialized developers work with React, an open-source JavaScript library used by front-end software developers. As freelancers, they develop web applications that can update data with no need to reload the page. Developers in this area are typically fluent in JavaScript, HTML5, and CSS and earn $40.75/hour.\nFinal cut pro editors (Apple video editing) - Freelance video editors who can work in Apple\u2019s professional-grade video editing software, Final Cut Pro X to make movies, advertisements and music videos earn $37.12/hour.\nInstagram marketing - Rounding out the top 10 is a job that does not require any development or programming skills. Instagram is growing and is attracting an increasing number of advertisers, so demand is high for people with the skills to promote a business on the social media platform. The work includes creating content, adding hashtags, engaging users to grow a following, and analyzing campaign results. Successful Instagram marketers earn $31.23/hour.\nWhile this list is programming and development heavy and won\u2019t appeal to every freelancer\u2019s unique skill set, keep in mind that for every new area of technology there will be freelancers needed in related fields.\nBlockchain architecture not your jam? That doesn\u2019t mean you can\u2019t take on the marketing and PR for new blockchain projects or offer your writing, legal, or accounting services to the same company. There will always be work for freelancers who stay on top off shifting trends and are willing to adapt and seize the right opportunities.\nAre you ready to start your own freelance business or try out a few side gigs to get the feel of freelancing?

        "raw_content": "Three Donald Trump Accusers Share Stories of Sexual Misconduct: \u2018He Kept Kissing Me\u2019\nMegyn Kelly TODAY Courtesy NBC\nAt least 16 women have accused President Donald Trump of sexual misconduct. Three of them shared their stories on NBC News\u2019 Megyn Kelly Today on Monday, December 11.\nFirst up was Samantha Holvey, who competed in the Miss USA pageant in 2006. She claims Trump would walk into dressing rooms and inspect each contestant.\n\u201cIt was heartbreaking last year. We\u2019re private citizens and for us to put ourselves out there to try and show America who this man is and how he views women, and for them to say \u2018eh, we don\u2019t care,\u2019 it hurt,\u201d said Holvey. But now with the #Metoo movement, which has created a public conversation about sexual harassment, Holvey is feeling more hopeful: \u201cIt\u2019s just like alright, let\u2019s try round two. The environment\u2019s different. Let\u2019s try again.\u201d\nHolvey was joined by Jessica Leeds, who alleges that Trump tried to put his hand up her skirt during a flight to New York in the 1970s, and Rachel Crooks, a Trump Tower receptionist. Crooks claims the the now-71-year-old politician kissed her on the mouth in 2005.\n\u201cHe shook my hand and gave me the normal double-cheek kiss, but then he held onto my had and he kept kissing me,\u201d Crooks told Kelly. \u201cHe kept . . . kissing me again and again . . . And then he kissed me on the lips. I was shocked. Devastated.\u201d Later, Trump asked Crooks for her phone number, and she gave it to him out of fear. \u201cI was so uncomfortable and a little threatened, like I didn\u2019t have a choice in agreeing to do that,\u201d she explained. \u201cYou feel like you have to say yes to these guys. You don\u2019t want to be the nasty girl, the mean girl, who doesn\u2019t comply and puts up a fight. I wish I had been stronger . . .Things would have been a lot different now.\u201d\nChanning Tatum, Laura Dern, Jane Fonda and More Speak Out Against Harvey Weinstein Amid Sexual Misconduct Scandal\nLeeds told Kelly that several years after the airplane incident, she saw Trump at an event and he referred to her as a \u201cc\u2013t.\u201d\nOn Sunday, Nikki R. Haley, the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, stated that anyone who has accused President Trump of sexual misconduct should be heard.\n\u201cWomen who accuse anyone should be heard,\u201d he said on Face the Nation. \u201cThey should be heard, and they should be dealt with. And I think we heard from them prior to the election. And I think any woman who has felt violated or felt mistreated in any way, they have every right to speak up.\u201d\nThe White House sent a statement to Megyn Kelly Today on Monday morning, which was read live on air: \u201cThese false claims, totally disputed in most cases by eyewitness accounts, were addressed at length during last year\u2019s campaign, and the American people voiced their judgement by delivering a decisive victory. The timing and absurdity of these false claims speaks volumes and the publicity tour that has begun only further confirms the political motives behind them.\u201d",

'Bubbles' is a stop-motion animated film about Michael Jackson's titular pet chimpanzee.\nThe streaming giant reportedly paid close to $20 million for the worldwide rights to the film.\n'Bubbles' is co-directed by Taika Waititi ('The Hunt for the Wilderpeople', 'Thor: Ragnarok') and Mark Gustafson ('The Fantastic Mr. Fox'), and was written by Isaac Adamson.\nAdamson's script was near the top of Hollywood's 2015 Black List, a list of unproduced scripts in Tinseltown that are the most-liked among film executives.\nNetflix bought the rights to 'Bubbles' at the Cannes Film Festival last week. However, its relationship with Cannes could prove fractious going forward.\nThat's because Cannes decided that from now on, only films released in cinemas will be eligible for awards at the festival, and Netflix only grants a small proportion of its original films a theatrical release.",

        "raw_content": "What I Learned From 11 Babies Being Born\nA new infant was born into my family, baby #11, and that means I have participated (in the periphery, as my wife did all the work) in 11 full-term pregnancies. Pregnancy can often cause multiple problems with the feet and may be overlooked as you evaluate the infants new feet. You can check the babies feet for ten toes, good form and lack of problems, but don't forget to remember the mother's feet can also be affected.\nPregnancy can lead to the following problems (or changes) with the feet:\n1. Swelling is very common during pregnancy and can be accompanied with painfree or painful varicose veins. Although the swelling resolves after pregnancy, the feet may never be the same and some of the associated vascular problems from varicose veins may be a long-term problem that needs to be followed.\n2. Foot size can change during pregnancy. Hormones are an important part of pregnancy and lead to loosening of the ligaments of the body. Since the foot is supported similarly by these ligaments, often the foot size will change usally as much as a full size. If you can't fit your shoes after pregnancy, this may be caused by the anatomic changes that occur from these hormones. Sorry but you shoe size has changed.\n3. Increased weight on the feet can also lead to new areas of pain or pressure. As you return to normal activities after pregnancy these pain may resolve, but additional care may be required to help you overcome swelling, injury or other causes of postpartum pain. Of the foot changes, these pains can be treated and usually completely resolved.\nOne thing you should know is that many people have survived pregnancy (including my wife 11 times) and you can get back to your normal activities without pain. If you have pain don't get discouraged, just get it treated and get back to enjoying your life (and back to that pre-pregnancy figure).",

As the name suggests, Chinese cabbage is thought to originate from China, and is a large part of Asian cuisine. There is a lot of hidden power and high nutrition contained within this vegetable, all of which we have aimed to harness.\nThe Chinese cabbage is closely related to the cabbages more commonly seen in the West. They grow in a much more cylindrical shape than our spherical varieties, and produce densely packed, long pale green leaves.\nFirst recordings of Chinese cabbage date back to the time of the Ming Dynasty, where the herbalist Li Shizhen studied it for its medical and health boosting qualities. It was first found growing in the Yangtze River delta region, but quickly spread throughout china to become a staple part of the Chinese diet. It was then introduced to Korea, where it is now used for making Kimchi, and then later to Japan in when it was brought back by Japanese soldiers returning from war. It has since spread throughout the world.",

        "raw_content": "Wealthiest GOP supporter in state of Ohio renounces Republican Party affiliation\nBy Suzanne GoldsmithGateHouse Media Ohio\nL Brands CEO Leslie H. Wexner told a small audience that he is fed up and has quit the Republican Party.\nCOLUMBUS, Ohio \u2014 After former Democratic President Barack Obama made a quiet stop in Columbus on Thursday night, the wealthiest Republican supporter in the state told a small audience at an event that he is fed up and has quit the Republican Party.\n\u201cI just decided I\u2019m no longer a Republican,\u201d said L Brands CEO Leslie H. Wexner, speaking during a panel discussion about civility at Miranova\u2019s Ivory Room billed as a \u201cColumbus Partnership and YPO Leadership Summit.\u201d\n\u201cI\u2019m an independent,\u201d he said. \u201cI won\u2019t support this nonsense in the Republican Party. I\u2019ve been a Republican since college, joined the Young Republican Club at Ohio State.\n\u201cI haven\u2019t run an ad in the newspaper that said, \u2018I quit,\u2019\u201d he told the gathering on Thursday. Instead, he\u2019s been writing notes to his friends in elected office who are Republicans, telling them, \u201cI want you to know that now I\u2019m an independent.\u201d\nThe event was jointly sponsored by the Columbus Partnership, a group of central Ohio\u2019s most influential business leaders that Wexner chairs, and YPO (formerly Young Presidents\u2019 Organization), a group of under-45 business leaders.\nObama stopped in Columbus before a rally in Cleveland on Thursday night to support Democrat Richard Cordray\u2019s run for governor.\nThe former president spoke on stage in Columbus with Alex Fischer, president and CEO of the Columbus Partnership, during a portion of the event that was closed to reporters.\nThe panel on which Wexner later spoke was moderated by political commentator David Gergen, a former adviser to presidents Richard Nixon, Gerald Ford, Ronald Reagan and Bill Clinton. Panelists also included Mayor Andrew J. Ginther and Nancy Kramer, chief evangelist at IBM iX. It was attended by approximately 140 people.\nWhen asked for her reaction to Wexner\u2019s statement after the event, Kramer, a member of the Partnership, referred back to Obama\u2019s comments. The former president urged listeners, she said, to focus on what they will do rather than who they are. Wexner, she said, was \u201cmaking a statement about his belief systems.\u201d\n\u201cHe\u2019s a man who\u2019s focused on what he wants to do rather than what he wants to be,\u201d she said. \u201cWe are so fortunate to have someone like Les care that deeply and lead with such conviction and generosity.\u201d\n\u201cI admire him for making that statement,\u201d said developer Brett Kaufman, a Partnership member. \u201cIt\u2019s not something he had to say, but he said it because he thought it mattered and that it would be important for other people to hear him say it publicly. I would imagine it was hard for him, being a member of the Republican Party for a long time, so it takes courage. I think it\u2019s reflective of the kind of leader that he\u2019s been in our community.\u201d\nWexner spoke warmly about Obama and about the theme of bipartisan civility, something he has been promoting in recent months.\n\u201cIt\u2019s a great moment for the community,\u201d he said of Obama\u2019s rather secretive visit to Columbus before his Cleveland rally for Cordray. \u201cI know he came here because of the Partnership and the things we have done, and the knowledge that civility is a priority for our community. He wanted to touch it and feel it for himself.\n\u201cI was struck by the genuineness of the man; his candor, humility and empathy for others,\u201d Wexner said of Obama.\nThose comments presented a stark contrast to Wexner\u2019s comments about Republican President Donald Trump. A little over a year ago, the billionaire CEO said in a speech to L Brands employees that he felt \u201cdirty\u201d and \u201cashamed\u201d following Trump\u2019s response to violence that erupted at the Unite the Right rally that left one dead in Charlottesville in 2017.\nTrump had said there were \u201cvery fine people\u201d among the white nationalist protesters at that rally. On Thursday, Wexner recalled that incident, which he said caused him to lose sleep. \u201c\u2018I have to do something because the leader of our country is behaving poorly,\u2019\u201d Wexner recalled thinking.\nDuring the past year, Wexner has poured money into bipartisan civility. In late 2017, he made a $300,000 donation to With Honor, a PAC that supports military veterans from both parties who are running for office and who agree to a pledge not only to conduct themselves with civility but also to meet one-on-one with a member of the opposing party once a month. In February, Abigail Wexner, a Democrat, followed up her husband\u2019s gift with a $2.5 million gift to With Honor.\nWexner\u2019s comments about his party affiliation followed a statement by former Columbus Mayor Michael B. Coleman, a Democrat who stood up in the audience and said he was \u201cconcerned by people who talk about civility, then don\u2019t speak up or stand up. Les Wexner spoke up, but in our political community, it\u2019s the silence of the lambs.\u201d\nWexner agreed. \u201cI just have to say something,\u201d he said. \u201cIf you don\u2019t think things are right, open your mouth.\u201d\nSuzanne Goldsmith is senior editor of the Columbus (Ohio) Monthly.",

The duo shared a whole bunch of photographs over the weekend in which they are seen hanging out inside of the empty museum. Let\u2019s take a look:\nHere they are with the Mona Lisa. It should be noted that, normally, humans are not allowed to get this close to the painting. (Beyonc\u00e9 and Jay Z are obviously not of humankind, though, and, as such, are exempt from such rules). Also, be aware that the colors of the American flag have now officially been changed to the ones on Beyonc\u00e9\u2019s shirt.\nThe Mona Lisa asked for a selfie with Beyonc\u00e9, and Beyonc\u00e9 was like, \u201cNo one gets a joint Beyonc\u00e9 selfie\u2014that would be like me handing out $1,000 to whoever asked for it\u2014but I\u2019ll give you a few nails.\u201d\nHere\u2019s Beyonc\u00e9 taking a selfie in front of a statue.

Epic Games will release the new season in less than 24 hours, and players are excited about it. Season 6 will bring many new features, cross-play between Xbox One and PlayStation, and map changes.\nIt appears that in-game pets will be a new feature in the upcoming season. Right now, it is unknown how exactly pets will work, but they will most likely be used as cosmetic items. Pets probably won\u2019t be used for combat, but we will find out more information with the season 6 patch notes.\nLeaked Fortnite pets\nEarlier this season, data miners have found game files which indicate the presence of Fortnite Battle Royale pets. These files were added with the patch 5.40, but the game developer hasn\u2019t done anything since then. Many players thought that this could be a new feature in season 6, and it seems they were right.\nPlayStation has accidentally leaked the new feature in its store. PlayStation Store put up an image of the new skins that are coming to Fortnite Battle Royale, as well as pets. The image was quickly taken down, but not before it was captured and shared over the internet.\nAs you can see in the image above, DJ llama skin has a dog on its back. There is also an inflatable llama, but it doesn\u2019t seem this is a pet, rather simply a skin. If you take a closer look, you can see that the player on the right side is not riding the llama. Instead, the llama is just a part of the skin as you can see his legs.\nAdditionally, the image shows the cowgirl skin which was released with the second teaser. With Fortnite season 6 just hours away, many players are looking forward to new features and major changes.\nSeptember 26, 2018 - 10:34 am Fortnite",

The visa system is the popular way in today\u2019s world to identify visitors to create an acceptable level of control. In terms of Vietnam, the annual visitor numbers are increasing every year and now stand in excess of 10 million. The Government understands the importance of tourist revenue to the national economy and as a result regularly looks at its entry regulations so that it can retain a good level of control while not putting anything in place that makes entry to its beautiful country unreasonably difficult.\nThe best system for getting a cheap visa to Vietnam is the Vietnam Visa on arrival procedure that applies to people arriving in the country purely by air. That remains by far the most popular way for travellers to arrive to enjoy a Vietnam holiday.\nSome nationalities are exempt from needing a Vietnam visa as long as their stay is for less than a defined period. That period ranges from 15 days in the case of citizens of Sweden and Norway as European examples to 30 days in the case of neighbours Laos, Thailand and Malaysia.\nThose who need to apply for a Vietnam visa can do so at an embassy or consulate but that can be time-consuming and inconvenient. It may take up to 10 days to obtain the visa, and during that time the passport is surrendered. By far the better way, with the proviso that it applies to arrivals by air, is to obtain a Vietnam visa on arrival by using a reliable local service that can apply to the Vietnam Immigration Department for a Vietnam Approval Letter. All that an applicant needs to do is complete an application form and pay the small fee then everything else is handled.\nSuch a service will take no more than 2 or 3 days with a copy of the Letter sent both to the client and the Immigration Department at the proposed airport of entry. On arrival, someone with that letter will have the Vietnam visa stamped in his or her passport by Immigration that already has prior knowledge of that visitor\u2019s arrival.\nIn some cases, travellers need an urgent visa to Vietnam; that is a service that can be speeded up so that the Letter is processed in a single working day. Most tourists will be well prepared and not need an urgent Vietnam visa but it is nice to know that the system is in place.\nWith tourist numbers growing each year, there is pressure on the Vietnam Immigration Department so the logic of using a specialist visa company with existing contacts within the authorities makes absolute sense. It is the kind of service that a good Vietnam travel operator like Vivu Travel is happy to provide through an associate company; a \u2018\u2019one-stop shop\u2019\u2019 for holiday packages and the means of entry.",

        "title": "Dave East Has Harlem, Nas, and the Whole City Behind Him | Village Voice",
        "raw_content": "Dave East Has Harlem, Nas, and the Whole City Behind Him\nDave East Photo by Victor Michael\nBy day, Wooster Street is overrun with the dregs of Soho \u2014 self-aggrandizing fashionistas, tourists asking for directions to the Kardashian Dash boutique \u2014 but by night, the cobblestoned sidewalk in front of 84 Wooster is quiet and peaceful. It\u2019s also the perfect place to smoke weed. \u201cDon\u2019t ask for permission. I\u2019ve been learning that,\u201d says Dave East. Having been told that he can\u2019t smoke on the roof of his record label\u2019s building, the rapper now perches himself right at the entryway. It\u2019s 8 p.m. and the air is crisp in anticipation of the first day of fall. East gingerly places a small amount of herb onto a square of raw rolling paper. He reclines, wearing ripped jeans and Nike Air Force 1s, and relishes his first puff of the day.\nThe 27-year-old has a lot on his mind. He\u2019s releasing his ambitious Hate Me Now on October 2. He\u2019s planning his first overseas shows, in Japan. And \u2014 as if that weren\u2019t enough \u2014 East and his longtime girlfriend are expecting their first child next year. As Nas\u2019s prot\u00e9g\u00e9, the stakes are high. But then Dave East has dealt with pressure his whole life.\nBorn in East Harlem, East had hoop dreams, not musical aspirations, as a kid. He grew up on a healthy diet of uptown hip-hop (Mase, Cam\u2019ron, Dipset), but his father groomed his son \u2014 who\u2019d reach a healthy six-five \u2014 to play basketball. East would get as far as the collegiate level, first at the University of Richmond and later at Towson University. But his attitude was a problem. He locked horns with his coaches and was ultimately dropped. Sidelined, he began selling drugs in Baltimore and landed himself a six-month stint in jail.\n\u201cHonestly, I was embarrassed because my mother was in court,\u201d East says, looking down at his tattooed hands. \u201cI just took it on the chin and ran with it.\u201d The detour proved the kick in the ass he needed. He was able to \u201cfocus up\u201d on music as well as a new spiritual path. He converted from Catholicism to Islam after his cellmate exposed him to the religion.\nHe lights up another joint. \u201cI ain\u2019t the best Muslim.\u201d Yes, East has taken the shahadah and officially converted, but he\u2019s not overzealous, clearly. He balances the trappings of rap \u2014 women, weed, and dark liquor \u2014 with faith to the best of his ability. He prays five times a day (or tries to), and he\u2019s staunch about upholding holy days.\n\u2018People think I live in the Hills, [that] I\u2019m lit. Nah, brother.\u2019\n\u201cSoon as I came home from that, I got right into the rap shit,\u201d he says. \u201cThe ball shit ain\u2019t really work out how I thought. I\u2019ve never been no 9-to-5 type of dude. I wanted to do something I love to do, something that\u2019s fun. Something that I know I\u2019m gonna love waking up and doing every day. Rap always came easy to me. In Harlem, that\u2019s what we do. We play ball, rap, or hustle.\u201d He began recording mixtapes by scrimping, borrowing, and (admittedly) hustling for money to pay for studio time. \u201cI kept making videos every other week. I stayed in the studio. I treated that shit like my real job.\u201d\nNew York City rap is notorious for its hypercompetitive, crabs-in-a-barrel ethos, but following 2013\u2019s Gemini mixtape, industry players like Sway, DJ Kay Slay, and Jovonn of Power 105 started to notice the neophyte\u2019s lyrical prowess and style. East\u2019s biggest break came last summer, when he earned an unexpected fan in Nas. \u201cI don\u2019t know how it happened, to be all the way 100 with you,\u201d East admits. As legend has it, Nas was scouring YouTube for new music and stumbled upon East\u2019s reggae-influenced \u201cBati Boy.\u201d Nas\u2019s brother Jungle (whom East knew from hanging out in the Queensbridge projects) was in the room, and the connection was made. Nas called shortly after just to give East props. \u201cHe was like, \u2018Oh, you good? You killing this shit. We gonna talk soon. Keep my number. Lock this in. Keep killing.\u2019\n\u201cI\u2019m like, I don\u2019t know what\u2019s going on!\u201d East laughs, taking a sip of Hennessy. The two continued exchanging messages, but East had to \u201ckeep killing\u201d it on his own. He released Black Rose, expanding his growing fan base and garnering attention from New York OGs like Styles P, Jadakiss, and Raekwon. Six months after his call from Nas, East inked a deal with the rapper and Mass Appeal Records.\nBeing Nas\u2019s prot\u00e9g\u00e9 has opened doors otherwise padlocked shut to an indie. Dave East gets play on Hot 97, he hangs with the cool kids \u2014 like a recent dinner with the owners of Hennessy \u2014 and the rap cognoscenti give his music a serious listen. None of this guarantees shit, of course. East is still on the same block he\u2019s always been on \u2014 figuratively and literally. \u201cMe and [Nas\u2019s] relationship is what it really seems,\u201d he says of their closeness, though people often misconstrue it. \u201cPeople think I live in the Hills, [that] I\u2019m lit. Nah, brother.\u201d\nThe half-life of hype is dangerously short. If indeed you do only get one shot to blow, Hate Me Now has to be a slam dunk. One of the early standouts on the twenty-track commercial project, out October 2, is \u201cForbes List.\u201d Nas and East share a simpatico back-and-forth about the good life, trading perspectives as sensei and grasshopper. \u201cI could see me in the sports cars/On sixteen shots of brown at the sports bar/At sixteen, I was hiding report cards/Now I see myself getting where I\u2019m going, no OnStar,\u201d raps East. Counters Nas: \u201cI rock tuxes, busters/Clusters cover my watches/Drop mustard color, foreign cars in garages/Only queens I fuck with C\u00e9line clutches.\u201d\n\u201cHe put a lot of work in,\u201d says manager Wayno, who\u2019s been hanging out on the far side of the sidewalk during this interview. \u201cWe recorded a lot of music. We had a lot of arguments. He\u2019s either really happy or really upset.\u201d East interjects playfully, \u201cI\u2019m a Gemini! You can argue me \u2014 anybody!\u201d Their relationship is more brotherly than business. \u201cThis is something that\u2019s really gonna change our lives,\u201d says Wayno.\nDave East\u2019s dreams are closer to the ground. \u201c[I want to] get on the road. That\u2019s my biggest thing right now. I did every venue in New York you could perform at except for the Garden and Barclays, you feel me?\u201d He stares into the distance. \u201cI want to get out of New York.\u201d His phone buzzes. It\u2019s his girlfriend wondering where he is and why this interview is taking so long. (Far be it from the Voice to keep a pregnant woman waiting.) We wrap things up. He gives me a quick hug and hops shotgun into a sedan heading back to Harlem, presumably. Dave East is on the precipice of fame, but right now, life calls.",

        "raw_content": "In late December 2011, two young out-of-state businessmen were randomly stabbed in a New Jersey hotel when they came upon a disorderly party. One of the men, a father and husband, died from his wounds.\nInadequate security lawsuit\nWhile the criminal proceedings stemming from the incident continue, in October 2013 the surviving victim and the family of the deceased victim filed a civil lawsuit in New Jersey state court, alleging that the hotel's owner-operators negligently provided inadequate security and protection to the plaintiffs as paying hotel guests, according to myCentralJersey.com and NJ.com.\nIn New Jersey, a suit based on negligent security falls into the category of \"premises liability,\" the broad legal concept that anyone that owns or controls property must keep it reasonably safe for those lawfully on it. In commercial settings, the owner or operator of an enterprise like a hotel, store or restaurant must exercise ordinary care to keep the premises safe for patrons and customers.\nSuch lawsuits are also often brought against landlords for premises liability violations that cause injury to tenants or their guests on rental property.\nThe duty to keep business premises safe extends to the physical setting which must be kept in reasonable order and repair to prevent dangerous conditions on floors, sidewalks and stairs on which patrons could trip and fall. Such premises must also be kept reasonably safe through regular maintenance and repair of mechanical systems like electricity, heating, gas and so on.\nIn addition, the duty to provide reasonable security includes an obligation to warn commercial guests of dangers the owner or operator knows about or would know about on reasonable inspection.\nThe duty to keep premises safe for patrons also encompasses the provision of reasonable security to prevent dangerous criminal activity that can harm guests. A New Jersey court looks at all of the relevant circumstances to determine whether an owner or operator of a commercial concern provided adequate security where a patron was the victim of crime on the premises.\nFor example, a court might consider whether previous criminal acts on the premises or in the neighborhood would make further crimes foreseeable such that the proprietor must take reasonable steps to protect patrons from such acts. Similarly, it may be relevant to liability whether a commercial concern reacted appropriately to requests for assistance or reports of strange events that could indicate dangerous security breaches.\nAnother relevant factor in assessing the overall circumstances for liability would be whether the defendant had control over the particular place of injury such as whether a business controlled a parking lot.\nIn a negligent security suit, the plaintiff may be able to collect money damages for medical expenses, pain and suffering, lost wages, punitive damages and more.\nTalk to an experienced New Jersey personal injury attorney\nIf you or a loved one is injured in or on the premises of a store, restaurant, hotel or other commercial concern open to the public in New Jersey, speak with a knowledgeable litigation attorney about whether you should file a lawsuit based on inadequate security or on any other kind of negligent or reckless behavior on the part of those who operate or own the establishment, or on the part of any third party hired to provide security or other services.\nOther legal bases may also exist for liability in such situations based upon breach of contract and more.",

        "raw_content": "Home - Exhibitions - Traveling Exhibitions - Washington: The Myths and the Man\nWashington: The Myths and the Man is a touring exhibition organized by the Virginia Museum of History & Culture.\nContent: 13 framed original paintings; reproduction panels; 30 object labels; 8 text panels.\nRequirements: Please send an AAM General Facility Report\nFollowing his death in 1799, George Washington seemed \u201cabove the clouds,\u201d to paraphrase the general\u2019s most popular biographer, Mason Locke Weems. The glorification of Washington continued for more than a century, culminating in the romanticized and popular history paintings of the Philadelphia artist Jean Leon Gerome Ferris (1863\u20131930). These canvases present a remarkably appealing and virtuous figure but provide limited reliable information about the \u201cFather\u201d of our country. This show presents 13 original paintings by Ferris along with 17 historical records that reveal facts about Washington\u2019s actual life. These letters, surveys, maps, and farm records reintroduce the actual man.\n\u201cLighthorse Harry\u201d Lee famously eulogized that Washington was \u201cfirst in war, first in peace, and first in the hearts of his countrymen. . . . The purity of his private character gave effulgence to his public virtues.\u201d This exhibit focuses on Washington\u2019s private life at Mount Vernon to reveal what motivated Washington the public servant.\nWashington: The Myths and the Man exhibit on display at the Virginia Museum of History & Culture\nThe Courtship of Washington, 1758\nThe Courtship of Washington, 1758 (about 1917) Jean Leon Gerome Ferris 1996.49.2, Purchased with funds provided by Lora M. Robins. In 1758, Martha Custis was a 27-year-old-widow who only recently had lost her husband, two of her four young children, and her father. Accordingly, her courtship by Washington was probably guided by propriety. Ferris, however, saw it as a great romance; he presents Martha as a vibrant young woman totally enthralled by the handsome and gallant officer who courts her.\nLetter, George Washington to Robert Dinwiddie, 29 May 1754\nGeorge Washington to Robert Dinwiddie (May 29, 1754) Facsimile from Mss3 V8194 D6194 a 11, Gift of William Wilson Corcoran. To counter an anticipated massive French incursion into the Ohio in 1755, the British crown authorized Governor Dinwiddie to build an army. Washington soon became its commander. In an early engagement, his force attacked a French party and killed its commanding officer. On the fifth page of this letter Washington acknowledges the incident. This skirmish initiated the French and Indian War, which became known internationally as the Seven Years\u2019 War.\nWashington\u2019s Inauguration at Independence Hall, 1793\nWashington\u2019s Inauguration at Independence Hall, 1793 (about 1913) Jean Leon Gerome Ferris 1996.49.3, Purchased with funds provided by Lora M. Robins. Ferris celebrates the public approval that Washington had earned by the start of his second term. In this recreated scene, the president is depicted beside Vice President John Adams, Secretary of State Thomas Jefferson, and Secretary of War Henry Knox (who exits the coach). With Alexander Hamilton, these advisors formed a somewhat incompatible conclave that only Washington had the power and influence to control. Appropriately, the president is shown to have stepped from a carriage that might have carried a king, and the entire setting is one of affluence. The president and many of his supporters advocated a powerful central government that would protect the lifestyles of the wealthiest of their constituents. They had no intention of overturning the oligarchy of wealth and talent that Washington, on the model of the Virginia colony, had brought to the government.\nPage, George Washington\u2019s Diary, 1790-91\nPage from George Washington\u2019s Diary (Page 6; 19 March 1790) Facsimile from Mss 5:1 W2773:1, Gift of James K. Marshall. Washington kept this diary during his first presidency, when the newly designed American government was put into operation. It provides some indication as to the issues that consumed his time. One question that continuously confronted him was how to receive foreign visitors. If the purpose was private business, he would have the visitor send letters in advance. If they arrived on state business, Washington suggested a different plan.\nUnder My Own Vine and Fig Tree, 1798\nUnder My Own Vine and Fig Tree, 1798 (about 1910) Jean Leon Gerome Ferris 1996.49.11, Purchased with funds provided by Lora M. Robins. The Virginia gentry since the seventeenth century had quoted 1 Kings when they described life under their \u201cvine and fig tree.\u201d This reaffirmed for them the desirability of their plantation existence. Here, Washington is shown enjoying the retirement that is the fruit of his long labors. Ferris suggests the affectionate relationship between Washington and Nelly Custis, a daughter of his deceased stepson Jacky Custis. The artist reminds his viewers that wherever Washington turned his paternal gaze he was able to bring the entity in question\u2014his family, his plantings, and his nation\u2014to their successful maturity.\nNews from Mount Vernon, 1796\nNews from Mount Vernon, 1796 (about 1930) Jean Leon Gerome Ferris 1996.49.10, Purchased with funds provided by Lora M. Robins. Washington complained that \u201cthe duties of my public station do not allow me to pay that attention to Agriculture... that I could wish,\u201d but in fact he was able to devote large blocks of time to farming during his presidency. In 1793 some 40% of the surviving pages written by the president are letters of instruction that he drafted for his caretakers at home.\nThe Call of the Sea, 1747\nThe Call of the Sea, 1747 (about 1921) Jean Leon Gerome Ferris, 1996.49.1, Purchased with funds provided by Lora M. Robins. The example of his brother\u2019s service under Admiral Vernon nearly led George Washington to go to sea at age fourteen; his mother, however, opposed the idea. Ferris valued the incident because he felt that it determined the course of history. In his notes he argues that the Revolutionary War would have been lost if Washington\u2019s determined mother had not steered him at this moment from what would have been the wrong path.\nSurvey for Richard Barnes for a tract of 400 acres in Culpeper County, George Washington, 1749\nSurvey for Richard Barnes for a tract of 400 acres in Culpeper County (1749) George Washington Facsimile of Mss1 St824 a 1, Gift of Mrs. Lewis Lichtenstein Strauss. This is the first of more than 190 professional surveys run by Washington. It was made in his capacity as surveyor for Culpeper County, a lucrative position almost certainly awarded to him through the influence of his wealthy Fairfax family neighbors. Throughout his life, his attention to detail and his ability to present information succinctly and to formulate clear directives allowed Washington to maintain order, even during the most chaotic periods of his public and private lives.\nWashington: The Myths and the Man exhibit\nLetter, George Washington to Robert Dinwid\nWashington\u2019s Inauguration at Independence\nSurvey for Richard Barnes for a tract of 4",

Walker oversees the event in the city. Target is the national sponsor of National Night Out. \"It's a little bit of a change of how we've done it for the last three years. This also makes it a bit more of a community event.\"\nAs usual, the event will feature the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department. It'll also feature representatives of the San Bernardino County Fire Department, officials from the city of Hesperia, representatives of the Hesperia Recreation and Parks Department and other groups.\n\"All of the businesses [at the High Desert Gateway shopping center] I've talked out there will be participating in National Night Out,\" said Walker. \"We'll have our command post out there, we'll have our music, [and] our Explorer [Scouts] will all be out there.\"\nNational Night Out \"is designed to [help] people take back the streets and let the crooks know 'this is our neighborhood,'\" she said. \"We'll be providing information about neighborhood watch programs and teach people how to be aware what's going on in their community.\"\nThe Target event won't be the only National Night Out event occurring in the city, though: Four apartment complexes are again holding their own block parties on Aug. 3.\n\"The apartments wanted to participate because they really like to get their complexes involved and have a really good time.

        "title": "Time to start taking political ignorance seriously - The Washington Post",
        "raw_content": "Time to start taking political ignorance seriously\nEven more than most others, the awful 2016 election cycle has highlighted the dangers of political ignorance. Data has long shown that voter ignorance is widespread on both sides of the political spectrum . A high percentage of the public is often ignorant of even very basic information, such as which party controls Congress, which officials are responsible for which issues, and how the federal government spends our tax money.\nThis year, public ignorance has likely played a major role in giving us an unusually painful set of choices on election day, especially (but not exclusively) by contributing to the rise of Donald Trump. Most of the ignorance out there is not the result of stupidity or venality on the part of voters. It is, to a great extent, entirely rational behavior driven by the fact that there is so little chance that any one vote will change the outcome of an election.\nIf your only reason to become informed about politics is to make better choices at the ballot box, that turns out not to be much of an incentive at all. The odds that your vote will decide the outcome are infinitesimally small. From the standpoint of the ordinary voter, it makes sense to pay little attention to political issues, and instead devote most of your time and effort to other matters.\nAs former British Prime Minister Tony Blair puts it, \u201c[t]he single hardest thing for a practising politician to understand is that most people, most of the time, don\u2019t give politics a first thought all day long. Or if they do, it is with a sigh\u2026., before going back to worrying about the kids, the parents, the mortgage, the boss, their friends, their weight, their health, sex and rock \u2018n\u2019 roll\u2026. For most normal people, politics is a distant, occasionally irritating fog.\u201d This year, the fog is even more irritating \u2013 and much scarier \u2013 than usual. But it does not seem to have caused voters to become better-informed. Such behavior is perfectly rational. The ignorance of any one voter makes almost no difference. But individually rational ignorance can cause great harm when many millions of voters behave the same way.\nIn addition to making little effort to seek out information, most voters also do a poor job of evaluating what information they do know. Instead of acting as truth seekers, they instead function as \u201cpolitical fans\u201d cheering on Team Red or Team Blue, overvaluing any information that confirms their preexisting views while ignoring or downplaying anything that cuts the other way.\nThis kind of bias is exacerbated by the intense partisanship and polarization that has descended upon American politics in recent years. Partisans like to claim that the other side\u2019s voters are influenced by ignorance, and they are often right to think so. But rarely consider the possibility that the same may be true of their own party\u2019s supporters.\nBy some measures, partisan hatred is now more widespread than racial and ethnic prejudice, and certainly more socially acceptable. Even if voters somehow become significantly better informed than they are, they may not get much value out of their knowledge unless we can figure out how to curb the \u201ctribal\u201d partisan hatred that has engulfed our politics.\nPolitical ignorance is not unique to the United States, but is also a serious problem in many other democracies. In recent years, dangerous demagogic movements of both the right and the left have grown in influence in many European democracies, and elsewhere. Public ignorance is a major contributor to the racism, xenophobia, and zero-sum thinking that facilitate their rise. Sadly, such exploitation of ignorance is often more effective in periods of slow economic growth, like the one we are experiencing now.\nSeveral important works warning about the dangers of political ignorance have been authored by libertarian scholars like Bryan Caplan and Jason Brennan (I critiqued Brennan\u2019s insghtful recent book on the subject here). But left of center experts have also sounded the alarm, including Christopher Achen and Larry Bartels\u2019 excellent recent book Democracy for Realists (which I reviewed here).\nYou don\u2019t have to be a libertarian skeptic about government to worry about political ignorance. Indeed, the greater the role you want democratic government to play in society, the more you have reason to worry about the quality of voter decision-making. The more powerful the state is, the greater the harm it can cause if ignorant voters entrust that power to the wrong hands. Here too, the rise of Trump is a warning we should take seriously. He is not the first or (most likely) the last demagogue of his kind.\nI have long argued that we can best alleviate the dangers of political ignorance by limiting and decentralizing the power of government, and enabling people to make more decisions by \u201cvoting with their feet\u201d rather than at the ballot box. Foot voters deciding where they want to live or making choices in the private sector have much stronger incentives to become well-informed than ballot box voters do. There is much we can do to enhance opportunities for foot voting, particularly among the poor and disadvantaged. Limiting and decentralizing government power could also reduce the enormous scope and complexity of the modern state, which make it virtually impossible for voters to keep track of more than a small fraction of its activities.\nBut I am open to considering a variety of other possible strategies for addressing the problem, including voter education initiatives, and \u201csortition,\u201d directly incentivizing citizens to increase their knowledge, among others. Perhaps the best approach to is a combination of different measures, not relying on some one silver bullet.\nLarge-scale reform efforts aside, there are a number of things individual voters can do to become better-informed and less biased. I am not optimistic that very many will actually do so. But even modest, incremental progress might help somewhat.\nIn this post, my purpose is not to prove that my preferred solution is the best, but to urge you to take the problem of public ignorance more seriously \u2013 and to recognize that it goes deeper than just the shortcomings of your political adversaries of the moment. Voter ignorance one of the most important weaknesses of modern democratic government. If we do not erect better safeguards against it, the situation could easily get even worse than it has already become.",

        "raw_content": "Future Proof SEO Campaigns\nThe search results pages of popular search engines are changing dramatically into far more dynamic resources. Is your digital presence ready; is it future proofed?\nMany of the search engine optimization industry elite today believe both Google and Bing SERPs will look, perform and act far differently in the future \u2014 we\u2019re looking at you Google Glasses. But will the search results pages of search engines, the primary source of traffic for a vast majority of websites, actually be unlike today\u2019s? And will future SEO demand that big brands, small companies and startup enterprises change the tactics they currently use to acquire visitors from those sources?\nThere\u2019s a different way to think of the future. Perhaps what will change most about SEO is how those responsible for its success (defined as gaining more qualified unique visitors from the likes of Google and Bing\u2019s unpaid search results) approach the practice on the whole. In the future, top search rankings will be the product of a more proactive and comprehensive plan covering the entire digital experience. This could result in smarter design and broader, yet more relevant awareness initiatives, and even a more profitable experience for the business itself.\nSo, what should your brand expect? How can your SEO team future proof its efforts? Let\u2019s explore what the future may hold and how enterprises can prepare.\nDESIGN a SMARTER Web\nThere's a reason that HTML5 and CSS3 have entered the digital media professional's lexicon. They're important to a broad range of marketing and technical responsibilities, as important to SEO as it is to digital designers.\nFor example, CSSs provides SEOs the ability to separate style from content, just the type of data that search engines seek out, process and return in the form of search results. Separating stylistic elements from the data, enables search engines to better and more efficiently match documents (e.g. Web pages) to queries, because they are able to more clearly and quickly understand the context.\nApproaching the search engines in the future with a smarter design will be one of the main roads toward natural search marketing success. And there are considerations that you should be making right now. For example, there\u2019s a reason that both search engines have publicly shown their support for the use of responsive Web design (RWD), which forces the prioritization of content based on device type (removing the unnecessary elements in some instances).\nBut RWD isn\u2019t the lone answer. There is another one: clean up your code. Many sites using responsive design aren\u2019t truly optimizing for the multi-device experience, including any manner of third-party javascript on pages that will be viewed on devices and connections that aren\u2019t always as quick as Web workers would like to imagine. In fact, the average size of Web pages continues to grow.\nAccording to the website HTTP Archive, which regularly studies the top 10,000 most visited sites online, the average Web page now weighs in at about 1.3 megabytes, up about 35 percent in the last year. It\u2019s not the \u201ccontent\u201d per say, it\u2019s all the marketing analytics javascript that\u2019s causing the problem.\nTo solve this issue, consider the use of a Tag management platform to aid in designing nonbloated (or less bloated) code. Solutions, such as those provided by Tealium or Google\u2019s Tag Manager, take the hard work out of integrating various analytics and tracking scripts into a Web page, which can dramatically slow down the user experience and potentially make pages load incompletely, to the frustration of users and search engines.\nOPTIMIZE the content EXPERIENCE\nThe amount of information that is produced and then optimized for the purpose of getting documents into the search results and then in to competitive positions (defined as at least the first few natural listings) is by all accounts impressive, and it needs to be.\nEvery day, Google provides results for more than 1 billion questions, even many first-time ones. Coupled with all of the individual personalization in the search experience of today, there\u2019s no one SEO practice that will ensure a consistent rank for even the most relevant result. As such, enterprises are thinking more about the user\u2019s experience once they click through, and how to optimize that experience. Doing so provides its own, potentially big, reward.\nSearch engines may take into account bounce rate and any number of other variables to determine the quality of the experience a user received on a website, at least as it relates to directing to and returning from a particular search result page and the individual query of the user. If the search engines can determine that users like what they find when they arrive and ultimately move through a website (ideally toward some manner of conversion goal and encountering additional social sharing opportunities along the way) then the chances a document/page will consistently appear on the SERPs increases dramatically, because now there\u2019s evidence of quality.\nTo make it all work, it remains essential to increase the amount of time and interactions from the user experience, and Web content presents as good an opportunity as any available to start. By sending users to known \u201chigh-velocity\u201d areas of your digital property, brands are able to better control the user experience. For example, if a visitor to WebsiteMagazine.com came from a search query about a recent Web hosting news item, it would benefit that user and our internal business initiatives if we can direct them to an area where they would spend more time consuming information (e.g. downloading whitepapers) and improve our site\u2019s reputation in the process.\nThe challenge is that website analytics solutions, such as those provided by Adobe and Google, tend to show us only what we look for, not what we don\u2019t. We know the most popular content items and which conversion funnel we want users to end up in, but what\u2019s missing is the connective virtual tissue. Solutions such as LinkSmart provide its content analytics and insights platform free, are able to analyze and provide insights that ultimately make it possible to send users to high-value areas of your enterprise.\nThere\u2019s no crystal ball that will reveal the future of natural search engine optimization, but many believe it is the user experience that will change the most and have the greatest influence on search success. There will always be an opportunity to indicate relevancy (e.g. title tags and anchor text) to the search engines, but to top the search results pages in the future, the experience a brand provides will need to be more efficient and more effective through smarter design and a more thoughtful on-page experience.",

        "raw_content": "https://i.ytimg.com/vi/65UIN1J3IDA/maxresdefault.jpg\nThe Statue Is The Message: On RhodesMustFall\nBy Laith Cahill on\t July 8, 2016 Opinion\nA sculpture or a statue, unlike a painting which can be mounted \u2018on the wall over there\u2019, or \u2018in the corridor behind that door there\u2019, necessarily occupies space. To borrow from The New Yorker, \u201cit intrudes on an already crowded world\u201d. A statue we dislike is much harder to ignore than a painting we don\u2019t like. In occupying the same three dimensional plane that we do, it lends itself to criticism.\nSometimes, I think that this is all there is to the RhodesMustFall controversy. Had the honouring \u2018art\u2019 (let us, for now, call it art) been a painting, would there be such a furore surrounding it? Is it because the statue is so obviously intruding on space that the arguments have reached the controversy it has?\nThere is of course, more to it than that. The sculpture of Rhodes has intruded on other discourses. It now notably occupies the debate over free speech and Britain\u2019s imperial past.\nThe labelling of the statue as \u2018art\u2019 is misleading. If we don\u2019t think of the statue as a work of art, we can think of it as more of a static entity. It stands not for a portal into multiple interpretations but as a straightforward representative placeholder. For now, let us think of the statue as nothing more than a statue depicting a man who was, for better or worse, a part of Britain\u2019s, and Oxford\u2019s history. This is what a lot of the arguments over censorship revolve around; our own Politics Editor made a strong argument on this site.\nThis raises the question, if it\u2019s not a work of art, what is the statue\u2019s purpose? What does it set out to achieve? Surely the process of having a person\u2019s features cast and elevated onto a plinth is often a sign of honour? In this particular case, I don\u2019t think many people (before or after the controversy) would question this interpretation. The statue occupies a space in order to honour the man on the plinth. This seems fairly obvious.\nThis is where I think the argument about censorship falls flat. The issue is not that the Rhodes statue remembers our imperial past. What is at stake here is the question of what we should and shouldn\u2019t honour. The issue is that it acknowledges a man who contributed to colonising Africa and, rather than seeing that as an unfortunate part of a history, celebrates it.\nAgain, is this just a question of form? But, then again, the medium is the message.\nOf course, all representations are\u2019t merely static placeholders but always political. The easiest, most accessible entry into this idea is Adichie\u2019s The Danger of the Single Story Ted talk. Anyone who is interested in this \u2013 whether they agree or disagree \u2013 should watch it.\nThe Rhodes statue is a single story. His plinth stands unopposed by the people he undermined, the communities he savaged in the name of imperialism. That is not an acknowledgement of the past, but a repetition.\nRhodes Must Fall \u2013 And It Isn\u2019t Censorship\nThe French Flag, Rhodes And Infantile Student Politics\nCutting Maintenance Grants Sends A Damaging Message To Poorer Students\nDamien Hirst\u2019s \u2018Verity:\u2019 An Allegory of Truth and Justice, or Tacky and Tasteless?\nTags: ArtFree SpeechImperialismRhodesrhodesmustfall\nLaith Cahill",

        "title": "What\u2019s So Special About Singapore?",
        "raw_content": "What\u2019s So Special About Singapore?\nSingapore is just an incredible city. It\u2019s almost eerily perfect at times, just like the setting of a weird utopian film. It\u2019s got the towering city skyline of New York; but without the suffocating atmosphere that follows.\nThe Singapore skyline gives off the impression that every building has been specifically constructed with careful consideration of its appearance, among the others. No view ever looks overcrowded and no building ever looks oddly placed. Singapore is a photographer\u2019s dream and a city you don\u2019t forget in a hurry. There is endless amounts to see and do here, with their well organised and simple metro and bus systems it\u2019s the easiest city to get around and accomplish a lot in a limited time frame.\nAt the end of the day, Singapore is a hugely metropolitan city with a lot of urban and modern culture; which often places it at the forefront of the world\u2019s most significant cities. No kidding, at one point I thought I was watching an episode of Futurama; so, whilst visiting this goldmine of modernisation you should definitely make the most of the exhibitions Singapore offers. From its endless museums, with so much historical importance to its thought provoking and interesting modern art, there is a lot of mind expanding opportunities in this city that shouldn\u2019t go a miss.\nThis attraction definitely needs at least half a day or even a full day to cover, if you want to do it properly. I made the mistake of leaving it till late afternoon and although it was still incredibly enchanting, there just wasn\u2019t enough time to get around it all. The botanical gardens are a god-sent scenic paradise, even if you aren\u2019t hugely interested in the details of each plant and flower. The gardens are worth visiting just to appreciate the obscurity of such a natural atmosphere inside an urban hotspot. So, bring a book, music or your art equipment and go explore to find the garden for you, whether that be the healing, orchid, ginger, pre-historical garden or any of the many other choices.\nFor all the animal lovers, this is a wonderful addition to the trip. Sometimes when you go to a zoo, you leave feeling terrible that you contributed to funding the entrapment of helpless animals, who might have seemed miserable. But, Singapore Zoo is not like that at all, the zoo is extremely conscious of the mistreatment of animals elsewhere and they do everything they can to provide a wonderful home for the animals. The whole zoo is covered in so many massive posters; which spread warnings and awareness about impending extinction of species and the brutality of the sports and meat industries. Although a weighty topic, it is important and the zoo is the most ideal place to spread this information to other individuals who will share these concerns and want to protect the destruction and mistreatment of animals and their habitats. The most impressive aspect of the zoo is how well laid out and spacious the enclosures are. Some displays aren\u2019t even enclosed and involve walking among the animals so you are within an arm\u2019s reach of them. It truly feels like you are visiting the animals in their natural homes, which of course is not always true, but the zoo has done a great job of trying to bridge that gap.\nThis tourist attraction and its marina bay surroundings are just breathtaking, especially at night. All of Singapore\u2019s attractions and structures are lit up with thousands of twinkle lights and is a must see for any traveller. The view is truly amazing and if you want to make it even more impressive than you can make your way onto the Singapore flyer; which provides a bird\u2019s eye gaze of the city to let you soak up all its glory from above.\nAll photo credit: Freya Millard\nSingapore: The Lion City\nTags: AsiaCitySingaporetravel",

H. pylori infections may be asymptomatic, but can lead to dyspepsia or serious complications such as duodenal and gastric ulcers, an increased risk of gastric cancer and higher rates of mucosal associated lymphoid-type lymphoma.\nSeveral invasive and non-invasive methodologies are currently available for determining current infection, before and after eradication therapy. Each testing methodology for H. pylori poses advantages and disadvantages to the laboratory, patient, and institution. In this webinar, we explore how to select the appropriate testing methodology by balancing performance, economics, workflow, and patient care.\n\u2022 Evaluate the appropriate testing methodology by balancing performance, economics, and workflow\n\u2022 Discuss the best patient care by providing accurate results for appropriate care within a test-treat-test framework, while also taking into account economic and convenience considerations for the patient\n\u2022 Examine the process of protecting the economic health and reputation of the institution while providng the best patient care\nDavid Lyerly, PhD\nDavid Lyerly, Ph.D. has published >120 peer-reviewed publications on intestinal disease.

With this evolution in the clinical oncology landscape, academic medical centers and hospital systems alike have adopted diagnostic precision medicine tools like next-generation sequencing (NGS). NGS enables labs to rapidly and simultaneously test many genomic biomarkers from just a few nanograms of precious formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) clinical specimens. As the number of clinically actionable biomarkers continues to expand, these approaches will continue to play a critical diagnostic role in the clinical laboratory setting.\nIn this webinar, our expert speaker will highlight the clinical and economic considerations for implementing an NGS-based personalized medicine program and discuss case studies that demonstrate the benefits of broad genomic profiling across a wide variety of cancer types.\n\u2022 Describe the decision making process in deciding whether to implement next-generation sequencing in a clinical pathology lab setting\n\u2022 Identify the variety of testing strategies and chemistries available\n\u2022 Review example case studies where NGS is uniquely suited to provide novel clinical insights\nBrian D.

MSI testing has been a rapidly evolving field, both in terms of clinical applications for MSI testing as well as methodologies available to perform MSI testing. In the first portion of his talk, Dr. Mackinnon will provide an update on the current state of MSI testing.\nAs requests for MSI evaluation increase, it will be important for labs to be able to perform MSI testing in a timely and accurate manner. Traditional molecular testing techniques for MSI are often challenging to perform. They require high levels of operator expertise as well as analysis of a normal tissue components, since the traditional biomarkers are not tumor specific.\nDr. Mackinnon has evaluated a novel set of MSI biomarkers that are analyzed by fully automated testing platform, making MSI testing accessible to virtually any lab. He will present the performance data from a cross-platform comparison of IHC and two different molecular MSI evaluation methods and share results for 50 colorectal cancer samples tested by all three methods.\n\u2022 Describe the two main testing strategies for MSI testing\n\u2022 Identify the reasons/clinical applications for performing MSI testing and what MSI-High vs. Microsatellite Stable (MSS) results means\n\u2022 Analyze the performance of three MSI testing technologies, i.e., IHC + 2 molecular testing methods\nAlexander Craig Mackinnon, MD PhD\nDirector, Clinical and Translational Research Core Lab\nDr. Mackinnon is an Associate Professor of Pathology and the current Director of the Clinical and Translational Research Core Laboratory at Medical College of Wisconsin in Milwaukee, WI. He received his bachelor\u2019s degree in biology from the University of Colorado and his master\u2019s degree in neuroscience from Northwestern University where he spent time researching Alzheimer\u2019s Disease. He went on to receive both his MD and PhD in Cell and Structural Biology from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.\nThe Impact of Flexible Panel-Based Solutions for Pathogen Detection\nLive Event: Wednesday, November 7, 2018 | 1:00 - 2:00 PM EST\nPACE\u00ae credit available until May 7, 2019 | Florida Laboratory CE Credit available\nThe development of molecular testing methods for pathogen detection has led to improved sensitivity, specificity and turnaround time compared with traditional culture-based methods of analysis. However, current commercially available molecular tests can be limited by the number of set pathogenic markers. This means that if a result is not conclusive, additional testing may be required \u2013 leading to increased time to answer, and additional cost.\nPanel-based, syndromic approaches to pathogen detection can present numerous benefits to the clinical laboratory \u2013 including simplification in ordering, testing of multiple pathogens above and beyond the \u201cusual suspects\u201d, ease of use, rapid turnaround time, and reduced need to send-out samples to other laboratories.\nThis webinar will provide you with the knowledge to understand the economic and laboratory operational impact of using syndromic panels in pathogen detection, and how this type of testing can be implemented in the laboratory. Dr Schutzbank will lead a panel discussion of laboratories from around the world that have implemented flexible content syndromic testing for pathogen detection testing. To help illustrate specific case studies in this area, Dr Sandeep Mukherjee will then discuss the application of this in bacterial vaginitis investigations, and Dr Li will discuss how this can impact respiratory pathogen detection.\n\u2022 Discuss the impact of flexible content syndromic panels from a laboratory operational perspective\n\u2022 Describe how flexible content syndromic panels affects the number of reflex tests the laboratory due to test consolidation\n\u2022 Analyze the effects of flexible content syndromic panels on laboratory costs\nTed E.

This was compounded by a vaccine that did not appear to be as effective against that particular strain along with higher infant mortality and hospital admittance rates than had been predicted. As a result of the higher prevalence of illness, there was a shortage in the availability of rapid influenza tests which many clinics and physicians experienced.\nIn this P.A.C.E.\u00ae-accredited Fisher Healthcare webinar, Dr.Sally Hojvat will discuss the FDA's reclassification of rapid flu tests in detail.

Laboratories must become more efficient. One way is to apply the proven Lean principles in designing the way the work and the laboratory is structured.\nLean Manufacturing is based on principles that differ from the way histology has been organized and practiced over the years. It is based on small batches and limited inventory. The basics and the tools are easy to learn, with a slight adjustment in the way we think about organizing our work. By applying the thought process and some of the tools, many laboratories have made significant advances in their efficiency. It is quite possible to make a start with just the basic training and some clear thinking.\nThis webinar is designed to provide that training. It will review and redefine workflow in ways that will identify improvements, and identify and implement ways of making workflow more efficient.\n\u2022 Describe the basic principles underlying Lean workflow planning\n\u2022 Identify and discuss the tools of Lean Manufacturing\n\u2022 Apply these principles to the laboratory to improve efficiency, reduce costs, and reduce the risk of errors\nPeter Kilner\nGlobal Market Development Manager\nPeter Kilner is a Global Market Development Manager with Thermo Fisher Scientific.

Many laboratories are being asked to streamline sample collection products due to consolidation. In doing so, laboratories must strategically evaluate each sample to determine the best type of collection and transport system.\nTraditionally, swab samples are collected using dacron or rayon swabs which consist of yards of fiber wrapped around an applicator stick. Using these swabs much of the patient sample becomes trapped in the matrix of fiber. The result is that up to 90% of the sample stays with the swab and is unavailable for testing. Fiber wrapped swabs are also challenging to use on automated specimen processors without manual intervention.\nCurrently, after collecting the fecal sample, a quantity (typically 1-2 grams) of feces is placed into a transport media tube. This process can be unpleasant and messy. Traditional fecal containers are large and bulky and not ideal for streamlined collection, transport or automation.\nSputum is a challenging sample in the microbiology laboratory as it can be very viscous and difficult to manage. To liquefy for easier manual or automated specimen processing, liquefying solutions are often used. These reagents are mixed in large batches which may go to waste if not used within 48 hours.\nUrine containers come in a variety of different shapes and sizes. The vacuum style containers require the additional step of placing the sample into a more automation friendly container/tube.\nThis webinar will give an overview of these approaches and review published studies comparing the new technologies to gold-standard methods.\n\u2022 Identify the resources available to validate, convert and train users on Liquid Based Microbiology (LBM) products\n\u2022 Analyze clinical studies and impact of LBM products on microbiology laboratories across the world\n\u2022 Discuss LBM products and understand how they impact automation in clinical microbiology\nSusan Sharp, PhD., (D)ABMM, (F)AAM, MS, MT(ASCP)\nCopan Diagnostics, Inc.\nDr. Sharp received her B.S. in Medical Technology and her M.S. in Medical Microbiology & Biochemistry from the University of Nebraska Medical Center in Omaha, Nebraska.

She then did a 2-year post-doctorate fellowship in Clinical Microbiology in the Department of Pathology, Division of Microbiology, at Hartford Hospital in Hartford, Connecticut.\nConsiderations in UTI Detection and its Potential Impact on Antibiotic Stewardship\nLive Event: Tuesday, July 24, 2018 | 1:00 - 2:00 PM EDT\nUrinary tract infections (UTI) are a leading cause of health care visits. Consequently, urine specimens are one of the most frequent specimen types submitted to laboratories, yet the majority of specimens prove to be negative for UTI after evaluation by standard methods. Plate-based culturing remains the gold standard for UTI detection, requiring 24-48 hours before results are available. Urinalysis (UA) is an automated approach that provides more rapid results than standard culturing, but this method can suffer from poor sensitivity and specificity, resulting in the improper management of patient care.\nThere are newer technologies available today that improve our ability to detect UTI faster with higher specificity. These include mass spectrometry and a newly approved technology that uses laser light scatter to detect low density bacterial infection. By providing robust results in a shorter timeframe, the level of unnecessary administration of empiric antibiotics should be greatly reduced, facilitating antibiotic stewardship and, ultimately, improving patient care. This webinar will give an overview of these approaches and review published studies comparing the new technologies to gold-standard methods.\n\u2022 Describe the traditional and advanced diagnostic methods for UTI and their impact on patient diagnosis.\n\u2022 Examine the role urinary tract infections play in inappropriate antibiotic use and increasing antibiotic resistance.\n\u2022 Discuss the healthcare burden of UTIs in terms of dollars, time, and health outcomes Presenter:\nErin H.

This change placed additional requirements on influenza lateral flow assay manufactures. As a result,, some assays were removed from the market.\nThis change in influenza assay availability challenged some testing facilities to adjust their assay use, or to purchase excess inventory for the 2017/2018 influenza season. Now that the 2017/2018 influenza season has passed, testing facilities that did not implement an FDA-approved test will need determine their influenza testing plans for the 2018/2019 influenza season and beyond.\nThis educational webinar will review flu testing challenges faced during the 2017/2018 influenza season, including discussion on the management and mitigation of highly seasonal testing and a review of testing options for the 2018/2019 season. The session will also analyze the pros and cons of each type of influenza testing.\n\u2022 Review FDA Influenza Reclassification Requirements to provide understanding of changes following the January 2018 enforcement date\n\u2022 Identify the different types of influenza tests available, following FDA Influenza Reclassification\n\u2022 Analyze the pros and cons of each type of influenza testing\n\u2022 Discuss the 2017/2018 influenza season and lessons learned to prepare for future season Presenter:\nDirector, Molecular Diagnostics\nAssistant Director, Division of Infectious Disease Diagnostics\nDr. Berry is a Diplomate of the American Board of Medical Microbiology and an Assistant Professor of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine at the Donald and Barbara Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra/Northwell.

They can also be subjective leading to misinterpretation of results, take a long time resulting in reduced lab efficiency, and they have been shown to miss a significant percentage of positive cases. In fact, some studies show that almost 30% of positive cases are missed using culture-based methods\nA molecular alternative to culture-based methods, real-time PCR technology, increases specificity and sensitivity, with over 25% increased accuracy in urinary tract pathogen detection when compared to culture methods in under 5 hours. Real-time PCR in pathogen detection can identify slow-growing, difficult-to-cultivate microorganisms, and can be used when culture-based techniques are inadequate, ambiguous, time-consuming, difficult, and/or too costly. Clinical validation data demonstrated that when compared with urine specimen culture, real-time PCR detected 97% of samples where urinary tract pathogens were present, vs culture which detected only 71% of cases where pathogens were present.1\nThis webinar will compare molecular testing for urinary tract pathogen detection to traditional culture-based testing methods, examine the sensitivity, specificity and turnaround time of molecular testing techniques for UTI pathogen detection, and discuss the current impact of UTI\u2019s in the US and globally, including health economic impacts and how new testing methods can potentially impact laboratory efficiency.\n1For research use only.

C. difficile causes an inflammation of the colon that can lead to serious, life-threatening conditions, especially in immunocompromised or elderly patients. The problem is so widespread, C. difficile infection (CDI) is linked to more than 30,000 deaths a year in the United States \u2014 rivaling the 32,000 killed in traffic accidents.\nThe demands for C. difficile testing have continued to evolve over the last several years. While the focus had been increasingly on the need for highly accurate detection of the organism, there has been a renewed interest in the detection of the toxins that cause the disease. Colonized C. difficile carriers are 5-10 times more common than patients with active infections in hospitals. Treating carriers is often ineffective and increases the risk to the patient of developing C. difficile diarrhea.\nC. difficile infections pose a serious threat and require rapid clinical decisions. This webinar will review the 2017 IDSA/SHEA CDI guideline update treatment recommendations, describe how the 2017 IDSA/SHEA CDI guideline update recommendations on C. difficile diagnostics will apply to a patient population, and identify how the microbiology laboratory can assist in C. difficile infection prevention.\n\u2022 Review the 2017 IDSA/SHEA CDI guideline update treatment recommendations\n\u2022 Describe how the 2017 IDSA/SHEA CDI guideline update recommendations on C. difficile diagnostics will apply to a patient population\n\u2022 Identify how the microbiology laboratory can assist in C. difficile infection prevention\nErik Dubberke, MD\nAnti-Heparin Platelet Factor 4 Antibodies: Risking a Potentially Catastrophic Occurrence\nLive Event: Thursday, April 5, 2018 | 1:00 - 2:00 PM EDT\nPACE\u00ae credit available until October 4, 2018 | Florida Laboratory CE Credit available\nAs many as 5% of patients treated with heparin have an immune complex that is formed between Heparin and Platelet Factor 4 (PF4). These patients may develop Heparin Induced Thrombocytopenia (HIT), characterized by a low platelet count that can result in excessive bleeding or clotting. Of those diagnosed with HIT, 30% are at risk for death and 20% are at risk for limb amputation.\nCurrent testing for HIT can take several hours to several days for the results. During this time, patients requiring surgery must wait for the test results to determine if heparin can be administered, or they are given expensive direct thrombin inhibitors (DTI\u2019s) as a precautionary measure.\nThis webinar will describe the mechanism of interaction between heparin and platelet factor 4, review the chemistry of heparin, and identify the consequences of antibodies to Heparin Platelet Factor 4. It will also examine the testing methodology for the anti-Platelet Factor 4 Heparin antibody.\n\u2022 Describe the mechanism of interaction between Heparin and Platelet Factor 4\n\u2022 Review the chemistry of Heparin\n\u2022 Identify the consequences of antibodies to the Heparin Platelet Factor 4\n\u2022 Examine the testing methodology for the anti-Platelet Factor 4 Heparin anti-body\nMichael Warhol, MD\nPast President , Pennsylvania Association of Pathologists\nFellow of the American College of Pathology\nDr. Warhol received his undergraduate degree at Princeton University and his M.D. degree from the University of Pittsburgh.

Since the initial standard microbiological work-up fails to identify a definitive etiology in the majority of patients, most patients are continued on broad-spectrum antibiotics for the full duration of therapy. This empiric current antimicrobial approach exposes patients to more antimicrobials than necessary, eradicates a significant proportion of organisms belonging to the normal host flora (collateral damage), and selects for antimicrobial resistant pathogens.\nHowever, with advances of diagnostic tests (including immunochromatographic-based urinary antigen and molecular assays) which can identify respiratory pathogens of CAP earlier in the course of management and with the potential for identifying specific pathogens in a greater proportion of patients, it is now possible to provide early treatment with a narrower, focused antimicrobial regimen that targets the identified pathogens. In those who have been begun on broader coverage, antibiotics can be reduced or \u201cde-escalated.\u201d This pathogen-directed therapy will ultimately lead to a new paradigm of \u201ctargeted antimicrobial\u201d treatment that will permit selection of agents against a specific pathogen and substantially reduce exposure of individuals and hospitals to antimicrobial agents with decreased selection of antimicrobial resistance, cost, and adverse events.\n\u2022 List the differences between empirical and pathogen-directed therapy for community-acquired pneumonia\n\u2022 Review pathogens responsible for community-acquired pneumonia\n\u2022 Analyze the diagnostics and treatment options available for community-acquired pneumonia\n\u2022 Identify advantages of rapid diagnostic methods for community-acquired pneumonia\nThomas M.

Such information will alert physicians, hospital administrators, medical and laboratory directors, and public health agencies, and can enable preventive measures and/or improved patient care and management. Modern surveillance technology shows great promise in fulfilling this need by sending results in near real-time for influenza, RSV, and Strep A tests to the CDC, state departments of health, and healthcare organizations nation-wide.\nThis webinar will discuss recent technological advances that have afforded certain FDA-cleared rapid point of care instruments that aid in the diagnosis of infectious disease the capability to wirelessly convey near real-time results and transmit to public health agencies and organizations for use in de-identified surveillance and laboratory management. The utility for laboratory management, featuring quality control, training, resource management, and operator performance will be discussed, as will the impact of valid real-time data on the management of patients and the timely and appropriate use of antivirals and antibiotics. Promising new applications of data in developing enhanced disease forecasting and the benefits this promises for public health, healthcare systems, pharmacies and others will be also be considered.\n\u2022 Identify technology that allows certain FDA-cleared, rapid-POC testing instruments to wirelessly transmit to public authorities\n\u2022 Describe how labs can use the technology for quality control, training and resource management\n\u2022 Analyze the impact of valid real-time data on patient care management, including the use of antivirals and antibiotics\n\u2022 Discuss promising new applications of data to enhance disease forecasting and its benefits for various stakeholders\nJohn Tamerius, PhD\nSr. Vice President, Strategic and External Affairs, Quidel Corp.\nDr. John Tamerius graduated from the Univ. of Washington (Seattle, Washington) with a Ph.D. in Microbiology and Immunology.

While they tend to show good specificity, they can deliver less-than-optimal sensitivity in respiratory specimens compared to RT-PCR or viral culture.\nIn some cases (for example, the H1N1 flu strain in 2009) RIDTs may be unable to detect the virus at all. For this reason, negative RIDT test results should be interpreted with caution given the potential for false negative results - especially during peak flu season in a community.\nBased on these concerns, the FDA began work to reclassify antigen-based RIDTs as Class II devices in order to improve the overall quality of testing for influenza. The FDA has provided certain performance criteria that manufacturers will have to meet in order to market their influenza assays.\nWhat Does the FDA Reclassification Mean for RIDT Manufacturers?\nManufacturers must obtain a new 510(k) clearance and demonstrate compliance with the special controls included in the new clinical performance standards before marketing antigen-based RIDTs.\nWhat Does the FDA Reclass Mean for Physicians and Labs?\nFacilities testing for flu can still continue to purchase their current product up until January 12, 2018 and utilize them until the kit\u2019s expiration date. This provides facilities enough time to assess the performance data against the FDA criteria and engage clinicians and management on the next course of action for flu testing.\n\u2022 Describe the FDA reclassification of rapid immunoassay detection tests (RIDT\u2019s) for 2018\n\u2022 Discuss the reason for FDA\u2019s implementation of the new reclassification and how that impacts not only manufacturers but also the physician, the laboratory, and the patient\n\u2022 Identify the information RIDT users must have from manufacturers to determine whether or not their current testing meets the reclassification Presenter:\nSally Hojvat holds an MSc in Microbiology/ Food Science from the University of Alberta and a PhD in Biochemistry from Loyola University. She has completed post-doctorate work in clinical chemistry and pharmacology, worked for the FDA, and has extensive experience working for a major international IVD manufacturer.\nGet the Most Out Of Barcoding In Your Pathology Laboratory\nLive Event: Wednesday, October 25, 2017 | 1:00 - 2:00 PM EST\nBarcoding is used everywhere in our culture today to prevent errors. In laboratories, barcoding has become an evidence based \u201cbest practice\u201d for reducing errors and improving productivity where up to 70% of all errors occur in the pre- and post-analytic phases. Besides improving productivity, barcoding opens up many new opportunities to utilize the embedded data downstream through multiple stages up to and including long-term storage and archiving.\nThis webinar will offer a practical approach to implementing a barcoding solution to meet the needs of your individual laboratory for protecting the integrity of patients\u2019 specimens. With US Healthcare moving from a Fee-for-Service model to a Value-Based system, laboratories must implement ways of improving quality outcomes. The additional benefit barcoding delivers is an improvement in productivity and reduction, to the point of elimination of non-value added tasks. Barcoding utilized along with lean processes has also been proven to reduce labeling errors to near zero in pathology laboratories.\n\u2022 Describe how reimbursement impacts technology utilization in the laboratory\n\u2022 Differentiate between linear and 2D barcodes and how each captures patient data\n\u2022 Review techniques labs employ to adapt barcoding to their varying sizes and budgets\n\u2022 Illustrate the ways in which barcoding affects a pathology laboratory's workflow and productivity\nLoretta Sayles\nSayles Lab Consulting\nLoretta Sayles has spent the past 30 plus years working in the anatomic pathology laboratory arena in several different aspects of our business. She currently is the Managing Director of Sayles Lab Consulting which focuses on helping labs improve their quality while understanding the challenging healthcare market. Loretta is very active in Histotechnology on both the national and state level and has been recognized for her dedication to the field.\nThe Journey to Realizing the Promise of Precision Medicine\nCurrently, clinical labs are doing sequential, single-analyte testing in oncology which exhausts precious patient samples and extends the turnaround time to results. Clinicians can wait for as long as two to three weeks to get a result. And, if the sample is insufficient for molecular testing, patients can be subject to expensive and painful rebiopsies. Pathologists and other clinicians need a better, faster way to consolidate their molecular testing into a single assay and get results within a week.\nThis webinar will show how Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) is helping labs save precious samples and provide rapid results. It will review the updates on the NCI-MATCH clinical trial for adult cancers and the development of a gene panel specific to pediatric cancers, and it will discuss a laboratory's implementation of next-generation sequencing for cancer clinical research.\n\u2022 Review the updates on the NCI-MATCH clinical trial for adult cancers and the development of a gene panel specific to pediatric cancers\n\u2022 Analyze the effects of next-generation sequencing on the speed of results from the clinical/pathology lab to oncologists to minimize the need for a painful and expensive rebiopsy\n\u2022 Discuss a laboratory's implementation of next-generation sequencing for cancer clinical research\nTimothy Triche, MD, PhD, Pathologist; Co-Director, Center for Personalized Medicine Program (CPM) Professor of Pathology and Pediatrics, USC Keck School of Medicine\nMickey Williams, PhD\nDirector, Molecular Characterization Laboratory, National Cancer Institute\nBarbara A.

This can lead to a delay in appropriate treatment and sometimes overtreatment with antibiotics Both the clinical presentation and diagnostic tests are required to manage therapy. Timely, informed decisions can be made with the assistance of biomarkers. With the recently FDA approved claim extensions of Procalcitonin (PCT) clinicians now have an additional tool to help direct antibiotic therapy. This can result in reduced antibiotic usage, reduced time in ICU reducing the costs incurred by both patients and healthcare systems while improving clinical outcomes.\nThis webinar will provide a thorough understanding on how biomarkers are used in systemic bacterial infections and Lower Respiratory Tract Infections (LRTI) and the laboratory\u2019s role in helping direct patient therapy. It will analyze PCT as an infection biomarker with a review of the recently approved FDA claims and discuss the clinical application of the biomarker using case studies for LRTI and Sepsis.\nThis webinar will::\n\u2022 Identify the various biomarkers used to assess systemic infections\n\u2022 Discuss PCT as an infection biomarker with a review of the recently approved FDA claims\n\u2022 Define the role of PCT in the context of antibiotic stewardship\n\u2022 Describe the clinical application of the biomarker using case studies for LRTI and Sepsis\nEric Gluck MD, FCCP JD\nDirector, Critical Care Services\nDr. Gluck is a Professor of Medicine at Finch University of Health Sciences/The Chicago Medical School in North Chicago.

Approximately 90% of CD patients are not yet diagnosed. 36% of CD patients are incorrectly diagnosed with irritable bowel syndrome. The incidence of CD has increased from 5.2 per 100,000 persons in 1990 to 19.1 in 2010. Differentiation is critical since a gluten restricted diet is a burden for the patient and family.\nWheat is a grass, and one of the most common causes of food allergen sensitization in children. Some grass sensitized children can be misdiagnosed as wheat allergic who are recommended a wheat-free diet as whole wheat extract tests often show sensitization due to cross-reactivity between wheat and grass components e.g. profilin and CCD. Wheat is an ingredient in processed foods other than bakery products, for instance in beer which may elicit symptoms in allergen sensitized patients.\nThis session will present an update of our current understanding of the three main forms of reactions to wheat and its byproducts including gluten: allergic (wheat allergy), autoimmune (celiac disease) and intolerance (gluten sensitivity). The speakers cover testing cascades to differentiate patients efficiently, as well as the laboratory efficiency gains by processing these tests on a single automated platform.\n\u2022 Discuss the prevalence, symptoms, and characteristics of three \"gluten\"- related disorders\n\u2022 Examine the reasons why \"Non-celiac Gluten Sensitivity (NCGS)\" is still a vague umbrella term encompassing distinct populations of patients\n\u2022 Identify the patients who would benefit from testing\n\u2022 Assess specific testing cascades to assist the clinician in the differentiation between \"gluten\"- related disorders\nStefano Guandalini, MD, is an internationally recognized expert on celiac disease.

In spite of the significant size of the affected population, there is a lack of awareness among CLIA labs for a multi-pathogen solution for screening vaginal microbiota. Current culture based methods for vaginal and urogenital microbiota lack sensitivity and specificity, and are subjective as well as inaccurate. Current molecular methods for bacterial vaginitis can have a high cost per sample, lack of flexibility in content and pathogenic targets, and are not amenable to centralized testing. Tests that are neither flexible in content, low cost per sample, nor sensitive enough to detect vaginal and urogenital microbiota can lead to further testing in order to get a finite answer for bacterial vaginitis investigations.\nThis webinar will discuss the increased sensitivity and specificity required for vaginal microbiota and pathogen investigations. It will also review the role of both pathogenic and commensal microbiota involved in urogenital infections, and identify the methods to detect a broad range of vaginal microbiota from a single sample quickly, and efficiently.\n\u2022 Review the role of both pathogenic and commensal microbiota involved in urogenital infections\n\u2022 Identify the methods to detect a broad range of vaginal microbiota from a single sample quickly, and cost effectively\n\u2022 Discuss the practical application of the detection of a broad range of vaginal microbiota from a single sample\nDon Stalons, PhD\nDirector, Clinical Laboratory, Diatherix\nCSO of Quantigen Laboratory in Fishers, IN\nJeffrey Shaman, PhD\nDirector of Business Dev.\nCoriell Life Sciences\nCase Studies in Vaginitis\nLive Event: Friday, March 31, 2017 | 2:00 - 3:00 PM EST\nVaginitis is one of the most common gynecologic disorders seen in primary care It is a disorder that accounts for 10 million office visits and up to 7 percent of visits made to gynecologists. Although generally not regarded as a serious condition, it nevertheless has significant consequences in terms of pain and discomfort, days loss from work and school, sexual functioning, and altered self-esteem. In addition, over one billion dollars a year are spent on OTC medications and physician visits for this diagnosis.\nThis webinar will provide clinicians with a practical diagnostic approach to the patient presenting to the office with a vaginal discharge. In addition to helping the clinicians differentiate normal from abnormal, the webinar will also illustrate how integration of clues from the history and physical findings with skillful use of the office laboratory is essential for making an accurate diagnosis. This webinar will also address current challenges in diagnosing trichomonas and candida infections and review the effective management of common vaginal infections.\n\u2022 Describe a differential diagnosis of the patient presenting with a vaginal discharge.\n\u2022 Analyze the role of the office laboratory in diagnosing vaginitis.\n\u2022 Identify the three most common causes of vaginitis and discuss the effective management of each.\nDr. Quan is Professor of Clinical Family Medicine and Vice Chair for Academic Affairs, Department of Family Medicine, David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA and is also Director, Office of Continuing Medical Education.

Yet, archiving tissue paraffin blocks, retrieving them when necessary and then re-archiving them back into their original filed positions utilizes manpower resources. An estimated 3000 manual work hours are spent annually for a laboratory that processes 100,000 tissue blocks per year.1\nMore importantly, the traceability and accountability of tissue blocks are critical components to patient management. The risk of delay of diagnosis when tissue blocks go missing can lead to anxiety for the patient and the laboratory staff. In addition, lost tissue blocks can result in even more serious issues including risk of litigation and harmed reputation. As serious as lost patient diagnostic pathology slides can be, lost paraffin blocks are even more significant since any hope of retrieving a viable patient sample is lost forever.2\nThe purpose of this webinar is to review tissue block archiving guidelines in the US and other countries throughout Europe. It will review the past and current practice for archiving tissue blocks at Dr. Costes-Martineau\u2019s laboratory at Montpellier University Teaching Hospital. And lastly, it will offer recommendations on best practices towards achieving overall improvement in tissue block archiving practices.\n1Montpellier University Teaching Hospital, Montpellier, France\n2Testing Biopsy & Cytology Specimens for Cancer, www.Cancer.org\n\u2022 Review tissue block archiving guidelines in the US and discuss how these regulations compare to those in other countries throughout Europe.\n\u2022 Examine how one laboratory achieved time-savings while improving compliance with their tissue block archiving system.\n\u2022 Identify best practices towards improving your laboratory\u2019s efficiency in tissue block archiving.\nPr.

RA is a chronic, systemic inflammatory disorder affecting approximately 1.3 to 2.6 million (0.5 - 1%) adults, and 294,000 children in the US1. In nearby Canada, researchers found an incidence of 2 and 5 cases per 1000 residents, with prevalence in women over 45 close\nto 1%2.\nThe cause of RA is unknown and there is no cure, however early treatment can help prevent irreversible joint damage, premature death, disability, and raise the patient\u2019s quality of life3. In many geographic regions access to specialty care is limited. The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) considers access to rheumatologists, and particularly, pediatric rheumatologists as one of their top 8 concerns.\nExpanded management of patients is challenging in that the diagnosis is formed using established medical guidance criteria including the combination of physical exam, serologic testing and imaging. Understanding serologic test selection and interpretation can improve qualified referrals to help meet demand for specialty care. This webinar will address evidence-based approaches described in the American college of Rheumatology Guidelines for the diagnosis and management of Rheumatoid Arthritis.\n\u2022 Review evidence-based approaches described in the American college of Rheumatology Guidelines for the diagnosis and management of Rheumatoid Arthritis\n\u2022 Discuss the importance of specificity in test selection, and optimal usage of two recommended serologic markers for RA, Anti-CCP and Rheumatoid Factor IgM\n\u2022 Analyze how test efficacy and disease prevalence impact result accuracy, and timely consultation or referral to a rheumatologist for patients in whom there is a high index of suspicion of RA\n1 Helmick CG, Felson DT, Lawrence RC, et al.

The in-hospital mortality rate due to sepsis is 16%, which is nearly 8 times higher than the average inpatient mortality rate, and adversely impacts clinical outcomes for hospitals.\nSepticemia is the second highest 30-day Medicare readmission diagnoses, resulting in 92,900 readmissions. Sepsis is the most expensive inpatient diagnosis with over $23B in aggregate hospital costs, accounting for 5.2% of all costs, but only 2.8% of discharges.\nThis webinar will help participants assess whether their current biomarker choices provide their clinicians with optimal clinical effectiveness. Procalcitonin (PCT) is a biomarker of the host's response to a systemic bacterial infection. The webinar will illustrate how PCT provides rapid insight on the severity of bacterial infection, the risk of progression to sepsis, and the risk of mortality.\nThis webinar will also review currently available biomarkers used for infectious disease diagnosis, sepsis, and septic shock.\n\u2022 Review currently available biomarkers used for infectious disease diagnosis, sepsis and septic shock\n\u2022 Compare and contrast common biomarkers to determine which marker or group of markers can provide clinicians with effective clinical information\n\u2022 Discuss the role of Procalcitonin (PCT) in sepsis management\nMike Broyles, BSPharm, PharmD,\nDir.

Interest in PBM has grown rapidly throughout the world as new evidence demonstrates a strong association between transfusion and a variety of healthcare care complications (infections, pulmonary injury, and mortality). Reducing transfusion exposure in hospitals has the dual benefit of significantly reducing costs while improving safety and outcomes.\nPBM programs often utilize a variety of resources and technologies to optimize blood management, including point-of-care testing. Point-of-care Hemoglobin testing has been widely used in hospitals and published in the literature as an evidence based strategy to support transfusion management. This webinar will focus on practical applications of POCT Hgb to improve the recognition and management of anemia, support the paradigm shift of RBC transfusion as single units with reassessment, and optimize transfusion decision making in the anemic or bleeding patient.\n\u2022 Describe how optimal transfusion practice and patient blood management can result in reduced health care costs and improved patient outcomes\n\u2022 Define how point-of-care Hemoglobin testing can improve recognition/management of anemia and transfusion decision making in the bleeding patient\n\u2022 Examine the paradigm shift of RBC transfusion as single units with reassessment\nClick here to learn more about Fisher HealthCare's solutions for Patient Blood Management.

These numbers are likely underestimates of true infections due to the challenges of traditional diagnostic methods. The current gold standard for Giardia and Cryptosporidium detection is conventional microscopy, which is time consuming, requires expert technical skills, and is relatively insensitive. Additionally, Cryptosporidium diagnosis requires special staining methods that may or may not be considered by the ordering physician, potentially leading to missed diagnoses of cryptosporidiosis.\nManufacturers are continually improving upon diagnostic assays to enhance identification and detection of Giardia and Cryptosporidium, resulting in a more accurate number of cases reported, better diagnosis of true infections, and improved patient care.\n\u2022 Discuss giardiasis and cryptosporidiosis disease and epidemiology\n\u2022 Identify the strengths and weaknesses of gold standard methods\n\u2022 Describe current diagnostic methods for detecting Giardia and Cryptosporidium in clinical specimens\n\u2022 Review the impact these advanced methodologies have on improving diagnosis\nClick here to learn more about Fisher HealthCare's Cryptosporidium and Giardia Testing solutions.\nShelley Miller, PhD, D (ABMM)\nClinical Instructor, UCLA\nDr. Shelley Miller completed a medical microbiology and public health postdoctoral fellowship at UCLA and became board certified by the American Board for Medical Microbiology.

Nearly 29.1 million children and adults are living with diabetes in the U.S., and nearly 8.1 million (27.8%) Americans remain undiagnosed.1 Additionally, approximately 26 million Americans have kidney disease and are unaware of their condition.2\nDiabetes poses a significant clinical burden to patients. Left untreated, serious complications can occur including heart disease, stroke, kidney failure, blindness, lower-limb amputation and pregnancy complications. According to the International Journal of Nephrology (IJN)3, Cardiorenal Syndrome (CRS) is the umbrella term used to describe clinical conditions in which cardiac and renal dysfunctions coexist whereby \u201cacute or chronic dysfunction in one organ may induce acute or chronic dysfunction of the other.\u201d A number of laboratory tests such as HbA1c, BNP, NT-proBNP, Albumin and Creatinine can assist clinicians in the management of this syndrome.\nGiven the continued rise of diabetes in the U.S., healthcare professionals need to be well-informed about Cardiorenal Syndrome, its pathophysiology, its connection with diabetes and understand the latest recommended guidelines for diagnosis and treatment.\n\u2022 Discuss the nature of Cardiorenal Syndrome and its pathophysiology connection with diabetes\n\u2022 Review the prevalence of diabetes and kidney diseases in the U.S.\n\u2022 Examine the latest guidelines from leading research groups on this topic\n\u2022 Apply learnings to Cardiorenal Syndrome case studies\nClick here to learn more about Fisher HealthCare's Diabetes Testing solutions.\nNancy Haley PhD\nDr. Haley has published over 150 articles in peer reviewed journals and has written over 15 chapters in educational texts.

Bell is best known as co-founder and frontman of the metal band Fear Factory.[1] His singing style mixes clean and shouted vocals with death growls.\nMain article: Fear Factory\nPrior to his role in Fear Factory, Bell was in the band Hate Face. In 1989 after Hateface disbanded, his housemate Dino Cazares invited him to meet a drummer (Raymond Herrera) to possibly work with. On October 31, 1990, Bell, Cazares, Herrera and Romero jammed for the first time in a studio in South Central L.A.. The group recorded four studio albums before Fear Factory disbanded temporarily in 2002. The band reformed in 2004 with Christian Olde Wolbers switching from bass to guitar and Byron Stroud on bass. This line-up recorded two albums. During the following period of inactivity within the band, Cazares and Bell patched up their differences, and in 2009 decided to have Fear Factory return to form.\nBurton C. Bell is the only member to have appeared on every Fear Factory release.\nIn 2012, Burton and Dino received the Revolver Golden Gods Icon award.[2]\nMain article: Ascension of the Watchers\nAfter Fear Factory's hiatus in 2002, Bell went on to form Ascension of the Watchers with John Bechdel at Bechdel's studio in Mifflinburg, PA. The Watchers released an online only selling EP entitled Iconoclast in 2005. On February 19, 2008, Ascension of the Watchers released their first full-length album Numinosum.\nBell has performed guest vocals on many records in addition to taking lead vocal duties for G/Z/R's Plastic Planet album released in 1995.[3] Due to commitments with Fear Factory, Bell was not the vocalist for G/Z/R's second album, Black Science.\nBurton recorded a track for UK metal band This Is Menace, the track was then cut out of the final edit from the album No End In Sight. Burton performed live in the encore segments of the Ministry 2008 Tour singing songs such as Stigmata, Thieves and So What taking over vocal duties from Al Jourgensen. Burton has joined with Byron Stroud to form City of Fire who released their debut album in August 2009.\nBurton featured on Delain's 2012 album We Are The Others, providing vocals for the track \"Where is the Blood\".[4]\nBurton was featured on Chris Vrenna's project Tweaker on the song \"I am The One\", intended to appear on the album The Attraction to All Things Uncertain.

He decided to change his name in order to gets parts on his own merits, rather than because of the name Coppola.\nHis first starring role was in the 1983 movie Valley Girl. The 1980s were great to Nicolas Cage. He appeared in no less than a dozen movies, including the one most may remember him for; Moonstruck. In fact, he was one of the only performers in Moonstruck to NOT receive an Oscar nomination. Both Cher and Olympia Dukakis won Oscars for their roles in Moonstruck.\nNicolas Cage morphed into the most bankable action star of the 1990s. Remember Con Air, The Rock, Face/Off and Gone In 60 Seconds?\nThe first decade of the 00s proved somewhat disappointing, when it came to the movie box office for Nicolas Cage. He appeared in a number of bombs; Captain Corelli\u2019s Mandolin, Windtalkers, Matchstick Men, Weather Man, The Wicker Man and World Trade Center.\nBut towards the end of the decade, with Ghost Rider, Knowing and the National Treasure movies, as well as the upcoming sequels to Ghost Rider and National Treasure, it seems Nicolas Cage is here to stay \u2013 and, maybe, for his 2012 big screen performance in the starring role of the big screen movie The Courtship Of Eddie\u2019s Father, earn his second Oscar.\nAlthough, his 2010 Disney flick The Sorcerer\u2019s Apprentice bombed at the worldwide movie box office, so do stay tuned.\nDrive Angry Trailer\nStarring: Nicolas CageAmber HeardWilliam FichtnerDavid MorseBilly BurkeChrista CampbellJack McGeeTom AtkinsTodd FarmerCharlotte Ross\nGenres: ActionCrimeFantasyThriller\nStudio: Sum.\nDrive Angry Posters and Photos\nInterested in Drive Angry?

Each of us has our own unique history and our own personal world view. Our world view includes our individual beliefs about why things are the way they are and why they work the way they do. Because each of us is different, we express ourselves and do things in our own unique way. We also interpret what others say and do in our own unique way. These differences in expression and understanding make us who we are. But they also can lead to misunderstandings.\nThe goal of mediation is to resolve these misunderstandings by focusing on the participants' different points of view. For example, suppose you sit down next to a fellow bus passenger and make a comment about the weather, and suppose he or she just nods, gets up and moves away. You might think, \"What an unfriendly jerk!\" But your fellow passenger might simply be preoccupied, or worried about missing his or her stop. You might be hurt or offended, while he or she might be completely unaware of having caused offense. Neither of you is right or wrong. You simply understood the interaction differently.\nIf a misunderstanding isn't serious or important, we brush it off and forget about it. But when it is serious or important, and when it happens with a family member or a friend, it isn't so easy to ignore or to move on. A simple (or not so simple!) misunderstanding may become a full blown argument. It may lead to disagreements about other things and cause emotional upsets. If unresolved, these disagreements may go on for years, and may escalate into complete rifts among family members or friends or others with whom we regularly interact.\n\u201cYou don't know where you're going until you examine where you have been.\u201d\n\u2014Leslie Wilsher, Founder\nWhen a loved one dies, family members and friends express grief in different ways. Emotions are raw; and things that may have remained under the surface for years rise to the surface. Relationships are pushed to their extremes. Old family patterns \u2013 resentments, jealousies, competitions, coercions \u2013 come to the fore. Probate mediation, or estate mediation, gives family members a chance to express these stresses and to address them in a way that formal court proceedings cannot.\nWhen a couple undergoes divorce or separation, or experiences some other stressful situation, the entire family can be thrown into turmoil. Emotions are near the surface; and family members can easily feel overwhelmed by all the tasks necessary to get through the divorce, separation or other stressful situation. Divorce mediation, separation mediation, matrimonial mediation and family mediation provide a forum in which couples can focus on what is important in getting through the divorce, separation or other stressful process, instead of getting bogged down in litigation.\nAt Wilsher Mediation we provide a safe, confidential environment in which each individual can express himself or herself more fully, have an opportunity to share his or her perspective. We bring that individual perspective into focus, giving others the opportunity to understand it better. Through better understanding and appreciation of each individual's unique viewpoint, we enhance communication, making it possible to seek solutions in a way that is more satisfactory to everyone involved.",

        "raw_content": "Hands-on with Spider-Man 2 for Windows Phone\nThe Amazing Spider-Man 2 movie has already started playing in theaters and its official game can now be purchased at the Window Phone Store. At $4.99, it\u2019s one of the more expensive games at the store and there is no free trial available. Is the Spider-Man 2 game worth it? Watch our gameplay video after the break to find out.\nBefore you buy, we should warn you that we\u2019ve had problems opening Spider-Man 2 on our Nokia Lumia Icon and Lumia 1520 running Windows Phone 8.1 Preview for Developers. It opens only after rebooting our devices, and sometimes would not re-open when switching apps. On the other hand, it works fine on our Samsung ATIV SE running Windows Phone 8.0.\nWeb-sling, wall-climb and web-shoot as the fast and quick-witted Spider-Man.\nExplore in a large open-world Manhattan with 6 detailed districts to explore from Times Square to Central Park.\n6 legendary villains including Venom, the Green Goblin, Electro, and Kraven the Hunter.\nIntense combo-focused combat. Defeat enemies from street thugs to super villains.\nIf you\u2019re lucky to get it to work on your device, Spider-Man 2 is actually fun to play. Tap the jump button on the bottom right corner for quick bursts in the air. Press and hold the same button to web-sling. This works really well, and it feels cool doing it in the game. Since it is a large open world, you can just keep slinging around if you like. The directional pad is on the left side of the display. Looking around requires you to move your finger on the right side of the display.\nCity problems show up as red dots on the maps. Problems include robberies, car thefts, people falling from rooftops, and more. The more problems Spidey solve, the more fame he earns. Important events (blue dots on the map) show up when his fame reaches milestones. You\u2019ll earn points along the way, which you can use to upgrade skills or buy things from the shop like additional suits or items such as potions to restore health.\nSome problems require certain skills to be solved. For example, one of the rescue missions requires Spider-Man to upgrade one of his strengths. If you don\u2019t have enough points to upgrade, you\u2019ll have to continue solving smaller problems until you get enough points, or you can use real money to buy points. 2,500 points cost $1.99 while 160,000 points cost $99.99.\nMany of the city problems require fighting thugs. You\u2019ll be fine, as long as you keep smashing the melee and web buttons on the right. When the spider-sense shows up, it means you\u2019re about to get hit. Click the counter button when that happens. Other times, you\u2019ll be required to do certain gestures on the screen. This includes tapping rapidly, or swiping at the right moments. Fighting villains are similar, except they take longer to beat. We rather not spoil how to beat the villains.\nWhile we have issues opening Spider-Man 2 on our devices with Windows Phone 8.1, it\u2019s actually very fun to play when it works. Web-slinging around the city is smooth for the most part, but we definitely notice choppiness in the gameplay when fighting several thugs at the same time. It\u2019s noticeable even on the top-of the line Nokia Lumia Icon and Lumia 1520.\nSpider-Man 2 costs $4.99 at the Windows Phone Store. The initial version from Gameloft does not include a free trial. Are you buying this game? Let us know in the comments!",

        "raw_content": "Your Binge-Watching Is Making the Planet Warmer\nYou recycle. You ride your bike to work. You bring your own bags to the grocery. You might think you're a good environmentalist. But those cat videos, TED talks, and Netflix original series you watch to unwind might be slowly killing the planet.\nThat's the word from Greenpeace's latest Clicking Clean report, which evaluates the clean energy initiatives of many different internet companies.\nWhile we're used to thinking about our environmental impact in terms of how much trash we throw out, how much we drive, and how much electricity we use in our homes, the report highlights the ways that our internet usage has environmental effects that we never see.\nData center emissions account for small percentage of global emissions, Greenpeace information technology analyst Gary Cook tells us. That's not much compared to 14 percent that goes towards agriculture or the 13 percent that goes to transportation. But data center emissions are growing by at least 13 percent per year, Cook says. And within two years, information technology in general, including manufacturing servers and other gear, is expected to be to account for between seven and 12 percent of all electrical use, according the report.\nData centers are expected to account for about 21 percent of that usage, mostly because of the explosive demand for streaming video. Cook explains that even though streaming can offset some emissions, such as the manufacture and delivery of DVDs or BluRay disks, the convenience of streaming is leading us to consume more content. Instead of buying a few videos and watching them again and again, we're now binge-watching entire seasons of shows in a sitting, which ends up creating a bigger carbon footprint overall.\nThis trend extends to other industries as well. For example, according to the report, publishers now consume more energy as a result of their data center usage than they did through their use of printing presses.\nThere is good news in the report. Amazon, which hosts Netflix's streaming service, and which has long been the tech industry's renewable energy straggler, has finally pledged to go green. Apple has continued to adopt more green energy since Greenpeace singled out the company in 2011. In its latest report, the organization gave Apple \"A\" ratings in all four categories that it tracks: energy transparency; renewable energy commitment; energy efficiency; and renewable energy deployment and advocacy.\nIn fact, most major consumer-facing Internet companies are now working towards using nothing but renewables. Business-to-business companies, such as colocation providers that rent data center space, are lagging behind, though Equinix, one of the largest in the country, has pledged to switch to all-renewable power. But any company seeking to ramp up its use of renewables is likely to run into a common problem: they need more electricity to meet rising demand for their services than they can get in a renewable form from utilities.\n'The IT sector has been very disruptive figuring out how to change pieces of the economy. If the industry works together it can resist the economic power of the energy sector.'\nGary Cook, Greenpeace\nAccording to the report, many energy utilities, which generally have monopolies in their areas, only offer coal-generated power, or only sell renewable energy at a premium, despite renewable energy becoming as cheap, if now cheaper, than coal power in some cases.\nThat's a big problem in Virginia, which sees as much as 70 percent of global internet traffic pass through its borders every day, and North Carolina, another hotbed for data centers.\nCompanies can seek more renewable power by building new data centers in states where more renewable energy is available, such as Iowa and Oregon, but Cook says it's unrealistic to expect companies to move all of their existing data centers out of Virginia and North Carolina. That means these companies will need to work with activists and policy makers to pressure utility companies into making changes, he says.\n\"The IT sector has been very disruptive figuring out how to change pieces of the economy,\" he says. \"If the industry works together it can resist the economic power of the energy sector.\"",

        "raw_content": "'Ninja,' the Fortnite streamer who's one of video gaming's biggest stars\nAny year in which a young man earns a living playing video games is a pretty darn good one. For 27-year-old ...\nUpdated: Jan. 1, 2019 11:48 AM\nAny year in which a young man earns a living playing video games is a pretty darn good one. For 27-year-old Tyler Blevins, aka Ninja, 2018 was the best year of his life, he told CNN in a recent interview.\nAnd who could argue? Ninja is, literally, killing it. The 94,958 Fornite kills he had racked up at last check have helped him earn what he says is close to $10 million this year. Blevins and his colorful hair (neon red at the time of this interview) have become a cultural phenomenon, and his skills and personality have helped make Fortnite the behemoth that it is \u2014 one that drove its company, Epic Games, to a reported profit of $3 billion this year.\nBlevins burst onto the scene after a record-breaking live stream (628,000 concurrent viewers, a record which he's since broken) with rap icon Drake back in March. Since then he has become a must-see on social media and more importantly, a must-stream. Ninja's \"bread and butter,\" he says, are YouTube and Twitch, a streaming video platform. He estimates 70% of his income comes from the two services.\nEvery time one of Ninja's 20-million plus YouTube subscribers watches a pop-up ad on his channel he earns a percentage of the ad sale, and most of Ninja's videos on YouTube have been viewed millions of times. On Twitch, more than 12.5 million users follow him, and almost 40,000 pay to watch, subscribing to three different tiers and forking over either $4.99, $9.99 or $25 per month to watch Ninja blast his way to big bucks. Because users don't have to subscribe, ad dollars help the platform and its streamers make money too. Still, Blevins thinks Twitch \"could do a much better job incentivizing\" people to choose the pricier subscriptions; he compared Twitch to a giant \"violin case\" for a street performer, with people just throwing in what they feel is right.\nThe rest of Blevins' income is from sponsors like Samsung, Uber Eats and Red Bull. And those sponsors, along with Ninja's September appearance on the cover of ESPN The Magazine, lead to a major question about him and his peers in the burgeoning esports community: Are they athletes? Blevins said he sees himself instead as a small business owner, equating gaming to a small coffee shop. \"They're gonna find another coffee shop if you're not there ... you have to be there all the time,\" he said.\nNinja mans that \"coffee shop\" for 12 hours a day, he estimates, working out to nearly 4,000 hours of Fornite this year alone, the equivalent of more than 140 days. Each and every time he's away from the shop, Blevins and wife/manager Jess are calculating how many subscribers they're losing, and how much money they're not earning. While the couple does carve out time for one another each day, their last vacation was their honeymoon eight years ago. And even that trip, long before Fornite, was still cut short for professional gaming.\nFornite has 200 million registered players around the world, a 60% increase since June, and Blevins says he thinks it's nowhere near peaking. No matter how long its popularity lasts, Blevins is enjoying his moment in the sun. He appeared on \"The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon\" earlier this month, and has recently been moving into other revenue streams, like a clothing brand and music. He's released a rap album called \"Ninjawerks\" and \"Fortnite Rap Battle,\" a compilation video in which he stars, has been viewed nearly 80 million times on YouTube.\nWhile parents are watching the ball drop on New Year's Eve, Ninja will be capping off the best year of his life. As Fortnite fans wait for the battle bus, he'll be streaming on his Twitch page in front of an invite-only audience in Times Square, going from 4 p.m. ET to 4 a.m. ET in what he promises will be an \"epic, cool, incredible time\" \u2014 or just another day at the office for one of the hottest gamers on the planet.\nDrake and Ninja's 'Fortnite' battle sets a new Twitch record\nVideo game stocks get crushed as Fortnite reigns\nCelebrities suing 'Fortnite' over dance moves\nAn American Ninja Warrior shows off Boise\nRevealing your biggest fears\nHeadset maker's stock up 700% on 'Fortnite' mania\nNBA All-Star Game Fast Facts",

But closer to home, in Fletcher, the same caliber of design is applied to a different kind of transport. You could say Cane Creek Cycling Components makes parts for the BMWs of the bike world, and its proving ground is the trail rather than the track.\nCane Creek has something of an unusual backstory: In the early 1970s, Japanese company Dia-Compe opened a bike parts factory in Fletcher because it was a central East Coast location, convenient to the major U.S. bike manufacturers at the time. In 1991, the factory\u2019s employees bought it out and changed the brand name, and soon after, the company made important advancements in bike suspension. Cane Creek patented a design for a threadless headset\u2014a key set of bicycle components that helps the front wheel rotate\u2014which revolutionized cycling, says Holly Colson, the company\u2019s director of marketing. Named the Aheadset, this equipment makes it possible for bikes to be lighter, stronger, more adaptable, and easier to steer. The company also improved shock absorption technology by borrowing ideas from motor sports and applying them to bikes.\nEarly on, Colson says, Cane Creek decided to make only top-of-the-market components, and its hundreds of parts can often be found on bikes that run in the $6,000 to $10,000 range. Europe\u2014particularly Germany, where meticulous engineering is strongly valued\u2014is the leading market for Cane Creek. (Later this year, high-performance Ghost bikes from Germany, outfitted with the company\u2019s components, will be available in the U.S. at REI stores.) But Cane Creek components aren\u2019t just for bikes used by elite athletes; all sorts of riders use the company\u2019s cantilever brakes and brake levers on their time trial, road, flatbar, and cyclocross bikes.\nCane Creek has a new CEO, David Hall (formerly the company\u2019s director of operations), recently added its 50th employee, and plans to double its workforce over the next four years. Last year, the company was named one of Outside magazine\u2019s Top 100 Best Places to Work in recognition of its distinct culture, which includes daily bike rides at lunch and opportunities to test new products out on the many local trails. \u201cWe tend to attract people who are passionate about cycling,\u201d says Colson.\nThe right people, place, and products seem to be the winning formula for a manufacturer in the mountains that has beaten the odds and continues to thrive.\n355 Cane Creek Rd., Fletcher",

        "raw_content": "Section 5: Mathematical Constants\nMost methods for computing mathematical constants progressively generate each additional digit. But following work by Simon Plouffe and others in 1995 it became clear that it is sometimes possible to generate, at least with overwhelming probability, the nth digit without explicitly finding previous ones. As an example, the nth digit of Log[2] in base 2 is formally given by Round[FractionalPart[2n Sum[2-k/k,{k,\u221e}]]]. And in practice the nth digit can be found just by computing slightly over n terms of the sum, according to\nRound[FractionalPart[Sum[FractionalPart[PowerMod[2,n-k,k]/k],{k,n}]+ Sum[2n-k/k,{k,n+1,n+d}]]]\nwhere several values of d can be tried to check that the result does not change. (Note that with finite-precision arithmetic, some exponentially small probability exists that truncation of numbers will lead to incorrect results.) The same basic approach as for Log[2] can be used to obtain base 16 digits in \u03c0 from the following formula for \u03c0:\nSum[16-k (4/(8k+1)-2/(8k+4)-1/(8k+5)-1/(8k+6)),{k,0,\u221e}]\nA similar approach can also be used for many other constants that can be viewed as related to values of PolyLog.",

        "raw_content": "E-cigarettes might be even more toxic than real cigarettes\nSmoking can kill you, but now we know that e-cigarettes can too. If you're trying to stop smoking by using smokeless cigarettes, you need to know that their active ingredient \u2014 nicotine \u2014 is a strong neurotoxin. Your skin can absorb it \u2014 and you can ingest it orally. Its flavorings \u2014 cherry, chocolate, and bubble gum \u2014 make it attractive for children as well as adults. What's more, these toxic flavorings, or \"e-liquids,\" are totally unregulated. This makes it easy for you to get seizures, vomit, or even kill yourself.\nThere's another reason to not smoke e-cigarettes: they don't work. A recent study found that smokers who used e-cigarettes weren't significantly more likely to give up smoking tobacco. In addition to not working, e-cigarettes contain diethylene glycol, a cancer-promoting chemical found in antifreeze.\nThe study followed 949 smokers nationwide from 2011 through 2012 and did not find evidence that e-cigarettes were useful in helping people quit. The researchers wrote, \"Although electronic cigarettes are aggressively promoted as smoking cessation aids, studies of their effectiveness have been unconvincing.\" They even went so far as to say that \"regulations should prohibit advertising claiming or suggesting that e-cigarettes are effective smoking cessation devices until claims are supported by scientific evidence.\"\nOne placebo-controlled study did suggest that e-cigarettes were as effective as nicotine patches at helping people quit - but that's not saying much. Those rates are 6-7%, which aren't exactly impressive.\nBut beyond not being effective for quitting, the e-liquid that fills e-cigarettes is highly dangerous in itself. Whether you ingest it or absorb it through the skin, it's powerful enough to be lethal. Even a diluted teaspoon of it can kill a small child. These dangerous liquids aren't regulated and far too often are left around the house easily accessible to children.\nToxicologists are very worried about the dangers of e-liquids. In fact, Lee Cantrell, director of the San Diego division of the California Poison Control System, said, \"It's not a matter of if a child will be seriously poisoned or killed. It's a matter of when.\"\nAccidental poisoning rates from e-liquids have skyrocketed in the last several years. There's been at least one death. And there were 1,351 poison control center cases linked to e-liquids in 2013 alone. That's a 300% jump over 2012, and experts worry that the number will continue to rise rapidly. In one case, a woman's e-cigarette broke in her bed. She absorbed the e-liquid through her skin and was subsequently admitted to the hospital with cardiac problems.\nE-liquids pose a more dangerous poison risk because our bodies absorb liquid so quickly. Mr. Cantrell described nicotine as \"one of the most potent naturally occurring toxins we have.\" It's dangerous in any form, and e-liquids and e-cigarettes are clearly not a safe alternative to traditional cigarettes.\nIf you or anyone you know has been using e-cigarettes, stop immediately and begin a gentle but effective detoxification to remove any stored toxins.

        "raw_content": "patriarchal feminism\nJessa Crispin regains focus in new book \u201cWhy I Am Not A Feminist\u201d\nFeminism is the new black. And although that\u2019s not necessarily a bad thing \u2013 not at all, actually \u2013 there are a few concerns with this not-so-new concept of women\u2019s equality. Unfortunately, instead of a movement, feminism has largely become a brand, a buzzword albeit. And it\u2019s being used on literally everything. Hats, sweaters, mugs, and even stickers for your laptop. Your laptop. So, it\u2019s no surprise that the definition of feminism is losing its meaning between the merchandise and arguments between you and bae about \u2018who pays for dinner\u2019 next.\nNowadays, everyone is a feminist. Jessa Crispin, however, argues otherwise. In her new book, \u201cWhy I Am Not a Feminist: A Feminist Manifesto\u201d, Crispin explains the importance of bringing back the true meaning of feminism.\nHer inspiration behind the book was simple. After reading up on modern feminist writing over the past five years or so, Crispin claimed to be constantly filled with despair on the content of the writing. And with the ongoing issues around the world, including the rise of the far-right worldwide, mass deportations in America, the shutting down of abortion clinics, she noticed that feminist writing still continues to be mostly concerned with lifestyle choices and pop culture. And that\u2019s not the main priority right now.\n\u201cIt led to occasions where I had to scream into a pillow. So writing this book was just my way of doing something with that anger so I wasn\u2019t overwhelmed by it anymore.\u201d\n\u201cWhy I Am Not a Feminist\u201d reminds readers what feminism is really about. As a feminist, men and women should be fighting for the political, economic, and social equality between the sexes. A feminist should recognize that women are oppressed by complicated systems. A feminist should realize that the oppression of women is not limited to the wage gap in North American society, or the prevention of girl on girl hate, or on dress codes that dictate what women should or should not wear.\nUpon first glance, one may come to the conclusion that the book is actually calling out \u2018white feminism\u2019 \u2013 a concept which has gotten an increased amount of attention in recent years. While not outright exclusive, white feminism is about the failure to consider the problems faced by the \u201caverage woman\u201d who are often alienated due to their colour, sexuality, cultural practices, and religious beliefs.\nBe careful though. It\u2019s not. In fact, Crispin hates the term \u201cwhite feminism\u201d as she so boldly told Women\u2019s Post.\n\u201cIt doesn\u2019t really convey the meaning it\u2019s trying to. What it should be is \u201cpower feminism,\u201d a kind of pro-woman stance that is interested in the amassing and holding of power. Yes, white women have the most power these days. But the problems related to power feminism \u2014 a kind of blind selfishness, a focus on individual success over societal reform, a value system based on money and power and greed \u2014 are problems with our whole culture.\nMaybe just call it patriarchal feminism!\nBut yes, feminism has been blind for too long to issues of class and race and sexuality, and it has been reluctant to look at the times when feminism and feminist leaders were racist, homophobic, and xenophobic. You still see this nonsensical resistance to associating themselves with the trans advocacy movement because they can\u2019t move past a biological view of gender, or their lack of empathy and solidarity with the Black Lives Matter movement. And that\u2019s a symptom of anxiety, that if they admit the humanity of other people \u2014 despite the fact that they themselves are begging to have their own humanity recognized \u2014 there won\u2019t be enough attention for their own issues.\nWe\u2019re all in this together. We are suffering under the same system. There has to be a solidarity that transcends race, sexuality, religion, class, and every other marker, so that we can fight effectively.\u201d\nSo what exactly does Crispin hope you take away from her manifesto? Well, that\u2019s not her job to figure out.\n\u201cI write the thing, then it\u2019s up to people to manage their own responses. I\u2019m not trying to abdicate responsibility for the work, I absolutely stand by it. But I don\u2019t really have any expectation that this is going to change feminism. I think the best thing a writer can do is simply to write the material and then get out of the material\u2019s way.\u201d\nShe\u2019s unapologetic. She\u2019s pertinent. And her new book is a reflection of that. It\u2019ll leave you feeling rather angry, and Crispin\u2019s gallant, at times ranty way of explaining her point of view will only fuel this anger. This is not the type of book you\u2019ll want to read with a cup of tea in your pajamas. It\u2019s the type of book for when you\u2019re looking for that extra jolt of passion required to seek the change you need.\nWhether you agree with her views or not, readers should admire the Crispin for her unconventional, yet highly relevant, way of thinking. Essentially, \u201cWhy I Am Not a Feminist\u201d is a not-so-friendly reminder that being a feminist isn\u2019t just about wearing a \u201cthis is what a feminist looks like\u201d shirt or about re-blogging a gif from a Taylor Swift interview on Tumblr. It\u2019s about looking past that, and focusing on what is important to truly bring about the change towards equality.\n\u201cWhy I Am Not a Feminist\u201d is now available on Amazon!\nWhat are your thoughts on the book?

        "raw_content": "Professor Torgny N\u00e4sholm received the 2018 Marcus Wallenberg Prize from the hands of King Carl XVI Gustaf. Photo: Johan Guns\u00e9us.\nThe 2018 Marcus Wallenberg Prize of SEK 2 million was awarded to Professor Torgny N\u00e4sholm for his groundbreaking research of the role of organic nitrogen in the nutrition of trees.\nProfessor Torgny N\u00e4sholm, the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences, Ume\u00e5, Sweden, has examined the role of amino acids in supplying the nitrogen required for the growth of forest trees. His work has caused a breakthrough in explaining the nutrition of plants. For his discoveries, Torgny N\u00e4sholm was awarded the 2018 Marcus Wallenberg Prize\nThe findings have had an impact on nursery and forestry practices in coniferous forests in the Nordic countries.\nThe first patent for this approach was issued in 2000 and a fertilizer called Argrow, based on the amino acid arginine was introduced on the market. Arginine is a nitrogen-rich amino acid that is rapidly absorbed by plants. The fertilizer is mainly used in forest nurseries in Sweden, and tests have been performed in Finland, USA, Canada, Uruguay, China, New Zealand, and Australia. It is also being tested on other commercial crops and garden plants.\nThe innovation has been further developed and a new category of patented, slow release fertilizer based on arginine is currently being tested in large-scale field trials in Finland and Sweden. The results are very promising, according to Torgny N\u00e4sholm.\nSeedpad is an example of another new technology for improved germination of pine and spruce seeds, that Arevo AB, Ume\u00e5, Sweden recently developed. Torgny N\u00e4sholm is the CEO for this company.\nThe Prize Selection Committee of the Marcus Wallenberg Foundation states in its motivation that Torgny N\u00e4sholm has made innovative discoveries with substantial practical importance to a sustainable management of forests. He has managed to translate and transfer his scientific discoveries into useful applications.\nMarcus Wallenberg, chairman of the Marcus Wallenberg Foundation, stated in his presentation speech that Torgny N\u00e4sholm\u2019s research is valuable for the forest sector.\n\u201cHis findings have led to a paradigm shift in the understanding of the ecosystem in forest trees. He has also developed effective and environmentally friendly fertilizers\u201d, Marcus Wallenberg said.",

We did new stuff and took requests.\n\u201cIt was all super fans and they were all asking for obscure B sides.\n\u201cIt was hard but by the second chorus, we\u2019d kind of got it.\u201d\nBut the 44-year-old dad-of-two, who is married to Trainspotting and Nanny McPhee star Kelly Macdonald says it is not the band which makes a show, but the crowd.\nAnd this is one reason why the group have no problem playing their hits every night some 15 years after their release.\nDougie says: \u201cI always find it a bit odd when people get a bit sniffy about playing hits, or familiar stuff.\n\u201cThe main thing about shows is the crowd \u2013 it\u2019s 10 per cent band, 90 per cent crowd and we\u2019ve always felt like that.\n\u201cThe most important thing is for the crowd singing along.\n\u201cPeople are shy about singing alone, about projecting their voice. When they have the protection of a crown, they can do it with total freedom.\n\u201cGetting the crowd singing, that\u2019s really important \u2013 that\u2019s the best bit for us.\n\u201cAnd the beauty of our latest record is the songs are short, which means we can play more stuff.\u201d\nWith 60-odd shows done this year, the band have no plans to rewrite the set list for a handful of festive shows.\n\u201cThe shows over the year is a matter of refining the set list, getting it right, pinpointing what really works together, what is the right framework,\u201d explains Dougie.\n\u201cWe think we have got that right now and don\u2019t want to mess that up, but we have plans to throw in a Christmas cover \u2013 we\u2019ve done Slade and Wham before.\u201d\nn Travis play Sheffield\u2019s O2 Academy on Tuesday, December 20.

        "raw_content": "The Benefit of Heel Randy Orton\nOver the years various talent have found their comfort zone and the place they belong to have the most success. The WWE though doesn't always look at it that way and sometimes they see it as talent just needing to get use to a new role. Even when the comfort level doesn't change and it is clear that the talent doesn't belong on one side but the other look to The Miz as a perfect example of this idea. Another person that has even gone on record to say that he is not only more comfortable but preferred role for him in the company. For the last 16 years, Randy Orton has held many different roles in the WWE and was one the companies first major projects following the departures of Steve Austin and The Rock.\nAt first Randy came up as a typical white meat baby face that was very cookie cutter until his injury that took him off tv for a few months. Upon his return to television we got the first taste of him as a heel being a part of Evolution. The \"Legend Killer\" gimmick fit Randy to a tee and was almost an extension of himself and it only got better as time went on from feuds with Shawn Michaels to a legendary feud with Mick Foley. In my opinion though when he made the move to the \"Viper\" it only got better as his time as the viper was the peak of his career.\nHowever, in recent years Randy's career hit a stand still and in way become quite stagnant almost like he was just going through the motions and phoning it in every time he was in the ring. This lead to many fans wishing for the day that Randy would go back to his old ways and get another run as a heel. At Extreme Rules it happened when Randy returned to attack Jeff Hardy he officially changed to back to a heel. Now we have exactly what we've been waiting for and that is Randy in the position that he has always felt most comfortable. The benefit this brings to the WWE is that now they have one of their best heels in modern era back doing what he always did better then most; and that's get people to hate him. Overall I think this also does wonders for Smackdown's heel roster as it gives guys like AJ Styles someone new to feud with that they might not have had the chance to feud with before the turn and that feud is something I'd tune in to watch.",

        "raw_content": "A Conversation With Jeff Herman\nLiterary agent Jeff Herman founded The Jeff Herman Agency, LLC, in 1987 while still in his twenties. The agency has expanded rapidly since then, and has sold more than 350 titles.\nHerman's agency has established a strong presence in general adult nonfiction, including business, reference, commercial self-help, computers, recovery/healing and spirituality. Herman's notable clients include bestselling authors Dave Pelzer, Jack Canfield, and Mark Victor Hansen, authors of Chicken Soup for the Soul, the #1 New York Times bestseller which has launched a host of sequels and football great Joe Montana. His most infamous client was Gennifer Flowers, author of Sleeping With the President: My Intimate Years With Bill Clinton (Jeff's wife, author Deborah Levine Herman actually ghost wrote that one). His agency has sold everything from humor books, such as Dumb As I Wanna Be : 101 Reasons to Hate Dennis Rodman by David Hanson, Christopher Erkmann (Illustrator) (Avon), to serious business titles, such as The Saturn Difference: Creating Customer Loyalty In Your Company by Vicki Lenz (John Wiley & Sons). Herman speaks throughout the country about how to get published. He's a contributor to Writer's Digest Magazine, and has been written about in many books and publications, including Success, Entrepreneur, and Publisher's Weekly. He has appeared on numerous television and radio shows. Previously, Herman worked for a New York public relations firm where he designed and coordinated national consumer marketing campaigns for Nabisco Brands and AT&T. Prior to that, he was a publicist at Schocken Books, where he promoted the bestseller, When Bad Things Happen To Good People by Harold S. Kushner. Herman graduated from Syracuse University with a Bachelor of Science degree in consumer economics. He was Captain of the school's award-winning debate team and a leader in student government. He is a member of the Association of Author Representatives and the National Speakers Association. Known as one of the most dynamic and innovative agents in the business, Herman is also the author of the annual bestselling book, the 2000-2001 Writer's Guide to Book Editors, Publishers and Literary Agents (Prima Publishing), You Can Make it Big Writing Books (Prima Publishing), and How to Write a Book Proposal: 15 Proposals that Worked and Why! (John Wiley). Jeff met his wife Deborah when she came to work for the agency. Deborah is now vice-president and editorial director of the agency, and is a contributing editor to the annual Writer's Guide.\nAs you might expect, Jeff Herman is charming, intelligent and quite persuasive on his views about the industry: just the attributes any writer would love to have in an agent. He is also enthusiastic, and his love for his work comes through loud and clear in every sentence that he speaks. He has little patience with those who constantly dwell on the bad side of things, preferring a more optimistic approach to life -- even in the face of the grueling hours required by his profession. Jeff spoke with us about his road to success as a literary agent and author, and gives some great advice for writers hoping to get published.\nOh, let's see. I actually did not get interested in reading until I was in high school, around the 10th grade. I started to read the classics. I'd read one right after the other. I'd read Mark Twain, D.H. Lawrence, Charles Dickens: all the greats. I really enjoyed it.\nWhat was your first job after you graduated from Syracuse?\nMy first job out of college was with Shocken Books; I did in-house publicity. Shocken was an independent, mom and pop publisher, which is now part of Random House. As you know, independently-owned publishers are few and far between these days. The publicity department consisted of my boss and myself. My first big project was When Bad Things Happen to Good People. We didn't know at the time how big that book would be.\nWhat prompted your decision to go out on your own to form your own agency?\nI left the publishing company to work for a public\n\"In query letters many writers immediately put themselves down, and they don't even know they're doing it. They'll tell me in the first paragraph how long they've been trying to get published without any success, how countless editors and agents have already rejected their manuscript. These are not the kind of statements that are going to make me think they've really got something great.\"\nrelations firm that specialized in corporate work. The publishing industry then (as now) paid very little money, especially for entry level people. This industry pays starvation level wages! You get very good experience, however. I was in a more mercenary state of mind at the time, and did corporate PR, but I was getting itchy -- I was still in my 20s then. I always felt more comfortable working on my own projects. I wasn't really a great team player. So I left the agency I was with and I formed my own PR agency. I went out and got my own clients, and it's worked out very nicely. It just so happened that some of my clients that I was bringing in had written books or wanted to write books, for two reasons. One, because it was a passion of theirs, and two, because they saw it as a very cost-effective way to promote their services or their businesses.\nSo, at first, I was doing PR. I didn't even know what a literary agent was; it wasn't a part of my world, even though I had been in publishing. I was on the marketing side and I really had no dealings with agents up to that point. My dealings with authors at that point was really to promote their businesses or their services. Their books became another marketing tool, another story hook. The clients began to ask me to sell their next book for them to book publishers, to act as the go-between. The word \"agent\" never came up, though. Up to that point, I had always been very effective in reaching out to the media so, as far as I knew, book publishers were just another form of media. I would cold call book publishers to see if they might want to read a particular manuscript that I had available, and that's how I started to be an agent -- even though I had no idea that I was agenting. It was actually an editor who told me that I was an agent. Editors would start to refer to me as an agent, and I would always correct them and tell them that I was really a PR person. But as far as they were concerned, I was an agent. What I found was that I really enjoy that aspect of the work more than any other aspects of the business. I like working with the client on packaging his book, working on the deal with the publisher and getting it published.\nWhen did you face the fact that you had actually become a literary agent?\nWhen I was 28 or 29. I had been agenting part-time for a couple of years, and then decided to come out of the closet and be a real agent. My plan at that point was to phase out public relations work and go straight to doing the agent thing, which was risky. Legitimate agents are paid on a contingency basis, but the PR business is retainer-based. In the PR business, there's a certain security in always having a retainer. With agenting you need to have the confidence that you can generate sales. It's purely commission.\nWhat was your first really big sale as an agent?\nA book called Getting Hired. The book was published by Prentice-Hall, with a modest advance. Because I had these PR skills, I contacted beer companies. This was back in the mid-80s when the drinking age was still eighteen. College campuses were still considered to be fair game for marketing of alcohol. Beer companies hyped themselves aggressively on campuses: most of them had special divisions for this purpose. So I contacted a number of beer companies and said, \"Look, you're spending all this money on radio ads, billboards and ads in college newspapers. What if you actually took this book and custom-printed it with your own logo on it with your own inserts, and gave a copy to every college student for free?\" Coors, which at the time was really a regional beer producer, jumped on the idea. They loved it. Coors bought 300,000 copies of the books through Prentice-Hall, but now wherever you would have seen the Prentice-Hall name, you would see the Coors name. They distributed these specialized versions of Getting Hired on college campuses around the country. It was a very successful campaign for the company; that was my first big deal.\nWhat was the most challenging aspect during those early years of starting your own business?\nI found that getting to know the editors was not difficult. They are just looking for something to acquire that might be good. What was difficult initially was getting good product that I could sell. I was not really networked or connected to writers, per se. How would anyone even know to send me his manuscript? So what I did was to use my PR skills on myself. I set out to promote myself, and I received a lot of publicity in a lot of different ways: tv, print etc. I would obtain lists from writers' groups and I would do direct mailings introducing myself as a new agent. Writers, to a certain extent, were flattered to get a letter. I personalized the letters which, at the time, was much more difficult to do than it is to do today. We would have \"Dear Mr. Johnson.\" It wasn't just a generic \"Dear Writer\" letter. I received a fantastic response from this. Many really good writers who were not sure about their current agent got back to me, and I started to generate a lot of good stuff.\nWhat excites you about a manuscript when you read it?\nI have to be able to, in my gut, visualize a publisher being able to publish it. I can't really use my brain too much. It really has to come from my own intuition. Naturally, I am going to be wrong a lot of the time, as everyone is in this business, regardless of the process that they use. When I say wrong, I mean that I have let some good stuff get by me. I occasionally sign up something that perhaps I shouldn't have, but for the most part I think that I have a pretty good sense. When something clicks for me, I think, \"Yes, this is it. I can really see someone publishing this.\" That is exciting.\nWhat kinds of books are you looking for right now?\nMy aptitudes are really in nonfiction, not in fiction. We do the occasional fiction book, but that's difficult for me. I am much more fluent in nonfiction. Within the nonfiction category, I do all kinds of books. I am particularly strong in the categories of self-help, how-to books and pop psychology.\nHow many queries or manuscripts do you receive every month?\nHundreds, probably because of the Writer's Guide that I publish. That generates an enormous amount of correspondence. My wife is in the business, and she helps me. I have a couple of assistants who help me screen, as well. We generally do have a bit of a bottleneck. That is the nature of this business.\nWhat is the biggest mistake that aspiring writers make when they are trying to convince you to take them on as a client?\nThey make a lot of mistakes! They do a lot of things right, of course, but there are a lot of things they do wrong, as well. For example, in query letters many writers immediately put themselves down, and they don't even know they're doing it. They'll tell me in the first paragraph how long they've been trying to get published without any success, how countless editors and agents have already rejected their manuscript. These are not the kind of statements that are going to make me think they've really got something great. They are intelligent people, but they just don't understand that this is a business. They think it's like social work, or something, and they write as if they were addressing a social worker whose job is to help them. But trust me, the sad story does not impress agents. If you don't have anything good to say about yourself, make something up. And if you can't make it up, please don't say anything bad about yourself -- even if you really are just a miserable, wretched case.\nLet's talk about timing of queries a bit. For example, if you had a query about a Y2K or Millennium book, when should you have submitted that idea?\nAbout two years in advance, for a high concept novel. Those kinds of books had to start getting published in late 1998.\nLet's talk about the marketing side, after the book is published. How important is it for an author to be mediagenic these days? What can an author do to become more mediagenic, if he's not exactly Mel Gibson?\nMost authors -- most people -- aren't that mediagenic.\nYou'd be surprised, but you don't need to be mediagenic, or even have any media behind you for a book to do well. Media doesn't necessarily sell books. There are people who have done major talk shows, and yet very few copies of the book sold. There are people who have taken out huge ads in newspapers which generated no book sales. The key question is: how do you generate word of mouth about a book? It's a slow process. It doesn't have to be immediate. Once you're established, like Stephen King or John Grisham, then you become branded. You're a brand and you have a following. And once your new book comes out there will be an immediate groundswell of support for it, because people have been waiting for it. So it will hit the lists immediately. If you are not yet a celebrity or yet an established brand, you're most likely not going to have an immediate bestseller, but there are things that you can do over time to generate word of mouth, so that eventually you will have a bestseller. The primary example of that is Chicken Soup for the Soul. The authors were my clients, originally. Now they're doing it on their own. That book (the first one they wrote) was probably in print for a good nine months before it made any bestseller lists. It became a bestseller because they worked it.\nIt was a small publisher that originally published the book?\nYes, it was a small publisher which, at the time, was not a player of any significance. But they worked it. Any radio show, they did. Any TV show or newspaper they could do, they did. They also discovered all the distribution channels that might be available. They went where authors generally do not go. They hit as many signings as they possibly could. They didn't care how humiliating it was, because most people don't even go to signings unless it's a big celebrity. They contacted as many catalogs as they could think of. There is this whole huge direct response catalog market and they got themselves in as many catalogs as they could.\nNot book catalogs?\nNo it could be anything, clothing or greeting cards: they got their book listed in the catalogue. They contacted a lot of the MLMs (Multi Level Marketing). Things like Amway. And these organizations began to buy the books by the thousands.\nWho named that book?\nIt was the authors' idea. So they just kept working it and pumping it and in the end people were telling each other to buy the book.\nYou're an author yourself -- let's talk about your annual guide, the Writer's Guide to Book Editors, Publishers and Literary Agents. What originally inspired you to write this book?\nThat was back when I was making the transition\nfrom being a part-time agent to being a full-time agent. One of the challenges I had was knowing who published what, and knowing who the editors were at each publishing company and what they did. I had to do my own homework from scratch. I would have to call up each publisher and find out who the editors were and so on. I began to make a database. Then it occurred to me that the reason I had to this from scratch was because no one else ever had done it. It was not available. In the public relations field, those lists could also be bought. You could always buy a list of all the radio and TV shows in any city in Texas with the names of the producers -- who to contact and what they were looking for. Nothing like that existed in book publishing. So I decided to create it.\nI found the detail, the personalization and the comments especially impressive. That must be incredibly time-consuming to keep updated.\nI knew people wanted more than just a name. They wanted to get a feeling. They wanted to get a sense of the human being they would be talking to, so we do our best to give them that. We have some new books coming out which will supplement the Writer's Guide, which will make the process even more personal. We have a book coming out called The Editors' Speak, which will not only give you who the editors are, but it's actually going to go beyond the Writer's Guide. Just like you are interviewing me now, we're going to interview several hundred editors.\nWhen is that project going to come out?\nThat should be out sometime late next year from Career Press.\nHow do you find time to integrate your writing into your schedule as an agent?\nWell, I sort of have a template for the Writer's Guide. I've already invented the wheel for the Writer's Guide, so I know what has to be done and I'm able to obtain very good freelancers who I supervise.\nWere you at all surprised by the book's big success?\nNo, because I know it's a good book and I know that there are so many people out there that either want to be writers or want to think about being writers. I knew that there is really an untapped, unsupported market out there.\nLet's talk about your latest book, You Can Make it Big Writing Books. How did this book come about?\nIt came about because people are always asking me\nwhat happens after they get their book published. So many people are so frustrated once they get their book published. They really did not understand the process. They thought that getting a book published meant it would be as easy to find as a container of Tide detergent. Because it's a book, it will be on every shelf in every bookstore. But it doesn't work that way. The ratio of shelf space to product available is just astronomical. It's not like with laundry detergent where you have maybe ten or fifteen brands. With books, you have hundreds of thousands (if not millions) of copies. So even with superstores, you're still going to have a limit. Amazon is able to offer a million copies, because they just have to throw in some more megabytes of storage space, but a bookstore can't do that. So authors were very frustrated. They couldn't find their books and it meant so much to them to get it published. The publishers don't really communicate with writers about the process of publishing. So the point of this book was to try to give writers a little more power. Most of the writers I have spoken to were shocked beyond belief after they finally got their book published, asking me, \"What do you mean I have to go promote it myself??\" That was the biggest shock, especially the little midlist authors I come across. For the most part, there really is no in-house publicity, except for the big frontlist books, or if a publisher has invested hundreds of thousands of dollars for an advance or something. Or if it's a celebrity-driven book, or if the author is someone with a track record, like a Grisham. Even then, publicity is not done in-house. The publisher allocates money to retain outside agencies to do it. But they'll only do that if it's a book they have a really big investment in. Everything else stands by itself.\nIn the book I thought it was really interesting the way you categorized authors who do manage to sell their work: the marathoners, the producers, the promoters. Can you tell which category someone is going to fall into when you meet them or read a query, or is it based on performance?\nYou can tell beforehand. For instance, if the person who's coming to me just happens to have his own business, and it's a business that he had to build and continue to build on his own through his own networking and efforts, you can assume that person is going to use that drive and use that gift to keep going once his book is published. He is going to turn that loose. If it's someone who has shown no aptitude or experience in the area of self-promotion, self-marketing for his survival and he's had it comfortable in that respect -- that's a person who's unproven. It doesn't mean that he couldn't turn it on and learn it, but he certainly doesn't have a track record for it.\nA strong backlist can help an author sell future books. A weak backlist can really hurt an author. Have you run across a situation where an author's sales are down, but he'd like to launch a new series. Do you recommend that he change his name or publish under a pseudonym?\nNo. Generally not. That would not be my advice. The fact that he's had books published puts him way ahead of the game. If you've never had a book published, then you're a virgin. You're totally untested. I think the most difficult position to be in is someone who has never been published. The fact that you have been published, commercially published, even if it was not a big seller, still makes an impression. It makes an impact on the agents and the editors. They know that you've gone through that hurdle and they will read your material differently. It prejudices them in your favor because they think, \"Oh, she's been published; she knows the score.\"\nEven if her prior books didn't sell that well?\nMost books don't sell that well. Publishers know that as well as anyone. They know that most books just do not sell well.\nWhat kind of numbers should a first-time author be expecting from an advance for non-fiction?\nSomewhere between $5,000 and $15,000.\nFor fiction?\nLet's talk a little about the agenting process and what is a fair commission.\nToday I'd say 90% of the agents are at 15%. The rest are at 10%. I think that anything more than 15% is not really considered acceptable in the industry, unless there are other services thrown in.\nLet's talk a little about the publishing industry itself. Obviously, it's in a state of upheaval with all the mergers and consolidations. How are these changes going to affect the kinds of books that were going to see in the bookstore? And how's it going to affect authors?\nWell, it's a trend that started in the early parts of\n\"The Internet has solved some of the distribution problem of self-published authors. If you self-publish a paper-bound book, how do you distribute it? That's difficult.\"\nthis decade. The independent powerhouse book publisher doesn't exist anymore. There's a few. There's a handful. But you still have the names of the people who started these companies a hundred years ago: Prentice, Hall, Harper, Simon, Schuster. But those people, for the most part, don't exist anymore. The publishing houses are owned by huge multi-national corporate entities, for whom book publishing is not all that important. Let's take Viacom, which owns Simon & Schuster. The trade book sales represent probably less than 1% of Viacom's revenue. It's getting the other 99% of its revenue from making movies, producing music, producing TV shows, cable channels, etc. Viacom likes having these book divisions because it gives the company the entire mix in the communications world and, even though it's only 1% of the revenue, publishing a book is still the best way to influence the culture. You reach a very influential pocket of the population with a hardcover book. It goes way beyond the number of people that are actually buying the book. But the way it's going to change and has been changing is that the bottom line is much more crucial than it used to be. Because you don't have individuals, such as Mr. Prentice, saying, \"Well this book may not make that much money. It may even lose money, but, you know what? I like it.\" You don't have that kind of discretion anymore, because you have to answer to the shareholders. You have to answer to the board of directors. It can't just be your own conscience or your own sensibilities anymore that you rely on as an editor. So for that reason there is no risk taking to speak of. It's very limited. Where that has hurt people is you don't have what's known as the midlist -- the books that were never intended to be blockbusters.\nHow would you define midlist in terms of sales?\nAs low as 5,000 copies hardcover per year. These are books that were meant to be very modest.\nOk, so we've got the blockbuster and the midlist. Is there a special term you use for the people who sell 50,000 to 100,000 books?\nIf you can sell 50,000 hardcover in a year, that's bestseller potential -- especially if those 50,000 occurred within a certain timeframe. So there's fewer midrange books being published, which means there's fewer opportunities to get a book published for writers. On the other hand, those who do get published have a potential to make more money. Because there is a lot of money that's being concentrated at the top. So if you can get yourself up there to the top, there's more money to made in that respect.\nAnother trend that is definitely affecting the publishing industry would be the electronic revolution, especially the rise of the Internet. What's your opinion of this new trend of e-publishing?\nWell, the best I can tell it's really just an alternative delivery system. It's the same as when LPs went to CDs, which will go to something else. It's just a different delivery system. I mean someone still has to write it. People will just read it on a Rocket Book or the equivalent.\nThere's another trend going on, which is electronic self-publishing.\nYou can self-publish on the Net. But you can self-publish without the Net. It still comes down to: how are you going to get people to your site and read your book on the Net? Unless you have a high-definition monitor it's just impossible to read that much text on a computer. I don't know about you, but I can't read more than a few pages on the typical computer screen without getting nauseous. It's like trying to read in a moving car.\nMicrosoft has a new delivery system which is supposed to be very easy to read and would alleviate that problem. The ClearType font technology.\nRight. That's what's nice about the Rocket Book; it really has high definition contrast. It doesn't have a cathode tube. So you can actually read it for long periods without damaging your eyesight.\nLet's talk about this new delivery system of the traditionally created books: those that have been edited by professional editors.\nFirst it will start with the bestsellers and the classics. They will convert all those, so that they can be accessed on something like the Rocket Book. The Rocket Book will be improved and probably bigger companies will be coming in and doing it, and pretty soon you'll be able to buy one of those things for $25 instead of $400. Pretty soon you'll be able to buy the entire Stephen King library on one small disk (or as a download) and travel with it wherever you want to go. You'll have this viewer which weighs just a few ounces. But it's just a different delivery system.\nIt's the year 2020. Have books printed on paper gone away?\nMaybe. The generational thing, you know. It's possible that you may not need paper-based books anymore. It may be possible. But you're still going to need people to write the books. You're still going to need people who edit the books. You're still going to need the publishers of the book, the people who convey the book to the purveyors of the books. You still need a producer of the product.\nWell, I guess that's another question. Are we still going to need traditional publishers? Because there's a group of companies that have come onto the Internet who are trying to bypass that entire system.\nThey'll just become alternative publishers. If they\n\"Most authors -- most people -- aren't that mediagenic. You'd be surprised, but you don't need to be mediagenic, or even have any media behind you for a book to do well.\"\ndon't generate good product, they won't make it. They haven't gotten very far yet, and they're not going to get very far unless they can generate competitive product. That's the bottom line. Books that are not professionally edited are not going to get too far. I don't see it as a threat to writers. It's only a threat to publishers who don't change their technology from being paper-based to being electronic-based. But so long as they stay on their toes and they go with the times so they can shift how they are delivering the product, it doesn't matter. You may have Simon & Schuster twenty years from now not publishing any paper-based product, but it will still be a publisher. Stephen King may not have any more new books being printed in paper, but he'll still be a writer. So I don't think it's a problem. The Internet has solved some of the distribution problem of self-published authors. If you self-publish a paper-bound book, how do you distribute it? That's difficult. The fun thing about the Internet is you can distribute it through the Web. But if nobody goes to your site or doesn't think that there is a reason to go to your site, then you're back where you started when you just printed your own paper-based book. The only reason people will go to your website is because they think there is something on your site that they want.\nTake us through a typical Monday for Jeff Herman, the agent.\nWell, it's interesting. There's a certain amount of free will. The general tasks on any given day or any given week are the same. I have to do a certain amount of pitching of projects that I'm actively trying to sell. That includes talking to editors, maybe writing a pitch letter. I have to do a certain amount of screening, which is new material that's coming in that I may or may not want to represent. I have to do a certain amount of bookkeeping to see what monies are coming in for clients, and make sure that the money goes out for the clients. I have to make sure the rent gets paid, things like that. I have to do a good deal of telephone work, answering client's calls or questions, editor's calls or questions, things like that. Just like with anyone's day. A certain amount of general correspondence with people. I also try to budget some time to work on my own books.\nDo you like to write at night or during the day?\nWhenever I can squeeze it in. Weekends, nights, early mornings.\nDo you write on the computer?\nNo, I write on a legal pad. Then I have my assistant transcribe it onto the computer for me, and then I edit it on the computer. I used to compose with a keyboard, but I just stopped doing it.\nNegative people. People who are always negative and are never appreciative of what they have been given and what they have gotten. People who constantly dwell on all the terrible things.\nWhat do you for fun, to relax?\nWatch TV. Read what I want to read.

        "raw_content": "Top \u00bb Lockers and Storage Units \u00bb Sports Stadium Open Access Athle\nDressing rooms in sports stadiums and athletic centers can be furnished with a variety of open access sports lockers. These units are designed to fully accommodate the storage of uniforms, day clothing, special athletic equipment, and valuables. All locker models share the same basic design, but their dimensions, special features, and material builds vary widely to accommodate different environments and different types of sports.\nThese lockers are made from heavy duty steel, wood, or plastic. Metal units are ventilated in order to prevent the buildup of moisture and odor. Wooden units are made from treated wood that is humidity resistant. Plastic lockers in dressing rooms are the most corrosion and vandal resistant because they by nature resist moisture and are very difficult to dent. They are most commonly used for the storage of heavy gear because they are the most resistant to denting.\nProfessional sports stadiums, universities, and varsity high school athletic programs typically prefer the wooden stadium locker modelsbecause they feature both an efficient storage design and a higher quality aesthetic more in keeping with an upbeat, positive, and winning attitude.\nMetal open access sports lockers are typically less expensive and more suited to heavy traffic facilities that serve a multipurpose function. A good example of such a facility would be a civic center that plays host to a variety of little league, minor league, and corporate league games ranging from football, to softball, to soccer, to basketball.\nPlastic sports lockers are sometimes used in these facilities because they are extremely corrosion and vandal resistant. They are also easy to clean, and their resistance to denting also makes them ideal for the storage of heavy duty, non-athletic gear. Smaller towns that do not have a dedicated sports stadium, but rather a civic center used for a variety of public activities, may want to consider plastic open access lockers for dressing rooms that may also be used by municipal workers.\nAll open access sports lockers feature three interior storage sections. There is a top shelf unit that creates a cubby area where players can store their helmets, gloves, shoes, water bottles, or other items that can be fit into its space. Some styles have a divider that creates an open storage space on one side of the upper cubby and a closed space protected by a locked door on the other.\nDressing room lockers also have a middle section that constitutes the bulk of their vertical space. This area is typically used to store uniforms and larger pieces of equipment. Coat rods allow for day clothing to also be hung up neatly after athletes have changed into their uniforms. In professional sports stadiums, players also store thermal gear for winter football games, baseball bats, and extra jerseys and practice basketballs in this section. Footgear is typically placed here so it can be easily and quickly retrieved before a game.\nOpen access sports lockers also have a foot locker compartment at the bottom that in many models doubles as a bench when the player needs to put on athletic footgear. This compartment is secured with a lock and is typically used to store valuables. However, there is sufficient space here as well to store other forms of smaller athletic gear if the athlete wants to do so.\nOpen Access Athletic Dressing Room Equipment Lockers\nSports facilities today feature many amenities today that never existed in the locker rooms of the past. Some of these newer facilities are first class in nature and require the best accommodations for storage, changing, and showers. Open access athletic dressing room equipment lockers are therefo...",

        "title": "Introduction to Long Distance Riding.",
        "raw_content": "Introduction to Long Distance Riding.\nAuthor Topic: Introduction to Long Distance Riding. (Read 1911 times)\nNot a ride report, but an attempt to organise some of the history of long distance riding. Partly to fit the footage I've got. Covers much of the same ground as the AUK handbook and Dave Minter's effort. Comments welcomed.\n1,200 kilometres in 90 hours, on a bicycle. You\u2019ll be lucky to snatch a few hours sleep on each of four nights. Madness, surely. The province of the young, fit and slightly unhinged. Well no, it\u2019s Paris Brest Paris, a cycling event with a pedigree of over a century and 5,000 participants of all ages over 18.\nBig rides are getting more popular all the time, there were two in Europe over the Summer, a 1,500 km ride around Germany, the Hamburg-Berlin-Cologne-Hamburg and a One Thousand mile ride in Italy called the Mille Miglia. These events draw on the tradition of Paris Brest Paris, which is the pinnacle of a certain way of riding a bike.\nOn 23 May 1891 the first Bordeaux-Paris cycle race was held, the organisers had expected it to last a couple of days and had laid on beds and meals for the riders, George Pilkington-Mills won the event in 26 hours, on a diet that included a lot of strawberries. Bordeaux-Paris was a pivotal event, it led to Paris-Brest-Paris and then to the Tour de France via the work of Henri Desgrange. But the path to Mills\u2019 victory led from a world that pretty much stayed the same.\nMills was a member of the Anfield Cycling Club and later the North Road Cycling Club. As early as 1886 he rode a penny-farthing from Lands End to John O Groats in Five Days 10 hours, a record that still stands. In the same year he set a record for 24 hours at 259 miles in the North Roads Road Ride.\nMass start road racing has always been problematic in England, so competitive cycling depended on ruses that made it plausible to deny that any racing was taking place at all. There were handicap races that were designed to finish in a concerted sprint, time trials, where cyclist rode alone and place-to-place records. When I say alone, that is not strictly true, as pacers were allowed, putting the early records into a different light.\nIn Italy and France, this pacing aspect of cycling became formalised as \u2018Audax\u2019, groups of riders would undertake challenging rides in a formalised way, with a captain setting a constant pace, this enabled large distances to be covered, while allowing meal breaks and rest stops. A tradition was established which persists to this day as Euraudax.\nIn France the PBP had lost its place as the premier cycling race to the Tour de France, it was staged every 10 years and it was hard to train for such a long race while riding the other events in the calendar. From the beginning in 1891 there had been a division between racers and keen amateurs, in 1931 Audax Club Parisien, ACP for short, was given control of the randonneurs, as they were known. PBP continued as a calendared race until 1951. ACP developed a style of riding called \u2018allure libre\u2019, riders covered long distances at their own pace, but had to visit checkpoints called controles, between specified times.\nIn Britain, club cyclists followed a set pattern. Early in the season short time trials were ridden and increasing distances were covered as the year progressed, culminating in a 12 hour. In the off season the club dinner saw medals handed out for the winners at the distances, 10, 25, 30, 50, 100 miles and 12 hours, and for those who had reached a certain standard.\nThe 24 hours stood slightly apart, it had to be run in June or July, to use available daylight and preferably at the full moon. Few riders wanted to train exclusively for an event that might compromise their other aims for their season and it took a lot of effort to stage, so there were two main events, the Mersey Roads and the North Road. These were the successor events to those ridden in the 1880s by George Pilkington Mills and his rivals. Those who rode them split into serious contenders for a win and those who were doing it because it was there: a personal challenge.\nThere was another strand of long distance riding which came under the umbrella of the Cyclists Touring Club, like Euraudax, distances were covered at set speeds ranging from 50 miles in three and a half hours to 240 miles in 24 hours. Whereas the 24 hour time trials took place on roads chosen for speed, the CTC events were held over minor roads and riders needed to understand a route sheet.\nIn the 1960s Paris Brest Paris was stagnating, numbers fell from over 500 in 1951 and only rose above that level in 1971, by which time British riders started to take an interest. The early British riders were well known individuals who could show they could finish through their 24 hour rides, or rode ACP events in France.\nIn 1975 qualification for PBP was via completion of a 600 km ride under ACP rules.\nIn 1976 Audax UK was established to organise qualifying rides for PBP. Events such as the London Marathon in the 1980s raised the profile of the challenge of distance, leading to a ten-fold increase in PBP participants between 1971 and 2007.\nThe structure of PBP today reflects the three cornered origins of the riders who historically did it. There is a group which does it in under 80 hours called the Vedettes, one called the Randonneurs who take less than 84 hours and the Touristes who have 90 hours to do the ride. The bulk of the organisation is done by the FFCT, the French equivalent of the Cyclists Touring Club, the qualifying rides are also organised by volunteers, Audax UK members in Britain, the 24 Hours is also a volunteer run event, which is financed by subscription. I doubt whether long distance events could be staged on a commercial basis. It\u2019s not unknown to have more helpers than participants. So it\u2019s more of a partnership than a transaction riding them, which is quite refreshing, but can be frustrating if you are used to consistent standards. What it does mean is that the heroes of sport are accessible, as you are quite likely to meet a National 24 Hour Champion riding an Audax. The spirit of George Pilkington Mills lives on in figures like John Warnock, Andy Wilkinson, Gethin Butler, Lynne Taylor and Marina Bloom. But don\u2019t think that the presence of these elite athletes makes these events exclusive, they all want you to give it a go yourself and see just how far you can get.\nRe: Introduction to Long Distance Riding.\nNicely done, just a few nitpicking points that you may want to include. They don't actually change the thrust of your article.\n- George Pilkington Mills, no hyphen History\n- It might be worthwhile mentioning when paced racing on English roads was superseded by time trialling.\n- 'Allure libre' randonneuring was developed by the ACP in 1921.\n- The 1891 PBP only had one division, 1901, 1911 and 1921 PBP races had professional and amateur classifications. The 1931 PBP replaced the amateur race with Randonneur and Audax brevets. The professional race continued till 1951.\nTravelling to France to qualify for early PBPs was too expensive for the majority of AUK's founders and very few did, hence the need for British qualifiers. I understand that most of the early British PBPers weren't that well-known as racers (Harry Aspden as a racer and journalist being an exception) or as hard-riding CTCers. Barry Parslow mainly drifted between the Willesden and Marlboro Athletic clubs and it might be worthwhile chatting to Barry for more background on the early years of AUK.\nEarly British Reliability Rides or Standard Rides were held on the main A roads and so didn't need too much map-reading but I agree that in the last 30-40 years, they've drifted onto minor lanes.\nI remember meeting Harry Aspen at a Dover Fellowship meeting more than 20 years ago. An old friend of my father's.",

        "raw_content": "Mount Everest, the highest mountain in the world lies between Nepal and Tibet. It is a must see on many people\u2019s bucket list but to some it seems so far out of reach. In January 2016, we decided to take a trip to Kathmandu, Tibet, and Mount Everest. It is by far the most memorial trip we experienced thus far and we still think about it almost everyday. January is the winter in Tibet, so the weather was very cold. However, the benefit of going during this time of the year is the clear weather and a lot less tourists. Some people go to Mount Everest other times of the year only to find it is covered in clouds. By going in January, the chance of seeing Everest in clear weather is much higher. We chose January as it worked out for our work schedule but also recommend anyone interested to go during the warmer months of April to May.\nThis blog will go over the details of how to get to Tibet and Mt. Everest, along with our day to day schedule while we were there. But first, a few pictures\u2026\nView of Lhasa from Potala Palace\nScenery along the way to Mount Everest\nRoad leading to Mount Everest\nView of the Himalayan mountain ranges\nThere are two ways you can see Mount Everest. First from the south side of the mountain in Nepal and the north side of the mountain in Tibet. In Nepal, you can see the mountain via a route that requires trekking a few days to get to the base camp. In Tibet, you can take a tour that will take you directly to Everest Base Camp by means of a vehicle.\nWe chose the route to see Mount Everest from the Tibet side mainly because we wanted to see Tibet also on this trip.\nThe main airport in Tibet is in the city of Lhasa. There aren\u2019t many airlines that fly to Lhasa, so your options are pretty limited. The two ways to get into Tibet is first to take a flight to a major city in mainland China, then take a flight from there to Lhasa. The other way is to fly from Kathmandu, Nepal to Lhasa. That is right, the only international destination that flies to Lhasa is from Kathmandu.\nWe started our trip by flying from the USA to Kathmandu, Nepal. Flights from the US to Kathmandu is typically around $1000 per person. However, you can use 67,500 American Airlines points per person to book business class tickets on Etihad Airways, which is what we did (due to recent devaluation of points, it now requires 80k points per person for the same flight). Review of our flights will be in a separate blog entry. We stayed in Kathmandu for a few days then took an Air China flight to Lhasa. Note that, because there are only two airlines that flies Kathmandu to Lhasa route (Air China and Sichuan Airlines), the ticket prices are outrageous. The flight is only about 1 hour each way but the ticket costs about $600 \u2013 $700 round trip per person with either airline.\nThe view of flying over the Himalayan mountains on the plane.\nIn order to see Mount Everest and Tibet, you must be on a group tour, no exceptions. You cannot go to Tibet or get to Mount Everest on your own. We did the tour with a reputable and good company called Himalayan Glacier (http://himalayanglacier.com/). The tour includes a driver, tour guide, and all lodging. We had a great experience with this company and highly recommend you consider them. Note that in order to enter Tibet, you must be on a tour and get a special Tibet visa. The tour company will help you obtain the visa with additional fees. This is required to enter Tibet and you must keep your visa with you almost all times especially en route to Mount Everest as there are many security check-points throughout Tibet and they officials will check your passport and Tibet visa. Entering in Tibet, it is pretty strict so you want to comply to certain rules such as having a tour guide, stop for speed check, allow them to check your bags anytime requested, don\u2019t keep any religious items, talk about the political issues of Tibet, and etc. As long you comply with some of these restrictions even though it can be nuisance, you won\u2019t have much trouble in Tibet. When you\u2019re in the city of Lhasa, you are allowed to walk around the city without the tour guide accompanying you.\nThe whole tour to see Tibet and Mount Everest is 8 days long. It consists of exploring Lhasa (2 days), driving to Mount Everest and sightseeing along the way (3 days), and then driving back to Lhasa from Everest (2 days), and the final day is for the flight out.\nThe full schedule of the trip can be found here, so we won\u2019t repeat it in this post. Note that you can change and alter the schedule to however you want, as the tour company is pretty flexible.\nhttp://www.himalayanglacier.com/tours-in-tibet/104/lhasa-to-kathmandu-tour-via-everest-base-camp.htm\nTibet is an amazing country with the most friendly & peaceful people we\u2019ve met including the most amazing scenery, and is one of our favorite place out of the many we have visited.\nAltitude Sickness: Lhasa and Everest Base Camp are both at a very high altitude compared to what most people are used to, so altitude sickness is a major problem. Altitude sickness causes you to feel tired, nauseous, and sick. And in some cases, it can be a medical emergency. There are medicines that can help relieve the symptoms of altitude sickness. The most common medicine is by taking the prescription drug called Diamox. It helps reduce the effects of altitude sickness and we highly recommend you ask your doctor for the prescription and take it the start of your trip in visiting Tibet. In fact, we might have not been able to make it to Everest Base Camp if we did not have this medicine, as we both were not feeling too well the higher we ascend during our trip. Our recommendation, take the medicine and don\u2019t risk it! Many people who choose not to take it, end up getting extremely sick on the way to Everest, and having to cancel the trip midway in order to descend, missing the chance to see Everest completely.\nDay 1 \u2013 We landed at Lhasa airport and was picked up by our tour guide that drove us to our hotel. Lhasa is high in elevation so there is less oxygen in the air than what people are used to, so the rest of the day we just take it easy in order to acclimate.\nDay 2 \u2013 We visited the Potala Palace in Lhasa. The Potala Palace is a UNESCO site that was once the winter home of the Dalai Lama. It was on our bucket list for a long time and it did not fail to impress. It is a huge building, with thousands of pilgrims visiting and praying. The palace itself is very high up, so we had to walk up many stairs, slowly since you don\u2019t want to over exert yourself due to the high altitude and less oxygen.\nEntrance to the Dalai Lama\u2019s residence\nUp on top of the Potala Palace where the Dalai Lama would live\nView of the city from the Potala Palace\nStreet in Lhasa\nDay 3 \u2013 Sera Monastery, Drepung Monastery, Jokhang Temple, Norbulingka Palace (summer home of the Dalai Lama), and Barkhor Bazaar. It was an amazing experience to visit these holy Tibetan Buddhist sites, as you can feel a sense of peace at these places. The tour guide taught us many things about Buddhism and we learned to appreciate it more.\nEntrance of Sera Monastery\nWatching the monks debate in Sera Monastery\nEntrance of the Norbulingka (summer palace)\nIn front of the building where the Dalai Lama stayed at in the Norbulingka\nTibetans pray in front of the Jokhang Temple (holiest temple in Tibet)\nA courtyard inside Jokhang Temple\nDay 4 \u2013 Today we began our drive from Lhasa to Everest Base Camp. The drive is about 8 hours and we finally arrive in Shigatse, the second largest city in Tibet. During the drive, there are a lot of Chinese checkpoints along the way. At each checkpoint, the tour guide had to present our paperwork to the authority before we are allowed to continue. In addition, there are \u201cspeed control\u201d between each checkpoint. Basically, if we arrive at the next checkpoint too early, we have to sit in the car and wait about 10-20 minutes until the designated time we are supposed to be at that checkpoint before we can continue. However, there are many beautiful sites we stopped along the way to Shigatse.\nYamdrok Lake \u2013 One of the three largest sacred lake in Tibet\nLunch at a restaurant en route to Mt. Everest. The temperature was in the 30s and there is no heat in any of the building.\nA stop along the way riding a Yak with the backdrop of glaciers and Tibetan flags.\nVisiting a monastery along the way\nDay 5 \u2013 From Shigatze we continue on to Everest Base Camp. This is another full day of driving with some sightseeing along the way. The landscape of Tibet is really nice but really barren with not a lot of trees. It is mostly just dessert and dry land throughout the whole way with a few rivers and lakes. There are not many restaurants along the way, except for a few that are located at the different towns.\nThe road leading to Everest Base Camp. You can see Everest from afar.\nView of Everest and other mountain ranges from afar.\nWe finally arrived at Everest Base Camp at around 6 PM. The sun was still shining bright and there were no clouds covering the mountain, so we had a really clear view of Everest. We took plenty of pictures and were thankful to be able to see it in clear weather. In the original schedule, we were supposed to stay overnight at Rungbuk Monastery, which is the only \u201chotel\u201d that is opened and available during the winter at Everest Base Camp. However, due to the lack of tourist and cold weather, the monastery was closed so we did not stay there overnight. Instead, the driver drove us all the way back to Shigatze, which is another 6-7 hours drive. We made back to the hotel at 1 AM that night. Once arriving at the hotel, the only thing we ate was the cup noodles we bought previously, as there are no time or restaurants that were open on the way back.\nEntrance to Mt. Everest National Park\nRongbuk Monastery \u2013 the highest monastery in the world\nPicture of us at Rongbuk Monastery with Mt. Everest in the back\nWe couldn\u2019t stay at Rongbuk Monastery hotel because it was closed and according to our tour guide this was the first time it had happened. They informed us that the monks closed the monastery as there weren\u2019t much visitors to go down for the winter as it was bitterly cold. Can you imagine living there without heat? If you are to go on this tour during the recommended month of April-May, you will get to stay in the monastery at the base camp overnight, and be able to enjoy the sunrise in the morning. However, do note that the monastery has no heat or running water and very basic accommodations. We think this was a blessing in disguise as we didn\u2019t think we could stay a whole night at Rongbuk under this frigid weather without any heat. Though the drive back to Shigaste was long but we were glad to not have to stay overnight in such a cold environment.\nDay 6 \u2013 Today we started our drive back to Lhasa. The route driving back is different than the route going to Everest as it is shorter with less sightseeing. We were both very happy to have seen Everest, but after a few days of being in the car in remote places, we looked forward to getting back to Lhasa where the hotel have heat with much more lively environment.\nView of barren land on the roads\nView of a beautiful lake\nDay 7 \u2013 Arriving back in Lhasa, we spend the remaining day exploring the city, seeing the remaining sites that were did not get to see previously. We really enjoyed our time in Lhasa.\nSupermarket in Lhasa\nLast view of Potala Palace\nDay 8 \u2013 Today is the last day and we headed to the airport for our flight back to Kathmandu.\nVisiting Tibet and getting to see Mt. Everest was definitely a trip we will always remember. Tibet is a land with so much rich religious history that you must visit to experience their beliefs and cultures. We don\u2019t know what will happen to the Tibetan people in the future but we pray for them and their land. And Mt. Everest, the grand majestic mountain of all, will never be forgotten.\nPosted in General, Guide, How To Get there, International, Photography, SceneryTagged Lhasa, Mount Everest, TibetBy yolocouple3 Comments\n3 thoughts on \u201cTibet and Mount Everest \u2013 An Unforgettable Experience\u201d\nI\u2019ve stumbled upon your blog by googling Dubai.

Thanks for sharing it.\nSo poignant. Thank you for sharing.\nA story worth the time to read Jan 10, 2019 17:43:47 GMT MDscrapaholic, peace, and 5 more like this\nI was a young waitress in Houston, Texas in 1982 when AIDS was still \"new\" in the US. We had yet to hit the first anniversary of the report published in MMWR of the 5 previously healthy young men in LA with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome - the very first reported cases in the US. Most of the servers in my restaurant were men, and most of those men were gay. Gay men were in the \"Four-H Club\" of people who were considered most likely to have the disease. Four-H Club stood for hemophiliacs, homosexual men, heroin users, and Haitians/people of Haitian origin.\nIt was the first time I was around people who were openly homosexual. To say the gay men were very scared of catching \"The Gay Plague\" is an understatement. The gay women at the restaurant were not afraid. No one even knew what it was. How it spread was barely understood. There was no cure for GRID (Gay Related Immune Deficiency), as it was called.\nIt was the first time I ever saw two people of the same sex give rings to each other to signify any kind of unity. There was no such thing as same sex marriage. Hell, no one I knew then ever thought there would ever be same sex marriage!\nIt was the first time I witnessed an argument between a couple because he wanted to keep prostituting himself and his boyfriend wanted him to stop.\nIt was also the first time I ever saw a man in drag tripping on LSD wait on a table of cops.\nIt was a time of a lot of firsts.\nIn 1984, the links between HIV and AIDS were discovered and hotly debated. It became possible to test for HIV (Human Immunodefiency Virus). The early stages of AIDS were then named ARC (AIDS-related complex) and were separated from full-blown AIDS. The term ARC was widely discontinued by 2000 in the US as lab criteria continued to improve. By this time, it was understood that females could get HIV through sex. Of the 3,064 diagnosed AIDS cases in the US, 1292 had died.\nBut it wasn't until 1985 that a movie on NBC, An Early Frost, became the first program on TV to address the AIDS epidemic in an attempt to humanize those who were suffering with the \"gay cancer.\"\nIn 1987, CBS's Designing Women pioneered the discussion of AIDS and delivered one of the most epic Julia Sugarbaker moments of all time. In the episode, titled \u201cKilling All the Right People,\u201d a young gay man and friend of the designers named Kendall, played by Tony Goldwyn (Scandal), asks the women to design his funeral because he is dying of AIDS complications. The ladies of Designing embrace the young man and take an opportunity to educate the public on how HIV is and isn\u2019t transmitted. When an acquaintance of the designers learns about Kendall\u2019s diagnosis, she is appalled by the ladies\u2019 willingness to help him.\nImogene: \u201cAs far as I\u2019m concerned, this disease has one thing going for it: It\u2019s killing all the right people.\u201d\nIt is then that Julia Sugarbaker, played by the dynamic Dixie Carter, counters the woman\u2019s hurtful words with what is possibly the best response ever to ignorant and stigmatizing views of HIV.\nJulia Sugarbaker: \u201cImogene, get serious, who do you think you\u2019re talking to? I\u2019ve known you for 27 years and all I can say is if God was giving out sexually transmitted diseases to people as punishment for sin, then you would be at the free clinic all the time!\u201d\nIn 1988, on the soap opera All My Children on ABC, a young mother, Cindy, who had contracted AIDS from her IV drug using husband before his death is ostracized by many Pine Valley residents and a hate group burns down the home where she is staying. Cindy & a major, wealthy character (Stuart Chandler) meet, fall in love and marry even as she becomes progressively more ill. Cindy's inevitable death was deeply mourned.\nAlso in 1988, popular Olympic champion Greg Louganis made an uncharacteristic error and hit his head on the edge of the three-meter diving board during the Seoul Summer Olympics. The impact opened a gash that bled into the water, forcing Louganis to reveal that he was gay & HIV positive. It was a stunning revelation on top of the shock of seeing him hit his head on the board. In an instant, rules began being reviewed and new awareness of AIDS spread around the globe.\nIn the early '90s, the TV show Life Goes On had a character named Jesse (Chad Lowe) who was a straight teenager with AIDS. He had been infected by an older girl, and there was a lot of drama when he fell in love with another teenage girl. AIDS was still a death sentence.\nSometime in the early(?) '90s, I received a magazine, I believe it was Parade Magazine (but I can't find reference to it) that had an article of several men who were beating the odds and living with AIDS. They were the very first to survive for several years.\nAnd the Band Played On, the 1993 HBO movie with a cast that included Matthew Modine, Alan Alda, Richard Gere, Lily Tomlin, Angelic Huston & Swoosie Kurtz \"riveted TV audiences\" chronicled the pain and injustice that defined those early years of AIDS.\nAlso in 1993, Tom Hanks won an Academy Award when he starred in the movie Philadelphia for his amazing portrayal of a homosexual man dying of AIDS and the humanity that was stripped from him as the disease progressed. Acting as his own attorney, Hanks' character (Beckett) begins to research how to prosecute the discrimination he faces from the employers who fired him for having AIDS. Beckett dies with his life partner at his side. It was this movie that opened my eyes to the lack of rights a life partner had in the final days of an AIDS patient's life; how the partner who loved & cared for the ill patient could be turned away at the hospital by the family that had ousted & shunned the dying person during their life. This is what made me want legal recognition of some form of same sex marriage with all the rights thereof, even though I didn't want it to be called \"marriage\" until much later.\nBy 1995, complications from AIDS was the leading cause of death for adults 25-44 years old. About 50,000 Americans died of AIDS-related causes. African Americans made up 49% of AIDS-related deaths. This was the peak of AIDS as the leading cause of death.\nIn 1997, Ellen DeGeneres made TV history on the Ellen show by coming out as a lesbian and then kissing another woman on TV, and new HAART treatments caused a 47% decline in the death rate.\nIn 2003, the FDA approved a test that can identify AIDS in 20 minutes.\nIn 2009, photos of Adam Lambert in drag began circulating on social media. Adam was a favorite contestant on American Idol at the time. The photos came as a shock at first, and then ... no one seemed to care.\nIn 2017, studies showed \"that a person living with HIV who is on regular antiretroviral therapy that reduces the virus to undetectable levels in the blood is NOT able to transmit HIV to a partner during sex. The current consensus among medical professionals is that 'undetectable = untransmittable.' \"\nTo a number of the people who will read this thread, many of the things I have listed happened before they were born. That's a little hard for me to get my head around, but there it is. Just because I know these things does not mean that those who are younger do as well. As the article from the OP shows, maybe it's time we do begin to tell our stories.\nLast Edit: Jan 11, 2019 1:47:31 GMT by leftturnonly\nA story worth the time to read Jan 10, 2019 19:52:41 GMT leftturnonly, M in Carolina, and 1 more like this\nPost by vi on Jan 10, 2019 19:52:41 GMT\nI have deep admiration for this lady.

This is the kind of people Jesus wants His followers to be.\n\u201cThen the King will say to those on His right, \u2018Come, you who are blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world. For I was hungry, and you gave Me something to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave Me something to drink; I was a stranger, and you invited Me in; naked, and you clothed Me; I was sick, and you visited Me; I was in prison, and you came to Me.\u2019\nThen the righteous will answer Him, \u2018Lord, when did we see You hungry, and feed You, or thirsty, and give You something to drink? And when did we see You a stranger, and invite You in, or naked, and clothe You? When did we see You sick, or in prison, and come to You?\u2019 The King will answer and say to them, \u2018Truly I say to you, to the extent that you did it to one of these brothers of Mine, even the least of them, you did it to Me.\u2019\u201d Matthew 25:34-40\nI just saw a commercial for BeyondIdo.org about discrimination against LGBTQ and that it\u2019s still legal in 31 states. I think people forget that there was also Old Testament verses used as an excuse for discrimination against minorities. As leftturnonly said, people were being denied next of kin rights because they were gay. That\u2019s not right. Being denied medical care because the doctor doesn\u2019t agree with your lifestyle isn\u2019t right.\nDiscrimination based on on lifestyle and religion is also dangerous because it\u2019s close to Muslim sharia law. Remember the Pharisees and Sadducees who judged people during Jesus\u2019 life and tried to control people an ultimately had Him killed? Conversion camps that torture children aren\u2019t Christian.\nThe US was purposely founded because of religious persecution by the Catholic Church and Catholic controlled monarchs like Queen Mary \u201cBloody Mary\u201d Tudor and Puritan Oliver Cromwell who had Charles I, son of King James, famous for the KJV version of the Bible, beheaded and persecuted Catholics. People fled to the US to escape governments who allowed discrimination.\nWe we need more people like this woman who did the right thing regardless of what everyone else did and personal cost.\nSouthern Side eyed Pea\n\"Unless we each conform, unless we obey orders, unless we follow our leaders blindly, there is no possible way we can remain free.\"\n~Major Frank Burns, 'Novocaine Mutiny' M*A*S*H\nThanks so much for sharing that story.

It is inspiring to read. I was a young adult at the same time she was caring for so many people and I cannot imagine taking that on myself at that point in my life. I really admire all she did and am happy to see her getting some recognition for all the sacrifices she made for all those years. She deserves some kind of a humanitarian award!\nPost by SockMonkey on Jan 13, 2019 15:56:33 GMT\nIf this history/topic speaks to you, read \"The Great Believers\" by Rebecca Makkai.

        "raw_content": "No State \u2013 For Now. Meanwhile, PA Security Forces Work with Hamas\nTuesday, December 30th, 2014 @ 10:22PM\nLeft: Hamas-affiliated Al-Aqsa TV commentator reports on the graduation exercises of the national security forces\u2019 officers\u2019 training course. In the background on the left is a poster of Ibrahim Daoud al-Bala\u2019wi, a national security force operative who also belonged to the Izz al-Din al-Qassam Brigades and was killed in Operation Protective Edge.\nFor now, the Arabs living in Judea and Samaria and Arab coalition bid for a Palestinian State was defeated at the United Nations Security Council. Australia and the United States opposed the bid and five other members abstained, including the United Kingdom.\nHowever, eight other members, including France, China, Russia, Luxembourg and Jordan supported the bid. Why? Why support the establishment of a terrorist state?\nThe French apparently experienced an \u201curgent need to act,\u201d and were disappointed when their hazardous action failed and urged the Council \u201cto try again, before it\u2019s too late.\u201d\nUS Ambassador Samantha Power\u2019s explanation of the U.S. \u201cno\u201d vote failed to acknowledge the Palestinian terrorism against Israel. \u201cWe voted against it because\u2026peace must come from hard compromises that occur at the negotiating table.\u201d\nPerhaps she missed the latest report by the Meir Amit Intelligence and Terrorism Information Center on the Palestinian national security forces\u2019 cooperation with Hamas. The report explains:\nThe national security forces are an important internal security apparatus in the Gaza Strip. They were reestablished when Hamas took over the Gaza Strip in June 2007 as part of the reorganization of the internal security networks that operated there under the Palestinian Authority regime. Since the reorganization they have been controlled by Hamas and so far there has been no change.\nThe main mission of the national security forces since 2007 has been to oversee the Gaza Strip borders and supervise activity at the crossings. That enabled them to support the Izz al-Din al-Qassam Brigades\u2019 smuggling activities, and in several instances they participated in smuggling arms and equipment for the Izz al-Din al-Qassam Brigades. They have also been involved in military-terrorist activities against Israel. They have extensive connections with the Izz al-Din al-Qassam Brigades, Hamas\u2019 military-terrorist wing and have worked with them closely.\nWhen the Palestinian national consensus government was established the national security forces officially became subordinate to the Palestinian ministry of the interior in Ramallah. However, their subordination exists only in theory. In reality, Hamas continues to control the national security forces and uses them for military purposes. That can be seen by the fact that the three senior commanders who participated in the graduation exercises were all appointed to office by the de facto Hamas administration before the establishment of the national consensus government. One of them, Hussein Abu A\u2019dhra, (commander of the internal security forces in the Gaza Strip), who briefed the graduating operatives on simulating the attack on an IDF post, was dismissed by Mahmoud Abbas and stripped of his rank (because of blunders he made during the Hamas putsch of the Gaza Strip in June 2007).\nThere are Izz al-Din al-Qassam Brigades terrorist operatives who double as operatives in the national security forces and in other internal security networks in the Gaza Strip. Proof can be found on lists of those killed in Operation Protective Edge and other past events. Double identities allow Hamas to employ military-terrorist operatives in its security forces, give them governmental \u201clegitimacy,\u201d and pay their salaries with funds earmarked for members of the internal security networks in the Gaza Strip.\nLeft: Death notice for Ibrahim Daoud Abd al-Fatah al-Bala\u2019wi posted on the website of the national security forces in the Gaza Strip, July 8, 2014. Right: Death notice for al-Bala\u2019wi posted by the Izz al-Din al-Qassam Brigades.\n*This is an excerpt from \u201cHamas\u2019 Izz al-Din al-Qassam Brigades and National Security Forces Exercises Simulate Takeover of IDF Posts near Gaza Strip and Abduction of Soldiers\u201d published by The Meir Amit Intelligence and Terrorism Information Center on December 29th, 2014.\nCategories: ACD/EWI Blog, Hamas, Israel, Latest News, Middle East Conflicts, Palestinian terrorism, U.S. Policy",

        "raw_content": "\u2190 Acura at the 2019 Sundance Film Festival\nHonda Celebrates 50 Years in Australia with Golden NSX \u2192\nJan 30, 2019 \u2013 TORRANCE, Calif.\nSuper Handling All-Wheel Drive\u2122 (SH-AWD\u00ae) performance technology spans four generations, currently available on 5 of 6 Acura models\nGlobal sales of SH-AWD-equipped Acura vehicles to top one million in 2019, with more than 925,000 sold to-date\nAcura is celebrating the 15th anniversary of its industry-leading Super Handling All-Wheel Drive\u2122 (SH-AWD\u00ae) technology with a new video that illustrates SH-AWD\u00ae\u2019s performance prowess and unique history. Acura\u2019s groundbreaking SH-AWD\u00ae technology has long set the bar for performance-enhancing torque vectoring AWD and is now offered on five of six Acura models in either mechanical (SH-AWD) or electric (Sport Hybrid SH-AWD) form. Additionally, Acura will surpass the one-million mark in global sales of SH-AWD\u00ae-equipped vehicles later this year.\nIn 2004, the first generation of Acura SH-AWD debuted on the 2005 RL sedan as the world\u2019s first torque-vectoring all-wheel drive system. The technology, which dynamically distributes engine torque for enhanced handling and cornering performance, has been continuously advanced through multiple generations of development and deployed on Acura\u2019s most popular models. The newest and most powerful generation of mechanical Super Handling All-Wheel Drive (SH-AWD) debuted on the 2019 RDX in June 2018, boasting 40 percent more torque capacity at the rear axle, quicker front-to-rear torque transfer and 30 percent quicker transfer of torque between the left and right rear wheels.\nAcura SH-AWD was expanded into the electrified realm with the launch of Sport Hybrid SH-AWD in the 2014 RLX Sport Hybrid. This was followed by the second generation NSX, the only electrified supercar on sale today, and 2017 MDX Sport Hybrid. Sport Hybrid SH-AWD utilizes instantly available electric motor torque to elevate dynamic performance and efficiency. The Acura MDX and RLX apply a rear-mounted Twin Motor Unit (TMU) and front-mounted gas-electric hybrid engine, while the Acura NSX features a unique mid-engine sports car configuration with a front-mounted TMU. Despite configuration differences, all three Sport Hybrid models apply the same technology and utilize many of the same components across supercar, SUV and sedan.\nAcura SH-AWD: Through the Years\n1st Generation SH-AWD\nApplied on: About:\nRL (2005-2012) The world\u2019s first all-wheel drive platform that actively and continually distributes torque not only to enhance traction, but also to elevate cornering performance. By overdriving the rear wheels SH-AWD can provide an inward yaw moment while accelerating into and through corners.\n2nd Generation SH-AWD\nZDX (2010-2013) SH-AWD is enhanced with Hill Logic that automatically adjusts the front/rear torque split based on the grade of the underlying surface as well the integration of Vehicle Stability Assit (VSA) and, in 2009, Traction Control Systems (TCS). The rear differential is constantly overdriven by 1.7 percent.\n3rd Generation SH-AWD\nMDX (2016-Present)\nTLX (2015-Present) The 3rd generation system utilizes a 25 percent lighter rear differential with reduced friction and increased yaw effect. The rear differential is constantly overdriven by 2.7 percent, providing a greater torque-vectoring effect across a broader spectrum of driving conditions to further enhance cornering capability.\n4th Generation SH-AWD\nRDX (2019-Present) The newest version of Acura\u2019s mechanical SH-AWD is more compact than before while offering 30 percent faster response and a 40 percent increase in maximum torque capacity.\nRLX (2014-Present)\nNSX (2017-Present)\nMDX (2017-Present) The first and still only electric torque-vectoring system in the world to enhance every element of dynamic performance \u2013 acceleration, braking and cornering \u2013 able to apply both positive and negative electric motor torque with instantaneous response on- and off-throttle.\nFive of the six Acura models sold in North America are made in central Ohio, using domestic and globally-sourced parts, including the ILX and TLX luxury sports sedans (Marysville Auto Plant), the RDX and MDX luxury SUVs (East Liberty Auto Plant) and the Acura NSX supercar, which is built to order at the Performance Manufacturing Center in Marysville, Ohio.",

        "raw_content": "Understanding Draft ESSA School Index Reports Webinar\nDraft school reports containing the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) School Index information will be posted Monday, January 8, 2018, on the private website https://adedata.arkansas.gov/arc. The ESSA School Index is a calculation comprised of multiple indicators that include: achievement, growth, graduation rate, English Learner progress in English Language Proficiency, and School Quality/Student Success indicators for each grade span. Assigning schools to grade spans K-5, 6-8, and 9-12 accommodates differences in the grade levels served as well as ensuring comparability across schools. The required indicators and some of the School Quality/Student Success indicators included in the ESSA School Index vary slightly by grade span. The reports contain information from the 2016-2017 school year statewide assessments, the 2015-2016 four-year and five-year adjusted cohort graduation rates, and 2016-2017 School Quality and Student Success Indicators. The reports are drafts at this time as ADE awaits approval of the Arkansas ESSA application. While the ESSA school index will not be used for federal accountability purposes until the fall of 2018, the 2017 overall score provides districts the opportunity to examine how well all students are being served within each school. The detailed component data also inform the district of areas of strength and areas where further improvement is needed in schools. The draft reports offer schools an opportunity to begin planning conversations about how to use the information to inform local cycles of inquiry for improvement.\nAll schools are invited to participate in a webinar at 1 p.m. Tuesday, January 9, 2018, to discuss the draft reports. Webinar participants will gain knowledge about the weighted indicators in the ESSA School Index and how to read the school reports. Questions may be submitted during the webinar or by posting questions to https://goo.gl/forms/tuPJGntUClJ00mNj1. Questions from the webinar will be developed into a Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) document that will be posted on the Arkansas Department of Education\u2019s ESSA webpage. Additional webinars will be scheduled in the future to discuss more details about accountability. Schools should review the draft reports and informational documents prior to the webinar on January 9, 2018. Pre-registration for the webinar is not required. Instructions for attending the webinar are listed below.\nWhen: 1 p.m. January 9, 2018 Central Time (U.S. and Canada)\nTopic: Understanding Draft ESSA School Index Reports\nDial: US: +1 646 558 8656 or +1 669 900 6833\nThe webinar is limited to 1,000 participants; therefore, schools are encouraged to participate via teams at the district level.\nPresident Obama signed the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) into law on December 10, 2015. ESSA replaces the No Child Left Behind (NCLB) Act of 2001. The Arkansas ESSA application was submitted to the U.S. Department of Education on September 15, 2017. Additional information that the US. Department of Education requested on December 21, 2017, will be submitted in a red-line Arkansas ESSA Plan on January 8, 2018. The Arkansas Department of Education is expecting approval of the Arkansas ESSA Plan in early 2018.

The past year has been busy and exciting \u2013 our production team recorded more than 50 hours of interviews and location footage in the coalfields of central Appalachia and South Wales. Some highlights of this past year\u2019s work on After Coal include traveling to Wales, recording a rehearsal of Cor Meibion Onllwyn (The Onllwyn Male Voice Choir), and a tour of the historic Tower mine site in south Wales. Closer to home in In Harlan County, Kentucky, we followed the Higher Ground project as they created the new community play: Foglights. Higher Ground 4: Foglights played to sell out crowds at four historic sites throughout the county. You can read project director Robert Gipe\u2019s blog to learn more about this powerful project.

        "title": "Paderewski The American Recordings \u2014",
        "raw_content": "Paderewski The American Recordings\nAPR\u2019s five-CD album of Paderewski\u2019s complete Victor recordings (1914-1931) throws down the gauntlet. No pianist since the days of Lisztomania was so lionised. Even a glimpse of Paderewski\u2019s noble profile as he sped past in his \u2018royal\u2019 train caused women to faint. Liszt may have possessed \u2018a smile like a dagger in sunlight\u2019 and prompted animated discussion as to whether his eyes were blue or violet, but Paderewski\u2019s scarcely less legendary charisma could seduce even the most hardy, determinedly critical concertgoer.\nThose who commented on fundamental flaws, of distortion, technical weakness and even \u2018charlatanism\u2019, ran the risk of being labelled pedants, unable to appreciate the finer things (or persons) in life. Since Paderewski\u2019s legions of admirers included such luminaries as Myra Hess, Clifford Curzon, Edwin Fisher and Ronald Stephenson, who is to disagree?\nAgain, Paderewski was seen as the master of \u2018the grand manner,\u2019 of a rich and sadly defunct tradition where the spirit rather than the letter of the score was all-important. To claim, as an American journalist once did, that the Brazilian pianist Guiomar Novaes was \u2018the Paddrooski of the Pampas\u2019 was to pay the ultimate compliment. Even more recently, the novelist Beryl Bainbridge wrote that as a child, she recalled shaking Paderewski\u2019s hand as an inspiring and unforgettable experience. So the legend lives on, fuelled by ever-increasing wonder and speculation.\nIn recordings, however, appearance and reality divide. APR\u2019s invaluable document tells us that Paderewski\u2019s finest hours occurred before he entered the studio. True, there are flashes of what I assume to be his former greatness, yet for the most part these performances are a tired and unstable reflection of past glory. The repertoire is almost exclusively devoted to miniatures, the favoured format of the time, making one long for something more substantial. Even so, it is hard to imagine Paderewski in, for example, the profound reaches of Beethoven\u2019s Op 111 or, by contrast, in the virtuoso glitter of Saint-Sa\u00ebns\u2019 Piano Concerto No 4 (works central to his early career).\nWhat is extraordinary is that Paderewski transcended his mentor\u2019s damning estimation: Theodor Leschetizky may have told him, \u2018You will never be a pianist\u2019, yet he went on to become, after Liszt, the most celebrated pianist of all time. Rudolf Ganz hit the paradox fair and square: \u2018You listen to some of his old recordings and he was perfectly awful. But when he was on the stage, he had such a magnetic personality, and this is what shone through.\u2019\nAlas, time has not been kind to the recordings. Even when you accommodate yourself to a vagary no longer accepted, the constant de-syncronisation of the hands \u2013 almost as if the composer had written quasi arpa over every romantic theme \u2013 it is impossible not to be reminded of Leschetizky\u2019s verdict evident in a continuous sense of strain and instability. There are, of course, exceptions when Paderewski breaks free from his faulty, belated training: Liszt\u2019s \u2018La Leggerezza\u2019 (including a flashing coda by the pianist himself, later partially emulated by Moiseiwitsch) is alive with glistening passage work, fully in accord with the music\u2019s title.\nHe can be gracious and lightly tripping in his own Minuet (there are four versions to choose from) and there is genuine aplomb in his Cracovienne fantastique (it became a speciality of his student, Ma\u0142cu\u017cy\u0144ski). There is a nice sense of the quizzical nature of Schumann\u2019s Prophet Bird and there is no lack of eloquence in the first movement of Beethoven\u2019s Moonlight Sonata. These, however, are mere glimpses.\nThe inclusion of part of a speech given on the anniversary of Paderewski\u2019s American debut (\u2018I have given you my heart\u2026 May God bless all and everyone of you,\u2019 etc) amplifies and confirms the legend. Mark Obert-Thorn\u2019s transfers are masterly. The entire project is of an absorbing historical interest.",

This has all the makings of a great series that hopefully will be around for awhile. I love nothing more than to sit down after a long day of work and read a great mystery. This was a little different for me but in a good way as I learned a little about astrology as I went along. I felt bad for Julia having to deal with her aunt's and what they were going through. I have had two family members with dementia and it is not easy. Then she has this strange young man who claims to be family but things do not seem to be that way with him. This was different from a lot of cozies that I read in that it is not set in a quaint small town but a rather large well known city. But for me that did not take away from the story but added the fuel to give a few more twists and turns to the story. I was kept guessing right up until the end of this book. A good read for me.\nKathleen Costa July 3, 2016 at 11:21 AM\nI am so intrigued by this book and the future series. I am fascinated by astrology having had charts and readings, followed horoscopes, and check the signs to match personalities to friends and acquaintances. Thanks.\nSandy T. July 3, 2016 at 6:39 PM\nThanks Angela for the intro & review of The Madness of Mercury! Sounds like a good read.",

        "raw_content": "The new Super Smash Bros release is popular with Mario lovers everywhere. My kids haven\u2019t stopped talking about it! In it, you\u2019ll find the classic characters like Luigi, Princess Peach, Sonic the Hedgehog, Donkey Kong, Bowser, and Pac-Man.\nBut you\u2019ll also find that other characters have been added to the game as well. There are even twelve special characters that can be unlocked. But you\u2019ll have to play the game well to unlock these characters.\nSuper Smath Bros is a Battle Game\nIf you\u2019re not familiar with Nintendo\u2019s Super Smash Bros, this video game is all about the fighting. Characters battle each other to see who the winner is. You can choose to play as a variety of characters and challenge your friends to a fight to see whose character is tougher.\nPrevious versions of the game only had room for four players at a time, but this release allows you to play with up to eight characters. There are even special stages that you can access only when you\u2019re playing with eight players.\nThe game is free of gore and carries a rating of E 10+ \u2013 which means the game is suitable for everyone ten years old and older. The game is only rated this way due to cartoon violence and mild mischief.\nKids younger than ten can still play if parents approve, and many will find it enjoyable. There are different ways that you can battle your opponents so that it never feels like you\u2019re playing the same game.\nThe most popular way to play is through the timed fight. When the timer runs out, the player who has the highest score will be named the winner. If a match ends in a draw, the game will automatically shift into a sudden death match.\nAnother popular game play mode is stock fight. In a stock fight, both players have several lives. They will fight until one player has no lives left. This makes the game last longer than the timed mode, but the stock fight can be a more satisfying way to beat your opponent.\nWith the Super Smash Bros game, you\u2019ll be able to perform moves like jumping and running. But you\u2019ll also be able to attack and guard yourself. The Guard button brings up a shield that helps you protect your character.\nWith the attack button, you can choose between a neutral attack or a dash attack. Both can be helpful in defeating the other challenger. If you want to practice in fighting mode, you can opt to play against AI opponents.\nThese artificial intelligence opponents are equivalent to playing against the computer. You can adjust how well your AI opponent fights. This can be helpful when you\u2019re just learning the fundamentals and are getting used to the basic movements.\nOnce you\u2019re more advanced, you can make your AI opponent tougher and harder to beat in order to keep challenging yourself. Another exciting feature of the newest Super Smash Bros game is the ability to play with multiple opponents.\nHave you played Super Smash Bros yet? Tell me about your experience in the comments below.\nI\u2019ve been playing Mario Bros games for what seems like forever. I haven\u2019t gotten to this on yet, but I did play the Wii U Mario kart the other day and it was loads of fun. I don\u2019t think I\u2019ve ever been disappointed with a Mario game and most of them are fantastic for kids too.\nThanks for sharing this review. We don\u2019t have a Wii U at the moment; something we\u2019re considering. We don\u2019t really play many video games though, and my daughter is still too young to play them herself.",

        "raw_content": "Posts Tagged \u2018Thomas Ince\u2019\nA visit to Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios in 1930\nA short sixteen years earlier, in 1914, the land was a bare, sandy waste of land. In 1930, the Metro-Goldwyn Mayer studios were valued at $25,000,000.\nIn 1914 a real estate man sat in his office. He owned hundreds of acres of land on the outskirts of Los Angeles and was confronted with the problem of selling them. As it lay, that tract of land was far from pleasing to the eye which increased the problem of selling it.\nSomething had to be done to draw attention to the locations, to give it a glamour which would entice home-seekers. The real estate man decided to forget those acres for the afternoon and go to a movie. But as he was leaving he stopped\u2014Movies! Motion pictures. A studio. Workmen would need land for homes.\nThomas Ince, then a big mogul in motion pictures, was called and offered the land to build a studio. Where?\u201d Ince asked.\n\u201cCulver City,\u201d replied the real estate man.\nSo out to the sanded wastes went Thomas Ince. He built one rickety stage which passed for a studio and began making Western pictures. Ince\u2019s once rickety stage had grown to be three large glassed-in studios. A few years later, Samuel Goldwyn, coming west, bought the works; stages, land and all that went with them. The romance of motion pictures and the studio which eventually became Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer were under way.\nUnder the Goldwyn regime at that studio Will Rogers first came to pictures. Also there was Pauline Frederick, who was one of the most beautiful actresses of her day. Helen Chadwick, Naomi Childers, Sydney Ainsworth, Madge Kennedy, Mabel Normand, Jack Pickford, Tom Moore and Geraldine Farrar, at that time the \u201cCarmen\u201d of them all. These and many more laughed and cried their way in and out of that old studio. Most are but faint memories today.\nRupert Hughes, Rex Beach, Gouverneur Morris, Gertrude Atherton\u2014writers which in their day were as big as any in their game\u2014all saw service at that old Goldwyn studio. It was a training ground for the best.\nIn 1924, Metro Studios and Louis B. Mayer joined hands with Goldwyn and the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer organization and studio was born. It grew into a fairy city. .\nThere were twenty-two complete sound stages. Two of these were monstrous things of steel and concrete. One contained a complete theater, the largest hippodrome stage west of New York City, for theatrical spectacles in films. The stage in the theater was eighty feet long, eighty feet wide and eighty feet high. It had every modern device invented. This is what you see in MGM pictures whenever theatrical sequences are shown.\nAnother stage, the largest in existence, one hundred feet wide and two hundred and fifty feet long, was a steel and glass semi-enclosed building for extra large exterior scenes, such as those shown in The Trail of \u201998. The rest were ordinary, huge steel and wood stages made soundproof by being lined with a composition. .\nIn these studios daily could be seen John Gilbert, Norma Shearer, William Haines, Marion Davies, Ramon Novarro, Greta Garbo, Lon Chaney, Joan Crawford and a host of less famous players who were battling their way to stardom.\nA group of concrete buildings were to the left as you entered the main gate. The first three-story building was the one housing the executives. Irving Thalberg was one of them. Louis B. Mayer was another.\nNext there was a three-story concrete wardrobe building. In it were tailor and dressmaking shops, designers\u2019 offices and storage space for the more and 10,000 dresses and costumes MGM kept on hand ready for a moment\u2019s call. With Adrian and David Cox designing them, and \u201cMother\u201d Coulter supervising the making of them, some famous costumes and styles went out to the world from this building.\nJust past the wardrobe was the publicity building and casting office. That small office was where so many came daily only to be told, \u201cSorry, nothing for you today.\u201d Directly across from the publicity building was the commissary; a complete restaurant with dining room, lunch counters and soda fountain. It was run on a non-profit basis, being strictly for the convenience of the studio employees, the stars, extras, cameramen and directors. For years the minimum number of meals which were served there in any one day\u2014except Sundays\u2014was one thousand. And as many as seven thousand were fed in one day during heavy production. It was here that Louis B. Mayer entertained the entire studio at a turkey dinner each year during the Christmas holidays. Never had he had less than 2,500 guests. In addition, the commissary had its own ice and carbonating plant. .\nKarl Dane and Gwen Lee point out the studios schedule.\nDirector\u2019s Row was two stories and ran from one side of the commissary. Here sat Robert Leonard, Sam Wood, Jack Conway, Harry Beaumont and other directors. Around the corner was the fan-mail department. Seven clerks handled an average of 38,000 letters a month addressed to the stars. They were in reality a miniature post office staff, sorting the letters and seeing that each star gets his sack-full every day. It was these men who addressed and sent pictures of the players to those who requested them.\nStrolling further about the fifty-three acre lot were stages back-to-back, stages stuck off in corners, and sets all over the place. There was a building for music and dance rehearsals; a recording building where the voices were recorded. Next a camera building and near it the projection rooms, where daily the \u201crushes\u201d were viewed.\nNearby was the big electrical building. The MGM studio used 2,500,000 kilowatts of juice a year. It had a \u201cconnected load\u201d of 35,000 horsepower\u2014more than enough to light a city the size of Reno, Nevada. .\nBungalow of the Stars\nAround the corner of a stage were bungalows which nestled into the ground and looked like dream houses. They belonged to the stars. Then the make-up department, a little schoolhouse for child actors and more sets.\nMore than 3,000,000 feet of lumber a year was used in building sets; 15,000 gallons of paint; 250 tons of plaster; 4,000 sacks of cement; 15,000 tons of rock; 600 bales of plaster fiber, and 300,000 feet of wallboard. These were for the building of sets only and did not include the materials used to build stages and buildings.\nThe telephone system at MGM was a 1200-unit central switchboard. It was more than enough to adequately serve a city of 3,000 people. .\nIn 1930, out of the 120 buildings and its 2,500 employees, 50,000,000 feet of film was used for the output of motion pictures that was sent to theaters. In any event, it was a far cry from the dinky, rickety one stage that Thomas Ince first erected, to the ten thousand people who were on the lot at one time during the shooting of Ben-Hur (1926). In 1930, Culver City boasted 13,000 as her population. That real estate agent\u2014Harry Culver\u2014was now a multimillionaire.\nTags:Culver City, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, Thomas Ince\nPosted in Book/Film News, Studios | 1 Comment \u00bb",

        "raw_content": "You are here: Home / News EN / Open company in Belarus: what, where and how?\nCompany incorporation in Belarus: brief information and procedures\nBelarus is a member of EEMA that provides resident great opportunities in the sphere of trade in this market. Having taken the decision to open a company in Belarus, the foreign investor must determine the organizational-legal form of business. When you open a company in Belarus, a foreigner can obtain permission to work on the territory of Belarus, as well as permission for temporary residence in Belarus for a period of 1 year with the possibility of extension. Let\u2019s look at the most popular legal forms for foreign investors:\nLimited liability company (LLC).\nPrivate unitary enterprise (PE).\nClosed joint-stock company (CJSC).\nOpen joint-stock company (OJSC).\nOpen company in Belarus: Limited Liability Company.\nWhen the organizational-legal form of the founders shall not bear liability for the obligations of a legal person. Risks of founders make up their financial participation in the formation of the authorized Fund (capital). The number of founders in an organization can be from 1 to 50. Authorized Fund (capital) is not installed and can be formed within twelve months from the date of state registration of the company. The company has at least a Director or Managing Director (management company), as well as staff accountant or serving accounting company. The founder has the right to decide on the disposition of its shares (sell, donate) or just withdraw from the participants, getting their share of cost.\nAccording to the common system of taxation legal person must pay the following taxes:\n-Value added tax (VAT) is 20%;\n-Profit tax is 18%;\nTaxes on the wages of the employee:\n\u2014 Income tax -13%;\n\u2014 EXPENSES and pension fund \u2014 35%;\n\u2014 Belgosstrakh \u2013 0.6%.\nOpen a company in Belarus: Private Unitary Enterprise.\nIt is worth noting that there is only one founder of this form. This can be either a physical or legal person. The founder is not liable for the obligations of the company and carries risks within the framework of the formation of the authorized Fund (capital). The minimum amount of authorized Fund (capital) is not installed and can be formed within twelve months from the date of State registration of the company. The owner may be a Director of the company, as well as the accounting if it is provided with an appropriate education, and also subject to certain other conditions. In most cases involved accountant or accounting company serving. Either Director or management company own the company.\nOpen company in Belarus: CJSC.\nRegistering the company with such organizational-legal form do not face the large size of the authorized Fund (capital) of 100 basic units, which corresponds to 951.6 US dollars or 1073.02 euros. The number of participants can be from 1 to 50. Authorized Fund (capital) can be formed within twelve months from the date of registration of the legal person. Participants (shareholders) have risks amounting to the value of their shares in the company and are not liable for the obligations of the joint-stock company. Shareholders have the right to dispose of the shares belonging to them (sell, give, exchange), but it is worth remembering that other shareholders have the preemptive right to purchase the shares. At least there must be Director and accountant, one can make a Manager or management company, accounting management services and instruct the accounting firm. Taxation is the same as in LLC.\nOpen company in Belarus: JSC.\nThe participants will have to form the Authorized Fund (capital) of not less than 400 base units, amounting to 3806.42 euros or 4292.06 US dollars.

The shareholders are not liable for the obligations of the company and bear risks amounting to the value of their shares in the company. Shareholders may decide on the disposition of its shares (sell, give, exchange). There must be directors and accountants, or they can replace the Manager (a management company) and, accordingly, the accounting firm. Taxes are the same as in the total taxation system of LLC.\nAll of the above organizational-legal forms of companies are entitled to apply in their activities and simplified taxation system.

It is what keeps us connected to the naturalworld, and in some aspects, it can be used as an ice breaker, and can even inspire newfound courage in those with weak hearts. It can even be used in self defense, when the situation is clouded by violent overtones, reason is lost on the aggressor(s), sometimes it is just best to flee the situation.

        "raw_content": "It\u2019s amazing the things you can learn on your way to finding out about something else. I was at the website of the Advertising Standards Authority to read their decision in the complaint about the Mitre 10 commercial. I scanned the list of decisions and found one entitled \u201c08/628 - Right to Life New Zealand Newspaper Advertisement\u201d. I know that RtLNZ is a far-right christianist group, as the name suggests, so I had to have a look.\nIt turns out that someone filed a complaint with the Authority over an ad RtLNZ placed in the Christchurch Press the day before the last election (and I never saw this mentioned in the mainstream media). The advertorial-style ad was headlined, \u201cThe Government\u2019s secret agenda for social engineering?\u201d (boldface was in the ad). The three subheadings were \u201cThe first attack could be on the unborn child,\u201d \u201cThe second attack could be on the elderly and the seriously ill,\u201d \u201cThe third attack could be against the institution of marriage.\u201d It was this third section that was the source of the complaint.\nThe complete text under the third heading was: \u201cThe institution of marriage is exclusively confined to one woman and one man; it is the foundation stone of civilised and stable society. In a letter to the Right to Life, dated 20 October 2008, Jeanette Fitzsimons, leader of the Green Party stated: \u2018As a specific Green Party policy, we state that rainbow and heterosexual partnerships are equally entitled to respect and support. We support the extension of all legal partnership arrangements and rights to same-sex couples\u2019. The Greens therefore support legislation to provide for same sex marriage.\u201d What any of that has to do with abortion\u2014RtLNZ\u2019s focus\u2014is beyond me. But, I digress\u2026\nIn fact, the Green Party did not support same sex marriage, but did support Civil Unions. The complainant felt that \u201cRight to Life have misrepresented the Green Party on the day prior to the 2008 general election with an advertisement in a prominent part of a widely distributed newspaper. The advertisement may have had an adverse effect on the Green Party election result.\u201d That\u2019s obviously true, but did it breach the Code of Ethics?\nThe Chairman ruled that two provisions were relevant. First, \u201cRule 2: Truthful Presentation\u201d requires that advertisements should not be \u201clikely to deceive or mislead the consumer, makes false and misleading representation, [abuse] the trust of the consumer or [exploit] his/her lack of experience or knowledge. (Obvious hyperbole, identifiable as such, is not considered to be misleading).\u201d The second was \u201cRule 11: Advocacy Advertising\u201d, which says that while expression of opinion is essential for a functioning democracy, \u201copinion should be clearly distinguishable from factual information.\u201d\nThe Authority also had to consider freedom of expression guaranteed by the Bill of Rights Act 1990. However, Section 14 of that act does make clear that in advocacy advertising, opinion and fact must be clearly identifiable. Moreover, freedom of expression is not absolute, as it could infringe on another person\u2019s rights. The Code is there \u201cto ensure there is fair play between all parties on controversial issues.\u201d However, robust debate also ought to be encouraged. It would seem to be a conundrum.\nThe majority of the Complaints Board held that the line saying \u201cThe Greens therefore support legislation to provide for same sex marriage.\u201d \u201cwas presented as a statement of fact in the advertisement but was in fact the Advertiser\u2019s interpretation of the Green Party policy in relation to legal partnerships.\u201d This placed the ad in violation of Rule 11 because separation of fact and opinion wasn\u2019t clear. So, the complaint was upheld\u2014on a pretty narrow point.\nI fully admit to a little schadenfreude whenever far-right groups get their comeuppance, but I was actually more interested in the way the Board got to their decision (which I think was correct).\nI have no idea what, if any, penalties were imposed, but they would\u2019ve been minor, probably just a requirement for the paper that published the ad publish the decision. In my experience, most newspapers don\u2019t review ads very carefully (except for ones making therapeutic medical claims). There\u2019s a wall between advertising staff, who are working to meet sales targets, and the editorial staff who put the paper together. Sometimes someone on the editorial staff will query an ad they see on a page proof, but not always, and even if they do, very often nothing is done (even ads with bad grammar or punctuation are often left alone).\nI hope that the wingnuts at RtLNZ learned that they can\u2019t get away with misrepresenting their opponents' positions. I certainly learned a bit more about how complaints are handled, and that could be useful if I ever lodge one. But the main thing is that the voters lost out in this, deprived of fair and honest debate by an extremist group determined to misrepresent the truth for their own political ends, and by a newspaper that was far more interested in money than vetting ads. I hope we all learn something from that.\nLabels: Gay Rights, LGBT, Marriage Equality, Media, NZ Politics, Wingnuts\nProgressive greed\nLast week I wrote about big business feigning concern for the public good in order to promote their narrow business interests. I called their slick PR move \u201cone of the baldest examples of corporate greed\u201d. A saga complete with similar tactics has just ended and it, too, is an example of corporate greed.\nAustralian-owned supermarket operator Progressive Enterprises fought the opening of a competitor\u2019s supermarket using all sorts of legal manoeuvres to avoid competition\u2014something they adamantly denied they were doing. Quite frankly, I don\u2019t know a single person who believed their spin.\nTwo decades ago, New Zealand-owned cooperative grocery store chain Foodstuffs\u2014the slightly larger supermarket operator in New Zealand\u2014bought a large corner site in an area of North Shore City called Wairau Park. They fought for years to get the appropriate consents to build their \u201cbig box\u201d Pak \u2018N Save supermarket on the site, finally getting the go-ahead in 2004, and construction began.\nProgressive started its manoeuvres and won a halt to construction; all Foodstuffs could do was close-in the building and make it weather-tight, but they couldn\u2019t finish it or open the store. The legal manoeuvres continued four years as Progressive filed one silly objection after another.\nLate last year, Foodstuffs cleared the final hurdle in the Environment Court, and moved to complete the store for opening early this year. Naturally, Progressive wasn\u2019t done: They filed their final appeal and asked for a stay to prevent the Pak \u2018N Save from opening while the legal manoeuvres went on.\nIn addition to supposedly fretting about the consents and District Plan processes, Progressive claimed they were interested in traffic flows a kilometre away from the Pak \u2018N Save store. Yeah, right: They were clearly interested in preserving a near monopoly in the area. There are seven grocery stores in the \u201ccatchment\u201d area of the Pak \u2018N Save and\u2014surprise, surprise\u2014six of them are owned by Progressive. The seventh store they grudgingly sold to Foodstuffs only when ordered to do so during the merger of two Australian-owned chains; otherwise, they would\u2019ve had all seven (this is ignoring smaller stores in the area that are clearly not supermarkets).\nProgressive got a business group located a few kilometres away to join their objections, supposedly in the interest of their business area. Oh, and quite coincidentally\u2014of course!\u2014Progressive has a grocery store in that association\u2019s shopping centre. No connection, of course, none at all, although Progressive had begun making threats about abandoning town centres if they lost, which would affect areas like the one the business group represented.\nYesterday, Progressive lost their final delaying tactic, as was inevitable: The High Court dismissed Progressive\u2019s appeal. Foodstuffs hopes to have their new Pak \u2018N Save open by May, bringing 250 jobs with it.\nI\u2019ve been a customer of various Progressive stores since before the Australians bought the chain, and I still am. I\u2019ve shopped at one particular store\u2014one of those six I mentioned earlier\u2014for most of the years I\u2019ve been in New Zealand, but clearly that loyalty has been misplaced. If they want to treat their customers as imbeciles, and with utter contempt, they shouldn\u2019t expect to be rewarded for it.\nWhen the Pak \u2018N Save finally opens, I plan to shift nearly all of my business to that store. However, different stores carry different products, so it may not be possible for me to take all my business away from Progressive, much as I might like to. We\u2019ll see.\nAt least this silly battle is finally over. I\u2019d hate to see how much the companies have rung up on their lawyers\u2019 tills.\nProgressive\u2019s stores are Countdown, Foodtown, Woolworths, Fresh Choice and SuperValue. Foodstuffs stores are Pak \u2018N Save, New World and Four Square.\nThe Mitre 10 commercial above is, for most people, cute, funny, maybe a bit cheeky, but clearly all in good fun. One person, however, didn\u2019t agree and filed a complaint with the Advertising Standards Authority calling the commercial \u201cracist towards Australians\u201d.\nThe relevant section is where the boy wearing an Australian rugby jersey refuses to help his mates with a Saturday project, declaring \u201cMate, you\u2019re dreaming!\u201d The camera cuts to the other two boys, one says \u201cAussies.\u201d To which the other responds, \u201cNo surprises there.\u201d\nI have no idea if the complainant was serious or just taking the mickey, but if real, the complaint was absurd. The Authority agreed. In their decision (09/006, available here), they said the commercial \u201cincorporated a well established satirical theme which played on the spirit of competition between Australia and New Zealand.\u201d That \u201csatirical theme\u201d can be seen throughout popular culture in both countries.\nAs a result, the Authority ruled that the ad \u201cdid not reach the threshold to cause serious or widespread offence in the light of generally prevailing community standards, and there was no apparent breach of the Advertising Codes.\u201d And there clearly wasn\u2019t. But the ad was funny.\nLabels: Australia, New Zealand, Pop Culture, Video\nSummit\u2019s lows\nParticipants in the upcoming \u201cJobs Summit\u201d sponsored by Prime Minister John Key, which is supposed to help find ways to keep and grow jobs in New Zealand, are overwhelmingly white, male and from business, especially big business. The New Zealand Herald reported on the guest list today.\nAmong the participants are 165 men but only 30 women; there are 20 Maori, 2 Pacific Islanders and one Asian (meaning 172 are white); 118 of the guests are from the business sector: Big businesses (62), finance (22) and 30 from smaller businesses and sector groups, but only 12 are from unions; there are 30 from central government, 10 from local government and four from state-owned enterprises. Only three are from community organisations, one dealing with disabled people.\nAdd it all up, as the Herald did, and the make-up of the attendees doesn\u2019t look very much like New Zealand. Obviously business must be a major component of this sort of summit, but wouldn't it make sense to have workers, the unemployed and community organisations helping them better represented? And wouldn\u2019t it make sense to have greater participation by Maori and Pacific Islanders in particular, who are among the hardest hit by unemployment? And why no participation by the migrant community?\nI don\u2019t know that anyone really expects anything concrete or even useful to come out of the summit. That\u2019s a good thing, really, because that makes it impossible for the summit to disappoint\u2014the only thing it may do is exceed expectations.\nBut I have to admit I\u2019d feel a bit more optimistic about the summit if it looked a little more like New Zealand, and a little less like a typical National Party gathering.\nRoberta Flack in Auckland\nLast night we went with two old friends to see Roberta Flack in concert at the Civic Theatre. It was a fun evening and everyone attending\u2014including a noticeable GLBT segment\u2014seemed to enjoy the experience.\nI won\u2019t do a real review because I\u2019m not particularly good at it. When I go to a concert, I can\u2019t remember the names of musicians and backing singers (if I can even understand them when introduced), and I can never seem to remember the order of songs. The New Zealand Herald\u2019s review (meh\u2026) is here.\nRoberta appeared here after stops in Australia and on her way to Wellington and Christchurch. It\u2019s the first time she\u2019s been in New Zealand in more than 28 years; the last time she was here she learned of the death of John Lennon and that her own mother was dying. This was a much happier time.\nAt 72 years old, she still has the voice to take on the songs that made her famous. She also performed for the better part of two hours, including playing piano as she sang.\nBack home, she\u2019s big on artists controlling the rights to their own work, and she also works to train people in music. That education work is part of why she had the audience sing lines on a few of her old hits\u2014that, and they\u2019d be singing along, anyway. On her own, she was hauntingly beautiful singing \u201cJesse\u201d, and her other, perhaps less well-known songs didn\u2019t disappoint. Her backing singers and band were excellent, though the sound system sometimes wasn\u2019t. It happens.\nWe didn\u2019t see the opening act because a delay at the restaurant where we had dinner made us late (they were apologetic and gave vouchers; we weren\u2019t angry). The Civic has flat panel TVs in the lobby area that showed the opening act and I\u2019m afraid I didn\u2019t think we missed anything. The reason we were there was to see Roberta, anyway, so the rest didn\u2019t matter.\nIt was a fun\u2014though late\u2014night for us all.\nLabels: AmeriNZ, Auckland, Life in NZ, Music, Pop Culture\nGreen\u2019s aide\nThe announcement of the departure of Green Party Co-Leader Jeanette Fitzsimons, although inevitable, raises questions about the future viability of the party. As Green MPs go, Fitzsimons was on the more conservative side. Many people trusted her personally, even if they didn\u2019t trust or agree with her party. In the last election, a funny poll chose her as the politician that voters would most trust to babysit their children.\nAfter her, what? The Green Party mandates one male and one female co-leader. The male co-leader, Russel Norman, took over after the sudden death of Rod Donald, who, like Fitzsimons, was also respected more than the party generally. Despite environmental activism, Norman doesn\u2019t yet have much of a national presence or identity.\nTwo Green MPs have announced their candidacy so far: Metiria Turei and Sue Bradford. Turei is largely unknown among NZ voters, having entered Parliament in 2002 after working as a resource management lawyer. She\u2019s young, Maori and seemingly not threatening to average voters but, like Norman, her emphasis has been on environmental issues.\nBradford was a leftist activist for some two decades before entering Parliament in 1999. Since then, she\u2019s moderated her image and tone. However, she\u2019s also closely identified with her \u201canti-smacking\u201d legislation and there\u2019s a certain segment of New Zealand who despise her and that law to the core of their being. It could become a distraction.\nI\u2019m not a Green Party supporter, so it doesn\u2019t concern me who becomes the new female co-leader. However, as a centre-left voter, I want a strong party to serve as a coalition partner for Labour, my preferred party. But here\u2019s the thing: Fitzsimons made me feel that I could at least think about voting for the Greens, though I never have, because she was so calm, reassuring and, well, safe. If the new leadership can\u2019t make me feel that way, what hope will they have for winning support from more conservative voters?\nWhoever becomes the next co-leader in June will have about two and half years to establish herself before the next election. If the past is any indicator, National is likely to win re-election (unless they totally screw up) because it takes two to three terms before NZ voters get sick of a party and want change. So, the Greens may have some time to rebuild and, if necessary, re-brand before they\u2019re again within shot of being in a government coalition. That\u2019s a good thing for them. Hopefully, it\u2019ll be a good thing for New Zealand, too\nThe future of the Internet in NZ?\nI don\u2019t think that the opponents of Section 92A of the Copyright Amendment Act are entirely correct in what they say about it. Nevertheless, it\u2019s clearly very bad law and the opponents could be right. That\u2019s why I\u2019m joining the today\u2019s Blackout in the only way I can on a Blogger blog. For more information, go to the Creative Freedom Foundation.\nUpdate 4:37pm: TV3 News reported that the Government announced that it will delay implementation until March 27. Prime Minister John Key said, \u201cWe are hoping that by that time we will have come up with a voluntary code of practice.\u201d If no agreement is reached, Section 92A will be suspended.\nLabels: Internet Stuff, NZ Politics\nImmigration progress\nThe recent reintroduction of the Uniting American Families Act (HR1024/S424) came with 80 co-sponsors in the US House of Representatives and 14 in the US Senate. I wanted to know who the co-sponsors are and, specifically, if my US Representatives and US Senators were co-sponsors (Representative yes, Senators no). I had to go digging for the lists, so I\u2019ve included them below in case anyone who lands on this post is looking for the same information.\nThese lists always grow over time, of course, as more members of Congress add their names. So, at this stage I wouldn\u2019t worry about the absence of some of the well-known supporters of equality, nor the total absence of any Republican co-sponsors. Republicans have often told me that my criticisms of the party are unfair, that not all Republicans in Congress are anti-gay, and that far right christianists aren\u2019t in total control of the party. If they\u2019re right, I\u2019m sure there will soon be Republican co-sponsors, too.\nThe list of sponsors comes from Thomas, a service of the Library of Congress which is extremely useful for anyone needing information on what the US Congress is doing, status of legislation, etc. But it\u2019s not as easy to use as it should be, and offers no way to link to most information. So from time to time I\u2019ll update this list (you may want to bookmark this post). You\u2019ll be able to tell how current the list is by looking at the date at the end of each list.\nIf your US Representative and Senators aren\u2019t listed, it\u2019s time to contact them and ask them to sign on. It\u2019s easy to do, and the Immigration Equality website can help. Passage of this legislation is such a no-brainer that it should be much easier to achieve than it actually will be, but it could also be one issue where our support will make a big difference.\nRelated: I interviewed Julie Kruse of Immigration Equality for my podcast.

With the end of the 111th Congress in December 2010, this bill is now over, so this post will not be updated again.\nLabels: America, Gay expat / Gay expatriate, Gay Rights, Immigration Policy, LGBT, US Politics\nArthur needs\u2026\nI stole this from Bjorn (who stole this from Walt):\nGoogle your name and the word \"needs\" in quotes (\"Arthur needs\") and see what you get. List the first 7 entries. In my case, several were the same and one I kinda edited to make it a sentence. But the point is the fun, right?\n1. Arthur needs space.\n2. Arthur needs a new friend.\n3. Arthur needs Wales.\n4. Arthur needs you!\n5. Arthur needs money.\n6. Arthur needs tidying up.\n7. Arthur needs to discover Twitter.\nLabels: Internet Stuff, Not serious\nWired self interest\nThe three biggest telecommunications companies\u2014Telecom New Zealand, Vodafone and TelstraClear\u2014have banded together to try and stop the National-led Government from fulfilling a campaign promise to dramatically expand New Zealand\u2019s broadband connections and speeds. The companies, who together provide most of the broadband connections in the country, claim to be concerned about the Government spending money in a bad economic times.\nI\u2019ve never seen a better example of corporations promoting their self-interest and trying to deceive people about it. This is, in fact, one of the baldest examples of corporate greed.\nThe three telcos hired consultancy company Castalia to write their propaganda paper. The author, Alex Sundakov, dismissed the need for any government investment (except in some limited areas), declaring \u201cin five years time there are no applications that we currently know or are forthcoming that would not be able to be used given existing technology\u201d [emphasis added]. Got that? Sundakov is the greatest technology genius the world has ever seen! He knows that absolutely nothing will be introduced in the world in the next five years that would require better infrastructure. Whew! I was worried that things might change, but thanks to Sundakov we now know that all technological progress will be halted for at least five years.\nThe self-serving pseudo-justifications in the propaganda are blatantly obvious. Yet Sundakov himself actually stated why the Government should toss this propaganda into the rubbish:\n\"When you ask what a government should be doing you are really asking 'what is it that the private sector isn't providing?' The reason why the Government should be spending money or doing anything is because the market outcomes are not what we want.\"\nExactly! The previous Labour-led Government had to force Telecom NZ into structural separation in order to get competition into both phone and broadband service. Why? Because the \u201cmarket outcomes\u201d were not what we wanted. Telecom New Zealand spent years deliberately delaying action and avoiding cooperation because cooperating would affect their profits.\nThe same thing is true now. The three Telcos all concentrate their efforts in cities because that\u2019s where the people are, leaving the rural areas underserved (as even the propaganda piece acknowledged). But they also invest very, very slowly because, like all business, they need a return on investment. But keeping broadband availability limited also makes it more expensive and so, more profitable\u2014simple supply and demand.\nThe Telcos don\u2019t want the government to roll out fibre optic connections to 75 percent of New Zealanders because with better infrastructure they\u2019d no longer be able to justify relatively slow speeds and very high prices. They would, in other words, have to offer value for money for the first time, and that would lower their high profits.\nSpeaking of which, what do they say is the barrier to faster broadband? It\u2019s the customers, of course! Those pesky customers don\u2019t want to pay obscenely high prices for their broadband, their wiring is old and so are their computers. They\u2019re too cheap! Oh yeah, international bandwidth is expensive, too (they want us to ignore their piece of that business). Besides, the propaganda piece sniffs, the only reason people want the high speeds is to download high-definition movies.\nThe propaganda piece says \u201cour point is you've got to think really long and hard to decide what the problem is and the problem right now seems to be not that there is not enough fibre being strung to the homes.\u201d Of course they\u2019d say that\u2014they don\u2019t want that level of high-speed connectivity. The real problem is with Telcos keeping connections limited, speeds slow and prices high all of which are holding New Zealand back.\nEven accepting the telcos\u2019 propaganda at face value, it\u2019s a boneheaded mindset: \u201cWhat we have is just fine, we don\u2019t need any more\u201d. It sounds like the builders of the Auckland Harbour Bridge who said, \u201cWe\u2019ll never need more than four lanes!\u201d The bridge soon reached capacity and four \u201cclip-on\u201d lanes were added. Now another harbour crossing is needed. It also sounds like the Auckland politicians who passed on building a light rail commuter network because \u201cwe\u2019ll never need that\u201d. Daily traffic congestion shows how stupid and foolish those politicians were.\nI hope that the Government has the good sense to thoroughly reject the telcos\u2019 propaganda and go ahead with its plans. If they listen to the self-serving nonsense in the telcos\u2019 propaganda they\u2019ll be as short-sighted and ignorant as those bridge builders and the politicians who rejected light rail. All those people are now seen as stupid: Surely National doesn\u2019t want to follow that example.\nLabels: Corporate Greed, Internet Stuff, NZ Politics, Science and Technology\nNearly a year and a half ago, I wrote about a New Zealand radio station that made marriage the prize in a contest among three strangers. I mocked the whole thing as an indication that \u201cmarriage really is sacred\u201d.\nMy contempt for that stunt is based on the simple fact that those prizewinners instantly had more legal rights than most American same-sex couples. For that matter, Britney Spears and her 55-hour marriage had more legal force behind it.\nThe Indianapolis Star recently ran a story about an Indiana woman who\u2019s been married 23 times. The fact is, all 23 of those marriages, even her stunt marriage to the \u201cmost married man\u201d, had more legal rights, protections and privileges than any same-sex couple has in Indiana (and most other US states), even if that same-sex couple has been together for decades (the Indiana woman\u2019s longest \u201cmarriage\u201d was her first\u20147 years).\nI think any reasonable person would conclude that this woman is making a mockery of marriage, but the thing is, she can. Because she\u2019s a woman marrying a man, she can get married a thousand times (one at a time, of course) if she wants to, but a same-sex couple in Indiana and most US states can\u2019t marry even once.\nSo when far right christianists attack marriage equality, declaring that same-sex relationships aren\u2019t real, and preaching that heterosexual marriage is a sacred institution, I\u2019ll think of that radio station contest, I\u2019ll think of Britney\u2019s sham marriage and I\u2019ll think of the Indiana woman. Yeah, the christianists are clearly right, and their marriage is far too sacred for same-sex couples who want to make a lifelong commitment to one person.\nApparently, marriage is too sacred for even heterosexuals.\nSeeing the future again\nYesterday I went to an all-day product demonstration from Adobe, the largest producer of graphics software and the inventor of the Postscript computer language that made laser printers\u2014and the desktop publishing revolution\u2014possible. This \u201cAdobe Creative Suite 4 Roadshow\u201d was intended to show off the latest version of their graphics bundle of software, in the hope it may nudge users to upgrade. In the end, I had the strangest feeling of d\u00e9j\u00e0 vu.\nCreative Suite is a powerful set of applications which, depending on the specialised bundle, allows designers to do pretty much anything they want in their chosen area\u2014print design, web design, interactive, video or some combination. Many years ago, I went to a Roadshow for an earlier version and they were touting their \u201cdesign once, publish anywhere\u201d mantra. Quite frankly, they weren\u2019t there yet, but if their demonstrations yesterday are truly representative, I think they may have arrived.\nAdobe is first and foremost a company for designers: Its products promise to take the \u201cgrunt work\u201d out of the design process to, as they might put it, free the user\u2019s creativity. In my own experience, despite a few missteps along the way, each new version of their software has lived up to that promise.\nAdobe claims that their features for preparing files for the web produces \u201ccompletely clean code\u201d (meaning no errors or extraneous stuff). They stressed in their presentations that designers could take their work to the web, cutting out the \u201ccode warriors\u201d. In recent years, the industry has been split: Graphic designers do the creative stuff, then hand it off to web developers (or similar titles) who then re-do the design for the web, sometimes writing the HTML code by hand.\nWhat Adobe is promising\u2014even if only by implication\u2014is that designers will take control of their own work in all its formats, eliminating web developers. Put another way, those creating the content in the first place will control it from start to finish, without handing it off to others.\nI\u2019ve seen this before. When I entered the industry, there were two distinct roles\u2014graphic artists and production artists. Graphic artists were usually trained in art schools using traditional methods and media, such as pencil, pen and markers. They came up with designs that were handed to production artists who used the computers of the day, along with manual techniques, to produce what printers needed. Graphic artists couldn\u2019t use computers and production artists were usually trained on the job.\nThe Apple Macintosh\u2014and especially Adobe Postscript\u2014changed everything. Graphic artists took control over their own production work, taking their designs from concept to print. Production artists adapted to the new technology and began taking over design work, or moving into other areas of printing/publishing. Eventually, the two merged into a single \u201cgraphic designer\u201d label, with rankings by \u201clevel\u201d, the chief difference being skill with particular software, design ability, creativity and experience.\nSo here we are again, with Adobe leading the charge as designers take more control over their work. Web developers will, like production artists before them, move into design work or another area (like tech support). The only bad thing I can see is that designers who work for companies are unlikely to see increased pay for the increased responsibilities, but it could mean survival for small firms or freelance designers. And of course it means greater control over content to ensure that the way audiences interact with that content is consistent across all media.\nAnd by the way, Adobe Creative Suite 4 very possibly could be the greatest thing since sliced bread. But, I\u2019m just a tad biased, having used their products for over twenty years (and I\u2019ve lived to tell the tale). Evolution in the graphics industry is possible for those who seize the opportunities. I bet that will be true in the future, too.\nLabels: Apple, Science and Technology, Uncategorised\nFocused protest\nI want political protests to be focused. By that I mean I want them to have an obvious message and a specific demand. So when I heard about an Internet protest campaign to draw attention to the soon-to-be-implemented Section 92A of New Zealand\u2019s copyright act, I was disappointed to find the whole thing confused, unfocused and a bit pointless. Never mind, I\u2019m taking part in the campaign in a way that makes it more effective and pointed. More about that in a minute.\nThe fight over Section 92A is because it requires Internet Service Providers to terminate the Internet connection of anyone\u2014person, school, business, library, government agency, whatever\u2014accused of repeatedly unlawfully downloading or uploading copyright material. This is where it gets truly ugly: There's no definition of what a repeat offender is or when, exactly, ISPs are required to act. This will be a total mess until Parliament finally repeals it and replaces it with a real copyright law, since no court will be able to figure out what this law is supposed to do or how it's supposed to function.\nAs the clock counts down to implementation on February 28, the Creative Freedom Foundation, which is leading opposition to Section 92A, has been urging a protest campaign in which people turn their icons on Twitter, Facebook, etc., into solid black squares between now and February 23. Now, I\u2019m all for protesting this stupid law, and I think for Internet users, protest is an especially good idea. But what, exactly, is this supposed to accomplish?\nHere\u2019s where I took matters into my own hands: I turned my icon into the black square protest sign accompanying this post. This way anyone seeing it will know what it\u2019s all about and can follow the web address to find out more. By the way, anyone is free to use the icon, as one Twitter buddy is already. At midnight on Monday, February 23, I\u2019m going to post a simple black rectangle in place of a regular post. That will be my only post that day.\nI chose February 23 because the protest graphic at the upper right of this blog implies that February 23 is THE day of protest, so I decided to just go with it. By the way, I had to modify the code to make that banner fit on this blog; if you\u2019d like this smaller version for your site just email me and I\u2019ll send the code to you.\nThe right-wing National Business Review, in a report critical of the law's critics, reported that the new Attorney General, Chris Finlayson, has announced he\u2019ll let the law take effect and wait and see what happens. This is despite his saying as an Opposition MP last April, \"I think this bill is very much a patch-up job and very much what I would call third-rate law reform legislation.\" Now he has the opportunity to fix it, but he won\u2019t.\nThis story is far from over, and no amount of icon blackening is likely to change that. Still, protest for its own sake is legitimate\u2014just as long as it's focused.\nThe Internet Service Providers Association (ISPANZ) statment\nLabels: Internet Stuff, NZ Politics, Politics (general)\nPrivatisation begins\nIf there was one constant criticism of the National Party in last year\u2019s election, it was that the party would begin selling off state-owned assets, which has been among its core party policies for around two decades. The party leader, and now Prime Minister, John Key, pledged there would be no sales of state-owned assets during a first term of a National-led government.\nThey didn\u2019t say anything about not privatising core government services, though.\nNational MP Judith Collins, who is also corrections minister, has announced plans to allow private companies to run New Zealand prisons (though, so far, not to own the prisons). National claims, consistent with party policy, that private companies can do a better job for less money.\nLabour, which outlawed private-run prisons when in government, disagrees: \"Labour believes that it is the role of the public sector to deprive people of their liberty and not the role of the private sector. Prisons are a core public service along with defence and police.\"\nFunny they should mention defence: National MP and defence minister Wayne Mapp has announced that the Territorial Army (similar to the Army Reserve in the US) will be sent on more overseas missions. The move would save money by allowing a smaller regular army, relying instead on part-time soldiers who could be called up when needed. There has been no mention of privatising any defence functions, so this looks to be a cost-cutting move only.\nThe difference between the two plans is that using the Territorials means reallocating Government resources, while the prison plan means abandoning them. I wonder if National is aware of some of the high-profile, spectacular failures among private prisons in the US. At any rate, is it ever a good idea to allow private companies to lock up citizens for a profit?\nI\u2019ve supported some moves by the National-led Government, opposed others and strongly opposed a few. However, I think it\u2019s inexcusable that they\u2019ve continued to use urgency to ram through their agenda without ordinary citizens having the chance to participate in the process. Some of their moves have profound implications that citizens ought to have more of a say on, but National is making sure they don\u2019t, and that\u2019s just plain wrong. I hope citizens are allowed to have input on this plan, unlike the other agenda items National has implemented so far.\nLooking at the pretty ladies\n\u201cWanna go to Queen\u2019s?\u201d My father\u2019s invitation was to go to Dairy Queen, and it was a rare summer treat. There was one Dairy Queen in our city, as far as I remember, and it wasn\u2019t open year round. We used to drive past it in winter and I used to look for signs that the boards over the serving windows were coming down, a better sign of spring than any natural phenomena.\nSummers in Northern Illinois are short, so the opportunities for a trip to the Dairy Queen were limited. My father or mother or both often had meetings in the evening, and my mother didn\u2019t drive, all of which limited opportunities even more. The rarity of the trips made them all the more exciting.\nI usually had a cone dipped in chocolate, sometimes a Dilly Bar or a hot fudge sundae. Once in awhile, I had a Mr. Misty and\u2014just once\u2014I had a Peanut Buster Parfait; I didn\u2019t like it. I can remember my choices, and the way they tasted, with complete and vivid clarity, as if the last 40-odd years had never happened. But I can\u2019t remember what anyone else had.\nAfter we picked up our orders, my father would ask, \u201cShould we go look at the pretty ladies?\u201d We always agreed, and we\u2019d head downtown to look at the mannequins in the shop windows. They stood looking stately, the display light glowing brightly in the darkening evening. Their gaze was always fixed somewhere above the heads of people passing by, as if they had a bored indifference to those marvelling at their style, class and elegance.\nOnce in awhile we\u2019d park and walk down the street, looking intently at the pretty ladies. I wasn\u2019t terribly interested in them, but I was fascinated by the sidewalks: The concrete had little shiny bits mixed in and I thought it looked like the sidewalks had tiny diamonds in them. In some places, small glass squares were embedded, providing light, I learned years after we\u2019d moved away, to a delivery area under the sidewalk; big steel doors in the sidewalk provided the access.\nWe moved away when I was nine. The last time I was in that city I was in my twenties. The department stores, whose brightly lit windows had provided free entertainment, were empty or boarded-up. There was hardly anyone around what had been a vibrant shopping area. The people had moved on to the malls on the edge of town, and in the years after that some would move even further to the big box retailers.\nBut most of those impersonal bargain barns have nothing in their windows except sale banners obscuring views of checkout lanes. Certainly they have nothing to entertain small kids with dripping ice cream cones: Their sidewalks have no diamonds in them, nor any mysterious glass squares. Their bland windows have no attraction, and certainly no pretty ladies, with their elegant poses, staring out into the evening. The bored indifference now belongs to the staff and the patrons, and to little kids who no longer get trips to Queen\u2019s on a warm summer evening, followed by a trip to look at the pretty ladies.\nLabels: AmeriNZ, Illinois, Memories\nToward Immigration Equality\nOn February 12, US Representative Jerrold Nadler (D-NY) and US Senator Patrick Leahy (D-VT) introduced the Uniting American Families Act (HR 1024 and S 424) which, if passed, will give GLBT couples the same immigration rights that heterosexual couples have.\nUnder current US immigration law, US citizens and permanent residents can sponsor their spouses for immigration purposes, but gay and lesbian Americans cannot. This means that if the foreign-national partner can\u2019t obtain a residence permit any other way\u2014green card, work visa, etc\u2014the couple will either be torn apart or they have to move to another country.\nThe Uniting American Families Act would allow US citizens and permanent residents to sponsor their same-sex partners for family-based immigration by meeting the same standard as different-sex couples. This would give the US immigration law similar to many Western nations, including New Zealand, which has had this for well over a decade.\nOne of the main reasons some gave for opposing the bill before is that they assumed that it would be used for fraudulent immigration\u2014as if heterosexuals don\u2019t already do that. At any rate, the bill provides harsh penalties for fraud, including a maximum five years in prison and up to $250,000 in fines.\nThis is clearly a step in the right direction. The US Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) prevents the US Government from recognising legal same-sex marriages performed in any US state or territory or foreign country, meaning that even legally married same-sex couples cannot be treated equally under US immigration law. When DOMA is finally repealed, that may help married same-sex couples, but un-married couples (like those in states that have outlawed marriage equality) will need the protections of the UAFA.\nThe main reason I moved to New Zealand in 1995, rather than Nigel moving to the US, is that the laws here made it possible for us to be together, while the laws of the US prevented it. After more than 13 years here together, our roots are deep and it\u2019s frankly unlikely we\u2019d move to the US. But as an American citizen it ought to be an option for me to sponsor my partner because equality is supposed to be my birthright. The UAFA, in whatever form it\u2019s ultimately passed, will move us another step closer to securing America\u2019s promise of freedom and liberty for GLBT citizens, too.\nUpdate: This post has a follow-up (posted February 22, 2009). The follow-up has a list of co-sponsors in the House and Senate, a list I keep updating.\nReal life does not compute\nYesterday morning, when I was recently out of bed and barely awake, I went to get something out of a junk drawer. I pulled the drawer out a little too far and the drawer and its contents ended up on the floor.\nMy first thought was how much I wished real life had an Edit:Undo command. Well, to be honest, my thought was how I wish I could use the Macintosh keyboard command of Command-Z (which, of course, is Control-Z on a PC). I\u2019m not sure which is weirder, that I first thought of a computer keyboard command, or that I wanted to use it on real life.\nMany people, apparently, would change or edit aspects of their lives if they could. I\u2019m not one of them. Sure there are things I wish had been different, but changing one thing would change other things, and that might mean I wouldn\u2019t be where I am now. So, I\u2019m glad that changing the past is impossible because I\u2019m happy where I am (literally and figuratively) and I\u2019d never risk derailing that.\nStill, there are times when CMD-Z would be a nice option to have.\nBasking in the glow of natural selection\nWe may be a day ahead in New Zealand\u2014and ahead in other ways, truth be told\u2014but today the rest of the world is observing Darwin Day, in celebration of science. Science and religion need not be mutually exclusive but if we\u2019re honest, they almost always are.\nThere are plenty of religious people who accept the fact of science. Some of them believe in what I call the Cheesemaker Hypothesis (and there must be a proper name for this, but that\u2019s what I call it). This belief structure holds that, like a human making cheese, natural forces take their course according to the laws of nature, but from time to time the cheesemaker intervenes.\nWhen I was a Christian, I often said that there was no reason that the Christian God couldn\u2019t have set the forces of evolution in action. I also said that that it could have been the spark behind the Big Bang. Now, I\u2019m not so sure. If there is any god, then my old beliefs could still be true, but the existence of the universe is for me no proof of the existence of any god.\nWhether there is a god or not\u2014and I simply don\u2019t know either way\u2014it\u2019s obvious that species have evolved, and that natural selection is, as Darwin first suggested, the mechanism by which life advances. I simply cannot understand why the Judeo-Christian god couldn\u2019t have chosen to act in that way.\nMy hostility, as I have often said, is not to religion itself, even if I don\u2019t share it, but rather to the politicisation of religion. Science is a fact, not a belief, and not an ideology\u2014it is constantly questioning itself. Why can\u2019t religion do the same?\nGames or worse?\nJudd Gregg, a Republican US Senator from New Hampshire, has abruptly withdrawn from nomination to be Commerce Secretary. He claimed there were major conflicts with President Obama\u2019s actions on the stimulus, conflicts which somehow or other he just didn\u2019t notice when he first expressed interest in the job. He also spoke darkly about the 2010 US Census, which the Commerce Department oversees.\nOn the face of it, this looks like more Republican game playing. After all, he can\u2019t seriously expect us to believe that he didn\u2019t know how much he disagreed with the Administration\u2019s stimulus plans when those plans were well-known before he accepted the nomination. So, he could be playing the Republican game of pretending to be responsible, or maybe he wants to embarrass the president.\nIt could also be a calculated political move looking toward the 2010 elections, in which the Republicans desperately want to regain control of Congress. Gregg said he wouldn\u2019t accept the nomination unless the Democratic Governor of New Hampshire appointed a Republican to fill his seat, so as not to give the Democrats a \u201cSuper Majority\u201d in the Senate. Although highly unusual, the Governor agreed and announced the appointment of a moderate Republican woman who said she would not run in 2010\u2014giving the Democrats a clear shot at taking the seat. So, Gregg may have acted to keep the seat in Republican hands.\nA third possibility is hinted at by his statement, in which he declared that the vetting process that all appointees go through had nothing to do with his decision. Why would that be a potential issue? The day after his appointment was announced, the AP reported that a former staffer, Kevin Koonce, was under criminal investigation in the Jack Abramoff corruption scandal. While working for Gregg, Koonce is alleged to have accepted sports tickets in exchange for legislative favours. Could there be more to this story and investigation?\nGregg may have meant what he said when quit the nomination for Commerce Secretary. But given the partisan games the Republicans are playing, that party\u2019s fear of losing more seats in the 2010 election, Gregg\u2019s own suspect history with the US Census (such as allegedly voting to cut funds so that minorities are undercounted) and given that he is closer to the Abramoff scandal than we knew, there could be something far darker going on here.\nIf the darker possibilities are true, good riddance. But if he was being genuine, however unlikely that may be, it\u2019s all the better to be rid of him. Differing opinions are one thing, actively working to subvert the programmes of the president are another matter entirely. We\u2019re all better off without him.\nThe other bicentennial birthday boy\nCharles Darwin: There probably is no name in history that can cause more arguments in America than that one. Well, actually, it\u2019s one side arguing and the other trying to resist sometimes.\nCharles Darwin was born 200 years ago today, and his influence is still being felt. He is one of the most important scientists the world has seen, and he made possible so much science that goes far beyond his area of study.\nIn America especially, there are people who insist that evolution is a myth, that all the universe is the result of special divine creation that took 144 hours 6,000 years ago. That position is completely irreconcilable with science, and therein lies the problem: Extremist christianists want the teaching of evolution to be banned or, at the very least, reduced to a sideshow alongside religion class.\nTo me, it\u2019s pretty obvious that allowing religion to be taught alongside science in secular public school is an affront to rationality. Permitting it is not being tolerant of religion, it\u2019s denying the reality of science.\nSo, here\u2019s to Charles Darwin, who explained so much of the way the natural world works and made it possible for later scientists to understand even more. Darwin, despite being an agnostic, never tried to ban the teaching of religion.\nA high resolution version of the photo accompanying this post is available for download from Wikipedia.\nLabels: Religion, Science and Technology, US Politics\nToday, February 12, is the bicentennial of the birth of Abraham Lincoln, the 16th President of the United States, the man who saved the Union and ended slavery by winning the American Civil War. There are plenty of Americans who say Lincoln was the greatest president. I\u2019m one of them.\nBut I\u2019m not going to talk about Lincoln and history, nor praise the good or criticise the failings. This post is about Lincoln and me, because no child of Illinois can escape the stovepipe-hatted shadow of the state\u2019s most famous son.\nMy earliest years of life were spent in the centenary of the Civil War. A child\u2019s mind has difficulty telling the difference between a year, a decade or a century, and to me the Civil War seemed not long over, as, indeed, the two world wars seemed to me to have happened somewhat recently.\nThe centenary of Lincoln\u2019s April 15, 1865 assassination happened to fall on Easter Weekend. I was six years old. As we went to Good Friday services that year, I dressed in dark colours, appropriate for mourning the martyred president. Maybe my mind was muddled because only a year and a half earlier we\u2019d buried another murdered president, but at the time it seemed a perfectly reasonable thing to do.\nAt any rate, a year or two later our town built a big new public library and I was there on their open day. We were shown how to use one of those newfangled photocopiers, and I made a copy of some book page. Then I took another book and made a copy of a photo of Lincoln that I framed and hung on my bedroom wall. It would be with me for decades.\nIn my very early teens, my parents took me on a special trip to Springfield, Illinois, where we visited the only home Lincoln ever owned, and the reconstructed Old State Capital, where Lincoln gave his \u201cHouse Divided\u201d speech. We also visited New Salem, where Lincoln lived when he struck out on his own. And, of course, we visited Lincoln\u2019s tomb in Oak Ridge Cemetery.\nTime passed and, as always happens, the interests of childhood and youth fell away. At some point, my framed photocopy of that Lincoln photo disappeared. But my regard for Lincoln never did.\nWithout looking it up, I remembered by heart that Lincoln was the 16th president, and that he was born two hundred years ago in Hardin County, Kentucky. I remembered that his parents were Thomas Lincoln and Mary Hanks Lincoln.\nI don\u2019t know if Illinois schoolchildren are still immersed in the history of Lincoln, but I\u2019m glad I was. It gave me a feeling of personal connection to my state and my country that I\u2019m not sure would or could have happened otherwise.\nAbraham Lincoln did a lot for the United States by preserving it and moving it toward a more perfect union. But he did something for me and other Illinois kids, too. Pretty good legacy, really.\nThe photo accompanying this post is available for download in high resolution from Wikipedia.\nLabels: America, Illinois, Memories\nMore occasional good news\nI like to mix in good news whenever I can, in part to make up for the fact that I\u2019m often critical of one thing or another. I don\u2019t call special attention to that good news, but I decided to start a new tag, \u201cGood News\u201d, for positive posts about positive news.\nToday the news is that Olympic gold medal winning Australian diver Matthew Mitcham has secured a major sponsorship deal with Telstra, Australia\u2019s largest telecommunications company. Mitcham\u2019s final dive received the highest single-dive score in Olympic history. He said of his sponsorship, \"Hopefully, this will have a snowball effect. If I can get the opportunity where I would be able to train without having to worry about paying the bills, that would be the ultimate goal.\u201d\nMitcham is openly gay (among the few Beijing Olympians who were), but he said that he thought that the economic downturn had more to do with his lack of sponsorship than his sexuality. I hope he\u2019s right. In any case, it\u2019s good to see Telstra back Mitcham.\nTelstra operates in New Zealand as TelstraClear.\nFound through Joe.My.God.\nLabels: Australia, Gay Rights, Good News, LGBT\nPay compromise\nNew Zealand Prime Minister John Key announced yesterday that on April 1 the minimum wage will rise fifty cents to $12.50 (today, roughly US$6.76; the current federal US minimum wage is US$6.55, or NZ$12.12). As a centre-left voter, I\u2019d like to see a bigger rise, but I think it\u2019s a good compromise. It will mean 4.2 per cent rise for the approximately 120,000 workers on the minimum wage, while prices rose 3.4 per cent in the year to December. This will help these workers avoid losing ground.\nBusiness lobby groups, of course, didn\u2019t want any increase. However, Business New Zealand chief executive Phil O'Reilly was realistic, saying \"\u2026the Government's decision is pragmatic. I'm a realist, and it's certainly not as bad as it could have been.\" Which kind of suggests that the Government could have increased the wage a bit more.\nAlso predictably, the Unite Union, which tries to organise low-wage workers, said the rise wasn\u2019t enough. The average wage rise in the year ending December was 5.4 per cent.\nThe union wants a citizens-initiated referendum asking if the minimum should be raised to $15 an hour, and then to two-thirds of the average wage within three years. O\u2019Reilly said this proposal was \"utterly ideological\". What, like the positions of the business lobby aren\u2019t?\nThe National Party, which leads this Government, doesn\u2019t generally enjoy any support from unions (the members of which are generally automatically members of the Labour Party). That they\u2019re not also being savaged by the business lobby is probably a good thing for National.\nIf the pay rise had been any lower, I would\u2019ve criticised it. But given the current economic situation, I agree with the Prime Minister when he said, \"I think we have hit the right balance.\" It must be looked at again as the economy improves, but for now, this is a sensible move.\nRepublican fiddle players\nAn old phrase \u201cfiddling while Rome burns\u201d\u2014with its allusion to fully-muddled, imaginary history\u2014is suddenly relevant. It means, of course, being irresponsible or concerned with trivial matters during a crisis. That describes Congressional Republicans precisely.\nWhen President Obama\u2019s economic stimulus package was first announced, some Congressional Republicans praised its balance. That must\u2019ve been before they got the memo because within days they were all marching in lock step in their opposition to the plan. To me, it\u2019s pretty obvious they\u2019re just playing political games\u2014just as they did for the past eight years.\nThere\u2019s no such thing as a perfect stimulus package: Someone, somewhere, regardless of where they are on the political continuum, will complain about something in the package: Perhaps it\u2019s too much here or not enough there. But everyone except the far, far right and self-described libertarians agree that the federal government has a duty to stimulate the economy. It\u2019s a conclusion shared by developed countries around the world.\nSo what\u2019s the Republicans\u2019 problem? Contrary to their constant media posturing, it has absolutely nothing to do with principle or fiscal responsibility. After eight years without either, they\u2019re hardly likely to start now. Instead, what the Republicans are scared to death about is that the plan will work. They\u2019re terrified of any sort of renewed New Deal because they know it will show that, in contrast to their propaganda of the past 25 years, liberal programmes and policies actually work. Once American voters see that liberals are good for America, Republicans are doomed. That is why they\u2019re digging their heals in: Pure partisan gamesmanship.\nIn opposing the president\u2019s plan, Republicans attacked Democrats with lies and distortions, just as they did when they controlled Washington. They\u2019ve deliberately misled Americans about what\u2019s in the package (that\u2019s called lying), and they played up minor parts of the package that they think would be unpopular (that\u2019s called distortion).\nIf the Republicans want to continue to fiddle as the crisis grows worse, that\u2019s their business. But how many months does America have to lose a half million jobs, and how high does the unemployment rate have to get, before the obstructionists on the right understand that helping the American people is more important than their political games?\nUpdate 10/02/09: Today I saw a US News & World Report story via Yahoo News looking at 15 companies that, based on ratings from Moody's and other data, the magazine thinks could fail in 2009, risking more than 350,000 jobs. Many of those 15 are companies that depend on ordinary people spending money, which isn't happening. And, of course, this isn't counting plenty of other companies, large and small, that may go under this year, taking their jobs with them. Just one more indication of the urgency.\nWingnut cooperation\nDuring the Clinton Administration, supporters complained there was \u201ca vast rightwing conspiracy\u201d behind the persecution of Bill Clinton. \u201cConspiracy\u201d is too strong a word for it, but there certainly was\u2014and is\u2014great cooperation among groups on the far right. Why would the rightwing engage in any sort of criminal conspiracy when they can meet their goals legally and openly?\nSome will no doubt see the revelation that far right Texas christianists bankrolled the attempt to stop the \u201cTroopergate\u201d investigation of Sarah Palin as proof of \u201cconspiracy\u201d. The six Republican Alaska legislators who sued to stop the investigation declared the donation of legal services as gifts, as they were legally required to do. There\u2019s no law preventing out of state lawyers from taking part in Alaska cases, and long as the value of their donated work is declared, as it was, everything was completely legal.\nNevertheless, it\u2019s certainly interesting the lengths to which the far right will go to protect and promote their own. The legal help came from an organisation associated with arch-homophobe and \u00fcberbigot James Dobson\u2019s Focus on Hate, er, the Family. The declared value of the legal services was $185,000.\nUltimately, of course, the lawsuit failed and the final report criticised Palin (and she, locked in her reason-free Orwellian world, declared she was \u201ccleared\u201d). Interestingly, the lawyer for the Alaska Legislature was paid $29,845 for his successful work in defeating the lawsuit.\nThis whole thing proves that not even the bottomless pockets of the wingnuts can buy everything they want. It also shows that they\u2019re not as powerful as they want us to think they are. Both are very good things.\nThose of us who advocate for marriage equality have shown how it\u2019s the many every day, common things that make full equality the only option. Here\u2019s one such example.\nA Washington state woman, Janice Langbehn, is in federal court suing Jackson Memorial Hospital in Miami claiming emotional distress and negligence after the hospital refused to allow her to see her dying partner. As the Miami Herald reported it:\nAs her partner of 17 years slipped into a coma, Janice Langbehn pleaded with doctors and anyone who would listen to let her into the woman's hospital room.\nEight anguishing hours passed before Langbehn would be allowed into Jackson Memorial Hospital's Ryder Trauma Center. By then, she could only say her final farewell as a priest performed the last rites on 39-year-old Lisa Marie Pond.\nJackson staffers advised Langbehn that she could not see Pond earlier because the hospital's visitation policy in cases of emergency was limited to immediate family and spouses\u2014not partners\u2026\nLangbehn and Pond were on a cruise docked in Miami with their three adopted children when Pond suffered a brain aneurysm. Even though she presented the hospital with \u201cdocuments declaring her Pond's legal guardian and giving her the medical \u2018power of attorney,\u2019 Jackson officials refused to recognize her or the kids as family.\u201d\nIf Langbehn and Pond were a legally married heterosexual couple, this would never have happened. It\u2019s also unlikely that they would ever need such documents.\nBut last November, 62% Florida voters decided to make same-sex marriage\u2014already illegal in that state\u2014extra illegal by enshrining the ban in their state constitution. But the amendment wasn\u2019t just aimed at all the evil homos, it essentially stripped legal protections from gay or straight \u201cdomestic partners\u201d alike.\nIn the United States, marriage is a state matter, which is why cases in individual states matter. Everyone knows what legal rights marriage conveys\u2014especially, as in cases like this, next-of-kin status. In the US, \u201ccivil unions\u201d or \u201cdomestic partnership\u201d, or whatever separate-but-equal name states give it, can potentially have 50 different definitions.\nSo when the opponents of marriage equality talk grandly of \u201cprotecting\u201d marriage, or of \u201cstrengthening families\u201d, what they really want is to destroy gay and lesbian families and to rip them apart. They talk about their \u201cconcern\u201d for children, but they think nothing of destroying loving homes in their zeal.\nNo opponent of marriage equality has ever\u2014ever\u2014provided a single logical, rational and secular reason why marriage equality shouldn\u2019t be the law in all 50 states. They haven\u2019t because they can\u2019t. Being determined to deny the freedom and legal rights of other citizens without any logical, rational and secular reasons has a name: Bigotry.\nThis case is only one among thousands of similar cases happening every day in the US as a consequence of this bigotry. How many more people will be forced to suffer in the name of hate? Yes, marriage matters.\nA word of warning: If you read the linked article, don\u2019t read the comments. Like most newspapers these days, comments on stories like this bring out a swarm of wingnuts, bigots, haters and religious fanatics. Don\u2019t spoil your day by reading them.\nFixing the Bush messes\nWhen Americans elected Barack Obama as president and gave Democrats solid majorities in both houses of Congress, they did so to accomplish the same goal: Change the direction America was headed in. They didn\u2019t want more of the same failed policies of Bush/Cheney, they wanted change.\nThis week America took a major step in fixing the messes left by Bush/Cheney and the Republicans when President Obama signed the S-CHIP (State Children\u2019s Health Insurance Program) reauthorisation act into law.\nS-CHIP provides health insurance coverage to children in poor and low-income families, but in October of 2007 Bush vetoed the reauthorisation of S-CHIP. At the time I said: \u201cOf all the lame-brained nonsense coming from the Bush White House, his veto of the S-CHIP measure to provide health insurance to children from low-income families, has got to be among the most inexplicable.\u201d\nThe Republican mantra in 2007 was that S-CHIP was some sort of socialised medicine by stealth because it would have made more children eligible for coverage. This year, some Republicans continued to push this bizarrely absurd idea. In their \u201clet them eat cake\u201d attitude, Bush and the Republicans said sick poor children could always go a hospital emergency room\u2014the most expensive form of healthcare there is.\nThe new Congress moved in January to get the programme reauthorized, including an expansion to cover about 4 million more children. To fund it, the bill raised the cigarette tax by 62 cents (today, about NZ$1.16) per pack, thereby funding one pubic health need by taxing a public health problem. If ever there was a win-win situation, that\u2019s it.\nPresident Obama signed the final version of the law on February 4. This is only one of the Bush/Cheney messes that President Obama and Congress have either fixed or are in the process of fixing. Helping children from poor and low-income families finally get the healthcare they need? That\u2019s what I call change I can believe in.\n\u201cPlease Don\u2019t Divorce Us\u201d\nIn December last year, the liars and bigots who ran the \u201cYes on 8\u201d campaign to re-ban same-sex marriage in California hired the reviled Ken Starr (who led the persecution harassment witchhunt investigation of President Bill Clinton) to take the legal lead in their campaign to keep the California Supreme Court from invalidating Proposition 8. Then, shortly before Christmas, Starr filed a brief demanding that the California Supreme Court invalidate all 18,000 same-sex marriages performed in that state between May and November 2008 (despite the \u201cYes on 8\u201d campaign leaders consistently telling California voters during the campaign that they\u2019d do no such thing\u2014which is one of the many reasons they\u2019re legitimately called liars).\nIn response to Starr, the Courage Campaign solicited photos of ordinary people sending the same message: \u201cPlease don\u2019t divorce\u2026\u201d their friends, parents, co-workers, themselves\u2014whoever was appropriate. The Courage Campaign then assembled the photos together and created the above video, \u201cFidelity\u201d: Don\u2019t Divorce\u2026 It\u2019s part of a campaign in which they\u2019re asking people to express their support for defeating Ken Starr.\nIt\u2019s certainly true that, as the video says, in the end \u201clove will prevail\u201d, but right now the lives and happiness\u2014not to mention freedom and equality\u2014of 18,000 couples hangs in the balance.\nOral arguments on the case begin before the California Supreme Court on March 9, 2009, with a decision expected within the following 90 days. Hopefully justice will prevail and Ken Starr will be handed another defeat. More importantly, hopefully justice will be restored for all Californians, especially those 18,000 couples.\nI found the video, as I have so many other things, over at Joe.My.God.\nLabels: Gay Rights, LGBT, Marriage Equality, US Politics\nOf Tweets and Twooshes\nI really like Twitter, which puts me in one half of the universe\u2014the other half doesn\u2019t. Unlike other social networking sites such as MySpace, Facebook, Last.fm, etc., the way Twitter works is obvious: You have 140 characters to answer the question, \u201cWhat are you doing?\u201d Sometimes it\u2019s called a \u201cmicro-blogging platform,\u201d which is a bit silly, really: Twitter is whatever users want it to be. Some people use it as a sort of chat platform, others as a way to offer short, witty observations of life. Most are somewhere between the two.\nThere\u2019s a culture to Twitter, of course, and users have invented words to describe their world. For example, when you post to the service it\u2019s called a \u201cTweet\u201d. If you manage to Tweet with exactly 140 characters it\u2019s called a \u201cTwoosh\u201d, something I didn\u2019t know until yesterday. Your fellow Twitterers are \u201cTweeps\u201d, which is short for \u201cTweeple\u201d (and is much nicer than the obvious \u201cTwits\u201d).\nThere are innumerable services available to amalgamate statistics from your Twitter use, among them Tweet Stats, where I learned I\u2019ve had 10 \u201cTwooshes\u201d. It also told me that the top five words I used in my Tweets are: new, time, good, thanks and today. Okay, then.\nSo yesterday I Tweeted: \u201cMy new Tweet this time won't be good, thanks to the fact that I'm trying to use all my top 5 words today,\u201d Which simply reinforced my top 5 words. It was fun only because it plays with Twitter; screwing with the system\u2014what\u2019s not to like?\nAs with most other social network sites, there are people who use the service to promote themselves, their products or services. While some \u201cTweeps\u201d get annoyed by the spammers, I don\u2019t have that problem because my updates are \u201cProtected\u201d, which means I have to approve anyone who wants to \u201dFollow\u201d me, that is, be allowed to see my Tweets. \u201cFollowing\u201d is the Twitter equivalent of \u201cfriending\u201d on other social network services. To use statistic sites like Tweet Stats, I have to temporarily \u201cunprotect\u201d my updates, but I can immediately turn Protection back on so it\u2019s not a big drama.\nI mostly follow folks I know through podcasting or blogging, but I also follow a few celebrities. The first was Wil Wheaten who I followed because of \u201cStar Trek: The Next Generation\u201d as well as his blog, which is interesting. I added others (Levar Burton, Brent Spiner and Stephen Fry) I found through other celebrities. I follow these people because they\u2019re all using it like normal Twitter folk and not to promote their latest project or their celebrity (I should note that only Stephen Fry follows me back).\nTwitter isn\u2019t for everyone, but people who are social or who enjoy writing pithy observations (or both) will probably like it the most. I think it can be a lot of fun to take part in and entertaining to watch others play. Your results may vary.\nLabels: blogs and blogging, Internet Stuff\nCall me a bastard\u2014or worse\u2014if you want, but I\u2019m simply not the least bit sorry that Antonie Dixon is dead. He callously murdered an innocent man and maimed two innocent women and now he\u2019s saved the taxpayers the cost of incarcerating him. Why, exactly, should I feel bad about that?\nHis lawyer is saying all sorts of lawyer nonsense, blaming the Corrections Department, yadda, yadda, yadda. The fact is, no mainstream Kiwi is mourning his death, and I\u2019m with them. I watched his bug-eyed performance\u2014since that\u2019s what it looked like to us ordinary people\u2014before the TV cameras and I remained unconvinced. From the very beginning, I thought he was acting and nothing since then has made me think otherwise.\nSay what you want about this case or about me, but I don\u2019t know a single person who\u2019s sorry that Antonie Dixon is dead.\nDevil in the details?\nThe National-led Government has announced plans to make a lot of changes to the Resource Management Act (RMA). The law is the main way to protect the environment from rapacious development.\nThe RMA has long been hated by the right wing, sometimes with justification. But the neoconservative ACT Party has in the past pledged to get rid of the RMA altogether, while some on the far left thought it was fine the way it is. The truth, as usual, lies between the extremes: While generally solid legislation, it did need some tweaks.\nBut I can\u2019t tell you what I think about the Government\u2019s proposed changes because I haven\u2019t seen the text yet. Some of the reported changes seem bad: Making it easier to cut down large trees (which would overturn policy in the city where we live), for example. The rhetoric so far has also included attacks on local councils for delaying the processing of consent applications under the RMA, even though statistically local councils don\u2019t take a long time to process the applications and, in any case, the delays are usually caused by requirements placed by Central Government.\nSome things seem to be good: Fines for breaking environmental laws will be increased, and it will be much harder for businesses to use the RMA to prevent competition, as we\u2019ve seen recently right here in North Shore City (a story in itself).\nI wanted to know what opponents thought about the changes, since the NZ Herald can be counted on to lead the business and conservative cheering section. Greenpeace and the Environmental Defence Society are both concerned about proposed changes. Among other things, it will be much harder for grassroots organisations to file challenges, no matter how legitimate.\nBut what about the Opposition? I went to the Labour Party website and was assured that \u201cWe\u2019re already planning for the future\u201d which is just peachy, but what about the Party\u2019s position on the RMA changes? The most recent posting was on January 21 about a summer camp for Labour Party activists. That\u2019s simply not good enough. The Party ought to be putting out new releases constantly, even when Parliament is in recess. So, I have no idea what Labour\u2019s position is.\nSo, for now, I think some of the proposed changes look like they could be good, some look like they could be bad but, on balance, I have no idea whether the proposed changes are good or not. Guess I\u2019ll have to read the details, too.\nGives me gas\nPetrol in New Zealand has gone up yet again\u2014another six cents per litre. In most places, it\u2019s now NZ$1.689 per litre (or today about US$3.21 per US gallon). Petrol has gone up 36 cents a litre since January 14 (about 68 US cents per US gallon).\nThe reason for this is allegedly the plummeting New Zealand dollar (last night, the Kiwi dropped below 50 US cents for the first time in six years), even though world prices for petroleum remain relatively low. What ordinary people notice is that when the Kiwi gains strength and/or the cost of oil drops, the pump price falls slowly, sometimes as little as 2 centre per litre, once in awhile it\u2019s 6 cents, but it\u2019s usually 3 cents, and usually well after the drop in price or increase in the Kiwi. However, the second there\u2019s an increase in oil prices or the Kiwi drops, the pump price jumps at least three cents a litre, sometimes 4 cents and quite often six cents a litre (like this time). This is why most Kiwis don\u2019t trust the oil companies.\nSome months back, my friend Dawn wrote a long and thorough post explaining the background to petroleum pricing and profits. It\u2019s no simple situation, far more complicated than it appears by watching pump prices.\nIn any case, it seems like the days of cheaper petrol are over in New Zealand for now, and that can only make things worse for ordinary Kiwis. That\u2019s not a good thing for anyone\u2014including the oil companies.\nBloggers do some things that annoy me\u2014and no, I\u2019m not talking about their content. It\u2019s not even about layout or styling (though I\u2019m not keen on a whole lot of Flash animations). Instead, I\u2019m talking about things they use regularly or add to posts. Here are three:\nUS-only video sites\nI know that very often a blogger in the US won\u2019t know that a given video site is only accessible inside the US, but once they become aware of it, I really wish they wouldn\u2019t continue to post those video players. No one likes a tease, but in this case it\u2019s frustrating not knowing what the blogger or commentors are talking about. If it were me, I\u2019d ask myself if the video was really that important.\nHowever, the growing trend toward video being corralled into US-only sites controlled by American media conglomerates is more than annoying\u2014it\u2019s potentially stifling of discussion and free thought. Many old media companies are vigorously enforcing their \u201ccopyright\u201d and ordering sites like YouTube to remove their content\u2014even if it\u2019s not actually theirs (like when HBO began forcing YouTube to remove all privately-shot video of the pre-inauguration concert because they had \u201cexclusive rights\u201d to the public event).\nSometimes old media companies provide their own video players, and sometimes they even work outside the US, but it seems to me they\u2019re shooting themselves in the foot by preventing wider non-commercial exposure to their content. In any case, I wish other bloggers would avoid this US-only video prison.\nHaloScan sans halo\nConsidering how buggy and failure-prone HaloScan is, I can\u2019t understand why any blogger uses it. A prime example: The HaloScan comments over at popular blog (and daily read for me) Joe.My.God, whose comments are sometimes screwed-up several times over a week (like it was much of today). High-traffic blogs like his are interesting in part because of the comments\u2014if they\u2019re totally screwed up or missing, then half the fun and a large part of the interest are missing, too.\nObviously it wouldn\u2019t matter so much for low-traffic sites like this one (I just use Blogger\u2019s in-built comment system), but I still have to wonder: How many chances to fail does something get before you get rid of it?\nDon\u2019t Feedjit\nOkay, this one is just a personal dislike: I can\u2019t stand Feedjit, a \u201cLive Traffic Feed\u201d monitor that all the kids are playing with these days. I admit it\u2019s kind of interesting for a few minutes watching \u201cin Real-Time\u201d (um, more or less\u2026) as people arrive on a popular blog, but I don\u2019t like other people seeing when I arrive and where I came from.\nI know that Feedjit gets my point of origin wrong (it measures where your ISP is directing you from, not where you actually are), and I also know that most blogs have some sort of site monitor that tells the owner where readers are coming from, how long they stay, etc. (and those monitors seem to be more accurate than Feedjit). Having the blog owner know I was there is one thing, having all other readers know is a bit different.\nAnd in case you\u2019re wondering why I provide links to the blogging tools I don\u2019t like, it\u2019s because I believe people should be free to make up their own minds about things. Which is why of these three, the one that annoys me the most is US-only video sites. Information was born free, but increasingly it\u2019s living in chains of gold, to mix up metaphors.",

I think, though, I would have taken one look at the audience and probably turned around and headed the other direction, but she didn\u2019t. Her and her teammates just went out there and did their thing. She never ceases to amaze me \u2013 she\u2019s so grown up. Afterwards, we did a fun thing. There were a number of street vendors and one was a potter. He let the kids each mold some pots that they were able to take home with them. He sent us with directions to fire the pot \u2013 which I assumed would be something like \u2013 put it in the oven for 10 min at 350 but its NOT. It\u2019s actually, dig a hole, put the pot in the hole and cover them with twigs. Light the twigs on fire and if your pot doesn\u2019t explode then you did it right. Seriously! Well suffice to say, we are still \u201cdrying\u201d our pots (even though that\u2019s only to take 3 days max), several weeks later, because I\u2019m scared to actually fire them.

        "raw_content": "Unspirational Quote: It is not the mountain we conquer but ourselves\nRecently, it seems some folks want followings by posting popular quotes but framing them to be inspirational toward MLM participants. Here's one example:\nHowever, it seems these folks do NOT actually look into the origin of such a quote.\nQuote Investigator has the best investigation... It was NOT first spoken by Sir Edmund Hillary. decades after he first climb Mt. Everest with Tenzing Norgay in 1953, he was asked in an interview in 1998 did he say it, and he answered that he may have said it, and he agreed with it. But he never claimed to have coined the expression.\nIndeed, searches show that in 1892, a religious text called \"The Manna of the Soul\" by Father Paulo Segneri used mountain climbing as similar to faith in God.\nHe would have us ascend, not fly, that we may have greater merit in the violence that we do to ourselves when we conquer ourselves little by little, as in climbing up a high mountain: \u201cCome, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord.\u201d\nSo basically, the quote is actually about blind faith in one's ability to master the mountain.\nQuote investigator believe the quote was actually from George Mallory, dated 1918 in a slightly different form where he used \"vanquish\" instead of conquer. It's worth noting that George Mallory died on Everest in 1924 and his body was not found until 1999. To date, there have been 292 deaths who died climbing Everest.\nSo I'll just leave you with this Unspirational Poster from SMOSH instead:\nIt is perfectly accurate as well, isn't it?\nLabels: George Mallory, Sir Edmund Hillary, Unspirational Quote\nUnspirational Quote: It is not the mountain we con...",

        "raw_content": "You are here: Home / Going Green / Air Conditioning Company Offers Geothermal Systems\nIn the past few years, we\u2019ve experienced intolerably hot, muggy summers. Every time the temperature spikes up or down each season, our energy bills tend to jump up. If you feel like your heating and air conditioning simply is not efficient enough, we recommend that you consider investing in a geothermal heating and cooling system.\nGeothermal Systems Are Green\nGeothermal heating and cooling systems utilize water pipes in a series of loops underground to efficiently heat or cool your home. During the winter, the ground acts as a heat source and water absorbs the heat and is compressed by a heat pump and then distributed throughout the building as heat. Due to this effective process, geothermal heating can be over four times more efficient than gas furnaces, which over a long period of time you will be able to save copious amounts of money. During the summer, this process is reversed and the ground is used to draw heat and humidity out of the home. Cool air is then circulated throughout the home, making it a very efficient cooling system.\nGeothermal Systems Are Convenient\nAnother reason why geothermal systems are great for the home is the convenience. They operate very quietly so you don\u2019t have to worry about being disturbed when concentrating on something important in the home. They are also compatible with most thermostat systems and are easy to use. Geothermal systems do not use any natural resources, so you do not have to worry about different energy bills to heat your home. With a geothermal system, you will never again have to worry about the increasing fuel prices to make your home more comfortable.\nGeothermal heating and cooling systems are very green and efficient. Instead of relying on natural gas or excessive electricity, they utilize the ground to effectively heat and cool your home. They are easy to use and produce very little noise. As with all heating and a/c systems, you need the proper sized geothermal unit for optimal efficiency. At Anchor, we guarantee our expert contractors will recommend the correct sized unit for your home and properly install the system.\nFor more information about Geothermal heating and cooling systems \u2013 give us a call at (770) 942-2873 or contact us online.",

        "raw_content": "Credit where credit is due: This article is from Time Out New York, and was transcribed and posted by a very kind and generous poster named Jennifer Lynn on the official site (www.buffy.com)\nA hotly anticipated spin-off doesn\u2019t scare Angel\u2019s David Boreanaz \u2013 but poultry is another story\nEver since his character, Angel, skulked onto the screen in the very first episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, David Boreanaz has been spicing up the WB\u2019s cult favorite with his own brand of blood, sex and tears. But after Angel\u2019s tough breakup with Buffy last season because of irreconcilable differences (he\u2019s an immortal vampire, she\u2019s a mortal vampire slayer \u2013 you know the score), the teen heartthrob has rebounded with an aptly-titled spinoff, Angel. This time, the big adorable bloodsucker opens a detective agency. With a partner named Doyle (Roseanne\u2019s Glenn Quinn, back from the dead, himself), a mysterious character who can locate souls in need of aid, Angel does some saving. And all this do-gooding takes place, appropriately enough, in the City of Angels. Recently, Time Out New York caught up with Boreanaz between shoots. The star gave us a little phone time while tooling around the Paramount lot in a golf cart:\nTONY: Let\u2019s get right down to business. Could Angel take the vampire Lestat?\nDavid: It would definitely be a battle of intelligence, an ongoing fight: He\u2019d get the better of me, I\u2019d get the better of him. I don\u2019t think we could really conquer each other; there would just be a respect for each other\u2019s powers.\nTONY: Sounds like you\u2019re getting soft.\nDavid: [In a tough \u201cGoodfella\u2019s\u201d voice ] I ain\u2019t getting soft \u2013 forget it. If I\u2019m evil, he\u2019s done.\nTONY: Is your character on Angel different he was on Buffy?\nDavid: When we see him in the first episode, he\u2019s still a bit removed and lost. He\u2019s pretty depressed and distraught. But his character takes on more challenges and mixes it up with the world and with humans. Since he has to do that, he\u2019s finding himself to be a little more adventurous, a bit more rambunctious, lighthearted.\nTONY: So you have more room to grow as an actor?\nDavid: Definitely. That\u2019s one of the blessings of the show. I\u2019m sure I\u2019ll have remorse and I\u2019ll be upset about the past and Buffy, but at the same time, I\u2019ll be riding my own train. I won\u2019t be caught in that relationship anymore; it won\u2019t melt me down every time I see her.\nTONY: Some fans are going to be upset when and if Angel finds a new love interest. Any advice?\nDavid: There are going to be crossovers, so Angel and Buffy will get back together in some respects. But hey, you never know \u2013 there are other women out there. Angel\u2019s mixin\u2019 it up!\nTONY: Any pressure because this is a spin-off?\nDavid: Not really. You look at it as an extension of the work that\u2019s already been done, and you take it as an opportunity to expand and grow. I don\u2019t really look at it as pressure. If I did, I would be a mess right now.\nTONY: Any movie plans in the works? Most of the WB teens are starting to appear in films.\nDavid: I was offered 2 films this year that I had to turn down because of scheduling. But that stuff will all come. I\u2019ve decided not to run that gamut of doing all those teen movies. I find it more appealing to do something with substance.\nTONY: A lot of actors are trained in singing and dancing. Are you?\nDavid: No. I used to break dance on the streets when I was in Philadelphia.\nTONY: Do you think you\u2019ll be able to incorporate that into an episode of \u201cAngel?\u201d\nDavid: [Deadpans] Yeah, I\u2019ll just start popping on a corner in downtown Los Angeles. I\u2019ll throw down my cardboard box and start spinning. [Finally laughs] No, I\u2019m not trained in the experience of life. You just take your experiences, and you put \u2018em up there. You hit your mark and you go home. [Laughing] You don\u2019t have to be a rocket scientist to do what we do.\nTONY: - Do you have any fear? Spiders? Heights?\nDavid: - I have a fear of chickens.\nTONY: - Why?\nDavid: - They freak me out, man. They have that whole clucking thing going on that just trips me out.",

The main objective of the project is designing a model and piloting participatory, evidence based, approach in the creation of effective gender policies for economic empowerment of women. Project activities are implemented in the municipalities of Bitola and Kichevo, as multiethnic municipalities within rural and urban areas. The project will be implemented in the period 04.01.2015 - 03.31.2016. Target groups of the project are relevant representatives of the local government units from the municipalities of Kichevo and Bitola and civil society organizations active in the field of women's and human rights and economic empowerment. In the implementation of part of the activities, unemployed women from the targeted municipalities will be included. The project, through the implementation of activities, contributes to the creation of gender sensitive policies and actions for increasing women's participation in the labor market locally and creating enabling environment for improving the unfavorable position of women in the labor market in the targeted municipalities. It is expected increase of the intersectoral cooperation of the relevant institutions in the feald and especially increasing the cooperation between the civil society organizations and local authorities in the creation and implementation of policies.",

I am an antique fiend, but shopping here is bittersweet \u2013 a palpable reminder of the city\u2019s economic woes. If you are looking for a keepsake of your trip \u2013 one that gives back as well as takes \u2013 try the Casa de San Antonio de los Cobres, in the gorgeous Pasaje de la Defense courtyard shopping area at Defensa 1179. Duck in off the street to the sunny patio, a 2-storied shopping area with worn tiled floors, fountains, and verdant plants.\nA non-governmental organization, Casa de San Antonio de los Cobres works on issues of social justice with a small community in the country\u2019s northwest. The store sells beautiful artisan tapestries of llama and sheep wool, made by indigenous peoples of San Antonio. The handmade vests, shawls, carpets, and blankets are unique and exquisite, wonderful place-based artisan goods. Profits from sales support projects in health and education in the pueblo. And, of course, a tapestry packs nicely in a suitcase \u2013 much easier to transport than a crystal chandelier.\nCasa de San Antonio de los Cobres\nDefensa 1179- PB local 32 \u2013 San Telmo",

        "raw_content": "In April, a large group of some 200 early \u2018white\u2019 works on paper was added to Arkley Works (for details, see A-Z Index). These works, not originally included in the catalogue (due to incomplete documentation), significantly extend understanding of Arkley\u2019s early maturity, revealing the wealth of ideas brewing in the young artist\u2019s mind in this formative phase of his career. Given that the bulk of these works appear under 1974 (via the approximate dating c.1974-76), a separate catalogue is included as an Appendix: \u2018White\u2019 works on paper (c.1974-78), listing the works systematically (by size and formal characteristics) rather than simply chronologically and alphabetically.\nMay saw the publication of a new book by Katrina Strickland, addressing the complexities involved in various Australian artists\u2019 estates following their deaths, especially in relation to surviving partners\u2019 management of both extant work and posthumous reputation (Affairs of the Art, 2013). In the chapter on Arkley, Strickland emphasizes Alison Burton\u2019s stand on issues relating to copyright and the provenance of works attributed to Arkley after his death. Strickland\u2019s book, which was also excerpted in several major newspapers, received considerable publicity at the time, and she also spoke on it at a number of events, including the 2013 Sydney Writer\u2019s Festival.\nArkley\u2019s late canvas Superb + Solid (1998) was included in the major survey exhibition of Australian art held at London\u2019s Royal Academy (Sept.-Dec.2013). The biographical details published in the catalogue (Keneally & others, 2013, p.290), indicated that the artist was \u201cborn of a Jewish mother and a German father\u201d, an unsubstantiated claim apparently derived from Wikipedia.\nLate in the year, a significant commercial show of Arkley\u2019s work was staged at Robert Gould\u2019s South Yarra gallery.\n\u2018Mix Tape 1980s: Appropriation, Subculture, Critical Style\u2019, The Ian Potter Centre: NGV Australia at Federation Square, 11 April-1 Sept.2013:\nThe main work on paper from Tattooed Head; and source material (1988 and earlier) [W/P]\n\u2018Trams: Moving Pictures\u2019, Old Treasury Building Museum, Melbourne, July \u2013 1 November 2013:\nDocumentation of various examples from 1979-92, including Arkley\u2019s Tram no.384 1980 [3/M].

One, two, three.\nTen-year-old Jesse Wolford's sneakers shuffled to keep up with his mother's red high heels on the wooden dance floor.\nA young couple bumped into each other and giggled. An older couple reminisced about dancing together as high school sweethearts.\nThe dances were held in a community center just like this, with folding chairs arranged just like these around the walls, 76-year-old Ray Barhight said.\nThese were the reactions the Hancock Arts Council hoped for when members planned Sunday's tea dance, the first of its kind to be held in the town's newly refurbished Performing Arts Center, said Arts Council chairman Sinclair Hamilton.\n\"We wanted to have a nice family activity on a Sunday afternoon, where the community could come together and enjoy each other's company,\" he said.\nAbout 100 people attended the dance, with adults paying a $5 admission fee to raise money to refurbish the floor and buy new stage lights for the center, Hamilton said.\nHancock Mayor Daniel A. Murphy didn't get to dance, but he played in both performing groups: The Tri-State Big Band and the Hancock Waltz Kings.\nWhile the more experienced dancers showed off on the dance floor, a 16-year-old Hagerstown couple got an impromptu dance lesson that began in the hallway.\n\"I said, 'Do you know how to do this dance?' and they said 'no,'\" said Marge Barhight, 74, of Great Cacapon, W.Va. \"I said, 'It's simple. Watch my feet.'\"\nSoon, Lindsay Stine and Nate Brandt were swing dancing and waltzing on the dance floor.\n\"I think it's wonderful when young people want to learn,\" Barhight said. \"That's something they'll do the rest of their life.\"\nTea dancers take the floor in Hancock\nLine dance lessons and Valentine's dance\nFrom Legion hall to performance hall",

        "raw_content": "Hollywood Sign's Puzzling Letters Remain a Mystery\nJanuary 03, 1985|STEVE HARVEY | Times Staff Writer\nSouthern Californians were still puzzling over the New Year's Day transformation of the HOLLYWOOD sign into the RAFFEYSOD sign when, suddenly and mysteriously, the landmark reassumed its normal appearance Wednesday.\n\"I'm looking through my binoculars right now,\" Bill Welsh, president of the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce, said at noontime from his fifth-floor office on Sunset Boulevard. \"There's someone up there cleaning some bed sheets or old clothing off the W.\n\"I haven't any idea who it is but the sign looks pretty much back to normal. This has all happened since I last looked up there about an hour ago. We asked a company to make us an offer for cleaning up the sign but now we won't have to use them.\"\nSo a Good Samaritan had rid the town of RAFFEYSOD. But what had that assemblage of letters signified during its one-day run?\n\"We thought it might be a rock music group but no one's ever heard of the name,\" Welsh said.\nFrankie Highland, an editor at KNX radio, whose studio is south of the sign, wondered whether \"it was some ethnic group or foreign group . . . trying to get a message across that nobody understands.\"\nBut no one had phoned the Chamber of Commerce or the media claiming responsibility for altering the 50-foot-tall letters with strategically placed sheets.\nWelsh filed a vandalism complaint with Hollywood Division police. But Detective Carl Whiting, initially at least, couldn't make much of RAFFEYSOD, either.\n\"Let's see . . . what does it spell backwards?\" he asked rhetorically.\nHe paused after coming up with DOSYEFFAR. \"Well, I'm sure it's some kind of a puzzle,\" he added.\nThe SOD aspect of the sign yielded no apparent clues, either. George Reyes, manager of Economy Lawn Service, said he didn't think it was a type of grass. \"I deal with six or seven different farms and buy hundreds of types of grasses but I've never heard of it,\" Reyes said. \"It could be a new bluegrass, but I don't think so.\"\nThe sign has been altered on two other occasions in recent years, once without permission (HOLLYWEED) and once with permission (U.S. Naval Academy midshipmen draped a GO NAVY banner over it before the 1983 Army-Navy football game at the Rose Bowl).\nWelsh said the latest incident may pay off for the chamber in one respect.\n\"We got a call from a company that's offered to supply us with free anti-graffiti material for the sign,\" he said. \"Graffiti is also a problem up there, though you can't see it from a distance.\"\nWill the anti-graffiti material also prevent altering of the sign with sheets?\n\"No, it can't stop sheets,\" Welsh said.",

His father masterminded one of Asia's economic miracles and democratized his country.\nChiang Hsiao-wu has a more humble station in life, although in some respects no easier.\nHe heads Taiwan's unofficial embassy in Tokyo, seeking to put his government's case in a country where senior officials are forbidden to meet him.\n\"I cannot compare myself with my glorious grandfather and father,\" he said in an interview in the spotless meeting room on the top floor of the Assn. of East Asian Relations.\nFrom the walls their portraits look down at him--Chiang Kai-shek, head of the Nationalist Republic of China from 1926 until his death in 1975, and Chiang Ching-kuo, its prime minister in the 1970s and president from 1978 to 1988.\nBorn in April, 1945, in his father's home province of Zhejiang in China, Chiang is the second son of Chiang Ching-kuo and his Russian wife, whom he married while working in a Siberian factory in the 1930s, a virtual prisoner of Josef Stalin.\nWhen the communists drove the nationalists from the mainland, Chiang went with his family to Taiwan, where he graduated from the Chinese Culture University with a degree in Sino-American relations, before going to study politics at the Institute of Politics in Munich.\n\"I saw much of my grandfather during my youth. He never changed his daily schedule whatever happened, with a walk of at least 1,000 paces after dinner, meditation and prayer,\" he recalled.\n\"Whenever I have a problem, I think of what my father and grandfather said in the past,\" he said.\nChiang was the most politically oriented of Chiang Ching-kuo's three sons. The eldest contracted diabetes and later cancer of the throat. He died in 1989. The youngest is a businessman.\nHe has two half brothers, who bear the name Chang. One is a senior official of the Nationalist Party in charge of foreign affairs and the other a university dean.\nChiang served for 10 years in top posts in broadcasting stations in Taiwan before being posted to Taiwan's trade office in Singapore in 1986, first as deputy chief and then chief.\nHe took up his Tokyo post in January.\nAlthough Singapore does not have full diplomatic relations with Taiwan, it has close military and economic ties and Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew is a frequent visitor to Taipei.\n\"Whenever I wanted to see him, I could. He had good relations with my father. I respect Lee very much as a man of principle,\" Chiang said.\nIt is a different story in Tokyo, which broke relations with Taipei in 1972, when it recognized the communist government in Beijing.\nJapanese government officials from above the level of deputy section chief are not officially allowed to see Chiang Hsiao-wu or any of his staff. Beijing's embassy watches vigilantly for any exception to the rule.\n\"We face many obstacles and difficulties. But, due to the hard work of the staff here, we have friends in many circles in Japan, especially in the Parliament,\" Chiang said.\nParliament has two China-Japan associations, with 220 legislators belonging to the one that is pro-Taiwan. Chiang is unable to say how many of the 760 members of the two houses back Taipei, not Beijing.\nIt is an uphill job, with Tokyo keen to maintain good ties with Beijing despite the military crackdown on student-led protest last June and Beijing showing no sign of allowing Taiwan more diplomatic room as its president has requested.\nThe Taiwan press closely watches Chiang for any sign that he will try for high office and continue the dynasty.\n\"I do not think of it. My ideal is to serve my country and my compatriots, not to take part in political demonstrations,\" he said. \"I do not think today of being a national leader nor will I tomorrow.\"\nLawsuit seeks removal of Glendale 'comfort women' statue\nYield on Japanese Government Bonds Slides to 4-Year Low\nJapanese Government Knew About Sex Slaves, Researchers Say\nTaiwan Pressed to Halt Trade in Rhino Horns, Tiger Bones",

        "raw_content": "Return to Grand Slam Glory : Rod Laver Was the Last Man to Sweep Four Major Titles and Thinks It Can Be Done Again\nMay 22, 1994|JERRY CROWE | TIMES STAFF WRITER\nDark clouds threatened more rain as Australians Rod Laver and Tony Roche played for the U.S. Open championship on a grass court left soggy by morning showers. The start of the match had been delayed 95 minutes while a helicopter helped dry the court.\nIt was Sept. 8, 1969. Laver, 31, was seven years older than Roche and had lost five of seven matches to him that year. Eight months earlier, Roche had pushed him in the semifinals of the Australian Open before Laver won, 7-5, 22-20, 9-11, 1-6, 6-3, in 4 1/2 hours.\nLaver won the Australian title before also winning the French Open and Wimbledon, moving him three-quarters of the way to a Grand Slam.\nBut Roche was determined to leave him short of his goal.\n\"I cheered for Rocket to make the Grand Slam in '62 when I was a teen-ager,\" Roche said at the time. \"But I want to stop him this time.\"\nRoche opened a 5-4 lead in the first set at Forest Hills, N.Y., but Laver altered the course of the match simply by changing shoes. Switching from tennis shoes to spikes to improve his footing on the rain-slickened grass court, Laver completed his Grand Slam with a 7-9, 6-1, 6-2, 6-2 victory.\nIn 25 years since, no man has duplicated the feat, which Laver first accomplished in '62, matching the effort of Don Budge in 1938.\nBut many, Laver included, believe that Pete Sampras, 23, could join Laver, Budge, Maureen Connolly, Margaret Court and Steffi Graf as the sport's only Grand Slam winners if he can convert his mastery on faster courts to the slower clay of the French Open, which starts Monday in Paris.\nSampras, who has already won major titles on hardcourts at the U.S. Open and Australian Open and on grass at Wimbledon, won the Italian Open this month, easily the most impressive of his two clay-court titles.\n\"With his game--he's got a beautiful game, a tremendous serve; he can stay back or go into the net--it's just a matter of whether he peaks at the right time,\" said Laver, now 55 and living with Mary, his wife of 27 years, in Rancho Mirage. \"That's the all-important part of Pete's game--to come in strong and fresh and stay determined.\n\"If that's the case, he's got every chance to win. The clay is probably his toughest test. There are some great players out there who prefer the European clay. It's just a matter of playing your right game.\"\nLaver was at the top of his game in 1969, the first full year of the open era, and had plenty of incentive to show the world how well he could play. The major events were opened to professionals in 1968, so Laver was eligible to play in them for the first time since his 1962 Grand Slam, accomplished as an amateur.\nHis hope was to sweep.\n\"I went to Australia with that in mind,\" said the left-handed redhead from Rockhampton.\nLaver, in the pre-tiebreaker era, kept his dream alive by outlasting Roche in the two-hour second set of their semifinal match, which was played in 105-degree heat at Brisbane. Laver tried to beat the heat by draping cool, wet cabbage leaves inside his floppy sun hat.\n\"Fortunately, I grew up in that area and I knew what it was like,\" Laver said. \"You sort of have a mental feeling of what it's going to take. After the match, you certainly are tired and beat, but it's sort of a great feeling to come through a tough one like that.\"\nWithout a questionable call, he might have fallen short. Laver, having lost in the third and fourth sets after serving for the match at 8-7 in the third, led in the fifth, 4-3, with each player having held serve.\nIn the eighth game, free-lance writer Paul Fein later reported, \"Roche missed a volley, normally his forte, to fall behind, 15-30. That set up a huge pressure point and what would be one of the most famous--or rather infamous--line calls in tennis history. Roche spun his wickedly swerving southpaw serve into Laver's body. Laver sliced his return crosscourt and seemingly just outside the singles sideline.\n\"When the official signaled safe, the usually mild-mannered Roche became furious. He turned around and queried him, 'Did you actually make that call? Did you really see the ball? Do you think I stood out here for more than 4 1/2 hours to get a call like that?' \"\nLaver broke the crestfallen Roche, served out the match and didn't have nearly as much trouble in the final, winning in straight sets over Andres Gimeno of Spain.\nAlthough clay was far from his favorite surface, Laver also won rather easily at the French Open after surviving a two-set deficit in the second round against countryman Dick Crealy. Another Australian, Ken Roswall, fell in straight sets in the final. \"I probably played my best tennis in the final,\" Laver said. \"And with that win, I felt a lot more secure (about winning the Grand Slam). The next two (major tournaments) were on grass, and that was my favorite surface.\"\nAt Wimbledon, in a four-set final, Laver defeated countryman John Newcombe.\nMost Grand Slam Events Without Reaching Semifinals",

And on and on; the voters, who have a history of favoring mainstream bestsellers over challenging forces, ignored \"Highway 61 Revisited\" in 1965 and \"Blonde on Blonde\" in 1966.\nBut the National Academy of Recording Arts & Sciences--which honored Dylan with a lifetime achievement award in 1991--finally nailed one: It nominated Dylan's \"Time Out of Mind.\"\nIt's not an idle, nostalgic gesture. The album--a sobering work that reflects on the boundaries that age puts on a person's once limitless dreams--was widely hailed as the year's best.\nDon't, however, raise a toast too quickly.\nStrange things can happen in the final voting, the results of which will be announced Feb. 25 in New York.\nRemember last year, when the 9,000 academy voters sidestepped four outstanding nominees--including Beck's \"Odelay\" and the Babyface-designed \"Waiting to Exhale\"--and gave the award to Celine Dion's middlebrow \"Falling Into You\"?\nThere are several potential traps among the other four nominees for best album this time.\nVoters could be suckered into voting for another, far more popular '60s icon, Paul McCartney. His nominated album, \"Flaming Pie,\" is a pleasing but modest work, not even close to the accomplishment of \"Time Out of Mind.\"\nAnother mistake would be trying to make up for the failure last year to honor Babyface for \"Waiting to Exhale\" by voting for his \"The Day,\" a classy, but generally far less distinguished package. Paula Cole, too, is a singer-songwriter with ambition and range, but her \"This Fire\" album is too uneven to deserve its nomination.\nThe only real competition for Dylan, from a creative standpoint, is Radiohead's \"OK Computer.\" The British rock group's collection is an artful, icy look at life in an anxious, technological age. It was virtually as acclaimed as \"Time Out of Mind.\"\nIn the best single record of the year race, the most noteworthy aspect is what's missing--anything that had a trace of the hip-hop currents that dominated pop radio during 1997. No \"On and On\" by Erykah Badu, no \"Mo Money Mo Problems\" by the Notorious B.I.G. No \"Got 'Til It's Gone\" by Janet Jackson.\nInstead, the voters, with a homogenized vision that was both surprising and disappointing, leaned toward female singer-songwriters whose work was pleasant but unremarkable. Of the nominees, the most appealing record--listen to it closely before you laugh--was Hanson's \"MMMBop,\" pumped full of kiddie-pop zest.\nThe most fascinating match--best new artist--in the top categories pits Badu against Fiona Apple, the year's most provocative pop confessor. Those are both substantial talents. It's nice that we haven't had to wait 35 years for the Grammy voters to recognize them.\nSuze Rotolo dies at 67; Bob Dylan's girlfriend was on...",

        "raw_content": "This exhibition, titled with the punctuation \u201c\u2026\u201d, takes as its central theme the medium of typography and the form of the book. A series of altered books, titled Thumbsketches sculpturally intervenes in familiar texts, evoking bodily memories of books as sensual and intimate objects. The artist has drawn on the cut ends of paperback editions of such tomes as Balzac\u2019s Lost Illusions and The Complete Poems of Keats. When pressed behind plexiglas mounts, the drawings stretch and splay in animated shifts of perspective. The work leans upon and skews our associations of revered texts with irreverent, often scatological defacements.\nA companion work, a large canvas titled The following\u2026, uses hot foil stamped letters arranged in a grid. The text is taken from Michel Foucault\u2019s Les mots et les choses wherein he describes the painting Las Meninas by Velasquez. One word flows into another without punctuation marks and new words are created in the process, breaking down the authority of the descriptive text. The canvas, similar in scale to Las Meninas, comments on the differences in the use of allegory in the 17th and 20/21st centuries yet similarly \u2019hides\u2019 the subject as the central focal point of power.\nMarina Roy has exhibited her work nationally and internationally since 1992 and her practice includes a wide range of media including sculpture, printmaking, painting, photography and bookworks. She holds a Master\u2019s Degree in Visual Art from University of British Columbia and completed her undergraduate studies at Nova Scotia College of Art and Design. Prior to her study in visual arts, she received a Bachelor of Arts in French Literature from Universite Laval.

Academics, artists, curators and writers will speak at Emily Carr Institute over the course of five evenings in the fall of 2005. The speakers will consider Vancouver art and its institutions over the last two decades in particular, remarking on the economies at work. whether global, institutional or market. Addressing a perceived professionalization of the institution of art, the talks will collectively consider Vancouver\u2019s position within local, national and international art economies. The forum talks will be published in an anthology in 2006.\nSharla Sava: The Political Culture of the Counter-Tradition in Vancouver Art\nClint Burnham: Imperial Art: the Vancouver School in the age of Empire\nMarina Roy: The Art Star, the Academic, the Author, and the Activist: Art-writing in Vancouver 1990-2005\nTim Lee: Specific Objects and Social Subjects: Industrial Facture and the Production of Polemics in Vancouver\nSadira Rodrigues: Dealing (with) Cultural Diversity: Art and the Economies of Race\nRandy Lee Cutler: Vancouver Singular Plural: Art in an Age of Post-Medium Production\nReid Shier: Do Artists Need Artist Run Centres?\nShepherd Steiner: Beyond the \u201cIfs\u201d of an \u201cIfing\u201d Hermeneutic Economy: Examples from an Unsystematizable System\nMichael Turner: Who\u2019s Business Is It?

Vancouver\u2019s status is due not only to a thriving worldwide cultural community that has turned to examine the so-called periphery, but to the city\u2019s growth, its artists, expanding institutions, and a strong history of introspection and critical assessment. As a result, Vancouver art is visible and often understood as distinct and definable.This anthology intends to complicate the notion of definability. It offers nine essays to address the organized systems that have affected contemporary art in Vancouver over the last two decades.\nThe essays in Vancouver Art & Economies collectively remark, both compatibly and contradictorily, on the economies at work in Vancouver art \u2013 its historical, critical, and political engagement; its sites of cultural production; and its theoretical and practical intersection with technology or policy. Considering a selection of conditions, focuses, and resources within the community, Vancouver Art & Economies marks shifting ideologies and perspectives on art, politics, society, and capital in Vancouver.\nTitle: Sign After the X _______\nArtist: Marina Roy\nWriters: Marina Roy\nDesign: Dean Allen, Solo\nPublisher: Advance Editions, Artspeak\nBased on the connection between language and lack, Sign after the x investigates the letter x that is used in our culture as mnemonic, pictographic, and linguistic sign system that encompasses the evolution of language back to its mythic origins.\nIncluding Roy\u2019s drawings, the book uses narrative, and the conventions of the dedication, preface, introduction, postscript, errata, index and so forth to form a compendium of x words that is part philosophical treatise on the foundations of image and text, part illustration, part math lesson, and part language primer.",

        "raw_content": "Even in another bad, anonymous Grizzlies season, Gasol has continued to produce, scoring 15.7 points per game and grabbing 8.6 rebounds per game.\nThey traded Marc Gasol to the Toronto Raptors; Shelvin Mack to Atlanta; and Garrett Temple and JaMychal Green to the Clippers.\nBut the last time that Memphis traded a Gasol brother, it led to Pau Gasol's first championship in 2009, with the Los Angeles Lakers. The 76ers and Bucks have also made major moves as the trade deadline nears, with the Sixers landing Tobias Harris and Milwaukee getting Nikola Mirotic.\n\"I think with a player like Marc, we had talked about it for some time, it lined it up well for us I think (Gasol is still) a very strong player\".\nThe 34-year-old center leaves the Grizzlies as the all-time leader in points, blocks, and minutes played.\nGasol is eligible to become a free agent this offseason if he opts out of the final year of his $25.5 million contract due next year. The amount of his bonus (if not waived) will be applied to his $24.1 million salary.\nFriday, beleaguered general manager Chris Wallace met the media, explaining the moves the Grizzlies made at Thursday's deadline, sending Gasol to Toronto, shipping out three other players for guys with upside and financial and roster flexibility, and moving forward. The 7-foot big man had surgery for a dislocated thumb December 12, and hasn't played in a contest since his procedure.\nValanciunas is averaging 12.8 points and 7.2 rebounds this season with the Raptors. Valanciunas is a solid player, but he doesn't make much sense for the Grizzlies long term, and neither does Miles.\nLeonard also has a player option for 2019-20, worth $21 million.\nMemphis is now $668,000 below the luxury tax threshold. Casspi, 30, has been sidelined with a knee injury, and his return this season wasn't guaranteed. The 6-6 swingman is averaging 5.5 points.",

        "raw_content": "Australian patients struggling to access medical cannabis are welcoming the Australian government\u2019s announcement last week to allow importers to source cannabis products from international suppliers. The change is expected to ensure that patients currently waiting for medicine obtain it within eight weeks. But uncertainty still surrounds the changes, and experts are now calling for a more comprehensive approach to meeting Australian demand for medical cannabis.\nProfessor David Allsop is an associate director of the Lambert Initiative at the University of Sydney, a project exploring how cannabis can treat childhood epilepsy and other serious diseases. Allsop believes that while imported cannabis will help fill the immediate patient need, further regulatory reforms are still needed to ensure fair and adequate access.\nThe change, \u201cdoes not solve an issue installed by the Federal Government in November 2016, when access to medical cannabis was removed from the Category A route of the TGA\u2019s Special Access Scheme, \u201d Allsop told Leafly. \u201cCannabis is the only scheduled drug to have been excluded from this route of access\u2014 meaning that terminally ill patients cannot gain ready access in the timeframes appropriate to their dire situation, despite being arguably one of the patient groups most likely to benefit.\u201d\n\u201cIt also doesn\u2019t change the fact that in order to gain access, a doctor still needs to make the application, \u201d he continued. \u201cMost doctors either do not know how to apply, do not have the required training or expertise to apply, or are politically or philosophically against supporting a medical cannabis application.\u201d\nPatient advocates hope the change will raise the profile of medical cannabis with doctors and lead to a better understanding within the medical community of the prescription process.\nUniversity of Adelaide Dr. Scott Smid echoed the need for broader acceptance in order to \u201censure that the use of medicinal cannabis is safe and effectively targeted.\u201d The key to ensuring that acceptance, he said, is further research and clinical trials. Smid thinks the government\u2019s recent changes are likely to accelerate that research.\nBut there\u2019s another issue: Australia\u2019s nascent initiative to boost locally grown medical cannabis. Allsop thinks it\u2019s unclear \u201cwhether allowing bulk importation and storage from overseas will in anyway interfere with the Federal Government\u2019s November 2016 legislation, designed to encourage local Australian companies to establish growing and manufacturing operations for medical cannabis here in Australia. It could be that allowing overseas importation lends significant competition to these emerging enterprises making it difficult to justify business models to investors.\u201d\nThe national Office of Drug Control has yet to issue any licenses or permits for growing medical cannabis, but it appears the value of those licenses\u2014especially given the high cost of doing business in Australia\u2014may fall due to a sudden influx of imported products. Nevertheless, shares of listed Australian cannabis businesses posted strong gains after the announcement. The long-term impact of importation remains to be seen.\nWhat\u2019s clear for now is that the changes represent a legitimization of medical cannabis, which is a political win for the Australian government and a vote of economic confidence for cannabis as a medicine. Perhaps that confidence will support local growers while the other pieces of the puzzle, such as wider acceptance from the medical community, continue to fall into place.\nSource: www.leafly.com\n- Why is Australia Called Down under?",

        "raw_content": "Unfortunately, some of my on-line friends feel very strongly that the pres should do anything and everything to protect the US from the bad guys. They really don't care if the NSA is finding out if they're gossiping about their next door neighbor. They say that since we are a nation at war, everything must be done to win the war, including wiretapping suspected terrorists. But, they don't get that the NSA is probably not just tapping into suspected terrorists, but probably anyone that 'they' deem to be an emeny of their will and ideology. Then they continue to spout that since Carter and Clinton did wiretapping then why can't Bush??? I don't see where 2 wrongs make a right.\nWhat's next in protecting US citizens?? Checkpoints???\nThing is, it's quite legal to wire-tap suspected terrorists. All you have to do is get a warrant from the FISA secret court. There hasn't been a single FISA warrant turned down since 9/11. You don't even need to have the warrant before you start wire-tapping the suspected terrorist. If you're listening to a terrorist's phone and he calls someone else who might even hypothetically be a terrorist, you can start wire-tapping that other person's phone immediately and apply for a FISA warrant later.\nSo why aren't the Bushies getting a FISA warrant?\nThe Bushies refuse to answer that question, other than to occasionally lie about the FISA law.\nAs for the \"But Clinton did it!\" defense, my reply to that one is simple. \"Clinton was evil. It sounds to me like you're saying Bush is evil too.\" Thus far no Bushbot has managed anything other than sputtering and gasping at that, because the notion that anybody who disliked Bush could have *also* disliked Clinton blows their feeble little minds. (For the record, I spent most of the Clinton administration as part of the cyber-libertarian movement fighting his plans to turn the Internet into a vast wire-tapping spy network... we won, too. Temporarily).\nYeah, funny how we come to find out now just how Clinton betrayed his base. The rotten \"triangulator\". It's why I'll never vote for his wife either!\nYeah, I know they just had to go up the street to FISA judge and get permission after the fact. The conservatives I know, know that too. But, they keep telling me that this is of the utmost urgency that there's no time to consult with a judge. They keep ignoring getting permission after the fact. And they also say.. well, we may be able to tap for 72 hours on a suspect, but what if they don't say something incriminating during that 72 hours and therefore can't get permission to continue..... Please....\n(For the record, I spent most of the Clinton administration as part of the cyber-libertarian movement fighting his plans to turn the Internet into a vast wire-tapping spy network... we won, too. Temporarily).\nYep temporarily is the key word. The FCC is making many institutions put 'back doors' into their networks to allow the FBI 'easier' access. It was on the local news early in December here. I can't remember all the detail, but would like more info on it. The story was in relation to one of the State Universities and them having to shell out thousands of dollars to comply. Not sure, why they have to comply though. The institutions all have to pay for the 'upgrade' themselves and within the next year. Now, tell me that's not trying to control information??? It was done with an executive order and policy statement by the FCC, IIRC.\nThe current FISA laws, passed during the Clinton Administration after the Oklahoma City bombing, require that the judges law enforcement officer that he believes that a person may have information relevant to ongoing terrorism investigations. If a law enforcement officer makes that statement, the FISA court is *required* to issue the warrant. No other evidence is needed. There is no requirement in current law that incriminating facts be discussed before a warrant is issued. Simply receiving a phone call from someone considered a possible terrorism suspect is all the probable cause needed in order to get a FISA warrant.\nReally, they just rubber-stamp the things (FISA warrants). Like I said, they haven't turne done down since 9/11. I cannot think of any instance mentioned by the right wingnuts which would have any difficulty getting a FISA warrant.\nSo why not get the warrant? Huh?\nUnless... unless the people the Busheviks want to spy on are not, in fact, terror suspects. Unless the people they want to spy on are political opponents, and they can't find law enforcement officers willing to perjure themselves in court and say that said opponents may have information relevant to an ongoing terrorism investigation. But no, that couldn't be it, no way, no how!",

        "raw_content": "Today the cable company came and installed both cable and broadband internet \u2014 yippee! I am very excited to have real internet again. However, I am here to say that waiting for the cable company in Edinburgh is just like waiting for the cable company in Chicago.\nThe notice arrives: \u201cWe will be at your house between 10:00 am and 2:00 pm.\u201d Someone has to be here to let them in. This week is fall break at every school in Scotland, so our landlady, her kids, and various other family members of theirs are out of town on holiday. Our landlord is at work.\nThat\u2019s okay, I tell Leanne, our landlady. We can stay here and wait for the cable company, after all, it is for our benefit, and I am looking forward to being able to watch more Pointless shows about potatoes.\nSo I make sure I am ready by 10:00, in case he comes early. Someone has to be first on the list. I want to know how to make sure I am first on the daily list. When it says, \u201cWe will be there between 10:00 and \u2026\u201d who gets the 10:00 slot? It wasn\u2019t us.\nAt noon, I ate lunch. At 1:30, the phone rang, it was Leanne. She says (to the distant music of screaming children in the background), that the installer is running late, and he\u2019ll be here by \u2026what did she say? I think she said 2:00. Oh, and she\u2019s having a marvellous time with her kids. What with all the screaming in the background, I am not so sure about that. But she sounded happy enough.\nAt 2:10, I realise I mis-heard her. Not 2:00 \u2014 that was on a good day. She must\u2019ve said 3:00.\nI looked out the window. Sigh. My one sadness for today. It was sunny. Brilliant, blue-sky sunny. The only day all week we are supposed to get sunshine. I had planned to climb Arthur\u2019s Seat today, the hill just outside Edinburgh with views all the way to \u2026 well, it doesn\u2019t matter now.\nSometime between 3:00 and 3:30, someone finally showed up, but by then I had stopped looking at the clock. I wasn\u2019t going hiking today.\nHe spent a few minutes fretting over cords that didn\u2019t make sense and trying to remember our landlady\u2019s instructions, but that didn\u2019t take very long. As it turns out, he was both friendly and knowledgeable. He apologised for being so late and explained the house he had just come from had Tivo installed, which takes forever to do, and is complicated, and please don\u2019t say we\u2019re having it installed also, because he\u2019d really like to go home and eat dinner with his girlfriend, which he hadn\u2019t been able to do yesterday since he worked until 9:30 last night.\nThen he started pulling boxes out of boxes and a unrolled a roll of cable and opened a tool bag David was drooling over. And it was all over in a matter of minutes. Our internet is brilliant, and the television now has more channels than I could ever care about.\nAt 5:15 I turned on Pointless and prayed for potatoes (I\u2019ve been reading up). And then came my other all-time favourite category: Sports commentators and their sports.",

        "title": "BARE RECORD OF TRUTH: 280: THE REST OF THE STORY",
        "raw_content": "280: THE REST OF THE STORY\nBack in the 1970's, Paul Harvey hosted a radio program called The Rest of the Story. It consisted of little-known or forgotten facts on a variety of subjects with some key element of the story (usually the name of some well-known person) held back until the end. The broadcasts always concluded with a variation on the tag line \"And now you know the rest of the story.\"\nThe last blog post described one element/symbol shown to me on my hike up Big Cottonwood Canyon. Here is one additional photo of Lake Mary that I took from a higher vantage point. On the right, you can see the man-made dam that controlled the living water. On the left you can see just a small pool of water remaining. It is hard to see but the lake probably was a least 40 feet deep.\nI thought I should share some additional \"little known\" key facts/symbols from the hike.. so if anyone reads this they can know the \"rest of the story\" from the hike.\nThe weather on the day of my hike was hot and sunny. Not a cloud in the sky. It was a clear day. When I began my hike, I was surprised to see the moon still visible in the Western sky. Usually the moon is no longer visible at that time of day and has descended below the horizon. It was interesting to note how close the sun and moon were to each other, both still visible together.\nSEVEN WOMAN:\nI was not the only one hiking this trail to Lake Mary. A group of women had already hiked to the top and were descending down. They passed me. I thought I counted seven women, but my wife was able to see an eighth woman in the photo. (one is not clearly visible in the photo). It was symbolic for me to first see the moon that late in the day, and then to see a group of women consisting of at least 7. There was a lesson for me to learn from that.\nWHITE HAWK:\nUsually on my hikes I will see symbolic wildlife. Once I reached the peak of the mountain, I was able to see Mount Timpanogas in the distance. I hiked Mt. Timpanogas last year on the Summer Solstice when there was still in the snow on the trail. In the highest tree I noticed a beautiful white bird. (you can see in perched on the left pine tree).\nHere is a zoomed-up photo of the bird. I am not sure what kind of bird it is. To me it looks like a type of hawk that is white. It looked very stately. I found the bird to be majestic and beautiful. It was watching me and did not fly away. Most times I am unable to get a photo of the wildlife that I encounter because I can't get my camera out in time.\nLOST KEYS:\nAs I was hiking down, a woman was hiking up and stopped me. She was distraught and in her frantic state asked me for some help. She had lost her keys and had no idea where to look and how they all of a sudden were missing. She was wondering if I had seen them on the trail. Unable to go anywhere since they were keys to her car and her home, she was stuck. I told her I had not seen them, but I would keep my eyes open for her in case I came across them. I continued hiking down and saw something shiny on a rock. It was a set of keys. I picked them up and noticed it had a white plastic barcode key tag on her keyring. I was stunned to see that it said City Creek on it. It was her membership to the City Creek Gym. There was a message for me on these lost keys. I turned around and hiked back up to find this woman. I returned the keys to her. She was overwhelmed with gratitude that her keys had been restored to her. I asked if could take a picture to tell my wife this story. When I took the photo, I noticed the gold tree on her key ring. I only noticed this once the keys were given back to her. This emblem looked like the Tree of Life.\nI couldn't help but notice the abundance of sunflowers on my hike. They radiant warmth and appear to be the happiest of flowers, and their meanings include loyalty and longevity. They are unique in their ability to provide energy in the form of nourishment and vibrance, an attribute which mirrors the sun and the energy provided by its heat and light. With brilliant yellow petals that surround the flower\u2019s center, sunflowers have an unmistakable sun-like appearance. The sunflowers open up and follow the Sun throughout the day.\nLIVING WATER:\nThis last image is of Lake Katherine. It is the highest lake of the sister lakes up Big Cottonwood Canyon. It mirrors the sky in heaven. What is seen and done above is reflected down below in the water. \ufeff",

        "raw_content": "The Infinet\nAuthor: John Akers\nAfter reading plenty of sub-par first novels from aspiring authors, The Infinet was a breath of fresh air. I was also pleasantly surprised that this book was written during a National Novel Writing Month, thus proving how useful the NaNoWriMo challenge is for people to get their stories out there. In the five years between the writing and publishing of this book, it looks like a lot of care went into polishing it into the entertaining and brilliant book that exists today.\nThere are plenty of things that The Infinet gets right when it comes to speculative science fiction. First, it doesn\u2019t dwell on the details of the \u201chard science,\u201d but it does mention the concepts in passing. As far as I can tell, the ideas presented here are accurate, which is key for this genre. Secondly, so many authors put their personal biases into their narratives, which can sour the experience for anyone who doesn\u2019t agree with them. John Akers does a fantastic job of being mostly neutral on hot-button topics by presenting both sides of the arguments in an evenhanded and non-confrontational style.\nAnd while I loved a lot of the little references and clever wordings (like the eponymous Infinet), the book still has a few flaws. The \u201chistory lesson\u201d was perhaps a little bloated, some of the logic decisions of the kidnappers seemed odd, and the action near the end was initially confusing despite being explained afterward. Despite these things, the characters were well-rounded and realistic, if not an outright joy to follow along as the plot weaved around them. The fact that there was little to no \u201cfluff\u201d in the interconnecting pieces of the plot (another strength) was just the icing on the cake.\nA prime example of how to do speculative hard sci-fi correctly, I give The Infinet 4.0 stars out of 5.",

Motel, provides lodging for motorists in rooms usually having direct access to an open parking area.\nHotel or motel can be classified by a number of characteristics as:\nRange of services, full or limited\nLocation\u200b, metropolitan area, the state or region in which it is located\nIt's price or rate level\nWhether it is independent or part of a chain operation\nOverall, sales from hotels account for 87.4% of industry revenue and 82.0% of industry employment, though they account for only 44.0% of industry establishments.\nHotels that consist of 25 or more rooms provide 83.6% of industry revenue (with 62.7% of industry revenue coming from guest room rentals, 12.5% coming from food and alcohol sales, 4.2% coming from conference and meeting rooms and 4.2% coming from other charges), while hotels that offer fewer than 25 rooms only constitute 3.8% of industry revenue.\nMotels provide about 12.6% of industry revenue. The relative proportion of revenue from each of these segments has been relatively stable over the past five years, although motels experienced some growth at the expense of higher-priced hotels during the recession.\nHow to generate revenues and profits?\nBasically, hotels generate revenues and profits from selling out their rooms.\nAlso, other key sources of revenue to consider are additional services that hotel provides as restaurant or bar on site, selling conference and meeting rooms.\nExternal factors which affect the hotel market\nDomestic trips by US residents: Trends in domestic travel, especially business travel, and the total nights spent away from home directly affect demand for accommodation. As the number of trips made by US citizens rises, demand for hotels and motels to house them increases.\nConsumer Confidence index: Changes in consumer confidence influence decisions that individuals make concerning expenditure on entertainment and traveling, particularly during a recession.\nConsumer spending: Consumer spending levels have a direct effect on travel demand. When consumers are spending more overall, they are more likely to spend some of their money on travel and accommodations.\nInbound trips by non-US residents: Trends in international visitor arrivals and their lengths of stay influence demand for accommodation. A rise in inbound trips positively affects demand for hotels and motels.\nLeaders in the hotel market\nAs specified above, there are 74,372 hotels in the United States.\nThe market leaders (in terms of market share) include Hilton Worldwide Holdings Inc. (13.7%), Marriott\nInternational Inc. (13.5%) and InterContinental Hotels Group PLC (7.5%).\nThe rest of the market is comprised of many smaller players.",

Does it really destroy bacteria? It\u2019s not often that we see such innovative technology in a simple paper product. From the Stevie Awards in Abu Dhabi, to the Environmental Leader Technology Reviews in the United States, this innovation has won prestigious honours.\nLast week, a team from Cascades attended the Edison Awards Ceremony in Chicago, since the Cascades Antibacterial was nominated in the Cleaning Solutions category, and returned home with a gold medal! Again? Yes, but this time, looking at the list of winners, it\u2019s impossible to ignore the fact that Cascades has joined the big shots in the world of creation and innovation.\nHere are just a few of this year\u2019s winning creations: the Boeing 787 Dreamliner, the AT&T remote app, the new 3M LED light bulb, Liquid Robotics\u2019 marine robot for ocean observation, the hybrid excavator by Caterpillar Inc., and Cascades Antibacterial, of course! But wait, that\u2019s not all! The Edison Awards, named in honour of famous inventor Thomas Edison, are bestowed by an international judging panel of more than 3 000 business executives, academics and leaders in the fields of product development, design, engineering, science and medicine. They are one of the highest accolades a company can receive for successful innovation.\nThis honour, along with those already received, has a significant impact on Cascades. The company has been innovating for almost 50 years, and it is thanks to this ongoing innovation that Cascades has grown from a small family business into a multinational public corporation. Our current offer of value added products has allowed us to share the podium with the likes of Boeing and 3M, and represents what we have become: leaders in innovation.\nFor more information on the Edison Awards and a list of the winners, visit www.edisonawards.com.\nTags: antibacterial, bacteria, cascades, company, Edison Awards, Environmental Leader Technology, family business, honour, innovation, innovative, paper, product, Stevie Awards, technology, towel, winner",

        "raw_content": "What do researchers do?\nMost of my friends (and maybe even my colleagues) don't have much idea of what I do day-to-day. That's the subject of this blog. Modern research is quantified in terms of published articles, but that forms just a small part of daily working life, and the process from conceiving an interesting question or idea to published article is a long and tortuous one. Often articles aren't published until months or years after the research was conducted, and so there is a time-lag between what appears in print and what the current focus of research is. By that time the initial excitement of pursuing novel work is a distant memory, having been supplanted by several rounds of peer review, revision and resubmission.\nSo this is an attempt to communicate what I am doing now, to talk about what I think's exciting this week (or this afternoon) and to show what being a researcher means on a daily basis.\nLabels: Me, Peer Review, Publishing, Research\nEtharooni - etharooni.wordpress.com said...\n'Ello!

        "title": "MICHAEL ANTHONY MURPHY :: BLOG: strange days",
        "raw_content": "If you're a regular reader of the blog you may have noticed that I've missed writing a post here or there. Or, on the other hand, you couldn't give two shits if I miss a week of posting. I'm hoping the later isn't the case and if you are part of the former, please allow me to explain.\nTypically, I write a blog post every weekend, no matter what. There are lots of readers and I do my damnedest to produce new photography and an interesting story/tutorial to go with it, week in and week out. The blog now has been active for 2+ years. A monster I've created and one that cannot be stopped. Fear not fellow people of the blogosphere, I'm here to stay and promise to bring with it, many more interesting stories about my journey on this planet as a photographer.\nSo, why have I been slipping? Well, I don't think I have. There are a couple reasons to justify my statement.\nFirst, I'd rather qualify my posts rather than simply quantify for quantity's sake. Huh? Look, on more than one occasion, I have sat down at my computer, with nothing but crickets chirping in my brain and I'd still spew out some garbage, with total disregard of quality, just trying to make my weekly quota of postings. I've since came to the conclusion that this could and would hurt the blog more than anything. SEO experts would disagree, stating that consistency is the most important factor for traffic accumulation in the maintenance of a blog. In the past I used to read and write according to SEO advices. Over the years of writing I have since ignored many of these theories and instead decided to simply post when my heart tells me it is time. I have thousands and thousands of photos in my archives. Trust me, there is no shortage of images to post and teach about. Somedays I just don't have it in me to write about anything and decided it's best to stay away from my keyboard on those days. SEO? blah! Since ignoring their practices, I can say that the blog has never been better, in terms of visitors and rankings.\nSecond, projects have been keeping me extremely busy. No excuses here. As a photographer, I'd rather be out shooting or working on projects. Without those, this blog could not exist. What projects do I speak of?\nThe biggie on my list, which has grown wings and taken off, is the short film. Since conception, I've been putting all of my thought and time into bringing this film to life. Recruiting crew members, actors, writers, composers and even equipment is no easy task. The latest mission in relation to the film was location scouting. Together, the screenwriter and myself hit the road, trying to see how close our mental images of the film actually are. Needless to say, we need to work on narrowing our visual gap. No problem as Edward Campbell, the screenwriter, and myself seem to have lots of chemistry and passion for bringing my story to life. More on that later.\nJust as important as the film project, but much more frustrating, is the building of my new website. Soon, when you arrive to this blog, you will be redirected to my new CMS. Nothing against blogger but as my client base has been expanding, I feel that I need more than just a blog. A proper portfolio based site is what I'm developing. Problem is, my frugality. Being a super nerd, I have been telling myself that I can build the site, on my own, with no help. I know a tiny bit of coding, less of CSS. Basically, any building I've done has been through trial and error. Fact of the matter is that it's much harder than I thought it would be. I will give it some more time but my patience has been wearing thin. Bringing in a pro to develop the site is becoming more and more a reality. Is a site really necessary? Annie Leibovitz doesn't have a website. She's not on Facebook or Twitter or Google+ for that matter. So how does she get the work that she does? Well, she's Annie Leibovitz. Michael Anthony Murphy needs a website. Michael Anthony Murphy doesn't hang out with The Rolling Stones. Michael Anthony Murphy doesn't shoot for Louis Vuitton on a daily basis. Michael Anthony Murphy has to work for his work. Annie Leibovitz, on the other hand, has been shooting rock stars and the world famous longer than I've been alive. Annie doesn't need a website.\nWhat The F%@k Does This Have To Do With A Photo Of Birds?!\nMany have asked me how I come up with the content that I do. How do I have so much to write about all of the photos I post?\nA picture's worth a thousand words right? Cliche? Not really. As a reader or admirer or hater, for that matter, of my images, you can come up with your own thousand words about the photo. That's all and good. What I like to share is the BTS story, that which goes unseen. I like to share the good, the bad, the dirty, the ugly, the sweat and the tears of what I often go through to make some images. Along with the story, as you already know, I share my nerd files, the geek-a-licious information of how to create certain images. The combination of some entertainment and nerdiness is my end goal here.\nMany days, before writing a post, I go through my photo library, thinking about which photo I should choose to write about. Sometimes the decision process is fast and easy. I usually like to write about newest shoots, as the stories are so fresh in my brain. Sometimes I decide on one from the archives. But how do I choose? What happens when I'm scrolling through thousands and thousands of images, is that one of them will stop me dead in my tracks. I immediately recall the days events leading up to and after the instant the frame was captured.\nThis is exactly what happened today when I sat down to write a post. Initially, I was going to write about something totally different. When I came across this image, I knew I had to write about it. It's not a photograph that will end up in my portfolio or hanging on my wall, for that matter. So why is it the chosen one? Do you see what I see? Let me guide you through that day's occurrences.\nIt was a warm day in August. I had to meet with director/producer Karol Escobar, regarding some still photography work I had to do for her film, \"All Hallows' Eve.\" We were to meet in South Philly. On most days, lazy me, would have hopped in a cab as the destination was about a mile and a half from my digs in Rittenhouse Square. Shockingly, I decided to take the walk and while walking, capture as much interesting street photos as possible.\nI packed light with only the Nikon D4, the Nikon 85 1.8G, Nikon 50 1.4G, one 285HV and a pair of PWs.\nWalking from Rittenhouse to South Philly will bring with it the sights of many interesting people and places. You just have to know which streets are filled with the most interest. Closing in on the neighborhood border, I decided to head down to the Italian market. The Italian market is a stretch of famous butcher, cheese, fish, veggie and other fresh food markets, as well as some awesome restaurants. The dividing line is Washington Avenue. Most of the original remaining grocers are on the north side of Washington Ave. On the south side there are some scattered originals but mixed with those are some newer Asian and Mexican storefronts. I decided to find some interest along the south side as the shops on the north side have probably seen more cameras than I have. With Rocky Balboa bringing increased fame to the Italian Market, many tourists make it a point to grab some snaps of the famous stretch. I went for the road less traveled.\nAlong the block there are Mexican music shops, international cell phone dealers, T-shirt vendors and more. All of these storefronts covered as they have most of their inventory out front for passerby's to take notice of. I'm not being pretentious or a snob by any means but most of this stuff is crap. I think there's even one shop selling VHS tapes and low res televisions. If I'm not mistaken, I think I even saw one of those TV/VHS player combos. Remember those? Jeez, they were junk from the day they were introduced.\nFurther down the street I noticed the cages. Piled high to the ceiling were imprisoned birds. Many were baby chickens and other species that I could not identify. Funny thing about it was that If my memory serves me right, the store that was selling the birds was not even a pet shop of any kind. I actually think they may have been selling T-shirts and birds! Look out Wal-Mart!\nI was going to capture some store workers or some wide shots of the sidewalk displays. As I was strapping the 85 to my camera, I noticed that some of these cages were loaded with pigeons!!! Yes, that deserved a triple exclamation. Pigeons for Christ's sake. What the eff are people buying pigeons for? Hmmm. Let's think about this scenario.\nDo pigeons make for cute pets? Umm, no. Can pigeons be trained to send miniature messages, hung around their neck, around the globe? Umm, yes. Thinking about the fact that these vendors are selling VHS tapes and 8-track players, I'm guessing their clientele is not too internet savvy and still uses messenger pigeons to communicate long distances. Ok, that was mean but I think I'd be happier to accept that reason than what I think the real truth is.\nWhy would this Asian storefront be selling caged pigeons?",

        "raw_content": "TV Land Gets Weekend Makeover, New Mini-Marathon Madness; Logo Acquires Absolutely Fabulous\nTV Land has announced it will be changing its weekend schedule starting this coming weekend (April 2-3). The three-week CSI March weekend stunt will not be carrying over into April, but also the schedule that was originally scheduled for weekends in April will not be happening either. Extreme Makeover: Home Edition returns and will air weekends from 10am-1pm, as The Nanny is reduced to 7am-10am and I Dream of Jeannie is no longer airing on weekends. Then from 1pm-5pm, a block of The Andy Griffith Show will air instead of Bewitched, which will remain totally off the schedule even after the 3-week CSI stunt. A triple shot of Sanford & Son will air from 5pm-6:30pm, followed by three episodes of All in the Family from 6:30p-8pm. On Saturdays it is 6:30pm-9pm, though. That's all that isn't changing, though! There are some minor changes to the weekday line-up as well, starting next week (Monday, April 4). Weekdays at 1pm will have another episode of Gunsmoke, replacing Bonanza. The 12 noon episode of Gunsmoke will still air, too, and Bonanza will air still at 2pm & 3pm. It will also gain the 4om hour, replacing back-to-back The Andy Griffith Show, which will just air on weekends now. The 5pm hour will still be Good Times and The Jeffersons, but 6pm-9pm will be now three episodes each of Sanford & Son (6pm-7:30pm) and All in the Family (7:30pm-9pm), as they switch timeslots. And finally, TV Land will launch a new late night block titled Mini Marathon Madness starting Monday, April 18, 2011! The block will air seven nights a week with two or three blocks of sitcoms every night! But before we get to that, weekdays in the 11am hour will now be All in the Family and Sanford & Son replacing The Nanny and Boston Legal returns airing five mornings a week at 5am replacing M*A*S*H. Back to Mini Marathon Madness, on Mondays from 10pm-12am will be The Nanny, followed by Roseanne from 12am-2:30am and M*A*S*H from 2:30am-5am. The TV Land Monday night movie will move from 9-11pm to 8-10pm. On Tuesdays during Mini Marathon Madness, it is Roseanne from 11pm-2am and Home Improvement from 2am-5am. On Wednesdays, it is an encore of Home Improvement from 11pm-2am followed by Three's Company from 2am-5am. Thursdays has Three's Company from 11:30pm-2am followed by The Nanny from 2am-5am. The Friday Mini Marathon Madness block has The Nanny from 11:30pm-2am then Roseanne from 2am-6am. Everybody Loves Raymond airs in the 11pm half-hour on Thursdays and Fridays, in addition to its 9-11pm airings. Saturdays has more Roseanne from 12:30am-2:30am then a block of Three's Company from 2:30am-6am. And finally, Sundays has Three's Company from 12:30am-3am and then The Nanny from 3am-5am. Everything else in April 2011 is the same as we previously announced. View the TV Land April 2011 schedule. Stay tuned for the May 2011 schedule very soon! Stay with us.\nLogo announced it acquired the complete, five-season series of the camp, cult-hit Absolutely Fabulous. To kick off the Logo premiere, Absolutely Fabulous will launch with a weekend-long marathon beginning Saturday, April 16th at 2 p.m. ET/PT. The Britcom will move to its permanent timeslot with episodes airing every Thursday at 10 p.m. ET/PT on Logo. Absolutely Fabulous follows publicist Edina Monsoon (Jennifer Saunders) and her best friend, fashion director Patsy Stone (Joanna Lumley) as they live the life of excess in every possible way. The sitcom chronicles these middle-aged women and their desperate attempt to do anything to stay relevant and hip. As they teeter toward decadence through alcohol, cigarettes and fashion, Edina and Patsy find themselves in unbelievable, hilarious situations. Their poor judgment and misadventures include a full cast of eccentric characters including Saffy (Julia Sawalha), Edina's voice-of-reason daughter; Bubble, Edina's babbling, animated assistant; and Edina's oblivious mother. The series ran originally on BBC from 1992-96, with a revival and specials airing from 2001 to 2004.\nLabels: All in the Family, Andy Griffith Show, Bewitched, Extreme Makeover: Home Edition, I Dream of Jeannie, Logo, Sanford and Son, TV Land",

That is three illnesses I have had since I got off the ice. Some say it is because my immune system is off since I was in a realitively germ free environment in Antarctica. I am not sure. I don't like being sick. I do have a lot on my mind but that still didn't keep me from doing nothing today. Sitting around doesn't help the self esteem, but it might recharge the batteries sometimes. I had a nice quiet birthday.\nRosey is doing better but can't quite get up on her own. We are giving her homeopathic cures as well as horse asprin. A heat lamp has helped her too. We shall see as it gets warmer out. She has lost some weight so that is good. The chickens are well and have been cruising the farm, but tonight everyone is in lock-down for weather.\nI have been staying in touch with folks from the ice. It is a bit like a fraternity. You have some strong common special experiences. One of the folks is (hopefully) going to fly up here in a couple of months. I haven't met him face-to-face, but he was working commercial radio interests on the other side of the continent and we met up on the ham bands.\nI have also found a great way to waste time, looking for interesting videos on youtube. Here is one. The story behind the video is that the control surfaces were locked and not-unlocked for flight.\nPreflight!!!\nTry this... watch this most unsafe style of automobile racing:\nhttp://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=rally+crash",

        "raw_content": "Was a 19th Century American Preacher Really Watchmaker Mendel Deniss, Jerusalem\u2019s 1st Photographer?\nMendenhall John Dennis in the center surrounded by his family in 1885. After 1860\nhe lived in Ohio, Massachusetts and Washington. Before 1860 he was Mendel\nDiness of Jerusalem (With permission of Special Collections, Fine Arts Library, Harvard University)\nIn 1988, John Barnier visited a garage sale in St. Paul, Minnesota. There he found and purchased eight boxes of old photographic glass plates. Fortunately, Barnier is an expert in the history of photographic printing.\nHe had little idea that he had uncovered a historic treasure. Later, he viewed the plates and saw that they included old pictures of Jerusalem. He contacted the Harvard Semitic Museum in Cambridge, Massachusetts, known for its large collection of old photographs from the Middle East.\nOn some of the plates they found the initials MJD. Until then the name Mendel Diness was barely known by scholars. It was assumed that with the exception of one or two photos his collection was lost.\nThe Western Wall, photographed by Diness. Unlike most early pictures of the Wall, Diness pointed his camera to the south and not to the north. (With permission of Special Collections, Fine Arts Library, Harvard University. 1859)\nThanks to the research of historians and curators Dror Wahrman, Nitza Rosovsky and Carney Gavin, the Diness collection was saved from obscurity, and an amazing tale was revealed: American Christian preacher Mendenhall John Dennis and Jerusalemite yeshiva student and watchmaker Mendel Diness were one and the same.\nDiness was born in Odessa in 1827 into a religious Jewish family. As a boy he apprenticed as a watchmaker; as a teen he went to study in Heidelberg and was influenced by the anti-religious \u201cenlightenment movement.\u201d His concerned father sent him to Palestine in 1848 to a yeshiva to strengthen his Jewish faith.\nBut in 1849 he met a Christian missionary who started him on his path to Christianity. His conversion caused a major controversy in the Old City of Jerusalem. Diness was excommunicated from the Jewish community, lost his business, and was forced to divorce his wife, Shayndel Reisa, who was from a hassidic Chabad family in Hebron.\nPicture by Mendel Diness of Mishkenot Sha\u2019ananim in Jerusalem under construction, beneath Moshe Montifiore\u2019s windmill. The building project was the first Jewish neighborhood built outside of the Old City (1860, Special Collections, Fine Arts Library, Harvard University.)\nDiness was taken in by Christian missionaries and families, including the British Consul, James Finn, who baptized the new convert. His wife, Elizabeth Finn, a fan of the new photography art, was close to a Scottish missionary, James Graham, who taught Diness the new field of photography. It was not simply a question of learning to press a button on a camera, but it involved a lengthy and difficult process of preparing emulsions and plates (not film), mastering light, exposures and the science of developing the pictures.\nThe Damascus Gate photographed by Diness (circa 1856)\nBy 1856, Mendel Diness was photographing on his own. By the end of the decade, however, other photographers had flocked to Jerusalem, and Diness found the competition daunting. In 1861, he moved to the United States with his new wife, the daughter of a Jewish doctor who had converted to Christianity. Diness was unsuccessful as a photographer in Cincinnati, Ohio and became a peripatetic preacher, renamed as Mendenhall John Dennis.\nHow did the Dennis/Diness\u2019 collection end up in St. Paul? When he died in 1900 his belongings were apparently sent to his daughter in New Jersey. When her daughter died, a grandson cleaned out her attic and took the crates to Minnesota. The family was unaware of Dennis/Diness\u2019 Jerusalem photography background.\nA footnote: Diness was not the only Jewish photographer in the Holy Land who converted to Christianity. Peter Bergheim, a German Jew who converted in the 1830s in England, arrived in Palestine in 1838. He worked as pharmacist and then opened a bank. By 1859 he had become an accomplished photographer, apparently working for the British Ordnance Survey team. (His works appear frequently on the pages of www.israeldailypicture.com.)\nElijah Meyers (circa 1910)\nSeveral years later Elijah Meyers, a Bombay, India Jew who converted to Christianity, appeared on the scene. He was the founder and director of the American Colony Photo Department in 1898, but \u201che had been taking photographs before he became connected to the American Colony,\u201d according to a Colony publication. He trained a team in the art of photography and documented the visit of the German Kaiser in 1898 with pictures sold around the world. According to sources at the Library of Congress, Meyers was hired by Theodor Herzl to photograph Jewish settlements prior to the 1899 Zionist Congress in Basel.\nFor more historical photographs and essays go to www.israeldailypicture.com\nFor more information on Mendel Diness we recommend:\n\u201cThe Life and Works of the Photographer Mendel John Diness,\u201d Cathedra, (Yad Yitzhak Ben-Zvi) by Nitza Rosovsky and Carney Gavin (Hebrew)\n\u201cMendel Diness \u2013 The First Professional Jerusalemite Photographer,\u201d Cathedra, (Yad Yitzhak Ben-Zvi) by Professor Dror Wahrman (Hebrew)\n\u201cThe Unlikely Story of a Convert: Mendel Diness,\u201d Disciples History, by Lester McAllister\n\u201cThe Diness Discovery,\u201d by Piney Kesting.

        "raw_content": "A NEW commodity spawns a lucrative, fast-growing industry, prompting antitrust regulators to step in to restrain those who control its flow. A century ago, the resource in question was oil. Now similar concerns are being raised by the giants that deal in data, the oil of the digital era. These titans\u2014Alphabet (Google\u2019s parent company), Amazon, Apple, Facebook and Microsoft\u2014look unstoppable. They are the five most valuable listed firms in the world. Their profits are surging: they collectively racked up over $25bn in net profit in the first quarter of 2017. Amazon captures half of all dollars spent online in America. Google and Facebook accounted for almost all the revenue growth in digital advertising in America last year. Such dominance has prompted calls for the tech giants to be broken up, as Standard Oil was in the early 20th century. This newspaper has argued against such drastic action in the past. Size alone is not a crime.\nPathways for Peace : Inclusive Approaches to Preventing Violent Conflicts\nWorld Bank/United Nations\nThe resurgence of violent conflict in recent years has caused immense human suffering, at enormous social and economic cost. Violent conflicts today have become complex and protracted, involving more non-state groups and regional and international actors, often linked to global challenges from climate change to transnational organized crime. It is increasingly recognized as an obstacle to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals by 2030. This has given impetus for policy makers at all levels \u2013 from local to global \u2013 to focus on preventing violent conflict more effectively. Grounded in a shared commitment to this agenda, Pathways for Peace: Inclusive Approaches to Preventing Violent Conflict is a joint United Nations and World Bank study that looks at how development processes can better interact with diplomacy and mediation, security and other tools to prevent conflict from becoming violent.\nPreventing Violent Conflict\nBank supports launch of certificate course on contractual dispute resolution in India\nSubmitted by Shanker Lal\tOn Tue, 03/21/2017\nPowerlines in Mumbai. Photo: Simone D. McCourtie / World Bank\nIndia is the fastest-growing major economy in the world with significant Government investments in infrastructure. According to estimates by WTO and OECD, as quoted in a report from the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime, India: Probity in Public Procurement, the estimated public procurement in India is between 20 and 30 percent of GDP.\nThis translates to Indian government agencies issuing contracts worth an estimated US$ 419 billion to US$ 628 billion each year for various aspects of infrastructure projects. Ideally, in contractual agreements no disputes would arise and both sides would benefit from the outcome. However, unexpected events occur and many contracts end in dispute. Contractual legal disputes devoid project benefits to the public as time and resources are spent in expensive arbitration and litigation. As a result, India\u2019s development goals are impacted.\nWhen progress can\u2019t wait, mediate\nPhoto by Flickr user uberof202\nIn public private partnerships (PPPs), it\u2019s easy to forget that third \u201cP,\u201d but it\u2019s this concept of a partnership that ensures the health and sustainability of the public-private relationship. Conflict can undermine the PPP relationship, or be used to strengthen it \u2013 and that\u2019s why mediation is an important option for PPPs.\nMediation is simply a facilitated negotiation. It is a very flexible format for resolving differences in international infrastructure projects, as each mediator can structure the process in the manner most appropriate to the situation. Resolution achieved by mediation is not limited to remedies provided by law, allowing for bespoke settlements that satisfy both parties.\nDoes it help to complain?\nSubmitted by Jan Mattsson\tOn Thu, 01/28/2016\nIt is a year since I blogged about my early impressions of the Inspection Panel and specifically a complaint from a Maasai community that was resettled to accommodate a geothermal plant in Kenya.\nSince then I have heard variants of the question: Do accountability mechanisms make a difference? In this case, I believe the Inspection Panel has made a positive contribution. But the ultimate test of the effectiveness of the Bank process, of which the Panel is only one part, must be the redress of any harm caused. Signs are encouraging, and we shall see.\nWe submitted our investigation report in early July. The Board meeting in October resulted in a clear direction for the future (see press release). This was followed by the Panel\u2019s debriefing of the community and other stakeholders in Kenya.\nAs we analyzed the facts it became clear the Bank had failed to bring to bear its rich experience with resettlement and the full force of its safeguard policies. This had negative repercussions for many of the project-affected people, especially the poor and vulnerable.\nIn a nutshell, the requirement to engage resettlement expertise was not met, consultations were hampered by the absence of Maa language and by sidelining the traditional Maasai authority structure, and there was no effective monitoring against a comprehensive socio-economic baseline. We also highlighted many positive aspects, including the climate-neutral generation of electricity and the investment in new infrastructure for schools and dwellings in the resettlement area.\nNegotiations are Political Acts; Peace is a Mind-Set\nSubmitted by Henriette von Kaltenborn-Stachau\tOn Tue, 02/26/2008\nIn a few weeks the Arab League will meet. The 2002 Arab Peace Initiative will again be placed on its agenda with the hope to push for the quest of a two-state solution.",

        "raw_content": "Lord John series\nSteelhands\nJaida Jones & Danielle Bennett\nAs Meat Loves Salt\nLord of the White Hell\nJoanna Sinisalo\nM.J. Engh\nThe Gay Fiction Booklist That Doesn't Suck\n** Hey guys! **\nIt's been a good run (close to ten years now, whoa), but my interest in keeping the booklist up to date has waned over the past few years, and rather than pretending like I'll get back to it Any Day Now, I think it's time to call it to a close. Partly it's because that I'm not reading as much, most of my time going into my leatherworking business, and partly because I'm finding it increasingly difficult to write fairly about the books I read.\nI started this site when I was a voraciously-reading undergrad who had inexplicably just realized that there were real, existing books that had both fantasy settings and queer protagonists. That I could actually have both, rather than having to choose between straight fantasy and gay boring shit bildungsromans. There weren't many, but they were out there, and by god I was going to find them.\nTen years later, the publishing scene is rather dramatically different. Queer protagonists are still less prevalent than straight ones, of course, but they are no longer the Outliers Who Should Not Be Counted that they once were, nor do publishers and back-cover summaries try so hard to hide it when they are. YA lit in particular has witnessed a boom in openly gay characters, possibly due to the many fanfic writers who are turning their energy to writing original fiction in the YA genre. More people are talking about gay fiction, and sites like tumblr make it incredibly easy to signal-boost book recs (and anti-recs), and get them seen by massive numbers of the people who will want to read them. (There was no tumblr when I started the booklist.) Gay fiction is coming out of its queer little ghetto and into the mainstream, making sites like mine less necessary than they once were.\nI'll still write about the books I read -- you couldn't stop me if you tried -- but I'll be archiving them over at my books blog instead. Moreover, they're not exactly book reviews, as in \"summarize plot, give star rating, help you decide whether this is something you want to read,\" it tends to be more \"Gabriel rambles about something in this book on which he had Opinions,\" which can range from stylistic devices to sexual politics, as viewed through a queer lens.\nLastly, there turned out to be a lot of books that I'd read and rambled about on my blog, but never got around to posting on the booklist. It's a bit late to go back and write proper reviews for all of them, but I rounded them up and gave them an entry on here that links back to the relevant blog entry. (See left sidebar.)\nSo I won't be adding anything more to the booklist, but this site will stay up for as long as I own the webspace. My thanks goes out to everyone who's read me over the years and written in with recs and opinions of their own. May you read and enjoy many more gay books to come. :)\nThe sad thing about gay fiction is that too many readers (and reviewers) hold it to lower standards than they would other books. They're so grateful just to find a book with gay characters that they'll give it a free pass and recommend it even if it's quantifiably terrible.\nI DO NO SUCH THING.\nThere is a surprising amount of gay fiction out there, some of it wretched and some of it transcendent, but it tends to slip by under the radar as a survival mechanism. So, with the help of my good friend the Internet, the recommendations of strangers and friends, and countless hours spent trawling countless used bookstores, I have put together a list of gay fiction -- primarily science fiction and fantasy -- that is, I hope, approaching comprehensive. Moreover, I've read everything on it and can offer a plot summary plus my own admittedly biased opinion on its relative worth. Arm yourselves with this list, my friends, and happy hunting!\nThese stars represent how much I enjoyed it, not an objective measure of how good it was:\n- Phenomenal. I'd buy it (in hardcover) and then buy copies for all my friends.\n- Not perfect, but I enjoyed it a lot.\n- Aight.\n- Some redeeming qualities, but gay or not, I'd give it a miss.\n- I'd rather watch my screensaver. Which is a clock.\n- Crap beyond crap. Stabbing yourself in the eye would be more fun. Only two books have earned this rating so far.\nIn addition to basic standards of plot, characterization, and good writing, ratings are likely to be influenced by...\nThings I dig: snark, realistic relationships, unreliable narrators, taking a cliche and turning it on its head, gay people being awesome (almost better than gay people being gay), monsters as love interests, love interests who are characters in their own right, incarceration, unique dialects, good people making terrible mistakes, and anything that hasn't been done before.\nTotal turn-offs: cliches of all varieties, characters who are Too Stupid To Live\u2122, writers who neglect character development to focus on world-building, love interests who are pastede on yay!, writers who don't treat gay relationships with the same consideration that they would straight ones, drug use (I told you this was arbitrary), deus ex machina for author's darlings, binary distinctions of good and evil, and poignant, beautifully written bildungsromans of singular literary craftsmanship, which is code for BORING AND DEPRESSING WITH NO ACTUAL FUCKING PLOT.\ntl;dr version: I'm not into artsy and avant-garde storytelling. I privilege character over all else, and I will forgive a book of just about any other sin (middling plot, Seriously Problematic Bullshit) if it has characters who get their hooks in me. If that's what you like too, then full speed ahead -- if you know that it's not, then take my reviews with a grain of salt.\nAnthony, Mark\nThe Last Rune Series\nMaybe it deserves more than two stars, because I didn't have any trouble finishing it, but I also don't have any desire to buy it or read the rest of the series. It starts with two characters from our world, a doctor named Grace and a bartender named Travis, getting sucked into a magical and medieval world on the verge of collapse. The plot was intriguing and kept me going and the writing style is engaging enough, but I didn't care about any of the characters. A different review described Grace as a \"boring ice queen\" and I'm inclined to agree. Travis is more sympathetic, but not much more interesting. There's a martial cult that is beyond Spartan in the way they spurn women, which got my hopes up, but apparently the homosexuality is not to be realized until later volumes.\nBailey, Robin Wayne\nI think perhaps I went into this with expectations that were too high, because while it was a good book, I remember being disappointed that it wasn't better. Set in a fantasy version of archaic Greece, the main character is Innowen, who is a crippled woodcutter's son until a powerful witch gives him back the use of his legs, under the condition that he dance in her tribute every night. The catch, that neither of them reckoned on: anyone who watches him dance will succumb to their innermost desires, often with horrific consequences. The premise was very interesting, but something about Bailey's writing style kept me from ever empathizing with the characters much.\nOne thing to get out of the way before I begin: this book is fucking huge. That said, it was never a chore to read despite the length, although it was often a chore to figure out what the heck was going on. In Imajica there are five planes of existence, five worlds if you will, of which ours is one. Some people are endeavoring to unite them so that people can travel freely between them, and some are attempting to stop that unification at all costs. It features three protagonists who are all intimately tied to the original unification efforts, two of them unaware of it. The most interesting by far is Pie Oh Pah, a powerful, hermaphroditic creature called a mystif. Technically the romance is man-hermaphrodite and not man-man, but Pie strikes me as an attempt to slip homosexuality into mainstream fiction, because in spite of gender-neutral pronouns it still comes off as very male.\nOn my blog: oooh, Mingan.\n(Ironside is the third book in a series, following Tithe and Valiant. Valiant was my favorite of the three, but this was the only one gay enough to make the list.)\nThe third installment in Holly Black's Tales of Faerie, an urban fantasy series aimed at young adults. The main characters are Kaye, the changeling protagonist from the first book, now on an impossible quest for True Love, and her human friend Cornelius, who's holding a grudge against fairies in general from his previous misadventures and staunchly sticking by Kaye, being helpful and being gay. I hadn't been expecting a gay subplot when I started this series, so it was a pleasant surprise when Cornelius got center stage for romantic developments in Ironside.\nAs a genre, I quite like urban fantasy, but it's been years and years since I've read any young adult fiction and I found the writing style extremely jarring. It feels as though the author speeds through plot developments too quickly, relationships and characters don't get properly fleshed out, and the prose and dialogue are less sophisticated than their adult fantasy counterparts. I enjoyed it anyway, but the young adult warning is a major caveat I'd make before recommending it to anybody.\nHorror's not my genre, and it's possible that if I liked horror more I would have given this a higher rating. Our bold young heroes are Trevor and Zach--Trevor is a cartoonist, haunted by his father's murder-suicide, that killed his mother and brother but skipped him; Zach is a slutty computer hacker on the run from the FBI. They both get drawn back to the house where Trevor's father committed the murders, which has taken on a frightening life of its own in the mean time. Brite's writing style is very engaging and her haunted house is imaginative and genuinely scary; my issues with the book are Zach's continuous and varied use of illegal drugs, and the lack of any deeper emotions than lust between the two boys when she seems to insist that there is. Show me, darling, don't tell me. And I was rather disgusted by her idea of a happy ending.\nWhen I read Drawing Blood, I really really wanted to like Poppy Z. Brite -- she's a great writer, her prose is sharp and tidy, her dialogue is clever, both funny and realistic, and her protagonists are gay. Unfortunately her idea of a good time seems to be hard drugs and necrophilia, which, for all my vices, are not mine. I had Liquor and its sequel, Prime, on my shelf for well over a year before I finally gave them a chance -- and wound up enjoying them immensely. The protagonists are Mike Rickey and his long-term boyfriend/best-friend Gary \"G-man\" Stubbs, a pair of working class cooks in New Orleans. After getting (somewhat unfairly) fired from his last job, Rickey hits on the simple -- yet clever and infinitely flexible -- idea of starting their own restaurant, one in which every dish is cooked with some sort of liquor. Thus begins their long and arduous journey from concept to opening night, helped along the way by a colorful, memorable supporting cast.\nRickey and G-man are older than the protagonists in Drawing Blood and miles more mature. They don't spend the book lying around smoking weed and screwing, because frankly they have better things to be doing -- like getting their restaurant off the ground. They're also very different from the characters usually found in gay fiction, for one, because their relationship is already long established by the beginning of the book. But in their case, the \"best friends\" dynamic overrides the \"boyfriends\" dynamic and it's comfortable instead of dull. Secondly, they're gay without hitting any of the stereotypes about fashion sense or effeminacy, nor are they involved with the gay subculture at all (more interested in hanging out with other cooks than with other gays). They've developed their own patterns for behavior and interaction without much outside influence, a product of their love of food first, environment second, with sexuality a distant third. Which is not to say that characters who act queer are bad, but this is different and I always dig that.\nRevisiting the world of Rickey and G-man -- Liquor is up and running, popular and successful despite the scandal from the end of the last book. So successful that Rickey gets invited to be a consultant to revive a flagging restaurant in Dallas; the money is great, the only catch is that the current head chef is an older man that he has History with. See above: if you liked Liquor, you'll like Prime.\nThe continuing adventures of Rickey and G-man. A bit more scuffed up but considerably richer after his misadventures in Texas, Rickey agrees to hire Milford Goodman -- an ex-con who was one of New Orleans's hottest up-and-coming chefs before being convicted of brutally murdering his employer, now exonerated after ten years of incarceration. Meanwhile some of the city's skeeziest elites have come to Liquor wanting Rickey's help renovating the restaurant for a steamboat casino, a venture that seems off from the start and only gets worse. It's the characters I like and it's still fun, but Soul Kitchen feels like it's retreading much of the same ground as the previous two books, revisiting a formula that you can only reuse so many times.\nFor all that Liquor features one of the best established relationships I've seen in fiction, it of course begs the question, But HOW did they get there? The long-awaited prequel, The Value of X, is the answer, though at novella-length it doesn't quite deliver what I'd hoped it would. It goes back to their high school days and explores a little bit more of their childhood, but I would have liked to see more their relationship (and the associated sexual tension) before they get together. I also would have liked more of their interactions with their families, particularly since G-man's family is so strongly Catholic. It doesn't help that the only real plot/mystery to be resolved in this book is whether Rickey and G-man can survive being apart for Rickey's time at school in NY, and anybody who's read the later books knows the answer to that.\nI found Liquor and Prime sitting on the shelf together at a Half-Price Books in Houston, years ago, but I've never seen them anywhere else since then. Soul Kitchen and The Value of X I had to get Borders to order for me; they're all trade paperback, except The Value of X which is hardcover only. Not sure if it was worth the price, but I enjoyed reading it and, hey, it happened to be autographed. Since then, Value of X and another novella called D*U*C*K (which I haven't managed to get my hands on yet) have been reprinted together in a trade paperback volume called Second Line.\nIs great! See my incredibly uninformative \"review\" of it here.\nA delightful turnabout on the overdone lesbian utopia books. Ethan (from the planet Athos, which is populated entirely by men) is an obstetrician sent all-unwilling on a mission to procure ovarian tissue cultures to replace the ones from the original colonists, which have begun to fail -- a mission that will take him into contact with -- GASP -- women!! The back-cover summary hints at a relationship between Ethan and the hot female mercenary who takes it upon herself to keep him from getting killed -- this is a lie. She doesn't convert him (she's not even interested in him) although his abject terror that she might is hilarious. (She also happens to be a character who made a cameo in one of Bujold's Vorkosigan books, Young Miles.) A short, fast, very fun read; but keep in mind that it was published a while back, so even though Ethan IS gay he never really gets to BE gay.\nBull, Emma\nThe sub-heading on Bone Dance calls it a \"fantasy for technophiles,\" a title that becomes quite apt as you read the book. I'd read Bull's Finder before this, and the milieu feels much the same--a seemingly anarchic society that is dangerous but not without rules, where Bull's young, pragmatic protagonists manage to carve out a niche. But where Finder was urban fantasy, Bone Dance is sci-fi with a touch of the supernatural. It's set in an unspecified city presumably somewhere in the U.S. in the wake of an apocalyptic (though never fully clarified) war with South America. Our protagonist is Sparrow--adept techie, avid collector of pre-war media, and of completely ambiguous gender. A job gone wrong leads to unwanted attention from some very dangerous people, ominous blackouts in which Sparrow loses days at a time, and persistant rumors about the involvement of the Horsemen, the terrifying, mysterious soldiers who were responsible for turning the tide of the war.\nAnd at the risk of being as cryptic as the back cover of the book, I'm going to leave it at that. Bull does a masterful job throwing the reader in at the deep end and tossing enough lines to keep you afloat. By the middle of the book you'll know exactly what's going on and it will be an epiphany--I enjoyed the revelation immensely, and I wouldn't want to spoil that for other people. Unfortunately, the book seems to run out of steam in the last third. I had the impression that I was sympathizing with the wrong characters, that I found the author's preferred ones somewhat dull and had taken a liking to the ones that she was indifferent to. And ironically, I think the plot detracted from the book by moving the overall focus from Sparrow's personal struggle to an external conflict that felt almost artificial. All in all it's worth a read, although I liked Finder and War of the Oaks better.\nIn a vast, space-age future, one powerful and ambitious man has all but succeeded in creating an empire that spans the galaxy and controls every inhabited planet. Considered a visionary by some and reviled as a bloodthirsty despot by others, he has everything he could possibly want -- except for a Songbird. Gifted from birth and trained by the best, Songbirds are rare and talented singers who can sing to people's very emotions. After many years of searching, they finally find Ansset, a withdrawn, damaged young boy with a once-in-a-lifetime gift.\nSo that's the situation, but unfortunately I didn't like any of the characters much. As a child Ansset is a non-entity, who can sing and manipulate the emotions of others perfectly but is an empty shell himself. He has no sympathy for the other people around him, minor characters whose struggles feel more realistic than Ansset's own, and as a result I had no sympathy for him.\nFurthermore, Orson Scott Card has gotten a reputation in gay-fiction circles for being homophobic, writing gay issues poorly, and having a tendency to equate homosexuality with pedophilia. (Though for a good time, read Card's own rant about J.K. Rowling's failure to admit to Dumbledore's sexuality in canon, only confirming it after the fact. He's like, when I have gay characters, by God, I man-up and say so!) And so he does, and in Songbird there are a handful of them, several portrayed quite sympathetically. Unfortunately he chooses to go the Lackey and Brokeback route -- gay characters must lose their lovers, suffer, and die. The highly-charged relationship between Ansset and the emperor is frequently assumed by other characters to have a sexual component, an implication that both characters take offense at -- but regardless of whether or not the relationship is sexual, the atmosphere is there and it made me uncomfortable, thanks a lot, Card. There are also a disproportionate number of adult men who, it's implied, would really like to fuck pre-pubescent Ansset if given half a chance. The best character in the book is a fun, quirky bisexual man who falls in love with him as an adult, but that ends... poorly. On the whole, this book has little to recommend itself.\nKushiel Series\nThe rest: Kushiel's Chosen, Kushiel's Avatar are and Kushiel's Scion is not gay enough to make the cut.\nI'm not entirely sure this belongs on a gay booklist, but I know a lot of people would be pointing it out to me if I left it off. Certainly, bisexuality is the norm in their society and our bold heroine is totally weak in the knees for the evil lady, but her love interest is male -- which strikes me as giving a nod to the existence of homo- and bisexuality without necessarily being a gay book. That said, this is nevertheless an amazing work of fiction. It's an impressive author who can pull off a writing style that feels consistently, authentically non-modern, and Carey does it in spades. Her series is set in a fantasy version of Europe (France, specifically), overflowing with intrigue and beautiful people. The protagonist is Phedre, a courtesan and dyed-in-the-wool masochist. Her sexuality seems to get trotted out as the feature that makes these books unique, but it's really not. Once the groundwork has been laid and the plot gets rolling, it never stops. I'd been resisting reading it for a long time, but now I wholeheartedly recommend it.\nUnfortunately, the series can't keep up the promise of the first book. I read perhaps 2/3 of the way through the next one, then put it down and wasn't interested enough to pick it up again. I might skip to the fourth book and give that a shot, because apparently Phedre's son is the protagonist and if he's half as bisexual as she is, it should be fun. EDIT: Scratch that, he's all about the tits and ass.\nHoly cats, I love this book so much. I am not an unbiased reviewer. But here goes: first of all, don't read the back cover, and if you do, don't believe it. You'll come away with the impression that it's about a werewolf vigilante, which -- haha, no. None of the above. Thank you for playing.\nIt's set in a small town called Santa Olivia near the Mexican border, and the story kicks off with the American military rolling in and declaring that, as part of the ongoing war with Mexico, that whole strip of territory is being declared a buffer zone, no longer part of the United States, and that anyone who chooses to remain in the town rather than evacuating is forfeiting their American citizenship. Well, being as that's home, inevitably some people choose to stay, and this is about them and their descendants.\nIn its atmosphere, it reminded me of A Handmaid's Tale and Arslan. Although it's certainly a different type of dystopia, one of benign neglect rather than active oppression, you get the same sense of powerlessness, of being trapped, of being kept in a prisoner's ignorance and isolation. The world beyond the walls may be going about its business as usual, but to the residents of Santa Olivia it might as well have ceased to exist. (And to the younger residents of the town, it never did exist.) It's one thing to write a dystopia where the abuse is overt and its effects obvious. It's something else entirely (and something far more interesting) to write a place where the oppression is more subtle, and it takes a long time before you realize how deep the ramifications run.\nThat takes care of setting, what about characters? I loved EVERYONE. There are no one-dimensional bad guys here. Even the characters who are antagonistic are rarely doing so out of malice, you can see their motivations. The locals have a complicated relationship with the soldiers occupying their town, but the soldiers are shown as individuals too -- some are nice and some are assholes -- not just a faceless mass of military. Furthermore, all of the \"good\" guys also have their full complement of flaws and idiosyncracies. They can be prickly, or possessive, or dishonest, or codependent, or have very mercenary ideas about sex, or just be an asshole most of the time. (Oh, Miguel, you're my favorite.) Nobody is perfect, but everyone elicits your sympathy.\nPlot? Kept me going from beginning to end, so. Halfway through it becomes about not-what-you-thought-it-was-about. If I told you, it would sound improbable, but it works. Has its \"WHOA SHIT!\" moments, and going in the endgame, I honestly had no idea what to expect.\nRomance? Lovely. Also, lesbian. Also, hot. Carey writes romance beautifully, exactly the way I like to read it. Their emotional arc is fully developed and we get to watch it unfold the whole way, none of this \"happening offstage\" bullshit that gay romances so often get saddled with in deference to heterosexual sensibilities. It gets the emotional build-up it deserves, and it gets the emotional payoff too -- it gets the Big Scene where the characters go out on a limb, wear their hearts on their sleeve, all that grand passion. That gets taken for granted in straight romances -- that the author is going to go there, going to show that, going to respect the relationship and give it all the emotional impact they can pour into it -- but it's seen a hell of a lot less often in gay romances. My hat goes off to you, Jacqueline Carey.\nOkay, you guys know that I frequently defend queer-writing authors when they get slapped with the dismissive \"reads like fanfiction\" accusation... so when I say that Saints Astray reads like a rock band AU fanfic, I really, really mean it. I knew that there was no way a sequel to Santa Olivia could measure up to the first (for one, Santa Olivia had a very fulfilling ending that didn't leave much need for a sequel), but I still didn't expect it to be quite so... wtf. Spoilers for the end of Santa Olivia follow.\nSo Loup and Pilar have made it out into the Brave New World that lies beyond Outpost, but everyone else is still stuck there, with their plight unknown to the rest of the world. Our bold heroines are resolved to fix that, which is why they promptly.... join up with a rock band. Seriously, this book is like a list of mediocre fanfic cliches -- established relationship with frequent cut-to-black sex scenes, pointless chapters of hanging out on vacation, obligatory rival for someone's affections, and hanging out with a rock band. (Shark: jumped.) I wouldn't say that Carey's lost touch with her characters, but they're just not doing anything interesting. The gut-wrenchingly high emotional stakes from the last book are gone, replaced with a vague idea that they're going to right injustice but no clear plan as to how. Loup's no longer torn between love and vengeance, so there's no tension in their relationship anymore. There's nothing that challenges them as characters, pushes them to their limits and makes them grow. Their brave new world feels two dimensional, not nearly as realized as the town of Outpost was. And they're hanging out with a rock band. (Your argument is invalid.)\nThe uneven quality of Carey's books leads me to think that she's an all-or-nothing kind of writer -- when she's on, she's really, REALLY on, but when she's off her game and lacking whatever afflatus produced Kushiel's Dart and Santa Olivia, she's not someone who can just grit her teeth and bang out something passable.\nClegg, Douglas\n(This is supposedly the first book in a trilogy, but so far it is the only one out)\nSo as I was reading this book I was pondering a tagline, and the phrase coming to mind was \"mostly tedious\" (which is always a bad sign, when I'm thinking about my pending review instead of the book itself), but then when I was done with it I got a little drunk and started feeling more benevolent. Working in the book's favor was that it's a very fast read. It's still mostly boring--yet another rehashing of the Arthurian legend, in the recent trend of taking the tales back to their primitive Celtic roots (Alice Borchardt's Tales of Guinevere duo comes to mind). There are pages upon pages of descriptive paragraphs that I skipped with a lazy eye, a truly ridiculous amount of detail regarding pagan mythology (which would no doubt make this book my favorite if that were my field of interest, but it's not), and a fair bit of sermonizing towards the beginning about gay people being just as good as anyone else. (Hello! Anyone reading this book is going to be gay-friendly, which means you're preaching to the choir.)\nSo if you take out the recycled plot, the tedious world-building, and the preachy theme... you're left with Mordred, who turns out to be a surprisingly well-crafted character. The sexy bits are indeed quite sexy, and the plot picks up a lot near the end and actually made me sort of wish the next book was out, although Clegg's choice for Mordred's one true love didn't sit well with me. In retrospect, I can see why summaries of the book were deliberately vague about Mordred's passion for \"a knight in Arthur's court\" instead of giving a name. I'll foist spoilers upon you when I get around to reading/reviewing the next book in the series, but for now you can read it and pass your own judgment.\nWraeththu Series\nThis is a series with a fascinating premise: in a dystopian world, humans have begun to be replaced by a viral, hermaphroditic new race called the Wraeththu that is gradually driving mankind extinct. It's a plot that has turned up in other forms in other sci-fi (usually the B-movie variety), and usually with humans rallying to fight off the intruding race and managing to save themselves. Not so in the Wraeththu books--not only are they winning, but all our protagonists are members of this viral new species.\nEnchantments of Flesh and Spirit\nI'd heard a great deal about this series before I read it, as it is somewhat of a cult classic, and thus I was greatly dismayed when the first book was... alright. Not bad, to be sure, but it seemed undeserving of the hype. The main character is Pellaz, a young human man living in rural poverty who is enticed (without much difficulty) by a traveling stranger named Calanthe into becoming a Wraeththu himself. We travel with Pellaz as he learns about the world and about what it means to be a Wraeththu, which is admittedly necessary for world-building but Pellaz was never a very strongly defined character. Even though I wanted to like it and respected the wealth of creativity that had gone into the story, Pellaz's lack of appeal made it impossible for me to connect with him.\nBewitchments of Love and Hate\nI'd delayed reading this because Enchantments had been such a disappointment, but my fear was unfounded -- as it turns out, it was Pellaz who made the first book blah and with a different narrator Ms. Constantine simply shines. Our new protagonist is Swift, the child of a Varr warlord, and one of the first generation to be born to Wraeththu parents rather than incepted from humans. Calanthe, who was intriguing in the first book, is magnetic in this one -- a captivating, carelessly vicious presence who drives a wedge through Swift's family with the enmity he incurs from Swift's mother and the desire he stirs in both father and son. I am, admittedly, very biased because I like cruel and lazy characters, but this book is still undeniably better as it is not being bogged down with world-building. Nor is it just Cal who receives more screen time in this installment -- many of the minor characters introduced in Enchantments are further developed here, their lives being woven into the tapestry of the Wraeththu world.\nFulfillments of Fate and Desire\nCalanthe was an enigmatic, mercurial mentor in the first book and an itinerant home-wreaker in the second--in the third book he's the protagonist, and fulfills all his potential from the first two. By this time Cal has discovered the hoax executed by Thiede, gone to Immanion seeking Pellaz again, and escaped in failure. He's wandering in search of something he can feel but can't even begin to define, struggling on the fringes of society to survive and maybe claw his way up again, and facing it all with the strangest mixture of snark, stubborn pride, and vicious self-loathing. Cal makes an absolutely riveting narrator--if he tossed off some good one-liners before, in Fulfillments you realize that he kept 90% of it to himself. Very, very rarely are characters this intricate and contradictory; Cal is as \"strong\" a person as they come, but he's at an utter loss and in his antipathy for inaction he ends up chasing his own tail. He tells us all the time that he wallows in self-pity, but when horrible things happen to him, there's no pity--he believes quite matter-of-factly that he deserves everything he gets and more. He's not without empathy, but he still ends up hurting a lot of people; as he puts it, \"I have conscience that stands by and lets me do terrible things so it can torment me for them later.\"\nPerhaps unsurprisingly, the weakest part of this book (and the ones that follow) is Cal's continued obsession with Pellaz. Pellaz, despite being a much less-defined character, is still the only one in Cal's heart--which I find somewhat inexplicable, since I'm not feeling the chemistry and Constantine has already created a slew of more interesting characters to replace him. Accordingly, I was not rooting for their reunion and was indifferent when it happened.\nThe [X]ments of [Y] and [Z] trilogy was originally published in the states in mass-market format by a large publishing house (Tor) so I didn't have much trouble finding them used. They have since been reprinted together in one hefty trade paperback volume simply called Wraeththu, which is sold at bookstore chains like Borders and Barnes and Nobles. Also available directly through her own Immanion Press.\nWraeththu Histories Trilogy\nA second trilogy in the same world that she went back and wrote nearly two decades later, featuring characters from the next generation of Wraeththu.\nWraiths of Will and Pleasure\nMuch like its sequel, Shades of Time and Memory, this book scatters the story across a multitude of viewpoints -- unfortunately it doesn't work as well, because there's no compelling plot tying them together, or nothing we haven't read before. Wraiths covers a large span of years from the original trilogy, showing us what other various side characters were busy doing and feeling during that time. It features Ulaume of the mysterious, desert-dwelling Kakkahaar, who has inexplicably paired up with Flick from Saltrock (a character that I had absolutely no recollection of from the first book) and adopted, somewhat by accident, a strange Wraeththu child named Lileem. We get to see the exact circumstances of Cal's ill-fated return to Saltrock after Pellaz's death, culminating in Orien's murder, which had been hearsay until now. We see the building of Immanion, some of the details surrounding Pellaz's resurrection, and the advent of the Kamagrian, Wraeththu's sister-race.\nIt was sporadically very interesting, but fell short on the whole. It renewed my dislike of Thiede, how he manipulates the hell out of everyone and always wins (that might have been intentional on Constantine's part), and my aggravation for Pellaz (which I'm fairly certain wasn't) -- could he get any more boring?? And the one alternate perspective that I was particularly keen on seeing, Seel's point of view for the mind-rape that was his relationship with Swift, ended up being completely glossed over.\nShades of Time and Memory\nGod only knows why I didn't consult my own list when guessing which book came first in the Histories Trilogy--but considering that I made it halfway through before I began to suspect that I'd skipped one, I'd venture to say that it doesn't really matter. Where the books of the first Wraeththu trilogy tended to focus on one character, filtering the story through them, Shades is a complex tapestry woven together from a multitude of viewpoints. Pellaz is the Tigron, but he's uncertain without Thiede's guidance and the triad of him and Cal and Caeru is still fraught with tension. The villain of the piece is Ponclast, erstwhile leader of the Varrs, who has struck a pact with dark forces to free him and his people from the nightmarish prison that Thiede had left them locked in. As he gathers his forces and plots the overthrow of the Gelaming, Pellaz must rally the Wraeththu tribes and find his own divine intervention to counter Ponclast's--all very interesting, but it's the characters that make this book brilliant.\nPellaz is still boring, but the brittle, self-perpetuating feud between Caeru and Cal is hypnotic. Ponclast is a captivating figure, grotesque and clever, ruthless and vulnerable--yet still laden with his own yearnings and insecurities, fiercely loyal to his people, tender and sweet with his lover, protective and fearful for their son. Moon, Pellaz's shy, eccentric nephew, and Cal's son Tyson rebel against the shadows of the older generation as they work toward a tentative romance. Moon's father, Snake, struggles with being a mutilated creature in a race that prizes perfection, and Cobweb fights to reclaim a masculine side that has been dormant for too long and take Terzian's place as the leader of a desperate people. The task of balancing so many opposing perspectives is not an easy one, but Constantine executes it flawlessly.\nGhosts of Blood and Innocence\nThe last book in the Wraeththu Histories started out promisingly enough, as it picks up with two loose threads from the last book: Darquiel, product of a union between Pellaz and Cal and Caeru (must be fun to be wraeththu), raised by strangers all unaware of his parentage but conscious of some difference in him; and Loki, who still doesn't know that Cal isn't his real father. And then... it just doesn't go anywhere interesting. The strain of having a cast as large as the Wraeththu series is starting to show, because Darquiel and Loki are just two more exceptionally beautiful beauties (how do they even judge these things anymore?) without anything to set them apart from the rest of the herd personality-wise. I put the book down and forgot to pick it up again for six months, by which point I had somewhat lost the thread of the plot. The gist of it is that our bold heroes are finally becoming aware of higher powers in their world that are vying for control of the future of wraeththu, which just leads to characters becoming overpowered like DBZ and fighting in various worlds constructed in their imaginations.\nWorse, though, is how the series seems to have lost touch with its established characters. Ponclast has been lobotomized and I'm convinced death would have been a mercy (see Terzian). Cal's kept his good looks but lost the manic, self-destructive craziness that made him so interesting; I used to cheer when he walked onstage but now he's hardly better than a paper doll. Darquiel's love interest is another barbarian warlord from the dawn of Wraeththu, but he's been declawed as much as the rest of them. On the whole, a disappointing end to a series that I enjoyed a lot.\nEach of the Wraeththu histories books has been printed in hardcover and trade paperback format by both her own England-based Immanion Press and by Tor. I've seen some of them around in Half-Price Books; my Borders had the latest one in stock and I was able to order the others, but if you don't have similar luck you should consider ordering them from Immanion directly.\nCooke, John Peyton\nAmazingly awful.\nThe plot in a nutshell: Korga is slave, programmed to be dumb and docile although not necessarily innately so, plodding along in a life of hard labor until a mysterious holocaust destroys his world and leaves him the only survivor. Marq Dyeth (pronounced \"death\") is a privileged industrial diplomat who happens to be Korga's perfect sexual object to nine decimal places (and Korga to six decimals for him). They get thrown together, and there's something about a long dead tyrant tying their fates together--but putting it like that makes it sound a lot more lucid than it actually is.\nI imagine some people will jump on my case for this, but I'd say Delany is like the James Joyce of science fiction--lyric prose, light on the plot, and frequently incoherent. Stars in My Pocket suffers from being extremely uneven, sometimes very engrossing and sometimes unreadable, and what plot there is (more like the suggestion of a plot) remains totally unresolved at the end. Ultimately, I'd give it a miss and maybe try with one of his short stories.\nThis book takes place in hugely exaggerated version of present-day America (which is rather uncannily prescient, considering it was written in 1979), where the east and west coasts have descended into Sodom and Gomorrah-esque debauchery and middle america is a fascist theocracy. The driving premise is that some people have discovered a way to transcend their physical bodies, via song, and enter a state of higher consciousness -- which the protagonist desperately wants to be able to do.\nDisch is a good writer; it started out very engaging and I was thinking to myself, \"Huh, I should really look into more stuff by him.\" By the end, however, I was sick of it and ready to just be DONE already.\nShit I do not approve of:\nHomosexuality as an outward manifestation of the character's/society's internal decay. Fuck off. I am not your metaphor for psychological dissipation. This is a narrative I am tired of hearing. (It came as no surprise whatsoever to later discover that Disch was a self-hating homosexual.)\n\"Lady or the Tiger\" endings. What, you think it's somehow more improving to leave the readers to hazard their own guesses at the ending? That it's somehow more virtuous than \"spoon-feeding\" it to them? Bullshit. Do your job and finish your damn story. If I wanted to be in charge of the ending, I'd write the whole thing myself.\nI suppose I can't speak for everyone, but to me there is no sense of closure or satisfaction when I don't know what happened. It feels like a gimmick masquerading as something thought-provoking, a cheap ploy for attention and condescending to the extreme, like an English teacher stopping me in the middle of the text and demanding that I interpret and analyze it.\nGood handling of a transgender protagonist, which is rare and interesting in fantasy. Otherwise pretty unremarkable though.\nFor a very amateurish-looking cover (with a torso on it, no less), this was a surprisingly decent book, if not a very gay one. The story kicks off with Prabir Suresh at nine, living with his family on a remote island in southeast Asia while his biologist parents study butterflies. When civil war breaks out in Indonesia, his parents wind up getting killed and Prabir and his sister get shipped off to live with their aunt in Canada. Fast-forward twenty years -- Prabir has put science behind him and works at a bank, but his sister is a biology undergrad who now wants to go on a research expedition to the very area where their parents were killed, where a number of unexplainable mutations that have been cropping up recently.\nTeranesia is, foremost, a book about ideas a la hard sci-fi, even though it never leaves earth. It's a mystery story, and the mystery is why life on these islands seem to have completely stopped obeying the laws of evolution -- a scientific question to which Egan gives an equally scientific answer. (No hand-waving it away as \"magic!\" or \"aliens!\" -- best brush up on your biology.)\nThe characters are well-sketched enough, but subordinate to the plot. Prabir is gay, which becomes a highly relevant plot point. Prabir also seems to be quietly insane, making him the most well-developed character but difficult to empathize with. He has a boyfriend, but can't muster up much enthusiasm for the scenes in which they're together, and I'm not sure if that's due to deliberate characterization (Prabir is kind of weird, recall) or an author who isn't gay having trouble \"feeling\" it.\n(Incidentally, my favorite part ended up have nothing to do with the plot or the gay, but when Egan's poking fun at post-modernists for being \"all Big Dumb Neologisms and thesaurus-driven bluster. It was like listening to two badly written computer programs trying to convince each other that they were sentient.\" Hah.)\nEngh, M.J.\nFiles, Gemma\nA Book of Tongues is set a few years after the end of the Civil War, in an alternate world version of the wild west, in which some people are \"hexslingers,\" magicians wielding power that they themselves can't always control. The nominal protagonist is a Pinkerton agent named Ed Morrow, working undercover to infiltrate the gang led by Reverend Asher Rook, former Confederate chaplain turned hexslinger, and his lover Chess Pargeter, gunslinger extraordinaire.\nIt's amazing. Chess and the Reverend are the stars of this show, and to be sure, they are not nice people -- they are the larger-than-life outlaws of the wild west, they are Bonnie and Clyde, they are Butch Cassidy's Wild Bunch, men who kill easily and frequently, with little cause and less conscience. Chess in particular is vicious, impulsive, selfish -- and as compelling a character as I've ever read. He's the product of an upbringing that never really gave him the chance to be anything else, that made him believe the only ways to live were as victim or villain, never realizing that he might be both. The Reverend Rook is harder to pin down, because there's less easy causality in how he became what he is. He doesn't hate the world and everyone in it, not the way Chess does, but that doesn't make him any kinder to it. He's legitimately Christian (or was, anyway, and still considers himself to be) and his religion is fundamental to his character, even if his interpretation of how it applies to him has taken a turn for the weird now that he's a witch and a sodomite. Files writes Rook's ambivalence to his faith masterfully, laying the groundwork long before he meets Chess or comes into his powers. He's also far more of an introvert than Chess, and the view of him from the outside, that we see from Chess' and Morrow's points of view, is almost unrecognizable as the person we see from inside his own head.\nAnd for all my objections to authors who typecast gays as villains, this is NOT an example that trope, because their regard for each other is easily the most humanizing, redemptive quality in either one of them. Chess and the Reverend have explosive chemistry. (Often and explicitly, much to the dismay of some Amazon.com reviewers who stumbled onto this book with no idea what they were in for.) What's telling, however, is that even when people were rating it two stars or less for the surprise sodomy, not a one suggested that they weren't sold on the relationship. (They were buying it, alright, even if they weren't liking it.) On the other hand, I was liking it a lot, it is scorching hot, passionate, and glorious.\nMost of Files' previous writing was in horror short fiction, and it shows; her prose is superb, excellent both for evoking mood and conveying emotion, and she has a knack for generating a sense of creeping horror. I like the dialect that her characters speak. Her use of Christian theology in her magic and world-building is extremely clever; using Old Testament imagery for writing horror is far more effective than I'd have previously thought. Less effective is the Aztec mythology she incorporates into the story; because ever since Rook nearly got executed, he's been hounded by Ixchel, the goddess of hanged men, who wants his help rebuilding her reign of blood on earth -- and I really wish he would just say no and go rob some stagecoaches with Chess.\nWhich leads us to the problems -- the book starts to lose focus in the middle, and the second half suffers immensely. The Aztec theology takes over the plot, but it's unfamiliar, not as interesting as her take on Christian theology, and gets muddled and abstract pretty quickly. Character motivation also starts to waver; it seems like nobody has any clear reason for the things they do. And I'm not sure I like where she's heading with this story, because it's looking dangerously like Rook and Chess's [obsessive, all-consuming] relationship is just going to drop off now that it's not necessary to the plot anymore. In any case, I really hope the next book proves me wrong, and there's certainly room for it to do so.\nThe sequel to A Book of Tongues, second book in the trilogy -- it's always hard to rate the middle installment of something independently of the books bracketing it, but since I haven't read the final installment yet, I shall endeavor to do so.\nRope of Thorns picks up the plot right where Book of Tongues left off, with a newly magical Chess Pargeter hell-bent on revenge and dragging poor Ed Morrow all across creation with him, while formerly dead antagonist Meacham Love has his own score to settle with Chess. They have action, Ed Morrow gets more developed as a character, and an excellent lady joins the cast. I'm still not crazy about the Ixchel plot; Rook spends the book hanging out in her implausible city not doing much, and I really wish someone would figure out a way to kill Ixchel so she would just go away. On the other hand, a number of the things I'd complained about being vague in the first book got explained better, namely the Aztec mythology and Rook's motivations. (And oh god, there's a moment in Ixchel's city that will break your heart.)\nThere's less of what I enjoyed the most about A Book of Tongues -- Chess and the Reverend being crazy about each other, all over each other -- but my worry that their relationship would drop off the map was premature. Despite spending most of the book a few hundred miles apart and having precious few scenes together (I wanted more, more, MOAR), they are still obsessive and at the center of each other's worlds, for good or ill.\nBut you know how I'm a sucker for characters? Chess Pargeter -- brutal, callous, contrary Chess Pargeter -- is shown to be that rarest of things: a character who can change. Before, I said that the writing was on the wall for tragedy because that's what happens to bad men, but that's changed too -- the tragedy now will be if Rook can't do the same.\nFlewelling, Lynn\nTraitor's Moon\nImmensely enjoyable set of books--follows Alec, an orphaned young fur trapper, after he gets picked up by a cheerfully unscrupulous man named Seregil and whisked into a dangerous life of magic and espionage. Luck in the Shadows was Flewelling's first novel and in some places it shows, but it's great fun--action and adventure, comedy and drama, and a gradual romance. My only major complaint is with the third book--on the whole, it lacks the fun and flair of the other two books, and it feels like she was having to force herself to write it.\nAfter a several-year hiatus, the Nightrunner boys are back in this fourth installment. The book kicks off with them in the city again, still doing their various intrigues but getting a little bored with the scene, until they are soon tapped for a diplomatic mission that will take them back to Seregil's homeland. Things don't go as planned, of course, and they are ambushed en route, with most of their retinue slaughtered and Alec and Seregil sold separately into slavery. (Rest at ease, they are not sent to brothels.) Cue the long struggle home!\nWhile this is better than Traitor's Moon, where they spent much of their time being angsty and doing not much, I still wouldn't put it up there with the original two. Now that they're together, the established relationship has become sort of dull, all \"tension\" provided by small, manufactured disagreements. I also feel that the book moves too fast, not slowing down to properly flesh out the world or the characters' interiorities, and with far too much telling instead of showing. Still, it has an engaging plot and the promise of an interesting sequel.\nFree of servitude and on the move again, Alec and Seregil are now saddled with a magical mute monster-baby, courtesy of the events in the previous book, and are dealing with the twin problems of figuring what the hell it is and what the hell to do with it. Meanwhile, faie from the north are en route to reclaim said monster-baby, and probably kill everyone who's learned of its existence.\nI'd rank this book above Shadows Return, but below the original trilogy -- mainly because I couldn't understand or much sympathize with Alec's attachment to his monster-baby, and that's the motivation that drives the plot. (Seregil's not too thrilled with the thing either. I really feel for him in this book.) Since it doesn't talk, it's more of a MacGuffin than a character, and I don't see why they don't just give it away to the first person willing to take it off their hands. Hopefully after this Flewelling will take the series back to its spy-fantasy roots, because she's better at writing politics than magic.\nAt my blog: on wrapping up the Nightrunner series\nThe Tamir Trilogy\n(Consists of The Bone-Doll's Twin, Hidden Warrior, The Oracle's Queen)\nDeals with a historical figure from the Nightrunner world, a queen who was disguised as a boy through her childhood to save her from the systematic assassination being carried out on women of the royal family. Tamir, called Tobin through the first two books, doesn't know that he's not really a boy which makes for some interesting issues to explore. However, the sort of gender-bending that Flewelling is playing with here is a pet issue of mine and ultimately I think she doesn't explore it deeply enough. (Namely, that the attempted suicide rate for transsexuals--which Tobin is, for lack of a better word--hovers around 50%, but he's largely unaffected by any sense of gender incongruity as he's growing up.) On the whole though it's quite good, if not as much fun as the Nightrunner series.\nI like to think of this as the gay version of Lady Chatterley's Lover. Forster was a contemporary of D.H. Laurence which means, yes, that the writing style is slightly archaic, but it is still a marvelous book and quite easy to read. The protagonist is Maurice Hall, your average upper middle class British man in every way--except that he's homosexual. This book follows Maurice as he grapples with being gay and trying to find happiness despite that. And here Forster has my undying respect and admiration, because Maurice does get his happy ending, even though that prevented the book from ever being published in Forster's lifetime. *salutes*\nIf you can't bring yourself to read it, the movie is great and sticks to the book almost verbatim. It features James Wilby, Hugh Grant, Rupert Graves, and is rated R for gay sex. Just putting that out there.\nFrancis, Manna\nMind Fuck, and other stories\nImagine a dystopic future Europe controlled by a totalitarian autocracy that ruthlessly crushes all suspected resistance. Now picture a protagonist who works in middle management for said government. That's not precisely accurate, but catches the feel for Mind Fuck quite nicely, because in any other book the \"heroes\" of this one would be the nameless, faceless bad guys. But as the author herself states, there are no good guys and bad guys here, only better guys and worse guys. The main character is Val Toreth, a \"para-investigator,\" which is a cross between a high-ranking police detective and a government-sanctioned torturer. He's also, literally, a high-functioning sociopath -- a requirement for the job. The other main character is Keir Warrick, the young CEO of a company that's about to take their ground-breaking virtual reality technology public. They're both Type-A control freaks (who turn out to be surprisingly compatible in bed) and they have a fair bit of kinky sex, but what hooked my interest in the first book turned out to be the plot: people using Warrick's VR technology are dying and it could be mechanical or it could be corporate sabotage, but Toreth is on the case and it would be an engaging read for the mystery alone.\nThe problem I initially had with the romance, briefly stated, is that we see it mostly from Toreth's perspective, and from his perspective there is none. It took half the book before I remembered that this is because Toreth is a sociopath -- something that's deceptively easy to forget while you're reading. He's not vicious by nature; he's motivated sometimes by pride and sometimes by spite, but mostly just curiosity. He has a steady job that he likes well enough, spends more time doing paperwork than torturing people, goes out for drinks with his coworkers, has hobbies that include swimming and S&M. It's very subtly done, but then suddenly you realize that all of his interactions with other people are missing some crucial element of human connection; that he just doesn't care about them the way he's supposed to, he doesn't connect to them right, and it never even occurs to him. There's something deeply, fundamentally wrong with him, that no amount of love or friendship is ever going to cure -- and my adoration for authors who can take risks like that and pull them off knows no bounds. Mind Fuck focuses mainly on the plot, but Francis explores the relationship further in the short stories that follow it, posing the very real question: what sort of genuine relationship can you have with someone who doesn't care about people? Sometimes it's funny, sometimes painful, sometimes even sweet, and altogether fascinating.\n(In related news, Susan Matthews, author of Prisoner of Conscience had better be taking fucking notes. Look sharp, lady, this is how it's done.)\nYou'll probably never find it in a bookstore, but it is in print and on Amazon, go go go!\nFreireich, Valerie J.\nSomewhere in the future, a confederation of worlds is ruled over by a small, elite group called the Electors. Electors have at their disposal bio-engineered beings called probes, whose loyalty is built-in and whose lifespans are kept deliberately short. The story kicks off with a probe named Alexander, who in the course of some very complicated political maneuverings, acts according to his conscience instead of the best interests of his Elector and is put down. The story picks up again some twenty years later--our new protagonist is August, a clone of Alexander's, continuing the political struggle that remains unresolved and trying to work out his own identity and loyalties.\nThis book was very engaging--I would even call it gripping in parts--but ultimately very frustrating because (and it sounds trite to say it) of August's love interest. He feels intense loyalty toward Alexander's Elector and fancies it to be love, but pursuing him relentlessly is a rival Elector, Lee, who also happens to have been August's designer. Lee created August to be an \"ideal companion\" for himself, and doesn't hesitate to use pre-programming to bring August round to his advances when he wasn't doing it on his own. I didn't like Lee and I found the whole thing distasteful. Meanwhile, a charming foreign diplomat named Evan Kolet that I did quite like (despite the fact that he was pronounced \"inflexibly heterosexual\" and sadly remained in that state) treats August like a human, with basic, uncomplicated respect, and never takes advantage of his sub-human status--the same of which cannot be said for anyone else in the cast. Yet even though August is supposedly starved for such affection, he hardly seems to notice. This book would have been infinitely better if Kolet had been given center stage instead of Lee, but since he wasn't--very frustrating. The best part remains the cover art.\nAt my blog: why this book drove me to unholy, incandescent rage.\nGrimsley, Jim\nKirith Kirin\nJim Grimsley isn't a fantasy writer--his usual fare is realistic fiction and stage plays--so it seems almost criminal that he should sweep in and write one of the best fantasy novels I've ever read. It tells the story of a boy named Jessex, from his childhood in a peasant farming family to becoming one of the most powerful magicians in the world and working to restore Kirith Kirin, the dethroned king, to his rightful place. Jessex is a marvelous narrator, wry and gentle and unexpectedly funny. Kirith Kirin is adorable too, even if everyone tends to treat him more like an errant schoolboy than an immortal king. The descriptive passages are atmospheric and gorgeous, and bring his marvelously vast and detailed world to life. But where Grimsley really shines is in the treatment of their relationship; this is one of the very, very few books that manages to keep it just as fascinating after consumnation as it was before. I cannot recommend it enough.\nSteal it from the library. No seriously--that, or cross your fingers for a reprint. If you try to buy it online, you'll be paying seventy dollars for a copy that someone else stole from the library. If you would rather be hopelessly optimistic and keep an eye out for it at used bookstores, be aware that it's a trade paperback so you won't find it on the mass-market shelves. UPDATE 4/2011 -- Holy homosexuality, Batman! Rare sighting in the wild. UPDATE 8/2011 -- Now available on Kindle! I can stop telling people to steal it from the library, yay.\nThe Ordinary (Yes, it is both.)\nWhen Jim Grimsley wrote Kirith Kirin a lot of people who were fans of his other works criticized it quite harshly, as they believed that writing fantasy was beneath him. And though in many ways I consider Kirith Kirin to be a perfection of the genre, it stays quite firmly in the realm of fantasy. The Ordinary, although I liked it less, is an astonishing work that transcends genre.\nIt's set in the same world as Kirith Kirin, but a millennium or so later. Kirith Kirin has long ago crossed the mountains to the afterworld although Jessex remains--a distant, almost godlike figure now known as Irion. Moreover, he has opened a portal between Aeryn, his contained, magic-ruled world, and a vast, space-age empire that looks to Aeryn as a resource to fuel its endless wars. The protagonist of the book is a woman named Jedda, a trader from the space-age society recruited as a diplomatic translator between the two civilizations. Character development though, which was the cornerstone of Kirith Kirin, gets sacrificed in favor of the setting, which is my chronic complaint with science fiction. The world-building that Grimsley does with Jedda's sci-fi society is unremarkable compared to his work with Aeryn in Kirith Kirin, but the scope of his ideas for their interaction is astounding. It's the magic-vs-technology struggle where magic is never once at the disadvantage, it's creation myth and philosophy, it's atheism in a man who has met God.\nAnd after I finished it, I wished he hadn't used the same world as Kirith Kirin, although I realize there wasn't another option. I didn't like seeing how much Jessex had changed; I missed Kirith Kirin, and his new characters--Jedda and her lover Malin, Jessex's niece--were no replacement. Grimsley's ideas are fascinating, but I didn't like seeing them applied to the world I was so attached to. This has ended up being as hard to give a numeric rating to as Fall of the Kings, because once again, it's a phenomenal book that I didn't really like.\nContinues the saga told in Kirith Kirin and The Ordinary, now even more thousands of years into the future. Malin, now known as the Great Mage, rules the space-age empire (with Jedda as her consort) and is forcibly shifting it to socialism, but they're both no more than mentions. Jessex is still kicking around, along with a handful of copies of himself that he's made. Major characters are Phineas Figg, a member of the wealthy elite until Malin's wealth-redistribution went into effect, and his ward, a strangely damaged young boy named Keely File. To escape Malin's tax reforms and metropolitan overcrowding, Figg decides to move them to property he owns out on a distant, rural planet; he doesn't anticipate it erupting into planetwide civil war as soon as he arrives. This war is brutal and Grimsley's ever-fertile imagination takes the cake for grotesque sci-fi horrors.\nI didn't like what the sequels did to the world of Kirith Kirin, even retrospectively, but as far as I was concerned the damage had been done in The Ordinary and I might as well ride it out to the end. The Last Green Tree is science fiction; there is nothing left of the sweeping fantasy that made Kirith Kirin such a pleasure. It's heavy on the world-building and the uncovering of ancient mysteries, and light on characterization. I got the feeling that I could have liked Keely if he'd had more chance to develop, but the story pulls in too many different directions and he ends up just being a function of the plot. Jessex was the only character I cared about, with glimpses of the boy he used to be shining through.\nAnd then the ending. Christ, the ending. If I come across Jim Grimsley at a sci-fi conference I'm going to give him a good shake and ask what that the hell was supposed to mean, because from where I'm sitting it looks pointless. Which is about as much as I can say without giving away unforgivable spoilers. (And I can't even work out my frustration in a good rant with a friend, because I don't know anyone else who's read it. Definitely drop me a line if you have and want to discuss it.)\nThis is more along the lines of what Grimsley usually writes, gay coming-of-age stories. Like the title suggests, it has a floating, unreal sort of atmosphere to it, dreams verging into nightmares. It's the story of an adolescent boy named Nathan and his sweet, tentative romance with the boy next door, all overshadowed by the threat of violence from Nathan's abusive father. Abuse is a frequent theme is Grimsley's mainstream books but he handles it like no author I've read before--none of it gets shown or even talked about, it's all in the silence and the deadly tension that permeates the story every time his father is present. Extreme violence at the end with a strange, deus ex machina sort of intervention, but ultimately uplifting.\nAnother gay bildungsroman, with Grimsley's same beautiful prose but a very different feel to it. This one follows Newell, small town boy from rural Alabama newly arrived in New Orleans to embrace the decadent gay subculture there. Its lows aren't as dark as Dream Boy, but consequently its highs aren't as bright either, just a slow descent into a tawdry life where sexual gratification becomes the only priority. The narrative slides around between several other characters, to give a wider view than Newell's rose-colored one, and they're interesting but just leave you feeling even worse.\nHajicek, Jesse\nThe God Eaters\nI was reluctant to read this book because I saw the cover, read the description for a different book, got them confused and thought, \"Cowboys and indians? Christ, what a gay cliche, I'll leave it till I'm starving.\" That, as you might guess from the four-star rating, was an error in judgment. The prologue suffers from some choppy storytelling and deals with one protagonist's dark past rather heavy-handedly, but it smoothes out within a chapter and the rest of the book proceeds apace.\nThe God Eaters is steampunk fantasy with a dystopic, frontier feel to it. In this world, a large variety of psychic talents crop up in the population and are either assimilated to work for the government, or done away with by other means. Our bold heroes are Kieran Trevarde, a smokin' hot badass who's still human enough to get the shit kicked out of him on a regular basis, and Ashleigh Trine, an Everyman in it somewhat over his head. They're both in trouble with the government for concealing their Talents (among other things; Kieran robs stagecoaches and kills people \"by the batch, to save time,\" while Ash has been producing anti-government propaganda) and the first third of the book involves them being quite proactively in prison. And, mea culpa, I have a terrible weakness for prison lit.\nI liked this much, much more than I expected to. Hajicek has a fantastic hand for banter, with both Kieran and Ash holding their own and delivering lines that are laugh-out-loud funny. Kieran is delightfully badass and though his angsty past nearly goes overboard with horrors, it's more than redeemed by the fact that he pities himself not at all, just takes the shit that life throws at him, dusts himself off and keeps going. Ash is a less hyperbolic character, a shy, clever intellectual, an ordinary man thrust into extraordinary circumstances, but who grows and adapts to his circumstances as he needs to. The prose waxes purple sometimes when talking about their epic love for each other, and waxes abstract at others when describing various magic stuff, but on the whole I very much recommend this book.\nFree download at the author's website, or if you want to support the author and buy a hardcopy to cuddle, print on demand.\nThe premise: in the not-too-distant future, a university space-monitoring station has discovered a mysterious object hurtling toward earth, hundreds of light-years away but closing the distance fast, and received the curt message: We're coming. The viewpoint characters: professors, policemen, porn stars, reporters, mobsters, barristas, junkies, hobos, and possibly an alien. From a veritable collage of narrators, Haldeman writes an engaging, believable world abuzz with a mix of panic and optimism over the impending first contact.\nThis was an interesting book, neither plot-driven nor character-driven; as far as the first contact plot goes, not much happens for most of the book and yet the viewpoint changes too often for readers to get particularly attached to any of the characters. It's more about how humanity on the whole would react in this situation, and how worrying about aliens doesn't preclude you from worrying about taxes and in-laws and ordinary day-to-day life. The gay angle comes in when a mobster attempts to use it as blackmail material against a closeted professor, which sort of backfires because the professor is an ex-marine and wins at life, or at least wins at blackmail. There's very little in the way of gay people being gay, but it's got gay people kicking ass, which I enjoy about equally much. Unfortunately, after that subplot is resolved the gay professor is mostly written out of it and the book loses steam. Contact, when it happens, doesn't live up to the hype and I found the ending terribly trite and anticlimactic.\nHale, Ginn\nWicked Gentlemen\nThe premise: in an alternate, pseudo-Victorian England, a deal was struck several hundred years before that allowed a handful of fallen angels (re: devils) to return to earth and be given a second chance at salvation if they can live out their lives virtuously. However, human nature being what it is, there's an understandable prejudice against the descendents of these demons (called the Prodigal) and they have become a righteously despised underclass, relegated to an underground ghetto called Hells Below. Dramatis personae: Capt. William Harper, an investigator for the Inquisition, and Belimai Sykes, a Prodigal who's pretty damned fallen even by Prodigal standards. Belimai is hired to help with a kidnapping investigation, and the two of them fall into bed pretty easily, though it takes far longer for them to learn to trust each other.\nApart from a few angsty things that I felt the characters ought to GTFOver already, my only real problem with this book is that it's way too short. The two leads have enormous potential for development, the framework of their personalities is solid and intriguing, and I got the impression that the unsatisfying lack of character development was a function of the book's length, not any lack of talent on the author's part. The relationship too progresses realistically, but it progresses mostly offstage. If there were an additional fifty pages of random interaction between Belimai and Harper, I'd have no complaints.\nOn my blog: for the yaoi crowd, but not too shabby for that\nHarper, Steven\nDreamers: A Novel of the Silent Empire\nThe first of a series, evidently, and though the story kept me quite interested as I was reading it, I felt no need to buy it or seek out the sequels. The premise is that there is a plane of consciousness called The Dream, which affects all sentient minds even though only a handful of psychics called the Silent can voluntarily reach it. Recently there have been ominous disturbances in the Dream that are killing Silents and subconsciously instigating non-Silents to murder and suicide, along with rumors of a terribly powerful Silent who can control the minds of others. Kendi is a Silent who has been dispatched to find this alleged Silent; Sejal is the terribly powerful Silent in question. Kendi is gay and in a boring established relationship; Sejal, though he makes his living turning tricks, seems wholly indifferent to sex of any sort. Sejal is the much more interesting of the two, but the rest of the series looks like it follows Kendi.\nHerendeen, Ann\nThe other day I was reading a book by Georgette Heyer and I thought, \"Man, I love Regency fiction. I only wish I could find gay Regency fiction.\" So when I stumbled across Phyllida and the Brotherhood of Philander, which seemed to have drawn favorable reviews, I went in with moderately high hopes -- which were quickly dashed.\nThe plot: Andrew Carrington, hot and hot-for-men, decides that it's time for him to do right by his family and marry and settle down as a man of his age ought to. (So far so good; men did.) On a friend's recommendation, he proposes to the poor-but-genteel Phyllida, and surprises both of them when he finds himself more aroused by female charms than he'd thought. Also fine -- bisexuals exist, and being interested in Phyllida doesn't make Andrew any less interested in men. Rumor has it there's even another guy who comes in later to complete their menage-a-trois, BUT I never made it to that point because this book is terrible and I couldn't bring myself to keep reading it when there are so many other books in my queue.\nThe problems: Myriad -- the most glaring of which is that the characters are poorly-disguised versions of the protagonists from Heyer's Sylvester, the honorable-but-off-puttingly-arrogant nobleman and the aspiring authoress, but with none of the charm or humanity of the originals. (Herendeen also steals a subplot practically verbatim.) The plot events are a series of well-worn cliches, while the dialogue and prose read like bad fanfiction. The characters behave erratically, their words and actions frequently at odds with their stated intentions/characterization, and often incongruously with the norms and values of the Regency period. Give it a miss, unless romance novels are your favored genre and you don't care if they suck. (Longer and less polite critique of this book on my blog.)\nVery tedious.\nThe Fire's Stone\nThis was one of her earlier novels and the pacing reflects that a little, but every time I reread it I'm impressed anew at how masterful her grasp of characters and relationships already was. It features a trio of characters, all of whom are flawed when you first meet them, who need to grow and change and then actually do. Darvish, a happily slutty, alcoholic prince; Chandra, a prissy princess and exceedingly powerful wizard (and hoo boy does she know it); and Aaron, an foreign thief in exile who is Angsty McAngst. But then they all get thrown together on a quest For Great Justice and none of them are allowed to stay that way. If I had to pick my favorite Tanya Huff book, I think this would be it.\nUnless you happen to find the first edition at a used bookstore (which isn't all that unusual), you ought to look for it under the title Of Darkness, Light, and Fire, the reprint where it was packaged together with her other early book Gate of Darkness, Circle of Light.\nThe \"Smoke and\" series\n(Consists of Smoke and Shadows, Smoke and Mirrors, Smoke and Ashes)\nArguably a sequel, this features a minor character from her earlier Blood series, the street kid Tony, a former hustler who has now cleaned up his act and works as a production assistant for a low-budget TV show about vampire detectives. The plots are crazy, but suspend your disbelief and run with it -- Tony is endlessly entertaining in his attempts to juggle saving the world, finding a boyfriend, and not getting fired. Huff's dialogue is as sharp and funny as ever, and there's plenty of gay to go around. (Including a threesome -- to save the world!!)\nThe Quarters Series\nAll set in the same fantasy world, with three different sets of characters. In this world, there are elemental spirits called the kigh, who can be \"sung\" and controlled by bards with an affinity for one or more of the four elements. Bisexuality is more or less standard with most characters being \"cheerfully indiscriminate,\" to use Huff's own words.\nSing the Four Quarters\nAnnice is one of the rare bards who can sing all four elements. Her lover is a woman, but a one-night stand while she's out journeying on bard duties leaves her knocked up and subsequently obliged to help when the man gets framed for treason and sentenced to death. This was the first Tanya Huff book I read, and I liked it enough to keep reading the series but I've never felt the need to reread it. Annice is, sadly, somewhat boring compared to her later characters.\nThis pair of books follows a sister-brother duo, Vree and Bannon, who have been raised by the Imperial army and trained as expert assassins. An assignment gone awry leaves them with both minds stuck in Vree's body, while their intended target, a man named Gyhard, runs off in Bannon's. The incest overtones run heavy, but Huff is making a point rather than trying to titillate. The primary romantic subplot is heterosexual, but there are plenty of side characters in gay relationships and Gyhard's psycho ex-boyfriend is the main antagonist. I think these books are Huff at her finest -- fast-paced, both funny and dramatic, and packed with interesting, likable characters.\nIn my opinion, the weakest of the Quarters series. Benedikt is a bard who can sing water, very powerfully, but only water which is rather unusual and serves to alienate him from most of the other bards. It doesn't help his cause that he's surly and defensive about it. He volunteers to go on a sailing mission that will take them far beyond charted waters, and ends up shipwrecked in a distant country torn by two rulers vying for the throne. Both immediately see the potential uses for him, but their keen interest in him puts him in a lot of danger. Benedikt's eventual love interest is male, but it is so absent from the plot as to be non-existant. It's Tanya Huff and she's always fun, but Benedikt is a prickly character and doesn't generate much audience sympathy.\nJones, Jaida (and Danielle Bennett, I'm sorry I don't know who to list first)\n\"So there are these giant metal dragons,\" my friend began, right before I started snickering because I thought she couldn't be serious. Which I wouldn't mention except that the dedication of the book also says, \"To ___, for not laughing when I said 'metal dragons.'\" These ladies have a sense of humor about their premise (and about everything else, really) and this book is gem.\nThere are four viewpoint characters in Havemercy who are involved in two mostly-independent storylines: an upper-class magician named Roystan (1) who sort of maybe had really diplomatically incorrect sex and gets exiled to the countryside to ponder his actions for the rest of forever, where he meets Hal (2) a rural tutor who's not as dumb as he looks and would really rather be reading in a tree than talking to people. Meanwhile, one of the metal dragon pilots named Rook (3) who is sort of the Alpha Asshole of a squadron of assholes has made a diplomatic blunder of his own, but since he's not as easily exiled as (1), the whole insular, testosterone-laden cadre of them gets slapped with \"sensitivity training\" in the form of a young university professor named Thom (4), who has been given a great opportunity that he's going to appreciate in the distant future, but sure as hell doesn't right now. The stories wind their separate ways, until a crisis among the mages brings their paths together.\nI think the characters are the strongest part of this book -- absolutely lovely, well-drawn and well-reasoned in their actions, both entertaining and sympathetic. The world-building for the city is a little weak, but makes up for it in other areas such as the dragon corps and their system of magic.\nSo ever since Havemercy when a character was mentioned as being \"an extremely useful little inbred lunatic\" I was like, HIM. HE WILL BE MY FAVORITE CHARACTER. And here he is, enter Caius Greylace as one of the protagonists in Shadow Magic. That said, he's even more fantastic than I expected him to be and I loved this book SO MUCH.\nThe structure of this book is the same as the last: four viewpoint characters, two interconnecting stories. On the heels of Volstov's military victory against the Kehan comes the inevitable diplomatic wrangling where they try to make it stick. For reasons that are not immediately apparent, two of the participants are tiny crazy person Caius Greylace (1) -- who's insane but not stupid, and astutely wondering why anybody would choose his notoriously crazy self for this mission -- and grumpy bastard Alcibiades (2), who made a cameo in Havemercy as the guy who told Royston and Hal to get a room. Caius, whose crazy power is being always happy, decides immediately that he and Alcibiades are going to become bestest friends, much to Alcibiades' everlasting chagrin.\nThe other section caused me some distress, because in this book it becomes apparent that Kehan = Japan. That bothered me much less after I stopped trying to process it as a fantasy world that was strongly eastern-flavored and just said, Okay, Kehan = feudal Japan. Ms. Jones did her thesis in Asian Studies, she knows what she's talking about, and I don't mind her portrayal of Japanese culture, but that's what it is. Mamoru (3) is a Kehan prince, younger brother of the new emperor, terribly sweet and without a political bone in his body. It's up to his loyal bodyguard Kouje (4) -- who apparently read the memo that \"yojimbo\" is Japanese for \"rent-a-seme\" -- to see to it that Mamoru survives. I prefer the sections with Caius and Alcibiades, just because Caius is a wholly unique character and endlessly entertaining, but this whole book is great fun and one of my new all-time favorites.\n[There is actually a third book that belongs here, Dragon Soul, that I found pretty forgettable and didn't get around to writing about]\nAt my blog: diggin' it again\nFunny, that this should be one of my top picks when I didn't even really like it until I was quite a ways in, at which point I was rather charmed by it, and by the time I finished I was in love with it. Subtitled \"A Melodrama of Manners\", Swordspoint has a very different atmosphere than most fantasy. It's set in a pseudo-18th century instead of pseudo-medieval period, in a city where nobles can hire swordsmen to settle their quarrels in proxy. (But god forbid that formalities should fail to be observed!) The protagonists are Alec, a snarky, aggressively insulting university student and his lover, Richard St Vier, the most brilliant swordsman in recent history. Alec may be a certifiably crazy, or he may just be antisocial, but either way he's incredibly entertaining. St Vier makes a nice foil to him, more subdued but charming in his own right, and their contretemps are a pleasure to read. Kushner's dialogue is brilliant, clever and dryly hilarious.\n(With Delia Sherman)\nI don't quite know what to make of this book. It's set in the same city as Swordspoint, but it's not exactly a sequel; all of the characters from the original are dead, either legends or ghosts. The new protagonists are Basil St Cloud, a professor of history at the university, and Theron Campion, a young nobleman who becomes his lover. Basil gets involved in an academic duel, so to speak, with another professor, and his research takes him deep into the mysteries of a magic that has been all but forgotten. And that's the plot, but that really doesn't cover it; the plot just serves to keep the characters moving around, what keeps the story going is the prose. It seems to carry you, almost dreamlike, through the book as it keeps getting stranger and stranger, and when it throws cold water on your face with the ending, you're left shaking your head for days afterward. Or I was, anyway. Like I said, I don't know what to think of it--it's powerfully written and shook me up something good, but it didn't leave me feeling as though I'd liked it much.\nFinally, the sequel to Swordspoint that we were all hoping for, set only a decade or so later. Alec has come into his inheritance, although he's no less crazy than before, and the protagonist is his niece Katharine whom he's trying to make into a swordswoman for the novelty of it. Katharine is thoroughly lovable, and refreshingly different from most swashbuckling fantasy heroines. She has a very different outlook on life than any of the previous characters, shaping the book with her energetic, youthful optimism. Yet the tone is sadder than Swordspoint, because those were days when Alec and Richard were at their peak, and they miss it with a longing that's palpable. The ending, though, is absolutely inspired--of the three, I'd recommend saving this book for last so that you're left with this happy ending instead of the mindjob that is Fall of the Kings.\nLast Herald-Mage series\n(Consists of Magic's Pawn, Magic's Promise, Magic's Price)\nThis is probably the most well-known gay fantasy in existence, but it is far from being the best. Vanyel, eldest son of a minor provincial lord, would rather wear pretty clothes and become a bard than swordfight or inherit the estate; when he gets sent to the big city he finds out that there are other boys like him and oh yeah eventually he becomes a crazy-powerful herald mage. Plot issues notwithstanding, homosexuality is treated in an unrealistic, cliche-ridden manner -- essentially, this is a book for the yaoi crowd. Relationships go from nonexistant to married-couple-level stability overnight, Vanyel spends most of his life being lonely instead of being gay, and the ending is crap.\nYes, it ends tragically--I just spoiled it for you. And that is something that raises my hackles, because a whole lot of gay media ends in tragedy and I think it sends a very negative message. (Also, I didn't spoil it much since he sees his own death as early as book one.) But on the flip side, the books are quite fun when they're not trying to be angsty or preachy, which is unfortunately somewhat a lot; I bought them (used) and have reread them a couple times.\nClassic, groundbreaking sci-fi generally doesn't agree with me -- perhaps because by the time I usually come along, the general concept has passed into common use and subsequent authors have better explored the character-oriented minutiae -- but this concept hasn't been done better, and this classic really, really worked for me. It is a fantastically realized world with equally well-drawn characters, and I recommend it without reservation. (Note: I came to this after attempting to read the Earthsea Quartet, in which the Epic writing style almost put me off LeGuin forever. If you had a similar experience, or even if you didn't, it's worth noting that this book is very different.)\nGenly Ai is an ambassador for the intergalactic council interested in bringing the remote planet of Winter (so they've dubbed it, on account of it being really fucking cold) into the fold. Local politics, meanwhile, aren't sure what to make of this guy who claims to have come from space, and all the kings on Winter are sort of inbred and paranoid anyway. He winds up falling in with a character named Estraven, who is canny and awesome and in political disgrace for different reasons, and whom Genly doesn't trust at all but I wish he would. (More on him at the end) Fair warning, this book makes the gaylist for being gender-bending, but as much as I was rooting for a relationship between Genly and Estraven, they never make it beyond friendship. Not surprising, considering the time (1969) and target audience (sci-fi dudes not receptive to The Gay) when this was written.\nIf you've heard about Left Hand of Darkness from other sources, it's probably because they've said that the humans who live on Winter are hermaphroditic -- which is true, and very interesting, but not nearly the sum total of the book. Here, LeGuin does world-building exactly the way I like to read it: she takes a premise (hermaphroditic humans that assume a sex only when they're in heat) and says, Okay, so what? How does that affect their view on sexuality? There is no male or female gender to treated as second-class, and intercourse is by definition between equals. And while changes to sexual mores are a given, what about family structures? Succession? Religion? What about people like Genly who are locked to only one gender? (What perverts!) We get it from two very different viewpoints: Genly, who gives us an outsider's, almost a tourist's look at the society, and Estraven, who lives it from the inside.\n(An aside about Estraven: He is my new gold standard. I am so goddamned sick of male characters, regardless of their sexual orientation, who are willing to act like goddamn dumbasses when someone hot of their target gender bats their eyelashes. Seriously, how smart does a character need to be to say, \"Yes, you're quite hot, but I can tell when people are blatantly trying to manipulate me, so how about, uhm -- HELL NO?\" Estraven can tell someone hot-and-manipulative to fuck off while he is in heat. SIR, I SALUTE YOU!)\nLowachee, Karen\nThis is an absolutely superb book; it's almost impossible to believe that it's her first. Warchild tells the story of Jos, initially kidnapped as a child from his parents' freight ship and kept by a creepy, charismatic space pirate with ambiguous intentions for him. He nearly dies attempting to escape and is picked up again, this time by aliens that his own race is at war with. Jos is forced to reconsider things he took for granted, and choose sides in a war that he never expected to fight in.\nI devoured this whole book in one sitting; Lowachee made me care about Jos the way no author had done for quite a while. Her world is vast and fascinating while still intensely character-driven. Jos is an incredible character, his actions and emotions completely congruent with the traumatic experiences of his past. As far as gay relationships go it never gets beyond heavy subtext, but it's Jos's issues getting in the way, not the writer, and you'll ache for him. Run, don't walk, to buy this book.\nBurndive picks up where Warchild left off--but with an entirely new protagonist. Our new narrator is Ryan Azarcon, the bratty rich-kid son of Captain Azarcon from the previous book, who gets hauled kicking and screaming into the war that Jos and his father have been fighting. Jos does show up later and becomes a distant sort of friend to Ryan, but he remains as asocial and incommunicative as ever, and without his POV we really don't know what's gone on with him and Niko in the mean time. Burndive is as well-written as the first, but despite the leaps and bounds his character progresses, Ryan is simply less interesting than Jos.\nWow--this book makes me wish I hadn't given Warchild the highest possible rating, just so I could give Cagebird one more. The newest protagonist in Lowachee's space opera is Yuri Kirov, the pirate who kidnapped Ryan at the end of Burndive, and a protege of the same space pirate who took on Jos... only Yuri never ran away. I would say that this book is darker even than Warchild, because Yuri has no Niko to save him--everything he does, for himself and the ones he loves, he has to do alone, and it seems like the only choices he ever gets are between bad and worse. Both sex and violence are ramped up in this book, and fairly well run the gamut of squicks. The only frustrating thing is the knowledge that the next book will pick up with a different protagonist, and we won't get to see how Yuri's life, which is finally looking up at the end, will pan out.\nMasahiko, Shimada\nDream Messenger\nNot so much \"gay fiction\" as literature by a gay author, who of course couldn't keep himself from making the protagonist bisexual. It's neither sci-fi nor fantasy, but has the loose relationship with reality that is characteristic of Japanese literature. Dream Messenger follows the story of Matthew (aka Masao) from his youth as a \"rental child\" in New York (which is not what it sounds like, but rather children who can be borrowed part-time by couples who want to play like the children are their own) to his floating, freelancing life in Tokyo where he continues the tradition by being a rental friend, among other things. Reception to Dream Messenger when it came out in the U.S. was mixed, with a lot of people complaining about his empty, materialistic life and the lack of a message--I think they missed the point entirely, but even I'll admit that Japanese literature is an acquired taste.\n(Other books in the series are The Devil and Deep Space, An Exchange of Hostages, and Hour of Judgment but they are and damned if they ever will be.)\nIf I had stopped reading this book when I first wanted to, it would have gotten a star and a half, or maybe two. At 57% of the way through, it was down to zero and I couldn't continue. If I kept going it would probably end up negative. It's not even really gay, and the only reason it's on my damn list is to keep some other poor schmuck from seeing it on the Lambda Sci-Fi Recommended Booklist (what were you thinking, lambda people??) and wasting their time and/or money on it.\nThe plot: Andrej Koscuisko is a physician and dyed-in-the-wool sadist, which makes him well-suited for his job as an official Inquistor, re: torturer. If I were a movie critic, I would make some snarky one-liner about how this book was torture. He gets transferred to a prison, the man that it's implied he was sleeping with gets killed in a terrorist attack, and he tortures a bunch of people. According to other reviews he has some crisis of conscience later, but I didn't read that far. I know that makes this review suspect, and I apologize, but I couldn't take it anymore.\nThe problems: Let's start with her distractingly horrid prose. It's not even amateur, it's something else entirely--a third person omniscient narrator that slides between different points of view for only a few lines at a time, has an inconsistent, inexplicable, painful use of 'thee' and 'thou,' and is riddled with asides that are dumb, irrelevant, and often contradictory. Also she has a tendency to. Break up. Her sentences. In really stupid ways. I wish I were joking. Not to mention the absolutely moronic way that she anthropomorphizes Andrej's penis and refers to it as his \"fish.\" And that's just the style problems--now picture plot and characterization handled with the same finesse.\n(Incidentally, see Mind Fuck, by Manna Francis, for a torturer-protagonist done right.)\nMcCann, Maria\nThe critics may have raved about this book, but I have never met an actual person who actually liked it.\nThe plot, in one line: A gay man named George and his roommate/BFF, a straight woman named Nina, are forced to reconsider their lives and their relationships when she gets pregnant and wants him to be a surrogate father. The problem, in two words: They're boring.\nOr perhaps not boring, but certainly not very likable. As a narrator, George is judgmental, waffling, and only about 85% as witty as the author thinks he is. Although he and Nina are supposed to be very close and care about each other immensely, they spend most of the book sniping at one another while George feels bad for feeling exasperated with her. Their relationship suffers from the same problem that a lot of other media sporting the fag-plus-hag dynamic does -- that you don't get a good sense of why these two people are friends, apart from the assumption that of course any straight woman and any gay man will automatically become BFFs. (On the flip side, I point to Julie Andrews and Robert Preston in Victor Victoria for a gay-male/straight-female friendship done beautifully.)\nIn terms of romantic entanglements, nobody has chemistry with anybody, least of all George and the sort-of boyfriend he picks up along the way. Pro-tip: when you're worried that your boyfriend is more into you than you're into him, that's a sign to cut him loose. Yes, I know, it's called settling, and a lot of people end up doing that in the real world, but it doesn't make for interesting fiction and as a reader I could not be less invested in their relationship. When I'm reading a book I want to know why these two people dig each other. I don't give a damn about a protagonist who's fixated on finding a man, any man, and putting a ring on the first one with generic good-boyfriend qualities to wander by.\nCome on, people, play for higher stakes -- that's what makes fiction interesting.\nSci-fi of the most un-science-fiction-esque sort -- there are no aliens or flying cars here, just a future that's a little bit ahead of ours and populated by people real enough to have come from anywhere. The main character is a gay man named Zhang, and the book follows him as he travels from a socialist US that seems to have taken its cues from communist China, to a lonely stint on the arctic circle, to vibrant, impersonal, totalitarian Shanghai, and back again. There are narrative detours along the way to explore other people whose lives intersect briefly with Zhang's.\nI wanted to like this book more than I did. It touched on a lot of themes that resonate strongly with me -- wandering through life without knowing what you want from it; searching for friends and lovers but not really clicking with anybody; the lonely, liminal state of being an expatriate. It's extremely realistic, which is usually a good thing, but in this case I think it went too far and the resulting novel is rather dreary, lacking the flair of fiction. Zhang is not a particularly compelling character, but he's more interesting than the other narrators whose POV we occasionally delve into, and those sections weaken the story overall. A bland review for a fairly bland book.\nMerlis, Mark\nOne word summary of this book: Wow. It is... utterly unlike anything I've ever read before, bizarre and outrageously funny and I mostly loved it. It's the Iliad set to the seventies gay subculture, with all the camp and enthusiastic promiscuity that goes along with that. The main character is Pyrrhus, the extremely gay son of Achilles, who it has been prophecied must join the war before the Greeks can win--a task that Pyrrhus himself doesn't find very appealing. In many respects the book is very dated--as homosexuality becomes more mainstream, that aggressively free-love subculture is quickly becoming an anachronism; as AIDS becomes more manageable, the impact of AIDS allegories lessens. Still, Merlis has a marvelous knack for writing true-to-form humans, and you can empathize with each and every one of his characters, alternately rooting for and resenting the same people as the POV shifts.\nMonette, Sarah\nIt always hurts to recommend a book and have to amend it with \"it takes a while to get rolling, but...\" ...but you have to read this. Melusine has two main characters and splits the POV between them: Felix, a high-handed wizard aristocrat, and Mildmay, a scarred, snarky, aggressively pragmatic cat burglar from the lower end of the city. Very early on in the book (unfortunately, before we get a good handle on Felix's character), Felix is framed for the destruction of a very powerful, very important artifact and cursed with an insanity that prevents him from proving his innocence. His insanity, initially, is not very interesting and it's Mildmay's sections that keep the book afloat, as we gnaw on our nails waiting for fate to finally throw them together--which doesn't happen until over halfway through the book.\nThat's the problem with this book, that it drags until they meet, but HOT DAMN when they do. Don't get your hopes up for a romance between Felix and Mildmay (not now, not ever, and for a number of reasons), but Monette's hand for sharp, witty dialogue is brilliant and her character interactions are unparalleled. There is not a dull moment for the rest of the book, or for the rest of the sequel.\nIf Melusine's only flaw was the downtime before Felix and Mildmay met, then The Virtu is flawless. Finally cured of his insanity, Felix sets out with Mildmay to return home and attempt to fix the Virtu before their country is overrun. The sexual tension, which was largely absent in the last book due to Felix being busy with the crazy, runs hot and heavy all the way through. We finally get to learn what Felix is really like and find out that he is as fascinating a character as Mildmay, with even deeper flaws. Plot-wise, it doesn't end in a cliffhanger, but the lack of resolution in their relationship will leave you desperately waiting for the next installment in the series.\nEdit: I think it bears discussing that several people who have read these books have wound up loving Mildmay but hating Felix with astonishing intensity--we're talking about hating him so much that these slashfans are rooting for Mildmay to end up with a woman instead. Now I'll freely acknowledge that Felix fucks up--he fucks up a lot, and very big sometimes. He does some rather horrible things, but not out of malice and moreover (this is where they would disagree with me) he's not a horrible person. He reminds me a lot of Cal from the Wraeththu books; vicious to his enemies, careless with his loved ones, and always sorry when it's too damned late. Mildmay is an immensely likeable character, so when Felix hurts him it provokes a response for the reader to take his side against Felix, but Felix is not a simple \"bad guy\" and writing him off as such does Monette's books a huge disservice. That's my firm belief, but said Felix-haters have heard me out and been unmoved, so it really is subjective. And as someone else pointed out, in real life I am much more frequently the giver of abuse than the receiver, which could explain why I empathize more with Felix than Mildmay.\nI have become a Felix-apologist. I suppose there are worse things to be.\nI didn't get a chance to read The Mirador until many months after it had come out, but critical reaction to it had been a deafening silence, which was in itself telling. I knew that it had added Mehitabel, a woman introduced in the last book, as a viewpoint character, which I wasn't particularly looking forward to because I'd found her thoroughly unmemorable. Though as irony would have it, she turned out to be far more interesting than I'd expected, and the rest of the book far less.\nFollowing their adventures in the last book, Felix and Mildmay are getting (re)accustomed to life in the Mirador, where Felix is somewhat of a social pariah and Mildmay is totally a social pariah. Mehitabel's story runs mostly independent of theirs, as she juggles being a stage actress with being blackmailed into spying on the Mirador's major players for the Bastion, Melusine's ancient rival. The budding romance between Mehitabel and Mildmay, which had been hinted at toward the end of The Virtu, gets put out of its misery right away, which is a relief because that leaves Mehitabel free to be her own character instead of a love interest.\nAnd then... nothing happens. Seriously. Nuthin. Felix is bitchy, Mildmay is passive-aggressive, and they spend the entire book getting in petty fights with each other and with all the supporting characters. They both make some desultory investigations into separate matters -- Felix checking around to make sure that Malkar is going to stay dead, Mildmay investigating who killed his lady-love in Melusine -- but on the whole, this book might as well have not happened. It is four hundred pages of them wandering around accomplishing very little, followed by twenty pages of frenetic action as if the author realized that it couldn't be a book unless it had some kind of climax. Granted, Monette's writing style is very good and she makes it fairly interesting to watch her characters do nothing, but that doesn't change the fact that this book is absolutely stagnant in terms of character and plot development.\nAfter the disappointment that was The Mirador, I went into the last book of the series with rock-bottom expectations. That actually worked out well for me, because I got to be pleasantly surprised and ended up enjoying it immensely -- despite its undeniable flaws.\nSo the Mirador has decided to wash their hands of Felix and kick him on down the line to seek judgement/punishment in Corambis, which means that Felix and Mildmay are on the road again. They're sharing the narrative this time with a man named Kay, the sole survivor of an unsuccessful coup in Corambis, now blind, bereaved, and disgraced. They get to the city and stuff happens.\nCharacters - Brilliant, all of them. Felix and Mildmay are finally, finally starting to get their relationship on this side of functional, and growing into people who can survive on their own. The side characters are engaging, well-drawn individuals with lives independent of the protagonists -- the friends that Felix and Mildmay make, Kay's fiancee (who could easily have turned into a stereotype) and his brother-in-law (who had RAGING chemistry with Felix, Jesus Christ, I wish they'd ended up together).\nWorld-building - The Titan clocks are cool and appropriately menacing. Monette's system of magic is well-defined and credible, and the cultural context for magic -- history, schisms, religious influences, differing disciplines -- is beautifully rich and developed. I cannot stress enough how believable and real her world feels.\nProse & Dialogue - Goes without saying by this point, I think. By turns funny, poignant, and horrifying, this woman knows how to write.\nWeakness: Plotting\nThe earlier books showed signs of this too -- an overall lack of focus that led to a lot of cool ideas mentioned but never followed up on, characters introduced and then ignored, plot threads dropped and never picked up again. This wasn't a deal-killer, because the series is primarily character-driven and characters are Monette's forte, so most readers were willing to give her the benefit of the doubt and wait to see if Corambis was going to do something really, really clever and tie it all together. Spoiler -- it doesn't. If you reconcile yourself to that before setting out, you'll be able to enjoy this book; if you don't, you will be frustrated and angry with it. Even disregarding dropped threads from the previous books (Malkar, Mehitabel, Keeper, the Bastion, the Khloidanikos, etc), plenty of major-seeming plot events in Corambis wind up being unused and unnecessary. Including Kay, whom I liked a lot and whose subplot was very interesting, but ultimately not relevant enough to Mildmay and Felix's to justify his inclusion as a viewpoint character.\nAll in all, I loved this series. Loved it passionately. If I had such things as Top-10 lists, this would make it. Which is why it breaks my heart that I can't tell people, It's perfect, when I rec it to them.\n(Written in collaboration with Elizabeth Bear)\nIn a Norse-Germanic flavored fantasy world of the far north, young men are chosen from among the villages to join the Wolfheall, an elite brotherhood of warriors psychically bonded to wolves in order to fight against the cannibalistic trolls that descend from the mountains to prey on the villagers. The main character is Njall (Isolfr after he bonds), the son of a chieftain who gets tapped to join the brotherhood.\nAs I was reading this, I couldn't tell if this book was a realistic, unflinching portrayal of a society with sexual practices shaped by wolves and thereby quite different from our own, or whether the world-building was just a vehicle for the gay porn, of which there is rather a lot. (Naked male torso on the cover, we know what that means.) To be sure, this is very different than most books you'll find in the Telepathically Bonded Companion subgenre -- these are no shiny white horses with sparkling blue eyes, or hawks or dragons that speak in complete sentences and exert only minimal effect on their handler despite the ostensibly reciprocal bonding. In Companion to Wolves, the wolves have as much influence as their human companions, if not more.\nThat said, I think exploring the sexual aspects of the world-building overwhelmed the first half of the book. I found myself reading for the porny bits, because initially there's not much plot stuff going on, the other world-building is less interesting, and Isolfr is a reactive and not very strongly-sketched protagonist. There's plot in the second half, but the conflict is very black-and-white and there are no character-centered subplots to help drive it.\nOkay, so one of the things that made me less than enthusiastic about Companion to Wolves is that the main character, Isolfr, is the straightest straight man ever to engage in gratuitous amounts of hardcore gay sex. It's the wolf-bond, played much the same as McCaffrey did with dragons -- when Isolfr's lady-wolf is in heat, he doesn't have much of a choice who he ends up in bed with. But apart from that: nada. There are several guys around who really, really wish he weren't straight, but 99% of the time he's politely fending them off. It doesn't matter that these guys who are into him are fully hot and have many admirable qualities -- he's just not into dudes, and never will be.\nAnd that's life sometimes. But I get enough of that in reality; in fiction, that's not the story I want to read.\nIn any case, plot: with the trolls gone and vanquished, the wolf-bonded warriors find themselves at a distinct loss for what to do, and are trying both to rebuild themselves and find a purpose as to what they're rebuilding for. The Tempering of Men uses Skjaldwulf and Vethulf (Isolfr's two co-pack leaders, in case you forgot, as I did) for viewpoint characters, both of whom are into dudes, even in a society that doesn't conceptualize homosexuality the same way that ours does.\nI think I preferred Tempering of Men to Companion to Wolves; the conflict is more nuanced, men vs. men rather than men vs. cannibalistic monsters, and I don't have to deal with a gay book narrated by a straight guy. Still, neither one is as interesting as the books that Monette and Bear have written independently.\nThe Bone Key\nThis book is different from Monette's other published works, in that it is horror and a short story collection, both of which kept me from looking for it too hard. Turns out both are true, but it's horror in the Gothic, atmospheric tradition of Poe and Lovecraft rather than wallowing in gore for the sake of shock value (Hail, Ms. Brite), and all ten stories revolve around the same character, making it more episodic than anthological.\nOur protagonist is Kyle Murchison Booth, a museum archivist in the vein of Poe's neurotic heroes, intelligent but nervy and horrifically uncomfortable with people, and implied to be latently homosexual. In the first story he's talked into attempting to resurrect his friend's dead wife, and after that brush with the other side he can't get the other side to leave him alone. As always, Monette's writing is great, and her deft hand for characterization saves Booth from becoming the pathetic, painful-to-read oaf that such socially awkward characters usually get treated as. (Hail, Philip K. Dick.) Booth is sympathetic, engaging, and self-aware, never as inept on the outside as he feels on the inside, as if he hasn't quite caught up with the fact that adults don't bully each other the way kids do. Highly recommended.\nMorgan, Richard K.\nOne of the many grim-n-gritty fantasies spawned by George RR Martin's successors, The Steel Remains has the distinction of being the only one with a gay protagonist. Two, in fact -- an embittered veteran named Ringil who has now been tasked to track down his cousin, who was sold into slavery, and Archeth, a gay lady and the last remaining member of some ancient race. Also sharing the narrative is their token straight friend, a Mongol nomadic steppe warrior named Egar.\nThe problem: I could not give a fuck.\nMorgan's prose is excellent; the story starts off strong and initially I quite liked Ringil. The way he constructs his sexuality vis-a-vis his society is different from the way most queer fantasies play it, very interesting and very plausible. But then... it goes nowhere. Our protagonists spend almost the entire book engaged in three unrelated plotlines that not one of them gives any shits about. Ringil is sort of looking for his cousin, but he doesn't care. Archeth is sort of investigating a thing, but she doesn't care. Egar is getting laid, and you'd think he'd be able to work up some enthusiasm for that, but no. Not a one of them has any emotional connection to the other characters they're associating with, so every interaction is dreary and tedious. (Presumably they like each other, since the three are stated to be old war buddies, but considering that they're never even in the same room until 50 pages from the end...) Frankly, if they don't give a flying fuck about what they're doing, then how am I supposed to?\nThe Steel Remains has also drawn criticism for being all rape, all the time, as is currently in vogue for grim-n-gritty fantasy. That's not the deal-killer for me that it is for others, but Morgan certainly didn't bring anything new to the table with it. More in-depth analysis of the book's structural flaws at my blog.\nPinto, Ricardo\nSet in a brutal, heavily ritualized fantasy society with a distinctly Aztec feel, our protagonist is a young man named Carnelian, heir to the empire's class of ruling elite. Living with his exiled father, Carnelian has spent most of his life on a lonely island far removed from the decadence and intrigue of the capital. When the emperor dies and his father is summoned back to society, Carnelian suddenly finds himself trapped in dangerous political games that threaten both him and those he loves... which could have made for a good ride if it weren't so freaking dull.\nMy initial complaint had been with this book was the pointless, over-the-top violence -- not because it made me squeamish but because it made me go, Bitch, please. Jim Grimsley's The Last Green Tree remains the only book that's been able to faze me with sci-fi grotesqueries, and while I certainly wouldn't want to live in George R.R. Martin's brutal fantasyland, it's imminently believable. The Chosen is not -- the ruling elite is so excessively, indiscriminately hazardous to the health of everyone within a ten mile radius that, had this been real, their society would have quickly destabilized in its own violence and collapsed in bloody revolution. Laws are only worth obeying as long as they provide some degree of degree of protection -- when you can be minding your own business and still get slaughtered for no reason by passing aristocrats, that's not going to fly. The book was alternately boring and off-putting, and even the gay part, about 2/3 of the way through, couldn't salvage it. I'd been endeavoring to finish it for the sake of the booklist, but then it occurred to me with sudden clarity, Life is too short to waste on books that suck! I put it down and never looked back.\nSince then I've discussed the book with someone well versed in pre-modern anthropology who liked The Chosen and has assured me that Pinto (an anthropologist himself) knows what he's talking about; Aztec culture really was that pointlessly brutal. \"Oh,\" I said. \"Hmm. Well it's still really boring.\" \"Yes,\" she replied, \"and if you've read that far, then there's nothing at the end that's going to change your mind.\" So my review stands.\nIt's been a long time since I read this, but I remember liking it overall despite a few objections. It tells the grand and sweeping story of castrati singers in Renaissance Italy--Guido, a eunuch who loses his voice in spite of the castration and feels his life over, and Tonio, a young nobleman who is enchanted by the music of the castrati but by virtue of his station unable (and obviously unwilling) to become one. The prose is vintage Anne Rice, before she got bigger than God and fired all her editors. The romance is between Guido and Tonio, but also between Tonio and a girl, who is as saccharine and boring as most of Anne Rice's female characters. The ending was unsatisfactory, but on the whole, very much worth reading.\nRobinson, Frank M.\nIf you like sci-fi, this is brilliant sci-fi. If you're reading it for the gay, you're going to be sadly disappointed. Like countless other fictional societies in which \"bisexuality is the norm\", it's just a sideline activity until the protagonist manages to score with the heterosexual love interest. Typical.\nBut all bitching aside, this is a very cool book, dark and captivating and creepy as hell. It kicks off with our protagonist, Sparrow, losing all his previous memories and waking up to find himself on an ancient, dying ship that has been searching unsuccessfully for alien life for the past two thousand years. We're plunged into a mystery as Sparrow tries to figure who he was before, why he seems to be different from everyone else onboard, and why everyone's lying to him. I was, predictably, smitten with the villain, hateful and antisocial sex predator that he is. Unfortunately he turned out to be something of a disappointment, because his resolution never matched up to the hype he got, although plot-wise the book did a good job keeping me hooked even after the initial mystery was revealed.\nPoint of Hopes\nPoint of Hopes is set in a city in which horoscopes and astrology are both accurate and of major importance. The main characters are a policeman named Nicolas Rathe, the only cop in the city who doesn't take bribes and a bit of a curiousity for it, and a soldier named Philip Eslingen who's working as a bouncer in the off-season. Rathe is working to solve a case involving missing children, and Philip is sort of helping.\nThis is essentially a detective story, only it's the way detective work probably goes more in real life than in fiction: lots of legwork, lots of talking with people, lots of leads that go nowhere. As a result it's a rather slow read, though it never dragged so badly that I wanted to quit. Rathe and Eslingen are pleasant enough characters, but neither of them has much of a sense of humor. Any chemistry or sexual tension, at least in this book, run so subtly as to be nearly invisible. The book also has a bad habit of reiterating events that we've already seen as other characters get informed of what happened in their absence. All in all though, I'd recommend it.\nPoint of Dreams\nSo Nico and Philip were friendly acquaintances at the end of the last book, and in this one we are dropped into the story some six months later after they are already together, without so much as a flashback to indicate how it happened. To which I say, \"Oh, you did NOT!\" But they did, and worse--not only do the authors never show Nico and Philip carrying on like the lovers they're supposed to be, we don't even get to see so much as an intimate conversation. They're friendly but never affectionate; if I hadn't been told point-blank that they're sleeping together I wouldn't have believed it, because they have all the chemistry of Hayden Christensen and Natalie Portman. Burn.\nSo the story kicks off with Philip losing his job, because he's with Nico now, and working for a crime lord while sleeping with a cop generates the sort of conflict of interest his employer would like to avoid. He gets a job at a theatre, teaching extras how to fence, and when inexplicably dead bodies start turning up onstage Nico finds himself hanging around a lot too. The mystery in this book is more interesting than the one in Point of Hopes and dialogue handled with less of the redundancy that I complained about before. Sadly, I remain distracted by how unbelievably stingy the authors were with Philip and Nico's relationship. Lesbian extras get more explicit lovin' than our bold heroes. Nico has a hot and heavy kissing scene with his ex-boyfriend but never exchanges so much as a smoldering glance with Philip. What's going on here, people? Seriously.\nI was so fucking excited for this book -- monsters as love interests! queers! Finland! -- and so fucking disappointed when I finally read it.\nThe Donald Strachey Mysteries\nI'm not even into mysteries, but these are so. much. fun.\nWaitman, Katie\nThe plot in one line: Mikk is an artist who has mastered many different forms of live performance, but when he performs something forbidden he finds himself on trial for his life. It's set in our own galaxy, with lots of different alien species that all seem to have sex with each other willy-nilly; Mikk is vaguely humanoid and his soulmate is a giant snake. A male giant snake, granted, which is where the gay comes in, but that pales beside the fact that his boyfriend is a giant fucking snake.\nThis book would have worked better in first person. Mikk is--no two ways around it--a hypersensitive weirdo, and without his perspective we're left shaking our heads at his bizarre responses the way all the other characters are. Crazy people can make marvelous protagonists, but you have to see it from their point of view as well so you realize they're not as random as they sound. (See Monette for Melusine) Without it, I can't empathize with Mikk or care much for his plight, and since the plot is all about his fate I'm not working up much enthusiasm for that either. Also, as other reviewers have pointed out, Mikk's trial reads like a Socratic discourse on censorship, and not a particularly inventive one at that.\nSarah Waters is probably the best-known writer of lesbian fiction at work today, writing Victorian historical fiction of such quality that it pushes her out of the niche of \"gay writer\" into the mainstream. Tipping the Velvet was the first of her books that I read, and it remains my favorite. The protagonist is Nancy -- quickly re-christened \"Nan\" -- a humble oyster girl whose life is changed forever when she meets Kitty, a vaudeville performer with a male-impersonation act. Powerfully drawn to the other girl, without quite knowing why, Nan ends up becoming a drag king herself and joining Kitty onstage in London. Everything's coming up roses... until suddenly it's not, and Nan is homeless, jobless, and loveless.\nWaters is a fantastic writer of period fiction, expertly evoking the attitudes and atmosphere of the time. Nan is a thoroughly lovable protagonist -- down to earth, affectionate, resourceful, far more resilient than she realizes -- and we are right there with her as she struggles to survive in London's gay underbelly. (And if you like it, BBC also made a fantastic three-part miniseries of it.)\nMy only criticism -- which could double as a topic for a book-club discussion -- is that I thought Kitty was more interesting than Nan's later love interest, highlighting the fact that Nan's romances follow a formula I've seen in other gay fiction: the protagonist's first foray into gay relationships ends because their lover is too closeted; the protagonist is broken-hearted but eventually recovers and finds someone who appreciates them more. (Off the top of my head, Maurice and the movie Mambo Italiano do this too.) The only problem is that the first love interest gets lavished with character development, because the author has to show us what it was about this person that convinced the protagonist to bat for the home team. By the time the second one rolls around, the ice has been broken, and all you need is someone with the right plumbing and a few signifiers to indicate that this is a Good Person. (She campaigns for women's suffrage! He works at a suicide hotline for gay youth!) Cases like these, I'm inevitably rooting for the protagonist to get back with their ex.\nMargaret Prior is a young woman growing up in affluence in Victorian England. In an attempt to rouse herself from her depression following the death of her father, she decides to take up visiting the female inmates at Millbanks prison, the sort of genteel community service deemed appropriate for a girl of her age and station. There she meets Selena Dawes -- beautiful, mysterious, ethereal -- who was a famed spirit medium until a seance-gone-wrong ended with a client dead and Selena in prison for his murder. As Margaret gets drawn deeper and deeper into Selena's orbit, strange things that seem like they could only be the work of spirits start happening.\nThe work Waters does with Margaret's characterization is masterful, how she manages a gradual reveal of the true depth of Margaret's repressed problems even though she's the viewpoint character. Her prose does a perfect job conjuring up the deadening, soul-destroying oppression of a Victorian prison, an institution committed to stripping all beauty, individuality, and dignity from its occupants, which makes the spark of connection between Margaret and Selena all the more breathtaking for its fragile, embattled humanity. The premise is excellent -- the problem is the ending, and it's difficult-nigh-impossible to explain why without giving away massive plot twists. So if you want a pristine reading experience, just be told: I don't know anyone who liked how it ended. For general spoilers, read on.\nFor all that Margaret was well-drawn and I felt for her very deeply, she is a very passive character, and moreover, she never changes. I'd been hoping for a story where her relationship with Selena helped her gain strength and confidence, and helped her break her reliance on laudanum. Without that added depth of growth and change, the ending is just tawdry -- Margaret is pathetic, and Selena is a worthless petty swindler. We don't even get the sense that Margaret's going to take anything away from this experience either, just suffer more heartbreak and humiliation.\nAnd on a more idiosyncratic note, it also hit a particular pet peeve of mine: fiction that purports to be set in \"our world,\" except there seems to be magic going on. The story goes back and forth, is-it-magic-or-isn't-it?, steadily stacking the deck in favor of \"no other explanation but magic\" until at last... they explain it all away by rational means. (The new Sherlock Holmes movie did this too, and I wasn't a fan of it there either.) It always feels so condescending, like, Oh teehee, you actually believed it was magic? How naive! Don't you know that magic doesn't exist in the REAL world? .....fuck you, it was fiction, it could have been magic.\nIn the Dickens-esque London of the poor and disreputable, Sue Trinder is a thief, raised by a loose \"family\" of like-minded individuals. One day a con man of their acquaintance, the handsome but otherwise despicable \"Gentleman,\" comes to them with a scam that will land the ultimate score -- he's found an heiress named Maud, living on an isolated estate with her eccentric uncle, whose inheritance will make them rich beyond their wildest dreams if she can be enticed to marry Gentleman, after which he intends to throw her into an insane asylum and vanish with his ill-gotten gains. Gentleman wants to set Sue up as Maud's maid, so that she's in a position to help Gentleman woo the girl, and is willing to give her a generous share of the booty for her assistance.\nThe first half of the story is from Sue's point of view, their skullduggery as she infiltrates the household -- and her growing attachment to Maud, coupled with guilty unease whenever she remembers what they're planning to do to her. The second half is from Maud's point of view, in which we learn that everything we thought we knew was wrong. Plot twists, ahoy!\nI liked both characters a lot; Sue is interesting because you get the sense that by nature she's a decent person, but raised as she was in a den of thieves whose attitude is one of entitlement to whatever they can get their hands on, her moral compass is way skewed. She lacks common empathy, to the point where she thinks nothing at all of throwing an innocent girl into an insane asylum so they can steal her fortune, and never balks at the idea until she finds herself falling in love with Maud and suddenly it's personal. But that's okay, because Maud's got a few secrets (and neuroses) of her own.\n(WARNING: general spoilers follow) Again, I think it falls apart at the end though. The plot twists get just a little too incredible until they start to strain belief, and character motivations start to get very implausible. Seriously, Mrs. Sucksby raised Sue from infancy and didn't grow even a little fond of her? Did they sedate Maud? Because that's the only way to explain why she so readily and passively accepts her new situation in the Sucksby house, when it's obvious she thinks they're filthy degenerates and hates it there. And lastly, I would have liked the reconciliation scene between Sue and Maud expanded. Come on, it's been a very melodramatic ride; there's no call for subtlety at this point, and a little emotional outpouring would not have gone amiss.\nThis list is maintained by Gabriel; all opinions herein are mine\nand all suggestions or flame mail should be directed at me.

Total bookstore sales hit $673 million this July, down from $686 million in 2016.\nThe sales decline in the month moved bookstore sales for 2017 into negative territory. Sales for the first seven months of 2017 were $5.72 billion, down from $5.74 billion in the comparable period in 2016, marking a drop of 0.3%.\nFor the full retail sector, July sales rose 2.8% over 2017 and sales in the year to date were up 3.8%.\nPrevious articleThe Handmaid\u2019s Tale and Big Little Lies get top honors at Emmy Awards\nNext article10 Creepy Psychological Thrillers\nEnglish teachers adapt reading lists in the age of Trump",

        "title": "Review: Heartless - Marissa Meyer",
        "raw_content": "I loved everything about this wonderful fairy tale retelling and I can't believe I have never read anything by Marissa Meyer before this. I understand her Lunar Chronicles are also retellings of a sort and I need them in my life - RIGHT NOW.\nHeartless is the story of Cath - the very eligible daughter of a marquess living in Hearts. Her dream is to be the best baker in all of the Kingdom and she really is a superb baker and quite possibly the very best in the land. Unfortunately we all know how this story will turn out - there will be no happily ever after, there will be no simple bakery and a life of love, for Cath is destined to be Queen - the 'terror of Wonderland'. This is the story of how she got there and of exactly the events that lead her to become so Heartless.\n\"You\u2019re the daughter of a marquess. Look around. Look at the things you have, the life you\u2019re accustomed to. You don\u2019t know what it\u2019s like to work every day so you can feed yourself and keep a roof over your head. You don\u2019t know what it\u2019s like to be poor. To be a servant\"\nThe world building felt effortless and is a blend of Victorian London and Carroll's Wonderland. There's a wonderful use of recognisable characters and a setting full of magic and lustre and also mystery and intrigue. It's not only Cath's story that is being told here, we meet The Mad Hatter before he was mad, we meet the Jabberwock before it becomes The Queen's most dangerous servant and we meet the Queen's executioner and learn what led him to serve the Queen.\nThere are so many action packed scenes and the pages of this book simply fly by. The usage of Wonderland's fantastical characters is done so well and with such nonchalance that it all felt so REAL. There's the Cheshire cat and his fabulous smile and disappearing act, there's the White Rabbit, The March Hair and the Caterpillar. There's tea parties with Hatta (the Mad Hatter), matchmaking, thrilling scenes with the Jabberwock, Victorian style repression of women, delicious baked treats and of course, there's the King of Hearts; a fairly harmless but bumbling, spineless man who wishes to marry Cath. It's unfortunate that she could never have been happy with him.\n\"Could she ever say yes to that? As she took a sip of tea, a more important question struck her. Could she ever say no?\"\nWhether you are a fan of the original or not, you can read and enjoy this story. It is a unique take on Wonderland long before Alice ever arrived. It's heartbreaking and frustrating and tragic on so many levels and even though the ending is already known you will find yourself rooting for Cath and just hoping that Meyer re-writes history and everything can change. I will never look upon the Queen of Hearts in the same way again.\n\"Such a heart can\u2019t be mended. I hope I won\u2019t be tasked with keeping such a useless artifact for much longer.\u201d",

        "title": "Review: Prince Caspian (The Chronicles of Narnia, #2) by C.S. Lewis | Books, Life & Wine",
        "raw_content": "The four Pevensies help Caspian battle Miraz and ascend his rightful throne.\nNARNIA\u2026the land between the lamp-post and the castle of Cair Paravel, where animals talk, where magical things happen\u2026and where the adventure begins.\nPeter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy are returning to boarding school when they are summoned from the dreary train station (by Susan\u2019s own magic horn) to return to the land of Narnia-the land where they had ruled as kings and queens and where their help is desperately needed.\nA prince fights for his crown. A prince denied his rightful throne gathers an army in a desperate attempt to rid his land of a false king. But in the end, it is a battle of honor between two men alone that will decide the fate of an entire world.\nI love the Narnia series and I\u2019ve read it many, many times. Whenever I read this series, I always read it in original publication order \u2013 as it should be.\nIt\u2019s hard to review books you love so this is more like\u2026a smattering of a review combined with my general thoughts and feelings.\nPrince Caspian introduces one of my favorite characters: the talking mouse Reepicheep. Reepicheep is fierce and I love him to pieces. When I first read this series, I was taken with Reepicheep and with every re-read I realize what a wonderful character he is! The bravery, loyalty and honor along with the slight arrogance make Reepicheep a very human character.\nIn this particular re-read, I noticed that both The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe and Prince Caspian rather casually mention boarding schools. That is such a different world to me. I have to wonder, what was the prevalence of children going to boarding school at the time this series was written? I don\u2019t think I know anyone who\u2019s attended boarding school.\nIronic comment about telephones I noticed on this re-read:\n\u201cIt\u2019s worse than what Father says about living at the mercy of the telephone.\u201d \u2013 Prince Caspian, Chapter 8\nI wonder what the Pevensies\u2019 father would think of the way we live in 2014? The smart phones, the tablets and the constant email\u2026we\u2019re all living at the mercy of our digital devices now.\nWhile the Pevensies and Trumpkin are traveling to meet with Prince Caspian, Aslan appears to Lucy and [without speaking] motions for her to follow him. I never really understood why Aslan didn\u2019t appear to all of the children and just Lucy, during this re-read I came to wonder if Lewis was trying to make some point about faith. One definition of (religious based) faith is \u201cbelief that is not based on proof.\u201d Lucy is forced to wake everyone from a sound sleep and have them follow her. She is following Aslan but the rest of them can\u2019t see him at all. They just have to trust that Lucy is correct and that things will be alright.\nAs everyone knows, Edmund had been a traitor in The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, so I really appreciate the way Edmund backs Lucy when she tells them that she saw Aslan.\n\u201cWell, there\u2019s just this,\u201d said Edmund, speaking quickly and turning a little red. \u201cWhen we first discovered Narnia a year ago \u2013 or a thousand years ago, whichever it is \u2013 it was Lucy who discovered it first and none of us would believe her. I was the worst of the lot, I know. Yet she was right after all. Wouldn\u2019t it be fair to believe her this time? I vote for going up.\u201d\n\u2013 Prince Caspian, Chapter 8\nThe story of Prince Caspian moves quickly. The flight of Caspian from his uncle\u2019s castle, the beginning of the war for succession and the summoning of the children from England all happened very quickly. I want to say it happened within a matter of months. The war was close to over when Aslan shows himself to Miraz\u2019s soldiers. I\u2019m starting to notice that Aslan doesn\u2019t arrive until someone is already trying to do the right thing and are left with little to no resources. It reminds me of something my aunt used to say all the time, \u201cGod helps those who help themselves.\u201d\nThis book will also be the last time that the High King Peter and Queen Susan will be in Narnia. They are getting too old and will have to come to know Aslan in their own land. In previous reads, the aging out of Peter and Susan always made me feel incredibly sad\u2026but in this re-read\u2026I noticed that Peter and Susan aren\u2019t as fleshed out as Edmund and Lucy.\nIn the group read for The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe we (the group) focused in on the character Edmund and his motivations as well on the importance of Susan and Lucy (the fact that Susan and Lucy were graced to see Aslan\u2019s resurrection). During this discussion we started to feel that maybe Susan and Lucy were the \u201cimportant\u201d characters\u2026 Now I\u2019m starting to feel that [in addition to] Lucy and Edmund are the important characters in The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, Prince Caspian and my upcoming read: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader.\nTags: 2014 Reading Challenges 5 stars book review Chronicles of Narnia Epic Fantasy Fantasy Top 100 Fantasy Books",

        "raw_content": "Sure, travellers from all over the world pilgrimage to the glorious Inca citadel of Machu Picchu; however, this feted site is just one of the Empire's many splendid achievements.\nThe Incas \u2014 also known as the Tawantinsuyu (the Four Regions) \u2014 were a pastoral tribe in the Cusco area whose beginning dates to the 12th century. The Incan Empire spread the farthest of any civilizations in pre-Columbian America, stretching from Colombia all the way down to Chile. The centre of this vast civilization was Cusco, located high in the Andes mountains of Peru. A complex and rich culture, today there are many impressive archaeological sites across Peru and South America that showcase the Incas\u2019 advanced and once thriving civilization. In Peru, there are a number of key sites that provide travellers with the opportunity to learn about the Incan empire and its people.\nThere are many impressive archaeological sites across Peru.\n1. Pachac\u00e1mac\nOriginally named after a pre-Incan god, Pachac\u00e1mac \u2014 who was the creator of life and the universe \u2014 this site has been continuously inhabited and used for thousands of years. An important pre-Incan ceremonial ground, Pachac\u00e1mac later became an important administrative and religious centre. After the Incans conquered the area in 1440AD\u20131553AD, they added to and expanded the already impressively large complex. Building many religious and ceremonial edifices, they added temples to the sun god, and adobe structures. This site has some of the best preserved pre-Incan and Incan buildings in Peru, as well as spectacular views of the surrounding countryside and coastline. Located near the coast, just outside Lima, it is easily accessed as a day trip from Peru\u2019s capital.\nPachac\u00e1mac's got an impressively large complex. Leave time to explore it fully.\n2. Ollantaytambo\nSituated high in the Andes mountains, Ollantaytambo is one of the few towns in Peru to still have its original Incan walls and street grid. This small mountain town is an imposing mix of large stone walls, stone terraces, and communal courtyards. Locals walk on the same streets today as their Incan ancestors did thousands of years ago. With its ancient roots and sweeping views of the jagged Andes peaks, Ollantaytambo is a unique place to explore. On the train route from Cusco to Machu Picchu, it is an easy Incan site to visit.\nTake the path up and around the stone terraces for amazing views of Ollantaytambo. Photo courtesy Thibault H.\n3. Cusco and the Koricancha\nCusco, meaning \u201cnavel of the world,\u201d was once the heart of the Incan Empire. A thriving capital, as well as holy city, from the 13th\u201316th centuries, Peruvian legend states that Cusco was built by Sapa Inca Pachacuti, who brought the Incans from being a small society into the vast empire of the Tawantinsuyu. How the Incans constructed the architecturally complex city of Cusco still remains a mystery to archaeologists and historians. Strategically situated in the Urubamba Valley in the Andes mountain range, Cusco was built around four main highways that led to the four quarters of the Incan Empire. The city was further divided into two main sectors \u2014 hurin and hanan. Most of Incan Cusco was destroyed during the Spanish conquest, though some of the original walls, streets, and pieces of buildings still remain. The holiest site in ancient Cusco was the Koricancha (Sun Temple), which was covered in gold. Converted into a Spanish monastery, much of the original temple remains intact. Close to other famous Incan sites, such as Machu Picchu and Ollantaytambo, Cusco is a good home base for learning about the Incan culture and empire.\nStart walking around central Cusco and it won't be long until you see original Inca stones.\nChoquequirao, termed \u201ccradle of gold\u201d in Quechua, is considered the sister city of Machu Picchu. Larger than Peru\u2019s most famous Incan site, Choquequirao is visited by fewer tourists providing travellers a chance to quietly enjoy the spectacular site without the crush of people that its more famous sister city tends to attract. Built around the same time as Machu Picchu, only 30 percent of the city has been excavated by archaeologists. Choquequirao served as a social, economic, political, and religious centre. Its design is similar to the imperial capital, and included all strata of the population \u2014 from wealthy administrators and political officials, to artisans, religious individuals, and farmers. Well preserved and built with impeccable attention to detail, Choquequirao is well worth the 5+ day trek to reach it.\nChoquequirao is Machu Picchu's sister city. Photo courtesy Mark R.\n5. Inca Trail and Machu Picchu\nNo exploration of Incan culture is complete without a visit to Machu Picchu, the most famous ancient Incan site and one of the most impressive ancient building projects in South America. Built in the 15th century at the height of the Incan empire, the city was constructed on a sharp ridge of the Andes mountains. Mistakenly called the \u201cLost City of the Incas\u201d (it was always known to locals in Peru, though went undiscovered during the Spanish invasion), the city was built as an estate for the Incan king Pachacuti. Constructed in the classical Incan style, it has three main sections of the complex: Inti Watana, the Temple of the Sun, and the Room of Three Windows. Surrounded by soaring peaks, thick, encroaching jungle, and swirling mist that hugs the twisting mountains ridges, Machu Picchu is an imposing location to explore. It lives up to its reputation as one of the best-preserved and most interesting Inca sites in Peru.\nNo list would be complete without the famous ruins of Machu Picchu.",

They are very much alike, but may be distinguished by a difference in the width of the dark border of the wings; and are named Broad-bordered and Narrow-bordered respectively.\nFig. 102.-The Broad-bordered Bee Hawk.\nThe former is illustrated in the woodcut appended. The fore wings are transparent like those of bees, with a dark central spot and a broad reddish-brown hind margin. The base and costa are black and tinged with green. The hind wings are similarly coloured, but have no central spot. The body is olive-brown, with a broad reddish belt, and behind are tufts of hair, which are spread out when the insect flies, just after the manner of the tail feathers of a bird. The moth flies in May.\nThe larva resembles that of Stellatarum, but exhibits a violet tint above the legs. Its horn, too, is curved, and of a reddish or brownish colour. It feeds on the honeysuckle (Lonicera Periclymenum), ragged robin (Lychnis Flos-cuculi), evening campion (L. vespertina), red campion (L. diurna), lady\u2019s bedstraw (Galium verum), and the field scabious (Scabiosa arvensis), during the month of July.\nLeave a reply to Lepidoptera The Broad-bordered Bee Hawk Moth - Macroglossa Fuciformis",

        "raw_content": "Civil Society Response to India-Africa Summit\nIndia-Africa Summit\nThe third India Africa Forum Summit 2015, held from 26 to 29 October, set the stage for a new era in mutual partnership between two of the world's fastest growing regions, aimed at deepening the spirit of partnership, strengthening international solidarity and expanding cooperation.\nIt is widely acknowledged that the Agenda-2063 document, which spells out Africa\u2019s vision over the next five decades, is closely aligned with Indian and African \u201cdevelopment goals\u201d and \u201cinternational aspirations.\u201d\nWhile the aim at the third India-Africa Forum Summit in Delhi was to set substantially higher and ambitious targets for development partnership between the two sides, it also aimed at making it \u201cmore effective\u201d drawing upon the experience over the past decade.\nThe summit addressed the key challenges facing Africa, which includes food, health and environmental security. Apart from this, two documents were negotiated; one was a political document that talked of the political partnership between India and Africa. It touched upon global and regional issues. Other one was a framework document of cooperation on development partnership of Africa, line of credit by India to African nations. India's trade with Africa has increased 20 times since the beginning of the century and currently stands at $70 billion. India's investments in Africa are in the range of $30 to $35 billion. India has given $7.4 billion concessional credit for 17 projects across 41 African countries. These projects cover areas including water, agriculture, infrastructure and energy.\nApart from touching base on green economy, blue economy, India has been concentrating on institution building, on education, telemedicine and skill development projects. None of this is spectacular, but touches the lives of ordinary Africans.\nIt is the last few issues where the role of the civil society is very crucial. The governments can use the expertise and vast knowledge that voluntary organisations have accumulated through their work on grass root levels and in some cases, by implementing projects abroad. By developing mechanisms which involve civil society organisations as development partners and not merely as service providers and aid facilitators, India and African countries can establish a more effective, transparent and accountable structure of development cooperation.\nIn the backdrop of the last Indo-Africa summit, VANI would like to initiate a process of continued dialog between the key CSO leaders from both the regions including government officials and the think tank like RIS and FIDC on how voluntary organisations can learn from each other and become credible and responsible partners in the development process.\nThe meeting will bring together key civil society organizations from both the regions in order to have a better understanding about their contributions in developmental works to strengthen India-Africa ties.\nThe larger objective is to reflect on the government led process during the recently concluded India-Africa summit and provide forward ideas for /from the Civil Society organizations from both the regions. The proposed meeting would be a response from the civil society organizations for providing space for the interaction and coming up with recommendations /position paper etc in the view of India-Africa summit.\nReview and introspect the roles of civil society in India and Africa in the wake of recently concluded India-Africa summit\nDiscussing the transnational roles of civil society in terms of current challenges and opportunities in promoting transformative developments in both the regions\nConcrete suggestions for building government-civil society partnership in transnational work.\nActivities during two days International Meeting\nPresentation on \u2018the role of civil society in enhancing Indo-Africa partnership\u2019\nCountry wise presentations from 6 African nations on roles of their local civil societies in bringing up changes\nDiscussion on strengthening ties between India and Africa through effervescent civil society engagements",

        "title": "What are Dead Sea salts?",
        "raw_content": "About Dead Sea Salts\nDead Sea salts originate from the Dead Sea, which is located between Jordan and Israel. People have flocked to this area from all over the world since ancient times to experience the therapeutic benefits of the waters. Two thousand years ago, Flavius wrote that the salts from the Dead Sea heal the human body. In the 18th century, interest in the Dead Sea minerals grew with the discovery of their marvelous healing properties, particularly for skin diseases. The Dead Sea boasts a unique source of minerals, created naturally under extraordinary climatic conditions. Dead Sea salt is consequently quite differe nt from ordinary salt. It has almost no sodium (10%), and instead is incredibly rich in minerals such as zinc, idodine, potassium, calcium, magnesium and bromides. These minerals are naturally occurring in the human body and are crucial to many processes, and need to be replenished regularly as they are lost.\nHere are some reasons why regular, Dead Sea salt baths can benefit you:\n1. You'll decrease stress.\nSoaking a in warm bath with the high concentration of health-promoting minerals found in the Dead Sea increases your circulation and supports detoxification in your body by removing toxic by-products. As your circulation improves, your heart rate decreases. The warmth of the water and the mineral salt work together to relax your mind, your body, and spirit. After a long bath, you feel rejuvenated and refreshed.\n2. You'll improve insomnia.\nFrom a nutritional perspective, magnesium deficiency can play a role in poor sleep. Taking a bath with magnesium-rich Dead Sea salts allows you to absorb magnesium effectively through your skin and helps support a good night\u2019s sleep. Taking a long, relaxing bath with Dead Sea salts will leave you relaxed from the inside out, and you\u2019ll sleep better than ever before.\n3. You can relieve arthritis pain.\nControlled studies conducted over the last 10 years have demonstrated that treatments with Dead Sea salts dissolved in regular bath water have a positive effect on osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and psoriatic arthritis. In a German study of patients with osteoarthritis, soft tissue swelling, pain, and range of motion improved significantly after two weeks of soaking in a Dead Sea salt bath for 20 minutes a day.\n4. You'll improve psoriasis.\nMultiple studies have shown that people who suffer from psoriasis improve with regular Dead Sea salt baths. One study looked at 50 patients who were treated for 3-4 weeks, taking 3-4 baths each week. In as little as one week, many patients treated with a 10% salt concentration in their baths experienced marked improvement, including relief from itching and skin scaling.\n5. Goodbye eczema!\nA 2005 study out of Germany found that patients with eczema/atopic dermatitis benefitted greatly from bathing in a Dead Sea salt solution. Patients with active eczema soaked one arm in a Dead Sea salt solution and their other arm in tap water for 15 minutes a day for 6 weeks. Soaking in the Dead Sea salt solution significantly improved skin barrier function, hydration, and inflammation compared with the tap water-treated side.\nThe benefits of Dead Sea salts don\u2019t stop there. Soaking in this mineral-rich salt does wonders for your body. Skin problems, such as rashes, sores, hives, and itching, can be treated by soaking in a hot bath filled with these amazing salts. Dead Sea salts contain large amounts of magnesium and bromide, which cleanse and disinfect your skin, making you less susceptible to skin-related allergies. It also treats acne, dermatitis, dandruff, scabies and seborrhea. Dead Sea salts are also effective in combating hair loss, water retention, and cellulite.",

Second place went to twenty-year-old Thomas Morris from Integral, a student at South Birmingham College. In third place was Pauline McAfee, 21, who studies at Eastleigh College and is employed by Kooltech.\nThe event is part of the nationwide SkillM&E competitions, organised by SummitSkills, the sector skills council for building services engineering. The second SkillFRIDGE semi-final will take place at Gateshead College on 30 May. The highest-scoring competitors from the semi-finals go on to compete in the UK-wide finals of SkillFRIDGE which will take place at The Skills Show in November at the NEC, Birmingham.\nLuke said: \u201cI knew this was going to be difficult but didn\u2019t expect the competition to be as hard as it was. Having to complete a complicated task in the time allowed really piles the pressure on but you have to step up to the challenge.\nI had to draw on everything I learnt in my work experience with my employer, MacWhirter Ltd, and through my training with Cardiff and Vale College. I need to thank them, particularly my tutor Gareth Ellaway, for how well they obviously prepared me.\u201d\nNeil Collishaw, head of skills competitions and awards at organisers SummitSkills, said: \u201cCongratulations to Paul and well done to all the competitors. They were presented with a difficult task, but rose to challenge and the judges were impressed with the level of skill they showed.\u201d Contestants had six hours to install a wiring circuit including a clock, thermostat, dual HP/LP switch, terminal box and isolator. Their work had to be completed within the time limit, safely and to recognised industry standards, with a very small tolerance for any errors.\nThese competitions are the feeder route for competitors to potentially go forward and represent their country at the biennial WorldSkills competition \u2013 the world\u2019s largest skills competition.

Yet little is known about whether exposure to violence impacts offenders\u2019 adjustment to incarceration. Using a nationally representative sample of inmates housed in secure confinement facilities, we examine the relative effects of exposure to different types of violence prior to incarceration (e.g., physical assault, sexual assault, child abuse) on inmate maladjustment. Results indicate that exposure to violence prior to incarceration influences individuals\u2019 odds of maladjustment during imprisonment, and that abuse as a child and physical victimization by a nonstranger as an adult are particularly robust predictors of maladjustment. Implications of these findings for future research and correctional practice are discussed.\nForensic and clinical psychologists can benefit from this course. In addition, this course is appropriate for social workers and professional counselors, especially those interested in forensic psychology or those who work within the criminal justice system. This course is appropriate for intermediate and advanced level practitioners who wish to enhance their knowledge of the effects of exposure to violence on inmate maladjustment.\nAuthors: Meade and Steiner\nLearning Objectives: This course will provide the practitioner with detailed information regarding attitudes and emotions in prison inmates. Specifically, a professional will:\n\u00b7 Identify the relationship between violence prior to incarceration and inmate maladjustment.\n\u00b7 Distinguish the impact of physical assault, sexual assault and child abuse on maladjustment.\n\u00b7 Describe predictors of maladjustment in prison inmates.\nCitation: Meade and Steiner.

        "title": "MUSING WITH CECIL BUFFINGTON",
        "raw_content": "The Best Football Player That Ever Played For Jefferson High School\nOn my cecilbuffington.com web-site during 2012, there have been many comments from viewers on some of the various posts. One page that has drawn considerable interest is \u201cThe Jefferson Dragons Legends.\u201d The chart listing the top Jefferson football players and basketball players of all time invoked comments of agreement and disagreement from many of my regular site viewers.\nI have been asked on many occasions why I list 1950's Jefferson All-state halfback Jeff Davis as the \u201cBest football player that ever played for Jefferson.\u201d I don't think for one instance that anyone that ever saw Jeff play during his high school years could possibly rate any other Dragon football player above the level he performed at for four years of high school football.\nNames like Billy Ricks, Benny Tompkins, Webster Samples, Jack Kesler. Bobby Gooch, Alex Bryan, Johnny Spence, Todd Berry, Jimmy Lofton, Ronald Watson, Bob Hix, Steven Bryan and Darius Rakestraw are usually thrown out as possibly better than the 1950's running back that went on to play for Coach Bobby Dodd at Georgia Tech.\nI even had one person very succinctly ask me how I was capable of making such a judgment as to who was the best ever to wear the red and blue. My reply was simply ~ who could be a better choice to come to that conclusion than me? My rational: I first attended a Jefferson football game in 1953 when they played Commerce in Jefferson. My cousin, Tom Williamson played for Coach Davis on his second Jefferson team in 1952. I had somehow managed to talk my uncle, Ray Williamson, into letting me go to a football game in Jefferson to watch Tom play. As they both expected, I spent the entire game playing football with a group of youngsters behind the press box at old Memorial Field. We used a crushed paper cup as a football. I don't remember much about the game in that I never saw much, if any of it. By the time I was ten years old in 1955, I was able to again talk my way into being allowed to go to a Jefferson game. It was the Commerce-Jefferson game in 1955.\nBy this time, I was a big football fan that had no problem keeping my mind on the game. I began to regularly attend all Jefferson home games and as a junior and senior I played for the red and blue. This was during the 1962 and 1963 seasons.\nAfter graduation I missed several games in Jefferson before getting back into a regular attendance mode once again. In 1966, John Kesler asked me to join his chain gang crew. I became the down marker carrier for Jefferson in 1966 and never missed a Dragon home game for the next 26 years. I also followed the Dragons on the road wherever they might be playing.\nI saw all the Jefferson football player's over these years and would on many occasions walk out to the center of the field to congratulate a solid performance by a Dragon player after a game would conclude.\nEven after leaving Jefferson for eight years in 1992 due to a career job opportunity with Perdue Farms in Dothan, Alabama, I would return on many Fridays to watch the Dragons play that night. I made it a point to never miss a Commerce game. I have not missed a Commerce game since 1954.\nI don't have evidence one way or the other, but it is very possible that I have probably seen more Jefferson football games than anyone that ever lived. Certainly I would rank in the top five.\nI think I have the knowledge and comprehension to recognize the best football players I have ever seen play for Jefferson High School.\nI realize the subjectivity of stating that one individual was better than another. The times have changed. Would Jeff Davis have been a great football player in this day and time? I believe he would have been just as good as he was in late 1950's. He was 6'2\", over 200 pounds and was a state high and low hurdle champion. He had tremendous speed and was also a very good basketball and baseball player as well as a great football and track performer. He was a great all-around athlete.\nCould a youngster like Bryant Shirreffs have been as good in the 50's? Of course, he would have been even more highly acclaimed as a football player than he is today. While taking into consideration that today's athletes are much more athletic, much heavier and generally stronger and more durable due to working with weights and other training techniques, I still maintain that there were athletes of the 50's and 60's that could have been very successful in sports today. Heart had a lot to do with success those days as it does in the present era.\nI hear people talk about the heart of today's Jefferson players. While this Dragon team does play with a great deal of emotion and determination, it's not just heart that is beating teams by 30-40 points when this team takes the field. It is talent derived from skills, intensity, coaching and personal pride. To pull out close game after close game would strongly merit support for a superior, gutsy attitude from a team. That has not been the case with these Dragons. They have been dominant for the most part during the course of the season. This is a very good high school football team.\nIs it the best team Jefferson has ever had? I haven't seen any that could beat them the way they are playing at this time. We hear Coach McFerrin talk about the Dragons being under-sized. They are under-sized when going up against some of the teams they play on a week-to-week basis. But, with 230 pound linemen and even a 215 pound quarterback they are not under-sized in comparison with Jefferson teams from 30 to 50 years ago. Bryant Shirreffs weighs in at around 215 pounds. There have been many years in Jefferson history where not one player on the team weighed 215 pounds, much less the best football player on the team.\nIn answering the \"best team\" question, Yes, I honestly believe this is the best football team Jefferson has ever had. We have had teams with some outstanding individuals, even two or three on the team during the same year upon occasion. We have never had a team that has so many good football players on it at the same time. This season several Jefferson players will be strong all-state candidates after this years strong performances on the field. We could wind up with two or three all-state, all-North Georgia or certainly all-region honors. This team is that talented.\nNow, who is the best football player to ever play for Jefferson? I must admit it was hard to convince me that anyone could be better than Jeff Davis. Well, I am now convinced that Bryant Shirreffs is as good or better than Jeff was as a senior. That's saying a lot because Jeff Davis was an unbelievable football player for the Dragons. But, than again, Bryant Shirreffs has been unbelievable for the 2012 Dragons.\nI have moved the senior signal-caller to the top of my cecilbuffington.com \u201cBest football player ever at Jefferson High School\u201d after much soul searching. I don't think the Dragons could have beaten North Hall, Washington Wilkes, and of course Fitzgerald without the Jefferson signal caller. We could have lost several other games without the on-field performance of the big Jefferson quarterback.\nJeff Davis scored 23 touchdowns his senior year for the Dragons while rushing for over 1600 yards in 10 games.. He threw for 8 touchdowns and averaged over 10 tackles per game on defense. He ran back punts and kickoffs and probably carried the water bucket onto the field during timeouts. He was twice All-State and played in the prestigeous summer GHSA all-star game at Grant Field. He went on to have a very good college career with the Tech Yellow Jackets.\nIt is my belief that Shirreffs numbers will far exceed the former Dragon super-star for a season and even for a career. The one area where Shirreffs will far out-distance him in performance is that Jefferson will play for the state AA championship. That is a big plus when looking at 'The Best.\u201d\nThe fact is that both were outstanding football players that left their mark on the Jefferson football program. I was fortunate that I was able to see both perform at their best during their high school careers. It was worth the price of admission!\nJeff and Coach Davis ~ Plotting a course for success during a Dragon time-out. A familiar scene during the Davis era.\nJeff after the 1960 Dragon football banquet. Racking up the hardware.\nJeff Davis was probably the best all-around athlete that ever attended Jefferson High School. He played football, basketball, baseball, ran track and was the team medalist on the golf team. It is estimated he received 18 letters in five sports during his high school career.\nBryant Shirreffs is unquestionably the most successful quarterback to ever wear the red and blue of Jefferson High school.\nBryant was not only an exceptional passer, he was a tremendous running threat. His versatility made him a touchdown threat every time he touched the football.\nShirreffs finished his Jefferson career with staggering numbers in three seasons. He completed 397 of 625 passes (64 percent) with 52 touchdowns. He also ran for 2,028 yards and 38 touchdowns. He accounted for 7,677 yards and 90 touchdowns rushing and receiving in three seasons. The culmination of this effort was leading the 2012 Jefferson Dragons to the Class AA state Championship.",

        "raw_content": "How To Choose A Good Literature Essay Topic About Lord Of The Flies\nTopic ideas for a literature essay can come from a number of places. Some of the best ones can come about because of a particular interest in a specific area of a literary work, others come from discussions held in class, and still others come from reading other essays. When choosing a good literature essay topic about Lord of the Flies it\u2019s best to know from the start that there is no right or wrong way of doing so. But still we understand you may find coming up with your own ideas a little difficult, so here are few questions for you explore in order to generate some possibilities:\nCan you get information on your topic easily from your local public or school library?\nThe novel is a mainstay in just about every English-speaking library around the world. However, unless you have access to a university library you might have trouble locating hard copies of secondary resources such as journal articles or essays on the book. Perhaps you should first check what will be available to you before committing to any one idea.\nWhat would you like to learn more about in regards to the either the novel or its author?\nLord of the Flies has become a hugely popular novel since it was first published in 1954. However, when it first appeared it wasn\u2019t a huge success. Why do you think William Golding\u2019s first novel didn\u2019t meet critical success until later? What does it say about society at the time of its publication?\nDoes your instructor expect you to write a certain type of literature assignment?\nHave a look at the assignment prompt. Are you given a choice of topics or are you given the freedom to create your own. If you have specific prompts then it\u2019s a good idea to underline any keywords that you need to address, such as \u201cDescribe\u201d \u201cCompare and contrast\u201d or \u201cAnalyze.\u201d\nWill you be able to discuss your topic at length without running out of things to say?\nOne of the problems with choosing an idea that is too narrow is that you can quickly run out of things to say if you don\u2019t find enough resources to support your arguments. On the flip side of this you also don\u2019t want to choose an idea that is too broad because you won\u2019t be able to discuss it fully and will leave too many opening endings. Pick something more manageable; something that falls right in between too broad and too narrow.",

Concerned that women\u2019s products were given little support and consequently failed, she offered to team up with manufacturers and take over the marketing for individual drugs. It seems like a simple idea, but it was considered revolutionary at the time, when the industry was dominated by risk-averse behemoths. Berry actually dealt with outright ridicule during her initial contact with drug manufacturers. Still, she hung in there and has boosted several products, from infertility treatments to pre-natal Down\u2019s syndrome tests. The company has grown steadily, making over $10 million in sales last year.\nNaysayers had also fingered her reluctance to leave Calgary as a potential pitfall. \u201cEveryone told me I had to move east when I started.

Good ideas can fly anywhere.\u201d In fact, Berry maintains that being Calgary-based has helped her success. \u201cWestern Canada \u2013 especially Calgary \u2013 is very progressive. We are willing to push the envelope. Doctors here want to support a company that is from here.\u201d\nNot one to rest on her laurels, Berry\u2019s company has moved into women\u2019s well-ness with a line that features probiotics, vitamins, and supplements.\n\u201cIt fits with our corporate philosophy,\u201d explains Berry. \u201cWomen\u2019s health solutions don\u2019t always have to be conventional medical choices.\u201d\nTheir new star product is Fermalac vaginal, a probiotic \u2013 \u201cgood\u201d bacteria \u2013 that counteracts the nasty bugs that cause recurrent vaginal infections, a problem that can be notoriously hard to treat.

        "raw_content": "Report by Rebecca Guy\nInternational Swim Meeting Berlin, Germany\nThis past weekend (4-6th March) COMAST\u2019s beacon squad travelled to Berlin for the first of two consecutive weekends of racing. The squad have enjoyed racing at the International Swim Meet Berlin for the past two years, this year was no different. With being only a handful of weeks out of Olympic Trials, Berlin was a crucial dress rehearsal for the group. Whilst the meet was not a target in terms of setting down times, it was important for general race preparation routines. Considerable positives have been taken away, in addition to, as is ever the case, lessons to be learnt and built upon in the coming weeks.\nCertainly, it can be said that Jessica Fullalove was one of the female stars of the competition. Fullalove was ranked first in the overall female Fina point\u2019s competition, broke two meet records (50m and 100m Backstroke)and comfortable won Gold in all three of the backstroke battles. Fullalove was right on her PB in the 100m (60.34) with an impressive swim that no other backstroker could contend with! Sam Horrocks also medalled in all of his events. Throughout the weekend Horrocks had some exciting races with multiple Olympic medallist L\u00e1szl\u00f3 Cseh. Horrocks achieved Silver in the 100m Butterfly (54.44), Bronze in the 50m (24.86) and Bronze in the 200m (2.02.59). Thomas Paine also swam the butterfly events, Paine came 5th in the 200m (2.04.80). Paine additionally had a solid performance in the 200m IM to earn himself a Bronze (2.07.84). Butterfly buddy Emma Smithurst won the 200m by a massive 6 seconds (2.13.73), no one can compete with this powerhouse! Smithurst also medalled in the 100m, a Silver and a textile PB (1.00.50).i\nAs for the distance events, Ashley Hogg placed 2nd in his age category in the 400m IM (4.39.08) and came 3rd (over-all) in the 1500m (16.23.99), his last race of a long weekend! Our breastroke boy Christopher Steeplescame 6th in the overall men\u2019s Fina points table. Steeples had some close races to earn himself Silver in the 100m (1.02.91), 5th in the 200m (2.02.59) and Silver in the final race of the meet, the 50m in 28.59, just 0.03 off Gold! Last but by no means least, the freestyle sprint ladies brought home some metal too. Jessica Lloyd won the B-final of the 100m freestyle in her fastest swim this season (58.37) and came 8th in the A-final of the 50m (26.85). In the same events Rebecca Guy came a close 3rd in the 100m A-final, just 0.17 off the gold (56.10). In the 50m she again was 3rd and in the 200m another very close Silver in 2.03.14. Guy was 6th in the overall female Fina points competition.\nThe squad have a mere few days of training until they are back into race routine with the Edinburgh International this weekend. This will be the last full weekend of racing before the British Championships in Glasgow next month.\nFor full ISM Berlin results: http://www.ism-germany.com/?page_id=18#Live-Result",

The dual-Canadian-U.S. citizen was arrested last year in Canada and extradited in January to face federal charges in New York.\nDavid agreed to forfeit $2.5 million when he pleaded guilty to conspiracy and wire fraud charges in April. He has not yet been sentenced.\nThe disciplinary committee of the First Department, Appellate Division, disbarred him retroactively to April, according to a decision released Thursday.\nProsecutors said David and others charged up to $30,000 to file fake employment letters on behalf of illegal immigrants, beginning in 1996.\nIn 2003, writing under the name Earl Avraham David, he wrote \"Code of the Heart,\" a treatise on Hebrew numerology that claimed to reveal predictions of the future based on a hidden code in the Bible.\nProsecutors said he used a bank account in the name of the book to continue to profit from the fraud.\nDavid, whose firm prosecutors said netted millions of dollars from the fraud, was suspended from practicing law in 2004. But prosecutors said he continued to run the scheme, even after fleeing to Canada, where he became a regular member of a small Orthodox temple in Toronto.\nDavid had previously participated in a separate securities fraud, money-laundering and bribery scheme in the early 1990s but agreed at the time to testify for the prosecution, helping the Securities and Exchange Commission and criminal authorities convict nearly 40 defendants.\nHe was suspended for 15 months for that conduct, after a panel of judges at the First Department credited him with his efforts on behalf of the government, even as he had already begun operating the immigration scheme, prosecutors said.\nDavid did not oppose the disbarment, according to his lawyer, Avraham Moskowitz.\nhttp://www.haaretz.com/jewish-world/jewish-world-news/lawyer-turned-rabbi-disbarred-after-admitting-to-massive-fraud-1.476478",

There real surprising part is, it's only happened six time before; And all those within the past 52 years.\nAccording to the Detroit Free-Press, it took MSU 110 years to cancel classes for the first time, (January 27th, 1967) almost 52 years to the day. This same blizzard is better known in the Midwest as the great Chicago blizzard, and it paralyzed that city for a week.\nThem came a freak storm in April of 1975; and if you drove maybe 150 miles south, you could find beautiful spring-like weather. After that the great blizzard of 1978, followed by an extreme cold snap in January of 1994, and most recently, two times in this decade.\nBut here's the kicker to the story: while classes are cancelled, as of early Tuesday afternoon, the school is still open and faculty and staff are expected to be on time and at the their posts.\nFiled Under: Michigan State University\nCategories: Michigan News, School",

There are many ways into this accelerator, indeed there are other accelerators, half-forgotten, buried deep under CERN itself. A discovery I made underneath CERN was not in the tunnels of the Large Hadron Collider, but in the CERN archives. In mouldering fragments of film and photographs that once won Nobel prizes, I discovered other dimensions to the reductive empirical surface of CERN. Revealed through such ephemera are the trials and tensions of those who first probed the subatomic depths of the universe. As Dadaist and physicist Paul Feyerabend stated, science is full of chance, complexity, and is as colourful as the characters involved in its development. In the chance collisions of cinematic CERN ephemera, different tensions are produced, a new energy is released from the obsolete experiments, and other potential universes emerge for a moment between the frames of discarded documentary footage.\n\"When Worlds Collide\" premieres at Intersections, an evening at the Leonardo Convening on November 3rd!",

        "raw_content": "The CODEL program can be completed in three years. Students will attend an intensive Summer Residency each of the three summers they are enrolled in the program (in the range of 4-5 days per residency.\nDuring Summer Residency Weeks, students and faculty will live in dormitory housing or local lodging on or near the CSU Channel Islands or Fresno State campuses and engage together in community-building, orientation, advising and coursework activities.\nYou are expected to arrive at either the CSU Channel Islands or Fresno State campus for Summer Residency Week on the evening before the week gets underway. Travel directions and a map of the campus will be sent to you in advance of your Summer Residency Week. It is expected that everyone will utilize the lodging on campus in the first summer, as we are not only beginning our studies, but also building cohort camaraderie during the limited days we have everyone together in person. That is also the reason we ask that no family members accompany you to the residency week, as we want to focus our total time on preparing you for your studies, CODEL protocols, program resources and allow for conversations with CODEL faculty and staff.\nA detailed agenda for the week will be provided in advance of the Summer Residency, and various sessions and activities will occur each day from 8:00 am to approximately 8:00 pm on Monday through Thursday of the week. Our schedule on Fridays, will be from 8:00 am to approximately 4:00 pm. For those who are flying to Southern California for the Summer Residency week at CSU Channel Islands, please allow at least 90 minutes travel time to either Burbank (Bob Hope Airport) or Los Angeles (LAX) from CSU Channel Islands. Amtrak service is available to Camarillo and there is bus service from the train station in Camarillo to CSU Channel Islands (though that bus service may be limited on Sunday). The Fresno State campus is only 15 minutes from the Fresno-Yosemite International Airport.\nThe meals for the Summer Residency Weeks will be provided at the campus dining hall facilities for breakfast, lunch and dinner. An exception will be for a special celebration dinner occurring on the Thursday evening at each Summer Residency Week. Please advise our staff of any dietary restrictions. The cost for lodging and meals for an entire Summer Residency week will typically be $500 to $750 and is subject to change.",

For other uses, see Georgia.\nGeorgia State University (commonly referred to as Georgia State, State, or GSU) is a public research university in downtown Atlanta, Georgia, United States.[5] Founded in 1913, it is one of the University System of Georgia's four research universities. It is also the largest institution of higher education based in Georgia and is in the top 10 in the nation with a total student population around 52,000 including approximately 33,000 graduate and undergraduate students at the main campus downtown as of 2018[update].[6]\nVeritas valet et vincet (Latin)\nTruth is Powerful and Will Conquer[1]\nMark P.

GSU has an economic impact on the Atlanta economy of more than $1.4 billion annually.[13]\nThe Georgia State Panthers represent the NCAA Division I sports teams of Georgia State University. The university's athletic teams (except beach volleyball) are members of the Sun Belt Conference, of which Georgia State is a charter member.\nU.S. News University Rankings\nRanking[28]\nBest Undergraduate Teaching 2\nHigh School Counselor Rankings 148\nMost Innovative Schools 2\nTop Public Schools 100\nBusiness: Insurance 3\nBusiness: Management Information Systems 9\nBusiness: Real Estate 10\nU.S. News Graduate School Rankings\nEducation: Best Online Graduate Education Programs 46\nLaw: Health Care Law 3\nLaw: Part-time Law 10\nNursing: Doctor of Nursing Practice 132\nNursing: Master's 117\nPublic Affairs: Local Government Management 8\nPublic Affairs: Nonprofit Management 5\nPublic Affairs: Public Finance and Budgeting 8\nPublic Affairs: Public Management and Leadership 22\nPublic Affairs: Public Policy Analysis 29\nPublic Affairs: Urban Policy 3\nRehabilitation Counseling 50\nU.S. News Global Rankings\nEconomics and Business 87\nNeuroscience Behavior 370\nSocial Sciences and Public Health 177\nSpace Science 196\nInitially intended as a night school, Georgia State University was established in 1913 as the Georgia School of Technology's Evening School of Commerce.[31] A reorganization of the University System of Georgia in the 1930s led to the school becoming the Atlanta Extension Center of the University System of Georgia and allowed night students to earn degrees from several colleges in the University System.[32] During this time, the school was divided into two divisions: Georgia Evening College and Atlanta Junior College.[33] In September 1947, the school became affiliated with the University of Georgia and was named the Atlanta Division of the University of Georgia.[34]\nFor its first four decades, the school was treated as an offsite department of its parent institution, Georgia Tech, until 1947, and UGA after 1947. Accordingly, its chief executive was called a director.[35] However, in 1955, the Board of Regents made it an autonomous four-year college under the name Georgia State College of Business Administration.[36] Walter Sparks, who had served as director since 1927, became the newly autonomous institution's first president. In 1961, other programs at the school had grown large enough that the name was shortened to Georgia State College.[35] It became Georgia State University in 1969.[37]\nIn 1995, the Georgia Board of Regents accorded Georgia State \"research university\" status, joining the Georgia Institute of Technology, the University of Georgia, and Augusta University.[38][39]\nView of (from L-R) the Sports Arena and Library South on Decatur Street\nThe first African-American student became enrolled at Georgia State in 1962, a year after the integration of the University of Georgia and Georgia Tech.[40][41] Annette Lucille Hall was a Lithonia social studies teacher who enrolled in the course of the Institute on Americanism and Communism, a course required for all Georgia social studies teachers.[42]\nThe Peachtree Road Race was founded in 1970 by Georgia State cross-country coach and dean of men Tim Singleton, heading it in its first six years before turning it over to the Atlanta Track Club.[43]\nCampus expansionEdit\nOver its 100-plus year history, Georgia State's growth has required the acquisition and construction of more space to suit its needs. During the late 1960s and early 1970s, numerous buildings were constructed as part of a major urban renewal project, such as the Pullen Library in 1966, Classroom South in 1968, the expansion of the Pullen Library in 1968, the Arts and Humanities Building in 1970, the 10-story General Classroom Building in 1971 (now called Langdale Hall), the Sports Arena in 1973, and the 12-story Urban Life Building in 1974.[44] In addition, a raised platform and walkway system was constructed to connect these buildings with each other over Decatur Street and various parking structures.[45]\nIn the 1980s, another round of expansion took place with the acquisition of the former Atlanta Municipal Auditorium in 1979,[46] which was subsequently converted into Alumni Hall in 1982 and then to Dahlberg Hall in 2010,[47] and currently houses Georgia State's administrative offices.[48] That same year, the College of Law was founded in the Urban Life Building,[49] and the Title Building on Decatur Street was acquired and converted into the College of Education's headquarters and classroom space.[50] In 1988, the nine-story Library South was constructed on the south side of Decatur Street, which was connected to the Pullen Library via a three-story high foot bridge (officially referred to as a \"link\") and effectively doubled the library's space.[51]\nGeorgia State continued this growth into the 1990s, with the expansion of Alumni Hall in 1991,[52] the opening of the Natural Science Center in 1992,[53] and the acquisition of the former C&S Bank Building on Marietta Street in 1993, which is now the home of the Robinson College of Business.[52] Georgia State's first move into the Fairlie-Poplar district was the acquisition and renovation of the Standard Building, the Haas-Howell Building, and the Rialto Theater in 1996.[52] The Standard and Haas-Howell buildings house classrooms, offices, and practice spaces for the School of Music, and the Rialto is home to Georgia State's Jazz Studies program and an 833-seat theater.[54] In 1998, the Student Center was expanded toward Gilmer Street[52] and provided a new 400-seat auditorium and space for exhibitions and offices for student clubs.[55] A new Student Recreation Center opened on the corner of Piedmont Avenue and Gilmer Street in 2001.[52] In 2002, the five-story Helen M. Aderhold Learning Center opened on Luckie Street[56] amid controversy over the demolition of historical buildings on its block.[57] Most recently, in 2004, the Andrew Young School of Policy Studies was moved to the former Wachovia Bank Building at Five Points.[58]\nAfter the release of the 2006 master plan update, a host of new building activity occurred on campus. A $20 million refurbishment to the Pullen Library complex was completed during the 2006-07 school year.[59] Multiple new units of on-campus housing were built, including the 2,000 bed University Commons in 2007, a new dormitory named Freshman Hall (later renamed Patton Hall) in 2009 and a conversion of a former Wyndham Garden Hotel and a Baymont Inn & Suites into a new 1,100 occupancy dormitory named Piedmont North.[52][60][61] New Greek housing was built in 2010 along Edgewood Avenue.[52] The Citizens Trust Building on Piedmont Avenue was purchased by the university to make room for offices and student services in 2007.[52] The Parker H. Petit Science Center was completed in 2010, opening up state of the art science laboratories and teaching space.[52] In 2013, Georgia State started operating from the original home of the Trust Company of Georgia and the SunTrust Bank, the 25 Park Place Building, a 26-floor skyscraper located adjacent to Woodruff Park in the heart of downtown Atlanta. The building currently houses many academic units of the College of Arts and Sciences, including the Dean's Office, the University Advisement Center, and facilities of the School of Public Health. In May 2015, the College of Law was moved to its new building at 89 Park Place after the land was donated to the university.[52][62]\nThe newest incarnation of the university's strategic plan gives an outline for the university's growth from 2011 until 2016 and a brief overview that will be amended for up to 2021.[63] In 2016, an extension to the Petit Science Center was completed. Plans exist for the building of graduate student housing behind the center.[63]\nOn May 31, 2012, the athletics department released a new facilities master plan.[64] The plan includes upgrades and renovations to the GSU Sports Arena[65] including new outdoor sand volleyball courts (which have since been completed)[66] as well as plans to build new baseball, softball, and soccer stadiums.[67][68][69] These would replace the current stadiums in Panthersville. In May 2014, the university announced its intentions to pursue the 77-acre Turner Field site once the Atlanta Braves Major League Baseball club moves into SunTrust Park in 2017. The university intends to retrofit Turner Field into a 30,000 seat open-air football stadium and build a new baseball field on the site of the former Atlanta\u2013Fulton County Stadium, incorporating the wall where Hank Aaron hit his record-breaking 715th home run. Additional retail and student housing development is also planned for the parking areas surrounding Turner Field.[70]\nOn December 21, 2015, the Atlanta Fulton County Recreation Authority announced that Georgia State's bid to redevelop Turner Field had been accepted.[71] On August 18, 2016, Georgia State and the Atlanta-Fulton County Recreation Authority reached a tentative purchase agreement for Turner Field, and the purchase and redevelopment plan was approved by the Board of Regents on November 9, 2016.[72][73] On January 5, 2017, Georgia State's acquisition of Turner Field, since renamed Georgia State Stadium, was officially closed, with the stadium conversion project beginning in February 2017.[74] Georgia State Stadium hosted its first game on August 31, 2017.[75]\nConsolidation with Georgia Perimeter CollegeEdit\nOn January 5, 2015, news broke that Georgia State and Georgia Perimeter College would merge.[76] Over a year later, the Board of Regents of the University System of Georgia approved the merger of Georgia State University and Georgia Perimeter College, a 2-year college with five campuses. The board also announced that the current president of Georgia State, Dr. Mark Becker, would remain the president of the combined university, which retained the name Georgia State University.[77] The merger created the largest university in the state of Georgia at about 52,000 students.[78]\nThe school's coat of arms is registered in the College of Arms in London.[79] The Latin motto means, \"Truth is strong and will conquer\" (or alternatively, \"Truth is valuable and shall overcome\"). The panther holds the symbol of education, with the quill in red to symbolize the fire in Atlanta's city emblem. The gold coin indicates the university's beginnings as a business school. The crown august is a representation of the Stone Mountain granite. The center flame is an eternal flame in honor of the first president, George Sparks, and represents flames of scholarship and the burning of Atlanta.[80]\nGSU College of Law\nThe President of Georgia State University (currently Mark P. Becker)[81] is the head administrator and is appointed and overseen by the Georgia Board of Regents.\nThe university is composed of 11 colleges (although those divisions use \"college\", \"school\", or \"institute\", those titles do not indicate any distinction between them):\nByrdine F. Lewis College of Nursing and Health Professions\nPerimeter College\u2020\n\u2020 Unlike the other colleges that make up the university, students accepted to Perimeter College only have access to the five suburban campuses associated with that college and not the main campus. A Perimeter College student must apply for acceptance to the main downtown campus for access to bachelor's degrees.[82]\nView of (from L-R) the Student Center, Urban Life Building, and University Center\nFrom Georgia State's days as a single building night school into the university it is today, Georgia State has built itself into the heart of urban Downtown Atlanta. Whereas the school's nickname\u2014dating from the early 1960s\u2014of \"the Concrete Campus\" was once a source of mild embarrassment,[83] the name has been embraced by the university community.[84] The university embraced the slogan, \"a part of the city, not apart from the city\" as its growth into Downtown Atlanta increased.[85] This has led to the widening of sidewalks around the campus, and a focus on Decatur Street as becoming the \"Main Street\" of the campus.[86]\nSparks HallEdit\nSparks Hall was the first building designed and built specifically for the school. It was designed by the Atlanta architectural firm of Cooper, Barrett, Skinner, Woodbury, and Cooper. Construction took place between 1952 and 1955 and cost about $2 million. The first classes were held in the building on April 21, 1955. On June 8, 1960, the building was named for George McIntosh Sparks, former president of the college.[87] Currently, the building houses Undergraduate Admissions, the Student Advisement Center, and the One Stop Shop. It also primarily houses classrooms and computer laboratory space.\nAfter the 1996 Summer Olympics were held in Atlanta, Georgia State acquired its first on-campus dormitories in the 2,000-bed Olympic Village housing complex located at the southeast corner of Centennial Olympic Park Drive (formerly Techwood Drive) and North Avenue that was used to board Olympic athletes during the Games.[88] The Village was later sold to the Georgia Institute of Technology and renamed the North Avenue Apartments.[89]\nUniversity LoftsEdit\nIn August 2002,[52] the 450-bed University Lofts opened at the corner of Edgewood Avenue and Courtland Street on the northeast side of campus as housing for undergraduate students and student athletes, as well as students with families and graduate students.[90] In 2008, the Lofts were converted into multiperson dormitories as well as apartment style dorms, raising the bed count to its current number of 550 residents in 231 apartments.[91]\nUniversity CommonsEdit\nOn August 10, 2007, Georgia State opened the University Commons, a $165 million complex housing 1,992 students, occupying a city block bounded by Ellis Street, Piedmont Avenue, John Wesley Dobbs Avenue and Jesse Hill Jr. Drive.[92] A GSU economics professor estimated the new dorm could have an economic impact of $10\u201312 million on downtown Atlanta.[92] The university plans to ultimately accommodate 20% of its enrollment in housing near the downtown campus.[92] With the planned opening of University Commons, it was announced on March 7, 2007 that the Georgia Institute of Technology was acquiring the Olympic Village housing, which is located across North Avenue from the Institute.[93] In 2011, the Commons were voted \"best overall dorms in the country\" by DormSplash.com.[94] This was followed in 2012 by The Fiscal Times rating the Commons as some of the most luxurious dormitories in the country, rated 3rd most \"insanely luxurious.\"[95]\nPatton HallEdit\nIn the fall of 2009, Georgia State opened a 325-bed residence hall exclusively for freshman students, originally named Freshman Hall. Renamed Patton Hall in 2013 after former Georgia State President Carl Patton,[96][97] the dorms are located on the corner of Piedmont and Edgewood Avenues, approximately 0.2 miles from the heart of GSU's campus.[98] The facility includes a 24/4.5 dining hall offering breakfast, lunch, and dinner in a buffet style.[99] The dining hall is open to all Georgia State students, and all residents of Patton Hall are required to have meal plans for the dining hall.[100]\nGreek housingEdit\nFor the 2010 academic year, Georgia State opened its Greek Housing facility, located adjacent to Patton Hall on Edgewood Avenue.[52] Each townhome in the complex features a chapter room, kitchen, and bedrooms ranging from 9-19 beds.[101]\nPiedmont NorthEdit\nMost recently, following its plan for expansion, Georgia State acquired two hotels in downtown Atlanta, the Wyndham Garden Hotel and Baymont Inn and Suites on Piedmont Avenue.[61] The hotels and grounds have been renovated and changed into dorms, Piedmont North Buildings A and B, contributing to the university's transformation into a more traditional campus.[102] The complex now includes living and study space for approximately 1,100 students, as well as greenspace, recreational areas, and a brand new 12,000-square-foot (1,100 m2) dining hall, the Piedmont North Dining Hall.[60]\nPiedmont CentralEdit\nOn May 14, 2014, ground was broken on a new, 1,152 bed residence hall named Piedmont Central.[103] The hall received its first residence in fall semester of 2016.[103] The facility includes a 15,000 square foot dining facility, conference rooms, communal kitchens, study rooms, and laundry facilities.[104]\nA Georgia State police vehicle on campus in Atlanta\nCampus securityEdit\nThe department is composed of more than 160 state-sworn police officers, 60 full-time security guards, 10 part-time security guards, 16 communications dispatchers and eight staff members, making it the largest campus law enforcement agency in Georgia.[105]\nPerimeter CollegeEdit\nPerimeter College consists of five different campuses around the Metro Atlanta region. Campuses in Alpharetta, Clarkston, Decatur, Dunwoody, and Newton County each offer different amenities. The Alpharetta campus consists of two buildings, with students enrolled at that campus having free access to a nearby private gym, as well as access to the other Perimeter campus' amenities. The Clarkston campus is a full campus with athletic facilities, (tennis courts, soccer field, gym) and 14 buildings. The Decatur campus includes greenhouses, tennis courts, as well as six academic buildings including a Student Success Center. The Dunwoody campus includes a gym, weight room, soccer field, tennis courts, an observatory, a gazebo, and eight academic buildings. The Newton campus consists of a baseball field, a softball field, a health and recreation center, and two academic buildings.[106]\nThe Signal, GSU student newspaper\nFive organizations are a part of the office of Student Media:\nThe Signal, an award-winning daily website/weekly newspaper[107]\nGSTV, an online video organization with news, sports, and creative content produced and aired by students\nAlbum 88 radio, with nighttime broadcast on 88.5 FM and 24/7 broadcast online and on HD radio.[108]\nNew South, a national literary journal edited by graduate students\nUnderground, undergraduate arts and literature journal\nAdditional student-produced media outside of this division include:\nGSUTV, a statewide TV channel produced by students and broadcast over the GPTV Knowledge channel[109] GSU TV is offered as a practicum on the Atlanta campus.\nCreative License, an annual student-edited literature and arts publication from Perimeter College: The magazine is funded by Perimeter College's Student Activity Fee and edited under the advisement of the College's English faculty.\nFall 2018 Semester Enrollment Report: Enrollment by Self-Declared Race/Ethnicity[3]\nor Alaska Native\nor Other Pacific Islander\nRace Unknown or\nGeorgia State University is a majority-minority institution.[110] It has achieved the most ethnically diverse student population in Georgia and one of the most ethnically diverse in the nation.[111][112] In recent years, Georgia State has become the nation's leading non-profit institution to annually produce the highest number of African Americans with bachelor's degrees.[113][114]\nStudent facilitiesEdit\nStudent Recreation CenterEdit\nThe on-campus Recreation Center features racquetball courts, a squash court, a 7,000-square-foot free-weight area, an aquatic center, a 35-foot climbing wall,[115] game rooms,[116] exercise rooms, aerobics, dance, and martial arts studios, and a gymnasium containing four basketball/volleyball courts. The top level includes a running track and omni gym.[117] The aquatic center features a 9-lane lap pool, a \"leisure pool\" with vortex, a spa, and a sauna.[117] The omni gym is outfitted to allow for different sports, including badminton, basketball, fencing, arena flag football, indoor soccer, and volleyball.[118]\nIndian Creek LodgeEdit\nLand in Indian Creek was purchased by the university in 1938, and in 1974 operation of the swimming pool in the facility was taken over by Recreation Services.[117] Tennis courts, Indian Creek Lodge, and the rest of the 15.5 acres were taken over by Recreation Services in 1991.[117]\nPanthersvilleEdit\nThe university's outdoor intramural fields are currently located in Panthersville, a suburb of Atlanta.[117] These facilities include two large lighted fields, a sundeck, restrooms, and parking.[117] New land has been purchased by the university east of the University Commons to make room for new intramural fields.[52]\nCinefestEdit\nGeorgia State University operates Cinefest Film Theater, a student-run movie theater in the school's University Center.[119] Cinefest exhibits a wide array of motion pictures including international cinema, art house films, revival house movies, and second-run Hollywood fare. Cinefest also has had numerous classic 35-mm film festivals including the Film Fatale Film Festival, and the Summer Camp Nightmare Festival. These festivals often feature rare prints that cannot be seen anywhere else.[120] It has played host to various special events including screening films for The Atlanta Underground Film Festival, the Atlanta Asian Film Festival, the Atlanta Philosophy Film Festival, and DragonCon.[121] The theatre has 135 seats and is free to all Georgia State students, or $3 before 5 pm and $5 after 5 pm.[122] The theatre was first named Cinefest in 1991, but was known as the Lyceum Film Series.[122]\nPanther DiningEdit\nTwo dining halls are at Georgia State, one in Freshman Hall and another in Piedmont North dorms.[60][99] In addition to these, food courts are in the University Center and in the Student Center, as well as restaurants in the bottom of Kell Hall.[123]\nCampus transportationEdit\nPanther ExpressEdit\nGSU Panther Express\nThe university provides shuttles circulating around campus following four different routes.[124] The blue route circulates from the parking lots of Turner Field to the heart of campus with stops at Langdale Hall and Sparks Hall, and is active on weekdays from 7:00 am to 10:30 pm.[124] The red route circulates between the main campus and the Aderhold Learning Center with stops at the Arts and Humanities building and at the Rialto Center/Aderhold. It is active on weekdays from 7:00 am to 12:00 am.[124] The green route is active from 7:00 am to 12:00 am on weekdays with stops at the Student Center, the University Commons, and Piedmont North.[124] The purple route is active on weekends from 5:00 pm to 12:00 am with stops at the Arts and Humanities building, the Student Center, the University Commons, Piedmont North, and the Rialto Center/Aderhold.\nMARTAEdit\nAtlanta's mass transit system, MARTA, provides Georgia State students with access to the system at a reduced rate when bought through the university.[125] Georgia State is served by three stations; the Georgia State Station next to the Petit Science Center on the Blue and Green lines, Five Points Station on the Red, Gold, Blue, and Green lines with accommodations for both the Aderhold Learning Center and main campus, and the Peachtree Center Station on the Red and Gold lines, giving access to the Aderhold Learning Center, the University Commons, and the Piedmont North dormitories.[126]\nStreetcarEdit\nIn December 2014, streetcars returned to Atlanta for the first time in 60 years. The current route transverses the campus along Edgewood and Auburn Aves. It connects the main campus to the Aderhold building and Rialto Theater in Fairlie-Poplar, as well as the Sweet Auburn Curb Market.\nParkingEdit\nThe university has numerous parking locations, with restrictions in some to faculty and staff.[127] Parking attendants are only on duty from 6:30 am to 10 pm on weekdays, after which parking permits must be used.[127] Some dormitories have built-in parking such as Piedmont North and the University Commons, but parking in these dorms is restricted to students living in them.[128][129] The University Lofts allow access to permit holders who are primarily residents of the Lofts, the Greek Housing, and Patton Hall.[130] It also allows access to some nonresident holders, faculty, and staff.[130] The G Deck is reserved for use by Georgia State faculty and staff, although on days in which the Sports Arena is in use, it becomes visitor parking for that game or event.[131][132] The K and T Decks are available for students using cash or a budget card with a valid student parking permit.[133][134] The N and S decks are for general parking, while the M Deck is reserved for students with a lottery-won permit.[135]\nGeorgia State students are allowed access to the Georgia State Stadium parking lots just south of campus at the former site of Turner Field, although access to those lots is limited to weekdays between 7:00 am and 11:00 pm.[136] During the Atlanta Braves' tenure at Turner Field, those times were further limited on home game days.[136] With the conversion of the Turner Field site from a professional baseball venue to GSU's football venue, it is expected that parking restrictions beyond the regular hours will be limited to days of Panthers home games. Due to its distance from the university, shuttle services run from the parking to the main campus.[124]\nRialto CenterEdit\nGeorgia State University makes notable contributions to the cultural vitality of the downtown Atlanta community. A prominent cultural stage is the Rialto Center for the Arts, an 833-seat performing-arts venue located in the heart of the Fairlie-Poplar district in downtown Atlanta. The venue is home to the Rialto Series, presenting the best of national and international jazz, world music, and dance; School of Music performances; the Atlanta Film Festival, and many others. The School of Music holds concerts featuring faculty, students, and guest performers in the Kopleff Recital Hall throughout the year. In addition, the university's Art Galleries, based in the Ernest G. Welch School of Art and Design, feature special exhibitions, student and faculty works, and visiting artist collections.\nIn 2010, Georgia State University established its first ever marching band. The marching band began its inaugural season in the fall of 2010. 150 students successfully auditioned for the band. In its first year, the band performed at all home football games, a high school marching band exhibition, and (most notably) during the Georgia State vs. Alabama football game on November 18, 2010, in Tuscaloosa. The band is a drum corps style unit that focuses on precision musicality and movement. Like most ensembles, the band features a colorguard section, but in a departure from typical marching bands, the traditional auxiliary front sideline percussion section, or pit, has been replaced by a four-piece rock band consisting of a lead guitar, bass guitar, drum set, and keyboard synthesizer. Just after its third full season, the Georgia State University Marching Band participated in the Presidential Inauguration Parade in January 2013. In the fall of 2014, the Georgia State marching band performed at the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade.\nDAELEdit\nThe Digital Arts and Entertainment Laboratory (DAEL), housed in the Department of Communication, offers equipment and facilities for digital media research and production. The DAEL also holds a media festival featuring different productions and media produced by students.[137]\nDigital AquariumEdit\nGeorgia State hosts a multimedia lab allowing students access to multimedia-editing workstations, professional software, technology training workshops, and equipment that can be checked out.[138] The facility also hosts a pro-level recording studio featuring full soundproofing, a dual-screened Mac Pro, a keyboard, and two microphones, although the area is set up to allow for students to bring their own equipment.[139]\nGSU is one of four research universities in the University System of Georgia. More than 250 fields of study are offered through some 52 accredited degree programs at the bachelor's, master's, specialist, and doctoral levels. Students may enroll in day or evening classes and in part-time or full-time study. In 2011, $58,492,317 in external research funding was received by Georgia State investigators.[140] In 2013, Georgia State University was one of six universities in the nation and the only in Georgia to be named a \"Next Generation University\" by the New America Foundation for its proven commitment to high-quality research and the success of its ethnically diverse student body.[141] Georgia State University's research expenditures of over $200 million for the 2017 fiscal year ranked first in the nation among universities without an engineering or medical school.[8]\nView of the plaza with Library North, Library South, and the Classroom South Building in the background\nGeorgia State houses three university libraries. Additionally, many academic departments provide libraries for their students. The University Library (formerly known as the William Russell Pullen Library), housed in Library North and Library South, contains more than 1.4 million volumes, including 8,000 active serials and nearly 22,000 media materials. The library provides access to numerous electronic periodical and resource indexes (many with full text), more than14,000 electronic journals, and about 30,000 electronic books. It is also a Federal Document Depository and holds more than 820,000 government documents with electronic access to many additional titles.[142] From December 2015 through February 2016, the University Library received significant media attention for several armed robberies and other crimes against GSU students within the facility.[143]\nSURAgridEdit\nOn August 31, 2006, Georgia State announced that it would be participating in a supercomputing grid with the installation of an IBM P575 Supercomputer in its Network Operations Center. Through an initiative known as SURAGrid, eventually 24 universities in 15 states throughout the Southeast United States will form the research backbone and at its peak, the network will be able to perform over 10 trillion calculations per second. University of Georgia and Kennesaw State University are also part of the SURAGrid.[144]\nPhysics and astronomyEdit\nPhysics at Georgia State is split between physics and astronomy. Areas of research range from biophysics, condensed matter physics, neurophysics, nuclear physics, and physics education and innovative instruction. The astronomy program uses many observatories, including the Lowell Observatory in Flagstaff, Arizona and the Small and Moderate Aperture Research Telescope System (or SMARTS) in Chile, and the CHARA array on Mount Wilson Observatory in Los Angeles County, California, Hard Labor Creek Observatory in Rutledge, Georgia, and the Urban Life Observatory, all of which are operated by Georgia State. Astronomy is now also a partner in the Apache Point Observatory 3.5-m telescope.[145]\nBiological research at Georgia State is divided into four categories; applied and environmental microbiology (AEM), cellular molecular biology and physiology (CMBP), molecular genetics and biochemistry, and neurobiology and behavior. The AEM program concentrates on the environmental, industrial, and medical aspects of microbiology, including bioremediation, toxicology, genetics, cellular responses and natural product biosynthesis.[146][147] Cellular and molecular biology and physiology focuses on the function and regulation of eukaryotic cells and organisms, doing research including signal transduction, cancer immunology, virology, immunology, and diabetes research.[148] The MGB program ranges from lower eukaryotic programmed cell death to viral RNA replication.[149] The neurobiology and behavior program is involved in research focusing on topics such as neurobiology, behavior, hormonal action, developmental neurobiology, and vertebrate sexual plasticity, to name a few.[150]\nGeorgia State is currently the only university in the United States operating a BSL-4 lab (the highest bio-safety level) at level 4 conditions. These labs are currently used to investigate herpes B virus, hantavirus, and ebola.[151]\nResearch centersEdit\nThe College of Arts and Science is home to several centers, institutes and areas of focus, under which the departments of chemistry, biology, psychology, and other college-wide departments can collaborate on interdisciplinary subjects.[152]\nThe Language Research Center specializes in language research, with bonobos and chimpanzees. Kanzi, a male bonobo raised at the center, has become famous after learning to communicate via lexigram with his researchers.[153]\nThe Center for Neuromics promotes the study of the nervous system using informatics and computational approaches.\nThe Neuroscience Institute comprises neuroscience faculty in all departments across the College of Arts and Sciences.\nThe Center for Research on Atypical Development and Learning was founded in 1998 to stimulate basic and applied research spanning developmental, clinical, and education psychology, neuropsychology, special education, and speech-language pathology.[154]\nLikewise, several university-level institutes exist, allowing collaboration between departments throughout the university as a whole.\nThe Center for Behavioral Neuroscience is composed of more than 60 researchers over seven other Atlanta institutions, including Emory University and Georgia Tech. The institute was originally established in 1998 by a grant from the Robert W. Woodruff Foundation and expanded in November 1999 to become one of the National Science Foundation's Science and Technology Centers.[155]\nThe Center for Diagnostics and Therapeutics is housed in the Petit Science Center; the center's goals include developing highly sought-after biomarker-guided therapies and imaging agents and translating that research into clinically useful diagnostic and therapeutic agents.\nCenter for Nano-Optics\nThe Center for High Angular Resolution Astronomy at Georgia State University hosts one of the world's most powerful optical stellar interferometers, the Center for High Angular Resolution Astronomy, atop Mt. Wilson, California;[31] in 2007, this telescope array became the first to actually obtain an image the surface of another sunlike star.[156] The array is composed of multiple telescopes, each containing a light-collecting mirror 1 m in diameter. The combination of these telescopes works as a single unit, allowing for ultra-high resolution imaging.[157]\nThe Center for Neuroinflammation and Cardiometabolic Diseases focuses on how brain inflammation may contribute to a number of serious health conditions.[158]\nThe Center for Advancing Brain Imaging is a joint venture between Georgia State University and Georgia Tech providing state-of-the-art neuroimaging facilities for studying brain-behaviour relations in children and adults.[159]\nThe Institute for Biomedical Sciences operates as its own college within the university.\nThe College of Arts and Sciences also maintains several areas of focus for cross-disciplinary study:\nMolecular Basis of Disease is a program in computational biomedicine stretching over six departments and supports undergraduate and graduate research.\nBrains and Behavior promotes research broadly related to the neurosciences, sponsoring student fellowships and seeding grants for research.\nBiosensors and Diagnostics\nBiomolecular Structure and Interactions\nNew Therapeutic Agents and Approaches\nMain article: Georgia State Panthers\nSee also: Georgia Southern\u2013Georgia State rivalry\nAthletic director Cheryl Levick trades helmets with Sun Belt commissioner Karl Benson at the Georgia Dome on April 9, 2012\nThe 16 Georgia State varsity athletic teams participate in the NCAA's Division I FBS as a member of the Sun Belt Conference. The university has won conference championships in basketball (men's and women's), baseball, golf (men's and women's), softball, soccer (men's and women's), women's tennis, and beach volleyball. The beach volleyball team has been ranked in the top 10 of all programs every year since its inception in 2013.\nGeorgia State began competition in all sports in the Sun Belt Conference in 2013, although it had already played all individual sports in the Sun Belt during the 2012-13 season.[160] This marked a return to the conference that Georgia State had helped found in 1976.[161] Prior to joining the Sun Belt, GSU played in the CAA from 2005-2013, participating for only one season (2012) as a football school.[162] Prior to joining the CAA, the Panthers competed in the (then Trans America Athletic Conference, or TAAC) Atlantic Sun Conference, joining in 1983 and leaving for the CAA in 2005.\nGeorgia State University charges a fee to each student who enrolls at the school. This fee is used for athletic scholarships and other costs associated with competitive athletics. The athletic fee allows students to use their Panther Card (student identification card) for free access to athletic events.[163]\nThe Panthers' most historic rivalry is with the Georgia Southern Eagles with basketball being played between the two since 1972. However, rivalries have grown since, including with South Alabama with the two programs starting football within a year of one another and playing each other and having played one another every season since Georgia States football's inception except one.\nGSU Sports Arena, the on-campus basketball venue at GSU, was used in the 1996 Summer Olympics\nThe university also boasts several nonvarsity sports, including badminton, rowing, rugby, and wrestling [164]\n1996 Summer Olympic GamesEdit\nThe Olympic flag waves at the 1996 games\nGeorgia State University was used during the 1996 Summer Olympic Games, with the GSU Sports Arena hosting the badminton matches. Georgia State's prominent position in downtown Atlanta allowed the city to build some of its venues with adaptive reuse in mind to be used by the university.[165] The first on-campus dormitories at the university, the Village, was constructed as part of the Olympic Village to house athletes.[166] This began the metamorphosis of GSU from a commuter college to a massive urban research institute, as well as one of the largest universities in the United States.[167] Centennial Olympic Stadium, host of the opening and closing ceremonies of the Olympics, was after the games converted to Turner Field, home of MLB's Atlanta Braves. After the Braves moved to SunTrust Park in suburban Cobb County, Turner Field and the surrounding grounds were purchased by Georgia State in January 2017.[168] The university converted the stadium to a football field for the school's football team, now called Georgia State Stadium, and is building a new campus baseball stadium on the site of the former Atlanta\u2013Fulton County Stadium, and new classrooms and housing on the lot.[169]\nGeorgia State University is home to twenty-nine fraternities and sororities:[170] five of the North-American Interfraternity Conference (IFC), five of the National Panhellenic Conference (NPC), Eight of the National Pan-Hellenic Council (NPHC), and thirteen multicultural organizations operating as the Multicultural Greek Council (MGC). Georgia State added Greek Housing in 2010.\nAlumni and facultyEdit\nMain article: List of Georgia State University people\nSince its opening, Georgia State has graduated more than 227,000 alumni. Currently, an estimated 100,000 alumni live in the metro Atlanta area.\nCambridge University Press v.

        "raw_content": "By Sumie Nakayama\nSenior Advisor on Climate Change, J-POWER\nCOAL-FIRED GENERATION IN JAPAN\nHistorically, Japan\u2019s use of energy resources for power demand and supply has experienced two major changes, as depicted in Figure 1. One is the gradual reduction of oil dependence in 1970\u20132010 and the other is the dramatic disappearance of nuclear after 2011. The heavy dependence on oil (around 70%) in the 1970s risked Japan\u2019s energy security with the oil crisis. Consequently, a new and stronger energy policy was implemented to reduce dependence on oil by promoting coal, liquefied natural gas (LNG), and nuclear power. The result of this diversification reduced oil dependence from around 70% to 8% by 2010 (red bar in Figure 1). However, the major earthquake coupled with the disaster at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant in 2011 cast a huge shadow over Japan\u2019s energy scene and resulted in major changes. All 54 nuclear reactors in Japan were shut down. In 2012, Japan established a new safety institute, the Nuclear Regulation Authority (NRA), following the introduction of the most stringent new safety standards in the world, which must be implemented before a nuclear reactor can restart.\nFIGURE 1. Historical trend of Japan\u2019s power generation portfolio, 1970\u20132014, and 2030 target.1,2\nIn 2015, the Japanese government set a new energy policy that includes a 2030 energy supply-and-demand target.1 The policy was developed to balance energy security, economy, environment, and safety. The power generation national targets set for 2030 are nuclear 22%, coal 26%, LNG 27%, oil 3%, and renewables 22%. Coal-fired power will contribute 56% to the baseload, as the government aims to ensure around 60% baseload for stable supply, together with nuclear, hydropower, geothermal, and biomass.\nThe modern, efficient, and low-emission Isogo Power Station.\nTo date, restarting the existing nuclear reactors has taken longer than anticipated. With the permanent shutdown of six reactors at Fukushima Daiichi and five other older reactors, there are now 43 potential reactors that could become operational again. An assessment to meet the new nuclear standard requirements can take up to two years. The NRA has assessed 26 reactor submissions. To date, only five reactors have passed assessment. Due to the extended time it was taking to restart the reactors, several regional power utilities were encouraged to find alternatives to increase baseload power generation. In addition, ongoing deregulation of the power market has encouraged new power generators to utilize more cost-effective power sources. As a result, several new coal-fired power generation projects are being planned, with some already under construction. Figure 2 depicts the breakdown of Japan\u2019s installed power generation capacity by energy source. Coal-fired power generation capacity is 40 GW, accounting for 16% of the total.\nFIGURE 2. Power generation capacity by energy source in Japan, 2014.2\nThe main owners of Japan\u2019s coal-fired power plants are 10 regional power utilities and J-POWER. Figure 3 depicts the total coal-fired power generation capacity in Japan and the share held by different companies.\nFIGURE 3. Owners of coal-fired power plants in Japan, 2014.3\nJ-POWER was established in the 1980s as a state-owned power wholesaler and has promoted imported coal-fired power generation in accordance with government policy. It is the largest coal-fired power plant operator in Japan.\nCoal and nuclear are considered the best options for baseload power generation in Japan because it is less expensive than gas. Gas imported as LNG has a high price due to the liquefaction cost and the additional freight cost. According to the International Energy Agency, the relative price of coal to gas differs in the U.S., Europe, and Japan.4 In the U.S., coal is almost equivalent in price to gas for electricity generation, whereas the price of coal in Japan is substantially lower than gas.\nBefore the Fukushima disaster, no new coal-fired power projects had been built in Japan in the 21st century. All the environmental impact assessments (EIAs) for coal-fired power projects were rejected by the Ministry of Environment (MoE) because they would increase CO2 emissions in Japan. However, after the shutdown of all nuclear power reactors, serious concern developed about a power shortage in the Greater Tokyo area, which resulted in a call for tenders from the Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO) for 2.6-GW baseload power generation. But bidders were reluctant to make detailed bids for coal-fired projects because the MoE would block any coal project in the EIA process even if it won the tender. This obstacle concerned the Ministry of Energy, Trade and Industry (METI), which is responsible for management of energy demand and supply in Japan.\nTo eliminate concern among potential bidders about the MoE\u2019s hostility to coal-fired power generation, METI and the MoE made an agreement. If new fossil-fired power projects met two conditions, MoE would not block the project in the EIA process, so that companies could submit a tender to TEPCO without fear of being rejected. The first condition is to use the best available technologies (BAT); thus only ultra-supercritical (USC) technologies were eligible. The other condition is that the power sector established a coalition with a targeted emissions cap which is consistent with the government\u2019s 2030 energy mix and CO2 emissions targets\u2014and the CO2 emissions from the approved project must be within the cap. The MoE published the energy efficiency standard required to be met by potential bidders in a table by fuel type (coal and gas) and by plant size.5 For example, a 1000-MW coal-fired power plant must achieve 45% (LHV, gross) energy efficiency.\nCurrently, 17 GW of new coal-fired power projects are at various stages of development in Japan, ranging from the early stage of the EIA process to being constructed.6 All the large-scale projects plan to use USC technology to meet government conditions. The proposed coal-fired power projects include small power projects without USC as USC is not suitable for smaller size coal-fired power plants. As an alternative for smaller projects, co-firing of biomass fuel is used to reduce CO2 emissions.\nIn February 2016, due to the MoE\u2019s concerns about the increasing number of new projects, METI announced amendments to two existing laws. One amendment regulates power generators to achieve energy efficiency standards consistent with the 2030 national target; the other regulates power retailers in procuring a share of non-fossil power consistent with the 2030 national target.\nBoth regulations allow \u201ccollective action\u201d to achieve the goal. The 35 main players in the power sector have formed a framework to achieve the goal collectively.\nIn May 2016, the Oxford Smith School of Enterprise and Environment published a report, \u201cStranded Assets and Thermal Coal in Japan: An Analysis of Environment-Related Risk Exposure\u201d.7,8 The report concluded that the new coal fleet investment of US$6-8 billion would result in a stranded asset in 5\u201315 years. However, several of the assumptions in the report were incorrect.8 First, the number of coal-fired power projects was exaggerated; the Oxford paper assumes 28 GW while the Japanese government says a maximum of 17 GW of coal-fired power will be built. The Oxford paper also names eight new J-POWER projects: Takehara, Takasago, Nishiokinoyama, Osaki Coolgen, Kashima Power, Yokohama, Shin Yokosuka, and Yokosuka. However, three of them\u2014Yokohama, Shin Yokosuka, and Yokosuka\u2014are not J-POWER\u2019s projects.\nThe biggest problem with the Oxford paper, as noted by Professor Arima,8 is its failure to consider Japan\u2019s energy policy and 2030 national targets. It also fails to consider Japan\u2019s energy security or economy, focusing only on the environment. The study assumes that coal-fired power generation is hazardous for human beings and does not recognize that Japan requires stable and cost-effective power generation. Moreover, the new coal-fired power plants will use the most advanced clean coal technology, which will remove SOx, NOx, and particulate matter (PM) at a nearly 100% rate (depending on the coal\u2019s characteristics). CO2 emissions will also be reduced through high-efficiency plants and through use of CCS in the future.\nJapan is a world leader in USC technology for clean coal technology and continues to make further improvements through R&D. As a result, Japan has built coal-fired power plants achieving low emissions. J-POWER\u2019s Isogo Power Station demonstrates Japan\u2019s best clean coal technology, with an efficiency of 45% (LHV, gross), reduced flue gas, single-digit ppm SOx, less than 10 ppm NOx , with PM less than 5 ppm at the stack.\nInside Isogo coal-fired power plant.\nLocated in Yokohama, the second largest city in Japan by population, Isogo Power Station is only 6 km from Yokohama\u2019s city center and 30 km from central Tokyo. It is a unique, urban coal-fired power station that employs some of the most advanced clean coal technologies in the world.\nOriginally, Isogo Power Station had two 265-MW subcritical boilers. The old station started commercial operation in the 1960s, and had been supplying baseload power for more than 35 years. In 1996, the government approved a replacement plan. As a result of discussion with the buyers and Yokohama City, the new station was designed to have 2 units of 600 MW with the world\u2019s highest energy efficiency and lowest emissions for a coal-fired power station. The boilers and turbines use USC technology with a main steam temperature/pressure of 600\u00b0C/25 MPa and a reheat steam temperature of 610\u00b0C. The plant uses a dry-type DeSOx system to reduce emissions.\nFigure 4 shows that SOx and NOx emissions from Isogo are less than those from fossil-fired power plants in other developed countries, due to this advanced DeSOx and DeNOx system.\nFIGURE 4. Japan has some of the lowest SOx, NOx per thermal-power-generation electric energy in the world.9\u201311\nCurrently, J-POWER and Chugoku Electric Power are conducting R&D on oxygen-blown integrated coal gasification combined cycle (IGCC). The aim is to improve energy efficiency and develop economic CO2 capture from syngas, and A-USC to further increase efficiency and reduce CO2 emissions. The goal for commercialization of IGCC is the early 2020s; then triple combined-cycle technology also employing fuel cells and integrated coal gasification fuel cell combined cycle (IGFC) is the next R&D step to improve energy efficiency further. Japan intends to remain a world leader in clean coal technologies. It is important to allocate sufficient budget and invest in innovative technologies wisely.\nGLOBAL PERSPECTIVE ON COAL FOR POWER\nAccording to the IEA, in 2014, coal provided 40% of the world\u2019s power generation\u2014the largest share. Historically, in the 1990s the OECD\u2019s share in coal-fired power generation was 70%, as depicted in Figure 5. The volume of coal-fired power generation has more than doubled since then and is expected to grow 24% by 2040. The share of non-OECD\u2019s coal-fired power generation began to accelerate in 2000 and, at current levels, is expected to be more than 60% today and will be more than 80% in 2040. Coal demand in the Asian power sector will increase by 67% from today to 2040.\nFIGURE 5. Cumulative capacity of retired and added coal-fired power plants by region, 2015\u20132040.5\nFigure 6 shows the cumulative capacity of retired and added coal-fired power plants by region between 1990 and 2040. In OECD countries, the total retirement of coal-fired plants is more than 300 GW, whereas total additions are 100 GW. In China and Southeast Asia, a large number of additional coal-fired plants is expected to be built. According to the IEA, between 2015 and 2040 the total additional capacity of coal-fired power plants in non-OECD countries will be more than 1000 GW, or more than half of the existing capacity of coal-fired plants in the world.\nFIGURE 6. Coal-fired power generation, 1990\u201320404,11\nCountries are building coal-fired power generation primarily because coal is an inexpensive power source in comparison to other energy sources. Many of those countries, such as China and Indonesia, also have large reserves of coal. Many of the economic growth plans of non-OECD countries are built around an energy policy based on inexpensive coal-fired power. Therefore it is important to encourage use of coal in the most efficient way\u2014that is, through high-efficiency power generation technology in order to reduce CO2 emissions\u2014particularly in non-OECD Asia.\nIn the wake of increased awareness about the risks of climate change, criticism of coal is increasing in OECD countries. In addition, public financing for new coal-fired power projects is being restricted. An agreement was reached after several months of intense argument over a proposal by the U.S. and the UK to ban all public financing of coal-fired power projects and a counter-proposal by Japan and Australia to allow efficient coal-fired power projects, with high-efficiency technology to be eligible. In September 2015, the OECD\u2019s Export Credits Arrangement review process was changed to allow investment in coal-fired power projects that employ USC technology. OECD member countries accepted that efficient use of coal helps non-OECD countries reduce CO2 emissions effectively, instead of banning officially supported export credits to all coal-fired power projects.\nGiven the need for efficient use of coal in Asia, Japan intends to encourage and deploy its clean coal technologies in countries to effectively mitigate global CO2 emissions. J-POWER is engaged in several projects in Indonesia, including construction of two IPP 1000-MW USC coal-fired units in Central Java. The project will use local subbituminous coal and be Indonesia\u2019s first coal-fired power plant to use USC technology. The plant is expected to become operational in 2020. The project will also contribute to the sustainable development of Indonesia and CO2 mitigation.\nThe Paris Agreement went into force in November 2016 under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). To achieve CO2 emissions reduction targets, countries will need to implement a wide array of mitigation technologies, including clean coal technologies. In the short term, efficient use of coal is the key to CO2 emissions reductions in Asian countries. Japan\u2019s clean coal technology will contribute to using coal most efficiently in power generation and support sustainable development in Asia. J-POWER is engaged to demonstrate and implement clean coal technologies commercially both in Japan and internationally and to continue with further research and development.\nMinistry of Energy, Trade and Industry of Japan.

It is a lesser known fact that she fights crime at night with her homeboy Swampert.\nSwamp is a Girl! Edit\nSwamp is often mistaken for being a guy, because of her extremely swaggie and gangster-like username. She is greatly annoyed by this, but in most cases goes along with it because she doesn't feel like correcting people.\nWhere to Find Swamp Edit\nSwamp is most commonly spotted playing CT60. In the past she has been a regular of several other games as well. She posts randomly throughout the rest of the forums whenever and wherever the hell she feels like it.\nMarriages Edit\nSwamp married her true love, Sling (whom she likes to call Slinky) on May 5th of 2013. Months later, Yveltal96 forced her into a marriage with him, although she attempted to get a divorce, they are (according to him) still married. Swamp then married The DragonKnight, even though they never had an official wedding their marriage is at least 10 official in the eyes of the law. Swamp later went on to marry Exeggudork, on February 1st of 2014, even though he has an egg shaped head and is kinda ughly everyone in their polygamist marriage is infatuated with him.\nLaziness Edit\nSwamp is extremely lazy and it is hard to get her to actually do anything productive. It is surprising she took the time to even join Wikia, let alone create this article.\nRetrieved from \"http://count-to-60.wikia.com/wiki/Swampert_is_my_Homeboy?oldid=9369\"",

        "raw_content": "The Small Claims Court\nBased on established legal principles and natural justice, the Small Claims Court of Nova Scotia provides a timely, less formal and reasonably cost-effective forum for the resolution of certain types of claim, to a maximum of $25,000 (not including interest and legal costs).\nIn addition, the Small Claims Court functions as the initial forum for appeals from decisions of Residential Tenancy Officers affecting both tenants and landlords.\nFinally, the Small Claims Court functions (without monetary limit) as the initial forum in which disputes between lawyers and their clients regarding fees and other financial issues are heard and resolved.\nIn the Small Claims Court you can make a claim for up to $25,000 with some limitations. You can also make a claim for the return of goods or \u201cpersonal property\u201d valued to a maximum of $25,000. You cannot make a claim in the Small Claims Court which relates to land ownership, wills and estates, malicious prosecution, wrongful imprisonment or defamation (libel and slander). You also cannot make a claim in the Small Claims Court for what are known in law as \u201cgeneral damages\u201d in an amount greater than $100. The remainder of the Small Claims Court\u2019s jurisdiction relates to residential tenancy appeals (appeals from decisions over rented property made by Residential Tenancy Officers) and disputes between lawyers and their clients over fees and other retention issues.\nThough lawyers frequently appear before the Small Claims Court to present claims and defences on behalf of their clients, it is not necessary for those appearing before the Court to be represented by lawyers. In fact, the informality by which Small Claims Court proceedings are conducted is conducive to claimants (those making claims) and defendants (those responding to claims) representing themselves.

        "title": "COWIs growth strategy",
        "raw_content": "In 2016, COWI has delivered considerable growth in turnover, operating profit and cash flow. Large projects in the order book, further strengthening of presence in core markets as well as the prospect of continued infrastructure investments in Scandinavia and in export markets foster positive expectations for the next year.\nCOWI's new growth strategy, One Step Ahead, which was launched at the beginning of 2016, has yielded results on both the top line and the bottom line:\nIn 2016, the company generated a turnover of DKK 5,939 million, which represents an increase of six per cent compared to 2015. In addition, COWI delivered an operating profit of DKK 231 million, which is also a considerable improvement compared to 2015, namely an increase of 27 per cent. Lastly, the company's cash flow more than doubled, reaching DKK 228 million.\nPresident, CEO of COWI, Lars-Peter S\u00f8bye, is highly satisfied with the results:\n\"For the 12th year running, we achieved growth in turnover. We were also able to meet our earnings target and we improved our cash flow considerably, which gives us the financial strength and flexibility that we need to further develop our business. It proves that we have set the right strategy for COWI and made the right choices regarding markets and sectors.\"\nUrbanisation as market driver\nThe intense urbanisation and urban development seen in Scandinavia and other parts of the world continue to be the market trends driving growth in COWI.\n\"Projects continue to increase in size and complexity. The large-scale urban development projects that are being launched these years call for a holistic approach and competencies within a wide range of disciplines. That is what fuels the demand for our solutions, especially in infrastructure, but also in our other core competencies: energy, water and environment, and buildings,\" says S\u00f8bye and continues:\n\"When taking on these major projects, it's vital that we're able to swiftly set a team with the right competencies across sectors and geographies. With that in mind, identifying and utilising synergies across the organisation was a key priority for us in the first year of our new strategy. I'm very pleased that we succeeded in establishing the framework and culture that are needed for us to act as One COWI in the market,\" says S\u00f8bye.\nHe largely attributes the winning of prestigious projects in 2016 to this approach: the transformation of the former post terminal site \"Posten\" in Copenhagen, Denmark; the West Link Project (V\u00e4stl\u00e4nken) in Gothenburg, Sweden; the European Spallation Source in Lund, Sweden; and the Lower Thames Crossing in London, the UK.\nPositive expectations for the years to come\nDespite important political events, especially in Great Britain and the US, which will continue to spur uncertainties on the global stage, COWI predicts that 2017 will be yet another year of growth:\n\"In 2016, we strengthened our presence further in our geographical core markets \u2013 Scandinavia, Great Britain and North America. Combined with massive investments in infrastructure \u2013 current as well as announced to take place in the years to come \u2013 we expect to continue to grow in 2017. We already have solid order book with large projects that are scheduled for execution in the coming years.\"\nNew large projects in 2016\nIn Denmark, COWI won the consultancy contract for all engineering works on the former post terminal site at Copenhagen Central Station \u2013 one of the most important urban development projects in Copenhagen in recent times.\nIn addition, COWI won the design contract for Denmark's largest stormwater tunnel in northern Copenhagen, and was awarded several large framework agreements on thermal power by Dong Energy. COWI was also chosen as main consultant for the construction of the Steno Diabetes Center Copenhagen at Herlev Hospital, and won the contract for construction management of the New Hospital Glostrup's neurorehabilitation facility. Furthermore, COWI won the design contract for the 22,000 m\u00b2 Pier E project at Copenhagen Airport.\nIn Sweden, COWI won the extensive infrastructure project the West Link Project in Gothenburg, which involves construction of an underground station and a railway tunnel. Moreover, COWI won the design contract for the main building of the groundbreaking science facility European Spallation Source in Lund as well as the consultancy contract for the spectacular ICEHOTEL north of the Arctic Circle.\nIn Norway, COWI's wins included two key design contracts: the design of the new fighter air force base in Evenes and the Norwegian emergency response centre for national police.\nOutside Scandinavia, COWI won the technical consultancy contracts for the new Lower Thames Crossing in London and for the major bridge project Cebu-Cordova Link Expressway in the Philippines.\nCOWI was also awarded the design contract for the foundations for Taiwan's first offshore wind farm, Formosa 1 Offshore Wind Farms, as well as a large project management consultancy contract in Jordan regarding implementation of the largest wind farm in the country. In addition, COWI was chosen as main consultant on the largest waste management project ever undertaken in Egypt.",

        "raw_content": "\u00ab Sue and Settle Update\nOccupational Licensing and Goldilocks \u00bb\nIn all fairness, the threat of future prosecution is exactly what deters burglary. That, and the basic law-abiding nature of the majority of people. The locks on your doors don't even slow a burglar down, let alone deter them.\nErm, when I grew up, we always left the door unlocked for both the house and the cars, even when nobody was home. We would only bother locking up if we went away for vacation, but I guess we had better neighbors...\nI don't see a problem -- no one forces anyone to take advantage of the benefits of LLCs/Corps etc. If the risk is too great don't form one.\nW.C. Taqiyya:\nI don't see a problem either. After all, you are a businessman and operate a business. Anything bad happens, it's OK. Remember, business is evil, profit is evil and you are probably just trying to get away with something. You are lucky they give you a place to register. In the ideal world, you would be sanitized.\nI have replaced all the exterior doors on my house with foam core steel doors. That plus deadbolts should slow them down a little.\nLocks have always been around for the purpose of keeping honest people honest. In this day and age, however, identity theft and subsequent electronic theft from bank accounts, as we have witnessed by failure of American retailers to convert their credit cards to the more secure formats such as 3D Secure logos is a far bigger problem then that of the Arizona Secretary of State. After new security is added to cards carried, added security has to be imposed for online transactions and that may require use of intermediate services like PayPal or Google Wallet in order to shut down the vulnerability of our exposed credit card numbers when hackers steal as was the case at Target.\nStefan Molyneux points this out quite a bit. Businesses looked for the most economical solution to theft, fraud, etc, since they don't want to spend a ton of money so they focus on prevention. So they put up passwords, etc. Government, on the other hand, doesn't spend its own money so doesn't have this incentive, its incentive is more in line with keeping the bureaucrats happy (to move up the food chain) and to follow whatever rules are most convenient to follow (knowing that it is unlikely they are to be prosecuted, unless they are low on the totem pole).\nThe Commission or the aggrieved business entity may\nrefer the false filing to the Attorney General\u2019s office for prosecution.\nAdditionally, the individual business entity may pursue a civil cause of\nHere is the problem \u2013 the ACC has no incentive to increase their security, because they are indemnified from any wrongdoing on their site, because\nthe Commission\u2019s existing security measures comply\nwith the state law and are similar to most other states and other Arizona\ngovernmental entities like the County Treasurer\u2019s Office[\u2026]\nEverybody else is doing it, and they\u2019re in compliance, so they don\u2019t need to change.\nThey are \u201clooking into that\u201d now, but that timetable is likely geological time scale.\nI don't see that logic applying here. What I see is that the Az Corp Comm would be required to raise its fees to add security that is apparently not required. I'll let the techno savvy among you tell me how much that would cost. And perhaps it says more about me than anyone else, but I believe people will be griping when the rates do go up.\nYeah, the locks on most residences (and businesses) aren't much better than the privacy locks on a bathroom. More challenging locks (like the Mul-T-Lock MT5+) aren't stupidly expensive. Most homes can be outfitted for between a couple of hundred and a thousand dollars. Of course, you still need good doors & windows...\nEx post deterrence won't work if it is about impossible to prosecute anyone hiding their identity, eg through a VPN. But heck if it works, if nobody or almost nobody goes rogue what the hey.\nNobody forces anyone to accept welfare. So why is their database not open to the public?\nA story awhile back where someone showed a bank that they neglected to secure their website, so they had the FBI arrest him.\nI've got to admit, I don't see the relationship.\nOld Dude:\nForce is a complex word.\nMany (most ?) public and many private businesses, here in CA, will not do business with a Sole Proprietorship or Partnership. This is to protect themselves from lawsuits by contracted service providers who later claim to be employees. Courts settlements have made contracting with individuals very risky and so Public Agencies and Private Businesses just avoid it.\nIn many situations you can't enter the facility (to bid on work) unless you can show that you are the employee of a corporation and are covered under Worker's Compensation. This too is the result of complex case law.\nThe situation is the same for much of the software industry. They won't hire Independent Contractors. You have to be employed by an LLC/Corps (even if you are the only employee).\nI have also heard that renting commercial or retail space is difficult as a Sole Proprietor.\nSo I while I agree that no one is forced to become an LLC/Corp it gets harder every year to find customers willing to engage the services of non-corps.\nMy state does it exactly the same way. Ridiculous.\nI see this much like the Voter Fraud issue. Our elected officials say there is essentially no voter fraud and so no need to check IDs. Then when we see documentation showing dead people, non-citizens, or people voting multiple times we are told that those people will be prosecuted. Then we learn they were not prosecuted because we can't identify them since they did not have to show ID to vote. Problem solved, Loop closed - repeat.\nIt seems the only way to be charged with vote fraud is to make a video showing how easy it is to commit vote fraud.\nPerhaps once the corporate lawyer/small business owner/LLC demonstrates that they have filled the annual registration requirement no one cares and the data is not used by any one in any serious way.\nI suspect the part they care about is paying the fee.\nWhat those basic locks do is to raise the bar of effort from idle curiosity to intent. They also show that it wasn't an accident that you intruded.\nEarl Wertheimer:\nUnfortunately, in Montreal, if the police find your car door unlocked, you will get a ticket!\nInstead of finding and jailing the crooks, it's easier to check for unlocked car doors.\nNone is as blind as he who will not see.\nNot hard to walk in the back yard and bust a window.\nSmall mom and pop internet mail order companies have password protection on their accounts. They have plenty of commercial off the shelf solutions, if the web page was constructed right. Sure charge an extra dollar per year beyond the exorbitant fees they already charge.\nNevada is password protected. California works by snail mail. I don't know if it is necessarily true that they comply with similar measures done by other states.\nVPN? How about just hanging out in the library?\n\"None is as blind as he who will not see.\"\nI think that this is true because a vest has no sleeves.\nIf they aren't taking the time to authenticate the identity of someone wanting to file one of those online forms, it's unlikely they've taken the time to put in place the tools, audit trails and such they'd need to be able to figure out who committed the crime.\nsjutte350:\nWindows are still made of glass, which can be broken with very little effort. The idea that you can make your house un-enterable with even the best locks money can buy is kind of naive.",

Her big plow was useful in fighting snow four months later.\nRobert S. McGonigal\nDurango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad engineer Jarrette Ireland assesses the K-28 Mikados:\nThere are many reasons why I personally enjoy the K-28's, some of which has to do with their rich history on the Rio Grande, and especially the San Juan passenger train and the Silverton Branch. The three surviving K-28's also have the distinction of being the last steam locomotives ever operated on the Rio Grande's watch, as well as the first operated by the Durango & Silverton.\nMechanically, the K-28s ride better than the bigger K-36's due to the lower profile and placement of the trailing truck. The 473 is a delight to fire as it drafts very well and steams great, so between the smoother ride and good firing characteristics, it makes the 473 an easy day on the line. Having the air compressor on the front of the smokebox instead of along the running board not only makes them have the cool Alco appearance, but also gives you a better line of sight on the fireman's side, as the running board is flat instead of rising up as on the other three K classes [K-27, 36, and 37].\nAs for running the K-28's, the throttle and the brake stand are closer to you so you don't spend the day leaning nearly as far forward as you would on the K-36's. Although the K-36 is also a fine locomotive, I personally enjoy the 28's better.",

        "title": "Informed Consent in the Operating Room: Ethical Topic in Medicine",
        "raw_content": "What are some common situations in which a patient's ability to make decisions about surgery and anesthesia may be questioned?\nHow does medication affect a patient's ability to give valid consent to a procedure?\nHow does the physical or mental stress of the OR affect the informed consent process?\nWhat information should be provided to surgical patients in the consent process?\nCan I influence patients during the informed consent process?\nDo we harm patients by causing stress and anxiety when we tell them about the risks of anesthesia and surgery?\nWhat do I do in an emergency, or when the patient is incapable of making a decision?\nIs the surgical consent sufficient to cover anesthesia care?\nWhat if the patient requests not to hear about risks?\nThe informed consent process for surgery usually begins long before the patient enters the operating room environment, with the patient's first visit to the surgeon's office. In contrast, the informed consent for anesthesia is often obtained in the minutes before surgery in which the anesthesiologist and patient meet for the first time. (See also the main topic page for Informed Consent.)\nMany situations commonly arise around the time of surgery, in which a patient's ability to make health care decisions may be, rightfully or wrongfully, called into question. Some of them include:\nthe premedicated patient\nthe patient in labor\nthe patient under stress\nthe patient with known mental illness\nthe patient with organic brain disease\nthe immature patient (i.e. patient who is minor in age, or who has immature mental capacity, such as some forms of mental handicap)\nIt is common to encounter patients who have received sedation and/or pain medication prior to coming to surgery, and it is also common for such medications to be deliberately withheld prior to surgery in anticipation of the necessity to obtain consent. When pain medications are withheld, patients may feel pressured to consent in order to obtain medication to relieve their suffering.\nIn some instances, premedication may actually enhance a patient's ability to make decisions, by providing pain relief or relief from emotional distress, so that they can focus on the choices they are making. Clearly, if premedication has rendered the patient unable to listen, to understand their situation, the need for care, the risks, and alternatives, or to communicate a decision, then it has negated the informed consent process. But pain medication should never be withheld from a suffering patient under the guise of obtaining informed consent.\nMany studies have examined the ability of laboring patients to give informed consent. While many patients do not later remember the informed consent process, laboring patients in general demonstrate the capacity to understand their situation, understand proposed care, risks, and alternatives, and express consent. Legal cases have recognized the complex voluntary physical control required from a laboring woman to permit epidural placement, and cite the physical cooperation of the woman in the process as an indication of motivation and consent for the procedure.\nWhile many, if not most patients coming to the OR are experiencing stress, there is little evidence that most are not able to meet the standards mentioned on the main topic page (Informed Consent) to make decisions regarding their health care.\nPatient immaturity can be relevant when the patient is of a very young age (minor) and presumed to not have the cognitive development to make meaningful decisions, or when the patient suffers from mental handicap which impairs her cognitive development. Once again, neither condition in itself precludes participation of the patient in decision making, but expert consultation may be needed to determine whether the patient is capable of understanding their situation and options, and making a decision based on them. In the case of minor patients, legal precedents determine when a minor can give legal consent, but do not address the issues of when a minor patient should be invited ethically to participate in the informed consent process. A more detailed discussion of these issues will occur in the Pediatrics Clerkships.\nGeneral rules to follow in consent for surgery and anesthesia are to inform the patient of common risks even if they are not serious, and very serious risks, such as death, even if they are not common. By asking the patient if they have any specific concerns, you can invite the patient to let you know of any \"special\" informational needs that they may have which are not obvious to you.\nWhen discussing risks with patients, understand that mere recitation of statistical risks may mean little to patients, and it can be helpful to relate the information to risks which have some meaning for the patient. The approximately one in 50,000 risk of death during general anesthesia in a healthy patient can be compared to that of the risk of death in an automobile accident (about twice that), as a way of putting perspective on the information being provided.\nInfluence can be applied to the information given to patients, and generally falls into three categories:\nCoercion is the application of a credible threat to the patient, and is always unethical. Manipulation involves incomplete or nontruthful presentation of information, such as lying, omitting vital information, or deliberately deceiving. Manipulation is always ethically suspect. Persuasion involves the presentation of a rational argument for a choice, and is permissible, even desirable during the consent process. Patients recognize that physicians have expertise and advice to offer about their care, and expect physicians to be forthright with recommendations.\n\"Therapeutic privilege,\" or the idea that information may harm patients, is often cited as a reason to curtail the discussion of risks with patients about to undergo anesthesia and surgery. Multiple studies have failed to demonstrate differences in the way patients and observers rate the stress levels of patients who receive detailed information when compared with patients who received little or no information about risks.\nConscious, competent patients have the right to make choices regarding their health care in emergencies, just as in routine care.\nWhen patients are incapacitated, it is important to seek the advice of appropriate surrogate decision makers and others who know the patient and are aware of his or her usual choices. When such information cannot be obtained, the physician should try to act in the best interest of the patient until such a surrogate can be found.\nPrinciples involving the informed consent process require that the best available information about procedures and risks be provided to patients. Just as anesthesiologists lack the expertise to discuss risks of surgery, surgeons lack expertise to discuss the nature and risks of anesthesia.

We consider whether any of these terms hold the clue to interpreting Jesus as rather more than another of the prophets of Israel. The Romans seem to have concluded that he was a political threat; the earliest Christians acclaimed him as \u2018Messiah\u2019, but his public activity seemed not to match the Messianic profile.

        "title": "The Crazy Dream Blog: UPDATE: Dark Horse Indie and Timelines",
        "raw_content": "UPDATE: Dark Horse Indie and Timelines\nHey DreamCatchers!\nSo I know it's been kinda slow around here at the Crazy Dream Blog since Falling Away went live on Valentine's Day. For the past three weeks, I've been pounding away at the laptop trying to get a novel out of my head and onto paper (okay, onto a blindingly bright screen). I was trying to get my head back into my Immortal Archives series to get Catacombs going again, but I wasn't feeling all that motivated. Then my gal pal JA Redmerski and I were talking about how her publishing company wanted her to write a follow-up to her awesome new book The Edge of Never. We'd both gone from writing supernatural and fantasy books to writing romance, and hey, turned out we both loved it, and totally amazed at how easily they came to us. So I'm sitting there bitching about how I'm lacking the inspiration right now to make Catacombs as awesome as I want it to be, and she basically said, \"Screw it. Write another romance. Realistic fiction is hot right now. I bet you could have something on the market by summer.\" I did my, \"Oh, God no, not another book. I've already pushed Dust and Falling Away ahead of Catacombs and readers are starting to ask WTF? I can't push it back again.\"\nSo I go off to soak in the tub for a good long while, and by the time I come out, I have a realistic fiction novel flowing through my head that I'm so freakin' excited about that I just can't help myself. I buried myself behind the computer and had 5K (5,000 words) written before I crashed in bed. Thanks, Jessica (insert sarcasm). Actually, I probably should thank her 'cause this has gotten me out of that writing funk and the words are just flowing out of me. Now it's three weeks later and I already have 50K ready to go and I seriously believe I can have the first draft of Nearly Broken ready by April 1st (no joke here!). HA! I actually completed it on April 1st! Am I good or what?\nSo here's my new timeline: Nearly Broken will definitely be ready for a summer release. I'm keeping that time block so my critique writers have all the time they need to filet it if necessary (hopefully not) and get in lots of editing. I'm also planning to throw it on NetGalley for reviews and I want to make sure readers have plenty of time to get to it as well. So...summer release. I'll announce an actual date once I see what my critique buddies say. I believe it's my best romance to date, but I won't lie. Nearly Broken is for mature audiences only, as there are some pretty dark and disturbing situations that not everyone will feel comfortable reading. So take heed if you like your love stories to be nothing but sunshine and lollypops - this ain't that kind of love story.\nCatacombs I'm still hoping to get out by late summer. I'm going to tackle it as soon as my draft of Nearly Broken is ready to share. I think I'll have my romance bone sated enough to finally get my focus going. And there will be some romance in Catacombs as Emily and Gaius are finally able to get to know each other, so YAY! It just bums me out that I've made these clean urban fantasy novels in respect to sex, so it won't be nearly as descriptive as my romance novels.\nAnd finally Stardust. This is the follow-up to Dust, the first novel in the Of Dust and Darkness trilogy. I've been getting asked about this one the most. I still plan to release before the end of the year, but it'll most likely be a December release. With two books needing publishing first, it's on the back burner. But don't worry, that story's been marinating in my head, and when I sit down to really focus on it, it's gonna come out fast and easy. I do have a cover ready to go, but don't plan to do a reveal until later this year. So no, you're not going to find this on GoodReads yet either. The story could always change as I'm writing it, so I don't want to throw out a synopsis for it too early.\nAnd lastly, if you've tried checking out what's going on over at Dark Horse Indie lately, you've probably noticed it's not there. That's a blog I share with fellow Indie writers JA Redmerski, Rebecca A Rogers and Constance Sharper. We sorta pulled the reins (yeah, pun intended) on that for now. We've all been extremely busy as of late and we don't see our schedules clearing up any time soon, so since no one can truly focus on that blog, it's currently off the web. So sorry guys. You can still check out their personal blogs using the buttons on the left side of my page.\nAlright, I've spent enough time writing this post. Time to get back to writing my novel! Cheers!\nOh, and by the way, I'm the author of the month over at Books Complete Me. They'll be spotlighting my novels every Sunday and each of my published novels are up for grabs internationally. Head over if you want a chance to win!\nSee all my books on GoodReads.\nThank you so much for the update. It's wonderful to hear about your future books as well.\nUses For Boys by Erica Lorraine Scheidt (ARC)",

        "raw_content": "Marilyn Manson\u2019s Former Keyboardist Reportedly Hopes His Ex-Boss Suffers\nDaniel Boczarski / Kevin Winter, Getty Images\nAn ankle injury sustained by Marilyn Manson over the weekend has prompted the cancelation of at least two weeks' worth of shows, but he's getting no sympathy from his former keyboardist. Stephen Bier, who was known as Madonna Wayne Gacy during his tenure with Manson, accused him of milking the injury for all it's worth, but added, \"I hope he suffers.\"\nAs reported by Alternative Nation, he wrote about Manson's injury on Facebook. However, it appears that the post(s) have since been deleted. Still, the site says that his screed began, \"I guess he was close enough for my black magic to work. This is why old wasted people shouldn't fumble around in the dark.\"\nManson was taken to a hospital on Saturday when, during a performance at New York's Hammerstein Ballroom, he was climbing a piece of the set comprised of two giant guns attached to scaffolding, which then fell on top of him. The night before, in Pittsburgh, he told the crowd he broke his ankle after jumping off the stage, a claim Gacy dismissed.\n\"If he had broken his ankle he wouldn't be walking around like this,\" he continued, \"that is probably just more of his hyperbole. I recall the same excuse being used to cancel a Los Angeles show when all it was was a slightly sprained ankle. And anyways, if you're going to climb the scaffolding, shouldn't you be doing that during 'My Monkey'? Well, if it weren't for the guns, the truss would have actually hit him pretty hard.\"\nGacy also doubted the severity of the injury. \"Well, he is pretty famous for turning his wasted mistakes into serendipitous publicity events,\" he said. \"The converse is also true: he often turns publicity events into wasted mistakes.\" He used a bit of his own experience to suggest that the objects that fell on Manson weren't even that heavy.\n\"The guns (I assume) were carved out of foam,\" he added, \"which is really typical like Ozzy [Osbourne]'s demons. And the truss maybe is aluminum. When you're shipping things around the country you want them to be as light as possible and need as few crew hands as possible to move and set up.\"\nHe concluded by implying that he put a hex on Manson. \"I'm only 16 miles away [from the venue]. And as the crow flies (or the voodoo works) it's even shorter than that. ... I forgive him, but I hope he suffers.\"\nGacy played with Manson from 1989 until 2007, after which he sued his employer for $20 million in back payments. It was settled in 2009, with Gacy receiving $380,000. Bad blood apparently still exists between the two. Last year, as a seemingly high number of famous musicians were coincidentally passing away, he wrote, \u201cI am genuinely amazed at how many prominent entertainers and musicians have kicked-off in the last 30 days\u2026 too bad Brian Warner [Manson's birth name] isn\u2019t one of them. I can\u2019t wait to do: the electric Boogaloo, the Texas two step, the waltz, and an Irish jig on his grave.\u201d\nRock&apos;s Worst Concert Mishaps and Tragedies\nNext: Marilyn Manson for Vice President?",

The words of Steve Jobs in particular capture the essence of the mindsets students will need for the future as they take their place in a world where automation and outsourcing of routine work are transforming the landscape and their career prospects. I have had the enormous privilege of teaching cognitive strategies that support creative thinking to students from kindergarten through college age and have been inspired by their incredible potential to learn, to innovate, and to solve problems.\nClick the link to read the entire newsletter on the Information Age Education website.\nLabels: creativity, innovation, Marcus Conyers, problem solving\nWe often write about the importance of maintaining an optimal state for learning in classrooms as well as in the home. However, there is no denying that there are challenges facing teachers and parents today that make setting the stage for learning a difficult task at times. Two of the key factors are stress and depression.\nThe Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has identified depression and anxiety as two major causes of illness and death in the United States as well as contributing to lower quality of life and reduced social functioning. According to 2009 statistics, more than 15% of Americans (including about 4% of children and adolescents) have been diagnosed with depression at some point in their lives.\nIn some cases, children are coming into the classroom with inadequate sleep or malnourishment. In the most adverse cases, there are children who are suffering from child abuse and neglect or violence in their homes or neighborhoods. These extreme circumstances can lead to toxic stress, which impairs development of neural connections.\nLabels: depression, state of learning, stress\nLearning to manage time and meet deadlines are valuable skills for workers of the future\u2014and the students in your classroom right now!\nThrough explicit instruction on time management, you can guide students to understand the importance of scheduling tasks to finish school assignments and to complete big projects on time without cramming at the end and turning in half-finished, subpar work.\nTime management is one of 25 cognitive assets covered in the Thinking for Results approach (Wilson & Conyers, 2011). Guiding students to learn to \u201cthink about their thinking\u201d\u2014to become more metacognitive\u2014and develop their thinking and problem-solving skills is a central tenet of the graduate degree programs with a major in Brain-Based Teaching that we co-developed and are being offered through Nova Southeastern University\u2019s Fischler School of Education.\nLabels: Thinking for Results, time management",

        "title": "Noah's Flood: Global or Local?",
        "raw_content": "Noah's Flood: Global or Local?\nDonald Hochner and Richard Anthony\nI would like to share what I learned about Noah's flood. Luther maintained that the original location of the garden of Eden, though known to Adam and his descendants, was obliterated by the devastating effects of Noah's flood. The geographical conditions of that region had changed significantly, including the rivers which served as the borders of the garden. I believe Noah's flood was not global, which I will attempt to show you.\nIn scripture, the phrases \"the earth\" and \"the world\" pertaine to a locality, and not to the whole earth. Even when America was first discovered by Europeans, it was called \"the new world.\" This phrase did not refer to a new planet, but just a locality on the same planet.\n1. Most would say that the flood covered all the earth, but in Hebrew, the word for \"earth\" can mean locality as well:\na. God destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah and Lot's daughters said \"there's not a man in the earth (erets) to come in unto us\" (Genesis 19:31) We know that not every man in the world was killed ... only those in the area of the destruction.\nb. Exodus 9:33 \"the rain was not poured upon the earth\" #776 (erets)... Of course we understand it is just speaking about a certain area in Egypt.\nc. In Jeremiah 34:1, \"all the kingdoms of the earth of his dominion, and all the peoples, fought against Jerusalem.\" There the phrase \"of the earth\" is limited to \"his dominion,\" i.e., the dominion of Nebuchadnezzar.\nd. In II Chronicles 36:23, Cyrus' empire is said to have encompassed \"all the kingdoms of the earth.\" But there were kingdoms in the Far East which were surely not included.\ne. Acts 11:28 speaks of a similar famine \"throughout all the world,\" yet it is not likely it really meant over the whole globe including the New World.\nf. Luke 2:1 refers to a decree which went out to tax \"the whole world.\" But this only refers to the territories that the Romans controlled.\nI could go on with the list but this would be suffice.\n2. If the flood was global, how did it recede? Why didn't the oceans (Atlantic, Pacific, etc.) recede? This would be like dipping water out of one end of a swimming pool and pouring it in the other end. The level would be remain unchanged!\n3. How did the plants, trees, etc. survive with the salt water that covered the whole earth. Remember that the flood took place over a year. That would be impossible.\n4. How did the animals arrive in Australia? What about those Sloths (those animals that depend on the trees and live in South America. They cannot walk on the land). I could go on with a list of different animals from different environment, climate, etc.\n5. If the whole planet was covered with water, how did it drain away or evaporate in 164 days? This could not have taken place in 100 years. I also found something about mathematics which supports a local flood which you will see shortly.\n6. One cannot deny the existence of archeological evidence that many great civilizations existed in various parts of the world at the time of the Flood and continued through it.\n7. \"All\" does not always mean all mankind. Did Christ die for \"all\" mankind?\n8. If the flood covered the highest mountain (Mt. Everett), how would they survive in extremely cold and thin air for over a year?\n9. Would people who lived in Europe, North and South America, Australia, etc. have heard Noah's message about God's judgment? Suppose Noah had gone on an evangelistic campaign: by what sign could he have convinced them? Merely to mention that his family at home was constructing an ark would hardly have carried much weight. In other words, the building of the ark was a testimony only to those who could actually see it or have first hand knowledge of it. People can hardly have been scattered to the ends of the earth if this was to be a testimony to them.\n10. Even fish life would suffer in a universal catastrophe. The mingling of the salt and fresh water could be fatal to many of them.\n11. What about in Genesis 6:4, \"There were giants [nephilim] in the earth in those days; and also after that...the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown.\" Also in Numbers 13:33, \"And there we saw the giants [nephilim], the sons of Anak, which come of the giants:\" \"Giants\" is the same Hebrew word #5303. Why weren't they destroyed during the flood? I think this is a stumbling block for those who hold there was a global flood.\nLet me add one more thing why I may be convinced it was a local flood: Sodom and Gomorrah, Egypt, and Jerusalem in AD 70 were destroyed locality. All futurists believe there will be worldwide destruction but they misinterpreted it. Seems to me that is why they think the same thing with the worldwide flood.\nThere are so many problems in such a view which have been overlooked.\nYou might ask about God's covenant in which he said he would never again destroy all mankind and animals with the flood. That is true, I could say that He would never again destroy ALL people and animals in THAT local flood.\nWe have been told in the biblical account that the flood would cover the \"earth,\" that everything in the \"earth\" would die, and other statements about the \"earth,\" all of which would teach the idea of a world-wide flood - EXCEPT for one thing: Hebrew word \"erets\", especially in the Book of Genesis.\nErets (#776 in Strong's), the Hebrew word that translated \"earth\" throughout the flood account and it does not require a world-wide meaning. This word translated \"country\" (140 times) and \"land\" (1,476 times!) in the Bible. Many of them are often of limited land areas.\nWe need to keep in mind that the people living at the time of Moses had no concept of a \"global\" planet ... to them the \"earth\" would be the extent of the geographical land area known to them. To apply this literal meaning throughout the Bible causes problems. (as does other LITERAL exegesis)\nThese false interpretations are assumed and encouraged so that we can continue to support \"tradition\" or orthodoxy - never mind what Scripture is really saying. In so doing, we allow these min-interpretations to contradict other verses where the same word is used! We end up making a mockery of Scripture by trying to get it to fit ill-conceived theology.\nIf we view the flood as global, then we must (if we are consistent) apply that same usage in other places were the same words and phrases are used.\nFor example, Cain was cursed by God and driven from the \"face of the earth\" (Genesis 4:14) We know Cain was not driven off the planet... but out of the land he knew as \"home\" ...\nThe word is used concerning Abraham. \"Get thee out of thy country [erets]...unto a land [erets] that I will shew thee\" (Genesis 12:1). Or another one, \"Abraham journeyed from thence toward the south country [erets], and dwelled between Kadesh and Shur\" (Genesis 20:1).\nOther references in Genesis also show that \"erets\" was used to show specific lands: \"The whole land [erets] of Havilah,\" \"the whole land [erets] of Ethiopia,\" \"the land [erets] of Nod, on the east of Eden,\" Famine at the time of Joseph affected \"all lands [erets]\",etc.\nAlso during the plagues upon Egypt, at one point we read that \"the rain was not poured upon the earth [erets]\" (Ex. 9:33). Do the word study. Try put the word \"land\" instead of global \"earth\" and it may make more sense. I believe some Bible translations are misleading.\nHere's a good one too: In Exodus 10:5-15 we read about a plague of locusts that \"covered the face of the whole earth.\" It should be pretty evident that this locust plague covered only a limited LAND of Egypt... it is the same wording in both places. Yet we never assume these locusts covered the entire globe...\nGenesis 7:4 \"For yet seven days, and I will cause it to rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights; and every living substance that I have made will I destroy from off the face of the earth.\"\nGenesis 7:23 \"And every living substance was destroyed which was upon the face of the *ground*, both man, and cattle, and the creeping things, and the fowl of the heaven; and they were destroyed from the earth: and Noah only remained [alive], and they that [were] with him in the ark.\"\nGenesis 8:9 \"But the dove found no rest for the sole of her foot, and she returned unto him into the ark, for the waters [were] on the face of the whole earth: then he put forth his hand, and took her, and pulled her in unto him into the ark.\"\nBut remember we let the Scriptures interpret the Scriptures about \"the face of the earth [erets]\":\nGenesis 41:56 \"And the famine has been over all the face of the land, and Joseph openeth all [places] which have [corn] in them, and selleth to the Egyptians; and the famine is severe in the land of Egypt,\" There is no evidence of a global famine at that time... the Bible states \"all countries (erets) came to Egypt\" to buy corn (Genesis 41:57) Surely it means the countries close to Egypt... Certainly not \"all\" countries -- unless we assume the Australians or the American Indians... were in Egypt buying corn.\nIf we take \"erets\" to mean the entire planet, then we also have to interpret that OTHER PLANETS came to Egypt to buy corn. All this, so we can maintain the false teaching of a universal flood.\nNum. 11:31 \"And a spirit hath journeyed from Jehovah, and cutteth off quails from the sea, and leaveth by the camp, as a day's journey here, and as a day's journey there, round about the camp, and about two cubits, on the face of the land.\"\n1 Sam. 20:15 \"but thou dost not cut off thy kindness from my house unto the age, nor in Jehovah's cutting off the enemies of David, each one from off the face of the ground.\"\n2 Sam. 18:8 \"and the battle is there scattered over the face of all the land, and the forest multiplieth to devour among the people more than those whom the sword hath devoured in that day.\"\nIsa. 23:17 \"And it hath come to pass, At the end of seventy years Jehovah inspecteth Tyre, And she hath repented of her gift, That she committed fornication With all kingdoms of the earth on the face of the ground.\"\nJer. 47:2 \"Thus said Jehovah: Lo, waters are coming up from the north, And have been for an overflowing stream, And they overflow the land and its fulness, The city, and the inhabitants in it, And men have cried out, And howled hath every inhabitant of the land.\"\nAfter the Israelites were delivered from Egypt and settled in Canaan, the scripture says they \"covered the face of the earth\" (Numbers 22:5,11) Not even fundamentalists would say that Israelites covered every square foot of the planet...This is simply a way of stating that they occupied the land in which they were dwelling.\nJeremiah said he was \"...a man of contention to the whole earth!\" (Jeremiah 15:10). Obviously, the whole planet did not know about Jeremiah.\nZechariah 5:3, \"Then said he unto me, This is the curse that goeth forth over the face of the whole earth: for every one that stealeth shall be cut off as on this side according to it; and every one that sweareth shall be cut off as on that side according to it.\" Only Israel knew of God's covenant. The Heathen nations did not know the details of God's Law.\nThere are many instances in the Bible where it speaks of \"the earth\" or the face of the earth... which clearly refers to a limited land, area, or country. We read about \"all\" the hills being covered... or \"all\" flesh destroyed. When God spoke of destroying \"all flesh\", He said he \"will destroy them with the earth\" (Genesis 6:13) The planet earth was not destroyed (of course not) neither was all the flesh on the planet -- only that flesh and land where Noah lived was destroyed.\nWhy, then, should any insist that the flood covering \"the face of the whole earth [erets]\" must mean a universal flood?\nWe know that after Joshua had led the Israelites into the promised land, we read: \"So Joshua took the whole land [erets]...and the land [erets] rested from war\" (Joshua 11:23). No one would think of reading \"earth\" into this passage! We know that the conquest of Canaan didn't include America, China, and Australia! So, I think the \"land\" in a limited area is more correct than the \"earth\" or global flood.\nThe following are all limited land areas that were destroyed:\nIsaiah 13:5, \"...to destroy the whole land [erets]\" (speaking of Babylon).\nJeremiah 4:27, \"...The whole land [erets] shall be desolate...\" (speaking of Jerusalem).\nJeremiah 12:11, \"...the whole land [erets] is made desolate...\"\nJeremiah 25:11, \"And this whole land [erets] shall be a desolation...\"\nZephaniah 1:18, \"...but the whole land [erets] shall be devoured by the fire...\"\nAs I said before, the Hebrew word \"erets\" can be translated \"land\" or \"country\" which is more consistent than the word \"earth\". Also the \"mountains\" can be translated \"hills\" We must not forget that the waters were dried from the \"earth.\" You may have seen the list of why the global flood may not be true.\nLet me give you a few more points to ponder\n1. Notice the order of events in Genesis 8:4, 5:\n\"And the ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, upon the mountains of Ararat. And the waters decreased continually until the tenth month, on the first day of the month, were the tops of the mountains seen.\"\nIt was 74 days AFTER the ark rested that \"the tops of mountains were seen.\" We believe these were some mountains right around the spot where the ark came to rest. If the writer meant all the mountains in the world, he should have said the tops of the mountains were seen and AFTER this the ark rested on the mountains of Ararat. This is self-evident, for there are MOUNTAINS ALL OVER THE WORLD THAT ARE HIGHER THAN ANY IN THAT LAND THAT WAS ANCIENTLY KNOWN AS ARARAT!\"\n2. After it stopped raining and the water began to go back down, the Bible implies the water receded at the rate of 15 cubits in 74 days (Genesis 7:20; 8:4, 5). A number of recognized commentators have mentioned this points. If we figure a cubit at about 18 inches, the water level would have dropped 270 inches during this time or, to round it off, 4 inches a day. If the flood depth was 29,050 feet (348,600 inches) and the water level dropped 4 inches a day, it would take 87,150 days to get back down to normal sea level. That would be almost 239 YEARS!\n3. God told Noah to bring the creatures into the ark and sort the male and female creatures. If there were every creatures in the world, this would require more knowledge than distinguishing between a bull and a cow. What about snakes, ants, termites, snails, etc?\n4. What more, how about feeding lions, leopards, tigers, cats, etc.? How much extra animals would be required for all the meat-eating animals? What about the elephants? One elephant can eat 44 lbs of grain, 66 lbs of hay, 20 to 70 lbs of turnips, carrots, cabbage or fruit. If an elephant eat 170 lbs of food each day, this would be 62,050 lbs during the year in ark. Don't forgot to double that pounds to 124,100 for two elephants! Even some animals like panda (Asia), koala (Australia), three-toed sloth (South America) require a specialized diet. Did Noah and his family gather some for them? What about the woodpeckers that peck the wood or termites that eat the wood! That would be much trouble! Were the dinosaurs also included as some have claimed? Poor Noah and his family. But, it is possible that all the animals were young, and not fully grown. This would mean a lot less feeding.\n5. When the rain came, the rivers filled and ran into the seas which rose until the entire world was covered - according the universal flood view-point. All water became salty. Some fish can only live in fresh water and some require water of a certain temperature. I don't suppose Noah provided climate-controlled aquariums for fish!\n6. If we figure a cubit at 18 inches, this works out to the ark being 450 feet long, 75 feet wide, and 45 feet high. Dividing the height of the ark by 3 (for the three levels) would allow a maximum of 15 feet per level. But we must remember that to support the tremendous weight that would be carried, large beams in floors and ceilings would be required, making actual clearance about 13 feet. The door would have been no higher than this. If huge animals such as African elephants and giraffes were involved - as world-wide flood would require - some would have had problems even getting in the door! Unless, of course, they were all young animals.\n7. What I find very interesting is this, from the writings of Josephus, the noted 1st century Jewish historian. He quoted from Nicolaus of Damascus, \"There is a great mountain in Armenia...upon which it is reported that many who fled at the time of the Deluge were saved; and that one who was carried in the ark came on shore upon the top of it; and that the remains of the timber were a great while preserved. This might be the man about whom Moses the legislator of the Jews wrote.\" (Antiquity of the Jews, Book I, Chapter 3)\nJosephus goes on to say: \"Now the sons of Noah were three...these first of all descended from the mountains into the plains, and fixed their habitation there; and PERSUADED OTHERS WHO WERE GREATLY AFRAID OF THE LOWER GROUNDS ON ACCOUNT OF THE FLOOD, and so were very loath to come down from the higher places, to venture to follow their examples. Now the plain in which they first dwelt was called Shinar. God also commanded them to send colonies abroad...\" (Antiquity of the Jews, Book I, Chapter 4)\n8. Lastly, after the flood, the descendants of Shem, Ham, and Japheth traveled and settled in various countries. \"By these were the isles [coastlands] of Gentiles DIVIDED in their lands, every one after their tongues, after their families, in their nations...These are the families of the sons of Noah, after their generations in their nations: and by these were the nations DIVIDED in the earth after the flood\" (Genesis 10:5, 32). Now, if the flood had drowned all but eight people, how can we explain the existence of these nations to which Noah's descendants migrated and which \"divided\" them? Therefore, the belief that all nations of the world that came from Noah's three sons is filled with difficulties.\nAlso, I am sure that we have been hearing that Noah was building the ark and preaching for 120 years. Others say that people will not live after 120 year old. Anyway, we read in Genesis 6:3, \"And the Lord said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years.\" Judgment was pronounced upon the people in that land but the Lord was willing to delay this for 120 years. This passage doesn't say anything about a flood, or about building an ark, or about HOW this judgment would be carried.\nWhat I find interesting is at this time, 120 years before the flood, Noah would have been 480 years old (for he was 600 at the time of the flood - Genesis 7:11). Later when Noah was 500 years old, his sons were born (Genesis 5:32). And it was later still, AFTER these sons had grown and married, that Noah was told to build the ark. \"Make an ark...I do bring a flood of waters upon the earth...and you shall come into the ark, you, AND YOUR SONS, and your wife, AND YOUR SONS' WIVES WITH YOU\" (Genesis 6:14-18).\"\nClearly, then, it did not take 120 years to build the ark. It is possible that the legend handed down in the book of JASHER - that it took five years (Jasher 5:34) - is correct, but the Bible itself does not say how many years it took.\nLastly, read Luke 17:\nLuke 17:26-30, \"And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man. They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all. Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded; But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all. Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed.\"\nYou see, God destroyed ALL people in the DAY of Noah, in the DAY of Lot, and the DAY of the Son of Man (during the destruction of Jerusalem in AD 70), which means locally only, not worldwide. I think this would be a closed case.\nDid Noah's flood cover the whole planet?\nTo determine this, we might first look into the meaning of the word used for \"earth\" in the Genesis account of Noah's Flood.\nThe word is #776 'erets (eh'-rets); from an unused root probably meaning to be firm; the earth (at large, or partitively a land) KJV translates it: common, country, earth, field, ground, land, nations, way, wilderness, world.\nThat, in itself, may not tell us very much. So we must look to the context of the surrounding scripture.\nThere is another word which is also translated \"earth\" in these same passages concerning Noah's flood... That word is : #127 'adamah (ad-aw-maw'); from 119; soil (from its general redness): KJV translates this -- country, earth, ground, husband [-man] (-ry), land.\nThis word relates to Strongs #120 ADAM\nSo the scripture reads:\nGenesis 6:20, \"Of fowls after their kind, and of cattle after their kind, of every creeping thing of the earth [#127 Adam's earth) after his kind, two of every sort shall come unto thee, to keep them alive.\"\nHere is a case where the TWO Hebrew words are used in the same passage!\nGenesis 7:4, \" For yet seven days, and I will cause it to rain upon the earth (erets #776] forty days and forty nights; and every living substance that I have made will I destroy from off the face of the earth (Adam's earth #127].\"\nWould we be assuming too much to say that the usage of #127 \"adamah\" interdispersed with #776 \"erets\" would qualify that word? Would we be assuming too much to say that land affected was \"Adam's\" land, field, ground etc? (Opposed to Cain's or other tribes or nation's ground)\nNoah's Floating Zoo\nThose who claim a universal flood say every species on earth was brought into the ark. The Bible tells us every \"clean\" animal were brought by sevens and the unclean animals by twos. (Genesis 7:2) For the universal theory to be correct, Noah would have been required to bring a sample of each species now living (and many hundreds more, now extinct) onto the ark. Could this even be possible considering the number of animals and the size of the ark? (see Genesis 6)\nA cubit is about 18 inches long ... so the ark would have been about 450 feet long, 75 feet wide and 45 feet high. The total volume would have been about 1.5 million cubic feet. (I have seen measurements which claim this ark was configured in relation to the temple...)\nAnyway, a squirrel or rabbit would need about 3 cubic feet -- an elephant about 1400 cubic ft. A turkey 9 cubic feet, a lion 120 and a giraffe, 900 cubic feet. We could justly figure about 10 cubic feet per animal on average --- this does not count the insects or any space for stalls or cages or containers.\nWe also have to consider food for the animals which God told Noah to bring on the Ark (Genesis 6:21). Since the ark was \"home\" to everyone for over a year, there would have to be storage space for food for everyone. The average person eats about 1300 pounds of food a year (about 7 times his weight) An elephant eats about 60,000 lbs. of food a year which is 7 to 8 times its weight. An ox or cow (clean animals BTW) can consume about 24,000 lbs of hay a year. A wolf can eat a sheep a week or 52 per year - 20 times its weight and a lion 35 times its weight. (well, the list goes on... but you get the idea)\nWith only 1.2 million cubic feet available on the ark, it appears Noah would have needed at least 43 arks to accomplish the job of storing all the animals and their required food. AND we have not considered all the vegetation and water for drinking and bathing.\nWe must also consider the impossible task of Noah gathering every species of plant and animal on the planet and then somehow, redistributing them back to their original habitat. Many animals require specific climate and habitat in which to live. How would Noah have provided this on the ark? I'm also not going to put you through the considerations of the monumental task of just 8 people tending to keeping this many animals, clean, groomed and exercised! Nor will we consider what might have been done with the waste products of these animals.\nIn all fairness to those who believe in a global flood, in was not necessary for Noah to gather the animals, because God could have brought all of them to him. To fit all the animals on the boat, the animals could have been all small or new borns, and not necessarily full grown animals. This way, the amount of food necessary to feed them would have been a lot less. It is also possible that, if there was a global flood, God could have caused a deep sleep to fall on these animals (many animals do go into hybernation), which would have helped Noah and his family greatly in tending these animals.\nThen too, there is the problem of the salt water and the fresh water mixing. This would kill off the various species of marine life. It would also wipe out all of the trees and seeds of other vegetation as well. If the tops of the highest mountains (about 29,000 feet) were covered, this means the water level would have been five miles above the present sea level. The water pressure would have been about 800 tons per square inch. Ten months of this pressure, along with the lack of light and mixture of salt water would have destroyed all plant life and seeds on the planet. The entire life cycle, which depends upon plants would have ended. Still, the animals released obviously found vegetation to eat.\nIf the whole planet was covered with water, how did it drain away or evaporate in 164 days? This could not have taken place in 100 years.\nThe Bible is regarded as infallible and the fundamentalists believe it must be read in a literal context. This is done out of a misguided reverence for the Bible. There are many types and shadows throughout the Bible which revolve around certain words. Water, ark, saved, world, fire, etc. Many of these symbolic words can be found in Genesis, Daniel, Revelation and many of the prophecies.\nWe must also remember what we have is not the original word of God... but copies, versions and translations of the original words from God. Translations and copies of the Bible by men are not infallible. The Bible does contain poor or even wrong translations, some were by accident while some were intentional. Can these mis-translations be read at \"face value?\" To do so may render an understanding which may be in conflict with science, history, or the Bible itself.\nThe Map of History\nThe Flood of Genesis was a true historical event. According to historians, and Bible scholars, the date was from November in the year 2345 to November 2344 BC. These dates fall smack in the middle of the period in history known as the BRONZE AGE. (3000 BC to 1200 BC) This was a significant period in history. The technology to forge bronze increased trade routes, necessitated the domestication of draft horses, the invention of bellows, ox carts, potters wheels, as well as the invention of the plow for cultivating the soil. These were great advances. If there had been a global flood, it would have set civilization back to the Stone Age and it would have taken centuries to recover what was lost.\nWritten records dating from this time are, of course, not too plentiful. But one cannot deny the existence of archeological evidence that many great civilizations existed in various parts of the world at the time of the Flood and continued through it. If Noah's flood had been universal, all civilizations would have been destroyed along with their inventions, language, art and whatever other advancement each unique civilization would have made. History does not reveal gaps or a large void in any of these cultures which would be the natural result of a catastrophic event such as a global flood.\nEarliest written records of an advanced civilization are those of the Sumerians in Mesopotamia. Their King Lists date to about 3350 BC. This shows an ongoing civilization well through the period of the flood.\nEgypt's history shows no record of a sudden, complete disruption by a great deluge. The pyramids and other monuments erected there before the time of the flood would surely have been destroyed (or at the very least) badly damaged by a universal flood.\nChina's civilization experienced a prosperous period during the Yao Dynasty (between 2400 - 2200) with no record of a cataclysmic interruption.\nThe Minoan civilization on the island of Crete entered a cycle of cultural advancement about 2500 BC. These people had already produced works of art, established cities, had an alphabet and made use of bronze prior to the date of the Flood. It continued to develop and was established as a center of trade until is was destroyed by a volcano in 1470 BC. Though this civilization was based on and island, there was no evidence of a flood in written or archeological evidence.\nThe civilization of the Indus Valley was a thriving state in 2500 BC. It boasted of two great cities harappa and Mohenjo-Daro. This civilization rivaled that of Egypt and Mesopotamia and continued to exist uninterrupted until 1500 BC.\nMore evidence is found in Phoenicia. This was a thriving trade center which existed before, during and after the flood.\nThese along with other groups, the Japanese, the American Indians, and the Negro tribes of Africa, all survived the period of the Flood. There is no evidence that any of these millions of people suddenly disappeared from history and then suddenly re-appeared all over the world carrying the same culture, art, language, writing and architectural designs -- unique to each civilization.\nThe real tragedy is, when fundamentalists try to make history conform to their false notions about the Bible, it makes both them and God's Word seem foolish and unrealistic.\nThis is the last part of what I had planned for proof of a local flood. There are other proofs in archeology and evidence of racial types progressing through this period without interruption.\nThe Bible tells us that Adam and Eve were cast out of the garden to the East. Genesis 3:24, \"So he drove out the man; and he placed at the east of the garden of Eden Cherubims, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of life.\"\nThis land East of Eden was to become Adam's new home. Since we learned in the first part of this study that the flood occurred in #127 Adamah, we can assume this land East of Eden was the general location of the flood.\nIt is a popular opinion that Eden was located near the Tigris-Euphrates river in a place now called Mesopotamia. However, at the time Moses would have written these words, this land (then called Shinar) was as well known and populated as the land of Egypt. He would have logically referred to it as the land of Shinar. Because this is how Moses referred to it in other places in the Bible i.e. (Genesis 10:10, 11:2, 14,1 14:9, and 24:10) This area was well known to Moses by it's familiar name.\nAccording to L.A. Waddell, in his book \"The Makers of Civilization, the inhabitants of Mesopotamia understood (even before the time of Moses) that Eden had been located East of their land.\nReading further in the Genesis account, we find other clues as to the exact location of Adam's land. There was a river with 4 heads. In Genesis 2:10, the account goes on to name the four rivers; Pison, Gihon, Hiddekel, and Euphrates.\nFrederick Haberman \"Tracing Our Ancestors\" considers the plateau of Pamir to be the original Eden. He believes this was the homeland of Adam's descendants up until the time of the Flood. Today this area is known as the Tarim Basin or Eastern Turkestan.\nThis region is surrounded by a ridge of very high mountains forming a gigantic basin in the midst of them. It measures 1,000 long and is about 350 miles wide. From the lakes of this plateau come four great rivers: the Indus, the Jaxartes, the Oxus, and the Tarim. The Oxus is still called by the natives the Digihun or Gihon; the Chitral branch of the Indus answers the description of the Pison; the Jxartes is the original Euphrates and the Tarim going toward the east is in all probability, the Hiddekl. It was a flood of gigantic proportions which brought judgment upon all that were in this land. It may have been \"local\" but it was my no means minimal.\nIf the flood was local, it would explain how, only 292 years after the flood, at the birth of Abraham, Egypt was a great nation. It would also explain how there were many other nations, such as the \"The Kenites, and the Kenizzites, and the Kadmonites, And the Hittites, and the Perizzites, and the Rephaims, And the Amorites, and the Canaanites, and the Girgashites, and the Jebusites\" (Genesis 15:19-21).\nIn Genesis 8:21; 9:11,15 and Isaiah 54:9, God promised no more floods like the one in Noah's time. However, local floods have ravaged the earth down through the ages, killing millions. So, if the flood of Noah was local, it would contradict God's promise. If the flood was worldwide, it would not contradict his promise.\nAnswer: The difference between the flood of Noah and other local floods is that the purpose of the flood in Noah's time was sent as a punishment to destroy all flesh in that local area, and this is the kind of local flood that God promised not to do again:\nGenesis 9:15, \"...and the waters shall no more become a flood to destroy all flesh.\"\nThe local floods that have happened throughout history were not sent as punishment by God to destroy all flesh in those local areas (and there are always survivors in local floods), therefore, this does not contradict God's promise.\nGod gave Noah 120 years to build the Ark (Genesis 6:3). If the flood was local, why go through the trouble of building a huge boat for 120 years? Migrating into the mountains, or to a different land, would have been far easier.\nAnswer: Genesis 6:3 says nothing about God giving Noah 120 years to build the ark. This verse says God gave those men 120 years before they would die in the flood. God gave them space to prevent it by their repentance and reformation. But there is nothing in scripture that says it took 120 years to build the ark. The ark could have been built the last month of the 120 years, scripture does not say.\nAnd as to why God had Noah build an ark, instead of having them migrate to a different land, only God knows. But through history, God has used physical objects to demonstrate spiritual truths.\nFor example, we know that, in Noah's day, the rainfall coming down from \"heaven\" had two different affects. Obviously, it was a destructive force as far as the lost were concerned. They were outside of the ark of safety, and therefore beyond any hope of survival. However, when the water hit the earth it raised the ark. Raising the ark heavenward symbolizes our being \"lifted up to sit in heavenly places in Christ Jesus\" (Ephesians 2:6). The same waters that destroyed the wicked also caused the people of God to be lifted up (thanks to the ark). God poured His judgments upon the ark. He knew it would stand fast. It was built to His plans and specifications. Why would God require the people to build an ark if He did not plan on sending the same judgments upon it as he sent upon the people who were not in it? The Ark was a God given escape route from judgments which fell upon them all. The forty days and nights of the flood are symbolic of God's judgments which fall primarily upon his people and the spiritual ark today. Even though the wicked drowned right away, God still had a purpose for the ark to go through the 40 day and night period in order to picture the spiritual type. The judgments of God had to fall upon even his true people, but He had provided a means which would save them from those judgments.\nAlso, Noah\ufffds ark rested in the seventh month (Genesis 8:4), it rested on the sabbath (Leviticus 23:24,27,34,39,41)! Which shows, spiritually, how we are to rest on the sabbath as well.\nPsalms 104:6-9 seems to describe the flood of Noah. It says \"the waters stood above the mountains.\" If this was a local flood, only the mountains in the area would be covered with water. But Genesis 7:19-20 says that all the mountains \ufffdthat were under the whole heaven, were covered,\ufffd not just some of the mountains in a local area.\nAnswer: First of all, Psalms 104 is about the Creation, not Noah's flood:\nPsalms 104:5-6, \"Who laid the foundations of the earth, that it should not be removed for ever. Thou coveredst it with the deep as with a garment: the waters stood above the mountains.\"\nSecondly, when Genesis 7:19-20 says that all the mountains under heaven were covered, the term \"heaven\" refers to the sky. The Scripture mentions three heavens (2 Corinthians 12:2), not just one! The first heaven is earth's atmosphere where birds fly (Genesis 1:20, Jeremiah 4:25; 34:20, Lamentations 4:19, Zephaniah 1:3). One of the Hebrew words for \ufffdheaven\ufffd is shamayim. This same word is translated as \ufffdsky\ufffd in the Scripture, as can be seen by comparing Genesis 7:3, \"fowls also of the air,\" with Genesis 7:23, \"fowl of the heaven.\" The word \ufffdsky\ufffd and \ufffdheaven\ufffd are used interchangeably from the same Hebrew word (Psalm 8:8). So the first heaven is synonymous with \ufffdheights\ufffd or \ufffdelevations.\ufffd\nHere are other examples to illustrate the first heaven. Exodus 19:20 says the Lord was on top of Mount Sinai when he called Moses up there, and God describes Mount Sinai as \ufffdheaven\ufffd (Exodus 20:22, Deuteronomy 4:36). Here, everything above the ground is called \ufffdheaven\ufffd. Another example of the first heaven is in Amos 9:1-3, where God states that at the time of this judgment, nobody will be able to flee away (verse 1), even \"though they climb up to heaven\" (verse 2). This \"heaven\" is defined in the next verse, verse 3, as climbing to the top of Mount Carmel.\nAnother example is where the Scripture speaks of the dew from heaven (Genesis 27:28,39, Deuteronomy 33:28, Daniel 4:15-33; 5:21). The first heaven, from which dew comes, means the atmosphere, where the clouds and the wind roam. Therefore, everything above the ground is called \ufffdheaven.\"\nAnother Hebrew word for the first heaven is \ufffdshachaq.\ufffd This same word for heaven (Psalm 89:6,37) is also translated as \ufffdsky\ufffd or \ufffdskies\ufffd (Deuteronomy 33:26; Job 37:18; Psalm 18:11), and as \ufffdclouds\ufffd (Job 35:5; 36:28; Psalm 36:5; 68:34, Pro. 3:20; 8:28).\nJesus compared the end of the age with Sodom and Gomorrah and to the time of Noah's flood. 70 AD is spoken in global language, as it was in Noah's time, but it was local. And if the flood was local, it would give that much more evidence to the end of the age being local as well.",

On August 17th, right before school started, students from the honors program donated school supplies to Council Grove Elementary. They received 1,000 dollars in supplies and several cash donations.\nFor 5 years running, Dr. Broyles has had the honors program. Students have to complete specific courses to graduate with an honors degree from SNU. The students are required to complete a service project every other week . Some honors students choose to go to Council Grove Elementary to tutor the children in subjects such as reading and math. Since the time the students have been there, a DHS on-site social worker was helping the school get valuable resources and supplies. They helped them into several programs like Clothing Closet and Food Pantry.\nDue to recent budget cuts, the social worker was taken away. One of the counselors at Council Grove asked Dr. Broyles for supplies. She agreed in confidence. She states \u201cbeing involved in the life of the community and making the smallest differences in children and their families is something that we can all do.\u201d\nHayden Jacobs, a student who donated, states his reasons why he gave and why he mentors. He says, \u201chaving the opportunity to mentor at Council Grove Elementary through SNU Honors Program, I was able to see the firsthand effects of poverty on a child in an educational setting. The necessary school supplies that many of us take for granted, these students don\u2019t have the opportunity to have. Seeing this throughout my time at Council Grove is the main reason why I donated. It is also worth noting that this was only possible due to Dr. Broyles and Dr. Weaver and their willingness to serve in this manner and recognizing the school supply need, as budget cuts eliminated Council Grove\u2019s social worker.\u201d.\nIf you have any donations to offer Council Grove Elementary students, you can take it to the school or take it to Dr. Broyles in the Culture and Communications office on the 2nd floor of Herrick.\nbroyles council grove donation elementary honors program jade school young\nPrev PostStudies Show Your Cell Phone Use Might Be Affecting Your Grades\nNext PostVolunteer Opportunities For Students",

The Electoral Commission of Jamaica (ECJ) is crediting the progress to the co-operation of the public and stakeholders as well as the team of temporary verifiers.\nUnder the project, Electoral Office of Jamaica (EOJ) verifiers have been deployed into constituencies to visit the homes of 1.1 million electors island-wide in an effort to identify electors who have died in the 40 and over age range. Up to December 31, 2018, more than 358,000 electors\u2019 homes have been visited since the project began. This figure represents 32 per cent of the total number of electors to be visited. The exercise to visit the homes of electors is expected to continue until March 2019, after which, the EOJ will continue receiving information from the public and from stakeholders.\nAccording to Director of Elections, Glasspole Brown, the exercise has been advancing smoothly across the island.\n\u201cThe exercise has been productive and continues to progress quite efficiently since we began in November, 2018. Our verifiers have been performing creditably and constituents for the most part have been very co-operative. The inclement weather conditions in some sections of the island were a minor challenge however that has not deterred the project,\u201d he said.\nThe Honourable Dorothy Pine-McLarty, Chairman of the ECJ, says the Commission wishes to express thanks to members of the public who have contributed to the project thus far by sharing information on their deceased relatives and friends.\n\u201cWe want to thank the public for their assistance in identifying dead electors; the support of the public and the information we receive from citizens is significant to the success of this tremendous project. We are appealing to the public to continue to assist us by submitting information for family members, friends or loved ones who have died,\u201d she said.\nOnce electors have been identified as dead, the EOJ will conduct investigations into the reports to confirm the deaths. Electors confirmed as deceased will be gradually removed from the Voters\u2019 List.\nMembers of the public may submit information on dead electors by visiting any EOJ constituency office or sending an e-mail to eojinfo@eoj.com.jm or calling the EOJ toll-free at 888-991-VOTE (8683).",

        "raw_content": "The Importance of Developing and Maintaining Writing Skills During College Time\nPosted by Dante Munnis on June 21, 2016 at 8:58am\nWriting is definitely not for everybody. It is a fact. It is often an extremely hard job, but at the same time it can bring you a lot of benefits. Expressing yourself through writing can be wonderful and could serve to expand your experience, imagination and communication skills.\nBecause writing could be considered as a synthesis of many different set of skills, it is especially important for students in college.\nThe ability to express your knowledge, thoughts and feelings on paper (or screen) can also help your verbal communication with your peers and professors.\nIn the following article we will give you some practical advice of the importance of writing in your college life.\nAdapt Your Writing to Your Skills and Interests\nBefore you start, you should think about your skills and interests and write accordingly. Your writing will go smoothly if you are writing about something you genuinely care about, instead of forcing yourself to write about topics you don\u2019t have interest in.\nIt is also important that you are aware of your abilities. Do you have a particular skill that could contribute to your writing? If so, make sure you put it to a good use.\nTry to Write on a Regular Basis\nMany people do not realize one very important truth about writing: It needs practice. Constant practice if you want your writing to be good. Like everything else, your writing skills need to be honed so that they can shine. Even the most talented writer will get nowhere without practice.\nTry to establish a habit of writing daily. You can write about anything you want, though keeping a personal diary is a great idea for regular writing.\nYou can also write daily posts on your blog (if you have one).\nFind a Style Which Suits You\nExpressing yourself as a writer is also one of the key things about writing. If you do not express yourself properly, there is a good chance your writing will be lifeless, and your potential readers will soon become aware of it.\nExplore a little and try to discover which style of writing best suits your character and personality. If you are a person who likes to tell jokes and good humor, you should use this in your writing. It will be to your advantage as a writer if you use it properly.\nWriting skills help you express yourself, from this reason, you should find a writing style which will help you along the path to express yourself in the best way possible.\nUse Writing to Communicate With Others\nWriting is a great way of communicating with other people. With all the means of modern communication at your disposal, you can use your writing to connect with other people. You can also practice your writing and communication skills by writing for your college newspaper for example. One of the benefits of sharing your writing with others is that you will get to know more about your skills as a writer by getting both positive and negative feedback from your readers.\nNegative critics can still help you realize potential mistakes, while positive ones encourage you to continue writing.\nA skilled writer collects everything which can be of use in his writing. Find a creative way to learn from other people and use that as an idea in your writing. However, pay attention not to use real names or situations. People and events in your life can serve you as inspiration, but be sure to use this subtly.\nRead to Improve Your Writing\nReading is very important for writing. Read books, articles, blog posts and all other material of interest to you. You will learn much about writing techniques and, very importantly, reading expands the breadth of your vocabulary and widens your creative horizon.\nWriting has always been one of the most important creative endeavors known to man. Developing and maintaining good writing skills will undoubtedly improve your prospects in college. As a writer, you get to explore the world by using words, and you acquire knowledge and experience of people and situations without the need to leave your room.\nComment by Leona Hinton on June 23, 2016 at 7:36am\nWriting is not for everybody - I totally agree with this statement! But it doesn't mean you can't learn some writing basics and be a successful student. Constant practice and hard work is the key. Read, think, write, repeat. Use handy tools like http://www.calmlywriter.com/online/, learn how to do a profound research and avoid plagiarism by following this guide: https://unplag.com/materials/free-plagiarism-guide/, develop your skills every single day and you'll get the results. Thanks for the inspiring article, Dante.",

However, around half also speak another regional or minority language native to Italy;[34] although there is disagreement on the total number, according to UNESCO there are approximately 30 languages native to Italy (often misleadingly referred to as \"Italian dialects\").[35][30][36][37]\nIn 2017, in addition to about 55 million Italians in Italy (91% of the Italian national population),[38] Italian-speaking autonomous groups are found in neighbouring nations: almost a quarter million are in Switzerland, a large population is in France,[39] the entire population of San Marino, and there are smaller groups in Slovenia and Croatia, primarily in Istria (Istrian Italians) and Dalmatia (Dalmatian Italians). Because of the wide-ranging diaspora, about 5 million Italian citizens[40] and nearly 80 million people of full or partial Italian ancestry[41] live outside their own homeland, which include the 62.5% of Argentina's population (Italian Argentines)[42], 1/3 of Uruguayans (Italian Uruguayans), 40% of Paraguayans (Italian Paraguayans), 15% of Brazilians (Italian Brazilians, the largest Italian community outside Italy)[43], and people in other parts of Europe bordering Italy, the Americas (such as Italian Americans, Italian Canadians and Italo-Venezuelans among others), Australasia (Italian Australians and Italian New Zealanders), and the Middle East.\nItalians have greatly influenced and contributed to diverse fields, notably the arts and music, science and technology, fashion, cuisine, sports, jurisprudence, banking and business[44] both abroad and worldwide.[45] Furthermore, Italian people are generally known for their localism, both regionalist and municipalist.[46]\n2.2 The Middle Ages\n2.3 Rise of the city-states and the Renaissance\n2.4 The French Revolution and Napoleon\n2.5 The Kingdom of Italy\n2.6 The Italian Republic\n6 Law and justice\n13 Ethnogenesis\n13.1 Ancient history\n13.2 Indo-European\n13.3 Pre-Roman\n13.5 Middle Ages and modern period\n14 Italian diaspora\n15 Autochthonous Italian communities outside Italy\nFurther information: Name of Italy\nLook up Italian or italiano in Wiktionary, the free dictionary.\nThe Latin name Italia[47] according to Strabo's Geographica was used by Greeks to indicate the southwestern tip of the Italian peninsula, corresponding roughly to the current region of Calabria, from the strait of Messina to the line connecting the gulf of Salerno and gulf of Taranto. It most likely originates with Oscan V\u00edteli\u00fa, meaning \"land of young cattle\" (cf. Latin vitulus \"calf\", Umbrian vitlo \"calf\").[48] The bull was a symbol of the southern Italic tribes and was often depicted goring the Roman wolf as a defiant symbol of free Italy during the Social War. The name was later extended to include all the Italian peninsula south of the Rubicon, and still later, by the end of the 1st century BC, to all of the peninsula and beyond (including Istria, Gallia Cisalpina, Raetia and the islands of Sicily, Malta, Sardinia and Corsica).\nLatin Italicus as a substantive meaning \"a man of Italy\" is first recorded in Pliny the Elder, Letters 9.23 (Italicus es an provincialis \"are you an Italian or a provincial?\", referring to the extension of Roman citizenship to all of Italia after 88 BC). The adjective italianus, from which are derived the Italian (and also French and English) name of the Italians is medieval.[49]\nMain article: Population history of Italy\nFurther information: History of Italy\nRoman era[]\nFurther information: Roman Italy, Ancient peoples of Italy, Etruscan civilization, Italic peoples, Magna Graecia, Cisalpine Gaul, and Ancient Rome\nEtruscan Civilization fresco from the Tomb of the Leopards\nExpansion of the territory known as Italy from the establishment of the Roman Republic until Diocletian.\nThe Italian peninsula was divided into a multitude of tribal or ethnic territory prior to the Roman conquest of Italy in the 3rd century BC. After a series of wars between Greeks and Etruscans, the Latins, with Rome as their capital, gained the ascendancy by 272 BC, and completed the conquest of the Italian peninsula by 218 BC.\nThis period of unification was followed by one of conquest in the Merranean, beginning with the First Punic War against Carthage. In the course of the century-long struggle against Carthage, the Romans conquered Sicily, Sardinia and Corsica. Finally, in 146 BC, at the conclusion of the Third Punic War, with Carthage completely destroyed and its inhabitants enslaved, Rome became the dominant power in the Merranean.\nThe process of Italian unification, and the associated Romanization, culminated in 88 BC, when, in the aftermath of the Social War, Rome granted its Italian allies full rights in Roman society, extending Roman citizenship to all Italic peoples.[50]\nFrom its inception, Rome was a republican city-state, but four famous civil conflicts destroyed the republic: Lucius Cornelius Sulla against Gaius Marius and his son (88\u201382 BC), Julius Caesar against Pompey (49\u201345 BC), Marcus Junius Brutus and Gaius Cassius Longinus against Mark Antony and Octavian (43 BC), and Mark Antony against Octavian. Octavian, the final victor (31 BC), was accorded the title of Augustus by the Senate and thereby became the first Roman emperor. Augustus created for the first time an administrative region called Italia with inhabitants called \"Italicus populus\", stretching from the Alps to Sicily: for this reason historians like Emilio Gentile called him Father of Italians.[51]\nIn the 1st century BC, Italia was still a collection of territories with different political statuses. Some cities, called municipia, had some independence from Rome, while others, the coloniae, were founded by the Romans themselves. Around 7 BC, Augustus divided Italy into eleven regiones. During the Crisis of the Third Century the Roman Empire nearly collapsed under the combined pressures of invasions, military anarchy and civil wars, and hyperinflation. In 284, emperor Diocletian restored political stability. The importance of Rome declined, because the city was far from the troubled frontiers. The seats of the Caesars were Augusta Treverorum (on the River Rhine frontier) for Constantius Chlorus and Sirmium (on the River Danube frontier) for Galerius who also resided at Thessaloniki. Under Diocletian, Italy became the Dioecesis Italiciana, subdivided into thirteen provinces, now including Raetia. Under Constantine the Great, Italy became the Praetorian prefecture of Italy (praefectura praetoria Italiae), and was subdivided into two dioceses. Diocesis Italia annonaria (Italy of the annona, governed from Milan) and Diocesis Italia Suburbicaria' (Italy \"under the government of the urbs\", i.e. governed from Rome). Christianity became the Roman state religion in AD 380, under emperor Theodosius I. The last Western emperor, Romulus Augustulus, was deposed in 476 by a Germanic foederati general in Italy, Odoacer. His defeat marked the end of the western part of the Roman Empire, and the end of the political unification of Italy until the establishment of the modern Kingdom of Italy in 1861.\nAugustus, first Roman Emperor.

Then he was attacked and defeated by Theodoric, the king of another Germanic tribe, the Ostrogoths. Theodoric and Odoacer ruled jointly until 493, when Theodoric murdered Odoacer. Theodoric continued to rule Italy with an army of Ostrogoths and a government that was mostly Italian. After the death of Theodoric in 526, the kingdom began to grow weak. By 553, emperor Justinian I expelled the Ostrogoths, and Italy was included into the Byzantine Empire under the Justinian dynasty. Byzantine rule in Italy collapsed again by 572 as a result of invasions by another Germanic tribe, the Lombards. The peninsula was now dominated by the Kingdom of the Lombards, with minor remnants of Byzantine control especially in the south.\nDuring the 5th and 6th centuries, the popes increased their influence in both religious and political matters in Italy. It was usually the popes who led attempts to protect Italy from invasion or to soften foreign rule. For about 200 years the popes opposed attempts by the Lombards, who had captured most of Italy, to take over Rome as well. The popes finally defeated the Lombards with the aid of two Frankish kings, Pepin the Short and Charlemagne. Using land won for them by Pepin in 756, the popes established political rule in what were called the Papal States in central Italy.\nThe Lombards remained a threat to papal power, however, until they were crushed by Charlemagne in 774. Charlemagne added the Kingdom of the Lombards to his vast realm. In recognition of Charlemagne's power, and to cement the church's alliance with him, Charlemagne was crowned emperor of the Romans by Pope Leo III in 800.[52] After Charlemagne's death in 814, his son Louis the Pious succeeded him. Louis divided the empire among his sons, and Frankish Italy became part of Middle Francia, extending as far south as Rome and Spoleto. This Kingdom of Italy became part of the Holy Roman Empire in the 10th century, while southern Italy was under the rule of the Lombard Principality of Benevento or of the Byzantine Empire, in the 12th century absorbed into the Kingdom of Sicily.\nRise of the city-states and the Renaissance[]\nFurther information: Italian city-states and Italian language \u00a7 Origins\nFrom the 11th century on, Italian cities began to grow rapidly in independence and importance. They became centres of political life, banking, and foreign trade. Some became wealthy, and many, including Florence, Rome, Genoa, Milan, Pisa, Siena and Venice, grew into nearly independent city-states. Each had its own foreign policy and political life. They all resisted the efforts of noblemen and emperors to control them.\nThe emergence of identifiable Italian dialects from Vulgar Latin, and as such the possibility of a specifically \"Italian\" ethnic identity, has no clear-cut date, but takes place from roughly 12th century. Modern standard Italian derives from the written vernacular of Tuscan writers of the 12th century. The recognition of Italian vernaculars as literary languages in their own right begins with De vulgari eloquentia, an essay written by Dante Alighieri at the beginning of the 14th century.\nDuring the 14th and 15th centuries, some Italian city-states ranked among the most important powers of Europe. Venice, in particular, had become a major maritime power, and the city-states as a group acted as a conduit for goods from the Byzantine and Islamic empires. In this capacity, they provided great impetus to the developing Renaissance, began in Florence in the 14th century,[53] and led to an unparalleled flourishing of the arts, literature, music, and science.\nHowever, the city-states were often troubled by violent disagreements among their citizens. The most famous division was between the Guelphs and Ghibellines. The Guelphs supported supreme rule by the pope, and the Ghibellines favoured the emperor. City-states often took sides and waged war against each other. During the Renaissance, Italy became an even more attractive prize to foreign conquerors. After some city-states asked for outside help in settling disputes with their neighbours, King Charles VIII of France marched into Italy in 1494. Charles soon withdrew, but he had shown that the Italian peninsula could be conquered because they were not united[citation needed]. After the Italian Wars, Spain emerged as the dominant force in the region. Venice, Milan, and other city-states retained at least some of their former greatness during this period, as did Savoy-Piedmont, protected by the Alps and well defended by its vigorous rulers.\nMarco Polo, Italian merchant traveler who introduced Europeans to Central Asia and China\nChristopher Columbus, early European explorer of the New World.\nAmerigo Vespucci, geographer and traveler from whose name the word America is derived.\nThe French Revolution and Napoleon[]\nMain article: Napoleonic Kingdom of Italy\nLaura Bassi, the first chairwoman of a university in a scientific field of studies.\nThe French Revolution and Napoleon influenced Italy more deeply than they affected any other outside country of Europe. The French Revolution began in 1789 and immediately found supporters among the Italian people. The local Italian rulers, sensing danger in their own country, drew closer to the European kings who opposed France. After the French king was overthrown and France became a republic, secret clubs favouring an Italian republic were formed throughout Italy. The armies of the French Republic began to move across Europe. In 1796, Napoleon Bonaparte led a French army into northern Italy and drove out the Austrian rulers. Once again, Italy was the scene of battle between the Habsburgs and the French. Wherever France conquered, Italian republics were set up, with constitutions and legal reforms. Napoleon made himself emperor in 1804, and part of northern and central Italy was unified under the name of the Kingdom of Italy, with Napoleon as king. The rest of northern and central Italy was annexed by France. Only Sicily and the island of Sardinia, which had been ceded to the House of Savoy in 1720 and had been under their rule ever since, remained free of French control.\nFrench domination lasted less than 20 years, and it differed from previous foreign control of the Italian peninsula. In spite of heavy taxation and frequent harshness, the French introduced representative assemblies and new laws that were the same for all parts of the country. For the first time since the days of ancient Rome, Italians of different regions used the same money and served in the same army. Many Italians began to see the possibility of a united Italy free of foreign control.\nThe Kingdom of Italy[]\nMain article: Kingdom of Italy\nThe Expion of the Thousand.\nAfter the Battle of Waterloo, the reaction set in with the Congress of Vienna allowed the restoration of many of the old rulers and systems under Austrian domination. The concept of nationalism continued strong, however, and sporadic outbreaks led by such inveterate reformers as Giuseppe Mazzini occurred in several parts of the peninsula down to 1848\u201349. This Risorgimento movement was brought to a successful conclusion under the able guidance of Camillo Benso, conte di Cavour, prime minister of Piedmont.\nCavour managed to unite most of Italy under the headship of Victor Emmanuel II of the house of Savoy, and on 17 March 1861, the Kingdom of Italy was proclaimed with Victor Emmanuel II as king. Giuseppe Garibaldi, the popular republican hero of Italy, contributed much to this achievement and to the subsequent incorporation of the Papal States under the Italian monarch. Italian troops occupied Rome in 1870, and in July 1871, this formally became the capital of the kingdom. Pope Pius IX, a longtime rival of Italian kings, considered himself a \"prisoner\" of the Vatican and refused to cooperate with the royal administration. Only in 1929 the Roman Pope accepted the unified Italy with Rome as capital.\nIn the decades following unification, Italy started to create colonies in Africa, and under Benito Mussolini's fascism conquered Ethiopia founding in 1936 the Italian Empire. World War I completed the process of Italian unification, with the annexation of Trieste, Istria, Trentino-Alto Adige and Zara. The Italians grew to 45 millions in 1940 and the land, whose economy had been until that time based upon agriculture, started its industrial development, mainly in northern Italy. But World War II soon destroyed Italy and its colonial power.\nThe Italian Republic[]\nMain article: History of the Italian Republic\nBetween 1945 and 1948, the outlines of a new Italy began to appear. Victor Emmanuel III gave up the throne on 9 May 1946, and his son, Umberto II, became king. On 2 June Italy held its first free election after 20 years of Fascist rule (the so-called Ventennio). Italians chose a republic to replace the monarchy, which had been closely associated with Fascism. They elected a Constituent Assembly to prepare a new democratic constitution. The Assembly approved the constitution in 1947, which came into force since 1 January 1948.\nMain article: Culture of Italy\nThe Pantheon and the Fontana del Pantheon. Roman relics and Roman culture are important national symbols in Italy.\nItalian women dance the tarantella, 1846\nFrom the Magna Graecia period to the 17th century, the inhabitants of the Italian peninsula were at the forefront of Western culture, being the fulcrum and origin of Magna Graecia, Ancient Rome, the Roman Catholic Church, Humanism, the Renaissance, Baroque, the Counter-Reformation and Neoclassicism.\nItaly also became a seat of great formal learning in 1088 with the establishment of the University of Bologna, the first university in the Western World.[54] Many other Italian universities soon followed. For example, the Schola Medica Salernitana, in southern Italy, was the first medical school in Europe.[55] These great centres of learning presaged the Rinascimento: the European Renaissance began in Italy and was fueled throughout Europe by Italian painters, sculptors, architects, scientists, literature masters and music composers. Italy continued its leading cultural role through the Baroque period and into the Romantic period, when its dominance in painting and sculpture diminished but the Italians re-established a strong presence in music.\nItalian explorers and navigators in the 15th and 16th centuries left a perennial mark on human history with the modern \"discovery of America\", due to Christopher Columbus. In addition, the name of the American continents derives from the geographer Amerigo Vespucci's first name. Also noted, is explorer Marco Polo who travelled extensively throughout the eastern world recording his travels.\nDue to comparatively late national unification, and the historical autonomy of the regions that comprise the Italian peninsula, many traditions and customs of the Italians can be identified by their regions of origin. Despite the political and social isolation of these regions, Italy's contributions to the cultural and historical heritage of the Western world remain immense. Famous elements of Italian culture are its opera and music, its iconic gastronomy and food, which are commonly regarded as amongst the most popular in the world,[56] its cinema (with filmmakers such as Federico Fellini, Michelangelo Antonioni, Mario Monicelli, Sergio Leone, Alberto Sordi, etc.), its collections of priceless works of art and its fashion (Milan and Florence are regarded as some of the few fashion capitals of the world).\nMain article: Italian philosophy\nNiccol\u00f2 Machiavelli, the founder of modern political science and ethics.\nOver the ages Italian literature had a vast influence on Western philosophy, beginning with the Greeks and Romans, and going onto Renaissance, The Enlightenment and modern philosophy.\nItalian Medieval philosophy was mainly Christian, and included several important philosophers and theologians such as St Thomas Aquinas. Aquinas was the student of Albert the Great, a brilliant Dominican experimentalist, much like the Franciscan, Roger Bacon of Oxford in the 13th century. Aquinas reintroduced Aristotelian philosophy to Christianity. He believed that there was no contradiction between faith and secular reason. He believed that Aristotle had achieved the pinnacle in the human striving for truth and thus adopted Aristotle's philosophy as a framework in constructing his theological and philosophical outlook. He was a professor at the prestigious University of Paris.\nItaly was also affected by the Enlightenment, a movement which was a consequence of the Renaissance and changed the road of Italian philosophy.[57] Followers of the group often met to discuss in private salons and coffeehouses, notably in the cities of Milan, Rome and Venice. Cities with important universities such as Padua, Bologna and Naples, however, also remained great centres of scholarship and the intellect, with several philosophers such as Giambattista Vico (1668\u20131744) (who is widely regarded as being the founder of modern Italian philosophy)[58] and Antonio Genovesi.[57] Italian society also dramatically changed during the Enlightenment, with rulers such as Leopold II of Tuscany abolishing the death penalty. The church's power was significantly reduced, and it was a period of great thought and invention, with scientists such as Alessandro Volta and Luigi Galvani discovering new things and greatly contributing to Western science.[57] Cesare Beccaria was also one of the greatest Italian Enlightenment writers and now considered one of the fathers of classical criminal theory as well as modern penology.[59] Beccaria is famous for his masterpiece On Crimes and Punishments (1764), a treatise (later translated into 22 languages) that served as one of the earliest prominent condemnations of torture and the death penalty and thus a landmark work in anti-death penalty philosophy.[57]\nSome of the most prominent philosophies and ideologies in Italy during the late 19th and 20th centuries include anarchism, communism, socialism, futurism, fascism, and Christian democracy. Both futurism and fascism (in its original form, now often distinguished as Italian fascism) were developed in Italy at this time. From the 1920s to the 1940s, Italian Fascism was the official philosophy and ideology of the Italian government led by Benito Mussolini. Giovanni Gentile was one of the most significant 20th-century Idealist/Fascist philosophers. Meanwhile, anarchism, communism, and socialism, though not originating in Italy, took significant hold in Italy during the early 20th century, with the country producing numerous significant Italian anarchists, socialists, and communists. In addition, anarcho-communism first fully formed into its modern strain within the Italian section of the First International.[60] Antonio Gramsci remains an important philosopher within Marxist and communist theory, cred with creating the theory of cultural hegemony.\nMain article: Italian literature\nItalian literature may be unearthed back to the Middle Ages, with the most significant poets of the period being Dante Alighieri, Petrarch, and Giovanni Boccaccio. During the Renaissance, humanists such as Leonardo Bruni, Coluccio Salutati and Niccol\u00f2 Machiavelli were great collectors of antique manuscripts. Many worked for the organized Church and were in holy orders (like Petrarch), while others were lawyers and chancellors of Italian cities, like Petrarch's disciple, Salutati, the Chancellor of Florence, and thus had access to book copying workshops. One of the most remarkable poets of the early 19 and 20th century writers was Giacomo Leopardi, who is widely acknowledged to be one of the most radical and challenging thinkers of the 19th century.[61][62] Italo Svevo, the author of La coscienza di Zeno (1923), and Luigi Pirandello (winner of the 1934 Nobel Prize in Literature), who explored the shifting nature of reality in his prose fiction and such plays as Sei personaggi in cerca d'autore (Six Characters in Search of an Author, 1921). Federigo Tozzi and Giuseppe Ungaretti were well-known novelists, critically appreciated only in recent years, and regarded one of the forerunners of existentialism in the European novel.\nGiosu\u00e8 Carducci, first Italian to receive the Nobel Prize in Literature\nLaw and justice[]\nSince the Roman Empire, most western contributions to Western legal culture was the emergence of a class of Roman jurists. During the Middle Ages, St. Thomas Aquinas, the most influential western scholar of the period, integrated the theory of natural law with the notion of an eternal and biblical law.[63] During the Renaissance, Prof. Alberico Gentili, the founder of the science of international law, authored the first treatise on public international law and separated secular law from canon law and Roman Catholic theology. Enlightenment's greatest legal theorists, Cesare Beccaria, Giambattista Vico and Francesco Mario Pagano, are well remembered for their legal works, particularly on criminal law. Francesco Carrara, an advocate of abolition of the death penalty, was one of the foremost European criminal lawyers of the 19th century. During the last periods, numerous Italians have been recognised as the prominent prosecutor magistrates.\nCesare Terranova\nMain articles: Science and technology in Italy and List of Italian inventions\nItalians have been the central figures of countless inventions and discoveries and they made many predominant contributions to various fields. During the Renaissance, Italian polymaths such as Leonardo da Vinci (1452\u20131519), Michelangelo (1475\u20131564) and Leon Battista Alberti (1404\u201372) made important contributions to a variety of fields, including biology, architecture, and engineering. Galileo Galilei (1564\u20131642), a physicist, mathematician and astronomer, played a major role in the Scientific Revolution. His achievements include the invention of the thermometer and key improvements to the telescope and consequent astronomical observations, and ultimately the triumph of Copernicanism over the Ptolemaic model. Other astronomers such as Giovanni Domenico Cassini (1625\u20131712) and Giovanni Schiaparelli (1835\u20131910) made many important discoveries about the Solar System. Physicist Enrico Fermi (1901\u201354), a Nobel prize laureate, led the team in Chicago that built the first nuclear reactor and is also noted for his many other contributions to physics, including the co-development of the quantum theory. He and a number of Italian physicists were forced to leave Italy in the 1930s by Fascist laws against Jews, including Emilio G. Segr\u00e8 (1905\u201389) (who discovered the elements technetium and astatine, and the antiproton),[64] and Bruno Rossi (1905\u201393), a pioneer in Cosmic Rays and X-ray astronomy. Other prominent physicists and scientists include: Amedeo Avogadro (most noted for his contributions to molecular theory, in particular Avogadro's law and the Avogadro constant), Giulio Natta (the inventor of the first catalyst for the production of isotactic propylene and among the fathers of macromolecular chemistry, for which he won the Nobel prize for chemistry along with Karl Ziegler), Evangelista Torricelli (inventor of the barometer), Alessandro Volta (inventor of the electric battery), Guglielmo Marconi (inventor of radio), Antonio Meucci (known for developing a voice-communication apparatus, often cred as the inventor of the first telephone before even Alexander Graham Bell),[65][66] Galileo Ferraris (one of the pioneers of AC power system, invented the first induction motor), Ettore Majorana (who discovered the Majorana fermions), and Carlo Rubbia (1984 Nobel Prize in Physics for work leading to the discovery of the W and Z particles at CERN).\nIn biology, Francesco Redi was the first to challenge the theory of spontaneous generation by demonstrating that maggots come from eggs of flies and he described 180 parasites in detail; Marcello Malpighi founded microscopic anatomy; Lazzaro Spallanzani conducted important research in bodily functions, animal reproduction, and cellular theory; Camillo Golgi, whose many achievements include the discovery of the Golgi complex, paved the way to the acceptance of the Neuron doctrine; Rita Levi-Montalcini discovered the nerve growth factor (awarded 1986 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine); Angelo Ruffini first described the Ruffini endings and was known for his work in histology and embryology; Filippo Pacini discovered the Pacinian corpuscles and was the first to isolate the cholera bacillus Vibrio cholerae in 1854, before Robert Koch's more widely accepted discoveries 30 years later. In chemistry, Giulio Natta received the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1963 for his work on high polymers. Giuseppe Occhialini received the Wolf Prize in Physics for the discovery of the pion or pi-meson decay in 1947.\nLeonardo da Vinci, a father of paleontology and architecture, has been the most influential polymath.\nGalileo Galilei, the father of science and modern physics, one of the key figures in astronomy, pioneered the thermometer and made significant works in other fields of science.\nElena Cornaro Piscopia, the first woman to obtain a doctoral degree.\nEvangelista Torricelli, the inventor of barometer, made various advances in optics and work on the method of indivisibles.\nAlessandro Volta, the inventor of the electrical battery and discover of methane, did substantial work with electric currents.\nGuglielmo Marconi, inventor of the radio.\nEnrico Fermi, builder of the first nuclear reactor.\nMathematics[]\nDuring the Middle Ages, Leonardo Fibonacci, the greatest Western mathematician of the Middle Ages, introduced the Hindu\u2013Arabic numeral system to the Western World and he also introduced the sequence of Fibonacci numbers which he used as an example in Liber Abaci. Gerolamo Cardano, introduced the probability and established the binomial coefficients and binomial theorem and he also invented some essential onjects. During the Renaissance, Luca Pacioli established accounting to the world, published the first work on Double-entry bookkeeping system. Galileo Galilei made several significant advances in mathematics. Bonaventura Cavalieri's works anticipated integral calculus and popularized logarithms in Italy. Jacopo Riccati, who was also a jurist, invented the Riccati equation. Maria Gaetana Agnesi, the first woman to write a mathematics handbook, become the first woman Mathematics Professor at a University. Gian Francesco Malfatti, posed the problem of carving three circular columns out of a triangular block of marble, using as much of the marble as possible, and conjectured that three mutually-tangent circles inscribed within the triangle would provide the optimal solution, which are now known as Malfatti circles. Joseph-Louis Lagrange, who was one of the most influential mathematician of his time, made essential works to analysis, number theory, and both classical and celestial mechanics. Gregorio Ricci-Curbastro invented the Tensor calculus and made meaningful works on algebra, infinitesimal analysis, and papers on the theory of real numbers.[67] Giuseppe Peano, founded the mathematical logic, the set theory, and alongside John Venn drew the first Venn diagram. Gregorio Ricci-Curbastro is well known for his invention on absolute differential calculus (tensor calculus), further developed by Tullio Levi-Civita, and its applications to the theory of relativity. Beniamino Segre is one of the main contributor of algebraic geometry and one of the founders of finite geometry. Paolo Ruffini is cred for his innovative work in mathematics, creating \"Ruffini's rule\" and co-creating the Abel\u2013Ruffini theorem. Ennio de Giorgi, a Wolf Prize in Mathematics recipient in 1990, solved Bernstein's problem about minimal surfaces and the 19th Hilbert problem on the regularity of solutions of Elliptic partial differential equations.\nJacopo Francesco Riccati\nGian Francesco Malfatti\nBeniamino Segre\nMain article: Architecture of Italy\nAs Italy is home to the greatest number of UNESCO World Heritage Sites (51) to date and it is home to half the world's great art treasures,[68] Italians are known for their significant architectural achievements,[69] such as the construction of arches, domes and similar structures during ancient Rome, the founding of the Renaissance architectural movement in the late-14th to 16th centuries, and being the homeland of Palladianism, a style of construction which inspired movements such as that of Neoclassical architecture, and influenced the designs which noblemen built their country houses all over the world, notably in the UK, Australia and the US during the late 17th to early 20th centuries. Several of the finest works in Western architecture, such as the Colosseum, the Milan Cathedral and Florence cathedral, the Leaning Tower of Pisa and the building designs of Venice are found in Italy.\nItalian architecture has also widely influenced the architecture of the world. British architect Inigo Jones, inspired by the designs of Italian buildings and cities, brought back the ideas of Italian Renaissance architecture to 17th-century England, being inspired by Andrea Palladio.[70] Additionally, Italianate architecture, popular abroad since the 19th century, was used to describe foreign architecture which was built in an Italian style, especially modelled on Renaissance architecture.\nMain article: Music of Italy\nHistory's most successful tenors, Enrico Caruso (above) and Luciano Pavarotti (below)\nBartolomeo Cristofori, the inventor of the piano\nFrom folk music to classical, music has always played an important role in Italian culture. Instruments associated with classical music, including the piano and violin, were invented in Italy, and many of the prevailing classical music forms, such as the symphony, concerto, and sonata, can trace their roots back to innovations of 16th- and 17th-century Italian music. Italians invented many of the musical instruments, including the piano and violin.\nMost notable Italians composers include the Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina, Claudio Monteverdi, the Baroque composers Scarlatti, Corelli and Vivaldi, the Classical composers Paganini and Rossini, and the Romantic composers Verdi and Puccini, whose operas, including La boh\u00e8me, Tosca, Madama Butterfly, and Turandot, are among the most frequently worldwide performed in the standard repertoire.[71][72] Modern Italian composers such as Berio and Nono proved significant in the development of experimental and electronic music. While the classical music tradition still holds strong in Italy, as evidenced by the fame of its innumerable opera houses, such as La Scala of Milan and San Carlo of Naples, and performers such as the pianist Maurizio Pollini and the late tenor Luciano Pavarotti, Italians have been no less appreciative of their thriving contemporary music scene.\nItalians are amply known as the mothers of opera.[73] Italian opera was believed to have been founded in the early 17th century, in Italian cities such as Mantua and Venice.[73] Later, works and pieces composed by native Italian composers of the 19th and early 20th centuries, such as Rossini, Bellini, Donizetti, Verdi and Puccini, are among the most famous operas ever written and today are performed in opera houses across the world. La Scala operahouse in Milan is also renowned as one of the best in the world. Famous Italian opera singers include Enrico Caruso and Alessandro Bonci.\nIntroduced in the early 1920s, jazz took a particularly strong foothold among Italians, and remained popular despite the xenophobic cultural policies of the Fascist regime. Today, the most notable centres of jazz music in Italy include Milan, Rome, and Sicily. Later, Italy was at the forefront of the progressive rock movement of the 1970s, with bands like PFM and Goblin. Italy was also an important country in the development of disco and electronic music, with Italo disco, known for its futuristic sound and prominent usage of synthesizers and drum machines, being one of the earliest electronic dance genres, as well as European forms of disco aside from Euro disco (which later went on to influence several genres such as Eurodance and Nu-disco).\nProducers and songwriters such as Giorgio Moroder, who won three Academy Awards for his music, were highly influential in the development of EDM (electronic dance music). Today, Italian pop music is represented annually with the Sanremo Music Festival, which served as inspiration for the Eurovision song contest, and the Festival of Two Worlds in Spoleto. Singers such as pop diva Mina, classical crossover artist Andrea Bocelli, Grammy winner Laura Pausini, and European chart-topper Eros Ramazzotti have attained international acclaim.\nCinema[]\nMain articles: Cinema of Italy and List of Italian actors\nFederico Fellini, recognized as one of the greatest and most influential filmmakers of all time.\nSince the development of the Italian film industry in the early 1900s, Italian filmmakers and performers have, at times, experienced both domestic and international success, and have influenced film movements throughout the world.\nFollowing the Fascist era, characterized by the Telefoni Bianchi genre, they got international critical acclaim through the Neorealist genre, and starting from the 1960s through the Commedia all'italiana genre as well as through a number of auteurs such as Vittorio De Sica, Federico Fellini, Pier Paolo Pasolini, Luchino Visconti, Michelangelo Antonioni and Roberto Rossellini.[74] Actresses such as Sophia Loren, Giulietta Masina and Gina Lollobrigida achieved international stardom during this period.[75]\nSince the early 1960s they also popularized a large number of genres and subgenres, such as Peplum, Macaroni Combat, Musicarello, Poliziotteschi and Commedia sexy all'italiana.[74] The Spaghetti Western achieved popularity in the mid-1960s, peaking with Sergio Leone's Dollars Trilogy, which featured enigmatic scores by composer Ennio Morricone. Erotic Italian thrillers, or Giallos, produced by directors such as Mario Bava and Dario Argento in the 1970s, influenced the horror genre worldwide. In recent years, directors such as Ermanno Olmi, Bernardo Bertolucci, Giuseppe Tornatore, Gabriele Salvatores, Roberto Benigni, Matteo Garrone, Paolo Sorrentino and Luca Guadagnino brought critical acclaim back to Italian cinema.\nSo far, Italy has won 14 Academy Awards for Best Foreign Language Film, the most of any country, and 12 Palme d'Or, the second-most of any country.\nMain article: Sport in Italy\nMotorcycle racer Giacomo Agostini\nGianluigi Buffon, the highest-priced goalkeeper and the most capped player for the Italian national team\nItalians have a long tradition in sport. In numerous sports, both individual and team, Italy has been very successful.\nAssociation football is the most popular sport in Italy. Italy is one of the most successful national teams in association football having four FIFA World Cups, one UEFA European Championship and one Olympic tournament. Amongst the players who won the FIFA World Cup there are Giuseppe Meazza, Silvio Piola (to date the highest goalscorer in Italian first league history), Dino Zoff, Paolo Rossi, Marco Tardelli, Bruno Conti, Gianluigi Buffon, Fabio Cannavaro, Alessandro Del Piero, Andrea Pirlo and Francesco Totti. Amongst those who did not win the World Cup but laureated as European champions are Gianni Rivera, Luigi Riva (to date Italy's leading scorer of all time), Sandro Salvadore, Giacomo Bulgarelli, Pietro Anastasi and Giacinto Facchetti. Other prominent players who achieved success at club level are Giampiero Boniperti, Romeo Benetti, Roberto Boninsegna, Roberto Bettega, Roberto Baggio and Paolo Maldini. Of the above-mentioned, the goalkeeper Dino Zoff, who served in the National team from 1968 to 1983, is to date the only Italian player to have won both the European championship (in 1968) and the FIFA World Cup (in 1982), apart from being the oldest winner ever of the World Cup. At club level, to date Italy has won a total of 12 European Cup / Champions' Leagues, 9 UEFA Cups / UEFA Europa League and 7 UEFA Cup Winners' Cup.\nMotorcycle racers such as Giacomo Agostini and Valentino Rossi are recognized as some of the greatest sportstars of all time. Federica Pellegrini, one of the few female swimmers to have set world records in more than one event has been one of the world's most successful swimmers. Italian athletes have won 549 medals at the Summer Olympic Games, and another 114 medals at the Winter Olympic Games. Jessica Rossi scored a Shooting sport world record of 75 in the qualification and a world record of 99. As for Olympic games, 663 Italians won medals, particularly in Swordsmanship, which makes them the 6th most successful ethnic group in Olympic history. There are more than 2,000,000 Italian skiers in the world, most of them in the north and in the centre.[clarification needed] Italian skiers received good results in the Winter Olympic Games, World Cup, and World Championships.\nItalians are the second of the most who have won the World Cycling Championship more than any other country after Belgium. The Giro d'Italia is a world-famous long-distance cycling race held every May, and constitutes one of the three Grand Tours, along with the Tour de France and the Vuelta a Espa\u00f1a, each of which last approximately three weeks. Tennis has a significant following near courts and on television. Italian professional tennis players are almost always in the top 100 world ranking of male and female players. Beach tennis with paddle racquet was invented by Italians, and is practised by many people across the country. Volleyball is played by a lot of amateur players and professional players compete in the Italian Volleyball League, regarded as the best and most difficult volleyball league in the world. The male and female national teams are often in the top 4 ranking of teams in the world. Athletics is a popular sport for Italians, as the Italian World and Olympic champions are very celebrated people. In wrestling, one of the most remarkable wrestlers is Bruno Sammartino, who held the record of the WWWF (World) Heavyweight Championship for over 11 years across two reigns, the first of which is the longest single reign in the promotion's history.\nRugby union was imported from France in the 1910s and has been regularly played since the 1920s; the National team has progressed slowly but significantly during the decades and thanks to the good results achieved in the second half of the 1990s, when they managed to beat historical teams like Scotland, Ireland and eventually France, Italy gained the admission to the Five Nation Championship, later renamed Six Nations; Italy has taken part to the Rugby World Cup since its inauguration in 1987 and never missed an ion though to date has never gone past the group stage.\nEthnogenesis[]\nFurther information: Genetic history of Europe and Genetic history of Italy\nDue to historic demographic shifts in the Italian peninsula throughout history, modern Italians have mixed origins of other European groups. This includes pre-Indo-Europeans (such as the Etruscans and the Ligures)[76] and pre-Roman peoples (such as the Celts), as well as Italic peoples (such as the Latino-Faliscans, the Osco-Umbrians, the Sicels and the Veneti), and significantly from non-Latin Greeks. The majority of Italians originate from these two primary elements and, like much of the Romance-speaking Southern Europe, share a common Latin heritage and history.\nAll indigenous, or Italic, Italians have a similar genetic profile, albeit with regional differences, and in fact, in a recent study about shared genetic ancestors, were found to have one of the highest rates of endogamy out of European nations and regions. All indigenous Italians share Italic, Neolithic Farmers and Gedrosian/Greek-Anatolian ancestry; the Italic is the major cultural unifier.[clarification needed] While the Neolithic Farmer and Greco-Anatolian elements are highest in the centre, the south, Veneto and Sardinia. Only the far north (Lombardy, Piedmont, Liguria, Trentino-Alto-Adige) has some significant Gallic/Celtic ancestry and linguistic influence, while the far south (Sicily, most of Calabria, southern Apulia/Salento, coastal Campania) has some specifically Greek admixture and linguistic influence. From Tuscany to Basilicata is essentially the core Italian (Italic-Neolithic Farmer-Anatolian mixture), both genetically and linguistically (this region was historically only settled by Italic tribes and Etruscans, and has very few linguistic influence from either Gallic Celts or Greeks).[citation needed]\nAccording to the founding myth of Rome, Romulus and Remus descended from the Latin kings of Alba Longa, themselves descended from Trojan prince Aeneas, who fled to the Latium after the destruction of Troy by the Greeks. If there is any truth in the myth (as there usually is), the Trojans haplogroup might have emerged in central Italy circa 1200 BCE. The Etruscans, who are thought to have originated in western Anatolia, not far from Troy, also blended with other haplogroups. Nowadays this haplogroup is the second most common subclade in Italy, although well behind the dominant unifying genetic profile, it has a remarkably uniform distribution over all the Italian peninsula, making between 5% and 10% of the male lineages. It is found at a slightly higher frequency in Campania and Calabria due to the Greek colonies, and decreases under 5% of the population only around the Alps.[citation needed]\nThe Italians are a Southwestern European population, with origins predominantly from Southern and Western Europe.\nThe earliest modern humans inhabiting Italy are believed to have been Paleolithic peoples that may have arrived in the Italian Peninsula as early as 35,000 to 40,000 years ago. Italy is believed to have been a major Ice-age refuge from which Paleolithic humans later colonized Europe. Migrations from what is now Italy during the Paleolithic and Mesolithic link modern Italians to the populations of much of Western Europe and particularly the British Isles and Atlantic Europe.\nThe Neolithic colonization of Europe from Western Asia and the Middle East beginning around 10,000 years ago reached Italy, as most of the rest of the continent although, according to the demic diffusion model, its impact was most in the southern and eastern regions of the European continent.[77]\nIndo-European[]\nStarting in the 4th millennium BC as well as in the Bronze Age, the first wave of migrations into Italy of speakers of Indo-European languages occurred, with the appearance of the Remedello, the Rinaldone and the Gaudo cultures. These were later (from the 18th century BC) followed by others that can be identified as Italo-Celts, with the appearance of the Proto-Celtic Canegrate culture[78] and the Proto-Italic Terramare culture,[79] both deriving from the Proto-Italo-Celtic Tumulus and Unetice cultures.\nLater, Celtic La T\u00e8ne and Hallstatt cultures have been documented in Italy as far south as Umbria[80][81] and Latium[82] in Central Italy, also inhabited by the Rutuli and the Umbri, closely related to the Ligures.[83] Italics occupied Southern and Central Italy: the \"West Italic\" group (including the Latins) were the first wave. They had cremation burials and possessed advanced metallurgical techniques. Major tribes included the Latins and Falisci in Lazio; the Oenotrians and Italii in Calabria; the Ausones, Aurunci and Opici in Campania; and perhaps Sicels in Sicily. They were followed, and largely displaced by East Italic (Osco-Umbrians) group.[84]\nPre-Roman[]\nBy the beginning of the Iron Age the Etruscans emerged as the dominant civilization on the Italian peninsula. The Etruscans, whose primary home was in Etruria (modern Tuscany), inhabited a large part of central and northern Italy extending as far north as the Po Valley and as far south as Capua.[85] Traditionally the Etruscans were said to have migrated to Italy from Anatolia, but modern archaeological and genetic research suggests descent from the indigenous Villanovan culture of Italy.[86][87][88]\nThe Ligures are said to have been one of the oldest populations in Italy and Western Europe,[89] possibly of Pre-Indo-European origin.[90] According to Strabo they were not Celts, but later became influenced by the Celtic culture of their neighbours, and thus are sometimes referred to as Celticized Ligurians or Celto-Ligurians.[91] Their language had affinities with both Italic (Latin and the Osco-Umbrian languages) and Celtic (Gaulish). They primarily inhabited the regions of Liguria, Piedmont, northern Tuscany, western Lombardy, western Emilia-Romagna and northern Sardinia, but are believed to have once occupied an even larger portion of ancient Italy as far south as Sicily.[92][93] They were also settled in Corsica and in the Provence region along the southern coast of modern France.\nDuring the Iron Age, prior to Roman rule, the peoples living in the area of modern Italy and the islands were:\nEtruscans (Camunni, Lepontii, Raeti);\nLigures (Apuani, Bagienni, Briniates, Corsi, Friniates, Garuli, Hercates, Ilvates, Insubres, Orobii, Laevi, Lapicini, Marici, Statielli, Taurini);\nItalics (Latins, Falisci, Marsi, Umbri, Volsci, Marrucini, Osci, Aurunci, Ausones, Campanians, Paeligni, Sabines, Bruttii, Frentani, Lucani, Samnites, Pentri, Caraceni, Caudini, Hirpini, Aequi, Fidenates, Hernici, Picentes, Vestini, Morgeti, Sicels, Veneti);\nIapygians (Messapians, Daunians, Peucetians);\nGauls (Ausones, Boii, Carni, Cenomani, Graioceli, Lingones, Segusini, Senones, Salassi, Vertamocorii);\nGreeks of Magna Graecia, in southern Italy;\nSardinians (Nuragic tribes);\nItaly was, throughout the pre-Roman period, predominantly inhabited by Italic tribes who occupied the modern regions of Lazio, Umbria, Marche, Abruzzo, Molise, Campania, Basilicata, Calabria, Apulia and Sicily. Sicily, in addition to having an Italic population in the Sicels, also was inhabited by the Sicani and the Elymians, of uncertain origin. The Veneti, most often regarded as an Italic tribe,[94] chiefly inhabited the Veneto, but extended as far east as Friuli-Venezia Giulia and Istria, and had colonies as far south as Lazio.[95][96]\nBeginning in the 8th century BC, Greeks arrived in Italy and founded cities along the coast of southern Italy and eastern Sicily, which became known as Magna Graecia (\"Greater Greece\"). The Greeks were frequently at war with the native Italic tribes, but nonetheless managed to Hellenize and assimilate a good portion of the indigenous population located along eastern Sicily and the Southern coasts of the Italian mainland.[97][98] According to Beloch the number of Greek citizens in south Italy at its greatest extent reached only 80,000\u201390,000, while the local people subjected by the Greeks were between 400,000\u2013600,000.[99][100] By the 4th and 3rd century BC, Greek power in Italy was challenged and began to decline, and many Greeks were pushed out of peninsular Italy by the native Oscan, Brutti and Lucani tribes.[101]\nThe Gauls crossed the Alps and invaded northern Italy in the 4th and 3rd centuries BC, settling in the area that became known as Cisalpine Gaul (\"Gaul on this side of the Alps\"). Although named after the Gauls, the region was mostly inhabited by indigenous tribes, namely the Ligures, Etruscans, Veneti and Euganei. Estimates by Beloch and Brunt suggest that in the 3rd century BC the Gaulish settlers of north Italy numbered between 130,000\u2013140,000 out of a total population of about 1.4 million.[100][102][102] According to Pliny and Livy, after the invasion of the Gauls, some of the Etruscans living in the Po Valley sought refuge in the Alps and became known as the Raeti.[103][104] The Raeti inhabited the region of Trentino-Alto Adige, as well as eastern Switzerland and Tyrol in western Austria. The Ladins of north-eastern Italy and the Romansh people of Switzerland are said to be descended from the Raeti.[105]\nRoman[]\nMain article: Colonia (Roman)\nMap of roman coloniae during the second century in Italy\nThe Romans\u2014who according to legend originally consisted of three ancient tribes: Latins, Sabines and Etruscans[106]\u2014would go on to conquer the whole Italian peninsula. During the Roman period hundreds of cities and colonies were established throughout Italy, including Florence, Turin, Como, Pavia, Padua, Verona, Vicenza, Trieste and many others. Initially many of these cities were colonized by Latins, but later also included colonists belonging to the other Italic tribes who had become Latinized and joined to Rome. After the Roman conquest of Italy \"the whole of Italy had become Latinized\".[107]\nAfter the Roman conquest of Cisalpine Gaul and the widespread confiscations of Gallic territory, much of the Gaulish population was killed or expelled.[108][109] Many colonies were established by the Romans in the former Gallic territory of Cisalpine Gaul, which was then settled by Roman and Italic people. These colonies included Bologna, Modena, Reggio Emilia, Parma, Piacenza, Cremona and Forl\u00ec. According to Strabo:\n\"The greater part of the country used to be occupied by the Boii, Ligures, Senones, and Gaesatae; but since the Boii have been driven out, and since both the Gaesatae and the Senones have been annihilated, only the Ligurian tribes and the Roman colonies are left.\"[109]\nThe Boii, the most powerful and numerous of the Gallic tribes, were expelled by the Romans after 191 BC and settled in Bohemia.[110]\nPopulation movement and exchange among people from different regions was not uncommon during the Roman period. Latin colonies were founded at Ariminum in 268 and at Firmum in 264,[111] while large numbers of Picentes, who previously inhabited the region, were moved to Paestum and settled along the river Silarus in Campania. Between 180\u2013179 BC, 47,000 Ligures belonging to the Apuani tribe were removed from their home along the modern Ligurian-Tuscan border and deported to Samnium, an area corresponding to inland Campania, while Latin colonies were established in their place at Pisa, Lucca and Luni.[112] Such population movements contributed to the rapid Romanization and Latinization of Italy.[113]\nMiddle Ages and modern period[]\nLombard (Northern Italian) colonies of Sicily: in light blue: the cities where Gallo-Italic language is spoken today. In dark blue: the cities where there is a good influence of the Gallo-Italic language. In purple: ancient Gallo-Italic colonies, the influence in these cities is variable, also some districts of Messina were colonized.\nA large Germanic confederation of Scirii, Heruli, Turcilingi and Rugians, led by Odoacer, invaded and settled Italy in 476.[114] They were preceded by 120,000 Alemanni, including 30,000 warriors with their families, who settled in the Po Valley in 371,[115] and by 100,000 Burgundians who settled between North Western Italy and Southern France in 443.[116] The Germanic tribe of the Ostrogoths led by Theoderic the Great conquered Italy and presented themselves as upholders of Latin culture, mixing Roman culture together with Gothic culture, in order to legitimize their rule amongst Roman subjects who had a long-held belief in the superiority of Roman culture over foreign \"barbarian\" Germanic culture.[117] The number of Goths under Theodoric has been variously estimated between 200,000 and 250,000.[118] Since Italy had a population of several million, the Goths did not constitute a significant addition to the local population.[119] At the height of their power, there were about 200,000 Ostrogoths in a population of 6 or 7 million.[116][120] Before them, Radagaisus led between 200,000 and 400,000 Goths in Italy in 406 perhaps too high as ancient sources routinely inflated the numbers of tribal invaders.[121] After the Gothic War, which devastated the local population, the Ostrogoths were defeated. But in the sixth century, another Germanic tribe known as the Longobards invaded Italy, which in the meantime had been reconquered by the East Roman or Byzantine Empire. The Longobards were a small minority compared to the roughly four million people in Italy at the time.[122] They were no more than 500,000 settlers \u2013 10-15% of the total population.[122][123] They were later followed by the Bavarians and the Franks, who conquered and ruled most of Italy. Numerous groups of Slavs and Bulgars, pushed by the Khazars, settled in the Italian peninsula between the 7th and the 8th centuries.[124][125][126]\nFollowing Roman rule, Sicily and Sardinia were conquered by the Vandals, then by the Ostrogoths, and finally by the Byzantines. At one point, while Sardinia grew increasingly autonomous from Byzantine rule to the point of organizing itself into four sovereign Kingdoms or \"Judgedoms\" (Judicati) that would last until the Aragonese conquest in the 15th century. In 687, Sicily became the Byzantine Theme of Sicily, during the course of the Arab-Byzantine wars Sicily gradually came became the Emirate of Sicily (831\u20131072). Later a series of conflicts with the Normans; would bring about the establishment of the County of Sicily, and eventually the Kingdom of Sicily, the Lombards of Sicily (not to be confused with the Longobards), coming from the Northern Italy, settled in the central and eastern part of Sicily. After the marriage between the Norman Roger I of Sicily with Adelaide del Vasto, descendant of Aleramici family, many Northern Italian colonisers (known collectively as Lombards) left their homeland, in the Aleramici's possessions in Piedmont and Liguria (then known as Lombardy), to settle on the island of Sicily.[127][127][128]\nBefore them, other Lombards arrived in Sicily, with an expion departed in 1038, led by the Byzantine commander George Maniakes,[129] which for a very short time managed to snatch Messina and Syracuse from Arab rule. The Lombards who arrived with the Byzantines settled in Maniace, Randazzo and Troina, while a group of Genoese and other Lombards from Liguria settled in Caltagirone.[130]\nMap of Tuscan settlements in Sicily.\nDuring the subsequent Swabian rule under the Holy Roman Emperor Frederick II, who spent most of his life as king of Sicily in his court in Palermo, Muslims was progressively eradicated until the massive deportation of the last Muslims of Sicily.[131] As a result of Arab expulsion, many towns across Sicily were left depopulated. By the 12th century, Swabian kings granted immigrants from northern Italy (particularly Piedmont, Lombardy and Liguria), Latium and Tuscany in central Italy, and French regions of Normandy, Provence and Brittany (all collectively known as Lombards.)[132][133] settlement into Sicily, re-establishing the Latin element into the island, a legacy which can be seen in the many Gallo-Italic dialects and towns found in the interior and western parts of Sicily, brought by these settlers.[134] It is believed that the Lombard immigrants in Sicily over a couple of centuries were a total of about 200,000.[135][136][137]\nAn estimated 20,000 Swabians and 40,000 Normans settled in the southern half of Italy during this period.[138] Additional Tuscan migrants settled in Sicily after the Florentine conquest of Pisa in 1406.[139]\nSome of the expelled Muslims were deported to Lucera (Lug\u00earah, as it was known in Arabic). Their numbers eventually reached between 15,000 and 20,000,[140] leading Lucera to be called Lucaera Saracenorum because it represented the last stronghold of Islamic presence in Italy. The colony thrived for 75 years until it was sacked in 1300 by Christian forces under the command of the Angevin Charles II of Naples. The city's Muslim inhabitants were exiled or sold into slavery,[141] with many finding asylum in Albania across the Adriatic Sea.[142] After the expulsions of Muslims in Lucera, Charles II replaced Lucera's Saracens with Christians, chiefly Burgundian and Proven\u00e7al soldiers and farmers,[143] following an initial settlement of 140 Proven\u00e7al families in 1273.[144] A remnant of the descendants of these Proven\u00e7al colonists, still speaking a Franco-Proven\u00e7al dialect, has survived until the present day in the villages of Faeto and Celle di San Vito.\nThe founding fathers of Italy and Young Europe, Giuseppe Garibaldi (left) and Giuseppe Mazzini (right)\nSubstantial migrations of Lombards to Naples, Rome and Palermo, continued in the 16th and 17th centuries, driven by the constant overcrowding in the north.[145][146] Beside that, minor but significant settlements of Slavs (the so-called Schiavoni) and Arbereshe in Italy have been recorded.\nThe geographical and cultural proximity with Southern Italy pushed Albanians to cross the Strait of Otranto, especially after Skanderbeg's death and the conquest of the Balkans by the Ottomans. In defense of the Christian religion and in search of soldiers loyal to the Spanish crown, Alfonso V of Aragon, also king of Naples, invited Arbereshe soldiers to move to Italy with their families. In return the king guaranteed to Albanians lots of land and a favourable taxation.\nArbereshe and Schiavoni were used to repopulate abandoned villages or villages whose population had died in earthquakes, plagues and other catastrophes. Albanian soldiers were also used to quell rebellions in Calabria.\nMajor Slavic colonies were in Friuli,[147] Veneto, Marche, Sicily[148] and throughout the Kingdom of Naples (including Apulia, Molise, Abruzzo, Calabria, Terra di Lavoro and Campania).[149]\nBetween the Late Middle Ages and early modern period, there were several waves of immigration of Albanians into Italy, in addition to another in the 20th century.[150] The descendants of these Albanian emigrants, many still retaining the Albanian language, the Arb\u00ebresh dialect, have survived throughout Italy, numbering about 260,000 people,[151] with roughly 80,000 to 100,000 speaking the Albanian language.[152][153]\nIn this period, large groups of ethnic Bavarians and Swabians settled in the northern half of the country. Most of them were quickly assimilated in the native population. Nevertheless, in 1882, 100,000 German speakers were still living in the Po valley.[154]\nItalian diaspora[]\nMain articles: Italian diaspora and Oriundo\nNapoleon, the most notable Italo-French personality, and Pope Francis, Argentine of Italian ancestry.[155]\nItalian migration outside Italy took place, in different migrating cycles, for centuries.[156] A diaspora in high numbers took place after its unification in 1861 and continued through 1914 with the emergence of the First World War. This rapid outflow and migration of Italian people across the globe can be attributed to factors such as the internal economic slump that emerged alongside its unification, family and the industrial boom that occurred in the world surrounding Italy.[157][158]\nItaly after its unification did not seek nationalism but instead sought work.[157] Sadly, a unified state did not automatically constitute a sound economy. The global economic expansion, ranging from Britain's Industrial Revolution in the late 18th and through mid 19th century, to the use of slave labor in the Americas did not hit Italy until much later (with the exception of the \"industrial triangle\" between Milan, Genoa and Turin)[157] This lag resulted in a deficit of work available in Italy and the need to look for work elsewhere.The mass industrialization and urbanization globally resulted in higher labor mobility and the need for Italians to stay anchored to the land for economic support declined.[158]\nMoreover, better opportunities for work were not the only incentive to move; family played a major role and the dispersion of Italians globally. Italians were more likely to migrate to countries where they had family established beforehand.[158] These ties are shown to be stronger in many cases than the monetary incentive for migration, taking into account a familial base and possibly an Italian migrant community, greater connections to find opportunities for work, housing etc.[158] Thus, thousands of Italian men and women left Italy and dispersed around the world and this trend only increased as World War I approached.\nNotably, it was not as if Italians had never migrated before, internal migration between North and Southern Italy before unification was common. Northern Italy caught on to the global industrialization sooner than Southern Italy, therefore it was considered more modern technologically, and tended to be inhabited by the bourgeoisie.[159] Alternatively, rural and agro-intensive Southern Italy was seen as economically backward and was mainly populated by lower class peasantry.[159] Given these disparities, prior to unification (and arguably after) the two sections of Italy, North and South were essentially seen by Italians and other nations as separate countries. So, migrating from one part of Italy to next could be seen as though they were indeed migrating to another country or even continent.[159]\nFurthermore, large-scale migrations phenomena did not recede until the late 1920s, well into the Fascist regime, and one last wave can be observed after the end of the Second World War.\nOver 80 million people of full or part Italian descent live outside Europe, with over 60 million living in South America (mostly in Brazil, which has the largest number of Italian descendants outside Italy,[43] and Argentina, where over 62.5% of the population have at least one Italian ancestor)[42], 20 million living in North America (United States and Canada) and 1 million in Oceania (Australia and New Zealand). Others live in other parts of Europe (primarily The United Kingdom, Germany, France and Switzerland). Most Italian citizens living abroad live in other nations of the European Union.\nIn recent years, The United Arab Emirates has maintained a desirable destination for Italian immigrants, with the number of Italians leaving for the UAE having gone up 40% between 2005 and 2007. currently, over 10,000 Italians live in the United Arab Emirates.\nRegarding the diaspora, there are many individuals of Italian descent who are possibly eligible for Italian citizenship by method of jus sanguinis which is from the Latin meaning \"by blood.\" However, on a bases of just having Italian ancestry is not enough to qualify for Italian citizenship. To qualify, one must have at least one Italian born citizen ancestor who, after emigrating from Italy to another country, had passed citizenship onto their children before they naturalized as citizens of their newly adopted country. The Italian government does not have a rule regarding on how many generations born outside of Italy can claim Italian nationality.[160]\nAutochthonous Italian communities outside Italy[]\nMain articles: Istrian Italians, Dalmatian Italians, Swiss Italian, Italians of Crimea, Corsican people, Italian Maltese, and Italian irredentism in Malta\nIn both the Slovenian and Croatian portions of Istria, in Dalmatia as well as in the city of Rijeka, Italian refers to autochthonous speakers of Italian and various Italo-Dalmatian languages, natives in the region since before the inception of the Venetian Republic. In the aftermath of the Istrian exodus following the Second World War, most Italian-speakers are today predominantly located in the west and south of Istria, and number about 30,000.[161] The number of inhabitants with Italian ancestry is likely much greater but undeterminable. In the first Austrian census carried out in 1870 the number of Italian Dalmatians varied between 40,000 and 50,000 amongst the about 250,000 inhabitants of Dalmatia, or 20% of the total Dalmatian population.[162]\nIn the French County of Nice, autochthonous speakers of regional languages of Italy (Ligurian and Piedmontese), are natives in the region since before annexation to France in 1860. The number of inhabitants with Italian ancestry is generally indeterminable, and the use of French language is now ubiquitous. In addition, Corsica was a part of the Republic of Genoa until 1768 and most of the islanders still have a certain level of proficiency of Corsican, a language of the Italo-Dalmatian family closely related to Tuscan. The Italian language ceased to have official status in Corsica in 1859[163] when it was supplanted by French and a process of de-Italianization was started by the French government in Corsica (and in 1861 the Nizzardo area).\nA similar process happened in Malta, where the Maltese Italians have practically disappeared in the last two centuries after Britain took control of the island during Napoleon times. However, the Italian language is today spoken and understood by 66% of the population.[164]\nSwiss Italian is spoken as natively by about 350,000 people in the canton of Ticino and in the southern part of Graub\u00fcnden (Canton Grigioni). Swiss-Italian also refers to the Italian speaking population in this region (southern Switzerland) close to the border with Italy. Swiss Italian dialects are spoken in emigrant communities around the world, including in Australia.\nList of Italians\nList of Sardinians\nList of Sicilians\n^ a b Indicatori demografici Istat (Italian)\n^ https://www.ilsole24ore.com/art/notizie/2018-05-29/il-bacino-turismo-ritorno-60-e--80-milioni-discendenti-italiani-155705.shtml?uuid=AEQaGkwE&refresh_ce=1\n^ \"Italian Republic\".

Mostly because the anxiety we feel in the dream is so vivid, that it makes it easier for us to remember them. Often, the reason for these dreams comes not from the fear of actually being chased, but rather what we\u2019re running from. Being chased frequently means you're feeling threatened by something in your waking life. Chase dreams help us to understand that we may not be addressing something in our waking lives that requires our attention.\nSources: Huffington Post, List25",

But what about \u201cHope?\u201d That\u2019s our Advent theme for this week. And it is an important word! Even Faith is defined in terms of Hope.\u201d \u201cFaith is The assurance of things hoped for\u2026\u201d (Hebrews 11:1)\nHope is part of Advent, because Hope is what we have because Jesus came into the world. Jesus gave Hope to the world. As I said last week, God didn\u2019t make everything better in the world and then send Jesus. In fact, he didn\u2019t fix everything when Jesus was here! Remember again the last words he said to his disciples in the Upper Room. \u201cIn the world you have tribulation. But be of good cheer, for I have overcome the world!\u201d\nThat is hope. Jesus came to a troubled world. He came to a world with tribulation. But it was his coming that gave hope! If you have only the tribulation, and you see no end to it, you have no hope, you see? The ancient symbol the church used for Hope is the anchor! Hope is the light at the end of the tunnel that gives us something to go on, and not walk blindly in the dark. And, when we have no hope, when we don\u2019t see that light, we despair.\nJesus brought hope to a troubled world. He gave that light at the end of the tunnel. If you remember the two travelers on the road to Emmaus, they were explaining things to Jesus \u2013 when they didn\u2019t yet recognize him. They said \u201cWe had hoped he was the one to redeem Israel.\u201d That hope was now gone. They were in a state of despair! And of course Jesus explained it all to them, and they saw that light again! They had hope!\nJesus is the Hope for the world! Sometimes people think there is no \u201chope for the world.\u201d The world is too far gone. The darkness is complete. Can you imagine the various times in history when they might have thought that? The 20th century saw some of the worst times in history! Two World Wars, and scads of \u201clesser\u201d ones. And don\u2019t forget the \u201cCold War!\u201d\nBut there were other times! In the 1300\u2019s, the bubonic plague ravaged Europe. And then it happened two more times. It is said that many lost faith in God and in the Church in those dark days. Whole towns were devastated. In our world we have terrorism, and violence. Some would ask today, \u201cIs there any \u201cHope for the World?\u201d\nDid you see the movie, \u201cThe Shawshank Redemption?\u201d Do you remember how Andy talked of Hope, and how Red said, \u201cHope is a dangerous thing!\u201d Yet at the end, the message was \u201cRemember, Red, hope is a good thing. Maybe the best of things. And no good thing ever dies!\u201d\nPaul said \u201cFaith, Hope, and Love remain.\u201d And yes, Love is\u201d the greatest of these.\u201d But the others are still very important. And one is hope. It Hope is that feeling that our faith is not in vain!\nDid you ever feel like, yes, you believe. You have faith, but still you\u2019re not sure. You don\u2019t know that it\u2019s \u201cworking\u201d all that well. It\u2019s not meeting your needs. Maybe you feel like it might not ever work. Maybe that light at the end of the tunnel is very dim. At such times, hope is not there.\nI have to tell you that I have had times in my own life where I had lost hope, or where I saw myself losing hope! And let me tell you, that\u2019s worse than the hardships you might be going through! Without hope it seems like there is no end. It seems like there is no light at the end of the tunnel. It seems like the darkness is complete.\nThat\u2019s why I love the words of John here. He uses those images of darkness and light.He tells us that the true light came into the world. \u201cIn him was life, and the life was the light of mankind. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has never conquered it.\nJesus is the Hope for the world.\nEternal God, we thank you that you sent Jesus to be the light in our darkened world. Help us to know the hope he brings, no matter what the circumstances of our lives. We thank you and we praise you in Jesus\u2019 name, Amen.\n\u2039 Peace on Earth \u2013 December 10, 2017, The Second Sunday of Advent\nChristmas Even Morning, 2017, a sermon by Harold Pugh \u203a",

        "raw_content": "Posted by Greg and Erin Sutherland at 8:59 PM No comments:\nWhere we are living now\nLooking back on the posts I've made, I completely forgot to mention where Greg and I are living now!\nWe've been living in Provo, UT since June 2012 because Greg got accepted to BYU's Physics Masters program. He's been doing really well :) We currently have a 2 bedroom apartment in BYU's married student housing, Wymount Terrace. When we first moved here, it was kind of weird. I didn't think we'd end up back in Provo to live for a while! But, it's really nice to move somewhere and already know how to get around, like what grocery store to go to, what things there are to do, and stuff like that.\nNot only were we so excited that Greg got accepted to grad school but that we were moving closer to my younger sister Meaghan, who's working on her bachelors at BYU. It's been absolutely fabulous living near her and being able to hang out often! She lives just down the street, which makes it super easy to get together.\nGreg now has about a year left to go and during the next year he'll be taking additional teaching classes to go towards a teaching credential (Greg wants to teach physics at high school or community college level). I know he'll be a great teacher and he's working really hard to get there.\nAs for me, I currently have two part-time jobs. One is working for Nu Skin as a Product Assembler in their distribution center and the other is bookkeeping/accounting for my dad's two companies. The latter I do from home, which is super nice since we have a baby on the way and I can continue to do that after the baby's born.\nThere! Now I've given a little general update about where we're living ;)\n13 more weeks!\nSo in case you don't know, Greg and I are expecting our first and I'm due August 21! I'm currently 27 weeks along (only 13 more to go! yikes!).\nWe found out a week before Christmas. We couldn't wait to tell our families especially since a holiday was coming up, and we were going to spend Christmas with Greg's family. This is their first grandchild! So we told everyone when I was only 6 weeks along! Super early I know...we were just so excited and couldn't hold it in!\nSo far, pregnancy for me hasn't been that bad. During my first trimester, I had some nausea but never actually vomited because of it and it didn't last all that long. I think I'm one of those super lucky women because I've heard stories of how other women had nausea for almost half their pregnancy or longer!\nMy second trimester has been great! I've got to feel our little guy move (yes, it's a boy!) and Greg has been able to feel him move also! Our little boy is funny especially when it comes to letting his daddy feel him move. Almost every time I tell Greg \"Hey wanna feel him move?\" Greg would excitedly put his hand on my belly and the baby would stop moving! Silly little guy. I haven't taken any belly shots yet because I don't think I look pregnant! I know and Greg knows I'm showing but I think I look like I just gained a bunch of weight and that's it :( I'll take one today, post it, and see what you think.\nHere's a picture of our boy at 21 weeks. He's a cutie :)\nWe are so excited for our son to come, but at the same time it's kind of scary! Being responsible for something so precious and completely dependent makes me nervous even though I've babysat plenty of babies and toddlers. I guess the fact that this one is actually mine to take care of makes me feel that way. But I know Greg and I won't be horrible parents and that we'll have plenty of support from our families and friends to help us out when we need it!\nWe can't wait to see who he looks like, if he will have red hair or not, what color his eyes are, what kind of personality he'll have, and everything else that comes with such a bundle of joy!\nWhat's his name you ask? Right now, it's Brandon James. (Flows pretty well don't ya think?)\nBaby Brandon, we love you and are looking forward to getting to know you!\nHis little foot!\nWhat I Am Grateful For...\nSo you may have noticed how rare a post is made for this blog...yes I'm very bad at it, but my New Year's Resolution is to be better at keeping this blog up to date so hopefully it will stick!\nA lot has been on my mind recently. I've been thinking about decisions I made and second guessing that they were the right ones for me to make. After much reflection I have come to this list of things I am grateful for that help dispel any doubts I have had:\n1) I am grateful that I know I am a daughter of a loving, generous, caring Heavenly Father. I came to this knowledge when I was 11 years old and it has never, ever left me. This knowledge helps me get through any challenges I face in my life. I know it will continue to do so.\n2) I am grateful for miracles. Miracles happen everyday and in different sizes. Greg and I have been blessed by God with miracles that may seem like nothing to someone else but mean the world to us. Through our faith we have been able to see the miracles of God performed in our lives. Through these miracles we know that Heavenly Father is always watching over us and cares about us.\n3) I am grateful I married Greg. I can't imagine myself being with any other man. Greg is kind, considerate, funny, caring, worthy of the Priesthood, spiritual, faithful, great with kids, smart, willing to follow the Lord's will, thoughtful, respectful, and my best friend! I feel so blessed everyday that I get to wake up and see him next to me. It is hard to describe in words the love I have for him.\n4) I am grateful for the opportunity to become a mother. This is the role I've been dreaming about and have always desired! I'm super excited that in August my dream will come true! I'm even more excited that Greg will be a father. I know he'll be a great dad and I can't wait until I get to see him play with our son/daughter.\n5) I am grateful for my parents and my siblings. I have felt their love for me ever since I was little. They teach me every time I'm with them and I love them so much! I hope they each know that I love them!\n6) I am grateful I spent time living with my in-laws. When Greg and I got married we moved into his parents' house until one of us got a job. I'm grateful that I got to know them better and become more comfortable around them. They now truly feel like family to me and I don't think I would've gotten to that point yet if we didn't live with them.\n7) I am grateful we lived in Wisconsin for the time we did. We met so many wonderful people in Madison, especially in our ward. We made some great friends who provided advice and love to us since we were both so very far away from our own families. During this time I served as a Young Women adviser in the our ward. I loved that calling! I was able to share a bit of my testimony with the 12-13 year olds every Sunday and Wednesday. By spending time with them I was able to see how much I've matured since I was in Young Women's. I miss those girls. Greg and I learned so much from our time in Wisconsin and we wouldn't trade that much needed experience for anything else.\n8) I am grateful for the jobs I had and have. I spent some time babysitting part-time, processing claims at a fitness equipment manufacturer, and now I'm working as a product assembler. Each job taught me some lessons that I don't think I would have gotten anywhere else. I learned more business smarts, how to be more professional, to own my mistakes as soon as they happen, how to treat others in general, and that every job no matter how menial is essential to the business it's in.\nAs I was thinking of the above things I'm grateful for, I realized that if my various decisions had been different I probably wouldn't have had the above experiences at the time of my life that I needed them. I know the Lord has a plan for me and Greg. I've tried to follow His plan for me and yes some things have been hard but that's what life is for! Without the hard things, we wouldn't learn how to become more like our Heavenly Father.\nOne last thing I'm grateful for is that I can say I'm HAPPY! I'm happy because I married the love of my life in the temple and that I have a testimony of the Gospel. I know that if Greg and I strive to continue living the Gospel that we will always be happy and have true joy! I hope each of you will be able to have some happiness today and thank you for reading!\nPosted by Greg and Erin Sutherland at 4:43 PM 2 comments:\nCross-stitching project done!\nI finally finished a cross-stitching project I started years ago! I got this pattern at the Reagan Library. But now I don't know what to do with it! Should I frame it, make it into a pillow, or what??? I have to think about it some more.\nOur 1st Anniversary!\nSo, I'm not the greatest blogger in the world. But that's okay! Haha.Greg and I recently had our 1st Wedding Anniversary!!! We couldn't believe it has been a year already! We both felt (and feel) very grateful that we have each other and that we'll be able to spend the rest of eternity together. Here's a run down of what we did:\n1) I got up before Greg to surprise him with French Toast for breakfast!\n2) Greg surprised me by telling me he took the day off and made all sorts of plans for that day!\n3) We went to the park and had a picnic and played card games. Greg got all the food the day before and made sure I didn't see it until the next day. He likes to surprise me and I like surprises :) Good combo.\nwe were also going to fly kites but it was rainy :(\n4) We went to the zoo! Because it was rainy, a lot of the animals weren't out like all the big cats, rhinos, etc. But we did get to see red pandas, giraffes, otters, seals, bears, wallabies, meerkats, and more including huge cockroaches (yuck!). I took lots of pictures but decided to upload just a couple.\n5) Then we went to see the movie \"Arthur\". Greg and I liked it :)\n6) We had made reservations at a restaurant called Liliana's. They serve Cajun cuisine and it was really good! We even got free dessert because it was our anniversary :)\n7) We went home and got out our cake top! Since we were so full from dinner we split a small piece of cake.\nAll in all, it was a fantastic day! I feel so blessed to have Greg in my life and I love him so much!\nNot much. But I realize now that I haven't posted pictures of our apartment with stuff in it! So here you go :)\nLet's see...I've been called to be a Young Women's Music Adviser in our ward. Greg doesn't have a calling yet but I bet he'll get one soon! Next week Tuesday I'm going to a hiring seminar for the local Apple Store! Apparently, Apple has quite a few interview processes and I hope I get through them all and get a job there! I think it would be fun to work at the Apple Store. Also, ever since we got Guitar Hero, I've been listening to (or rather playing in the game) the song \"Seven Nation Army\" by the White Stripes. It has such a great beat! I don't think I'll get tired it! Anyway, that's about all I can think of that's new with us. Have a great day everyone!\nPosted by Greg and Erin Sutherland at 9:25 AM No comments:",

        "raw_content": "Brook West May 28, 2014 Relationships\nShacking up. Cohabitation. Whatever you want to call it, we\u2019re talking about moving in with your significant other. For some, it\u2019s the next logical step in your relationship, and for others, it can reap controversy.\nLiving together means there is nowhere to hide. You\u2019ll be sharing all of your personal space with another person. Those habits you think are normal, they could find annoying, and vice versa. Maybe you leave dirty towels on the floor only to learn that it\u2019s their biggest pet peeve. Maybe your significant other cooked you a really nice dinner, promised to clean up, and then let the dishes \u2018soak\u2019 for five days. Maybe they lose track of bills, and don\u2019t always pay on time. Maybe you want to have your friends over every weekend, and they don\u2019t feel comfortable.\nAre you ready to spend every day and night together? Ready to share the bills? Do you think you know everything there is to know about your boyfriend or girlfriend? Until you move in together, think again. Here are some things you\u2019ll want to evaluate before deciding if you\u2019re ready to live together:\nHow Much Time Do You Spend Together?\nDo you already spend most of your free time together? Do you spend the night at each others\u2019 places most nights of the week? If so, chances are you\u2019re already clued in to some of your partner\u2019s annoying habits, and they are aware of yours. You already know they don\u2019t do their laundry regularly and they know you leave empty milk cartons in the refrigerator, and you can both handle it. Since you know each others\u2019 quirks, you will most likely have a smoother transition into living together.\nHow do you feel about spending nights apart? If you genuinely miss each other and look forward to being together again, it\u2019s a good sign you\u2019re ready to live together. But if you go home, happy to sleep alone and have space to yourself, you might not be ready for the move-in step.\nYou Go On Vacation and Don\u2019t Hate Each Other\nPrior to moving in, one of the best ways to test your relationship is to go on a long vacation, a road trip, or a camping trip together. Any of these circumstances gives you opportunities to test your relationship in several ways. In these situations, you\u2019ll have to make decisions about spending, responsibilities, where to go, and what to do. How do you handle discussing money? How do you, and your partner, handle getting lost? How do you negotiate tasks? Are they as patient as you want them to be?\nA trip together is also an effective way to gauge how you feel about spending your time together, 24/7. Did you enjoy each others\u2019 company? If you did, it\u2019s a positive indicator that you are ready to live together.\nDo You Want to Live Together for Financial Reasons?\nLiving together can often reduce financial stress, but money shouldn\u2019t be the driving force behind moving-in together. If all you\u2019re thinking about is money, chances are your relationship is not in a good place. Period.\nHave You Talked About the Future?\nHave you discussed being together long-term? Do you have the same feelings about the city you live in? Do you want to have kids in the next five years? These are all questions that need to be considered so you\u2019ll know if you share the same relationship expectations with your boyfriend/girlfriend. If one of you wants to live together because it\u2019s practical, and the other views living together as the next step towards marriage, you\u2019re not on the same page and moving in isn\u2019t the answer.\nCan You Compromise?\nBeing able to compromise is one of the best tools you can have in your relationship toolbox. Have you been able to discuss if you\u2019ll move into their place, if they\u2019ll move into yours, or if you\u2019ll find a new place together? Can you discuss furniture \u2013 what stays and what goes? Do you have pets to consider? Are you able to address and resolve problems in a healthy way with both opinions valued? If so, you\u2019ll probably be able to navigate conflict after you move in together.\nYou\u2019ve Been Dating Six Months (or more!)\nThe beginning of a relationship is often distinguished by euphoria. You put your new boyfriend or girlfriend on a pedestal, knowing everything they do, say, and feel is perfectly charming, and that they can do no wrong. Everything they do is \u201ccute\u201d and you can overlook any imperfection.\nEventually reality sets in.\nGive yourself at least six months before deciding to live together. After six months, you should have a better understanding of your boyfriend/girlfriend\u2019s personality, needs, wants, and ability to mesh with yours.\nMoving in with your boyfriend or girlfriend can strengthen your relationship, or end it. Before packing any boxes, evaluate your relationship, reasons why you want to live together, your ability to compromise, and whether or not you genuinely like spending all of your time together.\nAre You Ready To Move In Together?

This is the first and only authorized English version of Dr. Lee\u2019s autobiography. The original Chinese version of the sold 1.2 million copies in China in 2009 as a best seller of the year over there. Evidently, this autobiography is full of spellbinding stories.\nA natural-born pioneer, Dr. Lee has explored uncharted territories and developed new fields in the high-tech world. In addition, his Chinese American background has enabled him to effectively bridge corporate America with the China market. He recounts all his career experiences with Apple, Microsoft, and Google as well as his own technological achievements in this amazing autobiography.\nDr. Lee was once the focus of a media sensation in 2005 when Microsoft and Google fought over him in court. He shocked the media again in 2009 by resigning from the position of Google China\u2019s president. There have been many speculations about the two incidents, behind which some insider stories are exclusively told in this book.\nThe autobiography depicts not only Dr. Lee but also several prominent high-tech leaders he has worked with in the past two decades. It gets up close and personal with Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, Steve Ballmer, Eric Schmidt, Larry Page and Sergey Brin.

        "raw_content": "When I think about Africa\u2019s Agribusiness Sector I see enormous opportunity when the non-profit/aid community and agribusiness stakeholders truly work together to improve access to markets for smallholder farmers. I see a great opportunity for growth when new local markets are created to add value to production across several value chains. These new markets are created locally when manufacturing and processing facilities of what is produced in country are commissioned.\nWe need an Agriculture 2.0 frame of mind. We need a Philanthropy 2.0 mindset. We have to be disrupters of normalcy and complacency in how things have always been done in the sector. For years aid organizations have invested millions of dollars in farm inputs but the benefactor cannot capture the true value of the impact if there is no means of continuity beyond aid. Investors in the sector must also be willing to invest in intelligence so they can build impactful and profitable agriculture businesses.\nFranchise Africa is currently building investment plans across 3 value chains, karite (shea) nut, ginger and sesame. The supply chain for the investment is linked to Propcom Mai-Karfi a program funded by DFID in Nigeria. The program was funded 25M over the past 5 years to aid smallholder farmers and women collector groups with access to local markets with the aim to increase revenues. The project is scheduled to end. Franchise Africa\u2019s investment strategy is to add continuity to the Propcom\u2019s laudable endeavors. By fortifying the link between aid organizations and the agribusiness sector the sector and the lives of smallholder farmers will be transformed. Market intelligence, research and studying the value chains from investment perspectives must be valued in order to attract new investors into the sector.\nWhat are possibilities of having a good relationship between businesses in Africa and businesses in the United States (with focus on Agribusiness)?\nFranchise Africa is a consulting agency with the mission to grow bilateral trade between the U.S. and Africa. For many years I have consulted with business that seek to export the products they produce in U.S. markets. We have designed our services to source buyers for clients in Africa. The hurdles in the agriculture space for U.S. market entry are quality, consistency and traceability.\nOur organization studies U.S. markets and the trends of buyers in the U.S. ingredient market worth over USD27.73 Billion. Much of what Africa produces are ingredients in consumer packaged goods. Our target buyers are manufactures, contract manufacturers and co-packers that produce finished goods for the U.S. consumer markets worth over USD18 Trillion. These buyers have purchasing requirements that must be met in addition to Federal policies governing food quality. Quality controls need to be put in place as product recalls can cause huge profit losses for companies in the United States and reduce the reputation of exports from Africa making it difficult for U.S. buyers to trust suppliers from Africa. Part of our job is to improve the perception of food exports from Africa. Africa cannot just merely try to improve quality it must improve quality if export growth in U.S. markets is going to be achieved. Quality can be controlled through the development of the agriculture manufacturing and processing industry in African countries.\nValue additions must be made at the local level to compete with regional and global producers. Most of what Africa produces currently is the raw material, which is exported to European and Asian markets, where the value is added through production and then re-exported to the United States buyers. This loss drives investors away from the sector. In addition to quality, exports from African countries need a more organized warehousing and fulfillment system for marketing and distribution in the target markets to compete with global powerhouses such as India, China, Mexico and Brazil. Africa is not accessing a large segment of the U.S. market as most small to medium size manufacturers do not want to buy 20 metric tons of a given product, to be shipped in a 20ft container that will take 45 days to receive. But if the inventory is available in the target market many small to medium size manufacturers may purchase more than 20 metric tons over a protracted period of time when they can purchase in smaller quantities more consistently. African investors and agribusiness stakeholders must value market intelligence such as this in order to succeed in U.S. and global markets at large.\nWhat motivated you to start Franchise Africa?\nMy first approach to doing business in Africa has always been to work from the ground up. I built my first business in Liberia over 10 years ago. As a young entrepreneur I wanted to make an innovative impact. So the mission in all of my business ventures in Africa has always been to build businesses, create jobs and eradicate poverty through trade. When I arrived in post war Liberia in 2006 many of the children were not in school. My very first venture was paying the school fees of over 200 hundred children so they could attend school. I felt great. Then after a few months, I asked myself are you going to do this for the next 12 years until each one of those students graduate from high school? There was no continuity to my plan. So I looked at the issue, the same way I look at the issue with in the agribusiness sector in Africa, what is the heart of the problem, what is the solution? The solution was to create a business that was needed in the market and create jobs for the parents to generate the income needed to improve the quality of life and to take care of the educational responsibilities of their own children. Over a 9-year period I built one of the largest security firms in Liberia that aided investors coming into the country and international non-profit organizations. By 2014, I had over 500 security guards employed protecting international agencies such as United Nations Development Program, Total, Firestone and many local business and non-profits. Many of the first employees were the parents of the children whom I had aided to go to school the previous year. The average number of dependents for each Liberian household at the time was 6. From my investment to create a business that created jobs impacted over 3000 lives for over 10 years. This very experience is my motivation for Franchise Africa. Franchise Africa is a powerhouse of innovative solutions for Africa through business development and investment intelligence across many different sectors in Africa to ensure that jobs are created and poverty is eradicated through trade. I believe that the agriculture sector across Africa needs a \u201cFor Profit\u201d focus from all key stakeholders in the sector including non-profit organizations aiding smallholder farmers.\nWhere do you foresee Africa's Agribusiness Sector in years to come\nThe agribusiness sector will grow when intelligent agri-investment decisions are made from the development of bankable agribusiness investment plans. Bankable projects will unlock the hundreds of millions of dollars in funding that is available for the development of the agriculture sector in Africa. When these funds are unlocked business are created, jobs are created, links in the value chains are fortified, farmers are impacted, allied service markets are developed and over all the macro economy grows. When we make agriculture investment attractive and build a culture around intelligence gathering the sector will grow. The sector will move into this direction as more skilled and educated investors, both in Africa and in the Diaspora, begin to diversify into agriculture investment on the continent.\nHow do you think you can help in impacting Africa's Agribusiness Sector through Franchise Africa?\nFranchise Africa brings a target market focus to the agribusiness sector. We gather the market intelligence from the target markets for export then we build bankable agribusiness projects in Africa to meet the target market demand. We focus on two main areas when we look at agriculture investment, food security and export growth. Our investment opportunities aim to measure impact as well as profitability. Our investment ventures seek to cross over to sectors where agriculture inputs may be overlooked such as in the power sectors and infrastructure sectors. We study value chains to see if there is value being lost because waste that could be considered as biomass or biofuel is not being valued locally. We also look at the product type and the industries processed agriculture products can enter such as pharmaceutical grade and industrial grade products. Our goal through building intelligent investment opportunities is to capture the complete value of the commodity in the world market, whether it is extracting Inulin from organically certified cassava for nutraceutical production or the use of shea nut cake for the production of Lipase, which makes up 10% of the enzyme market worth over USD 8 Billion. Franchise Africa\u2019s goal is to make sure Africa captures all of the value in the agriculture it produces in U.S. and other global markets.",

        "raw_content": "DVD Review: Game of Thrones Season 3\nI\u2019ve read all five books in the A Song Of Fire And Ice series by George R. R. Martin. I fell in love with the series almost instantly, even though I had fastidiously avoided the fantasy genre for most of my life. I loved how Martin could bring to life with such vivid detail the fantasy world of Westeros, whilst keeping it very readable. What I didn\u2019t like however was how the first book finished. As the series continued over the following four books I soon learned that Martin had an annoying habit of killing of my favourite characters, and by the end on the final book (so far) I had sworn off reading the final two books of the series (if they ever get written).\nBut even though I detested Martin by the time the TV series came along, I was intrigued enough to watch the first season. It was ok, but I felt HBO had crammed too much into ten episodes. Then came the second season and I tried to watch it, but it just felt flat to me.\nBut then came season three and the infamous Red Wedding. Having read the books, it was funny reading all the tweets by American\u2019s who had obviously never read to the books, and were watching the episode \u2018live\u2019 on TV. This was a season I would endure if only to see how HBO handled one of the most shocking turn of events in all of Westeros.\nBut I didn\u2019t have to endure anything, as season three captured me like the first chapter of Martin\u2019s paperback version of A Game Of Thrones did. I was once again hooked into the series, and though I knew pretty much everything that was going to happen (even though many of the details are changed), it was fun watching it all unfold, and having the anticipation of episode nine hanging over me was thrilling in itself.\nAdd to this the production quality, which felt as if it had been ratcheted up a fair few notches, with both stunning visuals and a strong attention to sound quality and levels, and you have HBO back at their best.\nBut HBO did a tricky thing with season three, rather than following a one book per season formula that they did with the first two seasons, they left a large segment of book three, presumably for season four. A wise thing to do, considering what other shocks appear in those final 100 or so pages. This of course means that some of the more delicious moments I was looking forward to seeing, will now have to wait till season four is released.\nI can say, that after being immersed into the world of Westeros over ten epic episodes, and I\u2019m anticipating a great season four, and may even consent to calling myself a fan of the TV show.\nRating: R18 Strong violence, language, sex scenes and nudity.\nSanctuary Season 3\nPrevious story Afflicted Official Trailer",

Berkeley Pit water, 13 million gallons per day, is pumped from the deeper, copper-rich part of the lake to nearby scrap iron holding ponds,.\nPre:hammer crusher dimension and capacity\nNext:cement production line importers\n\u00bb4 25 sh cone crusher for sale\n\u00bbcalifornian rock crusher machine\n\u00bbsilica quartz grinding mills in israel\n\u00bbused hydraulic cone crusher in italy\n\u00bbmanganese open pit mining\n\u00bbmica crushing production plant",

        "title": "Winning: Food freedom bills are spreading across the U.S.",
        "raw_content": "Consumers are increasingly realizing the benefits of natural foods, and it appears their voices are finally being heard as new legislation has been proposed in California and Montana that will make it easier for local small food entrepreneurs.\nA new law in Montana would allow homemade food to be sold and consumed and encourage the expansion of agricultural sales by the state\u2019s farms and ranches. The bill, which is known as the Local Food Choice Act, would give people who make and sell these foods directly to the public an exemption from getting the mandatory permits, licensing labels, and inspections. Those who sell directly to grocers and restaurants, however, would not be exempt, nor would those selling food across state lines.\nIncredibly, it has been illegal until now for people to sell homemade food to their neighbors. The bill, which was introduced by Republican State Rep. Greg Hertz, was inspired by a similar one in Wyoming known as the Food Freedom Act. This groundbreaking law was passed two years ago, loosening restrictions on direct-to-consumer sales of food in the state in legislation that was the first of its kind in the country. Colorado soon followed suit, and now it appears that Montana is getting on board. Rep. Hertz said that eating what people choose \u201cshould never be a crime.\u201d\nMeanwhile, a separate bill in California was introduced this week that would allow home cooks to sell their prepared foods directly to consumers. Sanitation, permitting and training requirements would still apply under the bill, which is known as the Homemade Food Operations Act, but it would make the process of selling food to others much easier.\nCalifornia is known for having very stringent cottage food laws. In fact, a Stockton woman is now facing a year in jail after selling a homemade meal to an undercover investigator. The single mother of six was part of a Facebook group where Stockton residents exchanged recipes and traded homemade goods. After agreeing to sell some homemade ceviche to an undercover investigator from San Joaquin County, she found herself charged with a pair of misdemeanors. After refusing a plea bargain that would give her 80 hours of community service, three years of probation and a fine of $235, she is now facing a trial. If she is convicted, she could get a year in jail. It\u2019s hard to believe that law enforcement would spend its time trapping home cooks when there are rapists and murderers wandering free, but apparently taking business away from the Big Food manufacturers is quite a threat.\nConsumers win\nThe new laws represent a huge win for consumers as more and more people eschew the chemical-laden junk offered by the major food manufacturers. Home cooks generally don\u2019t have the budget that big corporations have and are therefore often deterred by complicated licensing laws and sanitary regulations, leaving consumers who don\u2019t have the time or inclination to cook for themselves or grow their own food little choice but to settle for the mass-produced food on their grocery store shelves.\nHowever, not everyone is thrilled by the legislation. Health officials in the state of Montana have expressed concern that the new bill could spur a rise in foodborne illnesses. The state representative who sponsored the Wyoming Food Freedom Act, Tyler Lindholm, said: \u201cEvery state that looks at setting their local food economy free inevitably finds food police lining up with statistics on how freedom of choice is a danger.\u201d He lamented the fact that such bureaucrats and food industry associations see the public as too ignorant to be trusted to make decisions about how to feed their families. Moreover, he pointed out that Wyoming has not seen an increase in foodborne illness since the law was passed.\nIt may be a small victory for food freedom, but it could well set a precedent that inspires other states to let consumers decide for themselves what they want to eat.\nLeg.MT.gov [pdf]\nTagged Under: food choice, food freedom, homemade food",

        "raw_content": "[Argamae] \"Limbo\" - Thoughts About The End\nAutor Thema: [Argamae] \"Limbo\" - Thoughts About The End (Gelesen 1494 mal)\n\"Limbo\" - Thoughts About The End\nEver since LIMBO from Playdead Studios hit the PC (Steam) and consoles (Xbox360 and PS3) in 2010 there has been much talk about the awesomeness of the game. All of which is more than justified in my opinion. If you have not had the chance to play it then do so. It is well worth your time and money. Myself, I played it on the Xbox360 and for me this is probably one of my personal favourite video games of this decade.\nThe story--well, gameplay-wise at least--is rather simple. Your character, a small boy, wakes up in a dreary black and grey world. You have simple movement controls (left and right) as well as a jump and an interact button. That's it. No fancy special moves or upgradable abilites. No speech or even text at all. Just the barest of basics. But from it the developers craft an immersive game that is an excercise in reduction and sophistication at the same time. And it delivers atmosphere and a feeling of foreboding in spades. You set out to discover something, to get onward to an unknown destination, overcoming obstacles by jumping and running and solving physics-based puzzles. But what exactly is the story of Limbo? Given the alleged end of the world on the 21st of December I thought it might be a good idea to talk about the subject matter.\nEver since I completed the game I have been wondering about it. And I am not alone, oh no, sir! It seems that while certain views about the game are shared by a majority of gamers everyone also has his or her very own explanation about what happened (or happens) to the main character. From the official description we only glean that he is looking for his lost sister. That's about it. Attention: from now on there will be spoilers galore. If you haven't played the game yet but are planning to do so, do not read on. It might spoil a lot for you. Thanks!\nTake a look at the teaser to get a vague feeling for the game.\n*** SPOILERS AHEAD***\nWhat most people share - given the name of the game - is that the boy is dead and finds himself lost in a place between life and death. Yes, I believe that, too. By the end of the game you crash through a wall of brittle material and find yourself lying on the ground - just like when you start the game. If you continue to the right you find a girl which is presumably the boy's sister. Above her hangs a broken rope ladder from a large tree and you can make out some structure in the treetop. The girl is kneeling or sitting on the ground, picking up or touching something in front of her, her back towards your character. Finally, when the boy has gotten nearer she suddenly looks up as if she has heard something. Then the game ends.\nAs for the interpretations, they really go wild. For some the whole journey represents mankind's fate from its humble beginnings (the boy starts in a wilderness) to end (where the background takes on a more and more urban look and gets increasingly threatening with traps, crushers, sawblades, automatic guns, giant cogwheels and other weird contraptions. For others it represents the increasing urbanization and pollution of nature. Or war. Or even the third world war and how mankind discovers true peace. Some have suggested that the boy is a sort of villain who lives through flashes of his life again and finally gains understanding about himself and what he did. This is somewhat supported by gamers who believe that the title screen shows two graves. Well, there are two swarms of buzzing flies over some nondescript patches of ground. Actually nothing that would ultimately hint at a grave. But nonetheless people have formed the theory that both the boy and his sister have died and that he finally meets her in the afterlife when he completes the trials of Limbo. Going even further into wild speculation is the theory that the boy's family had a car crash and his breaking through the aforementioned \"pane of material\" at the end of the game represents the crashing windshield. Jumping onto this train of thought, others claim to discern the wreckage not of a car but of a school bus in the title screen (which I am totally unable to perceive) and believe that the other kids which you encounter while playing Limbo are the ghosts of this alleged schoolbus crash.\nWhat is the most amazing part of all these speculations and theories? That a small indie game developer could produce a game that in it's reduction of visual stimulation manages to engage players into seriously wrapping their brains around their play experience in order to find meaning. Maybe this is Limbo's greatest achievement.\nWell, as for my own theory, I believe that all of what happens in the game is some sort of near death experience where the boy re-experiences parts of his life. For me, the game represents his personal journey through Limbo, fraught with all the things and obstacles he had to face in his life. Now he must face and overcome them again to be able to acertain his sister's fate. When he reaches his sister in the end she is trying to wake up her brother who is lying on the ground. If you look closely you can see that right in front of her the fuzzyness representing the grassy ground is not really that prominent thus providing for the theory that some something solid might be lying on the ground. The treehouse is not \"rotten away\" (as some have claimed) but just broken and the little swirling motes of dust in the air could represent recently broken dry wood. The boy fell from the tree house (or the rope ladder) which is represented by the final slow motion crash through some pane of material (be it glass or wood) and he finally found out the truth about it all - he died and his sister is alive. When his sister suddenly starts and looks up it is because she feels her brother's presence. That's where it fades to black.\nWhat's your take on the meaning of Limbo? If you've played the game let me know. If you haven't played it then go and get it. Even with the spoilers you have read the game will likely enchant you in a morbid but beautiful way. If you consider yourself a deep video gamer then you owe it to yourself.\nSource: \"Limbo\" - Thoughts About The End",

It was capital of Apamene, on the right bank of the Orontes River, and the site can be found about 55 km to the northwest of Hama, Syria, overlooking the Ghab valley.\nPreviously known as Pharmake, it was fortified and enlarged by Seleucus I Nicator in 300 BC, who so named it after his Bactrian wife, Apama.\nIn pursuance of his policy of Hellenizing Syria, it bore the Macedonian name of Pella.\nLocated at a strategic crossroads for Eastern commerce, the city flourished to the extent that its population eventually numbered half a million. It was one of the four cities of the Syrian tetrapolis.\n40 kilometers away from Afamia, we had to drive up and pass the Slunfa mountain to reach our destination to Latikia, we were taken by a surprise at how the temperature dropped at the top of this mountain, in just 30 minutes it went from 36 C to 16 C.

Mahmood, who runs the place, was very helpful.\nIt was a bright sunny morning in Palmyra as we headed out to explore the ancient city and its treasures.\nOur first stop was to see the Palmyra ruins, which cover about six square kilometres. We could feel ourselves being transported back in time to as we fixed our eyes on the Grand Colonnade, which was built by the Romans in the second century.\nIt's a magnificent looking street, defined by its grand granite and limestone columns. Close to the street you can see Queen Zenobia's Baths.\nThe tour led us on to the Temple Bel, which as its name suggests, was built for worshipping the god of Bel - you could still see the place where they use to sacrifice animals. In the 10th and 11th centuries the temple became a fortress for the crusaders. At different times it was also used as a church and then later as a mosque in the 12th century. (Click here for a 360\u00ba virtual tour of the temple).\nNear the temple is a Roman style theatre which was used for plays and animal wrestling \u2013 it is still a remarkable place and if you close your eyes tight enough, you can imagine the cheers and roars from the crowd.\nDuring our walk along the Colonnade we ran into our camel herder friends from the night before. They were accompanied by boys and men selling postcards, Arabic headscarves and tablecloths. We all bought something to remind us of our time in the historic place.\nOur visit then continued to the Tombs of Elabel, which was built in 103 AD by its founder Elabel. It contains four floors and a basement which at full capacity could store about 300 bodies. Each tomb was sealed with a limestone slab and decorated with a figurehead of the dead person. Unfortunately, you can't see any of the bones or items from the tombs because they were either stolen or are now on show at the Palmyra National Museum.\nAt the museum, our next stop, you can see some of the statues, coins, jewellery and other precious items that had been found among the ruins of Palmyra. Some of them are very well preserved and help to complete the story of Queen Zenobia, the Romans and the nobles of this ancient city.\nLater in the evening we headed to Citadel, a castle built by Fakhruddin in 1625. From the castle you can see amazing views of the ruins and if you are lucky, like we were, you might catch golden rays of light descend on the city as the sun sets for the day.\nAfter dinner in the hotel we took chai at the local internet coffee shop while we spoke with the owners about our tour and the purpose of our trip.",

        "raw_content": "Enhancer Spanish Fly: How Serious Are The Risks?\nSpanish Fly: How Serious Are The Risks?\nWhen you are considering buying a product that you plan to consume, it\u2019s always a good idea to get as much information as possible. And when it comes to dietary supplements, especially Spanish Fly products (or \u201cLibido Enhancers\u201d as they are officially called), you must be extremely careful.\nOn the market are several products with NO active ingredients and therefore with NO effects after use. What\u2019s worse, there are a few products out there that may even be dangerous to your health.\nThat\u2019s Why I Created This Website.\nA simple place where regular folks can share both positive and negative, reviews of various Spanish Fly products.\nWhy Do People Think ALL SPANISH FLY Products Are Dangerous?\nFirst of all, we need to explain what \u201cSpanish Fly\u201d means. In the past, Spanish Fly were drops; they were known in Ancient Roman times and were a strong aphrodisiac made from blister beetles and contained cantharidin. However, they had some seriously dangerous side effects, so they could not be bought anymore. They became illegal and nobody sold them for decades.\nNowadays \u201cSpanish Fly\u201d is a term. It is a \u201ctype of a product\u201c. It is a synonym for aphrodisiac. And on the market there is a huge amount of \u201cSpanish Flys\u201d, such as Spanish Gold Fly, Germany Sex Drops, Spanish Fly Love, etc..\nThey are all LEGAL to buy, as they do not use the illegal cantharidin, and they are in most cases are 100% safe to use. They just use the name \u201cSpanish Fly\u201d as the type of product \u2013 an aphrodisiac.\nAs such, you don\u2019t need to be worried about buying Spanish Fly anymore. You can NOT buy the original, bad and dangerous Spanish Fly even if you want to.\nSpanish Fly = Danger?\nAphrodisiacs, named after the Greek goddess of love Aphrodite, have one single purpose \u2013 to increase the amount of sexual desire you\u2019re feeling at that point in time, and ideally for several hours afterwards. The use of these \u201clove potions\u201d dates back thousands of years to when humans first started tinkering with medicine, and when they first realized what a potent weapon sex and sexual energy can be. Of all the aphrodisiacs that have come into, and vanished out of existence over the centuries, Spanish Fly features as the single most famous, and ultimately the most dangerous, product designed to allegedly increase female arousal and sexual desire.\nSpanish Fly itself is not actually made from flies (thankfully I hear you say!), but is instead made from a type of green beetle called the Lytta vesicatoria. Basically the dried remains of these beetles are ground into a fine powder, which is then mixed with a number of other ingredients and then placed in a water or alcohol base. So this allegedly potent aphrodisiac is made from dead insects \u2013 there\u2019s no sexual magic or alchemy involved.\nThere are some historical records which say that Spanish Fly was originally used as a form of anesthetic given to men on their wedding night. At that time it was an ointment which was applied to the male genitals to numb them long enough to allow the man to perform sexually for longer, impressing his new wife in the process. It was never, ever designed to be taken internally though, and this is where the health issues really start. Now this goes against everything you see when in adverts for this female libido enhancer, because it\u2019s always supplied as either drops, or sometimes pills, to be taken orally.\nThere\u2019s a serious problem here because the active ingredient in this aphrodisiac is something called cantharadin, which is actually a severe irritant and blistering agent. In fact they\u2019re so potent that simply placing a substance containing cantharadin on your skin can cause it to blister almost immediately, so it\u2019s obviously not something you would ever want to drink or take orally.\nEnjoy Life \u2013 Now Risk FREE\nThe most commonly held belief around Spanish Fly is that it was originally used to encourage farm animals to mate (and it was reasonably effective in making this happen), so somebody, somewhere decided that it could be used for the same purpose for human beings. The reason why people think this aphrodisiac might actually work to enhance your sex drive is because it causes irritation in the urinary tract, which then causes blood to rush to your genitals \u2013 this rush of blood then being mistaken for sexual arousal. What\u2019s actually happening is that the toxic ingredients in Spanish Fly are poisoning your body in a number of different ways.\nThe only real reason Spanish Fly has managed to retain some kind of mystical significance as an aphrodisiac is because it\u2019s been banned from sale in most civilized countries \u2013 simply because it\u2019s so dangerous. Unfortunately some people think it\u2019s been banned because it actually works and this makes them all the more eager to try it. The fact that this product has been banned has created a kind of weird viral marketing campaign for it \u2013 which people are still falling for even today.\nSo are there any health risks associated with taking Spanish Fly?\nFolks the list is almost endless, but what we\u2019re going to do is to list the most common and most serious side effects of this aphrodisiac, as a warning to any woman considering taking this \u201csexual stimulant\u201d, even just experimentally.\nSpanish Fly has been used for centuries by back alley abortionist to terminate pregnancies, so any woman who is currently pregnant or trying to get pregnant needs to avoid this product like the plague itself. There is a very strong risk that using this product in even the smallest of doses could cause you to accidentally abort your child.\nAll Spanish Fly Products Now Risk FREE\nThere are numerous verifiable cases of Spanish Fly causing severe damage to the kidneys of people taking it. This is based on the fact that the irritant contained in this product goes to work on your urinary tract causing inflammation and infection there, which then spreads elsewhere. If you do decide to use Spanish Fly you should be prepared to visit the nearest hospital shortly afterwards.\nTaking Spanish Fly in even small doses can result in anything from delirium, confusion and borderline psychosis to actual loss of consciousness. People who use this product often complain of not feeling in control of their own thoughts and emotions and, believe it or not, some people become so confused they actually start barking like a dog. So if you like the idea of developing potentially long-term neurological problems then Spanish Fly is ideal for you (we\u2019re kidding obviously).\nThe irritation of your urinary tract will be so severe that you\u2019ll literally need to urinate every few minutes, ruining any potential for sexual fun you might have been looking forward to. The most commonly reported side effect of using this product is that you constantly feel the need to urinate after taking it.\nOne of the other side effects of using this product is that you\u2019ll also experience a burning sensation in your eyes, and there\u2019s even a possibility that your vision will develop a yellow hue to it. There is no information available on how long these vision-related side effects actually last.\nBest Spanish Fly Products \u2013 Now Risk FREE\nWithin just minutes of taking a few drops of this \u201cstimulant\u201d you\u2019ll begin to experience a burning sensation in your throat and then your stomach. The irritation can become so severe that it will eventually require professional medical assistance. Many people also report feeling incredibly thirsty, but that drinking any kind of fluid has no effect on this thirst, making it unbearable as a result.\nIn large doses Spanish Fly can kill you \u2013 it\u2019s literally that toxic. Most of the genuine Spanish Fly products contain a very small amount of a poison called strychnine, and absorbed in small doses this would make you feel extremely unwell. In larger doses however it will kill you very quickly, and what\u2019s worse strychnine poisoning can be hard to trace except when it\u2019s present in your body in massive quantities.\nSo as you can see Spanish Fly is about as dangerous a substance as you would ever dare take, with side-effects so serious that you\u2019re probably wondering what it hasn\u2019t been banned completely? Unfortunately human beings have a tendency to believe myth and lore rather than actual science, which is why rhinos are still being hunted for their horns, which is then turned into an aphrodisiac product for men, for example. Basically Spanish Fly will not only do absolutely nothing for your sex drive, but it can and will endanger your health.\nThe reason why you started reading this article in the first place though is because, as a woman, you\u2019re struggling with your current lack of sexual desire and you\u2019re no doubt desperate to find a way to treat this \u201cproblem\u201d. It\u2019s impossible for anyone to understand what it feels like to lose your sex drive, unless they\u2019ve actually experienced it themselves. This sense of desperation is what drives so many people to try crazy lotions and potions like Spanish Fly to reignite the flames of passion in their life, and in their body, all over again.\nObviously Spanish Fly that can be found everywhere for dirt cheap isn\u2019t an option for boosting your libido, but you might want to take a look at other products instead. They are 100% natural (contain water, fructose and melatonin for example) way to increase your sex drive and put your libido into high gear.\nTry The Alternative Now Risk FREE\nWhy not check them out here right now?\nBest Female Libido Enhancer\nIncreasing Female Libido\nGermany Sex Drops Review",

        "raw_content": "Kate Cousins. Image courtesy of iMOVE CRC\nKate Cousins works to make Holden cars, wherever they\u2019re designed, work well in Australian conditions. And that sees her right there in the middle of the task of putting connected and automated vehicles on our roads.\nWhere are you working now Kate, and what do you do?\nI am the Active Safety and Automated Driving Lead Engineer at Holden. Which means, basically my job is to\u2026 I guess I\u2019ve got a couple of hats, but my main job is to make sure that all of the active safety features that we\u2019ve got in our vehicles here in Australia work in Australian conditions. Such as seeing how Lane Keep Assist deals with tram lines, AEB (Automatic Emergency Braking), Traffic Sign Recognition.\nAnd how did you gravitate toward doing what you\u2019re doing? I know you\u2019ve got a background in engineering at Swinburne. Was it there you went along this path or is this something before that that made you go into vehicles?\nI did robotics and mechatronics at Swinburne and they have, as part of their course, a year\u2019s work experience. Industry-based learning. I found myself at a company called Delphi which makes steering gears and shock absorbers, and that\u2019s where I caught the automotive bug.\nAnd what time were you working Delphi? And when was it you switched over to GMH? Was it straight to GMH?\nI think it was halfway through third year that I went and did a year at Delphi. I came back and finished my final year at Swinburne, and then went straight from Swinburne right into Holden, where I\u2019ve been there nearly thirteen years now.\nAlright, so you started at Holden in about 2005. So other than your study and that one year\u2019s industry-based training during your study, did you work anywhere else in the field before that?\nNo, not at all. I\u2019ve been at Holden for my whole working career.\nLucky you! And what\u2019s been the progression of your jobs there at Holden?\nI started in the graduate program which was a two-year, rotational-based program. I managed to get myself into lots of different areas, and then once that program finished I moved straight into HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Airconditioning) and I was there as the Electronic Climate Control calibrator, there for about seven years. Six or seven years doing that and then I moved across to electrical.\nAnd now you\u2019re doing a bit of work in the autonomous vehicle field. What sort of non-top secret stuff are you allowed to tell us about that you\u2019re doing now?\nWe have quite a lot of alignment with General Motors in the USA, so a lot of the technologies GM work on, we work with and help develop, particularly for the company\u2019s Australian cars.\nBut also, I think you might have heard a month or so ago, the announcement we made that Holden is now getting involved a lot in both autonomous vehicles and battery electric vehicles, designing them from the ground up. We are starting to do a lot of design work for those.\nFor Australia, or for the world?\nYes, go us! We just hired, or are in the process of hiring engineers across into Holden at the moment.\nOkay. Well, look forward to hearing more about that. And so, leaving you for a moment, we\u2019ll come back to you, but it\u2019s hypothetical time. Someone\u2019s walked up to you and said, \u201cI\u2019ve got this very large bucket of money and within this reasonable time frame, I\u2019d like you to take a stab at a problem and fix it in the transport field.\u201d What would your big bucks project be?\nSo I guess part of the last 18 months something that I\u2019ve been working on is a traffic sign recognition system that we\u2019ve just brought out in the new Holden Acadia. I\u2019ve driven across all of Australia and New Zealand, every state except for Tasmania, and making sure that we can capture all the street signs that we\u2019ve got in Australia. And what we found is that we are very inconsistent in Australia. New Zealand wasn\u2019t too bad. Actually New Zealand was quite good, but Australia, we are terrible.\nEvery state has a different school zone and sometimes more than one school zone type within the state. Different times, different fonts, different shapes, different size of signs, different placements, different rules. So it\u2019s been an interesting exploration. At the moment that\u2019s where my passion lies. It just so happens that Austroads were commissioned by the government to do an inquiry into that last year, and I\u2019ve been heavily involved in helping it flesh out where all the issues lie, along with recommendations on how we can fix them.\nIf we want autonomous vehicles here in the near future, we need to fix our rules, regulations, signs, and basic infrastructure, and make it consistent across Australia.\nAnd lines, correct. That\u2019s one we\u2019re about to start looking on at the moment is line markings.\nBasically your big bucks idea would be to harmonise Australia for autonomous vehicles or bring in, before that, common sense in this area?\nYes, correct. It will help everyone across the whole industry too. There\u2019s been some instances where car companies have brought out, for example, the traffic sign feature, thinking that it would be the same as in Europe. Brought it out and within two weeks they retract it.\nI think if we want to help Australia develop and get some of these new features in our cars, and speed up that process, we need to make sure that we\u2019re across the infrastructure side as well.\nYou mentioned we\u2019re making these cars for Australian conditions. How much do you think the world needs to harmonise lines and signs?\nIt definitely does. I think we need to across the world, whether it\u2019s the Geneva Convention or whatever it is we pick, I think yes definitely we need to harmonise. Particularly as we move away from the right-hand / left-hand drive conversation that we\u2019ve had for years. As we\u2019re moving into autonomous vehicles and that gets less and less important, I think the current concern is the rules and the infrastructure across the world being harmonised.\nDo you think it\u2019s achievable, given that humans don\u2019t like change? Might there be an uproar about loss of national character if we go making our lines and signs the same as the rest of the world?\nI think there\u2019s a difference between character and some of the vital things like signs. Also the more people we have coming in to Australia, or moving interstate, the more road rules, signs, and lines, are universally, and easily, understood.\nAlright. And now moving on to the small budget hypothetical. A small amount of money to make an appreciable impact upon a transport problem. What would you pick?\nIt would be along similar lines to my big budget hypothetical answer. I think my small budget fix would be to pick one item, for example just the street signs, and make those common across Australia.\nAnd would you attack that in order of potential of danger?\nI\u2019ll give an example where in Victoria you see signs popping up all the time, new signs where you\u2019ve got the 40 sign with crossroad arrow signs.\nI\u2019m new to Victoria \u2026\nOkay. It\u2019s 40 kilometres an hour, with arrows pointing left and right, which indicates that the speed limit of the road you\u2019re about to cross is 40.\nIf you\u2019re turning into the road then you\u2019ll get a new sign saying it\u2019s 40 so it makes it easy. So it makes it easy for the driver to look at it and go, \u201cOkay, this sign on the road I\u2019m about to turn into is forty,\u201d but as we\u2019re moving further and further into technology path, this doesn\u2019t help the technology. In fact it confuses it slightly.\nOkay, back to you, of what you\u2019ve done so far, what\u2019s the project or work you\u2019ve done that you\u2019re most proud of?\nNot trying to promote the brand or anything, but I think the Holden Acadia we launching in the last few weeks, I think is probably from an active safety point and technology point, probably one of the strongest that we\u2019ve had our portfolio.\nI\u2019ve been able to make a difference being here making sure that Australia, or that Holden, gets the right active safety features in this car that not necessarily the rest of GM has yet. In this car we\u2019ve got a lot of firsts for not only Holden, but for GM. For example bike detection. We are the first to have AEB for bikes. We are the first in GM to get this technology.\nIn the GM world, yes. And I think that\u2019s because we\u2019ve made a push saying that our landscape in Australia, we love our cyclists and bicycles are a big part of our culture. It\u2019s a feature that we desperately need here in Australia, whereas other markets won\u2019t necessarily need it as much. So the features that I\u2019ve managed to get into this vehicle are a great addition, and make it a stronger vehicle for the brand.\nOf all the technologies coming at us, what is it that\u2019s three to five years out that you\u2019re most excited about?\nSo it\u2019s interesting. You break it down, but with active safety features you put them all together and you get an autonomous vehicle. But we\u2019ve done a lot of research and I think that customers need a slow adoption of these features. We can\u2019t just throw them all in autonomous vehicles and expect everything to feel fine.\nNo, because that would perhaps make us have to read the manual.\nOh yes, God forbid! We\u2019re going to get more and more active safety features being introduced in these vehicles which will enable customers to feel more comfortable when they finally get to level five autonomous vehicles. I think the next three to five years will enable the transition to these new features to be easier. Some of the features we\u2019ve got coming out, which I obviously can\u2019t talk about, sorry about that, I think are very exciting and will help that transition.\nI\u2019ve asked people this a few times and I think so far there\u2019s reasonable agreement in the answer, but how far away do you think we are from anywhere near like a level four, level five autonomous car being on the roads publicly, legally, regulatory all good to go?\nI think you have to put them in two buckets. There\u2019s level four or five in a ride sharing type of environment, and then there\u2019s obviously level four and level five in which there\u2019s personal ownership. I think that second scenario is a long way away. I think the technology that we\u2019ve got in cars is too expensive for the public to purchase at the moment. I think where it\u2019s going to be in the nearer future is with ride-sharing type applications. And I think they\u2019re probably closer than everyone thinks they are.\nOh really? See, I wouldn\u2019t have drawn the distinction between public ownership and shared ownership because I thought the bigger problems would have been proving the technology and getting the regulatory side of things right. But you\u2019re saying it\u2019s a monetary matter?\nMonetary, I think, in terms of the difference between ride sharing and ownership. I think definitely the way of the future is moving away from ownership and going to ride sharing or renting.\nBut certainly in our lifetime, we love driving, we\u2019re a driving culture, we have that. It\u2019s going to take a while for people to not want to have that bit of their own they can drive in peace, and not have to share with anybody else, or borrow anybody else\u2019s car, or rent a car. I think ownership is going to be a long way in the future.",

        "raw_content": "Let\u0092s continue our study of the topic of the fear of the Lord as found in Proverbs by amplifying further the third point in our outline: When you fear the Lord your life will change \u0096 you\u0092ll be blessed. You will change behaviorally. Listen to Proverbs 14:2, \u0093He whose walk is upright fears the Lord.\u0094 If you don\u0092t change behaviorally there would be reason to doubt that you truly fear the Lord. One commentator describes the fear of the Lord as a reverential subordination to the Most Holy One. This is what the apostle Peter had in mind when he wrote in 1 Peter 1:14-16, \u0093As obedient children, do not conform to the evil desires you had when you lived in ignorance. But just as he who called you is holy, so be holy in all you do; for it is written: \u0091Be holy, because I am holy.\u0092\u0094 Jesus said the same thing in His sermon on the mount, Matthew 5:16, 20 and 48, \u0093Let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven\u0085For I tell you that unless your righteousness surpasses that of the Pharisees and the teachers of the law, you will certainly not enter the kingdom of heaven\u0085Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect.\u0094 Peterson in The Message puts that last verse this way: \u0093In a word, what I\u0092m saying is, Grow up. You\u0092re kingdom subjects. Now live like it. Live out your God-created identity. Live generously and graciously toward others, the way God lives toward you.\u0094 When you realize what\u0092s at stake once you identify yourself as a follower of Jesus Christ your deepest desire should be to behave in a Christ-like fashion.",

        "raw_content": "Apple is looking into its Apple Watch supply chain after a report was published last week claiming its manufacturer relied on student interns to complete the devices, according to the Financial Times. Sacom, a human rights group, claims Quanta Computer, a Taiwanese Apple supplier, employed students illegally and required them to work overtime and night shifts with only one day off per week. Sacom says Quanta exclusively manufactures the Apple Watch Series 1, 2, and 4 and is the main manufacturer of the Series 3.\nThe group says it interviewed 28 high school students at the Quanta Computer factory in Chongqing, China, this summer. Most of them were aged between 16 and 18 and performed rote tasks on the production line.\nThe students claim their teachers told them they wouldn\u2019t be able to graduate on time without this work. One student majoring in auto repair told the group: \u201cI told my teacher I do not want to do this job. He then called my father and talked to him for more than an hour. My father then pressured me, so I had no choice but to come.\u201d\nSacom claims that many of the students\u2019 majors had nothing to do with electronics and that they saw no benefit from this internship that involved assembling parts for 12 hours a day, sometimes from 8PM to 8AM. We\u2019ve reached out to Apple for comment on the story, but in the meantime, the company issued a statement to the Financial Times and said:\n\u201cWe are urgently investigating the report that student interns added in September are working overtime and night shifts. We have zero tolerance for failure to comply with our standards and we ensure swift action and appropriate remediation if we discover [supplier code] violations.\u201d\nPreviousJournalist assaulted by Mahama\u2019s security detail.\nNextTrump administration considering limiting asylum seekers at southern border, could raise standard to claim asylum",

Esprit posted revenues of HK$19.4bn ($2.5bn) last year.\nEsprit had said in March that it aimed to increase its margin by around 1 percentage point over the next two years, to close loss-making stores in Europe and APAC over the next 2-3 years, and to reduce operating expenses by at least HK$1.0bn in over next two years.",

        "title": "Harmony's Travels: Best of Part 1",
        "raw_content": "I have been putting this off and I know that if I delay much longer, I will forget some of the most wonderful aspects of my trip.\nFirst off, I believe that New Zealand is probably the most user-friendly country to travel in. The people are so friendly and willing to accomodate questions and suggestions. They will set up bus tours and book hostels for you. Basically, you show up and they do everything for you. They offer a free tour of Auckland through the KIWI experience to showcase their travel company and show off the largest city in New Zealand. Auckland is not that great, however. I met many kiwi's that recommended staying for a few days and then heading south. I took that advice and felt so comfortable relying on the people to maneuver the islands.\nThe worst drivers have got to be in Australia. They have signs that say--CAUTION CARS. As you can see, as a pedestrian, you have few rights and so I recommend that if you travel to Australia, seriously, WATCH FOR CARS. They speed up if you attempt to walk in front of them.\nThe best airline would definitely be TACA since they put my in first class for no apparent reason. I loved sitting in first class and wish that I could fly that way every time I travel. I was the only female and definitely the only traveler. The rest of them were businessmen and I stood out with my attire and lack of jacket. It felt great to be treated like royalty.\nSouth African Airlines was also quite nice. I flew from Joburg to Cape Town and back and experienced the generosity of that particular airline. They served a meal on an hour and a half flight. It was weird since it was such a short distance, but they served a full meal in flight.\nThe best bus, in terms of comfort, would be Argentina's Chevallier. They served a snack, wine, meal, breakfast and entertained us with music from Mana, in addition to two movies. Of course, the ride was 19 hours and so comfort was necessary. I experienced 3 different bus lines and so not all were as fantastic as Chevallier. I enjoyed the idea of a semi-cama where the seat would recline back. However, I couldn't do anything about the fact that my legs were still cramped in the space. After riding for 19+ hours, I would experience severe swelling in my ankles and knees...i felt like i was pregnant or something. I hated that sensation and so I opted to avoid long bus rides while in Chile. Plus, in Chile, I heard a story from a couple from Scotland that spent 22 hours on a bus that had a broken wind shield. They stopped to wrap the glass in plastic, cover it with a blanket and then continue. The girl told me that she kept thinking that they would stop, switch busses and continue. Instead, the bus continued until the destination. They didn't die, but the girl said she believed that they would since the driver couldn't see out of the window.\nI believe the best food was in Argentina. They have fantastic pizza and italian food. For steak lovers, you too, would be pleased. Obviously, for me, it wasn't an attraction. I could have spent a year in Argentina, alone, with the value of the dollar and the food that was available. They have cafes everywhere in Buenos Aires and they are open all night. I loved walking around Centro and finding random gems that were family owned and fantastic. I would love to return and explore more.\nBest book stores--Australia and New Zealand. I loved walking into a store and reading a book without being asked to either purchase it or leave. I am a speed reader and several times, the hostels had a poor selection of books and so I would go to a book store and peruse the inventory. I didn't care for the prices of books there. They were exorbirant in both countries. I cannot see buying a book for more than I can find it in the States. I also loved reading the pop culture magazines. Every country follows Tom Kat, Brangelina and the Beckhams. It was nuts to see how much press these morons are given. I would read in airports or while in bookstores. I wasn't too choosy on my readin, either.\nChile had Starbuck's-my salvation--but New Zealand had fantastic, non-chain lattes. I loved the coffee in New Zealand and became spoiled by it. In Australia, it tasted different and so I opted to detox the caffeine from my system.\nI met the most interesting people in Australia. I enjoyed the natives and the travelers alike. I was fortunate to meet Teja in Melourne and Apollo By who was from Slovenia, Petra in Melbourne, who was from Germany and of course, Ilona who lives near Sydney. I met wonderful people in Western Australia too. I enjoyed volunteering at Govinda's and really liked Perth. I would like to return to Australia to check out the Gold Coast, spend more time in Melbourne and Sydney and see my friend, Ilona. I think I will avoid the West this time since I have my lovely little reminder from New Year's Eve still giving me grief!\nThis is the beginning of the best of. It is a teaser since I know that there is so much more that I discovered while traveling the Southern Hemisphere. I urge you to consider a trip abroad today. Why not? What do you have to lose?",

He can string sentences together.\nHe lacks, however, a certain credential that is important in his assessing the president\u2019s state of mind and, I\u2019ll presume, his medical competence: Harwood lacks a medical degree.\nHe writes for the New York Times, he once wrote for the Wall Street Journal and he is a contributor to CNBC, the cable news network that specializes in business news. He graduated from Duke University with a degree in history and economics.\nBut here he goes, popping off about Donald Trump\u2019s mental state. He said the president\u2019s press conference before departing the G-7 summit was a stumbling, bumbling performance.\nThen he said this on MSNBC: I got to say that the upshot about this press conference was about tariffs. I\u2019ll be honest as a citizen: I\u2019m concerned about the president\u2019s state of mind. He did not look well to me in that press conference. He was not speaking logically or rationally. It sounded as if he was making stuff up, saying China told me nobody\u2019s ever talked to us, saying, \u2018Oh, I talked to Justin Trudeau and can\u2019t believe he was getting away with so much trade stuff.\u2019\nI don\u2019t think those things are true. And he \u2014 there was something about his affect which was oddly kind of languid for him. I don\u2019t know what it means but he did not look well to me.\nC\u2019mon, Mr. Harwood. Leave the diagnoses to the pros, the individuals who have training in observing people\u2019s behavior.\nThis kind of cheap-seat evaluation is getting tiresome. A journalist\u2019s national forum does not give him license to discuss issues of which he knows nothing.\nDonald TrumpG-7. John HarwoodMSNBCNew York TimesWall Street Journal\nMore chaos from Trump; this time it\u2019s those Paris Accords\nThis is what I mean when I mention the chaos that emanates from Donald J. Trump\u2019s White House.\nHe said he would pull out of the Paris Climate Accord, citing the worldwide agreement to cut carbon emissions as endangering U.S. jobs. Then comes word that the president is having second thoughts.\nMajor media outlets \u2014 such as the Wall Street Journal \u2014 report that Trump is having second thoughts about his decision to pull out of the agreement. The White House says \u201cno!\u201d that\u2019s not the case at all. The president intends to pull out; he\u2019s going to keep one of his major campaign promises, White House flacks insist.\nThen there\u2019s confusion over whether he wants to renegotiate the accords to make them more acceptable to whatever concerns he has over them. Is he willing to renegotiate or not? A European Union officials said the United States won\u2019t renegotiate the deal, but will review the terms to decide if there\u2019s some wiggle room to allow continued U.S. participation.\nSheesh! I keep wishing for a No Drama Obama type of White House operation. Former President Barack Obama used to operate under a premise that the less drama, confusion and, yes, chaos, the better for the White House.\nDonald Trump\u2019s modus operandi is to pursue precisely the opposite result. The more chaos and confusion, the better.\nCan we get our stories straight? Ever?\nBarack ObamaDonald TrumpEUParis climate accordWall Street Journal\nGOP comes down with \u2018buyer\u2019s remorse\u2019\nBuyer\u2019s remorse must be spreading.\nBritish voters agree to pull Great Britain out of the European Union and now might be regretting that decision.\nNow we hear that most Republicans in this country want someone other than Donald J. Trump to be their party\u2019s presidential nominee.\nIn both cases, I fear that voters will have to live with the consequences of their decision.\nhttp://www.politico.com/story/2016/06/donald-trump-republicans-polls-224853\nA poll published by NBC News and the Wall Street Journal say that 45 percent of Republicans want Trump to be their nominee. They want someone else to carry the banner into the fight this fall against Hillary Rodham Clinton and the Democrats.\nSorry, folks. Here\u2019s the thing: Trump has won more primary contests by far than anyone else. He\u2019s collected enough convention delegates to win the nomination on the first ballot. He\u2019s going to be the GOP nominee this summer when delegates gather in Cleveland.\nWe have a saying in Texas that goes something like this:\nSure, Trump has a seemingly endless list of failings as a national political leader. No need to detail them here. You know what they are.\nBut he\u2019s won a fair-and-square primary fight against a large field of opponents, most of whom were much more qualified than he is to become commander in chief.\nHe\u2019s your guy, GOP.\nGood luck at the dance.\nBrexit voteDonald TrumpEUGOPNBCWall Street Journal\nHillary might not win the nomination \u2026 really?\nIs it entirely possible that Hillary Rodham Clinton \u2014 the one-time candidate of destiny for the Democratic Party \u2014 could lose here party\u2019s presidential nomination after all?\nDouglas Schoen \u2014 a former pollster for President Bill Clinton \u2014 thinks it\u2019s possible.\nHis thesis is simple.\nIf U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders wins the California primary next Tuesday, the Democratic brass is going to come down with a case of terminal heebie-jeebies at the prospect of nominating a badly damaged candidate for the presidency.\nWhere would they turn? Who would redeem the party\u2019s political fortunes?\nThat would be the vice president of the United States of America, Joseph Biden.\nThe vice president has said repeatedly two seemingly contradictory things about his decision to opt out of running for the presidency.\nOne is that he believes he made the right call. Two is that he regrets making that decision.\nYou might ask: Huh?\nIf you are, I get it. I\u2019ve asked the same thing.\nhttp://www.newsmax.com/Politics/Doug-Schoen-Pollster-Democrat-Hillary/2016/06/01/id/731649/\nHonestly, I don\u2019t know what will happen after Tuesday. Everyone\u2019s expectation is that Clinton will secure enough delegates to win the nomination on the first ballot when Democrats gather this summer in Philadelphia. In addition to California, voters in the Dakotas and New Jersey are going to the polls.\nClinton cancelled campaign events in Jersey to concentrate on California.\nWhat does all this mean for Biden?\n\u201cMr. Biden would be cast as the white knight rescuing the party, and the nation, from a possible (Donald J.) Trump presidency,\u201d the Democratic pollster said in an op-ed published in the Wall Street Journal.\nI\u2019ve stated already my admiration for the vice president. I wish he would have run. I understand why he stayed out. His son, Beau, had just died. The man is still mourning his son\u2019s death.\nIn every other political year, though, it would appear that Biden\u2019s decision to stay out of the race would be cast in stone.\nAs we\u2019ve seen at almost every step along the way in this election season, this ain\u2019t like anything we\u2019ve ever seen.\nBernie SandersCalifornia primaryDonald TrumpHillary ClintonJoe BidenWall Street Journal\nmedia news, national news, political news\nWhat\u2019s with this \u2018national poll\u2019?\nMore often than not I\u2019m going to look carefully at public opinion poll results.\nIn this election season, we\u2019re being inundated with them. Republican-leaning polls say one thing; Democratic-leaning polls say another. I prefer to look most closely at polls unaffiliated with either party, or certain ideological think tanks, or media outlets I know to have bias in either direction.\nBut one recent poll has me wondering: Is this one even relevant to anything?\nHillary Clinton leads Bernie Sanders by 25 percentage points nationally, according to a poll released by NBC News and the Wall Street Journal.\nThe relevancy issue?\nWell, consider a couple of things.\nThey\u2019re both running for the Democratic Party presidential nomination, which means that they\u2019re not going to face each other in a national election. Therefore, they are battling state by state: Iowa, then New Hampshire, then South Carolina . . . and on it goes.\nThey\u2019ll get to Texas in early March.\nTherefore, whether Clinton beats Sanders by a single percent or a million percent in a national poll doesn\u2019t matter one bit.\nHow are they faring in each state?\nThe poll does compare the candidates\u2019 chances against a potential Republican nominee and it shows Clinton faring better against the GOP foe than Sanders.\nThat\u2019s relevant, I guess.\nHowever, these polls pitting one candidate against the other running in the same party primary simply doesn\u2019t register with me.\nBernie SandersDemocratic Party primaryHillary ClintonNBC Newspublic opinion pollsWall Street Journal\nSome self-awareness, Mr. Vice President\nDick Cheney\u2019s utter lack of self-awareness is an astounding thing to behold.\nThe former vice president and his daughter, Liz, have co-written a book, \u201cExceptional: Why the World Needs a Powerful America.\u201d In an extended excerpt published in the Wall Street Journal, Cheney writes that President Obama has made \u201cfalse\u201d statements about the Iran nuclear deal.\nFalse statements? Yes, the man who orchestrated \u2014 along with the rest of the George W. Bush national security team \u2014 this nation\u2019s invasion of Iraq on a whole array of falsehoods has now laid the charge on the man who succeeded President Bush in the White House.\nHe has joined the GOP amen chorus in blaming Obama for the rise of the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria, contending that the United States has \u201cabandoned\u201d Iraq and is \u201con course\u201d to do the same thing in Afghanistan.\nI don\u2019t disagree with the title of the Cheneys\u2019 book. The world does need a \u201cpowerful America.\u201d I will simply add my own view that the world still has a powerful America in its midst.\nWe remain the world\u2019s pre-eminent military power \u2014 by a long shot. Our economy is still the envy of the world. People are aching to gain entry into the United States. Yes, many of them come here illegally, but many more come here legally and in accordance with federal immigration law.\nLet us stop denigrating our current role in the world \u2014 as many of the GOP presidential candidates have done \u2014 by suggesting we\u2019ve lost our place at the top of the geopolitical food chain.\nAs for the former vice president, he needs to take time for some serious introspection before he accuses others of stating foreign-policy falsehoods.\nRead more on this link.\nBarack ObamaDick CheneyIraq WarLiz CheneyWall Street Journal\nWSJ gives congressional GOP a swift kick\nWhen the men and women who run Capitol Hill \u2014 the Republicans \u2014 lose The Wall Street Journal, then they\u2019ve lost their most critical media ally.\nI\u2019m not suggesting the WSJ has abandoned the GOP majority, but the paper\u2019s conservative editorial page \u2014 one of the best opinion pages in the country \u2014 turns on you, then you\u2019d better pay attention.\nhttp://www.politico.com/story/2015/03/homeland-security-shutdown-cliff-republicans-wall-street-journal-115651.html?hp=b2_l1\nI\u2019ve long admired the WSJ editorial writers for the way they express themselves. I disagree with the paper\u2019s editorial policy, but few editorial pages say it better than the Wall Street Journal.\nThe WSJ editors are angry at what they\u2019re calling the GOP \u201cCliff Marchers,\u201d the faction of Republicans who are intent on making some political point than in any actually governing.\nAs Politico reports about the WSJ\u2019s scolding: \u201cHouse Republicans refuse to fund (Department of Homeland Security) without forcing the president to dismantle the changes (in Barack Obama\u2019s executive order on immigration), while Senate Republicans do not believe they can win the standoff. The Senate voted last week to fund the department through the end of the fiscal year without altering the president\u2019s immigration orders, but the House has not yet agreed to take up the bill.\u201d\nThe WSJ writes: \u201cRepublicans need to do some soul searching about the purpose of a Congressional majority, including whether they even want it.\u201d\nThe Journal argues that Congress should go fund DHS and move on to bigger issues, such as the budget. The paper believes the president\u2019s immigration order \u2014 in which he delays deportation of millions of undocumented residents \u2014 will be settled by the courts.\nIt\u2019s good advice. Are you listening, GOP members of Congress? Get busy and start governing.\nCapitol HillDHS fundingGOP majorityimmigarationPoliticoTea partyWall Street Journal\nActually, Mr. Mayor, I heard you clearly\nRudy Guiliani has tried to explain his harsh criticism of Barack Obama by saying that his bluntness got in the way of his message.\nHe writes in the Wall Street Journal: \u201cMy blunt language suggesting that the president doesn\u2019t love America notwithstanding, I didn\u2019t intend to question President Obama\u2019s motives or the content of his heart.\u201d\nWell, OK. I heard his remarks. I\u2019ve read them carefully. I think I understand exactly what he said and the message he intended to convey.\nFor the record, the former New York mayor was speaking at an event honoring Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, who\u2019s considering a run for the Republican presidential nomination next year. Guiliani decided to say that the president \u201cdoesn\u2019t love America.\u201d Then he went on to say he didn\u2019t question the president\u2019s patriotism.\nThose statements seem to be mutually exclusive. A patriot, by definition, loves his country. Am I missing something? I don\u2019t think so.\nThe former mayor \u2014 a one-time candidate for the GOP presidential nomination \u2014 went on at some length to tell his audience that the president has a \u201cdifferent\u201d view of the nation from, well, others.\nA day or two later, Guiliani tried to counter criticism from some that his attacks were racially motivated, saying that the president was raised by a \u201cwhite mother.\u201d Someone will have to explain that one to me.\nThen he mentioned that young Barack was brought up with \u201ccommunist influences.\u201d Huh?\nI heard the former mayor clearly. I think I know what he intended to say. He\u2019s a well-educated, usually well-spoken man who\u2019s used to the limelight. He undoubtedly wasn\u2019t suffering from stage fright at that dinner the other evening.\nHe simply was mistaken to the max in his assessment of the president\u2019s love of country.\n2016 campaignBarack ObamacommunistsGOP nominationpatriotismRudy GuilianiScott WalkerWall Street Journal\nPeggy Noonan is a brilliant writer and solid conservative thinker.\nHowever, she\u2019s misinformed if she can predict that Mitt Romney would repeat the mistakes that doomed his 2012 presidential campaign in the event he chooses to run for president once again in 2016.\nhttp://www.wsj.com/articles/dont-do-it-mr-romney-1421367202\nShe implores Mitt not to run for the White House next year.\nC\u2019mon, Ms. Noonan. Give the guy a shot. Let\u2019s see if he can correct those mistakes.\nShe writes in the Wall Street Journal: \u201cHe is yesterday, we need tomorrow. He is an example of what didn\u2019t work, we have to turn the page. He is and always has been philosophically murky\u2014it\u2019s almost part of his charm\u2014but it\u2019s not what\u2019s needed now. He ran a poor campaign in 2012 and will run a poor one in 2016. He was a gaffe machine \u2014 \u201847%\u2019; \u201cI have some great friends that are Nascar team owners\u201d \u2014 and those gaffes played into the party\u2019s brand problems.\u201d\nI\u2019ve been saying for a few weeks now that Mitt needs to seek to redeem himself. Yes, he ran a shoddy campaign. He could have avoided those missteps and perhaps made a serious horse race of it against President Obama. It was reasonably close in the popular vote, but the president\u2019s Electoral College win was quite decisive.\nI\u2019m not planning to vote for Mitt if he chooses to run again.\nI\u2019m simply rooting for his redemption. He\u2019s smarter than he demonstrated on the 2012 campaign trail. I mean, he did rescue a floundering Olympic bid in Salt Lake City. And, oh yes, he authored a health care reform bill in Massachusetts that became a model for the federal program pushed through Congress by the man he sought to defeat; it\u2019s just too bad he all but disavowed the Massachusetts plan as he sought to condemn the Affordable Care Act.\nI know Mitt will be a long shot, what with the TEA party wing of the GOP grooming candidates to make their pitch.\nGo for it, Mitt.

        "raw_content": "At least 10 USA states have reported cases of measles so far in 2019, including Washington, where an outbreak is to blame for 50 cases.\nNews 3 medical expert Dr. Ryan Light said the decline in vaccinations could lead to even more measles cases across the country.\nChildren who are deficient in vitamin A are at higher risk for severe complications from measles if they get the disease, but most children in the USA receive sufficient amounts in their diet. They're also confirming that one of the known cases involves a person who had one dose of the MMR vaccine, but not the second.\n\"The measles vaccine isn't ideal, but one dose is 93 percent effective at preventing illness\", Melnick said. Two doses are about 97% effective. Despite measles being declared eradicated in the United States in 2000, there have been periodic outbreaks. Washington's exemption rate, although lower, is also high when compared with other states.\nShe said there have been two cases of measles in 29 years in Auburn and both were not vaccinated.\nThe Oregon Legislature needs to act. Sen. The Legislature now requires parents to either watch an educational video or talk to a doctor before claiming the exemption. Another anti-vaccination group, Informed Choice Washington, had its members at the statehouse on Thursday trying to dissuade lawmakers.\nShe said because people don't see the disease, some individuals are more scared of the vaccine than the virus. The largest recent outbreak in California was in 2015 - which was linked to Disneyland.\nObviously, some people really shouldn't be immunized: Anyone who ever has had a life-threatening allergic reaction to the antibiotic neomycin, or anyone who's pregnant, or if you're ill when you're scheduled to get your shots. Most children in the USA are vaccinated, with 91% of 19-to-35 month-olds having at least one dose and about 94% of those entering kindergarten having two doses. Parents who don't want to immunize their children can homeschool or enroll their children in independent study at the local public school.\nMeasles can be spread through direct contact and as an airborne virus. \"Complications include pneumonia, brain swelling and possible brain damage, and death\". High fever, rash all over the body, stuffy nose and reddened eyes are typical measles symptoms, though these usually disappear without treatment within two or three weeks.\nThe age of the measles victims has also trended upward, but the bulk are still 1 to 10 years old. Patients are contagious four days before and four days after getting the rash. At least 34 people affected are children between 1 and 10.\n\"If someone in the room has it and sneezes, and it goes around the room, pretty much anyone in that room will pick up that virus and may get sick from it if they're susceptible to it\".\nThe American, 74, who is regarded as a pioneer in fixed-income investing, co-founded Pimco in 1971, where he earned his nickname. Gross ran the PIMCO Total Return Fund, which was once the world's largest bond fund at a peak of $292.9 billion in assets.\nVaughan and Pia Guerra's Y: The Last Man has been picked up to series based off the network's previously- reported pilot.

The little church is unique in design and one of the most attractive little churches in the city.\nThe church is constructed of cedar shakes, with brown stained woodwork. The windows are of amber glass in simple leaded patterns of the casement type. Architect E. C. Hemmings drew the plans for the building. The structure cost $8,000.\n[One striking] feature of the structure is the entrance, which is on a Pergola porch, formed by big bark covered cedar logs. Both the auditorium and social rooms have open trussed roofs with rolling partitions, so that both rooms may be used as one in the event of a big crowd. A big \ufb01replace of mission tile makes the social room the coziest part of the church.\nA most delightful feature of the building was later discovered to be the effects of the tall windowed alcove behind the pulpit. There the hanging drapery curtains diffused the natural light from the east windows so that it streamed down to accentuate the form and color of \ufb02owers and greenery from \ufb01eld and garden customarily placed there for morning services.\nThe church was later demolished to make way for another Uniitarian church which was also later destroyed. The site is now occupied by homes.\nTags: Craftsman, E.C. Hemmings, Faith / Worship, Sacramento",

        "raw_content": "Was an alliance between the PRC and The Soviet Union inevitable?\nThis Essay was written for the course: China and International Politics. As part of my MSC at SOAS.\n(Most of the posters are taken form the site http://chineseposters.net/index.php)\nChina and International Politics\nThis paper will argue that the Sino-Soviet alliance was inevitable. Following the overthrow of the nationalist regime in 1949 Mao Tze-tung (Mao) and the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) wanted and sought an alliance with the Soviet Union. There were ideological, strategic, economic and personal reasons why Mao leaned towards the Soviet Union.\nLong-live-the-friendship between China and The Soviet Union\nRecent evidence points to the fact that there was never a possibility that Mao would lean in any other direction and especially not to the American camp. However, an overview of the historical relationship between the Soviet Union and the CCP reveals that there were a number of underlying tensions between the two sides that might have suggested an alliance was far from inevitable and may have been a surprise. It may also be argued, that the alliance was achieved by papering over the cracks in Sino-Soviet relations. Therefore this paper will be divided into two parts. The first part starts with an historical analysis of the tumultuous relationship between the future allies up until the end of the war with Japan. Two important theories will be debated. Firstly, was Mao trying to keep the CCP from Moscow\u2019s dominance? Secondly, how antagonistic were relations between the Mao and Stalin? The second part will analyse how Marxist ideology was always going to drive the CCP into the Soviet Camp and why it was inevitable that relations between the CCP and America would become estranged in a new world order where neutrality was impossible.\nThe First United Front and the Jianxi Soviet\nWelcome-to-the-Red-Cradle Jinggangshan \u4e95\u5188\u5c71\nThroughout the 1920s and 1930s the Soviet Union attempted to subordinate the CCP to the control of the Communist International, the Comintern. In turn, the Comintern became a tool with which Stalin enforced the internationalist line laid down by Moscow. A major element of the internationalist policy was to follow Lenin\u2019s theory that fledgling Communist movements in colonial or semi-colonial countries had to form a united front with national liberation movements despite their bourgeois character. The aim was that the communists would then seize control of the nationalist movements from within. In the case of China this meant the Comintern bringing the CCP into an alliance with the Kuomingdung (KMT).\nHuanyangjie-battle Field View-Point\nThe First United Front ended in a total disaster, and almost led to the annihilation of the CCP. A mixture of Chiang Kai Shek\u2019s refusal to play by the Comintern rules, and the Comintern tactics based on Stalin\u2019s misinterpretations of events played a major part in the debacle. However, Stalin managed to make the CCP leader Chen Tu-hsiu a scapegoat for the failure of his own Policies. Interestingly, Chen had been sceptical of the alliance.\nHaving been forced to retreat into China\u2019s remote hinterland, Mao began his experiment with rural soviets. By 1931 a large part of the CCP, including the Red Army was outside of Moscow\u2019s control, and Mao was only paying lip service to orders from the underground and ineffectual Moscow backed Party Central Committee in Shanghai. During the Jianxi Soviet period, Mao was able to put into practice both his ideas on peasant mobilization, land reform, and guerrilla tactics. However, when the situation in Shanghai became untenable, the entire leadership of the CCP moved on mass to the Jianxi Soviet.\nMoscow sent twenty-eight trained Chinese cadres under the leadership of Wang Ming to regain control of the party apparatus and contest Mao\u2019s position (Dittmer, 1992, p. 4). With the arrival of the Twenty-eight Bolsheviks, Mao\u2019s ranking in the party hierarchy appears to have been seriously undermined, especially during the later Jianxi period. While at the same time his rural experiment became the subject of leftist excesses. In addition, the Comitern military advisors also reversed Mao\u2019s previously successful guerrilla tactics for more conventional military tactics. The result was the destruction of the Jiangxi Soviet and the start of the Long March.\nThe Impact upon Mao and the CCP of the continued failure of Moscow inspired internationalist interventions between 1927 and 1935 cannot be underestimated. At the same time Mao had radically turned Marxist-Leninism on its head. The peasants and not the industrial proletariat had become the vanguard of the revolution. Mao had Sinicized Marxism and made it \u201c\u2026specific to Chinese characteristics :\u201d( Dittmer, 1992, p.4). Furthermore, among Mao and his followers in the CCP, a determination sprung up not to allow the party to become subjected to complete Soviet domination (Ibid).\nMao\u2019s leadership and the Second United Front\nThe following period covers the Second United Front and the war against Japan. The key issues during this phase were over Mao\u2019s leadership that he won during the Long March, Mao\u2019s continuing battle with the internationalists in the CCP, the policy of the Second United Front, and whether Mao was strictly obeying Stalin\u2019s orders or trying to loosen Moscow\u2019s hold on the CCP. Two different interpretations of events will be analysed. The events surrounding Mao\u2019s rise to power in the CCP during the Long March and the subsequent Moscow instigated Second United Front with the KMT have become subject to much debate in recent years as new information has come to light. Much of this information has direct bearing on how Soviet Union and CCP developed between 1935 and 1949.\nMicheal Sheng has argued that Mao not only received full support from the Comintern during the leftist deviation period at Jiangxi but also during the period when Wang Ming and the internationalists were launching full speed into the Moscow backed United Front with the KMT. Sheng also tries to dispel the myth that Mao rose to power without Soviet endorsement by arguing that Mao didn\u2019t take advantage of the break in radio contact with Moscow at the Lunyi Conference in order to assume control of the Party by Stealth. Sheng suggests that as soon as it was possible, Mao endeavoured to restore radio links to convey to Stalin the new situation (Sheng, 1992, p.151-153).\nJohn Garver does not support the above view of events. First of all, Garver argues, that Mao won the leadership of the CCP if not in the face of Comintern opposition, he at least won it without Comintern support (Garver,1988, p.10-13). Garver suggests that Mao did indeed take advantage of the break in radio contact with Moscow to take control of the party. After all, Mao had been removed from his position as a top-level leader of the party in 1934 just prior to the Long March (Garver,1988, p.13) and could have expected Soviet opposition to his rise.\nThere is further disagreement between Sheng and Garver over the degree of discrepancies between the CCP and Moscow on the issue of the Second United Front. According to Garver, Mao was far more opposed to an alliance with Chiang Kai Shek than the Comintern and wanted to continue the armed struggle against the KMT (Garver, 1988, p.171). In addition, Garver argues, that the Soviet Union feared that the CCP might provoke Japan as well as undermining Soviet\u2013KMT diplomacy. Sheng\u2019s point is that Mao\u2019s central concern was the armed struggle but he tried to combine it with the United Front, Sheng claims that some of the internationalists in the CCP harboured even deeper anti-Chiang sentiments than Mao. It was Mao after all who carried out Stalin\u2019s instructions (Sheng, 1992, p.150/159/165). What does become clear is that the Soviet Union had to reign in the CCP in order to cement the anti-Japanese alliance; the Xian incident is a prime example. Stalin\u2019s reasons for forming an anti-Japanese alliance with the KMT did make strategic sense, given the military weakness and geographical isolation of the CCP in 1935/36. It would also not be the last time that the Soviet Union would put its own interests ahead of those of the CCP.\nDuring the anti-Japanese struggle Mao again had to battle with the internationalists in the CCP, According to Garver, Mao feared that the internationalists wished to once again subordinate the CCP to complete Moscow control (Garver, 1988, p.276). Garver argues that the German invasion of the Soviet Union gave Mao the room he needed to loosen the shackles of Soviet domination over the CCP. Just as he had done at Zunyi, Mao took advantage of the changed situation and Moscow\u2019s distractions. The fact that the Rectification Campaign of 1942 (Zheng Feng) was launched during this period lends credence to Garver\u2019s argument. Mao purged many of his opponents during this campaign and gained a free reign again in the CCP while weakening the position of the internationalists (Garver, 1988, p. 274).\nYanan-Spirit\nGarver has again challenged Sheng on a number of points over the CCP-Moscow relationship during the Second United Front. Garver admits that Mao never sought to openly reject the Comintern, neither was he antagonistic or confrontational towards it. Mao was too aware of the need not to alienate the Soviet Union. First of all because he needed their aid, no matter how little it was. Secondly, Garver claims Mao saw a time when the Soviet Union would be an ally helping to liberate China. However, Graver also adds that Mao interpreted Moscow\u2019s directives as he saw fit, believing that Moscow was out of touch with Chinese realities (Garver, 1992, p.177). Mao\u2019s aim was the expansion of revolutionary power and past experience had taught him that Moscow\u2019s lack of understanding of the situation on the ground in China could result in disaster. On this evidence it would appear that Mao was a \u201cmaster of deception\u201d (Garver,1988, p.274) by giving a public image of loyalty to Moscow on the one hand, and defying comintern directives on the other hand. Garver\u2019s overriding point is that Mao was both a revolutionary and an ardent Chinese nationalist. Stalin believed Mao could become a loyal internationalist and what Stalin didn\u2019t know was that Mao would \u201c\u2026ultimately emancipate the CCP from Moscow\u2019s Control\u201d(Garver, 1992, p.173).\nSheng argues, that Garver is wrong to put Mao in the Category of a dissident Communist, who defied Stalin and defeated the Internationalists led by Wang Ming, while conducting the diplomacy of Chinese nationalism with Moscow. Firstly, Sheng claims that Mao was sensitive to rather than confrontational with Moscow. Their differences were of \u201cemphasis rather than substance\u201d (Sheng, 1992, p.150). He also suggests that the relations between Stalin and Mao were harmonious and that Mao was responsive and amiable towards Stalin\u2019s advice (Sheng, 1992, p.181). Sheng\u2019s point here is that Stalin\u2019s role in the development of the CCP wartime strategy was important and constructive and Mao was generally obedient to Moscow\u2019s directives.\nConclusion Part 1\nTwo major issues arose from the first period of contact between the CCP and the Soviet Union. Firstly, there was the attempt by Mao and his supporters in the CCP to maintain a degree of independence from Moscow. Secondly, there was the need to adhere to the discipline of the international socialist line. The early disasters of the CCP under the guidance of the Comintern made Mao and other members of the CCP suspicious of Moscow\u2019s ability to understand Chinese realities. Garver is right to point out that Mao wanted to keep the CCP free from Moscow\u2019s domination. A large part of that struggle appears to have been waged against those, who, like Wang Ming and the internationalists were contending for power in the CCP. However, Garver over emphasises the animosity between Mao and Stalin, in fact Mao derived a lot of his legitimacy from Stalin, and Sheng is right to suggest that many of their differences were of emphasis rather than substance. Part two will analyse how these two contending Strands developed as result of the changed international environment in the aftermath of the Second World War.\nChina-and-Soviet-Friendship\nThe end of the war in Europe and with Japan in Asia ushered in a new era in world politics. The two wartime allies, the United States and the Soviet Union, had become the dominant contending powers in a bipolar conflict that saw them bitterly divided by ideology and strategic concerns. It was world in which other nations had to choose between one side and the other. Zhdanov\u2019s speech at Wiliza Gora in 1947 set the tone for international relations in the Cold War era by dividing the world into two camps. There was the \u201cimperialist and antidemocratic\u201d camp, headed by the United States and the capitalist world, and there was the \u201cdemocratic and anti-imperialist\u201d camp which was led by the Soviet Union, and included the Communist countries of Eastern Europe, and colonies well on there way to independence (McLane, 1966, p.353).\nHao-pengyoumen \u597d\u670b\u53cb\u4eec Good Friends\nStalin\u2019s oriental specialist Zhukov applied Zhdanov\u2019s thesis to the East. Firstly, he emphasised that the Soviet Union was in the same camp as the national liberation movements. Secondly, and crucially, on the issue of neutrality, Zhukov claimed it was only possible to be in support of the Soviet Union\u2019s position, or to be against it (McLane, 1966, p.353-355). The following part of the Paper will argue that the CCP never doubted which side it would take and neutrality or even leaning towards the American camp was never an option.\nThe-Soviet-Union-is-our-example \u82cf\u8054\u662f\u6211\u4eec\u7684\u699c\u6837\nThere was speculation that in the aftermath of the Sino-Soviet alliance that events could have turned out different. In some quarters in the United States it was argued that there had been a \u2018lost Chance\u2019 with China. The argument ran that in 1945 there was a \u2018window of opportunity\u2019 for dialogue with Mao and if US policy had been more flexible and neutral it was possible that Mao could have been won over. In addition, the Americans also appear to have held out hope that Mao was more of a nationalist than a full blooded communist and that even if the CCP did come to power, China would be like an Asian Yugoslavia and keep out of Moscow\u2019s umbrella ( Gaddis,19997, p.61/62). However, recent evidence doesn\u2019t appear to support either of those theories.\nStudy-the-Soviet-Union\nArguing that the \u201clost chance\u201d theory was in fact a delusion, Sheng points out, that the direction in which the CCP would lean was clear even before 1945. Mao saw himself as a Marxist, and ideological ties between the CCP and Moscow predetermined the CCP\u2019s decision to move towards the Soviet Union (Sheng,1993, p.136). In addition, Gaddis claims that the relationship between Mao and Stalin was of a fan to a superstar, with Mao being eager to receive Stalin\u2019s recognition (Gaddis, 1997, p.66). This was in spite of all the past problems that had resulted from Stalin\u2019s bad advise and meddling in CCP affairs. Drawing from such conclusions it becomes clear that the American experts on the ground in China appear to have been sold a false impression of the ideological disposition of the CCP.\nThe CCP and the United States 1945-1950\nUSA-&-China\nAn important part of the US-CCP relationship revolved around how the CCP interpreted the war time alliance in the Anti-Japanese Struggle and what would happen when the Japanese were defeated. Mao always knew that when push came to shove the US, despite what ever differences it may have had with Chiang Kai Shek, would always come down on his Chiang\u2019s and oppose the CCP (Sheng, (1993, p137). Events seem to have proved Mao right. The US broke assurances that they had given Mao over US neutrality in the civil war by air lifting thousands of nationalist troops to the north to head off the communist attempt to seize Manchuria. This experience left Mao feeling betrayed, and according to Gaddis, Mao swore he would not be cheated again.\nHowever, Deception was not always one way traffic. The CCP\u2019s wartime policy was one of extreme expediency. The false impression the US derived from the communists largely comes from the success of CCP expediency. It was a policy in which diplomacy with the US mirrored the formation of a United Front with the KMT. Both were tactical short-term objectives that subordinated the revolutionary struggle until it was time to renew it again (Sheng, 1993, p.136). As Sheng points out, for Mao \u201c\u2026anti-imperialism was an extension of the class struggle paradigm\u201d (Ibid). The principal objective of the CCP was to win over the American officials and citizens at Yenan by trying to convince them that the CCP was not a Communist party in the same mould as the Russian equivalent. New Democracy, not Communism was emphasised, and formal ties between Moscow and Yenan were denied. It was hoped that the US would become convinced that the CCP wanted good relations and that they were a party of moderates and not communists at all. The goal of this policy was for liberal opinion in the US to put pressure on the US government in order to persuade the KMT to stop its attacks on the CCP (Shum, 1988, p.226-227). There were too many hawks in the Truman administration to buy the whole CCP yarn. However, confusion in American assessments of the CCP in the ensuing years, certainly seems to have been influenced by the image that the CCP was able portray. US policy does not seem to have predicted that the CCP would lean towards Moscow.\nChinese Soldiers on Patrol\nOnce ties between the US and the CCP had begun to deteriorate Mao became convinced from 1946 onwards that the US would openly intervene in China\u2019s civil war on the side of the KTM. Mao mistakenly thought China was the centre of the US theatre of operations. According to Gaddis nothing could have been further from the truth, but Mao could never have understood that China was on the periphery of US foreign policy priorities. Mao continued to perceive that the US would intervene in China, directly or through its ally Japan, even after the establishment of the People\u2019s Republic of China (PRC). This mistaken assumption hastened the strategic reasons for concluding an alliance with the Soviet Union.\nThe CCP and the Soviet Union 1945-1950\nDuring the civil war the CCP\u2019s relations with Moscow were somewhat strained by continued Soviet recognition of Chiang Kai shek\u2019s regime. Stalin had believed that following the defeat of Japan, the KMT would re-instate its authority over China. Elleman suggests that Stalin\u2019s policy was even more cynical than first thought and that the Soviet Union resorted to playing off the KMT and the CCP against each other in order to gain territorial concessions. Stalin wanted to separate Outer Mongolia from China, and in order to do so he promised Chiang Kai Shek that if he signed away Chinese Suzerainty over Outer Mongolia, the Soviet Union wouldn\u2019t help the communists. As soon as the nationalist regime acquiesced in January 1946, the Soviet Union turned its support to Mao (Elleman, 1997, p.245-247). Elleman has argued, that the Soviet Union, through secret protocol, conducted an imperialist policy in China on a scale almost equal to that of the Japanese and the Tsarist regime before it (Elleman, 1997, p.247/285). The USSR took control of 600,000 square miles of Chinese territory and Elleman points out, that only after coming to power did Mao realise the extent of Soviet imperialism (Ibid, p.247).\nCertainly some of Stalin\u2019s actions during this period must have sent mixed signals to the CCP. First of all, after Soviet forces liberated Manchuria from the Japanese, they handed over surrendered Japanese weapons to the communists, and then proceeded to strip Manchuria of its entire industrial base and cart it back to the Soviet Union.\nSecondly, Stalin was surprised by the swiftness of the communist successes on the battlefield in 1949 and feared that the Chinese civil war would \u201c\u2026overturn the spheres of influence arrangement set up at Yalta and lead to a United States intervention in China\u201d (Garver, 1990, p.303). The spectre of a conflict with the US in China for which the Soviet Union was not prepared, led Stalin to warn Mao against driving south of the Yangtse (Gaddis, 1997, p.65). Stalin tried to manipulate Mao\u2019s fears of US intervention. Advise that Mao ignored. Again the Soviet Union\u2019s national interests took priority over those of the Chinese communists. Zhou En-lai even feared that China might be partitioned into North and South like Korea (Garver,1990, p.303).\nDespite so much Soviet duplicity and CCP misgivings over Soviet strategy, the CCP continued to adhere to the \u201c\u2026discipline of international democratic centralism,\u201d (Dittmer, 1991, p.210). Neutrality was never really an option for the PRC. The perceived threat from the US and the need for China to rebuild its economy meant it had to lean towards the Soviet Union. Mao saw in the Soviet economic model, the opportunity to use the same techniques to transform China. Undoubtedly this would involve a transfer of technology and expertise. The fact that contemporary economic growth was superior in the Communist counties in Eastern Europe than in their Western counterparts may also have been influential in convincing Mao that socialist economic development was the right route to take.\nThe speed with which the PRC and the Soviet Union entered into negotiations in the aftermath of the communists\u2019 victory is evidence that an alliance was being sought. The attitude of the Chinese Communists is clear from the statements made in 1949 when Mao announced that he was going to join the Soviet camp. This position was re-enforced by Deng Xiao Peng\u2019s comments, explaining that it was better to join an alliance voluntarily, and on their own initiative rather than be forced into one in the future (Gaddis, 1997, p.65/66). The Soviet Union was initially cautious to the PRC overtures; after all they did not control the Chinese Communists as they did the communist parties in Eastern Europe, but then welcomed the PRC into their camp. As Gaddis points out world communism would be stronger with the inclusion of the PRC and it would seem that that the inherent dangers in such a treaty would outweigh the alternatives (Ibid, p.69).\nDown with The Soviet Union and the USA \u6253\u5012\u7f8e\u5e1d\u6253\u5012\u82cf\u4fee\nThe Sino-Soviet alliance was inevitable. On the one hand Marxist ideology ensured that Mao wanted to be in the Soviet camp, and on the other, the Cold war balance of power realities meant both countries realised the advantages of facing the perceived if not real US threat together. However, it is impossible not to come to the conclusion that this was unnatural alliance. So many underlying tensions had been covered up under the discipline of Marxist rhetoric and socialist solidarity, the issue of Outer Mongolia was never mentioned in the 1950 friendship treaty (Elleman,1997, p.245). After Stalin\u2019s death, relations between the two communist giants fell apart.\nHammering-the-Sickle \u95f9\u522b\u626d\nThe bitter experiences and double standards that the CCP and China as a whole had had to suffer at the hands of the Soviet Union during the inter-war years, and the revolutionary struggle exploded into a diatribe of bitter recriminations. As Adam Ulam pointed out, \u201cThe Chinese pitilessly dissect the selfish and nationalist motivations hidden beneath the Soviets language of international solidarity and devotion to the Soviet camp\u201d (Ulam, 1976, p.681). The Sino-Soviet alliance was inevitable; its break up may have been equally inevitable.\n\u73cd\u5b9d\u5c9b Fighting the Soviets on Zhenbao Island\nDittmer,L.

Thesis (D.M.)\u2013Universidad Nacional de Buenos Aires, 1934.\nLuis Federico Leloir was born September 6, 1906, in Paris, France, while his parents were seeking medical treatment for his father. Leloir returned to Argentina in 1908 with his mother, and was raised on his grandparents\u2019 estate near San Clemente del Tuy\u00fa.\nHis early educational career was unspectacular, but in 1932, after finally passing his anatomy exams on the fourth try, he received his diploma from the University of Buenos Aires and began his residency at Hospital de Cl\u00ednicas and his medical internship at Ramos Mej\u00eda hospital.\nIt was during this period that Leloir decided he was better suited to laboratory research, and first became acquainted with Bernardo A. Houssay, who in 1947 would receive the Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine. Leloir credits Houssay as the primary influence on his entire research career.\nIn 1936, Leloir traveled to England where he studied under the 1929 Nobel Prize winner, Sir Frederick Gowland Hopkins. It was here that Leloir first began his specialized research into carbohydrate metabolism.\nAfter a brief return to Argentina in 1943, Leloir was forced to flee to the United States, because of his association with Houssay, who publicly opposed the rising Nazi regime in Germany and the fascist military leader of Argentina, Pedro Pablo Ram\u00edrez. For the remainder of World War II, Leloir held the position of associate professor in the Department of Pharmacology at Washington University in St. Louis.\nUpon his return to Argentina in 1945, he re-established his research relationship with Houssay, and in 1947 became the director of the private research group Fundaci\u00f3n Instituto Campomar where he remained until his death in 1987.\nIn 1970 Leloir received the Nobel Prize in Chemistry, for his discovery of the metabolic pathways in lactose.\nLuis F.

        "title": "Does it make sense? \u2013 Hybrid Long Term Care Plans",
        "raw_content": "You cannot always make a gamble and hope things will be okay. Although the prospect of suffering from an impairing illness late in life is not a pleasant one, it\u2019s, all the same, a possibility for the majority of us. That\u2019s why it makes sense to tie the loose ends and protect yourself and your family from possibly financial hardships by purchasing long-term care insurance.\nCosts of long-term care in this country are skyrocketing, with the average annual stay cost at a nursing home being more than $90,000. That means if you were to stay at a nursing home for 4 years, you\u2019d need to pay about $360,000 and let\u2019s not forget that\u2019s just the baseline figure. Other unplanned costs might crop up.\nWhen you buy long term care insurance and pay premiums, the insurance company pays for long-term care if you ever need it. Some people are quite skeptical about LTC policies because they feel their premiums are wasted if they die without ever needing long-term care. As a way to counter this, insurers have come up with what\u2019s called \u2018hybrid policies\u2019. Such policies combine permanent life insurance with long-term care insurance. Like typical whole life insurance, hybrid policies have a savings-component that builds up with time.\nThe policyholder can withdraw money from their policy if and when they need long term care. And here\u2019s the best part \u2013 the insurance company pays for the care if policy funds run out. Better yet, if the policyholder dies without ever needing to use expensive LTC, selected beneficiaries receive death benefits. In either case, money is not lost with a hybrid long term care policy.\nAdvantages of hybrid policies over traditional long term care plans\nWhat are the benefits of hybrid plans as compared to traditional policies. \u201cOver the last few years, we have seen a dramatic increase in the number of clients who are foregoing the traditional plans and instead opting for hybrid policies. Most of these people have similar concerns. To start with, they are bothered by the \u2018use it or lose it\u2019 scenario that surrounds traditional policies. People are asking, what happens if I peacefully pass away I my sleep? Will all the $60,000 or $80,000 that I have invested in long-term care insurance premiums go to waste? In my own opinion, the flexibility of hybrid plans, and the fact that you get paid up, either way is the number one reason why more American policy buyers are settling on hybrid plans as compared to traditional ones,\u201d Frank Meyers, an LTC industry insider.\nOf course, this fear of traditional policies by clients appears to be quite misplaced or at least emanating from having wrong expectations. \u2018Use it or lose it\u2019 is essentially the nature of insurance. It\u2019s mandatory to purchase auto insurance in this country and around the world. But even if it weren\u2019t, I don\u2019t think we\u2019d still have a lot of people who\u2019d refuse to purchase car insurance just because they might never use it. The same applies to home insurance. What\u2019s even more contradicting is this; you\u2019re much more likely to need long-term care than you\u2019re likely to have a car crash or lose your home.\nNonetheless, hybrid policies appear to be coming to the rescue for these consumers. Hybrid policies reduce people\u2019s fears of wasting their premiums because either way, your investment is not lost.\nIf a hybrid policyholder decides to cancel the policy after the surrender charge period (usually 10 years), they still get most of their money back. Of course, the insurance company lets you know that you won\u2019t make any return if you cancel your policy. But it\u2019s comforting to know that you can at least get a do-over if something comes up down the road and makes you change your mind. Secondly, there\u2019s a death benefit paid out to your beneficiaries after you die. It\u2019s another thing to know that in the event of your death, your kids will get the money you paid in premiums.\nAnother common benefit of Hybrid Policies over traditional policies is that benefits are guaranteed. If you pay the required premiums for about 10 years or less, your death benefit is contractually guaranteed. You\u2019ll also have a guaranteed amount of LTC coverage, and a guaranteed cash value. Traditional LTC insurance policies do not offer these guarantees. In fact, carriers can petition your state\u2019s insurance department to increase your premiums, sometimes up to 50% per year. This can be a problem, especially for some retirees who have limited assets.\nPremiums for hybrid policies have to be paid over shorter periods of time compared to traditional long-term-care plans. This essentially makes them unaffordable for some clients. You also tend to pay more with a hybrid plan than you would with a stand-alone long term care plan.\nHybrid or Traditional?\nThis is one of the most common questions LTC insurance agents have to address. Consumers are trying to weigh between the security and larger cost of a hybrid plan, versus the lesser cost and risk of losing money with a traditional plan. Hybrid policies make sense if you\u2019ve already concluded you\u2019re not happy with the \u2018use it or lose it\u2019 approach to a traditional policy and are able to afford the higher premiums. Of course, you have to look at the numbers before you make the buying decision. It also helps to compare between different types of insurance companies to see who\u2019s got what. At the end of the day, each policy should be judged on its own merit.\nIf you cannot stand the thought of paying over $50,000 in premiums and potentially losing every dime, you might be drawn to hybrid long term care insurance.",

Exercise improves the health of children. Even a moderate amount of exercise will improve certain aspect of a child\u2019s development including reading, arithmetic and their memory. Sports offer more to a child\u2019s physical well-being than just exercise. Specialists believe that sports are an important environment for children to learn.\nPlaying sports helps with a child self-esteem and worth. On the sports field is where they also establish peer status and acceptance. If given the chance children would rather enjoy a sports game than doing anything else. It has also been proven that most teen would rather excel in sports than in academics. Being good at spots is very important to children and because it is so important it is a strong asset socially. Sports is what young boys use to measure themselves against each other. Children who are good at sports are more likely to be accepted by their peers. They are the ones that are more likely to be team captains and future leaders. The kids that are the ones that develop the best social skills. It is important for teachers and parents to help kids find success in sports to boost self-esteem. There is a sport fit for every child and it only takes a minute to help find a sport that each child likes and can excel at.\nA child\u2019s psychosocial development gets enhanced when they align their interest with the activities, they engaged in. They learn a variety of skills and they also learn to properly express themselves. Sports are very important to the various aspects of development for children. It is important that parents these days get their children involved in sports. Because of the increase in technology in our society, there are so many devices available that will keep a child occupied inside the house. These devices include smart phones, smart devices, portable game consoles and game consoles. It is up to all the parents to ensure that their children spend some time out side playing the sports they like. It is not enough for them to play their favorite sport on a game console. They need to get out on the field and experience the game to its fullest.",

        "raw_content": "The last several decades of music history are full of classic songs that everyone must own. If you\u2019re 40 and over, here are some must-have songs you have to own.\nSure, the 1980s were a bit hit and miss when it comes to music (and everything else), but this one holds up.\nSure, we\u2019ve all heard it a thousand times, but there\u2019s a reason for that. It\u2019s still a great tune to this day.\nFrank Sinatra \u2013 Once Upon a Time\nThis Sinatra classic is perfect for anyone feeling a bit nostalgic about the old days.\nSure, we\u2019re not teenagers lusting after a friend\u2019s mom anymore, but we can all still enjoy the perfect pop-rock stylings of this song.\nTom Petty \u2013 Runnin\u2019 Down a Dream\nThis song will pump you full of energy, make you feel like hitting the open road, or both.\nMuse is a popular band by now, but if you haven\u2019t heard them, this is the perfect entry point.\nSure, we all know Michael\u2019s greatest hits. This one often gets overlooked and can always make you feel good.\nMayer\u2019s a fine blues guitarist, and there\u2019s a hint of that here. Besides that, anyone who lived through the 60s and 70s can identify with the sentiment.\nThose who are over 40 will understand this song in a brand new way, which only adds to its beauty.\nNot everyone has great memories of the 90s, but this song is an excellent ode to that special someone who moved on without you.\nAn equally great song for lamenting your love life or remembering how lucky you are to have found that somebody.\nTears for Fears \u2013 Head Over Heels\nEveryone loves \u201cShout,\u201d but this song about unrequited love is the band\u2019s true masterpiece.\nWe can all appreciate what David was singing about in this one, can\u2019t we?\nThree words: The Breakfast Club. One of the best uses of a song in a movie ever.\nNext \u2013 Too Close\nThis is as infectious as R&B club music got in the 90s. Plus, it\u2019s pretty original subject material, to boot.\nThis is as accessible as the band got. For a little extra energy, go for the live version from their excellent concert film.\nOne of their more accessible early songs, and a welcome departure from their slower sound that began with the black album.\nBob Seger \u2013 Like a Rock\nForget about the commercials. This song is all about remembering your younger days, and nothing tops the emotion of the guitar solo. One of the must-have songs for sure.\nWyclef Jean \u2013 Guantanamera\nMany people mourned the breakup of The Fugees, but Jean gave us an underrated classic of an album with an eclectic sound that hasn\u2019t been matched since.\nHarvest Moon, like all of Young\u2019s songs, has a real sense of emotional depth to it that will resonate with you.\nJ.Lo \u2013 I\u2019m Real (w/Ja Rule)\nJa Rule was only really tolerable in collaborations with female R&B singers, and this song is Exhibit A of that fact.\nNo playlist is complete without a little Elvis. For our money, this is one of the must-have songs as one of Elvis\u2019 best cuts.\nPrince\u2019s catalog is full of must-have songs, but Raspberry Beret is an often-overlooked classic.\nEmmylou Harris \u2013 C\u2019est La Vie\nThere are multiple versions of this song, but Harris\u2019 is probably the best rendition of them all.\nEagles \u2013 Tequila Sunrise\nThis song has a more wistful feel to it than a lot of their work and is perfect for reminiscing.\nThe Bangles \u2013 Hazy Shade of Winter\n\u201cWalk Like An Egyptian\u201d may have been gimmicky, but The Bangles\u2019 take on this song holds up after all these years.\nNo list of must-have songs is complete without a little classic rock. Cheap Trick really hit all the right notes with this chart-topper.\nChances are, you still know the words to this one. If not, your friends do, so throw it on and watch them excitedly recite them.\nIf you dig old school country, you\u2019ll love this cut. Even if you don\u2019t, you\u2019ll want to make an exception.\nYou may remember the live version of this song by Jodeci, but the Stevie original is one of the must-have songs you should own.\nThose who were born around the time of Vietnam or lived through it themselves will identify with this legendary song.\nIt\u2019s not exactly a deep cut, but this song is one that belongs in everyone\u2019s collection, fan or not.\nDionne Warwick \u2013 A House Is Not a Home\nWarwick belted out this song back in 1964, but it still hits home to this day.\nBlack Keys \u2013 Tighten Up\nThe Black Keys have done everything from the blues to guitar-driven rock. This is one of the must-have songs because it brings together both worlds.\nCline provides a surprisingly bluesy take during this Willie Nelson-penned hit.\nTry to listen to this infectious hit from the 80s without snapping your fingers or smiling. We dare you.\nJoni Mitchell \u2013 Little Green\nMitchell was always extremely honest in her songs, and this classic is certainly no exception.\nLike so many great songs from Nicks and her former band, Fleetwood Mac, this one was born from her tumultuous relationship with Lindsey Buckingham.\nThe fact that this song is enjoyed even by non-rockers and is a standard at wedding receptions elevates it past some of their other, harder rocking songs.\nThe Beach Boys are a much-beloved band by Baby Boomers, but even those who are a little younger will love the harmonies in this one.",

Since then, one out of every eight participants has come down with an outbreak of gastroenteritis, with common symptoms including diarrhea and vomiting.\nHealth officials believe the patients may have ingested mud during the race that was laced with some kind of bacteria. The mud run organizer confirmed on its website that it's working with health officials to test ground samples to determine the cause of the illness.\nAt least one runner was hospitalized as a result of the illness, but health officials say there are no serious or life-threatening cases.\nThis isn't the first time runners taking part in a mud run have gotten sick after the event.\nIn 2012, the CDC reported 22 runners got sick after a Tough Mudder race, the Washington Post reports. In that case, those runners had swallowed mud laced with cattle and pig feces, causing them to become infected with Campylobacter coli, a bacteria that can bring on a case of acute gastroenteritis.\nAnd earlier this year, a woman claimed she contracted a flesh-eating bacteria that caused her to go blind in one eye after participating in a mud run event in Dallas. \ufeff\n2015 MURDER suspect arrested and charged\nPomona Police Department Homicide Investigators identified George Hernandez, a 46 year old Pomona resident as the suspect of the June 24th murder of Daniel Albert Herrera.\nYesterday, The Los Angeles District Attorney's Office formally charged Hernandez with Herrera's murder.

On this day, which is also known as National Meteor Day, people across the country search the skies hoping to find meteors or \u201cshooting stars\u201d streaking across their view.\nDaily there are millions of meteors that occur in the Earth\u2019s atmosphere.\n\u201cA meteor or \u201cshooting star\u201d is the visible streak of light from a meteoroid or micro-meteoroid, heated and glowing from entering the Earth\u2019s atmosphere, as it sheds glowing material in its wake.\u201d (Wikipedia)\nThe majority of the meteoroids that cause meteors are only the size of a pebble.\nMeteors sometimes occur in showers.\nMeteors are usually observed at night and are visible when they are about 34 to 70 miles above the Earth and they usually disintegrated at about 31 to 51 miles above. Their glow time is normally about a second.\nA very small percent of meteoroids hit the Earth\u2019s atmosphere and then skip back into space.\nThe chemical composition and the speed of the meteoroid will cause different hues to the light. Possible colors and elements producing them include:\nOrange/yellow (sodium)\nYellow (iron)\nBlue/green (copper)\nPurple (potassium)\nRed (silicate)\nA list of meteor shower dates as well a a guide to successful watching can be found on the EarthSky website.\nNATIONAL METEOR WATCHING DAY HISTORY\nWithin our research, we were unable to find the creator and origin of National Meteor Watching Day, an \u201cunofficial\u201d National holiday.\nSocial Media Day \u2013 June 30\nSocial Media Day is observed annually on June 30th. In it\u2019s short life, social media has redefined how people interact, communicate and share with family, friends and the world.\nWith the launch of Friendster in 2002 and MySpace in 2003, social media had become mainstream. 2004 brought the founding of the king of social media, Facebook. Twitter brought social media to the traveling public with encouraging people to post under 140 characters with their smart phones.\nSocial media has made it possible to stay connected and informed about what is going in with those you care about. Re-connecting with classmates, past work associates and more is also an important part of social media.\nPost something on your favorite social media platform.

National broadcaster NHK said the man and a female passenger were dead.\nJapan's transport ministry and a fire official said the victims were in a state of \"cardiopulmonary arrest,\" the term used before official confirmation.\nThe passenger apparently poured oil over his head before setting himself on fire, said a transport ministry official, who spoke on condition of anonymity, citing department policy. Kyodo news service reported that he set himself on fire with a lighter.\nThe train stopped when a passenger pressed an emergency button after finding one of the two victims collapsed on the floor near a restroom in the first car, he said. The other victim was found collapsed in an area between the first and second cars.\nThe train, which was travelling from Tokyo to Osaka, remained stopped on the tracks outside of Odawara city for about three hours. Bullet train service between Tokyo and Osaka was suspended.\nAt least nine others were injured, one seriously, mostly from smoke inhalation, Odawara Fire Department official Ikutaro Torii said.\nSurveillance video catches Los Angeles burglars stealing mail, ransacking cars\nVentura County dog found severely neglected with collar deep in neck\nThe world has multiplied and changed drastically in their lifetimes.

The organization tracks and maintains a database of the world's longest-living people. Morano, of Verbania, Italy, is just a few months younger than Jones and is Europe's oldest person, according to the group. The group knows of no others born in the 1800s.\nAnna Morano\nMorano has lived on her own ever since she left her husband in 1938 because he beat her. Now 115, she resides in a neat one-room apartment in Verbania, a mountain town overlooking Lake Major in northwest Italy. She is cared for by her village: The mayor gave her a TV set, her niece stops in twice a day and her adoring physician of more than 25 years checks up on her regularly.\nMorano attributes her longevity to her unusual diet: Three raw eggs a day (now two raw eggs and 150 grams of raw steak after a bout of anemia) - a diet she's been on for decades after a sickly childhood.\n\"My father brought me to the doctor, and when he saw me he said, 'Such a beautiful girl. If you had come just two days later, I would have not been able to save you.' He told me to eat two or three eggs a day, so I eat two eggs a day.\"\nHer physician today, Dr. Carlo Bava, is convinced there's a genetic component as well.\n\"From a strictly medical and scientific point of view, she can be considered a phenomenon,\" he said, noting that Morano takes no medication and has been in stable, good health for years.\nItaly is known for its centenarians - many of whom live in Sardinia - and gerontologists at the University of Milan are studying Morano, along with a handful of Italians over age 105, to try to figure out why they live so long.\n\"Emma seems to go against everything that could be considered the guidelines for correct nutrition: She has always eaten what she wants, with a diet that is absolutely repetitive,\" Bava said. \"For years, she has eaten the same thing every day, not much vegetables or fruit. But she's gotten this far.\"\nMorano's sister, whom Bava cared for as well, died at 97. On a recent visit, Morano was in feisty spirits, displaying the sharp wit and fine voice that used to stop men in their tracks.\n\"I sang in my house, and people on the road stopped to hear me singing. And then they had to run because they were late and should go to work,\" she recalled, before breaking into a round of the 1930s Italian love song \"Parlami d'amore Mariu.\"\n\"Ahh, I don't have my voice anymore,\" she lamented at the end.\nBava also credits Morano's longevity to her outlook: She is positive - \"She never says, 'I've had enough,'\" he said - but stubborn. He recalled that when she needed blood transfusions a few years ago, she refused to go to the hospital. When he warned her that she would die without them, \"Her response was 'That means my time has come. If you want, care for me at home; otherwise, I'll die.'\"\nAnd even though her movements now are limited - she gets out of bed and into her armchair and back again, her eyesight is bad and hearing weak - she does seem to sneak around at night.\n\"Her niece and I leave some biscuits and chocolates out at night in the kitchen. And in the morning they're gone, which means someone has gotten up during the night and eaten them,\" he said.\nNow 115 years old, Jones spends her days in her one-bedroom apartment in a public housing facility for seniors in Brooklyn, where she has lived for more than three decades.\nShe sticks to a strict daily routine: Every morning she wakes up around 9 a.m., takes a bath and then eats several slices of bacon, scrambled eggs and grits. On a recent day, Jones said little, but family members said she spends her days reflecting on her life and embracing what's left of it - one day at a time. Her living room walls are adorned with family photos and birthday cards made by children in the community.\n\"Hey, Tee,\" Jones' niece, Lois Judge, said to her aunt using a family nickname, \"How old are you?\"\n\"I don't know,\" the frail Jones responded.\nJones, who wears a yellow turban on her head and a nightgown most days, watches the world from a small recliner. Posters from past birthday parties, letters from local elected officials and a note from President Barack Obama fill the surfaces. A sign in the kitchen reads: \"Bacon makes everything better.\"\nShe was born in a small farm town near Montgomery, Alabama. She was one of 11 siblings and attended a special school for young black girls. When she graduated from high school in 1922, Jones worked full time helping family members pick crops. She left after a year to begin working as a nanny, heading north to New Jersey and eventually making her way to New York.\n\"She adored kids,\" Judge said of her aunt, though Jones never had any children of her own and was married for only a few years. Family members say there is no medical reason for her long life, crediting it to her love of family and generosity to others. Judge said she also believes her aunt's longevity is thanks to growing up on a rural farm where she ate fresh fruits and vegetables that she picked herself.\nAfter she moved to New York, Jones worked with a group of her fellow high school graduates to start a scholarship fund for young African-American women to go to college. She was also active in her public housing building's tenant patrol until she was 106.\nDespite her age, she only sees a doctor once every four months and takes medication for high blood pressure and a multivitamin every day. Aside from that, she has had a clean bill of health for years, Judge said. Jones is blind after glaucoma claimed her eyesight 15 years ago and is also hard of hearing.\nShe will turn 116 next week. Family members plan to throw her a party\nFireworks legal in Anaheim for first time in 30 years\nObama says proposal will make 5 million more eligible for OT\nSalaried workers who earn nearly $1,000 per week would become eligible for overtime pay under a proposal President Barack Obama unveiled Monday, lamenting that too many Americans are working too many hours for less pay than they deserve.\nThe long-awaited overtime rule from the Labor Department would more than double the threshold at which employers can avoid paying overtime, from the current $455 a week to $970 a week by next year. That would mean salaried employees earning less than $50,440 a year would be assured overtime if they work more than 40 hours per week, up from the current $23,660 a year.\n\"We've got to keep making sure hard work is rewarded,\" Obama wrote in an op-ed in The Huffington Post. \"That's how America should do business. In this country, a hard day's work deserves a fair day's pay.\"\nTo keep up with future inflation and wage growth, the proposal will peg the salary threshold at the 40th percentile of income, individuals familiar with the plan said. They requested anonymity to discuss the proposal ahead of the official announcement.\nThe president was to promote the proposal during a visit Thursday to La Crosse, Wisconsin.\nObama's proposal aims to narrow a loophole that the president has long said some employers exploit to avoid paying overtime.\nEmployees who make above the salary threshold can be denied overtime if they are deemed managers. Some work grueling schedules at fast food chains and retail stores, but with no overtime eligibility, their pay may be lower per hour than many workers they supervise.\nThe existing salary cap, established in 2004 under President George W. Bush, has been eroded by inflation and now relegates a family of four making just above the cap into poverty territory. Obama has long charged that the level is too low and undercuts the intent of the overtime law.\nThe proposed changes will be open for public comment and could take months to finalize. They can be enacted through regulation, without approval by the Republican-led Congress.\nAlthough the Labor Department's estimates suggest the proposal would raise wages for 5 million people, other estimates are far higher. The Economic Policy Institute, a liberal think tank, recently estimated that a threshold of $984 a week would cover 15 million people.\n\"This is by definition middle-class people. This reverses decades of neglect,\" said EPI President Larry Mishel, adding that the proposal would also likely create jobs for hourly workers.\nUnder the current threshold, only about 8 percent of salaried workers are eligible for 1 times their regular pay when they work overtime. The EPI estimates that doubling the salary level would make up to 40 percent of salaried workers eligible.\nYet many Republicans have opposed Obama's plans to increase the threshold, arguing that doing so would discourage companies from creating jobs and dampen economic growth. Sen. Lamar Alexander of Tennessee, who chairs the Senate's labor panel, has derided the idea as designed \"to make it as unappealing as possible\" for companies to create jobs.\nObama, in his op-ed, argued the exemption was intended for highly paid, white-collar employees but now punished lower-income workers because the government has failed to update the regulations. He said the proposal would be good not only for workers but also for employers that pay their employees what they deserve, because they will no longer be undercut by competitors who pay their workers less.\n\"Will we accept an economy where only a few of us do exceptionally well? Or will we push for an economy where every American who works hard can contribute to and benefit from our success?\" Obama said, setting up a populist argument that Democrats are likely to embrace in the run-up to the 2016 presidential election.\nThe beneficiaries would be people like Brittany Swa, 30, a former manager of a Chipotle restaurant in Denver. As a management trainee, she started as an entry-level crew member in March 2010. After several months she began working as an \"apprentice,\" which required a minimum 50-hour work week.\nYet her duties changed little. She had a key to the shop and could make bank deposits, but otherwise spent nearly all her time preparing orders and working the cash register. She frequently worked 60 hours a week but didn't get overtime because she earned $36,000.\nThe grueling hours continued after she was promoted to store manager in October 2010. She left two years later and has joined a class-action lawsuit against Chipotle, charging that apprentices shouldn't be classified as managers exempt from overtime. A spokesman for Chipotle declined to comment on the case.\nLong-term care insurance can be axed with just one missed payment\nMunich and the Foothills of the Alps\nFinding California truffles becoming a job for the dogs\nSanta Rosa Island - Channel Islands National Park - May 2014\nWhy Your Smartphone Will Radically Change Healthcare\nDry lightning raises fears in Lake Fire burn area\nElderly couple found murdered in Glendale home\nConstruction of The Twin Towers, 1970 \ufeff\nEcho Park church damaged in suspicious fire; arson investigation underway\nVIDEO: Sheriff's deputy saves suicidal inmate from jumping at Los Angeles jail\nJack Carter, brash comic, dies at 93\nJack Carter, whose brash, caustic comedy made him a star in early television and helped him sustain a career of more than a half-century in TV, nightclubs, movies and on stage, died of respiratory failure at his Beverly Hills, California, home, a family spokesman said.\nCarter turned 93 just four days before he died Sunday, Jeff Sanderson said.\nIn 1948, when network television was beginning, Carter starred in a series of variety shows on ABC. In 1950, Pat Weaver, the visionary NBC programmer who fostered the \"Today\" and \"Tonight\" shows and other innovations, scheduled two hours of programming called \"Saturday Night Revue.\"\n\"The Jack Carter Show,\" broadcast from Chicago, filled the first hour, and the comedian opened it with a standup routine that poked fun at the day's news, a device late-night comics still use. From there, the show moved on to music and comedy skits.\nThe second hour was taken up by \"Your Show of Shows,\" starring Sid Caesar and Imogene Coca. Their sophisticated comedy became a sensation, and after \"Saturday Night Revue's\" first season, \"The Jack Carter Show\" was canceled. Although he would remain a popular guest star in television, Carter would never again headline his own network series.\n\"Maybe I come on too strong,\" he mused in 1963. \"Directors and producers fear you when you come on strong. They're afraid they may not be able to control you.\"\nThe comedian, who had begun his career as a dramatic stage actor, also returned to the theater from time to time. He also performed regularly in nightclubs and appeared in films.\nHe made nearly three dozen movies, including Elvis Presley's \"Viva Las Vegas,\" in which Carter played himself; \"The Horizontal Lieutenant\"; \"The Extraordinary Seaman\"; and \"The Funny Farm.\"\nThroughout his career, Carter remained the attacker, poking fun at members of the audience, disparaging politicians and celebrities.\n\"I'm one of the last entertainers who really works when he's on,\" he claimed in that 1963 interview. \"I work to win the audience. I see these other guys, and they just recite. The less you do, the less you offend, of course, and that's what they want on TV.\"\nCarter made numerous appearances on the shows of Ed Sullivan, Alan King and George Burns. He traded gags with Bob Hope on five Hope specials.\n\"The censors flagged you on everything,\" Carter recalled in the book \"The Box: An Oral History of Television, 1920-1961.\" ''When you did Sullivan, you couldn't say bellybutton.\"\nAn adept ad-libber, he also became a regular visitor to the late-night talk shows.\nHe turned from comedy to drama in dozens of episodic series including \"Dr. Kildare,\" ''Alfred Hitchcock Presents,\" ''Hawaii Five-O,\" ''Murder, She Wrote,\" ''Baywatch,\" ''Diagnosis Murder\" and \"Touched by an Angel.\"\nHis work as a director included Lucille Ball's CBS series \"Here's Lucy\" and plays, including \"A Thousand Clowns,\" ''Silver Anniversary\" and \"Mouth-Trap.\"\nBetween TV work, Carter was active in theater. In 1956, he starred on Broadway with Sammy Davis Jr. in the musical \"Mr. Wonderful.\" He toured in \"Guys and Dolls,\" ''Born Yesterday,\" ''A Thousand Clowns,\" ''The Odd Couple\" and \"Oliver\" (as Fagin).\nJack Chakrin was born in New York City in 1922. He joined a stock company after high school, hoping to become a dramatic actor, but his talent at amusing his fellow performers turned him toward comedy.\nDrafted during World War II, he toured with the cast of Irving Berlin's show, \"This Is the Army,\" and with other entertainment companies. Back in civilian life in 1947, he made his Broadway debut in \"Call Me Mister,\" a musical about soldiers returning from war.\nAfter a failed first marriage, Carter married actress Paula Stewart (the ex-wife of Burt Bacharach) in 1960, and they had a son, Michael. The marriage ended in 1970, and in 1992 he remarried his first wife, Roxanne.\nSurvivors include his wife, Roxanne; two sons, Michael Carter and Chase Carter; a daughter, Wendy Carter; and grandchildren Jake and Ava.\nWhat's open and what's closed on the 4th\nBanks: Most banks and financial markets will be closed.\nGovernment: City, county, federal and state (including the Department of Motor Vehicles) offices, libraries and superior courts will be closed.\nMail: The U.S. Postal Service will not deliver mail. www.usps.com\nTransit: Buses and subway services in Inland Empire will run on a holiday schedule.

Mississippi and West Virginia are the only two states with such strict requirements in place.\nDemocratic Gov. Jerry Brown has not said if he would sign it.\n\"The governor believes that vaccinations are profoundly important and a major public health benefit, and any bill that reaches his desk will be closely considered,\" governor's spokesman Evan Westrup has repeated in recent days.\nDemocratic Sens. Richard Pan of Sacramento and Ben Allen of Santa Monica introduced the measure after an outbreak of measles at Disneyland in December infected over 100 people in the U.S. and Mexico.\nIf the bill becomes law, medical exemptions would still be granted to children with serious health issues.\nChildren whose parents refuse vaccination can try to obtain a medical exemption or be homeschooled. Otherwise, school-age children who currently claim a personal belief exemption will need to get fully vaccinated by kindergarten and seventh grade, the state's two vaccine checkpoints.\nThe measure has prompted the most heated legislative debate of the year with thousands of parents taking to social media and flooding the Capitol in recent weeks to oppose the bill at legislative hearings. They and some lawmakers say that the state is eliminating informed consent and trampling on parental rights.\nDespite the opposition, the bill passed the Senate and the Assembly with bipartisan support, although not a two-thirds threshold that would be needed to override a veto.\nThe Senate on Monday voted on changes made to the bill in the Assembly that make it easier to obtain medical exemptions. The amendment would allow doctors to use a family's medical history as an evaluating factor.\nThe bill authors also agreed to establish a grandfather clause, allowing students who currently claim a personal belief exemption to maintain it until their next vaccine checkpoint.",

        "raw_content": "My newest illustration assignment for Never Ending Radical Dude's movie review of The Revenant.\nLabels: Illustrations, Kitty Rouge illustrations\nALL HAIL MACBETH!\nSpent two evenings doing this piece while anticipating what seems like a breathtaking movie adaptation of the Shakespeare play. Also, I drew Fassbender while eating a tub of Half Baked Ben & Jerry's. What more does a girl need?\nI've been on hiatus from illustrating for a little while (thanks to being a first-time home buyer and ample freelance work!) and got back on the drawing horse to do Never Ending Radical Dude's movie review illustration of Pixar/Disney's latest Inside Out.\nIt was my first time creating an illustration for an animated movie. While the illustration came out pretty good, under the little time frame I had to create, I was slightly disappointed with my concept and that it looked more like a promo image than an illustration, without a style that's a bit more of my own. But I come out with a new challenge I'll be willing to tackle in the future. Besides that, the balance (and explosion!) of colours has me feeling happy regardless.\nThis was the opening weekend for Inside Out, has anyone seen it yet? Any thoughts?\nLabels: Illustrations, Kitty Rouge, Kitty Rouge illustrations, Movie Review\nFor my second assignment with Never Ending Radical Dude was to create an illustration for the movie review of Chappie, the new Neill Blomkamp film. I have yet to see (although I desperately wanted a sneak a peek at it before creating the illustration) As a relatively new fan of the band Die Antwoord, I can't wait to hear the full soundtrack and couldn't wait to sketch them and had my imagination running super wild with possibilities.\nThis isn't what I had initially planned for my Chappie illustration. In fact, I had something quite elaborate in the making. But a new life project has blown me off track (shrinking my schedule overnight) and I simply couldn't achieve my first idea within the deadline. So I went in an entirely different direction that would allow me to create it within less than 24 hours. Not quite what I had envisioned (with Die Antwoord as part of my subject, I was sad that I wasn't able to go as overboard as I'd liked). But it allowed me to go back to simple sketching, which is something I always love to do.\nLabels: Kitty Rouge, Kitty Rouge illustrations, Movie Review\nI'd heard of the movie The Voices about a year ago when it was submitted for Sundance. The premise of the film had me intrigued and anxious to delve into it, even though I didn't seek it out until much later. I've got to admit, I'd completely forgotten about it; having not heard any news of it until it was recently brought up on Slash Film podcast. I adored it despite horror cult genre not particularly being my thing (dark comedy on the other hand...). It was a movie which surprised me and in my opinion, became one of Ryan Reynolds' best acting gig to date. I decided to create a little illustration for it depicting his beloved house pets and the twisted yet comical storing of his decapitated victim.\nA couple of weeks ago, director Billie Mintz got in touch with me to design a poster for his latest documentary called Jesus Town, USA. It's a quirky little movie I've whole-heartedly enjoyed with a cast you can't help but fall in love with (particularly the loveable 'new' Jesus, Zack Little).\nIt was important to us while creating this poster that it evoked an eccentric yet respectable feel. We didn't want it to fall into a clownish territory, where it looked like we were poking fun at Christianity, the Passion Play or the community involved but rather a fun, comical approach to a town's long-time tradition that brings them, and visitors, much joy. I believe Billie & I were able to put together this whimsical aspect quite nicely, just in time for his first festival entry. And it's definitely a plus that the cast seemed to respond very well to it.\nIt's been a thrill working with him and I can't wait to see the success of his hard work upon entering festival season.\nFor more information about the movie and for the trailer, click on this link.\nKingsman : The Secret Service is not a movie I would habitually rush to illustrate. But I'm super happy I went along with this wonderful challenge (plus I got to sketch Colin Firth. Win!). It was my first assignment as contributing artist for Never Ending Radical Dude. Now that I've finished this illustration by its opening weekend, I'm thinking I'm going to go watch this part Kick Ass part James Bond movie!\nLabels: Illustrations, Movie Review",

BASKETBALL\u2019\nGOLDEN VOICE: CHRIS LOWRY SAYS BREAK-UPS ARE HARD \u2192\nBRITTANY NEELEY IS KOKOMO KIWANIS GIRLS BASKETBALL MVP; ERIN KESLER EARNS SCHOLARSHIP\nEastern\u2019s Brittany Neeley, head coach Jeremy Dexter and Bethany Neeley hold the twins honors from the Kiwanis Club of Kokomo. (SJ Photo: William Gibson)\nKOKOMO, Ind. \u2013 The Kiwanis Club of Kokomo hosted its 30th Annual Girls Basketball Banquet at Kokomo High School \u2013 and to no surprise, the Neeley twins of the IHSAA Class 2A state runners-up Eastern Lady Comets dominated the awards presentations.\nBilled as the largest high school girls basketball banquet in the Hoosier state, the Kiwanis welcomed home former Kokomo High School and Murray State standout guard Ashley Hayes as the keynote speaker. Hayes offered the girls sound advice on working hard, achieving success at whatever one does and always strive to set one self apart from the rest.\n\u201cEveryone is replaceable; make yourself unforgettable,\u201d said Hayes. \u201cThat was first told to me by a coach at Murray State. A coach told me that there was a million Ashley Hayes\u2019 out there. I was taken aback by that, but I realized I needed to set myself apart and make my own mark. I had to make myself different and make them not forget me.\nHayes is currently an assistant women\u2019s coach at Butler University. With her current coaching assignment, the former Lady Kat noted she has played/coached in three of the most historic gymnasiums in the United States \u2013 Kokomo\u2019s Memorial Gym, the New Castle Fieldhouse and Butler\u2019s Hinkle Fieldhouse. She also played in the 2003 IHSAA Class 4A girls basketball state championship game in Bankers Life Fieldhouse, then called Conseco Fieldhouse.\nHayes is best known locally as a key member of the 2003 Lady Kats state champions \u2013 a team that rolled through the season and finished 26-0 as the only undefeated basketball team in 110 years of Kokomo basketball. Hayes was second team all-state and a McDonald\u2019s All-American nominee. She is also currently ranked No. 21 on Howard County\u2019s 1,000 Point Club with 1,126 points.\n\u201cSome of my first memories of basketball come from playing at Carver Center,\u201d recalled Hayes. \u201cOne thing I learned about playing with the boys was if you wanted the ball, you had to go get the ball. But it really helped to develop me, so I credit a lot of my good play to that.\u201d\nThe Kiwanis Club of Kokomo established this banquet in 1984 to formally recognize the athletic and academic accomplishments of local area girls\u2019 basketball teams. The following ten high schools were included in the banquet: Kokomo, Western, Northwestern, Taylor, Eastern, Tri-Central, Lewis Cass, Maconaquah, Carroll and Tipton.\n\u201cThis is a great event for the young women of our area,\u201d said Kiwanis Club of Kokomo President Dean Hockney. \u201cThe boys basketball programs have many award opportunities and they garner the most press, including a statewide Final Four Banquet sponsored by the Indianapolis Kiwanis Club. So it is nice that we take the time to recognize the hard work and sacrifice these 150 female student-athletes and their coaching staffs have put forth.\u201d\nThis year, Brittany and Bethany Neeley garnered five of the six on-court awards the Kiwanis Club dishes out. Brittany was named the Kiwanis Most Valuable Player, as well as assists leader (5.2 assists per game) and scoring leader (17.2 points per game). Bethany won the rebound leader (11.6 rebounds per game) and steals leader (6.3 steals per game) awards. Tri-Central\u2019s Shelby Ramsey won the free throw shooting award (76-percent), edging out Bethany Neeley by less than a half of a percent.\nThe Tipton Lady Blue Devils earned the award for highest team grade point average, posting an impressive 3.56 GPA to defend its crown from a year ago.\nThe top award of the evening was a $500 scholarship from the Kiwanis Club of Kokomo Foundation to the senior player with the highest grade point average. This year\u2019s scholarship was awarded to Erin Kesler from Northwestern High School.\nFor more information on the Kiwanis Club of Kokomo, visit www.kokomnoonkiwanis.com",

        "raw_content": "Posted by Martin Ackerman | Jul 8, 2016 | History, Nature, Research, Science & Tech | 0 |\nResearchers have discovered that dinosaurs could develop facial tumors.\nDinosaurs, it turns out, could get facial tumors. Previously, non-cancerous facial tumors had only been found in humans, other mammals, and some modern reptiles. But a hadrosaur, a type of duck-billed dinosaur, was discovered in Romania about a decade ago with a deformity on its jaw. Paleontologists knew there was something special about it, but it wasn\u2019t until recently that they were able to figure out what was going on\u2013thanks to a Micro-CT machine in Switzerland.\nThe dinosaur, which was an adolescent when it died, had an ameloblastoma, a sort of benign growth that occurs on the bottom jaw. They can be found on some modern animals, which means that humans and dinosaurs (at least some of them) have more in common than previously thought. Diseases can vary widely from species to species, and it\u2019s rare that one might impact, say, humans and iguanas, but it does happen in rare instance such as this.\nPaleopathology is the study of ancient (prehistoric, really) disease and injury, and scientists in this field can learn a lot about a creature by the kinds of problems it had and when those problems are recorded in the fossil record. Generally, only things that impact a creature\u2019s bones, such as breakages or this tumor, survive the process of fossilization. It\u2019s hard to know if an animal had lung cancer, for example, without any lungs preserved.\nWhat will this discovery tell us about dinosaurs, or ourselves? We\u2019ll have to wait and see. Scientists have to study something like this extensively before they can really figure out how such discoveries will change what we know about the world. It\u2019s safe to say, though, that we should be able to learn more about dinosaurs, and more about ameloblastoma going forward.\nEarliest Sea Turtle Fossil 120 Millions Years Old\nNew Species of Galapagos Tortoise Named\nPreviousHow Do You Make a Company Culture That Works?\nNextTrump Supporters May Be Racist, But They Aren\u2019t Alone",

        "title": "Bjp's New Kerala Headquarters Has A Room For A Future Chief Minister - Banking & Financial Services - Shine.com",
        "raw_content": "BJP's new Kerala headquarters has a room for a future chief minister\nBengaluru, June 15 -- Call it commitment or the height of ambition. The upcoming Kerala headquarters of Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) reportedly has a room for a future chief minister from the party. Nothing surprising there, except that in the 140-seat assembly, the party currently has just one seat. O. Rajagopal is a BJP MLA from the Nemom constituency. Reflecting the party's ambition to form the government in the state some day, it has allocated an office in the new building under construction for a future CM, regional newspaper Malayala Manorama reported on Wednesday. State BJP leader K. Surendran confirmed the news to Mint. \"We are sure of making the government in Kerala one day. The first floor in the new headquarters will have a room for state president and legislative party leader. The room for the legislative party leader will be for the future CM,\" Surendran said over the phone. Political parties typically set aside a room for their legislative party leader at their headquarters. But they usually have more numbers than the BJP in Kerala. The party's state president Kummanam Rajasekharan could not be reached on phone for an immediate comment. Kerala is crucial for BJP in its efforts to become a truly national party. It is one of the few states where the BJP has never won a parliamentary seat. It had not won an assembly seat either until the last election in 2016, where it won exactly one seat. However, it managed to secure a vote share of 16% in the assembly elections, its highest so far. Revamping the simple state headquarters in capital city Thiruvananthapuram to a seven-storey structure is part of the efforts to show that growth, as per the BJP. BJP president Amit Shah attended the foundation stone laying ceremony of the new headquarters last week, and asked the state unit to focus more on winning seats than obsessing over vote share. He advised the state leadership to win the hearts and votes of minorities by the 2019 general election, a hard task considering the their decades-long support to the two major fronts led by the ruling communists and opposition Congress, Mint reported on 4 June.

        "raw_content": "Will was very nervous going to see the Headmaster. Liam had been vague about why he wanted to meet with him. Thinking about his nervousness, Will found it strange that the last time he'd gone to see him, facing possible expulsion for fighting in the dining hall, he hadn't felt nearly this nervous. The fact his whole attention at that time had been focused on protecting Liam never occurred to him.\nAfter he was seated in the Headmaster's study and they had chatted over tea, something the scholar hoped would soften the fears of the boy sitting in his presence, the Headmaster began speaking to him in a kindly fashion, a fashion long practised to bring a boy enough comfort so he could speak freely. The Headmaster found Will pleasant enough, and after speaking with him a while felt he'd loosened up a bit, but there was obviously a reticence in the boy still.\nSo he spoke, they chatted, and he found all his attempts to get Will to open up to him were failing. Even trying to get closer to him by using the boy's first name hadn't broken through.\nThe Headmaster knew when he was not going to make much headway with a boy. He had reached that point now with Will. Rather than throw up his hands in defeat, however, he ploughed ahead, trying new approaches. When it began to look hopeless, he decided open honesty might be the best method with this boy.\n\"Will, Liam was here to see me today. He is very concerned about you. After talking to you now, I can see why. I've known many boys in my time here. I've learned to read them when they talk to me. I read their words, their body language, their eyes, their nervousness. What I read from you is that you're a friendly, polite, very nice boy who doesn't want to talk to me. But I don't get the impression you're afraid of me. So I don't think it's just me you won't talk to. You won't talk to anyone, will you?\"\n\"No, sir, and I'm sorry if I'm being rude.\"\n\"Oh, no, Will, you're not being rude. What I'd say you're being is self-protective. And you're a very different boy from the one who was here almost a month ago. That boy wasn't a bit private. That boy stood up for his friend. He did his utmost to see no harm would come to him. You were free and totally engaged towards that end. You're not nearly that free with what you say now.\n\"I also heard all about what occurred with you and Liam, when you first met. It sounded to me like you were totally engaged with saving him, too, and then in saving him in the dining hall. Do you know what I'm feeling from this, Will?\"\n\"Well, what I'm feeling is that when we're talking about Will Tanner, you close down. You pull down the blinds, fasten up the shutters, lock the doors and don't let anyone in. But, when it comes to Liam, you forget about yourself and concentrate on him. And when that happens, you come alive. No more hiding, no more holding back. Your whole personality changes. Think about that for a moment. Do you agree with that, or am I wrong?\"\nWill was suddenly feeling nervous. Not with the Headmaster himself, but with where the conversation seemed to be heading. But he had to answer the question.\n\"I agree, sir. In fact, I hadn't thought of it that way, but as I do now, it explains something to me. Something I've wondered about. You see, before I met Liam, I was always sort of thinking about many things all at once, if I thought about anything, but never about myself, certainly not at all deeply. I rather didn't let myself think about personal things too much. Never about other boys, either. But, for some reason, I wanted to know more about Liam, which seemed very weird to me, but I sort of couldn't help myself with him. I followed him, and when I saw what he was about to do at the bridge, suddenly for the first time in a very long time I was completely focusing on him. Only him. And I think, now that you've said what you have, that that's why I suddenly felt so free. When I was helping him, saving him, I was outside myself, and it felt so good. It was like I'd come out from a cage I'd been in, and that I was suddenly fully awake, and that before I'd been only partly awake.\"\n\"That's what I was thinking too, Will. And as far as I can tell, when you're with Liam, you are awake. Especially if you're helping him. But Will, what we need to do, what you need to do, is allow yourself to figure out why, when you're thinking about yourself, you stop yourself from doing that. Why do you hide from yourself? Can we talk about that? I said a moment ago you were being self-protective. That's exactly what's happening and to get to the bottom of it, you have to talk to me. About yourself.\"\n\"I don't like to do that, sir. I never even think about myself if I can help it. There's nothing much to talk about anyway.\"\n\"Tell me, Will, what do you think of yourself? Are you proud of yourself, of who you are?\"\n\"Oh, no sir. I'm really nothing. I don't know why Liam wants to be my friend, unless he's just feeling sorry for me and because I saved him. He's got lots of friends now, and I was thinking of telling him he should choose another roommate for next term. He shouldn't be stuck with me.\"\nThe Headmaster paused, then turned to the window and looked out over the school grounds. His house was situated such that from his study he could see the expanse of lawn, the school classroom buildings and then the houses, laid out picturesquely with the playing fields just able to be glimpsed behind. Off to one side of it all, the broad valley began its gentle fall down to the river. He stared for a few minutes, then turned back to Will.\n\"Will, can you tell me about home?\" He asked the question softly, and tried to put as much empathy into the question as possible.\nWill visibly stiffened. He was silent, but as it became apparent the Headmaster was waiting for him to talk and wasn't going to relieve the tension himself, Will finally said, \"I don't like to do that, sir.\"\n\"I think you need to, Will. I now know why Liam came to see me. He's hurting for you, Will. He wants to see you happy, and he knows you well enough to see the pain inside you. Now that we've spent some time together, I see it too, and unlike Liam, who has no experience with these things, I believe I know where the pain comes from. I also know it'll help you a lot more if you tell me than if I guess. You need to do this, whether you want to or not. You showed me a great deal of courage when you were in the dining hall, fighting for your friend. You showed it again in this room before, again trying to save him. Will you show me the same courage now, saving yourself? It'll take more courage than any you've showed me before, but I think you can do it. Please, Will?\"\nWill was silent, and then, after a moment tears began spilling from his eyes. He lowered his head and was the very picture of misery. The Headmaster came to him, crouched by him and pulled Will's head to his chest. He put his arms around him and held him as he wept.\nIt took quite some time, but finally, when he could speak again, Will lifted his head and asked in a shaky voice, \"You know, sir?\"\n\"I can make a fairly good guess. But I want you to tell me. Catharsis comes from you speaking, not from me guessing.\"\n\"What does, sir?\"\nThe Headmaster chuckled, though the sound was sad. \"Catharsis. The relieving of all the pressure and guilt and blame and suffering you've been living with for so long. Telling me about it will make you feel better. It will make you realize how strong you are, and you need to prove to yourself you are that strong. Believe me, Will, you can't say anything I haven't heard before, from one boy or another, over the years. I need to hear it from you. But more to the point, you need to say it. Then we'll talk about it. And when you leave here today, you'll feel better.\"\n\"But sir, some of this is, well, hard to speak to an adult about. It's personal,and it involves sex.\"\n\"Yes, I know. But Will, you need to talk about it, in as much detail as you can, because it's the holding it in that is hurting you so much. I know is embarrassing. It's getting over the embarrassment, that's part of this. It's realizing you're human, other people have been where you've been, and what you have to say isn't going to kill you. Will, I've had this conversation with other boys. They've told me things they never thought they could say to anyone. And when they were done, they felt better. They continued to go to school here, and they got over it.\n\"Furthermore, I was a boy once myself. And I had a son. I know the things boys do. Very rarely are they horrible. They're the things boys do. I did them too. Maybe not all the things you've been through, but things like them, probably. It's part of growing up. So I'm not going to be shocked. And you're going to feel better. But it does take courage. Do you have that much, Will?\"",

        "raw_content": "For the second time in the day I was woken by the sound of knocking on the bedroom door. I untangled myself from Troy and the sheet and clambered out of bed. As I was walking still only half awake to open it, I realized that I was naked.\n\"Who is it?\" I called.\n\"It's Alicia, Adam. Can I come in?\"\n\"Err\u2026..\"\nI heard a laugh. \"Okay, you're naked. Unlock the door and I'll give you ten seconds to get back in bed or whatever before I come in.\"\nI turned the lock and then scooted back to get under the sheet. My getting out and back into bed had wakened Troy who had rolled onto his back and was rubbing sleep from his eyes.\n\"Whassup?\" he whispered.\n\"Your mom wants to come in and talk.\"\n\"This is becoming a habit \u2013 a bad habit,\" he grumbled as he adjusted the sheet and moved to pull me to him. I felt his dick slip between my legs as I turned my back to him.\n\"Mmmm, that's nice,\" he whispered in my ear.\nSimultaneously I felt myself start to go hard and heard the bedroom door open as Mrs C came into the room.\nShe looked at us with a smile around her lips.\n\"Do you two feel like getting up and coming downstairs for something to eat?\"\n\"Not really hungry, Mom - doesn't seem that long since we ate.\"\n\"That's a shame because if you don't come down not only will you miss out on your father cooking his famous rib eye steaks, but you'll also not be around to hear Mr Richards bring us up to date with developments.\"\n\"Why didn't you say so? I think I can manage one of Pa's steaks as they more or less melt in your mouth, but I'm not gonna miss what Mr Richards has to say. Didn't he tell you anything when he phoned? I assume he must have called?\"\n\"He did call, but said he'd prefer to talk to us all in person rather than just tell your father and have him tell the rest of us. That was when your father invited him over to join us for a steak.\"\n\"Okay, makes sense I guess. When's he due?\"\nMrs C looked at her watch. \"He should be here in about twenty minutes or so. That should give the pair of you time to make yourselves not only decent, but also respectable.\"\n\"Yes Ma'am!\" said Troy showing off his still slightly lopsided grin.\nShe grinned in return before leaving the room and closing the door behind her.\n\"Come on Troy, we need to have another shower.\"\n\"Jeeze, Adam \u2013 you're beginning to sound like my mom.\"\nBut he followed me into the bathroom where we showered together, but this time without doing anything other than clean ourselves up. After drying ourselves I helped Troy get into the clothes he'd worn earlier, minus the hoodie. I slipped into the pair of white CKs I'd been wearing earlier, but only for the quick dash to my bedroom, taking my other clothes with me. I'd been wearing the new blue skinnies the Connelly's had bought for me yesterday, but I decided this was an occasion to wear my grey ones which I considered now to be my best ones. They went on over a pair of red American Eagle boxer briefs and I finished off with a darker grey polo that had a red pattern. Once I felt properly dressed I went back to Troy's room before going downstairs together.\nWe found Mr C out in the yard getting the grill going.\n\"Is this gonna be good news Mr C?\" I asked.\n\"Marvin wouldn't say, but I got the impression it was. Besides which I don't think he'd have had the nerve to accept my invitation to stay for dinner if it wasn't \u2013 and if it isn't good news, I'll damn well charge him for the steak.\"\nTroy and I both chuckled, before I asked if there was anything I could do to help. Mr C told me that he had everything under control, but suggested I could put a few more beers in the cooler.\n\"Does that mean we can have one Pa?\"\n\"Not while there's a lawyer sat a few feet away from you!\"\nI'd never tasted beer and this wasn't really the time to ask Troy if he had. No doubt one day I would, but I didn't feel any great urgency to do so. I was happy to stick to root beer or some other type of soda.\nTroy and I wandered back into the house and were about to sit down in the family room to watch some TV when Mrs C appeared and asked me if I could give her a hand preparing some salads. I was glad to have something to do as it took my mind off wondering what Mr Richards was going to have to say.\nI was a bit surprised when Mr Richards did arrive because he was dressed very differently to how he had been when we'd met with him earlier in the day. Either he'd gone home to change before coming here or perhaps he kept a change of clothes at the office. Whichever, it was gone with the business suit and dress shirt; instead it was khaki chinos, a light blue sports shirt and what I presumed was a cashmere sweater draped over his shoulders. We said our hellos and I noticed when he kissed Alicia there was more to it than a casual greeting of people who didn't know each other. Naturally we were all dying to know what had occurred and it wasn't too long before, with everyone equipped with a drink, we adjourned to the family room and made ourselves comfortable.\n\"Alright, Marvin, you're gonna make me ask aren't you? So what's happened?\" Mr C asked.\n\"Do you want the full version?\"\n\"Hell, I'm paying for it and we've got nowhere to rush off to, so we might as well have the full version.\"\nEveryone chuckled at that and Marvin made a point of looking at his watch as if to note the time. Yeah, it was evident they knew each other well.\n\"When you left, Maria, Miss Baroncello that is, was just about to go to the police station and meet with your Detective Diamond. That lady is quite a looker I have to say, even if I shouldn't. I can see her persuading quite a few male jurors to vote guilty when she's in a courtroom. I've only crossed swords with her once and I lost, but I told myself I had a pretty weak case.\"\nHe laughed and we all joined in.\n\"So, you understand that what I am going to tell you is what she told me after her meeting with him?\" We all nodded or grunted our understanding. \"Also, it would probably be best if you don't repeat what I say, although some of it will be pretty obvious to anyone who has an interest in the case. Mind you, it doesn't seem to have made big news in the local media as yet, although that could change.\"\n\"I'm very glad we haven't had the local TV and press camped outside the house.\" Mrs C said.\n\"I can only surmise their hospital reporter was on holiday on Sunday when Troy was brought in; normally they'd be onto a case of a kid\u2026.\"\n\"Hey, I'm no kid!\" Troy interjected.\n\"Sorry, Troy. I should have said young man.\"\n\"That's better.\" Troy commented with his lopsided grin.\n\"Stop interrupting Troy and let Marvin tell us what we're desperate to know,\" said Mrs C.\nTroy and I were sat next to each other on the settee. I had my left arm draped round his shoulder. Now I pulled his head towards me, planted a little kiss on his cheek and whispered in his ear.\n\"Behave yourself or Nurse Jackson will have to deal with you later.\"\nTroy started a chuckle that soon turned into a full blown laugh. Everyone was looking at us.\n\"Are you going to share the joke with us?\" his father asked.\nTroy recovered enough to respond, \"Adam said I had to behave myself.\"\n\"Or I'd give him his medicine later.\" I put in, causing Troy to start laughing again.\n\"Please don't Adam. I'll be good.\"\n\"Just make sure you are, Troy. I'm sorry Mr Richards, but sometimes the kid in him gets out of control.\"\nTroy started laughing again and I was glad to see him much happier than he'd been for the last couple of days.\n\"To continue,\" said Mr Richards, \"when Maria met with Detective Diamond the first thing he said to her was that he'd made a mistake when he called you this morning, Jeff.\"\nWe all looked puzzled.\n\"He said that the pictures hadn't in fact been deleted\u2026..\"\n\"What?\" I think we all exclaimed at the same time.\n\"He claimed that he had not been familiar with that particular model of cell and had simply pressed the wrong buttons. When the pictures didn't appear as he expected, he thought he must have deleted them and that was when he called you. Sometime later he checked again and this time they were there.\"\n\"That doesn't sound very likely, although I suppose anything is possible I guess\" Mr C. commented.\n\"Based on later developments Jeff, I don't think that was the case. I believe he called you hoping that if he told you the pictures had vanished you'd decide not to pursue the case without the evidence, but I think it had the opposite effect as you immediately got in touch with me.\"\n\"So why would he do that?\" Mr C asked.\n\"Well, when I'd talked with Maria earlier we were both puzzled by some aspects of how he had handled the case. Why hadn't he handed over the phone for safekeeping as evidence after Adam gave it to him? Why hadn't he either taken a statement from Adam when he handed in the phone, or called him back to do so later yesterday? Why seemingly hadn't he done anything about at least bringing in for questioning the two boys Adam identified, if not actually arresting them?\"\n\"I hadn't thought about those things,\" said Mr C. \"but now you mention them it does seem strange, almost as if he wanted the case to go away.\"\n\"This only came out at the end of her meeting with Diamond, but he eventually admitted that his sister was Daubney's mother.\"\nNaturally there were varied exclamations at this revelation.\n\"She and his father divorced some years ago, but as soon as he saw the picture he knew it was his nephew. Of course as such he should immediately have handed over the potential case to another detective, but he didn't. As for why he didn't bring the pair in yesterday, his claim is that he tried to find them but couldn't. I wouldn't mind betting that if his own cell records were searched it would show up a call to either Daubney or his father warning that Mike and his pal should make themselves scarce for a day or so.\"\nI was sitting there stunned and it seemed everyone else was speechless.\nAfter a pause while we all gathered our thoughts, Mr C asked, \"Did he really think he was going to get away with this?\"\n\"As I said, I believe his hope would be that you'd not pursue the case. But, not only was his nephew involved, but as Adam realized he is also a member of the church he used to attend. Consequently he holds pretty strong views about gays and so\u2026.\"\n\"That's just awful for an officer of the law.\" Mrs C said.\n\"He was undoubtedly a fool and is going to lose his job and career as a result.\"\n\"So did someone either arrest or bring Mike in for questioning after that.\" I asked.\n\"Not immediately, Adam. In the light of what Troy said this morning about biting a certain part of Brian Ryan's anatomy\u2026..\"\nAt that Troy blushed I swear, while the rest of us tried to suppress our laughter.\n\"After Maria had finished her conversation with the shortly to be ex-Detective Diamond, the police went out and brought him in for questioning. He was accompanied by his father and to start, on his father's insistence, he refused to answer any questions until his lawyer was present. Once the lawyer had arrived he initially denied any involvement whatsoever and claimed to have been out of town on Sunday afternoon. The detective handling the case then asked if he would be willing to give a DNA sample at which point apparently Brian started to get rather agitated and the calm veneer he had been portraying started to crack. His response was to refuse at which point the detective said that he would be arrested and would then have to give a DNA sample as well as undergo a medical examination. He then said that he wanted to have a private discussion with his lawyer so the detectives left the interview room. When they were called back a few minutes later Brian's lawyer said that they wanted to discuss a plea deal.\"\n\"Wow! So he rolled on them?\" I exclaimed.\nMr Richards chuckled. \"I think that how it is described in TV series, Adam, but yes that was basically what he did. He claimed the idea to attack Troy came from Mike Daubney and Kyle Lundgren and that he and Tyler Smith were forced to go along with it.\"\n\"That's a lie!\" Troy interjected forcefully. \"It probably was Mike's idea originally because he got jealous over me falling in love with Adam after I'd refused to let him fu\u2026\u2026screw me.\"\n\"Troy \u2013 language please!\" Mrs C said.\n\"Sorry mom, but that was what he wanted me for, not because he really felt anything for me.\"\nTroy started to tear up and I hugged him tight trying to convey to him just how much I loved him.\n\"He only wanted me for sex. With Adam it's totally different, yes we have sex, but that's to show how much we love each other. Plus, it's only one part of how we love each other. I just hate being apart from him and when I am, seeing him and his smile again, make me realize how lucky I am.\"\n\"And that goes for me too.\" I added, giving him another hug and a little kiss on his cheek. We'd never really been this open about our relationship in front of a stranger before, although I suppose Mr Richards wasn't really a stranger. I just felt though that we shouldn't need to hide what we felt for each other.\n\"But, Mr Richards the four of them had already pursued us once before and knocked me around a bit,\" Troy said, \"so how can he claim to have been forced to go along with it?\"\n\"I consider it would be hard to persuade a jury of that\u2026\u2026..\"\n\"Especially if Ms Baroncello was prosecuting.\" I interjected getting a few chuckles.\n\"Indeed so, Adam. But leaving her to one side, Ryan performed a sex act on Troy, watched while his friend Tyler did the same and then was prepared to hold Troy to enable the other two to perform an even grosser act. Those are hardly the actions of an unwilling participant.\"\n\"What happened when Brian's lawyer asked for a plea deal?\" Troy wanted to know.\n\"As with all plea deals there was some haggling back and forth. One side wants to gain as much as possible, while the other wants to concede as little as it has to. Ryan has the most to gain from the case not going to trial because there is more evidence against him than any of the others. That is not to say that the others wouldn't be found guilty at a trial, more that the judge might be unable to consider them all as equally guilty when it came to sentencing, not least because the charges would be different. With Daubney and Lundgren the case is just assault and conspiracy to commit a sex offence \u2013 not that those aren't serious charges, but their lawyers are going to argue that they didn't do anything sexual to Troy, merely aided and abetted the other two in doing so.\"\n\"But they were going to do more to me than Brian & Tyler\"\n\"Yes Troy, which is a point Brian & Tyler's lawyers will be stressing. There is going to be a very definite split in the way this is approached. Thus Ms Baroncello was playing hardball in the negotiations; she'd already told me that she was intending to try all of them as adults and seek jail terms. So the final offer she made was for two years in an adult prison, but ensuring that he could have protective custody for the duration, provided he pleaded guilty and testified against the others.\"\n\"And what about the others? What's happened with them?\" Mr C asked.\n\"I gather they brought Tyler in shortly afterwards and when confronted with what Brian had admitted, he, or rather his lawyer, sought the same deal.\"\n\"And the other two?\"\n\"Have still to be rounded up last I heard. I don't imagine it will be long before they are apprehended and it has to be said that disappearing in this way does make them look guilty.\"\n\"Will Brian & Tyler be kept in custody?\" Troy asked.\n\"They may be kept overnight, but I'm sure bail will be offered with some strict conditions. I'm certain they'll be tagged and not permitted to attend school, perhaps even confined to their homes.\"\n\"Good, I don't want to see them at school as I might just lose control.\"\n\"I can understand your feelings Troy, but the last thing needed would be for you to attack either of them \u2013 and that goes for you too Jeff, and indeed Adam. Vigilante action would be very much frowned on however justified it might seem.\"\nThat was about as much as Mr Richards could tell us about what had happened after we'd left him earlier. It seemed to be good news, although I knew I'd feel happier once Mike and Kyle had been apprehended and taken into custody.\nMr C went outside to fire up the grill and Marvin went with him. Mrs C went to the kitchen to finish getting the salads ready which left Troy and I on the settee.\n\"How're you feeling now?\" I asked him.\n\"Better after hearing what Mr Richards had to say.\"\nI didn't like to share my thoughts about Mike and Kyle with him as I wanted to keep him cheerful.\n\"How's the body doing?\"\n\"It still hurts in places, but that cream seems to help with the bruises.\"\nThere was a trace of a smile as he said that.\n\"Does that mean you want some more applied later?\"\n\"Having you rubbing that onto me is the only good thing that has come outa this.\"\nI chuckled. \"You should know I enjoy rubbing things onto you.\"\n\"Yeah - and one day soon once my fingers are back to normal, I'm gonna return that favour.\"\n\"I'm looking forward to that.\"\n\"I can tell you are,\" said Troy as he placed his hand over the zip of my skinnies where my dick had sprung into life at the thought. He started to pull the zip down.\n\"Troy, don't - your mom could come back at any moment.\"\nAt that point he realized he wasn't in the right position to pull it down any further.\n\"Pull it down for me Adam. I want to get my hand inside and feel your warmth. She's not likely to come in here for a while. She's busy finishing the salads and then she'll go outside with them and they'll probably all talk. I bet someone will call us when the steaks are ready rather than come in here. Please\u2026\u2026.\"\nWell, I always found it hard to resist Troy, especially when he adopted that pleading tone, so I raised my butt off the settee to make it a bit easier and then pushed down my zip.\n\"Undo the top button too.\"\n\"Troy, that's really risking it.\"\n\"Yeah, but I can't get my hand in otherwise and it makes it more fun if you get caught.\"\n\"If I get caught! What do you mean? We'd both be caught.\"\n\"Not if I got my hand out in time. Then it'd just be you sitting here jacking yourself off,\" he said with a dirty chuckle.\n\"You\u2026\u2026..!\" I exclaimed in a loud whisper, but I did as he asked and I immediately felt his hand snake inside my skinnies and onto my briefs. My dick responded to the touch and got harder as he began to rub and stroke it.\n\"Troy, I'm gonna cum if you keep doing this and then what do I do?\"\n\"Good thing you aren't commando as then you'd have to change your jeans and that would lead to eyebrows being raised and questions asked,\" he retorted. \"On the other hand it'd feel a lot nicer if you were commando.\"\nHe continued stroking and rubbing while speaking. It may have been only a few hours since Troy had brought me off in bed, but that was more than enough time for the batteries to have recharged.\n\"I mean it Troy, I'm gonna cum.\" And that I almost immediately did, as my body jerked and spasmed. I leaned back on the settee and tried to come down from the high I was on. I guess being jerked off in the family room rather than in the privacy of Troy's bedroom coupled with the possibility of being discovered, had added something to the experience.\nTroy removed his hand from inside my jeans. Glancing down I could see my briefs were soaked in cum. Troy brought his hand to his mouth and licked the palm and his fingers.\n\"Not much, but it makes a good starter. Hope Pa isn't too long with the main course.\"\nI cracked up when he said that. \"Troy, you're incorrigible.\"\nHe put on an innocent expression. \"Is that anything like plagiarism?\"\nThat cracked me up even further as it took us back to the time when Troy had moved his chair to join with me in a project in our World Geography class.\n\"No, but what we just did is a good example of collaboration.\"\nThis time it was him who cracked up.\n\"Adam, not for one second have I regretted that day \u2013 best thing I ever did.\"\n\"And I'm grateful every minute that you did.\"\nTroy moved to sit astride my legs and leaned in to kiss me. We had just begun to let our tongues enjoy the moment when I heard,\n\"Time to break it up boys - the steaks are about to be cooked,\"\n\"Okay mom, we'll be right out.\"\n\"I just need to nip upstairs first Mrs C.\"\n\"Don't be long Adam.\"\nWe hadn't heard her come into the room, but we watched as she left. As soon as she'd gone we both started giggling. Troy stood up which allowed me to do up my jeans before heading upstairs. I was about to find out just how quickly it was possible to get out of, and back into, a pair of skinny grey jeans, which just for the hell of it I was going to wear commando. Somehow during the evening I'd have to find a way of letting Troy know that as I wanted to see his reaction.\nAlso, I decided that somehow I was going to find a way of getting him back for what he'd just done to me. There was a little voice in my head telling me that would be rather immature for someone who was nearly sixteen and more appropriate for someone of thirteen or so. But then I'd never had the chance to fool around like that back then, so I could overrule that little voice and say I was just making up for lost opportunities to have some fun.",

His mother carried him, [increasing her] in weakness upon weakness, and his weaning is in two years. Be grateful to Me and to your parents; to Me is the [final] destination.\" (Qur'an 31:14)\n\"And lower unto them the wing of submission and humility through mercy, and say: 'My Lord! Bestow on them Your Mercy as they did bring me up when I was small.'\" (Quran 17:24)\nOn the authority of Abu Sufian Sakhr Harb (R.A.), who said: During his meeting with Hercules, the Roman Ruler, the latter asked him; 'What does your Prophet (S.A.W.) ask you to do?' I said: 'He asked us to worship only One God, and not to associate anybody with him; not to follow the habits and practices of our ancestors; he further asks us to perform prayers (Salat), tell the truth, keep chaste, and to treat our blood relations well.' -(Bukhari and Muslim)\n\"Dutiful and good natured children who cast one loving and affectionate look at their parents, receive from The Almighty blessing equivalent to one approved Hajj (pilgrimage).\" -(Muslim)\nIt is narrated that a man came to Allah's Apostle and said, \"O Allah's Apostle! Who is more entitled to be treated with the best companionship by me?\" The Prophet said, \"Your mother.\" The man said. \"Who is next?\" The Prophet said, \"Your mother.\" The man further said, \"Who is next?\" The Prophet said, \"Your mother.\" The man asked for the fourth time, \"Who is next?\" The Prophet said, \"Your father.\" (Bukhari)\nQuotes Related to Parents:\nThe greatest blessing after the bounties of the Creator is the blessing of parents. - Ar Razi\nLove your parents and treat them with loving care for you will only know their value when you see their empty chair.\nThe most beautiful thing in this world is to see your parents smilin and knowing that you are the reason behind that smile.\nDon't anger your parents in order to please other people. Those other people did not spend their lives building yours.\nYou can have many bank accounts, friends, vehicles, etc, but you have only one set of parents. Be mindful of them.",

First it was for the plantations, now it is the developers and billionaires who want favors from the county. Other than providing cushy jobs to friends and family, the county little to protect the middle class property owner on the island. In the case of Papaa Bay access the negligence goes back 50 years.]\nby Tom Finnegan on 15 February 2007 in The Honolulu Star Bullitin\nA federal court judge has ruled that the public cannot reach Papaa Bay beach on Kauai through movie producer Peter Guber's property, ending a three-year battle over access that led to at least four arrests.\nWhile there is other public access to the pristine beach with a beautiful lagoon, Kauai County had argued that it owns a road that connects Papaa Road directly to the beach.\nThe existing path to the bay involves about 10 minutes of hiking across a relatively steep hill and about 50 yards of boulder-hopping.\nBut the road, which twists and turns through Tara Plantation, Guber's property, leads directly to the sand. There is a gate, however, that prevents public access.\nThe county and Mandalay Properties, Guber's management company, had sued each other, and the case ended up in federal court.\nJudge Kevin Chang ruled last week that Mandalay has clear title to the area and that there is no evidence that the road ever was owned by the county or the state.\nIn granting judgment for Mandalay, Chang said the county could not prove that the road had been used by the public consistently since 1958, when the gate was built. Consistent use of the road, which did take place before the gate was built, could have created an easement, Chang said, but the statute of limitations ran out in 1978.The county did not return calls for comment.\nPaul Alston, Guber's lawyer, said his client was \"very pleased\" with the decision.\nWhile the county does have the right to appeal, Alston said, \"our position has always been that there was no evidence to support the county's claim.\"If the county continues the appeal process, he said, he will continue to appeal another lawsuit filed to recoup expenses from the county.\n\"It's pretty much over,\" he added.\nThe controversy began in 2003, when public-access advocates found maps and deeds dating to 1931 that seemed to offer evidence that the public owned the road.\nDespite calls for calm from Kauai Mayor Bryan Baptiste, the public showed up in December 2003 for a \"public-access celebration.\" Police officers turned away more than a hundred people trying to use the road to get to the beach. Four people were arrested for trespassing.\nOne man pleaded no contest and received a $50 fine. Charges against the three others were dropped about a year later, when the county hired a public-access expert who decided the road was public. That led to numerous lawsuits.\nLoke Perreira, head of the public-access committee for the Kauai Chapter of the Sierra Club, was at the 2003 celebration. She said yesterday that she had not heard about the decision, but that it was typical of Kauai, where rich landowners push around the general public without protection by elected officials.\n\"With money, (the millionaires) can move mountains, literally,\" she said.\n\"The next generation is going to lose out if our leaders don't save some of it.\"\nTara Plantation has been for sale for a number of years. According to real estate Web sites, the six-bedroom, 8.5-bath home with numerous amenities (including a caretaker's home and ranch land) on 23.5 acres of land is offered for a little less than $30 million.\nThe whole parcel, which includes the home and 171.3 acres, can be purchased for $46.5 million,\nIsland Breath: Papaa Beach 4",

MMOs are so packed with potential that those who don't understand them can be afraid, and those who do understand them can neglect their wider impact.

I am deeply in their debt.\nThank you Suzanne, Liam, Ralph, Rory, Ronnie, John, Barney and Eamonn. This album is for my friends, my family and my loved ones, who for all these years have sustained me through the highs and suffered me through the lows! Grateful thanks to all of my team who put so much into this recording. On the musical side; Frank Gallagher, Dave Leonard, Paul Crew, Phil Hopkins, Alan Prosser, Diana Mitchell, Gerry Richards and all the musicians. On the technical side; my engineer Tony Harris. On the administrative side; Kate Anderson, Maurice Cassidy, Liz Reeves, Brian O'Brien and Graham Williams.\nWILL YE GO LASSIE GO? \u2014 This is one of the first songs I ever learned. I never thought that one day I'd record a version of it featuring a legendary guitar hero like Rory Gallagher. His style and technique are world famous, but I am lost in admiration for the sensitivity of his playing on this track, on both acoustic and electric guitars.\nSTEAL AWAY \u2014 I must say I've developed a soft spot for this song, which I wrote for the Fureys in 1983. It's a very simple tune, but it has proved a great favourite with audiences from Strabane to San Diego!\nI LOVED THE GROUND \u2014 Ralph McTell is one of the Fmest singer/songwriterrs in contemporary folk music and I'm very proud of this song, which we wrote together. Its been recorded by a number of singers, but I love this version by the man himself.\nTAKE ME HOME \u2014 I have a long association with the Dubliners, having been involved as songwriter and record producer through the Seventies. It was great fun recording with the again and I got a real kick from seeing Ronnie singmg in front of an orchestra!\nTHE OLD MAN \u2014 Of all the songs I've written through the years, only a handful are still important to me today. This is certainly one of them, a very personal song, written from the heart.\nSCORN NOT HIS SIMPLICITY \u2014 Another one of those important songs, originally written for the great Luke Kelly and subsequently recorded and performed by a a host of artistes at home and abroad (from Paddy Reilly and Dickie Rock to Mary O'Hara and Tke New Seekers). Suzanne Murphy is universally regarded as one of the finest sopranos in the world. Her haunting version gives the song with a whole new quality.\nHOME FROM THE SEA \u2014 This new song, written to draw attention to the work of lifeboats, enjoyed great chart success earlier this year. It's a story song, and there just isn't anyone better at telling a story in song than Liam Clancy.\nTHE TOWN I LOVED SO WELL \u2014 This is the song I'd like to be remembered for.\n1995 - Arista F:BM650 CD\nWhen There's Time (For Love) (Eddie Schwartz, Gowan, John David Souther)\nRomeo's Twin (Phil Manikiza, Shelly Peiken)\nWhite City Of Light (Katharina Franck, Michael Beckmann)\nLet's Make Trouble (Rodney Crowell)\nMiles Away (John Hurley)\nI Can't Make You Love Me (Allen Shamblin, Mike Reid)\nWhatever It Takes (Holly Knight)\nDon't Stop Now (Helen Watson, Martin McGroarty)\nFlying Blind (Bill Whelan)\nRed Roses For Me (Sean O'Casey) \u2014 w/The Dubliners\nProducer: John Jennings\nThe Irish Album\n2003 - EMI 7243 5 57601 28 CD\nThe Wild Rover \u2014 with The Dubliners\nWhiskey In The Jar \u2014 with The Dubliners\nDublinia: Dicy Reily/The Waxie's Dargle/Molly Malone/The Rare Aul' Times/The Rocky Road To Dublin \u2014 with The Dubliners\nRemember Me/Requerdame\nThe Celtic Tenors: James Nelson, Niall Morris, Matthew Gilsenan\nPete St. John wrote this Irish classic in 1979, but the words can be traced back to a ballad published in the 1880s. Our own Paddy Reilly made the song a hit when impresario Jim Hand discovered it for him, and since then it has gone on to be adopted as the anthem for many sporting organisations. It tells the poigant story of a man in 1846 who is deported to Australia for attempting to steal corn to feed his family during the famine. Niall\nWhen I was twelve, I played the lead in a joint production (the Christian brothers boys' school and the local convent girls' school) of a show called The Wild Rover, which summarises the general story. I sang it then in my high soprano voice. We recorded the piece with Ireland's own prodigal sons The Dubliners; Paddy Reilly sings the role of the older returned son admirably. Thanks guys \u2014 it was a blast !!!!! Matthew\nThin Lizzie changed the course of Irish rock music for ever when they released Whiskey in the Jar in 1972. Eric Bell's melodic and virtuoso guitar playing and the sheer rockin' treatment meant that never again would it be taboo to treat our great old Irish songs in ways other than the accepted tradition. This pushed the door open for the rest to follow, from Rory Gallagher to the Pogues to Sin\u00e9ad O'Connor. The Irish conscience now understands that if these classics are to survive they must stand the heat of the smithy's forge of new styles. Matthew\nMary is to Donegal what Rose is to Tralee, for every year the small Irish town of Dungloe hosts a beaty contest named after its most famous song. And just as in Kerry where the winner becomes the Rose for that year, in Donegal there is great excitement to know who the next Mary will be. Niall\nWilliam 'Percy' French (1854 - 1920) was born in County Roscommon. Aside from being the 'Inspector of Drains' in County Cavan, he was a writer of dramatic verse and monologues, a banjo-player and a fine watercolour artist. However it is for his songs he is best remembered, and in particular his comic ones. Phil the Fluter's Ball vividly paints the scene of a country dance and its colourful array of characters. James\nThis is my earliest memory of a 'you can do it too' pop song: I was aged ten, and ably strumming out the Wings version on my autie's guitar. The song came to be almost reviled because of excessive radio play; now I think the time is right to give it another go. Matthew\nOne of the best-loved up-tempo tunes in the Celtic tenors repertoire, this version of the English forlk tune Dives and Lazarus was a favourite of the late John McCormack. We hope our somewhat contemporary setting, with its use of slide guitars and the like, doesn't make the great Count turn in his grave! James\nPhil Coulter's classic song about the violence and destruction that nearly ruined his beloved home town of Derry in Northern Ireland has perhaps acquired a more universal relevance around the world since the atrocities of 11 September 2001. It is a hard-hitting song about the corrosiveness of violence and of man's apparently unceasing ability to inflict pain and suffering on his fellow man. Ultimately, though, it is a moving anthem of peace and reconciliation. Niall\nThis popular spiritual piece by the great Se\u00e1n \u00f3 Riada talks of life as a seed which flowers, grows old and dies, only to experience rebirth in Heaven. I used to sing it as a child at my local church. Matthew\nAn example of puirt-a-beul ('mouth-music'), a popular Scottish folk form in which instrumental dance tunes \u2014 strathspeys, reels, jigs \u2014 are sung to words, often satirical or in nonsense- rhyme. Such pieces were possibly danced to when no instrumentalist was available. Fionnghuala was a popular number with The Bothy Band, a group that had a real influence not only in my own musical tastes but also in the direction of traditional Celtic music worldwide. Matthew\nThis tells the story of a superstar of the 1930's and '40s, Jack Doyle. Jack was born in Cobh, near Cork City, where he made a reputation as a brilliant boxer and a fine tenor. In 1933, at a time when he was earning \u00a3 600 a week as a singer, he could draw 90,000 fans to London's White City to watch him fight. His only vice was alcohol. He married a famous Mexican actress Movita, and they raised hell together, but a growing drink problem proved too strong for Jack; he struggled with it until he died, destitute and shoeless, on the streets of London in 1978. Jimmy MacCarthy's songs have a unique depth and beauty which show that the bard is alive and well in Ireland. Matthew\nThe incredible voice of Finbar Furey brought this song very much into the public eye in Ireland. The grave of a 19-year-old soldier killed at the Battle of the Somme in 1916 underlines the tragedy of war and of every soldier going into battle: 'Did they really believe that this war would end wars?'. James\nEamonn Campbell of the legendary Dubliners is a producer on our album, and Niall was born and bred in Dublin, so it seemed right and proper to record a selection of tunes from our nations's capital \u2014 'Dublinia' \u2014 classics such as Molly Malone and Pete St. John's The Rare Aul' Times, as well as songs telling of a young man's journey up from the country (Tuam) to the 'big smoke' ( The Rocky Road To Dublin ), an invitation to Bray in County Wicklow for the annual outing of the Dublin Candlemakers ( The Waxie's Dargle ), and a lady with an obvious drink problem ( Dicey Reilly ) who is nonetheless the life and soul of the party. James\nA tapestry of lyrical magic as only Jimmy MacCarthy can weave. A mythical love song to an ancient Celtic princess \u2014 that's how Jimmy sees his beloved Eire. A beauty eyond beauty, a woman and land created by God's own hand, a love song crafted with such wonder you feel you must be part of this Celtic dream. The track was produced by Jimmy himself and was the first single recorded by the group. As producer, Jimmy felt the Tenors' love of harmonies would make them unique, and so it has proved. Pat\nRemember Me / Requ\u00e9rdame\nThis classic love song has contributed more than any other to the success of The Celtic Tenors. Written by Phil ('The Town I loved So Well') Coulter especially for the Celts, it has been, and will continue to be for the rest of their careers, the outstanding number in their stage set. It never fails to get a huge response, with standing ovations the norm. The tale of war heroes the night before battle longing to be in the arms of loved ones can honestly leave the hair standing up on the back of your neck. Sheer Brilliance! The boys perform the song with passion and emotion, leaving it right up there with the great pop classics like You've Lost That Loving Feeling. Despite numerous other cover versions, no-one has come near my favourite song by the Tenors and Phil Coulter.

        "title": "Introduction to the Jack London Family - by Helen Abbott",
        "raw_content": "Hello. Welcome to the Jack London Family. I am the matriarch of this family.\nI would like to introduce the descendants of Jack London and his first wife, Bessie Maddern London.\nI am Helen Darcy Abbott, daughter-in-law of Joan London, their first child. Joan was born January 15, 1901, married Park Abbott, born 1900. Their son, Bart Abbott, was born October 12, 1921. Imagine! Jack London, had he lived 5 years more, would have been only 45 years of age when that first grandchild was born. Bess London (known as Becky), born October 20, 1902, married Percy Fleming. One daughter, Jean Wellman Knight, one son, Guy Fleming.\nThese three named children of Joan and Becky London, i.e. Bart Abbott, Jean Wellman, and Guy Fleming, are direct descendants, grandchildren of Jack and Bessie London. From this line of descent there are eight great-grandchildren. Bart Abbott was Joan's only child. He and his first wife, Lee Pence, had two daughters, Julie and Jill Abbott; Bart had three more daughters by his second wife (myself); they are Darcy, Chaney, and Tarnel Abbott. These are Joan's grandchildren.\nJean Wellman and her husband, Charles Knight, had two sons, Charles Gene and Bruce Knight. These are Becky's grandsons. Guy Fleming and his wife Winona had one daughter, Sandra; Becky's grand-daughter, making eight great-grandchildren of Jack and Bessie London.\nThere is of course another generation, seventeen great-great grandchildren! Unless some one wants to keep a genealogy chart I think all the above should suffice for now. However these descendants, like the acorn, did not fall far from the tree. You may have an interest in the lives of some of these offspring of Jack and Bessie London; so I will start with Joan and Becky London and warn you that my perceptions of these two women are very personal and biased in their favor.\nTo begin; I had no idea that I would marry into the London family. And I almost bolted when I first learned that I would become Jack London's grand-daughter-in-law...it was a case of worshiping at the feet of the idol. And so it happened: I met Joan, my mother-in-law-to-be, in 1946 in her home in Berkeley, California near the Claremont Hotel. She was an awesome, majestic figure coming down a broad carpeted staircase in that stately, large, brown-shingled house at 17 El Camino Real.\nI was to be the second wife of her only child and I was almost numbed by the dynamic force of this incredibly stunning woman who welcomed me with \"arms around\", as her father would have said. That same week Bart took me to meet his grandmother, Bessie Maddern London, who I was told, had suffered a stroke, and was a patient in THE KING'S DAUGHTERS HOME on Broadway in Oakland, California.\nThis visit, this introduction to Jack London's first wife, the mother of his only living children, was almost beyond belief; too shocking. She died the following year; the beloved \"Nana\" who lovingly cared for those three young grandchildren, Bart, Jean, and Guy while their mothers worked outside the home.\nJoan had a variety of jobs which led to a more interesting and exciting lifestyle with a great amount of newspaper publicity which might not have met with husband approval. She was married five times, twice to the same man. Her marriage to Charles Lortz Miller, her high school sweetheart and Oakland's Tri-athelete Champion (Indian Miller), lasted for 23 years until his death in 1970. She followed him in death less than a year later, and was in turn joined by her first husband, Park Abbott, ten days apart...all three had been high school friends and maintained a life-long friendship. Joan was truly her father's daughter, a warrior for the California Farm Workers, and worked tirelessly with labor leaders on just about every cause for benefit of the workers. She was a true socialist. She had worked practically all her life, was self-supporting, shared child support expenses with her divorced husband, the father of Bart, and even shared the raising of their child with equal time, which usually worked out for the best interest of all.\nDuring this period of shared care, Joan became a professional speaker, travelling frequently from California to New York and cities in between giving talks on her father to gatherings of Jack London fans who hired her through an agency. During the Depression she worked for the W.P.A. (Works Progress Administration). It's impossible for me to document all the kinds of jobs; some took her to Hollywood...She worked as advisor on a William Wellman film of THE CALL OF THE WILD; wrote short stories, wrote her first biography of her father; JACK LONDON AND HIS TIMES, traveled in Russia with her second husband, Charles Malamuth, and E.E. Cummings, who wrote a book about her.\nShe continued her own writing in between jobs; \"So Shall Ye Reap\", the story of the California migrant farm workers, co-authored with Henry Anderson; wrote her first memoir of life as a child of a bitter divorce but did not publish it. It is at the Huntington Library, entitled \"Visiting Rights Only\". In the last years of her life she wrote a tender memoir, JACK LONDON AND HIS DAUGHTERS, offered it to the University of Washington Press, half finished but with a synopsis and Afterward. The press had reissued a second edition of JACK LONDON AND HIS TIMES and held this last book under contract. Bart continued the contract as he had promised his mother as she lay dying.\nAfter eight years the press was unable to obtain needed permission to publish. Bart recovered the ms. and the book was published by Malcolm Margolin of Heyday Press, Berkeley. After Joan's death, the California State Legislature voted unanimously to honor her for her 20 years work with the State Federation of Labor and her devotion to worker's causes. They sent Bart a beautifully bound, gold embossed document which will be copied for you to read.\nJoan and her sister Becky were of opposite personalities. This difference in personality when analyzed by historians would be a joke if it were not for the damage it causes; not just to the two women but to some others of the family, and even to their forebears. Joan was my mother-in-law from 1946 until her death in 1971.\nShe was the homemaker as well as a career woman commuting every day by train from Pleasant Hill to San Francisco; a gourmet cook, a gardener, an author, a knitter of socks, a seamstress of dresses, pajamas, and robes for her grandchildren, a lover of cats and dogs and exotic fish, the savior of wounded birds...the person most ready to help you when your luck ran out. Do you believe you know this woman? These two women were sisters. You never sat with them in a house or garden, overhearing their chatter their poignant memories of \"Daddy\".\nNeither were they saints, they both hen-pecked their husbands. Both were voracious readers. Joan was an up-front, in-your-face challenger of bigots. She was mostly serious, thoughtful.\nBecky was a chatterer, flighty, mercurial. She took the name \"Becky\" after seeing the stage play of Becky Sharp. And just to give you something to think about, she became Becky Sharp, and with her sense of comedy she gave the Jack London fans a run for their money. Her life story might be better told by the two grandsons, whom she loved. I had fondness for Becky. When I married her nephew Bart, she made me a photo album of Bart's childhood. She kept with her all her life a sea-scape I painted for her. She hides her good deeds, and the hurts. She spent years translating all of her father's books into Braile. She was self-employed in the card shop she and her husband ran and I'd bet it bored her frantic.",

        "raw_content": "17 Jul 3 Things to Consider Before Taking a Political Position as Your Brand\nPosted at 20:16h in Facebook Tips, Google Tips, Instagram Tips, Linkedin Tips, Pinterest Tips, Snapchat Tips, Social Media, Tips & Quotes, Twitter Tips\tby\tJenny\nIn the world of social media today, it isn\u2019t uncommon to see plenty of posts regarding anything related to politics. It\u2019s one thing to do it on your personal social media accounts, but it\u2019s a whole different story to do this as your brand. This article comes from Entrepreneur.\nAs more and more customers vent their frustration with the increasing political divide by exercising the power of their pocketbooks, I expect that it will be harder and harder for brands to stay silent on their political positions. Here are three things you must consider before you step out and speak up.\n1. Know what your ideal customer expects and don\u2019t let them down.\nYou may think that your target market prefers that you steer clear of political topics, but do you really know? In a series of controlled experiments performed by Drexel University, researchers found that avoiding political activism can actually damage a brand if their consumers believe them to be a \u201cvalues-oriented\u201d company.\nOne extreme example is Patagonia. The company is chartered as a Benefit Corporation, so they can\u2019t easily avoid taking public stands on political issues. As a company with near-cult status among outdoor sports enthusiasts and nature activists, taking a no-holds-barred position on recent decisions to reduce the size of national monuments is both in line with their charter and their brand. REI, another outdoor retail brand, has made some sweeping statements on the subject as well.\nIf your brand is either known for, or desires to be known for, making a difference in local or global communities, or if a policy directly impacts the people who are fans of your core product or service, you need to be seen and heard on the issue.\n2. Craft a message that aligns with your brand.\nStanding on the sidelines is a sure way to keep your brand out of the fray, but it\u2019s also a sure way to miss out on the spotlight. No matter which side of the issue you\u2019re on, making your position clear will anger some folks but you will also find that prospects who align with your message suddenly \u201cdiscover\u201d that you are their new favorite brand. That notoriety and the business it brings will be short-lived unless you are clear about why the issue matters to you and to your customers.\nA good example is Penzey\u2019s Spices. During the last election cycle founder and CEO Bill Penzey used the brand\u2019s email list and Facebook page to spread a message of cultural inclusion and resistance to the politics of Donald Trump and other Republican politicians. The brand quickly became a household word. Calls to boycott the company have been prolific but sales have been ever more so. Penzey has followed a time-tested recipe that any brand would do well to emulate, regardless of their political stance. His communications are passionate and articulate, his position is clear and concise. More than that, he\u2019s tied his message to his product by focusing on the worldwide cultures that his herbs and spices represent and the age-old tradition of sharing food as a way of healing communities.\nClick here to view the article in its entirety.",

        "title": "The Truth About Lies: Making a pig of myself",
        "raw_content": "Wow, Congrats Jim! I understand the feeling. I started having published articles in our local mags when I was already 32 yrs. old (late- don't you agree?)and these were small pieces; short stories and a poem or two... I would not agree that you're old. Your ideas are new and dynamic...\nI feel young when it concerns my writing as I'm still beginning on this writing journey.\nThanks for your helpful insights and pointers.\nI wish I could publish one book too, even it it would be a self-published one. Thanks for the pointers, I still have to buy your book. Cheers.\nI suppose thirty-two is late, Jena, but it's not too late. The world is changing faster than I care for but there are good things. It's no longer a major consideration to get yourself in print. Getting a book deal is certainly not what it once was and so much of the work to promote the book is falling on the author's shoulders that self-publishing is looking more and more attractive. At least there you have total control. You should investigate what's available locally. You'll never make your fortune, in fact you'll be lucky to recoup your outlay but who's in it for the money anyway?\nMay I suggest, my friend, that it is time for a break...a holiday...a long weekend by the sea?\nPlus I sometimes think the whole lit mag submission thing is an evil plot devised to keep writers distracted, bitching and miserable (like most need help in that area...). Are the editors twisted dealers...here's a high...no, you don't want that...here's a few lows...you're desperate, you want more don't you etc.\nI only sometimes think that. Mostly I think about other wider subjects!\nAnd saying that 'ink, sweat and tears' is good. Really varied. And I like your pigs. They fly!\nI was at an anniversary mass last year and the 'Legion' story was read out. You hear better readings during the weekdays, Sunday is like a Bible Greatest Hits.\nI think it's a great story and the line you quoted, \"\"My name is Legion,\" he replied, \"for we are many.\"\", is a completely killer line.\nI like your poem. In the version I heard, the little piggies certainly toppled over the cliff and that is as it should be.\nAh, holidays Rachel, now there's a subject. My family was never big on holidays and, as I started to get older, holidays became projects and this continued into my working life. The real issue is an inability to relax. When I was about twenty I took on a hobby, comic collecting, to try and do something which didn't involve me bent over a desk (no computers back then \u2013 Christ, I feel old) but I really don't do anything these days that isn't in front of a computer; all I do is change machine from time to time. As for a weekend by the sea, I be knackered by the time I got to the train station.\nAs for the whole submission thing\u2026 we just have to rise above it. There are plenty of magazines out there. Just keep you database/spreadsheet up-to-date and check it routinely. It's easy to blink and months have passed. I've added a column for turnaround, which I never used to have but some of these sites tell you up front not to expect anything for several months. I don't get it. I don't need to get it. This is the way the world is.\nAnd, Ken, yeah, the Bible has some damn good lines but that one's right up there. I have to say when I was looking for a bible to quote online I was surprised by the number of translations that show the pigs running down a hill. That really lacks dramatic impact. Now, chucking themselves off a cliff \u2026 sheer Hollywood. It just struck me that being ex-angels they might've forgotten that swine (much filthier than pigs) don't have wings and that's a pure Wile E. Coyote moment.\nI'm with you all the way on this one: I think it is totally unacceptable for editors to simply not reply; I, too, feel old, have become my father; I find meaning has changed and prefer the old reality to the new; and I am steeped in the language and myths of the Old and New Testaments - which I am in no worry sorry about. Sorry, though Jena, can't agree that 32 is old... 32? You're joking! I can double that and then some before I submitted anything. You're at the height of your powers.\nMy big beef, though, is poetry comptitions, the business of \"filters\", poetry \"experts\" who decide what the judges get to see.\nGood read. Yes, the irony is incredible. I'd suggest you start simultaneous submitting right away. You're not getting any younger and life is too short. If some editor somewhere bans you because you had a piece accepted elsewhere and you had to pull out, I say his loss. And you can also submit to journals that don't mind SSs. Poet's Market and Duotrope's both list that feature and it's helpful.\nOn another note, I appreciate the dilemma you spoke of concerning publishing online. That's why I've taken to re-publishing everything that makes it into \"print\" online on my own properties. That way, I control it and it will be there as long as I want it to be, which at this point I'm planning to be another 40 years.\nYes, rise above it...I typed that to someone only the other week! There is so much more to life than poetry magazines...\nMostly I just don't do much submitting any more (a little...not much). There are other ways to get poems out and about and energy and time are limited. Likewise competitions - now and again when the urge takes me I send something off (sometimes even a rhyming poem even though I know with that I may as well burn the entry fee...it's a weird kind of protest...useless really but there you go...a bit like shouting over the cliff 'poems can still rhyme you know' as the pigs crash to the ground...).\nAh, Dave, age, yes, and at 49 I shouldn't be feeling nearly as old as I do despite how much I've overworked myself over the years. And yet I do. I expected a good few years get before my body started to object, so, Jena, you make the most of the energy you have right now.\nAllen, I suppose I'm in an enviable position in that I have so much material which hasn't been published so I've never really felt I had to resort to simultaneous submissions but I think I might do it with the stories because they appear to be the worst offenders. Oh, and good luck with that next forty years thing.\nAnd, Rachel, of course you've now published a lot of your poems yourself so no one hardly will touch your stuff which I've always scratched my head at. Back in the seventies I didn't have much of a clue and I sent the same poems out to every magazine I came across. In fact I'd have no real qualms about submitting my poems 'The Pathologist' and 'The Venereologist' to today's magazines despite the fact they've both been published in four different magazines in the seventies, because \u2013 seriously folks \u2013 most of the editors that'll be reading them today weren't born when I wrote them and they're still good poems. Good poetry doesn\u2019t go off and it deserves exposure.\nThe submission process feels like a necessary evil, becoming impatient I sent an email the other day to chase up a submission and was told that I'd make it into the final selection pile and that was why the delay which cheered me up no end even if they don't publish my poems, so no news could indeed be good news!\nYes...some would call it shooting yourself in the foot but really it's a different cliche (different strokes for, well, you know...). It just suits me to have everything on my website - that's the kind of girl I am, open all hours! Some magazines and sites don't mind that and still want to include poems of mine and really...they're the ones I want to work with most of the time anyway. We all have our ways of working, of approaching publication and dissemination.\nAs for the holiday... I think your readers may have to come and kidnap you Jim and take you away from it all. We'll take Carrie too of course.\nYes, it's not only frustrating but downright rude--however, it is a \"buyer's market\" as my mom would say, so what are you going to do? Not submit? Part of the frustration I feel is that I \"play by the rules\" and I have to \"pull the story\" before I can submit it elsewhere. And yes, I usually don't get a reply to the \"pull e-mail\" either!\nIt's always been bad, long response times, etc. for any submissions (inc. agents) but I've noticed with the internet subs that they are more prone to NO response.\nOf course those subs are easier, cheaper and quicker, too.\nIf you think the non-responses are bad, you should see how many literary agents just come out and tell you they won't respond unless they're interested. You never know if the e-mail to them even went through.\nI SO feel your pain, especially as I've got a short story I want to start submitting around.\nSorlil, we're all in the same boat, but at least you've had a positive response to your reminder, well positive-ish.\nRachel, the other thing, of course, is attracting more people to your site. As for kidnapping\u2026 you're assuming once you got me away from my PC everything would be fine. Remember, I'm old school, when I started the home PC was still years off. I remember (and a part of me misses) those days and it would be easy to return to them.\nConda, yes, playing by rules. It feels a bit like damned-if-you-do, damned-if-you-don't doesn't it? I do appreciate the whole e-mail sub thing through.\nAnd, Susan, it's not so much pain as a pain in the neck. But we persist. We persist.\nNow I'm starting to worry that you are actually connected to the PC... as in plugged in. Are you a PC-related device? An experiment escaped from silicon valley? An illusion? Oh my goodness...it's Jonathan Payne that's real and you're a projection or something...(can't think of a more technical term and my tech advisor is still in bed).\nMaybe I need more sleep too!\nAs for getting people to a website...I don't do high-powered marketing or anything. I'm going more for the slow build...I'm not in a hurry particularly (to be what? To gain what? I'm just fiddling away here...rambling along...no desire to join any international literary circuit or anything...). Plus sometimes I'm surprised who has visited the site...people I meet through all walks of life...and I like just having it all there so people can go back if they like something, not if they don't. There's so much hype in our world just now (and I worked in advertising briefly - horrible business) and I can't get worked up about joining in. Not too much anyway.\nIt's not hype, Rachel, it's advertising. The word 'hype' says it all - it's hyper - what I'm on about is commonsense drawing of attention to yourself. You make comments on other sites and every one of those is an advert, a link to your site. Your ideal readers are out there looking and they don't even know you exist. Whenever I do a decent post (not just an 'Aggie and Shuggie') I make an entry on YearBlook, LitMixx and the Just Write blog carnival; it probably takes me about ten minutes but there are now three extra links to my site out there. And, remember, even if no one clicks on the links the links still count when the spiders come a'crawlin'.\nIf it's a really, really good link I'll drop Silliman an e-mail. My 'Beckett's Voice' post has had about 700 hits and counting and every one of those has the opportunity to stick around and become a regular reader. The whole \"If you build it they will come\" crap is exactly that. Even a guy sitting by the site of the road selling strawberries will have a sign saying \"Strawberries for Sale\" and the price per punnet just to save any potential customers the embarrassment of asking.\nSince I started my site just over a year ago I've had 30,000 visitors and okay some of those just clicked and left but a lot of 'em didn't; 25% of 'em come back for more. Less that 2,000 of those were in the first six months. You can see when the advertising cut in. I just joined a pile of blog directories and bided my time.\nOK,OK...I take back the 'hype'. Let's just say we all advertise ourselves in different ways then! You do a lot more web-based stuff than me...I do more going out and reading in public than you. Is that better?\n(I'm not going to do a smiley face because I don't like them any more than you do...but be aware that the intention is there!)\nYes, silence is a gross insult in an area where arrogance and insensitivity prevails. But for me the ultimate put-down is the terse response that, in so many words, says 'Please don't waste our time with this drivel'. It is, as Conda says, 'a buyer's market', but it's a market that is entirely dependent upon the producer and, in processing their submitted work, the editor should accord them the highest respect.\nI've never been one for working with my hands, Dick, but if it was bird-tables I produced rather than poems etc I'm not sure it would hurt so much if, when I sent out my sample, it came back with a \"REJECTED\" sticker stuck to its underside. It's the fact that my writing is not simply a product that hurts. I have never written a single word of fiction for a 'market'. I have never pretended for a moment that my writing was ever going to contribute significantly to my lifestyle. I write \u2013 as I would hope the best of all writers write \u2013 for myself. This is not a job, this IS my lifestyle. I am sharing a bit of me in much the same way as if I'd gone to the trouble to bake a cake for my friends rather that select one of Mr Kipling's. For my guests not to turn up would be considered rude; a phone call at the last minute would be something but to be sitting there with all my goodies laid out in front of me waiting to hear from them \u2026 well, I suppose we've all been there before.",

        "raw_content": "While in the 1970s Chicana/o art was largely defined by the prevalence of silkscreen posters and murals, the 1990s and early 2000s saw the emergence of digital art among Chicana/o artists. Los Angeles-based artist Alma Lopez has been at the forefront of this revolution. Her visually compelling, computer-aided montages have tackled deeply contested issues such as immigration, racism, religion, colonization, and queer identity, to cite just a few. In spite of being a talented painter and printmaker, with a BA and an MFA in art studio from the University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB), and University of California, Irvine (UCI), respectively, Lopez has gained most of her visibility from her digital media work. Scholars such as Luz Calvo and Reina Alejandra Prado Sald\u00edvar have identified Lopez\u2019s art as a Chicana feminist visual discourse that thrives on the flexibility and dynamism of digital expression. This technology allows the artist seamlessly to combine preexisting imagery with her own original artwork and photography.\nExcerpt from Herrera-Sobek, Mar\u00eda, Guisela M.

Other authorities said the crash was closer to the airport.\nCardoza said in an interview that around 85 people had been injured, adding that a fire resulting from the accident had been put out. The civil protection agency said 37 people were hospitalized, while the state health department said two passengers were in a critical condition.\nThe operator of Durango airport, Grupo Aeroportuario Centro Norte , attributed the crash to bad weather conditions, citing preliminary reports. The plane had barely taken off when it felt like it was hit by a strong air current, one passenger told network Televisa.\n\u201cMany managed to leave the plane on foot,\u201d Cardoza said.\nAeromexico said on Twitter that Flight 2431 was an Embraer 190 bound for Mexico City when it crashed.\nA spokesman for the Mexican airline declined to disclose the passenger list or the nationalities of those on board.\nEmbraer did not immediately respond to requests for comment.\nMexican President Enrique Pena Nieto wrote on Twitter that he\nhad instructed the defence, civil protection and transportation ministries to aid in the response to the crash.\n\u0caa\u0cc8\u0cb2\u0cc6\u0c9f\u0ccd \u0c85\u0ca8\u0cbe\u0cb0\u0ccb\u0c97\u0ccd\u0caf:\u0ca6\u0cc1\u0cac\u0cc8 \u0cb5\u0cbf\u0cae\u0cbe\u0ca8 \u0ca8\u0cbf\u0cb2\u0ccd\u0ca6\u0cbe\u0ca3...",

        "raw_content": "Today's youth are different from any generation before them. They are exposed to digital technology in virtually all facets of their day-to-day existence...A communications revolution is shaping a generation and its world (Tapscott, 1998). Over the past 10 years the emergence of the Internet has revolutionised the world of media, information and communications and is rapidly becoming integrated into every aspect of modern life from healthcare to banking, travel to shopping. Increasingly young people are turning to the net as a tool for research and information on their personal issues, and particularly on sensitive issues such as sexual and mental health.\nHowever for the many benefits of Internet usage there are also many risks. It is a well-known fact that the Internet contains material that is inappropriate for minors and may cause offence to others. Access to inappropriate content is easier. Information that may be sourced online may be inaccurate. Viruses that affect computers can be transmitted in emails. Internet users' credit card details may be obtained illegally and misused. It is also feared that the computer screen may replace the schoolyard for bullies. These bullies may take peoples identities and misrepresent them online in addition to using the Internet to shame and bully others. Young people are a driving force behind the Internet and have catapulted services like Hotmail, MSN, Bebo, Facebook, MySpace and YouTube into the public consciousness\nWhat is Bebo?\nBebo is described as a \"social networking website, designed to allow friends to communicate in various ways. It has developed into an online community where users can post pictures, send messages to one another, and write Weblogs or \u2018Blogs'. 7 out of 10 young people in Ireland are registered on it.\nMany parents are very concerned about their child's use of Social Networking Sites such as Bebo. As a parent you need to understand the Internet and social networking sites by logging on to them and seeing what they are about. Educate young people about online bullying and how they can prevent it. Make young people aware that they are not anonymous online. Encourage young people to talk openly about online activities. Make your child more aware of the risks associated with things they sign up for, example reading what they are agreeing to when they sign up for something instead of ticking the check box to agree to T&C's. Encourage your child to have a private profile page, this ensures that only the people they accept as friends will be able to view their page.\nBebo can also be viewed by young people as an adult free zone, a place where they can talk to their peers about life in general and what they are up to. Young people can genuinely forget that the content they are posting can be viewed by others. For other young people using Bebo is a way to express themselves and to have fun with their friends.\nCyberbullying is serious and studies show that females are more likely to use this type of bullying than others. Cyberbullying is serious and needs to be dealt with as soon as possible. Remind young people about accepting people they don't know on to their profile, if they have a private profile only their friends can view their page. If they are receiving negative comments, upsetting emails etc., there is a temptation to respond immediately. Encourage young people not to reply to the comments/mails these should be kept for evidence. Passwords should be kept secret, so nobody else can access their profile. There is also a pre-screening option for comments posted on to their page so if they don't like what is being written they can delete it. Parents need to speak to their child and reassure them that their Internet use will not be curtailed if they inform them that they are being bullied online. Parents also need to act responsibly if they suspect that their child is using the Internet to bully someone else. Young people should be aware that they lose control of their photographs once they post them online. A photograph can be stored indefinitely on to anybody's hard drive. These photos can be used to embarrass a person at a later stage.\nThere are useful websites that parents can check out to inform them on the Internet and Social networking websites such as: www.webwise.ie , www.watchyourspace.ie , www.ncte.ie\nKDYS Tralee Youth Information Office has free copies of guides for parents on new media technologies, and guides for parents on social networking websites.\nYouth Information Co-ordinator\nKDYS, Denny Street, Tralee\nnorabutler@kdys.ie",

        "raw_content": "Feature Article: By Small and Simple Things\nRecently, I heard about the same young man twice in the course of a week. His story was amazing and inspiring, yet it\u2019s not a new story. It began in 1998.\nOne cold day in January, Ontario first-grader Ryan Hreljac ran home and begged his parents for $70 to build a well in Africa. That day, his teacher shared with the children the sad truth that many children were dying in Africa because they lacked clean water to drink. At first, his parents tried to put him off, saying that $70 was a lot of money and not thinking that he was serious.\nWhen Ryan kept bringing it up, his parents agreed to let him do extra chores around the house to earn the money. He began to slowly accumulate the money, doing odd jobs for his parents and grandparents at $2 a pop. Eventually, he had earned the $70, and went with his mother to the nonprofit agency WaterCan to deliver the money.\nDuring the conversation with the nonprofit\u2019s director, Ryan learned that $70 would only buy the handpump for the well, but that it would take $2000 to drill it. Determined, he simply said, \u201cI\u2019ll just do more chores, then.\u201d\nRyan\u2019s mother sent an email to family and friends, and through word of mouth and media publicity, Ryan\u2019s earnings were matched and exceeded by people who had caught his vision. When donations for Ryan\u2019s Well had passed $700, WaterCan called to ask where Ryan wanted his well to be placed. Ryan asked if they could put the well near a school so the kids at the school could have clean water. A site at Angolo Primary School in Northern Uganda was chosen.\nWhen Ryan was told that drilling equipment would allow many more wells to be drilled, he said, \u201cI\u2019ll raise the money for that drill. I want everyone in Africa to have clean water.\u201d The cost? $25,000.\nNine years and over $1.5 million dollars later, Ryan Hreljac is still raising money for clean water for all Africans. He has visited his first well several times, being greeted as a hero and a son and brother by the people of Angolo each time he comes. The Ryan\u2019s Well Foundation has built 254 wells in 11 countries, serving 425,335 people and saving lives. Ryan, although shy, accepts invitations to speak and appear in the media in order to further his vision.\nRyan is an inspiring kid. He\u2019s now a lanky teenager, shy and a little embarrassed by attention, but he\u2019s an amazing teen with passion and a vision. He didn\u2019t look at the greatness of the task and think, \u201cThere\u2019s no way I could do that.\u201d He simply looked at the first goal and said, \u201cHow can I make this happen?\u201d And from there, his vision grew.\nOne of my favorite quotes from scripture is this: \u201cBy small and simple things are great things brought to pass; and small means in many instances doth confound the wise\u201d (Alma chapter 37, verse 6). Ryan continues to confound the \u201cwise\u201d men and women of the world by what he\u2019s able to do. He\u2019s a catalyst for others to see their capacity for taking action and making a difference. Great things are coming to pass because of his vision. In Ryan\u2019s own words: \u201cLittle people can do big jobs\u2026 only if you try.\u201d\nWhen you find yourself feeling overwhelmed because of the greatness of a task in front of you, dig deep to find your vision. Identify that first \u201csmall and simple thing\u201d that you can do to make it happen. For Ryan, it was vacuuming the floor and washing the windows. What will it be for you?\nRead more about Ryan and Ryan\u2019s Well Foundation at:\nhttp://www.ryanswell.org/\nhttp://www.readersdigest.ca/mag/2001/01/ryan.html\nhttp://rw3.ryanswell.ca/downloads/ryanstory.html",

        "raw_content": "Kids\u2019 Coupon Book Money to be Spent on Lavish Banquet?\nMike McMillan, East Knox County\u2019s member of the board of education, found an odd item on the last meeting agenda. Making a few inquiries, McMillan discovered the school system proposed to spend $15,000 on a banquet to be held at the Knoxville Convention Center. The funding source appalled McMillan; it was to be drawn from the school system\u2019s share of coupon book sales.\nJust about everybody in Knox County has seen small children trudging along streets to sell the books or have been accosted by friends and neighbors selling coupon books for their kids. Two dollars of every coupon book comes back to the school system to do with as they please. Superintendent Bob Thomas evidently determined $15,000 of that money will go to sponsor a banquet honoring teachers of the year at every school in the county. During the last workshop session of the board of education, McMillan sharply questioned Clifford Davis, the chief of staff for Superintendent Thomas. The school system seems to be the only entity in town that has both a chief of staff and a chief operating officer, an innovation created by the former superintendent, Jim McIntyre.\nUnder questioning from McMillan, Davis admitted in the past the banquet was sponsored by a corporation. McMillan wondered why that was not the case any longer. Davis replied that the school system had been notified the corporate sponsor decided not to participate this year. McMillan then asked how long Davis had known a new sponsor had been needed, to which Davis responded he couldn\u2019t remember. McMillan asked if it had been longer than 30 days? Davis responded it had likely been longer than thirty days, but still, his memory failed him. Unable to hide his dismay, McMillan denounced the notion of spending coupon money for a banquet, even if the dinner was to honor teachers. McMillan, who spent his entire adult life as an educator, said while he certainly had no objection to honoring teachers, he thought it sent the wrong message to the public to expend money raised through the sale of coupon books for a banquet.\n\u201cNobody appreciates the job done by good teachers more than I do,\u201d McMillan said, \u201cbut while this seems like a small amount of money, and considering the amount spent by the school system annually, it is. Yet I think it sends the wrong message to parents and the public.\u201d\nMcMillan wondered why school officials did not more aggressively seek out a new corporate sponsor immediately upon being notified the former sponsor no longer wished to underwrite the event. Arrangements were being made by the school system for 500 people to attend, while each school selects a \u201cteacher of the year,\u201d each of whom is allowed to invite two guests. McMillan figures that would account for around 300 people and wondered why the school system didn\u2019t resort to having guests pay for their own dinners before dipping into coupon book sales.\n\u201cEvidently that was an idea never considered by the administration,\u201d McMillan said wryly.\n\u201cThere are parents all across the county who are being asked to contribute money toward buying school supplies, like paper towels and copy paper,\u201d McMillan said. \u201cConsidering that, I think there will be some parents outraged by the notion of the school system using $15,000 for a big party.\u201d\nThe school system spends more than half a billion dollars annually in Knox County alone. Two-thirds of every tax dollar spent in Knox County goes to the school system. McMillan, a former county commissioner, says he believes every member of the Board of Education has a responsibility to taxpayers as much as children, parents, and teachers. The school system has been under fire recently, in large measure for things having to do with money. The school system has been going through an embarrassing scandal related to the CTE program after nobody in the administration seemed to realize that $450,000 more or less disappeared. That in spite of the fact the head of the program had been the subject of an official reprimand and a scathing report from the Tennessee Comptroller\u2019s office. The matter is now under criminal investigation.\n\u201cThe truth is, over the years, the school system hasn\u2019t gotten a lot of scrutiny in how it spends taxpayer money,\u201d McMillan said. \u201cThat certainly hasn\u2019t helped with either transparency or accountability.\u201d\nMcMillan reminded The Focus while still serving as superintendent, Jim McIntyre had a habit of overspending, while constantly seeking higher taxes from the county commission. McIntyre\u2019s overspending brought a reaction from Mayor Tim Burchett and the county commission in the form of a Memorandum of Understanding, which was designed to keep the school system\u2019s spending within its own budget.\n\u201cPeople have a right to expect the school system to allocate its resources wisely and well,\u201d McMillan stated. \u201cInvoking children at every opportunity is disgusting, especially when the school system is taking $15,000 for a big party after the kids have worked so hard to sell coupon books. I wonder how many people would have bought a coupon book if they had known that?\u201d\nThe Knoxville Focus for Monday, November 6, 2017",

        "raw_content": "Posted August 14, 2018 January 4, 2019 tina\nThere is nothing quite like rock music and I say that as somebody who has loved the style all my life. The amazing guitar solos, loud drums, and raspy voices are really spellbinding. There is no doubt that a night at a rock concert would be an amazing one. Let\u2019s take a look at some of the best rock hits of the 90s so that you have some awesome tunes to add to your playlist.\nKurt Cobain is one of the greats and while he is gone, he will never be forgotten. One of the most well-known hits from the band is \u201csmells like teen spirit\u201d, its grungy style and amazing lyrics will really get you thinking. Put this track on when you are going through a whole range of emotions and you will become one with the music.\nGuns \u2018N Roses \u2013 November rain\nOne of the most amazing bands that have ever graced the world and you are going to need your raincoat woman for this one because the title of the song is November rain and it was released in 1991. It is a very long song, at around 9 minutes in length but it will keep you hooked from start to finish. The guitar solo on this song is amazing and takes real talent and let\u2019s not even get started on the vocals of Axl Rose himself.\nThis love song by Foo Fighters is absolutely beautiful. Grohl is an absolutely amazing musician and the band members come together to create a track that will always be a classic. The vocals are absolutely flawless, the drumming is out of this world and the riffs are one of a kind. Put this track on the next time you have a romantic evening in planned and it\u2019s guaranteed to be a big hit.\nThis might not be the most well known Greenday song since they became a little more well known but in my opinion, it\u2019s definitely one of the best. Basket case tells a tragic tale, the song is upbeat with some really funny lyrics. Billie Joe Armstrong is a god in the world of rock and this track really helps show off his capabilities.\nRage against the machine is an amazing band and no list of best songs from the 90s would be complete without these guys. The lyrics on this song are absolutely amazing and the instrumentals are something else. This is quite an underrated song that is definitely worth listening to so that you can see its potential for yourself.",

        "raw_content": "ADVENTURES IN PLYMPTOONS (a film review by Mark R. Leeper)\nCAPSULE: Many animators make films that give the impression that anything could happen. But Bill Plympton's cartoons (a.k.a. Plymptoons) make that what-could-happen the anythingest. Bill Plympton makes reality-pulverizing animated films. His friends, his peers, and some celebrities delve into Plympton's life and his art in this documentary study of the life and art of Bill Plympton. Rating: high +1 (-4 to +4) or 6/10\nI started trying to characterize Bill Plympton by arguing with myself how to describe him. I was going to characterize him just saying he was \"anarchic.\" Well, taken literally that means wanting to escape the restrictions of government. But Plympton's cartoons are not at all political. Really what I meant was that he was escaping the usual self-imposed restrictions of the animated film medium. But there are many cartoonists who do that. Well, perhaps what he is refusing is the physical reality of the world. But when the Coyote runs off a cliff and does not fall for several seconds that is counter to reality too. But clearly when a Plymptoon has the individual features of a face run around the head like cockroaches on a kitchen floor and then the head just pops off, this is a profoundly deeper form of anarchy. (Actually that film, \"Your Face\", earned him the first of his two Oscar nominations.) Plympton attacks our assumptions that nobody even realized were assumptions.\nADVENTURES IN PLYMPTOONS is not just a collection of Plymptoons (his animations), though we do see plenty of them. It is an anarchic study of who this fellow Bill Plympton is. ADVENTURES IN PLYMPTOONS tells the history of who he is going back to his getting into trouble for the salacious campaign posters he created for his high school student body President campaign. (Okay, there he was political. Just not very.)\nIn interviews friends and celebrities talk about Plympton's past and his creations. The celebrities (like Keith Carradine, Ed Begley Jr., Terry Gilliam, Matthew Modine, and Al Yankovic) are there too frequently only for attempted humor. Peers (like Ralph Bakshi) and friends have more interesting things to say. The interviews are illustrated with classic Plympton cartoons and home movies.\nPlympton is the dean of independent animation and we hear in the interviews how that was not his plan. He had hoped to be hired by Disney Studios and would work for the giant (or is it the Mouse?). His plans went badly askew when he got a million-dollar offer from Disney. Suddenly he found that he did not want to give up his independence and have someone else telling him what to do. So with mixed emotions he remained an independent filmmaker.\nPlympton, we are told, hand-makes his cartoons, and they look it. His usual technique is to draw each frame without aid of computer. Still, we hear he is fast both in getting his ideas and in implementing them in realized animated films.\nLike the Plymptoons themselves, this documentary directed by Alexia Anastasio is uneven, slightly out of balance, made on the cheap side, and has some rough edges to show for it. But the material is definitely compelling.\nThe film has ample examples of the anarchic ideas of Plympton. One of his \"Guard Dog\" animations has the title beast deciding that a squirrel has homicidal intentions toward the dog's unsuspecting master. That cute exterior and fluffy tail hides the mind of a pure evil genius and an arsenal of unsuspected weapons. Here at last is an explanation if why dogs bark at squirrels. We can see what is going on in the crazy mind of the squirrel. Or more accurately we can see what is going on in the crazy mind of man with a unique genius for bringing impossible ideas out from his subconscious and onto the theater screen. I rate ADVENTURES IN PLYMPTOONS a high +1 on the -4 to +4 scale or 6/10. The film will be out on DVD on September 25 from Cinema Libre.\nWhat others are saying: http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/adventures_in_plymptoons/",

        "raw_content": "The Thing Is Back\nWhat a week. First Theo comes back. Now this thing is back. Die-hard readers (reader?) of this blog remember how I said how I felt like the coolest person on Earth whenever me and Chan would casually walk up to this thing and start pushing it from either side until it started spinning on its base, to the delight of tourists. Tonight, we were down in that area, and Chan yelled, \"It's back!\" So we went right up to it, and did our little spinning trick. Only this time, some random dude grabbed a corner and pushed along with us. It was great.\nIt was also a very Red Sox hatty day in the city. It culminated with the sighting of an ultra-rare Pawtucket hat.\nBig weekend for mom's book. Both the New York Times and the Boston New York Times, I mean, the Globe, will have a review on Sunday. Page 19 of the Times Book Review. Boston people, you'll have to leaf through to find it. That name again is Mr. Plow. (Where \"Mr. Plow\" equals \"Girls of Tender Age: A Memoir\")\nHe's back! Praise Gedman!\nAnd it's in press release form, so it must be true.\nUnrelated: Bill Simmons recently wrote \"...while CBS played \"Jane Says\" by Jane's Addiction (welcome to the '90s, CBS!)\" and then proceeded to brag about his musical knowledge. Please note that \"Jane Says\" first appeared in live form on Jane's Addiction's self-titled debut album, released in 1987. The studio version was first heard on their Nothing's Shocking album, from 1988.\nThe Domicile That Dunbar Developed\n(New people: click here.)\n\"Yo, Ant!\"\nOn New Year's Eve, after having seen enough Twilight Zones, I went to bed around 1 AM. While I was sound asleep, the phone rang. I could hear someone leaving a message, but ignored it. A half-hour later, it rang again. I picked it, and some girl was asking for Anthony. I told her she had the wrong number. She said, \"Okay, bye.\" Not, mind you, \"Oh my god, I'm so sorry for waking you up twice in the middle of the night.\"\nAnyway, I woke up the next morning to hear the above message. It's funny how she loves this dude so much but can't get his number right in two tries. She was also so drunk she said 11:30 as the time at first, when it was obviously after midnight on New Year's Eve, meaning she'd not only gotten the phone number wrong, but the year as well.\nI like how she classes the whole thing up with the \"one love\" line at the end.\nNote: If you don't like the F word or if your kids are in the room, don't play the message.\nSome Pun That Uses Cell/Sell\nLately, when a person is on their cell phone, and they get in my way on the sidewalk due to the fact that they're completely oblivious to the world around them, as I pass them, I'll say \"pay attention\" right into their ear.\nBut the worst part about these people is not their rudeness or their selfishness, but the fact that when I turn around to give them a glare after I've told them to pay attention, they're still oblivious, and I don't even get the satisfaction of them acknowledging the fact that I stood up to their ridiculous behavior.\n\"I don't know about you, I ain't going to study war anymore.\"",

        "raw_content": "Fulbrights or Halfwits?\nToday in class we learned tons about Fulbrights.\nI would be tempted to say we learned everything there is to know about Fulbrights, but clearly that is not true. Our instructor, who has worked on them for 15ish years, said she still learns something else about the program regularly or realizes that there is a lot she doesn't know.\nWhich suggests to me it is unknowable.\nI did have one success today. I realized last night that both of our cars had inspections stickers that expired today. I took my wife to work and got her car inspected on my way to class. I was only 10 minutes late.\nThen at lunch, I went home, swapped cars, took mine in and got it inspected.\nI got back to FSI with 20 minutes to spare.\nI am definitely liking this schedule!\nStatement by Ambassador Susan E. Rice, U.S. Permanent Representative to the United Nations, on Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender Pride Month\nUSUN PRESS RELEASE #128\nStatement by Ambassador Susan E. Rice, U.S. Permanent Representative to the United Nations, on Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender (LGBT) Pride Month, June 2010\nAs the United States celebrates Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender (LGBT) Pride Month, I join President Obama in reaffirming our commitment to the fundamental rights of LGBT people everywhere.\nThe Obama Administration has taken active steps to honor this commitment, starting in the federal workforce. Last summer, the President extended benefits to same-sex domestic partners of U.S. Government federal employees. I am pleased that Secretary Clinton\u2019s extension of benefits for overseas State Department employees has served as a model for similar changes on behalf of American LGBT staff of the UN Secretariat. Thanks to this work, the partners and families of many hard-working Americans serving abroad may now receive the benefits, training, and allowances that are increasingly the standard for world-class international civil servants. I am very proud of the contributions of LGBT employees in the foreign affairs agencies of the U.S. Government, and am pleased to see that these actions will support them as they continue their good work.\nThe LGBT community still faces hostility in many parts of the world. In some nations, sexual orientation is considered a crime, and punished with unspeakable violence and humiliation. Public pride is sometimes met with brutal, state-sanctioned beatings and arrests. Members of organizations fighting to advance LGBT rights often do so at considerable risk to their safety and their livelihoods.\nHere at the United Nations, the Obama Administration last year supported a historic General Assembly declaration condemning human rights violations based on sexual orientation. The United States Mission to the UN is, among other efforts, working to reverse an attempt by some members of the NGO Committee of the Economic and Social Council to deny UN consultative status to the International Gay and Lesbian Human Rights Commission, an organization whose widely respected advocacy and research has given a voice to those who have long suffered in silence.\nAs LGBT Pride Month comes to a close, I am proud to join in heralding the invaluable contributions of the LGBT community to communities and countries the world over, and our unwavering commitment to the rights of all people.\nOne of the programs I think the Department in general and public diplomacy in particular does really well is the International Visitors Leadership Program (IVLP).\nIVLP is designed to identify future leaders in a country and bring them to the United States for a visit. The idea is to find them early and introduce them to US culture, government, etc. One returning IV said, \"It is impossible to participate in this program and not be a friend of the U.S. forever.\"\nSo last week we learned about the program, and today, we all participated in \"openings,\" or the first meetings for new IVs. I was alone with an individual IV. She is young, but clearly super active. I am not sure she sleeps. Getting to meet her and talk about the work she is doing in her country (which for her privacy I won't detail here) reminded me once again why I am glad to be in the Foreign Service.\nDid I mention I really like the \"foreign\" part?\nIn my last three years in the Department, I have not had any interaction with non-Americans. So it was really nice to remember what that is like and why this work is so cool.\nLabels: IVLP\nFast Times at FSI High\nI have spent the last week embracing what will be my life for the next year.\nI am a student again.\nI am currently taking the Cultural Affairs Officer course. I am enjoying the course, though I am disappointed with the new building. I can't imagine why they would build new classrooms and make them \"dumb\" classrooms. As in, no internet hookups, no computers, no smart board.\nSo we are right back to killing trees for all our copies. Right back to not having access to the great (I assume) sharepoint site they have created for the course.\nThis isn't the instructors' fault, of course. We are in this room because the class is too big for the room they usually use. Though really, I thought that was why they had seat limits on the course. Maybe the registrar's office didn't notice that they had gone over the maximum number of students by 14!\nBut really, we are in the brand new building. The one the Secretary cut the ribbon on week before last. And we get a projector and screen? Really? That's disappointing.\nWhat isn't disappointing is the class, which is so far better than I expected (okay, except for the grants part, which is important but really really boring). And further, I am really excited to know that I have two friends going out at the two otehr PAOs in the Baltics, and we are already brainstorming ways to work together on some really cool projects. I think my job in Estonia is going to rock!\nThere was a bit of unpleasantness in the class for me this week, but not something I can discuss here at the moment. Maybe later.\nNext week, we get to meet some of the newest international visitors. I'm excited about that too! It has been three long years since I have gotten to engage the \"foreign\" part of my Foreign Service!\nPride Reception with Congresswoman Tammy Baldwin\nJoin GLIFAA and Congresswoman Tammy Baldwin in the Delegates Lounge to hear about LGBT issues on Capitol Hill.\nLocation: Delegates Lounge (Across from the Loy Henderson Auditorium)\nMain State\nLabels: GLIFAA, Tammy Baldwin\nCNN: Obama, Clinton vow to defend gay rights, adding 'it's not who we are as Americans'\nHere is CNN's updated story:\nObama, Clinton vow to defend gay rights, adding 'it's not who we are as Americans'\nWashington (CNN) -- President Obama and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton pledged to end violence and discrimination against gays and lesbians at home and abroad Tuesday, as the Obama administration moves to extend further benefits to gays working in the federal government.\n\"It's not right, it's not who we are as Americans, and we're going to put a stop to it,\" Obama told a raucous White House reception honoring Gay and Lesbian Pride Month.\nEarlier, Clinton received several standing ovations from a standing-room only crowd of several hundred during her address at an event co-hosted by the State Department's Office of Civil Rights and GLIFAA, the organization for Gays and Lesbians in Foreign Affairs Agencies.\n\"We are moving together in the right direction,\" said Clinton. \"We reaffirm our commitment to protect the rights of all human beings.\"\nThe White House event invited politicians and government officials as well as lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender American from across the country, including young people \"who have stood up for equality,\" said White House spokesman Shin Inouye.\nAt a similar event last year, six months after Obama took office, participants expressed frustration over what they called a lack of progress in confronting discrimination issues that the president had promised to resolve.\nThis time, Obama received loud applause, cheers and whistles as he cited steps his administration has taken, including a new hate crimes law, extending federal benefits to gay employees and a push for an employee discrimination bill.\nThe Obama administration is expected to announce Wednesday that gay workers will be able to take medical leave to care for the sick or newborn children of their same-sex partners as part of the Family and Medical Leave Act, which generally allows those working for companies with 50 or more employees to take 12 unpaid weeks off to care for newborns or children with serious health issues.\n\"And finally, we're going to end \"don't ask, don't tell,\" Obama said Tuesday of the policy that prohibits openly gay and lesbian soldiers from military service.\nA bill that would repeal the policy after a Pentagon review is completed in December is before Congress, the president noted.\n\"We have never been closer to ending this discriminatory policy, and I'm going to keep on fighting until that bill is on my desk,\" he said to cheers.\nAttending the event was Janice Langbehn of Lacey, Washington, who was denied hospital visitation rights when her partner of 18 years, Lisa Pond, was stricken with a fatal brain aneurysm while on vacation in Florida. Obama mentioned her story on Tuesday, calling the way she was treated \"wrong\" and \"cruel.\"\nEarlier, Clinton said she is asking embassies in Africa and elsewhere to report on rights of the local lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender communities. The State Department also is placing more attention on ensuring gays around the world have access to HIV/AIDS prevention and treatment, and providing grants to human rights activists who are persecuted either because they are gay or defend gay rights, she said.\n\"These dangers are not gay issues. This is a human rights issue,\" Clinton said. She drew more rousing applause when she declared \"human rights are gay rights and gay rights are human rights,\" a variation on the phrase she famously delivered in Beijing 10 years ago declaring \"women's rights are human rights.\"\nClinton said she is equally concerned about creating an environment at the State Department in which gay employees feel valued and \"can give 100 percent.\" That is why, she said, she supported offering equal benefits to same-sex partners of State Department employees, a move that encouraged Obama to authorize such benefits for gays throughout the federal government.\nShe noted the State Department also has made it easier for transgender people to change their passports and, for the first time, the agency's \"equal opportunity statement\" will include gender identity. It already includes sexual orientation.\nLabels: gay rights, GLIFAA, Hillary Clinton, LGBT employees, Obama\nI know almost nothing about soccer.\nI know I should. I know as a diplomat, I will spend most of my career in places where football involves a round, black and white ball. So I should know more about it.\nIn my defense, there were no soccer teams where I grew up. No way to play it. No way to watch it. Football meant something else entirely.\nI have been trying to learn more, as my colleagues have been so enthralled with the world cup. I have even watched a little, and have been trying to get my wife, who played the game as a kid, to explain something to me. But I am still not much further along than my cousin's explanation: ball. net. kick ball into net.\nBut today, I had a pretty awesome soccer moment.\nMy grants class (please give me pencils to poke out my eyes) let out at 11:30 for lunch, and I headed over the the FSI cafeteria to eat. The cafeteria was full, and all those TVs I thought only played BNET (the State Department channel) or CNN were on Univision.\nAll eyes were transfixed on the game, USA vs. Algeria.\nI grabbed a soda and a seat figuring there was nothing else to do but watch too, since it was too hot to eat outside and no one was talking. It is the quietest I have ever seen the FSI cafeteria.\nExcept when Team USA was doing well, and you could hear the pitch rise a bit. Or when the Algerians did something we didn't like, when there was a sort of muttering in unison.\nTeam USA scored the only goal of the game!\nEveryone was on their feet as the cafeteria erupted in cheers.\nAnd then, in unision, these folks who have all devoted their lives to the service of the country, started chanting: USA! USA!\nOkay, except for the Arabic teachers from Algeria.\nI admit I got a little teary eyed (I do at the national anthem too...what can I say?).\nIt was a pretty good place to be today.\nOh, and for you more junior officers out there, particularly the one taking cable writing today: if you miss a bit of class, just walk back in and say nothing. Your instructor will forget pretty quickly that you were late. But whatever you do, don't whisper to your instructor, who would have rather been watching the game, that USA won 1-0. He'll remember you, and that you were late, and not in a good way!\nGLIFAA Smart Power - Women's Pride Happy Hour!\nAll are welcome to join foreign affairs agency women for a special Women's event at 15 Ria @ the Doubletree Hotel.\nLocation: 15 Ria\nMetro: McPherson Square or Dupont Circle\nTranscript: Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton At An Event Celebrating Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender (LGBT) Month\nAt An Event Celebrating Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender (LGBT) Month\nLoy Henderson Auditorium\nSECRETARY CLINTON: Thank you. Thank you all very much. (Applause.) Thank you. Gee, let\u2019s do this every week. (Laughter.) It\u2019s great after a hard week to tell you how delighted I am to join with all of you from the State Department and USAID and indeed from departments across our government and many guests who are here in the State Department celebrating Pride Month.\nAnd the purpose of this occasion is to recognize with gratitude the contributions made by LGBT members of the State Department family every single day. We celebrate the progress that is being made here in our own country toward advancing the rights of LGBT Americans, and we recognize that there is still a lot of work to be done but that we are moving together in the right direction. And we reaffirm our commitment to protect and advance the rights of all human beings, as Cheryl just said, of members of the LGBT community around the world. I want to thank Administrator Raj Shah who we are so delighted, is leading USAID into a very positive future. I want to thank Eric Schwartz, who has traveled tirelessly on behalf of his bureau here at the State Department, dealing with population, refugees, migration. And I want to thank Bob Gilchrist, the outgoing GLIFAA president, for his leadership.\nI look around this room and there are not only familiar faces, but there are some longtime friends whom I have had the great personal pleasure of knowing over the years. And I must say that knowing my friends who are here, and assuming much about many of you, I know that this occasion is really part of a deeply personal effort that has impacted lives and has helped to create, as Cheryl said, more space and time for people to lead their own lives. And people in this room \u2013 I know from experience \u2013 have marched in parades and demonstrations; have lobbied our government and other governments to overturn discriminatory laws; have demonstrated courage, both in public and private, to confront hatred and intolerance; and have helped to build a national movement that reflects the diversity of America.\nI have been really moved and greatly motivated by the personal stories and the testimonies of so many whom I have known over so many years. Ten years ago, I was the first First Lady \u2013 that is often a phrase that I hear \u2013 I was the first First Lady to march in a Pride parade, and it was so much fun. (Applause.) And one or two of you marched with me and I am still grateful to you. (Laughter.) As a senator from New York, I was proud to co-sponsor the Employment Non-Discrimination Act; the Domestic Partnership Benefits and Obligations Act, which would grant equal benefits to same-sex domestic partners of federal employees; and the Matthew Shephard [sic] Local Law Enforcement Hate Crimes Prevention Act, which President Obama signed into law this year. (Applause.)\nNow, we, though, in the State Department have to continue the work that many of you have begun and many of you carry on around the world. And I\u2019m very proud that the United States, and particularly the State Department, is taking the lead to confront the circumstances that LGBT people face in just going about their daily lives. So as we enjoy today\u2019s celebration and as we mark the progress that has been truly remarkable \u2013 I know that when you\u2019re in the midst of a great movement of change it seems like it is glacial, but any fair assessment, from my perspective, having lived longer than at least more than 75 percent of you that I see in this room \u2013 (laughter) \u2013 is that it is extraordinary what has happened in such a short period of time.\nBut think about what\u2019s happening to people as we speak today. Men and women are harassed, beaten, subjected to sexual violence, even killed, because of who they are and whom they love. Some are driven from their homes or countries, and many who become refugees confront new threats in their countries of asylum. In some places, violence against the LGBT community is permitted by law and inflamed by public calls to violence; in others, it persists insidiously behind closed doors.\nThese dangers are not \u201cgay\u201d issues. This is a human rights issue. (Applause.) Just as I was very proud to say the obvious more than 15 years ago in Beijing that human rights are women\u2019s rights and women\u2019s rights are human rights, well, let me say today that human rights are gay rights and gay rights are human rights, once and for all. (Applause.)\nSo here at the State Department, we will continue to advance a comprehensive human rights agenda that includes the elimination of violence and discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity. We are elevating our human rights dialogues with other governments and conducting public diplomacy to protect the rights of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender persons.\nOur Bureau for Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor produces an annual Human Rights Report that include a section on how LGBT persons are treated in every country. And recently, that bureau announced a new grant to provide emergency aid to human rights defenders in Africa, South Asia, and the Middle East who are at risk, either because they work on these issues or because of their LGBT status.\nOur regional bureaus are working closely with our embassies on this issue. The Bureau of African Affairs has taken the lead by asking every embassy in Africa to report on the conditions of local LGBT communities. And I\u2019m asking every regional bureau to make this issue a priority. (Applause.)\nToday, we are joined by four human rights activists from Africa who are working to protect LGBT rights in their communities. I want to welcome them to the State Department and ask if they would stand: our four African activists. (Applause.) I thank you for the work you do, often in unfriendly, even dangerous circumstances, to advance the rights and dignity of all people.\nNow, the United States is also focused on threats facing LGBT refugees. Eric Schwartz is working to increase protection for refugees who face persecution because of their sexual orientation or gender identity. Dr. Eric Goosby, through the President\u2019s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief, PEPFAR, is working to ensure that HIV prevention, treatment, and care are provided to all members of the LGBT population. For example, in the greater Mekong sub-region, we support the Purple Sky Network, which helps protect the health of gay men and transgender people who are too often overlooked or excluded from lifesaving social services.\nAnd around the world, members of the U.S. Foreign Service continue to stand with LGBT communities in ways both large and small. There are two people who are not here that I want to mention and recognize, because they are indicative of both what people face as they fight for these rights and what our embassies and posts across the globe are doing to support them.\nIn Albania, a young man named Klodian Cela recently came out on a popular television program called Big Brother. Soon after, our ambassador, John Withers, went on television to publicly express support for this man. He visited his hometown and he invited him to an event at our Embassy, conveying to all Albanians that the United States supports his rights and respects his courage.\nIn Slovakia, at that nation\u2019s first ever Pride Parade last month, our charg\u00e9, Keith Eddins, marched to represent the United States. There were anti-gay protestors who became violent and the police used tear gas, which our charg\u00e9 and other diplomats were exposed to \u2013 a quite unpleasant experience, but in service to a just cause.\nSo as we continue to advance LGBT rights in other countries, we also must continually work to make sure we are advancing the agenda here.\nAt the State Department, USAID, and throughout the Administration, we are grateful for the contributions of all of our team. And I just want to say thank you, thank you to those of you who serve, thank you for doing so by being open and honest about who you are and helping others see the dignity and purpose of every individual. Our work is demanding and we need every person to give 100 percent. And that means creating an environment in which everyone knows they are valued and feels free to make their contribution.\nLast year, I received a petition with more than 2,200 signatures supporting equal benefits to same-sex partners. And I was delighted that soon after, the President signed an executive order to that effect. This month, the Bureau of Consular Affairs issued new regulations making it easier for transgender Americans to amend their passports, ensuring dignified and fair processing. And today, I\u2019m pleased to announce that for the first time, gender identity will be included along with sexual orientation in the State Department Equal Employee Opportunity Statement. (Applause.)\nNow, we know that a lot of work lies ahead, and I really want to challenge each and every one of you. Whether you\u2019re LGBT or not, if you\u2019re here, you obviously care about or at least were curious enough to come, and therefore are exhibiting an interest in what we are attempting to achieve here. And in looking at you and seeing a group of accomplished, successful, well-educated, professionally challenged people reminds me that many in our own country, let alone around the world, who are LGBT don\u2019t have those tools, don\u2019t have those assets to be able to speak for themselves, to stand up for themselves, to be in a position to claim who they are.\nI used to, when I represented New York, have the great joy and honor of traveling across New York state, so I could go to a Pride Parade in New York City and then I could be a few days later somewhere in upstate New York, where someone would take me aside after an event and whisper their fears about the life they led and wonder whether there was anything we could do. And I used to remind my very activist friends in the Pride movement that they were doing this not for themselves, because basically many of them were well enough off to be able to construct a life that would be fairly immune from the outside world, but they were doing it for so many others who did not have that opportunity, that luxury, if you will.\nWell, I still believe that. We\u2019ve come such a far distance in our own country, but there are still so many who need the outreach, need the mentoring, need the support, to stand up and be who they are, and then think about people in so many countries where it just seems impossible. So I think that each and every one of you not only professionally, particularly from State and USAID in every bureau and every embassy and every part of our government, have to do what you can to create that safe space, but also personally to really look for those who might need a helping hand, particularly young people, particularly teenagers who still, today, have such a difficult time and who still, in numbers far beyond what should ever happen, take their own lives rather than live that life. So I would ask you to please think of ways you can be there for everyone who is making this journey to defend not only human rights globally, but to truly defend themselves and their rights. The struggle for equality is never, ever finished. And it is rarely easy, despite how self-evident it should be. But the hardest-fought battles often have the biggest impact. So I hope that each and every one of us will recommit ourselves to building a future in which every person \u2013 every, single person can live in dignity, free from violence, free to be themselves, free to live up to their God-given potential wherever they live and whoever they are. And I thank you for being part of one of history\u2019s great moments.\nLabels: gay rights, Hillary Clinton, LGBT employees\nSecretary Clinton Adds Gender Identity to State's Non-Discrimination Clause\nToday's even with Secretary Clinton was just incredible. Hopefully, my teachers at FSI will forgive my brief absence, but boy was it worth it.\nThe big news, which we suspected would happen, was that she announced that she had added gender identity to the protected classes of the Department's non-discrimination clause. This is a great step!\nBut just in general, her speech was incredible. To have the Secretary of State address an audience of LGBT Foreign Service folks and allies was amazing. And the turnout was fabulous! More than 150 non-USG folks RSVP'd, and that doesn't include the USG folks who were there. The Loy Henderson Auditorium was standing room only...I would guess that there were at least 300 or more people there.\nParticularly moving, at least to me, was this: \"When you are in the midst of a great movement of change, it seems glacial. But it has been incredible what has been accomplished in so short a time....This is a human rights issue. Human rights are gay rights and gay rights are human rights!\"\nOkay, can I just say I love her?\nThere was good press coverage of the event, both mainstream and LGBT media. I'll post the coverage as I find it, but for now, here is the CNN story on the event:\nClinton pledges to defend gay rights at home and abroad\nWashington (CNN) -- Secretary of State Hillary Clinton pledged to end violence and discrimination against gays and lesbians at home and abroad Tuesday, as the Obama administration moves to extend further benefits to gays working in the federal government.\nClinton drew several standing ovations from the standing-room-only crowd of several hundred during her address at an event co-hosted by the State Department's Office of Civil Rights and GLIFAA, the organization for Gays and Lesbians in Foreign Affairs Agencies. June has been recognized as Gay and Lesbian Pride Month.\nSpeaking about the linkages between gay rights and U.S. foreign policy, Clinton said she is asking embassies in Africa and elsewhere to report on rights of the local lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender communities. The State Department is also placing more attention on ensuring gays around the world have access to HIV/AIDS prevention and treatment and providing protection for LBGT refugees.\nThe department is also providing grants to human rights activists who are persecuted either because they are gay or defend gay rights, she said.\nClinton said she is equally concerned about creating an environment at the State Department in which gay employees feel valued and \"can give 100 percent.\" That is why, she said, she supported offering equal benefits to same-sex partners of State Department employees, a move that encouraged President Barack Obama to authorize such benefits for gays throughout the federal government.\nShe noted the State Department also has made it easier for transgender people to change their passports and, for the first time, the agency's \"equal opportunity statement\" will include gender identity and sexual preference.\nObama and Vice President Joe Biden also were to attend a gay pride event later Tuesday at the White House.\nHere are some links to more coverage:\nWashington Blade: Clinton equates LGBT rights to human rights\nGLAA Forum: Clinton speaks at State Dept.

Participants are encouraged to provide pertinent information about themselves, their experiences and their career goals.\nThe Department\u2019s student internship programs provide a key source of potential candidates who have an interest in, and are qualified, to become future Department employees. Naturally, HR/REE wants to strengthen and maintain its connections to this group, fostering and mentoring a pool of candidates from which to obtain successful recruits. HR/REE developed an intern engagement strategy to assist in maintaining these connections. The foundation of this strategy is INTERNational Connections.\nThere are currently over 1,200 active users; we\u2019re planning to send an email invitation to over 5,000 former Student Programs participants (see email invite from Secretary Clinton attached). We also have an aggressive content plan which will ensure that there are regular (almost daily) updates to keep users engaged.\nOne of our immediate goals is to increase the amount of user participation on INTERNational Connections, particularly on the forums. As with any online community, it\u2019s challenging to get users to be the first to participate on a new platform. We\u2019re hoping to leverage the many interns throughout the Department with whom you have personal relationships and encourage them to start or join a thread on the discussion boards.\nAkash Suri, the new Content Manager for INTERNational Connections, has provided a few ideas for posts that you can share with interns, Co-ops, Stay-in-Schoolers, Pickerings, and any other Student Program participants to help us jump-start the community.

The Department of State was one of the highest scorers, with an overall grade of B.\nA panel of six LGBT activist leaders were asked in April to give a grade to the Obama administration thus far on LGBT issues. Three panelists gave the administration a \u201cD,\u201d two gave it a \u201cB,\u201d and one a \u201cC.\u201d Keen News Service decided to take a look at eight major federal departments and apply a similar grading system.\nThe result was strikingly similar to that which emerged from the April 22 LGBT Leadership Townhall panel, hosted by Sirius XM Radio\u2019s Michelangelo Signorile Show. The panel\u2019s average came to 1.8 on a scale that gives 1 point for a D and 4 for an A. Looking at the Obama administration\u2019s major departments, the KNS analysis came up with a 2.0.\nThe Departments of State and Housing and Urban Development each earned a \u201cB\u201d from KNS, a grade given for taking significant steps toward equal rights for LGBT people, even if some inequities remain. Health and Human Services and the Office of Personnel Management each earned a \u201cC,\u201d given for taking some steps toward equal rights and making no efforts to obstruct equality, while many or major inequities remain within that department\u2019s purview. And Defense, Justice, and Education each earned a \u201cD,\u201d for taking few steps toward improving equal rights and making some efforts to obstruct such rights.\nNone of the departments warranted an \u201cA,\u201d for taking significant and comprehensive steps toward improving equal rights for LGBT people\u2014or an \u201cF,\u201d for doing nothing to improve equal rights for LGBT people and also taking steps to block such equality.\nDEPARTMENT OF STATE (DOS) GRADE: B\nThe DOS said it would provide the same benefits to the same-sex partners of foreign service employees sent abroad as it does to opposite-sex spouses, including diplomatic passports, use of U.S. medical facilities, emergency evacuation, and training at the Foreign Service Institute.\nTwo major items are not covered, how- ever: health care and retirement benefits. President Obama, in a memo requesting partner benefits for federal employees, stated that federal law prevents his administration from extending those benefits.\nDOS has additionally changed its policy so that a person in a legal same-sex marriage can apply for a new passport using his or her taken (married) surname.\nSecretary of State Hillary Clinton has publicly decried Uganda\u2019s proposed harsh anti-gay bill and spoken directly with Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni about it.\nKarl Wycoff, Deputy Assistant Secretary of State, testified at a January House hearing on the Ugandan bill and said the U.S. embassy in Uganda has been working with the Ugandan government and local gay and lesbian groups to stop the legislation. The DOS also issued a statement condemning the Malawi government\u2019s sentencing of a couple\u2014a gay man and a transgender woman\u2014to 14 years of hard labor for \u201ccarnal knowledge against the order of nature\u201d and \u201cgross indecency.\u201d\nThe DOS worked with President Obama to appoint David Huebner as U.S.Ambassador to New Zealand in December 2009. Huebner is the first openly gay person to be appointed to an ambassadorship in the Obama administration, and the third in U.S. history.\nI have to say that I find it unfair to grade the Department down for not offering benefits that it is not legally allowed to offer. Secretary Clinton addressed every inequility faced by LGBT employees and their families that it was within her power to affect. And her staff continues to meet with GLIFAA regularly to address any issues arising. I'd have given us an A.\nDepartment Notice: Pride Month Celebration with Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton\nPride Month Celebration with Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton\nPlease join Gays and Lesbians in Foreign Affairs Agencies (GLIFAA) and the Office of Civil Rights (S/OCR) on:\nFor a discussion on LGBT Human Rights and U.S. Foreign Policy with opening remarks by\nA panel discussion following the Secretary's remarks will feature:\nAssistant Secretary Eric P.

For the first week, she watched me as I did my work. This week, she is doing it herself. I am only here to answer questions.\nAnd she hasn't had any.\nSo here I am, no office (I found a random place with a computer in a corner to sit), no work. Waiting around to see if questions come. Waiting for the week to end (though I will miss every single person in this office...the folks here are GREAT!) so I can celebrate my birthday this weekend and start training at FSI next week.\nNot to say that it isn't worth it (it is) but for those about to start A-100 next week, and those waiting through the various stages of joining the Foreign Service, be warned: the waiting never ends. All the waiting for your written test results, QEP results, Oral Assessment date, clearances, arrival on the register, \"the call\" and finally the start of your A-100, those are all preparation. Soon, you will be waiting for the bid list, your assignment, your tenure, your promotion, your orders, your transfer date, your HHE. Or like me, for the week to end.\nI think it may be possible to die of boredom.\nAdvocate: View From Washington: Pride?\nKerry Eleveld has a piece in the Advocate about the advances the Administration has made on LGBT issues. She writes:\n\"Last week, the Obama administration made what is arguably one of the largest federal equality advancements for transgender Americans in the history of this country when it revised an antiquated passport policy to allow people to accurately declare their gender identity without having undergone gender reassignment surgery.\nUnsurprisingly, the change emanated from the Department of State, where secretary Hillary Clinton has continually used her authority to the fullest extent possible to advance equality on behalf of the global community\u2019s minorities and most disadvantaged \u2013 not least of which include women and gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender individuals here at home and around the world.\nIn fact, the State Department exceeded Mara Keisling\u2019s expectations. Keisling, executive director of the National Center for Transgender Equality, said she had expected to see the policy emerge by the end of the year. \u201cIt came faster than I thought,\u201d she marveled.\nThis change absolutely happened on the Obama administration\u2019s watch and President Barack Obama deserves credit for it, but I can\u2019t help but note the pattern that has developed at the State Department and draw some conclusions. Chief among them is what\u2019s possible when the top few decision makers at State \u2013 including secretary Clinton herself \u2013 are more inclined to make an unabashed push on behalf of equality rather than a tepid one.\"\nBack to something completely different\nSo I am still running.\nI'll wait while you pick yourself up off of the floor.\nI finished the Couch to 5K program (which is great, and if you don't run but want to, you should try it. You can find the program here.) and ran my first 5K on June 5th (the Race for the Cure in DC).\nYou can get back off the floor now. Or just stay there, you may end up hurting yourself if you keep falling over.\nI was really slow, but I did it. And it felt pretty good.\nSo I've signed up for the Marine Corps 10K.\nSee, I told you to stay on the floor.\nI am currently running three days a week for about 30 minutes. I can run for 30 minutes now without stopping (at the beginning of April, running for one minute was hard, so this is a big deal). But now, I am doing intervals to increase my speed. So I run for a minute, walk for a minute. It has increased my pre-race pace by about 2.5 minutes per mile. I'm still really slow, but I am pleased with the improvement. and I really think the 10K will be doable. and I have until October 31 to train.\nI am really liking running, and am beginning to see changes in my body too. And this is a sport I can do even when overseas. Which is nice.\nI am beginning to think that getting a hat like my wife's is within reach.\nThough my new goal is to run a marathon before I head back overseas in 2011, probably the Shamrock Marathon (which is where my wife got her hat for the 1/2 marathon), so the hat I would get will be even cooler.\nYeah, just stay on the floor.\n2010 LGBT Pride Month: Eric Nelson\nEric Nelson is currently assigned to the U.S. Embassy in Islamabad as deputy management counselor of the U.S. Mission in Pakistan.

The guidelines include detailed information about what information the certification must include. It is also possible to obtain a limited-validity passport if the physician\u2019s statement shows the applicant is in the process of gender transition. No additional medical records are required. Sexual reassignment surgery is no longer a prerequisite for passport issuance. A Consular Report of Birth Abroad can also be amended with the new gender.\nAs with all passport applicants, passport issuing officers at embassies and consulates abroad and domestic passport agencies and centers will only ask appropriate questions to obtain information necessary to determine citizenship and identity.\nThe new policy and procedures are based on standards and recommendations of the World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH), recognized by the American Medical Association as the authority in this field.\nON EDIT: The Cable has a nice piece on this.\n2010 LGBT Pride Month: J. Michelle Schohn and Mary E. Glantz\nJ. Michelle Schohn and Mary E. Glantz are a tandem couple serving in Washington, D.C.\nDr. Glantz entered the Foreign Service in 2002 as a political-coned Foreign Service Officer and served her first tour in Baku as a political officer.

Since joining USAID, Ken served as the Honduras and Guatemala desk officer for over a year and on the West Bank and Gaza Desk for three years. During this time, Ken served as a representative of the Latin America and Caribbean (LAC) Bureau on the Haiti Response Management Team following the 2010 Haiti earthquake, and on the Lebanon Response Management Team (RMT) following the Israel-Lebanon conflict in 2006.\nKen is a published author (\"The Rising Storm\") and is highly interested in issues of diversity. Ken serves as agency-wide equal employment opportunity (EEO) counselor at USAID and has served on other agency diversity panels and committees. In 2010, Ken created a Pride Information Packet for posts worldwide and will serve as the GLIFAA Post Rep while in Honduras.\nThis is an excellent editorial that ran in today's Washington Post.\nToward that goal, we have agreed to co-chair the advisory board of the American Foundation for Equal Rights. The foundation helped launch the case of Perry v. Schwarzenegger, which is currently before a federal district court in California but is likely to be appealed all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court.\nThe Perry case -- scheduled for closing arguments next Wednesday -- was brought by two couples whose relationships are marked by the sort of love, commitment and respect that leads naturally to marriage. Kris Perry and Sandy Stier and their four children, and Paul Katami and Jeff Zarrillo, ask for no more, and deserve no less, than the equal rights accorded to every other American family. But they are blocked from obtaining marriage licenses under California's Proposition 8.\nThe plaintiffs' legal team, headed by former Bush v. Gore antagonists Theodore Olson and David Boies, has demonstrated that no good reason exists for the denial of fundamental civil rights under Proposition 8. We support that position.\nAlthough we serve, respectively, as president of a progressive and chairman of a libertarian think tank, we are not joining the foundation's advisory board to present a \"bipartisan\" front. Rather, we have come together in a nonpartisan fashion because the principle of equality before the law transcends the left-right divide and cuts to the core of our nation's character. This is not about politics; it's about an indispensable right vested in all Americans.\nOver more than two centuries, minorities in America have gradually experienced greater freedom and been subjected to fewer discriminatory laws. But that process unfolded with great difficulty.\nAs the country evolved, the meaning of one small word -- \"all\" -- has evolved as well. Our nation's Founders reaffirmed in the Declaration of Independence the self-evident truth that \"all Men are created equal,\" and our Pledge of Allegiance concludes with the simple and definitive words \"liberty and justice for all.\" Still, we have struggled mightily since our independence, often through our courts, to ensure that liberty and justice is truly available to all Americans.\nThanks to the genius of our Framers, who separated power among three branches of government, our courts have been able to take the lead -- standing up to enforce equal protection, as demanded by the Constitution -- even when the executive and legislative branches, and often the public as well, were unwilling to confront wrongful discrimination.\nIndeed, the Supreme Court issued its Loving ruling in the face of widespread opposition. A Gallup poll taken within months of the decision found that 74 percent of the American public \"disapproved\" of interracial marriage. Nevertheless, the court vindicated those constitutional rights to which every American is entitled. As we look back, the Loving decision is hailed as an example of the best in American jurisprudence.\nIn terms of public opinion, courts addressing marriage equality have less of a hill to climb. Opposition to same-sex marriage pales next to the intense hostility the court faced before its ruling in Loving. A February Post poll showed 47 percent support for same-sex marriage (up from 37 percent support in the same poll in 2003). The Post poll also showed that the younger an individual is, the more likely he or she is to favor marriage equality, regardless of political persuasion. Among individuals ages 18 to 29, an estimated 65 percent support marriage equality.\nOur history will soon be written by young people who are seizing the reins from the baby boomers. They seem prepared to reject laws that serve no purpose other than to deny two committed and loving individuals the right to join in a mutually reinforcing marital relationship.\nThe decision in Perry depends, of course, on values far more permanent and important than opinion polls. No less than the constitutional rights of millions of Americans are at stake. But the public appears to be catching up with the Constitution. Just a little more leadership from the courts would be the perfect prescription for a free society.\nJohn D. Podesta is founder and president of the Center for American Progress. Robert A. Levy is chairman of the Cato Institute.\n2010 LGBT Pride Month: Danny Hall\nDanny Hall is the management counselor at the U.S. Embassy in London.\nHe joined the State Department in 1989 after working as an architect in New Orleans, serving as a Peace Corps volunteer in the Philippines, and running his own small business in Dallas. He is a registered architect and received an MBA from Yale in 1988. Since joining State, he has served in the Dominican Republic, Paris, Slovenia, Washington, PRT Jalalabad in Afghanistan, and now London. Danny was one of the founders of Gays and Lesbians in Foreign Affairs Agencies (GLIFAA), and served as President in 1995-96. Danny was an officer on the Board of the American Foreign Service Association from 2002-2004. He received the Arnold Raphel Award in 2007 for his work with entry level officers.\nDanny married Graham James in Westminster Town Hall in London on May 12, 2008. Graham is an actor who has just finished a year- long run in Agatha Christie\u2019s \u201cThe Mouse Trap,\u201d at the St. Martin\u2019s Theatre in London. They are both looking forward to their next posting in Helsinki, Finland, where Danny will serve as Deputy Chief of Mission. Both Danny and Graham applaud the efforts of all those who have worked so hard to make recognition of our families possible.\nThe Secretary of State\u2019s 2010 LGBT Pride Proclamation\nThis June, we celebrate Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender (LGBT) Pride Month. I join President Obama in recognizing the immeasurable contributions of the LGBT community both in the United States and around the world. In honor of LGBT Pride Month and on behalf of the State Department, I extend my appreciation to all those who work on behalf of human rights for all. At the State Department, USAID, and throughout the Administration, we are grateful for our LGBT employees in Washington and around the world. They and their families make many sacrifices to serve our nation. Their contributions are vital to our efforts to establish stability, prosperity, and peace worldwide.\nThe United States also recognizes the unflagging efforts and courage of advocates and organizations fighting to promote equality and justice around the world, especially in countries where doing so puts their lives and their families at risk.\nHuman rights are the inalienable right of every person, no matter who that person is or who that person loves. The State Department is firmly committed to supporting the right of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender individuals to lead productive and dignified lives, free from fear and violence. We have specifically included the status of the human rights of LGBT individuals in our annual Human Rights Report in each country. We are working to protect LGBT people across the world, particularly those forced to flee their homes or countries. And the State Department will continue to counter efforts, anywhere they occur, to marginalize, criminalize, and penalize members of the LGBT community.\nWe have made significant progress but we still have challenging work ahead. Lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender people face horrific violence and repression around the world. Pride marches are often met with active and armed government resistance. Laws banning sexual orientation and gender expression undermine civil society, the rule of law, and public health outreach. The persecution and violation of human rights of members of the LGBT community is not only an affront to human dignity, but it also diminishes human progress and potential. As Secretary of State, I will continue to advance a comprehensive human rights agenda that includes the elimination of violence and discrimination against people based on sexual orientation or gender identity.\nLet us recommit ourselves this year to building a future in which every child, whoever and wherever they are, has the opportunity, dignity, and freedom to fulfill his or her God-given potential.\nLabels: Hillary Clinton, Pride Month\n2010 LGBT Pride Month: Ajit Joshi\nAjit Joshi is a senior program officer in the Program, Policy, and Management Office in the Bureau for Democracy, Conflict, and Humanitarian Assistance at USAID.

Ignoring the cold, they exchanged information about parties, dates and potential bandmates with strangers, using Bluetooth technology.\nIt is this type of simple adaptation of social networking that is key to U.S. public diplomacy efforts, said Jared Cohen, a member of Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton's policy planning staff. Cohen recalled visiting Iran about five years ago while researching a book and seeing young Iranians in the southwestern city of Shiraz busily texting each other. Communicating, but no one was talking.\nDiplomats with decades of experience and knowledge need to work with the under-30 age group that is deftly using Internet-based communication technology, Cohen said. Traditional channels of diplomacy are fine, but they will need an assist from Facebook, Twitter and other social networks to succeed.\n\"They're an incredible resource that needs to be harnessed,\" Cohen said during a lecture sponsored by Ogilvy Public Relations.\nCohen noted a few powerful examples. After the Jan. 12 earthquake in Haiti, text messaging was crucial to collecting donations for emergency relief. In Afghanistan, Cohen said, he encountered inmates who smuggled in cell phones to organize riots.\nAnd, Cohen said, Colombian President Alvaro Uribe pointed out that the most recent major demobilization of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, also known by the Spanish acronym FARC, could not have happened without social networking, specifically Facebook, to organize protests with millions of supporters worldwide.\nThe U.S. government also should recognize these \"tools for empowerment\" can be used with good or bad intentions, Cohen said, adding that there is no better time than now to influence these new technologies.\nVinton Cerf, vice president and chief Internet evangelist for Google, agreed. Seated on the front row for Cohen's remarks, Cerf said new communication technologies are platforms for conversations that otherwise would not have taken place.\nThe Obama administration is \"the first administration I can think of that has engaged this deeply the use of technology in the State Department,\" Cerf said.\nLabels: new media, social networking\nFSI Announces: Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgendered Community in Foreign Affairs Agencies Workshop\nThis Transition Center workshop will highlight the unique situations that affect LGBT employees and their families overseas and help them understand and work with relevant USG policies\nWHERE AND WHEN: Transition Center, FSI, 4000 Arlington BLVD, Arlington, VA on Wednesday, June 9, 2010 from 6:00 pm- 8:30 pm.\nWHO MAY ATTEND: Open to all foreign affairs agency employees, eligible family members and members of household.\nNON-STATE TUITION: No charge\nHOW TO APPLY: Provide the name, agency and contact information of the attendee to FSITCTraining@state.gov\nFor more information: About this workshop and other FSI Transition Center courses, check our website at http://fsi.state.gov/fsi/tc/\nQUESTIONS: For any questions about this workshop please contact Archana Dheer at dheera@state.gov\nLabels: FSI, gay diplomats, gay rights, same-sex partners\n2010 LGBT Pride Month: Clayton Bond and Ted Osius\nTed is Deputy Chief of Mission in Jakarta, Indonesia and Clayton is assistant general services officer in Singapore.

Among those benefits were long-term care insurance and expanded sick leave for civil service employees and medical care abroad, eligibility for employment at posts, cost-of-living adjustments abroad and medical evacuation for domestic partners of foreign service members. In that same Memorandum, I called upon the federal agencies to undertake a comprehensive review and to identify any additional benefits that\ncould be extended to the same-sex domestic partners of Federal employees under existing law. That process has now concluded, and I am proud to announce that earlier today, I signed a Memorandum that requires Executive agencies to take immediate action to extend to the same-sex domestic partners of Federal employees a number of meaningful benefits, from family assistance services to hardship transfers to relocation expenses. It also requires agencies that extend any new benefits to employees\u2019 opposite-sex spouses to make those benefits available on equal terms to employees\u2019 same-sex domestic partners to\nthe extent permitted by law.\nWhile this Memorandum is an important step on the path to equality, my\nAdministration continues to be prevented by existing Federal law from providing same-sex domestic partners with the full range of benefits enjoyed by heterosexual married couples. That is why, today, I renew my call for swift passage of an important piece of legislation pending in both Houses of Congress -- the Domestic Partnership Benefits and Obligations Act. This legislation, championed by Senators Joe Lieberman and Susan Collins and Congresswoman Tammy Baldwin, would extend to the same-sex domestic partners of Federal employees the full range of benefits currently enjoyed by Federal employees\u2019 opposite-sex spouses. I look forward to signing it into law.\"\nLabels: Domestic Partnership Benefits and Obligation Act, Joe Lieberman, Susan Collins, Tammy Baldwin\nExtension of Benefits to Same-Sex Domestic Partners of Federal Employees\nThis memo, which was released yesterday, extends a few more rights and benefits to same-sex couples. It is a step towards equality, but we are far from there (what does this leave now, 1,130 benefits we don't receive?). Meanwhile, my wife and I yesterday had to spend $1,500 to make sure we have the same protections any other couple would have by virtue of being married. And even then, I know there are those who would chose to ignore such things as medical powers of attorney simply because they don't \"approve\" of our \"lifestyle\" (such as in the Florida case, where the woman whose wife of 17 years was dying in the hospital was not permitted access to her spouse even though she had medical power of attorney).\nSomeday, I hope, we will be full citizens.\nSUBJECT: Extension of Benefits to Same-Sex Domestic Partners of Federal Employees\nFor far too long, many of our Government's hard-working, dedicated LGBT employees have been denied equal access to the basic rights and benefits their colleagues enjoy. This kind of systemic inequality undermines the health, well-being, and security not just of our Federal workforce, but also of their families and communities. That is why, last June, I directed the heads of executive departments and agencies, in consultation with the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), to\nconduct a thorough review of the benefits they provide and to identify any that could be extended to LGBT employees and their partners and families. Although legislative action is necessary to provide full equality to LGBT Federal employees, the agencies have identified a number of benefits that can be extended under existing law. OPM, in consultation with the Department of Justice, has provided me with a report recommending that all of the identified benefits be extended.\nAccordingly, I hereby direct the following:\nSection 1. Immediate Actions To Extend Benefits.\nAgencies should immediately take the following actions, consistent with existing law, in order to extend benefits to the same-sex domestic partners of Federal employees, and, where applicable, to the children of same-sex domestic partners of Federal employees:\n(a) The Director of OPM should take appropriate action to:\n(i) clarify that the children of employees' same-sex domestic partners fall within the definition of \"child\" for purposes of Federal child-care subsidies, and, where appropriate, for child-care services;\n(ii) clarify that, for purposes of employee assistance programs, same-sex domestic partners and their children qualify as \"family members\";\n(iii) issue a proposed rule that would clarify that employees' same-sex domestic partners qualify as \"family members\" for purposes of noncompetitive appointments made pursuant to Executive Order 12721 of July 30, 1990;\n(iv) issue a proposed rule that would add a Federal retiree's same-sex domestic partner to the list of individuals presumed to have an insurable interest in the employee pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 8339(k)(1), 8420;\n(v) clarify that under appropriate circumstances, employees' same-sex domestic partners and their children qualify as dependents for purposes of evacuation payments made under 5 U.S.C. 5522-5523;\n(vi) amend its guidance on implementing President Clinton's April 11, 1997, memorandum to heads of executive departments and agencies on \"Expanded Family and Medical Leave Policies\" to specify that the 24 hours of unpaid leave made available to Federal employees in connection with (i) school and early childhood educational activities; (ii) routine family medical purposes; and (iii) elderly relatives' health or care needs, may be used to meet the needs of an employee's same-sex domestic partner or the same-sex domestic partner's children; and\n(vii) clarify that employees' same-sex domestic partners qualify as dependents for purposes of calculating the extra allowance payable under 5 U.S.C. 5942a to assist employees stationed on Johnston Island, subject to any limitations applicable to spouses.\n(b) The Administrator of General Services should take appropriate action to amend the definitions of \"immediate family\" and \"dependent\" appearing in the Federal Travel Regulations, 41 C.F.R. Chs. 300-304, to include same-sex domestic partners and their children, so that employees and their domestic partners and children can obtain the full benefits available under applicable law, including certain travel, relocation, and subsistence payments.\n(c) All agencies offering any of the benefits specified by OPM in implementing guidance under section 3 of this memorandum, including credit union membership, access to fitness facilities, and access to planning and counseling services, should take all appropriate action to provide the same level of benefits that is provided to employees' spouses and their children to employees' same-sex domestic partners and their children.\n(d) All agencies with authority to provide benefits to employees outside of the context of title 5, United States Code should take all appropriate actions to ensure that the benefits being provided to employees' spouses and their children are also being provided, at an equivalent level wherever permitted by law, to their employees' same-sex domestic partners and their children.\nSec. 2. Continuing Obligation To Provide New Benefits.\nIn the future, all agencies that provide new benefits to the spouses of Federal employees and their children should, to the extent permitted by law, also provide them to the same-sex domestic partners of their employees and those same-sex domestic partners' children. This section applies to appropriated and nonappropriated fund instrumentalities of such agencies.\nSec. 3. Monitoring and Guidance.\nThe Director of OPM shall monitor compliance with this memorandum, and may instruct agencies to provide the Director with reports on the status of their compliance, and prescribe the form and manner of such reports. The Director of OPM shall also issue guidance to ensure consistent and appropriate implementation.\nBy April 1, 2011, and annually thereafter, the Director of OPM shall provide the President with a report on the progress of the agencies in implementing this memorandum until such time as all recommendations have been appropriately implemented.\n(a) Except as expressly stated herein, nothing in this memorandum shall be construed to impair or otherwise affect:\nThe Director of OPM is hereby authorized and directed to publish this memorandum in the Federal Register.\n2010 LGBT Pride Month: Patrick Wingate\nPatrick R. Wingate joined the Department of State as a consular-coned Foreign Service Officer in January 2004. He and his family served first in San Salvador, El Salvador and then in Zagreb, Croatia. Patrick is currently consular chief in Tbilisi, Georgia.\nBefore joining the Foreign Service, Patrick worked for State and USAID from 1993 through 2003 in Russia, Bosnia, and Herzegovina. He also served as the Washington-based program manager for USAID/OTI projects in Sierra Leone, Burundi, and the Democratic Republic of Congo.\nPatrick and his partner, Rami Shakra, were married in Canada in September 2003, and their two children were born in 2004 in Guatemala. The Shakra-Wingate Family proudly serves the United States of America abroad, and hopes to be a cultural example of the rich diversity and equality their country has to offer for all families, both foreign and domestic.\nStarting today, I will post one of the Pride Month bios per day until I have posted them all.\nAnthony Cotton is a Presidential Management Fellow on the Project Development Team in the Office of Development Credit at the United States Agency for International Development, and the incoming Policy Director for Gays and Lesbians in Foreign Affairs Agencies.\nStatement by Ambassador Susan E.

No one is immune to complications.\u201d\u2014Arnold Advincula, MD, chief of minimally invasive gynecologic surgery at Florida Hospital Celebration Health\n\u201cYou should know that practically all surgeons have an inherent financial conflict of interest.\u201d\n\u201cThat\u2019s because they are paid approximately ten times more money to perform surgery than to manage your problem conservatively.\u201d\u2014James Rickert, MD, an orthopedic surgeon in Bedford, Indiana\n\u201cIf an airline told you that their pilot is the best but he\u2019s not FAA-certified, would you get on the plane?\u201d\n\u201cFor the same reason, always check if your surgeon is board-certified in his specialty.

They may want the doctors to buy or build a surgery center to capture facility fees. They usually want orthopedic surgeons to get an in-office MRI. Every time a doctor does this, he becomes more financially conflicted.

Now I never rely on just one pathology exam. If your doctor finds something, ask him to send your slides to a nationally recognized reference lab\u2014not just one or two slides but the whole lot\u2014and get a second interpretation.\u201d\u2014Bert Vorstman, MD, a prostate cancer specialist in Coral Springs, Florida\n\u201cSo often the risks on legal consent forms aren\u2019t the things we actually worry about.\u201d\n\u201cOr, there may be one complication we\u2019re really concerned about. If you truly want to understand the dangers, ask your surgeon, \u2018What is the risk that gives you the most pause?\u2019\u201d\u2014Kevin B. Jones, MD, author of What Doctors Cannot Tell You: Clarity, Confidence and Uncertainty in Medicine\n\u201cIn medicine, you can get a DUI, go to jail for a couple of hours, and walk out at 7 a.m. the next morning and do a surgery.\u201d\n\u201cYou can be accused of sexual misconduct and drug and alcohol abuse in one state and pop over to the next one and get a license. Some state medical boards don\u2019t even thoroughly research your background; they argue that the less-than-$10 fee to access national data is too expensive.\u201d\u2014Marty Makary, MD\n\u201cSurgeons are control freaks.\u201d\n\u201cWhen things don\u2019t go our way in the operating room, we can have outbursts. Some of us curse, some throw instruments, others have tantrums.\u201d\u2014Paul Ruggieri, MD\n\u201cMistakes are probably more common than you would think.\u201d\n\u201cBut most of them don\u2019t actually hurt people. I work with residents, and I don\u2019t let them do anything that I can\u2019t fix if they screw it up. If there\u2019s an error that I fix that I\u2019m sure won\u2019t affect the patient at all, I\u2019m not going to say anything about it. That would accomplish nothing except to stress out the patient.\u201d\u2014An orthopedic surgeon\n\u201cSome problems just don\u2019t fix well with surgery, like many cases of back pain.\u201d\n\u201cMy advice? Grin and bear it. Some surgeons vehemently disagree. They say, \u2018Oh, you have a degenerative disk, and that must be the culprit. Let\u2019s fix it.\u2019 But many people have a degenerative disk with no pain. There isn\u2019t a lot of evidence that we\u2019re helping very many people.\u201d\u2014Kevin B. Jones, MD\n\u201cAlways ask about nonsurgical options and whether there\u2019s anything wrong with waiting a little while.\u201d\n\u201cSurgeons are busy, and they like to operate. A professor from my residency would say, \u2018There is nothing more dangerous than a surgeon with an open operating room and a mortgage to pay.\u2019\u201d\u2014Kevin B. Jones, MD\n\u201cTalk to your doctor about donating your blood or asking your family members to donate blood before an elective surgery.\u201d\n\u201cBanked blood is a foreign substance, like an organ, and your body can potentially react adversely. If you can use your own blood or blood from your family, there\u2019s less chance of those reactions.\u201d\u2014Kathy Magliato, MD, cardiothoracic surgeon at Saint John\u2019s Health Center in Santa Monica, California\n\u201cResidents have to learn how to operate, and it\u2019s required that an attending physician be \u2018present.\u2019\u201d\nBut \u2018present\u2019 doesn\u2019t mean he has to be in the operating room scrubbed in. At an academic institution, ask whether your surgeon will be actively participating in the surgery or just checking in every hour.\u201d\u2014Ezriel \u201cEd\u201d Kornel, MD\n\u201cIt\u2019s always interesting to hear what people say when you\u2019re giving them anesthesia.\u201d\n\u201cI once had a guy who was a horse trainer who started going on about how this one horse was a sure thing to win. One of the nurses collected money from everyone in the operating room and bet on the horse. It came in second place. The smart people bet the horse to place, but some had bet the horse to win, so half the staff was happy, and the other was upset. He woke up and had no idea what kind of ruckus he\u2019d caused.\u201d\u2014Michael Salzhauer, MD, a plastic surgeon in Miami, Florida\n\u201cI did an intestinal operation on someone who had been stabbed.\u201d\n\u201cAs I was running my hand along the bowel, I came upon something and said, \u2018What the heck is this?\u2019 It felt like a condom. Then all of a sudden, it wiggled! I dropped it, shocked. The guy had worms.\u201d\u2014Sid Schwab, MD, a retired general surgeon in Everett, Washington\n\u201cDuring my six weeks as a surgical intern in the ER, I inadvertently stuck myself twice with contaminated needles\u2026\n\u2026 briefly nodded off in the middle of suturing a leg laceration, accidentally punctured a guy\u2019s femoral artery while trying to draw some blood, and broke up a fight between the family members of a guy who\u2019d come in with a stab wound to the abdomen. I was slugged in the head by a delirious patient in an alcoholic rage, spat upon, coughed on, vomited on, farted on, bled on, and mistaken for an orderly.\u201d\u2014Paul Ruggieri, MD, author of Confessions of a Surgeon: The Good, the Bad, and the Complicated \u2026 Life Behind the O.R. Doors\n\u201cWhen I get polite in the operating room, when I start saying \u2018please\u2019 and \u2018thank you\u2019 and talking in a monotone, that\u2019s when nurses know things aren\u2019t going well.\u201d\n\u201cIt\u2019s this mechanism to maintain calm. When we become unglued, everyone becomes unfocused, and that\u2019s when patients die. How you handle stress is absolutely critical.\u201d\u2014Kathy Magliato, MD\n\u201cYour doctor should not push you to make a speedy decision about prostate cancer surgery.\u201d\n\u201cMost prostate cancers are extremely slow-growing, and there is so much misleading information out there, so you should take your time.\u201d\u2014Bert Vorstman, MD\n\u201cThe only real way to understand what happened in the operating room is to read the operative note dictated by the surgeon.\u201d\n\u201cIf you have unanswered questions about your surgery, ask for the report.\u201d\u2014Paul Ruggieri, MD\n\u201cIf you have pain in your calf after surgery, or if it swells and looks red, call your doctor right away.\u201d\n\u201cThose are the main symptoms of a blood clot, which is a risk of just about every surgery.\u201d\u2014James Rickert, MD\n\u201cWhat really keeps us up at night?\u201d\n\u201cIt\u2019s not making a mistake in the operating room; it\u2019s the noncompliant patients. When patients don\u2019t do what we tell them, bad things can happen.\u201d\u2014Kurian Thott, MD, an ob-gyn in Stafford, Virginia\n\u201cObese people have no idea how challenging their care is.\u201d\n\u201cStarting an IV is tough because chubby arms don\u2019t have many visible veins. It\u2019s difficult to place a central venous catheter. Post-op, they\u2019re more likely to get infections. Just getting someone who weighs 300 pounds out of bed is hard.\u201d\u2014General surgeon who blogs under the name Skeptical Scalpel\n\u201cIf you ask too many questions, you can be branded as a pain in the neck.\u201d\n\u201cWhen one extremely hostile relative bombarded me every time I walked in, I developed a tendency not to go in the room. If you have three pages full of questions, show them to the nurse. Say \u2018How many of these should I wait to ask the doctor about? How many can you help me with?\u2019\u201d\u2014General surgeon who blogs under the name Skeptical Scalpel\n\u201cAbout 25 percent of operations are unnecessary, but administrators e-mail doctors telling them to do more.\u201d\n\u201cThis is not an insurance company putting pressure on doctors; this is not a government regulation. This is private hospitals pushing doctors to generate more money by doing more procedures. It goes on at America\u2019s top hospitals. The Cleveland Clinic has said this system of paying doctors is so ethically immoral that it started paying its doctors a flat salary no matter how many operations they do.\u201d\u2014Marty Makary, MD\n\u201cRules that restrict residents\u2019 hours mean doctors come out of training with a lot less experience.\u201d\n\u201cWhen I was training, I was almost always in the hospital. Now it\u2019s more like shift work. \u2018Hey, it\u2019s 7 p.m. I\u2019m out of here. He\u2019s your problem now.\u2019\u201d\u2014Sid Schwab, MD\n\u201cSome orthopedic surgeons make millions in soft consulting agreements with device manufacturers.\u201d\n\u201cSometimes the same doctors have performed a record number of implants for that company.\u201d\u2014Marty Makary, MD\n\u201cIf you need a medical device, ask if your doctor has a financial relationship with the vendor.\u201d\n\u201cIf so, chances are you\u2019re going to get that type of joint or screw, even if it\u2019s more expensive or not the most appropriate.\u201d\u2014James Rickert, MD\n\u201cEvery time a patient dies, I think about the family, the funeral, the kids.\u201d\n\u201cI operated on a man who had something very complex and died in the operating room. He had a wife and two children. When I came out to tell them, the children were screaming, \u2018Mommy, Mommy, I want my daddy.\u2019 That was very hard. Even though we present ourselves as very strong, we\u2019re vulnerable to depression and other problems. We\u2019re human.\u201d\u2014A surgeon in Florida\n\u201cThat tiny thank-you card that took you 15 seconds to write?\u201d\n\u201cIt was very meaningful. Letters are a good reminder of how important this is and how people entrust themselves to us. I save every one.\u201d\u2014Marc Gillinov, MD\n\u201cPatients think that we\u2019re so wrapped up in our hectic schedules that we don\u2019t care.\u201d\n\u201cBut we do. We care deeply. Those of us who are spiritual pray for our patients. My family and I pray for my patients at dinner the night before surgery.\u201d\u2014Kathy Magliato, MD\n\u201cI was about to approach the back of a patient\u2019s knee instead of the front for a biopsy.\u201d\n\u201cBecause of a checklist, I looked at the imaging again and thought, Yikes! What am I doing? Thankfully, I caught the mistake before I even draped the patient, and no harm was done, but I felt horrible about it. It was more than a year ago, and I still think about it.\u201d\u2014Kevin B. Jones, MD\n\u201cFatigue and impatience have undoubtedly contributed to some mistakes I\u2019ve made in the operating room.\u201d\n\u201cBut unless you ask, your surgeon is not going to tell you that he was up all night on call before your procedure and that he may not be in tip-top form.\u201d\u2014Paul Ruggieri, MD\n\u201cI always ask at national conferences of doctors, \u2018How many of you know of another doctor who should not be practicing medicine because he is too dangerous?\u2019\u201d\n\u201cEvery hand goes up.\u201d\u2014Marty Makary, MD\n\u201cVery often, plastic surgery patients don\u2019t admit to a previous surgery, and I don\u2019t find out until I\u2019m in there.\u201d\n\u201cI\u2019ll go in on an eyelid or a nose, and it\u2019s just a mess. If you don\u2019t tell us you had lipo, there will be scar tissue, and the fat won\u2019t come out normally. So please be 100 percent honest. There\u2019s no need to be embarrassed. We\u2019ve heard it all, and we don\u2019t judge.\u201d\u2014Andrew Ordon, MD, cohost of the hit television show The Doctors and a board-certified plastic surgeon\n\u201cProducts like ScarEase, Scarguard, and Mederma do work to reduce scarring.\u201d\n\u201cStart applying daily as soon as your wound has healed, and avoid sunlight or use a sunscreen with zinc oxide for at least six months after surgery.\u201d\u2014Andrew Ordon, MD\n\u201cPatients get really detail-oriented about a surgery technique but forget to focus on basics like pre-op and post-op instructions.\u201d\n\u201cThat\u2019s just as, if not more, important.\u201d\u2014Andrew Ordon, MD\n\u201cThe biggest mistake during recovery is not giving yourself enough of a break.\u201d\n\u201cGive yourself time to heal. If you don\u2019t, you can cause complications and prolong your recovery.\u201d\u2014Andrew Ordon, MD\n\u201cIf your doctor wants to give you a stent, always ask: Is this better than medicine?\u201d\n\u201cIf you\u2019re not having a heart attack or an unstable angina, you will do equally well with a stent or medicine, studies show. Having something permanently implanted in your body is not a risk-free proposition. There is evidence that thousands of people have had stents they likely did not need.\u201d\u2014Marc Gillinov, MD\n\u201cIf I had any kind of serious medical condition, I\u2019d go to a teaching hospital.\u201d\n\u201cYou\u2019ll get doctors involved with the latest in medicine. Even for simple cases, if there\u2019s a complication that requires an assist device or a heart transplant, some hospitals may not be able to do it. At a university hospital, you also have the advantage of having a resident or physician bedside 24-7, with a surgeon on call always available.\u201d\u2014Tomas A. Salerno, MD\n\u201cBefore any operation, always ask what\u2019s broken and how fixing it will help.\u201d\n\u201cJust because you have a blockage in an artery doesn\u2019t mean you need it fixed, especially if you don\u2019t have symptoms.\u201d\u2014Marc Gillinov, MD\n\u201cWe\u2019re all afraid of getting sued.\u201d\n\u201cIt\u2019s the big black cloud hanging over us, and it permeates a lot of the things we do: the tests we run, the labs we order to make sure we\u2019re not missing something. I\u2019m guilty of that.\u201d\u2014Paul Ruggieri, MD\n\u201cYour surgeon may say it\u2019s better to do your operation right away even if it\u2019s not really urgent.\u201d\n\u201cWhy? If you let the patient leave the hospital and something adverse occurs, someone may raise the question \u2018Why wasn\u2019t the operation performed right away?\u2019\u201d\u2014Tomas A. Salerno, MD\nRead more: http://www.rd.com/slideshows/50-secrets-your-surgeon-wont-tell-you/#ixzz3Z7eEqA2S",

        "title": "Top 10 Political Prisoners - Listverse",
        "raw_content": "Dash August 4, 2010\nFor their politics, they were put in prison. Some died, some were released, and some are still there. But when others looked out from the same prison bars and saw mud, they saw stars. From a Korean dissident to a nuclear scientist, via Vaclav Havel, we look at some of the world\u2019s most famous political prisoners.\nKidnapped from a hotel room in Tokyo by members of KICA, General Park\u2019s notorious spy agency in 1973, Kim Dae-Jung was brought to his Seoul residence, only to be placed under house arrest. Through his decades long struggle for democracy and human rights in his homeland, Kim saw his country swap one dictator for another, until the great liberator, financial crisis, brought him to power. The years of exile in America had secured him many admirers, and he tried to use that leverage to bring about that same fate for his brothers in the north, but not even an embrace from Kim Jong Il at Pyongyang prevented him from being voted out.\nNo one person could inspire such conflicting feelings like Mohammed Abdel Rahman Abdel Raouf Arafat al-Qudwa al-Husseini. To some, he exemplified resistance, a man who turned a fledgling, rag-tag movement into a world renowned organisation, with sole responsibility for the Palestinians. To others, he was a vile terrorist with little respect for human rights. Towards the very end, though, his inability to make peace jeopardized his credibility as a statesman and the Israeli government besieged his home in Ramallah. It was from there that the gallant leader, once the face of a dispossessed people, still defiant, led his people . He was allowed to go to Paris for medical treatment, but he returned home only to be buried.\nA modern day cross between the zeal and idealism of Che Guevara and the courage and integrity of Nelson Mandela, Xanana Gusmao spearheaded East Timor\u2019s independence movement from Portugal, and later from Indonesia. Arrested in November, 1992, on charges of subversion and illegal possession of firearms, Gusmao began on a journey to free his people from Indonesian occupation. Superbly aided by Jose Ramos Horta, Gusmao was able to bring the plight of his people to worldwide attention. No amount of torture and intimidation could break the man, and he came out stronger than ever. His release, in 1999, was the precedent to a referendum and, eventually, to independence.\n?For a man of such rigorous discipline, Mordechai Vanunu was trapped by the most elementary of methods. The trial was a clandestine affair and, not surprisingly, landed him in prison for eighteen years, eleven of which were spent in solitary confinement. His release has not brought about much relief, and a broad array of restrictions are imposed on his speech and movement. What did he do? He exposed Israel\u2019s nuclear program.\n\u201cIf you want to see your plays performed the way you wrote them, become president\u201d said Vaclav Havel. If anybody would know, it would be him. Vaclav Havel transitioned from a writer of plays to the writer of his country\u2019s destiny. When the Prague Spring ushered in Czechoslovakia\u2019s winter of discontent, Havel scripted the Charter 77 manifesto, co-founded the Committee for the Defense of the Unjustly Persecuted and endured imprisonment with fellow artists. It is from prison- \u2018the great school of self control\u2019 \u2013 that the man demonstrated the potential of artists to shape the collective consciousness of a people, and thus alter the direction of a country for posterity.\n\u2018Yeravda\u2019 was the reply given by Mahatma Gandhi when asked about his address by a British interrogator. He wasn\u2019t misinformed. In fact, India\u2019s independence struggle was forged from the prison walls by the political mastermind, whose ideals of non violent civil disobedience brought about the end of British imperialism. Gandhi was unfazed by mortar, brick and stone. He successfully transformed the prison from a place of derision to a center of festive reunion, never flinching to return to captivity.\nInvasion of the British consulate in Ghent. Balloons filled with tomato sauce hurled at the queen. Condolences from Tehran and Delhi. Just some of the many reactions observed when a twenty seven year old Irishman died of a hunger fast after sixty six days in Long Kesh. The whole objective of the fast was to get political prisoner status. Margret Thatcher thought otherwise, branding the IRA sympathizer as a rabble-rouser, and Bobby went to his grave smiling.\nHistory will be kind to Andrei Sakharov. Indeed, he had the advantage of scripting it as the father of the Soviet H-bomb, dissident and a political prisoner. Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, a man who knew a thing or two about the prison system in the Soviet union, wrote that a \u201cmiracle occurred when Andrei Sakharov emerged in the Soviet state, among the swarms of corrupt, venal, unprincipled intelligentsia.\u201d Growing increasingly disillusioned with the incompatibility of the state mechanism, with the principles of individual liberty and human understanding, Sakharov made his ideas known to the world.\u2019Our country, like every modern state, needs profound democratic reforms.\u2019 he said, \u2018It needs political and ideological pluralism, a mixed economy and protection of human rights and the opening up of society.\u2019 The party exiled him to that obscure city of Gorky, but his legend only aggravated, culminating in his release in 1986. By then, Andrei Dmitrievich Sakharov had paved the way for the democratization of the Soviet Union by simply refusing to yield.\nIf success is a journey and not a destination, then Suu Kyi is a living embodiment of accomplishment. Because, through her two decade long struggle to bring democracy to Burma, she has maintained that the quintessential revolution is that of the spirit. Branded as a \u2018terrorist\u2019 by the junta and placed under house arrest since 1990, the leader of the National League for Democracy has handled her ordeal with extraordinary grace and dignity. At the age of sixty four, her zeal has not diminished, and her people march to that elusive quest of freedom and democracy.\n\u2018Bring Back Nelson Mandela, Bring him back home to Soweto, I want to see him walking hand in hand with Winnie Mandela\u2019, sang Hugh Masekela, a renowned anti-apartheid artist. Tried and convicted in the Rivonia trial for sabotage against the apartheid government, the black nationalist leader was deemed too dangerous to walk the streets of South Africa for twenty seven years, his demand for a non racial South Africa too much to bear. Masekela got his wish on the 11th of February, 1990. Mandela emerged from Victor-verster prison, a face until then unrecognizable to most South Africans, to a warm welcome from the teeming multitude who had come to catch a glimpse of their messiah. He then addressed a crowd at Cape Town by raising his arm and clenching his fist-the power salute which the world is now so accustomed to-and cried \u2018Amandla, Amandla.\u2019 The Jordan it seemed, had been crossed.\n10 Deeply Embarrassing Pieces Of Political Memorabilia\n10 Gloriously Eccentric Tales Of European Nobility\n10 Frightening Facts About Private Military Companies",

        "raw_content": "THE EARLS OF HOWTH WERE THE SECOND LARGEST LANDOWNERS IN COUNTY DUBLIN, WITH 7,377 ACRES.\nThe family of ST LAWRENCE has been very ancient in Ireland, having been settled at the seat at Howth from very early times; and were originally barons by tenure, from the reign of HENRY II, and subsequently confirmed by King JOHN.\nThe original surname of this very ancient family was Tristram, and it is said to have been exchanged for the present one, of ST LAWRENCE, under the following circumstances:-\nA MEMBER of the house of TRISTRAM having the command of an army against the invaders of his native soil, attacked and totally routed them on St Lawrence's Day, near Clontarf, and assumed, in consequence of a vow made previously to the battle, the name of the saint, which his descendants have ever since borne.\nThe sword with which this warrior fought and vanquished still hangs in the hall of Howth, where the family has resided since its first arrival in Ireland, a period of seven centuries at least.\nSIR ALMERIC TRISTRAM, first feudal Lord of Howth, brother-in-law and companion-in-arms of Sir John de Courcy, having, in 1177, effected a landing at Howth, defeated the Irish in a pitched battle, at Evora bridge, and obtained the lands and barony of Howth, as a reward for his distinguished valour during the conflict.\nAfter this successful commencement, Sir Almeric, with his brother-in-law, Sir John de Courcy, reduced the whole province of Ulster; but in 1189, when Sir John was removed from the government of Ireland by RICHARD I, Sir Almeric, who was then in Connaught, being attacked by O'Connor, the king of that province, and overwhelmed by numbers, himself and his whole party, consisting of thirty knights and 200 infantrymen, perished to a man.\nBy the sister of Sir John de Courcy, Earl of Ulster, Sir Almeric left three sons, the two younger of whom were slain on Good Friday, 1203, in assisting their Uncle John against de Lacy's men in the churchyard of Downpatrick, County Down; and the eldest,\nSIR NICHOLAS FITZ ALMERIC, was obliged to content himself with the lands of Howth, and relinquished to religious houses the conquests of his father in Ulster.\nFrom this Sir Nicholas the Barony descended uninterruptedly to\nCHRISTOPHER, 2nd Baron, son of Christopher (or Stephen) St Lawrence, 1st Baron Howth, who married, before 1435, Anne Plunkett, a relation the 1st Baron Killeen, and had issue,\nWilliam, an admiral;\nAlmeric, clerk of the rolls;\nLionel, precentor of St Patrick's Cathedral, Dublin;\nWalter, Chief Baron of the Irish Exchequer.\nChristopher St Lawrence died between 1462-5, and was succeeded by his eldest son,\nROBERT (c1435-c1485), 3rd Baron; who was appointed, in 1478, Chancellor of the Exchequer in Ireland; and constituted, in 1483, LORD CHANCELLOR OF IRELAND.\nHis lordship married, in 1478, Joan, second daughter of Edmund Beaufort, 2nd Duke of Somerset, by whom he had four sons and two daughters.\nBy this marriage Lord Howth's descendants derived descent from EDWARD III, and became inheritors of the blood royal.\nThe second son, Thomas, was appointed, in 1532, Attorney-General for Ireland; and, in 1535, Second Justice of the Court of King's Bench.\nNICHOLAS, 4th Baron (c1460-1526); who, for his fidelity to HENRY VII in the affair of Lambert Simnel, was presented by that monarch with 300 pieces of gold, and confirmed by charter, dated 1489, in the lands of Howth etc.\nHe subsequently attended Gerald, 8th Earl of Kildare, Lord Deputy of Ireland, at the famous battle of Knockdoe, in Connaught, fought against the Irish in 1504, where his lordship headed the billmen on foot.\nHis lordship was appointed LORD CHANCELLOR OF IRELAND in 1509; and dying in 1526, was succeeded by his eldest son by his first wife Genet, only daughter of Sir Christopher Plunkett, 3rd Baron Killeen,\nCHRISTOPHER, 5th Baron (c1485-1542), who was succeeded by his eldest son,\nEDWARD, 6th Baron (1508-49), who died without male issue and was succeeded by his brother,\nRICHARD, 7th Baron (c1510-58), at whose decease, without issue, the lineal heirship of whatever honours accrued to the family of ROBERT'S intermarriage, as above, with Joan, one of the co-heirs of Edmund, 2nd Duke of Somerset, devolved upon his lordship's two sisters, ANNE and ALISON; while the Irish barony of Howth passed over undisputedly to the nearest heir male of the family, according to the usual course.\nThis happened to be his brother,\nCHRISTOPHER, 8th Baron, generally called the \"Blind Lord\", who wedded Elizabeth, daughter of Sir John Plunket, of Beaulieu, and was succeeded at his decease, in 1589, by his eldest son,\nNICHOLAS, 9th Baron (c1550-1607), who espoused firstly, Margaret, daughter of Sir Christopher Barnewall; and secondly, Mary, daughter of Sir Nicholas White, of Leixlip, Master of the Rolls in Ireland.\nHis lordship was succeeded by his eldest son by his first marriage,\nCHRISTOPHER, 10th Baron (c1568-1619), a colonel of infantry who commanded the rear of the vanguard at the battle of Carlingford, in 1600, under Lord Deputy Mountjoy, against Hugh O'Neill, Earl of Tyrone.\nHis lordship wedded Elizabeth, daughter of John Wentworth, of Little Horkesley, Yorkshire, and had two sons, NICHOLAS and Thomas, and one daughter, Margaret.\nNICHOLAS, 11th Baron (1597-1643), who married, in 1615, Jane, only surviving daughter and heir of the Rt Rev George Montgomery, Lord Bishop of Derry, and had issue,\nSusanna; Frances; Elizabeth; Margaret.\nHis lordship was succeeded by his only surviving son,\nWILLIAM, 12th Baron (1628-71), who wedded Elizabeth, widow of Colonel Ftizwilliam, and had issue,\nMary, m Henry, 3rd Earl of Mount Alexander;\nMartha, m Hugh, son of Sir Bryan O'Neill Bt.\nTHOMAS, 13th Baron (1659-1727), who sat in JAMES II's parliament of 1689, as he did in 1692, the first parliament after the Revolution, and signed the association and declaration, in 1697, in defence of the person and government of WILLIAM III, and the succession as settled by act of parliament.\nHe wedded, in 1687, Mary, eldest daughter of 2nd Viscount Barnewall of Kingsland, and had, with several sons, a daughter, Elizabeth.\nWILLIAM, 14th Baron (1688-1748), who espoused, in 1729, Lucy, younger daughter of Lieutenant-General Richard Gorges, and by her had a daughter, Mary, and two sons.\nTHOMAS, 15th Baron (1730-1801), was created, in 1767, Viscount St Lawrence and EARL OF HOWTH.\nHis lordship was sworn, in the following year, of His Majesty's privy council in Ireland; and in consideration of his own and his ancestors' services, obtained, in 1776, a pension of \u00a3500 a year.\nHe wedded, in 1750, Isabella, daughter of Sir Edward King Bt, and sister of Edward, 1st Earl of Kingston, and had issue,\nThomas (Rt Rev), Lord Bishop of Cork and Ross;\nIsabella; Elizabeth; Frances\nWILLIAM, 2nd Earl (1752-1822), who married firstly, in 1777, Mary, 2nd daughter and co-heiress of Thomas, Earl of Louth, and had issue,\nHarriet; Isabella; Matilda; Mary.\nHis lordship wedded secondly, Margaret, daughter of William Burke, of Glinsk, County Galway, by whom he left\nCatherine; Elizabeth.\nTHOMAS, 3rd Earl (1803-74), Knight of St Patrick, 1835, Vice-Admiral of the Province of Leinster, Lord-Lieutenant of County Dublin, 1851-74, who espoused, in 1826, the Lady Emily de Burgh, daughter of the 1st Marquess of Clanricarde KP, and had issue,\nWILLIAM ULICK TRISTRAM, his successor;\nEmily; Catherine Elizabeth; Mary.\nHis lordship's only son and heir,\nWILLIAM ULICK TRISTRAM, 4th Earl (1827-1909), KP,\nCaptain, 7th Hussars 1847-50; High Sheriff of County Dublin, 1854; State Steward to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, 1855-58 and 1859-66; MP for Galway Borough, 1868-74; Vice-Admiral of the Province of Leinster; Knight of St Patrick, 1884.\nThe 4th Earl died without male issue, in 1909, when the titles expired.\nHOWTH CASTLE, County Dublin, has been the stronghold of the St Lawrence family for hundreds of years.\nInitially a timber fort was built on Tower Hill before a permanent stone-walled Norman castle was constructed.\nThe residence gradually evolved over the centuries into a palatial mansion.\nThe architect Sir Edwin Lutyens restyled the current castle built in 1464.\nHowth Castle is possibly the oldest family home in Ireland.\nDuring the period when many of the remaining castles and houses of the Anglo-Irish landed families were destroyed by republicans, Howth Castle remained untouched.\nIn 1576, it is said that after the pirate Grace O'Malley was refused entry to Howth Castle, she captured the Earl of Howth's grandson. He was released on condition that in future, unexpected visitors would be recieved at Howth Castle. The St Lawrence family proudly continued this tradition for centuries.\nBurke's describes Howth Castle as being a rambling and romantic castle on the Hill of Howth, which forms part of the northern side of Dublin Bay.\nIt is basically a massive medieval keep, with corner towers crenellated in the Irish \"crow-step\" fashion, to which additions have been made through its 800 years.\nAlmeric built his castle of wood above the harbour but it is evident from a deed that by 1235 a new castle had been built on the present site in the middle of the fertile land.\nThis again would have been built in wood.\nThe earliest extant parts of the present structure date from the mid-fifteenth century.\nThe house has been extensively altered by succeeding generations to adapt it to their times, most notably in 1738, when the house took on its current appearance and again in 1911 when Sir Edwin Lutyens renovated and added to the house.\nIt is still possible to see evidence of the alterations that have been made and infer what was there before. This gives a remarkable insight into how historic houses evolved in Ireland over the centuries.\nThe current building is not the original Howth Castle, which was on the high slopes by the village and the sea.\nThe English architect Sir Edwin Lutyens restyled a 14th century castle built here, overlooking Dublin Bay.\nParts of the original bawn and towers survive though mainly encased in later additions \u2013 the large gateway tower is illustrated here.\nDuring 1910-11 he added or renovated the tower, loggia, corridors, library, and a chapel.\nHe added a three-bay two-storey library block, built 1910 in tower house form, with basement and dormer attic.\nSquare plan corner turrets to south-west and north-east facades. Incorporating fabric of earlier structures, 1738 and ca 1840.\nOver the previous hundred years or so, the list of architects who have worked on the castle or proposed alterations included: Richard Morrison (1810) for a Gothic gateway, for William St Lawrence, 2nd Earl; Francis Johnston proposed alterations in 1825, as did James Pain; Francis Bindon proposed alterations in 1838.\nRichard Morrison partly executed his planned alterations of around 1840 including gothicization of the stables.\nPrincipal rooms of note include the dining-room, the library and the chapel.\nHowth Castle remains the private residence of the Gaisford-St Lawrence family.\nThe house is not normally open to the public, but the family recognises that there is an understandable interest in it and its contents.\nThe fact that the house has been home to the same family for so long is what makes it unique.\nUnlike many other houses of its size it is not a museum or a hotel but a home.\nThe Kitchen in the Castle Cookery School, which operates from the original Georgian kitchen in the house gives a wide range of courses and demonstrations through the year.\nIn 1892, Rosa Mulholland referred to the grounds thus:\n\u201cBack on the lower land you must visit the ancient demesne of the Earl of Howth, where a quaint old castle stands in a prim garden with swan-inhabited pond, and plashing fountain, encircled by dark beautiful woods full of lofty cathedral-like aisles, moss carpeted, and echoing with the cawing of rooks.\"\nIn recent years, the 17th classical landscape was totally obliterated to make for a golf course.\nThe grounds are noted for the wild rhododendron gardens, which are open to the public in summer and some of the oldest, planted in 1710, beech hedges.\nThe castle itself is not open to the public.\nThe \"Kitchen in the Castle Cookery School\" is based in the restored Georgian kitchens of Howth Castle.\nThe National Transport Museum of Ireland is located in the grounds of the castle. It features lorries, trucks, fire engines and tractors.\nAlso within the grounds are the Deer Park Hotel and its associated golf courses.\nFirst published in August, 2011. Howth arms courtesy of European Heraldry.\nThe house is now open to the public, one day a week, please refer to their website for hours of entry.\nThe 1st Marquess of Clanricarde is given as born at Belmont (of all places) in Hampshire. This one is just north of Southampton in what is now Portswood. Jane Austen has a Lady de Burgh/Bourgh in her novel \"Pride and Prejudice\". Given who else is nearby and their connections is it certain that Jane knew who was who.",

        "raw_content": "Imagitec Design / Atari Interactive\nAbstract / Multiplayer\nZeldaDoritos:\nZeldaDoritos (2014-11-05) [hide]\nI should point out that Tempest 2000 itself isn't a very good game when it counts, but that long story is in the article for the original version, as it should be. This article focuses on the porting job by itself, and unlike many other games Tempest 2000 actually benefits.\nThis is a fairly well-known port of the fairly well-known Jaguar game\u2026 it's also fairly bashed. The thing is that the Jaguar version really isn't all that it's made out to be. I believe that this PC port is actually the second best version after the Saturn version, and I suggest that every fan of Tempest 2000 own both of these.\nIt should be noted that this port was developed by Imagitec Design, a company I haven't quite figured out\u2026 they appear to be both the code monkeys Jeff Minter commanded and the musicians behind every bit of the soundtrack. It should also be noted that this is not the Interplay release, but the earlier Atari Interactive one; I have no idea what the changes are as the Atari one is the only one I have and the only one around the Internet\u2026 I need to fix that, the Interplay version is a lot easier to find\u2026 Anyway, here's what the PC version does and doesn't have:\nUnfortunately, the fancy melting graphics and the full Gouraud shading of the original are gone; fortunately, the Saturn version has them. Not much more to say on that, though I prefer the less-psychedelic look on this PC port. The nice new menu is psychedelic enough for me, I suppose.\nTraditional mode is gone. As mentioned in the Jaguar review, Traditional mode is also pointless, and was even called rubbish by the designer\u2026 and I don't always trust in designer remarks! Traditional is just Plus with graphics based on the original Tempest, which in theory makes all the graphics more consistent\u2026 yet something still seems wrong somehow. At any rate, if you want the real Tempest Plus, it's right there; and if you want the real Tempest, a game very different from 2000, go have a look at the great MAME emulation of it.\nThe music is very different. You are given a choice between internal synth (in AdLib/SoundBlaster and Roland flavors) and the soundtrack album, though one of the many unused tracks of it are missing. The album already puts this lightyears above the Jaguar version, but the internal synth doesn't use the worse-than-SNES sample system of the Jaguar so that actually sounds pretty good! The internal also has completely unique tunes, seemingly courtesy of Imagitec, with at least one of those being a synth version of Hyper Prism (got a kick out of that the first time I heard it).\nOther things include there seemingly being no level cheat (it's likely hidden somewhere and has never been put on the Internet), and a small graphical bug involving scores. Small stuff, really\u2026 skipping to the later levels is simply not going to do you any good.\nThis is all heresy, I know; people adore the barely-there songs of the original and utterly despise the wonderful full album\u2026 no, no, I'm sorry, but those people are insane and have zero understanding of music.\nAll in all, the thing about this port is that it's good as a port while also being unique in this or that way. Meanwhile, there's the Saturn version which is basically the Jaguar version with the major non-gameplay flaw (the soundtrack) fixed. This is why I insist that both are worth owning, as far as T2K goes.\nReview by ZeldaDoritos (2014-11-05): Tempest 2000 (Jaguar)\nReview by Magmon (2017-02-05): Tempest 2000 (Jaguar)\nTempest 2000 (Jaguar)\nWebwarp\nLongplay (Jaguar)\nMagmon (2017-02-05):\nThe Tempest games are really like nothing else. You control a ship that looks strikingly like a crab claw at the top of a 3D grid. Enemies travel up the grid, and your goal is to shoot down at them before they can get to the top, circle around, and drag you to the bottom. There are a handful of power-ups to collect, but these only persist until the end of the grid. These include a more powerful shot, the ability to jump and kill enemies that do get to the top with some good reflexes, and an AI second ship that patrols the top with you and fires with the same beam that you have at the time. Simple, classic arcade game play unlike anything to this day.\nRichNagel (2015-01-21):\n\"Other things include there seemingly being no level cheat (it's likely hidden somewhere and has never been put on the Internet)\"\nThat is, until NOW -> http://www.gamefaqs.com/pc/198903-tempest-2000/cheats ... unearthed by myself just a few days ago",

        "raw_content": "2136 down, 0 to go\nI\u2019ve been putting the standard \u201cj\u014dy\u014d kanji\u201d in my collection of items to memorize, adding seven a week; this week, I finally reached the end of the list. I\u2019ve skipped the occasional week, but not very many; that suggests that it\u2019s probably taken me about six years. Long enough, in fact, that the list was updated once during that time period, adding an additional 196 characters.\nThe book that I\u2019ve used as reference for this is Hadamitzky and Spahn\u2019s Japanese Kanji and Kana , and I highly recommend it; I actually own all three editions of it (I got it when I was flirting with learning the language back in grad school, and it\u2019s been revised as the list has expanded), and it\u2019s very solid. It\u2019s a good presentation of the basics of Japanese writing (not just the kanji list, but also information about kana, punctuation, radicals, etc.), it presents all the characters cleanly (including stroke order), it gives a nice selection of readings and definitions for each character without overwhelming you with possibilities for either.\nAnd I will say: it\u2019s a little odd for a six-year project to come to an end! Nice to have evidence that I can stick with something like that, though. But of course the project of learning Japanese as a whole hasn\u2019t come to an end: which raises the question of what, if anything, I should replace this with?\nOne possibility is: more kanji! I have another dictionary around; it looks a lot larger, but there are only 5446 characters in it. And I already have learned some number of characters that aren\u2019t in the standard list, so I\u2019m probably around halfway through the book already, maybe more. Another possibility would be to go back through the standard list, but this time focusing on writing: you don\u2019t really know how a character if you can both recognize and produce it, and even if you only care about reading, if you can\u2019t write a given character, it\u2019s easy to mistake other similar characters for that one.\nI think, though, that I am not going to pursue either of those paths. Memorizing is all well and good, but I should focus on using the language, not learning for the sake of checking off boxes. So I want to spend more time reading, and have my memorization driven by that. I\u2019ll add vocabulary words as they come up and seem important, and I\u2019ll probably go more out of my way to add individual characters in compounds if I\u2019m not already familiar with them, but I should really be spending time putting as many sentences in front of my eyes as possible. (I probably should be spending time speaking, too, but for better or for worse I\u2019ve decided not to go back to lessons for the time being.)\nI\u2019m actually trying to dial back the memorization in other ways: in particular, I flirted with learning Chinese starting three or four years back, and while I won\u2019t say that was a mistake, it\u2019s also not something that I want to spend more time on beyond listening to podcasts a few days a week. And I\u2019m a lot less solid on Chinese vocabulary than Japanese vocabulary, which means that they show up rather more often in my memorization quizzes than I\u2019d like; so I\u2019ve started deleting almost all of the Chinese words as they show up. (I\u2019m leaving in core Chinese vocabulary, numbers and a few other basic words/expressions, but getting rid of everything else.)\nInstead, reading. I\u2019m over halfway through Hikaru no Go ; really enjoying that (enough that I sometimes read some after I come home from work, not just over weekends), and it\u2019s at a good level for me. I also found two bilingual collections of stories that look good, I have high hopes for them. (I\u2019ve just started the first one.) I\u2019m not entirely sure what I\u2019ll replace Hikaru with once I\u2019m done with it; maybe Buddha ? (I picked up a copy of the first volume on the trip, we\u2019ll see how the reading level is.) I expect I\u2019ll stick with books where I have an English version readily available for some time (though I have hopes that maybe I\u2019ll be able to read Twelve Kingdoms well enough that I\u2019ll eventually be able to make it beyond where the English translations run out, but who knows.\nIt\u2019s been a fun trip.\n\u00ab on estimation\nCongratulations! Well done :)\nMyself, I recently started learning Japanese (for real \u2013 have tried multiple times, but this time I am sticking to it). In fact, I\u2019ve always wanted to learn the language, but some of your recent blog posts helped to push me over the starting line (something you wrote about \u201cbeing able to prove to yourself that you are still able to learn something as difficult and new as a whole language).\nI am using TextFugu.com as my main learning source.\nAlso, I just started using WaniKani.com for learning kanji. If you don\u2019t know that site already, you should definitely check it out! :)\nThanks, and best of luck in your own efforts! Thanks for the links, too; I really like TextFugu\u2019s preparatory questions/advice in particular.\nI just found a new website that you might want to check out: https://www.verbling.com/\nIt\u2019s a neat way for two people to learn from each other. When I get better at Japanese, I definitely would like to try it out myself.",

        "raw_content": "This week I\u2019ve had two clients for whom overcoming procrastination has been an issue, this set me thinking, how big and serious an issue is procrastination anyway? Looking back over my years as both a therapist and an educator of therapists I\u2019ve seen the problem occur again and again. Even though it\u2019s usually part of a wider issue, I thought for this month\u2019s blog I\u2019d take a look at overcoming procrastination.\nOvercoming procrastination \u2013 What is procrastination?\nTypically dictionary definitions define procrastination as \u2018to put off or defer a task\u2019. For our purposes we will use a definition which explicitly includes the idea that to procrastinate is detrimental to the self. A typical example would be a student who puts off writing an essay and then has to stay up all night swigging on endless energy drinks to avoid failing.\nThis kind of behaviour is all too common with one study (Solomon & Rothblum 1984) find that as many as 46% of students delay work. But procrastination may not always be bad. In an oft quoted statement Bernstein (1998, from Steel 2007) wrote, \u201cOnce we act, we forfeit the option of waiting\u201d. More than one student has pointed out to me that the less time they have the more efficiently they work. Which is fine, until your broadband fails. The available research on procrastination is damning. Studies show that procrastinators experience both more stress and higher levels of illness. (Tice & Baumeister 1997)\nOvercoming procrastination \u2013 Causes of procrastination?\nThere are several causes of procrastination. A person may experience different ones at different times and to varying degrees. Below I give the four most commonly identified by research.\n\u00b7 Fear of failure (Solomon & Rothblum 1984, Steele 2007). \u2013 Nobody likes to fail even though getting things wrong is inherently a part of the learning process. Fear of failure can be due to a general lack of confidence or a lack of confidence in a specific situation. Whichever at its base is the logical \u201cIf I don\u2019t do anything I can\u2019t get anything wrong\u201d.\n\u00b7 Self-efficacy (Solomon & Rothblum 1984, Steele 2007, Wolters 2003) \u2013 This refers to a person\u2019s ability to do the task. This differs from fear of failure in that the task at hand will always be in a stretch where efficacy is the issue, whereas fear of failure can occur even with task is within the procrastinators abilities. Typically self-efficacy issues arise when the person does not know how the task should be conducted, or the task is too large from them to see how it will end, or because it is so far beyond their abilities that they cannot see themselves doing it.\n\u00b7 Aversion to the task (Solomon & Rothblum 1984, Steele 2007). \u2013 This means that the task is unpleasant in some way (boring, dirty etc) and as such people delay doing it.\n\u00b7 Achievement motivation and impulsivity (Steele 2007, Wolters 2003). \u2013 With this there are two personality characteristics which may affect a person\u2019s ability to get things done. A person who is \u2018achievement motivated\u2019, actively interested in obtaining qualifications, skills, trophies and knowledge is less likely to procrastinate. However, someone with low impulse control (who could be the same person) will have higher levels of procrastination due to being easily distracted, sometimes onto things which have a secondary effect on productivity.\nOvercoming procrastination \u2013 strategies\nHow you might approach tackling your procrastination may change with the cause of that procrastination. Below is a list of possible strategies which you may find helpful, and for which causes they are more likely to be better.\nOvercoming procrastination \u2013 Goal setting\nHow you might approach tackling your procrastination may change with the cause of that procrastination. Below is a list of possible strategies which you may find helpful, and for which cause they are more likely to be better.\n\u00b7 Goal setting \u2013 Imagine seeing yourself when the work is done. Visualising a reward: a good grade, the time you have released by finishing early, may help. In addition, imagine yourself overcoming the challenges along the way to completing the task. This is as important as seeing the end result as it is often one of the stages along the way which is the true barrier. This is good most of the time but especially when self-efficacy and fear of failure are the causal factors.\n\u00b7 Task planning \u2013 work through the entire project/task and break it down into small \u2018Bites\u2019. This can prevent the task from being overwhelming. In addition, it is good at providing a sense of understanding and ownership over the task, which will make it easier. This is good when self-efficacy issues are a problem.\n\u00b7 Self-imposed deadlines (Ariely & Wertenbroch 2002). \u2013 Putting your own deadline in ahead of an external deadline has been demonstrated to reduce procrastination. This is especially true when there is some punishment attached to missing your own deadline.\n\u00b7 Desensitization. \u2013 If you have something short but unpleasant to do you will find that the old mantra of \u201cdo it!\u201d is often the best. However, should that prove ineffective then calming yourself down with a recording of relaxation or Mindfulness and then imagining going through the process will help. Should this not, you may have to consult a therapist.\n\u00b7 Regular breaks \u2013 If you have a long dull task to complete then giving yourself regular breaks can help. This both breaks the task up, making it less intimidating, but also allow for a resurgence of mental energy. With most work 50 minutes with a 10 minute break is a good formula.\n\u00b7 Developing resilience \u2013 If you feel that fear of failure is the issue then a cognitive approach may be best. This involves identifying what you currently believe, for example \u201cif I get it wrong that would be awful\u201d and reworking that to something more resilience orientated \u201cif I get it wrong that would be bad, but it\u2019s not the end of the world\u201d. Then repeating this as a mantra as you head into the task. You may find it helpful to write it down and on your break reminding yourself of this.\n\u00b7 Reduce distractions \u2013 this is really for those people who feel that they are highly impulsive. It may require you to; turn off your mobile (check in on breaks), go to the library, put a \u2018do not disturb\u2019 sign up, put on music to cut out external noise (I usually recommend instrumental music as lyrics can in themselves be distracting). Plan work for times and days when others are likely to be engaged elsewhere.\nThese techniques are only a few which could be of benefit, the trick is to identify what is the major cause of your procrastination and that will help you to address it. In the worse cases get in touch with a therapist who will help you through it (try \u2013 www.hypnotherapy-directory.org.uk )\nThe author \u2013 Matt Krouwel is a hypnotherapist with extensive experience of confidence and anxiety work.\nOver coming procrastination \u2013 Reference\nAriely, D., & Wertenbroch, K.

        "title": "Will foreign policy matter for the Democrats in 2020?",
        "raw_content": "Will foreign policy matter for the Democrats in 2020?\nIllustrated | Ethan Miller/Getty Images, Scott Eisen/Getty Images, FilmColoratStudio/iStock\nIn the 2004 and 2008 Democratic primaries, foreign policy was probably the most important topic of discussion. Since then, the subject has largely fallen by the wayside, as the population has stopped paying attention to the war in Afghanistan, and the dozens of other overseas interventions have been small enough (at least in terms of American casualties) to be easily overlooked.\nHowever, this may change in 2020. Unlike in 2012, the economy is (fingers crossed) doing okay. And unlike in 2016, there is a major foreign policy question to draw everyone's attention \u2014 namely, how Trump has justified Saudi Arabia's butchering of a legal America resident, and how he has enabled an accelerating genocide in Yemen. It raises the question: Will the next Democratic nominee develop an alternative foreign policy to the neocon-lite imperialism that has dominated the party for over a decade?\nLet's review some history. In 2004, the Democrats nominated John Kerry, a critic of the Iraq War who also voted for it. In 2008, they nominated Barack Obama over Hillary Clinton specifically because he did not support the war, but he proceeded to put Clinton in charge of the State Department and went on to conduct a foreign policy that only looks peaceable when compared to that of his predecessor, George W. Bush. Obama did push through the nuclear deal with Iran, but he also unleashed aggressive drone strikes, including the assassination of American citizens (including a 16-year-old boy) without any due process, and backed the Saudi war in Yemen for its first two years.\nIn the 2016 primary, Clinton's leftist challenger Bernie Sanders was palpably rusty on foreign policy at first, allowing one of his strongest angles of attack against her to lay fallow for months. She won, of course, making her probably the most belligerent Democratic nominee since Lyndon Johnson.\nHowever, Sanders has considerably upped his game since then. During the campaign, he rapidly fleshed out a pretty solid foreign policy framework, and afterwards snapped up some key staffers. He's since delivered two major speeches, one outlining a basic foreign policy framework for the United States, and one advocating for a new progressive internationalism (with some help from former Greek Finance Minister Yanis Varoufakis). The idea clearly is to position Sanders as the candidate of peace, restraint, and calm international relations for 2020.\nElizabeth Warren, also positioning herself for 2020, has lately been trying to claim a bit of that ground herself. In a big speech last week, she outlined a foreign policy that would overhaul the broken international trade regime, wind down the war in Afghanistan, and stand up to the alliance of corrupt right-wing authoritarians. It's a bit of a change of tune for Warren, who used to sound very Clinton-esque on issues like Israel, and voted for Trump's defense bill last year, but on the whole it was a solid speech.\nThat brings me back to Yemen, Trump, and Saudi Arabia. The striking thing about the president's overt justification of the Saudis butchering American resident and Washington Post journalist Jamal Khashoggi is how perfectly it encapsulates the false picture of American \"interests\" that has dominated U.S. foreign policy for decades. After detailing the supposed huge investments Saudi Arabia is making in the U.S., and how they're keeping oil cheap, Trump insists that \"America is pursuing its national interests.\"\nOf course, Trump exaggerated the scope of Saudi investment by at least a factor of 30. But as Greg Sargent and Matt Yglesias argue, even aside from that hyperbole, his argument is an absolute crock. Just on a very cynical oil-for-alliance understanding of American interests, cheap Saudi gasoline is not so good when the president looks the other way when the failson dictator of that country murders American residents. Red-blooded patriots can't enjoy their Cadillac Escalades when they've been deposited in several different trash cans around Riyadh.\nBy a less cynical but more realistic view, cheap oil is bad because it harms American oil producers \u2014 who actually pump out more barrels than Saudi Arabia these days. By an even less cynical but more realistic still view, cheap oil is bad because it fuels climate change, which is going to severely harm the United States if it isn't stopped. And on purely moral grounds (which certainly is related to the national interest, if indirectly), murder is wrong.\nSomething similar is true for the genocidal Saudi war in Yemen. This conflict, which has already killed tens of thousands of people and is could kill millions more through famine and disease, is a strategic disaster for the U.S. Helping Saudi wedding- and schoolchildren-bombers with targeting and logistics (American forces were helping refuel them as well until recently, but they reportedly don't need that anymore), deeply implicates the United States with the worst humanitarian catastrophe in decades. It grossly harms our reputation, stokes furious hatred in the hearts of millions \u2014 oh, and Saudi Arabia is literally arming and paying al Qaeda as part of the effort \u2014 and for what? So a couple hundred defense contractors can have a third Jacuzzi in their McLean McMansions, and a couple hundred Saudi lickspittles at various suborned D.C. \"think tanks\" and lobbying shops can continue to collect their blood money salaries? No matter how you define it, that is not in the same galaxy as the national interest.\nThe question for 2020 is whether this will be much of a point of contention. Indeed, the Yemen disaster is so bad that Sanders teamed up with Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah) to push through a bill ending all U.S. involvement in the conflict, which recently passed overwhelmingly. Still, the liberal imperialist wing of the Democratic Party is strong, which is probably why even Sanders and Warren have yet to lay out a really stark moral case for imperial rollback. But if Trump continues to enable the Yemen conflict, it may turn out that McGovern-style anti-imperialist politics will make a comeback. In any case, would-be 2020 contenders would be wise to develop a sensible, moral foreign policy platform.",

        "raw_content": "The conversation revolved around various ways that we derive our self worth, and I shared with my friend a phrase that had come to me \u2013 emotional casino. He thought it aptly described how we often look to our feelings for validation and the gamble that it is \u2013 to live life based on how you feel or on how you think others feel about you. Yet, God created us with the wonderful ability to sense and perceive.\nI can only guess the level of pleasure and enjoyment that our first parents experienced in the Garden of Eden. They were not unfeeling droids, robotically relating to God, the animals, and the rest of the created order. The first human beings were perceiving \u2013 beauty, pleasure, joy, and contentment, in the fullest measure possible. Only Jesus, knew gladness at a more intense level. Heb. 1:9 Thankfully, our Lord and Savior is one to share, thus abundant life is ours through the Gospel.\nFollowing his teaching on abiding in the true Vine, Jesus makes it clear that joy is to be our portion: \u201cThese things I have spoken to you, that My joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be full.\u201d Jn. 15:11 The Gospel writer reiterates this a few years later, telling the world in essence: Encountering God with your senses will result in the fullness of joy. 1 Jn. 1:1-4 All of which to me begs the question, Can I really encounter God at a sensory level, every single day? The answer is a resounding \u201cYes\u201d, although we must clarify that \u201cjoy\u201d is not the ONLY emotion we are destined to feel. If it were, then we would be visiting the emotional casino every day, waking up to roll the dice to determine if God was going to be present for us today or not. This is one of our enemy\u2019s favorite diversions, and a road much traveled, by bankrupt Christians who invested all or nothing, based on their feelings alone.\nReady for a pendulum swing? Here\u2019s a bold statement that wonderfully complicates the manner in which we encounter God, based on the experience of Jesus. \u201cThough he was God\u2019s Son, he learned trusting-obedience by what he suffered, just as we do. Then, having arrived at the full stature of his maturity and having been announced by God as high priest in the order of Melchizedek, he became the source of eternal salvation to all who believingly obey him.\u201d Heb. 5:8-10 (MSG) Why do I day wonderfully complicates? Because it gives me the reassurance that no matter how I may feel on any given day, that I am following in the footsteps of the Son of God, who fully understands the wonder and fascination of knowing God at every level of human experience. \u201cWe don\u2019t have a priest who is out of touch with our reality. He\u2019s been through weakness and testing, experienced it all\u2014all but the sin. So let\u2019s walk right up to him and get what he is so ready to give. Take the mercy, accept the help.\u201d Heb. 4:15-16 (MSG)\nAs a young man, newly born again 43 years ago, I knew feelings of true joy for the very first time. These wonderful emotions ran unabated for several months. The man who led me to faith in Christ, gave me a booklet to read, entitled Four Spiritual Laws.* It explained that just as the universe has natural laws, there are also spiritual laws. One particular page had an illustration of a train with three cars. The first car (engine) was FACT, representing the trustworthiness of God and the promises in his Word. The second car was FAITH, our trust in God and his Word. The third car (caboose) was FEELINGS, the anticipated result of our faith and obedience. My early Christian life was marked by this truth: the train will run without the caboose and I must never allow my life to be led only by emotions. Ever see a caboose as the engine?\nThere is a population of deceived Christians, who have left the staight and narrow path of life, to pursue what appears to be a more \u201cfeel good\u201d opportunity, not restricted by the constraints of faith, suffering, and perseverance. This is a gamble that will never pay off in the long run. I prefer the path trodden by the Son. Wiithout a doubt, this is a sure bet.\n* Written by Bill Bright, founder of Campus Crusade.

        "raw_content": "Dec 23, 2015\tby\tChris Seaton\t-\nMom Leaves Pot Brownie On Sink, Spends Christmas Without Kid\nDec. 23, 2015 (Mimesis Law) \u2014 Small children have a tendency to eat things they\u2019re not supposed to touch. Sometimes ingestion of that particular item or substance can have adverse consequences. In the case of Vanessa Rodriguez, her daughter\u2019s ingestion of less than a bite of one marijuana brownie means child endangerment charges and a holiday without her daughter.\nVanessa Rodriguez, 28, admitted to cops that she left the marijuana-laced brownie on a counter in her Heberton Ave. home in Port Richmond on Tuesday, intending to toss it in the trash, according to court papers.\nThe next thing she knew, she saw that her kid \u201clooked a bit loopy,\u201d and took her into the shower, the papers said.\nThe girl still looked \u201ca bit out of it,\u201d Rodriguez told police. \u201cAt this point I saw the brownie in the sink. There was less than a bite missing.\u201d\nVanessa then took her daughter to the hospital, ostensibly out of concern and a desire to see any potential issues treated. Once the treating physicians performed a urine test on Vanessa\u2019s daughter and found THC in her system, phone calls were made to the police and the City\u2019s Administration for Children\u2019s Services. Merry Christmas, Vanessa. Your gift is a holiday without your daughter and fighting misdemeanor charges in court.\nPolice arrested Rodriguez on Wednesday. She\u2019s charged with endangering the welfare of a child, a misdemeanor, said a spokesman for acting Staten Island District Attorney Daniel Master.\nIt\u2019s not like the hospital staff had any say in the matter. The New York State Office of Children and Family Services says that certain groups of people are mandated to \u201creport suspected cases of child abuse and maltreatment.\u201d One of those groups happens to be medical and hospital personnel, so one would think the treating physicians and nurses were simply doing their job.\nThe kicker in the above quote from the Office of Children and Family Services\u2019 website is that bolded word, \u201csuspected.\u201d The treating physician and nursing staff who handled the care of Vanessa Rodriguez\u2019s daughter could have taken the time to question Rodriguez, use the brains that earned them the ability to practice some form of medicine, and determine whether this was actually a case of child abuse and maltreatment. The cynic in me says once the urinalysis revealed THC in the child\u2019s system, judgment was thrown out the window and phone calls got made.\nIt\u2019s way too easy to predict Vanessa Rodriguez\u2019s fate. New York State has a \u201cCentral Register\u201d of people \u201csubstantiated\u201d of child abuse and neglect, just like Tennessee and Michigan . Vanessa\u2019s was probably \u201csubstantiated,\u201d so there goes her ability to find employment with children, work in areas with children, or adopt another child, should she choose to do so.\nRodriguez will have to work through her misdemeanor charges, paying for legal fees and any court costs that stem from the proceedings. She will have to navigate the byzantine rules of New York State\u2019s Office of Children and Family Services, and abide by their every whim in order to see her two year old daughter again. When New York State attempts to justify the separation of the Rodriguez family, she will more than likely have charges fall under the category of \u201cChild Maltreatment,\u201d which the Office of Children and Family Services says includes \u201clack of supervision.\u201d\nI\u2019m still scratching my head over where the \u201clack of supervision\u201d comes from this case. Rodriguez saw her daughter was \u201cacting loopy,\u201d and took the child to the hospital when it became clear at-home treatment would not suffice. Because the work of well-intentioned social workers willing to do anything \u201cfor the good of children\u201d is a tale as old as time, I suspect the court documents will point to the existence of a marijuana brownie in the home and that Rodriguez left her two-year-old daughter in or near the presence of it long enough of her to take a bite as justification for \u201clack of supervision.\u201d Shamira Gonzalez, one of Vanessa\u2019s friends, seems to think the entire case is unfounded and that Rodriguez did the right thing by her daughter.\nRodriguez\u2019s longtime friend, Shamira Gonzalez, defended her as a loving mother of five, and called the case a misunderstanding.\nGonzalez, 27, offered a different version of what happened.\n\u201cSomebody gave it to her at a Christmas party. At that point, she didn\u2019t know what it was.\u201d\nThe brownie tasted bad, so Rodriguez tossed it into the trash, and the girl fished it out, according to Gonzalez.\n\u201cShe didn\u2019t know any better. She just saw chocolate \u2026 She must have tasted it and spit it out. The piece that was there only had a little bite.\u201d\nGonzalez said Rodriguez was a responsible parent.\n\u201cShe took her to the hospital, like any good mother. She thought it tasted bad. She didn\u2019t think it had marijuana,\u201d Gonzalez said.\nUnfortunately for Gonzalez, the State of New York has determined her assessment of Vanessa Rodriguez\u2019s parenting skills was wrong. She is a Bad Parent because the Office of Children and Family Services said so, and now Rodriguez and her two year old daughter will spend the holidays apart. The next time Rodriguez sees her daughter, it could again be in a hospital. This time with a feeding tube inserted and a friendly social worker asking if Vanessa Rodriguez has life insurance on her daughter. It\u2019s not like it hasn\u2019t happened before.\nMy Fault Lines colleague, Ken Womble, mused when alerting me of this story \u201cTis the season for giving (children life long trauma).\u201d Truer words were never spoken.\nchild protectionfault linesmarijuanaVanessa Rodriguez\nIt seems to me like it has less to do with mom leaving a pot brownie out (allegedly), but with a mom having pot at all. It makes it very easy for ACS or CPS to use marijuana as a bright line rule. Has pot, bad parent. No pot, potentially not a bad parent. But only the most naive among us would think that a parent that safely indulges in an occasional toke or two is unfit in any way.\nAh yes, the dread marihuana\u2026that which makes your wives, sisters and daughters listen to the jazz music and sleep with minorities. Hey, Harry Anslinger said it, I daresay most CPS workers are forced to watch \u201cReefer Madness\u201d for their training, so that means yes. Pot=bad parent.\nBut at this point we honestly don\u2019t know if it\u2019d be what they call \u201cLack of supervision,\u201d \u201cdrug exposed child,\u201d or whatever, because the DCS/ACS/CPS/You Pick An Acronym proceedings are by and large confidential and closed door. They make you sign forms in Tennessee on admin hearings over DCS stuff that the entire proceeding is confidential and that you can\u2019t use any testimony or evidence presented in an actual, big-boy court.\nOne thing that raises my blood pressure a few points. They wear badges, have acronyms and job titles like CPS, FSW, and more, and yet they are subject to less scrutiny than cops. And they can take your kids and ruin your life with the authority of the state.\nIndividual, and societal risk from a kid taking less than a bite of a pot brownie is far less than the harm taking this parent away from the kid will bring.\nThis brings to mind the post a while back from Matt Brown entitled \u201cWhen the Choice Is Medical Care or Jail\u201d about the policy of deporting people seeking treatment.\nAt some point, you need to look at the effects of your policy to determine if they create a greater harm.\nThe infuriating thing is that they do look at their policies. They just try to figure out ways to create greater harm and get more taxpayer dollars, and then justify it because it\u2019s good to protect kids.\nAnd no one can argue that. We all want kids protected. And there are kids in CPS\u2019s purview who have been through some tragic stuff.\nBut you are dead on the money about the harm to this two year old.\nJust recently in Calif. there were two dead children (last name Tara\u2019s) from alledge abuse from the aunt. From what I understand the local Social Services was aware of problems within that family. I believe the elder sister was found neglected and abused too. (She is alive).\nSo I don\u2019t understand how wide the range of CPS attention can be regarding addressing issues of potential child abuse. Obviously the Tara children\u2019s case is a tragic extreme case. I wonder how CPS did not adequately address that tragic issue and yet have this mother (& her childj) who you described go through which would appear to me such extreme measures. I know that I am not an expert of how a Social worker operates but truly I don\u2019t understand such a divergent approach to those separate situations.\nThere are three answers to that which you address.\nThe first is the view of the average CPS worker: There\u2019s only so much time, money, and energy we have, and there\u2019s so many kids and so many calls and so much we have to do with so little resources.\nThe second is that from those who\u2019ve worked juvenile justice: there\u2019s \u201ccode words\u201d that will make a call to a child abuse hotline get flagged for a referral, and there\u2019s ones that will make the bad DCS people go away. And when DCS/CPS gets involved on a case, they\u2019re not looking to help. They\u2019re there to figure out how quickly to take the child and put them where they please.\nThe third is simply social workers that handle these jobs mean well and can\u2019t do them. And I believe there\u2019s something in a proverb about how the road to hell is paved\u2026",

Levine; Remembering Vigilance in the Age of Technology. ASA Monitor 2017;81(1):18-20.\nNo matter where we go or what we do, technology is an integral and ever-increasing part of our lives. This is true in our homes, our cars and certainly in our O.R. and non-O.R. procedural areas. Over the past 50 years, technology has flourished within the periprocedural world, significantly improving patient safety with real, measurable reductions in morbidity and mortality.1\nWe have come a long way since the days of William Morton.2 Our first ether anesthetics, documented on paper records in 1895, contained little more than observations of pulse, respiration and temperature (Figure 1).3 Pulse oximetry, auto-cycling non-invasive blood pressure and disconnect alarms all evolved in the 1970s and 1980s, improving clinical workflow and patient safety.4,5 The late 1990s saw the advent of infusion pumps with drug libraries that are now the standard of care throughout the world.6 The early 2000s brought development of brain state monitoring7 and the past decade has seen the rise of cerebral oximetry.8 The next decade promises to bring improved brain state monitoring with real-time, target-controlled anesthesia.9\nDon't lose low-tech in high-tech medicine\nI applaud the authors' warning about distractions. When I was learning to fly a small plane, my instructor would try to bombard me with distractions to prove a point and then say, \"Stop! Just look out the window and fly the plane.\"\nI have a version of that I use when I teach anesthesia to residents and students. I also encourage them to not fixate on the monitors and devices. In fact, in an era of multiple electronic monitors, there remains tremendous value in actually viewing the patient in front of you (!) and, for example, listening to breath and heart sounds. Pre- and post-procedure, listening to what the patient says, rather than only talking at the patient, will improve both patient safety and satisfaction.\nI tend to be an early adopter of technology, but I also recognize that our brains can assimilate only so much at any one time. We need better clinical decision support in our devices and EHRs in order to overcome our human limitations. We also need to be sure we don't lose sight of the basics of care, while being inundated with data input from all around us.",

        "raw_content": "Salvation is a Gift from God\nPlan of Salvation:\nMost people have heard such terms as being born again, converted, or saved. There are even many people who have had a personal experience of salvation through Jesus Christ. However, there are still multitudes of people who never have accepted this free gift from God. Often people do not understand the purpose of salvation or how it can be obtained. Hopefully the following will help answer some of the most commonly asked questions about salvation.\nSalvation is the free gift of eternal life that is made possible only through Jesus Christ. John 3:16-17 KJV states, \"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.\" The apostle Paul tells us in Romans 6:23 KJV, \"For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.\" Salvation is not limited to any denomination, race, gender, or age, but it is available for everyone. \"For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved\" (Romans 10:13 KJV).\nWhy do you need salvation?\nMankind needs salvation because it is the only way to get to Heaven. Jesus said in John 3:3 KJV, \"Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.\" Everyone will stand before God after death has occurred. \"And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment\" (Hebrews 9:27 KJV). Those who have not been saved will spend eternity separated from God. \"And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire\" (Revelation 20:15 KJV). The penalty of sin that is passed on to all of mankind is death. Jesus Christ became the atonement for all sin. He took our place and died on a cross. Those who accept this plan, which is made possible only by Jesus, will receive forgiveness for their sins and obtain salvation.\nHow do you obtain salvation?\nIn order to be saved you must first realise that you are a sinner and that you cannot make it to heaven on your own good merit. \"As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one\" (Romans 3:10 KJV). \"For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God\" (Romans 3:23 KJV). Secondly, you must recognize that salvation is made possible only by the grace of God. \"For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast\" (Ephesians 2:8-9 KJV). Finally, you must believe in your heart that Jesus Christ died for your sins and that he was raised from the dead. In Romans 10:9-10 KJV, Paul gives specific instructions for salvation. \"That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.\" In the sixteenth chapter of Acts, the Philippian jailor asked Paul and Silas what he must do in order to be saved. Their response to him still applies today. \"Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved\" (Acts 16:31 KJV).\nEvery Person Must Know That...\nI. ...HE IS LOST & IS A SINNER.\nRomans 3:10 - As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:\nRomans 3:23 - For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;\nI John 1:8 - If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.\nIsaish 64:6 - But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.\nEcclesiastes 7:20 - For there is not a just man upon earth, that doeth good, and sinneth not.\nRomans 5:12 - Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:\nII. ...HE IS UNDER THE WRATH OF GOD BECAUSE OF HIS SIN\n& THAT THE PRICE OF SIN IS JUDGMENT,\nWRATH AND HELL.\nRevelation 20:14 - And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.\nEzekiel 18:4b - the soul that sinneth, it shall die.\nIII. ...HE CANNOT SAVE HIMSELF\nTitus 3;5,6 - Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost; Which he shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Saviour;\nRomans 3:20 - Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin.\nEphesians 2:8,9 - For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.\nRomans 11:6 - And if by grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. But if it be of works, then is it no more grace: otherwise work is no more work.\nGalatians 2:16 - Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.\nI John 5:11 - And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.\nIV. ...ONLY JESUS CHRIST CAN SAVE HIM\nHebrews 2:9 - But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; that he by the grace of God should taste death for every man.\nJohn 14:6 - Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.\nI Timothy 2:5 - For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;\nHebrews 7:25 - Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them.\nHebrews 10:10 - By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.\nHebrews 10:19 - Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus,\nI John 1:7 - But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.\nJohn 12:46 - I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on me should not abide in darkness.\nJohn 8:24 - I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins.\nV. ...HE IS SAVED BY FAITH IN JESUS\nGalatians 3:26 - For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.\nRomans 10:9 - That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.\nRomans 3:28 - Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law.\n...this is the witness of God\nwhich he hath testified of his Son.\nHe that believeth on the Son of God\nhath the witness in himself:\nhe that believeth not God hath made him a liar;\nbecause he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son.\nAnd this is the record,\nthat God hath given to us eternal life,\nHe that hath the Son hath life;\nand he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.\nThese things have I written unto you\nthat believe on the name of the Son of God;\nthat ye may know that ye have eternal life,\nand that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.\nI John 5:9b-13\nGRACE\u2026Heaven is A Free Gift\nWe cannot earn our way to heaven, and none of us deserves to go. It is a gift.\nMAN\u2026We Are All Sinners\nEvery person who has ever lived has missed God's standard of perfection.\nGOD\u2026He Loves Us \u201c\u2026God is love.\u201d I John 4:8\nWhile God loves us and does not want to punish us, we should also know that, as a just God, He must punish sin.\n\u201c\u2026the soul that sinneth, it shall die.\u201d Ezekiel 18:4\nCHRIST\u2026God Balanced Justice and Love Through His Son Jesus\nJesus is the infinite God-man, God in the flesh. He died on the cross and rose from the dead to pay the penalty for our sins and to purchase a place for us in heaven, which he offers as a free gift.\nFAITH\u2026The Gift of Eternal Life is Received By Faith\nSaving faith is not merely intellectual assent. It is trusting in Jesus Christ alone and what He has done rather than what we can do to get us to heaven.\n\u201c\u2026what must I do to be saved? ...Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved\u2026\u201d Acts 16:30b, 31\nThe Bible says , \u201cFor whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.\u201d Romans 10:13 You can do that now by simply praying, \u201cLord Jesus, I know I am a sinner and do not deserve eternal life. I believe You died and rose from the grave to purchase a place in heaven for me. Jesus, come into my life, take control of my life, forgive my sins, and save me. I am now placing my trust in You alone for my salvation, and I accept your free gift of eternal life.\u201d If this prayer is the sincere desire of your heart, look at the promise of Jesus, \u201cVerily, verily, I say unto you. He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.\u201d John 6:47",

        "raw_content": "I\u2019m Emmy Louvaris.\nConsecration of Cathedral in Albania\nOur top story this week comes from Tirana, Albania, marking a major milestone in the rebirth of the Orthodox Church which survived totalitarian persecution from 1967 to 1990. The new \u201cResurrection of Christ\u201d Cathedral was consecrated on Sunday, June the 1st by Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew and several other hierarchs including Patriarchs, Archbishops, and the head of the Albanian Orthodox Church, Archbishop Anastasios. Over an oppressive 23 years, the atheist regime destroyed a great number of churches and monasteries or turned them into store-houses, military barracks, and places of entertainment.\nIn 1965, the Old Cathedral in the central square of Tirana was torn down to make way for a 15-story hotel.\nPresently the new complex of \u201cThe Resurrection of Christ\u201d Cathedral is in the center of Tirana, with a Nativity Chapel, bell tower and Synodical Center, and it is clearly seen as the symbol of the Orthodox Church of Albania\u2019s reconstruction since 1991.\nOrthodox Woman Sentenced to Death for Faith\nAnd next up from the Sudan, a story that\u2019s been gaining more and more attention, thanks to reports in major news media outlets and social networks. Meriam Ibrahim, a 27-year-old mother and wife in Sudan has been sentenced to death by hanging, for refusing to denounce her Christian faith, her Orthodox Christian faith to be exact.\nShe\u2019s currently in prison and raising her 20 month old toddler and just gave birth to a baby girl last week on May 27th.\nHow can this be happening in today\u2019s world? Well under the interpretation of Islamic law, the female takes on the father\u2019s religion. Ibrahim\u2019s dad was Muslim and therefore by default, she is considered a Muslim as well.\nHowever, the father left her and her mother when Meriam was 6 years old. An Ethiopian Orthodox Christian, her mother raised her as such and Meriam has always considered herself an Orthodox Christian. Adding a twist to this story, Meriam married a Christian US citizen, which began a torturous legal proceeding when she was turned in to authorities who saw her marriage as invalid, and therefore accused her of being adulterous. As such, she was sentenced to 100 lashes, and asked to renounce her Christian faith by May 15th. She refused by stating, \u201cI am a Christian, and I will remain a Christian.\u201d\nAt the time, 8 months pregnant, in prison, with her wheelchair-bound husband forbidden to see her, the Sudanese court handed out its decision that she would die for apostasy against Islam, after giving birth to her baby, and allowing her to breastfeed for two years.\nBecause of the International outrage and increased pressure surrounding this unbelievable series of events, and with the involvement of Amnesty international, the Sudanese government has considered overturning the decision by taking it through the appeals process, which is currently on going. We will keep you informed in the following weeks of any updates.\nArvo P\u00e4rt Concert\nThe Arvo P\u00e4rt Project sponsored by St. Vladimir\u2019s Seminary was a smashing success, culminating the 3 years of planning with a sold-out performance at Carnegie Hall on Saturday, May 31st. With a sustained standing ovation, a capacity crowd lauded the music of the Estonian Orthodox Christian composer, after a stunning performance of five well-known compositions.\nThis collaboration included Maestro P\u00e4rt and his wife, Nora, who were present at the concert as he made his first New York appearance since 1984. Also traveling from Estonia were the Tallinn Chamber Orchestra, The Estonian Philharmonic, and Conductor T\u00f6nu Kaljuste.\nKnown as the most performed classical and choral composer in the world today, Arvo P\u00e4rt is the winner of numerous awards, including a Grammy nomination for Adam\u2019s Lament in the \u201cBest Contemporary Composition\u201d category, that won the 2014 Grammy for Best Choral Performance.\nHis trademark style has a broad appeal, as evidenced by Saturday night\u2019s audience, which included not only high-ranking clergy from the Orthodox Christian Church, of which Arvo P\u00e4rt is a member, but also Icelandic singer-songwriter Bj\u00f6rk, Vocalist Antony Haggerty, and actor Keanu Reeves, as well as hundreds of admirers from across the U.S. who came to fill Carnegie Hall, including myself.\nEarlier in the day, Arvo P\u00e4rt received an Honorary Doctorate in Sacred Music from St. Vladimir\u2019s Seminary in recognition of his musical contributions to the faith.\nThe overall objective of the Arvo Part Project collaboration was well explained by Fr. John Behr as he prepared to introduce Dr. Peter Bouteneff, co-director of the Project: \u201cThe music of Arvo P\u00e4rt, I would suggest, is one of the greatest works of evangelism for engagement of culture of Orthodoxy in modern times. It has enabled countless people from radically different backgrounds and cultures to hear the divine harmony and silences of Orthodox spirituality. That we might be harmonized to the symphony of salvation.\u201d\nHis Eminence Metropolitan Kallistos Ware, author of The Orthodox Way and an internationally recognized authority on Orthodox theology, will be in Philadelphia at the end of this month. In addition to leading worship at a local Orthodox church, His Eminence will deliver a public lecture at Villanova University on the state of Orthodox-Catholic relations.\nYou can find out more on OCN\u2019s website, myocn.net.\nAnd that\u2019s it for this edition of \u201cThis Week in Orthodoxy.\u201d For everyone here at the OCN studios, I\u2019m Emmy Louvaris.

        "title": "Praxeology: My Reflexions on India: On Narendra Modi and his alleged Free Market Economic Vision",
        "raw_content": "On Narendra Modi and his alleged Free Market Economic Vision\nSo, Narendra Modi and his BJP party won a clear majority in the just concluded 16th Lok Sabha election. On Monday Modi will become the new prime minister of India. The atmosphere all around the country, mostly as seen in the mainstream media frenzy, is euphoric at this moment of so-called historic win of Modi. Most people see Modi as some kind of messiah who will save this country from corruption, economic stagnation, lack of political power and influence with her neighbors etc., etc. I want to focus here on one alleged thought that is going around mainstream media re Narendra Modi's economic vision. Many articles are describing Modi's economic vision - I have dealt with his development model in past article - as, lo and behold, \"Free Market\" vision (see this for example)!!! Is it really true that Modi's economic policies in Gujarat were free market policies? The best way to tackle this question is to first see the true definition of the free market, and then contrast Modi's actual policies with this definition. If what Modi did resembles this definition then the mainstream media is correct in terming Modi as a free market prime minister. Any deviation means media is, as usual, lying.\nFirst, we see some definitions of 'free market' from varied sources. Wikipedia defines 'free market' in this way:\nA free market is a market economy in which the forces of supply and demand are free of intervention by a government, price-setting monopolies, or other authority...The laissez-faire principle expresses a preference for an absence of non-market pressures on prices and wages, such as those from government taxes, subsidies, tariffs, regulation (other than protection from coercion and theft), or government-granted or coercive monopolies.\nInvestopedia defines it as:\nA market economy based on supply and demand with little or no government control. A completely free market is an idealized form of a market economy where buyers and sells are allowed to transact freely (i.e. buy/sell/trade) based on a mutual agreement on price without state intervention in the form of taxes, subsidies or regulation.\nWorld English Dictionary defines it as:\nan economic system that allows supply and demand to regulate prices, wages, etc, rather than government policy\nMerriam-Webster dictionary defines it as:\nan economic market or system in which prices are based on competition among private businesses and not controlled by a government\nAnd most importantly, the famous free market economist of the twentieth century, Ludwig von Mises, defined a market economy as:\nAnother champion of free market, Murray Rothbard, outlined the necessary condition for the existence of the market economy:\nThis means that the key to the existence and flourishing of the free market is a society in which the rights and titles of private property are respected, defended, and kept secure. The key to socialism, on the other hand, is government ownership of the means of production, land, and capital goods. Thus, there can be no market in land or capital goods worthy of the name. (Read the whole article What is the Free Market).\nNow, contrast these characteristics of a free market economy with Modi's policies in Gujarat. Do Gujarat has any private property rights regime - which is secured by the State itself - in the means of production? Not at all. In fact, Modi has robbed many farmers of their land during his 13 years stint in power. Do we have different prices like wages, rents etc., being regulated by the free market forces of demand and supply in Gujarat without any interference from Modi's state? No. Just like any other state we have myriad of legislative acts interfering the free exchange between a buyer and a seller. Modi's government taxed like any other government. Modi's government gave subsidies to farmers and industrialists like any other government. Modi's government gave monopoly powers to business tycoons like Tata, Adani etc., like any other government. Modi government has put the people of Gujarat under a heavy burden of public debt like any other state government in India (see this). In fact, Narendra Modi dictated every policy in Gujarat from the get go.\nIf someone truly understands the system of free market, then, he can immediately see the logical fallacy of the term 'Narendra Modi's Free Market Policy'. If there is a free market, then, there is no Narendra Modi because, as Ludwig von Mises explained:\nThe market economy [capitalism] was not devised by a master mind; it was not first planned as an utopian scheme and then put to work. Spontaneous actions of individuals, aiming at nothing else than at the improvement of their own state of satisfaction, undermined the prestige of the coercive status system step by step. (The Ultimate Foundation of Economic Science, p. 109)\nAnd, if there is Narendra Modi's free market policy, then, there is no free market. It is Modi's whatever vision that is forced on people!\nActually, Narendra Modi is a fascist leader. There is no free market in Gujarat. It is only socialism where, in reality, government owns the means of production. It is fascism where the state and big corporations loot the hapless public. It is crony capitalism. There ain't any free market in Gujarat, and there won't be any in India now that Modi is the PM of India.\nwell written... appreciable....!!!!!!!",

Though he insisted it's always been the band's policy to try and keep its music out of the political fray, he also didn't bother to disguise his feelings toward Trump's positions.\n\"This is not an official Queen statement, but I can confirm that permission to use the track was neither sought nor given. We are taking advice on what steps we can take to ensure this use does not continue,\" wrote May. \"Regardless of our views on Mr. Trump\u2019s platform, it has always been against our policy to allow Queen music to be used as a political campaigning tool. Our music embodies our own dreams and beliefs, but it is for all who care to listen and enjoy. We certainly have not approved this use of 'We Are The Champions' -- I will make sure we take what steps we can to dissociate ourselves from Donald Trump's unsavory campaign.\"\nMay and Queen are the latest in a growing number of musicians who've opposed the use of their songs in connection with the Trump campaign \u2014 a list that includes Neil Young, Aerosmith and R.E.M. as well as Elton John and the Rolling Stones. Twisted Sister frontman Dee Snider initially allowed the use of the band's \"We're Not Gonna Take It,\" but later said Trump's political views forced him to reconsider.\nSource: Brian May Wants Donald Trump to Stop Using \u2018We Are the Champions\u2019",

City's team can likely survive without Aguero but Argentina was going to need all the help it could get to get wins over Peru on October 5 and Ecuador on October 10.\nPackers players released a statement this week saying they would intertwine arms before the game as a show of unity. The President had criticized players who chose to protest during \"The Star-Spangled Banner\". We believe it is important to support any of our players who choose to peacefully express themselves with the hope of change for good. Former San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick started the anthem protests previous year when he started kneeling during the anthem.\n'My Wife is Jealous Because I Love Kane' - Mauricio Pochettino\nHe has something special. For me he's one of the best as I told you. \"All the strikers that have this type of level they have something special in front of goal \", Pochettino said. \"They have one of the best defenses with (Sergio) Ramos, Marcelo, players like that\". I can not joke about that because both are fantastic. Lloris added: \"Every big team has a big goalscorer\".\nTakes brutal hit in Thursday's game\nAdams played with Carr during the Raiders quarterback's junior and senior (2012-13) seasons at Fresno State, catching 233 passes for 3,031 yards and 38 touchdowns during that span.

        "raw_content": "The rare sequel that is as good if not better than the original, this one has got it all.\n22 Jump Street is a very enjoyable movie. It has all the same characters as the first film, and has our two heroes, Jenko and Schmidt, going off to college this time instead of highschool. once again it\u2019s the two of them going undercover as students, trying to find and bust up an illegal drug ring that\u2019s been going on. the boys again go their separate ways while at school, meeting two different sets of kids, but that\u2019s where the similarities stop. This movie finds its own footing after that, and while the plot is pretty good, it\u2019s the comedy that really makes the movie work. this movie is loaded up with jokes and most of them are extremely funny.\n22 Jump Street is another very funny movie. The first film was great, and now so is this sequel. In fact, it is probably just as good as the first film. That doesn\u2019t happen too often. Sequels tend to copy the original film\u2019s formula or repeat jokes and end up either being another version of the same movie, or else they go the opposite route. Once in a while a sequel will try to be as different as can be to the point where it doesn\u2019t even feel like it is part of the same franchise. 22 Jump Street is the movie that gets it right. That\u2019s because it does not copy any individual jokes from the first film, but instead, finds it\u2019s own new area to play around in.\nThe storyline, when broken down to basics, is similar. our two cops, Schmidt (Jonah Hill) and Jenko (Channing Tatum) are going undercover at school to bust up a drug ring. only here it\u2019s college, not high school. They did a pretty good job in the last film to the point where now their department is staying opened, relocating to a new location, and getting all kinds of high-tech equipment. at one point the captain, played by ice cube, says it looks like something out of iron man in the church that has become their new base of operations. this church is across the street from the church they used last year, giving us the name 22 jump street. there\u2019s even a funny joke about where they might be moving next year.\nthe movie starts with scenes from last episode and with a quick review of some of the different moments that happened in the last film. from there, we get our first action scene with the two guys going in to a drug deal, attempting to masquerade under ridiculous sounding hispanic accents, and getting busted. it all happens when schmidt opens a box, expecting to find drugs and an octopus jumps out, latching onto his face. suddenly the boys start freaking out and accidentally forget to do their accents. once the accents go, their cover goes too, and a shootout ensues. the shootout turns into a truck speedaway with our two heroes grabbing on. by the end of the scene the truck has gotten away and our two boys are left hanging, literally.\nthat puts them back in front of the deputy, played by nick offerman. he only had one scene in the first movie, and he\u2019s really only got one scene in this film as well. this is the guy who sends them out to ice cube in the church. he tells them in this moment that nobody cared about them last year, but then they actually turned up drugs, to everyone\u2019s amazement, and now they have some attention. but that doesn\u2019t mean they can screw up and nobody will notice. he comments about schmidt\u2019s octopus bite on his neck and then sends the boys off to the church.\nthat\u2019s when the real case begins. cube\u2019s character, captain dickson, shows them photos of a girl who turned up dead on a college campus while buying drugs, and the boys get into some uncomfortable banter about her being black. schmidt makes the argument that the only reason he and jenko care about the case at all is because the girl is black, trying to kiss up to the black captain. jenko, on the other hand, insists that they would care equally whether she was white or black. the captain isn\u2019t interested in what either one of them has to say on the matter and is the voice of reason, thinking the whole conversation is appallingly ridiculous.\nthen jenko and schmidt head off to college. this part of their journey starts with them showing us a bunch of college accessories and explaining what each one is. then they walk down the hall of their dorm and start meeting other students. the two that they really exchange words with are a pair of twins who live across the hall and say everything at the exact same time. these two kids are hilarious together, and probably the funniest part of the entire movie. especially when they play rock, paper, scissors against each other later on in the film.\nlike the last movie, this one does involve jenko and schmidt splitting up and meeting different groups of kids, but that\u2019s just a way to run two plots at the same time instead of only one. it\u2019s one of the few staples of this series that i expect to keep seeing in every jump street film that might come in the future. and this movie gives us good reason for the split, having both boys try out for the football team / fraternity, and only one of them get accepted.\nthat person is jenko, the more athletic and better built. people laugh at the guys when jenko and schmidt tell them that they are brothers. they just look totally different in every way. and while jenko pursues his football status, making amazing plays on the field and also trying to follow a tatoo that was spotted in a photo of the deceased girl buying drugs, schmidt starts attending her classes.\nhe makes a strong connection with a girl at the slam poetry class, and the girl happens to be the person who took on the roomate of the deceased girl to help her out with a tough time. schmidt ends up hooking up with this girl and then turning it into the start of a relationship. that all seems fine until a secret is revealed which unspools a massive amount of pent up comedy. suddenly the movie is given an extra edge which helps push it along.\n22 jump street has a whole lot going on. it\u2019s smart, just like the first movie, and that comes from some really strong comedic writing. there are scenes in this movie that talk about sequels and how they always end up trying to be like the first film, but not being able to pull it off. the nick offerman character gives them a speech about this. then there are tons of jokes throughout the film about jenko and schmidt being in a relationship. at one point the two of them even stumble into a guidance counselor\u2019s office together and sit down for a session with him about their feelings toward each other. the action and criminal story is fine, just like it was in the first film, but the main reason this movie works so well is the comedy. even the end credit sequence, detailing future films of the series, is terrific. this is another winner.",

While gluten makes many people love foods with this protein, it is good to know that it tends to have disadvantages that one ought to avoid by all means. One of the demerits of intestinal damage. Any individual with celiac disease tend to have a poor immune reaction the moment he or she takes gluten and hence have the small intestines absorb fewer nutrients into the body. Where the intestines have an immune problem the person in question tend to have lesser absorption of foods leading to nutritional deficiencies. One would also need to know that any individual with celiac issues can have tiny bite of gluten triggering the release of antibodies that as a result tend to attack the intestines. One would need to ensure that he or she avoids uptake of gluten where he or she has issues with bloating, gas and diarrhea. Where an individual continues to eat food with gluten, there are high chances that he or she will suffer malnutrition and tends to have a weaker body which can also lead to death. Individuals with celiac problem also have high digestive complaints. Individuals with gluten intolerance should also need to make sure that they avoid protein products with gluten. While one may not experience immune issues like the celiac, non-celiac gluten sensitivity tends to cause nausea, abdominal pains, diarrhea, bloating, gas as well as indigestion. It is essential for one to know that cure to celiac and non-gluten insensitivity have not been found. One can only manage the conditions through ensuring that he or she eats gluten free diet. Bearing in mind that energy is necessary, one would need to make sure that he or she adopts gluten free snacks to avoid risks that come with gluten. Due to the fact that energy is essential for one in his or her activities during the day, one would need to make sure that he or she takes gluten free snacks to ensure that he or she maintains energy levels and at the same time minimize risks that come with gluten. One would also have improved cholesterol levels and where one can also reduce risk of heart disease diabetes a well as certain types of cancers. One would also promote healthy weight loss with gluten free snacks as well as reduce viruses and germs due to eating of antioxidants, minerals and vitamins. One also increases chances of comfort where he or she has had issues with bowel syndrome as well as arthritis. It is therefore essential to know that gluten free snacks is very healthy for one\u2019s body.The Best Advice About Treats I\u2019ve Ever Written\nIf You Think You Understand Treats, Then Read This\nDoing Hills The Right Way",

        "raw_content": "Not As Sharp As I Used To Be\nLife is continually dynamic. It never stops. It gives few warnings of imminent dangers that buffet us. The expectations do not diminish. No matter how much we delegate, there are many other obligations waiting to fill those slots vacated by assigning tasks elsewhere. For most people I know, they are working longer days, spending time in the evenings and on weekends answering messages, and trying on Saturday and Sunday to squeeze in family time, rec time, church, and hopefully, some time with friends before Monday.\nWe are good at staying busy. We are not accomplished at truly resting one day a week. In God\u2019s design, every seventh day was to be a \u201cSabbath\u201d \u2026. a full rest from any work. Scripture states that \u201cthe Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath.\u201d The days of creation were recorded so that we would see God\u2019s good intention for us to rest one day out of seven. The secular culture is set up on seven-day weeks. Most people work 5-6 of those days with at least one day off. And, in today\u2019s culture, the day of rest may involve lots of things, but most often in the 21st century, only a small minority of people use it as a day of worship.\nResting on the LORD\u2019S day enables us to be refreshed in our spirit. When we meet with God\u2019s people in God\u2019s presence, our hearts are renewed by singing, praying, and studying the Word of God together. Resting allows our minds and bodies time to recover from a full week previously and to prepare for the week ahead. And, resting enables us to review what was really \u201cgood\u201d about the week just lived in the same way God reviewed each day of Creation and said, \u201cIt was good.\u201d Failure to rest can lead to fatigue, discouragement, and disillusionment because there is never a break from the demands. Rest does not appear to have a measurable benefit that one can list on the ledger as an \u201caccomplishment\u201d, but the benefits from rest surely are magnificent.\nSome years ago, a young man approached the foreman of a logging crew and asked for a job. \u201cThat depends,\u201d replied the foreman. \u201cLet\u2019s see you fell this tree.\u201d\nThe young man stepped forward and skillfully felled a great tree. Impressed, the foreman exclaimed, \u201cStart Monday!\u201d\nMonday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday rolled by, and Thursday afternoon the foreman approached the young man and said, \u201cYou can pick up your paycheck on the way out today.\u201d\nStartled, he replied, \u201cI thought you paid on Friday.\u201d\n\u201cNormally we do,\u201d answered the foreman, \u201cbut we\u2019re letting you go today because you\u2019ve fallen behind. Our daily felling charts show that you\u2019ve dropped from first place on Monday to last on Wednesday.\u201d\n\u201cBut I\u2019m a hard worker,\u201d the young man objected. \u201cI arrive first, leave last, and even have worked through my coffee breaks!\u201d\nThe foreman, sensing the boy\u2019s integrity, thought for a minute and then asked, \u201cHave you been sharpening your ax?\u201d The young man replied, \u201cI\u2019ve been working too hard to take the time.\u201d (Copied).\nA Modern Parable A God Pleaser",

        "raw_content": "NJ BPU Hosts Korean Delegation\nWhen a delegation of fifteen representatives from various provinces, cities and counties in the Republic of Korea was seeking to study a model program for promoting clean energy and improved energy efficiency to residents and commercial entities, the search took them halfway around the world - all the way to New Jersey.\nNew Jersey\u2019s Clean Energy Program (NJCEP) has garnered international acclaim for its accomplishments in significantly reducing energy consumption and reliance on carbon-based fuels across several market sectors. From 2001 \u2013 2009, New Jersey has produced accumulated savings of over 26.6 million megawatt hours of electricity and nearly 81 million dekatherms of natural gas from energy efficiency programs, over 7.9 million megawatt hours of renewable generation and nearly 1.9 million megawatt hours of distributed generation from combined heat and power systems.\nTo learn how NJCEP accomplished these impressive results, the South Korean delegation and members of the New York Consulate's Office attended an informational session that began with a program overview by Commissioner Fiordaliso. The delegation also heard presentations about programs available to commercial, industrial and institutional customers as well as about the State's approach to renewable energy sources such as solar, wind and biomass.\nThe delegates came away from the event with a greater understanding of the many facets of an effective program to promote clean energy and some practical ideas that will help them build a roadmap for climate change in their own country.\nDownload the Renewable Energy Presentation Slides (PDF)\nDownload the Energy Efficiency Presentation Slides (PDF)\nNote: Program descriptions contained in these 2010 slide presentations may no longer be current.",

        "raw_content": "Building Performance with ENERGY STAR\nThe New Jersey Board of Public Utilities (BPU) is participating in a partnership with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to improve building energy efficiency in commercial facilities. The new pilot program, Building Performance with ENERGY STAR, helps states and utility companies in their efforts to promote comprehensive, whole-building energy upgrades for businesses. The other partners in the national pilot include ComEd, MidAmerican Energy, National Grid, Pacific Gas & Electric, Southern California Edison and Wisconsin Focus on Energy.\nBuilding Performance with ENERGY STAR is a collection of tools and resources that produce greater long-term energy savings in facilities where whole building upgrades are planned. The program is coupled with Pay for Performance, a component of New Jersey's Clean Energy Program that provides incentives for energy improvements in large facilities. Participants will establish an ongoing energy management strategy for their portfolio of buildings and learn how to save energy year after year.\nBuilding performance is assessed using EPA\u2019s Portfolio Manager, an energy measurement and tracking tool that helps uncover cost-effective energy efficiency opportunities. The BPU's role in the pilot program is to target and recruit eligible, vertically-integrated market sectors of businesses based in New Jersey and drive continuous improvement in energy performance across the state. Primary target sectors include retail companies, hospitals and other healthcare organizations that:\nAre headquartered or have a major presence in New Jersey\nHave multiple facilities or a minimum of ten locations\nAre high energy users that best fit the parameters of the initiative\nPay for Performance participants who qualify for the Building Performance with ENERGY STAR pilot will sign a participation agreement and begin with a benchmarking report using ENERGY STAR Portfolio Manager for each facility. Participants will have access to technical energy analysis tools, educational webinars and guidance on available financial incentives. In addition to gaining competitive advantage through energy reduction and building performance improvement, businesses participating in the pilot have the opportunity to gain recognition as industry leaders through the adoption and implementation of whole-building energy efficiency management strategies.\nTo request free benchmarking services, complete the online form that matches your building type. For detailed information about participating in the Building Performance with ENERGY STAR Pilot, contact us at 866-NJSMART or send an e-mail to Benchmarking@NJCleanEnergy.com.",

        "raw_content": "Lexington Conference (Methodist Episcopal Church)\nThe Lexington Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church was established in Harrodsburg, KY, in 1869. It was the third missionary conference for African Americans [the first was the Delaware Conference and the second was the Washington Conference, both established in 1864]. African Americans had been members of the Kentucky District of the Methodist Episcopal Church as early as 1787 when there were 64 Colored members, according to author F. Ockerman, Jr. When the Lexington Conference was established, it was originally a part of the Kentucky Annual Conference; beginning in the spring of 1866, a few Negro preachers were admitted into the traveling connection as a trial. New members were added as the preachers met as a group over the next three years. At the annual session in Newport, KY, in 1868, the preachers forwarded a resolution asking for their own conference, named the Lexington Conference; the resolution was approved. The conference founders were Henry Hopkins Lytle (1802-1890), from Maryland; Israel Simms (1819-1912), from New Castle, KY; Zail or Zale Ross (1824-1892), from Georgetown, KY; William Lawrence (d. 1900 in Anchorage, KY); Marcus McCoomer (1834-1899); Peter Booth (d. 1873), from Kentucky; Hanson Talbott (d. 1870), from Harrodsburg, KY; Nelson Saunders (d. 1879 in Louisville, KY); Paris Fisher; Andrew Bryant (d. 1870 in Paris, KY); Adam Nunn (b.1820), from Oberlin, OH; George Downing (1807-1880), from Virginia; Willis L. Muir (d. 1911 in Louisville, KY); and Elisha C. Moore (d. 1871), from Alabama. The first Lexington Conference was held in the Jackson Street Church in Louisville in 1870, with the membership initially including churches in Kentucky, Ohio, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Wisconsin, and Minnesota. The women's divisions of the conference were formed after the turn of the century: Women's Home Missionary Society (1900), Ladies Aid Society (1914), Minister's Wives (1919), and Women's Society of Christian Service. The Lexington Conference was held most often in a Kentucky location, and as the membership increased, it also shifted northward with the Great Migration, after which the conference was held more in Ohio, Illinois, and Indiana. In 1946 the membership was over 17,000, with close to half from the Chicago area. The Lexington Conference was held each year until June 1964 when the conference was merged into the Cleveland district of the North East Ohio Conference.

Purple Rain is a song, an album, and a film\u2014each one a commercial success and cultural milestone. How did this semi-autobiographical musical masterpiece that blurred R&B, pop, dance, and rock sounds come to alter the recording landscape and become an enduring touchstone for successive generations of fans? Purple Rain is widely considered to be among the most important albums in music history and often named the best soundtrack of all time. It sold over a million copies in its first week and blasted to #1 on the charts, where it would remain for a full six months and eventually sell over 20 million copies worldwide. It spun off three huge hit singles, won Grammys and an Oscar, and took Prince from pop star to legend. Coinciding with the thirtieth anniversary year of Purple Rain\u2019s release, acclaimed music journalist Alan Light takes a timely look at the making and incredible popularizing of this once seemingly impossible project. With impeccable research and in-depth interviews with people who witnessed Prince\u2019s audacious vision becoming a reality, Light reveals how a rising but not yet established artist from the Midwest was able not only to get Purple Rain made, but deliver on his promise to conquer the world.\nBook request: Let's Go Crazy",

He was instantly engaged with the movie and my vision for how the colour grade should look, offering realistic advice on what we could achieve and always willing to try out new looks and adjust early iterations. I would highly recommend Lee for your future colour grading needs.\nThe Runner is a project with one of the most extreme looks I\u2019ve worked on.\nThe brief for this film was to take the city of London and turn it into a dingy and sickly location, with one step just outside of reality.\nThe film relied heavily on a \u201cmultiple realities\u201d theme. One cold and sterile, the other grungy. The director had the intention of never quite letting the audience know which one (if any) was real.\nCreating this contrast was a great challenge and keeping it consistent across the entire film, despite drastically different light, exposure and locations was even more challenging.\nHowever, the end result was certainly worth it.",

        "raw_content": "The Social Enterprise Review is a collection of op-eds written by students at Northeastern University regarding contemporary issues in the world of social enterprise. The Review is managed by Northeastern University\u2019s Social Enterprise Institute.\nApril 9, 2013, by Rebecca Darling. Original article.\nIn response to increasing criticism of traditional aid systems, the buy-one-give-one social business model was born. Buy-one-give-one, also known as BOGO, promises consumers that for every product purchased, a subsequent product will be distributed to a person in need. The ease and feel-good nature of the one-for-one model, combined with consumers\u2019 response and participation, has skyrocketed BOGO\u2019s presence in the world of social enterprise. Unfortunately, like many social businesses, good intentions are not always enough to create meaningful and long-lasting social impact. With the popularity of the BOGO model it would seem logical for the method to be effective, however the examples of unsuccessful buy-one-give-one enterprises seem to be as prevalent as the successes. This being said, is it possible for social businesses to effectively use the one-for-one model to create lasting social impact, as opposed to simply banking on the masses uninformed consumers?\nIt is difficult to discuss the one-for-one model without acknowledging its originator, TOMS Shoes. Blake Mycoskie launched the company in 2006 after a trip to Argentina where he witnessed the hardships poor children face without proper footwear. In an honest attempt to solve this problem, TOMS Shoes successfully plays on the emotions of wealthy consumers in order to sell cost inefficient footwear, with the promise of donating the same pair of poor quality shoes to someone in need. However, in addition to supplying poor quality shoes, TOMS Shoes are given away and therefore undercut local markets, hurting businesses and fostering an unsustainable aid-based economy. Blake Mycoskie enters communities, uninvited and uninformed, to implement short-term fixes to a system in need of long-term solutions.\nIt is important to credit Mycoskie for the introduction of this innovative business model to the social impact community. While its founder failed to do so, the buy-one-give-one business model has the potential to be used to create meaningful social impact. Since its inception, numerous businesses have adopted and improved the model to better support poor communities.\nOver 1.6 billion people lack access to electricity. In many developing countries, the only alternative to electricity is dangerous kerosene lamps. Not only is kerosene expensive, and associated with hazardous health effects, but the light produced is often not bright enough to read the words on a page. One Million Lights is a nonprofit organization that hopes to remedy this problem with the production of solar powered LED lights.\nOne Million Lights uses the BOGO model, in addition to monetary donations, to give lamps to families at the base of the economic pyramid. These lamps not only improve health conditions as compared to open flames, but can also increase the length of the school day in order to improve educational prospects for children. As opposed to many other products that use the BOGO model, solar light is not essential to daily life and therefore it will be more difficult for One Million Lights to maintain long-term sustainability.\nOne way in which the company can increase sustainability is by selling the product to their customers, as opposed to giving them away for free. By selling these lamps on a tiered pricing scale, the customers would be more likely to value the product and the impact that it will have on their family.\nA successful buy-one-give-one model is reliant on the ability of a product to sell well in the overall market of consumer products, as a means of maximizing social impact. A socially minded product sells well in traditional markets, by having a competitive advantage over the standard market options. Warby Parker achieves this by marketing quality glasses at a price point far below the average cost of eyewear. In this way Warby Parker is able to increase sales without relying on the BOGO model as their sole selling point.\nWarby Parker uses the BOGO model as their means to social impact, however their organization is sustainable due to a variety of other metrics. In addition to the affordable price, the business has virtually revolutionized the process of purchasing glasses through virtual try-ons and free home try-ons. These innovations have caused Warby Parker\u2019s giving model to take secondary role in the marketing of their brand, which further increases the sustainability of the organization as a whole.\nImpact Measurement and Sustainability\nIt is crucial that any social business measure and evaluate their impact in order to grow and improve. This is especially true for businesses that are giving away their products and services for free, as these organizaitons must ensure that they are targetting the populations most in need of their particular product. We have seen the consequences of uninformed organizations, such as TOMS Shoes, whose lack of research of the problem and the effected communities has led to serious repercussions.\nAlthough the BOGO model, by design, is a sustainable means to delivering a product, there are always ways in which an organization can improve their sustainability. Organizations such as One Million Lights could benefit from the implementation of a pricing gradient for their products. This would mean that a customer would be charged based on their ability to pay. In addition to supplying some sort of revenue to the company, sliding scale pricing would give the customers a sense of ownership and value in the product.\nIn addition to paying a small fee for the product, operational sustainability can be achieved by moving the production of the product to the communities that the product is meant to impact. Moving production of TOMS Shoes to an underdeveloped community would serve to stimulate the economy and provide jobs to the families that live there. This, in turn, would supplement the familial income so that children can stay in school longer and improve their lives. This type of manufacturing not only reinforces the mission of a socially- minded company, but also increases financial sustainability.\nThe Future of BOGO\nThe buy-one-give-one business model will certainly have a strong future in the sector of social enterprise. As entrepreneurs continue to innovate in this space, there are many ways in which the one-for-one model can be improved and expanded upon. Simply giving a product or service away can create a community of dependence that is not beneficial for the organization or the community in which the organization is operating. For example, in the case of TOMS Shoes and One Million Lights, a scaled pricing system would help to ensure that the customer values the product, as well as increase the financial sustainability of the organization. In addition, if One Million Lights, for example, gave their lights to a woman to sell, she could market them at a reasonable price for her community. This could help to lift the woman and her family out of poverty, as well as create a sense of pride and ownership for those who spent their hard earned money on the purchase of a lamp. These community-based projects are more sustainable than international handouts because the community takes on the responsibility of ensuring the business\u2019 success.\nThe popularity of the BOGO business model is not without reason. An extremely effective marketing tool, when properly executed, it is possible to use this tool to create meaningful and lasting social impact. Many social businesses have not properly executed this tool and in turn have operated a feel-good business for western consumers, rather than a life changing operation for the poor. Many one-for-one models fail to accurately assess the needs of the poor and effectively administer their product to the target communities. It is crucial that future social businesses look at the bigger picture, and the lasting effects the outside involvement can have on a community. Sustainable development is not about giving a gift, but rather about creating long-lasting change. This reinforces the concept that social enterprises must strive to obtain a social impact, as opposed to working to help the poor for personal fulfillment. When used correctly, the buy-one-give-one model can have sustainable social impact, as opposed to merely being used as a profit-gaining marketing campaign.",

Be sure to not ramble, however. Your answer should still be concise.\nWhat do you do to stay active? The company really values active lifestyles. If you applied for a position with this company, the interviewer will probably assume that you lead an active lifestyle. Be sure to share your interests and expertise when you answer this question.\nWhat previous experience do you have?

Fill out the application form and print off a hard copy of your resume to drop off at whichever store for which you choose to apply. Keep in mind that applying in-person may get your Adidas application reviewed more quickly.\nYou should allow three to four weeks for your applications to be reviewed by the hiring staff. If you haven\u2019t heard back within this time frame, you should place a call to the store you applied at to inquire about the position. Doing this in a polite manner allows you to show the manager that you are still interested in the position.\nWhen you fill out an Adidas application online or in person, you might be called in for an interview. If you are called in for an interview, be sure to show up dressed in nice clothing so you can make the best impression possible. Men should wear slacks and a nice shirt, and women should wear slacks or a knee-length skirt with a nice blouse.\nhttp://www.careers.adidasgroup.com/\nhttp://www.adidas-group.com/en/group/profile/\nAldo Application\nSpirit Halloween Application\nSpirit Halloween Job Application Online Spirit Halloween is an industry that is temporary opened for a couple months out of...",

Gresham Machen was raised with the values of honest scholarship and confessional Reformed Christianity. That made him well suited for his studies and his later teaching career. These values were long held on both sides of his family.\nMachen attributed his exceptional knowledge of Scripture and his love for Reformed Christianity to his parents\u2019 example and instruction.

Hodge was not the passionate pulpiteer that Princeton\u2019s first professor, Archibald Alexander, was. Nor did he enjoy the sheer brilliance of his celebrated pupil and successor, Benjamin B. Warfield. In the fifty-eight years that Hodge taught at Princeton Theological Seminary, however, he shaped more lives with his gentle good humor and unflappable fidelity to God\u2019s Word than any other professor who taught there.\nHe modeled for his students a learned piety that marked nineteenth-century Old School Presbyterianism at its finest. Princeton was appreciated by many, and despised by others, for its moderation with respect to many of the issues of the day, and Hodge embodied that moderation. He was, as Andrew Hoffecker has written in his new biography (reviewed in this issue of New Horizons), an Old School Presbyterian with New Side sympathies. He reflected, for some of us, the best of both worlds: a warm piety married to a staunch orthodoxy. In this essay, I would like to shed light on Charles Hodge, not only as a theologian or churchman, but as a Christian who was not that much different from the rest of us.

Abraham Kuyper was so taken with his academic acumen that Kuyper offered him the chair of Old Testament studies at the Free University of Amsterdam when he was only twenty-four years old. J. Gresham Machen commented that if he knew as much as he did, he would be writing all the time. Cornelius Van Til considered him the most erudite man he had ever known.\nTestimonies like these abound concerning Geerhardus Vos (1862\u20131949), professor of biblical theology at Princeton Seminary from 1893 to 1932. Possessing the rare combination of first-rate exegetical, philosophical, and linguistic ability, Vos produced books and articles that remain standard reading today in Reformed theology. Although he never joined the Orthodox Presbyterian Church, Vos befriended many of his former Princeton students who did, and his theological influence remains in the church to this day. Read more\n\u201cOh no! He\u2019s talking about retirement again\u2014funds, investments ... blah, blah, blah ... finance, hocus pocus, blah, blah, blah....\u201d Before your eyes glaze over, read on. \u201cI\u2019m a minister, not a financier. Why should I be distracted from the work of ministry?\u201d Don\u2019t turn that page; read on.\n\u201cWe have a retirement allowance in our pastor\u2019s salary package. He can take care of his retirement however he wants. That\u2019s his business.\u201d Elders and sessions, don\u2019t tune out; read on. Read more",

        "raw_content": "Why Magen David Adom:\nMagen David Adom (MDA) is the Israeli equivalent of the Red Cross. It provides the entire Israeli pre-hospital emergency needs, including medical, disaster, ambulance and blood services. MDA also provides 100% of the blood requirements of the Israeli Defense Force, and 95% of blood for Israeli hospitals in the general population.\nSimply said, MDA treats all people equally, regardless of race, religion or political affiliation. If you are sick, hurt or injured in Israel, and require assistance, MDA will help you.\nMDA provides emergency care and provides ambulances twenty-four hours a day, for all types of accidents, medical emergencies and terror attacks. It has and does provide vital lifesaving services within Israel during both times of peace and war.\nMDA has over 120 emergency medical stations and 11 dispatch stations throughout Israel, from which its ambulance fleet of more than 800 modern, life saving vehicles can be deployed throughout the Country.\nLife saving tasks are carried out in part by MDA\u2019s 110 mobile intensive care units (MICUs) which are equipped with sophisticated equipment for the immediate diagnosis and treatment of cardiac and polytrauma emergencies and linked by telemetry equipment to the Coronary Care Units at nearby medical centers. MICUs are staffed by physicians trained in emergency medicine, and also by paramedics who have undergone strenuous training.\nMDA does not draw political boundaries. It serves all in need. Demonstrating its commitment to all people, MDA has 14 MDA stations in the West Bank communities as well.\nMDA provides ambulances, MICUs, blood mobiles and armored ambulances. MDA is responsible for 100% of the blood to the IDF and 95% of the blood for the general population.\nShould terrorists fire rockets into Sderot, Ash Kelon, Be\u2019er Sheva or any other terrorist activity in Israel, MDA will be there to treat, stabilize and rush those injured to the hospital.\nMDA also comes to the assistance of the international community in times of need. For instance:\nsent a delegation to stabilize the operating room in Port Au Prince Hospital.\nA second delegation taught select members of the population to give inoculations against diseases brought on by the lack of sanitation.\na third delegation taught amputees to use prosthetics.\nIn response to the tsunami:\nSent a medical delegation treating thousand of patients;\nSent tracing officer;\nSent 30 tons of food and 50 tons of water\nIn response to Hurricane Katrina:\nsent assistance to the U.S. during the aftermath of Katrina.\nsent two planes filled with fresh water (ironic since Israel is a country in the desert).\nOperation Climb -MDA\nGoals. Our goals are simple and clear:\n1. Raise awareness in our communities about MDA and the important and amazing work it does in Israel and around the world.\n2. Raise as much money as possible as a group to fund the purchase of ambulances, equipment and facilities for one purpose, saving peoples\u2019 lives.",

I\u2019ve been trying to get back into \u2018real\u2019 life after the Chile trip, and I\u2019ve also been preparing to do a couple of talks about bringing down your grocery budget. Thursday\u2019s talk was on skype, with patrons of the Tuskarawas County Library in Ohio. Friday morning I met with a MOPS group in Boise. Both talks turned out to be a lot of fun. People obviously cared about the topic and had great questions, which made it even more fun. And the babies at the MOPS group\u2013 be still, my heart, they were gorgeous! Shout out to any of you who might be reading here\u2013 thanks for hanging out with me and adding to the discussion.\nI always enjoy hearing other people\u2019s ideas for saving money. One woman mentioned that she freezes her old bananas and then makes banana pudding out of them. I make banana bread with mine, but I haven\u2019t tried banana pudding, so that was an interesting idea for me. Another woman said that she\u2019s found gallon ziplocks to be cheapest at the dollar store in our area, which I thought was another good tip.\nI\u2019ve got more talks coming up at the end of April at homeschool conventions in OKC and in Tulsa. I am interested in feedback from any of you who might live in or around Oklahoma City. We\u2019re talking about doing a meetup for anyone interested in getting together with other bloggers/ blog readers in the area. If you\u2019d be interested in something like this, would you weigh in and tell me which time is better for you? The times we are considering are:\nTues April 26th at 11:30AM OR\nWed April 27th at 7:30 AM\nI am guessing this will mostly appeal to people who are already planning on attending the homeschool convention, but anyone near OKC is welcome! If you are interested, would comment here or email me (owlhaven@aol.com) and tell me which time is better for you? There\u2019s also going to be a meetup in Tulsa, probably Thursday evening April 28th, so let me know if you\u2019re interested in that one too. Thanks!\nI am now off to run kids to soccer. Tomorrow I\u2019ve got another big book giveaway, and I\u2019m hoping to finish telling you about our Chile trip! We\u2019ll see how much of it gets written!\nQuick comment about the dollar store brand zip lock bags. I brought them with me to China in December to help hold documents, jewelry, gifts, etc in my luggage. Big mistake. They were cheaper, yes, but just trying to open them ripped every single one of them. They were totally useless. I realize brands can vary and actually the generic Kroger ones are pretty good and still cheaper than the big name brands. The dollar store ones, though, were a big fail.\nJulie Gumm says:\nAh, wish I lived near OKC! Are you planning on being at either CAFO Summit or T4A this year?\nI don\u2019t think so, Julie\u2026sure was fun to meet up last fall though!\nI wouldn\u2019t be able to make either. Too bad. Perhaps another time.\nMy hubby and I live in the Tulsa area and are attending the Tulsa homeschool convention, can\u2019t wait to hear more info about the meetup!\nAlexandra- The hope is that we can meet at a pizza place near the Tulsa/Bixby Hampton Inn on Thursday evening\u2026details are still be worked on, however\u2026.\nI do believe the fine folks of Pittsburgh could use some grocery saving tips. Just sayin\u2019. : 0 )\nMarian, I\u2019d love to come out your way! Maybe someday!\nOh boo! I\u2019m moving to Oklahoma City in June! \ud83d\ude42\nI will be at the OKC convention and would love to meet up with you and others. The 11:30 time would be better for me. Thanks so much. What is the subject of your talks at the OKC convention?\nI\u2019ll put in your vote for 11:30! At both the OKC and the Tulsa conventions I\u2019ll be presenting the same two topics \u201cFast, Delicious, Affordable Food\u201d and \u201cThe Balancing Act: Homeschool, Housework and Activities.\u201d\nThat would be fun to meet!\nOh drat, I have another meeting in Tulsa on the evening of April 28. I live a mere 3 miles from Savastinos which is the pizza place you are talking about though I have never actually been there. Maybe I will make the trip down the turnpike on Tuesday to meet up there at 11:30am. It\u2019s just a little over an hour. Then I can go to the conference in Tulsa. Can\u2019t wait to meet you!!!\nI would love to hear you speak on the 28th! The sight mentioned above is very close to me. Hope you can make it all work. I have enjoyed your work very much.\nI can\u2019t make the meetup (it is just too much with babysitters two days in a row for the convention), but I am looking forward to the Tulsa convention! I have been homeschooling for six or seven years (my oldest is almost 11) and this is my first convention. I am so excited!!! You are one of the reasons I decided to go\u2026I have been living frugally (with varying degrees of success) for the past 10 years or so and I have an internationally adopted son (along with 2 bio kids and 2 foster kids). When I clicked on your website from the convention site, I knew I had to go to the convention. I am looking forward to hearing/seeing you.\nI can\u2019t wait to hear you speak! You are the reason I decided to come to the convention again this year. I could do the 11:30 probably. Isn\u2019t that during the convention time? Would you be staying at the Cox convention center or would you be leaving? If you are leaving the facilities then I wouldn\u2019t be able to come. I will be bringing my teenage son and I don\u2019t want him to miss the workshops he signed up for. Would he be able to come with me?\nDana~Are We There Yet? says:\nI\u2019m the one coordinating the meetups in OKC and Tulsa. You are correct that the OKC time is during the Convention. We will have a location in the Cox Center, either in an upstairs room or in the restaurant on the east side of the building. I\u2019m in negotiations right now trying to get us a primo spot. Stay tuned for more details!",

The director of legal research in the Centre for Business Taxation, Professor Judith Freedman, was awarded an Honorary Fellowship in 2017. Paul Johnson, the director of the Institute for Fiscal Studies, was also made an Honorary Fellow on January 9.\nThe award was presented by the CIOT President, John Preston, at the Annual President\u2019s Lunch. The CIOT commented:\n'Michael Devereux has made a huge contribution to the tax policy-making debate in the UK and internationally. As the first director of the Oxford University Centre for Business Taxation he, alongside Judith Freedman, has really put the Centre on the map and gained it a reputation for excellence in both research and conferences.

        "raw_content": "This is the third in a series of short comments in which the professionals at Pacific Tax Partners discuss impact of the recent tragedy in Japan on the economy.\nJapan, 2011 and Beyond\nThe humanitarian and the natural sciences aspects of the Tohoku Pacific Earthquake and its effects are indeed overwhelming, but for a moment going beyond that, some thoughts about the future:\nThe triple combo of the earthquake, tsunami, and nuclear power plant problems have delayed the musical chairs ritual of \u201cChange the Prime Minister,\u201d leaving Naoto Kan in that position, for better or for worse, in sickness or in health. At the same time, political party reorganization and restructuring has had to be postponed. Public administration is being strongly influenced by the events (local elections are being delayed, for example), but the prospects of continued political instability and absence of reliable leadership are more important. When perception of this is combined with a serious reassessment of Japan\u2019s economic outlook, it will have far-reaching effects \u2014 tending to favor a weaker yen over the long-term. As we have previously predicted for the short-term despite market intervention, Yen will continue to rise and remain historically strong, as currency reserves will be repatriated for capital projects.\nThe corporate sector has become destabilized and this will last at least until September and perhaps, uncomfortably, beyond that. Supply chain vulnerability, market access, electric power supply and its reliability, prospects of a major hit to agricultural and maritime food industries, demand distortion for products including building materials and construction equipment, possibility of delays in export business (there were confirmed reports of checking Eurozone imports from Japan for radioactivity, for example), movement of employees, quake and tsunami caused loss or damage to facilities... all this and more will require changes in business plans and behavior.\nThis is an epoch-making event in social terms. Strengthening awareness of being Japanese may lead to a revival of \u201cnipponjinron\u201d discourse \u2014 discussion on the nature of being Japanese. Many fundamental ideas and social systems will undergo review. Changes in attitudes and behavior are certain. Among these changes, much more importance will be assigned to security; this will arise from events such as loss of life when there was destruction of homes for elderly people.\nUS efforts to assist will make defense related adjustments concerning military bases easier to accomplish, and US-Japan relations are likely to become stronger.\nThe indebtedness of the nation will increase. The cost of insuring Japanese government bonds will rise, and Japan\u2019s financial status will deteriorate over the short-term. The prospect of a massive rebuilding effort will evoke expectations of a more vibrant economy, but paying for the infrastructure will add to the debt nightmare woes of the nation. New methods of financing including a new type of bond issue to mobilize household savings, joint public-private sector initiatives, and the like will be needed.\nEnergy issues will be a national albatross. Like the Japanese population, nuclear facilities have aged, but in the latter case this means that they have become relatively outdated in terms of technology. Some plants will never be re-started; inspections and possible remedial measures for others will reduce supply capacity. Energy issues will underline much of the short-, medium-, and long-term thinking and planning.\nWe look forward to being part of Japan's recovery and renaissance.",

For various reasons people with learning disabilities can present a range of challenges for the people around them, during times of ill health any difficulties will become ever more apparent. For the health professional working in mainstream primary and secondary care settings, these challenges can be difficult to overcome when attempting to identify health needs and deliver holistic care that is responsive to their individual needs. Health Care Provision and People with Learning Disabilities - A Guide for Health Professionals provides clear information that will assist mainstream health care providers in gaining greater understanding of people with learning disabilities and managing their health needs. Each chapter gives the reader information and guidance on dealing with a variety of situations found in health care settings. Examples of good practice are explained using case examples and experiences of people with learning disabilities and their carers. The book describes what is expected from the various health care teams and offers solutions to potential challenges and barriers they may be faced with. It includes information regarding specialist support services that can offer assistance to the individual and to the mainstream staff teams, while ideas are also offered on how to present information in a format people who have communication difficulties can understand. The evidence base for Health Care Provision and People with Learning Disabilities - A Guide for Health Professionals has been drawn from extensive research, personal experience, policy guidance, as well as some of the current legislation that is applicable to this diverse group of people. The information shared will prove useful for those working in health settings as well as those undertaking studies in health care.\nA Handbook for Inclusion Managers\nSteering your School towards Inclusion\nAuthor: Ann Sydney\nAre you responsible for inclusion in your school?

While human\u2013computer interaction (HCI) tra- tionally brings psychologists and computer scientists together, the inclusion of usab- ity engineering (UE), which is a software engineering discipline and ensures the appropriate implementation of applications, has become indispensable. Our 2009 topic was therefore Human\u2013Computer Interaction & Usability for e- Inclusion (HCI4e-I), culminating in the 5th annual Usability Symposium USAB 2009 held during November 9\u201310, 2009 in Linz, Austria (http://usab.icchp.org), organized together with the Workgroup Information Technology for People with Special Needs (OCG Arbeitskreis IT f\u00fcr Menschen mit besonderen Bed\u00fcrfnissen). The term e-inclusion, also known as digital inclusion, is used within the European Union to encompass all activities related to the achievement of an inclusive infor- tion society. New information technologies always bring the risk of a digital divide, and con- quently e-Inclusion wants to put emphasis on a digital cohesion and on enhancing opportunities with IT into all segments of the European population, including dis- vantaged people, e.g., due to lack of education (e-Competences, e-Learning), age (e-Ageing), gender apartheid (equality=e-Quality), disabilities (e-Accessibility), ill health (e-Health) etc. At the European level, e-Inclusion is part of the third pillar of the 2010 policy initiative, managed by the Directorate General for Information Society and Media of the European Commission.\nAuthor: Ivan Brown,Maire Ede Percy\nLearning objectives, instructive case stories, stimulating questions for reflection, and key Internet resources help make this a user-friendly textbook - one that students will refer to for years to come. With this thorough compendium of information, insights, and answers, future educators, social workers, researchers, and clinicians will know what to doand how to do it once they start their work with people with disabilities. the editors and the majority of the contributors are the top Canadian specialists in the disability field. Ivan Brown, Ph.D., is Associate Professor and Manager, Centre for Excellence for Child Welfare, Faculty of Social Work, at Unversity of Toronto; his co-editor, Maire Percy, Ph.D., isDirector, Neurogenetics Lab and Professor Emeritus of Physiology and Ob/Gyn, at Unversity of Toronto.\nAddressing Tensions and Dilemmas in Inclusive Education\nAuthor: Brahm Norwich\nBased on extensive research, Addressing Tensions and Dilemmas in Inclusive Education presents a contemporary and critical analysis of the interaction between different perspectives and positions in the field of inclusive education. Referring to existing attitudes on the education of children and young people with learning difficulties and disabilities, Professor Norwich argues that despite the appeal of inclusion as a single powerful position, its practical realisation involves tensions and dilemmas that have to be addressed and resolved. This core analysis is illustrated by a review of relevant national and international concepts, principles, research and practices drawing on literature in areas of current interest and concern, such as: identification and classification; current national and international conceptions; pedagogic and curriculum issues; organisation of schooling; parental and student perspectives; the contribution of research to policy and practice. Engaging with the fundamental issues in the field and providing a coherent perspective that recognises and justifies the inter-connection between specialised and general school provision, this accessible and timely book will be of interest to all researchers and students of inclusive education.\nDemystifying Secondary Inclusion\nPowerful Schoolwide and Classroom Strategies, 2nd ed.\nAuthor: Lisa Dieker\nPublisher: National Professional Resources Inc./Dude Publishing\nIn the second edition of Demystifying Secondary Inclusion, acclaimed author, professor and teacher trainer, Dr. Lisa Dieker, provides practical, realistic and helpful ideas and techniques for including students with disabilities in the general education classroom. In truly inclusive classrooms, teachers focus on practices that are proven and promising for all students. Teachers understand the individualistic nature of learners, put students at the center of planning and instruction, and accept responsibility for teaching each and every student. Chapters 1-3 of Demystifying Secondary Inclusion detail ways of ensuring that students with disabilities are included in the general education environment. In Chapters 4-7, additional instructional strategies for embracing all learners are presented. This section also focuses on creating an inclusive classroom climate that facilitates successful learning outcomes. Chapter 8 provides concrete ways to prepare staff for the process of developing and maintaining an inclusive environment and offers examples of successful practices from strong schools. Each chapter ends with a set of questions to encourage reflection on current practice. Seven overarching and interdependent topics provide the basic structure for inclusion outlined in Demystifying Secondary Inclusion. These include: Creating an inclusive school-wide culture Celebrating the success of all students Developing interdisciplinary collaboration Implementing effective co-teaching Establishing acting learning environments Implementing successful instruction Improving grading and assessments The book specifically addresses the most frequent obstacles to inclusion at the secondary level and provides hands-on strategies for improving the teaching-learning process.\nAuthor: Barry Gray,Robin Jackson\nThis book presents an examination of the historical, legal and philosophical contexts within which advocacy services have developed. It discusses the professional and practical issues and problems confronting those running and using advocacy services, the role of advocacy, and advocacy with families and people with communication difficulties.\nTowards Inclusion of All Learners Through Science Teacher Education\nAuthor: Michele Koomen,Sami Kahn,Tiffany A.

        "raw_content": "The Panama Canal is approximately 80 kilometers long between the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. This waterway was cut through one of narrowest saddles of the isthmus that joins North and South America.\nThe Canal uses a system of locks -compartments with entrance and exit gates. The locks function as water lifts: they raise ships from sea level (the Pacific or the Atlantic) to the level of Gatun Lake (26 meters above sea level); ships then sail the channel through the Continental Divide.\nEach set of locks bears the name of the townsite where it was built: Gatun (on the Atlantic side), and Pedro Miguel and Miraflores (on the Pacific side).\nThe lock chambers -steps-- are 33.53 meters wide by 304.8 meters long. The maximum dimensions of ships that can transit the Canal are: 32.3 meters in beam; draft -their depth reach- 12 meters in Tropical Fresh Water; and 294.1 meters long (depending on the type of ship).\nThe water used to raise and lower vessels in each set of locks comes from Gatun Lake by gravity; it comes into the locks through a system of main culverts that extend under the lock chambers from the sidewalls and the center wall.\nThe narrowest portion of the Canal is Culebra Cut, which extends from the north end of Pedro Miguel Locks to the south edge of Gatun Lake at Gamboa. This segment, approximately 13.7 kilometers long, is carved through the rock and shale of the Continental Divide.\nShips from all parts of the world transit daily through the Panama Canal. Some 13 to 14 thousand vessels use the Canal every year. The Panama Canal serves more than 144 maritime routes connecting 160 countries and reaching some 1,700 ports in the world.\nThe Canal has a work force of approximately 10 thousand employees and operates 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, providing transit service to vessels of all nations without discrimination.",

        "raw_content": "Glimpses of Epic of 8-Year Holy Defense (55)\nIn a couple of weeks, we talked about a series of small-scale operations in the Iraq-Iran war and we came to Val-Fajr 4 operation on the western borders of Iran.\nAs the war machine of Saddam's regime had been seriously damaged in these operations, it targeted the cities and villages of Iran and targeted them with long-range missiles and air raids by bombers. In these criminal acts, hundreds of civilians were martyred most of them children and women.\nIf you remember, we also said that Imam Khomeini had rejected the request of some of the military commanders for retaliatory measures, emphasizing that the Iraqi people are also oppressed by Saddam, and they should not pay the price of the dictator's crimes. The founder of the Islamic Republic of Iran, according to Islamic teachings, emphasized that we have to fight fairly in order to repulse the aggression.\nConcurrent with bombardment and missile attacks against Iranian cities and villages, Saddam dastardly tried to halt Iran's oil exports by targeting Iranian tankers, terminals and ports to compensate for its failures on the battlefield with brave Iranian men. To further embolden Saddam, France delivered a massive military aid to him in targeting Iranian oil tankers, ports and terminals in the Persian Gulf. The French regime handed over five Super Etendard aircraft to the Iraqi air force along with pilots and crew in October 1983.\nThe then French Foreign Minister Claude Chaisson said creation of a military balance in the Ira-Iran war, as well as what he called \"Iraq's peaceful tendencies\" and its rejection by Iran has been the French government's incentive to deliver these aircraft to Iraq.\nThe transfer of these aircrafts to Saddam strengthened the Iraqi air force to attack Iranian ships along Khor Musa area to Khark Island. From the beginning of Saddam's invasion of the Islamic Republic of Iran, France always assisted the dictatorial regime in Iraq. In addition to political and diplomatic assistance, France accepted the MKO terrorist group in its country and provided them with greater organization and access to various countries, including Iraq. France was also the base for organizing the MKO terrorists and transferring them to Iraq to develop a military organization to fight Iran. This trend has persisted till date. Through the MKO headquarters in France, members of this grouplet were transferred to Iraq from different countries and organized military operations there.\nThe MKO intelligence and operational headquarters were based in Paris from where they would carry out espionage on Iran's fronts and the country's conditions. Imam Khomeini, in reaction to expansion of refuge to the MKO terrorists in France, said on November, 22,1983:\n\u201cThe French nation should sense that how you have praised France and what you wrote and done about it, at this juncture, this government destroyed the French reputation. Wherever there is a republic it is the nation which should take control of basic things. I do not accept the French nation to say it is our government. The nation of France should think of preserving its reputation which is being destroyed, put the government in its place and abandon it. This is the government which should be named the biggest terrorist, for, all terrorists have gathered in France, and then it carries out terrorist act. Since the French government has claim on Iraq but Iraq cannot pay it, so, it retaliates over Iranians.\u201d\nThe delivery of French airplanes and missiles to Saddam's regime enhanced the capabilities of the Iraqi air force to attack Iran's oil exporting centers. Many of the Iraqi attacks caused oil spills on the surface of the sea, causing environmental pollution in the Persian Gulf.\nIraqi attacks on oil platforms and some Iranian refineries reduced oil production in Abadan, Tehran, Shiraz and Kermanshah refineries to less than half. According to the Iranian prime minister's report of January 16, 1983, Iran had suffered $56 billion losses when the Iraqi army invaded the country's oil facilities. Khark Island, as the most important Iranian export terminal from the beginning to the end of the war, was one of the permanent targets of Iraqi airstrikes. Iran had deployed its strongest air defense system, including a Hag missile base on the island. Despite the air strikes on the island's quays and oil tanks, the oil exports from the island were never cut off till the end of the war. Officials of the Islamic Republic of Iran repeatedly announced that the Islamic Republic was the only country which could guarantee peace and security in the Persian Gulf in the wake of increased attacks on terminals and oil tankers. However, they stressed that if Iran was not able to export oil from the Persian Gulf, the oil of none of the Persian Gulf littoral states would be passed from the Strait of Hormuz. This reaction of Iran to the Iraqi attacks on terminals and oil tankers with the help of the Persian Gulf Sheikdoms and western regimes led to reactions at the regional and international levels.\nJapan's Foreign Minister called for the end of war at the meeting of October,7,1983 with the Speaker of the Islamic Consultative Assembly. In response to him, the Islamic Republic of Iran declared that we are seeking peace, but without securing our peace conditions, we will not have peace. On the other hand, he was asked to give up the transfer of the remaining 2 billion credits that Japan was supposed to give to Iraq, but, noting that this was a credit for non-war expenditures, Japan's assistance to Iraq continued.\nWith the superiority of the Islamic Republic of Iran on the battlefields, Saddam's supporters arrived in the arena to confront the Islamic Republic of Iran directly. Following the Iraqi threat of attacking Iranian oil installations in the Persian Gulf and Iran's severe response to the threat, some of the Arab regimes in the Persian Gulf urged the US to have military presence in the region. The US regime took advantage of this opportunity and the American war department prepared a plan to protect what it calls \"the US interests\" in the Persian Gulf oil fields. Under this plan, an organization called \"Rapid Reaction Force\" was established. With the increase of Iraqi attacks in the Persian Gulf and Iran's warning on blockading the Strait of Hormuz on the condition of Iraqi targeting of Iranian tankers, the US dispatched 2,000 Marines from Beirut to the Indian Ocean and from there to the Persian Gulf. The aircraft carrier Ranger along with six other ships set out to the Indian Ocean in October 1983.\nUpon the increase of Iraqi assaults on ships in the Persian Gulf, as well as attacks on residential areas, then UN Secretary General Javier Perez de Cuellar sent an investigative delegation to Iran and Iraq. The panel issued a report on heavy losses in Iranian cities and residential areas caused by Iraqi air and missile strikes. The report formed the basis for the issuance of Security Council resolution 540. The draft resolution was presented to the Security Council by the three countries, Zaire, Togo and Guyana. The resolution was issued on October 31, 1983, following the spread of the war in the Persian Gulf and the Iraqi usage of French Super-Etendard and Exocet missiles. Resolution 540 was the fourth resolution on the Iraq-Iran war, which was placed on the agenda of the Security Council, and eventually passed by 12 votes in favor and abstentions by the countries of Malta, Pakistan and Nicaragua. The resolution, for the first time, mentioned the realistic review of the war and called on the Secretary-General to start consultations with both parties for stopping the war; although there was no mention of the aggressor and the costs of losses and casualties of the aggression on the invaded country.\nFK/ME",

But it\u2019s mum on what drug companies can and cannot do to get its message across on the same online media.\nAre you wondering what the Food and Drug Administration is thinking about drugs? Just follow them on Twitter. And if you don\u2019t like reading 140 characters or fewer Tweets, check out the FDA on Facebook. Don\u2019t like Facebook? No problem. You can always use LinkedIn to see what many of their employees are talking about.\nIt\u2019s really quite heartening to see a federal agency as consumer oriented as the FDA using social media platforms to communicate. In fact, virtually every federal agency that protects consumers benefits from social media as a communications tool. Check out the Federal Trade Commission (Facebook), the Securities and Exchange Commission (Twitter), the Consumer Product Safety Commission (LinkedIn), and even the White House (Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter).\nAnd information on some not-so-consumer-friendly federal agencies are readily available on social media. Check out the Internal Revenue Service (LinkedIn) and the Central Intelligence Agency (LinkedIn).\nBut the FDA is special. It operates on a double standard. What the FDA thinks is good for itself, the FDA does not think is good for the industry it regulates. Despite repeated requests from the drug industry and hearings at the FDA, the agency has failed to provide any meaningful guidance on how pharmaceutical companies are supposed to use social media in their marketing.\nThe agency\u2019s silence is quite odd, particularly since social media is so widely used by consumers and could be such a rich medium for education and reporting. At last report from WebMD.com, 83.3 million unique users visit its site every month perusing more than 1.8 billion page views a quarter. In the social media space, 2,177 are connected to WebMD on LinkedIn, 52,393 like their Facebook page, and 160,240 follow WebMD on Twitter.\nJust what is it then that the FDA is so afraid of? Apparently, it boils down to an issue that has preoccupied the FDA ever since the FDA reluctantly allowed direct-to-consumer (DTC) prescription drug advertising in 1985 (after having called for a two-year moratorium in 1983 after some drug companies started using print ads in 1981 and television in 1983).\nThe issue that has vexed the FDA is the necessary disclosure of risks associated with a drug in DTC drug advertising. To understand the evolution of this concern, let\u2019s take a look at how the FDA\u2019s love/hate affair with drug advertising evolved and what has led it to schizophrenia in social media.\nIn 1985 when the FDA officially permitted DTC prescription drug advertising, it did so despite its belief that such advertising was not in the public interest. So the FDA divinely split DTC advertising into three \u201cbuckets\u201d: \u201chelp-seeking\u201d advertisements (ads that describe a disease or condition without reference to treatment but that urge consumers to consult with their doctor), \u201creminder\u201d advertisements (ads that name a medication but provide no information on the drug\u2019s purpose), and \u201cproduct-claim\u201d advertisements (ads that include both the name of the drug and the condition for which is can be prescribed. No special disclosures are required for help-seeking or reminder ads.\nBut if a company publishes a product claim ad, the FDA requires disclosure that conveys a \u201cfair balance\u201d of risks and benefits that includes warnings, precautions, contraindications, and adverse events. Recalling print ads, it\u2019s generally an entire page seemingly from the Physicians\u2019 Desk Reference, the medical profession\u2019s bible for drugs.\nIn 1997, the FDA relaxed the rules for broadcast advertising provided they disclosed where consumers could get information that would generally appear in print ads, e.g., a health care provider (for example, a doctor), toll-free telephone number, the current issue of a magazine that contains a print ad, or a Web site address.\nWith that background, enter social media and, in particular platforms like Facebook, LinkedIn, and Twitter, where the messages are often brief and more like teasers than actual ads. What disclosure rules should apply to those ads? Because the FDA has failed to answer that question or issue sensible guidelines, the industry, following the logic of the broadcast standards, has adopted the so-called \u201cone-click rule\u201d where all the disclosures are available by one click on a link in the ad.\nWhat could be more efficient than providing full disclosure a mere click away when the same disclosures in broadcast require the consumer to seek out off line resources or a Web site? If the social media ad itself provided the Web site with a simple click, what more could be required? It all made sense and companies began marketing via the one-click rule.\nThen in 2009 this logic all suddenly went into cyber-history when the FDA issued enforcement letters to 14 companies concerning Google banner ads, claiming that their failure to include risk information violated federal law. Worse, when later asked about the one-click rule, the FDA stated it \u201cnever had what some are referring to as a one-click rule.\u201d Talk about a wake-up call!\nThe result was complete confusion. Why did the FDA take such a stand without warning? Wasn\u2019t the logic of the one-click rule impeccable? Do not the social media platforms provide the most robust opportunity for disclosure immediately during the consumer\u2019s visit?\nYet today, it appears that having all the disclosure in the world a mere click away isn\u2019t good enough for the FDA. The result was a virtual exodus by drug companies from marketing in social media.\nThis has been followed by hearings but a failure to issue guidelines. Indeed, in its recently published \u201cStrategic Priorities: 2011 \u2013 2015,\u201d the FDA\u2019s only mention of social media was in the context of woman\u2019s health, where the agency opined, \u201cSocial media tools can help meet some of [the] FDA\u2019s communication[s] challenge. We are planning to use social networks to create a virtual community.\u201d Could it be that the FDA has returned to its early belief that such advertising was \u201cnot in the public interest\u201d?\nEnough already. What\u2019s good for the goose is good for the gander. It\u2019s high time for the FDA to log on and provide drug companies \u2014 and consumers \u2014 with guidance on social media marketing.\nCopyright 2011. ALM Media Properties, LLC.

        "title": "blogging | PhD Blog (dot) Net",
        "raw_content": "Blog Posts \u2013 Those Unpublished Drafts\nPeter Rawsthorne\u2019s list of \u2018half-finished\u2019 blog posts reminds me that I have several texts at various stages of development myself. Some of the participants in my PhD research described similar blogging practices when it came to generating unpublished drafts.\nHaving multiple texts (or at least ideas for texts) \u2018on the go\u2019 at any one time is not exclusive to academics who blog. As curious and engaged researchers, we create numerous short-form and informal texts in our everyday academic actives; to make notes, record events and projects, conceptualise and synthesise ideas, and construct arguments. However, in deciding to share some of these in the public domain, the academic blogger encounters additional motivations and considerations as to when (s)he decides to publish them, and in what state. Many bloggers it seems, may have a number of blog posts in draft form, at various stages of completion, at any one time. But there is little discussion around how they determine if and when a blog post is considered \u2018finished\u2019 and ready for public view.\nAttitudes to how \u2018well-written,\u2019 substantive or formalised a blog post should be may differ considerably. Anyone who reads this blog regularly will know I have a flexible attitude to what constitutes a blog post \u2013 and have argued previously for the blogging space as a site for experimentation (in format, style, content and subjectivity), free of many of the constraints associated with formal academic outputs.\nTopicality can be a factor here too. Bloggers may feel it necessary to draft a blog post quickly if it is in response to another blog post (such as this one), or if it is related to a breaking event or a new publication. However, some posts may remain dormant and incomplete for some time if there is little impetuous to finish and publish them.\nThe strategy of stockpiling completed drafts may also be a common practice. Though I think the pressure to blog regularly is often over-emphasised, having a number of posts \u2018in reserve\u2019 can be seen as being useful, particularly for busy periods when blogging is a low priority. In addition, some posts may be temporarily withheld if they compromise formal publication opportunities, or simply kept for a time when they will have the most impact.\nFurther Thoughts on Blogging Profs.\nFollowing my previous post on Professor Pat Thomson\u2019s new blog, a few things have been nagging at me in terms of the wider context of professorial blogging and the nature of influence in social media practices across academic hierarchies.\nIt is reasonable to assume that professors who choose to blog play a role in inspiring early researchers within their disciplines to do the same, but does this necessarily lead to adoption? If I see a professor presenting at a research conference, I might be inspired, but I may not be eager to jump up there and do the same.\nIn my experience, some of the most crucial barriers to postgraduates starting to blog centre on perceptions of academic quality, reputation and audience \u2013 something along the lines of:\n\u201cI don\u2019t have much to say / contribute (at this stage in my studies)\u201d\n\u201cNobody is interested in what I have to say\u201d\n\u201cI don\u2019t have the confidence to share my thoughts on a public platform\u201d\n\u201cI may regret putting my ideas online that will appear academically naive in the future.\u201d\nWe might reasonably assume that senior academic bloggers are highly knowledgeable, confident and articulate, with a rich portfolio of research and experience to draw on, and an ability to attract a critical mass of fellow academics. However, whilst they may inform and inspire, might the apparent maturity, assuredness and gravitas of their blogging practices actually deter early researchers from blogging themselves?\nOf course, we should not necessarily assume that senior academics have the experiences and competencies of using blogging platforms. They may be new adopters to social media generally, and cautious of the potential implications to their own professional identities and reputations.\nBut we cannot realistically expect these busy academics to spend any amount of time on informal online dissemination without good reason. I\u2019ve written before on the multiple purposes of blogging (that are often interrelated in complex ways), and there is no reason why a professor should be any different. For some it may be no more than a minor box-ticking exercise in demonstrating research impact, an online platform for self-promotion, or a resources dump. Others may seek to develop more dynamic, discursive and reflective blogging environments, which invite debate, engage with their current practice and research, and demonstrate a willingness to share ideas and expose their own inconsistencies, doubts and challenges.\nWhich of these are the most likely to influence and affect social media practice in their field?\nPat Thomson, Professor of Education at the University of Nottingham, has just launched a new blog with a batch of interesting posts.\nHaving attended a number of her tough but highly effective sessions on academic writing in the School of Education, I am particularly familiar with her post on Swales and Feak\u2019s exercises in skeleton writing. Her book with Barbara Kamler, Helping Doctoral Students Write: Pedagogies for Supervision, has rightly become recognised as a key text (don\u2019t be misled by the title \u2013 it\u2019s just as useful for PhD students). The recently published Routledge Doctoral Companions (for students and supervisors), which she co-edited with colleague Melanie Walker, have also been indispensible in my own research.\nOf course, these represent only part of Pat\u2019s research interests and experiences, so it will be interesting to see how she decides to develop the blog. As @PatParslow suggested in a subsequent Twitter discussion, professorial blogging is all too rare. Yet in my experience of talking with other PhD students, professors who do blog can be enormously influential (probably far more than they realise) in legitimising blogs as platforms for research dissemination, particularly in under-represented disciplines.\nBlog Action Day is an annual event held every October 15 in an attempt to unite the world\u2019s bloggers in posting about an issue of global importance on the same day. This year\u2019s issue is climate change and falls on the day as it was revealed that the Arctic Ocean will be almost entirely free from ice within a decade.\nThe Catlin Arctic Survey, completed earlier this year by a team led by explorer Pen Hadow, represents the most current research into the condition of Arctic ice. Peter Wadhams of the Polar Ocean Physics Group at the University of Cambridge, who analysed the data said: \u201cThe summer ice cover in the Arctic will completely vanish in 20 to 30 years time. There won\u2019t be any sea ice there at all.\u201d\nBlog Action Day is an annual event held every October 15 in an attempt to unite the world\u2019s bloggers in posting about an issue of global importance on the same day.

This comprehensive, planned approach to improving our environmental performance resulted, in 2006, in certification of all of our Operating Lines and ships in accordance with the ISO14001 standard. Each Line\u2019s EMS outlines our commitment to compliance with applicable environmental legislation and regulations, and lays the groundwork for addressing the immediate and long-term environmental impacts of our cruises on the ocean, the air, and the natural habitat of our destinations.\nIn 2008, we expanded our commitment to transparency by deciding to publicly disclose the environmental, social and governance performance of each of our lines, using the internationally recognized Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) framework, to augment the annual Environmental Management reporting effort that we began in 2005.\nPublication of our 2009 Sustainability Reports has enabled us to benchmark our collective performance and to identify opportunities for improvement moving forward. This reporting process has already proven to be of value to our business, as it allowed us to:\nShare best practices and lessons learned among ships and operating companies;\nIdentify and address opportunities for improvement;\nDevelop mechanisms for closing gaps in accountability and data availability; and\nSet the record straight on how we manage the environmental and other sustainability impacts of our operations.\nThese reports also help us to focus energy on our sustainability direction for each Operating Line as well as for the Corporation, so that we can continue to build upon the multi-year momentum of our sustainability activities.\nCarnival Corporation & plc began publishing Environmental Management Reports in 2006 (for FY2005).

        "raw_content": "Born in Harare Zimbabwe in the mid 1970s, Ryan Barton-Grimley (RBG) grew up as far away from the Hollywood system as could be. When not watching lions, television was a rare commodity during those formative years. Young RBG would get to watch an episode of \u201cDallas\u201d or \u201cThe A Team\u201d if he was lucky enough to be visiting his grandparents who had the only working TV that he had access to. Date night in the RBG household meant that young RBG would accompany his parents to the Drive In. When he wasn\u2019t playing around or falling asleep in the back seat he enjoyed watching \u201cThe Magnificent Seven\u201d and \u201cThe Wild Bunch\u201d.\nBlessed with an overactive imagination and a plethora of imaginary friends, writing scripts and acting out scenes came naturally to RBG. Fortunately for his creative spirit he was given relatives that lived in Encino who were professional actors. Family vacations were a time of exploration and discovery. RBG went from being starved for media to visiting California and being hit over the head with it. All the relatives\u2019 children were actors and it became clear that RBG could become one too.\nWhether living in an African Country or coming to live in the states, RBG always felt like the outsider. Always feeling like the other, RBG explored that realization in his early art projects and writing. \u201cTaxi Driver\u201d and \u201cRepo Man\u201d heavily influenced his 14 year old punk rock self. Movies were windows into other counter cultures that RBG had little or no exposure to. When he saw \u201cMidnight Cowboy\u201d it was the the first film to him that explored gender and sexuality through the main characters, setting and genre. The western elements of \u201cMidnight Cowboy\u201d enhanced the masculinity of the protagonist and the film showed how anyone could be queer making it a groundbreaking film at the time and introducing RBG to other lifestyles.\nAfter impressing the right person with a script that he had written RBG\u2019s first feature film was called \u201cThe Truth\u201d, a home invasion thriller. Armed with a half a million dollars and an A list cast the film was a great learning experience and laid the groundwork for how he should approach making indie films in the future. RBG met Doug Mueller working as the production designer on the \u201cThe Truth\u201d. The next time the two decided to collaborate Mueller was in the director\u2019s seat and RBG was in front of the camera for the film \u201cRepatriation\u201d.\nThe film follows high school baseball star Chad returning to his hometown for a night on leave from the Army. Dressed in a soldier\u2019s uniform he bar hops his way through the small town reconnecting with childhood friends and foes but it\u2019s clear that not everything is as it seems. Initially RBG didn\u2019t set out to have as big an influence on \u201cRepatriation\u201d, Mueller had a lot of faith in him as the lead actor and wanted his perception on the project. Editing to RBG is like the last step of a rewrite.\nIt has been very important to RBG that he has been able to edit on almost everything he has worked on. With a little muscle and influence Mueller welcomed RBG doing a rough edit of the film. That allowed Mueller to consolidate the tone he was trying achieve in the picture. Approaching the new cut with a fresh set of eyes Mueller and RBG found the process to be very collaborative. It was that meeting of the minds that crafted such a memorable and polarizing feature film. \u201cRepatriation\u201d tackles strong themes like honor and regret with honest slice of life performances.\nTech savvy and never one to shy away from picking up a camera, RBG is a jack-of-all-trades and brings a wealth of knowledge to every production. \u201cElijah\u2019s Ashes\u201d was another movie he was working on at the same time he was making \u201cRepatriation\u201d. After being turned down for years and not being able to attach any big stars to the project. RBG decided to direct and star in it alongside his brother in law Ari Schneider. The film is a comedy about homophobia centered around two half brothers, one straight and one gay that decide to honor their father\u2019s dying wish and go on a road trip together to bury his ashes. The film is a sardonic fish out of water journey of brotherly love and acceptance.\nHow do you follow up on a military drama and a comedy about homophobia you ask? With a vampire slayer comedy of course. RBG is currently filming \u201cHawk and Rev\u201d. \u201cHawk and Rev\u201d is a homage to every 80s macho action hero movie, with a dash of Clerks and Napoleon Dynamite for good measure. The dimwitted and underpaid Hawk and Rev must save their small unsuspecting town from evil blood sucking vampires.\nRBG\u2019s love of film is apparent in every project he undertakes. The best filmmakers try to reinvent themselves and RBG is proving that he won\u2019t be put in a box or stifled. Free thinking and always exploring new points of views audiences will want to take notice of a true renaissance man in RBG.",

        "raw_content": "Brotherhood papers sometimes run pieces which they call \u201cBook Review.\u201d They take various books, review their contents, give summaries of the life of the author, and thus entice the readers of the paper to read the book. I have found a book which is reviewed very little, if ever, by most of the advocates of \u201cmodern preaching.\u201d I would like to review it here and commend it to your reading.\nThe author of this book has been around forever and a lot of his ideas on religion are commonly looked upon as being outdated and old-fashioned. He holds some really \u201ctough\u201d views on many \u201cdoctrinal issues\u201d with which we are presently faced. Among these are:\nHis conception of the New Testament church: He teaches that there is only one right church, and that it is right because it adheres to the Bible only in all matters of faith and practices. He denies that we should extend fellowship to the denominational world \u201cupon their acceptance of Jesus as the Christ.\u201d He denies that there are many \u201cknowledgeable Christians scattered among the denominations.\u201d It is his view that unless one obeys the commands of the New Testament, he is lost!\nHis view on the Mechanical Instrument of Music in Worship: He holds that to add mechanical instruments is to do that which there is no authority. As a matter of fact, not one time from beginning to the end of his book do we read of his giving approval to this practice in the New Testament church. With him singing is all that is allowed, not singing and playing, and singing and humming.\nHis view on Marriage, Divorce and Remarriage: The author of this book believes that for a man (any man) to marry and divorce for any reason other than fornication, and remarry, places him in the sinful state of adultery. It is further his position that the only way for him to have forgiveness for this sin is for him to repent (turn away from, break off the adulterous union).\nHis View of False Teachers: He teaches that if a man is teaching error and will not repent, he needs to be \u201cmarked\u201d and fellowship withheld from him (Romans 16:17-18).\nThese are just a few of his oddities which seem to have lost their place in our system, but still, this book is a good one.\nThe book under consideration was written over a period of 1600 years. It mentions many of the men known by its author, their failures and successes, their doctrinal stances, and their dealings with the author.\nIt contains poetry, history, and biography. It tells of love, hate, war, peace friends, and enemies. It is so popular that it has been printed in many languages and dialects.\nAt one time in history, only high-ranking church men were allowed to possess it. It was revered as the greatest book ever written. It was the desire of all mankind to own a copy, but most were denied this privilege. It was once heeded by all religious men as the high standard of judgment, and its words once filled our land with zeal. However, I have recently noticed its decline in popularity. We no longer hear it used in the pulpit as it once was. People have become so \u201cimage-minded\u201d that they feel the use of this book might scar the image of the church. People are desiring to hear \u201csmooth things,\u201d and not the contents of this book.\nYou have guessed by now, the author\u2019s name is JEHOVAH, and the name of His book is THE BIBLE. The honor it was once paid has been turned to scorn in some places. But this writer still loves the Book, and its Author. We need to spend our time reviewing the contents of God\u2019s Book and preaching His Word.\nTags TIm Smith, book, author, church, New Testament, teaches, divorce, fellowship, mechanical instruments\n\u2190 Scripture Snaps - Amos 5:24Worship Versus Service and the Object of Worship \u2192",

        "raw_content": "Ways that French Doors Can Improve the Look of Your Home\nFrench doors are a beautiful way to increase the value of your home and let more natural light into the house. If you\u2019ve been thinking about adding French doors to your design scheme, here are some ideas that you can consider for your next home improvement project.\nFrench doors that lead outdoors can make the indoor space look larger. You can also ensure that the French doors are in the same direction as the sunrise so that the room will be filled with natural lighting throughout the day. This provides an appealing visual effect while helping you to save on electricity bills. A door on the balcony of your master bedroom or near the porch makes it easy for you to get outside and enjoy the weather, read a book or enjoy a meal with easy access to your bedroom. You can also position the French doors in your kitchen so that they lead to the backyard or porch. This is a great way to create more open space when you\u2019re entertaining guests and want to bring a pleasant breeze into the house. To add even more light into your room, you can purchase shorter French doors and use the top paneling area of the door space for a horizontal window that is reminiscent of antique architecture.\nYou can also use French doors to accent a certain design feature in your home. If you have an impressive wine collection or want to show off the impressive dishes or souvenirs you\u2019ve acquired from your travels, a small closet or cabinet with French doors is a great way to do this. You can also use accent lighting inside of these small closet spaces to bring more attention to them and to add to the ambience of the room. Replacing the doors of your clothing or linen closet with French doors can also make the room appear more open and will encourage you to keep the contents of your closet neat and presentable.\nOnce you decide on the French doors you want, you can decorate them in a way that will make your space look and feel like it\u2019s one of a kind. Window treatments and drapes that accent the top of the doors add color and texture to the room and still allow natural light to come in through the glass accents of the French doors. You can also use colored glass for the French doors to change the way the sunlight is reflected into the room and to match the color scheme of the room. Adding etched glass in some of the window spaces can also customize the doors and make them specific to your family, especially if you add glass that includes your monogram or a short inspiration saying that is special to you and your loved ones.\nBefore you decide on the French doors you want, make an appointment with a contractor and have your doorways measured for precision. You can also get the advice of an interior designer to figured out the style of doors that are best for the design scheme of your home.",

        "title": "DVD Review: The Lost Dogs, \"It Came From The Basement\"",
        "raw_content": "DVD Review: The Lost Dogs, \u201cIt Came From The Basement\u201d\nWritten by Dw. Dunphy\u2022 October 1, 2011\u2022 DVD Reviews, Music\nThe Lost Dogs emerge with a vintage concert for the DVD release, It Came From The Basement.\nThere is a lot of history that has passed between the members of The Lost Dogs, both as a unit and among the individual members of the group, some logging more than forty years making music. That expanse is evident not only in how the band plays their current music, but how they adjust their live sets.\nThere\u2019s no better example of this than the collection that comprises this DVD, a document of a show that, literally, came from the basement as the Dogs frequently do house concerts. Landing between the albums Nazarene Crying Towel and The Lost Cabin And The Mystery Trees , songs from the groups first album Scenic Routes intermingle with what would have been their most recent at the time of this recording, Mutt , which was a covers album, which covered material each bandmember had written and recorded with their other numerous bands. We\u2019re talking about seven official albums at that juncture, and where usually at that point band members might have a bristling, subsurface disdain for each other (I\u2019ve seen it in bands after three outings, much less seven) the core of the group shares a camaraderie more akin to family than bandmates.\nThe sound on the DVD is very good, and that has as much to do with the controlled area it was recorded in as it does with who recorded it (in this case, exec. producer Jeffrey Kotthoff and Jeff Elbel from the band Ping). The visuals, however, are pretty weird, but in a good way. At first it might be offputting to viewers to find how things were assembled, more like the presentation at a seedy drive-in showing a Roger Corman b-movie than a concert feature. There are jump cuts from song to song as opposed to the usual flow of a live recording, but once you\u2019ve adapted to the eccentricities you can start to appreciate the fun all involved are having. Without these trappings, you would have had footage of the band playing a show in a basement. With this band, that\u2019s all well and good but not visually dynamic (last time I checked, it\u2019s still impossible to get a sweeping crane shot in a basement).\nThe songs, as hinted at before, include favorites like \u201cWhy Is The Devil Red?,\u201d Americana-flavored rockers like \u201cBullet Train\u201d and \u201cA Certain Love\u201d and the satirical fan favorite \u201cBad Indigestion\u201d featuring this poignant lyric, \u201cThe God of our benefits is the great cornucopia, moves His great vegetable hand, puts a little fruit into all of our baskets, helps us function better in the can.\u201d\nFor those who simply appreciate well-played tunes by seasoned pros who aren\u2019t at each other\u2019s throats or not simply doing it for a crass reunion check, It Came From The Basement is a solid hour of entertainment. For fans of the band, it\u2019s required viewing.\nIt Came From The Basement is available from Lo-Fidelity Records in three purchase configurations (including audio soundtrack from the show as either a digital download or CD).

He said that though there have many difficult periods in the past, India has overcome them through collective efforts. He said that India has a huge market. A domestic demand driven strategy may be appropriate at this time. He said that there is no point in merely lamenting and spreading negative sentiments, as it would not help solve problems. No country can live in isolation. Sometimes, domestic solutions alone are not enough. In the short term, problems may appear difficult and insurmountable. However, if we can focus on the long term, we have nothing to worry, he stated. Our history of economic growth gives us confidence. He said that every problem could be solved through determination, application of mind and hard work.\nThe President urged the members of the 176 year old MCCI to instill confidence amongst themselves and also to spread it around the country.",

        "raw_content": "\u00ab coming back!\naftermath. \u00bb\nI was there in my current favorite outfit \u2013 gray tweed blazer (with the elbow patches), small-checked black and white shirt, black vest, dark purple plaid tie, dark navy jeans, and my ever present wingtip oxfords.\nI mention this only because apparently my appearance threatened this man. A lot. Even though he knows me virtually from the online class, knew already what I brought to the table.\nHe told me I obviously didn\u2019t know who I was. Clearly my appearance was confusing. Clearly I was resistant to being the person others saw me to be. Clearly because I do still have my eyebrows shaped, I wear a little makeup on my eyes to hide the bags of my age, clearly for these reasons I can NOT be butch. Clearly my voice is too high for me to be wearing a blazer. Clearly I should be wearing a women\u2019s blazer.\nI showed him a headshot I sometimes (rarely) use \u2013 it\u2019s my \u201cgirl next door shot\u201d, the most girly thing I\u2019ve ever mustered on film. He hated it because I wasn\u2019t looking at the camera like a lover. I showed him my MOST used headshot, the one where I AM looking at the camera like a lover. He loved it but said there\u2019s no parts for me anyway. I asked him if I should change my appearance to be more castable. He said if I knew myself at all I already would have changed my appearance. He said LA will never have anything for me as I am.\nHis wife, the casting director I so admire and the teacher I\u2019m learning from, came over at that point to join the conversation. She heartily disagreed with his saying I should \u201cfemme up\u201d. But she posited a good question: what does the money tell you? By which she means, what do the people who hire actors say about my look, or how I should present myself?\nI don\u2019t really have an answer for that one, because back when I had an agent, and was going out regularly for auditions, it was because I was WAY more traditionally butch. Flannel shirt wearing and 50 pounds heavier (not that butches must be heavy, by all means). But then I would get into the audition and they would think I was too pretty. Too sweet. So I don\u2019t fucking know.\nWhen the event ended (we closed the bar) I stumbled to my car in the valet. Halfway through the drive home, I burst into tears. I didn\u2019t really stop until this morning.\nI had gone to the event late because I had a personal training session at my gym earlier in the evening. I go to the gym so I can lose another 15 pounds and look as good as possible in a tank top. To be an actor. This was my first training session in almost 10 months, and I over did it. I threw up on the side of the road while driving to my actor\u2019s networking event. To be an actor.\nI went to the event and was trying to talk with people I didn\u2019t know, which was hard because I (surprisingly) knew a lot of folks there.\nI talked to this man because he is the husband of my teacher.\nI cried all night because everyone, everyone, EVERYONE in my professional life keeps telling me WHO I AM. And they all disagree with one another. But they all think they\u2019re right.\nThey don\u2019t care that I\u2019ve spent thirty years hiding in plain view. Trying to be out of the closet while still not being \u201ctoo gay\u201d. This man actually told me that what I was wearing could NOT be my favorite outfit. He declared it. He ganged up on me with a few others. I was stunned. I don\u2019t even want to continue the class. I need some therapy, but a therapist who understands the acting industry \u2013 all the non-acting-industry therapists I\u2019ve met with tell me they think I\u2019m nuts for doing this at all.\nWhy am I doing this again? Maybe I don\u2019t know who I am. Maybe he\u2019s right.\nThat guy is a douchenozzle, and I am really sorry you had this experience.\nI think the connection between this: \u201capparently my appearance threatened this man.\u201d and this: \u201cHe told me I obviously didn\u2019t know who I was.\u201d is extremely important.\nYou\u2019re right on the money. Your appearance does threaten him. The problem here is that HE is uncomfortable with how you present yourself. HE doesn\u2019t know who you are. HE has incredibly stupid and antiquated ideas about gender and also HE expects you to \u201cbe a man,\u201d when really what you are is a masculine woman.\nI can\u2019t imagine how difficult it must be to be a butch actor. You get judged for your \u201clook\u201d all the time. I don\u2019t have any advice about the professional part of things, but I feel you on getting the too butch/not butch enough double whammy. It sucks. It hurts. But you are definitely not alone. Hang in there!\nDouchenozzle Galore, the ugliest Bond girl. \ud83d\ude42 I\u2019ll just have to think that whenever I interface with him, now won\u2019t I? Thanks so much for the support, Gr.\nHere, here, Gr!\nThis sounds like a horrible experience. No one knows you better than you. Period.\nI\u2019m sorry you had to deal with such closed minded jerks.\nI\u2019m all about therapy, been in analysis for years and its been life changing for me. It may take a little time, but I\u2019m sure there is a therapist out there who is a good fit for you.\nKnow that you\u2019re not alone, hugs!!\nThanks seagmu, I sure need the hugs. I\u2019m all about therapy too \u2013 trying to get on the list for low income therapy at the glbt center here, so it\u2019s been a few years since I\u2019ve been in it regularly. Thanks for reading (and acting temporarily as surrogate therapist\u2026) \ud83d\ude42\nI\u2019m not an actor, but I write. I want to write professionally, and I\u2019m close to finishing a manuscript that will soon go out into the world to be judged and rejected for being too something (too transcentric, too queer, too morbid, too mfa, too vapid, too disconnected, etc). I think about all those writers out there who refused to assimilate, and who made it anyway. For each one success, there had to be at least a few hundred thousand out there who didn\u2019t make it. I don\u2019t know which one I\u2019m going to be.\nIt can be maddening not to know, and to sit down every day to work on something that may or may not ever meet a reader. It IS maddening to hear rejection from people who clearly do not understand that assimilation means a kind of death behind the eyes that will only ensure further failure.\nThe most comforting thing I\u2019ve ever been told about this whole process is that I can\u2019t get rid of it. I can proclaim to be done and concentrate my energy on something different, but the need to write will always be there, tugging at the ends of all my other pursuits. I think acting is similar in that it brings makes possible the otherwise impossible, and brings a unique joy to those who participate (the actor and the viewer). It will just always be there, no matter how many people challenge your right to bring it in front of the camera.\nI wish very much that you hear a yes soon.\nThanks Jack \u2013 \u201cThe most comforting thing I\u2019ve ever been told about this whole process is that I can\u2019t get rid of it\u201d \u2013 that is comforting for me to hear as well. Every time I stop performing I feel like I can\u2019t breathe until I start again, even though it\u2019s almost always incredibly scary and painful. And congratulations on being close to the finish line (at least, the first finish line) with your manuscript! We as artists have a duty to create and ship our creations into the world. I think that simple act pushes us closer to the one than the hundred thousand \u2013 at least, that\u2019s what keeps me going.\nHey, I\u2019ve been reading your blog here for a while now and haven\u2019t commented but I felt that I really needed to because this really pisses me off.\nI\u2019m really sorry you went through that, you\u2019re stronger than I am. Because I\u2019d be running out of the room bawling my eyes out within the first five minutes.\nI don\u2019t care who this guy is or who he thinks he is, he had absolutely NO right to talk to you like that. He doesn\u2019t know you, maybe he thinks he does but he\u2019s an idiot. Obviously only YOU know YOURSELF. And these people who think differently are really stupid. I don\u2019t know anything about the acting world but even if he does know a thing or two or everything it still doesn\u2019t make him right in this stuation and he should have never treated you like that.\nI don\u2019t understand where people get the balls to start policing how people should look or present themselves. Nothing gets under my skin more than guys like this. Just because HE\u2019S uncomfortable he has to make you feel like shit? It was very unnecessary and rude and just an asshole move.\nAgain I\u2019m really sorry this happened, like I said you are so much stronger than I. You\u2019re putting yourself out there and it\u2019 s hard to do that and still try to be yourself especially when everyone has an opinion. But you do it, and rather well I might say. So fuck guys like that.\nI hope you cheer up soon (well actually from your latest post I gather you have but sitll) you\u2019re too awesome not to. I will be sending happy thoughts your way\u2026..actually what would be reallly useful I think is bitch slap in a box.\nYou take the box to him one day say \u201cHey I have something for you. I think you\u2019ll really like it.\u201d and then SLAP! Bitch slap express. I think that would greatly help improve your mood.,\nYeah ok that was lame but I\u2019m tired and not so good with the humor at the moment.\nSorry I babble.\nHey Stacey \u2013 don\u2019t know if I ever wrote back to this, but I wanted to say thanks, and let you know that I would LOVE to give a \u201cbitch slap in a box\u201d to that guy\u2026 I\u2019m still in his class, and he\u2019s still a dick, but I\u2019m coping. Hope things are well with you. Best \u2013 Max",

I started my journey two days ago in New York City. During my trip, I took three flights and spent about 20 hours on planes! This is the longest trip I have ever taken.\nFlying over Mauritius is beautiful! The island seems to pop out of nowhere. From the plane, I can see turquoise waters and white beaches. From above, it looks like paradise!\nOnce off the plane, I show my passport to an immigration officer. I get a stamp that showed I\u2019m welcome in Mauritius.\nOver the next two weeks, I will explore the sugarcane fields, colorful temples, and marine life of the Indian Ocean.\nOnce I learned I was travelling to Mauritius I did lots of reading to learn about the country. Everything I read talked about how diverse the country is. For example, several languages are spoken in Mauritius \u2013 French, English, and Mauritian Creole. These languages tell the story of different groups of people who have settled on the island.\nOn my way from the airport to the hotel, I hear French and English. I studied French in school so I am able to speak a little with the people I meet.\nMauritian Creole is a language that is based on French mixed with several African languages. Mauritian Creole developed as a way for slaves who spoke different languages to communicate with one another. I bet that I can understand a little, but speaking it could be very tricky!\nDiscovery, the Dutch, and the Dodo",

        "raw_content": "Plectranthus hadiensis\nPlectranthus hadiensis (Forssk.) Schweinf. ex Spreng. var. hadiensis\nCommon names: hairy spurflower; harige spoorsalie (Afr.); ilozane (isiXhosa); imbozisa (Zulu)\nPlectranthus hadiensis var. hadiensis is an attractive perennial shrub with decorative foliage, suitable for planting in humid,moist and lightly shaded areas in small gardens.\nPlectranthus hadiensis var. hadiensis is a herbaceous perennial, 1.5m high and 1m wide. The semi-succulent stems are red at the base and leaves are arranged alternately with axillary buds at the base of leaf petioles. Leaves are ovate to round, 35-100mm wide, delicate, soft and hairy, sometimes variegated. Margins are toothed with 4-14 pairs of teeth.\nThe terminal inflorescence is 500mm long with pairs of side branches and mauve to white flowers arranged in a whorl, 10-30mm apart. Flowering time is from autumn to winter with a peak in autumn (April to June). The corolla is 8-15mm with a down-turned tube that widens towards the throat. Calyx is 2-3mm and enlarges to 5-6mm after flowering.\nDark brown nutlets, 8mm in size, are formed and released when ripe.\nPlectranthus hadiensis var. hadiensis is not threatened and is Red-Listed as Least Concern.\nPlectranthus hadiensis var. hadiensis has a widespread distribution from the Eastern Cape and KwaZulu-Natal provinces in South Africa to the Arabian Peninsula. It ccurs in forests and open grassland in well-drained, rich soil, usually amongst rocks where annual rainfall is between 700 and 1000mm.\nPlectranthus is derived from the Greek words anthus meaning flowers and plectron meaning spur which refers to the characteristic spur on the base of the corolla tube \u2014 hence the common name spurflower. The species name hadiensis is derived from the Arab name from where it was first collected, the Hadiyah Mountains in Yemen.\nPlectranthus is a genus in the family Lamiaceae. Members of the Lamiaceae typically have square stems, whorled flower arrangements, aromatic oils and two-lipped flowers.\nThere are 350 Plectranthus species, which are widely distributed in Africa, India and Australia, with 53 species found in South Africa and Namibia. The South African species with the greatest horticultural potential are found from the Eastern Cape to KwaZulu-Natal.\nPlectranthus hadiensis var. hadiensis was first discovered by Pehr Forssk\u00e5l in Hadiyah, Yemen and it was named Ocimum hadiensis in 1775 in the Flora of Egypt and Arabia (Van Jaarsveld 2006). The genus Plectranthus was not yet established, but it was the first Plectranthus to be described and was only transferred to Plectranthus in 1894 by the botanists Schweinfurth and Sprenger. Plectranthus hadiensis var. hadiensis is closely related to P. grandidentatus which has light green leaves with large-toothed margins, and P. madagascariensis which has smaller leaves, a cascading growth habit and white flowers.\nThere are three varieties of Plectranthus hadiensis:\nvar. hadiensis which occurs in the middle and coastal areas of KwaZulu-Natal forests and eastern parts of South Africa;\nvar. tomentosus which is found in semi-coastal areas from the Kei River towards the coast of KwaZulu-Natal and extending inland;\nvar. woodii which has tuberous roots that help it to survive fire in the dry woodlands of the Eastern Cape and KwaZulu-Natal.\nPlectranthus hadiensis var. hadiensis looks like a soft perennial yet it is surprisingly drought-tolerant. It adapts easily in dry areas, as it has semi-succulent stems. During periods of drought it will wilt, but will recover soon after it receives water. They root at the nodes of broken branches, usually in summer-rainfall forests rather than in dry grasslands, and thus have a way of spreading vegetatively.\nIn the past Plectranthus hadiensis var. hadiensis was used to poison fish and traditionally used as a medical enema. It is also used as a charm against evil spirits.\nPlectranthus hadiensis var. hadiensis is a decorative perennial with horticultural potential. Kirstenbosch has a number of cultivars that have been released to the plant trade.\nGrowing Plectranthus hadiensis\nPlectranthus hadiensis var. hadiensis has become a good garden plant. It is a decorative plant, fast-growing, easy to propagate, requires little maintenance, ideal for either planting in the garden or for potted specimens, and also gives gardeners who think they don't have green fingers a burst of confidence.\nThis plant is best propagated vegetatively by means of tip and stem cuttings in summer. Take cuttings from a healthy and disease-free mother stock at the coolest time of the day, preferably morning when the plant is vigorous. Use well-drained soil, such as river sand mixed with perlite, vermiculite or pebbles. Cut the stem at 150mm below the node, remove a third of the leaves from the bottom. Rooting hormone is not necessary. Keep the cuttings in a warm, humid area with good air movement and keep the soil moist but not wet. Rooting takes place after 2-3 weeks and once well-established, transplant cuttings into containers and water regularly until they are fully grown. Established plants can be transplanted into bigger containers or into the garden.\nPlant them densely together for a thick and compact foliage in garden beds. This species performs very well in well-drained, composted soil and requires occasional water in summer. Feed with an organic fertilizer to improve the plant quality. Pinch out spent inflorescence to encourage new growth and buds. Prune the tips of the braches to control and encourage growth.\nFew pests attack these plants.\nCodd, L.E., De Winter, B., Killick, D.J.B. & Leistner, O.A. 1985.

(Author)\nA biography of the American-born Congregationalist Minister Thaddeus Osgood (1775-1852) whose evangelical missionary work first brought him to Lower Canada in 1807. Though initially he concentrated on the distribution of religious tracts in the Eastern Townships and Montreal, his interests increasingly turned to the problem of illiteracy among the poor. In Montreal, he opened several schools during his life-time, but received little support from either the Anglican or Catholic hierarchy for these undertakings. In 1835 he founded the Friendly Union for \"the suppression of vice and the promotion of useful knowledge\" in Montreal, which was endorsed by the city's dissenting clergy. A building, sometimes called the Bethel, was erected in Montreal in 1837 to accommodate religious services and a Sunday school, and within a year it harboured a small day-school. However, over the next fifteen years, Bethel functioned primarily as a shelter from the city streets for the city's poor.\nhttp://pi.library.yorku.ca/ojs/index.php/hssh/article/view/38648/35059\nMillar, W.

The algorithm produces a quantum state that is proportional to the solution at a desired final time. The complexity of the algorithm is polynomial in the logarithm of the inverse error, an exponential improvement over previous quantum algorithms for this problem. Our result builds upon recent advances in quantum linear systems algorithms by encoding the simulation into a sparse, well-conditioned linear system that approximates evolution according to the propagator using a Taylor series. Unlike with finite difference methods, our approach does not require additional hypotheses to ensure numerical stability.",

        "raw_content": "Joyce Brothers Quotations\nJoyce Brothers Quotes about:\nJoyce Diane Brotherswas an American psychologist, television personality and columnist, who wrote a daily newspaper advice column from 1960 to 2013. In 1955, she became the only woman ever to win the top prize on the American game show The $64,000 Question, answering questions on the topic of boxing, which was suggested as a stunt by the show's producers. In 1958, she presented a television show on which she dispensed psychological advice, pioneering the field. She wrote a column for... (wikipedia)\nThe topic of trust is an important factor in all matters of the heart - and here's why. Men lie to women. Women lie to men. And most people agree that some lying is even necessary - to avoid petty squabbles and to grease the wheels of a relationship.\nThe world at large does not judge us by who we are and what we know; it judges us by what we have.\nAccept that all of us can be hurt, that all of us can and surely will at times fail. Other vulnerabilities, like being embarrassed or risking love, can be terrifying, too. I think we should follow a simple rule: if we can take the worst, take the risk.\nFeeling gratitude isn't born in us - it's something we are taught, and in turn, we teach our children.\nVirginity is such a personal thing. You can't judge anyone on it. A lot of young women feel they want to save themselves for the man who they think they'll love forever.\nMarriages, like careers, need constant nurturing... the secret of having it all is loving it all.\nThe cynic finds love with the idealist. The rebel with the conformist. The social butterfly with the bookworm. They help each other balance their lives.\nReal intimacy is only possible to the degree that we can be honest about what we are doing and feeling.\nBeing taken for granted can be a compliment. It means that you've become a comfortable, trusted element in another person's life.\nCredit buying is much like being drunk. The buzz happens immediately and gives you a lift... The hangover comes the day after.\nIf Shakespeare had to go on an author tour to promote Romeo and Juliet, he never would have written Macbeth.\nGet Back Quotes\nI have found in work that you only get back what you put into it, but it does come back gift-wrapped.\nNever try to negotiate with anyone after he or she has eaten. People are best persuaded on an empty stomach. And forget power breakfasts. There is no convincing anyone of anything before 10 A.M.\nFor men to be virgins, we think it's negative. We think that there's something wrong with them.\nI don't give advice. I can't tell anybody what to do. Instead I say this is what we know about this problem at this time. And here are the consequences of these actions.\nThere is such a thing as bad publicity.\nMen are not conditioned to be less powerful than a woman. It will be the wise woman who realizes this and is sensitive to that issue.\nI watched the Trade Center buildings go down from my balcony, and it was a terrifying moment. I couldn't get my mind around it at all.\nI've enjoyed the pleasures of working since I was 12 and earned all my own spending money since I was 14.\nReal intimacy depends on truth - lovingly told - especially in the bedroom.\nAs a celebrity, you get a certain number of free passes. You're actually in a better position if you're a celebrity because people care.\nInterested Quotes\nWe're so interested in it because it's different for everyone.\nHere we have a man who did all he could for his company and was thrown out. But a dog will repay loyalty with loyalty.\nThe more we have, the more we want. And for this reason, we never have it all\nMen have two basic needs. Neither of them, no matter what they say, is sex. They need love and they need work. And work takes priority over love. If a woman could know only one fact about men and work, it should be that work is the most seductive mistress most men ever have.\nWhatever a man thinks about sex, you can be sure that he thinks about sex almost constantly.\nThe simple but observable fact is that the more you love, the more you are able to love.\nThere is a rule in sailing where the more maneuverable ship should give way to the less maneuverable craft. I think this is sometimes a good rule to follow in human relationships as well.\nListening, not imitation, may be the sincerest form of flattery. . . . If you want to influence someone, listen to what he says. . . . When he finishes talking, ask him about any points that you do not understand.\nWomen who are confident of their abilities are more likely to succeed than those who lack confidence, even though the latter may be much more competent and talented and industrious.\nSmall Details Quotes\nHappiness hides in life\u2019s small details. If you\u2019re not looking, it becomes invisible.\nNothing brings families together faster than forgiveness. That should make it Step No. 1, but most of us find forgiving hard. We associate it with weakness and losing when, actually, the reverse is true. When you forgive, you gain strength and come out a winner. You break free of control by the other person's actions.\nThe only people who don't make mistakes are the people who don't do anything.\nThey say that money is not everything. I say that when you don't have any, it is everything.\nAny man who watches more than three consecutive football games on TV in one day can be declared legally dead.\nScientists still know less about what attracts men than they do about what attracts mosquitoes.\nSome men are self-made, but most are the revised work of a wife and children.\nHuman Behavior Quotes\nA person's self-concept is the core of his personality.\nIf you change nothing, nothing changes.\nNot Knowing Quotes\nThose who are the most happy appear to know it the least; happiness is something that for the most part seems to mainly consist in not knowing it.\nIf we did get a divorce, the only way my husband would find out about it is if they announced it on Wide World of Sports.\nIt is a man's world at the top, at the bottom, and in between. Men are in the catbird seat as far as income, opportunity, status, and power are concerned. This is the way it always has been and, as far as men are concerned, it is the way it always should be.\nLove, real love, is not simply a state of bliss. It is an ever-changing state, the result of time and emotional development, of trust and commitment.\n... no matter how great the differences are between men and women, the differences among members of the same sex are usually equally great if not greater.\nWhen you come right down to it, the secret to having it all is loving it all.\nMusic is stored in our long-term memory. When we learn something through music, we tend to remember it longer and believe it more deeply. Dr. Joyce Brothers\nSex and love are like tea and milk. They can be mixed or they can be taken straight. Each has certain distinctive characteristics, but when they are combined they form a unique substance.\nHunches are a kind of subterranean logic shorthand.\nStrong families use the word we a lot, but I is never forgotten. Family members know they have the freedom to go off on their own, even if the direction is one that we have never followed before. The family message is, We're behind you, so you can be you.\nA philosopher is a person who doesn't care which side his bread is buttered on; he knows he eats both sides anyway.\nI don't believe in luck.

Life is better. Not the same, but good and getting better all the time.\nThe need to connect with one another intimately is what makes and keeps us human. The challenge throughout life is to find the courage to reach out to potential partners when our primary relationship ends and to recharge our tried-and-true unions when their sizzle starts to fizzle.\nA woman should never underestimate the power of the child in the man. Sometimes the child seems to be in the driver's seat at the very moment when all a man's adult judgment and insight is needed.\nThe best of all possible marriages is a seesaw in which first one, then the other partner is dominant.\nDon't fool yourself that you are going to have it all. You are not. Psychologically, having it all is not even a valid concept. The marvelous thing about human beings is that we are perpetually reaching for the stars. The more we have, the more we want. And for this reason, we never have it all.\nFor some reason, we see divorce as a signal of failure, despite the fact that each of us has a right, and an obligation, to rectify any other mistake we make in life.\nThose who have easy, cheerful attitudes tend to be happier than those with less pleasant temperaments, regardless of money, making it, or success.\nWhen you forgive, you gain strength and come out a winner.\nWhen success comes in the door, it seems, love often goes out the window.\nNo matter how lovesick a woman is, she shouldn't take the first pill that comes along.\nIf your energy is as boundless as your ambition, total commitment may be a way of life you should seriously consider\nIf a child is given love, he becomes loving ... If he's helped when he needs help, he becomes helpful. And if he has been truly valued at home ... he grows up secure enough to look beyond himself to the welfare of others.\nDon't always try to be popular. It isn't possible for everyone to like you. It's far more important for you to like yourself. And when you respect yourself, strangely, you get more respect than when you court it from others.\nI think we should follow a simple rule: if we can take the worst, take the risk.\nAnger repressed can poison a relationship as surely as the crudest words.\nThere's a very positive relationship between people's ability to accomplish any task and the time they're willing to spend on it.\nStudies indicate that the one quality all successful people have is persistence.\nThe greatest happiness is family happiness.\nIn each of us there are places we have never gone. Only by pressing the limits do you ever find them.\nJoyce Brothers Fans Also Likes Quotations from\nCharlotte Kasl",

        "raw_content": "Tag Archive Prayer\nPosts tagged \"Prayer\"\n2 Chronicles 7:14, Colossians 3:1-2, Deuteronomy 4:29, Emily, God, Humility, Isaiah 55:6, Isaiah 55:7, Jeremiah 29:13, John 13, Matthew 6:33, Matthew 6:5-18, Matthew 7:7-8, Prayer, Proverbs 8:17, Psalm 9:10\n4 WAYS TO ENSURE GOD HEARS YOU\nIs there any way to be certain that God is hearing your hearts cries? Any way to know for sure He is listening? The answer is yes! The Bible actually provides us with 4 simple steps to follow that will guarantee God\u2019s ear. So you want to be heard? Here\u2019s how:\nhumble- not proud, haughty, arrogant, or assertive; not thinking of yourself as better than others; reflecting, expressing, or offered in a spirit of deference or submission; not costly or luxurious\nFor a lesson in humility, look no further than Jesus. In the book of John, chapter 13, we find Jesus showing us the perfect example- the Son of God humbled himself to serve each of His disciples by washing their feet.\npray- to make a request in a humble manner; to address God with adoration, confession, supplication, or thanksgiving\nIt\u2019s important to have a prayer life. In Matthew 6:5-18, Jesus teaches us the to do\u2019s and not to do\u2019s of prayer and supplies us with a model prayer, telling us to pray in that manner.\nStep 3: Be a seeker\nseek- to search for or go in search of; to try to find; to try to discover; to try to acquire or gain; to ask for or request; to make an attempt\nGod longs for us to seek His face. Many times our prayer life consists of maybe 10% of thankfulness (if that), and 90% of asking. We rarely set aside time for seeking, although the Bible clearly tells us in numerous places that we are to seek!\nCheck for yourself- Deuteronomy 4:29, Jeremiah 29:13, Psalm 9:10, Proverbs 8:17, Matthew 6:33, Matthew 7:7-8, Colossians 3:1-2, Isaiah 55:6\nStep 4: Turn away from wickedness\nturn- to cause your body/a part of your body/something to face an opposite or different direction\nwicked- morally bad; having or showing slightly bad thoughts in a way that is funny or not serious; very bad or unpleasant\nIsaiah 55:7 encourages the wicked to forsake his way. God cannot hear us if we refuse to turn away from that which is wicked and not of or like God.\nThese 4 steps are so simple that if there is anything blocking us from heaven, it\u2019s because we\u2019re making it too hard. How do I know that these 4 steps will guarantee God\u2019s ear?\n\u201cIf my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.\u201d- 2 Chronicles 7:14\n2 Chronicles 7:14 tells us step by step what our part is and when we do our part, we find an amazing promise of results. Not only will God hear us, but He will also forgive and heal!\nSo you want to be heard? Yes. It\u2019s really that simple.\n*All definitions taken from the Merriam-Webster dictionary app.\nEmily, Emotions, Prayer, Prayer list, Scripture\n1. No rules-\nThis is your prayer journal. It can be however you want it to be. It can include whatever you want to include in it. It doesn\u2019t necessarily have to be prayer requests or prayers at all times. It can be plain. It can be fancy. It doesn\u2019t matter. All that matters is that it\u2019s YOURS.\n2. Write from the heart-\nKeeping a prayer journal is simply a way of putting what\u2019s in your heart on paper. Don\u2019t try to use flowery words to make it sound dignified or professional. You\u2019re not publishing a novel. You\u2019re expressing your soul.\n3. It\u2019s not a diary-\nA prayer journal isn\u2019t about drama. It\u2019s something between you and God and anyone else with whom you choose to share it. It isn\u2019t a place for you to rant about this person or that person or this situation or that situation.If you do this, you\u2019ll eventually get through that season or over that situation, and when you look back on the drama instead of the prayer\u2026.you\u2019ll cringe. By all means, write your heart and how you feel. However, you don\u2019t want your words to be demeaning. Even if no else ever sees them besides you and God. Trust me.\n4. Don\u2019t stress-\nIf you haven\u2019t written anything in a month, don\u2019t worry about it. It\u2019s not about daily writing or even weekly writing. I started mine in a regular single subject notebook over a year ago and I\u2019ve only used half of the notebook. You write in it whenever you feel led to write in it. If this is only once every 6 months, good for you! As I said earlier, there are no rules.\nI started my journal about a year and a half ago and I truly enjoy it. Like I said, my journal is technically a single subject notebook, not the top of the line deluxe edition journal. I only write in it when I feel the desire to\u2026I don\u2019t force it. Some pages have doodles. Some doodles are random, some actually pertain to whatever I\u2019ve written about. Some entries are songs God recently gave me that I want to write down so I don\u2019t forget. Some entries are about a word someone gave me from the Lord. Some are me baring my soul about certain feelings, situations, circumstances. Some are lists of people I need to pray for. Some are thoughts or God drops that I eventually end up sharing with you all on our blog. I even wrote about my #oneverse and #onescripture for 2014 in my prayer journal. At the end of 2013, I wrote a page of memories, good and bad, happy and sad. Some pages are nothing but Bible scriptures that I need to indulge in at the moment. Some pages have quotes that encourage me or challenge me.\nWriting helps you remember.\nWriting helps me to remember. I love going back and reading old entries. I can remember the hardships that God brought me through. I can remember the blessings He showered upon me. I can see answered prayers. I can see worship. I can see growth. It\u2019s not for everyone but it\u2019s something I relish. And I hope one day at the end of my journey to pass my prayer journal on to my children and grandchildren.\nDo you have a prayer journal?

        "raw_content": "Posted by J on Thursday, January 6, 2011. Filed under: crohn's, medical\nToday I woke up feeling pretty good. No pain! Things were going on per usual until I got a phone call around 1 PM from a nurse working for my insurance company. Apparently they are now providing phone support for people with chronic conditions. Then it hit me, shit, I have a chronic condition.\nI sort of had forgotten about it this morning but talking to her got me really upset. It was was her tone of voice, she was nice, of course, but it was the tone that made it apparent that she was very very sorry for me which made me feel horrible. I hung up the phone and just cried. I\u2019m not sure I even know how to articulate this. It seems like people just know all the bad stuff that can happen with the disease, they don\u2019t want to talk about self care during times of relative good health, it\u2019s like we\u2019re always preparing for the next flare. I know the tone of voice was because she knew just what could happen to me and how bad it could get. Like it was a matter of when and not if it was going to happen and that scares the hell out of me. I know how bad this can get and I\u2019m determined to do everything in my power to not let it happen. That doesn\u2019t mean that it won\u2019t and maybe I\u2019m just buying myself some time (or maybe I\u2019m not at all and my next flare is just around the corner). Just once I want someone in the medical field to say, \u201cyou know, you\u2019re going to alright\u201d.\nNo Responses to I cried today",

        "raw_content": "I: Stupidity and/or glory\nAs I stand in the middle of the street, waiting for the bulls to be released, it occurs to me that I should have written down my blood type on a piece of paper and slipped it in my pocket.\nIt\u2019s 7:30 in the morning, July 14, 2005. Out of respect for tradition, I\u2019m dressed in white pants and a white shirt, with a red silk scarf tied around my neck and a red woollen sash around my waist. I\u2019ve been fretting about how tight to tie the sash because, among the many arresting sights I\u2019ve seen over the past eight days, I watched a charging bull catch one of its horns on the inside of some young American guy\u2019s sash and, as you might expect given the size and power of the average Spanish fighting bull, the beast continued to charge down the street while the kid, dangling like an ornament from the bull\u2019s horn, flailed in a desperate effort to come unstuck, getting dragged and tossed and banged until finally the sash ripped and he slipped off and fell, in a heap, on the cobbled stones of Estafeta Street. I\u2019m not sure where the tradition of wearing white comes from\u2014in photographs of the old days you see that people wore whatever clothes they happened to have on\u2014but a good guess would be that it makes it easier for medics to determine where the blood is flowing from.\nIt\u2019s also traditional for runners to carry a rolled up newspaper. For protection. Yes, the only thing that runners are allowed to carry with them to defend themselves against one of the most ferocious creatures on the face of the planet is a newspaper. The theory is that if you\u2019re unlucky enough to be chosen as a target of aggression by one of the bulls, you can throw your paper at the animal and the fluttering sheets will distract it long enough for you to scramble over the fence, or into a doorway, wherever you can. I take a look at my paper. It\u2019s fresh and stiff and unlikely, I think, to produce much of a fluttering action if I throw it, so I roll it one way, then the other, back and forth repeatedly, bending the corners and roughing it up in the hopes that if it comes down to it, my copy of the Diario de Navarra, a colour tabloid that ironically happens to be filled with dozens of pictures of people getting gored by bulls, will save my hide.\nBefore I arrived in Pamplona, there was no question in my mind that I would run with the bulls. I had come to run, and I was going to run. But since the Fiesta de San Fermin is nine days long, and the bulls run every day except for the first, I thought it would be wise to witness a few of the runnings before trying it myself. As each day passed, however, I became less sure that I wanted to go through with it. So, in yet another hallowed Spanish tradition, I kept putting it off until ma\u00f1ana.\nToday, however, is the last day of the fiesta, my last chance. Earlier this morning, without really feeling fully committed, I slipped through the wooden fence, paper in hand, and joined the other runners pacing around. Now I\u2019m sizing up my escape routes. The experts told me I should have some kind of plan, so I walk over to a window ledge to see how high I\u2019d have to jump to get a hold and climb up. It\u2019s beyond my reach, which is, to say the least, not reassuring. Even with the kind of paranormal athletic abilities that a charging bull undoubtedly inspires, I don\u2019t think I could make it, unless I\u2019m lucky enough to be able to springboard off the back of some injured runner below, something I am fully prepared to do if it comes down to it. There is another window ledge lower down, but it\u2019s been boarded up for the event, leaving nothing to grab on to. The street here is narrow, enclosed on each side by essentially smooth walls, so that\u2019s about it for the escape options.\nMy best hope is to make it to the town hall square, where the street widens up and allows for more exiting options. Not that it\u2019s anything like a safe zone. A few days before, someone had pointed out to me the spot in the middle of the square where a xx-year-old American runner was killed in 19xx. He broke the cardinal rule\u2014if you go down, stay down, cover your head and pray you don\u2019t get trampled. Instead, he got up and a bull slammed into him from behind, goring him in the back. This year there have been no deaths, so far, but there are always injuries, every day. It\u2019s just a question of how many.\nI rough up my paper some more, pace, jump up and down, shake out my leg muscles. It\u2019s 7:45. In 15 minutes, six pissed-off Spanish fighting bulls (they\u2019re always pissed off) will be released from a pen about a thousand feet from where I\u2019m standing. I stretch, because that\u2019s what I\u2019ve been told to do. Some of the other runners are also stretching. There is very little talk. Most people keep to themselves. The guy beside me is repeatedly making the sign of the cross and kissing the gold crucifix around his neck.\nFive minutes to go now. I\u2019m walking around thinking, I\u2019m going to go through with this because I said I would, and I\u2019ve made up my mind, and that\u2019s all there is to it. But then I look over to one of the many medical stations on the safe side of the fence and see a woman from the Red Cross squeezing into her latex gloves in preparation for the injured that will surely come. And everything suddenly becomes more real.\nThat\u2019s it, I think. This is really, really stupid.\nII Viva San Fermin!\nPamplona is not the only town in Spain where people run with bulls. Encierros, the Spanish term for the runs, are staged throughout northern Spain although none is as famous as Pamplona\u2019s, thanks to Ernest Hemingway who immortalized the event in The Sun Also Rises. In the beginning, it was merely a way to get bulls from outside the town to the bullring. The bulls ran alone through the narrow streets of the old quarter, and in those old, sensible days, that was spectacle enough. People watched at a safe distance, from behind the barriers. But at one unknown point in history, some thrill-seeking villager decided to hop the fence and run alongside the beasts. Thus a tradition was born. It\u2019s sort of a poor man\u2019s extreme sport because you don\u2019t need any kind of equipment (although, as previously mentioned, a newspaper is advised). Yet there\u2019s one important difference. As opposed to, say, mountaineering or sky diving or whitewater rafting, risk is not just a byproduct of the activity, it\u2019s the whole point. More like Russian roulette.\nOn the first day of the Fiesta de San Fermin, held in honour of the town\u2019s patron saint, I\u2019m standing in Pamplona\u2019s small town hall square with my Spanish cousin Jaime and his brother Gonzalo. Jaime has also come to Pamplona to run with the bulls but Gonzalo is along for the ride.\nHalf an hour before the official start, the crowd has reached what the police consider maximum density\u2014five people per square metre. Some 15,000 people are crammed, and I mean crammed, into the square, waiting for the launching of the chupinazo, a rocket that whistles towards the sky and explodes, signalling the beginning of the fiesta. Another 30,000 are pressed into the surrounding streets, with hundreds of thousands of others packed into bars and other squares around the town, watching on television.\nThough the rocket won\u2019t be launched until noon, most of the attendees have gotten a head start on the festivities, drinking at least one bottle of champagne each, estimating conservatively. Perhaps even more remarkable than the running of the bulls is how much alcohol people can consume if they really put their minds to it. After this particularly dedicated crowd disperses, an army of street cleaners will descend and remove, on average, xx tons of broken glass. Broken because that\u2019s another Pamplona tradition\u2014drink your bottle of champagne, smash it on the ground. (Then get another; repeat.)\nIt\u2019s the first time in my life I\u2019ve seen a crowd of individuals become one entity. Someone, somewhere, leans back and eventually, like a domino effect on a huge scale, a wave of energy passes through the crowd. It\u2019s like a wave in a stadium except everyone participates, everyone, because there is no other choice. The masses flow back and forth, slowly but relentlessly, like a field of wheat under a strong wind. At least a dozen huge white beach balls are floating above, getting punched up again by whoever happens to be nearest when it falls. A giant Basque flag gets unrolled and held high. Someone has released a balloon in the shape of SpongeBob Squarepants.\nWhen noon draws near, the people get louder, but stop pushing as much. As the countdown begins, the crowd, entirely made up of people dressed as Pamplinicos, in white and red, holds their scarves up in the air, chanting wildly in unison. There\u2019s a fervent passion that I\u2019ve never seen before. Even though there is the definite sense that most of the people here have come explicitly to get blindingly drunk, when thousands of people jammed into a small European square hold their blood-red scarves above their heads and shout, at the top of their lungs, \u201cSan Fermin! San Fermin! San Fermin!\u201d it\u2019s a stirring moment.\nThe buzz of that euphoria carries on throughout the day. It\u2019s a bizarre sight to see so many people wearing white and red, walking around town. It\u2019s somehow even more surprising that everyone\u2014including Jaime, Gonzalo and me\u2014goes along with it. It\u2019s not like you have to wear the outfit, but the party-goers, of which at least half or more are from a country other than Spain, seem to be united in their respect for the protocols of the fiesta. Even the few people who aren\u2019t dressed in white make some kind of attempt to play along, usually by wearing the red scarf, which is sold cheaply at endless sidewalk stands and stores around the town.\nAs we wander from bar to bar, the crush of people does not relent. Pamplona is not the place to come if you have any personal space issues because there is no such thing as personal space. Beyond people merely touching up against you, which is always, people may actually lean against you, perhaps to rest a bit, say, when in a bar and getting tired from lifting so many glasses to their lips. By now, just about everyone\u2019s white shirt is covered in splotches of beer or wine or kalimoxo (a mixture of wine and, of all things, Coca-Cola), all of which are sprayed and tossed and spilled everywhere. Various marching bands parade past in deafening musical pods, along with a coterie of energetic partiers in tow. People are dancing everywhere, in the bars, in the streets, on tables, bridges, rooftops. Just about anything goes.\nIn the words of one young American tourist I overhear, the scene is \u201cfull on.\u201d\nLater, we come across a small square where people are climbing up the centrepiece fountain and diving into the crowd. The divers, mostly American and mostly female college students, are in, shall we say, an animated state. If they\u2019re lucky enough to reach the top of the fountain, which is about 20 feet high and involves rock-climbing moves I\u2019d estimate at 5.9, they celebrate their achievement by removing their shirts, then, to a hysterical and adoring crowd, their bras. A few guys try diving as well, but they weigh a lot more than the ladies and are a lot less appealing to catch. The people at the bottom do their best, but with champagne-soaked arms (people are spraying it into the air non-stop) things get a little tricky. One robustly built fellow swan dives off the top of the fountain and the group below tries to catch him but he slips right through their arms, hitting the cobles with a thud that I feel through my shoes from 15 feet away. Injuries at the Sanfermines are not limited to the kind inflicted by bulls. Spaniards look at the mostly American crowd and shake their heads at such stupidity. Running with 1,200-pound pissed-off fighting bulls while wearing white pyjamas is okay. But crowd diving is just plain loco.\nMy apartment in Pamplona is located on the town hall square, the kind of prime spot you can only get if you\u2019re lucky enough to know someone, which in my case was a man named Carlos Gill. I met Carlos through a friend of a friend at a downtown Toronto hotel. He was there leading a conference on tourism and I felt bad to pester him while he was so busy, but when I arrived he quickly shooed away his assistants so that he could devote himself to more meaningful things, such as educating a novice in the art of running with the bulls. A stocky but fit man in his xxxties, he wore red-framed glasses and a bow tie, striking a rakish, continental air. Grabbing me by the arm, he led me to a table where we could sit down. He produced a gold pen and slid over a cocktail napkin to draw a map.\n\u201cFrom start to finish,\u201d he said in a Spanish accent, \u201cthe course is 800 metres long. No one can run the whole thing, so you need to pick a spot to run. You run for a little, then you get out of the way.\u201d Carlos\u2019s favourite stage was at the beginning, where the bulls come out of the gate. Although the road goes uphill there, the bulls are running at their fastest, galloping along at close to 40 kilometres an hour.\n\u201cI wish I could be there with you, Mike,\u201d he told me. For the past 3x years, Carlos has never missed an encierro. When I asked him why he couldn\u2019t make it this year, he explained that while he wanted to go, his wife would probably leave him if he did. Last year, Carlos was gored by a bull and spent x weeks in hospital. Using his finger, he pointed at the spot on the inside of his biceps where the bull\u2019s horn punctured him. At that point the bull was running much faster than Carlos was, and the soft flesh of Carlos\u2019s arm was not about to slow it down. He removed his blazer and unbuttoned his sleeve, showing me the scar, pink and about as wide as a pencil, which ran from near his armpit to the middle of his palm.\nThe first encierro I watched, from the window of Carlos\u2019s apartment, went by in a flash. The crowd was so thick I could see only a slice of the course. Runners fled by in a panic, bulls galloped past, and in seconds it was over. But later on, when Jaime and I went down to the square to wander around, we saw one of the injured being loaded into an ambulance, his head covered in blood.\nIII. Raging Bulls\nBefore I left for Pamplona, my mother, who was born in Spain, asked me somewhat fearfully whether I was going to run with the bulls or just watch. Like a reflex, I said no, no, of course not, that I was just going to watch and take pictures. But she saw right through it. \u201cListen Michael,\u201d she said seriously, pointing a finger at me. \u201cWhen you get there, people are going to tell you that you\u2019re not brave unless you run with the bulls, but it\u2019s much braver to listen to your mother.\u201d\nAs I mentioned, my mother is Spanish and while I am 37 years old, Spanish mothers don\u2019t tend to give up their sons easily. Jaime\u2019s mother must have told him the same thing because while we were drinking beer after beer at 9:30 in the morning, shortly after seeing that guy get loaded into the ambulance, he casually announced that there was no way in hell he was going to run. This came as something of a shock after some months of planning. For reasons of sheer ego preservation I figured he had to go through with it. I remembered what he said to me when I first called him to suggest we should run with the bulls. There was a pause, then he announced with macho conviction that, yes, he did have the appropriately sized balls. But seeing the bulls up close apparently altered his appraisal. Of course, being tuned in to the Spanish way of responding to this kind of situation, I ridiculed his manhood, resisting the temptation to also spit on the ground for emphasis. It seemed like the appropriate reaction. But deep down, I was thinking the same thing.\nThe Spanish fighting bull is a creature that must be seen to be believed. Equipped with sharp, forward-pointed horns designed to inflict mortal wounds, toros weigh as much as 1,300 pounds. Discounting bone mass, the rest is pure muscle. They do not back down from any challenge, even when it would be prudent to do so. (Not that a person carrying a newspaper presents any kind of challenge to a fighting bull.) Their primary instinct is to attack anything that moves in their territory, and they will not relent. Their strength is matched only by their fury. Grizzly bears can be fierce when surprised, especially with young, but mostly they\u2019ll choose the easy way out. Toros, however, are born with an instinctual desire to fight. This, in an animal that is immensely powerful and that SHOWS NO mercy. They\u2019re probably the most single-minded, meanest creatures on earth. And, importantly, they can run a lot faster than you can.\nAfter my first encierro, where I saw little more than a flash from high above the square, I took advantage of my press credentials and situated myself on the corner of Estafeta Street, which is off limits to the public. Everyone in Spain is familiar with this corner. Here the bulls run slightly downhill, at top speed, and more often than not, they slip on the cobbles trying to make the turn, fall, then get up and charge along. Press photographers from all over the world gather here for the action; not so much for the moment when the bulls fall, but more because it\u2019s one of the only places to get a shot of them from ground level. In every other location, runners are right in front of the bulls and it\u2019s nearly impossible to see the animals themselves. On the outside corner of Estafeta, however, everyone knows, instinctively at least, to stay out of the way.\nFor television news stations looking for good highlight material, the encierro is a dream come true. You\u2019re flipping channels and see clips of people running with bulls\u2014who\u2019s going to pass that by? It\u2019s an incredible sight, but seeing it on television does not prepare you for seeing it live, up close, for real. The tension in the air is extreme. Everyone is watching, everyone. It\u2019s not something you can take your eyes away from. The first time you see these giant, ferocious bulls stampeding down narrow streets, with people running right alongside them, behind them and some crazy people right in front of them\u2014people running at their very limit who might at any second get knocked to the ground or trampled or gored\u2014it\u2019s a ridiculous, surreal, intensely riveting spectacle.\nThe only provision for safety that tradition allows is that in addition to the fighting bulls, xx steers also run the course. They\u2019re much bigger than the fighting bulls, weighing around 1,800 pounds, but because they\u2019ve been castrated, they\u2019re not fierce at all. (Though if a runner goes down, there is still the danger of getting stomped on by one or more of them. Generally the steers try to jump or go around things lying on the road, but they can\u2019t always do that. One of the most serious injuries in 2005 was caused by a steer that trampled some fallen man lying in the road, causing massive internal bleeding.) The point of having the steers is that they know the way\u2014the same steers run the route every day\u2014and they help keep the pack together. The last thing organizers want is a fighting bull to get separated from the pack, because it suddenly becomes a much more dangerous animal. The \u2018running\u2019 part of the running of the bulls is crucial.\nIn addition to the steers, a team of shepherds, or pastores, runs behind the bulls. They carry long whippy canes, and whack any bulls that are in danger of lagging behind. If any runner touches a bull, which is forbidden because it might distract the animal from running in a straight line, the pastores will not hesitate to also use their canes to whack that person, hard. Lots of people do get whacked because, apparently, when you\u2019re that close to the bulls, it\u2019s hard to resist reaching out and touching them, although personally I find this hard to understand.\nEach encierro is run with bulls from a different ranch, or ganaderia. The bulls from each ranch are said to have unique characteristics, and aside from the fact that all of them are bad-assed sons of bitches, this is true. In 2004, the bulls with the worst reputation, in terms of numbers of wounded, were from the Jandilla ranch, which is in the south of Spain near Cadiz. That year, Jandilla bulls caused 12x injuries, including eight gorings. That\u2019s in one day. Three minutes, actually. One of the casualties, a local man named Julen Medina, was gored five times in a savage attack. Miraculously, he survived.\nIn 2005, Jandilla upheld its reputation. On the morning of July 11, the worst thing that could happen, happened: a Jandilla bull got separated from the pack. It unfolded right in front of me, and it was terrifying.\nIV: The legend of Jandilla\nHis name was Vaporoso. I would learn that later, the next day, when newspapers across Spain ran headlines such as \u201cVaporoso Incites Panic.\u201d From what I could tell, observing the encierros from about as close as you can get, the bulls incite panic every day. But the newspapers had it right. When I watched Vaporoso in action on Estafeta Street, it felt like something else altogether.\nOf course it all happened so quickly. Lying on my stomach, watching through the viewfinder of my camera, waiting for the bulls to appear as hundreds of freaked-out runners stampeded past me mere inches away, I saw the first bull, and he was galloping at top speed right at me. I slammed down the shutter, firing off three shots, then slid back from the barrier as fast as I could. The bull slammed into the gate right in front of me\u2014BANG!\u2014sounding like a highway traffic accident. I was so stunned that it took me a second to realize the bull\u2019s legs had slid past me on both sides, luckily missing my head. It was mere inches away. A Reuters photographer had set up a remote camera beside me, and one of the bull\u2019s hooves smashed into it, sending it flying in pieces. The bull remained still for a second and instinctively I reached out with my camera to fire off a few shots. Then he struggled to get up, thrashing his legs. I got out of the way and he scrambled to his feet and thundered on down the street, leaving behind clumps of hair on the cobbles beside me, as if to confirm that it really did happen. The other bulls had already run by and I thought the encierro was over. Then I heard the screams.\nAnother bull had fallen earlier, getting separated from the rest. I looked up and saw him trotting down the road. Shiny black, rippled with muscle, and looking for trouble. Vaporoso suddenly turned around sharply, coming to a full stop, lashing his tail. Everyone running behind also stopped suddenly, causing a pileup. The bull just stood there, scanning the crowd. And then he charged. That\u2019s when the real panic started. He lowered his horns and plowed into one hapless guy and sent him flying like a ragdoll. Then he charged after someone else, slamming into him and dragging him across the cobbles with his horns. The guy, obviously injured, tried crawling away from the bull but Vaporoso kept after him. The man was trapped against the wall, cornered. The bull took aim and swung his horns powerfully, with a ferocity that was sickening to see. I thought for sure the guy was going to die right in front of me. Some brave runner grabbed the bull\u2019s tail, and was quickly joined by two others. Together, they heaved back in a frantic effort to save the man\u2019s life, but Vaporoso kept digging and digging with his horns. I remember the man, surrounded by people who were powerless to help him, holding out his arms in a pathetic attempt to stop the unstoppable bull. It was horrifying. The pastores rushed in, whacking the animal with their canes, but to no avail. For all I knew the man had been fatally gored. I certainly wouldn\u2019t have been surprised. Then suddenly Vaporoso turned around and went after someone else, tossing him in the air end-over-end. Then someone else. People were shrieking, I remember that, too. Vaporoso started galloping the right way down the street for a few feet, but then he turned again, running at some young guy trying desperately to get to safety. A policeman behind the fence tried to help the kid up but came too close and Vaporoso lunged, goring him in the leg. More shrieks, more mayhem. The policeman fell back, out of reach, so Vaporoso continued on, zeroing in on other trapped runners. But at least now he was going the right way. Just before I lost sight of him, he had slammed another runner to the ground. And then he was gone.\nLater that day, when I saw the complete run on a television replay, I saw that Vaporoso had caused havoc throughout the course. Even at the very end, just before entering the corral, he had turned and gored a 19-year-old Colombian kid in the thigh. By the end of the encierro, which lasted more than five minutes\u2014twice as long as normal\u2014Vaporoso alone had caused some 30 injuries. Eleven of those people had to be hospitalized, and four of them had serious goring wounds requiring surgery.\n\u201cIt didn\u2019t end in a horrific massacre by a matter of millimetres,\u201d said the Noticias de Navarra the next day. One of the runners Vaporoso sent to the hospital happened to be Julen Madina, the same guy who was gored five times by a different Jandilla bull the year before. I remember quite well the moment I read that in the newspaper. It was a watershed moment for me. After witnessing the fury and strength of a Spanish fighting bull, up close, the only conclusion I could come to was that really, honestly, you have to be out of your mind.\nV: To run or not to run\n\u201cDon\u2019t run, Mike,\u201d said Felipe, putting his hand on my shoulder and looking me in the eyes. Felipe was a musician who specialized in a Basque percussion art called chalaparta. I had watched him and his brother play a number of times during the week, and one day we struck up a conversation. Afterwards, whenever we bumped into each other, we\u2019d stop to chat awhile. I was touched by his concern\u2014we hardly knew each other. But it also made me less sure than ever. The fact he was a local, from a town not too far from Pamplona, somehow made his words count more. \u201cIt\u2019s dangerous, Mike,\u201d he said flatly, staring at me. Despite what my mother said, the locals weren\u2019t trying to talk me into it, they were trying to talk me out of it.\nOf course I\u2019d known it was dangerous from Day One, but after seeing Vaporoso lay waste to the crowd, I knew what he meant. It wasn\u2019t just dangerous, it was dangerous. Yet the truth is that the vast majority of runners in Pamplona don\u2019t get injured, and for the most part, the ones that do get hurt are the people running right in front of the bulls\u2019 horns, something I was definitely not planning on doing. Maybe, if I was careful, I could experience the thrill without getting killed in front of a worldwide television audience. I had had the good fortune to get tips from expert runners who had been at it for years. Hundreds of people who didn\u2019t have that information ran every day and they came out of the encierro perfectly fine. Sweaty, perhaps, high on adrenalin, for sure, but fine. While it is incontestably risky, it\u2019s also, particularly if you come out of it alive, undeniably thrilling. After each day\u2019s encierro I had seen the faces of the runners, shining with excitement. I talked to at least a dozen first-time runners, and most of them were still visibly shaking. They looked a lot more alive than the people who wait for the streetcar outside my Toronto apartment every morning.\nIn Pamplona, that zest for life, sensation, is infectious. At first I found it weird that immediately following the encierro, such a dramatic event in which people are often nearly killed, the party rages on. The bars that line Estafeta Street roll up their metal shutters and the fiesta literally explodes. The morning starts with terror, then like hitting a switch, turns to fiesta. But eventually I came to understand it a little better. Despite all logic, it\u2019s the energy left over from the encierro that propels the spirit of the fiesta. I\u2019ve been to many other fiestas in Spain, and none match Pamplona for sheer, unbridled passion. It\u2019s hard not to get wrapped up in it. The vibe is overwhelming.\nThe day before the final encierro, thinking about adventure, Vaporoso and the meaning of life, I wandered around town, wondering what to do. If I left here without knowing what it was like, I might regret it. But I didn\u2019t want to do anything truly stupid, either. And the problem is, there\u2019s a fine line.\nVI: Off the fence\nKa-BOOM! The rocket goes off with a thunderous explosion, signalling the corral gate is open and the bulls are loose. I must be even dumber than everyone else because at least I know better, but I\u2019m still here. And now this is it, showtime.\nImmediately after the rocket sounds, people start running. I try to remain calm, hopping up and down in order to see where the bulls are. If you want to actually run with the bulls, Carlos had told me, you have to wait until they get near, otherwise you\u2019ll just be running with other people. But it\u2019s not easy to wait. It should take about 30 to 40 seconds for the bulls to reach me. Runners are fleeing past on both sides, leaving me nowhere to move. There\u2019s a distant low rumbling sound, the noise that heavy, hoofed animals make on stone cobbles. People are running faster now, and as I hop up and down and desperately scan the action moving my way, I catch sight of the bulls in full gallop. Now runners are tearing by me in a reckless mass. A second later the bulls are as close as I can bear and instantly I turn and start sprinting as fast as I can. Zero to 100 per cent in three strides. I\u2019m running flat out, packed in tight. There are people inches away from me\u2014in front, in back, on the sides\u2014also running flat out. One wrong move by any of us and we\u2019ll collide and hit the deck for sure. I don\u2019t dare look back right now. I just run, fast. The only thought that goes through my mind is that at least nobody is passing me.\nOne thing I quickly realize about having an escape plan is that it is entirely and utterly pointless. The moment the bulls near your position all hell breaks loose and it\u2019s chaos. Any refuge you thought you might be able to find is already being used by someone else. The walls along the route are in some places 10 people deep and all the good spots have already been taken.\nI\u2019m not a particularly good runner, but today I\u2019m pumping along at a historic clip. When I enter the town hall square, I glance over at the fence I had considered hurling myself over in case of trouble, but the crowd there is at least 20 people deep, impossible to penetrate. I have no idea how close the bulls are, but they feel close. My heart is racing, from the exertion, from the adrenalin. It doesn\u2019t feel real. I just run as fast as I can and then suddenly the rumbling gets so loud I know the bulls are right behind me. In those moments you don\u2019t think, you just act. I veer off to the left, snap my head around to see what\u2019s coming and the bulls, tightly grouped, storm past me in a blur, more than close enough.\nI\u2019m so pumped from the action that after the bulls thunder by, I run after them. They\u2019re far enough ahead that I don\u2019t feel there\u2019s any more serious danger now but I have to bleed off the exhilaration somehow, so I run at full bore again, savouring the excitement until finally, winded, I slow down.\nBefore I come to a complete stop, though, there\u2019s shouting coming from behind me. I turn to see what\u2019s going on, thoughts of Vaporoso racing through my mind. Runners are parting to each side of the street, and then I see the cause of the excitement, three 1,800-pound steers galloping along at a reasonable pace, their bells clonking. After nine days of running encierros some of the steers take it easy, bringing up the rear at a more leisurely pace, a little tired, it seems, of the routine. It\u2019s somehow heartwarming to see them. If not exactly friendly, at least they have no burning desire to kill me. With no fence in between us, they look even bigger. Immense, actually. And, I might remind you, plenty dangerous in the right circumstances. I start running again and for a stretch I run alongside them, grinning stupidly, revelling in the moment. I get close, within arm\u2019s reach, and for a few seconds I\u2019m running right beside the bulls in Pamplona. Not the fierce ones, okay, but I\u2019ve had my fill by now. After a stretch, I slow down a little and let them overtake me. As the last one passes by, exhausted but still feeling triumphant, I reach over and slap it on the ass.",

        "title": "the \"B\" side: Ann Sexton - It's All Over But The Shouting (77-125)",
        "raw_content": "Ann Sexton - It's All Over But The Shouting (77-125)\nIt's All Over But The Shouting\nAlright... the last time we featured an Ann Sexton record up here it was as part of our post about Gene (Bowlegs) Miller back in 2007, where I said:\n\"In 1971, John Richbourg had leased a single by a South Carolina singer named Ann Sexton from a small label called Impel for release on his new Seventy Seven imprint. He would send her to Memphis (along with David Lee, who was apparently the owner of Impel and Sexton's manager) to record with Miller, and the resulting single is one of my (and O Dub's) favorite records ever. As far as I can tell, You're Gonna Miss Me (now up on The A Side) is the first record where 'BoLegs' is given credit as the producer. It would crack the R&B top fifty in the fall of 1973... I don't have any session info here, but It actually sounds more Muscle Shoals than Memphis to me.\"\nWell there's been a couple of new developments since then, and I figured it was time to take a closer look...\nFirst off, our good friend (and walking history lesson) Howard Grimes told me that he played drums on those 'BoLegs' produced Ann Sexton singles, and that they were indeed cut in Memphis at Mercury's former Universal Studio on Chelsea Avenue. This is the studio that we've been focusing on over at Soul Detective, where Ed Crawley cut those great Memphians backed Joe Perkins singles around the same time. According to Google Maps, that's the building pictured above, on the corner of Chelsea and Fifth. It would later become Isaac Hayes' H.B.S. complex. I'm not sure what's there now.\nAnyway, the second major development, and pretty much the entire reason for this post, is the man listed as Miller's co-producer on that earlier 45, David Lee.\nAt the time, the only information I could find on him was that he was \"apparently the owner of Impel, and Sexton's manger...\" Well, Paradise of Bachelors has changed all that. Made up of indefatigable champion of Carolina Soul Jason Perlmutter and his partner Brendan Greaves, these Bachelors have left no stone unturned in their quest to bring Mister Lee some of the recognition he so richly deserves. They are now into the second pressing of their positively excellent LP, Said I Had A Vision - Songs & Labels of David Lee, in which they had this to say; \"Paradise of Bachelors... largely owes its existence to the artistic legacy of David Lee, a veritable impresario who has doggedly pursued a variety of roles over the last fifty years; songwriter, performer, producer, preacher, record label entrepreneur and record store owner, working man, family man.\"\nObviously a labor of love, this stunning re-issue package has been done right. Pressed on heavy vinyl, and accompanied by a full-size booklet of in-depth liner notes and photographs, there's even a download code so you can import it right to your iPod. Very, very cool, indeed - but the real star of the show is the music.\nOriginally released on Lee's own Impel, Washington Sound and SCOP imprints, it runs the gamut from driving Rock & Roll and Funk to achingly beautiful Soul and haunting Gospel that grabs you and won't let go. The common thread, of course, being the unique genius and uncompromising heart of David Lee. Just amazing, and virtually unknown, material from groups like The Constellations (who dared to be integrated long before the rest of the South was ready for it) and Carolina Gospel stalwarts The Singing Melleraires make this album a joy to listen to and an absolute must-have.\nWith that said, I don't want to try and summarize the Bachelors' hard-won liner notes here (I'll let you buy your own), but let's talk a little more about David and his biggest star, Ann Sexton.\nLee opened a record shop and audio supply store in the small town of Shelby, North Carolina in the late sixties. It was located directly across the street from a chitlin' circuit venue called the Washington Center. In 1971, David attended a show by a Greenville, South Carolina band called the Masters Of Soul, and was just knocked out by the lead singer. The wife of bandleader Melvin Burton, she agreed to come back and listen to a demo of a song Lee had written that he thought would be just perfect for her. She and Melvin agreed, and they all made the trip back to Greenville for a session at Mark V Recording.\nThe resulting 45, released on Lee's own Impel label, started to make some local noise, and Lee got up the courage to play it for fabled WLAC dee-jay John R, who was visiting a record store in Charlotte. Always on the lookout for new material, John knew a good record when he heard one, and leased it for distribution on his own fledgling Seventy-Seven label. Richbourg began playing it on his radio show and 'stayed on it', making You're Letting Me Down a bona-fide regional smash, selling almost 100,000 copies in the process. The phenomenal B Side, You've Been Gone Too Long, has gone on to become one of those 'northern soul' records. Both sides are included on the 'Vision' LP.\nWith David Lee as producer and Melvin Burton as the arranger, John R financed a few sessions at as yet unknown locations over the next few years (prior to the aforementioned 'BoLegs' sides), resulting in two truly excellent follow-up 45s. This smokin' number we have here today was the flip of the second of those, Have A Little Mercy. A cover of a song Johnny Bristol penned for Gladys Knight and the Pips at Motown the year before, this version is even better. One thing I can say about David Lee's productions for sure is that he understood the importance of a good guitar part... I'm not sure who's playing it, but check out that Wes Montgomery inspired break there - word! This is great music, friends, and when viewed in context with the previously unheard body of work (by most of us, anyway) uncovered by the Bachelors in their Said I Had A Vision retrospective, it gives you an idea of just how talented David Lee really was. Wow!\nAs mentioned in that earlier post, Ann Sexton would go on to chart for Seventy-Seven with the Memphis Sound of You're Gonna Miss Me, and once more for Sound Stage 7 after John folded his own label. She has remained a fan favorite in Europe, where she's been booked regularly at the Baltic Soul Weekender in recent years. This past October, she returned to Shelby to perform along with David Lee as part of their Art of Sound Festival. Now, how about that?\nDavid Lee has continued to live an unassuming and steadfast life of faith with his beloved family in the Cleveland County borderland where he was born. Perhaps the deepest insight into his singular sense of Soul can be found in his own I'll Never Get Over Losing You, which has been re-issued on the LP. \"Sure, there's a lot of heartache in those songs, but that's what sells. It relates to people. If it don't relate, they soon forget about it.\"\nThanks to Paradise of Bachelors, we won't soon forget about him.\nGo buy this record right now. You won't be sorry.\n[all photographs in this post are used with the kind permission of Paradise of Bachelors, and remain their own copyrighted property. Thanks, guys!\"]\nEmily Epley said...\nWe are so excited that these folks are getting well deserved recognition. Brendan Greaves is to credit for that through a relationship developed with David Lee while Greaves was working with us in Shelby, NC. Greaves came as a oral historian to help gather stories in the area of music from our community for the future Earl Scruggs Center: Music & Stories of the Carolina Foothills. (opening end of 2011 or early January to coincide with Earl's birthday). David Lee and his work will be recognized in the Center. Emily Epley www.mydestinationcc.org\nThanks for the heads up about the David Lee collection. Looks like Paradise of Bachelors did a beautiful job of putting it together.\nI'm off to order a copy....",

It was recently translated from the Dakota by Dr. Clifford Canku/Mato Watakpe and published in the book The Dakota Prisoner of War Letters; the original is in the Collection of the Minnesota Historical Society.\nDavenport, Iowa April 17, 1865\nS.R. Riggs\nWell, my relative, I wish to write you a letter, we have heard news. They have said that the President [Abraham Lincoln] was killed. But someone of authority should tell us if this is not true. Thus, my relative, I write to you this letter. Also, I have heard several rumors, therefore, I want to write you this letter \u2013 it is so. The President has compassion for us, as so far we are still alive, but now they told us he was killed, and we are saddened. Those of us here think if this is so, we are heartbroken. Perhaps the attitude of the cavalry soldiers may change toward us. Tell me what your thoughts are, I want to know, that\u2019s why I write to you. Then I wish to hear exactly how they killed the President. Then, also on Sundays when I am able, I do the preaching to them.

It can be contrasted with fish physiology, which is the study of how the component parts of fish function together in the living fish.[1] In practice, fish anatomy and fish physiology complement each other, the former dealing with the structure of a fish, its organs or component parts and how they are put together, such as might be observed on the dissecting table or under the microscope, and the latter dealing with how those components function together in the living fish.\nThe anatomy of fish is often shaped by the physical characteristics of water, the medium in which fish live. Water is much denser than air, holds a relatively small amount of dissolved oxygen, and absorbs more light than air does. The body of a fish is divided into a head, trunk and tail, although the divisions between the three are not always externally visible. The skeleton, which forms the support structure inside the fish, is either made of cartilage, in cartilaginous fish, or bone in bony fish. The main skeletal element is the vertebral column, composed of articulating vertebrae which are lightweight yet strong. The ribs attach to the spine and there are no limbs or limb girdles. The main external features of the fish, the fins, are composed of either bony or soft spines called rays, which with the exception of the caudal fins, have no direct connection with the spine. They are supported by the muscles which compose the main part of the trunk.[2] The heart has two chambers and pumps the blood through the respiratory surfaces of the gills and on round the body in a single circulatory loop.[3] The eyes are adapted for seeing underwater and have only local vision. There is an inner ear but no external or middle ear. Low frequency vibrations are detected by the lateral line system of sense organs that run along the length of the sides of fish, and these respond to nearby movements and to changes in water pressure.[2]\nSharks and rays are basal fish with numerous primitive anatomical features similar to those of ancient fish, including skeletons composed of cartilage. Their bodies tend to be dorso-ventrally flattened, they usually have five pairs of gill slits and a large mouth set on the underside of the head. The dermis is covered with separate dermal placoid scales. They have a cloaca into which the urinary and genital passages open, but not a swim bladder. Cartilaginous fish produce a small number of large, yolky eggs. Some species are ovoviviparous and the young develop internally but others are oviparous and the larvae develop externally in egg cases.[4]\nThe bony fish lineage shows more derived anatomical traits, often with major evolutionary changes from the features of ancient fish. They have a bony skeleton, are generally laterally flattened, have five pairs of gills protected by an operculum, and a mouth at or near the tip of the snout. The dermis is covered with overlapping scales. Bony fish have a swim bladder which helps them maintain a constant depth in the water column, but not a cloaca. They mostly spawn a large number of small eggs with little yolk which they broadcast into the water column.[4]\n3 Vertebrae\n5 External organs\n5.3 Gills\n5.5 Scales\n5.6 Lateral line\n5.7 Photophores\n6 Internal organs\n6.1 Intestines\n6.2 Pyloric caeca\n6.4 Kidneys\n6.8 Swim bladder\n6.9 Weberian apparatus\n7 Reproductive organs\n7.2 Ovaries\n8.1 Central nervous system\n8.3 Identified neurons\nFile:Anatomical Directions and Axes.JPG\nAnatomical directions and axes\nIn many respects fish anatomy is different from humans and other mammals, yet it shares the same basic vertebrate body plan from which all vertebrates have evolved: a notochord, rudimentary vertebrae, and a well-defined head and tail.[5][6]\nFish have a variety of different body plans. Their body is divided into head, trunk, and tail, although the divisions are not always externally visible. The body is often fusiform, a streamlined body plan often found in fast-moving fish. They may also be filiform (eel-shaped) or vermiform (worm-shaped). Also, fish are often either compressed (laterally thin) or depressed (dorso-ventrally flat).\nFile:Lingcodskeleton1600ppx.JPG\nSkeleton of a bony fish\nSee also: Fish bone\nThere are two different skeletal types: the exoskeleton, which is the stable outer shell of an organism, and the endoskeleton, which forms the support structure inside the body. The skeleton of the fish is either made of cartilage (cartilaginous fishes) or bones (bony fishes). The main features of the fish, the fins, are bony fin rays and, except the caudal fin, have no direct connection with the spine. They are supported only by the muscles. The ribs attach to the spine.\nBones are rigid organs that form part of the endoskeleton of vertebrates. They function to move, support, and protect the various organs of the body, produce red and white blood cells and store minerals. Bone tissue is a type of dense connective tissue. Because bones come in a variety of shapes and have a complex internal and external structure they are lightweight, yet strong and hard, in addition to fulfilling their many other functions.\nFish bones have been used to bioremediate lead from contaminated soil.[7][8]\nFile:Fischskelett-drawing.jpg\nSkeletal structure of a bass showing the vertebral column running from the head to the tail\nFile:Szkielet dorsza.jpg\nSkeletal structure of an Atlantic cod\nFile:Pristella maxillaris.jpg\nThe X-ray tetra (Pristella maxillaris) has a visible backbone. The spinal cord is housed within its backbone\nFish are vertebrates. All vertebrates are built along the basic chordate body plan: a stiff rod running through the length of the animal (vertebral column or notochord),[9] with a hollow tube of nervous tissue (the spinal cord) above it and the gastrointestinal tract below. In all vertebrates, the mouth is found at, or right below, the anterior end of the animal, while the anus opens to the exterior before the end of the body. The remaining part of the body continuing aft of the anus forms a tail with vertebrae and spinal cord, but no gut.[10]\nThe defining characteristic of a vertebrate is the vertebral column, in which the notochord (a stiff rod of uniform composition) found in all chordates has been replaced by a segmented series of stiffer elements (vertebrae) separated by mobile joints (intervertebral discs, derived embryonically and evolutionarily from the notochord). However, a few fish have secondarily lost this anatomy, retaining the notochord into adulthood, such as the sturgeon.[11]\nThe vertebral column consists of a centrum (the central body or spine of the vertebra), vertebral arches which protrude from the top and bottom of the centrum, and various processes which project from the centrum or arches. An arch extending from the top of the centrum is called a neural arch, while the hemal arch or chevron is found underneath the centrum in the caudal (tail) vertebrae of fish. The centrum of a fish is usually concave at each end (amphicoelous), which limits the motion of the fish. This can be contrasted with the centrum of a mammal, which is flat at each end (acoelous), shaped in a manner that can support and distribute compressive forces.\nThe vertebrae of lobe-finned fishes consist of three discrete bony elements. The vertebral arch surrounds the spinal cord, and is of broadly similar form to that found in most other vertebrates. Just beneath the arch lies a small plate-like pleurocentrum, which protects the upper surface of the notochord, and below that, a larger arch-shaped intercentrum to protect the lower border. Both of these structures are embedded within a single cylindrical mass of cartilage. A similar arrangement was found in primitive tetrapods, but, in the evolutionary line that led to reptiles (and hence, also to mammals and birds), the intercentrum became partially or wholly replaced by an enlarged pleurocentrum, which in turn became the bony vertebral body.[12]\nIn most ray-finned fishes, including all teleosts, these two structures are fused with, and embedded within, a solid piece of bone superficially resembling the vertebral body of mammals. In living amphibians, there is simply a cylindrical piece of bone below the vertebral arch, with no trace of the separate elements present in the early tetrapods.[12]\nIn cartilagenous fish, such as sharks, the vertebrae consist of two cartilagenous tubes. The upper tube is formed from the vertebral arches, but also includes additional cartilagenous structures filling in the gaps between the vertebrae, and so enclosing the spinal cord in an essentially continuous sheath. The lower tube surrounds the notochord, and has a complex structure, often including multiple layers of calcification.[12]\nLampreys have vertebral arches, but nothing resembling the vertebral bodies found in all higher vertebrates. Even the arches are discontinuous, consisting of separate pieces of arch-shaped cartilage around the spinal cord in most parts of the body, changing to long strips of cartilage above and below in the tail region. Hagfishes lack a true vertebral column, and are therefore not properly considered vertebrates, but a few tiny neural arches are present in the tail.[12][13] Hagfishes do, however, possess a cranium. For this reason, the vertebrate subphylum is sometimes referred to as \"Craniata\" when discussing morphology. Molecular analysis since 1992 has suggested that the hagfishes are most closely related to lampreys,[14] and so also are vertebrates in a monophyletic sense. Others consider them a sister group of vertebrates in the common taxon of Craniata.[15]\nFile:Seahose (Hippocampus) skull labeled.png\nSkull bones as they appear in a seahorse\nFile:PyskiRyb.svg\nPositions of fish mouths:\n(a) - terminal,\n(b) - superior,\n(c) - subterminal, inferior\nFile:BARBEL (PSF).png\nBarbels\nThe head or skull includes the skull roof (a set of bones covering the brain, eyes and nostrils), the snout (from the eye to the forward most point of the upper jaw), the operculum or gill cover (absent in sharks and jawless fish), and the cheek, which extends from the eye to preopercle. The operculum and preopercle may or may not have spines. In sharks and some primitive bony fish a spiracle, small extra gill opening, is found behind each eye.\nThe skull in fishes is formed from a series of only loosely connected bones. Jawless fish and sharks only possess a cartilaginous endocranium, with the upper and lower jaws being separate elements.Bony fishes have additional dermal bone, forming a more or less coherent skull roof in lungfish and holost fish. The lower jaw defines a chin.\nIn lampreys, the mouth is formed into an oral disk. In most jawed fish, however, there are three general configurations. The mouth may be on the forward end of the head (terminal), may be upturned (superior), or may be turned downwards or on the bottom of the fish (subterminal or inferior). The mouth may be modified into a suckermouth adapted for clinging onto objects in fast-moving water.\nThe simpler structure is found in jawless fish, in which the cranium is represented by a trough-like basket of cartilaginous elements only partially enclosing the brain, and associated with the capsules for the inner ears and the single nostril. Distinctively, these fish have no jaws.[16]\nCartilaginous fish, such as sharks, have also simple, and presumably primitive, skull structures. The cranium is a single structure forming a case around the brain, enclosing the lower surface and the sides, but always at least partially open at the top as a large fontanelle. The most anterior part of the cranium includes a forward plate of cartilage, the rostrum, and capsules to enclose the olfactory organs. Behind these are the orbits, and then an additional pair of capsules enclosing the structure of the inner ear. Finally, the skull tapers towards the rear, where the foramen magnum lies immediately above a single condyle, articulating with the first vertebra. There are, in addition, at various points throughout the cranium, smaller foramina for the cranial nerves. The jaws consist of separate hoops of cartilage, almost always distinct from the cranium proper.[16]\nIn the ray-finned fishes, there has also been considerable modification from the primitive pattern. The roof of the skull is generally well formed, and although the exact relationship of its bones to those of tetrapods is unclear, they are usually given similar names for convenience. Other elements of the skull, however, may be reduced; there is little cheek region behind the enlarged orbits, and little, if any bone in between them. The upper jaw is often formed largely from the premaxilla, with the maxilla itself located further back, and an additional bone, the symplectic, linking the jaw to the rest of the cranium.[12]\nAlthough the skulls of fossil lobe-finned fish resemble those of the early tetrapods, the same cannot be said of those of the living lungfishes. The skull roof is not fully formed, and consists of multiple, somewhat irregularly shaped bones with no direct relationship to those of tetrapods. The upper jaw is formed from the pterygoids and vomers alone, all of which bear teeth. Much of the skull is formed from cartilage, and its overall structure is reduced.[12]\nThe head may have several fleshy structures known as barbels, which may be very long and resemble whiskers. Many fish species also have a variety of protrusions or spines on the head. The nostrils or nares of almost all fishes do not connect to the oral cavity, but are pits of varying shape and depth.\nEsox luciusZZ.jpg\nSkull of a northern pike\nTiktaalik skull front.jpg\nSkull of Tiktaalik, a genus of extinct sarcopterygian (lobe-finned \"fish\") from the late Devonian period\nExternal organs\nFile:Pharyngeal jaws of moray eels.svg\nMoray eels have two sets of jaws: the oral jaws that capture prey and the pharyngeal jaws that advance into the mouth and move prey from the oral jaws to the esophagus for swallowing\nMain article: Fish jaw\nSee also: Shark tooth\nThe vertebrate jaw probably originally evolved in the Silurian period and appeared in the Placoderm fish which further diversified in the Devonian. Jaws are thought to derive from the pharyngeal arches that support the gills in fish. The two most anterior of these arches are thought to have become the jaw itself (see hyomandibula) and the hyoid arch, which braces the jaw against the braincase and increases mechanical efficiency. While there is no fossil evidence directly to support this theory, it makes sense in light of the numbers of pharyngeal arches that are visible in extant jawed (the Gnathostomes), which have seven arches, and primitive jawless vertebrates (the Agnatha), which have nine.\nFile:Great white shark at his back11.jpg\n16px Video of a slingjaw wrasse catching prey by protruding its jaw\n16px Video of a red bay snook catching prey by suction feeding\nIt is thought that the original selective advantage garnered by the jaw was not related to feeding, but to increased respiration efficiency. The jaws were used in the buccal pump (observable in modern fish and amphibians) that pumps water across the gills of fish or air into the lungs in the case of amphibians. Over evolutionary time the more familiar use of jaws (to humans), in feeding, was selected for and became a very important function in vertebrates.\nLinkage systems are widely distributed in animals. The most thorough overview of the different types of linkages in animals has been provided by M. Muller,[17] who also designed a new classification system, which is especially well suited for biological systems. Linkage mechanisms are especially frequent and manifold in the head of bony fishes, such as wrasses, which have evolved many specialized feeding mechanisms. Especially advanced are the linkage mechanisms of jaw protrusion. For suction feeding a system of linked four-bar linkages is responsible for the coordinated opening of the mouth and 3-D expansion of the buccal cavity. Other linkages are responsible for protrusion of the premaxilla.\nZenion hololepis is a small deep water fish with large eyes\nThe deep sea half-naked hatchetfish has eyes which look overhead where it can see the silhouettes of prey\nSee also: Vision in fish\nFish eyes are similar to terrestrial vertebrates like birds and mammals, but have a more spherical lens. Their retinas generally have both rod cells and cone cells (for scotopic and photopic vision), and most species have colour vision. Some fish can see ultraviolet and some can see polarized light. Amongst jawless fish, the lamprey has well-developed eyes, while the hagfish has only primitive eyespots.[18] The ancestors of modern hagfish, thought to be the protovertebrate[19] were evidently pushed to very deep, dark waters, where they were less vulnerable to sighted predators, and where it is advantageous to have a convex eye-spot, which gathers more light than a flat or concave one. Unlike humans, fish normally adjust focus by moving the lens closer to or further from the retina.[20]\nFile:Pstruh duhov\u00fd, \u017e\u00e1bry.jpg\nGill of a rainbow trout\nMain article: Fish gill\nSee also: Fish respiration\nThe gills, located under the operculum, are a respiratory organ for the extraction of oxygen from water and for the excretion of carbon dioxide. They are not usually visible, but can be seen in some species, such as the frilled shark. The labyrinth organ of Anabantoidei and Clariidae is used to allow the fish to extract oxygen from the air. Gill rakers are bony or cartilaginous, finger-like projections off the gill arch which function in filter-feeders to retain filtered prey.\nThe epidermis of fish consists entirely of live cells, with only minimal quantities of keratin in the cells of the superficial layer. It is generally permeable. The dermis of bony fish typically contains relatively little of the connective tissue found in tetrapods. Instead, in most species, it is largely replaced by solid, protective bony scales. Apart from some particularly large dermal bones that form parts of the skull, these scales are lost in tetrapods, although many reptiles do have scales of a different kind, as do pangolins. Cartilaginous fish have numerous tooth-like denticles embedded in their skin, in place of true scales.\nSweat glands and sebaceous glands are both unique to mammals, but other types of skin glands are found in fish. Fish typically have numerous individual mucus-secreting skin cells that aid in insulation and protection, but may also have poison glands, photophores, or cells that produce a more watery, serous fluid.[12] Melanin colours the skin of many species, but in fish the epidermis is often relatively colourless. Instead, the colour of the skin is largely due to chromatophores in the dermis, which, in addition to melanin, may contain guanine or carotenoid pigments. Many species, such as flounders, change the colour of their skin by adjusting the relative size of their chromatophores.[12]\nFile:Fish scales.jpg\nCycloid scales covering rohu\nThe outer body of many fish is covered with scales, which are part of the fish's integumentary system. The scales originate from the mesoderm (skin), and may be similar in structure to teeth. Some species are covered instead by scutes. Others have no outer covering on the skin. Most fish are covered in a protective layer of slime (mucus).\nThere are four principal types of fish scales.\nPlacoid scales, also called dermal denticles, are similar to teeth in that they are made of dentin covered by enamel. They are typical of sharks and rays.\nGanoid scales are flat, basal-looking scales that cover a fish body with little overlapping. They are typical of gar and bichirs.\nCycloid scales are small oval-shaped scales with growth rings. Bowfin and remora have cycloid scales.\nCtenoid scales are similar to the cycloid scales, with growth rings. They are distinguished by spines that cover one edge. Halibut have this type of scale.\nAnother, less common, type of scale is the scute, which is:\nan external shield-like bony plate, or\na modified, thickened scale that often is keeled or spiny, or\na projecting, modified (rough and strongly ridged) scale, usually associated with the lateral line, or on the caudal peduncle forming caudal keels, or along the ventral profile. Some fish, such as pineconefish, are completely or partially covered in scutes.\nFile:Atlantic cod.jpg\nThe lateral line is clearly visible as a line of receptors running along the side of this Atlantic cod\nThe lateral line is a sense organ used to detect movement and vibration in the surrounding water. For example, fish can use their lateral line system to follow the vortices produced by fleeing prey. In most species, it consists of a line of receptors running along each side of the fish.\nMain article: Photophores\nPhotophores are light-emitting organs which appears as luminous spots on some fishes. The light can be produced from compounds during the digestion of prey, from specialized mitochondrial cells in the organism called photocytes, or associated with symbiotic bacteria, and are used for attracting food or confusing predators.\nMain article: Fish fin\nFile:Haddock fins.tiff\nThe haddock, a type of cod, is ray-finned. It has three dorsal and two anal fins\nFile:PletwyRyb.svg\nTypes of caudal (tail) fin:\n(A) - Heterocercal, (B) - Protocercal,\n(C) - Homocercal, (D) - Diphycercal\nFile:Carcharhinus amblyrhynchos JNC1111 Tail.JPG\nSharks possess a heterocercal caudal fin. The dorsal portion is usually larger than the ventral portion\nFile:Thunnus obesus (Bigeye tuna) diagram cropped.GIF\nThe high performance bigeye tuna is equipped with a homocercal caudal fin and finlets and keels. Drawn by Dr Tony Ayling\nFins are the most distinctive features of fish. They are either composed of bony spines protruding from the body with skin covering them and joining them together, either in a webbed fashion as seen in most bony fish, or are similar to a flipper, as seen in sharks. Apart from the tail or caudal fin, fins have no direct connection with the spine and are supported by muscles only. Their principal function is to help the fish swim. Fins can also be used for gliding or crawling, as seen in the flying fish and frogfish. Fins located in different places on the fish serve different purposes, such as moving forward, turning, and keeping an upright position. For every fin, there are a number of fish species in which this particular fin has been lost during evolution.\nSpines and rays\nIn bony fish, most fins may have spines or rays. A fin may contain only spiny rays, only soft rays, or a combination of both. If both are present, the spiny rays are always anterior. Spines are generally stiff and sharp. Rays are generally soft, flexible, segmented, and may be branched. This segmentation of rays is the main difference that separates them from spines; spines may be flexible in certain species, but they will never be segmented.\nSpines have a variety of uses. In catfish, they are used as a form of defense; many catfish have the ability to lock their spines outwards. Triggerfish also use spines to lock themselves in crevices to prevent them being pulled out.\nLepidotrichia are bony, bilaterally-paired, segmented fin rays found in bony fishes. They develop around actinotrichia as part of the dermal exoskeleton. Lepidotrichia may have some cartilage or bone in them as well. They are actually segmented and appear as a series of disks stacked one on top of another. The genetic basis for the formation of the fin rays is thought to be genes coding for the proteins actinodin 1 and actinodin 2.[21]\nTypes of fin\nDorsal fins are located on the back. Most fishes have one dorsal fin, but some fishes have two or three . The dorsal fins serve to protect the fish against rolling, and assists in sudden turns and stops. In anglerfish, the anterior of the dorsal fin is modified into an illicium and esca, a biological equivalent to a fishing rod and lure. The bones that support the dorsal fin are called Pterygiophore. There are two to three of them: \"proximal\", \"middle\", and \"distal\". In spinous fins the distal is often fused to the middle, or not present at all.\nThe caudal fin is the tail fin, located at the end of the caudal peduncle and is used for propulsion. The caudal peduncle is the narrow part of the fish's body to which the caudal or tail fin is attached. The hypural joint is the joint between the caudal fin and the last of the vertebrae. The hypural is often fan-shaped. The tail is called:\nHeterocercal if the vertebrae extend into the upper lobe of the tail, making it longer (as in sharks)\nReversed heterocercal if the vertebrae extend into the lower lobe of the tail, making it longer (as in the Anaspida)\nProtocercal if the vertebrae extend to the tip of the tail and the tail is symmetrical but not expanded (as in amphioxus)\nDiphycercal if the vertebrae extend to the tip of the tail and the tail is symmetrical and expanded (as in the bichir, lungfish, lamprey and coelacanth. Most Palaeozoic fishes had a diphycercal heterocercal tail.[22])\nMost fish have a homocercal tail, where the fin appears superficially symmetric but the vertebrae extend for a very short distance into the upper lobe of the fin. This can be expressed in a variety of shapes. The tail fin can be:\nrounded at the end\ntruncated: or end in a more-or-less vertical edge, such as in salmon\nforked: or end in two prongs\nemarginate: or with a slight inward curve.\ncontinuous: with dorsal, caudal and anal fins attached, such as in eels\nThe anal fin is located on the ventral surface behind the anus. This fin is used to stabilize the fish while swimming.\nThe paired pectoral fins are located on each side, usually just behind the operculum, and are homologous to the forelimbs of tetrapods. A peculiar function of pectoral fins, highly developed in some fish, is the creation of the dynamic lifting force that assists some fish, such as sharks, in maintaining depth and also enables the \"flight\" for flying fish. In many fish, the pectoral fins aid in walking, especially in the lobe-like fins of some anglerfish and in the mudskipper. Certain rays of the pectoral fins may be adapted into finger-like projections, such as in sea robins and flying gurnards. The \"horns\" of manta rays and their relatives are called cephalic fins; this is actually a modification of the anterior portion of the pectoral fin.\nThe paired pelvic or ventral fins are located ventrally below the pectoral fins. They are homologous to the hindlimbs of tetrapods. The pelvic fin assists the fish in going up or down through the water, turning sharply, and stopping quickly. In gobies, the pelvic fins are often fused into a single sucker disk. This can be used to attach to objects.\nThe adipose fin is a soft, fleshy fin found on the back behind the dorsal fin and just forward of the caudal fin. It is absent in many fish families, but is found in Salmonidae, characins and catfishes. Its function has remained a mystery, and is frequently clipped off to mark hatchery-raised fish, though data from 2005 showed that trout with their adipose fin removed have an 8% higher tailbeat frequency.[23] Additional research published in 2011 has suggested that the fin may be vital for the detection of and response to stimuli such as touch, sound and changes in pressure. Canadian researchers identified a neural network in the fin, indicating that it likely has a sensory function, but are still not sure exactly what the consequences of removing it are.[24]\nSome types of fast-swimming fish have a horizontal caudal keel just forward of the tail fin. Much like the keel of a ship, this is a lateral ridge on the caudal peduncle, usually composed of scutes (see below), that provides stability and support to the caudal fin. There may be a single paired keel, one on each side, or two pairs above and below.\nFinlets are small fins, generally between the dorsal and the caudal fins also between the anal fin and the caudal fin (in bichirs, there are only finlets on the dorsal surface and no dorsal fin). In some fish such as tuna or sauries, they are rayless, non-retractable, and found between the last dorsal and/or anal fin and the caudal fin.\nFile:Oste082p labelled.png\nInternal organs of a male yellow perch\nA = gill, B = heart atrium,\nC: heart ventricle, D: liver (cut),\nE: stomach, F = pyloric caeca,\nG = swim bladder, H = intestine,\nI = testis, J = urinary bladder\nAs with other vertebrates, the intestines of fish consist of two segments, the small intestine and the large intestine. In most higher vertebrates, the small intestine is further divided into the duodenum and other parts. In fish, the divisions of the small intestine are not as clear, and the terms anterior intestine or proximal intestine may be used instead of duodenum.[25] In bony fish, the intestine is relatively short, typically around one and a half times the length of the fish's body. It commonly has a number of pyloric caeca, small pouch-like structures along its length that help to increase the overall surface area of the organ for digesting food. There is no ileocaecal valve in teleosts, with the boundary between the small intestine and the rectum being marked only by the end of the digestive epithelium.[12] There is no small intestine as such in non-teleost fish, such as sharks, sturgeons, and lungfish. Instead, the digestive part of the gut forms a spiral intestine, connecting the stomach to the rectum. In this type of gut, the intestine itself is relatively straight, but has a long fold running along the inner surface in a spiral fashion, sometimes for dozens of turns. This fold creates a valve-like structure that greatly increases both the surface area and the effective length of the intestine. The lining of the spiral intestine is similar to that of the small intestine in teleosts and non-mammalian tetrapods.[12] In lampreys, the spiral valve is extremely small, possibly because their diet requires little digestion. Hagfish have no spiral valve at all, with digestion occurring for almost the entire length of the intestine, which is not subdivided into different regions.[12]\nPyloric caeca\nThe pyloric caecum is a pouch, usually peritoneal, at the beginning of the large intestine. It receives faecal material from the ileum, and connects to the ascending colon of the large intestine. It is present in most amniotes, and also in lungfish.[12] Many fish in addition have a number of small outpocketings, also called pyloric caeca, along their intestine; despite the name they are not homologous with the caecum of amniotes, and their purpose is to increase the overall area of the digestive epithelium.[12]\nFile:Chiasmodon niger.jpg\nThe black swallower is a species of deep sea fish with an extensible stomach which allows it to swallow fish larger than itself\nFile:Torskens indre organer.jpg\nInternal organs of a female Atlantic cod\n1. Liver, 2. Gas bladder, 3. ovary,\n4. Pyloric caeca, 5. Stomach, 6. Intestine\nAs with other vertebrates, the relative positions of the esophageal and duodenal openings to the stomach remain relatively constant. As a result, the stomach always curves somewhat to the left before curving back to meet the pyloric sphincter. However, lampreys, hagfishes, chimaeras, lungfishes, and some teleost fish have no stomach at all, with the esophagus opening directly into the intestine. These fish consume diets that either require little storage of food, or no pre-digestion with gastric juices, or both.[12]\nThe kidneys of fish are typically narrow, elongated organs, occupying a significant portion of the trunk. They are similar to the mesonephros of higher vertebrates (reptiles, birds and mammals). The kidneys contain clusters of nephrons, serviced by collecting ducts which usually drain into a mesonephric duct. However, the situation is not always so simple. In cartilaginous fish there is also a shorter duct which drains the posterior (metanephric) parts of the kidney, and joins with the mesonephric duct at the bladder or cloaca. Indeed, in many cartilaginous fish, the anterior portion of the kidney may degenerate or cease to function altogether in the adult.[12] Hagfish and lamprey kidneys are unusually simple. They consist of a row of nephrons, each emptying directly into the mesonephric duct.[12]\nThe spleen is found in nearly all vertebrates. It is a non-vital organ, similar in structure to a large lymph node. It acts primarily as a blood filter, and plays important roles in regard to red blood cells and the immune system.[26] In cartilaginous and bony fish it consists primarily of red pulp and is normally a somewhat elongated organ as it actually lies inside the serosal lining of the intestine.[12] The only vertebrates lacking a spleen are the lampreys and hagfishes. Even in these animals, there is a diffuse layer of haematopoeitic tissue within the gut wall, which has a similar structure to red pulp, and is presumed to be homologous with the spleen of higher vertebrates.[12]\nThe liver is a large vital organ present in all fish. It has a wide range of functions, including detoxification, protein synthesis, and production of biochemicals necessary for digestion.\nFile:Two chamber heart.svg\nBlood flow through the heart: sinus venosus, atrium, ventricle, and outflow tract\nFile:Fish heart schematic.png\nCardiovascular cycle in a fish\nFish have what is often described as a two-chambered heart,[27] consisting of one atrium to receive blood and one ventricle to pump it,[28] in contrast to three chambers (two atria, one ventricle) of amphibian and most reptile hearts and four chambers (two atria, two ventricles) of mammal and bird hearts.[27] However, the fish heart has entry and exit compartments that may be called chambers, so it is also sometimes described as three-chambered[28] or four-chambered,[29] depending on what is counted as a chamber. The atrium and ventricle are sometimes considered \u201ctrue chambers\u201d, while the others are considered \u201caccessory chambers\u201d.[30]\nThe four compartments are arranged sequentially:\nSinus venosus, a thin-walled sac or reservoir with some cardiac muscle that collects deoxygenated blood through the incoming hepatic and cardinal veins.[28]\nAtrium, a thicker-walled, muscular chamber that sends blood to the ventricle.[28]\nVentricle, a thick-walled, muscular chamber that pumps the blood to the fourth part, the outflow tract.[28] The shape of the ventricle varies considerably, usually tubular in fish with elongated bodies, pyramidal with a triangular base in others, or sometimes sac-like in some marine fish.[29]\nThe outflow tract (OFT) to the ventral aorta, consisting of the tubular conus arteriosus, bulbus arteriosus, or both.[29] The conus arteriosus, typically found in more primitive species of fish, contracts to assist blood flow to the aorta, while the bulbus anteriosus does not.[30][31]\nOstial valves, consisting of flap-like connective tissues, prevent blood from flowing backward through the compartments.[29] The ostial valve between the sinus venosus and atrium is called the sino-atrial valve, which closes during ventricular contraction.[29] Between the atrium and ventricle is an ostial valve called the atrio-ventricular valve, and between the bulbus arteriosus and ventricle is an ostial valve called the bulbo-ventricular valve.[29] The conus arteriosus has a variable number of semilunar valves.[30]\nThe ventral aorta delivers blood to the gills where it is oxygenated and flows, through the dorsal aorta, into the rest of the body. (In tetrapods, the ventral aorta has divided in two; one half forms the ascending aorta, while the other forms the pulmonary artery).[12]\nThe circulatory systems of all vertebrates, are closed. Fish have the simplest circulatory system, consisting of only one circuit, with the blood being pumped through the capillaries of the gills and on to the capillaries of the body tissues. This is known as single cycle circulation.[32]\nIn the adult fish, the four compartments are not arranged in a straight row but, instead form an S-shape with the latter two compartments lying above the former two. This relatively simpler pattern is found in cartilaginous fish and in the ray-finned fish. In teleosts, the conus arteriosus is very small and can more accurately be described as part of the aorta rather than of the heart proper. The conus arteriosus is not present in any amniotes, presumably having been absorbed into the ventricles over the course of evolution. Similarly, while the sinus venosus is present as a vestigial structure in some reptiles and birds, it is otherwise absorbed into the right atrium and is no longer distinguishable.[12]\nFile:Swim bladder.jpg\nThe swim bladder of a rudd\nThe swim bladder (or gas bladder) is an internal organ that contributes to the ability of a fish to control its buoyancy, and thus to stay at the current water depth, ascend, or descend without having to waste energy in swimming. The bladder is found only in the bony fishes. In the more primitive groups like some minnows, bichirs and lungfish, the bladder is open to the esophagus and double as a lung. It is often absent in fast swimming fishes such as the tuna and mackerel families. The condition of a bladder open to the esophagus is called physostome, the closed condition physoclist. In the latter, the gas content of the bladder is controlled through a rete mirabilis, a network of blood vessels effecting gas exchange between the bladder and the blood.[33]\nFishes of the superorder Ostariophysi possess a structure called the Weberian apparatus, a modification which allow them to hear better. This ability which may well explain the marked success of otophysian fishes.[34] The apparatus is made up of a set of bones known as Weberian ossicles, a chain of small bones that connect the auditory system to the swim bladder of fishes.[35] The ossicles connect the gas bladder wall with Y-shaped lymph sinus that abuts the lymph-filled transverse canal joining the sacculi of the right and left ears. This allows the transmission of vibrations to the inner ear. A fully functioning Weberian apparatus consists of the swim bladder, the Weberian ossicles, a portion of the anterior vertebral column, and some muscles and ligaments.[35]\nFile:Fish-anatomy.svg\n7 = testicles or ovaries\nMain article: Fish reproduction\nSee also: Reproductive processes in fish\nFish reproductive organs include testes and ovaries. In most species, gonads are paired organs of similar size, which can be partially or totally fused.[36] There may also be a range of secondary organs that increase reproductive fitness. The genital papilla is a small, fleshy tube behind the anus in some fishes, from which the sperm or eggs are released; the sex of a fish often can be determined by the shape of its papilla.\nMost male fish have two testes of similar size. In the case of sharks, the testis on the right side is usually larger. The primitive jawless fish have only a single testis, located in the midline of the body, although even this forms from the fusion of paired structures in the embryo.[12]\nUnder a tough membranous shell, the tunica albuginea, the testis of some teleost fish, contains very fine coiled tubes called seminiferous tubules. The tubules are lined with a layer of cells (germ cells) that from puberty into old age, develop into sperm cells (also known as spermatozoa or male gametes). The developing sperm travel through the seminiferous tubules to the rete testis located in the mediastinum testis, to the efferent ducts, and then to the epididymis where newly created sperm cells mature (see spermatogenesis). The sperm move into the vas deferens, and are eventually expelled through the urethra and out of the urethral orifice through muscular contractions.\nHowever, most fish do not possess seminiferous tubules. Instead, the sperm are produced in spherical structures called sperm ampullae. These are seasonal structures, releasing their contents during the breeding season, and then being reabsorbed by the body. Before the next breeding season, new sperm ampullae begin to form and ripen. The ampullae are otherwise essentially identical to the seminiferous tubules in higher vertebrates, including the same range of cell types.[12]\nIn terms of spermatogonia distribution, the structure of teleosts testes has two types: in the most common, spermatogonia occur all along the seminiferous tubules, while in Atherinomorph fish they are confined to the distal portion of these structures. Fish can present cystic or semi-cystic spermatogenesis in relation to the release phase of germ cells in cysts to the seminiferous tubules lumen.[36]\nMany of the features found in ovaries are common to all vertebrates, including the presence of follicular cells and tunica albuginea There may be hundreds or even millions of fertile eggs present in the ovary of a fish at any given time. Fresh eggs may be developing from the germinal epithelium throughout life. Corpora lutea are found only in mammals, and in some elasmobranch fish; in other species, the remnants of the follicle are quickly resorbed by the ovary.[12] The ovary of teleosts is often contains a hollow, lymph-filled space which opens into the oviduct, and into which the eggs are shed.[12] Most normal female fish have two ovaries. In some elasmobranchs, only the right ovary develops fully. In the primitive jawless fish, and some teleosts, there is only one ovary, formed by the fusion of the paired organs in the embryo.[12]\nFish ovaries may be of three types: gymnovarian, secondary gymnovarian or cystovarian. In the first type, the oocytes are released directly into the coelomic cavity and then enter the ostium, then through the oviduct and are eliminated. Secondary gymnovarian ovaries shed ova into the coelom from which they go directly into the oviduct. In the third type, the oocytes are conveyed to the exterior through the oviduct.[37] Gymnovaries are the primitive condition found in lungfish, sturgeon, and bowfin. Cystovaries characterize most teleosts, where the ovary lumen has continuity with the oviduct.[36] Secondary gymnovaries are found in salmonids and a few other teleosts.\nFile:Fish brain.png\nDorsal view of the brain of the rainbow trout\nSee also: Brain \u00a7 Vertebrates\nFish typically have quite small brains relative to body size compared with other vertebrates, typically one-fifteenth the brain mass of a similarly sized bird or mammal.[38] However, some fish have relatively large brains, most notably mormyrids and sharks, which have brains about as massive relative to body weight as birds and marsupials.[39]\nFish brains are divided into several regions. At the front are the olfactory lobes, a pair of structures that receive and process signals from the nostrils via the two olfactory nerves.[38] The olfactory lobes are very large in fish that hunt primarily by smell, such as hagfish, sharks, and catfish. Behind the olfactory lobes is the two-lobed telencephalon, the structural equivalent to the cerebrum in higher vertebrates. In fish the telencephalon is concerned mostly with olfaction.[38] Together these structures form the forebrain.\nThe forebrain is connected to the midbrain via the diencephalon (in the diagram, this structure is below the optic lobes and consequently not visible). The diencephalon performs functions associated with hormones and homeostasis.[38] The pineal body lies just above the diencephalon. This structure detects light, maintains circadian rhythms, and controls color changes.[38] The midbrain or mesencephalon contains the two optic lobes. These are very large in species that hunt by sight, such as rainbow trout and cichlids.[38]\nThe hindbrain or metencephalon is particularly involved in swimming and balance.[38] The cerebellum is a single-lobed structure that is typically the biggest part of the brain.[38] Hagfish and lampreys have relatively small cerebellae, while the mormyrid cerebellum is massive and apparently involved in their electrical sense.[38]\nThe brain stem or myelencephalon is the brain's posterior.[38] As well as controlling some muscles and body organs, in bony fish at least, the brain stem governs respiration and osmoregulation.[38]\nVertebrates are the only chordate group to exhibit a proper brain. A slight swelling of the anterior end of the dorsal nerve cord is found in the lancelet, though it lacks the eyes and other complex sense organs comparable to those of vertebrates. Other chordates do not show any trends towards cephalisation.[10] The central nervous system is based on a hollow nerve tube running along the length of the animal, from which the peripheral nervous system branches out to innervate the various systems. The front end of the nerve tube is expanded by a thickening of the walls and expansion of the central canal of spinal cord into three primary brain vesicles: The prosencephalon (forebrain), mesencephalon (midbrain) and rhombencephalon (hindbrain), further differentiated in the various vertebrate groups.[40] Two laterally placed eyes form around outgrows from the midbrain, except in hagfish, though this may be a secondary loss.[41][42] The forebrain is well developed and subdivided in most tetrapods, while the midbrain dominate in many fish and some salamanders. Vesicles of the forebrain are usually paired, giving rise to hemispheres like the cerebral hemispheres in mammals.[40] The resulting anatomy of the central nervous system, with a single, hollow ventral nerve cord topped by a series of (often paired) vesicles is unique to vertebrates.[10]\nFile:Porbeagle shark brain.png\nCross-section of the brain of a porbeagle shark, with the cerebellum highlighted\nThe circuits in the cerebellum are similar across all classes of vertebrates, including fish, reptiles, birds, and mammals.[43] There is also an analogous brain structure in cephalopods with well-developed brains, such as octopuses.[44] This has been taken as evidence that the cerebellum performs functions important to all animal species with a brain.\nThere is considerable variation in the size and shape of the cerebellum in different vertebrate species. In amphibians, lampreys, and hagfish, the cerebellum is little developed; in the latter two groups, it is barely distinguishable from the brain-stem. Although the spinocerebellum is present in these groups, the primary structures are small paired nuclei corresponding to the vestibulocerebellum.[12]\nThe cerebellum of cartilaginous and bony fishes is extraordinarily large and complex. In at least one important respect, it differs in internal structure from the mammalian cerebellum: The fish cerebellum does not contain discrete deep cerebellar nuclei. Instead, the primary targets of Purkinje cells are a distinct type of cell distributed across the cerebellar cortex, a type not seen in mammals. In mormyrid fish (a family of weakly electrosensitive freshwater fish), the cerebellum is considerably larger than the rest of the brain put together. The largest part of it is a special structure called the valvula, which has an unusually regular architecture and receives much of its input from the electrosensory system.[45]\nMost species of fish and amphibians possess a lateral line system that senses pressure waves in water. One of the brain areas that receives primary input from the lateral line organ, the medial octavolateral nucleus, has a cerebellum-like structure, with granule cells and parallel fibers. In electrosensitive fish, the input from the electrosensory system goes to the dorsal octavolateral nucleus, which also has a cerebellum-like structure. In ray-finned fishes (by far the largest group), the optic tectum has a layer \u2014 the marginal layer \u2014 that is cerebellum-like.[43]\nIdentified neurons\nA neuron is called identified if it has properties that distinguish it from every other neuron in the same animal\u2014properties such as location, neurotransmitter, gene expression pattern, and connectivity\u2014and if every individual organism belonging to the same species has one and only one neuron with the same set of properties.[46] In vertebrate nervous systems very few neurons are \"identified\" in this sense\u2014in humans, there are believed to be none\u2014but in simpler nervous systems, some or all neurons may be thus unique.[47]\nIn vertebrates, the best known identified neurons are the gigantic Mauthner cells of fish.[48] Every fish has two Mauthner cells, located in the bottom part of the brainstem, one on the left side and one on the right. Each Mauthner cell has an axon that crosses over, innervating neurons at the same brain level and then travelling down through the spinal cord, making numerous connections as it goes. The synapses generated by a Mauthner cell are so powerful that a single action potential gives rise to a major behavioral response: within milliseconds the fish curves its body into a C-shape, then straightens, thereby propelling itself rapidly forward. Functionally this is a fast escape response, triggered most easily by a strong sound wave or pressure wave impinging on the lateral line organ of the fish. Mauthner cells are not the only identified neurons in fish\u2014there are about 20 more types, including pairs of \"Mauthner cell analogs\" in each spinal segmental nucleus. Although a Mauthner cell is capable of bringing about an escape response all by itself, in the context of ordinary behavior other types of cells usually contribute to shaping the amplitude and direction of the response.\nMauthner cells have been described as command neurons. A command neuron is a special type of identified neuron, defined as a neuron that is capable of driving a specific behavior all by itself.[49] Such neurons appear most commonly in the fast escape systems of various species\u2014the squid giant axon and squid giant synapse, used for pioneering experiments in neurophysiology because of their enormous size, both participate in the fast escape circuit of the squid. The concept of a command neuron has, however, become controversial, because of studies showing that some neurons that initially appeared to fit the description were really only capable of evoking a response in a limited set of circumstances.[50]\nSee also: Fish diseases and parasites\nImmune organs vary by type of fish.[51] In the jawless fish (lampreys and hagfish), true lymphoid organs are absent. These fish rely on regions of lymphoid tissue within other organs to produce immune cells. For example, erythrocytes, macrophages and plasma cells are produced in the anterior kidney (or pronephros) and some areas of the gut (where granulocytes mature.) They resemble primitive bone marrow in hagfish. Cartilaginous fish (sharks and rays) have a more advanced immune system. They have three specialized organs that are unique to chondrichthyes; the epigonal organs (lymphoid tissue similar to mammalian bone) that surround the gonads, the Leydig's organ within the walls of their esophagus, and a spiral valve in their intestine. These organs house typical immune cells (granulocytes, lymphocytes and plasma cells). They also possess an identifiable thymus and a well-developed spleen (their most important immune organ) where various lymphocytes, plasma cells and macrophages develop and are stored. Chondrostean fish (sturgeons, paddlefish and bichirs) possess a major site for the production of granulocytes within a mass that is associated with the meninges (membranes surrounding the central nervous system.) Their heart is frequently covered with tissue that contains lymphocytes, reticular cells and a small number of macrophages. The chondrostean kidney is an important hemopoietic organ; where erythrocytes, granulocytes, lymphocytes and macrophages develop.\nLike chondrostean fish, the major immune tissues of bony fish (or teleostei) include the kidney (especially the anterior kidney), which houses many different immune cells.[52] In addition, teleost fish possess a thymus, spleen and scattered immune areas within mucosal tissues (e.g. in the skin, gills, gut and gonads). Much like the mammalian immune system, teleost erythrocytes, neutrophils and granulocytes are believed to reside in the spleen whereas lymphocytes are the major cell type found in the thymus.[53][54] In 2006, a lymphatic system similar to that in mammals was described in one species of teleost fish, the zebrafish. Although not confirmed as yet, this system presumably will be where naive (unstimulated) T cells accumulate while waiting to encounter an antigen.[55]\n32x28px Fish portal\nPanderichthys digits\n^ Prosser, C.

        "title": "Electoral College Blues - and Reds - Research Access",
        "raw_content": "Every polling statistic I\u2019ve seen about the 2012 US presidential election\u2014whether emphasizing national popular opinion, demographic trends, or likely results in individual states\u2014tells me the final vote will be very close. All three of these polling categories, along with strategic responses to all three by both campaigns, are of critical importance, especially if this election is truly up for grabs.\nSadly, most people in a position to spend money and allocate resources and personnel, whether in the GOP or Democratic camps, are interested almost solely in the state-by-state statistics.\nThey suffer from Hayes-Tilden Syndrome, which is not a rare heart ailment, but simply a belief that Electoral College mathematics is more important than communicating the core beliefs and objectives of a candidate to the nation. (The syndrome name refers to the US election of 1876, in which Rutherford B. Hayes was elected President by the Electoral College, despite losing the popular vote to Samuel Tilden.)\nThere is a time for presidential campaigns to fixate in the extreme on key states; it\u2019s called the \u201cprimary season.\u201d Thereafter, if the party nominees fail to brand and market themselves nationally\u2014and instead devise serpentine whistle-stop tours of supposed \u201cswing\u201d states\u2014they have fallen victim to Hayes-Tilden Syndrome.\nTo help me define the pitfalls of Hayes-Tilden Syndrome, I must, for the second time in as many weeks, quote from the Cook Political Report\u2014which leaves me only one point ahead of Sarah Palin in the \u201cMagazines I Read\u201d race.\nIn June, political forecaster Charlie Cook wrote, \u201cIt is a source of constant amusement to me that so many people obsess\u2014as if fiddling with a Rubik\u2019s Cube\u2014over the various combinations of states that could get either President Obama or Mitt Romney to the magic number of 270 votes in the Electoral College . . . . The simple fact is that our nation has had 56 presidential elections. In 53 of them (94.6 percent), the winner in the Electoral College also happened to be the one with the most popular votes.\u201d\nI think Cook is actually being generous in his math. He counts the 2000 George Bush/Al Gore election as a failure of the Electoral College to mirror the popular vote. In truth, it was the US Supreme Court that vacated a lower court ruling to extend a deadline for recounting the Florida vote\u00ad\u00ad\u2014essentially rendering any change in Florida\u2019s Electoral College vote impossible. I chalk that election up to one decided by the Supreme Court, just as clearly as all historians credit the 1824 presidential election of John Quincy Adams to the US House of Representatives.\nIf you like my math, you acknowledge that 54 of 56 presidential elections have been decided by popular vote\u2014yet you probably don\u2019t bristle when you see the red state/blue state charts displayed on every television network to define the progress of the presidential race, and to shape your perception of it. You should bristle.\nThe fact is that neither campaign has mounted a defining national media campaign in 2012.\nNo one would contest that President Obama\u2019s \u201cChange\u201d campaign in 2008 was both national and captivating. It is memorable enough that it is now frequently parodied at YouTube, partisan Web sites, and by comedians featured in national media\u2014which essentially proves its 2008 popularity.\nI believe the neglect of national and constituent-targeted campaigns, in favor of \u201cswing state\u201d media overkill, is a serious mistake.\nWhy? For now, let\u2019s just look at one very important factor. The revolution in social media has taken place almost entirely since the 2008 presidential elections. The rise of social media has made the US a much smaller and well-connected nation\u2014just as it has helped to enable successful revolutionary movements around the world since 2008.\nWhether we look at the national electorate or the traditional constituent groups of either major political party, we find voters undecided and waiting for candidates to speak to them. On an optimistic note, the true inner circles of both Romney and Obama know this.\nOn a less cheery note, the leaders of super PACs and massive member-driven nonprofits that will spend copiously in this election cycle are generally amateurs at political action. From media reports, they are fashioning strategies guided almost entirely by Hayes-Tilden Syndrome, deploying staff to, and spending the most money in, Electoral College swing states. Their influence and efforts could make a greater difference elsewhere.\nTake a simple example. Democrat Peter Hart and Republican Bill McInturff recently released a poll showing Obama with a 3-percentage-point lead over Romney. Nevertheless, a Gallup poll suggests that while Obama\u2019s African-American constituency is very strong, and likely to vote, his support among Hispanics is marginal\u2014despite his recent Executive Order on immigration.\nIn a world of sober-minded campaigning, this is a clear opening for grassroots organizations such as labor unions to mount a national \u201cvoter education\u201d and get-out-the-vote campaign aimed at Hispanic voters. Instead, like other amateurs with fat wallets, they appear to be ignoring demographics and focusing on \u201cswing states\u201d\u2014in a wired nation. Does it not occur to them that in a country utterly transformed by social media, any and all neglect of Hispanic voters in \u201csafe\u201d states like Illinois will quickly be communicated to Hispanic voters in swing states, red states, and other blue states?\nLikewise, if GOP Tea Party operatives and super PACs spend their time and money numbing the ears of voters in Florida and along the north Mississippi River, they will squander a great deal. Romney currently has greater negative ratings than Obama\u2014without having served four years as President. Do the GOP and its backers truly see no need to create a national identity for, and movement behind, their problematical candidate?\nA constitutional amendment to replace the Electoral College with a new system was nearly put before voters by Congress in 1969. More recently, Gallup polls conducted in 2001 and 2004 indicated that a majority of Americans favor doing away with the Electoral College. To me, many of the arguments for replacing the College seem wise.\nNevertheless, I think what\u2019s far more important to remember is that any presidential campaign that ignores the importance of the national popular vote, and favors a strategy with Electoral College probable outcomes as its centerpiece, is not only defying common sense but also making a 1-in-28 gamble on success.\nWhy not speak to America instead?\nResearch TV : Interview with Tim \u2018O Conner \u2013 Ashworth College\ns e says:\nThe current state-by-state winner-take-all method of awarding electoral votes (not mentioned in the U.S. Constitution, but since enacted by 48 states), ensures that the candidates, after the primaries, will not reach out to about 76% of the states and their voters. Candidates have no reason to poll, visit, advertise, organize, campaign, or care about the voter concerns in the dozens of states where they are safely ahead or hopelessly behind.\nPresidential candidates concentrate their attention on only a handful of closely divided \u201cbattleground\u201d states and their voters. There is no incentive for them to bother to care about the majority of states where they are hopelessly behind or safely ahead to win. 9 of the original 13 states are considered \u201cfly-over\u201d now. In the 2012 election, pundits and campaign operatives agree, that, at most, only 12 states and their voters will matter. They will decide the election. None of the 10 most rural states will matter, as usual. About 76% of the country will be ignored \u2013including 19 of the 22 lowest population and medium-small states, and 17 medium and big states like CA, GA, NY, and TX. This will be more obscene than the 2008 campaign, when candidates concentrated over 2/3rds of their campaign events and ad money in just 6 states, and 98% in just 15 states (CO, FL, IN, IA, MI, MN, MO, NV, NH, NM, NC, OH, PA, VA, and WI). Over half (57%) of the events were in just 4 states (OH, FL, PA, and VA). In 2004, candidates concentrated over 2/3rds of their money and campaign visits in 5 states; over 80% in 9 states; and over 99% of their money in 16 states.\nMore than 2/3rds of the states and people have been merely spectators to presidential elections. They have no influence. That\u2019s more than 85 million voters, 200 million Americans, ignored. When and where voters are ignored, then so are the issues they care about most.\nThe number and population of battleground states is shrinking as the U.S. population grows.\nThe National Popular Vote bill would guarantee the Presidency to the\ncandidate who receives the most popular votes in all 50 states (and DC), without needing to amend the Constitution.\nEvery vote, everywhere, would be politically relevant and equal in presidential elections. No more distorting and divisive red and blue state maps. There would no longer be a handful of \u2018battleground\u2019 states where voters and policies are more important than those of the voters in more than 3/4ths of the states that now are just \u2018spectators\u2019 and ignored after the primaries.\nWhen the bill is enacted by states possessing a majority of the electoral votes\u2013 enough electoral votes to elect a President (270 of 538), all the electoral votes from the enacting states would be awarded to the presidential candidate who receives the most popular votes in all 50 states and DC.\nHistorically, virtually all of the major changes in the method of electing the\nPresident, including ending the requirement that only men who owned substantial property could vote and 48 current state-by-state winner-take-all laws, have come about by state legislative action.\nIn Gallup polls since 1944, only about 20% of the public has supported the current system of awarding all of a state\u2019s electoral votes to the presidential candidate who receives the most votes in each separate state (with about 70% opposed and about 10% undecided). Support for a national popular vote\nis strong among Republicans, Democrats, and Independent voters, as well as\nevery demographic group in virtually every state surveyed in recent polls in\nclosely divided Battleground states: CO \u2013 68%, FL \u2013 78%, IA 75%, MI \u2013 73%, MO \u2013 70%, NH \u2013 69%, NV \u2013 72%, NM\u2013 76%, NC \u2013 74%, OH \u2013 70%, PA \u2013 78%, VA \u2013 74%, and WI \u2013 71%; in Small states (3 to 5 electoral votes): AK \u2013 70%, DC \u2013 76%, DE \u2013 75%, ID \u2013 77%, ME \u2013 77%, MT \u2013 72%, NE 74%, NH \u2013 69%, NV \u2013 72%, NM \u2013 76%, OK \u2013 81%, RI \u2013 74%, SD \u2013 71%, UT \u2013 70%, VT \u2013 75%, WV \u2013 81%, and WY \u2013 69%; in Southern and Border states: AR \u2013 80%,, KY- 80%, MS \u2013 77%, MO \u2013 70%, NC \u2013 74%, OK \u2013 81%, SC \u2013 71%, TN \u2013 83%, VA \u2013 74%, and WV \u2013 81%; and in other states polled: AZ \u2013 67%, CA \u2013 70%, CT \u2013 74%, MA \u2013 73%, MN \u2013 75%, NY \u2013 79%, OR \u2013 76%, and WA \u2013 77%. Americans believe that the candidate who receives the most votes should win.\nThe bill has passed 31 state legislative chambers in 21 states. The bill has been enacted by 9 jurisdictions possessing 132 electoral votes \u2013 49% of the\n270 necessary to go into effect.\nFollow National Popular Vote on Facebook via NationalPopularVoteInc",

Since the proclammation of R2P in 2001 and its adoption in by one hundred and fifty states in 2005, civil society organizations have paid increasing attention to R2P. Several civil society organizations, such as the Global Centre for Responsibility to Protect and the International Coalition for Responsibility to Protect, have formed with a mandate specifically focused on R2P. These organizations, which are a collaborative enterprise between numerous CSOs, have significantly increased the level of CSO engagement with R2P. These developments, in conjunction with the proclamation of UN Resolution 1973 authorizing a no-fly zone over Libya on March 17th, 2011, have intensified interest in R2P amongst civil society groups in recent years.\nFurther sections include:\nPeace and Security Organizations\nService-Based Humanitarian Organizations\nICRtoP Organizations",

Here you go:\nA dad joke generator turned up to 11, the prop-swinging, pun-slinging UK comedian Tim Vine takes the Parkinson route in this entertaining but unchallenging show, in which interviews with audience members become the inspiration for more quick-witted quips drawn from his encyclopaedic memory.\nAdrienne Truscott's Asking for It: A One-Lady Rape About Comedy Starring Her Pussy and Little Else!\nFallacies about consent and startling lessons concerning the birds and the bees \u2013 or more specifically, ducks and gerbils \u2013 are provocatively and intelligently explored in this debut stand-up show from US cabaret artist and acrobat Adrienne Truscott.\nGeraldine Quinn's MDMA: Modern Day Maiden Aunt\nComedian and cabaret artist Geraldine Quinn is unmarried, approaching 40, and fond of a drink. Instead of children she has 19 nieces and nephews, whom she adores, despite their tendency to over-share on social media. In the beautifully pitched Modern Day Maiden Aunt, a bittersweet blend of self-deprecation, family dysfunction and sardonic wit set to music, Quinn does some over-sharing of her own, to hilarious effect.\nLaura Davis - Pillow of Strength\nA significant gulf sometimes separates \u2018love\u2019 from \u2018like\u2019, a distance which Laura Davis attempts to bridge in her latest stand-up show. Originally from Perth, where she won the Best WA Comedy award at Fringeworld last year, Davis is now based in Melbourne; thankfully her material steers clear of banal comparisons between the two cities in favour of exploring wounds both physical and psychological.\nDamien Power - Keit\nFrom a gun-happy father-in-law and his own dad's peculiar anger management issues, to a relationship with a \"crazy\" Estonian woman which culminates in his son's birth, Queenslander Damien Power's new show has a distinctly domestic focus.\nStella Young - Tales from the Crip\nJournalist and disability activist Stella Young opens her show with a clever inversion of existing power structures in order to give \u2018normal\u2019 audience members a taste of what it\u2019s like to be constantly belittled.\nFelicity Ward - The Iceberg\nAs well as being one of our best comedians, Ward is also a proficient actor, a skill she makes memorable use of in The Iceberg. This tightly written show is aptly named: what we see is an engaging performance; the hard work beneath the surface, the carefully connected structure of routines and callbacks, is cleverly concealed.\nBen Pobjie - Trigger Warning\nFew comedy shows begin with a recorded voiceover warning about being ''gently stroked by the fingers of a fat man'', but Ben Pobjie isn't your typical comedian.\nSuns of Fred - Excited!\nClive Palmer\u2019s weight; Ian Thorpe\u2019s sexuality \u2013 the targets of Suns of Fred\u2019s jokes are neither original nor inspired. This slick but soulless musical act have well synchronised moves, melodious voices, confidence and chemistry; all that\u2019s lacking is material to match the quality of their performance skills.\nPosted by richardwatts at 10:18 am 5 comments: Links to this post\nDoing the Beats: Kerouac, sexuality and On the Road\nThe long-awaited film adaptation of Jack Kerouac\u2019s ground-breaking novel presents the perfect opportunity to re-examine the lives of the Beat Generation, writes Richard Watts.\nIt\u2019s not hyperbole to say that the Beat Generation \u2013 a small coterie of writers who met up in New York City in the spring of 1944 \u2013 changed the world.\nWithout their individual quests for personal freedoms \u2013 a quest for sex and drugs before there was rock and roll; a quest which spawned the western world\u2019s first counter-culture, the beatniks \u2013 the hippy movement of the Sixties would never have happened, and punk would have been a quiet snarl rather than a global reaction.\nOf all the Beat Generation writers, Jack Kerouac, author of the autobiographical beatnik bible, On the Road, is unequivocally the most famous. Born in Lowell, Massachusetts in 1922, to working class French-Canadian parents, Kerouac aspired to be a writer from a young age, though he was also a keen football player. Indeed, it was a football scholarship to Columbia University which initially drew him to New York, where he first met the young poet and visionary Allen Ginsberg, heroin addict and aspiring author William S. Burroughs, and most importantly, the charismatic, sexually rapacious car thief Neal Cassady, who would become his muse.\nInspired by Cassady\u2019s companionship, Kerouac hammered out the first draft of his most famous book on a single, long scroll of paper between April 2 \u2013 22, 1951; a novel he\u2019d been working on in one form or another since at least 1948.\nWhen it finally saw publication in 1957, On the Road had undergone significant changes from Kerouac\u2019s free-flowing initial manuscript: some passages were rewritten or entirely excised, and his characters were renamed (Kerouac himself became Sal Paradise, Cassady became Dean Moriarty, Ginsberg became Carlo Marx, and Burroughs become Old Bull Lee). Most significantly, descriptions of sexual acts deemed obscene by 1950s standards were watered down or deleted entirely, such as an early passage describing the fledgling relationship between Ginsberg and Cassady:\n\u2018Allen was queer in those days, experimenting with himself to the hilt, and Neal saw that, and a former boyhood hustler himself in the Denver night, and wanting dearly to learn how to write poetry like Allen, the first thing you know he was attacking Allen with a great amorous soul such as only a conman can have. I was in the same room, I heard them across the darkness and I mused and said to myself \u201cHmm, now something\u2019s started, but I don\u2019t want anything to do with it.\u201d So I didn\u2019t see them for two weeks during which time they cemented their relationship to mad proportions.\u2019\nBrazilian director Walter Salles\u2019 long-awaited screen adaptation of On the Road reinstates much that was later excised from the novel.\n\u2018I was immediately struck by the urgency and immediacy of [the original scroll],\u2019 Salles says in the film\u2019s production notes:\n\u2018The first sentence already heralded a different type of narrative. The version published in 1957 began: \u201cI met Dean not long after my wife and I split up.\u201d The scroll begins differently, \u201cI first met Neal not long after my father died.\u201d The hero of the scroll has just suffered a loss that compels him to go forward. The search for a father is a vital theme in the scroll, even more so than in the version published in 1957. This is a theme that has always interested me, and it became one of the motors driving the adaptation.\u2019\nThe young Neal Cassady in his 1944 mug shot.\nAs well as returning to the novel\u2019s original heartbreak, Salles\u2019 film also reinstates much of the sex that was excised from the published version of On the Road. We never see Marx/Ginsberg and Moriarty/Cassady actually fucking, but the film leaves us in no doubt that the pair were definitely lovers for a time.\nThe question of Kerouac\u2019s own relationship with Cassady is much more ambiguous, and is alluded to beautifully in Salles\u2019 film in a number of scenes, such as an early encounter between the two where Moriarty virtually seduces Paradise while begging him to teach him how to write.\nAs another early member of the Beat circle, Lucien Carr said, \u2018Every person who came along was someone for Kerouac to love\u2019. Clearly Kerouac was smitten by Cassady, making him the hero of another book, Visions of Cody, as well as On the Road. But were the two men ever lovers in real life, or was their relationship simply a particularly intense friendship \u2013 what today we might call a bromance?\nCertainly Kerouac was no stranger to the occasional same-sex encounter, according to Allen Ginsberg in a 1972 interview in the magazine Gay Sunshine:\n\u2018I came out of the closet in Columbia in 1946. The first person I told about it was Kerouac, cause I was in love with him \u2026 And actually we wound up sleeping together maybe within a year, a couple of times. I blew him, I guess. He once blew me, years later. It was sort of sweet, peaceful.\u2019\nCassady himself was frank about his sexuality, as his letter to Ginsberg dated April 10, 1947, makes plain:\n\u2018I\u2019m on a spree tonight, I\u2019ll tell you exactly what I want, giving no thought to you, or any respect or consideration to your feelings \u2026I can\u2019t promise a damn thing, I know I\u2019m bisexual, but prefer women, there\u2019s a slimmer line than you think between my attitude towards love and yours, don\u2019t be so concerned, it\u2019ll fall into line. Beyond that \u2013 who knows? Let\u2019s try it and see, huh?\u2019\nBut for Kerouac \u2013 poor, Catholic-guilt laden Kerouac \u2013 his same-sex attraction was a matter of personal shame.\n\u2018As a homophobic homoerotic, he denied enjoying sex with men, but continued to have it,\u2019 Kerouac\u2019s editor turned biographer Ellis Amburn wrote in Subterranean Kerouac: The Hidden Life of Jack Kerouac. \u2018The cost of living so dishonestly was ever-increasing amounts of alcohol and drugs.\u2019\nIn a short scene late in Salles\u2019 film, Sal Paradise spies on Dean Moriarty screwing a businessman (played by Steve Buscemi) who they\u2019ve just met on the road. It was a purely financial transaction, Moriarty explains afterwards to a sulking Paradise; a brief return to his hustling days driven entirely by economic need. Paradise doesn\u2019t reply; clearly his sensibilities are offended by what he\u2019s just witnessed \u2013 or is he, perhaps, jealous?\nSeen through modern eyes, Kerouac\u2019s hero worship of Cassady seems suspiciously close to sublimated desire for the younger man; a desire that resulted in one of the most significant books of the 20th century.\nWe may never know if Kerouac and Cassady were ever lovers in the physical sense of the word, but the facts of their passionate friendship are undeniable.\nInspired by his love for Cassady, Kerouac created what US academic Joshua Kupetz calls \u2018a new American prose form\u2019; a literature that abandoned the traditional narrative structure of the European novel; a book which changed lives.\nAs a monument to Jack and Neal\u2019s friendship, that\u2019s one hell of a legacy.\nWalter Salles\u2019 On the Road opens nationally on Thursday 27 September.\nThis article originally published on the Gay News Network on Tues 25 Sept 2012.\nPosted by richardwatts at 12:24 pm 3 comments: Links to this post\nHello blogger my old friend...\nNope, I'm not dead.

        "title": "Reflections on \u2018Drowned in a Stream of Prescriptions\u2019 \u2013 Robert Berezin, M.D.",
        "raw_content": "I applaud the New York Times for publishing Drowned in a Stream of Prescriptions, by Alan Schwarz, on the front page of the Sunday Times, Feb. 2, 2013.\nIt is a painful and horrifying story. There can be no consolation for his poor parents. The article is very well written and captures the insensitivity, uncaring and destructiveness of my fellow psychiatrists in a straightforward and understated manner that is effectively and appropriately chilling.\nSadly, the story of Richard Fee is not unique. Amphetamine abuse is commonplace and standard practice in our schools and on our streets. And amphetamine psychosis should not be minimized because it doesn\u2019t happen with every user. In point of fact during my residency in the 1970\u2019s, mental hospitals were filled with amphetamine psychoses. Why? Because the sixties and seventies were an earlier period of prevalent amphetamine use (like today). Those psychoses were particularly frightening and violent and especially intractable because of the fierce drug dependence. I\u2019ve seen Richard Fee before, many times.\nThis article itself even honors the idea that there are legitimate uses for amphetamines. Amphetamines are now such a part of acceptable psychiatric practice, that it actually seems extremist to suggest that they are not only inappropriate, but destructive. We\u2019re talking about speed here. Speed has always been a bad drug. \u2018Speed kills\u2019. Contemporary psychiatry has fallen under the sway of biological psychiatry, where patients no longer receive proper care. It views the cause of human suffering to be the brain itself, and not the person. And the prescribed treatments for its phantom brain diseases are psychoactive drugs. The cure for human struggle has been reduced to a pill, as if pharmaceuticals address the agency of human suffering. This has resulted in a destructive psychiatric drug epidemic, with psychiatric drug sales topping $70 billion a year.\nRichard Fee\u2019s story should be a morality tale for our times. It is the tip of an iceberg about something that is very wrong. Amphetamines have a sorry history. It\u2019s claim to fame was its first serious use by the Nazi\u2019s for the Blitzkrieg and the bombing of Britain. Amphetamines were big in the seventies and eighties, when they were passed off as an antidepressant, as a diet drug, and of course college kids used them to stay up all night to study etc. They were principally used to get high with devastating results and devasting dependence. Eventually, amphetamines were discredited, and they seemed to disappear from view. But as often happens with drugs, amnesia set in. Psychiatry invented a phantom disease ADHD, and guess what was its treatment of choice? You guessed it. Amphetamines are back. We are drugging a generation of our children with amphetamines. And now that its being promoted that adults have phantom ADHD too. There\u2019s a whole new market for amphetamines. We\u2019re being told that adults should be taking speed too.\nHere\u2019s the list of amphetamines:\namphetamine (Adderall);\natomoxetine (Strattera );\ndextroamphetamine (Dexedrine and Dextrostat);\nlaevoamphetamine (Benzedrine),\nmethamphetamine (Desoxyn, Methedrin), street names: crystal, meth, ice, speed, glass, chalk, crank; and methylenedioxymethamphetamine \u2013 street names Ecstasy, MDMA, E, or X.\nThere are going to be many more Richard Fees. There already are. In a society that is so conscious of the dangers of drugs. How is that we are promoting the use of speed, and it\u2019s being seen as a really good thing?\nRobert A Berezin, MD\nTags: ADHD, amphetamines, Big Pharma\nThank you for site full reply, this was my nephew , but next time it could your son or daughter, grandchild or friend.\nI am so sorry for your loss. The death of your nephew is unspeakably awful. I feel for you entire family.\nI was so saddened after reading about Richard Fee. I couldn\u2019t help but wonder if Richard Fee was also showing symptoms of a bi polar disorder. Could that have been masked by the addiction?\nYou certainly raise a legitimate question. However, we can never know. It is not really possible to diagnose at a distance. In fact there is far too much of that takes place in the media by \u2018experts\u2019 these days, and I do not wish to participate in that practice. I am deeply aware that I have no real knowledge about somebody that I read about. From my experience with patients, I am often struck by the dissonance between somebody\u2019s public image and the real story behind the story that nobody knows about. This certainly keeps me humble when tempted to diagnose from afar. What I\u2019ve come to know is that I don\u2019t know about somebody I haven\u2019t seen. Obviously there are certain things a psychiatrist may notice that could raise a red flag. However, I didn\u2019t pick up anything about Richard Fee that suggested anything but an amphetamine psychosis. It\u2019s also important that clinically when I\u2019ve evaluated patients who are psychotic and substance abusing, it\u2019s impossible to tell what is causing what. Is there an underlying psychosis or is it just drug or alcohol related? To evaluate an underlying psychosis, one has to be substance free for a considerable period of time. I\u2019ve been surprised a number of times when I suspected an underlying psychotic process, and this turned out to be wrong. Likewise, I\u2019ve also seen patients diagnosed with a drug-induced psychosis, and it turned out to be a schizophrenic process that was triggered by a drug.\nI want to raise one other point that may sound like semantics. I do not use the term \u2013\u2018bi-polar\u2019. I reserve \u2018bi-polar\u2019 to refer to batteries that have a (+)pole and a (-) pole. This term seems to characterize a person as a thing and not a human being. I use the classical \u2018manic-depressive\u2019, because that is an accurate description of this major and debilitating process. Mania is a very real psychosis that is very serious and always results in repeated hospitalizations. And furthermore, I am very concerned that far too many people have been incorrectly diagnosed as so-called bi-polar. A lot of people have fluctuating moods in their psychiatric symptomatology. This is a fairly common symptom among people of a particular temperament. It does not mean they are manic-depressive. Real manic-depression is not something to be taken lightly.\nSo I take Richard Fee\u2019s story as it was told. And the moral of the story is that he was \u2018Drowned in a Stream of Prescriptions\u2019.\nIntroduction The Fallacy of Antidepressants and the Placebo Effect",

        "raw_content": "Consider this claim:\n\"Until John Maynard Keynes published The General Theory of Employment, Interest, and Money in 1936, economics - at least in the English-speaking world - was completely dominated by free-market orthodoxy. Heresies would occasionally pop up, but they were always suppressed. Classical economics, wrote Keynes in 1936, 'conquered England as completely as the Holy Inquisition conquered Spain.' And classical economics said that the answer to almost all problems was to let the forces of supply and demand do their job.\" -- Paul Krugman\nA lot of historians of economics have been discussing this claim, under a thread titled \"QUERY - All pre-1936 economists were laissez-faire advocates\".\nI want to consider why Krugman understates the impact of the General Theory, if you read this as a statement about policy. In Britain, some economists certainly opposed both the building of Keynesian institutions and fiscal countercyclical policy, as later promoted, for example, by Abba Lerner. As such opponents, I cite Hayek and Robbins at the London School of Economics and the \"Treasury view\". I also think that many economists were arguing for something like Keynesian policy.\nBut I think these \"Keynesian\" advocates were not basing themselves on a theory strongly integrated with the central neoclassical (Marshallian?) price theory. For example, American Institutionalists of the time could be accused of advocating \"measurement without theory\", as Koopmans later put it. And those, such as some Keynes' British colleagues, looking into business cycle theory or monetary theory could be accused of ad-hoc short term theory.\nA Post Keynesian perspective is that Keynes was addressing this lack of theoretical support for pragmatic policy more than the lack of reasonable policy itself. He says so himself in the second sentence of the preface:\n\"But [this book's] main purpose is to deal with difficult questions of theory, and only in the second place with the applications of this theory to practice.\" - John Maynard Keynes, The General Theory of Employment, Interest, and Money, p. v\nI find this perspective lacking in the HES discussion so far. (I do not want to argue, in this place, against any argument that, for example, (early) Joan Robinson is a source of what she later labeled \"bastard Keynesianism.\")",

        "raw_content": "- A decision has been made that the Board will meet the fourth Saturday of the month at 8:00 am, in the Starbucks by Eastlake High School.\n- Don had emailed some suggestions to the ACC regarding their Spring Letter. He has not heard back from them so he will follow up on that.\n- Yogesh had talked to one of our residents about joining the Board. He will invite her to our next meeting.\n- Michael reported that he knew a company that would forward incoming calls to the Board member on duty each month. This service would be free and it would also allow the Board to make the monthly duty change, thus relieving Brett of that chore. Michael will contact the company to update our system, which will also include calls to the ACC and the social committee. He will also let Brett know of the change.\n- Yogesh reported that a homeowner had suggested that the playthings in the park be updated to reflect the fact that the neighborhood children are growing up. She will provide him with pictures of what she has in mind.\n- Yogesh gave a financial report; at this point the budget looks good. There are only three homeowners who are more than $1,000 behind in dues. Don volunteered to discuss the matter with each one.\n- Before the watering of the common areas begins the remaining unaudited sprinklers will be audited so that we will have a further savings to our water bill.\n- One of the homeowners was interested in having a community garden in the unfinished area south of the park on 242nd. After a discussion it was decided that since it was a change to the common area it would take a 2/3 vote of the homeowners per Section 3, Article VI of the CC&Rs which would be difficult to do.",

Diablo, and of course, pumpkins for sale - just in time for Halloween.\n\"The Fairfield-Suisun, Cordelia and Twilight Rotary clubs are very excited to become part of this successful annual event,\" said Cordelia Rotary President Bill James. \"We hope to build upon a very successful Halloween tradition in Solano County.\"\nAdmission is $12 for adults, $11 for seniors (65 and up), and $9 for children (2 -14). Prices include admission to the Museum, unlimited train rides, use of the Museum's spacious and shaded picnic grounds, and free parking. Reservations are not accepted. All proceeds benefit the Western Railway Museum (a nonprofit educational institution) and the Fairfield area Rotary clubs, which provide thousands of dollars to community and youth activities each year.\nThe Western Railway Museum is located on State Highway 12 in Solano County, 12 miles East of Interstate 80, and halfway between Fairfield and Rio Vista.

        "raw_content": "Corruption \u00b7 Law & Order\nCriminal Referral \u2018Effectively Reported\u2019 To Department Of Justice Regarding Trump By Office of Government Ethics\nIn the wake of the release of Trump\u2019s long-awaited financial report, the Office of Government Ethics has effectively reported Trump to the Department of Justice for possible criminal charges.\nThe New York Times reported today that:\nTrump\u2019s financial disclosure, released on Wednesday, revealed for the first time that he paid more than $100,000 to his personal attorney, Michael D. Cohen, as reimbursement for payment to a third-party.\nThe disclosure, released by the Office of Government Ethics, did not specify the purpose of the payment. However, Mr. Cohen has paid $130,000 to an adult film actress, Stephanie Clifford, who has claimed she had an affair with Mr. Trump.\nMr. Cohen has said he made the payment to keep the actress, who goes by the stage name Stormy Daniels, from going public before the 2016 election with her story about an affair with Mr. Trump.\nA footnote in the disclosure said that Mr. Cohen had requested reimbursement of the expenses incurred in 2016 and Mr. Trump had repaid it in full in 2017. It did not give an exact amount of the payment but said it was between $100,001 and $250,000.\nReporting on that disclosure, CNBC reported that:\nThe federal Office of Government Ethics, in a letter to the Justice Department released Wednesday, said that \u201cthe payment by Mr. Cohen\u201d to a third-party by law should have been revealed in Trump\u2019s financial disclosure filing last year.\nHowever, the payment was not revealed in that filing. The OGE\u2019s acting director on Wednesday gave the Justice Department both this year\u2019s report and last year\u2019s report \u201cbecause you may find the disclosure relevant to any inquiry you may be pursuing.\u201d\nCBS News elaborated on the response by the Office of Government Ethics, reporting:\nThe head of the Office of Government Ethics (OGE) flagged that discrepancy to deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein in case it is \u201crelevant to any inquiry you may be pursuing.\u201d\n\u201cIn the interest of transparency, while not required to be disclosed as \u2018reportable liabilities\u2019 on Part 8, in 2016 expenses were incurred by one of Donald J. Trump\u2019s attorneys, Michael Cohen. Mr. Cohen sought reimbursement of those expenses and Mr. Trump fully reimbursed Mr. Cohen in 2017. The category of the value would be $100,001 \u2013 $250,000 and the interest rate would be zero,\u201d a footnote in the president\u2019s financial disclosure form reads.\nA note in the document says \u201cOGE has concluded that the information related to the payment made by Mr. Cohen is required to be reported and that the information provided meets the disclosure requirement for a reportable liability.\u201d This means that the ethics office deemed that the payment to Cohen, made in 2016, should have been reported last year.\nDavid Apol, the acting director of the Office of Government Ethics, sent a letter to Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein Wednesday, saying that, \u201cbased on the information provided as a note \u2026 the payment made by Mr. Cohen is required to be reported as a liability.\u201d Apol wrote to Rosenstein and provided him with those financial disclosure reports, \u201cbecause you may find the disclosure relevant to any inquiry you may be pursuing regarding the president\u2019s prior report.\u201d\nNEW: Ethics office sending letter to Rod Rosenstein stating that Michael Cohen's payment on behalf of Trump was a debt and may be relevant to \"any inquiry\" Rosenstein may be pursuing. pic.twitter.com/e22Jfuozic\n\u2014 Ari Melber (@AriMelber) May 16, 2018\nWalter Shaub, the former director of the OGE, stated on Twitter that the acting director\u2019s letter to the Department of Justice is \u201ctantamount to a criminal referral.\u201d\n\u201cThis is tantamount to a criminal referral. OGE has effectively reported the president to DOJ for potentially committing a crime. Dave Apol comes through in the end!!\u201d he tweeted.\nThis is tantamount to a criminal referral.

The wearer of the object will then be able to control any and all individuals who consider themselves \u201cbrethren\u201d, until a point in time where the wearer reveals that everything they have been told is a lie; this revelation will cause the \u201cbrethren \u201c to become confused until the wearer\u2019s true intentions are revealed. At this time, it is unknown if affected persons are also considered susceptible to any orders, requests and/or commands of those considered allies of SCP-XXXX's wearer.\nSCP-XXXX also has the ability to make anyone under the influence of its wearer believe anything they are told, even if the statement is a complete impossibility. Such instances include females believing that they are actually males, single men being told that they have a wife and children, and mathematical paradoxes (2 + 2 = 5) sounding completely plausible. Unless the wearer of SCP-XXXX admits that the \"fact\" is, in fact, a lie, those under the influence of SCP-XXXX will continue to believe it as truth. Furthermore, lies that involve impossible/improbable events (i.e., Elvis Presley performing a concert), will result in the affected individuals experiencing vivid audiovisual phenomena similar to hallucinations, with the addition of tactile sensation and tasting/smelling things that aren't really there.\nIf SCP-XXXX is removed from the head of its usual wearer and placed upon the head of anyone who professes faith in a particular religion (especially if the individual is carrying a religious icon, in particular one made using iron), the object will begin to inflict significant burn damage to the individual\u2019s heart, brain and other vital organs unless they are willing to denounce their prior faith. Those who refuse the offer will often die due to critical organ failure. Attempting to contain SCP-XXXX within a box or other container made of iron will result in a violent (possibly chemical) reaction that will cause the container to explode, leaving SCP-XXXX intact.\nSCP-XXXX was recovered from an abandoned warehouse in the city of \u2588\u2588\u2588 \u2588\u2588\u2588\u2588\u2588\u2588, formerly used by a group known as the Order of Belphegor. Recovered documents and footage indicate that the wearer of the object was the \u201cHigh Prophet of Belphegor\u201d, the central authority figure of the group. The footage, recovered from CCTV cameras installed in the building at the recommendation of Agent Publius Enigma a month prior to the Order\u2019s occupation of the building, depict the High Prophet using the object to torture members of the \u201ccongregation\u201d who refused to denounce their faith. Evidence also suggests that the object was used by the High Prophet as a means to control the \u201cChosen\u201d during their gatherings, as evidenced by their voluntary donations of money, potential SCPs and even family members and friends.",

        "raw_content": "Quality, Moderation, Professional Judgment, and Self-Regulation\nWhen teachers use work samples with students to help them understand quality, they are inviting them to engage in a kind of social moderation process \u2013 a guided experience of analyzing student work. During this process, teachers guide students to understand the key attributes of quality in the work samples. [See Chapter 4 in Making Classroom Assessment Work (Davies, 2011) for a detailed description for teachers or Chapter 4 in Leading the Way to Assessment for Learning: A Practical Guide (Davies, Herbst & Parrott Reynolds, 2012) for leaders].\nOver time this process helps students develop the language of assessment so they can self-monitor, self-assess, and engage in peer assessment. As students continue to engage in social moderation as part of the classroom assessment and instructional cycle, they learn to articulate what they\u2019ve learned and share proof of learning with others \u2013 for example, through parent-student-teacher conferences.\nThis kind of classroom assessment and instruction is incredibly powerful. It deliberately teaches students how to self-monitor \u2013 to self-regulate \u2013 which, over time, leads to the development of powerful executive functioning skills. It is also a way to deliberately teach 21stcentury skills of analysis, synthesis, and critical thinking, to name a few.\nInvolving students in a social moderation process is more and more common as teachers come to understand the role of moderation in their own learning. For example, a teacher of 5- and 6-year-old children has a series of samples of writing and drawing from early development up to examples that are beyond where the most able writer in the class is currently working.\nIn small groups students gather to compare their day\u2019s writing to the samples and talk about what they are currently doing that is similar to the sample and what is different. During this conversation of embedded instruction \u201cnext steps\u201d ideas for subsequent work become clear. In this photograph you can see Erin M. doing this work with some of her 5- and 6-year-old students.\nHistorically, moderation was a process used in large-scale assessment. There are different ways of going about the moderation process but, in general, it involves looking at student work with others, co-constructing criteria, developing a scoring guide, and selecting samples to illustrate quality. And then working to score student work and checking with others to ensure similar findings \u2013 a process of checking for inter-rater reliability.\nBeing involved in a process of social moderation has been shown to result in adults \u201clearning to produce valid and reliable judgments that are consistent with one another and with stated achievement standards.\u201d (Adie, Klenowski & Wyatt-Smith, 2012). It is also part of what caused the Assessment Reform Group in a publication titled, The role of teachers in the assessment of learning (2006), to say that teachers' professional judgement is more reliable and valid than external tests when they are engaged in looking at student work, co-constructing criteria, creating a scoring guide, scoring the work, and checking for inter-rater reliability. Teachers, even with students as young as 5 and 6 years of age are experiencing the same kinds of results with a classroom version of social moderation (Davies, 2012).\nAs part of my pre-reading for the International Symposium in April 2014, I\u2019ve been enjoying articles by Linda Allal(2013) (written about in an earlier post) and by Lenore Adie (2013) and her colleagues, Val Klenowski and Claire Wyatt-Smith (2012). I\u2019ve also revisited work by Graham Maxwell who will be in Fredericton, NB, in April 2014, as well as by a former International Symposium (2001) member, Royce Sadler, and a more recent article also focused on moderation.\nThese researchers are focused on what happens in the process of moderation and when systems deliberately engage teachers in learning about quality and gaining \u2018informed professional judgment\u2019 through the process of moderation. If this area is of interest to you, I encourage you to read their research and writing. Here is a selection of readings to get you started. And, of course, if you check the reference lists, you will find the \u201cshoulders upon which they stand.\u201d\nAdie, Lenore E., Klenowski, Valentina & Wyatt-Smith, Claire. (2012).

I have often heard teachers say that they \u201cpush through a lot of the curriculum\u201d in these three months. It is no different for educators. While we are celebrating the \u201c100th day\u201d or beginning the new semester or writing another set of report cards or administering the provincial examinations, we are also attending several teacher conferences, workshops, conventions, or exploring many other professional learning opportunities.\nSince the beginning of 2014, I have been in over a dozen classrooms doing demonstration lessons in BC, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, and Hawai\u2019i. They have included lessons in grade 11 algebra, grade 6 social responsibility, grade 10 social studies, grade 11 Canadian history, grade 3/4 science, and grade 7 mathematics. Though I have worked in education for over twenty years, I still find it difficult to make my teaching public in front of students and teachers whom I have only just met. It takes time to both prepare the lesson and harness the emotion in order to step out in front of adult and student learners with whom I am beginning to build rapport\u2026a far cry from the trust that is built in schools with each passing day.\nHowever, once the instruction begins and the learning becomes visible, I often find myself in that place that Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi calls flow - a state of concentration or complete absorption with the activity at hand and the situation. Additionally, the teachers who are observing are not in the role of evaluator. Rather, they are tasked to collect evidence in areas that I have identified in our pre-observation conversation. That is, as the person being observed, I provided specific direction in regard to what the observers are asked to gather. There are no expectations for analysis, judgment, or the assignment of value to my words and actions.\nIn the past several months, I have asked the observers (usually between twelve and twenty in number) to pay attention to these three areas:\nInstructional cycle \u2013 What stages of an instructional sequence can you document?\nTeacher engagement \u2013 What do you notice that provides evidence of teacher engagement with the students and with the instruction?\nStudent engagement \u2013 What do you notice about the students and what they are doing and saying?\nPlease note that this stance is critical as we welcome one another into our classrooms to watch us at work with our learners. This stance also sends an incredibly strong message - this process of observation is about the teacher, for the teacher, and directed by the teacher.\nAs we leave the classroom, I let the students know what we, as adults, are now going to do. I tell them that the teachers are not going to tell me that the lesson was \u201cgood\u201d or that it was \u201cOK\u201d or that it could have been better. At best, I might feel great because of the first response, neutral because of the second, or a bit upset by the third. Once the moment of emotion passes, I will be left with only questions. Why did they think it was \u201cgood?\u201d What could I have done differently to make it better? Often the students nod, seemingly in solidarity with the idea that I deserve more.\nWe retreat in order to engage with the evidence that has been collected. Teacher observers talk about what they noticed; in essence, they lay the data in front of me and I interpret that information through the lens of the decisions that I made during the instruction. I make my thinking visible based on the evidence that they collected. So, for example, if someone indicates that he noticed that I did not share an entire sample with students, but rather \u201cchunked\u201d the sample into smaller parts, I might talk about why I did that and what I expected the students to do after each chunk. Or another teacher might talk about the sentence stem (I noticed that the work\u2026) that I had the students use in order to offer feedback against the criteria that we had just constructed. In that instance, I might talk about the stem as a way to build the vocabulary of assessment, rather than the language of evaluation. Below, is a picture of what I wrote down on a whiteboard during a recent debriefing in order to more clearly explain what I was thinking about during the instruction. This becomes an artifact of not only the debriefing phase, but of my learning, as well.\nDuring the debriefing, I am again \u201cin the driver\u2019s seat.\u201d The role of the observer is not to offer a hypothesis, nor to put forward an opinion; this is a learning opportunity for me to look into my teaching through the evidence that is being presented.\nAs I talk with many, many teachers, the pervading sentiment is that it can be extremely uncomfortable for others, or even a single other, to come into their classrooms and observe the instruction and the learning. This feeling is prevalent even in schools where high levels of trust are reported. Individual teachers have spoken of the fear of being evaluated and judged.\nThough I am not suggesting that it is simple to shift that mindset, what this account reminds me of is that too often we observe with our own agenda at the forefront. The observation serves as a vehicle to respond to our own questions. Rather, the invitation to come into classrooms, when coupled with the stance that we are there to serve the one who is being observed, might begin to allow colleagues to view this process differently. As the observer, I am here to attend to your needs and to help you to respond to the things that you are wondering about. This can shift our perspective on what it means to have others observe our teaching and can provide a framework so that we can learn and reflect more.\nBut... Thou Shall NOT\u2026 Use Formative Assessments...\n... as Part of the Summative Grade\nA few weeks ago I was working with a group of secondary teachers on ideas connected to our latest book, A Fresh Look at Grading and Reporting in High Schools. At one point there was a murmur in the group. When I inquired about the murmur some of the teachers said, \u201cBut, we were told, 'Thou shall NOT use formative assessments as part of the summative grade.\u2019\u201d\nThe notion of evidence of learning \u2013 and what makes good evidence \u2013 is key when it comes to summative assessment. After all, everything a student does, says, or creates is potentially evidence of learning. What counts? It is all about purpose. Are you considering the evidence of learning in a formative way \u2013 to inform instruction? Or, are you considering the evidence of learning to determine how well and how much a student has learned? It is about purpose.\nThe evidence \u2013 observations, conversations, and products \u2013 that is used to determine the summative grade depends on the teacher. It is a professional decision. In A Fresh Look at Grading and Reporting in High Schools, Sandra Herbst and I write about the entire grading process but in this post I want to focus on one aspect of that decision-making process.\nShould evidence of learning be excluded simply because it has been used to inform instruction during the learning? That is, should formative assessment information only be used for formative purposes? And, should summative assessment information be used only for summative purposes? Or, as the secondary teachers put it, \u201cWe understood that we were not to use formative assessments as part of the summative grade.\u201d\nInformation is information. And, what we do with information depends on purpose. The Assessment Reform Group (one member, Gordon Stobart, is one of our International delegates) in a 2009 document titled, \"Fit for Purpose\u201d put it this way, \u201cIt should be noted that assessments can often be used for both formative and summative purposes. \u201cFormative\u201d and \u201csummative\u201d are not labels for different types or forms of assessment but describe how assessments are used.\u201d (2009, 9)\nOne of the pre-reading documents by Ministry of New Zealand, submitted by the New Zealand team members for the International Symposium, puts it this way, \u201cSometimes assessment is referred to as being either \u201cformative\u201d or \u201csummative.\u201d The formative use of assessment information is an important part of everyday practice. It is a diagnostic process concerned with identifying achievement and progress and strengths and weaknesses in order to decide what action is needed to improve learning on a day-by-day basis. The summative use of assessment is concerned with \u201csumming up\u201d achievement at a specific point of time. However, these summations can be used not only to ascertain the level of achievement at a specific point of time but also to look back and consider what progress has been made over a period of time compared with expected progress.\u201d (Ministry of Education, 2011, 14)\nIn summary, one needs to consider all the evidence of learning \u2013 the student\u2019s entire learning journey \u2013 in order to better understand what and how much has been learned. When teachers make a summative assessment of a student\u2019s learning, we engage in making an \u201cinformed professional judgment.\u201d And, to do so, we use all the information available to determine how well students have learned what they needed to learn, can do, what they need to be able to do, and can articulate what they need to articulate in relation to the standards or outcomes for the course or subject area.\nStatements such as, \u201cThou shall not use formative assessment as part of the summative grade\u201d are not helpful when \u2018informed professional judgment\u2019 is at work.\nMansell, W., James, M. & the Assessment Reform Group (2009) Assessment in schools.

        "raw_content": "Forums > 'Saving to Suitors' Club > Religious History in America > The Born Gay Hoax\nView Full Version : The Born Gay Hoax\nThe Born \u201cGay\u201d Hoax\nBy 1985, the pro-sodomy movement The born \u201cgay\u201d hoax was invented in 1985 by Marshall Kirk and Dr. Hunter Madsen. Marshall Kirk graduated magna cum laude from Harvard University in 1980 majoring in psychology and went on to become a writer and researcher in neuropsychiatry. Dr. Hunter Madsen earned a PhD in politics from Harvard University in 1985, then went on to become an expert on public persuasion tactics, social marketing, and has designed commercial marketing on Madison Avenue. He has also served as a consultant to pro-sodomy media campaigns across America.\nIn 1985, Marshall Kirk and Hunter Madsen co-authored an article entitled The Gay Agenda in a pro-sodomy magazine called Christopher Street. In short, the article emphasized the strategic importance of shifting the central issue in the debate over \u201chomosexuality\u201d away from sodomy and toward a sexual pseudo-identity called \u201cgay.\u201d The goal of The Gay Agenda was to force opponents of sodomy into a position where they would be seen as attacking the civil rights of so-called \u201cgay\u201d citizens, rather than opposing a specific antisocial behavior. The Gay Agenda also briefly outlined the strategy that would eventually be used to convince the public that individuals are born \u201cgay.\u201d\nInitially, there was no enthusiasm for The Gay Agenda within the pro-sodomy movement. In fact, many activists considered the proposed strategy degrading because they viewed \u201crights related to sexuality as analogous to the constitutional rights to association, expression, or religion.\u201d[1] Initially, there were strong reservations in against adopting the strategy. However, these initial reservations would not last for long.\nIn 1986 the pro-sodomy movement lost Bowers v. Hardwick (http://www.oyez.org/cases/1980-1989/1985/1985_85_140); the United States Supreme Court case which upheld the rights of individual states to criminalize sodomy. The loss was devastating. Desperate, angry, and galvanized pro-sodomy activists learned that if they could make a compelling case that they were born \u201cgay,\u201d they could become eligible for \u201cMinority Status\u201d as a \u201cSuspect Class\u201d under the 1964 Civil Rights Act. If Minority Status were granted, it would force the courts to overturn Bowers v. Hardwick, thus legalizing sodomy. It must be noted however, that the Civil Rights Act recognizes Minority Status only for those groups who:\n1) Have suffered a long history of discrimination\n2) Are powerless to help themselves as a community\n3) Are born that way\n(Source/More (http://www.freewebs.com/theborngayhoax/theborngayhoax.htm))\nThis is in the Religious History forum because the \"Deviate Sexual Fetish Promotion Movement\" called \"the Gay Movement\" or the \"Homosexual Agenda\" is a religious movement in disguise.",

        "raw_content": "A friend gave me this to read:\nEvery single person I've talked to who read this book ended up being able to quit very easily. I blasted through the first 6 chapters but then put it aside. Why? Because by the time you finish the book, you will be a non-smoker. You are supposed to smoke while you are reading the book -- that's the key. And as I was going through the chapters, every time I had a smoke I thought, \"What the heck am I doing this for?\" The book explains smoking in a way that makes you not want to do it. The part that really gripped me was how smoking was described as \"suffocating yourself\" and it really is! Every time you inhale, you aren't getting pure air and you ARE suffocating. I don't know why that simple truth never occurred to me.\nSo back to the reason I've set the book aside: I KNOW it's going to work. So I'm foolishly doing what many others have done which is to delay finishing the book because they don't feel ready to quit! But this dilemma is covered in the upcoming chapters. I've just got to pick it back up and read it. Which I will. After one more pack.\nThank-you for the book. I will suggest this book in a discreet way, saying someone told me about a book, which is true.\nI quit smoking a long time ago with toothpicks, it is still hard. The car windows would get brown from smoking, discussing.\nI wish you good luck, when you are ready to quit smoking, if I could quit smoking, anyone can.\nhttp://www.princeton.edu/uhs/healthy-living/hot-topics/drugs-and-smoking/#caffeine\nDrugs and Smoking\nWhat are the short-term and long-term effects of caffeine?\nCaffeine takes about an hour to affect you (less on an empty stomach), and usually lasts 4-6 hours. Because caffeine is a stimulant, most people experience increased alertness, blood pressure, and breathing rate. These effects are mostly due to caffeine increasing your metabolic rate (though it has not been linked to weight loss). The drug is a diuretic, causing increased urination which can lead to dehydration. Caffeine makes many people feel jittery, \u201con edge,\u201d and unable to sleep. Long-term use can lead to nervousness, insomnia, dehydration, stomach irritation, and fatigue.\nThis is my 3rd full day without a cigarette. I am using the patch which to me is not much use. I had a scare with a spot on my lung and it scared me so bad that everytime I want one I think about what I have just gone through. The word \"cancer\" will absolutely stop your life in it's track.\nHere's hoping I can keep this up. They did a pet scan and it came back negative for any cancer anywhere. My spot will have to be checked periodically from here on out but that is a small price to pay for what I have put my lungs through all my life.\nTake it from me, QUIT now before it is too late!\nQuote from: Blue Moon on November 22, 2012, 11:07:40 AM\nTry when you get a strong urge also chewing on maybe 1/4 piece of nicotine gum. That got me through some of the really rough spots.\nCONGRATULATIONS...you are past the very worst stage at 3 days. YOU CAN DO IT!\nI have an electronic cigarette--they are recommending that now also. Not the same as a cigarette but it helps me to \"imagine\" I am smoking. I am finding it a little easier with each passing day. As I said, all I have to do is remember those scan and tests that I have had the last week and 1/2 and I seem to be able to fight off the urge really good. I am cooking dinner today, son and hubby is at his sister's house, and my son told me before he left NOT to touch a cig, I told him I have gone this far so hopefully I can fight it off and keep it up. Nothing like a scare to wake you up.\nYou know what is bad right now? Tonight for some reason all I want after eating a great meal, washing all the dishes and putting away the leftovers---I WANT A CIGARETTE SO BAD!\nI told my hubby I am so consumed right now thinking about it. First time in over 3 days that I have had this craving. But so far I have fought it off. Guess I will have to find something else to do right now to keep me busy. I refuse to give in. I prayed that if He would make me be o.k. that I would give cigs up and I meant it. I just didn't realize how hard that promise was going to be to keep.\nQuote from: Blue Moon on November 22, 2012, 09:18:44 PM\nThinking of you Blue Moon. I wish my Mom would have quit when the docs found her first spot. She kept smoking and died a year and a half later. Prayers for the cravings to cease.\nThose are the times I would add the GUM. It really does help and you never know when you are going to get those really strong urges. Just 1/4 piece of the gum will take the edge off.\nI will have to get some and try it. Last night I dreamed I smoked a cigarette. It tasted so good. We went out of town this morning and just got home. My hubby asked me if I thought I was going to make it. I told him I just keep telling myself this will pass and so far it has. I am even getting more energy and not coughing hardly anymore. I have this printed out and keeping it in front of me:\nIf you quit smoking right now, at 09:51 AM (EST) on November 24, 2012, here is\nwhat will begin to happen immediately:\n10:11 AM (in 20 minutes): Your heart rate drops.\n9:51 PM (in 12 hours): The carbon monoxide (a gas that can be toxic) in your blood drops to\nDec. 8, 2012 - Feb. 24, 2013 (in 2 weeks to 3 months): Your heart attack risk begins to\ndrop and your lungs are working better.\nDec. 24, 2012 - Aug. 24, 2013 (in 1 to 9 months): Your coughing and shortness of breath\ndecrease and your lungs start to function better, lowering your risk of lung infection.\nNov. 24, 2013 (in 1 year): Your risk for heart disease is half that of a smoker's.\nNov. 24, 2017 (in five years): Your risk of having a stroke is the same as someone who\ndoesn't smoke.\nNov. 24, 2022 (in 10 years): Your risk of dying from lung cancer is half that of a smoker's.\nYour risk of cancer of the mouth, throat, esophagus, bladder, kidney, and pancreas also\nNov. 24, 2027 (in 15 years): Your risk of heart disease is now the same as someone who\nBlueMoon - I was shocked at how quickly I stopped coughing! Keep up the good work, you can do it!\nThanks Klaas for hanging with me on this. I am so determined to do this. My son has already scolded me that if he see's me with a cig in my hand he is going to throw anything and everything away that is associated with smoking. I guess I really scared him to death also. He hugged me and told me he loved me and cried when I told him the test results. I HAVE to do this not only for myself but for him also.\nO.K., I have been one full week without a cigarette, a miracle for me!\nSo far I have been able to overcome my urge to smoke. I keep reminding myself about all the scarey tests and scans I just went through this past week and how overjoyed I was when they told me NO Cancer! It is amazing what you can do once you get the worst news on your health that you have ever received.\nA FULL WEEK!! CONGRATULATIONS!! KEEP IT UP, I KNOW YOU CAN!!\nI bet your family is very proud of you! It's hard, believe me I know. You're doing great!\nWell, I guess I am off to the store to get some gum. Klaas, today is really bad. My patch came off last night (non name-brand and doesn't stick really well) and this morning all I have wanted is a cig. I put a new patch on but that is all I can think about. I am feeling really sad and missing my cig at the moment. Guess I will run to the store and get some nicotine gum and see if that helps.\nIt took half a day to overcome that urge for a cigarette but I did it! I guess I am going to have to invest in another name brand patch that will not come off so easily. This is not any fun. I am going to get the gum though to see if that helps.\nIt will help, get it. Just keep it around in case.\nQuote from: labubske on November 28, 2012, 11:07:28 PM\nthanks a lot. I am really quite proud of myself. I just did not know I had it in me to do this. I appreciate the encouragement. I am using this spot on Scared Monkeys site to post my bad spots in the road. It helps to say it and move on.\nIt has been two full weeks. Ya know, I might be able to survive this. So far so good. The urge to smoke is starting to diminish. I still cannot believe I haven't reached for a cigarette. I might be able to go on and throw them away now. I have yet to reach over and touched them and haven't wanted to pick one up and smoke it.\nMy breathing is so much better and I am sleeping better at night. So far I have put on very little weight but I know it is coming so I am trying to watch what I eat.\nHope I can keep this up.",

        "raw_content": "Handwriting & Visual-Perception\n\"Sensory Stuff\" for School Use\nSchool-based OTs have a much narrower approach to sensory integration and sensory processing disorder than do private, clinic-based OTs. In school, the OT's job is not so much to change the sensory processing of the child as it is to make a better fit between the sensory needs of the child and the school environment. Most schools do not have the suspended or other movement equipment, the space, or the resources to allow for the extensive one-on-one time between therapist and child that is necessary to work directly on actually changing sensory processing. Most agree that it isn't appropriate to do true Sensory Integration therapy in a school setting - it just isn't part of the scope of practice under IDEA or Multi-Tiered Interventions.\nThat doesn't mean, however, that there is nothing to be done for a child with sensory processing difficulties in the school! What is in our scope of practice is helping a child who has sensory processing difficulties to navigate the school environment (minimize sensory distractions, provide necessary sensory inputs for self-regulation so that the child can attend and learn) and we do this by giving teachers, parents, and some older children just enough information to use strategies and accommodations in the existing school environment. Often, a school-based OT will act as a consultant to gather relevant information from the teacher and staff and to help implement strategies to help the child work around any sensory difficulties. We tend to use terms like \"over-sensitive,\" \"triggers,\" \"tools,\" and\nHere is a list of resources and ideas with that aim in mind:\nAssessment -- see this link to more on Sensory Assessment. Personally, I find that observations in the classroom and interviews with teachers are the most useful. The emphasis in schools is to identify the areas of educational concerns, whether they may be related to sensory aspects of the environment (missing or present), and whether it is warranted to apply in sensory strategies.\nItems for individuals in the classroom (fidget toys, move'n'sit cushion) -- see Sources for Sensory Tools. Usually, the aim of addressing sensory issues in the school is to find a good match between the child and his or her environment. That means finding strategies to keep the child's arousal level functional during school, as well as changes that can be made to the classroom to allow for sensory needs of the child. These can include such simple ideas as having the child sit next to a wall or with his back to a wall so that he doesn't need to be vigilant about someone walking behind him. They can be as comples as having a pup tent in the room with beanbag chairs and other calming pressure touch items for children who become overwhelmed to retreat. See my list of sensory strategies. Many are appropriate for classrooms. There are loads of other such lists out there. Here's a good one from the author of Raising A Sensory Smart Kid.\nHelpful information -- I find Oh Behave! to be a super-useful booklet to give to teachers or parents who are skeptical of the \"other side\" of the debate. If you don't know what I mean, you probably haven't been involved in the common situation where one party (most often, in my experience, a parent) feels that their child is being ostracized, made to feel ashamed, and even being harshly punished for behaviors that they cannot help because they are caused by sensory processing problems. Another party in the picture (usually a teacher or other school employee) feels that the child is being manipulative, the parents are in denial about their child's behavior problems, and they (the party skeptical of the sensory problem) are being asked to make special exceptions to well-thought-out classroom rules because the sun apparently shines out of this child's -- well, you get the picture. The thing is, in my humble experience, they are both right! There are both sensory problems that are driving the child's behavior AND the child is using their different sensory status to drive their mis-behavior. You cannot separate a person's sensory experiences from the rest of them, and that includes past experiences, personality, thought processes, desires, and everything else that makes us tick. So, as I was saying, I love this booklet because it gets at the heart of the matter - changing negative behavior patterns through a combination of behavioral AND sensory strategies. Everyone is on the same page in the desired outcome, right? It also answers many of the protests that teachers have about using sensory strategies (\"it will reward his bad behavior,\" or \"the other students will all want one too,\" for example).\nGroup Activities -- see Alert Program and Take 5! and others on this page\nFeeding Issues (not terribly common in school-based) see Oral and Feeding Issues",

Here, we report that surnames can be recovered from personal genomes by profiling short tandem repeats on the Y chromosome (Y-STRs) and querying recreational genetic genealogy databases. We show that a combination of a surname with other types of metadata, such as age and state, can be used to triangulate the identity of the target. A key feature of this technique is that it entirely relies on free, publicly accessible Internet resources. We quantitatively analyze the probability of identification for U.S. males. We further demonstrate the feasibility of this technique by tracing back with high probability the identities of multiple participants in public sequencing projects.\nSurnames are paternally inherited in most human societies, resulting in their cosegregation with Y-chromosome haplotypes (1\u20135). Based on this observation, multiple genetic genealogy companies offer services to reunite distant patrilineal relatives by genotyping a few dozen highly polymorphic short tandem repeats across the Y chromosome (Y-STRs). The association between surnames and haplotypes can be confounded by nonpaternity events, mutations, and adoption of the same surname by multiple founders (5). The genetic genealogy community addresses these barriers with massive databases that list the test results of Y-STR haplotypes along with their corresponding surnames. Currently, there are at least eight databases and numerous surname project Web sites that collectively contain hundreds of thousands of surname-haplotype records (table S1).\nThe ability of genetic genealogy databases to breach anonymity has been demonstrated in the past. In a number of public cases, male adoptees and descendants of anonymous sperm donors used recreational genetic genealogy services to genotype their Y-chromosome haplotypes and to search the companies\u2019 databases (6\u20139). The genetic matches identified distant patrilineal relatives and pointed to the potential surnames of their biological fathers. By combining other pieces of demographic information, such as date and place of birth, they fully exposed the identity of their biological fathers. Lunshof et al. (10) were the first to speculate that this technique could expose the full identity of participants in sequencing projects. Gitschier (11) empirically approached this hypothesis by testing 30 Y-STR haplotypes of CEU participants in these databases and reported that potential surnames can be detected. [CEU participants are multigenerational families of northern and western European ancestry in Utah who had originally had their samples collected by CEPH (Centre d\u2019Etude du Polymorphisme Humain) and were later reconsented to participate in the HapMap project.] However, these surnames could match thousands of individuals, and the study did not pursue full re-identification at a single-person resolution.\nOur goal was to quantitatively approach the question of how readily surname inference might be possible in a more general population, apply this approach to personal genome data sets, and demonstrate end-to-end identification of individuals with only public information. We show that full identities of personal genomes can be exposed via surname inference from recreational genetic genealogy databases followed by Internet searches. In all cases in which individuals were studied who had donated DNA samples, the informed consent statements they had signed stated privacy breach as a potential risk and the data usage terms did not prevent re-identification. Representatives of relevant organizations that funded the original studies were notified and confirmed the compliance of this study with their guidelines (12).\nAs a primary resource for surname inference, we focused on Ysearch (www.ysearch.org) and SMGF (www.smgf.org), the two largest public genetic genealogy databases with free-of-charge, built-in search engines. The interfaces of these engines are quite similar and allow users to insert a combination of Y-STR alleles and search for matching records on the basis of genetic similarity. The retrieved records contain surnames typically with information about the patrilineal line, such as geographical locations, potential spelling variants, and pedigrees. In total, these databases contain ~39,000 unique surname entries from ~135,000 records. The distribution of records per surname is significantly correlated (R2 = 0.78, P < 1.20 \u00d7 10\u22126) with surname frequencies in the United States, suggesting an overall good representation of this population (Fig. 1A).\nQuantitative assessment of identification via surname inference. (A) The number of Ysearch and SMGF records as a function of surname prevalence in the U.S. population. The best-fit line is shown in blue. (B) Expected performance of surname recovery. The probability of successful recovery (closed bars) and wrong recovery (open bars) is shown at different surname confidence thresholds. The star indicates the middle-range performance threshold that was described in the main text. (C) The expected distribution of recovered surnames as a function of their prevalence. Most recovered surnames are expected to have a frequency of 1:4000 individuals or less. (D) The cumulative distribution function of U.S. males with a profile that matches a specific age, state, and surname combination (black) compared to the distribution when only age and state are known (red). The median is labeled with a dashed line.\nTo test the probability of surname inference, we challenged the two databases with an orthogonal cohort of Y-STR haplotypes consisting of 34 markers (table S2) from 911 individuals, primarily with Caucasian ancestry, whose surnames are known (table S3). This cohort was compiled from YBase, a distinct genetic genealogy database, and contains individuals with 521 surnames that segregate in the U.S. population. In each haplotype query, our surname recovery algorithm began by retrieving the database record with the shortest time to most recent common ancestor (TMRCA) with the input haplotype (fig. S1 and table S4). Then, it calculated a confidence score that the surname match of the retrieved record is significantly better than other matches. If the score passed a user-defined threshold, the algorithm assigned the record\u2019s surname to the input haplotype; otherwise, it categorized it as \"unknown.\" We tested the algorithm with a range of confidence thresholds to explore the trade-off between successful versus wrong recovery of surnames. Finally, we weighted the results using a stratified sampling approach to reflect the frequency of surnames in the U.S. population (13).\nOur analysis projects a success rate of ~12% (SD = 2%) in recovering surnames of U.S. Caucasian males (Fig. 1B and fig. S2). This rate can be accomplished with a conservative threshold that would return a wrong surname in 5% of cases and label 83% of cases as unknown. Higher success rates of up to 18% can be achieved at the price of increased probability to recover an incorrect surname. Because our input cohort is based on individuals who were tested with genetic genealogy services, our results are presumably mostly relevant to socio-economic groups with high participation in these services\u2014namely, upper- and middle-class U.S. Caucasians.\nCombining the recovered surname with additional demographic data can narrow down the identity of the sample originator to just a few individuals. The analysis above indicated that most recovered surnames are quite rare, with frequencies of less than 1:4000 in the U.S. population, corresponding to <40,000 males (Fig. 1C and fig. S3) (13). We considered a scenario in which the genomic data are available with the target\u2019s year of birth and state of residency, two identifiers that are not protected by the United States Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) (14). Searching individuals by year of birth, state, and surname combinations is supported by various online public record search engines, such as PeopleFinders.com or USA-people-search.com. On the basis of extensive simulations with the U.S. Census data, our results predict that year of birth and state alone are weak identifiers and searches based on their combination would match at least 60,000 U.S. males in 50% of cases (Fig. 1D). However, when surname information is added to the search, the median list size shrinks to only 12 males, which are few enough matches to investigate individually.\nNext, we established the feasibility of Illumina sequencing to produce accurate Y-STR haplotypes. Using lobSTR, an algorithm for STR profiling from raw sequencing reads (15), we processed 10 high-coverage male genomes from the Human Genome Diversity Panel (HGDP). lobSTR produced Y-STR haplotypes with an average number of 53 out of the possible 79 genealogical markers (table S5). Comparing these haplotypes to capillary electrophoresis results revealed 99% accuracy. We further found that even at lower sequencing coverage of 10\u00d7, informative haplotypes can be obtained by lobSTR (fig. S4). To test the ability to retrieve genetic genealogy records with the Illumina haplotypes, we profiled STRs from the genome of a U.S. Caucasian male from our lab collection that was sequenced with Illumina 100\u2013base pair (bp) reads to a coverage of 13\u00d7. In parallel, we submitted this sample to the genealogy service of Sorenson Genomics and created a Ysearch record based on their results. A search with the Illumina haplotype returned his Ysearch entry as a top record (fig. S5).\nThe National Center for Biotechnology Information archives host a small number of genomes from identified individuals, providing good test cases for identification via surname inference. We used lobSTR to extract Y-STR haplotypes from the genomes of John West (16), Michael Snyder (17), and Craig Venter (18) (table S6). Searching Ysearch and SMGF with the Y-STR haplotypes of West and Snyder did not return their surnames and resulted in low matches to records with relatively ancient MRCAs 23 to 28 generations ago (13). A search with Craig Venter\u2019s haplotype returned a clear match to a \"Venter\" record that was concordant at all 33 comparable markers and with an estimated TMRCA of less than eight generations (Fig. 2 and table S7). We further tested whether it would be feasible to trace back Craig Venter by combining the inferred surname with demographic profiling. A query for \"Surname: Venter; Year of Birth: 1946; State: California\" in online public record search engines retrieved two matching records of males, one of whom was Craig Venter himself.\nThe top five records retrieved after searching Ysearch with the Y-STR haplotypes of Michael Snyder, John West, and Craig Venter. The expected number of generations to the MRCA is given in parentheses for each record. Searching with Craig Venter returned a \"Venter\" record (closed bar) as the top match.\nSurname inference from personal genomes puts the privacy of current de-identified public data sets at risk (19). We focused on the male genomes in the collection of Utah Residents with Northern and Western European Ancestry (CEU). The informed consent of these individuals did not definitively guarantee their privacy and stated that future techniques might be able to identify them (20). To test the ability to trace back the identities of these samples from personal genomes, we processed with lobSTR 32 Illumina genomes of CEU male founders that reside in public repositories of the 1000 Genomes Project (21) and the European Nucleotide Archive that were sequenced with read lengths of at least 76 bp. Most of these genomes were sequenced to a shallow depth of less than 5\u00d7 and produced sparse Y-STR haplotypes. We selected the 10 genomes that had the most complete Y-STR haplotypes with a range of 34 to 68 markers to attempt surname recovery. Searching the genetic genealogy databases returned top-matching records with Mormon ancestry in 8 of the 10 individuals for whom the top hit had at least 12 comparable markers. Moreover, for four individuals, the top match consisted of multiple records with the same surname, increasing the confidence that the correct surname was retrieved. This potentially high surname recovery rate stems from a combination of the deep interest in genetic genealogy among this population and the large family sizes, which exponentially increases the number of targeted individuals for every person who is tested.\nIn five surname recovery cases, we fully identified the CEU individuals and their entire families with very high probabilities (Table 1). These five cases belonged to three pedigrees, in two of which the surnames of both the paternal and maternal grandfathers were recovered. Our strategy for tracing back individuals relied on the recovered surnames as well as publicly available Internet resources such as record search engines, obituaries, and genealogical Web sites, and demographic metadata available in the Coriell Cell Repository Web site. The year of birth was inferred by subtracting the ages in Coriell from the year of collecting samples. Each complete pedigree re-identification took 3 to 7 hours by a single person. The identified families matched exactly to the corresponding pedigree descriptions in the Coriell database: The number of children, the birth order of daughters and sons, and the state of residence were identical. All grandparents were alive in 1984, the year that the CEU cell line collection was established (22). In the two cases of a dual surname recovery from both grandfathers, the surname of the father and the maiden name of the mother matched exactly to the grandfathers\u2019 surnames, substantially increasing the confidence of the recovery. Coriell also lists the ages (23) during sample collection for these two pedigrees, which agreed with the age differences of all tested cases with the identified family members. Using genealogical Web sites, we traced the patrilineal lineage that connects each identified genome through the MRCA to the record originator in the genetic genealogy database (Fig. 3). This analysis revealed that two to seven meiosis events link the CEU genome to the record source. Finally, we calculated that the probability of finding random families in the Utah population with these exact demographic characteristics is less than 1 in 105 to 5 \u00d7 109 (13). In total, surname inference breached the privacy of nearly 50 individuals from these three pedigrees.\nComparison of CEU identification cases.\nIllustrations of the three CEU pedigrees (black) showing how genetic information from distant patrilineal relatives (arrow; red, patrilineal lines) can identify individuals. Filled squares represent sequenced individuals. To respect the privacy of these families, only abbreviated versions are presented. The sex of the CEU grandchildren was randomized. The numbers of grandchildren are not given.\nThis study shows that data release, even of a few markers, from one person can spread through deep genealogical ties and lead to the identification of another person who might have no acquaintance with the person who released his genetic data. The propagation of information through shared male lines amplifies the range of identification, allowing ~135,000 records to potentially target several million U.S. males. Another feature of this identification technique is that it entirely relies on free, publicly available resources. It can be completed end-to-end with only computational tools and an Internet connection. The compatibility of our technique with public record search engines makes it much easier to continue identifying other data sets in the same pedigree, including female genomes, once one male target is identified. We envision that the risk of surname inference will grow in the future. Genetic genealogy enthusiasts add thousands of records to these databases every month. In addition, the advent of third-generation sequencing platforms with longer reads will enable even higher coverage of Y-STR markers, further strengthening the ability to link haplotypes and surnames.\nSimilar to other genetic privacy issues (24\u201330), preventing surname inference from public whole-genome data sets might be quite challenging. Masking Y-STR markers could limit the effectiveness of the method presented in this study, but this approach is not sustainable (13). Our analysis suggests that Y-STR haplotypes can be imputed back from single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on the Y chromosome (Y-SNPs) when a large reference set of male genomes will be available (fig. S6). In addition, community efforts, such as the Y Chromosome Genome Comparison, have already started exploring the association between Y-SNPs and surnames (table S1) and might allow bypassing Y-STR masking. We also posit that restricting genetic genealogy information is not practical, as some of the data are already scattered in multiple end-user Web sites and genealogy mailing lists.\nExisting policy tools, such as controlled-access databases with data use agreements, may mediate the exposure of genomic information to surname inference. However, in our view, the appropriate response to genetic privacy challenges is not for the public to stop donating samples or for data sharing to stop. These would be devastating reactions that could substantially hamper scientific progress. Rather, we believe that establishing clear policies for data sharing, educating participants about the benefits and risks of genetic studies (31), and the legislation of proper usage of genetic information (32) are pivotal ingredients to support the genomic endeavor.\nB.

        "raw_content": "Tuesday, January 8, 2019 \u00b7 by Katy St. Clair\nPUBLIC DEFENDER JEFF ADACHI SWORN IN FOR FIFTH TERM \u201cWe\u2019ve come together on this special day/Send a message loud and clear\u201d- Earth, Wind, & Fire\nSan Francisco, CA\u2014 It might have been raining outside, but inside was all Earth, Wind & Fire as musician and singer Tasche warmed up the crowd gathered at the fifth inauguration of San Francisco Public Defender Jeff Adachi on Tuesday morning. The ceremony took place in the Public Defender\u2019s building and was officiated by Mayor London Breed. Breed made a point of describing her long relationship with Adachi, which began when she used to see him at her housing project when he came to visit clients. Mayor Breed was also in attendance four years ago as a supervisor when Adachi was sworn-in for his fourth term, causing Chief Attorney Matt Gonzalez to quip that newly elected District 10 Supervisor in attendance, Shamann Walton, might just end up with a higher office in his future. Gonzalez made a brief introduction to the event by thanking the elected officials in the crowd such as Walton, Judge Roger Chan, and District Attorney George Gasc\u00d3n. Also in attendance was former San Francisco Public Defender Jeff Brown, who himself had served five terms prior to Adachi. Gonzalez said that it was \u201ccritical\u201d that San Francisco have an elected public defender, an institutional rarity that he said ensures valuable independence. Since Adachi has been Public Defender, the office has indeed grown significantly into an entity with over 100 attorneys, 80 support staff, and service to more than 20,000 clients each year. His sixteen-year tenure has brought critical resources to the department such as computers and sophisticated research tools, as well as paralegals, social workers, and a greatly expanded investigation unit.\nIn addition to boots-on-the-ground resources, Adachi has overseen the creation of the Clean Slate Program, which helps clear the records of approximately 2,000 clients per year. Mayor Breed also praised the office\u2019s MAGIC programs \u2013 Mobilization For Adolescent Growth In our Communities\u2014as well as efforts the Public Defender made to eliminate costly fines and fees associated with clients\u2019 cases, a model that is being replicated nationally, she said. After Adachi raised his right hand took his oath of office, promising to \u201cwell and faithfully\u201d fulfill his duties, he said that the day\u2019s significance had left him \u201cspeechless, which I never am.\u201d\nNevertheless, he thanked his staff and colleagues and described his goal of creating a public defender\u2019s office that \u201ctreated clients just as we would want to be treated\u201d if they ever found themselves in the same position. He reminisced about moving into the office\u2019s current location apart from the Hall of Justice, where clients can have the dignity of a space that is no longer directly adjacent to the police department. Adachi also said that he was proud to preside over one of the most diverse public defender office\u2019s in the country, with a staff that is 40 percent people of color, 20 percent LGBTQ, and 50 percent female. He looked forward to celebrating the 100th anniversary of the San Francisco Public Defender\u2019s Office in 2021, promising a \u201cbig celebration.\u201d\nHe also described how proud he was of the immigration defense unit and programs that lift up and support youth, such as, the MAGIC program and Juvenile Unit.\nAs he neared closing, he brought it all back to Earth, Wind, & Fire, reciting the lines, \u201c\u2019Child is born/With a heart of gold/Way of the world/Makes his heart so cold\u2019 \u2013We need to change that,\u201d he said. \u201cA big part of that is ensuring that our kids have opportunities.\u201d Going forward, Adachi stressed that his office will remain dedicated to providing the highest level of representation to its clients as it continues on its path towards true justice for all.\nPrevious Article:An Innocent Man\nNext Article:SF Public Defender\u2019s Office honored with \u201cChampions Public Defense\u201d Award",

At the peak of their careers, they break loose from the safe and familiar, stuff their backpacks with bare essentials, and buy two one-way tickets to Honolulu.\nFrom a road trip across the United States, to spending a summer in Paris, studying French and being certified in the art of patisserie at the prestigious Le Cordon Bleu, from roughing it out in wild Madagascar (with no electricity, running water or toilets!), to trekking in the Himalayas, Pam and Ning go in search of new experiences and ultimate adventures off the beaten track.\nIf you think this is a guidebook for girls, or an offshoot of Eat, Pray, Love... think again! Adventures of 2 Girls boasts action-packed accounts of sticky situations faced by two city girls in foreign lands, travel tips about budgeting, finances, insurance, PMS survival etc., plus quirky observations, and quiet ruminations on lazy afternoons... complete with private photos from their compact cameras and iPhones, and sketches from their travel journals.\nIt's a heart-warming, humorous and inspiring story about friendship, chasing dreams, taking risks, and letting go.\nForeword by Neil Gaiman.\nPages: 288 - 8\" x 5\" - Paperback - Black and white illustrations and photos",

        "raw_content": "Heating The Garage In The Winter\nIf you put a bathroom in your garage, you may want to finish the garage so you can heat it in the winter. Otherwise, it may be too cold for an early morning shower. Also, pipes might freeze in the winter if you run them through the walls. Your plumber will install the pipes the best way to prevent freezing, which might be running them under the floor. If you plan to heat the garage, then you'll probably want to insulate it to make climate control more affordable. Since you may not be allowed to connect to your HVAC system, you'll need an alternate form of heating, and you'll need to factor that into your costs.\nFollowing Codes\nThere are several codes to follow when it comes to installing a bathroom. You won't have to worry about knowing them as they are something your plumber will follow automatically. However, you may want to know the codes if you're planning the layout of the bathroom yourself. You might not be able to squeeze the room into as small of a space as you thought. A toilet and shower have a required minimum clearance that has to be considered when you're figuring out where to place them. In addition to following building codes when installing the bathroom, you'll need to get a permit for the work and then have an inspection by the city after the bathroom is installed.\nConnecting a garage bathroom to a drain system can be a challenging part of the installation. This might require busting up the floor to install drains. Another possible option is to build a raised floor so the drains can be placed under it. However, since the garage wasn't built with plumbing in mind, it may not have the proper slope for natural drainage. The plumber has to work these details out along with how to connect to your home's pipes and vent system to make sure the water and toilet are hooked up properly and won't give you problems in the future.\nInstalling a bathroom in your garage might be more complex than installing a bathroom in your house, but when you're short on space, it's worth it. Having an extra bathroom is almost a necessity when you have a large and growing family. Contact a contractor service, like Sherwood Mechanical Services, for more help.",

Mummy says that many schools don\u2019t teach special students like me because a lot of the mummies and daddies of the other children are scared that I will be mean to my classmates. It makes me sad because I want to have friends but sometimes I don\u2019t know how to tell other people what I am feeling.\nMummy tells me that it doesn\u2019t matter because my REAL friends will know that I am a good girl and will not be mean to them on purpose. Mummy says it is okay, because even though it takes me some time to talk to people, she knows that I am trying my hardest and that makes me a brave girl.\nMummy says it is hard to find a school that is used to special children like me, and it makes me sad. I know it makes mummy sad too, because sometimes I hear her wishing it was easier to find a school that can see how smart I am, when she thinks I am not listening. I think mummy is a brave girl too \u2013 mummy has been trying to find a school for a long time even if it is very difficult. I think she is very brave.\nMummy has put my name down on the waiting lists for many of the special schools so that they know I really want to learn many things and be a big girl, but Mummy says that there are so many special little children like me and not enough places. I wish there were more spaces so we can all learn and be big boys and girls!\nMummy tells me that in two more years, it will be easier to find a school for me. She says once I am 7 years old, there will be a lot more schools that know how to teach a special girl like me!\nMummy tells me that it is because schools for children below 7 years old are owned by uncles and aunties and not the government, these schools are more expensive and have less places. But once I am 7 years old, there are more schools for special children like me. I might even be able to choose the school I want to go to when I am 7 years old!\nEven though I don\u2019t go to school, Mummy makes sure that I learn as many things as I can so that I will be smart. Mummy has enrolled me into the Early Intervention Programme for Infants and Children so that I can learn things like how to communicate. It is nice, because my teachers know that I am special and I am trying my hardest to learn and be good.\nBut I wish I could learn more things, I wish I didn\u2019t have to wait until I am 7 years old.\nI wish I could go to school like the other boys and girls.\nWhile there are 20 government-affiliated Special Needs Schools in Singapore that run different programmes catering to distinct disability groups of children, these schools only take in students aged seven years and above. The pre-school sector in Singapore remains privatised, with few options for special needs pre-schools. Existing special needs pre-schools in Singapore, such as the Kindle Garden, are oversubscribed or have significantly higher school fees compared to normal pre-schools, making it harder to secure a place for special needs children.\nJoel Koh is an aspiring part time writer and journalist with a day job.\nCategoriesCommentary TagsCharity, disabilities, Ministry of Education, ministry of social and family development, moe, MSF, schools, special needs, Special needs children, special needs education, sped schools\nPrevious PostPrevious Here are a list of countries you\u2019ll never be able to visit \u2013 because terrorists",

The first year I reviewed this executive\u2019s 360-degree feedback report (feedback from his direct reports and co-workers), he scored in the sixth percentile for providing recognition (in other words \u2014 94% of the people in his company were seen as being more effective at this than he was). Within one year, he had moved all the way up to the 94th percentile for providing recognition (now \u2014 in a complete reversal \u2014 only 6% were seen as scoring higher than he did).\nGiven this dramatic turnaround in scores I asked, \u201cPlease let me know what you did differently. Whatever it was, it worked. I would like to share it with all the people I teach.\u201d\nHis answer provided a road-map that I have never seen fail.\n1. List the names of the key groups of people that impact your life \u2014 both at work and at home (customers, co-workers, friends, family members, etc.).\n2. Write down the names of the people in each group.\n3. Post your list in a place you can\u2019t miss seeing regularly.\n4. Twice a week \u2014 once on Wednesday, once on Friday \u2014 review the list and ask yourself, \u201cDid anyone on this list do something that I should recognize?\u201d\n5. If someone did, stop by to say \u201cthank you,\u201d make a quick phone call, leave a voice mail, send an email, or jot down a note.\n6. Don\u2019t do anything that takes up too much time. This process needs to be time-efficient or you won\u2019t stick with it.\n7. If no one on the list did anything that you believe should be recognized, don\u2019t say anything. You don\u2019t want to be a hypocrite or a phony. No recognition is better than recognition that you don\u2019t really mean.\n8. Stick with the process. You won\u2019t see much impact in a week \u2013 but you will see a huge difference in a year.\nMy recent book, MOJO, is a New York Times (advice), Wall Street Journal (business), USAToday (money) and Publisher\u2019s Weekly (non-fiction) best seller.

As you age, your risk of developing periodontal (gum) disease increases. Periodontal disease is both preventable, and in many cases, reversible. When left untreated, it can lead to more serious complications such as bloody or swollen gums, and even tooth loss. Even more alarming are the numerous studies connecting periodontal disease to other serious illnesses. Here\u2019s what you need to know about gum health as you age.\nPeriodontal Disease and Your Overall Health\nPeriodontal disease has been linked to serious health issues. In fact, a recent study conducted by the University of Southampton and King\u2019s College London uncovered a link between periodontal disease and an increase in the rate of cognitive decline in those who suffer from early Alzheimer\u2019s disease. In patients with periodontal disease, the study found cognitive decline underwent a rapid change, occurring six times as fast on average. Periodontal disease has also been found to increase your risk of developing heart disease or having a stroke. Risk factors for these serious issues increase with age, among other causes, and it is especially important to limit potential risk factors where possible. This can be as easy as improving your gum health with a visit to our office.\nThe Numbers You Need to Know\nAccording to the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research, moderate or severe periodontal disease was found in over 14% of seniors aged 65 to 74. The number increases to more than 20% for those over 75 years of age. Men were found to be more likely than women to have moderate to severe periodontal disease. Smoking was also found to have a significant impact. The same study showed 32% of current smokers had periodontal disease, compared to 14% for those who never smoked.\nAs you age, it is essential to keep up with your gum health. Doing so is an important link in lowering your risk factors for other serious ailments such as heart disease, stroke, and the impacts of Alzheimer\u2019s disease. You can keep your gums healthy by brushing twice each day for a full two minutes. Be sure to regularly floss your teeth as well. Flossing is an effective way to clean the hard-to-reach cracks and gaps where plaque builds up. Schedule a visit with our team for a complete gum evaluation. We can work with you to devise a course of action to ensure healthy gums.\n\u2190 Aurora Dentist | One Tool for Better Gum Health\nAurora Family Dentist | 12 Reasons to See Your Dentist \u2192",

        "raw_content": "FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION ISSUE: Rudy Bartley and Prime Minister Tuilaepa Sa'ilele Malielegaoi.\nThe Samoa Alliance of Media Practitioner for Development (S.A.M.P.O.D.) has cautioned Prime Minister Tuilaepa Dr. Sailele Malielegaoi against continuing with a threat to shut down Facebook in Samoa.\nIn a statement, the Group has reminded the Government that the right to free expression is fundamental to any democracy.\n\u201cThe right to free expression is fundamental to democracy like Samoa,\u201d the Group says in a statement.\n\u201cThe Universal Declaration of Human Rights affirms the universal right to freedom of opinion and expression, which includes freedom to hold opinions without interference and to seek, receive and impart information and ideas through any media, regardless of frontiers.\n\u201cSamoa is a signatory to the declaration.\u201d\nS.A.M.P.O.D. was founded by media veteran, Rudy Bartley, of WT Media. He is also the President of the Journalists Association of (Western) Samoa (J.A.W.S.)\nThe group has more than 30 media practitioners as members.\nLast month, Prime Minister Tuilaepa Dr. Sa\u2019ilele Maleilegaoi threatened to ban social media platforms from Samoa completely.\nThat will happen if \u201cgutless anonymous bloggers\u201d continue to use the freedom social media affords them to abuse government officials and innocent members of the public.\n\u201cThe Government will do what it takes to settle this matter once and for all, even if it means banning Facebook,\u201d Tuilaepa said.\n\u201cMost Governments have banned Facebook, and we have been holding back because of the positive impact of social media.\u201d\nIn response, S.A.M.P.O.D. points out that while they do not endorse the use of Facebook to defame, incite violence or spread misinformation, they continue to support freedom of speech and freedom of information within reason.\n\u201cFreedom of information and expression is essential to a functioning democracy, and Facebook provides an avenue for citizens to express their views freely,\u201d the group says in a statement.\n\u201cMeasures to control implications can be addressed under Criminal Libel Law and the Media Council Bill.\n\u201cBlanket actions that hinder the free flow of information and constructive criticism by members of the public are a direct threat to freedom of expression. It is a place for the exchange of ideas, a forum for debate on pressing social and political issues.\n\u201cIn recent years, Facebook has also become an avenue for the media to verify stories and for crisis response and assistance.\n\u201cThis tool is invaluable as we continue to experience disasters on a regular basis, and free access to information is important.\n\u201cWe urge the Government to use existing mechanisms to address issues arising from the misuse of Facebook, but humbly caution against the banning of this essential medium of information for the people of Samoa,\u201d according to the statement.\nAs reported earlier, the Prime Minister, in justifying why the Government is considering banning of Facebook, says Government has had enough of faceless ghosts who use sites such as Facebook to post defamatory claims against unsuspecting victims.\nTuilaepa said these faceless writers have been posting countless allegations including extra marital affairs, corruption and sensitive details about public figures, their families and their children.\n\u201cBecause it\u2019s all based on lies, those affected are government leaders,\u201d he said.\n\u201cThose behind the social media posts are driven by the devil, their hearts are filled with hatred and I\u2019m certain they don\u2019t rest at night because they continue to make up fabrications.\u201d\nTuilaepa added these writers have gone as far as to level allegations against Church Ministers.\n\u201cIf the allegations are true, they would have been published in the Samoa Observer. It then allows us the opportunity to sue them and find out the accuracy of the allegations.\n\u201cOnly gutless people would such a thing and make up these stories. Maybe their parents did this as well.\u201d\nHe said other lies posted involve parents having sexual intercourse with their children.\nTuilaepa said he has an inkling about whom they are and they would eventually be caught.\nHe warned that once they are found, they \u201ccould be dead\u201d in two days given the hatred they have provoked.\nTuilaepa said he has some names but does not want to say them yet because \u201cbullets will be fired\u201d and that\u2019s what he doesn\u2019t want.\n\u201cSo I advise them not to play with fire. I want them to know that no matter where you hide, you will be caught.\u201d\nAccording to the Prime Minister, the only reason the Government is delaying the move to ban Facebook is because there are numerous people who utilise this site for the right reasons.\nHe said the Tui Samoa Cable was established for the betterment of services and connection to the outside world but this is the negative impact.\n\u201cThe country is in turmoil due to these unfounded allegations.\u201d",

A famous author said: \u201cEven if changing means we will succeed and live our dream, most of us still choose to make excuses rather than to make changes.\u201d\nSo the question you and I must answer is: Do we choose to change and live the way we know is best? Or do we choose to keep doing what is easy and comfortable? Remember, if things don\u2019t change, they\u2019re going to stay the same!\nIf you keep telling yourself that you will never succeed because people and life are unfair to you, then that is the life you will always have. Your same, unsatisfying life with no real challenges or success. But it is your choice.\nThe problem is that most people choose to stay and live in their comfort zone. This is all the familiar things we\u2019ve known all our life. Our habits and way we\u2019ve always lived. Our same thinking and lifestyle. But because we already know what these things are like, we feel safe and comfortable with that kind of life, even though we may not be happy or successful.\nYet we\u2019re afraid to try something new, since it will force us to start changing some things in our thinking and way of living. But if we want to reach our potential and enjoy the excellent life we were created for, we must leave our past, wrong life, and the excuses we make for it.\nThis is why Jesus Christ came to forgive and free us from our wrong, unsuccessful way of living. He is the only way you can start living the right way that works, so you can enjoy life to the fullest. So why not ask Jesus to come in to your heart and take full charge of your life today and every day? You\u2019ve got nothing to lose and everything to gain.\nJust Think a Minute.",

        "raw_content": "Back More Than Just Hope in Gainesville\nMore Than Just Hope in Gainesville\nThere\u2019s not just hope in Gainesville, anymore. There\u2019s finally promise.\nI walked into Ben Hill Griffin stadium this afternoon and in the elevator on the way up to the press box, I overheard a couple of guys talking about the attendance at last year's spring game.\nThe Gators reported about 48,000 for the 2017 Blue-Orange scrimmage. In reality, the number was closer to 30,000, and that's rounding up.\nThis was different. For the 45-50,000 they said came a year ago, there were genuinely that many souls in the building to see Dan Mullen's first \"game\" as head coach in The Swamp.\nThis time the reported number was just over 53,000. \u201cWe didn\u2019t fudge the number one bit,\u201d Mullen quipped.\n\u201cI was told last year that we never cracked 90,000,\u201d Mullen continued. \u201cWhen i was here before, for four years, we never went below 90,000.\u201d\nThere's been an excitement drought since Urban Meyer left the program. Sure, in the run up to seasons past the fan base may have been able to manufacture some hope, but it was just that -- manufactured. Even the couple of SEC title bouts they found themselves in were more human sacrifice than football.\nThis, though, this is the real deal.\nManufactured or not, hope is fairy dust. Anyone can hope for anything. I hope I win the lottery. Promise, however, is rooted in something tangible. That's the difference.\nMullen rallied the old guard to stand by side, this afternoon. He put out an all-call to former Gator greats, and come they did. It was a homecoming of sorts, but, more than that, it was an example of what this program was and, above all else, can be again.\n\u201cThere were a lot of SEC Championships, National Championships, Super Bowls, All-Americans, and All-SEC players on that sideline,\u201d Mullen stated.\nThere will be no new titles in 2018. There probably won\u2019t be too many All-Americans or national award winners, either. Not yet.\nStill, one thing that will be back, and, in some sense, already is, is the fun. Tebow and Harvin were fun. Rainey and Demps were fun. Ahmad Black and Major Wright were fun\u2026 well, except to play against, surely. What\u2019s not fun is ranking second to last, third to last, and fourth to last in the SEC in points per game over the last three seasons.\n\u201cI\u2019m going to have fun. I\u2019m competitive and want to win, but we\u2019re going to have fun doing this,\u201d Mullen affirmed.\nThere were no excessive celebration penalties called today. Guys punted the ball into the stands, had a dunk contest over the crossbar, and even played a round of Duck, Duck, Goose. The offense celebrated when the defense made plays, and the defense celebrated when the offense made plays (after the initial shock wore off).\nI tweeted earlier today about how these spring games are like a refreshing glass of water in the desert that is the long offseason. Gator fans have been walking a much longer trek. Sure, they\u2019ve played football on Saturday\u2019s in the fall each year, but they haven\u2019t played Florida football.\nDan Mullen isn\u2019t bringing them a glass of water, he\u2019s leading them to the ocean. There\u2019s still a ways to go, but there\u2019s finally a light at the end of the tunnel.\nHow we got here is beyond me. We\u2019re talking about the University of Florida -- the flagship school of the nation\u2019s premier football recruiting hotbed. Steve Spurrier, Tim Tebow, Emmitt Smith, Danny Wuerffel. It\u2019s unacceptable. Florida should always be good, no matter what, forever.\nDumbfounding as it is, take solace in that it\u2019s coming to an end.\nMullen talked about bringing the championship standard back to Florida and making football fun again. The former will have to wait, but the latter is already underway.",

        "raw_content": "May 17 \u2013 Prior to Obama\u2019s meeting with African Leaders\nby Granate Sosnoff on 4th June, 2012\nInvesting in hunger: Africa\nThis Saturday President Obama will meet with African leaders to discuss food security at Camp David. One thing they probably won\u2019t discuss is the role of foreign investment in causing food insecurity.\nMost of us know that the US offers huge amounts of aid to governments like Ethiopia (over a billion a year since 2007) including funds for famine relief. What we don\u2019t all know is that at the same time that we taxpayers and donors are giving aid to help African nations, American investors are hindering Africa\u2019s food production by accumulating fertile, breadbasket lands there.\nInvesting in agricultural projects in Africa that provide food or jobs to buy food would make sense. But investors aren\u2019t supporting the production of staple foods like cassava and maize for sale in African markets. They\u2019re making money off growing exports like sugar in Ethiopia and palm oil in Sierra Leone and creating very few new jobs.\nThe World Bank has facilitated this process as it continues to promote a welcoming investor climate as the road to successful development. Unlikely investors such as university endowments, pension funds, and foundations are drawn to both the promise of 25% returns and the added flash of supporting development and responsible agriculture.\nCritics of the World Bank\u2019s strategy, say that they are not opposed to investment that is actually responsible. They argue that promises of infrastructure and jobs have not been realized. And what should be a boost to African communities has instead only added to existing problems.\nTragically, land deals have had a deep downside in Africa. Including the fact that huge groups of people have to be displaced to make way for them.\nIn Ethiopia, 70,000 are being forcibly moved in Gambella. The government has said that people are going willingly to new villages where promises of schools, health care and food await. But Human Rights Watch, the Oakland Institute and other NGOs have documented that this is hardly the case. They found that the ongoing displacement has been fraught with violence and coercion and that promises of benefits have gone unrealized.\nThe World Bank estimates that more than 96 million acres, an area the size of France, is engaged in land deals. Much of this land was previously occupied by villages and utilized for food production.\nTake Tanzania for example. AgriSol Energy\u2019s website markets their partnership of American technology and know-how to help underdeveloped global locations.\nThe reality is that some of the land AgriSol intends to develop is home to thriving, robust communities successfully producing food for themselves and nearby villages. AgriSol\u2019s deal is reliant on moving 162,000 people. Bad press and ugly events on the ground has prompted Iowa State University, a key partner in the charade of responsible agro-investing, to pull out entirely.\nWhat the Oakland Institute, a policy think tank, found in investigations of fifty land deals in seven countries is that investors are in Africa to make a lot of money, not improve the lives of Africans.\nSimply put, foreign investors are taking some of the choicest lands in Africa and offering little in return. This ceding of Africa\u2019s fertile lands is not only unfair it is laying the groundwork for fresh tragedy as small farmers are being forced off their lands and losing the ability to provide food for themselves and their communities.\nIt makes little sense to promote this kind of investment in Africa. It displaces communities who then add to the ranks of those already dependent on foreign aid.\nIt\u2019s one of those win-lose-lose situations: investors get huge returns on their investments; Africans lose their land; and taxpayers and donors pay for more aid.\nComments Off on May 17 \u2013 Prior to Obama\u2019s meeting with African Leaders",

        "title": "Sports | MYCHAMPLAINVALLEY NHL Game Preview - Ducks v Red Wings | My Champlain Valley",
        "raw_content": "Ducks in Detroit looking to end 11-game skid\nThe Ducks have lost a franchise-record 11 consecutive games (0-7-4). If they lose again tonight, it will mark the NHL's longest losing streak in a single season in roughly four years -- when Buffalo lost 14 in a row from December 29, 2014, to January 30, 2015.\nThe Ducks are 8-3-0 against the Red Wings since the 2013-14 season, but both teams have been pathetic on the power play in that span -- Anaheim is 2-for-35 and Detroit is 1-for-36. The Ducks are 4-for-46 (8.7 percent) in 17 games since December 5, second worst in the NHL (Columbus, 8.3).\nDetroit is a league-worst 2-7-2 at home since the start of December and tied with Chicago for the most home losses in the NHL this season with 16. The Red Wings had gone 11 straight home games without a power-play goal until scoring one in their most recent home game last Tuesday (3-2 loss to Montreal).\nRickard Rakell has six goals through 33 games -- he recently missed over a month with an ankle injury -- after scoring one Sunday. He had 34 goals in 77 games last season, and his drop of -28 goals to this point in the season is tied for second-worst in the NHL (Eric Staal, -29).\nTyler Bertuzzi recorded his first career hat trick in Detroit's last game after having only one goal in his previous 18 games. The Red Wings' two hat tricks since the start of the 2017 calendar year -- Frans Nielsen had the other on December 4 -- are tied for the second fewest in the NHL (Ottawa has none).\nAnaheim has blown a third-period lead in each of its last three losses. The Ducks have suffered 14 losses when leading after two periods since the start of last season, most in the NHL.\nThe Anaheim Ducks have gone nearly a month without a victory. They'll try once again to break their long winless streak when they visit Detroit to face the Red Wings on Tuesday.\nThe Ducks are 0-7-4 over their last 11 games, their last victory coming Dec. 17 in Pittsburgh, 4-2. Their latest disappointment came on Sunday, when they dropped a 4-3 overtime decision at Winnipeg.\n\"We know the position we're in, but we gained a point in a tough place to play,\" left wing Andrew Cogliano told the team's website shortly after the loss. \"We just have to focus on this road trip. We didn't get two points, but it was a good start for the next four. We played a stronger game defensively.\n\"This is one of the best teams in the league,\" he added. \"We should've won the game, but the point is a good start.\"\nWhen the Ducks finally do break their losing streak, Cogliano won't be able to enjoy it. He was dealt on Monday morning to the Dallas Stars for center Devin Shore.\nThe 24-year-old Shore has 29 goals in 209 career games, all with Dallas (23-19-4, 50 points). He has five goals and 12 assists in 42 games this season.\nAs for the Ducks (19-18-9, 47 points), coach Randy Carlyle is under fire but general manager Bob Murray gave him a vote of confidence in a statement issued after the loss to the Jets.\n\"While it's not my preference to make comments on this topic during the season, our recent play has led to many questions. Our fans are frustrated, rightfully so, and deserve a response from me,\" he said. \"At this time, I am not considering a coaching change. I am more focused on our players, specifically with who is going to step up in this situation. The way we played (Sunday) was a step in the right direction, but we need much, much more. We have higher expectations for this group, and they should expect more from themselves.\"\nThe Wings (17-23-7, 41 points) are in a rebuilding phase but they're feeling a little bit better about themselves after a 5-2 win at Minnesota on Saturday. They had lost 13 of their previous 15 games.\nLeft wing Tyler Bertuzzi was the star, collecting his first career hat trick. He had two tip-ins and a backhander in front of the net.\n\"That's his bread and butter for sure (going to the net),\" coach Jeff Blashill told reporters after the game. \"He's a real good defensive player. He's a real good complementary player with the guys like Larks (Dylan Larkin) and Nyqui (Gustav Nyquist) because he can make a play with them, he's got poise with them. He's real good around the net, he knows how to tip pucks, not just a net presence but knows how to tip pucks.\"\nAnother left wing, Thomas Vanek, scored the other two goals. He didn't have a point in the previous three games.\n\"His effort's been great. It's not an effort thing,\" Blashill said. \"At times, I think he's started to squeeze it a little bit too tight. So good for him to shoot the puck. We need him shooting as much as he can.\"\nAnaheim recorded a 3-2 shootout victory in the first meeting on Oct. 8.",

India holds a higher rank than Italy in the Asia-Oceania zone and was announced to host the match by virtue of that but the city for the qualifiers is yet to be decided by the Indian body.\nItaly was one of the four losing quarter-finalists while India, who lost the playoffs to Serbia earlier this month, will host the game by the grace of their higher ranking in the Davis Cup in the Asia-Oceania zone. In total, 18 finalist teams will take part in the tournament including this year\u2019s four semi-finalists and two wildcards (Argentina and Britain), where the game will be held from 18-24 November.\nWeather will be an important factor in selecting the venue for the qualifier game in February. Considering the cooler weather during the month of February in Kolkata and Chandigarh, the team management will preferably choose Chennai in the south for a warmer climate. As the Europeans are familiar to play on clay courts, India might go for hard or grass ones.\nItaly, who have five players in top-100 in singles including the temperamental world No. 13 Fabio Fognini in their ranks, hold a 4-1 record against India. In their last two meetings, Italy won on clay in Genoa in 1998 whereas India got the better of Italy on the grass in Calcutta in 1985.\nThe Indian Davis Cup captain - Mahesh Bhupathi said, \"Happy we got a home tie. We will have to talk to everyone. It\u2019s too early and we don\u2019t need to let them (Italy) know (about the choice of the surface) just now,\u201d reported TOI.",

        "title": "MLB Secondary Market Recap (April 20-26, 2015) | The Tao of Sports Powered by FanMaker",
        "raw_content": "The third week of the Major League Baseball season starts to warm up and kids start to exit school. That means great news for the primary, as well as the secondary, as demand especially in those cold-weather cities unfreezes itself from the blizzard-like temperatures of Opening Day in Detroit or Chicago.\nThe Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim had a sold seven game series as far as the secondary was concerned. Resellers realized an average of $28 ARP, despite a GIP that fell into the low-teens. Ticket inventory numbers were average, with only a slight increase of listings during the third game of the home stand where tickets ballooned to a 3,004 average, otherwise keeping to 2,500 and below for the majority of the seven game slate.\nOnly five games at Chase Field, and the Arizona Diamondbacks helped a great resale for those with ticket listings to offer. The average SVG was below 1,200 for each of the five games, yielding an ARP of around $33 with a GIP that held at $13 throughout the two series. This was actually a surprise at how little inventory made its way to the secondary, with no game listing more than 4% stadium capacity for the entire home stand.\nBaltimore\u2019s three games at Camden Yards came at a political nightmare time for a city-wide controversy. The resale numbers were higher than average, but so were the listings, especially with the middle game of the series happening on Saturday night, when fewer Baltimore residents left their home for the game, due to the traffic jams and rioting surrounding the city.\nJust one game on the slate came with Baltimore playing at Fenway Park, where with a $74.57 ARP \u2013 $60 GIP against a 3,339 SVG. A $1.86 million MCAP was offered up to resellers, but a $196k cold spread showed that there were more than enough tickets rotting on the secondary when the dust cleared for that game.\nCincinnati played three against the Cubs, and watched a secondary market where a 7% average of their stadium was listed for resale. Yet, the three game slate held a $30 APR \u2013 $13 GIP throughout the series, with the opening game of the series showing off a drastic cold spread of $113k against a $635k MCAP.\nThe original California baseball rivalry of the Los Angels Dodgers-San Francisco Giants at AT&T Park showed off a fair $5 million MCAP for the three games in the Bay. There were an abundant amount of tickets available, averaging 13% of stadium capacity, with over 16,000 listings available over the three game stretch for a $43 ARP \u2013 $17 GIP yield for resellers.\nThe Minnesota-Kansas City three game mix at Kauffman was a sour note for the secondary, yielding only a $21 ARP \u2013 $6 GIP over the entire slate. Over 7% of the stadium capacity was listed on the secondary, with resellers limping through the series to just break even.\nThe Washington-Miami three game series at Marlins Park offered up a great return for resellers, showing off a $46 ARP \u2013 $26 GIP against only 4,300+ listings on the market throughout the series. While the MCAP was held to just under $500k for the majority of the series, it still offered positive signs of demands out of the Miami area for the first time in a while.\nDespite not playing well on the field, The Milwaukee Brewers\u2019 7 game home stand proved that they can still play worse on the secondary. An average of around $18 ARP \u2013 $6 GIP throughout the entire series, even when playing two Central Division rivals, plummeted even further massive chunks of inventory were dropped on the secondary. The Saturday contest against the St. Louis Cardinals had 3,370 listings, 8% of the stadium capacity, which almost amounts to ticket dumping. This early in the season, to witness that, should be a concern for those handling the Brewers\u2019 secondary offerings.\nOnly three games at Citi Field for the New York Mets, facing the Atlanta Braves, gave a $37 ARP \u2013 $11 GIP. While not the best showing, only 4% of stadium capacity was listed throughout the series on average, buoying the results to be higher than expected.\nDespite having a massive stadium in O.co, The Oakland Athletics do things right when it comes to reselling tickets. The Houston Astros came in for three, but were shown a $34 ARP \u2013 $23 GIP throughout the series, as there was less than 3% on average listed on the secondary. With fewer tickets, it allows demand to stay higher end for resellers and the overall primary value, to retail their price points.\nLikewise, the Philadelphia Phillies 6 games against the Marlins and Braves only listed 3% on the secondary throughout the series. That yielded a $34 ARP \u2013 $16 GIP, but showed some signs of weakness as the MCAP never hit above $400k for any game during that period. There should be cause for concern in the fact that the MLP average was double the ARP, which was double the GIP. Meaning that brokers split down the middle with secondary buyers, basically causing a bidding war system which will likely start offering a race to the bottom as the summer grows closer.\nThe Pittsburgh Pirates played 4 against the Cubs in PNC Park, and on the secondary market, were letting buyers in at minor league ballpark prices. Only $16 ARP \u2013 $5 GIP throughout the four game slate, with over 8% of the stadium capacity listed throughout the series. The first two games of the series were suspect for ticket flooding, with a 4,192 SVG in Game 1 and a 3,388 SVG in Game 2. Regardless of whether the Penguins were in town for the playoffs or not, this shows signs of market weakness overall in how demand collapsed under the weight of so many listings at once.\nSeven games in Colorado for the Rockies, and the cold snap was shown in the GIP, where it averaged $9 or less for four of the 7 games. Overall, no GIP was higher than $12. The ARP hovered in the low-$20s throughout the seven-game home stand, growing higher as more listings came available once the weekend approached.\nThe San Diego Padres may have had only 3 games at Petco, but resellers nabbed a good one in the freeway series against the Los Angeles Dodgers. With a $57 ARP \u2013 $27 GIP against 4,700+ listings throughout the series, demand held tough as the secondary did its job in protecting a decent return for brokers.\nSafeco Field\u2019s listings are borderline problematic for the secondary, as witnessed in the 6 games that the Mariners hosted over the week. Three times, the listings averaged more than 2,900 per game, and each time, the ARP was less than $20 and the GIP was less than $8, twice dropped to $5.14. The secondary recovered when the Astros left town, despite being division leaders, and the Mariners welcomed in the Twins, who held show off a $33 ARP \u2013 $18 GIP throughout the three games of the six game home stand.\nBoston\u2019s visit to Tropicana Field ignited the resale market for Tampa Bay, where a $52 ARP \u2013 $28 GIP was shown off during the three games of the six game homestand. Less listings on the market drove demand higher, with less than average tickets on the market during each of the three games. As Toronto came into town, the secondary cooled only slightly, hitting $33 ARP \u2013 $17 GIP. Only 2% of the stadium capacity was listed on the secondary, a good wheelhouse for Tropicana Field, which held up demand and returns for those reselling.\nThe Detroit Tigers are in trouble, especially when it comes to the mammoth amount of listings thrown on the secondary during their 7-game home stand. First, with the Yankees, where each of the four game series averaged over 10% of capacity, with over 20,000 tickets on the secondary during that period. That\u2019s why the ARP hit only a $26 average, showing off a horrid GIP of $9, despite the Yankees coming to town. Cleveland\u2019s three game turn toward the weekend improved matters a little, but very little, as most of the inventory remained on the marketplace, and washed out any high-level returns from a Central Division rival.\nBaltimore\u2019s visit to Toronto at Rogers Centre saw an average of 1,900 listings for each of the three games. This weighed down the secondary overall, showing off a $21 ARP \u2013 $5.50 GIP.\nWhatever resellers thought that they were going to get out of the Washington Nationals\u2019 three game series at home against the St. Louis Cardinals, it didn\u2019t happen. Over 10% of stadium capacity helped drop the ARP significantly, as well as a $10 GIP that beckoned essentially ticket flooding. Over 16,000 listings were shown throughout the series on the secondary, way too much for market demand.\nThe Chicago White Sox held 7 games at U.S. Cellular Field, and showed off a horrid GIP throughout the entire home stand, less than $5 on average across the board. The fights on the field showed higher demand than those attempting to buy off the secondary to sit in the stands. Despite only having less than 5% capacity on the secondary, resellers found little demand and fewer takers for the two division rivalry games in the Windy City on the South Side.\nThe New York Mets visit to The New York Yankees three game slate in Yankee Stadium showed off a decent ARP \u2013 GIP, but obviously disappointed returns by comparison of what could have been. With such a close Subway Series, along with the Mets\u2019 10-game winning streak at the start of the home stand coming in, the ARP should have been much higher, especially for the amount of listings floated on the resale market.\nState Lawmakers Heat Up Secondary Ticket Wars",

        "title": "Meeting | Sprecher East Neighborhood Association",
        "raw_content": "This project, which will come before the Plan Commission on Monday, Sept. 15, starting at 5:30 p.m. in the Second Floor meeting room of the City-County Building at 210 Martin Luther King Dr. If you want to weigh in, support or opposed, attend the meeting to share your thoughts. The impact of a live person taking time to speak is a bit greater than an e-mail or letter. Again, if your comments are positive, negative or you just want to suggest a change to the general project, you are welcome to come.\nYou will see in the attached document there have been some changes - fewer units, movement in building layout and some design upgrades. The project has passed the Urban Design Commission, which only deals with \"the looks\" of a project, not whether or not it is approved regarding the land use.\nPlan Commission will review the project against the adopted neighborhood plan (reviewed at the meeting) and the review standards. If approved, it goes to the Common Council for approval. The project could be referred, meaning go back for some minor revisions, or placed or file or rejected, which usually means a wholesale redesign at either point.\nThis project meets the neighborhood plan objectives and likely the standards for review. You still have the opportunity to share your viewpoints, however. Please do!!\nThe following changes have been made to the proposed development plans for Lot 263 of Reston Heights. These changes have been made to accommodate the comments from the neighborhood meeting on June 11th, city planning staff or the Urban Design Commission:\nEntry Drive Location: The location of Dulles Drive was adjusted on the plan to show it in the proper location. The original site plan had used a Dulles Drive location from a preliminary plat drawing that was no longer accurate. The vehicular entry drive on Littlemore was also adjusted to maintain the alignment with Dulles Drive. The location of the eastern most driveway on to Littlemore was also adjusted. The driveway was moved west to provide a larger natural buffer yard to the east and to align with an existing driveway across the street.\nDensity: Both the number of buildings and the number of units reduced. There are now a total of five buildings and 158 dwelling units, a reduction from 164 units. The unit mix was also revised to included 10 two bedroom apartments with a den.\nParking areas and sidewalks: The parking and pavement has been further designed and detailed to subdivide the parking and interior driveway. Walkways have been relocated to maximize the usable open space. A walk now provides a direct route from the public sidewalk on Littlemore to the public pedestrian-bike trail to the south.\nClubhouse building: The designs for the clubhouse and pool area are now illustrated. (But, I can't load them here because they are too big.)\nThe functional portion of the re-zoning is to gain approval for 158 apt. units at 6901 Littlemore Dr. This lot is part of a much larger parcel, that was approved per the neighborhood plan some 10 or more years back, as a general development plan (GDP)for multi-family housing that encompassed four lots for building, roughly bounded by Wyalusing, from Littlemore to Stockbridge, with the Stockbridge piece proceeding almost to the beginning of the bend on Bluff Point. On Littlemore, the lot 6901 extends east to a woodlot, with single family homes on the other side of the woods.\nPart of the approval for 6901 involves shuffling approved numbers of units from one lot to another, technically changing the GDP. Some of the lots will never support the number of units initially approved at the GDP because of wetlands and other land issues. Since the numbers of units per lot on the approved GDP is changing, it needs a zoning amendment and a public hearing. Since there is also a Specific Implementation Plan (SIP) in this GDP for the apts. occurring now, it makes sense to do the alterations and the SIP, both called zoning changes, at one meeting.\nWhen the other lots develop, they will also come for a public hearing as they pursue approval for their own SIPs.\nMadison Parks Division staff will present plans for a new community park to serve the growing population on the east side of Madison. Door Creek Park is a 115-acre park, located east of the interstate, between Milwaukee Street and County Highway BB in the Door Creek Neighborhood. Door Creek Park is a large community park that has been in the planning and acquisition stage since 1990. The Master Plan for the park include both active and passive recreation typical for Madison\u2019s large parks: athletic fields, playgrounds, picnic areas and shelters, tennis and basketball courts, shore fishing, winter ice skating and ski trails, winter and summer trails both linking to Dane County\u2019s regional trail system.\nThe attached article appeared in the Wisconsin State Journal on Saturday, February 23, 2008.",

        "title": "Wild Bill Donovan: The Spymaster Who Created the OSS and Modern American Espionage - Spytales.com",
        "raw_content": "in Good Guys, Non-Fiction Books, Spies, Spy Books\nWild Bill Donovan: The Spymaster Who Created the OSS and Modern American Espionage by Douglas Waller\n\u201cEntertaining history\u2026Donovan was a combination of bold innovator and imprudent rule bender, which made him not only a remarkable wartime leader but also an extraordinary figure in American history\u201d (The New York Times Book Review).\nHe was one of America\u2019s most exciting and secretive generals\u2014the man Franklin Roosevelt made his top spy in World War II. A mythic figure whose legacy is still intensely debated, \u201cWild Bill\u201d Donovan was director of the Office of Strategic Services (the country\u2019s first national intelligence agency) and the father of today\u2019s CIA. Donovan introduced the nation to the dark arts of covert warfare on a scale it had never seen before. Now, veteran journalist Douglas Waller has mined government and private archives throughout the United States and England, drawn on thousands of pages of recently declassified documents, and interviewed scores of Donovan\u2019s relatives, friends, and associates to produce a riveting biography of one of the most powerful men in modern espionage.\nWilliam Joseph Donovan\u2019s life was packed with personal drama. The son of poor Irish Catholic parents, he married into Protestant wealth and fought heroically in World War I, where he earned the nickname \u201cWild Bill\u201d for his intense leadership and the Medal of Honor for his heroism. After the war he made millions as a Republican lawyer on Wall Street until FDR, a Democrat, tapped him to be his strategic intelligence chief. A charismatic leader, Donovan was revered by his secret agents. Yet at times he was reckless\u2014risking his life unnecessarily in war zones, engaging in extramarital affairs that became fodder for his political enemies\u2014and he endured heartbreaking tragedy when family members died at young ages.\nWild Bill Donovan reads like an action-packed spy thriller, with stories of daring young men and women in his OSS sneaking behind enemy lines for sabotage, breaking into Washington embassies to steal secrets, plotting to topple Adolf Hitler, and suffering brutal torture or death when they were captured by the Gestapo. It is also a tale of political intrigue, of infighting at the highest levels of government, of powerful men pitted against one another. Donovan fought enemies at home as often as the Axis abroad. Generals in the Pentagon plotted against him.\nJ. Edgar Hoover had FBI agents dig up dirt on him. Donovan stole secrets from the Soviets before the dawn of the Cold War and had intense battles with Winston Churchill and British spy chiefs over foreign turf. Separating fact from fiction, Waller investigates the successes and the occasional spectacular failures of Donovan\u2019s intelligence career.\nIt makes for a gripping and revealing portrait of this most controversial spymaster.\nRead more at: Wild Bill Donovan: The Spymaster Who Created the OSS and Modern American Espionage\nOSSWilliam Donovan\nPrevious article Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy: A George Smiley Novel\nNext article Disciples: The World War II Missions of the CIA Directors Who Fought for Wild Bill Donovan\nTinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy: A George Smiley Novel",

        "raw_content": "$20m for high-quality respite care for Queenslanders with dementia\nThe Palaszczuk Government is providing $20 million in funding to community-based organisations to provide respite care for Queenslanders living with dementia or neurodegenerative conditions.\nSeven community-based organisations with services from Toowoomba to Mareeba will receive funding overthree years to extend respite service hours and deliver tailored care and client activities.\nPremier Annastacia Palaszczuk said the funding delivered on yet another election commitment to support Queensland seniors and to address the needs of carers.\n\u201cRespite care is an essential part of caring for people with dementia,\u201d she said.\n\u201cIt offers the carer a well-deserved break from their caring responsibilities while providing valuable and meaningful activities for the person receiving care.\n\u201cOur Government recognises the need for carers to be able to access extended hours of respite, because extrarespite frees up our thousands of carers so they can work, volunteer, or train to boost their skills and employment prospects.\n\u201cThis funding not only supports carers by helping them balance their caring responsibilities, it supports Queensland as a whole by giving these people an opportunity to enhance their economic and social participation in our communities.\u201d\nMinister for Health and Ambulance Services Cameron Dick said the seven funded organisations specialised in respite care and could tailor the respite to the needs of both the client and their carer.\n\u201cThis care allows clients to participate in a program designed around their needs while reassuring their carer that when they can\u2019t be with them, their loved one is in a safe and supportive environment,\u201d he said.\n\u201cMany carers provide support to people living with dementia or neurodegenerative conditions and in some cases this is a 24-hour-a-day, seven-day-a-week task.\n\u201cIt\u2019s crucial that we have the support and services available to give these deserving individuals a break from their caregiving roles and responsibilities.\n\u201cThis funding not only allows for an extra 270,000 hours of dementia respite care through services across Queensland every year, it also funds special assistance to prepare a dementia client for respite care and settle them on their return home.\u201d\nMr Dick said there could be up to 75,650 Queenslanders living with dementia by 2019. It is also estimated that there could be up to 104,000 new cases of dementia in Queensland over the next four years.\nMinister for Seniors Coralee O\u2019Rourke welcomed more flexible respite services becoming available for older people with dementia and their carers.\n\u201cAs our population ages, dementia will have a growing impact on individuals, families, the community and carers,\u201d she said.\n\u201cIt is important that we recognise the vital role carers play in supporting these individuals, because anyone at any time could become a carer for a family member or friend.\u201d\nThe Queensland Government already allocates more than $5 million each year to service providers across Queensland to provide older carers with respite and future planning services, with this latest funding further supporting that commitment.\nThe following non-government organisations have been granted funding to deliver additional respite services throughout Queensland:\nAlzheimer\u2019s Association of Queensland - $2.7 million for services in Ipswich\nAnglicare Southern Queensland - $3.2 million for services in Toowoomba, Bundaberg, Roma, Townsville, Taigum and Cleveland\nCentacare Community Services - $5.2 million for services in Kingaroy, Hervey Bay, Enoggera, Coorparoo, Jambaroo Heights and Gympie\nMulticultural Communities Council Gold Coast t/a CURA Community Services - $1.3 million for services in Ashmore City\nOzcare - $3.3 million for services in Burleigh Heads, Clontarf and Gulliver\nSouth Burnett Senior Citizens Welfare Association Inc - $1 million for services in Kingaroy, Nanango Yarraman and Wondai\nSt John\u2019s Community Care Limited - $3.2 million for services in Gordonvale, Innisfail, Mareeba and Redlynch\nMEDIA CONTACT:\u200b\u200bAnika Hume 0439 253 815",

        "raw_content": "PHD Statistics, Biomedical Research, Korean\nMy fascination with Statistics came with the early realization that the applications are almost limitless in that they have the potential to beneficially affect almost every area of people\u2019s lives and with it came the deep desire to become an expert and teacher in this field of study and my application is made with that aim in mind.\nI seek to equip myself with the additional skills and knowledge which the program will provide, along with post-graduation professional experience, to fulfil my ultimate ambition which is to obtain a teaching/research post. As a teacher, I will do my best to equip and inspire the next generation of statisticians to enable them make a real and beneficial difference in the world and also to acquire and to apply the \u2018artistic\u2019 skills of intuition and subtle interpretation to supplement the scientific models and techniques that they will employ. My special area of interest is in public health and biomedical research, particularly in the design and analysis of large and complex data, primarily in the context of epidemiological studies. I also aim to contribute to consulting and collaborative research in various other related fields in my future career.\nSince beginning my studies, I have also become aware of the vital importance of statisticians maintaining independence and objectivity so that their skills are not used as a tool to \u2018prove\u2019 that what is untrue is \u2018true\u2019 or vice versa and that this ethical component is of great significance where there may be entrenched or even corrupt pressures for a pre-decided outcome. These considerations are perhaps particularly relevant in the medical applications that are of special interest to me.\nI pursued a Master\u2019s degree in Biostatistics at XXXU during which time I acquired and developed the various skills and knowledge and acquired the research experience that, I am confident, provide a firm basis for further studies and research at the highest level. I have a strong academic record in mathematics, statistics, calculus, probability theory and regression together with familiarity with statistics package programs such as SAS, STATA, SPSS and JMP as well as R software programs. In terms of my research experience, I had the good fortune to work at the XXXX Biology & Cell Signaling Laboratory at XXXU under the guidance of Dr. XXXX in my work in an ongoing study entitled \u2018Aging Associated Cardiac Remodeling\u2019.\nI have also been fortunate in having been given the opportunity to gain experience in a wide variety of professional settings and have taken full advantage of them to apply theories in a variety of \u2018real world\u2019 situations and applications. I have been encouraged, mentored and taught by highly qualified and enthusiastic professionals.\nAlong with technical knowledge and skills, I have always sought to develop the \u2018soft skills\u2019 relevant to the profession, especially being someone who hopes to teach, lead and inspire students. I understand that a truly effective professional in this field must anyway be able to relate well to others to encourage cooperation, collaboration and the sharing of insight and opinion which is vital to it. Fortunately, I have the natural characteristics that help me to relate easily to others. I have happily studied, worked and socialized with people from many social and ethnic backgrounds. I am of Korean origin and I enjoy sharing knowledge of my culture and learning about others. In addition to Korean and English, I speak Mandarin which I studied formally at undergraduate level. I have also been exposed to various cultures in fairly wide travel in Asia and Europe.\nI regard XXU as my academic \u2018home\u2019; I benefited enormously from the great breadth of experience and areas of expertise of a prestigious faculty and the constantly challenging but supportive atmosphere in the department. It is my aim to further the department\u2019s and the university\u2019s reputation for academic excellence. I am aware that the doctorate program will attract other very well qualified applicants but I genuinely believe that I can add significant value based upon a very successful academic career, research experience, wide work experience, intellectual curiosity and, perhaps most importantly, a genuine passion for this field of study and its development. I can assure the reader of highly enthusiastic, committed and diligent participation in the program, if selected.",

        "raw_content": "Home/Brave People, Uncategorized/Stigma Fighters: Dennis Sharpe \u2013 A Letter to My High School Self\nMy Amazing friend Ryan Omega put together a book called \u201cLetters To My High School Self\u201d. He requested that I contribute to it, and my initial reaction was that since I really didn\u2019t attend High School (I had dropped out, had a child, was married, and working two or three jobs at a time during my \u201cHigh School\u201d years), that perhaps I wasn\u2019t right for the project. He was nothing but supportive and told me that I should simply write a letter to myself at age 17 \u2013 at that particular point in my life. So I did. I expected that he wouldn\u2019t like it, and that there would be kind words, and ultimately a dismissal of my letter and involvement from the project. I was wrong. He included it.\nThe book was released on November 29, 2014 and is wonderful, in my opinion, and can be found here on lulu: http://www.lulu.com/shop/ryan-omega/letters-to-my-high-school-self/paperback/product-21925392.html\nStop it. Seriously. Just stop it.\nStop distancing yourself form the world. Stop keeping people at arm\u2019s length. Stop blaming yourself for things that aren\u2019t your fault. Stop beating yourself up for things you\u2019ve done that have, due to your ignorance or lack of thought, hurt other people. Stop punishing yourself.\nI mean it. It\u2019s true. I know that you\u2019ll agree with me. But we both know that\u2019s only on the surface. Deep down you know that you sabotage everything in your life that will be good for you, that makes you feel good or worthwhile, or that could make others happier with you. I know this because I know you, and I also know that as much as you think you know you\u2026 you\u2019re wrong.\nMost of your life has been spent running, and I know that if you don\u2019t stop it now you will still be running ten years from now.\nYou ran from your home because you saw your dad do it. You\u2019ve turned on almost anyone who saw you as worthwhile, because you didn\u2019t believe you were. You got married at fifteen and had a kid with a woman who didn\u2019t even like, let alone respect you. She used you, like her mother had told her to, to get a baby and to make another guy jealous. You don\u2019t know all the particulars yet, but you will.\nGet your kid. Get a lawyer, and get him\u2026 save him.\nYou\u2019re scared of her, and her mother, and the threats they\u2019ve made. I know. You\u2019re scared of the guys they sent to your family\u2019s houses with guns, making threats. You\u2019re going to have to face it head on eventually, and sooner is better than later\u2026 even if you don\u2019t see that now.\nYou\u2019ve let yourself get pushed down and accepted abuse for too long. You need to know that you do matter. I\u2019m not saying that you are the end-all-be-all or anything\u2026 I\u2019m simply telling you that you deserve better. You have value, more than what others can take from you or con out of you.\nWhen you were held down, and had your introduction to sexual abuse. That wasn\u2019t your fault. Stop blaming yourself. He was your family, and was trusted with you. It wasn\u2019t the fault of the people who left you with him\u2026 stop lashing out. It wasn\u2019t your fault either\u2026 stop punishing yourself. Get help, man. Seriously. I know it sounds awful, and difficult, and painful\u2026 but like I said before, it\u2019s going to happen eventually. Face it. Do it. Stop living in pain.\nYou are only seventeen. You have a lot of life ahead of you. Don\u2019t waste year after year burying pain, running from yourself, and destroying anything that makes your life better.\nAddress the men who abused you. Face the women who used you, and ultimately will damage your son. Stop punishing yourself and let go of it all.\nWork toward positive ends. You\u2019ll be back in college eventually\u2026 why not do it now? You dropped out halfway through your freshman year of high school, but you had good grades. You are not stupid. Use your brain. You are only hurting you be staying uneducated. You are keeping yourself low, and you do now \u2013 DO NOT \u2013 deserve it.\nProfessional help, education, self-examination (not destruction) these are the keys to not letting your life go down a road that you will forever try to undo\u2026 to fix\u2026 to take back. Do it now.\nStop. I mean it. I can\u2019t be more blunt with you. I\u2019ve given you the specifics you should need to know that I know you. Trust me when I tell you that I seriously know you\u2026 where you are now\u2026 who you are now\u2026 better than you. I know what you haven\u2019t been able to accept. Stop hurting yourself and those around you, and take ownership of your future.\nLife is going to keep going. Trust me when I tell you that, as hard as it may look to right now, it will be so much worse if you just let it happen to you. Take control.\nYour writing? Your stories? Your ideas? Keep them. Shoot yourself in that direction and don\u2019t give up. Don\u2019t let anyone shake you from it. You\u2019ll eventually understand that these are the things that will make you the happiest. Don\u2019t let go of them\u2026 any of them.\nYou will see success, even if you don\u2019t do what I\u2019m telling you to do, but you could do so much more if you don\u2019t waste so much time. The light at the end of the tunnel can be your so much sooner. Your words will travel around the world. Don\u2019t laugh. I mean it.\nThere will be joy. I\u2019ve had it. I only wish I\u2019d known that I deserved it\u2026 that you deserved it sooner \u2013 that I\u2019d known it where you are now. If you do what I\u2019m telling you, it won\u2019t make everything perfect\u2026 you will still have ups and downs\u2026 but it will make you happier and more fulfilled sooner.\nI\u2019ve seen what will happen if you don\u2019t do what I\u2019m telling you hear. I know the pain, the failure, the homeless times and divorce, the times you will lose everything you own, the depression, the muggings, the beating, the times you\u2019ll spend locked up\u2026 and more painful things than these\u2026 that are waiting for you.

S. (03/03/2014 \u2013 1 week before 37th birthday)\n\u2014Letter to myself (03/03/1995 \u2013 1 week before my 18th birthday)\u2014\nBorn and raised in the middle of the American Midwest, Dennis Sharpe has been a writer as long as he can remember. His mother has told many people about the fantasy and science fiction stories he\u2019d write on scraps of paper, and staple together as his \u2018books\u2019, before he\u2019d attended his first day of formal education.\nHe has spent many late nights at diners and dives, drinking coffee with a tattered notebook to put a voice to his feelings of himself and the world around him, and other worlds that can exist only in fiction. The voices in his head don\u2019t ever stop talking to him, and so sooner or later he has to get out onto a page all that they\u2019ve filled him up with.\nInspired by Neil Gaiman, Kurt Vonnegut, Frank Miller, Chrissie Pappas, Charles Bukowski, Stephen King, Issac Asimov, and countless classic literary influences, Dennis continues with the ability to write what at a glance might seem absurd, but quickly begins to resonate with our own thoughts and emotions. He writes people we know, love we\u2019ve known and lost (and found again), and places we\u2019ve been in our lives and in our heads. Even his fictional characters and worlds carry enough of the grey areas we experience in day-to-day life, to let us find the truth in his words, no matter how fantastic.\nThese days he can be found still writing, drinking coffee with friends, or spending time with his children (the true joys of his life), in Western Kentucky.\nTwitter: https://twitter.com/Witlesslackey\nBooks: http://www.amazon.com/Dennis-Sharpe/e/B003TC0TYI/\nSarah C January 29, 2015 at 2:19 am - Reply\nMy husband and I often talk about what we would do if we could go back and meet our younger selves. He has often said that he would counsel the younger version of himself to be braver \u2014 date that girl! Take that ride! \u2014 or to waste less time on trivial pursuits. I think that if I met a younger version of myself, I would respond much like you have here.\nIf I were to write a letter like yours, I would want to counsel that poor girl. Tell her it\u2019s going to be all right in the end, but to wake up, because life is happening right now, whether you like it or not. I\u2019d want to explain to her that she is worthy, she is enough. I would provide to her the love and guidance of a caring adult that was lacking in her life, and perhaps preemptively strike the loathsome behaviors that continue to complicate my life.\nThanks for sharing your letter.",

        "title": "Reality, one bite at a time: The Persian Puzzle II: What the IAEA really found in Iran",
        "raw_content": "The Persian Puzzle II: What the IAEA really found in Iran\nThe best way for the world to satisfy itself that there are no undeclared nuclear activities in Iran is for the IAEA to use its inspection rights under the Additional Protocol.\nTHE PERSIAN PUZZLE - II\nWhat the IAEA really found in Iran\nTHE REPORT Mohammed El-Baradei presented to the International Atomic Energy Agency Board of Governors on September 2, 2005 represents the most recent assessment of Iran's nuclear programme made by the watchdog body. In this report, the Director-General sought to quantify the progress made in dealing with a number of adverse findings first brought to the Board's notice on November 15, 2004.\nThose findings involved six instances of Iran's \"failure to report\" certain nuclear activities, mostly concerning enrichment and laser experimentation and including the import of uranium from China in 1991; two instances of \"failure to declare\" enrichment facilities; six instances of \"failure to provide design information or updated design information\" for certain facilities, and a general charge of \"failure on many occasions to cooperate to facilitate the implementation of safeguards, as evidenced by extensive concealment activities.\"\nDr. El-Baradei then noted that Iran had taken a number of corrective actions as a result of which \"the Agency was able by November 2004 to confirm certain aspects of Iran's declarations [related to conversion activities and laser enrichment], which ... would be followed up as matters of routine safeguards implementation.\" This was a major statement by the IAEA because, in effect, it was saying that much of the \"concealment\" the Iranians are accused of resorting to in the past had been effectively neutralised and was no longer a source of extra concern for the Agency.\nIf the IAEA was still not in a position to declare that Iran had no undeclared nuclear material and undeclared enrichment activities, this was for two sets of reasons. First, it was still assessing Iran's explanations for questions raised by it about the Gchine uranium mines and two long-since abandoned research projects into polonium (Po-210) and plutonium separation. Secondly, questions still remained on two important fronts. In the course of its visits to the not-yet-operational Pilot Fuel Enrichment Plant at Natanz and the Kalaye Electric Company in 2004, the IAEA had found trace amounts of highly enriched uranium (HEU) and low enriched uranium (LEU), giving rise to concerns that Iran had already begun enriching uranium \u2014 presumably at an undisclosed third location. The Iranians denied producing the HEU and LEU but the IAEA needed to satisfy itself. Moreover, the Agency felt it had yet to learn the full extent of Iranian research work on the P-2 gas centrifuge, the designs for which had been procured from the A.Q. Khan clandestine network.\nAfter analysis of swipe samples, IAEA experts now say the HEU was Pakistani and presumably came to be in Natanz because imported centrifuge components were contaminated. The origin of the LEU contamination has yet to be established but there are some indications it is of Russian provenance. As for the centrifuges themselves, the IAEA wants more documentation to convince itself that Iran is telling the truth about not pursuing any work on the P-2 design between 1995, when it first acquired the technology, and 2002, when it made modifications necessary for composite rotors. This, then, is the main outstanding question Iran needs to answer.\nNo threat to peace\nNot only is Iran's failure in this regard far less dramatic than the American accusations of a \"clandestine weapons programme\" and of \"deception,\" it also cannot conceivably be called a threat to international peace and security. Yes, the IAEA has yet to conclude there are no undeclared nuclear materials or activities in Iran. But, as Dr. El-Baradei himself noted in his September 2 report, \"the process of drawing such a conclusion, after an Additional Protocol is in force, under normal circumstances, is a time consuming process.\" Since the Agency believes Iran has had a \"past pattern of concealment,\" this conclusion \"can be expected to take longer than in normal circumstances.\"\nIn effect, Dr. El-Baradei was saying that the IAEA's inspectors should be allowed to do their work. For this, \"Iran's full transparency is indispensable and overdue.\" What he did not \u2014 and could not \u2014 say was that the inspections process should not be short-circuited or politicised by interested parties. A case in point is the polonium-beryllium controversy, which Washington had hoped would emerge as Iran's proverbial smoking gun.\nWhen asked about bismuth irradiation experiments it had conducted at the Teheran Research Reactor (TRR) between 1989 and 1993 to extract polonium, Iran pointed out that it had not been required to inform the IAEA under the safeguards agreement and that \"in any case, details of the experiments were in the logbook of the TRR reactor, which has been safeguarded for 30 years.\" Polonium has many civilian applications but also plays a role, when combined with beryllium, as a neutron initiator in some nuclear weapon designs. Seizing on this, the U.S. insisted Iran had imported beryllium as well. When the IAEA investigated this and ruled out any such imports, U.S. officials planted stories about how Dr. El-Baradei had \"succumbed to Iranian pressure.\" These stories were then used to build a campaign to deny him another term as Director-General, a campaign which ultimately failed.\nRegardless of U.S. motivations, however, Iran, at the end of the day still has a responsibility to demonstrate to the world that it is in full compliance with its safeguards obligations. And the world has the right to satisfy itself that Iran is not planning to make nuclear weapons. Earlier this year, Bruno Pellaud, former IAEA Deputy Director-General for safeguards, was asked by Swissinfo whether Iran was intent on building a nuclear bomb. \"My impression is not,\" he replied, adding that \"the IAEA says there is no evidence of a weapons programme.\" Dr. Pellaud then posed a rhetorical question \u2014 Is this naivet\u00e9? \u2014 and elaborated on his assessment: \"My view is based on the fact that Iran took a major gamble in December 2003 by allowing a much more intrusive capability to the IAEA. If Iran had had a military programme they would not have allowed the IAEA to come under this Additional Protocol. They did not have to.\"\nAs matters stand, the only major unexplained issue is the extent of Iran's research work on the P-2 centrifuge. Even if the Agency's worst fears are true \u2014 that Iran actually worked on the P-2 design during that time \u2014 this matters only if that knowledge was used to set up another enrichment facility somewhere else in the country. Though this is unlikely, especially given the rather modest achievements on display at Natanz (which itself was supposed to be a \"concealed\" facility), the Additional Protocol gives the IAEA a broad licence to inspect any facility it wishes. Using those powers \u2014 and relying on intelligence inputs from the U.S. \u2014 Agency inspectors recently visited military sites at Kolahdouz, Lavisan, and Parchin. Nothing was found. If a secret enrichment plant exists, the enforcement of Iran's safeguards and inspection obligations is a far better way to unearth it than the threat of sanctions.\nI appreciate your serious consideration of the issues.\nHowever, you fail to note the institutional failure of IAEA voting by \"majority\" to make a determination that should be in principle a matter of objective determination:\nIs country-x in compliance or not.\nIAEA is not a 'democratic' body to reach decisions regarding inherently ambiguous matters that require injection of 'opinion' afforded by the democratic process.\nThe world is clearly unjust, yet we continue to delude ourselves with high-sounding institutions which REPEATEDLY have shown themselves as enablers of the neo-neo-colonial policy of its founders, through blatant and shameless support it provides for the killing and destruction that the Anglo-European people clearly can not leave behind as a most shameful episode in their past.\nThe puzzle is NOT in Iran.\nThe puzzle is WHY any nation not yet under the 'effective' control of this global cabal would want a continuation of this state of affairs.\nIran?...A country so far behind in Technology...that they couldnt even manufacture a Car...build a Modern Home...yet they tell the world they want to Enrich Uranium for Nuclear Power....You might have your Terroist Regrimes believing this BS...but not the Free World...I've Lived in Tehran,Iran and know you all Lie and Decieve under the pretense of Allah.\nI just cant believe such idiots exists. I live in iran and i know \"we are not far behind in technology\". Right now we are manufacturing at least 20 different models of cars with at least 5 automobile companies. If you come to tehran and check out the towers and skyscrapers you would see that we can build a modern home. Our armed forces are one of the most self sufficent in the middle east with the ability to build missiles and fighter jets. In medical aspects we are one of the few countries that are cloning animals. We are doing designing sattelites. And yeah we want nuclear technology and we will get it, it wont be long before our oil reserves run out, what should we do then come and beg you... what the west fears from iran is not a nuke bomb. Its the hatred they have towards muslims especially shias that makes them have this attitude towards us....\nLet us say that Iran needs nuclear technology for peaceful purposes. Can you explain why Iran (by it's own admission) develops long range ballistic missiles (shihab 3A/3B/4)? These missiles are not accurate enough to hit most military targets and are therefore useful only with non-conventional warheads. Are you seriously saying that Iran develops nuclear capabilities and the means to launch nuclear warheads to Israel and Europe, but has no intention of combining them??",

He\u2019d dressed himself in khakis and a button-down for the closing night of this program for adults with Down syndrome, and it wasn\u2019t long before he joined in the sing-along to Meghan Trainor and the soul train to Katy Perry.\n\u201cMy favorite part is the music, dancing and karaoke,\u201d Thompson, 28, says.\nThe party wrapped up the sixth annual weekend in D.C. organized by LiveUp Programs, a nonprofit co-founded and run by Terps to support adults with Down syndrome. Other programs this year took place in New York City, Philadelphia, Boston and San Diego, with outings such as baseball games, cooking classes, museum tours, sailing and an acting workshops. In addition, each weekend includes a give-back component where the group volunteers together.\nJenna Aidikoff \u201909, whose younger sister, Lauren, has Down syndrome, came up with the concept while volunteering as a UMD student with the national nonprofit Camp PALS, which offers overnight camps for young adults with Down syndrome.\nShe realized that as people like Lauren grow older, the chances for structured social outings declined. That got her and fellow PALS volunteers thinking.\n\u201cAfter age 21, you\u2019re no longer supported in the school system and your number of opportunities significantly drop off,\u201d Aidikoff says. \u201c[We] thought about what we liked with the young adult model and how wanted to make it more of an adult experience.\u201d\nMore than 400,000 people in the U.S. have Down syndrome, and their life expectancy has risen steadily from 25 in 1983 to 60 in 2016, according to the National Down Syndrome Society. Many are waiting to be placed in a group home, or don\u2019t have full- or even part-time jobs, often causing them to suffer from isolation.\nAidikoff and fellow co-founders Brian Atlas and Josh Stein set out to create a weekend-long program in D.C. in 2011 to provide a safe venue for people in the community to be themselves, learn something new, build confidence and independence, and have fun.\nThat inaugural event drew 16 participants, which has grown to 95 this year across the five programs, along with 200 volunteers, including mentors, medical staff, a finance team and videographers.\nAidikoff\u2019s sister Kerri \u201912 is a director of the Philadelphia program, and sisters Allie Weiss \u201909 and Jaime Weiss \u201912 are directors of the New York version. Eight other Terps serve as volunteers.\nParticipants pay tuition between $675 and $800, and the program fundraises to cover the full costs of their experience as well as that of the volunteer mentors\u2019.\nThis year the D.C. participants visited the Maryland Renaissance Festival and explored the museums along the National Mall, in addition to dinner and dancing at the Tavern at Fire Station 1. Plus, the pairs of mentors and participants were given an allotted amount of money to buy items for kits to be donated to a homeless shelter, giving the participants a chance to practice life skills and gain a better understanding of the real world, says Emily Weinberger, one of the city\u2019s three directors.\n\u201cWhat separates LiveUp (is) we do try to get immersed in the community,\u201d Weinberger says. \u201cYou\u2019re not just taking a bunch of adults with Down syndrome bowling, you\u2019re doing things with regular people.\u201d\nEmily Weinberger\nThanks for a great write-up Charlie! It\u2019s hard to capture the magic of Live Up in one article, but you did a phenomenal job! Thank you for spreading our mission and Go Terps!",

        "title": "The Codist: Programmers Are from Mars, Project Managers Are Sometimes from Hell",
        "raw_content": "Programmers Are from Mars, Project Managers Are Sometimes from Hell\nOne of the common characters in most software development shops is the \"Project Manager\", whose job is to oversee the various phases of a project, from requirements gathering to hopefully shipping the result on time and on budget. Sadly few of the projects managers I have worked with had any actually clue on how to do any of these things.\nIn many shops the project manager is not a former developer but more likely someone who moved up from other positions. At my favorite employer (well documented in several sad but entertaining posts here) three of the main project managers were (1) a former forest ranger (2) a former Ma\u00c3\u00aetre d (3) a customer. These three were given a large amounts of authority and despite a long history of failure to deliver continued to gather glowing reviews from upper management. Perhaps this was an indication of the woes of upper company management, but you would think that delivering projects months and even years late and costing the company reams of money due to poor decision making would be a cause for some kind of change. The actual criteria for success seemed to be attention to the company's ever-changing formal methodology, not any actual project deliveries.\nIt never hurt to blame the developers, the customers, the consultants, the vendors and probably the man on the moon. Sometimes these are valid complaints but like the boy who cried wolf after a while it begins to sound like the problem is the project manager. The PM's had virtually absolute authority over all project details including technology decisions.\nSo what is a good project manager? First of all, I prefer the term \"Project Facilitator\". Larger projects especially need a lot of communication between all the developers, customers, operations, QA and management with a stake in the project. Someone needs to manage that communication, to ensure that everyone knows what they need to know and when, and track project details, schedules, estimates and progress.\nOften upper management seems to prefer the concept \"Project Czar\", an omnipotent person controlling all aspects of the project, and thus guaranteeing success. In practice this type of dictatorship rarely works unless the PM is truly talented and experienced in all areas of the project. It can happen but none of the PM's I have worked with or for ever had that level of competence. The perfect ideal of a political leader is the benign dictator but that never works out either.\nIn the end someone does have to be in charge, democracies are great ideas but usually give way to republics (representatives of the people are given authority to act in their stead). Where do you draw the line in a software project? I've always preferred having people with actual experience make decisions in their areas (eg architects making technology decisions, business managers managing customer interactions, etc). Sometimes you can find people who are capable in multiple areas and they can take on multiple roles (I've done this a number of times).\nIf you talk with project managers, the most common thing you hear is \"it doesn't matter that I know nothing about the technologies involved in the project, managing people is what's important\". Usually you only hear that if they really don't know anything about the technology. Sometimes they don't even know how to manage people, especially the occasionally complicated programmer. In the business of developing software projects you really need to know and understand both people and technology. If you make technology decisions without a clue, the best team in the world won't be able to produce; likewise if you know the technology so well you could have invented it, but build and manage the team without a clue, you will still fail. I've seen developers-turned-managers fail as often as tech-clueless-managers.\nLike any speciality in our programming world, the project manager (or again as I prefer project facilitator) cannot simply be promoted from some random position. Would you hire a programmer to write code with no coding background? Prospective project managers really need to be exposed to all facets of projects, from analysis of customer needs to technology selection to architecture (at least at some level) to some basic understanding of what programmers do. Once they have been involved in these various activities for some time, only then they should be allowed to facilitate entire projects.\nI have been in places where there were no project managers as well, and with no central decision maker. This rarely works either unless the teams are truly talented. If the projects wind up disorganized and fail to be delivered then it should become obvious that you really need someone to manage them. I think companies often start off with no managers and then wind up going to far to dictatorial management.\nThe best projects managers I have worked with (not many but they stood out) were organized, understood the technologies or at least spent time learning them, communicated well with everyone, and especially spent more time listening than talking. The whole point is to make the project itself move from inception to delivery smoothly with a minimum of trouble. Even in a dysfunctional organization, if someone can actually deliver success despite the challenges while avoiding needless conflict with everyone involved, then you have found the ideal PM. One of the less experienced PM's at my favorite company (in this case a former Marine) did an awesome job in every project he managed but refused to play the political games the other PM's played or sugarcoat complex issues so he remained low man on the PM totem pole. I would work on any project he managed again but I had zero respect for the others.\nSoftware development projects are usually hard, there is no denying that. If you use good technologies, assemble a good team of engineers (development and QA), use a flexible methodology, work with helpful and involved customers, and then have a solid project manager facilitate the process, whatever you are doing is likely to succeed.\nOne can dream, anyway.",

I think it\u2019s because I loathe him as a human being and because negative stories about him support my internal narrative. In this, I think, I am far from alone. Before I go on, I would like to say that I know several intelligent and kind people who are Trump supporters. To blindly assign negative labels to all his supporters is unfair. I\u2019ve found, for the people I know anyway, that their support is more a reflection of their frustration with the economy and perceived corruption in Washington than any crazy alt-right ideology. But I digress. While following stories on Trump, I began to notice curious similarities in his environmental policies and our own government\u2019s here in Newfoundland and Labrador. To be honest, this didn\u2019t surprise me at all.

        "title": "Jubilee from Versailles | The Know Nothing Nerd",
        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Archived \u00bb Jubilee from Versailles\nJubilee from Versailles\nPosted by Yorke on Feb 24, 2010 in Archived | Comments Off\nSomehow I missed the release of Versailles\u2019 newest album by about two weeks. Since I have picked it up, I have been listening to it almost non-stop. It is the first major-label album released by Versailles since they signed with Warner Music Japan. Due to some copyright jumbo, the group is know as Versailles Philharmonic Quintet in the U.S. of A. If you see promotional photos for the album with only 4 members, it is not another misuse of English by a Japanese band.\nThe band\u2019s bassist, Jasmine You, fell ill in August and later died from his illness while hospitalized. The band took a short break, and the release of the album was pushed back. After returning from their break, guitarist Hizaki picked up the bass recording to finish up their album. Their first single released since his passing, \u201cSerenade\u201d is quite obviously a tribute to the late Jasmine. Translated from the Japanese the lyrics include images of \u201csleepless nights wanting to see you; You were the bright light in the night\u2019s tear clad sky.\u201d You get the idea. With the melancholy tone, the piano, and the orchestra this ballad really brought me back to some of the ballad\u2019s Yoshiki wrote for X-Japan. (Keep scrolling down after the video.)\nDon't be fooled!! There are no girls in this band!\nThe talent from this band does not cease to amaze either with this new album. I feel that while overall it is not as heavy as Noble, Jubilee shows that Versailles can do more than just hard rock and metal. The song \u201cAmorphous\u201d shows that they can produce an excellent song that could be heard on any popular music station in Japan, or perhaps the song\u2019s intro for some commercial\u2019s BGM.\nA song like this is something the visual kei scene really needs in Japan. Since the first split of X-Japan, the death of hide and Luna Sea calling it quits, the visual genre has been in a state of decline in the mainstream market here in Japan. A more pop friendly song is just what is needed to pull people back into visual kei and the awesomeness that it has to offer.\nEven though there are some lighter tracks on this album (\u201cReminiscence\u201d makes me want to sail the ocean for some reason) there are still the heavier tracks. My personal favorite is \u201cGekkakou\u201d which means Tuberose. To me this song has the heavier tone that we know from their past releases. It could be because this was one of the first tracks recorded after signing with Warner and before Jasmine\u2019s departure. In fact it was included as a B-side to last summer\u2019s single release of \u201cAscendead Master.\u201d All in all this album doesn\u2019t disappoint. It has a little bit for everyone. If \u201cReminiscence\u201d doesn\u2019t put you in a good mood then you are probably lame. Peace out, and enjoy the tunes.",

Let sleeping dogs lie.\nOn another tact, the Russians could simply ask why, when countless millions were being murdered and repressed, the West repeatedly turned a blind-eye? (and Western intellectuals praised the Revolution without qualm). Wouldn\u2019t this truthful approach be much simpler than flagrantly re-writing history \u2014one would think that it would be. If only, it were not the case, that self-serving indifference to the inhuman suffering and destruction of Soviet times, has eaten like a worm into the heart \u2014 and that this indifference now becomes a convenient political slogan once again.\nI do not criticize the Russians, truth is painful; and why start telling the truth now? Why start now, when you will be the only one with tears in your eyes \u2014 and why give open-invitation, to your enemies, when they mock you already.\nExcellent video monologue by Ostashko. Ever thankful to Eugenia for her translation and sub-titles. What a gift she presents each time for the Vineyard. A true friend of Saker\u2019s Vineyard!\nAs for repentance, it is the merciless destruction of Russia, programmed by the Fifth Column traitors, Liberals and weak-minded.\nThe aim is the self-immolation of Russian civilization, culture, education and societal unity.\nIt is energized with money from the West, and the satanic pursuit of the destruction of Orthodox Christianity with the earthly goal of breaking up the nation and stealing its mineral resources.\nIt isn\u2019t even ideological any longer. It is hatred and greed at a scope never before seen in human history.\nsiljan on November 14, 2018 \u00b7 at 2:53 pm EST/EDT\nHere is a good article by Israel Shamir on the same subject;\nhttps://www.unz.com/ishamir/red-zog/\nThe more you learn about USSR history, you start realizing that there were most likely more innocent Russian people dying during the Yeltsin years than the Stalin Years.\nNeedles to say this goes against everything I\u2019ve been taught to believe all my life. The 6 million and the 60 million seem to be sacred numbers that you are not supposed to question.\nThanks for translating this video.\nYuri on November 14, 2018 \u00b7 at 3:08 pm EST/EDT\nMy maternal and paternal grandfathers, aged in their fifties, as well as my paternal great-grandfather, in his 75th year were sentenced to10 years imprisonment in Siberia for alleged \u201ccounter-revolutionary activities.\u201d This was in 1937. Nothing to do with Nazis.\nMy paternal grandfather, a Cossack, was tortured to extract a confession that he was plotting against the government. He was suspended by his testicles. This was reported by a former inmate of the gulag who had served his time and returned home. This can obviously not be substantiated.\nNone returned.\nBoth my father\u2019s and mother\u2019s families were broken up and devastated. Life became a struggle for survival. My maternal grandmother had to provide for herself and 4 children under the age of 16.\nActual crimes? Maternal grandfather, who had fought against Germans in WW1, swore publicly about the shortage of food and having to stand in queues for hours, after having fought for his country. Someone, who was obviously a \u201cgood citizen\u201d reported the comment and that was that.There were plenty of \u201cgood citizens\u201d then. That\u2019s what fear of government does to people \u2013 it turns them into \u201cgood citizens.\u201d\nMy paternal grandfather fought in the Russo-Japanese, as well as in WW1 against the Germans. He also fought as part of the Whites against the Reds in the Russian civil conflict. When he and my great-grandfather resisted forced collectivisation in 1937, they were arrested and charged with \u201ccounter-revolutionary\u201d activities. Having fought with the whites obviously was a black mark against my grandfather, and against my great grand father for having a son fighting with the whites.\nPersonally, after having been brought with such accounts from both sides, as well the accounts of other Russian emigres, it is difficult to forget what we all suffered and are still going through.\nI do not agree with continually re-surrecting this \u2013 the past i s the past, and, as Putin said \u2013 we do not let the dead tug at our sleeves. Yet Putin did well to remember these injustices and for that I am most grateful to him. He is a man of the highest honesty and integrity and is not afraid to face old demons. Remembrance and forgiveness are vital to going forward. So I am all for Russia and stand with all my heart and soul against the demonic, soulless and non-human Anglozionist enemy. My ancestors have shed their blood for Mother Russia \u2013 they would expect nothing less from me.\nIsn\u2019t that what Solzhenitsyn tried to promote\u2014remembrance from his testimony and exposition of the history?\nMany Russians feel he is a traitor to tell that story.\nAmerica has slavery and the genocide of Native Americans on its soul, and more recently, hegemonic wars against defenseless nations and using maniacal regimes in Latin America and SE Asia to promote torture and kill millions (if you include Indonesia).\nExposing the government\u2019s evils is crucial to understanding why the world is what it is today.\nThe USSR had its virtues and its sins. Ideologically constructed governments will always become evil. The people who suffered internally as subjects to the Soviet system deserve remembrance. Part of that is getting the facts straight. The numbers and events should be meticulously checked.\nNo argument about checking the facts and figures and that this is a prime piece of vicious propaganda used by Anglozionist forces, in the most hypocritical way by not acknowledging their own genocides of whole nations, to wit the Sioux Nation, the Cherokee nation, etc. USA, UK and israeli powers are the most hypocritical, murderous forces on the planet. They make the Soviets look like kindergarten.\nRussians who feel that Solzhenitsyn is a traitor to tell this story are those who have a huge chip on their shoulders and who play denial games. To us whose folk suffered so brutally under the Soviet system, his was a breath of fresh air. Too bad if that offends someone.\nI believe that these people are the ones (or their ancestors) who actually committed those crimes. This is why they always try to whitewash those crimes, and call \u201cFascist!\u201d all ones who dare to criticize those crimes.",

It saddens me to lose such iconic people, and makes me more cognizant that my time is approaching as well.\nMany of you have already heard, but legendary actor Adam West was the latest casualty to pop culture. West died Friday, June 9th after a short battle with Leukemia.\nAs an actor, he played many roles, but none as memorable as Batman in the campy classic 1960's television series. For many, West's performance as Bruce Wayne and the caped crusader was their first foray into the world of Batman. In essence, he was the persona which kept the character alive and relevant during the groovy flower generation.\nIt could even be argued his presence as Batman was even more so popular in his elder years than it was back when the series first aired. This was probably cemented by the fact that Adam always made himself available for appearances at conventions, premieres and many other events. He always had a smile, was always very casual with fans, often giving autographs, handshakes, hugs, photographs, or all of the above. His happiness emanated across rooms he was in, and his smile was contagious on all the faces of those around him.\nOver the past few years, fans have been privileged to see numerous Adam West as Batman related merchandise released. Toys, clothing, and even the highly coveted classic television series on Blu-Ray and DVD have made their way into the hands of many eager fans. Though these items will never replace Adam West, they will be a constant reminder of his legacy for many across the world.\nWe will miss you, Adam West, but you will never be forgotten.\nLabels: 2010's, Adam West, Batman, Batman Classic TV Series, NECA",

        "raw_content": "Even then these things in themselves would not be quite so bad if it were not for the fact that the world\u2019s media now seems to take its news directly from whatever is trending on Twitter. If #talkingtomatoes got millions of views, you can bet it\u2019d be a story in The Guardian the next day regardless of whether the tomatoes actually did talk or not. From contributing towards the world\u2019s news and knowledge, Twitter has become the agenda leader but it possesses nothing of the journalistic skills that used to be at the heart of a good story. The fact that President Trump seems to use Twitter as his main communications tool can only make things worse. Of all people elected world leaders should not be stating their views and ideas so abruptly.\nIn the particular case I mentioned at the start it was alleged by Katie Hopkins that Jack Munroe had approved of the vandalism of war memorials during an anti- austerity demonstration in 2015 when in fact it was someone else who had expressed such opinions. It doesn\u2019t say much for Hopkins\u2019 credibility as a journalist that she failed to check these facts or that when she was corrected failed to apologise or retract. While Munroe does have something of a reputation for controversial statements in this case she was not only innocent but coming from a family with a military background particularly offended. A demonstration of just how skewed things have become though is that since the case concluded with a victory for Munroe a spoof fundraising page to donate towards paying Hopkins\u2019 legal fees has actually received considerable donations though the money will go to food banks. Yet some people think it is genuine.\nTwitter does not seem to facilitate any shades of grey. Everything is right or wrong, good or bad- the dialogue of opposition and confrontation. Its format is so speedy that even an apology may scroll off screen before it is seen by the injured party. It encourages mob mentality. People who might otherwise lead normal lives go crazy on Twitter hurling the kind of accusations they would not dare do verbally if the other person was there. They do so because they know the chances of being called to account in the real world are far smaller than if you actually physically attacked somebody yet they may be doing just as much harm. The mantra of social media supporters that we live in a post privacy, post Truth world is coming true because we\u2019re letting it.\nSuccessive laws mean that most of us cannot now afford to bring a case to court in such an event so it can only help if more rich or famous people do so to shine a light on the creeping way opinions are becoming facts.\nIt is perfectly true that Twitter remains a vital tool in the dissemination of news and information yet we may be approaching a tipping point where it\u2019s bad traits outweigh it\u2019s good ones. I know people may disagree and say it is vital to have such a free platform form from which it is very difficult to get banned but then again I bet most of them haven\u2019t been the target of hundreds of threatening Tweets.",

        "raw_content": "Home News Guatemala Calls for General Elections For June 16\nGuatemala\u2019s Supreme Electoral Court (TSE) called for general elections for June 16, 2019, as the country is going through a political crisis fostered by President Jimmy Morales\u2019s conflict with the U.N. Anti-Graft body.\n\u201cThe Supreme Electoral Court calls to participation with a civi spirit, in harmony and without confrontations,\u201d said Mario Aguilar, president of the TSE.\nMore than seven million Guatemalans will elect about 4,000 public servants, including president, vice president, municipal authorities and representatives for local, national and Central American houses.\nNeither president Morales nor the presidents of the other government branches were present at the TSE ceremony announcing the elections date.\nMorales was elected with a promise for change in 2015 after ex-President Otto Perez Molina resigned accused of corruption. The U.N.-backed International Commission Against Impunity in Guatemala (CICIG ), which Morales is now trying to expel from the country as soon as possible, played a key role in the investigations.\nWhile Perez Molina\u2019s trial goes on, his vice president Roxana Baldetti was already sentenced to more than 15 years in prison.\nHis current dispute with the CICIG proved to have a strong political cost, with massive protests in favor of the international institution.\nThelma Aldana, who served as the Attorney General (2014-2018) and worked along the CICIG in several high profile corruption cases, has said in the past she would like to participate in the presidential elections. Although she hasn\u2019t formalized her candidacy yet, her team has been discussing the possibility to make her the candidate of a new, progressive political party known as \u201cMovimiento Semilla\u201d (Seed Movement).\nAs soon as she left her position in 2018, several cases were filed against her by the political establishment, accusing her of embezzlement, abuse of authority and other cases.\nOther visible names that will probably participate in the elections are Sandra Torres, who in 2011 divorced then president Alvaro Colom to be able to run in the elections and made it to the second round against Morales in 2015; Alejandro Giammattei, who has been a candidate three times already; and Zury Rios, daughter of the late dictator Efrian Rios Montt, who founded a political party to participate.\nThe electoral authorities informed that there will be 27 out of 28 parties participating in the process so far, as one is suspended, receiving up to US$3.7 million for campaign expenses.\nParties will not be forced to include women or indigenous people in their candidacies because an electoral reform didn\u2019t pass in 2016.\nPrevious articleNicaragua in 2019: Time for Change?\nNext articleNew Migrant Caravan Enters Mexico Undocumented Despite Humanitarian Visas",

        "raw_content": "Last Minutes Madeira\nA last minute holiday to Madeira is a good choice. There are many travel agencies and tour operators offering holidays to Madeira. There is so much choice and there are direct flights to Madeira from whole over Europe.\nLowering the expenses for the Madeira holiday is an offer than no one would ever refuse. For people who have a limited budget but would like to see the beauty of this archipelago, there is one thing that could instantly solve their dilemma. That is, to grab one of the last minute deals.\nA good way to start is to check out the last minute deals at Lastminute.com\nWhat exactly are these? How will this help out in lowering the costs of the trip to Madeira? Spending the holidays in this island means booking for flight, accommodation and other services, right? Last minute deals are holiday packages with reduced price tags. For people who are able to get these deals, it means that they can save a whole lot of cash.\nUnderstanding Last Minute Rates\nTravel agencies, airline companies and hotels offer last minute deals because they are targeting for full booking. For example, a travel agency which handles flight booking to Madeira would launch last minute offers a week before the flight date if there are seats that are still unoccupied. Instead of leaving the seats blank, they would rather offer them at a lower price so people would grab the opportunity. The same goes for other companies. They use this promotional strategy to fill their bookings.\nLast minute deals are perfect for people who are flexible when it comes to the date of departure, hotel and other trip details. Usually, such deals can not be adjusted according to the exact preferences of the customer. The important thing is that the price is much lower.\nFinding Cheap Madeira Packages\nWhen it comes to tours and holiday packages to Madeira that cost less, there is nothing else to rely on but the internet. It only takes a few seconds to find the companies which offer discounted deals. It is actually amazing that there are plenty of online offers for last minute packages. It is just important to check out the reputation of the company through reviews and feedback before providing any personal and credit card details.\nLast minute deals can vary a lot. Some include all services in one package such as flight tickets, hotels and airport transfers. On the other hand, there are those which provide only a single aspect. The offers would all sound very tempting but it is important to compare rates and inclusions before deciding which one to pick.\nBudget Stretching Tips\nSimple budget tips will enable anyone to have a blast during their holiday in Madeira. Travelling wisely means knowing when to splurge and when to be a little tightfisted.\nNever sacrifice comfort over money. This means that when choosing a hotel, make sure that it will be a good place to relax. For example, for people who are staying at hotels in Funchal, consider the distance of the accommodation from the center of the city. The rates may be a little higher but this will also pave way to saving more money because there is no need to take transportation. It will conserve time and energy too.\nDining is definitely a part of the Madeira experience. Some hotels offer 1 to 2 meals a day along with the accommodation. It is best to take advantage of these. When eating out, be a little more adventurous and try out restaurants which serve local dishes. These usually cost less than those which serve international cuisine.",

The construction of the new and the change in the use of old installations ended in 1963. In that year a company was established for public utility operations and thermal energy generation and distribution, thus it was the time when regular thermal energy distribution started in Subotica.

They wonder how Dusty survived at all. He tells them of Gods great love and sustaining power during the trials of a child of God.\n\" No temptation has overtaken you except as is common to man, but God is faithful who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation, will also make the way of escape that you may be able to bear it\"\nMany are touched by God as Dusty speaks. The crowd is amazed, many of them crying out.. \"truly there is a God in heaven\"... \"look at the mercy He has had upon this child\".....\nOthers were rejoicing.. Surely there is hope for me .... How can I know this God?\nLook how He has turned evil into good....\nThe outpouring of Gods love is great, and many repent and turn to God for the first time to find salvation...\nThe news men thought they were going to get a great story for their paper... but they got something even greater... salvation of their souls though faith in Jesus Christ.\nDusty is happy.....\nSo very happy that people are finding his God.. but he feels a gnawing feeling in the pit of his stomach... He must find his father..\nsuddenly... He hears a voice... \"My boy... my boy....\"\nthey embrace... there is no need for words right now...\nAnd then Dusty looks about... \"but father ... where are my brothers\"??\n\"Something terrible has happened Dusty.. your brothers are being held at the governors office for questioning. The authorities suspect they might have had something to do with your disappearance and know more than they are saying\".\n\"Father.. we must go find them.. and set them free...take me there right now\"....\nAt the governors court the boys are being held in a large room and being questioned... one by one....\nDusty breaks in to the court... \"I am here... all is well you can let them go\"....\n\"Well it may not be so easy young man.... while Im glad to see you are alright... there is the matter of the law... you see\"....\nDusty claims in their defense... \"We went for a drive... yes they did drop me off in a lonely place, but if my brothers had not done what they did, I would not have been able to save the space station!.... I forgive them completely and I pray you will too.\"\n\"Oh... I see.... and you are ok \"?\n\"Oh yes... and you can see how God brought me through it all, it was all His will and plan\"....\nAnd that very day the governor trusted God for his own salvation and was saved!\nHe prayed this simple prayer... \"O Jesus.. I believe you are the only son of God and that you died for my sins.. please wash my sins away.. so I can be clean and spend eternity in glory with you\"...\nThe boys were released from the custody of the governor... because Dusty had so forgiven them...\nOut at the car the boys were so grateful for what Dusty did for them, that they fell at his feet and wept.\nDusty explains Gods favor, His love and forgiveness, and that he has forgiven them. He explains Gods protection throughout, and the great triumph God had planned.\nFor God needed Dusty to reveal His love and victory to a great many people. And have many people come to Him as a result of Dusty's life and obedience.\nHis brothers finally understand and repent of what they have done, but mostly they repent of never having known God, and having no desire to follow Him. Which led them to do evil things, for without God, all of us are pawns of the enemy and his evil plans.\nMany hear of Dusty's story throughout the world.... and are saved... Dusty is famous... but only for the glory of God. To spread the good news of the gospel.\nThat all men are born into sin and need salvation that alone comes through the blood of Jesus Christ... and its so simple to be saved ,,, just say the prayer the governor prayed... but pray with faith... and mean it sincerely when you pray..\nEveryone knows of Dusty of the American crew... but mostly they know that God is real and that He loves them too. And that He has a plan for them.. just like He had one for Dusty. Something better than they could imagine for themselves.. something that will bring more peop le to God. For this is the reason we are all here.\nDon't you too want to find Gods plan and purpose for your life? He needs every one of us to serve him, and small people are no less important.. look what happened to Dusty..\nAsk God now for your ministry and purpose in life.. reach for the highest good.. the highest goal... He will give it to you.. when He sees you trying.....\nMake sure you seek your special purpose from God alone, don't let anyone else decide for you. Only God knows the reason He created you and the purpose for your life.\nYou can be sure it will bring more people into His kingdom... and you can be sure it will be the most exciting thing you will ever know.........\n\"For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.\"\nback to tracts.com homepage\nwrite us, we would love to hear from you about Dusty--Tracts1@aol.com\nDusty of the American Crew copyright 2004 Laura Rich",

        "title": "THE TRAITOR WITHIN: Immigrant Gratitude",
        "raw_content": "On Thursday 29 November 2007, the programme, London Talking was aired.\nThe programme was hosted by the former Blue Peter presenter, Konnie Huq, who is Bangladeshi. The Italian Brit, Nick Ferrari, was a panel member. His I'm-not-racist-but pontifications represented the token white 'British' presence in the 'debate.'\nThe Jews Vanessa Feltz and David Aaronovich were also panelists and, to the unaware, will have represented Britishness as well. The Ugandan Asian, Yasmin Alibhai-Brown, was the other member of the panel.\nHere are some of the things this representative bunch had to say about immigration.\nVanessa Feltz: \"If we stopped immigration... we'd be six million pounds less well off because that's the amount of money generated in the capital last year by immigrants! Not only that, WE'D BE BOG BORING, WE WOULD BE BLEAK AND DREARY AND HOMOGENOUS! WE'D LOOK AS IF WE'D BEEN PUMPED OUT BY THE SAME GHASTLY FACTORY PRODUCTION LINE!\nWe owe an enormous amount to immigrants! That's really because were are all descended from immigrants, however indigenous you think you are! Have a look in your family tree, you'll see you came from somewhere far afield!\nAnd good, because it adds enormously, not only to the hum of business, in London, Ken Livingston will tell you we are the business capital of the world, we've never been more prosperous than we are today, but also to to the diversity, to the fact that it's amusing walking down the street, to the fact that AS SOON AS YOU GO OUTSIDE LONDON, YOU THINK, 'OH MY GOD! WHERE HAVE I ENDED UP? IT'S LIKE MIDDLE AMERICA OUT THERE'.\"\nIn answer to this question from Ferrari:\n\"What are you saying, the British are too lazy? Indigenous Brits?\"\nFeltz replied: \"That's what Sainsburies said, they said exactly that!\" (The Sainsbury family is Jewish)\nAlibhai-Brown added:\n\"Kelvin McKenzie said it! THAT'S THE BEST THING I'VE READ IN A LONG TIME, HE SAID: (gloating) 'BRITISH JOBS FOR BRITISH SHIRKERS?' Look if he can say it, Nick, you can too! (cackle)... You just have to look back at our history. When the Jewish people came it was the same story, one or two fine, the rest are contaminating this capital, there are too many of them, they are taking our jobs! go back to the Hugenots, Shakespeare was writing about it!\"\nKelvin McKenzie is the editor most associated with the Rupert Murdoch's Sun newspaper. He was personally responsible for the introduction of much of the dumbed-down content more than 3,000,000 Sun 'readers' nowadays pore over.\nDavid Aaronovich said this:\n\"THERE'S NO QUESTION THAT DIVERSITY IS WHAT WE WANT. Vanessa must be absolutely right. Alibhai-Brown, Feltz, Huq, Aaronovich, Ferrari! Bye bye immigrants, bye bye panel! Now turn the camera on the people who are here today, it sort of disappears.\nWE SHOULD HAVE ID CARDS! Until you have proper ID cards you won't know who is in the country and, actually, YOU WON'T REALLY CARE!..\nYou're like Canute's courtiers, taking his chair to the waves and saying, come on, command the sea to go back. IT'S NOT GOING TO GO BACK...\nThere isn't a solution in the way you're looking for. There isn't a solution... You're going to be very impoverished if you attempt to have a bad policy to stop immigrants coming in. You're going to be poor as a consequence of that. So what you're going to have to do, you've got to have more flexibilty about getting more money to the places where people need the services. THAT'S WHAT NEW GLOBALISATION MEANS! YOU'RE LIVING IN THE PAST!\"\nAudience member, Anita Sollis, Head of Ethnic Minority Achievement at Southfields Community College, and as PC as can be imagined, said this:\n\"We think we're the most multicutural school in Europe... 71 LANGUAGES ARE SPOKEN BY THE CHILDREEN AT OUR SCHOOL... We are an exceptional school, we are copnsdered outstanding in every area by OFSTED... WE ARE TRULY HARMONIOUS... Obviously we do have children who come who are complete beginners and we need resources and THEY POSE CERTAIN DIFFICULTIES but they also bring a lot of advantages.\nOur school has achieved much higher results since we've had many more children from abroad and that's party because the attitude of immigrants to education (furious applause from Feltz and Alibhai-Brown) is that is that way you will succeed. The parents, the students know that their way up is through education and therefore THE CHILDREN FROM ABROAD ARE LIKE ROLE MODELS TO OUR CHILDREN!\"\nAudience member, Rob Winder, author of Bloody Foreigners and a former BBC Middle East correspondent, was, for 5 years, the Literary Editor of The Independent.\nA member of the Gaieties Cricket Club, captained by Harold Pinter, (Jewish) Winder is, pretty obviously, a PC luvvy of the first water. He said this:\n\"It's just part of normal life. As David said IT'S CANUTISH TO OPPOSE IT. To object to immigration, or to decide whether you think it's a good or a bad thing, it's a bit like objecting to growing up. IT DOESN'T REALLY MATTER WHAT WE THINK BECAUSE IT'S HAPPENING. I don't think scale is a problem.\"\nSo, according to him, as many as want to should be allowed in because 'scale' is not 'problem.' He, obviously, doesn't live anywhere close to where our little girls have been routinely abused, raped and prostitued by the Muslim paedophile over the course of the last two or three decades.\nOr maybe he does and just doesn't care.\nVideos of this programme may be seen here: Immigrant Gratitude and Immigrant Gratitude 2.",

        "title": "\ufeff Sightseeing in Estonia. County of J\u00e4rvamaa",
        "raw_content": "Sightseeing in Estonia. County of J\u00e4rvamaa\nJ\u00e4rva County (area 2623 sq km, population about 40 000) - is marshes and bogs, crystal clear springs, fertile fields and ancient culture and customs. J\u00e4rva County is a historical county in Central Estonia, occupying practically the same area as the ancient county formed in the 13th century. J\u00e4rva County is small, there are only two towns: county center Paide, which got the rights of a town on 30 September 1291 and T\u00fcri (1/3 smaller in size than Paide) - the Spring Capital, famous for its flower fairs. One of the oldest villages of the ancient Estonia - Kareda - is also situated in the J\u00e4rva County: the town is also mentioned in the Latvian Hendricks Livonia Chronicle in 1212 under the name Carethen. Local people value J\u00e4rva County and through their work, activities and caring attitude have created the lifestyle and environment the current County J\u00e4rva is known for.\nThe most interesting sights of J\u00e4rva County :\n1. K\u00f5rvemaa Landscape Reserve covers an area of 204 sq km The area is rich in protected plant species (in previous years 23 species of orchids have been found here), a number of rare bird species nest here, including golden eagle, lesser spotted eagle and black stork; wood grouse are also found here. To make getting-to-know the nature of K\u00f5rvemaa easier, special nature trails have been erected: Simisalu-Matsim\u00e4e, Tammsaare (Vargam\u00e4e)-J\u00e4rva-Madise, Noko-Lake Kakerdaja, etc.\n2. Valgehobusem\u00e4gi / White Horse Hill is the highest point of K\u00f5rvemaa (107m over the sea level), where in 1976 a 28m observation tower was erected. According to a legend Kalevipoeg rested here from ploughing, the wolves sneaked to his white horse and killed it. The hill of Valgehobusem\u00e4gi was formed from the body of the horse and due to the disruption of the ploughing the landscape here is hilly.\n3. Albu Manor - the first data of the Manor date from 1282 and make it the oldest manor in the County J\u00e4rva and one of the oldest in Estonia. Probably there was previously a fortified house on the site, as the building is situated on an artificial hill and is partly surrounded by a river. The main building of the current Manor was erected in the middle of the 18th century. The decor is simple and laconic, the doors and tiled stove with early Classical formation have been preserved. In the restoration of the manor building the principle of restoring as close to the original as possible has been followed. Currently the Albu Gymnasium is located in the Manor, which in the summer period is open to the tourists.\n4. J\u00e4neda Manor. J\u00e4neda Village was mentioned for the first time in documents in 1353 and the Manor of J\u00e4neda in 1510. Since 1921 the Manor has housed an agricultural educational institution. Currently the J\u00e4neda Training and Consultation Center and the biggest conference center of J\u00e4rva County are located here. One of the most famous composers of Estonia - Urmas Sisask - pursues his activities in the J\u00e4neda Manor. He is the leader of the Estonian Astro Music Center and the Music Observatory-Planetarium of J\u00e4neda that are also located in the J\u00e4neda Manor.\n5. The Area of Norra-Oostriku Springs is considered to be the most abundant water-source area in Estonia (2.1 millions liters per hour). There are numerous springs of different outlet size, depth and flow on the area untouched by human activity. The depth of the Sopa Spring, which is the beginning of the Sopa Brook, has been measured 4.8 meters. It is the deepest spring in Estonia. Vollingi Spring is one of the most water abundant springs in Estonia. Vilbaste Springs offer a unique view: from the bottom of the spring a sand cloud several centimeters high \"boils up\", it includes little grains of spring lime and gives the water a green-bluish color. There are many rare and protected plants in the area - lady's-slipper, bird's-nest, marsh helleborine, etc.\n6. A.H.Tammsaare Museum. The Museum was opened in 1958 in the Village of Vetepere, in the house where Anton Hansen Tammsaare, the most famous literature classic of Estonia, was born. The complex comprises a dwelling house, barn and farm including a barn, cattle-shed and cottagers' buildings. In these buildings the lifestyle of the times of \"T\u00f5de ja \u00d5igus\" (\"the Truth and the Right\") is being exhibited. In the former dwelling house there is an exhibition reflecting the life and creative work of the writer. In summer different events take place; the open-air theatre performances are especially popular. From the Museum hiking tracks lead into the countryside of Korvemaa.\n7. Estonian Broadcasting Museum is situated in the town of T\u00fcri. The town became widely known in 1937 when a broadcasting station with the most modern antenna mast in Europe was erected here. The permanent and temporary exhibitions of the Museum reflect the history and development of broadcasting from the beginning of the regular radio transmissions in 1926 until the present time.\n8. Museum of J\u00e4rva-Jaani Fire-fighting Society is situated in J\u00e4rva-Jaani, at 24 Pikk Street, which used to be a fire-station. The history of fire-fighting through centuries has been displayed in the Museum, including many restored fire-engines. An added attraction is the possibility to order show-events, where the main actors are the voluntary fire-fighters.\n9. The Reserve founded on the T\u00fcri Drumlins covers about 60 ridges running in a NE-SW direction, created by glacier sheet, the highest of which reaches 79.9 meters above the sea level. In total the drumlins cover the area of 140 sq km. The best overview of the T\u00fcri Drumlins can be obtained from the T\u00fcri-Vaatsa and T\u00fcri-Paide roads.\n10. J\u00e4rva-Madise Church is one of the smallest in Estonia. The Church was formerly erected without the West tower. The tower was built in 1858. The furnishing of the Church originates from the Renaissance and Baroque periods.\n11. Paide Bank Tower - Pikk Hermann, the symbol of the town. The visitor to the Paide Bank Tower with its exhibition of the older history of the J\u00e4rva County, Art Gallery and a Cafe, will find seven floors of interesting exhibitions. On the seventh floor there is an observation platform giving a view of the town and its historical streets. The tower has a Cafe with an interesting interior.\n12. Estonian Dairy Museum was founded in 1976 in Imavere, in the first dairy farm of the Joint Dairy Society in Estonia. The Museum was opened for visitors on 14 July 2001. The permanent exhibition includes the full dairy history in Estonia.\nWarning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Access denied for user 'd14657sa18989'@'sn-69-6.tll07.zoneas.eu' (using password: YES) in /data03/virt15346/domeenid/www.aviastar.org/htdocs/travel/estonia/jarvamaa.php on line 166",

        "title": "Viberzi Reviews 2018 [WARNING] Does It Work or Scam?",
        "raw_content": "Viberzi Reviews - What Is It?\nDO NOT BUY Viberzi!!! You Must Read This Review!\nViberzi is a prescription medicine that is used for the treatment of people who suffer from Irritable Bowel Syndrome with Diarrhea (IBS-D). it is designed for adults only and should not be used for children under 18 years of age. The main active ingredient in the medication is eluxadoline that works in your intestines by slowing the movement of food through the digestive tract. Eluxadoline also lowers the sensitivity of the nerves in the human intestines. So, that they get less prone to stimulation. Remember that your doctor may prescribe Viberzi for purposes which are not listed in this review. The official website of the product is not well made in terms of informativeness. It lacks basic data about the main component of the product, does not disclose all the possible side effects and adverse reactions. The manufacturer behind the product is badly known and does not provide true users' reviews on the medication.\nIngredients of Viberzi - Does It Really Work? Is It a Scam?\nAs it was already mentioned, Eluxadoline is the main ingredient in the product. The manufacturer does not mention any other components in the drug at all. It means that there is a chance of consuming artificial, allergic of harmful substances. There is also no evidence confirming the safety and effectiveness of the product in the fight with Irritable Bowel Syndrome accompanied with diarrhea.\nThe main component in the medication, Eluxadoline, is used for the treatment of the same condition as Viberzi in general. This compound can be received only with a doctor's prescription, probably, because this substance can be harmful. Before using eluxadoline it is highly recommended to weight all the risks and benefits of taking this drug. This decision should be made together with your doctor. Consider the possibility of having any allergies not only to the main component in the drug but also to other medications, foods or substances. Tell your doctor if you have had any allergic reaction to eluxadoline or any other types of allergies.\nSafety and efficacy of Viberzi have not been established when used among children and young people under 18 years of age. More studies are needed to be performed on the usefulness and safety of eluxadoline in the elderly people. This category of patients are more prone to having undesired side effects, including stomach problems. There is lack of studies in breastfeeding women for determining risks for a nursing child. It is important to weigh the benefits and potential risks before taking Viberzi while breastfeeding.\nThis medicine may interact with other drugs. Certain drugs should not be used in combination with Viberzi at all. In other cases, you may need to change the dose of any of the two medicines or even refuse from one of them. In these cases, you should consult your doctor. If you are going to take eluxadoline, it is important to ensure that you are not taking any of the following medicines: Alfentanil, Cyclosporine, Atazanavir, Dihydroergotamine, Ergotamine, Eltrombopag, Fentanyl, Gemfibrozil, Flibanserin, Lopinavir, Quinidine, Pimozide, Rifampin, Rosuvastatin, Ritonavir, Tipranavir, Saquinavir, Tacrolimus, Sirolimus, Temsirolimus.\nAvoid consuming alcohol or smoking tobacco when using Viberzi. Inform your doctor if you experience any of the following medical problems: bowel or stomach blockage, constipation, gallbladder blockage, liver disease, pancreas problems, pancreatitis or Oddi disease. It is recommended to take eluxadoline as your doctor says to. Do not overdose it in order to decrease the chance of side effects. Take this drug with food. The dose of eluxadoline depends on the patient and can be determined only by your doctor. The amount of medicine depends on the strength of Viberzi you have chosen. You are recommended to keep the record of your progress visiting your doctor regularly. If your symptoms does not improve within several days, you should see your doctor.\nYou should be aware of the fact that eluxadoline may increase the chance for sphincter of Oddi spasm and pancreatitis. This compound may negatively influence your liver problems, your ability to drive or to do any responsible activity. Do not take other drugs without discussing the issue with your doctor. Otherwise, you risk experiencing severe side effects.\nThe manufacturer of Viberzi mentions only some side effects on its official website. In reality, they are much more numerous. Inform your doctor if you have any of the symptoms: chills, bloating, darkened urine, severe and sudden stomach pain, vomiting, nausea, fever, yellow eyes or skin, lightheadedness. The product could cause more serious side effects, such as a muscle spasm in the digestive system. This may lead to the worsening or abdominal pain. Patients without a gallbladder are at a higher risk of having a spasm which may occur within the first week of using the medication.\nAnother risk is inflammation of the pancreas. It increases if you drink a lot of alcohol. Consult your doctor if you have abdominal pain or pain in the stomach that may move to your shoulder or back. It may be accompanied with nausea and vomiting. Avoid taking Viberzi if you are nursing, pregnant, or are going to become pregnant in the nearest future. Inform your doctor about all the other drugs you may be taking at present, especially if you are taking anticholinergic medicines, Lotronex (alosetron), and opioid pain medicines. Here are some of the testimonials left online by people who have used the medication.\n\"I have been taking Viberzi for two weeks. As a result, I have diarrhea and lower abdominal pain. Recently I have learnt that I have developed pancreatitis. I am going to be hospitalized. Do not take this medication.\"\n\"I have been suffering from IBS for 14 years since I had my gall bladder removed. After I took the first dose of Viberzi my severe abdominal pain was doubled. I went to my doctor. I was diagnosed with pancreatitis and was hospitalized for four days. It is difficult to believe that only one pill could act like this.\"\n\"I took viberzi for my IBS. As a result I spent a week in the hospital. I thought I was going to die. I could not breathe well and suffered from serious pain in my chest. The doctors told me that my pancreas was significantly enlarged, so that it pressed my lungs.\"\nWhere To Buy Viberzi?\nViberzi price may vary depending on the retail store you are purchasing it from. The average cost of 60 oral tablets (75 mg) is around $1026. You will not find it on Amazon, GNC or Walmart.\nViberzi isn't a good remedy for your IBS with diarrhea because it carries too many risks to the human health. The product can cause a number of severe side effects which can be fatal for a patient. Besides, it has a lot of restrictions to usage. The medication is also very expensive. Taking into account all of these drawbacks, I cannot recommend Viberzi to usage.",

        "title": "The Sign Of The \u2018Anti-Christ\u2019 And The \u2018Mark Of The Devil\u2019 Are Two Different Things \u2013 Truth Troubles",
        "raw_content": "The Sign Of The \u2018Anti-Christ\u2019 And The \u2018Mark Of The Devil\u2019 Are Two Different Things\nFrom my childhood on I have come across many people who thought/believe that the sign of the \u2018Anti-Christ\u2019 and the \u2018Mark of the Devil\u2019 are one and the same. There is no Biblical reasoning for this error in thought except for the fact that most Christians seldom open or study the Scriptures to find out what is so, or what is not so. I am over 60 yrs old now and I have studied the Scriptures since I was ten and I have learned many things about truth in this time. I am not here to argue with anyone, I am simply going to state to you what I believe to be God\u2019s truths concerning this matter, you can believe what you wish, I am simply trying to do my duty as a servant of God. I am a person who enjoys reading historical and religious documents whether they be from secular Christian authors or writers with a narrow view-point concerning religion and world events caused by religion.\nFirst let us look at \u2018the mark of the Devil\u2019 that Scripture speaks of. First we must understand that every government on earth is not \u2018holy\u2019, they are man-made and man by nature is carnal, not Godly. Scripture speaks of the \u2018mark of the Devil\u2019 being put into the head or the right hand of the people. What do you think this mark could be? Obviously it will be something that a person can\u2019t just take off of themselves. What could this \u2018thing\u2019 be ? How could people be \u2018marked\u2019? Two thousand years ago I guess people could have been branded with an iron or even with a blade but in these times that we are living in technology has made \u2018marking\u2019 much simpler. It is my belief that this \u2018mark\u2019 will simply be a computer chip put in underneath the skin in the underside of the wrist (in Roman days the wrist was considered to be part of the hand). Most likely only a few people like government agents and military officers would have such chips put into the brain. You may say that this is a bunch of bull-s\u2013t that no one would ever let the government do that to them, all that I can say to that is, really? When the government decides that they can not secure the money because of forgeries including State sponsored forgers like Iran and China? We all should know by now that our personal credit cards and the banks they are off of cannot protect our accounts just as the places we shop at cannot protect their own systems from hackers they cannot protect our information. Also it is obvious that the governments cannot protect our own borders as to whom is coming into the country so that employers can know who it is safe to hire or whom is not. You may say that you would never let that happen to you but when the government stops using and stops printing cash so that you must have the chip to be able to work, buy any food, pay your rent or mortgage or to even put gas in your car then you are going to have a problem. You will lose your home, car, job, and the ability to pay utilities or to ever buy something to eat, will you change your mind when you are living in a cardboard box under a bridge? If you can\u2019t pay your taxes without the chip the government will simply take everything you ever thought you owned. Here in America I think that the identification for each person will be their social security number, but they could obviously come up with another number system to identify each of us with. Why would I call this event the mark of the Devil, if the Devil is the owner of the government\u2026?\nNow about \u2018the sign of the anti-Christ\u2019. In Scripture the sign of God is the number three as in the Trinity and the sign of man is the number six as in the sixth day God created man. The sign of the anti-Christ is noted as 666, this is not the mark of the Devil, it is the sign of three very powerful people who will be possessed by Demons who answer only to their boss Satan. These three people will come from different parts of the globe, one from the east (China) one from the center (above, north of the Holy Lands) meaning the European Union area and the third will come from the Americas to the west. These three will come after they uproot the ten nations/horns and consolidate their power into a tighter noose around the world\u2019s population. After they have almost all power on the Earth \u2018The\u2019 anti-Christ which is Satan himself will rise up from below (the Temple Mount) and usurp the power of his three generals into his own lap. By this time almost all people who have refused the chip will either be dead or in hiding trying to exist each day hiding in caves and forests. Most all of the people who will flat-out refuse the chip will be devout Christians. Do you remember the play book of the U.S. government with the Indian people? Take their guns so they can\u2019t defend themselves or feed themselves, put them into a small area then send in the troops and wipe them out. Scripture tells us that all of the Saints/believers would be wiped out if not for the second advent of Christ returning and sending Satan back to Hell. I believe that almost all of the American people including those who call themselves devout Christians will give in to getting the chips \u2018mark of the Devil\u2019 simply because they love having a roof over their heads and food to eat more than they love the Word of God (Jesus). If we love this life and the treasures of it more than God then we will lose our own Souls suffering \u2018the second death\u2019, forever separation from God when we are sent to live forever in the fires of Hell.\nPosted in Christianity, Faith, govermnent, Personal Thoughts/Beliefs, Religion, Truthful articles for your thoughtsTagged america, Anti-Christ, China, Christ, Christians, computer chips, demons, Devil, European Union, hell, Iran, Jesus, mark of the Devil, SatanLeave a comment\n\u2190 Former Iranian Hostages Should Not Be Compensated With American Tax Dollars\nIs Islam More Racist And Un-inclusive Than The KKK Or The Nazi\u2019s? \u2192",

        "raw_content": "Supreme Court lets California gun control laws stand\nUpdated 12:36 PM ET, Tue February 20, 2018\nWashington (CNN) The Supreme Court declined Tuesday to take up two gun-related cases out of California, maintaining its reluctance to dive back into the debate concerning the scope of the 2nd Amendment.\nIn an unsigned order, the court let stand a ruling upholding California\u2019s law mandating a 10-day waiting period and another imposing fees on firearm transactions to fund background checks.\nThe court\u2019s order comes at a sensitive time as the country is reeling from the latest school shooting in Parkland, Florida.\nThese are the victims of the Florida school shooting\nThe denials also signal the court remains unwilling to take another look at several lower court rulings 10 years after its landmark opinion that found for the first time that the 2nd Amendment protects an individual has a right to own a firearm in the house, drawing a scathing dissent from conservative Justice Clarence Thomas, who accused the court of sidestepping the issue.\nThe California law requiring a 10-day waiting period was challenged by a firearm owner and the gun-rights group Second Amendment Foundation, who argued it was unfair for people who already owned firearms to have to wait the same amount of time as first-time purchasers who were undergoing background checks during that time.\nWhile a lower court sided against the firearm owners, the 9th US Circuit of Appeals upheld the state law, and Tuesday\u2019s Supreme Court action means it will remain in effect.\nThe second case involves gun owners and the National Rifle Association challenging a California law that imposes fees on all firearms transactions in order to pay for background checks. When there is a surplus of funds, the money is diverted to fund law enforcement programs dedicated to tracking down individuals who unlawfully possess firearms.\nLawyers for the challengers argued in court papers, \u201cwhile constitutionally protected conduct may be subject to generally applicable taxes and fees, it may not be singled out for special monetary extractions designed to profit from, or worse still, discourage the exercise of the constitutional right.\u201d\nThe 9th Circuit upheld the fees, and the Supreme Court allows them to remain in place.\nWill court address Heller?\nThe NRA conservatives have been urging justices in recent years to expand upon the 2008 decision in Heller v. United States and a second ruling two years later.\nThomas issued a lengthy dissent in the 10-day waiting period case to criticize some lower courts for treating 2nd Amendment rights \u201ccavalierly.\u201d\n\u201cThe right to keep and bear arms is apparently this court\u2019s constitutional orphan,\u201d Thomas wrote. \u201cAnd the lower courts seem to have gotten the message.\u201d\nCNN announces town hall with students, parents affected by Florida school shooting\nIt\u2019s been \u201cnearly eight years\u201d since the court issued an opinion declaring that the Second Amendment is not a \u201csecond class right,\u201d Thomas wrote, saying that by refusing to take up the issue the justices \u201cundermine that declaration.\u201d\nAs a result, he said, lower courts are \u201cfailing to protect the Second Amendment to the same extent that they protect other constitutional rights.\u201d\nMoreover, Thomas said he suspected that four members of the court would vote to review a 10 day waiting period for abortions, or a 10-day waiting period on the publication of racist speech, or a 10 minute delay of a traffic stop because \u201cabortion, speech and the Fourth Amendment are three of its favored rights.\u201d\nPosted in constitution, guns, law, Supreme CourtTagged 10 waiting period, 2nd Amendment, California gun control laws, CNN, US Supreme CourtLeave a comment\n\u2190 Father-In-Law And Friend: You Will Be Missed\nIraqi Christians Facing Extinction After 1,400 Years Forgive ISIS of Genocide \u2018In the Name of Christ\u2019 \u2192",

        "title": "Krames Online - What Are Neuromas of the Foot?",
        "raw_content": "What Are Neuromas of the Foot?\nThe ball of your foot is the bottom part just behind your toes. Bands of tissue (ligaments) connect the bones in the ball of your foot. Nerves run between the bones and underneath the ligaments. When a nerve or a number of small nerves become pinched, this causes them to swell and become painful due to the thickening of the tissue that surrounds the nerves. The painful, swollen nerve or cluster of nerves is called a neuroma (also called Morton neuroma).\nA neuroma most often happens at the base of either the third and fourth toes or the second and third toes.\nRunners often report this problem and describe experiencing pain as they push off from the starting block. Wearing tight or high-heeled shoes can cause a neuroma. Shoes that are too narrow or too pointed squeeze the bones in the ball of the foot. Shoes with high heels put extra pressure on the ends of the bones. When the bones are squeezed together, they pinch the nerve that runs between them.\nThe most common symptom of a neuroma is pain in the ball of the foot between two toes. The pain may be dull or sharp. It may feel as if you have a stone in your shoe. You may also have tingling or numbness in one or both of the toes. Symptoms may happen after you have been walking or standing for a while. Taking off your shoes and rubbing the ball of your foot may decrease or relieve the pain.\nTo prevent a future neuroma, buy shoes with plenty of room across the ball of the foot and in the toes. This keeps the bones from being squeezed together. Wearing low-heeled shoes (less than 2 inches) also puts less pressure on the bones and nerves in the ball of the foot.\nAnkle Dorsiflexion/Plantarflexion (Flexibility)",

        "raw_content": "My struggle is the beginning, middle, and end. I have a hard time coming up with what I'm going to write about. Once I've figured that part out, I have a hard time putting my thoughts into words. And after I have something down on paper, I have a difficult time accepting that what I have written is of any value.\nHowever, this is my only obstacle to becoming a writer. It doesn't take as much time as I once thought because, it seems, no one is out there trying to write the next Moby Dick. It no longer takes 1,000 pages to tell a story or to make a philosophical point about the human condition. I don't know that it ever did, but the way most readers consume information now has changed, and writing has had to change to keep up.\nI'm thankful. I have a difficult enough time settling on a topic for a 1,000 word post that will take me less than an hour to complete. I don't know how I would ever be able to commit to a project whose end goal would be a five-pound tome.\nThis, however, does not provide an excuse for a decline in quality, even though I would be hard pressed to find someone who could argue convincingly that the quality of writing and thought in one of the new releases at Barns and Nobel or one of the books on Amazon's top 100 could even begin to rival one of the classics in its command of the English language.\nIt would seem that if the scope of the work I am trying to accomplish is so much narrower, and so much shorter, that I'd be able to make up some of the ground in quality. But that doesn't seem to be the case.\nHow does a writer of a classic think during their writing process? How do they go about developing their story or crafting their sentences? It can't be that much different than today. However, I suppose, garbage in garbage out. I'm sure the classic writers and thinkers had a much healthier diet of reading and information than I have today.\nThis is an external factor that I feel like I can do something about. There are a lot of messages thrown at me every day. Many marketers are fighting for my attention, and I've subscribed myself to many things that I find interesting and enjoyable, but, if this information diet is turning my stomach, polluting my mind, and hindering my writing, it may be time for some changes.\nIt isn't realistic, practical, or helpful to pull the plug entirely. There is still the needed flow of input needed for processing, digestion, and good quality out put, but if so much time is taken at the top of the funnel, the second two stages suffer.\nWhat I need to develop is a more steady flow of information in, time to process and reflect, and written output at the other end. I need to turn this funnel into a cylinder with a fat middle. I actually believe that the middle, right now, is the narrowest part of the process.\nSeveral of my writing, including this one, have begun without proper digestion in the middle. Fortunately, this one has developed into some well formed thought and reflections, and has led me to a few other ideas for posts that I will have to write: How to develop a healthy diet of information; How to develop a good balance between input, reflection, and output; and How to achieve the desired output by controlling inputs.",

        "raw_content": "Funds for Vea Irrigation facility likely to be returned to Donor\nin Science & Technology October 4, 2012\nVea \u2013 A donor fund that was sourced by the Ghana Government to rehabilitate some parts of the Vea Irrigation Dam in the Upper East Region is likely to be returned to the donor agency if concrete measures are not taken to resolve a confrontation between the Chief of Vea and the \u201cTindana\u201d to pave way for the contractor to complete the project as scheduled.\nThe \u201cTindana\u201d is the overseer and spiritual head of the land and often consults the soothsayers when there is need for land to be released for any major development.\nHe is therefore a major stakeholder when it comes to the release of land for development and the Chief alone cannot play that role.\nSpeaking to the Ghana News Agency in an interview at Bongo , the Managing Director (MD) of Eunitack Services Exchange, Mr Lawrence Adam Takyi, the project contractor, said he was awarded the contract in 2010 to rehabilitate the up and down stream walls of the Vea facility which had developed major gullies as a result of prolonged erosion.\nThe MD who indicated that he would have completed the project before the December 2012 deadline, said he had done some part of the job and imported some material from South Africa to complete it.\nHe said what was needed to complete the work was some raw material in the form of rocks which could be found in the area but he had to enter into an agreement with the Vea Chief, Naba Thomas Azubire, and so a memorandum of understanding was signed and a sum of money paid to the chief for the raw material.\nThe MD indicated when he was about to break the rocks for use he was prevented by the \u201cTindana\u201d who announced to him that that portion of the land was a sacred place and should therefore not be used for such activities.\nThis move, the MD noted, was seriously undermining and delaying the completion of the project at the scheduled time.\nMeanwhile, the Upper East Regional Coordinating Council together with the Bongo Traditional Council are doing all they can to ensure that they resolve the issue for the contractor to complete the project on schedule to avoid the return of the grant to the donor.\nAddressing some of the stakeholders at the Palace of the Paramount Chief of the Bongo Traditional Area, the Deputy Upper East Regional Minister, Mrs Lucy Awuni said Government could not afford to allow the grant from the Nordic Development Fund to be returned without the execution of the project.\nShe appealed to the Paramount Chief of Bongo, Naba Baba Salifu Aleemyaruum who is the overlord of the area to intervene and resolve the issue.\nMrs Awuni explained that the Vea Irrigation facility used to be a major source of livelihood not only to the people of Vea community but the entire Bongo District and the Bolgatanga Municipality where most people engaged in dry season farming including rice, tomato, onion, pepper cultivation, among others.\nShe stated that due to the deplorable nature of the facility, majority of the farmers could not crop as they used to do and as a result most of them including the youth had left to the southern sector to seek for greener pastures.\n\u201cWhen the facility is rehabilitated it would empower the people particularly the youth to go into farming, especially during the dry season instead of migrating elsewhere to do menial jobs\u201d\nThe Paramount Chief blamed Vea Naba Azubire, one of the sub chiefs, for causing the problem and said he the Paramount Chief should have been consulted earlier.\nHe assured the Deputy Regional Minister that he would resolve the problem for the project to be completed on schedule.\nThe Dam, which was built in the 1960s, is collapsing. It has not had any major rehabilitation since its establishment. The canals and laterals that convey water from the dam to the farms have virtually broken down.\nWater does not get to the farmers to enable them to irrigate their farms and many have abandoned the farmlands.\nThe irrigation area is zoned into low lands for rice farming and uplands for the cultivation of tomato soya beans, cabbage, lettuce, pepper and other vegetables.\nMillet and groundnuts also used to be grown in the area.

But more importantly, unlike the time when technology was taking its first steps, all these services can now be operated with reliability and quality standards.\nStarting from an idealistic viewpoint, but not quite as technologically developed offering free phone calls over the Internet, has developed to the point that today users can make voice calls, high-definition video calls and even make and receive calls from mobile phones or fixed in the UK or internationally directly from a computer or a smartphone. Moreover, today these all these can be achieved with reliability and quality, unlike the time when this technology was taking its first steps.\nIn addition to providing these services through computers, smart phones with WiFi, as iPhone 3GS, can be used as a platform for a number of VoIP applications, allowing user to transfer an account between their preferred devices.\nRegardless of the device used and subject to maximum use reasonable notice, you can also make unlimited calls to landlines in certain countries around the world for a fee of less than 8 pounds per month. Meanwhile, VoIP operators also offer calls that are paid as they are used. Whatever option is chosen, it is likely that the price is significantly below the rates charged by incumbent telephone operators, especially when it comes to mobile phone calls abroad. This resource is used particularly by small and medium enterprises, because it is an economical method for keeping in touch with office colleagues and other matters, whether in the UK or abroad.\nAnother feature offered by leading providers of VoIP is the option of applying a number of Internet to your computer and thus making it a virtual phone that can make calls from landline and mobile through the public switched telephone network (PSTN) and mobile networks. This means that even when family, friends and colleagues are traveling, they can still keep in touch with you on your computer.\nOne possible barrier to some Internet users do not trust the security of making phone calls over the Internet. However, VoIP providers to ensure reliable voice calls are encrypted like any other confidential information is transmitted over the Internet, and thus protect your privacy of any malicious interference. In fact, given the level of encryption applied by VoIP providers more confidence, probably easier to illegally access call landlines or mobile voice calls decipher as data sent over the Internet.\nTherefore, if you run a small business or have a big family, we recommend you to find out about the possibility of changing your service existing fixed or mobile telephone to a VoIP communications option.",

        "title": "New Deal 3 Summary | One Vision, One Nation, One People",
        "raw_content": "With the overarching premise that the \u201cNew Direction\u201d will consist of the combination of: 1) Limited Federal Government, and 2) the Tax burden of that limited government placed squarely on the shoulders of our wealthiest, here is a summary collection of ideas for New Deal 3. Would love to hear yours\u2026\n\u201cTake a method and try it. If it fails, admit it frankly, and try another. But by all means, try something.\u201d \u2013 Franklin D. Roosevelt\nGovernment Welfare: All current federal cash/voucher/aid programs eliminated in 3 years, reduced by 1/3 a year until termination. Aid will be left to the States, community centers, and charities to determine and administer, and all future federal \u201caid\u201d to individuals will be provided via health and education savings accounts. The Federal government will be restricted to Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness. \u201cLife\u201d will be read to mean Health Savings Accounts for every citizen, \u201cLiberty\u201d will be read to mean Safety, Security, and Freedom for any adult to act in a manner that does not hurt their neighbor, and \u201cPursuit of Happiness\u201d will be read to mean an opportunity to receive the training and education necessary to be gainfully employed. Federal taxes will only be used to provide citizens the path to prosperity. Charitable aid will be left to communities, non-profits, and lower governments to administer as they see fit.\nTaxes: Increased on wealthy to balance the budget within 3 years. As federal welfare is stepped down to elimination, taxes on our wealthy are stepped up to balance the budget. This will include elimination of most corporate and individual tax write offs, a rise in luxury taxes, a continuation of inheritance taxes, taxing capital gains and dividends as income, and any other historically effective tax method to target our wealthiest to fund our limited government.\nBalance Budget Amendment: A \u201cbalanced budget\u201d constitutional amendment will be enacted at end of 3 years to set the default requirement of Congress to \u201cbalanced.\u201d The amendment will have a provision to allow Congress to override this requirement in the event of a super-majority decision to issue national debt.\nHealthcare: Heath Savings Accounts (HSAs) funded and regulated by the federal government will be provided to every American Citizen in the amount of approximately $3,000 a year. This will replace the nearly $900,000,000,000 we currently spend on Government Healthcare programs \u2013 Medicare, Medicaid, S-Chip, and other government healthcare benefits are replaced with a universal solution with the power in the consumer\u2019s hands. Any citizen wishing to access their HSA must first use these funds to purchase annual catastrophic healthcare insurance from the private sector. These insurance minimums, as well as what other health expenses qualify to be paid for out of an HSA, will be dictated by government regulation. Healthcare will be administered by the private sector, and any insurer seeking government approved funds cannot discriminate based on a pre-existing conditions. With this new system, corporations will no longer be required to provide health insurance for their American employees. Additionally, as every American citizen is issued an HSA covering health visits and catastrophic health insurance, no health provider will be required by law to provide healthcare to someone who cannot afford it. Rather than law and regulation, we will rely upon our Health Savings Accounts to pay our health bills, with local charities and the Hippocratic oath providing health services to those people in America who are not citizens or to any who are destitute, whose HSA funds are depleted, and whose catastrophic insurance does not cover all of their medical bills.\nEducation: Education Savings Accounts (ESA), funded and regulated by the federal government, will be provided to every school-aged American Citizen in an amount as determined by cost of living studies. Schools will no longer be funded directly by the government. Instead, government will fund the children themselves, all schools will compete for students, and guardians will determine what school their child will attend. Education will be privately administered and government regulated. A child who uses a government provided ESA and fails the year\u2019s completion test will be required to attend joint Guardian / Student counseling before receiving another year\u2019s ESA. Students failing a second year risk termination of any future government funding and will need to show cause for future ESA payments \u2013 perhaps to attend a trade school or job training academy. Government funding for college grants and higher education for excelling children will be increased to promote further learning opportunities for our future leaders.\n\u201cEducation is not a problem. Education is an opportunity.\u201d \u2013 Lyndon B. Johnson\nSocial Security/Government Retirements: Federal government will borrow funds as determined in court proceedings to pay out Social Security program contributors and all federal employees on a defined federal benefit retirement plan. Going forward, people will receive retirement funds, not an IOU from a bankrupt government with the indebtor being our children. Payouts will be placed into a privately held retirement fund owned by the citizen. Financial institutions wishing to hold these retirement funds will be heavily regulated by government to provide a necessary \u201ccheck\u201d to balance the private system. It will be government\u2019s job to, best it can, create a low risk environment in the private sector in which the citizen can store his retirement funds. All future federal employee retirement plans, including all government positions, will be of 401k style. As in an Individual Retirement Account (IRA), retirement accounts will be privately administered and government regulated.\nMilitary: US will dramatically downsize military in effort to foster peace, promote joint responsibility in the world arena, and balance its own budget.\n\u201cIf there is one principle more deeply rooted in the mind of every American, it is that we should have nothing to do with conquest.\u201d \u2013 Thomas Jefferson\nCurrency: US dollars will once again be backed by a universal measure of value. For the US to remain the world currency, it must issue a world dollar. A mixed natural resource standard (ie. Gold / Oil / Aluminum / Silver / Natural Gas / Coal / Minerals, Fresh Water, etc.) will back a world currency and accumulation of appropriate resources will constitute the ability of a nation to issue a \u201cdollar,\u201d backed by the precious metal, resource, or mineral on hand. Although the preference is for a world-agreed upon standard for the currency, the US will create one in absence of a consensus. A Standardized currency is needed to provide a world solution to our currency wars, and set the stage for a peaceful era of world trade and cooperation.\nTrade Imbalance: US will initiate \u201cImport Credit\u201d system to foster not only a free trade system, but a fair trade system that reduces the trade imbalance. Nations attempting to export more than they import will be required to purchase import credits on the free market exchange.\nSocial Issues: Federal Government will remove itself from trying to define the \u201cright\u201d answer for social issues. So long as a person does not hurt their neighbor, it will be between them and God to judge whether their actions are appropriate.\nImmigration: Companies knowingly hiring illegal immigrants will be subject to fine, but the elimination of welfare, coupled with the appropriation of Health and Education Savings accounts to only American citizens, should reduce the excessive tax burden illegal immigration places on our system. Legal immigration should be made easier and illegal immigration made more difficult.",

They are making exciting advances in laser cooling and trapping and were recognized during the awarding of the 1997 Nobel Prize in Physics, which was shared by UR alumnus Steven Chu' 70, former US Secretary of Energy.\nDepartmental research in quantum optics spans a wide range of topics:\nProfessor Agrawal's research interests are in the area of theoretical optics, particularly quantum electronics, nonlinear optics, and laser physics. His current research is focused on nonlinear silicon photonics, highly nonlinear fibers, and all-optical signal processing with semiconductor optical amplifiers.\nThe Cooling and Trapping (CAT) Laboratory of Professor Bigelow is focusing on topological excitations of a spinor Bose-Einstein condensate for fundamental understanding and for application to quantum metrology and information. The CAT group also has a leading program on the formation and control of ultra-cold polar molecules. Experimental and theoretical work spans a range of studies of nonlinear atom (and molecular) optics.\nProfessor Boyd is interested in studies of the nonlinear interaction of light with matter, in the use of nonlinear optics to control the group velocity of light, in the development of nanostructured materials with exotic optical properties, in the study of quantum states of light, and in the development of applications of these techniques.\nProfessor Eberly's group is involved in theoretical studies of nonclassical states of radiation, continuous quantum entanglement, optical dark-state solitons, and electron correlation in high-field ionization.\nProfessor Howell, whose full time appointment is now with Hebrew University, has interests are in experimental and theoretical studies of the foundations of quantum mechanics and in quantum information science. His studies include high transverse momentum-position and time-energy entanglement, slow and stopped light, low light level nonlinear optics and weak values.\nProfessor Jordan investigates the quantum theory of dynamics and measurement in condensed matter and optical contexts. He is involved in research of electron transport and fluctuations in mesoscopic systems, many-body quantum entanglement, quantum thermodynamics, and the foundations of quantum mechanics.\nProfessor Stroud's group carries out theoretical and experimental studies exploring the boundary between classical and quantum mechanics, and the ways in which the phenomena of quantum optics can lead to practical device applications.\nIn Memory of Professor Wolf : His research group carried out investigations chiefly in the theories of coherence and polarization of light, in inverse scattering, and also developed a theory for determining phases of diffracted beams in X-ray crystallography.",

(Approved) 50,000 USD\nSince January 2004: several UNESCO missions.\n2010 Report on the UNESCO Tehran Office Mission to Bam and its Cultural Landscape, 16-18 February 2010\nIn reply to the decisions taken by the World Heritage Committee in 2009 (Decision 33 COM 7A.22) the State Party submitted, on 29 January 2010, a comprehensive report on the activities undertaken at Bam and its Cultural Landscape; an updated Nomination file; and a proposal for the Statement of Outstanding Universal Value. The report was accompanied by a letter containing further information on the state of conservation of the property.\nThe updated Nomination file had been requested by the World Heritage Committee to ensure completeness, following the inscription of the property in 2004 according to the emergency procedure. The text contained in the original file concerned only a small part of the current property - the Citadel. Following a recommendation by ICOMOS, the World Heritage Committee subsequently decided to inscribe a much larger area, including the wider cultural landscape of Bam. As a result, it was necessary to update and complete the Nomination documents with information regarding this larger extent. This has now been done by the State Party.\nWith respect to the corrective measures identified by the World Heritage Committee, the State Party notes the following:\na) Further progress has been made during 2009 concerning the emergency conservation, extensive stabilization, and restoration of Arg-e-Bam area. This work concentrated on the remaining areas within the Citadel, and included emergency stabilization to prevent further structural collapse, debris removal, conservation and reconstruction.\nb) Archaeological finds, discovered during the removal of debris, have been conserved and documented.\nc) In January 2010, the Iranian Higher Council for Architecture and Urban Planning approved the Bam and its Cultural Landscape Comprehensive Management Plan as an Annex to the existing Bam Special Structural Master Plan for BamCity. This was developed, over a period of five years, with support from the UNESCO Japan Funds-in-Trust, and UNESCO Tehran Cluster Office.\nd) Regarding the precise definition of protective boundaries for the property, and following the approval by the World Heritage Committee of an extension to its buffer zone in 2007, archaeological studies and surveys of the cultural landscape have been completed. Currently, final drawings are being prepared.\ne) As reported in 2009, the measures taken to safeguard the property include the formation of a security unit with 11 permanent guards, equiped with vehicles, that has been operational since 2007.\nIn 2009, the State Party anticipated difficulties in completing the corrective measures approved by the World Heritage Committee by 2010, but did not offer an alternative proposal. The 2010 report, submitted by the State Party, does not provide any further clarification on this point.\nFinally, recent information provided by UNESCO Tehran Office following a mission to Bam carried out in February 2010 in the framework of the Funds-in-Trust projects, has drawn attention to some demolition work and encroachments within the property that appear not to be in line with planning controls and might have an impact on the Outstanding Universal Value of the property.\nAlthough it is clear that the rehabilitation of Bam and its Cultural landscape will require additional time and support, the World Heritage Centre and the Advisory Bodies note that most, if not all, of the identified corrective measures have been implemented, or are under way, thanks to the financial support provided through the Japanese and Italian-Funds-in-Trusts. The World Heritage Centre and the Advisory Bodies note that this is the first Iranian World Heritage Management Plan that was developed through a participatory approach.\nThe World Heritage Centre and the Advisory Bodies therefore consider that it would be justified to carry out a reactive monitoring mission to the property in late 2010 aimed at reviewing the current state of conservation, including the demolitions and encroachment within the property, as well as to verify whether the Desired state of conservation has been achieved. In the affirmative, the World Heritage Committee might consider removing the property from the List of World Heritage in Danger in 2011.\nBam and its Cultural Landscape (Islamic Republic of Iran) (C 1208)\n3. Notes with satisfaction the dedication and the determined efforts of the State Party, with the support of the international community, to implement the corrective measures for the conservation of the property;\n4. Also notes the submission of an updated nomination file on 29 January 2010 based on the property's boundaries approved in Decision 31 COM 8B.59;\n5.

Cataracts usually form gradually over time as you age, but in some cases, a cataract can develop quite rapidly. This eye disease happens typically when there are changes in the protein structures of the natural lens of the eyes over an extended period.\nThis extended period of time is the reason why it is normally experienced by the elderly, but, in some cases, even the younger generation can develop cataracts as well. Hereditary enzyme defects, genetic disease, eye trauma, previous eye surgery, overexposure to UV rays, smoking, and medications like steroids are just some of the factors that can cause early development of cataracts.\nThe most common sign that you may have cataracts are visual changes like increased nearsightedness, blurred vision, double vision in one eye, and oversensitivity to bright lights such as car headlights and sunlight. You may also see everything in less vibrant colors and need constant changes in your eyeglass prescription.\nHowever, the formation of cataracts varies from person to person, so the symptoms will differ, as well. Also, cataracts are known to develop gradually with no eye redness, pain, or other symptoms unless your case becomes significantly advanced. In this instance, you will need to consult with an eye expert in New Jersey to see if you will need a cataract surgery.\nBefore the surgery, you will be given an artificial lens called an IOL and will be prescribed with an eye drop to help prevent infection. And if you are taking medications, you may be asked to stop taking some of them before your surgery. You will also be asked not to eat any solid food at least six hours before your surgery.\nCataract removal is an outpatient procedure that can be done in a outpatient facility or hospital. The procedure takes about 15 minutes, depending on your case, but you will be in the surgery center for about two to two and a half hours. You will also be awake throughout the procedure, but don\u2019t worry \u2013 you will not feel a thing or see what the doctor is doing. You will be given a light sedative to make you comfortable. After the surgery, you will need to rest for 15 to 20 minutes in the recovery room before you can be discharged.\nBefore being discharged, you will be given thorough instructions from your doctor on how to take care of your eyes. Make sure to follow them religiously, and keep your post-op appointment the following day to avoid any complications.\nIs Otoplasty Right for You?\nThe Secret of 20/20 Vision",

        "raw_content": "Harrison County jobs stable in 2009, population rises\nHarrison County was one of just six counties in West Virginia to hold stable or add jobs from 2008 to 2009, according to a new study released in the Harrison County Economic Monitor, a publication of West Virginia University\u2019s College of Business and Economics. This publication is sponsored by the Harrison County Economic Alliance Corporation and the Harrison County Development Authority.\n\u201cHarrison County jobs were stable in 2009, but that was far better than the 2.3 percent job loss recorded by the state,\u201d said George W. Hammond, associate director of the WVU Bureau of Business and Economic Research. The nation lost jobs at an even faster pace (minus 4.3 percent) in 2009.\n\u201cHealth care and government generated the strongest job gains last year in Harrison County,\u201d Hammond said. However, job gains were offset by losses in wholesale and retail trade; manufacturing; professional and business services; and mining. While total jobs were stable during the year, Harrison County\u2019s unemployment rate rose from 3.8 percent in 2008 to 6.7 percent in 2009. Even so, the county rate remained well below the state (7.9 percent) and national (9.3 percent) rates.\nAccording to the latest census data, Harrison County added 313 residents during the past year and 862 residents since 2007. \u201cThis reflects the solid job gains during the period in the county and also the continuing investment in residential construction,\u201d Hammond concluded.\nHarrison County dinner costs run the gamut\nMost dinner ideas are centered around some type of meat (i.e. beef, chicken, pork or fish). For Harrison County residents in the first quarter of 2010, the price of dinner meats in comparison to other parts of the state varied from most to least expensive.\n\u201cThe cost of meat in Harrison County varied by type with steaks and canned tuna the most expensive in the state and sausage the least expensive.\u201d said Amy Higginbotham, economist at the WVU Bureau of Business and Economic Research and manager of the Harrison County ACCRA survey. \u201cWhile meat prices varied in the county, the average cost of living for the area remained below the national average\u201d Higginbotham concluded.\nMeat prices are among the approximately 60 goods and services submitted to the Council for Community and Economic Research for tabulation following a canvass of Harrison County businesses to collect pricing data. Harrison County\u2019s cost of living is estimated three times per year by BBER research personnel using a national methodology development by the C2ER, along with 308 other urban areas. The goods and services priced were typical of those purchased by professional and executive households in the top 20 percent of the income distribution.\n\u201cThe Harrison County Economic Monitor is part of an on-going effort by the Harrison County Development Authority to expand the economic information and analysis available for the county,\u201d said David Cutlip, president of the board of directors of the Harrison County Development Authority. Further details regarding the survey results can be found in the May 2010 issue of the Harrison County Economic Monitor.\nThe Harrison County Economic Monitor is published three times a year.

        "raw_content": "Earth Day \u2014 Past, Present and Future\nFor over 40 years, Earth Day has been celebrated in April as a way to raise awareness and promote action toward environmental issues. From global concerns to grassroots efforts, this event has had a profound effect on our environment. Learn about the history of Earth Day, how you can celebrate Mother Earth every day, and what the future holds.\nOrigins of Earth Day\nThe first Earth Day in 1970 was organized by Senator Gaylord Nelson during a time of heavy pollution, to draw environmental issues into the news, and therefore into the interest of legislators. That initial event, attended by 20 million people nationwide, spurred 28 major legislative enactments over the next 10 years, including the formation of the Environmental Protection Agency* and implementation of the Clean Water Act.* More than 40 years later, Earth Day continues to inspire us to take action.\nCelebrating Earth Day Today\nWhile legislative actions have greatly improved the health of our environment, individuals continue to have a significant influence on the future well being of our planet. Here are some small ways we can make a big impact.\nWe've all heard these tips before, but putting them into action really adds up. Turn off lights and electronics when not in use. Wait for a full load before running the dishwasher or washing machine. Be sure all vents and filters in heating and cooling systems, appliances, etc. are clean for maximum efficiency. Insulate around doors and windows and use shades or drapes to keep hot sun out in summer and cool air out in winter. Run appliances at off hours to allow replenishment of resources for peak-hours. The key is changing small habits to work toward big improvements.\nCutting our contribution to landfills is good for the environment. Use dishes and silverware at home, rather than paper plates and plastic utensils. Plan meals you can make ahead of time to cut down on the amount of takeout you order. This not only reduces packaging in landfills but also promotes a healthier diet. Switch to Online BillPay and electronic statements with your bank, utility companies and credit cards. You'll save on checks, stamps, and the need to file.\nThink twice before buying anything. Consider how often you'll use the product, where you'll store it, if something else will be tossed because of it, and if you'll be adding the product to a landfill anytime soon. Can you find a similar one that is used or recycled? That not only reduces waste but will probably save you money as well.\nWe live in a world of constant motion. Transporting yourself and your family to and from work and school, running errands, and taking vacations all use fuel that must be generated and creates waste for the environment. Try alternative transportation to work once in awhile \u2014 bike riding or carpooling, public transportation, or working from home occasionally. A small change in your commuting routine could inspire a long-term shift in habit.\nAnd remember anything you buy \u2014 food, electronics, clothing, automobiles, etc. \u2014 must be transported to local stores or to your home. Buy local when possible and think about whether or not you really need all the stuff you're buying.\nMaking changes in our lifestyle is the first step in preserving our earth. The next step is to repair the damage we've already done. Consider planting a tree or creating a wildlife habitat to attract birds and small animals that may have been displaced by construction. Join an environmental organization to make positive changes in your community. Encourage others to join the Earth Day movement year round. Most importantly, get outside and enjoy the great green earth that Mother Nature celebrates!",

        "title": "Pietro Mengoli (1626-1686)",
        "raw_content": "Pietro Mengoli\nBorn: 1626 in Bologna, Papal States (now Italy)\nDied: 1686 in Bologna, Papal States (now Italy)\nPietro Mengoli was taught mathematics by Cavalieri at the University of Bologna before he himself taught at Bologna from 1648. While he taught he studied for a doctorate in philosophy which was awarded by the University of Bologna in 1650. Continuing to study while he held chairs of mathematics, three years later he obtained a second doctorate in civil and canon law from Bologna. He was also ordained into the priesthood.\nAfter Cavalieri died in November 1647, Mengoli had been appointed to his chair at the University of Bologna. Mengoli held a number of chairs at the University of Bologna where he taught all his life. He was professor of arithmetic from 1648 to 1649, then professor of mechanics from 1649 to 1668 and, finally, professor of mathematics from 1668 until his death in 1686. In addition to these chairs he was also a priest in the parish of Santa Maria Maddelena in Bologna from 1660.\nHis role in the development of mathematics is described in [1]:-\nMengoli's mathematics was superficially conservative. He did not subscribe to the innovations of Torricelli, and his own discoveries were set out in abstruse Latin that made his works laborious to read. His books were nevertheless widely distributed in the seventeenth century, and were known to Collins, Wallis, and Leibniz; they were then almost forgotten, so that Mengoli's work has been studied again only recently. His significance to the history of science lies in the transitional position of his mathematics, midway between Cavalieri's method of indivisibles and Newton's fluxions and Leibniz's differentials.\nMengoli used infinite series to good effect in Novae quadraturae arithmeticae, seu de additione fractionum \u24c9 published in Bologna in 1650, developing ideas which had first been investigated by Cataldi. He begins with the summation of geometric series, then shows that the harmonic series does not converge. In doing so he became the first person to prove that it was possible for a series whose terms tend to zero to be made larger than any given number. He also investigated the harmonic series with alternating signs which he proved converges to log(2). This series was also investigated by Nicolaus Mercator.\nOther interesting results about series in Novae quadraturae arithmeticae \u24c9 include a study of the sum of reciprocals of the triangular numbers \u00bdn(n+1). Mengoli showed that\n1/3 + 1/6 + 1/10 + 1/15 + ... + 1/\u00bdn(n+1) = n-1/n+1.\nHe then argued that the difference 1 - n-1/n+1 could be made smaller than any given positive number by taking n large enough so the sum of the series was 1. He then showed that\n1/1+r + 1/2(2+r) + 1/3(3+r) + ... = (1 + 1/2+ 1/3+ ... + 1/r)/r\nHence for r = 1, 2, 3, ... , 10 Mengoli showed that the series whose nth term is 1/n(n+r) converges having sum S where\nr = 1, S = 1\nr = 2, S = 3/4\nr = 3, S = 11/18\nr = 5, S = 137/300\nr = 6, S = 49/120\nr = 8, S = 761/2240\nr = 9, S = 7129/22680\nr = 10, S = 7381/25200\nHe also showed that the series whose nth term was 1/n(n+1)(n+2) converges with sum 1/4. However, perhaps not surprisingly, he failed to be able to sum the series whose nth term is 1/n2.\nMengoli also wrote Geometriae speciosae elementa \u24c9 (1659) on limits of geometrical figures. This work, which is examined in detail in [10], is particularly interesting for it contains a definition of a definite integral in terms of the area of a plane figure rigorously given by constructing circumscribing and inscribing parallelograms which sum to equal limits. He defines limits of positive variable quantities using ideas that he had used in looking at limits of series. He called a positive variable quantity quasi-infinite if it could be made larger than any given number, quasi-nil if it could be made smaller than any given positive number, and quasi-a if it could be made smaller than any number greater than a and greater than any number less than a. By examining the limits of sums, products and quotients of variable quantities, Mengoli was setting up the basic rules if the calculus thirty years before Newton and Leibniz. Both of these were influenced by his contribution, in the case of Leibniz the influence was direct as he read Mengoli's work while in the case of Newton he knew of it indirectly through studying Wallis.\nIn Circolo (1672) Mengoli found an infinite product expansion for \u03c0/2. He also computed the definite integral from 0 to 1 of xm/2(1 - x)n/2.\nOther work by Mengoli included work on astronomy, work on refraction in the atmosphere and a book Speculazioni musicali (1670) on the theory of music. In this Mengoli's criticises of the theory of resonance set out by Galileo. For details of this work see [9] where the author describes the \"amazing\" assumption that the human ear has two drums and places this idea in the context of Mengoli's natural philosophy.\nThe paper [11] examines correspondence by Mengoli in which he discusses problems due to Ozanam. This gives new insight into Mengoli's mathematics. The authors:-\n... analyse a little-known aspect of Pietro Mengoli's mathematical activity: the difficulties he faced in trying to solve some problems in Diophantine analysis suggested by J Ozanam. Mengoli's recently published correspondence reveals how he cherished his prestige as a scholar. At the same time, however, it also shows that his insufficient familiarity with algebraic methods prevented him, as well as other Italian mathematicians of his time, from solving the so-called 'French' problems.\nA Poster of Pietro Mengoli\nhttp://www-history.mcs.st-andrews.ac.uk/Biographies/Mengoli.html",

Meetings are held in different locations each year. This makes it more convenient for members and observers from different regions of the US (and abroad) to attend. Anyone interested in the AAVSO and its activities is invited and encouraged to participate in our meetings.\nAAVSO Annual Meeting 2018\nAAVSO meetings provide members, observers, and interested guests with an opportunity to present their own research on variable stars and related topics.

        "raw_content": "Feature Article: Extending the Energy Account Time Series Stage 1 (Feature Article)\nHouseholds' energy bills rival manufacturing industries' (Media Release)\nThe Energy Account Australia (EAA) provides statistics to monitor changes in the supply and use of energy over time, both from an economic and an environmental perspective. The EAA forms part of a suite of environmental-economic accounts being developed for Australia.\nAustralia's energy at a glance\nEnergy intensity for all industries (measured in GJ/$m IGVA) remained constant from 2012-13 to 2013-14.\nAustralia's net energy input decreased slightly to approximately 21,000 PJ in 2013-14 from 21,700 PJ in 2012-13.\nHousehold energy consumption per capita decreased by 0.7% (0.3 GJ) from 202-13 to 2013-14.\nThe total intermediate use of energy products by Australian industry in 2013-14 was $110 billion.\nThe extraction rate of energy resources in 2013-14 ranged between 9.2% of economic demonstrated crude oil and 0.2% of brown coal.\nThe diagram below presents an overview of key data and details the scope of the EAA by showing the supply and use system of energy components through the economy.\nFIGURE 1.1 SUPPLY AND USE, BY COMPONENTS - 2013-14\nThe energy data contained in this publication are produced in accordance with the principles outlined in the System of Environmental-Economic Accounting (SEEA), using a supply-use framework. Further detail on supply and use frameworks is contained in the Explanatory Notes.\nData on physical supply and use of energy products are primarily derived from the Department of Industry, Innovation and Science publication, Australian Energy Statistics (AES), 2015. Information gathered from this government agency are supplemented by ABS surveys which collect price and volume information. ABS uses the SEEA to transform AES into a framework consistent with the System of National Accounts (SNA), enabling linkages between energy supply, energy use and monetary data from the Australian National Accounts.\nAustralia\u2019s total net supply was approximately 21,000 PJ in 2013-14, a decrease of 3% from the previous year. The majority of total net supply was produced domestically (90%) and the remainder was imported (10%). Domestic production decreased by 4% from the previous year. The main driver was a decrease in the production of uranium, which fell by 1,584 PJ or 38% due to major disruptions to uranium mining operations and a decrease in demand in the global uranium market.\nEnergy decoupling\nEnergy decoupling occurs when the rate of change of energy use is lower than the rate of change of economic activity. Figure 1.2 shows some decoupling of domestic energy use from GDP prior to 2010-11 but from 2010-11 to 2012-13 energy use growth was higher than GDP growth. 2013-14 potentially showed a return to the decoupling pattern though this decrease in energy growth is mainly due to a major shift in uranium mining operations and export.\nAnnotation(s): Index 100 = 2008-09\nFootnote(s): (a) Chain Volume Measures\nSource(s): Energy Account, Australia\nOther whole-of-economy indicators are available in the Energy Indicators data cube under the 'Downloads' tab:\nDegree of self sufficiency\nNet energy use index\nShare of renewable energy in net energy inputs\nGDP, chain volume series index.\nCapital investment (gross fixed capital formation) by energy industries\nInternational investment of energy industries\nContribution to growth in productivity from the use of energy\nEmployment in energy industries\nThe energy intensity of an industry is a measure of the energy consumed to produce one unit of economic output. The unit of measurement used in the following graphs and commentary for each industry is gigajoules (GJ) of energy consumed per millions of dollars of Industry Gross Value Added (GJ/$m IGVA). A higher energy intensity figure does not necessarily imply that an industry is using energy inefficiently. Differences in energy intensity between industries reflect different production processes and the share of energy within the production input mix. In particular, most industries engaged in physical transformation of raw materials will use more energy than service industries.\nEnergy intensity for all selected industries remained relatively constant, 2012-13 (2,495 GJ/$m IGVA) and 2013-14 (2,461 GJ/$m IGVA).\nManufacturing is the most energy intensive industry but decreased by 3% from 2012-13 to 9,693 GJ/$m IGVA.\nBetween 2002-03 and 2013-14 energy intensity for all selected industries decreased by 14%.\nFurther details on energy intensity are contained in the Explanatory Notes.\nThe energy intensity of Australian industries fell by 9% between 2002-03 and 2013-14. Despite this, Agriculture, Construction and Commercial and services were the only individual industries to show increases in energy intensity over this period. Australia\u2019s most energy intensive industries in 2013-14 were Manufacturing (9,693 GJ/$m IGVA), Transport (8,399 GJ/$m IGVA) and Mining (3,704 GJ/$m IGVA), while the least energy intensive industries in 2013-14 were Construction (1,509 GJ/$m IGVA) and Commercial and Services (537 GJ/$m IGVA).\nTable 1.1 ENERGY INTENSITY, 2008-09 to 2013-14\nGJ/$m IGVA\nWater Supply and Waste services\nCommercial and Services\nAll selected industries\nEnergy use per household is affected by a number of factors, including economic (increases in energy costs), technological (increase in take up of photovoltaic and thermal solar energy generation), energy conservation measures (insulation and energy audits), as well as increased energy efficiency of household appliances. Structural changes also have an impact on households over a longer period. For example, the household demographic trend toward more single person households should drive down energy use per household, while being countered by a trend towards larger four or more bedroom houses which consume more energy for heating and cooling.\nEnergy use per Australian household decreased by 1 GJ from 2012-13 to 2013-14 at the same time as the number of households increased by approximately 165,000.\nSince 2002-03, energy use per capita has decreased by 5% and per household by 7%\nThe total energy use by Australian households has increased by 13% from 2002-03 to 2013-14, while the number of Australian households increased by 21% and the population grew 19%.\nHousehold renewable energy extraction has increased by 38% from 2002-03 to 2013-14 including an increase of 5% from 2012-13 to 2013-14.\nPHYSICAL ENERGY SUPPLY\nThe energy supply tables present data on the supply of energy products for each year from 2002-03 to 2013-14. Net supply consists of energy products as they enter the economy, either by saleable energy products (e.g. mining production) or as imports.\nThe headline measure from the net supply tables is net energy supply, defined as all net energy inputs from domestic sources and imports. Net energy input include losses from generation, transmission and other sources and represents all energy entering the economy without any double counting.\nAustralia's net energy supply was approximately 21,000 PJ in 2013-14, a decrease of 3% from the previous year.\nBlack coal production increased by 8% from 2012-13 and exports of black coal increased by 12% from 2012-13.\nUranium production decreased by 1,584 PJ, or 38%.\nCrude oil and refinery feedstock imports account for 58% of all energy imports.\nThe Mining industry was the main producer of energy in 2013-14 (17,937 PJ or 85%). Net energy supply by industries and imports decreased by 3% from 2011-12 to 2012-13. Household extraction of energy, although shown separately, has been included in the totals of relevant industries in keeping with SNA and SEEA treatment of household production (see explanatory notes for more detail).\nBlack coal accounts for 56% of domestic production. Black coal production increased by 905 PJ (8%) from 2012-13 to 2013-14. This increase in black coal production was reflected in the black coal exports, which increased from 2012-13 (by 1,111 PJ or 12%). There was a decrease in crude oil and refinery feedstock production from 2013-14 (by 111 PJ or 6%). Imports of this product also decreased in 2013-14 from 2012-13 (by 64 PJ or 6%).\nTotal imports decreased by 26 PJ in 2013-14 from 2012-13. The main imports in 2013-14 were crude oil and refinery feedstock (1,096 PJ or 53% of all energy imports) and diesel (525 PJ or 25% of all energy imports, up from 483 PJ or 23% in 2012-13).\nRenewable energy extraction increased by 5 PJ from 2012-13 to 2013-14 and remains at 2% of total domestic energy production. From 2012-13 to 2013-14 solar energy extraction increased (by 4 PJ or 14%), while hydro-electricity supply, which fluctuates according to water availability, remained relatively stable with an increase of 1 PJ (or 1%). Wind energy extraction increased in 2013-14 from 2012-13 (by 8 PJ or 29%).\nFootnote(s): (a) Includes Forestry and Fishing; (b) Includes Gas, Water supply and Waste services; (c) Includes Construction, Transport and Commercial and services industries.\nTABLE 1.2 NET PHYSICAL SUPPLY OF ENERGY PRODUCTS, DIRECT EXTRACTION FROM THE ENVIRONMENT AND IMPORTS, 2013-14 - ENERGY UNITS\nElectricity, gas, water and waste\nTotal direct extraction\n(a) includes supply by households\nPHYSICAL ENERGY DEMAND\nThe energy use tables present data on the use of energy products for 2002-03 to 2013-14. Net use consists of intermediate consumption by industry and government; final consumption by households; exports; inventory changes and statistical discrepancy; and conversions and losses.\nAustralia's total use of energy decreased by 3% from 2012-13 to 2013-14.\nAustralia\u2019s domestic energy consumption (i.e. industry and government, and household energy use, excluding exports) was 4,054 PJ in 2013-14, an increase of 43 PJ from 2012-13.\nIndustry energy use was 3,000 PJ, an increase of 25 PJ from 2012-13, accounting for 15% of total net energy use. The main fuel sources were diesel (783 PJ or 27%), electricity (644 PJ or 22%) and natural gas (614 PJ or 21%).\nGovernment energy use, included in total industry use was 82 PJ or 2% of total domestic energy use in 2013-14.\nHousehold total energy use was 1,054 PJ, an increase of 16 PJ from 2012-13, representing a 5% share of total net energy use.\nFootnote(s): (a) 'Other refined products' includes petrol, diesel, aviation fuel, kerosene, heating oil, refinery fuel and naptha; (b) 'Renewables' includes biomass wood, bagasse, biofuels, hydro-electricity, solar and wind energy. .\nThe export market accounts for 83% of Australian energy extraction. Energy exports in 2013-14 were approximately 15,718 PJ, an increase of 2% from 2012-13. Australia\u2019s main exports were black coal (10,578 PJ or 67%), uranium (3,149 PJ or 20%) and natural gas (1,267 PJ or 8%).\nBetween 2012-13 and 2013-14 exports of black coal rose (by 1,111 PJ or 12%), uranium exports decreased (by 794 PJ or 20%), natural gas exports decreased (by 12 PJ or 1%) and crude oil and feedstock exports fell (by 39 PJ or 6%). Black coal exports accounted for 67% of total energy exports and 90% of black coal production.\nHouseholds were the largest domestic consumer of energy (1,054 PJ or 26%) in 2013-14. The main energy sources were petrol (44%), electricity (19%) and natural gas (15%). Petrol consumption by households remained stable compared with 2012-13, while diesel use increased by 17 PJ (16%). Between 2012-13 and 2013-14 household use of natural gas increased (by 4 PJ or 3%) and household use of electricity decreased (by 8 PJ or 4%).\nThe Manufacturing industry was the largest industrial consumer of energy (987 PJ or 24%), a decrease from 2012-13 (of 44 PJ or 4%). The manufacture of Non-ferrous metals accounted for 38% of Manufacturing energy use. Other major contributors were Petroleum and chemical products (20%), Food, beverages, textiles (18%) and Other manufacturing products (13%).\nThe Transport industry was the second largest industrial consumer of domestic energy (657 PJ or 16%), an increase from 2013-14 (of 22 PJ or 4%). The largest components of transport energy use were 'other refined fuels and products' (325 PJ or 50%), which increased by 6% from 2012-13, and diesel (265 PJ or 40%).\nGeneral Government activities are included within industry estimates. In 2013-14 estimates of energy use by Government in the economy accounted for 82 PJ (2%) of total domestic use. The main energy source was electricity (50%).\nThe main fuels consumed domestically in Australia were electricity (888 PJ or 22%), diesel (916 PJ or 23%), natural gas (782 PJ or 19%) and petrol (626 PJ or 15%). Between 2012-13 and 2013-14 the use of diesel increased by 45 PJ while petrol use decreased by 6 PJ. The domestic consumption of natural gas increased by 18 PJ or 2% while electricity increased by 1 PJ from 2012-13.\nLosses and conversions occur in the transformation of fossil fuels and organic waste into electricity and biofuels, and crude oil into LPG and petroleum products, and coal into coke and coal by-products in steel making. Net losses and conversions accounted for 1,827 PJ in 2013-14.\nFootnote(s): (a) Includes Forestry and Fishing; (b) Includes Gas supply, Water supply and Waste services; (c) Includes Government use\nFootnote(s): (a) 'Other refined products' includes aviation fuel, kerosene, heating oil, refinery fuel and naptha\nTABLE 1.3 NET USE OF ENERGY PRODUCTS, (2012-13) - ENERGY UNITS\nGovernment use (a)\nTotal industry use\nConversions and losses\nTotal net use\nNet use by households\n(a) General government use only.

The net physical tables and these monetary tables are compiled on a different basis and should not be directly combined for analytical purposes. The Hybrid Energy Account in this publication is recommended as a coherent presentation of physical and monetary energy data.\nAustralia's total supply (outputs) of energy products at basic prices was valued at $177 billion in 2013-14, a 5% increase from 2012-13.\nAustralia's demand (inputs) for energy products in productive activities, as measured by total intermediate use of energy products, increased by 9% to $110 billion 2013-14. In comparison, household consumption of energy products cost $47 billion, an increase of 5% from 2012-13.\nMonetary Energy Supply\nThe Mining industry supplied the most energy product value to the Australian economy in 2013-14 with a value of $84 billion, or 47% of the total Australian energy production at basic prices. This was a 4% increase from 2012-13. Of this $84 billion, 51% was attributed to the value of coal production while gas and oil contribute 27% and 21% respectively.\nThe second highest contributor of energy value to the economy in 2013-14 was the Manufacturing industry, with $31 billion or 17% of Australia's total energy product value. The vast majority of this value (85%) was from petrol and diesel which were valued at $25 billion in 2013-14.\nEnergy product imports were valued at $39 billion in 2013-14 which was 17% of the total Australian energy product total value and an 11% increase from 2012-13. Approximately 45% ($18 billion) was from imported oil products.\nFootnote(s): (a) 'Coal by-products' include blast furnace gas, coal tar, benzene/toluene/xylene feedstock and coal oven gas; (b) 'Other refined products' includes aviation fuel, kerosene, heating oil, fuel oil, refinery oil and naptha; (c) 'Renewables' includes biomass wood, bagasse, biofuels, hydroelectricity, solar and wind energy.\nFootnote(s): (a) The remaining resource life of a product at current production rates.\nMonetary Energy Use\nThe biggest domestic purchaser of energy products in 2013-14 was households. Household final consumption expenditure on energy products was $47 billion, 30% of total domestic energy products and a 5% increase from 2012-13. Expenditure on petroleum products was 53% of this total, while 13% was on natural gas.\nThe Manufacturing industry had the highest industrial expenditure on energy products in Australia in 2013-14. Manufacturing used $37 billion worth of energy products, or 24% of total domestic energy products. This was a 7% increase from 2012-13. Oil accounted for $21 billion (56%) while electricity generation and the use of gas used $7 billion (18%) and $6 billion (17%) respectively.\nAustralia's energy product exports were worth $72 billion in 2013-14, a 4% increase from 2012-13. Coal exports accounted for $40 billion (56%) of these exports. Australia also exported significant quantities of gas and oil in 2013-14, which were worth $18 billion and $11 billion respectively.\nFootnote(s): (a) Includes Gas, Water Supply and Waste Services\nFootnote(s): (a) Black and brown coal; (b) Natural, LPG and Industrial Gases including coal seam gas; (c) Crude oil including condensate; (d) Kerosene (including kerosene type jet fuel), automotive petrol, petrodiesel, and gas oil or fuels n.e.c.; (e) Electricity generated from fossil fuels, hydro-electricity and electricity generation n.e.c.\nENERGY HYBRID ACCOUNTS\nHybrid supply-use tables combine EAA gross physical supply-use information with monetary information from National Accounts Input-Output tables. These two sets of information fit together because they both measure supply and use on a transactional basis with sufficient product detail to allow direct comparison. Hybrid energy tables allow for simultaneous analysis of physical and monetary energy flows. The 2013-14 EAA hybrid tables cover the period from 2008-09 to 2012-13.\nFalling prices meant that while the Mining industry supplied 11% more energy in 2012-13 than 2011-12, that production was worth 11% less in monetary terms.\nRising household electricity prices meant a 61% increase in household electricity costs from 2008-09 to 2012-13 despite an 4% decrease in the volume of electricity used by households.\nThe Mining industry was the largest supplier of energy in 2012-13, supplying 19,622 PJ of total energy worth $75 billion.While this was a 1,956 PJ or 11% increase on 2011-12 volumes, the value of energy supplied by the industry fell by 11% or $9 billion.\nBlack coal supply increased by 9% or 905 PJ from 2011-12 to 2012-13. However, the value of black coal supply fell by 19% or $9 billion due to falling prices.\nImports of crude oil and petroleum products (petrol, diesel and other refined fuels) were valued at $17 billion each. Together these two products comprised 96% of the value of energy products imported ($35 billion) into Australia in 2012-13.\nThe value of household electricity consumption increased by 12% or $2 billion from 2011-12 to 2012-13. From 2008-09 to 2012-13 the value of electricity used by households increased by 61% or $6 billion while the volume used decreased by 4% or 8 PJ.\nIn 2012-13 black coal use (including exports) was valued at $42 billion, making it the most valuable contributor (20%) to total use of energy products. Exports of black coal were $39 billion, which was over 55% of the total value of Australian exports of energy products. In 2012-13 the volume of black coal exported increased by 11% or 970 PJ from 2011-12, while the value of black coal exports decreased by 19% or $9 billion.\nIn 2012-13 the Mining industry was the largest user (1,363 PJ or 51%) of natural gas, which included conversion of natural gas into liquified natural gas. The value of this gas use was $412 million. Other large natural gas users were the Manufacturing industry (675 PJ, 25%), Electricity Supply industry (415 PJ, 15%), and households (155 PJ, 6%). The value of this gas use was $5 billion, $1 billion and $4 billion respectively.\nAll domestic use of crude oil and feedstock occurs in production of petroleum and chemical products. Domestic use of crude oil and feedstock was valued at $22 billion while exports were valued at $11 billion in 2012-13.\nIn 2012-13, the largest consumer of petrol was households, 482 PJ, which comprised 73% of total use of petrol. The value of petrol use was $20 billion, a decrease of less than 1% from 2011-12.\nENERGY ASSET ACCOUNT\nEnvironmental assets are best defined as those resources available for harvesting from the environment. These assets are commonly called Economic Demonstrated Resources (EDR) and are distinct from those that are too difficult to access with current technology and any hypothetical resources that may exist.\nPhysical black coal stocks increased by 1% from 2012-13 to 2013-14 and are valued at $91 billion.\nThe remaining resource life of crude oil is 11 years at current production rates.\nThe annual extraction rate of black coal increased by 4% from 2012-13 to 2013-14.\nAt 2013-14 production levels there are, at maximum and not counting new discoveries, 663 years of brown coal remaining. Shorter term energy source EDR assets range from 11 years (Crude Oil) to 50 years (Natural gas) and 231 years (Uranium oxides). The extraction rate of energy resources measures the rate of removal of a resource compared to the EDR.\nIn the EAA physical energy assets are limited to coal, crude oil, condensate, industrial gases and uranium oxides. In 2013-14 known levels of black coal resources increased by 1% (1,663,200 PJ to 1,676,700 PJ) while brown coal remained the same. Crude oil and LPG stocks increased by 11% and 12% respectively, while all other stocks EDR stocks fell.\nCondensate stocks were valued at $209 billion in 2013-14, an increase of $29 billion or 16% from 2012-13. Black coal stocks which increased by 1% from 2012-13 experienced a fall in value of 33% from $136 billion to $91 billion. Natural gas stock increased in value by 15% while uranium stock value decreased by 40%.\nTABLE 1.4 ENERGY ASSETS, ECONOMICALLY DEMONSTRATED RESOURCES, AS AT JUNE 2014\nClosing stock (PJ)\nSource: Australian System of National Accounts, 2013-14, ABS cat. no. 5204.0\nTABLE 1.5 ENERGY ASSETS, ECONOMICALLY DEMONSTRATED RESOURCES, NET PRESENT VALUE, AUSTRALIA, AS AT JUNE 2014\nClosing stock ($m)\nTABLE 1.6 ENERGY ASSETS INDICATORS, AUSTRALIA, AS AT JUNE 2014\nExtraction rate (% of EDR) (a)\nEstimated resource life remaining (years)\n(a) The rate at which physical removal of energy resources occurs from the energy deposits which occur naturally.",

        "title": "Fitness, Acne, Alcohol, and More: Teen Health Issues",
        "raw_content": "Transitioning from adolescence to a teenager can appear daunting at first, especially with hormonal fluctuation, academic demands, and social pressures. Life changes at a rapid pace once puberty hits, and new urges, feelings and even acne emerge that were never once previously experienced. Even school education starts addressing specific issues, such as drug and alcohol consumption on campus, abstinence and sexuality, and remaining vigilant of one\u2019s surroundings. As we age, our bodies change and this can sway our mentality and attitudes towards life. Use the following guide to help make the right decisions when faced with issues dealing with personal hygiene, drugs and alcohol, fitness and nutrition, sexual health, safety, and mental well-being.\nTaking Care of Your Body:\nTaking the necessary steps towards good personal hygiene will not only lead to better health, but it will build self-esteem and pride. In fact, staying committed to a healthy sleep schedule, nutritious meal plan, fitness regimen, hair care, finger and toe nail care, skin care, and oral hygiene will allow you to focus on bigger achievements. Ambition leads to success and ultimately a fulfilling life if determined to see all goals to the end. Sleep deprivation, lack of nutrition, fitness, and cosmetic care shows problems stemming inwards that should not be left unchecked. The first step towards loving others involves loving oneself, and there\u2019s no better way to demonstrate that than to pamper one\u2019s physical body.\nAdolescent Sleep: Adolescents and teenagers need sufficient sleep to allow their bodies to fully mature. Good sleep hygiene refers to the practice of intentionally getting enough sleep to ensure all of the changes hormonal changes occur without disruption.\nAdolescent Hygiene Basics (PDF): An extensive guide providing the essentials behind the basics of adolescent hygiene, including tips for oily hair, body hair, perspiration and odors, oral hygiene, and nutrition intake.\nTeens and Menstruation: Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) regarding teenager transition after receiving their first menstruation cycle, including hygiene tips and other suggestions to self-care.\nTeen Nutrition for all the Right Reasons (PDF): A general brochure on eating healthy and getting active in order to restore health during crucial growing periods.\nPeer pressure can lead to a series of problems, including drugs and alcohol consumption. Drugs and alcohol can derail one\u2019s ambitions by instilling apathy towards academic benchmarks, family life, and one\u2019s future. Over-consumption of drugs and alcohol can lead towards to serious academic problems, interpersonal turmoil, low self-worth, troubles with the law, and even death if in the wrong place at the wrong time. Everybody wants to fit in with the popular crowd, but if it means sacrificing one\u2019s own integrity for acceptance into a group, then perhaps those people do not really care about each other. True friends will stick around regardless if they do not give into peer pressure.\nAdolescent Alcohol and Drug Abuse: A list of quick facts addressing adolescent alcohol and drug abuse, including familial habits, denial, family roles, warning signs, and family therapy to overcome these additions.\nYoung Drivers and Alcohol: Young drivers and binge drinking has caused severe problems on the road. This web page offers some advice to curtailing potential fatalities due to adolescents succumbing to peer pressure.\nDrugs and Alcohol Abuse in Children: An array of resources about childhood and teenage drug and alcohol abuse, including the Task Force on College Drinking, Partnership for a Drug-Free America, National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism, Office of National Drug Control Policy, and Parenting Guidelines for Adolescent Alcohol Use.\nPeer Pressure During Adolescence: An authoritative resource covering why adolescents succumb to peer pressure and how it affects the teenagers physical and mental health.\nThe Effects of Drugs and Alcohol on Academic Life (PDF): An extensive article covering the negative effects of drugs and alcohol on a students academic performance. In fact, studies conducted link drug and alcohol consumption with college dropouts, violence, and death on campus.\nFitness and nutrition are becoming an increasing problem for today\u2019s teens. Physical education courses and joining a sports team can help devote one\u2019s time to healthy eating and physical activity; however, not everybody can compete athletically, which means some students will need to find the motivation to exercise and eat right without a coach. Teenagers can talk to their parents about meal plans, and may choose to play sports with the neighborhood after school hours. In fact, parents and educators should convey this message as often as possible, because these two factors towards healthy living have greatly declined over time due to technological advances, such as the Internet and video games.\nTeen Esteem: Teen Esteem, a program dedicated to young, teenage girls looking for an alternative to physical education, focuses on exercise, nutrition, cardiovascular health, and self-esteem.

One of the issues experienced in hormonal fluctuation can be acne. Many people use different solutions on how to get rid of acne but be wise as their are many options out there. Also, certain feelings and questions will arise in the minds of young adults, including losing one\u2019s virginity, masturbation, condom use, safe sex, sexual anatomy, and sexual orientation/identification. Teen sexuality can trouble parents and educators if kids start having kids. Unprotected sex can also pose problems due to the prospect of spreading sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). Every educational institution should have courses promoting safe sexual health. Teenagers should be aware that some clinics offer free condoms, so there is no reason to engage in unprotected sex.\nFrequently Asked Sexuality Questions to the Kinsey Institute: The Kinsey Institute provides information regarding frequently asked sexuality questions covering across a wide array of subject matter, including virginity, condom use, masturbation, sexual fetishes, sexually transmitted diseases, lesbian, gay, bisexual, and homosexual relations, and sexual anatomy.\nSafer Sex Resources: A comprehensive, up-to-date resource web page offering resources for teenagers to learn about practicing safer sex, including the benefits and possible consequences of neglecting to engage in this practice if sexually active.\nTeen Safety:\nThe Internet has offered bountiful information and mediums of exchange unparalleled in history. Social networking allows people to connect and form friendships and relationships in less than a click of a mouse. However, the Internet carries all of the dangers that the real world has to offer, including bullies, stalkers, and sexual predators. Teenagers need to beware when engaging with unknown people on the Internet, and even known acquaintances can ruin relationships if given the chance. Therefore, it\u2019s important to chooses friends wisely, and refrain from meeting people offline without the supervision of an adult. Other safety issues may involve inexperienced driving, gang activity on campus, and violence. Safety involves a couple of factors, including smart decision making and vigilance to one\u2019s surroundings.\nFeeling Safe At School? (PDF): A fact sheet covering statistical data about school safety for children of all ages. The focus includes the overall feeling of safety in a school environment for the general school populace.\nA large percentage of teenagers will experience setbacks in their lives. Some of these setbacks can greatly affect their mental health. If there are problems involving traumatic experiences, then one should seek out a guidance counselor or alert parental figures about seeing a professional. There could be signs and symptoms of mental disorders that should be immediately treated, otherwise situations could arise that will make life difficult. The severity of mental disorders varies with each person, and can only be diagnosed by a qualified professional. Self-medicating can actually worsen depression, according to a study conducted by the University of Chicago, so it\u2019s better seek out help to make life easier.\nMental Health Disorders in Children and Teens: A brief article covering statistical data regarding mental and behavioral disorders in today\u2019s youth. About 3.7% of adolescents and teenagers experience depression between the ages of 8 and 15, while 8.6% of youth in the same age range suffer from anxiety disorders.\nMental Health Disorders in Teens: An extensive article addressing mental health and behavior disorders in teenagers, including attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, conduct disorder, oppositional defiant disorder, teen suicide, adjustment disorders, and Tourette\u2019s syndrome.\nBipolar Disorder in Children and Teens: A Parent\u2019s Guide (PDF): A 27-page document detailing the affliction of bipolar disorder in children and teens.

        "raw_content": "The Importance of Sportsmanship | A Plea from an Adult Amateur\nSince the first time I walked into a show ring, I have always been taught how showing is much more than blue ribbons, bows and having the most expensive horse. Like most things in life, sportsmanship is a HUGE part of riding and an even larger part of showing.\nI grew up with the most inspirational people in my life teaching me about the importance of sportsmanship. Andrea Duffy, my amazing trainer to this day; and Lawson Mayfield, my barn mate, role model, and the older sister I will always remember. To this day, I think of how lucky I am to have had them in my life to demonstrate sportsmanship in and out of the ring.\nI remember once I was watching Lawson show in the Junior Hunters. After her round, I thought \u201cShe just won this class!\u201d But when listening to the announcements, she was placed second. I spoke with her back at the barn about the class. I can still hear to this day Lawson say, \u201cI am happy with how I rode and even happier with how my horses performed. That is what\u2019s most important. The ribbons are just a bonus.\u201d This was just one of the many occasions where Lawson taught the art of sportsmanship by example.\n\u201cI am happy with how I rode and even happier with how my horses performed. That is what\u2019s most important. The ribbons are just a bonus.\u201d\nI had just finished my round. I was very excited, this was my first show as an adult amateur rider in the A circuit. When I walked out of the ring, many other adult riders congratulated me on my round. I walked straight over to Andrea, my trainer, and stated how nice all the riders had been. It was encouraging to me to see other adult amateurs working hard and demonstrating such great sportsmanship. Even as adults, these riders were still very much in love with our sport.\nSportsmanship isn\u2019t taught like it used to be. As adult amateur riders, we need to set an example to the younger girls. We decide how to treat each other at the ring. We decide how to treat our horses, our partners. This is our sport after all. You aren\u2019t always going to have the perfect ride, the most expensive horse in the ring, or the most ribbons hanging on your stall door. You will never be able to control the outcome of a show day. Trust me, I\u2019ve experienced this first hand plenty of times. However, here\u2019s what you can control. How hard you try, how you treat others, and how to take mistakes as learning experiences. Taking control of these won\u2019t be easy, but I have faith in you. Just remember, at the end of the day, we are all trying to achieve the same thing. Being the best we can be in the sport we love with the horses that have stolen our hearts.\n(c) Victoria DeMore Photography\nLawson would be proud of the young lady you have grown into Alexis, she was special just like you are. Keep working hard.\nThank you so much D \u2764\ufe0f\nI remember when I was a teenager and Lawson was like 10 or so and training with Andrea when she was at Coventry before she got her barn. She was always such a delight and really, truly loved horses.\nThe way this sport is taught has changed so dramatically since we were kids. I hope we can get back to teaching horsemanship first and foremost again.\nI agree completely!!! \u2764\ufe0f",

        "raw_content": "DJI Introduces Knowledge Quiz For Drone Pilots In The U.K.\nCompany Says Test Is The Latest Step In DJI\u2019s Long Commitment To Improving Drone Safety\nDJI has introduced a knowledge quiz applicable to all pilots who are operating drones in U.K. airspace. The test comes prior to government plans to introduce a safety awareness test for drone users in 2018. A recent survey carried out by the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) revealed that 27% of those planning to buy a drone over the Christmas period are unaware of the rules surrounding their usage in the U.K..\nThe new DJI Knowledge Quiz will require drone pilots in the U.K. to correctly answer a series of basic questions about safe drone use before their first flights. The questions will appear in DJI GO 4, DJI\u2019s main flight app, which runs on smartphones and tablets connected to drone remote controllers.\n\u201cThe vast majority of drone pilots fly safely and responsibly, but with drone usage bound to increase substantially in the coming years, new enthusiasts will use our technology,\" said Christian Struwe, Head of European Public Policy at DJI. \u201cGovernments, aviation authorities and drone manufacturers agree that we need to work together to ensure that all drone pilots know basic safety rules.\"\n\u201cAnyone operating a drone must do so responsibly and observe all relevant rules and regulations,\" said Tim Johnson, Policy Director at the U.K. Civil Aviation Authority. \"The rules for flying drones are designed to keep all airspace users safe. We welcome any initiative that reinforces the importance of safe and responsible drone use.\u201d\nAll DJI pilots will be presented with a list of eight questions and must correctly answer all of them in order to be able to fly. Pilots can continue answering new questions until they successfully pass the DJI Knowledge Quiz. DJI launched the quiz in the United States earlier this year backed by the FAA. It will be expanded to other countries in the near future, using questions customised for each country\u2019s rules and guidelines.\nARPAS-U.K., the professional trade association for Remotely Piloted Aircraft and Systems, welcomed the introduction of DJI\u2019s Knowledge Quiz: \u201cWe fully support DJI's new GO4 app feature, giving users the opportunity to demonstrate their understanding of the local laws & commitment to fly-safe when operating UAV/Drones in the U.K.\".\nThe Knowledge Quiz is the latest step in DJI\u2019s long commitment to improving drone safety with technological and educational solutions.\n(Source: DJI news release.

        "raw_content": "Private and Collective Memory\nLa Triennale di Milano boasts almost 150 photographs and photo books, belonging to a private collection. The Donata Pizzi Collection is now revealing one of the widest representation of Italian women photographers ever exhibited in the last 20 years. The collection comprises works taken by 50 practitioners from different generations, ranging from the pioneering work of Paola Agosti, Letizia Battaglia, Lisetta Carmi, Carla Cerati, Paola Mattioli, and Marialba Russo, through to experimental works from the 1990s to 2015 by Marina Ballo Charmet, Silvia Camporesi, Monica Carocci, Gea Casolaro, Paola Di Bello, Luisa Lambri, Raffaella Mariniello, Marzia Migliora, Moira Ricci, Alessandra Spranzi and many others.\nL\u2019altro sguardo: Italian Women Photographers 1965-2015 represents a reflection on how, in Italy, one had to wait until the end of the decade to have the first historical studies of photography that focused on gender, an approach which has struggled to emerge in the country to this very day, with the exception of the contribution of a handful of scholars. Motifs that link images together belong to otherwise different times and genres, from photos of political activism to experimental images. The exhibition is set up in chronological order and is organised into four sections, devoted respectively to photography of journalism and social expos\u00e9s (Dentro le storie \u2013 Inside the Stories); to the relationship between the photographic image and feminist thought (Cosa ne pensi tu del femminismo? \u2013 What Do You Think about Feminism); to themes linked to identity and to the representation of emotional bonds (Identit\u00e0 e relazione \u2013 Identity and Relationships); and, finally, to contemporary experimentations based on the exploration of the expressive potential of photography (Vedere oltre \u2013 Seeing Beyond.)\nIn the very first section Dentro le storie, the domestic sphere, a place traditionally considered the woman\u2019s domain, is also addressed in the series Tornando a casa realised by Alessandra Spranzi in 1997. Here the photographs do not belong to the artist\u2019s family life, but are taken from old magazines of the 1960s. Spranzi selects images of bourgeois interiors that embody the dreams of the Italian middle class in the years of the economic boom, transformed into a restricted environment.

In parallel, Bringing the War Home: House Beautiful (1967-1972), juxtaposes images of the Vietnam War with those of the insides of American homes, in order to highlight the horror of the war. Spranzi\u2019s works are not directly linked to current affairs, but rather shed light on obscure and enigmatic aspects of an unconscious everyday life.\nAlong the exhibiting path, the 1980s propose very few women as able to carve out a space for themselves in the main trends of the period, both in painting and photography. But the 1990s introduce the presence of women artists and photographers in Italian museums and galleries as significant, after a decade dominated almost exclusively by men. In in the 1990s, a new generation of artists and photographers, including Beatrice Pediconi, Agnese Purgatorio, Luisa Rabbia, Sara Rossi and Silvia Camporesi, met with success in Italy, and increasingly often garnered important recognition abroad as well.\nIn various cases the same project is developed with different language and tools (photos, video, video installations, performance art, etc.), as for instance in R\u00e4 di Martino\u2019s Authentic News of Invisible Things, featuring a photograph and a video. The photo is the reproduction of archive image of 1918, preserved in the Imperial War Museum of London, which depicts a group of civilians observing a fake tank, used in World War I to deceive the enemy. From the archive photo, nearly 100 years later R\u00e4 di Martino has made a video in which she reconstructs the original scene: the artist built a set in Bolzano where several people dressed in clothes from the early 20th century look at a dummy tank. Next, the artist shows instead the spontaneous reactions of passers-by to a real tank that rolls through the streets of Bolzano.\nTHE OTHER VIEW ITALIAN WOMEN PHOTOGRAPHERS 1965-2015 runs until 8 January at La Triennale di Milano.

        "title": "Army Logistician (In Search of Logistics Visibility: Enabling Effective Decisionmaking)",
        "raw_content": "by Lieutenant General C. V. Christianson\nJoint force commanders (JFCs)\u2014and by extension, their logisticians\u2014require timely, accurate and relevant information to make effective decisions. This requirement is especially critical in the joint logistics environment (JLE). The joint logistics community must continuously execute processes, effectively coordinate the allocation of limited resources, and clearly understand the supported joint commanders\u2019 requirements across the broad range of military operations. To execute these functions effectively and efficiently, joint logisticians must have visibility.\nThis article serves as a reference point for discussion, a framework for concept development, and an integrating tool for the countless efforts across the Department of Defense (DOD) and industry to improve logistics visibility in the broadest and most holistic sense of the term. It offers a proposed definition of visibility, highlights key issues and concepts for consideration, and presents ideas for future efforts based on where the most pressing requirements for visibility lie within the JLE. Clearly, complete, system-wide access to all information is not attainable, or even desirable. So, this article will also broadly describe the types of visibility required by different elements within the JLE.\nWhat is Logistics Visibility?\nCurrent definitions of visibility focus almost entirely on asset visibility. In order to provide effective logistics support across the operating environment, the joint logistician must \u201csee\u201d more than just assets. He must fully understand the requirements for logistics support (who needs what) and the resources available (what there is to work with). The logistician also must be able to monitor joint logistics performance within the JLE (whether or not the logistics processes are in place and working). Without this kind of knowledge, the logistician cannot plan or execute effectively or efficiently.\nFor the purpose of this article, logistics visibility is defined as \u201caccess to logistics processes, resources, and requirements to provide the knowledge necessary to make effective decisions.\u201d\nA process is a series of actions, functions, or changes that achieves an end or a result. Multiple processes occur across and within the JLE, such as depot repair, patient movement, force deployment, and the delivery of contingency contracting support. Before we can effectively develop visibility applications, we must clearly understand the end-to-end processes that deliver an outcome for the joint force. Mapping these processes is critical to knowing where and when to place visibility \u201csensors\u201d that give us the knowledge we need to deliver those joint outcomes.\nResources can be defined by using the term \u201ctotal assets.\u201d \u201cTotal assets\u201d are defined as the aggregate of units, personnel, equipment, materiel, and supplies that are brought together in time and space to generate joint capabilities and their supporting processes. We must be able to see service-component logistics, multinational logistics, and other logistics assets in a way that provides integrated resource visibility to the joint warfighter.\nRequirements are what the joint force needs to accomplish its mission. Requirements can originate from anywhere and can result in a tasking for anyone in the JLE. Requirements also change over time based on plans, current operations, and changes in the environment.\nCollectively, visibility of processes, resources, and requirements make up the information that logisticians need to accomplish their mission; without each of these elements, they cannot prioritize effort. Logistics visibility provides the ability to plan, synchronize, and monitor operations to optimize outcomes. The ultimate effect we are trying to achieve is sustained logistics readiness.\nSome think that visibility should extend across the entire logistics domain and should include complete, real-time access for everyone within the system. While it is true that every aspect of the enterprise must be visible to planners, operators, or managers at some level, it is also clear that not everyone needs to be able to see everything all the time. At some point, too much information may be a hindrance and can actually detract from effective decision-making. Consequently, we should ask these questions about visibility: Which members of the JLE need visibility, and why do they need it? What do they need to see? Finally, where do they need visibility? These questions have significant implications for systems design, operational planning and execution, and resource allocation.\nWho Needs Visibility and Why?\nEveryone within the JLE has a requirement for some type of visibility. However, the ultimate purpose of achieving visibility resides at the tactical level, where operational requirements form the basis of all efforts across the JLE. The joint logistician\u2019s customer is at the tactical level! Each component of the JLE needs visibility to support the end user at the tactical level.\nThe JFC needs visibility to execute directive authority for logistics. Without visibility of JLE processes, resources, and requirements, the JFC cannot integrate service-component capabilities to achieve mission objectives.\nThe joint logistician matches resources with anticipated requirements to provide supportability assessments to the JFC. The supportability assessment determines if the JFC\u2019s operational concept can be sustained. As operational requirements change, the joint logistician also must have visibility so that he is able to reassign resources rapidly.\nThe services are responsible for delivering well-prepared forces and equipment to the JFC. At the strategic level, this mission demands different information and uses different processes than at the operational or tactical levels. In order for the services to deliver the forces and equipment necessary for mission accomplishment, they need visibility of the JFC\u2019s requirements. The services also need visibility of the processes that support the efforts of their theater components.\nPlanners and decisionmakers at the DOD staff level require visibility to provide responsive and relevant policy guidance and ensure that the DOD\u2019s strategic resources are applied appropriately. Their goal is to ensure that resources are used to achieve efficient and effective outcomes.\nFinally, DOD\u2019s interagency, multinational, and commercial mission partners require visibility of processes, requirements, and resources that are necessary to support their participation in DOD operations.\nWhat Do We Need to See?\nYour position within the JLE affects what you need to see. What the end user wants to see is different from what the manufacturer, supplier, or distributor wants to see. Each player in the JLE tends to see his visibility requirement as the visibility requirement for everyone. The challenge is to provide the right kind of visibility across a very complex environment to the right user at the right time. Depending on the situation, joint logisticians need visibility of processes, resources, or requirements.\nProcess visibility provides process owners and decisionmakers with the ability to evaluate the effectiveness of a particular process. They must be able to answer the question, \u201cAre we delivering what is expected?\u201d The deployment and redeployment processes, the force reception process at a major port, or the depot repair process are all parts of a system that relies on visibility. Joint logisticians and process owners need visibility to control and optimize the outcomes of processes.\nResources must be visible by item, person, or unit, individually or as a group. In some cases, visibility by a unique identifier, such as a serial number, lot number, national stock number, Social Security number, or unit identification code, is required. Some individuals or items are so important\u2014politically, operationally, or tactically\u2014that, by their very nature, they require real-time, 100-percent visibility across the logistics enterprise. Examples of such items include fissionable material, human remains, and vaccines. In other cases, visibility of groups of items, persons, or units is needed to determine the status of a particular capability and its ability to achieve the JFC\u2019s mission; for example, a specific force module, a port-opening capability, or a medical treatment capability.\nRequirements must also be visible by item, person, or unit, individually or as a group. Ultimately, visibility of requirements\u2014which are usually designated by the JFC\u2014is necessary to initiate support efforts across the JLE. The services, supporting combatant commands, and Defense agencies require visibility of those requirements to better support the JFC\u2019s mission. DOD must have visibility over those requirements to ensure the effective and efficient use of DOD resources.\nWhere is Visibility Needed?\nWhere visibility is needed depends on where you sit. End users will mainly want to know when they will receive their items and will be less concerned about every step along the way to final delivery. Visibility is needed while elements are in transit, in storage, in process, or in use. These terms broadly describe visibility needs based on the item\u2019s location in the JLE. When an item is in transit, it is being shipped or moved from its point of origin (commercial vendor, unit, storage activity, or maintenance facility) to a destination (unit, storage activity, or maintenance facility). When an item is in storage, it is being stored at a unit, DOD site, commercial site, or disposal activity. When an item is in process, it has been acquired from a source of supply but has not yet been shipped or is being repaired at an intermediate- or depot-level organic or commercial maintenance facility. When an item is in use, it is being used for its intended purpose. These terms help us define where visibility is needed.\nVisibility priorities and needs may change over time or across the phases of an operation. For example, planners might see joint force requirements as their most critical need, while available resources might take precedence during the sustainment phase of an operation. During the initial phases of expeditionary operations, visibility of processes might be most important to ensure that limited resources are being optimized as planned. That said, each of the three elements of visibility\u2014processes, resources, and requirements\u2014is needed to make effective decisions.\nSeveral barriers inhibit DOD efforts to enhance and share visibility. First, authoritative data are not always available to the joint logistician. The only thing worse than not having data is having two different sets of data. The inability to provide trustworthy data impedes quality decisionmaking. Second, it is unlikely that DOD will have unity of command over the entire spectrum of joint logistics. So, one of our major challenges is to achieve unity of effort without unity of command. This is particularly an issue as logisticians share information across different commands, agencies, systems, and processes to develop a common operating picture.\nAnother major dilemma is how to ensure adequate security for sensitive information while simultaneously offering the maximum possible ease of access to all members of the community. Operational partners, both inside and outside DOD, including international friends and allies, need to have confidence that their information will be handled properly by our systems. Finally, the desire for information often drives users to want to see everything all the time. However, no one in the JLE needs to see everything all the time. Knowing what is really needed becomes the key to an information environment that effectively supports quality decisions.\nWhat is the Way Ahead?\nSenior logistics managers, planners, and system developers must enhance visibility for everyone within the JLE and must allocate resources and focus efforts to achieve that effect. From the senior level, four initiatives can improve visibility in the months and years ahead.\nMap the processes. Joint logisticians must understand, define, and document the processes within the JLE, leveraging the ongoing work of the Joint Logistics Portfolio Management Test Case and the U.S. Transportation Command Distribution Process Owner (DPO). The joint logistics community also must use the base realignment and closure initiative to further our understanding of the defense supply chain and develop an integrated process as an outcome of that initiative.\nIdentify existing visibility capabilities. The joint logistics community should continue to capitalize on efforts already underway within the DPO and other activities. Those existing or emerging efforts that contribute to increased logistics visibility must be integrated, and visibility requirements must be aligned with process mapping to eliminate redundancies and gaps.\nDevelop a JLE data architecture. With the Defense Information Systems Agency as the lead, DOD must define the data framework, identify authoritative data sources, and influence and guide the joint logistics community\u2019s network-centric data strategy. The goal is to develop a JLE data architecture campaign plan.\nDeliver a joint logistics software application. The joint logistics community should successfully employ a program that enables visibility for the joint logistician, such as the Global Combat Support System-Joint (GCSS\u2013J). DOD must ensure that GCSS\u2013J turns data into information and enhances the joint logistician\u2019s ability to effectively plan and execute joint logistics operations.\nVisibility is not an end in and of itself but a means to make better decisions, gain efficiencies, and improve effectiveness across the JLE. As the logistics environment continues to change, there will always be additional information requirements or demands for enhanced timeliness and accuracy. Joint logisticians will continually strive to improve the quality of their decisions and optimize the logistics readiness of the joint force. Enhanced visibility will lead to increased logistics readiness and improved user confidence.\nAll joint logisticians are partners in delivering visibility across the JLE, and each has a critical role to play in helping to deliver sustained logistics readiness to the JFC. The logistics community and its partners must all work together to develop this capability to enhance support to the JFC and, above all, to the service men and women who depend on us.\nLieutenant General C.

        "raw_content": "In 1974, when actors Robert Elston and Elizabeth Perry were touring in Shot in the Dark, they determined that upon their return to New York they would pool their resources and form a workshop where theater artists could expand their abilities, reach into all areas of creativity in the theater, and regain the breadth of expression that was afforded \u201ca simple player\u201d before the age of specialization.\nThe American Renaissance Theater was formed in 1975. Ms. Perry brought to the nascent theater company members from her own group, Projects 70\u2019s, and the New York Tea Party, which included members from the APA-Phoenix Repertory Company and another ARTC founding member, Etain O\u2019Malley. Mr. Elston invited colleagues who included Larry Kramer, Richard Morse, and Janet Hayes Walker, who subsequently formed the York Theatre Company. Other founding members were Martha Schlamme, John Astin, Kent Broadhurst, Anthony Call, Patty Duke, Anita Keal, Scotty Bloch, Anita Khanzadian, and Susan Reed. At its incorporation in January of 1976, the new theater group was given the name \u201cRenaissance\u201d by its members, a group of renaissance men and women.\nSince its inception, ARTC has been a home to nearly five hundred professional actors, writers, directors, composers and musicians\u2014theatre artists from a diversity of backgrounds who have found a congenial, stimulating environment in which to expand their resources and creativity. Plays developed through ARTC\u2019s workshop process have moved on to subsequent productions on Broadway, Off Broadway, and in America\u2019s leading regional theaters.\nThe original impulse of the founders of the American Renaissance Theater Company was to bring together professionals who wished to expand their skills. They were professionals who had entrepreneurial ambitions and needed a broader overall ability to create works and contribute to their own destiny. ARTC is devoted to the development of new American plays and performance pieces and to the further growth of American actors, directors, playwrights and composers.\nShot in the Dark (from left to right, John Astin, Kent Broadhurst, Robert Elston and Elizabeth Perry, and Patty Duke)\nDo You Still Believe the Rumor?",

Please read what we added in to the Episode II Storyboards.\nOn the Validity of the Star Wars: Episode II Storyboards\nThough we used to think otherwise, we now are quite sure that these storyboards are true. They mention a Sith called Darth Tyranus. Darth Tyranus was also mentioned in a gaming magazine that had a bit of coverage on the video games to be released with the movie. They also mentioned Owen (with a picture of him), and there was also a picture from what could have been the nightclub scene mentioned at the film\ufffds beginning. Episode II Select pictures on starwars.com show on more occasions than one a scene with lots of rain, and in one picture, a Fett that looked to either be a) doing some sort of cheerleader dance with a Jedi, which is, of course, highly unlikely, or b) trying to kill him. There\ufffds also a picture of a boy looking out the window (described in the storyboards as Boba Fett, age 12) and there is rain on the window. The one with Fett fighting the Jedi, though was released after the storyboards were, so the storyboards can not be making up a story to go with the pictures. The thing about Darth Tyranus in the gaming magazine also came out afterword. Obviously, you would lean toward my opinion on these storyboards as well, though despite the fact that we have virtually all the proof we need, these storyboards have not been approved or confirmed by anyone.\nThese three pictures lead you to beleive that the storyboards are true. The scene with Jango Fett vs. Obi-Wan (depicted above) is mentioned in them.",

As Deadline reports, Tony-winning playwright David Henry Hwang has been roped in to pen the new live-action musical, alongside Alan Menken and Stephen Schwartz to compose the music.\nAlthough, casting decisions have yet to be confirmed, the live-action revamp of The Hunchback of Notre Dame is co-produced by Mandeville Films along with Josh Gad.\nBased on the novel by Victor Hugo, the story tells the tale of Quasimodo-a lonely hunchback who lives in the bell towers of Notre Dame and has only gargoyles as friends. He soon meets a beautiful gypsy named Esmeralda and goes on to defend her from the evil Frollo.\nThe new film is inspired from the 1996 animated film and the Hugo novel but not the stage production that Schwartz and Menken collaborated on in Europe. David Hoberman, who runs Mandeville with Todd Lieberman, has been fixated on a live-action remake of Hunchback for over 30 years when he was Disney film president. An early attempt led to the animated film and another resulted in a limited TV series on ABC. Now it has returned as a feature film, The Hunchback of Notre Dame has some of the most storied players from the stage and musical realms.\nGad teamed with Menken and Schwartz on a huge Universal deal several years ago for an original musical with Jeremy Garelick.\nThe animated movie of The Hunchback of Notre Dame featured a star-studded cast, including Tom Hulce as Quasimodo, Demi Moore as Esmeralda and Jason Alexander as the gargoyle Hugo.\n\u2190 ZEE5 rolls out customised campaign for Pakistan and Bangladesh\n\u2018Fortnite\u2019 giving Netflix a run for their money? \u2192",

        "raw_content": "MY BEST EID EVER\n\u00e2\u20ac\u0153America is more Muslim-friendly since 9/11, and more so than the rest of the western world\u00e2\u20ac\ufffd\nTechnical Sergeant, US Air Force (Ret.)\nMy best Eid ever in America was this year on Friday, Oct.12 as I celebrated the three-day feast marking the end of Ramadan. My oldest son Yousef came home on military leave to visit shortly before Eid. My 23 year-old daughter, Nadia, who teaches English and American culture in Europe also came home. She handed hand me as a surprise a pair of socks that I wore the exact day I came to America 30 years ago this month. That blew me away!\nFor the first time ever, My family and I attended the Eid prayer not at a rented out sport complex or party hall, but at the newly built Noor mosque- an elegant and state of the art facility in Hilliard, Ohio.\nThe first day of Eid began early Friday morning as I read messages in my inbox. The first message read:\n\u00e2\u20ac\u0153The world-famous Empire State Building will be lit in green from Friday to Sunday in celebration of Eid-ul-Fitr.\" This act of kindness warmed my heart and made my Eid very special one. Green color in Islam is a symbol of a happy occasion.\nI was more delighted to read further that, \"So far the landmark tower is lighted in traditional colors every year only on the occasions of Christmas and Hanukah. From this year on, lighting on Eid too will become an annual event.\"\nThe Empire State Building which is located in Manhattan has been recently nominated as America's favorite building.\nBelieve or not, America is more Muslim-friendly since 9/11, and more so than the rest of the western world. In case you have any doubt, please read the three items that were reported this year:\nJune 2, 2007 AP wire service story about Bilan Nur, a 22 year-old Somali woman from Phoenix, Arizona: She worked for several years for Alamo Rent -A-Car. The company fired her for refusing the take off her hijab (headscarf). Nur registered a complaint at the Federal Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. The EEOC sued the company. A federal jury said the company must pay her $288,000 for firing her for wearing the hijab. A federal judge agreed, and the company declined to comment. Yes, Justice is blind in America!\nJuly 20, 2007: According to the Chicago Tribune, two Muslim women from the Cincinnati area were able to get their driver's license photographs wearing the hijab free of charge. This took place after clerks at separate bureau office wrongly demanded that the women remove the scarves for the photo.\nTom Hunter, spokesman for the Department of Public Transportation sent a message to 216 state registrar's offices informing staff that wearing the hijab while taking a photograph is allowed and legally exempt under Ohio law. Mr. Hunter stressed in his message that asking a Muslim woman to remove her hijab is like asking a non Muslim woman to remove her shirt. That is a man of honor and integrity!\nMuslims were very proud and will never forget when on on Sep.1, 2001, when the U.S. Postal Service expanded its Holiday Celebrations Series with a new stamp highlighting the Muslim holiday of Eid.\nThe postage stamp was to honor and commemorate two important Islamic celebrations: Eid ul-Fitr and Eid al-Adha. Eid al-Adha commemorates Prophet Ibrahim's (peace be upon him) willingness to sacrifice his son Ismail upon God's commandment. The two Eids are usually two months and ten days apart.\n\"The Eid stamp helps highlight the business, educational, and military contributions of the estimated seven million Muslims in our country whose cultural heritage has become an integral part of the fabric of our great nation.\"\nThere is another popular event called collective 'Iftar\" take a place every year during Ramadan. Iftar is the meal eaten after sunset when the fast is broken. For many years, the White House, U.S. State Department, the Pentagon, all branches of U.S. military and St. James Episcopal Church of Columbus, Ohio host such an event. They meet Muslims and get to know who they are which help break the stereotypes that Muslim face every day. To Muslims, that means recognition and respect.\nAmerica does not need to spend millions of dollars on public relations campaigns at Al-Jazeera and other satellite networks in the Middle East to promote a positive image. The aforementioned acts of respect and goodwill gestures I mentioned will win the hearts and minds of Muslims here and abroad. Thank you America for making this my best Eid Ever!\nUSAF Retired Veteran\nReader Feedback: [email protected]",

And a Pagan Temple may lie beneath it.\nOct 3, 2018 | archeology, news\nWhen Mustafa \u015eahin first saw photographs of the submerged ancient church under the waves of Turkey\u2019s Lake Iznik, he couldn\u2019t quite believe what he was seeing. The head of archaeology at Bursa Uluda\u011f University had been searching the shores of the lake for several years, but it wasn\u2019t until local government surveyors showed him some aerial photographs in 2014 that he realized the lake itself covered the ancient ruins he was looking for. \u201cWhen I first saw the images of the lake, I was quite surprised to see a church structure that clearly\u201d \u015eahin told Live Science in an email. \u201cI was doing field surveys in Iznik [since 2006], and I hadn\u2019t discovered such a magnificent structure like that.\u201d\nThe ruined ancient church lies beneath about 10 feet (3 meters) of water, about 160 feet (50 m) from the shore of Lake Iznik, near the western tip of Turkey and about a 2-hour drive from Istanbul. Archaeologists think that the Roman-style church, known as a basilica, was built on the shore of the lake around A.D. 390, when Iznik was know as Nicea and Istanbul was Constantinople \u2014 the eastern center of the Roman Empire. The archaeologists now think this church may hide another treasure beneath it: a pagan temple. In A.D. 740, an earthquake destroyed the church, which later sank beneath the lake\u2019s surface, leaving the ruins submerged and forgotten until they were rediscovered, more than 1,600 years later. Before any of these riches are lost to history, \u015eahin and local government leader Alinur Akta\u015f have called for the site to be established as Turkey\u2019s first underwater archaeological museum. Underwater archaeology\n\u015eahin and staff from Iznik\u2019s Archaeology Museum have carried out underwater excavations of the submerged basilica since 2015. The hot climate of the region means that the lake is filled with algae, which can reduce the visibility during the excavation dives to a few inches, \u015eahin said. The archaeologists use special vacuum equipment to carry soil from the underwater excavations to the shore, where it can be sifted for artifacts. \u015eahin said that the most important finds included several human graves beneath the basilica\u2019s main transverse wall, known as the bema wall, referring to a raised platform used by the clergy. Several coins found in those graves date from the reigns of the Roman emperors Valens (who ruled from A.D. 364 to 378) and Valentinian II (who ruled from A.D. 375 to 392), which showed the basilica was built after A.D. 390, \u015eahin said.\n\u015eahin believes that the basilica was dedicated to St. Neophytos, who was put to death in Nicea by the Romans in A.D. 303, during the reign of the emperor Diocletian. Ten years later, in A.D. 313, the emperor Constantine the Great issued the Edict of Milan, establishing religious tolerance for Christianity throughout the Roman Empire; Neophytos became celebrated as an early Christian martyr. The city of Nicea itself became famous throughout the Christian world in A.D. 325, when Constantine convened the first council of church leaders there to determine the core beliefs of the religion, which he promoted throughout the pagan Roman Empire.\nTemple mystery\nBut the mystery of the submerged ruins in Lake Iznik may be even older than Christianity. \u015eahin said that the basilica may have been built on top of a pagan temple to Apollo, a Greek and Roman sun god sometimes associated with Jesus in the early Christian period.Roman records related that the emperor Commodus, who ruled the Roman empire from A.D. 180 to 192, built a temple to Apollo at Nicea outside the city fortifications. Some early coins and fragments of an ancient lamp discovered at the church site hint at an even earlier structure, \u015eahin said. \u201cCould this temple have been underneath the basilica remains?\u201d\nIf the plans for the underwater museum are approved, construction could begin this year and it would open to visitors in 2019, \u015eahin said. The museum buildings would include a 60-foot-high (20 m) tower, to enable the ruins to be seen from the shore, and a walkway out over the lake, above the submerged site itself. The museum complex would also include a diving club, so tourists could explore the sunken ruins, and an underwater glass-walled room in the nave of the submerged basilica where visitors to the ancient church could pray, \u015eahin said.",

        "title": "What Sort of Options Are There when Extending a House?",
        "raw_content": "The huge increase in house extensions over the last few years is quite understandable considering the problems involved in selling up and moving into a newer, larger house but what are the options when considering a house extension?\nBefore devoting your hard earned savings to spending on a house extension have a good, hard think why you want an extension and what you are going to use it for. Sometimes the best idea is to consider what you have in the house already and rearranging space or having a serious clear out of all the unnecessary junk that has been accumulated since you first moved in. Most people think they want a house extension because they feel they have to have extra living space. You may find that with a bit of thought you can create all the space you need by sorting out internal space or even combining two rooms into one. You might even make some money by selling all that stuff you don\u2019t really need rather than spending the money on a building.\nWhen that idea has been safely eliminated or passed over, the next step involves working out exactly what you want the extra space for. It might be an extra bedroom for a new member of the family or an older relative who has come to stay. It might be that you really want a larger kitchen as you seem to spend so much time hanging around the kitchen / dining room area anyway or maybe it is a place where the kids can go and play or a shed or work area that you can keep tools or a computer.\nThe most common type of extension for growing families and the cheapest option is a loft conversion. Most older houses have lofts, which are usually little used or useless when it comes to living space and at best get filled with all the stuff that is never used and probably could do with being dumped in somebody else\u2019s house rather than yours. The loft extension can provide an extra bedroom or two and is often great for teenagers who want a little more privacy than when they were younger. Older family members or granny or granddad is less likely to want the new space as it means having to climb up too many stairs.\nThe best option for living space and kitchen space is a kitchen extension. This gives a bigger food preparation area and more up-to-date possibilities for cooking. Having a bigger kitchen means that the area is easier and more comfortable space for spending time in. A comfortable multi use area makes heating bills much more economical as well.\nBasement conversions are also popular and can provide a lot of space for extra living or a whole self-contained area for an older relative. They are generally more expensive than the types of extension because of the amount of groundwork that has to be done and the possibility of extra strengthening that might be required. One benefit of a basement conversion over a side extension is that the extra space comes without the loss of garden space.\nThis entry was posted on Thursday, January 12th, 2012 at 2:56 pm\tand is filed under House Extension.

Remains of deceased red wolves will also be processed by the center.\n\u201cAn estimated 274 red wolves remain in the U.S., and 234 of those are in captivity at wildlife centers and zoos,\u201d Risch said. \u201cWe will catalog all specimens and provide valuable research guidance to Red Wolf SSP participants in ongoing breeding and protection efforts.\u201d\nA-State\u2019s depository designation will be similar to the efforts of the University of New Mexico\u2019s Museum of Southwestern Biology, which handles historic specimens of the endangered Mexican wolf. Tracy Klotz, a biology instructor, serves as A-State\u2019s collection manager for mammals and will work with faculty and students in the department to process and research specimens submitted by facilities throughout the country that house red wolves. He provided participants with carcass, tissue and blood sampling protocols.\n\u201cThis is an extraordinary opportunity for the Department of Biological Sciences to have a major role in the conservation and research of an iconic American mammal species that is the most endangered wolf in the world,\u201d Risch said. \u201cI\u2019m happy that our university, and in particular our wildlife ecology students, can accept an important role in protecting a species that is also our beloved mascot.\u201d\nJeff Hankins, vice president for strategic communications and economic development for the ASU System, also attended the Red Wolf SSP meeting and met with conservation leaders to discuss A-State\u2019s efforts and ongoing role.\n\u201cDirectors of wildlife centers and zoos across the country who are passionate about the American red wolf are very impressed with and appreciative of A-State\u2019s plans,\u201d Hankins said. \u201cWe\u2019re in a unique position to educate our students and alumni about the plight of the endangered red wolves. Our Red Wolves athletics program significantly enhances these efforts with prominent national media attention for the red wolf name.\u201d\nThe A-State Wildlife Ecology Club in January hosted a screening of the \u201cRed Wolf Revival\u201d documentary. This fall, all A-State freshmen will use \u201cThe Secret World of Red Wolves\u201d as its First-Year Experience common reader. The biology department is organizing a \u201cRed Wolves for Red Wolves\u201d organization to promote conservation, and the campus is embracing new Chancellor Kelly Damphousse\u2019s overall theme of \u201cEvery Red Wolf Counts.\u201d\n\u201cI\u2019m thrilled about all our efforts related to red wolves conservation and education,\u201d Damphousse said. \u201cI appreciate the leadership of Dr. Risch and his team, and I love the enthusiasm of the students who want to make a difference in preserving the nation\u2019s ecosystem as Red Wolves saving red wolves.\u201d",

It can take a while so you have to lie quite still.\nSimilar to a CT scan but this time the doughnut is a giant magnet and pictures are produced using a different method. Better for seeing different details to a CT Scan. It can take even longer for the scan so you may need an anaesthetic to be able to lie perfectly still. Because it is a giant magnet, you have to make sure you remove any metal you might be wearing and let the radiologist know if you have any metal implants.\nThis is a type of scan that uses sound waves to produce pictures. You can hear the whooshing noises as the scan is performed. It is useful as you get a moving picture and it does not involve any radiation. The radiologist puts some jelly on your scan to make the pictures clearer and runs a scan over the area being examined.\nThese are snap shots of your insides! You are exposed to a small safe amount of radiation to produce pictures in black and white.",

Can\u2019t they?\nBrand new production Rise is taking to the B2 stage at the Belgrade Theatre very soon, performed by some of the Midlands brightest young female talent and directed by Associate Director, Justine Themen.\nRise will explore what it\u2019s like to be a young woman growing up in the 21st century. Frustrated by their experiences of everyday sexism, a group of young women hijack a van and go on a road trip to seek solace from their pop idol, the Queen Bee. But things don\u2019t work out quite as planned, and the young women have to look elsewhere to find a way forward in their own lives.\nTo get you prepared for this exciting new production, we thought we would share with you Esra\u2019s Rehearsal Diary created by talented lead actress in Rise, Esra Powell. Esra explains what Rise is about and talks about the decision making as a group for the production. The Young Company have had some very intensive rehearsals which you can also get a sneaky peak at in Esra\u2019s behind the scene footage.\nAged from 9 to 25, the all-female cast form the Belgrade\u2019s Young Company, comprised of some of the most promising members from across the theatre\u2019s youth groups. Rise follows in the footsteps of the Belgrade Young Company\u2019s successful production of The Tempest in 2014, which saw a fast-paced and physical interpretation of Shakespeare\u2019s classic comedy.\nThis year, the Belgrade Community & Education company celebrates the 50th anniversary since its youth theatre groups were established.\nRise will run from Mon 13 to Sat 18 March. Tickets are free but with a request for donations to support the work of the Belgrade Community & Education Company.

        "raw_content": "ONE REASON players struggle with a particular shot is because they are, as I like to call it, entering, as I call it, \"the land of the unknown.\" When you're up against an unfamiliar situation, you're likely to miss because you can't trust your fundamentals and your stroke.\nThis month, I want to discuss shots where the cue ball is frozen to a rail - a situation that can be terrifying for developing players. But with a little practice, you shouldn't have any reason to fear.\nBack when I was practicing 12 hours a day, seven days a week, I had a coach show me this exercise. It is really built a foundation for me, to the point where I would go months without missing a shot with the cue ball up against a rail.\nAs you can see in Figure 1, freeze the cue ball to the long rail against the first diamond from the corner pocket. Now, in a direct line to the opposite corner pocket, place an object ball about a foot from the cue ball. Drill this shot until you feel like you can't miss.\nWhen you're able to make it multiple times in a row, start to move the object ball - first to the right, then to the left. Create an angle so you can get a feel for cutting the ball to the corner pocket.\nNow, when cueing the ball off the rail, it's important to remember a few things. First, the rail prevents you from keeping your cue totally level, so you have to hit at an angle. Because it can be uncomfortable, players have a tendency to bring the cue back at one angle and then stroke forward at another. Keep it consistent.\nSecondly, never use English when you're in this spot. The shot is difficult enough, so stick to hitting the ball on its vertical axis.\nOnce you get a hang of the shot into the corner pocket, try the shot in Figure 2. It's the same setup, only now your going from that first diamond to the side pocket. You'll be surprised how quickly you'll get a feel for these shots.",

        "raw_content": "Nielsen: Mommy blogger power grows\nRecent research from Nielsen Online found that mommy bloggers are an online force to be reckoned with as their number, and power, continues to rise.\nAccording to Nielsen, the number of \"Power Moms\" on the Internet is rising. Identified as women aged between 25 and 54 with at least one child and who regularly participate in online activities, this segment now accounts for almost 20% of the active online population.\nWhile Power Moms all share a desire to seek out and share money-saving strategies, and have concerns about the economy, they can be broken down further into \"Newbie\" and \"Established\" moms, found Nielsen. Between these two groups there is much difference in how they spend their time online.\nNewbie Moms, recent mothers between the ages of 25 and 34 with one or more children at home, are more likely to be users of social media such as blogs and social networking.\n\"For Newbie Moms, social networking is literally woven into their day-to-day existence, said Jessica Hogue, research director, Nielsen Online. \"Newbie Moms use the internet to gather information about everything from nursery d\u00e9cor to choosing the right pediatrician. As they navigate caring for a newborn, returning to work or managing a growing household, the internet acts as a lifeline to answer worrisome middle-of-the-night questions and to build community.\"\nEstablished Moms, aged 40 to 50 with three or more children at home, are heavy online shoppers, found Nielsen. In fact, Established Moms are 92% more likely than the average user to visit shopping destination Shopzilla.com, that being their most popular shopping website.\n\"Established Moms gravitate to online shopping destinations where they are likely to be receptive to highly relevant promotions to allow her to indulge herself while saving on her family's needs,\" said Hogue. \"However, marketers shouldn't rule out the rising prominence of social networking sites among this cohort, which is one of the fastest growing demographics on Facebook.\"\nTags: blogging, mommy blogger, Nielsen, online demographic, online shopping, Power Moms\nhttp://www.bizreport.com/2009/05/nielsen_mommy_blogger_power_grows_1.html",

        "raw_content": "Duchy British Organic Quinoa\nWith harvest done and dusted for another year, the start of autumn heralded another exciting customer launch for us - this time for our organic quinoa grains. We\u2019ve teamed up with the Waitrose Duchy Organic brand to bring our quinoa grains to the shelves of one of the leading UK supermarkets.\nThe 375g pack is just the right size for kitchen cupboards and can now be found in Waitrose stores up and down the country. As you may know we\u2019ve been supplying quinoa into salads for Waitrose for some time now, but it\u2019s great to get some of our new organic dried grains within the grocery aisles. What\u2019s even better about this tie up is for every sale of Waitrose Duchy Organic British Quinoa, a donation is made to The Prince of Wales Charitable Foundation. This means money is put towards important causes such as The Duchy Future Farming Programme, which helps farmers to develop more sustainable practices and vital in the overall effort to reduce our footprint on the land we use to grow food. Continuing on this theme, I was recently invited to present at the Soil Association\u2019s 'Innovative Farmers' event last month where I talked about how quinoa was developed as a British grown crop and how we were now expanding our organic area for 2017. After spending a day talking amongst some of the most prominent figures in organics, it\u2019s safe to say there is no lack of innovation & developments within the organic sector right now!\nEver since we moved into the organic sector in 2015, we\u2019ve had a continually rising level of demand which is great news for our organic growers who are always keen to grow more quinoa \u2013 as a farmer it\u2019s a great feeling when your produce is in high demand! Interestingly, according to DEFRA statistics, the area of land-in-conversion to organic cropping rose this year for the first time in a number of years, suggesting organic produce has a loyal consumer base and has an important role to play in UK food production. With the added uncertainty surrounding the long-term use of chemical inputs in conventional agriculture, it\u2019s not hard to see organic conversion gaining further ground over the next few years. One thing\u2019s for sure - quinoa has found a natural home in UK organic farming rotations, adding to cropping diversity and becoming a valuable part of the farming system.\nThat\u2019s it for now but look out for more launches arriving in the coming months - we\u2019ve got some more exciting partnerships to announce as well as our own new product range, which will be available to buy very soon through the website and from a selection of UK stores!",

        "raw_content": "How accreditation supports child welfare\u2019s shift to prevention\nFamily First Prevention Services Act opens door for groundswell in child and youth services\nBy Brad Contento, corporate communications\nOne night long ago, someone tried (and failed) to break into my car. Luckily, the would-be burglar succeeded only in punching out the lock on my driver\u2019s-side door. Nothing was taken, but the damage left me unable to enter the car from the driver\u2019s side.\nOver the next year, I accessed my car through the passenger door, sliding over the center console to the driver\u2019s seat. This routine got to be so normal that I stopped thinking about it. I accepted it. The car functioned after all. Only after changing cars did I remember there was another way to get in.\nFunny how the options we are given affect how we approach a situation. I used only the door available to me even though I would have benefited from having a new one.\nThis memory popped into my head as I spoke to Leslie Ellis-Lang, CARF\u2019s managing director of Child and Youth Services, discussing the Family First Prevention Services Act (FFPSA). I realized the new legislation is a lot like having access to a new car door. Whether you believe it replaces something broken or provides an alternative, it will change how we fund child welfare and provide services to children and families.\nIn the case of FFPSA, the new door is prevention.\nOne of the biggest drivers of service options is the availability of funding. When a piece of federal legislation redefines how public funds can be used, it changes the array of available services.\nFFPSA\u2019s primary focus is prevention services. Simply put, states will be able to use Title IV-E foster-care funds for services for children at risk of entering foster care. Previously, these funds could be used only for foster care itself and for adoption assistance.\nIn addition to prevention services, FFPSA also redefines congregate care-type settings for children who are removed from their homes and are unable to live within a family-like placement. These settings will have to meet specific criteria and will be called Qualified Residential Treatment Programs (QRTPs).\nLeslie Ellis-Lang is encouraged by the changes she sees within the child welfare system that address concerns expressed over many years. \u201cFFPSA may represent the opening of a door for providers to focus on issues that occur within families and negatively affect child well-being,\u201d she says. \u201cThis could allow the family to remain intact.\u201d\nLeslie acknowledges it is too early to predict what effects the FFPSA legislation will have, but she supports the direction of change. \u201cThe intent of FFPSA is to redirect funding to maintain the stability of a family rather than removing children from families when safety is not actually an imminent concern. Though the current goal is not to disrupt families, the new law will provide additional means for families to receive services prior to removal. Then, should the child need to be removed, there is a stronger focus on kinship and community settings. In instances when a QRTP is in the best interest of the child, the setting must now meet specific requirements, such as standards of quality, limited duration, and aftercare services.\u201d\n\u201cKids being able to remain with their families, or in a family setting, and being protected and safe align with CARF\u2019s values,\u201d adds Leslie. \u201cWhen CARF talks about prevention or intervention, we are talking about services that are proactive, striving to reduce risk factors and improve family resiliency and wellness. They are services that focus on changing the outcome for families by targeting the antecedents of identified problems. Then, if a child has to be removed, our standards address issues of follow-up, inclusion of family, and ultimately return to family or to a family-like setting.\nThis access to a full suite of services is what had me thinking of my car door. Certainly investing in prevention, intervention, and diversion is best for the child, but a lack of funding closes those doors before they can be explored. We grow accustomed to options in front of us and make do. Now that FFPSA aims to open these doors, CARF is excited to see how it drives the field.\n(Child and Youth Services)",

        "raw_content": "Obama inauguration sets Web traffic record, Akamai says\nAkamai, a CDN provider, regularly monitors and collects data from its global network of more than 30,000 servers. At around 12:15 p.m. EST yesterday, as Obama was being sworn in as president, Akamai says that it supported more than 7 million data streams, the majority of which were live streams. For comparison\u2019s sake, on a typical day Akamai\u2019s global servers will support an average of less than 1 million simultaneous streams. In total, the company says its peak overall traffic rate surpassed 2 terabits per second at 12:15 p.m. yesterday.\n\u201cIn addition to the historic nature of the Inauguration, it is now clear that this event has driven unprecedented demand from a global online audience,\u201d says Robert Hughes, Akamai\u2019s executive vice president of global sales, services and marketing. \u201cWith the inauguration occurring during work-day hours in the U.S., we witnessed record numbers of live streams served in support of many leading news businesses.\u201d\nAkamai\u2019s CDN also recorded a record level of news consumption yesterday, the company says. Using its news \u2018Net usage index, which records online media consumption on news Web sites, Akamai reported that news sites received a record 5.4 million visitors per minute at around 11:45 a.m. EST yesterday. Typically, news sites record an average of less than 3 million visitors per minute, Akamai says.\nIn addition to monitoring traffic volume trends, Akamai also releases regular reports on both Internet connection speeds and on Internet attack traffic, as the company uses its global server system to measure distributed denial-of-service attacks, Web site hacking attempts and DNS hijackings for 139 countries around the world.\nSource: http://www.networkworld.com/news/2009/012109-obama-inauguration-web-traffic.html",

        "raw_content": "Who owns a country? This is one of the burning questions that confront us daily as modern individuals and even as nations and states. It is a question that is never far below the surface in any discussion, among others, about Quebec, Scotland, Catalonia, Sri Lanka, England, Germany, or as we are witnessing these days via the media, Crimea, Ukraine and Russia.\nIt is a question that immediately raises perceptions of ethnic conflicts, especially wherever there is the dominant presumption that distinct nations and nationalisms exist with their historic and authentic cultures or ways of life. It is a question that makes us face up to the reality that nationalism is invariably racism or xenoracism legitimized under supposed exclusive national rights to sovereignty and self-determination. In this spirit, it is the question whose answer emphatically implies that all humankind are not equal and that my nation and its members and cultural practices have been, are and will always be superior to any other nation and members. Following this path we cannot help but see the world as a tragic place of interminable conflicts. This is a world of genocides, slavery, ethnic accommodations and imposed charters of values.\nBut there is another path to which the same question gestures. Here the assumption is that a country is owned by citizens as abstract individuals identified by an agreed bundle of civil right. Here we can move away from the claims of nationalism and nationalist homelands. This liberal individual, prototypical of the modern immigrant, can find happiness in any country where all members play by the same rules and have the same chances among themselves of winning and losing. It is where all members equally have human dignity.\n- See more at: http://www.mqup.ca/blog/owns-country/#sthash.zLk7UV7z.dpuf",

        "raw_content": "Interview: 90210's Michael Steger Is Excited About the Future\nThe kids of West Beverly High School have finally graduated. Some will go to college; some will go right to work. But you can bet on one thing staying the same: They all will have their fair share of drama when the fourth season of \u201c90210\u201d premieres on the CW Tuesday, Sept. 13 at 8/7c. Recently I spoke with series star Michael Steger, who plays Navid Shirazi, and he gave me the scoop on what viewers can expect from my favorite guilty-pleasure television show.\nCelebrity Extra: When you first auditioned for the \u201c90210\u201d reboot, did you have any apprehensions or doubts that the show even needed a remake?\nMichael Steger: I didn\u2019t think any of the remakes were going to make it. I was very skeptical at first. I started going to more and more auditions for the show, and what got me really interested is when I found out Gabe Sachs and Jeff Judah from \u201cFreaks and Geeks\u201d were on board.\nCE: While I enjoyed the throwback of having some of the original \u201c90210\u201d cast on the show, I was happy when the show began to focus on the new characters and phase out the previous ones \u2014 that\u2019s when it really hit its stride and found its focus.\nMS: Yeah, the first season it seemed like we had like 50 cast members, which was really ridiculous. Whenever the vets were in the episode, Navid was out. I was like, \u201cAw, man! What\u2019s going on?\u201d We had to share a lot of screen time with everyone, so it got tricky. But now, the writers are in a place where we are all really enjoying where the stories are going, and they keep on surprising us with both funny and dramatic stuff. It\u2019s good.\nCE: What are some story lines you have enjoyed playing?\nMS: The whole thing with Navid putting Adrianna through rehab and dealing with that situation. I thought it was a very difficult story line. It was so hard to pull off, and I felt like we told a great story. That was one of my favorites. And his relationship with Silver starting up has been amazing.\nCE: It\u2019s been great to be able to see Navid really grow up and mature through the years.\nMS: Yes, especially when he finally put his foot down and ended things with Adrianna. He found some backbone and he was like, \u201cYou know what, I can\u2019t take any more.\u201d He made a huge change in his life, and I think that change came with a lot of fear. It was the best thing Navid could have ever done. That was the best part about playing the character \u2014 the idea of him maturing from a boy to a man.\nCE: What can we expect for season four?\nMS: We\u2019ve all graduated. Navid is not going to college. In fact, he\u2019s at the helm of the production company. His entire family went to Switzerland because of his father being charged with child pornography. So, Navid ends up moving in with Silver, selling his car and just putting all of his money into his business. Silver becomes his assistant. But he\u2019s still being haunted by his dad\u2019s past. Ex-business partners who happen to be pretty upset start showing up.\nCE: What about the rest of the West Bev gang? What are they up to?\nMS: Navid is going to be working with Dixon, but he\u2019s no longer working FOR me. Also, my sister ends up not getting on the plane and stays in town, wanting to move in with me and Silver. With Max and Naomi and the whole pregnancy bombshell at last year\u2019s finale, they address that in the first episode. Navid does see Ade again, and it\u2019s a very awkward situation, but they do talk in the first two episodes.\nCE: Much like your characters, you must be excited to graduate into the real world of adulthood and the story lines that will bring.\nMS: Oh yeah, definitely. I feel like there is so much more you can do outside the high school. There are so many more mature story lines. We\u2019re not confined to the walls of West Beverly, and it feels good. We\u2019re doing a lot more location stuff. The sets look amazing, and we\u2019re at the beach more than usual. I\u2019m excited, because there\u2019s going to be a lot more action going on.\nLabels: 90210, interviews, Michael Steger, The CW, tv",

Only employees and guests of the exhibiting manufacturers and/or NAMM member retailers and distributors are allowed to attend, along with credentialed members of the press.

The event attracts numerous famous musicians, many of whom are endorsed by exhibitors and come to promote their own signature models and equipment.\nFounded in 1901, \u201cNAMM\u201d stands for the National Association of Music Merchants, although, since its inception, NAMM has evolved from a national retail association into an international association whose members now include commercial companies, distributors, affiliates and manufacturers.\nThe association\u2019s other show,[3] Summer NAMM, takes place in July in Nashville, Tennessee, at the newly constructed Music City Center.

        "raw_content": "Having officially said goodbye to 2011, I've had a little time to reflect on it. If you've been following CLTT through the year, you'll know it's been a mixed one, and that it has had a tough start to it. Looking back on my blog has been a good way of watching how the year progressed, and as my own little corner of online, I wanted to sum up 2011. So here goes.\nJanuary-February 2011.\nAt the start of 2011 I was still an undergrad student. And I was miserable. Many will know that my final year was difficult for many reasons, not least the people around me. I desperately did not want to go back to uni in January and February didn't see it get any better.\nWhat did make it doable was support from family, reminders that it would all end at some stage, and some visits from TG.\nA VERY windy and cold February walk in North Wales with TG.\nI listened to: Rihanna, Only Girl. Faithless, Sun To Me. Florence + The Machine, Heavy In Your Arms.\nAs spring approached I struggled with my health in a big way, making the 4.5-5 hour trip home for Dr/Hospital appointments became a 3-4 weekly occurrence and with my final year workload and the added stress of a difficult living situation, things were tough. But I still managed to find some fun.\nMarch brought with it my grandparents' Golden Wedding Anniversary- a chance to celebrate with them and catch up with family I don't often see.\nMy grandparents at their Golden Wedding celebration.\nThe Rabble, my family and extended family at my grandparents Golden Wedding celebrations.\nMarch and April also saw me get through interviews for a job I thought would be great, and whilst I came close to having a job offer on the table, I ended up realising that maybe recruitment as a career, wasn't really for me. I was still pleased to see that my CV was doing its job and it appeared I would be employable in some capacity or another.\nApril was a big month for my blog too. I decided to change the name and the focus of my blog. Chloe Likes To Talk came into being as it is now, and rather than trying to be a fashion blogger, I settled into rambling on about whatever was going on in my life. As well as the overhaul, April was also the month that I brought I'm Not Afraid, To Take A Stand to the blog. Having realised the impact of bullying in adulthood, these three inspirational ladies shared their experiences after I had written about mine.\nI listened to: Rihanna, S&M. Aim, Cold Water Music. Robert Miles, Children. Example, Hooligans.\nWhat a time this was. In May I sat my finals and on my 22nd Birthday just about 24 hours after finishing my last exam, I went with friends to get our degree results. Getting my degree was the biggest achievement of the year, and celebrating with my friends afterwards reminded me exactly why I'd put up with such a miserable 6 months leading up to this point.\nTom, Dev and I, 3rd June 2011. The Modern Languages Triple Major class of 2011.\nAnd as well as my birthday in June, we celebrated TG's in May.\nCelebrating TG's birthday in London.\nI also managed to sneak away for a holiday in June, after all the hard work through the exam period, it was much welcomed, and I got to show off my tan as I came back to another family Golden Wedding Celebration.\nPost Holiday, and one of this year's better outfit posts.\nI listened to: Example, Changed The Way You Kissed Me. Swedish House Mafia, Miami To Ibiza. Katy Perry, Hummingbird Heartbeat.\nThis part of the summer was hugely indecisive. I struggled to find a direction when applying for jobs and TG was also trying to work out how to progress his career. Between us there were a lot of tough decisions to be made. In the end, TG secured his place at a London university, and I was able to put in an application for the Air Force.\nHaving started the RAF application process, I also decided I wanted more from a career than head hunting and recruitment could offer me. I decided at the end of of August to do the one thing nobody- including me, thought I would ever choose, a Post-Grad course, to gain my legal qualifications. This is by and large thanks to spending some time with a solicitor who offered me work experience, a bit of guidance and who became (in a closest-possible description) my mentor.\nA low point in August- it rained like hell, here in The North.\nIt rained like fury here in the North for the end of the summer, which meant I got wet, a lot, as I started training for Air Force selection. One of the best things about this part of my year was taking up running. I realised I loved it when I decided to run the Berlin Half Marathon in 2012. There'll be more on that soon, as I have a lot to talk about- well the blog is called Chloe LIKES to TALK?!\nBut by far the highlight of the summer and the year.\nChloe Martin-Brown BA Hons, French, German and Spanish. The Triple Major Language Class, 2011. Bangor University.\nI was one of just 9 people in the country graduating with a 3 language degree where they were all majors and I'd spent time abroad for all 3 languages. After the blood, sweat and tears, quite literally, that went into my degree I was suitably proud of myself for making it to the gown-and-stupid-hat-that-doesn't-fit stage.\nI listened to: The Pierces, It Will Not Be Forgotten. Ferry Corsten, Made Of Love. Oasis, Acquiesce.\nThe start of September brought with it some huge changes to my life. TG and I realised we'd been together a year and reflected on how much we had both changed and how much our lives had changed in that 12 months. We also said goodbye to each other as he started university and I started my post-graduate course.\nTG and I, September 2010. How it all started.\nStarting my GDL turned out to be overwhelmingly positive. I found that I loved it, despite the volume of work to do and I found that I'm actually pretty good at it. Coupled with my work experience, I knew I'd made the right choice following a potential law career.\nAs Autumn got into full swing, law stopped being a potential career and became my plan A. I was notified by the RAF that I had been declared permanently unfit for all service due to a weak muscle in my right eye, and devastated didn't even begin to cover it. I wrote about picking myself up from it, but it was hard, and whilst I support TG 100% to pursue a career with the Army, it was painful to do in these months.\nI listened to: Nicki Minaj, Where Them Girls At. Adele, Someone Like You. Kelly Rowland, Commander. Snoop Dogg, Sweat.\nWinter has come with its own challenges, maintaining a relationship, balancing my job, work experience, my GDL and studies to go with it. But coming top of my GDL class and having made some friends on my course has made it seem so much more possible than my language degree ever did.\nI managed a few trips in November and December. London with TG, despite a rocky time for our relationship was a memorable trip if only for the Example show we'd had tickets for since July.\nExample at Brixton Academy, December 2011.\nI also made it up to Glasgow to a first blog meet and got to meet Ayden, who has extended the hand of friendship this year.\nMemories of Glasgow.\nIf you made it this far, kudos, it's been one hell of a year and a long post. If nothing else, I have learned a lot this year and am moving into 2012 with a sense of purpose and a plan.\nI listened to: Example, Skies Don't Lie. Avicii, Levels. Jens O, All The Things She Said. Coldplay, Fix You. Fatboy Slim, Right Here, Right Now.\nTo all of you, I wish you a very Happy New Year 2012 and all the very best for the coming 12 months and thank you for your own part in making 2011 here on Chloe Likes To Talk.\nLabels: Chloe Likes To Talk, Chloe Likes To Talk Life, Chloe Likes To Talk Thank You\na very Happy New Year to you..I hope 2012 is amazing, thank you for your support and friendship x\nI love you! I hope 2012 is fantastic for you!",

While many radio stations and music blogs are paying tribute to the musician through music marathons and thoughtful essays, the Turf Club is set to honor the icon's film career.\nThough his music legacy is epic, Bowie also had an impressive and varied film career as well, with a nice mix of quiet art-house films, weird children's tales, a sexy vampire flick (where he not-so-sexily ages), and concert documentaries.\nEach evening at the Turf will be a double-header. The two-week series kicks off tonight with Jim Henson's dark odyssey Labyrinth, followed by the concert doc Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars. Next Wednesday, January 20, will offer the vampire classic The Hunger and The Serious Moonlight Tour.\nFilms start at 8 p.m. with doors at 7 p.m. (or pregame and show up for happy hour at 5 p.m.). You must be 21 or over to take in these flicks.

        "raw_content": "Browse: Home \u00bb 2017 \u00bb December \u00bb 04 \u00bb WHEN AN APPEAL MISSES THE POINT: APPELLANT FAILED TO IDENTIFY THE ISSUES ON APPEAL\nWHEN AN APPEAL MISSES THE POINT: APPELLANT FAILED TO IDENTIFY THE ISSUES ON APPEAL\nDecember 4, 2017 \u00b7 by gexall \u00b7 in Appeals, Written advocacy\nThere are some surprising observations in the judgment in The Bar Standards Board (BSB) v Crawford [2017] EWHC 3101 (Admin). Not the least that the appellant\u2019s documents did not deal with central issues in the appeal.\n\u201cThe grounds of appeal in this case singularly failed to identify the issues that were said to arise, and to which argument would be directed\u201d\n\u201cRegrettably, neither the grounds of appeal nor the skeleton argument properly identified the issues which this court was being asked to consider and determine.\u201d\nThe Bar Standards Board was arguing that a Disciplinary Tribunal decision had been too lenient. The appeal was dismissed\nTHE JUDGMENT ON THE APPEAL\nMr Clarke initially submitted that the question posed in this appeal \u2013 one of the first appeals to this court by the BSB under its new powers to appeal against a sanction imposed by a Disciplinary Tribunal \u2013 is as follows (see paragraph 10 of his skeleton argument):\n\u201cWhat is the proper sanction for a barrister who repeatedly breaches an order of the criminal court and in so doing acquires three convictions for seven separate offences over a period of seven years, with sentences of unpaid work and imprisonment being thereby imposed, the latter conviction being committed after a previous Disciplinary Tribunal sanction, imposed in respect of an earlier conviction?\u201d\nLeaving aside the limited scope of the available grounds of appeal, in my view that question is patently too broad; because the appropriateness of a sanction is necessarily fact-specific. In paragraph 23 of that same skeleton argument, drawing on the observations of Jackson LJ in Salsbury v The Law Society [2008] EWCA Civ 1285; [2009] 1 WLR 1286 at [30] and, more recently, Beatson LJ in Ballard v Solicitors Regulation Authority[2017] EWHC 164 (Admin) at [66], Mr Clarke puts the question for this court in this way:\n\u201cOn the facts of this case, was the decision of the tribunal \u2018clearly inappropriate\u2019?\u201d\nThat, at least, focuses upon the facts of this specific case, which any exercise involving sanction must do.\nThe grounds of appeal failed to comply with the requirements of CPR Part 52, which applies to appeals such as this. In Rasheed v Secretary of State for the Home Department [2014] EWCA Civ 1493 at [12], the Vice-President of the Court of Appeal (Civil Division), Moore-Bick LJ, said this:\n\u201cGrounds of appeal are intended to be short, succinct documents which identify as briefly as possible the respects in which it is said that the court below\u2026 erred. If drafted as the rules intend and require, they provide the court and the parties with a clear and concise statement of the issues that will arise on the appeal and to which argument will be directed.\u201d\nThe grounds of appeal in this case singularly failed to identify the issues that were said to arise, and to which argument would be directed. However, that failure was compounded by their failure properly to engage with the grounds of appeal available under paragraph rE185 of the 2014 Rules, which must be the starting point for any appeal by the BSB.\nThe judgment concluded:-\nWe appreciate that few appeals have been made under the new COIC regime, and certainly this is one of the first appeals by the BSB against a sanction. However, in our view, this appeal was not optimally prepared or presented by the BSB; and we consider we can make some observations arising out of this appeal that may assist future appeals by the BSB.\nA real difficulty faced by the court in this case was the absence of any particulars explaining why the BSB considered that the tribunal had erred. Such particulars appeared in neither the grounds of appeal, nor the BSB skeleton argument. In future, in any appeal by the BSB the court will expect to see, set out in the grounds of appeal and properly elaborated upon in the skeleton, proper identification of the specific findings of fact, statements of law or principle made by the Tribunal, or other errors of law which the BSB criticises and to which it objects, with proper reference to the available grounds of appeal as set out in regulation rE185.\nThat identification must be done with an appropriate amount of care and precision. As I have indicated, in this case, the BSB argued that the tribunal\u2019s conclusion that it was unlikely that the Respondent\u2019s past misconduct would be repeated was perverse. However, that was not set out in the grounds of appeal, or in the skeleton. It was first raised during the appeal hearing. Neither the Respondent (who had a right to prior notice of the case against him) nor the Court was given any notice of the factual or other basis upon which this submission was made. The tribunal had held that the risk in the future was much lower since the children were now older and, in effect, the occasions when mother and father would have to be in contact had consequently dramatically diminished. On the face of it, that was uncontroversial. If the BSB wished to challenge that finding, it was incumbent it to explain how, and why, and upon what evidential basis.\nFurthermore, where it is contended by the BSB on appeal that the sanction fell within regulation rE185(d) (i.e. it was legally perverse), the court will also expect proper assistance on the range of sanction which, the BSB contend, would have been appropriate and lawful. In this case, nowhere in the grounds nor skeleton was there any identification of the sanction that the BSB considered was appropriate. In the course of argument, Mr Clarke submitted that the only rational sanction in a case such as the present was permanent disbarment. However, on reflection and upon taking instructions, he accepted that a \u201cvery lengthy\u201d suspension might be appropriate. Neither proposition was advanced until the BSB was compelled to respond to questions from the court towards the end of oral submissions; and it follows that the Respondent was given no forewarning of the stance being taken. In the event, Mr Speaight was more than able to respond to the submission eventually made, fully, forcefully and effectively. However, in a challenge to sanction, it is incumbent upon the BSB to identify, in advance, what it contends is the appropriate range of sanction, and to provide the court with relevant background material (e.g. appropriate references from the Sentencing Guidance, and any relevant precedents).\nThese observations are intended to assist in future BSB appeals. Clarity in the BSB\u2019s case is important, not just to assist the Court, but, crucially, to enable the Respondent, whose sanction the BSB is seeking to increase, to know the case he is facing and to have a fair opportunity to respond to it.\u201d\nTags: Appeals, Skeleton Argument\n\u2190 PROVING THINGS 77: AN UNATTRACTIVE ARGUMENT: WHEN A PARTY HAS CAUSED AN ABSENCE OF EVIDENCE IT CANNOT BENEFIT FROM IT\nCHANGES TO THE RULES IN RELATION TO THE COSTS OF COSTS MANAGEMENT: COMPARE AND CONTRAST \u2192",

Why is this date especially important?\nEach tax year, taxpayers are granted a number of tax-free allowances, exemptions and reliefs, and in most circumstances, if you don\u2019t take advantage of these reliefs they are lost; they cannot be carried forwards. Basic allowances for 2017-18 include:\nPersonal tax allowance \u2013 \u00a311,500\nPersonal savings allowance \u2013 \u00a31,000 for basic rate taxpayers and \u00a3500 for higher rate taxpayers.\nDividend allowance \u2013 \u00a35,000. This is the last year that this generous tax-free allowance is available, from 6 April 2018 it is reducing to \u00a32,000.\nNational Insurance:\nThe employment allowance of \u00a33,000 is available to set-off against employer\u2019s Class 1 secondary contributions subject to certain restrictions.\nAnnual exempt amount, individuals can accrue chargeable gains of \u00a311,300 (trusts \u00a35,650) in the tax year without paying this tax.\nAnnual Investment Allowance:\nSole traders, partnerships and companies can invest up to \u00a3200,000 in qualifying capital expenditure and set this off against their taxable profits.\nAnnual gifts out of capital \u00a33,000 (this gift allowance can be carried forward for one year).\nSmall gifts allowance, \u00a3250 per recipient.\nParental gift on marriage, \u00a35,000.\nGrandparent or party to marriage, \u00a32,500.\nOther gifts on marriage, \u00a31,000 per donor.\nAnnual ISAs \u2013 you can invest up to \u00a320,000 in a tax-sheltered ISA. The limit for Junior ISAs is \u00a34,128.\nThis is by no means a complete list, what it does help to illustrate is the need to work through a basic check list of reliefs to ensure that you have organised your tax affairs for 2017-18 in such a way that you can make the most of reliefs available.\nWe can help. If you have not considered your tax planning options for 2017-18, call now to organise a planning meeting.\nPosted in Uncategorized | Comments Off on Just a few weeks to the end of the tax year\nInheritance tax due for a shakeup\nThe government has tasked the department charged with simplifying our present tax system with taking a fresh look at inheritance task. The scope of their review has just been published. It says:\nThe review will consider how key aspects of the current IHT system work and whether and how they might be simplified. This will include a combination of administrative and technical questions such as:\nThe process around submitting IHT returns and paying any tax, including cases where it is clear from the outset that there will be no tax to pay;\nThe various gifts rules including the annual threshold for gifts, small gifts and normal expenditure out of income as well as their interaction with each other and the wider IHT framework;\nOther administrative and practical issues around routine estate planning, compliance and disclosure, including relevant aspects of probate procedure, in particular in relation to situations which commonly arise;\nComplexities arising from the reliefs and their interaction with the wider tax framework;\nThe scale and impact of any distortions to taxpayers\u2019 decisions, investments, asset prices or the timing of transactions because of the IHT rules, relevant aspects of the taxation of trusts, or interactions with other taxes such as capital gains tax; and\nThe perception of the complexity of the IHT rules amongst taxpayers, practitioners and industry bodies.\nPotentially, this could result in legislation being presented to parliament that radically changes the present planning options usually considered by UK taxpayers to minimise IHT liabilities.\nWe are still some way from any changes being actioned, but we will be keeping a weather eye on the situation and will advise clients if the rules do change.\nPosted in Uncategorized | Comments Off on Inheritance tax due for a shakeup\nRequirement to correct tax due on offshore assets\nA new legal requirement is included in the Finance (No. 2) Act 2017 that creates an obligation for anyone who has undeclared UK tax liabilities that involve offshore matters or transfers to disclose the relevant information about this non-compliance to HMRC by 30 September 2018.\nFailure to disclose the relevant information to HMRC on or before 30 September 2018 will result in the person becoming liable to a new penalty. The new failure to correct penalty is likely to be much higher than the existing penalties, with a minimum penalty of 100% of the tax involved.\nTo avoid becoming liable to these new higher penalties, a person must correct the position by no later than 30 September 2018. If they do this, the tax and interest will be collected, and the existing penalty rules will apply.\nThe purpose of the Requirement to Correct (RTC) legislation is to require those with undeclared offshore tax liabilities (relating to Income Tax, Capital Gains Tax or Inheritance Tax for the relevant periods) to disclose those to HMRC on or before 30 September 2018.\nThis will allow HMRC to take the appropriate action, for example, the collection of tax, interest and any penalties due under the appropriate legislation currently in force. This will ensure that those with offshore interests pay the correct amount of tax. Where taxpayers are unsure whether they have undeclared offshore tax, they will need to review their affairs to check whether action is needed.\n30 September 2018 was chosen as the final date for corrections as this is the date by which more than 100 countries will exchange data on financial accounts under the Common Reporting Standard (CRS).\nCRS data will significantly enhance HMRC\u2019s ability to detect offshore non-compliance and it is in taxpayers\u2019 interests to correct any non-compliance before that data is received.\nIf taxpayers are unsure whether they have undeclared UK tax liabilities that involve offshore matters or transfers, they should check their affairs and if necessary put things right before they become liable to the new FTC penalties that will come into force on 1 October 2018.\nPlease call if you need more information.\nPosted in Uncategorized | Comments Off on Requirement to correct tax due on offshore assets\nIn a recent hearing before a tax tribunal, HMRC led the charge to insist that bicarbonate of soda (BoS) was a chemical not a food of a kind used for human consumption.\nHMRC had issued an assessment amounting to \u00a3291,000 to hapless food company, Phoenix Foods Ltd, as they had treated the sale of BoS to their customers as a zero-rated supply, and HMRC insisted that BoS was a chemical, an additive, and should have been a standard rated supply.\nFor non-culinary readers, BoS is a raising agent used when cooking cakes and certain types of bread. It helps to make the end-product light and fluffy!\nPhoenix sold BoS to supermarkets who stacked the ingredient with other cooking essentials. BoS also features regularly in recipe books as a required ingredient.\nThe Tribunal judges had to endure lengthy presentations by food experts from both sides of the argument, but in the end decided that common sense needed to prevail.\nTheir decision reads:\n\u201c\u2026 in our view, the supply by Phoenix of bicarbonate of soda in a form that was intended for use primarily as a baking ingredient was a supply of \u201cfood of a kind used for human consumption\u201d.\nAccordingly, this judgement underlines the notion that it is necessary to examine the supplies made and their intended use by the consumer rather than consider other factors, such as alternative uses that the product could be turned: for example, BoS is also used as a cleaning agent.\nAs a result, Phoenix Food\u2019s appeal was upheld and HMRC will need to decide if they want to take the case to a higher court. Hopefully, some of the lower court\u2019s pragmatism will influence HMRC to let the matter rest.\nPosted in Uncategorized | Comments Off on This takes the biscuit\nIntellectual property and Brexit\nThe Intellectual Property Office has issued commentary on the future of intellectual property (IP) issues following Brexit. We have copied in blow some of their comments to clarify various issues for companies with existing registered IP, or that have applications in progress.\nThe UK system for protecting trade mark rights is not affected by the decision to leave the EU. While the UK remains a full member of the EU then EU Trade Marks (EUTM) continue to be valid in the UK. When the UK leaves the EU, an EUTM will continue to be valid in the remaining EU member states.\nWe recognise that owners of existing EU trade marks want clarity over the coverage of those rights when the UK leaves the EU. We continue to engage closely with right holders and a wide range of stakeholders on this issue. The government is looking at various options and we are discussing the best way forward with users of the system.\nThe UK system for protecting registered and unregistered designs is not affected by the decision to leave the EU.\nRegistered Community Designs (RCD)\nWhile the UK remains a full member of the EU, Registered Community Designs (RCD) continue to be valid in the UK. When the UK leaves the EU, an RCD will cover the remaining EU member states. We recognise that owners of existing RCDs want clarity over the coverage of those rights when the UK leaves the EU. We continue to engage closely with right holders and a wide range of stakeholders on this issue.\nThe Hague System\nThe government intends to ratify The Hague Agreement to join this international system in a national capacity. The Hague System for the International Registration of Industrial Designs allows for registration of up to 100 designs in over 66 territories through filing one single international application.\nWhile the UK remains a member of the EU, designs, including patterns, may be automatically protected in the EU as \u2018unregistered community designs\u2019. This gives your design 3 years protection from copying.\nUnregistered protection for designs will continue to exist through the UK unregistered design right and by using copyright. We are discussing options with designers and other users to ensure that the protection provided is fit for purpose.\nThe UK\u2019s exit from the EU will not affect the current European patent system, which is governed by the (non-EU) European Patent Convention. UK businesses can continue to apply to the European Patent Office for patent protection which will include the UK. Existing European patents covering the UK are also unaffected.\nWhile the UK remains in the EU, our copyright laws will continue to comply with the EU copyright directives, and we will continue to participate in EU negotiations. The continued effect of EU Directives and Regulations following our exit from the EU will depend on the terms of our future relationship.\nThe UK is a member of a number of international treaties and agreements. This means that UK copyright works (such as music, films, books and photographs) are protected around the world. This will continue to be the case following our exit from the EU.\nAs readers will observe, there is some certainty in the IPO\u2019s comments, but a lot of the detail is still to be agreed. Watch this space for more news as it develops.\nPosted in Uncategorized | Comments Off on Intellectual property and Brexit\nAdditional support for Carillion subcontractors\nA further package of support for the businesses and workers affected by Carillion\u2019s liquidation was announced Saturday 3 February, by Business Secretary Greg Clark.\nThrough delivery partners that include all the major high street lenders, the British Business Bank will provide support to make available up to \u00a3100 million of lending to small businesses who may not have the security otherwise needed for conventional bank lending using its Enterprise Finance Guarantee programme.\nThis will be of benefit to small businesses, including the chain of subcontractors to Carillion, who may not have sufficient assets as security to access conventional loans. These guarantees can be used to support overdraft borrowing and refinancing of existing debt.\nThe UK\u2019s leading banks have also furthered their commitment to provide support to those affected with UK Finance confirming additional support for personal banking customers concerned about overdraft, mortgage or credit card repayments, as well as further financial support for small businesses to provide short-term relief to help keep them afloat.\nWe want to signal very clearly to small and medium sized businesses who were owed money by Carillion that they will be supported to continue trading.\nThe banks have responded to my request by agreeing to support businesses and individuals affected. This further guarantee will help those businesses who may not be able to provide the usual security for a loan.\nI will continue to work closely with business organisations, trade unions and banks to actively support those affected by Carillion\u2019s insolvency.\nThis package is in addition to the more than \u00a3200 million already announced by Lloyds Banking Group, HSBC and RBS.\nPosted in Uncategorized | Comments Off on Additional support for Carillion subcontractors\nText message scammers scuppered by HMRC\nHMRC has stopped thousands of taxpayers from receiving scam text messages, with 90 percent of the most convincing texts now halted before they reach their phones.\nThe milestone comes during Take Five To Stop Fraud Week, with the tax authority working to raise awareness of the tell-tale signs of fraud ahead of the Self-Assessment deadline.\nFraudsters alleging to be from HMRC send text messages to unsuspecting members of the public. In these messages they will make false claims, such as suggesting they are due a tax rebate. Messages will usually include links to websites that harvest personal information or spread malware. This can in turn lead to identity fraud and the theft of people\u2019s personal savings.\nHMRC will never contact customers who are due a tax refund by text message or by email.\nReports of this type of fraud have quickly increased in volume over the last few years. People are 9 times more likely to fall for text message scams than other forms like email because they can appear more legitimate, with many texts displaying \u2018HMRC\u2019 as the sender, rather than a phone number.\nHMRC, working with public and private partners, began a pilot in April 2017 to combat these messages. The new technology identifies fraud texts with \u2018tags\u2019 that suggest they are from HMRC and stops them from being delivered.\nSince the pilot began, there has been a 90% reduction in customer reports around the spoofing of these specific HMRC-related tags on SMS and a five-fold reduction in malicious SMS reports. The initiative has helped reduce reports of these scams from over 5,000 in March 2017, before the new programme was introduced, to fewer than 1,000 in December 2017. This progress comes after similar successes in tackling fraudulent emails and websites.\nIn the last 12 months, HMRC has initiated the removal of 16,000 malicious websites, meaning even if the texts are delivered, the associated phishing website is likely to have been removed.\nBy introducing technical controls, HMRC has also stopped customers receiving over 300 million emails purporting to come from the tax authority.\nHMRC is working with the National Cyber Security Centre to further this work and extend the benefits beyond HMRC customers.\nPosted in Uncategorized | Comments Off on Text message scammers scuppered by HMRC\nA company, Casio Services Ltd (CSL), had been registered with Companies House since June 2016, and after that confirmation by Companies House the directors would no doubt have felt that they could trade with the registered name with no restriction.\nUnfortunately, Casio Electronics Co Limited (CECL), a previously registered business disagreed.\nCECL were not happy with CSL\u2019s use of the Casio name and applied to the courts to request CSL to change its name. CSL did not contest the application and have been required to do just that, change their company name.\nThis case is a salutary reminder that registration of a company name at Companies House does not give you exclusive rights to ongoing use of that name if a company previously registered feels that your name is like its own and would allow you to pass off your businesses as associated with it in some way.\nPosted in Uncategorized | Comments Off on What is in a name\nUnexpected VAT charge for UK importers\nWith no agreement on tariffs, the UK will be treated as any other non-EU trading nation post Brexit. Consequently, UK importers would be required to make an up-front VAT payment in addition to any customs duties. This VAT payment will rank as input VAT that can be reclaimed from HMRC.\nHowever, a problem will arise if an importer submits VAT returns quarterly. Any VAT paid to HMRC when they import goods will be authenticated by the issue of HMRC\u2019s form C79 (this form is issued monthly). Once issued this can be treated like a VAT invoice and included on the next VAT return.\nAccordingly, the importer will not be able to reclaim VAT until this form is received.\nAffected businesses therefore need to add the VAT costs each quarter to their cash flow as it could be up to four months until a refund of import VAT paid can be recouped.\nIt is to be hoped that our government will respond to lobbying on this issue. Perhaps they will allow some form of deferment of the VAT payable or speed up the reclaim process.\nPosted in Uncategorized | Comments Off on Unexpected VAT charge for UK importers",

It\u2019s not just all candies and kisses, sometimes there a lot of hardship to deal with and it can be really emotionally taunting and mentally demanding. What\u2019s worse is, pairing the idea of a long distance relationship with the sad soppy case of losing communication.\nBefore I proceed to the rest of the blog post, take a look at the video below and tell me what do you think?\nWhat\u2019s going on? They seemed happy right?\nAlthough they were going to be far away from each other, they seemed like they were in it forever but then suddenly everything changed! Did he find someone else?

        "raw_content": "Since today is Sunday I wanted to do a special edition of 31 Days. God's Word is not only a huge part of my life but it's our guide book of how to live. I feel like I need to say that, of course, I'm not perfect, but living in God's grace, even in the part of my life dealing with possessions.\nI battle materialism like most people in our culture. I don't think God says there is anything wrong with having nice things. The problem lies with your heart.\n\u201cDo not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moths and vermin destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. 20 But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moths and vermin do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. 21 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. Matthew 6:19-21\nI have to know where my treasure is and keep things on earth in perspective. Sometimes I will get obsessed with acquiring something to the point that it feels like I'm worshiping it. That's bad. Things serve me. I don't serve them.\nWhat God asks me to do regarding possessions is to keep my heart in check. I look around and have to remind myself that things come and go. I don't want to accumulate too many things and I do that by being very careful about what I buy. I may have a hard time getting rid of old things but I have no problem taking new things back to the store. If I realize it's not going to fit into my life, I promptly get my money back.\nOn the other hand, if something is going to be a great multi-tasker for me, I could spend a lot of money on it whether it's a pair of shoes or a pan for cooking. God wants good things for us too! It's not about the thing, it's about your heart, which is the only \"thing\" that God wants.\nHope you've had a lovely weekend. Thanks so much for sticking with me through the first week of simplifying. I hope that you've been decluttering right along with me. One day we'll do a linky and you can show me.\nIf you will, take the opportunity to consider your heart when it comes to your possessions. Maybe this will be the key to you finally being able to let go of some things.\nLabels: 31 Days Challenge, Sunday\nVery valid point. Sometimes I do feel that I value some material possession too much that I am actually glorifying it. And only God can be glorified. Thanks for helping lots of us put things in perspective.\nLove this perspective and the quotes you have used as well as your own words. The last paragraph is very helpful.\nhttp://howtobechic.blogspot.com\nBeing Fab-I think it's something we all struggle with, since the beginning of time!\nFiona-Thanks! I'm glad that it was helpful to you. It was a good reminder for me as well.",

        "raw_content": "True fasting isn't a mechanical response to God, a merely external religious act. It is done from a heart truly dedicated to God, wanting to press onto Him more to realign our focus on Him.\nWe should be mindful of others - attending the physical, emotional and spiritual needs of others who may be in need. It is also not a theatrical show, as the hypocrites were accused of in the New Testament.\nIt isn't done so people will think that we are 'spiritually superior' (Matt. 6: 16-18). That is not the right motive or attitude. We need to have a humble heart, and be aware of our own weaknesses and shortcomings. No one needs to know we are fasting.\nPrayer goes hand in hand. It is so important to couple fasting with prayer. Prayer for our Nation, our family and friends, the unsaved, our church leaders, ministries, missions, ourselves in the area of things we need real breakthrough in, and God's direction, purpose and plan for our lives. There is so much in need of our prayers. God can do mighty things in the spiritual realm, when we pray and fast - as long as we are in the right spirit of the fast. There are times we need to fast - but it shouldn't become a religious, legalistic thing.\nThere are basically four different types of fasts:\n1 - Full Fast\nDrink only liquids (you establish the number of days).\n2 - The Daniel Fast\nEat no meat, no sweets and no bread. Drink water and juice. Eat fruits and vegetables. One type of partial fast that is gaining popularity among individuals and churches is the Daniel Fast. On this fast, commonly enjoyed foods are restricted for 21 days as you devote yourself to seeking the Lord.\nThe food guidelines for the Daniel Fast are based upon accounts of Daniel\u2019s fasting experiences as recorded in the Bible. In Daniel 10, Daniel received a vision from the Lord that allowed him to see what would happen to the Israelites as result of their disobedience. Daniel was so grieved over what the Lord revealed to him that he entered into a state of mourning, or fasting. The Bible says that he ate no choice food and had no meat or wine for three weeks (10:2-3\n3 - Day Fast\nThis fast can be a Full Fast, Daniel Fast or give up at least one item of food.\n4 - Partial Fast\nA partial fast is from 6:00 am to 3:00 pm or from sun up to sundown. You can select from any of these types of fasting \u2014a Full Fast, Daniel Fast or give up at least one item of food.\nMany couples might wonder it is alright for them to make love during a fast. In both the Old and New Testaments, God never commands couples to avoid sexual relations. It is amazing that God has warned us to not do certain things, but He never warns nor commands married couples to stop having sex.\nPaul says there is only one reason to not have sexual relations. It is for the purpose of prayer - for a short period of time. Apparently, some Christians in the city of Corinth thought there was virtue in avoiding sexual relations with one's spouse. One of the spouses or maybe both thought it was good to regularly avoid sexual relations. Many believe that only men have a strong desire for sexual relations, but that is not true. Generally men do have the greater desire, but both men and women crave sex - some more than others and to greater degrees at different times in their lives. When a man does not want sexual relationships, there is usually something medically wrong with him or there is an emotional situation with his wife.\nOur children don't have to be exempt either, to teach fasting to our children at a young age will help them in years to come to control themselves in many ways. In an age where fad diets, health and nutrition are fueled by fashion with risks of anorexia and other eating disorders, those with teenage daughters should be alert, their fasting should be closely monitored. Fasting is not fasting if it is not accompanied by prayer, self examination, works of love, increased worship, and repentance from sin and we should remind them of that.\nEnjoyment is one thing, but power is quite another. It has been truly remarked, that \"enjoyment is for heaven, but power is for earth.\" There is no opposition in heaven: everything there is favorable to the new life we possess in the Spirit. As the Spirit leads our souls into the enjoyment of our heavenly portion in Christ, our souls are sometimes outside ourselves and seen things. But the moment we go out into the world, we find ourselves in a contrary element. We find the whole array of Satan's power is against us to hinder our standing for Christ. The moment we are for Christ here, we must expect opposition. And nothing but divine power can enable us to stand against the adversary.\nLabels: Christian lifestyle, family life, fasting, spiritual discipline",

Brown won a Golden Globe for his role in the NBC series This Is Us, and the show also picked up a nomination in the best drama category. This time around, however, the dramatic series was completely shut out.\nOther snubs and surprises from this year\u2019s Golden Globe nominations included:\nRyan Gosling: He\u2019s previously been nominated for five Golden Globes and in 2017, he won for best comedic actor for his role in La La Land. But Gosling, who starred as Neil Armstrong in First Man, was left out of the best actor in a drama category this year. His co-star, Claire Foy, was honored with a best actress nod.\nYalitza Aparicio: Roma was ineligible for a best picture nomination but still earned nods in the best foreign language film, best director and best screenplay categories. Some expected its star, actress Yalitza Aparicio, to be nominated in the best dramatic actress category. Alas, she was not.\nA Quiet Place: When it came out in April, the horror film \u2014 directed by and co-starring John Krasinski \u2014 began to generate awards season buzz. However, the film received just one Golden Globe nomination, for best score.\nThe Handmaid\u2019s Tale: The Hulu drama won for best dramatic series and best actress in a drama at this year\u2019s Golden Globes. Though Elisabeth Moss picked up a nomination in the latter category this time around, the show was shut out of the best drama category.\nAtlanta: In 2017, the FX comedy-drama won the Golden Globe for best comedy. This time around, its only nod went to Donald Glover, who was recognized in the best comedic actor category.\nManiac: With an all-star cast including Emma Stone, Jonah Hill and Justin Theroux, it was easy to assume that Netflix\u2019s Maniac would receive some love from the Hollywood Foreign Press Association Thursday. Alas. While Stone was recognized for her role in the film The Favourite, her series received zero nominations.\nBob Odenkirk: For the first time in four years, the Better Call Saul actor wasn\u2019t nominated in the best dramatic actor category.\nWestworld: Thandie Newton picked up a nomination for best supporting actress but Westworld, which was nominated for best drama in 2017, was otherwise shut out.\nDebra Messing and Candice Bergen: Though the reboot of Will & Grace has been recognized by the Hollywood Foreign Press in the past, Debra Messing hasn\u2019t secured her own nomination for playing Grace Adler since its original iteration went off the air. This year, not only did she earn a nomination in the comedic best actress category, so did Candice Bergen, whose series Murphy Brown returned to TV this year.\nJim Carrey: No stranger to the Golden Globes \u2014 he\u2019s won two \u2014 some may have been surprised to hear Carrey\u2019s name called in the best comedic actors category for his role in the Showtime series Kidding.

        "raw_content": "Who worked for nothin' in the war? When they work for nothin', I'll work for nothin'. Did they ship a gun or a truck out of Detroit before they got their price? Is that clean? It's dollars and cents, nickels and dimes. What's clean? Half the Goddam country is gotta go [to jail} if I go!. . .Why am I bad?\u2014 Joe Keller rationalizing his selling cracked sylinder heads to the Army Air Force.\nI know you're no worse than most men but I thought you were better. I never saw you as a man. I saw you as my father\u2014Chris, who like his fallen brother Larry, thinks his father should have realized the men fighting World War II were \"all his sons.\"\nJohn Lithgow, Dianne Wiest and Patrick Wilson (Photo: Joan Marcu)\nArthur Miller wrote All My Sons during the kitchen sink era of playwriting. But don't look for a kitchen sink in Simon McBurney's staging of this melodrama about a businessman who succumbs to the siren song of money even if it means shipping cracked cylinder heads to the Air Force during World War II.\nActually, Miller's plays have previously inspired directors to mount his plays with less naturalistic stagecraft. Michael Mayer's stark Hopper-like set for the 1997 revival of A View From the Bridge focused more on the backdrop of the Brooklyn Bridge than the furnishings of the Carbone home; Robert Falls' 1999 revival of Death of a Salesman was of a piece with the expressionistic dream scenes and the turntable set was furnished with the barest minimum of props. Thus McBurney, best known for his Complicit\u00e9 company's cutting edge work, is not the first to take a Miller classic into experimental territory. In fact, he has been quoted as saying that he felt free to do so, after Miller, during a chance meeting, told him that he thought directors took his plays too literally.\nMcBurney has not just stripped the Keller home of furnishings but torn down the walls, leaving only an upstage door leading to a vast, barren backyard devoid of the homey-ness associated with middle class Americana. While that backyard with its chainlink fences leading to the neighboring houses is not particularly attractive and the glimpses of actors waiting to return to center stage in the wings on each side tend to be distracting, it is one of many ways Mr. McBurney takes this sixty-year-old play into the twenty-first century.\nThe overall production chucks realism off the stage, even before the Keller's tragic saga begins, the entire cast walks on stage in a sort of reverse curtain call. John Lithgow, who plays the morally compromised businessman Joe Keller, steps forward, announces that the play is about to begin and reads the first few lines of the script. (\"The backyard of the Keller home on the outskirts of an American town. . .\". His words are also projected on a back panel, as are scene announcements throughout. This is followed by a very brief, wordless storm scene during which we see the insomniac Kate Keller (Dianne Wiest) watching the lone tree in the yard collapse. This haunting prologue was first featured in the revival Howard Davies helmed in London eight years ago. However, the Brechtian prologue and the filmic elements which, in addition to the projected scene announcements include newsreel-like footage uderscored by Christopher Schutt and Carolyn Downing's ominous sound design are McBurneyisms.\nWhether you're old enough to remember \u2014and prefer\u2014the original 1947 production, the film, or the Williamstown Theatre Festivals fine 50th anniversary presentation ( for which Miller was still on hand) that traveled to the Roundabout in New York, the play itself retains its power, no matter how it's staged. To borrow from my review of that 1999 production: Sure it's a melodrama mounted on a soap box, but it works even after all these years because it's peopled with memorable flesh and blood characters. It grips and convinces because the playwright never loads a scene with an undischarged bullet (i.e.: Joe Keller's \"I'm his father and he's my son, and if there's something bigger than that I'll put a bullet in my head\").\nThe fact that this story about the tragic consequences of the lapse from decency of an \"ordinary\" American businessman like Joe Keller is a World War II period piece doesn't keep it from but still hitting the emotional bulls eye. It is grounded in a time-transcending, universal theme, as summed up towards the end of the play by Chris Keller (Patrick Wilson) to his mother (Dianne Wiest): \"Once and for all you must know that there's a universe of people outside, and you're responsible to it.\" Unfortunately, Chris' eloquent plea still falls on many a deaf ear and the current war's instances of greed-above-all make Joe Keller's knowingly selling defective plane engine parts to the Army during World War II way too timely.\nAs the current production amply illustrates, All My Sons is also very much a vehicle for fine acting. John Lithgow is a strong Joe Keller. He charms and cajoles, and finally caves in under the weight of the drama's climax.\nPatrick Wilson has finally found a role to showcase his power as a dramatic actor. We see him first as a loyal and loving son, a genuinely good man. He wants to marry Ann (Katie Holmes), who was engaged to his missing in action brother (dead to all but his mother). Ann's family history is painfully linked to the Kellers' double tragedy: the loss of a son, and the disgrace over the flawed airplane parts. Watching Chris metamorphose from optimism to bitter wisdom, after Ann's brother George (a superb cameo from Christian Camargo) follows her to the Keller home boiling with rage after becoming aware of the unjusft fate of his father who's \"become a little man\" because \"that's what happens to suckers\"\nWhile Dianne Wiest poignantly captures the complex emotions of a woman in deep retreat from the truth that makes the Kellers story a genuine Greek tragedy, the female role that's been getting all the pre-opening buzz is that of Katie Holmes Ann. While Holmes, whose Broadway debut this is, doesn't disgrace herself, and certainly is good too look at, her voice is too shrill and her performance lacking enough nuance for this to prompt shoutouts about the birth of a new Broadway star.\nThe production is blessed with a fine ensemble to give life to Miller's well developed secondary characters. Becky Ann Baker is particularly good as Sue Bayliss, the wife of a doctor who'd rather do research than practice general medicine.\nThis highly stylized and filmic staging in many ways suits the play's intensely melodramatic plot, but ultimately it's the inherent power of the play itself that makes it a welcome addition to the season's re-examination of dramas that have lasting substance.\nI've includes some highlights from the 60 Year History of All My Sons: at the end of the production notes.

The play opened on Broadway at the Coronet Theatre, directed by Elia Kazan. Ed Begley as Joe Keller, Beth Miller as Kate Keller, Arthur Kennedy as Chris Keller and Karl Malden as George Deever. It won the New York Drama Critics' Circle Award for Best Play but did not win friends amng the political right who attacked it as a smear on the American business community and the work of a Communist (the big dirty word of the time). The play was also denied a license to be performed in the occupied area of Europe by the Civil Affairs Division of the American Military (something of an irony when you consider that this came on the heels of a war fought for freedom (including freedom of speech).\n1948. A film adaptation starring Edward G. Robinson as Joe and Burt Lancaster as Chris was released and is still available.\n1987. A major Broadway revival with Richard Kiley as Joe Keller, Joyce Ebert as Kate Keller and Jamey Sheridan as Chris won a Tony for Best Revival.\n1996-1997. The play was revived at the Williamston Theatre Festival's small second stage, in conjunction with the United States premiere of Miller's new play, The Ride Down Mt. Morgan, on the larger Main Stage. The demand for tickets to All My Sons made it clear that it was the one that should have been in the larger theater-- a situation rectified when the production transferred to New York where it played to sell-out audiences and highest acclaim.\n2000. Howard Davies, directed a major London revival for the Royal National Theatre\nI agree with the review of All My Sons\nI disagree with the review of All My Sons\nThe review made me eager to see All My Sons",

        "raw_content": "CWU\u2014the largest producer of certified teachers within the state\u2014is studying new ways to increase the number of students of color seeking to become teachers.\nThe Washington Professional Educator Standards Board (PESB) recently selected CWU, along with several other higher education institutions, to participate in the PESB Pilot to Policy Grant: Advancing Systemic Equity. The goal of the program is to develop and implement policies and procedures surrounding issues of racial equity and local community engagement.\n\u201cTo initiate our effort, the grant team will go on a statewide listening tour to hear from current students of color in our \u2018Grow Your Own\u2019 (GYO) partnerships, current CWU teacher candidates of color, and recent CWU alumni of color from our various teacher education programs,\u201d said Professor Grace Blum, from CWU\u2019s Department of Education, Development, Teaching, and Learning.\nCWU\u2019s highly regarded GYO programs already help school districts develop staff from within their local communities to address hard-to-fill positions.\nBlum collaborated on the grant proposal with her faculty colleagues Eric Hougan and Keith Reyes, both from the Department of Curriculum, Supervision, and Educational Leadership. Blum and Hougan work at the CWU-Des Moines and CWU-Pierce County University Centers, while Reyes is based in Ellensburg.\n\u201cWe will be able to see both the challenges and opportunities our teachers of color face through analyzing their progression from being high school students themselves, to applying and enrolling as teacher candidates, graduation, certification, and to teaching in the field,\u201d Blum continued. \u201cThis type of comprehensive review will allow us to assess the effectiveness of our current institutional support around racial equity and, based on the findings, craft and implement an Equity Vision and Action Plan (EVAP).\u201d\nBlum, Hougan, and Reyes are also members of CWU\u2019s newly formed School of Education Diversity and Equity Committee.\n\u201cWe will present our findings and recommendations to this committee, laying the foundation for the subsequent approval of the formal EVAP by the School of Education,\u201d Hougan added.\nYear 2 of the grant will focus on the implementation of the approved action plan.\n\u201cWe believe the plan will include developing a formalized mentorship network that supports our GYO students of color, current teacher candidates of color, and recent alumni of color from our teacher education programs,\u201d Reyes stated. \u201cWe will also look to communicate and hear feedback from all stakeholders at the university, and incorporate this input into policy.\u201d\nIn the last five years, CWU has experienced a dramatic, campus-wide increase in its enrolled students of color. That is born out in the percentage of Latinx teacher graduates, which rose between 2012 and 2017 from 7.9 to 14.3 percent. However, during that same timeframe, the percentage of African American teacher graduates remained virtually unchanged, growing slightly from 1.4 to 1.8 percent.\n\u201cThe focus of this work is crucial to teacher education as a whole and our work at CWU as we seek to increase access and recruitment of underrepresented populations into the profession,\u201d stated Ron Jacobson, executive director of the CWU School of Education. \u201cAs one of the largest producers of teachers in Washington, and with a reach across the state, CWU is perfectly situated to take on this challenge.\u201d\nCWU typically certifies between 300 and 350 new\u2014and needed\u2014teachers, principals, and school psychologist each year. The university now has teachers working in 70 percent of Washington\u2019s schools.\n\u201cIn the long term, along with more recruited and enrolled teacher candidates of color, we want to see the number and scope of community partnerships increased,\u201d Hougan noted. \u201cWe need to shape a seamless system of transition and support for our teachers; beginning with those interested in pursuing teaching as a career, to create a support network with resources for teachers of color in the workforce.\u201d\nThe two-year PESB grant program will continue through June of 2019.",

I remember being at my grandmother's on a Saturday afternoon watching videos and seeing this one for the first time. Joanna supposedly was an older woman who owned a diner, but flashbacks to her youth showed her being a dancer at The Cotton Club in Harlem.\nIt was a love song really and the string of hits by Kool & The Gang that followed (\"Tonight\", \"Fresh\", \"Misled\") ended up being dance classics that I love to this day.

He had dwelled - in those early books, at least - on the glory of choosing your own life, even when it takes ruthlessness to do it.\nBut now it occurred to her that he had only written about the beginning of the journey.

And she felt that she was seeing the consequences , every day, in what she was seeing of him.\nYou seize your freedom in a spirit of rebelliousness, exuberance, defiant joy.

        "raw_content": "Is Taylor Swift a Good Role Model? by Chinwe Oniah\nDiahann Williams June 24, 2015\nWith all the Taylor Swift talk that is circulating the web 24/7 Chinwe Oniah took the time and beautifully wrote this piece about her influence.\nIs Taylor Swift a Good Role Model?\nIn 2013, Lorde was quoted saying that Taylor Swift is not a role model for girls.\n\u201cTaylor Swift is so flawless, and so unattainable, and I don\u2019t think it\u2019s breeding anything good in young girls. \u2018I\u2019m never going to be like Taylor Swift, why can\u2019t I be as pretty as Lorde?\u2019 That\u2019s fucking bullshit,\u201d she said to Metro Magazine.\nBeside the fact that Lorde might be eating her words since the two are now besties, the talented (and beautiful I might add) Kiwi had a point. Should young girls really be striving to be the next Taylor Swift? I say \u201chell no.\u201d\nShe is not a good role model because she doesn\u2019t take responsibility for her role in her failed romantic relationships and she fills teens\u2019 heads with fairy tale stories about making it in the real world without informing them of the struggle to get there. I also think that she can be petty, perpetuating girl-on-girl hate.\nWomen make mistakes. That\u2019s how we grow, but Taylor Swift lives a life where she is above mistakes, most notably her love life. Her music has changed from country to pop, but she\u2019s still writing about the same things. She never acknowledges her role in one of her many-dissolved relationships and makes is seem like she is completely blameless.\nI don\u2019t think that being a woman is a simple venture. I think that women are more than the sum of their parts. Being a woman doesn\u2019t mean that we should be herded like cattle. Women are humans like men are and come in all shapes, sizes and temperaments. I believe that women are seen as objects that can be controlled and handled and we are not seen as human beings.\nWhen women internalize and perpetuate those thoughts and beliefs, it becomes extremely problematic to the equality of the sexes. There are women in high places who tell women how they should be, what they should wear, and what kind of people they need to be to get ahead in life. Taylor Swift is one of those women.\nLook at her failed relationship with John Mayer. She wrote a song about him (as she does with most of her ex\u2019s) entitled \u201cJohn.\u201d In the song she writes, \u201cDon't you think I was too young to be messed with? The girl in the dress cried the whole way home. I should've known.\u201d She allegedly blames Mayer for playing her, but in the song she admits that she was too young for him. Armed with the fact that she was too young for Mayer, she still decided to date him. She can\u2019t completely put the blame on Mayer for their failed relationship if it was doomed from the start. It takes two to tango. Mayer should have realized that he was too old for her and Swift should have accepted that she was too young for him and not have pursued the relationship.\nThis would have been a great moment to show women that we are human and that sometimes women make mistakes. Swift is perpetuating this image of the virginal woman to appeal to the male gaze. Even in her videos, she vilifies the \u2018other woman\u2019 as being sexually mischievous while she remains the \u2018good girl\u2019 who deserves good things because she\u2019s kept her legs closed. To acknowledge that she made a mistake would have been to acknowledge her humanity, her femininity, and give her class. Being classy is contingent on how people handle themselves in the face of adversity. Swift has not handled herself well in the face of adversity. She doesn\u2019t just \u2018shake it off.\u2019 She manipulates the situation to put herself on top and buries the carnage so she doesn\u2019t have to acknowledge it.\nWe\u2019re in a world where we are teaching girls that mistakes make you a failure when in fact mistakes allows you to grow as a person. Why should we offer up Taylor Swift as a role model when she is an unrealistic version of women should be and doesn\u2019t want to face her own reality?\nShe also seems to have an inflated sense of importance. In her recent move to New York, she claimed to have conquered the city and that she no longer feared it. In her 1989 album the opening single was called \u201cWelcome to New York.\u201d I guessed some government official thought that because of that song, Swift would make a great NYC\u2019s Global Welcome Ambassador.\nBut what the hell does Taylor Swift know about New York City? Native New Yorkers complain about the rampant gentrification that is happening in their neighborhoods. They are ever confronted by homelessness on their ways to work. They\u2019re complaining about rent. The police. The metro fair increases. New Yorkers complain about things that Swift can easily get herself out of because of her fortune. She can\u2019t possible think she has conquered the city if she hasn\u2019t had any of these experiences. Julianne Escobedo Shepherd said best in her article in Jezebel, \u201cSwift didn't move to one of the most expensive cities in the US to \u2018make it\u2019; she moved because she'd already \u2018made it.\u2019\u201d\nThe city has not embraced her like she thinks they have. At least I haven\u2019t. How can she be the ambassador of one of the toughest cities in the country and not have the emotional scars to prove it? It\u2019s a battle living here and she was too scared to suit up for it, yet she wants to give these false hopes and dreams that moving to New York City is going to be peachy keen. Why would I want to look up to someone who is perpetrating a lie?\nThen there\u2019s her feud with Katy Perry, which is absolutely petty. She did an interview with Rolling Stone where she hints at a rivalry with another pop star. Through the information that she gave, people were able to put it together that she was talking about Perry. To publically mention your feud with another pop star, I feel, is in bad taste, even if she withheld her name. She should have taken the high road and not have even acknowledged that another pop star was mean to her. She knows what she\u2019s doing when she puts that information out there.\nTaylor Swift, you are not an angel and you should stop purporting yourself to be one. We don\u2019t know much about your life and your private life is really none of our business, but what you show is enough to call you out on your BS.\n\u2190 Color...Tiffany Rothe's Killer Lower Ab Workout \u2192",

The global power has also been highly critical of the human-rights record of the former government of strongman president Mahinda Rajapakse.\nSeveral senior military commanders from the Rajapakse regime have been denied visas to visit the US.\nThe US funding for Sri Lanka is part of a $300 million package Washington is setting aside for South and Southeast Asia to ensure a \"free, open, and rules-based order in the Indo-Pacific region\".\nChina has vowed to keep providing financial help, including loans, to Sri Lanka despite warnings about the island nation's mounting debt.\nSri Lanka last year granted a 99-year lease on a strategic port to Beijing over its inability to repay Chinese loans for the $1.4 billion project.\nThe port in Hambantota straddles the world's busiest east-west shipping route and also gives a strategic foothold to China in a region long dominated by India.\nThe International Monetary Fund, which bailed out Sri Lanka in June 2016 with a $1.5 billion staggered loan, has warned Colombo over its heavy debt.\nMore about Srilanka, US, China, Defence, Port\nSrilanka US China Defence Port Diplomacy",

        "raw_content": "Enterprise, Embedded Systems, and Virtualization\nDo they have different development challenges?\nWith us today is Wind River CTO Tomas Evensen. Tomas is also vice president and general manager of the Wind River Tools product division.\nDr. Dobb's: Tomas, what's the biggest difference between Enterprise/IT Virtualized Environments (desktop) and Embedded Virtualization when developing software?\nTE: When developing for an IT hypervisor, most developers will not see a difference at all when comparing developing for the native operating system. The environments and binaries are typically identical. The same is true for embedded developers working at a high level. To them the virtualized and non-virtualized systems look the same.\nBut for embedded developers that are doing lower level of development, doing I/O on specific devices and optimizing the whole system to run as fast as possible, there is a difference. In an embedded hypervisor there are many \u201cknobs\u201d to turn when it comes to configuration that affects performance. For example, an embedded systems developer need to make some decisions on which OS the I/O devices should be mapped to.\nIn the IT space, very few developers are involved with systems programming (devices, memory maps, etc.). That is done once. Every embedded system looks a bit different and to get the most performance out of a given device, more effort is involved at the systems level.\nDr. Dobb's: Is it easier for programmers to move from embedded to desktop, or from desktop to embedded?\nTE: It is always dangerous to generalize, but it is typically much easier to move from embedded to desktop for a multitude of reasons:\nFor the desktop you are developing for a full-fledged machine that has a very rich OS environment. Embedded systems are often much more scaled down for cost reasons.\nThe desktop hardware (a PC or server) is very stable. Embedded programmers often develop for systems that are being designed and developed in parallel with the software.\nWhen debugging on a desktop, you run your code on the same machine as your dev tools (native development). This simplifies things a lot. For an embedded system, the host and the target systems are typically separate (cross developments), which introduces a lot of extra variables (flaky connections, limited resources, etc.)\nEmbedded systems typically have a lot more hardware interaction directly from the application code. Specialized devices etc. Both to understand the hardware and to debug code that interacts with hardware is notoriously difficult.\nIT/desktop developers are on a constant path to higher abstraction levels (binary code -> assembly -> C -> Java/C# -> J2EE/.net ->...). Even though it takes time to learn the higher abstraction layers, they also simplify development a lot (hopefully). Since these kind of abstraction levels seem to add overhead that surpasses Moore\u2019s law, most embedded systems are still programmed using fairly low-level languages (C/C++, Java in some specific verticals). Some people would argue that the jury is out when it comes to how much more efficient you become by using higher level abstractions, but this is a big difference. Even if you use C/C++ on your desktop, you typically have a much richer library environment to take care of common things.\nIn fact, many embedded developers start out with developing and testing their embedded software on the host (either using a simulator or using the host OS) and then port it over to the embedded platform when it is somewhat stable.\nDr. Dobb's: Are there differences between debugging multicore desktop systems and debugging multicore embedded platforms?\nTE: Most of the differences are described above (limited, sometimes flaky hardware, cross debugging, interactions with hardware). One of the biggest hurdles I have seen for programmers making the transition to embedded development is that in order to be effective, you have to understand a lot more about the underlying system. Most good embedded developers look routinely at the generated assembly code to understand the behavior of the system. This is pretty rare for desktop programmers.\nDr. Dobb's: Where can readers go for more information on these topics?\nTE: A good place to start is the Wind River website. There's lots of information there, particularly in regards to hypervisors. And Mark Hermeling's blog is always good.",

        "title": "So Many Unanswered Questions | DSLRBodies | Thom Hogan",
        "raw_content": "Here we are two months post D5/D500 announcement, a weeks after the DL announcements, and we have so many important, unanswered questions still. Here are the things I\u2019ll be looking for answers to over the next three (!) months:\nWhat\u2019s the real scoop on noise and dynamic range performance? We\u2019ve seen plenty of D5 JPEGs that are impressive, but these are processed images. What we need to see is what happens with raw with no noise reduction to be able to assess how far we\u2019ve really come with the sensors. (Update: Bill Claff has some initial D5 measurements.) Moreover, the D500 specs seem to indicate that it\u2019s significantly better than a D7200, which would be a real surprise, because the D7200 is in a class by itself, within a half stop of 24mp FX sensors. We need real cameras to test for this, and some controlled shooting in raw to get the full story. Fortunately, by next week the D5 characteristics should be well known.\nWhen is the D500 really going to make it to market? The current belief is that it\u2019ll ship April 21st. Still, I\u2019m more suspicious today than I was in January that the D500 was a rushed announcement. The delay \u201cdue to demand\u201d is also seeming to feel a little false the longer we go without any chatter from the Nikon Ambassadors about the camera being used in real situations. I suspect no one really has a version 1.00 firmware product in their hands yet, and a totally new sensor isn\u2019t something you easily turn on in volume, especially if it\u2019s stacked as some suspect.\nWhy were the DLs announced over three months before they\u2019ll appear? It\u2019s a bit non-Nikon to be so far out in front of the actual shipment with product announcements. Yes, they\u2019ve done it a few times before, but almost always with \u201cdevelopment announcements,\u201d not actual full product launches. As I\u2019ve noted, putting them on the Web sites has pushed existing lenses off the first page of products, which seems a strange thing to do for a product that isn\u2019t shipping versus one for which you\u2019re trying to sell existing inventory. The fact that Nikon is taking pre-orders themselves on DL models puts them clearly into grounds where they\u2019ll soon be in violation of the FTC\u2019s \u201cprompt delivery\u201d rules. After 30 days, Nikon is going to have to notify all those customers that ordered on the Nikon Web site of their rights to cancel. Coupled with the D500 pre-announcement, I\u2019m starting to wonder whether Nikon made all these announcements to try to tackle the short sellers of their stock. If so it\u2019s a risky strategy, as it can totally backfire.\nDoes Autofocus Fine Tune actually work? This is one I\u2019m going to be looking at very carefully. I\u2019m guessing that Nikon is going to have a problem on their hands, and its name is 80-400mm AF-S VR. What? Why do I say that? For some time now, I\u2019ve been aware that quite a few of the newer 80-400mm lenses don\u2019t accurately focus in live view at 400mm. After encountering three such samples, I asked Roger Cicala at Lens Rentals to do a quick test on his stock, and he found the same thing as I: quite a few samples don\u2019t reliably autofocus in live view. I reported this to NikonUSA, but got no response. Note that these lenses all focus just fine in normal operation, it\u2019s only in live view that we\u2019ve seen any issues. But the D5/D500 use live view to do the automatic fine tuning. So the very first thing I\u2019m going to do is mount an 80-400mm that I know doesn\u2019t accurately live view focus on my D810 and see what it does on the D5. So why I haven\u2019t written about this before? Well, I\u2019ve hinted at it, and I was actually hoping that I\u2019d get a response from Nikon by now. But thing is, it would be rare that you\u2019d use live view at 400mm. Extremely rare. So it ain\u2019t a big thing. Except now with Automatic Autofocus Fine Tune, it might be ;~).\nWhere does the Nikon 1 go? The DLs basically box in the Nikon 1, as I\u2019ve noted before. It\u2019s almost come to this: I\u2019d rather have the three DLs than one Nikon 1 body and any three CX lenses you can name. And those DLs would probably cost less. Ouch. If the Nikon 1 is a dead end as many of us now expect, that has implications on what Nikon does next. I don\u2019t think, for example, that they can successfully introduce any new mirrorless system that doesn\u2019t use the F-mount lenses. Why? Because the two times they\u2019ve tried a new lens system (film APS and CX) it\u2019s failed. But who knows, maybe Nikon is smarter than me. Maybe they have a secret plan for Nikon 1 that will wow enough people to keep it alive. I\u2019ve asked a lot of folk whether they could think of any such plan and they\u2019ve all come up empty, though. The best anyone can come up with is \u201cfix the V series with a better designed V4.\u201d I don\u2019t think that saves Nikon 1, it just keeps some of the committed in place for awhile.\nAnd speaking of lenses, where are they? We have those quotes from Nikon executives last year that people will be happy with the DX lenses that are coming. Uh, that would be the 18-55mm P and the 16-80mm E? Yes, I\u2019m happy with the 16-80mm E, but is that it? You make a potentially seminal camera (D500) and give it one new lens that\u2019s basically a replacement for an existing one? No, Nikon executives, we\u2019re not happy with that. But moreover, we haven\u2019t had any lens introductions other than the 18-55mm P kit lens this year. Nada. In terms of F-mount lenses, annual history goes like this in the digital era: 6, 5, 5, 3, 3, 4, 7, 7, 4, 9, 6, 6, 5, 5, 8, then 1 so far this year (I count the two versions of the P as one, as I have any previous VR/non-VR pairing). So we need to see some glass action from Nikon. The good news is that recent introductions have all been winners or good steps forward. But suddenly we\u2019re not taking steps.\nWhat I\u2019m not looking for an answer for is actually the new autofocus system on the D5/D500. I\u2019m assuming that we\u2019re going to get a clear step forward there, and the few folk I know that have had a chance to shoot with the D5 seem to confirm that. Snappier, more accurate, and better tracking options are the early reports. I\u2019ll obviously be looking to confirm that, but given Nikon\u2019s track record on focus systems, I have no reason to doubt both Nikon\u2019s claims and the early field reports. About the only thing that concerns me at all is the four obvious vertical gaps in the coverage, and even then primarily only on the D500, where they occupy more image area.\nThis is a year where we should get some answers to the big questions. Where exactly are Canon and Nikon going? Does mirrorless do more than run in place? Does the trend towards higher end really resonate and keep the camera makers\u2019 heads above water? Do the 1\u201d compacts become the new norm?\nBy the time Photokina finishes in September, we should have a lot of answers. While it\u2019s way too early to say anything useful, the January 2016 CIPA numbers were basically more of the same: DSLRs clearly down again, mirrorless still in the same basic range as before, though slightly up.",

        "raw_content": "About The Dubnoff Center for Child Development\nThe Dubnoff Center for Child Development nurtures the potential in each child with developmental, emotional, and/or behavioral challenges. The Center specializes in providing integrated educational, clinical and vocational services so that these children and their families can lead more productive lives.\n- Each child\u2019s unique situation, needs and goals are paramount.\n- They instill self-respect, self reliance and pride in every child.\n- They support the family so that each child succeeds in school and in the community.\n- Their staff is professional, dedicated and comp assionate.\nEstablished in 1948 as a private school for elementary age children with special learning and developmental needs, Dubnoff Center pioneered the development of educational programs and curricula to enable the child with atypical development to learn and develop as normally as possible within a personalized, structured and therapeutic learning environment.\nFrom its humble beginnings as a private\nspecial school for young children on the west side of Los Angeles, grew the current concept of a comprehensive community service setting, integrating special education with clinical treatment and residential care, vocational training and related support services.\nThe first classroom was fashioned in\nthe bedroom of founder Belle Dubnoff's home. Belle's student population numbered three. No curriculum materials were available, so the determined special\neducation pioneer created special materials for each child. As her staff and expertise increased, Dubnoff Center's curriculum materials grew in demand, and became available in workbooks, filmstrips and films. They were then distributed throughout the world.\nBelle's outreach continued. Dubnoff was home to one of the first preschool early intervention programs for children birth to five, considered to be at high risk. To accommodate its growing population, the school moved from site to site, finally settling at its current North Hollywood location in 1962. At that time, the student population at 10526 Victory Place consisted of children from birth to 15 years old.\nAt their 40th Anniversary Celebration in 1988, the City of Los Angeles honored the Center by renaming Victory Place as Dubnoff Way. And so it remains to this day.\nIn 1977, the Dubnoff Center expanded its services yet again to establish residential model group homes. The initial home was the Clybourn Home, which served six adolescent boys as an alternative to placement in large institutions. Dubnoff currently operates two group homes, serving 12 adolescent boys through the Department of Social Services and the Department of Mental Health.\nAt the Center's Day School, interventions are provided annually to more than 200 children ages 5 through 22 by skilled caring professionals, responsible to meet the present and emerging needs of special needs children and their families residing in Los Angeles and throughout the state. The Child Care Center, started in the early 1970s, today prepares 26 children for successful entry into English-speaking kindergarten classrooms.\nToday, Dubnoff Center is recognized as a unique full service educational and clinical agency, committed to seriously challenged children and youth, and their families for whom there are no other appropriate programs. Since 1948, more than 6,000 families have benefited from Belle Dubnoff's vision, which continues to reach the hearts and\nminds of special needs children and their families.\nDubnoff Center takes pride in being a place where each year more than 200 children with enduring life challenges can achieve their potential for personal accomplishment.",

My early career was in technical and contract management, spending 21 years working for NCB/British Coal. This career brought me to Exeter in 1991. I relocated from Nottinghamshire to Hazel Court in Kersbrook (at the boundary edge of the Parish), with my late partner Sandra Smith (who died in 2006 and is buried in the East Budleigh graveyard.) We came to love this part of East Devon and acted as a host family for mature students coming to the Accent language school at Bicton College. After my corporate days I retrained at Bicton as a horticulturist and I was involved in the Walled Kitchen garden restoration at NT Knightshayes for its first 5 years.\nIn retirement, I have served as a Trustee for the Devon Gardens Trust (for 3 terms of three years). The latter was as Chairman of the Conservation Committee and overseeing their role as a statutory consultee on planning maters.

        "raw_content": "Mary Ann Smith comments on REST shelter situation Reviewed by Edgeville Buzz on December 5, 2008 .\nFrom the 48th Ward Bulletin email: The plan to relocate the R.E.S.T. men\u2019s shelter, which had been located at Epworth Baptist Church, to the former Pasteur Restaurant building has fallen through. Inner Voice, the not-for-profit agency that administers the management contracts with R.E.S.T. and other homeless shelter providers for the City of Chicago, evaluated the [\u2026]\nMary Ann Smith comments on REST shelter situation\nFrom the 48th Ward Bulletin email:\nThe plan to relocate the R.E.S.T. men\u2019s shelter, which had been located at Epworth Baptist Church, to the former Pasteur Restaurant building has fallen through. Inner Voice, the not-for-profit agency that administers the management contracts with R.E.S.T. and other homeless shelter providers for the City of Chicago, evaluated the site at 5525 N. Broadway and decided the location would not be suitable for a temporary shelter. Alderman Smith\u2019s office explored every viable option suggested in the 48th Ward.\nBecause of their concern for the people who would be displaced, and despite the financial challenges involved with housing the shelter, Epworth Church shelter has compassionately agreed to allow the shelter to remain housed in their facility location until January 2, 2009. Although there are discussions underway regarding other possible sites for the shelter, these locations are not in the 48th Ward.\nWhatever the outcome, the potential loss of shelter beds will have consequences for both the homeless and the community. As a neighborhood, there may be more men sleeping in our parks, alleys and vestibules. For the homeless, the result of being without shelter during a Chicago winter can be disastrous.\nThe challenges this presents will be met in three ways:\n1. Over the next few weeks, the City\u2019s Department of Human Services (DHS) will expand the number of beds at other locations. A van will be stationed at Peoples Church on Lawrence at Sheridan. This is a location where, for years, men who need a place to sleep for the night have gone to be assigned to a bed. When the shelter at PeoplesChurch is at capacity, the van will transport men to other facilities \u2014 if they are willing to go. They will be strongly encouraged to do so.\n2. DHS also is committed to having staff repeatedly visit the homeless who are sleeping outdoors during the winter to try to convince them to accept help and go to an indoor shelter.\n3. Alderman Smith\u2019s office will work to ensure that relevant laws, such as the 11 p.m. park closing, are enforced and to have boxes, mattresses and clutter removed from the alleys. This is not heartless; it is essential. If the options of sleeping in a cardboard box in an alley or under a tree in the park are not available, the homeless may be more willing to accept the invitation to go to an indoor shelter and get the help and resources available from DHS and other agencies.\nAt the November 48th Ward Zoning and Planning Committee meeting, delegates and guests spoke about the need to provide for the homeless and how this is a long-term problem that must be addressed with realistic, compassionate long-term solutions. Alderman Smith\u2019s office has begun working with advocacy and constituent groups to develop such solutions and will report back to the community through Zoning and Planning and via this newsletter. If you would like to be part of this working group, please e-mail Doug Fraser, chief of staff, doug@masmith48.org.\nIn addition, we have created a Yahoo Groups forum to enable people to express their opinions about the issue, and connect those who have the ideas and energy to work toward solutions on a local level. You can join the group here.\nTags: 48th Ward, Alderman Smith, Broadway, homeless, not for profit, Pasteur, REST shelter\nBon Bon featured in Chicago Tribune article December 5, 2008 / By Edgeville Buzz",

        "raw_content": "Student Spotlight: M\u00e1t\u00e9 Opoldusz and J\u00e1nos Horv\u00e1th- Purdue University\nM\u00e1t\u00e9 and J\u00e1nos are both Hungarian students that were interested in the STEM field. By meeting with staff in the EducationUSA Office, they both decided that Purdue University was the place for them to pursue their graduate studies. M\u00e1t\u00e9 had completed his time at Purdue by the time J\u00e1nos decided to study there, and so the EducationUSA Office contacted M\u00e1t\u00e9 to ask if he would be willing to help J\u00e1nos as he pursued the opportunity at Purdue University. Fortunately for J\u00e1nos, he had guidance from both the EducationUSA Office and M\u00e1t\u00e9 during the application process. This mentorship concept is something that EducationUSA strives to continue as we work with more students who are attending Hungarian alumni institutions.\nInterviewer: Kayla Etherton\nM\u00e1t\u00e9 Opoldusz\nM\u00e1t\u00e9 completed his two-year MS degree at Purdue University through the Fulbright Scholarship and says that it has opened many doors for him since he has returned home. Read more about his experience here:\nQ: How did you hear about the Fulbright Program? How did you choose Purdue University?\nI learned about the Fulbright Program through a simple poster on a wall at my university. It made me curious, as I had never entertained the thought of studying in the US before.\nMy choice to go to Purdue University was governed by the fact that the Hungarian Fulbright Commission just established a new Fulbright \u2013 STEM Student Grant at Purdue University. It was the first time I\u2019d heard about Purdue, but after quick research on it I was convinced that it was the perfect place for me.\nQ: How did EducationUSA assist you in your educational goals?\nThe people at the Hungarian EducationUSA Advising Center were very helpful from day one. They helped at every step of the application process. For example, they held several workshops free of charge to help with the essay or CV writing. They provided CDs and books for the TOEFL and GRE exams. Their help and encouragement were invaluable.\nQ: What was your experience at Purdue like? What are some things that you gained from being in the United States that you could not have gained in Hungary?\nMy time at Purdue was every bit as awesome as I expected. The campus was beautiful and huge, practically the whole of West Lafayette (the town of the University) is only there to serve the university in some way. I\u2019ve never felt lost at Purdue, if I was unsure about something (administrative paperwork, accommodation, course selection) I always had someone to turn to.\nThe system of education for graduate students is vastly different in the US in comparison to Hungary. You have much more freedom in your MS studies. For instance, in my case I didn\u2019t have to write a thesis to complete my studies and was free to select the courses that are most interesting and important to me. As long as your committee accepts your plan of study you can create your own path to the MS degree. Also, you can enroll in courses outside your department. This allowed me to learn about seismology which was very useful for me given my interest in seismic design of buildings.\nQ: How is your life different now as a result of Fulbright?\nStudying in a foreign country has its challenges, you must adapt to a new culture and a different education system. It forces you to move out from your comfort zone and gives you a secondary perspective on the world.\nAs a result of Fulbright, you\u2019ll become a lifelong member of an international organization of high-achieving people. This means that thanks to the alumni organizations you will get to meet with other Fulbright alumni, which is a great opportunity to network and to socialize.\nAlso, it is a major advantage during job-search.\nQ: If you could give a piece of advice to fellow Hungarians interested in studying in the US what would it be?\nDon\u2019t be discouraged by the lengthy and tiresome application process or the TOEFL and GRE exams. If you are truly determined to study in the US, with enough persistence you will accomplish your goal.\nJ\u00e1nos has just started his second semester of graduate studies in the United States. While he is still adjusting to his new life, he has had a very positive experience, including hands-on learning opportunities and mentorship from a Hungarian Purdue alumnus (M\u00e1t\u00e9, interviewed above). Check out his journey so far:\nQ: Why did you want to study in the United States?\nI wanted to study in the USA for two reasons. U.S. universities offer excellent education and are equipped with high-end, modern technology. Also, I spent several months in the USA during my childhood. This experience impacted me significantly.\nQ: What university are you at and what made you choose that university? What are you studying?\nI study in the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) at Purdue University. I chose Purdue ECE because it has an exceptional graduate program. Also, Purdue has a strong diverse international community and a capable International Students and Scholars Office (ISS). Furthermore, I received help from a Hungarian Purdue alumnus, M\u00e1t\u00e9 Opoldusz.\nThe Fulbright EducationUSA Advising Center helped me in numerous ways. Especially, I really appreciate Korn\u00e9lia Litkei\u2019s guidance and advice and Helen Shaw\u2019s help. The institute provided me with the opportunity to take mock-tests and offered to lend practice material for a very low price.\nQ: How did the Hungarian Purdue alumnus, M\u00e1t\u00e9, assist you in your educational journey to the US?\nAfter I showed interest in Purdue University, the EducationUSA Office gave me M\u00e1t\u00e9 Opoldusz\u2019s contact information. From the beginning, M\u00e1t\u00e9 was very supportive and eager to help. He answered all of my questions in detail. He gave me the contact information of his friend at Purdue and explained how I could contact the West Lafayette Hungarian community. After I travelled to Purdue University he communicated with me for several months to follow up with my progress.\nQ: What has your experience at your university been like? What are some things that you have gained from being in the United States that you could not have gained in Hungary?\nOverall, I am having very pleasant experience at Purdue. The campus is beautiful and people are very friendly. I really appreciate that the whole program is practice-orientated. Classes are focused around projects and team work. I joined Video and Image Processing Laboratory (VIPER), directed by Professor Edward J. Delp. In, the laboratory, I work with cutting edge technology and do research in image processing.\nStart planning as early as possible. Many people and organizations want to help you in your application, search for them.\nQ: Anything else that you would like to include?\nI received a lot of help through my application. I would like to thank the Fulbright EducationUSA Advising Center, Korn\u00e9lia Litkei, M\u00e1t\u00e9 Opoldusz, my family and others for the help in my application. I would not be in Purdue University without their help.",

        "raw_content": "Gary Player CC, Sun City, South Africa 08 Nov 2018 - 11 Nov 2018\nCoetzee targets home soil win in Sun City\nGeorge Coetzee (European Tour)\nHome favourite George Coetzee has confirmed his participation in the Nedbank Golf Challenge hosted by Gary Player, the penultimate Rolex Series event on the European Tour\u2019s Race to Dubai, from November 8-11, 2018.\nAs the 2017-18 Sunshine Tour Order of Merit winner, Coetzee qualifies automatically for the event, in a season in which he has already triumphed on South African soil, capturing his second career Tshwane Open title in March. He will now tee it up in an elite field that includes 2017 Masters Champion Sergio Garcia at the Gary Player Country Club in Sun City.\nThe 31 year old, who currently sits 41st in the Race to Dubai Rankings presented by Rolex, has shown a propensity for winning at home with three of his four European Tour victories coming in South Africa.\nCoetzee will look to follow in the footsteps of fellow countryman Branden Grace, who prevailed by a single shot at last year\u2019s Nedbank Golf Challenge to become the first home winner of the event since Trevor Immelman in 2007, in the tournament\u2019s inaugural year as a Rolex Series event.\n\u201cI\u2019m really looking forward to playing the Nedbank Golf Challenge this year,\u201d Coetzee said. \u201cGary Player is genuinely a legend of our sport, and, for him to host it, it really doesn\u2019t get any better.\n\u201cIt\u2019s a fantastic tournament and I know all the players really enjoy coming out to South Africa because it is such a great week and an amazing place to visit. I\u2019ve played the last couple of years and it\u2019s obviously one that I want to be in the mix for.\u201d\nIn 2014, Coetzee claimed his maiden European Tour victory at the Joburg Open, and then followed it up in 2015 with his first Tshwane Open trophy at his home course Pretoria Country Club. He went on to defeat Thorbj\u00f8rn Olesen in a play-off later that season to take the 2015 AfrAsia Bank Mauritius Open, but was side-lined by a surfing injury not long afterwards.\nAfter his second Tshwane title, he said: \u201cA lot has happened since the last time I held that trophy. I broke my ankle and I kind of needed to show myself that I could win on Tour again and it's nice to come and do it again in front of the home crowd.\u201d\nTournament host Gary Player said: \u201cWhen the top players from around the world commit to play early, it creates a domino effect that helps us attract a world-class field to Sun City. I am thrilled George will be back, and he is already having a terrific season. We look forward to adding more of the world\u2019s best players to the Nedbank Golf Challenge.\u201d\nAnthony Leeming, Chief Executive of Sun International added: \u201cGeorge is a fantastic addition to what is always a strong South African contingent in the Nedbank Golf Challenge, hosted by Gary Player. He is a proven European Tour winner and forms part of this current generation of South African golfers who grew up watching this tournament and who now want to make their own mark in this prestigious event. Branden Grace has started this process with his victory last year, and I\u2019ve no doubt that a fit again George Coetzee will be just as keen to add \u2018Africa\u2019s Major\u2019 to his growing list of titles.\u201d\nAn event steeped in history, the Nedbank Golf Challenge list of former champions features a who\u2019s who of golfing legends. The late, great Seve Ballesteros, is a two-time champion having won back-to-back titles in 1983 and 1984, along with Ernie Els (1999, 2000 and 2002), Bernhard Langer (1985 and 1991), Colin Montgomerie (1996), Sir Nick Faldo (1994), Nick Price (1993, 1997 and 1998) and Ian Woosnam (1987).\nMore recently, Sweden\u2019s Alex Noren captured his first title in South Africa in 2016, along with 2016 Masters Champion Danny Willett in 2015, and European Ryder Cup Captain Thomas Bj\u00f8rn in 2014.\nTickets for the Nedbank Golf Challenge hosted by Gary Player will be on sale soon with further information here.\n2 GARCIA, Sergio ESP 18 -12\n4 FISHER, Ross ENG 18 -8\nT5 LI, Haotong CHN 18 -7\nT5 WALLACE, Matt ENG 18 -7",

        "raw_content": "Home Features Opinion FOMO Factor: In Hoff we trust\nFOMO Factor: In Hoff we trust\nby Ava Johnson\nAvocado Johnson goes to that thing you're curious about to answer the question: Are you missing out? This time: David Hasselhoff's \"30 Years Looking for Freedom\" concert.\nAs soon as I walked through the door of the Friedrichstadt-Palast, I heard it. A thunderous chant emanated from the concert hall, the sound of thousands of Germans raising their voices as one.\n\u201cNa na na. Na na na na. Hey, hey, hey. Hasselhoff!\u201d\nWhen I told my German millennial friends I was seeing David Hasselhoff in concert, they agreed their country still appreciated the Baywatch star, but only ironically. They were wrong. Nothing could have prepared me for the raw, full-hearted devotion demonstrated by what I now know is called the Hoff Army.\nI\u2019d expected housewives, and they were there. But so were entire families waving blow-up Baywatch rafts, pierced teen Goth girls, older guys with ZZ-Top beards and vests emblazoned with metal patches. And then there were the many, many groups of youngish German bros treating the concert like a football match. They were the ones leading the chanting, occupying entire rows in matching \u201cDon\u2019t Hassel the Hoff\u201d shirts, bellowing the lyrics to \u201cFlying on the Wings of Tenderness\u201d with open arms and whipping off their shirts when particularly overcome. The Friedrichstadt-Palast\u2019s decision not to serve alcohol during this show suddenly made a whole lot of sense.\nThe Hoff Army.\nIt would be one thing if the appreciation was only one-sided, but it wasn\u2019t. Hasselhoff enjoys a symbiotic relationship with his German audience in which he returns their love with such generosity that they end up loving him even more. The result is a kind of love ouroboros that eventually got so intense that a few audience members felt compelled to run onto the Friedrichstadt-Palast\u2019s low stage to embrace their hero. Security chased them off, but the Hoff didn\u2019t look all that hassled.\nThe show lasted three hours, including one intermission, five quick-changes and six interstitial \u201cHey, hey, hey, Hasselhoff!\u201d chants. (Seriously, these bros did not let up.)\nThe actual music tilted toward straight-up Schlager, another reason why Hasselhoff\u2019s so big here. By now he obviously knows what sells, from a red-jacketed performance of the Baywatch theme to \"Hooked on a Feeling\" to a cover of German-beloved evergreen \u201cCountry Roads\u201d that had the whole Palast on their feet. \u201cIt\u2019s a Real Good Feeling\u201d, from the 2011 \u201ccomeback\u201d album, went over huge, as did the tongue-in-cheek \u201cTrue Survivor\u201d from 2015\u2019s crowdfunded action homage Kung Fury.\nBy the encore, everyone knew what was coming. Video footage of the Berlin Wall began playing on the screens behind the stage, the audience held their breath... and Hasselhoff launched into the German-language version of Bowie\u2019s \u201cHeroes\u201d.\nThis confused the audience, who gave the song an uncharacteristically subdued response. (A friend later reminded me that Bowie, unlike certain TV personalities, was \"never all that big here\".) But then, a low rumble on the synths. A piano-key scarf. A light-up jacket. And there it was: \u201cLooking For Freedom\u201d. Hasselhoff belted the chorus, nearly drowned out by the ecstatic crowd as video screens displayed him wearing that exact same outfit on New Year\u2019s Eve, 1989, singing from a crane overlooking a crumbling Wall \u2013 the day Berliners knew that, now and forever, the Hoff was on their side.\nThere was no second encore. How could there be? There was only Hasselhoff beaming beneath a shower of confetti, taking a bow with his band as he proclaimed, \u201cIch liebe euch alle!\u201d And at that moment, I, too, couldn\u2019t help but love him back.\nFOMO Factor (How much should you regret missing out on this? 0 = sigh of relief; 5 = slap yourself in the face): 3. Five for the experience; points docked for the \u20ac50-plus ticket price. The Hoff will be back at the Friedrichstadt-Palast on Monday, April 30.\nFOMO Factor Music david hasselhoff\nkzs 40 days ago",

        "raw_content": "Fretboard surfing...\nJoe Satriani - The Royal Concert Hall, Glasgow, June 9th 2013\nThis was the first time I\u2019d caught Joe Satriani live, but with good reason.\nWhile acknowledging and appreciating the extraordinary talents of Satriani and others like him in the fusionistic world of instrumental rock guitar, I\u2019ve never been a major fan.\nEach album has produced some superb sonics and outstanding melodic moments but they have never fully rocked my Muirsical world.\nWhen it comes to be being captivated by complex instrumental guitar work I\u2019m more Pat Metheny than Joe Satriani; great guitar players both, but dramatically different styles and performing in different musical arenas.\n2013 however was a different story.\nJoe Satriani\u2019s latest album Unstoppable Momentum is his best to date in terms of melodic sculptures created and the musician\u2019s employed to put Satriani\u2019s musical visions in to full band form.\nOn the album Joe Satriani is accompanied by Mike Keneally (who has recorded and performed with Satriani before) on keyboards, drummer Vinnie Colaiuta and bassist Chris Chaney.\nThat\u2019s one of the best quartets Joe Satriani has ever put together but the 2013 touring four-piece could well become their equal.\nMike Keneally was again part of the live Satriani ensemble, on keyboards and guitars, but this time around the rhythm section was bass player Bryan Beller (who also plays in the Mike Keneally Band) and Marco Minnemann, a drummer (and multi-instrumentalist) who needs very little introduction.\nAnd it was Minnemann who introduced himself to the Royal Concert Hall crowd first, kicking in with what was part drum-sound-check, part mini-solo and the opening to the funk \u2018n\u2019 jam of \u2018Cool #9.\u2019\nBy the time the band hit the fast fusion of \u2018Devil\u2019s Slide\u2019 and the pulsating \u2018Flying in a Blue Dream\u2019 the four-piece were in full stride \u2013 Joe Satriani\u2019s unmistakeable six-string shapes and colours; the rock-solid drum work of Marco Minnemann; Mike Keneally\u2019s keyboard textures, rhythm work and his own solo lines; Bryan Beller anchoring the musical grooves and melodies with a beefy low-end and some funky melody lines of his own.\nThe highlight, other than the musicianship, was the fact that ten of the eleven tracks from Unstoppable Momentum were featured in the core set, with some Satch classics and must-play tunes mixed in for musical balance.\nThe Momentum tracks, interspersed with back catalogue staples, gave great light and shade to the set.\nHighlights from the new album included the aptly named \u2018Three Sheets to the Wind,\u2019 the short but poignant \u2018I\u2019ll Put a Stone on Your Cairn,\u2019 the straight ahead but infectious groove of \u2018A Door into Summer\u2019 and the outstanding title track, incorporating Satch-ified melodic rock lines over an off-beat rhythm.\nBest back catalogue moments came via \u2018The Crush of Love\u2019 from the 1988 Dreaming #11 EP, the obligatory and self-explanatory \u2018Satch Boogie\u2019 and the fusion rock and roll of \u2018Surfing With the Alien.\u2019\nThere were still times when the fretboard frenetics became too intense and while it\u2019s a Satch trait and sonic trademark to hold or pitch-bend the top note on the whammy bar, I don\u2019t need to hear it four or five times on the same solo run. Less can be more, boys.\nBut that\u2019s personal preference, although it is a very fine line between superbly expressive rock guitar soloing and self-indulgent six-string masturbation.\nBut for the most part Joe Satriani was in the zone and displayed the former trait \u2013 and he wasn\u2019t the only one.\nMike Keneally got to show his six-string chops and exchanged licks with Satriani, going toe-to-toe (more accurately finger-to-finger) with the maestro on a number of songs \u2013 something the knowledgeable and appreciative Glasgow crowd recognised by giving Keneally the biggest ovations of the night outside of the cheers for Satriani himself.\nThe three song encore \u2013 the mandatory \u2018Crowd Chant,\u2019 the feel-good \u2018Summer Song\u2019 and the emotive ballad \u2018Rubina\u2019 \u2013 sent the Glasgow crowd home happy, but it\u2019s a testament to this particular quartet\u2019s talents that they were as good as they were on the night\u2026\nPost-show Mike Keneally and Bryan Beller confirmed that, while the arrangements are now settling in and there is more space in the music than the rigidity of the first few tour dates, they are still getting familiar with each other on-stage and the nuances of the songs.\nBryan Beller was also unfamiliar with the material before tour rehearsals and Mike Keneally is playing guitar in a different tuning and tone than he is used to (effectively playing keyboards and guitar in different keys, sometimes in quick back and forths between the two instruments).\nWith that knowledge, you start to gain a deeper appreciation for how solid this band already is and just how good they will become.\nIf you haven\u2019t seen Joe Satriani before or haven\u2019t caught this particular tour, catch them if you can.\nBecause they are well on their way to building up an Unstoppable Momentum.",

It includes 59 villages in 12 townships in Zhuji City, Shengzhou City and Shaoxing County. The total area is 402Km2 . There are around 1.05\u00d7105 ancient Chinese Torreya trees. Among them, 7.2\u00d7104 are more than 100 years old, and thousands of them are more than 1000 years old. A spectacular landscape is formed by the ancient Chinese Torreya trees, traditional villages, and abundant streams, and mountains. Chinese Torreya (Torreya grandis cv. Merrillii) is a quality grafting plant resulting, over time, from careful artificial selection. Its main properties and economic values are different from other types of Torreya grandis and it can be used for nuts, medicine, logs, oil, ornaments, and environmental protection purposes. The Kuaiji mountain is the origin place of Chinese Torreya with the most well preserved ancient Torreya community, and more than 80% Chinese Torreya production is from this area. The Kuaijishan Ancient Chinese Torreya Community has over 2000 years of history. This Kuaijishan ancient community developed the application of grafting techniques in ancient China, which makes it a rare \"living fossil\" of ancient grafting and artificial selection techniques. The age of the oldest existing Chinese Torreya tree, already tested by experiments, is 1431 years, which might be the oldest living artificial grafted specimen in China. In addition, the Kuaijishan Ancient Chinese Torreya Community is a harmonious system that was created by the people of Shaoxing a long time ago that prevents soil erosion while providing diverse \u2018high value\u2019 economic products from the trees. In all, the Kuaijishan Ancient Chinese Torreya Community not only has historical, artistic, scientific, ecological and economical value, but also reflects a highly sustainable mode of human survival through the careful transformation and utilization of natural resources; the harmonious coexistence of humans with nature. It is a unique GIAHS system in the world. Nevertheless, the Kuaijishan Ancient Chinese Torreya Community is facing severe threats and challenges due to natural aging, natural disasters, land use competition, population aging, and the lack of agriculture labor resources. It is urgent to establish the social, economic and ecological values of this important system and protect them in dynamic ways.\n\u0645\u0646\u0638\u0645\u0627\u062a \u0623\u062e\u0631\u0649: Globally Important Agricultural Heritage Systems (GIAHS),\n\u0627\u0644\u0628\u0644\u062f/\u0627\u0644\u0628\u0644\u062f\u0627\u0646: China\n\u0627\u0644\u062a\u063a\u0637\u064a\u0629 \u0627\u0644\u062c\u063a\u0631\u0627\u0641\u064a\u0629: \u0622\u0633\u064a\u0627 \u0648\u0627\u0644\u0645\u062d\u064a\u0637 \u0627\u0644\u0647\u0627\u062f\u064a\n\u0627\u0644\u0646\u0648\u0639: \u062f\u0631\u0627\u0633\u0629 \u062d\u0627\u0644\u0629\n\u0627\u0644\u0646\u0635 \u0627\u0644\u0643\u0627\u0645\u0644 \u0645\u062a\u0627\u062d \u0639\u0644\u0649: http://www.fao.org/fileadmin/templates/giahs_assets/Sites_annexes/Kuaijishan_Ancient_Chinese___Torreya_Community-China.pdf\n10th China Community Supported Agriculture Conference\nGlobally Important Agricultural Heritage Systems (GIAHS).

        "raw_content": "WFTU Statement on the International Women's day, March 8th, 2017\nFight Back News Service is circulating the following statement from the World Federation of Trade Unions.\nUnder the slogan: \u201cWORKING WOMEN ALWAYS AT THE FRONT of social struggles and of the WFTU life and action\u201d the World Federation of Trade Unions honors, for one more year, the anniversary of March 8th 2017, 160 years after the uprising of women workers in New York, demanding better working conditions, equality and life with rights.\nWe are extending our warmest greetings to all women trade unionists continuing the struggle of these pioneer women workers, within the ranks of the class oriented trade union movement and of WFTU, and we congratulate them on their courage and militant action. We are greeting the working women all over the world, the women of poor popular strata, toiling every day to survive and support their families. We are greeting the women migrants and refugees who left their countries because of the imperialist wars.\nSince its foundation until today, the WFTU has always been on the side of working women through various activities and initiatives. It has always highlighted the specific problems that women face, as a social group that is more affected by the capitalist system aggression, exploitation, imperialist interventions. Such problems are the lack of necessary social support for maternity, lower wages, more flexible forms of employment, labor market discriminations and the lack of free time that often hinders women\u2019s participation in trade union activities. Moreover, working women often fall victims to employers\u2019 violence and racist pressures. Women migrants and refugees suffer various pressures and discriminations taking place against them.\nThe situation and position of working women have been even more aggravated within the economic recession and crisis that workers experience in recent years almost all over the world. Most of the times, working women suffer more intensely by unemployment, wage cuts and violation of their fundamental rights.\nOn the occasion of the International Women\u2019s Day we once again reaffirm our stable solidarity with the women of Palestine, of Syria, of Iraq, of Afghanistan and of the entire Arab world, wherever they suffer from the U.S.A. and Israeli interventions.\nAs class oriented trade union movement, let\u2019s take initiatives to increase the number and percentage of women within the administrations of trade unions at all levels. With boldness and specific plan let\u2019s trust the women trade unionists. Women\u2019s and working youth\u2019s participation will give new impetus to the WFTU and to the militant trade unions.\nWe call on all the WFTU affiliated members and friends to honor the International Working Women\u2019s day through diverse activities and events, which will demonstrate the need for greater defense of working women\u2019s rights and more effective claiming of measures improving their working and living conditions.",

        "raw_content": "Control Journal, Step 12: Address Book\nThe next section we are going to build in our Control Journal is our address book. This is not something to obsess about; it will take months to get it complete. The first thing to do is add the ABC dividers and put a sheet of paper between each alphabet letter. This does not have to be a specially formatted sheet with a line for name, address, phone number, cell phone, e-mail address, who the person is, etc. Just list the criteria you want to have for each person across the top of the page so you don\u2019t forget it.\nDon\u2019t forget to list under someone\u2019s name who they are to you. This is very important, because we forget why we put someone in your address book. An example is the name of a repairperson; if you don\u2019t put \u201cappliance repairman\u201d in the entry, you will look at it one day and say, \u201cWho is this person?\u201d You can also add personal information for acquaintances, such as the names of their children and spouse. After you make an entry, just draw a line under it. This does not have to be fancy, just understandable. Use a pencil, and be sure to print the names clearly. As you add names and addresses, you may want to cross reference their name with who they are by putting the name under \u201cRepairman\u201d with the expertise. You don\u2019t have to put all the information, just the name. You have already entered it once. This will save you from having to look through the whole address book. It may not be a problem with only a few names and addresses, but eventually you will have several entries in your address book.\nEven if you have a digital address book, this is a hard copy that can be accessed easily. Your family will love having all the names and addresses in one spot instead of on little slips of paper stuffed in the drawer by the telephone. I do not expect you to spend all day entering your addresses and phone numbers; set a timer for 15 minutes and get it ready to make the entries. Then from time to time on your desk day (which you planned for in Step 11), you can enter the information. As you run across the tiny pieces of paper with addresses you want to keep, put them in your control journal. This does not mean get sidetracked from your task at hand of decluttering or whatever you are doing at the time; simply set them aside on your desk to add the next time you work on your control journal. If you have to write down an address, do it in the address book right then instead of on any ol\u2019 piece of scrap paper.\nThis address book is going to be such a blessing when you need to send greeting cards, invitations, or calling community meetings. It will also help to reduce the chaos and stress in your life. Having everything in one place and keeping it handy will save many hours of searching for a name and address on that torn piece of paper that you know you put in a SAFE place.\nOnce you have filled out your address book, you\u2019re ready for step thirteen!",

        "raw_content": "It\u2019s not what you know, it\u2019s WHO you know. How many times have you heard this phrase? Despite what you think, it\u2019s true. No matter if you are running your own business, work in a corporate office or for a small company, your success depends on who you know.\nNetworking opportunities are growing rapidly, and it is high time you join in and start getting out there sharing your mission with the world and seeing who you can help.\nThese are 6 reasons why networking is an important part of business social life and should be included in your calendar.\nToday, when we all are connected wirelessly through the internet, we may never see people we work with every day (vendors, suppliers, clients). It is very important to get out there and meet face to face with as many people as possible. It is guaranteed that in the time of need they will think of you first because they know you personally. It brings your connection to the next level.\nOther types of events bring under one roof people of the trade, business owners or another group united by a big idea. If you find time to show up, that means you care about the cause. More points to your career karma.\nIf you are dreading the idea of talking to strangers, realize that networking is set up differently. The atmosphere is chill and relaxing. Events are usually taking place after work and everyone is dropping off the official look, loosening up the ties and enjoying themselves in the great group of like-minded people. Isn\u2019t that the most productive way to spend an evening?\nYes, you\u2019ve read that right. It is typical to think that networking is about finding people that can help you make more money. Actually, it is quite the opposite. It is about finding who YOU can help (even more points to karma). Think of it as a circle of life. You help someone, and you will get help (customers, orders, job) from a source you have not even expected. By helping someone you get in to the network of people they know, so by default your own circle grows tremendously.\nRefresh your ideas.\nWhen you are constantly surrounded by same old colleagues and boil in the same pot day in and day out, your ideas get stagnant. The most important networking skill comes to the rescue here. Listening.\nListen to what others have to say. Ask questions about things in the industry that you are concern about; say, a new law that may influence the way your business is running, or a new rule that requires some adjustments. You may get useful insights you have not thought of before. There may be a solution, but you have not heard of it. Now a workplace (and a networking floor) becomes more and more diverse with people from other countries and of various backgrounds. That helps to get a different perspective on an issue.\nRefresh your options.\nNot only ideas get stagnant after working at the same place or on the same project. Your own career growth options expand considerably when you communicate with the right people. It may lead to an array of opportunities from getting assigned a new project to getting a new job. You must be on your best game when attending the events. You never know who may be looking. Everything matters from what you wear to what you say and do. The main rules of thumb require business casual attire (unless otherwise specified in the event description), avoiding topics like politics or religion, reasonable limit on alcohol and food.\nBy attending networking events you make yourself and your company visible. The more people you meet the more people will find out about something cool that you do. Settle with the idea that networking is not a one-time thing (unfortunately or fortunately). It must be done regularly and consistently. It will take time before you really see the results. On the bright side, keep in mind that networking never really stops. You meet someone and tell them your compelling story. Once they leave the event floor, they may go and tell someone about you. You pretty much get access to their network too. Very soon you will realize that you connect people in your network. At the same time someone is doing it for you. Win-win!\nGrow your self-esteem.\nThe best way to learn networking is to network. Sorry, no magic pill here. By doing it more often you will become better at it. The good thing is you realize that you are surrounded by people with similar goals in a comfortable setting and no one will react weird about you asking questions. A few tips here: listen more than you talk, but always have an interesting story to share. It can be a trade joke, an early-in-a-career incident or something along those lines that will help loosen up the tension, make people laugh and help them learn a thing or two about you as a person and a professional. We all have a story to share and by hearing others you will realize that you are a relevant player in the industry and bring value to the table (or to the bar).\nSome people think that to network you have to join organizations like Business Network International BNI, pay thousands of dollars in membership and travel to another city to attend an event. Despite being well-known, this may not be the best way to start meeting people and getting connections. Many great options are right in your backyard. Check with the Department of Commerce in your city, or alumni club in your university as well as trade communities that arrange free or low cost gatherings in local restaurants and other venues. Look up \u201cnetworking near me\u201d online. You will be surprised how many easy ways to join the trend are there.\nNow, when you have your reasons and all the means it takes to be successful at networking, just go out there and do it.\nCredit: Anna Aguilar",

Highlands junior Carl Schoellman (35) prepares to hand the ball off to senior running back Grant Murray while offensive lineman Kyle Finfrock (72) moves in for the block. Highlands travels to Louisville Doss to start the Class 5A playoffs Friday at 7:30 p.m.\nWhile all the hype is about a potential rematch with arch-rival Covington Catholic in second round of the playoffs, the visitors know that will not happen without a victory on the road in the Class 5A playoffs on Friday.\nThe opponent for the Highlands Bluebirds football team (3-7 overall) is one the Bluebirds have never faced in the proud 102-year history of the program. That is the second seed out of District 4 in the Louisville Doss Dragons (5-5) at 7:30 p.m.\nHighlands last opened the playoffs on the road in 1995 at Lawrence County. The Bluebirds won four straight games on their way to a state runner-up finish to Bowling Green in Class 3A that year.\n\"Not only are we playing a game, we're playing a playoff game,\" said Brian Weinrich, Highlands Head Coach. \"If you win, you get to play again. If you don't win, you're done. Whether we're playing here, there or somewhere else, it's doesn't matter. That has no bearing on anything. They'd better be able to bring their own intensity and see the finality in it.\"\nDoss has outscored the opposition, 287-202 for an average of about 29-20. The Dragons finished second in District 4 with a 4-1 record but went just 1-4 in non-district play. Doss never left Jefferson County for any of its 10 regular season games. The Dragons played just one team outside the Commonwealth of Kentucky's most populated county in South Oldham at home on Aug. 26. Doss played a good game against District 3 champion South Oldham (9-1) in a 34-26 defeat in the battle of the Dragons.\nThe Bluebirds will take their vaunted Spread Offense to Hayward Schartzer Stadium. Highlands has rushed for 1,527 yards this year and thrown for 2,409 averaging about 153 yards rushing and 241 passing per game.\n\"We have to get better at executing plays,\" Weinrich said. \"You have to get better at getting on and off the field. We have to get better at lining up quicker. We have to get better at running more plays in a game. We've done a better job executing lately. At this time of the year, you can't have any costly mistakes that gives the other team the ball. Every play has to be executed perfectly at this time of the year.\"\nHighlands continues to find ways to move the ball. The Bluebirds used balance to beat Boone County, 48-28 on Friday to conclude the regular season. Senior quarterback Brady Gosney has completed 182-of-300 passes for 2,398 yards, 26 touchdowns and 13 interceptions.\nHighlands senior running back Grant Murray had a monster game against Boone County rushing for 175 yards on 19 carries and two touchdowns and had a 27-yard touchdown reception. Murray has rushed for a team-high 842 yards on 147 carries and eight touchdowns for an average of about 5.7 yards per carry.\nThe Highlands quarterbacks have completed passes to 13 different wide receivers with seven hauling in 12 or more on the season. Junior Nick Veneman is 102 yards away from 1,000 yards on the season with a team-high 42 catches for 898 yards and 11 touchdowns. Veneman has been brutal on opposing secondaries downfield in 1-on-1 coverage. Junior Braden Posey is next for the Bluebirds with 37 catches for 387 yards and four touchdowns and senior Trent Buchert has 24 catches for 242 yards and three touchdowns.\n\"We just try to stick to what we know best and hopefully, every play we can move guys in front of us,\" said Kyle Finfrock, Highlands senior offensive lineman. \"The game is basically won in the trenches. We've been undersized basically every game. We just have to play our hearts out.\"\nThe Doss defense has allowed 1,304 yards rushing and 773 passing on the season for averages of about 130 rushing and 77 passing per game. The Dragons run a variety of defensive formations mostly out of the 40 front.\n\"This is a young group of kids that play hard and want to get better each day,\" said Phillip Hawkins, Doss Head Coach. \"Our (defensive backs) have been able to cover in Man (defense) most of the year which frees up (linebackers). We have also been able to pressure the quarterback with moderate success. Our kids will continue to play with intensity and speed.\"\nSenior defensive back Steven Mack leads Doss with 72 tackles on the season and has the team's lone fumble recovery. The Dragons have recorded just six turnovers on the season with five interceptions. Sophomore defensive back Michael Richardson has four picks and junior defensive back Dquarius Nolan has the other one.\nThe 3-4 Bluebird defense has shown some improvement in recent weeks. But Highlands still struggled some against a bigger Boone County offensive line. Teams have outscored Highlands, 411-335 for an average of about 41-34. Opponents have rushed for 2,872 yards and passed for 1,722 yards per game for an average of about 287 rushing and 172 passing.\nThe Bluebirds will again face a balanced Spread attack that opponents have thrown at them all season. The Doss offensive line average almost 6-feet-3-inches and 268 pounds led by junior Charles Allen.\n\"They do a great job getting their play-makers the ball in space,\" said Shelby Jones, Highlands Defensive Coordinator. \"Whenever you get your play-makers the ball in space, you give yourself a chance to score. (Allen) is one of the best offensive linemen we've faced. It's going to be a tall task. When you have guys who can get up the field quickly, it helps.\"\nDoss has rushed for 1,797 yards this year and passed for 1,743 averaging about 180 rushing and 174 passing per game. Senior running back Hamilton Wilson has 1,204 yards rushing on 164 carries and 12 touchdowns for an average of about 7.3 yards per carry.\nJunior quarterback Deon Pumphry has guided the Doss offense well this year completing 96-of-173 passes for 1,469 yards, 15 touchdowns and eight interceptions. Pumphry's top two targets have been senior Christian McClain with 47 catches for 828 yards and seven touchdowns and junior Traynor Terez with 30 receptions for 384 yards and six touchdowns.\n\"One mistake could mess up the entire play,\" said Zach Sisson, Highlands senior defensive lineman. \"We try to practice hard and get better every day to get ready for the games on Friday.\"\nBut the Highlands defense has produced turnovers in the two recent games. The Bluebirds recovered two fumbles early and built a 21-0 lead against Boone County as a result.\n\"You have to trust what you're doing, play fast, come downhill and just get after it,\" Jones said. \"That's the only thing you can do. If we create a wall, I think we'll be in good shape. Not giving up the big play will be the key this week. We still need to be physical. I think we did a good job last week.\"\nHighlands has recovered 17 fumbles on the year and picked off three passes. Senior linebacker Dalton Cornett leads the way with seven fumble recoveries with senior defensive backs Bradley Greene, Kyle Rust and Sam Taylor recording one interception each.\nHighlands hopes recent playoff success plays well into its favor. The Bluebirds own the state's longest streak of region championships with nine dating back to 2006 when they lost 25-15 to Covington Catholic in the second round of the Class 3A playoffs. They've won\nDoss drove all the way to the Class 5A, Region 2 title game in 2008 before losing 42-28 to John Hardin. The Dragons have gone to the second round several times since with the latest one coming two years ago, but no further.\nHighlands has won 24 straight first-round playoff games. The last loss this early in the playoffs for the Bluebirds came in a 20-14 loss to Montgomery County in 1991.\nLabels: Highlands bluebirds football, Louisville Doss Dragons",

        "raw_content": "When I was diagnosed, now almost two years ago, I had an initial sense of relief of knowing that I\u2019m not insane and that there was a name for what I\u2019ve always experienced. But I was still coming down from a pretty nasty high that had manifested itself in the return of my PTSD symptoms with a vengeance. Yet that relief was very short-lived. It quickly turned to guilt, shame, and fear. I had already gone through my first round of Med Roulette (I\u2019ll get to this in a second) in about ten years, and it ended in a hospital stay. I was very skeptical of going at medication again.\nI had been diagnosed with schizophrenia in late 2005, and was put on Effexor. This was my first go at the \u201cgame\u201d of Med Roulette, and it didn\u2019t go so well. Med Roulette is a euphemism for this sort-of experiment that is inherent of pretty much all psych meds.. No two people respond exactly in the same way to the same medication because everyone has their own special dose of chemical brain farts. In other words, the regimen that works for me may not, and probably will not, work for someone else with the same diagnosis. Now, the \u201croulette\u201d part is that there\u2019s truly no way to figure out what will and will not work besides trial and error, and the side effects and adverse reactions that come with that.\nIn other words, medication is a loaded gun that is loaded and ready to shoot.\nMy first go at this\u2026 lovely\u2026 game, in 2005, ended in error. In fact, it was so bad an error, that I was manic and psychotic out of my skull for the better part of a year. In further fact, I don\u2019t remember half of my first year of music school, because mania historically equals blackout for me. I was flying so high that I thought I was the world\u2019s gift to music\u2026 Now, I\u2019m a mediocre musician, and that\u2019s cool, but my illness (and the side effects of undiagnosed bipolar while on a medication not recommended for bipolar because it can induce mania) made me believe that I was. I must\u2019ve believed that I was superhuman and indestructible\u2026 and I don\u2019t remember a damn second of that. In reality, this symptom may as well had saved my life. I felt so great, that I just stopped taking my medication and going to appointments\u2026 And then things got back to \u201cnormal\u201d after I must\u2019ve gone through withdrawal and all that fun stuff. I was so afraid of treatment after this scare that I simply refused to get help again.\nBut that was a foolish mistake, and my illness crept back up on me over the years. I thought I\u2019d gotten pretty good at hiding my symptoms \u2014 forcing myself out of bed during lows, and looking forward to the insanity of highs. I flat-out denied that I wasn\u2019t OK, and thought my severe and long bouts of ups and downs were \u201cnormal\u201d. I also began self-medicating again with drugs and alcohol, but I didn\u2019t know it at the time. I\u2019d drink heavily to control mania, and do a lot of drugs to come up from depression. It got to the point where I simply couldn\u2019t hide it anymore. I stopped being a \u201cfunctioning\u201d bipolar.\nSo, at the coaxing of someone dear to me, I got help. I was terrified of it all, especially medication. This second \u201cfirst\u201d round also ended badly. I was put on medication for the sole purpose of ruling out bipolar disorder. But guess what? Hello mania! I was flying so high that I was hospitalized twice in three months. See, with Med Roulette, no one ever really wins. And I was totally losing the game for a long time. I became terrified of it, and refused to \u201cplay\u201d for a few months, but I ended up back in the hospital for Round 3 in September 2015. I checked myself in because I was starting to have psychotic symptoms, and that never ends well.\nSince then, I\u2019ve been compliant and have played the game every few months, and that is what I need right now. Medication is an important part of managing my mental illness, but it\u2019s truly trial and error. I\u2019m not quite in remission yet, but getting there. My latest round seems to have done wonders for a long bout of depression. Mania hasn\u2019t crept in for a few months, and I hope it doesn\u2019t. I use to look forward to the \u201crelief\u201d of mania, but it\u2019s really not something to be too pleased about. I\u2019m a dangerous and reckless manic.\nMy bipolar diagnosis means hope to me. It means that I don\u2019t have to fight it by myself, and that I have resources to help manage this thing that\u2019s a part of my brain. It means that I don\u2019t have to feel like I\u2019m insane, because there\u2019s a name for my patterns, and that I\u2019m not alone. I guess that\u2019s the brightest part of having a lifelong brain illness that I\u2019ll probably die with\u2026 that I no longer have to life afraid or ashamed. I\u2019ve grown to learn that it\u2019s pointless to be ashamed of who I am.. there\u2019s nothing inherently wrong with being a transgender man, or being someone with an illness. Brains are just like any other organ in our bodies \u2014 sometimes, they too get sick. We don\u2019t, as a society, shame people with most other illnesses\u2026 I don\u2019t see the point in shaming or stigmatizing someone who\u2019s brain just needs a little help from a trained professional, just like any other illness affecting any other organ.\nI didn\u2019t choose to have this illness\u2026 I don\u2019t think anyone ever chooses to have any illness\u2026 I have chosen to get help for it in order to manage it in the best way possible.\nI\u2019m also choosing to speak out and advocate for myself because dialogue is the only way to alleviate, and hopefully end, stigma. I speak out because it matters.\nWith this blog, I hope to help out other people, especially transgender people, who are living with mental illness. Sometimes, knowing that I\u2019m not alone in this fight is all I need to sleep. If I can be that one bit of hope for someone else, then speaking out is worth it.\nThis entry was posted in 31 days of bipolar, my bipolar life.",

        "raw_content": "Homily for November 1st & 2nd, 2013: All Saints and All Souls\nA Triduum for the Three Parts of the Church\nAll Hallows Eve, All Saints Day, and All Souls Day make a sort of autumn Triduum. As the dying leaves fall to earth, as the daylight fades, as the wind turns colder, the Church helps her children make sense of the inevitable and confusing fact of death. Each of us will grow older, grow feebler, and die, what the poet Homer 3000 years ago called \u201chateful old age\u201d and \u201cmiserable death.\u201d In the last words of Ecclesiastes: \u201cthe silver cord is snapped, the golden bowl is broken, the pitcher is shattered at the spring, the pulley is broken at the well, the dust returns to the earth as it once was, and the life breath returns to God who gave it.\u201d The autumn triduum of October 31, November 1, and November 2 point to a truth deeper than death: the life breath will return to God, who gave it. \u201cFor in him,\u201d Jesus declared, \u201call things are alive.\u201d The saints are those who live and die in Him.\nThose of us who still live on this side of the grave must realize that we are only the tip of the iceberg. The Church consists of three parts, of which we are only the smallest. We make up the Church Militant, those in daily combat against the destructive powers of the world, the flesh, and the devil. But above us, below us, and all around us a great multitude fills the air, invisible to us, but more real than anything on earth. The saints in heaven (the Church Triumphant), and the holy souls in purgatory (the Church Suffering), have entered into real life, and we are shadows compared to them. We are the ghosts; they are the living--substantially alive in Christ Jesus. \u201cAfter this,\u201d St. John writes in our first reading, \u201cI saw a great multitude, which no one could count, from every nation, race, people, and tongue.\u201d We believe in the other two worlds, and we depend on the strength of their intercession, even as we intercede for the souls in purgatory.\nDestined for Purity\nAnd yet earthly death saddens and frightens us. Death is dirty and putrid and loathsome. We avoid it like the plague and scrub our hands after touching a corpse. But, in fact, the carnal impurity of death is only a consequence and manifestation of spiritual impurity. Before sin, there was no death, and after sin, there will be no death.\n\u201cWho are these\u201d asks St. John, \u201cwearing white?\u201d The angel replies: \u201cThese are the ones who have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.\u201d We hope that one day we will be so washed, that the sadness of sin will never again touch us. \u201cEveryone who has this hope based on Him,\u201d writes St. Paul in the Epistle, \u201cmakes himself pure, as He is pure.\u201d \u201cWe are God\u2019s children now,\u201d he continues. \u201cWhat we shall be has not yet been revealed.\u201d Jesus directs us to this purity in the eight beatitudes: poverty of spirit, meekness, thirst for righteousness, and cleanness of heart. Only the pure of heart can see God, and can see him in other people. The pornography epidemic, for example, ruins human relationships, especially marriages, because one addicted to pornography can no longer see God or his image in other people. Holiness is first and foremost purity of heart, so as to see God in every person and in every circumstance. One day, in heaven, we will be absolutely pure, absolutely holy, absolutely content.\nSaved in and for Community\nGod reveals himself in the people around us, and God saves us with the people around us. We are the Church Militant, but we are saved with and through the Church Suffering and the Church Triumphant. We are One Church, and no one is saved in isolation. \u201cThere is no isolation in heaven,\u201d writes Pope Benedict, and the Communion of Saints begins on earth, to be perfected in heaven. St. John\u2019s vision of heaven in the Apocalypse is \u201ca great multitude,\u201d crying out with one voice: \u201cblessing, and glory, and wisdom, and thanksgiving, and honor, and power, and might, be to our God forever and ever.\u201d \u201cWe are God\u2019s children,\u201d writes St. Paul, all members of his family. We have a Father in heaven, and we have a Mother in heaven. As we think on the fact that we all must undergo our own death alone, and the hope that God will sweep us up into the glorious multitude of saints, we put ourselves into our Holy Mother\u2019s arms. She will lead us over the waters of earthly death and bring us at last to her Son and his kingdom, where we will live with the Father, the Son, and Holy Spirit, and all of those who have washed their robes in the blood of the Lamb, forever and ever. Amen.",

        "raw_content": "No Two Alike: Karl Blossfeldt, Francis Brugui\u00e8re, Thomas Ruff\nCurated by Ulrike Meyer Stump\nEssay on Ruff by Kevin Moore\nNo Two Alike: Karl Blossfeldt, Francis Brugui\u00e8re, Thomas Ruff restages the 1929 exhibition of plant photographs by the German sculptor Karl Blossfeldt (1865\u20141932) and photographs of cut-paper abstractions and multiple exposures by the American photographer, then living in London, Francis Brugui\u00e8re (1879\u20141945). The exhibition, held at the Warren Gallery in London, celebrated the launch of their two books Art Forms in Nature and Beyond This Point. A surprising pair, Blossfeldt and Brugui\u00e8re intrigued critics as being \u201cquite different from the usual run of photographic shows.\u201d No Two Alike reunites these two important modernist photographers for the first time since the legendary exhibition and juxtaposes their work with the Photograms and Negatives series by the German contemporary artist, Thomas Ruff (b. 1958), whose interest in and reaction to the history of photography has formed the background for many of his series. Ruff appropriates six of Blossfeldt\u2019s plant motifs in his Negatives series. By comparing the work of these three photographers, emphasis is placed on a common interest in the variant, which Walter Benjamin once described as the creative principle behind Blossfeldt\u2019s close-ups of plants. Brugui\u00e8re, too, was working through infinite variations in his photographic abstractions. Like his historic counterparts, Ruff has always worked in series and variants, and in this instance presents variations of themes originally explored by Blossfeldt and Brugui\u00e8re. The encounter of these three artists makes the similarities and subtle differences within their own bodies of work visible, but it also presents each of the three artists\u2019 oeuvre as a variation of the other.\nNo Two Alike: Karl Blossfeldt, Francis Brugui\u00e8re, Thomas Ruff (Verlag f\u00fcr moderne Kunst) is published on the occasion of the FotoFocus Biennial 2018 and the exhibition at the Contemporary Arts Center, Cincinnati.\nem.phg.01, 2013\nneg pro02, 2014\nCourtesy the artist and Galerie R\u00fcdiger Sch\u00f6ttle",

        "raw_content": "Welcome to the Miracle League of Green Bay\u2019s 2018 season. Many of you already know who I am but for those who don\u2019t, let me introduce myself. My name is Shelly Curran and I am the Volunteer Coordinator for our league.\nAs the Volunteer Coordinator, it\u2019s my job to ensure that all volunteers are signed up, have signed a release and have been trained. Volunteers should contact me if they have questions or need help resolving an issue.\nPreseason, as Volunteer Coordinator I pair buddies to players based on information in the data base, initiate contact with Coaches, Assistant Coaches and confirm who will be utilized as the Team Assistant. If no Team Assistant is chosen one can be assigned if and when an interested person registers for the position. Coaches aren\u2019t required to have a Team Assistant.\nThroughout the season it\u2019s my responsibility as the Volunteer Coordinator to work with the Coach to ensure league rules are being followed and to ensure they are kept up to date with important information or events.\nIf someone is violating one of the league rules and the team Coach is unable or unwilling to enforce a league rule, I as the Volunteer Coordinator will step in and attempt to enforce the league rule that is being violated. If I too am unsuccessful, it is then up to the Executive Director, Gary Rogaczewski, to speak to the individual and if necessary, remove the individual from the field. The Executive Director holds the highest authority in the league.\nAs the Volunteer Coordinator I work closely with the Team Assistant to ensure Buddy matches are appropriate and if necessary, I have the ability to make appropriate changes.\nI am responsible for all volunteer records, so any changes need to be coordinated with me. I have access to personal information that Coaches and Team Assistants don\u2019t have access to which could impact the decision. For example: the Team Assistant wants to switch Maddie\u2019s Buddy from Sarah to Sam because Maddie likes to be carried around and Sam is stronger. Unfortunately the Team Assistant has no way of knowing that interacting with males causes Maddie to have nightmares. Had the Volunteer Coordinator been involved in the decision she/he could have looked at Maddie\u2019s file and said no, we need to have a female Buddy for her for personal reasons. It\u2019s not a competition or a power control issue, it\u2019s a privacy and compatibility issue.\nIt\u2019s my responsibility as the Volunteer Coordinator to work with the Team Assistant throughout the season, to ensure they have enough Buddies present at each game and to assist with locating Sub Buddies if necessary. I am always more than happy to step in as a Buddy for any team, when needed.\nUnfortunately technology does not always work and sometimes emails or text messages are missed. When we work together in a buddy system it ensures all bases are covered. Another example from a previous season is, a Buddy called me late in the day, an emergency had arisen and she couldn\u2019t make it. I left a message for the Team Assistant and also arranged for a Backup Buddy just in case. As it turned out the Team Assistant hadn\u2019t received my message and ended up utilizing the Buddy I arranged. Team work!\nBuddies should always attempt to contact their Team Assistant first if they\u2019re going to absent or late. If you\u2019re unsuccessful or unsure if your Team Assistant received your message then you would contact me.\nAs Volunteer Coordinator I am readily available for all Miracle League Volunteers throughout the season, to ensure things operate smoothly and information is relayed in a timely manner. I can be reached by phone or text at 920-713-6562, email scurran2001@gmail.com, and at the ballpark during the games. My goal is for all of our Volunteers to have a successful season, so please don\u2019t be afraid to reach out for any reason. Thank you all for choosing to volunteer for the Miracle League of Green Bay, I look forward to seeing you all very soon!",

        "raw_content": "Ainu: Were They First People of Americas?\nThese tribe members (above) were found in the 1800s in Nevada. Those who photographed them were not sure who these wild folks were.\nObviously, the facial hair is rather odd, as well as the features to be any Native tribe we know of in America.\nThey do, however, have the facial hair, features, and even the \"paper hats\" style head coverings that the Ainu had.\nIs there evidence other people have been in the Americas perhaps before the Amerindian people's arrival?\nPenon woman was found in Mexico and dates back 13,000 years ago. The problem is, she had a long Caucasian face and appears to show no indicators she is from the same region as the future Native Americans. In fact, she is compared with Australian aborigine/Polynesian/South Pacific origins.\nThe mound people, the giants spoken of by the Native People, the coastal indians with Polynesian head shapes, Penon woman, and this obscure tribe in Nevada (above) show definite signs that we have had many other races of man here at various times. Some might have mated in with the arriving Amerindians, but some might have died off by isolation in a time period before the arrival of the \"Native\" people.\nThe bog people found in Florida were also found DNA wise to not match Native Americans and to be likely European. This is intriguing as these people were buried 9000 years ago. Unfortunately, the government's rule that all ancient people are handed over to local Natives for reburial is a tragic loss.\nIn fact, the Bureau of Land Management in Nevada has fought long and hard to hold the Spirit Cave mummies, as they are certain the Paiutes have no claim to the remains, being that there were no Paiutes in that area in the time period the bodies were placed in the cave, as well as the skeletons being obviously not Native American.\nWere Ainu one of many people who found their way to America but didn't survive the long-term or was this tribe from yet another origin like Polynesia? This certainly brings a new look at the \"discovery\" of America and how \"young\" our continent seems.\nHi Sharon - Look at the third photo, supposedly from Nevada - those two are holding monkey heads (or possibly a gorilla head on the left) and their knives/spears are bloody. They've just hunted these animals. Also, there is tropical foliage in the background which is not indigenous to Nevada. The photo may have been FOUND in Nevada, but I doubt very much if it was SHOT in Nevada.\nSharon Day February 29, 2016 at 10:27 AM\nThis photo is from the Emory Strong book \"Stone Age in the Great Basin\" page 187. \"They have good features and most of them have hairy beards\" Photo by John Hiller 1873 Smithsonian Institute.

I pray 2014 has been kind to you so far.\nI took off the month of January to pray about this blog, and I\u2019m glad I did. January wound up being a VERY eventful month for me.\nI started the year off sick. It was just the after effects \u2013 cough, tiredness \u2013 from the flu, but it wasn\u2019t a fun way to start the year.\nThen my grandfather died and I made an impromptu trip to West Virginia. I spent the week before making arrangements, and the week after was spent recovering from the 11 hour drive (one way).\nA week later I made a trip to the ER for severe abdominal pain. I\u2019m not normally a sick person, so it took me by surprise. After several hours, multiple tests, and a shot of morphine for the pain, the doctor discovered that I had gall stones. Since the pain had receded, I went home to rest and then call the doctor a few days later (I went in on a Saturday night and Monday was a holiday). That Wednesday, my gall bladder was removed. I\u2019m fine now, thankfully. Still a little sore if move in just the right way, or lean against something, but nothing really life-altering.\nSo that was my January.\nFebruary started off with a bang, too. One Choice released on the fourth, and I have been busy guest posting all over the internet, and lining up other blogs to visit. Here\u2019s the schedule:\n2/14 \u2013 http://caroletowriss.com/\n2/15 \u2013 http://www.inkfromanearthenvessel.blogspot.com/\n2/17 \u2013 http://marylouwrites.weebly.com/\n2/17 \u2013 www.kickbackandread.com\n2/18 \u2013 http://creative-hodgepodge.blogspot.com/\n2/19 \u2013 www.PotOfManna.wordpress.com\n2/20 \u2013 http://kimberlyrjohnson.com/\n2/20 \u2013 http://www.maryhamiltonbooks.com/blog/\n2/25 \u2013 http://www.authoraubrie.net/\n2/26 \u2013 http://sherrygloagtheheartofromance.blogspot.com/\n2/27 \u2013 http://www.inspyromance.com/blog/\n2/27 \u2013 http://jenniferslatterylivesoutloud.com/\n2/28 \u2013 http://capturingtheidea.blogspot.com/\n3/13 \u2013 www.angeladmeyer.com\n3/26 \u2013 http://www.bridgemanfamily.com/hallee/category/readers-write/\n3/27 \u2013 http://delialatham.wordpress.com/\n4/18 \u2013 http://www.shannonvannatter.com/blog\n4/18 \u2013 www.JamesRCallan.com\n4/24 \u2013 http://lenanelsondooley.blogspot.com\nAs you can see, the next few months are busy, and that\u2019s just the expected stuff. \ud83d\ude42\nSo, if you haven\u2019t read about One Choice on my FB page, or one of the various places I have already posted this month, you can go here: http://gingersolomon.blogspot.com/p/one-choice.html and get all the pertinent information about the book and where to buy it. \ud83d\ude09\nOh, and by the way, for those of you wondering, this blog will remain.\nMy proposed schedule is to do devotions, reviews, and guest posts once per week. I\u2019d love your feedback. What would you like to see here?\nThanks for following me and reading my ramblings.\nI\u2019m back. Did you miss me? \u2014 1 Comment\nSounds good to me.

        "raw_content": "Mitch Winehouse on the torment of Amy\u2019s self-destruction\nWhat must it be like to watch your child\u2019s life spiral into drug-addicted chaos, reported daily by a rapacious press? Mitch Winehouse on the torment of Amy\u2019s self-destruction, its impact on the Winehouse clan, and why he believes she\u2019s finally getting better\nPhoto \u2013 Phil Fisk\nSo, let\u2019s get the great big elephant out of the room straightaway. Is there something a bit iffy about the way Mitch Winehouse appears to be making a career on the back of his daughter\u2019s demons? What career, you might ask. Well, there are at least two documentaries in the pipeline in which he features large as day, as well as Mitch Winehouse\u2019s Showbiz Rant, an online TV series that films him in his cab sounding off to various celebrity-lite passengers (David Hasselhoff; someone called Shaggy, who was told to take his feet off the seat) \u2013 \u201cAnd don\u2019t get me started on that Lady Gaga\u2026\u201d and so on \u2013 and now he\u2019s even recording an album of his own, Rush of Love, due to be released in spring.\nIsn\u2019t it a bit weird, I ask him, since he would never have got an album out if\u2026 \u201cNever. Not in a million years,\u201d he jumps in. \u201cCourse not. I mean, I\u2019m not an idiot. I know that I got the album \u2019cos I\u2019m Amy\u2019s dad.\u201d\nYou love the limelight? \u201cThat\u2019s a very good question, and you wanna know the truth? I do. There\u2019s no getting away from it, Ginny. But I didn\u2019t ask to go before the Commons select committee [to talk about addiction in families], just like I didn\u2019t ask to go on GMTV or This Morning or Ian Wright\u2019s show. They invited me. What am I supposed to do? Not go? And if I said, \u2018I didn\u2019t enjoy it,\u2019 I\u2019d be lying because I do enjoy it. But I don\u2019t want it to come across that I\u2019m big-headed and I love the limelight for the sake of it.\u201d\nIt was for Amy\u2019s sake, initially \u2013 a self-confessed \u201cDaddy\u2019s girl\u201d with those words tattooed on her arm \u2013 that her father came to the fore to protest about various untruths, as he sees it, being written about his daughter. And now that the media have got a taste of Mitch, we find him distinctly more-ish. Although it\u2019s debatable how much of that has to do with him being a convenient conduit to channel Amy, whose talent \u2013 and, more so, the personal turmoil that threatens to destroy it \u2013 makes her such an object of fascination.\nFor her father, of course, this objectification of Amy is part of the problem. The more insatiable the public interest in the details of her downward spiral, the longer it will take her to recover \u2013 or, according to him, stay recovered: \u201cMy daughter is a recovering addict. She is not a drug addict now.\u201d He says she has been clean of drugs for a year. A whole year? \u201cYes, a whole year.\u201d But according to one of the documentary-makers, Daphne Barak, who spent time with father and daughter in St Lucia and later wrote about it, Mitch had said there had been relapses since Christmas and, \u201cShe [Amy] didn\u2019t [give up drugs] all of a sudden; she was talking about it for two or three months.\u201d\nWhen he talks to me, however, Mitch\u2019s version of events is rather different. He tells me his daughter declared in August last year, \u201c\u2018Dad, that\u2019s it. I\u2019m not taking drugs any more. I\u2019m done.\u2019 It did take her a couple of months, but she actually came off them in about October.\u201d Part of me thinks that as Amy\u2019s father, he is entitled to offer whatever edit on his daughter\u2019s progress he wishes. But there is also something Faustian about accepting the role of the singer\u2019s public mouthpiece that makes me want him to be, at least, consistent in what he tells us. At one point, he says apropos of an anecdote about him commanding Mick Jagger to pipe down during one of her performances: \u201cWhat\u2019s good about it is that it\u2019s a true story. Normally, I make these things up.\u201d Later, I make him swear on his daughter\u2019s love that he hasn\u2019t made up anything in this interview, and he does. So since he seems to me to be a good, warm-hearted bloke, we\u2019ll take him at his word.\nBarak, who did not endear herself to either her rival documentary-makers (with their My Daughter Amy as opposed to her Saving Amy) or her subjects, painted a grim portrait of Amy as a tragic child-woman \u2013 needy and obnoxious, in turn \u2013 who has substituted her drug addiction for alcohol abuse. Is this true? \u201cWell, you know, having spoken to many counsellors and therapists and experts in the field, normally one addiction can follow another. But this isn\u2019t an addiction; it\u2019s just that she drinks too much every now and again,\u201d he says. \u201cIt\u2019s not alcoholism. I would say that she doesn\u2019t drink every day, but when she drinks, she drinks a lot.\n\u201cBut there are also positive addictions, like her gym work. She\u2019s got the physiology \u2013 if that\u2019s the right word \u2013 of, like, an Olympic athlete. The doctor who saw me last week said: \u2018She could go into the Olympics, she\u2019s so fit.\u2019\u201d\nIs she happy? \u201cWell\u2026 it\u2019s difficult to know really. I mean, she\u2019s my daughter and we\u2019re very close but she\u2019s not gonna tell me her most intimate things.\u201d But does she seem happy to you? \u201cMost of the time.\u201d\nAmy has been back in London, from her extended Caribbean sojourn, for about three months, working on songs for her new album and living in Barnet, near her mother. Her father says she wants to move back to Camden. Is that a source of debate for you? (He had earlier in our conversation told me that an addict had to be removed from surroundings that trigger their addiction.) \u201cWell, it\u2019s her choice \u2013 she\u2019s 26 years old \u2013 and it\u2019s her money.\u201d But the thought of it makes you anxious? \u201cWhat I was saying to you before \u2013 and I\u2019m not talking about Amy, because Amy hasn\u2019t taken drugs for a year \u2013 is if anybody wants drugs, they could be in Orkney, the Outer Hebrides, and they\u2019d pick up the phone and within an hour, somebody will be there with drugs. So it doesn\u2019t matter where you are.\u201d\nThis is not the first time that Mitch seems to contradict himself, but the role of a loving parent in dealing with a child \u2013 who remains that father\u2019s child, regardless of his or her age \u2013 is, perhaps, necessarily contradictory. You want to protect your daughter from herself, and from those who would prey on her vulnerabilities; you want to protect her from the scrutiny of the public and the press. You consider tough love or maybe that she needs more love. Most of all, it seems \u2013 certainly in Mitch\u2019s case \u2013 that you want to believe that every small, teetering step towards getting your child back from the possibility of extinction might presage the larger step into her being restored to the blithe, healthy spirit she once was. If his own \u201crecovery\u201d \u2013 and it\u2019s interesting that he uses that word for himself \u2013 involves a measure of blanking out and delusion (another word he uses), then so be it.\nThere is a poignant moment when Mitch is crooning some of the songs from his new album (Sinatra, but not the standards; Ant\u00f4nio Carlos Jobim\u2019s How Insensitive; four new songs by Tony \u201cSave Your Kisses for Me\u201d Hiller \u2013 \u201cThey\u2019re much better than that; more like Cole Porter\u201d) and I ask him whether he has a vocal coach. \u201cI don\u2019t need one,\u201d he says, mock-outraged. \u201cI taught Amy to sing, for God\u2019s sake! She used to stand on the table when she was 2, even younger\u2026and I would sing\u2026\u201d He starts to croon, and I swear there\u2019s a trace of that distinctive, slightly adenoidal Amyness about his voice. \u201c\u2026\u2018Are the stars out tonight? I don\u2019t know if it\u2019s cloudy or bright/ Cause I only have eyes for\u2026\u2019 and she would sing \u2018you\u2019 in her little voice. Oh, she was so cute.\u201d\nAny parent can imagine the pain of seeing their child go off the rails so spectacularly. How did that dear little girl end up with blood-stained pumps and wild eyes, scoring drugs from a prostitute, fighting with her (now ex) husband, Blake Fielder-Civil? \u201cI can\u2019t remember how I felt,\u201d he says. \u201cWell, I do remember how I felt; I felt terrible. But part of the way I protect myself, and it\u2019s not only me who does this \u2013 it happens with all the families of recovering addicts \u2013 is that as things progress positively, they kind of draw veils down a little bit. You can\u2019t forget entirely.\u201d\nOne of the reasons he agreed to participate in My Daughter Amy, Mitch says, is that although Amy was beginning to emerge \u201cfrom 18 months of hell\u201d, she was still being portrayed as \u201c\u2018Junkie Amy\u2019 and \u2018Wino\u2019 and all the rest of the stuff they do. And yet Amy was starting to get better, remarkably better, and I felt this was a chance to redress the balance and maybe show how she really is. How she is now.\u201d\nBack then, he admits that he did succumb to despair, although he never really could bring himself to believe that Amy might die: \u201cPeople said that I wrote her obituary. Absolute rubbish.\u201d He took to going to bed with his mobile phone, knowing that it could go at three in the morning. \u201cAnd I\u2019d be waiting for the phone to ring. But it was almost as bad if it didn\u2019t ring. Because if the phone didn\u2019t ring, why didn\u2019t it ring? Is it because something bad has happened? Is it because it\u2019s been a good night? You know, there is a whole raft of emotions. What I found amazing is that if you had told me about this ten years ago, I wouldn\u2019t have believed it. But you are programmed genetically to protect yourself emotionally and you won\u2019t know that until, God forbid, you are in that situation.\n\u201cAnd delusion is part of the protection. I\u2019ve spoken to literally dozens of families [in therapy groups dealing with addiction], nice middle-class and working-class people, who were normal and didn\u2019t abuse their children, and we have had exactly that conversation \u2013 \u2018How are you able to cope with this?\u2019 \u2013 and part of it is delusion, because how else can you survive? It\u2019s all about very, very small steps forward, the occasional big step backwards, small steps forward\u2026 You cling on to little things; little things become massive triumphs.\u201d\nI had read that Amy suffered from manic depression but refused to take medication for it. Is that so? \u201cShe\u2019s never been diagnosed as a manic depressive. Ever.\u201d Has she ever been thought to be? \u201cNot as far as I know.\u201d Frankly, I would have thought that if there were a possibility that this might be the case, it would have emerged by now. Is there any manic depression in the family? \u201cI\u2019m pretty sure there\u2019s none.\u201d What about addictive behaviour? \u201cKindly leave my Uncle Alfie out of this, please,\u201d he says crossly. Sorry? \u201cNah, that\u2019s a line from Hancock\u2026 \u2018Is there any insanity in your family?\u2019 \u2018Please can you leave my Uncle Whatever out of this.\u2019\u201d\nWhat about his own experience of drugs?\n\u201cI once took a puff of a marijuana whatever \u2013 reefer \u2013 and I thought, \u2018Why is everyone going mad? This is rubbish.\u2019 I\u2019d rather go and eat a bagel [which he pronounces \u2018bygel\u2019, very Yiddishly] or something.\u201d Drink? \u201cI have a glass of wine every now and then.\u201d\nI ask how many times Amy has done rehab but, apparently, she really meant it when she sang, \u201cNo! No! No!\u201d \u201cYeah, she\u2019s got a thing about it\u2026 I don\u2019t know why, \u2019cos there\u2019s obviously hundreds of thousands of cases of people going into rehab and having marvellous results,\u201d her dad says.\n\u201cShe\u2019s had counselling and therapy but she\u2019s got this thing about being able to sort a lot out in her own mind. You could argue that it wouldn\u2019t work for everybody, but at the moment it\u2019s working for her.\u201d\nSo what\u2019s his explanation for Amy\u2019s descent? \u201cI would say that she couldn\u2019t deal with fame and in her mind, she had image problems, which she shouldn\u2019t have done \u2019cos she\u2019s lovely, and at the time that she was vulnerable, she met Blake who, in my mind, fed on that vulnerability and, you know, it was, \u2018I love you, darling. Here\u2019s some drugs.\u2019\u201d (Blake has admitted that he introduced Amy to crack and heroin.)\nIs he totally out of the picture now? \u201cHope so. It will be a disaster if he\u2019s not out of the picture.\u201d Do you have anything to do with him or his family? \u201cNone whatsoever. I think his family saw [us as] a fantastic opportunity.\u201d\nIsn\u2019t there talk about a book coming out? \u201cYou\u2019re kidding! See what I mean? Now why would anybody be interested in a book that that woman [his mother] is going to write about her son, who is a criminal? He\u2019s a drug addict, he\u2019s a liar. He kicked someone in the head [so hard that the victim\u2019s face had to be reconstructed], he tried to pervert the course of justice and his mother\u2019s going to write a book about him?\u201d\nNo, I think he was going to write a book (which was to have been a joint effort with his ex); that\u2019s what I read anyway. \u201cHe\u2019s gonna write a book? What\u2019s he gonna write a book about?\u201d My life with Amy? My drugs hell? \u201cOK, that\u2019s up to him. We need the money; we\u2019ll be able to sue him. Jesus Christ. I think I have heard something about this before. It\u2019s pathetic. Anyway, I don\u2019t want to get aggravated by it.\u201d\nIt\u2019s only at the end of the interview that Mitch mentions that for the past two years \u2013 precipitated by Amy\u2019s annus (or so) horribilis \u2013 he has suffered from panic attacks that have made it impossible for him to drive his cab. \u201cIf I heard over the radio that the traffic was gridlocked, it would come on,\u201d he says. Now he\u2019s worried that if he took a passenger, he might have forgotten the best way to go. Anyway, as he admits, he\u2019s no longer reliant on cabbing for an income since he and Janis (Amy\u2019s mum, his ex, who suffers from multiple sclerosis) now run their daughter\u2019s business, which is worth \u00a35 million \u2013 half of what it was the previous year. (So, this is what Mitch meant when he said, \u201cWe need the money.\u201d)\nWhen we had started talking about Amy\u2019s troubles, he said that, \u201cMy own feeling is that Amy was affected by Janis\u2019s and my break-up [when Amy was 9], although my son [Alex] and daughter saw even more of me. In the end, they said, \u2018Dad, you really don\u2019t have to come here every day!\u2019 But I couldn\u2019t be without them. I had to see them every day \u2013 which was causing Janis problems. But, obviously, when I left home I was guilt-ridden; not because of Janis, but because of the children. Although it was definitely the right thing to do.\u201d\nHad you been arguing a lot? \u201cNo, you couldn\u2019t argue with Janis. She\u2019s such a lovely, well-centred person.\u201d But unfortunately you had fallen in love with someone else (Jane, who worked with him in a double-glazing business and to whom he has been married ever since)? \u201cExactly. It happens. But Amy has known Jane since she was 18 months old and she loved her then and she does now. Everyone loves Jane. Janis loves Jane. They all love each other! It\u2019s fantastic!\u201d\nHe comes from a huge Jewish family \u2013 tailors on his mother\u2019s side; barbers and cabbies on his father\u2019s \u2013 and was brought up not far from where we are conducting our interview in a film production office in Commercial Street, East London. \u201cWe had six people living in a house, including my uncle, my great-grandmother, my grandmother, my aunty, and a lodger from the Holocaust who lived upstairs, and everyone was kissing and cuddling you. It was great in those days.\n\u201cAnd when you come from the East End, you do whatever you can to protect your family. When we moved to Southgate in North London, we were the only Jewish family there and they thought Jews had horns in their heads or something. So I was fighting all the time \u2013 that\u2019s what you did, when we were kids. I\u2019m not a tough guy or anything like that, but I know how to protect my family.\u201d\nWhen were you last in a fight? \u201cIn a fight?! I\u2019m 59 years old! If I had a fight now I\u2019d die. In a fight? About 20 years ago.\u201d He does admit to throwing Pete Doherty out on his ear, when Amy was late for a gig and our Rimbaud wannabe was sprawled on her bed, being creative. When I ask Mitch what he thinks of Pete, his answer is succinct: \u201cHe\u2019s an a***hole, but an enormously talented a***hole.\u201d The problem for Mitch is that Pete\u2019s attitude towards drugs is the same as his former son-in-law\u2019s, who once told him: \u201cI don\u2019t want to give up drugs. I like them.\u201d\nNick Cave \u2013 a reformed junkie \u2013 told me he used to feel much the same way. But he also said, \u201cI think the heroin addict becomes one in order to separate himself from the rest of society. It\u2019s a very masochistic act. For a long time, it served me well, but there did come a point when it became intolerable. When it became clear that it was interfering with things that were ultimately more important to me \u2013 like my artistic aspirations.\u201d\nCave was a good deal older than Winehouse when he finally came to that conclusion, and it takes a certain level of maturity to weigh up your priorities in life. Amy has had a number of serious health scares \u2013 such as the threat of emphysema \u2013 but is she evolved enough to comprehend that her significant talent is worth fighting for, let alone her own health?\nIt\u2019s worth reminding ourselves of her triumphs before her (hopefully short-lived) fall. Her debut album, Frank, in 2003, was critically acclaimed and was nominated for the Mercury Prize. With Back to Black, its follow-up in 2006, she became the first British singer to win five Grammys, including Best New Artist, Record of the Year and Song of the Year. In 2007, she won the Brit award for best British female artist. She has won the Ivor Novello songwriting award three times.\nHer dad loves Frank: \u201cIt was a much better time for her. The songs were great, innocent-ish. Back to Black obviously sold three trillion copies or whatever but, of course, to me, I can\u2019t play the album any more because a lot of the songs are about Blake. \u2018If my man were fighting\u2019 \u2013 I mean how great is this \u2013 \u2018If my man were fighting/ Some unholy war/ I would be beside him.\u2019 But she\u2019s talking about depression, \u2019cos he\u2019s not around and whatever, and I\u2019m thinking to myself, \u2018Well, I don\u2019t wanna listen to this album much any more.\u2019 It reminds me of a really bad time and part of my recovery is to put that aside.\u201d\nHe wasn\u2019t best pleased when he first heard What Is It About Men?, with its stinging lyrics: \u201cUnderstand, once he was a family man/ So surely I would never, ever go through it first hand/ Emulate all the s*** my mother hated.\u201d \u201cI thought, \u2018How dare you?\u2019 and when I read it, I thought, \u2018You\u2019ve got it bang on.\u2019 \u2018All the s*** my mother hated\u2019 \u2013 perfect. Absolutely perfect. The way she encapsulated it in a sentence. At least I\u2019m big enough to admit it.\u201d\nHe\u2019s heard some lines from a new song, Queen of Spades, Amy wrote for her paternal grandmother, Cynthia (teenage sweetheart of the late jazzman, Ronnie Scott), whose death three years ago was thought to have contributed to her granddaughter\u2019s descent: \u201cShe was a massive influence on Amy because she brought the kids up when we worked.\u201d\nThey\u2019ve been talking quite a lot about songwriting recently; perhaps working on his own album is giving Mitch some ideas of his own. \u201cWhat she does is carry loads of books around with her all the time, and I say to her, \u2018What are you doing?\u2019 and she says, \u2018I\u2019m just writing\u2019. So when she\u2019s gonna write the album, she does it in a month. She writes little stanzas which she uses and goes back to.\n\u201cActually, you tend to forget\u2026 because to me, she\u2019s Amy, my daughter, I tend to forget that she\u2019s actually a genius. And those aren\u2019t my words. She\u2019s got people thinking she\u2019s a genius and it\u2019s not the singing so much as the songs. I say to her, \u2018Amy, when you write a song, what do you do first? Do you write the music or do you write the lyrics?\u2019 And she looks at me, like to say, \u2018Aw, Dad!\u2019, like I should know! So with Rehab, it\u2019s re-hab \u2013 bah, bah. \u2018They tried to make me go to re-hab,\u2019\u201d he sings rather unconvincingly, \u00e0 la Matt Monro, \u201cso she\u2019s explaining to me about beats, but I\u2019m still not quite sure what she does.\u201d\nWhat parts of you do you see in her? (They are remarkably similar physically around the eyes and strong eyebrows.) \u201cShe never gives in, ever. She\u2019s resolute and brave and \u2013 although, obviously, there is a weakness in her character \u2013 nothing can beat her down when she sets her mind on it. And she\u2019s got a great sense of humour. Like me, she\u2019s a great practical joker. I mean, with us it\u2019s like a fine art.\u201d\nMitch is obviously partial, but Lily Allen said something similar: \u201cI know Amy Winehouse well. And she is very different to what people portray her as being. Yes, she does get out of her mind on drugs sometimes, but she is also a very clever, intelligent, witty, funny person who can hold it together. You just don\u2019t see that side.\u201d\nWhat would he wish for his daughter if he could wave a magic wand? \u201cWhat I would want her to be is as she is \u2013 a normal, lovely person with a loving family \u2013 and to find a man, or a woman, if she wants\u2026\u201d Oh! Is she\u2026? \u201cNo, no, no, no! A person she loves and who loves her and who cherishes her and wants to have children with her. That\u2019s what I hope and I don\u2019t care about her career. Well, I do care about her career, but it\u2019s secondary. In other words, I\u2019d prefer it if she had a normal life being a normal person, but she\u2019s not.\u201d\nFinally, what does he think Amy\u2019s new album will be about? Might there be any sunny songs? \u201cI doubt that for one second! Every song Amy writes is like\u2026 [He sticks an imaginary knife into his substantial tum and circles around as though he is eviscerating his entrails.] In Yiddish, it\u2019s \u2018schlapping your kishkas [your insides] out\u2019. Amy\u2019s a great one for schlapping her kishkas \u2013 because every song is, like, heartbreak\u2026 sorrow\u2026 depression,\u201d he thumps out the words. \u201cShe\u2019s never gonna write a song about, \u2018You look lovely in the moonlight, my darling, give me a kiss.\u2019 I mean, that\u2019s just never gonna happen, is it?\u201d\nMy Daughter Amy is on at 7.30pm on January 8, 2010, on Channel 4, made by Transparent Television.

        "raw_content": "2018-07-06. A fence built to keep out wild dogs has dramatically altered the Australian landscape.\nBy Lakshmi Supriya, Science Magazine. For GSS Ecosystem Change chapter 6. Excerpt: Southern Australia\u2019s Strzelecki Desert is home to two very different landscapes: an area of 10-meter-high sand dunes with patches of dense woody shrubs, and\u2014just a few kilometers away\u2014shorter and flatter dunes surrounded by sparse vegetation. The reason for the difference? Dingoes. That\u2019s the conclusion of a study published this week in the Journal of The Royal Society Interface, in which researchers compared the landscape on either side of a 5000-kilometer-long wire mesh dingo fence. Built almost a century ago to keep Australia\u2019s wild dogs from private land and livestock, the structure appears to have altered an entire ecosystem, the team found. When the researchers compared drone-captured images of the dunes and vegetation cover on either side of the fence to historical aerial photographs taken between 1948 and 1999, they discovered that there are about 60 more woody shrubs per hectare on the side of the fence with no dingoes than on the other side. The dunes on the nondingo side are also about 66 centimeters taller. The likely explanation, the team says, is that without a top predator like the dingo, smaller hunters such as foxes and cats have flourished, decimating prey species like hopping mice and rabbits. With fewer animals left to eat the plant seeds, the shrub cover has increased. The shrubs hold down sand and cause winds to skim over their tops, causing dunes to grow taller and carving the landscape differently on the two sides of the fence.... http://www.sciencemag.org/news/2018/07/fence-built-keep-out-wild-dogs-out-has-dramatically-altered-australian-landscape",

        "raw_content": "Canon Middle East, a provider of imaging technologies and services, announced that it has been awarded the Dubai Chamber of Commerce Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Label for the sixth consecutive year. The CSR Label is in recognition of Canon\u2019s long-term commitment to initiatives that deliver social and environmental benefits to the community.\nThe CSR label award was first introduced in 2010 by Dubai Chamber and has since then grown in significance to become the highest level of recognition for the CSR efforts of businesses in the Middle East. It is also the first CSR Label in the region that builds on international standards while ensuring local relevance.\nMai Youssef, Corporate Communications and Marketing Services Director, Canon Middle East and Canon Central and North Africa, said: \u201cOur commitment to CSR resonates with Canon\u2019s global corporate philosophy of \u2018Kyosei,\u2019 which means living and working together for the common good. By delivering social and environmental benefits through our people, initiatives and products, we are powerfully demonstrating our commitment to our philosophy.\u201d\n\u201cThe CSR Label is a significant achievement for us, and we are honoured to be recognised successively for the past six years. The CSR label gives significant meaning and context to the work Canon does on a local level to support and contribute in the communities in which we operate. The recognition also drives us to continue spreading our philosophy to our employees, partners and customers in the region to promote the immense value and positive influence of corporate social responsibility in today\u2019s world,\u201d added Mai.\nMost recently, Canon raised AED 250,000 to support two educational programmes, one in the Middle East and a second in Africa in partnership with Dubai Cares. The funds were raised through sponsors and the general public who participated in the Canon Day of Giving fundraising event last month at Zabeel Park.\nCanon\u2019s commitment to sustainability spans across responsible business, society and the environment. It continues to monitor and assess its environmental impact to identify ways to improve its sustainability performance across all areas of the business.",

        "title": "Last Movie You Watched",
        "raw_content": "Author Topic: Last Movie You Watched (Read 2010264 times)\nFor perhaps not quite a week, I have had the Blu ray edition of Rosemary\u2019s Baby waiting around, while I in turn waited to be ready to watch. Fact is, I was powerfully impressed by the creepiness, when I watched on DVD (oh \u2013 I forget how long ago). And that reinforced the unease which is the now-distant memory of partially watching a TV broadcast, LONG ago.\nSo, why \u2013 assuming for the purpose of discussion that I am not a glutton for punishment \u2013 did I want to watch again? To relive the suffering?\nFirst, in the interval I have watched Chinatown, which is beautiful and a magnificent achievement. And it set me to recollecting my experience of the Baby, and I started to sift what it was that I saw, from the emotional trip I was sent on. And I had to own that R\u2019s B was, likewise, beautiful and a magnificent achievement, and I wanted to watch it again, for that reason. I also realized via hindsight, that there is quite a bit of wry humor at play in the movie, with perceiving which, my preoccupation with The Creepy interfered.\nSecond, as I think I have noted here before, I am quite a fan of Alien, and can now watch it again and again without jumping out of my skin (which was certainly my experience in the cinema when I first saw it). So I felt speculatively confident that, watching R\u2019s Baby again, I would smile more than I did on previous viewings. (And yes, smiling at all would be \u201cmore.\u201d)\nThe experiment, I can report, was a complete success. I watched without becoming embroiled in the unease, but fully appreciating it from an emotional remove. There was also, of course, the inevitable appreciation of two dozen details which escape you when watching a rich film only once. Among these, the score \u2013 I love it when the storytelling is so engrossing that I am not conscious of the music, which is also partly the composer\u2019s art.\nSo, what can I say? If you can bear it, I heartily recommend watching this, again.\nParenthetically . . . a couple of weeks ago, wishing to rewatch Yojimbo, I placed a hold at the BPL . . . for Sanjuro, also, which I have not seen. Practically the next day, I found an e-mail msg alerting me to a Criterion flash sale, so I went ahead and slid the Yojimbo/Sanjuro two-fer, on Blu ray into my cart. And as I perused the catalogue for an additional item, so as to qualify for free shipping, lo! I saw Rosemary\u2019s Baby in the catalogue, and, while I have spelled out the rationale above, I felt in a split second that that was exactly the third item for me at this time.\nThis was true, and yet it was nevertheless something of a surprise . . . I still had the Experience to overcome, as noted above: Yes, I wanted to see it again, but I needed to pick the time.\nAm I finicky? Well, perhaps.\nLast night: Yojimbo (1961) and Play It Again, Sam (1972)\nIf my timing that day had worked out otherwise, I was going to post:\nPlay It Again, Sam (1972) and Rosemary\u2019s Baby (1968) \u2014 two very different not-entirely-normal relationships . . . .\n\"not those candles, those are for a Jewish holiday!\" - or something like that\nQuote from: milk on February 26, 2018, 08:47:17 AM\nGreat fun! As we expect . . . .\nBananas is next! When they/it lands.\nMaybe too long, but I was entertained.\nLast night\u2019s B-movie adventure was Predator. I did not go to it absolutely \u201cfresh\u201d; long ago I saw maybe five minutes of Schwarzenegger toting an arsenal in the jungle, at a time in my life when I had little artistic patience for that sort of rannygazoo ; and last week, I watched a review of the movie on YouTube by someone who simultaneously entirely enjoys the movie, yet had fun poking holes in the narrative\u2019s logic \u2013 a review in which the excerpts, if strung together, basically told the Reader\u2019s Digest version of the plot. Oh, and earlier still, I watched (also on YouTube) Siskel & Ebert, and was greatly tickled at how sharply (yet amicably) they differed on the flick\u2019s merits. (\u201cYour standards are dropping.\u201d)\nhttp://www.youtube.com/v/oXN0MeZKw88\nBut I did not watch it, requiring that the plot be entirely new to me. Per Ebert, I just wanted to be entertained. I was also curious, because Predator was the movie John McTiernan made the year before Die Hard. So yes, I was fully prepared to enjoy Predator now, even as it was (as I say) absolutely not a movie I should have much liked, had I watched it back when it was first released.\nFor a slasher movie (in the segment which is a slasher movie \u2013 one of the ways it\u2019s fun, is its genre-switching) we actually do get to know all the team members, so there is a sense of mounting loss.\nLoved Alan Silvestri\u2019s score, not the subtlest work, but it\u2019s got the militaristic punch where it\u2019s needed, and keening tension elsewhere.\nGoldarnit, I\u2019m surprised at just how much I enjoyed this \u2019un.\nI also watched it late on video and was a bit embarrassed to like it. I bet it holds up better than Tootsie which I just rewatched. Some good writing early on but then the I Love Lucy plot takes over.\nThe Dressmaker....\nA stylish film about revenge and retribution.\nMy most recent is \"La belle noiseuse.\" 1991; dir. Jacques Rivette.\nI really enjoyed this; so much so that I need to see it again; mostly due to the ending. Very slow-paced, but not in a dull way; light on dialogue. If anyone else has seen this, I'd love to discuss the ending. One of my very favorite endings ever. It should also be noted that this is a 4-hour movie; I screened it over two nights.\nIn conclusion: recommended.\nLast night I watched Bananas, and it was a revelation. I expected it to be a series of set-piece jokes, expected the story to have an overall shape, though not the emotional roots of the later work, expected it to be reliably entertaining throughout. Beyond these, it exceeded good expectations. Never had I seen so much physical comedy on Allen\u2019s part; his facial acting on the subway car especially must have set Cary Grant himself to beaming with pleasure. I was not expecting that scenes from this early effort would slot themselves among my favorite Woody Allen scenes, but they did. To name but two instances: the \u2018break-up\u2019 scene \u2013 how they managed to play this without \u2018corpsing,\u2019 I\u2019ll never know; and Fielding saying good-bye to his parents in the OR. I think that part of the reason I was not expecting to be nearly so impressed with Bananas, is (e.g.) Allen\u2019s participation in What\u2019s New, Pussycat? \u2013 but, I might have guessed from how well Allen\u2019s work toward the end of Casino Royale helped out that . . . curious endeavor.\nAn even wider-eye-opening element was Marvin Hamlisch\u2019s music. One of my first girlfriends was a GREAT fan of A Chorus Line, so I hope I may be forgiven for saying that at an early point, I grew passionately bored with that music. The score for Bananas is expertly wrought, and expertly witty \u2013 a work (I do not much hesitate to suggest) of genius. Who knew?\nBoulevard....\nAn excellent performance from Robin Williams.\nNew Philippe Garrel film. It's a wonderful breezy rumination on relationships, desire and fidelity. A well acted three-hander for most of the time, beautifully shot in b&w in what looks like typical Parisian locales. The type of story that could have been situated in any of the last three or four decades and only few appearances of mobile phones place it as contemporary.\nDon't know if it's currently in theaters I've seen it at the local film festival. Also have tickets for the latest Francois Ozon film and the Assayas/Polanski one, though I'm not sure I'll make it to both.\nRecently I watched The Death Of Stalin. It's great fun.\nhttps://www.youtube.com/v/ukJ5dMYx2no\nQuote from: Dra\u0161ko on March 01, 2018, 12:46:03 PM\nLooks/sounds interesting.\nQuote from: Omicron9 on March 01, 2018, 08:59:45 AM\nYeah. Good stuff.\nAlso, on watching it I frequently find myself thinking 'Isn't nature wonderful?'\nLast night we streamed a couple of films that are nominated for tomorrow's Oscar Presentation, i.e. March 4 - Sunday:\nDarkest Hour w/ Gary Oldman as Winston Churchill - 6 nominations including 'Best Picture' and 'Best Actor' for Oldman who was quite remarkable - mainly about the first half of 1940 up until the Dunkirk 'rescue' (another film nominated for 'Best Picture').\nThe Shape of Water - 13 Oscar nominations - my word! 'Best Picture' & Sally Hawkins for 'Best Actress' + MANY more - a fantasy flick (w/ reminders of the 'Creature from the Black Lagoon') - we enjoyed the movie but not sure how many Oscars will be won?\nThere are 9 films for Best Picture and all so different - we've now seen 7 of the nominees - 'Three Billboards....' is probably my pick but who knows in this rather eclectic mix? Dave\nQuote from: SonicMan46 on March 03, 2018, 11:28:08 AM\nFor some reason I would like to see that one.\nThree Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri (2017, dir. Martin McDonagh) -- Saw this last night. As a big fan of McDonagh's work, my first reaction was \"wow,\" but will have to think more about why. Without giving anything away, the cast is excellent -- even the smaller roles, though Frances McDormand and Sam Rockwell are the standouts. McDonagh's screenplay has many of his trademarks: playing with language in often hilarious ways, unexpected violence, quirky characters.\nHaven't seen nearly enough of the Oscar nominees, but I'd be happy to see this win many awards tonight.\nDiabolik....\nIt certainly was diabolical and not in a good way!.\nPerhaps the best movie of last year. Extraordinary! Much better than Ladybird.\n\u00ab Last Edit: March 04, 2018, 08:55:23 PM by milk \u00bb",

        "raw_content": "The Ears of all were Attentive\nAll the people gathered together into the square before the Water Gate. They told the scribe Ezra to bring the book of the Law of Moses, which the Lord had given to Israel. Accordingly, the priest Ezra brought the law before the assembly, both men and women and all those old enough to understand. He read from it facing the square before the Water Gate from early morning until midday, in the presence of the men and the women and those old enough to understand; and the ears of all the people were attentive to the book of the law.\nThe scribe Ezra stood on a wooden platform that had been made for the purpose; and Ezra opened the book in the sight of all the people, for he was standing above all the people; and when he opened it, all the people stood up. Then Ezra blessed the Lord, the great God, and all the people answered, \u2018Amen, Amen\u2019, lifting up their hands. Then they bowed their heads and worshipped the Lord with their faces to the ground.\nNehemiah 8: 1-8.\nH ere is a story from fifteen hundred years ago. You may find it inspiring and it may tell you something about your life today. In the year 587 BC the Babylonian Empire conquered the city of Jerusalem, destroyed the temple and took a large part of the population into exile in Babylon where they and their descendents remained for fifty years. This time in the history of the Jewish people is described in the psalm: By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down and wept, when we remembered Zion. Eventually the Persian Emperor, Cyrus overthrew the Babylonians, and to their great surprise he allowed the Jews to return to their own country and helped them on their way.\nSlowly over the following years they resettled in Jerusalem. After a long delay they rebuilt the Temple, and the city walls. It might have seemed then that everything was in place: they had their homes and their modest livelihoods, they had security within the city walls and they had their place of worship. There was one thing more that they needed. The whole community, young and old, gathered in the city square and asked their leader, Ezra, to bring the Book of the Law of Moses and to read it to them.\nA story to inspire and to guide\nWhat Ezra read to them was the story of their ancestors, from the days of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. At a high point in the story Moses led the people out of slavery in Egypt into the wilderness; there God revealed his commandments to them on Mount Sinai. The story showed how God provided for his people and protected them; the commandments, when they obeyed them, guided them in living happy and fruitful lives.\nWhen the people in the city square heard all of this they were deeply moved. They remembered again who they were, God\u2019s people. That is to say: God had been at work in the lives of their ancestors, protecting and guiding them from the beginning. It followed that this same God was at work in their lives also. They were saddened that they had forgotten this and had forgotten also the wise way of living that God had offered them in the commandments he revealed to Moses.\nWords you needed to hear\nAs you think about that ancient story, you may see yourself in it and you may see your family and your country in it also. We need a lot of things for a satisfactory life. We need a place where we are at home and feel safe; we need work to do and food on the table. We need a place to worship. There is something else we need. We need to hear words like the words that Ezra and Nehemiah read to the people in the city square. It is likely that you remember words of your parents or grandparents or of wise teachers that have helped you find meaning in your life and have guided your behaviour. These words may also have helped you to see that there is a good God at work in your life, and that it makes sense to keep his commandments.\nWords that sustained our ancestors\nMost of our recent ancestors in Ireland were poor. They struggled to keep a roof over their heads and to survive from day to day. But there were words that sustained them. Not the words that Ezra and Nehemiah read to the people, but the words about Jesus in the Gospels. They pondered over the life, death and resurrection of Jesus in the mysteries of the Rosary. These words made them aware of the meaning of their own lives, and they helped them to be patient in difficult times. They gave them guidance for daily living: they prayed that \u2018meditating on these mysteries we may imitate what they contain.\u2019 And their meditation gave them hope for the future in this life and in the next; they prayed that \u2018we may obtain what they promise.\u2019\nWhat God is doing today\nIn our own time more and more people are opening the Bible and pondering its words; they do this on their own and in small groups. In page after page they read what God has done in the past; as they meditate on this, they become aware that God is doing similar things in their own lives and in the world today. They ponder on the great people of the Bible. They are reminded of people they have known themselves who were like these, and they are inspired to imitate their faith, their love and their courage.\nit revives the soul.\nThe rule of the Lord is to be trusted,\nit gives wisdom to the simple.\nthey gladden the heart.\nit gives light to the eyes.\nThe fear of the Lord is holy,\nabiding for ever.\nThe decrees of the Lord are truth\nand all of them just.\nMay the spoken words of my mouth,\nthe thoughts of my heart,\nwin favor in your sight, O Lord,\nmy rescuer, my rock.",

        "raw_content": "You are here: Home \u00bb Blog \u00bb Sermon Reflections \u00bb \u201cLife\u2019s Most Important Question\u201d (Mark 8:27-30)\n\u201cLife\u2019s Most Important Question\u201d (Mark 8:27-30)\nFollowing is a reflection by David Alves, one of our members, on the sermon preached by Pastor Erik on September 2, 2018.\nSurely how we answer the question \u201cWho is Jesus?\u201d is of greatest importance. The answer we give determines not merely the course of life\u2014for the answer and its implications govern all our thinking, choices, affections, worldview, and responses to life\u2019s circumstances\u2014but certainly our eternal destiny. On the great final day of our Lord, when all humanity stands before Him to be judged, all will be guilty of capital crimes against the God of heaven. All will be rebels. None of their works are sufficient to be the ground of acceptance by a holy God. Yet innumerable millions will be acquitted, declared righteous, and vindicated as God\u2019s chosen people despite their rebellion and the mocking rejection of a fallen universe\u2014why? Because, by God\u2019s sovereign grace alone, these have had their eyes opened and with genuine (though always imperfect) faith laid hold of the only right way to answer the most important question.\nThe entire gospel of Mark has been arranged to show us who Jesus is. The apostles are like all of us\u2014they have seen impressive and majestic displays of our Lord\u2019s glorious power and person, and they still do not see clearly, as the previous narratives indicate. But eleven of them have had their eyes opened by the Holy Spirit to see the most important thing, if somewhat dimly.\nWho is Jesus, really? Who do you say He is? There is only one right answer. This week\u2019s text unfolds for us that answer, and by it exhorts us to affirm it with a whole heart and spirit entirely turned towards the Lord.\nA. Jesus Asks a Probing Question (v. 27)\nThe Lord and His band have left Bethsaida, traveling about 25 miles to the north. They are heading towards Caesarea Philippi, a Gentile, pagan stronghold with a temple dedicated to Caesar worship and named after Herod Philip, the tetrarch. (To curry political favor with Caesar Augustus, who had given the region to his father Herod Antipas, Herod Philip renamed the city Caesarea.) It is while He and His men are on the way to this pagan stronghold that our Lord gives them this final exam. Shortly, they will have to proclaim not only to Jews but to a pagan and pluralistic world that there is only one true and living God, become incarnate in Jesus Christ, and that only He is Savior from sin and hell. And they will have to proclaim that all other religious worship is false, demonic, and damning. They must know who Jesus is o do so, and they must know not merely as a matter of intellectual affirmation but deep, whole-souled commitment.\nBefore Jesus asks them their personal understanding, He asks more broadly to broach the subject: \u201cWho do people say that I am?\u201d \u201cPeople\u201d is Gr. anthropoi, the generic term for people. Who do people in general say I am?\nThis was an important question for several reasons. First, it would demonstrate their awareness of popular opinion and estimation of Jesus, of which they could not afford to be ignorant. Second, and perhaps more importantly, it would eventually require them to deal with these opinions where they were wrong\u2014they would have to know what opinions were wrong, why, and how to explain the truth to people of different viewpoints. This is all excellent intellectual preparation for ministry! It is the same today. God\u2019s people cannot afford to be ignorant of general thinking in the world or in the church. We cannot merely know the truth, but must also have a working knowledge of wrong ideas and be able to basically explain why they are wrong and what the Bible teaches. While not every person needs to know the same things to the same degree, it is the better part of wisdom to be aware of what people believe and both what (if anything) it gets right as well as how it falls short of the biblical standard.\nB. The Disciples\u2019 Response (v. 28)\nHere, the disciples mention three things that are general consensus of who Jesus is. None are heretical; in fact, all have truth to them and would be considered rather esteemed views of anyone, never mind a carpenter of suspicious birth from the Podunk part of Israel. But all err greatly in what they leave out, and they fall short of the whole truth about the Lord Jesus.\nJohn the Baptist. This view was popularized by Herod, whose guilt over his unjust execution of John led him to believe that the glorious supernatural wonders he saw in the Lord proved he was a supercharged John the Baptist returned from the dead. Well, Jesus was supernatural, and He was a prophet who proclaimed the kingdom as John had. But He was more: He was John\u2019s creator and Lord, and John humbly pointed away from himself to the One he proclaimed\u2014Jesus.\nElijah. The awesome miracles Elijah worked during his ministry, along with the fact that he had not physically died but was carried up to heaven, still living, by a fiery chariot, led some to believe Jesus was Elijah returned or incarnate. Additionally, of course, the OT clearly taught that Elijah would come and have a new covenant ministry before the day of our Lord\u2014so perhaps that also mean Jesus was him. But rather Jesus was the Yahweh whose day \u201cElijah\u201d\u2014a collective term with one meaning, denoting all of the men used and anointed by God for His work, culminating in that final Elijah during the tribulation period\u2014would announce. Jesus tells us that He is not Elijah, but that John, His forerunner, was (Matt. 17:12).\nOne of the prophets. Matthew\u2019s account specifies that Jeremiah was named specifically (16:14). Surely Jesus spoke for God in both foretelling (prediction of God\u2019s future work via divine revelation) and forthtelling (the primary work of the prophets\u2014declaring God\u2019s will and ways and calling His people into fresh obedience and covenant renewal). And Jesus would weep over Jerusalem for its rejection of His divine visitation (Luke 13:34-35). Jesus was a prophet, but more than a prophet\u2014He was the God who woke up early sending His prophets to Israel (Jer. 7:25, 44:4 KJV). Matthew 23:37 implies that the judgment the nation will face in AD 70 for rejecting Messiah is the latest in a long series of judgments on the nation from which the Lord Jesus has sought to protect them by sending them prophets in the past\u2014prophets like Isaiah, Jeremiah, and Malachi! And verse 34 says that He will again send Israel and the world prophets and apostles from among His own followers, just as He has done in the past. Jesus is a prophet, but He is more\u2014He is the one God for whom they speak and in whose heavenly council they stand.\nC. Jesus Asks a Personal Question (v. 29a)\nJesus narrows in: \u201cBut you\u2014who do you say I am\u201d (lit.)? Having elicited the incorrect views of Him popular among the crowds, Jesus turns to His closest followers and asks them who they think He is. They are not exempt from the query. They have to answer. They must deal with Him for themselves.\nAnd so must we! Our parents, friends, or children cannot believe for us. We must answer Him in the depths of our soul. On that day, the last day, it will be just us and God with no intermediaries or recourse. Only having answered this question correctly can we have assurance now that then the blood of Jesus will perfectly cover us and we will be welcomed as forgiven, justified sons and daughters into the arms of a loving Father.\nD. The Great Confession (v. 29b)\nPeter, speaking for the eleven saved disciples and for all true disciples to come after, gives the only right answer: \u201cYou are the Christ, the Son of the living God!\u201d Who is Jesus? Messiah and God! \u201cChrist\u201d has only been used once before in Mark\u2019s gospel\u2014in 1:1, where Mark\u2019s narrative is \u201cthe beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ.\u201d (The \u201cgospel,\u201d then, is Jesus\u2019 person, teaching and work\u2014this began with His humble incarnation and climaxed in His victorious bodily ascension into heaven. The whole thing, including His teaching, is the gospel, though its heart is certainly His bodily death and resurrection.) Christ, of course, is a rich OT word that carries the idea of anointing and empowerment to serve and represent God\u2014kings, protests, and even prophets were anointed. Most frequently the term is associated with those kings in the great line of David who were the initial fulfillment of the Davidic promise, until the One came who in His First and Second Advents, as well as His work in between them, is the glorious final and complete fulfillment of that promise.\n\u201cSon of God\u201d has multiple aspects to its meaning. In Matthew and Mark, it appears to primarily denote Jesus\u2019 kingship, given that the Davidic promise assured David that His line would be sons to the one true God (2 Sam. 7:14), while John carries the more familiar denotation of Jesus\u2019 sovereign, eternal deity of one essence with the Father. As I have explicated before, \u201cSon of God\u201d most fully denotes (1) His eternal, absolute, complete deity, for He shares the nature of God as a son shares the humanness of his father; (2) His humiliation and incarnation, for in the virgin conception God literally fathered a son; and (3) His anointed kingly authority in the line of David to rule God\u2019s present-future kingdom.\nThis is who Jesus is. While our understanding of His person and work grows as we mature, this basic response must be in the heart for faith to be saving.\nMatthew tells us that Jesus pronounces Peter (and us) blessed, for it is only by God\u2019s work of revelation that we see Jesus for who He is, and that it is upon the truths Peter confessed that Jesus would build His Church.\nBut Mark simply takes us to Jesus\u2019 command in response to the confession, to which we turn.\nE. The Sovereign Command (v. 30)\n\u201cWarned\u201d is a stern admonition, even \u201cto order\u201d (it is used in chapter 1 of Jesus \u201cordering\u201d the unclean spirit to leave). Jesus is commanding them to tell no one?! Why?\nJesus does here what He has often done: He does not want the truth getting out in ways that can be misunderstood, misapplied, or be spiritually damaging to people. Shortly He will set His face to go to Jerusalem, where only one thing awaits Him. How ill it look to shout from the rooftops that He is Messiah to a people that have a very truncated misunderstanding of what that implies? He will only look like a failure and fraud if He is crucified (and indeed that is what they thought and still do). Only after His glorious resurrection can His men openly proclaim all that He is (Matt 17:9, Luke 9:36). Besides, the blindness yet residual in the disciples meant they could not fully understand the truth, and needed to grow (and be baptized and filled with the Spirit!) to rightly herald it. Soon, they will have all they need to tell the world.\nAnd we are among their audience, and we have to answer the same question they did. Who is Jesus? May God help us answer rightly for the glory of His great name!\n\u2190 Christ Makes the Blind\u2013and Seeing\u2013to See (Mark 8:22-26) (previous entry)\n(next entry) \u201cLooking Toward the Cross\u201d (Mark 8:31-33) \u2192",

        "raw_content": "Starrett's first filing with Federal Election Commission, which is due on July 15, will report raising some $721,000 between April 1 and June 30.\n\"Our grassroots campaign has received tremendous support in our effort to bring conservative principles from Tennessee to Washington, D.C.,\" the Murfreesboro attorney said in a statement. Starrett, vice president and special counsel for the Lion Real Estate Group, describes himself as a \"constitutional conservative\" and lifelong conservative activist.\nStarrett said he has visited every county in the district and attended dozens of meetings since he announced his campaign in April.\n\"We are well on our way to a victory in August of 2016. We will continue to use our resources to campaign hard in every county, bringing our constitutional conservative message to the voters in all 16 counties from Maury to Bradley.\"\nDesJarlais, a South Pittsburg physician first elected in 2010 election, hasn't yet released his second-quarter fundraising. The congressman was easily outspent in the 2014 primary by Jim Tracy, a state senator.\nTracy hammered the congressman, a self-described supporter of \"family values,\" over revelations from DesJarlais' 2001 divorce: that the physician dated a patient and a former patient, pressured the latter to get an abortion and went along with his first wife's two abortions.\nDesJarlais eked out a razor-thin 38-vote victory. In his first-quarter report for this year, DesJarlais said he raised nearly $145,000 and had $144,000 in the bank as of March 30. His disclosure showed that at least some influential supporters from Murfreesboro, who backed Tracy last time, have returned to the congressman's camp.\nAmong them were several top officials at National Healthcare Corp., a Murfreesboro-based nursing home chain. That included NHC Vice President David Coggins. Also returning to the DesJarlais fold is Rutherford County Mayor Ernest Burgess.\n\"I feel a lot of the Murfreesboro folks are backing us this time,\" DesJarlais told the Times Free Press in an interview last month. He said NHC officials had hosted a first-quarter fundraiser for him.\nDuring the same interview, the congressman said he hopes his 2014 win put past controversies behind him. His second marriage is stable and happy, he said.\n\"I think most people go through highs and lows in life,\" said DesJarlais. \"I obviously regret mistakes I've made in life. I've learned from them and tried to be a better person.\"\nShortly after announcing his challenge, Starrett said he had raised $500,000, with half the money coming from his own coffers\nThough DesJarlais' conservative voting record won him staunch tea party support, Starrett has several votes that he says show the congressman isn't quite the conservative he portrays himself to be.\nDesJarlais says he votes his district's wishes and that occasionally puts him at odds with vote scoring by various conservative groups.",

This highlights the value of a alert citizens. I have deleted the names of the individuals who were arrested from this e mail advisory. ALWAYS CALL THE POLICE IF YOU THINK THERE IS SUSPICIOUS ACTIVITY IN YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD.\nOn Thursday, August 18, 2011, at approximately 3:00 P.M., a Town of Greenburgh resident called the Greenburgh Police Department to report suspicious activity near the intersection of Delhi Road and Longview Drive, in the Edgemont section of town. The resident reported that a maroon car with (3) male occupants was driving very slowly passed a residence on Delhi Road. It was known to the caller that the residence was unoccupied at the time. The caller also reported a young male walking on her property, and then entering the described maroon sedan. The vehicle drove away and was further described as having damage to the trunk area, which was tied down with a rope or cord.\nGreenburgh Police Department patrol officers responded to the vicinity of Delhi Road and Longview Drive to check the area for the maroon sedan. During this time period, a second Greenburgh resident reported similar suspicious activity, in close time proximity, in the vicinity of Scarsdale Farm Road, near Fort Hill Road, in the Edgemont section of town. A maroon Toyota Camry bearing NY registration, FPJ1680, was observed and stopped by officers at the intersection of Fort Hill Road and Penny Lane. The vehicle was occupied by (4) males, and had damage to the trunk area, held down by a bungee cord. An investigation was conducted of the (4) occupants. Police Officer Richard Maguire checked the homes along Penny Lane for anything suspicious, and discovered an open Fed-Ex box on the front lawn of a residence on Penny Lane. The box appeared to have been torn open with the contents removed. A packing slip with a detailed description of the property was located by Officer Maguire. During the interview, Police Officers J.P. Lara and John DiStefano recovered (3) Perry Ellis Polo shirts from the car, which were allegedly taken from the Fed-Ex box, in front of the Penny Lane residence. A Tom Tom GPS system was also recovered from the vehicle. The GPS was allegedly taken from a vehicle parked on Penny Lane. All (4) males were placed under arrest and charged with Criminal Possession of Stolen Property, 5th degree, a Class a Misdemeanor.\nGreenburgh Police Detectives are investigating this matter to determine if any similar incidents occurred in the Edgemont area. It should also be noted that the alertness of the citizen\u2019s who observed the suspicious activity in their community, and called the police with a detailed description, was instrumental in locating the suspects and recovering the stolen property.",

        "raw_content": "Is your Lawn Service Really Organic? Really??\nIs your lawn program really organic? That was the question I heard from a Minnetonka, MN woman who called us last week. She has been using a national companies \u201corganic based\u201d lawn care program for the last few years. When she recently received her annual renewal contract recently she went to their website and poked around a bit. It seems their \u201corganic\u201d program uses the same chemicals and herbicides as their conventional program and throws in a few applications of partially organic fertilizer. This approach to organic lawn care is all too common. Many lawn care companies that represent themselves as natural or organic (and even include those terms in their name) are using advertising tactics that are unethical, or at best deceiving. Unfortunately, these practices are allowed as their is currently no definition or standard as to what is organic in the lawn care industry like the USDA has developed for agriculture. One of the few legitimate standards was set by the Northeast Organic Farming Association (NOFA) in 2001 to \u201cextend the vision and principles of organic agriculture to the care of the landscapes where people carry out their daily lives\u201d. They disallow the use of synthetic pesticides (insecticides, herbicides, fungicides), fertilizers or soil amendments. At Green Core Organic Lawn Care we have a different approach to land care than adding a few natural inputs to the usual services and calling it organic. We strive to follow the NOFA tenets. To us it\u2019s all about building up the soil to create a healthy stand of turf that is safe for people, animals and the environment. If you are interested in switching to an organic lawn service or even if you want to do it yourself, get in touch with us and we will be happy to help. http://www.greencoreorganics.com/contact-us/. The complete NOFA standards for organic land care can be found here. http://www.organiclandcare.net/sites/default/files/upload/standards2011.pdf\nNature\u2019s Organic Lawn Fertilizer: Microbes\nThe most promising advancements in organic lawn care in recent years have come in the area of bio fertility, the introduction of beneficial microorganisms to the soil to improve its structure, aid in turf nutrient uptake and increase the turf\u2019s resistance to stress and disease. Natural lawn care is based on the cycle that nature has used to nourish grass for billions of years: healthy soil feeding healthy plants. Soil was teeming with beneficial microbes (bacteria and fungi) that worked with the organic matter in the soil to feed the plant everything it needed at exactly the right time. Prior to the middle of the last century, successful growers of everything from crops to turf worked with and tried to enhance this cycle. With the introduction of synthetic fertilizers and pesticides in the 1940\u2019s, this began to change. Grass was fed a high nitrogen diet that was immediately available to the plant, bypassing the natural cycle. Inevitably, problems began to crop up: weeds, diseases and insect troubles, all indicators of a \u201cdead\u201dsoil. Grass became increasingly dependent on these inputs, resulting in weaker plants with underdeveloped root systems that were more susceptible to drought and stress. The reestablishment of a healthy soil with its beneficial microbes is the goal of an organic program. Traditionally, compost and compost tea have been the tools used to accomplish this goal. More recently, several companies have isolated and combined several microorganisms that are beneficial to turf and offered them in a microbially active liquid that mimics and enhances the benefits of compost tea. Some of these microbes improve soil structure, letting grass roots to expand and grow deeper, allowing them to access more soil moisture and resist drought. Others enhance the ability of the turf to acquire and retain nutrients that are present in the soil. Perhaps the most beneficial to the average lawn are nitrogen fixing bacteria that let the grass plant acquire and store nitrogen from the atmosphere. Several independent studies have shown these microbes have the ability to obtain more than 70 percent of the nitrogen required by the average lawn, making them nature\u2019s \u201corganic fertilizer\u201d. At Green Core Organic Lawn Care, we use a microbially active liquid in all of our applications. The photo of the lawn shown below was taken on July 20th 2013. The only water the lawn had up to this point was provided by Mother Nature. The only \u201cfertilizer\u201d the grass had were the beneficial microbes that allowed the grass to utilize the organic matter and nutrients in the soil. This lawn was on its third year of organic treatments.",

        "raw_content": "Return to Rev. Stephen Bachiler Table of Contents\nA Presentation by Eleanor Campbell Schoen\nSolomon and Naomi Cox Reunion, May 22, 1999\n(Reprinted here with permission of the author)\nStephen Bachiler was born in 1561, and according to World Family Tree, his birth took place at Wherwell, Hampshire, England. I knew nothing of Stephen Bachiler's parentage, but my daughter accidentally came across a father for him on the internet, and it named his father as Philip Bachiler, born 1535; and a mother, Ann, born in Flanders; and their natural son to be Stephen Bachiler, born 1561, with spouses Christian Weare, Helena Mason and Mary Beedle. However, George F. Sanborn, founder and genealogist of the Sanborn Family Association, having investigated this, and having found no proof, rejects it.\nThere is record Stephen Bachiler's entry to St. John's College, Oxford University, 17 November 1581, at the age of twenty-one. He was admitted as a Bachelor of Arts, 3 February 1585/6.\nThe leading profession for college graduates in that day was that of Clergyman, and Mr. Bachiler determined to study for the ministry, at that time being a member of the established church.\nApparently, the time between his graduation from Oxford in February 1585/6 and 17 July 1587, was spent in preparation for his lifework. On the day last named, the death of Edward Parret, vicar of Wherwell in Hampshire, made a vacancy. Mr. Bachiler was presented with the place by William West, Lord de la Ware , and became vicar of The Church Of Holy Cross and St. Peter. (This Lord de la Ware was the father of the Lord for whom Delaware was named.)\nThe village of Wherwell stretches along the westerly bank of the Test Stream (called a troutful stream), in Hampshire, three and one half miles from Andover. Wherwell Abbey was home of three, possibly four English Queens renowned for their extraordinary beauty. In 986, Wherwell Abbey was founded for The Benedictine Nuns in penitence for bloodshed by Aelfrida, in which she was concerned. Aelfrida was the wife of Edmund the Magnificent, King of England. She was our ancestress.\nThe story was thus told: \"and in the place, which by the inhabitants is called Wherwell, founded The Church of the Holly Cross, beseeching Christ, that He who was wounded on the memorable cross, shed His blood for the redemption of men, might deign to grant her the pardon purchased by His death, His wounds, and by the shedding of His blood rich in graces.\"\nToday, there is practically no trace of the old church. Of Mr. Bachiler's life at Wherwell, little is known. We only know that he remained there until 1605, for on the ninth day of August 1605, John Bate, A clergyman, was appointed Vicar of Wherwell . A vacancy existing because of \"The ejection of Stephen Bachiler\" , the last Vicar. Not much more is known of his life in England at this point until the spring of 1632, when he sailed for New England. But, in 1593, he was cited in Star Chamber for having \"uttered in a sermon at Newberry, very lewd speeches tending seditiously to the derogation of Her Majesty's government.\"\nQueen Elizabeth had an act passed against the Puritans in 1593 which gave the authorities the right to imprison the Puritans for failure to attend The Anglican Church.\n(Star Chamber was formerly an English Court of Civil and Criminal Jurisdiction of Westminster. It had jurisdiction over forgery, perjury, riots, maintenance, fraud, libel, and conspiracy, and could inflict any punishment short of death. This court was abolished in 1640.\nIts process was summary and often iniquitous (especially in the time of James I and Charles I). Jurors were punished for finding verdicts against the crown. This court approximated the methods of The Spanish Inquisition in extracting testimony.)\nMr. Bachiler was excommunicated from the church, and so no church record exists showing his abiding places. Probably he preached to different congregations, not in a settled way, but when he could avoid the persecution of the church people.\nOccasionally we get a glimpse of his location. In 1610, he appears to still be a \"Clergyman of the County of Southampton\". And on 11 June 1621, Adam Winthrop's diary says that he had \"invited Mr. Bachiler, the preacher\" to dine with him, presumably at Groton in Suffolk.\nSome of the parishioners of Barton Stacy in Hampshire, a few miles east of Wherwell, listened to his sermons at some time before 1632, for we find that Sir Robert Paine petitioned the council, stating that he was Sheriff of Hampton in that year and was also chosen church warden of Barton Stacy, and that some of the parishioners, petitioners tenants, having been formerly misled by Stephen Bachiler, a notorious inconformist, had demolished a consecrated chapel at Newton Stacy, neglected the repair of the parish church, maliciously opposed petitioners' intent(that he should repair the church at his own expense), and executed many things in contempt of the canons and the Bishop.\nOn the death of Queen Elizabeth in 1603, James VI of House of Stuart (son of Mary, Queen of Scots), ascended the English throne as James I. In January 1604, the famous Hampton Court Conference was held. When King James uttered his angry threat against the Puritans to Dr. Reynolds, the Puritan leader, \"I will make them conform or I will harry them out of the Kingdom\".\nThe presbyters or elders in the Scottish Church had always been a throne in James' royal side, so, when a delegation of bishops and other churchmen, including four Puritans, presented the list of requests for church reform at Hampton Court, he would only grant a few. To show that he meant business about his threat, James imprisoned the Puritans who presented the petition.\nThus James sealed his fate and that of the country; virtually signing the death-warrant of his son, Charles. If James had been less interested in showing off his theological knowledge; less frightened of falling into the Presbyterians hands (dissenters from whom he had escaped in Scotland); less consumed with his own idea of divine right at the Hampton Court Conference; and more willing to listen or accede even in a very small way to the moderate demands made by the reforming party within the reforming party within The Anglican Church, then probably, extreme radical Puritanism would not have come into being, and the Puritans who beset his son Charles would not have \"harried him out of the land\" via the headman's axe.\nOne good thing came out of the Hampton Court meeting. James accepted a proposal by one of the Puritans that the Bible then used, differed too much from the original Greek and Hebrew, and should be rewritten. James ordered that the most learned scholars at Oxford and Cambridge Universities work on translating a new Bible from the original languages. This resulted in the King James Bible (authorized version) still used today. The Pilgrims, however, used the Geneva Bible, first published in 1560, just after Elizabeth came to the throne. (This Bible has just been reprinted -- 1998, and has Puritan notes in the margin).\nThe dissenters were called Calvinists in Holland, Presbyterians in Scotland, Huguenots in France, and Puritans in England. Many went to Holland for refuge.\nThe next year, the King's threat was carried out against Stephen Bachiler. Winthrop said that Mr. Bachiler had suffered much at the hands of the Bishops, and in August 1605, he was replaced at Wherwell -- one of over one hundred who lost their pastorates because of James. Mr. Bachiler was among the first.\nMr. Bachiler embraced the \"Puritan Doctrine\" against the union of the church and state. He was considered a liberal Puritan, zealous of human rights. However, it seems that to the end of his life, he was constantly stepping on the toes of his parishioners.\nIt is thought, by some, that during the years from 1607 to 1620, Rev. Bachiler took refuge in Holland. We know his son-in-law, Rev. John Wing, husband of Mr. Bachiler's daughter Deborah, was pastor of an English church in Middleburgh, Holland, until he returned to England just prior to his death.\nIn the year 1622, there are records of land transactions near Newton Stacy, England, by Mr. Bachiler; so it is known that some time prior to 1622, he returned to England -- if he ever did leave England except for visits to Holland.\nDuring the year 1629, a colonizing society \"The Plough Company\" was encouraging emigrants to go to New England. Mr. Bachiler invested one hundred pounds in the company (and loaned them more). He was determined to leave England for New England. It was during this year that Rev. John Wing, husband of Deborah Bachiler, wrote his will in London, and died 4 August 1630. Deborah, now a widow with three grown sons, made the decision to emigrate to America with her father. The three sons of her sister Ann, wife of Rev. John Sanborn, were also to make the journey with their grandfather.\nMr. Bachiler's daughter, Ann Sanborne was widowed by the time she was thirty. She remarried secondly by a license issued at Rochester, in Strood, Kent, on 20 January 1631/2 (Strood, Kent, Parish Register, Kent Record Office, Maidenstone, Kent), as \"Mrs. Anne Sanborne\" to \"Mr. Henry Atkinson\".\nA suit was brought against John Bate, son of Rev. John Bate, thus establishing the basis of family connection between Bate, Bachiler, and Mrs. Atkinson, among others; also giving evidence that Stephen Bachiler's first wife, Ann, mother of all his children, was possibly sister of Rev. John Bate, Mr. Bachiler's successor at Wherwell in Hampshire. This was discovered by Charles Edward Banks in an English court record (Court of Requests, Public Record Office, London, Req. 2/678/64, dated 2 November 15th Charles I (1639)) and preserved by Charles Hull Batchelder in his extensive manuscript collection on the family at The New Hampshire Historical Society in Concord [NH]. A photocopy of the original large vellum document of this suit, and a careful transliteration of it, were received by George Freeman Sanborn, Jr., who is the founder and first president of the Sanborn Family Association (Founded 1984). (Source: The New Hampshire Genealogical Record, whole number 29 -- January 1991 -- Volume 8, Number 1, Pg. 14).\nThe \"Plough Company\" was made up of a group of dissenters. Some time during 1629/30, they named Mr. Bachiler their pastor. The \"Plough Company\" applied for a land grant in Maine. This effort was spearheaded by Richard Dummer, who is often called a \"kinsman\" or Mr. Bachiler. Richard Dummer, in a letter to Nathaniel Bachiler (son of Stephen, addressed him as \"cussin\".\nRichard Dummer's first wife was Stephen Bachiler's step-daughter, being a daughter of Rev. Thomas and Helena Mason. Mrs. Helena Mason, widow, became Mr. Bachiler's third wife, and is the one who accompanied him to America. Her daughter was Frances Mason Dummer.\nThere are gaps in the English career of Stephen Bachiler. It would appear that he lived at Wherwell for most of the years from his induction there as vicar in 1587 until 1614, and that he then resided in Newton Stacy from 1614 to 1631. Shortly before his departure for New England.\nHe apparently lived briefly at South Stoneham, Hampshire, after disposing of his land at Barton Stacy, for that is the residence he gave for himself and his wife, Helena, (age 48), and his widowed daughter, Ann Sanborne (age 30), then living in \"ye stand\", to go to Flushing, Holland, for two months to visit his sons and daughters\". This request was made 23 June 1631. Previously his daughter, theodate (theo-dah-tay) and her husband, Christopher Hussey, had been dispatched to the new world. It may be that Deborah Wing, his daughter had to returned to her old home in middleburgh, Holland.\nFlushing is in Zealand near Middleburgh. Probably Mr. Bachiler's children and grandchildren were on the island of Walcheren, which contains both Flushing and Middleburgh.\nMr. Bachiler had three sons: Nathaniel who was a merchant; Stephen, who served as chaplain to Sir Charles Morgan in Holland; and Samuel, who was a minister in Sir Charles Morgan's fighting regiment in Holland. That same year Samuel was offered a pastorate in Flushing, but he declined. He preached \"in the Armie\" at Danger-Leager, and to the English at Gorinchem and Amsterdam. He wrote a book in 1625 of meditations on ....\nDeuteronomy 23:9-14 \"When the host goeth forth against thine enemies, then keep thee from every evil thing -- for the Lord God walketh in the midst of thy camp to deliver thee, and to give up thine enemies before thee; therefore shall thy camp be holy; that he seeth no unclean thing in thee, and turn away from thee.\"\nThere is a three page preface to his book addressed \"to all my deare and loving countrymen in service to the states of the United Provinces, the Honorable Officers, and all honest souldiers of the English Nation residing in the Netherlands, and specially (as service bindeth me) to those of Gorcum in Holland.\"\nOn 9 March 1632, the Bachiler's boarded the ship \"William and Francis\" from London; Rev. Bachiler and his third wife, Helena; his widowed daughter, Deborah Wing, and her three sons, Daniel, John, and Stephen; also three Sanborne grandsons (Stephen, John, and William).\nFrom the \"Planters of the Commonwealth\", passengers and ships, page 96 -- \"ship: William and Francis\". Mr. ----- Thomas, Master. Left London 9 March 1632. Arrived New England 5 June 1632, with about sixty passengers (per John Winthrop, Journal I, pp. 80,81). Rev. Stephen Bachiler of Newton Stacy, County Hampshire, England; Mrs. Helen Bachiler; John Sanborn, William Sanborn, Stephen Sanborn. (no mention of Deborah and her three sons. Perhaps they were listed separately or came on another ship).\nThe crossing was difficult. They were at sea for eighty-eight days. At this time, Mr. Bachiler was seventy-one years of age.\nThe cargo Mr. Bachiler brought with him is as follows:\nFour hogsheads of peas,\nTwelve yards of cloth,\nTwo hundred yards of list,\nOaken furniture,\nand a collection box.\nRev. Stephen Bachiler's personal chair, now on loan at the New Hampshire Historical Society. [Editor's note: The Bachiler chair was on loan to the New Hampshire Historical Society from 1958 to 1986. The loan was returned to the heirs of the lender in 1986 at their request. The chair was then sold by the heirs and is now (2010) at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.\nUpon arrival in New England, Mr. Bachiler and his party proceeded to Saugus (now Lynn), Massachusetts, where his daughter, Theodate, and her husband, Christopher Hussey resided.\nOn his first Sunday in Lynn, Mr. Bachiler baptised four children. The first white child born in Lynn was Thomas Newhall, who was presented first for baptism. It has been said Mr. Bachiler put him aside and said \"I will baptise my own child first\", meaning Stephen, son of Christopher and Theodate Hussey.\nBefore Mr. Bachiler had been preaching four months at Lynn, he came under \"suspicion\" of having independent ideas, which he was not willing to yield to the dictates of others. The General Court passed the following order: \"3 October 1632, Mr. Bachiler is required to forebear exercising his gifts as a pastor and teacher publiquely in or pattent, unless it be to those hee brought with him, for his contempt for authority and until some scandles be removed.\" It was considered \"scandlous\" to conduct worship in any way not approved of by the rulers, but, after five months the prohibition was removed, and he was free to gather a church in Massachusetts.\nHe went on to preach in Massachusetts Bay Colonies, including ipswich, yarmouth and Newberry. At Ipswich, he was granted fifty acres of land. His stay there was short. During 1637-8, he settled in Yarmouth, about one hundred miles from Ipswich. At that time, he was seventy-six and he went all the way on foot in a very hard season.\nMr. Bachiler was a tall and sinewy man, with prominent features. Especially his nose, a very dark complexion, coarse black hair in his younger days, white in age, mouth large and firm, eyes as black as sloes, features long rather than broad, a strong clear voice, rather slow of motion and speech, simple in dress, obstinate and tenacious of his opinions to a marked degree, a powerful preacher drawing largely from scripture, impress the hearers with the uncommon power and sanctity of his sermons, strong in his friendships and in his hates. (From: \"The History of Hampton, N.H.\" by [Joseph] Dow).\nIn Newberry, he received a grant of land in 1638. It was soon after this, the General Court of Massachusetts gave him liberty to begin a plantation at Winnacunnet. It was at the request of Mr. Bachiler that the name of Winnacunnet was changed to Hampton. (Ref: New Hampshire Provincial Papers, Vol. I, Pg. 151) Soon after going there he sold his land in Newberry, and in 1639, as pastor at Hampton, he was granted three hundred acres of land for a farm, in addition to his house-lot.\nSometime during his stay in Hampton, his house burned and he suffered great loss. The greatest loss was his library. It was valued at two hundred pounds!\nThe church Mr. Bachiler organized at Hampton is now the oldest Congregational Society in New Hampshire and the second oldest continuous church fellowship in the United States. The original church was a frame building 40 feet by 22 feet. It was a plain building without chimney or stove, with pulpit, and seats, which were probably without backs, where men and women sat apart. (The first year they worshiped in a structure of logs.)\nThe period from 1638 to 1644 was a time of vast differences between Mr. Bachiler and his parishioners. He was prohibited from preaching. In fact, he was excommunicated!\nIn a letter addressed to Governor John Winthrop, he complained bitterly of Timothy Dalton, teacher at the Hampton church of which Mr. Bachiler was pastor:\n\"I see not how I can depart till I have, God forgive me, cleared and vindicated the cause and wrongs I have suffered of the church I yet live in; that is from the teacher (indeed) who hath done all and been the cause of all the dishonor that hath acrew'd to God, shame to myself, and griefs to all God's people. By his irregular proceedings and abuse of the power of the church in his hand by the major part cleaving to him, being his countrymen and acquaintance in old England.\n\"The teacher's act of his excommunicationing me would prove the foulest matter, both for the cause alleged of that excommunication, and the impulsive cause (even wrath and revenge), and also the manner of all his preceding throughout to the very end; and lastly, his keeping me under bonds.\"\nDuring April of 1647, Mr. Bachiler left Hampton and removed to Portsmouth, New Hampshire (then called Strawbery Banke). Winthrop wrote in his journals that Mr. Bachiler had to that time esteemed the pure life, but at the age of eighty, solicited the chastity of his neighbor's wife. Winthrop added that Mr. Bachiler then had \"a lusty comely woman as his wife\" (Helen).\nAll of Mr. Bachiler's children were by his first wife, Ann, who was possibly a sister of Rev. John Bate, who replaced Mr. Bachiler at Wherwell. Stephen Bachiler, Jr. called John Bate, Jr. \"Cousin\".\nA case in Star Chamber reveals that Stephen Bachiler still resided in Wherwell in 1614. George Wighley, a minister and an oxford graduate, accused Stephen Bachiler, his son (Stephen), and John Bate of Wherwell, clerk, and others of libelling him by means of verses ridiculing him. In the course of the complaint, Wighley quotes John Bate as saying he would keep copy of the poem \"As a monument of his Cousin's, the said Stephen Bachiler the younger, wit, who is in truth his cousin\". (Star Chamber Proc. James I, 297/25, 1614)\n(Stephen Bachiler, the younger enrolled at Oxford at the age of sixteen. He was expelled from Magdalene College, Oxford as the author of libellous verses.)\nMr. Bachiler's second wife was Christian Weare, widow. They were married at Abbots Ann, 2 March 1623/4.\nHis third wife was Helena Mason, widow of Rev. Thomas Mason. They were married 26 March 1627. She accompanied him to America, and was the \"lusty comely woman.\"\nShortly after his removal to Strawbery Banke, Mr. Bachiler's \"usual good sense\" seems to have deserted him. He was now a widower and obtained for a housekeeper, a young widow, whom he called \"an honest neighbor.\" He commented to John Winthrop that his neighbors seemed to think it unseemly -- so he married her, and the match was very unfortunate. It must have taken place when he was eighty-six or eighty-seven years old. She was sixty years younger than he was. Her name was Mary Bailey, widow of Robert Beedle, a fisherman/farmer, by whom she had two children -- a daughter, Elizabeth, and a son, Christopher.\nThe exact date of Stephen's marriage to Mary is unknown, because he performed the ceremony and failed to publish it, an omission for which he was fined ten pounds, later lowered to five pounds.\nMary began an affair with their young next door neighbor, George Rogers, and having been found out, she was subsequently sentenced by the Georgiana (York) Court to be flogged and branded with the letter \"A\". George Rogers also was to be flogged with forty stripes save one. Mary was to receive hers at the first Kittery Town Meeting six weeks after the birth of her child by George Rogers. The court also ordered Stephen Bachiler and Mary to live together as man and wife, or else! Instead, he took refuge with his grandson in Hampton.\nStephen Bachiler wanted to escape this woman, and England seemed the place to go, for political affairs in England had changed. The commonwealth had been established and Oliver Cromwell had become Lord Protector. It has been said that Mr. Bachiler and Cromwell had been friends. Whether that was true or not, his friends were now at the head of affairs in England now and his enemies had been defeated. His son-in-law, Christopher Hussey, helped fit him for the journey back to England in 1654.\nIn June 1654, the court ordered Thomas Hanscom, age 31, \"not to live with Mary Bachiler\". Further investigation reveals Mary's plight. At the October 1651 adultery trial, both she and Mr. Bachiler sought divorce, but were denied it. By that time, Hanscom was living with Mary, her legal husband was in England, where he remained until his death. Mary had found an attractive man from the Hanscom shipbuilding family, but was barred from legally marrying him. Finally, Mary was granted a divorce in 1656 (ironically, Stephen Bachiler was buried just seventeen days after Mary was granted the divorce). She told the court that Stephen had gone to England where he had taken another wife (absolutely no records confirm this), and she said she needed freedom to remarry for assistance in raising her two ailing children, and to conserve her estate. In 1657, she married Thomas Turner and became a respectable, successful, church-going woman, active in community affairs.\nA book written in 1910 states that Mary Magdalene Bailey Beedle Bachiler Turner was the woman upon whom Nathaniel Hawthorne patterned Hester Prynne in \"The Scarlet Letter\". The evidence is strong that Hester Prynne was a character derived from Hawthorne's extensive knowledge of the history of Kittery in colonial times.\nReports that Mr. Bachiler died in Hackney, Middlesex in 1660, aged one hundred years, appeared in print, but long ago were disproved. These were based partly on tradition that he lived to a great age, and partly on a hasty conclusion made in error by someone reading material published in the collections of the Massachusetts Historical Society, Vol. VIII - fourth series (Boston, Mass.: the Society, 1868, pp. 583-584. This error showing him dying in Hackney, aged one hundred years, was caught many years ago and corrected in \"additions and corrections\" to the Genealogical Dictionary (Supra 781).\nSome years ago, Philip B.Simnonds of Little Compton, Rhode Island (who discovered he had nine lines of descent from Stephan Bachiler), engaged the services of Brooks and Simpson, Ltd., of London, a highly reputable genealogical research firm, to discover more about Mr. Bachiler's origins and his death. The results were published by Rosemary E. Bachelor in Machias, Maine, in the Bachelor Family News-Journal, 4(April 1974): 5, and show that a very comprehensive search was made to verify previously known or surmised facts respecting Stephen Bachiler.\nNothing promising was found until they searched Boyd's Index to London Burials and found several Stephen Bachilers. One of these appeared to be the correct one, and they wrote: \"However, a 1656 entry at Allhallows Staining, London, states, \"Steeven Batchiller, Minister, that died at Robert Barber's, was buried in the new church-yard October 31, 1656.\" John Goode was parish rector 1654-1662, so this entry does not relate to the rector of the parish, and would appear to be our client's ancestor.\"\nGeorge Freeman Sanborn, Jr., from 1984, directed the English research carried out by Michael J. Wood, Esq. of London, and Mrs. Mary Rumsey of Alton, Hampshire. \"Among many other things I asked Mr. Wood to look up was The Court of Requests Record and transcribe it in its entirety. I also asked him to verify the Brooks and Simpson Report.\"\nAt The Guildhall Library in London, Mr. Wood read the earliest surviving parish register of Allhallows Staining (Ms. 17824) covering marriage, christenings, burial, etc., 1653-1710, and for burials only, 1653-1670. Since it is known from records in this country that Rev. Stephen Bachiler was still in New England in 1654, the date of commencement of the burial register of Allhallows Staining was not a problem. Mr. Wood also found the following: \"Steeven Batchiller, Minester that dyed att Robert Barber's was buryed in the new churchyard Octob 31th 1656.\"\n\"Because the alumni directories of both Oxford and Cambridge Universities reveal only two people named Stephen Bachiler (our Stephen Bachiler and his son), it is concluded that in all probability, the above record refers to the aged founder of Hampton, New Hampshire.\"\n\"The Churchwardens\" accounts for Allhallows Staining survive from a very early date, and reveal another bit of information (MS. 495613 Guildhall Library, London). Receipts included payment for burials, and the payments took the form of donations, poor relief, and the like, as well as routine expenses. On page 193, for the year 1656, Mr. Wood found:\n\"Receipts by Richard Pockley, Church Warden\nreceived for Stephen Bachiler's knell one shilling six pence.\"\nThe receipt of one shilling six pence for Rev. Bachiler's knell is in the midst of receipts described as for burials, but there is no mention of payment for burials only. It would thus seem (were this not contradicted by the Parish Record itself) that he was buried elsewhere, and only the tolling of the bell was performed for him at this church. Very few other entries are for knells.\nEvidently, then, Rev. Stephen Bachilder was buried in the church yard of Allhallows Staining on 31 October 1656, above ninety years.\nThe church of Allhallows Staining stood on the west side of Mark Lane near its northern end, just south of Fen-Church Street. The church was taken down in 1870 when the parish was united with the parish of St. Olave Hart Street. The tower of Allhallows staining built in the fifteenth century was preserved, and a small pleasant garden created around it.\nIn 1873, when the churchyard situated in Star Alley, Mark Lane was laid out as a garden, the old gravestones, with three exceptions, were covered with earth, but an accurate plan had been made of the church yard, indicating the gravestones in their several positions,s and a copy of all the legible inscriptions was annexed to the plan.

        "title": "Making space: New book is a visual tour of the workspaces of Memphis' top artists",
        "raw_content": "Mark Jordan | Wednesday, January 16, 2019\nArtist Brantley Ellzey in workspace, as part of \"Memphis Studios: A Visual Tour.\" (Murray Riss)\nPerhaps because he is self-admittedly \u201cnosey,\u201d perhaps because he spent so many years working in a field outside of his true passion for art, attorney-turned-artist Cecil Humphreys has a fascination for artists\u2019 studios, for the types of spaces they choose to inhabit and the ways they organize these spaces to facilitate their creations.\n\u201cWhenever I\u2019m looking at a book about artists, if there are pictures of their studio in there I\u2019ve always been fascinated and just studied the pictures,\u201d Humphreys said. \u201cThe things you can learn from looking at their studios. You can learn about their techniques, about how they practice their craft.\u201d\nNow Humphreys has given his interest a focus with the publication of Memphis Studios: A Visual Tour. With photographs by esteemed local photographer Murray Riss and interviews by Humphreys, the coffee table book captures in stunning detail the workspaces and habits of 29 of the region\u2019s top visual artists.\nArtists featured in the book are: Dale and Brin Baucum, Tootsie Bell, Yvonne Bobo, Jim Buchman, Nancy Chearis, Maysey Craddock, Tim Crowder, Carol DeForest, Wayne Edge, Beth Edwards, Brantley Elzey, Catherine Erb, Joyce Gingold, Pinkney Herbert, George Hunt, Andrea and Larry Lugar, John McIntire, Annabelle Meachum, Lester Merriweather, Carl E. Moore, Greely Myatt, Veda Reed, Jeanne Seagle, Dolph Smith, Carroll Todd, Tad Lauritzen Wright, and Humphreys.\nThe book was released in November just in time for the holidays.\n\u201cIt was one of the most popular local books of the holiday season,\u201d said Eddie Burton, general manager of the bookstore Novel, where he estimates they have sold more than 150 copies. \u201cOur customers would come in and ask for it by name.\u201d\nHumphreys\u2019 own studio is tucked away discretely \u2014 almost hidden \u2014 along a busy stretch of Highland Avenue in the University District, between the Goodwill store and Discount Muffler and Brake. Originally built as an icehouse, the garage-like commercial building was home to the AAA Safe & Lock Company when Humphreys bought it nearly 13 years ago.\nHumphreys grew up in the University District. He is the son of the late University of Memphis president Cecil C. Humphreys, Sr., namesake, among other things, of the law school from which the younger Humphreys graduated. The family lived in the school\u2019s old president\u2019s house at the corner of Patterson and Walker avenues and as a child young Humphreys would regularly hike down to the Highland Strip to buy comic books at the drug store. Even as an adult Humphreys doesn't live far from the district where his family has had real estate since the \u201960s.\nFor a decade, Humphreys worked to transform the old AAA space into a studio. When he retired three years ago from Memphis firm Glankler Brown after more than three decades of practicing law, it became his new full-time office. Now he keeps regular hours designing, casting, welding, and shipping the distinctive decorative bronze bowls and fixtures that have made him one of Memphis\u2019 most respected artists. With a small courtyard and plenty of storage for works like the giant planters that will soon dot the intersection of Highland and Walker as part of the University Neighborhoods Development Corporation\u2019s TIF-funded street improvements project, it is a large, rambling space where the artist labors alone save for an elusive rat that recently invaded.\n\u201cI can\u2019t ever imagine leaving here,\u201d said Humphreys, who has emerged in recent years as a driving force behind the UNDC, where he currently sits on the board. \u201cIt will probably eventually get filled up, but for now I have more room than I need.\u201d\nTo one side of his studio in a large room reserved for welding sits the last pallet of copies of Memphis Studios. The book\u2019s path to fruition was a long one. For years it existed only in Humphreys' head, but as he saw more and more Mid-South artists die, he became more committed to documenting the creative lives of the ones who remained.\n\u201cThere are a lot of artists who have died in the past 10, 15 years that it would be nice to go back and look at how they worked and what their studios were like,\u201d said Humphreys. \u201cI thought it was important to capture images for a lot of older artists in the city who might not be around 10 years from now.\u201d\nHumphreys contacted noted Memphis photographer Murray Riss, who immediately saw the value in the project and signed on.\n\u201cIt struck me as a great idea because I thought of it as a form of history that we were recording,\u201d said Riss.\nThe pair quickly agreed to feature a dozen of the area art scene\u2019s \u00e9minences grises like painter Veda Reed and painter/bookmaker Dolph Smith and then supplemented that list with younger established artists like Pinkney Herbert and Maysey Craddock, whose careers reflect not just the wide variety of visual arts in Memphis but also the diversity of workspaces.\n\u201cThe book was never intended in any way to reflect who I thought were the best or my favorite artists,\u201d said Humphreys. \u201cIt was about the spaces.\u201d\nPredictably, most of the artists lived and worked in Midtown Memphis, long the hub of the city\u2019s arts scene. But the project also took the pair Downtown; to East Memphis; Eads, Tennessee; West Memphis, Arkansas; and rural West Tennessee.\nSome of the spaces surprised them. When visiting esteemed multimedia artist Tim Crowder, who in manner and work would seem a model of nonconformity, Humphreys was bewildered to find himself in a very unassuming suburban cove.\n\u201cI never would have expected this from him; he seemed like a Midtown guy,\u201d said Humphreys. \u201cBut he had a very, very deep backyard, and sunk in the very back of this yard, surrounded by bamboo, was this studio that seemed of a different time and place.\u201d\nOnce they gained entry, Humphreys and Riss were struck by the generosity of all the artists.\n\u201cIt was amazing to me that from one artist to another they were so open,\u201d said Riss. \u201cThese are private spaces. That\u2019s their inner sanctum. That\u2019s where they do their private thinking, their private creating, their private expressing. And they let us in there \u2014 me with my camera \u2014 and they let me take my pictures and ask questions that on most other occasions would be imposing or breaking certain limits of decency.\u201d\nWith the book finally on shelves, Humphreys is hopeful that the project of documenting local artists\u2019 studios is not over. The original idea was to make this an ongoing archival project overseen by the Memphis College of Art, with any money raised by the book going to help shore up that flagging institution. But with news that MCA, where both Humphreys and Riss sit on the board of trustees, is closing in 2020, the future of the project is up in the air.\nMemphis Studios actually underlines how missed that institution will be. Almost every artist in the book, which is dedicated to the \u201cfaculty, staff, students, and supporters\u201d of MCA, has some sort of connection to the 83-year-old college.\n\u201cI don\u2019t think most people have realized how much it has contributed to the city,\u201d said Humphreys. \u201cI think the true value of the college is only going to be recognized after its gone.\u201d\nBut despite this looming loss, Humphreys says the experience of creating this book actually gave him guarded faith in the future of the arts scene in Memphis.\n\u201cI think the local arts scene is really strong,\u201d said Humphreys, pointing to things like a seemingly inexhaustible stock of affordable spaces ready to be turned into studios. \u201cThat\u2019s been a big factor, but I think the biggest factor is there are a lot of artists who were educated here who stayed here. When that is limited by the removal of probably the major art program in the city, I don\u2019t know how that will sustain itself.\u201d\nArts and Culture, Housing",

        "raw_content": "In April of 2011, Sigbritt Karlsson, Vice-Chancellor at the University of Sk\u00f6vde, authorized a study that was completed in the same year. The study was presented in the report Enterprises for the Future: A possible research profile at the University of Sk\u00f6vde? (Framtidens f\u00f6retagande: en m\u00f6jlig forskningsprofil vid H\u00f6gskolan i Sk\u00f6vde?). Enterprises for the Future was founded in November of 2011, and the research group was formed in 2012. During 2013, Enterprises for the Future participated in the research evaluation referred to as ARC13 and received the grades \u201cgood\u201d or \u201cvery good\u201d for the evaluated criteria. To view the self-evaluation report and the evaluation assessment, click here. During 2014, Future Enterprise was granted its position as one of five research specialities at the University of Sk\u00f6vde.\nIt is fundamental in all research to recognize that the future is always uncertain because of the various, and often unpredictable, ways governments, companies and organizations, managers and followers, customers and citizens, etc. interact. Because these actors connect in a multiplicity of ways, understanding the reality of those connections is a very complex task. Nevertheless, it is possible to identify action patterns that help us understand why some companies and organizations are more successful than others. Preparing for the future means being willing to innovate, to expand networks, to listen to customers, and even, in some cases, to develop new organizational philosophies and attitudes. In short, preparing for the future requires taking actions that are effective as well as flexible.\nA second principle is that the actors who have the ability and the courage to innovate drive development in society and the economy. Often much can be learned from the experiences of these actors \u2013 their successes as well as their failures.\nA third principle is that companies in local settings are part of the larger world in the sense that local and regional companies compete in the world economy \u2013 whether that competition comes from, for example, Asian berry pickers, Eastern European truck drivers, or international consultants. Company leaders and managers, therefore, often need to develop new mind-sets that secure and stabilize their customer relationships. This requires proactive engagement with activities through continual development in markets and on-going innovation in goods and services.\nOur mission, as researchers at Enterprises for the Future, is to understand the problems that companies and organizations face. Our goals are to conduct research that contributes to finding solutions for these problems and to help companies evaluate those solutions. Next we list the areas in which our specializations are best suited to achieve these goals:\nInternationalization processes\nMarketing programmes using social media and other digital platforms\nStrategic development in SMEs\nLeadership and followership\nOrganizational resilience (viability)\nSuccession planning and ownership transfer",

        "raw_content": "Anyone has ever thought about buying or selling a home knows that fluctuations in the economy in the market can have a dramatic impact on your success. According to McKee\u2019s 2016 housing predictions, this year will be the best year for selling your home that we\u2019ve seen in nearly a decade. With the economy in a relatively stable time and most individuals seeing more positive changes in the workforce, the best time to buy and sell a home quickly and easily is now. Of course you can change the outlook of your home by making a few simple updates that make it easier to appeal to potential buyers.\nUpdate the Paint Job/ Siding\nOne of the most affordable and beneficial changes that a homeowner can make before they sell a house is to update the paint or the siting of a home. Manufactured siding has become more popular in recent years because it is easy to maintain and easy to clean. A basic pressure washing is all it takes to wash off a years\u2019 worth of pollen, dirt, and debris and have your home looking like new again. If your home has older wooden siding and is painted, it is necessary to take the time to sand off the rough patches and repaint to give and even fresh looking coat.\nThe first thing the potential home buyers see when they look at your home is the outside. As they are driving up to where your home is located they are looking to see if it has that \u201cwow\u201d factor right from the start. Adding curb appeal to your home can be done affordably when you take basic steps to landscape the property, reseal the driveway, and add colorful shrubbery around the outside of your home. Additionally, some holdovers consider making updates to the doors and windows so that they look more modern and are therefore more appealing and worth the cost of the value of the home.\nStage Home Accordingly\nWhen someone is looking to buy a home they are looking to see the possibilities of what it could be. It is unlikely that there preferences into core are going to be the same as yours. For this reason, if you are interested in selling your home quickly then you should consider staging it. A seasoned real estate agent should be able to set you up with a home staging professional if you are unsure of what to do yourself. Generally this includes decreasing clutter all around the home, painting walls to neutral warm colors, and giving everything the look and feel of the space that is clean, pristine, and modern. The blank slate approach makes it easier for potential home buyers to envision your home as their future home.\nIf you\u2019re considering selling your home or buying a home, it\u2019s important to consult with a real estate professional to get a better understanding about current market trends. Learn about the neighborhoods which you are considering purchasing and aunt about the potential fluctuations in the market to come.",

        "raw_content": "Let me put my life in perspective for you: I work as an actor when I can; I have done for ten years. Most of the time, though, I have to work making coffee whilst desperately telling myself its just temporary. My wife earns as little as I do (she was an actress too), so don\u2019t think for one second I have a sugar mummy. We rent a small flat, work too hard, but are basically happy\u2026 if slightly unfulfilled. And free. Definitely free.\nAnd so, my fears about being a father were, I think, those that are unique to struggling artists. They keep you awake at night questioning yourself. I\u2019ll get to the crux of it. The fear that you will have to change career to provide a home for your wife and child that is suitable, a steady income. The nagging fear that maybe that\u2019s really what you should have been doing for the last 10 years: living a life which brings security.\nAn end to adventure, to living on the edge.\nThe end of being free?\nAmid all the congratulations and repetitive questions (Girl or boy? How many months? Are you now going to get a real career like a real grown up and stop wasting your life?) that I encountered since being a parent, Jonathan asked me to write about it, maybe shed some light on what it\u2019s like scraping along in this profession whilst also having a newborn. I said I would, then, realising my child was only just born, I decided to hold off writing because I didn\u2019t have enough experience to answer the question. I was merely on the edge of the abyss.\nBut now, being firmly ensconced in the abyss, I\u2019ve decided to have a go. I was going to write about the logistical problems, (and believe me, the whole thing is one big logistical problem) but as I began I realised how boring that would be and instead of typing my hands reared up and slapped me in the face in sheer defiance. This is when I realised that what I really wanted to explore was the very human want of security, the importance we put on money and how the decisions we make affect the child.\nI love acting (when I get the chance to do it) and it makes me truly happy. When I am working on a project I am more exciting, I am more intelligent, I am more. I\u2019m lucky to have a job I love so much. Sure, not really getting to do it and being paid peanuts is annoying but hey, swings and roundabouts. I\u2019ve still got my gourmet coffee making to keep me afloat. Because there\u2019s loads of money in that. Right? Wait, hang on! There\u2019s not. You see, I want my son to grow up seeing someone strive for what they are passionate about. For me this is paramount. I\u2019m sometimes passionate about my coffee and consider persuing it to other levels and, if I did, I\u2019d have no qualms about it as it was a path that I wanted to take. My son can do whatever he wants, but it has to be his decision and it has to be something that fulfils him. That\u2019s the point. He could be an accountant if he had a passion for numbers and I\u2019d be as happy as a pig in shit.\nI love my dad and have a strong relationship with him but when I was young he would leave before seven in the morning and get back after seven in the evening, which means he was on the periphery of my childhood, a beloved presence who worked hard at a job he had no passion for and was continually tired. He earned good money and gave me and my brothers a secure upbringing. He sees me now working menial jobs and trying to be an actor and I get the feeling sometimes that he thinks he\u2019s failed me somehow and that he wished I had a proper job. But he hasn\u2019t failed me. Watching him come home from a job he was not passionate about set me to thinking \u201cnot me. that\u2019s not for me\u201d. Watching him work himself so hard for \u2018security\u2019 set me free of it. I don\u2019t care about being rich; I won\u2019t deal in the fear that they peddle about security. Life is short and I\u2019m going to do what makes me happy (or try to) and I am going to make sure that my son sees that life is what you make it. Just do what makes you happy. Love and be loved.\nIf you are an actor and thinking of starting a family I would say this: forget about the money side as a worry or an excuse because that\u2019s all it will ever be, an excuse. Also, don\u2019t see it as a death knell to your career (successful or otherwise) because all it takes is perseverance and dedication and a belief that you are doing what you love. In my eyes, the child will grow up seeing that. There will be sacrifices to make, but you knew that anyway, right? The child may be the catalyst that eventually makes you decide to stop acting. Who knows? But it may have been a decision that was in the back of your mind anyway, chipping away. Just make sure that dosen\u2019t translate to: I had a child so I had to stop acting. That\u2019s good for nobody, least of all the child.\nPlease understand that all this is just opinion and above all, it does not mean that I don\u2019t take my responsibilities to my son seriously. Nothing I have said has to do with not working hard, being responsible or making sacrifices. He now comes first in my life. He has to, he\u2019s only little. I would do anything for him. But I will not compromise my dreams because, I fear, in the long run it will only lead to him compromising his.\nTo read more about more satisfying \u2018other jobs\u2019 check out the #MyOtherJob feed on Twitter.

Unless, of course, you count borrowing from family :) It seems one of us is always borrowing a couple dollars from another family member-whether they just forgot to bring their wallet, or simply don't have enough to cover that purchase. Thankfully, though, we're always more than happy to share, and I am grateful that I've never \"officially\" needed to get an advance.\nHowever, I thought I would share this for any of my readers who may possibly need a cash advance payday loan in the future. Although, obviously, I am not familiar with the normal rates and terms of cash loans, the Cash Store seems to have good options. With the ability to borrow up to $2,000-even if it is your first advance- and leaving the store with cash-in-hand the same day, in a pinch this may be a good option for you. There are Cash Store locations in various states, including Texas, Illinois and Washington.

        "title": "How's it Taste?: Curry Love",
        "raw_content": "Many months ago, I bought a bottle of curry powder at Sam's Club. I'd never really used curry before, but I'd been wanting to try it out and see how I liked it. So I promptly proceeded to let that bottle sit in my spice drawer for months, until a week or two ago, when I came across this awesome page of pumpkin recipes via Stumbleupon. One of the links was to a pumpkin curry soup recipe, so I tried it out at home and really, really liked it. Then I ended up making it for the soup of the day at work one day. Except I did what I usually do, and made way, way too much. Like gallons and gallons of it. (I tend to cook either just enough for one or two people, or enough for dozens. There is no in-between.) Not really a problem, I just threw the leftover soup in the freezer for another day. But then the next day I was thinking that I could take some of that leftover soup and mix it with some alfredo sauce, coat some chicken in the curry powder, and make a pumpkin curry chicken alfredo pasta for a daily special. Two birds with one stone- use up some of the soup, and have a new special to run. Sounded good to me! Well, I didn't end up using the soup, but what I came up with was pretty close, and maybe even better than the soup would have been anyway. It's a versatile curry-squash, hummus-like sort of dip, which I did use in the curry-squash-chicken-alfredo pasta, which came out super totally delicious! I don't have a specific recipe (though I'm going to try and come up with one sometime) only vague amounts based on what I remember doing. Here's how it all came about: when I went into the freezer to get out the leftover soup, I noticed that I had some butternut squash that was leftover from some butternut squash soup I had made awhile back. So I grabbed that as well, thinking I could use that up, too. And I also just happened to have some extra tahini and garbanzo beans in the cooler. Now, I know very little about Indian food, but those items seemed like they'd go good in whatever I was going to make, so I grabbed them and headed for the kitchen. Again, absolutely no recipe, but here's a list of ingredients-\nFrozen butternut squash cubes\nLooking good, no? So basically all I did was just throw all that into a food processor and mix away. Sadly, I didn't record any amounts of anything. But look how simple the ingredient list is! Stuff that anyone can get nowadays, so all you have to do is pretend that it's all salt and pepper and just 'add to taste,' right? Ok, possibly an oversimplification, but that's basically what I did. But here are some vague amounts based on my weak old-man's memory, if you're interested.\nApprox. 1 1/2-2 c. garbanzos\n1/3-1/2 c. tahini\n1-1/2 c. butternut squash\nSquirt of olive oil (2-ish Tbs.)\n1 can/2-ish cups coconut milk\nCurry powder to taste. I wasn't even trying to pay attention when I added that stuff, so I have no idea how much I used, but it was a lot.\nThe olive oil might not be necessary at all, I just added it because it felt like I was making hummus, and you always add olive oil to hummus. (Except that this was at work, so it was 80/20 soybean/olive oil. I hate that cheap stuff. I'd never use it at home.)\nSo that's the basic Curry Love 'recipe.' It's super, super tasty on it's own. And versatile too, because you can eat it straight (I sure did!) or with pita bread or crackers; you can add it to alfredo sauce (which I also did) and make some alfredo-curry chicken pasta. It has a slightly sweet taste to it, due to the butternut squash and coconut milk, so I'm sure it would go well in muffins or quickbreads. I have no doubt it would make an interesting pie. Sweet or savory, it's delicious either way. Try mixing it up and adding cloves, cardamom, nutmeg, fenugreek, turmeric, or whatever else strikes your fancy. Maybe try different types of curry powders. The stuff I used just said 'curry powder' and was the common yellow kind you see everywhere. Also, I used Tones brand, which I think is a pretty decent, though maybe not great, line of spices. I know I was really happy with this stuff, but I imagine I'd really be loving it if I'd used, say, Penzey's, or had taken whole spices and ground them myself.\nAt some point (when I get around to it) maybe in a day or two, I'll add the alfredo recipe in here that I used. It's pretty simple and easy to make, and is way better than most stuff you'd get out of a jar- though I'm not exactly an alfredo connoisseur, so I don't know how it compares to other recipes out there, but I think it's pretty decent.",

        "title": "Before You Fire That Problem Employee... : HR Article by Chris Young",
        "raw_content": "HOME \u00bb NEWS \u00bb ARTICLES \u00bb Before You Fire That Problem Employee...\nBefore You Fire That Problem Employee...\nA large number of organizations have an unwritten policy of hiring quickly and firing slowly, and justify such actions with comments such as, \u201cThe position just needs to be filled\u2026by anybody!\u201d or \u201cLet\u2019s give Bill a few more months, maybe he will come around\u2026\u201d Actions such as these consistently rob an organization of possibility as hasty hiring decisions typically put the wrong people in the wrong seats within an organization where they are allowed to perform below expectations and sap an organization of productivity and morale. I have always felt it best to hire slowly - waiting patiently to identify the ideal candidate for a position, and fire quickly \u2013 eliminating poorly fit problem employees before they are allowed to fester within an organization. While I stand by this philosophy, I thought it would be beneficial to offer a few things to consider before pulling the trigger and terminating a problem employee. 1. Have performance expectations been clearly outlined and is the problem employee aware of them? Often the poor performance of an employee can be attributed to a failure by management to clearly establish and communicate performance objectives to the employee. 2. How well does the employee fit his or her position? Has the position been thoroughly analyzed to determine which type of personality traits are needed for a good fit in the position? The position should be analyzed to determine what behaviors the ideal employee should display, what values should motivate their behavior, and what personal skills are needed for success in the position. If the employee does not possess the right behaviors, motivation, and skills, chances are that no amount of coaching or encouragement will bring about the desired results. 3. Could the employee provide value and be better off in a different position or department within your organization? Given that many performance issues arise as the result of an employee who is simply not fit for the position they were hired for or promoted to, it is wise to carefully consider if he or she could be a valued contributor in another role within your organization. Failure in one role does not guarantee failure in a different role, and it may be more cost effective to reorganize than to rehire. Many organizations have the right talent; it is just not aligned in the right positions to achieve an organization\u2019s goals. 4. Is a conflict between the employee and his or her manager prompting the push towards termination? Conflict between a manager and those they supervise is common. Managers often blame the employee for the conflict, labeling them as unruly, unmanageable, or uncooperative, when the real source of the problem is likely a communication problem caused by vastly different behavioral styles. In many cases awareness of the issue and understanding how a particular individual prefers to communicate can greatly reduce the level of conflict between and employee and his or her manager. The list above is by no means exhaustive. There are numerous issues that must be taken into consideration and documentation to perform before a prudent decision can be made to terminate an employee. However, in my experience the four items highlighted above are consistent causes of substandard performance that are often overlooked when the decision is made to terminate an employee. If you have addressed and documented the issues above and the team member is still posing problems, you know what you need to do\u2026 Help this individual find more meaningful employment elsewhere.",

One of the Senate\u2019s medical doctors, Barrasso keeps a close and informed eye on the rollout of Obamacare and has a sharp assessment of the river of waivers rolling out of Obamaland. He also knows the score on Medicare, which he summarized here:\nHH: Now in terms of the Medicare debate as well, obviously in the last couple of days, we had Newt Gingrich and Paul Ryan shooting at each other, not good for any kind of Medicare reform. What\u2019s your opinion on that, John Barrasso?\nJB: Well, you know, I\u2019m not going to endorse or criticize any of the candidates running for president or my side of the aisle. I will tell you that Paul Ryan has come up with a responsible approach to a significant problem. We\u2019ve learned Friday from the Medicare actuaries that Medicare is going to be broke, actually bankrupt, in about 13 years. They\u2019re spending more, more\u2019s going out this year than is coming in, it is unsustainable, it\u2019s\u2026and this is going to break the bank of the country. You know, when they set up Medicare in 1965, men, average life expectancy was in the mid-60s, women in the early 70s. Now, men are living to the late 70s, and women to the early 80s. So at the same time they set this up in 1965, all of us baby boomers, we were teenagers, so that the number crunch has come. I think about four million Americans a year are being added to the Medicare rolls. You know the worst of this? President Obama, when he forced through this health care law?

        "raw_content": "Puppy killing stirs outrage in Turkey as politicians vouch for new animal rights law\nOne last look to humanity... (Photos: Do\u011fan News Agency)\nThe horrible killing of a puppy has caused outrage in Turkey, with politicians voicing support for a new law to prevent violence against stray animals, while an animal rights organization has called on authorities to find those responsible for the incident.\nA puppy was found on June 13 by passersby in a wooded area in the Sapanca district of the western province of Sakarya, fighting for its life as four of its feet had been cut off.\nLocals hospitalized the dog, which succumbed to its injuries two days later, despite an emergency operation in Istanbul.\nThe operator of a heavy duty vehicle working in the area was detained, announced Sakarya Chief Prosecutor L\u00fctfi Dursun on June 16. Following his testimony, the operator was arrested by a court order on June 17 on charges of killing the dog, Do\u011fan News Agency reported.\nDr. Berktu\u011f \u00c7ift\u00e7i, who operated on the dog, said its paws had been cut off by an axe or a similar man-made tool.\nThe puppy\u2019s death triggered public outrage as thousands of social media users called on authorities to find and punish the suspected assailant.\nLocal police, the Sapanca Municipality and Sakarya Metropolitan Municipality all mobilized forces to identify the person.\n\u201cA so-called human has caused the pain and the death of this puppy. We will do everything to find him,\u201d Stray Animals Society (SOHAYKO) chairman Yasin Y\u0131lmaz tweeted on June 15.\nSakarya Governor \u0130rfan Balkanl\u0131o\u011flu announced on June 16 that it was not yet clear whether the incident was the result of a deliberate attack against the animal or the result of an accident.\n\u201cOur initial findings suggested a heavy duty vehicle could have chopped off the dog\u2019s feet. Even if the driver did not see the dog, we will still do what is necessary, because he should have been sure that there were no living beings around when he was working on the construction. We are still investigating the issue,\u201d the governor said.\nMeanwhile, several animal lovers have announced they would award whoever helped authorities to identify the suspected assailant responsible for the puppy\u2019s death with monetary prizes.\nTurkish songwriter Sinan Ak\u00e7\u0131l said he would pay 50,000 Turkish Liras ($10,500) and Turkish composer Ozan \u00c7olako\u011flu said he would pay 10,000 liras ($2,100) to anyone who identifies the suspect.\nPoliticians condemn \u2018atrocity\u2019\nTurkish politicians have also intervened, with several of them calling for more severe punishments in cases of violence against stray animals.\nPresident Recep Tayyip Erdo\u011fan on June 16 vowed to boost animal protection laws in the country. \u201cProtecting animals is not only a task, but also part of our belief, our humanity. Animals are not a commodity, but a living being,\u201d Erdo\u011fan said in a series of tweets.\nErdo\u011fan also said a new ministerial bill for animal rights would be prioritized following the June 24 elections.\n\u201cIn 2004, we passed the Animal Protection Act [No. 5199], the first independent law to protect animals. We will also prioritize the government\u2019s draft, which contains new sanctions on animal rights, in the new period,\u201d he said.\n\u201cI condemn barbarians who have killed a living being this way. The first job of parliament when it resumes work will be to pass a new law, which stipulates jail sentences up to 10.5 years for such incidents,\u201d the ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP) MP L\u00fctfiye Selva \u00c7am tweeted on June 16.\n\u00c7am stressed that the bill, which also stipulates jail sentences up to two years for those who make animals fight each other, would abolish the legal distinction between stray animals and animals with owners.\nPresidential spokesperson \u0130brahim Kal\u0131n also tweeted on June 16, condemning the incident and calling for the passing of the new law.\n\u201cThe person who has committed this atrocity will not be allowed to get away with it. Shame on you!\u201d said main opposition Republican People\u2019s Party (CHP) presidential candidate Muharrem \u0130nce in a tweet.\nNationalist Movement Party (MHP) chair Devlet Bah\u00e7eli, on the other hand, vowed to improve Turkey\u2019s Animal Protection Law and also to include crimes against animals in Turkish Penal Law.\n\u201cI just cannot forget the photo [of that puppy]. We will punish anyone who has killed an animal or a human being,\u201d Bah\u00e7eli tweeted on June 16.\n\u2018A landmark change of perspective\u2019\nThe new government bill was sent to the parliament in April, proposing animals in Turkey \u201care not property,\u201d in a landmark change of perspective in Turkish law.\nThose who dare to torture animals will receive four months to three years in prison according to the new bill.\nIf the perpetrator violates the freedoms of multiple animals in the same instance, his or her sentence will be increased by one and a half times, rising from six months to four-and-a-half years in jail, according to the draft.\nThe legal status of animals has been a much debated topic in Turkey but is still not set in stone.\nNumerous news reports have surfaced over the years of stories where animals have been tortured, tormented or killed but the perpetrator left with minor penalties.\nFor example, in August 2017, a man who killed a stray dog by deliberately running over stray dogs in the Mediterranean province of Antalya was issued only an administrative fine of 1,097 Turkish Liras and his driver\u2019s license was suspended.\nstray dogs, stray animals, violence, violence against animals, Turkey",

        "title": "BLACK MAP: Guitarist Mark Engles On Charting New Musical Territory - Icon Vs. Icon",
        "raw_content": "Black Map. A clean slate, an open-ended set of directions with no boundaries or guidelines tying you to any predetermined path? Or a bleak, morbid symbol of nothing-good-to-come, no matter which journey you choose? Maybe a little bit of both? Dystopian themes and dark lyrical images sit atop bombastic, surging rhythms and melodies\u2013suggesting all paths are possible, but you may lose a few things along the way. This is Black Map (guitarist Mark Engles, singer/bassist Ben Flanagan and drummer Chris Robyn).\nHailing from the San Francisco Bay Area, Black Map is a perfect sonic intersection of its members\u2019 pasts. In 2010, Ben Flanagan found his anthem-heavy pop band The Trophy Fire taking some time off from the road, and simultaneously found himself becoming fast friends with Mark Engles of the internationally popular experimental art rock band, dredg. It wasn\u2019t long before Flanagan was touring the world with dredg as a side guitarist/vocalist. The two friends became inseparable, sharing their affinity for \u201890s rock bands that melded the heavy and the beautiful, such as Northern California cult icons, Far (which just so happened to be the former band of their friend, Chris Robyn). With Far as a major influence, Engles and Flanagan began writing the heaviest, most powerful music they could muster, while still keeping the strong sense of melody their other projects are known for. The duo took some of their early ideas to Robyn and when the three men began playing music together in the same room, the synergy and spark was instantaneous. With the touring schedule for dredg not nearly as busy as in the past, and with Robyn stepping down as a touring member of Crosses (side project of Deftones\u2019 Chino Moreno and Far\u2019s Shaun Lopez), Black Map was able to find time to record their forthcoming DRIVER EP (out February 25), and will hit the road in 2014.\nThe group unceremoniously released their debut single \u201cI\u2019m Just The Driver\u201d on YouTube in November to overwhelming response, and were soon featured on BBC Radio 1\u2019s \u201cRock Show\u201d as one of their \u201cBest Tracks of 2013.\u201d Jason Price of Icon Vs. Icon recently caught up with guitarist Mark Engles to discuss his musical roots, the formation of Black Map, the creation of their ambitious new EP, \u2018Driver,\u2019 and much more!\nMark Engles\nI always like to give our readers a look back at an artist\u2019s earlier years. How did music first come into your life?\nGoing way back, my Dad always had old country/western music on when I was growing up. It wasn\u2019t like this new crappy stuff but the old classics from Willie, Johnny, Merle and all that. Then my old brother always had a huge influence on me. As I got a little older, he started giving me punk and metal mixed tapes on cassette. It really started from there. There was a drum set in my house from a very young age that my brother used to practice on. That was my first instrument. I guess I always had some natural rhythm and while he was playing drums, I would grab the guitar. It was a cheap acoustic at first. As I got older, I met some friends at school and the first real musicians I met were the guys that ended up being in Dredg. We were probably thirteen or fourteen years old at the time and met each other after school through sports. There weren\u2019t many other kids at our school that were listening to the same stuff, like I said, punk and metal stuff. It just seemed natural and we went from there.\nWho were some of the bigger influences that you gravitated to and helped shape you at that early age?\nEarly on, I guess it was some of the standards like Black Sabbath, Iron Maiden, Misfits and things like that. This was back in the early 90s. From there, I got into heavier metal stuff like Sepultura and things like that. As I got older, I diversified even more and started listening to things that weren\u2019t even metal as my tastes grew. It really all stemmed from guitar rock in the beginning and I branched out from there.\nWas there a there a particular catalyst that made you want to pursue music as your career?\nI can\u2019t say there was one moment in particular. I always just felt it was something that came naturally to me. It was always so much fun and it became my passion. I feel like as the years go by, as long as you are pushing forward and the goals you have keep getting bigger and bigger and those goals started to come to fruition, that is was the right thing to do. If I hadn\u2019t done it, I probably would have ended up not being able to sleep at night! [laughs]\nIt certainly is working out great for you so far! That leads me to your latest project, Black Map. How did this project come about initially?\nBlack Map \u2013 \u2018Driver\u2019 EP\nBlack Map came about from me being great friends with Ben Flanagan, the singer and bass player. We had lightly spoken over beers or just hanging out. We were, first and foremost, friends from the San Francisco music scene. We had just loosely talked, saying \u201cLet\u2019s someday do something.\u201d It wasn\u2019t until Chris Robyn from Far showed an interest as well. He hadn\u2019t had a project in a while and was itching to do something. I grew up listening to Far; they were another big influence on me when I was younger. Of course, walking into a room to play with one of your favorite drummers is always a good thing. It all sprung from loose discussions. We knew we had a basic direction and wanted it to be straight ahead rock. Especially for Flanagan and I, both of our bands really try to diversify from album to album, which is great but it felt natural to me to go back and do something where we weren\u2019t thinking as hard and doing what was innate to us.\nWhat do you other band mates, Ben Flanagan and Chris Robyn, bring to the table for a project like this?\nChris, as I said, has always been one of my favorite drummers. Dredg and Far used to play shows back in the day and I was always a fan. He is always so direct with his drumming. He is a very heavy hitter but he has a great groove. I used to always love to watch him play and it is so much fun to play with him. I have always been a fan of Ben Flanagan\u2019s lyrics and melody choices. You can hear all three of our older bands in this new band but it is turned up a couple of notches, if you will. You will hear the Far, the Dredg and The Trophy Fire but it is pushed further. Flanagan did a great job with his vocals; where as The Trophy Fire is a little softer than this. He is pushing his voice and getting a little more gruff with it, which is awesome! I think it is cool that you can hear the influences but it one notch more too, where it becomes more than the sum of its parts.\nDid you have any goals or expectations to achieve with this project when you first started out to create this EP?\nThis EP was created mainly to get the music out there. We have only played a handful of shows, so it is to get it out there to the universe of the interwebs, if you will, and make sure people know what we sound like. Coming from other bands and having so many friends in the industry, we were getting a lot of \u201cWhat do you sound like?\u201d This EP is just to give everybody a taste of what we felt where the first four solid songs we have. We will have almost an album\u2019s worth of music ready soon but we really wanted to get these songs out there to let people know what we they are like and not have people read a review and guess. Once we get this out and about, the shows will start coming and we will set our sights on a full length release down the road.\nWhat can you tell us about the writing process for this album? Did you approaching differently than you have in the past or with other projects?\nThe first four songs on the EP are probably a little more along the lines of things that Ben and I had around; stuff that we wouldn\u2019t be using for Dredg or Trophy Fire. It was just stuff that wouldn\u2019t fir those styles and existed in really raw forms. For me, there are a lot of riffs on the EP that were just riffs on the computer and then taken in the room and molding it with human beings to mold it into something that is more real. After those first four, now we are writing all together, so the songs are molding and evolving into a more complex and heavier spot. Being in a room with human beings, you can through in so much more stuff than with a rigid skeleton of a song that is on a computer. I think both ways of writing are great and both have their own advantages. I think these first four songs are more straight ahead and the rest of the material which should be out later this year or early next year will be heavier and more complex. The writing is always going to evolve when you are in a new band and are still feeling things out.\nYou released \u201cI\u2019m Just The Driver\u201d as the first single. What was it about this song that made you select it as the lead-off track? We just felt it had a little of each of the different styles that we thought this band could bring and sometimes you just look at what will make the best first impression. I think all fours songs have something about them that make each great but that song seemed like the most natural first impression we could give when we were asked what Black Map was like. When we get that question, this is the song I would like to show people.\nIn starting up a new band and putting this new music together, is there an obstacle or challenge you feel you have faced or overcome?\nNo, not necessarily. Musically it is almost too easy for us! We are just having such a good time getting in a room; we don\u2019t over think it. We aren\u2019t thinking to hard song to song or from part to part. It is more of a situation where if it feels good, go for it! That isn\u2019t always the case, especially when you have been playing for a long time. On the back end of things there is always going to be difficulties with timing and we aren\u2019t eighteen anymore, so we can\u2019t just jump in the van and tour the country. We do definitely plan on touring soon. I guess the main challenge is being able to balance our personal lives with playing rock \u2018n\u2019 roll, ya know? But that comes with the territory!\nThis thing is just getting started but what have you\u2019re learned from your time working with Ben Flanagan and Chris Robyn?\nI would go back to what I just mentioned, which is me being guilty of over thinking stuff when it comes to writing. Black Map is the first project in a long time where I really have gone back to something that feels more natural and feels like I am in my bedroom as a younger man, not over analyzing. Chris, as a drummer, just wants to go and rip in! It is something that feels very natural!\nWhat you are thinking in regard to video releases? Any plans in the works?\nYeah, I think we would like to a video for at least one or two of songs on the EP. Nothing is set in stone yet but we are definitely working on it and would like to do that soon.\nLooking back on your career so far, how do you feel you have evolved as a musician along the way?\nI guess I have just relaxed a lot! [laughs] When you are younger you tend to stress, overanalyze and be a bit more antsy about things. I have definitely relaxed a lot and realized if you are confident in what you do; let it be what it is. That is probably the main thing I have learned.\nWhat do you consider some of you musical milestones at this point in your career?\nThere are definitely a handful. I feel as you evolve, your goals tend to grow as you grow. Along the way, things like being able to sell out The Fillmore in San Francisco was huge. I will always remember that! Another big thing was to be able to play internationally; places like Europe and Australia, is something I take very humble and truly appreciate. It is amazing to be able to take your music around the world. Being able to share the stage with certain musicians who you were influenced by is any great experience. Those are all small goals but I feel like they build as you get older.\nWhat do you have on your short list as far as goals you have for yourself musically?\nThere are always other countries I want to see and I would love to play Asia! I think with this project, I think just getting on the road is a short term goal I am eager to accomplish, as well as doing a full length release and build a fan base, I hope we are able to go out with some bands we respect and that fit our style. There are always bigger goals with bands like Dredg that I am still working with. I am looking forward to continuing pushing forward but it feels good to have something fresh and new to start over again with. You are going through the same steps but you have a lot more experienced going through these steps with a new band.\nWhat other bands out there have peaked your interest lately?\nThere is always something new! I love St. Vincent and think she has done some phenomenal stuff with the last two records. Elbow has always been a favorite of mine. The new Queens of The Stone Age record is just mind-blowing! Red Fang and The National\u2019s new record are definitely in the rotation!\nWhat is the best piece of advice you can pass along to aspiring musician looking to make a career in the industry in the current climate?\nThat is a great question. Be honest. Don\u2019t fall down the trap of being something you are mot. It sounds clich\u00e9 but it is true. You really have to enjoy it or you are not going to be happy. Just get what you are doing out there! Play a lot, put music out and don\u2019t over think it!\nI want to thank you very much for your time today, Mark. The new music is very exciting and I can\u2019t wait to see what you have in store for us in the years to come!\nThanks for supporting us!

        "raw_content": "Home Arts/Entertainment New in Theaters: The Front Runner\nIn the current political climate with politicians clashing with journalists and media members on a daily basis, it seems like the perfect time to tell the story Gary Hart, the 1988 presidential candidate whose campaign was destroyed when the media found out he had been having an extra-marital affair. Director Jason Reitman, whose first film, 2005\u2019s Thank You for Smoking, delved into the world of political lobbyists, raises a lot of tough and relevant questions with The Front Runner, about the three weeks in which Hart\u2019s campaign plunged off a cliff.\nHugh Jackman plays Hart, the runner-up for the Democratic nomination in the 1984 presidential election who is the immediate front runner to run against George H.W. Bush in 1988. Known as the candidate with a lot of compelling ideas for the future of the country and who became the popular pick among younger voters, Hart already had a big lead in the Democratic race when the events of this film take place. He was also a man who guarded his privacy carefully and believed his personal life was off-limits to the public. Unfortunately for him, this belief was not shared by the public and in the dawn of the 24/7 news cycle era, he was about to be exposed.\nThe downfall began when a Miami Herald reporter received an anonymous call from a woman who says her \u201cfriend\u201d had an affair with the politician and asking if they would pay for photos. The journalist dismisses her at first because Hart\u2019s schedule says he will be somewhere different from where she says he will be, but when he receives notice of an unexpected change in the Senator\u2019s schedule, he recruits a co-worker and photographer to help him pursue the story. They stake out Hart\u2019s residence and witness a woman being escorted into the home. The question of whether or not their stakeout was ethical or not became irrelevant after Hart dared another inquisitive reporter to follow him around, suggesting that he would find nothing but boredom. This dare went public and to the press, that was an invitation\u2014an invitation that would destroy Hart\u2019s political career.\nThe Front Runner is based on the book by journalist Matt Bai, who collaborated on the screenplay with Jay Carson and director Jason Reitman. The screenplay is a witty and clever examination of the relationship between the media and politicians. Many of its most memorable pieces of dialogue not only apply perfectly to the story the script is telling, but could also be directly referring to current events. Hart\u2019s exclamation that \u201cworld change can only happen when young people are engaged\u201d can be seen as a call to action for today\u2019s youth and it is easy to identify who the movie is referring to when he admonishes the media, saying that he fears the day when America has the leader it deserves.\nWhether or not the movie treated Hart\u2019s character too harshly or not harsh enough might depend on the viewer\u2019s personal politics, but even though the movie does want you to identify with Hart and therefore paints him in a somewhat more sympathetic light, it doesn\u2019t let him off the hook for his bad behavior either. When he is asked a direct question and delivers a\u2014to quote another film about political journalism\u2014\u201cnon-denial denial,\u201d the movie makes it clear that we should be disappointed by him, even embarrassed. That said, it is difficult not to side with Hart when he is played by such a charismatic actor as Hugh Jackman.\nJackman\u2019s performance as Hart is remarkable. He perfectly portrays both the confidence of the Hart who knows what Americans need and the befuddlement of the man who doesn\u2019t understand what Americans want. He is surrounded by an impressive supporting cast including Reitman favorite J.K Simmons as his campaign manager, Vera Farmiga as his wife, and Sara Paxton as the woman whom all the fuss is about. And the cast of journalists and campaign workers are filled out nicely by a group of where-have-I-seen-them-before actors.\nThe Front Runner is not only a well-directed, entertaining film with a great cast, but it is also an extremely relevant movie that asks a lot of questions for audiences to be discussing well after the credits roll. The Hart scandal marked a direct change in how politicians\u2019 personal lives are viewed through the media, something that is only further emphasized in today\u2019s culture in which everyone has a social medial platform for their opinions. That relevance makes this a political drama that is definitely worth your time.\nThe Front Runner opens today at the Cinemark Lincoln Square in Bellevue.\nTHE FRONT RUNNER \u2013 International Trailer",

        "raw_content": "Insurance Law News - June 2010\nIn Light of \"Severability\" Clause, Exclusion for Intentional Act of \"An\" Insured Only Applies to Particular Insured Who Commits Such Act\nAutomobile Policy \"Step-Down\" Provisions Limiting Coverage for Permissive Users Are Valid if They Are Conspicuous, Plain and Clear\nCourt of Appeal Enforces Exclusion in Legal Malpractice Policy for Claims Made by Entities That Are Owned or Managed by the Insured\n< Return to News page\nThe California Supreme Court has held that based on a policy\u2019s \u201cseverability\u201d clause, an exclusion for the intentional act of \u201can\u201d insured only applied to the particular insured who committed the intentional act, and did not apply to another insured who was merely negligent in failing to prevent the intentional act. (Minkler v. Safeco Ins. Co. of America (2010) WL 2402973)\nScott Minkler (Minkler) filed a lawsuit against David Schwartz (David) and David\u2019s mother, Betty Schwartz (Betty). In his complaint, Minkler alleged that beginning in 1987 and continuing for several years thereafter, he had been sexually molested by David in Betty\u2019s home. Minkler further alleged that Betty had negligently failed to prevent David\u2019s acts.\nDuring the time of the alleged molestations, Betty was the named insured on a series of homeowners policies issued by Safeco Insurance Company of America (Safeco). Betty\u2019s son David also qualified as an insured on the policies. The policies specifically excluded coverage for bodily injury \u201cwhich is expected or intended by an insured or which is the foreseeable result of an act or omission intended by an insured.\u201d However, the policies\u2019 \u201cConditions\u201d section contained a \u201cseverability\u201d clause which stated that \u201c[t]his insurance applies separately to each insured. This condition will not increase our limit of liability for any one occurrence.\u201d\nDavid and Betty tendered Minkler\u2019s lawsuit to Safeco for defense and indemnity. Relying on the policies\u2019 exclusion for intentional acts of \u201can\u201d insured, Safeco refused to defend either David or Betty against Minkler\u2019s lawsuit.\nThereafter, Minkler obtained a default judgment against Betty for over $5 million. Betty assigned her claims against Safeco to Minkler, and Minkler agreed not to enforce the judgment against Betty\u2019s personal assets.\nMinkler (as Betty\u2019s assignee) then filed a bad faith lawsuit against Safeco in state court. Minkler alleged that the Safeco policies were ambiguous because the policies\u2019 \u201cseverability\u201d clause stated that \u201cthis insurance applies separately to each insured,\u201d while at the same time the policies\u2019 \u201cintentional act\u201d exclusion purported to bar coverage for all claims arising from intentional acts of \u201can insured.\u201d Minkler thus alleged that the Safeco policies did not bar coverage for Betty\u2019s alleged negligence in failing to prevent David\u2019s intentional acts of molestation. Safeco removed the lawsuit to federal district court.\nThe federal district court ruled in favor of Safeco. The district court found that despite the policies\u2019 \u201cseverability\u201d clause, the policies\u2019 exclusion for intentional acts of \u201can\u201d insured precluded coverage for both an insured who commits an intentional act and any other insured who might only be negligently liable for such act. In other words, the intentional act of any one insured (such as David) barred coverage for all other insureds (such as Betty).\nMinkler appealed to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. During the pendency of the appeal, the Ninth Circuit requested the California Supreme Court to address the interplay between the policies\u2019 \u201cseverability\u201d clause and the policies\u2019 exclusion for the intentional acts of \u201can\u201d insured. The Supreme Court agreed to address that issue.\nThe California Supreme Court held that the Safeco policies\u2019 exclusion for intentional acts of \u201can\u201d insured, read in conjunction with the policies\u2019 \u201cseverability\u201d clause, created an ambiguity which had to be construed in favor of coverage. According to the Supreme Court, while an exclusion for the intentional acts of \u201can\u201d insured would normally mean that the intentional act of one insured bars coverage for all insureds, a severability clause stating that \u201c[t]his insurance applies separately to each insured\u201d reasonably implies a contrary result. Given that ambiguity, Betty would \u201creasonably have expected Safeco\u2019s policies \u2026 to cover her separately for her independent acts or omissions causing such injury or damage, so long as her conduct did not fall within the policies\u2019 intentional acts exclusion, even if the acts of another insured contributing to the same injury or damage were intentional.\u201d\nIn short, given the policies\u2019 \u201cseverability\u201d clause, the exclusion for intentional acts of \u201can\u201d insured did not bar coverage for Betty\u2019s alleged negligence in failing to prevent David\u2019s molestation of Minkler.\nMinkler is an extremely important case. In several prior decisions, the California Courts of Appeal had interpreted an exclusion for intentional acts of \u201can\u201d insured (as opposed to \u201cthe\u201d insured) to mean that the intentional act of any one insured would bar coverage for all other insureds under the same policy. However, the prior cases did not specifically deal with what effect a \u201cseverability\u201d clause might have on such an exclusion. In Minkler, the Supreme Court held that if the policy does contain a \u201cseverability\u201d clause which states that the policy applies \u201cseparately to each insured,\u201d the severability clause renders ambiguous an exclusion for intentional acts of \u201can\u201d insured. As Minkler indicates, that ambiguity will be resolved in favor of the insured. In reaching that conclusion, the Minkler court rejected the rule followed by a majority of jurisdictions and instead adopted the rule followed in a minority of jurisdictions.\nThe Minkler court noted that an insurer can avoid the problem simply by changing the language of the severability clause from \u201c[t]his insurance applies separately to each insured\u201d to \u201c[t]he limits of liability of this policy apply separately to each insured.\u201d According to the Court, such language would make it clear that the severability clause\u2019s purpose is merely \u201cto extend the full individual indemnity limits to each person among several insureds under the same policy,\u201d and \u201cnot to make exclusions from coverage individual rather than collective.\u201d\nThe Minkler court was also careful to stress that its reasoning and conclusion were aimed at the \u201cspecific circumstances of this case, which involves the interplay between a severability clause and an exclusion for the intentional acts of \u2018an\u2019 insured\u2026.\u201d The Court emphasized that its conclusion in this case \u201cdoes not mean a severability clause necessarily affects all exclusions framed in terms of \u2018an\u2019 or \u2018any\u2019 insured.\u201d Rather, \u201ceach exclusion applicable to \u2018an\u2019 or \u2018any\u2019 insured must be examined individually, and in context, to determine the effect a severability clause like the one at issue here might have on its operation.\u201d\nIn any event, after Minkler, it is clear that a standard \u201cseverability\u201d clause will limit an insurer\u2019s ability to rely on an exclusion for intentional acts of \u201can\u201d insured to deny coverage for an \u201cinnocent insured.\u201d\nThe California Court of Appeal has held that an automobile liability policy\u2019s \u201cstep-down\u201d provision, which reduced liability limits for permissive users, was \u201cconspicuous, plain and clear\u201d and thus limited the coverage that was available to a permissive user. (Dominguez v. Financial Indem. Co. (2010) 183 Cal.App.4th 388)\nLucia Dominguez (Dominguez) was allegedly injured in an automobile accident caused by Ningju Qui (Qui). The vehicle Qui was driving was owned by, and used with the permission of, Michael Welch (Welch). Welch was the named insured on an auto policy issued by Financial Indemnity Company (FIC), and Qui as a permissive user also qualified as an insured on the FIC policy.\nThe FIC policy\u2019s declaration page stated that the bodily injury liability limits were $100,000 each person and $300,000 each accident. However, the policy\u2019s face sheet, table of contents and liability section all referred to a \u201cReduction in Coverage\u201d on page 7 of the policy. On page 7, under a heading labeled \u201cREDUCTION IN COVERAGE,\u201d the policy limited coverage for permissive users to the minimum limits required by the applicable financial responsibility laws. In addition, the policy\u2019s insuring agreement stated that \u201c[t]he limits shown on the Declarations page are subject to reduction to the state mandatory minimum of $15,000 each person, $30,00 each accident \u2026 where there is a permissive user of the \u2018insured vehicle.\u2019\u201d\nDominguez filed an action against Qui and Welch for her injuries arising out of the accident. While that action was pending, Dominguez also filed an action for declaratory relief action against FIC to obtain a determination as to what limits were available to the permissive user, Qui. FIC prevailed in the declaratory relief action, with the trial court concluding that the \u201cstep-down\u201d permissive user limitation was sufficiently \u201cconspicuous, plain and clear.\u201d Dominguez appealed.\nThe Court of Appeal affirmed. Insurance Code \u00a711580.1 (b)(4) provides that an automobile policy must provide the same coverage to a permissive user as is afforded the named insured, but only up to the limits of the Financial Responsibility Law. However, a policy which includes such a limitation on coverage and will be subjected to \u201cclose scrutiny.\u201d The Court of Appeal noted that it is the insurer\u2019s burden to make its coverage exclusions and limitations \u201cconspicuous, plain and clear.\u201d The court also observed that in interpreting an automobile policy\u2019s permissive user limitations, the court must examine the reasonable expectations of the insured car owner, not the reasonable expectations of the permissive user.\nThe Court proceeded to hold that the permissive user limitation in the FIC policy was \u201cconspicuous\u201d and distinguished the limitation from that in Haynes v. Farmers Ins. Exch. (2004) 32 Cal.4th 1198 because of the location of the limitation in the FIC policy. According to the Court, the FIC policy notified the insured \u201cearly and often\u201d that a permissive user had lower limits than the named insured.\nThe Court also found the limitation \u201cplain and clear\u201d because the policy did more than simply state that a permissive user was only covered to the extent of the \u201cFinancial Responsibility Law.\u201d On the first page of the FIC policy, the insuring agreement provided that the limits in the Declarations are subject to a reduction \u201cto the state mandatory minimum of $15,000 each person, $30,000 each accident, and $5,000 for property damage when there is a permissive user of the insured vehicle.\u201d According to the Court, that was \u201cplain and clear.\u201d\nProvisions which limit the amount of coverage available to permissive users are subject to close judicial scrutiny. However, as this case makes clear, if an insurer uses language which is \u201cconspicuous, plain and clear,\u201d the insurer can in fact limit a permissive user to the statutory minimum limits.\nThe California Court of Appeal has held that a legal malpractice policy\u2019s exclusion for claims made by business entities that are owned or managed by the insured applies so long as the insured owned or managed the entity at the time the insured first gave notice of the claim to the insurer. (Car. Cas. Ins. Co. v. L.M. Ross Law Group, LLP (2010) 184 Cal.App.4th 196)\nL.M. Ross Law Group, LLP (\u201cRoss Law Group\u201d) is a two-person law firm whose sole equity partner is Leonard M. Ross. Mr. Ross is both the settlor and trustee of the Leonard M. Ross Revocable Trust, which owns a majority interest in an entertainment company called Diversified Entertainment (\u201cDEC\u201d). As of 2005, Mr. Ross also served as DEC\u2019s manager.\nIn June 2005, DEC was sued for damages arising out of a distribution agreement it had entered into under the legal advice of Mr. Ross\u2019 law firm, Ross Law Group. DEC in turn made a legal malpractice claim against Ross Law Group, claiming over $800,000 in damages.\nRoss Law Group tendered the claim to its legal malpractice insurer, Carolina Casualty Insurance Company (\u201cCarolina Casualty\u201d), in September 2005. Significantly, Carolina Casualty\u2019s \u201cclaims made\u201d policy contained an exclusion for claims made by any business enterprise (other than the insured) in which the insured owned more than a 10% interest, or in which the insured was an owner, partner, or employee, or which was directly or indirectly controlled, operated, or managed by the insured.\nDEC filed a legal malpractice lawsuit against Ross Law Group in December 2007. By that point, Mr. Ross was allegedly no longer the manager of DEC. Carolina Casualty agreed to defend Ross Law Group under a reservation of rights. The lawsuit ultimately settled for $250,000, with Ross Law Group contributing $175,000 and Carolina Casualty contributing $75,000 toward the settlement, and with each side reserving its right to recover the amount paid from the other party.\nCarolina Casualty then filed the subject action against Ross Law Group. Finding that coverage was barred by the insured-controlled enterprises exclusion, the trial court granted Carolina Casualty\u2019s motion for summary judgment. Ross Law Group appealed.\nThe Court of Appeal affirmed the judgment in favor of Carolina Casualty. To begin with, the Court held that the insured-controlled enterprises exclusion was triggered because Ross was DEC\u2019s manger at the time the potential claim was reported in 2005. The Court rejected Ross Law Group\u2019s argument that since Ross was no longer managing DEC when the actual lawsuit was filed in 2007, the exclusion did not apply. Instead, the Court found that conditions should be measured when the insured first gives notice of the potential claim to the insurer \u2014 i.e., in 2005 \u2014 because the policy expressly provides that claims \u201cshall be deemed to have been made when notice was first given\u201d to Carolina Casualty. The Court also noted that the mere fact that the exclusion was not drafted to expressly cover this specific fact pattern \u2014 i.e., where an insured lawyer managed the client when his firm notified the insurer of a potential claim but not when the actual action was filed \u2014 does not render the exclusion ambiguous.\nThe Court further found that the exclusion was also triggered because Mr. Ross, through his trust, had a majority interest in DEC. The Court explained that under California law, property held in a revocable inter vivos trust is deemed the property of the settlor. Since the Leonard M. Ross Revocable Trust was the majority owner of DEC, Mr. Ross himself was in effect the majority owner, thus triggering the exclusion.\nNotably, the Court emphasized that its holding was consistent with the exclusion\u2019s anti-collusion purpose. In essence, Ross was the real party on both sides of the claim: he asserted the legal malpractice claim on behalf of DEC, and he guided Ross Law Group\u2019s response to that claim. As the Court noted, the potential for collusion under such circumstances is readily apparent.\nThe insured-controlled enterprises exclusion is not frequently litigated. This is the first reported California decision to elaborate on the relationship between the notice provisions of a \u201cclaims made\u201d policy and the timing component of the exclusion.",

        "raw_content": "England was engaged in two great wars during the period of Flood's supremacy in the Irish Parliament--the seven years' war, concluded by the peace of Paris in 1763, and the American war, concluded by the treaty of Versailles, in 1783. To each of these wars Ireland was the second largest contributor both as to men and money; and by both she was the severest sufferer, in her manufactures, her provision trade, and her general prosperity. While army contracts, and all sorts of military and naval expenditure in a variety of ways returned to the people of England the produce of their taxes, the Irish had no such compensation for the burdens imposed on their more limited resources. The natural result was, that that incipient prosperity which Chesterfield hailed with pleasure in 1751, was arrested in its growth, and fears began to be seriously entertained that the country would be driven back to the lamentable condition from which it had slowly and laboriously emerged during the reign of George II.\nThe absence of employment in the towns threw the labouring classes more and more upon the soil for sustenance, while the landlord legislation of the period threw them as helplessly back upon other pursuits than agriculture. Agrarian injustice was encountered by conspiracy, and for the first time in these pages, we have to record the introduction of the diabolical machinery of secret oath-bound associations among the Irish peasantry. Of the first of these combinations in the southern counties, a cotemporary writer gives the following account: \"Some landlords in Munster,\" he says, \"have let their lands to cotters far above their value, and, to lighten their burden, allowed commonange to their tenants by way of recompense: afterwards, in despite of all equity, contrary to all compacts, the landlords enclosed these commons, and precluded their unhappy tenants from the only means of making their bargains tolerable.\" The peasantry of Waterford, Cork, and other southern counties met in tumultuous crowds, and demolished the new enclosures. The oligarchical majority took their usual cue on such occasions: they pronounced, at once, that the cause of the riots was \"treason against the state;\" they even obtained a select committee to \"inquire into the cause and progress of the Popish insurrection in Munster.\" Although the London Gazette, on the authority of royal commissioners, declared that the rioters \"consisted indiscriminately of persons of different persuasions,\" the Castle party would have it \"another Popish plot.\" Even Dr. Lucas was carried away by the passions of the hour, and declaimed against all lenity, as cowardly and criminal.\nA large military force, under the Marquis of Drogheda, was accordingly despatched to the south. The Marquis fixed his head-quarters at Clogheen, in Tipperary, the parish priest of which was the Rev. Nicholas Sheehy. The magistracy of the county, especially Sir Thomas Maude, William Bagnel, John Bagwell, Daniel Toler, and Parson Hewitson, were among the chief maintainers of the existence of a Popish plot, to bring in the French and the Pretender. Father Sheehy had long been fixed upon as their victim: largely connected with the minor gentry, educated in France, young, popular, eloquent and energetic, a stern denouncer of the licentious lives of the squires, and of the exacting tithes of the parsons, he was particularly obnoxious. In 1763 he was arrested on a charge of high treason, for drilling and enrolling Whiteboys, but was acquitted. Towards the close of that year, Bridge, one of the late witnesses against him, suddenly disappeared. A charge of murder was then laid against the priest of Clogheen, and a prostitute named Dunlea, a vagrant lad named Lonergan, and a convicted horse stealer called Toohey, were produced in evidence against him, after he had lain nearly a year in prison, heavily fettered. On the 12th of March, 1765, he was tried at Clonmel, on this evidence; and notwithstanding an alibi was proved, he was condemned, and beheaded on the third day afterwards. Beside the old ruined church of Shandraghan, his well-worn tomb remains till this day. He died in his thirty-eighth year. Two months later, Edward Sheehy, his cousin, and two respectable young farmers, named Buxton and Farrell, were executed under a similar charge, and upon the same testimony. All died with religious firmness and composure. The fate of their enemies is notorious; with a single exception, they met deaths violent, loathsome, and terrible. Maude died insane, Bagwell in idiocy, one of the jury committed suicide, another was found dead in a privy, a third was killed by his horse, a fourth was drowned, a fifth shot, and so through the entire list. Toohey was hanged for felony, the prostitute Dunlea fell into a cellar and was killed, and the lad Lonergan, after enlisting as a soldier, died of a loathsome disease in a Dublin infirmary.\nIn 1767, an attempt to revive the plot was made by the Munster oligarchy, without success. Dr. McKenna, Bishop of Cloyne, was arrested but enlarged; Mr. Nagle, of Garnavilla (a relative of Edmund Burke), Mr. Robert Keating, and several respectable Catholic gentlemen, were also arrested. It appears that Edmund Burke was charged by the ascendancy party with having \"sent his brother Richard, recorder of Bristol, and Mr. Nagle, a relation, on a mission to Munster, to levy money on the Popish body for the use of the Whiteboys, who were exclusively Papists.\" The fact was, that Burke did originate a subscription for the defence of the second batch of victims, who, through his and other exertions, were fortunately saved from the fate of their predecessors.\nContemporaneous with the Whiteboys were the northern agrarians, called \"Hearts of Steel,\" formed among the absentee Lord Downshire's tenants, in 1762; the \"Oak Boys,\" so called from wearing oak leaves in their hats; and the \"Peep o' Day Boys,\" the precursors of the Orange Association. The infection of conspiracy ran through all Ireland, and the disorder was neither short-lived nor trivial. Right-boys, Defenders, and a dozen other denominations descended from the same evil genius, whoever he was, that first introduced the system of signs, and passwords, and midnight meetings, among the peasantry of Ireland. The celebrated society of United Irishmen was the highest form which that principle, in our politics, ever reached. In its origin, it was mainly a Protestant organization.\nFrom the first, the Catholic bishops and clergy strenuously opposed these secret societies. The Bishop of Cloyne issued a reprobatory pastoral; Father Arthur O'Leary employed his facile pen against them; the Bishop of Ossory anathematized them in his diocese. Priests in Kildare, Kilkenny, and Munster, were often in personal danger from these midnight legislators; their chapels had been frequently nailed up, and their bishops had been often obliged to remove them from one neighbourhood to another to prevent worse consequences. The infatuation was not to be stayed; the evil was engrafted on society, and many a long year, and woeful scene, and blighted life, and broken heart, was to signalize the perpetuation of secret societies among the population.\nThese startling symptoms of insubordination and lawlessness, while they furnished plausible pretexts to the advocates of repression, still further confirmed the Patriot party in their belief, that, nothing short of a free trade in exports and imports, and a thorough system of retrenchment in every branch of the public service, could save the nation from bankruptcy and ruin. This was Flood's opinion, and he had been long recognized as the leading spirit of the party. The aged Malone, true to his principles of conciliation and constitutionalism to the last, passed away from the scene, in the midst of the exciting events of 1776. For some years before his death, his former place had been filled by the younger and more vigorous member for Kilkenny, who, however, did not fail to consult him with all the deference due to his age, his services, and his wisdom. One of his last official acts was presiding over the committee of the whole House, which voted the American contingent, but rejected the admission of German troops to supply their place.",

        "raw_content": "Father, son murdered in Westmoreland\nBY HORACE HINES Observer staff reporter hinesh@jamaicaobserver.com\nSAVANNA-LA-MAR, Westmoreland \u2014 The Westmoreland football fraternity was yesterday plunged into mourning after the bullet-riddled body of Reno FC's most charismatic supporter, 62-year-old Trevor Wynter, was found in his bed, shortly after his son was discovered murdered a short distance away.\nWynter, who is affectionately known as 'Pepper Rock', lived at 45 Seaton Street with his 19-year-old son Jahboukie Wynter.\nReports are that about 3:45 yesterday morning residents of the section of Savanna-la-Mar called Grotto heard a barrage of gunshots in their community.\nShortly after, the body of the son was discovered lying along a section of the roadway in a pool of blood with what appeared to be gunshot wounds.\nResidents who went to the father's house to deliver the tragic news, became suspicious on realising that the front door was wide open. When they entered the house, they saw the body of the popular football fanatic slumped in his bed, also drenched in blood.\nThe police who were summoned are yet to establish a motive for the double murder.\nWhen news broke of the two murders, a large crowd converged on the street outside the deceased's house, as crime scene investigators combed inside for clues.\n\"Me can't believe say Pepper Rock dead,\" bemoaned a man of Indian descent. \"Them kill him inna him bed.\"\nAnother member of the gathering who also expressed shock at the tragedies, described the elder Wynter as a peaceful individual.\n\"Pepper naw trouble nobody,\" he said.\nThere was great outpouring of affection for the Reno fan when the news team arrived at the Westmoreland Football Association headquarters where several mourners were gathered.\nHe was mostly remembered for his large Reno flags which he eagerly waved as he drummed up support for the team.\n\"Pepper was a man always with his big flag. He did not support Reno in an ordinary way, but an extraordinary way, especially with his big flag, which at times appears bigger than the field,\" said another Reno supporter who goes by the name Tanker.\n\"Even when the team went down, he was the only one who had the flags. He's a household name in the parish.\"\nMeanwhile, President of the Westmoreland Football Association Everton Tomlinson recalled the \"undying love and dedication\" Wynter has shown for Reno Football Club\".\n\"He always dressed in the Reno colours. It is very sad when we lose someone who dedicate his life to the spirit of the game. He was most valuable in the 1980s and 1990s in the glory days of Reno, inspiring the crowd. Those memories keep popping up this morning,\" Tomlinson said.\nIn the meanwhile, Reno's technical director and former player, Wendell Downswell reflected on the days when Wynter would pump up the crowd to cheer for Reno, which at times resulted in motivation for the team to score.\n\"It's really a tragic loss to football in Westmoreland and to Reno, especially. His death has sent shock waves throughout the football fraternity. It's a major, major loss to the football fraternity,\" Downswell stated.\n\"Even the die-hard Reno fans saw him as a prophet. He had that level of confidence with the powerful message that he brought.\"",

        "title": "Finding a Charging Solution for Your STEM Robots",
        "raw_content": "By The Cart Guru \u2022 April 27, 2018\nClassroom robotics can be a launching pad for student innovation. By going through the process of building a robot, students are inspired to ask questions and let their creative juices flow. Integrating robots into the lesson plan not only encourages students to learn programming, but gives them opportunities to complete hands-on activities either independently, or through collaboration with peers.\nSimilar to Chromebook, notebook, and tablet devices, it is also essential for robotic devices to be charged and ready for use. However, charging solutions that work with more commonplace forms of classroom technology are not necessarily advertised to support robotic devices. This apparent absence of a one-fits-all charging solution has left many teachers struggling to figure out where, or how, to most efficiently secure and charge their robots in the classroom.\nNow, what would you say if I told you that a number of the charging stations designed for mobile devices may also be capable of charging robots? Think about it\u2014Just because a charging solution is not necessarily advertised to support robots doesn\u2019t mean it won\u2019t do the job! Keep reading to discover what you should look for in charging solutions to help decide whether they are compatible with your robot charging needs.\nAdjustable, Locking Compartments\nInstead of leaving robots out while they charge, charging stations, lockers, or carts may be appropriate solutions for schools that are concerned with the security of their robots. These solutions typically have one or several locking compartments that will provide students with a secure location where they can leave their robots to charge. It is also common for these types of solutions to feature integrated cable management systems with outlets and/or USB ports for device charging.\nOn top of that, choosing a charging solution with an adjustable compartment means it will be able to fit technology of various types and sizes. Depending on the size of your robots, look for a solution with shelves or dividers that can be adjusted, or even removed, to create additional space. Once you have a solution in mind, be sure to reach out to the manufacturer to ask about how the space may be altered to suit your current\u2014or even future\u2014needs.\nCharging in One, or Multiple, Locations\nTeachers often move their students to another classroom in order to use robots because that may be where they are stationed. The downside to this practice, however, is that valuable class time is lost during each transition. The distance between these rooms can vary greatly, and may even be located in separate buildings.\nMobile charging carts easily solve this problem by quickly transporting and sharing technology. Some charging stations even feature a hybrid design, allowing the user to decide whether they want a mobile or stationary solution. This versatility makes it possible for teachers to not only charge robots in one location, but also easily transport the robots and their charging outlets from one classroom to another to share them across classes.\nIn the absence of charging solutions designed specifically for robots, quite a few teachers have turned to do-it-yourself (DIY) robot charging solutions. However, there are a number of considerations to take into account when making this decision; especially in an environment where a student\u2019s safety is of the utmost importance.\nDIY charging solutions typically have little to no cable management and in the instances where they do, not always is there is any rhyme or reason to how the cables are organized. Admittedly, cables and wires can be hard to control. It\u2019s a messy job. Tripping hazards abound when cables are not contained or managed correctly.\nThe advantages to using a manufactured charging solution is that they are held accountable to special regulations and design patterns that ensure the utmost in consumer safety. Manufactured carts most typically wire all devices to one or two surge protected power cables, and include cable management systems that will keep your robots\u2019 charging cables organized.\nRemember... One Size Does Not Fit All\nDepending on the size of the robots, the classroom\u2019s layout, what the technology program consists of\u2014and many other factors, one charging solution may be more suitable than another. The most beneficial action you can take is to reach out to these manufacturers and not be afraid to ask questions about their solutions. One thing is certain, dead batteries will happen from time to time and without access to all of the robots, the lesson will be disrupted. This makes it essential to provide a reliable, and secure, charging solution.\nGet an Affordable, Hybrid Solution Suitable for a Range of Devices",

        "title": "Welcome to the third dimension: a week with the Canon 200mm f/2L IS \u2014 John Gooday Photography",
        "raw_content": "Recently, I spent a week shooting in the Czech Republic with Canon's 200mm f/2. Not an obvious choice of lens for my sort of work, but it turned out to be a great piece of glass which gave a new look and feel to images. I was very reluctant to return it when the 7 days were up. To use the 200 f/2 to its best you\u2019ll need to get pretty close to your subjects \u2013 something that\u2019s often problematic in the real world. But if you can manage to use the thing at close quarters, it gives a unique feel to images that few other lenses can match.\n(Image: Canon EOS 1DX, EF200mm f/2L IS II, 1/1250 @ f/2.2, ISO 1600)\nThe first thing you notice about the lens is that it\u2019s pretty hefty, weighing 2.5 Kg \u2013 that\u2019s a kilo more than the 70-200mm f/2.8L IS, and it\u2019s even a shade heavier than the 300mm f/2.8L! It\u2019s not as long as the 300 and all that weight is packed into a small space. Perhaps this is why it felt a bit awkward to hand hold. It actually feels heavier than 2.5Kg. For the week of testing I used a tripod for the majority of shots as I found it quite tiring to shoot freestyle (and I\u2019m used to hefting a 500mm about\u2026). One reason that the lens is so heavy is that it's a mark 1 lens and isn't constructed out of the same fancy lightweight materials that Canon's latest mark II super telephotos are made from. Being a mark 1 lens, it also has the old style leather lens hood which I find a bit of a pain. I would be tempted to invest in an alternative hood from the likes of Aquatec.\nThe next thing that strikes you is the price - \u00a34449 at www.wex.com at the time of writing). It\u2019s certainly not cheap, especially when you consider that the 70-200 f/2.8L IS II can be bought for \u00a31750 or less. Is the one-stop increase in maximum aperture, and prime lens sharpness, worth an extra \u00a32750 over the aforementioned excellent zoom? That depends\u2026\nWhat else do you get for your money? Well, there's a '5 stop image stabiliser' (at least a stop more than other Canon lenses). In reality, I find manufacturer's claims for stabilisation a little optimistic - I tend to knock off a stop or two. I didn't really test the stabilisation scientifically, but when hand-holding it seemed pretty much equivalent to that in the 70-200mm. I suspect the extra weight of the lens makes it hard to hold the lens as steady as the much lighter the 70-200mm, hence the lack of apparent stability gain). It has the usual two modes of stabilisation - standard and panning. There's a focus range limiter switch, and the ability to preset a focus point which the lens will immediately jump to if you press one of the buttons around the rim. All pretty standard for an L series telephoto prime.\nSo, how did it perform in the field? Three things became apparent over the course of the week\nThe lens is sharp. Sharper than anything I\u2019ve ever used before. And it\u2019s nice and contrasty.\nf/2 is, to my surprise, a usable aperture in real life and brings a whole new look to images\nAt wide apertures the lens can produce beautifully soft backgrounds, even when the background isn\u2019t that far away\nSharpness and focussing\nI used to think that the 300mm f/2.8 defined the meaning of 'sharpness'. The 200mm f/2 is in another league. Raw images produced on a 1DX were so sharp that I often ended up turning off raw image sharpening in lightroom to avoid images from other lenses I was using looking soft by comparison. I honestly can't imagine how a mark ii model of this lens (which doesn't look likely anytime soon) could improve on the current version's sharpness.\n(Image: Canon EOS 1DX, EF200mm f/2L IS, 1/2000sec @ f/2 ISO 500, tripod with Uniqball head)\nI was a little worried that focussing would be slow \u2013 Canon\u2019s other ultra wide aperture lenses (I\u2019m thinking of the 85mm f/1.2 and 50mm f/1.2) are not renowned for locking on quickly, and fairly hopeless at tracking fast moving subjects. The 200mm actually focusses very rapidly \u2013 I found it no slower than the 300mm f/2.8 or 500mm f/4, and mounted on a 1DX it had no problem tracking a Goshawk in flight (and that\u2019s a fairly rapidly moving target). I\u2019d say that the lens was eminently suited to action photography.\nUsing ultra-wide apertures in the real-world\nYou might think that f/2 would produce such a shallow depth of field as to be virtually unusable. Not the case - I was surprised by how much was still in focus around the origin - enough to keep both eyes and beak sharp in head-on shots at f/2. More interestingly, the focus dropped away very smoothly making the transition from sharp to soft much less noticeable than I'd expected. But it did drop away quite spectacularly as distance from the point of focus became mid-range -more so than human vision. This has the effect of really separating the subject from the background in a way that isn't possible with a 200mm f/2.8, or the human eye for that matter. Images shot this way can seem almost three dimensional, certainly very different to other telephotos. The photo below shows how the background, less than 10m behind the eagle, drops out of focus at f/2.2. I've also included a shot from a previous visit to this site taken with a 70-200mm f/2.8. The eagle's slightly further back from the camera (it didn't seem to be listening to me telling it to fly down the same path as before), but even so you get an idea of how f/2.8 doesn't separate it from the rocks in the background nearly as well.\n(Image: for comparison, this shot was taken with a 70-200 f/2.8 wide open. Canon EOS 1DX, EF70-200mm f/2.8L IS II, 1/1000 sec @ f/2.8, ISO 3200, tripod with Uniqball head)\nBut what's that I hear from the back of the classroom? \"Couldn't I get the same effect by standing a bit further back with a 300 f/2.8?\". Er, no. The laws of physics get in the way. To get the eagle and scenery the same size in the frame with a 300mm as I did with the 200mm I'd need to stand 1.5 times further back from the bird. Using the standard formula for calculating depth of field, I calculated what would happens if I shot at 10m with a 200mm @ f/2, compared to shooting at 15m with a 300mm @ f/2.8. The total depth of field (distance of the image actually in focus) with the f/2 is 31cm. With the f/2.8, it's 44cm - that's more than a third more, which makes a big difference. (Shooting at 10m with a 200mm f/2.8 will also give an depth of field of 44cm, in case you were wondering...).\nI'm not sure quite how you can objectively measure how nice the background blurring created by a lens is, but I find the 200mm f/2 to produce some of the most pleasing blur I've seen. The narrow depth of field that creates the three-dimensional look discussed above also creates pleasing blurs out of backgrounds that are relatively close. Shooting in a forest (as I was a lot of the time while testing the lens) that's a real bonus as some things (like trees) are pretty hard to move further away by hand. Rather than try and explain what the blur is like, I'll let you examine some images shot at wide aperture and decide whether you like the effect yourself.\n(Image: Canon EOS 1DX, EF200mm f/2L IS, 1/1000 sec @ f/2, ISO 1000, hand-held)\n(Image: Canon EOS 1DX, EF200mm f/2L IS, 1/500th sec @ f/2, ISO 500)\n(Image: Canon EOS 1DX, EF200mm f/2L IS, 1/1600 sec @ f/2, ISO 500, tripod with Uniqball head)\n(Image: Canon 1DX, EF200mm f/2L IS, 1/320 sec @ f/2, ISO 320, hand-held)\nOther considerations and summary\nThere's a bit of vignetting at f/2, but not that much. A lot less than you'd see on a wide angle prime. I also felt the tripod shoe was a little small. I needed a reasonably long plate to allow me to balance the lens in a tripod with the 1DX and 5D Mark III. The plate I ended up using (125mm) dwarfed the lens foot.\nThe lens works with a 1.4x extender but image quality degrades a little (I'd say level with an unextended 70-200mm). The image below shows a test target shot at 5m with the 200mm @ f/2, and 7m with the 200mm + 1.4x extender @ 7m. If you look at the enlargements, you can see, for example, that the 'I promise to pay..' text is a little clearer in the non-extender (left) image.\nThis is a very special lens that, in the right conditions, can produce images that look very different to normal telephoto shots. Very few wildlife photographers have one, so you won't see that many photos similar to yours. It's a differentiator. The only reason I'm not rushing to the nearest Canon Pro dealer to obtain one is down to the price - \u00a34500 is a lot for 200mm.\nCategories: Equipment Reviews Tags: lens, telephoto, 200mm, f/2\nMarch 13, 2015 by john gooday\n\u2190 Just another day at the office?

        "raw_content": "Firing Mueller would end presidency\nThe genius of an Abraham Lincoln or Thomas Jefferson would be insufficient to juggle the multiple crises facing the current president over the past week: a poison gas attack in Syria; a looming trade war with the world's second-biggest economy, China; a criminal probe involving both the president and his longtime personal lawyer; and the resignation of the Republican speaker of the House, the man chiefly responsible for passing the president's signature accomplishment, tax reform. How much worse, then, that President Donald Trump is no Lincoln or Jefferson but a narcissistic, impulsive man who knows little history, refuses to take advice from those who do, gets his policy briefings from Fox News talking heads and uses Twitter as his preferred method of issuing policy directives and executing foreign policy.\nWe live in dangerous times, grown exponentially more dangerous because no one in President Trump's orbit is willing to take him on. He has fired much of his national security team and picked replacements based on their willingness to flatter him and defend him on TV. In the balance hang peace in the Middle East, a nuclear threat from North Korea and a potential economic crisis if he persists in his trade war folly. We have never been in such a perilous place with someone so inept in dealing with complexity. And all of this is taking place against a backdrop of an investigation into whether candidate Trump or his campaign, wittingly or unwittingly, encouraged or assisted efforts by Russia to influence the presidential election and whether the president has obstructed justice in attempting to shut down the investigation.\nIn the days and weeks ahead, President Trump may well fire Robert Mueller in hopes that removing the special counsel will end the inquiry into Russian meddling and the Trump campaign's role or lack thereof. Apparently, that's the counsel of former White House adviser turned guru to the alt-right in Europe Steve Bannon. If Trump were to do so, he would provoke a constitutional crisis and his own undoing. The investigation into crimes would not disappear with the firing of Robert Mueller, nor would Trump or his campaign be out of the woods. Any criminal activity would still be prosecuted, and Democrats \u2014 whose likelihood of capturing the House, if not also the Senate, would rise dramatically after a Mueller firing \u2014 would lead the fight to impeach Trump.\nDonald Trump is used to getting his way. He has always behaved as if he is entitled to do whatever he wants whenever he wants \u2014 and to whom he wants. No doubt he believed that becoming president would allow him to indulge his impulses on a grander scale. His campaign speeches were rife with plans to ban Muslims, build a wall and make Mexico pay for it, punish China, lock up Hillary Clinton, and gag the media with new libel laws. He thought he could bully courts and get Congress to do whatever he asked. It was the same attitude he brought to his private life. \"When you're a star, they let you do ... anything,\" Trump told Billy Bush on the infamous \"Access Hollywood\" tape in which he bragged about sexually assaulting women.\nBut in our system, no man is above the law. It's a tradition that goes back to the Magna Carta in 1215, which recognized that even the king was bound by law. Donald Trump is bound by the Constitution, which he swore an oath to protect and defend. If he were to try to stop a legitimate and necessary investigation into Russia's meddling in the presidential election and whether anyone in his campaign aided or abetted it, he would undermine the rule of law. I doubt he cares \u2014 but he does care about his own survival. So he should know that firing Mueller would not save the Trump presidency but lead him to the inevitable ignominy of impeachment.\nLinda Chavez serves on the board of Republicans for the Rule of Law and is a senior fellow at the Niskanen Center.

        "raw_content": "Terry's Computer Asylum has been offering hometown tech support for 20 years\nTech company keeps devices running smoothly\nComputer Tech Jason Kennedy and Terry Dowis, owner of Terry's Computer Asylum, take time to reflect on 20 years of business in downtown Sterling. (Lisa Young/ Sterling Journal-Advocate)\nIf it feels like your computer, cell phone or tablet is taking over your world and it's driving you crazy, don't worry \u2014 help is just a phone call away. Terry Dowis at Terry's Computer Asylum in downtown Sterling has been working on computers and the like since 1997.\nWhen Dowis experienced problems with his first computer he called a local company for some minor tech support only to find they wouldn't help him over the phone and there was a hefty charge to look at the computer and a sizable hourly rate as well. That's when Dowis decided to figure it out for himself and give the other business \"a run for their money.\"\nDowis's business plan may seem simple, but it's kept him in business for 20 years. The handy computer man started his business using his garage, the trunk of his car and a spare bedroom.\nTerry's Computer Asylum at 101 Main Street in Sterling specializes in upgrades, new systems, repairs and refurbishing. The business will celebrate their 20 year anniversary with Mega Music this Sunday at 1100 West Main Street. (Lisa Young / Sterling Journal-Advocate)\n\"I would pick up people's computers from their homes, work on them and then take them back,\" Dowis said.\nMuch of his work in the early days was admittedly by trial and error. Fortunately, things are a bit different now with the ability to do more research on the Internet. But even with all the information and all the experience in the world, Dowis still looks at every computer as a \"unique individual\" with its own personality.\nOnce his computer repair business began to grow, Dowis moved from his garage to a back room in what is now Town Square Realty at 425 Main Street in 2000. After two years, Dowis moved into what has become his permanent home at 101 Main Street. Finding the perfect name for the emerging business was another \"trial and error\" experience. He said he began with \"Carousel Computers\" because his family has been in the carnival business since the 1930s and his mother loved always loved carousel rides. Later the name evolved into \"Terry's Computer\" and then in a flash of frustration and genius came the name \"Terry's Computer Asylum.\"\nDowis laughs as he tells the story of how one day his daughter walked in while he was about to put his hair out over a particular computer problem. Dowis had his head in his hands when his daughter asked him what was wrong. Dowis told her, \"This darn computer is driving me crazy.\" His daughter jokingly told her father, \"Why don't you just call it Terry's Computer Asylum.\"\nTCA focuses primarily on servicing small businesses and home users providing repair services, upgrades for systems and refurbished systems for re-sale. While TCA doesn't stock new computers, customers can still shop with Dowis, who will order their new computers online and then provide the needed services by someone they know and trust.\nOver the past 20 years of business, Dowis has learned that the computer industry and technology is ever changing and evolving. The new trends and needs of customers keep Dowis researching, growing and learning about the products on the market.\n\"I can work on ten computers all with the same exact problem and the fix is going to be different on every single one of them,\" Dowis said.\nNo matter what system people operate, Dowis said the main problem people have with their computers is still viruses and spyware. It happens to everyone from the novice computer user to the expert. People often \"click\" before they think, creating the perfect opportunity for viruses to attack. Dowis recommends that computer users get a regular maintenance check-up at least once a year to update their virus protection and \"clear out the junk.\"\nTerry's Computer Asylum can service all makes and models of desktops and laptops. They offer a bevy of repair services from virus, spyware and malware removal to complete reloads. For a complete list of all TCA computer services, check out www.computerasylum.com.\nComputer tech Jason Kennedy provides services on Apple systems and Dave Adams of Rising Stallion Cell and Tech Repair at 414 Ensign in Fort Morgan specializes in cell phone, tablet and game system repairs. \"Big Dave\" Mildenberg known as the \"runner,\" provides some tech support but mainly handles the pick-up and delivery service for the store. Dowis said TCA has an 8 to 10 mile radius on pick-up and delivery service in the Sterling area.\nTCA is a pet friendly and smoke free environment where community comes first. Dowis said he believes in supporting the community that supports him. Through the years, TCA has offered services and given money to a number of community organizations. Dowis also runs a garage sale list every week on his Facebook page, website and the I Care Sterling Facebook page as a free service to the community. TCA offers a 10 percent discount to educators, students, military members, police and firefighters. Dowis said TCA will do free maintenance work for non-profits and churches; however they do charge for any parts that may be needed.\nTerry's Computer Asylum will celebrate their 20 year anniversary with Mega Music this Sunday at 1100 West Main St.",

        "raw_content": "David Kimo Frankel\nEmail: davidkimofrankel@hawaiiantel.net\nJUDGE RULES THE STATE BREACHED ITS TRUST DUTY AT P\u014cHAKULOA\n(Honolulu,HI) In a bombshell ruling, a circuit court judge has ruled that the Department of Land and Natural Resources breached its trust duty to m\u0101lama \u2018\u0101ina with respect to the lands the state leases to the U.S. Army at the P\u014dhakuloa Training Area, located on the island of Hawai\u2018i. Circuit Court Judge Gary Chang issued an order requiring the department to inspect the area to ensure that the Army is complying with the terms of the lease it entered into in August 1964. He also barred the department from entering into a new lease until the board of land and natural resources renders a written determination that the Army is complying with the terms of the existing lease, which expires in August 2029.\nIn August 1964, the federal government and the new State of Hawai`i signed a 65-year lease allowing the Army to use 22,971 acres of state land at P\u014dhakuloa for one dollar. The lease required the Army to \u201cmake every reasonable effort to . . . remove or deactivate all live or blank ammunition upon completion of a training exercise or prior to entry by the said public, whichever is sooner\u201d and to \u201cremove or bury all trash, garbage or other waste materials.\u201d\nIn April 2014, Clarence Ching and Maxine Kahaulelio, represented by the Native Hawaiian Legal Corporation, sued the department of land and natural resources for its failure to monitor whether the United States complied with the terms of the Lease. At a trial in 2015, Ching and Kahaulelio demonstrated that military debris, including unexploded ordnance, is scattered across the landscape.\nJudge Chang found that the department of land and natural resources has been \u201caware that military training activities on [P\u014dhakuloa] pose a significant and substantial risk of harm or damage\u201d to state lands.\u201d He also found that the department\u2019s failure to perform its duties \u201chas harmed, impaired, diminished, or otherwise adversely affected [Ching and Kahaulelio\u2019s] cultural interests in [P\u014dhakuloa].\u201d\nThe court concluded that the department of land and natural resources has an affirmative \u201cduty to m\u0101lama \u2018\u0101ina.\u201d \u201cWhile the principle rests on firm precedent, this is the first time a court has used this term to describe the state\u2019s duties\u201d according to David Kimo Frankel, one of the attorneys in the case. Clarence Ching added, \u201cEverything we do is for the \u2018\u0101ina.\u201d\nNHLC Ching Release\nAbout the Native Hawaiian Legal Corporation:\nThe Native Hawaiian Legal Corporation (Native Hawaiian Legal Corporation) is a 501 (c)(3) non-profit, public-interest law firm with a practice that is concentrated in the area of Native Hawaiian Rights law. NHLC provides legal assistance to families and communities engaged in perpetuating the culture and traditions of Hawai`i\u2019s indigenous people. Founded by several grass roots leaders in 1974, NHLC was initially a volunteer-run referral service. The high demand for direct help, especially from families in need of legal assistance to protect their ancestral lands, transformed NHLC into a law firm that now provides legal help to approximately 400 clients annually.

        "raw_content": "Discussion and Book Launch\nOpen Discussions/Gulf Cultural Club\nReforming Iraq; Prospects and challenges\nChris Doyle*\nDr Zuhair Al-Naher**\nKaren Dabrowska***\nDiscussion panel (left to right): Dr Zuhair Al-Naher, Laith Kubba (chairman), Karen Dabrowska, Chris Doyle\n[A video of the discussion is available on the Abrar House channel on YouTube: click here.]\nThe destabilisation of Iraq in the past decade has contributed to the state of anarchy in the Middle East, the rise of extremism and the mushrooming of terrorism. To achieve stability, Iraq must be supported to achieve meaningful reforms and strong central government. Corruption, quota system and foreign intervention are among the illnesses of the country. What are the prospects of Iraq\u2019s transformation into a sovereign, democratic and stable power? These challenges will be debated at this seminar.\nKaren Dabrowska will present her new book: Iraq; the ancient sites & Iraqi Kurdistan.\nChairman Laith Kubba (former spokesman for the Iraqi government): I have just returned from a very short visit to Iraq so I don\u2019t assume I can add to the discussions or comments more than my impressions. I worked for the Iraqi government. Iraq has by now become a very tough challenge. It has proved to everybody that it is so much easier to get rid of a dictator than to build a healthy situation for democracy. So it is extremely challenging and with what is going on in the rest of the Middle East, be it Syria, Yemen or Libya. I think this sheds light on a much deeper challenge in the region, beyond simply a government or a dictator or an ideology. It is an indication of much deeper problem out there. We can all have impressions and insights. The real challenge is how to resolve the situation and to move forward.\nChris Doyle: It is a great pleasure to address you. Eid Mubarak to everybody. I give you my greetings at this time as we look at wide scale disasters across the Middle East. It is obviously not a time for huge celebrations. Thank you to Karen for inviting me. I love the fact that there is a book geared towards tourism in Iraq. That is a huge triumph of optimism. I very much welcome the days when Iraq is really open for the sort of tourism that its history, its culture and its people deserve. It has been my privilege to have been able to visit Iraq a few times \u2013 it is a country that I can only wish the best for and hope that it can come out of the troubles it has had for many decades.\nThis evening I will look at Iraq from an international perspective and from the context of what is going on in the region and then zoom in casting some thoughts and ideas about where we have gone wrong and why. I leave it to my colleagues here who are more expert on the country itself to look at the detail, the changes, the reforms and some of the trends on the ground.\nIraq is going through a difficult period. That expression reminds me of how Chairman Mao described the great famine of China. It is very tough. It occurs at a time when the region is going through simultaneous crises. Syria as well. Yemen, Libya and other countries. Long gone are the days when you can focus on one issue. You have to look at them all. They are all interconnected but also have their distinct specificities.\nMy first point would be to query whether the international community is in any way prepared or suited to deal with this at this moment. I am reminded of a story a former British ambassador told me about a Labour Foreign Secretary many years who when he entered office told his officials: \u201cAs far as the Middle East is concerned I don\u2019t want to hear anything about it for at least six months and then only if it is absolutely important you can give me one side of A4 so I see where the bloody hell it is.\u201d\nI suspect that ministers in the Foreign Office now don\u2019t get sixty minutes without having to reflect somewhat on events in the Middle East. What has happened just this month is the clear realisation in Britain and much of Europe that what goes on in the Middle East will affect us here \u2013 we cannot live insulated from these sorts of events whether it be in terms of refugees and migrants or indeed in terms of security, the economy and any failures on our part in trying to help the region through these crises will have an impact here. We do not live in a disconnected world.\nAre we really well equipped enough to look at the region. I doubt it. I think we still have the same number of ministers in Britain looking at all of these crises. I don\u2019t think there are enough foreign language experts in the Foreign Office. I think that would apply across Europe. I think that this explains in part why we fail to understand why the events of 2011 took place. I think it also points to why we fail to understand the implications of 2003 and our failures in carrying out military action in Iraq and in particular the occupation. So we have to look at the region with humility \u2013 especially Britain because of our historic failures in Iraq. Iraq knows more about those than any other country in the region.\nNow if you don\u2019t look at a country like Iraq, or Libya or Yemen for even a couple days things have changed hugely in the actors on the ground, the various groups, the individuals that you need to keep tabs on would have changed. It presents challenges for the international community and also for the regional players. I think it challenges the assumptions of just how much anybody really knows about the Middle East. I have always been struck by how difficult it is for people living in the Middle East to actually travel from country to another due to the visa regimes. There is a presumption that people in the Gulf would know a country like Syria or people in North Africa would know Iraq somehow. This is a presumption that some journalists would make. I remember seeing Saudis going around Syria for the first time six or seven years ago and it was like a new world to them because they simply were not travelling there until then. So there is a lot that is being uncovered by all of these trends and that adds to the challenge of really understanding the solutions.\nWhen looking at Iraq and our response to Iraq broadly I think there is a failure to realise that the Iraq crisis did not start in 2003. Iraq has undergone a serious of very horrific events be it under the Saddam Hussein regime, the Iran, Iraq war, 1991, the sanctions era and of course everything that has happened since 2003.\nThe different communities in Iraq have experienced these catastrophes in different ways. Obviously the Kurds have a different experience to the people living in Anbar, which is different to the experience of those living in the south. We need to understand that. We need to understand history. People tend to forget that. The people in this audience won\u2019t but the outside world does forget how Iraq came about, how it was put together, the way in which the French and the British drew the lines in the sand.\nWe look now at an Iraq and how can the international community contribute positively to helping. When we are talking about reform in Iraq how can the outside world be helpful and constructive as opposed to interfering and obstructive. I am not particularly optimistic. There are still many people who would like to split up Iraq for their own reasons. Not necessarily for the interests of individuals or groups within Iraq but for their own narrow interests. Maybe Iraq does have to split up, maybe it does have to become a federal state but that should be for Iraqis to decide for Iraqi reasons.\nHow can we help in a country that is obviously wracked by violence, that has Dash controlling large amounts of territory, that now clearly has issues of sectarian divisions (whether it had them in the past or not). Some of the reforms are aimed at tackling the sectarian quota system and the like. So the question will that work? Can you unravel some of these issues with the reforms? I think it is a very, very tough challenge considering where Iraq is now after all the violence on all sides. There are no parties who can claim to be clean on this including as I said internationally what we have done as Britain.\nSo to make Iraq viable this reform process does need to go forward. There does need to be a government in Baghdad that is credible, effective and transparent. Clearly there are issues of corruption and the international community has contributed to that. Clearly there are issues of whether the government in Baghdad has a monopoly on the use of force. Currently I think it is very clear that it does not. That is the primary purpose of the state. That you have the sole and legitimate right to use force and govern under the rule of law. That has not happened. It is going to need that huge transformation. And how can you exercise proper command and control over the Iraqi militias? I would be interested to see if there are any real moves to see that happening in reality on the ground with these militias. Certainly if you are going to win over communities that are disaffected with the government in Baghdad that is going to be absolutely necessary.\nThe way in which the international community is now most involved in Iraq is the battle against Dash. One of the things that concerns me about both Iraq and Syria is that this has become the whole prism through which people like David Cameron and Barak Obama and even Valdamir Putin look at Iraq now. Once you have solve Dash Syria and Iraq will be solvable themselves. Dash is a great challenge for these countries and for the region but obviously it is not the only one.\nCoalition air strikes are not really going to break the back of Dash as a force. They have been doing this for a year and now Britain may be debating on whether to expand its strikes against Syria. If the Americans have not been able to knock back Dash in Syria what will five or six RAF tornadoes do that will materially change the situation? I think it is very difficult to see that.\nI think there is also a failure to understand the politics \u2013 the politics of how do you deal in terms of the communications and win over communities who do not wish to be under that sort of regime but see them as the only people who will ultimately defend them, provide security or provide the services that the state would normally provide.\nYou can see that Dash has been able to provide the things that a state normally would and actually in getting your children to school and ensuring that you are safe on the streets they have delivered in a way that the Syrian opposition forces have notably failed to do. It is now the function of the state that people who are scared for their lives are most keen on seeing. And democracy is somewhere down the road. Jobs and livelihood are important.\nI am sure that has not sunk in. There are still politicians who say it is not a state. Well it is acting very much like a state whether we like it or not. It has its own currency, it has its own departments, it has its own civil servants, it is providing water and electricity. We have to realise this.\nIf we are truly going to take things forward in both Iraq and in Syria then it is going to take forward there needs to be regional and international will to deal with these issues. There needs to be a consensus in Iraq that the only way forward will be by trying to put aside historic differences and recent differences and realise that it can\u2019t be a win-lose scenario. Unfortunately to much politics in the Middle East has been on a winner-loser basis. Look at Egypt as being perhaps the most clear example of this. This does not work.\nYou have to find a way in which all communities in Iraq and also in Syria feel that they get something out of an eventual political settlement that can allow these countries to go forward in one way or another. It is not for me to say what that political settlement should be but it certainly needs to be an inclusive one. And it certainly should be one in which outside powers and regional powers are not interfering and not abusing proxies, arming their own and preferred politicians. And it will come back to haunt them whether it is Saudi Arabia, Iran, Turkey. If they interfere in neighbouring states as perhaps Turkey is finding out more than any of them right now it does actually risk destabilising their own territories.\nLaith Kubba: Thank you very much Chris for putting Iraq in this perspective which is both historical and global and as bleak as reality in Iraq is I actually see more light when I put it in the context of both history and global changes. The instability in Iraq and the security challenges in Iraq have moved beyond challenges. Now they have become existential challenges. What sort of Iraq is it going to be and what sort of changes are we going to see in the region? It is happening at a brutal cost of human suffering and this is the real challenge. For Iraqis themselves while many forces have aligned themselves to influence the trajectory of where Iraq is heading they ultimately have the will the power and the ability to influence that trajectory. Iraq is their country. I move to Karen and maybe we will have the whole thing from a different perspective as you give us a different angle on the challenges in Iraq.\nKaren Dabrowska at the launch of her new book, Iraq; the ancient sites & Iraqi Kurdistan\nKaren Dabrowska: Can I ask you a question? How many people do you think visited Iraq last year? The answer is 20 million Shia Muslims who took part in the Arbeen procession in Najaf. This is the world\u2019s largest gathering of people. And the pilgrims become tourists so Iraq had the largest number of tourists in 2014. There is some advice given to tourists and if everyone followed this advise the problems of Iraq would be solved: take nothing but photos, leave nothing but footprints, kill nothing but time.\nIraq the ancient sites and Iraqi Kurdistan is a travel guide. Of course it talks about history, culture, hotels and restaurants. But if you only read one page please read page 116 on putting something back and sponsor an orphan through World Wide Welfare.\nMost of the information for the book was collected first hand by my co-author Geoff Hann of Hinterland Travel. He is in Iraq now on another trip and he has been running trips to Iraq for the past 30 years with only a brief stop during the two Gulf wars. He was all ready to cross the border when the 2003 war broke out so he took went to Syria instead. Sadly he couldn\u2019t do so today.\nIn as triumph of hope over experience the Iraqi Tourism Board maintains a staff of 2,500 and 14 regional offices. (Maybe less now in view of Prime Minister Abadi\u2019s anti-corruption drive). Travel to Iraq is complex, sometimes maddening, often inconvenient. Nothing is certain. The main attractions in the whole country can be seen in 16 days.\nThe land between the two rivers Tigris and Euphrates is a jigsaw puzzle with three main pieces: 20% is the mountainous snow-clad north (Iraqi Kurdistan) the desert representing 59% (so when we say ISIS controls a third of Iraq a lot of what they control is essentially desert so inhospitable that even the scorpions and rattle snakes feel miserable there) and the southern alluvial plain with the marshlands home of the Marsh Arabs.\nYou may be wondering during this troubled time in Iraq what is the use of a travel guide? What is the point of history, culture, what can it do? It can give hope and point the way to a better future.\nLet me read you a news report of how one musician reacted to the violence. The cellist set down his chair on the Baghdad sidewalk, leaned his instrument on his knee, closed his eyes and began to play. The music rose above the buzz of the busy shopping street, where just a day earlier another devastating car bomb had exploded. A crowd drew in: policemen, passersby, friends of those killed by the blast. As the musician played the national anthem, the voices of the crowd rose with him. Karim Wasfi, conductor of the Iraqi National Symphony Orchestra, had decided to play amid the wreckage to drive home a message. Iraqis needed to experience beauty, not just endure one bomb after another.\nIn the introduction the book has a historical section. History has a lot of lessons for us. The Islamic state is talking about creating a caliphate \u2013 but have they read history? Do they know that the Abbasids emphasised the equality of all Muslims. There was no talk of Sunnis and Shias. A magnificent cultural renaissance spanned 750 \u2013 842 the reigns of the dynasty\u2019s first seven rulers. The arts were patronised and learning of every sort was encouraged. Classics from many languages were translated into Arabic at the House of Knowledge.\nMamun was a religious scholar and the second of the only two caliphs in Islamic history who knew the entire Koran by heart. Under his regime one day a week was always set apart for literary, and philosophical or scientific discussion. Advance thy arguments and answer without fear,\u201d said the caliph at the opening of a session for religious debate and answer without fear for there is none here that will not speak thee well. Let everyone speak, who has wisdom to demonstrate the strength of his religion. There are many records of religious debates between Muslims and non Muslims. Open discussions. We still have them now in Abrar House.\nIraq has become a land of oppression but in 1780BC Hammarubi King of Babylon promulgated his code of 282 laws whose guiding principle was that the strong may not oppress the weak. A champion of human rights long before Amnesty International.\nHow many of us realise that our superstitious impulse to turn back when a black cat crosses our path stems from the people of Babylon? Do they come to mind when we look at the twelve divisions on our watch face, when we buy eggs by the shock (sixty) when we look up at the stars to read our faith in their movements and conjunctions? The British coronation ceremony has elements of Mesopotamian rituals.\nAs author Hadani Ditmars pointed out, \u201cIraq, where language and architecture made their first appearance and a robust culture flourished and still struggles to survive, is now a country of widows and orphans, of angry young men and their rival militias. Its ancient sites, who have witnessed so many empires come and go, could unite Iraqis in their moment of crisis.\n\u201cThey are a reminder that long before the British or the Americans, long before IS or the Baath party, there was Uruk. Before there were Muslims or Christians, Sunni or Shi\u2019a, Arabs or Kurds, there was Mesopotamia. And there is a power in that a glimmer of hope amidst the madness.\u201d\nBut tragically Iraq\u2019s archaeological sites are under threat. Even before ISIS the seriousness of conditions caused by wars, sanctions, collapse of the infrastructure, looting, military bases stationed within the sites themselves accelerated decay to the point where the World Monuments Fund put an entire country on its biannual list of the one hundred most endangered sites. Some of the statues are now in the much maligned British Museum. Poet Elroy Flecker reminds us that:\nThere is a hall in Bloomsbury\nNo more dare I thread\nFor all the stone men shout and me\nAnd swear they are not dead.\nAnd once I touched a broken girl\nAnd new that marble bled\nToday Iraqi is bleeding. Please join me in observing a minute\u2019s silence for the victims of the senseless violence. Thank you.\nI will make a few brief comments about the north, central Iraq and the south.\nThe region of Kurdistan in the north is a fascinating place of natural beauty, warm friendly people and a long, interesting and often tragic history. The name of the book is Iraq the ancient sites and Iraqi Kurdistan. You can travel to Kurdistan on an Iraqi visa but you can\u2019t travel to the rest of Iraq on a Kurdish visa. The status of the Kurds is interesting as explained by a waiter in an Arbil hotel. \u201cWe have jam but we have no jam. That is because we are a people but we are no people. We are a nation but we have no nation.\u201d\nIn Arbil which I visited in March stands a statue of the Virgin Mary. The fact that this statue has been left untouched while most of the churches in Mosul just 60kms away says a lot Kurdistan. I don\u2019t need to say any more.\nBaghdad: The story of the city named the City of Peace by its founder (Abu Jaffar Al Mansour) is largely the story of continuous war. Sometimes war helps culture. A bomb ripped through Mutanabi Street, the famous book market on March 5, 2007. Writers and artists throughout the world expressed solidarity and support and through an international campaign Mutanabi street is almost as well known as the thousand and one nights. Wherever someone sits down to write towards the truth or someone sits down with a book, that that's where Al-Mutanabbi Street starts.\nThe Sunni Triangle and ISIS territory. Fallujah, one of the most dangerous places in Iraq if not in the world once had 200 mosques. It dates back to Babylonian times. During the Sassanid era (AD 277 \u2013 636) there were many warehouse for Persian troops which can still be seen today.\nAnbar. In January 2013 an arts festival as part of preparations to celebrate Baghdad as the Capital of Arab Culture was held in Anbar. The Culture House director Fawzi Mutlaq said: \u201cThe solidarity reflected in the art work, which depicted the indivisibility of the people in all their segments, set forth a model for brotherhood and endurance in the face of terror.\u201d\nLet us go back nearly 100 years. In 1923 the Narin brothers, New Zealanders set off across the desert in a taxi \u2013 three days later they arrived at the Maude Hotel in Baghdad. From then on they offered a mail, diplomatic bag and bullion transporting service to various embassies and consulates in Damascus and Baghdad across what is now ISIS territory.\nThe marshes, Iraq\u2019s first national park, are one of the most beautiful parts of Iraq. The area is lush with small boats gliding on the calm waterways. There are countless birds. The marshes drained by Saddam have been flooded again and the marsh Arabs were able to continue their tradition life style much as they had in Sumerian times. In May ISIS captured the Ramadi Dam and reportedly cut water supplies to government controlled areas further downstream \u2013 including the marshlands which are under threat once again.\nIn the south there are many small charming towns including Abul Khasib which has the highest density of palm trees in the world. There is Qurnah site of the legendary Garden of Eden. Sorry folks. The Garden of Eden is a concrete parking lot and tree of life is dead.\nWe are seeing a battle for the soul of Iraq as ISIS does its best to transform it into a howling wilderness devoid of civilization and culture and dominated by the most uncivilized of barbarians.\nThe Iraqi people were once like a necklace where the thread of nationality united a variety of unique and colourful beads. Today the thread holding the necklace together is becoming increasingly fragile as ethnic and religious conflicts continue to claim more and more lives.\nBanham Igzeer a Christian calligrapher who uses Biblical and Quranic verses described Mosul as a city which moved from co-existence to non existence as the Christians were ethnically cleansed. He is London now and is supposed to be retired but he said he will keep working until he can hold an exhibition in Baghdad, Mosul and Arbil.\nI would like to conclude with a quote from Gavin Young author of Iraq Land of Two Rivers which is found in the introduction to my book: \u201cIf the oil should ever run out, the twin rivers will still uncoil like giant pythons from their lairs in High Armenia across the northern plains, will edge teasingly closer near Baghdad, still sway apart lower down, still combine finally at the site \u2013 who knows for sure that it was not? \u2013 the Garden of Eden and flow commingled through silent date forests to the Gulf. Whatever happens, the rivers \u2013 the life-giving twin rivers for which Abraham, Nebuchadnezzar, Sennacherib, Alexander the Great, Trajan, Harun Al Rashid and a billion other dwellers in Mesopotamia must have raised thanks to their gods \u2013 will continue to give life to other generations.\u201d\nLaith Kubba: Thank you very much Karen. That changed the angle not only of how we see things but if how we feel about Iraq. Your book will give wonderful insights into the many many hidden layers of three of four civilisations that Iraq has. A different perspective while we are all very much grabbed by the tension of reality but I think putting it in that much bigger context changes how we feel about things. I go to Zuhair Al-Naher who is going to give a more political angle to what is going on.\nDr Zuhair Al-Naher: I thank the organisers of this debate for raising a very, very important topic the title of which is reforming Iraq, prospects and challenges. After the removal of Saddam Iraq was essentially a broken country. Broken because it had endured 30 years of war, tyranny and dictatorship. Its organisations were rotten to the core as a result of corruption, and as a result of the ten years of sanctions the mentality of scarcity not only demolished the institutions but also affected the people very deeply.\nIraq was ruined by Saddam and it has been ruined even more after Saddam. The challenges which Iraq was left with were multiple. In terms of corruption there was a lot of interference from the coalition which encouraged corruption. They turned a blind eye but they also encouraged it.\nThe political system that was set up at that time was based essentially on sectarian interests which remained a challenge and remain a challenge to this day. They are an obstacle to reform. The political establishment left much to be desired. There was a lack of experience in management. The army by the time Saddam left there was no army to speak of. Most of the army had deserted.\nSo when we talk about reforms in Iraq now, anyone who goes about reforming Iraq now has huge, huge challenges. Firstly the challenges are on many different levels. They are multifactorial. Reform needs to happen in the institutions, in the ministries, in the political system, in the judicial system, in economic system.\nThe previous governments did not address reform in the right way and when we talk about now this is why there are so many protests and demonstrations by the people because they have had enough. The demonstrations are country-wide and continuing. The religious leadership has supported this and the people have given the new prime minister, Haider Abadi, a mandate to strike with an iron fist at those who are corrupting the system.\nHaider Abadi faces a huge challenge. He faces challenges on many levels. He has made a start and it is only a start. The start is firstly to declare that he will eliminate many of the top positions which are bleeding the country of resources. So he has cut out the three vice presidents and deputy prime ministers. He has announced that the huge number of body guards for the officials must be cut down 90 percent in order to save and avoid wastage and those numbers to be put to the war effort against Dash rather than to protect individual officials.\nHe has announced that there should be more equalising of pay between the higher officials and the lower paid civil servants. He has put a programme forward of reforming the judiciary and to develop and reform the economy so that it is not dependent on oil and he tried to increase the farming sector and the industrial sector. He has also, and this very important, that political decisions will not be based on the sectarian interests of the various groups (muhassasa). This is to be eliminated. There will be no interests of groups. There will be the interest of Iraq. And he has put forward a system whereby ministers are scrutinised by independent committees for their ability to perform and for their levels of corruption.\nSo all of these are a start. He faces challenges as I have said. Most of the challenges he is facing are from the system that has been steeped in corruption and from political blocs who have their own interests at heart. He is trying to implement these changes but I believe that he is determined for these changes to be successful. He said he is determined to go through with these changes even if it costs his life.\nSo we must not get overly excited because as I said the challenges are huge but I believe this is a beginning and it is supported by the people who are determined to see change and reform in Iraq.\n* Chris Doyle is the Director of CAABU.

        "raw_content": "Srinagar, Jan 26 (KNS): The New York based rights organisation, Human Rights Watch in its recently released report has painted a grim picture of human rights in Jammu and Kashmir. It also held government responsible for failing to revoke AFSPA in the state.\nThe annual report of the year 2017 released this week by the Human Rights Watch stated that in the first 10 months of 2017, there were 42 reported militant attacks in the state of Jammu and Kashmir in which 184 people were killed, including 44 security force personnel.\nThe report also mentioned that in May, last year, the army gave a commendation to an officer who used a bystander unlawfully as a \u201chuman shield\u201d to evacuate security personnel and election staff from a mob in Jammu and Kashmir\u2019s Budgam district.\n\u201cThe government failed to review and repeal the abusive Armed Forces Special Powers Act (AFSPA), in force in Jammu and Kashmir and in parts of India\u2019s northeastern region, which gives soldiers who commit violations effective immunity from prosecution. At time of writing, the government had yet to comply with a Supreme Court ruling civilian authorities should investigate all allegations of violations by troops,\u201d reads the report.\nThe report also stated that Children\u2019s education was frequently disrupted in areas facing conflict and violent protests. \u201cClashes between protesters and security forces in Jammu and Kashmir state that began in July 2016, continued to simmer throughout 2017, leading to frequent closing of schools and colleges. In May 2017, a student was killed by paramilitary forces inside a government school in Anantnag district during a violent protest,\u201d the report mentioned.\nIt also talked about the internet shutdowns that have become so frequent in the Valley. the report claimed by November 2017, internet was shut by the state authorities 27 times. \u201cIn August, the government issued rules to govern temporary shutdown of the internet and telecommunications services in the event of a public emergency or public safety [issue]. However, the rules do not specify what the government considers to be a public emergency, or a threat,\u201d the report added. (KNS)",

        "title": "Landscape Trades - A case study: A contractor's blind reliance on contractual terms",
        "raw_content": "A case study: A contractor\u2019s blind reliance on contractual terms\nIn 2009, homeowners hired a swimming pool company to install a pool in their backyard, complete with a concrete patio and landscaping around it. Cracks appeared in the concrete, within the warranty period. The contractor refused to correct the problem. The owner had to fix it (and other miscellaneous items) for a little over $36,000. The owner then sued the contractor.\nThe contract was a three-page document on the contractor\u2019s letterhead. The second page of the contract provided, among other things, that soil testing was the responsibility of the owner and that the contractor would be held harmless for damage caused by soil conditions. The second page also included warranty provisions which, among other things, provided that \u201cacts of God\u201d were not covered by the warranty.\nThe contractor argued the cracking was caused by a combination of soil conditions under the deck and an act of God (being rain, which collected in the soils). It thus argued that it was relieved of responsibility. The contractor, however, had placed the soils under the decking.\nThe court didn\u2019t buy the contractor\u2019s position. It held that the materials under the deck were clayey silt, which the contractor itself had excavated from the pool area. On expert evidence, the court found the cracking was caused by the freeze-thaw cycles of water which was trapped by the impervious clay beneath the concrete. Not surprisingly, the court did not hold the owner responsible to test the clayey silt, which the contractor chose to use. It did not hold the owner responsible for the soil conditions and did not find the trapped water to be an \u2018act of God.\u2019\nAlthough it was probably unnecessary to do so, the court held that the contractor could not rely on the \u2018fine-print\u2019 of page two, because the contractor had not drawn the owner\u2019s attention to it before she signed the contract. In this regard, the court relied on Tilden Rent-A-Car Company v. Clendenning, a case of the Ontario Court of Appeal, where Tilden took no steps to alert a client, at the rental-counter at an airport and when everyone was in a hurry, of the onerous provisions in its standard form of contract. In Tilden, the Court had gone so far as to quote a well known English Jurist, Lord Denning, who had once stated, \u201cwe do not allow printed forms to be made a trap for the unwary.\u201d\nThe reliance on Tilden goes somewhat against the grain of other cases in Ontario and elsewhere in the country where parties to the contract have been held to the strict language of their bargain, often where the \u2018bargain\u2019 is set out in 100-page contract documents.\nAs above, it was probably not necessary for the court to rely on Tilden to avoid the application of the page two warranty provisions. This is because \u2018soil conditions\u2019 could reasonably have been interpreted to be in-situ, native conditions and because the water build-up could easily have been attributed to the contractor\u2019s placement of clay and not the rains of an act of God.\nThe court\u2019s reference to Tilden, however, illustrates how a court can and will find a way, where necessary, to avoid the impact of harsh contractual language on a party whom the court believes is being taken advantage of. In this regard, a distinction can be drawn between the circumstance where a contractor puts a standard form contract in front of an unsophisticated or residential client and the circumstance where sophisticated contractors and owners enter into sophisticated and often very lengthy contracts.\nPart of the lesson to be learned from this case is, accordingly, that contractors who work with residential clients should do what they can to ensure their clients understand what they are agreeing to when they sign contracts. This, of course, includes ensuring they understand the scope of work. It also includes ensuring they understand the nuances of the contracts they are being asked to sign. It is good risk management, for example, to take your clients through the contract to explain how the contract works; having the client initial each page as you do so will also help to prevent the imposition of the Tilden Rent-a-Car line of thinking.\nIn the end, the contractor\u2019s efforts to deflect responsibility to the owner were costly in this case. After six day trial, the contractor was held liable to pay the owner over $36,000. The court found the contractor\u2019s conduct throughout the litigation to have been unreasonable, and found the owner had beaten its offer to settle. Accordingly, the court ordered the contractor to pay $100,000 in costs to the owner.\nIn addition, and without any supporting evidence, the contractor had added the concrete supplier as a third party, arguing the cracking was attributable to the concrete mix. It was required to pay the concrete supplier a further $47,000 in costs. When we consider the contractor had to pay its own lawyer (at least) $100,000 in costs, the contractor, who could have repaired the concrete for $20,000 or $30,000, ended up paying over $280,000.\nRob Kennaley and Josh Winter practice construction law in Toronto and Simcoe, Ont.

At every grade level, several times a year there are major \"studies,\" which gives students a time to delve deeply and broadly into a topic. Instead of breaking down subjects - math, ELA, science, social studies - into separate fields, those subjects are all incorporated into the topic. This approach reaches all types of learners and gets students excited about learning, while reinforcing the basics and teaching higher level skills, like scientific observation and collaboration.\nFor example, in 2nd Grade, there is the Habitat Study. Students read science books and keep journals about animal habitats and eventually create a play to tell the story of animal habitats. One year, the students took a field trip to see creatures in their habitats.\nThere is an in-depth look at space through a Space Carnival in 3rd Grade.\n... and a 4th Grade Business Study where students create their own business plans, and share them with their peers. (Here, presenting their work to the CEO of Rising Tide Capital, who gave them real-world feedback.)\nIt is through this style of experiential, hands-on learning that students grow and thrive.\nTechnology: In 4th and 5th Grades, students take a dedicated Technology class that covers everything from how the Internet works to search techniques and online research skills to online safety and coding.\nLearning Lab: LCCS's Gifted and Talented program for Grades 3-8 meets twice a week and allows children to explore independent projects with guidance from LCCS instructors.\nPeer-to-Peer: There are many opportunities for older students to pair with younger peers - in assemblies with \"Circle Buddies,\" and as \"Reading Buddies,\" where younger students practice their reading skills with older friends, or when older students share their work with younger children.\nLanguage: Students begin taking Spanish in Kindergarten and can continue through 8th Grade or opt into Mandarin Chinese in 5th Grade.\nSchedule: The school day is broken into 9 periods, with daily recess and gym twice a week.\nSpecial events: There is a Spelling Bee for 4th and 5th Grades in January.",

Nice that they are all older now and we are all growing and learning together. They amaze me at the wisdom they have. It seems like the answer to some of my problems should be as easy as... \"JUST DON'T THINK ABOUT IT THAT WAY, OR DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT\". For me that has always been easier said than done, for I have always been a PLEASER, oh... I know that isn't good or healthy for me but old habits are hard to break. Today I once again had an experience like that and I sit here and wonder why some things are so hard to learn or change. Then I remembered these quotes...\n\"It takes a lot of courage to release the familiar and seemingly secure, to embrace the new. But there is no real security in what is no longer meaningful. There is more security in the adventurous and exciting, for in movement there is life, and in change there is power.\" ~ Alan Cohen\n\"If you have always done it that way, it is probably wrong.\" ~ Charles Kettering\nAnd so I will go to bed and try again tomorrow to be the person I need to be and just remember to keep trying. Good night dear friends, thanks for all you teach me.\nLabels: change, experience, growth, learning, Sanity",

        "raw_content": "Facts About An Omaha Personal Injury Attorney\nMay 9, 2013 - by Collin Keyes\nPersonal injury or accidental injury lawyers handle many types of cases including auto accidents, work injuries and wrongful death. An Omaha Personal Injury Attorney must attend law school and pass a state bar exam to practice law in this state. If you are interested in hiring an accidental injury lawyer, below are some facts you should know.\nThe specific requirements that attorneys must have to practice law vary by state, but they are all similar. A student must first have a four year undergraduate degree and pass an admissions test before they can be accepted into law school. This test is a requirement to evaluate the students\u2019 logical reasoning and reading skills that are essential for completing law school. After passing the test, students will then attend law school for three years.\nAfter graduation and before they can start practicing law, lawyers have to pass a test called the bar exam. Certain laws vary in each state, so each state has its own exam based on its specific laws. A separate test must be taken for each state in which they will practice law. This test will last two days and it covers principles of the law and legal doctrine. In some states, lawyers must additionally pass an exam concerning ethics.\nPersonal injury lawyers try all types of cases in which people have been injured, but were not at fault. These include automobile or motorcycle accidents or being hit by a drunk driver. Other accidental injury cases come about from injuries at work. Being attacked or bitten by a dog is also considered personal injury. Serious injury cases may include spinal cord or brain injuries or the wrongful death of a family member.\nIf you have been hurt or in an accident through no fault of your own, you may be able to receive repayment for medical expenses and lost pay from work. An Omaha Personal Injury Attorney will be able to advise you on the law and what you may be entitled to receive. You may also be able to recoup your legal fees for hiring a lawyer for representation. This type of case is often tried in a courtroom and decided by a jury. Other times, both parties may decide to forgo a trial and settle the case out of court.\nTaggedlaw firm\nPrevious Article Hiring a Defense Attorney Murfreesboro For a Fresh Start\nNext Article Three Reasons to Visit a Social Security Attorney",

        "raw_content": "Little examination of Jamaican popular music is necessary to reveal the creativity of Leroy Sibbles. The charismatic singer, bass player, arranger, and songwriter is best known for his work as lead vocalist of The Heptones, but a closer look at his session career reveals an enormous contribution to the feel and direction of Jamaican music through one of its most creative eras.\nAs ska slowed to rock steady in the mid to late 1960s, Sibbles occupied a key position at the 13 Brentford Road studio of Clement \u201cCoxson\u201d Dodd. In addition to his work with The Heptones, Sibbles was a session bassist and arranger at Studio One during a time that much of Jamaica\u2019s most enduring popular music was recorded.\nSibbles and Heptones\u2019 co-founders Barry Llewellyn and Earl Morgan met in the mid 1960s, around the time Sibbles\u2019 first group auditioned for Duke Reid\u2019s Treasure Isle studio. Reid declined the opportunity to record that group. Llewllyn and Morgan recruited Sibbles and formed the Heptones, and Ken Lack of Caltone accepted the trio was accepted for a session. Sibbles describes the initial chemistry of the three singers. \u201cIt\u2019s a spiritual thing . . . cause is not nothing that was planned that we said \u2018this is exactly what we wanted.\u2019 We came from Trenchtown. As kids growing up, the direction was there for us. It happened. Like magic. It was nothing that we studied . . . When we get together, that magic always comes about.\u201d The trio\u2019s initial recordings for Lack were \u201cSchool Girls\u201d and \u201cGun Man Coming to Town.\u201d Though the songs didn\u2019t achieve hit status, the latter composition made the playlists at Radio Jamaica Rediffusion (RJR) and fueled the trio\u2019s determination.\nIn the early years, Sibbles was arc welding during the day and managed to buy a guitar with the money he saved. \u201cThe guys were still doing their day jobs, and I stayed home and start writing almost every night. I was writing and arranging, and I loved it. Putting all those ideas [that] I didn\u2019t know I had in me \u2014 just pouring out like water. Everyday I wrote a new song and every night the guys would come to rehearse . . . I started picking up [guitar] lessons from this Rastaman named Huntly, he was the first to show me the scales, and [I] started [to] learn chords and positions. I was so hungry to learn . . . The more I learned, the bigger songs I could write. The whole thing was a new life, a new world . . . Everywhere you saw me I had my guitar back then. I wouldn\u2019t go nowhere without it. I would be writing songs, and inspiration would be flowing like water, anywhere \u2014 daytime, nighttime, wherever I am.\u201d\nThe Heptones were among the most prolific and influential groups of the rock steady era, along with the Pioneers, Gaylads, Paragons, Hamlins, Uniques, and Techniques. Signature Heptones songs included \u201cBaby,\u201d \u201cGet In The Groove,\u201d \u201cTing A Ling,\u201d \u201cFattie Fattie,\u201d \u201cGot To Fight On (To The Top),\u201d \u201cParty Time,\u201d and \u201cSweeting Talking.\u201d The group\u2019s Studio One output has been collected on albums The Heptones, On Top, Ting A Ling, Freedom Line, and the more recent Heartbeat anthology, Sea of Love.\nIn retrospect, Sibbles regards the Heptones\u2019 album On Top among his best work. \u201cOn Top pleases me very much. It is a work that I am really satisfied with a song called \u2018Love Me Girl,\u2019 I like that. And another called \u2018Guiding Star.\u2019 The other song that I like from the On Top album is called \u2018Pure Sorrow.\u2019 I like the progression in that song.\u201d\nThe transition from the blazing rhythms of ska to its mellower offspring, rock steady, was one of the most important changes in the history of Jamaican popular music. Rock steady was characterized by several elements. Most prominent was the drop of snare drum on the third beat of the measure (which would also be found in reggae). Rock steady adapted from ska a rhythmic emphasis on every upbeat, but the rhythm guitarist played this part instead of a saxophonist. Rock steady was more rigid than later reggae, which would readapt some of the looser polyrhythmic characteristics of Jamaican mento, particularly the use of triplets. The \u201cbig band\u201d horn melodies of ska were broken down to sax and trombone for rock steady but remained an essential melodic component of the music. Sweet vocal harmonies like those of the Heptones, influenced by North American soul and rhythm & blues, were also key ingredients.\nrecalls how the Heptones fit into the musical landscape of the period. \u201cWhen we were listening as kids to music, it was ska. Bob Marley was doing ska. Toots & the Maytals, Delroy Wilson was doing ska. Even as a kid . . . I was singing some Delroy Wilson songs, which was really up-tempo . . . Then, when we got together, our kind of music was much slower than the ska thing. I would not say that the Heptones were the ones who changed the music, but we know that we were responsible for the change too. Because when we started, we started with songs like \u2018A Change Has Got To Come.\u2019 And it was much slower than what was happening. We were a part of the change for sure. We started doing songs like \u2018Ting A Ling A Ling,\u2019 and dem songs deh.\u201d\nSibbles retains fond memories of the time The Heptones first tasted success. \u201cWe felt that we were a part of something. And that felt really good. We had a purpose in the world. That was one of the greatest things, the greatest feelings. We were somebody . . . We had a say for once in our lives. And that was the most important thing. We weren\u2019t even thinking of money. When we did these songs, . . . and we see how people respond in our community all around us. That was the most important thing. \u201d\nThe first time I heard my song on the radio was the thrill of my life . . . I run out of my yard down the lane. \u2018Listen! That\u2019s me!\u2019 Yeah, like \u2018the British are coming,'\u201d recalls Sibbles.\nBeyond his work as a singer/songwriter, Sibbles\u2019 contribution as a bass player to the collective output and enduring legacy of Studio One is perhaps his greatest achievement. Sibbles was encouraged to learn the bass by Jamaican musical giant and Studio One keyboardist/arranger Jackie Mittoo, who needed a bass player for live performances of a lounge trio.\nWhen Mittoo left full time duties at Studio One, Sibbles arranged sessions, sang harmony, and played bass as a part of the studio crew variously known as the Soul Vendors or Sound Dimension. These musicians, with the notable aid of engineer Sylvan Morris, dropped their rhythms behind vocalists Bob Andy, Alton Ellis, Horace Andy, Carlton Manning, The Abyssinians, The Gladiators, Willi Williams, Ken Boothe, John Holt, Burning Spear, Dennis Brown, Slim Smith, and scores of others. Sibbles was a key contributor to tracks like Roy Richards\u2019 \u201cFreedom Blues,\u201d \u201cLove Me Forever\u201d by Carlton & The Shoes, \u201cSatta Amassaganna\u201d and \u201cDeclaration of Rights\u201d by the Abyssinians, \u201cStars\u201d and \u201cQueen of the Minstrel\u201d by Cornell Campbell, \u201cTen To One\u201d by the Mad Lads, \u201cDoor Peep\u201d by Burning Spear, and instrumentals like \u201cReal Rock\u201d and \u201cFull Up.\u201d\nBecause of the Jamaican process of versioning and the liberal recycling of rhythms in subsequent years, many of the songs, rhythms, and melodies written and recorded during the rock steady era continued to adorn the sound of Jamaican music for the next 30 years. The best known of all of Sibbles\u2019 collaborations is probably the instrumental \u201cFull Up,\u201d popularized internationally by Musical Youth\u2019s recording of \u201cPass the Dutchie,\u201d an adaptation of the Mighty Diamonds\u2019 \u201cPass the Kutchie.\u201d Sibbles\u2019 legacy also endures in Horace Andy\u2019s tribute to him, \u201cMr. Bassie.\u201d Also well known is the ubiquitous \u201cReal Rock\u201d instrumental, later voiced by Willi Williams as \u201cArmagideon Time\u201d and internationalized by the Clash.\nThe bass parts Sibbles and others developed in rock steady utilized a rhythmic space found in later roots reggae, where the notes weren\u2019t necessarily played or sustained on each downbeat of a 4/4 measure. But Sibbles further differentiates his style from his bass playing contemporaries like Jackie Jackson, Boris Gardiner, and Aston Barrett. \u201cWhen I started playing professionally, I created my style. I realized that most musicians start before the [down] beat or on the beat. So I created a thing after the beat. And that took off, and right now it makes me stand out in the history of reggae music as a bass man.\u201d\nOther musicians involved in the Studio One rock steady sessions included Richard Ace on keyboards; Bunny Williams, Joe Isaacs, and Fil Callendar on drums; Eric Frater and Ernest Ranglin on guitar, and the often underappreciated horn section of Felix \u201cDeadley Headley\u201d Bennett on saxophone and Vin Gordon (a.k.a. \u201cDon D. Jr.\u201d) on trombone.\nControversy over Dodd\u2019s contribution to the musical product at Studio One will continue forever, but predictably, Sibbles corroborates the claims of his colleagues that Dodd\u2019s role was generally limited to the business side of the operation. \u201cCoxson is known all over the world as the producer. [But] we [studio musicians] were producing the songs. Coxson was the executive producer. That\u2019s what Coxson is . . . [Dodd] don\u2019t know a G note from a F note. He can\u2019t identify a musical instrument\u2019s chord or key, or nothing like that. But he has the studio, and he has the finance to do it, so that makes him an executive. The producer is the guy who sits inside and . . . gets into his soul to find the right thing, or the thing that works.\n\u201cThat\u2019s the only part of [the Studio One experience] that bugs me. Because that is the inspiration that God gave me, for me to live off too.\u201d\nAfter growing frustrated from high demands and lack of remuneration at Studio One, Sibbles and the Heptones recorded for other producers including Lee Perry, Harry Johnson, JoJo HooKim, Niney The Observer, Clive Chin, Gussie Clarke, Lloyd Campbell, Prince Buster, Ossie Hibbert, Phil Pratt, Harry Mudie, Geoffrey Chung, Danny Holloway, Rupie Edwards, and Joe Gibbs. Sibbles recalls his association with Joe Gibbs with some irritation. \u201cI\u2019m the first person who ever helped Joe Gibbs in the music business. Joe Gibbs came to town, to Kingston, and opened a little electronic shop, repairing transistor radios and stuff. That is what he started out doing. He had a little shop downtown [on] Parade. And he met me, and he wanted us to go into the recording business. And he got this little singer called Errol Dunkley, who sings \u2018every man does his thing a little way different.\u2019 Then Joe Gibbs called me, and I would sit down with Errol Dunkley and work the songs out to get them ready for recording, with my little box guitar. And I would straighten these songs out for nothing at all, free of cost.\u201d\nOther Heptones releases from the early \u201970s were Book of Rules (Trojan) and the lesser-known Harry Johnson-produced album Cool Rasta (Trojan), recorded just before the group benefited from the internationalization of reggae via Island Records. The Danny Holloway-produced Night Food and Lee \u201cScratch\u201d Perry-produced Party Time were the fruit of the association with Island. Sibbles left the Heptones from 1977 to 1995.\nAs a solo artist, Sibbles worked with Lloyd \u201cBullwackie\u201d Barnes, Lloyd Parks, Sly & Robbie, Augustus Pablo, and Lee Perry, but primarily produced himself. Sibbles moved to Canada in 1973 and became a sizable pop reggae star, but he feels in retrospect he lost touch with the currency of Jamaican music. \u201cI think that [moving to Canada] was the worst thing that I ever did, because I just went so far and couldn\u2019t go no further there. I was trying my best to keep up as much as I could, but I lost touch with what was happening here in Jamaica.\u201d In Canada, Sibbles won a Juno award, recorded an album for A&M and cut several good albums for Pete Weston\u2019s Micron label. These include one of his best albums, Strictly Roots, a heavy drum & bass workout backed by the Roots Radics.\nIn recent years Sibbles has been working on new material at his studio in Kingston. He\u2019s also producing for popular artists, up and coming lyricists, and composing new songs. In the near future, he plans to release more original material.\nDespite his ambivalence about certain aspects of his career, Sibbles has always felt that music is his raison d\u2019etre. \u201cAfter a while one day I sat down and said \u2018my God this was my destiny,\u2019 ya\u2019know this music thing and what ever power it was, was showing it to me all the time from when I was a kid . . . it took me all my lifetime to realize that, yeah mon. I realize I was made for this.\n\u201cWhen I was from about nine years old, I used to have a vision. When I sleep at night, I used to see myself float off the ground to the height of a telephone pole. I was floating . . . and a crowd would gather and would be pointing up at me. And I\u2019d be looking down at them . . . and that vision used to haunt me. And I could never understand what that meant. And it was . . . while I was living in Canada, . . . the [vision] start coming back to me again. \u201cAnd it hit me one day, and you know what I saw out of that vision? Myself on stage . . . I\u2019m telling you . . . I was made for this . . . And no matter where I go in the world, whenever I sing for people, they understand, they love it, and it comes naturally.\u201d\n\u2013 Carter Van Pelt",

        "raw_content": "By Unknown September 21, 2012\nThis week saw the launch of iOS6, the latest in Apple's mobile operating system iterations. For the most part, it's been a decent incremental upgrade, with lots of new little tweaks, such as Facebook integration, and the ability to update applications without inputing a password. However, the big feature that's been getting all the press is the new mapping app.\nIn Apple's bid to rid themselves of Google \"taint\", they decided to make their own mapping service, but I think it's become very apparent, that it's not as easy as it looks. Many places are mis-located, or labels are wrong (especially internationally), causing no end to the hilarity of people posting screenshots of mistakes. There's a reason why Google Maps is king, and it's based on why my friend Wes so aptly put forth, that Google is a data company, and Apple is not (yet). Providing good mapping data requires good... well... data. Google has it. Apple, and other competitors don't.\u2026\nA crab in the Apple tree\nToday, I was among many geeks who, like the high school guy nervously awaiting the prom dance to end and the exit to the hotel room, awaited my semi regular dose of Apple branded technology porn. When the announcement of the iPhone 5 arrived, it was the same drug, administered with all the flourish and expectation of many similar injections of years past. We got to see all the leaked features put on full display, from the larger screen, to the oh so luscious LTE wireless speed. The device had everything we've been asking for, and even a few nice surprises like the new connector that you can insert in the dark, and it doesn't matter if it's upside down or not. The display was beautiful, the design and form factor was polished, and everything was exactly as we expected.\nBut wait! There was more! The iPod Nano got a complete redesign as well. The Nano is one of those products that can't seem to settle on a shirt to put on in the morning. It's worn the skinny tie, the\u2026\nStart a fire with some kindling\nYesterday was a big day for Amazon.com. They announced a whole new lineup of e-readers and tablets for their Kindle line of products. Many a pundit said that they were going after Apple in their latest play, and to some degree I think there's some small truth to that, but I don't think that's the whole story.\nIn fact, I think the first person that Amazon is trying to take down is Barnes & Noble. B&N's Nook tablet has been their answer to the Kindle for a few years now, and from a technology and feature standpoint, the two have been leap-frogging each other. Before the Kindle announcements yesterday there was the Nook with glow-light, so you can read in the dark. The ad for this device played constantly on TV in recent months, and I'm sure it caught the eye of more than a few customers. Yesterday Amazon answered with a version of it's own, that also upped the ante by including a capacitive touch screen, a step up from the Nook version.\nOn the high end, B\u2026\nSwinging a sack of doorknobs\nThis past weekend, the traditional Fall ritual took place, of stuffing hundreds of dollars of school supplies into backpacks that will then be placed on my children's backs, giving them a hunchback that would make Quasimodo jealous. As I was trying to cram in just one more 1.5-inch 3 ring binder, I started asking myself... \"Self, why in the world are we teaching these kids to subsist on physical media still???\" I didn't bother to answer my own question, because that would have made it a 2-way conversation, and I think there's supposedly something wrong with talking to yourself. But, I did start to take stock of all the paper, pens, pencils and composition books, and realized that maybe our education system needs to start embracing technology beyond learning PowerPoint, and playing Math Blaster.\nOK, I realize I'm being a little harsh there, but my point is that when I look at how I use technology in my work and personal life, it's very often as a productiv\u2026\nComputers as work\nThe history of Labor Day is one of a celebration of work. For most people, work is a part of our lives, and taking a moment to honor that reality, and the history of how labor has developed is a worthwhile pursuit. But it got me thinking about how what we look at as work has changed in my lifetime.\nWhen I was growing up, the career path for the computer field involved going to school to study Computer Science, and spending a lot of time working with mainframes, microchip design and so on. It wasn't really a field that interested me. With the advent of the internet, suddenly everything changed, and the practical nature of technology started to shape and create a new reality in our lives. Suddenly we were all able to interact with a growing, networked, world in a completely different way than we ever had before, and it was in this practical environment that my love of technology was nurtured.\nThis wasn't something that only existed for myself, but millions of other individuals s\u2026",

Ponder, Jr., PE, General Manager\nBennett Howell, Project Engineer\n1006 N. Bowen Road\nIT Project No. 42-3023\nLOAN STYLE HTAE\nDate of Inspection: January 7, 1991\nSite Inspector: Bennett Howell\nThe Hwy. 287 near Broad Street property is located in the City of Mansfield, Tarrant County, Texas (Mapsco Location 124Q) approximately 2500 feet northwest of the intersection of Hwy. 287 and Broad Street, as shown on Figure 1. The site inspection was conducted on January 7, 1991, by Mr. Bennett Howell of International Technology Corporation (IT).\nAll of the 15.7-acre property is overgrown with small trees and grass. The site is fenced with a barbed-wire fence along the northern, eastern, and western boundaries. The southern boundary is open to an adjacent field.\nReview of aerial photographs from 1964 to 1990 reveal that the land and surrounding land have always been undeveloped farm and pasture land except when James McKnight Park was built on the northwest boundary of the property.\nNo facilities with aboveground tanks were observed within a 1/2-mile radius of the property. There are three facilities with a total of eleven underground storage tanks -(USTs) within a 1/2-mile radius of the property.\nField investigation (i.e., soil borings, well installation) or other quantitative/qualitative-limited samplings were not undertaken. The findings of the report are based solely on visible observation of the site and review of federal and state regulatory and city and county records.\nBased upon the Level I Environmental Site Assessment, there does not appear to be any environmental concerns at the property at the time of the report. IT Corporation recommends that a Level II investigation is not warranted at this time.\nThis report was produced for the exclusive use of NCNB-Texas.\n7. REGULATORY/GOVERNMENT AGENCY INQUIRIES\nA review of environmental regulatory records was performed to determine if the property has faced or is currently facing any regulatory actions, fines, or violations for conditions that would have an environmental impact on the property.\n7.1 Federal and State Regulatory Agency inquiries\nThe following federal information sources were reviewed to determine suspected or confirmed sites of environmental concern within a three-mile radius of the subject property:\nU.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) National Priorities List (NPL); and\nUSEPA Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Information System (CERCLIS), Region VI, Dallas.\nThere are no NPL sites located within three miles of the property.\nA CERCLIC site was located approximately 2.8 miles southeast of the site at Miller S. and Southern Pacific Railroad tracks. The site is:\nBritton General Store\nEPA ID No. TXD981601784\nCarla Richardson, EPA-Dallas, was contacted about the site. Ms. Richardson said the site was inspected in November 1986 and was on the CERCLIS list due to the pesticides and herbicides and similar items sold at the store.\nThe following state information sources were reviewed to determine suspected or confirmed sites of environmental concern within a 1/2-mile radius of the subject property:\nTexas Water Commission (TWC) Underground Storage Tanks (UST) Regulation List; and\nTWC Leaking Underground Storage Tank (LUST) List.\nA review of the TWC lists revealed eleven registered USTs at three sites within a 1/2-mile radius of the subject property. None of the three sites were on the TWC LUST list.\n7.2 Local Government Inquiries\nCity of Mansfield, City of Fort Worth, and Tarrant County governmental offices were contacted. At the time of submittal of this report, replies from the various offices had not been received. This information will be reviewed and forwarded to NCNB-Texas for inclusion in our report as soon as it is received.",

It may not be the way we're used to, with red and green lights denying or approving access. As the signal moves through its cycle there are many precious seconds when the intersection isn't doing its job: No vehicles are in it.\"\n\"Kenny Robinson of the Virginia Department of Transportation says there's a better way to move vehicles through certain junctions. He's working on such a project in Loudoun County: Constructing four roundabouts along Routes 50 and 15 in the Gilbert's Corner area.\"\nRoute 15 is closed between Route 50 and the newly built connector road called Howsers Branch Drive, about a quarter-mile south of Gilbert's Corner. Drivers are now using Howsers Branch Drive and a new roundabout on Route 50. That detour will be in place through May. This is likely to add five minutes to trips at off-peak times and up to 10 at rush hour. As the project unfolds over the next few months, more detours are planned for Route 50 and Watson Road.\nPosted by admin at 6:14 PM Labels: Gilbert's Corner, Roundabouts, VDOT\nI can understand why a roundabout is a good idea at Gilbert's Corner the intersection of 50 and 15 but why are the other roundabouts necessary?",

        "raw_content": "Memorial Service, May 24, 2008\nWhen the sun finally drops below the horizon in the early evening, evidence of its work remains for some time. The skies continue to glow for a full hour after its departure.\nIn the same way, when a good or a great person's life comes to its final sunset, the skies of this world are illuminated until long after he is out of view. Such a person does not die from this world, for when he departs he leaves much of himself behind - and being dead, he still speaks. Henry Ward Beecher\nToday we had a memorial service for our father/father-in-law/grandfather/greatgrandfather Wunschl. It was a roller coaster ride of emotions: sadness , loss, remembrance, joy. We bonded together as a family like never before as we strove to honor the memory of a man who had been a force in our lives for so long. Three people shared memories of Opa today: Halley, his granddaughter, Tifany, his grandson's wife and Martha, his daughter-in-law. I am going to publish their comments in full. Each were perfect in their own unique way.\nHalley:\n\"I was lucky enough to have three amazing grandparents in my life until last year - few people get that chance. My grandmothers taught me how to bake, how to sew, how to live with grace, how to be a strong woman. I am ever glad for them, especially today, because I need every bit of that strength as I say goodbuy to the only grandfather I had the joy to know. When my dad told me Opa was gone, I had such a mix of emotions, I just sat and stared, on the curb, numb with grief, reaching out for something as strong as the love I'd enjoyed every day of my life from him.\n\"Over the last few months, I had watched Opa's courage, his spirit, and his never-ending love for his family with awe and so much gratitude to be loved by him, and somehow through all the hours I had sat with him, laughed with him and talked to him, I did not know how to let go despite knowing I would have to. Honestly, I still don't. but, life plays a kaleidoscope of images for me - images of fishing, pigeons, shopping trips, gardening and making Barbie places from wooden doweling. I remember the hugs, the jokes, and the signature that kept me in college. I remember the gypsy eggs, the speck at Christmastime, he at the end of the table, myself next to him. I remember too the example that was set for me by my grandparents about marriage - a give and take, a labor of love.\n\"Someday, I will get married, and I can only hope to find what I saw from them every day. Every morning I was in their home, Opa would make Oma sandwiches and tea. It was an act of giving that showed the commitment that would give them 63 years of marriage, and teach me the meaning of devotion. The last time I saw Opa, it was late on Frideay night. I was going home, tired, and walked out into the living room. The scene there will be burned in my mind forever. Oma was sleeping on the couch, turned so I was sure she had fallen alseep watching Opa to be certain he was alright. He sat in his chair, watching CNN. Every moment or two, he would look over at Oma and then back at the television. I stood in the hallway for awhile, absorbing that scene. When people try to define what it means to be successful, to be happy, to have love in their lives, this should be on the first line.\n\"There are a lot of things I don't know about how to let go of Opa, how to move on without him, but when I get lonely I try to remember him standing in his garden; perfect neat rows, an ingenious watering system, and always a huge hug when I ran to him in bare feet. I will miss those hugs, his voice on the other end of the phone, sitting in his chair, I will miss knowing he is there if need him. There are so many things I could like that I will miss, but most of all I hope he knows how very much I will miss my Opa, and how much I love him - my grandfather, role model, cheerleader, and friend.\nTifany:\nGood Morning. I am Tifany Wunschl and I am Michael Wunschl\u2019s granddaughter. Well, granddaughter by marriage, but I think anyone that ever met Opa feels the same way that I do. When you met Opa, you immediately felt like family. Opa loved to be around people. He loved to cook and whenever you went to his home, he cooked like he was feeding a small army. I was introduced to all of his German classic foods and he prided himself that he cooked just like his mother.\nOpa\u2019s other favorite thing to do when he was around people was to tell stories. Opa never dwelled on bad things or complained about anything. When Opa told war stories, they were never about death or sad times. He always told the fun side, like when he was injured and the hospital had beer pipes that ran over each bed and all you had to do was put your stein up to the tap and you could have beer at any moment.\nHe told the story of looking for his family after the war and seeing Oma\u2019s backside and declaring \u201cI\u2019m going to marry that woman\u201d. Three months later, they were married. When I first met Oma and Opa, I told my husband that if we could have that kind of relationship, we were very lucky people. Anyone who met Oma and Opa could sense the love and friendship that they shared.\nSome of my favorite stories were when Opa joined the black market after the war to feed his family. These were probably some of the hardest days in their lives, but Opa always told the stories with pride and love. My favorite is when he took a pig and put it in the sidecar of their motorcycle so they could butcher it at home. I\u2019m not even going to tell the story because I cannot do it justice. But it ends with the pig jumping out of the motorcycle in front of a theatre that was letting out and Opa chasing it down the street.\nI didn\u2019t know how to end my speech today. I have a lot of thoughtful things I could say, but I decided to end it how Opa would want me too. Opa\u2019s heritage is German and Yugoslavian. When Opa toasted, we always said Bog Daj Wita which means \u201cGod Give More\u201d in Yugoslavian. So if everyone would join me in a toast. \u201cTo Opa, you will forever be in our hearts. Bog Daj Wita.\u201d\nHe was dad, opa mischi and my boo.\nHe was a loving son, brother, husband, father, grandfather and great-grandfather.\nHe worked countless, grueling hours in \"the shop\" to care for his family.\nHe was a master craftsman, the son of a tinsmith who roofed the village church.\nOne Spring day, he built kites for his sons from reeds and some drafting paper he brought home from the shop. Then he attached 20 foot tails made from the Sunday funnies and those beauties soured to the clouds.\nHe was a 1958 vacation in Germany - a happy return home with his beautiful family and a slick, silver Olds '98. He made it the trip of a lifetime for his children - filled with memories, friends, family and adventures.\nHe was fond of sharing cherished stories about Willsbach and Mokrin.\nHe was Walloon Lake in the summer, with fireflies and fishing.\nHe was all seasons on the farm.\nHe was a man to loved to be with people and people loved to be with him.\nHe was an outrageous bidder in pinochle games and pretty good at pool.\nHe was a best buddy for Tony and loved Roswita from the moment he met her, who could do otherwise?\nHe was a meticulous gardener, whose tomatoes and cucumbers were unmatched. One summer he grew 12 ft. tall sunflowers for his granddaughter.\nHe was a carpenter and a pigeon keeper and a fishing buddy. Whether it was goulash, zuspiese, a pork roast, sarma or chicken soup, he was \"the crook\".\nHe was a special gourmet - he could enjoy a slice of farmer's speck or a fine cognac with equal gusto.\nHe was laughter and parties. Just ask the Clevelanders. He was generous to a fault and all who knew him, know this about him.\nHe was Mr. Franzel and always knew the name of his waitress.\nHe was dinners out with the family and baseball games, but his favorites were birthdays and holidays with his family.\nHe danced at his sons' weddings and could really polka. And when he really got going he would kick up his heel - not both, just one.\nHe was opinionated, raucous, strong willed, outspoken, joyous and tough, and you always knew where he stood and where you stood with him - but he was not opposed to changing his mind about something if he thought he had been wrong and he liked to learn.\nMore times than I could count, I saw tears in his eyes - of pride, of love, or grief. He was a deep feeling man.\nHe was a European and he was a proud American.\nHe was the kind of friend that they just don't make anymore.\nHe loved hic children and grandchildren with a deep, unabated passion andhis pride in what they had accomplished was a source of strength to them all.\nHe was Michael's father. He was Georg's father. He was Helena's father. He was Halley-Allana's grandfather. He was Michael Jon's grandfather. He was David's grandfather. He was Martha's father-in-law. He was Margaret's father-in-law. He was Magdalena's beloved husband.\nAll of us are just so much better and infinitely enriched for having had him in our lives. We are very, very, very fortunate to have known him, to have loved him and been loved by him. You will never leave us sweet Opa and will always remain in our hearts.\nThis is the video slide show that was shown at the memorial service.\n(Click on) Psalm 23:1-6\nMusic is by Jeff Majors, \"The Lord is My Shepherd\"\nhttp://www.jeffmajors.com/home.asp\nMichael Wunschl 1925-2008\nMy father in law Mischi was one of the hardest working people I have ever known. Most of his life he worked 12 hours a day, seven days a week. Needless to say most of the time he wasn't able to spend a lot of time with his family. To make up for it sometimes late at night he would come home and surprise the kids with a huge sack of hamburgers or other treats.\nHe was an extremely generous person. When Michael Jon was born (his first grandson) he gave Margaret his Cadillac Eldorado. Eleven years after they left Germany Michael took his whole family back home to the old country for a three month vacation. They crossed the ocean on the Queen Elizabeth and took their 1962 Oldmobile with them. They were treated like celebrities as they toured the countryside and small village roads in their huge automobile. When there was a gathering at a local pub, Michael paid for everyone's drinks, including people he didn't know. No one ever picked up the tab at a restaurant when Michael was around.\nHis pride and joy were his grandchildren, Michael Jon, David and Halley and his great-grandson Nathan. Nothing made him happier than having the family gather around him. He had been a cook during the war and still loved to cook. In fact, when he retired he took over the kitchen from Magdalena. He was used to cooking large quantities of food and subsequently always made enough food not only to feed the group, but enough to send food home with everyone who had come to visit. Opa was famous for his homemade sausage, a skill he passed along to Michael Jon, along with his sausage-making equipment. Whole days were set aside to make his legendary stuffed cabbage rolls (which is called \"sarma\"), which he and Magdalena put in the freezer for the months to come. He loved to garden. True to his tool and die background, his rows of tomatoes and beans were straight as an arrow. His love of gardening was inherited by his granddaughter Halley and they spent many happy hours together working outside. He and Halley also raised doves together.\nIn his later years, he and Magdalena were able to build a beautiful home on 55 acres in Attica, Michigan. What had been nothing but brush and grass was transformed into a parklike setting, complete with a road, two ponds, evergreens, fruit trees and willows. Michael loved to fish and stocked the pond with trout and large-mouth bass. He would never keep the fish, but would throw them back and some of them grew to a fearsome size. The kids always loved to go fishing with Opa. Even 3 year old Nathan, the youngest member of the family, was nurtured by Opa in the fine art of fishing from the dock at the farm.\nIn his youth, Mischi liked to draw and paint. This is one of my favorites:\nNo one could tell a story like Opa. And he had many stories, from the time he and his father-in-law smuggled a squealing live pig in cart through the village to feed his family, to the 10 lbs of chocolate he was saving in the cupboard to use as a bartering tool, only to find weeks later that his pregnant wife had eaten it all. We will miss those stories Opa, but we are thankful we have them in our memories and no one who had the privilege of knowing you will ever forget you.\nNathan, MJ and Tifany",

Last year, I broke a five and thirty year silence and revealed to the country the chief reason my ties to powerlifting are so strong. I owe it my life. On the 4th of July of 2005 I survived a suicide attempt \u2013 a serious and miraculously prevented one. As early as 1981 I was diagnosed as a serious case of bipolar disorder. I have also been diagnosed with epilepsy and post traumatic stress disorder, resulting from multiple sex abuse and rape episodes. For decades, I was heavily medicated with psychotropic drugs until I decided there was no dignity in this type of life. I dropped the meds and started strength training. For the first time since my athletic adolescence (I was a fencer), I improved. But eventually my training degenerated and the disease came back with a vengeance. In 2005, on the 4th of July, I had to face it again. I slashed my throat, the jugular was partly cut and so were some facial nerves. I have little sensibility on the left side of my face. I lost about 1 litre of blood. This happened on a dirt road near a beach, someone was passing by and took me to a small clinic in 5 minutes, where they stitched me as best as they could.\nIn 2006 I discovered powerlifting. Since then, I have been leading a life that can quite safely be called a good life. No, there is no cure. No, I am not symptom-free. But the danger has been dramatically controlled, with no seriously self harming behavior. A few years ago, Gabe Sorensen wrote, in his Power Unlimited script, that you take from powerlifting what you put into it. I have put my life in this sport and it gave me back one I didn\u2019t have anymore.\nThe doctors predicted I wouldn\u2019t live for more than a couple of months after the 2005 attempt. They gave me a 5 year deadline, though. On the 4th of July of 2012, surviving two years of my predicted death, I have traveled to Colombia to lift and win the WPC South American Championship.\nI decided to share this because it is time to do it. I have done this at the magazine bellow, in Brazil, last year, because my family and friends asked me to do it (for years, actually). I think I managed to help many mental and neurological disorder patients. I have also managed to raise angry reactions from the psychiatric mainstream establishment. I don\u2019t give a damn.\nI am alive. And I am lifting.\nEla tem a for\u00e7a (She\u2019s got the Strength)",

        "raw_content": "Tour The Rich History of World War II\nThe European battlefields of World War II will come alive for history buffs in a new, evocative tour run by luxury travel company, Jacada Travel.\nThe history-themed tour takes travellers through England and France, and straight into important sites that include the famous Churchill War Rooms, where Allied commanders stayed as they planned attacks, and actual sites of the D-Day landings.\nThe itinerary has been designed in a way that it tells a story. Experts from each region will lead the tours, ensuring that you come away with a vivid impression of life in this corner of Europe during World War II, having met some fascinating people and gained an understanding not only of major historical events but also the lived experience of everyday people.\nThe journey starts in London with a dedicated tour to the Blitz. Stops and experiences will include Duxford\u2019s Imperial War Museum; Chartwell (Winston Churchill\u2019s former home); and the important naval city of Portsmouth, the central command place for the D-Day landings. Here, you will perhaps sip a pint in a pub frequented by Eisenhower and Monty when they took a break from planning the D-Day landings, or perhaps chance upon an abandoned bunker in a field in Kent.\nFrom England, the tour will move on to France. You will spend three nights in the famous town of Normandy, where marks of bullets and artillery shells can still be found on some buildings. The days will be spent visiting some of the country\u2019s most historic old museums and sites like the picture-perfect Mont-Saint- Michel, Pointe du Hoc \u2013 the site of a famous attack \u2013 and several of the beaches where the D-Day landings took place.\nLastly, the tour will head to Paris, where, together with a private guide, you will embark on a journey through the key moments of the German occupation until the city\u2019s liberation in 1944.\nThroughout the experience, you will gain exclusive access to non-tourist attractions, such as the Southwick House in England. This is a site where the Allied strategy for the D-Day landings was planned. It is actually owned by the Service Police of the British Armed Forces, and access to the Map Room is difficult to obtain.\nAs with any Jacada Travel itinerary, guests can expect accommodation of the highest quality. In this tour, a sense of history reigns. On the list is a 900-year-old castle where knights once stood, as well as a historic manor that boasts an original painting from Winston Churchill in its lounge.\nJacada Travel, which specialises in very private, bespoke trips, is able to tailor the trip according to each guest\u2019s interests and can include more stops along the way to create a very personal journey unlike no other.\nPrice per person: From USD $8,700 including stays at Gravetye Manor, Amberley Castle and Villa Lara Normandy.\nFor more information or to make reservations, please visit: www.jacadatravel.com\nPhotos courtesy of A.

        "raw_content": "Comments Filed on Revised Wind Guidelines Urging FWS to Comply with FACA\nLast week, we submitted comments on behalf of Friends of Blackwater Canyon, the Center for Biological Diversity, the Animal Welfare Institute, and the Wildlife Advocacy Project, on the Revised Draft Voluntary Land-Based Wind Energy Guidelines prepared by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS). In May 2011 we had submitted detailed comments on the previous draft of the wind guidelines; however in developing the revised guidelines, FWS has largely ignored and entirely failed to respond to public comments. Our comments highlight the fact that FWS has apparently weakened the guidelines in light of pressure from the industry-dominated Wind Turbine Guidelines Federal Advisory Committee - for example, the revised guidelines now require FWS to review wind energy project proposals within a truncated 60 day period. Further, our comments emphasize that the manner in which FWS is working with the Committee is a flagrant violation of the public access mandate of the Federal Advisory Committee Act (\u201cFACA\u201d) because while it is evident that the Committee has been working with FWS in developing the guidelines, the public has not been provided with complete and accurate information regarding the same.

The formal launch had been expected for months since the 2012 reforms included a mandatory review of the law every five years. Lobby groups have been steadily gearing up for the review, with some hoping to undo some of the balancing provisions of the last reform process or demanding new restrictions. Indeed, restrictions on fair dealing, takedown rules, website blocking, and copyright term extension will undoubtedly figure prominently in the lobby playbook. Yet for millions of Canadians, the copyright review offers an opportunity to ensure that the law meets the needs of education, innovation, consumer rights, and creators with more flexibility in the form of fair use and restoring neutrality on Canada\u2019s restrictive digital lock rules.",

For example, conditions during winter can influence events during migration and breeding, and vice versa. Because individuals experience ecologically distinct habitats separated in space and time, morphology, physiology, and other characteristics are affected differently, and there may be trade-offs acting throughout the annual cycle.\nToday we know that breeding productivity of some migratory species, including songbirds and monarch butterflies, can be influenced in a large part by events that occurred during the previous season, thousands of miles away. And although most avian mortality likely occurs during migration, it is probably a consequence of prior events that occurred during the breeding or over-wintering period. Without a better understanding of how events interact throughout the annual cycle, we will not be able to understand how human activities or natural selection drive population trends and evolution.",

        "title": "Amedeo Modigliani Biography",
        "raw_content": "Amedeo Modigliani Biography\nAmedeo Modigliani was an Italian modern artist; a painter and sculptor known for his simplified and elongated forms.\nModigliani was born into a Jewish family in Livorno, Italy. A port city, Livorno had long served as a refuge for those persecuted for their religion, and was home to a large Jewish community. His maternal great-great-grandfather, Solomon Garsin, had immigrated to Livorno in the 18th century as a refugee.\nModigliani's mother (Eug\u00e9nie Garsin), who was born and grew up in Marseille, was descended from an intellectual, scholarly family of Sephardic Jews, generations of whom had resided along the Mediterranean coastline. Her ancestors were learned people, fluent in many languages, known authorities on sacred Jewish texts, and founders of a school of Talmudic studies. Family legend traced the Garsins' lineage to the 17th-century Dutch philosopher Baruch Spinoza. The family business was believed to be a credit agency with branches in Livorno, Marseille, Tunis, and London. Their financial fortunes ebbed and flowed.\nModigliani's father, Flaminio, hailed from a family of successful businessmen and entrepreneurs. While not as culturally sophisticated as the Garsins, they knew how to invest in and develop thriving business endeavors. When the Garsin and Modigliani families announced the engagement of their children, Flaminio was a wealthy young mining engineer. He managed the mine in Sardinia and also managed the almost 30,000 acres of timberland the family owned. A reversal in fortune occurred to this prosperous family in 1883. An economic downturn in the price of metal plunged the Modiglianis into bankruptcy. Ever resourceful, Modigliani's mother used her social contacts to establish a school and, along with her two sisters, made the school into a successful enterprise.\nModigliani was the fourth child, whose birth coincided with the disastrous financial collapse of his father's business interests. Amedeo's birth saved the family from ruin; according to an ancient law, creditors could not seize the bed of a pregnant woman or a mother with a newborn child. The bailiffs entered the family's home just as Eugenia went into labour; the family protected their most valuable assets by piling them on top of her.\nModigliani had a close relationship with his mother, who taught him at home until he was 10. Beset with health problems after an attack of pleurisy when he was about 11, a few years later he developed a case of typhoid fever. When he was 16 he was taken ill again and contracted the tuberculosis which would later claim his life. After Modigliani recovered from the second bout of pleurisy, his mother took him on a tour of southern Italy: Naples, Capri, Rome and Amalfi, then north to Florence and Venice.\nHis mother was, in many ways, instrumental in his ability to pursue art as a vocation. When he was 11 years of age, she had noted in her diary: \"The child's character is still so unformed that I cannot say what I think of it. He behaves like a spoiled child, but he does not lack intelligence. We shall have to wait and see what is inside this chrysalis. Perhaps an artist?\"\nArt student years\nModigliani is known to have drawn and painted from a very early age, and thought himself \"already a painter\", his mother wrote, even before beginning formal studies. Despite her misgivings that launching him on a course of studying art would impinge upon his other studies, his mother indulged the young Modigliani's passion for the subject.\nAt the age of fourteen, while sick with typhoid fever, he raved in his delirium that he wanted, above all else, to see the paintings in the Palazzo Pitti and the Uffizi in Florence. As Livorno's local museum housed only a sparse few paintings by the Italian Renaissance masters, the tales he had heard about the great works held in Florence intrigued him, and it was a source of considerable despair to him, in his sickened state, that he might never get the chance to view them in person. His mother promised that she would take him to Florence herself, the moment he was recovered. Not only did she fulfil this promise, but she also undertook to enroll him with the best painting master in Livorno, Guglielmo Micheli.\nEarly literary influences\nModigliani worked in Micheli's Art School from 1898 to 1900. In 1901, whilst in Rome, Modigliani admired the work of Domenico Morelli, a painter of dramatic religious and literary scenes. Morelli had served as an inspiration for a group of iconoclasts who were known by the title \"the Macchiaioli\", and Modigliani had already been exposed to the influences of the Macchiaioli. This localized landscape movement reacted against the bourgeois stylings of the academic genre painters. While sympathetically connected to (and actually pre-dating) the French Impressionists, the Macchiaioli did not make the same impact upon international art culture as did the contemporaries and followers of Monet, and are today largely forgotten outside Italy.\nModigliani's connection with the movement was through Guglielmo Micheli, his first art teacher. Micheli was not only a Macchiaiolo himself, but had been a pupil of the famous Giovanni Fattori, a founder of the movement. Micheli's work, however, was so fashionable and the genre so commonplace that the young Modigliani reacted against it, preferring to ignore the obsession with landscape that, as with Impressionism, characterized the movement. Micheli also tried to encourage his pupils to paint en plein air, but Modigliani never really got a taste for this style of working, sketching in caf\u00e9s, but preferring to paint indoors, and especially in his own studio. Even when compelled to paint landscapes (three are known to exist), Modigliani chose a proto-Cubist palette more akin to Paul Cezanne than to the Macchiaioli.\nHaving been exposed to erudite philosophical literature as a young boy under the tutelage of Isaco Garsin, his maternal grandfather, he continued to read and be influenced through his art studies by the writings of Nietzsche, Baudelaire, Carducci, Comte de Lautr\u00e9amont, and others, and developed the belief that the only route to true creativity was through defiance and disorder.\nLetters that he wrote from his 'sabbatical' in Capri in 1901 clearly indicate that he is being more and more influenced by the thinking of Nietzsche. In these letters, he advised friend Oscar Ghiglia; \"(hold sacred all) which can exalt and excite your intelligence... (and) ... seek to provoke ... and to perpetuate ... these fertile stimuli, because they can push the intelligence to its maximum creative power.\"\nThe work of Lautr\u00e9amont was equally influential at this time. This doomed poet's Les Chants de Maldoror became the seminal work for the Parisian Surrealists of Modigliani's generation, and the book became Modigliani's favourite to the extent that he learnt it by heart. The poetry of Lautr\u00e9amont is characterized by the juxtaposition of fantastical elements, and by sadistic imagery; the fact that Modigliani was so taken by this text in his early teens gives a good indication of his developing tastes. Baudelaire and D'Annunzio similarly appealed to the young artist, with their interest in corrupted beauty, and the expression of that insight through Symbolist imagery.\nModigliani wrote to Ghiglia extensively from Capri, where his mother had taken him to assist in his recovery from tuberculosis. These letters are a sounding board for the developing ideas brewing in Modigliani's mind. Ghiglia was seven years Modigliani's senior, and it is likely that it was he who showed the young man the limits of his horizons in Livorno. Like all precocious teenagers, Modigliani preferred the company of older companions, and Ghiglia's role in his adolescence was to be a sympathetic ear as he worked himself out, principally in the convoluted letters that he regularly sent, and which survive today.\n\"Dear friend\nA bourgeois told me today - insulted me - that I or at least my brain was lazy. It did me good. I should like such a warning every morning upon awakening: but they cannot understand us nor can they understand life...\"\nIn 1906, Modigliani moved to Paris, then the focal point of the avant-garde. In fact, his arrival at the centre of artistic experimentation coincided with the arrival of two other foreigners who were also to leave their marks upon the art world: Gino Severini and Juan Gris.\nHe later befriended Jacob Epstein, they aimed to set up a studio together with a shared vision to create a Temple of Beauty to be enjoyed by all, for which Modigliani created drawings and paintings of the intended stone caryatids for 'The Pillars of Tenderness 'which would support the imagined temple.\nModigliani settled in Le Bateau-Lavoir, a commune for penniless artists in Montmartre, renting himself a studio in Rue Caulaincourt. Even though this artists' quarter of Montmartre was characterized by generalized poverty, Modigliani himself presented - initially, at least - as one would expect the son of a family trying to maintain the appearances of its lost financial standing to present: his wardrobe was dapper without ostentation, and the studio he rented was appointed in a style appropriate to someone with a finely attuned taste in plush drapery and Renaissance reproductions. He soon made efforts to assume the guise of the bohemian artist, but, even in his brown corduroys, scarlet scarf and large black hat, he continued to appear as if he were slumming it, having fallen upon harder times.\nWhen he first arrived in Paris, he wrote home regularly to his mother, he sketched his nudes at the Acad\u00e9mie Colarossi, and he drank wine in moderation. He was at that time considered by those who knew him as a bit reserved, verging on the asocial. He is noted to have commented, upon meeting Picasso who, at the time, was wearing his trademark workmen's clothes, that even though the man was a genius, that did not excuse his uncouth appearance.\nIn Paris, he discovered the work of Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Edgar Degas, Paul Gauguin and, among the younger, more radical set, Henri Matisse and Picasso. Paul Cezanne in particular he pronounced \"admirrrable, one of his favorite adjectives. Within a year of arriving in Paris, however, his demeanour and reputation had changed dramatically. He transformed himself from a dapper academician artist into a sort of prince of vagabonds.\nThe poet and journalist Louis Latourette, upon visiting the artist's previously well-appointed studio after his transformation, discovered the place in upheaval, the Renaissance reproductions discarded from the walls, the plush drapes in disarray. Modigliani was already an alcoholic and a drug addict by this time, and his studio reflected this. Modigliani's behaviour at this time sheds some light upon his developing style as an artist, in that the studio had become almost a sacrificial effigy for all that he resented about the academic art that had marked his life and his training up to that point.\nNot only did he remove all the trappings of his bourgeois heritage from his studio, but he also set about destroying practically all of his own early work. He explained this extraordinary course of actions to his astonished neighbours thus: \"Childish baubles, done when I was a dirty bourgeois...\"\nThe motivation for this violent rejection of his earlier self is the subject of considerable speculation. From the time of his arrival in Paris, Modigliani consciously crafted a charade persona for himself and cultivated his reputation as a hopeless drunk and voracious drug user. His escalating intake of drugs and alcohol may have been a means by which Modigliani masked his tuberculosis from his acquaintances, few of whom knew of his condition. Tuberculosis - the leading cause of death in France by 1900 - was highly communicable, there was no cure, and those who had it were feared, ostracized, and pitied. Modigliani thrived on camaraderie and would not let himself be isolated as an invalid; he sought to suppress his coughing bouts and any other recognizable signs of the disease that was slowly consuming him. Modigliani used drink and drugs as palliatives to ease his physical pain, helping him to maintain a facade of vitality and allowing him to continue to create his art.\nModigliani's use of drink and drugs intensified from about 1914 onward. After years of remission and recurrence, this was the period during which the symptoms of his tuberculosis worsened, signaling that the disease had reached an advanced stage.\nHe sought the company of artists such as Utrillo and Soutine, seeking acceptance and validation for his work from his colleagues. Modigliani's behavior stood out even in these Bohemian surroundings: he carried on frequent affairs, drank heavily, and used absinthe and hashish. While drunk, he would sometimes strip himself naked at social gatherings. He became the epitome of the tragic artist, creating a posthumous legend almost as well known as that of Vincent van Gogh.\nDuring the 1920s, in the wake of Modigliani's career and spurred on by comments by Andr\u00e9 Salmon crediting hashish and absinthe with the genesis of Modigliani's style, many hopefuls tried to emulate his \"success\" by embarking on a path of substance abuse and bohemian excess. Salmon claimed - erroneously - that whereas Modigliani was a totally pedestrian artist when sober,\n\"...from the day that he abandoned himself to certain forms of debauchery, an unexpected light came upon him, transforming his art. From that day on, he became one who must be counted among the masters of living art.\"\nIn fact, art historians suggest that it is entirely possible that Modigliani would have achieved even greater artistic heights had he not been immured in, and destroyed by, his own self-indulgences.\nDuring his early years in Paris, Modigliani worked at a furious pace. He was constantly sketching, making as many as a hundred drawings a day. However, many of his works were lost - destroyed by him as inferior, left behind in his frequent changes of address, or given to girlfriends who did not keep them.\nHe was first influenced by Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, but around 1907 he became fascinated with the work of Paul C\u00e9zanne. Eventually he developed his own unique style, one that cannot be adequately categorized with those of other artists.\nHe met the first serious love of his life, Russian poet Anna Akhmatova, in 1910, when he was 26. They had studios in the same building, and although 21-year-old Anna was recently married, they began an affair. Anna was tall (as Modigliani was only 5 foot 5 inches) with dark hair (like Modigliani's), pale skin and grey-green eyes, she embodied Modigliani's aesthetic ideal and the pair became engrossed in each other. After a year, however, Anna returned to her husband.\nModigliani painted a series of portraits of contemporary artists and friends in Montparnasse: Chaim Soutine, Moise Kisling, Pablo Picasso, Diego Rivera, Marc Chagall, Juan Gris, Max Jacob, Piet Mondrian, and Jean Cocteau, all sat for stylized renditions.\nAt the outset of World War I, Modigliani tried to enlist in the army but was refused because of his poor health.\nIn 1916, Modigliani befriended the Polish poet and art dealer L\u00e9opold Zborowski and his wife Anna. Zborowski became Modigliani's primary art dealer and friend during the artist's final years, helping him financially, and also organizing his show in Paris in 1917.\nThe 1917 Paris Show\nThe several dozen nudes Modigliani painted between 1916 and 1919 constitute many of his best-known works. This series of nudes was commissioned by Modigliani's dealer and friend L\u00e9opold Zborowski, who lent the artist use of his apartment, supplied models and painting materials, and paid him between fifteen and twenty francs each day for his work.\nThe paintings from this arrangement were thus different from his previous depictions of friends and lovers in that they were funded by Zborowski either for his own collection, as a favor to his friend, or with an eye to their \"commercial potential\", rather than originating from the artist's personal circle of acquaintances.\nThe Paris show of 1917 was Modigliani's only solo exhibition during his life, and is \"notorious\" in modern art history for its sensational public reception and the attendant issues of obscenity. The show was closed by police on its opening day, but continued thereafter, most likely after the removal of paintings from the gallery's streetfront window.\nNude Sitting on a Divan is one of a series of nudes painted by Modigliani in 1917 that created a sensation when exhibited in Paris that year. According to the catalogue description from the 2010 sale of the painting at Sotheby's, seven nudes were exhibited in the 1917 show.\nOn a trip to Nice which had been conceived and organized by Zborowski, Modigliani, Foujita and other artists tried to sell their works to rich tourists. Modigliani managed to sell a few pictures, but only for a few francs each. Despite this, during this time he produced most of the paintings that later became his most popular and valued works.\nDuring his lifetime, he sold a number of his works, but never for any great amount of money. What funds he did receive soon vanished for his habits.\nIn the spring of 1917, the Russian sculptor Chana Orloff introduced him to a beautiful 19-year-old art student named Jeanne H\u00e9buterne[28] who had posed for Tsuguharu Foujita. From a conservative bourgeois background, H\u00e9buterne was renounced by her devout Roman Catholic family for her liaison with the painter, whom they saw as little more than a debauched derelict. Despite her family's objections, soon they were living together.\nOn December 3, 1917, Modigliani's first one-man exhibition opened at the Berthe Weill Gallery. The chief of the Paris police was scandalized by Modigliani's nudes and forced him to close the exhibition within a few hours after its opening.\nAfter he and H\u00e9buterne moved to Nice, she became pregnant, and on November 29, 1918, gave birth to a daughter whom they named Jeanne (1918-1984). In May 1919 he returned to Paris, where, with H\u00e9buterne and their daughter, he rented an apartment in the rue de la Grande Chaumi\u00e8re.\nWhen Modigliani died on January 24, 1920, H\u00e9buterne was pregnant with their second child.\nAlthough he continued to paint, Modigliani's health was deteriorating rapidly, and his alcohol-induced blackouts became more frequent.\nIn 1920, after not hearing from him for several days, his downstairs neighbour checked on the family and found Modigliani in bed delirious and holding onto H\u00e9buterne, who was nearly nine months pregnant. They summoned a doctor, but little could be done because Modigliani was in the final stage of his disease, dying of tubercular meningitis.\nModigliani died on January 24, 1920. There was an enormous funeral, attended by many from the artistic communities in Montmartre and Montparnasse.\nH\u00e9buterne was taken to her parents' home, where, inconsolable, she threw herself out of a fifth-floor window, a day after Modigliani's death, killing herself and her unborn child. Modigliani was interred in P\u00e8re Lachaise Cemetery. H\u00e9buterne was buried at the Cimeti\u00e8re de Bagneux near Paris, and it was not until 1930 that her embittered family allowed her body to be moved to rest beside Modigliani. A single tombstone honors them both. His epitaph reads: \"Struck down by Death at the moment of glory.\" Hers reads: \"Devoted companion to the extreme sacrifice.\"\nModigliani, managing only one solo exhibition in his life and giving his work away in exchange for meals in restaurants, died penniless and destitute.\nThe linear form of African sculpture and the depictive humanism of the figurative Renaissance painters informed his work. Working during that fertile period of \"isms,\" Cubism, Dadaism, Surrealism, Futurism, Modigliani did not choose to be categorized within any of these prevailing, defining confines. He was unclassifiable, stubbornly insisting on his difference. He was an artist putting down paint on canvas creating works not to shock and outrage, but to say, \"This is what I see.\" More appreciated over the years by collectors than academicians and critics, Modigliani was indifferent to staking a claim for himself in the intellectual avant-garde of the art world. One can say he recognized the merit of Jean Cocteau's proclamation: \"Ne t'attardes pas avec l'avante garde\" (\"Don't pay attention to the avant-garde\").\nSince his death, Modigliani's reputation has soared. Nine novels, a play, a documentary, and three feature films have been devoted to his life. Modigliani's sister in Florence adopted their daughter, Jeanne (1918-1984). As an adult, she wrote a biography of her father titled Modigliani: Man and Myth.",

        "title": "Moore On Running: Long Run - 22 Miles - 9-19-09",
        "raw_content": "I had two goals for my long run this weekend: finish the twenty two miles and not cramp up during or after the run.\nEvery time I have run over eighteen miles I have cramped up in my calves (sometimes it was just slightly, but it still hurts). This week I spent a lot of time preparing for the run. Other than the runs I did during the week, I treated it as if I was about to a marathon. I stayed hydrated all week, especially Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. I ate three bananas a day all week. I also started drinking coconut water (water not milk).\nI can not say enough about coconut water. I had to get the flavored kind, but it really has worked well for me. It has a ton of potassium and very few calories. I drank it all week and then loaded up on it on Friday and then Saturday morning.\nWe started with four runners (Andrew, Cathy, Elizabeth and myself). Our coach (Greg) had us run around the Old Village for about four slow miles before we headed towards the Cooper River Bridge (11:47, 11:35, 11:12, 10:41). We got out on Coleman Blvd and ran down to the bridge where we stopped at the water fountain and refilled our water (10:31, 10:26, 11:36). After our quick stop, we ran under the bridge past the new park and then ran by ION and to Bowman where we stopped for water again (10:47, 10:39, 10:55, 10:31). We ran up to Hwy 17 and around the back side of the Towne Center and over the Isle of Palms Connector Bridge(10:29, 10:56, 10:27, 10:20, 10:39). Once again, our pace over the bridge was faster than while we were on a flat area (not sure what is up with that). We stopped again to refill our water (I filled up my bottle with water and a little Power Aid) I also drank some coconut water. This was a quick stop and we headed off towards Sullivan's Island. We crossed Breach Inlet and then went over the Ben Sawyer Bridge and ended the run back in the Old Village (10:20, 10:24, 10:31, 10:26, 10:28, 10:30).\nI could have run another mile to St. Andrews, but I was really happy about not cramping and how good I felt. I am a little superstitious and did not want anything bad to happen on this run (its my last really long run before the marathon) so I jumped in the back of Coach Greg's truck and headed back to my car.\nI really felt good about the run. I could have been really hardcore and gone on with Andrew and Cathy for the extra mile at the end, but I am really happy with reaching the two goals I had set. The pace was right on the mark and my hydration plan worked I can't ask for more than that...\nRunnerDude September 22, 2009 at 8:10 PM\nThat is awesome man! Great run! I can't say enough about coconut water either. My late-in-the-run calf cramps have disappeared too!! Keep uip the amazing job!\nThis stuff is the best! It is better than any sports drink I have ever used. Thanks for pointing it out to me.",

        "raw_content": "He will be vilified by the Right and if they could they would pillory him and burn him at the stake for his criticism and defection\n\"Truth is incontrovertible, malice may attack it, ignorance may deride it, but in the end; there it is.\"\n-Sir Winston Churchill, British Politician and Prime Minister\nLittle Green Footballs Republican Conservative blogger Charles Johnson has suddenly become a rational Republican and has turned on the Radical Right Wing and calls it like it is. He will be vilified by the Right and if they could they would pillory him and burn him at the stake for his criticism and defection. What I hope is that other Republicans like Charles Johnson will have the courage to follow suit. The fact is that the Radical Evangelical Right has captured the Republican Party, supported by such luminaries as Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck and Bill (the clown) O'Reilly. The Evangelical movement has supported candidates for the senate and the house that have embraced their agenda and vote the Evangelical position.\nCharles Johnson states his reason for breaking with the Conservative movement; they adhere to the following;\n\"1. Support for fascists, both in America (see: Pat Buchanan, Robert Stacy McCain, etc.) and in Europe (see: Vlaams Belang, BNP, SIOE, Pat Buchanan, etc.)\n2. Support for bigotry, hatred, and white supremacism (see: Pat Buchanan, Ann Coulter, Robert Stacy McCain, Lew Rockwell, etc.)\n3. Support for throwing women back into the Dark Ages, and general religious fanaticism (see: Operation Rescue, anti-abortion groups, James Dobson, Pat Robertson, Tony Perkins, the entire religious right, etc.)\n4. Support for anti-science bad craziness (see: creationism, climate change denialism, Sarah Palin, Michele Bachmann, James Inhofe, etc.)\n5. Support for homophobic bigotry (see: Sarah Palin, Dobson, the entire religious right, etc.)\n6. Support for anti-government lunacy (see: tea parties, militias, Fox News, Glenn Beck, etc.)\n7. Support for conspiracy theories and hate speech (see: Alex Jones, Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, Birthers, creationists, climate deniers, etc.)\n8. A right-wing blogosphere that is almost universally dominated by raging hate speech (see: Hot Air, Free Republic, Ace of Spades, etc.)\n9. Anti-Islamic bigotry that goes far beyond simply criticizing radical Islam, into support for fascism, violence, and genocide (see: Pamela Geller, Robert Spencer, etc.)\n10.Hatred for President Obama that goes far beyond simply criticizing his policies, into racism, hate speech, and bizarre conspiracy theories (see: witch doctor pictures, tea parties, Birthers, Michelle Malkin, Fox News, World Net Daily, Newsmax, and every other right wing source)\"\nI have been talking about these same ideas for the last two years and it is good to see more Republicans pick up on the hypocrisy of the Right and it's racist, homophobic Hate Agenda. Johnson had better be prepared to be attacked for heresy and betraying the faith. There is no discussion or questioning allowed on the Right, no intellectual inquiry will be tolerated. It is a philosophy of intolerance and hate. They hate gays, hate Obama, hate people of color, hate illegal immigrants, hate Hispanics, hate liberals, hate agnostics, hate atheists, hate Muslims, hate people who support abortions, hate health care for all Americans, hate Freemasons, hate inclusion, hate women's rights, hate toleration, hate Democrats, man that is a lot of hate. They do love stuff also such as Sarah Palin, Michelle Bachmann and Glenn Beck, not exactly and intellectual brain trust. Now they will hate Charles Johnson for his betrayal of their hate filled agenda. I too was a Conservative but they lost me with their hate and intolerance and their hypocrisy and distortion of reality and their oppression of all those less fortunate.\nUK Iraq War Inquiry: Blair Was Told Iraq War Was Illegal, Decided On War In 2002\nConservatives Can Really Be Heartless Bastards\nI lived through the segregation and civil rights periods in America and was always made to feel that I was not a citizen of this country, although I would describe myself as one of the most patriotic people in America. I am still made to feel the same way today. My degrees mean nothing, that I taught school for 33 years means nothing, that I've paid my taxes, own a home, and raised my child to be an educated, (college graduate) law-abiding, contributing member of society means nothing. It's the color of my skin that immediately places me in the \"not good enough\" category with these folks. I would die for our country. What the far right politicians and their supporters are doing to President Obama, I've seen and experienced and am experiencing. I know their goal is to send the message that he is incompetent, in spite of evidence to the contrary. Their main problem is that he is an African American in the White House, a position that they think should be reserved for white men. If they successfully undermine his presidency, that will give them fuel to continue their campaign of hate toward the groups you mention in your post. A successful Obama presidency opens the door to the idea that other minorities, LGBTQ persons, women, and others can be successful politicians. This is as it should be.\nWhat none of these people seem to realize is that their hatred will tear this country apart if we don't stop them. They have the same attitudes and beliefs about people they do not like that have been seen throughout history in totalitarian governments. Although patriotism, freedom, respect for our troops, the Bill of Rights, and the Constitution are used constantly in their dialogue, in reality, they have no respect for any of them. Their agenda is power for power's sake, and the total domination and subjugation of individual rights.\nmorb320 December 2, 2009 at 12:48 PM\nPlease keep up the good work.

        "title": "Remembering harold Craxton [CH]: Classical Reviews- August 2001 MusicWeb(UK)",
        "raw_content": "REMEMBERING HAROLD CRAXTON\nMention the name of Harold Craxton to an English musician and it will probably \"ring a bell\". His name has entered subliminally into most British households where even a little music is played as the \"other\" editor of what everybody thinks of as the \"Tovey edition\" of the Beethoven Sonatas, published by the Associated Board in 1931 and still going strong.\nMusicians with long memories know more. Craxton was for many years a revered teacher at the Royal Academy of Music, pursued an active career as both solo pianist and accompanist (Nellie Melba, Clara Butt, John McCormack and Lionel Tertis are just some of the distinguished musicians he worked with) and published a certain amount of music. \"A Shepherdess in Porcelain\" was often set as an exam piece and will be fondly remembered by older pianists (the melody seems to \"stick\" better than most such pieces) and a song, \"Come you, Mary\", as recorded by Lauritz Melchior, brought him in the odd cheque from the United States.\nAs a pianist with a particular interest in British piano music I already knew several of his works when I came into contact with Craxton's youngest son Michael and his daughter Jane, who now runs her grandfather's old home as a rehearsal studio. I also found that I was, as it were, a great-pupil of Craxton's, since one of my most valued teachers, Alexander Kelly, had been a pupil and prot\u00e9g\u00e9 of Craxton.\nAs a composer, Craxton in later years seems to have done little to convince even his own family that he took himself very seriously and one of Michael's principal doubts, when it was proposed that a CD of his music might be a worthy tribute to him on the thirtieth anniversary of his death, was whether there was enough to fill a disc. As we examined the scores still held by the Craxton Studios it became evident that there was. Further manuscript material came to light after the programme had been chosen and even while it was being recorded (his papers had remained in a state of some confusion). I am glad to say that the programme as it stands remains a good introduction to his work, but some interesting pieces have now emerged and it is to be hoped that resources can be found for a second disc. An expert recording team came down to tape the programme in the Craxton Studios, where the composer's old Bluthner is still in fine working order. In addition to the piano pieces we were joined by two excellent young singers, the soprano Caroline Goodwin and the baritone James McOran Campbell, and Alison Moncrieff Kelly, Alexander Kelly's younger daughter who is now a cellist and was delighted to pay tribute to her father's mentor.\nSo who was Harold Craxton and what value has his music for us today? Born on 30 April 1885 Thomas Harold Hunt Craxton was the son of a publican, and essentially a self-made man. His early musical instruction was typically provincial but he made a first public appearance at the age of five and took the Trinity College Grade One piano examination when he was seven. Some surviving manuscripts, while undated, are in such a childish hand as to suggest he was composing by his early teens at least. He next went to the Tobias Matthay Pianoforte School where he studied with Cuthbert Whitemore and Matthay himself. Following this he rapidly established himself as an accompanist and for an intense period toured the world in the train of the likes of Madame Albani and Dame Nellie Melba. During some concerts for troops he met a violinist called Essie Faulkner and married her in about 1915. It was a highly successful marriage, ending only with Craxton's death in 1971 (Essie died in 1977). As well as providing him with six children Essie seems to have had a naturally hospitable disposition and the Craxtons always found space under their roof for many of the current students and prot\u00e9g\u00e9s. Ronald Kinloch Anderson, Alexander Kelly, Alan Richardson and Denis Matthews were notable beneficiaries and I am assured that there were rarely fewer than twenty people at the dinner table. Fortunately their houses, both pre- and post-war, were large. Craxton died on 30 March 1885.\nCraxton's work as a pianist did not stop with his new family commitments; he continued to collaborate with some of the greatest soloists of the day and to give piano recitals which were notable for the inclusion of much early music in his own transcriptions. This activity petered out with old age but he never entirely retired from the platform. However, after his marriage his concert-giving was more home-based and teaching became central to his life. He taught briefly at the Tobias Matthay Pianoforte School from 1914 and in 1919 took up a professorship at the Royal Academy of Music which was to last till 1961; to the end of his life he continued to receive pupils at his studio.\nAs a composer his first publication was Three Pieces for Pianoforte, op.1 (Bosworth 1911) and his last a group of easy pieces brought out by Curwen in 1961. His activity falls into a number of quite clear phases. Up till about 1917 he wrote fairly copiously in a romantic vein close to that of fellow-Matthay pupils such as Bowen and Swinstead. While not usually virtuosic this music is clearly intended for concert use. Not much of it was published. The Woodland Lullaby (J. Williams 1917) is one of the best and is most effectively laid out for the piano, while the simplicity of A Shepherdess in Porcelain, from the same year, points the way to his next phase.\nDuring this period he was also fairly prolific as a song-writer, publishing 12 songs between 1914 and 1919 (several others remain in manuscript). Dame Nellie Melba does not seem to have deigned to sing any of them, but Dame Clara Butt, her husband Kennerley Rumford, Carrie Tubb and John McCormack all did (the latter recorded Mavis). Most are in the vein of the popular ballads of their day, outrageously so in the case of Oh! To see the Cabin Smoke (Dame Clara must have loved it), though their melodies are always fresh and well-constructed. Others, notably Hearts in Love with its delicate alternation of major and minor, Shepherd Love and the dignified R. L. Stevenson setting A Requiem belong to the same world as contemporary works by Quilter. After a short hiatus two further songs (the last to be published) appeared, The Snowdrop (Cramer 1924) and Beloved, I am lonely (Boosey 1926), respectively Quilter- and ballad-like. The Shakespeare songs will be dealt with shortly; meanwhile Craxton's work was moving in a different direction.\nIn 1920 he edited and arranged five pieces by Purcell, thus signalling his interest in early music. During the '20s and '30s a whole series of volumes were brought out, making many of the pieces available for the first time. Most of it was British but the Craxton-Moffatt Collection of Old Keyboard Music ranged widely. Even today, alternative editions of the Praeludium in D minor by Carbonelli or Signora Auretti's Dance by Hasse would not be easy to find. By modern standards they are unacceptable but their sins are not too heinous (a bit of thickening and a shortage of ornaments) and they did sterling work in their day. Though mostly for piano solo, a few also had a solo instrument, and Craxton had the parts for the cello and viola pieces edited respectively by Sheridan Russell and Watson Forbes. He does not seem to have trusted himself to write for an instrument other than his own, though a small amount of unpublished violin music exists.\nThis interest in early music clearly taught Craxton the virtue of simplicity, and the bulk of his music from then on consisted of teaching material. The principal exceptions were the 8 Preludes (J. Williams 1955) and a number of very free transcriptions made in the early '30s: The Plaint of Love (a piece with a very special meaning for him), Siciliano and Rigadon, Meditation, and Bourr\u00e9e Humoresque. In their quiet way these have both originality and integrity. No one else has quite written \"old meets new\" music in the same way (the nearest parallel might be Vaughan Williams's Hymn-Tune Prelude on Gibbons's 'Song 13' which, significantly, was published in 1930). To these might be added at least two of the cello pieces; Farnaby's Maske is brought into the world of Elgarian romanticism and the Arne Sonata assumes a character independent of its original.\nCraxton's love of the Elizabethan world surely prompted his return to song-writing in 1944. Previously he had been content to set texts by conventional ballad-mongers (the Bible and R. L. Stevenson excepted). The four Shakespeare songs evidently cost him a lot of trouble since each exists in several variant versions, with dedications to a number of celebrated singers, including Isobel Baillie and Roy Henderson. In 1944 they must have seemed old-fashioned (there are no harmonic procedures to which Stanford would have objected fifty years earlier) but in 2001 this need not worry us and they have an unassuming rightness which should make them among the more durable settings of these words.\nCraxton's dedicatees are worth a mention, for a study of the names at the head of his scores, published and unpublished, provides a picture-gallery of the many people who populated his life. A good number of the names are female, and some of his lady-pupils were very attractive indeed. The success of his marriage depended at times on Essie's worldly wisdom and tolerance. She was no doubt flattered to be the dedicatee of the evocatively poetic Two Pastoral Preludes and it is to be hoped she was not given to rummaging through her husband's manuscripts, for she would have found that the first was originally inscribed to another woman, the actress Jean Forbes-Robertson. The first of the Two Mazurkas, dedicated to an unidentified \"C\", achieves a poignantly personal effect by the way in which it is wrapped punningly around the note C.\nThe picture we have, then, is of a composer with considerable early ambitions who never fully developed yet who never entirely lost his inspiration either. A study of the manuscripts both amplifies and explains this. From the beginning it is clear that composition was not always going to come easily to him. One score of a piece entitled Little Robin Goodfellow - Scherzetto, probably the definitive one, is dated 22.06.1915, rev. 01.1917. Even this \"definitive\" version is full of pencilled changes, mostly too faint and confused for a present-day editor to take them into account. There are a further nine versions or fragments. The piece was written out sometimes in three-four, sometimes in three-eight (and sometimes just called Valse), many variants have different secondary material altogether, details of figuration but also the basic harmonic structure are changed again and again. His one attempt at an extended piece apparently belongs to the same period and covers pages of sketches. It seems that something on the lines of a ballade or even a one-movement sonata was intended, but it is too fragmentary to tell. Evidently Craxton realised he was not up to writing a piece of any size, or which needed real development.\nThis wrestling with composition went on right through his life. A brief piece called A Quiet Tune, probably dating from the 1930s and intended as an elementary teaching piece, exists in five versions. They all begin the same; different continuations are tried, as are different endings. Yet one is never led to feel \"this time he's got it\", and in view of the blandness of the beginning one wonders why he went on trying. From about the same period, no fewer than eight attempts exist for a piece entitled \"Hear the mermaids softly singing\", many of them crossed out and bearing such startling differences that it sometimes seems a different piece.\nSo now we find the image of a composer who, though publishing little, was obsessed with composition, struggling again and again with often flimsy material. But what we don't have, in most cases, is the preliminary material for those pieces which came out successfully and were published. Did they cost him the same effort or did they come right more easily? For much of the published music, no autographs survive (the fair copies presumably remained with the publishers, to be pulped unceremoniously in due course). But in a few cases some evidence remains. Tahitian Dance (founded upon Native Rhythms) was published in 1931 and at the foot of the score it is dated Tahiti 1914. On the strength of the autographs some mystification has gone on here. We have an undated version, with a totally different middle section to the published score, entitled Kaffir Dance. A rather more worked out version, with this same middle section, is called \"African Dance (founded on a native rhythm and tune)\" and dated August 1917. Then, on the smaller MS paper Craxton was using by the 1930s, we have a pencilled sketch of what was to become the final middle section and lastly an untitled, undated MS not far different from the published copy. If any expert on ethnic music hears this disc and can tell me whether the rhythms are African or Tahitian I should be glad to hear from him!\nAnother case is the song \"Beloved, I am lonely\". Only a popular ballad, perhaps, but anyone who wants a lesson in how to make such a melody grow naturally should compare it with the several MS versions where the same basic tune takes different and unconvincing turns and a satisfactory conclusion is never found. But here we lack the final step to the version as published.\nThe study of these MSS has been both fascinating and a little saddening. Who, on looking at the slender catalogue of short and mostly simple pieces, would imagine that so much effort, and probably frustration, went into it?\nSo is there any point in remembering this music? I think all of us involved in the project felt that there is. The Woodland Lullaby is worth consideration by anyone looking for a romantic British genre piece to slip into a programme. The 2 Mazurkas have, respectively, poignancy and charm. The Plaint of Love and the other free transcriptions are, as has been said, unique in their way while those parts of the Tahitian Dance which date from 1917 show that Craxton did not always turn his back on modernity. Hearts in Love is a very touching little song and the Shakespeare settings merit publication. Craxton's attraction to birdsong, however far from Messiaen, is an endearing feature. There is a charming Blackbird and Thrush Minuet in manuscript and the Two Pastoral Preludes have a lot of atmosphere. Frank Bridge, in Heart's Ease and The Hedgerow, had travelled more radically down a similar path a few years earlier, but Craxton's pieces recognisably inhabit the same world. It is companionable music; he was a companionable man, noted for an impish humour preserved in his four skits on Three Blind Mice (discovered too late for the recording) in the styles of Mendelssohn, Mozart, Haydn, Beethoven.\n\u00a9 Christopher Howell\nSee also CD review by Rob Barnett\nA more detailed catalogue of all known musical works can be seen at the Craxton Studios.

        "raw_content": "Edited Version of March 21, 2001 Transcript\n\"The Forgotten F5: The 1998 Lawrence County Supercell \"\nMeteorologist, National Weather Service\nThe original unedited transcript of the March 21, 2001 online Virtual Library presentation is available in the EIIP Virtual Library Archives (http://www.emforum.org/vlibrary/livechat.htm). The following version of the transcript has been edited for easier reading and comprehension. Typos were corrected, date/time/names attributed by the software to each input were deleted but the content of questions and responses are as stated by each participant. Answers to participants\u0092 questions are grouped beneath the appropriate question to facilitate meaning.\n[Opening / Introduction]\nOur topic today is \"The Forgotten F5: The Lawrence County Supercell during the Middle Tennessee Tornado Outbreak of April 16, 1998.\" The paper is the result of the research of four gentlemen from the Warning & Forecast Office in Nashville, Tennessee: John D. Gordon, Bobby Boyd, Mark A. Rose, and Jason B. Wright.\nWe appreciate Mark Rose for being here today to present the results of this collaborative effort. Mark is a meteorologist at the National Weather Service Office in Old Hickory, Tennessee. Mark has authored or co-authored many technical papers, including publications in Weather and Forecasting, National Weather Digest, and the National Weather Association's Electronic Journal of Operational Meteorology.\nPlease help me welcome Mark Rose -- thank you for joining us today, Mark. I turn the floor over to you now.\nMark Rose: Hi. Thanks for having me.\nOn April 16, 1998, a tornado outbreak struck middle Tennessee. More than 20 supercells were identified by radar, and 12 tornadoes were confirmed -- the fifth largest tornado outbreak in middle Tennessee's history. The Warning & Forecast Office (WFO) in Old Hickory (OHX) issued a record 200 severe weather warnings on April 16, including 106 tornado warnings, in less than 18 hours. The Nashville metropolitan area was struck by three tornadoes --- one rated F3, and two rated F2. The F3 hit the downtown area.\nHowever, the most violent and dangerous tornado of the entire event, the Lawrence County F5, was nearly forgotten.\nThere may be two reasons why the Lawrence County tornado did not receive the attention of the Nashville tornadoes: 1) it struck four remote counties in southwest middle Tennessee, and 2) a major metropolitan area (Nashville) was hit by three tornadoes.\nThe resulting intensive media coverage of the Nashville tornadoes simply overshadowed the impact of F5 winds in rural Lawrence County.\nOfficial National Weather Service (NWS) records, obtained from the Storm Prediction Center (SPC), in 1999 listed three F5 tornadoes in Tennessee since records began in 1950. Extensive research by the authors has shown that these three ratings are likely erroneous. The lead author worked extensively with the SPC to consider downgrading these three F5s, which occurred in 1952 and 1974, to F4 ratings.\nBesides discussion of the Lawrence County F5 tornado, this forum will include proposals to downgrade the three former F5 tornadoes, and why the authors feel the Lawrence County F5 tornado of 1998 is the only legitimate F5 in Tennessee history.\nOn April 16, 1998, Nashville became the first major U.S. city (:100,000) in nearly 20 years to be struck by an F2 (or larger) tornado in the downtown area. Shreveport, LA took two direct hits in 1978: April 17 (F2) and December 3 (F4). On the morning of April 16, local media began continuous live coverage of the tornado outbreak. This coverage rapidly intensified to a national level when Nashville was struck by an F3 tornado in the downtown area at 3:30 p.m. All three national news networks either led off with coverage of the Nashville tornadoes or reported it during the first five minutes of the newscast. The local, state, and national news justifiably focused on the Nashville tornadoes, thus greatly overshadowing the Lawrence County F5.\nAround daybreak on April 16, showers and thunderstorms from west Tennessee and northern Mississippi moved into southwest middle Tennessee. This convection left an \"outflow boundary\" across Wayne and Lawrence Counties of southwest middle Tennessee. We hypothesize this boundary played a significant role in the formation of the Lawrence County tornado. The severe thunderstorm that spawned this tornado formed over McNairy County (3 counties west of Lawrence). The storm rapidly developed.\nThe initial tornado warning for Wayne County (1 county west of Lawrence) was issued at 3:43 p.m. Seven minutes later, an F4 tornado began 11 miles south of Clifton in Wayne County. The tornado was one mile wide at times, tracked 23 miles in Wayne County, killing 3 people, and injuring another 6.\nPlease note that 3 tornadoes are being tracked simultaneously, with the Lawrence County storm in full force. The initial tornado warning for Lawrence County was issued at 3:56 p.m., with the storm crossing into Lawrence County at 4:15 p.m. Based on aerial and ground storm surveys, the tornado intensified and produced damage, including some F5 damage, for 50 additional minutes. This one-mile wide violent tornado struck largely rural areas of Lawrence County for 23 miles. Fortunately, no one else was killed, although an additional 21 persons were injured. I have two damage photographs for you to load.\nIt completely leveled many well constructed homes, wiping the foundations clean, debarked several trees, and hurled a one-ton pickup truck more than 100 meters, all of which are described as F5 damage. Overall, the storm tracked 62.5 miles across Wayne, Lawrence, and Maury Counties before lifting. In addition to the 3 fatalities, 35 injuries occurred across the 3 counties.\nAccording to the SPC database there have been three F5 tornadoes in Tennessee.\nThe first occurred on March 21, 1952 in Marshall County, Mississippi, and Fayette County, in west Tennessee, which is one county east of Shelby County (Memphis).\nThe second and third F5s occurred in Lincoln and Franklin Counties in middle Tennessee during the Super Outbreak of April 3, 1974.\nOne of the co-authors, the legendary Bobby Boyd, who worked the Super Outbreak as a radar operator, questioned the 1974 ratings. Mr. Boyd's thorough memory of the 1974 Super Outbreak led to a chain of events that shifted the scope of the paper. The paper's original focus widened from a case study to include a detailed examination of former F5 tornadoes in Tennessee.\n\"And now for a short history lesson \u0085\"\nIn 1973, Fujita and Pearson created the F-scale for rating tornadoes. A few years later, Dr. Schaeffer at the National Severe Storms Forecast Center (now the SPC) hired over 50 college students to rate tornadoes that occurred prior to the NWS F-scale implementation. One student was hired per state, except Texas, which required several students.\nThe 1952 storm was rated by a student who used such data as photographs, newspaper articles, and information from emergency management. The storm originated near Byhalia, Mississippi and ended near Moscow, Tennessee. The college student rated the storm F4 in Mississippi and F3 in Tennessee. However, the SPC database showed this storm as F5.\nMr. Boyd conducted an independent survey of the 1952 storm, much like Grazulis. Mr. Boyd traveled to Fayette County, visited several newspaper offices, and the Tennessee State Library and Archives in Nashville. The only evidence that might suggest the possibility of an F5 was a reference in the Memphis Sommerville Gazette of a \"concrete block building being destroyed.\" Based on newspaper accounts not indicating \"incredible damage\" in Fayette County, the authors believe the concrete building referenced was probably not a steel-reinforced structure. The authors concur with the student analyst and Grazulis.\nMr. Boyd was the primary radar operator at the Weather Service Meteorological Observatory at OHX during the super outbreak of 1974 and vividly remembers the event.\nFrom discussions with several NWS employees, including the former state climatologist, the authors were unable to locate anyone who recalled whether the NWS had performed a storm disaster survey in middle Tennessee. However, Professor Fujita and some of his graduate students performed both ground and aerial surveys.\nFurthermore, the authors researched several newspaper articles and pictures and spoke with the Lincoln County, TN Emergency Management Agency. All articles the authors researched indicated F3 and F4 damage in Tennessee and Alabama with both tornadoes. In fact, there was \"devastating damage,\" including well-constructed homes leveled, steel structures badly damaged, and many deaths.\nHowever, the authors were unable to locate reference to the \"incredible damage\" that results from an F5. The authors sent a detailed letter to the SPC recommending the two tornadoes from 1974, and the 1952 tornado mentioned above, be downgraded to F4. The SPC agreed to all three of these changes. The SPC database now reflects the conclusions of Professor Fujita's map of 1974, and Grazulis' 1952 tornado write-up.\nIn conclusion, the April 16, 1998 tornado outbreak was a wake-up call to most of the nation. Tornadoes can hit large metropolitan areas. In fact, Nashville, the nation's 16th largest city, was struck by 3 tornadoes. The authors suggested that the three former F5 tornadoes in Tennessee should be reclassified as F4. These changes have been adopted, making the April 16, 1998 Lawrence County tornado the only documented F5 in the history of Tennessee. This concludes my presentation.\nAvagene Moore: Thank you, Mark, for a fine presentation. As a citizen of Lawrence County, TN, I remember the F5 all too well although I was several miles south of the tornado's path. We now invite your questions and comments.\nAmy Sebring: Besides correcting the technical record Mark, do the authors hope to bring more attention to this F5 in general? Since it did not get that much attention in the media at the time?\nMark Rose: Amy, that is the whole purpose of this paper. This makes the seventh time our study has been presented. The paper is also being published in the National Weather Digest, which is circulated all over the country. Keep in mind that there were no studies done on the Nashville tornado.\nAvagene Moore: I might add that the paper was presented in our community just a few weeks ago.\nRoger Fritzel: Is / was Grazulis the student assigned to research Tennessee.?\nMark Rose: Roger, actually Tom Grazulis is a college professor. He spent more than a quarter century of his life researching tornadoes. He published a comprehensive book a few years ago with the results of his study. He also encouraged us to pursue certain avenues to have the SPC database corrected.\nRegina Blissett: That tornado was absolutely unbelievable. How wide was it? What is the history of other F5's in our nation?\nMark Rose: Regina, it was a mile wide at its worst. The history of F5's in the U.S. is that they are very rare and very deadly. The full version of our paper mentions some former F5's that have occurred in recent years.\nJudy Jaeger: Do Tennessee tornadoes typically stay on the ground as long as this one? (Our Georgia storms occur and disappear in less than ten minutes.)\nMark Rose: Judy, tornadoes in Tennessee typically do not stay on the ground that long. I don't know how many have tracked for 62.5 miles but they are certainly very rare. As you say, they usually come and go in 10 to 20 minutes.\nAmy Sebring: It appears that there was a substantial lead in the warning time from Wayne County. Is this attributed to the Doppler technology? Did the warnings make a difference do you think; that is, are they taken seriously?\nMark Rose: Amy, thank you for asking that. The Doppler technology DOES give us the ability to give large lead times on warnings, especially large supercells like the Lawrence County storm. People react to warnings differently. Because Lawrence County has such a history of severe weather, they tend to take warnings more seriously, whereas others do not. It also depends on how the warning is worded. A warning that says \"Doppler radar indicated a tornado\", will be taken less seriously than one that says \"A large tornado has been sighted near Lawrenceburg\".\nAvagene Moore: Re: the F5 tornado -- as a lifelong resident of this county, it is still very startling to me to see where the tornado passed over certain roadways. The wooded areas are gone and the whole area very different. And yes, people here do take the warnings very seriously.\nAmy Sebring: Has the Nashville event made a difference in the emphasis in Tennessee, re: preparedness and mitigation for example? If you know.\nMark Rose: Amy, funny you should mention that. The National Weather Service has implemented a program called \"Storm Ready\", where a town or city takes certain measures of severe weather preparedness, and is certified by the NWS as being \"Storm Ready\". Nashville is the first city in middle Tennessee to be certified.\nRichard Foltman: Mark, 1) What are the estimated winds with an F5? 2) Should windows in office buildings in cities be laminated?\nMark Rose: Rick, the estimated wind speeds with an F5 are 261 to 318 mph. As far as laminating windows, I don't know how much good that does. And with an F5, it doesn't matter what you do.\nJudy Jaeger: Are Safe Rooms or storm shelters prevalent in Lawrence County? There is so little you can do to mitigate tornado damage.\nMark Rose: Judy, I'll let Avagene answer that.\nAvagene Moore: Judy, I don't think there are many Safe Rooms at this point but there is a gentleman here who is selling concrete storm shelters and doing quite well. The whole idea has been sold to the community as a necessity. We are believers!\nAmy Sebring: Just wanted to mention that we had a previous session on the StormReady program with John Ogren who is here today. For further info, see <http://www.emforum.org/vclass/000308.htm> .\nJohn Ogren: Or go to <http://www.nws.noaa.gov/stormready>.\nAmy Sebring: Regarding tornadoes hitting metropolitan areas, the Fort Worth tornado was after Nashville, I believe. How did that compare to the Nashville event, if you know?\nMark Rose: Amy, I believe the Fort Worth storm was an F2, but caused more damage in the downtown area than in Nashville.\nJudy Jaeger: What happened to the windows in Nashville office buildings?\nMark Rose: Judy, many of them shattered. Downtown was completely closed to traffic the following day. The cleanup took some time, with all the glass.\nJudy Jaeger: Several years ago, we stopped telling folks to tape their windows in the face of hurricanes, because flying shards of glass were worse than flying bits of glass.\nMark Rose: I would have to agree with that. In high winds, windows are going to get blown out anyway, no matter what you do. I guess its better to have a window shatter than to have it flying through the air intact.\nAmy Sebring: Mark, you mentioned that you and the other authors have been presenting these findings. Do you plan to collaborate in the future, have further study ideas on the drawing board so to speak?\nMark Rose: Amy, there was a second study done by me, one of the meteorologists who worked the event, and an engineer named Tim Marshall. We took some of the Doppler radar imagery, with radar-estimated wind speeds, and did a correlation between wind speeds, and damage. A link to the abstract of this study can be found at <http://www.srh.noaa.gov/bna/research.htm>. However, no further plans are in the works for another research effort. We will always be willing to present our findings. And I have never been involved in a project that has gotten as much airplay.\nAvagene Moore: Mark, we all know that warnings are critical. In your opinion, what should cities like Nashville and Lawrenceburg promote for the best, timely warnings? I remember Nashville pushing sirens. I have mixed feelings about sirens.\nMark Rose: Sirens are fine in small towns, where everybody can hear them. But in big cities, I don't know. Sometimes they can be unreliable. Of course, we always promote NOAA Weather Radio as being absolutely the fastest way to receive severe weather warnings.\nAmy Sebring: Has the Fujitsu scale stood up well over time? Has it proven useful? Can it be improved?\nMark Rose: Amy, as far as I am concerned, the Fujita scale cannot be improved upon. There are always ideas floating around about how it can be fine-tuned, but it has proven a very reliable scale of tornado intensity.\nTom Heath: The 'hooks' on fig 2 are very distinct. How good a predictor are they?\nMark Rose: Tom, hooks, at least very distinct ones as shown in the figure, are quite reliable. Before Doppler technology, hooks were the only method by which tornado warnings were issued by radar. But now, we don't usually issue radar-based tornado warnings without looking at a storm's wind profile.\nRichard Foltman: Mark, should the use of spotters be emphasized?\nMark Rose: We cannot over-emphasize the use of spotters. They are our best means for gathering information about storms in progress. One of the things we stress in spotter presentations are what we, the meteorologists see (radar images), and what the spotter sees (actual storms, tornadoes, hail, wind damage, etc.).\nDon Hartley: Sirens should only be one of several components of a warning package that includes, EAS, NOAA Weather Radio, faxes and pages, etc. Sirens are a particularly political thing here in West Alabama. After our killer F4 in December every neighborhood wants one. But Mark, I'm more concerned by automated radio stations that don't carry local severe weather EAS activations. During our tornado warning some members of the public report that a couple of stations never carried the warning. That's a real weakness in the warning chain.\nMark Rose: Don, indeed. Our warnings always carry the phrase \"EAS ACTIVATION REQUESTED\" as part of the header. Of course, radio and TV stations are not required to carry our warnings. But, I think it is a good policy, as it is a matter of public service. Again, that's why we always push NOAA Weather Radio.\nAmy Sebring: See also the Storm Prediction Center site at <http://www.spc.noaa.gov/> that has very dramatic photos of tornadoes at the moment. For a tornado FAQ sheet see <http://www.spc.noaa.gov/faq/tornado/>. The F-scale is found at <http://www.spc.noaa.gov/faq/tornado/f-scale.html>.\nAvagene Moore: Thanks, Amy. Mark, closing remarks?\nMark Rose: Well, again thanks for asking me to do this. I enjoyed the Q & A session. I wish you all the best.\nAvagene Moore: Thank you very much for being an informative presentation, Mark. We appreciate your time and effort on behalf of the EIIP Virtual Forum. Please stand by a moment while we take care of a couple of announcements.\nNext week, Wednesday March 28, 12:00 Noon EST, the Tech Arena features a session entitled \"Emergency Management Content and Collaboration: Incident Master Portal Fills The Gap.\" Our special guest speaker will be James W. Morentz, Ph.D., CEO, Essential Technologies, Inc. Please mark your calendar and make plans to join us next week.\nAudience, we appreciate your presence and participation today. We will adjourn the EIIP Virtual Library at this time. Please feel free to express your personal appreciation to Mark Rose for his presentation.",

This was probably because other footage was available and was used instead.\nWW2 broke out in Europe in 1939. In the Far East war broke out on December 7th 1941 when Japanese forces destroyed the US fleet at Pearl Harbor in Hawaii. The Japanese quickly followed up this victory with attacks on British held possessions in Malaya, Singapore and Burma. When Singapore fell the Japanese were holding around 110 000 Allied prisoners. Some of these prisoners were held in Singapore. Thousands more were shipped out to Burma to work on a railway for the Japanese forces, as well as other projects.\nThe death rates in Japanese prison camps were extremely high. Estimates vary from around 30% to 37%. The main causes of death were disease, inadequate food and brutal treatment by Japanese captors.\nThe total death toll on the Burma Railway was horrendous. Around 12 600 Allied prisoners of war died building the railway alone. Around 85 400 civilian slave workers from Malaya, Singapore, Java and Burma also died.\nThe Japanese government has been pressured by veterans to openly admit and apologise for the horrors of the Burma Railway and other projects. Japan believes it has done so but most British veterans do not believe that Japan has properly acknowledged what happened.\nDoes the clip give any clues about conditions for allied prisoners of war forced to build the Burma Railway?\nDoes this clip help you to understand why the troops who fought in the Far East feel they were forgotten?",

        "title": "Title III Grant FAQs | NCELA",
        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Grant Programs & Federal Policy \u00bb Title III Grant FAQs\nWhat is Title III?\nTitle III is a part of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 (ESEA), as amended by the Every Student Succeeds Act of 2015 (ESSA). The purpose of Title III is to help ensure that English learners (ELs) attain English language proficiency and meet state academic standards. Federal funding is provided through various grant programs to assist state education agencies (SEAs) and local education agencies (LEAs) in accomplishing this. Some funds are offered to entities other than SEAs and LEAs, and SEAs and LEAs also offer subgrants to other entities.\nWhat is the definition of an English learner (EL)?\nAccording to ESSA, an EL is an individual who\n1) is aged 3 through 21;\n2) is enrolled or preparing to enroll in an elementary school or secondary school;\n3) meets one of the following criteria\u2014\na) was not born in the United States, or whose native language is a language other than English;\nb) is a Native American or Alaska Native, or a native resident of the outlying areas; and comes from an environment where a language other than English has had a significant impact on the individual's level of English language proficiency (ELP); or\nc) is migratory, whose native language is a language other than English, and who comes from an environment where a language other than English is dominant\u2014and\n4) has difficulties in speaking, reading, writing, or understanding the English language, that may be sufficient to deny the individual\na) the ability to meet the challenging state academic standards;\nb) the ability to successfully achieve in classrooms where the language of instruction is English; or\nc) the opportunity to participate fully in society.\nWhat grant programs were created by Title III?\nThe Title III State Formula Grant Program provides federal monies to the states for the education of English learners. States are required to demonstrate that EL students are proficient in state content and achievement standards in mathematics, reading or language arts, and science, and that these students are progressing in their proficiency of the English language.\nThe National Professional Development Program supports professional development activities intended to improve instruction for EL students and assist education personnel working with such children to meet high professional standards.\nThe Native American and Alaska Native Children in School Program provides grants for eligible entities that support language instruction projects for ELs from Native American, Alaska Native, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander backgrounds.\nWho administers the Title III grant programs?\nAt the federal level, the Title III funds reserved for Native American and Alaska Native discretionary grants and National Professional Development discretionary grants\u2014along with funds allocated to the Outlying Areas, the National Clearinghouse for English Language Acquisition (NCELA), and relevant evaluation activities\u2014are administered by the Office of English Language Acquisition (OELA) at the U.S. Department of Education. Most Title III funds, however, are allocated to SEAs through State Formula Grants and administered by the Office of Elementary and Secondary Education (OESE) at the U.S. Department of Education.\nAre other federal funds available for EL education?\nNo, but a number of federal government programs fund research related to the education of English learners. NCELA provides a list of some of these programs, sponsored by offices in the Department of Education and in other departments and agencies. On that list, you will find links to program descriptions and applicant information, as well as links to funded research projects. The latter provide both examples of successful applicants to the various programs, and information on current research projects that may not yet have generated published findings.\nIs There Information Available To Guide The Implementation Of Title III Funded Programs And Services For ELs?\nIn addition to the relevant legislation (https://www.ed.gov/ESSA), to further clarify questions of implementation of the law, in September 2016, the U.S. Department of Education published a Non-Regulatory Guidance on Title III, English Learners, and the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965, as amended by ESSA. In 2015, the Department's Office for Civil Rights (OCR) and the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) jointly published a Dear Colleague Letter on \"English Learners and Limited English Proficient Parents,\" to help state and local education agencies understand their legal obligations to ELs under federal civil rights laws. The U.S. Department of Education's Office of English Language Acquisition has since published the English Learner (EL) Tool Kit (and updated it as necessary per ESSA), which follows the 10-section structure of the DCL, and offers key points, check lists, sample tools, and additional resources to further assist states, districts, and schools in their legal compliance and in meeting the needs of ELs. Additional information on civil rights obligations to ELs and limited English proficient parents can be found on OCR's ELL resources page, and particular information on inclusion of ELs with disabilities can be found at the web page of the Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services.",

        "raw_content": "Dispatches From the Edge: A Moral Dilemma Observed\nIn this entry Jason takes a long hard look at morality, throws up his hands and says, \"What's the point?\" But then he thinks better of it.\nThe other day I went shoe shopping. Normally I would go to Target, drop $20 to $30 and move on with my sordid affairs. But remember, life is different on the wrong side of employment. My current laze-about sneakers smell like week old garbage, so my need is dire.\nI sucked it up, held my head high, and trudged into the Goodwill. I go to secondhand stores all the time, but it is a much different feeling when you're going there out of need instead of want. I have never bought sneakers secondhand, figured they wouldn't have a good selection, and of course I wasn't wrong. Their collection was weak sauce, but after a few minute's spelunking I happened on a real prospect. They were cool looking and brand name (American Eagle) and so naturally I feared the worst: that they would make me pay through the nose. Secondhand stores know when they've got a good thing, and they were charging $15 for these way decent sneakers.\nI swore at the Goodwill (I'm not sure how low that is, to swear at an organization that exists to help the poor and needy, but I know it's pretty far down there). I cursed them for making my life difficult. There was no way I was going to issue that kind of jack from my wallet for used shoes when I could pay a few dollars more for brand new kicks.\nPresently the devious machinations began to flow.\nMy first thought wasn't bad; I checked to see if the red tags were half off. No go, it was green this week. My next thought was that I could simply put these shoes on and walk out of the place.\nLook, I know it's bad. I know it's ugly. I felt sullied and dirty as I felt my mind creeping into the sewer, but my powers of self-justification run so very deep. And I proceeded. I didn't want to wholesale rip them off because I didn't want to have to feel guilty about that later. Then I thought, well, hell, I could just switch the tags with a correctly priced pair of shoes. C'mon! This $15 nonsense is just not reasonable, I'm unemployed, won't someone hear my cry!?\nI mulled over my options. I was feeling guilty, a leader in a church selecting how it is he's going to sin against a charity. Then I thought, \"Well, I should at least try them on.\" Way too tight.\nNow, would I really have done any of these bad things? From the bottom of my heart, no, I don't think I would have. But I'm not any prettier for it. That doesn't get me any points. I had already ripped them off in my heart. My only real motivators for not committing a simple, low-risk shoplifting operation were shame and guilt. The analogy would be that I don't want the things that keep me from cheating on my wife to be shame and guilt. I want my love for her to be my overarching motivator. If I'm ever doing a cost-benefit analysis as to whether I should do something behind my wife's back, then I'll know that I'm already in trouble, even before the first shot is fired.\n(By the way, yes, your suspicions are correct: This blog just turned the corner and went preachy on your ass. Well, you know, I hope not, but obviously kinda that's what happened.)\nBut what's the connection? Was my love for the Goodwill supposed to sustain me through temptation? Hardly. C'mon, I'm a Christian who is trying to mean it, don't you see where this is going? It would be my love for Jesus that would hopefully be my prime motivator. The truth is that I can't really see a good reason not to slip on a pair of shoes that I happen to need that happened to be donated to a charitable organization. But God can, and last time I checked he's smarter than me. And he asked me not to do such things. The dude has done a lot for me, he always seems to be right, and I should trust him.\nThat's biblically based morality in a nutshell.\nLabels: Jason DesLongchamp, stealing, The Goodwill, Unemployment\nWow, way to be too honest Pastor Jason --- haha, just kidding baby. Really though your story (confession?) is a great picture for why He does it all and we don't do any of it.\n- JMD\np.s. glad to hear of your motivators for being faithful to me. ;)",

        "title": "The Power of Journaling \u2013 Eric Nehrlich, Unrepentant Generalist",
        "raw_content": "I have become a fierce advocate of journaling over the past year, and keep recommending it to people, so, as is my habit, I\u2019m now turning my thoughts into a blog post to make them easier to reference.\nI first got interested in journaling ten years ago after reading Becoming a Technical Leader, by Gerald Weinberg, where he said journaling 5 minutes a day was the best tool to improve as a leader. After reading that, I started journaling, but was inconsistent about it, and after about a year of journaling every other day, I gave up.\nI re-dedicated myself to journaling last year, after adopting the practice of the Personal Operating System. I found it helpful to have a weekly routine where I looked back on how I did on my precepts, celebrating my small victories where I lived the precepts, reflecting on why I sometimes wasn\u2019t able to live up to them, and tracking my progress over time. The last was incredibly valuable for me, as the amount of change in a week was nearly imperceptible, but when I looked back at my entries from a year before, I was often surprised to find how much I had changed. Even though each individual step was small, they accumulated into large personal changes.\nAnother value of journaling is in altering one\u2019s perception of the world. What we pay attention to affects what we see in the world. We have all had the experience of buying a gadget or a car, and then seeing what we just bought everywhere in the world \u2013 once you become attuned to an object, you notice it more, when before it would have just been another object. Similarly, if we journal on a set of questions or prompts, those questions or prompts will start to affect what we notice in the world. That was part of the power of the personal operating system for me \u2013 choosing precepts and journaling about them helped me see more opportunities to apply those precepts in my life. Journaling can be a tool for focusing our attention on the areas of our life that we want to change.\nI love David Cain\u2019s articles, and his article on tracking as a means of behavior change really nails it: \u201clet yourself do what you want as long as you track it. But it leads to lasting change far more quickly and painlessly than the conventional method. \u2026 the improvement comes from wisdom \u2014 a real-time understanding of the connectedness between our behaviors and the types of ease and difficulty we keep experiencing in our lives.\u201d He makes the excellent point that journaling is not about trying to make yourself look good, or to drive change in and of itself \u2013 just the act of seeing what you\u2019re doing and tracking it will lead to changes organically (or you\u2019ll decide you don\u2019t want to change and stop tracking).\nAlong those lines, an analogy I like is that journaling is like keeping a lab notebook on yourself. For those that haven\u2019t spent time in a research lab, lab notebooks are holy writ for scientists. Everything you do in the lab is written down. You write down what you are planning to try, what the experimental setup is, and what happened, even if it wasn\u2019t what you expected (especially when it wasn\u2019t what you expected). Each page is signed and dated, so you have traceability to exactly when the idea was thought of, and tried. The analogy to journaling is clear to me; journaling lets me track what I tried, what I thought was going to happen, and what worked and didn\u2019t work. I can look back and see the progress I have made and what I\u2019ve tried in the past, or just read through the things that went wonderfully right or terribly wrong.\nExtending that thought, journaling also helps to overcome the hindsight bias. When we look back on our lives, we often say \u201cOh, of course, I knew that was going to happen!\u201d But we didn\u2019t. By being more rigorous in writing down what we thought was going to happen and the factors we considered, we can learn from our patterns and make better decisions. Shane Parrish of Farnam Street (inspired by Daniel Kahneman) says that keeping a decision journal is the single best way to improve your decision making capabilities. We can\u2019t make better decisions in life without becoming aware of the blind spots and biases in our decision making process, and we can\u2019t do that without knowing what we considered (and failed to consider) in making a decision.\nI find journaling particularly useful in a different way for processing my emotions and learning to understand my emotional triggers. When I notice myself get triggered, I\u2019ll write about it later, and try to reconstruct the exact external event triggered me, and what internal reactions I had. By keeping track of both the event and my reactions, I am sometimes able to start seeing the underlying patterns and learn to understand why certain things triggered me, and how I could start re-designing my response to those triggers. But without the lab notebook of incidents where I got e.g. intensely defensive, I feel like I would just live my personal version of Groundhog Day in having the same reaction happen over and over again.\nIf you would like to make a change in your behavior, I highly recommend journaling. I\u2019d be happy to help you brainstorm journal prompts related to the behavior change that you desire. For instance, if you were interested in productivity, I would suggest writing down the 1-3 things you want to get done at the beginning of the day and why they are important. Then at the end of the day, you would review how you accomplished those things, or what stopped you if you weren\u2019t successful (we\u2019ll get more into this in the next post). And, over time, you would start to see the patterns that stop you from achieving your priorities, and learn to adjust your expectations to closer match what you can actually achieve. That\u2019s just one example, and I\u2019d love to help you figure out prompts that would apply to you. Get in touch!\n2 thoughts on \u201cThe Power of Journaling\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Patriots 53 Man Roster Prediction\nHarvey Langi looks to be an UDFA contributor this year. (AP/Elise Amendola)\nThe yearly task of predicting a seemingly unpredictable compilation of players that will seemingly win the Super Bowl is upon us. It's time to figure out who Bill wants on this team. A task Nostradamus would shudder at. Toughest part is that he likely doesn't even know. With several weeks still left in the preseason many things can instantly change the dynamic of a team. Just this week the injury to Derek Rivers puts a dent into most, if not all, roster projections made up til this point. Trades, cuts, injuries, suspensions, an endless list of potential variables dictate the outcome of this list. How does anyone have the mental capacity to take on such an unforgiving and mind shattering task? For me, I said \"screw it, let's build a Super Bowl winner\" and got down to it.\nNotes: They are in order of how I feel the \"depth chart\" will end up. Players on IR/NFI/PUP are included and noted as such. Age is of 8/18/2017.\nThe master. The apprentice. The novice. There is no trio of quarterbacks in the league more interesting or more talented than this group right here. The future may be murky, but the present may be as bright as those lights illuminating Gillette Stadium on opening night.\nTom Brady (40) - The Greatest of All-Time has a full season ahead of him at the ripe old age of 40, and from all indications he hasn't slowed down at all. With arguably the best offense we've seen around him since 2011 Brady could once again defy mortality and put up a season worthy of MVP status and god-like recognition. I'm sure he's as giddy as a schoolgirl to carve up the NFL.\nJimmy Garoppolo (25) - The International Man of Mystery (Yeah, baby!) has truly become about as polarized as any player we've seen in recent history. Many people (myself included) would not have been shocked to see him shipped off last spring for a king's ransom. Others proclaim him as the rightful heir to the king. In reality, hopefully we don't need to hear or think about Jimmy again until mid February. That's when the real drama will begin.\nJacoby Brissett (24) - Brissett did well in limited action last year despite being practically thumbless. So far this year he's been asked to do much less given Brady's freedom, and sadly he hasn't exactly made a huge step forward. It could be due to a variety of factors such as less pressure, working with lesser talent with the third team, or a stereotypical sophomore slump. Regardless he has the promise to be a reliable back up if nothing else, and that makes him valuable.\nThis group has a lot of unknowns to it. New faces and concerning injuries have dampened the mood on what arguably is the most improved position on this roster. Each offers their own flavor of versatility, and none are one dimensional, something that could not be said last year. That alone has me excited about this group's potential.\nMike Gillislee (26) - Gillislee has been on ice for quite a while now. Many fans are concerned, and understandably so, though as with several other players I believe this is precautionary. No one else on this roster can run with the authority that Gillislee can. White, Lewis, and Burkhead all have versatility and receiving ability, but I have my doubts that they can bowl over a linebacker like Gillislee can. He may not end up being the touchdown machine Blount was last year, but I envision that his success on 1st and 2nd down will be a significant improvement over what we've seen the last two years, and that can make a world of difference for this offense.\nJames White (25) - The unofficial Super Bowl co-MVP. James White came alive in the playoffs last year, crescendo-ing in the Super Bowl. His ability to catch the ball, shake tackles, and get the yards needed to move the chains has improved year after year, and his significant extensions shows that the Patriots believe he will continue to do just that. He may not pound the ball between the tackles, but his availability and reliability are second to none out of this group.\nRex Burkhead (27) - Burkhead's acquisition was written on the wall months before it happened given his stylistic fit into the Patriots philosophy. He has flashed as a receiver in camp and has shown great burst in the run game. His ability to line up as a WR, RB, or wing, as well as his special teams prowess, makes Burkhead one of the bigger under the radar acquisitions of this offseason and we saw that on full display in the second week on the preseason. Burkhead will be a true weapon on this team.\nDion Lewis (26) - Lewis is another player with a lot of polarized opinions. Some think he's a lock, some think he'll be traded, others that he'll be outright cut. Fact of the matter is he makes plays. He's now entering his 2nd year post ACL surgery, which has historically been the year that most players return to form. In practice and preseason games I have found no reason to doubt he's as close to how he used to be. Leaving defenders' jock straps in the dust, turning five yard losses into two yard gains, and offering a dynamic check down option. I like Lewis, and I like his odds of making this roster.\nThere should be no surprise here. Develin has been as reliable and effective as you can ask from one of the most grueling, and least celebrated, positions in football. Another year after his unfortunate leg injury should help his effectiveness even more.\nJames Develin (29) - Develin was limited in the beginning of the year last year, still coming back from his leg injury. Now as an all-purpose banger, he is the battering ram of this offense. You need a linebacker taken out of the picture? Develin's your man. Need a check down that no one pays attention to? Develin will make it a first down. Need someone to be on nearly every special team? He'll be there. An unsung hero that will never get the recognition he deserves (from people not named Andy Hart), Develin is all you could ask for from a fullback.\nTight end is a position of intrigue year in and year out due to the delicate nature of arguably the greatest player to ever play the position. Gronk can single-handedly dominate an NFL game, something few humans have ever been able to accomplish. He has more receiving touchdowns than anyone in the league since 2010. He's also missed 24 games since 2010. Which makes depth at this position a necessity. That's why I believe they need four tight ends this year.\nRob Gronkowski (28) - 69. Yo soy fiesta. Gronk Smash. You will not find a more entertaining player in the NFL on or off the field. I will not expect him to play a full season ever again. A sad reality, but reality nonetheless. What I will expect, though, is that he will be such an impactful part of the games he does play in that it will infuriate defensive coordinators, demoralize all 11 players on defense, and shatter records otherwise thought unobtainable. Craziest part is that this team won the Super Bowl without him...and they improved over the offseason.\nDwayne Allen (27) - Allen got off to a rough start in Foxborough, but has come on strong of late. Blocking as his forte, Allen looks to be a proven tight end in this offense that has the athleticism at running back to bounce big plays outside. His hands have become more reliable, his blocking has been phenomenal, and you know Belichick and McDaniels will get the best out of him.\nJames O'Shaughnessy (25) - A heat seeking missile on special teams and a solid athlete on offense, O (as I will refer to him as this season) offers a workable skill set that Belichick covets. He won't tear up defenses on offense, but he'll slice through your kick and punt return teams and make the tackle. As a move tight end he offers functional blocking and a decent option in the passing game. He may never flash, but O will do his job.\nJacob Hollister (23) - Hollister is more than an overpriced teenage clothing brand, he's a tight end with the will and grit to make the tough plays. We saw this in the first preseason game where he hurdled defenders, got knocked into last week, and out-leaped defenders. His effectiveness on offense has been met with cautious optimism (thanks Sudfeld), but I believe it's warranted. The Patriots need a playmaker at tight end if Gronk goes down and Hollister offers that potential.\nThere are a lot of familiar faces at wide receiver, which is always a good thing. The new face of Brandin Cooks, though, opens up an entirely new world of possibilities. No longer can teams press the receivers at the line of scrimmage and man up. This veteran core, with Brady's trust, can be as deadly a group from the first guy to the last as you will see on an NFL roster.\nJulian Edelman (31) - The flying squirrel made arguably the greatest catch in Super Bowl history (screw you Tyree) and has shown year in and year out that there's nothing he won't do to pick up a few extra yards. Edelman hopefully knows now that he isn't immortal and that he does more good for the team on the field than on the trainer's table. I'm not sure you can find a better teammate than Jules, and you might not find a more fearless and determined player on the team (besides Brady). His place on this team is unquestioned, even in his 30's.\nBrandin Cooks (23) - It's almost unbelievable that he's only 23 years old. Like how in the world is he so young and yet one of the most dangerous receivers in the game? Add him to THIS offense, with THIS quarterback...instant chills. His greatest impact may be how he changes how defenses will attack this offense. You cannot ask 95% of cornerbacks to man up with him and cover him from snap to whistle. With his speed, explosiveness, and release teams will have to back off of him. Add in Brady's ability to move him around at will and alter his route and you have a cheat code against a defense on Rookie difficulty. The possibilities are endless.\nChris Hogan (28) - Hogan has been a force in camp so far, locking up the third receiver role convincingly. His big play ability last year came out of nowhere and provided a spark to an offense that used to rely on methodical movement. There's not much to add on Hogan, as he's seamlessly picked up from where he left off last year with his reliable play.\nMalcolm Mitchell (24) - Mitchell has cemented himself in Patriots lore for his efforts as a rookie on and off the field. An author and a successful Patriots rookie wide receiver, which is more rare to see? He's been on an injury management plan so far this offseason given his various health issues, but when he has practiced he has shown the same playmaking ability that we saw last year. I expect another year of development with steady improvement.\nDanny Amendola (31) - Amendola is no lock to make this team. He isn't. But he is also one of the most reliable receivers in the NFL with the third highest catch percentage. You can't find that in most superstar receivers, let alone your fifth on the depth chart. That reliability, paired with Brady's trust in him, are irreplaceable when it matters most. He may not get 80 receptions and 800 yard this year, but when he's asked to go out there he's going to get the job done when he's called upon.\nAustin Carr (23) - Carr was the last player I added to this roster. Not because he isn't talented, but because six receivers without including Slater is abnormal for this roster. I'm still not convinced he makes it, but his youth at a position where the players above him on the depth chart in his role are both 31 years old makes him a commodity the Patriots cannot afford to move on from. To keep the position fresh you need to have players like Carr, and he's shown so far that he deserves that chance.\nAn entire unit returning is a rare thing in today's NFL. The Patriots return their entire starting offensive line with three of those individuals under 26 years old and improving. Outside of Solder's injury there is a ton of optimism about this group.\nNate Solder (29) - Not a lot of information has been given about the nature of Solder's injury, which has caused some panic amongst Patriots Nation. Solder has been through a lot. I mean he beat testicular cancer while his own son had cancer. It's going to take a lot to keep him off the field. I think he will be fine for when the season starts and provide his usual services on Brady's blind side unless more details of his injury come to ligh.\nJoe Thuney (24) - Thuney started off scorching hot last year and then cooled off as the year went on. Now in his second year in the system, hopefully his flaws at the end of the year and his conditioning have been improved upon. Thuney has high expectations this year, and I believe he will meet them head on.\nDavid Andrews (25) - Andrews received a contract extension when it was quite unclear what his future with the team would be. Having Brady's utmost trust is a special thing, and hopefully he continues to improve with time.\nShaq Mason (23) - I feel that it is important to remind people that A) Mason came from a team that runs the ball nearly 87% of their plays and B) he's only 23 years old. He's still learning. He's still growing. He's still developing. And he's made big strides in his pass protection. The meanest run blocker on the team now enters his third year where he can once again improve.\nMarcus Cannon (29) - The biggest and best surprise last year was Marcus Cannon. Fans hated him, and I mean hated him, the year prior. I, myself, did not see him having a future with the team. He went and got healthy, lost weight, and turned into one of, if not the best right tackle in the entire NFL. Word is he's been even better this summer, shutting down the likes of JJ Watt with relative ease. Given the pass rushers he will be facing this year, his success is pivotal for the success of this team.\nTed Karras (24) - Karras has been groomed to be a guard/center, invaluable versatility for a backup. So far he has done quite well in that role. Given that there are no other centers of note currently on the team (Ferentz being the only other center), it further echoes the importance of Karras being on this roster.\nAntonio Garcia (23) - Garica hopefully will not see the field this year. His fate is to become the heir to Nate Solder. His injuries have limited him so far in camp, which has been disappointing to say the least. Part of me wonders if this leads to him being \"red shirted\" this year on IR, allowing for the likes of Cam Fleming or Connor McDermott to be on the roster so that Garcia can develop behind the scenes. Time will tell how Garcia's season will end up.\nLaAdrian Waddle (26) - Waddle has starting experience now at left and right tackle over his NFL career. While he may not be the sexiest name at backup tackle, that swing tackle role is up in the air and Waddle has solid experience there and the skills to get the job done. To be completely honest, either Fleming or Waddle could claim this spot and neither would surprise me. Just depends on who shows up the rest of the summer.\nAndrew Jelks (NFI) (23) - The UDFA out of Vanderbilt has prototypical NFL size for a tackle, and by stashing him on the NFI list the Patriots may keep him around for next year to have him compete for a role.\nHere is how the starting offense would look in an 11 (one tight end, one running back) formation:\n(Cooks) (Solder) (Thuney) (Andrews) (Mason) (Cannon) (Gronk)\n(Edelman) (Hogan)\n(Brady) (Gillislee)\nThe big men up front may be the most consistent group on this team. Rarely miss games, rarely get rattled, rarely let the team down. The addition of Guy should bring a lot more versatility to this group and allow them to positions themselves to best help the defense as a whole. Brown and Valentine look to continue to improve, while Branch looks to keep his renaissance going.\nMalcom Brown (23) - Brown is taken from the same cloth that many great Patriots defensive linemen have been cut from. His contributions may never show up on the stat sheet, but he does his job and he helps the defense be at its best. He keeps his gap, sheds his blocks, makes his plays or lets his teammates make theirs. His role cannot be understated, and he's still getting better on top of it all.\nAlan Branch (32) - Branch is a journeyman whose journey keeps going. He's been through it all, he's seen it all, but yet he still wants more. And he still brings it. His efforts last year, with his age and size, were nothing short of inspiring. His contributions in the run game helped the defense make up for its deficiencies and forced teams to worry about his gigantic body moving the entire line to his will. So far, despite missing most of the beginning of the preseason, he has looked in shape and ready to go this year.\nLawrence Guy (27) - Guy was another underrated addition this spring. His ability to line up in a variety of techniques enticed Belichick to bring him in for the long haul. While we haven't been able to fully appreciate what he brings to the team, his usefulness will prove itself over the course of the season. He could line up outside, inside, and over the center depending on the situation. Yet another variable for opposing teams to be worried about.\nVincent Valentine (23) - Valentine was somewhat of a surprise draft pick last year. I didn't even have him on my draft board, an admitted fault of my own. He may not have lit up the stat sheet, but he had flashes of getting after the quarterback and creating disruption on the other side of the line of scrimmage. A back injury limited him in the Super Bowl, and I'm sure the motivation of that will propel him to push himself even further this year.\nDE (5/3 Techniques)\nThis is where I begin to explain how I view this defense. There will be defensive ends that will play with their hand in the dirt, inside and outside of the tackle. That's this group. Ends that will line up as 5 (outside tackle's shoulder) or 3 (outside guard's shoulder) techniques given their skill set and size are a big part of the defense that the Patriots run. Flowers will continue to thrive in that right defensive end role getting after the quarterback and controlling his edge. The left defensive end role will need players who can control the line and create opportunities for others, all while being able to drop into coverage unexpectedly.\nTrey Flowers (24) - Flowers became the player everyone hoped he would be last year. His long arms and explosive power became a key component of the postseason push. Now in his third year, I expect Flowers to continue to ascend into a prominent role. As the best player at his position on a Super Bowl defending team, at the age of 24, the pressure will be on.\nDeatrich Wise (23) - Wise was someone that was pegged to be a Patriot long before his name was called this spring. His former college teammate, the aforementioned Trey Flowers, has succeeded in his role with the team and Wise looks to pick up his own success. Where Flowers is quick and explosive, Wise is big and powerful. He will excel at controlling the edge and shedding blockers to get after the ball. His concussion is a setback, but I'm not concerned about his role on this team.\nKony Ealy (25) - Acquired for chump change, the Patriots added Ealy prior to the draft to bolster a position in need of some help. So far Ealy has underwhelmed, and he may not even be in the role the Patriots originally envisioned for him. The way I've interpreted his performance so far is that the Pats are asking him to do a lot more than he's ever been asked, and he's not picking it up as quickly as they had hoped. The hesitation has affected his performance and that's why we've seen him struggle. Whereas Flowers and Wise may play more 5 technique, I see Ealy being used as an interior end in a 3 technique primarily. He's in rough waters right now and needs to prove himself worthy of a roster spot sooner rather than later.\nDerek Rivers (IR) (23) - Rivers' ACL tear is a tough break for the promising rookie. I didn't envision him having a large role for the majority of the season given his need for development, but he would have contributed as a pass rush specialist and on various special teams. Given the nature of the position, and the barren landscape of free agents at the moment, it is a more difficult blow to deal with, but nothing they cannot overcome.\nThis is the group of players that have changed the way the Patriots play defense. They can drop into coverage, rush the passer, or control the edge. To me this is one of the most important roles on this team, and that's why they've added so much talent to this group. They are hybrid linebackers and defensive ends that have the most asked of them every time they step on the field.\nDont'a Hightower (27) - If Hightower did not return to the Patriots this offseason the team would have come out much differently than it has. His value to the Pats, given his expertise in this role thanks to a rare skill set, was higher than that of Chandler Jones, Jamie Collins, and in reality, almost every free agent in this year's class. The team has him in bubble wrap at the moment, and I'm more than okay with that. He knows this defense better than anyone and he will likely slip back into his role come week one and look like he was never missing.\nKyle Van Noy (26) - Van Noy is another player I expect to take a big step forward this year. Being acquired in the middle of the season, changing defenses, cultures, states, is a lot to throw on a person. He didn't have the summer to learn the calls, audibles, and his teammates' tendencies which is a big disadvantage. Now that he has all that, Van Noy should be able to be unleashed with his full potential this year.\nShea McCellin (28) - McClellin may be just another guy on this defense, but he's going into his second year with the team with, hopefully, a more defined role that he can focus on and perfect. He won't be getting double digit sacks, he won't have 100 tackles, and he's certainly not going to win MVP, but his contributions in the edge and linebacker rotations will go a long way with keeping others fresh and healthy if nothing else.\nHarvey Langi (24) - Langi is my guy. I proclaimed my love of him during the draft process and had him pegged as a late round pick given his age and playing out of position, but the Patriots decided to dole out the highest possible UDFA contract for him instead. In his first few preseason games we saw his instincts on the edge, which was very promising in my eyes. I'm excited about his potential and his future.\nKeionta Davis (NFI) (23) - Davis is a big guy (6'3\" 271 lbs) with long arms (34\") which are trademarks of recent Patriots edge defenders. He went undrafted due to a bulging disk in his neck. He plays gritty, willing to do what he's asked to do, and was quite productive in college. Belichick worked him out himself and admitted they've done a lot of work on him. I believe he goes to the NFI list so the Patriots can stash him for next year and to give him ample time to heal.\nAt first glance you will think \"why are there only two players here?\" To clarify, I believe these are the two players that will ONLY play inside linebacker and not partake in the action at the line of scrimmage. Harris' addition was possibly my favorite of the entire offseason. He allows Hightower to play at the line of scrimmage where we have seen him alter the course of football history. Roberts still has room to improve, but he's possibly the hardest hitter on the team and can continue to build off his impressive rookie year.\nDavid Harris (33) - In today's NFL, at the linebacker position, it is difficult to stay healthy and consistent. Haris has missed one game since 2009 and only six games in his 10 year NFL career, averaging well over 100 tackles a season in that time. His mentality and character fit into the Patriot Way seamlessly, and his veteran experience and leadership will go a long way in a relatively young defensive core.\nElandon Roberts (23) - Roberts had some highlights, and some lowlights, last year in his rookie season. We some him drop the hammer on numerous running backs...and we saw him completely blow coverages in the Super Bowl that went for huge gains. He's not a finished product, but his wrecking ball style is something that is lacking on this team, and that physicality in the middle cannot be ignored. If there were more depth at this position he'd be in bigger trouble for a roster spot, but I simply don't see another player on the team that can do what he does in this role.\nI LOVE the top three players at this position, and I have the utmost confidence in their abilities. My issue is that, as with the rest of this defense, each player has a skill set and a role associated with that skill set. They can matchup with the big and physical wide receivers, but I'm concerned about the tiny speedsters in the slot. Jonathan or Cyrus Jones needs to be able to step into that important role. Right now Jonathan appears to have the step up, but time will tell on how they plan on how to address the slot role.\nMalcolm Butler (27) - This is a big year for Butler. Possibly his last chance to cash in is on the horizon. The elder statesman of the group, Super Bowl hero, top ten at his position and yet his future with the team is anything but certain. With a stellar season Butler can command top money, from the Patriots or another team, so he has every reason to go all out this year.\nStephon Gilmore (26) - The biggest surprise of the offseason, and possibly of the last several years was Gilmore's signing. The money, the position, and the surprise surrounding it all made many question the logic behind the move. Gilmore had a down year last year with the Bills, but Bill knows how to get the best out of his players. Gilmore can be extremely effective in the press man style the Patriots have had continued success with of late. He will maul receivers at the line of scrimmage and make every catch contested. This is the best cornerback duo in New England in a long while.\nEric Rowe (24) - Rowe gets a lot of unwarranted hate from fans. Another player that did not have the benefit of a full offseason with the team, Rowe stepped in last year and found his role midway through the season. His performance in the Super Bowl, tasked with covering elite receiver Julio Jones, did not receive the credit it deserved. No human alive could've stopped those catches Jones made, and Rowe had near perfect coverage on each one. This year he will again be tasked with covering bigger receivers and matching their physicality with his own.\nJonathan Jones (23) - One of the initial surprises out of spring practices was the news that Jones was practicing with the starters in the nickel role. Jones has 4.33 speed and has shined as a gunner on punt coverage. If he can translate that speed on special teams to the defense he may be the missing link in this secondary.\nCyrus Jones (23) - I know you were groaning the second you saw his name. I know. I get it. Fact of the matter is Jones has the physical ability to do well in this league, he just needs to find a role to concentrate on and build up his confidence and comfortability. Whether that position is kick returner, cornerback, or free safety is anyone's guess at this point, but I don't believe Belichick gives up on him this early. With how he performed last week with the ball in his hands his return ability seems to be his best way to contribute this upcoming season.\nThis is, in my honest opinion, the shallowest position on the team after the starters. With the Patriots employing a heavy dose of Cover 1 Robber (one high safety with another in zone coverage shallow and underneath the high safety) they need all three of the starting safeties to take part. With Richards continuing to struggle it is hard to justify him having a roster spot, and Ebner and King aren't exactly defensive players.\nDevin McCourty (30) - McCourty's responsibilities took another twist last year with Duron Harmon stepping into a more prominent and defined role. McCourty would cover running backs and tight ends split out wide, he would cover the underneath middle of the field in his robber role, and he would stay back deep when they didn't have Harmon in. His versatility and veteran leadership make him another prime example of the Patriots, and I expect another stellar year from him.\nPatrick Chung (30) - After a dominant 2015 Chung took a slight step back last year. Minor injuries seemed to be the biggest culprit in my opinion. This year hopefully he can stay healthy, as his ability to play strong safety and slot corner are invaluable and unique. His passion and fire are needed on a defense filled with passive leaders.\nDuron Harmon (26) - Need a timely interception to ice the game? Harmon will be there. A guy who seems to always be in the right place at the right time, Harmon continued to show his value back deep. In the offseason this year he mentioned that he was trying to bulk up so that he can be more of a factor in the run game. To me it sounds like they want him to be able to take some snaps away from Chung who played over 96% of defensive snaps last year. Something to monitor going forward.\nThe usual names populate this list. Ghost looks to continue to rebound from his struggles. Allen looks to keep pinning teams team. Cardona looks to serve his country and his team. The rest of the crew looks to hit kick returners as quickly and as hard as possible.\nStephen Gostkowski (33) - Ghost was not his normal self last year. After three straight years of having a field goal percentage over 91% he nailed 84.4% of his kicks in 2016. While some people mentioned cutting him, it is important to note that 84.4% is better than what Adam Vinatieri has done in 11 of his 21 seasons. I attribute his struggles to a change in the touchback rules, which made him kicking to the goal line the better option rather than booting it through the endzone. As the season progressed he did improve as he adjusted. I think we will see more of the old Ghost this season.\nRyan Allen (27) - Allen had a down year as well, but it was more subtle than Gostkowski's down year. Allen only managed to get 23 of his 72 kicks inside the 20 yard line and averaged only 44.7 yards per punt, both career lows. No real reason to be concerned, but it's important to note that Allen could and should be better this year.\nJoe Cardona (25) - I cannot recall a terrible long snap last year. You cannot ask for much more than that. Cardona does his job, and his duty.\nMatthew Slater (31) - Slater's injury is the only one that I'm genuinely concerned about. We have heard very little about it and he's been MIA for quite some time. If there is anyone potentially set to miss time in the regular season it is likely Slater. His leadership on special teams and in the locker room cannot be replaced.\nNate Ebner (28) - Ebner has Belichick's respect, which is all you could ever ask for as a Patriots player. Ebner does what he needs to do to succeed in the roles he's been placed in. I'm sure with a full football offseason he shouldn't miss a beat from where he's left off in the past.\nBrandon King (24) - King is another Swiss Army Knife on special teams, and likely someone who will again lead the team in special teams tackles this year. Would be something to see him contribute elsewhere though given his size and speed.\nHere is how the starting defense would look in my purposed formation of a 5-1-5 in Cover 1 Robber:\n(Harmon)\n(McCourty)\n(Harris) (Chung)\n(Butler) (Flowers) (Brown) (Branch) (Wise) (Hightower) (Gilmore)\nEvery single player on this list could easily make the 53 man roster should an injury occur at their position. It's also equally as likely that another team will poach several of these players and use them on their own 53 man roster.\nGlenn Gronkowski (24) FB - Glenn has proven to be a reliable practice player. He can fill a variety of roles as a fullback and tight end, and can be a solid special teams option in a pinch for the 53. Versatility and emergency reliability are two key factors in making the practice squad.\nDJ Foster (23) RB/WR - I hope like all hell they are able to stash him again. His performances have been impressive, but at the moment he's either a receiver or runningback, which are arguably the two deepest positions on the team. Another versatile guy who can offer kick return experience as well, Foster is an ideal practice squad candidate.\nMatt Lengel (26) TE - Lengel showed some promising flashes last year, but with Dwayne Allen and the likes of newcomers Hollister and O'Shaughnessy it becomes nearly impossible to have five tight ends. Another guy who can fill in on special teams or at tight end if the position becomes decimated.\nAdam Butler (23) DT - Butler is someone who, with another year of training and learning, could fight for a roster spot next year. He has the tools, it just needs to be refined with fewer talented veterans in front of him. Butler has some serious promise if they can manage to keep him around.\nKenny Moore (21) CB - Moore keeps showing up. I almost had him making the 53. The fact that he's the youngest player on the roster also doesn't hurt. Another promising young guy that can grow behind the tutelage of Butler, Gilmore, and Rowe. I'm a fan of Kenny Moore.\nConor McDermott (24) OT - With McDermott it's a numbers game. Lot of tackles on the roster, only enough space for a few. I think he could use a year to fully build up his newfound size and develop his balance and core strength. He has the size, now he just has to perfect how to use it.\nDevin Lucien (24) WR - Lucien again is put behind the eight ball with Hogan and Mitchell both on the roster ahead of him. It's clear that he has the talent, it's just impossible to field every NFL capable receiver on this roster. I hope like crazy he can stick around as it would be bittersweet to see him succeed with another team.\nLeShun Daniels Jr (22) RB - Daniels impressed me in the first preseason game. He showed nice patience, decent burst, and a willingness to be physical. Given the fragile nature of the Patriots running backs it would be greatly beneficial to have someone take some snaps away from them during the week and Daniels seems like a solid candidate.\nTrevor Bates (23) LB - Bates is another guy that has shown up at times, and given the lack of depth at ILB, he was also very close to making the roster. His responsibility of wearing the green dot shouldn't go unnoticed, but he's still got some room to improve.\nJamil Douglas (25) OL - Douglas has shown that he can hold his own in practice. Given the lack of depth at the position he could be called into action potentially this season and I believe the Patriots would be okay with that. His size allows him to play all over the line and he continues to improve.\nLast Few In:\nAustin Carr - WR\nKony Ealy - DE\nJacob Hollister - TE\nLaAdrian Waddle - OT\nElandon Roberts - LB\nLast Few Out:\nKenny Moore - CB\nAdam Butler - DT\nDevin Lucien - WR\nConor McDermott - OT\nDJ Foster - RB/WR\nLet me know what you think. I'd love to have a fun discussion about this.\nFeel free to follow me on Twitter @PatriotsInform.",

        "title": "Tips For Getting Rid Of Blackheads",
        "raw_content": "Blackheads- they look just as unattractive as the name sounds. They can appear suddenly overnight without warning and once they do make an appearance, they don\u2019t ever seem to want to disappear. Blackheads are not painful, however their appearance is a clear indication that the pores of your skin desperately need to be cared for. When blackheads are left untreated, they can spread quite rapidly. The most common places for them to appear are on the chin, around the nose and on the nose.\nIn medical terms a blackhead is referred to as an open comedo. It is a non-inflamed mark of acne that is black or dark brown in color on the pore\u2019s surface. They are frequently mistaken for dirt that you can scrub off. However, that isn\u2019t possible. What they are really are is a combination of acne-causing bacteria, sebum (excess oil) and dead skin that becomes dark in color when it comes into contact with the air. Blackheads are the first stage of the acne formation process. If they are not treated, they can spread and also form pimples, which are also referred to as pustules or papules.\nAcne and blackheads typically develop during puberty as hormones rise up to the skin\u2019s surface. This then causes more sebum (oil) to be produced by the sebaceous glands, which causes the skin\u2019s surface to have an excessive amount of oil on it, which makes the skin oily and clogs the pores with acne-causing bacteria and sebum. The pores turn dark in color or black after these substances that are clogging the pores get exposed to air.\nHow To Treat And Minimize Blackheads\n1. Wash your skin two times a day using a gentle cleanser, once in the morning and then again at night. This will remove acne-causing bacteria, residue and oil buildup that if left unwashed would tend to cause acne.\n2. Exfoliate your skin a minimum of 3 times per week in order to remove any dead skin cells that may contribute to clogging the pores of your skin. When you remove dead skin cells, acne-causing bacteria, oil and dead skin are removed from the pores. After the skin has been gently exfoliated, rejuvenated and new skin can surface, which will minimize formation of acne, oily skin and blackheads.\n3. Try using a topical treatment that either your dermatologist has prescribed or an over-the-counter product. Topical treatments that are either benzoyl peroxide gel or salicylic acid cream fight blackheads from the pore root. The topical treatment should be applied after you have washed and moisturized your skin. Both ingredients are contained in the three-step skincare system from Proactive. Although it has mixed reviews, some people have had a lot of success using it.\n4. Always moisturize after cleansing. It is absolutely essential to do this. An oil-free moisturizer should be used so that you don\u2019t get more acne, clog your pores or so your skin doesn\u2019t get more oily or greasy. If you don\u2019t moisturize on a regular basis, your skin will be more oily and you will break out more because more oil will be pulled to the surface of your skin, as you skin attempts to balance its pH levels. This will clog your pores with acne-causing bacteria and oil.",

For decades, this organization has been there to boost the morale of our servicemen and women, at home and abroad. From entertaining the troops overseas, to establishing welcome centers across the country, to reaching out to the families of service members, the USO has long demonstrated the enduring American tradition of respect and support for our armed forces.\nAt Northrop Grumman, we share this tradition, working positively and creatively with the USO over many years for the benefit of service members. For example, Northrop Grumman was the first supporter of the Operation USO Care Package program, and has contributed money, resources and time to the care package program and to USO centers around the world.\nThrough this sponsorship of the Military Bowl, Northrop Grumman has been able to expand this relationship, delivering all net proceeds from the game to the USO.

        "raw_content": "An interesting aspect of the 2007/2008 financial crisis was the remarkable success of the Canadian banks in weathering it as compared to banks in most other countries. Canada was the only G7 country that did not have a government bank bailout. Canadian banks remained profitable through the crisis. A World Economic Forum report ranked Canada first among 134 countries on the soundness of its banks. Canada was widely applauded for its performance, including by US President Obama, who noted \u201cCanada has shown itself to be a pretty good manager of the financial system and the economy in ways that we haven\u2019t always been.\u201d Newspaper headlines like \u201cWhat Toronto can teach New York and London\u201d proliferated. Not surprisingly, this success has created a great deal of interest in looking to Canada for lessons on what policies and regulations should be put into place to prevent or manage future crises.\nAuthor: Tony Porter",

        "raw_content": "How I Became An Expert on Chimes\nHow To Avoid Door Chime Issues The number of people who are opting to now have the door chimes in their houses keeps increasing. Therefore, this is now a practical solution for the problem of the visitors having to knock for an extended period on the door. The quality of these equipment keeps increasing over time as manufacturers seek to come up with better equipment. Some of them are those that have lights for the hearing impaired or even those that are water proof. However, there are some problems you may get when using these cordless door equipment. However such issues should not trouble you as there are always ways to handle such problems. Most people complain that there might be a problem with the short limiting range that is from the bell push. This is not the entire truth. You can overcome this minor issue by choosing to buy those machines that have a range that is longer. The selection you make should be determined by the size of your home and also the distance that is between the bell push and the main chime. Another major complaint is the interference that happens when two or more devices that are similar are found in the same area. This may not be a major problem as not all the machines will tend to be affected by this interference. When you are having such a problem, the one thing you can do is to find the unit that has more than one frequency. This way, it cannot interfere or be interfered with other chime equipment that uses the same frequency.\nGetting Creative With Doorbells Advice\nAnother major concern is whether to buy a plug-in or a battery-operated chime. You can choose whatever device you want depending on what you prefer. If you buy a battery operated chime, you will realize that it offers the same advantages as those run by electricity. You will also not have to be worried that the effectiveness will decrease as time passes. Most of those times that are operated using the battery will use little power. These batteries can serve you for a long time depending on the usage. When you find that changing the batteries is an issue, then you need to find those devices that use electricity. When you use the plugins, you will not have the need to keep changing the batteries, and therefore your hassle is reduced. There are some things that you need to keep in mind when you choose the plug-in equipment. Ensure that the device you get is one that is energy efficient so that you are not forced to pay a high electric bill.\nWhen you go to the market, you will find various designs of door chimes that can be appropriate for the business or home that you own.\n\u2190 Why Tips Aren\u2019t As Bad As You Think 5 Key Takeaways on the Road to Dominating Guides \u2192",

Sproul interviews Ben Stein\u2026\n\u2026about his upcoming movie \u201cExpelled: No Intelligence Allowed\u201d\nThe Church of Oprah Exposed\nA good video that should remove all doubt (as if there were any) about the false teacher Oprah Winfrey. She and her guru Tolle are clearly anti-Christs.\nHumanist Sunday Schools and Free Thought?\nIt's at the Humanist Community, where for a few hours every Sunday the humanists, as they call themselves, come together in what one might call a congregation. It even has its own Sunday school.....What's interesting about this non-church is some of its churchlike aspects. There's a hymn book, talks that sound like homilies and, at one point, an actual collection plate passed through the aisles after one song.\nQuotes taken from ABC News: The Non-Church for Non Believers\nWhile there's nothing wrong with non-believers getting together in this fashion, I laugh at the number of times the article refers to \"free thought\". Seems humanists not only want to borrow Christian presuppostions, they now want to borrow our practices!\nBTW, hasn't it been from those with this background who have been the ones so outward spoken and accusatory about collections taken up at Christian services? ;)\nObama, Salvation, and Children of God\nSee: One News Now Article on Obama's Statements\nQUESTION: Do the morality and works of man (apart from Christ) merit heaven?\nA. Because of our sin nature and sinfulness, our works are not acceptable.\nIsaiah 64:6 \"All of us have become like one who is unclean, and all our righteous acts are like filthy rags; we all shrivel up like a leaf, and like the wind our sins sweep us away.\"\nB. The only acceptable offering before God is His Son whom he anointed, has taken pleasure in, and accepts.\nHebrews 10:5-10 \"Therefore, when Christ came into the world, he said: 'Sacrifice and offering you did not desire, but a body you prepared for me; with burnt offerings and sin offerings you were not pleased.' Then I said, 'Here I am\u2014it is written about me in the scroll\u2014I have come to do your will, O God.' \"First he said, \"Sacrifices and offerings, burnt offerings and sin offerings you did not desire, nor were you pleased with them\" (although the law required them to be made). 9Then he said, \"Here I am, I have come to do your will.\" He sets aside the first to establish the second. And by that will, we have been made holy through the sacrifice of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.\nC. Apart from Christ, no one meets the God's righteous standard.\nRom 3:22-23 \"...There is no difference, 23for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,\"\nD. Those who believe in Christ will be saved.\nActs 16:31 \"They replied, \"Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved\u2014you and your household.\"\nE. Those who reject Christ will not be saved.\n1 Cor 15:55-57 \"\"O death, where is thy victory? O death, where is thy sting? The sting of death is sin; and the ower of sin is the law; but thanks be to God, who giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.\"\nJn 14:6 \"Jesus answered, \"I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.\"\nConclusion: Only those who are in union with Jesus Christ through faith, who have been justified by his blood, and who are shielded by his covering will avoid God's displeasure and wrath. Hence, only true believers will be saved. Others, including Muslims, moralists, etc., who persist in their unbelief will not be saved nor find themselves in heaven.\nPrayer for Healing while Denying Medical Help\nIt is reported \"An 11-year-old girl died after her parents prayed for healing rather than seek medical help for a treatable form of diabetes...\" Such a death is tragic not only because of the loss but because it did not need to happen.\nWhile it is true that God can heal by prayer alone, and while it is true that even in passages where prayer and accompanying practices are performed the emphasis is placed on the prayer, that does not deny the fact that God works through means and calls his people to be wise making the most of all legitimate, ethical and rightful uses of means that he has provided through providence.\nFor example, in James 5:14, we read \"Is any one of you sick? He should call the elders of the church to pray over him and anoint him with oil in the name of the Lord. While the emphasis lies on prayer and all being done in the name of the Lord, oil was also to be applied. As Donal Burdick in the Expositor's Bible Commentary states\nPrayer is the more significant of the two ministries performed by the elders. 'Pray' is the main verb, while 'anoint' is a participle. Moreover, the overall emphasis of the paragraph is on prayer. So the anointing is a secondary action. There are a number of reasons for understanding this application of oil as medicinal rather than sacramental or ritualistic anointing. James could have used the verb 'chrio' if that had been what he had in mind. The distinction is still observed in modern Greek, with aleipho meaning 'to daub,' 'to smear,' and 'chrio' meaning 'to anoint.' Furthermore, it is a well documented fact that oil was one of the most common medicines of biblical times. See Isaiah 1:6 and Luke 10:34.\nTo illustrate this principle more clearly, so as to encourage parents not to allow another tragedy such as this to take place, consider the fact that Luke was \"medical doctor\" for a reason. Consider that while prayer alone could have been offered for the soldier whose ear was cut off by Peter, did not Jesus himself take action and place the ear back on for him? Were not the women who \"cared for\" Jesus himself noted for their actions? Consider that God could also have spread the gospel with prayer alone and without the use of the church but he has ordained the use of both. God could also have provided a wife for Isaac by prayer alone, but he accomplished this through the use of Abraham's chief servant (Gen 24). Paul could have relied on prayer alone, but he also saw the need to inform and instruct the Corinthians (2 Cor 13:7).\nIt will not be surprising to ses atheists and others jump on this article as if to point to (1) the irrationality of believers, and/or (2) the impotency of prayer; but what you have in this case is the tragic consequence as a result of individuals being misinformed. Those who seek to prove the \"irrationality\" of believers or the impotency of prayer by this example must note the problem lays not with biblical truth or practice in this case, but the misinformed understanding of it.\nEckhart Tolle Christianity (Understanding Eckhart Tolle - Comparison / Difference with Christianity)\nI believe it important that both believers and unbelievers understand the difference between the teaching of Eckhart Tolle and Christianity. Here's a brief post to introduce you to a few of the significant differences. (Note, I've just been exposed to Tolle, but it doesn't seem to take long to discern the differences)\nContext (the problem)Taken from here.:\nDespite Oprah and Eckhart's reduction of Christianity to but one \"way\" amongst many other equally legitimate ways to God, and their calling Christ a \"revolutionary\" who has been misunderstood by the Church, and who simply came to manifest \"Christ-consciousness\", a quick search through the internet reveals that many Christians are following Oprah in attempting to fuse together the teachings of Eckhart, and the doctrines of the historical Christian church.\nGreat website to gain quick summary of Eckhart's beliefs/teachings: Ripples on the Surface of Being\nKey Responses by Eckhart Tolle\nAC: Ultimately, would you say that real spiritual practice or real spiritual experience is meant to lead one to the letting go of the world, the transcendence of the world, the relinquishment of attachment to the world?\nET: Yes. Sometimes people ask, \"How do you get to that? It sounds wonderful, but how do you get there?\" In concrete terms, at its most basic, it simply means to say \"yes\" to this moment. That is the state of surrender-a total \"yes\" to what is. Not the inner \"no\" to what is. And the complete \"yes\" to what is, is the transcendence of the world. It's as simple as that-a total openness to whatever arises at this moment. The usual state of consciousness is to resist, to run away from it, to deny it, to not look at it.\nJM: I was also struck by your interpretation of the cross as a symbol of \"thy will be done\".\nET: It's a strange dualistic symbol. Basically, it's a torture instrument. To me, Jesus stands for humanity. So this man is nailed to the torture instrument, totally helpless, in deep suffering. At that point comes total surrender to what is. \"Not my will, but thy will be done.\" At that point, the symbolic significance of the cross is changed from being a torture instrument to a symbol of the divine. So what it points to is that the very thing that seems to stand in the way of realizing who you are. The very suffering that comes with being here in this physical realm---because eventually some form of suffering comes to everybody---can become an opening into that which we call the divine. If you're lucky, disaster comes before the physical form is lost and the psychological form dissolves. This sometimes happens through extreme suffering, when people lose everything, or they find out they don't have much more time to live. So they are faced with extreme disaster which cannot be explained away.\n(From \">here)\nThe possibility of such a transformation has been the central message of the great wisdom teachings of humankind. The messengers\u2014Buddha, Jesus, and others, not all of them known\u2014were humanity's early flowers. They were precursors, rare and precious beings. A widespread flowering was not yet possible at that time, and their message became largely misunderstood and often greatly distorted. It certainly did not transform human behavior, except in a small minority of people.\n1. Whereas in recent days, many have viewed Jesus as only a \"GOOD TEACHER\" rather than the \"Son of God and Savior of the world\"; Eckhart views Jesus (along with others such as Buddha) as one who only SET AN EXAMPLE for others in \"SURRENDERING\" as a result of suffering, BUT NOT ONE WHOSE SACRIFICE WAS NECESSARY FOR ATONEMENT! [i.e. Historic Christianity] In doing this, Jesus was only \"one among many\". (Note: In this view, Eckhart Tolle has done as much if not more than Jesus for us... since he not only supposedly sets the example for us in surrendering, but according to him...his teachings are not misunderstood and twisted like Jesus' example and teaching... so according to his view, Tolle, not Jesus is or becomes the de facto \"real\" or \"best\" Savior)\nIn other words, whereas before Jesus was a good \"teacher\" whose teachings (along with others) were instrumental in leading people to God, now in Eckhart's view Jesus (along with others) is one who has gone before in \"participating in the right experience\" (that of renouncing the world, ego, etc.) that leads people to experience reality (stillness, pure consciousness, self, transcendence of the world).\nPut another way, in Eckhart's view, when Christ said \"thy will be done, not my will\", Jesus was not simply expressing the continuous attitude of his heart even in light of the present circumstances, but he had arrived at the divine and accomplished what is needed by others (an awakening), so that what followed (the penal substitution and atonement) was essentially unnecessary [/CONTRARY to SCRIPTURE and ESSENTIALS of Historic Christianity].\nFinally, it should be noted that whereas Eckhart sees Jesus on the cross as \"representing\" humanity; he fails to see that Jesus set himself \"in the place of\" humanity (the elect). (Isaiah 53 \"...Surely he took up our infirmities and carried our sorrows, ..., ...he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon him, and by his wounds we are healed.\")\nSuch teaching fails to take into account passages such as:\nMatt 6:10 (Lord's prayer) \"...your kingdom come, your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.\"\nJohn 6:27 \"Do not work for food that spoils, but for food that endures to eternal life, which the Son of Man will give you. On him God the Father has placed his seal of approval.\"\nPhil 2:6 \"Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be grasped,\",\n... not to mention those dealing with substitutionary atonement, including:\nRomans 3:25 \"God presented him as a sacrifice of atonement, through faith in his blood...\"\nHebrews 10:10 \"And by that will, we have been made holy through the sacrifice of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.\"\n... also not to mention those dealing with God's decretal will in regard to the events of the cross\nActs 4:27-28 \"Indeed Herod and Pontius Pilate met together with the Gentiles and the people of Israel in this city to conspire against your holy servant Jesus, whom you anointed. They did what YOUR POWER AND WILL had decided beforehand should happen.\" (i.e. Jesus didn't just suffer the wrath of men but the fulfilled the plan and suffered the wrath of God for those he represented through federal relationship.)\n2. Eckhart falsely supposes that man can renounce the world and self on his own apart from any grace in Christ.\nSuch teaching suggests man can change his own nature, that the death of Christ was not necessary for man to die to sin, and that grace is not needed for man to renounce the world and himself.\nThis runs counter to:\nJeremiah 13:23 \"Can the Ethiopian change his skin or the leopard its spots? Neither can you do good who are accustomed to doing evil.\"\nJohn 17:19 \"For them I sanctify myself, that they too may be truly sanctified.\"\nRomans 8:7 \"the sinful mind is hostile to God. It does not submit to God's law, nor can it do so.\"\nRom 6:13 \"Do not offer the parts of your body to sin, as instruments of wickedness, but rather offer yourselves to God, as those who have been brought from death to life;...\"\n3. Those who seek to \"together the teachings of Eckhart, and the doctrines of the historical Christian church\" are fooling themselves. Not only do they attempt to join together doctrines that can't be joined (like oil and water) but they deny the critical teaching of Christianity found in the doctrine of the necessity of the substitutionary atonement of Jesus Christ... along with teachings dealing with sanctification that accompany the doctrines of justification.\n4. Eckhart is doing nothing different than others such as Joseph Smith or Muhammed when he seeks to supplant Scripture and the gospel of Christ by claiming the Scriptures have been misunderstood and that he knows better than the biblical writers.\nSee also a comparison of Eckhart Tolle and Christianity on the Subject of Death.\nEckhart Tolle - Christian Response\nUnbelievable! ...The extent man not founded upon Christ will go and follow in their quest and pursuit of self and attempts to explain away reality and sin. Here's Oprah's spiritual sage...\n1. He resurrects errors of the past which deny reality by seeking to replace it with forms.\n2. By reducing the past to forms (or photo albums) he not only denies the reality of the past but the extent of it's connectedness and relationship to the present. This error he also translates in regard to the future.\n3. He establishes a false premise that one can separate the reality of the present (\"now\") from reality itself, which he vests in onesself (though he inconsistently goes on to suggest that life is found in abandoning oneself)\n4. He has no grounds or basis for assuming reality is found in self (and apart from everything else, or only what one want's to allow)\n5. By denying the truth of God, he falsely asserts that the future is no longer problematic when one presupposes it's only about self (i.e., \"knowledge of self\" does not deny the \"reality of sin\")\n6. He denies the promise the future holds by simply asserting \"it just is\". (i.e., by denying relationship of oneself and the future, he not only cast the dishwater out (the problems), but the baby as well (the promise).\n7. He falsely asserts that it's up to the individual to \"let the world just happen\", AS IF man not only is in control of providence rather than God, but man positionally controls whether and the very factors of providence occuring. (i.e., man is sovereign; at the same time - close your eyes and all will be alright)\n8. He falsely asserts that what arises ins't that important - it's a form, it's short lived, it's a play of phenomenal existence. He states it's \"the universe playing with form, it's consciousness playing iwht form) (i.e., he denies purpose, signficance, importance, etc.)\n9. He speaks to \"felt needs\" of man today such as \"strain, effort, stress, fear, etc.\" and seeks to offer that which is \"simple, joy, alive, etc.\" However, his method of achieving the latter is by denying the significance and realities involved in bringing about the former. (For example, by closing one's eyes and breathing, will not do away with the realities of cancer and death, though one may call the symptoms and pains and results \"forms\".)\n10. His \"detached\" philosophy and forms of delivery in presentation alone are enough to drive any reasonable, thinking and engaged people away. It's amazing to what people will give themselves to when they deny the true God and the truth of reality.\nFor more, see here and here.

He is not identified with any religion, but uses teachings from Zen Buddhism, Sufism, Hinduism and the Bible.\"\nI was reminded in reading that while the trend of many today (including Oprah) is to suggest that by combining religions or \"taking the best from what each of the religions has to offer\" ...one is either subject to the subjectivism or relativism of deciding for themselves what to accept and what to reject (and therefore set themselves as the ultimate determiner/aribiter, and perhaps creator of truth) or as in the case of following Eckhart Tolle to submit themselves to the subjective beliefs of another who has chosen and rejected along the same principles and thus become the de facto determiner, arbiter, and creator (if not borrower) of truth.\nWhat's interesting is the infinite number of \"truths\" and \"creators/determiners/arbiters of truth\" that can and will not only result from trust and dependence on such foundational presuppositions, but infinite number of conflicts and oppositions to the truths held by others. The point being that when one assumes truth is relative (or can be found even among combinations of systems of belief which are self-exclusive or oppose one another), then the result is not one \"higher\" good that can and will be obtained by those who give themselves to such belief and practices, but to a numerous mirage of beliefs and possibilities that not only will lead to disunity and disfunction, but to confusion, irrationalism, and division.\nIn effect, those who espouse and practice pluralism, while seeking and claiming greater wisdom, ultimately are found to delve deeper into the wisdom of man, which not only cannot save but results in the things mentioned above. While seeking to become wise, they prove themselves to be foolish.\nAs shown in the article, speakers continue to come and offer something (perhaps a little different but in ways) in essense the same.... the suggestion that man controls (or can control) his own destinity and success. I love the quote \"Mr. Tolle suggests that by living in the moment and in touch with what he calls 'the totality,' good things MAY start happening to you.\" [CAPS, my emphasis] Seems the one thing these self-help geniuses can't get over is the curse itself. Seems no matter how much \"embracing the present\", \"turning off the ego\", \"turning off the mind's chatter\", \"meditating\" (which by way, it you can determine truth, why meditate?)... they just can't get over the fact that things don't always go they way they want, and it seems aging, difficulties, even death keeps staring them in the face. Funny that so many \"wise\" people would follow one whose best advice only promises that things \"may\" begin to go their way. (By comparison, Christianity recognizes One - Jesus Christ - in whom peace, strength, confidence and hope may be found even though trials, troubles, suffering, tribulation and even death will come.)\nThe only thing new with today's speakers, advocates and followers, is that they use words and phrases like \"globalism\", \"packing thousands of years of teaching\", etc., along with the fact they address issues more pressing upon modern minds (\"war\", \"conflict\", \"world at large\", etc.), and perhaps that they now see the\n\"worlds religions\" as a new source to look to in order to provide a measure of \"authenticity\" or \"believability\" or \"global\" or \"pluralistic\" perspective to their message, but in the end, it's no new message, just more of the same of that which is old dressed up in new clothes!\nIt's another opportunity and occurrence of a person getting rich by speaking to the felt needs of man and offering a solution that comes from man but in the end will prove powerless, though the very claims made include words such as \"power\", \"wisdom\", \"a New Earth\", potententially \"world changing\", etc.\nShould it surprise us that \"not much is being revealed about the author and speaker's own life, except that he's living with his girlfriend and failed to follow through with his educational pursuits, and yet the masses are following him as if he has all the answers?\nAs the writer of Ecclesiastes states \"There's nothing new under the sun.\" Seems many followers could learn from the writer of Ecclesiastes who shows that living simply in the moment (or for the \"now\", or \"present\") apart from God doesn't produce or result in the satisfaction, peace or lot that many believe it will.\n\"Remember your Creator in the days of your youth, before the days of trouble come and the years approach when you will say, 'I find no pleasure in them -\" (Eccl 12:1)\nIt's not that God has left us without the truth, or that God has dispersed or confused his truth; rather he has provided a consistent and continuous revelation of Himself by his Word, most clearly revealed in Jesus Christ himself, about whom the Scriptures testify and proclaim. Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you shall be saved... and this... not in the absence or always in the alleviation of suffering, war, etc., but in spite of it and even in it's midst as we wait for the return of him who will restore all things.\nIn essence in Tolle's writings (along with the statements of his followers), you have a gospel presented which denies the necessity of the substitutionary atonement of Jesus as revealed in Scripture. While Tolle and his followers may claim Jesus was an example or one who has gone before us in reaching a state of consciousness (of surrendering, of renouncing ego and the world, i.e., \"thy will be done\", etc.), they reject Jesus as Son of God and Savior sent from God. Rather than looking to the forgiveness based on Jesus' sacrifice and the justification that comes through the imputed righteousnes of Christ, they look to their own abilty, actions, and merit as enabling them to reach the goal. Hence it is salvation (even of a different sorts) by works, not by grace. Conversations with Tolle's followers reveal a quickness to talk about God as \"love\", but unwilling to talk about the \"justice\" of God. One in particular was willing to say Jesus was crucified according to the wrath \"of man', but refused to acknowledge the wrath \"of God\" was involved. In the end, Tolle and his followers present another gospel, which while some may claim fits with Scripture, does not. One the one hand they present a different gospel (which depends on what man does rather than on what God has done for us), and on another hand is no gospel for if salvation could have been accomplished through the law (or by man's efforts), there would have been no reason for Jesus to come and to die for us.\nFor more, see here and here.\nSee also a comparison of Eckhart Tolle and Christianity on subject of Death.\nSelf Denial: The Key to Happiness\n\u201cAnd he said to all, \"If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me.\u201d (Luke 9:23)\nOne of the tragedies of modern evangelicalism is the seductive worship of \u201cself-esteem\u201d, an idol that has been erected to draw church growth pundits to its disgraceful altars. The message of self-denial is not popular among today\u2019s professing believers, yet on this point Jesus was most adamant, claiming that whoever would refuse to do this \u201ccannot be my disciple\u201d (Luke 14:26-27).\nThe false religion of pop-psychology, however, tries to convince us that the key to happiness and contentment is to build up self. The \u201cself-esteem\u201d concept was invented by necromancer William James late last century, and was eventually advanced to the throne of Christ in many churches during the early 1970\u2019s. (See Self-Esteem: The New Reformation by Robert Schuller). Indeed, we have become \u201clovers of self\u201d (2 Timothy 3:2).\nHowever, a recent scientific study has confirmed the biblical view that self denial, as well as esteeming others better than oneself, is the actual key to happiness.\nMoney Buys Happiness When You Spend On Others, Study Shows\n\u201cResearchers at the University of British Columbia and the Harvard Business School have found that it's possible to buy happiness after all: when you spend money on others...Regardless of how much income each person made...those who spent money on others reported greater happiness, while those who spent more on themselves did not.\u201d\nWhile money is only one issue in this complex makeup, the study does support the idea that the key to contentment is to get our eyes off of ourselves and onto the plight of others. Even better, turn them to Christ.\nSouthern Baptist Leader on Media, Southern Baptists, and Global Warning\nDr. Frank Page, president of the Southern Baptist Convention, says the secular media has erroneously reported the intent of a document dealing with climate change that he and other prominent denominational leaders endorsed.\nAbove quote from \"SBC president endorses stewardship, not global warming\" found here.

Was it a move to return the airwaves to the people -- or political retribution for airing anti-Chavez programming?\nIssued In 1980 By The\nCouncil for Democratic and Secular Humanism\n(now the Council for Secular Humanism)\n...we deplore the efforts by fundamentalists (especially in the United States) to invade the science classrooms, requiring that creationist theory be taught to students and requiring that it be included in biology textbooks. This is a serious threat both to academic freedom and to the integrity of the educational process.\n...Is it a move to return to academic freedom and integrity of the educational process -- or philosophic and educational positioning for humanists' worldview and \"programming\"?\nWhat's clear is that humanists do not simply oppose creationism being taught (incl: oppression of viewpoints) simply because of fear or because of scientific interests, but because they themselves intentionally seek to CONTROL and OVERTHROW the views and positions of those who stand in opposition to them by \"covering up\", \"hiding\", and disallowing exposure that not only threatens their position, but that THEY THEMSELVES ARE FOUNDATIONALLY COMMITTED TO OVERTHROWING.\nChrist the Lord: The Road to Cana\nMs. Rice presents this miracle as she has the other biblical events on which her fiction is based: she decoratively embroiders the Gospels while fully respecting their message.\nThe above quote is from a New York Times article on Anne Rice's new novel entitled \"Christ the Lord: The Road to Cana.\"\nIt's the phrase \"... while fully respecting their message\" that I beg to differ for the following reasons:\n1. \"...she gives him a crush on one of his relatives, a 15-year-old girl.\"\nReason: While this is a novel, there is nothing in the gospels to suggest Jesus had a crush on one of his relatives, especially on a fifteen year old girl when he was 30 years old. The focus of Jesus' life from age 30 on was clearly on the kingdom and communicating that kingdom his disciples and through them to the world. To suggest Jesus as what we today would term a pedophile is more than literary licence.\n2. \"So 'The Road to Cana' perches on the brink of blasphemy. But it succeeds in treating Yeshua\u2019s humanity as an essential part of his divinity.\"\nReason: The treatment of Jesus' humanity as an essential \"part of his divinity\" is nothing but the herersy of eutychainism which was condemned in the fourth ecumenical counsel in Chalcedon in 451. It also has similarities to other heresies cuch as monothelitism, monophysitism and docetism.\n3. \"Since this book begins with the stoning to death of two young men said to be interested in each other (\u201cWhat, two young ones under the same blanket on a winter night?\u201d)\"\nReason: While perhaps a good literary twist, one must note the O.T. ritual of coming under the same blanket or having the cover of a blanket placed over another (i.e. Boaz and Ruth) served as a bond or pledge, not the suggestion of sexual activity, especially illegitimate sexual activity.\n4. \"The first half of this book lingers eagerly upon its characters\u2019 unfulfilled desires.\"\nReason: This tends to paint Jesus as one who was frustrated or perhaps one with unfulfilled lusts, whereas the Bible speaks both of Christ's sinlessness and desires for the fulfilling of God's perfect purpose and plan, wherein he experienced similar things as us, though remained without sin.\n5. \"In its opening scene, Yeshua\u2019s thoughts of Avigail, his beautiful \u201cyoung kinswoman,\u201d lead him straight to a cold bath in a Nazareth spring.\"\nReason: The gospels nowhere picture Jesus as a sexually frustrated man, or pedophile.\n6. \"At the novel\u2019s precise midpoint, Avigail throws herself at Yeshua with the steam heat of a Rice vampire, sobbing, \u201cI am your harlot.\u201d Yeshua fights back his desires in order to refuse her. \u201cYou\u2019re really the child of angels,\u201d she realizes, in a tone of disappointment.\"\nReason: The gospels and other N.T. books (i.e. Hebrews) present Christ as the Son of God and superior to angels, not the \"child of angels.)\n7. \u201cI moved slowly towards what was at last going to separate me from all around me,\u201d he says as he begins to feel the divinity within him.\"\nReason: Jesus' separation from all around him was not the result of his moving forward but the reason and motivation for it. In other words, Jesus was already divine and distinct, so that it was not what he did that caused him to be distinct and great, but it was because he was distinct and great he did what he did.\n8. \u201cWell, now I knew just what it meant to be the man who knew he was God.\u201d\nReason: Jesus knew what it meant to be God before he was 30 years old. We see this even early on in his life when he was in the temple which he referred to as \"my Father's house.\n9. \"The absence of wine at the wedding becomes calamitous, though the Bible describes it without alarm. 'It was a disaster of unlikely and dreadful proportions,' Ms. Rice maintains.\"\nReason: Culturally, running out of wine would have been socially significant and perhaps have even led to some shame on the part of the parents, but would have been noting on the level of \"a disaster of unlikely and dreadful proportions.\"\n10. \u201cI\u2019ve entered history for the whole of it. And I won\u2019t be stopped.\u201d\nReason: This taints the motives and attitudes of Christ, who while he knew God's purposes as revealed in Scripture would be fulfilled, his attitude was not one of arrogance, rather his success depended on his humility and dependence upon God.\nFor more, see article at Alliance of Confessing Evangelicals\nCan Naturalism Justify the Preconditions of Science?\nFrom Without a Doubt: Answering the 20 Toughest Faith Questions by Kenneth Richard Samples pp. 195-196.\nIf naturalism is to be accepted as an adequate worldview, then it must possess genuine explanatory power. But some difficult questions emerge to challenge the purported truth of a purely naturalistic worldview.\nHow can a world that is the product of blind, purposeless, random natural processes account for and justify the crucial conditions that make the scientific enterprise possible?\nAren\u2019t the order, regularity, and uniformity of nature out of place (unaccounted for and valueless coincidences) in a purely naturalistic world which could as easily have been a purely random and chaotic universe?\nWhat accounts for the existence of abstract, nonempirical entities such as numbers, propositions, the laws of logic, and inductive inferences in a world that is the product of a mindless accidental process?\nIf the sensory organs and cognitive faculties of human beings are the result of chance and accident, how can they be trusted to yield coherent data, much less objective \u201ctruth\u201d?\nSince naturalism implies a type of physical determinism (all things are the product of genetic, chemical, and environmental factors), then doesn\u2019t that by necessity rule out such things as uncoerced, deliberate thought?\nSince this determinism is incompatible with rational thought, free will, and moral decisions, wouldn\u2019t naturalism be self-defeating?\nChristian philosopher Greg L. Bahnsen has argued that far from justifying their underlying presuppositions, naturalists illegitimately rest their scientific operation on Christian theistic principles. The naturalist is borrowing Christian philosophical/epistemological capital. Naturalism appears unable to explain the assumptions that make modern science possible. It also seems at odds with the very practice of science. The discipline of science presupposes a biblical-like worldview. Physicist and popular science writer Paul Davies offers this observation:\n\"In the ensuing three hundred years the theological dimension of science faded. People take it for granted that the physical world is both ordered and intelligible. The underlying order in nature \u2013 the laws of physics \u2013 are simply accepted as given, as brute facts. Nobody asks where they came from; at least they do not do so in polite company. However, even the most atheistic scientist accepts as an act of faith that the universe is not absurd, that there is a rational basis to physical existence manifested as lawlike order in nature that is at least part comprehensible to us. So science can proceed only if the scientist adopts an essentially theological worldview.\"\nCould science have arisen if the dominant metaphysical views of the time were naturalistic and materialistic in nature? And would naturalism be able to sustain the scientific enterprise that Christian theism birthed? A rational person can\u2019t help but wonder.\nReason and the Battle of Creationism and Evolution\n\"Our students are given both sides...They need to know both sides, and they can draw their own conclusion.\"\nQuote from here. It's taken from Dr. Patricia Nason, who has a doctorate in curriculum and instruction from Texas A&M University and serves as the\nchairwoman of the science department at the Institute for Creation Research in Dallas.\nSeems REASON (or at least reasonableness) does exist in the debate over creationism and evolution. Note which side of the argument it's found on. How can one object to her statement, that is, unless they are biased both in the process and the outcome.\nModern Reformation: The New Atheism\nChristians who feel besieged by the atheist onslaught in recent years would do well to know their history.\nQuote from Skepticism, Agnosticism and Atheism: A Brief History of Unbelief\nby M. Z. Hemingway in Modern Reformation.\nThis article is only one of many in this months issue of Modern Reformation on \"The New Atheism\". For a list of all the articles, see HERE.\nHere's a description the magazine provides:\nIn this issue of Modern Reformation, we set out to give you the tools you need to understand and interact with the so-called \"New Atheism\" that is flexing its muscles in our post-Christian societies. First up, our resident journalist Mollie Z. Hemingway traces the contours of atheism through the history of philosophy and spirituality. Next, Lutheran theologian Adam Francisco brings us up to date by introducing us to the primary proponents of the New Atheism: Richard Dawkins, Sam Harris, Christopher Hitchens, and Daniel Dennett. Then trial lawyer and apologist Craig Parton discusses the intellectual arguments atheists use to prove their point; Scottish Presbyterian pastor and apologist David Robertson takes us through his recent response to Richard Dawkins and shows us how to counter the arguments that they use against Christianity; and our editor-in-chief Michael Horton finishes up the issue by showing how our own versions of Christianity can short-circuit our apologetics and evangelism.\nNew Books by Rev. Al Mohler\n1. Culture Shift: Engaging Current Issues with Timeless Truth\n2. He is Not Silent: Preaching in a Postmodern World\nWhile the World Tries to Cast Slurs of Irrelevance ...\n\"For the message of the cross is foolishness to those\nwho are perishing; but to us who are being saved it is\nthe power of God.\" 1 Corinthians 1:18\nThe whole world looked with contempt\u2014indignant at the\naudacity of a few humble Christians, thus affronting and\ndefying the \"public opinion\" of nations and ages; assailing\nthe religions of earth with the cross as their only sword;\nstriking down their idols with this as their only hammer;\nand with this, as their one lever, proposing to turn the\nworld upside down!\nFrom that day the cross became \"a power\" in the earth;\na power which went forth, like the light\u2014noiselessly yet\nirresistibly\u2014smiting down all religions alike, all shrines\nalike, all altars alike\u2014sparing no superstition nor philosophy.\nThis power remains\u2014in its mystery, its silence, its influence,\nit remains.

The\npreaching of the cross has not ceased to be powerful and\neffectual!\nThere are those who would persuade us that, in this modern\nage\u2014the cross is out of date and out of fashion, time-worn.\nBut this shakes us not.

The only problem is that it should have distinguished more than it did (or at least been more clear than it was).\nFor example, while statements such as the following were good:\n1. We recognize that we do not have any special revelation to guide us about whether global warming is occurring and, if it is occurring, whether people are causing it.\n2. We recognize that we do not have special training as scientists to allow us to assess the validity of climate science.\n3. We must care about environmental and climate issues because of our love for God\u2014\u201cthe Creator, Redeemer, Preserver and Ruler of the Universe ...\n4. We realize that we cannot support some environmental issues as we offer a distinctively Christian voice in these arenas. For instance, we realize that what some call population control leads to evils like abortion. We now call on these environmentalists to reject these evils and accept the sanctity of every human person, both born and unborn.\n5. Therefore, our motivation for facing failures to exercise proper stewardship is not primarily political, social or economic\u2014it is primarily biblical.\n6. We realize that the primary impetus for prudent action must come from the will of the people, families and those in the private sector\n7. To abandon these issues to the secular world is to shirk from our responsibility to be salt and light.\nAt the same time, statements such as the following perhaps opened themselves to misinterpretation or misapplication, if not going too far for the following reasons:\n1. \"Yet, even in the absence of perfect knowledge or unanimity, we have to make informed decisions about the future.\"\nReason: While mankind and particularly those involved in science and the state (along with individuals and those in the private sector) must make informed decisions, the church must be careful not only to avoid overstepping their bounds, but even to give the appearance of doing so. For example, news articles related to this declaration may tend to give the impression that the Southern Baptist Church has weighed in and has sided in full agreement with those who espouse \"green\" and \"global warming\", etc., and do so even to a degree that I don't believe their declaration actually makes... (Note FoxNews Headline: \"Southern Baptist Leaders Issue Surprising Call to Fight Climate Change.\") Another example of this would be in the statements \"...Poor nations and individuals have fewer resources available to cope with major challenges and threats. Therefore, \u201cwe should work to provide for the orphaned, the needy \u2026 [and] the helpless\u201d (BFM 2000) through proper stewardship.\" Such statements could be taken to mean the SBC has agreed that global warming, etc., is validated and therefore our government should bear the brunt and give large amounts of money to \"green\" causes, while there are sufficient statements in the declaration to suggest this is or may not be the SBC mindset at this point.\n2. \"We affirm that \u201cevery Christian should seek to bring industry, government and society as a whole under the sway of the principles of righteousness, truth and brotherly love\u201d\nReason: While this statement does not state the government should buy into arguments suggesting \"global warming, etc.\" is true and therefore the government without continuing to hear and weigh arguments in making judgments, should act in keeping with some environmenatist agendas; to the causual or undiscerning reader it could be taken not as an affirmation to call these entities to principles of righteousness, but as an affirmation for believers to call government to act concerning climate change (... in keeping with climate change agendas, etc.). It most certainly could be construed by some as thinking the \"church\" should call government to become more involved, while this is not the role of the church, particularly when the state seems to be addressing the issue and debate continues to play out.\n3. \"...Indeed, some of us have required considerable convincing before becoming persuaded that these are real problems that deserve our attention. But now we have seen and heard enough to be persuaded that these issues are among the current era\u2019s challenges that require a unified moral voice.\"\nReason: It's already clear in the scietific, governmental and public arena these are issues which present a challenge. The use of the words \"persuaded\", \"considerable convincing\", \"real problems\", can lead one to think the declaration is not suggesting it to be just a \"challenge that requires a unified moral voice\" but to be \"real\" problems, even ones that demand others be persuaded. It's not the role of the church to make scientific determination (as the declaration states in another part) but these statements can give the appearance the SBC is not simply evaluating the subjects of environment and climate change in regard to whether such issues are legitimate issues for the church to be concerned and involved in (according to it's theological and eccesiastical roles)but that the SBC has weighed in on the scientific question itself.\nThese things being said, it is best for the the church not to overstep and enter into the realm and business of the state (unless as some former Christians have stated the failure of the church to act and call the state to address issues of monumental significance and consequences involving things like the protection of life, etc. wherein the state has either refused or failed to address an issue or acted in the issue in ways not in agreement with the clear teaching of God's Word,etc. will have dire and significant or detrimental consequences, ...note others have worded this better than I have here).\nThis being said, let me affirm I continue to be grateful for my brothers and sisters in the SBC, their efforts in standing for Christ in society, and in honoring God in all of life.\nVatican and Wealth\nThe new deadly sins include ...being obscenely rich...\nQuote taken from FoxNews article entitled: Vatican Adds Seven New Deadly Sins Including Abortion, Contraception and Drug-Dealing\nWonder if the Vatican's position on wealth applies to Abrahan, King Solomon, or even to God himself?\nIt's not the blessing or position of wealth that's sinful, but other things associated with wealth that can be sinful such as an inordinate desire for wealth, unrighteous attitudes and behavior to attain, keep, or hoard wealth; unrighteous management or use of wealth, etc. However, simply to possess a great deal of wealth is not sinful in itself.\nThe Catholic Church divides sins into venial, or less serious, sins and mortal sins, which threaten the soul with eternal damnation unless absolved before death through confession and penitence.\nThe above quote is taken from the FoxNews Article entitled \"Vatican Adds Seven New Deadly Sins Including Abortion, Contraception and Drug-Dealing\".\nIt raises the question \"How Deadly is Sin?\"?\nThe Bible states \"the wages of sin is death\". It does suggest that there are only \"some\" sins which threaten the soul with damnation (unless forgiven) while others are \"less serious\" and do not affect the soul, it's relation with God, one's spiritual state and condition, or one's eternal destiny. While it's true there are some sins more grievious than others, some sins with greater consequences than others, and some sins with greater guilt and deserving of greater punishment than others; that does not negate the fact that all sin causes one to be a law breaker and to fall short of the glory and righteous requirements of God. A holy God can look upon and turn his head to \"any\" sin.\nCan you imagine one suggesting they have committed only venial sins and therefore believe it fine to reject Christ (because they don't need him) and think they will not only avoid eternal damnation but experience eternal life? Far be it from the truth, for the word says \"All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.\" The Scripture teaches that all sin (large or small) is an affront to God and violation of his law and results in falling short of God's righteous standard.\nThe article states \"it holds mortal sins to be grave violations of the Ten Commandments and the Beatitudes.\u201d What is the determination of \"grave\", who decides it, and upon what authority? Sin is any want, transgression or lack of conformity to the law of God. No matter how some seek to excuse it or reclassify it, it misses the mark and results in death, unless atoned for and forgiven through the atonement that comes by God's own Son, Jesus Christ.\nNote for example:\n\"Venial sin weakens charity; it manifests a disordered affection for created goods; ... However venial sin does not set us in direct opposition to the will and friendship of God; it does not break the covenant with God... (C.C.C. # 1863)\nWould \"coveting\" be considered a venial sin. It would be by the second phrase; however an inconsistency would be found when compared with the third phrase, for coveting does set us in direct oppostion to the will of God.\nAdditionally, while it's true that God's Word needs to be applied in all generations, and while it's true man continues to seek new ways to express and participate in sin, that is different from saying there is \"new sin\". The root nature and foundation of sin is the same in every generation as described by God's Word and addressed in the Ten Commandments. In other words, the Bible is sufficient and has defined sin, all sin (even though new forms or expressions of those sins arise), so that it is not necessary for the church to assume that role. While it's true the role of the church is to apply the truths of God's word to specific areas and practices in their day, that's different from suggesting there is \"new\" sin.\nInteresting isn't it... the article states \"...there is no definitive list of mortal sins...\" Seems something as significant as this, if one could define them they should be defined. The truth is they don't define them because they don't exist on one level, but on another level all sins are \"mortal\" in the sense they violate God's law and deserve punishment if not atoned for.\nAs far as the reference to \"environmental polluters\", one must be humored to think that abuse of creation must not have been a significant sin until the Catholic church declared it to be so. It's as though they think they must make the Bible relevant to the present age (by putting something on a \"list of deadly sins\" ... as if the Bible itself were not always relevant.\nDon't confuse whether or not I'm grateful for the Catholic church taking a stand against sinful practices in today's world, for I am; I only wish they would do so based on the right authority and characterize it as it really is.\nCaution by Calvin\nWe indeed know that when anything becomes customary, almost all become hardened and flatter themselves in their vice; for immorality is then counted almost as the law, and what is sanctioned by public consent seems lawful.\nJohn Calvin (Commentary on Zechariah, ch 1, verse 4)\nThe Sermon Builder from the Shepherd's Fellowship\nWhat an excellent and thorough-going resource!\nRelative Law?\nIraq's new draft constitution, which has yet to be approved by parliament, contains an article under which family law would be replaced with a new system determined according to the religion or sect of those involved.\nQuote taken from here.

While polls mean much to the world, and can be useful to some extent for man, one must not forget what matters most is the ongoing and unstoppable work of God who through the church is continuing to grow the body of Christ even in the midst of a changing and foundationless world.\nEven as we know the certainty of the things of God, as the tides here on earth seem to come and go, we can be certain that the trends as we see them now will not continue forever, and who knows what the backlash or response will be ... either toward the things it has moved from, or to things altogether new, but this much we can be thankful for...\nThe present trends can be healthy and helpful to the true church in these ways: in identifying those who in the past may have been disguised under the cloak of religion though inwardly they held to unbelief, and in better distinguishing the true church from others as unbelievers experience and exercise greater freedom in expressing their own beliefs and practices.\nIllustration of the present life in regard to the number of (and attitude of many) unbelievers\nWhile it is the practice of certain unbelievers today to count and take comfort and pride in the number of unbelievers in the world, I suspect lack of proclamation of the realities of heaven and hell and all that is associated with them has much to do with it.\nI know at this point, many might suggest that I might promote hell fire and brimstone preaching as if simply by \"scaring\" people they might enter the kingdom of heaven; but such is not the case. HOWEVER, at the same time, if other situations in life lend light to the truth, it's clear that many are prone not only to not take the truth seriously, but to even peddle and adopt that which is untruth in situations where they are either not confronted with the truth or are allowed to live as though the truth will not catch up to them. For this reason, it's important that the church not neglect preaching and teaching concerning the truths of heaven and hell and the differences between believers and unbelievers when it comes to death, the resurrection and the final judgment. This, along with teaching the truth that there will be degrees of punishment of the wicked serves to curb brazeness rebellion, though it will still be found among some who seek to cast off all truth and sanity.\nTo this end, I remind readers of truths pointed out in Thomas Vincent's The Shorter Catechism Explained from Scripture:\nDifference between unbelievers and all the wicked world from that of believers at the last day\ni. The condition of unbelievers, and all the wicked world, will be miserable beyond expression at the last day of judgment:\n1. Their bodies shall arise, and come forth like prisoners out of the grave, and whatsoever strength and immortality shall be put upon them, will be only to make them capable of eternal torments and misery.\n2.

It appears now that \"An Australian team claims the little people were not a new human species, but modern humans with a form of dwarfism caused by poor nutrition.\"\nProfessor Benny Shanon: Israelites Hallucinating at Sinai (Extent Some Will Go to Argue Against the Truth)\nIn Moses was tripping at Mount Sinai, Professor Benny Shanon, professor of cognitive psychology at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, suggests (or asserts) when the people of Israel perceived the voices at Mount Sinai, it was the result of a hallucinatory experience due to partaking of two plants in their religious worship. Shanon's theory suggests \"The religious ceremonies of the Israelites included the use of psychotropic materials that can found in the Negev and Sinai.\" What's interesting is he goes on to state:\n\"I have no direct proof of this interpretation,\" and such proof cannot be expected, he says. However, \"it seems logical that something was altered in people's consciousness.\nNote, in Exodus, there is nothing in the immediate or broader context that suggests the Israelites partook of hallucinatory objects. Not only that, but:\n1. The event is recorded as historical,\n2. The people are said to have been sanctified for two days (pointing to their purity and consecration),\n3. The sound was exceeding loud... so that ALL the people that were in the camp trembled (not just some... i.e., some who were hallucinating)\n4. The assertion is that the children of Israel saw (or perceived) that God talked with them \"from heaven\", not through their own imaginations.\n5. The account is referred to by others as both a historical and revelatory event.\n6. The event is in perfect keeping with the rest of the unfolding of biblical revelation and redemption.\nThe point is this...rather than performing proper exegesis, one must come with their own presuppositions ...that this \"cannot\" mean what it seeks to say ... in order both to connive a theory that the Israelites were partaking of hallinatory plants (when one admits there is no evidence of that, nor can or should one suggest it to be proved).\nJust as interesting, is that atheists delight in things of this nature as seen here.\nCollege Campus and The God Delusion\nRichard Dawkins is promoting his university tours to draw attention to his book The God Delusion. Hopefully, Christians on these campuses will see and take advantage of this opportunity to talk about the faith and lead fellow students and faculty to Christ.\nTo this end, I hope pastors will equip their students and that students themselves will study both to know and discuss the differences between what Dawkins presents and the foundation and hope found in Christ.\nChristians from Arizona State, Berkeley, Stanford, University of Wisconsin, Columbia and NYU, University of Texas (Austin), make the most of this opportunity! I've heard about both the movement among young people in politics today as well as the attention being given to matters of the faith today... perhaps this can serve as motivation for students to get together for discussions prior to the presentation and then rally in evangelizing the campuses leading up to and following the presentation.\nSuch presentations should not alarm believers. The Scripture tells us false teachers will come. Presentations such as this ought to mobilize believers as they provide great opportunity for the elect to be revealed.\nHitchens question\nChristopher Hitchens, author of \"God is not Great\", asks this question: \"What moral statement can Christians make that atheists can't?\" Since most of his attacks on Christianity revolve around moral judgments of the Christian God and His followers, it seems to be a cornerstone of his atheistic faith.\nThe answer really, is quite easy, if not simple. For if we are to answer the question directly, then the answer is \"None\". There are no moral statements that Christians can make that atheists cannot. But before the non-believers break out the champagne and declare themselves the winners with Hitchens as the conquerer-in-chief, let's take it a step or two further. Because if the question is taken to mean \"What moral statement can Christians make that atheists can't, and provide a logical, reasoned basis for making those moral statements?\" then the answer is \"All of them.\"\nNow to be sure, there are a bunch of theories that attempt to explain morality. Some of them, from the noncognitivist side, deny that moral statements are indicative at all, i.e. that they have ontological meaning, and that they are either true or false. Moral statements are reduced to emotion or moral commands (if you love it, do it!).\nOn the congnitivist side, the subjectivists say that moral statements are really just statements about the one who is making the moral statement, i.e. the subject. That can extend into societies, where it may be a sociological statement to say that \"our culture dislikes rape\". The problem here is that this is not a normative statement.\nThe objectivists agree that moral statements are true or false statements of fact. This group can be further divided into ethical naturalists and ethical non-naturalists. Their disagreement arises around whether moral properties can be reduced to and identified with non-moral properties. By its nature, ethical naturalism is a reductionist theory which attempts to define or reduce ethical terms to physical natural properties, that are biological, sociological, psychological or even physical in nature. In my estimation, this is where Hitchens has to reside. He makes absolute moral statements about God, so he cannot be non-cognitivist, and neither can he be subjectivist.\nSo as a natural ethicist, his moral basis has to reside inside one of these frameworks that describe \"right\" from \"wrong\": 1. What is approved by most people, 2. what most people desire, 3. what is approved by an impartial observer, 4. what does the most good for most people, 5. what is best for human survival, 6. what is in the maximum interest of all people etc.\nThe noteworthy observation about this framework is that it is not morally irreducible, it is reducible to to the properties mentioned above. Science can then assign values to these properties, and it can be measured.\nBut how does ethical naturalism stand up to its own standards? Can we make statements about ethical naturalism that hold true, and are non-circular? Can we say that ethical naturalism is morally right, without first accepting ethical naturalism as the theory by which it should be judged as right or wrong? Of course not, it is absurd and viciously circular. That is because the ethical naturalist confuses \"is\" with \"ought\". Every moral statement carries with it a normative \"how we ought to behave to be morally right\". If an act is right, then one ought to do it. But here is the problem, physical properties, like the ones the ethical naturalist attempts to reduce moral acts to, carry no normativeness. They are simply natural properties that exist, regardless of how we ought to behave.\nSecondly, the reduction of morality to the framework described above fails, because the reduction simply does not work. The majority may be wrong, such a thing as an impartial observer does not exist, and the most good for the most people depends on who is making the moral statement to begin with, i.e. who decides what is the most good for the most people.\nFurthermore, ethical naturalism faces the problem of a personal internal infinite regress, since naturalism is wholly dependent on the senses to interact with the environment in which we live. But how would you then know that what you are doing is right or wrong? How do you \"sense\" it? And how do you know that that sensation of knowing that your act is right or wrong, is right or wrong? Do you \"sense\" that? How about that sensation? how do you know that your sensing of your sensing that your act is right or wrong, is right or wrong? And so it will continue, to the point of an infinite regress, and one may never know that what you are doing is right or wrong, when one starts the regress by reducing morality to physical properties and measurable sensations.\nSo while Hitchens may ask the question, and even receive an initial answer that satisfies him and his followers, the deeper investigation does not work for him, at all. He is firmly entrenched in fatal relativism and cannot escape infinite reduction.\nChristians believe that humans are created in the image of God, and therefore have God's moral will to guide them. Even if atheists deny this, they cannot escape it. Even if they use this built-in morality to assault God and Christianity, they cannot do so without using that morality. I once heard it said that it is like a child slapping his father in the face while the father was carrying him across an alligator-infested swamp. An apt analogy, I think.\nMorality is based not only on the will of God, but on His very nature. And since we all share a part of His nature, we are moral. Thanks be to God.\nOprah's Pluralism\nI am amazed that so many actually believe that this woman is a Christian. However, this video should settle the issue of Oprah's religion once and for all.\nOprah is a nice person (as well as an excellent self-promoter), but she is clearly NOT a Christian.\nBTW: See Chuck Norris's response to Oprah's latest \"New Earth\" course.\nOprah: A Course in Miracles (Repudiation)\nAs a former New Age follower and devoted student of A Course in Miracles, I eventually discovered that the Course in Miracles was\u2014in reality\u2014the truth of the Bible turned upside down.\nNot having a true understanding of the Bible at the time of my involvement, I was led to believe that A Course in Miracles was \u201ca gift from God\u201d to help everyone understand the \u201creal\u201d meaning of the Bible and to help bring peace to the world. Little did I know that the New Age \u201cChrist\u201d and the New Age teachings of A Course in Miracles were everything the real Jesus Christ warned us to watch out for. In Matthew 24 Jesus warned about false teachers, false teachings and the false \u201cChrists\u201d who would pretend to be He.\nQuotes from this website which tells of and repudiates a new program on Oprah Winfrey's XM Satelite Radio Program this coming year.\nScience Alone - A Faulty Hope\nSynthetic biology has the potential to dramatically change fields from agriculture to medicine to zoology.

Reminds me of Paul's Words in Romans 9 \"It is not as though God's word had failed. For not all who are descended from Israel are Israel. Nor because they are his descendants are they all Abraham's children. On the contrary, \"It is through Isaac that your offspring will be reckoned.\" In other words, it is not the natural children who are God's children, but it is the children of the promise who are regarded as Abraham's offspring.\"\nThe truth is that on a physical level, it will become more and more difficult to discern \"Who is a true Jew?\" and \"Who is not?\". However, on a spiritual level, the true children of Abraham are identified as those who possess the same faith of Abraham, who trusted not in his own ability to keep the law, but who trusted in the promise of God, who could raise the dead, and give life to those who in themselves were powerless and helpless (to bring about the things God had promised). We read in Romans 4 \"Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness\" and again \"Therefore, the promise comes by faith, so that it may be by grace and may be guaranteed to all Abraham's offspring\u2014not only to those who are of the law but also to those who are of the faith of Abraham. He is the father of us all.\"\nWhile physical ethnicity is of some use, what matters most is whether one is a true child of Abraham, trusting not in one's physical lineage for salvation, but in the provision of God that leads to salvation, namely Jesus Christ himself, who HIMSELF is the fulfillment of the imagery and statement referred to by Abraham when he said \"God himself will provide the lamb for the burnt offering...\" (Gen 22) To be a true Israelite, or true child of God, one must look to Christ who is the fulfillment of the covenant made with Abraham. As is written \"Consider Abraham: \"He believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness.\" Understand, then, that those who believe are children of Abraham. The Scripture foresaw that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, and announced the gospel in advance to Abraham: \"All nations will be blessed through you.\" So those who have faith are blessed along with Abraham, the man of faith.\"\n1What then shall we say that Abraham, our forefather, discovered in this matter? 2If, in fact, Abraham was justified by works, he had something to boast about\u2014but not before God. 3What does the Scripture say? \"Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness.\"\n4Now when a man works, his wages are not credited to him as a gift, but as an obligation. 5However, to the man who does not work but trusts God who justifies the wicked, his faith is credited as righteousness. 6David says the same thing when he speaks of the blessedness of the man to whom God credits righteousness apart from works:\n7\"Blessed are they\n8Blessed is the man\nwhose sin the Lord will never count against him.\"\n9Is this blessedness only for the circumcised, or also for the uncircumcised? We have been saying that Abraham's faith was credited to him as righteousness. 10Under what circumstances was it credited? Was it after he was circumcised, or before? It was not after, but before! 11And he received the sign of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness that he had by faith while he was still uncircumcised. So then, he is the father of all who believe but have not been circumcised, in order that righteousness might be credited to them. 12And he is also the father of the circumcised who not only are circumcised but who also walk in the footsteps of the faith that our father Abraham had before he was circumcised.\n13It was not through law that Abraham and his offspring received the promise that he would be heir of the world, but through the righteousness that comes by faith. 14For if those who live by law are heirs, faith has no value and the promise is worthless, 15because law brings wrath. And where there is no law there is no transgression.\n16Therefore, the promise comes by faith, so that it may be by grace and may be guaranteed to all Abraham's offspring\u2014not only to those who are of the law but also to those who are of the faith of Abraham. He is the father of us all. 17As it is written: \"I have made you a father of many nations.\"[c] He is our father in the sight of God, in whom he believed\u2014the God who gives life to the dead and calls things that are not as though they were.\n18Against all hope, Abraham in hope believed and so became the father of many nations, just as it had been said to him, \"So shall your offspring be.\"[d] 19Without weakening in his faith, he faced the fact that his body was as good as dead\u2014since he was about a hundred years old\u2014and that Sarah's womb was also dead. 20Yet he did not waver through unbelief regarding the promise of God, but was strengthened in his faith and gave glory to God, 21being fully persuaded that God had power to do what he had promised. 22This is why \"it was credited to him as righteousness.\" 23The words \"it was credited to him\" were written not for him alone, 24but also for us, to whom God will credit righteousness\u2014for us who believe in him who raised Jesus our Lord from the dead. 25He was delivered over to death for our sins and was raised to life for our justification.\n1I speak the truth in Christ\u2014I am not lying, my conscience confirms it in the Holy Spirit\u2014 2I have great sorrow and unceasing anguish in my heart. 3For I could wish that I myself were cursed and cut off from Christ for the sake of my brothers, those of my own race, 4the people of Israel. Theirs is the adoption as sons; theirs the divine glory, the covenants, the receiving of the law, the temple worship and the promises. 5Theirs are the patriarchs, and from them is traced the human ancestry of Christ, who is God over all, forever praised! Amen.\n6It is not as though God's word had failed. For not all who are descended from Israel are Israel. 7Nor because they are his descendants are they all Abraham's children. On the contrary, \"It is through Isaac that your offspring will be reckoned.\" 8In other words, it is not the natural children who are God's children, but it is the children of the promise who are regarded as Abraham's offspring. 9For this was how the promise was stated: \"At the appointed time I will return, and Sarah will have a son.\"\n10Not only that, but Rebekah's children had one and the same father, our father Isaac. 11Yet, before the twins were born or had done anything good or bad\u2014in order that God's purpose in election might stand: 12not by works but by him who calls\u2014she was told, \"The older will serve the younger.\" 13Just as it is written: \"Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated.\"\n14What then shall we say? Is God unjust? Not at all! 15For he says to Moses,\n\"I will have mercy on whom I have mercy,\nand I will have compassion on whom I have compassion.\" 16It does not, therefore, depend on man's desire or effort, but on God's mercy. 17For the Scripture says to Pharaoh: \"I raised you up for this very purpose, that I might display my power in you and that my name might be proclaimed in all the earth.\" 18Therefore God has mercy on whom he wants to have mercy, and he hardens whom he wants to harden.\n19One of you will say to me: \"Then why does God still blame us? For who resists his will?\" 20But who are you, O man, to talk back to God? \"Shall what is formed say to him who formed it, 'Why did you make me like this?' \" 21Does not the potter have the right to make out of the same lump of clay some pottery for noble purposes and some for common use?\n22What if God, choosing to show his wrath and make his power known, bore with great patience the objects of his wrath\u2014prepared for destruction? 23What if he did this to make the riches of his glory known to the objects of his mercy, whom he prepared in advance for glory\u2014 24even us, whom he also called, not only from the Jews but also from the Gentiles? 25As he says in Hosea:\n\"I will call them 'my people' who are not my people;\nand I will call her 'my loved one' who is not my loved one,\" 26and,\n\"It will happen that in the very place where it was said to them,\n'You are not my people,'\nthey will be called 'sons of the living God.' \"\n27Isaiah cries out concerning Israel:\n\"Though the number of the Israelites be like the sand by the sea,\n28For the Lord will carry out\nhis sentence on earth with speed and finality.\"\n29It is just as Isaiah said previously:\n\"Unless the Lord Almighty\nwe would have been like Gomorrah.\"\n30What then shall we say? That the Gentiles, who did not pursue righteousness, have obtained it, a righteousness that is by faith; 31but Israel, who pursued a law of righteousness, has not attained it. 32Why not? Because they pursued it not by faith but as if it were by works. They stumbled over the \"stumbling stone.\" 33As it is written:\n\"See, I lay in Zion a stone that causes men to stumble\nand the one who trusts in him will never be put to shame.\"\nEckhart Tolle Christianity (Understanding Eckhart ...\nProblems for Unbelieving Worldviews - Greg Bahnsen...\nPluralistic Facade (Eckhart Tolle, A New Earth, Op...\nSouthern Baptist Leader on Media, Southern Baptist...\nTime will Tell: Denying Truth does not Change Tru...\nHow it happened: The catastrophic flood that coole...\nCourts take on Suit concerning teacher accused of ...\nInsight into the Debate between Creationism and Ev...\nCan Naturalism Justify the Preconditions of Scienc...\nReason and the Battle of Creationism and Evolution...\nWhile the World Tries to Cast Slurs of Irrelevance...\nSouthern Baptist Declaration on Environment and Cl...\nChristian Truth which Stands Over and Against Repo...\nIllustration of the present life in regard to the ...\nProfessor Benny Shanon: Israelites Hallucinating ...",

        "raw_content": "Middle East and Africa witness rise in rig counts\nRig counts provide an indication of the health of the energy sector focused on E&P. (Image source: Rossographer/Wikimedia Commons)Middle East and Africa are the only two regions that have seen a rise in exploration and production (E&P) activity last month, oil and gas services company Baker Hughes has announced\nThe company said in its report for June 2015 that the number of rigs deployed in the Middle East increased by two to 401, while Africa added three rigs to 103. All other regions of the world have posted declines, it added.\nNews agency UPI has reported that rig counts provide an indication of the health of the energy sector focused on exploration and production, a sector struggling in an era of lower crude oil prices.\nEnergy companies during latter half of 2014 and first half of 2015 announced cuts in spending targeting E&P. In Latin America, Baker Hughes found rig deployments were down about four per cent from May to 314, while Asia-Pacific rig numbers dropped about one per cent to 215.\nIn the USA, where shale oil production pushed the global market heavily toward the supply side, rig deployments fell more than three per cent to 861. For onshore work, activity in the exploration and production sector dropped about 2.8 per cent, while offshore deployments were down 12.5 per cent.\nMost of the gains in total USA oil production came from inland shale basins. In a short-term market report, the US Energy Information Administration (EIA) said total crude oil production in the country declined 50,000 bpd in May and the trend is likely to continue through early 2016.\nEIA administrator Adam Sieminski said that, despite the decline, the expected 2015 average of 9.5mn bpd is the highest production level in 45 years.\n\u201cThe forecast decline in USA\u2019s monthly oil production through early 2016 is the result of low oil prices, which pushed oil companies to reduce their investment in drilling that resulted in the lowest number of rigs drilling for oil in nearly five years,\u201d he noted.\nThe Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) has already said that it was keeping its production levels static in an effort to shore up its market share during the shale era.",

        "raw_content": "Sparks: Passage of amended closing fund a victory for transparency\nFollowing the Senate passage of House Bill 1953 on Tuesday, Sen. John Sparks said his successful amendment of the proposal marked a victory for transparency in state government. The bill establishes the Oklahoma Quick-Action Closing Fund, an economic development tool that would enable the Governor to use public funds to provide companies with a financial incentive to relocate to Oklahoma or expand existing facilities.\nSparks, a co-author of HB 1953, amended the measure on April 27 to require that companies not be involved in independent expenditures intended for political purposes for a specified period before and after the acceptance of an award from the fund. The amended proposal was approved by a vote of 42-3.\n\u201cThough the Closing Fund will be an effective economic development tool, I believed it was important we guarantee transparency in the process,\u201d said Sparks, D-Norman. \u201cThe public is rightly suspicious of programs which enable large sums of their money to change hands without transparency. Although the amendment was somewhat weakened, I believe it will be effective in reducing any suspicion of impropriety.\u201d\nThe amendment would not hinder employees from making political contributions, and is limited to corporate entities or partnerships. The prohibition would apply for a twelve-month period preceding and a five-year period following the receipt of an award from the Quick Action Closing Fund. The length of the prohibition ensures it covers each gubernatorial election cycle.\nSparks noted Governor Rick Perry of Texas last year came under fire when it was discovered more than $16 million had been awarded from the Texas Emerging Technology Fund to companies with officers or investors who in turn made significant contributions to Perry\u2019s reelection fund. This discovery resulted in a prominent and distracting investigation, casting widespread public doubt on the fairness and legitimacy of the technology fund.\n\u201cThe success of similar economic development tools makes it important that we keep pace,\u201d Sparks said. \u201cHowever, controversies in other states have clearly illustrated we can craft a better, more legitimate plan. I believe we\u2019ve done so today.\u201d",

How can it destroy the systems of oppression that we are all subjected to on a daily basis? Taking our own understandings of gender/ sexuality/ desire as a point of departure, in this workshop we will think about how our own personal narratives can be told in poetry as a mode of protest and solidarity, forming communities upon\u2014but also beyond\u2014our experiences of oppression.\nIn the first hour, we will explore these issues by reading the poetry of Amy King, Stephen Mills, Eileen Myles, Valarie Wetlaufer and others. In the second hour, we will generate one poem through an experimental writing exercise that focuses on blending the personal and the political.\nWe will not write a \u201cpersona\u201d poem in this workshop. I want you to be yourself in your poem. You don\u2019t have to be anyone but yourself. Your story is completely worthy of a poem!\nSandra Simonds grew up in Los Angeles, California and earned a B.A. in Psychology and Creative Writing at U.C.L.A and an M.F.A. from the University of Montana, where she received a poetry fellowship. In 2010, Simonds received a PhD in Literature with an emphasis in Creative Writing from Florida State University. She is the author of four full-length collections of poetry: The Glass Box (Saturnalia Books, 2015), The Sonnets (Bloof Books, 2014), Mother was a Tragic Girl (Cleveland State University Poetry Center, 2012) and Warsaw Bikini (Bloof Books, 2009) which was a finalist for numerous prizes including the National Poetry Series. She is also the author of several chapbooks including Used White Wife (Grey Book Press, 2009) and The Humble Travelogues of Mr. Ian Worthington, Written from Land & Sea (Cy Gist, 2006). Simonds\u2019 poems have been published in many journals such as Poetry, American Poetry Review, The Believer, the Colorado Review, Fence, the Columbia Poetry Review, Barrow Street, Volt, the New Orleans Review and Lana Turner. Her Creative Nonfiction has been published in Post Roadand other literary journals. She lives in Tallahassee, Florida and is Assistant Professor of English at Thomas University in beautiful, rural Southern Georgia.\nReading Queer promotes queer literary culture in South Florida through an annual week-long literary festival, creative writing workshops led by nationally and locally recognized queer writers, a literary salon series and a literary archive. We are partially funded with a Miami Foundation-National Gay & Lesbian Task Force GLBT Community Grant and a Knight Arts Challenge Grant. The Knight Arts Challenge Grant is a Miami-based initiative to draw the best and most innovative ideas out of local organizations and individuals seeking to transform the community through the arts.",

        "title": "one.year.trip: A Final Day in Europe",
        "raw_content": "Well, the day has come. It's my final full day in Europe. Sure I'll still be in Germany for a few hours tomorrow \u2013 but it will be confined to a major airport or two, and in a giant airport, countries cease to exist. To the casual observer, anyway. Sure the cans of bear meat may set off your, \u201cI'm somewhere else,\u201d sensors \u2013 but aside from that.\nSo first there was breakfast, and then there was a long email written about The Beatles, and then I was finally able to begin my day. There were only a few places left that I needed to see in order to feel as if I had conquered Berlin (not unlike the French \u2013 in one way... in another way, completely unlike them.)\nI've since moved from my window seat, to a more comfortable couch, which also has a plug socket near it. A silly boy thought the book he left on the couch, while he moved to a table to eat dinner, would have his place. I don't know what type of crazy thinking that is. That could have just got his book stolen \u2013 left behind books are often seen as gifts dropped by fellow travellers. I've left some, I've picked some up others left. But no, this boy came back to reclaim it, once he saw his ploy had failed. His girlfriend was not amused \u2013 as girlfriends rarely are. But, they wanted a real table to eat their burgers, not a comfy couch, and as such \u2013 their loss in my gain. They have a plug there too, so I don't know why they're acting so grumpy.\nThe bar has lowered their music, so I can rock some Dealership, and that helps me focus. So too does the fact that the bar just shut down their wifi. On one hand, I can't post what I write, but on the other, I can write it \u2013 and the gChats have gone away. Sure it looks like I just cut and ran on them, but that's not the case.\nSo off to the subway to buy a delightful new ABC day pass. But no, the machine wouldn't take my twenty. Woosh! A subway goes by. Back to the hostel I go to get two tens. Back to the subway. Oh no \u2013 ten thirty \u2013 the free tour is meeting, and a such the ticket machine is clogged with tourists who can't understand that they just need to push the same button the person in front of them pushed, to get what they want. Woosh! Another train goes by. Woosh! Another train goes by \u2013 these things are every seven minutes. That's how terrible it is \u2013 one minute until the next train. Good, just got my ticket. Need to validate it though, clogged. That's the train coming in. People may have been pushed, it's hard to say \u2013 all I know is I had a validated ticket, and was able to jump on the train before it tore away.\nDown the Seven line I went, all the way to the Olympic Stadium station.\nThis \u2013 was a station. No less than eight tracks met up here, and though they were mostly closed off now, I had to wonder what type of use they normally get, or once may have received. From the station I headed across the street, and over to the Olympic stadium. You may have seen pictures of it, but I tell you \u2013 it's hard to prepare. Hitler and his Nazi's certainly did know how to make an impact with their buildings.\nIn front of the stadium stood two large concrete towers, the all black Olympic rings suspended below them. On each tower was a bull horn. It was hard to reconcile the fact that I was standing In front of a great stadium, not some terrifying guard tower.\nIn front of the tower I set up my tripod, and configured my camera to take a number of shots in a row. Jumping may have been involved, but I like to think that I was, instead, flying. Yes, I must have been flying. That's why all the adolescents in their tour bus were staring at me, and snapping pictures. Understandable.\nAs the bus unloaded, I felt my time at the Olympic park was at an end. Back on the train, a quick change over, and off to the city of Potsdam.\nWhy Potsdam? Why not? It's a completely different city, accessible with a Berlin metro pass. That's enough reason for me.\nArriving there, I grabbed a map from the bus tour guide booth. These maps are fantastic, because they already have all the main attractions pointed out for you. And the less you have to think, the more you can explore.\nFor such a small town, it was pretty big. Much bigger than I would have liked, to be honest. This would be no quick stop. Off I went through a garden, past a skate park, and beyond a war memorial / cemetery. Off I went to a large park with a hut in the middle that the map pointed out \u2013 getting there I wasn't sure what the importance was? So I took a picture. Maybe it will turn out to be important, and if so, I want proof that I was there.\nAnd then off to the park \u2013 which is the predominant section of Potsdam. It's twice the size of the town itself. It's a huge park. So what's there? A castle \u2013 another castle, a Chinese tea house, and then a final castle on the way out. Ohh \u2013 there's a windmill in there somewhere too.\nLook, I'm sure it's lovely. I mean it must be. But \u2013 it's just that it's not offering me anything all that great, and it's so spread out. Walking from the entrance, to the back, to the entrance of the park took nearly an hour. And for nothing all that special. It's a park.\nWhat did pay off was the Christmas market here. Of course there was one here. And confined to one long street, it was a pleasure to stroll along, forgetting for a moment the threatening rain. There was even a carnival here \u2013 not to the size and scale of the Sandlot-esque fair that existed in Berlin, but a good sized one, none the less.\nWith all of these things taken in (and some confusion as to why there's a Brandenburger Tor here too) there was just one thing left that I wanted to see \u2013 a small pond in the middle of town. Why did I want to see it? Because the map pointed it out. So out of my way I walked, and when I got there... it was drained. Great. Well, at least I got to walk along in the bottom of it. That's something.\nAt the post office I wrote some postcards (using the free ones I'd picked up along the way) bought some stamps \u2013 which I'm not sure if they were enough, although they did read that they were for postcards, so... and then hopped on the bus to travel one stop back to the train station.\nFrom the train station I made two detours. One was at one of the central stations \u2013 here I discovered that showers cost seven euro. Who would pay seven euro for a shower? I'm paying seven euro for my hostel, and they give me showers, beds, internet (although not this second), and free breakfast. Seven euro for a shower? Seriously.\nAnd then it as to the gift shop to spend my final few euro \u2013 no good to me later. I still have that ten dollar key deposit too. That'll be useless \u2013 ten euro at five in the morning in Berlin, what's that going to get me? Actually \u2013 it got me much needed deodorant back in Krakow \u2013 so maybe it will pay off here too.\nAnd that was that. Back to the hostel to type up some blogs, and get ready to move on.\nIt's right now eight o'clock, and I'm going to predict the future, though it's not yet come to pass:\nafter packing up here, I'll go to the durum doner place, eat a disapointing last meal (although I can't imagine when I'll eat these again, so there will be something special abot that), and then I'll come back \u2013 pack up \u2013 and maybe watch some Spider-man before heading off to bed, Alarm set to wake me up way too early. Way, way too early.\nRelated Posts : berlin, europe, germany, potsdam, rtw09\nLabels: berlin, europe, germany, potsdam, rtw09\nI always wondered what the point of validating your U/S bahn tickets was. I bought an all day unlimited ride ticket in Munich that had the time and location stamped on it, yet it sill had to be validated in the little box.

        "raw_content": "College Football Playoff: So You\u2019re Sayin\u2019 There\u2019s a Chance?\nPhoto courtesy of Rich Barnes/US PRESSWIRE/http://www.usatoday.com/\nIf you weren\u2019t paying attention, you missed out on a great weekend of college football. Last weekend, the entire landscape of the sport massively changed as eleven ranked teams lost. All of the sudden, Ohio State\u2019s lone loss to Virginia Tech doesn\u2019t look quite as terrible as it once did. In no way are the Buckeyes now guaranteed a spot in the inaugural College Football Playoff. But now, they legitimately have an outside chance of getting there that didn\u2019t exist prior to last weekend.\nFor starters, Ohio State\u2019s schedule is a favorable one for winning the rest of their games in the regular season. The one big threat to their success is Michigan State; the one team that, from the beginning, I\u2019ve said would be a problem for the Buckeyes.\nRight now, Michigan State is the class of the Big Ten (yes, I know that doesn\u2019t seem to mean a lot anymore\u2026but stay with me) and they will by far be Ohio State\u2019s toughest opponent. The defense of the Spartans makes me very nervous because the name of their game is containment. They are more than capable of putting the heat on J.T. Barrett.\nSo far, Barrett\u2019s hardest challenge came against Virginia Tech, but even the mistakes he made in that game seem to have faded away as the season has progressed. If Barrett keeps progressing the way he has been\u2026look out!\nAs we\u2019ve talked about at length on The Buckeye Hangover, the secondary is Ohio State\u2019s biggest weak spot against the Spartans\u2026right now.\nIf the two teams played today, Michigan State probably comes away with the win due to Ohio State\u2019s horrible pass defense. That said, the Buckeye secondary has improved from where they were at the beginning of the season and they still have three weeks to refine their game against lesser talent. Look at where J.T. Barrett was three weeks ago. Yeah, three weeks can do a lot for a player or a unit\u2019s confidence. I don\u2019t think it will be any different with the Buckeye secondary. (Am I drinking the Kool-Aid a little bit? Probably\u2026but I digress.) If this unit can find a way to put it all together over the next three weeks\u2026look out!\nWhen these two teams finally meet, this will be a physical, hard-hitting contest and I think that Ohio State will come away with the upset! But does that victory alone guarantee them a playoff spot? Not at all. They need the perfect storm to keep on rolling.\nIn order to have a shot at making the playoffs, Ohio State needs more weekends like last weekend. They need considerable victories on their end that are accompanied by losses from highly ranked teams (mostly teams in the SEC).\nThe top teams in college football represent a whirlwind of huge games over the coming weeks. Don\u2019t believe me? Let\u2019s take a look at the teams ahead of Ohio State right now and what their schedules look like going forward.\n#1 \u2013 Florida State \u2013 Okay, so we start off with a team that really doesn\u2019t make my point. They face Notre Dame, but I really don\u2019t see that being much of a contest. Florida State is the team to beat\u2026period.\n#2 \u2013 Auburn \u2013 They take on Mississippi State on the road this week. They also have Georgia and Alabama left on their schedule as well\u2026oh yeah, they play them both on the road\u2026good luck with that. Any of those three games could spell disaster for the Tigers.\n#3 \u2013 Mississippi State \u2013 Speaking of the Bulldogs, they host Auburn this week, but they also travel to Ole Miss to close out their season. Oh yeah, they also travel to Alabama on November 15. Their season is far from over and far from easy.\n#3 \u2013 Ole Miss \u2013 Katy Perry\u2019s team travels to Texas A&M this week. I\u2019m not worried about this game for them. However, on October 25 when they travel to LSU\u2026that could be rough. They also host Auburn the week after that on November 1. Good luck getting through that mini-gauntlet unscathed.\n#5 \u2013 Baylor \u2013 What about Baylor you say? Well, they travel to Norman to face the Sooners on November 8. That could definitely be a tricky game for them. They also face Oklahoma State on November 22, so they have a couple of big tests as well.\n#6 \u2013 Notre Dame \u2013 I\u2019m sorry, but to me, this might be the most overrated team on a list that includes TCU. As it stands today, the only ranked opponent they face the rest of the year is Florida State, and they\u2019re probably going to lose that game. Did I mention that the only other decent team they\u2019ve played this year is Stanford? (Come to think of it\u2026they\u2019re kind of like Ohio State\u2026just hanging on for dear life and hoping for an upset.)\n#7 \u2013 Alabama \u2013 The Crimson Tide still has Texas A&M, LSU, Mississippi State, and Auburn left on their schedule. Nobody will be as surprised as I will be if they win all those games.\n#8 \u2013 Michigan State \u2013 The Spartans basically have one high profile game left on their schedule \u2013 November 8th when they host Ohio State. Aside from that game, they should easily win every other game on their schedule.\n#9 \u2013 TCU \u2013 The Horned Frogs face Baylor this week on the road. They don\u2019t stand a chance\u2026enough said.\n#10 \u2013 Arizona \u2013 The Wildcats still have UCLA and Utah left on their schedule, both on the road. This doesn\u2019t exactly make the rest of their season a walk in the park\u2026and we all know that good old Rich Rodriguez will choke at some point.\n#11 \u2013 Oklahoma \u2013 The Sooners still have to host Baylor and Oklahoma State before their season comes to a close. Again, this won\u2019t be a cakewalk by any stretch.\n#12 \u2013 Oregon \u2013 The Ducks face UCLA this week in Pasadena. They also have Stanford and Oregon State left on their schedule. Those matchups always prove to be tricky for the Ducks.\nI say all that to make this point: most of the teams ahead of Ohio State still have to play each other, so the landscape of college football is bound to change even more! Unlike in years past, it really seems like the National Title is up for grabs to whoever wants it most. While Ohio State may just have an outside chance at competing for the title, I still like their chances in what is shaping up to be one of the most exciting college football seasons in recent memory.\nIn College Football, Football, NCAA, New Posts, Ohio State Buckeyes, Sports, This Week In Sports, The Buckeye Hangover Tags Our Sports Report Twitter, Our Sports Report New Website, Our Sports Report, Our Sports Report Facebook, Our Sports Report Podcast, Sports, New Posts, Curt Ashcraft, Matt Shock, College Football, Football, NCAA Football, Ohio State Football Players, Ohio State Football, Ohio State Football Playoffs, Ohio State Buckeyes, Ohio State Buckeye Football, JT Barrett, JT Barrett Ohio State Football, Ohio State Secondary, Virginia Tech, Virginia Tech Football, Michigan State Spartans, Michigan State Football, Florida State Seminoles, Auburn Tigers, Mississippi State Bulldogs, Ole Miss Runnin' Rebels, Baylor Bears, Notre Dame Fighting Irish, Alabama Football, Alabama Crimson Tide, TCU, Texas Christian University, Texas Christian University Horned Frogs, Arizona Wildcats, Oklahoma Sooners, Oklahoma Football, Oregon Ducks\n\u2190 Johansen Gets Paid, Now it's Time to Play Through the Good & Bad, Tyutin Still Stands \u2192",

        "title": "It's a Winter Wonderland - Ice Skating at the Grand Palais",
        "raw_content": "It's a Winter Wonderland - Ice Skating at the Grand Palais\nFrom an outdoor rink surrounded by mountains in Saas Fee, Switzerland to an indoor rink in a glitzy shopping mall in the tropical city of Surabaya, Indonesia, I've skated in some fairly unique settings. But I can honestly say that none of the other locations matched the Grand Palais in Paris. The only drawback was that I had to keep reminding myself to look down at the ice rather than up at the magnificent glass barrel vaulted roof. It's an impressive structure!\nArriving shortly after the doors opened at 10:00 yesterday morning, Sara and I whizzed past all of the metal barricades set up in anticipation of the 200,000 visitors that will flock to the Grand Palais during the holidays. In no time at all, we had picked up the tickets that I had purchased online, passed the security check point and were trying to decide if I should get size 38 or 39 skates. If you're like Sara and travel with your own pair of skates, it's helpful to know that there aren't any lockers to stow your shoes. Fortunately, the man behind the counter agreed to put them with mine but this option probably won't be possible when there are more people. There's a cloakroom, located to the left of the rink, where it's possible to check coats and large bags, for 2 euros per article. Additionally, there are a couple of vending machines that sell gloves, which are required, and socks.\nAs we glided on to the largest ice skating rink in France, I thought about how much our adult-aged children will enjoy sharing this experience with their friends while they're visiting from the USA. Even though New York and Boston have ice skating rinks, I'm fairly sure that they don't have a skate-up champagne bar that also serves hot chocolate and coffee. According to the weather forecast, it's supposed to snow inside (that's right - inside!) the Grand Palais once every hour. The meteorologists were wrong yesterday, but that's probably because it was opening day. When everything is working as it should, it's going to be magical.\nWith a huge disco ball, lots of lights and a stage, ice skating at night in the Grand Palais will also be an amazing experience.\nThe ice skating rink will be at the Grand Palais through January 6, 2013. Please click here to consult the official website for more information about the opening hours and to buy skip-the-line tickets. The 12 euro entrance fee includes the skate rental. The price is the same if you bring your own skates.\nTime for me to go pick up a copy of Le Parisien from the new stand because a photographer took quite a few photos of Sara and me while we were sipping champagne at the skate-up bar yesterday. When one of them asked to interview us in French, I have to admit that I was a bad mother who left Sara to fend for herself. Much to her relief, they didn't use her interview in the clip, but they did show a fleeting glimpse of her gazing at the rink with a champagne flute in her hand. Please click here if you would like to see the video and here to see the additional photos that I posted on facebook.\nSara being interviewed.\nLabels: Grand Palais ice skating\nHow I love ice-skating! I'm really jealous!! There are icerinks here in Switzerland, of course, but I usually see them only at hockey games...\nI had this dream for many years: to go ice-skating in New York at the Rockefeller Center. When I finally got to do it 5 years ago, I was a bit disappointed about the size of the icerink and the Christmas tree. This building in Paris is truly beautiful, though.\nSara and I talked about your family as we skated around the rink, Heidi. Your hockey players must feel very comfortable on the ice. Skating at the Rockefeller Center has long been a dream of mine too - but after reading your comment about the size of the tree and the ice rink, I'm really happy that I had the opportunity to skate inside the Grand Palais. Why haven't we ever gone ice skating together?! That's what we should do while Stephane and Paul go skiing.\nJon Hulatt December 14, 2012 at 10:57 AM\nLooking forward to going next week. Looks really impressive and hope the snow is working by then. Shame they don't give a discount for taking your own ice skates though.\nHere's some info about their opening hours next week: On December 17, the ice rink will close at 14h00\nThe Grand Palais des Glaces will be closed on December 19 and 20.\nIt's also helpful to buy your ticket in advance so that you don't have to wait in line.\nHave fun! I look forward to seeing your photos.\nKiki December 14, 2012 at 11:31 AM\nMK; honestly, you just made me regret that I cancelled my FB account shortly after having opened it - I just would have loved to like some of your photos - I actually got quite lost on following only the photos you uploaded.... It makes me tired just READING all the lovely things you do - while I can't even get myself to write my Christmas cards (some 150 plus personal letters to quite a number...)!\nThis is absolutely TOP WONDERFUL - thank you so much for sharing your exciting and full Parisian life. You must have lived through more exitement in your short time here than others live in a life time living in Paris... :)\nConsider yourself hugged and kissed - and you've got a lovely daughter!\nWriting Christmas cards? That's exactly what I should be doing instead of going ice skating! I stopped sending cards years ago when we lived in the tropics because they always ended up getting lost in the mail. For some reason, I've never been able to get myself back on track. I'm sure that your friends and family appreciate that you take the time to include personal letters. That makes them so much more meaningful.\nWow, the video really shows how big it is! As I put on my blog, I'm not really one for skating, but that looks like a special experience\nFor people who don't like to skate, there's a sleigh on runners. Sara and I had a good laugh watching the photographers as they were pushed around the rink!\nAfter Fifty December 14, 2012 at 4:28 PM\nI love this MK, I first saw the pictures on the Mairie de Paris page and I absolutely loved it.\nI saw your photos on FB and I'd definitely need one of those kiddie carts to help me stay upright...haven't skated in ages!\nOh and the champagne...what can I say? These people really know how to live life!\nThere is so much to do in Paris every day no matter the weather!\nI'm in the wrong place, if it weren't for my family being here..\nPS, your daughter is lovely!\nWhen my son asked if there would be a skate up bar, I immediately said no because I was thinking with my American brain - accidents, lawsuits, etc., etc! I should have known that the French wouldn't let the chance of a few broken bones stand in between them and their champagne.\nChampagne and ice skating and light! So jealous. :)\nThe MIT rink doesn't have a champagne bar?! ;)\nAlas, no. And neither did the skating rink in our backyard growing up! :)\nHow terrific! It looks so very special. And champagne to boot, could hardly get better. There are so few people there too, that must be a special treat. I bet it will be crazy full when you return. If I go to Cincy this Christmas, I'll have to skate in Fountain Square again, it's so much fun even if I'm not that great a skater.\nI'm sure that your niece and nephew are hoping that you'll be in Cincy! Skating with Uncle Joseph must be one of the highlights of their holiday.\nI have never been ice skating.. this looks wonderful. But sadly \"the man who can do no wrong\" could never learn to skate now. So I can't participate.\nYes I laughed at the idea of a skate up champagne bar. Only the French! The British Health and safety facists would have a field day with a combination of ice and alcohol!\nOnly the French is right! There's no way that there would be champagne at a skating rink in the USA. Guns, maybe. Alcohol, definitely not!\nAs Sylvia said below, they have push chairs at the rink, Denise! You could get someone to push \"the man who can do no wrong\" and you around on the ice while you're snuggled together under the blanket.\nHaving watched the video...goodness Sara even moves like you! It is uncanny.\nIt's hard for me to know - but other people have said that we have some of the same mannerisms so I guess it's true.\nYour daughter is gorgeous.\nDenise, they have push chairs on gliders. Bring along the man who can do no wrong and give him the ride of his life!!!\nSylvia, we should join forces and push Denise and \"the man who can do no wrong\" around on the ice - that way they can keep each other company in the sleigh/push chair contraption.\nnycgirl December 16, 2012 at 11:10 PM\nShe is very pretty and she looks like a poised interviewee.\nThat is a spectacular building, and I love the sound of s skate-up bar. :)\nMy daughter wants to go and I was worried it would be so crowded but it doesn't look it at all in your photos.\nHaving read this, we might just have to go...she can skate....and I'll be looking for that champagne bar! :)\nJust be sure to check the official website before you go because they're closed a couple of days next week. I also saw a notice on Facebook yesterday that people should go during the week instead of on the weekend because it was overcrowded yesterday.\nHave fun. It's a great mother-daughter experience to share!",

        "raw_content": "HomeArticlesWhat the Media Not Telling Us about Yemen\nWhat the Media Not Telling Us about Yemen\nMay 15, 2014 Articles, Editorials\nAli Abdallah Saleh meet with Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld at the Pentagon, June 2004. (Helene C. Stikkel/Wikimedia Commons)\n\u201cIn Yemen today, the US embassy is closed to the public. Officials telling CNN there is credible information of a threat against Western interests there,\u201d a CNN news anchor read the news bulletin on May 08.\nThis is CNN\u2019s Yemen. It is a Yemen that seems to exist for one single purpose, and nothing else: maintain Western, and by extension, US interests in that part of the world. When these interests are threatened, only then does Yemen matter.\nYemen of \u2018Western Interests\u2019\nEvery reference in that specifically-tailored discourse serves a purpose. It is as if al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP) exists to justify US military intervention and unending drone war. Last April, 63 Yemenis were reportedly killed in US drone strikes allegedly targeting al-Qaeda. No credible verification of that claim is available, and none of the victims have been identified. \u201cSignature\u201d drone strikes don\u2019t require identification, we are told. It could take months, if not years, before rights groups shed light on the April killings, which are a continuation of a protracted drone war.\nThe Western narrative of Yemen is unmistakable. It is driven by interests and little else. It is ultimately about control of strategic areas. Yemen\u2019s massive border with Saudi Arabia, and access to major waterways \u2013 the Red Sea, Gulf of Eden and the Arabian Sea \u2013 and its close proximity to Africa and Somalia in particular, all point to unrivalled significance of Yemen to the US and other Western powers. In this narrative, Yemen is about oil and security. It is about the kind of \u2018stability\u2019 that guarantees that the status quo concerned with Western interests remain intact.\nEven the very geography of Yemen is somehow defined based on interests. On May 07, when militants reportedly bombed an oil export pipeline halting the crude flow that travels between the central Maarib Province to the Red Sea, Yemen\u2019s geography precipitously shrunk in media consciousness to be a map that merely borders and follows the oil pipelines. Those who live, fight, starve and die beyond the confines of the ill-defined Western interests often go unreported. Their share of the Yemen map is rarely highlighted.\nIn fact, little was known about Yemen in the West before October 2000, when US naval vessel USS Cole was damaged in a suicide attack, killing 17 US military men. The attack was later blamed on al-Qaeda, paving the way for the opportune narrative which continues to define US involvement in Yemen until this day.\nThe US \u2018war on terror\u2019 had in fact reached Yemen even before the war in Iraq was unleashed a few years later. Thousands of people were killed, tens of thousands were displaced. The people of that poor, divided, corruption-laden country were punished so severely for crimes they didn\u2019t commit.\nThe reason that the \u2018war in Yemen\u2019 has never morphed into a \u2018war on Yemen\u2019 is because the ruling class of that country found a way to co-exist with the ever prevalent US interests, including their violent dimensions. Just as the US began its military push against Yemen, then President Ali Abdullah Saleh introduced a referendum to modify the constitution in order to boost his (and his family\u2019s) political power and extend his mandate.\nMany Yemenis lost their lives protesting Saleh\u2019s move. Washington, however, didn\u2019t seem to mind. Saleh knew the price expected of him to ensure the barter. In November 2001, he made a highly choreographed visit to then US President Bush in Washington, declaring that Yemen had officially joined the US \u2018war on terror.\u2019 The war in Yemen carried on for years, without mass protests in London and New York demanding an end to that war, as was the case in Iraq.\nDespite the military hardware, the military strikes, the drone attacks and the piled bodies of rarely identified victims, the war simply didn\u2019t exist, although the facts prove otherwise.\nRevolutionary Yemen\nBut intersecting with that Yemen, there is a Yemen that is poor, a Yemen that is rebellious and proud, and a Yemen that is marred in a civil war and seemingly endless division.\nA fair historian would tell you that Yemen\u2019s revolution started long before Tunisia and Egypt, and all the rest. That is a whole different Yemen, where unemployed youth, men and women have exhibited a remarkable level of tenacity and determination, mass protesting for equality, reforms, freedom and democracy.\nThe popular consciousness of Yemen is simply astounding. How could a people of a country, so poor and so divided, command a level of mass mobilization that is hardly paralleled anywhere else?\nThis is the dissident and spirited Yemen. Its youth have turned political organization into a form of art. When they amassed their popular, non-violent forces in major Yemeni cities in January 2011, there seemed to be no force, however lethal, capable of removing them from the squares. Indeed, Saleh wholeheartedly tried, but the more he killed, the more committed to their non-violent resistance the Yemenis became, and the quicker their numbers multiplied.\nPoor Yemen\nThis politically conscious Yemen overlaps with another one, a Yemen of shocking statistics. It is a country of 25 million, where 54 percent live below the poverty line, and where unemployment among youth exceeds 60 percent (general unemployment stands at 40 percent according to recent government reports cited by Al Monitor). Millions of Yemenis are malnourished. Malnutrition levels are the second highest in the world. 4.5 million are food insecure. Nearly half of the country\u2019s children suffer from stunted growth.\nRevolutionary Yemen feeds on and is inspired by poor, oppressed Yemen, which is exploited for political reasons by those who, on January 2010, designated themselves Friends of Yemen.\nIt is another club that serves as a political platform meant to balance out the US \u2018war on terror\u2019 campaign, but pretends to operate independently from it. Yemen\u2019s \u2018friends\u2019 pledged billions, little of which has been delivered, and only a portion of what is delivered is spent in ways that are transparent or helpful. There is little evidence that Yemen\u2019s donors are making much difference in reversing the vicious cycle of entrenched poverty, rising unemployment and continued deterioration of the economy.\nFriends of Yemen behave as if the US war is not a major component of Yemen\u2019s crisis. Yemen\u2019s problems and failures are discussed based on other variables \u2013 corruption, poor governance and such. Millions of people have been displaced by this war. They are hungry, desperate and frightened by the complete lack of security. Isn\u2019t it strange that somehow the US war is not an item on their agenda?\nYemen of Division\nThe official Yemeni discourse is even more curious. Formed in November 2011, after Saleh handed powers to his deputy, now President Abdrabbuh Mansour Hadi, the Yemeni government continues to speak of dialogue and reforms. The National Dialogue Conference concluded in Jan 2014 after ten months of intense discussions. In February, a governmental committee approved the recommendation of turning Yemen into a federation of six regions. This is meant to be the first practical step towards a lasting political transition, but it likely to inspire further divides where some southern parties are vying for complete secession from the north, and are now organizing to defeat the government initiative.\nYemen is a country of deep political divisions with a bloody history of separation and unity, and most perplexing political alliances, which are in constant breakup and formation.\nOne and Only Yemen\nBut why are we too hesitant to tell the Yemeni story as it is, with all of its complexities and details? Are we intimidated by the sheer intricacy of the story? Or is it because we remember Yemen whenever it is convenient to do so?\nWestern media knows Yemen whenever al-Qaeda threatens western interests, or when angry tribesmen \u2013 frustrated by the joint US-central government violence and years of neglect \u2013 blow up an oil pipeline.\nThroughout much of 2011, Arab media covered Yemen around the clock promoting an indiscriminate \u2018Arab Spring\u2019 narrative, with little regard to the distinctiveness of the Yemeni story. When the spring didn\u2019t deliver what it promised, Yemen was disowned and forgotten, as it has always been.\nThe United Nations occasionally remembers Yemen in one of its intermittent reports, highlighting the poverty, malnutrition, and unemployment with atrocious graphs and grim numbers.\nThe odd thing is that there is only one Yemen and one Yemeni story: that of war, western intervention, corruption, division, unemployment, terror, poverty and revolution. They are all aspects of the same story, and will continue to form one singular rationale of why Yemen is in this awful crisis.\nUntil we realize this, Yemen shall continue to be divided into mini-stories, and numerous narratives that hardly overlap in our news broadcasts, despite the fact that they always really do.\n\u2013 Ramzy Baroud is the Managing Editor of Middle East Eye.

        "raw_content": "Interviste (mb-tt-10 s)\nVENEZUELA - Interview with Ernesto Villegas Poljak\n\u201cI\u2019m a journalist, not a propagandist\u201d\nErnesto Villegas Poljak is a well-known journalist on Venezolana de Televisi\u00f3n, a government television channel. He has been criticized by both pro- and anti-government forces, and even he admits he has not been able to escape the polarization his country is living through, though in his work he tries to maintain a balanced and considered position.\nLatinamerica Press correspondent Paolo Moiola interviewed Villegas Poljak about Venezuela\u2019s political situation and his journalist experiences.\nTo be a journalist in Venezuela today has serious implications. What has your experience been?\nBeing a journalist today is very difficult. Even though the media maintain an appearance of independence, balance and objectivity, it\u2019s only lip service. With some exceptions, newspapers, radio and television seems as if they are working for the political parties. The reporting of news has been pushed into second place, behind political concerns.\nThis has undermined the role of journalism both within the media and in society. I compare our situation \u2014 that of Venezuelan journalists \u2014 to that of fire fighters who are suddenly told by their chief to no longer put out every fire. What\u2019s more, in some cases they should throw gasoline on the flames. Or that they shouldn\u2019t take care of all the injured, but rather let some of them die. These are glaring contradictions for a journalist or a fire fighter, except for those who are fanatically identified with the political positions of their bosses.\nIn my own case, I\u2019ve stopped writing for Venezuelan newspapers, because I can see that their idea of news, their criteria for selecting stories, writing headlines and where they place stories is no longer governed by accepted norms but is overly influenced by the current political polarization (LP, July 1, 2002). Under these circumstances I\u2019ve lost my enthusiasm for writing and even for the profession of journalism. On the show I host on Venezolana de Televisi\u00f3n, the government channel, I try to maintain a balanced and thoughtful position, inviting the widest range of guests, but still I can\u2019t completely escape the polarization.\nDoes this mean you\u2019ve lost your objectivity?\nI can see that I have been losing some of my traditional balance, and this worries me from a professional point of view. As a citizen, however, I feel better. The opposition leadership, which is dominated by international forces, economic groups and media moguls, has adopted practices that are arbitrary, totalitarian and violent. They are so openly against not only Ch\u00e1vez but also the people and even Venezuelan sovereignty, that it is hard to remain neutral. Anyway, I reflect every day about my role as a journalist and try, regardless of the differences, to maintain respect among Venezuelans. This is something I don\u2019t see among colleagues, whose responsibilities are similar to mine. With notable exceptions, the hosts of radio and TV programs have turned into political agitators, and some of them are out-and-out buffoons.\nHow\u2019s your relationship with the government?\nIt hasn\u2019t been easy dealing with the more radical Ch\u00e1vez supporters who don\u2019t understand why I ask questions or make comments that are different or even contrary to the official government line. I know that I have many detractors in some government circles and within pro-government parties who would like to see me replaced with a propagandist instead of a journalist, and they are just waiting for the day I leave the show.\nI\u2019ve thought many times that if the polarization gets any worse and the possibility of journalism is completely closed off, no one would give me a job, neither government media nor private media. I\u2019d be considered a \u201ctraitor\u201d by all sides. In fact, I\u2019ve taken steps to get into another profession, to become a lawyer, since I can foresee my eventual divorce from the profession I\u2019ve practiced for 12 years.\nAre you optimistic or pessimistic about Venezuela\u2019s political situation?\nI\u2019m both at the same time. Pessimistic because I know how deeply wounded the country is, both economically and emotionally, and how difficult it will be to get human beings who inhabit the same territory to live according to basic rules of coexistence. A kind of low- or medium-intensity conflict could drag on at a huge economic, social and emotional price.\nI\u2019m also optimistic because, in spite of everything, there is and will continue to be a high level of political consciousness among the people. This is the result of something previously unheard of: grassroots awareness about the roots of social inequality and other structural problems in Venezuelan society. Venezuela will have much to offer in the struggles of people that will take place throughout the region, to win back their rights and to build a more just world.",

Still, be it because they\u2019re lucky or inspired, some criminals manage to get away with their crimes. This definitely isn\u2019t the case with the thieves on our list, people who are / were so stupid that they somehow managed to incriminate themselves beyond a reasonable doubt.\nWhile even the best-planned crimes can sometimes go horribly wrong for one reason or another, we can all agree that the following people deserve to get caught just because of their stupidity if nothing else. Let us then find out what are the ten dumbest thieves the world has ever seen.\n10Trigger Discipline\nIn 2004, Carlos Henrique Auad of Petropolist from Brazil broke into a bar to steal a television set by climbing down from the roof. Encouraged by his earlier success, he tried breaking into the same bar a few days later using the same methods. This time, however, Carlos was carrying a gun. This aspect of the story is important because when climbing down from the roof, he accidentally slipped and fell, causing the gun to go off. In the process, he quite literally shot himself in the foot, leaving a trail of blood behind him as he made his escape, leading the police officers who soon came to investigate straight to his front door.",

        "title": "Philadelphia Reflections: Economic Proposals For 2015-16, A Trial Balloon",
        "raw_content": "Economic Proposals For 2015-16, A Trial Balloon\nGlenn Hubbard, former Chairman of George W. Bush's Council of Economic Advisers, has written his proposals for 2015-2016 as an Op-Ed piece in the New York Times, in January, 2015. The choice of newspaper probably has some significance, since the Chairman of a President's Council of Economic advisers sometimes does, and sometimes does not, formulate the economics views of his party and his President. It's possible he seeks to influence the role of his party's Congressional leaders, or possibly represents the views of the two former Bush Presidents, or even a variant of them meant to influence Jeb Bush in his run for the 2017 Presidency. Time will probably tell, as the last two years of the Obama second term could be a time of compromise, or a time of bitter dissention. Hubbard makes ten or eleven points, usually as single-sentence assertions without associated arguments.\nBroadened Budget Neutrality. The first point is that Congress has long been working within the boundaries of tax neutrality for any changes in the tax revenue derived from individual social or economic classes, a restriction Hubbard feels is unnecessary. The example he gives is corporate income taxation, which is very likely the area he had in mind. Perhaps, I think he is suggesting, corporate taxes could usefully be lowered without considering the personal benefits to the upper class of corporation stockholders. In effect, Labor Unions are seen to be acting out the attitudes of the Molly Maguires, in which only cigar-smoking plutocrats would be gaining if the corporations they own were taxed less. In the Gilded Age, perhaps family-owned corporations were the norm, but for fifty years American corporations(but strangely, not German corporations) have been stockholder-owned, or even index-fund owned. And if not officially, individual retirement assets are a growing part of every family's savings. There was a time when only rich folk owned stock, but nowadays employee pension assets have become a growing power in the marketplace. Double taxation is much less a class issue than formerly, and perhaps even cigar-smoking union bosses can be persuaded to change their stance and their rhetoric. Lowering corporate taxes might well help the working class more than the top one percent of earners if matters were scored in a balanced way.\nFlattening the Steep Step A second point is made that increasing subsidies and tax credits for the poor, leads to a steep step up to employment and a sudden loss of subsidies, as a further hindrance to joining the work force. Deriding the loss of subsidies as favoring the \"trickle down\" process, is an unfortunate obstacle to searching for more gradual approaches to general prosperity.\nConsolidated Business Tax. An effort to achieve a gradual transition is suggested, of a consolidated business tax rather than industry taxes and exemptions, and very likely a gradual merger of the customary bank loans, versus bonds. There is a sound of general plausibility about this, but no reasoning is offered in the editorial. Depreciation might be loosened somewhat for the general purpose of increased flexibility, but in general the main area where depreciation ought to be made merely discretionary, is in non-profit companies.\nSpecifying the Top Tax Bracket. It's interesting to read Mr. Hubbard's proposal to make the top bracket for personal income tax the same as the top bracket for business income. The reasoning behind this proposal is not given, and is not immediately obvious. However, it does seem to be an improvement to have this issue removed from class warfare language of \"fairness\", to be replaced by some other benchmark with a rationale. Hubbard similarly is inclined to replace subsidies to the poor with tax credits, a move which has the additional advantage of smoothing out the \"steep step\" up to income tax which is more graduated by effectively having more gradations than merely poverty versus no-poverty. Whether this is the underlying reasoning or not, anything which softens the Molly Maguire rhetoric of the 19th Century coal mines, would be a step forward.\nHealth Care It certainly is heartening to see Health Savings Accounts recommended in both of the two alternatives he proposes for paying for healthcare, one with continued employer-based insurance and one with a tax deduction on the personal income tax. And it is certainly time for a way to be found to give equal tax deductions to those who pay for their own health insurance.\nEducational Tax Deduction. A truly innovative proposal is made about tax deductions. Mr. Hubbard proposes a personal tax deduction for education and training, similar to the one already given for investment in technology and equipment. There's a question of whether this should be given to the individual or his employer, but that can be worked out in Congress. The idea is excellent, particularly when it is limited to out-of-pocket investments in education, since it has the additional potential to address rising tuition costs, while encouraging more education.\nBlock Grants. It is also innovative to consider block grants to the states to replace the tradition of making Federal funds conditional on state \"cooperation\", which the Supreme Court has begun to disapprove, as an invasion of states rights. This one might even rise to the level of a proposed Constitutional Amendment. There is little doubt the state legislatures are the weakest part of our federalized system, that the Supreme Court recognizes that fact, and leans toward attributing this problem to the system of conditional grants.\nConsolidated Entitlements. Unless I am mistaken, there is a welcome proposal to address entitlement programs by consolidating them; and in the process begin to meet the looming issue of underfunded retirement costs. In a sense, the retirement costs are an outgrowth of improved health and longevity, a truly difficult problem created by a desirable effort.\nLet's plan to review this program before the end of the year. By that time, it will have been tested in the fire of adversary process. And since the following year will be disordered by election campaigns, we can then surmise how much will be passed into legislation, how much will be exposed as impractical, and how much will fail passage but become the lore of long-term party positions in the far future.",

Pictures\nIn 1996 Dan Cohen, owner of Computer Center of North America and the Automation Store, all high tech businesses in the greater Philadelphia area, rekindled his old passion for music. He had played in numerous bands in the Pittsburgh area but had taken a hiatus while he nurtured his companies.\nWhen he decided to form another band he realized he had a problem, time . The swing and R&B music he loved to play all needed a 10-piece band with horns to make it sound good and it would take years of practice with the right players to make it work. That's when the idea came to him to let technology make it all happen.\nAll of Dan's businesses involve computers and electronics. He took his knowledge of both these elements and put together the Philly Horn Band. Using state of the art sound processors and computer sequencing he created a virtual set of backup musicians that could make the band appear to have 12 musicians. When he layered his custom designed set of electronic drums on top of this, he had the backbone for the band. Now he needed a core group of singers and musicians to provide the \"live\" aspects to the sound. So where would a computer person look for these people? On the Internet, of course. A repertoire covering everything from Frank Sinatra to James Brown could easily be built through this concept.\nAfter playing in the delco area for about two years as a five-piece band, we decided to give people the option of hiring the band with a real horn section. With the newly added horn players doubling as vocalists, the band now sounds better than ever.",

        "title": "Presidents Medals: The Barber-Surgeons' Anatomy Theatre",
        "raw_content": "The Barber-Surgeons' Anatomy Theatre\nSusannah Bach\nThis frame coagmented for the service of the Soule we have compared to the whole world or universe.?\nIn 1638 the first dissection was performed in the newly built anatomy theatre of the Barber-Surgeons? Company in the City of London. The Barber-Surgeons had commissioned Inigo Jones to design the theatre and it was the third in Europe after those at Padua and Leiden.\nThe essay considers the form, internal arrangement and ornamentation of the anatomy theatre through an understanding of contemporary intellectual thought, in particular the cosmological and theological aspects of anatomy. A Neoplatonic view of the universe is illustrated by the work of Helkiah Crooke and Robert Fludd both of whom were Barber-Surgeons and members of Jones?s circle. Man feared that anatomisation would prevent the passage of his soul to heaven. Anatomy played a part in the system of judicial punishment, and order had to prevail over disorder.\nThe significance of the amphitheatre form as a representation of the ?theatre of the world? is considered. Study of the original drawings for the theatre reveals that the setting out of the oval, following Serlio, is based on geometrical proportioning, seen as an emulation of the cosmic and human structuring of the universe: ?compared to the whole world or universe.?\nThe different strata within the building are then discussed: first the lower ground dissecting rooms and then the three strata within the main theatre: the auditorium and its ?degrees? of seating, the wall ornamentation and finally the cosmological and astrological decoration on the concave ceiling. Its vertical stratification is analogous to Neoplatonic concepts of the body and universe and demonstrates hierachy and stability within society. It can also be viewed as a representation of beliefs on death and judgement, sanctioning anatomy and metaphorically aiding the passage of the soul to the after-life: ?for the service of the Soule.?\nInigo Jones?s theatres designed for plays have been well documented but little has been written about his links with the London medical profession. Although the theatre was demolished at the end of the eighteenth century, drawings, records from the Barber-Surgeons? Company and contemporary descriptions have been examined to provide a picture of this unique building and an insight into the lives and beliefs of seventeenth century Londoners.\nThis dissertation was submitted as an example of excellence both in its historical research and in its theoretical framework. The author's ideas range impressively across medical theory, philosophy, architectural history and archaeology. The first section explains the circumstances of the building of Inigo Jones's anatomy theatre for the Barber Surgeons (based on new archival material and surviving visual documentation) and its relationship to the medical profession and intellectual context of the period. The second section explores the complex relationship between the ideal of the body in architectural theory and the anatomical study of the body. The third section analyses the building using the vertical zones transgressed in both time and space within it, tracing the eschatological path from the perceived violation of the criminal's remains in the basement to the realm of Christian redemption in the dome.",

        "title": "ELEPHANT PLAZA Momentum music review by kev rowland",
        "raw_content": "This album started life as long ago as 2006, when Espen Mikarlsen (guitars) and Gilbert Marshall (Magic Pie), electric & acoustic guitars, keyboards, lead vocals, started jamming along to an idea. This led to the song 'Naked', and the idea that possibly they ought to make this into a full project. Recording took place when they had the time, and the opportunity to bring other musicians into the project, but neither could devote as much time as they wished due to other responsibilities (including the ongoing success of magic Pie). But gradually they were getting somewhere, until in 2010 the building where their studio was situated was burned to the ground, and it took until 2012 to get everything sorted and work could commence again.\nIn 2013 Espen decided that he could no longer contribute to the project, but Gilbert was determined to keep it going to fruition, pulling together a full band that could perform live, and eventually the album was released through Bandcamp in June 2016, as well as being released on CD by Progress Records. I was sent a copy just a few weeks ago, and was somewhat surprised to discover its existence, and I would expect an album of this quality (and especially with the large Magic Pie connections) would have made large ripples within the progverse. But, it's here now, and it has been a joy to listen to. Gilbert has been joined in this endeavour by Kim Christiansen (lead electric & acoustic guitars, vocals), John Kamphaug (Magic Pie, bass, vocals), Olav Rygg (Magic Pie Sound Tech, drums, percussion, vocals), John Petter S'terdal (keyboards, vocals) and Jan-Fredrik Heier (keyboards, vocals) as well as plenty of guests.\nAs one would expect from an album involving members of Magic Pie, the vocals are wonderful, with great harmonies, and musically this brings in influences from Pink Floyd and The Moody Blues along with great pop sensibilities. There are even elements with female vocals that it sounds as if Lana Lane and Erik Norlander are in the house! This is an incredibly well-polished and accessible progressive rock album, and it never comes across either as a project or something that was so fraught, taking ten years to finally be released. It is something that any proghead who hearkens back to the music that easy to listen to, but never easy listening, played by masters who never see the need to show off, but who can all take the lead when the time is right, will surely get a great deal from. This is a stunning debut, and let's only hope that the now they are a functioning outfit and have it out the way that they get on with recording and releasing another!

Approximately forty cases of credit card fraud have been reported to Pullman PD since September 19, 2011. The fraudulent purchases generally have been for out-of-state and overseas purchases ranging from $100 to $1,000, with some charges of less than $10 believed to be \u201ctests\u201d of the credit card number. While some of the purchases have been online transactions, others appear to be on-site transactions involving the use of fraudulent credit cards. Pullman PD investigators are working with the U.S. Secret Service to identify the perpetrators and how the credit card information was acquired.\nResidents who believe they have been a victim of credit card fraud should first contact their credit card issuer to report the fraud and cancel their card, and then contact the Pullman Police Department to initiate a criminal investigation. To initiate a criminal investigation, victims will need to provide to police the credit card number, where the suspected fraudulent purchase was charged, and the amount of the charge.

The Akaratshie community from the Garu and Tempane districts have been able to restore degraded land. Credit: Albert Oppong-Ansah/IPS\nBy Tharanga Yakupitiyage\nSustainable land management is becoming more important than ever as rates of emissions, deforestation, and water scarcity continue to increase. But what if you don\u2019t have rights to the land?\nWhile the impact of agriculture on land is well known, the relationship between land degradation and land tenure seems to be less understood.\nIn fact, research has shown that insecure land tenure is linked to poor land use as communities have fewer incentives to invest in long-term protective measures, thus contributing to environmental degradation.\n\u201cEstablishing secure tenure and secure rights to territory and resources for indigenous people and local communities is one of the most important things we can do around achieving positive outcomes for conservation,\u201d said Erin Myers Madeira who leads the Nature Conservancy\u2019s Global Programme on Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities.\n\u201cCommunities outperform the government, other stakeholders in stopping deforestation and degradation,\u201d she added to IPS.\nDespite holding customary rights to more than half of the earth\u2019s lands, indigenous people and local communities legally own only a 10 percent slice.\nResources and Rights also found the legal recognition of community forest tenure rights also still remains adequate, amounting to just over 14 percent of forest area as of 2017.\nWhile this is partially a result of a lack of government policies, land grabs by companies which fail to acknowledge communities\u2019 ancestral lands are increasingly common around the world.\nIn 2006, 200 families lost access to their land in Cambodia\u2019s Sre Ambel district to make way for a sugar plantation.\nIn Liberia, Liberian farmers were evicted after the government allocated 350,000 hectares to Malaysian multinational corporation Sime Darby, causing widespread resentment and conflict in the area.\nAccording to the United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification (UNCCD), 35 percent of the remaining available cropland across Africa has been acquired by large entities, with over 70 million hectares allotted for biofuels.\nMany have put up a fight against the expanse but it came with a deadly cost.\nAccording to Global Witness, a record 201 environmental defenders were killed in 2017 trying to protect their land from mining, agribusiness, and other industries.\nDrone visual of the area in Upper East Region, Ghana prior to restoration taken in 2015. Credit: Albert Oppong-Ansah /IPS\nPeople-Led, Better-Led\nKarina Kloos Yeatman, the Women\u2019s Land Rights Campaign Director at Landesa, highlighted the importance of people-led conservation and sustainable land management but the first step is land rights.\n\u201cIf we aren\u2019t looking forward and thinking about land use and land tenure security and finding more solutions to help people make long term investments to sustainably use their land, we are going to continue to see an even larger influx of climate migrants and people being displaced,\u201d she told IPS.\nYeatman particularly pointed to successes of how secure lands rights have led to increase long-term investments in sustainable soil and forestry management.\nFor instance, smallholder farmers with secure rights in Ethiopia were 60 percent more likely to invest in soil erosion prevention.\nIn forests where indigenous land rights have been recognised, deforestation rates have dramatically declined.\nIn Bolivia, deforestation is 2.8 times lower within tenure-secure indigenous lands.\nThis has not only helped halt land degradation, but such measures have also mitigated forest-based emissions and curbed global warming.\nBoth Yeatman and Madeira noted that land rights alone is not enough to promote sustainable land management, but rather four pillars. These are securing the rights to territories and resources; support strong community leadership and local governance; promoting multi stakeholder collaborations, allowing local communities to engage in high levels of decision-making and; identifying environmentally sustainable economic development opportunities in line with communities\u2019 cultural values and sustainable management.\n\u201cIt\u2019s when you have the four of those ingredients that is when you end up with enduring conservation, communities who have the power to protect those peoples and who can also benefit economically from their stewardship of those places,\u201d Madeira said.\nIn an effort to curb logging and deforestation, Peru\u2019s Shipibo-Conibo indigenous communities residing in the Amazon enlisted over 6,000 hectares\u201480 percent of their territory\u2014into the country\u2019s conservation programme and helps manage the land in a way that provides sustainable sources of income.\nAs part of the National Programme for Forest Conservation, communities receive 3 dollar per year for every hectare they assign to conservation which amounts to potential earnings of at least 18,000 dollar. In order to receive the payment, they must commit to protecting the forest.\nA significant proportion of the money received is thus invested back into the forest and its communities who engage in activities such as ecotourism and the sustainable extraction of forest resources.\nFarmers undertaking periodic pruning at vegetation Susudi, in the Upper East Region of Ghana. Credit: Albert Oppong-Ansah/IPS\nOne Step Forward, Many More To Go\nWhile tenure can look different in various contexts, Madeira highlighted the importance of governments and companies respecting land rights as well as the inclusion of indigenous people and local communities to shape sustainable land management planning.\n\u201cA lot of the development decisions are made far away from the ground in board rooms. The extent to which indigenous people and local communities are excluded from those decisions, you\u2019re going to get these poor outcomes,\u201d she told IPS.\nYeatman urged corporations to be aware of the complexities surrounding land tenure and support local communities to ensure a sustainable future.\n\u201c[Companies] often have 50-100 year leases and if they want the land to be sustainable, they need to help those farmers secure their land rights and help have access to information and inputs to diversify so that they are not degrading their lands,\u201d she said.\nConsumers also have a role to play, Yeatman noted, as they delve into the stories behind the products and companies they buy from.\nOxfam\u2019s campaign Behind the Brands provides a scorecard, assessing how the world\u2019s 10 largest food and beverage companies are measuring up against a number of indicators including support for women farm workers, reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and respecting rights to and sustainably using land.\nFor instance, French multinational company Danone and American manufacturer General Mills are ranked among the lowest on the land indicator as it has not committed to zero tolerance for land grabs and does not require its suppliers to consider how such acquisitions affect livelihoods.\nWhile it is easier said than done, there have already been positive developments across the world.\nMost recently, the Malaysian government file a lawsuit against local government of Kelantan state for failing to uphold the land rights of its indigenous people Orang Asli, many of whom lack formal titles, as it continues to grant licenses to logging companies and agricultural plantations.\n\u201cRapid deforestation and commercial development have resulted in widespread encroachment into the native territories of the Orang Asli,\u201d Attorney-General Tommy Thomas said in a statement.\n\u201cCommercial development and the pursuit of profit must not come at the expense of the Temiar Orang Asli and their inherent right, as citizens of this country, to the land and resources which they have traditionally owned and used,\u201d he added.\nSimilarly, Myanmar, which has among the highest rates of deforestation in Asia, plans to transfer over 918,000 hectares of forest land to community management by 2030 in order to help prevent illegal logging and allow traditional residents to practice sustainable forestry.\nThere is still a long way to go but action is necessary to prevent the dwindling of land and natural resources essential for everyone\u2019s survival.\nPoverty-Stricken Communities in Ghana are Restoring Once-Barren Land\nGender Gap Made Worse by Land Degradation",

        "raw_content": "Income distribution and inequality: How the pie is sliced in B.C.\nIt's an interesting finding, and perhaps the start of a good trend: the share of income going to Canada's top 1 per cent has declined (Statscan release here, Globe story here). One great thing Statscan has done in recent years is to make its data freely available, so I went to dig deeper on national, B.C. and Vancouver trends (some more wonky notes on data are at the bottom).\nWhat are some key takeaways?\nB.C. and Canada have a remarkably similar income distribution, and that has persisted over time. It's surprising that a province so far away from the economic centre of Canada could mirror so well national trends, but there you go.\nTop 1 per cent shares surged between 1982 and 2006/2007. If you look at annual data, the growing share of the top 1 per cent is fairly slow and steady over that time period, peaking at the top of the business cycle then dropping back before recovering. Some 60 per cent of the market income of the top 1 per cent is from wages and salaries.\nThe top tenth of 1 per cent more than doubles their share of income between 1982 and 2007. For the top hundredth of 1 per cent, data are only available for Canada (although given the similarity in distribution, we can assume B.C. is comparable). The top 0.01 per cent share triples by 2006, at 1.9 per cent, compared to 0.6 per cent in 1982.\nThe share of the pie for these top income groups falls between 2007 and 2012, but they are still taking a much larger share of than they did in 1982.\nThe market income share of the bottom half of the distribution drops over the entire period. Looking at the annual data, its share bottoms out in 2010 at 9.8 per cent. Taxes and transfers make a big difference, nearly doubling the share of income for the bottom 50 per cent. Transfers are also the most likely explanation why the share of income after tax is only somewhat lower in 2012 than in 1982 (B.C. fares notably worse on this one).\nThe flip side of this is that the top 1 per cent get more of the income pie but also pay a bigger share of taxes (10 per cent of income, 19 per cent of income taxes).\nIf I pull the same data for Vancouver, inequality and trends over time are worse. The top 1 per cent got 11.2 per cent in 2012, compared to 9.5 per cent for B.C.; and the bottom 50 per cent got 16.6 per cent, compared to 18.4 per cent for B.C. as a whole. This makes sense given the high-income professional occupations in the big city.\nThe cut-off for making B.C.'s top 1 per cent (market income) in 2012 was $213,800; for the top 0.1 per cent, $694,200; and for the top 0.01 per cent, a cool $2.6 million.\nA few comments on this data:\nI look at two key income concepts: market income (not including capital gains, and before any taxes and transfers) and after-tax income (including capital gains, after transfers and taxes). The key difference is that the latter includes actions by government, and is a better indicator of actual inequality. Data go back to 1982 and end in 2012. Between those years inequality grows up to 2007, then shrinks somewhat, so I have added a peak year comparator of 2007.\nAn important note that these data are for tax filers -- that is, individual income, not families or household income. I prefer the latter because with individual data you get a lot of students, retirees, and spouses (working part time or not at all) lumped into the bottom in a way that does not necessarily show their true command over resources.\nFinally, you can thank the pioneering work of Thomas Piketty and Emmanuel Saez (and Michael Veall in Canada) for publishing research using tax data and highlighting adverse trends at the top of the distribution. Nice to see Statscan take up publishing this data. When I started at CCPA, one could only regularly get data for income groups in quintiles (groupings of 20 per cent) and sometimes for deciles (10 per cent groupings). So to be able to get a more accurate picture further up the income ladder, where we get the real action, is a gift to an economist.\nYou can create your own custom queries here.",

        "raw_content": "Andrew Pulrang on Ashcroft Ashcroft cited an Al-Quida terrorist training manual that says, among other nasty things, that terrorists should use the rules and protections of our free society to their advantage in their attempt to destroy us. Fine, I get the irony. Does that mean that we need to stop being a free society? Nazis in the early 1930's used Germany's democratic system to gain power, then promptly used that power to dismantle democracy. Does that mean that it would have been better if Germany hadn't been democratic to begin with? Ashcroft's comment implies that in order to preserve the way we are, we need to become completely different. I disagree. You can go around in circles about this, but we also play into terrorists' hands if we dispense with our civil liberties protections. To me, the only thing to do is to continue to be who we are, authentically, and pursue criminals in a fair, agressive, and straightforward manner. Either our system is the best, most effective one, or it isn't. Personally, I'm putting my faith in our system, civil liberties and all. It will get the job done, and we don't need Ashcroft's thumb on our side of the scales.(9:11 AM) \u00b6\nNew York Times Editorial: Confessions of a Traitor But don't count me among those who quake that Mr. Ashcroft is shredding the Constitution. He does respect some rights, after all, like that of illegal immigrants and terrorists to buy guns in the U.S. without fear of government intrusion. And he just doesn't seem clever enough to undo the Bill of Rights, even with the president's backing. You have to have more command of the law than he does to subvert it.(9:10 AM) \u00b6\nDave Winer's Scripting News Weblog Dave on Ashcroft and all the inroads being made against our civil liberties: I know I keep saying this, but my grandfather, who ran from the Nazis, warned me about this when I was a kid, and I will keep passing on what he told me. It's at this point that we can do something. Later there won't be anything we can do.\nDave is dead on right. If you will forgive a somewhat geeky reference, one of the major themes in Babylon 5 was the takeover of the Earth Government by something very similar. It became seditious to speak out against the government and people were being arrested and convicted for just speaking their minds. Critics of the show cited this as one of the reasons it was a bad show. How could such a thing happen? It was ludicrous. The writer of the show replied very simply: he took all of that material directly from history. He was appalled at how few people seemed to know anything about Senator McCarthy and the House Un-American Activities Commission. If you think it can't happen here, remember that it did happen here. And it can certainly happen again. Any time a populace is scared, it can happen. And, right now, we're scared.(7:28 AM) \u00b6\nrc3.org Daily To those who pit Americans against immigrants, citizens against non-citizens, to those who scare peace-loving people with phantoms of lost liberty, my message is this: Your tactics only aid terrorists for they erode our national unity and diminish our resolve. They give ammunition to America's enemies and pause to America's friends. They encourage people of good will to remain silent in the face of evil. Our efforts have been crafted carefully to avoid infringing on constitutional rights, while saving American lives. A dead on critique of Ashcroft.(7:18 AM) \u00b6\nSpaceflight Now | Breaking News | First image taken of a dark matter object released(11:04 AM) \u00b6",

        "raw_content": "HomeSportsBlue Ridge Raiders Wall of Fame\nJanuary 19, 2018 Gavin Bradley Sports\nCred: Gavin Bradley Co-Sports/Editor\nJust this past year, Blue Ridge has decided to implement a Wall of Fame for some of the greatest athletes to come out of our school. On the wall today sit two varsity volleyball players who graduated in 2017, Megan Houlihan and Hayleigh Fekette. Both girls were three year varsity starters who received an All-Region and an All-State selection. Houlihan had a total of 512 kills, 119 aces, and 330 digs throughout her high school career. Fekette had a total of 320 kills, 687 assists, 178 aces, and 371 digs. Both were remarkable athletes, but do other athletes also deserve a spot on the wall?\nA soccer star all the way from Honduras moved to the small town of Great Bend. Axell Mejia who had been a four year varsity starter finished his career just four goals shy of 100. Mejia had been subject to an All-State selection, and is very well the best soccer player ever to come out of Blue Ridge. He is set to graduate this year with the class of 2018.\nThree other outstanding athletes that are worthy of being on the Wall of Fame are Sawyer Dearborn, Alex Cardoza and Isabella Cosmello. All were incredible basketball players. Cardoza was part of the class of 2012, and finished his career with a total of 500 assists, 800 points and 200 steals. Dearborn graduated with the class of 2013, finishing with a total of 1,294 points, and 160 3-point field goals. Cosmello graduated in 2017 and also joined the 1,000 points club, ending with 1,176 points. Despite their incredible achievements, they have yet to receive a spot on the Wall of Fame.\nThe Wall of Fame is supposed to be dedicated to Blue Ridge\u2019s most memorable athletes and they haven\u2019t been able to recognize others except for two girls\u2019 varsity volleyball players. Is there not enough room? These athletes have gone on to play collegiate sports and even semi-pro. I believe Blue Ridge needs to make some room on the wall for some more athletes, not just two.\nalex cardoza\naxell mejia\nhayleigh fekette\nisabella cosmello\nmegan houlihan\nsawyer dearborn\nBy: Gwen MacConnell/Sports Co-Editor Gwen MacConnellGwen MacConnell is a senior and this is her first year in journalism.

        "raw_content": "Just Visiting by Dahlia Adler\nOther books by Dahlia:\n{My review of Behind the Scenes || My review of Under the Lights ||\nMy review of Last Will and Testament}\nVictoria Reyes wants in\u2014in to a fashion design program, in to the arms of a cute guy who doesn't go to Charytan High, and in to a city where she won't stand out for being Mexican.\nOne thing the polar-opposite best friends do agree on is that wherever they go, they\u2019re staying together. But when they set off on a series of college visits at the start of their senior year, they quickly see that the future doesn\u2019t look quite like they expected. After two years of near-solitude following the betrayal of the ex-boyfriend who broke her heart, Reagan falls hard and fast for a Battlestar Galactica-loving, brilliant smile-sporting pre-med prospective... only to learn she's set herself up for heartbreak all over again. Meanwhile, Victoria runs full-speed toward all the things she thinks she wants\u2026 only to realize everything she\u2019s looking for might be in the very place they've sworn to leave.\nAs both Reagan and Victoria struggle to learn who they are and what they want in the present, they discover just how much they don't know about each other's pasts. And when each learns what the other\u2019s been hiding, they'll have to decide whether their friendship has a future.\nJust Visiting is a book that does something rare and wonderful: it focuses on friendship in all its wonderful, messy, complicated, beautiful glory. The book has elements of romance, and the story deals with a lot of other real-life issues, but the main focus of the book is friendship, and I love that.\nVictoria and Raegan are very different people. They have different home lives, different hobbies, different goals. They\u2019re both sort of outcasts for different reasons, but when they befriended each other, they found something magical - true friendship, the kind that can get through anything.\nThe friendship between Vic and Rae was realistic and hit close to home for me in a lot of ways. All of Adler\u2019s books have had some aspect that truly spoke to me on a personal level, and in Just Visiting, it was the main theme of the book: friendship. I'm going to get personal for a bit here...I had friendships similar to Raegan and Vic\u2019s in high school. My best friend and I planned everything around each other and there were times when she practically lived with me because her home life was so crappy. But she was secretive and started doing things behind my back, and it slowly caused cracks in our relationship. We went to the same college, same program and everything...but more secrets, more lies, and she ended up dropping out before the first semester was even over. It was devastating, and things were never the same between us. My other best friend went away for college. We talked all the time and saw each other whenever she came home. Her college course was only a year long, and after that she went to university. She made new friends, had her first boyfriend, and this distance grew between us until we barely spoke or saw each other anymore. But then a couple years ago, we started talking here and there again, and ended up reconnecting and are now closer than ever. We even spent two weeks travelling through Europe together this past summer. Sometimes people\u2019s differences can\u2019t be overcome, and sometimes hurt feelings and anger can\u2019t be overcome. I was glad to see Raegan and Vic work through things, even though it wasn\u2019t always easy. They truly loved each other and wanted each other to be happy. They learned a lot about themselves and each other, and about friendship in general.\nOther things in this book I appreciated: how realistic the romance was between Raegan and Dev. It was complicated and caused a lot of confusion, which sums up a lot of relationships when you're a teen. I also really liked how close Vic was to her family. We get something else that\u2019s quite rare in YA: parents who are involved in their kid\u2019s life. Vic loved her parents and they loved her; she actually enjoyed spending time with them and wanted to tell them things. They cared about her education, her hobbies, and wanted her to have friends. It was refreshing after seeing so many absent parents in books. One of my absolute favourite stand-out things about this book was that there was a deaf character. My brother is deaf, as are his in-laws, and we live in a town with one of the few deaf schools in the country, so I\u2019ve been surrounded by the deaf community my whole life. Even though it was a side character who was deaf, it still made me really happy. I also grinned a few times when Vic and Rae said they signed to each other when they didn\u2019t want people to know what they were saying, because I specifically taught some of my friends signs in high school so we could communicate \u2018secretly\u2019 when we didn\u2019t want others to know what we were saying.\nAnother common reaction to Adler\u2019s books: me crying at the end. With her last book, Under the Lights, I happy-cried through the last 10% because it was so perfect and beautiful. With Just Visiting, I cried in the epilogue because, again, it was perfect. It was bittersweet but realistic and I was glad to see the girls happy and doing what was right for them.\nJust Visiting is a realistic look at the trials and triumphs in friendship. It captured that feeling of uncertainty about the future when you\u2019re a teenager and getting ready to set out into the \u2018real world\u2019. I would definitely recommend Just Visiting to fans of contemporary YA.\nHave you read Just Visiting? What did you think? If you haven't read it, do you plan to? What are some of your favourite books with strong friendships? Let's talk here or on Twitter!\nLabels: 4 star review, ARC, Dahlia Adler, diversity FTW, Spencer Hill, Young Adult Contemporary or Romance\nHow have I not heard of this one? Sounds very cute and I love YA contemporary.",

        "raw_content": "End one-sided reports\nPublished online Thursday May 12th, 2005\nI just read Jeff Donowitz's letter [April 28: \"Hook should be ashamed\"] regarding the story on vaccines and autism.\nI am the father of a six-year-old autistic girl, and I am lately inclined to believe that our childhood vaccine program has had a lot do with our current epidemic of autism, ADHD, type-1 diabetes, peanut anaphylaxis, and other disorders.\nI have been comparatively slow coming to this position. Many of my friends, especially those better read on the topic than I am, have reached this conclusion far more quickly.\nDonowitz complains that the article was \"one sided.\" It didn't strike me that way, but maybe it ought to have been. Coverage in the popular press (NBC, Time, Newsweek) has certainly been one sided. In these media, the only story is that every study has concluded that there is no connection between vaccines (especially thimerosal) and autism. This is not true.\nPlease read Evidence of Harm by David Kirby. The essential fact of it is that those in charge of our National Immunization Program have failed to protect people from unnecessary harm, and have failed to protect the program from loss of citizens' confidence.\nThey have treated every honest request for information with disdain. The Centers for Disease Control have refused requests from independent researchers for access to the Vaccine Safety Datalink. The CDC study of the data from the VSD originally found a high association between thimerosal and neurodevelopmental disorders. Subsequent reworkings of the study made the connection disappear. These are facts which can be checked. The unfortunate dual responsibility of the CDC for both promotion of the program and oversight of it is unworkable.\nDonowitz says \"shame\" on the Hook. I say \"thank you\" for trying to bring some balance to a topic which has been presented in a very lopsided way in the popular press.",

        "title": "PUA Game Is Not Enough To Keep The Girl You Like \u2013 Return Of Kings",
        "raw_content": "Broadly, there are two types of \u201cgame.\u201d The first type is pick-up artist (PUA) game: the art of meeting girls and getting them to go out on a date\u2014or more. The second type is relationship game: the ability to stay in a relationship with the high quality female of your choice. Unfortunately, just because you are good at one does not mean you will be good at the other. Unless you plan to become a monk, you need to be adept with both types.\nPick-up game qualities\nSoy-faced beta male attempts pick-up game at coffee shop\nA man with good pick-up game has a certain set of qualities. Probably the most important of these is self-confidence. If you have self-confidence and nothing else, you can still have good pick-up game.\nI encountered a great example of this while I was still dating my future wife. One of her friends was dating a very shady character that she met at a club. Even though this guy didn\u2019t have much going for him, he was very effective at presenting himself as a man to reckoned with. Whenever he went out, he made sure he was dressed like James Bond. Even though he had a minimum wage job and no marketable skills, he created a Facebook page where he listed himself as CEO of some imaginary company. More importantly, the man exhibited bulletproof self-confidence. When he spoke to girls, he gave off the impression of being a very important person. Using his technique, he was able to pull some very attractive girls, live with them with them for a period until they caught on to his true situation, and then move on to another target.\nThe second most important factor in good pick-up game is having the ability to carry on a conversation. If you look like a Brad Pitt but are unable to chat comfortably, you will never be able to refine your pick-up game to high levels. Some pick-up artists use predetermined pick-up lines, but I never used them and had pretty good success in every venue except nightclubs where girls are naturally copping an attitude and where the music is so loud that conversation is impossible. Simply developing good general conversation skills\u2014talking to a girl is really not too different from talking to your friends\u2014is probably a better use of time than memorizing a script.\nOf course, it helps to be good looking but it is not as important as confidence and the ability to chat. Regardless of what you may hear girls do prefer buff men. A man did an experiment on Tinder where he posted a picture of a very fit male model, but included some strong red-pill statements. Despite his \u201cmisogynist\u201d sentiments, women were fawning all over him hoping to get noticed. When it comes to physical appearance, cleanliness and dressing well can\u2019t hurt either.\nFinally, attitude is also important to pick-up game. If you give off an air of desperation, you will have little success. There are other more esoteric concepts that you can find here on ROK. Those concepts can be helpful, but if you have the qualities mentioned above, your pick-up game will be solid.\nRelationship game qualities\nMost websites that talk about game stop at pick-up game. But most men do not want to hop from woman to woman for the rest of their lives. We want to settle down with a single, high-quality woman. Being able to keep a high quality woman also requires game, but the qualities it requires are different from those required in pick-up game. Some of them are shared.\nFor example, self-confidence is critical to relationship game. Women want a leader they can trust. The difference is that when you are in a relationship, you can\u2019t fake self-confidence because your wife or girlfriend will see you at your worst moments. She will see the real you and if the image you\u2019ve constructed doesn\u2019t match reality, she will lose interest.\nAnother quality of good relationship game is being able to provide. While some women are just immoral gold diggers, all women are naturally wired to seek out a man who can provide her in and her children with food, shelter, and protection. Ideally, women want to marry an alpha male who can provide. If no alphas are available to her, a woman will settle down with a beta male who is a good provider. This is a bad situation as women always gravitate to alpha males, even after marriage. The phrase, alpha fucks, beta bucks conveys a lot of truth. Therefore, it is critical to up your social status if you plan to stay in a relationship.\nA third important quality is having a mission. Women want to be loved and cherished but they don\u2019t want a man whose entire universe is his woman. Please don\u2019t be that guy who loses his life and merges into his woman like some weird parasite. Discerning a mission is not always easy but once you find it, it will focus your life like nothing else.\nCommunication skills\u2014listening and being able to verbalize what you are thinking\u2014are critical to a successful long-term relationship. You don\u2019t have to worry about being interesting so much as being able to genuinely converse about what matters. Allied with this, a man needs to be a true friend of his spouse/girlfriend.\nJust as in pick-up game, maintaining your looks is necessary in a relationship. Turning into a slob after you get a girlfriend or get married is a good way of encouraging your woman to look elsewhere. That said, once you are in a relationship, especially marriage, looks take a backseat to the other qualities.\nLast but not least, love is requirement for a successful long term relationship. That doesn\u2019t mean that you have to feel infatuated with your partner, but you must love your girl as you love yourself. After all, if you don\u2019t love your woman, why are you in a relationship with her?\nTo be a well-rounded man, you must have a good degree of both types of game. You\u2019ll need pick-up game to meet the women you want to meet, and once you\u2019ve met one you want to settle down with, you\u2019ll need relationship game to keep her. The good news is that if you are missing one or both types of game, it is possible to develop the qualities through diligent effort.\nRead More: The Father Of Relationship Game Shares His Secrets\nPrevious ArticleEvery Man Must Visit His Ancestral Village\nNext ArticleThe Official Narrative Of The Las Vegas Shooting Is Bullshit",

        "raw_content": "Filed UnderAstrology Awakening Dreamers Cinematrix\nNetflix has another, runaway hit on its hands. The MK Ultra, supernatural thriller. set in the 1980\u2019s, \u201cStranger Things\u201d has taken the alt-research community by storm with plenty of deconstruction get down. From hidden-in-plain-sight, to predictive programming, it\u2019s a treasure trove for crypto-codebreakers. I did a brief breakdown on it on my show on Sunday night (see below) and want to go a bit deeper here. I saw \u201cStranger Things\u201d as being an occult compliment to another film/media project, \u201cMidnight Special\u201d which just completed a run at the theaters. What I\u2019m going to do, is connect the dots between the two and show how there is an alchemical operation that is taking place between the two with of course some astrology thrown in for good measure.\nLet\u2019s set the stage for both.\n\u201dStranger Things\u201d is set in the aforementioned 1980\u2019s where a town in Indiana is experiencing some very strange disappearances. It starts with the abduction of \u201cWill\u201d (note the name), an unusual boy, and the son of Winona Ryder\u2019s character, Joyce Beyers (a lot more about her later). Will\u2019s disappearance triggers the trauma of the brooding, local sheriff, played by David Harbour. Harbour\u2019s character seems to come alive when called upon to investigate Will\u2019s case, awakening from the slumber of grief, he becomes a man possessed, and will do everything in his power to find Will and hopefully spare the enormity of loss another parent will go through. Harbour\u2019s Chief Harper is unabashedly male and heroic, a quality that he shares with two male characters in \u201cMidnight Special.\u201d Its interesting to note that his character is a throwback, not just existing in the 1980\u2019s but further back in the annals of Hollywood. Think Gary Cooper with a slightly psychotic edge.\nWhile Will vanishes, another character emerges. Like a lab animal that\u2019s managed to escape, a shaved headed girl in a medical smock winds up surfacing in a restaurant, wild and hungry for food. We\u2019ll find out later, that her name is \u201c11\u201d and will be called \u201cEl\u201d for short. \u201cEl\u201d of course is Saturn, short for Elohim, the race of giants that was once thought to roam the Earth, becoming the legendary kings of Agartha. The sons of man mated with the Elohim and created a sub-species of giants. Is \u201cEl\u201d the magical daughter of the Elohim, gifted with powers from other times, or is she just another experiment from the twisted mind of Dr. Brenner, her icy handler, perfectly played by Matthew Modine?\nModine\u2019s silver-haired scientist gone bad is portrayed with maniacal perfection, a man without a conscience, driven perhaps by the loss and sacrifice of his own son. There are twisted tales in \u201cStranger Things,\u201d parents united by loss, tragedy and the web of fate. \u201cBrenner\u201d is high German. This is in likely reference to Operation Paperclip, where the German brain trust was rushed out of Germany before the Nuremberg. And it\u2019s these German scientists and researchers that were linked to MK Ultra, which \u201cStranger Things\u201d exposes. But Brenner also has another meaning. \u201cBrenner\u201d is also known as \u201cBurner\u201d and Burner is defined as a \u201cdistiller of spirits.\u201d\nEl, is a supernatural force occupying a human body. Brenner has distilled her spirit and when we get into the language of Neptune and Pisces, since Pisces rules all liquids and appellations, which occur in the distilling process, so whether it\u2019s alcohol or the ethers of spiritual manifestation, Pisces is the channel though which it is manifested. In both \u201cStranger Things\u201d and \u201cMidnight Special\u201d Pisces plays a key role.\nSo \u201cEleven\u201d or \u201c11\u201d aka \u201cEl\u201d represents duality, the light and the dark. Coincidentally, Millie Bobby Brown, who plays Jane \u201cEleven\u201d Ives was born on 2/19/01, which makes her 0 degrees Pisces.\nHere is what he bio on IMDB says about her.\n\u201d Millie Brown was born in Spain, to British parents. They moved to Orlando, Florida in 2011, where Millie went to acting workshops to pass the time on a Saturday, and it was there that a top Hollywood talent scout called and told Millie\u2019s parents that \u201cshe has instincts you cannot teach.\u201d She advised Millie\u2019s parents that Millie could \u201cmix it with the best kids in Hollywood.\u201d They packed up and drove from Orlando to Los Angeles, and within a week, Millie was meeting with the town\u2019s top children\u2019s talent agencies. She was offered representation by all the agents that she met. Within three months of being in Hollywood, Millie was offered the role of young Alice in ABC\u2019s Once Upon a Time in Wonderland. In November 2013, after just one self-taped audition, and without meeting the producers/directors, Millie was offered the role of Madison O\u2019Donnell in BBC America\u2019s show, \u201cIntruders.\u201d\nHere is what IMDB says about \u201cThe Intruders\u201d; \u201c A TV series centered around a secret society devoted to chasing immortality by seeking refuge in the bodies of others.\u201d Kind of makes you go, hmmmmm.\u201d\nNot that I\u2019m suggesting anything, ahem, conspiratorial here, but she\u2019s born in Marbella, Spain to English parents, and then moves to Orlando, Disney central casting for the likes of Brittney, Christina and Miley and within months, the family is off to LA, where she is catapulted into TV and film production without much effort at all, leading to her first feature where she plays Alice, who ventures forth into an alternate reality. Then she plays a young girl in a series about secret societies and spiritual possession. After that, she shows up as a programmed weapon in \u201cStranger Things.\u201d I\u2019m just speculating a bit here, but these roles seem like type casting in a way that might reveal even more about the life of Millie Bobby Brown and the deeper meaning of \u201cStranger Things.\u201d\nBTW, Marbella, was transferred into the hands of the Spanish on \u201cJune 11th 1498.\u201d Yeah, that\u2019s right, \u201c11,\u201d \u201cGemini,\u201d duality.\nShe\u2019s befriended by Will\u2019s friends, three boys who are the poster children for the Geek Squad, full on nerds dedicated to Dungeons and Dragons, and ham radios. One of the boys who befriends her and brings into his home is named, \u201cMark.\u201d Another one of the boys is black and named \u201cLucas Sinclair.\u201d Lucas is of course \u201cThe Light Bringer\u201d and \u201cSinclair\u201d is the last name of the family that founded Rosslyn chapel in Scotland, usually referenced as the Freemasonic church of the Midlothians, where Freemasonry fled to after the massacre of the Knights Templar. Sinclair (formerly Saint Claire) became a patron of the lodge. Sinclair can also be translated into \u201cThe sin that is clear\u201d or \u201cThe clarified sin,\u201d or \u201cThe pure sin.\u201d Sin is Egyptian for the \u201cMoon.\u201d So Sinclair could also be \u201cclear moon,\u201d or \u201cbright moon\u201d or \u201cfull moon.\u201d Look at the poster/graphic for the show and what do we see in the upper, right hand corner?\nSo now, we have a character whose name is essentially \u201cLight Bringer\u201d and \u201cClear Sin.\u201d He gets into a skirmish with Mark when \u201cEl\u201d uses her powers of levitation on Lucas to help him. Lucas becomes the rebellious one of the group. Ironically, in \u201cMidnight Special\u201d another key character is also named \u201cLucas\u201d and he too plays a rebel, a cop who helps his friend, \u201cRoy\u201d kidnap Roy\u2019s son from a doomsday cult in \u201cSan Angelo,\u201d Texas. More on both Lucas\u2019s or Luki or Loki and these two, amazingly linked show/film, tomorrow.\nTagged WithAstrologyFreemasonryGnosticismMidnight SpecialPiscesRobert PhoenixSaturnStranger ThingsThe El",

        "raw_content": "Cole Camplese threw the blogging gauntlet down today. In a general post on his blog, he proposed the idea of writing a blog post each day for the month of August. After a number of favorable responses, Cole fleshed out the guidelines in his post New Rules, One Post a Day and challenged his readers to join him in this experiment. I find this both intriguing and terrifying. Obviously, I don\u2019t post every day; instead, I tend to blog when the feeling moves me (as she says in Pretty Woman, \u201cI say who, I say where, I say how much\u2026\u201d). So to make the commitment that I will definitely create a post each day that isn\u2019t just phoned in is a big commitment for me. What will I talk about?\nHonestly, I am going to rely on my community for much of my input. I am going to make observations and engage others who have also decided to join this experiment to interact with their posts, their thoughts, their reflections. This is going to be more than I normally do; a lot of times, I simply lurk on a blog but it really doesn\u2019t allow me to engage in the discussion, now, does it? Bad form, Robin! Perhaps this is what I need to better understand and get to know my community. What they are interested in. What their background is. What motivates them. What are they passionate about. Right now I don\u2019t know where this is going.\nBut I bet I find out.\nSo here, reposted, are Cole\u2019s parameters for this month long experiment:\nI\u2019ll post every week day during the month of August. I am giving myself the weekends to think about other things.\nPosts have to be meaningful to count. I\u2019m not going to simply point\nat an external site and say \u201cthis is cool.\u201d I\u2019ll try to find things\nthat could be of value to the community.\nSticking to a theme seems like a good idea. From a few the comments\nit seems important to have a focus and I think I know what I want to\nfocus on \u2026 I\u2019ll work to expose interesting results from both our and\nnational statistics that have emerged in the last year. I\u2019ll draw upon\ndata we\u2019ve been collecting and attempt to add a layer of context to it\nthat explains where we are going and why.\nTrying to create conversation will be a big part of the effort. I\u2019d\nlike to share stuff that gets people anxious, angry, excited, and\ninterested in talking back.\nHaving fun and writing are really what it is all about. If I\u2019m not\nhaving fun, I\u2019m done. That doesn\u2019t mean I am dropping out if it gets\nhard, but it means that if I am having a good time exploring ideas then\nThere are no invitations required to join in. If you want to write\nalong with me, let\u2019s come with a shared tag and I\u2019ll aggregate stuff\ntogether on a public page shared via Google Reader. I you want to come\nalong, establish your own theme, and torment yourself with me then\nleave a comment and share an idea for a shared tag.\nSo there it is. One post, each work day, of value and fun. Hopefully insight will follow.\nAre you in too?\nWelcome to the posting party! This should be an interesting month of content around here. I am looking forward to seeing what comes of all this. Thanks for being a part of the latest insane grand experiment!\nI wrote this post when I came up for 10 minutes of air during the retreat. Thought it was an intriguing idea, and worth a go. While I admire Reginald\u2019s ability to come up with an actual list of topics to discuss during the month, I have less faith in my ability to do so. Instead, I think I am going to mine the efforts of others that are taking the plunge with us, then use trackbacks so that I can respond while still retaining a record of my content. At least that\u2019s my plan at the moment; hopefully I might even be motivated to come up with content of my own accord. We\u2019ll see how it plays out.",

        "raw_content": "James Gandolfini: How the Sopranos changed television\nI was saddened to hear this week of the death of actor James Gandolfini, best known for his role as Tony Soprano in The Sopranos.\nThe Sopranos is one of my favourite television shows of all time. The Sopranos and the HBO channel it was made by changed television.\nI think it showed that TV could challenge films artistically. The Sopranos explored stories, themes and characters with a depth that simply isn't available in film.\nI've always been interested in organised crime and the Mafia. When I first heard about the Sopranos I knew it was something that would appeal to me.\nWhat I liked was that it wasn't really just about gangsters. Tony Soprano was a middle aged suburban husband and father with a senior level executive job. It just so happened that rather than working in government or finance, his profession was organised crime.\nThere were two sides to the Sopranos. On the one side it was a show about the Mafia and gangsters, but take away the gangster element and you were left with a family drama of suburban American life.\nI loved how the Sopranos showed that being a member of the Mafia was just a day job, Tony Soprano was a stressed husband, he suffered from anxiety attacks, had a difficult relationship with his mother, two typical teenage children entering adulthood, and a challenging working environment.\nThese were things that so many of us could relate to, even if your day job didn't involve chopping up some unfortunate wiseguy.\nThe scale and success of The Sopranos allowed more TV dramas to develop and take on greater storytelling challenges. Without The Sopranos there wouldn't be The Wire, Mad Men, Broadwalk Empire and so many other great TV shows.\nWimbledon 2013 - The art of queuing\nBrazilian protests: Is the World Cup what Brazil n...\nJames Gandolfini: How the Sopranos changed televis...\nMiami Heat are NBA Champions",

        "raw_content": "Women Enlightenment : in Action and Works of Sister Nivedita\nSister Nivedita, a Scot-Irish disciple of Swami Vivekananda, social worker, author, teacher, was born as Margaret Elizabeth Noble in 1867 in Ireland. She met Swami Vivekananda in 1895 in London and came down to Kolkata in 1898. Swami Vivekananda gave her the name Nivedita when he initiated her into the vow of Brahmacharya on 25 March 1898. It was her \u2018rebirth\u2019 as she often said, and to make her new name meaningful, she devoted whole of her life in the service of humanity in general and upliftment of women in particular. She rendered her painstaking services by extensive and practical social work and by the ocean of the creative writings that inspired the intellectuals globally.\nI have chosen this topic mainly on three counts. First, currently, India is celebrating the birth centenary of Swami Vivekananda, Sister Nivedita\u2019s mentor. Secondly, last year was the year of death centenary of Sister Nivedita herself; it may be recalled that she breathed her last in 1911.\nThe third and main reason is to draw the attention of the faculty of English to the most regrettable fact that we have paid little attention towards the ocean of her writings which are largely marked by her incessant endeavors for the enlightenment and upliftment of women.\nMost of her works, which include collection of essays, short stories and memoirs, abound in her deep concern for the upliftment and empowerment of women and yet we, the Indians hardly take note of her services; both social and literary. I therefore find it necessary to furnish a select list of her major works; many of which were published by the British and American publishers.\nThe Web of Indian Life. W. Heinemann. 1904.\nCradle Tales of Hinduism. Longmans,. 1907.\nHints on National Education in India.\nGlimpses of Famine and Flood in East Bengal\u20141906.\nKali the Mother. Swan Sonnenschein & Co.,. 1900.\nAn Indian study of love and death. Longmans, Green & Co.,. 1908.\nSelect essays of Sister Nivedita. Ganesh & Co.,. 1911.\nStudies from an Eastern Home. 1913.\nMyths of Hindus and Buddhists.. London: George G. Harrap & Co.,. 1913.\nFootfalls of Indian history. Longmans, Green & Co.,. 1915.\nReligion and Dharma. Longmans, Green, and Co.,. 1915.\nCivic & national ideals.. Udbodhan Office. 1929.\nVery few of would be aware of the fact that Sister Nivedita also inspired youths as the editor of Karma Yogin, the nationalist newspaper founded by Sri Aurobindo.\nBased on the bulk of her works and actions that speak amply for what an enlightened woman is all about, I contend that she was for the women\u2019s enlightenment rather than feminism.\nBefore I may talk about Sister Nivedita\u2019s deep concern for the women\u2019s upliftment in her works, I would like to show how and why all her actions and works are marked by her compassionate treatment of the women folk.\nA true missionary of the newly established Ramakrishna Mission, she had dedicated her whole life for the cause of humanity, more specifically for the upliftment of the down-trodden woman. Apart from being the first ever true woman missionary in India, Sister Nivedita was a prolific writer and mesmerizing orator who extensively toured India to deliver lectures, especially on social awareness and India's culture. She appealed to the Indian youth to work selflessly for the cause of the motherland and humanity along the ideals of Swami Vivekananda. In all her works, she has reflected her deepest concerns for the pathetic conditions of the mankind, particularly women, in the 1890s. She showed the way out not by precepts but practice.\nA great humanitarian, Sister Nivedita intensively took part in the scores of altruistic activities for the upliftment of women, until she breathed her last in 1911. For the enlightenment of the women, she worked hard for the promotion of the social services, arts, spirituality, Indian history, culture and science among the women and took extreme pains to improve the lives of the Indian women, irrespective of class or creed. To this end, she started a school for exclusively for girls and women who were deprived of even basic education in Kolkata in November 1898. She went from home to home in educate girls, many of whom were in pitiable conditions. Nivedita had widows and adult women among her students. She taught sewing, elementary rules of hygiene, nursing etc., apart from regular courses.\nDuring the outbreak of plague epidemic in Kolkata in 1899, Nivedita nursed and took care of thousands of the patients, cleaned rubbish from the streets. To train the women folk about the preventive measures, she also personally distributed the written instructions by moving around the most affected areas.\nMany intellectuals, artists and scientists in Kolkata, including the Nobel laureate Rabindranath Tagore, Sir Jagdish Chandra Bose, Abala Bose, Annie Besant, Sri Aurobindo and Abanindranath Tagore were impressed by Sister Nivedita\u2019s efforts for the women\u2019s enlightenment. Nivedita inculcated the nationalist spirit and humanitarian values among her students through all their daily activities. She introduced singing of the song Vande M\u00e0taram in her school as a prayer.\nAll her activities encircled almost all fields of human life; culture, arts, education, science, spirituality, literature and scores of others. Because of her intense participation in all these fields of humanity, it was obvious that her actions and experiences were translated into her creative writings. I would now like to show how she projected her concern for the enlightenment of women in her books.\nStudies from an Eastern Home is a set of essays by Sister Nivedita, published posthumously in 1913. In this book, she gives a rare ground-level vista of Hinduism from a woman's point of view in the 19th century. Pervading her writing is an earnest quest for spiritual liberation and sincere love for the Indian people of all castes. In this book, she nullifies the dogma that the way to salvation is open only for specific class of human being and asserts that all humans are equal because the same divinity pervades in all alike, irrespective of class or creed.\nIn The Web of Indian Life, Sister Nivedita seeks to rectify many dogmatic myths about Indian culture and customs that were prevalent in the Western world. In this book, she dwells upon the dignity of man, highlighting the significant role of women.\nIn The Cradle Tales of Hinduism Sister Nivedita retells the stories from Puranas, Ramayana and Mahabharata and drawing parallels form the characters like Kunti, Draupadi and Savitri, she attempts to highlight the role of women in developing the man into a superman.\nI have chosen to speak at some length on Select Essays of Sister Nivedita precisely because it is a landmark work in which, Sister Nivedita talks at length on variety of issues concerning human life. As the manuscripts of this book went to the press when she was counting her days and it was published soon after her death, this book is considered to be the essence of her thoughts. Though the focal point of this book is the causes of the human predicament, it questions and negates the imperialistic attitude and dominance of the West in order to subjugate the millions of Indians and upholds the supremacy of humanity only against all other considerations. The longest essay in her landmark work is The Present Position of Woman in which she out rightly rejects the Western notion of the classification of women and asserts: \u201cPerhaps the only true classification is based on ideals, and if so, we might divide human society, in so far as woman is concerned, into communities dominated by the civic, and communities dominated by the family, ideal.\u201d Commending the significant role the Indian women have played in past, she writes that the civic evolution of woman as a process, always takes place most rapidly in those communities and at those epochs when political or industrial transformation, or both, are most energetic and individuating and proudly concludes her argument thus; \u201cIn India, also, women have held power, from time to time, as rulers and administrators, often with memorable success.\u201d In the same book, in the essay Revival or Reform, Sister Nivedita talks about the orthodoxies of cults and religions across the globe and stresses the need to cast away the insular sectarian dogmas in the larger interest of humanity. Though a Christian by birth and breeding, she has no hesitation in blaming the Christians for spreading insular dogmas. Similarly, in What books to Read, she advises the Indian youths to start with the Ramayan and the Mahabharat before switching over to Homer and Virgil and other Western classics. She feels that knowledge of the cultural heritage of one\u2019s own land is imperative for the progress of the society. Preferring character to intellectual accomplishment in the essay The Future Education of the Indian Woman, she writes; \u201cAn education of the brain that uprooted humility and took away tenderness would be no true education at all. These virtues may find different forms of expression in mediaeval and modern civilizations, but they are necessary in both. All education worth having must first devote itself to the developing and consolidating of character, and only secondarily concern itself with intellectual accomplishment.\" For an all-round development of the Indian woman, who could effectively take on the challenges of the twentieth century, she envisages the need for \u2018a form of education that might attain this end of developing the faculties of soul and mind in harmony with one another\u2019 and insists that woman must be taught science, history and geography because from these subjects the mind envisages ideas. The essay clearly outlines her vision of the enlightened Indian woman. It may be recalled that the school she started only for girls in 1898 had earned a name and fame in a very short period and it was frequently visited by Rabindranath Tagore and Sir Jagdish Chandra Bose. In his Foreword to the book, AJF Blair, the editor of Empire has complimented Sister Nivedita in these words; \"The white flower of nobility\"\u2014 \u201cNivedita\" dedicated.\" Whether we think of her by her English or her Indian name; was ever human being more appropriately called? ... Unselfish, brave, white-souled, dowered so nobly with mental, spiritual and physical graces, who can express in words what she was to those who loved her, or gather up the measure of their loss ? The words on her epigraph best speaks for her treatment of humanism for which she dedicated all her life leaving the luxuries to England. Her epitaph reads, \"Here reposes Sister Nivedita who gave her all to India\".\nI sincerely feel the need to look back in not, in anger; but with all dignity and dig out the treasure of Sister Nivedita\u2019s actions for the enlightenment of women since it has been lying \u2018un-mined\u2019 in her works for over a century.\nJagdish Anerao, Asso.

        "raw_content": "Sheffield specialist engineering firm SCX is supporting Westinghouse Platform Screen Doors (WPSD), a division of Knorr-Bremse UK Rail, in optimising the installation of their platform screen system on the Crossrail project.\nThe mechanical handling rig, devised by SCX Special Projects\u2019 world-class engineers for rail systems contractor Knorr-Bremse, has helped to transform the installation process and generate significant benefits.\nSCX's innovative lifting rig simplifies platform screen door installation \u00a9 SCX / Crossrail\nSCX worked closely with WPSD to design and build the rig, resulting in increased efficiencies, including time and cost savings. The solution has earned widespread praise for SCX\u2019s engineering excellence.\nPlatform screen doors are being installed at the eight new underground stations on the Crossrail project. They protect passengers from the track and train, creating a quieter and cleaner platform environment and economical air-conditioning.\nInstallation of the platform door modules needs to be performed from the track, rather than a conventional \u2018on platform\u2019 construction. The SCX rig facilitates fast, accurate and safe mounting of complete door modules onto the platform, as well as being easy to operate.\nOne of the key engineering challenges was the limited amount of space in which the mechanical handling system had to operate. The rigs delivered by the SCX Special Projects team are of an extremely compact design, yet more than capable of the task.\nThe rigs had to offer excellent reliability and flexibility too. In the region of 500 door modules are to be installed, ranging from 5.5 to 6.3 metres in length, and 1.5 to 2.0 tons in weight.\nThe BBC filmed the installation process for their prime time \u2018The One Show\u2019 in May 2017, showing the SCX rigs in operation. Presenter Marty Jopson described the rig in action as, \u2018a thing of beauty\u2019: praise indeed!\nKnorr-Bremse project manager Robert Harker, commenting on the rig technology, said:\n\u201cSCX Special Projects has worked closely with us and delivered a solution which demonstrates ingenuity and engineering excellence. The quality and functionality of the rigs are outstanding and they are proving easy to operate on site.\u201d\nDanny Pickard, lead engineer at SCX Special Projects, adds:\n\u201cOur clients tend to have one thing in common: a unique and complex mechanical handling problem, which needs an engineering solution. In looking to solve those problems we innovate in every area of the design, whether that\u2019s mechanical, electrical, controls, structural or safety.\nDanny continues:\n\u201cSCX\u2019s mechanical handling expertise encompasses the entire process from concept design, to fabrication and assembly, right through to final installation. The brief from WPSD/Knorr-Bremse touched on all of those disciplines. It\u2019s a real pleasure to work with a client like WPSD/Knorr-Bremse, and a genuine privilege to play our part in the success of the London Crossrail project.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Saturday Spotlight- Sarah Thompsen\nName: Sarah Thompsen\nOccupation: Mental Health Counselor\nMarried to: Pete Thompsen, for almost 10 years now\nKids: 2 daughters, Kaylee (6) and River (3)\nPets: 2 cats and 3 snakes (well, the ball python isn\u2019t technically ours.)\nFirst off: Thanks, Lou, for tapping me for WOTW, and HAPPY BIRTHDAY, intrepid President!\nOK, this might get long, so let\u2019s see, where to begin? I grew up in an abnormally normal, healthy, middle-class family over in Commack, with a younger brother and a mom and dad who are still happily married. I was painfully shy growing up (something I still haven\u2019t really shaken, lol). I had a few friends around the neighborhood, but mostly kept to myself. Eventually my mom signed me up for some of the usual activities; I did 3 years of dance, 2 years of soccer (which I didn\u2019t like because of all the running! Lol!), 2 years of softball, and then finally a few years of horseback riding, which I loved so much that I later joined the equestrian team at college. I refused to do any of the competitions, though; I just loved simply riding, and to this day I miss it.\nIn school I did very well academically (I\u2019m a nerd to the core!), but remained pretty socially isolated. I got along with a few classmates, was ignored by most, and was occasionally a target for bullies (an amusing one too, because I can\u2019t help but cry). Added in to that was (and is, lol) a hefty dose of anxiety, and I had a really hard time finding any place I felt comfortable. I never quite fit. Then, through a chain of events that started summer of 1998 with me dancing around the kitchen as I cleaned up after dinner and ended in line for Nitro at Six Flags Great Adventure in October 2002, I wound up meeting my husband Peter. With him and his friends, I finally found a happy place; people with whom I fit, I belonged. Other sci-fi nerds who accepted me for all my geekdom! We got married in April of 2006, and in my contentedness, I gained (more than) a few pounds, and so it led me to running.\nWhen I first started in June of 2008, it was hard. Really hard. My lungs would burn. I did run/walk intervals (though at the time I had no idea that those were a thing), and I was just getting to the point where I didn\u2019t need to take walk breaks when in August I found out I was pregnant! Dr\u2019s orders were to stop running because I was still so new to it, didn\u2019t wanna stress my body any more than it already was. Being a new mommy was exhausting, so I didn\u2019t start running again until 2010; but I finally got into a 3x a week habit. And it was a CHORE. I\u2019d spend the whole miserable 2-3 ish miles telling myself \u201cI\u2019m doing this today so I don\u2019t have to do it tomorrow!\u201d Then in 2012 I got pregnant again, and for a variety of reasons I chose to stop running. Being a mommy of 2 is REALLY exhausting. kiki emoticon I didn\u2019t start running again in earnest until 2014, when I had reached 180 lbs and had no energy to keep up with my daughters. Between diet and exercise, by that October I lost the 50 lbs I wanted to\u2026 and somehow along the way my relationship with running had changed. It wasn\u2019t a chore, it was a challenge. I wanted to see if I could finish my route faster each time. I\u2019d mustered up the nerve to enter the Cystic Fibrosis 4 miler in July (I\u2019d never done a race, and NEVER run farther than 5k), and somehow placed 3rd in my age group (with a 35:31, lol). That was it, I was hooked on racing. Running became training. I grew to love it, how it made me feel, tracking how I was improving. My goals got bigger. I did my first 10k that September, then the Brewery 10 Miler in January. It had become another happy place, though a very isolated place (even at races, since I didn\u2019t really know anyone). Then I met Victoria Gianninoto on a Facebook running group, and she invited me to the hills in March 2015, the week after she first went. This night-owl somehow became a vampire. I met Shelly RB and Jaime LP and Rob Cosentino and Katy Rice Forman and SO many other amazing people. I NEVER would have imagined myself getting up before the sun, not just for the sake of running, but so I could run with these people. Now I have a hard time imagining NOT doing it. This crew helped me get through my first half marathon in May and my first full at the Suffolk Marathon in September (and then my second marathon at NYC a month and a half later! Lol!). For the second time in my life, I\u2019ve found a place where I belong, and I can\u2019t even begin to quantify HOW MUCH that means to me.\nThank you for you patience with my ramblings, have a lovely weekend! Stay safe and warm and enjoy the snow!\n\u2190 Why New Year\u2019s Resolutions Suck\nWarrior Story- Sarah Thompsen \u2192",

        "raw_content": "Reports: Butler, Amendola leaving Patriots\nNew England Patriots wide receiver Danny Amendola speaks with reporters during a Jan. 31 news conference in Minneapolis. (AP FILE PHOTO)\nFOXBORO (AP) -- The New England Patriots will have to reload for another Super Bowl run without at least two of their talented playmakers, according to Tuesday's reports.\nAn unnamed source confirmed to the Associated Press that New England wide receiver Danny Amendola was closing in on a contract with the Miami Dolphins. The agent for Malcolm Butler, meanwhile, says the cornerback has agreed to a five-year contract with the Tennessee Titans. No deals can officially be made until NFL free agency opens on Wednesday.\nAmendola, 32, has been one of quarterback Tom Brady's favorite targets in New England. The nine-year NFL veteran has 426 career receptions and 19 touchdowns, and since 2013 he has played in 13 postseason games with Brady and New England. Last year, Amendola caught 61 passes for 659 yards.\nThe 28-year-old Butler is a Vicksburg, Mississippi, native who went undrafted out of West Alabama but spent the past four seasons with the Patriots.\nButler's agent, Derek Simpson, told The Associated Press on Tuesday that Butler will sign the deal, which includes more than $30 million guaranteed, once free agency begins.\nButler started 48 of his 59 games and has eight career interceptions. He was the hero of New England's Super Bowl win after the 2014 season, intercepting a pass to seal the 28-24 victory over Seattle.\nThe New Orleans Saints pursued Butler as a restricted free agent last year, but the trade price was too high.\nThe cornerback was well-respected in the Patriots' locker room and played last season under a $3.9 million tender offer. After a slow start, he ended up playing 98 percent of New England's defensive snaps and finished the season with two interceptions.\nButler started the Patriots' first two playoff games before he was mysteriously benched for the Super Bowl. He played only one snap -- on special teams -- in New England's 41-33 loss to Philadelphia. Butler later denied any off-field misconduct, saying he never missed a curfew or do anything to hurt the Patriots' chances.\nHis two interceptions were the same number as fellow cornerback Stephon Gilmore, who was signed by the Patriots to a five-year, $65 million deal last spring.\nThe Titans signed Butler's former teammate, cornerback Logan Ryan, last season and needed help in the secondary to go along with cornerback Adoree Jackson, who started 16 games after being drafted 18th overall. Ryan wrote on Twitter earlier Tuesday that he was trying to recruit Butler to Tennessee.\nThe Titans ranked 13th in total defense and improved slightly against the pass, giving up 239.3 yards through the air to move from 30th in 2016 to 25th overall. General manager Jon Robinson got his start in the NFL as a scout with the Patriots.",

        "raw_content": "Black NewsLocal News\nJournalist Tamron Hall is unapologetically pro black\nEmmy award winner Tamron Hall, formerly of the Today Show, mesmerized the audience at the WPB Links, Incorporated, White Rose Luncheon at PGA National Resort in Palm Beach Gardens.\nPALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla. \u2013 Tamron Hall, the vivacious, Emmy award-winning journalist and former NBC \u201cToday Show\u201d co- host, is clearly living life on her own terms. Recently, she told the packed audience at the PGA National Resort in Palm Beach Gardens that there is no need to feel bad about her departure from the high-profile gig at NBC, where she became the first black woman to co-anchor the \u201cToday Show\u201d in the network\u2019s history. Hall has apparently moved on and is not looking back.\nHall was the guest speaker for the West Palm Beach chapter of the Links, Incorporated\u2019s 37th Annual White Rose Luncheon held at the PGA Resort on December 2. Her exit from NBC was deemed controversial because sources say she felt she was demoted after being bumped from the highly visible 9 a.m. time slot to make way for Megyn Kelly, the white news host who was hired after leaving Fox News amid sexual misconduct allegations. NBC gave Kelly a 9 a.m. talk show, booting Hall from her 9 a.m. co-host slot. Even the National Association for Black Journalists organization went to bat for Hall in the wake of the controversial move; but Hall decided to leave the network instead of playing second fiddle to Kelly, who left Fox News Channel after allegations she was sexually harassed by Fox News Chief, Roger Ailes.\nNBC brass said they were disappointed that Hall opted to leave the company, although it was stated she was informed when she was hired for the post that the 9 a.m. slot was not etched in stone.\nHall neither confirmed nor denied this at the luncheon.\nNonetheless, Hall says she has no desire to go back. \u2018I don\u2019t want to go back; I want to look forward!\u201d she said, comparing it to a relationship that you left and have no desire to return to.\nHall hinted there may be a book coming and it seems she has a lot to say.\nShe told the well-heeled crowd that she is unapologetically pro black and she makes no qualms about it.\n\u201cWhen you are unapologetically black it doesn\u2019t mean you have to diminish your light,\u201d said Hall.\n\u201cWe have to make them (other ethnic groups) hear our voices. When our (black) children are killed, they (other ethnicities) need to show up with us! I want to stand with my white sisters when they are sexually harassed, but I need them to stand with me for our causes too!\u201d\nHall said the black woman is undeniably special. \u201cThe power of black femininity is a lesson for the world. What we have running through our veins \u2013 it can\u2019t be duplicated. I call it the blessing of God.\u201d\nHall said she refuses to cower down to those who are threatened by her or other blacks. \u201cI\u2019m as passionate about us having a seat at every table. When we\u2019re in the room, we elevate the room. If they\u2019re threatened by us \u2013 so be it. They often want us to dim our light, just so they can shine,\u201d she said bluntly.\nHall, who is petite in stature, speaks with strength and power, which she said comes from her humble beginnings and her upbringing. \u201cMy mom is unapologetically pro black. After my birth, I was brought home to a shotgun shack in Texas. That humble place allowed me to be who I am today,\u201d she stated.\nThe crowd gave Hall a standing ovation in the wake of her speech. Afterwards she graciously took pictures with audience members.\nCo-chair of the event, Delores Oliver Calloway, said the speaker was forthright and dynamic. \u201cOur speaker was very forthright and transparent about her status in the media. Additionally, she was very open, honest and seemed to relate well to the audience.\u201d\nCalloway also said the banquet was excellent and those who attended seem to echo that sentiment. \u201cEveryone seemed to enjoy themselves and felt that the speaker really spoke to the audience and noted they could certainly relate to her,\u201d Calloway said.\nEach year the Links\u2019 West Palm Beach Chapter holds their White Rose Luncheon the first Saturday in December and usually sell out due to their outstanding service and dynamic speakers. The room was filled with dignitaries and noted individuals, among many other well-wishers who support the group each year. Hall, quipped that the audience was so well put together that she wanted to adopt them as her family!\nThe chapter gives out thousands of dollars in scholarships during the Spring.\nNext post Florida officer who saved Pulse shooting victim losing job\nPrevious post What now America, your values are askew?",

There was a grant opportunity available and I thought that praying and fasting about it would be a good thing.\nIt was, but not in the way I thought. I know that God does not want us to be in debt to others and I've read and like Dave Ramsey's philosophy about being debt free, so of course I thought prayer and fasting about this issue would be right up God's alley, so to speak, and was absolutely sure that God would answer as I expected.\nI was almost two weeks into the fast before I called to check on this grant and when I did, instead of finding the obstacle free path I was expecting I ran right into a brick wall. First, hospice employees are not eligible because hospice programs are not part of the grant. That knocked me out. Second, only direct service personnel are eligible. Since my husband is a supervisor that knocked him out.\nThe funny thing was I didn't get upset. Not once. I kept waiting for it. It should have been a huge disappointment, a ginormous let down, an insurmountable, king-sized, chocolate needing emotional episode for me.\nThere was only peace. Weird!\nAt that moment I could only smile and thank God for whatever plan he had for us because I knew that whatever it was it would be wonderful. Better than my own plan.\nIf anyone could have seen me at that moment they would have thought I'd gone round the bend. I probably had a stupid grin on my face but I'm telling you the peace of God was there. I had been so focused on Him, so immersed in His Word that I just knew it was the way things were supposed to be.\nGod answered \"NO\" and it was and still is fine. Are we still paying off student loans every month? Yep. Will that continue for the rest of our natural lives? That would be a distinct possibility. Are we okay with that? How can we not be? God blesses us and provides for us every moment of every day. We have never gone without anything we need. We are able to give to others when God brings opportunities. We are able to travel. Even if none of those things were possible it would still be okay.\nWhy didn't God answer this prayer like I expected? Did I pray the wrong way? I don't think so. Am I being punished? No. God doesn't work like that.\nSo why? I don't have the first clue. I may never know. What I do know is that God is perfect, his love for me is perfect and he never, ever makes mistakes.\nAs you prepare for your fast, consider the requests that you will bring before God. Are you prepared for him to answer in a way other than what you're expecting? If not, make that a part of your prayer. Ask him to keep you so focused on him that you know without a doubt that however he responds it is the perfect answer for you.\nDon't be afraid to ask whatever is on your heart. He already knows. Just ask him to help you be open to his will in all things. The most amazing thing about this incident for me is that it was such tangible evidence of God working in me to change me. I love that and that is what this fast is all about.\nWhat an awesome response, Sherri: \"How can we not be? God blesses us and provides for us every moment of every day.\" That renewed perspective directs so much of our thoughts and actions, doesn't it? Great reminder!",

        "raw_content": "Her Story: Lynn Cole Springer\nI grew up in rural Indiana, just east of Indianapolis. Even though I grew up in the church, when I was in High School, I met a man whom God would use to change my life. He was a student from Kentucky Christian College who had come to the church for a youth revival. There was something different about him. It took awhile, but I finally figured out it was Jesus. I saw Jesus living through this man's life in a way I had never seen before. I wanted more of whatever it was that he had... later I realized that what I really wanted was simply more of Jesus.\nAs my High School career drew to a close in 1979, I struggled with God for a time, regarding what direction my future would take. But finally I relented and enrolled at Kentucky Christian College in the Fall of 1980. I didn't know what I could do. I just knew I wanted to serve God. I only knew that if God could use me to impact one person the way that God had used another person to impact my life, then I could die happy.\nI attended Kentucky Christian University, graduating with a B.A. in Bible and Christian Education in 1984. My first area of ministry was on Long Island, New York, serving as Youth Pastor at the Port Jefferson Church of Christ for 3 years. It was a fruitful ministry. Nine kids from the youth group went to Bible College. However, during these years, I developed a desire to help hurting kids. I decided to go back to school, but could not afford to live on Long Island and go to graduate school at the same time. As I sought God's leading, an opportunity arose to work with a prison ministry back home in Indiana. In 1987, I returned, but not to the rural areas that had once been home. Living on the west side of Indianapolis, my life's calling was about to unfold and Shepherd's Heart Ministries, Inc. was born a couple of years later.\nMarion County Jail:\nI have been involved in several correctional institutions in a variety of ways. My primary place of service has been the Marion County Jail in Indianapolis. My main focus has always been, but not limited to, Juvenile Offenders. Indiana has a juvenile system that is separate from the adult system. But, at times, there are cases where juveniles are waived into the adult system due to the severity of the crimes. These are the kids who have captured my heart. There is an average of 30 juveniles boys at the jail at any given time, and once in awhile, we get a girl. These are the stories you hear on the news: murder, rape, robberies, gangs, drugs, etc. They will be tried in adult courts and, if convicted, sent to adult prisons to serve their time.\nMy responsibilities at the jail are to co-ordinate a Bible Study for the juveniles, as well as provide them with pastoral care. I am one of the few Volunteer Chaplains who has the highest level of clearance in the facility. I participate on the Disciplinary Hearing Board, help supervise other volunteer programs, helped train other volunteers and assist the Staff Chaplains in whatever way is necessary.\nThroughout the years, there have been various inmates that have come thru the Marion County Jail, with which I have maintained contact as they serve their sentences. I do this through written correspondence and periodic visits to the prisons.\nOut of Jail:\nThere are others who were released from the jail, and with whom I have maintained relationships, continually trying to be a godly influence. I have developed a level of credibility with many of these people that allow me access to many areas of the ghetto, to which many (especially white) people are simply not welcome. There are countless \"thugs\" and \"gang bangers\" who affectionately refer to me as \"Mama Lynn\" and to my husband, Shawn, as \"Pops\".\nIndiana Girls School:\nUntil 2008, I was a Volunteer Chaplain at, what was formerly called, The Indiana Girls School. This was a short term correctional facility for girls who were incarcerated in the state's juvenile system. The length of stay for these girls was typically 3-12 months. I was the designated chaplain for one housing unit, which held approximately 45 girls.\nDuring the years that I was a Volunteer Chaplain at IGS, I also had a high degree of clearance there along with a variety of responsibilities. Over the years, I provided Pastoral Care, coordinated a group of volunteers for a bi-weekly Bible Study, and participated on the Administrative team of Cottage 6, my designated unit. I participated on an Advisory Board for the Community Involvement Coordinator, assisted in writing a Volunteer Handbook, led a grief support group, planned and led Worship Services and, again, assisted the Staff Chaplain in whatever ways were necessary. I was a Volunteer Chaplain at IGS for 21 years.\nIn 2008, the Indiana Department of Corrections moved some of the prison populations around. The juvenile females were removed from their long time facility on Indianapolis' Westside and moved two hours south, to a new facility in Madison, Indiana. The Indiana Women's Prison was then transferred their old facility. It is now an Adult Women's Medium and Maximum Security Prison.\nIndiana Women's Prison:\nAfter the moves, it was a slow process becoming involved in the new prison. However, those doors are now swinging open. I am leading a Tuesday night Bible Study and providing pastoral care to the women. The chaplain and I are discussing more ways in which I can be involved in the ministry to these women, including possibly leading a Bereavement Group.\nOther Areas of Ministry:\nIn the past, I was a Religious Volunteer at the Indiana Reformatory for 13 years. This is a men's maximum security prison. At this prison, I simply participated in Worship Services, a Monday Night Bible Study, visitation, and I sponsored Christmas Dinners for the men who participated in these programs, along with their families.\nI have been an active member of Chapel Rock Christian Church since moving to Indianapolis in 1987. I was involved with the youth program as the Director of Youth Missions for four years. This, then innovative, program involved leading and coordinating missions trips for the teens, both domestic and foreign.\nIn 1999, I received my Master of Arts in Pastoral Care and Counseling from Christian Theological Seminary, in Indianapolis. I have also received chaplaincy training from the International Conference of Police Chaplains, and the American Chaplaincy Training School.\nMy heart and passion has always been for people, especially teenagers, who are lost, alone, and without hope. I love and value these people deeply and want them to know, beyond all doubt, that they are not forgotten. I want them to know that they are loved and valued deeply by the One who died and lives again, to redeem them, as He alone, can give their lives meaning in the midst of the mess in which they live.",

        "raw_content": "Book Reviews: 11 - 15 of 2018\nThe Queen of Spades is a classic Russian short story. A young man learns of a woman who was told the perfect combination of cards to play to make her fortune and save her from ruin. The woman is now old, so the young man starts making overtures of love to the old woman's companion. Once he gains access into the house, he surprises the old woman and tries to threaten her into telling him the combination. Much to his dismay, the old woman dies from shock and he is left with guilt and no winning cards. After paying his respects at her funeral, the old woman's ghost comes to him in the night and tells him the cards and how to use them as well as making him agree to the terms that were handed down. The very next night he tempts fate and tries to play the cards to a rather interesting outcome.\nI am surprised at how much I enjoyed this book. It's a quick story, but it really is an interesting idea and it really could apply to any period in history. This was my first experience reading Pushkin and it definitely made me want to read more. I give this book 4 out of 5 stars.\nThe Portable Dorothy Parker is a great collection of her work. The book is made up of various short stories and poems as well as a few articles. The overall tone was snarky and poignant. I really loved The Big Blonde - I think that was the most touching story in the bunch, interesting that it is based off her own experience. Miss Parker is able to look at the women of her time and show them in a sarcastic way that they probably didn't see themselves. The poetry is admittedly of a style our time hasn't really been taught to appreciate. Also the poems were mostly about how death would be, so not something everyone can relate to but an interesting window into that way of thinking. As this is a short story and poem collection, you can just keep listening through anything you don't love and something new will come up soon. It's worth the read for sure. I give this book 4 out of 5 stars.\nState of Wonder is the story of Marina Singh, a medical doctor turned pharmaceutical worker who finds herself on an adventure in the Amazonian rain forest. The company Marina works for has financed a new miracle fertility drug and they need someone to go down to Brazil and check the progress so they have a timeline for a return on their investment. Marina's lab partner went first, but when the company receives word that he died of a fever they ask Marina to go and find out what happened. Marina finds herself in a remote Amazonian village with her old college professor and a tribes-people whose women are able to get pregnant into their 70s. Marina assists in the research while trying to learn more about her deceased partner as well as helping the local tribes with medical complaints so the other researchers can complete their work. Eventually Marina learns to true point of the research and what it can mean for the rest of the world before a pretty interesting twist at the end.\nI really enjoyed this book. The idea is pretty crazy - a fertility drug that could let women of any age have a child - yet at the same time feels fairly plausible in our modern world. The book is very well written and I was able to just focus on the plot unfolding. I'll confess that I wanted to read this book after Liz Gilbert's mention of it in Big Magic - I had to see what this story was that the two authors were both inspired by. I was much happier with this book than the other Ann Patchett I read a few years ago. I definitely can recommend this one though - I constantly wanted to know what would happen next. I give this book 4 out of 5 stars.\nTil We Have Faces is a retelling of the myth of Cupid and Psyche. I was intrigued about this book when I found out C.S. Lewis felt this was his best work. The book gives a different take on the myth we are taught, giving the whole story through the eyes of one of her sisters. In this tale the oldest sister loves and raises Psyche after her mother dies. As Psyche gets older, her beauty grows to the extent that the people in her kingdom believe that she is a God. Eventually the town decides to sacrifice her in hopes of appeasing their God and removing their famine and other hardships. They chain her up on a mountain and leave her for the God, assuming she will soon be dead and not worry about her any further. Her sister is stricken by the loss of her favorite sister, so she goes to collect Psyche's remains for a proper burial only to discover that her body is not there. Psyche appears and explains that she is now the wife of a God, but she does not know which one because she is forbidden to look at him. Her sister thinks Psyche is crazy and comes up with a plan to help her see \"the truth\". She brings an oil lamp the next time she visits and makes Psyche swear she will look at the God, thinking this will show that the God is a monster or not a god at all. Things don't turn out how she anticipates and she has to live with this for the rest of her life.\nOverall this was an interesting idea and it definitely humanizes the classic myth. The original story has both sisters jealous of Psyche's husband so they maliciously conspire to wreck things, and I can appreciate this telling much better. This method feels more natural - that the motives are all in the best interest of the victim but that they go horribly wrong. I think this version makes the story more palette-able even for a reader that is not interested in Greek mythology. I give this book 4 out of 5 stars.\nSecondhand Time should be required reading. The book is made up of interviews with various Russians who lived through the Soviet regime, covering everything from the revolution to perestroika to the modern switch to capitalism. There are those who miss Stalin, those who hate him, and those who worked with him. There are true Russians as well as those from other Soviet states like Azerbaijan, Ukraine, Georgia, and many more. Alexievich interviews the young and the old alike, which comes across as the indoctrinated and the disillusioned. This book shows the true mix of feelings on the Soviets and opens up about things I never learned about before I read this book. Some of the tragedies people endured were truly heartbreaking, yet they still continue on in a stoic and accepting manner. If you have any interest in the state of modern Russia and how its recent history has brought it to where it is now, you should read this book. It was excellent. I give this book 5 out of 5 stars.\nLabels: alexander sergeievich pushkin, ann patchett, book, C.S. Lewis, dorothy parker, review, svetlana alexievich",

        "raw_content": "A letter from the writer/director\nDear Potential Supporter,\nAs many of you know, I have spent the past three years working towards my MFA in Film at Columbia University, one of the top film schools in the world. Columbia has a long history of success in independent film and is beginning to make its mark in the larger commercial world. Films such as The Hurt Locker, The Kids Are Allright, and Adventureland are just a few of the recent films made by Columbia Alumni that have gained accolades in the public eye. Students\u2019 thesis films go on to screen and win awards at prestigious festivals such as Sundance, Cannes, Berlin, SeattleInternational Film Festival, and South by Southwest.\nI am currently in pre-production for my own thesis film, Sin Matador, which will begin shooting June, 2012. It\u2019s a short comedy about a couple whose long overdue romantic dinner plans are foiled when they become entangled in an illegal, underground bullfight in the basement of their Manhattan luxury apartment building. It is lighthearted and fun, but also explores deeper themes of modern life, communication, and relationships.\nSin Matador began as an image \u2013 a man coming home and encountering a fighting bull and its handlers in an elevator \u2013 and grew into this very funny film about a nice couple facing the challenges of adjusting to the absurdity of living in New York City. In many ways it\u2019s about my personal experience moving from Seattle to New York - an impossibly large, diverse, and often overwhelming city. It\u2019s a modern comedy with that strives to live up to its roots and influences: the classic physical comedy of Charlie Chaplin and Buster Keaton, the wit and pacing of Howard Hawks, Frank Capra and the screwball comedies of the 40s and 50s, the visual humor in Jean Pierre Jenet\u2019s Delicatessen and Amelie, and the incredible character humor of Emir Kusturika\u2019s Underground and Black Cat White Cat.\nStaging a bullfight in a basement, and filming it safely and beautifully, has some pretty concrete financial demands. Sin Matador is by far my largest production to date and by far the most exciting. With a budget just north of $35,000, lifting this project off the ground is a mammoth task. Fortunately, many hands make light work. The production has the enthusiastic support of Columbia faculty and peers, talented professionals waiving thousands of dollars of their fees,and Steiner Studios, New York\u2019s largest films studio, which has awarded us their professional equipment and lighting package.\nAnd we still have a long way to go.\nSo in my journey as a director the time has come to enter the world of film financing. Like so many who have come before me, I\u2019m turning to my friends and family to lend a hand. As I cross the threshold from student to an early-career filmmaker I hope you see this as an opportunity to support me as a member of your community and support a promising script because you want to see it on the screen.\nIt will be with a warm heart, lifelong gratitude, and bit of a wink that I continue to value your friendship as a \u201cfriend and financier.\u201d\nZach Carver\nWriter/Director Sin Matador\nMFA Film Candidate Columbia University 2012\nDonate now with Fractured Atlas!",

That\u2019s the aim of Chloe Valdary, founder of Allies of Israel at the University of New Orleans, which held its first major event on Jan. 28.\nDaniel Pipes, executive director of the Middle East Forum and Campus Watch, was the keynote speaker for the \u201cDeclare Your Freedom\u201d event at the UNO amphitheater. Also speaking were Evan Sayet from the Heritage Foundation, Al Sonja Schmidt, WRNO talk show host Denny Schaeffer, Rabbi Yossi Nemes from the Chabad Center of Metairie, and Tulane University for Israel President Yoni Kaplan.\nKermit Ruffins started the event with the National Anthem, and Mobile jazz pianist Stephen Roberts also performed.\nWhile the event drew about 100 UNO and Tulane students and community members, the event also attracted about 20 on the other side of the issue.\nBefore the event, the Driftwood, student newspaper at UNO, quoted Muslim Student Association member Sarah Abdelaziz as saying Americans should be pro-Israel \u201cmaybe if they support violence against innocent civilians.\u201d\nThe Palestine Solidarity Committee of New Orleans showed up to distribute flyers, including information on Sabra hummus, which is available on campus and is a target of boycotts by anti-Israel groups.\nPalestine Solidarity Committee member Olga Rocheeva told FightBack News that \"the rally was a mousetrap set up to incite a provocation from us.\"\nValdary shrugged off the protestors, saying they \u201cwalked in, held up a sign that said, \"Don't forget about the Palestinians\" and then walked out.\u201d\nIn her opening remarks, Valdary (right) compared the Boycott-Divestment-Sanctions movement to anti-Jewish boycotts from the 1930s. \u201cThe end result of this is genocide,\u201d she said.\nOn July 9, 2005, the BDS movement started, soon followed by \u201cIsrael Apartheid Week\u201d demonstrations at campuses around the world. She noted that the common chant at pro-Palestinian rallies is \"from the river to the sea, Palestine shall be free,\" meaning the conquest of all of Israel, not just the post-1967 territories.\n\u201cHow far will you let it go?\u201d Valdary asked. She continued by asking what those in attendance would do if a group claimed the \u201cHolocaust never happened, what if they denied to your face that 6 million Jews were killed\u201d and called Hitler one of their heroes. \u201cDon\u2019t think it could happen? It happened right here, at this institution. Last November, on the day called diversity day,\u201d she said.\nThis day wasn\u2019t just to support Israel, but to stand with the Jewish people. \u201cAnti-Semitism is rising. Jew-hatred is spreading.

        "raw_content": "The Economic History of Madras (Chennai)\nThe City of Madras,\nNow Called Chennai\nThe British East India Company began establishing a presence in the Coromandel Coast of the Bay of Bengal in South India in the 17th century. The Company obtained permission from local rulers to build a fort there. The Company chose a site north of the mouth of the Cooum River where a fishing village called Madraspatnam was located. The fort was called Fort St. George.\nThere were other villages such as Mylapore in the area which were temple towns. The area was a low lying plain no more than 23 feet above sea level. Rice was the major product but there was cotton growing and weavers to convert the cotton into cloth. The East India Company encouraged the weavers and merchants to settle north of the fort. Fort St. George was occupied by British merchants and became known as White Town. The area were the Tamil merchants and weavers settled became known as Black Town. Later the area was named George Town.\nThe city that grew up around Fort St. George became known as Madras after the fishing village of Madraspatnam that was originally on the site. The Tamil speakers however called the city Chennaipatnam and later Chennai.\nThe city grew and the British took control of the region and all of India. The region was for a long period of time known as Madras State. After independence it became known as Tamil Nadu.\nAfter the East India Company establish complete control of the region some British merchants built garden houses in districts southwest and west of the fort (Nungambakkam, Adyar and Kilpauk).\nOver time there developed ethno-religious-linguistic enclaves in the city. Mylapore and Triplicane became Brahmin. Chepauk to the south of the island formed by the branching of the Cooum River became Muslim. Royapuram to the north of the fort beyond Black Town (George Town) became an area of Christian settlement. West of Royapuram in an area known as Washermanpet became an area where weavers lived. Weavers also lived in the Chintadripet area to the southwest of the fort and beyond the island in the Cooum River.\nIn modern times an industrial park was created at Guindy, about four miles southwest of the fort beyond the Adyar River.\nSome of the districts of early Madras\nDemographics of Madras (Chennai)\nThe Linguistic Composition\nof the Population of Madras,\nLanguage Proportion\nTamil 72%\nTelugu 14%\nMalayam 3%\nUrdu 5%\nTamil, Telugu and Malayam are languages in the Dravidian family.

        "raw_content": "Published in Duluthian Magazine, March/April 2015\nFew phrases in the English language have the stopping power of those two words. In our society, it seems almost everyone has a story of a friend or loved one who has had to deal with cancer in some form. According to the National Cancer Institute, there are more than 100 different types of cancer, originating in virtually every organ in the human body. In the United States, there will be an estimated 1.6 million new cases of cancer in 2015, 29,000 of which will occur in Minnesota. Dr. Basem Goueli, MD, PhD, Medical Director of St. Luke\u2019s Regional Cancer Center, says that while those statistics are useful in providing a sense of the impact of cancer, \u201cwe treat every patient uniquely, as cancer therapy is highly nuanced, and every patient is different.\u201d\nThe role of clinical trials\nOne of the most powerful tools that an oncologist has in the fight against cancer is access to the newest experimental cancer drugs. These drugs are rapidly being developed and tested through a multi-step process called clinical trials, which are stringently controlled, and designed to test the efficacy of new drugs on specific types of cancer. \u201cThe idea behind a clinical trial is to see if a drug will benefit patients,\u201d said Dr. Goueli. \u201cThese drugs can prove instrumental in a patient\u2019s fight against cancer; they can sometimes provide hope where there was none.\u201d\nThe challenge, says Dr. Goueli, is convincing pharmaceutical companies to allow your center to participate in their trials. \u201cIn order for a cancer center to conduct a trial, it needs to have a strong research staff, a clinical trial infrastructure, a significant patient population, and an oncology team with a proven record that pharmaceutical companies can trust. It takes an enormous amount of effort to ensure that all the protocols are being met, and that requires a high level of organization and competency.\u201d\nThere are thousands of clinical trials being conducted at major medical centers throughout the country, but it is unusual for a health system the size of St. Luke\u2019s to have as robust a clinical trial program as it does. St. Luke\u2019s Regional Cancer Center has been able to bring several of the most promising cancer therapeutics to northern Minnesota because of its research department\u2014Whiteside Institute for Clinical Research\u2014trial infrastructure, well-coordinated scientific and Institutional Review Board processes, relationship with pharmaceutical companies and talented Hematology and Oncology staff.\n\u201cWe actually have an advantage over larger, health systems, because our size enables us to more efficiently recruit and initiate clinical trials in many ways,\u201d said Dr. Goueli. \u201cWe are very selective in the trials that we participate in, as we strive to recruit only the most promising clinical trials based on our understanding of the mechanisms of the drugs used, and the diseases they are being used to treat. Accordingly, we currently have excellent clinical trials in leukemias, and in cancers involving the breast, prostate, colon, brain, lung and ovary.\u201d\nClinical trials have and will continue to play a central role in the treatment of cancer patients. \u201cI am very proud of the fact that we have the most promising clinical trial base in northern Minnesota,\u201d said Dr. Goueli, \u201cfor we are constantly working with pharmaceutical companies to bring the most exciting cancer therapies to our center for our patients, as they deserve nothing less.\u201d\nIn addition to clinical trials, St. Luke\u2019s Regional Cancer Center is also employing genomic and molecular profiling of tumors to treat cancer patients. \u201cWe firmly believe that genomic and molecular profiling allows us to create a more customized treatment plan for each individual patient, and can provide us with additional attractive treatment options for patients,\u201d said Dr. Goueli. \u201cWe recognize that cancer care is changing at a breakneck pace, and we are constantly evolving to ensure that we are at the cutting edge of cancer treatment.\u201d\nCompassion and excellence\nEffectively treating cancer is a balance of science and empathy. \u201cAt St. Luke\u2019s Regional Cancer Center we treat our patients as though they are our fathers, mothers, brothers, sisters or children,\u201d said Dr. Goueli. \u201cOur patients consistently get the best of our hearts and the best of our minds, and that\u2019s not rhetoric. Our patients have a level of accessibility to their physician that is largely unprecedented, and we are very proud of that fact.\u201d\nBELOW: Dr. Basem Goueli, Medical Director of St. Luke\u2019s Regional Cancer Center, talks with patient Taire Suliin in the Cancer Center\u2019s infusion therapy clinic\nNew tool unveiled in breast cancer battle\n23-Oct-2013 By St. Luke's, Duluth MN\nSt. Luke's Regional Cancer Center Welcomes Dr. Homam Alkaied\nTaking Coverage from Skin Cancer",

        "raw_content": "Home House Cleaning Service Free House Cleaning Service Business Strategy Questionnaire 5.5 Public Relations Questionnaire\n5.5 Public Relations Questionnaire\nWhat is Public Relations and how is it important to a small business like Spotless Homes Inc.?\nMost businesses have to deal with the public at large. How they communicate and deal with the public is known as public relations. You may think that public relations is a trivial part of a business operations but in actuality it is very important. When dealing with the public who in the end are ones that endorse your product or service, you have to be cognizant that the image you build for yourself can make you or break you and thus it is very important that you place attention to that when you communicate with the public.\nPublic Relations should not be looked at through the narrow lens of a large company PR machine trying to smooth over potential problems. We recommend that Public Relations (PR) looked at in the context of how every communication with a firm's customers is handled. Even if you are speaking casually with a client you are actually conducting a mini public relations campaign. Every time you have a touch point with the client, you have a potential opportunity to deliver a positive public relations (PR) message.\nWhat are examples of Public Relations (PR) in action?\nA great example of PR in action is when things don't go well for a business. For example if you are a producer of canned goods and one of your shipment of canned goods turns out to be of poor quality resulting in some unhappy customers, your public relations communication could very quickly turn the negative publicity arising from such an incident into an opportunity to present a positive image by apologizing for the mishap and offering a full refund to any clients affected. If you are a mortgage broker and a client calls you up after a lenghty and troublesome loan process to express their dissatisfaction, you could quickly turn that into an opportunity by apologizing to the client and perhaps sending them out a gift basket or a small refund of their application fee to show that you care about them and then following up and asking for referrals!\nWhat is a good PR strategy for a small business like Spotless Homes Inc.?\nWe always advise our business partners and clients that successful public relations begins with keeping the client as the focus of the entire process. What we are saying here is that as long as you have a strong belief that clients come first, that every thing you do should ultimately be for the benefit of your client. Having a strong client focus ensures that you will always be on track with your public relations and never have to worry about having communicated something that could hurt your relationship with your client.\nWhat is an example of bad Public Relations?\nAny public relations effort that is not good is by definition bad. There are plenty of examples in recent history of what constitutes a bad public relations campaign - the most common has to do with businesses that stumbled resulting in a bad experience for their clients during the use of the product or service - and this was followed up by the company refusing to do anything about it. We all know that there are times that clients can be very demanding but as the old adage in the business world states - the customer is always right!\nWhat if the benefit of public relations to our customers?\nThe greatest advantage of a positive client focused public relations strategy is that it leaves the customers and clients of the business feeling very satisfied with the commitment that the business has towards them and their best interest. Clients must believe that you as the owner of a small business like Spotless Homes Inc. have their best interest at heart and by constantly having a positive client focused public relations strategy you will be able to remind them of just that. Clients who feel well served will invariably become the best spokespeople for your business and will want to pass the word along to their friends and family. This is the basis for getting new prospects and returned customers and that is how a business grows and sustains itself.\nDo small business owners like Anthony Cruz need to hire a public relations firm?\nNot everybody can afford a public relations firm. If you are a small business with a limited budget you will have to be your own PR firm. Very large companies have staff that deal with public relations, mid-sized businesses may choose to hire a third party PR firm to handle all their public relations. Small business owners also have the added advantage of now being able to use the web to make online news releases using PR firms that specialize in distributing PR newsletters online.\n<a href=\"http://www.smallbusinessplanresources.com/industries/7/House-Cleaning-Service-Questionnaire/Public-Relations-7Q\">5.5 Public Relations Questionnaire</a>",

        "raw_content": "When a seat back is reclined, the seat belt becomes much less effective, if not completely useless\nTake a minute and think how many times you have been a passenger in a car, wearing your seat belt, and decided to lay your seat back to take a nap. This is a very common practice. However, by simply reclining your seat, you are putting your life at risk.\nWhen a seat back is reclined, the standard seat belt becomes much less effective, if not completely useless, because the shoulder harness of the belt moves away from the body. People do not realize or understand that the more space between the seat belt and a person\u2019s body, the greater risk of death or serious injury in an accident. The seat belt is designed to be worn snugly against the body in order to couple the body to the seat to ride down the forces of an accident safely.\nAutomobile manufacturers have been well aware of the dangers of reclining seats for nearly four decades. They know that three-point restraints offer good protection only if worn properly. An occupant who wears a seat belt while his seat is reclined is not centered in the belt, rendering the belt ineffective for spreading crash forces over the body. Protection offered by any type of seat belt is therefore compromised when the seat is reclined, presenting a potentially dangerous combination in a moving vehicle. Although some vehicle owner\u2019s manuals warn of the dangers of reclined seat backs in moving vehicles, the warnings do not state specifically what degree of recline is dangerous.\nrecent seat back lawsuits\nA Jacksonville, Florida jury recognized this hidden danger and held Ford accountable by awarding $16.9 million to a young college student who was rendered a paraplegic in an accident. The student was a belted passenger who had reclined her seat back in a Ford Windstar. During the trip, the Windstar was involved in a low impact collision. Because the seat was reclined, her seat belt did not hold her in place. As a result, this young college student was rendered a paraplegic in what was a very minor accident.\nAnother jury in Maryland awarded $59 million to a belted passenger in a Toyota vehicle who was also riding with his seat reclined. The car was involved in a frontal collision. During the collision, the belted passenger flew forward at the time of the impact. It resulted in the amputation of both of the passenger\u2019s legs. Both of these cases spotlight this dangerous practice that automobile manufacturers have known about for decades.\ndangers of reclining seat backs\nPeople are being needlessly injured and killed as a result of the automobile industry\u2019s inaction on this subject. The industry knows that the motoring public does not understand or recognize the danger of reclining the seat while the vehicle is in motion. The industry knows that millions of families drive many millions of miles on the road every year. The industry also knows that some occupants in its vehicles will recline their seats to take naps, and by doing so, those occupants are all at great risk of serious injury or death in an accident.\nYet, the automobile manufacturers turn a blind eye to this danger even though there are simple approaches they could take to educate the public and prevent such needless injuries and deaths each year.\nDo you have a reclining seat back claim?\nIf your loved one has suffered a serious injury or death as a result of a reclining seat back injury, you may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses, loss of wages, and pain and suffering.",

I was a bit taken aback at that statement only because I have been writing about that particular subject for the last six years.\nI have to agree with that young woman who made that statement, but I don\u2019t believe for a minute that \u201cWe all understand\u201d. In fact, I believe that most of us in this country don\u2019t understand how political campaigns as they are conducted in the United States has, for all intents and purposes, become so expensive that politicians have sold their souls in order to win elections.\nIt may be true that the American people realize the fact that it takes money to run a political campaign, but I don\u2019t believe they understand how important this funding really is. According to the Center for Responsive Politics from their website Opensecrets.org; \u201cBundlers are people with friends in high places who, after bumping against personal contribution limits, turn to those friends, associates, and, well, anyone who's willing to give, and deliver the checks to the candidate in one big \"bundle\u201d.\nEven though these donors direct more money to the candidates than anyone else, disclosure can be spotty, with Obama and McCain posting bundlers by ranges with the top ranges being simply \"$500,000 or more.\" Together, 536 elites have directed at least $75,750,000 to McCain, and 560 have gathered at least $76,500,000 for Obama.\nJust that one segment accounted for $152,250,000 for both candidates! Looking at Obama\u2019s funds, lawyers and lobbyists accounted for 16.1 million dollars, so much for the claim that he didn\u2019t take money from \u201cspecial interests\u201d.\nObama\u2019s biggest contributor after the University of California was Goldman Sachs. Why is it that I\u2019m not surprised? In the top twenty donors were Citigroup, Morgan-Stanley, J.P. Morgan Chase, and UBS AG. One only has to reflect on the financial bail-out of Wall Street to understand that they made a hell of an investment.\nWhy am I bringing up old history? Well, I\u2019m hoping that what I\u2019m writing about may cause some of you to agree with that young woman on C-Span. Campaign finance IS that elephant in the living room. Everyday people like you and I need to remember this. When issues like extending the Bush tax cuts or a debate on corporate tax cuts comes along, we need to remember just who it is that the politicians need to payback Mussolini once remarked that fascism could be called \"corporatism\". We are in the process of becoming a fascist state, if we're not there already.\nThe Supreme Court has made things untenable. The ruling that allows corporations to put as much money as they wish into campaigns has caused a total disconnect between average Americans and the political system. When the Supreme Court made their decision, did you hear your representatives in Washington complaining? I only remember a brief (very brief) objection from President Obama. This was a telling moment; you would like to believe that something of this magnitude would garner loud protests from the \u201crepresentatives of the people\u201d, that they would bring it up at every opportunity and try to legislate against that kind of money in the election process. Their silence is deafening.\nI\u2019ve written about this before and I\u2019ll write about it again. Until corporate money and special interest money is taken out of the political campaigns, or at least reduced, it will be the interests of the citizenry that will suffer. We need public financing for federal office seekers and debates financed by public television. The only way we are going to make this happen is a complete overhaul of the campaign finance system. We also need an amendment to the Constitution that will once and for all remove corporate \u201cperson-hood\u201d\nThe idea that corporations are \u201cpeople\u201d is patently ridiculous. Corporations are responsible to the shareholders, not the American nation. The corporations will support the politician that is best for their bottom line, not who is best for the country. Removing corporations from politics doesn\u2019t mean that they won\u2019t have representation; the people that run them and work for them have their individual votes. Thus, they ARE represented. Corporate person-hood is nothing but a sham foisted on the American people.\nNothing will change in Washington until the American people address this intolerable situation. This issue is the root cause of the legal bribery that fuels the political theater we see every day in Congress. Unless we demand campaign finance reform, the politicians will continue to legislate for the corporations and the banks. In fact, nothing is possible without CFR. As long as the corporations control who receives the money for their political campaigns, Congress will not be looking after the taxpayers. The wars will continue, single payer health care will never happen and the military industrial complex will continue to run this nation.\nWe have just witnessed the largest transfer of wealth in this nation\u2019s history happen right under our noses. The majority of Americans screamed bloody murder yet the bailout of Wall Street happened anyway. Where is it written that the taxpayer should be responsible for bankers, insurance companies and automakers that got caught \u201cgaming the system\u201d? The money that the taxpayers spent to keep these corporations solvent could have gone into infrastructure and other projects to address chronic unemployment. We saw the banks sit on the bail-out money or watched them invest it overseas and yet even now the government is thinking about a second bail-out!\nIt\u2019s not difficult to predict what the politicians will do. One merely needs to see who is funding their campaigns. I predicted that Obama would follow in Bush\u2019s footsteps; I only had to follow the money. We no longer have a democratic republic, we have a corporate state. This won\u2019t change until we remove the root cause of corporatism, the financing of political campaigns. It\u2019s that simple.",

        "title": "America Revealed: \"Deficit Hawks\" Support Costly Expansion of War on Terror",
        "raw_content": "\"Deficit Hawks\" Support Costly Expansion of War on Terror\nSenior Associate, Human Rights First\u2019s Law and Security Program\nIf you dropped in from outer space to watch the House Armed Services Committee debate the latest defense spending bill on Wednesday morning, you could be excused for not realizing that this country is facing a budget crisis.\nThe United States is expected to hit its debt ceiling this month, and some leaders in Congress are refusing to lift it on the grounds that the federal government spends too much and is growing too big.\nAs House Armed Services Committee Chairman Howard \"Buck\" McKeon has complained: \"Democrats simply do not care how large the deficit grows.\"\nBut somehow, that issue just isn't coming up among McKeon and his usual \"deficit hawk\" supporters when it comes to defense spending. One representative after another argues for this or that fighter jet engine or firing range or other pet project that the U.S. military has said it doesn't need, while looming over the entire budgeting process is the whopping amendment to the National Defense Authorization Act, proposed by McKeon, that includes a new and expanded declaration of war.\nThe government doesn't need that, either.\nThe United States has already spent more than $1.283 trillion on military operations since the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, according to the Congressional Research Service. With the orchestrator of the attacks dead and a federal shutdown looming if Congress can't get a new budget in order, it seems an odd time to be expanding the \"war on terror\" beyond Iraq and Afghanistan, to reach potentially anywhere in the world that the President decides it should. Yet that's exactly what McKeon's \"Detainee Security Act\" (now incorporated into the NDAA) would do.\nThese wars started, of course, as a response to the September 11 attacks. The Authorization for the Use of Military Force enacted by Congress in 2001 allowed the U.S. military to wage war 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...\"\nThat has come to mean, and repeatedly been defined as, an authorization to use military force against al Qaeda, the Taliban and \"associated forces.\"\nSo why is McKeon now arguing that we need a new law to authorize an even broader use of force?\nMcKeon (who also supports development of the GE/Rolls Royce F-136 Jet engine that the Pentagon says it doesn't need) explains the new bill as merely affirming \"that the United States is engaged in an armed conflict with al Qaeda, the Taliban and associated forces pursuant to the Authorization for Use of Military Force from 2001.\"\nBut if that's all it's doing, then why is the new bill necessary? The AUMF of 2001 already provides that. The only possible justification for proposing a new AUMF is to expand the \"war on terror\" to be just that -- not only a war against the groups and individuals related to the September 11 attacks, but a \"war\" on terrorism more broadly -- wherever it is found and regardless of how \"terrorism\" is defined. McKeon recently gave us a hint of where he thinks a new war could reach, saying that \"the threats posed by al Qaeda cells in Yemen and Africa underscore the evolving and continuing nature of the terrorist threat to the United States.\"\nIn fact, the bill would also authorize the use of military force domestically, if \"terrorists\" are found here at home.\nExpanding the war now is foolhardy. And, despite its supporters' purported interest in reducing the federal deficit, it will be very costly.\nWhat the McKeon bill would do is grant the president authority to bypass Congress in expanding the war against any \"associated groups\" he deems dangerous, regardless of what, if anything, they've done to the United States. As a practical matter, it would be a license to launch attacks in Yemen, Somalia, Pakistan or anywhere else in the world where the U.S. military believes insurgents may be.\nThough the language differences are subtle, the McKeon legislation makes clear that the president would have the authority to detain \"belligerents\" -- including but not limited to those currently defined by the Obama administration as detainable. That means that McKeon and his co-sponsors are contemplating the use of military force against some broader category of undefined \"belligerents\" somewhere in the world who are not now detainable in our current state of war, but would be under an expanded one.\nThat's raised alarm bells among House Democrats. In a letter sent on Tuesday, nearly three dozen of them called on McKeon to withdraw the provision from the National Defense Authorization Act, or NDAA, and at least hold hearings on the matter before a vote on what they called \"a serious ... departure from current counterterrorism policy and practice.\"\nAmong the many troubling aspects of the Detainee Security Act, they wrote, are \"provisions that expand the war against terrorist organizations on a global basis\" that could reach far beyond Afghanistan.\nThat war has dragged on for almost ten years, and after the demise of Osama bin Laden, as the United States prepares for withdrawal from Afghanistan, the Detainee Security Act purports to expand the \"armed conflict\" against the Taliban, al Qaeda, and \"associated forces\" without limit. By declaring a global war against nameless individuals, organizations, and nations \"associated\" with the Taliban and al Qaeda, as well as those playing a supporting role in their efforts, the Detainee Security Act would appear to grant the President near unfettered authority to initiate military action around the world without further congressional approval. Such authority must not be ceded to the President without careful deliberation from Congress.\nFor Congressional representatives so critical of the president in other contexts, particularly budgetary matters, it's hard to understand why they'd want to do hand him that sort of unfettered power.\nAs Rep. Mo Brooks of Alabama, a co-sponsor of the McKeon never-ending-war bill, said after President Obama agreed to military action in Libya: \"I was very disappointed in the way in which the president has done this. I'm going to be very curious to see where he is going to get the funds to pay for it.\"\nRep. Mike Coffman of Colorado, another co-sponsor of the expanded \"war on terror\" bill, has put it this way:\n\"Members of Congress and the president owe it to the American people to be honest with them about the extent of our fiscal problems and offer real solutions that don't kick the proverbial can down the road.\"\nIt's not clear how these lawmakers have convinced themselves that declaring an unlimited war on all unnamed enemies of the United States of the president's choosing is going to do that.",

        "title": "CBD vs Psychosis: Resetting Brain Function? \u2013 Your Drug Detox Guide",
        "raw_content": "Home > Blog > CBD vs Psychosis: Resetting Brain Function?\nWhile cannabis remains a highly controversial drug, its constituents being extensively researched are gaining ground in the medical field. It is especially true of cannabidiol, or, as it is often abbreviated, CBD. It has recently been linked to a range of positive effects on the body, and the brain and nervous system as a whole are affected as well. A new study also suggests that it could be used to treat patients with psychosis.\nCBD has another curious function \u2013 it is capable of reducing the effect of THC, the cannabis compound responsible for the notorious psychoactive effect marijuana produces. However, it is not the only thing it does: a new research suggests this property can also affect the human mind and aid in treatment of patients suffering from schizophrenia. It is another piece of evidence supporting the theory that cannabidiol has a wide range of effects on the nervous system: the evidence accumulated enabled the government to license it to be used as part of treatment of children with epilepsy.\nA team of scientists from King\u2019s College London has recently reported that as little as a single dose of CBD can trigger changes in brain activity and reduce the symptoms associated with psychosis.\nIn most cases, patients with psychosis resort to treatments which have been in use since the 1950s. Most of them act as dopamine receptor inhibitors. Dopamine does not work as intended in those with psychosis, and that is why interfering with its activity may have a beneficial effect on such patients. However, not all patients respond to the treatment, because dopamine is not the only neurotransmitter that can fail to work properly and thus contribute to development of psychosis.\nThe new findings reported by KCL show that CBD can provide an alternative that has nothing to do with dopamine. Instead, it affects the endocannabinoid system, altering brain activity and thus reducing psychosis symptoms \u2013 without getting high, as CBD does not cause hallucinations or similar symptoms.\nIn total, 33 participants were enrolled in the study. None of them had the diagnosis of psychosis but they displayed symptoms associated with it. Besides, a group of 19 healthy volunteers was used as controls. Then, 16 of them (from either group) were given a dose of CBD, and the rest got a placebo pill. At the next stage of the experiment, the participants were asked to perform memory tasks engaging the regions of the brain where activity is usually altered in psychotic patients. The tests were taken in MRI scanners to see what was happening in their heads.\nHaving analyzed the data, the scientists found that in patients exhibiting symptoms of psychosis brain activity was abnormal in the regions generally affected by the disorder, but in those who received a CBD dose, it was not as severe as in those psychotic patients who were given a placebo pill.\nThe researchers hope that they will be able to demonstrate in an upcoming large scale trial that cannabidiol can be used for treatment of psychosis in young patients. They have already been supported by a substantial grant for this purpose.\nSince there are many people displaying early symptoms of psychosis on both sides of the pond, there is an urgent need for treatments that would help halt the process and reset brain activity to make it normal. Currently available drugs are rarely prescribed at early stages due to their having a lot of adverse effects. CBD is devoid of mind-altering effects, and it can become an opportunity for many to stop the disorder in its tracks.",

        "raw_content": "U.S. Bishops\u2019 Domestic Chairman Reacts to Bipartisan Carbon Pricing Bill\nWASHINGTON\u2014After the introduction of the Energy Innovation and Carbon Dividend Act of 2019 (EICDA) yesterday, Bishop Frank J. Dewane of Venice, Florida, Chairman of the U.S. Bishops\u2019 Committee on Domestic Justice and Human Development, welcomed the legislation as an important step forward in addressing climate change.\n\u201cThis bipartisan bill is a hopeful sign that more and more, climate change is beginning to be seen as a crucial moral issue; one that concerns all people. If enacted, this proposal is expected to result in significant reductions in greenhouse gas emissions. At a time when the dangerous effects of climate change are becoming increasingly apparent, the need for legislative solutions like this is more urgent than ever.\nFundamentally, this bill is about ensuring that the full spectrum of costs associated with greenhouse gas emissions\u2014economic, social, and environmental\u2014are accounted for. Failing to consider the health and well-being of people, including future generations and the planet, means that \u2018businesses profit by calculating and paying only a fraction of the costs involved\u2019 (Laudato Si\u2019, no. 195). This proposed legislation is one possible remedy to addressing these imbalances.\nWhile it is well-known that putting a price on carbon will increase energy prices, a phenomenon that can have a disproportionate impact on the poor, it is encouraging that initial analyses suggest that low-income individuals will overwhelmingly benefit from this policy. Additional in-depth and independent analysis is still needed to fully understand the potential impacts on poor and vulnerable persons, families and their communities. Supplemental support for these households may be needed to further alleviate potential financial burdens. Climate change can only ever be adequately addressed if it is done with an eye towards \u2018the least of these.\u2019\u201d\nKeywords: United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, USCCB, Bishop Frank J.

This celebration is a special time for individual parishes and the greater Church to celebrate the beauty of the consecrated vocation, highlight its various forms, and reflect on the unique Christ-centered witness that consecrated men and women bring to the Church and the surrounding community.\nInstituted by St. Pope John Paul II in 1997, World Day for Consecrated Life will be formally recognized during a Mass offered by Pope Francis at the Vatican on February 2, 2019. The day is celebrated in conjunction with the Feast of the Presentation of the Lord, also known as Candlemas Day, which commemorates through the blessing and lighting of candles that Christ is the light of the world. In the same way, consecrated persons, by belonging exclusively to Christ, act as the true hands and feet of Jesus by bringing his love and the light of the Gospel to all those they encounter in their life and work.\nEach form of consecrated life is distinct and inspired by the Holy Spirit to serve the Church through a particular charism. Discerning consecrated life involves a process of identifying the unique way in which Christ is calling a person to love. Cardinal Joseph W. Tobin, C.Ss.R., Chairman of the USCCB\u2019s Committee on Clergy, Consecrated Life and Vocations offered encouraging words for those discerning a vocation to consecrated life: \u201cOftentimes, those discerning a vocation search for the perfect community. The Lord, who created every heart, knows of the way he is calling each person to serve him. Trust that he will lead you to the vocation that is perfect for you.\u201d\nThe Center for Applied Research in the Apostolate (CARA) is retained each year by the Committee on Clergy, Consecrated Life and Vocations to conduct a survey of those solemnly professed in the United States in the past year. This year\u2019s CARA Study identified 240 men and women religious who professed perpetual vows in 2018. Of these 240 religious, 162 responded with 92 sisters and nuns and 70 brothers and priests participating in the study. Some of the major findings are:\nOn average, responding religious report that they were 19 years old when they first considered a vocation to religious life, but half were 18 or younger when they first did so.\nEucharistic Adoration, retreats, and the rosary are the most common types of formative prayer experiences, reported by two-thirds of religious of the Profession Class of 2018. Nearly six in ten reported participating in spiritual direction.\nOf those surveyed, 23% of respondents earned a graduate degree before entering their religious institute. More than 71% entered their religious institute with at least a bachelor\u2019s degree (65% for women and 79% for men).\nThe entire CARA survey, Prayers of the Faithful, and a bulletin quote for World Day for Consecrated Life, as well as information about the different forms of consecrated life and the work of the Secretariat on Clergy, Consecrated Life and Vocations is available at http://www.usccb.org/beliefs-and-teachings/vocations/consecrated-life/index.cfm\nKeywords: U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, USCCB, World Day for Consecrated Life, Cardinal Joseph W.

V\u00e1squez, of Austin, Texas, Chairman of USCCB Committee on Migration, issued the following joint statement in response to the President\u2019s January 19th remarks:\n\u201cWe urge the President and lawmakers to end the shutdown. Political leaders must come together to ensure a bipartisan solution is reached which recognizes the economic struggle that many families are facing including those dependent on federal workers and those assisted by critical nutrition and housing programs.\nWe are encouraged by the President\u2019s openness to providing legislative relief for Temporary Protected Status (TPS) holders and existing Deferred Action for Childhood Arrival (DACA) recipients. However, we understand that the President\u2019s proposal would only provide temporary relief, leaving many in a continued vulnerable state. We believe that a permanent legislative solution for TPS holders and for all Dreamers is vital. Moreover, the proposal calls for the construction of a wall along the U.S. border with Mexico, a proposal that our brother bishops on both sides of the U.S. border with Mexico oppose, and it suggests changes in current law that would make it more difficult for unaccompanied children and asylum seekers to access protection.\nThroughout our parishes, there are many DACA youth and TPS holders, who have lived substantial parts of their lives in the U.S. contributing to this country. We listen and understand the fear and uncertainty they and their families face and the anguish that they are currently experiencing as their existing immigration protections hang in the balance and come to an end. Temporary relief will not ease those fears or quell that anxiety. It is for this reason that we have long advocated for comprehensive immigration reform; reform that will provide permanent solutions: including border security, protection for vulnerable unaccompanied children and asylum seekers, and a defined path to citizenship to enable our immigrant brothers and sisters to fully contribute to our society.\nWe look forward to reviewing the President\u2019s proposal in detail and hope to work with the White House and Congress to advance legislation that shows compassion, keeps us safe, and protects the vulnerable.\u201d\nKeywords: United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, USCCB, Cardinal Daniel N.

Bambera of Scranton, chair of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops' (USCCB) Committee on Ecumenical and Interreligious Affairs, invites all to celebrate the annual Week of Prayer for Christian Unity, which takes place January 18-25, 2019. This week provides an opportunity to join together and pray as Jesus did \u201cthat they may all be one.\u201d (John 17:21) The practice, originally called the Christian Unity Octave, was first observed in 1908 by Fr. Paul Wattson and Sr. Lurana White, co-founders of the Society of Atonement. Today, it is a collaborative project by the Vatican\u2019s Pontifical Council for Promoting Christian Unity and the Faith and Order Commission of the World Council of Churches.\nThis year\u2019s theme is \u201cJustice, Only Justice, You Shall Pursue.\u201d (Deuteronomy 16:20). It was chosen by Christians from Indonesia, highlighting the unique opportunity the call for justice plays in our ecumenical efforts. According to Graymoor Ecumenical & Interreligious Institute (GEII) who promotes the Week of Prayer in the United States, Christian communities \"become newly aware of their unity as they join in a common concern and a common response to an unjust reality. At the same time, confronted by these injustices, we are obliged, as Christians, to examine the ways in which we are complicit. Only by heeding Jesus\u2019s prayer 'that they all may be one' can we witness to living unity in diversity. It is through our unity in Christ that we will be able to combat injustice and serve the needs of its victims.\"\nFurther information and other resources for the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity are available at http://www.usccb.org/beliefs-and-teachings/ecumenical-and-interreligious/events/week-of-prayer-for-christian-unity.cfm\nKeywords: U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, USCCB, Committee on Ecumenical and Interreligious Affairs, Bishop Joseph C.

Wade Anniversary Statement Encourages Faithful to be \u201cWitnesses of Merciful Love\u201d\nWASHINGTON\u2014Archbishop Joseph F. Naumann of Kansas City called on the faithful \"to pray for an end to the human rights abuse of abortion, and for a culture of life, where through God\u2019s grace all will come to know they are made in His Divine Image.\u201d\nHis statement on January 18 marks the 46th anniversary of Roe v. Wade, the 1973 U.S. Supreme Court decision legalizing abortion in all 50 states. Archbishop Naumann, who gave the opening prayer at the March for Life the same day, chairs the Committee on Pro-Life Activities of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops.\n\u201cProtecting the life of the unborn children is the pre-eminent human rights issue of our time, not only because of the sheer magnitude of the numbers, but because abortion attacks the sanctuary of life, the family,\u201d wrote Archbishop Naumann. \u201cEvery abortion not only destroys the life of an innocent child, but it wounds and scars mothers and fathers...in reality, the welfare of parents and their child are always intimately linked.\u201d\nNaumann also made it clear that pro-life Catholics \u201care concerned about the life and dignity of the human person wherever it is threatened or diminished,\u201d and highlighted the sexual abuse crisis within the Church as an example of \u201cgrave injustice\u201d to this dignity. \u201cThe abuse of children or minors upends the pro-life ethic,\u201d the Archbishop explained, because it is an \u201cegregious offense against the dignity of the human person.\u201d\nThe Archbishop spoke of a Church \u201cdevastated by the scandal of sexual misconduct by clergy and of past instances of the failure of bishops to respond with compassion to victims of abuse and to protect adequately the members of their flock.\u201d He urged the Church and the faithful to \u201cseek justice for all of God\u2019s children.\u201d\n\u201cWe must do all we can to be God\u2019s witnesses of merciful love in the world,\u201d the Archbishop continued. \u201cWe know and give thanks for the great dignity God has given to us from the moment of conception, to be made in his image. We also must pray for the grace to remind others of this inherent dignity, in our words and in our actions.\u201d\nThe Archbishop encouraged all Catholics to take part in the National Day of Prayer for the Legal Protection of the Unborn on January 22: \u201cLet us pray that we can be great and effective witnesses for life, witnesses for love, witnesses for mercy.\u201d\nThe full text of Archbishop Naumann's message is available online at http://www.usccb.org/about/pro-life-activities/january-roe-events/2019/2019-statement-on-the-anniversary-of-roe-vs-wade.cfm\nKeywords: USCCB, Pro-Life, Abortion, Archbishop Naumann, March for Life, protection of life, human person, mercy, human dignity, National Day of Prayer\nPresident Trump Announces Commitment to Uphold Pro-Life Laws\nWASHINGTON\u2014 Today, President Trump reiterated his enduring support for pro-life laws or policies. Archbishop Joseph F. Naumann, chairman of the U.S. Catholic Bishops\u2019 Committee on Pro-Life Activities responded with the following statement:\n\u201cAs Chairman of the U.S. Bishops\u2019 Committee on Pro-Life Activities, I commend President Trump for announcing at today\u2019s March for Life that he will oppose repealing or weakening any existing pro-life laws or policies. These pro-life laws and policies reflect the convictions of millions of Americans, many of whom attended today\u2019s March, that taxpayers should not be forced to fund abortions, or organizations that promote abortion, or participate in any way in the deliberate destruction of unborn human life.\nWe are deeply grateful for the President\u2019s pro-life commitment, and for all the actions this administration has taken to protect unborn children and their mothers from the violence of abortion. We look forward to working with Congress and the Administration to advance policies that value human life and dignity from conception to natural death.\u201d\nKeywords: United States Conference of Catholic Bishops USCCB, Pro-Life\nWASHINGTON\u2014 The president of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, Cardinal Daniel DiNardo of Galveston-Houston, has issued the following statement in relation to the observance of Martin Luther King Jr. Day on January 21.\nCardinal DiNardo's full statement follows:\n\u201cToday more than ever, our societies need \u2018artisans of peace\u2019 who can be messengers and authentic witnesses of God the Father, who wills the good and the happiness of the human family.\u201d\nPope Francis\u2019 words, given in his 2019 World Day of Peace address, remind us how Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was such an artisan of peace. Dr. King was a messenger and true witness to the power of the gospel lived in action through public life. This year, as we again mark the anniversary of his life, and reflect upon the 51st anniversary of his death, we are thankful for the path forged by Dr. King and the countless others who worked tirelessly and suffered greatly in the fight for racial equality and justice.\nAs a nation and as a society, we face great challenges as well as tremendous opportunities ahead.\nThis past November, the entire body of Catholic bishops approved Open Wide Our Hearts: The Enduring Call to Love\u2014 A Pastoral Letter Against Racism. The letter\u2019s goal is to again name and call attention to a great affliction and evil that persists in this nation, and to offer a hope-filled Christian response to this perennial sickness. Racism is a national wound from which we continually struggle to heal. As we wrote in the pastoral letter, \u201cRacism can only end if we contend with the policies and institutional barriers that perpetuate and preserve the inequality\u2014economic and social\u2014that we still see all around us.\u201d\nToday, remembering how Dr. King contended with policies and institutional barriers of his time, many which persist today, we renew our pledge to fight for the end of racism in the Church and in the United States. We pledge our commitment to build a culture of life, where all people are valued for their intrinsic dignity as daughters and sons of God. We encourage Catholics and all people of good will to study the pastoral letter, and to study and reflect upon Dr. King\u2019s witness against the destructive effects of racism, poverty and continuous war.\nWe call on everyone to embrace our ongoing need for healing in all areas of our lives where we are wounded, but particularly where our hearts are not truly open to the idea and the truth that we are all made in the image and likeness of God. As Dr. King said, \"Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that. We must learn to live together as brothers or perish together as fools.\"\nUSCCB Pastoral Letter on racism and other information about the USCCB Ad Hoc Committee Against Racism can be found at: http://www.usccb.org/issues-and-action/human-life-and-dignity/racism/\nKeywords: United States Conference of Catholic Bishops USCCB, Cardinal Daniel DiNardo, Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Racism\nWASHINGTON\u2014Representatives of bishops' conferences from several countries, including Archbishop Timothy P. Broglio, Chairman of the International Justice and Peace Committee of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, met in the Holy Land January 12-17, 2019. Together, they have issued their annual communiqu\u00e9 in which they acknowledge the challenges and opportunities that Christians face in Israel. In the communiqu\u00e9, the bishops call for prayer, pilgrimage and practical solidarity on behalf of Christians in Israel to help keep hope for the future alive.\nNoting that Israel was founded on the principle of equality for all citizens, representatives of bishops\u2019 conferences from several countries, including the United States, acknowledged that Christians in Israel face challenges and opportunities. In the final communiqu\u00e9 of the Holy Land Coordination, the bishops called for prayer, pilgrimage and practical solidarity to help Christians in Israel keep their hope for the future alive.\nNineteen bishops from Europe, the United States, Canada and South Africa made the annual solidarity visit which included time spent in Jerusalem, Bethlehem, Haifa, and villages meeting with Christian mayors, villagers, and migrants to hear of their stories of living and working in Israel.\nIn their communiqu\u00e9, the bishops note that many Christians, along with Palestinian Arabs and migrants, face systematic discrimination and are marginalized. In particular they noted that Israel\u2019s Nation State Law passed in 2018 creates \u201ca constitutional and legal basis for discrimination\u201d against minorities and supported \u201call those challenging discrimination.\u201d\nAfter visiting a United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) camp and school in Jenin, the bishops also called for their governments to help fund health care, education and other basic services for Palestinian refugees. This was in response to the U.S. government\u2019s decision to withdraw funding for the Palestinians and call for the closing of UNRWA.\nThe bishops expressed admiration for their sisters and brothers in the Holy Land for not losing hope and committed themselves to help keep that hope alive.\nThe United States Conference of Catholic Bishops along with bishops from other nations on this solidarity visit continue to decry violence as a way to resolve conflict but instead strongly support a two-state solution in which the two democratic sovereign states of Israel and Palestine exist in peace.\nThe Coordination of Episcopal Conferences in Support of the Church in the Holy Land has met every January since 1998 to pray and act in solidarity with the Christian community in the Holy Land.\nThe bishops\u2019 2019 communiqu\u00e9 is available at: www.usccb.org/issues-and-action/human-life-and-dignity/global-issues/middle-east/israel-palestine/holy-land-coordination-communique-january-2019.cfm\nKeywords: United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, USCCB, Holy Land Coordination, Archbishop Timothy Broglio, Committee on International Justice and Peace, Holy Land, Israel, Christians, pilgrimage, solidarity, communiqu\u00e9, United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA), Palestine, sovereign states\nUSCCB PRO-LIFE SECRETARIAT EXPRESSES DEEP DISAPPOINTMENT AT SENATE FAILURE TO PASS NO TAXPAYER FUNDING FOR ABORTION ACT\nWASHINGTON\u2014 \u201cTaxpayer dollars should not pay for abortion. The majority of Americans, including many who consider themselves pro-choice, agree on this,\u201d said Kat Talalas, spokeswoman on abortion for the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB), responding to the Senate\u2019s vote today on the \u201cNo Taxpayer Funding for Abortion and Abortion Insurance Full Disclosure Act of 2019\u201d (S. 109).\nThe Senate voted (48-47) in favor of the bill, but Talalas expressed deep disappointment that it did not receive the 60 votes needed for passage in the Senate. The Senate held its vote on January 17, the day before the annual March for Life in Washington.\nThe bill would codify a permanent, government-wide policy against taxpayer subsidies for abortion and abortion coverage. It would also require health plans offered under the Affordable Care Act to disclose the extent of their coverage for abortion and the amount of any surcharge for that coverage to consumers. Archbishop Joseph Naumann, chair of the Secretariat of Pro-Life Activities at the USCCB, wrote to Congress prior to the vote, urging support for the legislation.

Iran forms a bridge between the Middle East and the Far East in the centre of the ancient Silk Road, a major trading route which goes back tens of thousands of years.\nPersian cuisine has influenced many world cuisines, and has absorbed elements from other cuisines as well. It's no surprise that Persian ingredients such as saffron, pomegranate and spinach have made their way into other cuisines! As ancient traders took their wares to the corners of the world, they traded goods, bringing back the eating habits and ingredients from Greece, Rome, Turkey, Russia and India. Today's Persian cuisine traces its roots to ancient Persian ingredients and recipes, and is enriched by the great tastes imported from the rest of the world!\nShiraz Authentic Persian Restaurant offers a wide selection of meal choices including a vegetarian menu and homemade desserts.

        "raw_content": "Lateral internal sphincterotomy is a surgical option for an anal fissure that has not healed using conservative and/or medical treatments. The procedure works by reducing anal sphincter pressure and thus improving blood supply to the fissure. It is an excellent treatment for anal fissures, with 19 in 20 people having complete resolution of symptoms.\nThe operation does cut anal muscle, which is permanently lost. This has no effect in most people, but one in 20 people do have minor faecal incontinence after the operation. In some this improves, but in others it is permanent. The form of incontinence is minor soiling in the underwear. For this reason, this operation is done mainly in men with excellent anal muscles. Only occasionally is it considered in women. You will have the opportunity to discuss fully all the risks and benefits of the operation with me before signing your consent form.\nLateral internal sphincterotomy is performed as anopenprocedure and involves making a small cut in the internal anal sphincter muscle to decrease the tension in your anal canal. This reduced tension improves the blood supply and allows superior healing of the anal fissure. The whole procedure takes approximately 15 minutes.\nThis procedure is done on a day-stay basis under general anaesthesia, where you will be asleep and feel no pain. You will need to fast from midnight on the night before if your surgery is scheduled for the morning, or from 7 am if it scheduled for the afternoon.\nNo special bowel preparation is necessary before your procedure, unless you are also having a colonoscopy in the same sitting. You will receive an enema one hour or so before your surgery unless your anal pain is severe.\nYou will be given an injection of local anaesthetic before you leave the operating theatre to keep you pain-free in the 6 hours after your surgery. After the operation you will be transferred to the recovery area and then to the ward. You should be able to go home the same day, but sometimes patients may need to stay longer. You should not drive after your surgery, so a friend or relative will need to take you home.\nYou are likely to feel some pain after your surgery when your local anaesthetic wears off. This will get better and may take up to 4 weeks to resolve completely, but is usually less than anal fissure pain. It is important to keep your bowel movements soft and regular during this time. To prevent constipation, eat foods high in fibre, and drink plenty of water (6\u20138 glasses a day). Analgesia and laxatives will be given to you to take home. It is best to keep up with these until your bowels are moving and any discomfort is manageable. Laxatives may need to be continued for up to 4 weeks after surgery.\nExactly when patients can resume driving after this type of surgery is determined on a case-by-case basis. This is usually 1-2 weeks, but will be discussed with you after your surgery. Please let your insurance company know when you have been given the all-clear to resume driving.\nPatients are usually able to return to normal activities, including going back to work, 1\u20132 weeks after a lateral internal sphincterotomy. The majority of fissures treated by this procedure are fully healed within 2\u20134 weeks.\nA follow-up appointment in the clinic will be arranged in 1\u20132 weeks after your surgery to check your wound and discuss further management if necessary.",

        "raw_content": "<Maastricht Business Days, 12-13 March 2013: One Step Ahead!\nProf. Hashem Pesaran awarded Honorary Doctorate at Maastricht University>\n\u201cTake questions seriously,\u201d says Prof. Dr. M. Hashem Pesaran, Honorary Doctor at Maastricht University\nProf. Hashem Pesaran was awarded an Honorary Doctorate from Maastricht University by SBE Honorary Supervisor Prof. Franz Palm (left)\n37th Dies Natalis Maastricht University, 14 January 2013\nPhoto: Harry Heuts\n\u201cIt all started with a very simple question,\u201d says Prof. Hashem Pesaran, Distinguished Professor of Economics at the University of Southern California and Emeritus Professor of Economics at the University of Cambridge, a world leading scholar in time series and panel data econometrics.\nProf. Pesaran, who received last week an honorary doctorate from Maastricht University for his \u201coutstanding academic achievements\u201d and \u201cinspiring contribution\u201d to many of the research studies carried out at the University\u2019s School of Business and Economics, has an outspoken preference for an applied approach to econometrics.\n\u201cI develop methods because they help me solve concrete problems, not the other way around,\u201d he explains. \u201cIn this way, I am slightly different from theoretical academics who focus on abstract issues, which may be conducive to answering intermediate questions but not necessarily any particular question of imminent importance.\u201d\nThe real question for Prof. Pesaran came back in 1998, at a time when the world was still suffering from the effects of the Asian financial crisis of 1997. He was working as a consultant for Oliver Wyman in Germany and a bank manager posed the question: \u201cWhat would be the impact of a shock in Turkey or Latin America on the loan portfolio of our bank?\u201d\n\u201cThat was the beginning of my research on global modelling,\u201d says Prof. Pesaran, \u201cand much of my recent research originated from this very simple question. Many of the econometric techniques I have developed in one form or another attempt to provide answers to this and other similar questions.\u201d\nProf. Pesaran is convinced that the effects of shocks need to be analyzed and understood on a global scale, whether in terms of risks or benefits, and that national economic issues have to be considered not only at a national but also at a global level.\nInterview with Prof. Hashem Pesaran\nPhoto: Joey Roberts\nGlobal interdependencies\nAs a consequence, an important part of his current effort is devoted to the development of econometric tools such as the GVAR to study global economic and financial interdependencies between countries, regions, firms or consumers over time. The GVAR approach, for example, has been used to characterize and quantify the big shifts that are taking place from the West to Asia, in particular China. There are many other applications, some of which are collected in a GVAR Handbook to be published this year by Oxford University Press.\n\u201cMost existing economic models are closed models, something which has always seemed odd to me,\u201d says Prof. Pesaran.\nThe challenge in elaborating global models, however, lies in the fact that changes do not all happen everywhere at the same time: different variables change in different parts of the system at different times, making the entire system more complicated to study.\n\u201cFurthermore,\u201d he remarks, \u201cit is not enough to model the interconnections that are taking place; we also need to analyze how these interconnections are changing over time, and as a result the global economy. That\u2019s a more challenging task that hasn\u2019t been developed much yet, but I\u2019m sure it will.\u201d\nHow to quantify economic relationships?\nProf. Pesaran is passionate about his work and smiles often when he remembers the highlights of his career. \u201cMany things happened by chance, believe me,\u201d he says.\n\u201cI was born in Iran, in the south-western city of Shiraz, celebrated for its wine and wise poets such as Hafez and Saadi. At the age of 17, I was awarded a full scholarship by Bank Markazi (The Iranian Central Bank) to study in the UK in order to train as an accountant. When I arrived at the University of Salford, which was a young and modern university, I had never heard of economics as a subject of study but chose the brand new course that was being offered as a joint honours degree in economics, mathematics and statistics. Without realizing it at the time, I was fortunate to become acquainted at an early age with the fields in which I am now a specialist.\u201d\nAfter obtaining his PhD in Economics at the University of Cambridge, Prof. Pesaran returned to Iran and worked for the Central Bank of Iran, where he eventually became head of research. In this capacity, one of his tasks was to write the annual report covering the entire scope of economic activity in the country. \u201cThis gave me the opportunity to learn in depth about the Iranian economy,\u201d he says.\nAs part of his job, he saw the need to develop a language for econometrics in Iran. \u201cEconometrics was very new in those days, even in Europe. Some of the terms that are now used in Iran were actually invented by me, I made them up,\u201d he notes laughing.\nProf. Pesaran gave a lecture on Global Economic Interdependencies at Maastricht University School of Business and Economics\n37th Dies Natalis 14 January 2013\nIt is during this period of the early 1970s that an interesting request reached his desk. \u201cOil prices had gone up by four times and oil exporting countries, including Iran, were earning a lot of money. But the high price of oil also made them worried about a possible decline of demand. The Shah of Iran received a letter from the King of Saudi Arabia containing an interesting econometric question: \u2018What is the quantitative importance of a large rise in oil prices on demand for oil in the industrialized economies?\u2019 This was precisely how Ragnar Frisch had defined one of the primary purposes of econometrics: \u201cHow to quantify economic relationships?\u2019\u201d\nAnother econometric question oil-producing countries were asking at the time was, \u201cHow much of the increased oil revenues should be spent domestically and how much invested abroad for future generations?\u201d; a question which remains pertinent to many major oil exporters.\n\u201cThese were exciting times,\u201d comments Prof. Pesaran, who recalls writing a piece in English for the Iranian Oil minister (Dr. Jahangir Amouzegar who later became a Prime Minster under the Shah) for a speech to be given at the UN \u201con the topic of \u2018Cooperation, not Confrontation\u2019. It was a great experience to attend the UN General Assembly. I was only 29.\u201d\nChance struck again when a fellowship offer from Trinity College Cambridge gave him the possibility to leave Iran before the Islamic Revolution of 1979 and to further pursue his career in the UK.\nBy that time, econometrics had become an important field of study not only in the UK, but also in the Netherlands, Scandinavia and the US. The Dutchman Jan Tinbergen and the Norwegian Ragnar Frisch had received the Nobel Prize in economics in 1969 for their contributions to econometrics and for developing the first macroeconometric model (in the case of Tinbergen) after World War I. The development of national accounts (pioneered by Professor Richard Stone at Cambridge) gave further impetus to the use of econometric techniques worldwide.\n\u201c[John Maynard] Keynes was very influential in Cambridge, where he had many disciples. He was perceived as being critical of Tinbergen\u2019s work, but I did not agree, and I wrote an article entitled \u201cKeynes on Tinbergen\u201d (jointly with Ron Smith) to clarify the nature of Keynes\u2019 criticism, which was less directed at Tinbergen\u2019s approach as such than at the tools that had been used at the time. You can be against particular tools used for surgery in the past, for example, without being against surgery itself.\u201d\nNowadays, in a world which is becoming increasingly interconnected and undergoing changes at high speed and on a large scale, new ideas and techniques are required to analyze the volume and complexity of data sets available. Emerging economies are asking for distinct econometrics models to understand specific types of data sets such as village data or mini-credit data.\nIn Western economies, econometricians and financial analysts are developing tools to handle high frequency data, such as scanner data, credit data or intraday financial data.\n\u201cThe amount of data means that the discretionary method of analysis is no longer effective,\u201d says Prof. Pesaran. \u201cWe need to develop automated methods to handle real time data. We are moving towards real time econometrics.\u201d\n\u201cAt the Journal of Applied Econometrics, ranked amongst the top five econometrics journals worldwide, we receive 600 new submissions a year in many areas of applied econometrics,\u201d comments Prof. Pesaran, who founded the peer-reviewed journal in 1986.\n\u201cIt is very important to publish the research, because that\u2019s the only way to achieve progress,\u201d he stresses. \u201cWhen I work as a consultant for international agencies or private companies, I always try to ensure that I can make the results of my work public, even though they\u2019d rather keep it for themselves.\u201d\nIn the professor\u2019s eyes, universities provide \u201ca unique service\u201d in disseminating knowledge, \u201cbecause no other institution does that so comprehensively.\u201d\nAnother advantage of universities as research institutions is that they allow for interdisciplinary approaches to tackle econometric problems. \u201cThe questions have become so complex that many different skills are required to answer them.. We need to think bigger and set up teams to consider economic problems that are being faced at the national and global levels. Econometrics is not like literature or mathematics, you cannot do it on your own.\u201d\nThat is why Prof. Pesaran devotes much of his time to securing research grants for post-doctoral research programmes and putting research teams together. \u201cI am optimistic that with the tools that are becoming more available, the increasing availability of data, and a better understanding of the techniques we have, we can solve other problems which we haven\u2019t yet considered,\u201d he says. \u201cHopefully younger generations can lead the way.\u201d\nIn a world characterized by global interdependencies, Prof. Pesaran seems to be eminently inspired by the 13th century Persian poet and philosopher Saadi from his birthplace of Shiraz, whose words, which he was pleased to see written in the entrance hall of the United Nations building in New York, he proudly quotes:\nIf thou hast no sympathy for the troubles of others\nThou art unworthy to be called by the name of a human.\u201d\nTagged: economics finance globalisation methodology research SBE UM\nTalkin'business online magazine | Where academia meets businessTalkin'business online magazine January 23, 2013 at 10:45 am\n[...] Read our feature article: \u201cTake questions seriously,\u201d says Prof. Dr. M.

        "raw_content": "By Panthera GOLD, Plymouth, Minnesota\nMore by this author Follow Panthera\nPanthera GOLD, Plymouth, Minnesota\n\"Keep your friends close but your enemies closer\"\nFear. The driving force of life. We may fear what we do not understand, but that doesn\u2019t mean that the things we understand we do not fear. Some things we fear most are things we understand most. This statement holds true for almost all of my race: the beings who understand this disease are the people who fear it most. Unfortunately, I am one of them.\nIt started five years ago, when I was asked to engineer a deadly disease for Germany to use against Iraq, a power-hungry country attempting to take over Germany to control everything. I looked at the DNA that made up the nervous system cells in the brain. Months of research paid off, and I found a way to change the DNA of the cells so they would no longer function properly. Failing, succeeding, tampering, I worked to engineer the disease. It took me two years, but finally, I had engineered a deadly disease that altered the neurological pathways so they don't connect, causing almost instant death in the victim. I presented it to our President and he gave the go-ahead. He invited the leaders of Iraq to a dinner, and I snuck the bacteria/animal cells onto their plates. I watched as my years of research and engineering paid off. Their leaders took a few bites and fell dead seconds later. It had worked. Whispering a quiet warning, he said, \u201cWork on a cure. Don\u2019t tell anyone else what you did.\u201d I took his words to the heart.\nMonths later, I began work as an epidemiologist and geneticist in the USA. They had found out about my amazing scientific and genetic achievements, among them curing the flu for good and helping ensure that everyone would be born with fully functional organs and limbs. I worked to eradicate the disease I created, although I knew it was useless. I understand everything about my disease, known as the Messier Strain, Messier for short. I knew that it was unstoppable and will not rest until it has claimed the lives of every human out there, including mine. I fear it for this very reason. However, I didn't voice my knowledge and concerns, for that would lead to trouble, and so I kept silent.\nIn the labs, we study how the bacteria grows and how it affects the brains of other species out there, such as mice and other vermin. Our results have shown that the Messier Strain only affects humans. I could have told them that, but I didn\u2019t want to. It would go against my president\u2019s words, and I wished to honor those last words he spoke to me. About a month after I left Germany, Messier killed nearly everyone in it, including my sister. It was sad, but I had to move on. I came to America to work alongside people like Jon Arce, the famous epidemiologist whose work led to the eradication of Malaria, and Sofia Aitken, the geneticist who brought back the Dodo birds.\nDr. Arce has been tracking the spread of the disease while Dr. Aitken has been checking the DNA analysis. She recently found an anomaly in the DNA that I added to throw researchers off. I was glad she did, for her shrieks of excitement brought me out of my state of grief.\n\u201cWhat is is?\u201d I asked, pretending I didn\u2019t know. She pointed at a set of bases that was glowing bright red on the screen of the DNA-sequencing machine. I saw my forceful pairing of Adenine and Cytosine. In nature, these two never occur together. But I had found a way to do it. I pretended to look surprised.\n\u201cExactly. This means that someone engineered this disease and it was not a natural occurrence, therefore it was intended to be a weapon,\u201d Dr. Aitken said.\n\u201cThis means\u2026\u201d Dr. Arce started.\n\u201cThat only the person who made Messier could tell us what the base was so we could come up with a cure and eradicate it,\u201d all three of us said together.\n\u201cSo now it is a matter of finding out who engineered Messier,\u201d Dr. Aitken said.\n\u201cBased off my research, it started in Germany where it has caused the entire country to fall ill. Then, it slowly spread to countries around it. Recent forms are different than the original. First, it was foodborne and now it\u2019s waterborne too. Because nearly all water sources in Europe have tested positive for Messier, it has been spreading extremely rapidly as of late,\u201d Dr. Arce spoke.\n\u201cWe must find a way to combat this,\u201d I said, \u201cbut we cannot do that without a sample of the pathogen.\u201d Dr. Arce smirked.\n\u201cIncidentally, I have one right here. Messier is a bacterial strain, although research from another epidemiologist shows that it is not truly bacteria and has a fully fledged nucleus, suggesting combination with an animal cell. He calls it an \u2018Alien Cell\u2019, for it is not quite bacterial and not quite animal or plant,\u201d Dr. Arce replied. I see they are on the verge of discovery. I will bring my variant into play very soon.\n\u201cGood. Hopefully we can find a cure before it wipes our whole species off the face of the earth,\u201d Dr. Aitken smiled. Her brilliant smile, bright and hopeful, made me hesitate for a moment\n\u201cIndeed,\u201d I said. There is no cure. The damage is irreversible. It is better that they do not know until it is too late. These secrets I keep will die along with me.\n\u201cEvery cure we have tried hasn\u2019t worked. It has only caused more harm,\u201d Dr. Aitken said.\n\u201cAs well as that bad news, our research facility is the only left in the world. We are the last concentrated group of people in the world. Messier has killed almost everyone else,\u201d Dr. Arce added. I smiled. My goal is nearly complete. I only have to finish off our building. Then, the spread of Messier will be complete without anyone for it to infect.\n\u201cThrough our two years researching this, I think we all understand the disease, but one aspect sticks with me and haunts me,\u201d I said.\n\u201cYou mean that it is unstoppable?\u201d Dr. Aitkens asked. I nodded my head gravely.\n\u201cThen it is time to report our findings to the world, or rather the only 252 people left in it,\u201d Dr. Arce said. We all nodded in agreement. I called everyone to a gathering in the conference room over the intercom system. As my research team left the room, I lingered behind to grab the mutated Messier I had been working on as well as a needle filled with a clear liquid. I turned off the lights, for I knew they would be useless after this meeting was over. The door closed with an ominous thump as we walked away in complete silence. This is it. The zenith of my work. After all these years, it will have come full circle.\nJon Arce held open the door and Sofia Aitken and I walked in. The last remaining member of the media announced out arrival.\n\u201cToday, Jon Arce, Sofia Aitken, and Corina Hofmeister will present their findings about Messier to the world,\u201d The man announced. He quickly scurried back to his seat and sat down.\n\u201cHello. With the help of other scientists, we know Messier is carried on Alien Cells. It was genetically engineered and we know this due to a forceful pairing of bases. We know it was based of a bacterial strain, however we are unsure of exactly which. Not that it matters, for Messier is as different from any disease seen before as black is from white. Thank you,\u201d Dr. Aitken spoke. Dr. Arce stood up.\n\u201cMessier started in Germany and spread rapidly through contaminated food and water. It traveled overseas through intercontinental shipments in which contaminated food or water was being carried. Messier can change the DNA of brain cells and cause them to die off in large quantities at a single time. Thank you,\u201d Dr. Arce finished. I waited for him to sit down. This is it. This is the time when I reveal my secret. I stood up and walked to the podium. The waiting crowd held its breath as I gathered myself.\n\u201cLadies and gentlemen, we have come to the point of understanding Messier so well that we know its fate and fear it. We are all going to die of Messier, for it is unstoppable,\u201d I announced.\n\u201cHow do you know, Corinna?\u201d Dr. Aitken asked. The I put my hand on the lid of the container that carried an airborne variant of Messier that would affect everyone but me. I twisted the lid saying, \u201cbecause I made it,\u201d as I opened the container. The disease filled the room and I grabbed a syringe filled with poison. I set it by my arm, shut my eyes, placed the needle, and pressed the plunger. Everything hurt, but that pain gave way to eternal darkness.\n\u00a9 Nick R., Great Neck, NY\nBy Jenna D&#39;Angelo\nOne Thursday at Four Thirty\nBy Merissa Odren",

        "title": "The Avatar Portal Forum \u2022 View topic - What if... Amon won?",
        "raw_content": "Let's speculate. I have a feeling, as many do, that if Amon won, it would impact all areas of life. It also carries with it huge implications, especially ones that are characteristic of dystopia instead of utopia.\nThis is the simplest to interpret, I think. My speculation would be that the disappearance of benders would cripple all development, simply because as of right now, it has been so integral to technological development and infrastructure. Even in Aang's time, we saw entire cities built on bending. Ba Sing Se had transportation systems that were earthbender-based, and I would argue that the vast majority of Omashu was built through earthbending. Even further, we see earthbending used in mines - something that would naturally persist in a world that will be dependent on coal. We see this most presently in the use of firebenders to generate lightning. That was a HUGE shot in the series, even if the clip only lasted for a few seconds. We see how their economy is DRIVEN. Energy is created by firebenders. Although it may not be entirely safe, it is the most efficient way to gain energy production, which is obviously critical in their Industrial world.\nNow, we've established that bending is a big foundation of their economy. So what if Amon does win? How are they going to deal with these losses? Manual labor? Although it is possible, that is not a feasible solution, simply because of the vast amount of energy production that will be lost through, say, running on treadmills to provide the same amount of energy that a single firebender could produce with lightening. Mining would have to be done by hand, and real life be damned if we don't know how grueling that is. The world would have to take a few huge steps technologically backwards, and it would have to find a way to deal with the losses. I don't know, nor can I predict, how far back they would have been thrown, as it can be assumed that ALL technological development up until this point would have been impacted by bending.\nSocial Constructs:\nI think that this is the only area that Amon is truly trying to impact. He is attempting to remove another social barrier. I believe that, in the wake of bending being a social limit, there will be the creation or exaggeration of something new or traditional - wealth, probably - and this will be the \"new\" social construct.\nThere would be equality, should Amon win. But there would be even more variance because people (especially benders) would do anything to grab as much power as they have had before. Fear of bending, or love of bending, comes from power. Bending is, indisputably, a power. Whether inherited genetically or spiritually, it is distinct, and with all else being equal, a bender will always be more powerful. Similarly, all else being equal, ___________ will become the advantage.\nTechnical Details/Dystopia:\n- How is Amon going to debend all babies? Assuming that other areas of their world increased at the same pace that they have in our world, there are going to be A LOT OF BABIES SOON. Assuming that debending someone removes their bending powers, but not their potential (whether spiritual or genetic), their children would be able to bend. Meaning that Amon (or whomever he teaches to energybend, assuming that it is ACTUALLY energybending) will have to constantly circle across the world. I mean, I don't envy him. Even with an air bison, even with whatever transportation they have now, it won't be enough. Some will slip through his fingers, and unless he plans on systematically shipping every newborn to him and going down the rows on a yearly/bi-yearly/weekly basis, the man is going to be tired.\n- Furthermore, does he think that his power will be so absolute that he will keep ALL benders subdued. I'm sure he knows about the swamp, which, well, again, I don't envy him. Plenty of people (especially waterbenders, as we've seen) could hide in there. People would try to escape, to hide their children. After all, if you're capable enough, you can survive. The only way to avoid this is to become a dystopia. And while he has legions of followers, imposing a dystopia takes more than minions, it takes the willingness of the majority of the population and a slow transition into that system.\nI'm sure I've missed some technicalities, and some big ideas! Just wanted to jot these down while they were at hand.\nRe: What if... Amon won?\nby Met \u00bb Mon May 28, 2012 4:25 pm\nIn short, their world will become like ours: ordinary, dull, magic-less\nAnd so, the worst part is that it would make a terrible TV series, which nobody would want to watch D:\nBut in all sincerity, the points you make are completely valid. All of this push for equality sounds too much like Communism (Leninist ideology). Their world may end up socially destroyed, poverty stricken and weak, with wealth and power very poorly distributed.\nby Firelord Alex \u00bb Mon May 28, 2012 4:32 pm\nThis world dull? DULL?\nI wouldn't be so quick to call this world dull.\nI'm glad you continue to see the world as an exciting existence (because it is), but no matter how wonderful something may be, habit and repetition will make it seem ordinary and dull to us people.\nThat is precisely why (at least one of the major reasons why) ATLA and Korra are such popular shows, they present an alternative reality; something different to our world, which is what really excites us, because we have become all too used to our world.\nThat is true for many shows, movies, novels, etc. They submerge us in a different (and therefore exciting) reality, making the audience long for that reality.\nAlex, I love you, even though you took my \"super-deep and intellectual\" post and turned it into something about nutella.\nMet wrote: I'm glad you continue to see the world as an exciting existence (because it is), but no matter how wonderful something may be, habit and repetition will make it seem ordinary and dull to us people.\nI agree that other realities excite us as humans, but I try to live a life where \"boredom\" doesn't exist when I'm not in those other realities. The fact that so many people say \"OMG I'm sooooooo bored\" is sad. It shows they are lazy and don't want to actually do something. I keep my life far from dull. I learn, play, listen, watch, and move so life isn't just watching TV/youtube then saying \"I'm bored.\" I accomplish things, which is an exciting prospect.\nAnd Nutella is pretty damn amazing.\nby LimitedUBF \u00bb Mon May 28, 2012 5:54 pm\nThe world is awesome, A world with bending would just add to the awesome.\nThe world we live in once was the Avatar world. The Equalists won, hence no more benders, and the Avatar was destroyed in the Avatar State, thus also destroying the link between the spirit world and the physical world, hence Atheism and religion.\nFrom there certain technology had to be reinvented thanks to the lack of bending-enhanced machines, and eventually it led to where we are today, although perhaps there may have been a few nuclear winters over time.\nOr or or or...

Amon has a plan and he will very much be taking most all the vacant power seats that are left when there are no more benders. He'll rule the world with a platinum fist.\nYou're right about having to regularly debend children, except what if debending the Avatar and, consequently, the bridge to the Spirit World, all bending is then permanently lost through the Avatar?\nAlso, Alex, \"dull\" is a comparative term which only has meaning in relation to other things which are more or less \"dull.\" It only refers to the degree of sharpness of a given surface. When used in the context of describing the world as Met did, it still has that comparative nature. No matter how \"dull\" we perceive our world to be, we can always imagine other worlds which are more dull and no matter how bright we imagine our world to be, we can always imagine worlds that are brighter.\nThe ability to imagine an extreme in either direction leads to the classic thought experiment of Utopian and Dystopian societies and worlds. Our world is the basis and origin because it is our own frame of reference from which we extrapolate and imagine other worlds.\nUltimately, the answer is yes, our world is dull compared to a Utopia, but I think the point of this thread is that if Amon won, he promises to lead the ATLA world closer to a Utopia, but it seems his actions will more likely lead the ATLA world into a Dystopia.\nby Count of Monte Fisto \u00bb Sat Jun 02, 2012 10:28 pm\nOK, this is take 3.\nMy computer and stupid flash has taken two copies of this post and a Mencu post from me in the last two days. I have learned my lesson and I am doing this in on notepad now. :U. Son of a bitch.\nOk, what would happen if Amon won?\nWell, when I ask that question, the first thing I think about is how would Amon win. Throughout the show, I can see up to three different ways for Amon to win.\nThe fist one was just something I thought of in the beginning of the show. Amon said he would take bending away from everyone. I first imagined Amon sitting in some kind of throne room with lots of guards taking everyone's bending one person at a time. When you think about this, it seems a bit impossible. As Meg said, he could start the line right away and be less than half done the day he dies. Also, does removing someone's bending remove it from their gene pool. Can a bender that has lost their bending still reproduce and have a bender? It just isn't plausible. However, this does bring me to my second way, which does seem a bit more possible. In one of the Korra Kasts, SOTS mentioned that maybe, just maybe that everyone would lose their bending if Korra loses her bending. Whether or not that is the truth is hard to speculate on, but it does suggest a possible way for Amon to have a mass bending removal. If he had the ability or orchestrate something like this, then that would most certainly do the trick.\nA world without bending isn't exactly the same as a world without benders. If Amon took bending away, the benders would still be aware of what they had and what they lost. Amon and the equalists would likely face the wrath of an entire world's worth of benders that lost what was once theirs. Benders and non-benders will likely have a strong string on conflicts based on what happened. Benders will look to the spirits to see if they can get bending back. As time passes, the masses would soon die down. The conflict between benders and non-benders would more likely be a conflict of culture of benders and non-benders. Benders will fight for a culture that glorified their ability in the hope of re-obtaining it, while non-benders will relish in equality or more likely become indifferent to the situation. It would become the ATLAverse's religious conflict. Those who would stand as the previous benders would be a smaller crowd and likely become more extreme in time. In hundreds of years, it is likely that historical texts from that time will be called into question and the reality of the world will be doubted. People will make fictions about things that actually happened in the world, and people will doubt that the Avatar ever existed. If and when this happens, the world will likely mirror our world, with many different beliefs and origins and no objective set of morals and standards. There is even a good chance that they will invent guns.\nThe technology would take a hit, but I don't think it is something the world cannot handle. Unless the Sato mobiles run on firebender children, this supports the idea that their advanced technology is sulf sufficient, and that they can take care of themselves. RC also showed us that the city does make use of bending for energy and law enforcement purposes. They also have healers. We can imagine that there is far more than that. I do imagine that we would have a slight case of a reverse Gap theory with this. We would have a world used to technology socially that loses some of their access to it. We see stuff like this in every single show or movie that involves the apocalypse. Though, I really think that it would be little more than a hiccup for the world. Adjusting would take time, but it can be done.\nThis is what I expect... IF the spirits have nothing to say on the matter. For all we know, the spirits did not want this to happen, and such a travesty might incur some horrible wrath from the spirits. From ATLA, we learned that there are evil spirits. Perhaps there are some vengeful spirits. Maybe when Korra loses her bending, the tie between the Avatar and the spirit world will cause all sorts of natural disasters resulting in a large near apocalyptic scale causing a mass extingtion across the world. The sprits could flood the world or worse. If this happens, then the world will likely have to forge itself from the ground up. When and if that happens, Amon's victory will be immediately followed by a loss as the perception of objective values will sink into the minds of everyone and they will know how things should be. Then again, Amon might be right, and the spirits could be waiting for him at the finish line and high five him when he wins.\nThe last way for Amon to win, and is what I believe after seeing episode 6 is that he does not plan on taking all bending away, but simply subjugating benders to a point where bending becomes a taboo and ceases to happen. His speach at the probending arena gave me the impression that he wanted to equalize the playing field with equipment. This might just be in reference to the war between benders and non-benders before he wins, but I got the impression that his victory implied a similar circumstance on a world wide scale. I would see Amon simply taking the bending from key individuals. He would target the world's most known and influencial benders to state a message and attack morale. He would make an example of those that stand against him, and he would likely attempt to become his own totalitarian regime. If this occurred, Amon would basically need to run his own empire to secure the domination over bending. If nothing less, Amon would need to remain as a spiritual leader to his group as others take control. Powerful benders would create pockets of people for rebellion. The world likely mirror what Tarrlok tried to be in episode 8. I imagine that Amon would be more reasonable in trying to create a peaceful world, but it is clear that he has the capability of using force and will do so to succeed in his goals. The war between benders and non-benders will be siiiick. The ATLAverse will become Yugoslavia as there is a cultural war over the right and ability to use their bending. Benders will stand for a time and a culture where the power was seen as a gift and refer to a time where benders and non-benders lived in harmony, and Amon's world will refer to a time where non-benders are not taking the heat from the responsibility of the mistakes of their bending overlords.\nChances are that if Amon wins this way, the world will become chaos and he will lose over time. Unless Amon's power is one that can be passed down, his ability that allowed him to rise into power will be lost. An illusion to fool the masses can be created, but the question of what happens after Amon dies is essential to the future to a world that he won. Without bending, spiritual and tactical leaders could take his place and continue control, but if there are benders, there will still be a use for his power. without that, it will be far more difficult to remain in power. Benders will likely reclaim the world with their natural advantage. Non-benders will have the position of power and the tools to subjugate benders, but unless Amon's secret police is large enough, the amount of benders and their natural ability will soon overcome Amon's forces. A bender can and may be able to learn to have access to the tools that subjugated them, while a non-bender will never have the ability to bend.\nThe only way for Amon to truly win this way would be to completely overcome the culture and present his world in a way that would make the fight not worth it to most of the world's benders. Though, as history has taught us, EK is notoriously stubborn, and FN is a hotbed for conflict. Eradicating the culture and attempting to reshape the world's values is his only hope of continuing his rule. Amon will likely have to continue on his prophetic interpretation of his own views on the spirits. The earliest interpretations of his religion and culture must bridge the masses from what they knew. It must related to the world they live in, and he must change it more over time to lose the connection from the past. When the philosophy of the old world becomes a thing of the past, then the rebellion will become less severe. Like stated above in a world without bending, bending will become taboo and those that believe otherwise will be the minority and be considered extremists. It will be like firing a gun in a country with heavy gun control laws.\nIf this does happen, I could see the world sustaining itself much like how ours does until there is a major global conflict again. At some point, the ability to use one's power will be called into question, and a world without Amon will likely call on the power of bending as countries of benders and non-benders have their own reasons to fight each other and seek leverage to gain the advantage. I believe that natural selection exists in society and because that, bending will always win. Because of that, it is truly an inevitability that if Amon cannot take bending, in time, the world will bend again.\nThen the world woud be like ours.. yet still cooler.. cause they have awesome animals. I mean REALLY! I want a polarbear dog..\nby samchn07 \u00bb Wed Aug 08, 2012 3:13 pm\nReally it's looks like a different world or a new place amazing and interesting where every one would like to entertain himself with it's amazing things.\nif Amon won...?\nwe'd probably have a scenariop similar to IRP2012 on our hands.\nby TheDancingDragon \u00bb Wed Aug 08, 2012 11:10 pm\nThe world would be very similar to our own, I think. The technology would just advance past the need for bending and it would be similar to the technology we posses today. However, a disconnection from the Spirit World might cause the Spirits to reek havoc on those who try to destroy nature. Just like the bear spirit did when the forest was burned.\nI honestly am glad that Amon didn't win, but whose to say that someone won't continue his cause?\nby Narcisius \u00bb Thu Aug 09, 2012 3:55 am\nPersonally, even if Amon was able to drive away the Avatar and secure Republic City, there wouldn't be any way to continue his initial success, and he would eventually fall.\nRevolutionary uprisings of this nature have proved throughout history to be terribly fragile beasts. Coupled with some of the problems you have stated - the near-total reliance on benders for things like construction and energy, the logistical issues stemming from the fact that Amon must personally de-bend every individual - as well as the fact that the other nations would certainly take notice of this threat and move to destroy it, I don't think Amon had much of a chance, in the long run.\nIn the end, I believe that the non-benders of Republic City would realize that the militarized state in which they now lived, with mechs and chi-blockers patroling the streets, no electricity, and pockets of bender resistance, wasn't the grand vision they had in there head. Again, revolution is a fickle thing, and people would quickly become disheartened, longing for the days when they could wander the streets without having to pass through Equalist checkpoints, or flip a switch and light up their own homes. Coupled with increased outside pressure, I'm sure that Amons support would have eventually crumbled enough to allow an invasion force to re-take Republic City. Meanwhile, the governments of the other nations would have used Republic City as an example, studying what had happened and how to avoid a similar uprising.",

        "raw_content": "Tiny Cheerleaders, Hotel Pools, and How I Achieved Nirvana in the Midst of Idiocy.\nSomehow, through tolerance and sheer force of will, I've managed to fall in love with the two I call my own, and there are several couples from church who have a few that I like.\nBut as a rule, the first time I meet or see a kid under the age of 11, I'm not going to like them.\n\"Is everybody on? GOOD GREAT GRAND WONDERFUL!\"\nI also hate hotels.\nIt never fails that I forget something important, and have to spend the rest of the day with a sore back and smelling like lady Degree.\nOther things I forgot:\nThere is one thing, however, that I look forward to when I go to a hotel. One amenity I always look for, and won't book without. And that is...\nThe Mount Olympus of the hotel.\n...the hotel pool.\nYes, I am aware that the kids who just left the hotel pool probably treated it like a personal lavatory, and I'm sure the honeymooning couple that just got out of the hot tub more than likely consummated their nuptials as they relaxed their muscles.\nNone of that bothers me. Usually there is enough chlorine in a hotel pool/hot tub to clear up Jessica Simpson's face before Proactiv, so little things like E.Coli and herpes are above my concern.\nThere is one thing that will ruin a hotel pool faster than anything else though. Something I've mentioned already in the blog, and something I wish there were a whole lot less of in the world.\nThey are the bane of my hotel relaxation existence. They nullify all hope of me ever having a peaceful moment during a terrible hotel experience. It doesn't matter if the hotel has the best continental breakfast in the world, if there are kids in the hotel pool I will give them a 1-star rating. Jessica Alba could personally greet me in a string bikini in the lobby, and if I took her to the hot tub and there was a kid in it I would do my best to make sure the hotel chain went out of business the next day.\nKids are terrible things.\nI've told you all that to tell you this:\nMe, The Missus and the kids went to Oklahoma City the other night. We thought we'd spend the night, then get up early and hit the outlet mall, try to score a couple of deals.\nSo I booked us a room at the Embassy Suites where we normally stay when we go to OKC, knowing it had a beautiful swimming pool and an okay hot tub.\nWhen we arrived, all signs pointed to it not being a great trip. The parking lot was jam packed with cars, more than I had ever seen at the place before.\nI looked at my family, and with a great deal of optimism, said \"Well, as long as the pool's empty, we'll be alright.\"\nI should have known then.\nWe checked in, set our stuff down, got our swimsuits on and headed downstairs. We walked around the corner and saw this.\nOnly it was indoors. And there were markedly less Chinese folks. But exactly the same.\nHere's the thing though. It was 9 p.m. Every single person in that pool was an 11-year old girl. Not only that, but every single person in that pool was an 11-year old girl CHEERLEADER.\nI have never in my life seen such a congregation of tiny cheerleaders. I don't know where they came from, I don't know where they were going, all I know is I now hate those kids more than anything in the world, up to and possibly including the University of North Carolina.\nThey were yelling.\nTHEY WERE DOING CHEERS IN THE POOL.\nBut alas! There was one saving grace.\nThey were all in the pool, and not in the hot tub. THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOR BEING A MERCIFUL GOD.\nI settled into the hot tub, closed my eyes and relaxed. Maybe this wouldn't be half bad after all, if I could just drown out the \"ONE TWO THREE FOUR GET THAT BALL BACK YAY\" that was going on in the background.\nSlowly the sound melted away, and I was a moment or two away from complete transcendence...and then it happened.\nI looked up, seconds from nirvana, and sure enough, 18 tiny cheerleaders had joined me in the hot tub.\nNow. I don't know what you would have done in that situation, but years of watching To Catch a Predator had primed me for action in moments just like that.\nI took both arms out of the water and raised them above my head like I was giving glory to The Highest, when in fact I was probably the furthest away from giving praise I had ever been in my entire life.\n\"But Travis, why would you take your hands out of the water?\"\nThat's easy my friend, it was to establish my innocence. If my hands are visible, they can't be busy doing anything else, and that is exactly the kind of alibi you need when you're in a hot tub with 200 screaming 11-year old cheerleaders.\n\"Excuse me officer, but if you'll check the tapes, you'll clearly see I had my hands above water level the entire time, and my eyes were fixed firmly on the fake palm tree to the left of the pool.\"\nThe Missus looked at me and laughed, and I began fervently praying for a minor drowning.\nThen one of the little idiots touched my leg.\nI jumped out of the hot tub like it had suddenly been transformed into a storage facility for black widow spiders.\nI stood at the side, silently cursing them all in my mind, and waited for them to get out. Eventually they did. Then they immediately got back in. Then they got out. Then they got in. The whole time saying things like \"DE-FENSE! DE-FENSE! GO TEAM GO WOOHOO WE'RE SO STUPID.\"\nAt last, more of them got out than were in, and I got back in the hot tub, hoping for some peace. Immediately after I got in, all of the tiny idiots got back in with me.\nAfter about ten seconds, a couple of them got back in the pool, and then it happened. The Lord moved. A miracle was wrought. My faith was restored. Something great and mighty and ordained and on par with the whole water into wine thing.\nOne of the girls slipped and fell and hurt her knee.\nAs she burst into tears, all of the girls rushed to her side to provide her comfort, and my face split into a thousand-watt smile like it does when I see the words \"All you can eat.\" I struggled not to laugh. I rejoiced. I came very close to eschewing my worldly possessions and pursuing a call to the mission fields of Guatemala.\nI was, to put it mildly, insanely happy. That little girl getting hurt was on par with my wedding day. Top ten moments in my life easy.\nI slowly lowered my arms back into the water, knowing I only had a few precious moments of unencumbered joy. I closed my eyes, still grinning like an idiot, and replayed the moment in my mind.\nSlip. AHHHHHHH! Slip. AHHHHHH! Slip. AHHHHHHH!\nI had finally achieved inner peace. The trip had become officially worth it. The day was made.\nSplash! ONE TWO THREE FOUR!\nLabels: Cheerleaders, Hot Tub, Hotels, Idiots, Injuries, Little Girls, Things I Hate\nTiny Cheerleaders, Hotel Pools, and How I Achieved...",

        "raw_content": "Even in death, his shadow casts far and wide\nJim Shaw was a generous friend. He gave himself \u2014 his passion for music, art, travel \u2014 to all who found their way into his life.\nShaw brightened every room he stepped into, and possessed the rare gift of making those he touched better: better musicians, better artists, better people.\nHe was an extraordinarily selfless man who always put others first. He was not likely to be seen out front; Shaw found comfort working behind the curtain, where spotlights weren\u2019t necessary: where the authentic, the real magic gets done.\nShaw died Friday, Dec. 3. He was 54 and had fiercely, bravely, elegantly fought a nasty cancer first of the colon and then of the liver for nearly two years. To the end, he was with family and friends in his Hamtramck home, where he wanted to be.\nHe was a member of the Hamtramck Plan Commission and was a quiet ambassador for the community since moving here decades ago. Traveling musicians from New Orleans, Memphis, Nashville and Asheville, North Carolina were always welcome at his home. You never knew who you might find there, or when an impromptu jam session might break out. The neighbors didn\u2019t complain of the noise. He was respectful of others in the neighborhood.\nJim was a humble giant on the Detroit music scene for a solid 30 years \u2014 maybe longer. I learned from his wife, Sandra Kramer, that his deep excursions into sound began in the early 1970s, when he saw Sun Ra in Ann Arbor. That \u201cSpace is the Place\u201d era \u2014 when interplanetary jazz and acid garage rock blues were setting all us kids free in Detroit \u2014 left an imprint on the teenage Shaw that he never lost.\nHe had a knack for spotting talent. When no one thought anything was going on in the 1980s and early 1990s, Jim and his brother Steve Shaw begged to differ. That period of basement and garage incubation begat the Gories, Detroit Cobras, White Stripes, countless others \u2014 and brought worldwide attention to the Detroit sound. But these guys were living and breathing it long before, and after, British journalists declared we were the \u201cnext Seattle.\u201d\nJim Shaw cared only about the music. The glamor and glory, not at all. He had remarkable taste. He knew what was good; and he called it out if it sucked. He listened with devotion. Back when we talked of such things, he could tell you whether the A side or B side of December\u2019s Children was better; or spot the production flaws (or clarify the misunderstanding) in Bowie\u2019s treatment of the Stooges\u2019 Raw Power.\nWe crossed paths, without knowing it in the late \u201970s, when we were drawn to the local scene at Bookie\u2019s 870. It was here that east side, west side, Hamtramck and suburban punks came together. There seemed to be a lot of westsiders, I recall, and Jim was one of them, though we didn\u2019t actually meet until he co-founded a pioneering vintage clothing and accessories business called Cinderella\u2019s Attic a few years later.\nHe and I talked recently about the same shows we attended, though independently: Captain Beefheart, the Jam, Talking Heads, Lou Reed \u2014 when Ian Dury and the Blockheads opened and were mercilessly abused by Reed fans \u2014 the Clash, PIL, the Dead Boys. Venues we haunted: the Motor City Roller Rink, Punch & Judy, the Second Chance. He was only slightly envious when I admitted I saw Aerosmith and Kiss in their first ever Detroit appearances.\nJim will be missed by my mom, whose neighborhood beauty shop underwent an extraordinary conversion via his skillful hands in 2002 and became Kramer\u2019s Barberella, a gorgeous business in the front of our house. His laughter, which filled the salon and warmed any room he entered, will be missed.\nHe will be missed by all whose lives he touched with his heart, his passion, his empathy. Detroit is a better place for his having lived in it, for shaping its music, for keeping it real. Thank you, brother Shaw, for showing us the way it\u2019s done.\nJim Shaw is survived by his wife, Sandra Kramer Shaw his mother, Patricia Shaw; brothers Pat, Steve, Jerry and Matt; sisters Lisa and Katie; and seven nieces and nephews.\nA funeral service that included a New Orleans-style marching band was held Monday at Elmwood Cemetery in Detroit. A reception featuring local bands and DJs spinning rare 45s was held at the Magic Stick that night. Additional memorial events may be held in the future.\n(A portion of this remembrance was published earlier in the Metro Times).\nOne Response to Even in death, his shadow casts far and wide\n\u201cTraveling musicians from New Orleans, Memphis, Nashville and Asheville, North Carolina were always welcome at his home. You never knew who you might find there, or when an impromptu jam session might break out.\u201d You might even find a Hungarian folk band staying at his house, as when he and Sandy opened their home to the out-of-town musicians who played my wedding.",

        "raw_content": "Answer the phone or the door, then wish you hadn\u2019t. The news, even if you expected it, will stun you. You will feel as if you\u2019ve left your own body behind too, and are hovering slightly above yourself, watching the scene unfold like some terrible TV movie.\nGag. Vomit. Shout No to the person who tells you.\nRefuse to believe it.\nTell them this happens to other people, to other families.\nNot you. Not yours.\nStumble, somehow through the raw first days. Shower. Press small pieces of bread to your lips. Sip water. Realize the desperate animal sounds you hear are coming from your own body. Wonder how it is that your lungs keep filling with air, over and over again.\nSit through his memorial service. Thank the cottony cloud of shock that makes this all feel unreal. Cling to it. It will be worse when it, too, leaves you.\nHear people implore you to be strong for your parents. Try not to scream at them. Know the truth that these people don\u2019t know: That yes, it must be an unbearable hell to outlive a child. But that the immensity of your parents\u2019 loss does not dwarf your own\u2014it fucking magnifies it. Because in losing your brother or sister\u2014the person you were supposed to live a lifetime with\u2014you\u2019ve lost your parents as you knew them, too.\nYou feel like your arm has been hacked off of you, and a leg too, and hell, all of your limbs, and now you are a battered, bleeding torso. Resist the urge to explain that to these people urging you to be strong\u2014that you have just had your limbs chopped off and that has earned you the right to not have to be strong right now. Not even for your parents. Instead of flinging words at the people who dribble these stinging, well-intentioned platitudes, simply stare. Shine them the entire, holy weight of your pain.\nHear the words pound through your head over and over again: my brother is dead. My sister is dead. These words are nudging you across the bridge from your old life, where your sibling was alive, to your new life, where they\u2019re not. It is not a bridge you wanted to cross\u2014you hate this bastard bridge. But you can\u2019t turn back.\nThis is the bridge you are on.\nSort through your sister\u2019s belongings. Think she wouldn\u2019t want me to read her journal. Wonder how it\u2019s possible that this pile of CDs and t-shirts is all that\u2019s left. Listen to your brother\u2019s favorite song, again and again, until your body is empty of liquid to make tears with.\nFall completely and utterly apart. Imagine the entire rest of your life, all the love and loss, the weddings and births, the sick days and vacations, and how damned bittersweet every single event of your life will be because your brother won\u2019t be there. Dream of the faces of the nieces and nephews you\u2019ll never have, the ghost of holiday gatherings that won\u2019t be. Ask why him? over and over again, and wait for the answer that doesn\u2019t come.\nGo for long, tentative walks. Refuse to step on wriggling worms or the small black bodies of ants. Because maybe there is someone back home waiting for them, some worm sister or ant brother, and you can\u2019t bear the thought of sending more grief in the world, even invertebrate grief.\nBe afraid to go to sleep. Not because of the nightmares. But because you might dream them alive again, and for just a sliver of a second when you awake in the sweet smudge between sleep and consciousness, you will think their death was a mistake. And the news will come thundering down. Again.\nNotice, despite yourself, small scraps of beauty: a star-patched sky. The singing face of a stranger at a stoplight. Moving water. Let the thought wash over you, for just a moment: you will be okay.\nScream at your sister. For leaving you behind. For ruining your parents. For causing this terrible pit of pain.\nApologize for your rage. Forgive her.\nForgive yourself. For being alive. For the times you called your brother an asshole. For not saving him. Forgive yourself, over and over and over again.\nFind someone else who has lost a sister or a brother. Discover there is a silent army stretching all across the earth made of people who are walking across the same bridge as you. An entire troop of torso people. Imagine them, in India, in Wisconsin, in Argentina.\nApproach the anniversary of her death. Be wary. It looms like a portal, making you think, for a sick second, that you can bend back time, that you can stop it from happening. Meet the day anyway. Let loose a bouquet of balloons. Write your brother a letter. Go to the ocean. Order his favorite pizza. Go to sleep and awake the next day, surprised that it still hurts this much, surprised you have survived a whole year without him.\nWish more time away. Let it pour over you and do what nothing else can\u2014soften the throb of your phantom limbs. Let it push you across that shitty bridge. Let it show you what is still here\u2014your sharp mind, your sinewy heart, a future that is not the one you wanted, but the one that is, nonetheless, waiting for you.\nHesitate when someone you\u2019re just meeting asks you, \u201cDo you have any brothers or sisters?\u201d Hold your breath as you weigh your answer. Know that anything but the awkward truth will feel wrong.\nNotice that you haven\u2019t cried in a day, a week, two weeks. Feel grateful for the terrible strength of the human spirit, for the press on and on and on.\nLive your sweet, hard, singular life. Have a son whose eyes will be a carbon copy of your brothers\u2019. Build something strong and beautiful. Whisper, I miss you into the flesh of your pillow.\nStand back and stare at the bridge you\u2019ve somehow crossed. You were there, and there, and there. You have walked to a land you\u2019d never imagined. You are used to it now, except on anniversaries and also Tuesdays. But you will always wish you hadn\u2019t had to walk across that damned bridge.\nimage by Ben White via Unsplash\n\u00ab If You\u2019re Struggling with the Holidays, You\u2019re Not Alone.\nDo You Ever Miss This? \u00bb\nDonna Barger says\nIt was just two years for me since my brother passed, and when I just read your post, you nailed it all! He was younger than me, only 46, and it was sudden and sad, changed all of our lives forever. Your post is just a reminder that there are others like me out there.\nThanks Donna. I\u2019m sorry for your loss. Those anniversaries can be so hard.\nKaren Hickman says\nI have been trying to say these words for 47 years, since I lost my brother in Vietnam, seemed to me like nobody wanted to hear them. And now, you have just written everything I wanted to say and have bottled up inside of me except for a few times when I just couldn\u2019t swallow the words any longer and lost complete control. And then being told not to lose control,that I was different somehow because I couldn\u2019t let go.I never got to grieve, nobody was there. But i have grieved since 1970 and will continue to grieve until I am gone. I live life but I always feel like something is missing, and something is. \u201cMy Brother, my best friend and worst enemy at times growing up. Life changed that day, when we were told about my brother, and it has never been the same. So many more tragedies have happened and at times I wondered how much more can one person take, and then.. I stop, and continue on for him, for my Dear Mother, who could not bear the pain of the loss of her first born and went to be with him. I continue on.I now have children that are grown, grandchildren, they are all growing older every day. And I continue my crusade to keep My, \u201cBrothers and Mothers Memories alive.\u201d I know the pain, I have been there to the bottom, and all I can do is keep my head above water and help others, in doing so, that helps me. Thank You for your story,it helps to know not all of us grieve alone.\nOh, Karen, I\u2019m so sorry for your losses, and for the fact that you weren\u2019t able to express your pain. Hugs to you, you are definitely not alone.\nThank You Lynn, I am finally hopeful in knowing I am not alone in this\npain of being a Gold Star Sister and a Surviving Daughter of Suicide.\nThank You for your story, If you would give me your permission could I share your story with other Gold Star Siblings? I understand if you would rather not.\nIn any case, Thank You.\nYou\u2019re of course welcome to share a link to this piece. Or did you mean share in a newsletter or something? Let me know what you were thinking. Thanks,\nMary Giroux says\nWHere is the link? I want to share this. I have had to bury two children. The most recent, November 12th. My Daughter and Son are devastated. I would like to share this with them.\nMary, I am so sorry to hear of the losses of two children. That is more than anyone should have to bear. I believe Karen is referring to my blog post above, but you might also forward this to your kids: https://www.huffingtonpost.com/lynn-shattuck/loss-sibling_b_4843824.html\nSofija says\nThank you for sharing the raw, honest truth of each part of the journey of losing a sibling. The last paragraph says it all. Your blog is a ray of sunshine\u2019s clarity for all us crossing this bridge. Much Love xx\nThank you for your kind words. Hugs to you.\nAmazingly accurate. <3\nThis is hauntingly beautiful and oh so true. Tomorrow marks two months since my sister passed after fighting leukemia. Some days the grief is overwhelming and other days I\u2019m amazed at how much I have accomplished.Thank you <3\nSara, I\u2019m so sorry for your loss. You are in the thick of it. Hugs to you.\nThank you. It was a long and difficult battle. She was just 31 and made it to see her son turn two. While I\u2019m relieved she\u2019s no longer suffering, I still don\u2019t want to believe it\u2019s true.\nMy 33 year old brother just passed on April 26. He survived a horrific near death motorcycle accident 7 years prior.to being diagnosed Nov.2016 with Leukemia. I\u2019m so thankful I found this site filled with hope and sharing. Support really does help.\nMarta, I\u2019m so sorry to hear about your brother\u2019s death. Much love to you.\nThis is fantastic. My brother took his own life just 2 years ago at the age of 22. I am now his age, it is a strange feeling. I applaud you for writing this \u2014 it is very emotionally accurate. I am sorry for your loss.\nHi CD, I\u2019m so sorry for your loss. That must be so strange to be the age of your older brother. Hugs.\nI am so sorry for your loss \ud83d\ude41 My heart goes out to you. Thank you for commenting on your feelings about being his age. I can\u2019t relate with my own brother, who died in the womb, but I am the first of my siblings to reach 32, the age my dad was when he died. March 11th, in the evening, I will be officially older than he was. It\u2019s been very hard, but something few seem to understand.\nMay you come to find deep healing and comfort.\nThis is so beautiful and spot on Lynn. Thank you for your words. As a hospice social worker I thought I understood grief. That was until a few months ago when I lost my 29 yo brother. Your words have expressed my journey better than I have been able to. It is a difficult bridge to be on and I have been discouraged how there are no groups or outlets for sibling loss. Thank you for recognizing this loss as significant.\nHi Laci, I\u2019m so sorry for the loss of your brother. I know how hard it can be to feel alone in this loss\u2013 I still don\u2019t understand why there aren\u2019t more resources. Thank you for reaching out, and thank you for the work you do as a hospice social worker.\nLynn Shattuck, just thank you. I\u2019ve stared death in the face with leukemia, & have had chats with my loved ones\u2026 never easy. But so necessary. Your words have come so close to my thoughts. healing?\nLynn Shattuck,just thank you.I\u2019ve stared death in the face with leukemia, & have had chats with my loved ones\u2026 never easy. But so necessary. Your words have come so close to my thoughts. healing?\nThank you Cindy. Many hugs to you.\nI literally sobbed reading this. Since the DAY of my sisters funeral people have told me I should be \u201cover it\u201d. Thank you for putting what I have been feeling for 37 years into words. I feel normal for the first time since she that drunk driver sold her from me. Thank you\nOh, Maura, I\u2019m so sorry. I don\u2019t think we get over it, ever. Love to you.\nDonna Lormand says\nYou\u2019ve captured my feelings so well. My sister passed away suddenly seven months ago. And it was a Tuesday. And I didn\u2019t get to say goodbye. We were so close, like twins growing up, just a year apart. There are things I know about her that no one knows. I miss her so much. I don\u2019t think I\u2019ve crossed the bridge yet. But I have begun to see the beauty in life. I\u2019ve begun to live again\u2026 Only because that is what she would want. Thank you.\nI\u2019m so sorry, Donna. No, I think the bridge takes a long time to cross, and your loss is so recent still. Hugs to you.\nThank you for speaking the words that I have Felt every since 11/5/15. My brother fought a 7 month battle with leukemia and even though life never will be the same.. these words express every emotions that I have felt\nErica, I\u2019m so sorry about your brother. Thinking of you.\nThank you so much for this. It is a perfect summary of everything I have felt since my brother\u2019s death. Wednesday will mark 2 years since his murder. Thank you for putting into words what my heart has felt for every one of these 726 days ?\nOh Jennifer, so sorry about your brother.\nMy brother Michael passed away 11 years ago he was in a motorcycle accident he had just turned 37 & it literally destroyed my family & nothing has been the same not a day goes by that I do not think of him there are days that I physically feel sick I wish he was still here\nRIP Michael Angelo Benedetto\nSeptember 2,1968-September 4, 2005\nGina, I\u2019m so sorry. Heart-breaking. Hugs to you.\nLinn lockhart says\nI do not believe I\u2019ve ever read such an accurate description of my life just over one year in. There is such a strange comfort in sharing loss. Yet, it is still comfort.\nLinn, I totally agree about the strange comfort. I\u2019m sorry for your loss.\nNoelle Ellis says\nYES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES!!!\nThank you from the bottom of my heart for writing this. Love to you.\nThanks, Noelle, for reading it! Love to you as well.\nMy only sibling, my sister, died when she was 21 in a crash. It\u2019s been 21 years since her death. My in-laws have repeatedly referred to me as an only child. Even though they never met her, even though it\u2019s been all these years\u2026I want to punch them in the face. Every. Single. Time.\nOh Amy, that sucks. I\u2019m so sorry. I would totally want to punch your in-laws in the face, too. Hugs.\nMary hook says\nI lost my brother 37 years ago\u2026still miss him and it still hurts but not as sharp..life goes on but 0 yes I think of the nieces and nephews i didn\u2019t have aware of him not being there for weddings, births, holidays .we survive we go on we cross the bridge we didn\u2019t want to cross\u2026\u2764\nWell said, Mary. Thank you for reading and commenting.\nJulie Kostka says\nThank you for writing about this. It\u2019s a topic that needs more words in publication. I was lost when my sister died, and still feel like I\u2019m without a rudder in those moments when it hits me: She won\u2019t keep my memories honest, won\u2019t help me through the old-age years, won\u2019t help me keep alive the reality of our youth or the pain of the decline of our parents; she and I won\u2019t keep our pact to warn each other of the craziness that we saw creeping into the lives of our older family members. The loss of a sibling is a real tragedy that many people can\u2019t relate to. You lose not only a piece of your history, but a piece of your future. Life won\u2019t be the same again.\nThank you, Julia. What you said resonates so much with me. Hugs to you.\nOh Julia. As I\u2019m still early in the process, it\u2019s definitely helpful to see it put so eloquently into words. Keeping the memories honest really struck a chord. Hugs to you.\nThanks Julia. Your last three sentences are so raw and real. These words can only make sense to the souls that have lost their sibling. Go gently on your journey. Much Love xx\nLibby Zaheri says\nI am in the early stages of crossing this bridge. I lost my older brother on Novemeber 3, 2016 in a motorcycle accident at 43.,I\u2019m 40 and our other surviving brother is 46. We are all devastated. These words say exactly how I feel. Everyone keeps telling us to take care of our parents, age 73 & 79. I just want to scream at them. I can barely hold myself together. We now have his beloved dog(he had no children) and we are getting through this together I tell him. Somehow we have to.\nLibby, I\u2019m so sorry. Thinking of you. It\u2019s so hard.\nThis is so good. You nailed it. Your writing is very good and I appreciate your not trying to make it flowery and poetic, just real.\nSheree Johansen says\nI\u2019m so glad I found this. You couldn\u2019t have said it better. I lost my younger brother in 2007 to oral cancer. We were best friends growing up and had tremendous fights that we later laughed about. He was 45 and had 3 little kids. His family was my family too and I took comfort in that. Now time has marched on and the kids are away at college and my sister in law has met another guy and is selling their house; the one I remember my brother being so excited about and died before he could finish their basement. For a long time I searched for him even looking on the internet asking where he was. Now, last July, I lost my older brother very suddenly. I had so many memories with him and he lived in the same town as my mom. I looked to him and was so proud of him and the successful career he had. My mom is broken completely and will never get better. She is 82 and has slight dementia. She can be very difficult and I always thought my brothers would be with me when she passes on and to help deal with her in old age. My mom says I don\u2019t know and can\u2019t imagine her pain. That hurts because my brothers were my past, my present, and my future. After my mother is gone, I will have no family left. My mom says that she is alone and I have a husband like that lessens the pain of losing my brothers. When you forget for that moment that they are gone, and you think, I have to call him and tell him about my new job\u2026and then that reality sets in. I live in fear of losing my husband as then I really will be alone. Both of my brother\u2019s families are gone from my life too, other than seeing them on Facebook. Anyway thanks for writing this article for us silent sufferers of sibling loss.\nOh, Sheree that is a lot. I\u2019m so sorry for all your loss. My heart hurts for you.\nSheree, I hope, wish, and pray comfort for your broken heart. Please try and take care of yourself. I know you are loved, for you are able to give so much love. Hold on to the good memories and the love.\nGlennyth Morgan says\nLynn, you have written what I am feeling. I recently lost my older brother three months ago in a tragic snowmobile accident. He was 53 years of age and he was our rock. Our family have never experienced this type of tragedy before, so we overcome with the grief. It\u2019s strange you mentioned the idea of not stepping on ants or worms while out walking, as that\u2019s how I feel too. How can I do that as they are living creatures too and I don\u2019t want to inflict pain on their families! I thought I was cracking up, but now I see I am not alone in this type of thinking and it\u2019s part of the grieving process. Thanks for writing this article. You give me hope.\nSo sorry for your loss, Glennyth. You\u2019re not cracking up, but it sure can feel like it at the time. Grief does some pretty crazy stuff to our minds. I\u2019m glad you found my website, and that you\u2019re able to feel a glimmer of hope. Much love to you.\nJust came across your article today. I have been feeling pretty down the last couple days. Soon will be 2 years since my older brother (and only sibling) died, he was 35. I also had the luck of his death being a few days before my birthday and I\u2019ll be passing him up in age this year, and it just feels so wrong. Thank you for writing this, it perfectly explains the anger and sadness I have been going through these last couple years.\nThanks for writing. I\u2019m sorry about the loss of your brother, and that sounds especially hard that he died just before your birthday. Can\u2019t imagine the strangeness of surpassing him in age. Take good care.\nGreat blog post Lynn.\nI am so much better for it for reading it.\nMy big brother just passed just gone 5 weeks now he was 45.\nI have just emptied my head by writing the events of the entire night he passed away in hospital through cancer.\nI had the honour of doing his eulogy for the family. I think doing these two things has allowed me to cope and grieve as best as i can. We have pictures everywhere of him in the house and in the home office. I watch the funeral service for him and listen to the laughter of the 180 plus people whos lives he changed in a short 45 years. I have done a large portion of whats in your blog, and its all so very true.\nI attended my first full week of work last week, it was a welcome distraction although very fatiguing.\nOne startling thing i have noticed within myself though is that my focus on my favorite entertainment Motorsport has pretty much vanished. I have no inclination to watch it or cant be bothered, but strangely enough i have now taken up collecting coins. Two hobbies that could never be further apart.\nI\u2019m so sorry for the loss of your big brother. Such an enormous loss. I\u2019m glad you\u2019re able to write about it~ I found writing to be a huge help in processing my grief. Hugs to you as you navigate this road. Take good care.\nMadison Williams-Rice says\nThank you so much. This is the first thing I\u2019ve read that really encompassed what I\u2019m feeling. I\u2019m 23 and my brother was 24 years old. We were born 14 months apart, him older than myself. He died on April 20,2017. So\u2026 24 days ago. I am astounded by how resources there are. If you have any recommendations please let me know. I don\u2019t even know where to begin.\nI\u2019m so sorry to hear of the loss of your brother. It\u2019s so recent and huge. I know, there aren\u2019t a ton of resources but here are a few.\nI found this book to be helpful:\nhttps://www.amazon.com/Surviving-Death-Sibling-Through-Brother-ebook/dp/B001RLTFES/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1494950335&sr=8-2&keywords=sibling+loss\nAnd if you\u2019re on Facebook, this is a group for grieving siblings:\nHope this helps. Take good care.\nThank you so much for this piece. I lost my sister a little over six months ago and am still reeling from her sudden death. Your statement \u201cBut that the immensity of your parents\u2019 loss does not dwarf your own\u2014it fucking magnifies it. Because in losing your brother or sister\u2014the person you were supposed to live a lifetime with\u2014you\u2019ve lost your parents as you knew them, too\u201d is SO spot on. I came across your blog via Elephant Journal and am so happy I did. Beautiful words.\nThank you, Mary. I\u2019m so sorry for your loss. Hugs.\nYou are a very gifted writer and your blog (this piece in particular) has brought me comfort. I lost my 22 year old brother 4 months ago to suicide. Indeed I compared \u2013 in my own journal \u2013 feeling like a torso without limbs being told to \u201cbe strong\u201d or \u201chave faith\u201d. The pain is unimaginable. Thank you for sharing your feelings and journey. I take comfort in reading that there could be a future ahead, though it couldn\u2019t be further from the one I wanted.\nHi Stefanie, So striking that you used the same metaphor about feeling like a torso. Hugs to you, I am so sorry for the loss of your brother. And I understand about this being the future you didn\u2019t want. The pain does soften, but it takes time.\nTaylar McGuire says\nMy family and I are coming up on the one year anniversary of losing my baby brother cobey. On the 27th, it will be one year since I\u2019ve heard his voice. One year since I\u2019ve hugged him. One year since he told me he loved me. He was 16, and he died alone, in a silly car crash that shouldn\u2019t have taken him. I would do anything for him to be here. He was only 16. I don\u2019t know how we are supposed to move forward through this, it\u2019s like this time of the year makes it so fresh and so.. raw.\nThank you for your words. They are some of the realist ones I think I have read on sibling grief.\nI\u2019m so sorry, Taylar. I know what you mean about going through the anniversary. For me, that first year almost felt like it was happening all over again. Hugs to you.\nAmanda Hudson says\nFinally after almost 11 years I have found what I have been looking for. Others who have lost an adult sibling and have had the same feelings I had/have. I think the grief has softened slightly but still so raw.\nLife has changed and is lonely without my sister.\nAmanda, I\u2019m so sorry. I know what you mean about the grief softening. Love to you. I\u2019m sorry you\u2019re here, but glad you know you\u2019re not alone.\nI also find myself in the first year (because I went through this in 2007 with my younger brother) \u201cthinking a year ago he was alive at this time; a year ago we spent our last Christmas together but didn\u2019t know it would be our last.\u201d I knew my mom and I would survive losing my younger brother, not because it wasn\u2019t horrible, but bad things happen to other families all the time. Now July 25 will be the anniversary of my older brother\u2019s death which was very sudden and very traumatic. I have no siblings now and it is an awful scary and lonely thing to deal with. I only have my mother who is 81, lives far away, and has short term memory. I know that I will now never be the same and neither will she. I wish all of us could have meetings to talk about it because only those of us that have lost siblings are the only ones that understand. My heart goes out to everyone on this site.\nI\u2019m so sorry. To lose both of your brothers, and also be dealing with your mom\u2019s health issues. That is too much. Hugs to you.\nWhen my mom called me to let me know that my brother was not well, I got onto a plane from Seattle, USA and made it home, all the way back to the southwest corner of France, in the Basque Country. My brother needed me, I was coming, it will be alright. On Sunday June 11th, 2017, I was with him, listening to him, he was giving me instructions, God knows why! I knew in my mind he\u2019ll be alright, they are giving medication, they are taking care of him. What do I know about morphine?\nOn Monday June 12th, 2017, they called my mom\u2019s phone number. Why did I pick up the phone, I don\u2019t know. They told me to hurry up. I ran to the hospital. 15 minutes later, I was holding my brother\u2019s hand. I held him for 3 hours, until he got tired dealing with his cancer. My brother David went to sleep, and I was still holding him. 2 weeks later, I am trying to pretend that I am fine with all this, for the sake of my mom. Thank you for your blog.\nI\u2019m so sorry. That is a lot. I hope you\u2019re able to find ways to take care of yourself~ it\u2019s such a huge loss. Hugs to you.\nThank you so much for sharing this. Tomorrow will be one year since my younger brother\u2019s death, and a few days before my birthday. There is so little out there for the loss of a sibling, I just don\u2019t understand it. This is just what I needed to read today. I\u2019m so sorry for your loss.\nSo sorry for your loss of your little brother. Sending out warm thoughts to you during these tough days of the anniversary and your birthday.\nAleada Wyles says\nThank you so much for sharing your insights into sibling loss. I\u2019ve struggled with how to deal with this with my two children. Almost 2 1/2 years ago, my middle son was struck by a truck and killed at the age of almost 2. My oldest son was 15 days shy of his 7th birthday at the time, my youngest was 2 months old. I don\u2019t know how to help my oldest, he almost seems unaffected. My youngest, I worry will grow up thinking he is in his brother\u2019s shadow; although I try my hardest to make sure that doesn\u2019t happen. Anyway, thank you for sharing your story and the thoughts you have had and dealt with.\nI\u2019m so sorry to hear about the loss of your middle son. I can\u2019t even imagine how hard that must be\u2013 to lose your child and then worry about the effects the loss has on your surviving children. Many hugs to you as your family navigates this enormous loss.\nMy brother died on the 3rd of this month. Thank you for making this site, and writing. It\u2019s so nice to know someone else has survived this, because most of the time lately it feels like I can\u2019t. You are an angel.\nHugs to you, Lauren. It\u2019s so very hard. One moment at a time.\nThank you so much for articulating so well the pain I am feeling. My baby sister passed away last Saturday evening and I am heart-broken. She was 15 years younger than me and in many ways like a daughter. She was only 34 years old and scared of death. I just hope she found peace. I will miss her the rest of my life. I wanted 30-40 more years with her and to grow old together. We lost my mother 2 years ago and now this \u2013 Dad is a mess but so am I. Thank you again for your insight into my sadness.\nOh Wendy, I am so sorry\u2013 losing your baby sister is such a devastating loss. Many hugs to you.\nThank you for this. I lost my brother, my only sibling, 16 days ago. It was unexpected and I am lost. Your article helped me feel like I am not alone. \ud83d\ude41\nOh Kate, I\u2019m so sorry. You\u2019re definitely not alone.",

        "raw_content": "Betrayal, Betrothal, and Blood\nI enjoyed JoAnna Senger's debut novel (which she's been waiting to write for far too long) a great deal, even if I felt like I shouldn't. It has a horrible, if colorful, cover and it feels like she broke a whole lot of rules in writing it. My OCD and my subconscious kept triggering as if something was wrong, making it an odd read, but it's a good one nonetheless.\nPerhaps I should attempt to define what it is, because it kept me on the hop for a while my first time through, trying to figure it out.\nSenger herself calls it a 'dark murder mystery' and I suppose that's true. However, of those three words, 'murder' is the only one that's really beyond doubt as it revolves around a set of murders committed at Milady's Manor, a flamboyant hotel in the small Californian town of San Tobino. Milady's is a colourful place, each room decorated to a different theme, and someone is bumping off the clientele in accordance with those themes.\nAs the neatly alliterative title suggests, there is a darkness to it, but it's neither told as a horror story nor a thriller, even though Senger wouldn't have found it difficult at all to delve deeper into that darkness. It is a mystery in the sense that the majority of the key characters are tasked with solving the murders at Milady's. However, it's not a mystery to us for long because Senger quickly explains to us whodunit and doesn't wait too long before leaving us in no doubt as to why.\nThis led me to wonder if it was going to be a police procedural, with Detectives Karl Kelly and Vito Kostowski struggling to find anything that links the growing number of victims together. They aren't bad cops but this is small town California where murders don't tend to happen, so they're immediately out of their depth and they know it; but, they're still responsible for bringing in the perpetrator. However, we never focus enough on the cops to regard them as the driving force of the story, or at least the only driving force of the story, and the coroner and others who would fit into that procedural framework are kept at a minimum.\nAt one point it hints at becoming a legal drama, but it never does much more than hint, even within the courtroom. There's much more going on at this point in the story that keeps our attention even as the alleged killer is suffering through his trial.\nWhat it really boils down to is a character study. We're here to observe, even as most of the characters we observe are busy observing themselves. We don't watch Kelly and Kostowski run through a literary take on 'CSI', we watch them flounder around trying to figure out what they're missing. Their eyes are well and truly open but they don't see what they need to. We're not puzzling with them because we know what they're not seeing, but we watch through their eyes anyway to find a realization as to why they're stuck.\nThere are a couple of other detectives in the mix too. One is a private investigator called Emma Denning, an odd but sharp bird whose years inside don't match those outside. She's in her mid-thirties but she dresses out of the Victorian era, without any reasons given as to why. It's just who she is and we watch closely to learn more about her during those moments when the cops call her in for assistance.\nThe other doesn't become a professional until Senger's second novel, but she practices her observational skills throughout, even solving an unrelated minor crime partway through. She's Hermione Daggert, a waitress at Milady's, whose diary entries are peppered through the book, especially those which talk about the two regulars who crop up again and again in each of the threads of this story. She calls one of them Lord Byron and the other His Grayness; both are keen observers too. This side of the story is as close as this gets to a cosy, though Hermione is neither the only major character nor the dominant one.\nGiven that this is all about observation, we can't fail to do that and see a lot more than just the story in the process.\nThe worst thing about the book is its presentation. Beyond the poor cover art, the proofing is substandard, with a wildly inconsistent use of smart quotes; the name of one of the lead characters is even missing a letter in the back cover blurb. On a more subjective level, the headers are too prominent and the indents too deep. The headers are centered but the footers pushed to the outer margins. My British schooling even rails at the Oxford comma in the book's title.\nAnother thing that many may see as a negative, but I don't, is the consistently changing point of view. We don't look at this story from any one perspective. Karl and Vito's investigation is one thread, told entirely from Karl's perspective in the third person. We're also given two other perspectives in the third person, from a husband and wife whose lives are moving further apart. Hermione's diaries, however, are told in the first person. This odd mixture of perspectives isn't what most readers are going to expect and they may well find it awkward. The odd concept of justice that Senger plays with may not meet all tastes either. However, I particularly appreciated all of this for being notable bit of fresh air in a formula-ridden genre.\nThe strongest part is undoubtedly Senger's insight. Any character study lives or dies on its writer\u2019s insight and I'm happy to underline how well she does. It's a good job because we're really observing her observing her characters observing other characters and that sort of nesting has to be done right or it'll all fall apart horribly.\nI'd highly recommend that, if you're a mystery buff who wants something a little different from the formulaic norm, you look past the gaudy cover of this book and see if it shakes up your expectations of what you'll read in the future by showing you how the rules can be broken without sacrificing value. I've just enjoyed it as much on a return visit to prepare me for Senger's second book 'Reservation Ravaged' (click here for review.) ~~ Hal C F Astell",

        "raw_content": "English as official language; sharing Social Security\nPublisher Larry Tobin's Ups-and-Down column 7-17-07:\nFor more than two centuries people who came to this country may have brought their native tongue with them but they learned English. That\u2019s because virtually everyone in the United States spoke English. That\u2019s not the case now, however.\nPeople come here \u2013 too often illegally \u2013 and they want us to learn their language so that we can communicate with them! To me, that is patently absurd. I can\u2019t imagine moving to some place like Italy or Japan, for example, and expecting them to learn English to please me. I might be a lousy language technician but at least I\u2019d try.\nBut here\u2019s what really corks me! We have politicians who won\u2019t even vote to make English this country\u2019s official language! And some of them want to be president of this country! Hillary Clinton! Obama! Kerry (wanted to be)! And our brilliant pair from Wisconsin, Feingold and Kohl!\nWhy don\u2019t we just make the official language whatever the native tongue is of any ethnic group that represents five percent of the population or more? That way, all our laws and text books will have to be published in English, Spanish, and just about every other European, Asian and African dialect. Then our politicians can really baffle the electorate (and each other) because 99 percent of the public won\u2019t have a clue as to what they\u2019re saying. Teacher salaries will skyrocket because they\u2019ll have to learn 40 or 50 languages in order to communicate with their students. The instructions on how to operate a gasoline pump will take a billboard.\nBut do you know what\u2019s even worse? After all these years of worrying about whether or not the Social Security fund will be solvent by the time we get around to qualifying for the benefits we\u2019ve paid into all our working lives, these same idiots want us to share it with illegal aliens who haven\u2019t contributed a dime!\nYou\u2019ve got Clinton and Obama again. You\u2019ve got McCain this time. And Lieberman who wanted to lead this country too (further down the tube it would seem). And Brownback of Kansas who\u2019s supposed to be so conservative. And the two guys from Wisconsin again. I\u2019ve always thought that Feingold was off the wall and Kohl was all right, but now I\u2019m not so sure they aren\u2019t both out of touch with reality.\nOne of the primary reasons that Social Security has been in trouble all along is that, over time, it has been extended to people it was not intended for. Now we have a bunch of idiots in the U.S. Senate (many of whom want to be your president) who want to give it, not only to people who haven\u2019t contributed a penny for it, but who have come into this country illegally in the first place!\nI can\u2019t blame people for wanting to come here. But this is a country of law. If you want to be a part of it, obey the law. Then I\u2019d be happy to extend to you all the benefits that this country has to offer. In the meantime, I\u2019d like to see a few people in Congress visit retirement on a permanent basis.\nRe: English as official language; sharing Social Security\nPostby logic1 \u00bb Wed Jul 18, 2007 7:41 am\nnot retirement only - not to mention the people that need to acces it during their earlier years do to an unforseen disability & inability to work until the retriement age. Official language should be OUR language & Spanish as a second.",

        "raw_content": "The Origins of Padre Trade Beads\nPadre trade beads are very popular today, not just because they are antiques, but because they are a good collector\u2019s item, they make great gifts, they have sentimental value to some people, and they are still stylish.\nWe recommend purchasing your Padre trade beads at TheBeadChest.com here.\nPadre beads were originally made in China and taken to America, Africa, and India by traders. This was during the 18th and the 19th century. The name \u2018padre\u2019 originates from the fact that Franciscan priests, or padres, gave the beads to Native Americans for their good work and to convert them to Christianity.\nThe original padre beads were opaque with a sky-blue or a turquoise shade. However, African bead sellers and collectors pasted the name \u2018padre beads\u2019 to all opaque turquoise-blue glass beads, even those that were Venetian or Czech. This means padre trade beads come in all shapes, sizes, and styles since they are not made in one place. Padre beads are mentioned by Lewis and Clark and they stated that the beads helped them to trade with the natives.\nThe term \u2018trade\u2019 in padre trade beads applies to padre beads that were used to trade between the 1400s and the early 1900s. The trade was between Europeans and Africans and between Europeans and Native Americans. Most of the trade beads were made in Venice. Venetians started a bead making industry around 1,000 A.D. and they had a monopoly on the trade for over 600 years. Other trade beads were made in Germany, India, France, Netherlands, Czechoslovakia, and Bohemia. However, the very first padre trade beads were made in China. The J.F. Sick and Co was the biggest broker of these beads between late 19th century and early 20th century.\nIn Africa, padre trade beads were mostly used in West Africa by Europeans. For trade beads, the Europeans got goods such as ivory, services, and slaves. The Africans were very enthusiastic about these beads and they used them as a show of status in the society, to trade amongst themselves, and as ornaments. Before trade beads, Native Americans had used beads made from teeth, copper, and other materials for their ceremonies, for trade, and to decorate their baskets and clothes. They were therefore very receptive to padre trade beads.\nYou should note that some of the padre trade beads in the market today have been in use for hundreds of years and you should therefore not expect perfection in their overall condition. You should expect some corrosion, chips, and pitting. As a matter of fact, padre trade beads in a good condition should ring the alarm bell that they are not genuine.\nPadre trade beads are so rare that their value is increasing by about ten percent each year. They are a good investment, but you should establish their authenticity before buying. Only buy from well established sources since they are less likely to scam you and if possible, have a professional check them out for you before purchase.\nShop Padre Beads - By the Strand",

        "raw_content": "JK TYRE PRODIGY ADITYA PATEL TO REPRESENT THE INDIAN TRI-COLOUR IN THE EUROPEAN DEBUT OF JK RACING ASIA SERIES 2012\nAfter an exciting finish of the season opener of the second edition of the JK Racing Asia Series in Malaysia last month, the series is all set to make its debut entry in Europe. Round 2 of the JK Racing Asia Series 2012 is scheduled at the historical Paul Ricard Circuit in France from June 30- July 1, 2012 where it will run alongside the much acclaimed Blancpain Endurance Series and Lamborghini Super Trofeo.\nThe Paul Ricard Circuit will host two races of Round 2 of the Series with the qualifying races scheduled on Saturday, June 30, 2012 and the main races on Sunday, July 1, 2012. This will be the first visit to Le Castellet for the JK Racing Asia Series, leaving the teams and drivers without any track data, levelling the playing field. The 5.8km circuit is uniquely built on a plateau making it an unusually flat circuit. It also boasts a long 1.8km Mistral straight which can be an advantage for the drivers if their set-up is right.\nThe maiden entry of the series into Europe will also have India\u2019s youngest racing sensation and JK Tyre prodigy- Aditya Patel who will be seen in action over the race weekend. Chennai-based Aditya Patel, who created history in Indian motorsport by becoming the first Indian driver to win the gruelling 24 hours of Nurburgring held last month will be driving for the 2011 Team Championship Winners \u2013 Eurointernational.\nHe will team up with Aston Hare and Nabil Jeffri who dominated the first four rounds of the series with their stupefying performances. Aditya Patel, who took to karting at a tender age of three and started karting professionally when he was eleven years old, has been a part of the JK Tyre motorsport program wherein he has graduated from their national karting and racing championships to Asian and European levels of racing. Well versed with the track and the European style of car racing, Aditya is surely going to prove a tough competitor for the others in the championship at Paul Ricard circuit this weekend.\n\u201cWe are looking forward to our maiden round in Europe. We believe that it is a step forward and hope the teams and the drivers make the best of this opportunity. Our new racing sensation, Aditya Patel is a guest driver at Paul Ricard. He has proved his mettle in the Indian and International circuit and I\u2019m sure with his passion for motor racing, he surely won\u2019t let it be a easy race weekend for his competitors,\u201d said Mr. Sanjay Sharma, Head-Motorsport, JK Tyre & Industries Limited.\nChris Vlock of New Zealand, Briton Sean Walkinshaw will also join the current line-up for Rounds 5 & 6 competing against some of the best young stars from Asia. Vlock, started racing when he built his own race car when he was 15 years old, he has participated in the Formula Tour 1600 and the Toyota Racing Series. Walkinshaw is an active participant of the Formula Renault and is the son of late TWR founder, Tom Walkinshaw. These two drivers will also race for Team Eurointernational.\nThe first leg of the JK Racing Asia Series was held at the Sepang International Circuit in Malaysia from May 25 to 27, 2012. The race weekend witnessed the emergence of rookie driver Aston Hare from South Africa as the championship leader with 67 points. Trailing him by 5 points is Eurointernational teammate Nabil Jeffri from Malaysia. The stellar performances by Hare and Jeffri helped Eurointernational take the top spot in the team standings with 134 points, a good 34 points clear of Team Meritus GP.\nAfiq Ikhwan Yazid racing for Meritus GP who missed the 2011 crown by seven points had a forgettable outing in Malaysia last month will look to make a strong comeback and get back in the reckoning for the championship. While under rather unfortunate circumstances Yazid\u2019s teammate Akash Nandy who stands at number three, would be missing in action from the French leg of the championship due to school examinations.\nAll of the five circuits that the series visits in 2012 are Formula 1 circuits which are crucial to driver development in preparing them for higher levels of racing. The JK Racing Asia Series is recognised by the World Governing Body for Motorsport, the Federation Intenationale De L\u2019Automobile (FIA), as having special status that allows for young inexperienced drivers to participate on a National License. The reason for this is that the Series provides them with an Education and Coaching programme that teaches them all aspects of what it takes to build a career in motorsport.\nThe JK Racing Asia Series uses the 140bhp FB02, which has an unrivalled track record for training future Champions and developing them for a success with graduates at the highest level of the sport such as Sebastian Vettel, Nico Rosberg, Timo Glock, Daniel Ricciardo, Sebastien Buemi in Formula 1, Felipe Nasr and Rio Haryanto in GP2, Jazeman Jaafar, Sebastian Saveedra and Carlos Sainz Jr in British F3, and many more. This coupled with the highest safety standards, makes the FB02 the most suitable machine for up and coming drivers to learn on.\nThe JK Racing Asia Series is supported by Cody Maxx and official logistics partner, JAS Worldwide. The JK Racing Asia Series is organised by Motorsport Asia Ltd.",

        "raw_content": "The collection of waterfalls and watermills of Shushtar is a part of Shushtar Historical Hydraulic System. At the annual meeting of the UNESCO World Heritage Committee on June 26, 2009 in Seville, Spain, this collection with fifteen other structures has been registered as the Shushtar Historical Hydraulic System, and is Iran\u2019s 10th cultural heritage site to be registered on the UNESCO World Heritage List (No. 1315).\nThe collection of waterfalls and watermills of Shushtar is one of the most unusual examples used for optimal water use in ancient times. This site is a collection of dam, tunnels, subsidiary canals and water mills, which is an industrial-economic complex and is part of the large complex of Shushtar\u2019s structures, which has been repeatedly mentioned in historical books. The core of the work of this complex is as follows that; the GarGar dam blocks the river route and elevates the surface of the water due to dewatering three dug tunnels.\nThe triple tunnels lead the water into this set, and they are divided into several channels, which, after turning the waterwheel mill, then water flows like waterfall into pond areas. One of the most prominent features of the complex of mills and waterfalls is its proximity to the historic texture of Shushtar. In addition to industrial uses, the site also provided the water of the residents in dehydrated days. There is a very beautiful and unique visual feature in this collection, which is that the wastewater of these watermills creates the beautiful artificial waterfalls, which pours into the pond areas.\nThe collection of waterfalls and watermills of Shushtar due to the construction time, are masterpieces of the engineering and technology in the world. This masterpiece of engineering is unique both in Iran and in the world. masterpieces in the world. This masterpiece of engineering is unique both in Iran and in the world. Undoubtedly, considering the importance of the city of Shushtar in the periods of history and the special attention to the construction of a water facility in the area that uses sophisticated engineering techniques, we are determined in the final result that the construction of the watermills belonged to the ancient era and even to the Sassanid era.",

        "raw_content": "With all the recent talk of coming reform, it seems important to stress yesterday's conviction of human rights activist Eren Keskin. Keskin was sentenced to six months in prison under Article 301 after the Turkish General Staff filed suit against her for a comment she made to the German newspaper Der Tagesspiegel.\nCommenting on what even EU diplomats have called an unhealthy amount of involvement of the military in politics and an undue influence in judicial proceedings, Keskin told the paper, \"Politics in Turkey is dominated by the military; no Turkish civilian government will ever be able to enforce its program against the generals.\" The Turkish General Staff claimed that the comment insulted the military and was therefore illegal under Article 301.\nShe was sentenced in a hearing that lasted no longer than 15 minutes.\nKeskin's case has failed to attract much attention since yesterday's skimming of New York Times was the first time I had heard of her. The Times included a small news brief of her conviction from Agence France-Presse. It is sad that not more attention is given to such cases as such a shaky conviction would surely make news had it happened in other countries. However, as I write in my post of March 13, most Article 301 convictions rarely make headlines.\nAccording to Today's Zaman, Keskin had been convicted once before in 2006 for comments she made regarding sexual assault in womens' prisons\u2014a victim of Article 301 both times. In that case, Keskin refused to pay a fine of YTL 6,000 and opted instead for the prison sentence. Keskin insists that her comments were political criticism and not an insult of the military and said she will appeal her case.\nKeskin founded the Project for Legal Aid to Victims of Rape and Sexual Assault under Custody and is head of the Istanbul branch of the Human Rights Association. No stranger to perilous circumstances, Keskin has received numerous death threats. In 2001, Amnesty International issued an alert regarding her safety.",

The aim is to teach the student up to the British Gliding Association's 'A' certificate, which requires the student to fly solo. The course takes place on Sundays from 9.30am until dusk, and its duration is entirely dependent upon weather and the individual pace of learning. As well as dual flying instruction the following subjects will be covered: Basic aerodynamics, Airmanship, Airfield teamwork, Air law and Discipline.\nThe current rates/donations to cover the cost of the course are detailed on the Rates / Donations page. The full fee is due on the day the course is started and will pay for 60 winch launches, a log book, a copy of \"Laws and Rules\" and membership of the Upward Bound Trust for the duration of the course. Should the student require more than 60 launches before going solo, then these will be paid for by the individual at club rates. After completing the course and flying solo the student will become eligible to receive the 'A' certificate awarded by the British Gliding Association.\nRegular attendance is very necessary to make the training worthwhile and to become part of our team. You must also be at least 14 years old and able to pass a simple medical before flying solo. As a rule we do not accept potential students younger than 14 on the solo course, though they can take part on a One Day Course and be accepted on to the waiting list for the Solo Course.\nHow To Apply For The Solo Course\nTo apply for the Solo Course, complete the Solo Course Application form that can be downloaded from the forms page and send it to the Solo Course Secretary with the relevant deposit.",

An aluminum grandstand structure was built, stretching behind the backstop from dugout to dugout. The middle section features chairback seating, while other sections provide bleacher seating.\nIncluded in the construction of the grandstand structure was an enclosed press box atop the grandstand, with room and hookups for live audio/video broadcasts. A concession area was also built at ground level into the grandstand as well.\nDown the left-field line, a pair of batting cages were installed, enclosed by mesh netting.

Get over here.\u201d\nThose words were the sum total of his K2 interview, Miller said, and no one had so much as asked him his name.\nIt was a phone call that changed the trajectory of his life and ultimately put him at the head of his own company. Today, some 30 years after its start, Sawbones Worldwide, known to locals as The Bone Factory, is thriving. Last summer the company started running two shifts instead of one; 130 people work there, up 30 percent from one year ago, and a considerable expansion is in progress with a new 40,000-square-foot building under construction.\nThe building, scheduled to be finished this summer, according to Miller, will have offices on the second floor and shipping, receiving and raw materials storage on the first floor. It will allow the company to consolidate the offices from two buildings to one and create more manufacturing space in the process.\nThe company, which began in the 1970s by Miller making a few bones for the University of Washington, now makes a range of products for health education: thousands and thousands of bones, according to Miller, as well as hearts, livers and lungs and ultrasound and endoscopy training supplies.\n\u201cLast year was a really big growth year for us,\u201d Miller said. \u201cThe economy was rolling, and we got swamped with orders.\u201d\nAt the time, to keep up with demand, the company added a second shift.\nIn recent years, many companies have taken their work overseas to keep costs down. Although Miller says Sawbones gets some raw materials from international sources, its new building is a sign of its commitment to staying on Vashon.\nThere\u2019s a plus and a minus to having a large company on the Island, Miller said. The minus, of course, is the expense of transporting raw materials here. But the plus, he said, is the dedication, loyalty and camaraderie of the people who work there.\n\u201cYou won\u2019t find that kind of environment in Seattle,\u201d Miller said, noting that the people who work at Sawbones, including himself, appreciate being able to work on the Island, where the commute is short, and there are no ferry lines to navigate. Fewer than 10 people commute from off-Island, he said.\nAfter Miller had worked at K2 for a few years and learned a lot, he said he wanted to create his own business, struck out on his own and began making plastic parts for a variety of businesses. He learned that the orthopedic department at the University of Washington was looking for a small number of plastic bones for its residents to practice on.\nAt the time, Miller said, there was nothing of the sort, and residents learned procedures via the look-over-the-shoulder method, an approach not adequate for orthopedic medicine, which is a mechanical branch of medicine with saws and drills and screws. Studies showed that when residents left their programs, their skills were not perfect yet, and it took them a few years of working with patients to become proficient, he said.\nThe lack of training supplies was a problem for seasoned physicians, too. A new procedure would be developed, Miller said, and physicians would have no way of learning it until they saw a patient with that particular problem, and the physicians learned by performing the procedure on the patient.\nNot long after its first order of bones from Miller, the UW developed a course for its residents, where they practiced techniques, and Miller made 100 bones for that course, thinking he would do that and move on to other work.\nBut the university followed its residents when they left their training and found that the residents, who\u2019d had the chance to practice on the plastic bones, were proficient when they left and did not have the two-year learning curve that other residents had. The university published an article with its findings, and soon every medical school as well as orthopedic companies called Miller wanting bones, he said.\nTwo to three years after he began, Foss\u2019s long-time friend Denzel Miller joined him. Denzel Miller has focused on sales and marketing, and Foss Miller has focused on the engineering.\nThe business has grown consistently over the years, Miller said, with the only significant downturn coming when the Clinton administration tried to reform health care in the 1990s.\nBig companies did not know what was going to happen overall, including to their profits, and held on to their money more tightly, Miller said. Given that experience, Miller suspects that the election in November may effect Sawbones because, as he said, each of the candidates is talking about how he or she will drive down costs, and the orthopedic companies may again be uncertain how much money they will have for training purposes.\nHighs and lows are the ways of business, Miller said, and hopefully companies are nimble enough to weather them. As he looks ahead to the next 10 to 20 years, Miller said he believes the prognosis for his company is a good one.\n\u201cThere are 17 million baby boomers,\u201d he said, \u201cand many of them will need new hips and knees.\u201d\nHere on Vashon, the people of Sawbones will make the products that will train the doctors to care for them.\nMukai Farm: A beloved place with an uncertain future",

        "raw_content": "History of vodka\nThere is hardly a person in the multilingual world that surrounds us who, if Russia is mentioned to him, will not think of vodka. Of course, it is one of the many symbols of our country, such as nestling dolls, caviar and brown bear\u2026\nThe vodka association is absolutely normal, natural and correct, for this drink has long been an indispensable part of Russian life; a necessary element of the most important events in our life, for example, weddings, departures on a long trip, birth of a human being, or a funeral repast. In late modern Russian history, there was a period of time when a bottle of vodka became a kind of national currency, which was used to pay for all sorts of small services, and this way of payment was preferable to cash payments. Also, in the beginning of the 1920's during a serious financial crisis when there was a shortage of monetary units, vodka labels served as cash in Siberia! This drink also plays a significant role in the Russian language and folklore. In other words, vodka is an important component of Russian life, an element of national identity and everyday culture.\nUnfortunately, the centuries long history of this alcoholic drink, which includes many bright and sometimes dramatic episodes, has not been well studied. In many countries of the world museums dedicated to traditional national drinks opened a long time ago. For instance, there is a museum of cognac in France, museums of beer in Germany and Czech Republic. In Russia, which, unfortunately, always had problems with historical memory, there had been no museum of vodka. In St. Petersburg (which is about to celebrate its 300th anniversary and rightfully bears the name of the city of museums) there are museums devoted to dolls, railway transportation, banking, political police, even gramophones and phonographs and now\u2026the Vodka Museum. The Vodka Museum was transferred from St. Petersburg to Moscow not by chance. It is quite symbolic that the museum is now situated in Moscow, which is the historical place this famous drink originates from, XVth century being the starting point of its history. The museum appearedwithin the precincts of the Kremlin in Izmailovo, a unique historical and architectural complex, for pleasure of tourists and guests of Moscow. In all fairness, we have to say that several attempts to make exhibitions dedicated to vodka have already been made in our country.\nLet us enter the door of the Vodka Museum and feel the atmosphere of the long gone centuries. Listen to the unhurried story of what is the real vodka, of when its manufacture began and the role it has played in the history of Russian civilisation.\nThe guests of the Vodka Museum have a unique opportunity to see that the process of wine distillation (the original name for vodka production) was very up-to-date for that time period. In the museum halls the visitors can see an originally made installation, showing a Russian monk by the first distillation unit equipped with all the necessary devices and, first of all, with a coil pipe!\nEvery visitor of the Museum can get a feeling Peter's personal orders in the halls devoted to the first quarter of the 18th century. A number of items of the exhibition are connected with such a mysterious phenomenon of Peter's times as the games of \u00abPrince-Pope\u00bb and \u00abPrince-Caesar\u00bb as well as \u00abthe craziest, most-joking and most-drunk council\u00bb. A drunk crowd of about 200 men rode along the streets of Moscow in sleighs pulled by pigs, goats or bears, entered the yards of noble Muscovites in order to \u00abpraise\u00bb them and demanded treat and reward for it. The portraits of the terrible \u00abPrince-Caesar\u00bb F. Yu. Romodanovsky and \u00abthe most joking father Ioanikita, patriarch of Presburg, Kokui and all Yauza\u00bb (Nikita Zotov, the governor of the young Peter the Great) are in the Museum's collection, as well as many other illustrative materials that help visitors to understand all the aspects of the times of Peter the Great. The staff of the Museum satisfy the curiosity of all those interested in the personal preferences of the Russian emperors in alcoholic drinks. They will tell visitors what was poured into the famous \u00abCup of the Big Eagle\u00bb, what Peter the Great's grandson, the \u00abchance visitor of the Russian throne\u00bb, Peter the Third drank on each of the 186 days of his reign, as well as what drinks and foods \u00abthe Russian Hamlet\u00bb, emperor Paul the First preferred\u2026\nIn the Museum visitors can see vodka bottles of different sizes, from shkalik (or kosushka) to shtof and quarter. The pride of the Museum is the bottle produced at the Kronshtadt table wine distillery in 1862. The museum guides can explain to visitors what chekushka is, how big the traditional Russian cup (charka, cheporuha) is, how drinking houses, or kabaks, are different from tractirs that appeared in Russia in the 1880's, and what kinds of vodka were the most popular among members of different social groups. The choices were very wide: \u00abSmirnovskaya\u00bb, \u00abPetrovskaya\u00bb, \u00abPopovka\u00bb (produced at the distillery of widow Popova) and \u00abPshenichnaya\u00bb (wheat), \u00abRusskoe Dobro\u00bb (Russian goods) and \u00abDvoinaya Gor'kaya\u00bb (double bitter)\u2026 This list could be continued forever\u2026 In the beginning of the 20th century there were more than 5000 wineries in Russia located in St. Petersburg, Moscow, Nizhny Novgorod, Kazan as well as in other cities.\nA very special item of the Museum is a bottle for the famous \u00abMoscow Special\u00bb vodka, which was called the Russian national drink by contemporaries and was patented by the government in 1894.\nThe larger part of the Museum's collection is devoted to the 20th century with all its upheavals and sharp turns of historic fate.\nA part of the collection is devoted to the Great Patriotic War and particularly to the story of introducing a daily ration of vodka for the soldiers of the 1st line of the front-line forces, which is traditionally called \u00abCommissar's 100 Grams\u00bb. The document that stipulated the ration was found in the archives. It turned out that it was not the command of the People's Commissar for Defence, but decree #56200 issued by the State Defence Committee on August 22, 1941 and signed by the chairman of the committee, Joseph Stalin.\nAfter the war (this part of the exhibition is quite extensive) new measures were introduced to improve the quality of vodka and new technologies came to life.\nFollowing the story of vodka from the early centuries, the Museum halls bring visitors to contemporary Russia, at the beginning of the 21st century, and tell them about the current state of production and consumption of the 40\u0454 strong drink.\nNowadays the companies \u00abRussian Standard\u00bb - vodka \u00abImperia\u00bb and \u00abRussian Standard\u00bb, as well as Moscow \u00abKiN\u00bb - vodka \u00abMatrioshka\u00bb and \u00abKatusha\u00bb, are considered to be the producers of the high-quality vodka.\nYou can book the excursion by phone +7 (499) 166-50-97\nRussia, Moscow, Izmailovskoe Shosee, 73\"G\"\n\"Kremlin in izmailovo\"\nWork time every day from 10:00 to 20:00\nEmail: museumvodka@mail.ru\nvodkamuseum.ru \u00a92019. \u0412\u0441\u0435 \u043f\u0440\u0430\u0432\u0430 \u0437\u0430\u0449\u0438\u0449\u0435\u043d\u044b",

        "raw_content": "By Mary Shustack INSIDE OCTOBER 2013, WAG WHERE ARE THEY NOW October 1, 2013\nPhotograph courtesy of Kurt Kannemeyer\nTo say Kurt Kannemeyer is a determined man would be an understatement.\nWAG has been following Kannemeyer\u2019s story, introducing him in June\u2019s travel-themed issue and checking in again in August, when we looked at those who go above and beyond for wellness in all its forms.\nIt was then that the director of development for St. Christopher\u2019s in Dobbs Ferry attempted to reach the top of Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania. He made the climb to raise funds for and awareness of the work of the residential treatment center, which serves special education students.\nCatching up with Kannemeyer on a recent morning, he talked about the challenges \u2013 and the success \u2013 of his trip.\nOh, he didn\u2019t make it to the summit.\nIn fact, altitude sickness caused him to stop at 17,000 feet, just 2,341 shy of the peak. But as those who know Kannemeyer might guess, he does not consider the trek a failure.\n\u201cI think sometimes people lose the importance of trying, because we are so fixated on getting to the goal,\u201d he said.\nAttempting something monumental \u2013 preparing, then getting out there and giving it your best \u2013 is what should be recognized.\nAfter all, Kannemeyer said, \u201cThat in itself is victory. That in itself is success.\u201d\nKannemeyer, who was dealing with a previously undisclosed irregular heartbeat, took the outcome in stride from the moment he realized he would not top Kilimanjaro.\n\u201cI wasn\u2019t sad. I wasn\u2019t sad at all. Every time I would look back, and I would see her, I was like \u2018I\u2019ll be back.\u2019 I will see her next year.\u201d\nHe got more out of it than he ever imagined, especially as he talked to the team of porters and guides who would accompany his party of four climbers on the eight-day odyssey.\n\u201cI saw Tanzania through the eyes of its people,\u201d he said. \u201cThat\u2019s what I experienced.\u201d\nAnd it made him think of his own life, which saw him journey from South Africa to a role helping American students through the work of St. Christopher\u2019s.\n\u201cIn America, we have so much to be grateful for.\u201d Kannemeyer has been receiving support from his friends, colleagues and even the students since his return.\nOne student\u2019s reaction, he said, was particularly heartwarming: \u201cMr. Kurt, you made it so high for us.\u201d\nAnd he said he was quick to reply that \u201cYeah, but I\u2019m not stopping now. I\u2019m going back.\u201d\nMany memories, including moments of sheer awe, will keep the dream alive.\n\u201cI stepped out of the tent at 13,000 feet. The picture I will never forget, never, never forget. I saw the earth covered in a blanket of white.\u201d\nAbove the clouds, Kannemeyer would continue the journey. It had been a steady-if-difficult trek that would suddenly take a turn for the worse.\n\u201cIt\u2019s amazing how the body reacts to altitude,\u201d he says. But it wasn\u2019t his heart condition that came into play. \u201cIt\u2019s strange because I didn\u2019t come down because of that.\u201d\nInstead, he would battle the altitude sickness that affects so many.\n\u201cSomething strange happened when I got to the 17,000-foot mark,\u201d he said.\nHe began vomiting, had a massive headache and started to get dizzy. The guide was more than concerned.\n\u201cHe said, \u2018I think it\u2019s time for you to maybe consider turning around,\u2019 and I said, \u2018No. It\u2019s for the kids.\u2019\u201d\nHe proceeded a bit, but each step became tougher.\n\u201cI knew it was altitude. What went through my head was like, \u2018Why now?\u2019\u201d\nFinally, the guide stepped in.\n\u201cHe said, \u2018I know you\u2019re a very determined guy.\u2019\u201d\nAnd then he offered words that would make all the difference.\n\u201c\u2018The mountain will always be here, but sometimes we won\u2019t,\u2019 he said. \u2018Let\u2019s go down.\u2019 At that point, I looked at him, and I said, \u2018OK.\u2019\u201d\nBut that was not the end of the story.\n\u201cI said to him, \u2018I am going to go down, and I\u2019m going to come back next year, and I\u2019m going to do this, and you\u2019re coming with me,\u2019 and he said, \u2018OK.\u201d\nThen Kannemeyer said he felt a sense of achievement that only grew as that day ended.\n\u201cI\u2019m standing on the side of Kili, and it looked like somebody had taken a paintbrush\u2026 It looked like someone had painted a plethora of stars. The full moon ricocheted off the side of Kili.\u201d\nAt that moment, Kannemeyer said he looked out over the scene and realized one thing: \u201cI said \u2018Wow. I made it.\u2019\u201d\nHe shares a quote that hangs on his office wall: \u201cNever give up on something you can\u2019t go a day without thinking about.\u201d\nAnd he is taking that to heart, already beginning to work toward next year\u2019s return.\n\u201cI\u2019m going to prepare myself even harder,\u201d he said, noting he\u2019s going to seek equipment and training sponsorship.\nThe trip\u2019s fundraising side was also a success. To date, Kannemeyer reports the effort has netted close to $10,000. Next year, he hopes to raise $25,000.\nAll proceeds will be used to fund an endowment for St. Christopher\u2019s.\nThough now back home on the other side of the world, Kannemeyer is already visualizing his reaching the peak next year.\n\u201cOne thing I do know, without a shadow of a doubt, is I\u2019m going to reach Uhuru, and I\u2019m going to hang our banner proudly,\u201d he said.\nAnd when he does? \u201cI\u2019m going to push my hands up like Rocky Balboa, and do it for St. Christopher\u2019s.\u201d\nPrevious articleNose-to-tail Holy Grail\nNext articleThe \u2018law\u2019 of attraction",

It\u2019s touch to believe that people we let into our lives can be a perpetrator,\u201d he said.\nHe said that\u2019s why he\u2019s encouraging parents to talk with their kids.\n\u201cWe talk to children about holding your hand when they\u2019re crossing the street, about don\u2019t talk to strangers, if there is a bottle in the sink that has skull and cross bones that is dangerous but we rarely talk to them about what to do if someone touches them in an inappropriate way,\u201d he said.\nThe Dallas Children\u2019s Advocacy Center and other like it are designed to make it easier to report abuse.\n\u201cThey can get an interview by a professional interviewer. The police and CPS watch that interview. We can get wraparound services for the family that are displaced because the abusers were in the home. We can get therapy,\u201d he said.\nHe encourages those who participate to post a picture on social media and tag them at @dallascac on Instagram with the hashtag \u2018ShowYourBlue18\u2019.\nThe organization is also hosting a luncheon Friday, April 20th.

        "raw_content": "Coyote Blue - A Review\nWell, my first book for the \"What An Animal\" challenge was Coyote Blue by Christopher Moore. This is the ONLY book of his I have not read. Suffice it to say I throughly enjoy his work and he is one of my favorite authors. Despite my love, this work fell short of his usual mark.\nI have always been the type of person who cannot read in bed. It does not make me sleepy in the slightest and I would greet the dawn just as I was finishing a book. But this one, was an exception to the rule. I took many naps in between chapters. It took me a LONG time to plod though. I even contemplated (gasp!) not finishing. But I did, and I can say I read it and pass it on to someone at the Paperback Swap site!\nOk, you probably want to know about the story. In typical Moore fashion, the average guy finds himself in bizarre situations. The protagonist, Sam Hunter or Samuel Hunts Alone, is a Native American of the Crow tribe who flees the reservation due to an unfortunate accident. He is guided by his totem, the Coyote. The ultimate trickster, the spirit guide morphs in and out of his life, sometimes as a animal, sometimes as a human, and grants his wish, even if it is not what Sam always wants or what he had in mind. The story drags on, especially in the middle. It is punctuated by \"updated\" Native American stories about the coyote told in today's language. I will have to say, the last 5 chapters or so were the best part of the book and held the most action and interest.\nFor me, it lacked the humor I have been so accustomed to in reading this author. Would I recommend it?? Well, only if you have read his other works first. I definitely found this a tough one to get through.\nTitle: Coyote Blue\nRead for : What an Animal Challenge\nYou're a better woman than I. I thought the book was a real stinker - I mean Baaaaaaaad. So bad, in fact, that I elected to return it to the library before finishing the first chapter!!\n\"Fluke\" was so much better, as was \"The Lust Lizard of Melancholy Cove\". Heck - ALL Christopher Moore's books were head and shoulders above this bomb!!",

        "title": "where were you | september 11th, 2001",
        "raw_content": "#1384 | Sunday, June 9th 2002\nOn September 11th, 2001, I was a third-year medical student working at Brooklyn Hospital on Flatbush and DeKalb avenues. I had just started my six-week pediatric rotation the day before.\nOur morning routine started with a case conference, where we all discuss interesting clinical cases. So, at around 9:00, we headed into a conference room for our morning meeting. Right before the meeting started, someone briefly mentioned, \"Hey, did you hear there was an explosion at the World Trade Center?\". Having been in NY for the 1993 bombing, I guess you realize the potential for a disastrous terrorist attack, but the more likely rationalization (before 9/11) was that an air conditioner exploded or something small. PERHAPS a small plane flew into the WTC. But it barely seemed worthy of attention, and we all returned to our meeting's agenda.\nWhen the meeting finished at about 9:30, I started to walk out of the conference room when one of my classmates ran through the hall saying, \"Oh my god, one of the Twin Towers fell!\".\nI could hardly believe it -- It seemed SO impossible. Falling? You've got to be kidding me. This isn't some movie.\nHowever, I do have a best friend who worked in the WTC. At that point, starting to believe one of the towers might have actually fallen, I started to worry. I could feel my heart racing.\nI ran upstairs to the Nursery (where I was that week) to check out the TV (good for late night nursing), and to find out what was going on. The TV was on and all of the nurses were standing around it, looking on in disbelief. A PA student I was rotating with, Scott Fleck, followed me as I ran into the room.\nOn the TV, all I saw was one tower still standing, burning, and the other collapsed. Suddenly, all I could think about is my best friend. He just started his job there about three weeks ago. Which tower was he in? What floor was he on, again? I started to completely panic. I was really worried that he was in the building.\nI started to react in a strange way, kind of a cross between crying and hyperventilating. I picked up the phone and called his apartment - Nobody was there. I called his dad. I left him a message, asking him to call my cell phone if he knew Dave was OK. I called my own parents, asking them to find out if Dave was OK, and to call me as soon as they heard anything.\nI must have looked awful at that point, because Scott the PA and the nurses in the unit started to try to calm me down. They were saying things like, \"Calm down, which building was he in? Maybe he was in the other building?\". I didn't know.\nI started to think, \"Yeah, maybe he *is* still in the standing building\", when suddenly, I watched on TV as the second tower went down, the newscaster screaming \"OH MY GOD, THE SECOND TOWER IS FALLING!!\".\nAt that point, I lost all composure.\nIt really sank in that the WTC had actually fallen. The magnitude of such an event was enormous, and I guess I realized the nursery was the last place I wanted to be. Having 5 years of experience doing EMS up in Westchester, I guess it kind of came naturally to me to tell the nurses, \"I don't think they need me here right now\", and I left (with Scott in tow) to go down to the ER.\nScott and I rode the elevator down to the basement, where the Brooklyn Hospital ER is located. I walked through the ER once. All I saw was chaos. Attendings were ripping up big pieces of cardboard to be used as signs to organize the patient flow. Nurses were rolling stretchers down the hall. There were a few patients covered with dust from head to toe, with non-rebreathing masks on, sitting on stretchers. I stopped for a moment, and talked to one of the ER residents. She gave me a quick run-down of what she had seen on the news at that point. Loosely, it went something like this : \"They hijacked several jets, they also hit the Pentagon. The news was showing footage of people jumping from the buildings, but now they're not showing it anymore, I guess it's too distasteful. And I heard that Bush shot down a jet in Pennsylvania. The press said he didn't, but you know the\ngovernment wouldn't admit to that.\" (Note : This was her opinion, not mine, but it does show how hard it is to get the facts in a moment of chaos.)\nI walked out to the ambulance staging area (again with Scott in tow), and all I saw were thousands of people walking up Flatbush Avenue. Some were completely covered in dust. Lots were crying. I realized this was not a joke, this was not a test, this was really happening. And again, all I could think about was my best friend Dave.\nAt this point, the best way to describe my emotion was a mix of helplessness, anger, and sadness. I was crying uncontrollably. One of the residents (Mike Lynette) came up to me and suggested I sit down and relax. I didn't feel comfortable with that idea. One of my classmates, Nazli Ghafouri, came up to me and let me cry on her shoulder for a moment.\nBetween my sobs I tried to explain why I was freaking out. \"My best friend works in the Trade Center!\" Somehow it seemed really silly that I should be freaking out that much about a best friend, but since I have so little family in America, my best friend IS my family. So when the security guard came up to me and tried to get me to calm down, I told him, \"My brother works in the World Trade Center!\". He seemed to understand my anguish better.\nSo, standing in the small ambulance staging area at Brooklyn Hospital, completely surrounded by chaos and people crying and sirens and horns honking and cars unable to move... I decided to take control of my situation. I remember thinking to myself, \"If something happened to Dave, I'm at least going to fight whatever evil did something to him.\"\nWith that, I started to walk in the opposite direction of the mass of people. Scott the PA asked me where I was going. I told him, \"I'm going down there, they're going to need help.\" Scott looked like he wanted to follow me, but he looked nervous. \"Scott, seriously, stay here,\" I told him, but he seemed to cautiously follow me instead. \"Do you think we'll get in trouble for leaving the hospital?\" he asked. \"Scott, the World Trade Center just collapsed, sometimes there are bigger things to worry about than getting in trouble.\"\nWe started to walk down Flatbush avenue, towards Junior's, when we ran into another man walking in our direction (opposite the crowd). He introduced himself as Robert Cartwright, a PA who works at Brooklyn Hospital in the ENT department. Robert seemed to be answering the same call as we were. His attitude was much more in line with my thinking at that point, saying stuff like, \"I don't know, but I'm going down there to help.\" We decided to join him and walked down to Juniors, then turned right to walk towards the Manhattan Bridge.\nWith police holding all non-emergency vehicles at a standstill, Flatbush was in complete gridlock. The road going over the Manhattan bridge was basically empty to vehicles, but was moderately congested with people running away from Manhattan. I remember seeing a few odd things -- One man dragging his suitcase. Another man rolling some kind of a clothes rack.\nThe three of us walked up to the foot of the Manhattan Bridge, where there were police cars blocking the roadway so that only emergency vehicles and personnel could get through.\nWe waited there for a minute, looking at the large plume of smoke coming from the southern tip of Manhattan, and all took a moment to think twice before crossing the bridge going over. While we waited there, we were joined by another doctor who identified himself as a radiologist. I think he said he worked at Mt. Sinai or somewhere. He joined us as we stood there, listening to the sirens, and watching the occasional\nemergency vehicle race over the bridge at breakneck speeds.\nWe identified ourselves to the police standing at the entrance to the bridge, when they told us, \"You guys are doctors? We have a pregnant lady in the building over here!\"\nI'm not sure what the building was, in retrospect. It looked like some kind of a grey, concrete-and-marble, federal/school-type of building. All I know is that she was up on the second floor, and the building had some kind of a nurse/infirmary that we were able to get some makeshift supplies from. We first evaluated our pregnant mother in front of us. The radiologist put on gloves and reassured the mother that she was going to be OK. He then quickly examined her, while the rest of us prepared for an impending delivery by opening up boxes of maxi-pads and paper towels.\nFortunately, after inspecting the patient, the radiologist reported that she still had time before she was going to deliver. Great. Sensing a need for supplies (all I had was my stethoscope), we packed a plastic bag full of maxi-pads, tape, and as many gloves as we could fit, and brought it along.\nWe carried our mother down to the front of the building, and reassured her. Someone with an SUV/Van-type mobile drove up and volunteered to take her. We put her in the SUV with the nurse from the building and directed them to take her to TBH as soon as possible. I remember there being a moment where I thought, \"Shouldn't we go with her?\", but then I looked to my left and saw the enormous plume of smoke on the other side of the East River, and thought, \"She should be okay and this is not a normal situation, I think we might be needed down there.\"\nNote : I was never able to figure out who the mother was. I didn't remember her name, and when I did my rotation in OB/GYN a month or so later, none of the residents were sure who she was.\nSo the four of us walked up to the foot of the bridge again. We waited there with the officers standing guard, and asked if any vehicles were crossing over. \"Well, yeah, they're going over, but I don't know when the next one is coming.\" We waited there watching the flow of people over the bridge ebb, and when nothing came for four or five minutes, we figured we would hoof it. With the policeman's permission, we started walking over the Manhattan Bridge towards Canal Street in Manhattan.\nAs we walked over the bridge, I was in full EMS-mode. Ray Thompson, my EMT instructor from way back when, always talked about the need to be resourceful when times are tough. The example Ray always talked about was using a car visor as a splint, in a pinch. So as we walked over the bridge, I found some long steel bolts, about 18 inches long, that were lying on the side of the roadway, apparently left there by workers who were repairing the bridge. \"What great splints these could make!\", I thought to myself, as I grabbed two of them and kept walking.\nThe mood was a little strange. There was the \"Do you have a wife and kids?\"-type of talk going on among us, since now the picture was emerging more vividly than ever. But we kept walking.\nAround halfway over the bridge, an emergency vehicle pulled over, a red Buick-Regal-type car with a emergency flasher stuck onto the dashboard. The woman inside picked us up. I don't remember what she said her role was, but I remember it being sort of a peripheral role, like, \"Police Safety Officer\" or something. Nonetheless, she was in as much of a rush as we were in, and we were plenty happy to get the ride over the second half of the bridge.\nThe radiologist at this point told us, \"Listen, I'm not sure what use I'm going to be to you guys, I think I would be of better use up at the Mt. Sinai\".\nSo when we hit the gridlock awaiting us at the other end of the bridge (Canal Street was being closed and was full of emergency vehicles and other cars stuck in the confusion), we exited the car. The radiologist headed north to his hospital, and Scott, Robert, and I walked south.\nAs we walked south, we were still fighting against a big crowd of people running north. At this point, not too many were completely covered with dust. They were still crying and anxious, but there didn't seem to be anybody to treat.\nWe walked about three blocks south, and stopped in a Korean Grocery. The sun was actually pretty hot that day, and Scott was complaining of the heat. I think Robert also suggested that we get some water, not only for us, but for emergency purposes. We walked into the grocer and asked for water. I wasn't sure if we were supposed to pay for it, or not. I hoped that they didn't ask us for money, since none of us really had any.\nThankfully, when they saw us in our scrubs, and Robert in his white coat, they gave us several bottles of Evian for free. We drank them quick and packed the rest into our plastic bag / makeshift first-aid kit, and headed further south.\nAs we walked another three or four blocks south, the police had set up barricades, preventing people from trying to walk south. They let us through without a question, I guess because they figured we were medical people going down to help.\nAt one point, the sky started to get darker and there was this fine ash/dust falling all over. We actually stopped three Hispanic ladies who were walking out of the mess, and asked them for their masks, since we were walking into the mess. They happily gave us their masks and headed north while we walked south.\nWe walked only a few blocks further south, the sky getting darker, and the dust getting so bad that I had to squint to keep it out of my eyes. The space between my mask and my face became very apparent, since I suddenly tasted the dust. It felt and tasted like a cold, gritty material. I figured it was a mixture of concrete and maybe very finely ground glass\nand asbestos. Scott started to get nervous again, and Robert and I offered him the opportunity to go back, but he followed along.\nThe street followed down until we hit Fulton Street. Robert seemed excited to find Fulton street, since he told us he had worked down in the neighborhood before and knew the area. I remember Fulton was down near the WTC, but having never worked in downtown Manhattan, I didn't realize it was actually the street that crossed over the north part of the WTC complex. For some reason, I kept thinking of the Fulton Fish market, and how my high school visited the fish market back in 1988.\nAs we turned onto Fulton, the scene changed dramatically. Now the dust was very bad. Breathing was very difficult, even with a mask. It no longer seemed like daytime - When I play this part back in my mind, it seems like nighttime. Only later when I stopped to really think about it did I realize it was daytime.\nTo give you an idea of the mood at this point, I can only describe it as being similar to the final scenes in the movie \"Titanic\", when Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslett are below deck as the ship is sinking, and they see the random person running off with their suitcase, and another person running with their child and a bag of clothes. This was very similar in feeling. There was also the strange feeling that something worse could actually happen. I didn\ufffdt know if we should be expecting more, like an atomic blast, but again I figured it was probably over, and if not, this is how I wanted to spend my last moments \ufffd Trying to help someone.\nThe roads were strangely quiet. Not a single sound. Stores were all closed. Those that had metal grating in front had closed them in a hurry. Some stores had messy makeshift signs saying \"CLOSED TODAY\" hung in front of them. There was a small group of 2-3 teenagers looking nervous as they stood in front of a broken storefront, looking inside the store. I thought they might be looting, which pissed me off. I walked up to them to try to\nfigure out what they were trying to steal, since the store looked like some kind of a jewelry store, and briefly said, \"You guys aren't seriously looting, are you?\", but then they looked back at me, and I realized that if there was an altercation, the police wouldn't be there to investigate what happened to me. So I left them alone, and the three of us continued walking up Fulton.\nAnd in the midst of all of the doom and despair was suddenly this young woman, in her 20s, who was standing on a streetcorner all by herself. She had a shopping cart full of bottled water and paper cups. She was offering it to anyone who walked by, to help wash out their eyes. I thought it was peculiar that she had paper cups -- It seemed like such a nicety in the middle of all of this, kind of like making sure your suit is pressed before you're going down in the Titanic. But she stood there, alone, offering it to the few people who were still there.\nTo this day, I have no idea who that woman was, but I would like to thank her. If anyone knows who she is, please contact me. I think about her a lot.\nWe explained that we were going down to the site to look for people, and she immediately gave us a gallon of water to carry along. After exchanging brief words, we continued on. I still feel kind of bad that we left her there. I'm not sure what she had seen an hour or two earlier, but clearly she was as determined as we were to try to have SOME control over this chaos.\nThe dust was pretty thick at this point. I remember looking down and noticing it was up to my ankles. Suddenly, there were women's shoes all over the street. I was trying to figure out where they came from.\nMorbidly, I thought they might have been from the passengers in one of the jets, but more likely they were women's shoes that were quickly discarded as people fled the scene quickly.\nI also remember tripping several times over various things. Metal beams lying in the street. Papers from people's desks were blowing all over. I picked up one - I don't remember the details, but I remember it was a double-spaced legal document describing part of some lawsuit. I thought for a moment and wondered if the lawsuit was still going to happen after this.\nOnce, while tripping over debris, I dropped my glasses in the dust. They completely disappeared in the 4-5 inches of dust that laid on the street like snow. I frantically tried to blow the dust away, only to get a mouthful of the stuff back in my face, but fortunately I was able to feel for them and get them out.\nWe walked on, looking for anyone, any cries for help, when suddenly we came upon what I call \"THE STUMP\". The stump was the remaining pile of burning debris that sat there at the site of the former Twin Towers. It burned intensely. Not just a crackling-type fire, but a real blow-furnace type fire, like when they are blowing glass and put it into that inferno to melt it. The WTC was right in front of us, the pile several stories\nhigh, burning intensely. And despite the bright, shooting flames, it still felt like nighttime. The dust was so thick that the light from the flames barely reached us.\nAt that point, we realized we couldn't go straight, so we walked right past WTC building 7 and turned right to head north. The air seemed to get a little lighter, and firemen were rushing down to the rubble, carrying hoses.\nAnother interesting note : There were several cars parked along the side streets that were completely crushed by debris, but there were also several that were burned. I was trying to figure out how a car would be set on fire. Did a fireball race down one of the canyons? One of the cars that was crushed and burning had it's alarm going, amazingly. \"God will someone shut off that alarm? I hate those car alarms!\" was overheard. It shows the morbid sense of humor the firefighters were having at that point.\nWe walked further north, asking the firemen and police repeatedly if there was a triage station set up. Nobody seemed to know. We trudged on, covered in dust and still tasting concrete, and kept asking if anyone knew of a triage center. None of the police or firemen at that point had a clue. My guess is their radios were jammed with transmissions from other officers trying to coordinate bigger things.\nSo we kept walking around. At one point we were picked up by a Hatzollah Ambulance that was partly crushed, its front windshield cracked, but it was still driveable. We jumped in and joined several orthodox EMTs who were also looking for where to go. They were a very nice bunch. Apparently, they were right under the overpass that led to the WTC, when it collapsed around them, and their ambulance got stuck under part of the\noverpass. Rather than just sit there helplessly, though, they managed to wedge it out from the overpass, and kept driving around, looking for where to go.\nTheir ambulance got stuck behind a bunch of other emergency vehicles, so we stepped out (leaving our steel rod splints in their ambulance), and walked around again. Still, we kept asking the firemen and policemen if anything had been organized. Nobody seemed to know. Finally, one fireman said, \"Well, they're supposed to set something up over on Greenwich and North Moore, but nobody is here yet.\"\nThe corner of Greenwich and North Moore is an ideal place for a triage unit. It has a decent sized courtyard, perfect for setting up the triage area. It has a good stretch of street in front of it, perfect for setting up an ambulance staging area. And it has a big red metal umbrella -- A piece of modern art -- But the big umbrella made it feel safe, and was a\ngood place to tell people to meet when nobody knew the area.\nThe only problem was that there were a bunch of EMS workers, paramedics, doctors, and other volunteers standing around, but still nobody to organize it.\nWe all stood there for about a minute, waiting for updates of what we should do. At some point someone asked if we were supposed to be setting up a triage site here, and someone else yelled out, \"Yeah, but FDNY isn't here yet.\"\nAnd then suddenly I felt the need to assume some responsibility. It seemed ridiculous to wait. We should start acting now. We didn't know who our patients would be, or how many we would have, but the World Trade Center has just fallen, and we can't just stand around and wait.\nSo suddenly the leader inside me came out, and I fell into a weird position. I don't like to toot my own horn, so let me just say that it was very Forrest Gump-ish. I was just the right person with the right training in the right place at the right time. I don't think there was anything to it, really, it just needed to be done. I assumed control of the entire group.\nI can't remember exactly how I responded to the guy saying that we should wait for FDNY to show up, but these are a few of the phrases I do remember shouting:\n\"No way, wait, we're not going to wait. Okay, everyone, LISTEN UP! We're here at a time of a national disaster, the World Trade Center has just fallen. We don't have much information right now about who or how many need to be treated, but we can't just stand around. We need to set this up and I need your cooperation! I want all EMTs and Paramedics to gather over here. Doctors and nurses gather under the umbrella. I want all ambulance drivers over here!\" (Pointing to street corner for ambulances to park)\n(In front of the group of ambulance drivers) : \"I want all of the ambulances lined up over here, leave your keys IN THE AMBULANCE, and make sure they're off, I don't want any ambulances with dead batteries, and PLEASE STAY NEAR YOUR AMBULANCE, we need you to be available immediately.\"\n(In front of the group of doctors / nurses) : \"Okay, I need people to gather by whatever your specialty is, if you're a surgeon, stick with the other surgeons, if you're a pediatrician, stick with other pediatricians. Please identify yourselves by your specialties. I also need someone to be responsible for organizing the doctors.\"\n(In front of the group of paramedics / EMTS) : \"Okay, I need you guys to be our front line of defense, when patients show up here, you have to be the first to look at them and decide what to do with them. If there is something bleeding, put a finger on it. Do whatever your skills are, but you're going to be our front line.\ufffd\n(In front of the group of volunteers) : \"I need two people to be in charge of organizing the supplies that are coming in. Your job is going to be to organize it and keep it safe. I'll show you what some of the basic tools are, but you have to provide them to any worker who asks for them. I also need one of you to be in charge of organizing volunteers across the street in front of the Ryder sign. Take all of these people, organize them across the street, and try to keep track of who can do what. If there are any CPR-trained people, keep them in a special area.\"\n(To the police) : \"Can we get the crowd back here? We're going to set up a triage site here. Do you have any yellow tape?\"\n(In front of the doctors who identified themselves as emergency physicians) : \"Okay, we need to set up the triage areas, I need one person to be responsible for each area, and one person responsible for directing patients to the areas.\"\nI guess at that point Robert was put in charge of organizing triage. Meanwhile, Scott continued to complain. I'm not sure if he was bored or nervous, but he tagged along, helping where he was asked.\nThe building manager from the building had just stepped over to tell me they were making the building available for the triage effort, when suddenly I saw a group of official-looking fire officials walk up to our site, which had by this time become semi-organized. At least people were split into the proper areas, we had ambulances lining up, and people were assigned specific tasks. The police had roped off the area.\nOne of the FDNY officials was Top Eppinger, who strangely enough is a spitting image of my old EMT instructor's son. I actually thought it was him at first.\nTom stepped into our crowd and asked, \"Who's in control here?\ufffd Having worked with firemen before when I did EMS up in Westchester, I know better than to try to step on their territory, so I told him, \"I'm not in control, but I'm trying to organize things so far!\"\nI think he appreciated that. At that point, FDNY was able to come in and bring the heavy equipment. They brought in a MERV - Kind of a mobile operating room / MASH unit on a bus. We decided to park it out in front of the street, and Tom decided to move our site more towards the middle of the block.\nAt that point, I think Tom appreciated the work that had already been done, so he appointed me in charge of the medical services at the site. He would take over the fire / organizational stuff, and I would be in charge of assigning doctors to the right place, organizing the teams, getting and organizing equipment, and making sure patients were receiving the care they needed. I even got a little red fire marshal hat that I wore the\nrest of the day. (Tom said I had to wear it so he could find me if he needed to.)\nSo during the next three hours Tom and I managed to build our little triage site into a full-scale, professional emergency triage site worthy of a disaster the size and scale of the WTC attack. We had a surgical bus with several surgeons. Paris Datillo, a nurse at Methodist hospital ER, was assigned to the bus to organize materials and assist the surgeons. Paris responded to the events of the day in the most professional and efficient manner, and kept totally calm. Paris and I kept reassuring each other that things were going to be okay, despite the chaos.\nAnd so our site was set up. We had doctors from practically every medical field - Pediatrics, OB/GYN, Radiology, Surgery, Neurology, Internal Medicine, Emergency Medicine, Cardiology, and Family Practice.\nWe also had an entire team of counselors, psychiatrists, priests, ministers, and chaplains who were organizing to provide emotional support to our patients. I was really impressed with the dedication of the group, led by Richard Gins. They banded together, bonded quickly, and became a team much faster than the medical groups did. They waited towards the back of the site, setting up some of the chairs on the grassy courtyard as a makeshift counseling center.\nThe only problem was, as Matthew Klam said in his description, \ufffdwe needed bodies.\ufffd That is, we weren\ufffdt getting a whole lot of patients coming our way. And this led to frustration.\nAlthough we had treated about 10 patients by that time, mostly for minor injuries and chest pain, it didn\ufffdt seem like enough, and people were getting antsy. Of course, everyone was so anxious that the only way they could feel any control of the situation that day was to help someone. But without people there to help, it left people feeling demoralized.\nThe first sign of frustration was seen when the surgeons seemed to run off, leaving Paris in the MERV by herself. One of the last surgeons I talked to said something like, \ufffdNothing\ufffds happening here, I\ufffdm getting out of here.\ufffd With that, he left us.\nSuddenly, my cell phone managed to ring. This was a surprise, since service had been very poor. I had heard the antenna for most cell phones was on the World Trade Center when it fell, so it seemed surprising that it was suddenly working. My parents called. I told them I was okay, and they told me that my friend Dave had called in to say he was okay. Dave called me a minute or two later. I told him that I came down to Ground Zero because I thought he was in the building, and warned him never to scare me like that again. He asked me, if I thought he was in the building, what did I think I could do to help him at that point? I pondered that for a minute before hanging up on him. Looking back, I guess it was the only way I could feel any control over the thought of having lost him as a friend.\nAs the afternoon wore on, and people were getting tired, Marianne McCune, a reporter from NPR, came by our site. She wanted to give a report live, but her cell phone had run out of power. She borrowed mine and was able to give her report. After making the call and being on the air live, she interviewed me and recorded the interview on her tape recorder, as I described the layout of the triage site. Her report was later aired (I had friends in North Carolina and Massachusetts tell me they heard me), but I have been unable to find it on the NPR web site.\nAlthough people were getting frustrated without more patients, there was actually a moment of excitement mixed with panic when 7 World Trade Center seemed to buckle, and finally collapsed as we all stood by on Greenwich Avenue and watched. I didn\ufffdt realize how close we were, but when it collapsed, the smoke came up the canyon towards our site, setting off a stampede of scared people. The stampede almost ran over everyone in our site, while I yelled \ufffdSLOW DOWN!! DO NOT PANIC!!\ufffd at the top of my lungs, leaving my voice sore until the next day. It was odd to watch 7WTC fall down. It almost seemed unimpressive, compared to the destruction that was already there, but a new plume of smoke certainly scared people. I understand some people in our counseling group were physically injured as the crowd broke through the yellow tape and rushed our triage site.\nAnd yet, people were getting more frustrated. Tom, the lieutenant from FDNY, told me he was concerned that people would start leaving, and we would suddenly be put into action with half of our group missing. So we decided we would make a real effort to keep up morale.\nFortunately, Matthew Modine, the actor and star of movies like Full Metal Jacket, Gross Anatomy, and As The Band Played On, stopped by. He tied a piece of yellow police tape around his arm (the sign that we were using for \ufffdpeople who belonged on the site\ufffd) and joined us. Mr. Modine was very nice. I talked to him and thanked him for coming down, and he said something to the effect of \ufffdwhatever I can do to help support you guys, I\ufffdm here.\ufffd I actually think it helped people from getting frustrated. At least if there is a celebrity at your site, people think it\ufffds worth sticking around for.\n(I was also able to tell Mr. Modine that the movie And The Band Played On was one of the reasons I went to medical school \ufffd He told me he was flattered to know one of his movies had made a positive impression in someone. Odd to have that kind of a conversation amidst all of the chaos and confusion, but he was very nice to stop by and hang around for a while.)\nThe group of volunteers across the street in front of the Ryder sign had now swollen to hundreds. People were coming up to me constantly, asking how they could help. A few people stand out in my mind. One man could barely speak English but said \ufffdI am a metal cutter, how can I help?\ufffd Another man told me he was a rescue worker in Israel and wanted to help. Another man told me he was from Poland but was a construction worker and wanted to help dig through the rubble. I had to focus on keeping up the medical effort of our triage site, so I sent them all over to the corner under the Ryder sign.\nAs the evening started to set in, Paris and I kept joking with each other, making a genuine effort to keep up morale at our site and keep people interested. Unfortunately, darkness started to set in. We had set up emergency lighting so that we could keep our triage site running well into the next day, but at around 8:30pm the decision came from Lieutenant Eppinger that FDNY had ordered our site to close.\nOur total patient count? 19 patients. We treated a few patients with chest pain and respiratory distress, but most were patients with minor bruises and cuts, and a few came to us just to have the ashes washed out of their eyes. Even our fearless counseling team was demoralized, having been unable to offer assistance to any of the firemen who came to our site after having lost so many of their co-workers.\nAt that point, I informed the various medical team leaders that the site was officially closing up. I asked people to stay to help put the equipment into ambulances so that it could be brought to St. Vincent\ufffds hospital for further use, but of course, people generally don\ufffdt like to clean up after their mess. So I ended up cleaning up the site with a few other key leaders, until about 10:00pm. And around that time, I started to head uptown with Robert Cartwright, Scott, and Scott Caruthers, one of the ministers in our fearless counseling group.\nAs we walked north on Greenwich, now dark and empty, we passed several fire trucks loaded with firemen. The firemen were covered with the soot and ash from the collapse, and were collecting their hoses and fixing some of their gear. Everyone was so tired from the day we had all just had. Although our medical team was completely exhausted, I knew their day was far from over. I gave them all a tired smile and said thanks to them, as we walked on, looking for a subway.\nThe Canal Street subway station was closed, but we walked further north until we found an open station. MTA was not even collecting fares \ufffd The subways were running for free, to allow people to get where they needed. The N and R trains were not running, since they run right through Cortland Street and the WTC site, but we managed to find a Q train back to Brooklyn.\nI said goodbye to everyone, as we all split up, and finally found my way back to Bay Ridge, where I picked up my cell phone and called a few friends to tell them I was still alive and well. Most of my friends weren\ufffdt home, but I left messages telling them, \ufffdYou\ufffdre not going to believe the day I had today.\ufffd\nRobert\t| 31 | New York\nI was in my office on 5th avenue when a co-worker, who was running late, called us to say that a 747 had hit the World Trade Center. At first, we thought she must have been mistaken. It was probably a small commuter plane that hit, and as all information goes from one person to another, a bit of distortion and exaggeration finds its way into the actual account. It wasn\ufffdt until ten minutes later that I decided to check the CNN website for news and information. I guess the ten-minute delay is something built into the emotional system that all New Yorker\ufffds have when something happens. I couldn\ufffdt believe the image on my screen. Although not as disturbing as the live footage on TV, the websites only carried the image of the gaping hole the first plane left in the tower hit. My God, I thought, those poor people on the floors of impact! The websites must have been jammed with users because that image was the only image available for a considerable amount of time. I thought to myself, that building is amazing. It is still standing even after the plane hit. I thought the worst was over.\nThereafter, our only source of news was the radio. We did not have a TV in our office so the entire ordeal played out over radio waves. I could not believe my ears. When I heard that the towers had collapsed I was dumbfounded. A deep pit formed in my stomach as I held down the urge to be sick. It was something that all of us, as Americans, have finally come to realize that we are not immune to the horror that occurs on a daily basis in the Middle East. We had, once again, been drawn into war.\nIt was amazingly calm outside of our building as New Yorkers were finding a way out of the city. New York City was being shut down. What, New York was being shut down? My wife was about to give birth to our now 8 month-old daughter and was horribly worried that I would not be home for her when she went into labor. She went into labor on the 15th, and on the 16th I had a beautiful baby girl. The entire time I was in the hospital, I was haunted by the reality of the world in which I was bringing a child into. I spent some time home after my daughter was born, but I had been terrified to go back to NYC. I wanted to be with my new family. My family became the world to me, and each day I had to think that I was risking my life for something unnecessary. There was never anything unnecessary about rebuilding my courage. I think all New Yorkers went through something that showed the world that we have the will and desire to overcome and survive as an entire city.\nRichard\t| 31 | New York\n#1313 | Friday, May 24th 2002\nI had just worked a ten hour shift and had gotten off work at 7:00am. I had just gotten back from the store, and was watching tv, before I went to bed. I just happened to see a building burning, and thought to myself, \"Is that happening now\". So I stayed on the channel. The news anchors were telling us that a plane had hit one of the WTC towers, and it was not confirmed if the plane was off course, or what had happened, about then a plane hit the second tower, the news anchors were all silent, and then one of them said, \"was that footage of the plane hitting the first tower\". They were so confused, and all I could think was \"oh my god, this is being done deliberately\". The news anchors were all just silent and shocked, just like me. I called my mom, and told her, and a couple of friends. Then when the first tower collapsed, I just sit on my couch and cried. I will never forget that day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!\nGina\t| 31 | United States\n#1253 | Sunday, May 5th 2002\nOn the morning of sept.11th myself and my best friend were boarding a flight to Orlando Florida at 7:40 a.m. from New Yorks JFK. At about 9:10 a.m. our captian announced that we were to make an emergency landing in Atlanta. People on the plane began using there cellphones, reporting to other passengers about terrorist activties and a plane hitting one of the twin towers. I told my friend not to worry, it was probally a small plane. As we landed and entered the airport, there was an unnerving quiet, no one but the passengers from my plane was in the airport. Most of us headed toward a bar within the airport that was still open, there we began to see the pictures, the attack on our home city, and many of our friends, on the television. I just sat there in disbelief, as many around us began to cry. The worst part was not being able to contact any of my friends or family via telephone, to let them know its ok, we're alright it wasn't our plane.\nJohn\t| 31 | New York\nI live in California, so by the time I got up in the morning, it was all over. I woke around 8:30am, but lay in bed lazily, looking outside at the beautiful day. I had been working on a massive project the day before at work and I happily announced to my boyfriend when he picked me up from work that I should complete the task by tomorrow. I got out of bed first and went into the shower.\nI was in the middle of the shower when something strange happened. It sounded like the faucet and pipes in the bathroom were talking to me! They were humming loudly and I turned off the water to figure out what was happening. That is when I heard the TV in the living room, turned on as loud as I've ever heard it, so loud that it was vibrating off the faucet and pipes in the bathroom. I heard bits and pieces through the bathroom door....United flight blah blah blah this, United flight blah blah blah that.\nI wiped myself, walked out of the bathroom to find my boyfriend watching CNN. I saw my first images of the towers on fire and collapsing. It was all a blur as I tried to make sense of it. I was shocked when I realized that the towers were no longer standing. My boyfriend turned to me and said, \"You know this means war.\"\nI didn't to watch TV all day, as I knew that's all I'd ever do if I stayed home, so I got ready for work. My boyfriend drove me to the shuttle stop, angry as hell and saying we should bomb whoever did it into the stone age -- using nukes if possible. I didn't feel angry, I was shocked and stunned, not even sad yet -- as it had yet to settle in my mind.\nMy shuttle bus had not arrived yet and I walked down the street thinking about what had just happened. I saw people walking on the lonely street, did they know what had just happened? I looked at the brand-new newspapers in the vending machines -- they seemed so behind-the-times and old news. I thought about the times I had been to New York and seen the WTC. I thought about the movie Meteor from 1981 which showed the Twin Towers exploding. I thought my own thoughts when I was there in person, wondering how the Towers could ever be safely demolished and imploded. I could not imagine how they could be brought down safely without damaging the surrounding buildings because they were so *freakingly* tall. And what I tried to visualize in my mind I saw with my eyes on CNN, and it was horrible.\nI got on the shuttle to work. It was a short trip to the university. I thought about a predication I made idly in a chatroom a week before predicting a massive terrorist attack on the U.S. that would far eclipse Oklahoma City. I thought something that was gonna happen in the next 10 years, I didn't imagine it was right behind the corner. I worried about the FBI using Carnivore and reading my comments and thinking I somehow had advance knowledge.\nWhen the shuttle got near my work, it was clear that something was wrong. There were police everywhere, a newsvan, and police tape everywhere. That summer I was working at Hoover Tower, a conservative institution and where many terrorism experts have studied. Apparently someone had phoned in a bomb threat to the Tower and the building was being evacuated. So it looked like there was no work today afterall. I found one of my co-workers standing nearby and he told me what had happened.\nSo I decided to go to my other office nearby and work on the project I had planned to work on today. I went into my office, closed the door, and logged onto CNN.com. And that is how I spent my day, updating every few minutes. It turned out to be no different than if I had stayed home and watched CNN on TV.\nAnd that project? I haven't worked on it since.\nSarah\t| 31 | California",

        "raw_content": "Team Twiizers is our resident \"1337 h4x0r\" group. They are essentially responsible for the past and present formation of the Wii Homebrew scene. They are also responsible for the majority of work involving brick recovery. They should not be confused with the similarly named Team Twizzlers.\n2.1 BootMii\nTeam Twiizers is named for the infamous tweezer attack in which a pair of tweezers was used to obtain the Wii's private encryption keys. Once the Wii's private keys were obtained, exploration of the system could truly get into full swing.\nVideo Source: crediar's clip of bushing from the 24c3 conference (Jan 2008).\nAt the annual 24c3 hacker conference, bushing demonstrated an altered version of Lego Star Wars which was used to load some basic code displaying Wii Remote data in real time.\nVideo Source: bushing\nAn exploit found in the save system of The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess (Wii version) led to the next step: the release of the Twilight Hack, which could load executables containing custom code compiled against libogc. The Twilight Princess exploit worked by using a modified save file containing a name for Link's horse which was long enough to cause a buffer overflow pointing to a memory address which contained the loader code.\nThen followed the collaborative creation and eventual release of the Homebrew Channel, which was installable via the Twilight Hack or by using a special ISO for Wii consoles with modded disc drives.\nThe Homebrew Channel was and is one of the only homebrew applications to feature an automatic update capability.\nTeam Twiizers have collaborated on a wide variety of projects, including a study of Wii bricks and custom booting to allow independence from Nintendo updates that may be otherwise necessary in the future for newer games.\nBootMii is the \"next step\", so to speak. It is a patch applied to boot2 that will check for homebrew and launch it instead of loading the system menu (if nothing is present then it will proceed to boot normally into the wii system menu). It can be used to load the homebrew channel, for example, bypassing the need to ever install it on your wii. It can also be used to load Linux, or perhaps even a completely different menu interface which is fully capable of launching channels and games. However, it is mainly used for brick recovery, due to its NAND backup and restoration capabilities.\nTwiizers has always gone out of its way to make clear the point that they do not support nor want anything to do with piracy or pirates. They are simply a group of hacking enthusiasts who share their work with the community that they played a major part in founding, and have made every effort to ensure that their work is not associated with bootlegging.\nThe following people are either current members or have been publicly known members of Team Twiizers in the past. Some may be inactive from time to time. Since much of the work is collaborative, at certain times there may be others working with the team or there may be publicly unknown members of the team working behind the scenes.\ntmbinc\ndhewg\nDue to Twiizer's stance on piracy and their efforts to keep Nintendo from making things more difficult for homebrewers, the team has had to keep several details about certain exploits and pieces of code under wraps. These measures have caused some concern within the community of end-users, many of whom feel that all of the code and the details of exploits should be made publicly available to everyone, not simply a portion of it. Still others are upset over rumors and misinformation surrounding the issue, and yet more are simply spurned by the deliberate attempt to exclude software pirates. A few simple facts should be noted:\nHomebrew is not illegal, nor is any of the reverse engineering that was done in order to enable it. However, software piracy is illegal. This is not to say that laws do not vary from country to country, but as a general rule, it holds.\nTwiizers has never used any copyrighted/stolen code in their projects.

        "title": "Woman Knows: 16 Steps To Catching The Man Of Your Dreams",
        "raw_content": "You are here > Homepage> Relationships> Dating> Dating Advice> 16 Steps To Catching The Man Of Your Dreams\nIt seems like other women get the \u2018right\u2019 men before you even notice them \u2013 just like things on sale. But you want to have only the highest quality! Do you often ask yourself what you should be doing to get that ideal man? The changes begin with you!\nFor three years I had been in a rather stable relationship with a nice guy. He was kind, easy-going and caring, but from the very beginning I knew that he was not \u2018The One\u2019. We didn\u2019t have much in common. I didn\u2019t get why his eyes got dim and dreamy when he talked about Schumacher, and why he didn\u2019t find anything exciting in camping, tents or boats. When I thought that we might live together \u201c\u2019till the very end\u201d, I wanted to cry.\nAnd then I went to the mountains to ski. There, sipping my drink at the bar, surrounded by tanned, muscular men, I realized that I couldn\u2019t put up with somebody \u2018quite average\u2019 anymore. I decided that it\u2019s better to be alone than to waste time on a man who\u2019s not my \u201cMister Right\u201d. I promised to myself to have fun and enjoy life until I meet Him. That\u2019s what I told my \u2018quite average\u2019 boyfriend when I came back. Naturally, we broke up.\nOnce, lying on the sofa, I wrote down the list of qualities the Man of My Dreams should possess: sociable, faithful, loving, with a good sense of humor and a broad outlook, intelligent, leading a healthy life-style, well-read, generous\u2026 Plus 10 more qualities that I considered quite important. I finished the list, put it in the drawer and went to a club.\nAbout a month later, partying with a friend of mine, I realized that I was sharing a table with Him. In my astonishment I was barely able to put myself together enough to open my mouth and give him my phone number. Thank Lord I did that!\nIt\u2019s unbelievable how easy it was. Looking back, I see that the whole thing was just a lucky concourse of circumstances. Emotionally I was in great shape \u2013 for the first time in my life I knew exactly what I wanted from a man. I grew up and realized that I needed somebody more than a handsome Ken doll to boast of with my girlfriends. I needed something more serious. Also, I wasn\u2019t trying to find somebody that very minute \u2013 I just wanted to live happily, with or without men. Essentially, I was happy. One thing did seem distressing: had I met him a couple months before, I would have never found him suitable \u2013 too dreamy, too eccentric\u2026 I could have lost the Man of My Dreams.\nIt\u2019s rather hard to see the man you need. There are dozens of fake \u2018ideal\u2019 men, and may not always be ready to meet Him. So, to be on the safe side, you must work hard. Work on yourself.\nBe sincere with yourself.\nSo, you want to meet a nice guy? Admit it to yourself. Looking for Love is hard at first, but it\u2019s worth trying. If you can openly say to yourself that you want to find happiness, it doesn\u2019t mean that you are a failure. It means only that you\u2019re a mature and experienced person.\nBe sincere with the others.\nWhen talking to other people, do not show off your independence and self-sufficiency. Do not pretend that you do not need anyone or anything. Tell your friends about your wish to find the right man. Ask them to look among their acquaintances; maybe, there\u2019s the right person somewhere near. Let them arrange a blind date for you.\nClean the mess in your life.\nUnless you find out what kind of person you are and what kind of man you are looking for, it\u2019s no use to starting the process. Try this: take a piece of paper, draw a circle and divide it into parts. One will be for your career, one for your man, one for your interests, and some more for hobbies, friends, etc. Size them according to what is most important to you. This simple diagram will help you to look at the situation as a whole and help you revise your priorities.\nMake it clear to yourself what kind of man you need.\nThink about the qualities that are the most important to you in your partner: something you will admire, something you will never accept, something you will be ready to discuss. If it\u2019s difficult, make a table with three columns reflecting these categories. Take every quality you can think of and place it in the appropriate column. Take this mental \u2018personality chart\u2019 with you wherever you go. But try to be flexible and make some changes if you feel like it.\nPut the stereotypes aside.\nSome day you\u2019ll realize that \u2018handsome and rich\u2019 doesn\u2019t necessarily mean \u2018kind, loving and reliable\u2019. Most likely,",

As a young woman from Port Royal, Tennessee, she first took her UT-Knoxville B.S. degree in home economics into Tipton, White and Hardin public schools as a teacher. Eventually she signed on with the Agricultural Extension Service and came to Shelby County as an extension home economist.\nThat easily was one of Shelby County\u2019s luckiest days.\nFrom teaching young people how to grow their own food in the Youth Service Garden Project to protecting consumers through her work for the Better Business Bureau, sewing clothes for needy children and sharing her expertise with the Mid-South Fair, 4-H and MIFA \u2014 Alberta Gaines has been a one-woman resource center for numerous organizations.\nFor 37 years she has worked through programs at Emmanuel Episcopal Church and other community groups to improve the lives of children and poor people. She has served on the Youth Service in Memphis board of directors since January 1967 and was voted a life member several years ago to ensure she could not rotate off! She also has been treasurer of St. Augustine\u2019s Guild, an auxiliary group to Youth Service. Alberta has been active in Church Women United, American Red Cross, Northside Christian Center, Memphis Day Shelter and the Better Business Bureau\u2019s fabric panel and general board.\nAlberta retired in 1983 after 29 years with the Extension Service \u2014 but \u201cretired\u201d to Alberta means she has more time for community projects. She soon followed her curiosity to Habitat for Humanity. When she found the project had no paid staff, she kept the books, took in monthly payments, answered telephones and presented slide-show lectures about Habitat\u2019s program of building homes through donations for low-income families. She became active on Habitat\u2019s national board while also heading the local screening committee interviewing many of the hundreds of applicant families each year.\nShe is truly steadfast in her commitment to making her corner of the world a better place to live.

The northern beaches of Zanzibar are particularly celebrated for their beauty, and excursions to Pemba Island and Mafia Island are a treat for beachgoers. Other tourist favourites include Kendwa Beach and Nungwi Beach, close together on the northwestern tip of the island, with good resort facilities; Uroa Bay, in the middle of the east coast, which still retains a pleasant local flavour; Paje Beach, on the east coast, said to be the best spot on Zanzibar for some kite surfing; Nakupenda Beach, accessible by a short boat trip from Stone Town, which is pristine and usually deserted, a true paradise beach; and the beaches of Changuu Island (Prison Island) where beach lounging can be combined with a visit to the old quarantine centre and the resident giant tortoises. It is possible to arrange many different water sports and boat trips, and the scuba diving and snorkelling is world-class.\nZanzibar is more than just picturesque beaches, however, with the Islamic heritage infusing the island with an exotic, ancient atmosphere, and the legacy of the slave trade ensuring some historical interest. The dilapidated beauty of Stone Town is a big draw card for travellers wanting a taste of culture. For those wanting to explore into the interior of Zanzibar, 4x4 excursions are popular, and the Jozani Chwaka Bay Conservation Area is the best place to experience the surviving mangrove forests.\nAnglican Cathedral and Slave Market\nThe colossal Anglican Cathedral in Stone Town is located on the grounds of the island's largest former slave market.\u2026\nA vibrant array of colours and spicy scents lures visitors to the vibrant Central Market in Stone Town.

        "raw_content": "\"Dawn of the Great War,\" Now Open\nThe Museum of World Treasures is proud to announce the opening of Dawn of the Great War: A World War I Centennial Commemoration. The exclusive exhibit opening for Dawn of the Great War was held on Thursday, February 27. All Museum members are invited to these special exhibit opening parties. The opening included a short speech from WSU student curator Clayton Suter and a ribbon-cutting ceremony. The event included a variety of delicious food provided by local businesses, including Candle Club, Dillons, and Cocoa Dolce.\nThe new exhibit commemorates the centennial of World War I, which began on July 28, 1914, with the Austro-Hungarian Empire\u2019s declaration of war on Serbia. Dawn of the Great War examines the earliest years of World War I, focusing on its causes and earlier battles as well as the new technology developed for the war. It exhibits a wide variety of unique weapons, tools, and other artifacts from the major combatant countries as well as documents signed by some key players.\nDuring the event, Education Director Jillian Overstake-Forsberg oversaw an artifact station that allowed visitors to handle real artifacts with gloves. The event also included a wheat-less bread demonstration to display the rationing of wheat that took place during World War I.\nVolunteer Jim Finneran provided a historical war game table for guests. Jim created a this display for the opening that demonstrates trench warfare conditions and tactics. He also provided an aviation themed board, as WWI Ace's were famous to the general public.\nDawn of the Great War is a one-year temporary exhibit in the Museum\u2019s Rotating Gallery. The Museum\u2019s Rotating Gallery provides a unique opportunity to area students as it is researched, designed, and completed by a student chosen from a local university. Under the direction of Curator of Exhibits and Research, Tim Howard, Dawn of the Great War is curated by Clayton Suter, who \u201cchose World War I as the theme due to 2014 marking the War\u2019s centennial, and because World War I\u2019s impact continues to affect the world today, even though it ended nearly 100 years ago.\u201d Suter is a history graduate student at Wichita State University.\nThe private unveiling was open to Museum members and special guests. Are you interested in becoming a member of the Museum and receiving access to private unveilings for future exhibits?

        "title": "National Seminar on the Strategy Formulation of Reducing Maternal Mortality Rate in Achieving 2015 MDGs - Women Research Institute",
        "raw_content": "National Seminar on the Strategy Formulation of Reducing Maternal Mortality Rate in Achieving 2015 MDGs\nOne Village, One Birthing Clinic, One Midwife\nIn 2010, the Human Development Index (HDI) for Indonesia, as published by the United Nations Development Program (UNDP), increased from 107 to 111. Several main HDI indicators are closely related to health, including Life Expectancy, Infant Mortality Rate and Maternal Mortality Rate (MMR). The high maternal mortality rate in Indonesia in 2009 resulted in the decrease of Indonesia\u2019s position in the Human Development Index.\nThe high maternal mortality rate reflects the inadequate reproductive health services for poor pregnant women and the difficulties faced by poor women to access reproductive health services. What actions should be taken if the Regional General Hospital (RSUD) in cities, Puskesmas (Community Health Clinics) in sub-districts, and midwives living in villages are considered too expensive and too far for poor women who live in remote areas? Strategies that should be implemented are bringing reproductive health facilities closer to the community\u2019s houses, urging the government to issue the \u201cOne Village, One Birthing Clinic, One Midwife\u201d policy and allocating adequate funds to implement it, in order to overcome the lack of reproductive health services for poor, pregnant women.\nThe policy should oblige the government to provide a place to build a Village Birthing Clinic (Polindes), which should preferably be located in the center of the village. Since currently it is still the community who must provide the place for Polindes, they merely allocated a space in an isolated area which is inadequate for living purposes. This policy should also regulate that government should allocate sufficient funds to equip Polindes with electricity, clean water, sanitation, and adequate equipments for assisting births.\nThis policy should also regulate midwives to stay in Polindes, at least on midwife in each Polindes, to enable expecting mothers 24 hour access to a midwife. In order to become an effective pioneer in putting an end to the high maternal mortality rate in Indonesia, the \u201cOne Village, One Birthing Clinic, and One Midwife\u201d policy must be supported with a general health insurance to provide protection for people living in remote areas. However, the general health insurance itself should not be treated as a spearhead in reducing maternal mortality rate.\nThe findings of Women Research Institute\u2019s (WRI) research on Access and Utilization of Reproductive Health Service Facilities for Poor Women in Seven Districts/Cities in Indonesia (North Lampung, Lebak, Indramayu, Jembrana, North Lombok, West Sumbawa, and Surakarta) in 2007-2008 revealed that although the majority of the population is protected by health insurance provided by the government, such as Askeskin or Jamkesmas (Public Health Insurance, a state health insurance for the poor), and the Statement of Poverty Letter (SKTM), they still experience difficulties in accessing health services due to the considerable distance to the health facility. The topography which consists of hills, mountains, and poor roads, as well as the lack of public transportation, are causes for their obstacles. These health facilities cannot be accessed by poor women because they would have to pay relatively expensive transportation fees, as these fees are not covered by the health insurance. Ideally, all poor women should be covered by the insurance and could easily visit the Village Birthing Clinic in their respective villages to access free labor and delivery services.\nJamkesmas itself needs to improved to be an effective support facility for the \u201cOne Village, One Birthing Clinic, and One Midwife\u201d policy. In the past, the dissemination of information on Askeskin was far from effective. WRI found that many poor people did not have any information about Askeskin or how to get access to it. The reasons for the high number of unregistered poor families in the insurance system are: 1) Poor people have no access to gain information about Askeskin, and 2) Poor people experience many difficulties in getting identity cards, due to the lack of information, lack of economic resources, or their status of newcomers in that area.\nPoor people have a low bargaining position compared to those who could use their authority or family\u2019s connection to force the officers in charge to register them under Askeskin. A Posyandu (Integrated Health Post) officer in Sangkrah admitted that the selection of Askeskin participants in subdistrict offices did not adhere to the criteria of poor people as determined by Statistics Indonesia (BPS). Instead, family connections and private or social reasons became the criteria, and as a result, even privileged people could get Askseskin cards.\nThe reimburse system of Askeskin/Jamkesmas claims should also be improved. The current time-consuming process for labor or delivery claims made midwives reluctant to provide free services for Askeskin patients. According to the regulations, claim process should be completed in two or three weeks, yet in practice, it requires a much longer time \u2013 sometimes even six months. This arduous and lengthy claim process problemitized Puskesmas\u2019 financial condition.\nThe issue is how to boost the \u201cOne Village, One Birthing Clinic, and One Midwife\u201d policy in order for it to run effectively with adequate support from the budget allocation. According to Prof. Mahmoud Fathalla, the main obstacle in making policies and allocating budget is that the policy-makers, a majority of them men, do not view poor women\u2019s lives as worthy enough to be saved. The reality of gender inequality, causing difficulties in promoting gender-based policies and budget allocation, is one of the most difficult obstacles in reducing maternal mortality rate in Indonesia. The \u201cOne Village, One Birthing Clinic, and One Midwife\u201d policy will only succeed as a pioneer in drastically reducing maternal mortality rate if followed with gender equality and equity education for policy-makers, in order for them to understand that women\u2019s lives are as worthy as men\u2019s.\nThe success in influencing policymakers to issue and allocate the funds for the \u201cOne Village, One Birthing Clinic, and One Midwife\u201d policy must however be accompanied by public education about gender equality and equity. WRI\u2019s research findings documented the large number of cases where poor women have no authority over their own bodies and the life-and-death decisions during her labor are in the hands of their husband and family. The status quo of gender inequality within the community, which places men in a higher position than women, will reduce the effectivity of the \u201cOne Village, One Birthing Clinic, and One Midwife\u201d policy in reaching poor women in isolated areas. Taking a pregnant woman, upon experiencing bleeding and complications, to the Polindes in another part of the village is considered as no use by the husband and family because they deem her life unimportant enough to be saved.\nThe transformation of Jamkesmas to Jamkesnas (National Health Insurance) will support the effectiveness of the implementation of the \u201cOne Village, One Birthing Clinic, and One Midwife\u201d policy. The implementation of Jamkesnas is to fulfill the mandate of Article 5 Paragraph 1 Law No.36/2009 on Health that states, \u201cEvery person has equal rights for an access to resources in health.\u201d Article 5 Paragraph 2 Law No. 36/2009 on Health states, \u201cEvery person has the right to receive safe, quality, and affordable health services.\u201d This means that the Government of Indonesia views healthcare as every citizen\u2019s right. Everyone, both men and women, either financially stable or categorized as the poor, have the right to healthcare. To strengthen the commitment for this health right, Indonesia ratified the Convention of Economic, Social, and Cultural Rights in 2006. One of the consequences is that the state must guarantee the fulfillment of health rights, including affordable health facilities and the mechanism of legal settlement for entities who violate the health right. The government\u2019s responsibility to guarantee the public\u2019s health is strengthened with Article 20 Law No. 36/2009 on Health which states, \u201cThe government is responsible to guarantee the public\u2019s health through a national social insurance system aimed at individual health.\u201d This regulation indicates that the government must cover health insurance for its citizens by implementing a Comprehensive Health Insurance program.\nIn response to the number of suggestions to evaluate Jamkesmas, the Minister of Health Endang Rahayu Sedyaningsih expressed her concern on the previous health insurance reimburse system, such as the claim reimburse process. To ensure that the process went smoothly, the Minister studied various existing regulations related to health insurance. Furthermore, the Minister also explained that the Jamkesmas system is indeed contradictive with the Law of National Social Security System. The Minister is currently drafting a map of the national health program. Jamkesmas is gradually being changed into a national insurance. In 2014, the national health system is expected to cover every single member of the population. \u201cThe fees of the poor will be paid by the government, while civil servants will be paid by employers and employees,\u201d the Minister of Health stated.\nJamkesnas will be a complementary element in assisting the execution of the \u201cOne Village, One Birthing Clinic, and One Midwife\u201d to run effectively. The case of Jembrana shows that there are beneficial impacts from the fulfillment of women\u2019s reproductive health if the government has a political will to introduce a health insurance that protects everyone. Another point that makes the Jembrana case even more interesting is because Jembrana is categorized as a poor district in the Poverty Index published by SMERU Research Institute. The limited resources did not discourage the Local Government of Jembrana to implement an insurance policy at the district level, which provides free healthcare for its community, including poor women. The allocation of health budget in Jembrana in 2007 was very high, at Rp. 151,043 per person \u2013 much higher than Surakarta, which is financially superior yet only allocates Rp. 65,934 per individual. It is thus unsurprising that the maternal mortality rate in Jembrana is very low \u2013 55/100,000 live births, much lower than the national average \u2013 surpassing the 2015 target of MDGs at 102/100,000 live births.***",

        "raw_content": "Afternoon Delight with James Taylor\nHello, I\u2019m James Taylor, and welcome to Afternoon Delight\u2014the show that\u2019s all about you and your sex-fetish inquiries. As you know, each week I\u2019m joined by a guest host, selected from an endless pool of talented 1970s singer songwriters, and together we do our best to address your fetishistic concerns. Whether your gag ball got stuck somewhere it didn\u2019t belong or you\u2019re just looking for an inside line on a pair of assless chaps, we can help.\nMy co-host will join us in a minute, but first let\u2019s take a caller:\nCaller: Hi, James. Big fan. It\u2019s an honor. O.K. Here\u2019s my question: My wife and I have been married for 25 years and enjoy a good amount of role play. But last week, during a hot wax nipple session, she distinctly ignored my safe word. Since then, I just haven\u2019t felt safe being submissive. Am I wrong? And, Oh! My safe word is \u201cSweet Baby James.\u201d You rule!\nWell, thank you, caller. I always love to hear when my music has found a place into the hearts of lovers and their dirty sex play. Let me say that ignoring a submissive\u2019s safe word is never cool. I remember once in \u201977, I was backstage at a Cat Stevens concert with a groupie and my favorite vaginal speculum. I was just about to increase the dilation a click, when she cried out, \u201cBanapple Gas!\u201d But I didn\u2019t stop. I thought she was shouting out a song request for Cat. You see, by a horrible coincidence \u201cBanapple Gas\u201d was also her safe word, and I\u2019d forgotten. Which is understandable because I was mainlining heroin at the time. Anyway, not long after, Cat rode the \u201cPeace Train\u201d out for an encore, and all was forgiven. But that doesn\u2019t change what I did. Safe words are sacred, man. You keep your nipples to yourself until you get that straight with your lady.\nO.K., let\u2019s take another call:\nCaller: Hi, James. I\u2019m 42 years old, and throughout my life only two things have gotten me off: the smooth and insightful music of singer-songwriters from the 70s and infantilism. I found a lady who loves me and who has no problem changing my diaper, but she can\u2019t stand my music collection. Godley & Creme, Seals & Crofts, Loggins & Messina. She hates it all, and, somehow, sitting in my own diapered filth just isn\u2019t satisfying unless I can listen to Leo Sayer\u2019s \u201cWhen I Need Love\u201d at the same time. You know what I mean? Any ideas?\nO.K. Tough question. I think this might be a good time to bring out this week\u2019s co-host. You might know him best for penning the theme song to The Golden Girls, but before that, he had a massive hit in 1976 with \u201cLonely Boy.\u201d Please welcome talented singer-songwriter and deviant sex enthusiast, Andrew Gold. Andrew, think you can help our caller?\nThanks, James. I think I can. Y\u2019know back in the early 70s, I was quite the infantilism fan. Diaper changes, spankings, nursing, the whole nine yards. But I simply couldn\u2019t afford my fetish. Despondent and alone, I wrote \u201cLonely Boy.\u201d Suddenly, I was a success and I had the cash to feed my habit. I spent most of \u201977 soiled and erect. But y\u2019know what, man? That\u2019s not where it\u2019s at. I needed a partner. Someone who would grow with me as a person and as a pervert. I was very lucky to find that someone in \u201978 and she stayed with me through the infantilism, into my C.B.T. period, and she\u2019s still with me now as we explore mummification. I wrote \u201cThank You for Being a Friend\u201d for this special lady, and I can tell you there\u2019s nothing more important in this crazy world than finding a spiritual partner who can share your love and occasionally sodomize you.\nBut no 1970s tunes? That\u2019s a dealbreaker, man. I don\u2019t even want to think about trying to achieve orgasm without \u201cSummer Breeze\u201d playing in the background. Stay strong, man. You\u2019ll find the lady that\u2019s right for you.\nAll right. Good advice. I think we have time for one more call here at Afternoon Delight. Caller, are you there?\nCaller: Hey there, J.T. Longtime fan. First-time caller.\nFirst-time caller my ass! I\u2019d recognize that rugged yet sensitive voice anywhere! Ladies and Gentleman, on the phone I believe we have consummate singer-songwriter and last week\u2019s co-host, Jackson Browne. Jackson, is that you?\nYa got me, James! It\u2019s me, but I do have a question. Remember back in \u201979 after the No Nukes show? We went down to a place in the Village, and I found that domina who actually agreed to do that thing with that thing? \u2014You and Carly were doing your \u201cmonogamy experiment\u201d at the time so you didn\u2019t watch, but my question is, do you still have that domina\u2019s number?\nRemember? Of course, I do. We played our blend of introspective acoustic emotion in the aftermath of Three Mile Island, and helped stop the proliferation of nuclear power, man. And then you got violated in ways that I still can\u2019t fully comprehend. That was a special time. But no luck, Jackson. Carly picked up a diamond-encrusted designer paddle in SoHo that night so details are still kind of a blur. I don\u2019t have the number.\nI have it, Jackson. I\u2019ll hook you up offline.\nCoolness. Thanks, Andy.\nGreat. Another happy customer. Well, that about rounds out our show. I want to thank my callers and my co-host, and I hope to see you next week. And remember, when it comes to finding someone to give the best advice and information on the dark and deviant, you\u2019ve got a friend here at Afternoon Delight.\nA Public Message from the North American Soccer League\nIs Major League Baseball a harmless athletic competition--or a front, a hideous ruse designed to lure healthy young men into the sordid world of male prostitution?",

        "raw_content": "Tenants & Flatmates What\u2019s the difference between a tenant and a flatmate? When does the tenancy law not apply to me? How can flatmates and tenants protect themselves more? What should a written flatting contract include? What\u2019s the point of having a flatmate agreement?\nOne of the first things you need to know when you\u2019re renting is whether you\u2019re a tenant or a flatmate. The law and your rights are very different depending on whether you\u2019re a tenant or a flatmate.\nThis section gives you some information about tenants and flatmates.\nWhat\u2019s the difference between a tenant and a flatmate?\nA tenant is someone who rents a property directly from a landlord and should have a written tenancy agreement where their name appears on the tenancy agreement as the \u201ctenant\u201d.\nA flatmate is someone who lives with a tenant or the landlord of the property, but their name does not appear on the lease with the landlord. They have a flatmate contract with the head tenant or landlord.\nIn different properties, there might be combinations of both tenants and flatmates. Flatmates commonly pay rent to the tenants, although they may sometimes pay the landlord directly. The important aspect is that flatmates often have no legal tenancy relationship with the landlord.\nWhen does the tenancy law not apply to me?\nThe law (Residential Tenancies Act) on renting property only protects tenants. This is a problem for flatmates because a landlord, or even a tenant, could evict a flatmate without much notice, and there are no set legal processes as to what should happen if things go wrong. All the legal protections and information in the flatting section applies only to tenants.\nIn addition, some \u2018tenants\u2019 are not counted as \u2018tenants\u2019 by the law \u2013 there\u2019s over 20 exceptions in the Residential Tenancies Act where you think you may be a tenant, but under the law you\u2019re not. E.g. If you live with your landlord or any member of your landlord\u2019s family, you\u2019re not covered by the Residential Tenancies Act.\nTenants/Flatmates in this situation should consider signing separate agreements with their landlord to better protect themselves.\nHow can flatmates and tenants protect themselves more?\nIf you\u2019re a tenant and your flatmate does a runner, you could be liable for the rent. If you\u2019re a flatmate, a tenant could kick you out with very little notice. Flatmates and tenants can give themselves some extra security by having a flatting contract signed by all flatmates and tenants.\nIt\u2019s important to note that verbal agreements are valid too, but they can be very hard to enforce if a problem comes up, so it\u2019s important to have something in writing. It may seem a little formal, but problems can get out of hand very quickly and can cost a lot of money and stress. Better safe than sorry!\nWhat should a written flatting contract include?\nA flatting agreement should include:\nHow much bond is required, who this is paid to, and the procedure for getting this back at the end of the contract;\nWhat rent is paid to whom and how often it must be paid;\nHow much notice you must give if you want to move out;\nHow much notice others can give you if they want you to move out, and who can give you this notice;\nWho has responsibility for any maintenance work;\nHow expenses are split;\nConfirmation that the landlord allows the tenants to have flatmates.\nThere is a template you can use on the Tenancy website. Make sure you agree with everything in the agreement before you sign it.\nWhat\u2019s the point of having a flatmate agreement?\nIf a flatmate breaks the contract, there will be a clear guidelines as to how it should be resolved, and if the other person doesn\u2019t follow the contract, you may be able to make a claim against them at the Disputes Tribunal.\nEither tenants or flatmates can draw one up a flatting contract at any time, even if you\u2019re already living at the flat. If you don\u2019t have a written flatting contract it could be very difficult to enforce any agreement between tenants and flatmates, and it will be even harder for the judge if you have to take it through legal routes later.",

Anderson Collection, Senate House Library, University of London, with permission.\nContributed by: Karen Attar\nJohn Hampdon\u2019s History of the Northern War covers the period from 1812 until the Vienna Congress of 1815. The book is obscure and scarce, printed and published provincially, in Newcastle upon Tyne), by an otherwise unknown writer. It was originally intended for publication in 1814, a chronology of the principal events in Napoleon\u2019s life (p. 594) ending with his arrival at Elba on 8 May 1814. But the final chapter, \u201cCongress at Vienna\u201d, notes a delay in publication occasioned by the desire to print notification of the termination of the congress.\nSuch a delay, of course, was extended further by Napoleon\u2019s escape from Elba in February 1815, which disrupted any attempt to give a neat conclusion to the account. This uncertainty over Europe\u2019s trajectory is clear in a speech paraphrased by Hampdon at the end of the book, and given in the House of Commons on 20 March 1815 by Lord Castlereagh (until February 1815 Britain\u2019s representative at the Congress).: \u201cIf Bonaparte succeeded in re-establishing his authority in France, peace must be despaired of \u2026 The question now was, whether \u2026 Europe was again to become a series of armed nations, and whether Great Britain among them was \u2026 again to struggle for the independence of the world?

The couple must therefore be committed to understand each other and keep their responsibilities as priorities so that their relationships can prosper. This is the reason why there are the family and relationships counselors who are in a position to help the disputing partner's het along well with each other. They offer their services in their offices that mostly bear their names. When the couple is experiencing a situation that calls for a mediator to settle, we need the access to the nearest relationship counsellor in order to help rescue the situation. All the relationships problems can be forwarded to the John Toussaint relationship counselorsand they will be able to get a way out of the situation.\nSince many people are busy reading and pursuing their academics, they barely have a social love life and this makes the situation for their marriages full of inconveniences. They even have poor problem solving skills that may make their disputes even worse with their partners when they cannot agree on anything. This is the information proven by Dr John Toussaint counselling program whereby people need to be interacted on how well they are supposed to conduct themselves in the relationships in order to make them last longer.\nOne of the things that make the people who get into relationships while young to get into relationships troubles is because they have many expectations from their partners. In the entire period when you will be under the eye of the marriage counselor, you will learn how well to understand your partners and lower your expectations. The best reference point of a couple to the relationships counsellors is normally when they have disagreed so much such that they cannot sit and agree on matters that relate to them. This means that a break up cannot solve anything that has been disputed upon.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Counseling_psychology\nWe can be in a position to look out for the marriage and relationship assistance skills from the Dr John Toussaint relationship coaches. This will be very easy for them because there are professional marriage counselors who have been able to settle down many boiling relationships. Other marriage related issues that normally push the couple towards the need to seek help from the marriage counselors is about the family planning matters and how to raise a family with great care and love.",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Blogs \u00bb Charles Gaba's blog \u00bb The Mystery of RAND's odd numbers (Guest Post)\nThe Mystery of RAND's odd numbers (Guest Post)\nThis is a guest post by Paul Mullen, Consultant Economist, Austin, TX; former Economic Advisor to the UK Minister for Local Government, Minister for Housing & Secretary for the Environment:\nI would love to believe RAND's estimated 8.2 million increase in ESI between September and March but my experience in commissioning similar polls suggests to me that it is not real but due to an unanticipated side effect of the poll methodology.\nWe know that there is a pretty large \"churn\" in insurance status. Some people will gain jobs with insurance, while others lose them. Some people retire, get sick, or die. But one would expect the number gaining and losing employer coverage would be about equal. RAND's 8.2 million increase is the difference between 14.5 million estimated to have gained employer sponsored insurance and 6.3 million estimated to have lost it (with an estimated 102.4 million having employer coverage in both polls).\nRAND's theory is that the threat of penalties has forced some to take up employer health care that they had chosen to go without before. In recent years the number of people covered by employer sponsored insurance has been declining, probably due to the ever increasing cost. So why would this trend suddenly be reversed so dramatically? If the individual mandate were the cause, surely there would have been all kinds of reports about such a dramatic increased enrollment? We have not seen any yet?\nMy belief is that the reported increase may be due to the design of the poll. This poll is unusual in that it interviewed the same people twice, first in September and then again in March. This allows it to see how many of the sample actually change from one type of cover to another. But its weakness is that inevitably somewhere between 5 and 10% of the people you interviewed in the first round can't be contacted again. Some may refuse to answer more questions, but more likely the phone number has been disconnected. RAND reports that 2641 people were interviewed in September but only 2,425 of these (91.8%) were interviewed in March. So RAND went ahead with those who answered both surveys, assuming that were similar to the whole population.\nUnfortunately this assumption is only justified if there is no correlation between life events that cause loss of employer insurance and RAND's failure to contact the sample again. But why do phone numbers get disconnected?\nsome people die or get sick and move into care;\nothers move to a different part of the country (too far to keep their old number);\nsome can't afford to pay their bill, or decide they can't afford to pay for both cell and home phone.\nAnd why do people lose employer coverage? Basically they either lost their job or they chose to leave it. If you lost a job you are more likely to be short of money and unable to pay the phone bill.You may also have to move to find work, or move in with relatives. You leave a job either because you found a better one (in which case you likely still get employer cover) or often because your family are moving to another City. New jobs may impose a waiting period for employer coverage. So it is quite possible that half the people who lost employer coverage between September 2013 and March 2014 were missed by this survey, as they were among the 8.2% of the sample who could not be contacted again.\nUntil we see other evidence to suggest that the mandate has caused a massive increase in take-up of employer offered cover, I just don't believe RAND's numbers.",

        "raw_content": "Does Alcohol Increase or Lower Blood Pressure?\nBlood pressure is a reading used to determine the amount of force placed on artery walls during blood circulation. A range of factors can contribute to an unhealthy increase in this force, including excessive alcohol consumption. The relationship between alcohol and high blood pressure (also known as hypertension) is well-documented. Risks for the condition appear in people who participate in binge drinking, as well as in chronic heavy drinkers with diagnosable symptoms of alcoholism. In turn, anyone diagnosed with hypertension has heightened odds of developing some life-threatening health conditions.\nIs There a Connection Between Alcohol and Blood Pressure Issues?\nShort-Term Effects of Alcohol on Blood Pressure\nLong-Term Effects of Alcohol on Blood Pressure\nDoes Alcohol Lower the Pressure?\nIf you or your loved one are affected by the combination of hypertension and drinking problems, you can reduce your risks for major complications by taking part in alcohol treatment. For more information on how to proceed, call (888)-459-5511 today.\nAlcohol Abuse and Blood Pressure Connection\nThe force of blood circulation puts pressure on the body\u2019s arteries at all times. Force generated while the heart actively beats is known as systolic pressure. Force generated while the heart rests between each beat is known as diastolic pressure. Doctors combine these two readings into a single measurement that resembles a fraction. The systolic reading forms the top half of the fraction, while the diastolic reading forms the bottom half. The National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute notes that healthy adults typically have a maximum combined measurement of 120/80 mmHg (millimeters of mercury). Systolic and diastolic readings that exceed this threshold may indicate the presence of hypertension or a precursor condition called prehypertension.\nExcessive alcohol intake has a wide-ranging adverse effect on the cardiovascular system. This system includes the heart itself. It also contains the arteries that carry oxygen-rich blood to the body and the veins that carry oxygen-depleted blood to the lungs for replenishment. Current evidence indicates that drinking has a direct impact on hypertension risks. However, scientists cannot fully explain the effects of alcohol on blood pressure.\nThe National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism points to two possible causes for the connection between drinking and hypertension. First, the presence of alcohol may lead to the release of \u201cfight-or-flight\u201d hormones that make the body\u2019s blood vessels narrow or constrict. Alternatively, the presence of alcohol may overstimulate the tiny muscles that line blood vessel walls and help maintain normal circulation.\nAs noted, anyone who participates in binge drinking can experience a significant increase in the amount of force placed on their arteries by blood circulation. In the U.S., the practice of alcohol binging has a precise definition. It occurs whenever a person consumes enough alcohol to reach a legal state of intoxication in a maximum of two hours. The federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention report that more than 15 percent of all American adults binge drink at least once a week (i.e., four times per month). More than nine in 10 heavy drinkers take part in this practice and thereby increase their chances of developing clinical alcoholism.\nPeople with limited involvement in binge drinking tend to experience only temporary symptoms of hypertension. When their blood alcohol levels fall back to normal, the heightened force placed on their arteries will dissipate, and their systolic and diastolic readings will return to normal. However, the situation can change in people who establish an ongoing pattern of alcohol binging. In such circumstances, a once-temporary spike in pressure levels can turn into an ongoing case of prehypertension or hypertension.\nLong-Term Effects of Excessive Drinking on Blood Pressure\nIn the long run, anyone who repeatedly drinks excessive amounts of alcohol can develop diagnosable alcoholism (now part of a larger condition called alcohol use disorder). One of the other known risks of chronic heavy drinking is hypertension. This fact holds true regardless of the presence or absence of other common risks for the condition, such as:\nRacial/ethnic background\nHabitual level of caffeine intake\nLevel of involvement in smoking\nSince alcohol consumption remains high in people affected by alcoholism, hypertension usually becomes the norm once it begins.\nAll long-term heavy drinkers run the risks of developing a specific form of high blood pressure called portal hypertension. This condition occurs when pressure levels increase in a blood vessel called the portal vein, which channels blood to the liver from the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, as well as from the gallbladder, pancreas, and spleen. Portal hypertension does not produce any direct symptoms. However, its effects can lead to complications that include:\nA distended abdomen\nVaricose veins in the upper GI tract (esophagus and stomach)\nPotentially heavy bleeding from damaged varicose veins in the upper GI tract\nThe underlying cause of portal hypertension in most chronic heavy drinkers is an advanced form of liver disease called cirrhosis. This condition occurs when scar tissue begins to replace the liver\u2019s healthy cells. It typically appears after a decade or more of severe alcohol abuse.\nSystem-wide hypertension can also lead to a variety of severe and long-term health problems in anyone affected by alcoholism. Many of these problems appear in the cardiovascular system. For example, people with chronic high blood pressure have increased chances of experiencing a coronary artery blockage followed by a heart attack. They also have increased chances of experiencing heart failure, a condition that occurs when the heart can no longer pump with enough force to meet the body\u2019s requirements for oxygen-bearing blood. Other cardiovascular conditions linked to hypertension include:\nAneurysms (i.e., bulging weak spots in the wall of an artery)\nIschemic stroke (caused by blockages that interfere with the brain\u2019s blood supply)\nHemorrhagic stroke (caused by ruptures in blood vessels that feed the brain)\nPeripheral artery disease (caused by blockages in the arteries that supply blood to the extremities, head or major organs)\nBlindness or other vision problems triggered by bleeding or broken blood vessels in the eyes\nBesides, high-pressure levels in the blood vessels associated with the kidneys can lead to something called chronic kidney disease (CKD). Kidneys affected by CKD can no longer fulfill their task of cleansing toxins and excess fluids from the bloodstream. Over time, a worsening of this condition can lead to the onset of outright kidney failure.\nCan Alcohol Lower Blood Pressure?\nOver the years, numerous studies have shown that light-to-moderate alcohol consumption is linked to a reduced risk for heart disease. This fact raises the question of whether alcohol lowers blood pressure in at least some circumstances. The answer is: not to any reliable degree. Researchers report that any potential protective benefit from light or moderate drinking likely comes from reduced levels of circulating \u201cbad\u201d cholesterol, not blood pressure-related changes. Also, for many people, alcohol may not play a significant role at all in lowering the odds for heart disease. Instead, the benefit may come from other lifestyle factors such as dietary alterations and increased involvement in exercise.\nRecap: How Does Alcohol Affect Blood Pressure?\nCan alcohol cause high blood pressure? The answer to this question is clearly yes. Heavy drinking can lead to an average pressure increase of five to 10 mmHg. An increase of this size can make all the difference between normal readings and the onset of hypertension. While hypertension is a temporary issue for occasional binge drinkers, it can turn into an ongoing health threat for recurrent alcohol bingers, as well as anyone suffering from the widespread effects of alcoholism.\nIt\u2019s important to note that heavy drinkers who quit \u201ccold turkey\u201d rather than seeking help from qualified professionals can increase their short-term hypertension risks. That\u2019s true because abrupt discontinuation of drinking in an addicted person can lead to severe, temporary spikes in the amount of systolic and diastolic force exerted on the arteries. Another warning focuses on the connection between blood pressure meds and alcohol. Evidence shows that these medications may not provide substantial protective benefits for people affected by alcoholism.\nEnrollment in an alcohol treatment program can help you or your loved one recover from alcoholism-related hypertension in a safe, monitored environment.

        "raw_content": "First Impressions: Mother, Radio Romance, Cross\nFebruary 5, 2018 busyahjussi K-Drama Reactions Leave a comment\nWe\u2019ve got three interesting pairs from our last set of January dramas: a mother and daughter who are not really blood-related; an aspiring radio writer trying to cast an aloof superstar for her show; and a young doctor seeking to take revenge against his adoptive father.\nI came in with high expectations for Mother largely because of the great reviews I read about the original material which was a 2012 Japanese drama. Mother is about a teacher who abducts her student to save her from domestic violence. Child abuse is a rare subject in dramaland so I\u2019m pleased that it was depicted with caution but the drama still managed to convey the severity of the issue. Lee Bo-young was great in her portrayal of the reserved and cold teacher Soo-jin but it was child actress Heo-yool who stood out. The little girl, despite her young age, has shown so much depth in her acting and is much better than most of those idols-turned-actors (don\u2019t curse at me fans). The first two episodes were not as tear-jerking as I expected but were good enough to convince me to get on board and follow the journey of Soo-jin and Hye-na as they discover the true meaning of family.\nVerdict: Mother has no love lines, bromance, or fantasy elements, unlike the many dramas that are hitting our screens today. It\u2019s not everyone\u2019s cup of tea, but you seldom see a show tackle an issue prevalent in our society today so you might consider watching it. You might also want to follow my episodic reaction to this tvN drama only here in Ahjummamshies.\nTo a lighter one this time\u2013Radio Romance. This drama is about neophyte Song Geu-rim (Kim So-hyun) who needs to cast superstar (Yoon Doo-joon) to a new radio program to have a shot of fulfilling her lifelong dream of becoming a radio writer. Kim So-hyun and Yoon Doo-joon have electrifying chemistry, and both have delivered excellent acting in their respective roles. The biggest problem with this show is that it feels too familiar. I discussed this with Unica Ahjumma (who will deliver you its episodic reactions) and we\u2019ve both agreed that this drama has a lot of cliches we\u2019ve seen in past dramas. We\u2019ve got this poor but hardworking heroine who meets her haughty but emotionally wrecked leading man and the two fall in love with each other. It\u2019s your typical rom-com, however, I have to admit that I was drawn to the screen whenever Doo-joon and So-hyun were on the screen together. Maybe, that\u2019s enough to convince you to watch it? Heh.\nVerdict: The title Radio Romance is very befitting of the show: you\u2019ve got radio, you\u2019ve got romance.\nGenre: Medical, Thriller\nNo. of Episodes: To be determined\nLastly to the drama that surprised me the most (for a lot of good reasons).\nThe story of Cross revolves around a young doctor named Kang In-kyu (Go Kyung-pyo) who is seeking to avenge the death of his father, who was brutally murdered, and his younger sister whose body organ was donated without his consent. The drama is a mixture of the medical and thriller genre. It was the first time I see Go Kyung-pyo play a cold character and he\u2019s very good at it. His sharp stares were enough to give me chills. There were a lot of tensions between the characters but I\u2019m warning you there\u2019s a lot more blood. If you have a weak stomach, then you might be watching this drama with a squint eye all throughout the episodes, because the surgical operations are just very graphic. Amazing though, after I braved to watch them without a blink, I kind of get used to it, maybe that\u2019s what you call desensitization. Organ donation and transplant is at the forefront of this show which turned out to be what I like the most about it. It explores the process of organ donation in South Korea and the stigma around it. I like how the drama tackled organ donation from two perspectives: one, from the family members and why they\u2019re usually opposed to it, and secondly, from the voluntary donors themselves and how they see it as doing a good deed by letting others live with their body parts.\nVerdict: This one of the dramas that have got a boring pilot episode but managed to pick up in the second one. I was crying so much at the end of the second episode but I guess you have to check it yourself not to spoil the fun. The medical genre is quite overdone in dramaland, but this one offers a twist that somehow makes it unique so you better watch it.\nHave you seen any of these new dramas? What\u2019s your first impression so far?\nCrossFirst ImpressionsGo Kyung-pyoHeo YoolKim So-hyunLee Bo-youngMotherRadioYoon Doo-joon\nPrevious Post: K-Drama Reaction: Two Cops | Finale",

        "raw_content": "Obama\u2019s Buying My Chicken Coop\nIt comes as little surprise to me that, precisely as I predicted, Obama\u2019s reaction to our crashing economy is to add another trillion+ in national debt by giving us another \u201cstimulus package\u201d. In fact, so eager is he to further sink our economy that he can\u2019t even wait until he\u2019s sworn in. How any sane person can believe these packages are a good idea is beyond me. It\u2019s like giving a drowning person a brick \u2013 it gives him something to hold onto, but it sends him to the bottom that much faster. Click on the link below for real, genuine ideas to save the economy:\nBut until we get a president with a clue, I\u2019ll take my check, and I\u2019ll let Obama buy me a chicken coop. We\u2019re designing it right now, and planning the breeds of chickens to buy through www.mypetchicken.com Besides the standard-sized egglayers, we\u2019re getting a few Silkie Bantams. These chickens are an amazingly bizarre breed with a history \u2013 they were brought over from China by Marco Polo.\nAnd they are so cute. I think they look like miniature gryphons.\nReal eggs, as opposed to those sickly and tasteless store-bought imitations, bug and slug control, free manure for my garden, and affectionate new pets that love to lap-sit and snuggle \u2013 you can\u2019t deny that chickens are awesome.\nSo good luck to you, Mr. Obama. Thanks for the hen house, and it\u2019ll be interesting to see what happens once everyone realizes you\u2019re already begun breaking your campaign promises, before you\u2019re even in office. That has to be some kind of record.\nChange. Remember that word, Mr. Obama? Change means doing something different, not just to just keeping repeating the previous administration\u2019s mistakes. At least in my back yard, though, the results of your \u201cstimulus\u201d will be crap that\u2019s actually beneficial to my garden.\nPosted in Life, Pets, Politics\nTagged campaign promises, chickens, economy, garden, Obama, Ron Paul, silkies, stimulus package\nThings I am Happy about at this Moment\u2026\n1) A new season of Chad Vader begins February 1st!!!!\nIf you don\u2019t know who or what Chad Vader is, go to this link and be educated. Truly, Chad Vader is one of the marvels of YouTube.\nhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4wGR4-SeuJ0\n2) They\u2019ve chosen a new Doctor, and it\u2019s no one I hate. It\u2019s actually no one I know either, but that\u2019s a good thing, as I am able to come into this relationship with no prior baggage. He\u2019s young, yes, but I\u2019ve watched this interview with him, and I\u2019ve seen a few moments of Doctor-ness in him. He\u2019s certainly got offbeat looks. I like that in a British actor.\nhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zog-6SrGxE0\nHowever, I still grieve the passing of the 10th Doctor.\n3) The new season of Lost begins in a few days, and as I\u2019ve just had a marathon viewing of the last season on DVD, I\u2019m primed and ready. Time travel and disappearing islands and many other things I may never understand, yay!\n4) My steampunk corset is half done. And I mean literally half done. Since it laces up the front and back, when it\u2019s unlaced, it\u2019s in two separate pieces. One side is completed, the other half still needs its embroidery, which I\u2019m putting off, because the first half wasn\u2019t all that fun to embroider. I tried a new embroidery stitch, and I\u2019m sorta regretting it. But yay \u2013 half of it looks gorgeous!\n5) I\u2019ve sold 3 steampunk penguins this month!\n6) It looks like Obama plans to pay for my chicken coop I\u2019m building this Spring. More on this later.\n7) And now I\u2019m going to watch a Jane Austen film on tv.\nPosted in costume, Life, Television\nTagged chad vader, corset, doctor who, lost, Matt Smith, Obama, penguin, steampunk\nIt won\u2019t be long before I\u2019ll be able to say \u201cDon\u2019t blame me, I voted for Baldwin\u201d. Between McCain and Obama, I was hoping Obama would get it, simply so that people might finally come to understand that it wasn\u2019t only Bush and the Republicans that have caused our country to get into such a mess. The difference between McCain and Obama is literally skin deep \u2013 there\u2019s no discernible difference when it comes to their foreign policy, morals, or their financial plans for America. And once everyone sees for themselves that Obama\u2019s \u201cchange\u201d is only about power for himself, not power for the people, we\u2019ll hopefully be able to get some real change started.\nhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rHGWu1DTr5w\nLet\u2019s start with bringing all of our troops home from everywhere, closing our borders to everyone but legal immigrants, and denying all welfare and benefits to those still here illegally. Let\u2019s restore the value of our money and stop allowing the federal government to tamper with aspects of our lives that they have no right to mess with. Let\u2019s return to the Constitution as written, rather than being forced to live by the \u2018interpretation\u2019 of a handful of judges.\nLet\u2019s start with getting rid of illegal income taxes by dissolving the IRS, and let\u2019s go back to being a prosperous nation! Did you know that none of the below taxes existed 100 years ago?\nIRS Penalties (more tax on top of tax)\nTelephone Federal, State, and Local Surcharge Tax\nNot ONE of these taxes existed 100 years ago\u2026and our nation was the most prosperous in the world. We had absolutely no national debt, we had the largest middle class in the world. So what went wrong?\nWe continued to elect men like Obama and McCain, that\u2019s why. We elected men whose only solution to debt was to borrow more and give out \u2018stimulus packages\u2019. We elected men whose reaction to families living from paycheck to paycheck was to raise taxes and create ever more types of taxes. We elected men whose idea of foreign policy was to completely ignore the command of the Founding Fathers and continue to interfere with and police the governments of other countries. We elected men whose idea of solving the illegal immigration crisis was to issue amnesties and to send our border patrol to Iraq.\nAccording to a recent poll 47% of Americans \u201cwas considering\u201d voting third party, and just in my own hometown it seemed like around 47% of people I spoke to said that they wanted to vote third party, but they \u201cdidn\u2019t want to waste their vote\u201d, because \u201cthere\u2019s no chance\u201d that a third party candidate would win. How cowardly is that? History is packed with instances of events occurring that had \u201cabsolutely no chance\u201d of succeeding\u2026but they succeeded in spite of the odds, because men were brave (and desperate) enough to do what they believed right and necessary despite what anyone else said.\nHow desperate will America have to become before Americans will regain their courage and do what they believe to be right? I think, in the coming months, we\u2019ll have a chance to find out.\nhttp://constitutionparty.org/\nCAN A NEW PARTY WIN?\nHISTORY SAYS \u201cYES\u201d \u2013 The Republican Party was itself a \u201cthird party\u201d in 1854 when it was founded. in 1856 it was defeated with John C. Fremont as its first presidential candidate. Just four years later, however,the Republicans defeated the incumbent party, the Whigs, running a man named Abraham Lincoln. In a four-way race, Lincoln won the electoral college vote and the presidency despite not being on the ballot in nine states and receiving only 38% of the popular vote (by comparison, Bill Clinton was elected president in 1992 with 43% of the popular vote).\nVOTERS SAY \u201cYES\u201d \u2013 Surveys show a steady increase in the public\u2019s desire for a third party. A May 8, 2007 Rasmussen survey found that fifty-eight percent (58%) of Americans say it would be good for the U.S. to have a truly competitive third political party. An April 27,2006 Rasmussen research poll indicates that a third party presidential candidate emphasizing border security would tie a democrat candidate and defeat a republican. In a race with more than three candidates, one third of the vote can mean victory. Constitution Party candidates were elected to partisan offices for the first time in 2006, including Montana State Representative Rick Jore.\nTagged chuck baldwin, Constitution, Constitution Party, election, freedom, illegal immigrants, Life, McCain, Obama, Ron Paul, taxes, third party, voting",

        "raw_content": "Venous leg ulcers are extremely common in the United States and affect between 500,000 to 2 million people annually, but many do not know the truth behind this condition. A venous leg ulcer (also called a venous stasis ulcer) is a wound that occurs when the veins don\u2019t move blood back toward the heart as they should. Blood leaks from the veins into the skin tissue and, as a result, causes the tissue to break down. Leg ulcers can take a long time to heal and they often recur. Venous ulcers are usually located on the lower leg, near the ankle.\nEarly signs of venous ulcers developing include:\nSwelling of the leg\nSkin changes (hardened, dry and a brown/red color)\nSkin may burn or itch in the effected area\nSigns of an existing venous ulcer include:\nAn open wound that is wet or weeping\nWound may be covered by a yellowish/white film\nSkin around the area remains swollen and discolored\nThe area around the wound may feel warm\nWhat Causes Venous Leg Ulcers?\nYou may be more likely to develop a venous leg ulcer if you have an injury to the leg, have had a blood clot in the leg (DVT), or have had multiple pregnancies. Both men and women are susceptible to venous ulcers. A big risk factor that people may not consider is Chronic Venous Insufficiency (CVI), the progressive condition that causes varicose veins. CVI is often the underlying condition that makes venous ulcers so difficult to heal. In fact, venous disease accounts for about 80% of leg ulcers! Often times, venous ulcers recur if the patient is suffering from CVI.\nChronic venous insufficiency occurs when the leg veins do not allow blood to travel back to the heart. Problems with valves in the veins can cause the blood to in flow both directions. Consequently, this can cause blood in the legs to pool. If chronic venous insufficiency is left untreated, pain, swelling, varicose veins and leg ulcers may result.\nIf you are suffering from a venous ulcer on your leg, you may be feeling hopeless that you will ever find permanent relief, but you are not alone! Luckily, CVI can be easily diagnosed and treated by a qualified physician who is experienced in leg vein disease. Once the venous insufficiency is treated, the patient can have much greater success in finally healing their leg ulcer. Alpha Vein Clinic in Las Vegas is here to help. Our physician, Dr Sassan Kaveh is highly experienced in treating the underlying vein disease that leads to venous ulcers. He is trained in the latest, minimally invasive treatments Radiofrequency Ablation and ClariVein.

The diaphragm separates the abdominal cavity\u2019s organs from the heart and lungs in the chest cavity. It is a dome-shaped muscular layer between the two cavities. The diaphragm is the part of the body that is affected by a hiatal or hiatus hernia. This muscle moves up and down for breathing. There are no open holes in the diaphragm, but key structures and vessels run through it. The biggest one of these is the food pipe, named the esophagus. It runs down from the back of the mouth to the stomach, connecting the two, and is critical for pushing food down.\u201d\nRead the full article: What is a Hiatal Hernia?\nGluten sensitivity: Biological mechanism uncovered U.S. Health Department Say\u2019s Flossing Has No Benefits",

        "raw_content": "Hillary Clinton Is Resetting Her Campaign, Again\nYesterday, Hillary Clinton\u2019s campaign released two ads and announced it would begin a five-week, $2 million ad buy in Iowa and New Hampshire. The media saw these ads as another poor attempt by the Clinton campaign to correct recent poll numbers that have the former-Secretary\u2019s favorability under water.\nMSNBC\u2019s Mika Brzezinski said the ads only add to Hillary Clinton\u2019s authenticity problem. While Bloomberg\u2019s Mark Halperin said, \u201cIf you\u2019re cautious and everything about your campaign is focus-grouped and polled, you\u2019re not being yourself.\u201d\nAP\u2019s Julie Pace said about the ads:\nJULIE PACE: It\u2019s interesting because if you look back at the start of Hillary Clinton\u2019s campaign, which was just a couple of months ago, the themes that she\u2019s striking in these ads \u2013 this is what they said the campaign would be about. AND THEN OBVIOUSLY THE EMAILS AND BERNIE SANDERS GETTING IN AND PUSHING HER A BIT HAS SHIFTED THE FOCUS. So I think this is them trying to get back to what they think the core of this campaign should be, get on the airwaves at a time when the airwaves are not going to be flooded with even Republicans at this point and try to almost, almost RESET in a way, get back to what they want to be talking about.\nAccording to The Washington Post, the Clinton campaign wasn\u2019t supposed to start airing ads until November:\nA few weeks ago, the Clinton campaign announced that it had reserved $7.7 million in advertising time for Iowa and New Hampshire, the states that hold the first two contests in the nominating process. At that time, officials said that the ads could begin as early as NOVEMBER and gave no indication that she would start a flight of ads far earlier.\nIt would seem falling poll numbers have caused the Clinton campaign to launch these ads earlier than planned in an attempt to stop the bleeding. And it should be noted that Clinton\u2019s favorability continues you to fall without one Republican dollar being spent on TV ads to attack Clinton.",

The bags are packed, my cat is provided for, and the fridge is empty of perishables.\nHere\u2019s the thing . . . I\u2019m all jazzed about seeing my daughter and getting to know my son-in-law, and of course, being there for the birth (even though I have to wait at home until the baby is born). But Dani and Kendall are going to be non-pulsed about it all. Yes, their excited but they are in their own place, they have seen her belly grow and heard the heartbeats and seen the sonograms.\nI haven\u2019t seen them in two years. It is such a long time and a lot of longing in the in-between time. All that time I think about them. But I remember what it was like to be a new mother and what it was like to be living far from my parents. There wasn\u2019t the same emotional investment that my parents may have had. I was a twenty-something with a good life and a lot of living to do. Part of the reason I moved 3,000 miles was to get away from my parents. I need to contain some of this enthusiasm.\nMy son parented me about boundaries and appropriate behavior at Dani\u2019s. Yori said Dani was an independent, disciplined, intelligent woman who knew her own mind. I needed to remember I was there on vacation and not try to do everything for them. They wouldn\u2019t appreciate it at all. I have to remember to relax, take care of my healing foot, and just be present. He is right, of course, not that I necessarily know how to relax and let the world revolve around me.\nBut until then, I\u2019m jiggling. Wish me luck and hope that I behave appropriately. Be back in 2 1/2 weeks.\nappropriate behaviorbabyboundariesdaughterFamilyGrandmothergrandparentingmotheringSon-in-law\nPrevious PostExpectationsNext PostNonny land\nOne thought on \u201cOff I Go!\u201d\nSafe travels! and bring back a photo!",

        "title": "Learning about Presence \u2013 Journey of the Heart",
        "raw_content": "\u201cMore and more, the desire grows in me simply to walk around, greet people, enter their homes, sit on their doorsteps, play ball, throw water, and be known as someone who wants to live with them. It is a privilege to have the time to practice this simple ministry of presence. Still, it is not as simple as it seems.\nMy own desire to be useful, to do something significant, or to be part of some impressive project is so strong that soon my time is taken up by meetings, conferences, study groups, and workshops that prevent me from walking the streets. It is difficult not to have plans, not to organize people around an urgent cause, and not to feel that you are working directly for social progress. But I wonder more and more if the first thing shouldn\u2019t be to know people by name, to eat and drink with them, to listen to their stories and tell your own, and to let them know with words, handshakes, and hugs that you do not simply like them, but truly love them.\u201d\nIn the last month, God has been teaching me a valuable lesson on Presence. The lesson must have begun a long time ago, but I first noticed it during the Confirmation Retreat weekend of March 9 \u2013 11. I had felt somehow that I should stay the entire weekend with the confirmands and the service team even though I was a very late addition to the team, and even though I had initially planned to sleep at home and drive to CAYC early in the morning.\nWhy did I decide to stay over?\n1. There was an inner voice that prompted me to be fully present at the retreat which I would not be able to do if I drove back and forth from home.\n2. After an intense spiritual preparatory session with the other sessionists on the Tuesday before the retreat, I realized how important it was that we were a real team instead of 6 individuals who were giving sessions at the retreat. I knew that choosing to stay the weekend with them would enhance the sense that we were a team.\n3. It was a really young service team that was running the retreat this year. I felt a sense of responsibility that I should be there to represent the parish (since I am staff) and simply to be an adult presence among them.\nSo I stayed the weekend. But quite quickly, desolation set in. For the most part, I felt like I didn\u2019t know what my role was at the retreat. Was I simply a sessionist? Or was I also there as the Director of the Youth & Young Adults Office? If I was there as both, what was the role of the Director at this retreat? Perhaps it would not have been so confusing if I had taken up the invitation months earlier to coordinate and direct this retreat. But I had turned it down because I did not feel called to do it. And now, the young leaders of the retreat were doing such an outstanding job without my help, I began to feel quite redundant and useless.\nI didn\u2019t have to facilitate anything. Nobody consulted me on anything \u2013 they all knew exactly what they had to do. Even when I saw some loopholes, I felt torn as to whether or not to offer my help or whether I should just keep quiet and let them handle it (I often chose the latter). All along I knew this entire retreat was a learning opportunity for the young adults and a chance for them to really take ownership of their mission. That conviction kept me in the background even though I was dying from a lack of clear purpose and from the sense that I was not really needed at all. I began to wonder why I stayed overnight with them instead of driving in from home because I couldn\u2019t see what difference staying over made for anyone. I really had very little to do!\nThat weekend, God showed me just how much I still needed to feel needed by others; how much I needed to feel useful; how much I still needed to know \u201cthe plan\u201d and my role in it. I\u2019m so used to being clear and in control, I felt insecure and unimportant because I didn\u2019t have a clear role.\nNevertheless, I surrendered to God\u2019s pruning. I knew that God was liberating me from within so that I can be more ready to serve him wherever and whenever he called. I mourned my uselessness (which seemed to be confirmed when I did not receive any acknowledgement or affirmation after the retreat), accepted my feelings, and moved on with God. And it was only after I had moved on that God sent people to tell me what my purpose had been at the retreat. And the answer is: PRESENCE.\nI was taken aback when I was told that my staying over with everyone made a big difference \u2013 just that act of staying over, of choosing to be with them throughout the retreat. I was told that because I was there, they felt that everything was going to be OK, and that this feeling of assurance made them feel more confident and free to do their jobs. Just yesterday, one of the young leaders said that my presence was like that of a lifeguard at a swimming pool or beach. Although the lifeguard isn\u2019t swimming and seems to be just \u2018looking cool\u2019 with his shades, the swimmers feel protected and assured by his presence because they know that should they encounter problems, he would be there to save them. The lifeguard\u2019s presence made the swimmers freer and bolder to swim. Suddenly, I realized that I was there at the retreat not just as sessionist or Director, but as Ann \u2013 and all that being Ann means to them. I realized that simply by being fully present and available to them, and by being there to take in the overview (much like a lifeguard), I was playing a very significant role!\nI feel like God is teaching me something of great beauty and significance. I have always had the intellectual knowledge that presence was important. But it\u2019s more than an intellectual understanding now. I am more aware that God wants to be present to others through my presence. Sometimes it\u2019s not a matter of whether I have anything to \u2018do\u2019 at a certain event. Just being there could be the greatest thing I can offer them.\nBut the most important lesson of all for me in all of this is not about Presence. The main lesson still remains simply, \u201cBe faithful.\u201d Though I had not known the importance that my presence would serve at the retreat, I stayed because I discerned that I should. Growth in awareness and understanding of how to serve God is important, but that is still not as important as listening to Christ and doing whatever he tells me.\nMay I always be faithful to Your voice, beloved Master. Help me to obey simply and immediately as soon as I recognize Your voice. Let me be as You wish me to be. Amen.",

I'm really excited to bring my knowledge and experience to my new role at ArtStarts!\nSome of the things I enjoy most are travelling, tasting new cuisines, reading, writing, dancing and picking up new languages.\nAs someone who strongly believes in the importance of art in everyone's life, I was really drawn to ArtStarts' vision of a society where the arts are considered an essential part of education. I was really excited by the idea of being part of a team that's working so hard to support young people, artists, teachers and the community through its various programs and resources. I'm so happy to be in a welcoming environment where creativity really flourishes!\nArt started at a young age for me, probably when I was first able to pick up crayons, although some of my drawings might have ended up on the wall! I also developed a love for writing stories and later on in high school; I had the opportunity of exploring film and theatre production.\nHow does creativity play a role in your life today?\nI see creativity as playing a role in my life every day because I have opportunities to be creative on a daily basis, whether I'm choosing how to put together an outfit in the morning, trying out a new recipe, solving a problem at work or just being inspired by a song I'm listening to.\nYou're working with schools to coordinate Artists on Tour visiting schools across BC. In your opinion, what impact do performances in schools have on young audiences?\nI think performances in schools have a huge impact on young audiences, firstly because it's a chance for them to experience something outside of the classroom and away from textbooks. Performances create a sense of excitement for young people and it gives them an opportunity to connect and learn in a unique way. When young people witness these performances it also sparks their own creativity and can really inspire young people to pursue and create their own art. The impact on young audiences can really have far reaching effects and it's the reason I'm a huge believer in making art accessible to everyone.\nI'm really looking forward to working with artists and teachers to support the process of bringing art performances into schools across BC. I'm also really excited to learn more about all of our artists, watch some of their performances and hear from young people and schools about their experiences!",

Just as in 2016, UK companies are expected to invest heavily in upgrading their existing systems this year as they look to provide better protection against cyber attacks, data losses and incidents of unauthorised system.\nA recent estimate from the Tech Partnership suggests already as many as 58,000 cyber security specialists working in the UK, but the number is nowhere near enough. Research conducted by job site Indeed published last month estimates that the number of cyber security roles currently vacant in the UK is the third highest globally. And the gap between supply and demand for competent candidates is continuing to grow whereas other European countries \u2013 including France, Germany and Ireland \u2013 are manage to close it as they successfully recruit more expertise into the area.\nBoth industry and government knows the country has a problem, and have tabled various approaches to fix it. The national cyber security strategy (NCSS) launched last year promises \u00a31.9bn of public sector investment in beefing up Britain\u2019s cyber security defences over the next five years for example, some of which should fund the teaching of more cyber security related skills in Britain\u2019s schools, colleges and universities.\nApprenticeships will also play their part, with 23 cyber security roles in critical national infrastructure (CNI) posted by the Department of Culture, Media and Sport in February reputedly attracting 1,250 candidates. The plan is to swell the number of those apprenticeships to 1,000 by 2021. How much the extra numbers will help to close the widening skills gap remains to be seen however, and there is a real danger that Britain\u2019s digital progression could be handicapped in the meantime.\nPosted in security, TechnologyTagged Apprenticeships, security, Security Engineers, Security Recruitment, Skills GapLeave a comment\n\u2190 New light for UK connectivity services\nSD-WAN tipped for rapid adoption \u2192",

        "raw_content": "In April 2014 the series \u2018Decca\u2019s Most Wanted Recitals\u2019 was launched: fifty albums by legendary singers, often never released on CD before. It\u2019s a true treasure chest and it\u2019s to be hoped that it is still available.\nIt was all the \u2018fault\u2019 of Victor Suzan. This employee of Universal Mexico went through the old Decca archives and lovingly restored no less than fifty albums never released on CD before. She digitized and remastered them, adding bonuses where possible and utilising the artwork from the original LP issues. Nostalgia at its bests, and moreover of the highest quality\u2026\nFortunately, all Universal branches responded more than enthusiastically to her initiative. EDC/Hannover picked it up and so the series \u2018Decca\u2019s Most Wanted Recitals\u2019 was born. The first batch consisting of twenty titles appeared on the market in early April 2014. Fifteen more titles followed in June and the last fifteen in September of that year.\nThese are treasures. Real treasures. For many, certainly younger voice lovers there is plenty to (re)discover. Enough also to shake up their world view, because in the fifties and sixties the word \u201ccrossover\u201d did not yet exist and musicals were just as much appreciated as Wagner and Verdi.\nI have selected ten titles from the collection and divided them into two parts in random order.\nGEORGE LONDON (4808163)\nLet\u2019s start with George London. He was the very first American who sang Boris Godunov (in Russian!) at the Bolshoi in Moscow and was considered one of the best Wotans/Wanderers of his time. His Scarpia was also legendary during his lifetime.\nBelow is George London (in a perfect Russian!) as Boris, recording from a concert from 1962\nHe started his career in the early forties as a member of the \u2018Bel-Canto Trio\u2019, with soprano Frances Yeend and \u2026 Mario Lanza as the other two members.\nOn the CD On Broadway he gives a masterclass how to sing the music of musical composers Rogers, Kern and Loewe.\nBelow London sings \u2018f I loved you\u2019 by Rogers and Hammerstein.\nYou get Wagner as a bonus.\nCESARE SIEPI: Easy to love (4808177)\nNot only Americans considered Broadway as something to take seriously. The Don Giovanni and one of the biggest Verdi-basses of the second half of the last century, Cesare Siepi, didn\u2019t look down on the musical theatre either.\nHis CD on which he gives his vision on the songs of Cole Porter is called Easy to Love. It sounds \u2018easy\u2019 indeed, but it is not at all. Porter\u2019s music benefits from simplicity, coupled with the best vocal chords in the world, and Siepi has it all.\nHis interpretation of \u2018Night and Day\u2019 is one of the most beautiful ones I\u2019ve heard in my life. Not to mention \u2018So in love\u2019 or the delicious \u2018Blow, Gabriel blow\u2019 from Anything Goes.\nAs a bonus we get to hear some of his best Verdis: Nabucco, Philip II and a Boccanegra like you don\u2019t hear anymore.\nCESARE SIEPI: The romantic voice of Cesare Siepi (4808178)\nThis CD is entitled The romantic voice of Cesare Siepi and that is exactly what you get: a beauty of a voice that awakens all the romantic feelings in you!\nNo Broadway here anymore, but popular Italian songs that fit Siepi like a glove: just delicious.\nWhat really makes the CD special are the bonus tracks, with arias from Meyerbeers Robert le Diable and Les Huguenots, La Juive by Hal\u00e9vy and \u2013 for most people a real rarity \u2013 an aria from Salvator Rosa by Ant\u00f4nio Carlos Gomes. My goodness, what beautiful music! I ask (again): when do we get to see another opera by Gomes? After the performances of his Il Guarany in 1994 in Bonn it has remained silent for much too long around this Brazilian Verdi.\nBelow \u2018Di Sposo Di Padre Le Gioie Serene\u2019 from Salvator Rosa van Gomes, 1954:\nThe album was recorded in 1961 (songs) and in 1954 (arias) and the sound is excellent. In the arias Siepi is accompanied phenomenally well by the Orchestra dell\u2019Accademia di Santa Cecilia and Alberto Erede. At that time Erede was considered a \u2018decent\u2019 conductor, but now he would be considered one of the greatest opera conductors of all. He gives his soloist all the space he needs and allows the orchestra to breathe with him.\nARNOLD VAN MILL (4808167)\nThe Dutch bass Arnold van Mill is almost completely forgotten nowadays. How unfair! His voice is a bit reminiscent of the young Kurt Moll, which of course is also due to the repertoire. Beautiful!\nBelow is the duet from Der Fliegende Holl\u00e4nder. Arnold Van Mill sings Daland and George London Der Holl\u00e4nder:\nVan Mill was mainly famous for his Wagner roles. Unfortunately they are not on this CD. But his smooth bass was also very suitable for Singspiel and operetta. His Lortzing, Cornelius, Nicolai and Weber (all present on this CD) are a pure delight for the ear. All real collector items. Thank you, Decca!\nThe CD is complemented by Russian songs, sung by the Bulgarian bass Raphael Ari\u00e9.\nThe combination is not really a happy one: not only does the repertoire differ like day and night, the voices are incomparable as well; which does not prevent me from enjoying him enormously! Hopefully Decca will have more of Ari\u00e9 on the shelf, because my wish list with his recordings is quite long!\nBelow Ari\u00e9 sings \u2018Ella giammai m\u2019amo\u2019 from Don Carlo\nPosted in achtergrondartikelen, English, opera/operette/liederenrecitals and tagged Arnold_van_Mill, Cesare_Siepi, Decca's_Most_Wanted_Recordings, Easy_to_love, George_London, On_Broadway, Raphael_Ari\u00e9 on 11 januari 2019 by basiaconfuoco. 1 reactie\nHe was a child prodigy. At the age of twenty he was already world-famous and established as a composer. He wrote several operas, songs, concertos, symphonies, quartets, quintets and some more. His compositions were performed by prominent musicians such as Arthur Schnabel, Carl Fleisch, Bruno Walter, Rose and his quartet, B\u00f6hm, Tauber, Lotte Lehmann, Strauss\u2026\nHe was the inventor of the famous Hollywood sound, which in reality was nothing more than a combination of the Viennese schmalz (including the waltz) and a healthy dose of tension and a sense of drama. Worshipped before the war, totally ignored afterwards.\nKorngold, the son of a leading Austrian music critic, was destined to to become a musician \u2013 a genius! His father had not called him Wolfgang for nothing.\nOn the recommendation of Mahler, who became quite impressed by the boy\u2019s talent, he was taught composition by Zemlinsky. After eighteen months (Korngold was then 12 years old) his teacher thought it was pointless to teach him anything.\nAn amusing anecdote also dates from that time. Zemlinsky was appointed chief conductor in Prague. When he heard that Korngold studied counterpoint with Hermann Gr\u00e4dener (then a famous music teacher), he sent him a telegram: \u201cDear Erich, I heard that you are studying with Gr\u00e4daner. And, is he already making progress?\u201d\nBelow: Korngold plays \u2018Der Schneeman\u2019 (piano roll):\nKorngold was eleven years old when his ballet pantomime Der Schneeman premiered at the Vienna State Opera and at the age of eighteen he presented two operas: Ring des Polykrates and Violanta. The last one starring Maria Jeritza. Both achieved enormous success. \u201cMeister von Himmel gefallen\u201d, headlined one of the newspapers.\nMaria Jeritza as Violanta\nIn 1934 Korngold left for Hollywood. His friend Max Reinhardt, a world-famous stage director, asked him to write music for A Midsummer Night\u2019s Dream, a film he worked on at the time. Thanks partly to the beautiful music it became a great success and the directors of Warner Bros. offered Korngold a fantastic contract.\nBelow is a promotional film about making A Midsummer Night\u2019s Dream:\nKorngold lived between two worlds. Literally and figuratively. In the years 1934-1938 he commuted between Hollywood and Vienna. In the winter he worked on film music, the summers he spent on his more \u2018serious\u2019 works.\nAt that time his last opera, Die Kathrin, was created. The premiere (originally planned for January 1938) had to be postponed several times. Richard Tauber, who had taken over the leading role from Jan Kiepura, was working on a film in England and was only available in March.\nOn 22 January a telegram arrived: whether Korngold could be back in Hollywood within ten days, to start the score for The Adventures of Robin Hood as soon as possible. Korngold considered it an omen and with the last ship he left Europe on 29 January 1938. On 3 February he arrived in New York, together with his wife and one of his two children (the rest of the family followed a month later).\nBelow is a trailer of Robin Hood:\nHe was doing well in America and was very successful (two of his films won an Oscar), but still he didn\u2019t feel at home there. His heart and soul had stayed behind in Vienna. In 1949 he travelled back to Vienna, but nobody knew him anymore. In Salzkammergut he visited his villa, where he had once been so happy. What a pleasure that you have returned\u201d, was said to him. And when will you leave again? Disillusioned he returned to Hollywood, where seven years later he literally died of a broken heart.\nBelow: Konrad Jarnot sings Korngold\u2019s \u2018Sonnett fur Wien\u2019:\n\u201cThis cover illustration of the Schott publication of excerpts from Die tote Stadt, arranged for piano duet, depicts very well the sort of atmosphere which Korngold sought to portray. The medieval city of Bruges with its dark streets, canals, processing nuns and tolling church bells.\n\u201cAny act requires oblivion,\u201d Nietsche wrote in one of his pamphlets. \u201cTo survive one sometimes has to destroy one\u2019s past.\u201d Korngold must have known, because it is precisely with these words that you can summarize the real themes of his best-known opera, Die Tote Stadt.\nAfter the death of his wife, Paul, a widower, locked himself up in his house in a deserted Bruges, where he lives among the relics. One day he meets a young woman who reminds him of his deceased wife, and in whom he sees her reincarnation. What follows is a \u2018Vertigo\u2019-like, hallucinatory search through the mystical and misty city, balancing between dream and reality. Only when Paul lets go of the past, he can leave the \u2018dead city\u2019 and start a new future.\nThe Tote Stadt had its world premiere in Cologne (under the direction of Otto Klemperer) and Hamburg on 4 December 1920, followed by the rest of the world. Before the war it was the most played of all contemporary operas. And because Maria Jeritza had chosen the work for her American debut, Die Tote Stadt became the first opera to be performed in the Metropolitan Opera in New York after the First World War. In German.\nBelow: Maria Jeritza sings \u2018Gl\u00fcck das mir verblieb\u2019 in a 1922 recording:\nKORNGOLD IN THE NETHERLANDS\ntaken from \u201cA boy of cheeky sway\u201d by Caspar Wintermans\nAfter the very successful premieres in Cologne and Hamburg, Die Tote Stadt travelled around the world. A year later there were also enthusiastically received performances in Vienna and New York, but the Netherlands had to wait until 1929. The opera was performed on 26 January in The Hague, in the Building of Arts and Sciences. It was a one-off performance in the series of so-called \u2018Extraordinary Opera Evenings\u2019, produced by Jacob Meihuizen, then director and intendant of the Building of Arts and Sciences.\nKorngold himself conducted the Residentie Orkest, and the leading roles were sung by the then stars from Hamburg: Gertrude Geyersbach, Fritz Scherer and Josef Degler. It was an overwhelming success, even though the hall was not fully occupied. After the second act the applause was so great that the composer had to appear on stage.\nYet the review in the NRC was only moderate. The reviewer found the music old-fashioned, weak and sentimental, and the story (of which I don\u2019t think he had understood much) too ridiculous for words. How different in Het Volk! A.d.W. had already studied the score long before the performance, and considered it a \u201cwork of inwardness, of lautrer Innenklang\u201d. He also added: \u201cAfter a year of dealing with work, I dared to express my understanding of its inner value in written and spoken words.\u201d\nIn his extensive article he concludes that he loves the music: \u201cThere is something very attractive and youthful in it, the heart is always strongly involved, and nowhere the technical skills dominate. An important thing in this music, filled with and drenched in moods, is that it moves from peak to peak, always with tension and with core themes full of invention\u201d. And he ends with: \u201cA work like this needs to be given again later. I believe that the public will certainly appreciate it, now that the ice of acquaintance has broken\u201d.\nA work like this needs to be given again later\u2026.. A.d.W. wrote it 90 years ago, on 28 January 1929. After 1938 \u2018Die Tote Stadt\u2019 was no longer played. Only at the end of 1970s it started a cautious comeback.\nIf you would like to read more about Korngold in the Netherlands, I warmly recommend \u201cEen jongen van brutale zwier\u201d (\u201cA boy of cheeky sway\u201d) by Caspar Wintermans.\nWintermans in the introduction to his book: \u201cIn a life that was overshadowed by jalousie de m\u00e9tier and racism, this pet child of muses has created an oeuvre that shimmers and glows with joy and beauty, that gives lustre and colour to the existence of lovers of late-Romanticism, who know that it is never too late for romance. \u201c\nPosted in achtergrondartikelen, English and tagged Caspar_Wintermans, Die_Tote_Stadt, Erich_Wolfgang_Korngold, Lotte_Lehmann on 20 december 2018 by basiaconfuoco. 5 reacties",

The Texas-based oil companies\u2014Valero and Tesoro\u2014have spent more than $3 million to qualify the initiative, $1.5 million of that since oil started gushing in the Gulf of Mexico. They are expected to spend more than $100 million to pass the measure.\n\u201cThis deceptive dirty energy proposition will be an economic and environmental policy disaster for California, just as the BP oil spill is to the states along the Gulf of Mexico,\u201d said Mayor Gavin Newsom. \u201cThis measure will cost our state thousands of jobs in the Bay Area, derail California\u2019s leadership in developing solar, wind and other clean energy, and result in tons of polluted air in the San Francisco Bay Area and throughout our state. It simply must be defeated.\u201d\nCalifornia\u2019s clean energy standards passed the legislature with bipartisan support and was signed into law by Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger in 2006. Although proposition proponents say the measure would \u201csuspend\u201d the law until the state's unemployment rate drops to 5.5 percent, that has happened only three times in the past 30 years. This means the law would, in effect, be killed, as would California's growing clean energy economy.\n\u201cCalifornia is America\u2019s clean energy leader, with more than 500,000 jobs, 12,000 businesses and more than $3 billion in venture capital invested because of the state\u2019s landmark clean energy and clean air standards,\u201d said Sierra Club Chairman Carl Pope. \u201cCalifornians cannot allow two Texas oil companies and their deep pockets to spend millions to kill off this jobcreating growth so we remain addicted to fossil fuels.\u201d\nThe New York Times reported in June that Valero is one of the largest contributors to efforts to block federal regulations on offshore drilling. Valero and Tesoro were recently ranked numbers 12 and 32 on a national list of \u201cToxic 100 Air Polluters,\u201d according to a report released by University of Massachusetts Amherst Political Economy Research Institute (PERI).\n\u201cI have witnessed first hand the impact of the oil disaster in the Gulf. The fishermen and local residents are suffering physically, mentally and economically,\u201d said Gina Solomon, M.D., M.P.H, senior scientist at the Natural Resources Defense Council. \u201cThere is no cure once an oil spill happens. The only prescription is prevention by transitioning quickly to cleaner energy\u2014that\u2019s exactly why we have to defeat the oil companies dirty energy proposition.\u201d\n\u201cThe Gulf oil disaster is a reminder of how at risk we are for a catastrophic spill here in San Francisco Bay. We need to end our addiction to oil for the sake of our environment and our economy,\u201d said Deb Self, Executive Director, San Francisco Baykeeper. \u201cJust like BP, these Texas oil companies are trying to shirk responsibility for the damages they cause. We won\u2019t let that happen in California, where environmental laws passed and supported by the people must stand.\"\nWhile California has banned off-shore oil drilling, huge oil tankers pass under the Golden Gate and Bay bridges every day to deliver oil to Californians. Three years ago, the Cosco Busan tanker hit the Bay Bridge and spilled more than 50,000 gallons of oil that fouled our beaches and killed wildlife.\n\"Come November, voters will have a chance to make their voices heard. Do they want a dirty, polluted environment or do they want to protect it and grow our economy?\" said Wade Crowfoot, West Coast political director, Environmental Defense Fund. \"The majority of Californians support clean energy and this election will give them a chance to confirm that.\"\nFor the latest campaign news and developments, please visit www.StopDirtyEnergyProp.com and friend us on Facebook (www.facebook.com/StopDirtyEnergyProp.com), Twitter (www.twitter.com/StopDirtyEnergy) and YouTube (www.youtube.com/StopDirtyEnergyProp).",

        "raw_content": "The fine print nobody reads: what to do so government can use your service\nIf you offer a service online, chances are, government agencies can\u2019t agree to your standard terms of service, at least not has posted. More than 75 of the web\u2019s largest services, including Twitter, Facebook, Google, and GitHub have negotiated custom terms of service agreements with the federal government allowing more than 2.7M government employees to use their service. If you\u2019re looking to enter the federal market, the following is a read out from a round table discussion at the recent Collaborate conference in Washington, D.C.:\nWhy federal agencies can\u2019t agree to your terms of service\nTerms of service agreements are often called clickwrap or browserwrap agreements, meaning that by either clicking an \u201cI agree\u201d checkbox when they sign up, or simply by using a service with a terms of service (TOS) linked in the footer of each page, the user has said to agree to be bound by the document, essentially a contract between the service provider and the user. However, terms of service agreements, often written by large companies and agreed to most commonly by individuals contain several unfavorable clauses, that government agencies cannot agree to by force of law. Even if not illegal, the government may be able to pursue their own organizational preference by virtue of their superior bargaining position. Here are a few of the most commonly negotiated clauses:\nThe contracting parties - Most terms of service agreements are written to bind an individual user, not their employer. Most government employees are not in a position to bind the federal government. Even if so, a service provider should prefer the agreement be executed on behalf of the employer, not the individual (who e.g., would presumably have deeper pockets in the event the relationship went south).\nForum selection - If you\u2019re a California based start up, you\u2019ll likely want any dispute to be heard in California courts. As a matter of pure practicality, it\u2019s a lot easier to go to the courthouse downtown, than to hire a law firm across the country and fly out key witnesses. For government agencies based out of Washington, D.C., they\u2019ll likely prefer the parties agree that courts in DC would hear any potential dispute.\nChoice of law - Regardless of where the dispute is heard publicly, your standard terms of service may state that a particular state\u2019s law (likely either California or Delaware) will govern the relationship, but federal agencies will prefer federal law prevail (due to a little thing called the Supremacy Clause), and state/local agencies will likely prefer their local law.\nIndemnification - Indemnification requires the user, here the government agency, to cover the service provider for any loss arising out of the contract. Under the Anti-Deficiency Act, such an agreement would be consider an unaccounted for allocation, meaning the government is essentially guaranteeing an unknown amount of federal funds for a potential dispute.\nDispute resolution - Your terms of service might have an alternative dispute resolution clause, whereby you require a wronged party to first submit their claim to mediation or binding arbitration. As a small start up, this may allow you to save legal costs for many disputes (due to the relaxed rules), but for the government which knows the federal court system and has many attorneys on staff, they\u2019d prefer to go straight to court.\nEndorsement - An agency is going to require that their use of your service not be used in promotional materials in a way that implies endorsement. But note, most amendments will allow you to carve out a logically necessary exception for public-facing profiles, which you can use and link to freely.\nSecurity, records, etc. - Government agencies have government-specific security, record keeping, and audit requirements. Even if your service does not meet all requirements today, the government may wish to contractually bind you to continue that discussion and to implement those controls as they may need in the future.\nHow an agency signs up for a service\nOffice of Management and Budget Memorandum M-13\u201310 outlines a standard process for government agencies to sign up for social media services (with a definition of \u201csocial media\u201d encompassing most web-based services). At a high level, the process looks something like this:\nA staffer decides a service will further the agency\u2019s mission\nThe staffer checks GSA\u2019s list of pre-negotiated TOS amendments\nIf the service has pre-negotiated a TOS amendment, the staffer submits the document to their agency\u2019s general counsel for review\nIf the service has not yet negotiated an agreement with the government, they reach out to the service directly to negotiate a custom amendment\nIf all goes well, the agency can use the service (and can create as many accounts as they\u2019d like)\nA (slightly) smarter approach\nIf an agency reaches out to your service, chances are, you\u2019ll be asked to negotiate a one-off amendment that only governs the relationship between you and that particular agency, not the government as a whole. As a result, each time a new agency wants to use your service (there are thousands of them), you\u2019ll have to negotiate, print, sign, fax (yes fax), and countersign an amendment, a process that can take weeks to months each time.\nInstead, there are two things you can do to streamline the process:\nStart the discussion by using GSA Standard TOS Amendment Template. This boilerplate amendment bring many common TOS clauses to a place where the government can agree to then, and will provide a common framework between agencies, facilitating reuse.\nOnce an amendment is negotiated with a single agency, reach out to GSA to get the signed amendment added to their list of social media providers. Beyond the practicalities of a standard starting point to each negotiation, being listed will provide you with greater visibility among government staffers.\nAn even smarter approach\nEven if you\u2019re using a common template, the time required to execute one-off agreements with each agency can quickly add up, especially as government users head into the thousands. Instead, as the government\u2019s use of your service grows, you can use the GSA Standard TOS Amendment Template as a starting point, to create a standard terms of service amendment, applicable to all government users.\nUnlike the negotiated amendment which is executed by each agency, the idea here is to post this fed-friendly TOS along side your standard TOS, and to incorporate it into your standard TOS by reference, meaning a government agency could simply sign up and use your service, under the same clickwrap/browserwrap logic that would prevent them from using the service normally. Under this arrangement, a standard agency sign up flow might look like:\nStaffer sends the fed-friendly TOS amendment to their general counsel for review\nIf all goes well, agency begins using the service (with no intervention on your part)\nA few gotchas\nNo service is required to do business with the government. The choice of whether you offer your service to the government or not is a business decision, not a legal one. Compliance may be costly, but the exposure and userbase may be attractive, especially to a growing startup.\nWhen negotiating with government entities at any level of government be sure to be sensitive as to which clauses are objected to because they are prohibited by force of law (e.g., indemnification and the anti-deficiencies act), and which are being objected to out of organizational preference (e.g., forum selection). Many large organizations (whether public or private), will ask for certain things as a matter of habit, before entering into any contract. While the government is often going to be in the superior bargaining position, you may be able to enforce your standard terms of service, especially at the state or local level.\nLast, I\u2019ve purposely avoided discussing procurement, which is a much larger issue worthy of its own post. Most social media services used by the government under this model are cost-free, or if offered under a freemium model, are used at the free-usage tier. If you do offer a paid service, be sure to account for the possibility that the agency might upgrade at some point during the relationship.\nHow to Amend Your App\u2019s Terms of Service for Federal Agencies\nFederal-Compatible Terms of Service Agreements\nNegotiated Terms of Service Agreements\nModel TOS template\nOMB Memorandum M-13\u201310 on Anti-deficiency Act Implications of Certain Online Terms of Service Agreements\nAs always, as they say on the internet, I am not your lawyer (IANYL). The above is clearly a general discussion on the topic of federal terms of service agreements, and it should not be mistaken for legal advice. Heck, I don\u2019t even know what your startup does. Even if I did, I probably wouldn\u2019t understand it (but I\u2019ll take a beta invite if you\u2019ve got one). I hope the above read out from the Collaborate round table was informative, but if you\u2019re a social media provider heading down this route, be sure to retain your own legal counsel before talking to the government.",

        "raw_content": "Beyonce's Director, Choreographers & More Talk 'Single Ladies'\nThis week, Billboard is celebrating the music video with a week's worth of content that looks at the past, present and future of the video, at a time when it seems to be as relevant as ever. Here, we flashback ten years for an extended look at how arguably the most legendary video from the 21st century's greatest music video star came together, and why its legacy endures a decade later.\nOn the St. Louis stop of the 2016 Formation World Tour, Beyonc\u00e9 and her dancers -- including her dance captain, Ashley Everett -- were just about to wave their hands through the final bars of \u201cSingle Ladies (Put A Ring On It)\u201d when the pop star paused. The buoyant bass continued to blast as she vamped, coyly pacing the stage before she turned on her heel and signaled for a gentleman in a white jacket to join her. John Silver, Everett\u2019s boyfriend, trotted into the spotlight and took the floor, where he presented his dumbstruck love with an engagement ring -- one that got an all-too-appropriate cameo during a sequence as familiar to the crowd as the \u201cSingle Ladies\u201d chorus itself. If you like it, then you shoulda put a ring on it: he did, so he did, and Everett flicked her wrist and flashed her newly-minted diamond in the routine she helped create.\nThat such a life-changing moment went down in the middle of a \u201cSingle Ladies\u201d performance is perfect, as the song has proven to be a monumentally transformative force in the lives of Beyonc\u00e9 and those of her closest collaborators. Everett was at Beyonc\u00e9\u2019s side when she filmed the music video for \u201cSingle Ladies\u201d and in the three months leading up to the shoot, when they and choreographers Frank Gatson Jr. and JaQuel Knight worked tirelessly to hone every kick, waist-wind, and lift that would go on to define one of the most iconic dances in pop music history. Read more...\nNo I.D. reflects on 4:44 and how \u201cBam\u201d almost went to Beyonc\u00e9\nIt's been a year since Jay Z released his thirteenth studio album, the critically acclaimed 4:44. In honor of its anniversary, producer No I.D., who picked up a producer of the year Grammy nomination for his work on the album, reflected on how it all came together and which beat on the album almost went to Beyonc\u00e9.\n\u201cFamily Feud\u201d (Featuring Beyonc\u00e9)\nScientifically to me, certain vibrational tones create a reaction, a feeling, an emotion, tension, joy or suspense. So that\u2019s what I look for in music. Whether it\u2019s musicians, sampling \u2014 whatever. And the The Clark Sisters just had this emotion already going. Just like joyous and pain and spiritual and I know part of Bey\u2019s joy in music stems from that type of emotion.\nAnd when I first did the music, of course I wanted her to be a part of the album and when she first heard the track, she was like, \u201cOh, no, no! I\u2019m GETTING on that!\u201d So she really kind of jumped in and did her part. And that song came in at the very end. Maybe about a week before the album came out. I didn\u2019t really have to incorporate her. She\u2019s a producer in her own right. She came in and wove herself right into it. Did an amazing job at completing the song to be honest.

If you're feeling nostalgic, their work on the Game's \"Hate It or Love It\" and Ja Rule's \"New York\" will get your blood flowing. If you're feeling contemporary, look no further than Fat Joe and Remy Ma's anthemic \"All the Way Up,\" which dominated airwaves and peaked at No. 7 on the Billboard Hot 100.\nThey've been locked into the music game for more than a decade\u2014but it still came as a surprise when credits on JAY-Z and Beyonc\u00e9's joint album Everything Is Love revealed the veteran production duo produced three out of nine tracks: \"Summer,\" \"713,\" and \"Black Effect.\" They couldn't sound any more different: \"Summer,\" with its deceptively lazy but thoroughly soulful pace, \"713,\" with driving keys just south of in tune but hard enough that it doesn't matter, and \"Black Effect,\" with its comparatively sparse beat and haunting background vocals. The Carters also released a bonus track, \"Salud!\" which Cool & Dre produced, and Dre laid down vocals for. As its name suggests, it sounds like a toast to victory.\nAs expected, Cool & Dre are floating on Cloud Nine now that their contributions to Everything Is Love have officially reached our ears. In an interview with Complex, the pair talked about their favorite moments creating with JAY and Bey, how easy it was to keep the collaboration a secret, and their status after producing for two of the most revered artists on the planet.\nWhat have the past 48 hours been like for y\u2019all? Read more...\nCool & Dre Detail the Last-Minute Making of 'Everything Is Love'\nWhere were you when the joint Beyonc\u00e9 and JAY-Z album dropped?\nProducer duo Cool & Dre won't forget the answer to the question on everybody's minds this weekend anytime soon. After all, they were right alongside the Carters on tour in London, having literally put finishing touches on Everything Is Love just a few hours before it arrived with no warning on Saturday evening (June 17).\nBut just because the album's release came down to the wire doesn't mean its creation was hasty: Marcello \"Cool\" Valenzo and Andre \"Dre\" Lyon describe the work ethic of hip-hop's perfectionist power couple as nothing short of fastidious -- no drum sound, sample or melody was spared their scrutiny. Below, Cool & Dre take Billboard behind the scenes of their Paris stadium sessions, Beyonc\u00e9's hands-on role in the writing process and just how much music they have left in the vault.\nBeyonc\u00e9 and JAY-Z work in mysterious ways. Were you surprised that the album came out when it did?\nDre: Nah, we knew what was going on. We were in London with them when the album dropped. JAY-Z and Beyonce are Golden State Warriors: they shoot half-court shorts, and it goes in. We spent three weeks in Paris recording, then we went to Cardiff for like a week. We got to London and knocked out two to three tracks 10 days of finishing up the album. An hour and a half before showtime, Bey and Jay were still cutting up vocals. Three hours later it was released to the world. There are no rules when it comes to those two. Read more...\nProducers Cool & Dre on What It's Like to Make a Beyonce and Jay-Z Album\nWhen Beyonc\u00e9 and Jay-Z's album Everything Is Love appeared suddenly on Tidal on Saturday night, a surprising name stood out on the credits list: veteran duo Cool & Dre co-produced three of the nine songs on the album, along with a bonus track. Cool & Dre were ubiquitous on much of the radio in the mid-2000s \u2013 see Ja Rule's \"New York\" and the Game's \"Hate It or Love It,\" for starters \u2013 and enjoyed a recent renaissance as the team behind Fat Joe's \"All the Way Up.\" The pair had never worked on a Jay-Z or Beyonc\u00e9 album before, though. On Everything Is Love, they're responsible for \"Summer,\" the album's soul-sampling opener; the radio-ready, Dr. Dre-interpolating \"713\"; and a pair of triumphant cuts that appear near the end of the LP, \"Black Effect\" and \"Salud!\" Cool & Dre co-produced more tracks than anyone on the album other than Beyonc\u00e9 and Jay-Z themselves.\n\"We always joke with Jay: Working with them two is like working with the Golden State Warriors,\" Dre says. \"We can just dribble the ball up the floor and look like geniuses.\" Rolling Stone spoke with the duo \u2013 Dre is by far the chattier of the two \u2013 about how they ended up on Everything Is Love, the recording sessions in Paris and Cardiff, and how Jay-Z and Beyonc\u00e9's talents pushed them to new creative heights.\nHow did you get involved in the album?\nDre: We've had a relationship with Jay-Z shit, for 15 years. OG Juan introduced me to Jay shortly after \"Hate It or Love It\" was ringing off. He told me back in the day: \"'Hate It or Love It,' I get it, I gotta let that go. But 'New York,' you were supposed to hand deliver that to me. You gotta find a way to get to me.\" We've always had a cordial relationship with him. We never had the opportunity to get on one of his albums. You have to be right beside him. Jay has a thing, he'll text or email: \"Stay close.\" That's advice you have to take literally. He'll record in two weeks and the album is done. Read more...\nBeyonc\u00e9 Live at The Wynn Instrumentals\nBeyonc\u00e9 released a collection of instrumentals from the I Am...

The trio, who rose to commercial acclaim in the late \u201890s and early aughts as Destiny\u2019s Child, had been keeping the surprise under wraps since February, when Bey reached out to her former band members and asked them to join her for a medley of their mega-hits including \u201cSay My Name,\u201d \u201cLose My Breath\u201d and \u201cSoldier.\u201d\n\u201cIt\u2019s just like old girlfriends coming together,\u201d explains the 37-year-old, who last reunited as Destiny\u2019s Child at the 2015 Stellar Awards where they performed her upbeat gospel single \u201cSay Yes.\u201d \u201cIt\u2019s something that when the three of us come together, we all know we feel safe within each other. Like I got your back. We\u2019re good. I really love that about us.\u201d\nSince Destiny\u2019s Child went on hiatus in the wake of their last album, 2004\u2019s Destiny Fulfilled, Williams hasn\u2019t slowed. She\u2019s put out four solo full-lengths including her final release, 2014\u2019s Journey to Freedom (which won\u2019t be her last); starred on stage as leads in Chicago and Aida; launched her own furniture and candle line Believe by Michelle; and, more recently, got engaged to pastor Chad Johnson just prior to her Coachella performance. Still teeming with excitement from the pair of shows, Williams explains how it all came together.\nThere were rumors before Coachella that a Destiny\u2019s Child reunion might happen. How did the conversations begin for this? Did Beyonc\u00e9 call you and just say, \u201cIt\u2019s time?\u201d Read more...\n\u00ab 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... \u00bb",

        "raw_content": "\u00ab Pre-Adolescents Exposed to DDT More Likely To Develop Breast Cancer\nChina Works To Improve Food Safety Image \u00bb\nNew WHO Report Focuses on Children\u2019s Susceptibility to Chemicals\n(Beyond Pesticides, August 8, 2007) For the first time, the World Health Organization (WHO) released a report in July on children\u2019s heightened vulnerability to chemical exposures at different periods of their growth and development. The organization cites over 30% of the global burden of disease in children can be attributed to environmental factors, including pesticides.\nThe report, Principles for Evaluating Health Risks in Children Associated with Exposure to Chemicals, is a new volume of the WHO\u2019s Environmental Health Criteria series. It highlights the fact that for children, the stage of their development when chemical exposure occurs may be just as important as the magnitude of the exposure. In respect to pesticides, the report cites several studies that tie pesticide exposure during key periods of development to neurobehavioral problems, Parkinson\u2019s disease, and immunotoxicity, including respiratory diseases.\n\u201cChildren are not just small adults,\u201d said Dr. Terri Damstra, Ph.D., WHO\u2019s team leader for the Interregional Research Unit, in WHO\u2019s press release. \u201cChildren are especially vulnerable and respond differently from adults when exposed to environmental factors, and this response may differ according to the different periods of development they are going through.\u201d\nAir and water contaminants, pesticides in food, lead in soil, as well many other environmental threats may cause or worsen disease and induce developmental problems. The report notes that children have different susceptibilities during different life stages, referred to as \u201ccritical windows for exposure\u201d or \u201ccritical windows of development,\u201d due to their dynamic growth and developmental processes, as well as physiological, metabolic, and behavioral differences. Exposure can occur:\nIn utero through transplacental transfer of environmental agents from mother to fetus or in nursing infants via breast milk.\nThrough diet \u2013 children consume more food and beverages per kilogram of body weight than do adults, and their dietary patterns are different and often less variable during different developmental stages.\nThrough inhalation and absorption \u2013 children have a higher inhalation rate and a higher body surface area to body weight ratio, which may lead to increased exposures.\nThrough behavior \u2013 children \u2019s normal behaviors, such as crawling on the ground and putting their hands in their mouths, can result in exposures not faced by adults.\nOther physical factors \u2013 children\u2019s metabolic pathways may differ from those of adults, and children have more years of future life and thus more time to develop chronic diseases that take decades to appear and that may be triggered by early environmental exposures.\nAlso, children are often unaware of environmental risks and generally have no voice in decision-making.\nSome examples of health effects resulting from developmental exposures prenatally and at birth include miscarriage, still birth, low birth weight and birth defects; in young children, infant mortality, asthma, neurobehavioral and immune impairment; and in adolescents, precocious or delayed puberty. Evidence also suggests that an increased risk of certain diseases in adults such as cancer, chronic respiratory disease and heart disease can result in part from exposures to certain environmental chemicals during childhood.\nTraditional risk assessment approaches and environmental health policies have focused mainly on adults and adult exposure scenarios, utilizing data from adult humans or adult animals. The report highlights there is a need to expand risk assessment paradigms to evaluate exposures relevant to children from preconception to adolescence, acknowledging each developmental stage.\nThe study, while pointing out risk assessment is flawed and encouraging new and improved research, also states \u201cA lack of full proof for causal associations should not prevent efforts to reduce exposures or implement intervention and prevention strategies.\u201d\nReal world exposure is indeed complicated and makes it difficult to conclusively draw causal associations, especially taking into account synergistic effects, etc., leaving a clear and vital need to exercise the precautionary principle. The easiest and safest solution regardless of risk assessment methods is to avoid chemical use and exposure by using alternative, non- and least-toxic management methods for species that can cause economic and health problems, being more tolerant of species that are solely a nuisance or aesthetically displeasing, and using organic products, especially foods.\nDue to the large amount of time children spend in schools, Beyond Pesticides\u2019 Healthy Schools Project aims to minimize and eliminate the risks posed by pesticides through the adoption of school pest management policies and programs at the local, state, and federal level, thereby creating a healthier learning environment. Central to this effort are activities aimed at public education on pesticide hazards and efficacy of alternatives, and the continued development of model communities that serve as examples.\nTAKE ACTION: Find out what laws your state has enacted to protect children from pesticide exposure. Learn about model policies your state and community can work toward adopting.\nThis entry was posted on Wednesday, August 8th, 2007 at 8:55 am\tand is filed under Children/Schools, Disease/Health Effects, International.

This fact could be generalized for all food products and particularly for vegetables and fruits. These calculations were based on Acceptable Daily Intake and Maximum Residue Limits determined by food codex Committee In Rome. The body tolerance of a 20 Kg child is quiet different than a 80 Kg adult. The other reason for lower tolerance threshold for children as compared to adults is using less diverse food by children. According to my findings during PhD research in Canada at the university of Guelph and also finding by others consuming more diverse food and particularly more diverse vegetables and fruits inducts a higher level more diverse metabolizing detoxifying enzymes in body. These metabolizing enzymes are developed more and more in the liver as age increases. Best regards\nAhmad Mahdavi,\nInsect and environmental toxicologist, Guelph Ontario Canada.",

        "raw_content": "If you have children, then chances are there will come a point in time when they'll ask for a pet. Dogs seem to be the most popular request, which is understandable since these animals can bring years and years of faithful companionship, love, and joy to your family. However, you need to put a lot of thought into a decision of this magnitude because caring for an animal for a lifetime takes a great deal of work and dedication. Are your kids ready for that kind of commitment? And another thing you need to consider is allergies. Childhood allergies are on the rise these days, so learning about dog allergy symptoms before bringing a pet home is a must.\nThere are several different dog allergy symptoms that manifest pretty quickly upon contact or even close proximity to one of these four-legged friends. Humans are most likely to be allergic to the saliva, dander (skin scales or flakes), or even urine of dogs. Some of the dog allergy symptoms to be on the lookout for in your child include difficulty breathing (which somewhat resembles an asthma attack), itchy or watery eyes, coughing, sneezing, or skin rashes. If you see any of these reactions after your child plays near dogs, then you should see a doctor or specialist immediately to confirm the problem.\nWhile talking to the doctor about dog allergy symptoms in your child, you can also ask for advice on how to control the problem. In some instances, particularly when there is only one symptom present or if the reactions are mild, over-the-counter medications such as Benadryl might be enough to keep the problem in check and allow you to still have a family pet. But in other instances, the dog allergy symptoms might be so severe that having a pet won't be a possibility. In that case, it's important to talk to your child and explain what's going on. If possible, you might want to offer an alternative pet choice, such as tropical fish, a lizard, turtle, hamster, or parrot. Your young one might be upset for a while, but will likely come around in good time.\nObviously, it's important to look for dog allergy symptoms before bringing a cuddly little puppy into your home. You can test this out by slowly introducing your child to friendly dogs in the neighborhood (with permission, of course) or at a friend or relative's house to see if there's an allergic reaction or any other kind of discomfort.\nChildren never forget their first pet, their first true best friend. Just make sure your canine companion is memorable for the right reasons. Now that you can spot dog allergy symptoms in kids, hopefully you'll be able to make a more informed decision about bringing an animal into your home.",

        "raw_content": "I have tried to avoid as many spoilers as possible before I saw this film because Abrams's films are best enjoyed with as little knowledge as possible about the film going in. That being said, I will avoid spoilers as much as possible in this review.\nI have been waiting for a sequel to Cloverfield since the film came out, way back in 2008. Add into that fact that one of my favorite actors, John Goodman, was starring in it, I was extremely excited to see this film. I can say as a fan of the original that the film functions well as both a relative to the original and as a film on its own.\nOn one hand, I feel bad for the writers of the original script. The film without the \"Cloverfield\" elements is still great. The tension works incredibly well, and I would hate to see my story changed so much. On the other hand, it was awesome to see the Cloverfield elements come back to life, and to see your script turned into an installment into a series that has a cult following must be cool.\nThe acting in the film was great. John Goodman, John Gallagher Jr., and Mary Elizabeth Winstead all do a great job in their roles. I won't go too much into the qualities that make them good, but I will say that Winstead played an extremely likable protagonist.\nLike I mentioned earlier, I loved the plot. That being said, however, there were a few small issues. I will only say these things generally because again, I want to avoid spoilers. There are a few errors in logic. One event is super predictable once another event happens.\nIn most films of this nature, I feel that too much time is spent on the buildup and too little on the conflict, but I did not feel that way about this film. Overall, I was very pleased with this movie and you should definitely check it out.",

        "raw_content": "What does it really mean to be at home?\nHome, a once simple concept that used to be defined as \u201cthe place one lives permanently\u201d is nowadays a tough one to define.\nFirst of all, there are less and less people \u201cliving permanently\u201d in a place. In fact, people these days tend to move from apartment to apartment, from city to city, from country to country. Sometimes, it\u2019s because of work obligations. Other times, it\u2019s simply because they can. Ask anyone where they are from and more often than not you\u2019ll end up with a geographical resum\u00e9: I was born there, I grew up there, I studied there, I worked there\u2026 So, perhaps the more relevant question nowadays is not \u201cwhere do you come from?\u201d but \u201cwhere is your home?\u201d\nThen again, home can mean different things to different people.\nTo some, home might be a country. To others, home might be their place of residence. And to some, home might not be a physical place at all. But rather, a place where they feel safe and calm. A place where they feel at home. But, what does it mean to feel at home? If home is anywhere you feel safe and calm, then it might not matter where you are, as long as you are with people who make you feel this way. Then again, it need not be people who make you feel this way but your environment and sourroundings. Some people might feel at home in libraries, others by the sea.\nUltimately, it may be more fitting to define home as a feeling rather than as a physical place\nIt might be corny to say, but home might very well be where the heart is. So, next time someone asks you where your home is, don\u2019t think about addresses and residences. What comes to mind? What feelings stir up? What memories? Whatever it is, that\u2019s what you should say. Sure, you might get some weird looks if you blurt out \u201cthe sea is my home\u201d. But that way you\u2019ll know. You\u2019ll know what it means to feel at home.\nTo feel at home wherever you go book a unique Experience with LocalBini!",

The Orlando Apollos earned a 40-6 win over the Atlanta Legends, while the San Antonio Commanders triumphed 15-6 over the San Diego Fleet.\nAAF co-founder Bill Polian talked up the league ahead of its debut, per the Tribune-Review:\n\"We've done this in nine months because of so many great former NFL people who are excited to do it, excited to be in it. We started with nothing, and we [opened] it up on Saturday with eight teams playing what I think will be pretty good football.\n\"That's a credit to the people involved. We could not have done it if we had not had quality former NFL people.\"\nOf course, Week 1 ratings will mean very little to the viability of the league\u2014there were going to be some curious viewers. The XFL famously debuted in 2001 to massive ratings but folded after one season because viewers turned away from the product.\nThe AAF could use some work. Offensive line play was particularly hard to watch, with a few quarterbacks taking hard shots because of missed blocking assignments.\nViewers will get a better idea of the long-term viability of the AAF as the regular season progresses. If the league keeps ratings in this range, it'll be a major success. If things taper off, this could be another one-and-done pro football startup.",

        "raw_content": "Out & About / Stories Shared / What's New\nJohn Jordan believes successful businesses should play an active role in improving the lives of citizens in need. That\u2019s why he decided to put his beliefs into action and founded The John Jordan Foundation (JJF). A significant portion of the proceeds from Jordan Winery fund the foundation, which works to fight the negative effects of poverty. JJF provides financial and technical support to numerous nonprofits, with an emphasis on childhood education, income stability and health services. One charity that the winery\u2019s foundation has chosen to support is the Family Justice Center Sonoma County (FJCSC).\nThe Family Justice Center organization helps victims and survivors of domestic violence, elder abuse, sexual assault and child abuse by providing convenient access to comprehensive support services under one roof. The police department, sheriff\u2019s office, district attorney, health and human services, legal advisors, sexual assault counselors, and other community and religious organizations all have dedicated offices inside the FJC, and the center also raises money for those nonprofit partners.\n\u201cIt is a fantastic model for the families and individuals it serves,\u201d says Lisa Wittke Schaffner, executive director of JJF, who has sat on the FJCSC board since 2014. \u201cIn most communities, victims have to move all around the county to get help from these nonprofits, agencies and public servants. When people are recovering from this type of trauma, they need the inconveniences of transportation and traffic removed so they can focus on healing.\u201d\nAccording to Executive Director Wes Winter, the center serves roughly 1,600 victims each year.\n\u201cWe help people of all ages, from cradle to rocking chair,\u201d he says. \u201cWhen people have been through trauma, and they don\u2019t know where else to turn, they come to us. We protect the vulnerable, stop the violence and restore hope.\u201d\nAs Winter explains it, when a victim comes into the FJCSC for services, he or she initially meets with a Navigator. This person helps the victim determine which services he or she needs to access with the center. Nonprofit partners located at the FJC include the YWCA of Sonoma County, Legal Aid of Sonoma County, Verity (sexual assault support services), the Council on Aging and Catholic Charities, to name a few. The John Jordan Foundation plays two key roles in the delivery of these services. For starters, direct monetary donations allow the FJCSC to fund nonprofit partners so they can continue providing services on-site. According to Winter, the FJCSC could not do its work without support from organizations like The John Jordan Foundation.\n\u201cWe get federal dollars through the Department of Justice\u2019s Office on Violence Against Women and the Office for Victims of Crime, but we need to augment those resources with community funds,\u201d he says. \u201cSupport from John Jordan, his foundation, and Jordan Winery is critical to our survival and success.\u201d\nThe winery\u2019s foundation initially made a three-year commitment of $100,000 to fund the vital Navigator position. JJF continues to support the Family Justice Center cause through annual donations at its \u201cYou Are Not Alone\u201d breakfasts, hosted to raise funds for operating expenses. At the 2018 breakfast, The John Jordan Foundation committed $10,000 to kick off the fundraising event.\nSanta Rosa Police Lieutenant John Cregan, head of criminal investigations.; Lisa Wittke Schaffner of The John Jordan Foundation and Serena Lienau, program analyst for the City of Santa Rosa\u2019s Violence Prevention Partnership at the Family Justice Center\u2019s You Are Not Alone\u201d investment breakfast.\nLearn more at johnjordanfoundation.org.\nOur first blind tasting episode, this month\u2019s Jordan Uncorked video features two chardonnays from the same vintage ...",

        "raw_content": "Updated on March 28, 2012 Categories Data Enhancement, Data Enrichment, Data Integration, Data Management, Data Profiling, Data Quality No Responses\nBy Joseph Vertido\nFor many, the concepts of data integration and data quality are separate and have no commonality. But in reality, when you combine them \u2013 they create a partnership that excels. Where data quality leaves off, data integration begins, and vice versa. A new product \u2013 Contact Zone \u2013 fuses these two concepts together into one revolutionary solution for where data integration and data quality converge.\nData integration tools simplify data migration and data warehousing procedures \u2013 both of which are concerned with the issue of data management, i.e. keeping data organized. Data quality, on the other hand, is concerned primarily with an understanding of the nature, and validity of the contents of the actual data, i.e. keeping data clean. Maintaining an organized database is not the same as keeping it clean \u2013 they are two different approaches to handling data \u2013 but they can be combined, or should they?\nIn essence, data integration allows for the migration of data from a given source to a given destination. Typically, users take advantage of data integration to accomplish data warehousing initiatives \u2013 allowing for easy migration and manipulation of data, which ultimately leads to maximizing the efficiency of business intelligence and analytics.\nHowever, Gartner states that \u201conly 30 percent of business intelligence and data warehousing implementations fully succeed.\u201d Why? The top two reasons for failure are budget constraints and data quality. So, although the architectural constraints of building a data warehouse can be addressed by utilizing data integration tools, it still leaves the problem of poor data quality \u2013 something that most data integration tools handle with mediocrity at best.\nThat\u2019s where Contact Zone comes into play. It\u2019s a data integration tool optimized for data quality, allowing you to shoot two birds with one stone.\nContact Zone connects to virtually any source, overcoming an obstacle our clients frequently encounter when implementing data quality, namely there is such a variety of database format and platforms today that the types of environments and combinations can be overwhelming.\nWhether you have an IBM DB2 database or PostgreSQL, leveraging Contact Zone allows for data integration for almost any form of database format, while making sure that all data is clean, correct, standardized, and valid.\nTags analytics, Business intelligence, Contact Zone, data clean, data integration, data quality, data warehousing, DB2 database, IBM, Melissa Data\nWhere in the End-to-End Should Address Standardization and Correction Happen?",

        "title": "Will more training really fix that problem? \u2013 Mark Gould\u2026",
        "raw_content": "Will more training really fix that problem?\nPosted on 4 March 2015 by Mark Gould\nWhen things go wrong, it is common to see training proposed as the first (and often only) response. I can understand this \u2014 training courses come with an obvious KPI (number of people trained), they can often be cheap if provided internally, and they are readily procured from external suppliers if necessary. Most significantly, if the organisation provides training, the blame for errors (or just poor performance) can be placed more securely on the shoulders of the people doing the job.\nBut, often, people commit errors after having been trained. They perform poorly even when they demonstrably know and understand what they are supposed to do. More training cannot fix this problem. Something else is needed.\nThis is not a new issue. Oddly, though, very few organisations seem to want to grapple with it. The default response, again and again, is to lay on a training course.\nSome years ago, Harold Jarche provided clear guidance to those facing this situation. In a post dating from February 2005, he turns the issue on its head. Rather than concentrating on the manifestation of a problem (people performing poorly), he advises looking more closely at the system itself \u2014 what is the cause of poor performance. The post includes a really clear (and simple) flow chart to help diagnose the appropriate response. Tellingly, it concludes that \u201conly a lack of skills and knowledge warrants training.\u201d\nHarold\u2019s flow chart also contains the reasons why organisations fall back on training unnecessarily often \u2014 the alternatives require at least a small amount of change. Those include changes to the way jobs are done (tweaking processes or removing obstacles) or to performance regimes. Ultimately, there may be repercussions for the individual, but only once organisational changes have been tried and the results tested.\nHarold expands on the need to address barriers to performance in a later blog post (together with a number of resources linked from it). Whenever I hear someone demanding training to fix a problem, my mind turns to Harold\u2019s advice. As long as training is seen as a cure-all, the fundamental problems underlying poor performance are unlikely to be resolved.\nPosted in Change, Learning, People, Training\nPrevious Post What \u2018focus\u2019 really means\nNext Post Understand the question or rush to solutions?\n4 thoughts on \u201cWill more training really fix that problem?\u201d\nDavid Edwards\t 4 March 201512:27\t Reply\nThanks Mark. You\u2019re probably already familiar with the work of John Seddon on systems thinking, and the Vanguard Method. His focus is on public sector, but it addresses some broadly similar themes. https://www.vanguard-method.com/aboutus/\nMark Gould\t 4 March 201512:56\t Reply\nI haven\u2019t delved into Seddon\u2019s work in detail, but I can see that there are clear parallels, especially in relation to diagnosis.

I work as a Trainer in a food manufacturer. Often training is used as a corrective action where a non-conformance has been found by an auditor or a customer. I\u2019m regularly asked to \u201cget sign off\u201d on one thing or another to satisfy an auditor that corrective-action, ie, training, has been carried out, I see this as papering over cracks, usually without addressing all the factors that contributed to the non-conformance.

As I have pointed out before, this approach is rarely successful. On further reflection, I think a better response needs to be [\u2026]",

Miller February 14, 2009 Comments Off on Blu-ray Review: Friday the 13th \u2013 Uncut (1980) 19 Views\nAfter the success of John Carpenter\u2019s Halloween, producer/director Sean Cunningham decided to rip it off, according to screenwriter Victor Miller. In doing so, they, along with make-up artist Tom Savini, created a pop culture sensation that returned more than 70 times its budget at the box office. Unknowingly, they were starting a horror movie franchise that would create more sequels and earn more money than its inspiration.\nFriday the 13th opens in 1958 at Camp Crystal Lake in New Jersey. A young couple of counselors sneak off to have sex in an attic and are killed. We flash-forward a couple of decades to present day, Friday, June 13, and meet Annie, whose vocals all sound dubbed. She is heading to Camp Crystal Lake, which is being re-opened, to work as a cook. She meets some townsfolk who warn her the camp is haunted. A truck driver informs her a young boy drowned and a young couple was murdered.\nOther counselors are arriving and work to help Steve, the new owner, spruce up the place. He has some errands to run and leaves the camp in his truck. Annie gets picked up hitchhiking, but we never see the driver. When they pass the camp, Annie realizes she is in trouble. She jumps out of the car and is chased into the woods, but there\u2019s no escape and she gets her throat slit.\nBack at the camp, the counselors do what comes natural to young people when their supervisor is away: they soak up some sun, get high, and have sex. As horror fans know, this means, to quote Thunderdome\u2019s Dr. Dealgood, \u201cdyin\u2019 time\u2019s here.\u201d No doubt to the delight of many male viewers, Marcie runs around in a tight, pink top and no bra, so it\u2019s natural for her to sneak off with Jack (Kevin Bacon). You expect them to get killed during sex, but it is revealed Ned is dead in the bunk above. It\u2019s a good twist on expectations and creates suspense. As the movie progresses, the characters get isolated and start dropping like flies. Alice is the last person standing and eventually battles with the killer. I was surprised to learn the killer\u2019s identity and was impressed that it was cleverer than I expected.\nAlbeit a bit dopey and amateurish, Friday the 13th is a good time for those who like chills and thrills and is an undeniable landmark in the history of cinema. Along with Halloween, Hitchcock\u2019s Psycho is also an influence in its music and story, and there\u2019s a nod to Carrie at the end. The packaging states, \u201cThis unrated version contains 10 seconds of footage different from the original R-rated version.\u201d I don\u2019t know what has been added, but I believe the movie would still get no worse than an R in this condition. Nearly 30 years later, it might be too slow and not gory enough for modern movie watchers.\nThe Blu-ray has been released to coincide with the remake, but not much was done to prepare the movie for high definition, which is presented in 1080p with an aspect ratio of 1.85:1. There\u2019s a lot of grain throughout, especially in dimly lit scenes and during a freeze frame that zooms in on the image. The colors are muted, the blacks can barely be called that, and the details aren\u2019t in sharp focus. On the plus side, the picture looks clean and free of dirt and defect.\nIn regards to the audio, the Dolby TrueHD 5.1 didn\u2019t offer much. The music sounds like it\u2019s been remixed and is too loud, which contrasts with the low levels for the dialogue. The front speakers do almost all the work as the surround offers very little beyond faint ambiance. I\u2019d recommend going with the Dolby Digital Mono as it creates a more authentic experience.\nThere are a lot of special features for F13 fans. Peter Bracke, author of Crystal Lake Memories, and interview clips with cast and crew are edited together to create the commentary track, which sounds like it was recorded close to the 20th anniversary of the movie.\nA number of special features are presented in HD. The highlight is the film\u2019s original trailer. It is very evocative as the narrator counts down the bodies. A reunion of cast and crew from Kentucky\u2019s 2008 \u201cScare Fest\u201d contains anecdotes about the movie and lets fans who haven\u2019t gotten a life ask questions. What looks to have been recorded at the same time is \u201cFresh Cuts: New Tales from Friday the 13th.\u201d Composer Harry Manfriedi claims the \u201cchi chi chi\u201d sound on the soundtrack is actually \u201cki ki ki\u201d to represent \u201ckill,\u201d but I don\u2019t hear it. The movie clips used here are letterboxed, which begs the question why they aren\u2019t on main feature. \u201cThe Man Behind the Legacy\u201d is an interview shot at Cunningham\u2019s home and he\u2019s done well for himself. Something called \u201cLost Tales from Camp Blood Pt 1\u201d is some vignette where Jason kills some a couple in their home. It\u2019s terrible and utterly pointless.\nPresented in standard definition and likely from a previous DVD release is \u201cThe Friday the 13th Chronicles,\u201d which covers some of the same ground from other extras, and \u201cSecrets Galore Behind the Gore.\u201d It\u2019s comical that they always inform the viewer that the clips shown are from Friday the 13th. They may have been from a larger feature about the franchise.\nConsidering the better technical capabilities don\u2019t offer much to the presentation, I would recommend buying the new DVD version instead of the Blu-ray. If it\u2019s already in your collection, it\u2019s not worth a double dip unless your F13 devotion is high and you have to own the new extras.\nTags Blu-ray Cult Video",

        "raw_content": "Tracking Network Data Spotlight: Drought\nYou don\u2019t have to live in a desert to experience drought. Did you know that 48 states experienced drought in 2016? Dry periods of below-average rainfall are experienced throughout the United States: they can be relatively short or last years, and can cover both large and small areas.\nExtended dry periods have become more frequent in parts of the United States during the past several decades. This can affect people\u2019s health in a number of ways. CDC\u2019s Environmental Public Health Tracking Network (Tracking Network) allows users to track the duration and severity of drought over time throughout the country. This information can inform a wide variety of environmental and public health efforts related to drought.\nDrought and Health\nDrought can lead to other environmental health problems like reduced quantity and quality of drinking water and poorer air quality. These conditions can affect health by increasing the risks of infectious, chronic, and vector-borne diseases. Lower water levels can also result in diminished sanitation and hygiene and increased risk of injury from recreational swimming and boating in shallow water. Read more about drought and health.\nCommunities are affected by drought differently depending on a number of factors. These include drought severity, geographical location, existing health and sanitation infrastructure, and available resources to alleviate drought-related health effects. Certain populations, such as the elderly and farmers whose livelihoods depend on water, can also be more vulnerable to the effects of drought.\nTracking Drought\nThe Tracking Network uses data from two widely used drought indices, the United States Drought Monitor (USDM) and the Standardized Precipitation Evapotranspiration Index (SPEI), to track drought trends in the United States. The USDM characterizes drought weekly based on a number of environmental inputs and observations from experts around the country. The SPEI is calculated monthly based on rainfall and temperature data.\nWould you like to learn more about the occurrence of drought in your state? You can search for drought data on the Tracking Network\u2019s Data Explorer by selecting weekly or monthly indicators. You can view the number of weeks or months of drought in a given year, compare years, and even look at data seasonally or by different levels of drought severity. You can view the maximum number of consecutive weeks or months of drought over a five-year period to get a sense of the duration of drought in a particular area. The Data Explorer\u2019s dual map feature also allows you to look at side-by-side views of drought and health outcome data in a particular area. Weekly data are available from 2000-2016 and include Alaska and Hawaii, while monthly data for the contiguous United States only are available from 1979-2016.\nNumber of weeks in severe drought or worse, 2012-2016\nAre you a researcher, or would you prefer to dig into the raw drought data yourself? The Tracking Network\u2019s got you covered! The Tracking Network offers raw data from four drought indices, including the USDM and SPEI, available for direct download. You can access county-level SPEI data from 1895-2016, while county level USDM, Palmer Drought Severity Index, and Standard Precipitation Index data are available from 2000-2016.\nAlthough many factors influence how drought will affect a community, drought trend data and other related information can be used to prepare for and prevent potential negative health effects. The Tracking Network provides several ways for health professionals, policy makers, researchers, and community members to access drought data.\nThe Data Explorer and direct download offerings ensure that access to drought data will never dry up!\nTweet this: \u201cCDC\u2019s Environmental Public Health Tracking Network allows uswers to track the duration and severity of drought over time throughout the country.

        "raw_content": "Low voter turnout is clearly a problem, but a much greater worry is the growing inequality of that turnout\nThe UK is very much a \u2018divided democracy\u2019, with electoral participation among the young and the poor declining dramatically. This political estrangement will not be curtailed by quick fixes or technological solutions. We should be looking to adopt a fundamentally deeper, richer and more creative approach to democratic engagement. In particular, we need a long-term plan for fostering political literacy, writes Matthew Flinders.\nHands up if you\u2019ve heard of National Voter Registration Day? And in the somewhat unlikely event that you have, did you realise that it took place last month?\nIf this momentous milestone passed you by, you\u2019re not alone. Whatever 5 February means to the people of the United Kingdom, it\u2019s safe to assume that electoral participation doesn\u2019t figure prominently. This is not a surprise; it reflects a deep-seated public disengagement from politics, as indicated by the fact that only two thirds of eligible voters in the 2010 general election actually voted. Throughout the twentieth century, general election turnouts almost always exceeded 70%, but that\u2019s a level of participation that has not been seen since 1997. Incidentally, the highest turnout since 1900 was 86.8% in January 1910, though only rate-paying men over the age of 21 could vote.\nLow voter turnout is clearly a problem, but arguably a much greater worry is the growing inequality of that turnout. As a recent report from the Institute for Public Policy Research makes clear, the United Kingdom is very much a \u2018divided democracy\u2019, with electoral participation among the young and the poor declining dramatically. In the 1987 general election, for example, the turnout rate for the poorest income group was 4% lower than for the wealthiest. By 2010 the gap had grown to a staggering 23 points. A similar pattern is observable in relation to age groups. In 1970 there was an 18-point gap in turnout rates between 18\u201324-year-olds and those aged over 65; by 2005 this gap had more than doubled to over 40 points, before narrowing slightly to 32 points in 2010. \u201dIf we focus on participation within these age-groups,\u201d the IPPR report concludes \u201cwe can see that at the 2010 general election the turnout rate for a typical 70-year-old was 36 percentage points higher than that of a typical 20-year-old.\u201d\nIf this isn\u2019t bad enough there is little evidence that young people will simply start voting as they get older. On the contrary, the IPPR\u2019s research suggests that \u201cyounger people today are less likely than previous generations to develop the habit of voting as they move into middle age.\u201d These trends mean that politicians tend to address themselves to the older and richer sections of society \u2013 the people, in other words, that are most likely to vote. This, in turn, reinforces the views of the young and the poor that politicians don\u2019t care about them. And that, naturally, leads to even greater political estrangement.\nSo what\u2019s the solution? How do we re-establish a connection between ordinary people and politicians? In particular, how do we persuade the young and the poor that the political system really does have something to offer them?\n(Credit: NFSphoto, via iStockphoto)\nThe answers lie not in quick fixes or technological solutions \u2013 such as the introduction of compulsory voting, changing the ballot paper or promoting \u2018digital democracy\u2019 \u2013 but in adopting a fundamentally deeper, richer and more creative approach to democratic engagement. People will only vote \u2013 be they young or old, rich or poor \u2013 when they understand why democratic politics matters and what it can deliver. Therefore, to increase electoral participation we must focus on promoting the public understanding of politics from all perspectives (conservative, traditional, radical, etc.) in a way that demonstrates that individual responses to collective social challenges are rarely likely to be effective. It\u2019s this deeper understanding, this notion of political literacy promoted by Sir Bernard Crick and defined as \u2018a compound of knowledge, skills and attitudes\u2019 that citizens can use to navigate the complex social and political choices that face us all. Political literacy can be seen as a basic social requirement that empowers people to become politically aware, effective, and engaged while also being respectful of differences of opinion or belief.\nIn this regard, the message from survey after survey is a dismal one. Large sections of the British public appear to know very little about the political system. Even relatively basic questions such as \u201cWhat do MPs do?\u201d or \u201cWhat\u2019s the difference between Parliament and the Executive?\u201d tend to elicit a mixture of mild embarrassment and complete bafflement.\nGiven that levels of political literacy are so low, it\u2019s little surprise that many people choose not to vote. They\u2019re unaware of the very real benefits the political system delivers for them (clean water, social protection, healthcare, education, etc.) and they no longer believe that they can become the engine of real social change. And yet they can. Worse, by opting out of elections they risk diminishing their representation as politicians focus their messages on the groups that do vote. Young people are constantly reminded that to be \u201cuneducated\u201d \u2013 let alone innumerate or illiterate \u2013 is to risk deprivation and vulnerability, but in many ways to be politically illiterate brings with it exactly the same risks. Moreover, the impact of declining political literacy isn\u2019t only felt at the individual level. With so many people in society alienated from politics, democracy itself is weakened\nSuch arguments are by no means abstract concerns. On 7 May 2015, a General Election will be held on the basis of individual voter registration rather than the previous system of household voter registration. Research suggests that although this transition is likely to increase electoral security it may also result in a considerable decline in levels of electoral participation amongst \u2013 yes, you\u2019ve\u2019 guessed it \u2013 the young and the poor. This is not a reason to turn back from individual registration but it is a reason to step-back and acknowledge that if we\u2019re really serious about healing a divided democracy, then we need to focus on promoting engaged citizenship through different channels and processes. We need to take some risks and stir things up, but most of all we need a long-term plan for fostering political literacy.\nNote: This article originally appeared on the OUP blog gives the views of the author, and not the position of the British Politics and Policy blog, nor of the London School of Economics.

This book was very revolutionary for its time.\nI would read, Our Bodies, Ourselves. It is a highly significant book in several ways and almost certainly would generate a spirited and important discussion.\nWow, so many great choices!\nIf I had to pick just one, It would be: Common Sense. More people need to read Tom Paine. It\u2019s a wonderfully clearly written essay and explains the need for a new government in the then Colonies.",

        "title": "More Than Hardware: Challenges in Education Technology in Africa - Blum Center",
        "raw_content": "In 2012, the Inter-American Development Bank concluded that children in Peru receiving computers from the American nonprofit One Laptop per Child did not show improvements in math or reading and that access to the laptop did not significantly increase motivation to learn. This is the kind of survey result that makes technology for development professionals worry\u2014especially since global education technology investments were estimated at $1.1 billion in 2012. In Rwanda alone, 203,000 laptops have been distributed to primary school students through the One Laptop per Child project.\nOn April 10, the Blum Center hosted a panel discussion on the private sector\u2019s changing and often challenging role in education transformation in Africa. The panel was organized and moderated by James Bernard, senior director of global strategic partnerships for the Education Group at Microsoft and a Spring 2015 Development Impact Lab (DIL) visiting fellow. The panel included John Galvin, vice president of education at Intel; Steve Duggan, director of education partnerships at Microsoft; Sara Kingsley, research consultant at the Microsoft Technology and Policy Group; and Alex Cho, vice president and general manager of commercial systems at HP.\nFirst, all of the panelists emphasized that there has been a shift in the past five years away from providing countries with laptops or devices toward context-specific solutions focusing on educational outcomes.\n\u201cThe focus has moved from the device to thinking about the appropriate solution and service that will provide outcomes,\u201d said Duggan of Microsoft. \u201cSo you can think of the technology not as the end-all, but as a device that delivers a service.\u201d\nIndeed, to address the shortcomings of device-only solutions, computer hardware companies are including software development and teacher and IT training into their hardware deployment projects in African and other developing countries. In 2012, for example, Microsoft invested $250 million through its Partners in Learning Project to train teachers in IT and technology subjects.\nThe panelists explained that one of the biggest challenges in the education technology field has been implementing curricula when government officials are more interested in the quantity of devices sent to students. Another challenge is the lack of reliable Internet connectivity in many African regions, a problem that moved Microsoft, Intel, and HP to place its educational content on USB devices with a 3G connection, so that teachers can provide an alternative way to download information. Africa\u2019s connectivity is changing, however, said Kingsley, who works on affordable connectivity projects for Microsoft in Africa. He reminded the panel that many Internet Service Providers and governments are harnessing the power of solar energy throughout the continent.\nWhile \u201cadaptive learning,\u201d which allows teachers and students to learn at their own pace through online resources, has produced positive results, the role of technology in the classroom remains unclear. The panelists attributed this ambiguity to the lack of data and rigorous assessment.\nAlex Cho from HP said that the collection of real-time data from student and teacher interactions with devices and software along with on-the-ground qualitative data allows developers to track where success and failure is occurring, with the potential of creating predictive data. According to Duggan, the fact that only one third of countries have met the UN\u2019s 2015 Millennium Development Goals on education highlights technology\u2019s potential to offer more solutions.\nThe educational ecosystem in sub-Saharan Africa is complicated by resource challenges. A recent UNESCO report estimated that by 2030 2.5 million teachers will be needed to meet growing secondary school enrollment. Teachers and human interaction will always be essential to learning, Bernard assured, but technological innovations can serve as a guide to navigate a landscape lacking quality teachers.\n\u201cWe need to look at technology from the framework where it is a compliment, not a replacement, to education in places where resources are running short,\u201d Kingsley said.\nBy Sara Tsai The UC system is often lauded for its ability to cultivate socioeconomic mobility. A 2015 New York Times study placed UC campuses",

        "title": "DOL Releases Final Rule Expanding Association Health Plans - Bolton & Company",
        "raw_content": "Association Health Plans (AHPs) are an interesting tool to deliver benefits to employers, and the United States Department of Labor (DOL) has finalized regulations which will make it much easier for companies to band together to purchase health insurance. This is especially impactful to small employers as the final rule applies \u201clarge group\u201d coverage rules to small groups within an AHP.\nFully-insured AHPs may be established under the final rules starting September 1, 2018. It\u2019s important to note that AHPs are regulated under State rules, and it remains to be seen whether some of the flexibility gained under the final rule will stand up against State adoptions to minimize the loosened regulations.\nThe following information from Benefit Advisors Network provides more information on this topic:\nWe will expand upon these issues in future alerts. In the meantime, highlights of the final rule are as follows:\nA \u201csubstantial business purpose\u201d is considered to exist if the group would be a viable entity in the absence of sponsoring an employee benefit plan.\nWhether \u201ccontrol\u201d exists is a facts and circumstances determination. The DOL considers the following factors to be particularly relevant for this analysis: (1) whether employer members regularly nominate and elect the governing body of the association and the plan; (2) whether employer members have authority to remove a member of the governing body with or without cause; and (3) whether employer members that participate in the plan have the authority and opportunity to approve or veto decisions which relate to the formation, design, amendment, and termination of the plan, for example, material amendments to the plan, including changes in coverage, benefits, and premiums.\nThe AHP must limit enrollment to current employees (and their beneficiaries, such as spouses and children), or former employees of a current employer member who became eligible for coverage when the former employee was an employee of the employer.\nAn AHP may not experience-rate each employer member based on the health status of its employees; however, an AHP may charge different premiums as long as they\u2019re not based on health factors. For example, employees of participating employers may be charged different premiums based on their industry subsector or occupation (e.g., cashier, stockers, and sales associates) or full-time vs. part-time status.\nThe final rule reduces the requirement for working owners. To be eligible to participate they must work an average of 20 hours per week or 80 hours per month (the proposed rule required an average of 30 hours per week or 120 hours per month).\nAHPs are subject to the disclosure requirements of Title I of ERISA (e.g., summary plan descriptions, summary of material modifications, etc.) and Summary of Benefits and Coverage (SBC) requirements.\nThe rule does not address the liability of the respective parties to the AHP for violations of the nondiscrimination provisions in the rule, general ERISA reporting and disclosure requirements and fiduciary rules, Code section 4980H (employer mandate) and the related Code sections 6055 and 6056 reporting requirements, Form W-2 reporting, COBRA compliance, and \u201call of the other responsibilities that come with the maintenance of a single large employer plan.\u201d These Code provisions are under the jurisdiction of the IRS and Treasury and the rule refers stakeholders to the relevant Code sections and guidance thereunder.\nThe release of final regulations expanding the availability of AHPs will come as welcome relief to small employers, who have been subject to strict insurance mandates and market reforms under the Affordable Care Act.\nThe final rule is intended to level the playing field and allows small employers to band together by common geography or industry to purchase \u201clarge group\u201d insurance policies, which are subject to fewer ACA mandates and have greater flexibility in plan design than small group plans, which generally must offer coverage in all ten essential health benefit categories. However, States will continue to be able to regulate AHPs, so it remains to be seen whether some of the flexibility gained under the final rule will be curtailed by the adoption of minimum benefit standards by States.\nThe rule also enables AHPs to self-insure, which provides an additional avenue for cost-savings by participating employers. While the impact on the ACA Marketplaces and the individual and group insurance markets is unclear and likely will not be felt immediately, opponents of the rule have raised concerns ranging from destabilization of the individual and small group markets (due to AHPs being marketed toward younger, heathier individuals) to consumer protection issues, including insolvency and fraud.\nEmployers should work closely with qualified ERISA counsel and their trusted advisors when evaluating whether to join an AHP and to ensure that compliance obligations are being",

        "title": "Brainwave Entrainment Benefits | Brainwave Entrainment Side Effects |",
        "raw_content": "What\u2019s Brainwave Entrainment Technology all about?\nStart here if you are just beginning to explore this area of personal development, or if you are looking for a trustworthy source and you wish to learn more about the many benefits of Brainwave Entrainment Technology.\nOver the past few years, brainwave entrainment products have made a great rise in popularity, reaching more people than ever before and peaking their interest with the many benefits ensured. We now have a continually expanding pool of options to choose from, as well as more information and scientific research on the subject than in the past. Brainwave Entrainment audios, and the products being made with this technology are literally changing the game in the personal development field, and have become one of the largest catalysts in our recent evolution as a human race. In fact, these audios may be one of the main contributing factors in unlocking the potential to tap into the untouched 98% of our brains that we are currently not using.\nHow did it all start? A short history of Brainwave Entrainment\nBrainwave Entrainment audio technology was first developed and introduced to the public decades ago by Robert Monroe, through the Monroe Institute. This organization used their brainwave entrainment audios as a tool to induce people into specifically directed out of body experiences as well as train remote viewers. Since then the crafting of brainwave entrainment audios has become a sophisticated art. These audios are now created and used by a number of businesses and individuals for a variety of purposes, most of which having to do with personal development and self-help.\nThe main gist of brainwave entrainment audios, without getting too technical here, is that they effortlessly guide one\u2019s brain (when listened to with stereo headphones) into a specifically targeted state, as designated by the creator of the audio. They are able to alter your brainwave states through the use of specific audio frequencies, and specific beats-the most common of which being binaural beats (though there are other types of beats being used as well). When one frequency is played into one ear- let\u2019s say 1115 Hz- and a slightly different frequency is played into the other-say 1125 Hz- the brain is forced to reconcile the two, and creates its own \u201cphantom\u201d frequency that is the difference between the two- in this case 10 Hz. Not only does this allow the brain to be led into specific brainwave states, but it also allows the two hemispheres of the brain to synchronize with each other, stimulating and promoting whole-brain functioning.\nThe most common brainwaves that brainwave entrainment audios are used to induce are alpha, theta, and delta. Over the past ten years or so, brainwave entrainment creators have also learned to induce gamma waves, as well as combinations of sub dominant and dominant combinations (ie: dominant alpha waves with sub dominant theta patterns).\nBrainwave Entrainment Today \u2013 Its Numerous Benefits and Uses\nThe implications and potential benefits of brainwave entrainment technology are staggering, and a seemingly infinite amount of doors have been opened to be explored. This technology is highly useful in the self-help/personal development field in a variety of ways. It can also be used to enhance NLP and hypnosis recordings to make the mind more receptive to suggestion. Brainwave entrainment can be applied to help people fall asleep, to improve focus and concentration, or to relax. Recent and modern experiments are also being held to see if brainwave entrainment may help to treat and/or cure mental \u201cdisorders\u201d such as depression or ADD. One of the most common and popular uses of brainwave entrainment is to effortlessly induce deep meditative states.\nSumming it all up, here is a list of benefits from using brainwave entrainment technology, which surely is long and promising:\nWhole-brain functioning\nGreater ability to handle stress\nEffortless and deep meditation\nImproved receptivity to affirmations and hypnosis\nMore powerful visualizations\nRelease of positive endorphins and neurochemicals\nStimulation of HGH and other anti-aging hormones\nIncreased spiritual awareness and access into the subconcious\nImprovement of short-term and long-term memory\nDevelopment of new neural pathways in the brain\nIncreased capacity for empathy and compassion\nImprovement in symptoms of mental disorders (ADD/ADHD/Autism/etc.)\nMastery over one\u2019s emotional states and internal dialogue\nImprovement in sleep patterns/better night\u2019s rest\nEnhanced ability to manifest goals and use the law of attraction\nAccess into the various brainwave states at the touch of a button\nResetting of the brain\u2019s sodium/potassium ratio\nWhat is the best way to introduce brainwave entrainment technology in your life? How do you reap all these benefits?\nThe question is not really whether or not you will benefit from using Brainwave Entrainment, but is more about what specific benefits you would like to focus on, and which product will be best for you in maximizing these benefits.\nFor example, if your goal is to enhance your meditations, increase your spiritual awareness, and reap the benefits of deep meditation in your life, I would recommend a program like The Missing Link.\nTo further illustrate how brainwave entrainment enhances your meditation practice, here is an explanation. When an experienced and advanced meditator is hooked into equipment that reads their brainwave patterns, it is most common for their brain to move from whatever state they are in before they meditate (normally a Beta or higher Alpha state) slowly down into a deep Theta rhythm. Very advanced meditators are able to bring their brain all the way into a Delta state, which is most normally where deep sleep occurs. To be able to bring the brain into these deep brainwave states through the process of meditation can take years of meditative practice, and lots of discipline.\nBrainwave Entrainment audios remove the need to have years of meditative practice under your belt to receive the benefits of these deeper brainwave states. Now all that is needed is a pair of stereo headphones, and some time to sit comfortably and close your eyes.\nIf you were looking to specifically enhance your professional life, your relationships with others, your powers of persuasion, and your ability to consistently set and achieve goals, I would recommend our Effortless Overachiever Bundle.\nIf you were looking to specifically maximize the law of attraction and enhance your personal belief patterns, I would point you to the Sleep Well Live Well audio, as it uses subliminal and liminal affirmations to help reprogram the mind and belief systems.\nAnd if you were looking to play around with more specific benefits and uses with brainwave entrainment audios like protecting yourself from electromagnetic energy, stimulating your pineal gland, treating ADD and ADHD, etc., I would point you in the direction of MindPowerMp3.com.\nSo you see, it\u2019s all about where your personal journey is taking you, and what direction of evolution you are wanting to explore. The purpose of this site is to assist you in making an educated decision about what product is right for you, and to ensure that you are only recommended a high-quality product that will provide you with powerful and noticeable results. The great news is that many of the benefits of using Brainwave Entrainment (improved sleep patterns, release of anti-aging hormones, whole-brain functioning, etc.) are simply side-effects of using any type of brainwave entrainment audio.\nI want you to know that I only post reviews and recommendations for products that have been personally tested by myself. I have been in this game for more than seven years, and know that there are a lot of products out there in varying degrees of quality. I have set up this page with the goal of saving you both time and money in exploring this realm, so you can get straight into the game of bringing yourself to that next level in your own personal development.\nWhen making an educated decision on what product is best for you, it is important to have a general understanding of how the technology works, and what the benefits are of visiting the specific brainwave states.

        "raw_content": "Cab wars\nUber to pump in $500 million in India, to tackle rival Ola head on\nInvestment to happen by June 2016Aditi Shrivastava | ET Bureau | March 28, 2016, 09:27 IST\nRide-hailing app Uber plans to invest $500 million (Rs 3,300 crore) in India by June \u2014 or Rs 1,000 crore a month, on average \u2014 as it challenges Ola for leadership in its third-biggest market, two people aware of the matter said.\nJust nine months ago, the world\u2019s most valuable startup committed to invest $1 billion in India, a market the company\u2019s founder Travis Kalanick has said could surpass either the US or China for Uber.\n\"We are doubling down our resources for India,\" said a senior executive at Uber while requesting anonymity.\nThe person added that the company has not yet utilised all the cash from the first $1-billion commitment.\n\"The plan is to spend each dollar more efficiently than our competitors, and invest in building a team, technology solutions that are India-focussed, and quality,\" the senior Uber executive said.\nUber and Ola are engaged in fierce competition, sometimes bad-tempered, to dominate in India. Uber\u2019s business head for Asia, Eric Alexander, said some 10 days ago that his company would overtake Ola for market leadership in a month. The Indian company, which counts Japan\u2019s SoftBank as its biggest investor, responded by claiming that its newly launched service called 'Micro' alone would overtake Uber, which is estimated to be valued at $62.5 billion, within a month in India.\nAccording to industry experts and investors ET spoke with, Ola has a 15-20% lead on Uber. \"However, Uber has eaten into Ola\u2019s market share in top cities, which Ola is now vigorously defending,\" said an investor in Ola.\nBoth Ola and Uber get more than 70% of their revenue from Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Chennai, Delhi-National Capital Region and Kolkata. Ola has raised a total of about $1.2 billion so far, including $500 million in November from investors including China\u2019s biggest taxi aggregator Didi Kuaidi that is building a global alliance against Uber. At the time, Ola was valued at $5 billion.\nPitched battles\nUber and Ola are also fighting pitched battles in the Delhi High Court. The Bengaluru-based company has accused Uber of violating rules and operating cabs that use diesel as fuel. Uber has denied the charge. For its part, the US company has sued Ola, accusing it of using a range of dirty tricks, including creating fake bookings. Ola has denied the allegation.\nUber will use the cash to invest in government collaborations, business partnerships, strengthen its driver supply initiatives, marketing and expansion, sources said.\n\"(The additional investment in India) is an interesting move as it will again start the regime of heavy discounts for commuters and incentives for drivers,\" said Jaspal Singh, founder of transportation advisory Valoriser Consultants.\nAccording to a Goldman Sachs report titled 'India Rising Internet\u2019, the domestic online car rental market is expected to reach $1.4 billion by 2030. Ola is restructuring its business to focus on its core taxi business.\nEarlier this month, ET reported that Ola would channelise all its investments primarily into its taxi business in eight major cities where it competes directly with Uber, with an increased focus on its low-cost taxis and ride-sharing services.\nOver the past year, Uber has expanded to 26 cities, signed multiple pacts with state governments and government bodies, including the government of Telangana and the Automotive Skills Development Council, to create thousands of jobs and entrepreneurship opportunities, train and certify individuals, and make significant investments to support innovation and development.\nTags : Business of Brands, Uber, Travis Kalanick, Softbank, Ola, Entrepreneurship, Cab wars",

        "raw_content": "Posted Mon, June 29th 2015 / Breathalyser Blog, Latest News / No comments\nIn 1988, 13.6% of urine tests were found to contain traces of drugs; that number then steadily declined, bottoming out at 3.5% in 2012. However, the past two years have seen an uptick in that percentage with 3.7% in 2013 and 3.9% in 2014. The 2014 percentage represents an 11.4% increase from 2012.\nTwo drugs have seen a large increase in their positive test rates over the last 4 years. Marijuana, which \u201caccounts for nearly half of all positive tests\u201d according to the Wall Street Journal article, and amphetamines, have both seen a rise in their percentage of positive tests. Other drug categories either remained unchanged, decreased, or did not increase significantly. The increase in positive tests for marijuana can be seen as a response to the general public\u2019s rapidly shifting opinion on marijuana. While marijuana remains illegal at the federal level, state laws and regulations are changing so quickly that it can be difficult to stay up-to-date on where marijuana is legal, where it has been approved for medicinal use, decriminalized, or still remains illegal. While marijuana is in various stages of legal transition on a state-by-state basis, it is still regarded as a Schedule 1 drug by the federal government. Schedule 1 drugs are not considered legitimate for medical use.\nEmployers that conduct drug screening of applicants or other types of workplace drug testing should monitor any changes in state law that might occur as a result of the 2016 election process. Reviewing your current drug policies will ensure that you are up-to-date on current state laws, and are confident that your policy accurately reflects your organization\u2019s position on a drug-free workplace.\nThe growth in positive tests for amphetamines raises another interesting facet of administering a drug testing program. The number of positive tests for amphetamines nearly doubled from 2008 to 2014 according to the Wall Street Journal. This is in large part due to the increased prescribing of amphetamines for such disorders as Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). If a drug test is \u201cpositive\u201d for amphetamines, a physician who is a certified Medical Review Officer (MRO) will request documentation of a legitimate prescription. Once a prescription for amphetamines has been verified, the test is reported by the MRO to the company as being \u201cnegative\u201d.\nThe Wall Street Journal found \u201cindependent studies show 65% to 80% of positive tests for legal drugs are ultimately disregarded for that reason.\u201d If the complexities of running a drug & alcohol testing program cause stress, and take up a significant amount of time for your organization, consider partnering with an organization that can seamlessly handle all the intricacies of a complex drug & alcohol testing program. For example, if your organization does not currently use a pre-placement drug and alcohol testing program, consider implementing one. Or, if you do currently screen applicants, consider expanding the scope of your program to include random testing, post-accident testing, reasonable suspicion, or even expanding the drug panel that you currently use to include more drugs of abuse. Remember that even legitimate use of certain prescription medications can have implications for performing \u201csafety sensitive\u201d job functions, and should be considered as part of a company\u2019s overall approach to employee drug and alcohol use.\nSource: www.allonehealth.com",

        "raw_content": "Bridge Vibration: Can a bridge bounce?\nDelaware River Bridge at Lackawaxen PA- one of the first suspension bridges built by John Roebling and Russell Lord. In use since 1849 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Photos courtesy of HABS HAER\nTo start off this terminology page under the word Bridge Vibration, there is a story that is connected with this bridge. The Lackawaxen Suspension Bridge was built in 1849 by Russell Lord and John Roebling and spans the Delaware River bordering Pennsylvania and New Jersey. Together with the suspension bridge in Nuremberg (Germany), they are the only bridges of its kind in the world where the roadway is supported by odd-numbered towers. This in addition to the fact that they were both built before 1870. But the story goes where teenagers in the 1920s and 30s would try and race their cars across the bridge, then stop abruptly in the middle, creating a wave of vibration that would shake the wooden planking of the 300 foot structure! A dangerous stunt for it could lead to the bridge to collapse, but in those days, a carefree attitude towards bridges did not include liability issues like we have nowadays.\nAnd this is where we look at the topic of Bridge Vibration. Can a bridge vibrate and if so, to what extent can it vibrate in order to make it safe? This is in connection with some discussion about bridge vibration and how unsafe it is. Three bridges- two in Battleboro, New Hampshire and one bridge at Sylvan Island in the Quad Cities were the primary focus of this issue. City officials in the Moline (IL) portion of the Quad Cities feared that bridge vibration would mean that the potential for bridge collapse was there and subsequentially closed the bridge to all traffic this past May. The 1911 Pratt through truss structure, once serving as the lone key access to Sylvan Island, is now scheduled to be replaced this fall with a concrete structure that is not meant to bounce. The Charles Dana and Anna Hunt Marsh Bridges in Battleboro were on the hot seat lately due to suspected negligence on the part of the New Hampshire DOT and vandalism by someone who justified his actions on bridgehunter.com and claimed that a 250 foot bridge does not bounce. Both bridges are scheduled for replacement in 5-10 years time. This leads to the question of whether a bridge can or has to bounce. After inquiring about this with some bridge engineers who have worked with this topic, the answer to that question is yes, but with certain restrictions. Says Todd Vierendeel, who works for an engineering firm in South Dakota: \u201cAll bridges will experience some amount of deflection under load. The repeated loading and un-loading of spans due to transient loads (truck and pedestrian) can generate the sensation of vibration, or \u201cbouncing\u201d as has been described here. Excessive deflection and/or vibration can cause structural issues, but it\u2019s actually not desirable primarily from a user comfort perspective.\u201d Billy Wulff, a bridge engineer from Quickborn, Germany, compares this sort of vibration to a plank sitting on top of a box whose expansion and contraction is restricted in contrast to the plank. Therefore, \u201c\u2026engineers build in tolerances (which they calculate) of movement.\u201d He also added that engineers have tried to construct lighter bridges, using the same materials for both the structure and the flooring, in order for it to not move.\nThe danger to such vibration is that too much of it, combined with the usage of light-weight materials for bridge construction will lead to structural failure. Many bridges have collapsed because of what Wulff calls misunderstanding of science combined with unsuitable materials. The most classical example was the collapse of the Tacoma Narrows Bridge in Washington in 1940. There, too much light materials for the bridge deck on \u201cGalloping Gertie\u201d resulted in excessive bouncing in 40 mph wind, resulting in the bridge\u2019s collapse. Video of the collapse can be found here. To regulate the vibration on all bridges, transportation agencies have bridge design codes to ensure that there is a certain tolerance to the bridge vibration; this applies to agencies responsible for highways and railroads, but as Vierendeel states, the guidelines are more stringent for pedestrian bridges as they can notice the vibrations more than automobile drivers or train conductors.\nBut for older bridges, like the aforementioned bridges, he adds that more care is needed to ensure that the vibrations do not cause any discomfort among drivers and pedestrians, namely because of the increase in loads going across the bridge. Therefore, some adjustments, like additional beams, weight restrictions, and extensive maintenance are needed to prolong the bridge\u2019s life. As for bridges that are closed to vehicular traffic but open to pedestrians, such bouncing is considered normal for as they were used to vehicles crossing it, its tolerance may have increased over the years, making the bouncing sensation more pronounced. Yet, as many experts have mentioned, it does not mean that the bridge is unsafe and sometimes, additional support and retrofitting the bridge deck to reduce the vibrations is what is needed to prevent any discomfort of bridge users. This happened with the Millenium Bridge in London, where fluid and mass dampers were retrofitted to reduce the vibration frequency caused by many people crossing the bridge.\nSo to answer the questions, yes it is possible for bridges to vibrate when crossing, but only within tolerances that are imposed in bridge designs approved by transportation agencies. Should bridges witness any excessive vibrations, it is possible to fix the problem by adding support to the decking and retrofitting bridge parts to ensure that the vibrations are at a minimum. There is no such thing as a bridge not vibrating because of factors involving temperature differences combined with the volume of traffic crossing the bridge. This leads to the question of the necessity to tear down bridges that vibrate when it is all part of the way the structure functions. Sometimes some minor repairs to bridges like the ones mentioned combined with continuous maintenance is all that is needed to ensure that the bridge lasts longer and the tax payers do not have to suffer as a result of tearing down a bridge for something whose quality cannot match that of the one that is destined for the scrap heap. While it may be too late to save the Sylvan Island Bridge, it is something officials in New Hampshire and other states should consider before deciding on replacement over restoration.\nThe author would like to thank Billy Wulff and Todd Vierendeel (the names and occupation were changed to protect their identity) for their help in clarifying this topic.\nBy Bridgehunter's Chroniclesin Bridge Glossary, Food for Thought, News 30.

Photo taken in August 2013\nThis bridge tour is the first of a three-part series that will focus on the bridges of Des Moines, Iowa, one of the main stops for this year\u2019s Historic Bridge Weekend.\nHow many of you have a digital camera and enjoy taking photographs of places of interest at night? If you enjoy taking night photography as much as I do, what places have you gone to and spent extensive time taking some pics at night? And which objects are your favorite to photograph at night?\nWith the development of digital cameras and the invention of different ways to photograph places, the interest in taking night photographs has increased exponentially in the last decade for reasons that you can take as many pictures of places of interests from different angles, sort the pics out and take the best ones that you can take pride in. With the increase in interest in places of interests, many city designers have gone out of their way to light up the places of interest at night to encourage photographers to walk the streets at night and take some snaps digitally, as can be seen in a classic example with the city of Flensburg, Germany, where yours truly went wild over night photography in 2010 and 2011 and has an article with some samples to prove it. (click here to view the photos.)\nThe same applies to historic bridges as well, as many cities have accomodated pedestrians and cyclists with a set of lighting on the bridges not just for the purpose of safety but for the purpose of making them more attractive. This takes us to the city of Des Moines, Iowa\u2019s state capital and one of our major stops during our historic bridge tour in August 2013. With a population of over 250,000 inhabitants (700,000 counting the metropolitan area, Saylorville region and Ankeny), the city has one of the highest densities of bridges in the Midwest, competing with Minneapolis-St. Paul, Sioux Falls, Quad Cities and even Chicago, just to name a few. A third of the bridges consists of those built in 1945 and earlier, but there are some substantial bridges that have been built with aesthetic appeal since 1990. And there are quite a few that are decorated with lighting, creating an \u201cAha-Effect\u201d for people walking along the Des Moines or Raccoon Rivers, the two primary waterways serving the city.\nDespite construction of a new floodwall along the river to prevent future flooding (the last ones occurring in 2010 and 2011) and one bridge closing due to structural concerns, we had an opportunity to tour some of the bridges in Des Moines and are providing you with a sneak peak of some of the bridges you can see while touring Des Moines, so that you can plan a future trip there and even take some pictures for yourself.\nFifth Avenue Bridge over the Raccoon River: This 400-foot bridge can be seen easily from the 2nd Street Bridge, its replacement, with its white light illuminating on the color of lime green that covers the three-span Pratt through truss bridge. This bridge was built in 1898 by the King Bridge Company at the time the bridge building company was at its peak in its history. The portal bracing was later adopted by George E. King when he started his own business at the turn of the century. The bridge was converted to a bike trail crossing with a few benches for people to sit down. Yet sadly, the bridge has been closed to traffic since March of this year due to structural concerns. Still, one can see the bridge lit up, providing an opportunity for many to pay homage to a piece of history. Hopefully the structural issues will be resolved so that it can be reopened again.\nMeredith Bike Trail Bridge\nMeredith Bike Trail Bridge: Also known as the Water Street Bridge, this bridge represents a classic example of one of many deck arch bridges built in the 1930s (this one was built in 1937) that will be mentioned in Part II of the tour. Located over the Raccoon River at the confluence of the Des Moines River, the bridge serves the bike trail combs the west bank of the Des Moines River. City officials in 2006 allowed planners to convert a vehicular crossing into a park filled with vegetation and benches, allowing people to enjoy the view of Des Moines\u2019 skyline, and pontists to spend time at that bridge as well as its adjacent Scott Avenue Bridge. The bridge and its skyline can also be seen from Mullet\u2019s restaurant, which is also located at the confluence and serves local specialties and fish entr\u00e9es typical for the region.\nDes Moines skyline and Iowa Cubs baseball stadium. Taken from the Meredith Trail Bridge\nScott Avenue Bridge at sundown. Located adjacent to the Meredith Trail Bridge\nMartin Luther King Bridge\nMartin Luther King Bridge: Built in 2005 as part of the Parkway project honoring the civil rights activist, this crossing features two bridges, one for each direction of traffic, and blue lighting on the outer piers illuminating the Des Moines River. That combined with a row of white LED lighting gives the bridge a blue appearance. Though while work was going on at the bridge to raise the east bank, we were given a treat with this view of the arched piers reflecting off the bridge, reminding the author of the I-35W Bridge in Minneapolis.\nRed Bridge: Also known as the Norfolk and Western Bridge, this 500 foot long two span Pratt through truss bridge was built in 1891 and spans the Des Moines River. After the railroad abandoned its line and bridge in 1995, the city bought the bridge and integrated it into the Principal Walkway system in 2006, while giving the bridge a new deck, cherry red paint and mirror reflecting lights, giving the bridge a unique light red color that is appealing both day and night. Yet the bridge was not lit up during the visit in August and for a good reason: As part of the plan to raise the flood wall, the bridge will be raised by four feet to ensure that floodwaters pass through the city without incident. Already the decking was raised and it is expected that the truss spans will be raised by the middle of next year. Only afterwards will the bridge return to its original form, lit up for people to see again.\nClose-up of the Red Bridge and the decking already raised by four feet as part of the flood-prevention project.\nCenter Street Pedestrian Bridge: This is the youngest and one of the fanciest of modern bridges in Des Moines. Built in 2010 as part of the 125th anniversary of the Principal Financial Group and the project to develop the bike trail, this steel through arch bridge features an arch suspended by still vertical cables, that serves as a divider for the decking designated for bike trail and pedestrian trail. From the air, the decking resembles a football. The bridge was shortlisted for the Bridge Engineering and Design 2011 Footbridge Awards. But it may be one of the bridges listed for this year\u2019s Ammann Awards, not only because of its design but also because of its appearance at night. With the lighting illuminating the arch, which can be seen from I-235 and from the Red Bridge, it makes a perfect picture if taken with the skyline in the background, as shown above. Yet the dark side is the fact that the bridge may be the least safe of the bridges for it is a meeting place for gangs and violence. So when at the bridge at night, please take extra precaution to ensure your\u2019re safe.\nEdna Griffin Memorial Tied Basket Handle Arch Bridge\nI-235 Tied Basket Handle Arch Bridges: The last stop on the night tour are the I-235 Tied Arch Bridges. Built in 2005 as part of the project to widen and improve the interstate through the city center, one will not miss the three blue and white-colored tied arch bridges located within a distance of three miles of each other. This is especially the case at nightfall when they are lit, providing a stark contrast to the yellow sodium street lamps that line up along the interestate. The arch bridges are located as follows, driving westward:\nEdna Griffin Memorial: between 6th Street exit (access avaiable there only) and the Des Moines River. Perfect site for a photo with the skyline in the background.\nCenter Street: east of 42nd Street exit. Access either at Center Street (south of I-235) or Rollins Avenue/ 40th Place (north of I-235)\nRider Way: West of 42nd Street exit. Access through Center Street at Roosevelt High School.\nRider Way Bridge\nIf one has to sum up the night tour of the bridges in Des Moines in one word, it would be awesome. Each bridge has its own character which is illuminated quite clearly at night when driving past, making the driver spend some time at the structure taking some pictures. While it may take 2-3 hours to complete the tour, counting the walking in, it is one of the activities that one should take advantage of when visiting the city.\nYet the night tour is only a fraction of what a person can see for bridges in the state capital. When we go to part II of the tour of Des Moines\u2019 bridges, we\u2019ll take a look at the other historic bridges that are a must-see, namely the ones built of concrete and steel, namely, arch and truss bridges.\nAuthor\u2019s Note: More information on the bridges can be found by clicking on the underlined words, which will take you to your respective sites.\nBy Bridgehunter's Chroniclesin Bridge Profile USA 25.

This concept may be unusual to many engineers and politicians, but they are being used in many regions of the country today.\nLike this one in Le Sueur, Minnesota. Located along the Minnesota River, the largest community of Le Sueur County with 4,000 inhabitants is the birth place of William Mayo, one of the founders of the world-renowned Mayo Clinic in Rochester, two hours to the east of town. While the town has a nice city center to the east of the railroad, it does have a thorn on its side, something city officials are hoping to get rid of when the railroad decides to abandon its line between Mankato and Shakopee, which is this deck plate girder bridge:\nThis railroad bridge crosses Hwy. 93 and has provided numerous headaches for drivers for two reasons: 1. The hill leading to the underpass is steep and after going underneath the bridge, you end up on the Minnesota River bridge and 2. The underpass is too narrow and too low for trucks to pass, forcing many truck drivers to use the exit to the north of town (at Hwy. 112 and US Hwy. 169). As the railroad is very active on this line, state and local authorities for many years have tried to place warning signs on both ends of the crossing, even warning drivers from as far away as US Hwy. 169 to consider other options if their load is too wide or even too narrow.\nThis concept was found just east of the interchange on Hwy. 93. How it functions is simple: if an overheight truck passes by the detector, an alarm will activate warning drivers of the danger ahead forcing him to change his course. A secondary alarm is activated warning police and other officials of the danger ahead so that they can act quickly and stop the person before reaching the underpass or bridge with a low clearance.\nGiven the lack of ability of some drivers to pay attention to weight and height restrictions of many bridges in the country, with the resulting factor being damage or destruction of the structure, this concept may be the best solution to the problems involving bridges with these handicaps. With millions of bridges with height restrictions on America\u2019s highways, the cost for replacing every single structure would be so exorbitant that it would put the entire country back into an economic recession that would be worse than the one we just saw recently in 2008/09. This is not counting the cost for environmental impact and mitigation surveys and the design of the structure. In Minnesota alone, at least two dozen of these bridges are still in operation on the state\u2019s highways, many of which still have some years of service left, like the Hwy. 7 Bridge west of Montevideo. This Parker span has spanned the Chippewa River since 1959 and is in tip-top condition.\nThis leads us to our question for the forum:\nDo you think that height and weight restriction devices like the one in Le Sueur would be the most effective way to keep overweight and/or oversize vehicles from utilizing bridges with such restrictions? If so, how can we ensure that these people obey these restrictions without damaging or destroying the bridge? If it is not a viable solution, what alternatives would you recommend?\nYou can place your comments here on this page, or on the Chronicles\u2019 facebook or LinkedIn pages. By doing so, you might have some ideas to share with others, who might find them interesting and useful. Furthermore it will help many people who think replacement is the only option to look at more reasonable options which can save money and force many people to think common sense. Looking forward to your thoughts on this innovation, which seems to be a very effective solution to our height and weight problems on the roads.\nNote: The Skagit River crossing reopened to traffic on 15 September after crews replaced the temporary Bailey truss spans with concrete beams spans, built at the site where a section of the truss bridge collapsed. More information can be found here.\nThe Minnesota River crossing featured a 700 foot truss bridge (400 foot Pennsylvania, 200 foot Parker and 100 foot Warren pony) built in 1923 by the Wausau (Wisconsin) Bridge and Iron Works Company, replacing an iron Post through truss bridge. It used to carry US Hwy. 169 before it was relocated to the west and served as a bypass in 1967. The bridge was replaced with a current structure- a concrete slab bridge- in 1984. A photo of the Post truss can be found here as well as the 1923 span (here).\nBy Bridgehunter's Chroniclesin Bridge Maintenance, Bridge Profile USA, Food for Thought, Forum 24.

The same series that was based on the travels of Laura Ingalls Wilder, who was played by Melissa Gilbert, and also starred (the late) Michael Landon, who played Charles Ingalls, Laura\u2019s father, and was involved in a great deal with directing and producing the show during its 10-year run, including the final movie in 1984, when Walnut Grove was blown to bits by the town\u2019s people in retaliation to the railroad tycoon\u2019s purchase of the community for his own use.\nWhile it is unknown whether the real Walnut Grove (located in Redwood County, Minnesota east of Tracy) was actually blown up in reality, it is known that the community prides itself in the legacy of Laura, for it has a museum with a collection of artefacts from her days (Ms. Ingalls-Wilder lived for 90 years and wrote 10 books before passing on in 1957), and a dugout located two miles north of the community of 800 inhabitants, where the Ingalls family settled for several years- as mentioned in her book \u201cOn The Banks of Plum Creek.\u201d The bridge shown in the photo above is located at the site of the dugout, spanning Plum Creek.\nNow many people are wondering why a pedestrian bridge was chosen as a mystery bridge. The answer is simple: because of its unique design in comparison to the present-day mail-order truss bridges that have either a Pratt or bowstring arch design and are welded together at the company before being transported to the site. This pedestrian bridge is a bedstead Warren pony truss, but it is built using light steel, and whose diagonal beams are cylindral. Furthermore, unlike the truss spans whose connections are either pinned, riveted or welded, the connections on this bridge are very unusual for the diagonal beams are sandwiched together by opposite diagonal beams (with the floor beams sandwiching the outer diagonal beams) and held together by nuts and bolts. It is not 100% pinned-connected nor are the connections riveted. A close-up of the connections can be seen below and by clicking onto this link.\nClose-up of the unusual connections as seen with the lower chord beam sandwiching a cylindrical diagonal beam.\nIt is unknown whether other pedestrian bridges have this unique feature, let alone when this bridge was built. But one variable is certain, which is the fact that this bridge was built prior to the creation of welded-truss bridges beginning in the 1980s. In other words, this bridge would have to be at least 40 years old, which if so, it has survived the test of time with little or no incident. While the flooring and railing look relatively new and thick in appearance, one can look more closely to see that the trusses support it, even though it is light weight and thin in appearance.\nThis leads to a couple questions involving this bridge:\n1. When was this bridge constructed and who was the contractor?\n2. Are there other bridges with such unusual connections like this one? If so, where?\n3. Have you visited a Laura Ingalls Wilder site?\nThe third question should be on your 100 places to visit before dying list for Laura\u2019s pioneer travels is part of American history which one should learn a bit about. Even the actors and actresses have stopped by Walnut Grove to learn more about Laura and take part in the annual pageant in July, including Karen Grassle (who played Laura\u2019s mother Carolyn), Alison Arngrim (who played Nellie Oleson, Laura\u2019s archrival) and Charlotte Stewart (who played Laura\u2019s teacher, Ms. Beadle). There are seven historical sites that are devoted to Laura Ingalls Wilder, which apart from Walnut Grove include DeSmet (South Dakota), Spring Valley (Minnesota), Burr Oak (Iowa), Independence (Kansas), Pepin (Wisconsin), and Mansfield (Missouri). All of them are highly recommended to visit when passing through the midwestern part of the US as a tourist and as a person keen on knowing about American history.\nRegardless of whether you are a civil engineer wanting to analyse this bridge or someone wanting to share a story of visiting the Laura Ingalls Wilder site, please share your thoughts on the three questions either by posting your comments here or on the Chronicles\u2019 facebook or LinkedIn page as well as on James Baughn\u2019s Bridgehunter.com website.

There are some unique features that make the F.W. Kent Park in Tiffin special to the region. One of them is the number of historic bridges that were brought here and preserved. They all span various tributaries, lining up along the lake they empty into, the same lake that was created and is used for fishing and swimming. Each span has a different bridge type and a history of its own, including how it was moved here and preserved.\nLike the one in the picture above. This bridge is touted as a roof-top truss bridge. Located at the very north tip of the lake, this bridge is different from all the other bridges, for it was homemade, originating from the trusses that were salvaged from an important building that was demolished in Iowa City prior to the creation of the park. It\u2019s markings are similar to a series of bowstring arch bridges that were built in Crawford County, Iowa in 1945-6 including the Nishnabotna River crossing near Manila as seen below.\nPhoto courtesy of HABS/HAER\nThe difference is the fact that the Manila Bridge is the actual truss bridge itself with the lower chord (featuring lateral and diagonal bracing) supporting the roadway, whereas the the one at F.W. Kent Park features the trusses, used as decoration (or at least it appears to be used as that) and tacked onto the actual beam bridge itself. Furthermore, there are alternating vertical beams in the Tiffin Bridge, while the Manila Bridge has all verticals subdividing the rhombus, thus having an X-frame for each panel.\nDespite the difference between the two, the roof-top truss bridge\u2019s uniqueness is one of the reasons why it is a sin to not visit the park if you are a pontist driving through. It is even a bigger sin if one doesn\u2019t know about its history, let alone how the park came into being in the first place. Henceforth, before explaining about the park further, the Chronicles has created a short quiz for you to answer, integrating this mystery bridge in with the questions pertaining to the park itself. So without further ado, here are the questions, created in a hybrid fashion:\n1. The FW Kent Park is younger than the Historic Bridge Park near Kalmazoo, Michigan. True or False?\n2. Which of the following truss bridge types can NOT be found at FW Kent Park?\na. Pratt b. Warren c. Whipple d. Queenpost\n3. The origin of the Rooftop truss bridge was a building that was demolished in Iowa City. Can you name the building and when it existed?\n4. How many bridges can be found at FW Kent Park?\n5. At least one bridge was airlifted to the Park. True or False?\n6. All of the bridges brought in were the ones that served traffic in Johnson County. True or False?\n7. How was the Rooftop truss bridge assembled?\n8. What activities can you do at the park, apart from photographing bridges?\na. swimming b. hiking c. fishing d. biking e. all of the above\nThe answers will be revealed next week at this time. They will be eye-openers for there are some facts that were claimed to be correct, but the truth begs to differ. Plus there will be some interesting facts about who created the park and how the rooftop truss bridge was built. So stay tuned, take some guesses and allow yourself to learn some new things about historic bridges and how they found a new home in FW Kent Park.

Source: History of Nansemond County\nSwing bridges have become a rare commodity on our roads today. Built using a center pier designed to turn the span at a 90\u00b0 angle, most of them were built using mostly Howe, Lattice, Baltimore or even Warren trusses. There are many examples of such bridges that used to exist but have long become a distant memory, like the Hojack Swing Bridge in Rochester, New York, The Willis Avenue Bridge in New York City, The Inver Grove Heights Swing Bridge south of Bloomington and the Burlington Railroad Bridge. The engineers who built these bridges during the heyday of industrialization (1870- 1920) went out of their way to make the swing bridges not only functional for horse and buggy to use and to allow ships to pass, but also appealing to tourists and later historians and preservationists.\nThis bridge in the city-state of Suffolk, Virginia is another example of an appealing swing bridge that has long since been demolished. Judging by the picture submitted by Nathan Holth, this bridge appears to have been built of iron and has one of two designs: 1. A pair of kingpost truss spans supported by a central panel consisting of two pairs of vertical towers with light weight diagonal beams holding the trusses made of heavier iron together or 2. a Camelback truss bridge whose center panel is thinner and lighter than the two outer panels. In either case, the bridge was a hand-powered swing bridge, used to allow boats to pass. It is similar to another photo that was submitted by the same person but located at Reed\u2019s Ferry in Virginia.\nPhoto submitted by Nathan Holth\nThe problem with both bridges is threefold. First of all, while the designs are similar to each other, it is unknown who designed and built the bridges, let alone when they were constructed, except to say that for the last question, it appears that the period between 1875 and 1895 would best fit for iron was used often for bridge construction before it was supplanted by steel after 1890.\nAlso unknown is the location of the swing bridge, for in the top picture, it was claimed that it was located in Everet\u2019s, whereas in the bottom photo, it was located at Reed\u2019s Ferry. It should be confirmed that Everet\u2019s was located in Nansemond County, which was subsequentially absorbed into the city-state of Suffolk in 1974. While Suffolk has a total population of 1.7 million inhabitants as of present (including 87,000 in the city itself), its land size is the largest in the United States and is larger than the German states of Hamburg, Berlin and Bremen, as well as the Vatican City and Monaco combined! Given the village\u2019s absorption, it is unknown whereabouts it was located when it existed prior to the 1970s.\nPerhaps it may have something to do with the fact that many streams in the city-state were dammed and henceforth, lakes were created as a result. While the Nansemond River flows through Suffolk, as many as five lakes and reservoirs were created, which meant that bridges like this one were either removed before the projects commenced, or were inundated and the bridge parts have long since rusted away. In either case, there are many questions that need to be resolved for this unique bridge, namely:\n1. When did Everet\u2019s and Reed\u2019s Ferry exist?\n2. When were the bridges in their respective communities were built and who built them? When were they removed?\n3. When was the Nansemond River dammed and the lakes created?\nAll information on the two bridges should be directed in the Comments section of James Baughn\u2019s Bridgehunter.com website by clicking on the name Everet\u2019s Bridge. You can also add any information on Reed\u2019s Ferry Bridge in the Comment section if you have any that will be helpful.\nThe Nansemond County portion of the city-state of Suffolk has a unique history of its own, as it was named after Nansemond, a native American tribe who lived along the river at the time of the arrival of the English colonists in Jamestown in 1607. Under the name of New Norfolk County, it became one of the oldest counties in the US, having been established in 1636. After being divided into Upper and Lower Norfolk in 1637, the Upper portion became Nansemond County in 1646 with the county seat later being Suffolk (it was established in 1742 and was a county seat eight years later). It remained a county seat until Suffolk and Nansemond became a city-states in 1972. Interesting note was the fact that Suffolk had been an independent city from 1910 up to then. Subsequentially Nansemond became part of the city-state Suffolk two years later. A city-state in this case means that even though it is part of the Commonwealth of Virginia, it is an independent city, having its own government and laws as well as responsibilities for its infrastructure, education system, and the like. Virginia still supports Suffolk with funding, but has little influence on the activities of the city-state, making it similar to the aforementioned city-states, as well as the Spanish state of Catalonia, which is much larger than Suffolk.\nBy Bridgehunter's Chroniclesin Bridge Profile USA, Mystery Bridge 17.

        "raw_content": "Inside the Salty Grind of Professional Mermaids\nBeing a mythical fish woman ain't easy.\nPhoto by Margo Mortiz\nToday's professional mermaids don't just don tails and smile and sit idly by pools. They are media savvy entrepreneurs who publish memoirs, write how-to books, author Buzzfeed articles, start swim schools, teach fitness classes, organize conventions, give TEDx talks, and work on every imaginable way to raise their profiles.\n\"What influenced me to take it all the way was in 2005, that pivotal moment when YouTube was first starting,\" says Mermaid Melissa, a Florida-based mermaid who began her career as a professional free diver. \"Suddenly there was this new platform on social media where you could actually put your videos somewhere that could be seen by the whole world.\" And that footage is being seen; she has over 300,000 followers on her YouTube channel. Her Facebook page does even better at over a million likes.\nCourtesy of Mermaid Melissa\nToday, there's no shortage of professional mermaids. A whole Mernetwork features every kind of hirable one imaginable, with mermen, merpods, and other merfolk available for work. But the ones at the top have been around for a while, and have mastered the tricky business of marketing themselves well, bringing their work out of a small niche and into the wider world.\nPeople don't take me seriously because I'm a woman, and secondly, because I dress up as a mystical fish creature. So that's a big obstacle.\nThere's a seriousness and dedication to the work that the mermaids find is often not appreciated by those outside the industry. Their inboxes are flooded daily with thousands of young admirers looking to break into the business, a generation that grew up watching The Little Mermaid and think becoming a professional mermaid simply involves slipping on a tail. And then there are those who believe their occupation is just as made up as the creatures they personify. \"The most difficult part of being a professional mermaid is not being taken seriously,\" says Mermaid Atlantis, a Bay Area-based mermaid who hosts mermaid swim meet-ups for thousands of interested people. \"First of all, it's because I'm a woman, and secondly, because I dress up as a mystical fish creature. So that's a big obstacle.\"\nWhile not all mermaids are women, there is something to be said of the relationship women have with what mermaids have historically represented\u2014the evil creature that lured men out to sea, invented to \"attack femininity and make women a dangerous thing,\" as Vaughn Scribner, an assistant professor studying the history of mermaids at the University of Central Arkansas, says. It's why modern mermaids are changing the face of the mythical image, Scribner muses and don't necessarily incorporate every part of the legend into their personas. \"I don't like the myth of the mermaid as this dark siren that's going to pull people down into the depths,\" Mermaid Hannah tells me. \"I really see the mermaid as this loving persona and an icon for the ocean. I also don't like the traditional clamshell bras. I try to avoid sticking clamshells on my boobs.\"\nToday, the interpretation of the professional mermaid varies widely. Mermaid Melissa has tails in every color of the rainbow, from silver to neon pink to glow-in-the-dark. Mermaid Atlantis has a whole array of creative looks, some of which don't even include a tail. According to them, it's freeing not to have to conform to the typical image.\n\"I feel like ten years ago, it was only this one sort of mermaid\u2014the Disney representation of this shape, this size, this look,\" says Mermaid Kariel, a mermaid based in Hawaii who has been doing it professionally for the past seven years. \"And now, it can be anything. The gender doesn't matter, the size, the personality: It just can be what it is. And I think that's almost a better representation than anything specific.\"\nToday's mermaid is a jack-of-all trades, and the most successful ones can adeptly move between roles. Each one is a businesswoman, actress, athlete, and one more role: advocate. Nearly all of the ones I talked to use their characters as a platform to promote a cause, whether it's ocean conservation, environmental awareness, or simply all-around positivity. And all of them alluded to the idea of the mermaid as a role model.\n\"I see a movement of women these days, who are proud and strong, standing up for what they believe in, and claiming their own sensuality in a really beautiful way,\" says Mermaid Hannah. \"I see that rather than the mermaid being this helpless, disconnected, lonely figure sitting on a rock by themselves in the ancient myth.\" But still\u2014their representations have aspects of the mystical and otherworldly, a touch that is not to be overlooked. Scroll through a modern mermaid's Instagram feed, and you'll be spellbound by shot after shot of them gliding effortlessly into the depths. It's a reason for their current success: They appeal to the modern imagination, blurring the line between myth and actual life.\nFor now, they inhabit something that's somewhere in between, providing a niche service they feel is a necessary one. Many would agree. \"The very first time I put on a tail and swam, everybody in the pool stopped and gave me a standing ovation,\" says Mermaid Atlantis. \"An older woman came up to me and said, 'What you're doing is important. People need this magic. Please do this in front of as many people as you can.'\" She's been doing it ever since.\nmermaid hannah",

This is because of its improved insulation and lower attenuation.\nCat6: combines tight pair twists with added insulation for the purpose of diminishing crosstalk\nCat6a: does the same but twists each pair around a bendable, central plastic support that is twisted as well\nThe diameter of category 6a cable has shrunk somewhat over the years but that hasn\u2019t harmed its applicable properties. Nonetheless, it is still a heavier cabling option. This will make a difference in how many cables a technician will be able to fit into a tray in addition to where they can be positioned. And, because of its diameter, it needs a greater bend radius compared to thinner network cables.\nAs any experienced technician knows, category 6a cable is best bundled with cable straps because there is a risk of attenuation when it comes to the overzealous tightening of zip ties.\nWhereas cat5 and cat 6 cable can be conveniently dispensed from a pull-box, cat6a comes on a reel, which means finding the proper medium for stowing, transporting and the allotment of various lengths, such as a stand or a cart of some type.\nThere is no doubt that the need for greater bandwidth with a reduced amount of attenuation is only going to grow over time. When your time comes, BTS is ready to use their extensive experience with category 6a cabling to get you where you need to be.\nThis entry was posted in Telecommunications and tagged Cable, cat 6, cat 6a, Category 6 cable, Crosstalk (electronics).

        "raw_content": "Global Warming Pause? The Answer Is Blowin\u2019 Into the Ocean\nPublication: NBC News Date: February 9, 2014 View Article\nFor the past 13 years, global surface air temperatures have hardly budged higher despite continual pumping of planet-warming gasses into the atmosphere from the engines of modern life. Does this prove global warming is a giant hoax? No, according to a new study, which says the missing heat is being blown into the western Pacific Ocean by extraordinarily powerful and accelerating trade winds.\n\u201cTheir acceleration over the last couple of decades is way stronger than you\u2019ve ever seen in a climate model, about twice as strong,\u201d Matthew England, a climate scientist at the University of New South Wales in Sydney, Australia, told NBC News. \u201cThis is an unprecedented level of strengthening and it is strong enough that it is actually pushing heat in the Pacific Ocean into the ocean\u2019s interior,\u201d he added.\nAs the heat is drawn down into the ocean\u2019s interior, cooler water rises to the surface and cools air temperatures. When \u2014 it\u2019s not a matter of if, noted England \u2014 the winds slacken, the heat stored in the Pacific Ocean will return to the atmosphere, allowing the surface air temperatures to spike higher and \u201ccatch up to the original projections of global warming in under a decade.\u201d\nTags: Ocean, Temperature, Wind\nWeather pattern could provide early warning for catastrophic U.S. heat waves\nThe emergence of a newly identified atmospheric pattern is likely to provide two to three weeks advance warning that a stifling and potentially deadly heat wave will hit the U.S., according to a new study. Since current forecasts go out no more than 10 days, the additional notice could give homeowners, farmers, electric companies and hospitals critical time to prepare for severe heat.\nThe precursor is a so-called \u201cwavenumber 5\u201d pattern, a sequence of alternating high and low pressure systems \u2014 five each \u2014 that ring the northern mid-latitudes several miles above the Earth\u2019s surface, according the research published Sunday in the journal Nature Geoscience.\nTags: Atmosphere, Drought, Model, Temperature, Weather\nThe world is hurtling toward a stark future where the web of life unravels, human cultures are uprooted, and millions of species go extinct, according to a new study. This doomsday scenario isn\u2019t far off, either: It may start within a decade in parts of Indonesia, and begin playing out over most of the world \u2014 including cities across the United States \u2014 by mid-century.\nWhat\u2019s more, even a serious effort to stabilize spiraling greenhouse gas emissions will only stave off these changes until around 2069, notes the study from the University of Hawaii, Manoa, published online Wednesday in the journal Nature. The authors warn that the time is now to prepare for a world where even the coldest of years will be warmer than the hottest years of the past century and a half.\nTags: Extinction, Greenhouse Gas, Species, Temperature",

        "raw_content": "Gymnastics rule modern cheerleading\nNEW YORK (Reuters) - Cartwheels, splits, handsprings and tumbles are all in a day\u2019s practice for today\u2019s cheerleaders, whose fierce athleticism belies the old stereotype of popular girls waving pom-poms.\nExperts say cheerleaders these days are likely to be every bit as fit as the teams they\u2019re cheering.\n\u201cCheerleaders are one of the most conditioned athletes that I know. You need to be at a high level in order to do all those stunts and tumbling,\u201d said Stacey DelPreore, a New Jersey-based fitness instructor.\nDelPreore, who has been a cheerleading coach on the staff of the United Cheerleading Association for 10 years, said gymnastics rule modern cheer routines.\n\u201cA long time ago it was more dance-based, and rah-rah, lets cheer on the football team,\u201d she said. \u201cBut as a lot of tumbling and gymnastics got into cheerleading and stunts became involved, it became more athletic, based more on gymnast-type movements than (on) dance.\u201d\nMore complicated stunts demand greater conditioning, according to DelPreore, whose fitness DVD Train2Cheer, is a high impact cardio, strength and conditioning workout developed specifically for cheerleaders and dancers.\n\u201cThere\u2019s no actual tumbling in it, but the exercises simulate the motions of stunting, tumbling and dancing that pertains to competitive cheerleading,\u201d she said, \u201calong with a lot of plyometric (jumping) moves, which help with back jumps and handsprings.\u201d\nDelPreore said too many youngsters are hurt because they start doing back flips without knowing their bodies.\n\u201cA lot of these kids are starting at eight and nine years old. If they\u2019re not conditioned properly, there are injuries,\u201d she said.\nCross training is also crucial to staying healthy, she said.\nJessica Matthews of the American Council on Exercise said as cheerleading has evolved into its own sport, it\u2019s become more important to build conditioning programs, such as strength, cardio, and flexibility exercises, into the training.\n\u201cI feel like you get some of that with cheerleading. But I don\u2019t know how structured it\u2019s been,\u201d said Matthews, an exercise physiologist and former high school cheerleader.\n\u201cYou might have a cheerleading coach with a background in choreography, but do you have someone with a conditioning background to work with them to avoid injuries?\u201d\nMatthews praises cheerleading for providing a great social environment and for getting youngsters active at a time when obesity affects 17 percent of all children adolescents in the United States, according to government figures.\nWhile athletic prowess is paramount, personality remains part of the skill set.\n\u201cYou really have to have that spirited energy and to want to be front and center,\u201d Matthews said. \u201cIf you\u2019re a little more reserved, it might not be for you.\u201d\nCheerleading is bigger than it\u2019s ever been, according to Matthews and DelPreore, who both began cheering with Pop Warner, a non-profit organization in the United States that promotes youth football, cheer and dance.\nDelPreore said those who have cheered, even quite a long time ago, still thrill to the energy, the music and the choreography.\n\u201cI feel like when you\u2019re a cheerleader you always have that in you,\u201d she said.",

        "raw_content": "Perhaps the greatest indictment one can make of modern colleges and universities is simply to observe the almost unimaginable stupidity and lack of creativity in those who make the policy there. Evidently, the invaluable education, and being surrounded by so much diversity (I am told this is pedagogically beneficial) doesn\u2019t have much of an effect on the school\u2019s own administrators. One can only hope the effect is somewhat more positive on its students.\nI had written about the incredible story of Faisal Jaswal \u2014 the cool, \u201cprogressive\u201d dean of students at Bellevue College who stalked, manipulated, and raped an assistant for six years.\nDespite being so cool! Despite being so progressive!\n\u2026but of course, that\u2019s the point.\nTalk is cheap. Any sociopath can say the right words. So what does Bellevue College do?\nObviously, more of the same:\nThe president of Bellevue College, Jerry Weber, released a series of emails to express his concerns and campus resources for those struggling. \u201cI am sorry for additional distress this story may have caused. This email outlines preliminary steps we are taking to process, heal, and move forward as a community,\u201d Weber wrote.\nIn one email, Bellevue College is working on a Campus Response Planning Team to help ensure healing and training are made possible for students and staff.\nBellevue College has received a $300,000 grant from the U.S. Department of Justice Office on Violence Against Women. This grant is to provide training around harassment, sexual assault and discrimination. Furthermore, this all helps to ensure there is a framework to coordinate with campus responses to associated partners of the Bellevue Police Department, LifeWire and King County Sexual Assault Resource Center, or KCSARC.\nTo paraphrase: Bellevue College is being rewarded for having allowed the rape of a staff member. They are being paid (that money is going to be spent on some faculty \u201cexpert,\u201d I\u2019m sure) to reaffirm their opposition to disrespecting women.\nBut perhaps I am not being fair. They are also engaging in a concerted effort to review and update their anti-discrimination policies and procedures.\nHowever did we get along without these bureaucratic do-nothings before\u2026\nAs someone who actually met with \u2014 and was in a way kind of at war with \u2014 Faisal, I can assure you that no one \u201crespected women\u201d and \u201copposed violence against women\u201d more than Faisal. He knew the policy better than anyone (he was, in fact, the mastermind behind Bellevue College\u2019s horrendous \u201cBias Incident\u201d policy). Only a complete imbecile or a bureaucrat would think that rapists just need to be trained better on how not to rape people. For real predators, the red tape that is ostensibly created to keep people safer is just another tool for taking advantage of others. This was a phenomenon I also wrote about at the time, in a different but thematically related context.\nThis is why I wrote that students could expect more of the same in the future:\nGetting rid of Faisal is not the end of the road for academic institutions like Bellevue College. This is the shape of things to come. Faisal was not a one-off; he was the natural candidate based upon the values which schools, in general, have chosen and the incentives they have created.\nThe administrators who run the school have one hammer: make the policy more strict and throw money at it. And every problem looks like a nail. If the problem is made worse by these \u2014 by making the source of the problem murky, or by simply incentivizing its continuation \u2014 then they don\u2019t have any other answers. They don\u2019t really \u201cthink,\u201d they just kind of follow decision-making flow-charts; if A, then B; if B, then C, etc. Any problem that isn\u2019t anticipated by the flow-chart \u2014 which is composed by faraway \u201cexperts,\u201d probably in D.C. \u2014 is not the administrator\u2019s responsibility or problem. Legally speaking, they \u201cdid all they could\u201d if they follow their policies.\nThe fact that they\u2019re doubling down on the exact same environmental qualities that allowed Faisal to thrive in and prey on the school for years in the first place doesn\u2019t look like a smart move. It certainly isn\u2019t going to work. It won\u2019t protect students from rapists, and it will probably land a lot of innocent people in hot water over nothing.\nBut it will cover the asses of the administrators.\nThat\u2019s more or less the kind of solution you can expect from our colleges and universities these days.\nI think what\u2019s most amusing about this story is how Irene Wright at the school paper wrote about Bellevue College\u2019s response:\nKIRO 7 reported that Bellevue College has been recently reviewing and making changes to our anti-discriminatory procedures. Bellevue College released news that \u201cThe Board will be conducting its final review of the revamped anti-discrimination policy at its regularly scheduled October meeting.\u201d\nSayumi Irey, executive director of the Social Justice Leadership Institute and interim vice president for diversity at Bellevue College, sent out a campus wide email in late September stating the resources that Bellevue College provides for students and staff.\nSJLI is part of the Office of Equity and Pluralism at Bellevue College, which provides support for the students, staff and community of Bellevue College through educational opportunities for all people of color, disabilities, different ethnic heritages, gender identities, orientation and limited financial resources.\nIrey stated in an email to Bellevue College faculty and students, \u201cIn light of recent controversies appearing in the press, both locally and nationally, Bellevue College would like to reassure you that we do not tolerate any discrimination, including sexual harassment, on our campus.\u201d\nLinks online to Title IX along with contact information for reporting these incidents were the top three ways listed. Public Safety, including Bellevue Police Department and Emotional Support Services for students and staff were also provided.\nFor many, this is an ongoing struggle to understand the high incidents of sexual assault, harassment, and discrimination. Bellevue College is taking an aggressive approach towards ensuring that BC community, students and faculty are protected, safe and able to access any and all resources.\nIf you aren\u2019t reassured by that, well\u2026 I just don\u2019t know what to say.\nTags: Bellevue College, Culture, Education, Faisal, Faisal Jaswal, Jaswal, Language, Manipulation, Rape, Watchdog\nPrevious PostOn the Wall\nNext PostThey Really Are That Bad",

Mr Jelani Aliyu, Director General of the agency, said this at the launch of the maiden magazine by the Federated Organisation of Sokoto State Student\u2019s Association (FOSOSSA) on Saturday in Sokoto.\nAliyu, who is the famous Nigerian Chevrolet Car designer, said that the agency aimed to successfully harness the talents of Nigerian youths to support the country\u2019s automobile industry. He said: \u201cOur focus now is to introduce a learning ground where the teeming youths will be supported in developing their own ideas into reality. \u201cMoreover, we will continue as an agency to ensure more support and collaboration with schools of higher learning in Nigeria, especially in science and technology initiatives. \u201cThis is to fish out the required talented youths among the students to make necessary arrangements on how to achieve the desired goal. We are planning to aid in boosting the country\u2019s economy.\u201d\nThe Director General also said that the agency had invited foreign investors to come and invest in Nigeria to enhance in the creation of more jobs for the youths. \u201cAs Nigerians, we have the opportunity to adopt advanced solutions and use them to propel the society, as such the agency plans more innovative support to the country\u2019s automobile industries. \u201cWe have invited more foreign investors with the aim of creating more job opportunities and ensure the country\u2019s economic growth to successfully build a new Nigeria of our dreams,\u201d he said.\nAliyu further said that the solution to Nigeria\u2019s problems and challenges was with each and every citizen of the country. \u201cAs such, every Nigerian citizen has a responsibility in moving the country forward and we have to embrace our advantages of being the giant of Africa to achieve the set objectives,\u201d he said. He said that all the vehicles in the world could be produced in Nigeria through collective engagement of talented youths which Nigeria was blessed with. He urged Nigerians to individually and collectively focus on ensuring the dreams and aspiration of the country are achieved for a better society.\nIn his remark, Gov. Aminu Tambuwal of Sokoto, commended the Director General for giving Nigerian youths the hope of moving the country forward. Tambuwal, represented by the state Commissioner for Basic and Secondary Education, Alhaji Jabbi Kilgore, said that Sokoto state would continue to empower youths to achieve their desire objectives.

        "raw_content": "Home Health The Ugly Truth About Alcoholism\nThe Ugly Truth About Alcoholism\nAlcohol use disorder (which includes a level that\u2019s sometimes called alcoholism) is a pattern of alcohol use that involves problems controlling your drinking, being preoccupied with alcohol, continuing to use alcohol even when it causes problems, having to drink more to get the same effect, or having withdrawal symptoms when you rapidly decrease or stop drinking\nUnhealthy alcohol use includes any alcohol use that puts your health or safety at risk or causes other alcohol-related problems. It also includes binge drinking \u2014 a pattern of drinking where a male consumes five or more drinks within two hours or a female downs at least four drinks within two hours. Binge drinking causes significant health and safety risks\nIf your pattern of drinking results in repeated significant distress and problems functioning in your daily life, you likely have alcohol use disorder. It can range from mild to severe. However, even a mild disorder can escalate and lead to serious problems, so early treatment is important\nAlcohol use disorder can be mild, moderate or severe, based on the number of symptoms you experience. Signs and symptoms may include\nContinuing to drink alcohol even though you know it\u2019s causing physical, social or interpersonal problems\nUsing alcohol in situations where it\u2019s not safe, such as when driving or swimming\nExperiencing withdrawal symptoms \u2014 such as nausea, sweating and shaking \u2014 when you don\u2019t drink, or drinking to avoid these symptoms\nAlcohol use disorder can include periods of alcohol intoxication and symptoms of withdrawal\nAlcohol intoxication results as the amount of alcohol in your blood stream increases. The higher the blood alcohol concentration is, the more impaired you become. Alcohol intoxication causes behavior problems and mental changes. These may include inappropriate behavior, unstable moods, impaired judgment, slurred speech, impaired attention or memory, and poor coordination. You can also have periods called \u201cblackouts,\u201d where you don\u2019t remember events. Very high blood alcohol levels can lead to coma or even death\nAlcohol withdrawal can occur when alcohol use has been heavy and prolonged and is then stopped or greatly reduced. It can occur within several hours to four or five days later. Symptoms include sweating, rapid heartbeat, hand tremors, problems sleeping, nausea and vomiting, hallucinations, restlessness and agitation, anxiety, and occasionally seizures. Symptoms can be severe enough to impair your ability to function at work or in social situations\nWHAT IS CONSIDERED ONE DRINK?\nThe National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism defines one standard drink as any one of these\nGenetic, psychological, social and environmental factors can impact how drinking alcohol affects your body and behavior. Theories suggest that for certain people drinking has a different and stronger impact that can lead to alcohol use disorder\nOver time, drinking too much alcohol may change the normal function of the areas of your brain associated with the experience of pleasure, judgment and the ability to exercise control over your behavior. This may result in craving alcohol to try to restore good feelings or reduce negative ones\nRisk factors for alcohol use disorder include\nSteady drinking over time:Drinking too much on a regular basis for an extended period or binge drinking on a regular basis can lead to alcohol-related problems or alcohol use disorder\nAge:People who begin drinking at an early age, and especially in a binge fashion, are at a higher risk of alcohol use disorder. Alcohol use may begin in the teens, but alcohol use disorder occurs more frequently in the 20s and 30s. However, it can begin at any age\nFamiy history:The risk of alcohol use disorder is higher for people who have a parent or other close relative who has problems with alcohol. This may be influenced by genetic factors\nDepression and other mental health problems: It\u2019s common for people with a mental health disorder such as anxiety, depression, schizophrenia or bipolar disorder to have problems with alcohol or other substances.\nSocial and cultural factors: Having friends or a close partner who drinks regularly could increase your risk of alcohol use disorder. The glamorous way that drinking is sometimes portrayed in the media also may send the message that it\u2019s OK to drink too much. For young people, the influence of parents, peers and other role models can impact risk\nCOMPLICATIONS OF ALCOHOLISM ON YOUR HEALTH\nLiver disease. Heavy drinking can cause increased fat in the liver (hepatic steatosis), inflammation of the liver (alcoholic hepatitis), and over time, irreversible destruction and scarring of liver tissue (cirrhosis)\nDigestive problems. Heavy drinking can result in inflammation of the stomach lining (gastritis), as well as stomach and esophageal ulcers. It also can interfere with absorption of B vitamins and other nutrients. Heavy drinking can damage your pancreas or lead to inflammation of the pancreas (pancreatitis)\nHeart problems. Excessive drinking can lead to high blood pressure and increases your risk of an enlarged heart, heart failure or stroke. Even a single binge can cause a serious heart arrhythmia called atrial fibrillation*\nDiabetes complications. Alcohol interferes with the release of glucose from your liver and can increase the risk of low blood sugar (hypoglycemia). This is dangerous if you have diabetes and are already taking insulin to lower your blood sugar level*\nSexual function and menstruation issues.Excessive drinking can cause erectile dysfunction in men. In women, it can interrupt menstruation*\nEye problems. Over time, heavy drinking can cause involuntary rapid eye movement (nystagmus) as well as weakness and paralysis of your eye muscles due to a deficiency of vitamin B-1 (thiamine). A thiamine deficiency also can be associated with other brain changes, such as irreversible dementia, if not promptly treated*\nBirth defects. Alcohol use during pregnancy may cause miscarriage. It also may cause fetal alcohol syndrome, resulting in giving birth to a child who has physical and developmental problems that last a lifetime*\nBone damage. Alcohol may interfere with the production of new bone. This bone loss can lead to thinning bones (osteoporosis) and an increased risk of fractures. Alcohol can also damage bone marrow, which makes blood cells. This can cause a low platelet count, which may result in bruising and bleeding.*\nNeurological complications. Excessive drinking can affect your nervous system, causing numbness and pain in your hands and feet, disordered thinking, dementia, and short-term memory loss.*\nWeakened immune system. Excessive alcohol use can make it harder for your body to resist disease, increasing your risk of various illnesses, especially pneumonia.*\nIncreased risk of cancer:.

        "title": "Business Tips From People Who Know How to Succeed",
        "raw_content": "Being a successful business owner takes drive, determination, patience, and the ability to thrive in the midst of failure. So how does one get to that point? Many successful entrepreneurs share similar characteristics that allow them to thrive in the sometimes challenging world of business. Among many of those traits is to have a vision, take risks, be flexible, and know your customers. These business tips can help motivate you and drive your business goals forward for greater success.\nA business tip many successful entrepreneurs may agree on is to have a clear vision. In business, just as in life, having a vision is key in knowing where you want to go, how to get there, and how to stay on track. You probably know that things rarely, if ever, happen as planned. It\u2019s easy to lose determination when failures occur, but having a vision allows you to stay focused when the stress becomes overwhelming.\nA second business tip is to take risks and be flexible. Success of any kind will almost always involve risk. Once you have those visions and goals, you should make the attempts, put yourself (or your product) in front of customers, and play all your cards. More often than not, people tend to shy away from risk, which is why it\u2019s even more important to do the opposite in business. Successful entrepreneurs are the ones who take the risks their competitors aren\u2019t willing to take. With risks and failures also comes a need for flexibility. When things don\u2019t work out the way you plan, being flexible will allow you to take note of what needs to be done, and what you need to let go of.\nAnother essential business tip is to know your customers. This doesn\u2019t just mean knowing who buys from you or uses your services\u2014It\u2019s knowing how to nurture the relationship you have with your customers, so that you know what their needs are. While complaints may seem like a negative, a good business owner knows that paying attention to customer complaints and comments is a great way to know how you\u2019re doing, and what you can do to strengthen that relationship.\nIn brief, whether it\u2019s to have a vision, taking risks, being flexible, or knowing your customers, what you need to make these possible is to believe in yourself. When you believe in what you do, it will allow you to work through the difficult times, reflect on the changes, and celebrate the successes.",

We\u2019ve earned our reputation for being tough, aggressive and fair with every case we take on. And our \u201cpeople first\u201d philosophy means that we use every means available to fight for our clients, treating each person we represent with compassion and respect.\nWhen you Need to Hire a Car \u2026\nWhen You Need to Hire a Skilled \u2026\nGerling Law\u2019s Core Values\nFor more than five decades, we have been guided by a set of Core Values that extends to all facets of our legal practice. These Core Values are based on maintaining trust and integrity in every case we work on as well as providing the peace of mind a client needs at their greatest time of need. Our Core Values include:\nPurpose. We exist to make people\u2019s lives better by providing aggressive, high quality legal representation.\nClients. We are grateful and motivated to serve our clients, and our goal is to treat each one with respect and sincerity.\nWork Environment. We are respectful and loyal to each other, creating a work environment that nurtures knowledge, imagination, skills, teamwork, integrity and optimism.\nPerformance. We are dedicated to producing a quality product, providing quality service and communications, and maintaining the quality of our relationships.\nIntegrity. We remain committed to the highest levels of ethics, integrity and civility.\nCommunity. We believe that we have a responsibility to the residents and businesses of Owensboro to provide the highest caliber of legal services to help maintain the vitality of the community.\nProfit. We believe in operating an efficient business that maintains an acceptable degree of profitability so that we can continue to serve the people of Owensboro and its surrounding Kentucky communities.\n\u201cI had trouble with the insurance company; I was trying \u2026\n\u201cI was really disappointed in how my insurance company dealt \u2026\n\u201cI called my insurance company to start my claim \u2013 \u2026\nIf You Are the Victim of an Accident in Owensboro, Contact Us to Discuss Your Options\nAt Gerling Law, we focus on providing quality legal services for Owensboro residents who have been injured due to the negligence of others. By practicing in this area of law, we are able to focus our efforts, experience, and due diligence to create aggressive strategies that will maximize our clients chances of recovering the maximum amount possible for pain and suffering, lost wages, medical bills and other related damages.\nWe are recognized as one of Owensboro\u2019s top personal injury law firms for many reasons. Because the key to winning any personal injury case is proving the defendant\u2019s negligence, we take great care to work through each step of this process. Our goal is to build a solid case that shows that the defendant had a responsibility to provide a reasonable amount of care in a particular situation, that they breached that care, and that our client suffered injuries or damages as a result. This applies in every instance, whether the case involves a drunk driver who ran a red light, a manufacturer who built and distributed a faulty product, or a property owner who did not properly maintain common areas such as walkways and stair wells, resulting in a slip, trip or fall situation.\nWe Are Skilled Car Accident and Truck Accident Attorneys\nBecause car accidents and truck accidents are two of the most common forms of personal injury cases, we are especially adept and experienced in dealing with these kinds of cases. Our car accident attorneys and our truck accident attorneys are experienced in dealing with the unique aspects of both and we are ready to use this experience to benefit you.\nCar and truck accident cases mean dealing with large insurance companies on a regular basis. With our many years of experience, we fully understand the thought processes, methodologies, tactics and strategies that they employ to try and reduce the amount they will pay. Armed with this knowledge, we are more than ready to effectively negotiate with insurance companies and their attorneys on behalf of our clients. And in those cases where a settlement is not possible, we are ready to use our substantial resources to go to trial and win our client\u2019s case.\nOur Goal Is to Protect Your Interests\nGerling Law accident attorneys know that the key to winning a case is proving that a direct relationship exists between the defendant\u2019s negligence and our client\u2019s injuries. Once we are able to prove this link, we can apply our experience to proving the amount of damages that may be involved. Because most cases never reach the actual trial phase, we place great emphasis on being skilled negotiators, working with opposing attorneys to reach settlements that are fair and just, and protecting our clients interests to the highest degree possible.\nIf you or a family member have been injured due to the negligence of another person or company, contact us immediately to see how we can help you.\nGerling Law serves clients in Owensboro and other nearby Kentucky communities.\n2645 Frederica Street, Suite 200-A,Owensboro, KY 42301\n\u00a9 2017 by CarAccidentPersonalInjuryOwensboro.com.

        "raw_content": "How to Become a Successful Insurance Agent in Property & Casualty\nJay P. Whickson\nElevator Installers ... $78,890/year /> 2012-2016 +6.8%\nA successful property and casualty agent works too hard for their money initially and hardly at all once established. Most P&C agents would disagree with the last part of the statement, since there's always service work to do once you establish a book of business. Property and casualty agents receive a first year commission on premiums they collect when they sell a policy. Unlike life representatives, it's not that large, but they get it each time the customer renews. This means your income continues to grow every year you're in the business.\nExpect to work long hours and late hours. Since you need to see people when they are at home, you do most of your business after the normal office hours. Initially, you'll put in 60-hour weeks because there's always something you need to do, whether its maintaining records, prospecting, handling claims or selling. Often, seasoned reps have service personnel who handle much of the service work in later years.\nCalculate your budget. Know how much money you need to live. While it's important to help individuals and do a good job, if you don't have the income to keep going, you're not a help to anyone. Consider your family's needs and find out the amount of premium you need for the commissions to pay your bills. Remember that your income improves every six months to a year, depending on the type of premium payment your client makes. Income for P&C agents grows with time. You get a commission not just for the initial sale of the policy but also each time the client pays a premium. That means every six months you get a raise, because you have renewals. This also should remind you to keep in touch with existing clients every six months.\nKeep excellent records. This doesn't just mean client records, which are important, but also personal sales records. You need to find out how many contacts you have to make to secure an appointment and how many appointments you need for a sale. Also, note the average income from each sale. This helps to plan for the number of contacts.\nKeep up with the changes in your industry. Continuing education is important in any field, but especially in insurance. It's important to also know the increasing costs of cars and claims so you can keep your clients adequately covered. Take a continuing education class every six months. Most of the time, your state insurance department will require that you earn a certain number of CE hours in order to renew your license.\nAsk for referrals. If you have satisfied clients (and if not, you should find out why), ask for referrals. Many representatives have postcards made with an introduction about themselves that they ask the client to sign. They send the postcards to the referrals before they call.\nParticipate in public service activities. There's no better way to meet other people than helping out at a charity fundraiser. It's beneficial for your career and for your community. The more people you meet, the more prospects you'll have. Choose functions for charities you truly want to help.\nKeep consistent work hours. One of the biggest problems with any type of sales position is often you're the boss of your time. Frequently, that boss is far too lenient. Consistency works. Even when it looks darkest and sales are few and far between, you'll feel better working. Eventually, that dry spell will disappear and you'll have ample sales from all the groundwork you did getting through it.\nInsurance Department Website Locations\nHow to Answer the Interview Question \"How Do You Improve Sales in a Business?\"\nWhat Is the Average Commission for a Life Insurance Agent?\nJob Description of a Reinsurance Officer\nThe Job Description of Corporate Sales\nP., Jay. \"How to Become a Successful Insurance Agent in Property & Casualty.\" , https://careertrend.com/how-5091068-become-insurance-agent-property-casualty.html. 05 July 2017.\nP., Jay.

We sincerely believe that the members of the third group are real gourmets. In red girls there is something special: a crazy charisma, a sly look, a desire for adventure \u2026 of course, no man can resist such a temptation.\nIf you once had a night with a red-haired girl, you know what we\u2019re talking about. Nature not in vain marked these beauties with a fiery color \u2013 they are as passionate and restless as the flame. But even among them, there are those whose temperament outshines other red-haired girls. Of course, we are talking about the hottest redhead pornstars, about those whose sexuality cannot be kept \u201cunder lock and key\u201d. In our list, you will find the best hot redhead pornstars from all over the world!\nDani Jensen loves to pretend that she is an angel. Despite the fiery red hair that shows her as a real beast, she has enough talent and charisma to convince you that she is an angel descended from heaven. To do this, she has everything \u2013 a charming smile, the look of a modest, excellent pupil (who can be turned into a cunning temptress who has only hardcore sex on her mind) and a hypnotizing timbre of the voice. Everyone will be able to find a video of Dani Jensen to their liking.\nThe girl\u2019s business card is slow, sensual video, smoothly turning into a more rigid, relaxed action. Watching the video with her participation is a real test of endurance even for the most sophisticated porn gourmets. We recommend beginning an acquaintance with the world of the top redhead pornstars with her.\nGia Dimarco, a constant member of any top list of redhead pornstars, was born in 1986, in California. This girl came to our world in order to conquer it. And this is not an unfounded statement \u2013 the guys from the studio Brazzers, who are actively working with Gia Dimarco, are ready to sign under each of our words. It\u2019s not for nothing that she gets offers for shooting only in the best, exclusive videos. Gia Dimarco behaves like a real rebel, but if she sees a worthy dick, she is quite ready to obey. And if there are two dicks in front of her, then this is even better!\nGia Dimarco\u2019s favorite genres are a threesome and anal. But most of all the girl likes when the director combines both. The appearance of Gia Dimarco will come to taste to absolutely everyone \u2013 she has perfect boobs, a round ass, a narrow waist and sensual facial features. In combination with fiery red hair, it all looks just very cool. Her animal magnetism and primitive sexuality literally break through the screen, in order to grab you and drag you into the world of the most unbridled and desperate sexual pleasures.\nIf you need to find something special in our top 10 redhead pornstars list, check this girl out!\nMackenzee Pierce, one of the best redhead pornstars, was born on March 10, 1988, in Arizona, USA. The girl became famous as a porn actress, model, and stripper.\nMackenzee Pierce has very long, fiery-red hair. It reaches her appetizing, round and elastic ass. This picture was driving crazy men around the world for many years \u2013 until Mackenzee Pierce decided to quit her career. Despite the fact that she no longer acts in porn, we must talk about this queen of anal and threesome.\nThe favorite position of one of the sexiest redhead pornstars, Mackenzee Pierce, is doggy style.

        "raw_content": "Master of Arts in Teaching (MAT) in Special Education\nWalden\u2019s Minnesota state-approved* teacher preparation program with a Master of Arts in Teaching (MAT) option is designed to prepare candidates to become P\u201312 classroom teachers with the knowledge, skills, and dispositions of exemplary educators who work in diverse settings. The Richard W. Riley College of Education and Leadership is committed to individuals who seek to become skilled classroom teachers and to providing them developmentally appropriate, student-centered learning experiences that build their students\u2019 knowledge and skills.\n* Note to all Pennsylvania residents: Walden University\u2019s teacher preparation program is approved by the Minnesota Professional Educator Licensing and Standards Board as leading to licensure. Because this program is not reviewed by the Pennsylvania Department of Education, candidates are instructed to apply for Pennsylvania certification as out-of-state graduates of a teacher preparation program.\n* Prospective Alabama students: State Authorization to provide a program related to the preparation of teachers or other P\u201312 school/system personnel does not indicate eligibility for an Alabama professional educator or professional leadership certificate. Applicants who complete an educator preparation program at a non-Alabama institution must apply for an Alabama professional educator or professional leadership certificate through the Alabama Certificate Reciprocity Approach. Current requirements may be found at www.alsde.edu.\n* Note to all Washington residents: Eligibility for initial educator certification in Washington is based on completion of a state-approved educator preparation program. This program is approved in Minnesota and is authorized for field placements in Washington by the Professional Educators Standards Board. Even though you may be residing in Washington while in this program, your application for educator certification in Washington will be processed as an out-of-state application. Go to https://www.pesb.wa.gov/educator-pathways/becoming-a-washington-educator/out-of-state-license-transfers/ for more information. Teachers are advised to contact their individual school districts as to whether this program may qualify for teacher advancement.\nAt the end of this program, teachers are able to:\nUnderstand the central concepts, tools of inquiry, and structures of the discipline he or she teaches and can create learning experiences that make these aspects of subject matter meaningful for students.\nUnderstand how children learn and develop, and can provide learning opportunities that support a child\u2019s intellectual, social, and personal development.\nUnderstand and use a variety of instructional strategies to encourage student development of critical-thinking, problem-solving, and performance skills.\nUnderstand and use formal and informal assessment strategies to evaluate and ensure the continuous intellectual, social, and physical development of the learner.\nBe a reflective practitioner who continually evaluates the effects of his or her choices and actions on others (students, parents, and other professionals in the learning community) and who actively seeks out opportunities to grow professionally.\nUse knowledge of effective verbal, nonverbal, and media communication techniques to foster active inquiry, collaboration, and supportive interaction in the classroom.\nFoster relationships with school colleagues, parents, and agencies in the larger community to support students\u2019 learning and well-being.\nUnderstand how students differ in their approaches to learning and create instructional opportunities that are adapted to diverse learners.\nUse an understanding of individual and group motivation and behavior to create a learning environment that encourages positive social interaction, active engagement in learning, and self-motivation.\nSpecial Education (K\u2013Age 21) - Master of Arts in Teaching (MAT)\nDemonstration teaching (4 sem. cr.)\nField experience**: a minimum of 105 hours of classroom-based and virtual experiences in conjunction with coursework; 12 weeks of full-time demonstration teaching\n**Note: In addition to Walden\u2019s general technical requirements, candidates must have access to technology (i.e., scanner or camera) that allows them to electronically submit signed documents verifying their field experience hours.\nThe teacher preparation program with a Master of Arts in Teaching is offered on a semester system. Each specialization has a planned sequence of courses. An ePortfolio based on the program\u2019s identified outcomes must be submitted and approved during the final course of the program.\nPlease see the course sequence chart on each specialization page.\nWalden University is approved by the Minnesota Professional Educator Licensing and Standards Board to offer the Master of Arts in Teaching which leads to Minnesota Tier 3 license in special education (K\u201321). As part of the program and licensing requirements, candidates must pass the required exams for Minnesota licensure adopted by the Minnesota Professional Educator and Licensing Standards Board, undergo a Minnesota background check, and complete any other Minnesota Professional Educator and Licensing Standards Board requirements beyond completion of Walden\u2019s state-approved teacher preparation program. Candidates are responsible for completing any other Minnesota requirements beyond Walden\u2019s state-approved program, and Minnesota Department of Education is solely responsible for reviewing applications and issuing licenses.\nIndividuals interested in pursuing teacher licensure in states other than Minnesota may qualify for a comparable license by virtue of completing the Walden Minnesota-approved teacher preparation program; however, individuals must review their state\u2019s teacher licensing regulations to ensure the program meets all requirements, paying particular attention to any requirements specific to their state. Graduates in some states will be eligible for licensure based on completion of a state-approved program, where they can apply directly to their state educator board (\u201cdirect apply\u201d). Other states have a separate application and process for someone completing an out-of-state approved preparation program (\u201clicense-in-hand pathway\u201d), where in order for a graduate to be eligible for licensure or certification, he/she must first obtain a license in an approved state (Minnesota) prior to applying for licensure in his/her state of residence.\nProspective students must research their state licensure requirements to determine (1) if they are required to complete a state-approved licensure program to be eligible to apply directly to their state board, (2) if they need to obtain a license from the state where the program has been approved (Minnesota) prior to applying in the state they reside, and (3) any additional requirements the student will need to complete prior to their state granting the license. Students residing in Minnesota are eligible to apply directly to their state board, as Walden\u2019s Master of Arts in Teaching program is approved by the Minnesota Professional Educator and Licensing Standards Board. Additionally, prospective students are advised if they choose to relocate to carefully review, evaluate and understand the requirements of the applicable licensure board in the state in which they intend to relocate.\nIndividuals enrolling internationally must be supervised by a teacher with a valid U.S. state teaching license, in a school that follows a U.S.-based curriculum at the appropriate grade level for the license. Prospective students must check that the program is accepted for teaching credential in the state they intend to apply for licensure.\nWalden enrollment advisors can provide general information on state licensure; however, it remains the individual\u2019s responsibility to understand and comply with all licensure requirements in the state they reside. Walden makes no representation or guarantee that completion of Walden coursework or programs will permit an individual to obtain state licensure or endorsement.\nWalden is committed to providing the information you need to make an informed decision about where you pursue your education.

        "raw_content": "flower/buds\nJudge to decide Florida ban on smokable medical marijuana.\nA Florida judge will soon decide if patients approved to use medical marijuana will be allowed to smoke it.\nLeon County circuit court Judge Karen Gievers heard testimony Wednesday from two women with terminal illnesses challenging the state\u2019s ban on smoking cannabis.\nVoters approved a constitutional amendment in 2016 allowing the use of medical marijuana. The only mention of smoking in the amendment\u2019s language and in an intent document during the 2016 campaign was that the Legislature and local governments could restrict it in public places.\n\u201cI don\u2019t think you need to be too much of a legal scholar to understand it means it is allowed in other places,\u201d said John Morgan, who led the effort to get the constitutional amendment passed.\nThe Legislature last year passed enacting laws that banned the sale of smoking products, saying that poses a health risk. The laws, which were signed by Florida Gov. Rick Scott in June, state that patients can use cannabis through vaping and in food, oils, sprays and tinctures.\nJon Mills, who represented the plaintiffs, said in closing arguments that the intent document clearly laid out that private use was not illegal.\n\u201cIt does allow regulation of amount but not type. Clearly smokable marijuana is a type of marijuana,\u201d he said.\nDeputy Solicitor General Rachel Nordby, representing the state, deemed the law was constitutional because the Legislature has a role in policing public health concerns.\n\u201cThis case is not about what is or what is not marijuana. This case is about is the permissible plain uses of marijuana,\u201d she said.\nOne of the women who appeared was Cathy Jordan, who has had ALS since 1986. Jordan told the judge that smoking the plant is the only effective way for her to use it as medicine.\nJordan testified that smoking it dries her excess saliva, increases her appetite and works as a muscle relaxer.\n\u201cThe edibles cause terrible stomach pain and vaping makes me gag,\u201d she said. \u201cSmoking makes my life a lot more bearable.\u201d\nJordan said that when she was diagnosed with ALS \u2014 amyotrophic lateral sclerosis \u2014 doctors thought she would live only three to five more years. She credits smoking with helping to prolong her life and has been supported by her physicians.\n\u201cToday we saw a woman literally fighting for her life hoping to smoke medical marijuana \u2026 ,\u201d Morgan said. \u201cThe state of Florida is in fact trying to take her life and so many like her. If I was (Attorney General) Pam Bondi and Rick Scott I\u2019d take a look at this video and say enough is enough. Let\u2019s stop the politics and let these people live.\u201d",

Attendees could speak with a seasoned professional or new apprentice and learn what it takes to have a life-long career in an ever-evolving, challenging and incredibly rewarding industry.\nHigh school students, their parents and educators, and job-seekers were encouraged to explore dozens of construction-related exhibits and demonstrations and learn about the many professions in the industry, the salaries, benefits, stackable credentials and educational opportunities. Seeing individuals from all walks of life, from veterans to ex-offenders, side-by-side securing sheetrock, laying brick or putting together scaffolding, was truly indicative of the construction industry\u2019s diversity.\nWith nearly 2,000 attendees, this successful event was made possible by the commitment of the union construction trades, the associations and labor-management cooperatives with which they work, and local, state and federal agencies that supported our efforts.",

        "raw_content": "New Yorker Magazine Measures Movie Franchise Profitability\nTake a look at the release schedule this summer and you might begin to notice a trend; \u201cHangover III\u201d, \u201cIron Man 3\u201d, \u201cStar Trek Into Darkness\u201d, \u201cMonsters University\u201d, \u201cGrown Ups 2\u201d, \u201cDespicable Me 2\u201d \u201cRED 2\u201d, etc. The number of sequels being pumped out by Hollywood studios is staggering. However are any of these franchises actually profitable?\nLast week the New Yorker took a stab at answering that question by publishing an interactive info graphic which displays the financial results of each individual film in 26 different movie franchises. By using adjusted total ticket sales, the magazine was able to compare each franchise by the adjusted gross of each title in the series. As the New Yorker writes\n\u201c\u2026with an eye to the bottom line, we created a third ranking that takes a basic view of profitability by calculating the franchise gross as a percentage of the adjusted budge\u2026\u201d\nThat means visitors can shuffle the order of titles within each franchise, as well as the franchises themselves by gross, per-movie-gross and profitability. This exercise provided answers to age old questions such as whether \u201cStar Wars\u201d or \u201cStar Trek\u201d has earned more.\nHave a whack at the chart for yourself and see what lessons you can learn.\nTags: Box Office, Star Trek, Franchises, \"Star Wars\", Infographics",

Oh and of course, it was the year of Andy Gibb.\nMicrosoft COBOL-80, which conforms to the 1974 ANSI standards for 8080, Z80, and 8085 microprocessor systems, is announced.\nMicrosoft establishes its first international sales office in Japan, ASCII Microsoft.\nMicrosoft announces the availability of Microsoft EDIT-80, a random access, line oriented text editor for 8080 and Z-80 systems. EDIT-80 is the first microcomputer editor with random line access to floppy disk files.\nMicrosoft announces Microsoft Macro-80 for 8080; Z-80. The 14K assembler is the fastest macro assembler currently on the microcomputer market, assembling over 1000 lines per minute.\nMicrosoft announces the availability of Microsoft FORTRAN-80 Compiler for TRS-80.\nMicrosoft's year-end sales exceed $1 million at $1,355,655. There are 13 employees.\nThe Albuquerque office's Coca Cola bill for Calendar Year 1978 totals $566.50.\nIntel introduces the 8086 chip, the start of the 16-bit microprocessor family.\nSenator Al Gore of Tennessee coins the phrase \u201cinformation highway\u201d in a meeting with computer industry officials.\nLouise Brown, the first baby to be conceived outside the human body, is born to British parents.\nThe United States bans chlorofluorocarbons as spray propellants because they damage the ozone layer.\nShadow Dancing, by Andy Gibb, tops the Billboard charts for the year.\nBill Gates, Paul Allen, The History of Microsoft\nDCMonkey\nI'm enjoying this series, but could you pleeeeaase fix the aspect ratio on the non-widescreen content? Pleeese? Pretty Pleeeese?\nI'd rather not have to see another 31 episodes of Bill with a fat head.\nI've already given up on that. Guess whoever edits these can't see the difference.\nIf we put asside Bill Gates' inflated cranium, that was still another great C9 video\nThe modern parts are widescreen and the 90s footage of Bill is not so it got stretched. To fix it the entire video would have to be re-edited and even though the incorrect aspect ratio annoys me too I don't think they're going to bother fixing it.\nI wouldn't be so sure... Tina is well aware of this issue and I think she's planning on fixing it (you are right in that it will require work).\nNow, back to the content of the show...\nYeah, I guess the original project could be opened and the old footage could be squished back to 4:3 then the whole thing re-rendered. Glad to hear she's planning on fixing it because the videos are too good to have something like that messing them up.\nObserve how Bill Gates gulps before mentioning Cobol.\nEdit: This wasn't meant to be a reply.\nI am so on this people. As we speak (type) I am working on the Bill Gates cranium issue. Starting next week I think we will be good to go. If you guys think 1979 works as far as aspect ratio goes than I can use that as my template going forward. Again, thank you for your patience.\nYeah we would not want some future historian to find the videos and start a theory that bill was some kind of mutant with an ugly head.... picture some team 10,000 years down the road looking at it and wondering if they had his genes etc....\nor if we all used to have strange heads in the 20th and 21st century....\nAgain a great video! For all of you out there, check the movie \"\u00b4Pirates of silicon valley\". It tells the story of Steve Jobs and Bill Gates in the early days, very funny ...\nI would like to add one last thing to the 16:9 and 4:3 aspect ratio discussion. If you fix the next show, it would be great to have a real 16:9 video, not a 4:3 video that contains a 16:9 video (showing Tina) that contains 4:3 videos (showing Bill Gates).",

        "raw_content": "NEW TUNE: \u201cPerfume\u201d \u2013 Natalie Shay\nNatalie Shay is a 19 year old multi award-winning, indie pop/rock artist from North London. Deemed as one of London\u2019s hottest emerging talents and having already acquired an impressive array of awards, Shay is ready to launch herself into the forefront of the industry, with her highly anticipated upcoming release.\nAs a classically trained guitarist from the age of five, Shay\u2019s outstanding talents soon found herself accepted into the prestigious BRIT school, known for producing such prodigies as Adele, Jessie J and Katy B. Shay credits her time at the famed BRIT school for encouraging her independence, \u201cIt allows student\u2019s to develop creatively and socially so that they are prepared for the world once they graduate\u201d, explains Shay.\nShay\u2019s experience at the BRIT school propelled her into a successful solo career, performing to sold-out audiences at some of London\u2019s most iconic venues, including The Roundhouse, Ronnie Scotts and Brooklyn Bowl, O2. Her achievements to date include her long list of awards from \u2018Best Undiscovered Talent\u2019 London Music Award, Winner of The Guardian\u2019s Music Award and two time winner of the Mayor of London Gigs. Shay has also had the privilege of sharing the stage with artists such as Soul II Soul, J P Cooper, Alex Francis and Sex Pistol, Glen Matlock.\nFollowing the success of her previous single \u2019This Feeling\u2019, which reached an impressive number 4 in the iTunes singer/songwriter charts, Shay is delivering audiences with the highly anticipated release entitled \u2018Perfume\u2019. Combining vibrant electronic instrumentation with 80\u2019s synth, the single is a infectious pop anthem which packs a punch with it\u2019s powerful melodies and youthful exuberance. \u201cI love how this track is so different from my others but is very self contained\u201d Shay reveals, \u201cI especially loved the use of using modular synths and other productional techniques to create a sound which is a mix of my live, real instrument sound and and a new productional identity\u201d. Co-written and recorded with Jonathan Vears (Imagine Dragons) and mixed by Pete Dowsett (The Vaccines), the single is brought to life through Shay\u2019s distinct indie pop sensibilities and prominent vocal harmonies. Thematically, \u2018Perfume\u2019 narrates the struggle of reaching a crossroads in a relationship and deciding which road to take.\nShay has found recent acclaim having performed at the world renown Royal Albert Hall, as the featured artist for BBC Radio London and undergoing her first UK tour, where her flawless and dynamic live sound has been catching industry attention. With an ever-dedicated fanbase, Natalie Shay is quickly becoming an artist to watch. \u2018Perfume\u2019 is due for release Friday June 15th.\nPrevious Previous post: NEW VISUAL: TIMSTERS releases multi-genre dreamcoat \u2018I Need To Know\u2019\nNext Next post: NEW TUNE:\u201dTING DUN\u201d BY OCEAN WISDOM FT.

Flagg of the United States Marine Corps was upset by the news. \u201cOf course Hanoi Jane was a huge traitor and one of the biggest bitches ever born. No one doubts that. Her actions in Vietnam got a lot of our men beaten, tortured, and killed. I\u2019m upset, however, but the use of the word favorite to describe her actions. How can you have a favorite criminal?\u201d\nMuch of the response to Jane Fonda\u2019s selection for the award, however, was positive.\nMembers of the Hollywood community came out in support of Ms. Fonda and lauded her on her latest accomplishment. Said one agent, \u201cthis is almost as significant as her seven Oscar nominations and two wins. Jane is such an accomplished woman and this just shows the diversity of her talents. I\u2019m ready to wet myself in adoration of her talents and achievements. She\u2019s always been such a huge star, and this is another achievement for her.\u201d\nKeith Olbermann of MSNBC (sometimes) stated that \u201cI\u2019m going to have to have this woman in my studio for a one on one, sit down interview. This is just fantastic! When a living legend is voted to something like this over people who have been dead for over 200 years and who appear in all of our history books, it just to shows how great and significant her acts were! I\u2019m honored and humbled just to be able to speak to her.\u201d\nPresident Barack Obama, in congratulating Fonda on her accomplishment said \u201cthis\u0085 is another\u0085 great American\u0085 in our history\u2026 who has succeeded\u0085 in her goals\u0085 and is a model\u0085 for us to follow\u0085 in our current wars.\u201d (Note: with the slow moving teleprompter and his stammering speech patterns, it took twenty minutes for him to deliver this sentence.)\nMichael Moore said that he plans to film his newest documentary about the sacrifices of this \u201cpoor little American girl from humble beginnings who made herself into somebody and triumphed over a bunch of malicious lowlife soldiers of a repressive military and government (even if the war was escalated by JFK).\u201d In a salute to her first Oscar nominated film, and in reference to her Vietnam War actions, he plans to call the movie \u201cThey Shoot Babies, Don\u2019t They?\u201d\nJane Fonda could not be reached for comment. A personal secretary said that she was tied up for the next few days. She said that her schedule included shopping at an Ikea store to get some things to decorate caves in Afghanistan. Afterwards, she was supposed to fly to North Korea to assist the son of Kim Jong IL in christening his new yacht.\n\u2190 A Right to Serve in the Military\nPost-War Effect on the United States \u2192\nOne thought on \u201cHanoi Jane\u201d\nThis country does not remember and as a result has perverted values when they admire people like her.

One thing is for sure that they have called for trouble by ganging up against me,\u201d she said.\nAsked if her \u201cManikarnika\u2026\u201d would have got more benefit if her colleagues from Bollywood would have promoted the film, Kangana said: \u201cI don\u2019t think promotions of my film by other actors will benefit my film. I have already won three national awards and at the age of 31, I have become a filmmaker so who are they to promote me? If they get successful in promoting themselves then, it will be a huge thing for them.\u201d\nThe \u201cQueen\u201d actress strongly believes that the industry is ganging up against her as she spoke about nepotism in the Hindi film industry.\n\u201cI want to ask whether Rani Laxmibai is my aunt? She is the iconic figure of this country so, why are they behaving like this? It\u2019s just because I talked about nepotism. They all have ganged up against me asking me why I have talked about nepotism,\u201d Kangana said at the special screening of the film held for school children on February 7.\nShe added: \u201cIt\u2019s like a class full of students where the class of 60 students is ganging up against one student and they are constantly bullying him so, tell me how does it feel?\u201d\nThe 31-year-old actress, who had sparked the infamous debate by calling filmmaker Karan Johar a \u201cflagbearer of nepotism\u201d during her appearance on his chat show \u201cKoffee With Karan\u201d in 2017, labeled Bollywood celebrities as shameless.\n\u201cThey are shameless people and some of them are my grandfather\u2019s age. I don\u2019t want to work with them and I say this to them on their face but we have made this film based on Rani Laxmi bai for our future generation because she sacrificed her life for this land,\u201d said Kangana.\nShe added: \u201cToday only Kangana Ranaut is not living in a free country. All citizens of this country are living in a free country.\u201d\n\u2190 Unchanged New Zealand opt to bat in 2nd T20I\nAustralia ropes in Ponting as an assistant coach for World Cup \u2192\n\u0baa\u0bc6\u0ba3\u0bcd \u0b87\u0baf\u0b95\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bc1\u0ba8\u0bb0\u0bcd \u0bb2\u0bc0\u0ba9\u0bbe \u0bae\u0ba3\u0bbf\u0bae\u0bc7\u0b95\u0bb2\u0bc8 \u0bae\u0bc0\u0ba4\u0bc1 \u0baa\u0bcb\u0bb2\u0bc0\u0b9a\u0bbf\u0bb2\u0bcd \u0baa\u0bc1\u0b95\u0bbe\u0bb0\u0bcd \u0b85\u0bb3\u0bbf\u0ba4\u0bcd\u0ba4 \u0b87\u0baf\u0b95\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bc1\u0ba8\u0bb0\u0bcd \u0b9a\u0bc1\u0b9a\u0bbf \u0b95\u0ba3\u0bc7\u0b9a\u0ba9\u0bcd!",

        "raw_content": "Here\u2019s What Deloitte\u2019s CEO Told her Teenage Son About Robots\nThere\u2019s a vast array of opinions out there about how many human job functions will be assumed by robots\u2014and how many new roles they\u2019ll create.\nDeloitte CEO Cathy Engelbert is an optimist, at least when challenged on the issue by her 15-year-old son.\n\u201cMom, are robots going to take my job someday?,\u201d he asked, according to a post by Engelbert on LinkedIn.\nHe\u2019s not the only one concerned: A recent survey of people born in the 1980s and 1990s by the professional services firm found 40% saw automation posing a threat to their jobs, while 44% thought there would be less demand for their skills.\nSo what was Engelbert\u2019s response: \u201cDon\u2019t worry\u2014I\u2019ve never met a machine with courage and empathy.\u201d\n\u201cI BELIEVE THE FUTURE OF WORK MEANS COOPERATION BETWEEN HUMANS AND ROBOTS, MAKING US CO-BOTS.\u201d\nHer placating words ascribe to the commonly-held view that while artificial intelligence has advanced in leaps and bounds, humans are still miles away from creating replicate sentient beings.\nTo be sure, job-loss risk can largely come down to occupation. Robots will eliminate 6% jobs in the U.S. by 2021, mostly in transportation, logistics and customer service, according to a recent estimate by market research company Forester.\nThe big question is whether affected individuals will be able to make the transition to new occupations, via training and development. And whether enough new occupations will even exist to fill the gap.\nSalesforce CEO Mark Benioff has warned of a digital \u201crefugee\u201d crisis if education opportunities aren\u2019t made more abundant, though, like him, Engelbert is confident the replacement roles will be there to fill.\nJobs are made up of many tasks, so the nature of existing jobs will change and new careers will be created, Engelbert wrote. She went on to reference MIT economist David Autor, who observed that if you told a farmer in 1900 of the looming 95% reduction in farm employment, they wouldn\u2019t have predicted we would be developing apps instead.\n\u201cI believe that the future of work means cooperation between humans and the robots. Making us, in the world of my teen, co-bots,\u201d she said.",

        "raw_content": "Home/Nachwuchs/No energy transition without social inclusion \u2013 No climate action without climate justice\nBeing on the Climate-KIC Summer School for the fourth week now, I and 39 other European students heard the most inspirational speech during the journey this morning. Hans-J\u00fcrgen Cramer, with his huge experience in business, energy and entrepreneurship, gave us an unusual and interesting lesson about the German electricity market and on worldwide actions against climate change with inspiring examples of how innovation can help the climate and at the same time solve problems like hunger, health sanitation and education.\nEnergy transition in Germany and its major challenges\nHans-J\u00fcrgen Cramer, Entrepreneur and Climate-KIC consultant, former CEO of Climate-KIC Germany and former CEO of Vattenfall in Germany\nStarting with the energy market, in summary, the German government wants 80% of its energy to be produced from renewable sources by 2050. Biomass, wind, solar and water energy currently contribute about 27% of the country\u2019s electricity demand. The country is planning to shut down the last nuclear power plants by 2022 and also already started to shut down the first fossil fuel power plants. However, these changes have resulted in higher electricity bills, because private households and small and medium sized companies have to bear most of the energy transition costs. Another problem is the power grid capacity: Although Germany has made significant investments in wind and solar sources, the country faces a partial energy deficit because of insufficient transmission lines to carry wind power from the North Sea to the industrial centers in the south. And the country has to find a solution for a stable energy supply, because the sun is not always shining and the wind is not always blowing.\nSocial inclusion as a key factor for the right solutions\nTo solve the problem of the energy price, the proposal was announced to reform the clean energy subsidy system, which marks the most sweeping changes to support mechanisms for renewable energy in Germany since the country adopted feed-in tariffs in 1991. The tariffs guarantee renewable energy generators above market prices for the energy they produce. Only this made the boom for wind and solar energy in Germany possible. A new system based on tenders is tested right now, but it is uncertain, if it will be the right solution.\nCC BY-NC-ND: Windw\u00e4rts Energie GmbH / Photographer: Mark M\u00fchlhaus/attenzione\nWith solutions for increasing the grid capacity and balancing the fluctuating energy supply, the situation is similar. Germany is planning a huge infrastructure project to extend the electricity grid and is testing different opportunities to store energy. However, these projects are very challenging and there are different opinions about which is the right solution. Cost and finance is an important question for all of these projects. But often this is not the main challenge. It is rather a problem of mindset and acceptance in society.\nEnergy and environmental issues, which triggered the environmental movement in the 70\u2019s and 80\u2019s, were the most important factors for the development of renewable energies in Germany in the first place. So, how to deal with today\u2019s problems regarding the transition to a holistic renewable energy economy? Waiting for a \u201cvoila\u201d answer. But social inclusion still seems to play a key role. Solutions regarding electricity prices, grid extension and energy storage are all closely related to acceptance and mindset.\nThe most sustainable business ideas are all about climate justice\nSocial Inclusion also brings me to the most inspirational part of the talk, which was climate justice. I can say that it is my motivation to be on the Climate-KIC Journey working on green business ideas. A business model that tackles climate change and reduces social inequalities is by far the most sustainable and innovative venture, and for sure gives me more faith and power to keep chasing my own goals. Two very interesting examples were presented today: WTO (World Toilet Organization), which provides clean and safe toilets for vulnerable communities without access to improved sanitation, and the Coolar system, which provides cooling based on solar energy to preserve medicines for off-grid areas, especially in developing countries. What I am trying to say is that we should think more about how to include the poorest communities in the transition to a low carbon economy, and help them in climate adaptation, because they are the first to suffer from climate change. Energy transition and climate actions generally all add up to mitigating climate change, but if we at the same time directly improve the situation for people most effected, it is the best we can do. This is climate justice!\nAbout the Author: Juliana Miranda Mitkiewicz\nParticipant of the Climate-KIC summer school \"The Journey 2015\", enrolled in MIT programme at the University of Porto, PhD about Suatainable Energy Systems\nsolar panels 2.

        "raw_content": "UPDATE 1-Suncor cuts production guidance following power outage\n(Adds details on forecast, analyst estimates)\nJuly 25 (Reuters) - Suncor Energy Inc posted a quarterly profit that beat analyst expectations on Wednesday but cut the top end of its full-year production guidance following a power outage at its majority-owned Syncrude oil project.\nCanada's second-largest oil producer said that it would now produce 740,000 to 750,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day (boepd), down from the earlier outlook of between 740,000 and 780,000 boepd.\nSuncor said Syncrude's first coker returned to partial production in the second half of July, with a ramp up to full rates expected in September.\nThe Calgary, Alberta-based company said net income more than doubled to C$972 million ($745.6 million) or 60 Canadian cents per share in the second quarter ended June 30, from C$435 million or 26 Canadian cents per share a year earlier.\nThe company's operating profit, which excludes one-time items, jumped 22.4 percent to C$1.19 billion, or 73 Canadian cents per share in the quarter.\nAnalysts had predicted earnings of 67 Canadian cents per share, according to Thomson Reuters I/B/E/S.\nTotal upstream production rose 22.7 percent to 661,700 barrels of oil equivalent per day, helped by gains at its Fort Hills oil project which began production in January.

Quinn tended to the \u2018least of these\u2019 in U.S. newsrooms \u2192\nA sign posted outside the door of Pope Francis\u2019 office in the Domus Sanctae Marthae that reads \u201cNo whining\u201d (Photo courtesy Vatican Insider/La Stampa)\nVATICAN CITY (CNS) \u2014 Pope Francis left a not-so-subtle message outside his office in the Domus Sanctae Marthae residence: anyone who is thinking of making a fuss, leave your whining at the door.\nItalian journalist Andrea Tornielli published a photo on Vatican Insider of a sign posted on the pope\u2019s door with the words, \u201cNo whining.\u201d\nThe sign warns potential complainers that \u201coffenders are subject to a victim mentality\u201d that decreases one\u2019s sense of humor and ability to solve problems.\n\u201cThe penalty is doubled if the violation takes place in the presence of children. To get the best out of yourself, concentrate on your potential and not on your limitations. Stop complaining and take steps to improve your life,\u201d the sign reads.\nWhile it may seem like a serious request, the pope found the sign hilarious when it was given to him by Italian life coach and motivational speaker, Dr. Salvo Noe.\nPope Francis laughs after receiving a sign that reads \u201cNo whining\u201d from Dr. Salvo Noe after a June 14 general audience in St. Peter\u2019s Square. (Photo courtesy of http://www.noecom.it)\nOn his official website, Noe posted pictures of his brief encounter with the pope after a June 14 general audience in St. Peter\u2019s Square. One picture shows Pope Francis cracking up when presented with the sign.\n\u201cThe expression (Pope Francis) made when presented with the \u2018No whining\u2019 sign was beautiful,\u201d Noe wrote on his website.\nThe sign and a bracelet that reads \u201cStop complaining,\u201d are part of promotional campaign for his new book of the same name.\nAccording to Tornielli, the pope said he told Noe he \u201cwould put it outside my office door where I receive people.\u201d True to his word, the pope reportedly showed an elderly priest who was visiting the sign\u2019s humorous warning to bellyachers. The priest asked and received permission form the pope to share the picture.\nThe pope has on several occasions warned about the more serious repercussions of complaining which can blind people\u2019s view of Jesus\u2019 presence in tough situations.\nCelebrating morning Mass April 3 with staff members from the Domus Romana Sacerdotalis, a nearby residence and guesthouse for clergy, the pope said that \u201cmany times when difficult things happen, including when we are visited by the cross, we run the risk of closing ourselves off in complaints.\u201d\nComplaining and griping \u2014 about others and about things in one\u2019s own life \u2014 are harmful, he said, \u201cbecause it dashes hope. Don\u2019t get into this game of a life of complaints.\u201d\nHowever, the pope has also said that \u201ccomplaining to God\u201d in moments of doubt and fear \u2014 like Abraham did\u2013 can be a form of prayer that requires the courage to hope beyond all hope.\n\u201cI won\u2019t say that Abraham loses patience, but he complains to the Lord. This is what we learn from our father Abraham: complaining to the Lord is a form of prayer,\u201d the pope said Dec. 28 during his weekly general audience.\n\u201cSometimes I hear confessions where people say, \u2018I complained to the Lord.\u2019 But no. (Continue) to complain; he is a father and this is a form of prayer. Complain to the Lord, this is good.\u201d\n2 Responses to Some cheese with your \u2018whine\u2019: Pope \u2018establishes\u2019 complaint-free zone\nThe Overlord Bear says:\nReblogged this on The Overlord Bear's Den and commented:\nThere are problems, yeah, but there are solutions as well. It\u2019s something that even I myself forgot today, too, hahaha\u2026Anyway, thank God very much for the lessons, indeed\u2026 ^_^\nmanniep says:\nFrank will go down in history as a great pastor.",

        "raw_content": "CFT 2018 Preseason Previews: The Big Ten\nBy Kevin McGuireAug 28, 2018, 10:20 AM EST\nFor the first time in the brief history of the College Football Playoff, the Big Ten found itself without a playoff representative last season. But in 2018, the conference appears to be stocked with teams worthy of being on the playoff radar as the season begins and there are a handful of programs in the early stages of turning things around and growing with fresh new leadership over the past couple of seasons. Whoever comes out on top of the Big Ten will certainly have earned it given the road any school will have to travel to Indianapolis for the Big Ten championship game, but will it end up being enough to justify waving the Big Ten flag in the College Football Playoff?\nOhio State has made the most trips to the playoff among Big Ten programs, including winning the inaugural College Football Playoff national championship, but the season begins with a dark cloud flying above Ohio Stadium with head coach Urban Meyer serving a three-game suspension. Fortunately, Ohio State should be in good position to weather the storm thanks to young offensive stars like J.K. Dobbins running the ball and Dwayne Haskins anointed as the starting quarterback. But it will be the defense, led by Nick Bosa and Dre\u2019Mont Jones on the defensive line, that carries Ohio State early on, including a road trip to Arlington to play TCU. Ohio State\u2019s playoff bubble could hinge on the September schedule with the TCU game and a road trip to Penn State at the end of September.\nPenn State was maddeningly close to making the playoff last year, but losing two games by a combined four points in back-to-back weeks leaves the football program hungry for more. And with Ohio State and Michigan State each coming to Happy Valley early in Big Ten play, James Franklin\u2018s Nittany Lions have a chance to make some noise early on despite a significant amount of turnover on defense and key losses on the offense. Despite the changes, having the Big Ten\u2019s top quarterback in Trace McSorley should allow for some smooth transition while the rest of the pieces come together. Miles Sanders will not be Saquon Barkley, but he may not have to be running the football. Penn State\u2019s best offensive line depth in years should be noticeable and a home schedule that also brings Wisconsin to Beaver Stadium puts Penn State in position to make a playoff case of their own.\nElsewhere in a stacked East Division is, of course, Jim Harbaugh at Michigan. Harbaugh may have the Big Ten\u2019s top defense with players like Rashan Gary and Chase Winovich on the ends of the line and Lavert Hill playing corner. and the hope is transfer quarterback Shea Patterson will be a dramatic improvement for the entire offense. An early trip to Notre Dame should be a good litmus test for what the Wolverines will do this season. Meanwhile, Michigan State will continue to chug along and be a factor in the East race with 19 starters back from last year\u2019s team.\nWisconsin has become the easy pick in the West Division, and they are a popular pick once again this season as the most reliable program in the West. But they are not without some potential hurdles as well. A challenging road schedule (Iowa, Michigan, Northwestern, Penn State\u2026 Purdue?) and just three returning starters on defense to go with questionable quarterback consistency from Alex Hornibrook is a lot to counter-balance the expected strong running game led by a monster offensive line paving the way for sophomore running back Jonathan Taylor, a popular preseason Heisman Trophy favorite. The West is littered with programs in rebuilding modes like Minnesota, Purdue and now Nebraska with Scott Frost, but Northwestern is always ready to pull an upset or two and this could just be one of those years where Iowa makes a run.\nBIG TEN EAST DIVISION\nBIG TEN WEST DIVISION\nTags: Alex Hornibrook, Chase Winovich, Dre'Mont Jones, Dwayne Haskins, James Franklin, Jim Harbaugh, JK Dobbins, Jonathan Taylor, Lavert Hill, Nick Bosa, Rashan Gary, Scott Frost, Shea Patterson, Trace McSorley, Urban Meyer",

        "raw_content": "How To Make The Most Of Your Free Time (With The Kids)\nWhen it comes to spending quality time with your children, it can be hard. If you spend most of your time working, you need to ensure that you have some time for your kids too. When you have young kids, it is vital that you spend as much time with them as possible. If you don\u2019t, you will find that you miss some of their crucial childhood moments. When you get some free time, here is how you can make the most of it with your kids.\nStart the day early\nWhen the weekend comes, you might find it tempting to lie in and waste the day in bed. Sure, it might feel nice to have a little extra sleep, but it is a waste of time. Instead, you should make sure that you get up early and start the day. Most young children wake up early, because they go to bed early. If you find it difficult to get up, get yourself an espresso. Look at these Better Espresso Machines Reviews online and choose a gadget to suit your home. The earlier you get up, the more time you will have with your kids.\nGet your little ones to make breakfast\nWhile you are sipping on your hot java, it is time to get your children involved in making breakfast. If you have young children, it is never too soon to start teaching them some basic cooking skills. Ask your kids to make breakfast for your and your partner. They will love that you involve them in the running of the house, and it is a fantastic way to spend some time with them.\nAsk your kids what they want to do\nBefore you start the day, you need to figure out what to do. Ask your children to make a list of activities that they would enjoy. Once they have done that, you can see what is viable. Some great free activities include taking a bike ride and playing in the garden. When you are deciding what to do, you need to keep in mind your budget.\nSure, it is tempting to let your children sit in front of the TV all day long. These days, it feels as though modern technology rules every moment of our lives. If you want to spend some quality time with your kids, though, you need to switch everything off. For once, leave the tablets, gadgets and laptops at home. Go out together and enjoy each other\u2019s company.\nPlan out fun activities\nWhen you are planning activities for your kids, you should think about ways they can share your passions. For example, if you are like me and you love comic books, you should take them to a shop to buy some. When you share interests with your kids, you will find that it easy to bond with them. You should plan every hour of the day so that your children have loads of things to do. If you have young children, you will know they tire of things quickly. If you have loads of things for them to do, they will never find things boring.\nWhilst it is fantastic to spend loads of time with your family, sometimes you need a moment to yourself. When you plan your free day, make sure that you plan activities that your kids can do alone. That way, you can have breaks between games so that you can recoup.\nThe most important thing, you should remember, is that you need to enjoy yourself. Sure, you need to be an authoritative figure, but you can have fun as well. Relax and let your children see your fun side.",

If you already have an AIM screen name, you can use your existing screen name and password to log into AIM Mail. You'll automatically be given an AIM Mail address based on your screen name (example: yourscreenname@aim.com).\nWhen you first log into AOL Mail, the main part of the screen is taken up with scrolling headlines from AOL News. All of the actual e-mail functions are located on the left side of the screen.\nThere you'll see a list of icons and folders, the first being Inbox. Your inbox is where all of your received e-mails are stored. Click on the inbox icon and you'll be taken to the inbox view, a chronological list of received e-mails from newest to oldest.\nTo read an e-mail in the inbox, click on it, and it'll open. All of the basic actions for responding to and managing e-mail are located at the top of the window:\nReply lets you write a message back to the sender or to all recipients\nForward lets you forward the e-mail along to another party\nThe Action button is a pull-down menu with advanced organizational options like marking a message as new, flagging a message, moving it to other folders, printing it, et cetera\nDelete sends the message to your Trash folder, also located on the left-hand side\nSpam sends the message to your Spam folder and will help AOL Mail identify future spam\nTo write an e-mail, either hit \"Reply\" to an existing message or the \"Compose\" button at the screen's top left to create a new message. AOL Mail comes with a rich text formatting palette that allows you to change fonts, text and background color, text alignment and more. Those tools are located right above the large text box.\nYou can attach an image or any other file using the Attach File button. And you can spell check your message with the Spelling button at the top of the window. Click on misspelled words to see suggested corrections. When you're satisfied with your message, press the Send button at the top of the screen. If you're not ready, you can press the Save Draft button to save the message in your Drafts folder on the left.\nBelow the Trash folder are two icons for Contacts and Calendar. Contacts is the same as an address book in other e-mail programs. When you click on Contacts, a new window will open where you can add new contacts, fill in their e-mail addresses and other contact information, and organize them into lists.\nAOL Mail features include a calendar so users can manage their schedules.\nClick the Calendar button to open the integrated calendar application. Hit the New Event button to add an event, appointment or meeting to the calendar. You'll be asked to name the event, set the date and time, indicate whether it repeats (daily, weekly, et cetera), and set up a reminder alert. You can also add an event description and a location that automatically links to Mapquest.\nNow let's look at some of the newer and more advanced features of AOL Mail.\nIn 1989, a voice-over artist named Elwood Edwards recorded the infamous three words that defined e-mail in the early 1990s. AOL's announcement became so ubiquitous it even inspired a movie starring Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks. The Web mail version of AOL Mail has dropped the \"You've got mail!\" announcement. But you can always order a personalized .wav file (\"You've got mail, Brenda!\") from Elwood Edwards's Web site.",

        "raw_content": "The Transnational Mosque: Architecture and Historical Memory in the Contemporary Middle East (Islamic Civilization and Muslim Networks)\nKishwar Rizvi\nReligious Buildings, History, Middle East, Islam\nKishwar Rizvi, drawing on the multifaceted history of the Middle East, offers a richly illustrated analysis of the role of transnational mosques in the construction of contemporary Muslim identity. As Rizvi explains, transnational mosques are structures built through the support of both government sponsorship, whether in the home country or abroad, and diverse transnational networks. By concentrating on mosques--especially those built at the turn of the twenty-first century--as the epitome of Islamic architecture, Rizvi elucidates their significance as sites for both the validation of religious praxis and the construction of national and religious ideologies.Rizvi delineates the transnational religious, political, economic, and architectural networks supporting mosques in Saudi Arabia, Iran, Turkey, and the United Arab Emirates, as well as in countries within their spheres of influence, such as Pakistan, Syria, and Turkmenistan. She discerns how the buildings feature architectural designs that traverse geographic and temporal distances, gesturing to far-flung places and times for inspiration. Digging deeper, however, Rizvi reveals significant diversity among the mosques--whether in a Wahabi-Sunni kingdom, a Shi&8219;i theocratic government, or a republic balancing secularism and moderate Islam--that repudiates representations of Islam as a monolith. Mosques reveal alliances and contests for influence among multinational corporations, nations, and communities of belief, Rizvi shows, and her work demonstrates how the built environment is a critical resource for understanding culture and politics in the contemporary Middle East and the Islamic world. - from Amzon",

        "title": "Deer Mountain \u2013 craig constantine",
        "raw_content": "Deer Ridge (aug 28)\nEpic: This was meant to be the first climb as part of our 24 hour challenge. A classic bush-wack approach to the base of the rocks at sunrise. Then 5 pitches of traditional climbing finishing at the overlook on top of the mountain.\nWe got up at 4:30am, having packed everything the night before. It was pretty chilly and we were facing a good hour-and-a-half stomp through the woods. Our plan? \u2026walk straight through the campgrounds \u2014 literally through camp sites and out the back of the campground. Then, head directly up hill until twilight brought us a good view of the mountain.\nhttps://constantine.name/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/1c_IMGP4775_marked.mp4\nhttps://constantine.name/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/2b_IMGP4787_marked.mp4\nInitially, we were walking through grass-carpeted woods, and through a small meadow atop a little hill. But the further we went, the steeper it got. Until it turned into a true \u201cclass 3\u201d scramble.\nPre-dawn approach\nTwilight was upon us as we reached the base of the lowest spire.\nWe reached the base of the rocks moment before dawn.\n\u2026and this is what the dawn \u201cAlpine glow\u201d looks like at 8,000 feet on Deer Mountain.\nhttps://constantine.name/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/3d_IMGP4833_marked.mp4\nGiddy as school children \u2014 and possibly a wee bit oxygen deprived \u2014 we took a break to sight-see.\nhttps://constantine.name/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/3g_MVI_4023_marked.mp4\nThe base of Deer Ridge\nSunrise from Stagway on Deer Ridge\nThe final approach phase \u2014 yes, this is all just to get TO the climbing \u2014 is to duck around the lowest spire and climb up another 500 feet. To the left of the nose is a gently sloping shoulder called Stagway.\nSunrise on Deer Ridge\nWe totally loved that the \u201cNotice\u201d sign, had been there so long, that the actual notice was gone. The view from Stagway was beyond awesome, and was well worth the two hours of extreme labor to reach it\u2019s ~8,500\u2032 above sea level view point.\nAt this point, we could finally walk up to the base of the climb and assess. We were facing 30+ mph wind gusts, storm/rain clouds coming down the valley, and the first section was 80 vertical feet of crack climbing. (ie, there are no hand holds on the rock, just a crack to wedge your fingers and hands into.) We discussed it for a while, and I eventually called it off. It was just too many things weighing on the wrong side of the equation.\nWe snacked and discussed climbing the random looking stuff directly above Stagway. Unfortunately, the climbing guide said all the climbable lines were on the nose and to the right. On the plus side, it would be easier (in terms of technical difficulty) than climbing the nose, and just for a perk, it would be opening a new line. (Meaning no one had ever climbed it.) We figure that after one section through this stuff on the left, we could traverse back to the right, and continue up the nose\u2019s progressively easier sections.\nUnfortunately, this is also where we stopped taking photos and video as things went from being \u201cfun\u201d, to being \u201chard work.\u201d\nWe setup and started up through the randomness above Stagway. After a long, long time slowly feeding rope to Mike, he stopped climbing and setup a belay point totally out of my sight. (Remember, it\u2019s windy so we can\u2019t communicate at all beyond a very simple rope-pulling system.) Eventually, I started up after him. I won\u2019t say it was a mistake, because it was still fun at parts. But we spent nearly two hours, gaining about 50 vertical feet. I seriously thought Mike had been trying to write his name on the wall as I followed the rope up and down (down?!) left to right across the rocks. There was a lot of tricky climbing, and a tremendous amount of effort for almost no vertical gain.\nFinally, at our first belay, with only half the gain we needed to go around the nose\u2019s first section, we both decided to bail off. Bailing from the middle of a mountain requires leaving gear behind; You have to build an anchor, and then rappel from that anchor. You can pull your rope down, but the gear has to be left behind. Part of our plan for the 24 hour challenge included \u201cbail gear\u201d. That\u2019s a small collection of things that we wouldn\u2019t normally use, because if you used it, then you couldn\u2019t bail off it in a pinch. This was litterly one nut, and a carabiner that Mike had found in the Himalayas that had been left behind when someone else had bailed.\nIt took us 10 seconds to rappel off of our two hours of work. That was followed by an hour of down-scrabble all the way back to our camp site, where we collapsed pretty exhausted. At this point the weather seemed to be deteriorating, and we threw in the towel on our entire 24-hour challenge. We never even tried to cross over to MacGregor slab. We did say, half-jokingly, that we would come back some day and get it right.\nAside: as I write, in March 2015, we are planning to return in July.\nOn the other hand, we both felt like climbing more, so we headed over to climb \u201cBatman and Robin\u201d over on Lumpy Ridge. (Which will be my next post.)\n24 hour challenge prep\nMike and I were planning a 24 hour climbing challenge; Basically, an attempt to keep moving (hiking from one climb to the next) and climbing for 24 hours straight.\nThese photos are from way back in July 2014 when I was rock climbing in Colorado with Mike Bowyer. I\u2019m only just now getting back to going through the rest of my photographs.\nAspen Glenn campground \u2014 where we were camping \u2014 is tucked into the trees at the base of this mountain.\nOur plan was to get up before dawn (4:30 to be exact), hike the 1,500 vertical feet through the forrest (starting at about 7,000 feet above sea level mind you.) There\u2019s no trail to the base of the climb; The plan is to just go straight from our campsite to the climb, and arrive at the base of the climb at dawn \u2014 a test of our planning and navigation in the dark. Climb the nose \u2014 that prominent line between the sunny and shady faces of the big beautiful hunk of rock. Then hike down (there\u2019s a trail from the top that curves around the right shoulder) and back through our campsite for water and food.\nAt the campsite, we\u2019d pick up a pre-stuffed extra gear bag and hike across the valley floor. On the north side of the valley is MacGregor slab; It\u2019s just this big \u2018ol gently sloped blob of granite with about 12 different climbable lines. We planned to stash our gear bag at the base of the slab, and then start doing laps of: climb-up, and walk-off around the shoulder, all day and night. Again, there are no trails that lead to the climbing on MacGregor. It\u2019s just a bush-wack \u201cthat way\u201d. If everything went perfect, we hoped to get the last climb to end on the top of the slab at the next sunrise.\nDeer Mountain calling us from our campsite\nCooking dinner in a hurry (this is bear country) as night falls.\nAs the sun set on our day of planning, I set up my camera to take a long, time-lapse of the first thing we planned to climb the next day. This isn\u2019t a \u201cfade to black\u201d at the end, it\u2019s a \u201csun went down, it got pitch dark\u201d end. (6 seconds of video.)\nhttps://constantine.name/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/MVI_4020_marked.mp4",

        "raw_content": "Should I lease a car in my business? Sales representatives will often advise a business owner that leasing is a \u201cbetter deal\u201d because \u201cit\u2019ll be fully deductible on your taxes.\u201d While the tax implications may be an important factor in your decision-making process, it\u2019s best to truly understand all of the other implications as well before determining the best course of action for your business.\nIf you\u2019ve leased equipment before, you might already know that there are two main types of equipment leases, capital leases, and operating leases, so beyond the lease or purchase decision, you also have compared the types of leases and determine the benefits and drawbacks in your particular situation.\nThe lease contains a bargain purchase agreement (a purchase agreement for less than the market value of the asset at the end of the lease \u2013 often times $1.00).\nAn operating lease is one in which the conveyance of property is treated like a rental. No asset or liability is recorded on the balance sheet; the periodic payments are simply expensed on the income statement and reduce net income each period. Operating leases are sometimes referred to as \u201coff-the-balance-sheet financing.\u201d This type of contract allows the entity to use the asset but does not convey the rights of ownership to the asset. The property, at the end of the lease, is returned to the lessor, and, often, the lessee is given the opportunity to purchase the item leased at fair market value.\nIf technology is expected to change rapidly, operating leases can be a good way for small businesses to stay competitive without being bogged down by worthless outdated equipment. An operating lease allows for more flexibility than a capital lease because the lessor is not committed to ownership of the equipment at the end of the lease term.\nWith regard to the idea that leases offer tax benefits, is it better to buy or lease equipment for my small business? The lease versus purchase decision should take into consideration the timing of your income. If you have a great year revenue-wise and you need some expense to offset that income, then doing a capital lease or purchase of assets makes sense because it\u2019s likely that you\u2019ll be able to take bonus depreciation on the property. Furthermore, if you anticipate additional growth in your business that will necessitate more equipment to meet rising demand, purchasing is a good idea for tax purposes. If you anticipate that your revenue will be steady over the coming 3-5 years, then you may want to enter into an operating lease because the expense will be spread evenly over time and will not cause significant fluctuations in your taxable income.\nMaking the \u201cright\u201d decision when acquiring equipment will require unique analysis for each business and situation. It\u2019s not as simple as should I buy or lease a vehicle for small business. It is always recommended to seek the guidance of your accounting professional to assist in assessing your circumstances to determine which option, lease or purchase, is best for your business.",

        "raw_content": "Germaine Greer\u2019s Rainforest Call to Arms\nBestselling author Germaine Greer presented her new book, White Beech: The Rainforest Years at King\u2019s Place this Monday.\nThe book talks about the Australian rainforest of Gondwana, which Greer has been regenerating over the past few years with the help of some volunteers. With White Beech, Greer tries to compel people to take part in the conservation of these areas and not leave it to politicians.\nThe author spoke about the much-needed restoration of the country\u2019s panorama and how to restore its biodiversity and uniqueness. A part of the world we cannot leave without, as she explained.\n\u201cThe forest is in charge\u201d, affirmed Greer during the presentation, which consisted in a slideshow of photos of Gondwana, which showed all the implements they have made over the years.\nThe presentation, dubbed \u201cNot just another anthropogenic biome\u201d served to explain all the information contained in Greer\u2019s book. She also described how they take care of plants and trees before inserting them into nature.\nAfter her speech, the writer welcomed some questions from the audience, some of which prompted her to speak about the politics of her homeland and the lack of interest in keeping the rainforest safe.\n\u201cApparently, to be the president of Australia, you have to pretend to be stupid\u201d, said Greer referring to Prime Minister Tony Abbott and the poor \u2013 in her opinion \u2013 environmental plan of the government.\nBorn in Melbourne, Australia, in 1939, Greer started her career with an extensive and cultural higher education. She graduated in English and French literature at the University of Melbourne, and afterwards, she got a Master\u2019s Degree in Romantic Poetry by the University of Sydney, where she joined the Sydney Push movement.\nThanks to her Master\u2019s thesis, The Development of Byron\u2019s Satiric Mode, Germaine obtained the Commonwealth Scholarship, which she used to carry on with her doctoral studies at the University of Cambridge, eventually getting her doctorate in Elizabethan Drama.\nIn England, she wrote for magazines such as Private Eye and Oz, and she started to publish books focused on feminism, with which she would achieve fame and worldwide recognition. The most important of them is The Female Eunuch, published in 1970, which became a huge hit and catapulted Greer to fame.\nNow, with White Beech, the celebrated author wants to address the environmental issues in her home country and what can be done about it. And it is not only a problem in Australia. When asked if England should be thinking of doing something similar, Greer did not hesitate.\nWhite Beech: The Rainforest Years is now on sale.

Some wonderful cinematography, but Dustin Hoffman et al. delve into the ennui of the recent college graduate, which really hit home to me around the time I originally watched the film, being a recent grad sitting at home wondering what I might do with my life. But at the same time, it is so much more than that.\n#49 \u2013 The Perks of Being a Wallflower (Stephen Chbosky, 2012)\nI\u2019d like to think that part of my list contains some personal charm, and this film\u2019s inclusion, let alone its positioning, indicates that personal charm. The Perks of Being a Wallflower was a film with which I connected immediately. Great performances from the young cast, and exploring themes I was able to relate to so easily, if even, perhaps, to a lesser degree than the characters on screen. A wonderfully realized adaptation.\n#48 \u2013 Battleship Potemkin (Sergei Eisenstein, 1925)\nA more startling transition from movie to movie there is probably not on the entirety of my list than these last two. But Battleship Potemkin is a startling achievement in cinema, so it may be fitting. Eisenstein\u2019s mastery at such an early stage of cinematic development is astounding, as he crafts a truly artistic silent film with incredible images and sequences.\n\u201cA fine bunch of water lilies you turned out to be!\u201d\n#47 \u2013 Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (David Hand, 1937)\nAnimated films are some of my favorite film experiences, and are truly an important element to the history of cinema and its expression. Well, no animated film is more important than the one that started them all, but what sets Snow White above simply being important film is the simple fact that its a great story and a great film too!\n\u201cMovies don\u2019t create psychos. Movies make psychos more creative!\u201d\n#46 \u2013 Scream (Wes Craven, 1996)\nWithout a doubt, Scream was a game changer. It broke all the rules, while still somehow abiding by them by simply re-writing them. I\u2019m usually not a big horror movie guy, but when done as well as Scream, with as many original ideas that have since been ripped off and parodied, then you have yourself a classic, highly entertaining film.\n#45 \u2013 Intolerance: Love\u2019s Struggle Through the Ages (D.W. Griffith, 1916)\nThere are often times when I watch a movie and wonder how they accomplished what they did, and then there is Intolerance. I can often cite some technical advancement that is able to achieve the desired effect, but this film came out in 1916! Its visual splendor is unexplained to me to this day, and that mystery adds to the mystique of a film which is so big and ambitious that even the story reflects that daunting ambition.\n\u201cIf I say it\u2019s safe to surf this beach, Captain, then it\u2019s safe to surf this beach!\u201d\n#44 \u2013 Apocalypse Now (Francis Ford Coppola, 1979)\nIf The Godfather: Part II was Coppola at his meticulous best, then Apocalypse Now is Coppola at his most crazed, which adds an unexpected layer of perfection on top of a story and a film which is totally bonkers, but in the most interesting, intriguing and entertaining of ways.\n\u201cI want to speak to someone in charge. I want to lodge a complaint. You have no right to make people crazy!\u201d\n#43 \u2013 Close Encounters of the Third Kind (Steven Spielberg, 1977)\nSpielberg crafts this film with such a visual flair, including incredible lighting, to create a film full of mood and energy which permeates throughout the film to create a sense of wonder and mystery, which matches the story so wonderfully. Plus, I\u2019ll never be able to look at mashed potatoes the same way again.\n#42 \u2013 City Lights (Charles Chaplin, 1931)\nChaplin\u2019s Tramp character as never been as endearing as his depiction in this classic love story. So delicate while also being laugh out loud funny, City Lights is the perfect amalgamation of everything Chaplin has put into this character. Each sequence feels timeless.\n#41 \u2013 Psycho (Alfred Hitchcock, 1960)\nWhile I mentioned horror being a less represented genre on my list earlier in this post, I\u2019m not sure I would entirely classify Psycho as \u201chorror\u201d. I represents elements, but its ability to be more than simply a horror film is was sets it apart. Hitchcock uses his visual acumen mixed with the suspense filling, iconic score from Bernard Herrmann to create a surreal environment in which this psychological masterpiece to unfold.\nTags: Apocalypse Now, Battleship Potemkin, City Lights, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, Intolerance, Psycho, Scream, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, The Graduate, The Perks of Being a Wallflower\nPrevious Post Previous post: Top 125: 51-60\nNext Post Next post: The Choice (2016)",

        "raw_content": "By Adam ShelepakPublished November 8, 2013\nWords like \"climate change\" and \"global warming\" have become buzzwords that are now common in our vernacular for both scientists and nonscientists alike. However, do we really know the impacts that these will have on life on the planet Earth. As common as talk about climate change is, one often overlooked aspect is the worldwide loss of biodiversity and how greatly this will affect the human population in the field of medicine.\nBy Adam Shelepak\nBiodiversity is the variety and amount of variation in life and it can be used to gauge the health of ecosystems. Biodiversity is absolutely essential for the human race. Humans use, extract, benefit from, and/or rely on a large number of other organisms to produce many goods of the modern society, including many medicine.\nBecause of human interactions, global biodiversity will decrease. Major climate change will cause of the largest mass extinctions in global history and those and organisms that are able to make it through will be affected severely. Due to changing water levels and weather patterns, organisms that survive will be forced to relocate. This will disrupt ecological niches not only in the areas directly affected by changing environments, but also those where new species relocated. This will cause a drastic reduction in the number of extant species.\nThe loss of biodiversity indicates a general downturn in the health of the global environments. A decrease in biodiversity would have many impacts on our human race. Biodiversity plays a crucial role in many facets of human life including: energy, food supply, clean water availability, and other raw materials. Disruption in these parts of human life will obviously have major impacts on our lives. But one of the interesting and important examples is how biodiversity impacts human health.\nMedicine is another major part of human life where biodiversity is crucial. A large percentage (at least half) of U.S. pharmaceuticals require some type of biological source and an even higher percentage of the world relies on some sort of biologically derived medicine, either pharmaceutical or traditional. Furthermore, research into new medicines to combat new and changing diseases would be severely limited if a large loss in biodiversity occurred.\nBecause all of the extant organisms in this world have developed from evolution, often very long period of evolution, many organisms must have overlapping biological pathways. It is the exploitation of this fact that allows medicines to be made and utilized from many living organisms. Medicines from a biological source can range from basic antibiotics like penicillin, to malaria drugs, to traditional medicine, to modern cancer treatment and chemotherapy.\nArtemisinin is a drug that is one of the most common ways to combat malaria. It was discovered in and is still harvested from a plant named sweet wormwood. It has been used in traditional Chinese medicines. Another prime example of a drug like this is paclitaxel, sold under the brand name Taxol. It is a common drug in chemotherapy. The drug inhibits the breakdown of microtubules during mitosis, helping in cancer treatment. This drug was discovered from the bark of the Pacific yew.\nThe real problem is not in the loss of these organisms, but in the organisms yet undiscovered. There are probably millions of species yet to be discovered and described, that means there are countless potential medicines, treatments, and applications that could be derived from nature. Biodiversity loss greatly limits the potential research and medicinal applications that can be applied to the diseases of tomorrow.\nFrom evolutionary perspective, organisms will adapt to change, they always do. Life on Earth has faced losses in biodiversity and climate change before. Natural selection will trend to better adapted organisms. Eventually, with the loss of biodiversity and extinctions, new niches will open and speciation will occur to fill them. As with many biological concepts, biodiversity will eventually cycle back up. This, of course, will happen over millions of years.\nThe Earth has experienced biodiversity loss before. But, in today's society this will cause the devastation of many species of today, including humans. In fact, humans may be the most greatly affected because of the reliance on so many other biological resources. With a loss in biodiversity, human health will be greatly impacted in a negative way.",

        "raw_content": "Fortunately, the mildest form of gum disease can be readily treated by your dentist with a thorough professional cleaning. If you act early, you can avoid the more invasive treatments that are needed for advanced periodontal disease.\nBecause gingivitis can be addressed with a professional cleaning rather than some sort of surgical procedure, it\u2019s another good reason to be sure to see your dentist every six months. When you have an exam at such brief intervals, gingivitis has less of a chance to progress into periodontitis, the more severe form of gum disease.\nBecause gingivitis can be addressed with a professional cleaning rather than some sort of surgical procedure, it\u2019s another good reason to be sure to see your dentist every six months.\nThe routine preventive cleanings you get at these regular appointments also can help to stop gingivitis in its tracks, as they clear away bacteria that may linger despite your best efforts to keep your mouth as clean as possible.\nOther symptoms of gingivitis include red or swollen gums, tenderness in the gums and bad breath. If you notice any of these signs, call our office to schedule an appointment for an exam and treatment.\nKeep in mind that preventing gingivitis (or a relapse) also depends on what you do at home. Brushing your teeth twice a day and flossing once a day will go a long way toward minimizing the oral bacteria that causes gum disease, including gingivitis. If you\u2019re particularly prone to bacteria proliferation, you may want to ask if adding an anti-bacterial mouthwash would be beneficial, too.\nAny bleeding in the gums is abnormal and should be evaluated by a knowledgeable professional. If you notice this symptom, contact The Dental Place at 972-264-5795 and schedule an appointment to be seen in our office as soon as possible.",

        "title": "Migration and Immigration during the Great Depression | US History II (American Yawp)",
        "raw_content": "US History II (American Yawp)\nMigration and Immigration during the Great Depression\nOn the Great Plains, environmental catastrophe deepened America\u2019s longstanding agricultural crisis and magnified the tragedy of the Depression. Beginning in 1932, severe droughts hit from Texas to the Dakotas and lasted until at least 1936. The droughts compounded years of agricultural mismanagement. To grow their crops, Plains farmers had plowed up natural ground cover that had taken ages to form over the surface of the dry Plains states. Relatively wet decades had protected them, but, during the early 1930s, without rain, the exposed fertile topsoil turned to dust, and without sod or windbreaks such as trees, rolling winds churned the dust into massive storms that blotted out the sky, choked settlers and livestock, and rained dirt not only across the region but as far east as Washington, D.C., New England, and ships on the Atlantic Ocean. The \u201cDust Bowl,\u201d as the region became known, exposed all-too-late the need for conservation. The region\u2019s farmers, already hit by years of foreclosures and declining commodity prices, were decimated. For many in Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, and Arkansas who were \u201cbaked out, blown out, and broke,\u201d their only hope was to travel west to California, whose rains still brought bountiful harvests and\u2013potentially\u2013jobs for farmworkers. It was an exodus. Oklahoma lost 440,000 people, or a full 18.4 percent of its 1930 population, to out-migration.\nThis iconic photograph made real the suffering of millions during the Great Depression. Dorothea Lange, \u201cDestitute pea pickers in California. Mother of seven children. Age thirty-two. Nipomo, California\u201d or \u201cMigrant Mother,\u201d February/March 1936. Library of Congress.\nDorothea Lange\u2019s Migrant Mother became one of the most enduring images of the \u201cDust Bowl\u201d and the ensuing westward exodus. Lange, a photographer for the Farm Security Administration, captured the image at migrant farmworker camp in Nipomo, California, in 1936. In the photograph a young mother stares out with a worried, weary expression. She a migrant, having left her home in Oklahoma to follow the crops in the Golden State. She took part in what many in the mid-1930s were beginning to recognize as a vast migration of families out of the southwestern plains states. In the image she cradles an infant and supports two older children, who cling to her. Lange\u2019s photo encapsulated the nation\u2019s struggle. The subject of the photograph seemed used to hard work but down on her luck, and uncertain about what the future might hold.\nThe \u201cOkies,\u201d as such westward migrants were disparagingly called by their new neighbors, were the most visible group many who were on the move during the Depression, lured by news and rumors of jobs in far flung regions of the country. By 1932 sociologists were estimating that millions of men were on the roads and rails travelling the country. Economists sought to quantify the movement of families from the Plains. Popular magazines and newspapers were filled with stories of homeless boys and the veterans-turned-migrants of the Bonus Army commandeering boxcars. Popular culture, such as William Wellman\u2019s 1933 film, Wild Boys of the Road, and, most famously, John Steinbeck\u2019s Grapes of Wrath, published in 1939 and turned into a hit movie a year later, captured the Depression\u2019s dislocated populations.\nThese years witnessed the first significant reversal in the flow of people between rural and urban areas. Thousands of city-dwellers fled the jobless cities and moved to the country looking for work. As relief efforts floundered, many state and local officials threw up barriers to migration, making it difficult for newcomers to receive relief or find work. Some state legislatures made it a crime to bring poor migrants into the state and allowed local officials to deport migrants to neighboring states. In the winter of 1935-1936, California, Florida, and Colorado established \u201cborder blockades\u201d to block poor migrants from their states and reduce competition with local residents for jobs. A billboard outside Tulsa, Oklahoma, informed potential migrants that there were \u201cNO JOBS in California\u201d and warned them to \u201cKEEP Out.\u201d\nSympathy for migrants, however, accelerated late in the Depression with the publication of John Steinbeck\u2019s Grapes of Wrath. The Joad family\u2019s struggles drew attention to the plight of Depression-era migrants and, just a month after the nationwide release of the film version, Congress created the Select Committee to Investigate the Interstate Migration of Destitute Citizens. Starting in 1940, the Committee held widely publicized hearings. But it was too late. Within a year of its founding, defense industries were already gearing up in the wake of the outbreak of World War II, and the \u201cproblem\u201d of migration suddenly became a lack of migrants needed to fill war industries. Such relief was nowhere to be found in the 1930s.\nAmericans meanwhile feared foreign workers willing to work for even lower wages. The Saturday Evening Post warned that foreign immigrants, who were \u201ccompelled to accept employment on any terms and conditions offered,\u201d would exacerbate the economic crisis. On September 8, 1930, the Hoover administration issued a press release on the administration of immigration laws \u201cunder existing conditions of unemployment.\u201d Hoover instructed consular officers to scrutinize carefully the visa applications of those \u201clikely to become public charges\u201d and suggested that this might include denying visas to most, if not all, alien laborers and artisans. The crisis itself had served to stifle foreign immigration, but such restrictive and exclusionary actions in the first years of the Depression intensified its effects. The number of European visas issued fell roughly 60 percent while deportations dramatically increased. Between 1930 and 1932, 54,000 people were deported. An additional 44,000 deportable aliens left \u201cvoluntarily.\u201d\nExclusionary measures hit Mexican immigrants particularly hard. The State Department made a concerted effort to reduce immigration from Mexico as early as 1929 and Hoover\u2019s executive actions arrived the following year. Officials in the Southwest led a coordinated effort to push out Mexican immigrants. In Los Angeles, the Citizens Committee on Coordination of Unemployment Relief began working closely with federal officials in early 1931 to conduct deportation raids while the Los Angeles County Department of Charities began a simultaneous drive to repatriate Mexicans and Mexican Americans on relief, negotiating a charity rate with the railroads to return Mexicans \u201cvoluntarily\u201d to their mother country. According to the federal census, from 1930 to 1940 the Mexican-born population living in Arizona, California, New Mexico and Texas fell from 616,998 to 377,433. Franklin Roosevelt did not indulge anti-immigrant sentiment as willingly as Hoover had. Under the New Deal, the Immigration and Naturalization Service halted some of the Hoover Administration\u2019s most divisive practices, but, with jobs suddenly scarce, hostile attitudes intensified, and official policies less than welcoming, immigration plummeted and deportations rose. Over the course of the Depression, more people left the United States than entered it.\nAmerican Yawp. Located at: http://www.americanyawp.com/index.html. Project: American Yawp.

        "title": "Interview with Remi Vaughn, Writer/Director of Out of Focus | CscapeWriter",
        "raw_content": "Posted by CscapeWriter in Cinematography, Film Festival, Independent Film, Photography, Writing\nArizona Films, entertainment, Film, Film Festival, Independent Film, Independent Film Directing, Indie Cinema, Indie Film Acting, Out of Focus movie, Script Writing, Supernatural Thrillers, Think Tank Film Festival\nOut of Focus Premiere \u2013 Group Shot\nAs Three Horizons Productions (THP) gears up for the premiere of Out of Focus, I spoke with writer/director, Remi Vaughn. Her tenacity and dedication to her project, along with her keen instinct for team-building culminates with this long-awaited screening. We spoke about her professional background, which includes her creative endeavors as well as her financial experience and business acumen.\nWhat was the inspiration for Out of Focus?\nA few years back, I had started to write a script called Off Balance. The script to some extent was the foundation for both Out of Focus and The Kiss. When I wrote Off Balance, I was told by producers and script doctors that it was too complex and I needed to streamline the story layers and characters. After lots of pain and suffering \u2013 and fun too \u2013 I re-wrote Off Balance several times until it was made more direct for mainstream purposes. The two main story layers I had removed, even though I really liked them, became Out Of Focus and The Kiss. From there, each script became a story of its own, born out of Off Balance.\nOut Of Focus \u2013 3D Vintage\nThe overall inspiration for Out Of Focus comes from my fascination with shamanism and supernatural powers. Even though I am skeptical about all of that, I found it exciting and filled with surprises. With Out Of Focus, I wanted to blend shamanistic mind powers with technology, namely in the movie, a vintage still camera. Blending the two proved to me a lot more challenging than I expected, but once I created the rules of this supernatural world, everything fell into place.\nWhen writing the screenplay, did you have the plot and characters fleshed out first? Or did you find that some plot elements or character traits needed to be revised?\nWhen I write, I develop the characters and outline of the script first. Most of the time, I don\u2019t know what comes first: story or characters; it\u2019s really organic and it happens at once, subconsciously.\nMy first draft is from the heart and the imagination. I don\u2019t pay attention to dialogue, narrative, or structure. I just write whatever comes to me as part of the story. I let the characters become me and take over. I don\u2019t censor myself; I just write. Then, the logical mind has to take over and that\u2019s when I must be very careful. I ruined one of my early scripts doing that and trying to listen to everyone\u2019s comments (producers, script doctors, etc.). At the end of the day, it\u2019s important to follow your instinct and not over-write it to the point where you have lost all focus in the story because you\u2019re trying to please everyone.\nRe-write your script with a clear thematic vision in mind and then fine-tune your characters and story around that theme. Don\u2019t try to make everything perfect, because nothing is and you\u2019ll get frustrated trying. I am now experienced enough to balance the heart and the mind when I do my re-writes.\nHow many revisions did you go through while completing the Out of Focus script (the feature-length script)?\nSeveral. Actually, 17 versions including the latest one. Out Of Focus is a story with four narrative layers happening in parallel and as the story progresses all four merge to interact and take over the resolution of the conflict. It\u2019s also a fairly expensive movie to produce/direct because of the special effects required to create a supernatural world in CGI.\nThen, I decided to write a short film so I could raise enough funding to put together a strong calling card for THP as a professional production company; and for me, it would also be a calling card as a writer, producer, and director.\nThe short film (click here for trailer) is an extract from the feature length script and not a stand-alone narrative; I don\u2019t explain everything that happens in the short film and I only provide limited back story elements as well as limited insight into the main characters. It ends on a cliffhanger (as I don\u2019t want to give away the ending) and I did make some changes to the story and characters so I didn\u2019t have to reveal all the twists and plot points of the feature. What I really did for the short film is extract the scenes I believed would best showcase the story line and the characters of the movie. The short film is only a representation of what the vision of the feature film would be.\nFor instance, in the feature length script, there are five narrative layers:\nThe story of a young woman shaman (Aella) who has incredible mind powers but could\nOut Of Focus \u2013 Aldred Montoya and Lucinda Serrano\ncare less about putting them to good use, having too much fun with her friends and carefree about her life and future.\nThe story of the shaman\u2019s mentor (Loki) who encourages her to embrace her mind powers and talent as a shaman because only her mind powers can stop the evil the media calls the Phantom Killer.\nThe story of the forensics photographer (Nick) working on the Phantom Killer case; this photographer owns a still camera that captures the victims\u2019 lives before they die; he believes that the power of his camera and photographs will make him rich and famous.\nThe story of the main detective on the case (Jack), who is being challenged to forget about the laws and the rules to stop this Phantom Killer, and that this evil can only be stopped by non-traditional detective work.\nThe story of a preacher (Timothy), who believes this evil is the devil and can only be stopped if people repent from their sins; this preacher is intent on stopping the unholy ways of the pagans as he calls them, that is anyone who doesn\u2019t adhere to his religious beliefs.\nThe short film introduces the three main characters \u2013 Aella, Loki, and Nick \u2013 who drive the main story.\nI\u2019ve been told the schedule was tight for the Out of Focus shoot. What steps did you take to ensure a fluid work environment?\nLots of preparation work. I thrive on preparing as much as possible before shooting. I want to have everything documented, thought out, listed, etc. I love the preparation phase because I know that when it\u2019s over, it\u2019s time to shoot. The more prepared I am, the more creative I am on set. Because I knew every page of the script, every shot, I was able to make changes in real-time to accommodate delays, budget constraints, location issues, etc. and still get all the shots I needed for the final product.\nThe cast of Out of Focus has indicated you have a very organic approach to direction. This approach gave them a sense of support with sufficient freedom to interpret the characters. What is your guiding philosophy to direction?\nBecause of the extensive preparation work, and because I created and wrote the script, I knew all the characters inside out. I also knew that every scene could be interpreted differently by the actors; that means, I knew the latitude I could play with; I also knew that I would have choices for my final edit.\nI love working with the actors because in essence you are bringing the characters to life. It\u2019s like writing and re-writing except this time it\u2019s for \u201creal\u201d \u2013 not just words on a page. And then the actors will have their own interpretation, often on the spur of the moment. So, why not? Let\u2019s try it once or twice. If it doesn\u2019t work, it\u2019s OK because I know I will still shoot my original interpretation. That\u2019s part preparation work, part creativity. In many instances, for my final edit, I selected clips where I was experimenting with the actors and where the actors themselves were experimenting with their characters. It\u2019s the fun of it all; it\u2019s exhilarating.\nMy philosophy is that there is no silly interpretation on what the character says or does. It\u2019s all about wanting to experiment (even at time pushing it beyond the personality of the character) and making the right choices on set and in the editing bay.\nYou\u2019ve dedicated a great deal of time to getting Out of Focus to the screen. What has been your biggest hurdle? Your biggest success?\nOut Of Focus \u2013 3D Dali World\nThe special effects by far. I had to go through three different teams to get the right VFX. When you have limited funding, it\u2019s really tough to get the right people. Everyone tried their best but some didn\u2019t have enough experience to make it work. In the end, it all worked out but it was the major hurdle that slowed down our post-production work. However, the journey was critical for all of us at THP as it brought us all deep inside the bowels of the VFX world: how they are done, how to better set your shots in production for maximum efficiency in post, how to work cross-platforms, etc. As you can imagine, we are now ready to tackle the most complex and creative VFX that are yet to come \u2013 for the feature film, of course!\nThe second big hurdle was processing the 4K footage from the Red Camera. When we finished shooting in the summer of 2008, the editing software out there still didn\u2019t have the plug-ins, so I really had to wait until December 2008 to start editing. Then, I went back in the summer of 2009 for two pickup days as I wanted to shoot an alternate ending to what I had shot. The new ending was meant to be more of a cliffhanger.\nThe biggest success was the overall journey. It created a sense of team spirit with the key team members as we spent our evenings, nights, holidays, and weekends working on the project. After spending four years working together, I know that THP has a strong team of talented people who are not afraid of hard work, are passionate in what they do, dedicated to getting the best quality possible within the constraints of any projects. We know we can do it, regardless of the challenges; we know we\u2019re not going to give up; we know that we have each other\u2019s backs. How often in the working world can you say that about people you work with? Not often would be my answer (based on my own experience).\nThis team work is what has made Out Of Focus a successful project \u2013 every team member played a role. It couldn\u2019t have been done if one of us had quit. But no one did. Now, we\u2019re ready for the next big project. We\u2019ll get The Kiss done to the utmost quality with passion, talent, and dedication.\nOut Of Focus \u2013 Wrap Photo\nWhat brought you to filmmaking? What is your educational background? Did you always have an interest in filmmaking?\nI\u2019m not sure myself. When I was very young I became fascinated with moving pictures whether on a TV set or a theatrical screen. I watched lots of movies on TV, at the theater, TV shows \u2013 to the point when my parents were wondering why I was so obsessed about it all. I collected stories and articles about filmmaking, cast, crew, and just about anything related to movies. I was a moving picture encyclopedia at the time.\nI wanted to have a movie camera. Since my parents couldn\u2019t afford to purchase a movie camera, I went into photography, and, with my first still camera, I started to take pictures of everything around me. But film was expensive so I was not able to develop all of it; however, I learned all the techniques on my own and by reading books. I really wanted to tell stories.\nIn reality, it all started with writing. When I was about 7 years old, all I was doing was writing all kinds of stories, science-fiction, adventure, mystery by hand. I was using my favorite movies and TV shows as examples and imagined new stories that would happen to the characters beyond the movies/shows in which they first appeared. I tried to imagine what they would do if they were in a different movie.\nEventually, my family took pity on me and got me a typewriter, which was awesome. Then I was off and typing. I took typing lessons. I typed story upon story, nonstop. I was able to generate pages and pages of narrative very quickly to the point where my writing/literature teachers gave me free reign with my writing.\nOut Of Focus \u2013 Healing\u2026 destroying\u2026\nBut I wanted more than that. I wanted to bring the stories to life. I would then get my friends together and would reenact the stories I had written. I didn\u2019t know it at the time, but in essence I was producing and directing my stories, in real-time, creating fun games with my friends. We all used to disappear for hours at a time to play-act these stories. I did this until high school and then things changed; you know, you kind of grow up. One of my literature professors (I can never forget her), set me on the path of writing at a much higher level, giving me the structure I was formally lacking. When I was about 14, I realized I wanted to get into filmmaking.\nSo you realized it was possible to be a filmmaker?\nYes! I didn\u2019t notice at first what I was doing. Obviously, I was writing; I had my camera. Then I was reenacting the stories.\nIt sounds like imaginative play developed into filmmaking.\nYes. It started informally, but, after my literature and writing professor took me under her wing, it really took off. I even won some awards for my writing.\nWhen I was still in middle school I decided I wanted to move to the U.S. to learn filmmaking. From that time on, I did everything I could to prepare myself for coming over here. I took an associate\u2019s degree in English while at the same time I went to the National French Cinematography School in Paris. I took all the tests I could, so I could be accepted into an American university to continue my filmmaking studies. I was accepted at several large universities (UCLA, USC, Columbia). Unfortunately, there were no scholarships or grants for foreign students at the time. The costs were much too high for my family so I had to find universities that would offer academic scholarships or grants to foreign students. I was very fortunate that I was accepted for a full scholarship at Bowling Green State University in their film and media communication program. I finished my film and media studies at the University of Utah, working multiple internships and entry-level jobs for NPR, PBS, NBC, and other independent media. I was very fortunate to have been given the trust and confidence from seasoned professionals to write and produce media projects that were broadcast to the public. Amazingly, I eventually got paid for the work I did as a student.\nWhat kind of projects did you do for NPR and PBS?\nI did local and regional stories and documentaries. I interviewed some politicians, including a senator. Then, for a few years, I took a slight detour in life and worked internationally; however, I continued to learn the art and science of filmmaking and writing. Then, I put in place Three Horizons Productions. The objective of THP was for me to formalize my passion in filmmaking and multi-media. I knew many people who shared the same passion and we were able to start producing some of my written pieces, mainly short films, commercials, public service announcements, trailers, etc. The interesting aspect of setting up THP was that everyone came together through various common business interests in Information Technology and Computer Security, both in the corporate world and in entrepreneurial businesses. It\u2019s amazing how many multi-talented people there are outside their business or corporate lives. All in all, I can say that the people who are now part of THP are those who are dedicated, loyal, and passionate. There is unconditional trust among us to perform the utmost quality work at all levels.\nAs you can see, THP has come a long way and we are a more mature company, ready to produce our first feature film, The Kiss, a psychological/serial killer thriller. The Kiss is based on a tabloid news article from 19th century France, but it does take place in present time.\nWas the process of funding difficult for your first endeavors?\nOver time, I became wiser and understood that in order to write, produce, and direct, I really needed to put in place a business structure. Filmmaking and media production is a business and without the business structure you have nothing despite having great ideas, stories, and other talented team members. It\u2019s next to impossible to move forward without business plans, marketing strategies, financial plans, etc. With THP, I have been able to combine my creativity with my business experience. In addition to film and media degrees, I also have an MSBA in financial management and computer science.\nSo far all of our projects have been done on a shoestring budget with limited investment from external parties. Now, we\u2019re ready to acquire equity funding not just for our first feature film, The Kiss, but for other projects and work for hire we are being asked to write, produce, and direct.\nDo you feel that women are under-represented behind the camera?\nLet\u2019s say that you can\u2019t believe how many times I\u2019ve been told it\u2019s going to be tough for me to direct my first-feature film, The Kiss. No one tells me it\u2019s because I\u2019m a woman, but it\u2019s loud and clear. I got so weary of hearing \u201cyou won\u2019t be able to get all that funding or name talent for your first feature film\u201d that I put together a four-page list of first-time directors (men and women) \u2013 many who were unknown, with limited experience, and yet got the funding, the cast, and got their first films. I could have put together 10 pages or more of these first-time directors. It\u2019s interesting when you look at the stats at how many men got millions of dollars to direct their first feature film and when you look at their background they had less than me \u2013 or at least equal to me. Yes, there are exceptions to that, but overall, there seems to be more acceptance for men as first-time directors than for women. I live it time and time again as the THP team pitches our projects, starting with The Kiss.\nAs a filmmaker in Arizona, what could the film community do to help legislators recognized the importance of tax incentives? Will this encourage more films to be brought to Arizona? Could working with the business community help raise awareness and get legislators to see the business-sense in providing competitive tax incentives?\nA few months back I wrote an article about this topic and two of the THP team members have reached out to legislators, but it doesn\u2019t seem that many legislators really understand the real economic value of supporting filmmaking and multi-media projects in Arizona. It\u2019s a shame because we have several universities and private institutions here with very solid and well-respected film and multi-media programs \u2013 and what happens when the students graduate? They leave Arizona because there is no work in this industry here. They go to New Mexico, California, Louisiana, Florida, e.g., where these states have tax incentives to bring in productions. I\u2019m not just talking about movies that come here once and then leave; I\u2019m talking about recurring productions: web series, TV shows, social media series, advertising, commercials, etc. You name it. These are productions that would provide strong economic opportunities for people in Arizona and generate more taxable income as a result. It\u2019s real work; it would allow educated people to stay here and work here.\nRegarding our first feature film, The Kiss, our current negotiations with investors, producers, and distribution companies are very clear: plan to shoot your movie in a state that offers tax credits. So, even though I wrote The Kiss with Arizona in mind, I will have to rewrite it to fit the new state we will be shooting in. It\u2019s too bad \u2013 but filmmaking and media production is a business that investors want to generate a profit from \u2013 and Arizona makes it very difficult for all parties to be successful.\nIn the end, people will continue to create for film, TV, and multi-media channels. I am positive and will say that Arizona will see the light, sooner or later. In the meantime, I\u2019m moving forward with our film and multi-media projects wherever they will take place. Yet, I am looking for options to shoot The Kiss movie project in Arizona \u2013 I\u2019m not giving up! So much can be done here\u2026",

        "title": "Diana Taurasi Isn't Done Yet",
        "raw_content": "Diana Taurasi Isn't Done Yet\nFourteen years ago, when Diana Taurasi began her WNBA career with the Phoenix Mercury, she was fresh off a legendary career at UConn, where she helped lead the Huskies to three straight NCAA championships on top of her individual awards. She was also in the midst of training with the U.S. Olympic team, playing alongside women\u2019s basketball royalty that included all-stars like Sheryl Swoopes, Dawn Staley, Lisa Leslie, Tina Thompson, and Katie Smith.\n\u201cWhen I first arrived at UConn, I told myself I was going to dedicate my life to basketball,\u201d Taurasi told Deadspin after practice on a Sunday afternoon in Phoenix. \u201cAnd when you do something like that, you alienate a lot of other things in your life that most people think are normal things to do. For me, that was the best decision I\u2019ve ever made, to put a 100 percent of everything I have into it, and it\u2019s treated me really good.\u201d\nTaurasi\u2019s unwavering dedication to basketball over the course of her career has manifested into three WNBA championships, more all-star teams, and record-breaking stats. She\u2019s the first player in WNBA history to amass 7,000 points, 1,500 rebounds, and 1,500 assists. Last season, she passed Tina Thompson as the WNBA\u2019s all-time leading scorer. Taurasi achieved another milestone on Friday night, during the 2018 WNBA season opener against the Dallas Wings, becoming the first player to reach 1,000 career three-pointers and one of the top four fastest players to hit that mark in the entire NBA/WNBA combined.\nShe\u2019s dominated so many statistics and become such a huge figure in the sport that it can be hard to imagine the game without her. Taurasi says her retirement isn\u2019t coming anytime soon but, as she enters her 14th season, it\u2019s worth looking back on it all. She went through the growing pains of establishing professional women\u2019s basketball in her own country, played overseas because it paid her more, came back from a DUI arrest, and successfully fought a false positive on a drug test. And yet, as dominant as she was predicted to be, holy shit was she even more dominant.\nTaurasi wasn\u2019t made to sit back and play checkers. She was made to play ball. That much is evident in her ability to throw her entire being into the game. It\u2019s part of her DNA; it\u2019s as innate as her ability to breathe. She once joked with Sports Illustrated, \u201cIf there was a basketball rehab, I\u2019d be the first one admitted.\u201d\nThat\u2019s part of the reason Kobe Bryant dubbed Taurasi the \u201cWhite Mamba.\u201d The other reason? Simple. She\u2019s just that damn good.\nThroughout her career, Taurasi has been able to marry finesse with grit, a combination that confounds and frustrates people who want her to be one or the other. She has the ability to make intricate no-look passes in tight traffic, get to the hoop as if she was surfing on a cloud, and fight for position in the post and block the shit out of a shot if anyone dares to step in the lane while she\u2019s defending the basket. Time and again, she has made fans, coaches, and players alike whisper to themselves in wonderment, how did she do that?\nWhen Geno Auriemma coached Taurasi at UConn, he\u2019d often say about facing opposing teams, \u201cWe\u2019ve got Diana.\u201d It was more than casual bragging or taunting. It was true. When it comes to key players and big moments, there\u2019s clutch shooting, and then there\u2019s Taurasi. In college, she built up a reputation for being the player who should always have the ball in her hands at the end of a game and it followed her to the pros, where that reputation morphed into legendary status and thrust her into the inevitable role as the face of women\u2019s basketball. In every championship game she\u2019s been part of, she has taken over. And it\u2019s why, in 2014, when she won her third WNBA championship with the Mercury, she became the all-time leading scorer in WNBA finals history.\nAt 35, Taurasi hasn\u2019t slowed down. She\u2019s as addicted to the game as ever, earning yet another all-star appearance during the 2017 season and breaking WNBA records in the process, all while pulling off incredible shots, making jaw-dropping passes, and being as braggadocios as she was when she came into the league.\nStill, the Mercury haven\u2019t sniffed the WNBA finals in four years. There are numerous factors to that drought, like the fact that Taurasi sat out the entire 2015 WNBA season because her overseas team\u2014UMMC Ekaterinburg in Russia\u2014offered to pay her WNBA salary on top of her base earnings to rest her body. That same year, the rivalry and dominance of the Minnesota Lynx and the Los Angeles Sparks\u2014both powerhouse teams with talent-stocked rosters from top to bottom\u2014took over the league. The Lynx won the title in 2015, then the Sparks took it in 2016. Last season, it was the Lynx again.\nThis year, Taurasi will tell you the Mercury have a good shot of breaking up the Lynx-Sparks rivalry. She says she\u2019s in the best shape of her life, key players are healthy, and, if Brittney Griner can return to the same form she started off with in 2017 before suffering a late-season injury, a playoff run looks entirely possible. Taurasi wants another championship, another ring. It would only add to her incredible legacy.\nToday, Taurasi\u2019s status as one of the all-time basketball greats is not even a question, just an evolving fact.\nTo say that Taurasi\u2019s career has been all triumph, however, would be misleading. She\u2019s had her fair share of missteps and controversy, both on and off the court. Early in her career, in 2009, she was pulled over and arrested for speeding and driving under the influence. Taurasi ended up pleading guilty to a DUI and served one day in jail after a judge commuted her 10-day sentence. Then, in late 2010, she was falsely accused of taking performance-enhancing drugs after she tested positive during a routine drug test while playing overseas for Fenerbah\u00e7e in Istanbul. Fenerbah\u00e7e terminated Taurasi\u2019s contract and she fought the charges as hard as she does when she\u2019s playing a playoff game down the stretch\u2014she wasn\u2019t going to go out like that.\nOn the court, Taurasi\u2019s been known to lose her temper. In 2013, she was suspended by the WNBA for accumulating too many technicals. And in 2016, it took her just 22 games before the same thing happened. Last season, she went as far as to clock a player in the back of the head with her forearm, prompting yet another suspension. For most of her career, Taurasi has led the league in technical fouls, and it\u2019s something she\u2019s not embarrassed about in the slightest. A technical foul to Taurasi is just another move of the chess piece, a way to gain a competitive advantage, an edge.\nTaurasi affectionately calls basketball a game of mistakes. She says you can\u2019t make the same one twice or it will cost you. And that\u2019s the battle. It\u2019s learning from those mistakes that she aspires to every time she steps on the court, and perhaps even in life.\nToday, Taurasi\u2019s status as one of the all-time basketball greats is not even a question, just an evolving fact. Now, as she begins to look back over her career and starts the 2018 season, Taurasi is reflective about how she\u2019s changed. \u201cI like to say I\u2019m a lot different in a lot of ways, but I also like to say that I\u2019m the same in a lot of ways,\u201d she says.\u201dWhen you play a long time and you get a little older, you can get a little skeptical and become a little bit of a pessimist, and that experience plays against you. I felt like this year, I had little goals and that was to be naive again and to enjoy the moment again.\u201d\nAt this point in her career and life, Taurasi\u2019s overall accomplishments have surpassed even her wildest expectations\u2014especially off the court. Last year, Taurasi married her former Mercury teammate Penny Taylor. This past March, they welcomed their son, Leo. \u201cI actually was of the thinking that I was never going to get married and never have a family, to tell you the truth,\u201d Taurasi says with a laugh. \u201cI was just always kind of a free spirit with a wild side, but when you a meet a person that just makes you better and makes you better at life, your mindset changes. Then as you get older, different things come into play. Fifteen years ago, I would have said no way. Sitting here now being 35, there\u2019s no other way I\u2019d want it.\u201d\nTaurasi reacts to a call in their favor against the Seattle Storm in the first half of Sunday night\u2019s game.\nPhoto: Elaine Thompson (AP)\nFor Taurasi, opening up about her personal life is a big deal. Throughout her playing career, she has been very private about everything but basketball. But as she\u2019s gotten older, Taurasi says she\u2019s realized that some things are worth talking about, especially the birth of her son.\n\u201cThe day that we went to the hospital was just a day of the unknown. When you get into that car and you\u2019re driving home and you have a little human being in the backseat, you\u2019re just like life has completely changed in so many ways and it makes everything else kind of secondary,\u201d she says. \u201cYou know, you have to care for this little child. And it\u2019s been really great the past few months.\n\u201cThe most overwhelming thing to me is wondering why they haven\u2019t created a good changing table that\u2019s functional. I don\u2019t get it. Or even the baby wipes, where you reach for one and like 10 of them come out. I do not understand it. It doesn\u2019t makes sense to me.\u201d\nWhat does make sense, and what will always make sense to Taurasi, is basketball.\nAt practice with both rookies and veteran players, Taurasi muses over how the players just keep getting more athletic and more skilled every year, and that the level of play in the WNBA is better than ever. Her only complaint about the growth and evolution of the league is a financial one. \u201cAt the end of the day, the media coverage and all of the talk about the importance of the league hasn\u2019t turned into something for the players. At this point, the coaches are still getting paid more than the players, the GMs are still getting paid more than the players, and I don\u2019t know really any other sport that that happens,\u201d she says. \u201cEventually, someone from the business side of things has to step up and take a stand. Maybe it\u2019s the NBA with their multibillion-dollars TV deals and Nike deals. I don\u2019t know. We always talk about trickle-down effect in American politics and the economy, so I don\u2019t know why that doesn\u2019t trickle down to us.\u201d\n\u201cI always say that I know I\u2019ll be done playing basketball when I stop fighting on the floor.\nLike many other top-tier women\u2019s basketball players, Taurasi has made her money (millions, actually) playing overseas. According to Forbes, between 2017 and 2021, the maximum salary paid to WNBA veterans will increase only from $113,500 to $121,500. So, for 14 years, Taurasi has played year-round to increase her earning potential and make a living. She earns 15 times more money playing for UMMC Ekaterinburg. And when Taurasi took the deal in 2015 to sit out for millions, it sparked a national debate on WNBA salaries and the physical toll playing all year long takes on the body.\nThat\u2019s why WNBA players often talk about playing for love of the game. Compared to their male counterparts, they don\u2019t get paid nearly enough for what they put into it.\nYet, Taurasi is back for more. \u201cI always say that I know I\u2019ll be done playing basketball when I stop fighting on the floor. If you don\u2019t play with that edge or that competitive spirit, you\u2019re just another player out there,\u201d she says. \u201cI can only speak for myself, but when I don\u2019t play with that fight then I\u2019m just ordinary.\u201d\nThe Arizona sun will eventually set on Taurasi\u2019s career. And when it does, she\u2019ll be remembered as anything but ordinary. It\u2019s hard to picture what basketball will look like without her. She thinks about it sometimes, wondering what else she could possibly do to fill her time and take the place of her basketball obsession. Taurasi says she\u2019s always been fascinated with architecture, the clean lines of things, and that maybe that\u2019s something she\u2019d like to pursue. But then the whistle blows, the ball is tipped, and the thought fades far back into the corners of her mind.\nWhatever she ends up doing once her playing days are over, Taurasi is confident it will find her and not the other way around. She can\u2019t envision basketball not being part of it in some shape or form. For now, she\u2019s content being back in Phoenix with the Mercury\u2014where it all began, where she grew up, and where one day, she\u2019ll finally have to say goodbye.\n\u201cIt\u2019s going to be simple and quiet. No fireworks. No big ceremony. Just quiet,\u201d she says, mulling it over in her mind.\nNo dropping 60 in a game like Kobe did during his final season?\n\u201cI didn\u2019t say I wouldn\u2019t do that,\u201d Taurasi interrupts quickly. \u201cI just said it\u2019s going to be quiet.\u201d\nLyndsey D\u2019Arcangelo is a freelance writer from Buffalo, New York.

        "raw_content": "Tag Archives: Donal Ryan\nMan Booker 2013 \u2013 rural mayhem\nThere is no simple reason why I am writing about these two books, The Spinning Heart and Harvest, together other than that I read them one after the other. They neatly bookend a career, if what one reads in the Press is anything to go by, and they are both rural tales. Therein any other similarity vanishes.\nThe Spinning Heart by Donal Ryan is a first novel, a second is already near completion it seems. Set in Ireland after the Tiger economy has crashed and burned, we meet in each chapter another person affected, wounded or imperilled by the sudden change in their circumstances. Women who have been taken up and dumped or abused by their menfolk; employees who have been tricked by their employer, the aptly named Pokey Burke and men damaged by abusive parenting. It is all here in its appalling brutality, but nevertheless some of them have risen above it all and become sons and daughters to be proud of. Bobby Mahon is one of these: an abusive father whom he hates lives in a cottage which has the spinning heart of the title on its gate, a wrought iron heart. The father verbally abused the mother to her grave, forcing his son to distance himself from his mother to his great regret, so that the rift never healed; the father then drunk away the family fortune to spite his own (already deceased) father and lives on and on, seemingly to spite his own son who badly needs the cottage and its remaining land to capitalise on to get back on his feet after having been shafted by his employer\u2026you get the drift.\nSparely written, each new chapter adds another dimension to the previous one until the reader is left with a deepening sense of the pain and anguish, the spitefulness and small-mindedness of a rural community in crisis. The disappointments are riven though, from time to time, with a sense of the goodness of the few who have risen above it all and become decent people, and so the ending, which is not an ending is all the more powerful.\nOn the other hand, Harvest by Jim Crace is not so much about the spitefulness of people so much as the relentless demands of the land. This is rural England at around the turn of the 17th and 18th century, before enclosures. The villagers are still beholden to the manor, they till the fields, they sow the seed, they harvest the grain for the benefit of the lord of the manor, in return the lord of the manor dispenses justice, fairness and allows for the gleaning of the harvest for the people of the village to brew small ale and make porridge etc. Essentially a symbiotic relationship. But, possibly because village life is so enclosed, outsiders can pose a threat and are treated with suspicion. In this unfortunate circumstance, the novel opens with a scene of mischief that goes horribly wrong coinciding with the arrival of three newcomers. The mischief is suspected by at least one person in the village, Walter Thirsk, himself an in-comer but because of his silence a miscarriage of justice occurs and from this and other events, more disaster follows. Furthermore, there are changes afoot which will affect the whole village for better or worse, the title to the manor passes from one cousin to another, another with very different views as to the future\u2026\nAccording to the Press, Jim Crace has said this is his last novel. If this is so, he has not gone out with a whimper! Harvest stands up with the very best of his writing, and it breaks my heart to think that there will not be any more. This, like Quarantine, is not quite a reality tale but more of a allegory. The ur-village in this book and its inhabitants represent an age in Britain that has been lost forever and their losses stand for a much greater loss which we all have had to deal with one way or another. But the power of the writing lies in the lucidity of the prose, the deftness of touch that makes Jim Crace\u2019s book so memorable, and so re-readable. Just as village life changed irrecoverably once the fields were enclosed and the practice of arable agriculture turned to pasture, the sense of a shared community was also lost; where joint effort is replaced by singularity of purpose then what follows is the rise and rise of a \u2018me,my,mine\u2019 mentality and this in its turn led to capitalism and so on. Life dependent on the lord of the manor may not have been an idyll, but the shared sense of purpose both at good times and bad must have ameliorated the basics somewhat. Enclosure and what followed altered that, drove masses of people off the land and into the cities and the consequences for Britain remain visible and actual today.\nFiled under BOOK REVIEWS, Books, History, Modern History, Uncategorized\nTagged as Donal Ryan, enclosures, first novels, Harvest, Ireland, Jim Crace, Man Booker Prize, rural England\nWell, here it is a list of books waiting to be read. Some new writers, some old favourites but 13 books chosen by this year\u2019s panel under the Chairmanship of Robert MacFarlane. Since I am pretty sure this isn\u2019t Bobby MacFarlane the footballer, it must be the writer of such books as The Old Ways and Mountains of the Mind. I hope he will not mind if I compare his writing to Iain Sinclair, who does for London what Robert MacFarlane does for the countryside: render into words the earth beneath our feet. Mr MacFarlane, the writer, has also brought out a new book, graphically reviewed by another old friend, William Dalrymple, called Holloway, which I haven\u2019t read yet but will have waiting for me once I have got through THE LIST.\nOn to the list then: we have three new writers \u2013 NoViolet Bulawayo We Need New Names, Eve Harris The Marrying of Chani Kaufman, Donal Ryan The Spinning Heart; we have very long books \u2013 The Luminaries by Eleanor Catton which runs to over 800 pages and very short books \u2013 The Testament of Mary by Colm T\u00f3ibin, which latter has already been staged in America by Fiona Shaw, it was on in New York but I missed it by a whisker on my brief visit earlier this year, I was very disappointed indeed. There are previously listed authors who have not yet won \u2013 Tash Aw Five Star Billionaire, Jhumpa Lahiri (I think) The Lowland, and surprisingly Jim Crace, who was shortlisted for Quarantine, a truly remarkable book which went on to win other awards, but not The Booker, Mr Crace is long listed this year for Harvest, I read somewhere that he has said is his last book which is a pity. Along side those and no less interesting are Richard House The Kills, Colum McCann TransAtlantic, Charlotte Mendelson Almost English and Ruth Ozeki A Tale for the Time Being and Alison McLeod Unexploded.\nSo: no Khaled Hosseini, Samantha Harvey or Rachel Joyce all of whom are in my pile and will now have to wait. Unless the books that are not pulished until later this year haven\u2019t arrived before I am done with the other nine or ten.\nTagged as Alison MacLeod, Books, Charlotte Mendelson, Colm T\u00f3ibin, Colum McCann, Donal Ryan, Eleanor Catton, Eve Harris, Jhumpa Lahiri, Jim Crace, Novels, NoViolet Bulawayo, Richard House, Robert MacFarlane, Ruth Ozeki, Tash Aw, The Booker Prize",

        "raw_content": "Constitutional Limitations on the Ability of States to Rehabilitate Their Failed Electric Utility Restructuring Plans\nThis Article will review the constitutional limitations that come into play when a state seeks to rehabilitate its failed electric utility restructuring plan. Under the Constitution, utilities are entitled to earn a reasonable return on the assets devoted to public service. A situation in which retail rates are frozen may result in denial of a compensatory return if the electric utility is incurring higher costs to generate or procure its power supply. This is the traditional \"takings\" argument based on the Fifth Amendment to the Constitution, as applied to the states under the Fourteenth Amendment. Apart from this commonly asserted argument, however, a different constitutional issue arises in the context of proposed rate freezes. As a matter of procedural due process, a regulated utility cannot be deprived of its opportunity to demonstrate a need for rate relief to achieve the level of profitability that satisfies constitutional requirements. These procedural due process rights are imperiled when, for example, a state simply extends a rate freeze period and thereby denies the electric utility a hearing in which the utility would have an opportunity to make its case for higher rates.\nJames M.

It's still a bit rubbery/shiny and odd, but I think that's because they're using semi-realistic human proportions compared to the more cartoony CGI movies we have these days (Frozen, The Incredibles, etc.).\nFantastic trip report !! My last lengthy trip to Florida, I took a day and went to USO, and was surprised how much it had changed. It was several years between visits to USO because the last time before, I felt the same way as the first time going to MGM ( Hollywood Studios ) . Nice park, no big deal. My next trip down will have 2 days put aside for USO. Thanks for taking the time to make this report !\nThanks! Yeah, I was much more impressed with the Universal in Florida than I was with California's.\nHow good is Test Track & Despicable Me? Those were the only two \"Big\" things I didn't go on.\nI gotta say, this place is a MESS right now- scrims & boards up everywhere, and it REALLY compresses the crowds and creates massive logjams. The fact that it's far away from the resorts & parks makes it a pain to get to as well, so I only went the one day. I mean, why spend \"park day\" times in an outdoor shopping centre with huge bottlenecks, especially when it's a ways away from the parks? Disneyland's is a thousand times better- though smaller, it allows you to walk right out of a park and get stuff on a regular day.\nFor some reason, I wasn't as enamored with this World of Disney compared to the one at DL. I mean, I was in AWE of that place, and this one is even bigger, with more decorations and stuff. I think I just found the \"same old stuff\" here- there's an issue in the parks with merchandise that is all basically the same, so it's hard to find truly unique things outside of the Art Shops. Similarly, I don't think there's much new Merch since I was there last time, and a lot of this is also available in Disney Stores, so I didn't see any \"Unique Buys\". However, the Art of Disney store here is EXCELLENT, and I bought a bunch of fancy stuff from there. Unfortunately the coolest stores are all right up front, so I hit all the lamer, less-interesting stuff later on and got stuck in with the massive crowds. There's a clothing store for women with some great stuff to look at, too.\nThe food choices seem alright, though I was unfortunately there at an inconvenient time to make sudden dinner plans. PLAN YOUR EATING TIMES, PEOPLE- I didn't eat much during the day (it was the day I flew in), skipped lunch when I got there, and started searching around Downtown Disney for a few hours... then every place was booked-up for dinner and you couldn't even walk up to the bar anywhere, so I had to basically eat ice cream and assorted junk food for supper . Not a recommended diet plan, I would assume. Many of the restaurants look pretty cool, but aren't anything you couldn't find somewhere else- the T-Rex place looks fascinating, though it's mainly for hyperactive little boys (I hear the food is barely passable), the Irish Pub looks great, and I REALLY wanted to get into that Louisiana/House of Blues place.\nThe Merch in the Parks:\nThis was one of my favourite things to in Disneyland, but I found the offerings less interesting here- I'm pretty sure it's the same stuff, so maybe it's just the added time and plenty of browsing in Disney Stores at home making this \"less special\". Nothing much was really new in the past year and a half since I was at a Disney Park. I could have spent DAYS in the World of Disney Store in Cali, but here I was less-enthused. The stores all selling the same stuff was a bit of a downer, which is why I loved the little Belle-themed store in New Fantasyland. I find it funny that Disney can't produce Anna & Elsa dolls fast enough given that there are apparently 950,000,000 other Disney Princess Dolls in the world, because I saw dozens of each Princess in EVERY SINGLE GIFT SHOP THERE. I mean, it's not like this company doesn't have a history of over-producing their Merch, so it's a bit amusing that they're COMPLETELY out of Frozen stuff- even the dolls of the BOYS.\nAnother disappointment is the lack of stuff for males. It makes sense, given the Princess/Fairy focus (thinking about it, I didn't see anything for the new Pirate Fairy girl either- her stuff must also be selling quickly), but the fact is that girls get AMAZING clothing options, with beautiful art on them. Guys are left with goofy Mickey stuff, or a generic Star Wars shirt. Once again, the Belle Store has great stuff, mostly featuring Gaston. But unless I wanted to wear a woman's shirt with Belle on it, or some of those clothes with the FANTASTIC Princess art on them (the ones where the girls all have these big anime-inspired eyes, and Belle's smelling the flower with her head back- I have some pics of it on here), I was out of luck for the most part . I found some great stuff with Chernabog in Disneyland, so I know there are options out there, especially with so many great male villains. But it's a bit of a downer.\nUniversal's shops were even weaker, but their CityWalk thing is okay. I liked California's better, which is odd given that it's smaller and next to a smaller, weaker park. I just didn't get much out of being in the \"Generic Movie\" shops with less-iconic souvenirs. It didn't help that I was a bit rushed since the pick-up time for the Mears Transport buses has to be set ahead of time, and I was never sure how much I'd need. The Harry Potter-themed ones look great, but HOLY COW do they need to be bigger- each one was like being a rat in a trap- I can't imagine having to work in one of those for hours at a time. The best overall candy shop was actually the Potterverse one, though I find American fudge always tastes bad- is there something Americans put in chocolate to make it taste worse? I swear I've never had a really positive experience with the stuff in the States, save for chain stores. Of course, I was also limited in how much one person could carry, and I happened to be in most of the stores when I was already full, so I didn't gorge myself as much as I usually do while on vacation .",

Lindbeck, the Pitkin Professor Emeritus of Historical Theology at Yale and mentor to generations of YDS students over a teaching career that spanned more than four decades, was presented with the Alumni Award for Distinction in Theological Education.\nLindbeck, a prominent Lutheran theologian and major player in ecumenical relations, earned a Bachelor of Divinity degree from Yale Divinity School in 1946 and a Ph.D. in Religious Studies from Yale University in 1955.\nBorn in 1923, the son of Lutheran missionaries in China, Lindbeck came to the U.S. when he was 17. He earned his undergraduate degree from Gustavus Adolphus College in St. Peter, MN. In presenting the award, Alvord Beardslee, '53 B.D, '55 S.T.M., pointed to Lindbeck's contributions to ecumenical theology as a lasting legacy, calling Lindbeck \ufffda major teacher of major teachers.\ufffd For his part, Lindbeck told the audience, \ufffdThere is nothing that moves a teacher more than to have a student say they learned something from them.\ufffd He cited fellow Yale professors Hans Frei, Paul Holmer and David Kelsey as major influences on his thought.\nFrom 1951 until 1993, Lindbeck taught at the Divinity School and in the University's Department of Religious Studies. His ecumenical activities included service as a delegated observer of the Lutheran World Federation at the Second Vatican Council. He also was a member of the national and international Lutheran/Roman Catholic dialogue groups from their beginnings until his retirement from the Lutheran co-chairmanship of the international group in 1987.\nHe is a fellow of the American Academy of Arts & Sciences, a recipient of the Wilbur Cross Medal from the Yale Graduate School Alumni Association, and holds seven honorary doctorates from the U.S. and abroad. He is the author of numerous books, including The Nature of Doctrine (1984) and, most recently, The Church in a Postliberal Age (2002). He lives in West Burke, VT.",

As a result of this review, several changes to the Bylaws were proposed in order to bring our Division in compliance with APA policy, reflect changes following recent Executive Committee votes, and incorporate information from our recently completed Strategic Plan.\nThe Executive Committee reviewed and voted to approve the proposed changes. The next step in the process is to present the proposed changes to the membership, for your consideration and vote. You can find a copy of the Bylaws here, with all changes noted using track changes, as well as a explanation of the reason / purpose of the changes. APA Division services will be sending all voting members either an online or paper ballot to vote whether or not you approve these changes. Because the changes were deemed mostly related to cleaning up the document, rather than to substantial changes in action or intent of the Division, the vote will be either to approve or not approve all changes.\nFull description of Bylaw changes\nBrief overview of changes\nThroughout: Terms clarified and revised, as Executive Committee is most appropriately used to refer to the smallest body with the highest authority; the term Executive Committee is used to define the voting members of the Division and replaces the term Executive Board in logical places throughout the document.\nArticle I - As suggested in our rebranding effort, the organization name has been modified to be - \u201cRehabilitation Psychology, Division 22 of the APA\u201d\nArticle II - Based on recent strategic planning, the Division\u2019s updated Mission and Vision have been included.\nArticle IV, Section 2E \u2013 A statement about the mid-year conference has been deleted because it has been superseded by the MOU between the Division and the Academy. Striking this statement is not meant to imply that we will not have a mid-year conference but rather that the details are handled elsewhere.\nArticle V, Section 1 and 2 \u2013 The statement regarding the Student representative term has been moved from Section 2 to Section 1.\nIf you have questions or concerns about the Bylaw Revisions, this vote or the associated process please contact Division 22 President Michelle Meade.",

Here the assembly locations and the correct alignment of the components are shown.\nAll mechanical components of the kit are manufactured very precisely. Do not use force during assembly under any circumstances. All parts can be assembled without much effort.

This can lead to damage to the plastic parts, loss of warranty/guarantee!\nThe screws are already delivered pre-sorted in small bags. You can already open these before assembly and place them sorted by type on the worktable. This facilitates assembly, as you do not have to search for individual screws.\nSome screws, nuts and other small parts are included in the scope of delivery in larger quantities than is needed. These serve as a replacement if, for example, a screw or similar is lost during assembly.\nThe Pan & Tilt unit is the head mechanism (see picture 1) and can optionally be printed on a 3D printer.

Family mediation is generally a voluntary process. There is no obligation in Scotland to use ADR or mediation although once a family case is in court, the judge may ask for mediation to be undertaken.\nIf you wish to enforce the content of a mediation agreement in Scotland, either of the following procedures may be followed:\n\u2022 You can apply to the Court of Session or a Sheriff Court to ask the Court to \u201cinterpone\u201d its authority to the mediated agreement. This means the court uses its powers to change the mediation agreement into a court order.\n\u2022 Alternatively, \u201cself-proving\u201d written agreements can be registered for execution in the Books of Council and Session or in Sheriff Court Books. A self-proving document is one which meets the formalities to be treated as signed without needing proof. Rules about self-proving documents are contained in the Requirements of Writing (Scotland) Act 1995. To register the agreement in the Books of Council and Session, you should apply to the Keeper of the Registers of Scotland.\nWhen an agreement is registered for execution, the document becomes an authentic instrument.\nAgreements that have been endorsed by the Court or registered by either of the methods outlined above may be enforceable in other EU Member States.\nFamily mediators in Scotland can be found on the Scottish Mediation Network website.\nInformation about mediation in Scotland, including family mediation, is available on the Scottish Mediation Network website.\nNational legislation on family mediation\nAs there is no obligation to use mediation in family disputes, there is relatively little national legislation.\nHowever, the Civil Evidence (Family Mediation) (Scotland) Act 1995 makes provision on the inadmissibility as evidence in civil proceedings in Scotland of information as to what occurred during family mediation.",

        "raw_content": "Human CD8+ CTL recognition and in vitro lysis of herpes simplex virus-infected cells by a non-MHC restricted mechanism\nCytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) are important for the recognition and lysis of virally infected cells, but their effectiveness can be limited by viral immune evasion mechanisms. We investigated the immunophenotype and function of human CD8+ T cells raised in response to herpes simplex virus (HSV). The expanded population contained cells of an activated and mature phenotype, as determined by the expressions of CD25, CD45RO, CD57, CD95 and HLA-DR. Cultured cells also expressed CD45RA. These cells lysed autologous and allogeneic HSV-infected lymphoblastoid cell line (LCL) targets via a non-major histocompatibility complex (MHC) restricted recognition pathway. Inhibition assays showed the mechanism of cytotoxicity to be calcium-dependent, granule exocytosis pathway, rather than the internal disintegration pathway. Cold target competition assays indicated that a common CTL population contributed to the recognition of autologous and allogeneic-infected targets. These effectors showed recognition of infected targets which was distinct from that of K562 cells. Non-MHC restricted lysis-associated molecule 2B4 (CD244) was upregulated on culturing and made a significant contribution to lysis of Fc\u03b3R-bearing targets in a redirected killing assay. These findings suggest that CTL can recognize virally infected cells through a combination of non-MHC restricted mechanisms and may result in more efficient lysis than classical CD8+ T cells.\nR. J.

        "raw_content": "Dispersive prism\n(Redirected from Triangular prism (optics))\n\"Triangular prism (optics)\" redirects here. For optical prisms used outside of spectroscopy, see Prism.\nPhotograph of a triangular prism, dispersing light\nLamps as seen through a prism\nIn optics, a dispersive prism is an optical prism, usually having the shape of a geometrical triangular prism, used as a spectroscopic component. Spectral dispersion is the best known property of optical prisms, although not the most frequent purpose of using optical prisms in practice. Triangular prisms are used to disperse light, that is, to break light up into its spectral components (the colors of the rainbow). Different wavelengths (colors) of light will be deflected by the prism at different angles, producing a spectrum on a detector (or seen through an eyepiece). This is a result of the prism's material (often, but not always, a glass) index of refraction varying with wavelength. By application of Snell's law, one can see that as the wavelength changes, and the refractive index changes, the deflection angle of a light beam will change, separating the colors (wavelength components) of the light spatially. Generally, longer wavelengths (red) thereby undergo a smaller deviation than shorter wavelengths (blue) where the refractive index is larger.\nA good mathematical description of single-prism dispersion is given by Born and Wolf.[1] The case of multiple-prism dispersion is treated by Duarte.[2]\nThe dispersion of white light into colors by a prism led Sir Isaac Newton to conclude that light consisted of a mixture of different colors, which when combined could appear \"white.\"\nAlthough the refractive index is dependent on the wavelength in every material, some materials have a much more powerful wavelength dependence (are much more dispersive) than others. Crown glasses such as BK7 have a relatively small dispersion, while flint glasses have a much stronger dispersion (for visible light) and hence are more suitable for use as dispersive prisms. Fused quartz and other optical materials are used at ultraviolet and infrared wavelengths where normal glasses become opaque.\nThe top angle of the prism (the angle of the edge between the input and output faces) can be widened to increase the spectral dispersion. However it is often chosen so that both the incoming and outgoing light rays hit the surface at around the Brewster angle; beyond the Brewster angle reflection losses increase greatly. Most frequently, dispersive prisms are equilateral (apex angle of 60 degrees) where this is approximately the case.\nTypes of dispersive prism include:\nPellin\u2013Broca prism\nCompound prism\nGrating and prism mountingsEdit\nThere are six grating/prism configurations which are considered to be \"classics\":[3]\nPaschen-Runge\nEbert-Fasti\nLittrow\nGrisms (grating prisms)Edit\nMain article: Grism\nA diffraction grating may be ruled onto one face of a prism to form an element called a \"grism\". Spectrographs are extensively used in astronomy to observe the spectra of stars and other astronomical objects. Insertion of a grism in the collimated beam of an astronomical imager transforms that camera into a spectrometer, since the beam still continues in approximately the same direction when passing through it. The deflection of the prism is constrained to exactly cancel the deflection due to the diffraction grating at the spectrometer's central wavelength.\nA different sort of spectrometer component called an immersed grating also consists of a prism with a diffraction grating ruled on one surface. However in this case the grating is used in reflection, with light hitting the grating from inside the prism before being totally internally reflected back into the prism (and leaving from a different face). The reduction of the light's wavelength inside the prism results in an increase of the resulting spectral resolution by the ratio of the prism's refractive index to that of air.\nWith either a grism or immersed grating, the primary source of spectral dispersion is the grating. Any effect due to chromatic dispersion from the prism itself is incidental, as opposed to actual prism-based spectrometers.\nAn artist's rendition of a dispersive prism is seen on the cover of Pink Floyd's The Dark Side of the Moon, one of the best-selling albums of all time. The iconic graphic shows a coherent ray of white light entering the prism and beginning to disperse, and shows the spectrum leaving the prism.\nMultiple-prism dispersion theory\nMultiple-prism grating laser oscillators\n^ M.

Robert Legnani.\n1 Founding and erection\n2 Early Church history and architecture\n3 St. Stephen's stained glass windows\n4 Church preservation effort\nFounding and erection[edit]\nThe congregation of St. Stephen's Episcopal Church formed in 1837 at the request of 44 families to Bishop Doane of the Episcopal Diocese of New Jersey for services of the church in the City of Beverly. The first church, a white frame building erected on Copper Street, had an adjacent cemetery that still exists today. When the City of Beverly was incorporated in 1857, St. Stephen's established would become Beverly's first church.\nBy 1853, the congregation had outgrown the original wood church and land was purchased at the corner of Warren and Wilmerton Streets for a new structure. The new property allowed for the construction of a larger more elaborate church. The location also increased the prominence of the parish by its place on Warren Street, a main transportation corridor between Beverly, Burlington City and other industrial river towns. The church's steeple acted as a landmark beacon for shippers on the Delaware. On October 1, 1855, the present St. Stephen's Church was consecrated by the second bishop of the Diocese of New Jersey, the Right Reverend George W. Doane.[2]\nEarly Church history and architecture[edit]\nBuilt between 1853 and 1855, St. Stephen's represents a period in church architecture that sought to revive the spirit of the Gothic parish church, creating a worship space that was both spiritually reverential while at the same time expressing an architectural vocabulary of rational truth; in the building's ornament, materials and plan.\nThis return to the English Gothic architectural form was promoted in the 1830s in England and was at its height in America when St. Stephen's was constructed. The Ecclesiology movement was a reaction to a period in church history when architectural form of new churches became increasingly variable. The Ecclesiology movement feared this informality and inconsistency distracted from the basic moral and theological mission of the church.\nThe Basic principles underlying the Ecclesiological model church, which are exemplified in St. Stephen's, are a simple plan, basic materials and ornament that is complementary to the overall simplicity of the church.\nThe plan of the Ecclesiological church is simple: the nave (the portion of the church containing the center aisle and pews) and the chancel (the portion of the church containing the altar and choir). Ideally, the materials of the church should be stone, but wood could be used with the hope that the means to afford stone would become available in the future. The ornament of St. Stephen's, both simple and elegant in its execution, illustrates the restrained propriety the Ecclesiologists used in creating the medieval sense of the place they felt most spiritually truthful in a place of worship.\nWhile much has changed outside the walls of St. Stephen's Church since its construction, the church interior that is similar to what visitors have been seeing for the better part of 130 years. The photographs show the view looking through the nave to the altar from just inside of the church interior doors.\nAt the ceiling, a hybrid truss-arch system of roof support resembles the inside of a ship's hull. Though these structural timbers seem massive, they are actually secondary to the main rafters that are buried under the ceiling plaster. [2]\nSt. Stephen's stained glass windows[edit]\nThe collection of stained glass windows of St. Stephen's Church displays a historically significant range of stained glass styles from the 1850s into the early 20th century. Generally, the age of the windows range from the oldest located in the chancel to the newest located in the vestibule. St. Stephen's has windows ranging from the textured muffle and reeded glass panels of mid-19th century American Gothic windows; to works by J.R. Lamb, a rival of the Tiffany Glass studios; and even comparatively modern windows dated from the 1970s and 80s by Cherry Hill artist F. Paul Skelly.[2]\nChurch preservation effort[edit]\nWith the help of architectural firm Farewell Mills & Gatsch, the St. Stephen's community navigated through a seven-year-long New Jersey Historical Trust grants process obtaining awards for a preservation plan, engineering studies and finally construction.\nWu & Associates, Inc, the selected preservation contractor from nearby Cherry Hill, New Jersey, focused on restoring the church's \u201cbeacon\u201d feature, the steeple. Following a lightning strike in 1983 the structure burned down two-thirds of the way. While the immediate problem was solved with a lightning rod, the replacement cedar shakes continued to be damaged by area wildlife.\nSteeple Work at St. Stephen's\nIn accordance with the New Jersey Historic Trust's wishes to preserve the origin of the church, the community and construction team researched the church's history. According to some old photos and a 1909 postcard, the steeple looks as dark as the roof and there is a good chance the original was slate as the newly constructed roof was decided upon.\nSteel girding anchored in the tower masonry walls rather than the 150-year-old wood beams now support the steeple. New flooring, fresh but historically accurate paint colors, a clean church bell, and a releaded and repaired stained glass window in the tower were all additional improvements in St. Stephen's preservation efforts.\nWhile the range of stained-glass window styles and woodwork within the building are the most elaborate of the church's designs, Wu & Associates work stabilizing the structure and preserving the simplicity of the building's design was important in saving the history of its architectural story and its place in Beverly's.\nThe grants funding the project were supplemented by not only the contributions of members, highlighted by the over $4,000 raised by the parish children's \u201cMile of Nickels\u201d campaign, but also businesses and other people in the larger town community.[3]\n^ a b c \"St. Stephen's Beverly\".

        "raw_content": "New Massachusetts Regulations On Hazardous Material Storage\nThe Chemical Safety and Hazard Investigation Board (CSB) has approved changes to Massachusetts regulations on hazardous materials storage and processing in the state, which includes monitoring of high risk facilities to ensure they are complying with key federal process safety and risk management programs.\nThe Massachusetts Department of Fire Services has satisfied a key recommendation made by the CSB in its 2008 final report on the 2006 explosion at an ink and paint products manufacturing facility in Danvers, MA. The CSB concluded that an unattended mixing tank overheated in an unventilated building causing the release of flammable vapors which subsequently ignited. The facility stored alcohols, heptanes, other solvents, pigments, resin and nitrocellulose; all of which were destroyed in the explosion. In addition, 24 houses and 6 businesses were destroyed.\nAn investigation found that the company had increased its quantities of flammable liquids over the years. The additional quantities went undetected by local authorities who had not inspected the facility for over 4 years prior to the time of the incident.\nMassachusetts now requires companies storing and handling flammable materials to amend their license and re-register with state or local authorities when increasing their quantities of flammable materials; they must also verify compliance with local and state fire codes and hazardous chemical regulations. The Massachusetts regulations classify hazardous materials into five categories based on threshold quantities. Categories 1\u20134 must be in compliance with OSHA's Hazard Communication standard. Category 5, under which the ink and paint product manufacturing facility would have fallen, requires companies to certify compliance with the OSHA Process Safety Management standard and with the EPA Risk Management Program regulation.\nLabels: Chemical Hazard, Hazardous Materials, Massachusetts, OSHA, RMP, State Requirements",

For government statistical purposes, it is placed in the East of England region.\nIn 2013, the county had a population of 1,140,700 living in an area of. Four towns have between 50,000 and 100,000 residents: Hemel Hempstead, Stevenage, Watford and St Albans. Hertford, once the main market town for the medieval agricultural county, derives its name from a hart and a ford, used as the components of the countys coat of arms and flag. Elevations are high for the region in the north and west. These reach over 240m in the western projection around Tring which is in the Chilterns. The countys borders are approximately the watersheds of the Colne and Lea; both flowing to the south; each accompanied by a canal. Hertfordshires undeveloped land is mainly agricultural and much is protected by green belt.\nThe countys landmarks span many centuries, ranging from the Six Hills in the new town of Stevenage built by local inhabitants during the Roman period, to Leavesden Film Studios. Leavesden filmed much of the UK-based $7.7 Bn box office Harry Potter film series and has the countrys studio tour. The volume of intact medieval and Tudor buildings surpasses London, in places in well-preserved conservation areas, especially in St Albans which includes some remains of Verulamium, the town where in the 3rd century an early recorded British martyrdom took place. Saint Alban, a Romano-British soldier, took the place of a Christian priest and was beheaded on Holywell Hill. His martyrs cross of a yellow saltire on a blue background is reflected in the flag and coat of arms of Hertfordshire.\nHertfordshire is well-served with motorways and railways, providing good access to London. The largest sector of the economy of the county is in services.",

However, the results of a new study that compares brain activity in individuals with and without fibromyalgia indicate that decreased connectivity between pain-related and sensorimotor brain areas could contribute to deficient pain regulation in fibromyalgia, according to an article published in Brain Connectivity, a peer-reviewed journal from Mary Ann Liebert, Inc., publishers. The article is available free on the Brain Connectivity website at http://online.liebertpub.com/doi/full/10.1089/brain.2014.0274 until November 1, 2014.\nThe new study by P\u00e4r Flodin and coauthors from Karolinska Institutet (Stockholm, Sweden) builds on previous findings in fibromyalgia that showed abnormal neuronal activity in the brain associated with poor pain inhibition. In the current study, \"Fibromyalgia is Associated with Decreased Connectivity between Pain- and Sensorimotor Brain Areas\", the researchers report a pattern of \"functional decoupling\" between pain-related areas of the brain that process pain signals and other areas of the brain, such as those that control sensorimotor activity in fibromyalgia patients compared to healthy patients, in the absence of any external pain stimulus. As a result, normal pain perception may be impaired.\n\"Fibromyalgia is an understudied condition with an unknown cause that can only be diagnosed by its symptoms,\" says Christopher Pawela, PhD, Co-Editor-in-Chief of Brain Connectivity and Assistant Professor, Medical College of Wisconsin. \"This study by Flodin et al is an important first step in the understanding of how the brain is involved in the widespread pain perception that is characteristic of the disorder.\"\nBrain Connectivity is the essential peer-reviewed journal covering groundbreaking findings in the rapidly advancing field of connectivity research at the systems and network levels.

And critics say the proposed change could lead to higher levels of exposure for workers at nuclear installations and oil and gas drilling sites, medical workers doing X-rays and CT scans, people living next to Superfund sites and any members of the public who one day might find themselves exposed to a radiation release.\nThe Trump administration already has targeted a range of other regulations on toxins and pollutants, including coal power plant emissions and car exhaust, that it sees as costly and burdensome for businesses. Supporters of the EPA\u2019s new proposal argue the government\u2019s current no-tolerance rule for radiation damage forces unnecessary spending for handling exposure in accidents, at nuclear plants, in medical centers and at other sites.\n\u201cThis would have a positive effect on human health as well as save billions and billions and billions of dollars,\u201d said Edward Calabrese, a toxicologist at the University of Massachusetts who is to be the lead witness at a congressional hearing Wednesday on EPA\u2019s proposal.\nCalabrese, who made those remarks in a 2016 interview with a California nonprofit, was quoted by EPA in its announcement of the proposed rule in April. He declined repeated requests for an interview with The Associated Press. The EPA declined to make an official with its radiation-protection program available.\nThe regulation change is now out for public comment, with no specific date for adoption.\nRadiation is everywhere, from potassium in bananas to the microwaves popping our popcorn. Most of it is benign. But what\u2019s of concern is the higher-energy, shorter-wave radiation, like X-rays, that can penetrate and disrupt living cells, sometimes causing cancer.\nAs recently as this March, the EPA\u2019s online guidelines for radiation effects advised: \u201cCurrent science suggests there is some cancer risk from any exposure to radiation.\u201d\n\u201cEven exposures below 100 millisieverts\u201d \u2014 an amount roughly equivalent to 25 chest X-rays or about 14 CT chest scans \u2014 \u201cslightly increase the risk of getting cancer in the future,\u201d the agency\u2019s guidance said.\nBut that online guidance \u2014 separate from the rule-change proposal \u2014 was edited in July to add a section emphasizing the low individual odds of cancer: \u201cAccording to radiation safety experts, radiation exposures of \u2026100 millisieverts usually result in no harmful health effects, because radiation below these levels is a minor contributor to our overall cancer risk,\u201d the revised policy says.\nMainstream scientific consensus on radiation is based on deceptive science, says Calabrese, who argued in a 2014 essay for \u201crighting the past deceptions and correcting the ongoing errors in environmental regulation.\u201d\nEPA spokesman John Konkus said in an email that the proposed rule change is about \u201cincreasing transparency on assumptions\u201d about how the body responds to different doses of dangerous substances and that the agency \u201cacknowledges uncertainty regarding health effects at low doses\u201d and supports more research on that.\nBut Jan Beyea, a physicist whose work includes research with the National Academies of Science on the 2011 Fukushima nuclear power plant accident, said the EPA proposal on radiation and other health threats represents voices \u201cgenerally dismissed by the great bulk of scientists.\u201d\nThe EPA proposal would lead to \u201cincreases in chemical and radiation exposures in the workplace, home and outdoor environment, including the vicinity of Superfund sites,\u201d Beyea wrote.\n\u201cThe individual risk will likely be low, but not the cumulative social risk,\u201d Beyea said.\n\u201cIf they even look at that \u2014 no, no, no,\u201d said Terrie Barrie, a resident of Craig, Colorado, and an advocate for her husband and other workers at the now-closed Rocky Flats nuclear-weapons plant, where the U.S. government is compensating certain cancer victims regardless of their history of exposure.\n\u201cThere\u2019s no reason not to protect people as much as possible,\u201d said Barrie.\nIf there were a threshold that it\u2019s safe to go below, \u201cthose who profess that would have to come up with some data,\u201d Shore said in an interview.\n\u201cCertainly the evidence did not point that way,\u201d he said.\nThe EPA tucked its proposed relaxation of radiation guidelines into its \u201ctransparency in science\u201d proposal in April. The proposal would require regulators to consider \u201cvarious threshold models across the exposure range\u201d when it comes to dangerous substances.\nWhile the EPA rule change doesn\u2019t specify that it\u2019s addressing radiation and chemicals, the EPA\u2019s official press release announcing the change does.\nSupporters of the proposal say it\u2019s time to rethink radiation regulation.\n\u201cRight now we spend an enormous effort trying to minimize low doses\u201d at nuclear power plants, for example, said Brant Ulsh, a physicist with the California-based consulting firm M.H. Chew and Associates. \u201cInstead, let\u2019s spend the resources on minimizing the effect of a really big event.\u201d\ncancerEPAradiation",

        "raw_content": "8 Myths About Infertility\nHome Posts8 Myths About Infertility\nThe inability to give birth to a child is a very personal and stressful life experience. Because there are so many rumors and bad information about infertility, sometimes the lack of understanding about the basic facts can often lead to panic. The truth is there are so many different factors that go into a successful pregnancy that it is tough to put faith in the process unless you have correct information. At The Fertility Institute, we want to help you make informed decisions about your family planning. Here are 8 myths we would like to dispel, so you will have less to worry about.\nMyth #1: Women Who Take Birth Control Become Infertile\nThe Facts: There are no methods of contraception that cause infertility. Some women get pregnant soon after stopping birth control, even within the first month. While using the pill, the patch, the ring and IUDs will bring an almost immediate return to fertility, other contraception methods such as implants or injection may take several months.\nMyth #2: Having an Irregular Menstrual Cycle Is a Sign of Infertility\nThe Facts: Having an irregular period means a woman may have a harder time predicting ovulation or may not ovulate at all. It is true that conception will more difficult during those months however irregular periods do not guarantee impaired fertility. Women can have irregular periods for a variety of reasons, ranging from stress and over exercise to more serious health issues such as endometriosis. Not all of these factors threaten the ability to conceive.\nMyth #3: A Woman\u2019s Age Doesn\u2019t Effect Fertility\nThe Facts: According to the American Society of Reproductive Medicine, a woman\u2019s best reproductive years are in her 20s, with fertility gradually declining in her 30s, particularly after age 35. When trying to conceive within one year, women aged 20\u201324 have an 86 percent chance of pregnancy whereas women aged 30\u201334 have a 63 percent chance. Conceiving at a later age also increases the risk of pregnancy complications, such as gestational diabetes and chromosomally abnormal fetuses.\nMyth #4: Women Who Have PCOS or Endometriosis are Unable to Conceive\nThe Facts: In 50% of the women with infertility, up to 10 percent of women have components of polycystic ovarian syndrome and roughly 6 to 10 percent of women have endometriosis. Although these conditions are not optimal for pregnancy, they just mean that women grappling with these health issues may require help to conceive. Even if a woman is not yet ready to conceive, it is advised that she speak with her doctors early to get an understanding of how these conditions may affect her reproductive health and what can be done to improve it.\nMyth #6: Fertility Issues Are a Woman\u2019s Problem\nThe Facts: Infertility has a nearly equal chance of being a man\u2019s fault as a woman\u2019s. According to the American Society for Reproductive Medicine, 35 percent of infertility is attributed to the male partner, 35 percent to the female partner, 20 percent to both partners and 10 percent to unknown causes.\nMyth #7: Infertility Is Rare\nThe Facts: Infertility is defined as the failure of a couple to conceive after one year of unprotected intercourse. Although many women conceive without difficulty, 1 in 10 couples are infertile in the United States and approximately 15% of American women of childbearing age receive infertility care annually. Certain health conditions and factors, such as age, can affect a woman\u2019s ability to conceive. For example, a healthy 30-year-old woman has a 20 percent chance of getting pregnant each month, however by age 40, her chances drop to about 5 percent a month. Infertility can affect women of any age and from any background.\nMyth #8: Infertility is a Psychological Problem\nThe Facts: Infertility is a disease or condition of the reproductive system, not a psychological disorder. Although the disappointment and frustration associated with wanting a child and experiencing failure is very well recognized, the reality is that infertility always has an underlying physical cause.\nMyth #9: Infertility Treatments Such as IVF are Too Expensive\nThe Facts: The truth is that treatments such as IVF are expensive but many couples find that there are acceptable ways to manage the costs: Health insurance may cover a portion of the cost, there may be low interest loans or grant money available or you can save until your money is banked for this very special use. The other truth is, although IVF is usually every couple\u2019s best chance for pregnancy, most couples have other options to choose from.",

How do they measure happiness?\nProduced by the UN Sustainable Development Solutions Network (SDSN) and carried out by independent researchers, the report takes into account six key variables that \u201chave been found to support wellbeing,\u201d it says. They are income, healthy life expectancy, social support, freedom, trust and generosity.\nFinland jumped from fifth place to displace the previous number one, Norway, which moved to number two. Another Nordic neighbor, Denmark, took third place, followed by Iceland, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Canada and New Zealand. Sweden is ninth.\nNew in the 2018 report is a ranking of immigrant happiness, based on Gallup data spanning 2005 to 2017. \u201cPerhaps the most striking finding of the whole report,\u201d says the report, \u201cis that a ranking of countries according to the happiness of their immigrant populations is almost exactly the same as for the rest of the population.\u201d This means that the happiness of immigrants to a country \u201cconverges\u201d with that of the country\u2019s general population. Finland also leads the table entitled Happiness Ranking for the Foreign-Born.\n\u201cThe happiest immigrants are not [those in] the richest countries,\u201d say the report authors, \u201cbut instead [those in] countries with a more balanced set of social and institutional supports for better lives.\u201d\nEconomyFinlandLifestyleSociety\nBetween January 1, 2017 and December 31, 2018, Finland is piloting a basic-income programme with 2,000 people to see if it holds the key to increasing employment and simplifying the social security system.\nTagged in Economy, Employment, Finland, Finnishness, Social innovations, Social security\nThe simple strength of Finnish education\nSeveral years in Finland allow an American schoolteacher and blogger to observe what makes the Finnish education system so good \u2013 the answer is simpler than you think.\nTagged in Education, Finland, Finnishness, Society, Teaching\nTagged in Education, Finland, Finnishness, Multiculturalism, Society",

I\u2019m already trying to play catch-up in February, but I\u2019m trying to be kind to myself this year, even if that means I don\u2019t meet all of my goals.\nThis was a far cry from the 15k I was planning to add to this story. It\u2019s really hard, you guys.\nI\u2019m still working on it, but I\u2019ve decided not to push too hard. I\u2019m just going to make myself miserable, and I don\u2019t want to be miserable writing this series. I love it too much to be miserable while working on it.

Still not great, but better. I don\u2019t really know what else to say here, so we\u2019ll just move on.\nThis is a silly little thing that I\u2019m totally counting in my word count.

NONE.\nWhat\u2019s Coming Up in February\nOkay, now that the trainwreck is over, let\u2019s get into February! It\u2019s actually going pretty well (better than January, anyway), so I\u2019m setting a goal of 75,000 on my WordKeeperAlpha to try to make up for last month.\nI\u2019m not setting a word goal for this. I\u2019m just gonna play it by ear and see what happens. It\u2019s not a good idea, I know this, but I just do not have the heart to set myself up for failure with this project. So, in an effort to be kind to myself, I\u2019m taking a break, at least on this one.

It\u2019s been such a long time coming, I\u2019m actually tired of looking at it, it\u2019s time for it to go.\nThat\u2019s all I have for now.

Nothing you've said or quoted changes that.

But I will continue to insist that all the documentation I've seen shows it does, as long as that continues to be true. (SMS is very different from voice service, which is not engineered to guarantee delivery.) If you are trying to lawyer that the SMS service AT&T provides doesn't refer to the standard SMS protocol / system, which your use of the wording \"the term\" suggests, be my guest. I concede that if AT&T wanted to cower behind its TOS disclaimers (which, BTW should clearly indicate that it does attempt to block SMS spam) as a reason for not providing credit for defective service, it could attempt to do so. AT&T SMS service is unreliable for no good reason, and AT&T won't own up to that truth. Nigh everything you've said is a distraction to obfuscate that fact.\n@AboutToGoPostal\n5 years ago you posted this:\nSince you are using a 3 rd party message service, how does this in any way become an ATT problem?\nIts kind of like blaming the post office when your UPS package doesn't arrive.\nIf you want to stick your head in the sand and pretend that the documentation of the SMS protocol and system doesn't show that it is engineered to guarantee delivery, go ahead. But I will continue to insist that all the documentation I've seen shows it does, as long as that continues to be true..\nVery interesting thread. I've never thought of SMS as being a guaranteed delivery protocol. As for documentation of that, I believe this is the \"official\" SMS rfc: https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc5724.txt. I quote this from paragraph 4:\n\"SMS messages very often are delivered almost instantaneously (if the receiving SMS client is online), but there is no guarantee for when SMS messages will be delivered. In particular, SMS messages between different network operators sometimes take a long time to be delivered (hours or even days) or are not delivered at all, so applications SHOULD NOT make any assumptions about the reliability and performance of SMS message transmission.\"\nJust plug in \"google voice text messages not being received\" in browser and I get a ton of responses. 5 years fussing over ATT when you should be troubleshooting your GV account.\nVery interesting thread. I've never thought of SMS as being a guaranteed delivery protocol. As for documentation of that, I believe this is the \"official\" SMS rfc: https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc5724.txt.\nWow, how deceptive can you be?

        "raw_content": "In-school proposal!!\nJune 2009 in Proposals\nJune 6, 2009: It's a typical Friday at school. The last class of the day is 6th grade choir rehearsal in the auditorium, and it's our last rehearsal of the year. I'm stressed, because they're getting dismissed early from rehearsal to go get their yearbooks in homeroom...plus we have a performance on Monday as part of the awards assembly so I want to run through the song for that, and since it's the last rehearsal of the year I'd made brownies and we needed time to eat those before they go back to homeroom. 5 minutes into the warm-up, the guidance secretary comes in to the auditorium and informs me that there is a package in the main office that I have to go sign for immediately - the delivery guy won't leave until he gets my signature. I protest that I only have 15 more minutes in my rehearsal...can't it wait until the end of the day? She insists that it can't, I just need to run down there, and she'll watch the kids until I get back. I put on the CD with the background track on it so they can sing through the song while I'm gone, and run down to the office. When I get to the office, and there is no delivery guy standing there - just 2 dozen roses in a vase on the counter with a note that says \"I can't wait to see you tonight!\" The secretary smiles and says \"I wanted you to get these now instead of waiting until the end of the day!\" Meanwhile, I'm thinking how ridiculous it was for her to interrupt my rehearsal just to give me these roses, and it most certainly could have waited until the end of the day. But oh well. The roses are from my boyfriend, of course, and at this point I'm thinking he's definitely going to propose tonight! (We'd been talking about this for a while, and I suspected it was going to happen sometime soon.) I quickly walk back to the auditorium, roses in hand, to continue my rehearsal. I walk into the auditorium and the CD is still playing and the kids are still singing. As I walk to the front of the choir, they stop singing, and one of my students comes up to me and hands me a note that says \"Say 'YES!'\" Then Matt comes over, takes my hands, and gets down on one knee to propose!!! Of course, I say \"yes,\" he kisses me, and my kids start cheering. Some of them are even crying!My students are very important to me, and my boyfriend knew that, so this was a wonderfully romantic and memorable way to propose. I will always cherish this memory...and there are about 40 sixth graders who won't forget it either!!\nRe: In-school proposal!!\nschuette2",

HOW DOES GOD \u201cMAKE A WAY TO ESCAPE\u2026?\u201d\nFirst Corinthians 10:13 says: \u201cThere hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.\u201d What is the \u201ctemptation\u201d here? Is it a trial, trouble, difficulty, hardship, sickness\u2014what? And how does God \u201cmake a way to escape?\u201d We turn to other verses for interpretation.\nThere is some confusion about \u201ctemptation\u201d and the King James Bible. We often think of \u201ctemptation\u201d as an enticement to sin, but that is not always the sense of the word. Our English term \u201ctempt\u201d is from the Latin temptare, meaning, \u201cto test, try, handle.\u201d Hence, temptation in Scripture means \u201cexamine to see what is really inside; try; test.\u201d The word \u201ctemptation\u201d in 1 Corinthians 10:13 means any situation or set of circumstances that exposes what is really inside of us. Either there will be good results (passing), or bad results (failing). Sin is not necessarily in view with temptation.\nFor example, look at Genesis 22:1: \u201cAnd it came to pass after these things, that God did tempt Abraham, and said unto him, Abraham: and he said, Behold, here I am.\u201d Now, Hebrews 11:17: \u201cBy faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered up Isaac: and he that had received the promises offered up his only begotten son,\u2026.\u201d Notice how \u201ctempt\u201d and \u201ctried\u201d are interchangeable. \u201cTrials\u201d and \u201ctemptations\u201d are synonyms. A temptation is a trying, a testing, an examination. And, certainly, God did not tempt Abraham to sin. He wanted to reveal what was inside of Abraham (faith, trust in God\u2019s Word).\nIn the context of 1 Corinthians 10:13, Israel\u2019s circumstances manifested her unbelief. The chapter opens: \u201c[1] Moreover, brethren, I would not that ye should be ignorant, how that all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea; [2] And were all baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea; [3] And did all eat the same spiritual meat; [4] And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ.\n\u201c[5] But with many of them God was not well pleased: for they were overthrown in the wilderness. [6] Now these things were our examples, to the intent we should not lust after evil things, as they also lusted. [7] Neither be ye idolaters, as were some of them; as it is written, The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play. [8] Neither let us commit fornication, as some of them committed, and fell in one day three and twenty thousand. [9] Neither let us tempt Christ, as some of them also tempted, and were destroyed of serpents. [10] Neither murmur ye, as some of them also murmured, and were destroyed of the destroyer.\u201d\nInstead of being thankful to the LORD God for all that He did for them (delivering them from Egyptian slavery, being with them personally, giving Moses to be their leader, giving them food and water miraculously, and so on), instead of being faithful to and trusting His Word; Israel doubted, complained, rebelled, and followed idols. They wanted to return to their old lifestyle in Egypt (captivity to sin, Satan, the world). Every situation listed in the above passage exposed Israel\u2019s unbelief, doubt. Israel failed God miserably time and time again. They did not want to be His people and did not want to do His will. They were totally ignorant of His Word to them.\nIn verses 11-15, the Apostle Paul makes application for us: \u201c[11] Now all these things happened unto them for examples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come. [12] Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall. [13] There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it. [14] Wherefore, my dearly beloved, flee from idolatry. [15] I speak as to wise men; judge ye what I say.\u201d\nFriends, we should be careful not to repeat Israel\u2019s mistakes. Firstly, we should be thankful for our provisions in Christ, our identity in Christ, our blessings in Christ. Secondly, we should not get haughty and say, \u201cWe are so \u2018spiritual\u2019 that we would never do what Israel did! We \u2018love\u2019 God too much! We are so \u2018much better\u2019 than the Jews of old!\u201d That is what verse 12 speaks against: \u201cWherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall.\u201d Such \u201cholier-than-thou\u201d pride would cause\u2014and had caused\u2014the Corinthians (and us Christians even today) to repeat Israel\u2019s mistakes. If you read the context (chapters 8-11 of 1 Corinthians), you see that the Corinthian saints were engaged in idolatry, false religion. Satan was using false religion to corrupt them as he used it to pollute ancient Israel. Even today, Satan\u2019s religious system poisons many Christians (thousands of denominations and millions of wrong ideas).\nSo, back to your questions about 1 Corinthians 10:13: \u201cThere hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.\u201d The \u201cescape\u201d is not to have the difficulty/problem/hardship removed. Rather, God leaves us in the situation to see whether we will follow/believe His Word (like Abraham) or whether we will ignore/disbelieve His Word (like Israel). God does not send those hardships upon us; do not misunderstand me. He permits them, and they are opportunities for us to see what is really inside of us\u2014faith or doubt.\nWe will \u201cbear\u201d or carry/experience/endure the temptation, and we will \u201cescape\u201d it by relying on the strength the Word of God gives us. In the case of 1 Corinthians 10:13, the issue is idolatry (but again, the principles can be applied generally to any time of trial or testing to see how we react). God\u2019s Word will give us the internal capacity to overcome/triumph, but we must have God\u2019s Word in the first place. Israel was not walking by faith in God\u2019s Word, so they had no ability to succeed. Unless we have the Word stored in our soul, we too will fail.\nAfter all of that, the Holy Spirit through Paul tells us, \u201cWherefore, my dearly beloved, flee from idolatry\u201d (verse 14). See, again, we can \u201cbear\u201d the difficulty, hardship, time of testing, trial, et cetera. We can \u201cflee from idolatry\u201d because the verse says we can! Idols still remain, but we chose not to worship them! We can also flee from any type of unbelief, flesh-walking, sin, et cetera. Satan\u2019s evil world system is still here, and we still live in this world, but we do not have to be \u201cconformed\u201d to it provided that we are letting God\u2019s Word rightly divided \u201ctransform\u201d and \u201crenew\u201d our minds (Romans 12:1-2)!\nGod\u2019s Word furnishes us that ability, that strength, that fortitude, to make it through any and every temptation/testing/trial. Difficult circumstances do not have to defeat and destroy us. Remember, 2 Corinthians 4:16-18, 2 Corinthians 12:7-10, Romans 8:18-25, and Romans 5:1-5. These are great passages to read and quote from memory in times of trouble. Our minds must be renewed to think about troubles/difficulties/trials/hardships the way God does. This is how we are to view trying times in the Dispensation of the Grace of God.\nThe temptation\u2014whatever circumstance it is\u2014will bring into spotlight what is really inside of us. People all around the word experience trials: after all, the Bible says, \u201cThere hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man\u2026.\u201d Trials are \u201ccommon to man\u2026.\u201d And, by the way, you will remember Israel of old had them! Adam and Eve had them! Jesus Christ had them! We today have them! Yea, they are indeed \u201ccommon to man.\u201d\nLet us read the whole verse now: \u201cThere hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.\u201d Praise our Lord Jesus Christ! God is \u201cfaithful,\u201d and He will be faithful to us. We just need to trust in His Word, and that Word of His Grace will take care of the rest. Israel failed miserably when it came to faith, but we can (and should) learn from that mistake. We are \u201cable\u201d to \u201cbear\u201d the \u201ctemptation\u201d because \u201cGod is faithful.\u201d\nIs faith in God still in our heart, despite our troubles? Or have we concluded that our sufferings mean there is no God, that God does not love us, that God does not care for us? Are we thankful for what God has done for us in Christ and by His finished crosswork (saved us from eternal hellfire, given us eternal life, forgiveness, redemption, justification, et cetera)? Or, like Israel, do we want to return to the old life (unbelief, sin, serving self, doing what we want, worshipping idols, et cetera)? Grace gives us the freedom to choose!\nA good way to understand temptation is to see the Lord Jesus Christ\u2019s temptations in Matthew 4:1-11. Satan tried to use Jesus Christ\u2019s circumstances to move Him away from Father God\u2019s will for Him. (Satan used similar tactics with Adam and Eve in Genesis 3:1-6.) Adam and Eve failed thrice, remember. Christ, however, triumphed thrice. Those temptations proved that Jesus Christ would still stick by the Word of God. They exposed the faith/trust that He had in His heart with respect to Father God\u2019s Word. Notice how Christ quoted those passages of Scripture. Satan would not divorce His mind from the Word of God. In spite of Satan\u2019s deception, slyness, trickery, Jesus Christ stayed by the Bible. He did what Israel failed to do. He did what Adam and Eve failed to do.\nJesus Christ left us an example to follow with respect to temptations. No matter what circumstances we face, we go by God\u2019s Word to us (Paul\u2019s epistles, Romans through Philemon, the principles of Grace). As long as we choose to follow them by faith, we will not repeat Adam and Eve\u2019s mistakes, or Israel\u2019s mistakes. We will know what God has done for us, who we are in Christ, what mindset and behavior God expects of us, and so on. While much more could be said, this is enough to get you going on the right track about it. Glad to help!\n\u00bb How should we pray for people enduring natural catastrophes and other tragedies?\nThis entry was posted in GRACE (CHRISTIAN) LIVING, What is the \u201ctemptation\u201d in 1 Corinthians 10:13?.

        "raw_content": "What Ingredients Are Necessary In Order To Make A Good Start In FPL?\nGetting off to a good start isn\u2019t everything and it\u2019s certainly not absolutely essential for a successful season in FPL however, it 100% helps and it certainly did for me in the 16/17 campaign.\nThat season was the first time I managed a good start (8k overall rank after GW3 and 57k overall rank after GW10) and I finished with an overall rank of 11k having never been ranked lower than 210k overall all season.\nWhen I began to take this game seriously (2012-13 season), I found I was always starting just okay, probably around the 1 million mark if my memory serves me correctly.\nI fundamentally believe, that there\u2019s a certain point in FPL where the best players begin to find their feet and have adjusted successfully to the rigours of the new campaign. Once that point has passed, it becomes very difficult to manoeuvre your way up the ranks, not impossible, but extremely tough.\nWe can use Formula 1 (F1) as an analogy:\nBefore each race, they have a qualifying session to determine the starting order for the official race. Whoever begins the official race at the front, has a better chance of winning the race. So, imagine that the beginning of the FPL season is like that qualifying session, a quick lap or in FPL terms, a good start, can put you in a great position for the official race, or the rest of the season in FPL terms.\nIf you have an average or poor qualifying lap, then it means you\u2019re lower down the pack and have got to overtake the better drivers, and if you know F1 well, once the better drivers get into their rhythm, they are extremely difficult to get past \u2013 same applies in FPL.\nI believe after a certain point, this is what FPL looks like overall rank wise \u2013 FPL legend James Egersdorff and the likes at the top\nI\u2019ve used a small sample from the \u2018FantasyFootballScout\u2019 league from the 16/17 campaign which, of course, won\u2019t be entirely representative of the entire FPL population, but will give us a good indicator of what contributes to a good start and how long it takes the top FPL managers to get into their rhythm. I\u2019ve taken the top 20 managers in that league, with Mark Sutherns and myself there for comparison, and recorded data on how they started overall rank wise. Here\u2019s what that looks like:\nPerformance + start of the top 20 managers in the FFS league in 16/17 with Mark Sutherns and myself\nThis small sample serves to prove my theory about a certain point, where the best managers come to terms with the new season with 91% of the managers in this sample getting inside the top 100,000 of overall managers (4.5m) by gameweek 10.\nBy roughly gameweek 4-6, these managers will have gathered enough information about formations, line-ups and players to make the most informed decisions and will have likely formed a template squad using the 1st WC.\nIf you are still a fair way off the top 100,000 overall managers at gameweek 10 then it is fairly unlikely that you\u2019ll overtake them by the end of the season.\nAgain, it\u2019s not impossible, but it becomes so much more difficult after this point. I don\u2019t have the data to prove a correlation but I would hypothesise that, the longer the season runs, the harder it is to move up in overall rank \u2013 based on the logic that the longer the season runs, the more information we have available to us and the more information we have, the easier things are to predict when it comes to formations, line-ups and players/teams performance.\nSo How Can I Start Well?\nWell it\u2019s not a precise science I\u2019m afraid to say but, there are certain things you can do to help give you the best chance to start well.\n1st Wildcard\nAs shown in my little analysis of the top 20 managers in the \u2018FantasyFootballScout\u2019 league, 77% of that sample used their 1st Wildcard in gameweek 6 or before.\nThe logic here is that, everyone accepts that the beginning (GW1-GW3) is pretty much a lottery in terms of knowing with 100% certainty of a particular player starting or what formation will be used by a team and where a player will play in that formation. You choose as best you can, based on the information from last season and your own research.\nAt about gameweek 4, there is enough information available to us about players, systems and teams to know who\u2019s nailed on, who is/isn\u2019t playing well and around that point, it makes sense to use our first wildcard to structure the team in accordance with the new information that\u2019s available \u2013 it\u2019s up to you to physically find the information however!\nThe information is out there\u2026\nPre-season and Transfers\nDoing research on pre-season and following the transfers, as well as new managers coming in, is another way to give yourself the best chance of starting well. It takes time and effort but if you want to succeed in this game, that\u2019s what needs to be done and be assured, the top managers will be doing this!\nIt\u2019s virtually impossible to start well with absolutely no attention paid to what the Premier League clubs are up to in pre-season.\nWhen we pick players, we need to be assured that they will 100% start the majority of the games we have brought them in for. With all the transfers that clubs will make, this has implications for not just other players but, potentially for the way a team plays too. A new manager coming in may change things also, for example; the new manager simply may not like a particular player or may change the system, thus forcing a player out of the starting eleven etc.\nAll that, needs to be considered when choosing our team however, pre-season can provide a false sense of security at times with reference to a player\u2019s form, the formation of a team or a player starting all the pre-season games.\nIt doesn\u2019t mean that, just because a striker scored 5 goals in 3 friendlies that he will start the season in the same vein. It doesn\u2019t mean that, just because a team used a 4-3-3 formation 3 friendlies in a row that they will use the same system in the Premier League. It needs to be taken with a pinch of salt \u2013 yes keep an eye on it, but don\u2019t take it as an absolute guarantee.\nMy GW1 performance 16/17 \u2013 71pts\nI actually beat 17 of the 21 managers in that sample with my GW1 score. This was down to a mix of keeping faith in the tried and trusted assets (Ag\u00fcero), prior season knowledge (Foster \u2013 the Pulis effect) and my research of pre-season and transfers (Ibrahimovic, Negredo and Redmond).\nLike a few other FPL managers, I had found out that Claude Puel mentioned that he might use new boy Redmond as a striker. In his first game he did, and Redmond scored and got 3 bonus \u2013 a fine example of how paying attention and doing research in pre-season can pay off.\nLast season (17/18), was undoubtedly a shocker for me and I firmly believe that me not starting well, was a prime contributor to my overall poor finish (706k). After GW6, I was languishing at an overall rank of circa 3.2m.\nWithin that, Kane starting poorly and not owning Lukaku were major factors that contributed to my poor start. I made the reasonable argument, that Jesus would prove either better or equal value to Lukaku in the first 6/7 GWs (and around GW6, Jesus was actually better value) however, because I trusted Kane with the armband in 4 of the first 5 GWs (who didn\u2019t return in any where I had the captaincy on him) and I didn\u2019t own Lukaku (who was owned by over 50% of the game and captained well in this period), I dropped like a rock, with the rest of my team not doing enough to stop the fall.\nSo for me, a crucial part of, perhaps not starting really well, but rather preventing you starting way at the back, is to ensure you have a number of well-owned players, including the highest owned player in the game, in this case, Mohamed Salah (46.4% ownership at the time of writing).\nIf you own Salah and captain him with the rest, you may not outscore the majority by a large margin, but by doing this, what you do ensure, is that you don\u2019t fall in overall rank by a large margin if you don\u2019t own him, captain someone else, and he fails to deliver.\nThe Tried and Trusted\nGoing back to 16/17, whilst I kept faith, successfully, in the tried and trusted Ag\u00fcero, the previous season\u2019s boy-wonder Alli, let me down to begin with, surprisingly being left out of the team in GW2 \u2013 this put me off him and I got rid on my WC.\nDespite him actually scoring a few after that \u2013 to my frustration \u2013 it probably turned out to be the right move as his game time was managed around the Champions League group stages before exploding into life in GW17.\nIf we take last season too, Kevin de Bruyne had finished the previous season with 199pts and 21 assists and with City\u2019s fantastic opening fixtures, featured in a lot of FPL managers\u2019 squads, yet failed to deliver in the first 3 gameweeks and with a significant % of our budget (\u00a310.5m) tied up in the Belgian, it was enough to signal a mass exodus.\nSo whilst it\u2019s important to consider those that were brilliant last season, it doesn\u2019t always mean they will start off amazing in the new season.\nIn 16/17, I brought in 5 new transfers into my team for gameweek 1. I got a total of 29pts from those 5 players with the unfortunate Ayew picking up a bad injury after just 34 minutes and Mandanda surprisingly not being in the first eleven. Ayew had pedigree in the Premier League and I was confident that form could translate to West Ham and still maintain that he would however, his injury served a timely reminder that they can occur at any moment.\nIbrahimovic was someone I knew a lot about, through him being one of my favourite players and me watching him a lot at PSG. I knew that despite his age, his mental toughness and ego, as well as his ability to keep himself fit would ensure regular starts and his ability would result in goals. Having this knowledge, helped me make the choice and justified his heavy price tag ensuring that I would benefit from his good start.\nIbrahimovic started well in FPL scoring 4 goals and providing 1 assist in his first 5 games, collecting 6 bonus points on the way\nSo long as you do the relative research on the new players, there\u2019s nothing wrong with bringing them in for your gameweek 1 squad. In this case, it certainly worked well for me. Some players transition to the Premier League like duck to water (Ibrahimovic), others don\u2019t (Mkhitaryan), you can\u2019t possibly predict that with any certain degree of certainty.\nI would advise not to let that deter you from a new signing however, be wary of it of course, but don\u2019t let that be the sole factor stopping you bringing a player in.\nDoing the extra research and keeping an eye out for new developments really helped me out in terms of starting well in gameweek 1, but it did also lead to a frustrating and disappointing time when it came to Redmond thereafter. Having opened with a brilliant 10 point haul, Redmond went on to blank 6 times in a row, a period in which I kept faith in him, given that he was a midfielder playing as a striker at such a lovely price (\u00a36.0m) in a decent team.\nIf presented with the same information ahead of the new season about a player around that same price however, I would still bring him in because the potential for good returns and the logic, was there. Despite it ultimately ending in disappointment, he was only \u00a36.0m and there\u2019s only so many options in that price bracket.\nRegardless of how much research you do, you\u2019re still never going to be able to predict all those team sheets to a 100% degree of accuracy on the first day. There\u2019s always a few shocks. The best way to combat this is to ensure, to the best of your knowledge, that your bench are nailed-on to start, as much as one physically can.\nDon\u2019t have any unnecessary risks. This greatly contributed to my gameweek 1 score, with the absent Mandanda being replaced by Foster who scored me a massive 10 points. Where some might call that luck, I call it well prepared, as I knew Foster was WBA\u2019s first choice keeper and that WBA, under Pulis, always had a chance for a clean sheet.",

        "raw_content": "Posted by Frankie's Legacy | Jun 21, 2015 | Bereavement, Grief, Surviving | 0 |\nAt 7.27pm last Friday night you were probably greeted with the sight of a young German Shepherd running towards you with a big smile on her face and wagging her tail. You didn\u2019t get to see her, but you heard her barking and felt her head resting against you when you were in my tummy.\nHer name is Curley, and like you she is very special to me. When I knew that you wouldn\u2019t make it into this world she was there for me every second, giving me lots of love, hugs and cuddles and licks, and if I could have taken her into hospital with me when you were born, I would have. She was there for me when I had to leave you behind at the hospital and come home with a memory box instead of you, and ever since the day I brought her home she has been my rock and my shadow.\nShe has been through so much with me since I had her in April 2008, not just losing you, but so much else as well, and I don\u2019t know how I will go on without her, just as I didn\u2019t know how I would go on without you. But I will go on, somehow, and I feel happier knowing that you are up there to look after her until I can get up there and look after you both myself.\nYou\u2019ve probably worked out by now that she\u2019s as regular as clockwork in terms of when she has her tea \u2013 5.30pm-ish. The fact she hasn\u2019t wanted to eat this last couple of weeks has been a very bad sign, but now that she is pain free and young again I\u2019m sure she\u2019s got her appetite back with gusto. She always has to have one of her dental stick chews after her tea, she will pester you until you give it to her, as she thinks of it as her pudding. At 8pm every night, give her a small scoop of vanilla ice cream \u2013 your Grandparents used to do this when she stayed with them and she loved it. And just before you go to bed, don\u2019t forget to give her a rich tea biscuit, she won\u2019t go to sleep without it.\nShe loves her toys and her favourites are squeaky toys and tennis balls. She won\u2019t give you her toys to throw, you will need to get them off her. She likes to keep them in her mouth and parade around with them showing them off, humour her with this. She will often lie down with one of her toys in her mouth, and I think this is from the time that she was used for breeding puppies by her previous owner. I think having a toy in her mouth and near her all the time reminds her of her babies.\nBe careful when you take her for a walk, she can pull a bit on her lead sometimes! Watch her around cats, she will chase them if she gets a chance. Same with squirrels. You can let her meet other dogs though, she\u2019s very friendly and will make friends with them, as long as they want to make friends with her. If she is barked at, she will naturally bark back.\nAlso, and this is very important, make sure that you keep her on a lead if you are near a river, she loves water and will be in it like a shot. She enjoys having a bath as she loves water, not many dogs enjoy having a bath, but she does.\nAt night, let her sleep on the bed with you. She will protect you with her life and will want to be close to you. She loves her blanket and likes to have one of her toys near her when she sleeps, it is almost like a comfort thing for her.\nOne final thing to warn you about, she hates having her photo taken. She even knows if you are trying to take a photo of her with your phone. You have to do it so that she\u2019s not looking at you, like stealth so she doesn\u2019t realise, or turn off all the sounds and clicks so that if you do have your phone in your hand she thinks you are just looking at it instead of taking a photo of her. I know you will want to get lots of photos and reminders of her, just as I did, and I\u2019m so happy to have the photos that I did manage to get, but please try not to stress her out too much with this.\nFrankie, please love Curley, look after her and comfort her until I can get up there to look after you both. Every boy needs a puppy, and I\u2019m glad that you finally have one up there to look after. She will love you and protect you with every beat of her heart until I can get to you, and I know you will look after her just as well as I did. I am trusting her entirely to your care up there now, and she couldn\u2019t be in safer hands.\nI love you so much my precious son and my beautiful furbaby, look after each other, and I will be up there to look after you both as soon as I can.\nAll my love forever,\nMummy xxxxx\nPreviousRIP My Beautiful Furbaby Curley\u202619th June 2015\nNextLife PC (Post Curley)\nSurvive\u2026..Or Thrive?

        "raw_content": "Where\u2019s the connection? That question forcefully came to mind as I read the opening lines of an article published by Online Casino Report. Apparently, a couple of writers have expressed their thoughts on youth gambling and they have linked the tendency to do so with the lack of sex education as well as parenting skills. Here\u2019s what they have to say:\n\u201cThe Prevalence of Problem Gambling Among US Adolescents and Young Adults: Results From a National Survey,\u201d which was released in 2007, randomly surveyed youths from age 14 to 21.\nIt showed that 68% of those in this age bracket have gambled in some form in the past year. This could be from poker tournaments to a friendly bet on who would win the Super Bowl. 11% admitted to gambling at least twice a week.\nWhile this may be alarming for sure, one writer at Gambling911 jumped upon this and stated that this percentage of youths are those \u201cwho are not parented properly and quite possibly those who roam the streets late at night selling drugs and playing loud music\u2026 the study does not ask how many are sexually active, which would determine the type of moral upbringing and therefore all but eliminate \u2018gambling\u2019 as a core issue.\u201d\nI have to say that I a bit astounded. Lack of proper parenting, ok, I think my mind can somehow correlate that to the proclivity for gambling. But sex education? Come on now. I think that linking that and gambling is a bit of a stretch! What do you think?\nEngland see off spirited Italy",

        "raw_content": "Characters, Major Characters, Beekler Family,\nRagin' Fun (pilot) Pilot (pictured) (series)\nRichard Beekler is the father of Alexis Beekler and Dylan Beekler, the husband of Carole Beekler and the unwitting pawn of Golan. He is a standard, run-of-the-mill family patriarch and served as a straight-man figure for the other characters. He only appeared in the pilot episodes of the series.\nAfter the series was picked up to be a series, and the storyline was developed and slightly changed, they got rid of Richard and passed the family off without him, portraying Carole as a single mother. Richard completely disappeared from the series as a physical character, but has still been referenced by the other cast members.\nRichard Beekler was a loving father and husband, but weak willed and easy to manipulate through sheer domination. Carole, Dylan, Alexis and especially Golan showed little respect for him, taking turns between ignoring him and hurling abuse at him.\nAbsence Edit\nStarting from the second season onwards, the show was completely rebooted and Richard was no longer present in the main cast. Statements from other characters established that Carole was now single. Later episodes revealed that Carole became single when Dylan was very young, and implies that something terrible or upsetting happened to or with him.\nThe show has yet to reveal if Richard has died or simply left the family. It can be said that as of now, it's canonical to the series that he never existed, given that in the pilot season, Golan was already with the family from the very start, but in the series, he wasn't with them until the first episode, when Dylan summoned him, but it can just as easily be said that somehow, he did exist and was a member of the family once as he can be seen in several background shots, but it's unknown if he is supposed to be his own character, an easter egg, or simply the show's animators reusing assets.\nThe reason for the diappearance of Richard, while only expressed through subtle and barely explained references, alredy has contradictions. In On Golan Pond, Alexis implies that Richard is no longer in the family because he died of Robot AIDS and in Golan the Impregnable, Dylan mentions that her dad walked out on the family. However, it is possible that Richard walked out of the family first, and later on in his life, something happened to him that caused him to die of robot AIDS, and the Beekler family received word of it.\nAppearances in the Series Edit\nA picture of Richard can be seen on Carole's desk in the Pilot.\nIn On Golan Pond, Carole is worried she may have Robot Aids, Alexis comments \"Come on, Mom! What are the chances you and dad die of robot aids?\"\nIn Golan the Impregnable, a younger Dylan is about to state what happened to Richard only to be interrupted by Keith.\nIn that same episode, Dylan laments that all the men in her life abandon her.\nFinally, during the credits of that episode, Carole can be heard calling Richard's name.\nRichard was voiced by Matthew Silverstein, one of the show's co-creators. Silverstein was also the co-creator of Comedy Central series Drawn Together.\nThe reason for Richard's removal is a mystery. One possibility is that Richard wasn't amusing enough when compared to the other characters and couldn't play off them properly, or that he didn't add anything to their dynamic. Another possibility is that the absence of Richard served to make the other characters more sympathetic, with Carole now being a single mother, Dylan not having a father, and Golan taking Richard's place as the major male role model within the household.\nRetrieved from \"https://golantheinsatiable.fandom.com/wiki/Richard_Beekler?oldid=5076\"",

        "raw_content": "\u201cGod, I thank you that I am not like other men, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even like this tax collector.\u201d\u009d (Lk 18:11)\nI recently heard a quote to the effect that \u201cthere are only two types of people in the world: saints who think they are sinners and sinners who think they are saints.\u201d\u009d That pretty much sums up the two characters in today\u2019s Gospel. The Pharisee has justified his life, and the Publican has condemned his own. In truth, each of these men was a sinner in some way. As the Evangelist John said: If we say that we have not sinned, then we make God a liar, and His word has no place in our hearts (1 Jn 1:10). So what separates the two men? Simply one fact. One acknowledged the reality of his life and the reality of his sin, and one didn\u2019t. And having recognized the reality of his life, only one man came to God and asked for forgiveness.\nSo where do we stand between these two in the temple? Have we justified our own conduct? Have we glossed over our sins? That\u2019s obviously a question that we can only answer ourselves. But allow me one observation: Last Saturday before the Vigil Mass I sat in the Confessional at the back of church for about an hour. And during that time, not one person came to Confession. I did have a couple of visitors who came to say hello, but NOT ONE PERSON came seeking God\u2019s mercy in the Sacrament.\nNow, I could look at this on the bright side: Thank God, there are no mortal sinners in the parish! Everyone is upright and worthy of praise! Or I could be cynical about it, and suppose that many are like the Pharisee who has justified his own sinfulness. Or I could be practical and recognize that there are other opportunities for Confession in the area, and many people probably availed themselves of those opportunities.\nIn truth, I don\u2019t do any of those things. I look at myself. I think \u201cwhy am I here?\u201d\u009d What am I doing sitting in the Confessional if no one needs a priest? Doesn\u2019t anybody want God\u2019s mercy? Maybe I should be doing something else? Do I preach about Confession enough? Am I not making myself available at the right times? What do I need to do to help people recognize their sinfulness; and, more importantly, what can I do to help people receive God\u2019s mercy and forgiveness? Should I offer more occasions for Confession, or fewer ones? What am I doing wrong?\nI\u2019ll be honest. I don\u2019t know the answer to those questions. But it is troubling to me. Can you help me out? What am I missing?",

        "raw_content": "History | October 23rd, 2012 Greg Stevens\nIt\u2019s easy to feel like today\u2019s economic problems are chronic and universal. So for a change of pace, let\u2019s look back to a time when elites complained about too many jobs and called upon government for a maximum wage.\nThe story starts in the 1340\u2019s in England. The King, Edward III, had been dealing with foreign problems abroad, including a number of wars, most of them with France. This was draining the coffers and leading to a lot of national debt, causing discontent at home. So, the King heads home and fires a bunch of royal officers and judges (i.e. government employees), which pisses off his political opponents. They argue and eventually come to a compromise that involves both severe restrictions on government spending and an increase in taxes. So far, it all sounds weirdly familiar, right?\nThen came 1348. The Black Death had already been raging through mainland Europe at breakneck speed, and in 1348 it finally jumped the English channel and began its spread across England. Within 2 years, 40% of the population of the country was dead.\n40% of the country was dead.\nWhat would that feel like? Try to imagine. For just a moment, try to make that personal.\nFor every 100 friends you have on Facebook, 40 of them die in the next year.\nYou go to your yoga class, or your gym, or your lecture hall at school, and imagine half of the people who showed up on the first day are no longer there\u2026 because they are now dead.\nIt is an empty world. Of course, that\u2019s just thinking about the people who are not around. That is not even considering the more grotesque aspects of the situation. Where are all of the bodies going? What exactly does the air smell like in the inner city? Let\u2019s not think about that right now.\nInstead, let\u2019s think about the numbers: How many of the small stores that you know are now closed? You know which ones I mean: the little boutique clothing stores with 4 employees, two of whom are now dead? The little shop where you buy your holiday cards, or the gas station that is run by two parents and their college-aged son\u2026 they are all closed now, because every second person in the city is now dead.\nThat was the world in 1350 in England.\nWith the world is turned on its head, what happens next?\nIn today\u2019s world, we have unemployment, and the wealthy business-owners are saying: \u201cYou know that minimum wage thing? We need to just get rid of that. According to a free market, when unemployment is this high wages should be lower! When wages go down, we can employ more people. Let the free market sort the situation out!\u201d\nIn the upside-down world of 1350, there were many, many more jobs than there were people. The problem was the opposite of unemployment, although there isn\u2019t really a word for it. The demand for workers was many, many times the supply. So the free market started to do what the free market would naturally do in this situation: wages shot through the roof.\nRemember how this happens in a natural free market. Blue collar worker John Smith (and yes, there were people named John Smith in England even as far back as 1350) knows that Land Owner Willard needs workers desperately, because without workers his land will lay fallow, with no crops, and he will have no income in the spring. So when Willard says, \u201cI will pay you three shillings,\u201d and John Smith says, \u201cI\u2019m going to need ten shillings or I\u2019ll go somewhere else,\u201d Willard has very few options. He knows that all of the other land-owners are just as desperate as he is. If Willard really does try to insist on three shillings, there is a very good chance that the guy down the road will cave and agree to pay John 10 shillings. Then Willard will have no workers, and his land lies empty. So Willard is forced to agree, and wages are now 10 shillings.\nThe elite complained. The elite whined. It just isn\u2019t fair! These workers can basically insist on any wage they want! They can lay around and do sloppy work, and they know that I can\u2019t afford to fire them because there are more jobs than there are workers.\nSo what did the elite do? They decided that regulation was required. That\u2019s right! Government interference with the free market! The free market was not doing what they wanted, and so they appealed to the King. And the King made some laws. (Those were the days for fast government action, huh?)\nThe 1349 Ordinance of Labourers and 1351 Statute of Labourers were a crack-down on the problem of rapidly rising wages that resulted from the Black Plague. Here are some of the best parts:\nEdward by the grace of God etc. to the reverend father in Christ William, by the same grace archbishop of Canterbury, Primate of all England, greeting.\nBecause a great part of the people and especially of the, workmen and servants has now died in that pestilence, some, seeing the straights of the masters and the scarcity of servants, are not willing to serve unless they receive excessive wages: We, considering the grave inconveniences which might come from the lack especially of ploughmen and such labourers, have held deliberation and treaty concerning this with the prelates and nobles and other learned men sitting by us; by whose consentient counsel we have seen fit to ordain: that every man and woman of our kingdom of England, of whatever condition, whether bond or free, who is able bodied and below the age of sixty years, not living from trade nor carrying on a fixed craft, nor having of his own the means of living, or land of his own with regard to the cultivation of which he might occupy himself, and not serving another,if he, considering his station, be sought after to serve in a suitable service, he shall be bound to serve him who has seen fit so to seek after him;\nWHOAH! Do you know what that just said?? If you are unemployed, able-bodied, under 60 years old, and are not a land-owner or independently wealthy, then YOU MUST AGREE TO WORK FOR THE VERY NEXT PERSON WHO ASKS TO HIRE YOU.\n\u2026and he shall take only the wages liveries, meed or salary which, in the places where he sought to serve, were accustomed to be paid in the twentieth year of our reign of England, or the five or six common years next preceding.\nNot only do you have to agree to work for whoever is willing to hire you, but you are not allowed to ask for any more wages than people were getting paid before the plague started.\n\u2026if any man or woman, being thus sought after in service, will not do this\u2026 he shall be taken and sent to the next jail, and there he shall remain in strict custody until he shall find surety for serving in the aforesaid form.\nThere is more stuff like this. Grocers are not allowed to set prices higher than what they were before the plague, and so on. You get the idea. But the long and the short of it is: the elites of the time were not so pleased with the dynamics of the free market. Their solution? \u201cIf someone doesn\u2019t agree to work for the wages that I think are right, then throw them in jail!\u201d\nOf course eventually, this lead to revolts and uprisings, although even that took about 30 years to completely materialize. These problems do sort themselves out in the end, after all.\nBut don\u2019t ever let someone try to tell you that business people are always, as a matter of ideology, in favor of the free market. It only looks that way now, because being in favor of the free market is also being in favor of their balance sheet.\n< Why you cannot calculate the \u201crichest person who ever lived\u201d\nSupergeek Halloween Costume: Tron (illuminated costumes) >\nBob the Protectionist says:\nYup. The rich hate a tight labor market.\nGUY PAUL says:\nwow; impressive going back that far for comparison; what about the peasant revolt in 1381 that ended serfdom; the \u2018elites\u2019 always go too far and people will eventually revolt; afraid as a country we\u2019re going to have to learn all this the hard way; very few have your knowledge of history even what happened 10 years ago.

        "raw_content": "How startup hubs and FinTech are democratizing the world\u2019s finance centers\nThe emergence of startup hubs and FinTech trends like digital currencies and distributed ledger technology are changing the balance of the world\u2019s finance hubs towards more democratic finance services that represent everyone \u2013 and that\u2019s a good thing\nWe are witnessing the shift in the geopolitical environment and how machines can change institutional structures. At the same time, we see a lot of development on a local level that is partly linked to the global development yet partly independent. For example, we see new emerging startup hubs, while FinTech and political decisions like Brexit are changing the balance of the world\u2019s finance hubs.\nStartup companies are seen as a driver of economic growth in the midst of these paradigm shifts. Nearly every country wants to have more innovative companies, and Silicon Valley in the US is seen as an example of how companies worth billions can emerge from seemingly nothing. Silicon Valley is still considered to have the most dynamic startup ecosystem, but we\u2019re already seeing examples of some dramatic successes emerge from outside the valley.\nIn China, for instance, companies such as Alibaba, Huawei, Xiaomi and WeChat have emerged in recent years and can be considered enormous successes. For example, Alibaba\u2019s payment arm Alipay processes over 100,000 transactions a second during a busy peak, while Visa typically processes under 10,000 transactions a second. Alipay will process 10 times more transactions a second from a handheld than a traditional leading credit card company.\nA key paradigm shift here is how we\u2019re already moving beyond the decentralization model. Bitcoin and blockchain have been important buzz words in FinTech for a couple of years \u2013 more generally, we talk about digital currencies and distributed ledger technology. Some people say distributed ledger technology (of which blockchain is just one model) will do for finance what TCP/IP did for the Internet \u2013 it could change the whole finance world, just as the Internet has changed many businesses and operations since the 1990s. When this starts to happen, we\u2019re no longer looking at decentralized finance services, but distributed financial services that enable real p2p, bypassing some parties (like banks) to authorize and control monetary transactions.\nWith Asia emerging as a leading economy in the world, several countries and cities in Asia are building their future positions. For example, Singapore and Hong Kong must be active in FinTech to guarantee their positions in global finance in the future. Other counties like Vietnam and Malaysia are doing very active and systematic work to develop their own startup and entrepreneurship ecosystems. It is no longer about trying to emulate Silicon Valley, but developing a comprehensive digital ecosystem with services to facilitate and develop startup services, funding and support for growth companies.\nWe see financial services playing a fundamental role in enabling this development, but they can also help bring benefits to all people. Currently, banks and other finance institutions are seen as representing an arrogant establishment that exists to make the rich richer. More democratic finance services should represent everyone, enable operation of business and their capitalization from anywhere in the world, while also enabling fairer systems for tax collection and wealth distribution.\nEmerging economies, intelligent machines, and the rise of the middle class in emerging markets are shaping the global economy, as well as all local economies. This has also influenced most companies in the world in terms of how they develop future offerings, make their products and reach their target audiences. It is a challenge for politicians to manage this development in a peaceful way, but an important part of the solution must be the promotion of changes that bring benefits to all parties, not only a few. At the same time, the solution is not to stop development, but drive development and wealth distribution.\nThis article is based on the Grow VC Group Research Report, \u201cMachines, Asia And Fintech \u2013 Rise of Globalization and Protectionism as a Consequence.\u201d The article was first published on Disruptive.Asia.

It was because the youths have been neglected, that they became frustrated. They said the youths are the leaders of tomorrow, but they have waited patiently, but tomorrow has not come, so frustration sets in.\nThe challenges of youth development in the country are not only crucial, but also critical. It is crucial because at this point of our national history the youth are generally frustrated. Because they are frustrated, they have in their respond to their understanding what leadership should be, gotten themselves involved in things that are counter productive to national development.\nEach time we talk about youth development, we think we can sit at comfort of our zone and determine what to do; we should also engage them and listen to them.\n\u201cAnd asked them what is their thought of how they should be developed, and how do we build leadership for the future where they are going to participate?\nThe mistake we have been making is to adopt mistake our colonial master adopted 1885 in Berlin when they wanted to discuss the destiny of Africa in the absence of African representatives.\n\u201cWe cannot indeed come out with any concrete policy about Africa without also hearing from them and how they appreciate those policies and what are their contributions.\n\u201cIf they are participating is better, but if you impose it upon them they see it as nothing, and that is why some of the empowerment programmes when you assemble youth they collect the money and disappear, and think it\u2019s a time of taking their share.\n\u201cBut if you engage them for them to have their input in it they will embrace it and whatever thing you invest on them will last.\u201d\nlalong appealed to the youths in the country to join hands with the government of President Buhari in building a better future for them\n\u201cI appeal to Nigerian youths to as custodians of the new mandate of change to have confidence in us, they should trust us, they should collaborate with us that we can build a better future with them.\nSpeaking on the crisis in Plateau state, when the people from the state visited in Abuja, the minister, who hailed from the state, said that it is imperative for the people of the state to cooperate with the present administration for peace to reign in the state.\nHe added that the government at the state and the federal levels are committed to engage youth for even development.\nAccording to him, \u201cto the people of plateau state there is nothing expected from them than cooperation and understanding.\n\u201cOn the side of government, we assure that we are very committed to engage youth and ensure that people of Plateau take their rightful position as the home of peace and tourism.\nHe promised to use sports as a means of unifying Nigerians irrespective of their religion and ethnicity\n\u201cWe can use sports to promote national unity since it is capable of compelling Nigerians who are disagreeing to agree.\n\u201cSport is one of the giant industries that have the status of an embassy. The role sports plays in influencing our foreign policy is very great. Sports is the only unifying factor in Nigeria; even in places where people are burning and killing the other people there is a level of tolerance, when the Nigeria team is playing, they will declare a national ceasefire and all of them will converge by the television to watch the match and they would patriotically be prying for Nigeria to win.\n\u201cWe have to go back to the drawing board and look at how we have managed sports in the past and see whether we can make it better to play the role it is supposed to place.",

        "raw_content": "External Sacrifice:\nSo why exactly are you not eating candy for the next month?\nThis is a very popular penance during Lent, and the questions about it are just as popular. Heaven forbid you should avoid the cake at the birthday party! You LOVE cake! But it\u2019s Lent \u2013 a time for penance and sacrifice. Christ has said, \u201cIf anyone wishes to come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me\u201d (Luke 9:23). Giving up something we enjoy strengthens our love for Christ and our resilience against temptation. As Pope Benedict XVI said in his Lenten address of 2009, \u201cThrough fasting and praying, we allow [Christ] to come and satisfy the deepest hunger that we experience in the depths of our being: the hunger and thirst for God.\u201d It unites us with Christ\u2019s own sacrifices and gives us a deeper appreciation of the blessings in our lives.\nExternal Sacrifice vs. Internal Conversion:\nI don't get it --- All you do is give up candy?\nNow, here is an interesting question. External sacrifices are the most obvious kind, so sometimes it does look like all we do is avoid chocolate. However, if you look closer, you'll realize that fasting and abstinence have always gone hand in hand with two of their best friends: prayer and almsgiving. External sacrifice is a manifestation of interior conversion: \"\u2026interior conversion urges expression in visible signs, gestures and works of penance\" (CCC no. 1430). Interior conversion is where prayer and almsgiving come into play. In almsgiving, we show mercy and generosity to others, giving them a chance to experience the blessings we have. In prayer, we are communicating with God, asking him to bless and perfect our fasting and almsgiving: \"\u2026 prayer is the living relationship of the children of God with their Father who is good beyond measure, with his Son Jesus Christ and with the Holy Spirit\" (CCC no. 2565). It's not just avoiding sweets. It's glorifying God by growing in his Love.\nsource: United States Conference of Catholic Bishops website: http://www.usccb.org/prayer-and-worship/liturgical-year/lent/ideas-for-evangelization-during-lent.cfm",

        "raw_content": "Let us Begin Advent and Prepare for Christmas\nCan you believe it is time for another NEW Year? How do you plan to receive Christ this year?\nMyself, I plan to focus on my own health. I have struggled with diabetes for over 25 years and I plan on working on my body more perfectly to make room for Christ. One of my favorite spiritual authors for this time period is the late Carol Houselander. I believe her canonization is in process. She is known by some as the divine psychologist. You can look her up here: http://www.catholicauthors.com/houselander.html\nOne striking quote from one of her many writings is:\n\"Christ asks for a home in your soul, where he can be at rest with you, where he can talk easily to you, where you and he, alone together, can laugh and be silent and be delighted with one another.\" (Caryll Houselander, Thomas Hoffman (2000). \u201cA Child in Winter: Advent, Christmas and Epiphany with Caryll Houselander\u201d, p.80, Rowman & Littlefield)\nFor more information on Carol Houselander: Click Here\nAdvent is a time for renewal and preparation. Traditionally it has always been about three comings:\n1. The coming of Jesus in your heart at Christmas.\n2. The coming of Jesus when you meet him face to face at the hour of your personal death.\n3. The third coming is about the Parousia, when at the end of the world Christ will come to judge the world. For more information: (click here)\nLet us all turn to Mary and her Spouse St Joseph for models of how we should prepare for this Advent.\nThe Season of Advent in the Catholic Church\nIn the Catholic Church, Advent is a period of preparation, extending over four Sundays, before Christmas. The word Advent comes from the Latin advenio, \"to come to,\" and refers to the coming of Christ. This refers, first of all, to our celebration of Christ's birth at Christmas; but second, to the coming of Christ in our lives through grace and the Sacrament of Holy Communion; and finally, to His second coming at the end of time.\nOur preparations, therefore, should have all three comings in mind. We need to prepare our souls to receive Christ worthily.\nFirst We Fast, Then We Feast\nThat's why Advent has traditionally been known as a \"little Lent.\" As in Lent, Advent should be marked by increased prayer, fasting, and good works. While the Western Church no longer has a set requirement for fasting during Advent, the Eastern Church (both Catholic and Orthodox) continues to observe what is known as Philip's Fast, from November 15 until Christmas.\nTraditionally, all great feasts have been preceded by a time of fasting, which makes the feast itself more joyful. Sadly, Advent today has supplanted by \"the Christmas shopping season,\" so that by Christmas Day, many people no longer enjoy the feast.\nThe Symbols of Advent\nIn its symbolism, the Church continues to stress the penitential and preparatory nature of Advent. As during Lent, priests wear purple vestments, and the Gloria (\"Glory to God\") is omitted during Mass. The only exception is on the Third Sunday of Advent, known as Gaudete Sunday when priests can wear rose-colored vestments. As on Laetare Sunday during Lent, this exception is designed to encourage us to continue our prayer and fasting, because we can see that Advent is more than halfway over.\nPerhaps the best-known of all Advent symbols is the Advent wreath, a custom which originated among German Lutherans but was soon adopted by Catholics. Consisting of four candles(three purple and one pink) arranged in a circle with evergreen boughs (and often a fifth, white candle in the center), the Advent wreath corresponds to the four Sundays of Advent. The purple candles represent the penitential nature of the season, while the pink candle calls to mind the respite of Gaudete Sunday. (The white candle, when used, represents Christmas.)\nWe can better enjoy Christmas\u2014all 12 days of it, from Christmas Day to Epiphany\u2014if we revive Advent as a period of preparation. Abstaining from meat on Fridays, or not eating at all between meals, is a good way to revive the Advent fast. (Not eating Christmas cookies or listening to Christmas music before Christmas is another.) We can incorporate such customs as the Advent wreath, the Saint Andrew Christmas Novena, and the Jesse Tree into our daily ritual, and we can set some time aside for special scripture readings for Advent, which remind us of the threefold coming of Christ.\nHolding off on putting up the Christmas tree and other decorations is another way to remind ourselves that the feast is not here yet. Traditionally, such decorations were put up on Christmas Eve, but they would not be taken down until after Epiphany, in order to celebrate the Christmas season to its fullest.\nScott P. Richert has a master's in political theory from Catholic University. Author of two books, he has written and edited Catholic publications for over two decades.

        "raw_content": "Category Archives: Creativity and Art\nIs Rebellion Necessary for True Art?\n\u201cGenerally speaking, art is an expression of man\u2019s need for an harmonious and complete life, that is to say, his need for those major benefits of which a society of classes has deprived him. That is why a protest against reality, either conscious or unconscious, active or passive, optimistic or pessimistic, always forms part of a really creative piece of work. Every new tendency in art has begun with rebellion\u201d\n\u2013 Leon Trotsky\nWhoa, here I go quoting Leon Trotsky, of all people! Don\u2019t worry, I haven\u2019t turned into a Marxist/Trotskyist/whatever-type-of-communism-is-currently-fashionable. I\u2019ve always resisted the idea that art is always about rebellion, while at the same time always maintaining that an escape from everyday reality is an important part of enjoying good art or good writing.\nBut what Trotsky is saying is that this act of escape is, in itself, a rebellion against current realities. I don\u2019t like the idea that all art is rebellion because not everything needs to be rebelled against, or is worth rebelling against. Sometimes the good can be celebrated too. But most art does point to something lacking in the human reality, even if it\u2019s just in a tragic way (like The Great Gatsby \u2013 I just watched the new movie version, by the way!)\nSo can art be an expression of what reality is lacking? Definitely. Does that mean art is rebellious, since it is pointing out the flaws in reality? Well then, maybe there is an aspect of rebellion to all art after all.\nHere\u2019s what I believe, in the end. Humanity is looking for a harmonious and complete life. But the barrier to gaining that kind of life is not class divisions, as Trotsky says above, but ourselves. All of our individual stupid shortcomings and flaws, repeated on a grand scale throughout the whole human race, resulting in everything we know is wrong with the world \u2013 war, hatred, evil.\nSometimes we need an escape from this kind of petty reality. Sometimes we need to use art to point it the bad stuff. Either way, creativity and artistic production is important for humanity.\nWhat do you think \u2013 does art have to have an aspect of rebellion to it? What should art rebel against?\nOn a related note \u2013 \u2018Something Like Friendship,\u2019 Chapter 5 of my Why Polly? serialized novel comes out today! Click here to check it out. Or you can read Chapter 1 free here.\nTagged as art, art is rebellion, escape from reality, rebellion, Trotsky, writing\nA Call to Creativity\nWhat, no power tools? Those humans were crazy {PD}\nWhat do the pyramids, the MineCraft Earth, and my short stories all have in common? Hopefully they\u2019re not all insane projects, though piling virtual block on top of virtual block inside a video game is only slightly weirder than piling actually physical blocks into a tall, pointy shape. They\u2019re all made by people, of course. They\u2019re all attempts by people to shape the world around them \u2013 some of them with more of a point than others, of course (whether my short stories have a point, I\u2019ll leave to the reader to judge). But it illustrates a natural human drive that people have displayed throughout history, one mark of what it means to be humans. We feel like we have to create. We have to produce something, even if it\u2019s just stacking enough Oreos on top of each other until the tower is high enough to get into the Guinness World Book of Records.\nThis is what draws me, and probably many other writers, to writing. Because you can create to the extent your creative mind will let you. You can design worlds totally different than this one, and you can produce door-stopper novels that strongly indicate you\u2019ve done something in your life. But you don\u2019t realize how strong this drive is until you really think about it. How many hours of free labour have been poured in Wikipedia, do you think? Or the sprawling world of TVtropes? Or even the internet itself \u2013 a whole new frontier for virtual creation?\nI had a history prof who once built his own Messerschmitt airplane out of scrap metal in his backyard, which is a highly cool project, but also somewhat useless when you think about it. In the first place, Messerschmitts have already been invented, and are way out of date, and in the second place, one built out of scrap metal won\u2019t even fly (even though he did actually mix up jet fuel for it at one point). So why on earth would anyone put in the hours and hours of manpower to piece one together by hand? One reason is, probably, just to prove he could do it. Another, to have a Messerschmitt in his backyard. And another, to show the limits of human ability are not as narrow as we sometimes think \u2013 we can piece together amazing stuff if we try. (And if you don\u2019t believe I\u2019ve had a prof who actually did this, check out the article here).\nIn our industrialized world, we have lost some of the creativity that comes with handcrafting. The majority of us don\u2019t have to produce our own fashions, and regularly churn out artisanal bread. But the benefit of our modern world is that our technology frees us up to pursue creative ideas that actually jive with our interests. Throughout history, people such as Marx have lamented the effect of industry on human ambition, but people have also started movements that react against it. I love hearing about the Arts and Crafts movement in England, because some of their handcrafted designs are so neat (like this table, and this \u2018Dragon\u2019s blood\u2019 red lacquered dresser). And today, this handcrafted movement has been strengthened by the internet \u2013 check out Etsy, and the hundreds and hundreds of sewing blogs. The act of creation is not dead yet. And more than that, people now have new ways of showing off their creations to one another.\nUnfortunately, the modern world comes with its own distractions, which is why I waste far too much time on the internet and TV, when I could be writing. So this post is not only a celebrating of the amazing reach of human creativity, it is a call to action. Our society has probably the greatest amount of leisure time of any society ever. What are you doing with that time? How many of us are ignoring our drive to create something?\nGo out and do something cool. Don\u2019t worry about exactly how it will benefit the modern world \u2013 after all, we all agree the pyramids are great, even though we don\u2019t use them for anything. I mean, don\u2019t worry about it too much, though try to pursue something that\u2019s a little less of a waste of time than watching TV 24 hours a day. The thing with creating (especially creating art) is that you can\u2019t always foresee how it will impact the world, but it could be in ways you never imagined. So take a movement and listen to that drive to create.\nFiled under Creativity and Art, On Writing\nTagged as art, create, creativity, messerschmitt, pyramids\nNo Such Thing as Creativity\nAccording to this article in Slate, a wave of critics are asserting there never was any such thing as creativity, genius or innovation, and that everything new is merely a recreation of what came before. As a person who\u2019s always stood behind the \u2018nothing new under the sun\u2019 concept, this sounds appealing to me. I know for myself, when creating a new piece of fiction, that I would never be able to do it without having read other people\u2019s fiction first (if only to learn what not to do, but more often to discover what worked in other contexts). Does this make me hopelessly derivative? Should I only be declared a \u2018genius\u2019 if all my ideas about writing appeared out of nowhere, unannounced, in my head?\nBut in reality, I think creativity lies somewhere in between the extremes of \u2018thought up the idea completely on my own\u2019 and \u2018my idea isn\u2019t new because it owes so much to everyone who came before me.\u2019 Because when you look at the world today, it obviously isn\u2019t the same world as when the writer of Ecclesiastes lived, or when Homer lived, or whoever. I think the essence of creativity is to take what isn\u2019t new, and combine them in fresh ways.\nSo is there hope I will someday be declared a genius? Personally, I don\u2019t feel like a fountain of genius, but I still have this urge to recombine, re-imagine, and recreate what I see in the world around me. It\u2019s something I can\u2019t stop doing, whether that would qualify as \u2018genius\u2019 or \u2018hopelessly derivative.\u2019 My only hope is that my perspective will someday bring some kind of fresh look to the same tired old world under the sun. And maybe that is creativity.\nTagged as creativity, Ecclesiastes, genius, nothing new under the sun",

        "raw_content": "Turkey is also active in the UN\nIn his intellectual struggle against Darwinism and materialism, Hazrat Mahdi (as) will show people the proofs of creation, and will point to the verses of the Qur'an and trustworthy hadiths handed down from our Prophet (saas) as evidence in his lectures\nHazrat Mahdi (as) will save the world from evils and wicked philosophies, and will establish the rule of peace and love among men\nThe moral values of ignorance -3\nAdnan Oktar's explanations of verses from Surat At-Tawba\nHazrat Mahdi (as) will not come with unbelievable characteristics, contrary to the law of Allah; he will come like all the Prophets, in agreement with the law of Allah\nAl Baghdadia TV, April 30-2008\nAdnan Oktar: Sure we must directly look at the solution. The solution is all the Islamic world should get together, A GREAT TURKISH ISLAMIC UNION MUST BE ESTABLISHED UNDER THE LEADERSHIP OF TURKEY. Turkey should put its weight in the region as a superpower and it should very well protect the entire Islamic world as an elder brother, as a real brother. It should ensure that they strengthen both in the economic and political sense. It must protect the entire Turkish world, which is nearly all Muslims, and put an end to terror and anarchy in the area as a superpower. The solution is to take a big civilization step and be in an effort striving to be like the Prophet Solomon\u2019s (as) era.\nUsak ART TV (Usak), August 19-2008\nAdnan Oktar: The scourge of racism, the scourge of race supremacy, why is there a need for these? If Turkey steps in as a big brother, all happenings will be ceased. So the Turkish-Islamic Union is a very very very urgent duty. Elderly people, thousands of people died in Georgia. Isn\u2019t this a sin? Isn\u2019t it a crime? Even a day\u2019s delay will leave Turkey under responsibility. An immediate action is needed. Once Turkey offers this, if anyone objects it, they should come and tell me. I mean go and offer to unite Turkey to Syria, Syria won\u2019t think about it even for two days. Offer to Azerbaijan, they themselves want it. Azerbaijan wants it himself. They have several times told told to unite with Turkey. They said let\u2019s unite as two states, one nation. Therefore this needs to be told officially. But in order to be told officially, there should be a request from the floor to the government. I mean they should tell that they want it. But this must be told persistently so that the government can take heart and come into action. This is very important. I mean as foundations, associations, people, all our Muslim brothers and sisters, all Turkish nation, we must insist on this. IN ANY CASE WE SHALL ENTER THE EUROPEAN UNION AS TURKISH ISLAMIC UNION, THE LEADER OF TURKISH ISLAMIC UNION. It is unbecoming for us to enter as a little country like this. It is suitable for us to enter as a leader. And we both develop Europe and America, Russia too. Let\u2019s make the whole world rich. I mean the mission of Turkey is to enrich, to strengthen, to ensure the peace, to bring tranquility. As Turkish nation we don\u2019t have a claim for racism. I mean Turkish nation hates it. In real terms, we don\u2019t have any racist in our nation.\nEnsonhaber, March 5-2009\nGeorge Friedman, founder of Stratfor which settles strategies for Pentagon and nicknamed as Shadow CIA DRAW ROADMAP FOR TURKEY AS THE LEADER OF ISLAMIC COUNTRIES while the Greater Middle East Initiative is being debated recently. Friedman, who stated that in the earthquake Turkey will be the fault line of the Islamic world, said: \u201dIF A COUNTRY WILL MANAGE THE ISLAMIC WORLD, IT MUST DEFINATELY BE TURKEY. It is not just economic. Turkey is the only country that both provides an environment of peace and becomes a friend for America. That\u2019s why there isn\u2019t any precaution for USA army to take.\u201d\nGeorge Friedman is preparing to publish his book \u2018The Next 100 Years\u2019 also in Turkey which he claims that 100 years later Turkey will be one of the four biggest superpower in the world. In his book Friedman stated: \u2018Countries like China and Russia yield to new superpowers like Turkey, Japan, Mexico and Poland by deteriorating.\u201d Leave aside Russian and Chinese, try to learn Turkish, Japanese, Polish and Mexican languages.\nFriedman who came to join Business Investment\u2019s Wide Angle meetings stated that in the economical crisis we are in, there is no longer such a union like European Union, and continued: \u201cTurkey is in far more better situation than many European Countries. That\u2019s why somehow I can\u2019t understand why Turkish people want to be a member of EU. I think 20 years ago EU membership was symbolizing modernism in Turkey. Today Turkey is already in a very good situation. THE PROBLEM IS, UNDER THESE CIRCUMSTANCES, EU SHOULD WANT TURKEY\u2026\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Home / Allergy / walnut allergy\nWalnut allergy is an uncommon type of food allergy. All of us have heard of the well-publicized peanut allergy. You might even have heard of milk and gluten allergies. But walnut allergy? Not so much. Because of the relative scarcity of reported cases of walnut allergy, it has been grouped all together with other tree nuts. However, the few who do have this allergy are thirsty for more information. This article provides a concise review of walnut allergy and its causes, diagnosis, and treatment.\nWalnuts are the edible seeds of the plant genus Juglans. It is classified under tree nuts in general. The walnut itself, and even the oils present in walnuts have been promoted as healthy and beneficial. It has even been promoted as a stress reaction regulator. Additionally, a handful of walnuts eaten daily have been shown to reduce the effect of other harmful fats on the arteries. Moreover, the phenolic and antioxidant properties of this tree nut are being studied as a cancer chemopreventive agent.\nThe walnuts that are available commercially are usually known as the Persian or English walnut. Furthermore, there is also another variety of walnuts. These are known as the Californian black walnut, or simply the black walnut. Of these two, the one which causes the majority of reported allergic reactions to walnuts is the English walnut. This can be attributed to its prevalence in the market. Another reason is that English walnuts contain twice as many allergenic proteins than black walnuts. Aside from walnuts, the person may also be allergic to other types of tree nuts. Almond, cashew, pistachio, or hazelnuts may also elicit an allergic reaction. Sometimes people who have allergic reactions to walnuts may also be allergic to peanuts.\nThis is explained by the medical community as a type of allergy cross-reaction. A cross-reaction between different tree nuts may be credited to its relative analogous protein components. Because of this, the immune system may mistakenly presume that it is the same allergen. Thus, its reaction will be the same as with the walnut allergen.\nAn allergy to walnuts means that your body sees some proteins in walnuts as dangerous. As such, the walnut proteins are called as allergens. The body then proceeds in releasing chemicals to attack these allergens. When the body attacks the allergen, the resulting effects are seen as the symptoms of the allergy.\nInitially, walnut consumption will produce rashes, hives, or swelling of the oral cavity.\nThis is also known as an oral allergy syndrome. When walnut we accidentally have eaten by allergic persons, a general feeling of itchiness can be felt. On top of this depending on the individual\u2019s sensitivity, itchy throat, sinusitis, congested nasal passages, watery eyes, wheezing, inflammation of the respiratory passageway and increased heart rate may be observed.\nAnaphylaxis may also take place in some sensitive people. It is a severe and grave allergic reaction brought about by walnut consumption. Emergency medication must be administered without delay when anaphylaxis occurs.\nAn allergic person may be prescribed with injectable epinephrine. This is used to manage anaphylaxis attacks. Nevertheless, the person must be advised to seek proper medical attention even after self-injection of epinephrine. Think about speaking to your allergist to get a prescription for this medicine. It can be a life-saving tool when you are accidentally exposed to walnuts.\nWalnut allergies can become a hassle in everyday living. However, when you are armed with the right information, the quality of your life will greatly improve. Learn to read and find out more about your condition and be free of your walnut allergy blues.\nis walnut allergy common secondary walnut allergy sudden walnut allergy tree nut allergy cure walnut allergy walnut allergy cross reactivity walnut allergy skin rash walnut allergy tongue walnut sensitivity\nPrevious Articlewinter allergies\nNext Articlebanana allergy symptoms",

        "raw_content": "Alicia Machado: 5 Fast Facts You Need to Know\nAlicia Machado\u2019s name was a source of contention once again during the first presidential debate on Monday night. Machado, a former beauty pageant queen, has said that Republican candidate Donald Trump has insulted her a number of times, calling her \u201cMissy Piggy\u201d and \u201cMiss Housekeeping\u201d. On Tuesday, Trump defended these comments by saying that Machado \u201cgained a massive amount of weight and it was a real problem\u201d, according to CNN. Trump publicly called Machado an \u201ceating machine\u201d on The Howard Stern Show, and even brought a camera crew to a gym to film her working out during her reign as Miss Universe.\nRead on to learn more about Alicia Machado.\n1. She Was the First Miss Universe After Trump Became Executive Producer of the Pageant\nAlicia Machado attends the 19th Annual National Hispanic Media Coalition Impact Awards Gala at Regent Beverly Wilshire Hotel on February 26, 2016. (Getty)\nMachado is a former Miss Universe. She won the title in 1996, when she was just 19-years-old. Machado was the first Miss Universe after Trump became executive producer of the Miss Universe organization.\nOn Monday night, Hillary Clinton attacked the Republican candidate for comments he\u2019s made about Machado. \u201cHe called this woman \u2018Miss Piggy\u2019, then he called her \u2018Miss Housekeeping\u2019 because she was Latina. Donald, she has a name\u2013 her name is Alicia Machado.\u201d\nThe following morning, Trump defended the comments he once made about Machado. He told Fox and Friends,\nShe was the winner and you know, she gained a massive amount of weight and it was a real problem. We had a real problem. Not only that, her attitude, and we had a real problem with her, so Hillary went back into the years and she found this girl \u2014 this was many years ago. And found the girl and talked about her like she was Mother Theresa. And it wasn\u2019t quite that way but that\u2019s ok. Hillary has to do what she has to do.\n2. Sources Say She Gained Nearly Sixty Pounds During Her Reign\nMachado has also said that Trump made fun of her Venezuelan accent. (Getty)\nAccording to a 1997 CNN article, Machado put on nearly 60 pounds during her reign as Miss Universe. At the time, Trump told CNN, \u201cSome people when they have pressure eat too much. Like me. Like Alicia.\u201d The article goes on to say, \u201cSince winning the crown, the former Miss Venezuela went from 118 pounds to \u2014 well \u2014 a number that kept growing like the size of the fish that got away.\u201d\nIn May, Machado contested the number of pounds she was reported to have gained\u2013 she says it was closer to 15, and that Trump\u2019s insults made her feel \u201cfat\u201d, and \u201cextremely depressed\u201d, according to CNN.\nDonald Trump Sniffling at the 2016 Presidential Debate: Is He Still Sick?\n3. She Has Starred in Venezuelan Soap Operas\nAfter her pageant career, Machado decided to dive into the world of television. In 1998, she made her debut on the Venezuelan soap opera, Samantha. She then went on to star in Infierno en el Paraiso.\nIn 2004, Machado chose to pursue a career as a TV commercial model, and was perhaps most successful for promoting a dieting product. She then went on to appear in a reality show called La Granja de los famosos.\u201d In February 2006, the beauty pageant queen modeled for an issue of Mexico\u2019s edition of Playboy.\nMachado received the Midia Award in Spain and the Ace Award in NYC, being named the new Actress of the year.\n4. She Has Since Suffered From Anorexia and Bulimia\nGracias se\u00f1ora @HillaryClinton su respeto a las mujeres y nuestras diferencias la hacen grande! Estoy con usted!\nTrump has admitted that he pushed Machado to lose weight\u2013 something that Machado says contributed to her suffering from anorexia and bulimia.\n\u201cAfter that episode, I was sick, had anorexia and bulimia for five years. Over the past 20 years, I\u2019ve gone to a lot of psychologists to combat this.\u201d\nIn 2005, Machado was engaged to a baseball player named Bobby Abreu. Their engagement ended after she was caught having sex on camera with a housemate in the reality show she was on at the time, La Granja.\n5. She Is Now a US Citizen\nDuring the debate on Monday night, Clinton made it clear to Donald Trump that Machado is now US citizen, and \u201cyou can bet she\u2019s going to vote this November.\u201d She became a US citizen in May of this year.\nMachado has posted her support for Hillary on various social media platforms.\nAlicia Machado: Who Is the Woman Trump Called \u201cMiss Piggy\u201d?\n2016 Presidential Election, Donald Trump, Hillary Clinton\nDonald Trump is under fire for comments he made about former Miss Universe 1996, Alicia Machado.

        "raw_content": "Contraception is such a controversial subject isn\u2019t it?\nMyself, I have tried a fair few methods.\nThe pill. In fact 4 kinds of pill. One of which I fell pregnant on!\nThe implant. This worked for about 6 years but I feel was a catalyst for some questionable behaviour.\nThe injection. Well, that just turned me into a big crazy loon who needed to go to crazyville on the crazy bus. Like literally. I was convinced the world was going to end and would lose my shit at the slightest inconvenience.\nI think if you have even the slightest hormone imbalance, naturally, when not on contraception, then as soon as you whack something into the mix then you are more than likely going to experience some kind of mental fucking breakdown and turn into a hormonal phsyco. (Yep, that\u2019s me!)\nI recently had the implant inserted again because natural family planning was becoming a bit to risque for my liking! I felt the implant was the best of a bad bunch for me. Having had it before, I feel like I can get a handle on the way it makes me act and gain some kind of control over my moods (sometimes). Before you ask, I did consider the coil. But for me that wasn\u2019t an option. Personally, the thought of it makes me shudder all over. I have heard good and bad things about it, as with any other contraception, it stems down to \u2018what is right for you\u2019.\nSo I am a month into my Nexplanon shit storm and I am more up and down than a fucking pogo stick. In the last week I have cried and laughed in the same breath about 162 times. Had about 3 mini breakdowns and then the next moment have never been so happy. Henry has no idea what is going on and my OH is just flabbergasted at the pure sight of me having a total shit fit because I can\u2019t open a pack of bacon (that\u2019s a minor paddy, you don\u2019t even want to know what happened when I couldn\u2019t control my curly barnet the other morning). But I knew what I was in for, that\u2019s the sad thing about it. I was prepared for the mental torment that it was going to bring me. I knew it was going to make me want to eat a house and then a small car for dessert. I knew it was going to make me feel like I was stuck in the first trimester of pregnancy in loop for a thousand years. But I still did it. Why?\nWhy is it we put ourselves through this torture? All in the name of sex? I wish there was a switch on men\u2019s penises that you could switch on and off. \u201cTonight darling, I am going to flick your switch. It\u2019s time to make a baby!\u201d (A girl can dream). Just imagine though. Imagine not having to pump our bodies full of hormones and being able to run naked through a field of poppies and unicorns.\nWhen it comes down to it. We do it to have control. Control over our own lives. Having a baby is a big decision and some people aren\u2019t lucky enough to have the option of contraception to control their future. But at the same time that we are gaining control of our futures, we are losing control of our minds and bodies. How is that fair?\nWhen will something change? When will men have to take a pill or get stabbed with a needle?\nNever. Because that\u2019s not how life works. Or so \u2018they\u2019 say. Well I say fuck \u2018them\u2019. I am off to invent a male implant that has to be painfully inserted into their ballsacks and will cause them to cry at YouTube videos and eat whole birthday cakes for breakfast.\nHealth, Motherhood, Uncategorized\nContraception, family planning, Health, hormones, mental health, parenting, sex, sexual health, women's health\n2 thoughts on \u201cThe memoirs of a hormonal phsyco\u201d\nRose Tinted Ramblings says:\nOMG I really feel for you. Mental health and hormonal imbalances can devastate life yet the medical profession seemingly has no interest or motivation to research it. There are days when I\u2019m not safe to drive. Can\u2019t be trusted alone in a kitchen. Shouldn\u2019t attend a meeting\u2026 Yet for us women in our society its just a normal abnormality\nThank you for your comment! It\u2019s crazy isn\u2019t it, we just get on with it and accept that our crazy hormones are just a part of our lives!",

        "raw_content": "New wood processing line supplied to Estonia\u2019s Horizon Pulp & Paper by Andritz Group\nHorizon Pulp & Paper (Horizon), a leading sack kraft producer from Estonia with exports to over 55 countries, upgrades its wood processing line with state-of-the-art technology supplied by a globally leading technology company Andritz Group, according to an agreement signed in Kehra.\n\u201cNew technology enables to achieve the full potential of the plant\u2019s recent investments for advanced cooking and washing processes and improve the chip quality. New equipment fully covers Horizon\u2019s need for wood chips with the current annual paper production capacity of 70,000 tons annually and would also match the requirements of 110,000 tons annually, once a new paper machine will be installed within the company\u2019s investment program\u201d, said Aime-Kersti Kelder, Member of the Management Board of Horizon Pulp & Paper said.\nThe investment of the processing line exceeds \u20ac3.0m and it will be completed by the middle of 2014. The selected line presents the newest wood processing technology and consists of log infeed, debarker, chipper and chip screen.\nIn the pulp-making process the quality of the pulp fiber depends on the chip quality. The line will have a capacity to de-bark and chip 62 solid cubic meters over bark (SOB) per hour; and in near future the line will be able to reach 120 solid cubic meters over bark per hour with addition of one more de-barker unit. The process detaches bark, sawdust and oversized chips from the system. They will be used by the company as biofuel.\nIn 2012 Horizon launched a new super-batch technology pulp cooking plant, as a part of a \u20ac55m and three-year investment program of the company. This year a new lime kiln will become operational enabling the company to recycle more than 90 per cent of the lime used in the production.\nHorizon Pulp & Paper is the only sack kraft paper producer in Estonia that exports more than 55 countries around the globe. A subsidiary of the international industry group Tolaram headquartered in Singapore, Horizon possesses substantially modernised production facilities with a total investment of approximately \u20ac80m in over 15 years, about \u20ac40m of this channeled to investments of reducing emissions. Since 1995 when Tolaram Group acquired the mill it has invested significantly in achieving better standards of quality, efficiency and environmental protection. The company\u2019s foundations date back to 1938 when Kehra Paper Mill started operating in the premises of current Horizon mill.\nMrs Aime-Kersti Kelder",

        "raw_content": "Update on Ontario Animal Cruelty Case\nInvestigators discovered neglected horses starving on the property being rented by SpeedSport Stables.\nAnother court date, the third so far, has passed with no appearance by the defendants in a horrific cruelty case uncovered in May of this year. SpeedSport Stables has left a trail of dead and starving horses as they have moved through the USA and into Ontario, Canada. The owners, David Lee Small, Victoria Small and Jason Leroy Small, are currently facing nine counts of animal cruelty and abuse causing death. On the property they rented in Stouffville, Ontario, 15 horses were found starving and living in horrendous conditions, and 13 horses were discovered dead, buried in a field, under a manure pile and in a trailer.\nAs frustrating as it has been for the group of horse lovers dedicated to pursuing justice in this case, some encouraging news came out of today\u2019s brief session. The Crown is on the record that it will be pursing jail time for the defendants, essentially stating that it will be pursuing the most severe penalties possible under the law \u201cgiven the serious nature of the case.\u201d Under provincial animal welfare legislation, the maximum penalty is a $60,000 fine, two years in jail, or both, for each count.\nThe Crown attorney also noted that defense counsel might end up in a conflict of interest position and that each defendant would be wise to seek their own counsel. While it sounds like simply more delays, it does appear that this case will become a landmark one for Ontario\u2019s Animal Protection Act and the province is proceeding carefully so as not to jeopardize any charges.\nThe Crown also applied a \u201cJenkins Caution\u201d allowing for the arrest of the defendants should they not show up at the next court date of October 26th.\nIf you are interested in encouraging the application of the most severe penalties in this case, a petition and brief survey are available here. Furthermore, if you\u2019d like to contribute to a Community Impact Statement being drafted by attorney D. Sid Freeman, click here.\nTags: abuse, David Lee Small, Jason Leroy Small, Victoria Small",

        "raw_content": "***Part 1: Verse 9. For ye know, etc. The apostle Paul was accustomed to illustrate every subject, and to enforce every duty, where it could be done, by a reference to the life and sufferings of the Lord Jesus Christ. The design of this verse is apparent. It is to show the duty of giving liberally to the objects of benevolence, from the fact that the Lord Jesus was willing to become poor in order that he might benefit others. The idea is, that he who was Lord and Proprietor of the universe, and who possessed all things, was willing to leave his exalted station in the bosom of the Father and to become poor, in order that we might become rich in the blessings of the gospel, in the means of grace, and as heirs of all things; and that we who are thus benefited, and who have such an example, should be willing to part with our earthly possessions in order that we may benefit others.\nThe grace. The benignity, kindness, mercy, goodness. His coming in this manner was a proof of the highest benevolence.\nThough he was rich. The riches of the Redeemer here referred to, stand opposed to that poverty which he assumed and manifested when he dwelt among men. It implies\n(1.) his pre-existence, for he became poor. He had been rich; yet not in this world. He did not lay aside wealth here on earth after he had possessed it, for he had none. He was not first rich and then poor on earth, for he had no earthly wealth. The Socinian interpretation is, that he was \u201crich in power and in the Holy Ghost;\u201d but it was not true that he laid these aside, and that he became poor in either of them. He had power, even in his poverty, to still the waves, and to raise the dead, and he was always full of the Holy Ghost. His family was poor; and his parents were poor; and he was himself poor all his life. This, then, must refer to a state of antecedent riches before his assumption of human nature; and the expression is strikingly parallel to that in Philippians 2:6, seq. \u201cWho, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God, but made himself of no reputation,\u201d etc.\n(2.) He was rich as the Lord and Proprietor of all things. He was the Creator of all, (John 1:3; Colossians 1:16 and as Creator he had a right to all things, and the disposal of all things. The most absolute right which can exist is that acquired by the act of creation; and this right the Son of God possessed over all gold, and silver, and diamonds, and pearls; over all earth and lands; over all the treasures of the ocean, and over all worlds. The extent and amount of his riches, therefore, is to be measured by the extent of his dominion over the universe; and to estimate his riches, therefore, we are to conceive of the sceptre which he sways over the distant worlds. What wealth has man that can compare with the riches of the Creator and Proprietor of all? How poor and worthless appears all the gold that man can accumulate, compared with the wealth of Him whose are the silver, and the gold, and the cattle upon a thousand hills?\nYet for your sakes. That is, for your sakes as a part of the great family that was to be redeemed. In what respect it was for their sake, the apostle immediately adds when he says, it was that they might be made rich. It was not for his own sake, but it was for our.\n***Part two: He became poor. In the following respects:\n(1.) He chose a condition of poverty, a rank of life that was usually that of poverty. He \u201ctook upon himself the form of a servant,\u201d Philippians 2:7.\n(2.) He was connected with a poor family. Though of the family and lineage of David, (Luke 9:4) yet the family had fallen into decay, and was poor. In the Old Testament he is beautifully represented as a shoot or sucker that starts up from the root of a decayed tree. See Barnes \u201cIsaiah 11:1\u201d.\n(3.) His whole life was a life of poverty. He had no home, Luke 9:58. He chose to be dependent on the charity of the few friends that he drew around him, rather than to create food for the abundant supply of his own wants. He had no farms or plantations; he had no splendid palaces; he had no money hoarded in useless coffers or in banks; he had no property to distribute to his friends. His mother he commended when he died to the charitable attention of one of his disciples,. (John 19:27 and all his personal property seems to have been the raiment which he wore, and which was divided among the soldiers that crucified him. Nothing is more remarkable than the difference between the plans of the Lord Jesus and those of many of his followers and professed friends. He formed no plan for becoming rich, and he always spoke with the deepest earnestness of the dangers which attend an effort to accumulate property. He was among the most poor of the sons of men in his life; and few have been the men on earth who have not had as much as he had to leave to surviving friends, or to excite the cupidity of those who should fall heirs to their property when dead.\n(4.) He died poor. He made no will in regard to his property, for he had none to dispose of. He knew well enough the effect which would follow if he had amassed wealth, and had left it to be divided among his followers. They were very imperfect; and even around the cross there might have been anxious discussion, and perhaps strife about it, as there is often now over the coffin and the unclosed grave of a rich and foolish father who has died. Jesus intended that his disciples should never be turned away from the great work to which he called them, by any wealth which he would leave them; and he left them not even a keepsake as a memorial of his name. All this is the more remarkable, from two considerations:\n(a.) That he had it in his power to choose the manner in which he would come. He might have come in the condition of a splendid prince. He might have rode in a chariot of ease, or have dwelt in a magnificent palace. He might have lived with more than the magnificence of an oriental prince; and might have bequeathed treasures greater than those of Croesus or Solomon to his followers. But he chose not to do it.\n(b.) It would have been as right and proper for him to have amassed wealth, and to have sought princely possessions, as for any of his followers. What is right for them would have been right for him. Men often mistake on this subject; and though it cannot be demonstrated that all his followers should aim to be as poor as he was, yet it is undoubtedly true that he meant that his example should operate constantly to check their desire of amassing wealth. In him it was voluntary; in us there should be always a readiness to be poor, if such be the,will of God; nay, there should be rather a preference to be in moderate circumstances, that we may thus be like the Redeemer.\nThat ye through his poverty might be rich. That is, might have durable and eternal riches, the riches of God\u2019s everlasting favour. This includes\n(1.) the present possession of an interest in the Redeemer himself. \u201cDo you see these extended fields?\u201d said the owner of a vast plantation to a friend. \u201cThey are mine. All this is mine.\u201d \u201cDo you see yonder poor cottage?\u201d was the reply of the friend, as he directed his attention to the abode of a poor widow. \u201cShe has more than all this. She has CHRIST as her portion; and that is more than all.\u201d He who has an interest in the Redeemer has a possession that is of more value than all that princes can bestow.\n(2.) The heirship of an eternal inheritance, the prospect of immortal glory, Romans 8:17.\n(3.) Everlasting treasures, in heaven. Thus the Saviour compares the heavenly blessings to treasures, Matthew 6:20. Eternal and illimitable wealth is theirs in heaven; and to raise us to that blessed inheritance was the design of the Redeemer in consenting to become poor. This, the apostle says, was to be secured by his poverty. This includes probably the two following things, viz.:\n(1.) That it was to be by the moral influence of the fact that he was poor, that men were to be blessed. He designed by his example to counteract the effect of wealth; to teach men that this was not the thing to be aimed at; that there were more important purposes of life than to obtain money; and to furnish a perpetual reproof of those who are aiming to amass riches. The example of the Redeemer thus stands before the whole church and the world as a living and constant memorial of the truth that men need other things than wealth; and that there are objects that demand their time and influence other than the accumulation of property. It is well to have such an example; well to have before us the example of one-who never formed any plan for gain, and who constantly lived above the world. In a world where gain is the great object, where all men are forming plans for it, it is well to have one great model that shall continually demonstrate the folly of it, and that shall point to better things.\n(2.) The word \u201cpoverty\u201d here may include more than a mere want of property. It may mean all the circumstances of his low estate and humble condition; his sufferings and his woes. The whole train of his privations was included in this; and the idea is, that he gave himself to this lowly condition in order that by his sufferings he might procure for us a part in the kingdom of heaven. His poverty was a part of the sufferings included in the work of the atonement. For it was not the sufferings of the garden merely, or the pangs of the cross, that constituted the atonement; it was the series of sorrows and painful, acts of humiliation which so thickly crowded his life. By all these he designed that we should be made rich; and in view of all these the argument of the apostle is, we should be willing to deny ourselves to do good to others.\nhttp://forums.carm.org/vbb/showthread.php?2330-Was-Jesus-Rich-A-change-of-opinion&p=49012&viewfull=1#post49012\n\u00ab Walter Martin \u2013 Evil and Human Suffering\nDr J Vernon McGee Q&A \u2013 Is Tithing for Today? \u00bb",

Wrote a blog about men and deleted it. It wasn\u2019t for me. I was writing for an audience.\nI want to go back to writing as if no one is reading. It\u2019s an interesting experiment. If no one was reading this, what would I write my journal about today?\nGod, I would tell you about all of these crazy feelings that I had yesterday. So many in one day. But they are gone now, so I\u2019ll let them be. Sorrow remains, though. A sense of loss. Death. I have let go of my last lingering attachments to men of the past. I have told them all no, and I have let go of the ones who I wanted who told me no\u2026 And nothing remains in this emptiness but fear\u2026 What will I do now? Now that I have no job, no man from the past, nothing blocking me from doing and being all that I said I would be and do?\nWhat if I\u2019m not good enough? What if I can\u2019t do it? What if that dream man doesn\u2019t exist? Or worse, what if he does exist but he doesn\u2019t want me? Allah, I am looking for the faith that I will need to move forward. Because it is so much easier to go back to a life that I at least understand.\nMake me Myself, please. Let me live the life that I am. Let me be courageous enough to move forward into the unknown. I am almost there and sometimes it feels like I am already there and other times it feels like I am so far away. Let me know the Truth. Let me be the Truth. Surely it is possible to grow with ease. Surely it is possible for me to traverse this part of my life with confidence and faith and joy and strength. Surely I can release the past and not fall apart.\nI would like to be me now. I would like to be Brave and Strong and Confident and Beautiful. I would like to be a woman of Integrity, who does what she says she is going to do. I want to release all of these doubts now and see them as the devils that they are. I want to do the things that I came to Hawaii to do. Now. There is no more time for fear. There is no more time blame. There is no more time for talk without action. There is no more time for anything but Love.\nAnd so, I am coming to You, God, with my choices, and I am asking for your Blessing. Take me over completely. I am willing to grow. I am choosing to grow. I am choosing to move forward and stand up boldly in the Truth of all that am. And it is OK with me if I\u2019m more than I thought I am. And it\u2019s even OK if I\u2019m less than I thought I am\u2026\nI just realized something. Here is where I get it from. Here is where I find courage. Here with You. When I can talk to you like this, when I can tell you my fears, when I can get it all off my chest, You talk back to me. And you tell me what to do. And you give me the visions and the Guidance that will take me to the next step. And You give me comfort\u2026 The fog clears and I am able to take another step. Thank you\u2026\nI\u2019m already me, aren\u2019t I? I\u2019m on some next level stuff. I have done a lot of clearing. Really I have done some extraordinary clearing\u2026\nMy mom just called me away to talk about some stuff. I did something I usually don\u2019t do. I just listened. When I felt inclined to think judgmental thoughts or give advice, I just let go of those thoughts and listened\u2026\nI am becoming a better person, a stronger person, a more Loving person. My courage is here in my prayers. In my conversations with You, I find the Truth again and I get a boost that helps me remember which direction to go. The fears fall away and I am renewed with the faith to keep taking the actions that you have led me to take. Let\u2019s see what happens. If I do everything that You have led me to do. Everything.

(Source: AP)\nBarcelona earned a spot in the quarterfinals of the Copa del Rey on Thursday, but its continued participation in the tournament remains under threat. Lionel Messi and Ousmane Dembele led Barcelona to a comfortable 3-0 win over Levante at Camp Nou Stadium, helping it advance 4-2 on aggregate. However, the Catalan club could be disqualified for allegedly using a suspended player in the first leg.\nLevante said it will make a formal complaint to the Spanish soccer federation on Friday, ahead of the draw for the quarterfinals. The four-time defending Copa champion has denied any wrongdoing for using youth player Juan \u201cChumi\u201d Brandariz in last week\u2019s match in Valencia.\n\u201cWe don\u2019t have any doubts,\u201d Barcelona coach Ernesto Valverde said. \u201cWe believe we will be in the draw tomorrow. We did everything right and we won on the field, which is where we had to win.\u201d Levante said Chumi should not have played because of an accumulation of yellow cards with Barcelona\u2019s \u201cB\u201d team, arguing that his suspension applied to the senior team as well, including in Copa matches.\n\u201cWe prefer to win on the field, but the regulations exist and everyone needs to follow them,\u201d Levante coach Paco Lopez said. \u201cLet\u2019s see what happens.\u201d\nThe Spanish federation is expected to rule on Levante\u2019s complaint before Friday\u2019s draw.\nReal Madrid was eliminated in the tournament\u2019s round of 16 in 2015 for using striker Denis Cheryshev while he was suspended.\n\u201cWe are surprised, we found out about it by the press,\u201d Barcelona spokesman Josep Vives said. \u201cWe analyzed the situation and concluded that Chumi\u2019s participation was legal.\u201d\nWith Messi back in the lineup after being rested in the first leg, Barcelona easily reversed the 2-1 deficit from the first match. The Argentine playmaker set up goals by Dembele in the 30th and 31st minutes, then sealed the victory by scoring in the 54th.\nBarcelona has made it at least to the quarterfinals in the Copa in nine straight seasons. It won the title five times in the last seven years.\nEarlier Thursday, Espanyol defeated Villarreal 3-1 at home with two goals by striker Borja Iglesias to advance 5-3 on aggregate, while Real Betis salvaged a 2-2 draw at Real Sociedad to reach the last eight on away goals after a 0-0 first-leg draw.\nReal Madrid, Girona, Valencia, Getafe and Sevilla also made it to the quarterfinals. Atletico Madrid was eliminated by Girona on Wednesday.\n1 Players face career or conscience dilemma over Qatar World Cup\n2 Barcelona deny breaking rules by playing Chumi Brandariz",

He was a central figure in the New Hollywood wave of filmmaking. After directing \"The Rain People\", he co-wrote the 1970 film \"Patton\", earning the Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay along with co-writer Edmund H. North. His directorial prominence was cemented with the release in 1972 of \"The Godfather\", a film which revolutionized movie-making in the gangster genre, earning praise from both critics and the public before winning three Academy Awards\u2014including his second Oscar, Best Picture, and his first nomination for Best Director. In this interview, he discusses his many early filmmaking experiences leading up to his 1984 film \"The Cotton Club\"! The Cotton Club was a famous night club in Harlem. The story follows the people who visited the club, those who ran it. The film is peppered with the Jazz music that made it so famous.\nAbout the Interviewer: Sir Christopher John Frayling (born 25 December 1946) is a British educationalist and writer, known for his study of popular culture. He has had a wide output as a writer and critic on subjects ranging from vampires to westerns. He has written and presented television series such as \"The Art of Persuasion\" on advertising and \"Strange Landscape\" on the Middle Ages. He has conducted a series of radio and television interviews with figures from the world of film, including Woody Allen, Deborah Kerr, Ken Adam, Francis Ford Coppola and Clint Eastwood. He has written and presented several television series, including \"The Face of Tutankhamun\" and \"Nightmare: Birth of Horror\".\nAnd then he gave you the chance to write and direct your own picture, Dementia 13\nquote-leftMaking that was a great experience for me. It was really my first feature film, and for the very modest means, it looks like a movie. I had the pleasure of working with some wonderful actors - Patrick McGee, now passed away, was a good character...\nWould you count it as one of your movies?\nquote-leftOh, definitely. Dementia is my first movie.\nYour next film, You're a Big Boy Now, was your masters thesis at UCLA. How did that come about?\nquote-leftI was very impressed by things like The Knack and all of those films. I loved the Beatles films when I saw them, and was very interested in the idea of using contemporary music in a dramatic film rather than just in a musical film in the Richard Lester style. I wanted to use some of the energy and cinematic style I saw in The Knack in my story of coming of age.\nIt's a story of a young man going to the big city. Did you feel it was autobiographical in any way?\nquote-leftYeah, I had gone to military school when I was fifteen, and I became very frustrated. I ran away from school and went to New York and wandered around for a good ten days, sleeping where I could and having certain crazy adventures, frightened that my parents were really going to be mad. A lot of the textures in that film were out of experiences that I had then.\nDid you feel it was a mature work?\nquote-leftWell, it was obviously not a mature work, but it was certainly well put together, and had some imagination and was a good indication that I had worked with actors before in theatre and could stage real scenes with actors. And it had some funny moments. I don't think it was a world-shattering movie, but it had some good things in it.\nWhat did the examiners say when you submitted it as your thesis?\nquote-leftAt that point, I had won several awards at UCLA for my writing and was already known for my brash attempt to leap outside of the school confines and really make a feature film. I wanted to make one very badly, and it was very hard to make a feature film in those days. Everyone was pleased that I had done it, and for a few years it set a dramatic precedent at the school.\nYou then moved on to a really big studio production, Finian's Rainbow, probably the last of the big Warner Brothers big studio musicals.\nquote-leftWell, there are some interesting things to know about Finian's Rainbow. One was that I had made a private resolve that from that moment on I would only direct original screenplays, original writing of my own. That was really always my desire and my dream, and in my career I have violated it many more times than I have kept to it. Of course I knew all about Finian's Rainbow and all the Broadway musicals of that era. I can still sing every song from all of those musicals, and do whenever asked! What happened was that it was too thrilling to consider being a director of a big Warner Brothers musical, so I violated my rule and accepted what I thought was this job. In fact, the big musical that year was Camelot, and the idea was that we would make our movie on Camelot's sets.\nThe show dealt with a lot of racial inequality and sharecroppers from the late forties, and it was very hard for me to imagine doing this stuff on phoney sets at Warner Brothers. I requested that we take the company to Kentucky and find a way to do the old forties Finian's Rainbow in a way that would be relevant in this new sixties that was beginning to have race consciousness in a new way. But of course we ended up doing it for not very much money in the Camelot sets in the way the studio wanted to do it.\nI was very unhappy during the production because you didn't get to cast, you didn't get to pick the art director, you didn't really get to edit it exactly the way you chose and you didn't get to do the final post production. Out of my frustration one of the highlights of the picture was when this skinny kid, who was more or less my contemporary, became a friend of mine, and that was George Lucas. We conspired to leave the studio stuff and get little truck and put our cameras in it and drive across the country and make movies in a more personal, artistic way. And so I left the Finian's Rainbow experience and went right into The Rain People with George there.\nIt seems very ahead of its time now, as a road movie that almost makes itself up as it goes along. Did you have a script to start with?\nquote-leftThere was quite a specific script. It was the first of two films that I got to write and make as I had hoped all my films would be. One of the criteria was that it would have a serious subject matter, something about people. One of our heroes in drama school was Tennessee Williams, and we thought of serious drama in that way, so Rain People was written a little with his influence. And yet we took it on the road with a very elastic type of crew that could function anywhere, and as we went across the country we were free to go anywhere - we had no pre-picked locations.\nDoes the central character learn anything as she goes along?\nquote-leftShe was a woman trying to leave any and all responsibility, and finding in the form of this pathetic football player who needed her so much that she couldn't shed the responsibility. It was as though the unborn child she carried inside her could talk to her, saying \"don't leave me\". And at the end she says to the fellow \"Come with us & we'll go back and live as a family.\" I think I was trying to express some ideas about what basically became women's liberation five years later - trying at once to be sensitive to those issues in a woman that would cause her to want her own freedom and yet at the same time trying to collide them with a sense of family.\nIt was startling to just see a movie in those days about a woman who gets up and leaves her husband. In Spain, where it won an award at San Sebastian, you should have heard these guys going on - \"What kind of woman would do this?\" So on one hand it was ahead of its time, and in my opinion it's still ahead of its time because ultimately we will always come to realise that we have to find a way to create families.\nWhen you were offered The Godfather after The Rain People, it must really have seemed like an offer you couldn't refuse\nquote-leftWell, it's maybe hard for people to realise now, but in those days The Godfather was in the very early period of its success as a book. It wasn't quite the mammoth book that it became after I had already been given the job, and to me it had a lot of sleazy aspects to it that were cut out for the movie. I didn't like it very much for those reasons, and I was very frightened of getting once again co-opted into another low-budget project. There wasn't much money, and in those days they wanted young directors because they were cheap. So I did turn it down once or twice.\nHow did you respond to criticism that The Godfather was overly sympathetic in its portrayal of this mafia family?\nquote-leftFor the purposes of The Godfather, we took this family and we played by the rules. For example, it was very important to know that Vito Corleone would not deal in drugs. He was a good bad guy. On that level of genre movie-making, there are the good bad guys and the bad bad guys, and it's all right if the good bad guys kill the bad bad guys. So when people talked to me at that time about the movie, I thought that it wasn't different from many genre pictures that on that level dealt with characters that were killers.\nI've always tried to make my films be beautifully acted, and part of making films be beautifully acted is to give it the illusion that it's been worked out on the set, when in fact everything may not have been. And the big success I had on The Godfather in creating all those on-screen relationships came from one dinner I arranged. It was an Italian dinner with a real table and with all the boys - Marlon at the head of the table, Sonny, Al Pacino\u00c9..they had never met each other before really, and my sister who played the sister in the film served the spaghetti and the wine. And it was just like playing at being together as a family - that kind of sensual opportunity, sense memory, if you like, gave them a way to relate to each other. How to make Hollywood megastars into a happy family.\nI was known as an actors' director from many many years further back than I was even known in film. I think I try to give my actors a certain sense of life that comes by using what the actor can contribute. But very often the text is written, it's just that I have the skill and experience to work with actors whereas many directors don't have any experience of that. They sort of give them a script and they say their lines and they stage it somewhat and that's it.\nWhere did you get the idea for The Conversation?\nquote-leftIt started with a conversation, ironically, with Irving Kershner. We were talking about eavesdropping and bugging, and he told me about these long distance microphones that could be used to overhear what people were saying.\nA film like The Conversation was only made because I made The Godfather. Nobody would let me make a film like that - that is not the kind of film that seduces an audience. My film, which I don't consider a film about crime, is not the kind of picture that panders to an audience. It's a difficult film.\nYour next big film was Apocalypse Now. What image of the Vietnam war were you trying to put over?\nquote-leftWhat I most hoped for was to take the audience through an unprecedented experience of war and have them react much as the people who went through the war did - come out being saying \"I understand what it is. I don't know if I can say what it is, but I feel I know what it is.\"\nThere was an idea from George Lucas and John Milius to do it in 16mm, all very documentary-like, but I would have done it in Cinerama (wide-screen process) if I could. As long as you're going to stage this war, why not get it with all the power and beauty that film is capable of?\nAnd when you left for the Philippines, you didn't have an ending?\nquote-leftWe did have an ending. At the point you could almost say \"Enter the press.\" The press in a new dimension that I never understood before. I always thought that they were the people who were reporting on what's going on. I never knew that they were part of the phenomenon itself, and they were a participant trying to make their own careers out of it. With Apocalypse Now begins a long and probably never resolved disrespect that I have for the American entertainment press. They haunted us on that picture - they were constantly coming though not invited, they gave the impression back home that it was sort of \"Apple Records\" out there without any organisation. In fact you couldn't do what we did without being organised. It was like being an army out in the Philippines, and this notion of the film not having an ending was and wasn't true, to the extent that something that dealt with those ideas and those themes is difficult to end. It was a film about morality, and of course morality doesn't have any place in the middle of a rough war like that.\nDid Brando's arrival affect the way you thought of the ending?\nquote-leftWell, as you've probably heard, he arrived extremely overweight, much more so than our agreement with him. He had said he would come at a weight that would let him at some level be believable as a military officer. When he did arrive so overweight, I went to him with suggestions to rewrite the ending so that Colonel Kurtz's sickness, moral sickness as it were, was related to it. I really was in an incredibly tough situation - here I was financing the film myself. After a few days what I finally did was by dressing him only in black and photographing only his face, and by using another actor who was quite tall, try to give him the impression of being almost a mythic giant. And then by using his face - he has a wonderful face and incredible intelligence - to try to have this ending of the movie relate philosophically to certain things that the character had seen. Of course the man was also partly insane.\nCan we talk about American Zoetrope and One from the Heart? What were you trying to achieve by starting that studio?\nquote-leftI did sincerely believe that the medium was about to undergo a big transition, that it was about to become electronic. And I thought that possibly, if you had a studio of the future that enabled you take advantage of the great illusion making quality of television, we would be able to make serious writing and shows of all types with dimensions that really you had never done before. I wanted to begin to prepare for a future cinema that would basically be a mega television with studio capability. Something that would enable you to do Lawrence of Arabia right in your own back yard if you wanted to.\nOne From the Heart was of course the beginning experiment to tune up the studio as a whole. My dream was to do hundreds of movies in those studios, and so it was in a way a sampler. It was a simple story, but a story told entirely in song - I wanted to try a story all by song in this very unreal yet pleasant way.\nIt feels to me now like an exercise in style - I thought it should have been called One From the Machine. There's not a lot of heart in it.\nquote-leftWell, there's not a lot of machinery in it. It's basically stagecraft and a kind of musical parable about a couple. It was no more complex than that - it was a little musical valentine.\nWhy did the experiment fail at that time?\nquote-leftIt was a big studio and there were a lot of people and a lot of assistants, and they had assistants, and everybody wanted to make normal Hollywood competitive wages. And the failure of One From the Heart to bring that kind of money in, and the ongoing attack by the entertainment press of the films just made it impossible. At any rate, the place was destroyed financially.\nYou then went on to make two films based on books from the sixties - The Outsiders and Rumblefish. Why did you decide that the time was right for those films, the mid-eighties?\nquote-leftOne day I got a letter from some little kids, kids maybe eleven, twelve. Forty of them signed a letter asking that we buy and make into a film this book by Susan Hinton, The Outsiders. They loved that book, and they wanted someone who would make it exactly the way the book was, and not ruin it the way a lot of film companies do. So we did buy the book, and when the crisis had hit at Zoetrope, there were really two ways for me to go. One was to just shed it all and let go and quit the film business, and the other was to try to fight back by being as productive as possible and making one film after another. I like kids very much and I get along with them, and I thought it would be a real tonic to go off somewhere more Rain People style with a bunch of kids, young boys and a girl, and make the story just for those kids. And that movie was very very successful, it made a lot of money and it saved this company.\nWhich brings us around to The Cotton Club...\nquote-leftFor me, the most interesting part of The Cotton Club was the theme of the black and white, in so far as the club had the most talented black performers of its day and yet it was segregated and black people couldn't go see the show. It was the hoi polloi, the real high society people who went and I wanted to try something with two worlds, a black world and a white world interweaving between each other and of course meeting at the Cotton Club with the numbers and the shows. There was a kind of Wild West temperament in New York in those days, the twenties, and specifically the gangsters were German-American gangsters, and also of Jewish and Irish descent and historically, they were about to be part of turning over the power to the Italian gangsters in the thirties.\nHow interested were you in historical accuracy?\nquote-leftI have worked on several films that have used historical information, learning from the master, Mario Puzo. His technique generally is to take from the press archives and records and court records the real facts of these people, but to fudge a little sometimes in the area of combining two characters into one or sometimes moving things that were really happening in 1936 to 1934. I heard people who had actually been there saying \"Is that Lulubellle? That's not her! Oh, that didn't happen that way!\" But I feel this really is the tenor of the Cotton Club. Maybe it was a little sleazier than I portrayed it, maybe certain people were treated a little more poorly than I showed it, but the themes that are there - of servitude and a desire to use your talent to break out of that servitude into some sort of white world - certainly, that was the truth.\nquote-leftWell, I have great concern and personal feeling about the fact that I have not been able to pursue being a writer and writing original dramatic material. Now that the film industry in our country has been pretty much entirely won over by the interests of the TV mind and the profit syndrome, my dream to write original material and to make it in an inexpensive, and therefore possible, way, got eclipsed.\n* \u00a9 (1984) Adger W.

Cooper\nTurn the page to read the articles\u2026\nIntroduction To mark the publication of the 200 th volume of New Phytologist, Editor-in-Chief Alistair Hetherington has invited two of his predecessors, Peter Ayres and Ian Woodward, to personally select articles that they deem to be significant from the journal\u00e2&#x20AC;&#x2122;s archive. The selected papers have been grouped together to form this Virtual Special Issue (VSI). A special Editorial has been written to accompany the collection, which places these papers in an historical, and where possible, a contemporary context. Selecting a small number of articles for inclusion in this VSI was no easy task, and a diverse group of papers with a publication span from 1904 to 2010 is presented in this collection. The articles selected by Professors Ayres and Woodward have not been chosen to cover the entire scope of the journal, but nonetheless, they typify the enduring nature of the research published in New Phytologist over 200 volumes, and illustrate how papers published in some cases over 100 years ago are as relevant today as they were upon first publication. This collection is a reflection upon a rich and illustrious history, however, the focus of New Phytologist is firmly on the future. The journal continues to publish the very best in ground -breaking science and is leading the way in technological advancements in publishing, becoming a fully online-only journal in 2012. In addition, the New Phytologist Trust is committed to supporting and nurturing the next generation of plant scientists.\nAll of the papers included in this VSI are freely available without subscription. The New Phytologist Trust ensures that all New Phytologist content is free to view one year after publication and that all Tansley reviews and Forum articles are free to access as soon as they are published. We hope that this collection will inspire readers to explore the journal\u00e2&#x20AC;&#x2122;s archive as well as our current content, where they will find seminal research works alongside an unparalleled collection of authoritative review articles, letters and commentary.\nArticle Effect of gibberellic acid on the growth and anatomy of Coleus blumei, Antirrhinum majus and Salvia splendens\nJ. M. Bostrack, B. E. Struckmeyer\nSummary New Phytologist (1967) 66: 539 \u00e2&#x20AC;&#x201C; 544 doi: 10.1111/j.1469-8137.1967.tb05425.x\nPlants of Coleus blumei (Coleus), Antirrhinum majus (snapdragon) and Salvia splendens (Salvia) exhibited three common responses to foliar applications of 50 mg/l aqueous solution of gibherellic acid (GA); elongation of the internodes, hyponasty and chlorosis. Elongation of subapical internodes was a result primarily of cell division in both Antirrhinum majus and Salvia splendens. Gibberellic acid at 500 mg/l caused less elongation of the sub-apical region than at 50 mg/l and 100 mg/l in S. splendens. Treated plants had a smaller stem diameter and more xylem parenchyma. Coleus blumei cuttings showed reduced rooting when treated with 50 mg/l GA.\nArticle The osmotic strength of cell sap in plants growing under different conditions\nE. Drabble, H. Lake\nNew Phytologist (1905) 4: 189 - 191 doi: 10.1111/j.1469-8137.1905.tb05901.x\nComparatively few observations on the osmotic strength of cell sap in plants growing under different physical conditions seem to have been made. The most familiar is probably Mr. Francis Darwin's determination for the Dandelion, given in his \" Practical Physiology of Plants.\" The method employed by him consisted in cutting the inflorescence-stalk longitudinally and placing strips of the stalk in pure water. This resulted in curvature of the strips in an outward direction\u00e2&#x20AC;&#x201D;i.e., the cells occupying the inner face of the strip expanded more than those occupying the outer face, owing largely to the mechanical arrangement of the tissues in these regions. The curled strips were then placed in solutions of potassium nitrate of known strengths, and the solution in which the strip retained the same degree of curvature was taken as isotonic with the cell sap. This method gives very accurate determinations of the strength of the sap, but is only applicable in relatively few cases. A method involving observation of the plasmolysis of the cells can however be very generally applied. By this means a number of plants have been examined with regard to the strength of their cell sap.\nArticle Comparison of the effects of a localised supply of phosphate, nitrate, ammonium and potassium on the growth of the seminal root system, and the shoot, in barley M. C. Drew\nSummary New Phytologist (1975) 75: 479 - 490 doi: 10.1111/j.1469-8137.1975.tb01409.x\nBarley plants were grown for 21 days in sand culture, continuously irrigated with nutrient solution. The rooting depth was divided into three compartments, one above another, such that different zones of the root system could be supplied with very low or high concentrations of a single inorganic nutrient, all other nutrients being maintained at a high concentration. Exposure of parts of the main seminal roots (axes) to high concentrations of phosphate caused a localized promotion of the initiation and subsequent extension of both first and second order laterals, compared with zones receiving very low concentrations of phosphate. This resulted in considerable modification to root form, but with only a small depression in shoot growth, compared with control plants receiving an ample supply to all parts of the root system. The extension of seminal axes was little affected by the concentration of phosphate to which they were exposed. Similar responses to those described for phosphate occurred with variation in concentration of nitrate or ammonium, but with potassium a localized supply promoted the growth of laterals to approximately the same extent as controls throughout the entire root system. The experiments show that adequate external concentrations of nitrogen and phosphorus are required by any part of the root system for optimal growth of laterals, but not axes. Possible mechanisms which compensate shoot growth when nutrients are supplied to only part of the root system, and agronomic implications, are discussed.\nArticle The influence of light on stomatal density in the tomato\nA. P. Gay, R. G. Hurd\nSummary New Phytologist (1975) 75: 37 - 46 doi: 10.1111/j.1469-8137.1975.tb01368.x\nStomatal densities (stomatal number per unit leaf area) were determined on tomato plants grown at \u2018high\u2019 (100 W m\u22122 ) and \u2018low\u2019 (20 W m\u22122 ) light in a growth cabinet. The upper epidermis of a fully expanded leaf in low light had fewer than one stoma mm\u22122 , whilst that in high light had thirty stomata mm\u22122 . On the lower epidermis there were about eighty and 100 stomata mm\u22122 in low and high light respectively. Similar differences were observed on plants growing in natural light. Stomatal initiation is most active early in the development of the leaf and effects of light on initiation were greatest at this stage, being observable within 3 days of a change in light level. Since light influenced the rate and duration of all stages of leaf expansion, the final stomatal densities achieved under natural conditions varied with the light history of the leaf. Stomatal density reached a peak before the leaf had expanded to 10% of its final area. Stomatal initiation and stomatal density both decreased from then until leaf expansion ceased. Fully-expanded leaves of plants grown continuously in the same environment had similar stomatal densities irrespective of their position on the plant. A quantitative relationship is described between stomatal density and leaf area during the growth of a leaf.\nArticle A theory of plant geography\nR. D\u00e2&#x20AC;&#x2122;O. Good\nIntroduction New Phytologist (1931) 30: 149 doi: 10.1111/j.1469-8137.1931.tb07414.x\nIn the course of some years' work on the geographical distribution of the Angiosperms, I have paid particular attention to certain theoretical aspects of the subject. More especially have I endeavoured to discover the principles underlying the processes of distribution in order to use them as a basis for a working hypothesis capable of explaining the chief features of Angiosperm geography.\nUp to the present I have come to certain conclusions which, although doubtless incomplete, nevertheless appear to me sufficiently interesting and useful to warrant their publication. Briefly these results are as follows: first, the recognition that six general statements (set out below) are so incontrovertible that they may reasonably be regarded as basic principles: second, the fact that these principles satisfactorily form the framework of a general hypothesis of plant distribution provided that an additional theory, relating to their inter-relationships, is acceptable: third, the presentation of such a theory under the name of \"The Theory of Tolerance.\u00e2&#x20AC;?\nArticle The effect of wind on plant growth and soil moisture relations: a re-assessment\nA. W. Humphries, F. J. Roberts\nThe argument that wind and soil moisture stress induce similar anatomical changes in plant leaves, and that these changes enhance the ability of the plant to restrain water loss, is examined. It is shown that the data presented by Whitehead (1963a) can be explained satisfactorily in terms of induced changes in root distribution and leaf area, without invoking any specialized adaptations for the reduction of water loss.\nArticle Carbohydrate physiology of mycorrhizal roots of beech. III. Movement of sugars between host and fungus\nD. H. Lewis, J. L. Harley\nIn order to test the relevance of previous results of this series to conditions operative in the intact plant, a technique was devised to simulate translocation of sucrose to mycorrhizal roots and to determine its morphological and biochemical destinations by the use of [14C]sugar. It was shown that the fungus can absorb sugar from the host and that its chemical destination is essentially similar to that of exogenous sucrose, namely a synthesis of mannitol, trehalose and glycogen. In connection with the possibility of reciprocal flow from fungus to host, the ability of uninfected roots to utilize the soluble sugars of the fungus was tested. Whereas mycorrhizas readily absorb and metabolize mannitol and trehalose, uninfected roots have almost no ability to utilize mannitol and are restricted in their utilization of trehalose, throwing considerable doubt on the possibility of sugar absorption by host from fungus. The hypothesis is developed that the fungus absorbs carbohydrates from the host and transforms them into reserve substances peculiar to itself, so maintaining a concentration gradient with respect to the host carbohydrate. The mycorrhizal system has the added advantage to the fungus that its reserve sugars are not readily re-available to the host. As polyols are abundant in many angiosperm parasites, the Physiology of polyols in general is reviewed with the conclusion that the role postulated for this class of compound in mycorrhizas may be applicable to host-parasite relations in general.\nArticle Mechanisms of plant survival and mortality during drought: why do some plants survive while others succumb to drought?\nN. McDowell, W. T. Pockman, C. D. Allen, D. D. Breshers, N. Cobb, T. Kolb, J. Plaut, J. Sperry, A. West, D. G. Williams, E. A. Yepez\nSummary Author for correspondence: Nate McDowell Tel: +1 505 6652909 Fax: +1 505 6653866 Email: mcdowell@lanl.gov\nNew Phytologist (2008) 178: 719 - 739 doi: 10.1111/j.1469-8137.2008.02436.x\nKey words: climate, die-off, hydraulics, vegetation mortality, water relations\nSevere droughts have been associated with regional-scale forest mortality worldwide. Climate change is expected to exacerbate regional mortality events; however, prediction remains difficult because the physiological mechanisms underlying drought survival and mortality are poorly understood. We developed a hydraulically based theory considering carbon balance and insect resistance that allowed development and examination of hypotheses regarding survival and mortality. Multiple mechanisms may cause mortality during drought. A common mechanism for plants with isohydric regulation of water status results from avoidance of drought-induced hydraulic failure via stomatal closure, resulting in carbon starvation and a cascade of downstream effects such as reduced resistance to biotic agents. Mortality by hydraulic failure per se may occur for isohydric seedlings or trees near their maximum height. Although anisohydric plants are relatively drought-tolerant, they are predisposed to hydraulic failure because they operate with narrower hydraulic safety margins during drought. Elevated temperatures should exacerbate carbon starvation and hydraulic failure. Biotic agents may amplify and be amplified by drought-induced plant stress. Wet multidecadal climate oscillations may increase plant susceptibility to drought-induced mortality by stimulating shifts in hydraulic architecture, effectively predisposing plants to water stress. Climate warming and increased frequency of extreme events will probably cause increased regional mortality episodes. Isohydric and anisohydric water potential regulation may partition species between survival and mortality, and, as such, incorporating this hydraulic framework may be effective for modeling plant survival and mortality under future climate conditions.\nArticle Stomata and hydathodes in Campanula rotundifolia L., and their relation to environment\nM. W. Rea\nNew Phytologist (1921) 20: 56 - 72 doi: 10.1111/j.1469-8137.1921.tb05772.x\nMany authors have commented on the varying number of stomata observed either on the leaves of related plants, or on the leaves of plants belonging to widely differing families. Very little work so far has been done, by using the same species grown under different conditions, to demonstrate the possibility that the number of stomata per unit area may vary according to the leaf surface and the position of the leaf on the shoot. In this connection Professor R. H. Yapp found in Spiraea Ulmaria L. (= Ulmaria palustris Moench.) a range from about 300 to nearly 1300 stomata per sq. mm. on the under surface (there were practically no stomata on the upper surface) for the lower and upper leaves respectively of the same shoot (7, p. 827). He states: \"It may be that Spiraea Ulmaria is exceptional in the latter respect, but it would be worth while comparing the successive leaves of a number of other plants, for if the phenomenon is at all general, the numbers already published for a large number of species might need considerable revision.\"\nLetter Physiological mechanisms of drought-induced tree mortality are far from being resolved\nA. Sala, F. Piper, G. Hoch\nSummary Author for correspondence: Anna Sala Tel: +406 243 6009 Email: sala@mso.umt.edu\nKey words: carbon pools, carbon starvation, drought, hydraulic constraints, phloem transport, reserves, tree mortality\nThe recent worldwide increase of drought-induced tree mortality exacerbated by climate change (see review by Allen et al., 2009 and references therein) has triggered strong interest in revisiting the exact mechanisms leading to mortality (McDowell et al., 2008). In addition to biotic factors such as pathogens and insects, which amplify the negative effects of drought or are amplified by elevated temperatures and drought (Desprez-Loustau et al., 2006; Rouault et al., 2006), two physiological mechanisms have been advanced in the literature and recently formalized by McDowell et al. (2008) within a hydraulic framework: hydraulic failure and carbon (C) starvation. Hydraulic failure occurs when drought intensity is sufficient to push a plant past its threshold for irreversible desiccation. The C starvation hypothesis has been invoked in the literature for decades (Parker & Patton, 1975) and predicts that reduced C assimilation via photosynthesis as a result of drought-induced stomatal closure \u00e2&#x20AC;&#x201C; particularly in isohydric species that close stomata to maintain high (i.e. less negative) xylem water potentials (McDowell et al., 2008) \u00e2&#x20AC;&#x201C; leads to an imbalance between C availability and C loss as a result of metabolic demands (e.g. growth and maintenance). Over time, if drought persists, such negative C balance can lead to an exhaustion of C reserves and, ultimately, to C starvation and death.\nArticle The symptoms of calcium deficiency in plants\nE. W. Simon\nSummary New Phytologist (1978) 80: 1 - 15 doi: 10.1111/j.1469-8137.1978.tb02259.x\nAs the symptoms of calcium deficiency develop in plants, there is often a stage in which the tissues are water-soaked and one involving cell breakdown with loss of turgor (as in internal breakdown of apples). Eventually the tissue may become desiccated yielding a dry, more or less extensive area of necrosis. Two mechanisms are proposed. There is evidence that calcium deficiency renders membranes permeable which would account for a loss of turgor and permit cell fluids to invade intercellular spaces. An alternative situation may develop in soft, succulent fruits, the cells of which burst under hypotonic conditions in vitro. It is suggested that exogenous water may enter a fruit from the atmosphere or (in apple) through the phloem. Such exogenous water in the intercellular spaces of the fruit may cause cells to swell, so cracking the fruit or it may result in a bursting of the cells. A plea is made for further light microscope studies of the development of symptoms of calcium deficiency.\nArticle Stelar evolution in vascular plants\nB. F. Slade\nRecently Namboodiri and Beck (1968c) and Beck (1970) in proposing a new hypothesis of stelar evolution in the gymnosperms failed to mention its possible application to angiosperms. This paper, by showing the close similarity of the primary vasculature of gymnosperms with that of the \u00e2&#x20AC;&#x2DC;parastichous type\u00e2&#x20AC;&#x2122; (Philipson and Balfour, 1963) in dicotyledons, shows that the hypothesis applies equally to both groups. Brief reference is made to other instances of stelar structure where application of the leaf-gap theory (Jeffrey, 1902, 1917) has failed. Here Namboodiri and Beck's new concept, that parenchymatous areas may arise having no association with leaf gaps, is most helpful.\nArticle The \u2018xerophytic\u2019 character of the Gymnosperms. Is it an \u2018ecological\u2019 adaptation?\nM. C. Stopes\nNew Phytologist (1907) 6: 46 - 50 doi: 10.1111/j.1469-8137.1907.tb06042.x\nThat the living Coniferales, almost without exception, are xerophytic in their structure, is a statement of morphological and anatomical facts which are so well known as to require no illustration. Nevertheless, the distribution of the group at the present day, though wide, is in the main coincident with areas where the rainfall is plentiful, or at least sufficient to allow less protected plants to flourish. Frequently the marked protection of the gymnosperms seems out of place and superfluous, as it appears in the lives of many species of Abies, the large American forest trees, and in the various species commonly found growing in a mixed deciduous forest.\nArticle The problems of ecology\nEcology may now be considered almost a fashionable study, but there are not wanting botanists who tacitly distrust, even if they do not openly contemn, a good deal of the work which is done under its name. This hostile attitude is not always wholly to be wondered at, for the subject has its own difficulties and dangers, and these are sometimes rather distressingly patent in the papers of some of its votaries; on the other band the hostility alluded to is not seldom due to misapprehension, and it therefore appears useful to consider the subject from a general point of view in the hope of pointing out some of its dangers and of clearing up some of the misapprehension.\nArticle Xerophytic adaptations of bryophytes in relation to habitat\nIntroduction Part 1: New Phytologist (1914) 13: 149 - 169 doi: 10.1111/j.1469-8137.1914.tb05747.x\nNew Phytologist (1914) 13: 181 - 190 doi: 10.1111/j.1469-8137.1914.tb05749.x\nSome years ago, when examining the bryophytes of the woodlands of Somersetshire (22), I was desirous of obtaining information on the characters which enable some species to live in dry situations, whilst others could only exist when provided with a large amount of shade or moisture. My search for information of this nature was only partially successful, as I could find no book or papers definitely dealing with it, but only scattered references to the subject in the works of Kerner (11), Goebel (7), Campbell (3), Haberlandt (9), Dixon (6), Warnstorf (19.21), Cavers (4, 5), Braithwaite (2), and others. Most of the required information had therefore to be gained from first-hand evidence by the study of the plants in the field and laboratory, and this paper is largely the result of such work, carried on for several years. A recent paper by Grebe (8) on the methods by which mosses protect themselves against drought, and an earlier series of articles by Wheldon (25), in which the xerophy tic characters of some mosses were clearly shown and explained are of great value; these have been very useful to me in my later investigations, and extensively used in the arrangement of the matter for the present paper, which however deals with the liverworts as well as the mosses.\nArticle The effect of wind on plant growth and soil moisture relations: a reply to the re-assessment by Humphries and Roberts\nF. H. Whitehead\nHumphries and Roberts (1965) have put forward an interesting re-assessment of our papers on the effect of wind on plant growth and soil moisture relations given in the New Phytologist in 1962 and 1963. They believe that the data presented can be accounted for in terms of a restricted development of roots. The essence of this reassessment lies in the supposition that under experimental conditions of culture of plants at fractions of field capacity the soil was wetted in a restricted region only and that the remainder of the soil remained dry. Unfortunately, it was, perhaps, not made clear in the original papers that precautions were taken to avoid this situation. It seems that due to this omission they have made the assumption that the moisture content of the soil was maintained by surface addition of water. This was not the case since necessary amounts of water were added by means of a veterinary hypodermic syringe. The needle was plunged into the beakers in such a way that small amounts of water were added at different depths, etc., resulting in a much less uneven distribution than that produced by surface watering. It is not claimed that this led to a completely even distribution nor that the fractions of field capacity were maintained exactly in all parts of the soil. That it avoided any great reduction of the volume of soil available for root growth is clear from the fact that in all cases where plants were grown at less than field capacity there was proportionately less decrease in dry weight of root than that of shoot (see Whitehead, 1963a, Fig. 4).\nArticle Effect of light intensity during growth on leaf anatomy and subsequent light-saturated photosynthesis among contrasting Lolium genotypes D. Wilson, J. P. Cooper\nSummary New Phytologist (1969) 68: 1125 - 1135 doi: 10.1111/j.1469-8137.1969.tb06512.x\nThe effect of light intensity during leaf formation on subsequent light-saturated photosynthesis and its relation to mesophyll and stomatal characteristics, was examined among ten contrasting Lolium genotypes. Photosynthetic activity was recorded at three CO2 concentrations. At approximately 300 ppm CO2 and above, plants of the same mesophyll cell size grown in strong light (0.130 cal/cm2 /min) of radiation in the spectral region 400\u00e2&#x20AC;&#x201C;720 m\u00ce\u017a. (1800 ft-candles) had faster rates of photosynthesis than those grown in relatively weak light (0.021 or 0.056 cal/cm2 / min). At the lowest CO2 concentration there was no effect on photosynthesis of the light intensity at which the plants were grown. The effect of light intensity was not associated with any change in mesophyll structure, but plants grown in weaker light (0.056 cal/cm2 /min) had much smaller stomata than those grown in stronger light (0.130 cal/cm2 /min). A slight increase in stomatal frequency at the low compared with the high light intensity did not compensate for the reduced stomatal length in terms of total pore space. Differences in apparent photosynthesis in any one light intensity, and between plants from all light intensities at the lowest CO2 concentration, were usually correlated negatively with mesophyll cell size. Effects of the light intensity at which plants were grown on subsequent photosynthesis could be explained in terms of changes in stomatal size.\nVirtual Special Issue to mark the 200th Volume of New Phytologist\nTo mark the publication of the 200th volume of New Phytologist, Editor-in-Chief Alistair Hetherington has invited two of his predecessors, P...\nwblifesci",

        "raw_content": "James Ross / December 19, 2016\nExternal disturbances are powerful drivers of community and ecosystem reorganization over most of the Earth\u2019s terrestrial surface. As such, they cause losses of plant biomass, reset succession, modify stocks and fluxes of nutrients, and change trophic dynamics. Furthermore, most ecosystems are subjected to multiple disturbance agents, and these disturbances do not operate in isolation from one another. Despite this, most studies have focused on how communities and ecosystems respond to a single type of disturbance, and few have considered the consequences of interactive effects among disturbance agents (Harvey et al. 2014, Buma, 2015). Additionally, few studies have addressed how the effects of disturbances, and in particular the interactive effects among different disturbances, varies across contrasting communities or is determined by environmental context (Sankaran and McNaughton 1988).\nThis issue\u2019s Editor\u2019s Choice paper was based in Kruger National Park, in northeastern South Africa\nIn savanna ecosystems, the two most important disturbance agents are usually fire (as an abiotic agent) and herbivory (as a biotic agent). These agents operate not just by altering ecosystem processes, but also through governing the transition between grass- and tree-dominated vegetation. By the virtue of both agents consuming plant biomass, there are some distinct parallels through which they operate, to the extent that fire has been described as a \u2018global herbivore\u2019 (Bond and Keeley, 2005). But these agents also have important differences, because fire is driven by the nature of the fuel load and occurs intermittently, whereas herbivory is driven by foliar quality and quantity and can occur more continually. Therefore we could expect both similarities and differences in how these two disturbance agents alter ecosystems. This should, in turn, have potential consequences for the interactive effects among them.\nPellegrini et al. looked at elephants and fire as disturbance agents in savanna ecosystems\nThe Editor\u2019s Choice article for this issue of Journal of Ecology, \u2018Woody plant biomass and carbon exchange depend on elephant-fire interactions across a productivity gradient in African savanna\u2019 focuses on interactive effects of fire and large herbivores. The authors utilized a replicated field experiment set up in each of four sites of South Africa\u2019s Kruger National Park (KNP) that vary in productivity due to differences in precipitation and soil fertility. In each site, treatments consisted of three different fire regimes (none, annual and triennial) that have been maintained for up to 56 years. In KNP, culling of a megaherbivore, i.e., elephants, was performed until 1994 (37-40 years after the experiment started), after which their densities greatly increased. This \u2018natural experiment\u2019 enabled analysis of the impacts of periods with and without high elephant densities across contrasting fire regimes and among contrasting sites.\nKruger National Park is one of the largest game reserves in Africa.\nTheir study revealed that the two primary disturbance agents in KNP, fire and elephants, exerted contrasting effects. Fire removed comparable amounts of vegetation across the four sites despite large differences in productivity. In contrast, elephants removed a higher proportion of woody plant biomass in the more productive sites. Furthermore, there were interactive effects of fire and elephants because increased fire frequency had negative effects on woody plant biomass during the low-elephant but not the high-elephant periods. It also highlighted the importance of elephants in reversing increases in woody plant productivity in a manner that fire could not, thereby leading to the ecosystem switching from a carbon sink to a carbon source, and with this effect being greatest at the most productive site. In combination, these results point to the capacity of elephants to alter the impact of fire and to propel a transition from dense woodland to open savanna that is independent of site conditions.\nAll the \u2018Big Five\u2019 game animals are found at KNP, which has the most species of large mammals out of all the game reserves in Africa\nThis study should interest a large number of Journal of Ecology readers, not just because it is focused on a charismatic animal in an iconic ecosystem, but because it highlights one of the clearest examples yet of the long-term interactive effects between two major but contrasting disturbance agents. As such it provides compelling evidence that the understanding of the impacts of one of these disturbance agents is incomplete without explicit consideration of the other. It also highlights what can be achieved through combining a natural experiment with a formal (i.e., manipulative) experiment. While a handful of ecologists unfortunately remain resistant to natural experiments on the basis of alleged confounding factors, studies such as this highlight the power of combining both types of approaches within a single study (cf., Fukami and Wardle 2005), together with robust long-term data, to disentangle the role of interacting drivers of ecosystem processes in a manner that is otherwise difficult or impossible to achieve.\nPhoto credits: Adam Pellegrini\nDecember 19, 2016 in Editor's Choice.

        "raw_content": "Sawbill: A Search for Place\n(University of New Mexico Press, 2018)\nIn Sawbill, Jennifer Case watches her family suddenly exchange their rooted existence for a series of relocations that take them across the United States. In response, Case struggles to \u201clive in place\u201d without a geographical home, a struggle that leads her to search for grounding in the now-dismantled fishing resort her grandparents ran in northeastern Minnesota. By chronicling her migratory adulthood alongside the similarly unpredictable history of Sawbill Lodge, this memoir offers a resonant meditation on home, family, environment, and the human desire for place in the inherently mobile twenty-first century.\n\u201cIn her pilgrimage to learn more about the Sawbill Resort once owned by her grandparents and the Boundary Waters of childhood vacations, Jennifer Case embarks on a personal journey, rediscovering the vast beauty of an almost pristine landscape as well as a complicated inner landscape as she surveys the boundaries of family bonds, love of the land, and our inexplicable, inextricable connections to place.\u201d\n\u2014Jill McCabe Johnson, Artsmith, author of Borderlines\n\u201cCase regularly challenges her own perceptions, attitudes, and convictions and acknowledges the slippery nature of nostalgic history [\u2026] Yet, her intricate blending of family chronicles, personal experience, Minnesota\u2019s geography, and philosophies of place effectively navigates the spectrum between reality and imagination, memory and truth, wishes and acquiescence to create a stimulating read for anyone who has asked how the past influences the present.\u201d\nAvailable through the University of New Mexico Press, Barnes & Noble, or Amazon.",

        "raw_content": "MORE PROJECTS > Lady with a Unicorn\nLady with a Unicorn, is a photographic self-portrait in the style of Raphael's little known painting of similar name, created almost exactly 500 years later.\nAfter seeing the painting in the Borghese during a trip to Italy, the artist was captivated by the unusual, tiny unicorn, and after some research discovered that the painting had gone through a series of fascinating metamorphoses.\nIn 1934-36, the painting\u2014formerly considered to be a portrait of St. Catherine by Perugino\u2014was restored, with a heavily repainted Saint Catherine's Wheel was removed to reveal the tiny unicorn. (A gruesome aside: Catherine's Wheels, also known as Breaking Wheels, were a medieval torture device used for capital punishment from antiquity until worryingly recent times\u2014as recently as the 19th century in Germany. Victims were lashed to a large wooden wheel and beaten with a cudgel, the spaces between the many spokes allowing the bones to break.) The story of St. Catherine has her martyred on the wheel that bore her name, hence its presence in the re-painted image, which remixed Raphael's intended work.\nThe unicorn revealed by this process, also helped to confirm the painting as authored by Raphael. Traditionally a symbol of purity or virginity, the unicorn's diminutive appearance is as much a mystery as the identity of the woman. And beneath the unicorn lies yet another layer revealed by X-ray; a dog was our lady's original companion.\nIt is speculated that the portrait may have been commissioned of a bride-to-be holding a favorite pet. She is depicted to be seen, as an asset to a wealthy family, dressed in fine silks and jewels, with her eyes modestly averted. It's is speculated that the desired symbolism of the portrait changed, perhaps after the wedding was called off. The dog changed to a unicorn, signaling the wealthy family's valuable young daughter was still a virgin. (Patriarchy, yuck.)\nUsing only clothing from her own closet, the artist restaged the image, with yet a further removal. Unicorns, a childhood obsession have vanished in this adult world, and the lady's arms are empty. But unlike the martyred Catherine, or the painted bride, this woman's eyes confront the camera, claiming authorship of herself in this magicless world\u2014but hinting at the power of the imagination to conceive and reconceive of self.\n\"Lady with a Unicorn,\" also known as \"Portrait of a Lady with a Unicorn\" or \"Young Woman with Unicorn\" by Raphael",

        "raw_content": "by megan | May 17, 2013 | Jesus' Birth | 0 comments\n\u201cIt\u2019s the most wonderful time of the year,\u201d says one popular Christmas song sung by 1960s singer Andy Williams. The song says it\u2019s \u201cthe most wonderful time\u201d because of the \u201choliday greetings,\u201d \u201cparties for hosting,\u201d \u201ccaroling out in the snow,\u201d and \u201cloved ones near.\u201d The Christmas season is one of the most magical times of the year, especially in predominantly Christian countries. There is a spirit of giving and happiness, despite whatever hardships have happened during the year. But the real reason that it\u2019s the most wonderful time is because it celebrates the birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ.\nBorn in the Meridian of Time\nThis year, calendars around the world proudly proclaim the year as 2013. 2013 years since the birth of Jesus Christ, to be precise. This system of reckoning time has been in use for thousands of years, and places the birth of Jesus Christ at the center of time. More recently, the abbreviations BC and AD have been replaced with BCE and CE (Before the Common Era and Common Era). However, the concept remains the same. The years 2013 CE and 2013 AD mean the same thing: 2013 years since Christ was born. His birth is the central event in time, and in all of history.\nGordon B. Hinckley, the 15th president of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (sometimes referred to as the \u201cMormon\u201d Church), stated in 1999: \u201cIt is a wonderful acknowledgement of His [Jesus Christ\u2019s] place in history that the calendar now in use throughout most the world place His birth as the meridian of time . . . every time that anyone uses a date, he [or she] knowingly or unknowingly acknowledges the coming to earth of the Son of God\u201d (At the Summit of the Ages, October 1999 General Conference). Everything that happened before and everything that happened after is in relation to the birth of Jesus Christ.\nMembers of The Church of Jesus Christ (Mormons or Latter-day Saints), believe, like many other Christian churches, that Jesus is the light of the world. In John chapter 8, Jesus told His disciples, \u201cI am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life\u201d (John 8:12). Throughout the Bible, many verses reaffirm this truth.\nThe Book of Mormon: Another Testament of Jesus Christ is an ancient book of scripture similar to the Bible. In The Book of Mormon, a prophet named Samuel prophesied of Jesus\u2019 birth, much like Old Testament prophets prophesied of Jesus\u2019 birth. Because the Book of Mormon people were on the American continent, thousands of miles away from Jerusalem, Samuel gave the people specific signs that would tell them Jesus Christ had been born. He said that when Jesus was born, there would be \u201cgreat lights in heaven, insomuch that in the night before he cometh there shall be no darkness\u201d (Helaman 14:3). Samuel also spoke of \u201ca new star\u201d in the heavens (Helaman 14:5), similar to the new star the wise men in the New Testament followed to Jesus.\nThe new lights in the heavens and the absence of darkness are symbolic of Jesus Christ as the light of the world. He brought the light of truth to the world and overcame the darkness of sin and death through His Atonement. Jesus Christ is the light that shines through the darkness of the world, showing us the right way to go and how to overcome the darkness of temptation and sin.\nChristmas is made even more wonderful when we remember that Jesus Christ\u2019s birth is the reason we celebrate Christmas. He is the Light of the world, and when we celebrate His birth we celebrate His great gift to us of overcoming death and sin. He is the Son of God, the Redeemer of the world, and the Light of the world whose birth we commemorate and celebrate always, but especially at the most wonderful time of the year.\nMegan is a graduate of BYU-Idaho and recently married member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. She is a writer and avid reader, and loves music, hiking, and her family.",

        "raw_content": "THROUGHOUT the ongoing fight between Apple and the FBI over custom access to an iPhone used by one of the two terrorists who killed 14 people in San Bernardino, the government has framed the argument as a simple trade-off: You must surrender a little privacy if you want more security. Our government needs to keep us safe. To do that it should be able to spy on us. Without warrants, probable cause or restraint. Information could be used to prevent deaths, child predation, or drugs. The government is not going after anyone\u2019s personal information, the content of their personal information. But they do want to get the bad guys, they don't want them to use social media, or communications devices invented right here to plot against us.\nFBI Director James Comey said forcing Apple to unlock the iPhone of the San Bernardino shooter is no big deal. There shouldn't be any encryption the government can't crack, especially when it comes to crime and public safety. The FBI Director insisted vital decisions involving safety from terrorists shouldn\u2019t be left in the hands of \u201ccorporations that sell stuff for a living.\u201d You cannot put a price on the security of our nation.\nON THE OTHER HAND, The United States government has demanded Apple take an unprecedented step threatening the security of its customers. iPhones store an incredible amount of personal information, from private conversations to photos, music, notes, calendars, contacts, financial information and health data, even where someone has been and where they are going. All that information needs to be protected from hackers and criminals who want to steal it. The information can be misused by the government itself. Customers expect Apple and other technology companies to do everything in their power to protect personal information, and at Apple Inc. they are deeply committed to safeguarding personal data. Compromising the security of our personal information can ultimately put our personal safety at risk. That is why encryption has become so important to all of us.\nTHE CHAIRMAN, who has pointlessly changed his password on his iPhone in vain, has called a debate to settle the question:\nRESOLVED: Encryption is for Criminals.\nThe Debate will be held on March 16, 2016, at the University Club, 420 Summit Avenue, in Saint Paul. The Chancellor will preside over drinks beginning at seven o\u2019clock p.m. The debate will begin at half past seven. There is no dress code, however gentlemen who wish to speak must wear a tie; ladies are encourage to adhere to a similar sartorial standard. For those gentlemen arriving sans tie yet wishing to discourse on the resolution, the Purveyor of Ties will keep on hand several remarkable selections. Questions regarding debate caucus procedures of about the John Adams Society itself may be directed to the Chairman at (651) 269-1890 or the Secretary at (651) 494-9008.",

Moskalenko, Oleksandr V. Didenko\nA methodology of training pilots\u2019 listening skills by means of a computer tool is highlighted in the article. Various computer exercises are used to enhance the learners\u2019 level of English as well as improve their listening skills. English is one of the crucial factors influencing flight safety; pilot\u2019s ability to listen, hear, interpret and react to controller\u2019s information in English is of paramount importance during radio communication. It is emphasized that the development of computer software and appearance of new computerized tools predetermine the search for new methods of teaching Aviation English to future pilots and air traffic controllers. One of the ways how to enhance the level of professional training is implementation of ICT in the teaching and learning process. Computer technologies and technical means of language training can simulate the flight situations that a pilot may encounter during his/her professional activity. In the article the authors demonstrate one of the useful methods \u2013 application of a computer tool for training listening skills in Aviation English. The computer tool is aimed at training pilots\u2019 listening skills. It can be used to prepare students for achieving ICAO Operational Level (Level 4) or higher according to the ICAO Language Proficiency Requirements. It consists of six tasks based on general aviation English and phraseology of radio communication. Based on the proposed methodology the experiment with Aviation graduate students was carried out, which was based on the implementation of the computer tool into the course \u00abPhraseology of radio communication\u00bb. Listening skills\u2019 assessment was conducted according to three criteria: cognitive (knowledge), operational (skills), psychological (abilities) and their descriptors. According to the level of listening skills three levels \u2013 low, medium and high were differentiated. The results of the experimental study indicate that there have been positive changes in the distribution of students\u2019 levels of listening skills in the phraseology of radio communication in English with the introduction of the computer tool: the number of students with high- and medium-level of listening skills increased whereas that of low-level listening skills decreased.\ncomputer tool; ICAO; Aviation English; pilot; listening skills; phraseology of radio communication\nLanguage Testing Criteria for Global Harmonization: ICAO Circular 318-An / 180.

        "raw_content": "Tonight was a bad night.\nI have been keeping fish for about 14 years now. It all started with a free goldfish that I won at a college orientation event. A bowl became a 10-gallon tank, and then a 29-gallon tank when I did my research and learned about the actual needs of a goldfish. A couple of years later, my goldfish, Hyacinth, died.\nI know, you\u2019re rolling your eyes and saying \u201cIt\u2019s just a fish.\u201d But, he wasn\u2019t just a fish. I had spent countless hours researching and caring for this fish. I had done everything I could to make sure his habitat was perfect and that he was healthy, so his death was a blow.\nOf course, eventually, I recovered and decided to try my hand at tropical fish keeping. Within a year, I had a beautiful live-planted tropical aquarium running with a beta fish, some schooling fish, and my first pleco (after an algae incident.) He was a bristlenose pleco, only an inch long, and the ugliest thing I had ever seen in my life.\nMy 29-gallon tank\nBristlenose plecos are smaller than the 2-foot-long common plecos people are familiar with. They only grow to somewhere between 6-8 inches long and eat algae and driftwood. You can see the driftwood in the photo above, though my pleco is hiding in it, as he often did during the day.\nsource: http://www.pethelpful.com\nMale bristlenose plecos live up to their names and grow horrifying-looking bristles on their face as they reach maturity. Females do not grow bristles, however.\nTheir average life-span is about 12 years, so they can live for quite a while. Though I was not particularly attached to my own pleco at first, after he began to develop his bristles (and I got over how terrifying they looked) I actually really grew to love him the best. He quickly became my favorite fish, and was the only fish in the tank, aside from my beta fish, who was given a name. I named him Davey Jones, and called him Jonesy for short. Even my mother, who hated my fish tank, loved Jonesy and would sneak him treats of cucumber or zucchini when I wasn\u2019t home.\nWhen I moved out of my parents\u2019 house 5 years ago, I upgraded from a 29-gallon tank to a 55-gallon tank. Jonesy came with me, along with a few other fish and all my plants and driftwood. As of today, I have had the same community going (Jonesy being the only original fish) for the past 11 or 12 years.\nTonight, after getting home from a long shitty day, (I spent 4 hours sitting around in a car dealership and left with no car. :|) I went into the living room to feed the fish and found Jonesy dead on the floor of the tank.\nOf course, I was upset. My heart broke for my uniquely ugly pet fish whom I\u2019d had for my entire adult life (I bought him when I was twenty! Please don\u2019t do math right now).\nAfter recovering from the initial shock of finding him, and realizing that he likely died of old age and nothing I did, I carefully scooped him up, wrapped his body and disposed of him. I kept my composure. I was sad, but he was an old fish and I took great care of him.\nWhen I went back to the tank to feed the rest of my fish, a thought that has been nagging at the back of my head for about the last year-and-a-half or two years came back. I ought to sell my set up. I had considered it before buying the house\u2013it has been getting hard to keep up with maintenance as my life has gotten more and more hectic, and I have slowly begun to lose my love of fishkeeping.\nAdding on top of that my workload, and the fact that I am hoping to have a baby by this time next year (I know I haven\u2019t written anything about that yet\u2013it\u2019s coming!), I realized it was probably best for the fish and myself if I sold the whole set-up to someone who had the time and the energy needed to take care of a tank this size. The one thing that had been holding me back for the last year was Jonesy and how attached I was to him.\nI took to Facebook and posted in a fishkeeping group about my loss and explained that I was considering selling the whole set up for reasons a, b, c and x.\nAt first, people were kind and offered condolences and advice on selling my set up. Some complimented me on the beauty of my tank, others suggested bringing the last few fish to a fish store and selling off the set up piece-by-piece.\nThen, someone commented saying that I was a disgusting person for giving up my aquarium in exchange for a \u201chuman brat.\u201d This someone was some rando 20-year-old kid, so I really didn\u2019t care about his opinion and told him so. Then, it escalated. Women with children began to shame me and rub in my face that they had children AND fish tanks. Men commented saying how many kids they had and pointed out that THEY never gave up THEIR fish.\nI was annoyed and hurt. I didn\u2019t owe them an explanation. I reported the comments to group admins and tagged admins but after over an hour, none of them had done anything. The comments continued to escalate. A few people defended me, but they got worse and worse. I was called a \u201cshit person\u201d a \u201cwhore\u201d and told to kill myself.\nNow, as a woman, I get comments like this every day on Facebook. MANY women do. Usually, I report the idiot and move on. Tonight, it hurt though. Tonight, I was grieving for the loss of a beloved pet, and looking for advice, and I was told instead that I would be a shitty mother and that I should just kill myself.\nWhy do people think it\u2019s okay to say things like that to other people? The anonymity of the internet, even if you are using a Facebook account with your real name and photo, makes people into monsters. No administrator in the group did anything to stop this, and in the end, I deleted the post and left the group like a coward.\nNow, I\u2019m exhausted from a bad day, upset over the death of my favorite fish, and feeling hollow inside because I ran away from the onslaught of insults being thrown at me instead of facing them and standing my ground. I feel like a failure, even though logically I know that I am not and I know that what these random people on the internet have to say doesn\u2019t matter.\nStill, it hurts. Especially when I am feeling like crap already because my pet died\u2013it hurts. I didn\u2019t deserve to be treated like that. No one does.\nIt\u2019s one thing to get into a flame-war with someone on Facebook. Many of us are guilty of it\u2013I am guilty of it. But I have never told someone to go kill themselves. I have never stooped to bullying someone for no reason other than the fact that I could, and they could do nothing about it.\nBullying is nothing new\u2013and neither is internet bullying. This month alone, Star Wars star Kelly Marie Tran deleted social media accounts because people were bullying and harassing her so much that she felt she had no other choice. Stranger Things star Millie Bobby Brown deactivated her Twitter after so-called fans made a slew of homophobic memes (during PRIDE MONTH) using her photos. The world is fucked up.\nAnyway, I\u2019m sorry that this post is a downer, but I felt like I had to get it off my chest somehow. I\u2019ve been crying for the past two hours and I\u2019m not even sure why. I\u2019ll be fine in the morning, I\u2019m sure\u2013but tonight my heart is aching and my ego has been struck a solid blow.\nStop Bullying Twitter\nTagged bullying, cyberbullying, death, fish, grief, pet, pet loss, sadness\nPrevious postPre Order Has Begun! \u2013 Dacia M Arnold\nNext postExclusive Cover Reveal: The Meaning of Birds by Jaye Robin Brown!",

I'll take it. J.K. is writing the screenplay. I think that's pretty cool.\nI, instantly, fell in love with HP. The books, the movies, everything. What about you? Do you miss HP? Are you excited for Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them?\nhttp://harrypotter.wikia.com/wiki/Fantastic_Beasts_and_Where_to_Find_Them_%28film_trilogy%29\nFantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them is an upcoming trilogy of films based on Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, one of the companion books to J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter series.[5] Rowling will make her screen writing debut with this film.[6] David Heyman, who produced the Harry Potter films, will be returning as producer for Fantastic Beasts.[2]\nJ.K. Rowling has said that the film will start in New York, around 1920, seventy years before the Harry Potter series, and will feature Newton Scamander as a main character. It is unclear whether the rest of the film will be set in New York.[5] Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them tells us that Scamander had been travelling the world in research of magical creatures since 1918, culminating with the publication of his masterpiece in 1927.\nClick the link above for more...\n8 Famous Authors On The First Book They Ever Loved\nI absolutely LOVED books as a kid. Still do. But, as a kid I was a voracious reader. I don't remember the very first book I read, but I can tell you I was addicted to Sweet Valley High for a while.\nI think I have more favorites now, though.\nWhat does it mean to love a book? Should it be relatable? Beautiful? Must you share common interests? Is it not just as exciting to curl up with one you don't fully understand?\nThe one I'm most passionate about, which is to say the one I'm currently reading, is Graham Greene's The End of the Affair.\nIt was love at first sentence, a line the designer of the reprint edition wisely chose to place on the back cover: \"A story has no beginning or end: arbitrarily one chooses a moment of experience from which to look ahead.\" Greene and I have been inseparable ever since. In fact, you might say we've been spending too much time together, that I've been neglecting my previous interests -- those books penned by sharp or wounded women. But, as Greene sagely notes, this type of love is prone to running its course quickly.\nHabit and admiration, on the other hand, are more likely to last. Which is why, after being read The Billy Goats Gruff every single night for weeks, my three-year-old self declared it my favorite book. I couldn't read yet, but I had the thing memorized, a fact I was happy to demonstrate to everyone I met, troll voice and all. There's not much of a moral to The Billy Goats Gruff, a peculiar fairy tale about pudgy farm animals. But it instilled in me a great reverence for silliness, a quality I still very much value in a story. In that sense, you could say I've never forgotten the first book I ever loved.\nRead the rest here: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/8-famous-authors-on-the-first-book-they-ever-loved_55c360fde4b0d9b743daf1ce?utm_hp_ref=childrens-books&kvcommref=mostpopular\nBookLover Memes\nFor those of you that love books as much as I do....\nLOL, I have done this more than I'd like to admit.\nThis one I find funny. I have an ereader and love it dearly, but I also love hard cover and soft cover books. I don't think I'll ever get tried of \"regular\" books. What about you? Digital or Traditional.",

        "title": "The Unemployment Rate Falls to a 16-Year Low: May 29 \u2013 June 2 \u2013 What We Learned About the U.S. Economy Last Week",
        "raw_content": "The Unemployment Rate Falls to a 16-Year Low: May 29 \u2013 June 2\nThe last time the unemployment rate was this low, it was 2001. But the pace of job creation during May was relatively modest. Here are the 5 things we learned from U.S. economic data released during the week ending June 2.\nThe unemployment rate fell to a 16-year low, but employers slowed the pace of hiring. The Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that nonfarm employers added a seasonally adjusted 138,000 workers to their payrolls during the month, down from April\u2019s job gain of 174,000 jobs but well above the 50,000 added workers during March. If the job openings and turnover data released in recent months are any indication, some of the weakness in this report may be due to employers being unable to find qualified candidates for their openings. Whatever the case, the private sector saw payrolls expand by 147,000 workers, with the gain split between 131,000 new jobs in the service sector and 16,000 new workers in the service sector. Industries most responsible for the month\u2019s job creation were professional/business services (+38,000), health care/social assistance (+32,300), leisure/hospitality (+31,000), construction (+11,000), and financial activities (+11,000). The average workweek was at 34.4 hours, unchanged from both April 2017 and May 2016. Average weekly earnings grew by $1.38 during the month to $901.97 (+2.5 percent vs. May 2016).\nBased on a separate survey of households, the unemployment rate slipped 1/10th of a percentage point to 4.3 percent, its lowest point since May 2001. This was partially the result of 429,000 people leaving the labor force during the month to 159.784 million. The labor force participation rate declined by 2/10ths of a percentage point to 62.7 percent. This places the labor force participation rate closer to its multi-decade low, but that is explained partially by older Americans leaving the labor force due to retirement. Even though the typical length of unemployment edged up by 2/10ths of a week to 10.4 weeks, the measure has remained within a tight range between 10.0 and 10.4 weeks since last summer. The same survey also found that the count of \u201cinvoluntary\u201d part-time workers contracted by 53,000 to 5.219 million (May 2016: 6.409 million). Finally, the broadest definition of labor underutilization (the U-6 series) fell to its lowest reading since November 2007 with a 2/10ths decline to 8.4 percent.\nConsumers were spending money during April. \u201cReal\u201d personal consumption expenditures (PCE) grew by 0.2 percent during the month, which had followed a 0.5 percent gain during March and a 0.1 decline in February. Per the Bureau of Economic Analysis, real spending on goods jumped 0.7 percent during April, split between a 1.1 percent surge in spending on durable goods and a 0.5 percent increase in spending of nondurables. Services spending was virtually unchanged for the month. Over the past year, real PCE has grown a moderate 2.6 percent, with spending on goods gaining 3.6 percent and spending services increasing 2.1 percent. Without adjusting for price variations, nominal PCE rose 0.4 percent, its biggest single-month increase since last December. Supporting the gain in spending was a 0.4 percent increase in both personal and disposable income. After adjusting for inflation, real disposable income increased 0.2 percent during April and has grown 1.9 percent over the past year. Meanwhile, the savings rate held steady at +5.3 percent for a third consecutive month.\nThe trade deficit widened to a four-month high during April. The Census Bureau and the Bureau of Economic Analysis estimates exports dropped by $0.5 billion during the month to a seasonally adjusted $191.0 billion (+5.0 percent vs. April 2016) while imports grew by $1.9 billion to $238.6 billion (+8.3 percent vs. April 2016). As a result, the seasonally adjusted trade deficit expanded by $2.3 billion to -$47.6 billion, which was 23.9 percent larger than the deficit of a year earlier. The goods deficit grew by $2.3 billion to $68.4 billion (+16.1 percent vs. April 2016) while the goods surplus held steady at +$20.8 billion (+1.4 percent vs. April 2016). The former increased as imported goods grew by $1.8 billion (thanks to greater imports of cell phones, art/collectibles, and capital goods) and exported goods slipped by $0.4 billion (thanks to smaller exports for consumer goods and automotive vehicles). The U.S. had its largest goods deficits with China (-$32.1 billion), the European Union (-$13.2 billion), Mexico (-$6.4 billion), and Germany (-$5.5 billion).\nPurchasing managers indicate that manufacturing held steady during May. The Institute for Supply Management\u2019s Purchasing Managers Index (PMI) inched up 1/10th of a point to a seasonally adjusted reading of 54.9. This was the ninth straight month in which the measure was above a reading of 50.0, indicative of an expanding manufacturing sector. Three of five PMI components improved during the month: new orders (up 2.0 points to 59.5), employment (up 1.5 points to 53.5), and inventories (up a half point to 51.5). Falling were measures of supplier deliveries (down 2.0 points to 53.1) and production (off 1.5 points to 57.1). Fifteen of 18 tracked manufacturing industries expanded during May, led by nonmetallic mineral products, furniture, and plastics/rubber products. The press release noted the purchasing managers\u2019 comments generally reflected \u201cstable to growing business conditions.\u201d\nSurvey results suggest a slight cooling of consumer sentiment. The Conference Board\u2019s Consumer Confident Index declined for a second straight month as it lost 1.5 points to a seasonally adjusted reading of 117.9 (1985=100). The measure has lost 7.7 points since March (when it had hit a 16-plus year high) but nevertheless remained at strong levels. The current conditions index added edged up by 4/10ths of a point to 140.7 while the expectations measure shed 2.8 points to 102.6. In all, 29.4 percent of survey respondents characterized current economic conditions as \u201cgood\u201d (vs. 30.8 percent that said the same in April) while 13.7 percent stated that they were \u201cbad\u201d (unchanged from the percentage indicating the same in April). Slightly less hopeful was the short-term economic outlook: 21.3 percent of respondents expected business conditions would improve (April 2017: 25.1 percent) while 10.1 percent were expecting conditions to worsen (April 2017: 10.4 percent).

        "raw_content": "Tight Inventories, Rising Materials Prices Weigh on Housing: June 18 \u2013 22\nTight inventories continued to hold back the housing market during the spring. Here are the five things we learned from U.S. economic data released during the week ending June 22.\nExisting home sales stagnated during May. Sales of previously owned homes slipped 0.4 percent during the month to a seasonally adjusted annualized rate (SAAR) of 5.430 million homes. This left the National Association of Realtors\u2019 home sales measure down 3.0 percent from May 2017 levels. Sales grew during the month on in the Northeast (+4.6 percent) while activity fell in three of four regions versus the previous year (Sales held steady versus May 2017 levels in the South). While still very tight, the number of homes on the market grew 2.8 percent during the month to 1.85 million units. This was nevertheless 6.1 percent below the year-ago level of inventories and the equivalent to a 4.1 month supply. As a result, the median sales price for existing homes has grown 4.9 percent over the past year to $264,800. The press release notes that \u201c[i]ncredibly low supply continues to be the primary impediment to more sales.\u201d\nActivity in the Midwest drives a rise in housing starts. The Census Bureau reports that housing starts grew 5.0 percent during May to a seasonally adjusted annualized rate (SAAR) of 1.350 million homes. This was 20.3 percent ahead of the year-ago pace of starts. Single-family home starts grew 3.9 percent during the month to an annualized 936,000 (+18.3 percent versus May 2017) while multifamily units starts jumped 11.3 percent to an annualized 404,000 units (+27.4 percent versus May 2017). Only one region\u2014the Midwest\u2014enjoyed a month-to-month increase in starts. Looking toward the future, the number of issued housing permits of 1.364 million (SAAR), which was off 4.6 percent for the month but still 8.0 percent ahead of the year-ago rate. The annualized rate of housing completions grew 1.9 percent during May to 1.291 million homes. This was up 10.4 percent from the same month a year earlier.\nHigher raw material prices weigh on homebuilder sentiment. The National Association of Home Builders\u2019 Housing Market Index (HMI) lost two points in June to a seasonally adjusted reading of 68. Even with the modest drop, the HMI has been above a reading of 50\u2014where a higher percentage of homebuilders see the housing market as \u201cgood\u201d than view it as \u201cpoor\u201d\u2014for 48 straight months. During the month, the HMI improved in the Northeast and West but lost ground in the Midwest and South. Indicies for both current (75) and expected sales (76) each lost a point, as did the measure tracking prospective buyers traffic (50). The press release stressed that builders remained optimistic, but also they were \u201cincreasingly concerned that tariffs placed on Canadian lumber and other imported products are hurting housing affordability.\u201d\nEconomic indicators suggest continued economic growth for the remainder of the year. The Conference Board\u2019s Leading Economic Index added 2/10ths of a point in May to a seasonally adjusted reading of 109.5 (2016=100). The measure has grown 6.1 percent over the past year. Seven of the LEI\u2019s ten components made positive contributions during the month, led by new manufacturing orders, the interest rate spread, and consumers\u2019 expectations for business conditions. The coincident index also increased by 2/10ths of a point during May with the 103.7 reading representing a 2.2 percent gain from a year earlier. Three of four coincident index components made positive contributions: nonfarm payrolls, personal income net of transfer payments, and manufacturing & trade sales. The lagging index added a half point to a reading of 105.2 (+2.7 percent versus May 2017). The press release noted that while economic growth would remain \u201csolid,\u201d May\u2019s smaller increase suggests that \u201ceconomic activity is not likely to accelerate.\u201d\nLayoff activity remained slow in mid-June. There were a seasonally adjusted 218,000 first-time claims made for unemployment insurance benefits during the week ending June 16, down 3,000 from the prior week and 26,000 for the same week a year earlier. The Department of Labor\u2019s jobless claims data can be volatile week-to-week, so analysts frequently look at four-week moving data to spots trends. But the story is much the same\u2014the moving average was at 221,000, which was 10.0 percent below that of a year earlier. Further, the four-week moving average has been below 300,000 for an impressive 172 consecutive weeks.\nEconomics, Macroeconomics, This week's economic data, Weekly Economic Update Business Sentiment, Home Sales, Housing Starts, Jobless Claims Leave a comment\nThe Fed Moves, Likely to Repeat Twice More in 2018: June 11 \u2013 15\nThe Fed raises its target for short-term interest rates as inflation moves ever so closer to targeted levels. Here are the five things we learned from U.S. economic data released during the week ending June 15.\nThe Fed boosts short-term interest rates and appears ready to do so twice more again this year. The policy statement released following this past week\u2019s meeting of the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) characterized economic activity as \u201crising at a solid rate\u201d and that the labor market \u201ccontinued to strengthen\u201d with core inflation moving closer to the Fed\u2019s two-percent target rate. The statement also noted that risks to future economic activity as being \u201droughly balanced.\u201d As a result, the committee voted unanimously to boost the fed funds rate by 25-basis points to a range between 1.75 and 2.00 percent. This was the FOMC\u2019s second rate hike of 2018 but keeps the short-term interest target in a range the committee views as \u201caccommodative.\u201d\nAccompanying the policy statement were the updated economic projections of Federal Reserve Board members and Federal Reserve Bank presidents, which highlight a more optimistic view of near-term conditions. For example, the median forecast for 2018 economic growth increased by 1/10th of a percentage point to +2.8 percent and the expected unemployed rate dropped by 2/10ths of a percentage point to 3.6 percent. The forecasters also see a greater firming of inflation with the core PCE deflator (the Fed\u2019s preferred measure of inflation) at +2.1 percent, up from the prior forecast of +1.9 percent. As a result, the median forecast for the fed funds target rate suggests two more quarter-point rate hikes this year (up from a single additional rate bump previously anticipated). Further, the median forecast points to three quarter-point hikes in 2019 and one rate hike in 2020.\nInflation continued to build steadily in May. The Consumer Price Index (CPI) grew 0.2 percent on a seasonally adjusted basis for the third time in four months, per the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Energy prices jumped 0.9 percent, as gasoline prices gained 1.7 percent. Food CPI held steady during the month. Net of energy and food, core CPI increased 0.2 percent and has grown 2.2 percent over the past year. (The 12-month comparable for the headline index was +2.8 percent). Jumping during the month were prices for medical commodities (+1.3 percent), new vehicles (+0.3 percent), and shelter (+0.3 percent) while prices declined during the month for used cars/trucks (-0.9 percent) and medical care services (-0.1 percent).\nMeanwhile, the Producer Price Index (PPI) for final demand soared 0.5 percent (seasonally adjusted), its fastest rate of growth since January. The core measure, which nets out energy, food, and trade services, grew at a more modest 0.1 percent for a second consecutive month. Wholesale prices for final demand goods swelled 1.0 percent, led by the 4.6 percent surge in wholesale energy prices (PPI for gasoline: +9.8 percent). Final demand food PPI eked out a 0.1 percent increase. Net of energy and food, core final demand goods PPI gained 0.3 percent. PPI for final demand services increased 0.3 percent for the fourth time in five months, which included the impact of a 0.9 percent advance in prices for trade services (reflecting larger retailer and wholesaler margins). Over the past year, final demand PPI has jumped 3.1 percent during which the core wholesale price measure (net of energy, food, and trade services) has risen 2.6 percent.\nRetail sales surged in May. The Census Bureau estimates retail and food sales were at a seasonally adjusted $502.0 billion, up 0.8 percent from April and 5.9 percent from a year earlier. Motor vehicle sales jumped 0.5 percent while higher prices at the pump resulted in a 2.0 percent rise in gas station sales. Net of sales at auto dealers/parts stores and gas stations, core retail sales rose 0.8 percent to $443.1 billion (+5.1 percent versus April 2017). May was a good month for building material/garden supplies stores (+2.4 percent), department stores (+1.5 percent), apparel retailers (+1.3 percent), restaurants/bars (+1.3 percent), and health/personal care retailers (+0.5 percent). Sales slowed during the month at furniture stores (-2.4 percent) and sporting goods/hobby retailers (-1.1 percent).\nManufacturing decelerated in May. Per the Federal Reserve\u2019s Industrial Production report, manufacturing output slumped 0.7 percent on a seasonally adjusted basis, leaving it 1.7 percent ahead of its year-ago pace. The report links much of the decline to a \u201cmajor fire at a parts supplier\u201d that had disrupted truck assemblies. Net of vehicle production, manufacturing slowed by a more modest 0.2 percent. Output of durables fell 1.2 percent (motor vehicles production plummeted 6.5 percent) while that of nondurable slipped 0.1 percent. Overall industrial production decreased 0.1 percent during the month but was up 3.5 percent over the past 12 months. Mining output grew for the fourth straight month (+1.8 percent versus April 2018 and +12.6 percent versus May 2017), led by increased oil and gas extraction. Higher demand for electricity led to a 1.0 percent increase in output at utilities.\nSmall business owners\u2019 optimism blossomed during the spring. The National Federation of Independent Business\u2019 Index of Small Business Optimism jumped by 3.0 points to a seasonally adjusted reading of 107.8. Not only was this a post-recession high for the sentiment measure, it also was its second-best reading in the index\u2019s second-best reading ever (a 45-year history). Eight of the index\u2019s ten components improved from their April readings, led by expected real sales (+10 points), expectations for the economy (+7 points), on whether it is a good time to expand (+7 points), and earning trends (+4 points). While noting difficult in their ability to find qualified workers to hire, the press release stated employers \u201cnow have more resources to commit to attracting candidates.\u201d\n\u2013 Import Prices (May 2018, All Imports, not seasonally adjusted): +0.6% vs. April 2018, +4.3% vs. May 2017. Nonfuel imports: +0.2% vs. April 2018, +1.9% vs. May 2017.\n\u2013 Export Prices (May 2018, All Exports, not seasonally adjusted): +0.6% vs. April 2018, +4.9% vs. April 2018, Nonagricultural Exports: +0.5% vs. April 2018, +4.9% vs. May 2017.\n\u2013 University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment (June 2018-preliminary, Index of Consumer Sentiment, seasonally adjusted): 99.3 (vs. May 2018: 98.0, June 2017: 95.0).\n\u2013 Business Inventories (April 2018, Manufacturing and Trade Inventories, seasonally adjusted): $1.930 trillion (+0.3% vs. March 2018, +4.4% vs. April 2017).\n\u2013 Monthly Budget Statement (May 2018, U.S. Budget Surplus/Deficit): -$146.8 billion (vs. May 2017: -$88.4 billion). Deficit over first 8 months of FY 2019: -$532.2 billion (vs. +23.0% vs. first 8 months of FY 2018).\nEconomics, Macroeconomics, This week's economic data, Weekly Economic Update Business Sentiment, Consumer Prices, Federal Reserve, Industrial Production, Producer Prices, Retail Sales Leave a comment",

Expenses for health care rose at a 5.6% annual rate in the fourth quarter, the Bureau of Economic Analysis said last week.

It means chieftain or king. It is a word used in various forms by the different tribes and nations that from time immemorial have inhabited Central Asia, and has been applied to a great number of potentates and rulers that have from time to time arisen among them. Genghis Khan was the greatest of these princes. He was, in fact, one of the most renowned conquerors whose exploits history records.\nAs in all other cases occurring in the series of histories to which this work belongs, where the events narrated took place at such a period or in such a part of the world that positively reliable and authentic information in respect to them can now no longer be obtained, the author is not responsible for the actual truth of the narrative which he offers, but only for the honesty and fidelity with which he has compiled it from the best sources of information now within reach.\nCHAPTER I. PASTORAL LIFE IN ASIA.\nFour different modes of life enumerated.-Northern and southern climes.-Animal food in arctic regions.-Tropical regions.-Appetite changes with climate.-First steps toward civilization.-Interior of Asia.-Pastoral habits of the people.-Picture of pastoral life.-Large families accumulated.-Rise of patriarchal governments.-Origin of the towns.-Great chieftains.-Genghis Khan.\nThere are four several methods by which the various communities into which the human race is divided obtain their subsistence from the productions of the earth, each of which leads to its own peculiar system of social organization, distinct in its leading characteristics from those of all the rest. Each tends to its own peculiar form of government, gives rise to its own manners and customs, and forms, in a word, a distinctive and characteristic type of life.\nThese methods are the following:\n1. By hunting wild animals in a state of nature.\n2. By rearing tame animals in pasturages.\n3. By gathering fruits and vegetables which grow\nspontaneously in a state of nature.\n4. By rearing fruits and grains and other vegetables by\nartificial tillage in cultivated ground.\nBy the two former methods man subsists on animal food. By the two latter on vegetable food.\nAs we go north, from the temperate regions toward the poles, man is found to subsist more and more on animal food. This seems to be the intention of Providence. In the arctic regions scarcely any vegetables grow that are fit for human food, but animals whose flesh is nutritious and adapted to the use of man are abundant.\nAs we go south, from temperate regions toward the equator, man is found to subsist more and more on vegetable food. This, too, seems to be the intention of nature. Within the tropics scarcely any animals live that are fit for human food; while fruits, roots, and other vegetable productions which are nutritious and adapted to the use of man are abundant.\nIn accordance with this difference in the productions of the different regions of the earth, there seems to be a difference in the constitutions of the races of men formed to inhabit them. The tribes that inhabit Greenland and Kamtschatka can not preserve their accustomed health and vigor on any other than animal food. If put upon a diet of vegetables they soon begin to pine away. The reverse is true of the vegetable-eaters of the tropics. They preserve their health and strength well on a diet of rice, or bread-fruit, or bananas, and would undoubtedly be made sick by being fed on the flesh of walruses, seals, and white bears.\nIn the temperate regions the productions of the above-mentioned extremes are mingled. Here many animals whose flesh is fit for human food live and thrive, and here grows, too, a vast variety of nutritious fruits, and roots, and seeds. The physical constitution of the various races of men that inhabit these regions is modified accordingly. In the temperate climes men can live on vegetable food, or on animal food, or on both. The constitution differs, too, in different individuals, and it changes at different periods of the year. Some persons require more of animal, and others more of vegetable food, to preserve their bodily and mental powers in the best condition, and each one observes a change in himself in passing from winter to summer. In the summer the desire for a diet of fruits and vegetables seems to come northward with the sun, and in the winter the appetite for flesh comes southward from the arctic regions with the cold.\nWhen we consider the different conditions in which the different regions of the earth are placed in respect to their capacity of production for animal and vegetable food, we shall see that this adjustment of the constitution of man, both to the differences of climate and to the changes of the seasons, is a very wise and beneficent arrangement of Divine Providence. To confine man absolutely either to animal or vegetable food would be to depopulate a large part of the earth.\nIt results from these general facts in respect to the distribution of the supplies of animal and vegetable food for man in different latitudes that, in all northern climes in our hemisphere, men living in a savage state must be hunters, while those that live near the equator must depend for their subsistence on fruits and roots growing wild. When, moreover, any tribe or race of men in either of these localities take the first steps toward civilization, they begin, in the one case, by taming animals, and rearing them in flocks and herds; and, in the other case, by saving the seeds of food-producing plants, and cultivating them by artificial tillage in inclosed and private fields. This last is the condition of all the half-civilized tribes of the tropical regions of the earth, whereas the former prevails in all the northern temperate and arctic regions, as far to the northward as domesticated animals can live.\nFrom time immemorial, the whole interior of the continent of Asia has been inhabited by tribes and nations that have taken this one step in the advance toward civilization, but have gone no farther. They live, not, like the Indians in North America, by hunting wild beasts, but by rearing and pasturing flocks and herds of animals that they have tamed. These animals feed, of course, on grass and herbage; and, as grass and herbage can only grow on open ground, the forests have gradually disappeared, and the country has for ages consisted of great grassy plains, or of smooth hill-sides covered with verdure. Over these plains, or along the river valleys, wander the different tribes of which these pastoral nations are composed, living in tents, or in frail huts almost equally movable, and driving their flocks and herds before them from one pasture-ground to another, according as the condition of the grass, or that of the springs and streams of water, may require.\nWe obtain a pretty distinct idea of the nature of this pastoral life, and of the manners and customs, and the domestic constitution to which it gives rise, in the accounts given us in the Old Testament of Abraham and Lot, and of their wanderings with their flocks and herds over the country lying between the Euphrates and the Mediterranean Sea. They lived in tents, in order that they might remove their habitations the more easily from place to place in following their flocks and herds to different pasture-grounds. Their wealth consisted almost wholly in these flocks and herds, the land being almost every where common. Sometimes, when two parties traveling together came to a fertile and well-watered district, their herdsmen and followers were disposed to contend for the privilege of feeding their flocks upon it, and the contention would often lead to a quarrel and combat, if it had not been settled by an amicable agreement on the part of the chieftains.\n[Illustration: ENCAMPMENT OF A PATRIARCH.]\nThe father of a family was the legislator and ruler of it, and his sons, with their wives, and his son's sons, remained with him, sometimes for many years, sharing his means of subsistence, submitting to his authority, and going with him from place to place, with all his flocks and herds. They employed, too, so many herdsmen, and other servants and followers, as to form, in many cases, quite an extended community, and sometimes, in case of hostilities with any other wandering tribe, a single patriarch could send forth from his own domestic circle a force of several hundred armed men. Such a company as this, when moving across the country on its way from one region of pasturage to another, appeared like an immense caravan on its march, and when settled at an encampment the tents formed quite a little town.",

        "title": "Treating Endometriosis |",
        "raw_content": "by LAIVF - 04.23.2014 | Blog, Endometriosis\nThere are many treatments for endometriosis and the right one depends on the particular case, associated symptoms and desire for pregnancy. Consult your obstetrician-gynecologist or a fertility specialist, if you have endometriosis or have symptoms suspicious for endometriosis.\nThe treatment can be observation, medical or surgical depending on many variables and individual circumstances. There is no one best treatment because each approach has its own risks, benefits and success rates.\nTreatments for pain include pain medications, hormone treatment, exercise, meditation and relaxation techniques, acupuncture and sometimes surgery. Pain medications and hormone treatments are usually a good place to start, while surgery is often the last resort when all other treatments have been ineffective. Exercise and relaxation techniques are recommended for all women with pelvic pain and certainly for those with known or suspected endometriosis.\nThe most common pain medications are acetaminophen (Tylenol) or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS) such as ibuprofen (Motrin, Advil, etc.) or naproxen (Aleve, Naprosyn, etc.). These drugs often give some pain relief and may be taken along with hormonal treatment as combination therapy. Pain that requires higher dose pain medications or opioids (such as narcotics), is a strong indication that hormone treatment or surgery is required as soon as possible.\nEndometrial tissue, both the normal tissue in the womb and the abnormal tissue of endometriosis, needs estrogen to grow. Hormone treatments reduce the amount of estrogen that reaches any patches of endometriosis you may have. These patches are then starved of estrogen and may gradually shrink.\nAmong the most common treatments are hormonal birth control pills, patch and the vaginal ring. A progestin-containing intrauterine device (IUD) can also be very effective in treating pelvic pain.\nThe process of producing estrogen starts in the brain, where gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) is made. GnRH causes the pituitary gland to produce other hormones called gonadotropins, which are released into the bloodstream and eventually reach the ovaries, where estrogen is then produced and released into the bloodstream.\nSeveral different medications exist that block different parts of this process. But the end result of all of them is to reduce the amount of estrogen that is made or block its action on endometrial tissue. The variety of medications insures that if there are problems with side effects from one, there\u2019s another that can be tried.\nPain often returns when hormonal treatments are stopped so it may be necessary to continue the treatment for an extended period of time or consider alternative options such as surgery.\nIf neither pain medications nor hormonal treatments are effective in reducing pain, surgery may be required. The goal of surgery is to remove endometriotic lesions, remove any endometriosis cysts (endometriomas), remove scar tissue and restore normal anatomy. The goal is to remove patches of endometriosis without harming the healthy tissue around it. This will provide a long-term cure for pain in up to 80% of all women.\nLaparoscopy is the preferred way to remove endometriosis and recurrence rates of pain are approximately 10-20% per year. The need to do a second surgery is 20-40% in 2-5 years following the initial surgery.\nMore extensive surgery is frowned on, though it may be needed in a small percentage of the time. This refers to removal of the uterus in someone who completed their family and can be effective in relieving pain up to 90% of the time. The key to avoid recurrence is also o remove any endometriotic lesions at the time of hysterectomy (removal of uterus). If someone desires pregnancy and is in her reproductive years laparoscopic treatment of endometriosis is always preferred over hysterectomy.\nTreatments of Endometriosis for Infertility\nSurgery and in vitro fertilization (IVF) are the two methods used to overcome infertility problems caused by endometriosis.\nSurgery has been shown to improve the odds of conception for women with mild to severe endometriosis (30%). Once again, the key is to remove only patches of abnormal endometrial tissue without harming the healthy tissue that surrounds it.\nIn moderate or severe cases, surgical treatment significantly improves the chances of pregnancy (40%). In severe cases, attention should be paid to minimizing any damage to the ovaries and preserving as much ovarian tissue as possible.\nIf the surgery is unsuccessful at restoring fertility, IVF is probably the best bet. Performing a second surgery is generally frowned upon unless symptoms of pain prevent undergoing IVF. There is new information that IVF treatment may even be better than surgery if the goal of the treatment is achieving pregnancy rather than treating pain.\nMedical treatment of endometriosis does not improve outcome unless suppressive therapy is used in preparation for IVF. Leuprolide (Lupron) has been used to suppress ovarian activity, endometriotic lesions and inflammation prior to IVF treatment and has been shown to improve pregnancy rates. The drawback is the waiting time which is sometimes six months before starting IVF and some suggest waiting is not good when severe endometriosis is present and ovarian reserve is declining.\nIVF Treatment for Endometriosis related Infertility\nFertilizing the eggs in the laboratory environment versus the pelvic cavity (natural conception) is probably one of the most important benefits of IVF treatment for endometriosis. The laboratory environment may be a better option because endometriosis causes inflammation in the pelvis and can create a hostile environment for the sperm, eggs and the developing embryo. During the IVF treatment, multiple embryos can be created and the best one can be selected for transfer into the uterus and remaining embryos can be frozen for later use.\nIf endometriosis is more advanced, the pregnancy rates are lower which is due to low egg reserve. Therefore, if endometriosis is suspected or diagnosed already and pregnancy is desired, it would be important to understand the importance of time as egg reserve may be declining rapidly\nIf the diagnosis can be made early and treatment started soon, the overall success rates of IVF for women with endometriosis can be favorable and as high as 40% per IVF cycle or attempt including all age groups.\nConsult with a fertility specialist if you have the symptoms or the diagnosis of endometriosis already and considering having a baby in the future because you may be at risk for infertility or declining egg reserve.",

        "title": "RIP Allen Toussaint, who helped define the sound of New Orleans - Las Vegas Weekly",
        "raw_content": "RIP Allen Toussaint, who helped define the sound of New Orleans\nOn Tuesday, Allen Toussaint\u2014composer, producer, performer, New Orleans institution and American icon\u2014died from a heart attack after finishing a show in Madrid. He was 77.\nObituaries hail him as \u201cinfluential\u201d and \u201clegendary,\u201d but even those words don\u2019t really cut it. This is the guy who wrote Ernie K-Doe\u2019s \u201cMother-in-Law,\u201d Lee Dorsey\u2019s \u201cWorking in a Coal Mine\u201d and \u201cGet Out My Life Woman,\u201d and handfuls of other \u201960s evergreens that still teach musicians how to play. His \u201970s productions\u2014Dr. John\u2019s \u201cRight Place, Wrong Time,\u201d Labelle\u2019s \u201cLady Marmalade,\u201d every classic cut from The Meters\u2014are fundamental funk. The Rolling Stones, Dylan and The Who covered him. Paul McCartney, Paul Simon and The Band worked with him. Led Zeppelin once tried to sound like him (pretty badly on \u201cRoyal Orleans\u201d). Hip-hop itself was built with Toussaint beats.\nThe man\u2019s legacy isn\u2019t merely influential. It\u2019s elemental, essential, necessary.\nGrowing up in New Orleans in the \u201970s, I can remember hearing Glen Campbell\u2019s recording of Toussaint\u2019s \u201cSouthern Nights\u201d on the radio. My parents told me it was a New Orleans song, written by a guy who didn\u2019t live all that far from us. It seemed weird that the glitzy superstar who sang \u201cRhinestone Cowboy\u201d on TV was somehow connected to my hometown. When you\u2019re a kid in New Orleans, it\u2019s easy to think your world is ordinary, that the whole planet celebrates Mardi Gras and eats crawfish \u00e9touff\u00e9e for leftovers and knows how to clap on the backbeat. Allen Toussaint made me realize New Orleans was anything but ordinary. It was a destination for anyone in search of something unique.\nIt\u2019s why Toussaint didn\u2019t really tour until later in his life. How could he go anywhere when all everybody wanted was to come to him, his studio, his home? In his new memoir, Elvis Costello recalls recording a cover of Yoko Ono\u2019s \u201cWalking on Thin Ice\u201d at Toussaint\u2019s Sea-Saint Studios in 1983. Once basic tracks were completed, Toussaint asked Costello if he\u2019d help with the broccoli. They hopped into a gold Rolls Royce with a \u201cPiano\u201d license plate, picked up a steaming shrimp feast from a local kitchen and headed back to the studio. \u201cThis was New Orleans,\u201d Costello writes. \u201cWe weren\u2019t just making a record. We\u2019d been invited for supper.\u201d\nIt was Hurricane Katrina that reluctantly pushed Toussaint out into the world. He settled in New York City shortly after, making television appearances and playing local clubs. \u201cKatrina came along and made us try other things,\u201d he said. \u201cIt brought about some new collaborations that were very healthy for me. I even began doing live performances on a regular basis, which was unusual for me, but quite rewarding.\u201d How wonderful that he left us in the midst of a rebirth, finally doing what most musicians do: touring the world.\nI saw Toussaint perform at the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival earlier this year. In fact, I\u2019m pretty sure he played all the Jazz Fests I\u2019ve ever attended. Native New Orleans folks admittedly get a bit complacent when it comes to their local heroes. Oh, there\u2019s Irma Thomas leading the crowd in a second line, again. There\u2019s Aaron Neville singing that darn \u201cAve Maria\u201d one more time. Toussaint played the same set I\u2019d always heard him play. All I really remember from that afternoon was how hot it was. And how regal he looked in his sequined blazer. I wish I\u2019d paid better attention.",

        "raw_content": "Africans who vigilantly refused to be captured into enslavement\nThe Kru languages belong to the Niger\u2013Congo language family and are spoken by the Kru people. The Kru people are found mainly in southeastern Liberia and southwestern Cote d\u2019Ivoire (Ivory Coast). The Kru tribe is one of the many ethnic groups in Liberia, comprising about 7 percent of the population. The Kru are known as stevedores and fishermen throughout west Africa and have established colonies in most ports from Dakar, Senegal, to Douala, Cameroon. They also migrated to Sierra Leone in search of work as dockworkers and fishermen. Kru economy is based on fishing and the production of rice and cassava.\nThe kru are made of 24 subgroups with dialectal and cultural differences. Their political organization was not centralized, each subgroup resided in independent towns under its own government. However, since 1920 the Liberian government administration became more centralized causing some of these traditional offices to either disappeared or changed function. By the late 20th century, there were more kru outside tribal territory than within, the largest group being in Monrovia; this fact remains today.\nThe Kru are known as the African tribe who vigilantly refused to be captured into enslavement. They were view as less valuable during the Transatlantic slave trafficking because they would rather fight viciously or take their own lives than be captured by Europeans. In 1856 when part of Liberia was still known as the independent Republic of Maryland, the Kru along with the Grebo resisted Maryland settlers' efforts to control their trade. The Kru are strong people who refuse to be control by others and will fight for what rightfully belongs to them.\nFamous Kru include George Weah (former soccer star), Samuel Morris or Kaboo (Christian Evangelist) and President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf (mixed of Kru, Gola, and German background).\nhttps://blackthen.com/kru-people-an-african-tribe-that-refused-to-be-captured-into-enslavement/\nhttps://www.britannica.com/topic/Kru\nhttp://blackgirllonghair.com/2015/08/kru-people-the-african-tribe-that-vigilantly-refused-to-be-captured-into-slavery/",

        "raw_content": "What to Know About the Danger of Energy Drinks\nJuly 3, 2014 LifestyleLifeWave Inc\nAmericans really love their caffeine. In fact, 80 percent of U.S. adults consume the stimulant on a daily basis, which makes it easy to forget that it\u2019s also a psychoactive drug.\nKathleen Miller is a senior research scientist at the University at Buffalo\u2019s Research Institute on Addictions. \u201cGet high enough levels \u2013 say 500 milligrams of caffeine, that\u2019s the equivalent of five cups of coffee \u2013 and you run into what\u2019s called caffeine toxicity,\u201d says Miller. \u201cAt high enough levels \u2013 and this is fairly unusual \u2013 caffeine is toxic enough that, for some people, it can cause seizures, mania, hallucinations, even strokes.\u201d\nCaffeinated energy drinks like Red Bull, Monster and Rock Star are now a primary concern among public health advocates. According to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration\u2019s Dawn Report, energy drink-related emergency department visits have nearly doubled between 2007 and 2011.1\nMost of us understand how a cup of coffee will affect us, but energy drinks are still relatively new and largely misunderstood. These neon-colored drinks target a younger demographic, promising to \u201cgive you wings\u201d or even promoting extreme sports on their websites. This helps explain why these products may seem suitable for augmenting physical fitness. They are not. The diuretic effect of these drinks can deplete the body of water, leading to dehydration.\nIt doesn\u2019t help that canned energy drinks are void of any health warnings. In addition to caffeine, many of them contain plant and herbal extracts, so they can legally label themselves as dietary supplements rather than food. This means they are not regulated or evaluated by the FDA.\nLifeWave\u2019s Theta Fuel drink supplement* is an ideal alternative to the potentially harmful energy drinks on the market. It contains absolutely no caffeine, and uses beneficial nutrients such as niacin to contribute to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue.\n*For more information on Theta Fuel:\nClick here in the U.S.\nClick here in the EU.\n1Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration\u2019s Dawn Report, 2014\n\u2190 Member Recognition\tAnniversary Milestone: LifeWave Receives Global Attention in 2004 \u2192",

        "raw_content": "Chapter 877: I Am a Hero\n\"That is only expected, I am different from the man who I once was. I was one of the three people who joined this adventure. Other than the two of you, no one can say they have braved this journey,\" said Sam smugly.\n\"Indeed, you're not wrong. You have done a good job, and contributed a lot,\" Xinghe agreed.\nSam said expectantly, \"Do you think the United Nations will award me some kind of medal? Or even a post or some money?\"\n\"What do you think?\" Xinghe turned to ask Mubai.\nMubai said with a wicked smile, \"I only remember someone saying he would not ask for anything other than to be a part of the adventure before we left Earth.\"\nSam was speechless. Did he have to say such a snide comment at a time like that\nHowever, Sam continued to convince himself, \"I should be awarded something, after all, I am a hero.\"\nSpeaking of the word hero, Sam could feel his blood pumping. Like every little boy, his greatest childhood wish was to be a hero who saved the world, and he'd done just that!\n\"I will pass up the reward!\" Sam suddenly stood up to announce, \"What is a reward when compared to the fact that I have managed to fulfill my dream? How many people in the world have had the opportunity to do that? Who would have thought my dream of becoming a hero would be a reality? I knew I was special, you see, I am an impressive character.\"\nXinghe and Mubai looked at each other with humor in their eyes. They did not make fun of Sam because his contribution was worth respecting, and he did indeed achieve his dream. Not only him, many people had contributed a lot to resolve this crisis facing Earth. In other words, it was due to many people's sacrifices and effort that this crisis was able to be resolved.\nTherefore, Xinghe was not conceited enough to think she had saved the world. She merely represented the forces that wished for world peace\nFurthermore, she and Mubai were not interested in rewards like fame or money.\nGeorge soon arrived with his men. Ee Chen, Ali, and their friends also tagged along. The general atmosphere was celebratory when they saw that Xinghe's group was safe and sound.\nWhen they saw Xinghe's group, tears welled up in their eyes, like it was a reunion after a long time. They had only been apart for less than ten days, but it felt like decades.\n\"Xinghe, you guys are wonderful, I am so proud of you!\" Ali said excitedly.\nBefore Xinghe could say anything, Sam lifted his chin slightly and gloated, \"Now you finally realize how wonderful your big brother is!\"\nAli replied snidely, \"I was talking to Xinghe, and not you.\"\n\"Po-tay-to, po-tah-to, but do not worry, I can feel your admiration toward me just fine,\" the thick-skinned Sam said. Even though people were making jokes at his expense, no one dismissed him because he was worthy of all the praise they lavished on him.\nGeorge led his men to check up on the fleet of spaceships, and he also went to greet Shi Jian and his men who had come from the moon. Then he said to Xinghe respectfully, \"Miss Xia, the cars are all ready, we can depart any moment now.\"\nXinghe enquired, \"Have you found the rest of the spaceships?\"\n\"Don't worry, they have all been accounted for. There are people who were assigned to intercept them.\"\nXinghe nodded. \"Good, then we shall leave now.\"\nJust like that, Xinghe's group got into the arranged cars and left the scene.",

        "raw_content": "Title: A Princess in Theory (Reluctant Royals, #1)\nFrom acclaimed author Alyssa Cole comes the tale of a city Cinderella and her Prince Charming in disguise . . .\nI\u2019m so annoyed at myself for waiting so long to finish this book!!! This year I have had really bad book ADD. I\u2019ll start a book and then get distracted by another book. I started A Princess in Theory in January and I just finished it- in October\u2026 I suck!\nI loved this story so much! This is the first book I\u2019ve read by Cole and I\u2019m addicted! I had just started this book when I went out and bought everything she had written before. Her writing is just so smart and wonderful!\nWhat truly got to me about this book was Ledi calling Thabiso on his behavior. The troupe of stalking is addressed multiple times and is shown, you know, to be creepy, like it is in real life. I loved that it was pointed out and talked about. All the romance troupes that are a little, shall we say problematic, are completely called out! LOVE IT!!!\nWhat I really enjoyed about Thabiso was the fact that he started off as an entitled prince but learned how to be an actual human being just by seeing Ledi struggle. She challenged him in ways he had never been challenged before. His turn around was so heartbreakingly sweet!\nHowever, Ledi was the star of the show for me. Having Ledi be a smart independent woman was my favorite part of this book. Mostly because it wasn\u2019t talked about constantly- it was shown through how she acted and carried herself. Personally, I am not a STEM person at all- math and science are Greek to me but I loved that part of her character. Her battle, not only with being on her own, but with sexism in the work place was something that really endeared her to me. These things happen every day and are usually ignored or swept under the rug. They way Ledi is able to learn to fight for herself makes her a female lead that is more than just a character. Her struggle with everyday challenges plus her struggle with life and her past in general made her this perfectly flawed woman who everyone can relate to in some fashion and also admire. She is probably one of my favorite female characters I have ever read.\nI loved that the ending wasn\u2019t a cookie cutter ending. It had a different way about it that I completely fell for. Ledi and Thabiso took their two completely different worlds and combined them together. I really enjoyed that they were figuring their relationship out first and getting to enjoy each other.\nCole is able to bring her characters to life in a way that makes you, as the reader, feel like they are real people. Cole\u2019s writing is so realistic and wonderful, I\u2019m so annoyed with myself for reading it so slowly. I have so many passages marked in my book I doubt I will able to loan it out to anyone else to read\u2026 I just couldn\u2019t help myself.\nThis book was funny, sexy, clever, and real! Don\u2019t be like me and wait to read it. Read it now! Like right now! Cole has cemented her place on my auto-buy list for life. I\u2019ve already started the next book in this series A Duke By Default and I am of course loving it! I can tell you right now that this series will be a favorite of mine for many years to come. I already can\u2019t wait for the third book! I won\u2019t be making the mistake again of reading this series slowly. And neither should you!\nAlso, did you see that cover!?!?!?! The dresses on covers of this series are so eye-catchingly beautiful. LOVE IT!!!!\u2764\ufe0f\u2764\ufe0f\u2764\ufe0f",

Because of its sedating side effects, it is also used as a mild sleeping aid. In intravenous forms, diphenhydramine is used in the treatment of severe allergic reactions and anaphylaxis. Diphenhydramine belongs to the ethanolamine class of antihistamines (with clemastine and dimenhydrinate) and in 1946 became the first antihistamine approved for use in the United States. It is still widely used today and is available in multiple generic forms as tablets, capsules, liquid oral and intravenous solutions, creams and syrups, many of which are available without prescription. A common brand name is Benadryl. Diphenhydramine is often combined with other analgesics or sympathomimetic agents for combined relief of symptoms of allergic rhinitis and the common cold. The recommended adult oral dose ranges from 25 to 50 mg three or four times daily. Common side effects include sedation, impairment of motor function, confusion, dizziness, blurred vision, dry mouth and throat, palpitations, tachycardia, abdominal distress, constipation and headache. Antihistamines can worsen urinary retention and glaucoma.\nDespite widespread use over many decades, diphenhydramine has not been linked to liver test abnormalities or to clinically apparent liver injury.

        "raw_content": "After following our ancestors footsteps across Europe, we decided to continue on their journey in the spirit of the Westward Movement. We priced the trip across the USA by plane, train, and RV. One of the most valuable things we learned during the nearly 30,000 miles we drove through Europe was how much we learned through overland travel.\nWe will never forget the geography of Europe because the bumps and turns and tolls were an intimate part of our adventure. Tales of Slovenian tunnels, the view of the Dolomites driving over the Austrian-Italian border, or the frightening curves of the Amalfi Coast, grace our dinner table nightly. We decided we wanted to understand the USA with the same rigor. We bought an old station wagon and planned our route.\nWe are following the footsteps of pilgrims and pioneers on a two-lane trek from Provincetown, Cape Cod to Oregon\u2019s rugged coast. US-20 is known as America\u2019s longest road spanning 12 states and 3,365 miles of transcontinental terrain. Our reasons for Westward Movement are a bit different from the pioneers of yesteryear. Manifest Destiny was a belief that Americans were destined by God to govern the North American continent. Since that time, many historians have written about the issues inherent in that plan, such as the eradication of native populations and the prejudice that was behind much of the movement.\nGiven all of its flaws, the spirit of Manifest Destiny became synonymous with the \u201cpioneering spirit\u201d which is what we are celebrating on this leg of our undertaking. The pioneering spirit is full of hope and adventure. A clear vision that is full of flexibility, coupled with an appreciation of the journey, are also important aspects of the pioneering spirit. We have it easy compared to the wagon trains but we hope to garner their spirit when we need it as we bump along US-20 with their wooden wheel tracks in sight.\nOne of the things we now know is that it is more about the freedom we feel than it is about the movement west, north, east or south. The Westward Movement shaped the USA, and we know this All-American Road Trip will further shape our understanding of ourselves, our family, and who we are as citizens of this county, not because we are traveling but because we are facing the unknown.\nWe also know with certainty that there is never a happy ending to an unhappy journey so we will set aside our maps and brochures and packing lists and enjoy this very special day on the National Seashore in Cape Cod. As we gaze over the Atlantic Ocean at the horizon that barely masks the Western most point of Europe in Portugal, where we stood almost two years ago today, a swell of readiness overcomes me and I know it is time to go.\nToday, you can be deliberate in your awareness of the geography that surrounds you \u2026 CLICK HERE to subscribe to the Daily Livit and receive reminders for living more deliberately.\nFiled Under: Appreciation, USA Tagged With: History Of The Americas, Manifest Destiny, Native American History, Westward Movement",

In between attending job and recruiter interviews, I\u2019ve had the best macaroons of my life at Ladur\u00e9e (somewhere I\u2019ve dreamt of going for a long time!) and the best pasta at Jamie Oliver\u2019s Italian restaurant. I visited St Paul\u2019s Cathedral where we admired and awed at the intricate glass murals, hand painted ceilings and oak carved alters, descended into the crypts and climbed over 500 steps to the top of the duomo. I was outside the Lindo Wing at St Mary\u2019s hospital when Kate and Will presented Princess Charlotte to the world amongst the crowds of well wishers. I was offered three jobs in one day and had a tricky 24 hours trying to choose the best one. And yesterday I explored the food stalls in the Streets of Spain market along the South Bank, eating the best crepe of my life (error: that\u2019s not Spanish food!!).\nBut tomorrow I start my new job. Back to the \u2018real world\u2019 with a 9-5 job (although here it\u2019s more like 9.30-7pm!). So today I\u2019m off on an adventure. I (temporarily) leave Maidenhead feeling like a kid going to camp, with my backpack full of everything I\u2019ll need for the next few days. I\u2019m off to stay in a very oldy-worldy backpackers in a part of London I haven\u2019t yet visited, sharing a dorm room with 10 other females. I\u2019m not sure if I\u2019ll like it, how I\u2019ll feel about the shared bathroom facilities or if I\u2019ll get a good nights sleep in a room that has no curfew, but I\u2019m in London, and where better to go on such an adventure. I\u2019ll admit, the night before starting my new job probably isn\u2019t the best idea, but with the cost and duration of travel from Maidenhead being more than the cost of staying in a hostel, I thought I have nothing to lose.\nI\u2019ll admit, I had a bit of a breakdown this morning when faced (yet again) with the challenge of trying to find a flat. What can look amazing in a photo can be damp, moldy and in a very dodgy area. What sounds like a cool area can in fact be run down, deserted and definitely not safe for a young girl to be walking home along at night. And what is in a perfect location, clean room and close to the tube can be occupied with the weirdest, most unsociable people who are just living there for convenience.\nI thought I wouldn\u2019t be so picky about where I would live. I\u2019m aware that it won\u2019t be as nice as home, that I\u2019ll be living the \u2018flat life\u2019 in a somewhat small and older flat, but it\u2019s harder than I thought to find somewhere. I\u2019m not after the perfect place but I\u2019m aware that where I\u2019m living could make or break my experiences here, so I want to wait for the right place. But waiting can take a while, especially when most places advertise weeks in advance. I want the right balance between nice people, clean place and good location close to a tube. It doesn\u2019t help when I found a place where I thought I\u2019d be really happy only to have my following emails ignored and not be contacted again by the girls, even to say it was a no!\nIn addition, most flats want viewings in the evenings and when living two hours away this is really limited. So I\u2019ve moved into the central city temporarily to help with viewing places in the evenings and getting to work easier. Like I said, cost of the hostel is balanced out with transport to maidenhead so it\u2019s a no brainer really.\nSo here I go, off to do something way out of my comfort zone, with people I don\u2019t know, in an area I haven\u2019t yet visited.\nLondon, TravelHostelWorld, London adventure, London hostels, London travel\n\u2190 London is like everything you ever imagined and like nothing you\u2019ve ever seen.\nFour months and my dreams have come true \u2192",

        "raw_content": "HomeExpert View Story\nBudget 2011: Hits and Misses\nSonu Iyer | Edition:April 2011\nMr Das, my neighbour and a cricket enthusiast, summed up the Budget most aptly in the style of commentators so visible this World Cup. So, here's what he had to say, says Sonu Iyer, tax partner, Ernst & Young.\nDropped, Again\nWith inflation taking the prices of basic commodities, including the obscene rise in the cost of onions, to new heights in the past few months, the aam aadmi was looking to the finance minister and his Budget for some respite, but not a lot has changed for them.\nWith the Direct Taxes Code (DTC) expected to become effective from 1 April 2012, it was anticipated by many that some of the key provisions of the DTC would find some space in the Budget, most prominently an increase in the basic tax exemption limit to Rs 2 lakh. Unfortunately, a revision in the exemption slab to Rs.1.8 lakh from Rs 1.6 lakh has been disappointing given the minor relief. Well, at least we know it'll happen next year for sure.\nPeople have always been told that 'old is gold', but only now have I realised how much better old age is after the finance minister announced the special exemptions in the Budget for senior citizens.\nNot only has the basic tax exemption limit been hiked from Rs 2.4 lakh to Rs 2.5 lakh, the age for qualifying as a senior citizen has been brought down to 60 years from 65 years. Taxpayers in the age bracket of 60 to 65 years will benefit the most from the move this financial year.\nFurther, a separate category of 'very senior citizens' has been provided an exemption of Rs 5 lakh under the income tax law. Those who have completed 80 years on 31 March of the relevant financial year will be eligible for the special exemption. They are now entitled to an additional maximum tax savings of Rs 26,780.\nWide Ball, Extra Savings\nThough basic exemptions scored little for middle class India, some extra deductions should bring a little cheer, especially from individuals who contribute to the National Pension Scheme (NPS).\nCurrently, both the employee's and employer's contributions to the NPS are considered for the overall ceiling of deduction of Rs 1 lakh under Sections 80C/CCC/CCD for tax saving instruments.\nBudget 2011 has proposed that the employer's contribution to NPS be no longer considered a part of the ceiling. Additionally, t h e employer can claim tax deduction for the contribution (up to 10% of employee's salary).\nTherefore, a large contribu-Budget 2011: Hits and Misses tion by the employer would benefit the company with a higher tax deduction and the employee in saving tax. Additionally, a deduction of Rs 20,000, provided in the last finance budget on investment in infrastructure bonds, will continue for the next financial year as well.\nService tax is another juicy fruit for the government, which the Finance Ministry has been harvesting year-on-year to cover the deficiency in the budgeted revenue.\nThough service tax has been retained at 10.3%, new services have been added to the list of taxable ones. This means Mr Das will have to shell out more on some services, including his regular health check-ups.\nHouse That!\nWith the recent manyfold rise in real estate prices, buying a house still remains a dream for millions of people in India, including my neighbour. The finance minister, in his Budget, has addressed this issue and has raised the priority sector home loan limit from Rs 20 lakh to Rs 25 lakh-meaning greater access to loan funds.\nAlso, the interest subvention of 1% on home loans up to Rs 15 lakh, where the cost of the house does not exceed Rs 25 lakh, will come as a relief to the lower income group. The existing interest subsidy is on loans of Rs 10 lakh, where the cost of the house is Rs 20 lakh.\nAccordingly, Mr Das-seeking a home loan of up to Rs 15 lakh on a house costing not more than Rs 25 lakh- will be entitled to an interest rate subsidy of 1% and therefore, will have a potential saving of Rs 15,000 every year on a loan of Rs 15 lakh (at 10% rate of interest), a considerable amount.\nHowever, the above provisions may not ease the pain in the metropolitans, where real estate prices and demand for affordable housing is the highest in India. Further, people claiming tax benefits on payment of interest up to Rs 1.5 lakh on home loans can breathe easy as this provision will also continue. Such positive moves will not only encourage investment in housing and real estate, but will also bring down personal tax liability for the investor.\nCaught in the Fine Print\nEvery year, many like Mr Das have to decipher the new tax return form prescribed by the authorities and file their tax return. This is often a chaotic exercise in patience. But, if all goes well, then as per the Budget, salaried tax payers will not be required to file their tax return from the next financial year onwards. This will make the life of millions of tax payers easy as they will be free from filing their tax return, generally a complicated process for many.\nWhile this provision seems like a great boon, the practical implications of the fine print means that the amendment cannot be implemented practically. It could very well be looked at as unworkable.\nFor instance, the rules provide that an employee should have no other taxable income to be eligible to do this. This means practically no employee will actually qualify for this exemption from filing their taxes as a great majority of them will be earning at least some amount of interest on their savings bank account, which is taxable income. So much for that.\nIt's a Six\nSoon the days of chasing tax authorities tirelessly for your tax refunds will be over, at least let's hope so as Mr Das is doing.\nIf the web-based facility, an interface with the income tax department, to track resolution of refunds and credit for prepaid taxes sees the light of the day, it should make life a lot easier for all taxpayers. However, we need to wait and watch how soon the system will be implemented and if the tax authorities are equipped to use the facility effectively.\nBy the time Mr Das and I completed our last round, I realised life after Budget 2011 was similar to life after the World Cup match between India and England (the game was a tie and both escaped without a loss).\nNeither of the two teams were worse off for the close encounter, nor had they improved much owing to it.\nMore from Expert View",

        "title": "Companies are taking more women on board, often from promoter family",
        "raw_content": "Companies are taking more women on board, often from promoter family\nTina Edwin | Delhi, Edition:Aug 31, 2014\nSince regulatory changes came into effect - a new Companies Act and amended Clause 49 of Sebi's Listing Agreement - many promoter-run firms have inducted female family members as directors.\nNita Ambani, wife of Reliance Industries Chairman Mukesh Ambani, joined the company's board as a director on May 16, 2014.\nWhen Reliance Industries announced on May 16 it had inducted Nita Ambani, wife of RIL Chairman Mukesh Ambani, as a director, there was much consternation. The decision was denounced as a bad corporate governance practice. The common refrain was that RIL could have invited any seasoned woman professional to join the board.\nThis was not the first time Nita Ambani was appointed to a board. She has been an RIL nominee on the board of EIH Ltd, the company that owns and manages Oberoi Hotels, since October 2011. Reliance is invested in EIH.\nRelying on family: Nita Ambani, wife of Reliance Industries Chairman Mukesh Ambani, was recently inducted into the company's board.\nBut Ambani has to prove she has earned the two board positions, and that she is not there only because she is the wife of the country's richest man.\nAmbani's appointment is not unique. Since regulatory changes came into effect - a new Companies Act and amended Clause 49 of the Securities and Exchange Board of India's Listing Agreement - stipulating appointment of women to boards of companies, many promoter-run firms have inducted female family members as directors.\nAll listed companies and all public companies with paid up share capital of at least Rs 100 crore or turnover of Rs 300 crore are required to have a woman director. And so, wives, daughters and daughters-in-law of promoters find they have a new calling card.\nBina Modi, wife of K.K. Modi, is now an additional director at Godfrey Phillips India. Nawaz Gautam Singhania, wife of Gautam Singhania, is a non-executive director at Raymond. Others who have joined the boards of companies their families run in the past few months include Amrita Amar Vakil (Asian Paints), Deepshika Khaitan (Cera Sanitaryware), Gauri Kirloskar (Kirloskar Oil Engines) and Juhi Chawla (Gujarat Sidhee Cement).\nIt is not unusual for promoters to appoint female family members to the boards to meet the legal stipulation and to keep control within the family. It goes back to the era when no one spoke about corporate governance or protecting the interest of minority shareholders. It did not matter whether family members attended board meetings. On paper, their presence was marked. However, the rules of the game have changed now with stricter regulations and emphasis on good corporate governance practices.\nCOLUMN |Who cares why? Here's our chance\nData compiled by indianboards.com, a joint initiative of PRIME Database and the National Stock Exchange, show about 175 women from promoter groups are on boards as executive directors and about 100 as non-executive directors. These include women who set up their own businesses as well as younger generation of well-qualified women who have executive as well as board roles.\n\"If sons can be inducted on boards, why shouldn't qualified wives and daughters be? Why should they be deprived of board positions?\" asks Pallavi Shroff, Senior Partner at law firm Amarchand Mangaldas and board member of four companies. Many women directors are well-educated and capable individuals, she adds.\nAbout 35 per cent women directors from promoter groups are engineers, doctors, lawyers or postgraduates and another 45 per cent are graduates, according to the data compiled by indianboards.com.\nManisha Girotra, CEO of investment bank Moelis & Company India and a director of a couple of companies, says diversity on boards is important. \"Even if a woman gets inducted on the board for the wrong reason, she must do a good job,\" she says. \"If you are frivolous in the boardroom, you do disservice to your position.\"\nIllustration by Raj Verma.\nLegislating board positions for women was first initiated when a bill to amend the Companies Act was introduced in the Rajya Sabha in 2003. That bill contained several proposals that India Inc found unacceptable and had to be eventually withdrawn. Vinod Dhall, who was the secretary to the corporate affairs ministry at the time, says the intent of the proposal was to increase the presence of women on the boards of companies. \"We felt that the proposal would promote gender diversity and that women could bring greater sensitivity in addressing certain types of issues in board deliberations. I believe this is a progressive measure,\" he adds.\nNot many promoters are used to having women in their boardrooms, and so resistance has been high. Some say meritorious women would anyway find their way to the boards, and that they do not need crutches to get there. But even in advanced countries, where women form a large part of the workforce, they remain under-represented on boards until legislation makes induction of women directors compulsory. According to Women on Boards, a study by Biz Divas and Khaitan and Co, a fifth of world's 200 largest companies still do not have a woman on their boards. In India, about 850 NSE-listed companies have all-men boards, indianboards.com estimates.\nHaigreve Khaitan, Managing Partner at law firm Khaitan and Co, admits he was initially apprehensive about how the legislation requiring appointment of women on boards would play out. He finds those concerns misplaced now. \"Women have brought fresh perspective into the boardrooms. They have made boards more open with the questions they ask,\" he says.\nKhaitan finds women come better prepared for meetings than male directors and are not embarrassed to ask questions. \"Their questions are very sensible and logical.\"\nPriya Chetty Rajagopal, Executive Director, Leadership and Board Practice at executive search firm RGF and who is also on the boards of a few companies, concurs. \"Women don't want to wing it,\" she says. She felt that professionals like her join boards where they feel they can contribute to the growth of the company and also enhance their learning.\nWhat also helps is that glass ceilings largely disappear in boardrooms. \"Being on boards make women feel liberated to ask difficult questions and raise uncomfortable issues, which they may not even in top executive positions,\" says Padmaja Alaganandan, Executive Director, People and Change Consulting at PwC India. \"Questions on how this may impact future career progression etc become irrelevant.\"\nWhile women want to be on boards, and are accepting challenging roles, most women directors find it distasteful when calls come more because of their gender and less because of their achievements, adds Alaganandan.\nBut that is how it is. \"Clients send out briefs, sometimes a single line, asking us to find women directors,\" says Radhika Vivek, Executive Director at Sheffield Haworth, an executive search firm. With the September-end deadline for listed companies fast approaching, many are scrambling to find a woman director. No search firm would want to place just any woman on any board; it would be disastrous for the board and the woman if they don't complement each other. \"We ask companies to identify gaps in the board that an independent director can fill and then proceed to find a candidate who fits that profile,\" she adds. The idea is to bring on board a woman director who also has deep experience and hence can add value in specific areas.\nAppointing women on boards not only brings diversity to board composition but also makes corporate decisions more sensitive and inclusive. \"Women bring more world into the boardroom and they bring heart into decision,\" sums up Rajagopal.",

The group calls itself a blues band, but it jumps from genre to genre without apology. On any given night, the Blues Orphans might perform a polka with rap lyrics borrowed from DMX or 50 Cent; their rap version of Roger Miller's \"King of the Road\" is another standout \u0097 cutting-edge, yet classic.\nHarmonica player Andy Gabig characterizes the Blues Orphans as \"straight-up American music.\" Their sound ranges from traditional old-school blues, bluegrass, and country and western to hip hop, rap and urban honky-tonk.\n\"We really play in that jam-band vein,\" Gabig explains. It's not unusual for the Blues Orphans, who are listed in The Jazz and Blues Lover's Guide to the U.S. , to play one four-hour set \u0085 and if the groove is right, they'll ride it all night long.\nAndy and his older brother Bobby grew up in a musical family: Their grandfather and uncles played country and western and Irish music. The brothers have been scholars and players of music all their lives. As befits their diverse tastes, they've sopped up the blues in the Windy City and hung out in the punk clubs of New York to feed on the sounds of the Sex Pistols. The band has performed in the streets of San Francisco, Montreal and New Orleans.\nTheir mode of transportation to these cities was often rail, and Bobby and Andy would play music the entire way. In 1983, the brothers settled once again in Pittsburgh, and their cousin Roy \"Bones\" Fitzpatrick joined the band.\nThe streets of Pittsburgh haven't been as kind. \"When we played on the streets here, people would walk by and tell us to get a job,\" Andy says.\n\"There isn't any kind of street-music scene here,\" Bobby agrees.\nBut the band tries not to take such setbacks, or themselves, too seriously. As Bobby Gabig says, \"There's no market for old, bald-white-guy rap and blues. We're like the birds in the trees. We just sing.\"\nThe trio didn't really have a name during its early years. One night in the late 1970s, a bar patron called them \"just a couple of blues orphans,\" and the name stuck.\nThe Blues Orphans have been bringing their incredibly diverse sounds to the people since 1974. Though the line-up has changed and grown, it currently includes: Dave Yoho (drums); Andy Gabig (harmonica, backing vocals); Fitzpatrick (electric bass); Nelson Harrison (trombone); Bobby Gabig (guitar, vocals); Mark Custer (trumpet); and Joe Briggs (upright bass).\nBand members bring diverse r\u00e9sum\u00e9s of their own. Harrison's credentials include stints with the Count Basie Orchestra and the Boilermaker Jazz Band; he's a current member of the Roger Humphries Big Band and the Pittsburgh Jazz All Stars. Yoho has headed many rock and reggae bands; when not jamming with the Blues Orphans, he leads his own band, The Heard. Custer is a classically trained trumpeter and has been a member of the River City Brass Band for 17 years. Briggs studied bass in college and has played music ranging from bluegrass and jazz to classical and Latin.\nOn any given night, various blues and jazz professionals sit in. The Orphans have welcomed locals like Chizmo Charles, and played alongside national artists like Sugar Blue and Big Wheeler.\nIn all, the Blues Orphans have recorded and released three albums, the most recent a 2005 record in which the Gabig brothers and Fitzpatrick played as a trio calling themselves The Blue Opry Brothers. The album, Corn Creek Travesty, is a blend of country and Western and Irish music compiled as a tribute to their musical grandfather, Leo Fitzpatrick.\nNext year, the Orphans head back into the studio to record a new album. But in the meantime you can see for yourself what the hype is all about. The Blues Orphans trio plays next on Fri., Dec. 15, at the Affogato Coffee House, in Bellevue.\nNews Feature Extras",

        "title": "Top 5 Ski Resorts Across the World | ManCavin",
        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Happiness \u00bb Top 5 Ski Resorts Across the World\nIn Happiness, Sports, Travel\nManCavin Staff January 15, 2017\nMost of us travel in the summer time for our R&R, but that can sometimes have its drawbacks. Too crowded, too hot, too many bugs or maybe we are just too busy in the heart of the summer work season to enjoy a proper hiatus. If this sounds like you, maybe you should consider taking a Winter Vacation, Whether you ski, snowboard, or just want to relax, check out these amazing ski resorts.\nI have listed below 5 amazing ski resort destinations from across the world. These destinations are suitable for beginners and experts alike. They are also suitable to bring along that special someone who does not enjoy the outdoors. These resorts have a little bit of something for everyone.\n1. Jackson Hole, WY Resort\nThis ski resort is a favorite spot of those who tired of the more frequented places on the Rocky Mountains. There is skiing and snowboarding available for beginners to experts to everybody in between. For those that want adventure but neither of those is their thing, there is also an extensive climbing wall and bungee. Finally, there is also a bike park. There is also very scenic dining at 9000\u2032 located at the Piste Mountain Bistro. You get there via a ride on the Bridger Gondola.\n2. Alta, UT Resort\nThis destination is a good stateside spot for those who are looking for a place that has less traffic at it. There are ski lessons for children, adults and everything in between. There is also snowcat skiing. Further, if you are looking for a backcountry adventure instead of just regular skiing; this is an awesome option for you. There are fantastic options for helicopter skiing and skiing at six resorts in one day here.\n3. Nevados de Chilean, Chile\nIf you wish to go a little further from home, consider this one. There\u2019s skiing and snowboarding. There is also a special snow camp for ladies that are learning how to ski. It is a two-day event in September that is held annually. They have backcountry options for those that are interested in that. It should also be noted that there is a spa and water park here. That means that even if you are the only skier in the family, your spouse and/or children should still be able to find something to do.\nZermatt, which is located in the Alps, is an excellent resort for skiing, hiking and climbing. For those that would be interested, it is very close to the Matterhorn (which on side note is far scarier than it looks going the normal route from Zermatt). That remark is assuming you are experienced in the mountains though\u2013while it\u2019s not Everest or K2 it is not a walk up such as Kilimanjaro or Elbrus. In any event, it is quite scenic and beautiful up there. If you want a break from skiing and/or climbing, there is plenty of culture and history nearby to be explored as well.\n5. Gulmarg Ski Resort, India\nThe Himalayans are a lifelong dream for many climbers. Obviously where one would want to climb and where they would want to ski are different here. That said, the area of the Himalayans offers its own culture and uniqueness that deserves to be explored. They offer packages with a guide (even the most experienced should have a guide up here). They offer the western guide which is specifically designed for people that have only been in America previously. This can be highly useful regarding both cultural and altitude issues alike.\nIn conclusion, those are some of the best ski resorts that the world has to offer. As to what is absolutely better\u2026that is subjective to a large extent. Further it would be absurd for me to sit here and try to tell you whether Switzerland or India is better. They are both awesome in their own right; just have very different things to offer.\nTopics: best ski resorts ski ski packages ski resorts ski trip ski vacation ski vacation packages ski vacations skiing snowboard snowboarding winter activities winter sports winter vacation world travel\nPrevious Post Reasons Not to Get a Tattoo: Worst Tattoos Ever\nNext Post Back to School-Is now the right time?",

        "raw_content": "Between June 2001 and and the beginning of this past week (over a span of nearly 9 years), the Chicago Tribune wrote about Haiti fewer than 100 times. Last year, Trib writers made just about 20 mentions of the island that everyone is talking about this week.\nAs I write this blog today, nearly 200 articles (and counting) have been written in the Trib about this week's major earthquake and ensuing natural/humanitarian Haitian disaster, which is partially due to that country's history of neglect and poverty.\nTrib writers are furiously pumping out articles about Haiti's history alongside sponsored links where you can make donations to relief organizations. The articles detail up-to-the-minute reports of relief shipments and volunteer troop arrivals... case studies of individual suffering and of the heroes who are lending medical and rebuilding assistance... sports figures taking moments of silence with their fans in arenas throughout the U.S.A... celebrities and politicians using their influence to raise money... businesses donating astronomical sums... and about people like us who are responding via our cell phones and social networks to raise millions ourselves, a few bucks at a time. (AP photo by Ramon Espinosa / January 15, 2010)\nOf course, this is all quite literally awesome.\nBut where was the attention before this week?\nWhy does it always take a catastrophe of \"biblical proportions\" (as I saw one headline stated earlier this week) to motivate people to learn (or care) about poverty, suffering, and corruption... and to then take action?\nBecause as many Americans are learning this week (guided by newly interested media and political leadership), the suffering in Haiti didn't begin on Monday.\n\"Haiti\" is the #1 result on Yahoo's \"Trending Now\" list as I write this. Many Americans are surely running into essays like this one, published in 1986 by THE HAITI PROJECT, which details historical/colonial \"root causes\" of poverty... but also looks at \"more immediate causes of poverty\" in Haiti, such as a neglected and insufficient school system (leading to illiteracy problems); unemployment and an underdeveloped workforce; and a \"self-defeating image of themselves... a self-image [that] creates its own cycle of misery.\"\nI'll stop far short of comparing exact reasons for Haitian poverty to those of American poverty. Clearly there are huge differences in histories and available resources. But equally clear, there are some obvious similarities.\nSee this article for a look at \"The Core of the Problem\" in the United States, which features a look at the book American Apartheid, by Douglas Massey and Nancy A. Denton. The book is rooted in statistics and history, and details how hyper-segregated high-poverty American neighborhoods have been systematically neglected by politicians and others... and how generation after generation, families in these neighborhoods have faced unique barriers to resources such as jobs and education... and that their political and spatial isolation, combined with generations of hopelessness and frustration have created not only anger, but - as the author argues - alternative value systems and a self image that occasionally get the kids in trouble.\nNow, by no means do I want to diminish the magnitude of this Haitian disaster, the suffering, and the need for you to take action and make a donation to a relief organization.\nBut again, I can't help but wonder what it is about human beings - who are so clearly compassionate in times of disaster - that prevents them from consistently addressing suffering before the suffering is tied to a catastrophe?\nI ask you to read about poverty in the United States and get involved to address the physical, economic, and social suffering that is happening right here, right now, in your backyard... suffering that might affect you whether you feel it or not.\nI urge you to then lean on people you know, or who represent you... people in positions of political, media, and business power... to create preventative leadership strategies that incorporate tutoring/mentoring as a part of the plan of attack.\nWhat will it take? A catastrophe much closer to home?\nNational Mentoring Month - Do Yourself a Quick and Easy Favor!\nDid you copy and paste that email I wrote for you yet, sending it to people you know who are concerned with crime, education, and workforce development in Chicago?\nPlease make no mistake, I'm not asking for a favor here... You're helping yourself. But don't take my word for it...\nSee, it's National Mentoring Month... below, I explore findings and thoughts from influential businessmen and politicians (Democrats and Republicans). They too have done the research and are sold on the fact that YOUR small commitment... light reading, a few hours of volunteering when you can... and (importantly) occasional dissemination of information throughout your email, Facebook, Twitter networks... can make YOUR world better.\nJust as I am trying to do on this blog, State Farm Chairman and CEO Ed Rust asks his people \"to take action in their communities by sharing information about the campaign [to address the dropout crisis]with friends and family, working with a school or nonprofit organization in some capacity, or becoming a mentor.\"\nWhy does a businessman care about dropouts or mentoring at-risk students?\n\u201cAs a business leader, State Farm knows first-hand that graduation is a critical first step to future success for our students and future prosperity for our nation.\u201d\nNeed stats? They got em:\n\"Experts say that dropping out of high school affects not just students and their families, but the country overall \u2013 including businesses, government and communities. The Alliance for Excellent Education estimates that high school dropouts from the Class of 2006-07 will cost the U.S. more than $329 billion in lost wages, taxes and productivity over their lifetimes.\"\nPerhaps this explains why politicians are beginning to look at mentoring programs in earnest.\nThe late Senator Ted Kennedy introduced and passed legislation in 2007, encouraging \"more organizations across the Nation, including schools, businesses, nonprofit organizations and faith institutions, foundations, and individuals to become engaged in mentoring.\"\nFrom the text of bill S. Res. 61 [110th]:\n* \"Research provides strong evidence that mentoring can promote positive outcomes for young people, such as an increased sense of industry and competency, a boost in academic performance and self-esteem, and improved social and communications skills.\"\n* \"Studies of mentoring further show that a quality mentoring relationship successfully reduces the incidence of risky behaviors, delinquency, absenteeism, and academic failure.\"\n* \"In spite of the strides made in the mentoring field, the Nation has a serious 'mentoring gap,' with nearly 15,000,000 young people currently in need of mentors.\"\nArne Duncan, whose experience has taken him from Chicago's Public Schools to Washington, D.C., as President Obama's Secretary of Education, responds to those who would suggest, \"This is not my problem. Their parents should help them,\" by reminding that not all kids HAVE positive role models or parents with the ability to help them reach their potential, for the benefit of us all.\nInstead the reality is that \"all adults share this responsibility, whether it's teaching ... lessons to their own children or someone else's. It starts with parents but it continues with others: teachers, coaches, mentors and friends.\"\nAnd these realities are not just those of the liberal left. California's Republican Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger is among those conservatives who see mentoring as vital to America as a whole, not just a \"short-term, charitable, feel-good luxury, when time allows.\"\nAs early as 2004, Schwarzenegger proclaimed that \"Mentoring partnerships between business and education provide a vital channel for businesses to support young Californians in their communities.\"\nMore stats that might concern you?\nThe Governator tells us: \"Research has shown that student mentoring programs increase attendance and improve academic performance. Mentored youths are 52 percent less likely to skip school, 46 percent less likely to experiment with drugs and 27 percent less likely to drink alcohol.\nSound good? Look, these problems are complex and will take years of thinking and strategizing by many people in many different places over a long period of time. Is mentoring the whole answer? Probably not, but clearly there are economic, academic, and social advantages to mentoring, with likely negative consequences for all of us, if people like us do not start using our social networks to, at minimum, raise awareness among those who might be (or know someone) in a position to mobilize business or political resources on behalf of addressing our common economic and social issues.\nThat's a mouthful, huh? Well, fortunately, here's the beautiful thing: It's easier done than said!\nYOU are in a position to do something at little or no cost, to join with millions of others who are helping students now, so we all live in a better tomorrow.\nStart by reading my last blog and taking 5 minutes to copy and paste that email... in hopes we can reach everyone we know that wants to help us in our mission.",

        "title": "Best Autoresponder",
        "raw_content": "Autoresponders can be used for promoting and enhancing business by facilitating easy business communication. This Buzzle article provides information on the need of an autoresponder software, and also review the best ones on the market.\nHave you recently started an online business? If yes, then I am sure you are looking for some help to increase your business. One of the options, which you may want to consider is the use of an autoresponder software. It is an automated response system that sends out email messages to a particular mailing list, which is an easy and effective solution for business communication. This sending out of email messages is scheduled well in advance. With this service, you will not have to sit and send a big list of emails manually. You will be able to send out emails to many consumers or clients without having to worry about it. Now that we have agreed, it is a great way of promoting business, let's try to find out the best ones in the business.\nAutoresponder Software Review\nThere are three types of auto responding software in the market: free, scripts and remote autoresponder software. Each one of them has its own positive and negative points. Let us take a look at some in detail.\nIf you are full-time Internet marketer and need to correspond with your clients everyday, then you may want to consider Aweber. A customer is charged approximately $30 per month. Unlike other free auto responding software, Aweber ensures emails are delivered. Its interface and tools are user-friendly, and forms can be set up as well. There is the direct sign-up form for the customer's website. Apart from emails, there are other services which can be availed as well. There are pop over ads, pop under ads, shape of a fly ad, etc. The fonts and colors of the ads can also be edited. There is built-in tracking for the sign-up form and also for the messages.\nOne of the major advantages of this software is that it provides a free marketing tutorial. At the same time, the user is provided with excellent telephone technical support. Every aspect of the emails sent out are tracked, which helps in identifying the weaker areas. The tracking ranges from email clicks, opens as well as sales in real time. There is the form builder, which enables the user to build engaging web forms only with a few clicks. There are as many as 500 templates that save time on template design. The email marketing can also be tracked using an iPhone. It also includes features like email-to-speech, video email marketing, online surveys, etc., which help in boosting business.\nInfusionsoft not only helps with Internet marketing, but also has a customer relationship management system (CRM) in place along with email marketing. In this system, all details about the leads are tracked down. The details are of immense help in sending out targeted emails, which help in boosting sales. It has a smart automation system that enables the user to send out specific messages to a prospective customer, depending on the customers response and background. It is also equipped with an Open API, which allows integration with other platforms. It also facilitates easy import or export of contacts.\nplx Autoresponder v3.8\nThis autoresponder script can be used on Linux, Unix as well as Windows platform. The only potential drawback in using this software is that you should be well-versed with scripts. Also, images cannot be sent. Therefore, if your email marketing strategies include sending images, then this is not the right option for you.\nBefore you buy any one, it is important that you decide the need of an auto responding system. Using a trial version makes sense in such a case. It will help you assess the usability and necessity before you actually invest in one.",

        "title": "What is an Accredited Investor? | Mark J Kohler |",
        "raw_content": "If you are looking to raise capital, finding an \u201cAccredited Investor\u201d, or even being able to explain the rules to a possible investor, can seem as impossible as catching a glimpse of a Snow Leopard.\nYes, it can be difficult to find investors for your project, and it certainly seems that the SEC makes it more difficult than it should be, but there is a reason why\u2026and more importantly, reasons why you need to know the rules and follow them.\nThe bedrock of most exemptions from SEC registration is a requirement that securities only be sold to \u201cAccredited Investors.\u201d This way people that aren\u2019t sophisticated enough to understand investing aren\u2019t taken advantage of.\nQualifying as an Accredited Investor\nSo, what kind of education or experience is necessary to obtain the status of Accredited Investor? None whatsoever. For most intents and purposes, the operative definition of Accredited Investor from Rule 501 of Regulation D is either:\n1) A natural person who has individual net worth, or joint net worth with the person\u2019s spouse, that exceeds $1 million at the time of the purchase, or has assets under management of $1 million or above, excluding the value of the individual\u2019s primary residence; or\n2) A natural person with income exceeding $200,000 in each of the two most recent years or joint income with a spouse exceeding $300,000 for those years and a reasonable expectation of the same income level in the current year.\nSo, being an Accredited Investor isn\u2019t about being educated or experienced \u2013 it\u2019s about being (relatively) rich. The rationale behind this rule is not that rich folks are less likely to be swindled or make dumb investments, it\u2019s that they are less likely to invest everything they have in a particular investment, and be left destitute if/when the whole thing tanks.\nHow the SEC plays a role\nSo if you\u2019re raising capital for your business, depending on the procedure you\u2019re following, the SEC requires you to treat potential investors in certain ways. Sometimes you can avoid looking for Accredited Investors.\nThe most popular exemption to SEC registration is Rule 506 of Regulation D, which allows those offering securities to raise an unlimited amount of capital from an unlimited number of Accredited Investors. It also nominally allows investment from up to 35 non-accredited investors, but for many reasons, that exception to the Accredited Investor requirement is a mirage. For all intents and purposes, ALL INVESTORS in a Rule 506 Offering must qualify as Accredited Investors.\nSo, why is this important? Well, for those raising (or thinking about raising) capital, if you sell your securities to non-accredited investors in a Rule 506 Offering, you will have blown your federal registration exemption, and you will be guilty of selling an unregistered security \u2013 which can subject you to both civil and criminal liability.\nAnother option is Rule 504 of Regulation D, which allows you to raise money from ANYONE! That\u2019s right\u2026you don\u2019t have to worry if they are \u201cAccredited\u201d. However, there are some catches.\nFirst, you are limited to a 5 million dollar raise of capital in any 12 month period.\nSecond, even though you may get out of the Federal or SEC rules for Accredited Investors, you have to confirm what the rules are in EACH state you talk with investors.\nThe History of \u201cWhy\u201d\nOver the course of two days on October 28 and October 29, 1929, the stock market lost nearly one-quarter of its value. By the middle of 1933, the Dow Jones Industrial Average had declined 89% from its all-time high of September 3, 1929.\nA combination of rampant stock market speculation, unscrupulous business practices, and good old-fashioned American greed led to millions of Americans losing billions of dollars, and plunged the United States (and the entire world), into a decade-long economic morass that came to be known as The Great Depression. The Dow wouldn\u2019t get back to the level of September 3, 1929, until around Thanksgiving in 1954.\nIn response to the 1929 Crash and the Great Depression that followed, FDR and Congress passed two landmark pieces of securities regulation legislation \u2013 the Securities Act of 1933 (the \u201c1933 Act\u201d), and the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 (the \u201c1934 Act\u201d). The 1934 Act created the Securities and Exchange Commission (the \u201cSEC\u201d) which has been going strong regulating U.S. securities markets and working hard to protect American investors (or to make life unduly difficult for people trying to raise capital \u2013 depending on who you ask) for more than 84 years now.\nThe 1933 and 1934 Acts provide that any offer to sell securities must either be registered with the SEC or meet certain qualifications to be exempt from the requirement to register. One of the best-known SEC regulations, Regulation D, is where you can find the rules on how to meet those qualifications.\n\u2018So What\u2019 if I\u2019m an investor and don\u2019t care?\nOk, so if I just want to invest (and I\u2019m NOT an accredited investor) then I\u2019m fine, right? It\u2019s my risk I\u2019m taking. Wrong. If you lied and told the party selling the securities that you were accredited when you weren\u2019t, then you are probably guilty of fraud. A more nuanced problem comes to the surface when you participate in a securities offering, and it\u2019s sort of \u201cdon\u2019t ask, don\u2019t tell\u201d when it comes in Accredited Investor status. At the very least, this means you have invested with someone who has failed to \u201cdot their I\u2019s and cross their t\u2019s.\u201d You could end up with your investment becoming frozen for months or even years, while the SEC and state securities regulators investigate and figure out what to do.\nAt the end of the day, someone trying to sell you securities who is willing to cut corners on securities issues just raises a ton of red flags. Where else are they cutting corners? Are they incompetent, or just cheap? What are they promising to other investors? Why are they so desperate to raise capital?\nBottom line, knowing what to ask (and how things \u201cshould\u201d work) is a huge advantage, regardless of which side of the transaction you are on. However, it\u2019s a situation where you usually just don\u2019t know what you don\u2019t know.\nThis is why an experienced securities attorney is invaluable to walk you through the transaction to make sure everything is done correctly. Having one on your side can help keep your investment safe \u2013 and maybe even keep you out of prison.\n[Written in collaboration with Jarom Bergeson, Attorney at KKOS Lawyers]",

Adding delight to the children\u2019s day was, top Mercedes-Benz Formula 1 racer, Nico Rosberg who accompanied them on a tour around the circuit.\nThe children were taken to pitstops to discover the various race cars that are driven by the F1 champions. Witnessing high speed cornering and the most legendary bends on the best track in the region was an overwhelming experience for the Down syndrome children. One they will cherish for life.\n\u201cGargash Enterprises is determined to assist UAE DSA with increasing awareness among the community and brightening the lives of these children. We hope to bring about a difference and educate the society that it is not a disorder; it is a situation that demands more affection. With our integrity and passion for the community we hope to help promote acceptance and understanding of Down syndrome in the UAE\u201d, said Mr. Karl Johan Sandesjo, General Manager - Gargash Enterprises.\nDown Syndrome is a genetic condition whereby a person is born with three copies of chromosome 21 versus two. The average IQ of a young adult with Down syndrome is 50, equivalent to the mental age of an 8 or 9 year old child, but this varies widely. Down syndrome children are educated in typical school classes, while others require more specialized education. UAE DSA is a non-profit organization that aims at improving quality of life for people with Down syndrome.\nGargash Enterprises being an ardent supporter of UAEDSA has been actively involved in carrying out various activities and events for the development of the children of this association. Driving the children down to the legendary parade in Mercedes-Benz cars, taking them for a chauffeur drive tour to major attractions in Dubai, giving them a chance to witness the famous F1 race at Yas Marina; all these activities were carried out in an effort to promote their acceptance in the society. Gargash Enterprises envisions many such inspiring events for the future as well, that will help raise awareness about Down syndrome and encourage society to see beyond its limitations.",

May\u2019s monthly newsletter (sent last week) included the below post, an extension of May 7th\u2019s blog post, Grace: The Glory of Friendship. I thought you might enjoy it, too. By the way, if you want to receive the monthly email newsletter, OR if you want to have these blog posts delivered directly to your inbox, use the blue subscribe button on the left.\nIn a world absent of stability, we crave loyalty. We long for friends who prove steadfast and unwavering, over countless years and complicated circumstances. Regardless of how impossible its tasks, today becomes bearable\u2014enjoyable!\u2014when buoyed by the presence of faithful others.\nBut I wonder if our desire for it is equalled by the desire to offer it?\nEven more than our longing to receive friendship, we must be people determined to be friendship. We need to be the friend who faithfully cheers on the weary, encourages the discouraged, ignites the disenheartened. We need to be friends who see the potential beyond the mess, who maintain the capacity to believe in spite of evidence to the contrary. We must be the friend who celebrates another\u2019s joy without harboring envy, and weathers a struggle without growing faint.\nHow? As it turns out, the One who spoke to Moses \u201cface to face, as a man speaks with his friend\u201d (Ex. 33:11) knows a thing or two about what it takes to be a true friend:\nServe\u2014not ministries or organizations, but individuals (Galatians 5:13)\nChoose words that build, strengthen.

(Matthew 4:18-20)\nCling to people, not offenses. (Luke 6:37-38, 1 Peter 4:8)\nDo more than say \u201cI love you.\u201d Live \u201cI love you.\u201d (Ephesians 5:2, 1 John 3:18)\nNeed a boost? Send someone a card. Want company? Find someone who\u2019s alone. Give away what you wish for. (Matthew 7:12)\nHang out with the sick and messy. Not the healthy and clean.

        "raw_content": "Have you ever wondered about the concept of spiritual beings like angels and guides? If they really exist? I\u201dm here to say they do! And they want to help you and guide you through life in everything you do. We find life to be challenging in many situations and tend to feel alone in our problems. Your angels can\u2019t help unless you ask! I\u2019m clairsentient, which means I have a strong gift of being able to feel the energy of angels, guides and those that have passed away and am able to channel what they have to say to you! Angel card readings are always positive. You don\u2019t have to worry that there will be bad news or something foreboding said. All messages are helpful to you and will guide you to a higher state of being with more clarity. What\u2019s to expect in a reading: All readings are done via Zoom and you\u2019ll get to choose your cards, I\u2019ll show them to you as they are revealed and will intuitively receive the messages for you from each card. You can choose whether to receive guidance on a certain issue or question you may have or also just hear what your angels want you to know. I will ask you questions throughout the reading to gauge whether it is resonating with you and get more of a feel for a certain issue. What you will receive: A recording of the session will be emailed to you along with a synopsis of your intuitive reading and instructions on how to follow through with the guidance. You\u2019ll also receive a picture of the cards and the spread that we used. You\u2019ll always have access to it and can go back and listen and make notes if you feel the need. As an intuitive life and business coach, I can also guide you to take action in a more aligned way for your business or a particular situation in your life. I offer a special session that includes 3 cards read for a specific situation you need healing on and dealt with. This is highly beneficial to those that need clarity and direction on an issue and want to move past it quickly. I look forward to doing a reading for you!",

        "raw_content": "Let\u2019s imagine what a public urban transportation system for the future will look like: There will be a network of bus stops and transit stations strategically positioned connecting each neighborhood to the city\u2019s business districts, hospitals and shopping centers. There will be a fleet of buses, light-rail, shuttles, driverless cars and bikes, all controlled by an intelligent management system. The system analyzes real-time data on the number of passengers at each location and their destinations and traffic conditions, and deploys the fleet to take every passenger to his/her destination in the most efficient and economical way. No more walking for two miles before getting to the nearest bus stop. No more congestion at the end of a workday. No more loss of employment opportunities because two communities are not connected by public transportation. We are at the brink of the next revolution in public urban transportation and mobility which needs to mitigate congestion, decrease environmental impact, reduce cost, expand service, reduce inequality in access to transportation and bring health and social benefits to inner cities and distressed neighborhoods. Such a revolution is now made possible by ubiquitous digital connectivity, significant advances in autonomous vehicles, intelligent transportation and asset management systems that benefit from state-of-the-art data science methodology.\nAiming to enable a vision for future transportation, the research team carries out pioneering work in designing novel data-driven urban transportation systems and building the descriptive, predictive, and prescriptive technologies to power them. The optimal design of these urban transportation systems will be informed by models for travel demand, accessibility, driver behavior, and transportation networks. These descriptive and predictive models will be derived by mining and fusing the rich and large data sets newly available and calibrated through interventions and machine learning. The envisioned transportation systems will be operated using real-time optimization algorithms and innovative coordinated traffic assignments to mitigate congestion, maximize network capacity utilization, and improve safety. The project will not only optimize costs, greenhouse emissions, and convenience, It will also strive to boost mobility for entire population segments and transform how to plan and manage a transportation infrastructure optimized for 20th century notions of human mobility. We aim to start testing our system within a year on UM campus, in collaboration with the UM Parking and Transportation Services Department. We will then expand our experiment to Ann Arbor and Detroit.\nThis is a multi-disciplinary team from four UM colleges, UM Transportation Research Institute (UMTRI), and the CDC Injury Center. The team has a history of innovation and deployment in intelligent transportation and asset management systems. The team has significant expertise in data science, from descriptive analytics to predictive and prescriptive analytics and interventions, and in the underlying economic and social mechanisms that are critical to successful deployments.\nPascal Van Hentenryck, project Principal Investigator, speaks at the 2016 MIDAS symposium:\nSlides from Pascal Van Hentenryck\u2019s presentation at the 2017 MIDAS Transportation Symposium (PDF).\nRITMO-Transit: the team has designed algorithms for a multi-modal, on-demand mass transit system, including network design, trip splitting, zone allocation, fleet sizing, driver rostering, as well as the real-time dispatching, routing, and car-sharing. The first deployment (on U-M North Campus) happened in January, 2018. Collaborating with AAATA, the team is now designing a new bus network for Ann Arbor and Ypsilanti.\nRITMO-Commute aims to design a massive trip-sharing architecture. The team has shown that real-time optimization is essential to this effort.\nRITMO-Privacy concerns the release of sensitive datasets for benchmarking, competition, or procurement settings. The team has proposed a \u201cconstraint-based\u201d differential privacy policy that leverages the post-processing immunity of differential privacy to obtain orders of magnitude improvements in accuracy for mobility and energy applications.\nRITMO-Survey focuses on evaluating traveler responses to the RITMO-Transit system upon its implementation on the U of M Ann Arbor campus. The team has received 4,473 survey responses, which will provide information on respondents\u2019 current travel behavior and their likelihood of using RITMO-Transit vs. driving, walking and biking under different deployment scenarios.\nThe team has filed five patents, and its mobile apps have been deployed through Apple and Google stores.\nRITMO has gathered a large-scale dataset on the travel behaviors and travel preferences of the U-M population for their commute trips and inter-campus trips, which may be used by other U-M researchers.\nThe team has developed and simulated an on-demand, multimodal transit system for Ann Arbor and is ready to deploy it. The system improves convenience, cost, and accessibility.\nPascal Van Hentenryck, Seth Bonder Collegiate Professor of Industrial and Operations Engineering\nPatrick Carter, Assistant Professor, Emergency Medicine\nAmy Cohn, Arthur F.

        "raw_content": "Solvis GmbH, a German manufacturer of heating systems and solar panels, approached MMID to support them to develop the \u2018baby brother\u2019 of their popular heating system SolvisMax. The result is SolvisBen, an innovative, future-proof, modular heating system.\nThe main challenge was to reduce the SolvisMax to a third of its size. The idea was to create the housing of the product out of Expanded Polypropylene (EPP), a material which is easy to shape and takes care of isolation as well. Therefore, Solvis partnered up with EPP specialist HSV. It was our job to develop a robust sheet metal construction that supports everything that is assembled to the boiler. It had to be a modular construction, making the product suitable for different set-ups, like oil, gas and solar powered energy. We managed to put a lot of functionality into only four sheet metal parts. It\u2019s not modular in a way that you can exchange parts, but the product was designed in such a way that you are able to assemble every component in every desired position.\nServiceability was of course another important requirement. The product needs to be accessible to multiple users. We created a construction with layered doors that provides access to different layers of maintenance. The first layer shows only the basic settings to the end-user. If you open the door, you will access the next layer which enables technicians to access the main pcb to connect electronics, add sensors or to do maintenance. Finally, you will get to the core of the product which contains the hardware.\nIn several productive and efficient workshops with Solvis, HSV and other suppliers, we aligned the different aspects of the design, which led to a very successful product that was introduced to the market in a short lead time.",

Only one-fifth of physics Ph.D.\u2019s in this country are awarded to women, and only about half of those women are American; of all the physics professors in the United States, only 14 percent are women. The numbers of black and Hispanic scientists are even lower; in a typical year, 13 African-Americans and 20 Latinos of either sex receive Ph.D.\u2019s in physics. The reasons for those shortages are hardly mysterious \u2014 many minority students attend secondary schools that leave them too far behind to catch up in science, and the effects of prejudice at every stage of their education are well documented. But what could still be keeping women out of the STEM fields (\u201cSTEM\u201d being the current shorthand for \u201cscience, technology, engineering and mathematics\u201d), which offer so much in the way of job prospects, prestige, intellectual stimulation and income?",

I figured I didn't have time to work out ciphers and such. The real problem was I didn't take a close enough look at those puzzles. Recently, I started looking at puzzle caches in the area and found that a good number of those could be solved by logic, by computer algorithm, or by looking up keywords on the web to find decryption software. So in a matter of days, I got solutions to over 70 puzzle caches!\nToday, I headed out to Hatfield, Souderton, Sellersville, Perkasie, and Lansdale to do a bunch of puzzle caches for which I had solutions. Of course, I also did any traditional caches I came across along the way just because. In the end, I got 28 caches in that area, 7 of which were puzzles. The group I targeted was the \"Programming Purgatory\" series. Each PP puzzle is a piece of obfuscated code in an undisclosed programming language and the output is the final cache coordinates. Of course, if you know what language it is, then you can simply get the compiler or interpreter and run it. I was familiar with all those languages, actually. Well, not PP 0011, which was in COBOL, but fortunately OpenCOBOL could handle it! The puzzle that gave me the most trouble was PP 0001. It is VBScript but I assumed it was VB.NET at first and wondered why it failed.\nIt was slightly rainy the whole day. In the evening, the rain picked up so I decided to leave the area and go to dinner, which was salad and shrimp fondue at Ruby Tuesday in Concord Mall, back in Delaware. As I was leaving the mall, I got a notification that a cache was published just two miles down the road. I wondered if I would be able to do that at night as it's in the woods, although not far from the sidewalk. It turned out to be not too difficult and I got an FTF at 11pm on \"Katona's Cache\".\nTiny Often Empty Park: Hatfield, Pa (Pennsylvania)\nScooby: The Spirits of '76 #21 (resurrected) (Pennsylvania)\nI Love This Game (Pennsylvania)\nProgramming Purgatory 0011 (Pennsylvania)\nG.I.

        "raw_content": "Home Blog\tStaying Sane in Malta: Travel Whenever Possible\nYou all know that I love Malta and despite it\u2019s negatives (of which there are many) I\u2019ve spent the last 5 years singing it\u2019s praises on this blog and generally loving the life that I have created here. However, Malta is an intense island. If the chaos or heat don\u2019t drive you mad, then the size of the place surely will. Its tiny, and although it feels much bigger than it actually is when living here, it\u2019s still essential to get out frequently. When living in Malta there will be things you miss; big proper cities, forests, decent parks, real supermarkets and shopping centres to name just a few. So, to best enjoy your life, living in Malta, my advice is to travel whenever you can.\nRyanair and Easyjet both serve Malta, so it\u2019s pretty easy to get quick and cheap flights to lots of places across Europe. If money isn\u2019t really an option, then you\u2019re set, but if you\u2019re on a budget, keep an eye on the flight and you\u2019ll find returns to Barcelona for \u20ac50, trips to Italy for \u20ac20. Joe and I have been lucky enough to be able to travel quite a lot in the 5 years we\u2019ve lived in Malta so I decided to set up a whole new blog, dedicated to travel.\nTravel On, Up & Away is my new site in order not to clog this Malta based blog up with posts that aren\u2019t relevant to Malta and to share my travel experiences. You can expect hotel reviews, information on where we went and why, what we thought of the various countries and cities and whether we\u2019d go back. I share pictures from the sights we made time to see, and whether they were worth a visit, as well as general travel tips to make travelling as cheap and hassle free as possible.\nIf you enjoy travel, whether you live in Malta or anywhere else in the world, it\u2019d mean so much to me if you could check out my new site and let me know what you think!\nStaying Sane in Malta: Travel Whenever Possible was last modified: January 14th, 2017 by Rhi",

        "raw_content": "The Hunters bought their very own island paradise for less than \u00a310,000\nWhen this couple moved their life from the USA to a tiny island in South East Asia, they thought they\u2019d be there for a year. The opportunity came up when Rory Hunter was offered 12 month contract at marketing firm in the region.\nSeeing the opportunity as the adventure of a life time, he and his wife Melita packed up and moved. While living there, the couple visited the tiny island of Song Saa, itself just a tiny satellite off the Kohn Rong island off the southern tip of Cambodia.\nPhoto: songsaa.com\nThe pair were reportedly the first foreign people ever to set foot on the shores Song Saa, immediately falling in love with the island. The locals, spotting the opportunity to get off the island and explore the world themselves, arranged with the government to sell the island to the couple.\nAll of a sudden, the Hunters found themselves $15,000 (\u00a39815) lighter, but with their very own island to call home.\nHowever, they didn\u2019t just sit around on hammocks all day, drinking coconut water and eventually going mad enough to befriend a volley ball. No, Mrs Hunter set about designing an exclusive get-away around the island. An experienced property designer, and with her husband\u2019s background in development, they set about making the dream come true.\nWhere once stood a humble fishing island, is a stunning slice of paradise. Now a fully fledged holiday resort, the island boasts seven luxury villas where visitors can go and do all manner of painfully middle class looking activities, like yoga in white linen as the sun sets in the background, and smearing \u00a380 worth of seaweed on their face in the name of vanity.\nThe Hunters have proved that, with a bit of luck, and a big old slice of seeing opportunity when it presents itself, the adventure of a life time can become a lifetime of adventure.\nHowever, before you book flights, it\u2019s worth noting that a spell on the island start at a whopping \u00a3568, which is a little heftier than that youth hostel in Berlin where somebody took a shit in the shower.\nOf course, there will be people out there who make the argument that the most beautiful thing to have done would to leave the island alone completely. The couple, however, have ensured that the resort acts in a responsible and sustainable way, putting the safety of the islands ecology high on their priority list right from the start.\nSteps include creating Cambodia\u2019s first ever marine reserve, and the setting up of centre where people can go to undergo a program, learning about sustainability and ecology.\n23 Signs That Prove You\u2019re A Born Adventurer, Despite Living In The City\nWhy Are Thousands of Japanese Women Falling In Love With A Gorilla?\nMost gorillas are happy playing in a tyre, but this Silverback is playing the field...\nTime To Panic?

        "raw_content": "A mountain getaway in Victoria\nFor scenic mountain landscapes, bushwalks, or just for those who want to escape the city life, relax and have nature just outside your doorstep, the Grampians in Victoria is a lovely spot to go to and get away from it all.\nIt\u2019s a pretty long drive from Melbourne CBD (around 3-4 hours), so if you do decide to go here, it\u2019s best to stay a minimum of one day overnight. For our case we stayed for 3 days and 2 nights in Grampians.\nHalls Gap is the town located right at the heart of the Grampians national park. There you will find the Visitor Information centre so you can get some advice on which places to go to, and there are a couple of small shops that you can go to eat.\nThere are different types of accommodations available nearby, for us we stayed at Kookaburra Motor lodge..\nThe rooms are clean and comfy and wifi internet access is provided.\nBest part is you can go out to the patio and see all of this..\nWe even saw kangaroos hopping back and forth in the fields just in front of us.\nThere are several lookout points around the park with varying degrees of difficulty.\nThe easy ones that are just a short walk from the carpark are Boroka lookout\nand in the Reed lookout, it\u2019s just a short walk to reach the Balconies\nAnother nice walk is the one to McKenzie Falls, around 30 minutes return to get this view..\nWe also did some treks which are around an hour to 2 hours long return.\nThe walk starting at Mt. William carpark is around 45 minutes return.. Another place with lots of good views along the way.\nAnother one is Hollow Mountains, which is around 2 hours return.\nAnd the longest one we did.. the walk to the Pinnacle which is 2 hours return.\nDespite how LOOONG it was (2.1 km one way), when it was finished I found that I enjoyed this walk because of the different views I got along the way\nThe end point.. THE PINNACLE!!! Words cannot express the relief I felt to see the end.\nThese are just a few of the walks available in the area.. there are a lot wayyy harder than what we did that would require you to camp for a day or two to finish the whole trek. We went in March, so weather wise it was pretty good and we got a lot of sunlight, but if you could it would be better to go in springtime around October, that\u2019s when all the flowers are in bloom and just adds more color to the sceneries..\nIf you\u2019re interested and want more information, go to this website http://www.visitvictoria.com/Regions/Grampians.aspx\nThis entry was posted in Australia, World Travel and tagged australia, balconies, boroka lookout, bushwalk, Grampians, mckenzie falls, melbourne, mountains, nature, outdoors, pinnacle, travel, trek, vacation, victoria by msozpinay.

        "raw_content": "How many companies, so many opinions about how to look like a candidate for a particular position. However, there are a number not a subjective error while making a resume, which is very desirable to avoid, if you want to about yourself and your skills due opinion.\nIn this article I would like to highlight those moments which involuntarily pay attention, looking at the next resume. Not all of them are critical, but lack of them can significantly improve a first impression.\nProblem. I must say that it\u2019s not about the indentation and headers. Recently requirements resume writing has changed a lot, so seeing the old format where you want to go with a candidate all his life, starting with schools and ending with knowledge of word and other office programs before see key information regarding the experience, I want to close the file. And this is a view of a recruiter. And imagine if your resume opens the right technical specialist, which, in principle, similar narration is not interesting and your own time is worth its weight in gold.\nCouncil. Do not hide your skill\u2019s how the wizard hid the needle in the egg, in a duck, which was in a hare\u2026. Well, you understand, about what speech. Your experience is that you must specify a priority, that the preparation of this summary section should pay 99% effort and attention.\nProblem. Immediately turn to knowledge of technology and experience. Have no idea who first introduced a similar template, but I think he got a boner every time another HR summary opens with a \u201cbouquet\u201d:\nPHP \u2014 expert, using now, 5 years of experience.\nHTML/CSS expert, 8 years of experience.\nJavaScript, AJAX, JQuery \u2014 expert, using now, 5 years of experience.\nIn the best case, such list shall contain a list of company names or projects. Seriously? And that\u2019s all you want to say about your experience and knowledge of the technology?\nCouncil. Specify the list of technologies that you own (list or dividing by categories), attach the link to GitHub, describe the projects you worked on and what was your role directly in their implementation. If you have a project that you are proud of, don\u2019t forget to mention it. It\u2019s easy, but many karma points adds up, believe me.\nIn describing your experience, use the first last job, and it will smoothly move to the first, and not Vice versa. Assessing your candidacy, it is important to see at what level you are now. What middle being strong at the back-end at the moment you 2 years ago, started their career from the layout only will be for you plus. At the same time, imagine how it looks summary sent to Middle PHP Developer opening that I see:\nAnd intrigue\u2026 to scroll the list further in the hope of seeing the experience in the right direction or are you just randomly sent my CV, as often happens: \u201cMaybe useful\u201d.\nProblem. Monotonous lists of personal qualities. Can\u2019t say that the moment is critical, however, seeing that Peter was motivated, quick learner, proactive and able to work under pressure, exactly as Bob, George, nick, who sent my resume to him, one gets the feeling that somewhere nearby there is a pipeline that churns out VAS, to Sing, Since with the right level of stress and sends them to the developer.\nCouncil. If you have already decided to fill out additional information and personal qualities, that make sure he was really about you and useful to the employer. Honestly, how proactive you breed hamsters, cross stitching or love to go to theater, few people interested. Such information can be told at the interview if you visit it, or when meeting with the staff when applying for a job. Better specify what you are willing to travel, if it is so, because the opportunity to work with the customer on-site will definitely be a plus, whether you are considering the opportunity to work overtime in case of urgent need, what books (profile) you have read, whether the skills of team work, etc. this information say about you much more for the customer than \u201ccommunication skills, poise and punctuality\u201d.\nOther stop factors\n\u2014 Do not send a resume in Word format. Of course, in the negative it will not play, but the PDF format is much more solid and preferable, especially since the converters are free and the conversion takes no more than 30 seconds.\n\u2014 Don\u2019t throw a resume without a cover letter. Again, this point is not critical, but would be a plus if you are in a couple of sentences, describe what position and why you want to work at a specific company.\n\u2014 Don\u2019t write a summary essays on free topic. The artistic format of the narrative of the life of the protagonist is only interested in literature.\n\u2014 Don\u2019t be part of the summary part in English. This is an extremely rare phenomenon, but when I saw this in the second summary, then decided just in case to add to the list. Are you undecided? Or decided to show in practice the knowledge of both languages? As practice shows, copy-paste also needs to be able. If you wrote the bulk of the summary, the more technical, writing of the section \u201cPersonal qualities\u201d in English are unlikely to be counted in dignity.\n\u2014 And finally, do not respond to vacancy, not attaching a resume. Maybe if your name is bill gates, it is optional, but in other cases, the presence of the summary a little.\nHow to write a good summary\n\u201cCap\u201d summary. Specify here the name, surname, date of birth and basic contact information. This information should always be at hand, not to look for her, if necessary, throughout the document.\nIf you decided to add in summary your picture, make sure it meets the purpose. Express photo in Hawaiian shorts or over a dining table for social networks.\nExperience. Indicate the position for which you are applying, technology owned, and continue to experience. Here, it is desirable to discard modesty and tell the details and merits of their relevant achievements. Provide General information about the projects, technologies used and your role directly in the implementation: what, what made, what problems were solved.\nAs mentioned above, the move from the last job to the first, and not Vice versa. If you are a novice developer and the track record is small, it is better to specify what is, without going into details about all the companies in which you were able to work for their lives if they have no relationship to programming.\nIn fact, the experience with a clear conscience, you can finish the summary, but continue on.\nAn example of your code. If you have a profile on GitHub, the link to it is also worth pointing out is paramount. Believe me, the technician who reads the summary, wants to see your code, how you name variables, observe the coding style, leave \u201cfunny\u201d comments etc.\nPerhaps, this is the maximum information that may be necessary for the employer in the form of a summary to make the decision to invite you for an interview. Next is the formation of an image falls on your shoulders, not a piece of paper.\nThe optimal size of the resume to 1-2 pages. Of course, it is much easier to describe all their merits in 10 volumes, but in the case of summary its volume is not directly proportional to your qualifications, so focus on the most important and necessary.\nPerhaps to seasoned these tips will seem hackneyed truths, but I hope someone will help to avoid typical mistakes or make your first summary.",

        "title": "Nats320 -- A Washington Nationals Blog: Aaron Thompson--Refreshing--Gets It",
        "raw_content": "The day before the spring training games began for Our Washington Nationals, Aaron Thompson was leaving the practice fields in Viera, Florida, basically unnoticed by fans waiting for autographs from other players in camp. As he walked by, The African Queen and I said hello and it led to as refreshing of a conversation with a young man that you could have. Acquired last July from The Florida Marlins for Nick Johnson--the 23-year old lefty possesses a fastball that reaches the low 90's and a deceptive change-up which he showed off fashionably yesterday at Space Coast Stadium against The New York Mets. Aaron Thompson was the best pitcher on the mound during Our Washington Nationals Spring Home Opener. We were not surprised--after Number 65 in your scorecard turned out to be one of the most unexpectedly good chats this spring on Nats320.\nThompson just gets it.\nAnd Aaron credits The Marlins for bringing him this far.\n\u201cComing over from The Marlins, they\u2019ve always taken great pride in developing their pitchers and getting them ready for the big leagues. That\u2019s what I joked about with some of my coordinators with The Marlins. They (Florida) had put in all the work and now, The Nationals, are going to get the benefit. I believe The Marlins have always been good at that (developing pitching). But when you look around at this staff, there are a few Marlins here too. It is extremely important to soak up all you can wherever you are until you find somebody that is going to give you an opportunity--like hopefully The Nationals will do for me.\u201d\nWith The Marlins being so successful in developing pitching--would that also be a lost opportunity for you there? (Nats320)\n\u201cNo, not for me. I think it is a lost opportunity for them. They spent all the money. They spent all the time to teach me how to be a professional. And how to have success in professional baseball. Unfortunately, that\u2019s just a part of the game going from one team to another. Now since I am here (in Washington), I think it\u2019s pretty cool I may have a leg up on some of these guys just because I have seen more of the (minor) leagues. Some of these guys have only been in The Nationals Organization--and not that they are missing anything--but the more you can soak up from more people--I think the better off you will be.\u201d\nYou have a different way of looking at things. (Nats320)\n\u201cWell, understand, it\u2019s humbling too. Coming over from a team that had a lot of younger guys (Marlins) who are developing and establishing themselves, then you come into this clubhouse--Adam Dunn\u2019s been around the league for a long time. Eddie Guardado's been around the leagues for a long time. Shawn Estes--all these guys. It\u2019s neat to be around them, but it\u2019s also kind of humbling. I have to remember, as excited as I am, I need to shut up and listen. (laughing) They don\u2019t talk much. I do a lot of the talking. But when they do, you know it\u2019s something valuable you need to remember.\u201d\n\u201cI also believe the Nationals do that by design (veteran presence). All they talked about this off-season was getting veterans in here who could teach us how to be big leaguers. I have zero big league time and I want 10 years--plus. And the only way to do that is to learn from guys who have 10 years of experience, or are around putting in those many years. And see how they did it because it\u2019s not a secret. Some guys say there is a method to doing it. And to a \u2018t\u2019, it may not be exactly what I need to do--but it worked for them so there must be something to check out and take home.\u201d\nYou have a really good attitude--confidence too. Where do you see yourself moving up in this organization then? (Nats320)\n\u201cI am really blindfolded right now. Until the games start going, it\u2019s really going to be tough for me to see where I stand. The more opportunities they give me to throw against big league hitters, the better I will feel about what they are considering for me. But that\u2019s totally up to them, and wherever I fall, I will be grateful to be here. You see a lot of guys this time of year lose their uniforms. And fortunately, I don\u2019t think I am in that position as far as my career ending here. But, sometimes it feels like your career is ending when they send you back down to the minor leagues. (all of us busting out laughing--throwing up his hands) You feel like you are back to where you were before.\u201d\nHas Mike Rizzo or Bob Boone said anything to you? (Nats320)\n\u201cHonestly, I haven\u2019t talked to them much since I was traded here. I think they go get their players and once we are in the system--it\u2019s time for them to let all their people (coordinators, minor league coaches) they have hired to train us and get us ready to do our jobs--hopefully in the big leagues.\u201d\nAaron Thompson's performance against The New York Mets yesterday was the most refreshing pitching aspect of the game for Our Washington Nationals. A starting reference point in his bid to be noticed. As the spring training games continue, Aaron Thompson might be one of the most interesting young pitchers not named Strasburg and Storen to watch. He gets the team approach to development. But does that confidence help him reach the big leagues in 2010?\nHis opening day of spring work on the mound certainly raised some eyebrows.\nThompson Photo Copyrighted--Nats320--All Rights Reserved",

Farrell said he was worried about Buchholz\u2019s left knee, which the manager said was hyperextended on a pitch after the right-hander ran the bases at the National League park, in addition to Buchholz\u2019s severe weight loss in the Memorial Day heat.\n\u201cHe lost seven pounds (Monday), which for Clay is unheard of,\u201d Farrell said. \u201cIt\u2019s the first time he\u2019s dealing with the heat and humidity this year. We\u2019re in May. It\u2019s not really all that hot yet, but it\u2019s different than the weather we\u2019ve been involved in. That\u2019s not going to be used as an excuse, it\u2019s just a condition that everyone\u2019s playing in here.\u201d\nBuchholz was roughed up for six runs on four hits and eight walks in three innings before the Red Sox rallied for an 8-6 win over the Braves. He has a 2-4 record with a 7.02 earned run average on the season, and he is winless in his last four starts.\n\u201cWe met with him a little while ago,\u201d Farrell said. \u201cWe\u2019re undetermined with his spot coming up in another four days. We\u2019ve got to get through (Wednesday\u2019s) bullpen. After he ran the bases (Monday), there was a pitch where his landing leg gave out, so we\u2019ve got to make sure that he gets through his bullpen (Wednesday) that that knee, where he felt like it was a little hyperextended, doesn\u2019t persist or show any further soreness. So that\u2019s where we are right now with Clay.\u201d\nDepending on the outcome of the bullpen, Farrell said, the team will determine if Buchholz can take the ball. Farrell added that the knee and the weather should not be used as a crutch as the Red Sox continue to evaluate what is wrong with their valued starter, who was one of the best pitchers in baseball for the first several months last season.\n\u201cThat doesn\u2019t lead into the eight walks or anything like that, but we\u2019ve got to make sure he feels OK once he gets through his bullpen tomorrow, to keep going,\u201d Farrell said. \u201cWe\u2019re not going to put him at any further risk injury-wise.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Americans and Iranians look at their shared history through different lenses, focusing on different events and accentuating different grievances. For many Iranians, the 1953 overthrow of their elected prime minister, Mohammad Mossadegh, is the defining moment in the relationship. That coup d\u2019etat, which was engineered by U.S. officials, led to the installation of Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, whose government was brutal in its repression of political opposition and generally unresponsive to human development among its subjects, even as it was seen to be modernizing by the West. America\u2019s support for the Shah over more than a quarter of a century is, in turn, often cited by Iranians of a wide-range of ideologies as proof that U.S. aims are not in the interest of Iran. Furthering this mistrust, American backing for Iraq during the Iran-Iraq war still resonates among young Iranians and the Ahmadinejad generation of government officials. Finally, the 2003 U.S. invasion of Iraq keeps these grievances alive among young and old alike.\nBy contrast, many Americans look at Iran against the backdrop of the 1979 storming of the U.S. embassy in Tehran and the subsequent 444-day captivity of 66 American diplomats and supporting staff. For many Americans that ordeal marked their first awareness of religiously justified anti-American politics in the Muslim world.\nThe symmetry of countervailing grievance between Americans and Iranians is repeated at the level of foreign policy: U.S. support for Israel, Egypt, and Saudi Arabia, Iran\u2019s main power rivals in the region, is seen as hostile by the Iranian state, while Iranian support for Hezbollah in Lebanon and for Hamas in the Palestinian territories is viewed by the American state as a significant threat to vital U.S. interests in Israel. With the U.S. buildup of naval forces in the Persian Gulf and the recent detention of members of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard in northern Iraq, tensions have mounted further. The standoff between the two countries threatens both U.S. national interests and global peace and security.\nAs U.S. influence in the Middle East is challenged violently in Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, and the Levant, Iran\u2019s influence has grown, sometimes as a stabilizing force, as in its development aid to western Afghanistan, and sometimes as a destabilizing one, as in Lebanon and the Palestinian territories and, the U.S. government increasingly asserts, Iraq. But allowing deepening security disagreements to preclude any further dialogue between the two countries is a mistake. The political differences between the two countries need to be addressed, and a framework for negotiation that both countries can live with needs to be constructed.\nThis is not an impossible task. Paradoxically, the United States and Iran have been growing closer to each other in several areas: Iranian trade with the U.S. via third parties has increased steadily since the revolution; after a major drop in student visas in 2001 and 2002, the number of Iranian students going to America to study has gone back up; and, significantly, the United States has maintained steady, mediated contacts with Iranian government officials, which were instrumental in coordinating U.S. contacts with Afghanistan\u2019s Northern Alliance prior to the defeat of Afghanistan\u2019s Taliban regime in late 2001.\nIn order to formulate a serious and successful foreign policy toward Iran, Americans need information about what Iranians think, believe, and feel about their own society and how it fits into the international system. This report is an attempt to outline from recent on-the-ground interviews and discussions how Iranians view U.S.-Iranian relations and what their aims and goals are, both as individuals and for their country. Our findings are based largely on interviews conducted in Iran, with additional information coming from e-mail exchanges and off-the-record meetings in the U.S., Canada, and Europe with scholars, diplomats, NGOs, international organizations, businesspeople, and journalists, many of whom visit Iran regularly. We have generally not named our interviewees in this report because of concern that publication of their remarks could, in some cases and in unpredictable ways, affect them adversely.\nPrevious: Executive Summary\nNext: Regime-Change Rhetoric Harms Relations and Reforms",

It\u2019s a staple on most restaurant tables these days, and it has inspired chefs to craft innovative dishes.\nIn 1980, Huy Fong Foods founder and owner David Tran relocated to Los Angeles County after five years of making this sauce in Vietnam, continuing his production in this country.\nEnthusiasts won\u2019t want to miss the opportunity to tour Huy Fong Foods in Irwindale, where an in-depth look at production, as well as tasting of samples, is offered. Open only for a few years now, it\u2019s a step up from the company\u2019s beginnings in Chinatown, then the L.A. suburb of Rosemead.\nThe 30-minute tours of the 650,000-square-foot facility are free.\n\u201cYou walk our entire process,\u201d said Sabrina Martinez, a tour guide. \u201cWe run very uniquely. A lot of what we do is in-house.\u201d\nFor groups, it\u2019s recommended to call ahead and schedule a tour, especially during the fall when the chiles are ground into paste and the daily workings of the company are very busy.\nDuring autumn (September through December) only groups of up to 12 can be accommodated while the maximum group size expands to 26 for the rest of the year. But it\u2019s also a fun time to visit.\n\u201cIn grinding season, you get to see it from pepper to sauce,\u201d Martinez said.\nAround 100 million pounds of chile peppers are ground into paste, filling 55-gallon blue drums, before they undergo the production process and are packaged for retail. Visitors can tour the warehouse where the paste is stored and view the bottling process.\nFrom Sept. 12 to Oct. 17, a self-guided open house is held every Saturday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. It features cultural events, like a lion dance on select Saturdays and samples of food products featuring Sriracha, like popcorn, chips and salad croutons.\n\u201cIt\u2019s open to anyone who wants to come out and visit us,\u201d Martinez said. \u201cA lot of times, guests get to meet David Tran, the CEO and master mind of the company.\u201d\nMotorcoaches can park in a dedicated lot for buses that is separate from the visitors\u2019 parking lot.\nFor more information, call 626-286-8328 or visit huyfong.com.\nPrevious articleThe Tides Wharf & Restaurant offers bird\u2019s-eye view of Bodega Bay\nNext articleTulip Time announces entertainment line-up for 2016\nDescend into geology at Lost River Gorge & Boulder Caves\nDiscover premier shopping at Depot Square",

        "title": "State of the Union 2013: Obama's Universal Pre-Kindergarten Plan | The New Republic",
        "raw_content": "Getty Images/AFP/Jure Makovec\nThe Complexities of Obama's Universal Pre-Kindergarten Plan\nThe most important proposal in President Barack Obama's State of the Union address may be one that gets the least attention and, quite possibly, has the least chance of becoming law in the near future: his proposal to create a universal pre-kindergarten program.\nThe idea is pretty simple. American children are guaranteed an education when they turn five and enter kindergarten. Before that, they may or may not have access to what we now call \"pre-school,\" which typically depends on the resources (and sometimes the resourcefulness) of their parents.\nMore affluent families tend to get their kids into decent day cares and nursery schools; less affluent families do not. But poor kids are the ones who need good care the most. Research suggests the first few years and particularly the first two years are critical for the development of intellectual and behavioral skills. Providing low-income kids with access to decent, affordable preschool can help make up for what they're not getting already. It can also help families\u2014not just poor families, but middle-income families\u2014pay for the cost of child care, which can put a real crimp in household budgets.\nThat's the theory, at least. How does it translate into an actual, real-life policy proposal? We don't know just yet: We'll have to wait for Obama to give the full details. But the plan will probably resemble a recent proposal from the Center for American Progress.\nThat proposal actually has several components, including financial assistance to help parents pay for infant and toddler care as well as additional investment in the Early Head Start program. But the biggest component is a proposal to partner with states, matching their investments dollar-for-dollar, with a goal of subsidizing preschool based on income. For children in families with household income below twice the poverty line, or about $46,000 for a family of four, preschool would be free, just like public education. (In case you were wondering, by the way, participation in the program would be strictly voluntary. Nobody is mandating that anybody go to preschool.)\nThe American Progress proposal wouldn't be cheap: It would cost about $10.5 billion a year, according to the paper. That's real money. Then again, plenty of researchers think investments in early childhood pay off\u2014and pay off handsomely\u2014over time. The best-known advocate for this view is James Heckman, the Nobel-winning economist from the University of Chicago. Among those who have made variations on the same argument are Timothy Bartik, of the Upjohn Institute for Employment Research, and Paul Tough, author of How Children Succeed. The common theme in their work is that the right kinds of investments not only reduce poverty; they also improve productivity.\nThe administration knows all about this research: Obama cited a piece of it during the speech, drawing particular attention to studies of Oklahoma's efforts: \"Every dollar we invest in high-quality early education can save more than seven dollars later on\u2014by boosting graduation rates, reducing teen pregnancy, even reducing violent crime,\" he said. \"In states that make it a priority to educate our youngest children, like Georgia or Oklahoma, studies show students grow up more likely to read and do math at grade level, graduate high school, hold a job, and form more stable families of their own.\"\nThe research has its detractors. Among the important questions they ask: Is it possible to replicate the results of model interventions, like the Perry Preschool, on a national scale? (The results of Head Start have been decidedly mixed.) The questions deserve a better answer than I can give right now.\nThe political prospects aren't as grim as you might think, even in this fiscal environment. The idea of more investment in early childhood has attracted bipartisan support recently, particularly at the state level. \"In the past month, a number of GOP governors ... have spoken favorably about the need for greater investments in early childhood education, including Georgia Gov. Nathan Deal,\" says Kris Perry, executive director of the First Five Years Fund. \"The president's policy proposal is something on which Democrats and Republicans clearly agree and should have a broad and diverse coalition of support behind it.\"\nNone of which means a bill will arrive on Obama's desk next week. This kind of project typically takes years of groundwork. But first somebody has to start the conversation, and that's what Obama did tonight.\nState of the Union, Barack Obama, Head Start, Childhood Education, Early Head Start",

        "raw_content": "Man-eating piranha are actually cowards\nDespite their reputations as aggressive blood-thirsty carnivores, piranha schooling behavior is a defensive measure to protect against predators rather than an offensive hunting maneuver, reports new research presented at the Royal Society\u2019s summer science exhibition in London. Piranhas face many predators in their Amazon habitat, including caiman, freshwater dolphins, and giant fish like the pirarucu or arapaima.\nPiranha are popularly believed to form cooperative hunting groups that savagely attack larger animals, including livestock and even humans. The new research shows that instead, schooling seems to serve a defensive purpose.\n\u201cPiranhas have a fierce reputation, but through our research we are finding many of their behavioural choices are driven by their fear of being eaten,\u201d said Anne Magurran of the University of St Andrews in Scotland. \u201cPiranhas face a number of predators and are influenced by the availability of food and cover.\u201d\nMagurran says that piranha are actually omnivorous scavengers which mostly eat fish, plants and insects.\n\u201cOne interesting aspect of our research in Amazonia\u2019s flooded forests has been the seasonal differences in the piranhas\u2019 behaviour,\u201d explained Magurran. \u201cDuring high water levels piranha can find food and protection easily. During the low water season, they are more at risk of attacks from predators such as dolphins and caiman.\u201d\n\u201cWe are showing that piranha schooling behaviour is tuned to the seasonal cycle of predation risk and food availability. We are also examining the changes in an individual piranha\u2019s behaviour throughout its life-cycle, and the way in which these choices influence its chances of breeding and passing genes onto the next generation. Our investigation is giving us new insights into animal decision making in the wild.\u201d\nThe Amazon is Earth\u2019s largest river. The red-bellied piranha, the most notorious kind of dozens of species of piranha, is one of more than 3,000 species of fish found in the Amazon river basin.\nThe piranha\u2019s fearsome reputation has led it to be banned from private ownership in a number of U.S. states.\nAmazon River, Animal Behavior, Animals, Fish, Green, Rivers, Wildlife",

Kaler Elected to National Academy of Engineering\nElection to the NAE is among the highest professional distinctions accorded to an engineer\nSTONY BROOK, NY, February 17, 2010 \u2014 The National Academy of Engineering (NAE) has elected Stony Brook University\u2019s Eric W. Kaler,\nProvost, Senior Vice President for Academic Affairs and Vice President of Brookhaven Affairs, as one of 68 new members and nine foreign associates, announced NAE President Charles M. Vest today.\n\u201cI\u2019m very pleased to see that Eric Kaler\u2019s outstanding body of work has been recognized by the National Academy of Engineering,\u201d said Dr. Samuel L. Stanley, Jr., President, Stony Brook University. \u201cThis formal recognition is a well deserved honor and a testament to Eric\u2019s research and discovery as a distinguished chemical engineer. It is a great honor for him and for Stony Brook University.\u201d\nAccording to the NAE, Dr. Kaler, who is also a professor of engineering and of chemistry at Stony Brook University, was selected for his work on elucidation of structure-function relationships in surfactant systems that has led to novel formulations of complex, self-assembled media.\n\u201cWhat that means.\u201d said Dr. Kaler, \u201cis that I study \u2018complex fluids\u2019 containing many kinds of molecules, including surfactants, polymers, proteins or colloidal particles, either separately or in mixtures. These fluids can be found in numerous commercial products, including pharmaceutical formulations, paints, oil field chemicals, coatings, and foods, and have many practical applications. Our work also points the way to enhanced separation methods, particularly for proteins, that can be used in the biotechnology industry. Additionally, I am interested in policy issues in higher education, particularly around science and math education and globalization.\u201d\nAppointed as the ninth Provost of Stony Brook University in October of 2007, Dr. Kaler received his undergraduate degree from California Institute of Technology in 1978 and his Ph.D. from the University of Minnesota in 1982. Prior to his appointment at Stony Brook, Dr. Kaler served on the faculty of the University of Delaware\u2019s College of Engineering from 1989-2007 where he rose to the rank of Dean in 2000, and served as Elizabeth Inez Kelley Professor of Chemical Engineering from 1998 to 2007. Prior to joining the Delaware faculty, he was an assistant professor and an associate professor of Chemical Engineering at the University of Washington from 1982 to 1989.\nIn 1984, Dr. Kaler was one of the first to receive a Presidential Young Investigator Award from the National Science Foundation. He also received the Curtis W. McGraw Research Award from the American Society of Engineering Education in 1995, the American Chemical Society Award in Colloid or Surface Chemistry in 1998, and distinguished lectureship awards around the world. He is the author or co-author of one edited book, over 200 papers, and holds 10 U.S. patents. His research has been cited over 8,000 times.\nDr. Kaler\u2019s member class of the National Academy of Engineering includes distinguished colleagues from such institutions as Carnegie Mellon University, Harvard, Cornell, Princeton, MIT, and the University of California, Berkeley. The Induction Ceremony, a formal inauguration of new Members and Foreign Associates into the Academy, will be held on October 3 during the NAE Annual Meeting in Washington D.C.",

The updated SIS rules will include new categories of alerts, closing any potential gaps and addressing new needs.\nValentin Radev, Bulgarian minister of interior.\nThe draft regulations address potential gaps and introduce several essential changes to the current system on the types of alert entered.\nThey will contribute to strengthen the fight against terrorism and serious crime, ensuring a high level of security in the EU, and will help migration management.\nAlert categories\nThe draft regulations introduce additional categories of alerts to the system:\nalerts issued for the purpose of inquiry checks, an intermediary step between discreet checks and specific checks, which allows for interviews of individuals.\nalerts on unknown suspects or wanted persons, which provide for the introduction into the SIS of fingerprints or palm prints discovered at the scenes of serious crimes or terrorist offences and which are considered to belong to a perpetrator.\npreventive alerts for children at risk of parental abduction, as well as children and vulnerable persons who need to be prevented from travelling for their own protection (for example, where travel might lead to the risk of forced marriage, female genital mutilation, trafficking of human beings).\nalerts for the purpose of return, which require the introduction of an alert in relation to return decisions issued to illegally staying third-country nationals, thus improving exchange of information in relation to return decisions.\nThey also expand the list of objects for which alerts can be issued, to include, among other, false documents and high-value identifiable objects , as well as IT equipment.In addition, the introduction of alerts in the SIS as regards entry bans for third-country nationals becomes compulsory.\nThe draft regulations introduce the possibility of using facial images for identification purposes, in particular to ensure consistency in border control procedures. It also allows for the inclusion of a DNA profile to facilitate the identification of missing persons in cases where fingerprint data, photographs or facial images are not available or not suitable for identification.\nEuropol will be able to access all categories of data in the SIS and to exchange supplementary information with Member States SIRENE Bureaux. In addition, member states must inform Europol of any hits when a person is sought in relation to a terrorist offence. This will allow Europol\u2019s European Counter Terrorism Centre to check if there is any additional contextual information available in Europol\u2019s databases.For the purposes set out in its mandate, the new European Border and Coast Guard Agency will also have access to the alert categories in SIS.\nThe informal agreement will now be presented to EU ambassadors for confirmation on behalf of the Council. Following this, the regulation will be submitted to the European Parliament for a vote at first reading, and subsequently to the Council for adoption.\nThe Schengen Information System is the most widely used and efficient IT system of the EU in the area of freedom, security and justice. The system contains more than 76 million alerts. In 2017 it was accessed more than 5.1 billion times by member states, triggering more than 240 000 hits on foreign alerts (alerts issued by another country).\nIn December 2016, the European Commission presented a legislative package to improve the SIS from a technical point of view and to respond to the development of certain forms of serious crime, including terrorism.\nPrevious PostPrevious Speech by First Vice-President Frans Timmermans at the European Parliament plenary session on the preparation of the European Council meeting of 28 and 29 June 2018\nNext PostNext Security Union: Commission welcomes agreement on a reinforced Schengen Information System",

        "raw_content": "How is the length of time in custody before Trial relevant to bail?\nHow is the length of\u2026\nR v Boyd [2015] NSWSC 1065\nWhat happened in this matter?\nBoyd was accused of retaliating against the victim in this matter, Mr Wilson-Hore. In the morning of the 22 February 2015, the victim had allegedly committed an aggravated break and enter at Boyd\u2019s residence. The assault on Mr. Wilson-Hore was described as brutal, resulting in serious injuries.\nWhat were the charges?\nBoyd faced charges under ss 33, 35 and 93(c) of the Crimes Act 1900 (NSW) which were allegedly committed when he was on parole for a separate offence for which he was sentenced in 2011. The seriousness of the offences meant that Boyd would be required to \u2018show cause\u2019 why his detention is not justified.\nWhat is the relevant law for a Bail application?\nIn order to seek bail, Boyd needed to \u2018show cause\u2019, in other words, show reasons as to why detention was not justified \u2013 section 16 A of the Bail Act 2013 (NSW). Boyd then had to establish that if there were any bail concerns, they would not amount to an unacceptable risk.\nHow was \u2018cause\u2019 shown?\nThe applicants submitted that Boyd \u2018strenuously\u2019 denied the charges, was presumed innocent and that there would be an extremely lengthy delay between the application and trial. On this last point, Sperling J in R v Cain (2001) was quoted saying \u201cthe prospect that a private citizen who has not been convicted of any offence might be imprisoned for as long as two years pending trial is, absent exceptional circumstances, not consistent with modern concepts of civil rights\u201d.\nFamily circumstances and community support were put forth in support of Bail, the fact that he has four children and is a qualified electrical fitter with excellent employment history and good prospects of obtaining work. He would also be able to continue receiving counselling.\nWhat were the Bail concerns?\nOnce Hamill J accepted that cause was shown, the bail concerns that he addressed where that he would fail to appear, commit another serious offence or endanger the safety of victims, individuals or the community.\nHow were the unacceptable risks addressed by the Court?\nHamill J found that the proposed bail conditions were extremely stringent and when combined with the involvement of the counsellor, would alleviate the risk to such a degree that it would not be unacceptable. Hamill J considered also his community ties, the strength of the prosecution case and also the need to be free for other lawful reasons, mainly caring for his young family.\nWhat was the final verdict on bail?\nHamill J granted Bail and mentioned that a significant factor was the length of time Boyd would have been likely to spend in custody if bail was refused.",

        "title": "Nimble Ape | WebRTC conferences; where do they fit?",
        "raw_content": "WebRTC conferences; where do they fit?\nBack in June of 2014, my friend Billy Chia attended \u201cWebRTC Expo\u201d in Atlanta; afterwards he wrote an article titled Developers, not Dial Tone, basically asking where all the developers were at the event. It was a really interesting article about the lack of developers and the huge number of vendors and telcos at the event, you should read it.\nThis week I attended the \u201cWebRTC Global Summit\u201d in London and spoke on a panel about how people can make the most of WebRTC; with Tsahi, Svein, Andy, Victor and Pamela. It was a real privilege to be on the stage with some of the best minds in WebRTC right now. But I came away from the conference feeling rather odd about the whole thing; a few people asked me what I thought of the conference and I couldn\u2019t really put it into words. After a days consideration, I\u2019ve realised what was causing my odd feeling.\nHere\u2019s the crux of it: WebRTC conferences should not be stand-alone events. The issue is that there are so many different parties interested in WebRTC as a technology, including developers, users, telcos (phone companies) and vendors, to name a few. With such differences in what they\u2019re all looking to get out of the event, it\u2019s no wonder these events feel so \u201cweird\u201d.\nWebRTC conferences should not be stand-alone events\nAt WebRTC Expo last year, there was a lack of developers and so naturally the talks were aimed at the present audience and led to the awkward question \u201cWhere are all the developers?!\u201d. This time round, thanks to the TADHack Mini event the weekend before WebRTC Global Summit, the question about developers vanished. During our Panel Pamela asked the audience what category they fell under; a whopping 75% of the audience classed themselves as developers.\nWas hugely interesting during the panel when @PamelaC_D asked for the breakdown of attendees, 75% of the room developers at #WebRTC summit\n\u2014 Dan Jenkins in \ud83c\uddff\ud83c\udde6 (@dan_jenkins) April 15, 2015\nSo my question is, if the room was/is 75% developers; why have we been listening to telco\u2019s and talking about #IMS for the past day? #WebRTC\nSo going back to my declaration that WebRTC conferences shouldn\u2019t be stand alone events; as a Web or Mobile developer would you go to an event to listen to subjects like LMS and RCS? No? You don\u2019t know what those are I hear you say? Well yes, it\u2019s just the same from a telco point of view - they\u2019re looking for how they can utilise this technology; not what the latest developments are in Chrome and Firefox.\nWhile on the panel, I said something along the lines of \u201cIt\u2019s a Web technology, if telcos want to be part of it, they need to get on with it and do things the web way\u201d; a sentiment I firmly believe. But on the other hand, we have Web conferences going on all around the world with zero WebRTC content in them. I expect it\u2019s probably the case with other arenas too.\nThis is why we have these mish-mashed conferences run by people like Informa and TMC - no-one else will run the WebRTC topic in their respective arenas and people are crying out for more WebRTC content and so they give people \u201cwhat they want\u201d; a conference about WebRTC, where the end result just frustrates people.\nIt\u2019s a Web technology, if telcos want to be part of it, they need to get on with it and do things the web way.\nI\u2019m used to attending open-source conferences that are run for the love of the topic; and if there\u2019s a small profit at the end of the event, organisers are usually happy - I LOVE these types of events; they are usually the best kind. Businesses like Informa and TMC operate solely around conferences, that\u2019s how they make money and pay their employees - so it\u2019s no surprise that big vendor sponsors get two or three talks over the course of a two day conference.\nA great example of a great event is the Kranky Geek event that happened on the second day of WebRTC Global Summit in the afternoon. The room was packed, leaving very few still at the main WebRTC Global Summit event. Kranky Geek is a developer oriented event, giving developers what they want to hear.\nThe room was packed, leaving very few still at the main WebRTC Global Summit event.\nI argue that athough Billy\u2019s article was right in the sense that there were no developers at a WebRTC event, it didn\u2019t dive into the reason for it; it\u2019s not the fault of these events in the slightest, they are merely filling a gap in the market the best they can in a way that makes a profit. The reason these events happen in the first place is because of the lack of Web conferences willing to give WebRTC a slot in their schedule.\nI\u2019m hoping that now we have big players in the market such as Facebook and Twilio, who are using WebRTC openly, this will only change for the better. Mini conferences like Kranky Geek and Hackathons like TADHack are showing it\u2019s time to pick the topic up again, right now.\nIf you\u2019re looking for some help knowing what you can do with WebRTC, maybe Nimble Ape can give you a hand, contact us and let us know.",

        "raw_content": "WHO SAID LIFE WAS EASY?\nWhen Bill moved in with me fourteen years ago, his possessions moved in too. He had less \u201cstuff\u201d than I did (having left much of it behind in the house now belonging to his second former wife). So it was eventually possible, after some \u201cfriendly\u201d dispute, to make room somewhere or other for what he had brought with him, even if it didn\u2019t exactly \u201cgo\u201d with what was already there.\nHowever, one of his pictures I never had doubts about. I was given no formal religious education and don\u2019t know exactly who Rabbi Hillel was. Moreover, I have no religious beliefs whatsoever. But there was no question in my mind that the saying attributed to the Rabbi which Bill had framed would come with us from Cambridge to Princeton. In fact, it currently hangs just outside the room that serves as my office, where it reminds me of life\u2019s imperatives and conundrums whenever I pass it on my way to and from the computer.\nIn case the words aren\u2019t easy to read in the uploaded photo of the picture, here they are again, writ clear:\n\u201cHillel said, \u2018If I am not for myself, who is for me?\nForthright, isn\u2019t it? You can\u2019t really argue with any of it. If you let yourself be put upon or walked on, you will be. But if you act only for yourself, if you\u2019re a selfish shit \u2014 what kind of person are you?\n\u201cIf not now, when?\u201d may be easier to understand, if not always easy to put into practice, and has occasionally been helpful to a daydreamer like me. But the more you consider that those four words follow the two sentences preceding it, the less forthright and the more cryptic the whole thing becomes. Do what now? Take care of numero uno? Give unto others? Suppose those two directives are in conflict. Then what?\nI offer no suggestions as to what the good Rabbi may have meant, other than that what he meant can mean different things to different people at different times. And probably has. Or different things to the same person at different times. Which is also probably true.\nBut it\u2019s worth thinking about. Especially in connection with one\u2019s own life.\nTags Code of Living, Conundrum, ethics, Life, philosophy, Rabbi Hillel, Thinking\nBLOGGING THROUGH THE MINEFIELDS\nTHE RETURN OF NOW\n16 thoughts on \u201cWHO SAID LIFE WAS EASY?\u201d\nkathybjones\nDo the best you can to make the world a place for everyone. And do it now. And to do that you have to care for self and world simultaneously. But, yes, it does change with time in anyone\u2019s life, especially when the \u201cnow\u201d feels shorter and shorter.\nIt\u2019s the caring for self and the world simultaneously that\u2019s often the tricky part. But you know that already\u2026.\nYes, but profound sayings can be irritating too. Depends on the mood we might be in. As is, is!\n\u2018C\u2019est la vie\u2019 is another dreadful one that people sometimes hang near the front door, near the bell. I usually avoid ringing that bell.\nNothing un-profound I can say to that, so I\u2019d better say nothing.\nP.S. to my first, more ingratiating, reply: Actually \u201cWhat is, is\u201d and \u201cC\u2019est la vie\u201d aren\u2019t profound at all. They\u2019re verbal markers for when people don\u2019t know what else to say to something that\u2019s a downer. The Hillel quote is in another category entirely. However, I give you a pass, Gerard. You did step up to the bat! \ud83d\ude42\nFinding a balance, perhaps? Knowing that we are sharing this world with others\u2026. interesting to ponder, Nina.\nBalance is certainly what comes to mind first. But when applied to real life, that kind of balance is less easy. Take, for instance, the young professional mother of two small children I met at a party given by a son and daughter-in-law. She was a trial lawyer. \u201cHow do you manage?\u201d I asked. \u201cI don\u2019t,\u201d she said. \u201cWhen I\u2019m in the office I\u2019m thinking of the children, and when I\u2019m home, I\u2019m thinking about what\u2019s going on in the office. I\u2019m not a good mother and I\u2019m not a good lawyer.\u201d What is she to do? Give up her very demanding profession till her children are grown? (In other words, achieve \u201cbalance\u201d sequentially? Hillel counsels \u201cIf not now, when?\u201d) Staying home, if she can afford to, would defeat any possibility of developing a meaningful career. Disregard the emotional needs of her children? (What loving mother could do that?) Yes, there is a lot to ponder there, Barbara.\n\ud83d\ude00 Have a lovely day dear. \ud83d\ude42\nThank you, Nomzi. You too.\nI\u2019ve seen that quote often, and for me, it is about balance. Self and community. Van\nWell, Van, that was what I thought too, when I first saw it. But I\u2019m sure it\u2019s not just about putting small checks in envelopes for worthy community causes while going about what\u2019s important to oneself. (And even there, after you send out a few checks, you become inundated with more demands than you can comfortably meet \u2014 and have to begin saying no.) See, for instance, the example I gave to Barbara, above. Or what of the husband in a good-paying job he hates, one that destroys his sense of self-worth, but who has an ill wife and small children to support, and no economic margin that would give him the luxury of trying to find something else more personally satisfying with a salary adequate to support his family? Or what of the wife \u2014 I\u2019m getting to know more and more of these \u2014 whose life has become that of the caretaker of a beloved family member with an eventually fatal but lingering disease? What is she to do \u201cnow?\u201d So it\u2019s really not so easy \u2014 especially, as Kathy Jones observed in the first comment, when the \u201cnow\u201d probably left to you begins to feel shorter and shorter.\nHi Nina, When I think of community, I think of giving your time and energy to something outside your immediate family, mostly volunteer work. I was blessed with an economic situation that allowed me to do that, and it was more rewarding than any employed experience, for so many reasons. I agree on the check writing, having been bombarded with requests myself. It\u2019s certainly challenging for the family caregiver who goes ill, and the sole supporting father with job satisfaction issues. But I\u2019d respectfully disagree with the concerns of the professional woman who decides to have a family. I\u2019ve always felt that it was about timing. I am one of many who worked for many years before starting a family, and took almost a decade off to be with my children. The career path did suffer, but it was so worth it. I\u2019d do it exactly the same way if I had the chance. Just some opinions to share, inspired by your thoughtful comment. Thanks for the conversation. Van\nAs a matter of fact, Van, I made the same choice you did about having children. But I never really liked the work I was doing, and looked forward to being home with my babies. I still feel those thirteen years with them were the happiest in my life, although there were many economic difficulties along the way. And yes, what I did afterwards \u2014 going to law school and practicing law \u2014 did suffer, in that I never had the chance to develop into the same kind of lawyer I might have done if I had begun young and worked right through. But you see, \u201cbeing for me\u201d was the same as \u201cbeing for my children\u201d so it didn\u2019t really come within the purview of the Hillel quotation. Thank you, too, for your equally thoughtful comment.\nLovely to be reminded of this. Thank you.",

        "title": "The Power of Choice",
        "raw_content": "June 17, 2009 by notjustcute Filed Under: Positive Guidance and Social Skills Leave a Comment\nDuring the preschool years, children have a need to assert their independence. Giving them choices when it\u2019s feasible feeds that need, and can stock up points in an account of sorts, to draw upon when choices are not negotiable. When children feel like they already have power, they are less likely to demand it through tantrums.\nThink of the ways you can invite children to make their own choices. \u201cWhich barrette do you want to wear?\u201d \u201cWhich center do you want to explore?\u201d \u201cDo you want 1, 2, or 3 apple slices?\u201d Be careful when you\u2019re phrasing the choice, to offer only those scenarios you are truly willing to accept. Don\u2019t ask, \u201cWhich shoes do you want to wear?\u201d if you are not willing to let him wear his plastic rain boots. Narrow down to only acceptable choices, two or three, therby giving him the choice of suitable options. Few things incur the wrath of a child like offering a choice, only to take it back.\nAllowing children to feel that sense of power that comes from making their own decisions can also diffuse a situation where they may feel powerless. Instead of having a fight over whether or not your child will get dressed, allow your child to choose her own clothes if she can do so in a timely manner. If she chooses not to, her clothes will be chosen for her. Most children will want to assert their power of choice. Giving them an appropriate opportunity to choose can divert their attention from situations where there is no choice. Think about the areas where you are willing to let your children take the wheel and make the choices, and also where you are not. Wearing pants to school may not be negotiable, but your child could choose which pair to wear.\nBe careful not to offer choices where there is none. When I did my 6th grade student teaching, I had a supervising teacher who pointed out my tendency to follow up a reprimand with \u201cOK?\u201d. \u201cYou\u2019ll be staying after class for 10 minutes, OK?\u201d \u201cYou\u2019ll need to move to that seat, OK?\u201d To me it was rhetorical, but my teacher pointed out that to a child, I was offering a choice I wasn\u2019t really willing to let them make. What I meant to say, and learned to say, was \u201cDo you understand?\u201d\nThere are other ways we unintentionally offer null choices. Have you ever practiced a skill with a child and said, \u201cDo you want to do it again?\u201d When you really meant, \u201cLet\u2019s do it again!\u201d Or how about, \u201cDo you want to come inside?\u201d meaning, \u201cIt\u2019s time to go in now.\u201d Then there\u2019s always, \u201cWhy don\u2019t you finish up your dinner and then we\u2019ll have dessert?\u201d If you wonder why children argue these points, it\u2019s because our wording has told them it\u2019s negotiable!\nGiving children choices in small things, and allowing them to experience the consequences, good and bad, gives them the necessary experience to make much bigger decisions in the future. When leaving their grandparents\u2019 house on a cool night recently, our boys had the choice of whether or not to put their jackets on before the short drive. One son chose not to wear his jacket. From the sounds in the back seat, he had a chilly 5 minute drive. The next time he was given that choice, he was quick to put his jacket on.\nExperiencing that kind of undesirable consequence doesn\u2019t just teach children specific lessons, like \u201cput your jacket on when it\u2019s cold out\u201d, but gives them experience with decision-making ,and an understanding that their choices have consequences attached. They begin to learn that in a cause and effect world, they will not be rescued from the effects they have caused. This is a valuable lesson, and one that, sadly, too many people reach adulthood without learning. We owe more to the children we love and teach!\nTop photo provided by Ben Earwicker.\nthehappylainy says:\noo what a great artice! I have a 3-year old. I always give him choices like, \u201cWhat color do you want?\u201d \u201cWhat kind of pasta do you want for dinner?\u201d \u201cWhich jamies u want to wear.\u201d People tell me giving them choices are over encouraging their independence. But I ignored them because I respect the decisions of my child. But now I know that they can help discourage tantrums! I guess I am a good mommy \ud83d\ude42\n[\u2026] power forcefully, through aggression or a meltdown.

Are you unable to achieve the flat, toned stomach you desire\u2014regardless of how much you diet and exercise? If any of this applies to you, you may be a perfect candidate for an abdominoplasty.\nAbdominoplasties are plastic surgery procedures in which extra skin and fat are removed from your midsection, the abdominal muscle is repaired if torn or split, and your belly button is given a tighter shape. More commonly this type of cosmetic surgery is known as a tummy tuck. It is popular among men and women, young and old. It is never too late to achieve the body shape you desire, but sometimes all the self-discipline with grueling diets and workouts is not enough. Our experienced board-certified plastic surgeon at NuBody Concepts would love to help you get to the body of your dreams with an abdominoplasty surgery.\nReasons for Having an Abdominoplasty\nThere are many reasons why an abdominoplasty might be the right cosmetic surgery procedure for you. Even though you may be in good physical shape, maintain a healthy diet, and exercise regularly, you may be unhappy with extra fat and skin around your midsection. This can have many reasons.\nAging and Loss of Skin Elasticity\nOne big reason why our tummies don\u2019t look the same at 40 as they looked at 20 is that over time our skin loses elasticity. Even if you maintain a slim figure throughout your adult life, your skin ages and loses its ability to stretch and shrink back as needed. If you find that you have a stubborn pouch of excess skin on your belly, it might be time for a tummy tuck.\nSubstantial Weight Loss\nOur skin has the amazing ability to expand and shrink as needed, but it is not unlimited. If your body has undergone substantial weight gain followed by weight loss, you may find yourself with too much skin around your midriff. No matter what you do, this extra skin will keep you from achieving a flat stomach. This can be addressed with an abdominoplasty.\nThe changes wrought on your body during pregnancy, childbirth, and breastfeeding are undeniable. Not only is it hard to lose the extra fat you might have put on, you may even have structural damage in your abdominal muscles. This can cause a bulge on your tummy that\u2019s impossible to get rid of. Abdominoplasty surgery to repair the split or torn muscle and tighten the skin may be the only solution.\nWe want to help you look and feel your best through minimally-invasive, innovative cosmetic surgery. Our plastic surgery team has a combined experience of more than 20 years and is dedicated to creating lasting and beautiful results for our patients. Our surgeon is not only certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery but also holds a second certification by the American Board of Otolaryngology.\nContact us to set up a consultation at the NuBody Concepts location nearest you to learn more about our abdominoplasty procedure and to meet our plastic surgery team. We look forward to helping you achieve the body you\u2019ve always wanted.",

        "raw_content": "GLAVINE WILL REST EASIER AFTER NO. 300\nTHE first 299 have been the eas iest for Tom Glavine.\nGlavine enjoyed a 6-0 lead over the Pirates last night and was not going to let this win get away, like he did in the Mets\u2019 13-9 victory over the Dodgers last Thursday. Last night, Glavine faced his share of trouble but pitched well enough to win.\nIn the first inning, Glavine got Xavier Nady to hit into a double play after walking the bases loaded in the first and he overcame Jason Bay\u2019s two-run homer that made it 6-3 in the fifth.\n\u201cThere are moments you have to persevere when you don\u2019t have your best stuff,\u201d Glavine said, when asked for the biggest factor in his career success. \u201cIt\u2019s not the most talented guy who wins 300 games. Otherwise, there would be a lot more.\u201d\nGlavine gave up eight hits over six innings in a 6-3 win that put him one away from membership in the most exclusive and meaningful pitching club. Considering the evolution of the almighty pitch count, the 23rd member might just be the last.\n\u201cI always felt Randy [Johnson, at 284] would do it, but based on [yesterday\u2019s disclosure he may have to retire] that\u2019s more of question mark,\u201d Glavine said. \u201cBut it\u2019s hard for me to believe a 300-game winner will never happen again.\n\u201cNobody looked at me 20 years ago. I\u2019m sure there\u2019s somebody out there not on the radar screen yet.\u201d\nAfter Johnson, Mike Mussina (244) is the closest of the seven active pitchers with more than 200, followed by David Wells (235), Jamie Moyer (224), Curt Schilling (213) and Kenny Rogers (210). Pedro Martinez is the youngest of at age 35 and, with 206 victories, the farthest away.\nHey, if it were supposed to be easy to win 300 games, Nino Espinosa would have done it. After struggling in two straight starts, now comes what might be the hardest one of all for Glavine Tuesday night in Milwaukee, Sunday night in Chicago, or back at Shea Stadium against Florida.\nWillie Randolph, a no-fun shtunk of historical proportions, said he doesn\u2019t feel his team, though happy for Glavine, is really excited about taking part in one of the greatest milestones in the game.\nMaybe Bud Selig, who now has an excuse in his hometown to dump Barry Bonds Tuesday night, has had some pressure removed. But as it only rises for Glavine, his teammates can\u2019t help but feel it, too.\n\u201cI liken it to [winning the clinching Game 6] of the World Series [with a one-hitter] in 1995,\u201d Glavine said. \u201cYou try to keep the pressure in check and focus.\n\u201cIt will be easier to deal with if I\u2019m doing what I would like to do as a pitcher. Tonight, keeping emotions in check was a struggle because I wasn\u2019t as sure.\u201d\nAccording to the Elias Sports Bureau, a faded Early Wynn needed eight tries to get to 300, where he stopped, happily. Phil Niekro reached 300 on the fifth try, Roger Clemens on his fourth and Greg Maddux, Don Sutton, and Nolan Ryan on their second.\nOf the last six guys to reach 300, only Tom Seaver nailed it on the first attempt.\n\u201cThe first thing I think about is I have a whole lot of stuff to start planning,\u201d Glavine said. \u201cWho is going to go, how I\u2019m going to get them there.\n\u201cBeyond that, it\u2019s the same way I have felt all the way. I\u2019m proud of the company I\u2019m being discussed with. But I\u2019m not there yet and don\u2019t think I can fully appreciate it until I am. You just want to get to the point where it happens and you can put your arms around it.\u201d\nThat\u2019s why no one ever has stopped at 299.\nAWARDS WEDNESDAY: A-ROD, UTLEY STILL LEAD",

Though their new crime drama, The Kitchen, isn\u2019t slated for theatrical release until late next year, fans are excited for this new step in their careers. Check out these pics to see their acting transformations.\nThe film, a DC Entertainment and New Line cinema production, is based on the 2014 comic book series by the same name. The series is set in the 1970s and Tiffany and Melissa have embodied '70s fashion to a t. They both have their hair styled so it's fluffy and feathered. Melissa is draped in earth tones and Tiffany has on a patterned blazer. They've nailed it.\nThe Kitchen centers around the Hell\u2019s Kitchen neighborhood that is firmly in the nefarious clutches of a group of mobsters. When these mobsters are thrown in prison, their wives join together and form a new regime.\nThough Melissa is all smiles in this picture, her new role will be a change from what fans are used to. This film is filled with female anti-heroes and Tiffany and Melissa will play two of them. It\u2019s a welcome twist on the traditional mob movie.\nThis film will also mark the directorial debut of Andrea Berloff. In 2015, Berloff helped co-write Academy Award-nominated biopic Straight Outta Compton.\nAre you excited to watch Tiffany and Melissa make the shift from comedy to drama?

        "raw_content": "How to Choose the Best MBA Degree\n\u00bb MBA Article Guide \u00bb How to Choose the Best MBA Degree\nIf you want to complete an MBA degree, you have a lot of things to think about. There are universities all over the world that you could enroll with, and they offer different curricula, concentrations, delivery models, and more. Hence, you need to know how to choose an MBA degree that is right for you. Luckily, it is a relatively simple nine step process. Let\u2019s take a look.\nWhy Are You Thinking Of An MBA?\nYou need to come up with at least three reasons as to why you would choose to enroll in an MBA. Some valid reasons include:\nA complete career change\nA change of function or industry\nAn opportunity to smash the glass ceiling\nYou also need to think about location, because you will have to start to build a network with local businesses, alumni, faculty, and fellow students. Why you want to study an MBA will also determine where you want to study an MBA, and this may even mean having to learn a new language. Completing an MBA usually means that you have to interrupt your career for a period of time, often two years, so you do have to make sure that you make this decision based on facts and good information.\nIf you want to make a complete career change, then it is very important that you go to a top MBA school. This is because you will rarely get accepted to a senior position without any industry experience, unless your degree program is so good that it matches work experience. Top MBA schools have very stringent selection criteria, so it is hard to get into them.\nPerhaps you want to set up your own business. In that case, an MBA could help you to better develop any entrepreneurial skills you already possess. It cannot, however, teach you how to be an entrepreneur unless you already have some entrepreneurial spirit.\nMaybe you want to increase your earnings and have more transferable skills. In that case, the MBA is definitely a good choice. Usually, it increases earnings by around $15,000 per year, and you will be equipped with skills that can be used across different industries. But do be aware of the considerable financial investment you have to make in your degree program first.\nThese are just some examples of considerations to make in terms of why you want to study towards an MBA.\nWhich Business Or Industry Do You Want To Work In?\nIt is nice to dream about places you might want to live in, and jobs you would like to have. There are lots of interesting places all over the world, with different cultures and experiences. You may want to live on a Caribbean island for the rest of your life, but then you do have to have something to do there as well.\nUnfortunately, an MBA may not be entirely suitable for that type of environment. Hence, start by thinking not where you want to live, but where you want to work. Then think about the locations that have that type of work. For instance, if you want to work in fashion, you could consider London, New York, Paris, or Milan. If you like electronics, you could consider Korea, China, or Japan.\nA lot of successful business people knew from a very young age that they wanted to become entrepreneurs. Take people like Richard Branson, for instance, who was quite literally born to create a business (despite not even finishing school!). You need to know what your strengths are, whether they are in general management, finance, entrepreneurship, and so on, and build on those.\nThis can be done by choosing an MBA with a relevant concentration. All MBA programs are general management degrees, which means you have transferable skills. But it is often better to choose a concentration that interests you in particular.\nAreas such as entrepreneurship, environmental technology, information technology, human resources, accounting, finance, hospitality, healthcare management, and so on, are popular options. A specialized MBA will also put you miles ahead of the competition when it comes to applying for jobs.\nThe MBA degree is offered in a range of different formats. The five most popular ones are:\nFull time, which usually takes two years to complete by going to school during weekdays, daytime.\nPart time, which usually takes four years to complete by going to school on evenings and weekends.\nDistance learning, whereby you only attend school a few times during the program, studying the rest online. This usually takes two to three years to complete.\nOnline, where you attend a program mostly online. This type of program can be either 100% online, or you may be required to attend a few on-campus sessions over the duration of the two or three year program. Many experienced professionals prefer to earn their MBA online because they can attend any university they like, and can complete the majority of their studies at home. Students also can continue to work at least on a part time basis, easing the financial strain while in school.\nAccelerated, in which you immerse yourself into the degree program, going to school during weekdays and having fewer school breaks. An accelerated program may take anywhere from 15-18 months to complete.\nThere are many things to take into consideration when deciding how to study. The amount of time you can take off work is probably a main consideration, but also your level of personal responsibilities. If you go for the accelerated format, for instance, you will have almost no time left for personal or leisure activities.\nWhere Should You Go To School?\nBecause the MBA is now such a popular degree, there are literally hundreds of schools to choose from, thousands if you consider the international schools as well. Choosing between these options is a personal decision. Generally, the more prominent the school is, the more stringent the admission criteria are.\nYou should only look for schools that will accept you based on the skills and knowledge you already have. Considering how you will study will also be an important factor. If you study online, for instance, it is much easier to go to an international school. Do make sure that the program, and not just the school, is properly accredited.\nOnline Programs Growing in Reputation, Quality, Affordability\nOnline MBA degrees have been offered for more than 20 years by some schools. In the early years, online MBAs did not have the same reputation for quality as campus-based programs. However, things have shifted markedly in recent years. Today there are more than 90 online MBAs offered. Many top-tier non-profit universities are in that number. A number of our featured online mba programs are featured in America\u2019s Best Online MBA Programs rankings for 2017.\nSome of the most well-regarded online MBA programs according to US News and World Report are:\nNot only can you often earn an online MBA that is high quality: Some programs also offer tuition discounts to online students. For example, the University of North Carolina offers a 13% discount for online MBA students, and at Auburn, the online tuition is only $27,900, compared to $65,500 for the campus program.\nWhat About Return On Investment?\nCompleting an MBA is an expensive venture. You may receive some support from your employer, but it is very rare to be eligible for things such as student finance for these degree programs. That said, the program does offer an excellent return on investment. The majority of the people who complete an MBA experience a $15,000 per year increase in salary. Additionally, around 95% of all MBA holders are employed within six months of graduating, which means you should also be able to see a very rapid return on investment.\nThinking About The Program\u2019s Rankings\nYou should now be well on your way towards choosing your MBA degree program, which means you now have to get into the nitty-gritty. Checking out school rankings in sources such as the Financial Times, the U.S. News & World Report, The Wall Street Journal, and Businessweek is always a good idea.\nIf you ever attend an MBA fair, you will find that one of the top questions prospective students ask is how high the school and program ranks, and this is an important question. The higher a school\u2019s ranking, the more respected and in demand you will be once you graduate.\nSpeak To Schools\nAt this point, you should have collected relevant information on a number of different schools. Try to have at least three different schools to look into, getting their brochures and hand outs, listening to alumni, and more. Visit the schools you are considering and check out the campus, even if you intend to study online.\nIt gives you an idea of the overall culture of the school and whether or not that is something that you feel you can fit into. Write down some questions you may still have and pose them to an admissions counsellor to help you make your decision.\nA key factor in choosing an online MBA degree is finding a school that will provide you the type of networking experiences that you want. One of the major benefits of attending MBA school is the opportunity to network with your classmates, teachers and alumni.\nSome programs offer more productive networking opportunities than others. For example, The Economist recently ranked the following MBA programs as the best for networking in the United States:\nNew York University-Stern\nIndiana University-Kelley School of Business\nUniversity of Notre Dame-Mendoza College of Business\nUniversity of Southern California-Marshall School of Business\nUniversity of Chicago-Booth School of Business\nThe Economist points out that the above programs are known to have some of the largest and most active alumni groups. Other factors that are taken into consideration in the rankings are the ratio of alumni to current MBA students; number of alumni chapters abroad; and how students at the school perceive the quality of their alumni network.\nA very important factor when considering MBA school is the quality of the faculty. Many universities will boast about the high quality of their faculty, according to Poets & Quants, but few actually live up to their marketing rhetoric.\nThat publication recently highlighted the focus on teacher quality at one MBA school in particular: The University of Virginia\u2019s Darden School of Business. An analysis by that magazine looked at student satisfaction data over nearly 25 years, and found that there was no other business school in the country that came out as high as Darden.\nIt also was noted that only a single school over that long period of time had scored in the top 20% of teaching grades from MBAs who had graduated: Darden. Other top-ranked schools for quality of the professors were Dartmouth College\u2019s Tuck School of Business and Cornell University\u2019s Johnson School of Business. The University of North Carolina was also highly ranked.\nPoets & Quants noted that these four universities shared similar attributes:\nThey all have fairly small MBA enrollments\nThe size of their facilities are small, so the recognition of teaching quality is greater\nThey are located in small towns away from the big city\nThey are all general management programs where the main approach to business teaching is through case study. This involves a high level of student-professor interaction.\nAt each school, there is an academic culture that puts pressure on professors to excel in the classroom.\nThis is not to say that MBA students must select the University of Virginia or any of the other universities. It is only to point out that professor quality is very important, and some universities pay closer attention to this than others.\nMany of the programs that do not rank as high for teacher quality have professors who are more focused on academic research than on teaching.\nThere are two major business school accreditation bodies: the ACBSP (Accreditation Council for Business Schools and Programs) and the AACSB (Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business). As you look at different MBA programs, you should note which accreditation the program has.\nAccreditation is just as important as any other factor in choosing the right program. It offers some assurance that the university and program has meet standards of quality, rigor and excellence according to an independent organization.\nAACSB accreditation is generally the best known in the US for business programs; it has been around since 1916. The AACSB puts a strong emphasis in its accreditation process on excellent faculty research. On the other hand, the ACBSP has been around for only 30 years and tends to prioritize teaching excellence and strong educational outcomes.\nAn ACBSP accreditation suggests that the program has achieved excellence in strength of its teaching and educational results, while the AACSB accreditation suggests the program\u2019s strength lies in the research quality of its faculty.\nBoth accreditations are noteworthy but it is important to remember that the AACSB is simply better known in the business industry. So many potential employers may be looking more for that accreditation.\nThe best business schools place a strong emphasis on the work and leadership experience of their students. Students who get into good MBA programs often have several years of work experience. Some programs may require that students have five or more years of experience, while others may require one to three.\nIt is a good idea to look at the average years of work experience that students entering your MBA program have. Generally, the higher the level of work experience of the student body, the more likely that you will learn new skills from other students. Many MBA students find that they learn almost as much from other students as the professors. This is made more likely if the students have been working for seven years, as opposed to having graduated from college last year.\nThe US News and World Report rankings often list the average years of work experience that accepted MBA students have in a given program.\nHow many of the students in the program graduate on time? If most students graduate within two or three years, this is a sign that the program has been successful in accepting quality students and providing them with a valuable education. If a high number of students drop out or transfer, this could signal that the program is of lower quality.\nOn a related note, it is also important to research how many graduates of a program default on their student debt. Students who attend MBA school should be able to obtain a good enough job to service their MBA debt load, if they have any.\nIf a high number of students default on their obligations, either they could not find a job at all, or could not get hired in a job with a sufficient salary to pay their bills.\nAdmissions Difficulty\nDoes the MBA program require you to take the GRE or GMAT examination? These tests have been the gold standard for MBA school admission for decades. Today, more universities are dropping standardized test requirements, or at least offering waivers to students with a high undergraduate GPA, or more than 7-8 years of work experience in business.\nIt also is recommended to look at the US News or Princeton Review rankings to determine how selective the admission process is. While it is easier to be admitted into a less selective school, a more selective program often features a better quality of professor, and better quality students. These factors can definitely affect how much you learn in that program.\nSome universities offer a higher level of financial aid than others. The best programs provide many opportunities for students to earn grants and scholarships. Some programs also offer fellowships where the student can provide teaching or research help while earning their degree. A small stipend and tuition discount is typically provided.\nYou can increase your chances of getting financial aid by turning in the best MBA school application you can. Students who get more than one acceptance letter for MBA school can be in a strong position to negotiate for more aid.\nExperts say that top MBA schools want to attract good applicants with more aid, so if you have a very good application, you stand a better chance of getting school paid for.\nYou are now ready to actually enroll in a school. Check all the facts and figures you have collated once more, speak to your support network about your choice and motivation, and decide to go for it. Make sure you meet all the different acceptance criteria and send in all your documentation, and you will be good to go.\nWho You Know, Not What You Know. (2017, March 24).

        "raw_content": "24 March 2014 Evaluation\n\u2018We all began with the best of intentions, and then ran slap into reality. Very quickly, it was evident that the project was altogether impossible.\u2019\nSo writes Elizabeth White (Director, British Council Azerbaijan) about a production of Martin McDonagh\u2019s Leenane Trilogy, performed in Baku by Azerbaijani actors in their own language. Her account of the project \u2013 which ended triumphantly against all the odds \u2013 can be read online here, and is full of insights into theatre, diversity and intercultural dialogue.\nFascinating as it is, though, I was also struck by how blogging and the Internet can enable new kinds of evaluation. Ms. White\u2019s piece is, in effect, a participant\u2019s evaluation of the project. It describes the rationale and development, the obstacles that had to be overcome (or sometimes circumvented), the performances and the responses of actors, critics and government. She writes candidly about the difficulties and there is a lot to be learned from the piece.\nThere will, I suppose, be a formal evaluation, describing all this again with more methodological rigour at greater length for fewer readers. But this critical reflection, arising spontaneously from a committed creative process is probably more valuable to the writer\u2019s peers and other practitioners, despite having the appearance of a simple blog post. Because it is public, she has taken care both to tell her story well and to focus on what are, for her, its key experiences and lessons.\nThere are good policy reasons for evaluating arts programmes although, since the reality is often burdensome and unproductive, it has far less influence on artistic and cultural practice than it might. A straightforward, public and reflective self-evaluation, of which this piece is a fine example, could do a great deal to nourish the creative practice of artists, managers and even funding bodies.\nazerbaijanbritish councilBritish Council Azerbaijanevaluationformal evaluationintercultural dialogueMartin McDonaghmeasuring cultural valuepracticetheatre",

        "raw_content": "On the Campus Tilghman speaks about genomics and race\nBy Giri Nathan \u201913\nResearch on the human genome will forever change the way scientists think about race, President Shirley Tilghman said at the annual James Baldwin Lecture March 9.\n\"Sequencing of the human genome has revealed that the proxies we have historically used to define race -- physical characteristics, geographical origins -- are not irrelevant,\" she told an audience at Richardson Auditorium, but they do \"need to be much more nuanced.\"\nIn her talk, \"The Meaning of Race in a Post-Genome Era,\" Tilghman approached race from her own vantage point: that of a premier molecular biologist. Having done significant work with the Human Genome Project, she used insights from her academic field to examine the fraught issue of race.\nAccording to Tilghman, there is \"debate in the scientific community about whether the historical descriptors of race are valid anymore, or indeed over ever were, and whether they should be replaced with more robust information on genetic ancestry.\" She presented several studies that questioned our cultural perceptions, including one that showed the vast genetic variation among members of the \"same race.\"\nAcknowledging the dangers of population-based genetic studies, Tilghman charted the centuries of scientists who drew racially charged conclusions from biased, often falsified research. She cited phrenology, a baseless scientific movement that attempted to tie cranium size to intelligence and other abstract qualities.\n\"I say this with a specter in the back of my mind of someone speaking from this stage in 100 years, castigating the scientists of my era for their blindness to the ways in which their scientific findings were used to sustain prejudice and discrimination,\" she said.\nNevertheless, she urged that scientists stay sensitive to these pitfalls and push even further in their investigation of race -- particularly at Princeton. \"As a university that prides itself as being 'In the Nation's Service and in the Service of all Nations,'\" she said, \"we need to be a leading voice in this debate.\"\nhttp://blogs.princeton.edu/paw/2010/03/tilghman-speaks/\nPresident Tilghman\nVideo: Ze'eva Cohen\nWatch Ze\u2019eva Cohen perform with Aleta Hayes in an excerpt from her choreographed work \u201cNegotiations\u201d and Cohen\u2019s \u201cAriadne\u201d performed by Caryn Heilman.\nA moment with ...

        "title": "Phoenix Entertainment Partners - America's Favorite Karaoke Brands",
        "raw_content": "President's Statement About Disc Safekeeping\nThe following is a statement from Kurt Slep, the President of Phoenix Entertainment Partners, LLC, issued on April 5, 2018.\nRecently, we received an inquiry on one of our social media outlets from a longtime Sound Choice licensee: \"On other forums some people are saying that with the new Gem series promotion\u2014you do not get the actual disks but the set is stored in your warehouse.\" He asked us to comment on that story.\nWe've also become aware of some discussion about whether we actually have the GEM series discs that back up our Disc Safekeeping program. We do. We've identified the source of people's confusion on that issue. More on that below.\nDisc Safekeeping has been a feature of all GEM series licenses since the summer of 2017. This is not something we started doing with our recent promotion, but because there has been a lot of recent interest in the GEM series due to that promotion, especially from existing licensees wanting to grow their business with additional sets, this is the first time that many of our licensees have encountered the program.\nWe began licensing the GEM series to commercial end users in 2010. The original GEM series license was for five years. At the end of five years, the licensee could renew in three-year increments for a small fee. Renewal was guaranteed as long as the licensee continued to meet the terms of the license. However, the discs have always remained our property, according to the terms of the license agreement.\nIn 2016 and 2017, we had a lot of GEM series licenses that came up for renewal. In the process of reminding those licensees of the need to renew, we discovered that a significant number of licensees had not followed the terms of the license. They had, in some cases, lost or destroyed their discs, and in some cases the discs were stolen. We also became aware of a couple of cases where their discs had been pawned\u2014something we learned about when other licensees had bought the discs from the pawnshop and contacted us to move the license into their names.\nThat presents a problem for us. Those discs sets are limited in number. We can't make any more of them. So if we can't recover them when a licensee doesn't follow the agreement, we lose an irreplaceable asset that's worth thousands of dollars.\nWith that in mind, we revised the GEM series program in a couple of different ways. First, we reduced the initial license term to 3 years and required an annual renewal after that. That way, we maintain closer contact with our licensees. Second, we introduced Disc Safekeeping. Instead of sending you the discs, we send you the content of the discs on a high-capacity USB drive. We also pull a set of discs from our supply, put it in a box, label it with your name and license number, and set it aside. This solves the problem of accidental loss, theft, damage, or unauthorized sale or transfer, and it relieves our licensees of the need to store and protect our property. It also has another advantage for the licensee. Rather than having to copy the tracks from each individual disc\u2014a process that can be tedious and time-consuming\u2014the licensee can simply use the USB drive directly or copy the contents onto a hard drive.\nWe have been accused of starting the Disc Safekeeping program because we ran out of GEM series sets. That is completely false. We have enough sets to meet demand at current levels for the immediate future. When we run out of sets, the GEM series will no longer be offered\u2014unless, of course, there are licensees who don't renew or sell their license prior to their renewal deadline, and we're able to license that set again. We're not there yet. In fact, here is a picture, which was taken earlier this week, showing just a few of the Diamonds we have in stock, along with a set that was being pulled for a new licensee.\nThat hasn't stopped our enemies from making and republishing that false accusation. Unfortunately, because of the strong stance we've taken against piracy, we've earned a few enemies over the years. We're proud to be an enemy of pirates, by the way. But that accusation doesn't make any sense. If we were to ship out content that wasn't backed by royalty-paid discs, we could become a target of music publishers whose rights could be affected. We are working hard to develop good relationships with music publishers so that we can bring you new music. Damaging those relationships and exposing ourselves to lawsuits isn't worth a few thousand dollars.\nWe believe we've traced the origin of this rumor to a misunderstanding. One of our employees was trying to respond to what he thought was an inquiry about selling individual Sound Choice\u00ae discs. Our employee said\u2014correctly\u2014that we no longer have individual discs in stock. (We stopped selling individual Sound Choice\u00ae discs in 2014.) But the recipient of that communication took our employee's statement to mean that we didn't have the GEM series discs in stock, either. We've discussed this situation with our whole team, and we're going to be extra careful in the future about how we talk about this issue. We're sorry for the misunderstanding. But the misunderstanding doesn't change the basic fact: Every license we issue under the Disc Safekeeping program is backed by a complete, fully licensed, royalty-paid set of GEM series discs, and that set is marked, put aside in our warehouse, and left alone. As a matter of fact, if any of our licensees want to come and \"visit\" their set(s), they'll be here, and we'd of course love to meet you in person.\nI hope this puts this rumor to bed and answers all of your questions about the GEM series and about Disc Safekeeping. But if you have questions, please contact our excellent Customer Care team for assistance. And if you haven't yet given us your input on new song suggestions, please take a few minutes to do so on our Song Request page.\nKurt J. Slep, President",

They are most instructive to try to understand, firstly, what the philosophical notion of ideal means and, secondly, why mathematical and geometric tools are extensively used to work on ideality, namely, to design ideal houses. The first part of the article focuses on the philosophical foundations of ideality and, after an overview (...) of the fifteen projects, on the use of the golden ratio in two particularly meaningful cases. The second part of the article focuses on the cases in which there is a hidden use of the golden ratio, on the use of the modulus and on the use of the number 2.

Our aim is to show how the central perspective was known in the Hellenistic era both from a theoretical and practical point of view as evidenced by the analysis of some imperial period frescoes found in Rome. In the second part of this article we look at the Euclidean perspective theorems, using the Cartesian coordinates and the limit idea.\nFrom Symbols to Written Landscapes. The Role of Astronomy in Ancient Egyptian Architecture.Giulio Magli - 2017 - Lebenswelt: Aesthetics and Philosophy of Experience 11:125-133.details\nArchitecture of ancient Egypt is criss-crossed by a series of giant projects whose aim was to celebrate the divine nature of the Pharaohs and their rights to eternal afterlife. In many of such projects a complex interplay between idealization of symbols in hieroglyph writings and shaping of built objects and cultural landscapes can be seen. Since the afterlife destination of the Pharaohs was in the sky, astronomy plays a relevant role in understanding this interplay, as it occurs, in particular, in (...) the Khufu project at Giza and in the planning of Akhenaten\u2019s capital at Amarna. (shrink)\nGolden Ratio Beauty as Scientific Function.Scott A. Olsen - 2017 - Lebenswelt: Aesthetics and Philosophy of Experience 11:46-60.details\nNormally when one is considering the golden ratio in the history of ideas, one is often looking at it as an aesthetic principle \u2013 usually associated with Greek art, sculpture and mathematics. However, in recent years the prevalence of the golden ratio within a broad range of scientific disciplines has brought its role in the perfection of science to the forefront. I would like to collapse these two areas by proposing a somewhat novel way of looking at the aesthetics of (...) the golden ratio: its pervasive expression in scientific form and function is the basis of the aesthetics in the world. Therefore, science contains the same mathematical beauty as found in artistic expression. The golden ratio guides the Chaos Border of Kolmogorov, Arnold, and Moser and it can be found hidden in all elementary particles, and even in the proportions of dark matter and energy relative to visible matter and energy. It is evident in the structure and growth functions of plants and animals and it can be found in the physiological functions of humans. It now appears that without the golden ratio, we would not have the form or function of the proton, cell, athlete, horse, species, planet, solar system or galaxy. (shrink)\nT.C.

The rivalry between lyre and flute, between harmony, mathematically determinable, and melody, gatherable only by hearing, arises from the myth, from the fight between Apollo and Marsia, where Greece and Phrygia, Europe and Asia are opposed in a civilisations collision. In modernity this collision arose again as political, whereas the egalitarian melody is opposed to the elitist harmony. Into this collision we find fine (...) arts, not beauty anymore: fine arts leave the territory of beaux arts of fine poetry but remain, for contemporaneity, works of art. But what do arts, not beauty anymore, or even ugly, want? Which aim do they pursue? How can we judge them?

In his incisive production an interesting section is devoted to Tatiana Pavlova, a Russian actress who started performing in Italy in 1923, and gradually introduced a new concept of acting and show.Referring to reviews and pictures, this article investigates two different points of view about theatre, the relationship between text and stage, performance and further components of the show.\nG.

Quando le Scienze Cognitive Incontrano L'Ermeneutica.Gianluca Consoli - 2017 - Lebenswelt: Aesthetics and Philosophy of Experience 10:69-80.details\nThe so-called \u2018neuro-psychological approach\u2019 to aesthetics studies aesthetic perception and evaluation in neural, psychological, and social terms. All the empirical results recently collected by this approach are in line with the notion of \u2018hermeneutic circle\u2019. In particular, they suggest that aesthetic perception involves a special and original integration and coordination of low-level and high-level processing dynamics, top-down control and bottom-up construction of stimuli, and immediate and extensive evaluative processes.\nNormativit\u00e0 E Creazione: I Giudizi di Gusto in Kant.Gianluigi Dallarda - 2017 - Lebenswelt: Aesthetics and Philosophy of Experience 10:14-35.details\nThis paper investigates some of the main problems concerning the normativity of aesthetic judgments in Kant\u2019s Critique of Judgment. Kant\u2019s attempt to provide a transcendental foundation to aesthetic judgments clashes with the impossibility to find a determined conceptual rule under which they could be subsumed. This paper aims to discuss and clarify the set of problems derived from this attempt, focusing especially on the artistic perspective. In order to do that, it will be necessary to deal with the following notions: (...) eautonomy, sensus communis aestheticus and genius. From this analysis it will emerge the importance of exemplarity as concept that allow us to highlight some implicit and usually neglected aspects of Kant\u2019s aesthetic theory. (shrink)\nP.

Le Atmosfere Nell'opera Lirica.Federica Scassillo - 2017 - Lebenswelt: Aesthetics and Philosophy of Experience 10:53-68.details\nNowadays, atmospheres are a frequent topic in the philosophy of music. However, \u2018music\u2019 is frequently understood with a generical meaning. On the contrary, this paper aims to apply the theory of atmospheres in a defined musical genre: the Italian Opera. Opera is grounded on three expressive elements \u2013 music, libretto and stage. For this reason, it is reductive to talk only about the relationship between music and atmospheres. The studies about Opera has often treated separately its three expressive levels; the (...) theory of atmospheres, as olistic approach, seems to offer a renewed integrity to the analysis of Opera \u2013 by rediscovering its performative character. In this perspective, the hic et nunc of a particular performance is an important element to analyze as the score as the libretto, by paying attention to the eventual conflict between the \u2018potential atmospheres\u2019 of the texts and the \u2018derivative atmospheres\u2019 of the contemporary staging \u2013 especially of the \u2018displaced\u2019 and \u2018radical\u2019 ones.

When Britain successfully gained the right to host the 2012 Games we were lead to believe that this would be a major boost to the manufacturing sector in the UK. This has now proved illusionary, but what is particularly galling is the way in which British pottery companies like Royal Doulton and Wedgwood have out sourced much of their production of Olympic pottery to the Far East. Despite being decorated with Union Jacks and London\u2019s famous landmarks, fine bone china teapots, cups and saucers, vases and pottery are being produced 6,000 miles away in Thailand and China. At a time when over 8,000 people from the Potteries are out of work I would describe the action of companies like Wedgwood as little more than treachery directed at the community which created the company in the first place.\nPosted in Blog | Tagged 2012, Bill Cawey, Comment, London 2012 Olympics, Olympics, Stoke, Stoke-on-Trent\nCost of Stoke-on-Trent City Council recruitment\nYesterday I wrote about how Stoke-on-Trent City Council have advertised 21 jobs with the specialist HR & recruitment company Penna and not one of the candidates found was offered the position they had applied for.\nToday I am going to write about the literally eye-watering cost of these failed recruitment drives.\nAccording to figures found in the City Councils transparency reports, Penna were paid \u00a3126,009.14 in 2011* and had just 21 jobs placed with them, that is \u00a36000 per vacancy.\nThe councils spending data is particularly poor so it is not possible to say exactly how the money is broken down by role but of the \u00a3126,000\n\u00a345,761.60 Advertising\n\u00a37709.20 Interviews\n\u00a315,237.34 Expenses\n\u00a320624.54 Miscellaneous expenses\n\u00a336676.46 Printing, Works, Rechargeable Works, Repairs alterations, Section 106 & equipment and furniture\nThat is \u00a3126,000 of your money that could be used to keep a library open, help keep a swimming pool open or any number of services that are listed for closure in the Budget book.\nThe issue isn\u2019t with Penna, who are well respected in their sector, but more with the City Council. If Stoke-on-Trent City Council are rejecting everyone of the 82 candidates that have been selected by Penna to go forward to interview then the person profile, job spec and brief must be wrong.\n* figures are for only 10 months as the August transparency report is missing and December has not yet been published so the true figure could be around \u00a3150,000.\nPosted in Uncategorised | Tagged 2012, budget, City Council, Comment, Councillors, Cuts, Jobs, Labour, news, Penna, Politics, Stoke, Stoke on Trent, Stoke-on-Trent, Stoke-on-Trent City Council, Vacancies\nOld Bills Almanack 2012\nPosted on January 5, 2012 by Bill Cawley\nI have been asked to produce another Old Bill\u2019s Almanck for 2012. Here goes\n1 The leadership of the City Council will change as a major crisis overwhelms the Labour Group in the spring.\n2 The City Council will be looking for a new Chief Executive in the autumn.\n3 Unemployment will increase to 2.80 million by June.\n4 There will be a snap general election in October in which the Conservatives have an overall majority of less than 20. The Lib Dems will be reduced to 15 seats. Labour will suffer major losses in Scotland and the West Midlands.\n5 Ed Milliband will resign as leader of the Labour party after the election defeat and be replaced by Yvette Cooper.\n6 The elections in the US and France will be won by Obama and Sarkovy.\n7 There will be serious civil unrest in Russia leading to the declaration of martial law.\n8 There will be a new Pope at the end of the year- the first from Latin America.\n9 A major rock legend will die in the summer.\n10 There will be a major volcanic eruption in Asia leading to climatic turbulence.\n11 It will be a fine and long summer with record breaking temperatures in August in the UK.\nThere will be large forest fires in Southern Europe in the summer.\n13 Religious tensions will flare into open conflict in Nigeria\nPosted in Blog | Tagged 2012, Almanack, Bill Cawley, Comment, news, Predictions, Stoke-on-Trent\n2012- the year of delivery\nPosted on December 31, 2011 by Bill Cawley\nWith the New Year just hours around the corner, Bill Cawley looks towards 2012, the year of delivery.\nIts two years since John Van Der Laarschot became Chief Executive of the City Council and it will be 12 months from May since the Council was in Labour majority control. This year will need to see both parties delivering on the objectives that they set themselves. Residents of the city will need to see progress on a number of projects and some way out of the encircling gloom that has gripped the area since 2008. Currently over 8,000 citizens of Stoke are unemployed, local economic activity appears sluggish and the outlook nationally seems uncertain. Something needs to happen but what?\nHowever there needs to be seen to be progress and actual completion in a number of key projects and top of the list must be Hanley Bus Station. My understanding was that the station ought to be finished by next autumn. There is work going on site and one hopes that finishing the bus station is very high on the agenda of the City Council. I wonder whether there is any recognition of the need to ensure that local projects like this do generate local jobs. It will be essential for local projects to deliver tangibly local jobs otherwise The City Council will be neglecting their responsibility.\nSecondly linked to the Bus station is the need to attract investment and interest in the Sentral development in Hanley. News has reached the local media that Marks and Spenser amongst others are interested in the development but in my opinion that M & S interest only means displacement from an existing site in the centre of Hanley. Again a benchmark will be an increase in take up from leading brand shops and a timetable for completion of the project.\nAnother area of concern is a resolution of areas like Middleport and the difficulties faced by the reduction in funding for RENEW. The blight that is Middleport needs to be seriously addressed in the coming year.\nThe bid for the Green Investment Bank locally has been made although I would personally like to see a strong case made for putting this developments with its promise of excellent jobs and potential for the green economy having a more central role in the local economy. A decision is likely in March.\nAnother conundrum for 2012 will what to do with the Spode site in Stoke. Just before Christmas a press report indicated that Tesco were not interested in developing the site. What to do with the site will be a question that will require some resolution in the coming year.\nThe desire for more \u201d localism\u201d\u009d will also dominate political discourse. There has been interest in both Penkhull and Fenton for more self-government and patience with the City Council has become stretched especially over such issues as the future of Fenton Library and other civic amenities in the area.\nWhich brings me to another topic which will again command debate in 2012 and that is turning former civic assets over to community groups to run independently. Perhaps the first acid test will be the future of Wedgwood Memorial College in Barlaston. There is a strong desire to retain the facility for educational use and a group of interested individuals have put together a business case to take over the facility.\nOn a more certain note 6 of the City\u2019s new schools school be completed and ready for occupation by the autumn term including the new and interestingly designed Brownhills school although the costs of PFI are still a subject worthy of future investigations.\nOn a more equivocal note the debate and questions over the Dimensions debacle still remain and must cast doubts on the future of the officers and councillors involved in this matter.\nAnother policy change, which will have serious implications for the City Council in terms of its social and health care services, will be the rapid changes to the NHS Primary Care with GPs taking more control over commissioning decisions. I have serious doubts whether the Health and Wellbeing Board- a function within the City Council- is fully aware of the centrality of their role in ensuring equity in accessing services is maintained.\n1 hope of mine in terms of delivery of a service will be the reopening of the railway line between Leek and Stoke which is projected to happen in the autumn of 2012. I went to a public meeting in Leek and the speed in which this project is happening makes me optimistic that this will be a project that does see fruition in the coming year.\n2012 will be the year I feel in which reputations at the Civic Centre especially the senior officers in post will be made or broken.\nPosted in Blog | Tagged 2011, 2012, City Council, Comment, Councillors, John van de Laarschot, Labour, news, Politics, RENEW, Spode, Stoke, Stoke on Trent, Stoke-on-Trent, Stoke-on-Trent City Council",

        "raw_content": "Celebrating - The Goddess of YA Literature\nToday is a holiday for many. Kids are out of school. Banks are closed. No mail is being delivered today. But many of us are at work. Some are in offices; I am working from home in comfy clothes. Reading has been a big part of how I have spent and will spend today. I have books to read and review and some books to read for the Cybils judging as well. After those are done, I have a book I would love to spend some time reading.\nLast night, as the news of the Scholastic decision on A BIRTHDAY CAKE FOR GEORGE WASHINGTON lit up social media, my friends and I began an earnest discussion of our own. We began to pull together books about African American characters NOT set during slave times or the Civil War. Over the course of an hour, we compiled a lovely list for one another. The genesis of this list was a comment I received (and one others had received as well) that decried the fact that so many books with African American characters centered on slavery. Where were the books about kids being kids?\nThat is, IMHO, a legitimate concern. It was one others were fielding online as well. As my friends and I discussed the withdrawal of a book and all that it could portend, we also did a few other things. Each of us either ordered a copy of the book or found our copy (or, in the case of a couple of us, downloaded it to Kindle to read). We then talked about the criticisms of the book and our own responses to it. It was a calm and reasoned discussion. We did not call for the book to be banned; we did not ask the publisher to pull it from distribution. Instead, we reflected on the book itself as well as the criticisms and the other pieces that have been written about it.\nTo my mind, that is worth celebrating: that we can talk about a book, using the text and illustrations, and pulling in the views of others: that is good discourse. And now we are all reading the various posts, from Edi Campbell, from Reading While White, from Mitali Perkins, Roger Sutton and Bruce Coville and others. We are trying to take in the various criticisms and concerns. We are talking about the book. I hope this discussion continues. It is an important one to have.",

It\u2019s not that our love is troubled, it\u2019s that we both have situations going on in our lives that are making it a little hard to be fully involved in the relationship at the moment. In fact, I think our love has grown for each other, but the situations are making it very hard for us to actually stay together.\nI\u2019m a strong believer that dreams can help show us what we are truly thinking and I was wondering what this particular dream ment. In my dream, my boyfriend and I were sitting on my couch watching a thunderstorm out of the big bay window in my living room with a candle on the coffee table but every other light was off in the house and we were alone. It was a particularly intense storm that was really lighting up the sky. We simply sat close together and watched it with my head against his shoulder without talking for what felt like forever. Finally, I grabbed his chin, looked into each others eyes for a little while, and we began to kiss very passionately. That led into very passionate love making. This was a very slow, emotional and close love making. It almost wasn\u2019t sexual at all. It was just the closeness that mattered but it was still very intense. I was just curious as to what this dream could mean and if it had anything to do with the problems that we are having in our relationship or possibly what the outcome should be.\nDreams are idiocyncratic to the dreamer. Without knowing you, I can\u2019t give you much more than what you\u2019ve given me.\nI think you understood the dream very well. The situations you speak of are the storm. They may be dark and even scary. Nonetheless, there is a candle of light, offering hope. Most important, you look to each other for safety and love and closeness. It\u2019s a positive and hopeful dream that can be a great comfort to you as you manage the challenges ahead.\nHartwell-Walker, D. (2018). Dream Interpretation. Psych Central.

your new venture ideas within the company.\nIn this module, we're going to look at how does technology\nuncertainty influence an innovation in the marketplace.\nAnd because it influences innovations in the marketplace, it's going to make\na difference for when you might try to launch an internal venture.\nSo let's understand where technology is, it's everywhere.\nMany industries are traditionally high-tech, and\nmost of what is happening with the Internet of things today is moving in\nthe direction of being supported by forms of technology that we haven't seen before.\nAnd so newer and newer opportunities are emerging because of\nthe technology that has become available.\nAnd many other industries, not just the traditionally high-tech industries,\nenable companies that are in those industries like agriculture,\nautomotive manufacturing or consumer products development.\nSo let's look at the forms of technology.\nAs a physical structure, there's software, there's brainware, and there's know-how.\nAnd so there is different forms of technology, or\nall different ways in which technology can be applied in and\nleverage to create an innovative idea, to create an innovative product, or\nSo all these different forms of technology are things that can be drawn upon.\na practical application of knowledge for an engineering solution.\nOkay, not just because the technology exists or do we use it, but\nwe are looking for a practical application of it.\nAnd so, the way in which you accomplish a task using a technical process,\na technical method, or some new technical knowledge\nAnd finally, technology applications in production or the use of sophisticated\ndevices like computers, the Internet of things, or other electronic tools\nare also ways in which you can begin to leverage technology or an innovation.\nAnd so let's talk about forms of technology influence,\nWe're going to look at market uncertainty,\nwe're going to look at uncertainty of the technology itself, and\nSo technology uncertainty, first of all,\nAnd so there is always be some uncertainty about whether the technology or\nthe company can function with that product or that service.\nSo there is uncertainty over whether the new innovation or\nthe new idea that comes from an innovation will actually function as is promised.\nNow, there's a lot of promise about how things are going to work, and\nAnd so you get version 1.0, 1.1, 1.2 and even 2.0, 3.0, and so forth.\nSo you get a constant improvement of the technology because there is uncertainty\nAnd there's uncertainly over the time table or\nSo there is usually a time table for any product development and\nat a specific point in time so they can move to a manufacturing mode.\nAnd then there's uncertainty of whether or\nMaybe it's a material, maybe it's a component that is essential for\nthat new innovation.\nIt could be any number of things, but\nsuppliers are source of uncertainty as well.\nunintended consequences and

this is just a picture of all of the different forces that\nAnd they all play a part in the planning and\nthe control of what happens to an innovation and what happens to\nan innovative product or

going to know something about it but\nyou're not going to know everything about it.\nThere's always going to be a certain amount of customer fear, a consumer fear\nwe could call it, and uncertainty

Whitmire, states \u201cthe SONGS site is on Department of Navy land. The letter states \u201cthe SONGS site, on the other hand, is under exclusive Federal jurisdiction, where state law generally does NOT apply.\u201d It also warns the Commission that ignoring federal jurisdiction may result in the Navy requiring the complete removal of the nuclear waste dump at San Onofre. The Navy\u2019s position is fully consistent with two precedent setting lawsuits also referenced within the Navy\u2019s warning.\nPublic Watchdogs\u2019 Board Member William Weigel, Jr., a retired Judge Advocate of the U.S. Air Force, stated at Edison\u2019s November 2nd Community Engagement Panel (CEP) meeting, \u201cThe only authority the Navy has was granted to it in 1963 under Public Law 88-82 in August 1963.

The models used were multilayers made up of thin sheets of gelatine. Two types of experiment were carried out. In the first a section of the base of a horizontally layered model was slowly raised to simulate uplift and gravity gliding. In the second a horizontally layered model was laterally compressed by a slow moving piston. The initial development of lateral compressive stress in both types of model was achieved by the propagation of a stress front along the length of a model. In a number of experiments this stress front played an important role in localizing the initiation of folds. The existence and rate of propagation of the stress front were related to the presence of shear stresses along the base of a model. The development of folds in the majority of experiments resulted in well defined anticlines separated by broad, poorly defined synclinal zones. Individual anticlines were initiated at different times during the course of an experiment and this resulted either in the serial development of a train of folds or in the development of isolated anticlines. Asymmetric anticlines were, during the initial stages of amplification, upright symmetrical structures. Asymmetry tended to develop late in the amplification history of such folds. In three dimensions, folds tend to be non-cylindrical and adjacent structures form an array of en echelon periclines.",

She didn\u2019t resist and I thought it was a good thing. She never showed any signs of dislike towards it. She didn\u2019t try to bite or chew. However, after a few minutes of leaving it on her, she started moping and she showed an expression of sadness. I know, it sounds exaggerating but I swear her eyes became droopy and the mood she was emitting was sort of a depressing feeling. I thought she was just a little uncomfortable since it was new to her so I dismissed it.\nIt started to feel a bit weird to me when she wouldn\u2019t look at my face anymore. When I called her, she wouldn\u2019t come and she wouldn\u2019t let me touch her. I finally took the collar off and it took me a short while to get her in her normal mood with me. I tried showing her the collar again but then she turned her head to the side, avoiding the thing as if she was afraid of it. I asked my mum about how she was treated at the shop and I was told she was in a crate so it suggested that no trauma has been done that would cause her to dislike a collar. I don\u2019t know what to do. When we go out, I have to carry her because I\u2019m afraid I might lose her. I apologize if it\u2019s quite a lengthy comment. I am just concerned for my dog.\nAnna buena says\nMine is the same? What did you do. My heart breaks when he looks so sad and won\u2019t come to me. Please tell me what you did to make it work?\nI got her a harness instead. I think the collar being around her neck gives her discomfort. Since she was kept in a crate, I assumed that wearing a collar made her feel restrained. So I bought a harness to at least lessen her burden. I made sure to have fun with her and distract her when she\u2019s wearing it. Also made sure to let her wear it as often as possible. I take it off at home so that she doesn\u2019t feel like she has to restrain herself from anything. And so far so good! Whenever I show her the harness, it tells her that we\u2019re going somewhere fun. And I just love her reaction everytime! Hope it helps.\nGood tip! We have some friends who use harnesses as well. On the reverse, we had one of our guide dogs not make it because he was sensitive to wearing a harness and ended up career changed. Every puppy is different!\nJane whiteq says\nMy puppy has been wearing colar for 3 months. His surface is in trouble eith parasites now. Is it about wrong wearing?\nThanks for the advice! After one week of wearing his collar, my puppy finally adjusted to it.\nAwesome! I\u2019m glad your puppy go used to his collar.",

        "raw_content": "You\u2019ll never guess where I spent Easter weekend\u2026\nThis month, as part of my year of biblical womanhood, I\u2019m submitting to taharat hamishpach, or \u201cfamily purity,\u201d as described in Leviticus 15-18. This means I am ceremonially unclean for a total of twelve days. For those twelve days I can have no physical contact with my husband (no sex, no hugging, no affectionate pats on the back), and no physical contact with men (no handshakes, no high-fives, no passing of items like salt and pepper shakers). I cannot attend official religious services, and anything I sit on is considered unclean, so I've taken to carrying around my Rhea County High School Golden Eagle stadium seat cushion everywhere I go.\nAs a nod to the storied \u201cred tents\u201d of the biblical matriarchs (which scholars are uncertain actually existed), I spent the first three days and two nights of my niddah (\u201cremoval/separation\u201d) camping out in the front yard. Thankfully, the weather was fantastic and I slept surprisingly well. But that didn\u2019t keep a few wild hyenas\u2014which I\u2019ve been told were more likely cats\u2014from scaring the crap out of me in the middle of the night.\nOn the upside, this is the first time I\u2019ve ever woken up for the sunrise on Easter Sunday!\nSo Happy Easter from the Red Tent. Even here...especially here... I am so thankful that He is risen.\nSo what\u2019s the most unusual Easter you\u2019ve celebrated?\nNote: I'm about to upload a bunch of photos from the project to my Facebook page if you want to see some from our Passover seder and my \"month of modesty.\"\nhttps://rachelheldevans.com/blog/easter-weekend-tent\nWe argue over metaphors...\nWe are happy when we are growing\nURL: https://rachelheldevans.com/blog/easter-weekend-tent",

        "raw_content": "At RapportBoost.AI, we hear a lot of talk about artificial intelligence, and to be honest, most of it is hype. In fact, a scary part of the AI startup ecosystem is that there\u2019s no regulatory board that\u2019s actually kicking the tires of different companies to verify that their technology is AI. To add insult to injury, the term artificial intelligence is a misleading label for the methods behind AI \u2013 machine learning, deep learning, and natural language processing. In their current state, these technologies are much better at helping professionals improve their performance than they are equipped to replicate human intelligence with an artificial entity.\nThe term artificial intelligence is a misplaced signpost that doesn\u2019t get us where we need to go \u2013 especially when applied to highly human sectors, like sales and customer support. Artificial implies that the data scientists and companies deploying these technologies are replacing humans with machines. This is an incorrect assumption. Scholars and industry experts agree that human-level artificial intelligence is years away. A recent survey published in the MIT Technology Review estimate another 15 years until AI can imitate a retail salesperson, and 120 years until the automation of human labor.\nOur technology does fall under the umbrella of artificial intelligence, but we\u2019re most interested in using technology to augment human intelligence. More specifically, we use AI to improve chat agent performance. We\u2019re confident in this approach for two reasons:\nIt\u2019s the best application of the technology now. In its current implementation, AI is capable of two things: (1) automating repetitive tasks by predicting outcomes on data that has been labeled by human beings, and (2) enhance human decision-making by feeding problems to algorithms developed by humans. Our live chat agent training solutions help the humans behind successful sales and customer support interactions perform better at their jobs. We do this by employing predictive outcomes based on unique data and customers. Our augmented intelligence helps chat coaches develop unbiased, effective training strategies to empower live chat agent performance and achieve significant operational gains.\nThe emotional intelligence of humans is what drives sales. EQ is a human competence that\u2019s difficult to teach machines because it involves intuition, empathy, and moral judgment. These traits make up the qualitative aspects of human interaction that are difficult to quantify and draw insights from using data. By testing conversation variables across hundreds of dimensions, we\u2019re able to reverse engineer a conversation to give EQ recommendations to the human agents that can carry them out. When applied to live chat conversations, augmented intelligence improves live chat agent performance and happiness by optimizing the task at hand.\nArtificial intelligence \u2013 and chatbots \u2013 can\u2019t convince people that they\u2019re human in conversation. We took it upon ourselves to face-off with award-winning bots and found that customer support chatbots fail the majority of the time. In our recent work with a client, we measured the optimal chat agent response time in relation to conversion rates. We found that if the live chat agent responded too quickly, the customer was less likely to buy. On the other hand, if the live chat agent responded too slowly, the customer perceived a lack of adequate customer service.\nThis goes to show that automating interactions with customers through adolescent technologies like chatbots isn\u2019t going to convert site visitors, let alone increase customer retention. There\u2019s an optimal behavior for each aspect of a brand to customer communication, and it changes on a case-by-case basis. The bottom line is don\u2019t let a chatbot be your brand ambassador. Why? Because they\u2019re unable to sell effectively, they don\u2019t reflect brand identity, and they\u2019re not personalized to adapt to the user.",

        "raw_content": "A new shoe boutique, Palessi, recently opened in Santa Monica in space formerly occupied by Armani. To celebrate the grand opening, Palessi threw a party for influencers.\nAs they drank champagne and snapped selfies for Instagram postings, they were asked their opinions of the various shoes and boots and their willingness to pay. Using descriptions like \u201celegant\u201d and \u201csophisticated,\u201d this group lauded the materials, style, and craftsmanship of the store\u2019s wares. They said they\u2019d pay a variety of prices, all in the hundreds of dollars. The top offer was $640, and Palessi sold about $3,000 worth of products in the first few hours of the party.\nThe big reveal at the party, as it turns out, was that this store was a pop-up stocked by Payless ShoeSource. All of what \u201cPalessi\u201d offered at the party was available at Payless Shoes for prices ranging from $19.99 to $39.99:\nWe may chuckle on how this group got bamboozled, but we are all subject to the same principle: perception of quality and willingness to pay is heavily influenced by context, placement, or geography. We\u2019re all subject to it.\nWe pay different prices for bottled water, for example, in the grocery store, the convenience store, a sporting event, or the movie theater. We not only pay different prices, but we expect those prices to be different.\nEach of us, however, values the context of bottled water differently. I may rebel about the \u201cexorbitant\u201d price of the bottled water on Friday night at the movie theater, but the very next day, as I\u2019m baking in the sun at the ballgame, I\u2019m happy to pay that same price or more for that very same bottle.\nThe \u201cinfluencers\u201d at Palessi were clearly willing to pay for location (swanky store in Santa Monica), exclusivity (an invitation-only grand opening party), association (I\u2019m part of the \u201cin crowd\u201d), acceptance (a purchase here validates my \u201cinfluencer\u201d status), and brand perception (Palessi? Must be Italian!). Even among this group, however, different individuals were willing to pay different prices, based on their own internal calculus of the sum of all these factors.\nThis principle is not just confined to retail. In the B2B and professional services space, think about legal services. Think about a sloppily dressed lawyer who works out of a storefront. You can peer in and see him working at an old metal desk with an ancient computer. Then consider the sharply dressed attorney in a downtown high-rise, sitting behind a large wooden desk, Apple computer at the ready, in a well-appointed office. What\u2019s your perception of the quality of the legal advice you\u2019ll receive, and the price you\u2019re willing to pay for that counsel?\nIf you are pricing your products or services without a keen understanding of buyer context, your price is wrong. You're almost certainly leaving profit on the table.\n(Photo credit: Payless Shoes)\nContext in Pricing: The Waffle House Edition \u2013 Ray Business Advisors on February 12, 2019 at 11:28 am\n[\u2026] to context as well as the geography they find themselves in. This lesson is one takeaway from the undercover \u201cPalessi\u201d shoe store promotion conducted by Payless Shoes. Customer expect to pay more for a soda at the ballpark or the movie theater even though it\u2019s the [\u2026]",

        "raw_content": "\u00ab Lotte Reiniger\u2019s Magic Scissors\nBluemner Recalled\n\u201cWhen you feel colors, you will understand the why of their forms.\u201d\u2013Oscar Bluemner\nI\u2019ve written several times about Oscar Bluemner, an early and relatively obscure Modernist painter. Since stumbling across him a decade or so ago, I have an affinity to his work and much of his outlook on it. He worked mainly with color and shape but didn\u2019t work in pure abstraction, believing that the subject must be based on the real world in order to fully communicate with the viewer. And the subject itself not nearly so important as the color and forms employed and the emotions they depicted. Those are things that ring with me.\nI\u2019m replaying below my first post about Bluemner from back in 2011 with the addition of a few other paintings and a nice video of his work. Enjoy.\nI look at the work of a lot of artists and usually see something I can relate to in much of it. It might be the way a color sings or the way the painting is put together or in the expressiveness of a line. Or just in simple emotion. But very seldom do I stumble upon the work of an artist who I immediately feel as though I am sharing the same perspective.\nSuch is the case with Oscar Bluemner.\nI came across his work a few years back. I saw an ad for a piece of his in an art mag and was captivated. There was something very familiar to me in it which made me want to know more. But I could find little about Bluemner. This was strange because he was in the right circles where one would think he would get some attention even if only by association. The German-born painter, who was born in 1867 and moved to the US in 1893, was part of the Modernist painters group of the early 20th century represented by Alfred Stieglitz , famed photographer/gallerist and husband of Georgia O\u2019Keefe. His work hung in solo shows at Stieglitz\u2019s famed NYC gallery and in the fabled Armory Show of 1913. You would think there would be no shortage of material on him or that his name would raise the image of some piece of his work.\nBut Oscar Bluemner had a knack for failing. He was trained as an architect and designed the Bronx Borough Courthouse. However, he was not paid for his services and the seven year court battle that ensued drove him away from architecture and into the world of art, where his paintings never garnered the attention or lasting reputation of his contemporaries. He sold little and lived in abject poverty, which is said to have attributed to his wife\u2019s early death and ultimately to his suicide in 1938.\nBut there is something in his work that I immediately identify with when I see it. It\u2019s as though I am seeing his subjects in exactly the same way as he did and would be making the same decision he made when he was paainting them. His trees feel like my trees is the way they expressively curve and his colors are bold and bright. His building are often windowless with a feeling of anonymity. His suns and moons are solid presences in the sky, the focal points of many of his pieces. In this piece to the right, Death, he uses the alternating abnds of color to denote rows in the field as I often do and has his twisted tree rising from a small knoll in the forefront of the picture.\nI find myself saying to myself that I could very easily have painted these same pictures. It\u2019s odd because it\u2019s not a feeling that I\u2019ve experienced before even with the artists whose work I think has most influenced me and with which I feel a real connection. And it feels even odder because I didn\u2019t become aware of Bluemner\u2019s work until long after I had established my own vocabulary of imagery.\nThere are finally a few things out there online about Oscar Bluemener. You can see more of his images now than you could even a few years back. The Whitney in NYC had a retrospective of his work in 2005 (here\u2019s a review) and that seemed to raise awareness of his work. So maybe a few more people, a new generation, will finally see what I see in Bluemer\u2019s work.\nPosted in Favorite Things, Influences | Tagged Influence, Oscar Bluemner | 2 Comments\non September 21, 2017 at 9:12 am | Reply sheilakortiz\nThanks for sharing. I see what you are saying. The artist Robert Pinkham Ryder comes to mind as well.\nYes, I feel many of those same things about Ryder myself. His rhythm and forms, the darkness of his coloring- these things really appeal to me.",

        "raw_content": "by John Hendrix\nI was raised with stories of the Dutch Resistance and the Canadian liberators fighting against the brutal Nazis \u2013 war, it seemed, had clear villains and obvious heroes. Later, though, I learned that right and wrong in war can be far more confusing: for example, in recent years we\u2019ve seen US-backed groups fighting other US-backed groups in Syria.\nJohn Hendrix\u2019s Shooting at the Stars: The Christmas Truce of 1914 presents parents with a tool to give our children a more nuanced understanding of war.\nIn a style that is halfway between realistic and cartoon, the author tells us the events of Dec. 24 and 25, 1914. On the day of Christmas Eve, 1914, all along the frontlines, the shooting slowed, and that night the Germans could be heard singing Stille Nacht, Heilige Nacht \u2013 \u201cSilent Night, Holy Night.\u201d Then the next morning, on Christmas Day, in spots up and down the frontlines, German, British, and French troops spontaneously came out of their trenches and celebrated Christmas together.\nThe next day they returned to killing one another.\nDoes that make this book sound anti-war? I\u2019d say it is more an underscoring of just how horrible war is. Fighting is sometimes necessary, which is why we are grateful for the courage of the Dutch Resistance and the Allied forces in World War II, who understood that stopping the Nazis was worth risking, and even giving, their lives. We need to remember their sacrifice because it was noble, and selfless, and good.\nBut if war gives us examples to admire and imitate, there is also much that is foolish, and which we must learn to avoid. To give our children a more complete understanding of war, we need to show them that there are those who, under the guise of patriotism, rush to war even though war should always be a last resort. There are leaders who do not treat their young men\u2019s lives as precious, and World War One is an example of that right up to the last day when 11,000 soldiers died in fighting that occurred after the peace treaty was signed. Commanders who sent their men out on offensives on that last day \u2013 some from our side \u2013 should be remembered as murderers.\nShooting at the Stars is a gentle way of teaching the ethical complexities of war. It is gentle in that no blood or gore is seen (making this suitable for maybe Grade Three and up). The most war-like illustration occurs on a two-page spread where we see three corpses, as soldiers on both sides work together to bury their dead. What is striking is simply that there were men on both sides who could praise God together one day and fight to the death the next. That is a shocking bit of history. And it needs to be remembered.\nRelated Items:Children's Book Review, featured, picture books, World War I",

United States: Elsevier. Retrieved from https://doi.org/10.1016/j.bone.2017.12.007\nBackground Hip fractures are associated with considerable morbidity and mortality. Hip fracture incidence varies across different levels of accessibility/remoteness and socioeconomic status (SES). As part of the Ageing, Chronic Disease and Injury Study, we aimed to map the pattern of hip fractures across the western region of the Australian state of Victoria, which contains a range of remoteness levels and SES. Methods Data on hip fractures resulting in hospital admission were extracted from the Victorian Admitted Episodes Dataset (VAED) for men and women aged 40 + years during 2010\u20132013 inclusive. An age-adjusted incidence rate (per 10,000 population/year) was calculated for the entire region. Crude incidence rates and length of acute care hospital stay (excluding rehabilitation) were calculated for each Local Government Area (LGA). The impact of aggregated age, accessibility/remoteness index of Australia (ARIA) and SES on hip fracture rates aggregated across LGAs was determined using Poisson regression. Results For men, the age-standardised rate of hospitalisations for hip fracture across the whole region was 19.2 per 10,000 population/year (95%CI 18.0\u201320.4) and for women, 40.0 (95%CI 38.3\u201341.7). The highest incidence rates for both sexes occurred in the less accessible LGAs of Yarriambiack and Hindmarsh, as well as the LGA with the lowest SES, Central Goldfields. In both sexes, approximately two thirds of individuals were discharged from acute hospital care within 14 days. Increasing age, higher remoteness and lower SES were all associated with higher hip fracture rates. Conclusion Crude incidence rates varied by location. Given that a high proportion of patients had acute hospital care of \u2264 14 days, and accessibility and SES were associated with hip fracture rates, these results can inform policy and provide a model for other groups to conduct similar research in their local environment",

        "raw_content": "\u00ab What is a bulldog?\nThe bear that thrives \u00bb\nFrom the time I was child, I knew my passion.\nGrowing up in the backwoods of West Virginia is a blessing and a curse. It\u2019s a curse because it assumed by those living outside your native district that you are some sort of savage who cannot use the queen\u2019s English properly, makes regular use of the outhouse, and never wears shoes.\nAnd now it\u2019s mixed up with an assumption that you must have a laundry list of right-wing political views, which I obviously don\u2019t.\nBut the blessing of having been raised in a part of America that has been left to go wild is that I know what living things are.\nMy grandmother was an ardent photographer, and one of the earliest photos of me that she took is me standing next to a chipping sparrow chick. The photo shows a half- feathered out chick that had experienced the misfortune of falling out of its mother\u2019s nest. Such a bird\u2019s fate is usually sealed once the long veil of the night descends upon the scene and the various denizens of darkness come to prowl.\nBut the look on my face shows no knowledge of the horror that will soon come. Three-year-old me is enthralled by it. I guess I had seen so many chipping sparrows fly away from me that I couldn\u2019t help but have my curiosity piqued at this one that simply could not.\nI have always been this way. When I was very young, trips to the North Carolina coast would mean my grandparents would take me to the aquarium several times a day. And when a Hereford cow got loose and had her calf by my swing set, my parents told me years later that it \u201cmade my day.\u201d\nI still felt that passion years later when a big coyote followed one of my golden retrievers out of a thicket. The two canids strolled up to within ten feet of me. When the coyote realized that it had foolishly approached me, it stopped and stared for no more than two seconds before bolting off as it had seen the angel of death. I can still remember those wild amber eyes, their intensity, their intelligence, and their terror. It was a dark gray wild dog, the one so despised by all around me, and yet I felt no hatred toward it.\nIt was more like awe and reverence.\nAnd to be truly honest, I was more amazed at the European brown hares and rooks that I saw in the hayfields around Stonehenge than the famous pile of rocks itself. I\u2019d only ever read of European brown hares, and to see one in the flesh was oddly cathartic.\nMy teenage and early adulthood trips to the North Carolina coast weren\u2019t so tied to the aquarium. By that time I\u2019d been given the liberty to wander the beach on my own, and walking just beyond the easily accessed parts of the public beach on this Outer Bank, I was able to wander into a world of shorebirds, gulls, pelicans, dolphins, and ghost crabs. One day on my travels I happened upon a dead pygmy sperm whale that had washed up on the beach. Only a few months before I had read all about these small whales, and as I began to marvel at it, someone asked what kind of whale it was.\nAnd I couldn\u2019t stop myself from answering. I explained what it was and what it ate and its relationship to the cachalot. I can\u2019t remember what I said, but I know I had to have been a better marine biologist than George Costanza.\nMy passion is what has been called \u201canimate creation,\u201d but as someone who accepts evolution, such a term really doesn\u2019t fit. These are the other beings, our cousins forged just as we were in the long journey of natural selection.\nIn my secondary education, I forsook my passion to study what was safe. I knew I was never going to be any kind of biologist, so I turned to history and social science.\nAnd did well.\nBut nothing in the affairs of our own species can bring out my true self in the same way animals can.\nPerhaps it is because unlike our kind, they are not sullied with delusions of grandeur or entitlement. They know only to exist and live as their natural history dictates.\nAnd there is something oddly appealing about such an arrangement.\nBut so outside the grasp of a mere human being.\nOur kind truly is cast from the Garden for good, and yet I want to have taste of it, if only for the tiny bit that one can glean from a brief sojourn.\nThis is what makes me live.\nThere is a sweetness to it.\nIf only I could taste more.\nPosted in deep thought | 3 Comments\nI too remember my trips to England best for the birds. I got to see, in the flesh, so many of the birds listed in my early readings. What struck me the most was how tame the birds were\u2013especially in London\u2019s parks and along the seaside in Scarborough, Yorks.\non January 24, 2015 at 5:32 pm dogsandwolvessmartoldlady\nI too have a passion for animals, despite being reared in a city. In 1954, I was lucky enough to marry a Maine Guide who lived in the wilderness, and my passikon exteneded to all other animals, even bobcats. My present husband and I lived in Rhode Island\u2019s dense woodlands, 35 acres of which belonged to us. We moved back to the city in 1995, and discovered that possums, skunks, raccoons, foxes, coyotes, and even the occasional deer visited our yard. On summer walks, we frequently see a mother raccon and her babies nesting in the eaves of old houses, which ablound here. I even like rats and mice\u2013so long as they\u2019re not in our house..See my blog to read of my animal experiences. In February, my book \u201cHumans, Dogs, and Civilization\u201d will be an ebook and it should be out as a print book some time after that.",

This year is the tenth annual auction, an accomplishment for our downtown organizers and a tribute to the area folks who support art in our community. Each year a selection of artists, near and far, paint whatever their creativity desires. Over a span of several months, these banners are painted, displayed along our main street, and then auctioned off to anxious bidders hoping to take home their favorites. It\u2019s an amazing sight, the large ballroom with over 40 banners lined high around the room. It takes your breath away.\nThere have been years that I did not attend the auction. Sitting amongst a large crowd of people while they bid on your art, is near excruciating. It\u2019s different than selling a piece of your own art, I can do that all day long. So, what\u2019s the difference? I suppose it\u2019s the lack of control, the sitting there listening to a diverse group of people place their value on YOUR art. That doesn\u2019t take place in any other occupation or hobby, does it? What if your job, your expertise, was auc tioned off to the highest bidder? What is that worth? Uncomfortable, right?\nThis year, as much as I want to be there, I will miss the auction on November 4, 2017. As scheduling would have it, I\u2019ll be in Arizona for a juried art festival. Bittersweet. Hopefully I\u2019ll be able to watch from afar. In its tenth year, the Banner Art Auction will be a great one. I\u2019ve seen all the work and it\u2019s incredible. Many people don\u2019t realize what an art hub we have here in western Kansas. Amongst the many jewels in our area, creativity is surely one of them. Congratulations go to Garden City Downtown Vision for all the auction fundraisers prior and especially for this milestone year.\nTickets are still available at the Downtown Vision office, 120 E. Laurel Street, Garden City, KS 67846. For questions, you can contact them at vision@gcdowntown.com OR 620-276-0891.

It was a successful convention, I think most of the people had a good time, and I am a bit tired.\nFriday, robot_grrl took off after a breakfast at Einstein Brothers to visit with some of her former co-workers.\nI spent some time in the room, and then later downstairs, adjusting the registration program to be able to print out a press badge. I had made sure it could print a badge a few years ago, but had never made it so that it would be visible under our current badges (we switched from portrait to landscape last year). This took a little while, but I had it working before we had to set up too far.\nAbout 10:00, my staff started showing up and we got the room set up. Fairly early on, Dave (not dave_ifversen) who was helping out on my staff this year (and we hope to get him back for next year) made the very welcome suggestion that we get a table from the hotel to keep stuff on along the wall away from the computers (and by the door).\nWe were set up and got opened easily by 1:00. The next 9 hours disappeared into their usual haze. About 10:00 we started shutting down, and I made a final run to take the cash to the safe deposit, and the cash box and other stuff to Ops for overnight registration. By the time I got back, Helen had been dealing with a steady trickle of latecomers who were getting badges. By about 10:35 or 10:40 we managed to get the door shut and I took the additional cash to the cash box and finally caught up with robot_grrl and we hit up some parties. The party scene was pretty quiet this year, but there were a few. We put in an appearance at the Chicago in 2012 bid party, and spent a few minutes in the Minicon party. We then returned to our room and went to bed.\nTara wants to check her e-mail. So I'll continue later.",

        "raw_content": "By inspector October 22, 2018 Roofing No Comments\nRoofing in general and roof inspections in particular need the human touch. Roof Inspection Reports is dedicated to keeping abreast of all the latest in technological innovation in the industry. So, we have become aware of the trend, particularly in the US, for the use of drones to aid in roof inspections.\nThis is a controversial issue, with opinions divided over whether software is as sharp as the human eye or not. The newest drones being used for roofing inspections in the US are equipped with 4K cameras for maximum clarity. Images taken from the 4K cameras can be run through machine learning software to detect anomalies in the images, which indicate the presence of damage.\nSome roof inspectors in the US are finding that by flying drones to take photographs over buildings of three stories and higher they can save time and therefore money. The claim is that it also has the potential to increase accuracy.\nAutomation versus the human touch: The burning question\nAutomation certainly has its place in the roofing industry. It is used in many of the processes for the manufacture and installation of roofs. But roofing is also an industry that has very high needs for the irreplaceable human touch.\nWhile Roof Inspection Reports acknowledges the potential of drone and camera technology to assist in the preparation of the highest quality, reliable roof inspections, we are not yet prepared to endorse their use.\nThere remain questions about the accuracy of the camera images \u2013 whether a spot in a photograph can be interpreted as accurately as the human eye can interpret it as either a harmless blister or hail damage. We remain committed to the accuracy of our highly experienced and professional eyes.\nRoof Inspection Reports will continue to monitor developments in drone and camera technology with a view to continuing to commit to the highest quality professional processes that will support the highest quality roof inspection reports for our clients.\nContact Roof Inspection Report today for all your roof inspection needs.",

Even in death, God calls us to love and care for our dear ones and treat their earthly remains with dignity. At St. Vincent de Paul we are blessed to have a cemetery. Our cemetery is a living expression of these truths.\nThe first records of interment at St. Vincent de Paul Cemetery is in 1856, about 2 years after the founding of St. Vincent de Paul Church in Osseo. Throughout the years since, the Cemetery has been a place for parishioners and other families to honor lives of loved ones. Today there are approximately 3,500 buried at St. Vincent de Paul Cemetery. Only a few unsold graves remain in the original Cemetery. In 1934, the Parish purchased farmland acreage directly to the south of the established cemetery, and in 2007 obtained approvals to expand for the long term future.\nIn 2014 we opened our expansion. The expansion contains garden and courtyard sections with over 300 new traditional grave sites, more than 70 cremation grave sites, and a beautifully designed columbarium that contains more than 300 niches for cremation. The expansion also includes numerous new opportunities to remember and commemorate our loved ones, with monuments and walkways, as well as a new location for outdoor Mass and other liturgical services.\nWe are honored to help you during this life transition.\nExpansion Dedication 30 Photos",

        "title": "Capitol Peak (and I discovered I will risk my life) | next adventure",
        "raw_content": "Capitol Peak (and I discovered I will risk my life)\nAs you know, Capitol was planned to be the piece de la resistance, the 28th summit over 14,000ft of my 28th year, and we were to summit on the morning of my birthday. It is occasionally referred to as the most technically difficult 14er in Colorado, and it certainly makes the top 5 for most dangerous and most deadly due to its long ridge ascent that is sometimes class 4, very exposed, includes challenging route finding, and, of course, the crossing of the famous \u201cknife edge\u201d ridge.\nCapitol Peak (14,130ft) 17miles, 5300ft gain\nthar she is, so far in the distance, to the left\nDan and I at the TH\nWe had the game plan of hiking in to the lake (5.5miles from the TH) on Thursday so we could be ascending to the ridge early in the day on Friday, giving us the best possible chance to summit. We left later than we had planned, and then there was the snow. Oh, did I forget to mention? It\u2019s been snowing ALL WEEK in the Elk Range and there is now FEET of snow. So in order to set up before nightfall, and because we assumed the temperatures would be even lower near the lake, we made camp a mile or so out from the lake in a relatively flat area beneath some trees.\nThis was taken not very far into the hike, as you can tell because we\u2019re not dragging ourselves through snow yet\nI crawled immediately into my sleeping bag, hoping to get warm, because as darkness fell shit was getting cold. To no avail. I did my best to eat my frozen peanut butter and jelly sandwich and drink some water because I knew I needed to, but it\u2019s hard when you\u2019re cold. That might be the biggest struggle, is that you don\u2019t want to eat or drink. Dan brought me a bottle of boiling hot water to put in my sleeping bag with me and that was a real game changer. Not to imply that I slept more than about 45min total over the course of that horrible night. This was my first experience in winter camping. Don\u2019t let the horribleness of the situation fool you, now I\u2019m hooked on winter camping. It was 15 degrees that night.\nThis was taken on my birthday morning. It\u2019s what it looks like to camp in January. But it was October.\nWaking up in the morning, you have to surrender your sleeping bag and put your shoes back on, that have frozen completely solid. You know that when you get moving, there\u2019s a better chance of being warm again, but that seems very far in the future. Dan said, \u201cHappy Birthday, Sarah.\u201d Yep.\nDuring a river crossing, I slipped off the snow covered log I was on and ended up directly in the river. We also refilled water bottles here, and let me tell you that ice cold mountain river water is the freshest water I\u2019ve ever tasted. Up until just before the lake we were fortunate enough to be following a trail that a man with two horses and a dog had made (I suppose he was an actual cowboy), but his trail disappeared and we were left to break trail through knee deep snow on our own. Breaking trail is so much work. At the lake, you turn and head up the ascent to the saddle that will bring you to the ridge.\nHere\u2019s the ridge. We\u2019d be hiking up to the saddle on the left just out of the picture. The right is Capitol Peak.\nThis part was arduous. I imagine when it\u2019s not covered by feet of snow, the trail switchbacks because it\u2019s so steep. You do a lot of sliding back down, and some parts I couldn\u2019t even bring myself back up to standing and ended up crawling to a less slippery place. My feet were freezing but my torso was burning up and sweating. It\u2019s that weird feeling like you\u2019re warm again, but that\u2019s a very tenuous moment. Dan and I sat on the saddle for a few minutes, eating frozen clif bars and speculating about the upcoming ridge.\nUp until this moment, we had been thinking that the ridge looked rocky, like the snow had mostly blown off of it. We could see now that most of the ridge was covered in several feet of snow, including terrifying cornices that obscured the actual location of the ridge itself. Heading out, Dan tested traversing through a cornice and it was successful. Each success doesn\u2019t really make you less afraid, I think. But it does make you more likely to go on to the next dangerous decision and choose to keep going. There was a bit of steep scree scrambling that was unsettling as it was mired with ice, then some technical climbing. Dan waiting for me at the top of this bit and once I stepped onto the rock above and he turned to take a step forward, the cornice beside us, one foot away, broke off suddenly and avalanched down the side of the mountain. I think that moment was the hardest my heart has ever beaten. [I\u2019m unsure if it\u2019s acceptable to use avalanche as a verb\u2026I\u2019ll look into that in the future]\nWe kept going.\nThis was the steep scree bit followed by the technical bit.\nBefore each increasingly dangerous obstacle, Dan would turn around and say \u201cyou okay?\u201d and I\u2019d say \u201cI\u2019m okay if you\u2019re okay\u201d and we\u2019d trudge on. There was another technical bit that made it apparently exactly what class 4 is-it\u2019s complete vertical climbing with very obvious ledges and handholds, kind of like 5-.2. Another interesting section as most of the good foot ledges were covered in ice and snow. The best part of this bit was, directly underneath it is a slide into a gully that would likely result in 100\u2019s of feet. Do you remember the first time I climbed, and I was fascinated that each time you make a move and take a risk, it feels very much like you\u2019re risking your life, but you\u2019re really not because someone at the other end of the rope will catch you. In this moment, the risk was very much your life, and you don\u2019t think you\u2019ll make a mistake but you don\u2019t know. This was a pivotal moment, I realized I will without flinching risk my life to touch the sky. Before you judge me for that, is it so much better to waste it?\nAs we began the traverse around K2, the snow got increasingly deeper and it seemed we were not only casually walking into the complete unknown (wtf is under 3-4ft of snow? we don\u2019t have any idea what we\u2019re stepping on) but also putting ourselves right in the middle of what could later be a big old snow slide. After a decent amount of this waist deep trail breaking, we stopped and looked at each other. We agreed it was time to go back. The truth was, we had long since passed any idea of \u201csafety\u201d and although successfully crossing various obstacles made us believe it was okay to attempt increasingly harder ones, the second half of the ridge promised to be much more terrifying, much more technical, more exposed, etc and when we reached those obstacles it was going to become more and more likely that we really wouldn\u2019t be able to cross them at all. The danger we could see, too, was that even if we kept going, made it past the knife edge and other terrifying ice and snow covered feats, by the time we got back we might not be able to cross snowy traverse we were standing in without a snow slide that would certainly be fatal, due to the perfect sunshine that would\u2019ve beaten on it for hours.\nIt just gets deeper from here.\nI knew when I chose the most epic of peaks that there was a risk of not making the summit on my birthday. Even before the early-season snow. I knew I would be bummed if we didn\u2019t make it. But, attempting that ridge in January conditions was the most epic thing I\u2019ve tried. At the point where we decided to turn around, I was not upset at all. I knew I\u2019d get my 28th summit. Last year on my birthday, I went shopping at the second hand store, got ice cream for Lu and I, and had dinner with my girlfriend at the time (and she was late). This could not have been a more perfect way to cap off a year of doing epic shit, of blazing, of adventuring.\n28 fourteeners did not actually seem possible when I considered the idea. But, I\u2019m not the type to let such little things stop me. I didn\u2019t finish today, but I will. And it will be epic.\nSide note: coming back across the ridge and downclimbing the technical sections might have been even more terrifying. We drank my summit beer on the hike out.\nadventure, camping, climbing, Colorado\nbackcountry, backpacking, fourteeners, hiking, mountains, winter, winter camping\n\u2190 27 (all systems go)\nkitchari cleanse (total mindf**k) \u2192",

        "raw_content": "THE NEW WORLD SHAPED BY TERRORISM AND MALIGN RELIGION\n\u201cIf you want total security, go to prison. There you\u2019re fed, clothed, given medical care and so on. The only thing lacking\u2026 is freedom. \u201d\nHomo homini lupus est. One man is wolf to another one but at the end of the day, wolves form packs and they stand up for each other. The people destroy their communities and they stand up against each other, with no mercy. Many philosophers warned that people could be beasts without laws. That is an ultimate truth. Unleashed and free, outlaw and wild, we are nothing but thinking beasts. That is why the modern homo sapiens can not live without society and regulations, control and punishment.No matter what, our common sense is still not so advanced that we wouldn\u2019t abuse our own freedom and endanger another\u2019s one security. Input and output. The Leviathan must be here or the beasts will be unlimited.\nHowever, in recent times, it seems that the Leviathan is tired and can\u2019t anymore handle the things that aren\u2019t supposed to be handled but eliminated.Our governments lose the battle with the accumulated problems of failed human and national security. They forgot to protect the basic democratic principles but to replace them with the excuses of the LSD imagination of the colorful monster of multiculturalism. You don\u2019t build the house of multiculturalism on the foundations of ideology of hatred, condemn and latent interests for final conquest. You simply do not give the free ride to the potential killer, especially if you have your own children in the car. Our beloved governments failed to protect their own citizens while they were trying to convince us that we need to help someone, somewhere and for some reason.\nThe seed of terrorism is everywhere grounded. It is not happening only in the burning Middle East but in our backyards. The egoistic oil race and geopolitical competition for the 21st century modern colonization have brought to us the plague from the far away areas. The blood, the tears and the pain of dying peace that has really never existed in the reality over there. The thousands of people without homes and future, without anything to hold on except the revenge if the chance for new life is not given. The generations of orphans that will be abused in the jaws of local and international prostitution if the Leviathan doesn\u2019t pass the crucial exam.The million possibilities for anyone, anywhere to hurt everyone, everywhere. The terrorism finally has got its own wings, it is produced, exported and imported, delivered and practiced. It is the part of our new world, the world of the security risks and challenges, of unrestrained beasts and leashed Leviathan.\nJust in this month, the April of 2017, there were so many terror attacks and incidents that could confirm the conservative fear for the endangered security and liberal fear from the empowered security. We wake up with the bad feeling in our guts that something bad will hit our lives again as it was on 3 April 2017, when a terrorist attack took a place on the Saint Petersburg Metro, between Sennaya Ploshchad and Tekhnologichesky Institut station. An explosive device caused the death of 7 people and hard injuries of 45. It is stated that the suspected terrorist was Akbarzhon Jalilov, a Russian citizen, ethnic Uzbek that was born in Kyrgyzstan. For all terrorism experts, it is very well known that many ethnic Uzbeks are motor fuel for the DAESH terrorism on the Russian land. Majority are simply paid fighters but there are those who share the sick ideology of the Islamic State.While the whole Russia was mourning the victims, the Western World, interested in democracy and human rights was worried not about the rise of domestic terrorism but about the rise of Putin popularity. The fact is that these times cry out for strong leaders and not the weak one that will be eaten up by the rats. Russia has a severe problem with the inside terrorist cells that are seeded by numerous illegal immigrants from Ex-Soviet Republics that participate silently in support of radical islam invasion. All what Vladimir Putin is doing now is trying to enhance his own unbothered governance through the ensuring the safety to his people.\nThen, comes the shocking footage of the chemical weapons attack in Syria. The U.S. is blaming Assad for chlorine gas, used in northern rebel-held zone. The terrible photos from the ground could make us scream on the demonized humanity,but I am also wondering why the U.S. and the western coalition haven\u2019t done anything regarding the Islamic State virus in Syria and Iraq!?For them, it is just a one right move and the DAESH is done so the horror over there. But, the truth is that the interest areas have not been decided yet and the sides do not want to give more than they will get so in the meantime, the deadly chlorine gas is killing the children in the weeks when the Christians are getting ready for the biggest feast, the Easter.\nThe romantic Christian feelings are disturbed by the european terror attack, in Stockholm, The social media started with the \u201cPray for Stockholm\u201d but in this case the prayers do not solve the essential security problems. Sweden has imported the all evil of the world, embracing the killers as the victims. I personally believe that this beautiful country is the first easy prey of the malign and forced immigration from the brutal world. No go zones in Sweden could be maybe manipulated by fake news and internet gossip, but the Sweden reality is worse, like the whole underground world is now up, turning the Sweden into the hallway of hell. The latest terror attack in the capital was when the hijacked 30-tonne truck came into pedestrians at a busy department store, killing 4 people and injuring 15. The suspected is Rakhmat Akilov from Uzbekistan, the failed asylum seeker. Only to remind, Sweden has the highest asylum requests because of its own liberal standards. In 2015, there were more than 150.000 requests for asylum and some are solved negatively but there are still 3.000 of illegal immigrants in Stockholm. Rakhmat Akilov was just one of them, marked to be deported in 2014. The irony is that one of the victim, Ma\u00eflys Dereymaeker, 31 was a belgian social worker that worked and helped the asylum seeker.\nPalm Sunday attack in Egypt has delivered the death to 44 Christians and hurt more than 100 in the two of the coptic Churches. It has been carried out by ISIS and it confirmed that the darkness rules for Christian population in Egypt. It also confirms that the supporting lines of DAESH are enough strong to act separately in North Africa. The lack of security will cause the economical damage to Egypt in the following period because the country lives on tourism.\nSome weeks ago, the UK has had its debacle with terrorism, Westminster terror attack on March, 22 2017.Maybe for the first time, the whole population over there was sure that the Brexit was the right choice.\nThe Europe is fighting with the autoimmune disease. It is killed from inside. The problem are not only the radicalized immigrants but also the conflict between the hard and soft stream. The conservative want the borders being shut down and protected and the security to be empowered. The liberal orientation keep dreaming about John Lennon\u2019s world. The fact is that world doesn\u2019t exist anymore, all we have now is real survival and in the following period, the road between being human and survive will be tight. Then, we must be able to go in the right directions, hoping it is not too late for humans to escape the beasts.\n4 thoughts on \u201cTHE ROAD OF THE BEASTS: HUMAN SECURITY TODAY\u201d\nAn exceptionally good article dear Sarah. Thank you very much for sharing. Our governments in the west and the US have been losing the battle against terrorism because they are not serious about fighting it, and always trying to solve the problem backward. There is nothing wrong with multiculturalism if the governments did the proper things when adding different flavors to our societies from different cultures and background. As you mentioned, our governments should always do a background check before allowing individuals into our countries. This alone would not resolve the problem from the roots. We as civilized countries should treat the troubled Middle East with fairness. We can\u2019t sell radical groups there weapons and not to expect such groups to turn our weapons on us. We can\u2019t deprive them peace and democracy by assign poppets rulers on them and expect them to like us. If we in the west would like to enjoy our peace, security, and democracy, we must sincerely act on the Middle East and establish peace and democracy over there.\nThank you, Sarah, for an excellent article! This article affects all of us and is, therefore, critical to all of us ! First, let\u2019s discuss the nature of the problem, and second, let\u2019s discuss the solution.\nAnalytically, there are two parts to the problem of terrorism, namely, the interpretation of religion, as portrayed by certain factions, and the economical factor! In reality, however, the two work hand in hand !\nThe first component is that certain factions, or special-interest groups, portray religion or religious requirements so as to gain ground in their battle to power and control! In so doing, they brain wash the uneducated and unenlightened portion of the population in order to sway their mind and win their battle!\nThe second component is the economical factor, which is the fuel that energizes the aforementioned portion of the population, as it is struggling to survive.\nTherefore, those factions utilize that the economical factor to fuel their propaganda of East against West !\nUltimately, those groups are only interested in achieving their own agenda, which is to rise to power and to be in control! Religion is just a vehicle to achieve their goal!\nSecond, the solution:\nPart of the solution is to help less fortunate parts of the world so that the economical factor would be diminished. This would, in turn, reduce that \u201cfuel\u201d that the factions use to energize their base!\nAnother part of the solution is to have rigorous vetting of the people being accepted into a country in order to ascertain whether they are radicalized. While this is no easy task, it is, nevertheless, better than just admitting people without any background check.\nLast, but not least, the number of immigrants would have to be better regulated so that the immigrants would assimilate first before the arrival of another group of immigrants so as to avoid creating a \u201cmini foreign society \u201d within the main society, as this leads to heterogeneity, hence the problems you mentioned in your article, herein, as well as in your previous articles Crimmigration: \u201cThe case of Germany\u201d , and No-Go Areas: American and European Ghettos of Broken Dreams\u201d !\nThank you again, Sarah, for such a wonderful article ! As usual, it is both very interesting and very enlightening !\nSarah\u2019s provocative and insightful article commences with the ancient Latin proverb of \u2018Homo homini lupus est\u2019 (i.e. Among strangers, a man is a wolf rather than a human\u2026); drawn from the play entitled Asinaria, by Titus Maccius Plautus (c. 245-184 BCE). In turn, this reminded me of the legal precept of \u2018Qui tacet consentire videtur\u2019 (i.e. Silence is understood to give consent). My reference to this Latin expression being associated with the progenitor of the so-called War on Terror: very few people questioned the legitimacy of the decision by the US-government to invade both Afghanistan and Iraq. It was a trial by media. What should have occurred was a protracted debate on who would gain from the invasions, in a commercial context. This disputation did not take place, because of the direct relationship between the then US-government and specific multinational corporations associated with the fossil fuel industry and weapons manufacturing, predominantly.\nThe US-government began to invest in Central Asian and Western Asian assets during the decline of the former Soviet Union (i.e. late-1970s and the 1980s). The Taliban was specifically sponsored by the Reagan administrations, in Afghanistan. Again, nobody in North America was questioning this rapport between a secular Occidental government and the Orthodox Muslims, the Taliban; which was being set up as a potential post-Soviet pretext for endless warfare (i.e. a highly lucrative pursuit of powerful governments). The result is what we are living through now: the increasing spread of clandestinely sponsored (i.e. via Washington, D.C.) \u2018Muslim\u2019 terrorism. As Europe is geographically closer to Western Asia, it is being targeted much more so than North America. In the 1980s, the ultra-Right Wing think tanks of Washington, D.C. knew Western Europe would be a soft target for terrorists.\nIn the context of the history of terrorism, Western European scholars exclaim that the inceptive terrorism of humans began during the 1st century CE: the ultra-extremist Jews of Judaea (Roman province) employed terror to intimidate and murder any Jew who collaborated with the Romans. As today, these terrorists employed shock tactics, by hitting their targets in public areas; so as to place fear into the lives of Jews considering doing business with the Romans. Obviously, the Commandment of \u2018Thou shalt not kill\u2026\u2019 being put aside, conveniently.\nIn the 4th century CE, Christian terrorists (referred to as the Parabalani) in Alexandria in Egypt employed terrorism to eradicate paganism. One very prominent incident being the murder of the remarkable mathematician, astronomer and philosopher Hypatia, in 415 CE.\nThe Wall Street bombing of 1920 was orchestrated by Italian Anarchists (30 people killed and 143 seriously injured; as well as several horses being killed). The US-government did a deal with the Anarchists to leave North America without being prosecuted. This defused the situation, while the FBI was coming into being. Illustrating that the US-government has a protracted history of dealing with terrorist organizations.\nSeveral prominent history scholars and political activists (e.g. Howard Zinn and Noam Chomsky) argue that the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki constitute the two most horrendous acts of terrorism in human history, thus far. In the context of The Geneva Conventions (1864), this is correct; as civilians are not to be deliberately targeted in warfare. Pearl Harbor was a military target and the war crimes committed by the Japanese military in World War II were nothing in comparison to what the successive US-administrations had done to the aboriginals of North America, the people of The Philippines and to the Japanese themselves.\nTherefore, the international laws governing terrorism need to be applied holistically, and as such all US-presidents since George W. Bush are guilty of terrorism on a mass scale (e.g. 2 million plus civilians killed in Iraq since 2003 by the US-military).\nEspecially since the late-20th century, the successive US-administrations have invested (i.e. clandestinely) in terrorist organizations in order to accommodate certain aspects of US-Foreign Policy. This has included weapons training, communications and logistics; which have allowed organizations like ISIS to be effective and play its role of being a pretext for the so-called War on Terror (which has never been officially endorsed by the US-Congress).\nPandora\u2019s Box has most definitely been opened, and we are all affected by this\u2026 Though, as Sarah\u2019s article ends on an optimistic note for positive change, people can take courage from the fact that there are millions of Muslims across the world who are peaceful and do not support terrorism. They desire co-operation with non-Muslims and strive to assimilate into non-Muslim societies. It is only the extremists that threaten their own people (just like the ancient Jewish Zealots) not to assimilate and collaborate with non-Muslims\u2026 Clandestinely, this is supported by powerful Occidental governments, because it is so lucrative.\n\u30b7\u30e3\u30cd\u30eb\u9ad8\u984d\u8cb7\u53d6 says:",

        "raw_content": "THE COMING THIRD WORLD WAR OR AGGRESSIVE DIPLOMACY?\nWHERE HAS BEEN LOST THE COMMON SENSE OF INTERNATIONAL POLICY?\n\u201cIf the Third World War is fought with nuclear weapons, the fourth will be fought with bows and arrows.\u201d\n-Lord Louis Mountbatten\nThere is no peace there where decision makers think about war. It is not anymore about protection of national or even international security, it is all about manipulative and orchestrated policy that must be fed with power and fear at the same time. The current international politics is everything but not rational and logical. Instead of diplomatic solutions, we are witnessing the rise of threaten, that go to the limits of the whole humankind. The geostrategic players change their public statements but they do not change their interests to rule the chosen regions and resources. It is almost like a kind of Gladiator Fight but we are not sure who is the gladiator is and who is the lion and what is the most important, on whom we should stand by.\nPolitical rulers that try all the time to turn themselves into the iconic figures of our times have marked the world we live in. The bigger is country they represent, the greater is their madness, greed and absence of rational behavior in political arenas. They do not know how to start and how to finish their battles but they are qualified in shaping the conditions for war. I see the global policy through the eyes of JRR Tolkien and his Lord of the Rings. That is not an epic fantasy but a carefully wrapped political analysis of what has cursed this world since its beginning. The Guardian came out with one interesting observation:\u201d The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings aren\u2019t fantasies because they feature dragons, elves and talking trees. They\u2019re fantasies because they mythologise human history, ignoring the brutality and oppression that were part and parcel of a world ruled by men with swords. But we shouldn\u2019t be surprised that the wish to return to a more conservative society, one where people knew their place is so popular. It\u2019s the same myth that conservative political parties such as Ukip have always played on: the myth of a better world that has been lost, but can be reclaimed by turning back the clock.\u201d As we can understand, Tolkien wanted to bring more rules into the disordered reality. However, his heroes and the challenges they face up with, remind us on the international policy and its scary dragons that send the fire into the sleepy, peaceful cities. It is very thoughtful to follow the line of power in the Tolkien world of fairy tales. All those mythological creatures are glorious only because they have some kind of power. Elves are immortal and beautiful, humans are kings, warriors, the dwarfs are good miners, and hobbits are small, cute but irrelevant. The wizards make wonders while the egoism and greed rule the majority.\nLarry Kummer in his article about Foreign policy wrote: \u201cWe too live in Middle Earth, a nation with great and powerful wizards who can accomplish deeds beyond the imagination of lesser folks. Celebrities who live out their hedonistic fantasies, unrestrained by our laws and moral codes. Politicians to whom we give our hearts \u2014 such as Obama, Ron Paul. Wealthy businessnessmen who rape our economy, operating above our laws.These people own our government. Charities are determined by their priorities. Their hired hands write our laws, pass judgement in our courts. Their police suppress protests. The great Wall Street banks are engines shaping society to their design. The news media tell their narrative explaining events.\u201d\nThe global tragedy is more political than economical since the politics is a force that forms the complete economical fluctuations. You can\u2019t focus on economy without being influenced by political circumstances. That is exactly what the global players are doing. They are comparing their incomes and outcomes, searching for a profitable point. In the case of burning Middle Earth (Middle East), they are driven by desires to be the sand emperors, the oil kings without crowns. Only those who step into the fertile ground of natural resources will be those who build the new economic castle and class. The focus of gladiator fight is maybe on Syria but the whole region is damned by ring that rules them all.\nIf we just look on Trump and Putin, it is obvious that they are both made from the same material, heart of steel that goes into the flame of pride. They both compete to keep their homelands on the position of eagle, as never ending hunters. The problem is whom they hunt and how they hunt. Their actual crash is not from today but as it is predestinated that Russia and America must be the opposite sides, even in the case of common enemy, Islamic terrorism. That is such a kind of ancient genetic mode, as it is not possible for them to be cooperative on the international level or at least they pretend they are. President Trump is trying to play smart since he is having the domestic political troubles and coming Congress elections in November. He has to convince his own, divided folk that he is no a Russian rain man but stable leader that protects American national interests overseas. He is in a fever to make something spectacular, something that will enable him the place next to presidents that Americans are proud of. The Russian ruler is oligarch with hard-core political energy. He won\u2019t be happy to leave his playing floor without celebration. What does it mean? It means the age of tensions on the global scene with constant micro and macro conflicts that will not have mercy for neutral policy. It is to be expected that the most powerful EU states will give support to the US political modus operandi on the Middle East. This is because they have silent diplomatic tensions with Russia regarding the human rights and operational cover of the Assad\u00b4s regime in Syria. The USA is interested to empower its military strength after the passive period leaded by Obama Administration. Among first interest\u2019s zones is definitely Islamic Republic of Iran. The mentioned ayatollah land is an enemy of America for a longer period. Americans have a specific way of dealing with their enemies, through the elegant and invisible participations of government takeovers. Iran is a stubborn country, inspired by the hatred for Israel and moved by Shi\u2019ite Islam. Its role in Syrian horror could be also seen as the gladiator fight, against lions of Christianity, Judaism and Sunni Islam.\nIf Trump attacks Russia, it is sure that Putin won\u2019t stay calm and hesitate from activating own powerful weapons arsenal. The question is what will happen next. From Arab Spring to proxy wars, Middle earth conflict is all but not predictable and takes many sides into the pond of blood. UK, France and Germany must also pick their fronts, in spite of fact that they have imported the huge amount of Muslim immigrants with their own agendas. The liberal brainwashed immigration policy will costs Europe too much and that is exactly what brought the line of disagreement with conservative established Trump\u00b4s America.\nSomething that started as a local incident in the desert\u00b4s dust has turned into the oriental massacre helped by global rulers that are dreaming of pushing the red button and sending the whole Planet into the inferno. Tolkien knew that small people have no chance to survive in the big crisis but still Frodo was the one who destroyed the evil ring and brought the light back. It is always a hope and all we need is one, simple Frodo that will be indifferent on power and greedy to catch the final peace for all.\n3 thoughts on \u201cBLOODY SUNSET: ELVES VS. ORCS IN THE MIDDLE EARTH CHAOS\u201d\nSarah\u2019s imperative and highly relative article brought to mind the fact that Homo sapiens are self-destructive, fundamentally: it is inevitable that they are a doomed species; for logic and common sense are anathema to Commerce and all that is dedicated to it (e.g. Wall Street).\nBasically, Homo sapiens have encaged themselves in a perpetual world war since ancient times; just that the violence becomes more extensive and obvious, from time to time (e.g. Roman imperial expansion wars, the Mongol invasions and World War I). The absence of logic drives the elite leaders ever deeper into the abyss of self-destruction\u2026\nThe earliest recorded evidence of war belongs to a Mesolithic Age cemetery (Nile Valley, northern Sudan), which has been determined to be c. 14,000 years old: about 45% of the documented skeletons there display signs of violent death from combat. Since the emergence of the political state some 5,000 years ago, military activity has occurred over much of the world\u2026 One historian claims \u2018that 14,500 wars have taken place between 3500 BCE and the early-21st century; resulting in 3.5 billion deaths, and leaving only 300 years of relative world peace\u2019.\nConcerning murder, The World Health Organization (WHO) reported in 2017 that a person is murdered every 45 seconds, somewhere in the world; mostly, occurring in Brazil, Nigeria and The United States of America.\nSarah refers to \u2018The Lord of the Rings\u2019 in her article, and it is no coincidence that Professor J.R.R. Tolkien named \u2018Mordor\u2019 thus, because he was a professor of Anglo-Saxon, and the etymology of \u2018Mordor\u2019 derives from the Anglo-Saxon noun \u2018mor\u00f0or\u2019 (i.e. mortal sin/murder).\nIn an archaeological context, the oldest known case of murder dates to some 430,000 years ago: in 2015, archaeologists in The Atapuerca Mountains of northern Spain came across a skeleton whose skull possesses definitive injuries caused by a face-to-face encounter. The Book of Genesis (i.e. Abel & Cain) is a much more recent reference to murder.\nOne of the oldest-known prohibitions against murder appears in the Sumerian Code of Ur-Nammu written sometime between 2100 and 2050 BCE. The code states \u2018If a man commits a murder, that man must be executed\u2019.\nAs Mohandas K. Gandhi exclaimed \u2018An eye for an eye making the whole world blind\u2026\u2019\nWhat a profound article, Sarah ! Excellent writing and deep thinking !\nYes, I totally concur with you regarding greed and selfishness as some of the worst traits of human beings ! I equally concur with you as to the two main leaders, their personalities, and their misplaced egos !\nIn fact, both leaders are playing with fire and are unaware that they may trigger a Third World War, thus unleashing a cataclysmic event !\nThis is so remindful of your article \u201cSilent Hill: The humans were here\u201d ! Our world is definitely headed in that direction and down the path of destruction ! This time, however, it may be the last, as this would be the point of no return !\nWhat a shame that \u201chumans\u201d have learned neither from their own mistakes nor from history ! This time, with nuclear weapons, there will be no chance for survival for anyone, as the nuclear effect would continue to propagate in all directions and for a long time !\nIt\u2019s time humanity changed its trajectory and very quickly before it\u2019s too late ! Time is running out !\nOne good thing, however, would come out of this: This would declare the end of suffering for all Animals who have been slaughtered, butchered, and killed at the hands of evil \u201chumans\u201d !\nThank you, Sarah, for this wake-up call for everyone !\nShannon Bech says:",

        "raw_content": "A Late Night Monday , Or Is It Early Tuesday Review: Orphanage\nRobert Buettner's first novel opens with a quote from an anonymous letter fragment found on Omaha Beach: \"war is an orphanage\".\nMost of the characters in Orphanage are orphans of one form or another. Kinetic weapons from what appears to be an alien colony on Ganymede are devastating the world, killing millions. A multinational force is being put together in order to take the war to the enemies door - and Jason Wander is part of it. Driven to despair by the death of his mother in one of the first attacks, he signs up in the military to avoid a prison sentence. It's an unnatrractive alternative that finally helps him realise who he is, to find love and friendship, and a purpose. In the orphanage of war he finds a new family. Jason's story mixes military service with a touch of detective work into the true nature of the foe (alongside a forgiveable authorial trait of using authorial fiat to put him in the right place at the right time).\nThis is the positive side of military SF, a novel like Haldeman's Forever War that takes war and uses it to explore its effects on the people involved. This isn't a story of glory and of overwhelming might. It's the tale of a suicide mission with little hope of return, and of the people who choose it over the alternatives. Jason Wander is a flawed character who surmounts his flaws to take advantage of lucky accidents and to find an impossible route to some kind of victory.\nAn enjoyable read, avoiding much of mil-SF's didactic nature.\nThanks for your thoughtful review.\nThanks for your thoughtful comments on Orphanage. You understood the book's essence and expressed it clearly. I'll look forward to visiting your site for similarly insightful guides to other works. - Robert Buettner\n(Anonymous) : Thanks for your thoughtful review. [+0]",

        "raw_content": "Please. Education is not a horserace.\nWe Americans are selfish and self-centered. Peter Greene\u2019s tweet about DACA elsewhere in this post expresses it well\u2026as does this quote from Jim Wright in his Stonekettle Station post, Ship of Fools, where he says,\n\u201cF*** you, I got mine\u201d is a lousy ideology to build civilization on.\nPZ Myers, a curmudgeonly biology professor/blogger from Minnesota, discusses education\u2026and how it should NOT divide winners and losers. Education he says, is a process by which everyone should gain knowledge.\nWhen we make education a competition, we resign some students to the \u201closer\u201d category. What would be better for the long-term health of our society\u2026to have a large group of \u201closers\u201d trying to survive under the heel of the winners? or a society where everyone is educated with greater knowledge, where everyone grows up a winner?\nFrom PZ Myers\nThe mistake is to think of education as a game where there are winners and losers rather than an experience in which we try to make sure every single student comes out at the end with more knowledge. It\u2019s not a competition.\nThe so-called \u201ceducation reform\u201d movement has been successful at making the teaching profession unattractive. We are losing teachers at an alarming rate, and some schools are forced to fill classrooms with unqualified adults. Schools with more resources can afford to hire actual teachers, and schools with fewer resources \u2013 commonly those schools which serve low-income, high-minority populations \u2013 end up staffing classrooms with untrained teachers.\nIn order to overcome the shortage (as well as strike a blow against teachers unions) states, like Indiana, are adding pathways to teaching so unqualified adults can get into the classroom quicker.\nWhat kind of future are we building for ourselves?\nFrom Linda Darling-Hammond in The Answer Sheet\n\u2026even with intensive recruiting both in and outside of the country, more than 100,000 classrooms are being staffed this year by instructors who are unqualified for their jobs. These classrooms are disproportionately in low-income, high-minority schools, although in some key subjects, every kind of district has been hit. This is a serious problem for the children they serve and for the country as a whole.\n8 Powerful Voices in Defense of Public Education \u2013 Diane Ravitch\nThe Network for Public Education (NPE) is producing a series of videos in support of public education and against the movement to privatize our schools. NPE President, Diane Ravitch, is one of the strongest voices in support of public education today.\n[Betsy DeVos] is the first Secretary of Education in our history, who is actively hostile to public education. We\u2019ve never had this before.\nSchool Segregation, An Ever-Present Problem Across America\nHumanity\u2019s past is littered with wars, murders, assassinations, conquests, and other horrible events caused by our narrow, selfish, racist, and tribal, impulses. If we want to survive into the next century, we\u2019ll need to overcome those baser characteristics of our species\u2026and learn to accept that we are one, diverse, human race.\nHannah-Jones concludes: \u201cWhat the Gardendale case demonstrates with unusual clarity is that changes in the law have not changed the hearts of many white Americans.\u201d These articles\u2014Felton\u2019s and Hannah-Jones\u2019\u2014are worth reading together. They are a sobering update on America\u2019s long struggle with racism and the unresolved and very current issue of school segregation which is always accompanied by educational inequity. Quality education is supposed to be a right for all of our children, but we are a long way from having achieved justice.\nIntegrating Little Rock Central High School, September 25, 1957\nTeacher Appreciation As School Starts\nA personal relationship with another human being is an important part of \u201cpersonalized\u201d learning.\nWhile the focus appears to be on transforming teaching into digital competency-based instruction, or personalized learning, real human teachers are what make learning for every child personalized. That title was stolen from them.\nCredentialed school librarians: What the research says\nWe cheerfully spend billions on unvalidated tests and untested technology, yet we ignore the impressive research on libraries and librarians, and are unwilling to make the modest investments that will ensure that school libraries are well supplied with books and are staffed with credentialed librarians.\nThe Roman philosopher, Epictetus, wrote,\nWe must not believe the many, who say that only free people ought to be educated, but we should rather believe the philosophers who say that only the educated are free.\nThat is a concept which Americans would do well to learn. We are living at a time where people are proud of their ignorance.\nFrom Shiela Kennedy\nThere\u2019s a saying to the effect that the only foes that truly threaten America are the enemies at home: ignorance, superstition and incompetence. Trump is the trifecta.\nFiled under Anti-Intellectualism, Competition, Darling-Hammond, DeVos, library, NancyBailey, Quotes, Ravitch, Segregation, Stephen Krashen, TeacherShortage\nA Challenge: We\u2019re All Civics Teachers\nA few days ago, the Annenberg Public Policy Center released its annual Constitution Day Civics Survey. It\u2019s results suggest that we\u2019re all civics teachers, as well \u2013 or we ought to be.\nMore than half of Americans (53 percent) incorrectly think it is accurate to say that immigrants who are here illegally do not have any rights under the U.S. Constitution;\nMore than a third of those surveyed (37 percent) can\u2019t name any of the rights guaranteed under the First Amendment;\nOnly a quarter of Americans (26 percent) can name all three branches of government.\nIt\u2019s only slightly comforting that Americans probably know that we have the freedoms guaranteed in the Bill of Rights even though they might now know which Amendment they\u2019re in. But it is very disturbing (at least to me) that only about one-fourth of Americans surveyed can name all three branches of the government.\nOn September 17, 1787, 230 years ago today, delegates to the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia, signed the Constitution of the United States. It was ratified nine months later, and went into effect 18 months later.\nThe challenge: Teach it.\nComments Off on A Challenge: We\u2019re All Civics Teachers\nFiled under Constitution\nXQ: Debunked Assertions and False Assumptions\nPDK Poll: PARENTS LIKE THEIR LOCAL PUBLIC SCHOOLS\nLast month, the PDK/Gallup poll of the public\u2019s attitudes towards the public schools was released. The findings were consistent with previous years: Americans support their local public schools.\nPublic schools get their highest grades from those who know them best: public school parents.\n\u2026Americans made clear in last year\u2019s PDK poll that they would rather see a school stay open and improve than start from scratch\u2026\nMore than 70% of public school parents gave their children\u2019s schools high marks. 84% of Americans don\u2019t want their public schools closed. They would prefer to spend resources improving them instead of closing them.\nThe largest problem, according to the poll, is lack of funding.\nSince 1969, the poll\u2019s first question has been about the biggest problems facing the local public schools. As has been the case since 2002, the most common answers referred to lack of funding, cited by 22% this year. But that\u2019s down from an average of 34% from 2009 to 2014, in the aftermath of the Great Recession.\nAmericans, it seems, are happy with their public schools. They don\u2019t want them closed and replaced by unregulated charter schools. They don\u2019t need vouchers. They want to keep and improve their local schools.\nCORPORATE REFORM STRIKES BACK WITH DEBUNKED ASSERTIONS\nYou wouldn\u2019t have learned anything about the PDK poll if you watched the corporate propaganda tool TV show, \u201cXQ Super School Live,\u201d on all four networks last week. The focus was on how public schools (all of them, apparently) are not keeping up with the times and \u201cfailing\u201d.\nPerhaps the media\u2019s constant bashing of public schools, this show as an example, is one of the reasons the PDK poll showed that people think the nation\u2019s schools are failing \u2013 even though their own neighborhood schools are graded higher. The fact that parents like their local public schools was ignored on \u201cXQ Super School Live.\u201d\n\u201cXQ Super School Live\u201d began with the usual debunked assertions about American public schools. According to them, our high schools are \u201cfailing\u201d because they\ndon\u2019t graduate as many students as other countries\nare \u201c31st in math\u201d\nare \u201c20th in language skills\u201d\nare \u201c19th in science\u201d\nThere was no discussion of the fact that American public schools accept everyone and support the largest percentage of students in poverty in the developed world. When sorted by poverty rate American students perform as well or better than most students in the world. The sheer numbers of students living in poverty in the U.S. (the second most in the developed world) accounts for our lower test score average. See The Myth of America\u2019s Failing Public Schools.\nThroughout the program, there was no disclaimer which explained that some of the schools highlighted in the show have selective admissions\u2026wihch could mean some lower performing students are excluded. In addition, the schools highlighted are all the recipients of huge ($10 million) grants (XQ Super Schools). What could your neighborhood school do with $10 million?\nThere was no discussion of schools whose students were poisoned with lead by the mismanagement and neglect of the state, and then left without proper educational resources.\nThere was no discussion of the many American schools with halls, stairwells, classrooms, and bathrooms that look like this:\nThe implication of the program was that American schools are old and inadequate\u2026that pedagogy is unchanged since the industrial revolution\u2026that our young people are stuck in a system that hasn\u2019t changed for 100 years. The new, cool, innovativeness of the \u201cSuper Schools\u201d was emphasized by the singing and dancing of clean, well-fed, well-clothed, motivated professional actors and entertainers children.\nXQ\u2019s FALSE ASSUMPTIONS ARE NOT THE REAL WORLD OF AMERICAN HIGH SCHOOLS\nMost public high schools \u2013 the ones without the $10 million grant from Steve Jobs widow, Laurene Powell Jobs \u2013 are filled with teachers and students who are struggling to do their best, often under difficult conditions. The assumption that there is no innovation or no modernization in today\u2019s high schools is false. The assumption that the \u201crules\u201d in schools are holding them back (read: nasty teacher union contracts), or that the construct and form of schools are \u201cwritten in stone,\u201d is false. There are innovative public schools in America and many have one thing in common; adequate (or better) funding and support from the community at large.\nAsk yourself, \u201cWhere are the struggling schools in America?\u201d Invariably, the answer to that question is \u201cThey are in struggling, high-poverty communities.\u201d\nAmerican public schools in wealthy areas produce high achieving students who can compete with any other students in the world. Why? Because the schools are well-resourced. The students come to school with their basic needs met; adequate food, health care, and safety. The teachers are supported and their contributions are acknowledged.\nI\u2019m sure that the families and students who attend the schools that Laurene Powell Jobs is funding appreciate her contributions. But the vast majority of students in the United States attend schools without a wealthy benefactor. Many of those students go to schools where innovations are occurring, because despite what the stars on XQ Super Schools TV program claimed, schools have changed significantly in the last 100 years. Too many of America\u2019s students, however, are in schools which are underfunded and under-resourced. Instead of providing a few schools with $10 million, we need to fully fund all America\u2019s public schools. For all our children.\nWe, as a society, need to commit to funding the lives of all our children. They and their families need health care, food, clothing, shelter, and jobs with a living wage.\nPublic schools need teachers who are well-trained and well paid, not college graduates with five weeks of training or subject area professionals who know nothing about child development or pedagogy.\nPublic schools should have well staffed and well maintained educational facilities including appropriately staffed and resourced libraries.\nPublic schools should offer students classes and opportunities in the arts and physical education.\nPublic schools should provide wraparound services \u2013 nurses, social workers, counselors \u2013 so students who need help can get it. (See The Schools Chicago Students Deserve)\nSchools are a reflection of society. As long as we live in a society based on inequity, we will have schools which struggle to succeed in their mission.\nOTHER REACTIONS TO XQ Super School Live.\nThe message couldn\u2019t have been more obvious: high school has been standing still for too long. However, that is demonstrably false. The American high school has been a battleground for intellectual and social issues for at least 65 years\u2026 let me begin to count the ways high schools have changed, and changed, and sometimes reverted to form\u2026\nSeven Times \u201cXQ Super School Live\u201d Denigrated America\u2019s Teachers (And One Time It Praised Them)\n\u2026One minute into the broadcast, the message was clear, network television does not support America\u2019s public high schools or its teachers.\n\u2026To hear XQ tell it, there are absolutely no innovative classrooms or teachers in any public high schools.\n\u2026each \u201cSuper School\u201d profiled in the show. All of these schools have one particular non-traditional school policy in common. They all have some element of a selective admissions process\u2026\nWhy a live, star-studded (Tom Hanks, Common, etc.) TV show on school reform is a problem\nThe thinking that if \u201conly we can find the right school design model then all kids will have a great education\u201d disregards the fundamental problems that do harm public education: devastating funding inequities that disadvantage the poorest of the country\u2019s schools; curriculum deficits; issues facing teachers, including training, retention, lack of diversity, low pay and lack of authority in their own classrooms; and issues facing students, including poverty, trauma, poor health, unstable family life and learning disabilities.\nI\u2019ll end with a quote from Steven Singer. The status quo for the last four decades has been test and punish. So, when the \u201cXQ Super School\u201d group says we need to rethink high school, Singer agrees!\nXQ Live \u2013 Desperate School Choice Rebrand After Trump Touched It\nRethink high school?\nSure! Let\u2019s do that! Let\u2019s rethink inequitably funding it. Let\u2019s rethink high stakes standardized testing. Let\u2019s rethink Common Core, stealing local control, teacher autonomy and a host of the kinds of top down bull crap XQ tried obscure while selling an issue of Tiger Beat.\n\ud83d\udcb0\ud83c\udfeb\ud83d\udcb0\nComments Off on XQ: Debunked Assertions and False Assumptions\nFiled under Corp Interest, PDK, poverty, Public Ed, reform\nLead Poisoning for Profit, Bigotry in America, Reading Aloud,\nGovernment by Those Who Hate Government\nPOISONING CHILDREN FOR PROFIT\nFlint Is Slowly Getting Better, Say Scientists Who Exposed Water Crisis\nAccording to the Centers for Disease Control, \u201cNo safe blood lead level in children has been identified.\u201d\nThere are still millions of children in the U.S. who are exposed to lead every day. Flint, Michigan is the best known example of lead poisoning on a massive scale. After 3 years the water situation is starting to get better for Flint\u2026but lead poisoning is non-reversible. How many lives have been damaged permanently?\nThe situation in Flint is still difficult. Today, residents still use lead filters and bottled water for safety, and they still pay bills for water that they can\u2019t use and for health problems that were the result of the crisis. But the $87 million settlement reached between residents and the city of Flint mandating pipe replacement has already begun to bring new water infrastructure into some parts of the city. All of Flint\u2019s 18,000 damaged pipes are set to be replaced by 2020, and that replacement has already started.\n\u201c2020 sounds like a long time, but there\u2019s only two other cities in America that have entirely replaced their lead pipes: Lansing, Michigan, and Madison, Wisconsin. \u201cThey both did it over a decade,\u201d Hanna-Attisha says. \u201cSo mandating it over three years is actually unprecedented.\u201d\nBoxed Water for Flint (click the image for link).\nBetsy DeVos and Denying Flint\u2019s Children Special Education\nNow that the lead poisoned children of Flint need it the most, the state is balking at providing extra funds for special education services.

Great Advice to Parents from Author Russ Walsh on Reading to Your Children Throughout the School Year\nRead aloud to your children from birth.\nThe beginning of a school year is a good time to take an inventory of at-home practices that parents can institute to support their children\u2019s learning. One of the most important things that all parents should do is read aloud to their children regularly. Some teachers ask parents to make read aloud a regular part of the homework routine, but whether required by the teacher or not, the research has made it clear that read aloud is a critical home-based activity.\nJim Trelease agrees with Russ Walsh.\nWe start by looking at the recommendation of the 1983 Commission on Reading, funded by the U. S. Department of Education, which was alarmed by school scores. Since nearly everything in the curriculum rested upon reading, the consensus was that reading was at the heart of either the problem or the solution.\nThe commission spent two years poring through thousands of research projects conducted in the previous quarter century, and in 1985 issued its report, Becoming a Nation of Readers. Among its primary findings, two simple declarations rang loud and clear:\n\u201c[reading aloud] is a practice that should continue throughout the grades.\u201d\nGOVERNMENT BY THOSE WHO HATE THE GOVERNMENT\nThere is a reason we have a government. There is a reason we pay taxes to support government services.\n\u2026you can\u2019t support the things the government does \u2013 like caring for the elderly, establishing justice, providing public education, fighting terrorism, and protecting the environment \u2013 and still maintain that the taxes that support those things are bad.\nThe first responders who invariably become the heroes of any natural or human-caused disaster, are paid by taxes. Relief efforts to provide shelter, food, and medical care to displaced citizens are paid for by taxes. Support for rebuilding destroyed cities is paid for by taxes.\nSchools, roads, bridges, dams and reservoirs, water systems, and waste disposal facilities, and their upkeep, are paid for by taxes.\nMilitary defense is paid for by taxes.\nFor the last four decades, Republicans have tried to defund the government claiming that taxes are evil. As tax revenues decrease, government services decrease. As government services decrease, individuals have to take up the slack. Those who can afford to pay for services get them. Those who don\u2019t are out of luck.\nAs a portion of the nation\u2019s GDP, taxes in the U.S. are among the lowest in the developed world.\nTrump Praises Agencies He Wants to Cut\nAs has become typical of the current kakistocracy, Donald Trump toured areas near the worst-hit region of Texas by Hurricane Harvey and praised the very agencies his proposed budget has tried to cut funds for, including FEMA, HUD and the National Weather Service.\nIn case you need the definition of \u201ckakistocracy\u201d from the previous article.\nA kakistocracy (English pronunciation: /k\u00e6k\u026as\u02c8t\u0251k\u0279\u0259si/) is a system of government which is run by the worst, least qualified, or most unscrupulous citizens. The word was coined as early as the 17th century. It was also used by English author Thomas Love Peacock in 1829, but gained significant usage in the 21st century.\nThe word comes from the Greek words kakistos (\u03ba\u03ac\u03ba\u03b9\u03c3\u03c4\u03bf\u03c2; worst) and kratos (\u03ba\u03c1\u03ac\u03c4\u03bf\u03c2; rule), with a literal meaning of government by the worst people.[4] Despite its Greek roots, the word was first used in English, but has been adapted into other languages. Its Greek equivalent is kakistokratia (\u03ba\u03b1\u03ba\u03b9\u03c3\u03c4\u03bf\u03ba\u03c1\u03b1\u03c4\u03af\u03b1), Spanish kakistocracia, French kakistocracie, and Russian kakistokratiya (\u043a\u0430\u043a\u0438\u0441\u0442\u043e\u043a\u0440\u0430\u0442\u0438\u044f).\nFiled under Article Medleys, DeVos, Jim Trelease, Lead, Politics, Racism, read-alouds, Walsh",

Scott Auditorium in Philipsburg, Saint Maarten. It was the first time Lamonakis fought a 10-round bout. She went the full 10 rounds with Ewell, and the judges scored it 98-95, 96-94, 96-97 in her favor. \u201cIt was a long journey but at the end I came out on top of the world,\u201d Lamonakis said. \u201cIt was worth all my blood sweat and tears. I was happy to bring the title back to New York City and western Massachusetts, to my family, friends, and students.\u201d\nBefore winning the world champion title, Lamonakis, who is also a public school teacher in New York City, was already ranked the #1 Women\u2019s Professional Heavyweight Boxer in the United States. Nicknamed \u201cThe Scholar,\u201d Lamonakis is also the New York State 2014 Heavyweight Champion.\nIn September, Lamonakis was inducted into the Stoneleigh-Burnham School Athletic Hall of Fame.\nLamonakis was a standout athlete at SBS in 1992-1993 as a post-graduate student. Her specialty sport was softball. She went on to play college softball at Mitchell College in New London, Conn., and then Springfield College in Springfield, Mass., where she helped her team get to the USA National College Championship Tournament.\nAfter college, Lamonakis worked out at a gym in Springfield, Mass., and was discovered in 2003 as a boxing talent. After three months of training, she had her first fight. By 2005, she was invited to train at Gleason\u2019s Gym in Brooklyn, N.Y. She moved to New York City and began her professional career. She is the first woman to be signed by boxing promoter and producer Lou Dibella.\nIn addition to being a professional boxer, she is also a New York City school teacher. She teaches seventh and eighth grade at Middle School 126 in Brooklyn, N.Y.\nLamonakis holds a bachelor\u2019s degree in speech therapy from Springfield College, and two master\u2019s degrees, one in education from American International College in Springfield, Mass., and another in special education from Stony Brook University in Stony Brook, N.Y.",

        "raw_content": "Characterizing Long-Term Groundwater Conditions And Lithology For The Design Of Large-Scale Borehole Heat Exchangers\nby David C Smith, A.C. Elmore & Jordan Thompson\nThe Earth\u2019s subsurface remains at a relatively stable temperature at a given depth despite daily and seasonal changes in the weather at the surface. Rock and soil also have the ability to store heat energy for long periods of time.\nGround-coupled heat pump (GCHP) systems can store or extract heat energy from the subsurface using heated or cooled water that is pumped through a series of boreholes, which is referred to as a borehole heat exchanger (BHE) or ground-coupled heat exchanger. Energy from buildings can be stored in the subsurface in the summertime for cooling. The energy can also be transferred from the subsurface to the building in the winter for heating. Heat pumps are efficient as they simply transfer energy from one place to another. In the case of GCHP systems, heat is transferred between the ground and buildings via a circulating fluid for heating and cooling.\nLarge-scale GCHP systems are becoming more and more common as institutions such as colleges, government agencies, and corporations find ways to reduce their carbon footprint and heat and cool workspaces more efficiently. Recent systems at the Missouri University of Science and Technology, Ball State University, Robert Stockton College, and the Colorado and Michigan State Capitols have recently completed these large-scale GCHP systems. The Missouri University of Science and Technology system replaced an aging coal-fired power plant and has since reported a 57 percent decrease in energy consumption, a reduction of carbon dioxide emissions by 25,000 tons, and a decrease in water consumption by 18.7 million gallons per year.\nInstalling the thermocouples for the study (Credit: Dr. Yovanna Cortes Di Lena)\nDespite the surge in construction of these large systems, very little attention is given to the groundwater conditions before construction. The design of the system hinges on a single thermal response test (TRT) which is generally conducted over a 48-hour period. The TRT determines the overall thermal properties of the rock and soil in the subsurface. This dictates the size of a BHE such as depth and number of boreholes.\nIn two recent papers, \u201cThe effect of seasonal groundwater saturation on the effectiveness of large scale borehole heat exchangers in a karstic aquifer,\u201d and \u201cThe observed effects of changes in groundwater flow on a borehole heat exchanger of a large scale ground coupled heat pump system,\u201d both recently published in Geothermics, David Smith, A.C. Elmore, and Jordan Thompson show that changes the aquifer over long periods of time such as saturation and groundwater flow can greatly affect the performance of these large-scale GCHP systems.\nThe study focused on the performance of a large 144 well BHE located at the Missouri University of Science and Technology over a period of several years. The BHE was constructed in a very productive karstic dolomite and sandstone aquifer that generally would experience changes in water levels between 30-40 feet and also modest changes in flow due to the operation of large municipal wells around the site.\nThe research showed that during dry periods when water levels in the aquifer decreased and saturation decreased, the effectiveness of the BHE would also decrease by as much as 50 percent. The BHE tended to have the highest efficiency in the late spring when water levels were highest due to recent rains. Groundwater flow was also shown to affect the performance of the BHE, however, changes in flow were small and the effects on the BHE were also smaller compared to the effects of changes in groundwater levels.\nThe papers present strong evidence that the industry standard single thermal response test alone may not be enough for the proper design of these large expensive systems. A single thermal response test could lead to oversizing or under sizing of a system depending on when it is conducted. Proper characterization of subsurface such as lithology, long-term groundwater levels, and groundwater flow coupled with multiple thermal response tests will give designers of these systems a range of subsurface conditions for which the system can be designed for.\nThese findings are described in the articles entitled, The effect of seasonal groundwater saturation on the effectiveness of large scale borehole heat exchangers in a karstic aquifer, and The observed effects of changes in groundwater flow on a borehole heat exchanger of a large scale ground coupled heat pump system, both recently published in journal Geothermics. This work was conducted by David Smith, A.C. Elmore, and Jordan Thompson from the Missouri University of Science and Technology.\nSmith, D.C., Elmore, A.C. and Thompson, J., 2018.

The report begins by noting that Arab countries have made significant strides in more than one area of human development, although it also mentions that three significant deficits (freedom, empowerment of women, and knowledge) constitute \"weighty constraints on human capability that must be lifted.\" While the full report is quite lengthy, it is divided into more digestible sections dealing with the overall state of human development in the region, the potential for building human capability, and cooperation among Arab states. The report also contains several appendices that offer detailed statistical information gathered by the researchers and a list of background papers. For those looking for a quick overview of their findings, the report also has an 11-page summary. [KMG]\nhttp://eagle.brooklynpubliclibrary.org/\nSometimes referred to as \"the borough of homes and churches,\" Brooklyn has long been an urban community that has captured the attention of the United States and the rest of the world. For over a century, the Brooklyn Daily Eagle chronicled the community's history while under the reins of a host of well-regarded editors, including Walt Whitman. This Web site, which is a collaboration between the Brooklyn Public Library and the Institute of Museum and Library Services, brings over seventy years of this paper online for viewing by the Web-browsing public. The Web site includes an introduction to the paper's history over its long tenure as Brooklyn's main daily paper, as well as a timeline of important changes to the paper's format, layout, and content organization. What is perhaps most remarkable about this online archive is that the entire run from 1841 to 1902 can be searched by keyword, date, and content type. It is important to note that this current archive is a beta release, and that, at certain times (until the main release in the summer of 2003), certain features may not be always available. Regardless of this fact, this is an excellent resource for urban historians and researchers. [KMG]\nFederal Township Plats of Illinois, 1804-1891 [Flash]\nhttp://landplats.ilsos.net/Flash/FTP_Illinois.html\nThe passage of the Land Ordinance of 1785 created the rectangular survey system for the mapping and subsequent sale of the western public lands of the United States. In 1803, the first survey of the lands, which would later become the state of Illinois, began. After moving northwards from southern Illinois in 1806, the federal surveyors finished surveying the last townships in 1843, but for four decades afterwards, the General Land Office continue to conduct occasional surveys of areas in the state such as islands and lakes. The Illinois State Archives, working together with the Illinois Secretary of State and the Department of Information Technology, have brought all of these township plats online for public consideration and research purposes. The 3,457 hand drawn maps available are valuable repositories of information about the six miles square townships, often including information about existing natural features and, in some cases, man-made features as well. Along with the plat maps themselves, the site also contains essays about the surveyor's work, the equipment they used, and potential surveying problems they often encountered. [KMG]\nhttp://www.fda.gov/oc/opacom/hottopics/anti_resist.html\nIn the past few years, there have been more reports of bacteria that are increasingly resilient to antibiotics. Understandably, this antibiotic resistance is of great concern to the medical community in terms of public health, and is due largely to the increased use of antibiotics. With this in mind, the United States Food and Drug Administration has developed this Web site to inform the general public about this phenomenon, as well as to provide a number of documents generated by different government agencies about this problem and strategies for combating it. For those unacquainted with the situation, there are several helpful general fact sheets and overviews provided online from the Center for Disease Control and the University of Wisconsin. Additionally, the site contains several papers outlining some general recommendations about how the problem can be contained with the cooperation of doctors, hospitals, and increased awareness of the populace. [KMG]\nhttp://www.knaw.nl/ecpa/grip/\nDeveloped as a partnership between the National Archives of the Netherlands and the European Commission on Preservation and Access, the Gateway for Resources and Information on Preservation is a searchable database of information on the preservation of documentary materials. This database brings together an excellent array of helpful resources in the field, which can be searched by keyword, keyword combinations, and thematic headings. Some headings include preservation, deterioration, treatment, digital preservation, materials, and treatment. The Gateway also serves as the host for several related Web sites, including the Safeguarding European Photographic Images for Access site and the To Have and to Hold Web site, which contains a number of resources related to the preservation of photographic collections. The site also contains two publications available for download, including an annotated bibliography of works related to preserving and maintaining archives in tropical climates that was prepared for an international conference in Jakarta. [KMG]\nhttp://www.archimuse.com/mw2003/speakers/index.html\nSince the advent of the World Wide Web, many professionals and library science specialists have devoted a great deal of thought and time to how museums might best create provocative and well designed Web sites in order to best highlight their various holdings and unique collections. The Archives and Museum Informatics group has recently released a number of papers from the recent Museums and the Web 2003 conference held in North Carolina and placed them on their Web site for public consideration. Participants in the conference included representatives from a number of countries, including Germany, the United States, Norway, Canada, the United Kingdom, and Italy. The site contains over 100 papers, with topics ranging from \"Documenting Stories: World War II and Civil Rights Histories\" to \"Online Museum Discussion Forums: What do we have? What do we need?\" All in all, this is a valuable resource, and representative of some of the most inventive work being done in the field of museum Web development.

The first Web site listed above contains a University of Alberta press release detailing this first-ever demonstration of genetic adaptation to global warming. The second Web site, from the Proceedings of the Royal Society, provides the abstract for this recently published research (full-text available only with paid subscription). With implications that extend far beyond the immediate research concerns of geneticists and environmental scientists, Boutin's work as presented in these Web sites should be interesting to wide audience. This site is also reviewed in the March 21, 2003 NSDL Life Sciences Report.\nhttp://wrgis.wr.usgs.gov/docs/gump/zulanger/lasvegas/lasvegas.html\nThe Geophysical Studies of the Las Vegas Urban Corridor Area are part of an integrated effort to \"geologically characterize the seismic hazards, water resources, and crustal structure of this rapidly growing urban corridor\" by the USGS. The informational Web site contains a gravity map of the Las Vegas region, an aeromagnetic map, and a publications link with a list of over a dozen references. Seven of these publications are freely available for download with titles such as \"Aeromagnetic Survey of the Amargosa Desert,\" \"Nevada and California: A Tool for Understanding Near-Surface Geology,\" and Hydrology and Principal Facts for Gravity Stations in the Vicinity of Coyote Spring Valley, Nevada, with Initial Gravity Modeling Results.\" An interesting collection of unique resources, the site should be of interest to professionals in a wide variety of fields. This site is also reviewed in the March 21, 2003 NSDL Physical Science Report.\n[JAB]\nManet/ Velazquez: The French Taste for Spanish Painting [Flash]\nhttp://manetvelazquez.accenture.com\nThe opening sequence of this exhibition Web site depicts the bidding process for an acclaimed Spanish painting, Murillio's \"Immaculate Conception,\" which was purchased by the Musee de Louvre in 1852. Sponsored by the Metropolitan Museum of Art and Accenture, this beautiful site explores the great love of Spanish painting by the French throughout the latter half of the nineteenth century. Visitors will want to start by viewing the Artists' Journey through Spain section, which allows them to look at an interactive map of the travels within Spain that led artists such as Mary Cassatt, Edouard Manet, and others to produce such lasting and powerful works of art. The Comparative Gallery section is a fine feature that allows visitors to drag two different paintings from five different online galleries and read text that compares these nineteenth century French and American works with the Spanish paintings that inspired them. The Artists and Paintings section offers a brief overview in the exhibit, as well as a timeline that features crucial political, social, and cultural events from 1780 to 1890 that affected the artistic milieu of Spain and France. Perhaps the finest feature of the site is the ability to view the legendary Prado Museum in Madrid as Manet would have viewed it in the 1870s. Utilizing the photographs of the museum's grand Sala Central taken by Jean Laurent between 1879 and 1885, visitors can navigate around the interior, and zoom in and out as they prefer. [KMG]\nhttp://www.nmnh.si.edu/naa/taylor/#\nThe National Museum of Natural History, in collaboration with the National Anthropological Archives, has recently placed the James E. Taylor Album online for ready access. James E. Taylor was a professional artist who worked throughout the last four decades of the nineteenth century, supplying numerous national newspapers with illustrations and drawings based on on-site descriptions and first-hand observations. Over his long career, Taylor collected photographs and newspaper clippings, which he compiled into scrapbooks, along with various letters and other printed ephemera. Taylor's eye for thematic organization is demonstrated by some of the highlighted scrapbook pages available for inspection on the Web site, including those dealing with gold mining, frontier life, and the Meeker tragedy. Visitors to the site can look at any of the 748 images contained here in detail, or browse through the different album pages. The site is rounded out by an extended biographical essay about Taylor and his work, which illuminates his role in creating the popular (and largely mythical) image of the West and its inhabitants. [KMG]\nhttp://www.prokofiev.org/\nMaintained by Sugi Sorensen, this Web site is dedicated to the life and work of Sergi Prokofiev, one of the most accomplished composers and pianists of the 20th century. New visitors to the site will want to take a look at the detailed biography of Prokofiev provided here, along with a timeline that highlights some key moments in his life. The site also features a complete list of his works by genre, along with pertinent details (such as instrumentation, length of work, and so on) and recordings recommended by Sorensen and other contributors. The site also has a concert list that notes when upcoming performances of works by Prokofiev will be taking place, as well as sketches of \"Prokofievians\" such as Jascha Heifetz, Neeme Jarvi, and Andre Previn. Perhaps one of the best features on the site is the interviews, which include conversations with Sviatoslav Prokofiev (his oldest son) and Harlow Robinson, a professor who has written several biographical works about Prokofiev. [KMG]\nhttp://www.drawn-evidence.dundee.ac.uk/dundee_dr/index.jsp\nDrawing on the excellent resources of numerous partners, including the Edinburgh University Library, the University of Dundee, the Glasgow University Archives, and the support of the Research Libraries Support Programme, this Web site is a virtual archive of over 20,000 items related to Scottish architecture and town planning over the past four centuries. Visitors to the site can search by simple keywords, a detailed index, or category. While most images are contained in the Architecture and Planning and Locations subjects, a much more refined search is available, as each of these subjects contain a number of subheadings. For example, within the subheading Architectural Features, visitors can examine plans and renderings organized into architectural elements, such as buttresses, gables, and arcades. Additionally, there are several thematic collections for browsing that are organized around prominent architects, such as William Playfair, or architectural period. Anyone with the remotest interest in the built environment of Scotland will find this site quite engaging and edifying. [KMG]\nhttp://www.ancientscripts.com\nDesigned by Lawrence K. Lo, this Web site is meant to serve as \"an introduction to writing systems, which hopefully will tantalize the reader into searching for more information.\" Lo offers visitors a brief overview of several topics related to linguistics (both modern and historical) in sections devoted to writing systems, sounds and phonetics, and historical linguistics. In the writing systems, Lo offers a brief overview of writing systems over the millennia and then concludes with several categories of languages around types, families, geographical regions, and an alphabetical listing. From these categories, users can obtain information about any number of languages, including Aztec, Sumerian, Cherokee, Old Persian, and literally dozens of others. The section of phonetics contains a summary of how different tones can be utilized to create a host of varied sounds and meanings. The site concludes with a brief discussion of why languages evolve over time and a bibliography of helpful linguistic resources used to create the site.

Throughout many cities and towns, protesters sought a variety of ways to voice their displeasure with the recent military action and, more generally, with certain aspects of United States overseas policies, particularly in the Middle East. In Chicago, a city not recently known for its activism, a crowd of close to 10,000 coalesced on Michigan Avenue and proceeded to block Lake Shore Drive, effectively bringing rush-hour traffic to a standstill. In San Francisco, protesters had a novel approach, often moving in small groups throughout the city to various key intersections, as opposed to moving along in a massive and more predictable mass of people. While many students were away enjoying spring break, students and other members of the MIT community initiated a rally with over 600 participants, many carrying signs declaring, \"Nobody likes a bully\"! and \"MIT Nerds for Peace.\"\nThe first link leads to a detailed news article about the protests in Chicago from the Chicago Sun-Times. The second link will take visitors to a news article about the unusual and novel tactics used by protesters in San Francisco from the online edition of the San Francisco Chronicle. The third link leads to a news article from today's Washington Post about the protests in the nation's capitol. The fourth link leads to a recent news article from the Oregonian about the more dramatic protests that took place in Portland on Thursday. The fifth link leads to a press release from the MIT news office about the on-campus rally, including quotes from those present and a short video clip of the gathering.

        "title": "How to Build a Dynasty Fantasy Football Team | ScoutFantasySports",
        "raw_content": "How to Build a Dynasty Fantasy Football Team\nThese are the tips you need to know in order to take your Dynasty Fantasy Football roster from infancy to full-blown champion.\nA lot goes into building a successful dynasty franchise. It takes much more work than being successful in a redraft league. You have to do a lot more research and spend considerably more time on it. A dynasty league is a 12-month commitment. You research, plan, trade and even draft throughout the entire year. From identifying young talent to trading your stars before they lose value, managing a dynasty team is only for dedicated owners.\nBalancing Young vs. Old\nThe most difficult thing about dynasty leagues may be figuring out how to find a balance between the young upside players and proven veterans. You have to make the tough decisions such as when the time is right to go with the 23-year-old running back who is about to get a heavy workload over the 29-year-old back who has been playing at a high level for the past seven years. You need the vets to win now, but you need youth to sustain success. The best example of this in the NFL is the Indianapolis Colts\u2019 decision to part part ways with Peyton Manning, clearing the path to draft Andrew Luck. Indy made the wise choice and went with the young QB who will lead them for the next 15 years instead of sticking by their aging future Hall of Famer, even though he still had a 50-touchdown season in him and went to the Super Bowl with his new team the following year. Those decisions are what dynasty league football is all about. Just make sure you don\u2019t abandon a star too early.\nIt\u2019s a bit more difficult to decide exactly when to move on from an aging player. These following numbers are not written in stone, but here the approximate ages for when a player at each position may turn into someone who is \u201cover the hill:\u201d\nQuarterbacks: 34; running backs: 29; wide receivers and tight ends: 31. Of course, moving on can be easier said than done, especially if you grow attached to player after he\u2019s helped you win for years and years. Learn to take emotion out of the equation when constructing your roster.\nBefore you trade, you need to determine your team\u2019s needs and what your franchise is trying to accomplish. If you\u2019re in first place at midseason, but your team just lost a running back due to injury, trading away some of your future for a 28-year-old stud RB who can help you in the present is sensible. You should never pass up an opportunity to win a title. Conversely, if you\u2019re clearly out of the playoff picture, you should be looking to move those aging stars while they are at their peak value to acquire some young, high-upside players.\nIn the offseason, when all is equal, that\u2019s when things get interesting. The youngest players inherently carry a lot of value. However, the 24-to-27-year-old proven commodities will always hold the most value. They are in that sweet spot area as reliable Fantasy players with age still on their side. A promising rookie will very rarely have more value than a player who has been to three straight Pro Bowls prior to the age of 27. You want to exploit the owners who lean too heavily in either direction. Some people fall in love with upside, and you can take advantage of that by snagging their great veterans in return for players who have nothing more than potential. Some owners get starstruck and are constantly in win-now mode. You can force them to overpay for the big names and obtain an abundance of young talent. Always do everything in your power to sell high and buy low.\nDetermining Player Value\nThe best way to determine a young player\u2019s value is to actually watch them. Watch college football and read the scouting reports. If you want to take it to the next level, break down some game film. Of course, breaking down film and knowing what you\u2019re looking at is not as simple as it may sound. As a former scout, I can tell you there is a lot to look for. Still, you can watch a player and determine if you like him or not. Become familiar with the players surrounding him in his offense and his coaches\u2019 tendencies. You can also utilize the SCOUT Fantasy staff. We can all be reached on the SCOUT Fantasy forums and on social media outlets such as Twitter and Facebook.\nIDP vs. Skill-Position Value\nWhen a dynasty league requires IDPs, it\u2019s important to understand the value of defensive players relative to offensive players. You don\u2019t want to disregard defensive players. At the same time, you don\u2019t want to get carried away and draft the reigning Defensive Player of the Year in the second round. You never want to trade a starting running back for a linebacker or anything crazy like that. Just be sure to have a full understanding of your league\u2019s IDP scoring. There really is no universal format.\nI\u2019m a believer in filling out your starting lineup before adding depth. Fill out your offense first; just don\u2019t go too deep before getting to the defense. A lot of owners do not value defensive players, so you can get real steals on IDPs. I don\u2019t even hate trading my offensive depth for starters on defense. It\u2019s important to remember that players on your bench don\u2019t get you points, starters do. Like with everything else, use common sense. If you have four great RBs, don\u2019t trade one away for a defensive back; you still want to get equal value or something close to it whenever possible. But if you have a solid backup with a slew of stars in front of him, he may be worth moving.\nYou will need to have patience when building your dynasty team. Do not give up on a player if he\u2019s not a breakout star as a rookie. Many players take time to develop. Actually, the majority of players don\u2019t begin to peak until their third or fourth season. They may have to work their way up the depth chart as a youngster or perhaps their game may needs refining. You see this often with young players who have issues with blocking. They have a ton of talent yet struggle to get snaps early in their career because they are a neophyte in pass protection or run blocking, which causes them to come off the field in many situations.\nYou also must be patient with those talent-laden players who have no choice but to bide their time behind an entrenched star. Aaron Rodgers sat behind Brett Favre for three years before being given the starting job. Then you have a guy such as Drew Brees, who struggled so badly through his first three seasons that the San Diego Chargers used their first overall pick in 2004 to acquire Philip Rivers, who also sat for two seasons until Brees signed with the New Orleans Saints. There are plenty of examples like this, but the moral of the story is: Managing your dynasty roster takes patience. Be the owner who takes advantage of other impatient owners, not the one whose franchise is set back because you bailed on a superstar prematurely.",

Were You Born in a Barn?\n\u201cFor there is born to you this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.\u201d (Luke 2:11)\n\u201cWere you born in a barn?\u201d Usally told to us as children because we didnt shut the door. That question was usually asked to question not only someone\u2019s family, but their upbringing, their heritage. It\u2019s a question of guilt, a painful question. But the question really leads us to, literally, The Greatest Story ever told\u2013a story of the world\u2019s one and only perfect leader who entered the world amidst power hungry political leaders, a corrupt government system and a religious group of people. Not just a king, but the King of kings, who left His throne with singing angels, who left Heaven, light, love and glory to be born in a manger, a barn.\n\u201cOur Savior, our King of Kings, Our Jesus, was born in a barn.\u201d\nIf Jesus came to earth with nothing so that we could have everything, wouldn\u2019t it make sense to follow Him? If Jesus is truly God in the flesh, shouldn\u2019t we be willing to give our everything for Him? Jesus was not born in a manger so that we would have a reason to go to church a couple times a year. Jesus was born in a manger to show us that God is with us. This same Jesus would later die on the cross so that we could have eternal life. This same Jesus also calls us to deny ourselves and follow Him. He is not simply interested in changing our holiday routine; He desires to radically change our life. Are you ready?\n\u201cJesus came not to change your schedule or to change one day a year. He came to change your life.\u201d\nHeavenly Father, Thank You for the gift of Jesus Christ. He came in poverty so that I could relate to Him. He lived a perfect life because I am not able to, and He died on the cross so that I could be forgiven. Help me to remember all these things this Christmas. Fill me with Your Spirit so that I can share the good news of Your coming with everyone I meet! In Jesus\u2019 name, Amen.\nThis entry was posted in Ask Jesus into your heart, The Good News, Truth, Uncategorized and tagged Rob Lavallee, Scriptural Seeds Ministries, Shut the Door, Were you born in a barn, www.scripturalseeds.org on December 23, 2016 by Rob Lavallee.\n\u2190 December 22nd 2016 \u2013 Jesus is Our Peace December 24th 2016 \u2013 Glory to God in the Highest \u2192",

        "raw_content": "Make That 11 in a Row for #FSUWBB\nTALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) \u2014 Adut Bulgak had 19 points and 14 rebounds for her sixth double-double of the season, leading No. 10 Florida State to a 94-63 win over North Carolina on Sunday.\nThe Seminoles (21-4, 11-1 Atlantic Coast Conference) had six players score in double figures in their biggest victory against the Tar Heels. Their previous best was an 85-66 win at North Carolina during the 1992-93 season.\nThe Seminoles led 41-35 at halftime and then put the game away by outscoring the Tar Heels 27-11 in the third quarter. Bulgak, who has 18 career double-doubles, scored nine points in the quarter as the Seminoles extended their winning streak to 11.\nStephanie Watts led North Carolina (14-13, 4-8) with 19 points and nine rebounds. Destinee Walker added 18 points and Hillary Summers had 12.\nFlorida State scored the first 10 points of the game and led 25-12 at the end of the first quarter. The Seminoles began the second quarter 3 of 17 from the field as North Carolina came back to tie it at 33 on a Walker 3-pointer with 2:38 remaining.\n\u2022 For the first time this season Florida State totaled six student-athletes with double-figure points: Adut Bulgak (19), Emiah Bingley (15), Leticia Romero (15), Ivey Slaughter (12), Shakayla Thomas (11) and Kai James (10).\n\u2022 The Seminoles out-paced UNC in three key categories: Points in the paint (50-14), second-chance points (20-3) and bench points (29-3).\n\u2022 FSU\u2019s 94 points scored is the fourth time it has reached 90+ points this season and is tied for its third-most scored.\n\u2022 The 31-point win by the Seminoles was their largest margin of victory ever over the Tar Heels, eclipsing their 19-point win of 85-66 on Jan. 10, 1993.\n\u2022 FSU out-scored UNC in the second half 53-28, including a breakaway 27-11 third period. The Seminoles shot 57.9 percent (22-of-38) in the second half.\n\u2022 Senior center Adut Bulgak\u2019s 19 points and season-high tying 14 rebounds marked her 18th career double-double at FSU, sitting eighth on the school\u2019s list.\n\u2022 FSU\u2019s 11-game win streak is one shy of tying the program record of 12 straight victories from Nov. 19, 2004-Dec. 28, 2004. All 11 consecutive wins have come in ACC play, a program record.\n\u2022 The Seminoles defeated both Duke (69-53) and UNC (94-63) this week, marking the fourth season that FSU has defeated both Tobacco Road programs.\n\u2022 The win by FSU extends its home win streak to 31 consecutive games, soaring past the previous school record of 13 straight games from 2009-10 to 2010-11.\n\u2022 FSU\u2019s 51 rebounds mark the fifth time the Seminoles have amassed 50+ boards this season, and the sixth time FSU has recorded 20+ offensive rebounds (finished with 21 vs. the Tar Heels).\n\u2022 Over her last four games, senior guard Emiah Bingley is 12-of-19 from 3-point range after making four more from beyond the arc. She tied her season high of 15 points for the third time this season.\n\u2022 Junior center Kai James added 10 points to give her five double-figure games this year, which was her career total entering the season.\n\u2022 Sophomore Shakayla Thomas\u2019 11 points was her 23rd double-figure game in 24 games played this season.\n\u2022 FSU improves to 18-0 this season when holding opponents to under 40 percent, and 11-0 when holding opponents to under 35 percent. UNC shot 33.9 percent (20-of-59) vs. FSU.\n\u2022 Over FSU\u2019s 11-game win streak, it has led for 415 minutes, 18 seconds of 440 possible minutes.\n\u2022 FSU has not out-rebounded its opponents in 60 of its last 64 games played.\nFSU HEAD COACH SUE SEMRAU:\n\u201cGreat team effort. I mean a big win over a strong program. I thought they were extremely explosive but the difference was in the paint. We knew that would be the case. To put that in perspective, you look at our assists and you see 23 assists to 11 turnovers. We knew we were going to get high-quality shots, high percentage shots. And I felt our post, Adut and Kai and Ivey, they were just relentless and that\u2019s the difference.\u201d\nOn whether this was the team\u2019s best offensive performance:\n\u201cNo, and again it\u2019s not that it wasn\u2019t strong in those categories but I still feel like we had some hesitation and you know there\u2019s been a couple of games where I felt like maybe we\u2019re flowing a little bit more but obviously production shows that we\u2019re getting there.\u201d\nOn if she was happy with the team\u2019s defensive effort:\n\u201cYes and no. I thought the first quarter we were strong and then we let them have a big second quarter. We wanted to make sure that after we had a big third quarter they didn\u2019t come back and have a big fourth quarter. I thought we came back and did a good job.\u201d\nOn the keys to Sunday\u2019s win:\n\u201cI felt like we were getting everything that we wanted and that\u2019s why we pride ourselves on our defense and rebounding, because you just don\u2019t know when those shots are going to fall or not. So certainly, that was our emphasis and what we were able to do on the defensive end and I wasn\u2019t pleased with what we did defensively in the second quarter and I never want our lack of offense to translate to the defensive end.\u201d\nOn the team\u2019s offensive progression:\n\u201cWe love it when our defense dictates our offense. I felt like we got a lot of opportunity to run, we make great decisions. We just continue to try to get better. After the Duke game I felt like we were a little complacent and we really challenged them. I felt like they really stepped up the next day and obviously this afternoon but we\u2019re not finished yet.\u201d\nOn how much this team has to improve with an 11-game win streak:\n\u201cWe have so much to improve. I told them they can enjoy this one tonight, but when they wake up in the morning they need to be thinking about the next one. This is a great team to do that, they are very mature and they know it is one game at a time. They know how tough Syracuse will be on the road on Thursday night.\u201d\nOn getting caught up in the stats:\n\u201cI don\u2019t look at the stats honestly. When I do look at the stats and I see us at the top of the conference it\u2019s surprising. We are leading the league in scoring. I don\u2019t think we feel like we are where we want to be yet. That\u2019s what I love about this team, they believe that and they want to get better.\u201d\nOn where FSU has evolved the most:\n\u201c[We have evolved most this season] in our chemistry. We have worked really hard to weed out anything that could get in the way of us being the best we can. With women, we are a work in progress all the time. We have feelings, we are sensitive, not that guys don\u2019t. But they are much more level and we have learned how to be. I like who I see when I look at my team. That\u2019s been the hardest work I think, but the biggest growth.\u201d\nSunday Parking Announcement for Men\u2019s and Women\u2019s Basketball\nNo. 10 #FSUWBB Hosts UNC in \u2018Sweet\u2019 Sunday Matchup",

        "raw_content": "Joy Angevin Balmer, an evidence-based healer, was interviewed recently on The Optimal Health Radio show (available on the iHeartRadio network, Stitcher, YouTube, iTunes and Spreaker) or online at: https://businessinnovatorsradio.com/the-optimal-health-show/ about utilizing The Trivedi Effect\u00ae which has the potential to provide beneficial effects that are anti-inflammatory, anti-aging and anti-stress.\nBalmer is an evidence-based energy healer validated by scientific research. A former educator for more than 30 years, created a very successful Home School Assistance Program and worked with students of all ages and in all areas of instruction. She has a deep belief in the power of education coupled with an understanding that only through connection to the Divine can people reach their highest potential. Balmer sought ways to integrate traditional education with holistic healing and the spiritual journey.\nThen in 2010 when Balmer met Guruji Mahendra Trivedi, founder of Trivedi Global, Inc. and the Trivedi Effect\u00ae, she experienced profound personal transformation on all levels. She was inspired to join the Trivedi Healers Mastery program where under the guidance of Guruji Trivedi her natural healing gifts blossomed. Inspired, she retired from her Home-Schooling Program in 2014 to become a spiritual holistic medicine-based healer. Energy medicine treatments utilizing The Trivedi Effect\u00ae have the potential to provide beneficial effects that are anti-inflammatory, anti-aging and anti-stress.\nThe impact of Balmer\u2019s Biofield energy healing abilities on overall health, improved quality of life, and increased Vitamin D3 absorption have been validated by the rigor of internationally accepted models of scientific research and published in multiple peer-reviewed scientific journals.\nTo learn more about Balmer, visit her website online at: http://www.joyblessings.com.",

        "raw_content": "Tag Archives: inverted pyramid\nArchitecture, Business of IT, Risk, Storage, Virtualization\nThe Inverted Pyramid of Doom\nThe 3-2-1 model of system architecture is extremely common today and almost always exactly the opposite of what a business needs or even wants if they were to take the time to write down their business goals rather than approaching an architecture from a technology first perspective. Designing a solution requires starting with business requirements, otherwise we not only risk the architecture being inappropriately designed for the business but rather expect it.\nThe name refers to three (this is a soft point, it is often two or more) redundant virtualization host servers connected to two (or potentially more) redundant switches connected to a single storage device, normally a SAN (but DAS or NAS are valid here as well.) It\u2019s an inverted pyramid because the part that matters, the virtualization hosts, depend completely on the network which, in turn, depends completely on the single SAN or alternative storage device. So everything rests on a single point of failure device and all of the protection and redundancy is built more and more on top of that fragile foundation. Unlike a proper pyramid with a wide, stable base and a point on top, this is built with all of the weakness at the bottom. (Often the \u2018unicorn farts\u2019 marketing model of \u201cSANs are magic and can\u2019t fail because of dual controllers\u201d comes out here as people try to explain how this isn\u2019t a single point of failure, but it is a single point of failure in every sense.)\nSo the solution, often called a 3-2-1 design, can also be called the \u201cInverted Pyramid of Doom\u201d because it is an upside down pyramid that is too fragile to run and extremely expensive for what is delivered. So unlike many other fragile models, it is very costly, not very flexible and not as reliable as simply not doing anything beyond having a single quality server.\nThere are times that a 3-2-1 makes sense, but mostly these are extreme edge cases where a fragile environment is desired and high levels of shared storage with massive processing capabilities are needed \u2013 not things you would see in the SMB world and very rarely elsewhere.\nThe inverted pyramid looks great to people who are not aware of the entire architecture, such as managers and business people. There are a lot of boxes, a lot of wires, there are software components typically which are labeled \u201cHA\u201d which, to the outside observer, makes it sounds like the entire solution must be highly reliable. Inverted Pyramids are popular because they offer \u201cHA\u201d from a marketing perspective making everything sound wonderful and they keep the overall cost within reason so it seems almost like a miracle \u2013 High Availability promises without the traditional costs. The additional \u201credundancy\u201d of some of the components is great for marketing. As reliability is difficult to measure, business people and technical people alike often resort to speaking of redundancy instead of reliability as it is easy to see redundancy. The inverted pyramid speaks well to these people as it provides redundancy without reliability. The redundancy is not where it matters most. It is absolutely critical to remember that redundancy is not a check box nor is redundancy a goal, it is a tool to use to obtain reliability improvements. Improper redundancy has no value. What good is a car with a redundant steering wheel in the trunk? What good is a redundant aircraft if you die when the first one crashes? What good is a redundant sever if your business is down and data lost when the single SAN went up in smoke?\nThe inverted pyramid is one of the most obvious and ubiquitous examples of \u201cThe Emperor\u2019s New Clothes\u201d used in technology sales. Because it meets the needs of the resellers and vendors by promoting high margin sales and minimizing low margin ones and because nearly every vendor promotes it because of its financial advantages to the seller it has become widely accepted as a great solution because it is just complicated and technical enough that widespread repudiation does not occur and the incredible market pressure from the vast array of vendors benefiting from the architecture it has become the status quo and few people stop and question if the entire architecture has any merit. That, combined with the fact that all systems today are highly reliable compared to systems of just a decade ago causing failures to be uncommon enough that the fact that they are more common that they should be and statistical failure rates are not shared between SMBs, means that the architecture thrives and has become the de facto solution set for most SMBs.\nThe bottom line is that the Inverted Pyramid approach makes no sense \u2013 it is far more unreliable than simpler solutions, even just a single server standing on its own, while costing many times more. If cost is a key driver, it should be ruled out completely. If reliability is a key driver, it should be ruled out completely. Only if cost and reliability take very far back seats to flexibility should it even be put on the table and even then it is rare that a lower cost, more reliable solution doesn\u2019t match it in overall flexibility within the anticipated scope of flexibility. It is best avoided altogether.\nOriginally published on Spiceworks in abridged form: http://community.spiceworks.com/topic/312493-the-inverted-pyramid-of-doom\ndesigninverted pyramid",

(2006)\nJocelyn Elise Crowley, Brian H. Roff, Jeneve Lynch\nHealth Education & Behavior 34(1): 55-70.\nAbstractUnderstanding the behaviors and attitudes of at-risk populations is fundamental to controlling the spread of HIV, the virus which causes AIDS. The problem of nonresponse among these populations, however, plagues survey research designed to address these issues. Previous work undertaken to map out the dynamics of nonresponse--both non-contacts and refusals--have primarily focused on exploring the effectiveness of a single method of outreach. This analysis improves upon this prior research by comparing the effectiveness of two types of outreach strategies in a follow-up face-to-face survey of individuals seeking HIV prevention services in New Jersey during the period 1999-2001. Caseworkers from community-based organizations (CBOs) attempted to contact one set of respondents, while \u201coutsider\u201d researchers attempted to contact the second set. In brief, we find that in contrast to a CBO research affiliation, an outsider researcher status is associated with higher survey response rates.\nPersistent URLhttps://doi.org/doi:10.7282/T3377BJD\nSubjectsMedical care surveys\u2014Response rate, AIDS (Disease), Community organization, Community-based organizations, Survey nonresponse",

        "raw_content": "A Spoonful of Sugar or My Four Dollar Story\nFebruary 13, 2014 Serge PlastikoffDepression, Soviet Times, Sugar, Suicide 2 Comments\nWe all need some sugar in our lives, but sometimes we have no money to buy at least a few spoons of it. This entry is about times when we find ourselves in a dark place.\nI have no fucking idea how to write about this topic and my temperamental \u201ct\u201d is still stuck on my keyboard as if saying: \u201cI got your \u201ct\u201d so where is your sugar?\u201d Ha ha, it would be funny if it would be funny, but\u2026\nI am here to tell you a story. I was debating if I should write about my dark times, but Plastikoff would not be Plastikoff if he would not use the drama in his life for a good cause.\nYes, my darlings, yours truly Plastikoff was quite in a ditch last week. The feeling of uncertainty lasted way too long. I got fed up with all this bitterness. I needed some sugar in my life.\nI am not really sure what was the main reason why I was feeling the way I was feeling. It could be that my extensive drinking had something to do with it, or it could be that I made some stupid mistakes while being under the influence and was not thinking about the consequences I would face the next day (who wants to think about consequences when they are having fun anyway, who?). But it happened so that I found myself not only financially but also emotionally broke.\nThis is not an entry for people who are looking for somebody to tell them how to behave or what to do when depression strikes, no, and believe me, I am the last one who calls depression \u201cdepression,\u201d but it happened so that the darling one hit me in my balls, or at least I thought that these were my balls (smiley face). Suddenly everything went dark, or maybe that was the bulb of my table lamp that got busted, I don\u2019t know, I can\u2019t tell it now. It\u2019s eight o\u2019clock in the morning when I write these words. I am drinking coffee. Ha, that\u2019s right, yours truly is not drinking Port at this hour, but is enjoying the bitter taste of black beverage which makes my fingers type as fast as I can and my ass run to the bathroom every five minutes. And where is all this water coming from? But back to the topic.\nDarlings, to speak about depression is quite depressing (I can\u2019t find a better word for it) so I am just going to tell you what made my dim table lamp turn into a bright winter\u2019s sun in a flick.\nThat\u2019s right, my darlings, I might have accepted for myself that being involved with anything arts is a waste of time and that I might never get anywhere close to be rich to afford to buy a house with a garden, I might. Well, that\u2019s what some people might want me to think and I think that got me last week. Yes, I might be a walking clich\u00e9, a starvin\u2019 Marvin O\u2019Farts, but there is always a reason why I am here and why some things happen to us.\nI want to make sure you understand that I might be joking about things like depression or suicide, but those things are not funny. The way I deal with topics like that is my way of communicating my feelings to myself. I don\u2019t think that there are many of you who want to read about people I knew who ended their lives before their time? I don\u2019t think there are, because\u2026 well there is no \u201cbecause.\u201d It is what it is, but there is always something that each of us need to figure out for ourselves to be able to continue with living.\nI realize that this entry is not as funny as I wanted it to sound, well, hello, the subject, what do I expect?\nLast week I found myself not to be able to afford living. I am pretty sure you had one of those days too. I would think that being without money should not scare me much since I grew up during the biggest economical depression in post Soviet times. We had to learn how to survive on a few pounds of sugar per month which you could only buy if you had a special piece of whatever paper indicating that you are a human. You\u2019d say, well this is not a big deal, who needs pounds of sugar per month for their tea anyway?\nHaving enough sugar is a big deal when you have a garden bursting out with all this harvest as we had in my family. Yeah, it was quiet depressing to hear my mom say that we cannot afford to make preserves from our garden full of fruits and berries, because there is not enough sugar for that.\nThankfully that time has passed. We knew what starvation was. We read books about the Leningrad (Saint Petersburg now) blockade during the WWII. A little deficiency of sugar didn\u2019t let us down, but tough us how to deal with situations like that.\nLast week my phone got disconnected because I had no money to pay for services. I was behind my rent and with two carrots in my fridge. I found myself completely shut from the external world. I was not even sure if I had enough money on my Metro card to go to a possible work which I could miss because of my phone. I had twenty one dollars in my wallet and four dollars and forty nine cents in my bank account. They were not enough to cover my forty dollars phone bill.\nFirst of all I was not able to get those four dollars and whatever cents from my bank account because it had to be a least twenty dollars available to do the transaction. My fear got my heart going and my balls dropped and got trapped somewhere in between my knees and a hole in my long johns. It seemed that there was no way for me to do anything about the situation. Even though everything looked dark on a bright winter\u2019s day I knew that there should be a way to get out of this situation (maybe I just needed to buy a new bulb for my table lamp, maybe?).\nAfter a long discussion with myself I decided that I needed to pass by the place where I pay for my phone. I went inside thinking maybe I could somehow ask them for a credit of some sorts, I don\u2019t know, something. I looked at the table inside of the store and saw an offer which made all the difference in the world. The offer said that I could get my phone back for twenty five dollars. Boom, I received a message from whoever is manipulating our lives that everything is going to be okay, but, there was one \u201cbut,\u201d I was still missing those four dollars that were frozen in my bank account. I needed to get somehow those four dollars out of my bank before they charge ten dollars for holding those four dollars for me.\nThis is what happened next: I went to the bank, deposited sixteen dollars and took a twenty out. Boom, I had a nice twenty five dollars in my wallet and forty nine cents in my bank. My mood jumped and I was back.\nSo my dear darlings I wanted to share this with you, because we all need to figure out for yourselves how to get those four dollars from our accounts, be it for a bus ticket or some sugar to bake some cookies. The challenge is always there and it always has a purpose. Share your four dollar stories here. I want to hear how you got back from your dark place and how you have managed to retrieve those four dollars for your future.\n\u2192 \u201cPeriod of Adjustment\u201d vs. \u201cWho\u2019s Afraid of Virginia Woolf\u201d\n\u2190 \u201cher\u201d or a Hipster Love Story without Scarlett Johansson\u2019s English Muffins\n2 thoughts on \u201cA Spoonful of Sugar or My Four Dollar Story\u201d\nRemembering your wonderful garden with the juiciest cherries on the shore of Samogitia, \u2013 I can just imagine the frustration of your mum not to have sugar to make the wonderful jams and marmelade. Ridicoulesnes of those \u201ctalonai\u201d to get 1 kg per month, \u2013 I don\u2019t remember though how much per person it was. Your garden was for me then back an idillic one! Though I have been only once at your place with Popoviciais.\nToxicana, yes, it was 1 kg per person and it was only enough for 2 liters of preserves. Now imagine you have 5 buckets of cherries which you can\u2019t make into preserves :)!\nSimilar is with a human who has tremendous amounts of talent, a garden full of ripe fruit, but is not able to \u201cpreserve\u201d it because he/she is only given 1 kg of sugar.",

        "raw_content": "Riikka Perala Finnish Association of Substance Use Prevention\nCan a person use dangerous substances and still take care oneself and be healthy? Is it right to give people directions and tools for using substances, which, in the worst case, could be lethal to them? This article provides empirical examples of practices and policies designed to offer those who inject drugs opportunities and methods for taking care of themselves and, thus, the chance to lead a more balanced life, in spite of it all. Images of problem drug use have traditionally been associated with despair and devastating marginalization. Harm-reduction policies, initiated in the 1980s to combat the spread of HIV and other blood-borne viruses among drug users, raised the issue of drug use in the context of health and healthcare, and gave users new ways to think about themselves. Critics refer to this development as \u201cbiopower,\u201d in which drug users have become \u201cdocile bodies,\u201d who are expected to follow safe injecting practices and other such procedures under the surveillance of healthcare professionals. However, the users themselves have been more positive and consider harm-reduction policies not only as life saving, but life altering. This article touches on different aspects of harm-reduction policies in the context of the Foucauldian discussion of \u201ccare of the self.\u201d A somaesthetic framework is applied to understanding harm reduction as a set of practices in which helping drug users goes through their body and not through their will, as in traditional approaches to addiction. Focusing on the body provides users with new ways of thinking about their existence and relationships with themselves and others.",

        "raw_content": "Paris, France \u2014 A grassroots movement made up of citizens who have become fed up with the political establishment in France has been growing since early November and it has come to a head this week. The movement, known as \u201cgilets jaunes\u201d or \u201cyellow vests\u201d began as an anti-tax protest but has since merged folks from the left and the right into a much broader anti-government protest.\nFrench citizens have used the yellow vests that their government requires they carry in their vehicles as a symbol of this protest. As the Guardian points out, unlike previous French protest movements, it sprang up online through petitions and was organised by ordinary working people posting videos on social media, without a set leader, trade union or political party behind it.\nOver the weekend, roughly 100,000 citizens took to the streets of Paris. Most of these protesters were peaceful, however, some of extremists from the far left and far right engaged in violence against police, smashed out windows, and set fire to cars.\nOf those arrested for violence, the majority of them were \u201cprofessional\u201d rioters who had come from outside Paris to infiltrate the peaceful demonstrations, according to Paris prosecutors.\nDespite this violence, many of the police officers in France understood the anger coming from the citizens. Instead of clashing with the peaceful protesters, many of the officers were seen joining them in solidarity.\nIn at least two different cases, police were seen on video removing their helmets to show the people that they were on their side.\nIn both cases, the protesters erupted with applause and began singing La Marseillaise, the national anthem of France.\nPolitical commentator and French historian Karl Sharro explained the protest as \u201can organic leaderless protest with no clear ideology.\u201d\nAn organic, leaderless protest movement with no clear ideology has emerged in France. I've been waiting for this since 2011. Let me explain the French Spring to you.\nSharro explained that the protest is so vast because so many people have lost faith in the establishment and they are oppressed.\n\u201cFirstly, why the colour yellow? In traditional French culture, yellow represents the Mediterranean regions of France which always felt oppressed by Paris. These protests represent ancient regional grievances,\u201d he wrote.\n\u201cSecondly, why the vests? In the French psyche, the lack of arms represents \u2018helplessness\u2019. The protests are about marginalisation and the impotence felt by ordinary people.\u201d\nThe solidarity of police shows just how widely accepted this movement actually is. However, not all cops were so quick to join in. As the video below shows, it was business as usual for those who wish to remain the oppressors.\nWARNING: Footage may be disturbing for some: #GiletsJaunes pic.twitter.com/A5oF17oCKw\nAlthough French president Emmanuel Macron has largely ignored protesters in the past, due to the size of this grassroots movement, he is unable to do this any longer.\nAs the Guardian reports, Macron is now under pressure to consider the gilets jaunes\u2019 demands, which include scrapping the eco tax and raising the minimum wage. It is uncertain what measures the government might propose in the coming days. The economy minister, Bruno Le Maire, said on Monday that the government should press on with lowering taxes but at the same time lower France\u2019s high public spending.\nWhen the government\u2019s enforcers (the police) refuse to beat the people into compliance and, instead, join them, the tyrants become impotent. The incredible nature of these two scenarios provides hope for the future and illustrates the power of peacefully disobeying.\nFor the First Time Since 9/11, Federal Gov\u2019t Takes Steps to Prosecute the Use of Explosives to Destroy WTCs Next Post:\nJust A Tiny Minority Of Half A Million Jihadists?",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb News \u00bb OUT in the High Coun\u2026\nOUT in the High Country\nOctober 20, 2016 in Hometown Organizing by Jasmine\n\u201cClothing!,\u201d one participant shouted. \u201cLeg hair!,\u201d shouted another. Makeup. Accessories. Hip-to-shoulder ratio. Voice pitch. Shoes. Facial hair. Ivy and Fletcher recorded each of these responses on flip-chart pages stuck to the wall.\nThey had just posed the question \u201chow do we gender each other?\u201d to a room packed full with 76 social workers, educators, health-care providers and area service providers at the first OUT in the High Country conference held in Vilas, North Carolina. Vilas is a small town situated high up in the mountains of Western North Carolina just a few miles from the Tennessee line.\nI traveled to the conference in my role as Hometown Organizing Project Director with the Campaign for Southern Equality, one of the conference sponsors. I was there with my colleagues Britney, Ivy and Fletcher, who were also participating in various capacities \u2013 including leading a Trans Sensitivity 101 training at the start of the day.\nThe plans for this gathering were brought to our attention at the 2016 LGBT* in the South conference, when the OUT in The High Country folks applied for a grant through the Southern Equality Fund. We were impressed by their ambition and over the next six months, provided a variety of resources and support to the planning committee.\nThe High Country \u2013 made up of Ashe, Avery and Watauga counties \u2013 is a predominantly rural area, with the exception of Boone, which is home to Appalachian State University. According to the most recent US Census data, the average total population of counties in the High Country is 32,538, of which 95 percent are white and 22 percent live in poverty. Indicative of the number of Trump signs we passed as we were arriving, this area is not known for its progressive leanings.\nYet, in this unlikely of places, we were attending a conference organized by a volunteer-led committee with a focus on raising awareness about LGBTQ issues, elevating the stories of local LGBTQ individuals, and starting a conversation with local professionals about how they can participate in creating a safer, more welcoming environment for their LGBTQ clients and neighbors.\nThe planning committee \u2013 a group of LGBTQ individuals and allies, including students, social workers, clergy, educators \u2013 collectively led a crowded room through a packed-full agenda that focused on active listening, learning and meeting people where they were. When Ivy and Fletcher led everyone in a game of Gender Jeopardy during their training, the energy and excitement in the room was palpable.\nThose in attendance represented a broad spectrum of familiarity with and understanding of LGBTQ topics, vocabulary and concepts. The woman I was sitting next to had never been asked her pronouns before. Another attendee had his first experience using a urinal in an All Gender bathroom (an assumption I made based on his facial expression as he entered and saw me, female-identified, waiting in line for the stall). Other attendees were sharing stories about how they were attempting to raise their children outside of the gender box. Despite where folks came from, everyone was there because they understood that things needed to change, and that they wanted to be a part of that change.\nMoments of tension arose when despair took hold. \u201cThere are no resources.\u201d \u201cI\u2019m the only one doing this.\u201d \u201cWe have no power.\u201d \u201cThey told us no.\u201d \u201cThe parents will never let that happen.\u201d One attendee lamented that there was no existing group dedicated to supporting the local Trans community.\n\u201cBut there are Trans people here in this room!,\u201d Ivy proclaimed.\nIn fact, the gathering of folks in that room \u2013 filled with love, wisdom, and determination \u2013 was all the proof needed to demonstrate that change CAN, and already IS happening in the High Country.\nThe stories told at the OUT in the High Country \u2013 of the difficult and often times dangerous lived realities of LGBTQ community members, and the uphill battle for change \u2013 are not unique. In fact, this story might feel all too familiar for most communities across the South.\nOf the 700 grassroots groups and many more individual leaders across the South doing inspiring and courageous work to make a difference in their local communities, the majority have access only to limited funding, are working within an actively hostile local climate, rely on the volunteer leadership of folks who are often working full-time jobs and supporting families, and experience isolation from the support of the larger LGBTQ movement.\nYet, in these same communities, there exists incredible resilience, creativity and resourcefulness.\nIf I learned one thing from OUT in the High Country, it\u2019s that we already have what it takes. Everyday, local leadership is making significant strides with very little.Through our work across the region, we see examples of this all the time. Imagine what could be achieved if grassroots leadership had access to adequate funding and support.\nThis vision drives the Campaign for Southern Equality\u2019s work to support Southern LGBTQ grassroots leadership through the Southern Equality Fund, a grantmaking initiative designed to direct resources to Southern LGBTQ grassroots groups and leaders that are isolated or under-resourced due to geography or demographics.\nTo everyone who came out for OUT in the High Country: thank you for letting us be a part of your journey. It was an honor and a privilege to stand behind your leadership and support your efforts. Also, your home and community are beautiful \u2013 thank you for sharing them with us!\nChloe Stuber is the Hometown Organizing Project Director with the Campaign for Southern Equality. Chloe is based in Charleston, SC.",

        "raw_content": "Broadcaster Jon Miller to be Inducted Into Baseball Hall of Fame Sunday\nJuly 22, 2010 General SportsBaseball Hall of Fame, Jon MillerSportsView\nJon Miller (left) will be introduced at the Baseball HOF Induction Ceremony by Joe Morgan, his ESPN broadcast partner and Hall of Fame member\nHall of Fame broadcaster, Jon Miller. That has a great sound to it, just like the man\u2019s radio and television descriptions of the game of baseball.\nSunday, Miller, who broadcasts nationally for ESPN and locally for the San Francisco Giants, will be inducted into the broadcasters wing of the Baseball Hall of Fame. He \u201cgot the call\u201d while on a cruise with his wife just after they had docked in Cartagena, Columbia in early February. Miller couldn\u2019t help himself when he told his wife the news.\n\u201cSo I go up, find her on deck and say, \u2018By the way, sweetheart, there\u2019s a question I\u2019ve been meaning to ask you.'\u201d Miller reminisced.\n\u201cDid you ever sleep with a member of the Baseball Hall of Fame? She got a little ticked off and said, \u2018What kind of question is that?\u2026Oh, oh. Wait\u2026a\u2026minute!\u2019 So it was kind of fun that way.\u201d\nLeave it to Miller, who routinely does yoga to relax in the broadcast booth, to find a creative way to inform his wife of his election to the Hall. Everything he does in \u2013 and apparently out of \u2013 the booth is creative. Miller was one of the great announcers I had the privilege to listen to over the years.\nFrom the time I began listening to baseball broadcasts on radio (and occasionally on television), I have listened to some of the greats of the game. Mel Allen and Red Barber in New York\u2026Vin Scully in Los Angeles\u2026Harry Caray and Jack Buck in St. Louis\u2026Ernie Harwell in Detroit\u2026Chuck Thompson in Baltimore\u2026and, of course, Miller also in Baltimore.\nHe broadcast\u2019s games like the listener is a friend. Accuracy is very important to him, even if it is radio. He prides himself on calling the right pitch thrown. Every game is important\u2026despite posting some really bad seasons, people in Baltimore always tuned into WBAL radio\u2026first to hear Thompson, then Miller\u2026to hear how the O\u2019s were doing.\nOne time in particular, might have really confused people. The O\u2019s were being blown out, and Miller was in full stride\u2026one inning he broadcast the game doing his great impression of Vin Scully\u2026the next, he broadcast in Spanish\u2026and my favorite\u2026one inning in Japanese. Seriously, you had to listen.\nJon Miller has broadcast games for the Oakland A\u2019s (1974), the Texas Rangers (1978-79), the Boston Red Sox (1980-82), the Baltimore Orioles (1983-96) and the San Francisco Giants (1997-present). He also called the Game of the Week on NBC (1986-89) before moving to ESPN\u2019s Sunday Night Baseball (1990-present). First only local fans of these teams had the opportunity to hear Jon Miller\u2026but nationally since 1986, if just for one night a week, everyone could (can) hear his stories and learn about the game\u2019s history.\nOn Sunday afternoon, Miller will be introduced a the Hall of Fame induction ceremony by his longtime ESPN partner and Hall of Famer himself, Joe Morgan. After his acceptance speech, which should be very entertaining, Miller will be followed by the day\u2019s other inductees: umpire Doug Harvey, manager Whitey Herzog and outfielder Andre Dawson. Indeed, these inductees are in great company.\nHall of Fame Broadcaster, Jon Miller\nI have met Jon Miller on several occasions, but the one I remember best was an early March spring training game in Ft. Lauderdale, FL, between the Orioles and the New York Yankees. No one noticed the large, nearly bald guy wearing a big flowered shirt walking up to the booth\u2026except for me. I asked if he had a minute\u2026and he did. He said, \u201cIt\u2019s only spring training, but I can\u2019t wait to get going and let the folks back home know how the O\u2019s are looking.\u201d As for Miller, he was in mid-season form\u2026in both voice and dress.\nCongratulations to Jon Miller\u2026I hope you have a chance to hear him call a game or two!\nToday\u2019s World Cup Quarterfinal Match-Ups\nJuly 2, 2010 General SportsSportsView\nThe Netherlands' Arjen Robben must be a big part of this game or the Dutch will he heading home\nGood Morning! We have a potential FIFA World Cup classic for you in the early morning game. Two outstanding teams, both of whom could win it all\u2026but they are meeting in today\u2019s quarterfinal match-up.\nEach team is more defensively-minded than in the past when offense was the name of the game. Back in 1974, when the Dutch were known as Clockwork Orange for their amazing passing and offensive skills, they defeated Brazil 2-0. Brazil returned the favor in a 3-2 quarterfinal victory 20 years later, when a late free kick won the game after the Dutch came back from a 2-0 deficit. Finally, in the 1998 semifinal, Brazil won in a penalty shootout.\nMy gut feeling, after seeing both teams play a lot in the past few weeks, is we are looking at another one goal game\u2026I am not sure who will get the victory, but I am favoring Brazil today. Brazil features a great scorer (usually from the left side) Robinho, who usually plays in front of Kaka. Names by now, everyone knows. The Dutch score from the right side, with Arjen Robben looking for the net.\nDefense is where the game will be decided\u2026which team will have the better game? Stop Robben and Brazil keeps on playing\u2026stop Robinho, and the Dutch will be 2-2 against Brazil in the World Cup and will head to the semifinal round.\nRegardless, one of these two teams definitely can win the World Cup. Brazil is my choice.\nUruguay's Diego Lugano heads a stout defense\nThis is another tough match-up to call\u2026because I would like to see both teams advance for different reasons. Uruguay has looked very good\u2026considering this is one of the few countries in the world to have won a World Cup (they beat Brazil, 2-1, in front of 200,000 Brazilian fans in Rio de Janeiro\u2019s new Maracana Stadium back in 1950)\u2026Uruguay\u2019s population is about 3.5 million \u2013 the size of Connecticut\u2026Uruguay is bordered by Argentina and Brazil\u2026and seems to have been infected with the good soccer played in both of those countries.\nGhana\u2026conquerors of the United States (in extra time)\u2026so we should pull for them, right? Ghana, the last African nation playing\u2026again, we should pull for them, right? Ghana\u2026there just may be some magic left as an entire continent is now backing them.\nBut, only 11 players on the field at a time does not a continent make. Uruguay, the Sky Blues, feature Diego Forlan, a dangerous striker and Diego Lugano, their captain, who heads up a stingy defense. If they are on their game, Ghana will be heading back 3000 miles to their homes after today\u2019s late game. Ghana has Asamoah Gyan, as you will recall from the U.S. match. He is fast and has a lethal shot.\nIt comes down to this for me: who can score goals\u2026it is Uruguay, and they will advance to the semifinals with a victory over the Black Stars.",

        "raw_content": "(The Thirteenth Day of the Blessed Month of Babah)\nThe Departure of Saint Zacharias, the Monk\nOn this day, St. Zacharias the monk, departed. His father's name was Karyos. He was married, but he longed for the monastic life. He told his wife about what was on his mind and she agreed to it. Karyos had a son, called Zacharias and a daughter. He left them with their mother and went to the desert of Scete and became a monk at the hands of a holy old man.\nShortly after, there was a great famine in the country and the wife took the two children and came to the desert where their father Karyos was. She complained to him about the tribulation which had come upon her through the famine and handed him the children. But Karyos told her, \"God has divided the two children between us. You take the girl and leave the boy with me.\" She took her daughter and departed. Karyos took his son Zacharias and brought him to the elders who prayed over him and they prophesied that he would become a perfect monk.\nZacharias was brought up well in the desert, and advanced in every virtue. Because he was exceedingly handsome and his fair look, there were many murmurs in the desert because of him and they said, \"How is it, a boy like that dwells in the desert among the monks?\" When St. Zacharias heard that, he went to lake El-Natroun (which was very salty) without telling anyone. He took off his apparel, plunged his body into the lake, and remained in it for many hours. The color of his body became black and he looked like a leper. Then he went forth from the water, put on his apparel and came to his father who did not recognize him until he had stared at him closely. When he asked him about what had changed his appearance, he told him what he had done.\nWhen it was Sunday, he went with his father to the church to partake of the Holy Mysteries. The Lord revealed to St. Isidore, the priest of Scete, what St. Zacharias had done. He marvelled and said to the monks, \"Zacharias received the offering last Sunday as a man, but now he has become an angel.\"\nThis saint possessed many virtues, especially the virtue of humility in which he had reached such a degree of perfection that his father said about him, \"I have labored greatly in the fight, but I have never attained the extent of my son Zacharias.\"\nSt. Zacharias lived a strenuous life and strove exceedingly hard for 45 years. When he came to the desert, he was seven years old and all the days of his life numbered 52 years, then he departed in peace.\nHis prayers be with us and Glory be to our God, forever. Amen\nhttps://st-takla.org/books/en/church/synaxarium/02-babah/13-baba-zacharias.html",

        "raw_content": "How is Technology affecting the Franchise Industry?\nHome | Blog | How is Technology affecting the Franchise Industry?\nStart Your New Franchise has already released a lot of information about technology and how it affects the Franchise Industry but we decided to post this separate article, focusing on technology, because the gravity of how much it really is changing franchises and businesses worldwide. To start off, all you have to do is consider where you are reading this post; it\u2019s on the internet, on a website that helps you navigate the best franchises out there, allowing you to define exactly what you are after with a click of a button easily and intuitively. Then think about how did you get here; did you use a global search engine such as Google, which can provide answers to most of the questions out there, or were you on a social platform that is personalised to show exactly what you and your friends are interested in? Technology has really changed nearly everything in terms of how we complete daily tasks, which was once considered the norm. This article will go into further detail, listing how technology is affecting the franchise industry but also how it is likely to change it in the future.\nHow has Technology affected the Franchise Industry?\nTechnology hasn\u2019t just focused on the franchise industry, it has affected all of us at nearly every point of our lives, but it has specifically improved or even hurt franchises in particular in the past. We can\u2019t explain all technology leaps that have affected franchising as that list would be huge, as franchising, in one form or another, has been about since the Middle ages, according to Wikipedia. This means we are only talking the last 10 years but even that small time period has huge technology leaps. Think back to 2007 when the first iPhone was released, how much has that affected business? The iPhone which is still considered one of, or the best, Smartphone and it changed how we communicated on so many levels. This type of mobile communication allows franchisees to pretty much work where they like, as long as they have signal. This is the largest change that has allowed such things as part-time or work at home franchises to thrive. You are no longer required to be in the office or even in a building at all to communicate with your employees or manage the business. It has truly modernised the way in which we operate in business and enables people to be ready to tackle problems anytime, anywhere, at the touch of a finger.\nOther Franchises have been created specifically because of technology, for example - Platinum Business Partners. This franchise allows you to create your own online retail business via established ecommerce platforms. This Franchise just wouldn\u2019t exist without technology and they\u2019re many others which are around purely due to technology.\nThen you have the other side of technology advancements; some franchises have and will cease to exist because technology has deemed them redundant. If you\u2019ve ever heard of Slice of Strife, an American Pizzeria franchise, then you will know that these have fallen on hard times - why? because of technology. They targeted indoor food courts in malls and other areas, which may be confusing as to how this relates to technology but if you were to consider the reason behind people frequenting malls less, you will find your answer \u2013 online shopping. The ability to shop online means less people need to visit these large structures which could take over half an hour to get to when you can just go on your phone and order items without leaving your couch. This shows that technology might not be something that you think will affect your chosen franchise but it really does link into every business, so one way or another and you have to find that link to be aware of any threats or opportunities for your business.\nHow is Technology going to affect the future of Franchising?\nThis isn\u2019t a straightforward answer as the capabilities of technology are ever-evolving; driverless cars, something most people couldn\u2019t even conceive 50 years ago now is already happening, but this technology leap alone will change all franchises that operate vehicles. So, to say how exactly it is going to affect the future of franchising is impossible, but we will outline some technology that you should be aware of:\nEnergy is a controversial matter because of the affects it has on the planet, which is creating a problem for most businesses because of the tax and customer perception that will hit businesses if they are using \u201cbad\u201d energy sources such as coal, oil & gas. Technology has given us the ability to use renewable energy, something that isn\u2019t entirely cost effective at the moment but look forward to 30 years where we are expecting a much greater return on the investment. If you don\u2019t adapt to new forms of energy for your vehicles, building or factories, then you will be hit with more and more legislation which will require you to pay more to clean the environment for your \u201cbad\u201d energy use, as well as a loss of environmentally concerned customers because you are destroying their planet.\nThis is a larger scope of technology than you may initially assume, as the things that people often first think of are robots building cars etc, but automation occurs at many levels of a business. For example, e-commerce, you can put all your products online, automate the buying process, automate the communication to the supply chain, automate the marketing collateral to customer, automate the customer journeys on your site and the list goes on. Automation isn\u2019t a single step in your business, it can be many steps which are constantly evolving and if you don\u2019t adapt to this more efficient model then how can you compete with a business that requires a fraction of your workforce to do the same or even better job?\nIf you haven\u2019t heard of this term then I would definitely recommend you research it as its going to be one of the major shifts in technology over the next 15 years \u2013 and it has already begun. Internet of Things, in very basic terms, means everything is connected to the internet; think of the new Google Home, a device that\u2019s already in a lot of homes. This device allows people to get answers, communicate and complete a lot of things that a computer could do, just through voice command. To show the scale of Internet of Things, consider the new Fitbit; a device you wear that records your heart rate and others bodily functions as you live your life. These may not seem as directly relevant to franchises but it\u2019s what you can potentially do with these future devices that will become opportunities for franchises. Imagine if Fitbit allowed you to record your bodily systems while completing activates at a gym that can directly link to the gyms software to record how exactly you are performing on each task, what you are finding hard and what needs to improve. This will entice all the elite performance gym goers and will present a competitive edge over other gyms that haven\u2019t adapted, thus meaning a threat for the less technology advanced gym franchises.\nHow to think about Technology\nThe point of this article wasn\u2019t to list off all new technologies that might affect a franchise, it\u2019s to make you aware that technological advancements are everywhere and you need to be aware of them and keep up. Start Your New Franchise want you to make your franchise a success and want you to choose the best franchise, so we hope that this article has informed you that a link from a new piece of technology may not be apparent but if you research well enough, you can find a potential threat to your existing business model if you fail to be aware and adapt.",

        "raw_content": "\u00ab Haley on Russia and Iran: 'I don't think anything is off the table' \u2013 CNN\nChina, South Korea discuss more sanctions on North Korea amid talk of Trump action \u2013 Reuters \u00bb\nUS, China agree on North Korea nuclear threat, Tillerson says \u2013 WMUR Manchester\nChina understands how dangerous North Korea\u2019s nuclear program has become and agrees action must be taken to stop it, US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson said Sunday, as the US sent an aircraft carrier strike group toward the Korean Peninsula.\n\u201cI think even China is beginning to recognize that this presents a threat to even China\u2019s interests,\u201d Tillerson said during an interview on CBS\u2019 \u201cFace the Nation\u201d program Sunday. He was asked about how North Korea was discussed during last week\u2019s summit between US President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping.\n\u201cPresident Xi clearly understands, and I think agrees, that the situation has intensified and has reached a certain level of threat that action has to be taken,\u201d Tillerson said.\nTillerson did not offer specifics on what those actions might be, but said in Seoul last month that the US would consider military action against North Korea if it was provoked.\nDespite Tillerson\u2019s assessment, China hasn\u2019t signaled any change in its approach to Pyongyang in the wake of the landmark summit.\nChina\u2019s Ministry of Foreign Affairs didn\u2019t mention North Korea in two statements it released after the two leaders met, and on Monday ministry spokeswoman Hua Chunying stuck to Beijing\u2019s usual script.\n\u201cChina\u2019s position on the Korean Peninsula issue has been consistent,\u201d she said.\n\u201cDuring the China-US presidential summit at Mar-a-Lago, both sides said they were committed to the goal of denuclearizing the peninsula, would continue to comprehensively carry out UN Security Council resolutions related to North Korea, and agreed to keep close communication and coordination on the issue.\u201d\nEarlier this year, China called on both North Korea and the US to ease tensions on the Korean Peninsula \u2014 Pyongyang by suspending its nuclear weapon and missile program and Washington by stopping military exercises with South Korea that antagonize Pyongyang.\nHua reiterated this approach at Monday\u2019s briefing.\nWarship heads to Korean Peninsula, not Australia\nThe comments from Washington\u2019s top diplomat came as the Pentagon announced it was sending an aircraft carrier strike group to the waters off the Korean Peninsula.\nThe move of the USS Carl Vinson strike group is in response to recent North Korean provocations, a US defense official confirmed to CNN.\nThe Vinson and its escorts, including the guided-missile destroyers USS Wayne E. Meyer and USS Michael Murphy and the guided-missile cruiser USS Lake Champlain, left Singapore Saturday and headed toward South Korea rather than planned port calls in Australia, according to a statement from US Pacific Command.\nSouth Korea said the movement of the Vinson strike group \u201cis a result of recognizing the grave situation on the Korean Peninsula.\u201d\n\u201cGiven that many political events are taking place (in April) there is a possibility for a strategic provocation from North Korea such as a nuclear test and missile launch,\u201d South Korean Defense Ministry spokesman Moon Sang-kyun said.\nJapan, which has seen previous North Korean missile tests fall within 200 miles of its coast, praised the US carrier movement.\n\u201cWhile the regional security environment becomes increasingly difficult to maintain, it\u2019s important to secure the power of US deterrence,\u201d Chief Cabinet Secretary Yoshihide Suga said.\nThe carrier strike group\u2019s movement comes just days before North Korea celebrates the April 15 birthday of deceased leader Kim Il Sung, the grandfather of current leader Kim Jong Un. There has been much speculation that Pyongyang will test missiles or possibly a nuclear device to mark the day.\nThe US carrier group also left Singapore just days after North Korea\u2019s most recent missile test.\nOn April 5, North Korea launched a projectile, later identified as a Scud extended-range missile, into the sea off the Korean Peninsula. There were conflicting accounts about how far it flew. The regime also has recently conducted several missile engine tests as it works to improve its ballistic missile technology.\nIn September, North Korea says it successfully tested a nuclear warhead. Pyongyang claims it is pursuing nuclear weapons to defend itself from what it calls US aggression.\nAnalysts said the movement of the US warships was likely defensive in nature.\nBruce Bennett, senior defense analyst at the Rand Corp. think tank, said in an email to CNN that the US destroyers and cruiser sailing with the carrier are equipped with the Aegis anti-missile system.\n\u201cIf North Korea were to test some number of ballistic missiles by firing them into the East Sea/Sea of Japan, these warships would have the potential of intercepting the North Korean test missile,\u201d Bennett said.\nHe said they aren\u2019t carrying the weaponry needed for a strike against Pyongyang\u2019s nuclear program, something analysts consider highly unlikely.\n\u201cBecause North Korea places most of its assets underground, it will be difficult for the Vinson group to do a lot of damage to North Korea on its own,\u201d he said.",

Sometimes it was hard to think of new and different questions to ask each week. I wanted to make it a little easier on my fellow counselors and created a whole list of questions.\nThe questions at the beginning of the document tend to be more just \u201cgetting to know you\u201d questions, and then get more personal later on in the document.\nThe questions are on grids, to make it easier to cut and place in a question box for lunch groups. You can put the questions on cardstock and have students pick out a question to answer. Enjoy!!",

This was before space travel and the Beatles, and although it was the height of the Cold War, the construction of the Berlin Wall was still five years away. Telephones were clunky (remember those rotary dials?), computers were massive but limited in what they could do, and the idea of communicating instantly with people anywhere in the world was only true in science fiction novels.\nAnd yet, Mrs. Fleming\u2019s dream of bringing people of all nations and cultures together to live and learn took root in those times.\nThis year, we celebrate 60 years of Mrs. Fleming\u2019s vision, and the ever-growing community of people around the world who have been inspired by their time at TASIS.\nEvents begin in January and continue through Founder\u2019s Day 2016. We hope you will join us for our Diamond Anniversary Celebration on the weekend of August 19-20, which will include alumni performances, a Serata Ticinese catered by Angelo Piattini & friends, and a gala evening featuring a special performance of MCF: What a Life!\nWe hope you enjoy browsing this special website.

        "raw_content": "Today on Mindset Monday, Ryan M. Esquivel shares his journey to overcome Survivors Guilt, PTSD and trauma to living a life that is full of love, joy and helping others on their own personal journey.\nHis journey began in February of 2004 when his roommate and best friend was killed in action. He was with him a couple of hours before he died and that moment kept playing in his head long after he returned home.\nWhen he returned home he threw himself into work and his military relationship suffered, his personal relationships suffered, because he wanted his friend back. Ryan began to blame people and his world contracted as people began leaving him. It wasn\u2019t until about 2008 when he experienced a one in a million moments.\nA private ran into him in Southern California and asked him if he knew his roommate. It turned out that it was his best friend. They learned to value each other and became really good friends over the years. Ryan tells us that was the start of his faith, a belief in a God, energy, something out there. He began to start to put his life together and see-sawed back and forth of finding a job, losing a job, in and out of that dark place.\nHe discovered that you need to find the joy, your purpose and the meaning of life. It may sound cliche but when you are on a journey you learn that when you share your pain it feels better. It wasn\u2019t until 2018 that looking back he was able to see, people had been taking care of him all along.\nHis Fav. Book\nAs we get deep into Ryan\u2019s journey he shares how carrying Survivors Guilt began to impact his relationship with his family. He replayed the picture in his mind and wanted to go back and change it. He realized that loving people is hard, sharing is hard and the more you love and share the easier it becomes.

The palate is similar, but a touch darker: salty cocoa, black raspberry, plum skin and chalky minerality. Despite the wine's serious tannins, the overall impression is one of gracefulness, and it should provide a great deal of pleasure in both the near and longer term.

The summer was warm but without serious heat spikes, and our coolest August in a decade slowed ripening at a critical period. When it warmed back up in September, the fruit tumbled in, and we finished in mid-October, about two weeks earlier than normal. The result was a vintage with excellent concentration balanced by good freshness, which should be vibrant and powerful young, but with the balance to age.

        "raw_content": "Omega-3s Lower Intraocular Pressure: Implications for Glaucoma\nGlaucoma is a chronic condition that progressively damages the optic nerve, leading to vision loss and potential blindness. Because increased intraocular pressure (IOP) can contribute to optic nerve damage, a primary goal in glaucoma management is to lower IOP. IOP-lowering eyedrops are first-line therapy, and surgery is indicated in more advanced cases. Few other options exist to slow the progression of glaucoma.\nChronic inflammation accompanies most chronic diseases, and diabetes is no exception. Vitamin D has been shown to play a role in glycemic control and reducing the risk of diabetes. Increasing evidence points to its anti-inflammatory effect as the primary mechanism of action. For example, vitamin D has demonstrated (in human and animal studies) to improve insulin sensitivity by inhibiting cytokine-induced apoptosis of beta cells. Because of mixed results from cross-sectional and clinical trials, however, there is no consensus on the effect of vitamin D supplementation on inflammation in diabetes.\nL-Citrulline and Glutathione Support Lean Muscle Mass\nExercise and muscle performance are influenced by nutritional status and might be improved by nutrient supplementation. Short-term studies of up to 7 days have found that L-citrulline malate supplementation improves skeletal muscle metabolism and that the combination of L-citrulline and reduced glutathione (GSH) boosts plasma levels of L-citrulline, L-arginine, and nitric oxide metabolites\u2014compounds that support muscle mass.\nFish Oil and Blueberry Supplementation in Mild Cognitive Decline\nSubjective cognitive decline refers to the self-reported decline in cognitive function without evidence of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) or Alzheimer\u2019s disease (AD). Subjective cognitive decline increases the risk for future dementia and provides a window of opportunity to target modifiable risk factors. Diet and nutritional supplementation are important aspects of risk modification.\nGreen Leafy Vegetables Slow Cognitive Decline of Aging\nPrevious prospective studies have found that green leafy vegetables offer more protection against cognitive decline than any other vegetables. To further explore this association and to evaluate individual nutrients in green leafy vegetables, researchers conducted another prospective study, which was published in 2018 in the journal Neurology.\nGinkgo Biloba Supports Cognitive Function After Stroke\nCognitive function often declines after a stroke, and the prevalence of dementia in stroke survivors is approximately 30%. In a multicenter, randomized, controlled trial, researchers investigated the effects of Ginkgo biloba extract on neurological deficits and cognitive decline after acute stroke.\nProbiotics Reduce Frequency of Upper Respiratory Infections\nSupporting immune function may reduce the frequency of upper respiratory infections (URIs), and probiotics are known to balance both the innate and adaptive immune responses. A randomized controlled trial, published in the European Journal of Nutrition 2011, showed that taking a combination of Lactobacillus plantarum and Lactobacillus paracasei reduced the frequency and severity of the common cold in healthy adults. Researchers at the Beijing Chaoyang Hospital then conducted a 12-week intervention trial to further evaluate the effects of probiotic supplementation in adults with frequent URIs.\nVitamin D and Omega-3s for PCOS: A Randomized Trial\nPolycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) is marked by ovarian cysts, hirsutism, menstrual irregularities, impaired fertility, and mood dysfunction. The biochemical imbalances of PCOS, which include hyperandrogenism, insulin resistance, oxidative stress, and chronic inflammation, increase a woman\u2019s risk for diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Like most metabolic diseases, lifestyle changes and nutritional support are foundational in reducing the risk of disease progression, complications, and comorbidities.\nSilymarin Improves Metabolic Parameters of Type 2 Diabetes\nSilybum marianum (milk thistle) seed has a long tradition of use to support liver and gastrointestinal health. Silymarin is a standardized extract of milk thistle seeds, which contains antioxidant and anti-inflammatory constituents. Because oxidative stress plays a role in the pathophysiology of type 2 diabetes, it is biologically plausible that silymarin might improve the metabolic parameters of this disease.\nSerum Vitamin D and Risk of Cardiovascular Mortality\nVitamin D is thought to be required for cardiovascular health, with mechanistic studies showing that vitamin D may affect endothelial function, fibrosis, and inflammation. Meta-analyses of observational studies have determined that serum vitamin D (25OHD) is inversely related to cardiovascular mortality in healthy individuals, but studies among patients with cardiovascular disease have produced inconsistent results.",

        "title": "How Historically Accurate is Skyrim? Part 4",
        "raw_content": "How Historically Accurate is Skyrim? Part 4\nFiled to: historically accurateFiled to: historically accurate\nThere's lots of things I enjoy about over-analysing Skyrim, and the responses I get are a big part of that. There are a pleasingly small number of people that misread the title and my intentions (\"Oh sure, the game with dragons is veeery accurate\u2026\"), and a fantastic number of readers willing to add their own knowledge and join the discussion. Sometimes, one of you lovely people will step in and flesh out something I have mentioned or correct a minor mistake, which is awesome to see. Learning should be a two-way exercise after all. And there's still a lot of untapped History within The Elder Scrolls.\nIf you're joining this gaming/history blog at Part 4, hello and welcome. I started playing Skyrim for the first time last November, and I've been climbing every tower and turning every rock for signs of History. Sometimes real life Historic details are the clear inspiration for a detail in the game, and sometimes the game appears to stumble into a historic comparison. And in one particular situation, History actually helps to explain one of the most famous lines in the game\u2026\n\"I used to be an adventure like you\u2026\"\nI was surprised by how few NPCs have actually expressed the immortal phrase, \"I used to be an adventurer like you, but then I took an arrow in the knee\" during my journey. Oh sure, at least four different people have shared that particular woe with me, but the sheer magnitude of references to this phrase on the internet had led me to believe that this line of dialogue punctuated every sentence. I half expected to discover that this was actually a form of greeting among townsfolk.\nWhatever your view of the in-game catchphrase, the statement is very strange. There seem to be a lot of old adventurers with life-altering wounds in the same region of the body. This is doubly odd when you consider the presence of magic \u2013 a swift restoration spell can heal even the most grotesque of wounds. Why are there so many people in this world with long term injuries that shouldn't exist?\nHistory provides an answer.\nTo start with, we have to consider the function of arrows. The main purpose \u2013 as I'm sure we all know \u2013 is to allow the user to stab a target from long range. A nice thin, sharp arrow head will find its way through most light armour and cause the target a distinct amount of grief. However, this isn't the only purpose. Most arrows are designed to find their way into the soft, squishy, important parts of a person and set up home there.\nAbove is a collection of arrowhead designs. The 'barbed'' arrowheads present the gruesome way that arrows are made to cause maximum pain. The arrow goes in very easily, but will want to stay forever. This actually exploits the way that the skin and muscle with try to naturally close a wound. To make matters worse, arrow heads are usually bound to the arrow shaft in such a way that they will break away if yanked on. A common adhesive was beeswax; the arrow head would stay glued on in flight, but come undone when the injured warrior tries to de-arrow themselves. That might help to explain why not every arrow in Skyrim can be retrieved from the corpse of your recently departed enemies.\nThis situation was so common that barber-surgeons actually invented arrow-pulling tools to make the job easier. They did not make the job less excruciating or graphic. Most of these tools involved pushing/pulling the surrounding flesh further away from the missile, making it easier to retrieve the offending item by hand. You would want a Potion of Cure Disease handy, because the process is undoubtedly going to lead to infection alongside the brain-punching pain. The surgeon at hand may have an anesthetic (white wine was popular in Europe) and maybe a mild sedative (opiates if they've got them), but there's no denying this process is incredibly dangerous. And if it goes wrong, the barber surgeon may return with another tool: a dirty, big saw.\nNo matter how magical the environment, I wouldn't blame any resident of Skyrim if they turned down the procedure. A flesh wound can be healed, but an arrow inside the knee is not coming out without visiting a world of pain. Especially since some of the arrow designs in the game are really elaborate. It's conceivable then that injured warriors may turn to the other form of surgery available. It's still painful, but brief and with less risk of amputation: cauterisation. A few pokes with a red-hot poker would seal the flesh right over that tricky little arrow head. In my mind, it is entirely plausible that the NPCs bitterly recalling their adventuring days are the people that feared the more invasive surgery. Or worse: they had the arrow pulled, but the surgeon didn't do a very good job and left a piece of arrow behind...\nAn abundance of Xenophobia\nPeople in Tamriel are so mean too each other. Wherever you go, someone is talking trash about Dark Elves or Bretons or anyone who doesn't look like them. It could be argued that racism is going to be more prevalent in a place where there are actually different races.\nWhat I want to consider is: did xenophobia exist on this level in our past? Or is there something in the water making these people ultra-bigoted?\nThe word 'barbarian' springs to mind. In its original form, the word means 'foreigner', yet today the word conjures up an image of a slovenly, dull-witted warrior with a thirst for violence. The Romans used the word to refer to pretty much anyone that couldn't speak Latin (and the Ancient Greeks used the phrase to refer to pretty much anyone who wasn't Greek). While the word is innocent, there is an undertone of smug-patronisation implied in its usage. The Romans certainly thought that 1st century Britons were an odd bunch:\n\"Very many [Britons] who dwell farther inland do not sow grain but live on milk and flesh, clothing themselves in skins. All the Britons paint themselves with woad, which produces a dark blue color; and for this reason they are much more frightful in appearance in battle. They permit their hair to grow long, shaving all parts of the body except the head and the upper lip. Ten and twelve have wives 16 common among them\u2026\" Julius Caesar, 55BC\nThis is big man Julius describing the \"most civilised\" Britons he knows of, and even then he considers them to be hairy, scary wife-swappers that don't know how farming works. Brutish and uncivilised. This is the way that the highly advance Romans saw the tribes that they were conquering. If there's a parallel to be drawn with Skyrim, it's with the Nords and their views on races they deem lesser than them. Nords will refer to each other as 'Kinsman', and sneer at at the more tribal species.\nOn the other hand, many tribes found an easy peace with the Roman invaders \u2013 the Trinovantes in the East of England were more than willing to befriend the conquering legions \u2013 rather than resist. Even the notorious Boudicca showed respect and civility to the Romans\u2026 that is until her husband died. After the Romans took her land and abused her family, her opinion of the Romans turned wildly.\nThe Vikings are similarly remembered for their 'barbarism'. According to contemporary sources, they were violent and vicious pirates who beat up monks and burnt their monasteries. If this was entirely true, then it must be pointed out that when most Viking raids were at there height, the Vikings were Pagans; Christianity meant very little. To the Scandinavians, the wooden monasteries full of gold and silver would have made for easy targets, but the plundering would not have been sacrilegious. Furthermore, the sources that have recorded Viking raids largely come from monks and other holy men. One famous bad-mouther of Vikings was Alcuin, a Christian scholar, who went to great pains to record how evil and horrific Viking attacks were along the English coast, despite spending most of his time in Europe.\nThis is not to say that all Viking xenophobia was unwarranted; the British tribes had reason to be wary. Not all Vikings came to raid \u2013 the word Viking is a collective term after all. Many Vikings came to occupy Northern England and parts of Ireland and Scotland with a greater focus on trading resources back to Denmark and the rest of Scandinavia. King Canute (also spelt Cnut by those that like to live dangerously) was able to conquer England, snatching it from Anglo-Saxon rule, and what followed was nearly twenty years of peace and prosperity. Vikings and Saxons would continue fighting long after that, but History proves they were capable of being civil.\nOf course, it's very easy to see how the local populace would mutter negativity. In Tamriel and in reality, a great deal of conflict has occurred, a great deal of which has been fought between different regional groups. Whilst kings and chiefs can broker peace, the underlying tensions will not dissipate easily.\nFor most medieval people, travel is not part of their existence. Tribes were far more isolated by their smaller populations and the level of technology. If a visitor did appear, they were either coming to wage war or trade. If the visitor is a Norseman, it could well be both. The level of Xenophobia would therefore depend on the unique experience of that village. Given that most people had no need to read or write, there was little chance that the average Saxon would have their opinion swayed by an angry monk's writings. In Skyrim then, the Xenophobia is rifer due to the way in which various races/species are merged into the same living space. Diversity is high in Tamriel, but so are racial tensions. I blame the Nords myself.\nJust two comparisons this time around. Usually the connections between History and Videogame are much smaller, briefer topics; I felt that historic medicine and historic attitudes were much broader topics and should be given more space. There were many more comments I could have made about ancient health practices, and much more could be said about historic xenophobia. I think I could easily overdo the latter; this is intended as a light-hearted, videogame analysis after all.\nI hope you continue to enjoy this kind of blog, and that if you have any knowledge to add, (or corrections to make) then you will leave a comment below. I've definitely got a Part 5 lined up, and then I'll be looking for another game to over-analyse. I've already had some great suggestions.\nYou can contact the author @RedHeadPeak.

        "raw_content": "Sri Lankan Teachers to join Strike against Electricity Price Rises\nTeachers and principals in Sri Lanka are to join a strike called by the Coordinating Committee for Trade Union Alliance on May 21st, against the rise in electricity prices. Teachers have not had a pay rise since 2005, under conditions where there have been high levels of inflation. As is so often the case, particularly in the Global South, when teachers and other people are suffering economic hardship, the International Monetary Fund has a hand in the situation. In a press release dated February 2013, the IMF states: The mission discussed the financial performances of the Ceylon Electricity Board and Ceylon Petroleum Corporation, which were adversely affected by last year\u2019s drought, and emphasized the need to move toward cost recovery pricing to place them on a sustainable footing.\nThe Lanka Teacher Services Union has issued the following statement announcing their participation in the strike:\n\"Teachers have not received any salary increase since 2005 except for a few allowances. As such, the increase in electricity tariffs would be a serious situation. Issues regarding salary anomalies have continued since 1997. Two struggles were carried out last year. The teachers have not received any promotions. They have worked without promotions since 2010. 225000 teachers carry out their services under such pathetic conditions.\nIt is in such a situation that the electricity tariffs are increased. Normally teachers consume more than 90 units. As such, teachers' trade unions have decided to join the token strike called by the Coordinating Committee for Trade Union Alliance on the 21st if the increased tariffs are not withdrawn.\nWe have informed Secretaries of Ministries of Education and Provincial Councils in writing that we would join the token strike. The government tries to deceive the masses by bringing in various amendments. We say the whole increased package should be withdrawn. We would join the protest march against the tariff hike to be held on the 15th.\nDuring our struggles the government attempted to repress them through intimidation and terror tactics. Now police have been asked to collect lists of trade union leaders in certain areas. We would want to know why gentlemen in the police need lists of trade union leaders. We say such petty acts would not be able to defeat our activities and struggles. We would dedicate ourselves to defeat vile actions of the government and make the struggle on the 21st a total success.\"\nIMF | low pay",

Set-up filters and folders so that certain e-mails go into specific folders. This way you can go directly to a folder to check your most important e-mails versus wading through all of your incoming e-mail to get to the pertinent ones.\nReceive voicemails through your e-mail\nBelieve it or not, you\u2019re probably sending quite a bit of time checking voicemails each week as well. A more efficient way to receive your voicemails is to have them come to you via an e-mail attachment. This way you can check your e-mail and voicemails simultaneously.\nCreate an electronic to-do list\nCreating your to-do list via an online platform has a few benefits. You can share it with others on your team, you can attach files and you can add comments. Most of all, it\u2019s housed in a central location for quick and easy access. I wrote an article about a great online to-do list tool.\nKeep your notes electronically\nIt\u2019s easy to grab the nearest piece of paper on your desk and jot down a note. However, unless you have a very neat desk it may take you a minute to find that note once you need to reference back to it. Searching for notes can eat up production time. A good way to improve this system is to begin using an electronic note system. You can create folders and organize your notes, thus enabling you to find what you\u2019re looking for quickly.\nWe should strive to make our office time as productive as we can. Productivity can have a direct effect on our bottom line. As a business owner, it\u2019s important that we strive to be as profitable as possible. So, take some time, at least annually, to review your office systems. You may find that there\u2019s a more efficient way to do your daily office activities and this can have a positive effect on how you do business.",

        "raw_content": "After Rising To Number 2 On comScore, AOL On Network Launches Native Mobile And Tablet Apps\nAOL\u2019s On Network, which is the company\u2019s distribution and syndication network, has steadily grown the number of videos in its library, as well as the number watched each month by viewers. It\u2019s now Number 2 among video properties on comScore\u2019s Video Metrix, and is now making its video library available on more devices. The network is rolling out new native mobile and tablet apps for iOS and Android devices.\nThe AOL On Network apps let users check out featured content or browse videos based on categories, such as Autos, Business, Entertainment, Food, Health, Home, News, Parenting, Pets, Relationships, Style, Tech, Travel, and Video Games. It also highlights trending topics \u2014 such as the U.S. Presidential Election, which is hot now. There\u2019s also a search bar, allowing users to search for specific videos or topics, as well as the ability to navigate by content producer.\nUsers will be able to favorite videos and save them for later, while also sharing on social networks like Twitter and Facebook. The iOS versions of the app are also AirPlay-enabled, allowing users to stream videos to the biggest screen in the living room through an Apple TV.\nThe network\u2019s library is made up of content from AOL\u2019s own media properties, including Engadget, TechCrunch, HuffPost Live, and Moviefone, as well as some major content partners, including Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia, Travel Channel, and E!, among others. Thanks to increased production by both, the AOL On Network now has more than 420,000 videos that can be accessed through various AOL sites online, as well as through the new mobile apps that it\u2019s rolling out.\nWith so many videos available through a number of distribution channels, AOL On Network has been able to aggressively add viewership over the past year. As VideoNuze pointed out last month, AOL is now second in videos served behind YouTube. Granted, it\u2019s way behind YouTube, but AOL has grown at a pretty aggressive clip, from 408 million videos delivered in September 2011 to 725 million in August of this year \u2014 a 78 percent jump.\nIt\u2019s not just about having a massive number of views each month \u2014 AOL On Network is also leading in a number of key vertical for advertisers. According to AOL On Network SVP Ran Harnevo, it\u2019s #1 in a number of video categories, such as Auto, Business, Style, Home, Health, Travel, Technology, and Food. That advertising piece is key, as media buyers will now be able to buy inventory across all supported AOL On Network platforms, whether videos are served online in a browser or in a native mobile app.",

        "raw_content": "Flipboard Adds 3 Million Users Since Launch Of Personalized Magazines, Over 500,000 Magazines Created To Date\nMobile magazine Flipboard revealed today that over half a million personalized magazines have been created on its platform since the launch of the new feature just two weeks prior. During this time, the company also added 3 million new users to its service, bringing its total user base to now 53 million.\nIn late March, the startup introduced a way for its users to something else besides search, discover, read and share to social networks \u2013 it essentially turned its entire audience into magazine editors. With a \u201cflip it\u201d option now accompanying every story from Flipboard\u2019s collection of content from publishers around the world, anyone is able to now create personalized, topical magazines which other readers can subscribe to directly in the iOS or Android application.\nFlipboard says that now over 50 percent of its users are reading these personalized \u2018zines daily. Some of these have been created by publishers themselves, with a few of the more popular ones coming from Esquire, Rolling Stone, Martha Stewart Living, National Geographic and others. Meanwhile, magazines created by users are also popular \u2013 TechCrunch contributor MG Siegler\u2019s \u201cReading List\u201d mag, for example, made #3 on the most popular list.\nOne very prolific magazine \u2013 \u201cModern Gentlemen\u2019s Playground \u2013 has already seen 2,495 items added, Flipboard notes. And not surprisingly, BuzzFeed has the most flipped article \u2013 \u201c28 Incredibly Beautiful Places You Won\u2019t Believe Actually Exist.\u201d Which I\u2019m pretty sure everyone on the Internet has now read. (I think I\u2019ve read it three times, it\u2019s like linkbait that never fails!) The articles\u2019s photographic content, of course, speaks to Flipboard readers\u2019 propensity for browsing highly visual photo essays.\nThe sharing patterns in Flipboard are also interesting. Apparently, the magazine is transitioning to become a morning news paper of sorts, with users doing the most reading around 9:00 AM, while magazine creation takes place in the afternoon (1:00 PM) and sharing peaks in the evening (7:00 PM). You can almost see the flow of the content creation to consumption process at work here, starting with reading content, then magazine creators curating the articles for niche readerships, and finally leading to those who spread content further on social networks.\nOh, as for the people making the content in the first place? Um, we just work all the time. You\u2019re welcome.",

This will cause the loss of about 14,000 jobs, many of which are held by Metro Detroiters.\nIn 1908 General Motors was founded in Flint, Michigan. General Motors has since grown to have an estimated worth of 70 billion dollars. Since the founding of General Motors in 1908, they now employ over 180,000 people. Included in this number are many people who call Metro Detroit their home.\nAs announced on November 6, 2018, about 14,000 GM employees will lose their jobs in less than six months. This number does not include the thousands of non-GM employees who work for companies which supply GM. Not only does this layoff affect the thousands of employees who work for or supply GM, but it affects their families and livelihood.\n\u201dI am not nervous or worried but I am concerned for the future,\u201d said junior Lyndi Harmon, whose family member works for GM.\nThis mass number of unemployed workers will not come without baggage. With thousands unemployed, many must soon start to look for another job. The only problem, it is very hard to find thousands of open jobs in Metro Detroit, and in order to employ all workers who had lost their jobs, many must look outside of Metro Detroit, or even Michigan. In the near future, Metro Detroit may experience something new: a move away from the metro Detroit area due to the auto industry.\nA common and very catastrophic problem can arise when a large company or industry must lay off large numbers of people. This will occur over time and in phases. As more people move out of the area, there are less people within the community spending money on local business. As less money is being transferred between people and store fronts, companies simply do not make the same kind of money they are used to in order to run their business. This causes the loss of many jobs around the community, which could soon spiral into a depression.\nEmpty auto assembly plant. GM plans to close five plants this year alone.\n\u201cI don\u2019t know anyone who is personally affected by this, but I don\u2019t want to face the ripple effect,\u201d said sophomore Mitchell Bowery.\nThis is the worst case scenario for this particular layoff, but that doesn\u2019t mean any number of the possibilities will not happen. At a time when Detroit is regaining its reputation in all its glory, this turn of events has everyone looking at the future with uncertainty.",

        "raw_content": "HomeMilitary AviationF-35The U.S. Air Force F-35A is ready for war. More or less.\nAugust 4, 2016 David Cenciotti F-35, Military Aviation 44\nOn Aug. 2, 2016, the F-35A was declared \u201ccombat ready\u201d by Gen. Hawk Carlisle, the commander of Air Combat Command. \u201cA historic and monumental day for the program\u201d according to Lockheed Martin; just an \u201cInitial\u201d capability, according to many others.\nAbout 15 years after Lockheed Martin was awarded with a contract to develop the Joint Strike Fighter, currently known as the F-35 Lightning II, the fifth generation stealth plane, has eventually achieved the IOC (Initial Operational Capability) with the U.S. Air Force.\nThe first squadron declared to be operational is the 34th Fighter Squadron based at Hill AFB in Utah that was required to have at least 12 airframes ready for deployment operating as a basic close air support and air interdiction and limited SEAD (Suppression of Enemy Air Defenses) platform.\nAlong with other personnel, maintenance and support requirements the Air Force squadron was also expected to ensure that enough pilots are combat ready, and pass proper examination: as of Jul. 27, 21 pilots and 12 F-35A airframes could be deployed in theater.\nWell, for the moment, one of those featuring low-lethality threats or where the limited, initial capabilities of the F-35 are considered enough to counter the enemy air defenses: although the JSF has improved a lot through the years, slowly solving the long series of issues the program has experienced since the beginning (some of those still being solved), it is still far from being the aircraft advertised in the beginning.\nFor sure, as claimed by the head of the Air Combat Command, General Herbert \u201cHawk\u201d Calisle, its stealth properties, along with the net-centric battlefield capabilities and electronic countermeasures, are the elements which are required in order to face the challenges of the dynamically changing environment of the contemporary battlefield, especially when one considers the enemy weapons systems the F-35 would be required to face.\nFor the type of threat faced by the U.S. combat planes in the current theaters an IOC F-35 could be more than enough to well perform in Afghanistan, Iraq or Syria, but a \u201creal\u201d air war against an enemy who shoots back would require an aircraft with the ability to conduct Anti-Access Offensive Counter Air, full SEAD/DEAD (Destruction of Enemy Air Defenses) missions and something more that the U.S. Air Force Lightning II is simply not ready to perform.\nSo, does this IOC matter? Yes and no.\nSurely, after cost overruns, delays, issues of various types, it marks another achievement for the USAF F-35A but, as widely reported for instance by War Is Boring, the initial IOC requirements have been watered down to meet the deadlines.\nAs Defense News notes, the main concern for the Air Force is the 3F software suite of the jet, facing some instability issues, which is expected to be patched up throughout the year 2017, giving the aircraft a capacity to use new armament such as the SDBs (Small-Diameter Bombs), alongside the interface changes.\nAlso, Lockheed\u2019s Autonomic Logistics Information System, ALIS 2.0.2 \u2013 an update of the logistics/maintenance suite \u2013 is not expected to be ready by the end of October, even though the Hill AFB personnel stated that the ALIS issue was not a \u201climiting factor\u201d.\nSo, in spite of the media hype following the IOC, coherent with the usual PR support that surrounds every F-35 achievement, there is still much room for improvements, development and true operational testing.\nThe F-35 is now going to take a path of operational deployments, in clearly defined stages. First the Red Flags, and then \u2013 inevitably \u2013 the jet is going to become a part of the \u201cTheater Security Packages\u201d sent to Europe and Asia.\nSome claims also emerged that within 18 months Lightning II would be stationed at RAF Lakenheath (but not permanently \u2013 this would happen around 2021, and the jets would rather complement than replace the F-15s stationed there), which would also mean that Mach Loop low-level operations could also be expected within that period, as well as some \u201chop-like\u201d deployments around the continental Europe.\nThe prospects of development assume that Hill AFB is going to become a home for two more operational F-35 squadrons, with a view of Burlington Air National Guard Base in Vermont becoming the second operational base \u2014 and the first Air National Guard base \u2014 to host the F-35.\nBurlington is going to use 18 F-35 airframes replacing its F-16 jets. Next up, 24 F-35 jets would be stationed in Alaska, around 2020 \u2013 at the Eielson Air Force Base in Fairbanks, as Defense News reports, forming an added capability, not replacing any assets stationed in the northernmost US state.\nThree more bases are to be selected soon, with fifth and sixth belonging to the ANG, while the seventh one would be established in one of the bases that currently host F-16s or A-10s: Homestead Air Reserve Base in Florida, Whiteman Air Force Base in Missouri, Davis-Monthan Air Force Base in Arizona or Naval Air Station Joint Reserve Base Fort Worth in Texas.\nSumming up, the much troubled and costly F-35 has grown: probably a bit more than the detractors want you to believe and probably less than both LM, the U.S. armed forces and other operators want you to believe. Hence, there is still much work to do, but we\u2019re probably on a good path.\nWritten with Jacek Siminski\nThe F-35 has hit another snag \u2013 this time because it\u2019s too stealthy\nWatch U.S. Air Force A-10s perform highway landings in Estonia\nAC-27J Gunship Lite\nOctober 23, 2008 David Cenciotti Aviation, Italian Air Force, Military Aviation 0\nIn a previous post (75.000 flight hours for the ItAF C-130J and first C-27J delivered to the US Army) I explained that two C-27J of the 98\u00b0 Gruppo of the 46^ Brigata Aerea of the [\u2026]\nPhoto: An F-35A test aircraft flies over Space Shuttle Endeavour at Edwards Air Force Base\nSeptember 27, 2012 David Cenciotti F-35 7\nOn Sept. 21, the space shuttle Endeavour mounted atop a Boeing 747 SCA (Shuttle Carrier Aircraft), from Edwards Air Force Base to Los Angeles International Airport overflying the most iconic places in the LA area.

        "title": "Echoes. Prisoners dilemma. Published 8/8/2014",
        "raw_content": "Flickr CC Photo / Michael Coghlan\nAmerica Magazine Editorial\nHere is an unsigned editorial titled \"Prisoners dilemma\" from the Aug. 4-11 issue of America, a national Catholic weekly magazine.\nThe evidence is piling up that too many Americans are wasting away in prison. The National Academy of Sciences, for example, recently concluded in a major two-year study that the United States \"has gone past the point where the numbers of people in prison can be justified by the social benefits.\" Other groups, like Human Rights Watch, the Brennan Center for Corrections, Corrections Today and the University of Chicago Crime Lab, have also raised their voices. Pope Francis, in his address to the International Criminal Law Association May 30, called for major reforms of criminal justice systems.\nHere are some basic statistics. Having quadrupled in the past four decades, the prison population in the United States today is 2.2 million, or about one of every 100 adults. This rate far exceeds that of other Western democracies. Maintenance for each prisoner costs taxpayers $30,000 a year. Over half of inmates are locked up for nonviolent offenses. According to \"Nation Behind Bars,\" a recent report by Human Rights Watch, nearly one-third of those serving life sentences do not have the possibility of parole, and more than 40 percent of all federal criminal prosecutions are for immigration offenses. For every 100,000 Americans in each of the following groups, according to the report, there are 478 white males, 3,023 black males, 51 white females and 129 black females in prison.\nToo often the system fails to treat prisoners as human beings; each person has a right to fair trial and punishment and equal protection under the law. President Franklin D. Roosevelt spoke for \"the forgotten man at the bottom of the economic pyramid.\" The forgotten men and women of today are the 2.2 million in prison, committed by a public that too often bases its understanding of prison life on films and television and has been fed tabloid headlines about these \"monsters\" from the moment of their arrests through their trials. The surge in imprisonment began in the late 1960s with President Richard M. Nixon's campaign for \"law and order.\" The accusation of being \"soft on crime\" replaced the \"soft on communism\" of the 1950s and has continued to influence American politics.\nMany people have presumed that a correlation between crowded prisons and a reduced crime rate points to a significant cause-and-effect relationship, but recent research paints a more complex picture, according to a report this year from the National Research Council. The report concludes that the \"magnitude of the reduction\" of crime due to imprisonment is \"highly uncertain\" and \"unlikely to have been large.\"\nThe criminal justice system has changed significantly over the past 40 years. People are doing more time than ever before. Sentences have grown longer thanks to legislatures that want to appear tough on crime, most notably through mandatory minimum sentences and \"three strikes\" laws. States have also farmed out prison management to private contractors who run the institutions for profit. More convicts mean more money for their investors.\nFamilies bear the consequences of incarceration. In the last two decades of the 20th century, the number of children with incarcerated fathers in the United States shot up from 350,000 to 2.1 million. In addition, former inmates have a hard time finding work or housing, and families can crumble as the behavior of children is influenced by the jail time of their parents. New laws must address the new reality.\nDrawing from the Scriptures and the collective experience of the people of God, Pope Francis proposes that prisoners -- through reparation, confession and contrition -- should be able to return to society. Increased penalties, Francis said to the Criminal Law Association, do not solve social problems or reduce crime rates; in fact, they \"may give rise to serious social problems.\" Furthermore, he explained, \"criminality is rooted in economic and social inequality\" and in organized crime that exploits the most vulnerable. \"A society that is governed solely by market laws and creates false expectations and superfluous necessities,\" he said, \"discards those who are not at the top and prevents the slow, the weak or the less gifted from taking an open road in life.\"\nThe reformed prison of the future, aided by public and private high schools and universities, should educate inmates not just with job skills but with the liberal arts, instruments for moral rejuvenation. Sentences must be shorter. There should be alternatives to incarceration for those who suffer from addiction or mental illness. Elderly or ill prisoners who are not likely to re-offend can be released. Prisons must be evaluated on their success or failure in reducing recidivism. Judge Richard A. Posner writes in the New Republic (June 9): \"The worse the treatment meted out to prisoners, the more recidivism there is, and thus the more crime.\" Our country must transform the prison from a trash can where we dump offenders to an instrument for the public good.",

        "raw_content": "Beyond NEC\u2019s 15 per cent for education \u2013 Punch\nThe National Economic Council recently made a crucial decision in its proposal to federal and state governments to allocate 15 per cent of their annual budgets to education in furtherance of a state of emergency declared in that sector. Many stakeholders had before now, advocated this initiative, against the backdrop of the total collapse of the system, from the basic to tertiary levels. In 2018, N605.8 billion was allocated to the sector by the Federal Government, representing seven per cent of the N8.6 trillion budget.\nA special task force or committee will be set up to manage the funds at all levels of government and also oversee infrastructure overhaul in selected schools. The Deputy Governor of Edo State, Philip Shaibu, who elaborated on the proposal, said the primary school level was the focus, just as the entire reform will be anchored on a strategic plan of action already designed by the Federal Ministry of Education. He said, \u201cIf we address basic education and the foundation is well laid at that level, obviously, the problems in the secondary and tertiary education would have been half solved.\u201d\nThe strategic document places emphasis on: out-of-school children; adult literacy and physically challenged; science, technology and mathematics; technical and vocational; teacher education; quality and access to tertiary education; ICT in education and improved library services.\nAcross the 36 states, many primary schools are dilapidated: pupils sit on the bare floor to learn; in the North, especially in Sokoto State, \u201cmore than 50 per cent of the entire teachers in the state cannot read\u201d instructional materials supplied to schools, the then Executive Secretary, Universal Basic Education Commission, Ibrahim Moddibo, said in 2012. In Kaduna State within the same period, 21,780 teachers out of 33,000 failed a primary four pupils test, a shocking revelation that Kwara State also experienced. Added to this incongruous mix is the perennial delay in the payment of teachers\u2019 salaries.\nThe NEC prognosis is right. But this is a minor point at issue, considering that similar attempts in the past were not allowed to work. In fact, the percentage of the budget devoted to education is not as critical as the faulty implementation strategies and monstrous corruption that trammels every national endeavour. In an attempt to make education more functional, the 6-3-3-4 system was introduced, with emphasis on continuous assessment, technical knowledge acquisition and guidance counselling.\nHowever, the country made a total mess of the scheme: teachers for the technical subjects and workshop equipment were not available, just as the transition from Junior Secondary School 3 to Senior Secondary School 1 was automatic for every pupil. Emergency contractors, mostly fronts for the bureaucrats, milked the system. Absurdly, many years after the country inaugurated the system, equipment imported for it was discovered abandoned at the Lagos seaport.\nInterventionist funds like UBEC grants and Tertiary Education Trust Fund have been designed to improve the standard of education. But many state governors divert grants for fixing primary schools to other priority areas or embezzle them outright. It is an abuse of office for which some former governors are being prosecuted by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission. In many cases, they fail to provide their counterpart funding or meet other due process requirements. This is why N86 billion meant for states was idle as of September.\nThe situation is not different at TETFund. Its Executive Secretary, Abdullahi Baffa, in July, visited the EFCC acting-Chairman, Ibrahim Magu, and requested his assistance \u201cto tackle the menace of inappropriate projects, abandoned projects, mismanaged funds, and stolen funds, which are almost grounding the institutions.\u201d Angered by how institutions treat the grants as slush funds, President Muhammadu Buhari did not approve TETFund 2017 interventions. But in 2016, it received N213 billion from which universities, polytechnics and colleges of education were allocated N1 billion, N691.6 million and N679 million, respectively.\nThis is a malodorous landscape that must be cleansed for any serious educational revival to take place. Therefore, giving education priority attention must go beyond official rhetoric. Understanding the fact that education is the bedrock of economic development and the wealth of nations is imperative. Countries in Europe, America and parts of Asia, which have transited from the Industrial Revolution to the Third Revolution \u2013 the digital age, are now embracing the Fourth Revolution \u2013 the age of quantum computing, robotics, artificial intelligence, nanotechnology, autonomous vehicle and 3D printing. They have made the point that investment in productive knowledge makes all the difference. This has brought them enormous wealth and high standard of living.\nNigeria may have been centuries behind, yet, it has to begin the race, which the state of emergency in education symbolises, if successfully executed. Consequently, rather than continue to merely \u201cfund education\u201d without the desired results, it should now \u201cinvest in education.\u201d The quality of education cannot rise above the level of the teachers. This is why training and retraining teachers; their motivation; creating an ideal environment for learning to take place; providing instructional materials and effective school supervision should be areas of special focus. Without functional basic and secondary education, Nigeria\u2019s entire education architecture is a superstructure erected on quicksand.\nIt is for this reason that universities now decry the quality of their intakes. University education in Nigeria has become a huge joke with many misfits serving as administrators and the increasing number of such schools. The base, absurd principle of: \u201clet us establish them first, after which the issue of funding would be addressed,\u201d should stop. With existing funding gaps that provoke the Academic Staff Union of Universities to strike regularly; obsolete libraries and science laboratories, shortage of hostels, lecture halls and the alarming mismatch in the teacher and student ratio, higher institutions of learning in Nigeria should be helped to rediscover their very essence.\nPrevious: Jubilant people of Nkanu East L.G.A of Enugu State, including political leaders, traditional rulers, leaders of thought, academics, market women, youths and various support groups, among others, mobilize massively to the Government House, Enugu on a solidarity visit in support of Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi\u2019s re-election in 2019\u2026\nNext: Election boycott not an option \u2013 Leadership",

        "raw_content": "Review: Much Ado About Nothing, Bard in the Botanics\nPosted by Keira Brown | 20 July 2018 | Reviews, Theatre | 0\nBard in the Botanics, not too far from Shakespeare St, in Glasgow\u2019s West End, offers an interesting alfresco element to Shakespeare\u2019s theatre, which can have its pros and cons. We chose Much Ado About Nothing to view outside the glasshouse in Glasgow\u2019s Botanic Gardens, which had a circus, almost Punch and Judyesque filter on it. It was certainly a popular night, with many showing up with travel chairs and the most lavish of picnics.\nBeing an outside gig, there were a few setbacks, in that this type of performance required a powerful delivery from all cast, which only a handful were able to deliver. The noise of chatter amidst the audience as well as their munching and even the further sound of drums and children not attending the performance could often be heard when sat at the back of the audience. Further to that, we were not offered any stools or chairs to witness the play, which does affect the viewing with the heads of those sat obviously getting in the way. At times I wished we were in an actual theatre.\nHowever, it was nice to be able to take in a performance in the beautiful surroundings that are Glasgow\u2019s well-groomed Botanic Gardens. With some performances I reckon Mr Shakespeare would be turning but we were pleasantly surprised by the acting of Nicole cooper and Adam Donaldson, who seemed like they were well rehearsed and versed in Shakespeare. However, it is clear that this is not the Globe, as we are let down by the acting of a couple and the midges biting.\nAs I mentioned previous Benedick and Beatrice are performing in the world of a Victorian travelling circus, which does not necessarily contribute anything to the play. One of the Shakespearean romantic comedies, I feel that there is not enough hearty laughter and more hearty organic bread during this evening. It\u2019s unfortunate, as this has so much potential. Throw in the chairs, a couple of actors that have more experience of performing alfresco and less midges, and I think we are onto something great.\nFor more on Bard in the Botanics and tickets for the remaining performances, click here\nSummary Throw in the chairs, a couple of actors that have more experience of performing alfresco and less midges, and I think we are onto something great.\nPreviousDick & Dom: We\u2019ve always wanted to do it and this is our fringe debut, 22 years late\nNextJen McGregor: A claustrophobic and unsettling glimpse of characters who do terrible things\nReview: 1984, Fringe 2018\nReview: My Life As A Courgette",

        "title": "The Case Against Richard Glossip is Crumbling \u2013 The Intercept",
        "raw_content": "Photo: Google MapsPhoto: Google Maps\nThe Case Against Richard Glossip Is Crumbling, But He Is Still Scheduled to Die in a Week\nJOSEPH TAPLEY DIDN\u2019T WANT his name in the press. He had worked too hard, since leaving prison in 2002, to get his life on track. Today he owns a business and has a wife and kids. The last thing he wanted when he sat down to watch TV on the evening of September 15 was to get dragged into anything that might bring him or his family any harm.\nBut then he saw the report on the 6 o\u2019clock news: The state of Oklahoma was ready to kill Richard Glossip. Gov. Mary Fallin had rejected his plea for a 60-day stay. His execution was scheduled for 3 p.m. the next day.\nTapley knew the name. More than that, he knew the man responsible for sending Glossip to his death: Tapley\u2019s onetime cellmate Justin Sneed. The two had met at the Oklahoma County Jail in 1997. At the time, neither had reached his 20th birthday. Sneed had been arrested after using a baseball bat to kill a man named Barry Van Treese, the owner of the Best Budget Inn, a seedy motel in Oklahoma City, where he worked as a maintenance man. Sneed would later escape the death penalty after implicating Glossip, his supervisor, testifying that Glossip offered him several thousand dollars to kill on his behalf. Glossip says this was a lie. While he admitted that Sneed had told him he killed Van Treese on the morning of January 7, 1997 \u2014 and that he initially withheld what he knew from police \u2014 Glossip insisted that he had nothing to do with the murder.\nAs he watched the news segment, Tapley felt certain that Sneed had framed Glossip. His story did not match what he remembered Sneed saying about the crime in 1997. Tapley wasn\u2019t alone. In August, after Glossip\u2019s case was featured on Dr. Phil, a man named Michael Scott came forward to say that he had spent time in prison with Sneed, who talked openly about his crime. \u201cAmong all the inmates, it was common knowledge that Justin Sneed lied and sold Richard Glossip up the river,\u201d Scott said. Yet the execution was to proceed as scheduled, on September 16.\nThat night, Tapley Googled \u201cattorney for Richard Glossip\u201d and found a number for Don Knight, a Colorado-based lawyer who is part of the legal team fighting to save Gossip\u2019s life. Tapley dialed and left a message for Knight:\n\u201cThis is Joe. I was in a cell with Justin Sneed in 1997 in Oklahoma County Jail for five or six months. He told me all about his case. I think I might be able to help you.\u201d\nIn fact, it was too late. By the time Knight\u2019s paralegal came into their office the next morning and listened to the message, the preliminary execution protocols were underway. Knight was hundreds of miles from his desk, at the prison in McAlester, Oklahoma, in an area that did not allow cellphones.\nYet just a couple of hours before Glossip was to be strapped to the gurney, the Oklahoma Court of Criminal Appeals suddenly blocked his execution, issuing a temporary stay in order to give \u201cfair consideration\u201d to new evidence presented by Glossip\u2019s lawyers. Later, when he was finally able to check his phone, Knight had 150 emails to read. It was not until the following night that he was able to call Tapley to find out what he knew.\n\u201cIf Mr. Glossip had been killed and I had not done anything, I would have felt terrible for the rest of my life.\u201d\nThis past Sunday, Knight sat down with Tapley in his kitchen. Tapley told him what he remembered from his months with Sneed. In an affidavit signed the next day, Tapley said that Sneed had offered him \u201cvery detailed accounts\u201d about his crime, including how hard it had been to kill Van Treese. \u201cI am sure that Justin Sneed acted alone,\u201d Tapley said. \u201cHe never gave me any indication that someone else was involved. He never mentioned the name of Richard Glossip to me.\u201d If Sneed had, Tapley said, he would \u201cdefinitely\u201d remember it.\nTapley also said that at the time, Sneed \u201cwas very concerned about getting the death penalty. He was very scared of it. The only thing that mattered to him was signing for a life sentence.\u201d\nTo prove that he was telling the truth about his access to Sneed, Tapley provided the number of their shared cell and drew a picture of the jail\u2019s layout. He also showed Knight a Bible he had with him in jail that appeared to bear Sneed\u2019s signature. Photos of both are attached to the affidavit, which was filed with the Court of Criminal Appeals on Monday, September 21.\nTAPLEY\u2019S AFFIDAVIT is just the latest in a growing collection of evidence compiled by Glossip\u2019s attorneys as their client faces his next execution date of September 30. The documents contain some contradictions \u2014 in August, Sneed\u2019s mother told a defense investigator that her son had sent her a letter from the Oklahoma County Jail, where he was housed with Tapley, saying that others besides himself had been involved in the murder \u2014 \u201cpowerful and important people,\u201d in her recollection. But even such inconsistencies point away from the state\u2019s version of events, in which Sneed acted under Glossip\u2019s sole control. And the latest affidavit from Tapley is consistent with the earlier affidavit of a former drug dealer who used to do business at the Best Budget Inn \u2014 and who said that, contrary to his claims in court, Sneed was in the grip of a severe meth addiction and would often steal in order to sustain it. \u201cJustin Sneed had the twitches of a person who uses methamphetamine,\u201d Tapley said. \u201cHe was \u2018tweaking\u2019 while he was in jail.\u201d\nAlso among the most recent affidavits is the analysis of forensics experts who say that the trial testimony of the medical examiner, Dr. Chai Choi, was fatally flawed. At trial, Dr. Choi testified that Van Treese slowly bled to death over as many as eight hours. But upon examining the original autopsy report, investigative reporter Phil Cross of Oklahoma City station Fox 25 discovered \u201csignificant discrepancies\u201d between the document and Dr. Choi\u2019s testimony. There was \u201cno mention of blood loss\u201c in the autopsy report, Cross reported earlier this month. This was significant: Multiple jurors told Cross that their decision in Glossip\u2019s case was partly motivated by the fact that Glossip might have been able to save Van Treese\u2019s life if he had gone to police as soon as he caught wind of Sneed\u2019s actions. But according to an affidavit from forensic pathologist Michael M. Baden, it would have been too late: Van Treese was dead \u201cwithin minutes\u201d of being struck on the head with the baseball bat. \u201cMore rapid medical attention would not have changed the outcome.\u201d\nWith his client\u2019s new execution date one week away, Knight believes there is a \u201ctreasure trove\u201d of people like Tapley and Scott who could prove Glossip\u2019s innocence. But finding them \u2014 and convincing them to come forward \u2014 has been difficult. This is not particularly surprising: For those who have left prison, it would mean thrusting one\u2019s criminal past into the public eye, as Michael Scott learned last weekend, when The Oklahoman ran a news story questioning his credibility. The article, which was based on a 2005 Department of Corrections document, included Scott\u2019s old mug shot and detailed his limited education, the many illegal drugs he had used at 18, and the fact that he admitted to having lied many times in the past.\nTo Knight, the leaking of the 10-year-old record in Scott\u2019s case was retaliatory \u2014 a clear attempt at intimidating anyone else who might come forward. \u201cIf that\u2019s what the state can do to people who are out,\u201d he told The Intercept, \u201cimagine what they can do to people who are in.\u201d Indeed, according to Knight and his colleagues, a number of people currently imprisoned with Sneed at Joseph Harp Correctional Facility have declined to speak, not because they deny knowing anything, but out of concern that they would lose their placement at the medium security prison and be sent somewhere worse.\nFor his part, Tapley makes it clear in his affidavit that he never wanted to come forward. He had hoped someone else might act first. \u201cI had been thinking of calling with this information for a month or so before the execution,\u201d he said, \u201cbut I always thought someone would stop it.\u201d But ultimately, it was his wife \u2014 and his conscience \u2014 that moved him to act. \u201cIf Mr. Glossip had been killed and I had not done anything, I would have felt terrible for the rest of my life,\u201d he said.\nThere are good reasons to take any kind of jailhouse testimony with a grain of salt. But there is also an irony in questioning the credibility of people like Tapley or Scott while defending Glossip\u2019s conviction, as the editorial boards of both The Oklahoman and the Tulsa World have done. After all, if we have to dismiss the claims of former felons with very little to gain \u2014 and much to lose \u2014 by speaking out on Glossip\u2019s behalf, how can anyone defend a death sentence based solely on the word of an admitted killer with the ultimate incentive to lie?\nWhether Tapley\u2019s decision to break his silence will make a difference remains an open question. But one thing is certain: Had the execution gone forward last week, \u201cit would have been too late,\u201d said Knight. Glossip would be dead by now. \u201cAnd this information would never have come out at all.\u201d\nAdditional reporting: Jordan Smith\nTop photo: 2007 Google Maps image of the Budget Inn on Council Road in Oklahoma City, where Barry Van Treese was murdered.",

        "title": "Non-Review Review: About Time | the m0vie blog",
        "raw_content": "That\u2019s a little harsh. About Time is mostly quite solid. It is also, at times, almost brilliant. The central concept is quite ingenious \u2013 the suggestion that the male members of a particular family can travel back through their own history, giving them a chance to right what once went wrong, at least on a personal scale.Curtis shrewdly avoids getting bogged down in mechanics or quantum physics or paradoxes. He introduces the concept to the audience, adds a few rules, and then just runs with the concept.\nTo be fair, it\u2019s best not to think about the ethical implications of using the ability to get a \u201cdo-over\u201d with the object of your affection who remains blissfully unaware of your secret. When our protagonist\u2019s father imparts this sacred secret to Tim, he makes it clear that time-travelling is \u2013 as a rule \u2013 a \u201cno girls allowed\u201d affair. Neither Tim\u2019s mother nor his sister (nor, eventually, the love of his life) know about Tim\u2019s unique gift.\nSo there should probably be something seedy about manipulating your lover\u2019s life without their awareness, sabotaging a relationship that they will now never have. About Time never feels as creepy as the other Rachel McAdams time-travel romance The Time-Traveller\u2019s Wife, where a time-traveller effectively grooms his future wife by appearing throughout her life. Part of that is down to Curtis\u2019 script which (mostly) avoids these sorts of creepy undertones, but also down to the charm of Domhnall Gleeson.\nGleeson does a surprisingly convincing impersonation of a younger ginger Hugh Grant. I mean no disrespect in making the comparison \u2013 his accent is flawless, his stutter convincing, his insecurity palpable. After all, like Woody Allen, you get a sense that there\u2019s really only one base Richard Curtis protagonist. Gleeson has opted to play the role in a style that has worked very well before, and his charm largely carries the movie. Gleeson deserves a higher profile than he has enjoyed to date, and his work here proves he makes a convincing romantic lead.\nNot to get too bogged down on the whole time-travel thing, since \u2013 despite the title \u2013 that\u2019s not really what About Time is about. It\u2019s a very clever, very shrewd narrative device, one that Curtis uses quite well \u2013 if a little too heavily. However, the rules of time-travel in About Time seem a bit\u2026 arbitrary. We\u2019re introduced to a pivotal one at about the half-way point, but after it\u2019s already been broken. However, the movie seems to allow our hero a chance to \u201creset\u201d his mistake. It\u2019s never too clear how or why that happened, and thinking about it too much invites all sorts of logical problems. (In a time-travel movie! Never!)\nMore than that, though, the film explicitly cheats. When those rules aren\u2019t convenient to generate dramatic angst, and when breaking them will allow a play for coy sentimentality, Curtis could seem to care less. At one big emotional moment, two character break the rule together, with the only acknowledgement being that they have to be very careful. It feels just a little bit contrived, a little too convenient.\nStill, there\u2019s a whimsical charm to About Time that works remarkably well \u2013 benefiting from Curtis\u2019 decision to frame the story as a romantic comedy and pushing the time-travel element firmly to the background. While Curtis occasionally pushes the film in overly sentimental territory, most of the movie is endearingly earnest, feeling genuine in the way that it explores the main character\u2019s personal explorations.\nAbout Time is a well-constructed romantic dramedy, one with enough heart to make up for some considerable flaws. Curtis occasionally over-eggs the pudding, but it helps that he\u2019s working with a solid leading performer and some great ideas.\nFiled under: Non-Review Reviews | Tagged: About Time, arts, bill nighy, Curtis, Domhnall Gleeson, Four Weddings and a Funeral, Hugh Grant, Love Actually, rachel mcadams, richard curtis, time travel, Woody Allen |\n\u00ab Star Trek: Deep Space Nine \u2013 Babel (Review) Watch!

Photo credit: Franky Renteria\nThe Chico State men\u2019s basketball team recorded their first win of the season against Biola University in the California Collegiate Athletic Association/Pac West Challenge.\nThe \u2018Cats have had a rough week and a half. After losing to Division I opponents, Stanford and the University of Arizona, in exhibition games, they surprisingly lost to Concordia University to drop their first Division II game of the season.\nHowever, Chico State rebounded in a big way. After allowing 82 points in their first game, they only allowed 58 points in this one. The team was able to force Biola into ten turnovers in the first half, and they turned it into 18 points.\nSenior point guard Jalen Mcferren led the team in points with 17, and also had 4 steals in the victory. His backcourt mate, senior guard Corey Silverstrom, had 15 points.\nThe front court also played well, with senior forward Isaiah Ellis scoring 13 points and bringing down five rebounds, and the team\u2019s new starting center, Justin Briggs, scoring 15.\nChico State\u2019s also got some production from their bench, which they will need if they plan to play to their potential each and every game. The starters can only do so much, and the reserves need to match their level of energy. Freshman point guard Isaiah Brooks had eight points and only one turnover, and junior forward Marvin Timothy had six points in only eight minutes of action.\nThe \u2018Cats look to be back on track after a surprising loss, and look to be one of the top teams in Division II this season. The team will be playing their first league game of the season against Humboldt State on Nov. 18 in Arcata, CA. The game will be televised on ESPN 3.\nWildcats plan to tap into their potential",

The sea depth at the North Pole has been measured at 4,261 metres (13,980 ft). The nearest land is usually said to be Kaffeklubben Island, off the northern coast of Greenland about 440 miles (c. 700 km) away. The north pole is often credited as having snow but it is factually snowless.\nThe sea ice at the North Pole is typically around two or three meters thick, though there is considerable variation and occasionally the movement of floes exposes clear water. Studies have suggested that the average ice thickness has decreased in recent years due to global warming.\nThe Arctic ice cap is a shifting pack of sea ice some 6.5 to 10 feet i.e. 2 to 3 meters thick \u2013 floating above the 13,000-foot-deep (4,000-meter-deep) Arctic Ocean. During the winter the Arctic ice pack grows to the size of the United States. In the summer half of the ice disappears.\nAuthor adminPosted on January 13, 2008 June 27, 2008 Categories Natural worldTags arctic ice cap, arctic ice pack, arctic ocean, clear water, global warming, greenland, north pole, sea ice, size of the united states, summer half, water studies",

Perfect for all kinds and sizes of room, the AirMax is the top performing model for efficient heat distribution.\nProven and tested to help save you as much as 18% of you fuel, this model requires no batteries or electricity. Instead it converts the stove\u2019s own heat into electricity to generate power. Tested during harsh conditions, this model offers outstanding performance and this is backed up by a two-year manufacturer\u2019s warranty for your peace of mind.\nWood stove fans on top of stoves take less space but circulate more warm air more deeply into the home, making you more comfortable more quickly. The perfect eco-friendly option to reduce your carbon footprint, the ECOFAN AirMax is self-regulating for greater convenience and is also whisper quiet so you won\u2019t be disturbed.\nCapable of moving as much as 175 CFM, this large model comes in a choice of colors to suit your preferences and with its low minimum-operation temperature, you can rest assured that it will operate for the longest time when compared to rival models.\nBottom Line: The one we'd choose over all others. It can be considered expensive when compared to the competition but in terms of fuel efficiency and heating time it will save more money in the long term.\nWhen it comes to wood stove fans, non-electric models are certainly the most economical since there is no need to pay any more on your energy bills to keep them running. The CWLAKON heat-powered fan requires no external power source to circulate warm air and it is highly effective at helping the heated air from a pellet or wood-burning fire to get around the space evenly.\nThis model is self-powered thanks to the thermoelectric module which functions as a mini-generator powering the motor. With no need for electricity or batteries, it still manages to boost the circulation of warm air for better comfort and lower wood consumption, saving you money in the long run while also reducing your carbon footprint helping you to meet your eco-friendliness goals.\nWhen you choose this heat powered stove fan, you can be confident that you are selecting a very safe design. It is made from high quality anodized aluminum which can resist temperatures as high as 662 degrees Fahrenheit, there will be no discoloration or deformation even when operating the fan and stove for extended periods and at high temperatures. This ensures a long lifespan at maximum efficiency.\nIf you are looking for heat activated fans that operate extremely quietly, the CWLAKON could be right for you. Thanks to its newly designed blade and its larger air volume, you can expect operation to be whisper quiet. You\u2019ll never notice it but it\u2019ll still be working perfectly in silence.\nThanks to the bi-metallic safety device located in the device\u2019s base this is a very durable and long-lasting device. Whenever the surface temperature exceeds approximately 400 degrees Fahrenheit, the safety device will gently elevate the fan\u2019s front, thus protecting the motor and TEG. The bi-metallic strip below the base of the device automatically bends once the temperature has risen too high and this ensures that no damage from overheating can occur.\nAs one additional positive feature, the built-in thermometer features an oversized magnet which won\u2019t fall off the chimney even at a high temperature. With bright coloration, it can also be used to observe the furnace temperature at any time.\nBottom Line: Excellent value for money. The cheapest model on the list and a good choice for smaller homes.\nRecommended Article: Learn all about the top cheap pellet stoves in our latest guide.\nWhen using a standard wood stove, the heat rises vertically, however when you use the Voda 4 blade non-electric wood stove fan the warm air will be diverted horizontally, warming the entire room rather than just the ceiling and areas next to the stove.\nWith no need for cords, electricity or batteries, this fan for a wood-burning stove is capable of generating power itself using the surface heat of the stove. The device\u2019s base can transmit the heat into electricity generating units which then convert the energy produced by the heat into kinetic energy which drives the motor and makes the blades turn.\nOnce the stove\u2019s temperature has reached 185 degrees Fahrenheit, the blades begin to spin and as the base gets hotter, the blades will turn more rapidly. This model is perfect for use on a freestanding stove that has an average surface temperature measuring between 185- and 660-degrees Fahrenheit.\nIf you\u2019re looking for a model which is simple to install and which operates quietly, the Voda is perfect for you. Its silent operation means you won\u2019t be disturbed while its anodized aluminum blades and base won\u2019t corrode or rust for excellent longevity and durability. This fan for a wood stove top simply needs to be positioned close to the back or side of the stove pipe.\nBottom Line: Offers excellent value for money. Not as refined or as efficient as either of the Canadian built ECOFAN models but a stand out in its price bracket.\nThis ECOFAN model warms your room as much as 31% more rapidly than many of its similarly sized rivals and its mid-size design makes it perfect for rooms measuring up to 240 square feet. Proven and tested to save you as much as 14% of your fuel, the UltrAir ensures efficient heat distribution deeper into your home.\nThe ECOFAN UltrAir requires no electricity but instead generates its own power through converting your wood stove\u2019s own heat into electricity. Since it has been designed and built in Canada, you can have peace of mind in the quality of its performance.\nDesigned for use with free-standing wood stoves, the ECOFAN is a unique accessory which operates extremely quietly but which nevertheless can move as much as 125 CFM. Available in a choice of three different colors it can operate at a stove surface temperature of 212\u2013650-degrees Fahrenheit.\nBottom Line: It's well built and runs very efficiently. A worthy alternative to the AirMax model.\nSo, do you really need a stove fan? There is no single answer to that question, however if you\u2019re wondering whether or not you could benefit from one, there\u2019s only one thing to consider. Does your home feel warm and comfortable even on the coldest days? If not, you could benefit from a model which will ensure that the heat from your wood stove circulates more effectively around your home.\nAlthough there are lots of different models on the market today, they aren\u2019t all equally high performing or well made. Some are poor quality and are made from inferior materials which could discolor or become damaged after ongoing exposure to high temperatures. You need to ensure that you have selected a model which can withstand extreme temperatures without any problems.\nYou also need to take care to choose a model which has been tested and proven to effectively circulate air around your room rather than allowing it to go upwards and be lost at the ceiling. You should also check that your chosen fan operates quietly so that it won\u2019t disturb you during use.\nThanks to our expert product reviews, you should now be able to make a well-informed decision when it comes to selecting the right device to suit your needs.

With its strong anodized aluminum construction and choice of three attractive colors, this well-designed and durably constructed stove fan will ensure that your home is well heated and that your energy bills feel the benefit.\nIf you have a wood stove and are wondering whether a heat powered fan would be a good addition to your home, there are probably quite a lot of questions that you need answered.\nHow do they work? What should you look for when choosing a stove fan? What else do you need to know about using a fan to heat your home more effectively? We address all of these issues so that you can make the right decisions for you.\nIf you're a first time buyer then don't miss this section before reading our heat powered wood stove fan reviews.\nRecommended Reading: Don't miss our guide to the top performing small wood stoves!\nThe very first question that most people ask about these devices is whether or not they need one in the first place. If you have already spent money on an expensive wood stove, you might be wondering why on Earth you should spend even more on buying a fan to sit on its surface. Yet there are several reasons why you should seriously consider making the investment.\nA wood-burning stove does get very hot, that much is true. However, if you have anything larger than a very small living space you probably find that on the coldest days the heat doesn\u2019t distribute itself well around the room. If you\u2019re hoping to heat other rooms as well, you will be out of luck.\nUnless you\u2019re happy to sit right in front of the wood-burning stove, you might want to think about finding a way to distribute all that warmth more effectively around the room. A stove fan sits on top of the stove and prevents the heated air from escaping upwards and being lost, instead channelling it through the room so that you can stay cozy and warm no matter where you choose to sit.\nA stove top fan generates electricity for itself, so there isn\u2019t any need for a battery or a power outlet. This means that you won\u2019t need to spend any more money on your energy bills. A non-electric stove fan will begin to work once your stove has reached a set temperature and will then self-regulate effectively, working faster to channel the heat around the room when it is most needed.\nEven better, the best wood stove fans operate completely silently, so they won\u2019t be noticed as you enjoy spending time in your comfortable, warm room.\nIf you\u2019re wondering just how a stove fan can work without any need for batteries or electricity, this will help to explain just how these clever appliances function.\nThey use thermoelectricity to distribute heat about your room. The stove\u2019s fan features a mini-motor inside it, which has two semi-conductors.\nWhen they are both at different temperatures, a small amount of electric power can be generated.\nWhen the base heats up and the fan\u2019s top remains cooler, the heat differential drives the motor. In turn, this will rotate the blades. On the top of the device, there is a cooling system which keeps the top cooler than its base so that the blades continue spinning.\nIn theory, they function on any type of wood-burning stove that gets hot enough on its top. There must, however, be sufficient space at the side or rear of the stove to enable optimal air flow and to ensure that the stove can reach the minimum temperature to activate the fan.\nThere are some stove fans on the market which are designed to be activated at a lower temperature. These are perfect for small wood stoves which are unable to reach very high temperatures. These models are ideal for helping to disperse heat more effectively even when your stove is unable to reach the high temperatures required for a conventional fan to function.\nAlthough you might think that it\u2019s possible to position a stove fan anywhere on the top of your wood-burning stove, you need to think carefully about where you place it. You will need to put it on the stove top itself so the bottom will react to the heat of the stove to commence the thermoelectric process.\nThe best place to position it is towards the rear of the stove without blocking the back with the wall or the stove\u2019s flue. If you place it towards the side of the flue, with approximately 150 to 200mm at the rear, the stove fan will be able to receive sufficient cool air to function at its optimal level.\nAlthough the best stove fans are able to withstand very high temperatures it is still possible for them to overheat and become damaged.\nIn some cases, these devices may actually cause the room to heat up too much and cause you to feel uncomfortable in your living space. If this happens, you can simply remove it from the stove top for some time until the room has cooled down a little.\nAlso, a stove fan can become so hot that it burns out. Every model comes with its own maximum operating temperature. If you exceed this, the motor could be burned out or the device could be damaged. You can prevent this from happening by either removing it from the stove completely or moving it onto a cooler part of the stove.\nThere are also stove thermometers available for sale which you can use to monitor your stove\u2019s temperature. Once you are familiar with your stove and its fan, you will get a better idea of its temperature during use.\nThese devices are especially useful for freestanding stoves which are in enclosed spaces such as a traditional open fireplace. In these types of spaces, the heat cannot properly disperse around the space and therefore a fan is highly beneficial to maximize the heat.\nIt couldn\u2019t be easier to use your fan. All you need to do is place it in the correct position on the top of the stove and wait until its temperature has reached the required minimum. The fan will start to spin and the fan will then regulate itself so that the heat maintains an optimal level for as long as you want the stove to stay in operation.\nInstalling it couldn\u2019t be simpler. All you have to do is place it close to the back of your wood stove but with sufficient space remaining at the rear of the fan. Make sure that the base of the fan is in contact with the wood stove itself, then light your stove, wait until it has reached the right temperature and your work is done.\nYou don\u2019t have to feel that you need to use your stove fan every time you want to use your wood-burning stove to heat your room. If you are already sitting close to the stove and are getting a comfortable amount of warmth, you won\u2019t need to think about using the fan. However, if you are sitting else where in the space or want to heat another part of your home more effectively, you could benefit from bringing the stove fan into use.\nYou will also find it very useful if you have a larger room and there are several people sitting in it. With the stove fan in use, you\u2019ll find that everyone in the room can enjoy a better level of heat and comfort and not only the people who are lucky enough to have secured a spot close to the stove itself!\nNow that you know more about how to choose a wood-burning stove fan, you can make a more informed purchasing decision. The right model will make an enormous difference to the comfort level of your living spaces and will help you to enjoy your leisure time at home more than ever before.\nWhen you choose a well-made, high-quality model which has been designed to stand the test of time and to withstand high temperatures, you will be able to reap all the benefits of a cozy home without having to increase your carbon footprint or add extra cost to your home\u2019s energy bills.

        "raw_content": "Who Is the TSRC and What Do They Do?\nZach Gantt, RRT - TSRC President\nCurrently as President my focus is on expanding our footprint and brand as a state society. What I mean by that is really getting the word out. The first step to branding is answering the simple questions of who we are and what we do. The TSRC as well as the AARC have so much to offer you as a professional and you as a clinician.\nWho we are: The TSRC is a chartered affiliate of the American Association for Respiratory Care (AARC) and simply put we are the state trade association for respiratory care. The TSRC is segmented into seven chapters across the state with a chapter president and chapter president elect for each one. The TSRC Board of Directors (BOD) is made up of all volunteers, many of us are department heads, business owners, supervisors, marketing or sales professionals, clinical coordinators and clinical educators. The chapter presidents and president elects make up part of the board and the executive committee or state officers make up the other part of the BOD. We also have various committees to spearhead specific areas like government affairs, fundraising, programs (organizing the state conference) and standards of care, One thing we all have in common is we love our profession and we are willing to put in some time and effort to ensure it is being protected and is advancing as fast as possible.\nWhat we do: Our focus is on 3 primary areas\nEducation \u2013 we offer a wide variety of conferences to respiratory therapists in TN through our state meeting (http://77.104.162.109/~tntsrc25/events/tsrc-2015-state-meeting/) as well around 15-20 regional meetings per year. These events are what funds the activities of the society and are a very important part of allowing us to do what we do.\nAdvocacy & Awareness \u2013 We employ a lobbyist to make sure we don\u2019t miss any important issues pertaining to Respiratory Care and to ensure we have a voice in those very same issues as they arise. The TSRC gets involved with the Respiratory Care licensing board as well as others, when issues like sleep licensure as it pertained to Respiratory Therapists, PICC line insertion by RT\u2019s, or EMS ventilator transport training curriculum.\nNetworking \u2013 As professionals in any business, organization, industry or profession, networking is crucial for personal and professional success. I credit much of my success in the respiratory profession to the fact that I became a member of the Board of Directors for the TSRC just a few months after graduating Respiratory School. This allowed me to meet other board members (who were mostly directors or managers), to meet with vendors, meet local and national speakers, I learned how to run a professional meeting and I learned the importance of speaking up to fight for what you believe in, even if the odds are stacked against you. If you have heard the old saying \u201cIts not what you know but who you know\u201d that definitely stands true in healthcare.\nThere are many ways to get involved with the TSRC, you can run for a local position as president elect for the chapter you live in, which is a good starting point to join the BOD. If you want to start small, simply contact your chapter president and offer up some help to spread the word about events or to help plan or work at the regional conference. If you would like to help on a state level we need more resources all the time and can use help on various committees and projects across the state.\nCurrently we are seeking volunteers to help with our newly formed Social Media Committee to help grow our contacts list on social media and engage the respiratory therapists in TN to get more involved with our profession.\nIf you are interested in getting more involved, feel free to contact me directly via phone or email.\nZach Gantt, RRT\nHealthcare Education Systems, LLC & AireMED, LLC\nwww.healthedusystems.com\nTN Society for Respiratory Care",

        "raw_content": "Tony's Toys | Custom Side by Side FabricationsCustom A-Arms\nThe suspension control arm, also known as an A-arm\nis a hinged suspension link between the chassis and the suspension upright or hub that carries the wheel. Many factors come into play when replacing them, such as how you drive it etc. Tony's Toys has most everything you need for customizing the suspension on your side by side.\nThe inboard (chassis) at the end of a-arm is attached by a single pivot, usually a rubber bushing. It can thus control the position of the outboard end in only a single degree of freedom, maintaining the radial distance from the inboard mount. Although not deliberately free to move, the single bushing does not control the arm from moving back and forth; this motion is constrained by a separate link or radius rod.\nThis is in contrast to the wishbone. Wishbones are triangular and have two widely spaced inboard bearings. These constrain the outboard end of the wishbone from moving back and forth, controlling two degrees of freedom, and without requiring additional links.\nMost A-Arms form the lower link of a suspension. A few designs use them as the upper link, usually with a lower wishbone. The additional radius rod is then attached to the upper arm.\nOur Fabrication shop can fabricate A-Arms for all makes and models\nMade from 100% Family Pride In Athens, Tennessee\nCamber adjustable, Caster adjustable to match your riding style, toe-in adjustable\nBushings are included\nFittings included making it easy to grease the bushings\nStock steel bushings\nTie rods are made of stainless steel\nPowder coat available in many colors\nUpper and Lower ball joints are included - NO spindle reaming required!\nBest warranty Anywhere.

        "raw_content": "Minesweeper tactics\nMarch 5, 2009 in Uncategorized | by Todd Trimble | 26 comments\nThis being a mathematics blog, I\u2019m sure a lot of readers out like to play Minesweeper. I\u2019ve just obtained a personal best today (94 seconds on expert level) which, as Minesweeper buffs know, is nowhere close to world-class levels, but which made me happy anyway, as I\u2019d never broken into the double digits before today!\nIt seems to me that world-class competitors must know some tricks with the mouse which I\u2019ve never bothered to master, particularly because my laptop doesn\u2019t have a mouse but rather a touchpad. This being the case, I keep my right index finger on the touchpad to guide the cursor, and the left index finger to click. I always left-click: that is, in my style of play, I [practically] never flag squares for bombs; I click only on non-bomb squares. For it\u2019s well-known, or at least it should be, that the program doesn\u2019t care if you identify where the bombs are \u2014 you get full credit for only identifying all the numbered squares.\nTo play in this style well, one needs to be fluent in a number of tactical tricks, which I don\u2019t have good names for, but which in my personal argot I call things like \u201c1-2-1\u201d, \u201c1-2-2-1\u201d, \u201crule of three\u201d, to name just a few. But that\u2019s not what I set out to discuss, really. What I\u2019d really like to hear from good players is: what opening strategies do you use?\nThe personal best I just set came after deciding on a new opening strategy. What I had been doing is clicking along border squares. Under that strategy, one could of course just keep clicking until one opens up an area, but often I would add to that the observation that if one clicked on a 1, thus leading to, e.g.,\nx 1 x (\u2013> border row)\nthen one could then click on the non-border square just adjacent to the 1, with only a 1 in 5 chance of setting off a bomb. If one then hits another 1:\nthen one can immediately open up the line of squares on the third rank, leading to a configuration such as\nor better. This is often a cheap and quick way of opening up squares or otherwise getting a tactical toehold.\nThe new strategy I began using today is not to click along the border, but to click along the ranks or files adjacent to the border. Under this strategy, if one lands on a 1, leading to\nx x x (\u2013> border row)\nthen one can click on the border square adjacent to the 1, with only a 1 in 8 chance of setting off a bomb. If one does not set off a bomb, that square has to be a 1:\nand then one can proceed as before. So I\u2019ve just lowered my odds of hitting a bomb, plus a very small fractional gain in processing time that comes with the certain knowledge that it\u2019s a 1 if not a bomb. So far the strategy has paid off well!\nI\u2019d like to hear other people\u2019s opening strategies, and also I\u2019d like to know some statistics. For example, considered over the space of expert-level games, what is the probability of getting a 1, a 2, and so on? Does anyone know? (It seems this would be very difficult computing analytically \u2014 one is probably better off using a Monte Carlo simulation. But I don\u2019t have the wherewithal to set that kind of thing up.)\nHappy Co-Valentine\u2019s Day!\nFebruary 14, 2009 in Uncategorized | Tags: arrows, love, Valentine's day | by Vishal | 4 comments\nLove is like PI \u2013 natural, irrational and very important!\n\u2013 Lisa Hoffman\nHappy Co-Valentine's Day\nValentine\u2019s Day is usually associated with romantic love, but I think such an idea although wonderful is somewhat restrictive. This time of the year, I believe, is also about letting people close and dear to you know how much you love and care about them! Keeping that in mind, I wish my parents a Happy Valentine\u2019s Day and hope that my younger brother, Vishant, has a great Valentine\u2019s Day too!\nI also sincerely hope that Todd gets to spend a great Valentine weekend with his wife and family! And, here\u2019s hoping that all our readers and my friends (including Aditya, Pawan and Kenji!) will today not hesitate in expressing their love to their near and dear ones.\nAnd very importantly, here\u2019s wishing Carolyn an unforgettable Valentine\u2019s Day! Thanks for being my Valentine even though you are thousands of miles away!!\n[I do hope Todd will forgive me for posting something completely non-mathematical. In my defense, this post has at least a reference to PI and category theory! \ud83d\ude42 ]\nLink to 43rd Carnival of Mathematics\nNovember 11, 2008 in Uncategorized | Tags: carnival of mathematics, number therory | by Vishal | 2 comments\nI would like to quickly point out to our readers that Jason Dyer is currently hosting the 43rd Carnival of Mathematics and that the Carnival lists Todd\u2019s POW-11 (Preserving Sums of Squares) post as one of its entries!\nAn integration question\nOctober 21, 2008 in Uncategorized | Tags: elementary function, integration | by Todd Trimble | 9 comments\nA reader brought up essentially this question: does anyone happen to know a proof that does not possess an elementary antiderivative?

So, for those who haven\u2019t been following the news in chess closely I would like to bring their kind attention to the current World Chess Championship (2008) match (Bonn, Germany) between two supreme chess grandmasters, Vishwanathan Anand (India) and Vladimir Kramnik (Russia). Technically, Anand (pronounced Aa-nand and not A-naand; well, actually it is more like Aa-nundh) is the current world chess champion, but personally I think that his winning the World Chess Championship Mexico (2007) last year was a somewhat \u201cunsatisfactory\u201d accomplishment, if you will, given that he won the crown by winning a tournament and not a \u201cclassical\u201d chess match. I fervently believe that a person should be crowned world chess champion (like Fischer, Kasparov, Capablanca, Kramnik, to name a few) only after he or she has won a \u201cproper\u201d world championship match played under \u201cclassical time controls\u201d (remember the Fischer-Spassky match in 1972 and the Kasparov-Kramnik match in 2000?) Without that, the gravitas of the chess crown is somewhat diminished.\nSo, here is Anand\u2019s chance now to silence his critics, of which there are very few really, once and for all that he is indeed the undisputed world chess champion! And judging by the result of the third game, which he just won in a dramatic fashion (woohoo!), as well as the tremendous amount of home preparation it clearly seems he has done, there is no doubt that he is on a steady path to the crown. In all the first three games, Anand has demonstrated thus far that he is the superior player. Of course, there are nine more games left and the bets are not off by any means. After all, it was Kramnik who beat Kasparov convincingly in 2000 to win the crown.\nFor analyses of the first two games, click here and here.\nOk, so here is a poll that I invite our readers to participate in. (Obviously, if you choose the \u201cwrong\u201d answer, all your future comments on this blog will be deleted! So, think hard before you vote.)\nFirefox 3.0 is now ready!\nJune 17, 2008 in Uncategorized | Tags: Firefox 3.0 | by Vishal | 1 comment\nDon\u2019t forget to download Firefox 3.0 today!\nTime for another Republican President\u2026 again?\nJune 3, 2008 in Uncategorized | Tags: democratic party, hillary clinton, US politics | by Vishal | 18 comments\nUpdate: Look for the \u2018sexism\u2019 video at the end of this post that essentially strengthens my argument about the media treatment meted out to a woman, who was/is as capable as any other candidate, running for a very high office in America, the world\u2019s oldest democracy and whose founding fathers, as we learn from history, were the children of The Enlightenment!\nWith the Democratic primary race practically over now and knowing, as we all do, who the nominee is going to be, I just couldn\u2019t resist writing a post on this one, having avoided writing anything about politics all this while.\nWell, it was quite appalling to see/hear all these months that when it came to Hillary the discussions/commentaries in the so-called \u201cmainstream\u201d media were similar to ones that are generally heard in men\u2019s locker rooms, while Obama has been treated almost like a God-like figure. And while Hillary\u2019s \u201cracist\u201d remarks were dissected/analyzed with great relish, no one, it seemed to me, paid any particular attention to the disgusting misogynist remarks directed at her throughout the primary campaign season, with the result that the Democratic party has managed, or so it seems, to lose its grip over white women voters now. I have a feeling that this is going to cost the Democrats another general election. (Of course, I could be wrong; I am not a political \u201cpundit\u201d, after all!)\nSo much has my mother been miffed/angry at the blatant sexist remarks openly made in the media against Hillary that she has vowed now to vote for McCain this Fall. To her, the contest has \u201cdemonstrated\u201d yet again that women still haven\u2019t been able to break the glass ceiling in this male-dominated world. Is anyone listening to women voters like her?\nA video sample:\nIn mathematical parlance, this is the only instance in which Left = Right, if you know what I mean.\nMay 4, 2008 in Uncategorized | by Todd Trimble | 7 comments\nThe late great Paul Erd\u00f6s was not a religious man (his take on religion seems to have been fairly ironic, referring for example to God as \u201cThe Supreme Fascist\u201d), except of course when it came to mathematics. Ever the Platonist, he considered that when he died, he might finally get a chance to gaze upon \u201cThe Book\u201d which, as if written by God, contains the most beautiful and enlightening proofs of all theorems. The highest form of praise from Erd\u00f6s for a proof was, \u201cIt\u2019s straight from The Book!\u201d He also said, \u201cYou don\u2019t have to believe in God, but you should believe in The Book!\u201d\nDo you believe in The Book? I\u2019m not sure I do!\nIn fact, there is this book by Aigner and Ziegler, \u201cProofs from The Book\u201d. In it they include the following one-sentence proof by Don Zagier on Fermat\u2019s two square theorem (that a prime congruent to is a sum of two squares):\nA One-Sentence Proof That Every Prime p congruent to 1 modulo 4 Is a Sum of Two Squares\nD. Zagier\nDepartment of Mathematics, University of Maryland, College Park, MD 20742\nThe involution on a finite set S = {(x,y,z) \\in N^3 : x^2 +4yz = p } defined by\n( x+2z, z, y-x-z )  if   x < y-z\n(x,y,z) ---> { ( 2y-x, y, x-y+z )  if y-z < x < 2y\n( x-2y, x-y+z, y )  if   x > 2y\nhas exactly one fixed point, so |S| is odd and the involution defined by\n(x,y,z) ---> (x,z,y)\nalso has a fixed point.\nI plucked this off the Web from here; the author of the page prefaces it with a comment:\nThe following constitutes the essential text of a complete research article; I have\nomitted only some comments at the end concerning the history of this type of argument.\nThe author reproves a famous result.  He builds his proof into a single sentence\nas simply a tour-de-force.  In fact, he has left many straightforward steps for\nthe reader to verify.\n1.  As an exercise in critical reading, list all the implicit claims that the\nreader must verify in order to accept this argument as a proof.\n2.  As an exercise in logic and algebra, supply all the details necessary to\nsupport these claims.   Package all this as a long-winded rewrite of Zagier's\narticle written so that any high school algebra student could easily read it\nwith comprehension.\nYou should expect to expand Zagier's single sentence to a full page or more.\nMy own reaction to this proof: it is surely dazzling in its compression, although one\u2019s first reaction is likely to be \u201cWTF?!?\u201d \u2014 what just happened here? The underlying idea is that the number of fixed points of an involution on a finite set (i.e., a function equal to its own inverse) has the same parity as itself; it follows that if has odd parity, then any involution on has at least one fixed point; such a fixed point of the involution on Zagier\u2019s set yields a solution to , whence the theorem. So the bulk of the proof is in showing that has odd parity, by showing that his nontrivial involution has exactly one fixed point.\nAnd I guess you can see, by staring at his casewise-defined involution for a while, that its only fixed point is where . It then remains to check that this really is a well-defined function from to , and it really is an involution. The full verification probably does take up at least a page.\nIt truly is a jaw-dropping proof. My problem though is that it looks like black magic. I mean, I can construct a line-by-line verification that the proof does what it purports to do, but in a deeper sense I still don\u2019t get it. How Zagier cooked up this involution is a mystery to me, and unless I made a concerted effort to memorize it, it would remain unmemorable to me (that is, unless someone were to reveal the underlying mystery to me \u2014 I suspect that that would take a few sentences or more! Can anyone help me?).\nWhat do you think \u2014 does it qualify as a Book proof? Me personally, I prefer proofs which are enlightening \u2014 arguments that I can really understand, proofs that stick, proofs I can take with me to the grave. Put it this way: if God were to write a proof which consumed an absolute minimum number of bytes in some optimal language, it still wouldn\u2019t be much of a Book proof to me unless I (a limited human) could really understand it, and if it were really better in that sense than its closest competitors.\nI don\u2019t think I believe too strongly in the reality of \u201cBook proofs\u201d, or at least I\u2019m skeptical that every theorem can be said to have a Book proof. Every mathematical statement and proof is embodied in some larger context or matrix of ideas, many requiring patient assimilation before a light suddenly flashes on. I tend to believe that\u2019s the rule rather than the exception, and the idea that we should believe in a Book proof for every theorem, possessing a snappy immediacy which cries \u201cBehold!\u201d, is based on a dangerous and even crazy fallacy concerning the nature of mathematics.\n[At the same time: we can all agree that Erd\u00f6s was an absolute genius at finding Book proofs! \ud83d\ude42 ]",

This luxury five star hotel is frequented by some of the richest and most famous faces of our time, and you can pretty much ensure that your every whim will be catered to while you\u2019re there. Whether you want champagne on tap or you simply want to sleep surrounded by fine furnishings, you\u2019ll enjoy every single moment of your stay. Yes, it\u2019s a wallet-emptier, but you\u2019re worth it.\nGo to a Chamber Music Concert in Sainte-Chapelle\nThis Paris chapel is one of the most beautiful places to spend some tie thanks to its stunning Gothic architecture dating back to the 13th century, and the impressive stained glass windows it boasts, but it really becomes spectacular when there is music playing because the acoustics are to die for. If you visit when an evening concert of baroque music is playing, you\u2019ll be instantly transported to another time and place, and even if classical music isn\u2019t usually your thing, you will be bowled over by the skill of the musician and the emotions of the pieces they play.\nWalk Below Les falaises d\u2019Etretat\nLes falaises d\u2019Etretat are the most spectacular white cliffs you will ever see. Arguably, the best way to enjoy their natural beauty is by walking along the beach below them when the tied is low. If you\u2019re a bit more adventurous, there is a cliff path that you can take down to the beach, but it\u2019s so steep that it\u2019s definitely not one for the faint-hearted.\nVisit the D-Day Beaches\nOkay, so it isn\u2019t the most upbeat holiday activity there is, but the beaches in Normandy, which were the sites of the D-Day landings are a huge part of history and if you\u2019re in France, making an effort to see them is never going to be a mistake. Omaha, Sword Beach, Juno Beach, Gold Beach and Utah Beach are the places where the Allied forces landed, changing the course of the war and ensuring that the Nazis were not victorious. Standing there, you can feel years of history and emotion. They are really special places.\nLunch at L\u2019Arp\u00e8ge\nConsidered by many to be one of the best restaurants in the world, if you\u2019re serious about your food, you\u2019re going to want to have a spot of lunch at L\u2019Arp\u00e8ge in Paris. This restaurant serves up some of the freshest, finest and most flavourful food you are likely to find anywhere in the world. The vegetables, in particular, are amazing, due to the chef\u2019s love of all things that grow from the ground. Yes, it\u2019s expensive, but lunch is far cheaper than an evening meal, and really it\u2019s worth every penny.\nSkiing is one of those things that people either love or hate, or at least think they hate (many of the haters have never actually tried it), but I firmly believe that it\u2019s one of those holiday experiences that everyone should try at least once, and the French Alps are probably the best place to give it a go due to the beautiful scenery, laid-back approach tot he sport an abundance of luxury chalets like Meribel Chalet Lapin Blanc, which are perfect for relaxing in after you\u2019ve got yourself covered in snow. Be sure to cosy up with a glass of wine and a sauna at the end of the day and you\u2019ll have a fabulous time.\nBask in the Beauty of Provence\u2019s Lavender Fields\nWhether you\u2019re a lover of all things floral or not, you will be blown away by the stunning natural; beauty of Provence\u2019s lavender fields in full bloom. The perfume they produce is simpler and more beautiful than anything Jo Malone could produce and the vibrant colours are more amazing than any artist could create. Spend some time walking through the fields and you will feel like you\u2019re in another world, and it will intoxicate you.\nPeople Watch Along the Champs-\u00c9lys\u00e9es\nThe Champs-\u00c9lys\u00e9es is probably the most famous avenue in the whole of France. Located in the heart of Paris, you may remember it from films like the Jean Luc Godard classic Breathless and Le Roi des Champs-\u00c9lys\u00e9es by Yves Mirande. It is the place to go if you want to observe the Parisian way of life, see lots of characters and, yes do some shopping in the chic boutiques and bakeries of the capital.\nThe food at the local markets you\u2019ll find all over France is fresher and more beautiful than you could ever imagine. Whether you buy bread, strawberries or cheese, you will not be disappointed, and best of all, you\u2019ll get to eat an amazing meal for very little. If you take the time to talk to the stallholders and the other shoppers, you will have a great time getting immersed in the culture of the place, too. It might be a simple experience, but it isn\u2019t one to be skipped.\nFound a few things to add to your bucket list?\nThings to Do in France Before You Die was last modified: June 14th, 2018 by TGB\nThings to do in FranceThings to Do in France Before You DieVisiting France",

Yet that's exactly what we got today in a panel with Anthony, who starred as Travis Mayweather in Star Trek: Enterprise; and Connor Trinneer, who starred as Charles \"Trip\" Tucker III in Enterprise. Anthony had only just heard of the Harlem Shake phenomenon a little while before the panel, and he realized that there was no Star Trek Harlem Shake\u2014until now. True to form, he quickly and enthusiastically got the crowd ready to do the Harlem Shake. What were the results? Check it out here:\nConnor was filming it on his phone (while a DJ played the song), so he wasn't in the video\u2014but hundreds of other Star Trek fans were. It was a lot of fun to watch, and I can say for sure that we just went where no Star Trek convention has gone before.\nRetrieved from \"https://trekinitiative.fandom.com/wiki/User_blog:Brandon_Rhea/Do_the_Harlem_Shake:_Star_Trek_Style?oldid=6732\"",

        "raw_content": "Bryan Singer's Red Sonja reboot probably won't happen after backlash\nPhoto credit: Jason LaVeris/FilmMagic - Getty Images\nNote: The following article contains discussion of sexual misconduct allegations that some readers may find upsetting.\nUpdate: The backlash to Bohemian Rhapsody director Bryan Singer following sexual misconduct allegations may have killed his nex major movie project.\nAfter new allegations arose last month, the producers of his Red Sonja comic book reboot insisted that it \"continue[d] to be in development\", but now that doesn't seem to be the case.\nA spokesperson for studio Millennium Films told Deadline that Red Sonja is \"not on the slate at the moment and is not for sale\" for international distributors. That's likely a sign that the film has been shelved.\nProducer Avi Lerner - who last month referred to the Singer controversy as \"agenda-driven fake news\" - has also backed away from that stance by saying his accusers \"should be taken very, very seriously\".\nOriginal: Bohemian Rhapsody director Bryan Singer will keep his next job rebooting Red Sonja even as the backlash continues over new sexual misconduct allegations.\nSinger faced fresh allegations of historic sexual misconduct this week from four men, who spoke out in an article published by The Atlantic. The filmmaker has denied those allegations.\nSome have called for Singer to be replaced in Expendables and Rambo producer Avi Lerner's live-action reboot of the Marvel Comics sword-and-sandal hero, but Lerner has now insisted that will not be happening in a strongly-worded statement to Entertainment Weekly.\nPhoto credit: Yuriko Nakao/Getty Images\nThe producer said: \"I continue to be in development for Red Sonja and Bryan Singer continues to be attached. The over $800 million Bohemian Rhapsody has grossed, making it the highest-grossing drama in film history, is a testament to his remarkable vision and acumen.\n\"I know the difference between agenda-driven fake news and reality, and I am very comfortable with this decision. In America, people are innocent until proven guilty.\u201d\nNearly at the same time as Lerner confirmed Singer's Red Sonja job was safe, LGBTQ+ advocacy group GLAAD condemned the director by announcing that it would remove Bohemian Rhapsody from contention for its Media Awards.\nGLAAD said in a statement: \"This week's story in The Atlantic documenting unspeakable harms endured by young men and teenage boys brought to light a reality that cannot be ignored or even tacitly rewarded.\n\"Singer's response to The Atlantic story wrongfully used 'homophobia' to deflect from sexual assault allegations and GLAAD urges the media and the industry at large to not gloss over the fact that survivors of sexual assault should be put first.\"\nSinger has been accused of multiple instances of sexual misconduct in the past and is being sued for allegedly raping a 17-year-old boy in 2003, according to legal documents. He denies all claims.\nIn the aftermath of Bohemian Rhapsody receiving five Academy Award nominations earlier this week, the film's star Rami Malek said he \"was not aware\" of allegations against Singer when he signed up to play Freddie Mercury.\nSinger was fired from the Queen biopic after he failed to return to set from a Thanksgiving break, but received the directing credit on Bohemian Rhapsody instead of Dexter Fletcher, who took over and finished the movie.\nRape Crisis England and Wales works towards the elimination of all forms of sexual violence and sexual misconduct.

        "raw_content": "No casualties in Florida nightclub siege caused by police gunfire - officials\nJoey Roulette\nORLANDO, Fla. (Reuters) - Police gunfire was responsible for none of the civilian casualties at the Pulse nightclub in Florida as officers sought to end a rampage by a man who killed 49 people in the one of the deadliest mass shootings in U.S. history, state authorities said on Wednesday.\nIn a report following a six-month investigation into the emergency response to the June 2016 massacre at the Orlando club, investigators determined that 14 responding officers had fired more than 180 shots during five attempts to take down the shooter, Orange-Osceola State Attorney Aramis Ayala said.\n\u201cAll officers have been cleared of any wrongdoing,\u201d Ayala said at the news conference on Wednesday. \u201cNo casualties were the result of friendly fire.\u201d\nThe 29-year-old gunman, Omar Mateen, opened fire shortly after 2 a.m. local time during the LGBT-friendly club\u2019s popular Latin night, shooting patrons on the dance floor and spraying bullets at others hiding in bathroom stalls.\nHe then took hostages during a three-hour-long standoff with police, claiming allegiance to a leader of the Islamic State militant group before he was shot dead by police.\nDuring the briefing, Chief Assistant State Attorney Deborah Barra offered a minute-by-minute breakdown of the police response, using a diagram of the nightclub to explain the findings.\nDuring the attack, the shooter\u2019s assault rifle jammed after firing 186 shots, so he switched to his 9mm handgun and went toward the club\u2019s bathrooms. There he called 911 five times and searched the internet before shooting other patrons hiding in the stalls, Barra said.\nThe final exchange between officers and Mateen was through a small hole officers blasted into the hallway in the bathroom area. Through that hole Mateen shot an officer in the helmet with the 9mm. Officers returned gunfire and struck Mateen multiple times including in the head, ending the confrontation.\nPiecing together evidence from surveillance footage, 911 calls and witness testimony, investigators determined that majority of shots fired by police had struck the nightclub\u2019s walls, tables, doors and other structural features of the club. A total of 400 shots were fired that night by police and Mateen.\n\u201cThere is absolutely no evidence that anyone injured was fired by law enforcement,\u201d Barra told reporters Wednesday.\n\u201cEach and every engagement - no civilian was struck. And each time the law enforcement officer pulled the trigger, it was reasonable and justifiable,\u201d she said.\nAyala also issued clearance letters for all the officers involved in the incident.\nAt the time, the Orlando massacre was the deadliest mass shooting in modern U.S. history. It has since been surpassed by a 2017 attack in Las Vegas in which a sniper killed 58 concert attendees from the window of his hotel room.\nThe briefing also comes a day before the one-year anniversary of the massacre at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida, where 17 students and staff members were killed by a former student.\nAdditional reporting by Gina Cherelus in New York, editing by G Crosse",

The four-day festival starts this Thursday in San Diego, and to get you prepared for the fun, we\u2019ve come up with a list of the panels and presentations that absolutely cannot be missed. Today, we\u2019re looking at some of the most highly-anticipated panels from the world of film. Previously: TV Panels That Matter.\nPenguins Of Madagascar \u2014 11:30AM-1PM \u2013 Hall H\nFeaturing Benedict Cumberbatch, John Malkovich, Tom McGrath, directors Simon J. Smith and Eric Darnell\nThere\u2019s a solid chance that this will be a good movie \u2014 even if the notion of penguins living in Madagascar is a bit absurd. But let\u2019s be honest, this panel is about one thing, and thing only, The Cumberbatch, baby! It\u2019s his first time at Comic-Con, and his army of diehard fans will undoubtedly make it special.\nThe Giver \u2014 1:30-2:30 Hall H\nFeaturing Jeff Bridges, Brenton Thwaites, Odeya Rush, director Phillip Noyce, and bestselling author Lois Lowry.\nThe Giver is one of the most beloved books in recent memory, so turning it into a movie that pleases fans will not be an easy task. Still, it\u2019s hard not get excited about anything that features The Dude AND Meryl Streep.\nParamount Pictures \u2014 3PM, Hall H\nDetails are still a bit thin on this one, but rumor has it that we\u2019ll be getting a first-look at Michael Bay\u2019s Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles adaptation, which might lead to the collapse of civilization as we know it. But hey, at least Will Arnett will be there.\nGoonies Never Say Die \u2014 6-7PM, Indigo Ballroom, Hilton Bayfront\nIt was canceled. Bummer. Let\u2019s be honest; even after 30 years, we\u2019ve never stopped doing the Truffle Shuffle. fans of the classic \u201980s film will likely get a kick out of this reunion of the original cast and the screening of a film that has undoubtedly stood the test of time.\nHorns \u2014 3PM Hall H\nHere\u2019s something that might surprise you: Daniel Radcliffe has never been to Comic-Con, despite playing the title character in arguably the most nerd-friendly film series of all-time (other than Star Wars and Lord Of The Rings). He makes his debut this year to promote the fantasy drama Horns, where he\u2019ll be joined by co-star Juno Temple.\n20th Century Fox Panel \u2014 4:20PM Hall H\nThis will be one of the bigger panels of the event, with several hotly anticipated films on display. Among these are The Maze Runner (Dylan O\u2019Brien, Kaya Scodelario, Will Poulter, Writer James Dashner and Director Wes Ball), Book Of Life (Channing Tatum, Ron Perlman, Christina Applegate, Writer/Director Jorge Gutierrez and Producer Guillermo del Toro), Let\u2019s Be Cops (Damon Wayans, Jr., Rob Riggle, Keegan Michael Key), Hitman: Agent 47 (Zachary Quinto, Hannah Ware), and Kingsman (Colin Firth, Samuel L Jackson, Taron Egerton, Sophie Cookson, Sofia Boutella and Co-Creators Mark Millar and Dave Gibbons).\nX-Men: Days Of Future Past \u2014 6:30-7:30PM Room 5AB\nWriter/producer Simon Kinberg gives you a behind the scenes look and one of the year\u2019s biggest movies, even though it faced some harsh criticism. Whether you want to lavish praise upon for him for an obvious masterpiece, or chastise him for destroying the franchise, Marvel fanatics will not want to miss this one.\nTOPICS#Comic-Con\nTAGScomic conCOMIC-CON 2014geekdomMoviesSan Diego",

        "raw_content": "Playtime is over: Investors want their money back\nVineet Jain, Egnyte\t February 28, 2016 11:12 AM\nImage Credit: XiXinXing/Shutterstock\nFor the better part of the last decade, Silicon Valley tech companies have seemingly been on a mission to make up for the down years following the burst of the dot-com bubble, spending money at a record clip. The new offices have been stunning, the sales kickoffs have been larger than life, and the holiday parties have been nothing short of extravagant. Unfortunately for a majority of those companies, who have over-indulged in the exuberance, this joy ride is coming to a screeching halt.\nApple, which is often the poster child for the S&P 500 and widely considered the \u201cconsumer\u2019s stock,\u201d hit a YTD low of $92.11 earlier this month, which has set the tone for the rest of the tech market. Twitter, GoPro, Fitbit, and many more companies that were once considered darlings of the unicorn club, have suffered serious hits to their stock price to start this year and have been trading below their initial IPO price. To make matters worse, crude oil hit its lowest price point since May 2003, and there have been commodity busts worldwide.\nUnderstandably, this has created a palpable fear all across Wall Street. There is only one way for companies to gain investor confidence: show the ability to produce yield.\nThis is true for public companies that have been pummeled over the last few weeks as well as the private companies that have been looking for a quick exit. The most reassuring thing a company can do for its investors is to turn a profit and put money back into their pockets. It will be especially important during these bear market times, as the VCs want nothing more than liquidity so they have the flexibility to shop for their next investment.\nChasing yield has lead to underperformance\nWith commodities underperforming and tech producing home runs like Google and Facebook, investors have been willing to take their chances in the private markets. Unfortunately, this has yielded far more risk than reward.\nSome organizations have been more interested in adding users to create impressive top-line growth for their business than focusing on sales to build a profitable business with a healthy bottom-line. This has resulted in freemium business models, mega rounds of funding, and extremely crowded markets.\nOn the investment side, it has opened up the floodgates for venture capital funding. VCs have poured money into the startup ecosystem, deploying more than $58.8 billion in funding during 2015. \u201cFree money\u201d is flowing, and some companies have jumped at the opportunity, often to their detriment.\nFor example, Jawbone, which has taken over $1 billion in investments over its lifespan and saw its valuation hit upwards of $3 billion, was just forced to take a down round of $165 million at a $1.5 billion valuation. While investors\u2019 eyes were big, the expectations were just too lofty.\nCapital is drying up\nWhile many entrepreneurs initially made the IPO their \u201choly grail,\u201d many of them have been steering clear of the public markets. This inclination to remain private longer means VC money will inevitably dry up. With fewer companies going public, VCs will see less return on their investments and so will have less money to play with. Although investors may be frustrated, they are begrudgingly aware of the motivation behind the initial bets they placed.\nAt the same time, startups have become increasingly wary of the source of their funds. Mattermark CEO, Danielle Morrill, said it best when speaking to Farhad Manjoo of the New York Times: \u201cIf you can get $200 million from private sources, then yeah, I don\u2019t want my company under the scrutiny of the unwashed masses who don\u2019t understand my business.\u201d\nAside from cheap cash in the private sector, there is an understandable fear of the public sector. CEOs watched companies set low price points for their IPO all year in 2015, banking on an opening day pop that would create investor confidence for the following months. What\u2019s very clear is that the public markets are not willing to support companies with a top heavy S-1 \u2013 especially in this most recent market downturn.\nThose of us who\u2019ve been in the Valley long enough to have experienced the dotcom boom of the late \u201990s, can attest to the frenzy created around shiny Internet startups. That was a rapid rise that led to an even more dramatic fall \u2014 bringing business models under scrutiny, driving inflated stock prices down, and increasing demand for cash over flash.\nWhile I don\u2019t believe this is Bubble 2.0, tech has been long overdue for a major correction, and it is time for entrepreneurs to pay the piper \u2014 in other words, pay back their investors.\nAs a CEO it may be difficult to keep all stakeholders in an organization happy, but it is important to stick to the fundamentals and stay true to the core values of business \u2013 cash flow, profits, and sustainability. As VCs tidy up their portfolios in 2016, you can rest assured that a path to profitability will be number one on their agenda for all of their investments.\nVineet Jain is cofounder and CEO of enterprise file services company Egnyte and has 20 years of experience building capital-efficient organizations.",

        "raw_content": "COMMERCE Guest\nHow the new iPhone could drive up the shipping cost of everything\nJan van Casteren, Flexport\t September 13, 2017 4:15 PM\nImage Credit: William Potter/Shutterstock\nEvery September, the price of air freight spikes dramatically. And what else happens every September? Apple drops a new iPhone.\nYesterday, Apple announced the launch of the tenth generation of the iPhone, the iPhone X. The device will be available for pre-order on October 27 and will hit stores on November 3.\nThe huge logistical challenge of delivering millions of iPhones all over the world inevitably leads to an increase in the price of air freight that can last for a number of months.\nThe effect each year is so pronounced that back in 2012 it was claimed that the delivery of the iPhone helped the air freight industry bounce back from a collapse in prices, which at that time were the lowest since the recession.\nBut how can a single product \u2014 one that fits in the palm of your hand \u2014 drive the price of air cargo? Is this just a cunning excuse air forwarders use to up their prices?\nThe iPhone makes up an astonishing amount of air freight volume\nApple ships its iPhones around the world by air rather than by boat, despite the higher logistics costs. Why? Two reasons: speed and working capital. Demand is so high for the iPhone at launch that it spends its first few months almost always on the verge of selling out. Apple likes to create a feeling of scarcity, but its profits are so dependent on iPhone sales that it has to avoid leaving its thousand dollar phones stuck at sea, which can introduce delays of 30 days or more and significantly impact the company\u2019s working capital.\nIt was said that Tim Cook, current Apple CEO, rose through the ranks by streamlining the company\u2019s supply chain, even relocating suppliers to be next to factories in order to reduce inventory from 31 days to six. It\u2019s therefore unsurprising that Apple chooses air freight \u2014 it\u2019s not worth the risk for a customer to find iPhones out of stock and buy an Android instead.\nApple has consistently shipped a stunning number of iPhones by air in the fourth quarter of each year. In Q4 2016, it sold 45.5 million iPhones, down slightly from 48 million in Q4 2015. But let\u2019s take a look at 2014, after the launch of the iPhone 6, when Apple sold an astonishing 74.4 million iPhones. Between summer and autumn 2014, rates for moving a kilogram of freight by air from China to San Francisco increased from around $2.50/kg to $11/kg. The industry had already priced in the increase in expectation of the new phone dropping.\nI\u2019m in the freight business, and my team has been tracking this effect. According to our analysis, Apple books the equivalent of one full 747-8 freighter for every 600,000 iPhones sold. (Technically, one can only load 300,000 on a plane before it maxes out on weight, but for the purpose of this calculation we can ignore that fact.) That\u2019s 124 freighter trips in Q4 2014, or 1.37 plane trips per day. That\u2019s an unprecedented amount of volume for a single product.\nThe iPhone 6 weighs 385g, including packaging. According to our calculations, Apple\u2019s 30 million North American-bound iPhones weighed almost 12,000 metric tons. That amounts to 2 percent of total China-US transpacific air freight capacity in the fourth quarter.\nIt\u2019s truly remarkable for a single product to make up 2 percent of the entire global capacity for air freight across the Pacific.\nWhy the price hike?\nA key feature of air cargo is that supply is fixed. Even as Christmas season approaches and demand for space on planes increases, it\u2019s not possible to add a host of new flights. So it follows that when demand exceeds the supply of air cargo, the price must appreciate until it reaches the marginal willingness to pay of the last entrant into the market.\nWe estimate that the cost of freight makes up less than 0.01 percent of the iPhone\u2019s value. This means that it\u2019s highly unlikely the price of freight will become so high that Apple won\u2019t be willing to ship its product. There are a number of organizations like Apple shipping highly valuable items where freight is a negligible percentage of the product\u2019s value, and if these players get into a bidding war over fixed capacity, it\u2019s inevitable that the price of freight will rapidly increase.\nIt\u2019s likely that there are enough other companies in similar situations that a 2 percent increase in demand \u2014 when the new iPhone is released, for example \u2014 could lead to a price hike of between two and five times, which is what we observe during peak air freight shipping seasons.\nThis year, air freight rates are among the highest we\u2019ve seen in a decade. The impact of both Apple and Samsung launches has already been factored into pricing \u2014 rates have been increasing since August and will continue to tick up over October and November. And, depending on the continued demand for new products, we could still see elevated pricing until 2018.\nHow does this affect the price of retail goods?\nIt\u2019s not just iPhones that are shipped by air. Any consumer good that needs to get into customer\u2019s hands quickly tends to travel through the skies \u2014 fast fashion brands such as H&M, Zara, and Topshop, for example, rely on the air cargo industry to get clothes in good condition into their stores as quickly as possible.\nWhen Apple buys out huge amounts of air cargo \u2014 in combination with the upcoming Christmas season \u2014 it costs a lot more for retail vendors to get their goods on the plane at all. While this gives cause for carriers to celebrate, it\u2019s not great news for retailers and consumers. Retailers have to cover the extra costs for air freight somehow, and one way to do that is by making the customer pay more.\nSo, there you have it. One pocket-sized gadget can have an enormous ripple effect across an entire industry. And it\u2019s all because of air freight.\nJan van Casteren is VP Europe at Flexport.",

        "raw_content": "The small, northern constellation Triangulum harbors this magnificent face-on spiral galaxy, M33. Its popular names include the Pinwheel Galaxy or just the Triangulum Galaxy. M33 is over 50,000 light-years in diameter, third largest in the Local Group of galaxies after the Andromeda Galaxy (M31), and our own Milky Way. About 3 million light-years from the Milky Way, M33 is itself thought to be a satellite of the Andromeda Galaxy and astronomers in these two galaxies would likely have spectacular views of each other\u2019s grand spiral star systems. As for the view from planet Earth, this sharp composite image nicely shows off M33\u2019s blue star clusters and pinkish star forming regions along the galaxy\u2019s loosely wound spiral arms. In fact, the cavernous NGC 604 is the brightest star forming region, seen here at about the 7 o\u2019clock position from the galaxy center. Like M31, M33\u2019s population of well-measured variable stars have helped make this nearby spiral a cosmic yardstick for establishing the distance scale of the Universe.\nfrom NASA http://ift.tt/2zzRm20\nPosted on Thursday, 30 November 2017 by VGC\tThis entry was posted in ifttt-photograph and tagged IFTTT, NASA.

        "raw_content": "So my Wonder Woman comic arrived yesterday and I read it today.\nIt\u2019s got a lot of good stuff in it, I can certainly say that. The writing is good. But I wonder if maybe I\u2019m just not used to superhero comic pacing or something, because a lot of stuff seemed to go by very quickly without much exploration or attention to detail, mostly in the form of what seemed to be cameo appearances by other characters \u2013 not so much that I lost track of it, but it seemed like it expected the reader to take a lot of things for granted. Then again, this is Wonder Woman, which has been running for over 70 years by this point, so I guess in that context this was actually a really well-executed comic in terms of what it explained and how much time it spent on it. It integrated the cameos well enough for the purposes of the story, and in the end, that\u2019s all that really matters. In a way, it added to the almost-camp undertones of both stories, and I have to say that I rather enjoyed that aspect of the comic\nAlso, Wonder Woman apparently has a sense of humour, or at least when Gail Simone is writing her, which I most certainly appreciated.\nWhat struck me the most, though, was how coloured my expectations were of the comic after I read the foreword by Mercedes Lackey. I really, really wish I hadn\u2019t read it until afterwards, because the whole time I was looking for all of these things that just didn\u2019t turn up, or not the way I was expecting them to. I wish I\u2019d gone in cold.\nBut it only took like an hour to read the whole thing, so I will most likely read it again. And it told a whole story, too. A bit of a self-contained episode (and then another, shorter one to follow it up). A couple of short stories, I guess. I was expecting something of a graphic novel for some reason, so that\u2019s also part of it.\nBut I did like it. And if this is how Wonder Woman is supposed to be, then I think I\u2019m a fan.\nIn fact it was quite surprising that she was just kind of like any other archetypal superhero you might imagine \u2013 strong, resourceful, compassionate, honourable, uber-competent \u2013 and I was expecting her to be constantly compensating for something. It\u2019s the impression I\u2019ve always gotten from Wonder Woman, the aura that\u2019s been projected around her, though whether that\u2019s due to the character or her reception or the fact that so many other female action-heroes do suffer from being written that way I have no idea. She was not, though. She came across as completely whole, and a little otherworldly \u2013 which makes sense, seeing as she\u2019s an Amazon and all that. So yeah, I dig it. I would totally read more. By Gail Simone at least. I do strongly suspect that a big part of the reason she\u2019s so compelling is because it\u2019s a woman writing her. Which has happened only three or four times in Wonder Woman\u2019s 70-year history. Not surprising, sadly.\nAnd also she made the Lasso of Truth \u2026 cool. Like \u2026 actually cool. Not mind-bogglingly awesome or anything, but still, I don\u2019t think there are enough points in the world to sufficiently award Gail Simone for pulling that off.\nThe story itself (the first, main story, The Circle) (also: spoilers, skip this paragraph to avoid) concerns Wonder Woman\u2019s origins, and ties in with issues of both female identity and colonialism. I can at least talk about the colonialism; it was handled rather \u2026 amusingly. The story starts with WW facing down some sentient gorilla dudes and getting them on her side, and they then come back to fight for her when the Nazis invade Themyscira. She says a few lines from a poem and one of the gorillas responds: \u2018Hmm. Kipling. Not my favourite.\u2019 And I must admit that I appreciated that. Making peace with a race of Noble Savages and then getting them to fight for your agenda is a really standard colonial narrative, so I at least appreciated this little touch of self-awareness. I mean it was still happening but whatever, maybe if I was more familiar with the comic continuity it wouldn\u2019t be quite the same. Also there\u2019s a dude called Captain Nazi. It\u2019s pretty hilarious, and it adds to the \u2018almost-camp\u2019 feeling that runs throughout the first story, and gets a little stronger in the second. All I can say about the theme of female identity, not being female myself, is that I thought that it worked well for the story and raised some very interesting questions.\nI wasn\u2019t expecting the stories to be as light-hearted as they were. Not that they were, strictly speaking, light-hearted affairs, but I really liked the balance between comedic and dramatic elements; it worked very well, especially in The Circle. The second story, the name of which escapes me, was pretty ridiculous, but it still worked with this dynamic. And it really is the kind of stuff you have creative license to do when you\u2019re playing with a superhero, so obviously Gail was having a bit of fun, and as a reader I definitely enjoyed it.\nI\u2019m still not sure whether I want to actually \u2018take a break\u2019 from Tallulah right now. In terms of taking notes anyway. Not my own, but I want to read my beta feedback and keep up momentum. Having said that, though, I felt much more eager to get underway yesterday, whereas right now I\u2019m starting to think that at least waiting until the weekend is probably a good idea, just so that I have a little bit of time to snap out of tunnel-vision mode. I think this next \u2026 phase, I don\u2019t know what else to call it really \u2026 I\u2019ll just play by ear and see how it goes. I should also keep track of what I\u2019m doing with myself within it, so that I can learn from it for future projects.\nI definitely think that I\u2019ll have to incorporate more reading into my Writer Schedule, though. More stuff in general. Exercise, for instance. And a bit of socialisation. It all feeds me in some way, and writers gotta eat, yo.\nI mean I can get a lot of reading done in two days. I could read, like, two novels tomorrow if I really wanted to.\nPosted in Bibliography.\tTagged comics, reading, revising a first draft, taking a break, wonder woman, writing\nYeah okay that was a really stupid idea.\nThis is the kind of thing \u2013 not taking breaks, not letting ideas sit, not making clear plans and sticking to them \u2013 that got me into trouble while trying to draft Mark and Jessie. I ended up feeling so stuck that I ended up resenting the project in its entirety, and only now, five years later, am I starting to feel like picking it up again.\nSo, I still need something to do, and reading and job-hunting is only going to get me so far. Thus, the Interim Projects return.\nI want to take a very short break. Two weeks to a month, tops. I want to keep up momentum. But if nothing else, my little splurge just now in trying to make a synposis tells me that I am simply not ready for that step. There are other things I need to do first. I probably need to read other people\u2019s feedback, for a start, and let that sink in. But I also just need a break. I need a vacation from the project, while I also want to keep writing.\nSo it\u2019s finally time to get to work on that Little Red Riding-Hood re-visioning project of mine.\nI may also read beta notes. In which case this Interim Project may well serve as a sort of emotional buffer between me and the trauma of exposing myself to other people\u2019s feedback. I don\u2019t know if I really need a break before I move onto that, but I do know that I\u2019ll need a break after it, just to let it sink in, so perhaps it\u2019s best to get it over with now? I don\u2019t know. I really don\u2019t know.\nI feel the urge to read the notes, but I felt the urge to write that synopsis, and now I feel sick. Maybe I\u2019m just having withdrawal symptoms and need to tough it out for the next however long it takes until they go away. Or maybe reading the notes is actually the best thing to do.\nI mean it might be the best way to round out this process \u2013 making my own notes, at least having a rough idea of what I could do with draft 2 written down for reference, and ending with reading other people\u2019s notes. Because I think part of the reason my synopsis felt like a drain was due to that lack of outside perspective. And I think it\u2019s outside perspective that I need right now, whether that\u2019s through writing something else, stopping writing altogether for a while and just doing other things, or reading over my beta readers\u2019 notes. I don\u2019t know. All I know is that I can\u2019t sit still right now and it\u2019s driving me insane. I need to get something meaningful done.\nAll right. I took a moment there. I needed it.\nWhat I\u2019m going to do is read other people\u2019s finished work.\nI need a pick-me-up. I\u2019ve got all of these books sitting in my room waiting to be read, some of which I have never touched since buying them (most for English at university). And I might end up reading some beta readers\u2019 notes. I might. I\u2019ll probably have to go over them a few times each anyway. But whatever happens there, I need to interact with something new, right now.\nAnna Dressed in Blood by Kendare Blake is waiting for me right now, and the first chapter was good, so I\u2019ll start there. Then I\u2019ll probably cave in, break my own solemn oath to never read the Old Kingdom Trilogy again (not because I don\u2019t love it, because I do, but because Lirael reminds me way too much of myself in my darkest moments as a teenager), and then by that point I\u2019ll possibly be picked-up enough to move back to Tallulah. And if I find time/energy to work on my Little Red Riding-Hood thing, I\u2019ll do that, too.\nThere. A plan. I have two weeks in which I may enact this plan. Once the two weeks are up, I\u2019m back to Tallulah, no matter what, though of course that doesn\u2019t mean I can\u2019t be doing other stuff simultaneously. A plan. It is made. It is written. And so it shall be.\nI really hope this is the right move. But, as Kirk said in the latest Star Trek film: I don\u2019t know what I\u2019m supposed to do. All I know is what I can do.\nI really wish I had a Spock right now \u2026\nPosted in Writing about Writing.\tTagged getting out of your own head, reading, taking a break, writing\nFor any other writers out there: have you ever done the thing where you sit down to write out a synopsis of your story, get about halfway through doing really short, concise bullet-points, and then get to the point where you actually have to start making stuff up and suddenly you can\u2019t be concise anymore because you don\u2019t know what happens anymore?\nThat\u2019s currently what I\u2019m doing in trying to plan out draft 2. And I mean it\u2019s not surprising or anything, it\u2019s just giving me more reason to think that perhaps I did not read my manuscript with the attention that it deserved, because I feel like I should be able to draw a lot more on the stuff that I already have to fill in some of the blanks here.\nBut maybe that\u2019s being unfair. For all that it was generative and had a lot of ideas that I definitely can use, it was still a very rough draft. And I mean I\u2019m not planning to only make one synopsis and stop there; I will be drafting these synopses as well, especially after I get around to reading my beta readers\u2019 feedback, so nothing\u2019s set in stone here.\nIt\u2019s just hard. I didn\u2019t stick to my own plan. I was going to take a break. Though I didn\u2019t specify how long a break it would be, so that didn\u2019t help.\nAh well, I\u2019ll finish this just to get it out of the way. I can always resort to \u2018Then something happens\u2019 if I really need to. Placeholders are totally legitimate authorial tools in the drafting process.\nA lot of it is coming together very smoothly, though, so I\u2019m certainly happy about that. And I finished The Hunger Games. I like it. I have a few issues with it, as I have a few issues with everything, but it\u2019s good. I would definitely like to get my hands on the next two.\nIt\u2019ll get done eventually. That\u2019s what matters. That\u2019s good enough.\nPosted in The V-Log.\tTagged taking a break, the planning stage, writing, writing a second draft, writing a synopsis\nWriting While Writing \u2013 Round 6\nAll right. I have slept. My skeletal structure no longer feels like it is caving in on itself. And I can breathe.\nAs I draw closer to actually writing draft 2, I\u2019m worrying more and more that I\u2019ll miss something from draft 1 and then regret it later, that I won\u2019t have identified everything that I could have in terms of themes I could develop or issues I could explore, etc. The thought of finishing the book and sending it off to be published and then realising that it isn\u2019t finished at all terrifies me.\nSo I\u2019m trying to keep myself calm by bearing in mind that this, what I\u2019m doing, is what I\u2019m capable of doing right now, and what feels right right now. That if I stopped now, I would have done the best job that I was capable of doing. Otherwise I\u2019d be doing a better job. And that what I\u2019ve got now, considering that it is now and not later, is good enough.\nHaving said that, there\u2019s a ton of stuff that I tried to signpost to myself while writing draft 1 that has gotten lost, and that frustrates me to no end, because I know it was there, and I don\u2019t know if I picked up on any of it. But perhaps it was only important at the time, if I didn\u2019t pick up on it while reading through this time around; perhaps it was never important at all. I have yet to go through the copious amount of notes I took while writing draft 1 and see if there\u2019s anything useful in there to mine for precious minerals \u2013 I think I\u2019ll wait until I\u2019ve gotten a plan for draft 2 outlined at least, though, so that I have a clear structure to work within. And also I\u2019ve still got my beta readers\u2019 notes to get through, so they may have picked up on it for me, as well as other things that I never even considered.\nI suppose that as long as I\u2019m happy with what I\u2019ve got, it doesn\u2019t matter what it isn\u2019t. So my goal is therefore to be happy with what I\u2019ve got.\nOn with the final chapter!\nWho is a better antagonist: Voldemort or Gollum?\nI raise this question because it\u2019s becoming more and more apparent to me just how important it is that I do what\u2019s right for my story, with regards to my characters. I have all of these options with what directions I could take certain characters in, and they all interest me. But I haven\u2019t really looked at which versions actually suit the story the most, and now that I\u2019m trying, it\u2019s becoming apparent that the choices are actually very obvious \u2013 they\u2019re also difficult, though, because I still like the other ideas, and they don\u2019t really work anywhere else.\nTrying to imagine Voldemort and Gollum switching places makes it very clear to me that antagonists especially (and the dilemma I\u2019m facing right now is what to do with an antagonist) need to help tell the story; it\u2019s just as important to have an antagonist who suits the story as a protagonist who suits the story. It all has to come back to the story. It all has to feel like it belongs there, because if it doesn\u2019t feel like it fits, that\u2019s a weakness that the story doesn\u2019t need to have, and will suffer for having. Like if Wickham had been a Decepticon. While a pretty awesome idea, it doesn\u2019t really work within the context of the story.\nUGH Male Writer Syndrome rearing its ugly head again. I mean obviously I can\u2019t help being a male writer, nor do I want to, but I can help being a Male Writer. Though I suppose to my credit I did at least manage to spot it. And it\u2019s only the first draft. There\u2019s still time.\nAlso I need to do some medical and police procedural research \u2026 no these two things are not really related \u2026\nCover-stories as plot-points are always interesting. It\u2019s a bit like Mr Charles in Inception; if it goes wrong, it\u2019s because it\u2019s exposing the narrative as being tied to the writer\u2019s agenda and breaks the illusion. I mean it\u2019s the same with anything your characters have to react to in the story, but the fact that this thing they\u2019re reacting to is a story really is really making that apparent to me right now.\nI mean I know it\u2019s the last chapter, but that doesn\u2019t mean characters can just start crawling out of the woodwork to participate \u2026 it\u2019s not a cast reunion \u2026\nLol for university in-jokes. English is Arts. Arts is funny. Lol.\nOh, there\u2019s another one. This one\u2019s actually funny.\nSeriously I rather enjoyed English and am glad that I had the opportunity to exercise my critical thinking skills by doing an Arts degree, but a lot of how it\u2019s structured is rather ridiculous. I mean why do English exams even exist? The whole point of English is learning how to develop an informed argument by doing research and having heaps of resources available to hand for referencing, through the process of which you come to develop your own critical opinion, not rote-learning and memorising quotes and articles for a pop-quiz.\nOh, the gratification that comes with seeing that you\u2019ve managed to characterise a character exactly the way you wanted to, even if it\u2019s only in one isolated part of the manuscript. A most validating experience.\nIt is almost as gratifying as getting to the end of the draft and having the ending feel pretty much exactly the way you\u2019d hoped it would. I got chills. I am a happy writer.\nI have made notes on a full draft of a book.\nI mean yeah I still have all of this other stuff to do but seriously, I have never \u2018been here\u2019 before. This is pretty awesome. I feel like I can actually do this thing.\nI think my next step is actually going to be to take a break, just a quick one, in which I will finish reading The Hunger Games (and probably write up a review-ish thing, more just my impressions than an actual review). I think I\u2019ll save note-reading and draft-outlining for the next step. Then maybe another quick break, and then draft 2 commences, woot!\nThanks to everybody who\u2019s been following me, whether you\u2019re new or whether you\u2019ve been here since November last year; I really appreciate it. Knowing that other people are in some way watching my progress helps keep me honest, and more to the point, keeps me writing consistently. This Writing While Writing thing is super-helpful. I earnestly recommend it to anybody struggling with motivation.\nPosted in Writing While Writing.\tTagged keeping at it, remember to take breaks, revising a first draft, writing\nI haven\u2019t slept in over 48 hours.\nWell, that isn\u2019t true \u2013 I remember sort of dozing off for about two hours the other day, and having fitful dreams in which myself, Simon Pegg and Nick Frost were saving our post-apocalyptic jungle-showboat-theme park world from leather-clad cyborg aliens and there may or may not have also been Pokemon involved, so I guess that counts \u2013 but the night preceding that afternoon I didn\u2019t sleep because I went to bed too early and sent my circadian clock into shock, and last night I couldn\u2019t sleep because one: my face-bones felt like they were caving in from the stress exerted by gravity, and two: having congestion, I couldn\u2019t breathe through my nose properly. But most that first one, because that was horrible, and it\u2019s still going on now, meaning I am loath to even lie down.\nStrangely enough, I don\u2019t feel all that sleep-deprived. I guess it really does go to show that when you stay indoors all day and partake in virtually no physical activity past typing and breathing, you really don\u2019t need much sleep. That or I\u2019m actually becoming a teenager again and have regained my youthful vigour. I\u2019ve certainly been feeling more teenagery over the last couple of days, but in a mostly good way, so that\u2019s nice.\nComing up to this last part of the note-taking process, I actually feel like I ought to go back and read through the whole draft again from start to finish now. A lot of what my notes have ended up being consists of changes I want to make in draft 2 feeding off what I\u2019m identifying structure-wise in draft 1. And I mean that\u2019s important; that\u2019s something I have to do, and there is no way I\u2019d take this draft as it is and just tidy up the spelling a bit and leave it at that. Most of the changes that I want to make are to swap around certain scenes as well, so that part of it feels organic, and of course nothing is set down in stone; but at the same time I can feel myself getting tunnel-vision, that stone is actually exactly what my notes are set down in, and as such I need to get some perspective. A second read-through, just focusing on what\u2019s on the page and not looking for ways to make changes, might be really useful. Or it might not. Maybe just taking a few weeks off to get distance before coming back would be more helpful.\nOr maybe taking a few weeks off to get distance and then doing a second read-through. Because now that I\u2019ve gotten all of the \u2018make changes to fix things\u2019 urges out of my system \u2013 well, actually, I have no idea if that\u2019s true, but at least I\u2019ve given myself a chance to vent them, and there\u2019s still one chapter to go \u2013 a second read-through would, I feel, give me a chance to more clearly see what is on the page, rather than just jumping directly to what could be on the page.\nI mean there\u2019s the issue of time and stuff, but honestly I know I can work far faster than I\u2019ve been doing up to this point; last year I had a massive paradigm-shift in how productive I was because I introduced structure into my work ethic (a shocking correlation, I know), and through the Writing While Writing initiative I\u2019m now almost compelled to do work on my project every single day. Being sick is compromising my stamina, yes, but it would be folly to sacrifice the body for the sake of the art that it can potentially produce. I need to be smart about when I work, is what I\u2019m saying. There\u2019s no point in revising or drafting if I\u2019m not lucid or clear-minded enough to be working at peak performance. Also I actually want to get healthy again, and stress via overworking is kind of not the best way to go about that.\nAnd also staring at computer screens is not helping my face-imploding sensations, and I do all of my revision on a computer, because, well, I do. I might try the old pen-and-paper approach with the next project, or even the next draft, but since I\u2019ve almost finished my notes anyway it seems silly to switch over to an entirely different medium just for the sake of avoiding electronic stimulus for a few hours.\nActually maybe that doesn\u2019t seem silly. Maybe that seems smart.\nUgh I don\u2019t know.\nWhat I do know is that I\u2019m excited about getting to do some actual writing again once I\u2019ve got a plan for draft 2. This is going to be interesting, because I tend to not gel with pre-planned structure when it comes to writing something. Or, rather, the last time I did it was a really long time ago \u2013 like, wow, eight years \u2013 and it felt like a fluke, albeit a fluke that I stuck with for almost a year. So obviously I can do it. And having a stronger structure will help this story a lot; it\u2019ll provide a strong skeleton to prop up the flesh.\nBut it is the flesh that concerns me, and the reason I want to do this second read-through, so that I can take in more of the content now that I\u2019ve taken care of how it\u2019s presented. Although perhaps that\u2019s something to save for draft 3. I\u2019m working off what I hear other writers do with their drafts by putting structure first, and I don\u2019t think it\u2019s a bad thing to do. I suppose I\u2019m just getting a bit hung-up about it not being \u2018my style\u2019, but then again I\u2019ve never gotten this far with writing a book before, so I hardly know what \u2018my style\u2019 even is at this point in the process, so there\u2019s no harm in trying what\u2019s worked for other people.\nAnd at some point the structure does have to come in. And again, I think it\u2019ll be for the better when it does. I do like structure, in the sense that I enjoy the feeling that I\u2019m \u2018playing the game\u2019. There is something to be said for the satisfaction that can come with being an effective replicator.\nHaving said that, I do now think that I\u2019ll leave that second read-through until draft 2 is done. Once the structure is there, I\u2019ll have something to embellish and decorate and enfleshen.\nEnfleshen. I like that.\nThe other thing I\u2019m worried about is the fact that I want to add new stuff to draft 2 that isn\u2019t there at all in draft 1. It\u2019s stuff that fulfills certain roles that are not filled by what I\u2019ve provided myself with in draft 2, so even if these are not the appropriate additions to bring in, additions will need to be brought in, of that there is no question.\nI mean I think they do \u2026\nArgh. A second read-through could help me with that! But yeah, I am pretty sure that I don\u2019t have a whole story here just with the parts I\u2019ve got \u2013 I have a lot of a story, which is great, and to be fair, yeah, I could take what I\u2019ve got and turn it into a story just with clever editing and reshuffling. But I don\u2019t think it\u2019d be the story I want to tell. There is a lot of disparity between what I wrote and what I had in mind; that\u2019s fine, and the idea I had was not a complete picture anyways, but I would like to bring the two of them closer together.\nI do want to see if I can get away with adding in very little, though. A lot of it is just expansion on stuff that\u2019s already there, which I don\u2019t really count, but there is one big sequence I like the idea of that isn\u2019t in there in any form, and thus I\u2019d be bringing it in out of nowhere. That\u2019s the part I\u2019m worried about, because it will be the first draft of that scene mixed into the body of the second draft.\nOh well. Only one way to find out I guess. While I won\u2019t be doing revision tonight, I will probably finish up The Hunger Games. It\u2019s hard to put down, so judging by that I\u2019ll say that I\u2019m really enjoying it. I mean I also like Katniss and the premise and the little twist on the love-triangle that\u2019s going on, even though I hear it gets less subversive as the books go on, which does not sound to my liking. But I\u2019m invested now, so I will try and read them all before the next film comes out. Revision can wait until tomorrow, by which time I will, hopefully, have gotten some freaking sleep.\nI hope I\u2019m doing the right thing. But since I can\u2019t know that, I hope I\u2019m doing what I really want to do. I guess that\u2019s the most important thing, because that\u2019s the only thing I can know for sure.\nI really want to not be sick. That\u2019s what I really want \u2026\nPosted in Filler.\tTagged being sick sucks, effective note-taking, revising a first draft, writing, writing a second draft\nSo I\u2019ve been having what I have referred to as Sleep Bulimia for the last couple of weeks, in that I\u2019ve been having wildly fluctuating sleep-patterns from day-to-day. Last night I went to bed at 11pm in an attempt to rectify this and ended up not sleeping at all. It was horrible. And now I have a cold, so I spent a couple of hours today just snoozing in an attempt to feel better.\nWhat ended up happening was that I actually felt kind of worse, and I think it\u2019s because I tend to become very insular when I get sick \u2013 I become very self-focused. Which makes sense I guess; your body starts acting up so your attention naturally fixes on the disturbance. But then it\u2019s not just a change in health and comfort that you\u2019re dealing with, but also a change in habit and activity, and just gathering from what I\u2019ve been experiencing today I assume that\u2019s just as disorienting.\nSo with that in mind, I\u2019m going to do whatever I would have done today had I not been sick. I mean if I had the flu or something then maybe I\u2019d just give today a miss, but then again, maybe not. Plus now I have chilli to eat. With other stuff. Not just straight chilli. My mother can do that, but apparently chilli-tolerance is not hereditary.\nTo the climax!\nWhoops, almost missed a pretty big slip-up. Although it may have been intentional, now that I think of it. I hope it wasn\u2019t. It works, as in it\u2019s the sort of thing other stories do all the time \u2013 two characters with a lot of unresolved tension are having a conversation, some important, plot-hinging-upon issue is about to be raised, but then the conversation gets derailed by one of the characters bringing up something personal and they have to deal with that first and the other thing is never brought up again until it\u2019s too late to do anything about it and cue climax.\nAnd it does make sense that it would happen, given the kind of tension that these characters have, but it\u2019s also such an obvious distraction, the kind of thing that tends to take me out of a story because the answer to the question is conspicuous by its absence and in this case turns out to be a huge plot-point, and almost always is when this happens, so it\u2019s so easy to see through if you know what to look for \u2013 a self-fulfilling lampshade, if you will. A good story will be able to distract the reader so much by having them engage in what\u2019s going on with the characters that they may not mind at all, and to be fair this might be one of those cases, but still, on principle I am a little bit disappointed that I did this myself, especially since I don\u2019t think it was my intention. But then, in that case, I guess there\u2019s no point in blaming myself.\nOh dear. I wonder if I just committed a bit of a Deus ex Machina.\nThat\u2019s two! Two cliches I hate and yet am guilty of using myself, ah-ah-ah!\nAnd another Deus ex Machina \u2026 I mean it\u2019s technically foreshadowed, but it needs to be made more significant, even if I do want it to be a surprise twist thingy, because if it\u2019s just a surprise twist then it feels cheap, and is cheap. But if there\u2019s enough foreshadowing, even if it\u2019s very subtle (which is probably the best kind), then it\u2019ll feel like a payoff when it\u2019s finally revealed, and it will be a payoff.\nHmm, I think being sick is forcing me to be nice to myself. Which I do appreciate, I must admit. Gives me a different perspective on how I make notes. After all, constructive criticism is the best criticism, and really the only one I want to have to deal with, so I should probably hold myself to account in that regard as well.\nAh, character-arcs.\nI mean I\u2019m really steadfastly against the idea of making this book into a series. But it makes a lot of sense in a lot of ways, regarding what I want to show with characters and give them their turn in the spotlight. The reason I\u2019m against it, though, is that I honestly don\u2019t think there\u2019s quite enough there to make more than one satisfying self-contained story, and I much prefer self-contained stories, even as part of a series. Harry Potter is a good example of a series that does this well, with the exception of Half-Blood Prince, which is why it was my least-favourite when it first came out, whereas now it\u2019s tied equal-first with Azakaban and Hallows, because the series is finished and therefore counts as a self-contained story in and of itself. I had the same issue with Empire Strikes Back until I saw Return of the Jedi. And basically I don\u2019t want Tallulah to be a serial. It doesn\u2019t have to be, but again, I don\u2019t think there\u2019s enough story here to fill that much narrative space. So I guess my option is to cut down on some of the characters\u2019 roles.\n\u201cBack\u201d is a word that, if you use it enough times in succession, stops looking like a word. back back back back back back back back back it\u2019s like a sound more than an actual thing like something you\u2019d see in the old Batman show when they hit each other or something back back back back it\u2019s really ugly-looking too just that arrangement of those letters and the sound that it makes and ugh yuck\nIt\u2019s one thing to think up a soundtrack for your book. I mean I think plenty of writers do this, or at least have writing playlists and stuff if not for specific books. It\u2019s another thing entirely to want a specific cover of a specific song for a soundtrack for a specific book and to have that cover not actually exist and for it to make you just a tad more upset than it probably should.\nI mean seriously, it would be perfect. Like theme song perfect. Except that I\u2019ve already got a designated theme song.\nI tend not to listen to music while I\u2019m drafting, but revision is a different matter entirely. Music can be quite helpful while revising, just because it makes me feel less anxious. Having background music just kind of makes things more chill. It can still be intrusive, though, so one has to be careful.\nAnd i just spent like half an hour making a new playlist \u2026 I wish I could say that I\u2019m only feeling so distracted because I\u2019m sick and haven\u2019t slept in like 24 hours, but that would be a lie \u2026\nSo there\u2019s a lot of last-minute exposition going on in this chapter, which is not only last-minute because it\u2019s never been brought up before and is important to the plot, but also feels like last-minute exposition, like the kind you\u2019d find in a bad 80\u2019s fantasy film. Such as Krull, which I watched a review of today, and dear lord does it look horrible in terms of storytelling. Or like what I\u2019ve seen of that horrendous Earthsea miniseries, only with both of those examples the exposition is not last-minute, because it\u2019s spread out throughout the entire thing. Even in my first draft, let it be known, I managed to avoid what two big-budget productions could not, on my budget of patchy self-discipline and personal satisfaction. So that\u2019s pretty good.\nThere are scenes that are meant to be hectic and panicked and kind of thoughtless, and this chapter has a sequence where I felt the same way while I was writing it, more or less \u2013 it\u2019s a scene where Tallulah has to improvise, and I was improvising while I wrote it, so there was a feeling of synergy there. Now, reading back over it, it just seems like she\u2019s being a dunce. But perhaps that\u2019s just me being hyper-critical. Maybe it\u2019s fine. Maybe it works.\nOh Jenna Marbles. You so cray.\nUh, I mean, this chapter has some promising ideas that I can totally develop in draft 2. Which I am aware of, because I am totally paying attention to this revision. Which I have been doing for like four hours now.\n\u2026 I hate being sick \u2026\nWell, not bad. A lot of the issues with it are simply the last-minute feel of a lot of it, and then just some consistency problems. But I think almost every idea in that chapter would work great if I take the time to develop it.\nOnly one chapter to go. That\u2019s pretty rad.\nPosted in Writing While Writing.\tTagged consistency, revising a first draft, write a crappy first draft, writing\nAh, the second of two monologue chapters. I like the idea of these chapters, though I\u2019m not sure if they\u2019re a bit too disruptive \u2013 contrast is great, disruption is not. And it\u2019s rather short as well, so I may get two chapters done tonight. Let us begin \u2026\nWell, already there\u2019s an issue of voice, and while this is a first draft, for monologues voice is absolutely vital, so I\u2019ll be making notes on that. This is also where one of the core themes of the story is explored and applied very heavily, and I\u2019m very conscious of how I portray it with relation to what it says about gender norms. So this is going to be interesting to read.\nI suppose this actually counts as first-person POV, doesn\u2019t it \u2026 well, not entirely. It\u2019s a person speaking rather than thinking. Which is what I like about the idea of monologues \u2013 it\u2019s revelatory, but also biased. Another reason why voice is so important.\nHmm, this is such a loaded chapter. It\u2019s got so much going on \u2013 exposition (backstory), character-development (the mere act of the character divulging this information is a huge thing for them), and balancing driving the narrative forward by revealing this character\u2019s secret, which is vital to Tallulah\u2019s own story, and putting in character things \u2013 things that she would tell Tallulah just because she has the chance to speak to her now. I\u2019m not sure where the balance is here yet. A lot of it is stuff that isn\u2019t important to the story she\u2019s telling, but it\u2019s important to her as a character that she share this stuff with Tallulah, and that is obviously also important. Tricky.\nAlso, I know this is set in a fictional place, but it\u2019s definitely a fictional place in the real world. Dialect is something I\u2019ll have to think about. They\u2019re all saying \u2018Mum\u2019 instead of \u2018Mom\u2019, because that\u2019s what I say and \u2018Mom\u2019 just feels so unnatural to even type, let alone say, for me, but maybe I should pick a country and set this story there.\nNot New Zealand. Oh dear Horus not New Zealand.\nMaybe New Zealand. But I\u2019ll never mention it, and just have it in my mind, whatever country I decide to set this in.\nYeah. Knowing what to mention and what not to mention is another issue \u2013 even an offhanded mention of something, like a location, can raise questions that, if indeed raised, need to be answered for the sake of consistency. Same with the supernatural stuff.\nIt\u2019s always rather amusing when you run into something in your writing that you wrote on the spur of the moment, some little plot-twist or reveal that you never followed-up on. This one I like because, the way it\u2019s currently implemented, it\u2019s very ambiguous. Just something for people to think about. But that\u2019s also what I don\u2019t like about it, because I haven\u2019t made up my own mind about it, so it feels a bit disingenuous to leave it in there without an answer to give, even if I never give it.\nMan, I\u2019m having feels about my own book. MY OWN BOOK. This is weird.\nReally hope I\u2019m not alone there, haha \u2026\nThis character is getting perhaps the most quotable lines in the whole draft so far. I don\u2019t mind it. It\u2019s good, actually, given their significance to the story.\nI really am having horrible doubts now, though, about writing this character as a man. I mean there\u2019s still drafts to come after this, still time to get it right, but there\u2019s something \u2026 off about some of what this character is saying, the experience she\u2019s having. I can\u2019t tell if it\u2019s just the voice or if it is really just that I don\u2019t have the perspective necessary to talk about this at all. Hopefully one of my beta readers picked up on it, if there is indeed a problem and I\u2019m not just second-guessing myself for the umpteenth time.\nMaybe it\u2019s just that I\u2019ve left something out that is necessary to complete the picture. It does feel incomplete, her experience, now that I think about it.\nStupid gender identity. Why must you muddle the universality of human experience?\nThere are actually a few good moments of this character\u2019s voice coming through here. That\u2019s a heartening sign.\nOh WOW. Apparently I can write pretty damn believable male characters \u2026 oh that was delicious \u2026\nAnd apparently I can write believable relationships! Well, believable enough for me, anyway. We\u2019ll see what my beta readers have to say about that soon enough.\nWhat is also exciting me now is the idea of voice in monologues when the character delivering the monologue is speaking for another character. I mean that\u2019s always an interesting thing when it comes to voice, but with monologue in particular there\u2019s almost nothing but voice going on, so this could be very fun to play with in draft 2 \u2026\nAnd we end with yet another potential solution to certain structural issues I\u2019m having with the plot \u2013 I\u2019m not sure if it\u2019s quite what I want, but it would work. I do want to have a think about some other options too, though.\nHmm. Since then next chapter is so short \u2026 yeah. Why not. Let\u2019s do another!\nI\u2019ve mentioned before that sometimes when I try to write visceral, gritty, realistic dialogue or emotions it comes off as melodramatic, at least to me. I think part of it is to do with glorifying something \u2013 an emotion, an event, whatever \u2013 and I tend to do that a lot without really thinking about it. I think: \u2018I need this to really stand out and have impact and be significant and emotionally-charged\u2019, and while that\u2019s certainly true, at least some of the time it comes off as melodrama because it\u2019s so exaggerated, which is not the kind of significance I\u2019m going for at all. Probably a good point to keep in mind \u2026\nEmphasis being an issue again, but at least I identified the problem. And in the process found my way into better understanding Tallulah\u2019s character-arc throughout the story. Yay!\nWow, vitriol definitely runs in this family \u2026 I rather like it.\nAaand apparently I did actually address that emphasis issue! About three pages after the fact, but hey, awesome to see that past-self was onto it \u2026\nAnd after having come up with all of those \u2018solutions\u2019 to issues with the plot and how the story is structured, I find a single paragraph that makes almost just as strong an argument for keeping things pretty much exactly as they are. I mean it would still work if it was moved around, so that\u2019s good. It\u2019s good to have more than one option.\nI mean it\u2019s ridiculously frustrating as well. But good.\nAnd we close off this chapter with yet more fleshing-out of character-arc stuff, and yet more self-inflicted feels. I am becoming quite the fan of my own work.\nTwo chapters to go. The next one is the Big One \u2013 the climax! Where everything goes down, and I introduce a whole bunch of stuff that was never mentioned before and only very vaguely alluded to like once ages ago and then never brought up again and it ends up feeling kind of like a Deus ex Machina, but whatever it\u2019s a first draft! And then the one after that is actually also a pretty long chapter, and it\u2019s the wrap-up, and I remember distinctly getting quite Mary Sue-ish again in that one. But I\u2019m still excited. I\u2019ll be done before the weekend.\nI\u2019LL ACTUALLY HAVE MADE REVISION NOTES ON A WHOLE FIRST DRAFT MANUSCRIPT YOU GUYS THIS IS SO NEW FOR ME I DON\u2019T EVEN KNOW WHAT TO DO YOU GUYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYSSSSSSSSSSSS\nSo yeah, looking forward to it.\nPosted in Writing While Writing.\tTagged finding a character's voice, putting all the pieces together, revising a first draft, solving writing problems with writing, writing",

        "raw_content": "Is Organic Worth It?\nWhen you head to the grocery store, shopping for products like eggs, meat, fish, milk, and produce can be very tricky. Signs are posted everywhere labeling food as natural, organic, and a number of other things\u2014but what\u2019s the difference, really? Learning what specific names mean can help you decide if you should shell out extra money on a product of it is simply a marketing ploy.\nNatural is a turn associated with a number of fruit and vegetable product. Typically, this is simple a marketing ploy to convince you to buy the product. After all, all fruits and vegetables are natural, right? Unless it\u2019s a new kind of food that has been developed and processed, the product is natural. What you really probably want is organic. Organic foods are grown without chemical pesticides and fertilizers. There are two main benefits to organic foods. First, you are helping the environment because those chemicals are not being introduced into nature. Secondly, you are avoiding ingesting chemicals and are therefore healthy more healthy foods. However, organic products are usually more expensive. If you\u2019re on a budget, skip over organic fruits and vegetables that you can peel, like oranges and bananas. After all, once you\u2019ve discarded the peel, you\u2019ve also discarded the chemicals. Instead, opt for organic items like apples, where you eat the peel. No matter what you buy, however, make sure that you rinse off the food when you get home.\nAnother tricky label you will see is \u201cno hormones.\u201d This is usually in regards to milk or meat products and is false, since all animals naturally produce hormones. Hormones are what helps an animal (even a human) regulate body organs, have young, and otherwise function. All meat products have hormones. What the labels really mean is that no hormones were unnaturally given to the animal, which is sometimes done to increase milk production. Regardless of hormones, however, the milk and meat is safe for a person and not a violation of an animal\u2019s rights.\nLastly, a label on eggs and meat can indicate if the animal was caged or penned. This does not make a difference in the quality or nutritional value of the meat, but is simply a matter of animal rights. These products may be a bit more expensive, but if you want to make human decisions, that is the way to go. Reading the label and making healthy choices can sometimes be difficult, but learning how to do so can help you make the best choices for you diet.\nFoodOrganicOrganic Food",

        "raw_content": "Indian Valley Open Space Preserve\nIndian Valley Open Space Preserve is a popular outdoor destination that offers a multitude of hiking trails suitable for all abilities, and is accessible from Ignacio Boulevard at the Indian Valley College campus or Indian Valley Road.\nThe main path is a level fire road that winds along the valley floor following a small seasonal creek with lots of shade provided by live oak and bay trees. It is an easy, flat three-quarter mile walk from the college campus to Indian Valley Road (or vice versa), which makes it ideal for those seeking a leisurely stroll. Dogs are allowed on leash. Bikes are permitted only on the fire road.\nSeveral smaller single-track trails (Buzzard\u2019s Burn, Waterfall) branch off the main fire road and climb into the surrounding hills through wooded chaparral, providing lovely views of the surrounding valleys. Spring rains bring rushing water to the creeks and waterfalls in this area. These trails are best suited to those desiring a moderate to rigorous workout. All routes eventually loop back to the main fire road. Free roadside parking is available at the Indian Valley Road entrance.",

I lost sleep because I so wanted to continue to do things with the freedom I was used to that I couldn\u2019t stand it. It got really bad, so I resigned.\nLeaving that project has left me with something I\u2019m not sure what to do with\u2013free time. Now I\u2019m doubly awe-struck by the shock of having time on my hands. It\u2019s the biggest challenge I\u2019ve faced\u2014ever.\nI\u2019m always busy.

I know retirees who are loving their freedom; I\u2019m having panic attacks. What do people do when they have options? I\u2019m practicing mindfulness, reading about living in the present moment, and taking supplements to calm me down. (Magnesium has been recommended and seems to help.) I\u2019m watching what I eat, exercising, and trying to comprehend a dilemma I never thought I would have to face.

        "title": "REVIEW: Still Serving \"Old-School\" Disney At Hoop-Dee-Doo Musical Revue - WDW News Today",
        "raw_content": "REVIEW: Still Serving \u201cOld-School\u201d Disney At Hoop-Dee-Doo Musical Revue\nHoop-Dee-Doo Musical Revue is one of three dinner shows presented at Walt Disney World. This show takes place at Disney\u2019s Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground at Pioneer Hall, located near the back of the resort at a location called Settlement. Getting here can be a little bit of a hassle. From Magic Kingdom, take a boat from the launches in front of the park for a quick ride. From every other resort, quickest way would be to get a ride to a theme park and then bus back to Fort Wilderness. If you\u2019re driving, you\u2019ll need to park in the front of the resort and take a bus to the back. A little bit of effort, but the entertainment and food is well worth it.\nHoop-Dee-Doo is one of the longest running dinner shows in America since its opening in 1974. Mostly untouched since its incarnation, the show skirts the fine line between Disney-corny and adult humor that flies over the kids\u2019 heads. It\u2019s a great show that really feels like something special. You walk out happy, full, and wanting to come back for seconds.\nThere are three seatings daily for the popular dinner show: 4:00PM, 6:15PM, 8:30PM. Doors don\u2019t open until right at that time, but you can arrive 15 minutes early and pick-up your table ticket to ease the process. There\u2019s also three categories to choose from when booking. Prices fluctuate with the year, but Category 1 is the most expensive, Category 3 the least. Category 1 will guarantee you a first floor, front and center view of the stage. Category 2 fills in the back and sides of the first floor (with some elevated tables in the back to allow better viewing) and a few tables on the second level. Category 3 is pure upstairs, which isn\u2019t a bad thing because the performers make a point to include this area continuously in the performance.\nWe ended up with Category 2 seating, which was just a few dollars more than Category 3, and we ended up very close to the stage. Upon entering the massive hall, a seater will direct you to your table which already has salad and cornbread ready to eat. Both are absolutely great, but don\u2019t fill up on cornbread (as tempting as it seems) because the main courses come a bit later.\nYour server will greet you soon after and get your drink order. Coke products are available, as well as a house red wine, house white wine, red and white sangria, Bud Lite and Yuengling beers. Yes, these alcohols are included in the price and yes, they\u2019re unlimited. We had a large party, so after a few pints our server ended up bringing pitchers of beer. These servers have been here a LONG time and won\u2019t over-serve, so enjoy a few glasses and don\u2019t make it a goal to get trashed.\nNow is also the time to bring up any dietary concerns and allergies. They are VERY accommodating for vegetarian, vegan, and many allergies, so don\u2019t be afraid to ask.\nThe show begins with the Pioneer Hall Players being let off from a stage coach in front of the building and barging their way into the building. There\u2019s six performers and a live band: piano and banjo player. Introductions begin, the crowd gets involved in a few songs, and the entire atmosphere warms up before entrees and sides are served.\nHere\u2019s where the real fun begins. Buckets of ribs and chicken are slammed down at tables. Sides of corn and mashed potatoes and cowboy beans are also served. For a vegetarian option, we were given a full salmon, and the vegan option was a spectacular wagon wheel pasta. There\u2019s mac and cheese on the kids menu, and if you\u2019re nice to your server, you may be able to swing a bowl of it. Everything was really amazing, and it\u2019s bottomless, so don\u2019t be shy to ask for a second (or third) bucket of chicken and ribs.\nThe show will continue as you\u2019re finishing up dinner with more songs and comedy, and it\u2019s a very good show that doesn\u2019t drag. Actually, when it ends, you\u2019re sad and feel like it flew by. Dessert is served next and it comes with its own song and dance including all the servers! It\u2019s ma\u2019s Strawberry Shortcake! It\u2019s even better than it looks: layers of soft airy cake and house made whipped cream.\nEnding the performance is The Ballad of Davy Crockett, which has audience participation and some guests are pulled on stage. If you don\u2019t want to participate, that\u2019s perfectly fine, the performers will move on to find someone else, so don\u2019t feel pressured.\nWe feel there\u2019s significant value to be found here. Alone, the show is spectacular and well worth at least half the cost. The bottomless chicken, ribs, and sides are wonderful as well, but you can find the same exact fare at Trail\u2019s End buffet next door for a fraction of the cost. You won\u2019t find the strawberry shortcake there, however.\nUnlimited wines, sangria, and beer also bring the value of the dinner show way up. If you would drink a few beers or glasses of sangria at another restaurant at Disney they would run $8-$10 each, so being able to enjoy a few glasses is well worth it. Overall, it\u2019s one of the last pieces of \u201cold school\u201d Disney left at Walt Disney World and we feel that the price validated the entertainment and food. We knew what we were getting ourselves into and enjoyed every second of it, and so will you.\nTagsDisney Dining Hoop Dee Doo Disney food Disney's Fort Wilderness dinner show #hoopdeedoo\nHollywood Studios Appreciation Week Starts Today, Join Us for Special Events, Shows, and More!\nDisney Research Designs Robotic Arm Closely Resembling Baymax",

        "title": "The grisaille technique is a kind of painting. Grisaille painting: description and features",
        "raw_content": "The grisaille technique is a kind of painting. Grisaille painting: description and features\nthe Lovers of painting and drawing lessons are probably familiar with this concept, as a grisaille. This is one of the most famous techniques that allow the artists as much detail as possible to capture the sculptural and architectural elements. Read more about this art form we will describe below.\nGeneral information about the concept\nthe Grisaille \u2013 a kind of painting, which is traditionally performed using one color with its tonal variations. Originally this technique was conceived as a tool allowing detail to show the embossed figure. Later it was used as a visual image, modern decor in the interior. In particular, it was indispensable for designers, because it helps to make the estimated models three-dimensional and realistic. Later grisaille technique began to be used in the design. For example, paintings of different decor items created using this style, have become an integral part of any interior.\nthat a similar technique?\nUsing this technique, artists tried to accurately capture the three-dimensional image. So the picture turned out very realistic. According to experts, all the details are so clearly passed down that they are almost impossible to distinguish from real sculptures and relief figures. If you compare these paintings with modern trends in painting, they clearly have a lot in common with figures in 3D style.\nWhere was used?\nsome time Later, the grisaille technique was used in the so-called easel painting. But here this art had to fulfill only a minor role. In most cases, it was used as an auxiliary tool. For example, it created a variety of sketches, layouts, and even make the scale of buildings and structures.\nonly many years later it was decided to separate the grisaille from easel painting, to move it to a separate group of fine art. During the glorious era of the Baroque, grisaille (a painting technique) played an important role in the creation of various architectural bas-reliefs. For example, some elements of this unusual techniques were on the ceilings and walls of the Hermitage. There they are on the wall of the Jordan staircase. The actual elements of the art of grisaille was used in the manufacture of human statues under the arches, while creating the carved effect wall and atrium.\nExamples of the art of painting\nOne bright sample pictures created this technique, is a painting \u201cthe Preaching of John the Baptist\" once written by Rembrandt. Now it is in the Berlin state Museum. Used the grisaille painting of the famous Spanish artist and sculptor Pablo Picasso. For example, it is this technique he used in his \"Guernica\".\nRecall that this painting was created by the author at the personal request of the authorities of the Spanish Republic. It was first presented at the Paris world fair. The jacket is made in black and white colors with elements of cubism. It captures one of the saddest events that occurred during the civil war in Spain, \u2013 the bombardment of the city.\nKnown color variations\ntypically, the grisaille is only one or two colors, most often white brown or black-and-white shade. Even earlier, as the services of this art form, used so-called Sepia. It was a special dye, which can be obtained by applying the ink bag of the cuttlefish are marine.\nSepia was mainly interested in artists until the 18th century. Over time, the palette began to dominate the reddish tones. Modern masters use any color and shade, is able to convey the original author's idea of the artist. For example, it can be work with lilac, gray or brown. In addition, during the application of the technique grisaille allowed to use special artistic whitewash.\nWhy it is so important to master this technique?\nAs a grisaille-a painting based on the transmission of tones with the shadows, light and color, it is recommended to thoroughly examine the budding artists. As they say experienced painters, to define a palette of items is easy. But you clearly see how one object is lighter or darker than the other \u2013 it's real art.\nin addition, the use of this amazing technology enables to build the correct tone scale. And this is done when using the singular tone of the scale, consisting of about 5, 7, or 9 semitones. All this can be learn, learning to paint in the style of grisaille. And only after learning this technique should move on to the use of multi-color watercolor.\nDrawing (grisaille): varieties\nThis type of technology can be divided into two varieties: artistic and educational. In particular, the first allows you to create incredible three-dimensional paintings with the help of colorful paints. But the last option is or fat pencil or charcoal. By the way, a training technique used when creating basic sketches, to which are applied various shades of color.\nit is believed that using the grisaille can break conditional form (on paper) for several types of surfaces. It can be side, top pruning and frontal image. However, some craftsmen during training sessions artists-newcomers prefer to do the grisaille watercolor (plain). Other, in addition to it, try to use acrylic, oil or tempera. It is also recommended to apply the ink, the liquid solution of the carcasses or Sepia.\nIdeal option in this case would use three tones of colors, which are selected according to their colour intensity or saturation. And the first of them, as a rule, used in the callout of the shadows coming from the objects, the following \u2013 to highlight the midtones, and the last \u2013 to display bright highlights and light areas of the displayed objects.\nTraining grisaille technique you should start with traditional and simple still life productions. It is noteworthy that in their compilation it is best to use the most common models and items. For example, it may be the plate of fruit, flower vase or any object from household items. And then you can move on to more complex elements, such as figures of people.\nDrawing in the style of grisaille as follows:\nit Is a pencil sketch.\nApply a light coat of paint - just a few touches, except for light areas of objects.\nafter drying, the student must find the picture of the shadow. He paints them on a darker tone.\nAfter drying the designated places with the undertones.\nIn the final stages of the brighter tones stand out the most light and glare.\nit is believed that after several such sessions, the students developed a sense of consistency in the work. In short, the grisaille is considered the first step on the ladder of the greatest of modern painting.\nAmerican artist Georgia O'keeffe (Georgia O'keeffe): paintings, biography\nCreate a notebook on the rings hardcover",

They are native to. Southeastern Afghanistan, Western India, Pakistan, Iraq, and Iran. They live in long, wide tanks with a range of different substrates. Ours at the center has a sand substrate. Their natural habitat is Southeastern Afghanistan, Western India, Pakistan, Iraq, and Iran. Typically, in semi-deserts and barren grasslands.\nThese reptiles eat live insects like crickets that have been dusted with reptile dust. They eat once a week and can be treated to superworms every so often. In the wild they eat large spiders and centipedes. Their predators are snakes, frogs, foxes and other large reptiles. They help the environment by eating insects.\nLeopard Geckos will be able 6.5-8.4 centimeters long. They have small bumps on their dorsal side(back) that gives a rough texture while their underside is smooth. They have moveable eyelids and feel very felt-like. Their tails are larger because they store fat. They have long, slim legs that hold them up when they run. When shedding they eat the dead skin after to get the vitamins from it, leaving no skin behind.\nThey can live up to 10 years and are not endangered due to not having many natural predators. They are hatched then turn into young geckos which turn into adult geckos. They only lay eggs when they feel it is the right time and breed through January- September. Females are typically not mature until they are 9 months old. They lay a clutch every 15-22 days through a four month period and one to two eggs each time.\nWhile we are in the classroom our gecko is usually asleep because they are nocturnal.

        "title": "Car Accident Lawyer in Dunwoody GA | Millions Recovered $$$",
        "raw_content": "Dunwoody Car Accident Lawyer\nHiring a Trusted Car Accident Lawyer in Dunwoody, Georgia\nOne of the gravest consequences of a car accident is the physical and psychological trauma that anyone will have to endure, possibly for an extended period of time.\nIn the worst of cases, a car accident may result in a significantly reduced quality of life and even wrongful death.\nFor you to fully recover from accident-related injuries, it is important to get access to the right medical attention, rehabilitation, and maintenance medications. You may also recover for damages by way of a compensation claim if your injuries were the result of a negligent driver.\nThis is why you need the services of a dedicated car accident lawyer in Dunwoody, Georgia.\nWith the help of a car accident attorney, you can seek for compensation on both financial and emotional losses and start rebuilding your life at the earliest time possible.\nWhat Car Accident Lawyers Know About Car Collision Statistics in Dunwoody, Georgia\nTraffic-related deaths in the country jumped from 35,485 to 37, 461 in 2015 and 2016 respectively, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). The topmost reason for these traffic-related deaths is driver overspeeding, which accounted for 18.1% of all fatal accident causes.\nThis increase in crash fatalities is paralleled by traffic death statistics in the state of Georgia, which showed an 8.5% increase in vehicle collision deaths at 1,432 in 2015 to 1,554 in 2016. This translates to 15 fatalities for every population of 100,000 individuals in the state. Additionally, there were a significant number of fatalities in 2015 compared to 2014, at 1,164 traffic-related deaths.\nCommon Car Accidents\nDue to the varied circumstances surrounding a collision or crash, car accidents often happen in a number of ways. There are collisions that do not pose serious risks to drivers and properties, while some car accidents result in critical injuries, trauma, and even death. Regardless of the type of accident, you find yourself in, you need the counsel of trusted car accident lawyers.\nA car accident attorney in Georgia will have encountered the following types of car accidents in some of their past cases:\nSideswipe collisions\nSide-impact vehicle crashes\nSingle-car crashes\nIn any motor vehicle accident, one of the challenges confronting a car accident lawyer is establishing liability in the at-fault driver. Proof of negligence becomes especially important if the state operates on comparative negligence laws.\nIn a comparative negligence ruling, the amount that a plaintiff is able to recover for damages is directly affected by his/her contributory negligence. It is crucial for any car wreck lawyer to collect sufficient evidence, as means to establish the negligence of the other driver.\nThe causes of car accidents are as varied as the many types of vehicle crashes reported in Georgia and in other states. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the most common cause of fatal crashes in the country for 2015 is driver overspeeding.\nA dedicated car accident lawyer in Dunwoody, Georgia will have had experience dealing with various traffic collision causes such as:\nDriving under the influence. Also known as DUI, driving under the influence of an impairing substance (such as alcohol or drugs), is one of the most serious driving offenses in the state of Georgia. The at-fault driver charged with DUI could be facing both license suspension and criminal conviction.\nFailure to maintain use of proper lane while driving. This negligent action is a common cause of car accidents. If the other driver is found to be fully at-fault for the accident, your car accident lawyer can work on your full compensation either through settlement or litigation.\nFailure to yield. An important traffic rule is for vehicles to yield to a bicyclist on a bicycle lane or to maintain a safe distance against a large vehicle, such as a bus or a truck. If another vehicle is proven to have been negligent in this regard, your car accident attorney can start obtaining evidence on this negligence to strengthen your accident compensation claim.\nDistracted driving. Most states prohibit texting, eating, or any kind of distracting activity while driving. Any driver who violates these rules and ends up hurting another driver in a collision can be held liable according to state laws. Your car wreck lawyer may argue for this negligent act of the at-fault driver when seeking for compensation in Georgia.\nObscured vision. Impaired or obscured vision while driving is often caused by rain, heavy snow, or lack of proper signage on public road and highways. Obscured vision may cause single-vehicle accidents or multiple-vehicle collisions, depending on specific circumstances. Some cases may also involve a DUI offense. For this, your car accident lawyer should be committed enough to be able to obtain needed evidence.\nDrowsy or fatigued drivers. Lack of sleep or fatigue is also one of the strong causes of traffic-related deaths all over the country. Depending on the laws operating within the state, car accident lawyers may work out a compensation claim against the driver\u2019s insurance company or against the driver\u2019s employer, especially in the case of trucks and commercial buses.\nCompensation Claims through the Help of a Car Accident Lawyer in Dunwoody, GA\nIf you have been hurt in a car accident in Georgia, you have the right to seek for compensation from the at-fault driver and his or her insurance company. It is important for you and your car wreck lawyer to establish the full liability or the significant negligence of the other driver. Depending on state laws, the amount that you will receive as compensation may be reduced by the percentage of your shared liability in the accident.\nIn the state of Georgia, vehicle drivers are required to obtain car liability insurance, in the event that they figure in an accident for which they have been the negligent party. The minimum amount that a driver in Georgia should carry for liability insurance per person is $25,000. For multiple parties, the amount is at $50,000, while property damage is mandated at a minimum amount of $25,000.\nSince all drivers are required by state laws to carry liability insurance coverage, the negligent driver has the responsibility to pay a compensatory amount through his or her insurance carrier. It is thus crucial for a car accident lawyer to explain the types of damages that you will be allowed to recover the compensation amount.\nA car accident attorney may help you recover for damages to compensate for the following:\nMedical expenses. Traffic collision injuries can range from simple bruises to fractured bones and spinal cord injuries. Some symptoms, such as post-traumatic headaches, may persist for a prolonged period of time. It is crucial for your car accident lawyer to factor your medical costs into the compensation amount, including present and future medical needs.\nVehicle damage and repairs. You may also be able to recover for property damage either from your own insurance company or the insurance carrier of the at-fault driver.\nLoss of present and future wages. After a traffic accident, you may be required by your physician to refrain from working in order to fully recover. However, this may translate to significant income losses on your part as you recover from your injuries.\nWith the help of your car accident lawyer, you can factor these losses into the compensation or a settlement proposal against a negligent party.\nPain and suffering. Not all losses after a car accident are economic in nature. Additionally, many individuals suffer from a significantly reduced quality of life after an accident. If the crash has resulted in your extreme suffering and the pain of your loved ones, you may also seek for this kind of compensation, whether through settlement or in court.\nFurthermore, if evidence is sufficient to prove the malicious intent of the at-fault party in a vehicular crash, your car accident lawyer may also sue for punitive damages in a criminal court.\nSettlement vs. Lawsuit: Which is the Better Action to Take in Dunwoody, GA?\nOnce compensation matters are discussed, you and your car wreck lawyer may decide whether to agree to a settlement or to proceed to a lawsuit.\nBoth options have their pros and cons; thus, it is crucial for car accident lawyers to advise you into taking an option that will be more advantageous to you, given your unique situation.\nA settlement is an option that allows you to obtain compensation without having to deal with the complex procedures of a court trial. In a settlement, the at-fault parties and their insurance carrier discuss a settlement amount with you and your car accident attorney. You may benefit from a settlement if the proposed amount is appropriate enough to take care of all damages due to the accident.\nOne clear advantage to a settlement, according to most car accident lawyers, is that it saves the plaintiff from a lengthy trial process. A court trial may extend to long months and years without the guarantee of a positive outcome. If you and your car wreck lawyer are looking for a way for you to recover at an earlier time, a settlement may be an ideal decision to make.\nNonetheless, some settlements may not prove to be very helpful on the whole. There are cases where the at-fault party will attempt to downplay the damages which have resulted from the accident. Or, they may counter accusations regarding their own negligence and full liability in the accident.\nContributory negligence often affects the compensation amount, and this may leave any claimant with a significantly lower amount. If your car accident attorney believes that your case is worth more than what the other party is settling for, it may be wiser to proceed to litigation.\nWhy You Need No Less than a Committed Car Accident Lawyer in Georgia\nThere are many reasons why you need the help of a car accident attorney as soon as after the occurrence of a traffic collision.\nIn fact, even if you feel relatively fine after an accident, the counsel of a car wreck lawyer is still paramount. You may not know it yet, but you could be suffering from post-traumatic injuries. These injuries show delayed symptoms and may require intensive medical care. When this happens, you wouldn\u2019t want to bear all the medical burdens on your own.\nA good car accident lawyer will fight for your compensation against any negligent party in Dunwoody, GA.\nIn addition to the possibility of post-traumatic conditions, another reason why you will require the help of a car accident attorney is that any legal action taken against an erring party may operate through specific deadlines and documentary requirements. In many states, plaintiffs will be given only up to two years to file accident claims.\nIf you\u2019re planning to go to trial, moreover, you will need access to police reports, medical documents, and other crucial types of evidence. A committed car accident lawyer can help you keep track of deadlines and other required submissions while pursuing legal action.\nNot least among the reasons is the fact that state laws will vary, and who you need is a car wreck lawyer that understands Georgia state laws. Various states have different laws on negligence, which should be proven in the at-fault party if you want to recover a full amount for compensation.\nYour car accident lawyer should be able and willing to help you establish negligence, so you need not settle for the least amount as recovery for damages.\nGet in Touch with a Car Accident Lawyer in Dunwoody, GA\nThere is no reason why you should be the one to bear the burden of a negligent driver\u2019s actions. If you or a loved one has been involved in a car accident in Georgia, it is important that you seek the counsel of car accident lawyers straight away.\nTalk to us at the The Weinstein Firm so a car wreck lawyer can start working on your accident compensation claim in Dunwoody, Georgia as early as today.",

A follow-up to The Art of Tim Burton, entitled The Napkin Art of Tim Burton: Things You Think About in a Bar, containing sketches made by Burton in napkins at bars and restaurants he occasionally visits, was released in 2015.\n\u272a The Making of Edward Scissorhands (Behind the Scenes) - Tim Burton\n2\u2005Early\u2005career:\u20051980s\n2.1\u2005Pee-wee's\u2005Big\u2005Adventure\n2.2\u2005Beetlejuice\n2.3\u2005Batman\n3\u20051990s\n3.1\u2005Edward\u2005Scissorhands\n3.2\u2005Batman\u2005Returns\n3.3\u2005The\u2005Nightmare\u2005Before\u2005Christmas\n3.4\u2005Cabin\u2005Boy\n3.5\u2005Ed\u2005Wood\n3.6\u2005Batman\u2005Forever\n3.7\u2005James\u2005and\u2005the\u2005Giant\u2005Peach\n3.8\u2005Mars\u2005Attacks!\n3.9\u2005Superman\u2005Lives\n3.10\u2005Sleepy\u2005Hollow\n4.1\u2005Planet\u2005of\u2005the\u2005Apes\n4.2\u2005Big\u2005Fish\n4.3\u2005Charlie\u2005and\u2005the\u2005Chocolate\u2005Factory\n4.4\u2005Corpse\u2005Bride\n4.5\u2005The\u2005Killers\n4.6\u2005Sweeney\u2005Todd:\u2005The\u2005Demon\u2005Barber\u2005of\u2005Fleet\u2005Street\n4.7\u20059\n5.1\u2005Alice\u2005in\u2005Wonderland\n5.2\u2005Dark\u2005Shadows\n5.3\u2005Abraham\u2005Lincoln:\u2005Vampire\u2005Hunter\n5.4\u2005Frankenweenie\n5.5\u2005Big\u2005Eyes\n5.6\u2005Alice\u2005Through\u2005the\u2005Looking\u2005Glass\n5.7\u2005Miss\u2005Peregrine's\u2005Home\u2005for\u2005Peculiar\u2005Children\n5.8\u2005Dumbo\n5.9\u2005Future\u2005projects\n6\u2005Unrealized\u2005projects\n8\u2005Fandom\n9\u2005Frequent\u2005collaborators\n10\u2005Exhibitions\n12\u2005Awards\n12.1\u2005Academy\u2005Awards\n12.2\u2005Golden\u2005Globe\u2005Awards\n12.3\u2005BAFTA\u2005Awards\n12.4\u2005Saturn\u2005Awards\n12.5\u2005Other\u2005awards\n13\u2005Awards\u2005received\u2005by\u2005Burton\u2005films\n14\u2005Reception\n15\u2005Books\nBurton was born in 1958, in Burbank,\u2005California, the son of Jean Burton (n\u00e9e Erickson), later the owner of a cat-themed gift shop, and William \"Bill\" Burton, a former minor league baseball player who was working for the Burbank Parks and Recreation Department.[2][3] As a preteen, Burton would make short films in his backyard on Evergreen Street using crude stop\u2005motion animation techniques or shoot them on 8 mm film without sound (one of his oldest known juvenile films is The\u2005Island\u2005of\u2005Doctor\u2005Agor, which he made when he was 13 years old). Burton attended Providencia Elementary School in Burbank. Burton went to Burbank\u2005High\u2005School, but he was not a particularly good student. He played on the water polo team at Burbank High. Burton was an introspective person and found pleasure in painting, drawing and watching movies. His future work would be heavily influenced by the works of such childhood heroes as Dr.\u2005Seuss and Roald\u2005Dahl.[4] After graduating from Burbank High School, Burton attended the California\u2005Institute\u2005of\u2005the\u2005Arts in Valencia,\u2005California, to study character\u2005animation.[5] As a student at CalArts, Burton made the shorts Stalk\u2005of\u2005the\u2005Celery\u2005Monster and King and Octopus.[6]\nEarly career: 1980s\nStalk of the Celery Monster attracted the attention of Walt\u2005Disney\u2005Productions'\u2005animation\u2005division, which offered Burton an animator's apprenticeship at the studio.[5] He worked as an animator, storyboard artist and concept\u2005artist on films such as The\u2005Fox\u2005and\u2005the\u2005Hound (1981), Tron (1982) and The\u2005Black\u2005Cauldron (1985). His concept art never made it into the finished films.\nWhile at Disney in 1982, Burton made his first short, Vincent, a six-minute black-and-white stop\u2005motion film based on a poem written by the filmmaker, and depicting a young boy who fantasizes that he is his hero Vincent\u2005Price, with Price himself providing narration. The film was produced by Rick\u2005Heinrichs, whom Burton had befriended while working in the concept art department at Disney. The film was shown at the Chicago Film Festival and released, alongside the teen drama Tex, for two weeks in one Los Angeles cinema. This was followed by Burton's first live-action production Hansel\u2005and\u2005Gretel, a Japanese-themed adaptation of the Brothers\u2005Grimm fairy\u2005tale for the Disney\u2005Channel, which climaxes in a kung\u2005fu fight between Hansel and Gretel and the witch. Having aired once in 1983 at 10:30 pm on Halloween and promptly shelved, prints of the film are extremely difficult to locate, fueling rumors that the project did not exist. The short would finally go on public display in 2009 at the Museum\u2005of\u2005Modern\u2005Art, and again in 2011 as part of the Tim Burton art exhibit at LACMA.[7][8] It was again shown at the Seoul\u2005Museum\u2005of\u2005Art in 2012.[9]\nBurton's next live-action short, Frankenweenie, was released in 1984. It tells the story of a young boy who tries to revive his dog after it is run over by a car. Filmed in black-and-white, it stars Barret\u2005Oliver, Shelley\u2005Duvall (with whom he would work again in 1986, directing an episode of her Faerie\u2005Tale\u2005Theatre) and Daniel\u2005Stern. After Frankenweenie was completed, Disney fired Burton, under the pretext of him spending the company's resources on doing a film that would be too dark and scary for children to see.[10]\nMain article: Pee-wee's\u2005Big\u2005Adventure\nActor Paul\u2005Reubens saw Vincent[when?] and chose Burton to direct the cinematic spin-off of his popular character Pee-wee\u2005Herman. Pee-wee Herman gained mainstream popularity with a successful stage show at The\u2005Groundlings and the\u2005Roxy which was later turned into an HBO\u2005special. The film, Pee-wee's\u2005Big\u2005Adventure, was made on a budget of $8 million and grossed more than $40 million at the North American box office. Burton, a fan of the eccentric musical group Oingo\u2005Boingo, asked songwriter Danny\u2005Elfman to provide the music for the film. Since then, Elfman has scored every film that Tim Burton has directed, except for Ed\u2005Wood (because of a falling out that they had[11]), Sweeney\u2005Todd:\u2005The\u2005Demon\u2005Barber\u2005of\u2005Fleet\u2005Street (because the music was based on Stephen\u2005Sondheim's musical) and Miss\u2005Peregrine's\u2005Home\u2005for\u2005Peculiar\u2005Children.\nMain article: Beetlejuice\nAfter directing episodes for the revitalized\u2005version of '50s/'60s anthology horror series Alfred\u2005Hitchcock\u2005Presents and Shelley\u2005Duvall's Faerie\u2005Tale\u2005Theatre, Burton directed his next big project: Beetlejuice (1988), a supernatural comedy\u2005horror about a young couple forced to cope with life after death, and the family of pretentious yuppies who invade their treasured New England home. Their teenage daughter Lydia (Winona\u2005Ryder) has an obsession with death which allows her to see the deceased couple. Starring Alec\u2005Baldwin and Geena\u2005Davis, and featuring Michael\u2005Keaton as the obnoxious bio-exorcist Beetlejuice, the film grossed $80 million on a relatively low budget and won an Academy\u2005Award for Best\u2005Makeup. It would be converted into a cartoon\u2005of\u2005the\u2005same\u2005name, with Burton playing a role as executive producer, that ran on ABC and later Fox.\nMain article: Batman\u2005(1989\u2005film)\nBurton's ability to produce hits with low budgets impressed studio executives, and he received his first big budget film, Batman. The production was plagued with problems. Burton repeatedly clashed with the film's producers, Jon\u2005Peters and Peter\u2005Guber, but the most notable debacle involved casting. For the title role, Burton chose to cast Michael Keaton as Batman following their previous collaboration in Beetlejuice, despite Keaton's average physique, inexperience with action films, and reputation as a comic actor. Although Burton won in the end, the furor over the casting provoked enormous fan animosity, to the extent that Warner Brothers' share price slumped.[citation\u2005needed] Burton had considered it ridiculous to cast a \"bulked-up\" ultra-masculine man as Batman, insisting that Batman should be an ordinary man who dressed up in an elaborate bat costume to frighten criminals. Burton cast Jack\u2005Nicholson as The\u2005Joker (Tim\u2005Curry being his second choice) in a move that helped assuage fans' fears, as well as attracting older audiences not as interested in a superhero\u2005film.[citation\u2005needed]\nWhen the film opened in June 1989, it was backed by the biggest marketing and merchandising campaign in film history at the time, and became one of the biggest box office hits of all time, grossing over US$250 million in the U.S. and $400 million worldwide (numbers not adjusted for inflation) and earning critical acclaim for the performances of both Keaton and Nicholson, as well as the film's production aspects, which won the Academy\u2005Award for Best\u2005Art\u2005Direction. The success of the film helped establish Burton as a profitable director, and it proved to be a huge influence on future superhero films, which eschewed the bright, all-American heroism of Richard\u2005Donner's Superman for a grimmer, more realistic look and characters with more psychological depth. It also became a major inspiration for the successful 1990s cartoon Batman:\u2005The\u2005Animated\u2005Series, in as much as the darkness of the picture and its sequel allowed for a darker Batman on television.\nBurton claimed that the graphic novel Batman:\u2005The\u2005Killing\u2005Joke was a major influence on his film adaptation of Batman:\nI was never a giant comic book fan, but I've always loved the image of Batman and the Joker. The reason I've never been a comic book fan \u2013 and I think it started when I was a child \u2013 is because I could never tell which box I was supposed to read. I don't know if it was dyslexia or whatever, but that's why I loved The Killing Joke, because for the first time I could tell which one to read. It's my favorite. It's the first comic I've ever loved. And the success of those graphic novels made our ideas more acceptable.[12]\nMain article: Edward\u2005Scissorhands\nIn 1990, Burton co-wrote (with Caroline\u2005Thompson) and directed Edward Scissorhands, re-uniting with Winona Ryder from Beetlejuice. His friend Johnny\u2005Depp, a teen idol at the end of the 1980s due primarily to his work on the hit TV series 21\u2005Jump\u2005Street, was cast in the title role of Edward, who was the creation of an eccentric and old-fashioned inventor (played by Vincent\u2005Price in one of his last screen appearances). Edward looked human, but was left with scissors in the place of hands due to the untimely death of his creator. Set in suburbia (and shot in Lakeland,\u2005Florida), the film is largely seen as Burton's autobiography of his childhood in Burbank. Burton's idea[13] for the character of Edward Scissorhands came from a drawing he created in high school. Depp wrote a similar comment in the foreword to Mark Salisbury's book, Burton on Burton, regarding his first meeting with Burton over the casting of the film. Edward Scissorhands is considered one of Burton's best movies by some critics.[14] Burton says this is his most personable and meaningful film because it's a representation of him not being able to communicate effectively with others as a teenager. Following this collaboration with Burton, Depp starred in Ed\u2005Wood, Sleepy\u2005Hollow, Charlie\u2005and\u2005the\u2005Chocolate\u2005Factory, Corpse\u2005Bride, Sweeney\u2005Todd:\u2005The\u2005Demon\u2005Barber\u2005of\u2005Fleet\u2005Street, Alice\u2005in\u2005Wonderland, and Dark\u2005Shadows.\nIn 2004, Matthew\u2005Bourne came to Burton with the idea to turn the story of Edward into a ballet. In 2005, the ballet first aired. It has toured the UK, the U.S., Canada, Australia and parts of Europe.\nMain article: Batman\u2005Returns\nThe day Warner Brothers declined to make the more personal Films, after the success of Batman, Burton agreed to direct the sequel for Warner Brothers on the condition that he would be granted total control. The result was Batman Returns, which featured Michael Keaton returning as Batman, and a new triad of villains: Danny\u2005DeVito (as the\u2005Penguin), Michelle\u2005Pfeiffer (as Catwoman) and Christopher\u2005Walken (as Max\u2005Shreck, an evil corporate tycoon and original character created for the film). Darker and considerably more personal than its predecessor, concerns were raised that the film was too scary for children. Audiences were more uncomfortable at the film's overt sexuality, personified by the sleek, fetish-inspired styling of Catwoman's costume. One critic remarked, \"too many villains spoiled the Batman\", highlighting Burton's decision to focus the storyline more on the villains instead of Batman. The film also polarized the fanbase, with some loving the darkness and quirkiness, while others felt it was not true to the core aspects of the source material. Burton made many changes to the Penguin which would subsequently be applied to the character in both comics and television. While in the comics, he was an ordinary man, Burton created a freak of nature resembling a penguin with webbed, flipper-like fingers, a hooked, beak-like nose, and a penguin-like body (resulting in a rotund, obese man). Released in 1992, Batman Returns grossed $282.8 million worldwide, making it financial success, though not to the extent of its predecessor.\nMain article: The\u2005Nightmare\u2005Before\u2005Christmas\nBurton produced, but did not direct, due to schedule constraints on Batman Returns, The Nightmare Before Christmas (1993) for Disney, originally meant to be a children's book in rhyme. The film was directed by Henry\u2005Selick and written by Caroline\u2005Thompson, based on Burton's original story, world and characters. The film received positive reviews for the stop motion animation, musical score and original storyline. It was a box office success, grossing $50 million.Because of the ruling nature of the film, it was not produced under Disney's name, but rather Disney owned Touchstone Pictures. Disney also fought for the protagonist to have eyes,[15] which was a fight they did not win in the end. There were over 100 people working on this movie just to create the characters. Along with the 3 years of work it took to produce the movie.[16] Burton collaborated with Selick again for James\u2005and\u2005the\u2005Giant\u2005Peach (1996), which Burton co-produced.\nJack Skellington, the protagonist of the film, was so popular that it later resurfaced in Selick's film James and the Giant Peach, and then again in a small scene in Coraline where the Other Mother is cooking, viewers are able to see Jack's familiar head in the shell of an egg.\nMain article: Cabin\u2005Boy\nIn 1994, Burton and frequent co-producer Denise\u2005Di\u2005Novi produced the 1994 fantasy-comedy Cabin Boy, starring comedian Chris\u2005Elliott and directed/written by Adam\u2005Resnick. Burton was originally supposed to direct the film after seeing Elliott perform on Get\u2005a\u2005Life, but handed the directing responsibility to Resnick once he was offered Ed\u2005Wood. The reception to the film was mixed. Chris Elliott won a 1995 Razzie\u2005Award for \"Worst New Star\" with his performance.[17] On Metacritic, the film holds a score of 21 out of 100, but has a 45% \"rotten\" rating on Rotten\u2005Tomatoes, indicating more mixed contemporary reviews.\nMain article: Ed\u2005Wood\u2005(film)\nBurton's next film, Ed Wood (1994), was of a much smaller scale, depicting the life of Ed\u2005Wood, a filmmaker sometimes called \"the worst director of all time\". Starring Johnny Depp in the title role, the film is an homage to the low-budget science fiction and horror films of Burton's childhood, and handles its comical protagonist and his motley band of collaborators with surprising fondness and sensitivity. Owing to creative squabbles during the making of The Nightmare Before Christmas, Danny Elfman declined to score Ed Wood, and the assignment went to Howard\u2005Shore. While a commercial failure at the time of its release, Ed Wood was well received by critics. Martin\u2005Landau received an Academy Award in the Best Supporting Actor category for his portrayal of Bela\u2005Lugosi, and the film received the award for Best\u2005Makeup.\nMain article: Batman\u2005Forever\nDespite Burton's intention to still lead the Batman franchise, Warner Bros. considered Batman Returns too dark and unsafe for children. To attract the young audience, it was decided that Joel\u2005Schumacher, who had directed films like The\u2005Client, lead the third film, while Burton would only produce it in conjunction with Peter\u2005MacGregor-Scott. Following this change and the changes made by the new director, Michael Keaton resigned from the lead role and was replaced by Val\u2005Kilmer. Filming began in late 1994 with new actors: Tommy\u2005Lee\u2005Jones as Harvey Dent/Two-Face, Nicole\u2005Kidman as Dr. Chase Meridian, Chris\u2005O'Donnell as Dick Grayson/Robin and Jim\u2005Carrey as Edward Nygma/ The Riddler; the only two actors who returned were Pat\u2005Hingle as Commissioner Gordon and Michael\u2005Gough as Alfred Pennyworth. The film, a combination of the darkness that characterized the saga and colors and neon signs proposed by Schumacher, was a huge box office success, earning $336 million, in spite of the controversy over the characters and plot. Warner Bros. demanded that Schumacher delete some scenes so the film did not have the same tone as its predecessor, Batman Returns (later they were added as deleted scenes on the 2005 DVD release).\nMain article: James\u2005and\u2005the\u2005Giant\u2005Peach\u2005(film)\nIn 1996, Burton and Selick reunited for the musical fantasy James and the Giant Peach, based on the book by Roald\u2005Dahl. The film, a combination of live action and stop motion footage, starred Richard\u2005Dreyfuss, Susan\u2005Sarandon, David\u2005Thewlis, Simon\u2005Callow and Jane\u2005Leeves among others, with Burton producing and Selick directing. The film was mostly praised by critics, and was nominated for the Academy\u2005Award for Best\u2005Original\u2005Musical\u2005or\u2005Comedy\u2005Score (by Randy\u2005Newman).\nThe book on which the film was based contains magical elements and references to drugs and alcohol.[18] The book has all the hallmarks of a classic children's fantasy: a young boy embarking on a great adventure overcoming evil forces and enlisting the help of talking creatures. Roald Dahl, the publisher of the book was inspired by his own apple orchard that would grow very big. \"What would happen if it didn't stop growing?\" was the question Dahl asked himself.[19]\nMain article: Mars\u2005Attacks!\nElfman and Burton reunited for Mars Attacks! (1996). Based on a popular science fiction trading card series, the film was a hybrid of 1950s science fiction and 1970s all-star disaster films. Coincidence made it an inadvertent spoof of the blockbuster Independence\u2005Day, which had been released five months earlier. The film boasted an all-star cast, including Jack\u2005Nicholson, Glenn\u2005Close, Annette\u2005Bening, Danny\u2005DeVito, Pierce\u2005Brosnan, Michael\u2005J.\u2005Fox, Sarah\u2005Jessica\u2005Parker, Natalie\u2005Portman, Lukas\u2005Haas, Martin\u2005Short, Rod\u2005Steiger, Christina\u2005Applegate and Jack\u2005Black.\nMain article: Superman\u2005in\u2005film\u2005\u00a7 Superman\u2005Lives\nAfter Kevin\u2005Smith had been hired to write a new Superman film, he suggested Burton to direct.[20] Burton came on and Warner Bros. set a theatrical release date for the summer of 1998, the 60th anniversary of the character's debut in Action\u2005Comics.[21] Nicolas\u2005Cage was signed on to play Superman, Burton hired Wesley\u2005Strick to rewrite Smith's script and the film entered pre-production in June 1997. For budgetary reasons, Warner Bros. ordered another rewrite from Dan\u2005Gilroy, delayed the film and ultimately put it on hold in April 1998. Burton then left to direct Sleepy\u2005Hollow.[21] Burton has depicted the experience as a difficult one, citing differences with producer Jon\u2005Peters and the studio, stating, \"I basically wasted a year. A year is a long time to be working with somebody that you don't really want to be working with.\"[22]\nMain article: Sleepy\u2005Hollow\u2005(film)\nSleepy Hollow, released in late 1999, had a supernatural setting and contained another offbeat performance by Johnny Depp as Ichabod\u2005Crane, a detective with an interest in forensic science rather than the schoolteacher of Washington\u2005Irving's original tale. With Sleepy Hollow, Burton paid homage to the horror films of the English company Hammer\u2005Films. Christopher\u2005Lee, one of Hammer's stars, was given a cameo role. A host of Burton regulars appeared in supporting roles (Michael\u2005Gough, Jeffrey\u2005Jones and Christopher\u2005Walken, among others) and Christina\u2005Ricci was cast as Katrina van Tassel. A well-regarded supporting cast was headed by Miranda\u2005Richardson, Michael\u2005Gambon, Richard\u2005Griffiths and Ian\u2005McDiarmid. Mostly well received by critics, and with a special mention to Elfman's gothic score, the film won an Academy\u2005Award for Best\u2005Art\u2005Direction, as well as two BAFTAs for Best Costume Design and Best Production Design. A box office success, Sleepy Hollow was also a turning point for Burton. Along with change in his personal life (separation from actress Lisa\u2005Marie), Burton changed radically in style for his next project, leaving the haunted forests and colorful outcasts behind to go on to directing Planet\u2005of\u2005the\u2005Apes which, as Burton had repeatedly noted, was \"not a remake\" of the earlier film.\nTim Burton at the 64th\u2005Venice\u2005Film\u2005Festival\nMain article: Planet\u2005of\u2005the\u2005Apes\u2005(2001\u2005film)\nPlanet of the Apes was a commercial success, grossing $68 million in its opening weekend. The film has received mixed reviews and is widely considered inferior to the\u2005first\u2005adaptation of the\u2005novel.\nMain article: Big\u2005Fish\nIn 2003, Burton directed Big Fish, based on the novel Big\u2005Fish:\u2005A\u2005Novel\u2005of\u2005Mythic\u2005Proportions by Daniel\u2005Wallace. The film is about a father telling the story of his life to his son using exaggeration and color. Starring Ewan\u2005McGregor as young Edward Bloom and Albert\u2005Finney as an older Edward Bloom, the film also stars Jessica\u2005Lange, Billy\u2005Crudup, Danny\u2005DeVito, Alison\u2005Lohman and Marion\u2005Cotillard. Big Fish is also notable as Miley\u2005Cyrus' first film\u2014she plays \"Young Ruthie\" credited under her birth name, Destiny\u2005Hope\u2005Cyrus. Big Fish received four Golden\u2005Globe nominations as well as an Academy Award nomination for Elfman's score. Big Fish was also the second collaboration between Burton and Helena\u2005Bonham\u2005Carter, who played the characters of Jenny and the Witch.\nMain article: Charlie\u2005and\u2005the\u2005Chocolate\u2005Factory\u2005(film)\nCharlie and the Chocolate Factory (2005) is an adaptation of the book\u2005of\u2005the\u2005same\u2005name by Roald\u2005Dahl. Starring Johnny Depp as Willy\u2005Wonka, Freddie\u2005Highmore as Charlie Bucket and Deep\u2005Roy as the Oompa-Loompas, the film generally took a more faithful approach to the source material than the 1971 adaptation, Willy\u2005Wonka\u2005&\u2005the\u2005Chocolate\u2005Factory, although some liberties were taken, such as adding Wonka's issue with his father (played by Christopher\u2005Lee). Charlie and the Chocolate Factory was later nominated for the Academy\u2005Award for Best\u2005Costume\u2005Design. The film made over $207 million domestically. Filming proved difficult as Burton, Depp, and Danny Elfman had to work on this and Burton's Corpse Bride at the same time.\nMain article: Corpse\u2005Bride\nCorpse\u2005Bride (2005) was Burton's first full-length stop motion film as a director, featuring the voices of Johnny\u2005Depp as Victor and Helena\u2005Bonham\u2005Carter (for whom the project was specifically created) as Emily in the lead roles. In this film, Burton was able again to use his familiar styles and trademarks, such as the complex interaction between light and darkness, and of being caught between two irreconcilable worlds.\nMain articles: Bones\u2005(The\u2005Killers\u2005song) and Here\u2005with\u2005Me\u2005(The\u2005Killers\u2005song)\n\"Bones\" (2006) was the first music video Burton directed.

The film won numerous awards and was nominated for an Academy\u2005Award for Best\u2005Animated\u2005Short\u2005Film. After seeing the short film, Tim Burton and Timur\u2005Bekmambetov, director of Wanted, showed interest in producing a feature-length adaptation of the film.

Mia\u2005Wasikowska was cast as Alice. The original start date was May 2008.[26] Torpoint and Plymouth were the locations used for filming from September 1 \u2013 October 14, and the film remains set in the Victorian\u2005era. During this time, filming took place in Antony\u2005House in Torpoint.[27] 250 local extras were chosen in early August.[28][29] Other production work took place in London.[30] The film was originally to be released in 2009, but was pushed to March 5, 2010.[31] Johnny Depp plays the Mad\u2005Hatter, while Matt\u2005Lucas is both Tweedledee\u2005and\u2005Tweedledum; Helena\u2005Bonham\u2005Carter portrays the Red\u2005Queen; Stephen\u2005Fry is the Cheshire\u2005Cat; Anne\u2005Hathaway stars as the White\u2005Queen; Alan\u2005Rickman voices Absolem the Caterpillar, Michael\u2005Sheen voices McTwisp the White Rabbit and Crispin\u2005Glover's head and voice were added onto a CGI body to play the Knave\u2005of\u2005Hearts.\nTim Burton appeared at the 2009 Comic-Con in San Diego, California, to promote both 9 and Alice in Wonderland.

The film won two Academy\u2005Awards, for Best\u2005Art\u2005Direction and Best\u2005Costume\u2005Design.\nMain article: Dark\u2005Shadows\u2005(film)\nBurton's film Dark Shadows once again starred Johnny\u2005Depp and Helena\u2005Bonham\u2005Carter in leading roles. The film was based on the original Dark\u2005Shadows gothic soap opera, which aired on ABC from 1966 to 1971. Other members of the cast included Michelle\u2005Pfeiffer, Eva\u2005Green, Jackie\u2005Earle\u2005Haley, Bella\u2005Heathcote, Gulliver\u2005McGrath and Chlo\u00eb\u2005Grace\u2005Moretz. Filming began in April 2011, with the film released on May 11, 2012. Danny\u2005Elfman once again composed and conducted the score and soundtrack for the film, and Colleen Atwood was the costume designer. It has received mixed reviews from critics, some of whom think it is a tongue-in-cheek gothic comedy, visually appealing and fitting as an adaptation of the melodramatic soap opera, whereas others think the film has a very loose plot, is not particularly humorous, and that Burton and Depp's collaborative efforts have worn thin.\nMain article: Abraham\u2005Lincoln:\u2005Vampire\u2005Hunter\nBurton co-produced Abraham\u2005Lincoln:\u2005Vampire\u2005Hunter, with Timur\u2005Bekmambetov, who also served as director (they previously worked together in 9). The film, released on June 22, 2012, was based on the novel by Seth\u2005Grahame-Smith, who also wrote the film's screenplay and also authored Pride\u2005and\u2005Prejudice\u2005and\u2005Zombies. The film starred Benjamin\u2005Walker as Abraham\u2005Lincoln, Anthony\u2005Mackie as William\u2005H.\u2005Johnson, Joseph\u2005Mawle as Lincoln's father Thomas, Robin\u2005McLeavy as Lincoln's mother Nancy and Mary\u2005Elizabeth\u2005Winstead as Lincoln's love interest (and later wife) Mary\u2005Ann\u2005Todd. It received mixed reviews.[32][33]\nMain article: Frankenweenie\u2005(2012\u2005film)\nBurton remade his 1984 short film Frankenweenie as a feature-length stop motion film, distributed by Walt\u2005Disney\u2005Pictures.[34] He has said, \"The film is based on a memory that I had when I was growing up and with my relationship with a dog that I had.\"[35] The film was released on October 5, 2012, and met with positive reviews.[36]\nMain article: Big\u2005Eyes\nBurton directed the 2014 biographical drama film Big Eyes about American artist Margaret\u2005Keane (Amy\u2005Adams), whose work was fraudulently claimed in the 1950s and 1960s by her then-husband, Walter\u2005Keane (Christoph\u2005Waltz), and their heated divorce trial after Margaret accused Walter of stealing credit for her paintings. The script was written by the screenwriters behind Burton's Ed Wood, Scott\u2005Alexander\u2005and\u2005Larry\u2005Karaszewski. The film, pitched a few years earlier, was intended to be directed by Alexander and Karaszewski and produced by Burton, featuring Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Reynolds as its leads. Filming began in Vancouver,\u2005British\u2005Columbia, in mid-2013. The film was distributed by The Weinstein Company and released in U.S. theaters on December 25, 2014. It received generally positive reviews from critics.[37][38]\nMain article: Alice\u2005Through\u2005the\u2005Looking\u2005Glass\u2005(2016\u2005film)\nBurton produced the sequel to Alice in Wonderland, titled Alice\u2005Through\u2005the\u2005Looking\u2005Glass (2016).[39]\nMain article: Miss\u2005Peregrine's\u2005Home\u2005for\u2005Peculiar\u2005Children\u2005(film)\nBurton directed an adaptation of Ransom\u2005Riggs' book Miss\u2005Peregrine's\u2005Home\u2005for\u2005Peculiar\u2005Children, which was released in September 2016, starring Asa\u2005Butterfield and Eva\u2005Green, in her second Burton film.[40]\nMain article: Dumbo\u2005(2019\u2005film)\nBurton is in principal production on a live action adaptation of Dumbo, with Colin\u2005Farrell, Danny\u2005DeVito, Eva\u2005Green and Michael\u2005Keaton starring.\nIn July 2012, following the release of both Dark Shadows and Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter, it was reported that screenwriter and novelist Seth Grahame-Smith is working alongside Tim Burton on a potential Beetlejuice sequel. Actor Michael\u2005Keaton has also expressed interest in reprising his role as the title character along with Winona\u2005Ryder.[41][42]\nFurther information: Tim\u2005Burton's\u2005unrealized\u2005projects\nIn 2001, The\u2005Walt\u2005Disney\u2005Company began to consider producing a sequel to The\u2005Nightmare\u2005Before\u2005Christmas, but rather than using stop\u2005motion, Disney wanted to use computer\u2005animation.[43] Burton convinced Disney to drop the idea. \"I was always very protective of Nightmare not to do sequels or things of that kind,\" Burton explained. \"You know, 'Jack visits Thanksgiving world' or other kinds of things just because I felt the movie had a purity to it and the people that like it... Because it's a mass-market kind of thing, it was important to kind of keep that purity of it.\"[44] Regardless, in 2009, Henry\u2005Selick stated that he could make a sequel to Nightmare if he and Burton could create a good story for it.[45]\nIn 2012, Shane Acker confirmed that Burton will work with Valve\u2005Corporation to create his next animated feature film, Deep. Like 9, the film will take place in a post-apocalyptic world (although set in a different universe). Deep will be another darker animated film, as Shane Acker has expressed his interest in creating more PG-13 animated films.[46] Since then, there have been no further mentions of Deep, with Acker focusing on another project announced in 2013 (Beasts\u2005of\u2005Burden).[47][48]\nOn January 19, 2010, it was announced that after Dark Shadows, Burton's next project would be Maleficent, a Wicked-like film that showed the origin and the past of Sleeping\u2005Beauty's antagonist Maleficent. In an interview with Fandango published February 23, 2010, however, he denied he was directing any upcoming Sleeping Beauty film.[49] However, on November 23, 2010, in an interview with MTV, Burton confirmed that he was indeed putting together a script for Maleficent.[50] It was announced by The\u2005Hollywood\u2005Reporter on May 16, 2011, that Burton was no longer attached to Maleficent.[51]\nIt was reported that Burton would direct a 3D stop motion animation adaptation of The\u2005Addams\u2005Family, which was confirmed by Christopher Meledandri,[52] but the project was scrapped on July 17, 2013.[53] On July 19, 2010, he was announced as the director of the upcoming film adaptation of Monsterpocalypse.[54]\nIn 2011, it reported that Burton was working on a live-action adaptation of The\u2005Hunchback\u2005of\u2005Notre-Dame, featuring Josh\u2005Brolin, who would also be co-producing. The project did not move forward.[55][56]\nBurton was married to Lena Gieseke, a German-born artist. Their marriage ended in 1991 after four years.[57] He went on to live with model and actress Lisa\u2005Marie; she acted in the films he made during their relationship from 1992 to 2001, most notably in Ed\u2005Wood and Mars\u2005Attacks!. Burton developed a romantic relationship with English actress Helena\u2005Bonham\u2005Carter, whom he met while filming Planet\u2005of\u2005the\u2005Apes. Marie responded in 2005 by holding an auction of personal belongings that Burton had left behind, much to his dismay.[58]\nBurton and Bonham Carter have two children: a son, Billy Raymond, named after his and Bonham Carter's fathers, born in 2003; and a daughter, Nell, born in 2007.[59] Bonham Carter's representative said in December 2014 that she and Burton had broken up amicably earlier that year.[60]\nClose friend Johnny\u2005Depp is a godfather of both of Burton's children. In Depp's introduction to Burton on Burton, he writes, \"What more can I say about him? He is a brother, a friend, my godson's father. He is a unique and brave soul, someone that I would go to the ends of the earth for, and I know, full and well, he would do the same for me.\"\nOn March 15, 2010, Burton received the insignia of Chevalier\u2005of\u2005Arts\u2005and\u2005Letters from then-Minister\u2005of\u2005Culture Fr\u00e9d\u00e9ric\u2005Mitterrand.[61]\nBurton was the President of the Jury for the 63rd\u2005annual\u2005Cannes\u2005Film\u2005Festival, held from May 12 to 24, 2010 in Cannes, France.[62]\nBurton has stated that his favorite films are Dracula\u2005A.D.\u20051972, The\u2005Wicker\u2005Man, The\u2005Golden\u2005Voyage\u2005of\u2005Sinbad, The\u2005War\u2005of\u2005the\u2005Gargantuas and The\u2005Omega\u2005Man.[63]\nOn May 20, 2017, a Tim Burton-themed bar named Beetle House LA opened in Hollywood, California.[64]\nMain article: List\u2005of\u2005frequent\u2005Tim\u2005Burton\u2005collaborators\nBurton regularly casts the same actors in his film projects.

        "raw_content": "All Games \u00bb NCAAF \u00bb August 31\nNew Mexico St vs. Arizona State,\n#139 New Mexico State\n#140 Arizona State\nNew Mexico State Aggies (0-0 SU, 0-0-0 PS, 0-0-0 O/U) vs Arizona State Sun Devils (0-0 SU, 0-0-0 PS, 0-0-0 O/U)\nWhere: Sun Devil Stadium in Tempe, Arizona\nLines: Arizona State -23.5\nThe Sun Belt Conference meets the Pac-12 Conference this evening as the New Mexico State Aggies duke it out with the Arizona State Sun Devils at Sun Devil Stadium in Tempe, Arizona. Both teams will be looking to bounce back from rough seasons a year ago. These teams last met in 1999 and New Mexico State won that game by a score of 35-7.\nThe Aggies Will Flirt With Bowl Eligibility\nThe New Mexico State Aggies won just three games in each of the last two years and just two games in each of the two years before that, but this team has a shot at breaking through and making it to their first bowl game since 1960. The Aggies are the most experienced team in the league and the 15th most in the nation as they 44 lettermen back, including 16 starters, plus they went heavy into the Juco ranks and brought in 13 players from there. The majority of their Juco transfers was brought in to help a defense that was horrible last year as they ranked 118th against the run, 97th against the pass, 121st in total defense and 121st in points allowed, giving up 38.8 ppg. They did improve last year by 6.2 ppg over the 45 ppg they allowed in 2015 and with the experience they have on this side of the ball, plus the 3rd rated LB corps in the league, they should improve greatly on last year\u2019s numbers.\nThe offense has been improving in each year under Doug Martin and this year\u2019s offense will be his best year. In fact, this could be one of the best offenses in the Sun Belt this year. Tyler Rogers is back at QB after throwing for 2603 yards with 16 TDs and 12 INTs last year and he has seven of his top eight receivers back from last year. The RB corps rates as the best in the Sun Belt this year and is led by senior Larry Rose, who is ready for a huge year after rushing for 865 yards and four TDs in nine games last year. He had run for 1102 yards in 2014 and 1651 yards in 2015, so he has star power and if healthy will put up some big numbers. It helps that he will be running behind the 4th best OL in the league. Last year, the Aggies ranked 70th in rushing, 54th in passing, 64th on total offense and 97th in scoring, putting up just 24.8. They will top those numbers. This experienced team will be in play to break their long bowl drought this year.\nCan The Sun Devils Get Back To A Bowl Game?\nThe Arizona State Sun Devils could surprise this year as they are coming off a 5-7 season and have 13 starters back from that team. It was their first time since 2010 that they missed out on a bowl party and that makes them a mission team. The offense was solid as they averaged 33.3 ppg and it could be a bit stronger this year as they have seven starters back on that side of the ball, including Manny Wilkins, who has a solid season a year ago as a sophomore and he is ready for big things this year. Wilkins threw for 2329 yards with 12 TDs and nine INTs a year ago and he looks to improve on those numbers but the WR corps is a bit average. The running game has their top two backs returning in Demario Richard and Kalen Ballage, who combined for 1129 yards and 17 TDs last year and they have some good depth at RB, but the OL is one of the worst in the league. The Sun Devils were 112th in the nation in rushing last year, 39th in passing and 81st in total offense, while scoring 33.3 ppg, which was 40th in the land. They could come close to those numbers this year.\nThe defense is where the problems are as they allowed 39.8 ppg last year, including 42.4 ppg in league play. They have six starters back on that side of the ball, but still just 20 of 36 lettermen return on defense overall. The Sun Devils do have one of the best defensive lines in the league, while the LB corps rates as 5th best in the Pac-12, but the secondary rates as 11th in the league and that could be a big problem against the many pass happy teams that the Pac-12 has. ASU ranked 56th in the nation against the run, but 128th against the pass and 127th in total defense, while allowing 39.8 ppg, which was 124th in the land. The Sun Devils have a tough schedule, but a solid offense and an improved defense should allow them to flirt with bowl eligibility this year.\nNMSU is:\n5-2 ATS in their last seven vs. Pac-12\nArizona State is:\n1-4 ATS in their last five games in August\n0-4 ATS in their last four Thursday games\nArizona State is from the Pac-12, while the Aggies are from the Sun Belt. This is a mismatch, right? Possibly. The Aggies are one of the most experienced teams in the nation, while the Sun Devils rate at 54th in experience. The problem for the Sun Devils last year was their defense, which was one of the worst in the league and while they are improved on that side of the ball, they will be taking on what will be a potent New Mexico State offense. That offense is loaded and should be able to score enough on this weak ASU defense to keep the game close. The Sun Devils will get their fair share of points but they will not put up enough to cover this big number. Take the Aggies to keep this one under three TDs.\nPick: New Mexico State +23.5",

        "raw_content": "Wizards 2.0\nFor a while now, we at Wizards towers have had discussions about where we can go with the pod. We want to produce an entertaining listen for Stoke fans, as well as fulfil our commitment to our Patrons. But jobs, families, travel, other podcasts and the general fretting that comes with following Stoke City has meant that recently we\u2019ve felt a bit burnt out. It\u2019s not you, it\u2019s me.\nSo we\u2019re trying a bit of a format switch-up. Rather than doing an hour-long Sunday morning review of Stoke\u2019s Saturday game, we\u2019re going for something a bit different. We\u2019ll still be reviewing the games, but the dissections of 1-0 defeats to Burnley will be reduced dramatically, and for the bulk of the podcasts we\u2019ve got coming up, we\u2019ll be addressing more general themes \u2013 about Stoke, about football, about being a football fan. Think our \u2018How to be a Stokie\u2019 episode. We want to get different guests on, talking about a range of issues \u2013 big and small. Our hope is that the pod becomes something that doesn\u2019t go out of date within a week, and provides a more interesting listen than simply \u2018Where Stoke went wrong\u2019 this week\u2019. If you have an idea for a theme you\u2019d like us to talk about, a guest you want us to have on, etc. we\u2019re all open to ideas. We\u2019ll still be trying to interview the great and the good of Stoke City as well, a la Episode 72 with Smith, Conroy and Banks.\nTo Patrons, we haven\u2019t forgotten you. We\u2019re also trying a fresh new series over on Patreon.com/wizardsofdrivel \u2013 a month-by-month review of Stoke City\u2019s Premier League adventure so far. This will be recorded on Sunday in place of much of our \u2018match review\u2019 chat, with the bulk of the main episodes recorded during the week, and released on Sunday as usual. I hope this makes sense. So, everyone gets the same amount of pod, but less whinging and more talking about what we love about football with people we like and admire.\nOn Wednesday, we\u2019ll be talking to talented football writers Nico Morales and Ben Wills about the future of the Premier League, and releasing that episode on Sunday along with a brief Bournemouth reaction. Also on Sunday, Patrons will get a look at August 2008 in the first episode of their new series.\nIt\u2019s an exciting change for us, and we hope you\u2019ll stick with us for it.\nGooarn Stoke.\nPrevious PostMark Hughes should keep using adversity as an advantageNext PostTime to go, Hughes",

Here's what history tells us about midterm elections...\nDemocrats have gained a couple of points on the generic ballot over the past couple of weeks. Every point matters as we\u2019re close to wrapping up the midterms and are within three months of the general election. In what's shaping up to be a tight election cycle relative to congressional control, small moves matter. Democrats have led on the generic ballot by an average of 3% to 12% in 2018. Anything in the 8%+ range would likely produce a \"wave\" type of election. Anything in the 4% or under range would likely result in Republicans retaining complete control.

        "raw_content": "Digital security and privacy is crucially important.\nFor human rights advocates, journalists and activists as well as ordinary citizens, the possibility of your communications being monitored, or the threat of your personal identity or location being exposed, pose a considerable risk, especially if you are working with sensitive information or issues. A thorough digital security strategy is essential, as it will only be as strong as its weakest link. You don't want to simply lock the door to your house when all the windows are open!\nSigns that digital security has been compromised can include:\nPasswords that change mysteriously\nPrivate messages that appear to have been read by someone else\nWebsites that have become inaccessible from certain countries\nOfficials revealing knowledge about private correspondence, including dates, names or topics discussed\nSigns that mobile phone conversations have been monitored\nDo I need to be concerned about this?\nYes. Such scenarios could compromise your projects or expose you or your contacts to censorship, surveillance or persecution, The technology required to compromise someone's digital security is quite simple.\nRegularly updating your computer's operating system, installing reliable anti-malware software, and doing regular back-ups are the most important basic precautions to take.\nIf you have reason to believe that your computers or data-storage devices, including your back-ups, are at risk of being lost, stolen or confiscated, or that your organisation may be subject to targeted internet surveillance (or if this is commonplace in the regions where you operate), then you should refer to Tactical Tech's Security in-a-Box toolkit for more detailed advice.\nFive key points for digital security on the internet\n1. Be anonymous\nAnonymity software such as Tor is useful when you do not want to reveal which websites you have visited. Tor bounces your connection between several random volunteer computers in order to prevent even your ISP (Internet Service Provider) or government-level observers from knowing what you are doing on the internet. However, do not use Tor when sending or receiving sensitive information to or from insecure websites. Unless you are connected to a website that supports HTTPS, it is possible for one of the volunteer computers to monitor the content as it loads.\nYou can also use Tor to hide your identity from the websites you visit or to bypass Internet filters. These tools are useful when you need to access websites that are blocked; for example for research, or in order to submit updates to web-based platforms such as Facebook.\n2. Communicate through secure and/or encrypted channels\nJust as the person delivering your mail \u2013 or any person with access to your mailbox - could potentially take a look at your personal letters, someone could monitor your internet communication while you log in to an insecure website.\n2.1 Secure connections\nTo protect against this kind of attack, most popular web-based email, social networking, blogging, mapping, and video platforms offer secure connections, called HTTPS. You can check whether you have a secure connection to a webpage by looking for 'https://' (rather than just 'http://') at the beginning of your browser's address bar. Many web-based tools, however, do NOT use HTTPS to protect any information, other than your password, that you submit to or get from their websites.\nAs a result, if someone monitors your connection for long enough, they will learn what you have stored on that site. Your best defence against this is to use web-based tools that use HTTPS for all pages.\nYou can complement a secure channel with an additional layer of protection \u2013 encryption. Encryption scrambles your message and makes it unreadable by anyone except the intended recipient. Protocols like PGP (Pretty Good Privacy) are now available as free and easy-to-install plugins for many major mail clients like Thunderbird and Outlook. PGP uses a combination of advanced cryptographic systems to not only scramble your message but also authenticate your identity to the recipient.\n3. Have a strong password\nUse our password checker to test the strength of your passwords.\nA password should be difficult for a computer program to guess.\nMake it long & complex: The longer a password is, and the wider the range of characters it uses (upper & lower case, numbers, punctuation), the less likely it is that a computer program would be able to guess it in a reasonable amount of time. You should try to create passwords that include ten or more characters. Some people use passwords that contain more than one word, with or without spaces between them, which are often called passphrases.\nA password should be difficult for others to figure out.\nMake it practical: If you have to write your password down because you can't remember it, you may end up facing a whole new category of threats that could leave you vulnerable to anybody with a clear view of your desk or temporary access to your home, your wallet, or even the trash bin outside your office. Check the Remembering secure passwords of security-in-a-box or consider section using a secure password database such as KeePass. Do not share your password with anyone.\nDon't make it personal: Your password should not be related to you personally. Don't choose a word or phrase based on information such as your name, social security number, telephone number, child's name, pet's name, birth date, or anything else that a person could learn by doing a little research about you.\nA password should be chosen so as to minimise damage if someone does learn it.\nMake it unique: Avoid using the same password for more than one account. Otherwise, anyone who learns that password will gain access to even more of your sensitive information.\nKeep it fresh: Change your password on a regular basis, preferably at least once every three months.\nEach new method of storing or transferring digital information tends to introduce several new ways in which the information in question can be lost, taken or destroyed. Years of work can disappear in an instant as a result of theft, momentary carelessness, the confiscation of computer hardware, or simply because digital storage technology is inherently fragile. There is a common saying among computer support professionals: \"it's not a question of if you will lose your data; it's a question of when.\" So, when this happens to you, it is extremely important that you already have an up-to-date backup and a well-tested means of restoring it.\nAlthough it is one of the most basic elements of secure computing, formulating an effective backup policy is not as simple as it sounds. It can be a significant planning hurdle for a number of reasons: the need to store original data and backups in different physical locations; the importance of keeping backups confidential; and the challenge of coordinating among different people who share information with one another using their own portable storage devices. For more detailed information, consult the chapter on digital backups in our Security-in-a-Box toolkit.\n5. Cover your traces\nWhen using public online tools like Facebook, and Twitter for mobilisation or coordination, remember that the information you store on such platforms becomes, to some extent, the property of the operators, and that many of these tools expose more information than you might think.\nWhen you entrust a sensitive project to operators of any online tool, read their privacy policies or user agreements. Remember that even the most enlightened policy leaves your information under the direct control of the platform's administrators, who would be able to share, sell or misplace that information without your permission or knowledge. Even if you terminate your account, many of these sites do not actually delete the content you have posted or the personal information you have provided.\nUnless it is important that you use a particular commercial service, either because of its accessibility or because doing so helps you blend in with lower-profile users, consider some of the rights-progressive alternatives: Blip.tv instead of YouTube; riseup.net rather than Gmail. If you have the technical resources, you can also run your own web-based services.\nIf you use commercial platforms, take precautions to protect yourself from malicious individuals who know how to dig up private information on such services. This is particularly true of social network site platforms such as Facebook and MySpace. Develop a thorough understanding of the privacy features that are built into these platforms, and think about the kinds of information that you might unintentionally reveal about yourself or your organisation; for example, your real name, where you live, the places to which you travel and details about upcoming events or meetings. If monitored over a long time, such information can also provide a picture of your habits and working practices.\nOne helpful technique is to create multiple accounts on any web-based service that you use, allowing you to use different accounts or profiles for different projects, and to maintain test accounts that you can use to 'spy' on yourself. Your privacy is better protected if you you are able to check, in different ways, what is revealed about your account; for example, through web searches or people who hold special access privileges. Me & My Shadow allows you to interactively visualise how many pieces of personal information you are revealing when you use the internet.\nInternet Security and Privacy Resources\nSecurity in-a-box was created by Tactical Tech and Front Line to meet the digital security and privacy needs of advocates and human rights defenders.\nDigital Security and Privacy for Human Rights Defenders by Front Line provides useful information about assessing and addressing digital threats.\nMobiles in-a-box by Tactical Tech features an entire section on mobile phone privacy and security.\nAnonymous Blogging with Wordpress & Tor. Global Voices created this guide to support rights advocates who want to reveal the truth and express themselves online but who may put themselves at risk by doing so.\nBe anonymous online and circumvent censorship. Tor is designed to increase the anonymity of your activities on the internet and it can also be used to bypass internet filtering. You can download it on to your computer or run it from a USB stick.\nSecurity and safety tipsChat securely with JitsiInternet Relay Chat (IRC)HTTPS EverywhereTor: Stopping web tracking Email client for Android",

        "title": "Before Lugosi: Vampires of the Silent Screen - WWAC",
        "raw_content": "With his slick black hair, Hungarian accent, suave costume and penetrating glare, Bela Lugosi emerged as the definitive screen vampire after starring in Universal\u2019s 1931 film of Dracula. The actors who played Count Dracula afterward, such as Christopher Lee and Gary Oldman, sometimes homaged Lugosi and sometimes subverted him, but they always performed in his shadow.\nThat said, Bela Lugosi was not the first of the screen vampires. While he and Universal established an archetype in 1931, other actors, directors and studios had crafted their own, quite distinct takes on the vampire theme in the years beforehand\u2026\nBela Lugosi in Universal\u2019s 1931 Dracula.\nThe Origins of the Vampire Film\nThe beginnings of the vampire cinema is muddied by the fact that many of the earliest screen vampires were of the figurative variety. Actress Theda Bara made a career out of playing mortal temptresses in films such as A Fool There Was (1915), which was based on Rudyard Kipling\u2019s poem \u201cthe Vampire.\u201d Her characters were popularly referred to as vampires, or vamps: \u201cI will continue doing vampires as long as people sin,\u201d she said in 1917.\nCritic and screenwriter David Rudkin cites Georges M\u00e9li\u00e8s\u2019 1896 trickfilm Le Manoir du diable (known in English variously as The Haunted Castle or The Devil\u2019s Castle) as the first vampire film. Certainly, the three-minute short uses a lot of the imagery that would later turn up in vampire films, showing a supernatural character who transforms into a bat and skeleton and is warded off by a man with a crucifix\u2014although the being in question is clearly the Devil, rather than a vampire. Also deserving of an honourable mention is the ten-part French serial Les Vampires, released from 1915 to 1916; while the vampires of the title are actually a gang of criminals, one of their victims\u2014a ballerina played by Stacia Napierkowska\u2014wears an extravagant vampire costume on stage.\nStacia Napierkowska in Les Vampires.\nWhen it comes to films about vampires of the supernatural kind, the story begins with films based upon Bram Stoker\u2019s Dracula\u2014although even then, the early details are murky. Certain sources indicate that an adaptation entitled Drakula was produced in the USSR in 1920, but information on this film is so scarce that it may never have existed in the first place (the purported clip published on YouTube is a forgery).\nPoster for Drakula hal\u00e1la, showing a horned Paul Askonas.\nThe 1921 Hungarian film Drakula hal\u00e1la (Dracula\u2019s Death) is lost, but a few images and a rough plot synopsis still exist. Directed by K\u00e1roly Lajthay, the film was not a true adaptation of Stoker\u2019s novel, but rather an original story about an insane man (played by Paul Askonas) who merely believed himself to be Dracula. The fanciful poster depicts Askonas\u2019 character with devil horns, which he presumably never sported in the film itself. From what little material survives, it would appear that Askonas was the most Lugosi-like of the silent vampires.\nNosferatu and Count Orlok\nVampire cinema did not begin in earnest until 1922, with the release of Nosferatu, eine Symphonie des Grauens (Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror). This film is an unauthorised adaptation of Dracula, compressing Stoker\u2019s plot and changing the characters\u2019 names: most prominently, Dracula himself (portrayed by actor Max Schreck) was renamed Count Orlok. Although directed by F. W. Murnau and written by Henrik Galeen, Nosferatu was the brainchild of Albin Grau. It was Grau who hit on the idea of a film about vampires, and who invited Murnau to direct; and it was Grau who crafted much of the film\u2019s aesthetic, providing concept art influenced by the German Expressionist movement.\nOne of Grau\u2019s artistic influences was Hugo Steiner-Prag. Amongst other things, Steiner-Prag illustrated Gustav Meyrink\u2019s 1914 novel Der Golem, where the legendary man of clay was portrayed not as the stocky creature immortalised in German cinema, but a ghostly figure with distorted, reptilian features. It is not hard to imagine that Grau had this conception in his head as he imagined his cinematic vampire.\nIllustration by Hugo Steiner-Prag for Der Golem. An ancestor of Count Orlok?\nOne of Albin Grau\u2019s images of Count Orlok.\nAnother illustration by Albin Grau, this time showing a more stylised Orlok.\nGrau was also a dedicated occultist, and was attracted to the supernatural themes of Stoker\u2019s novel. He wrote a short article on vampires to promote Nosferatu in B\u00fchne und Film magazine; here, he revealed how, while he was stationed in Serbia during the First World War, a comrade began a conversation about the living dead. \u201cBefore this wretched war, I was over in Romania,\u201d said the man. \u201cI myself know that horrible thing of seeing an undead \u2026 or a Nosferatu, as vampires are called over there.\u201d As the article continues:\nOne day, while his father\u2014who hardly led the life of a saint\u2014was out cutting down trees, he was crushed by a falling tree-trunk. He passed away without the benediction of a priest. Four weeks after his burial, the people in that solitary Carpathian valley suddenly began to die in large numbers! At first, plague was proclaimed. But soon a rumour took shape, and became a terrible reality. Here and there, some peasants, their faces filled with terror, claimed to have seen that dead, unblessed man. Whenever he would withdraw, like a trail of mist, from a farmhouse at night, he would leave behind a dead body. Finally, under pressure from residents of the community, the authorities got to work. Some courageous fellows, whose sons had been lost, took themselves at night to the cemetery. By the glow of their torches, they dug up the coffin. The coffin was empty!\nThe man then showed Grau an official report, dated 18 May 1884: \u201cWhen we dug up the aforementioned Morowicz, we found him in a perfectly healthy colour \u2026 his teeth, which had become astonishingly long and pointed, prevented his mouth from closing \u2026 we planted a stake in the vampire\u2019s heart, upon which he passed away while releasing great moans.\u201d (Translated into English by Craig Keller, for Eureka\u2019s DVD release of Nosferatu.)\nMax Schreck as the vampire Orlok in Nosferatu.\nCritics such as Lotte Eisner have questioned whether Grau\u2019s account is truthful or simply a publicity stunt. For one thing, the location of the vampire outbreak\u2014Progatza, Romania\u2014is nonexistent. Whatever the reality, the article shows that Grau, like Bram Stoker, appreciated the vampire\u2019s folkloric origins.\nAt the time Stoker wrote Dracula, the definitive English-language vampire text was John Polidori\u2019s 1819 story \u201cThe Vampyre,\u201d in which the title character was a thinly-veiled caricature of Lord Byron. This interpretation carried over, in watered-down form, to James Malcolm Rymer\u2019s mass-market imitation Varney the Vampire. But Stoker dug further, researching vampire beliefs of Romania and inventing a supernatural antagonist with deeper folkloric roots than Polidori and Rymer\u2019s creations. Universal\u2019s Dracula could be said to reflect the Byronic vampire, and has its origins in showmanship: Lugosi\u2019s Count developed from stage conventions, while director Tod Browning worked in carnivals and vaudeville prior to entering film. The imagery of Nosferatu, on the other hand, feels as though plucked directly from folkloric memory.\nDracula was published in 1897, and has a contemporary, close-of-the-century setting. The Count himself may be a creature of age-old legend, but the world he invades is a thoroughly modern one of trains, phonographs and blood transfusions; tension between the superstition of the past and the scientific thought of modernity is one of the novel\u2019s main themes. The Universal film adaptation retained this concept by moving the action to an early 1930s setting.\nNosferatu, on the other hand, consciously turns the story into a period piece harking back to an earlier age of literature. The film takes place in 1838, during the Romantic era: the careers of Byron, Shelley, Hoffman and Goethe would have been fresh in the public memory, while Bram Stoker would not be born for another nine years.\nThe film opens with Thomas and Ellen Hutter (based on Stoker\u2019s Jonathan and Mina Harker) frolicking together in a German town, before Thomas heads off to work. His employer, Knock, offers our first introduction to the film\u2019s supernatural themes: he is shown reading a document filled with mysterious symbols, to indicate that he is in league with the vampire. Knock then sends Thomas Hutter off on an errand to the Carpathian Mountains to meet Count Orlok, who wishes to move into town. Along the way, Hutter stops off at an inn, where the local villagers express shock at the name of Count Orlok. This scene could have come straight out of the Universal films from the subsequent decade; but once Orlok appears onscreen, the differences between Nosferatu and later vampire films become apparent.\nCount Orlok disguised as his own coachman.\nIn Stoker\u2019s novel, Dracula is an intangible, ever-shifting presence even before his supernatural transformations come into play. He shows a fondness for multiple identities: he is first introduced apparently masquerading as his own coachman, and later disguises himself as his prisoner Harker to terrorise the local village. Later film adaptations generally downplay this aspect of the character, but Nosferatu embraces it.\nAs per the novel, the vampire first appears in the guise of a coachman who arrives to collect the protagonist. The film uses primitive special effects to add a supernatural atmosphere, with the coach\u2019s movements sped up and one shot shown in negative. When Hutter disembarks at the vampire\u2019s castle, Orlok-as-coachman speeds off into the distance \u2026 only for Orlok-as-Count to appear in the castle shortly afterwards, having apparently teleported there. Through trickfilm techniques established in the previous century, Murnau succeeds in capturing the uncanny atmosphere of Stoker.\nOrlok in his castle.\nIn terms of physical appearance, Orlok bears little resemblance to the Draculas portrayed by Bela Lugosi or Christopher Lee. The black cape\u2014a theatrical convention\u2014is nowhere to be seen; instead, he wears a long, button-up coat. In contrast to the well-groomed Lugosi, Orlok sports claw-like fingernails and (where he is not bald) scraggly hair, recalling the misconception that nails and hair continue to grow after death. While later screen vampires would bear the lethal canines of a carnivore, Orlok has the long, thin incisors of a rodent. He has a permanently startled expression on his face, like an animal that hides from the light. His entire demeanour is rat-like\u2014and, indeed, he is later accompanied by scurrying rats, with the bats favoured by both Stoker and Lugosi completely absent.\nAn uncomfortable aspect of Orlok\u2019s portrayal is his resemblance to anti-Semitic stereotypes seen in Nazi cinema. Der Ewige Jude (The Eternal Jew, 1940) notoriously depicted Jews as being hook-nosed, parasitic, and comparable to rats, all traits shared by Count Orlok. On the other hand, Paul Coates\u2019 1991 book The Gorgon\u2019s Gaze points out the \u201cpotentially anti-Semitic elements\u201d of the film but also notes that, at the time Nosferatu was made, these had not yet obtained \u201ctheir full future racist charge.\u201d It is also worth noting that, in Henrik Galeen\u2019s original script, the innkeeper\u2014a benevolent figure who represents the community terrorised by the vampire\u2014is specifically identified as being Jewish. Furthermore, Albin Grau was no friend of the Third Reich: after the Nazis came to power they imprisoned him in Buchenwald, although he later escaped to Switzerland with his disabled daughter. Murnau and Galeen, meanwhile, had already left Germany by that point.\nOrlok rises from his coffin.\nReturning to the distinction between Nosferatu and Universal\u2019s Dracula, we come again to the multi-faceted nature of Dracula as described by Bram Stoker: as different as they are, Orlok and the later Lugosi/Lee interpretations are equally faithful to their source material. Stoker\u2019s Count alternated between old man and young man, between genial host and jailer, between society man and inhuman monster. Lugosi and Lee reflect the charismatic, even charming side of the character; Orlok, like Dorian Gray\u2019s portrait, captures all of the squalor and decay behind that fa\u00e7ade.\nNosferatu recreates this ghostly aspect of Stoker\u2019s Count. The Dracula of cinema, for all his shapeshifting abilities, tends to favour solid forms: a man, a bat, a pile of ash. Stoker\u2019s Dracula is not restricted to physical bodies, however, and can turn into intangible forms such as vapour. Orlok, similarly, is able to fade in and out of view as a semi-transparent figure, or vanish as he walks through a closed door. Elsewhere, doors open or close in the vampire\u2019s presence through stop motion. In one of the most iconic sequences in the film, Orlok\u2019s coffin suddenly springs open and the vampire himself rises out\u2014his body remaining stiff as a board all the time.\nA famous scene in the novel has Harker look out of a window, and see Dracula climb lizard-like down the castle wall. Nosferatu reworks this by having Hutter look out of a window and see Orlok piling a set of coffins onto his coach. The scene is run at high speed so that Orlok scurries about inhumanly fast, and after he climbs into the top box, the lid slides on top through stop-motion animation before the horses pull the coach away, ready for Orlok\u2019s coffins to be loaded onto a ship.\nEllen Hutter (Greta Schr\u00f6der) under the sway of the vampire.\nCount Orlok is the only vampire in the film: Nosferatu\u2019s abridgment of the novel omits the three vampire women residing in Dracula\u2019s castle, along with the plot thread involving Lucy Westenra\u2019s transformation into a vampire. It does, however, retain the ambiguous nature of Mina Harker.\nIn Stoker\u2019s novel, Mina falls under the influence of Dracula after he attacks her, an incident that begins the story\u2019s climax. Nosferatu re-orders events by having Mina\u2019s counterpart, Ellen Hutter, fall under Orlok\u2019s spell before he has even reached the Hutters\u2019 homeland. When her husband embarks on his journey Ellen shows unexplained foreboding, perhaps hinting at psychic sensitivity; later, while the vampire is on board the ship, Ellen is shown getting out of her bed and sleepwalking to the balcony, as though trying to reach him. This scene may have been drawn from Stoker\u2019s portrayal of Lucy turning into a vampire; as it became a tradition in Dracula films to mix and match elements of Stoker\u2019s characters, we should not be surprised if Nosferatu conflated Mina and Lucy to create Ellen.\nOrlok\u2019s shadow.\nThe film\u2019s final deviation from the novel comes at the climax. While Stoker has the male protagonists slay Dracula, in Nosferatu it is Ellen who realises how to kill the vampire after reading an occult book. She lets Orlok into her home, commencing the famous sequence where the vampire is portrayed only as a sinister shadow climbing the stairs to her bedroom. Ellen collapses when the shadow of Orlok\u2019s hand falls onto her breast, implying that the shadow is an extension of the already-intangible vampire.\nOrlok drinks from Ellen\u2019s neck, but he lingers too long. Outside, a cock crows, and the sun rises. Light pours in through the window and the vampire fades from view one last time, leaving only a pile of ash. The idea that vampires are killed by sunlight has no basis in Stoker\u2019s novel, which had Dracula freely walking around during the day; but the image seems fundamentally right somehow, and later became a cast-iron genre convention. The film ends on a melancholy note as the exsanguinated Ellen dies in the arms of her husband, another indication that she was based partly upon Stoker\u2019s Lucy.\nAfter Nosferatu\nFlorence Stoker, Bram\u2019s widow, was not amused by Grau and company\u2019s unauthorised adaptation of her husband\u2019s work. She pursued legal action and successfully had almost every copy of the film destroyed, with screenings restricted to private film clubs. Prana-Film, the studio founded by Grau with an eye on making further occult films, was forced to close.\nBecause of the film\u2019s underground nature, it is debateable how much influence Nosferatu had on cinema during the first few years of its existence. Hollywood director Robert Florey had seen the film, and made an obvious attempt to imitate the climax in the 1932 Universal picture Murders in the Rue Morgue, where the shadow of the vampire was unsuccessfully replaced with the shadow of a man in a monkey suit. Universal\u2019s Dracula, on the other hand, shows no sign of having been coloured by Grau and Murnau\u2019s interpretation.\nLon Chaney in London After Midnight.\nThat said, Dracula director Tod Browning had brought a more Orlok-like vampire to the screen prior to Lugosi\u2019s turn. In 1927, Browning directed London After Midnight, in which Lon Chaney\u2014the fabled Man of a Thousand Faces, whose other roles included the Phantom of the Opera and the Hunchback of Notre Dame\u2014portrayed Hollywood\u2019s first screen vampire.\nWhile the cinema of Weimar Germany was filled with otherworldly beings, America\u2019s silent-era film industry was leery about supernatural subjects. If studios were to attempt stories of ghosts or devils, they were expected to rationalise these spooks as being merely men in costumes, as in The Cat and the Canary (1927) or Seven Footprints to Satan (1929); only with the Lugosi Dracula in 1931 was this taboo broken. London After Midnight, as per tradition, reveals Chaney\u2019s \u201cvampire\u201d to be merely a detective using an elaborate disguise to scare a confession out of a criminal.\nStill, Chaney\u2019s make-up job as the false vampire is impressive, enough so that his appearance remains iconic even though the film has long been lost. Surviving stills show him as a manic ghoul with wide eyes staring from darkened sockets, a cape shaped like the wings of a bat, and a mouth filled with pointed teeth. He looks distinct from Max Schreck\u2019s Orlok, but it is easy to imagine the two ghouls as close relatives, with Bela Lugosi existing on a more distant branch of the vampire family tree. Of the two main archetypes, though, it is the latter that came out on top: when Browning remade London After Midnight in 1935 as Mark of the Vampire, the Lon Chaney role went to Lugosi.\nVampyr and Marguerite Chopin\nBut even as Lugosi was establishing himself in the public imagination as the definitive Dracula, the silent vampire had one last gasp in the form of Carl Theodore Dreyer\u2019s 1932 film Vampyr.\nVampyr was Dreyer\u2019s first sound picture, and he designed it to be easily translated into different languages, with minimal spoken dialogue and heavy use of onscreen captions. Consequently, it has the overall feel of a silent film. Meanwhile, the influence of Universal\u2019s Dracula\u2014almost inescapable across the following generation of vampire films\u2014is nowhere to be seen. Vampyr, like Nosferatu, has the feel of an age-old folktale somehow captured on film.\nVampyr\u2019s credited source material is In a Glass Darkly, an 1872 collection of short stories by Irish author J. Sheridan Le Fanu. Out of all the tales in this volume, Vampyr\u2019s most obvious debt is to the vampire story Carmilla. Dreyer ignored much of Carmilla\u2019s overall plot but borrowed a number of now-familiar ingredients: dreamlike apparitions of a vampire, an ailing victim of the undead, and the final ritual of a stake driven into a heart. As Bram Stoker is generally agreed to have been influenced by Carmilla, Le Fanu\u2019s story could be described as a common ancestor to both Nosferatu and Vampyr.\nMarguerite Chopin (Henriette G\u00e9rard) and her henchman, the doctor (Jan Hieronimko).\nThe plot follows a character, named either Allan Gary or David Gary depending on print, as he visits the small French village of Courtempierre and finds that is being terrorised by a vampire named Marguerite Chopin. Played by silver-haired, stern-faced Henriette G\u00e9rard, Chopin looks nothing like the girlish vampiress of Le Fanu\u2019s Carmilla and more like a conventional wicked witch.\nAs with many of the performers in Dreyer\u2019s films, G\u00e9rard was not a professional actor. Ralph Holm, Dreyer\u2019s assistant, discovered her quite by accident, as recounted in Jean and Dale Drum\u2019s book on Dreyer, My Only Great Passion:\n[Holm] searched far and wide with no success, looking in the less attractive parts of Paris for a sufficiently evil-looking old lady. A long trek through the filthiest alleys of the city had led him to find his latest possibility hopelessly drunk, and he was ready to give up. That afternoon, he went to the home of an actress and, as she was not home, her mother answered the door. \u2018There stood my vampire and I seized her immediately.\u2019\nCavorting shades in Vampyr.\nLike Nosferatu, Vampyr uses a book read by the characters to establish its version of vampire lore. The book reveals that a vampire can control the shades of executed criminals; this is illustrated when Gray catches sight of a running figure reflected in a river, even though no-one else is around\u2014where Stoker had a man with no reflection, Dreyer has a reflection with no man. Gray follows the image and comes to a building, filled with disembodied shadows: one digs with a shovel; another climbs a ladder; still another plays a fiddle, causing yet more shadows to cavort in a Danse Macabre for the age of camera tricks. Finally, the vampire Chopin enters the building and tells the unruly shades to be quiet.\nAmongst Chopin\u2019s minions is a gunman with the ability to detach his shadow and send it on dark errands. This shade shoots dead a man who lives in a nearby manor, and Grau intervenes to help protect the two daughters of the victim. One, L\u00e9one, has already fallen under the spell of the vampire; the other, Gis\u00e9le, appears to spend much of the film in a state of shock.\nLike Ellen Hutter in Nosferatu, L\u00e9one begins sleepwalking; at one point Gray and Gis\u00e9le find her lying outside, with Chopin stooping over her neck before being chased away. This sequence is unusual, as it is one of the rare moments where Vampyr resembles later, more familiar entries in the genre. After this, L\u00e9one begins sporting a weird, malicious grin, indicating that she is becoming a Carmilla-like vampire.\nMarguerite Chopin and her victim L\u00e9one (Rena Mandel).\nL\u00e9one comes under the vampire\u2019s spell.\nIn Dreyer\u2019s interpretation, the ultimate aim of a vampire is not to kill their victim directly, but to drive their victim to suicide. L\u00e9one sinks further into despair; her path to self-destruction is sped on its way by the village doctor, who is secretly a servant of Chopin. The doctor tries to leave a bottle of poison by L\u00e9one\u2019s bed, but the sleeping Gray is alerted to this plan when he dreams of an animated skeleton carrying the bottle, and wakes up to thwart the doctor.\nOne of the household servants reads the book and learns about mysterious deaths that has occurred in Courtempierre previously; doctors blamed the plague, but many locals pinned the deaths on Marguerite Chopin. Notorious in life for unspecified crimes, Chopin refused sacraments as she died\u2014rather like the vampire in Albin Grau\u2019s article. Having learned the name of the supernatural wrongdoer, the servant and Gray each head to Chopin\u2019s grave. They hammer a stake into the heart of her preserved body, which then dissolves into a skeleton. Finally, the ghost of the girls\u2019 father\u2014represented by an enormous face and accompanied by thunder and lightning\u2014appears before Chopin\u2019s two henchmen, who flee in terror. The gunman falls down the stairs and dies, while the doctor reaches his end when he is suffocated beneath a pile of flour while hiding in a mill.\nPerhaps the most famous scene in Vampyr is the one in which Gray, having fallen asleep, has an out-of-body experience where he sees himself being placed in a coffin with a glass window. This sequence was lifted not from Carmilla but from another Le Fanu story, The Room in the Dragon Volant; small surprise, then, that it has almost no bearing on the overall plot of the film. But then, Dreyer spends much of Vampyr going off on strange narrative tangents, adding a sense of dreamlike intangibility to what is essentially a straightforward (if often unorthodox) vampire tale.\nWith its stylistic experimentation, Vampyr has inspired few imitators, despite being universally regarded as a classic. Nosferatu has been remade, homaged and spoofed many times, with Orlok\u2019s bald pate and pointed ears turning up in countless works from Buffy the Vampire Slayer to The Fast Show, but few if any filmmakers have recreated Marguerite Chopin and her cavorting shadows.\nThe Legacy of the Silent Vampire\nAfter he played Dracula onscreen, Bela Lugosi became the go-to choice for vampires. As well as the aforementioned Mark of the Vampire in 1935, Lugosi starred in The Return of the Vampire in 1943. He later resorted to self-parody in Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein and Mother Riley Meets the Vampire, before donning a black cape one last time for footage that ended up in the infamous Plan 9 from Outer Space. Along the way he inspired countless respectful homages and loving spoofs; few would deny that he is the definitive screen vampire.\nBut at the same time, Lugosi\u2019s predecessors carry a faith in their subject matter, a sense of an underlying reality, that is missing from many later vampire films. Carl Dreyer, director of Vampyr, once remarked that \u201ca director must believe in the truth of his subject: he must believe in vampires and miracles.\u201d Roger Ebert commented that Nosferatu \u201cseems to really believe in vampires.\u201d In the 1960s, critic Ado Kyrou humorously suggested that Count Orlok was, in fact, played by a vampire\u2014an idea that later formed the plot of the 2000 film Shadow of the Vampire. Even London After Midnight, in which the undead characters turn out to be frauds, spawned an urban legend alleging that some of the cast members were true vampires.\nBela Lugosi is what we imagine a vampire to look like on film. But the likes of Orlok, perhaps, are what we imagine a vampire to really look like.",

TF-X concepts pictured at IDEF 2013. Source: IHS/Nick de Larrinaga\nTurkey's Undersecretariat for Defence Industries (SSM) issued a request for information (RfI) on 13 March to formally start preliminary design work on its ambitious Turkish Fighter Aircraft (TF-X) programme.\nThe RfI calls for \"the indigenous design, development, and production activities of the first Turkish Fighter Aircraft to meet Turkish Armed Forces' next generation fighter requirements\".\nThe TF-X aircraft is intended to replace Turkey's existing Lockheed Martin F-16 fighter aircraft in the 2030s. The RfI call is open to \"companies/organisations which are capable to design, develop, and/or manufacture 5th Generation Fighter Aircraft\". The preliminary design work of TF-X fighter is estimated to cost about USD500 million, with a first prototype planned for 2023.\nThere are understood to be about nine companies interested in the programme, including Lockheed Martin, Shenyang Aircraft Corporation, Dassault, BAE Systems, and Saab. Those interested are required to respond to the RfI by 20 March.\nThe SSM is expected to issue a request for proposal (RFP) for the TF-X in the third quarter of 2015, with local defence industry sources telling IHS Jane's that this may culminate with the selection of a winner before the end of this year.\nWhether the fighter aircraft will have single or twin engines will be decided over time and in parallel to preliminary design work. Among three concepts developed include the development of a single-engine, single-seat, 9 g capable fifth-generation jet fighter. Twin-engine prototypes are said to be about 60% more expensive and more time-consuming to produce.\nTurkish Aerospace Industries (TAI), in co-operation with Saab, has previously completed the conceptual design work for the TF-X at a cost of around USD20 million\nTurkey issues RfI for ambitious TF-X fighter project - IHS Jane's 360\nTurkey Receives Second A400M Middle East & Africa Defense Forum 1 Dec 28, 2014\nHamas chief lauds Turkey as \u2018source of power\u2019 for Muslims Middle East & Africa 2 Dec 28, 2014\nC Turkey's FNSS started delivery of Pars AV-8 vehicles for Malaysia Middle East & Africa Defense Forum 3 Dec 20, 2014\nTurkey Receives Second A400M\nHamas chief lauds Turkey as \u2018source of power\u2019 for Muslims\nTurkey's FNSS started delivery of Pars AV-8 vehicles for Malaysia\nStarted by Cabatli_53",

        "raw_content": "when in doubt, reach for a conspiracy?\nAlex Jones and his fan club are apparently convinced that the drought in California is a sinister New World Order experiment.\nJust in case you\u2019ve been taking a year-long vacation from the news, the state of California is as dry as the bleached bone in a Western\u2019s foreshadowing of a long, slow death in the desert. The last time it rained in LA was almost three months ago. The time before that? Sometime in April, maybe? Coming from the often rainy, lousy with thunderstorms Central Ohio, rain is an exciting event now. This is especially true as the Sierra Nevada snowpack is the lowest it\u2019s been in 500 years and the drought is the worst in over 1,200 years. Of course looking at what\u2019s going on all over the American Southwest and in Alaska, where native towns are being flooded a little more every year and the permafrost is starting to thaw, you could point to global warming. With much of the last decade and a half breaking records for warmest year ever and the hottest summer in recorded history just coming to a close, it seems like a reasonable conclusion. But if that\u2019s really just too establishment for you, you can join the Alex Jones crowd in blaming chemtrails and the shady government agencies behind it diverting rain from the Southwest to do\u2026 something.\nUnlike the right wing\u2019s favorite conspiracy theory that global warming in a hoax to impose some sort of communist New World Order led by the UN, the idea that the government is in charge of weather lacks even the smallest kernel of plausibility behind it. It\u2019s one of those rare ideas that\u2019s not even wrong because it\u2019s based on a profound lack of understanding of basic physics. Cloud seeding is a real thing and it\u2019s been tried. But it\u2019s effect is the exact opposite of what Jones and his acolytes have been claiming. It actually induces rain from clouds that just need a push to let loose with a torrent of precipitation and has been employed in experiments to try and divert the paths of hurricanes and increase rainfall for crop irrigation. Its track record is very uneven, it\u2019s a very debatable notion that it has any measurable effect and every paper arguing that it could do all sorts of amazing things has so far been proven wrong in the real world. Weather systems on our planet are just far too energetic for a little dusting of silver compounds to dramatically affect them, and way too turbulent to be predictable enough for real geoengineering applications.\nEven more importantly, chemtrails, a bugaboo of conspiracy theorists who don\u2019t know how very simple water vapor forms contrails in the wake of jet engines, are completely unusable for cloud seeding. As mentioned before, silver compounds is what researchers would use and seeding is not going to produce any sort of wispy contrail. In fact, it would be invisible to your naked eye. If you want clouds to accept foreign materials, you have to release a very fine mist of them so the wind keeps them aloft and lets them mix into the cloud. Jets of them would simply dissipate into a kind of snow scattered by the winds, and eventually fall back to Earth as pollution. And it gets even worse when HAARP gets dragged into the picture. How exactly a nuclear launch detector and sensor array meant to study the ionosphere changes the weather has never actually been explained, but just like Yosemite Sam, they don\u2019t know how it\u2019s done it but they know it\u2019s done it and nothing is going to convince them otherwise. It looks weird and most of what it does is held to be classified, therefore, it\u2019s fair game to be and do anything in a pet conspiracy theory.\nAdding the final cherry on top of this insipid mess are the many contradictory motives for those nefarious powers that be to do any sort of weather manipulation. In one breath they\u2019re trying to control the planet\u2019s resources under a military junta, in another they\u2019re trying to slow down and reverse global warming, in a third they\u2019re following some sort of master plan only they have full access to but it apparently involves seemingly random droughts and storms. Why, why, oh why, in the name of Cthulhu\u2019s mouth tentacle polish, must the concept of pumping trillions of tons of greenhouse gases warming the atmosphere and exacerbating climate extremes by altering our typical weather patterns be met with cries of malevolent government weather manipulation that seem ripped straight out of comic books? Is it so the conspiracy theorists can think they\u2019re plain smarter than everyone else? I know Jones\u2019 and Mike Adams\u2019 motivation in all this, cashing in on another conspiracy since neither haven\u2019t met one with which they weren\u2019t immediately in lust as the cash from advertisers and viewers comes pouring in, but what about those who won\u2019t make even a penny on this hysteria? Why does weather, of all things, get them so worked up?\n# oddities // california / cloud seeding / conspiracy / drought",

        "raw_content": "The official promotional video for \"Our Town: Morgan County.\"\nWOUB to Premiere \u2018Our Town: Morgan County\u2019 March 24\nOn Sunday, March 24 at 3 p.m., WOUB will host a free viewing of Our Town: Morgan County in the Twin Cities Opera House (15 West Main Street, McConnelsville), the latest installment in Emmy-award winning WOUB producer Evan Shaw\u2019s Our Town documentary series. The documentary will be shown on WOUB-TV on Monday, March 25 at 8 p.m. EST.\nShaw said that he started the Morgan County installment of the series as he starts many of the documentaries, focusing on the glacier that carved out the region\u2019s valleys and peaks many hundreds of thousands of years ago.\n\u201cThe movement of the glacier exposed seams of coal and clay, and brick and salt,\u201d he said. \u201cThe glacier, and the way it moves and melts, starts to explain why this region is the way that it is; the geography and geology of the of the region influences who comes here and what they are able to do.\u201d\nThe geography of the region is intertwined with the history of Morgan County; especially in terms of the Muskingum River, on which the first European settlers travelled on to Morgan County from Marietta, where there is a confluence of the Ohio and Muskingum Rivers starting in the late 1700s. The arrival of the settlers set into motion some very serious conflicts with the inhabitants of the land; conflicts that would go on to shape the entire history of Ohio.\n\u201cThere were a few conflicts in Morgan County, like the Massacre at Big Bottom,\u201d said Shaw, referencing the 1791 conflict between settlers moving into land that was inhabited by Native Americans. The conflict resulted in the death of 12-14 settlers, and was the impetus for the Northwest Indian War of the late 1700s, which ultimately led to the Battle of Fallen Timbers on August 20, 1794. That conflict led to the signing of the Treaty of Greenville (among other treaties,) which ultimately pushed the native inhabitants out of the region to make room for settlers.\nShaw said that his work researching Morgan County, he discovered numerous fascinating personalities from the region. One of them is Howard Chandler Christy, an artist famous for the creation of \u201cthe Christy girl,\u201d a successor to the Gibson Girl of the late 1800s, depicting what was considered the ideal female beauty standard. Perhaps one of his most famous works is the \u201cScene at the Signing of the Constitution of the United States,\u201d painted in 1940. If you don\u2019t think you know it, you probably do, just Google it!\nAnother eclectic Morgan County celebrity was McDonald Birch, a magician born in 1902 who was close friends with the likes of Houdini and Thurston.\n\u201c(Birch) was supposed to sort of take the mantel in terms of magic, after Houdini and Thurston in the early \u201820s,\u201d said Shaw. \u201cMacDonald and his wife, Mabel Sperry, who billed herself as the world\u2019s best female xylophonist, travelled around the world performing MacDonald\u2019s signature trick, which was making a pony disappear.\u201d\nShaw said that, as with all of the Our Town installments, there was far more history to Morgan County than he could possibly ever hope to fit into the documentary. He did manage to squeeze quite a bit in, though, from conflicts with the Native Americans early on in the area\u2019s history to the rich history that Morgan County has in terms of Underground Railroad stops to the Quaker community that was in Chester Hill, and much more.\nSunday Afternoon Marks Successful Premiere of \u2018Our Town: Jackson\u2019 \u2018Our Town: Athens\u2019 Debuts on WOUB-TV, Monday, March 26 at 8 Newest Our Town Episode Featuring Jackson Premieres March 26 and 27 WOUB\u2019s Evan Shaw Creates Historical \u201cOur Town: Nelsonville\u201d",

But if you asked me today, yeah, this is my last year,\u201d he said. \u201cAt some point, you\u2019ve got to eventually walk away from the game and start the second half of your life.\u201d\nRe-signing with Bills was essentially a formality after both Alexander and the Bills openly discussed the likelihood of him returning for a fourth season in Buffalo and 13th in the NFL.\nFor the Bills, they retain a versatile, experienced player, who also helps patch over a leadership void after defensive tackle Kyle Williams\u2019 decision to retire.\nFor Alexander, he gets to continue building on the valuable role he carved out for himself both on and off the field on a team that helped revive his career.\n\u201cI\u2019m definitely fortunate and blessed to be having this opportunity at the age of 36 now,\u201d he said, referring to how old he\u2019ll be next season, \u201cbecause many guys don\u2019t get to play this long here in the NFL.\u201d\nAlexander was an undrafted free agent out of California and split 2005 and \u201906 with Carolina and Baltimore before finally landing a roster spot with Washington in 2007, where he played through 2012. He split the next three years with Arizona, where he was sidelined by a season-ending foot injury, and Oakland, before signing with Buffalo in 2016.\nInitially brought in to fill a special teams role in Buffalo, Alexander was so productive during the offseason he earned a starting job and finished with a career-best 12\u00bd sacks in Rex Ryan\u2019s final year as coach.\nAlexander has remained a regular since Sean McDermott took over, and is coming off a season in which he had 6\u00bd sacks and a career-best two interceptions in starting eight of 16 games.\nJust as important, he\u2019s played a role in grooming Buffalo\u2019s up-and-coming youngsters, including middle linebacker Tremaine Edmunds.\nAlexander sees the Bills moving in the right direction despite a 6-10 finish, following an offseason in which Buffalo continued restocking its roster with youth. The offense showed signs of progress under rookie quarterback Josh Allen, and the defense finished second in the NFL in yards allowed.\n\u201cI don\u2019t think we\u2019re that far off,\u201d Alexander said.\nThe Bills also re-signed offensive lineman Jeremiah Sirles to a one-year contract. The fourth-year player signed with Buffalo in late September, and had five starts in 12 games.",

        "raw_content": "Los Angeles Times September 23, 2010\nA sharply political play about the nature of tyranny and the human imperative for connection, \u201cLa Raz\u00f3n Blindada\u201d (Armored Reason), at the 24th Street Theatre, is a truly international production, co-produced by 24th Street Theatre and Mexico\u2019s Instituto de Cultura de Baja California and La Universidad Aut\u00f3noma de Sinaloa. Presented in Spanish with English supertitles, the play sheds glaring light on some of history\u2019s darkest corners, in this instance, the brutal military regime in Argentina that extended from the 1970s to 1983.\nForced into exile during that period, writer-director Arist\u00eddes Vargas writes from the deeply personal perspective of one who has suffered under a system gone mad. \u201cRaz\u00f3n\u201d was inspired by his brother, imprisoned and tortured during Argentina\u2019s \u201cDirty War.\u201d Languishing in isolation, he was allotted an hour each Sunday to interact with his fellow prisoners \u2013 time spent acting out stories, their hedge against despair.\nVargas\u2019 harrowing, surprisingly funny piece centers around two political prisoners who escape into the world of Cervantes\u2019 \u201cDon Quixote.\u201d Jes\u00fas Casta\u00f1os-Chima plays De La Mancha, a cerebral individual on the verge of madness. Arturo D\u00edaz de Sandy is Panza, a comical character desperately trying to keep his friend sane \u2013 for his own sake as much as anything else. The actors are faultless, fully fleshing out the contours of Vargas\u2019 economical staging.\nEchoes of Kakfa and Beckett resound throughout in effusive, elliptical interchanges that are often nonsensical, sometimes didactic. The sheer spate of verbiage makes the supertitles a bit daunting for non-Spanish-speakers, but despite that barrier, the effect is hallucinatory, trance-inducing and surreal, an absurdist construct that hammers home man\u2019s gross capacity for inhumanity -- and his transcendent ability to endure.\n-- F.

        "raw_content": "Ontario working out details on how rules around new pot plan would be enforced\nA day after announcing plans to sell recreational cannabis in private stores, the Ontario government said it was still working out how strict regulations governing the new system would be enforced. Cannabis buds lay along a drying rack at the CannTrust Niagara Greenhouse Facility in Fenwick, Ont., on Tuesday, June 26, 2018. THE CANADIAN PRESS/ Tijana Martin\nTORONTO \u2013 A day after announcing plans to sell recreational cannabis in private stores, the Ontario government said it was still working out how strict regulations governing the new system would be enforced.\nTalks with municipalities will help the province determine the details, said the Progressive Conservatives, who stressed that public safety was a key component of the distribution system that alters the previous administration\u2019s plan to have pot only in publicly owned outlets.\n\u201cWe\u2019re consulting with the municipalities today and there will be more information after our consultations,\u201d said Finance Minister Vic Fedeli, adding that much depends on those discussions.\nThe province has said that recreational cannabis will initially only be sold online in Ontario when it is legalized on Oct. 17. A \u201ctightly regulated\u201d private retail model will then be in place by April 1, 2019.\nThe OCS will be the wholesaler to private retail stores, the government said, noting that retailers will have to follow strict rules, including prohibiting the sale of marijuana to anyone under 19.\nFedeli said the OCS, which until Monday had been in charge of setting up government-run pot stores planned under the former Liberal regime, had spent $6.7 million and hired 50 employees. The work done so far by the OCS will be re-directed to the new Tory plan and some of those employees will be transferred to other jobs in the public sector, he said.\nThe finance minister didn\u2019t have an estimate for how much money the government would save by abandoning the publicly-owned model and letting private business shoulder the cost to set up pot shops.\n\u201cWe\u2019ll have more details when we announce the retail rollout,\u201d he said. \u201cBut there\u2019s considerable savings in terms of not building bricks and mortar stores across Ontario. The private retail sector will be responsible for the construction.\u201d\nPat Vanini, executive director for the Association of Municipalities Ontario, said members of her organization have many questions about the government\u2019s new plan and are eager to get answers with the legalization date looming.\nVanini said it may be difficult for municipalities to engage in pot-related consultations over the next few months as local elections are set to be held in the fall and new councils won\u2019t be sworn in until December.\nBut, she said, local governments are eager to get plans in place.\n\u201cThey know Oct. 17 is coming. They\u2019ve got to be ready for that in some form or fashion anyway,\u201d she said. \u201cSo, how do we drive to April and make it work as best as we can?\u201d\nVanini said before the previous Liberal government had announced its public distribution plan, AMO\u2019s members supported a private retail model, believing it would help give cities and towns more control over the burgeoning industry.\n\u201cMunicipal governments would have an ability to direct where some of the better locations would be or where they shouldn\u2019t be,\u201d she said. \u201cYou could manage it through the planning process.\u201d\nAMO, which holds its annual conference in Ottawa next week, has long had a taskforce dedicated to investigating cannabis legalization and the latest Tory plan will be looked at closely, she said.\nChief among the association\u2019s questions is whether $40 million in funding promised by the province for municipalities to support them through cannabis legalization will be enough to cover bylaw enforcement, public health services and other emergency call-related costs.\n\u201cWe\u2019re going to do the best we can with what we get,\u201d she said. \u201cDoes it mean there won\u2019t be some other impacts in terms of municipal expenditures? We don\u2019t know that yet \u2026 There is skepticism that municipal costs will be totally met by the $40 million.\u201d\nNDP Leader Andrea Horwath said the government has provided few details when it comes to its plan and she\u2019s hopeful the consultations with municipalities will spell out in greater detail how enforcement will be managed and public safety will be achieved.\n\u201cWe\u2019re looking forward to hearing what their public consultation is going to look like,\u201d she said. \u201cWe\u2019re hoping that it\u2019s going to be a public, open, transparent consultation that not only involves people and communities but also involves the legislative process.\u201d\nLiberal legislator Nathalie Des Rosiers said the Tories have launched what appears to be a complex plan that could result in a \u201cmish-mash\u201d of retail locations across the province. She added that municipalities may have to shoulder a large financial burden to enforce the new system.\n\u201cIt\u2019s unclear where the money will come from on the enforcement side, but also the public education side,\u201d she said.\nThe legal age to buy recreational cannabis in Ontario will remain 19 and consumers will only be allowed to use legalized pot in a private residence, including the outdoor space of the home. The maximum amount of recreational marijuana an adult can possess will be 30 grams.",

        "raw_content": "Forums > The Garage > Accord Tech >\nTransmission woes. (DD)\nDiscussion in 'Accord Tech' started by SupraGuy, Nov 8, 2017.\nNov 8, 2017 at 1:22 PM #1\nMy transmission seems like it's not long for this world.\nYesterday, after driving home without incident, speeds up to 120km/h (75mph) I got back in the car, and when accelerating from a stop, the jar started to judder. If I kept the acceleration to an absolute bare minimum, I could keep it from doing it, but it really wasn't able to tolerate much at all.\nIt doesn't appear to matter which (forward) gear the transmission is in. It seems to be primarily at low speed/low gearing, I hadn't experienced it at speeds over 40km/h (25mph) but by then, I was being really light on the pedal.\nIt seemed to be a bit better this morning, and I was able to drive to work without incident, but I also stayed really easy on the pedal, much to the annoyance of some people who were behind me at the light.\nI'd had other problems last spring, which seemed to be better when the weather was warmer. When coming to a stop, there would be a \"clunk\" as I was either nearly at a stop, or shortly after coming to a stop. Getting off of the brake and back on the gas before this \"clunk\" would result in something that felt kind of like a neutral drop, or suddenly dropping a clutch. As I said, it was worse in cold weather, and when the transmission was cold. Over the summer, the problem was mostly gone, and I didn't pay it much attention. It started doing it again when the temperature started going below freezing at night, and now it's cold all the time, so I've just been really careful about when/how I get back on the gas when stopping.\nAutomatic transmissions are not my strong suit. I'd switch to a manual if I had my choice, but since this is an inexpensive daily driver for me, I am not looking to do a whole lot with it. I'm not even sure that I want to do the work of swapping in a transmission (If that's what I need) nor do I really have the time. I'd like to avoid scrapping the car, but if the transmission is toast, that may be where I'm at.\nRealizing that there seem to be no shortage of transmission issues in these cars, is there any point in looking for a wrecker transmission?\nThat low speed juddering was like the one-week warning for my original transmission in Connie at 344k, so pretty similar mileage as your sig shows. It got worse and rapidly became undriveable. Clutch packs were toast.\nI just picked up a 98 for $350 because it needed a transmission; the previous owner JUST spent thousands having a scrapyard transmission put it. It lasted him about a month before is started slipping out of gear and banging; basically undriveable unless you stick the selector in \"2\". You can see my progress with it in my transmission thread.\nWhen I drained the fluid, it looked like mud. Brown mud. I used a clean drain pan, and after emptying it into a used washer fluid bottle, the bottom of the pan was full of gold-coloured debris; some chunks a few mm in diameter.\nUnless you can get your wrecker to at least give you a 90 day warranty, I wouldn't bother. I replaced Connie's with a scrapyard trans and got lucky (gonna hit 502k this evening; still shifts nice), the guy I just got the $350 car from didn't get so lucky (only made it 3k km after replacing the trans). It's really a roll of the dice. Make sure you get the TC with the trans if you decide to go this route (or spend a few hundred on a reman; just don't reuse the one that's in there).\nIf I were you, I'd surf kijiji for a few days and see what 6g V6 cars pop up; I got a 98 sedan with a recent rebuild for $400 this spring (with receipts from the rebuild, $2k+!). They pop up all the time around here. That's assuming that you have the space for a parts car, though.\nIf you decide to replace the trans, make sure you flush the cooler lines; if there's chunks of crap from the old trans in there, the first thing the new trans is going to do is suck them in and destroy itself. Compressed air first then a bottle of transmission flush; last time I bought it, was about $15. You'll also need like 7 or 8 946mL bottles of Honda DW-1 ATF. I just paid $99 for 8 quarts; since you're in Canada, you'll probably pay that price for that much as well. Also keep in mind that 98-99 transmissions are not interchangeable with 00-02 transmissions.\nI hate to just say your trans is fubar, but that's almost exactly the same symptoms I had the last 2 times I've had a B7XA transmission fail.\nThe good news, however, is that a full rebuild kit is only a few hundred bucks. I'm not well versed in automatics either, but I may buy the overhaul manual and give it a shot myself since it's such a common issue with the 6g. Worst case, I'll learn something lol.\nI agree with Connie, look in the Canadian version of Craig's List (Kinjii was it?), and see what you can find. Either a parts donor, or another car in your price range. You never know unless you look. Another thing to do is look for JDM transmissions. My son found a guy selling them for 345 US with a 30 day warranty. I had looked a year ago, and found some in Texas for around 500 US. E-bay might be another shot as well, as there was a guy from NJ selling them too. I'm sure somebody in the great north west is selling them (JDM) too. Sorry, I don't have any contacts in your area that I could direct you too, otherwise I would.\nNov 9, 2017 at 8:10 AM #4\n$1050 for rebuilt units with a year warranty here in the GTA.\nhttps://www.kijiji.ca/v-transmissio...ion/473959566?enableSearchNavigationFlag=true\nHere's a whole car for $250\nhttps://www.kijiji.ca/v-cars-other/...ar/1306057587?enableSearchNavigationFlag=true\nAnother one for $700; there are a bunch in this range.\nhttps://www.kijiji.ca/v-cars-trucks...v6/1302778513?enableSearchNavigationFlag=true\nI couldn't find much in Alberta, but I am sure they are around there, too.\nNov 10, 2017 at 11:51 AM #5\nWell, much as I do like the car, I don't really have much of an attachment to it, nor to the Accord in general. (The car which I do have an attachment to should be obvious, LOL) This one has a fair amount of body damage, so it's not going to be worth a lot of cash. I probably wouldn't mind the $200 or so for a wrecker transmission, even with another $100 or so for fluid.\nI guess I'm looking for a cheap used car, then.\nI'm kind of pissed off that it chose right after I bought a brand new set of tires for it to do this though. Well, if I get it hauled away, maybe I'll see if I can sell the rims/tires separately.\nNov 10, 2017 at 3:06 PM #6\nI'm sure you can; last few times I've wanted tires off a car I'm scrapping they let me take them off and brought a flatbed. You'll probably get another $100 if you drive it there yourself, have someone follow you, take off the wheels when you get there and then bring them home yourself.\nUnless you have CAA, lol, then they should take it to the wrecker for free for ya.\nGood luck with the Supra!\nKnow anyone who'd be interested in a RHD RX7? lol\nSupraGuy said: \u2191\nSounds like a cheap Camry is in your future.\nLooking at the SM for troubleshooting\n\"Vehicle moves in [2] and [R] but not in [D4], [D3], or [1] position\"\nThis seems to be the symptom that I am experiencing. It did judder in the \"does not move\" gears, but does not any longer.\n1st accumulator defective\n1st gears worn or damaged\n1st clutch defective\ninspect 1 clutch pressure.\nInspect the secondary shaft and 1st/2nd clutch assembly for wear and damage.\nInspect the clutch piston and O rings. Check the spring retainer for wear and damage. Inspect the clutch end plate-to-top disc clearance. If the clearance is out of tolerance, inspect the clutch discs and plates for wear and damage. If the discs and plates are worn of damaged, replace them as a set. If they are OK, adjust the clutch end plate clearance.\nPretty sure that I'm looking at \"1st clutch damaged\" at this point. I will maybe keep the transmission that's in it, and see if I can repair the thing. Even if the wrecker transmission doesn't pan out, I may be able to get a running car out of it yet. Well, I've never tried a repair of an automatic transmission before, so it's more likely that I'll just have the car in the yard for an extra year.\nStill contemplating the wrecker transmission route. If I get one that's been scrapped for body damage, it was probably at least running when it got hit. It's a crap shoot for sure, but still cheaper than another car, which may end up with its own set of serious problems and non-driveability.\nIn the meantime, I've got access to another car that I can borrow, just as soon as I replace a wheel bearing.\nI'd rather replace a wheel bearing than a trans. But, it'll buy you time, and keep your Supra out of the weather (snow and ice), where it could get damaged.\nIt's often been said that the cheapest car to own is the car you own. Given that I own this one, I'll be repairing it.\nThe good news so far though is that so long as I start off in [2], the car seems to be okay. So long as second gear doesn't die, at least I can drive it.\nMy decision is based off of the uncertainty that another car with a cost of less than $1,000 brings with it, namely the probability that there are other problems just waiting to (or have already come to) surface. I've had some pretty good luck with low dollar used cars, but most of them needed something before they were road worthy in terms of parts and labour. In this case, I know what it needs, and I have a pretty good handle on the condition of the rest of the vehicle. It's not great, but it's manageable.\nI'm curious about the difference between the '98-'99 transmission, and the '00-'02 one. I see that they're different, and there are some differences pointed out in the FSM, but not with the electronics. I don't seem to have found any differences in how it connects into the car, or connects to the electronics. Axles, shift linkage, and bolt mounting all seem to be described the same, just some differences with parts that need to be moved to drop the transmission.\nIf they did something better with the newer transmissions, it might be worth investigating, but I don't think that I'll take the chance. I'll grab a transmission from one of the same year if there's a good candidate, or from a '98 if that one seems better. I still think I'm probably okay if I stick to cars that look like they were scrapped from being hit.",

Stones containing Si, Na, K are poor while that containing Mg, Ca, and Fe are good, as they are harder. If the stone is composed of soft and unhardened materials it will result in a soft materials and vice versa. The amount of soft and hard material in a specific sample of stone also matters.\nBeing cheap, hard, durable and naturally good looking, stones are often used in construction but keeping in view the variable properties of stones of different types, there must be some criteria for the selection of stones for construction. The criteria is based upon the following parameters: Chemical composition of stone: Strength and hardness, Durability, Resistance\nNotes, Stones, Types of, Building Construction\nThe art of building a structure in stone with any suitable masonry is called stone masonry. Stone masonry may be broadly classified into the following two types: 1. Rubble Masonry 2. Ashlar Masonry.

The FEP handles the cost of therapy in an outpatient rehab, but you are responsible for the rest. They always ask for certification, so you need to go through this before seeking residential treatment.\nThere are no shortages of drug and alcohol treatment options and services in the state of California, and many of these programs are covered by different health insurance providers in the state. There are just over six different drug and alcohol rehab programs in the state that will be able to accept Blue Cross and Blue Shield health insurance. These drug treatment programs can help treat adolescents and adults through residential and outpatient drug and alcohol rehab. Long-term and short-term treatment programs are available, and there are also services for addicts caught up in the criminal-justice system and those addicts who have been charged with a DUI or a DWI. Addicts can also have their medical and drug detox programs covered by their health insurance, and this can help them get ready for a drug and alcohol treatment program where they can handle the physical and mental aspects of addiction.\nBelow you can find a listing of programs covered by Blue Cross/Blue Shield Insurance in California.

        "title": "Heart Failure - Adventist HealthCare",
        "raw_content": "Home > Healthy Living > Health Library > Heart Failure\nHeart failure means that your heart muscle doesn't pump as much blood as your body needs. Failure doesn't mean that your heart has stopped. It means that your heart is not pumping as well as it should.\nBecause your heart cannot pump well, your body tries to make up for it. To do this:\nYour body holds on to salt and water. This increases the amount of blood in your bloodstream.\nYour heart may get bigger.\nYour body has an amazing ability to make up for heart failure. It may do such a good job that you don't know you have a disease. But at some point, your heart and body will no longer be able to keep up. Then fluid starts to build up in your body, and you have symptoms like feeling weak and out of breath.\nThis fluid buildup is called congestion. It's why some doctors call the disease congestive heart failure.\nHeart failure usually gets worse over time. But treatment can slow the disease and help you feel better and live longer.\nAnything that damages your heart or affects how well it pumps can lead to heart failure. Common causes of heart failure are:\nOther conditions that can lead to heart failure include:\nDiseases of the heart muscle (cardiomyopathies).\nDisease of the sac around the heart (pericardial disease), such as pericarditis.\nA slow, fast, or uneven heart rhythm (arrhythmia).\nA heart problem that you were born with (congenital heart defect).\nLong-term alcohol abuse, which can damage your heart.\nSymptoms of heart failure start to happen when your heart cannot pump enough blood to the rest of your body. In the early stages, you may:\nFeel tired easily.\nBe short of breath when you exert yourself.\nFeel like your heart is pounding or racing (palpitations).\nFeel weak or dizzy.\nAs heart failure gets worse, fluid starts to build up in your lungs and other parts of your body. This may cause you to:\nFeel short of breath even at rest.\nHave swelling (edema), especially in your legs, ankles, and feet.\nGain weight. This may happen over just a day or two, or more slowly.\nCough or wheeze, especially when you lie down.\nFeel bloated or sick to your stomach.\nIf your symptoms suddenly get worse, you will need emergency care.\nYour doctor may diagnose heart failure based on your symptoms and a physical exam. But you will need tests to find the cause and type of heart failure so that you can get the right treatment. These tests may include:\nA chest X-ray.\nAn electrocardiogram (EKG or ECG) to check your heart's electrical system.\nAn echocardiogram to see the size and shape of your heart and how well it is pumping.\nMagnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to see the structure of your heart and check how well it is pumping.\nAn echocardiogram can help show if you have heart failure, what type it is, and what is causing it. Your doctor can also use it to see if your heart failure is getting worse.\nThis test can measure how much blood your heart pumps to your body. This measurement is called the ejection fraction. If your ejection fraction gets lower and you are having more symptoms, it means that your heart failure is getting worse.\nMost people with heart failure need to take several medicines. Your doctor may prescribe medicines to:\nHelp keep heart failure from getting worse. These drugs include ACE inhibitors, angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs), beta-blockers, and vasodilators like hydralazine and a nitrate.\nReduce symptoms so you feel better. These drugs include diuretics (water pills) and digoxin.\nTreat the cause of your heart failure.\nIt is very important to take your medicines exactly as your doctor tells you to. If you don't, your heart failure could get worse.\nPacemaker or defibrillator\nA pacemaker or a defibrillator (such as an ICD) may be an option for you if you have a problem with your heart rhythm. A pacemaker can help your heart pump blood better. A defibrillator can prevent a dangerous heart-rhythm problem.\nLifestyle changes are an important part of treatment. They can help slow down heart failure. They may also help control other diseases that make heart failure worse, such as high blood pressure, diabetes, and coronary artery disease.\nThe best steps you can take are to:\nEat less sodium. Sodium causes your body to hold on to water and may make symptoms worse. Your doctor may also ask you to limit how much fluid you drink.\nGet regular exercise. Your doctor can tell you what level of exercise is safe for you, how to check your pulse, and how to know if you are doing too much.\nTake rest breaks during the day.\nLose weight if you are overweight. Even a few pounds can make a difference.\nStop smoking. Smoking damages your heart and makes exercise harder to do.\nLimit alcohol. Ask your doctor how much, if any, is safe.\nAsk your doctor if cardiac rehab is right for you. Rehab can give you education and support that help you learn self-care and build new healthy habits, such as exercise and healthy eating.\nTo stay as healthy as possible, work closely with your doctor. Have all your tests, and go to all your appointments. It is also important to:\nTalk to your doctor before you take any new medicine, including nonprescription and prescription drugs, vitamins, and herbs. Some of them may make your heart failure worse.\nKeep track of your symptoms. Weigh yourself at the same time every day, and write down your weight. Call your doctor if you have a sudden weight gain, a change in your ability to exercise, or any sudden change in your symptoms.\nWhat can you expect if you have heart failure?\nMedicines and lifestyle changes can slow or even reverse heart failure for some people. But heart failure often gets worse over time.\nEarly on, your symptoms may not be too bad. As heart failure gets worse, you may need to limit your activities. Treatment can often help reduce symptoms, but it usually doesn't get rid of them.\nHeart failure can also lead to other health problems. These may include:\nTrouble with your heart rhythm (arrhythmia).\nMitral valve regurgitation.\nBlood clots in your legs (deep vein thrombosis) or lungs (pulmonary embolism).\nYour doctor may be able to give you medicine or other treatment to prevent or treat these problems.\nHeart failure can get worse suddenly. If this happens, you will need emergency care. To prevent sudden heart failure, you need to avoid things that can trigger it. These include eating too much salt, missing a dose of your medicine, and exercising too hard.\nKnowing that your health may get worse can be hard. It is normal to sometimes feel sad or hopeless. But if these feelings last, talk to your doctor. Antidepressant medicines, counseling, or both may help you cope.\nHeart failure can be caused by any problem that damages your heart or affects how well it works.\nProblems that damage the heart muscle\nDiabetes that isn't controlled\nAlcohol, illegal drugs (such as cocaine), and some prescription medicines (such as those for chemotherapy)\nHeart problems you've had from birth (congenital heart disease)\nInfection or inflammation of the heart muscle (such as myocarditis)\nThings that damage the heart's valves\nValve problems you've had since birth\nInfection of a heart valve (endocarditis)\nProblems with the heart's electrical system\nFast, slow, or irregular heart rhythms, including atrial fibrillation\nElectrical signals that don't flow as they should from the upper to the lower part of the heart (heart block)\nDisease of the sac around the heart (pericarditis)\nPostpartum cardiomyopathy. This rare problem can happen late in a woman's pregnancy or within the first 5 months after delivery.\nCertain triggers, such as too much sodium or not taking medicines the right way, may suddenly make heart failure worse. This can sometimes cause deadly problems such as pulmonary edema or cardiogenic shock.\nAt first you may not have any symptoms from heart failure. For a while, your heart and body can make up for heart failure. For example, your heart can pump faster and pump more blood with each beat. This is called compensation.\nBut as your heart has more trouble pumping enough blood to your body, you will likely have symptoms. These symptoms may get worse or change if your heart failure gets worse.\nSymptoms of heart failure start to happen when your heart can't pump enough blood to the rest of your body. In the early stages, you may:\nHow doctors talk about heart failure\nThere is more than one type of heart failure. Each type is based on what problem in the heart is causing it to not pump as much blood as normal.\nHeart failure is grouped\u2014or classified\u2014according to symptoms. Your treatment is based partly on what class of symptoms you have.\nThere's also another way to define heart failure. It's based on the stages you might go through as your heart failure gets worse. Your doctor also may make treatment choices based on your stage of heart failure.\nSymptoms of sudden heart failure\nSometimes your symptoms may get worse very quickly. This is called sudden heart failure. It causes fluid to build up in your lungs, causing congestion. (This is why the problem is often called congestive heart failure.) Symptoms may include:\nCoughing up foamy, pink mucus.\nSudden heart failure is an emergency. You need care right away.\nYour risk for having heart failure is higher if you have certain risk factors. A risk factor is anything that increases your chance of having a particular problem.\nHeart failure is usually caused by another health problem, often coronary artery disease or high blood pressure. So anything that increases your risk for one of those problems also increases your risk for heart failure.\nRisk factors for coronary artery disease and heart attack include smoking, having high cholesterol or diabetes, and having a family history of heart disease.\nRisk factors for high blood pressure include being overweight, being inactive, and having a family history of high blood pressure.\nRisk factors for heart valve disease include older age and an infection of the valves.\nThe risk of heart failure rises as a person gets older.\nSymptoms of sudden heart failure, such as:\nSevere shortness of breath (trouble getting a breath even when resting).\nSuddenly getting an irregular heartbeat that lasts for a while, or getting a very fast heartbeat along with dizziness, nausea, or fainting.\nFoamy, pink mucus with a cough and shortness of breath.\nSymptoms of a heart attack, such as:\nSymptoms of a stroke. These include:\nCall your doctor right away if you have a pacemaker or ICD and think you have an infection near the device. Signs of an infection include:\nChanges in the skin around your pacemaker or ICD, such as:\nFever not caused by the flu or another illness.\nCall your doctor soon if you have symptoms of heart failure, which include:\nBeing very tired or having weakness that prevents you from doing your usual activities.\nHaving breathing problems such as:\nTrouble breathing during routine activities or exercise that did not cause problems before.\nSudden shortness of breath, even if it is mild.\nShortness of breath when you lie down.\nWaking up at night with shortness of breath or feeling as though you are suffocating.\nA dry, hacking cough, especially when you lie down.\nSudden weight gain, such as more than 2 lb (0.9 kg) to 3 lb (1.4 kg) in a day or 5 lb (2.3 kg) in a week. (Your doctor may suggest a different range of weight gain.)\nIncreased fluid buildup in your body (most often in the legs).\nCall your doctor soon if:\nYour heart failure symptoms get worse.\nYou have a sudden change in symptoms.\nYou're having trouble keeping even minor symptoms under control.\nMany different types of doctors and nurses can treat you for heart failure, including your family doctor.\nHeart failure is a complex problem. So you will likely have several different tests over time. These tests can:\nFind out if you have heart failure.\nFind the cause of your heart failure.\nFind the type of heart failure you have.\nShow how bad your heart failure is (class and stage).\nSee how well your treatment is working.\nIf you have symptoms that suggest heart failure, you may have:\nA review of your medical history and a physical exam.\nElectrocardiogram (EKG, ECG).\nEchocardiogram (echo).\nBrain natriuretic peptide (BNP).\nCardiac blood pool scan.\nAn echocardiogram may be used to diagnose heart failure. It also can help guide treatment.\nTests also may be done to find areas of the heart that are not getting enough blood. These tests include:\nCardiac perfusion scan. This test can show poor blood flow to the heart.\nCardiac catheterization. This test can be used to check for blocked or narrowed heart arteries and to measure pressures inside the heart.\nWhen you're taking medicine for heart failure, you may have regular blood tests to check how the medicine is working. Or you may have a blood test to check the level of medicine in your body.\nHow Often You'll See Your Doctor for Heart Failure\nYour treatment for heart failure depends on:\nThe cause of your heart failure.\nWhich type of heart failure you have.\nHow bad your symptoms are (classification).\nHow well your body is able to make up (compensate) for your heart failure.\nYour goals, wishes, and preferences about your treatment.\nIn the early stages of heart failure, treatment can help your symptoms. It may also prevent more damage to your heart. Treatment may include:\nTaking medicines, such as a diuretic and an ACE inhibitor. To learn more, see Medications.\nMaking lifestyle changes, such as eating less salt and being more active. To learn more, see Living With Heart Failure.\nAs part of your ongoing treatment, your doctor will also try to prevent or treat problems\u2014such as fever, arrhythmia, and anemia\u2014that can lead to sudden heart failure. Treatment may include:\nGetting vaccines. Your doctor may want you to get vaccines against pneumonia and flu. These vaccines can keep you from getting infections that could put you in the hospital.\nChecking your weight. Your doctor will probably give you guidelines for watching fluid buildup and tell you how much weight gain is too much.\nGetting devices to fix heart rhythm problems. In some cases, your doctor may recommend a biventricular pacemaker that can help your heart pump blood better. This is also called cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). Or you may have an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) to stop a deadly rhythm. Some people get a pacemaker that is combined with an ICD.\nOxygen treatment. Your doctor may recommend oxygen therapy to reduce your shortness of breath and increase your ability to exercise.\nYou might take part in a disease management program. These programs include a broad range of services, such as education, home health care, visiting nurses, and rehabilitation.\nA very small number of people may have other treatments, including:\nVentricular assist devices (VADs), which help the heart pump blood.\nHeart transplant, which replaces your heart with a donor heart.\nTreatment for causes of heart failure\nIf you have other heart problems that may have led to heart failure, you might have treatment for those problems:\nCoronary artery bypass surgery or angioplasty.\nSurgery to replace or repair a valve in your heart.\nCardiac rehabilitation, a supervised program that uses exercise, education, and support to help people live well with heart failure. For more information, see the topic Cardiac Rehabilitation.\nSometimes heart failure can be fixed if another problem can be corrected, such as by treating hyperthyroidism.\nHeart failure tends to get worse over time. So you need to decide what kind of care you want at the end of your life.\nYou will need to decide if you want life-support measures if your health gets very bad. An advance directive is a legal document that tells doctors how to care for you at the end of your life. This care includes electronic devices that are used for heart failure, such as pacemakers. You also can say where you want to have care. And you can name someone who can make sure your wishes are followed.\nThe best way to prevent heart failure is to have a heart-healthy lifestyle and control existing health problems like high blood pressure and diabetes.\nDon't smoke. If you smoke, quit. Avoid secondhand smoke too.\nEat heart-healthy foods. Eat fruits, vegetables, fish, lean meats, and whole grains. Choose foods that are low in saturated fat and avoid trans fat. Limit sodium, alcohol, and sugar.\nGet regular exercise. Try to do activities that raise your heart rate. Aim for at least 2\u00bd hours of moderate exercise a week.footnote 1\nYou can feel better when you have heart failure by taking your medicines as directed, having a healthy lifestyle, and avoiding things that make heart failure worse. Know what things you can do every day to stay healthy, what symptoms to watch for, and when to call a doctor.\nQuick Tips: Self-Care for Heart Failure\nTake your medicines as directed. If you don't, your heart failure may get worse, or you may get sudden heart failure.\nTry to avoid medicines that can make your heart failure worse. Before taking any new medicine, ask your doctor or a pharmacist if it's safe to take it with your heart failure medicines.\nHaving a healthy lifestyle\nLimit sodium. Your doctor might recommend that you limit sodium to less than 2,000 mg a day. Limiting sodium can help you feel better and prevent sudden heart failure. Fluid may build up in your lungs\u2014making it harder for you to breathe\u2014and in your feet, ankles, legs, and belly.\nExercise regularly. If you aren't already active, your doctor may want you to start exercising. Do not start exercising until you have talked with your doctor to make an exercise program that is safe for you. You could do it in a cardiac rehabilitation program or on your own.\nCheck your weight at the same time every day. Checking your weight helps you keep track of your symptoms. Sudden weight gain may mean that fluid is building up in your body because your heart failure is getting worse.\nTry to lose weight if you are overweight. Eating a heart-healthy diet and exercising regularly will help you lose weight. Even a few pounds can make a difference.\nDon't smoke. If you smoke, try to quit. Smoking increases your risk for heart disease and makes it harder to exercise. Avoid secondhand smoke too.\nLimit alcohol. Moderate drinking is no more than 2 drinks a day for men and 1 drink a day for women.\nLimit your fluids if your doctor tells you to. Limiting fluid can help relieve swelling. Limiting fluid helps your body get rid of extra water and sodium.\nAvoiding things that make heart failure worse\nAvoid triggers, such as too much salt (sodium) and certain medicines, that can cause sudden heart failure.\nTreating your sleep problems\n\"I was having a lot of trouble getting enough sleep. I was snoring so bad that my wife was sleeping in another room. I'd wake up 7 times a night. Sometimes I'd wake up gasping for breath. The next day I'd be so tired that I'd fall asleep while doing my woodworking in the garage. And I was really fuzzy-headed. I couldn't remember anything.\n\"I thought it might be my heart failure. So I decided to talk to my doctor about it, and he suggested a sleep study. I found out that I have sleep apnea. I haven't been getting enough oxygen because of it. He put me on a CPAP machine at night. I've used it for the past 4 months.\n\"It took a little time to get used to sleeping with a mask. But I'm sleeping much better. Now if I wake up, it's only once, and I go right back to sleep. I feel so much better during the day.\"\u2014 Pete\nThis story is based on information gathered from many people living with heart failure.\nMany people with heart failure have trouble sleeping. Your doctor may be able to find out what is causing your sleep problems and help you get a good night's sleep.\nMost people with heart failure can still have an active and safe sex life. Talk with your doctor if you have concerns about having sex.\nUnfortunately, sexual problems are common. Your interest may drop, or you may have shortness of breath or other symptoms that limit your ability to have sex. Men may have erection problems.\nTalk to your doctor. You can get help for erection problems or other sexual troubles.\nOther things you can do to take care of yourself\nGet help for depression and anxiety if you have them. Heart failure can be hard on your emotions. Many people with heart failure feel depressed or anxious. For more information on how to feel better, see Coping With Your Feelings.\nTry sometips for easier breathing, such as propping yourself up with pillows at night.\nAvoid colds and the flu.Stay up to date on vaccines for flu and pneumonia.\nLearn to save your energy to make activities like work, exercise, and travel easier. Talk to your doctor.\nWork with yourteam of health professionals.\nIt can be rewarding to help a loved one with heart failure. But it's also a lot of work. And it can be hard emotionally.\nIf you are taking care of a loved one, make sure that you also take care of yourself. This can mean taking breaks by getting help from family or friends. You also may be able to use respite care. These services provide someone who will stay with your loved one while you get out of the house for a few hours.\nCaring for Someone Who Has Heart Failure\nHeart failure brings big changes to your life. You may struggle with sadness and worry. You may wonder if you'll still be able to enjoy your life. Coping with your feelings and seeking help when you need it can help you live better with heart failure.\nHeart failure can be hard on your emotions. You may feel depressed that you can't do some of the things you used to do. You may worry about your future. And symptoms of heart failure, such as shortness of breath, can make this anxiety worse.\nThese feelings are common. Talk to your doctor if you have symptoms of depression or are worried a lot. Depression and anxiety can be treated with counseling and medicine.\nYou also can help yourself feel better by changing your \"self-talk.\" Those are the things you tell yourself about how you're coping. Negative thoughts can make you feel bad. Changing the way you think can change the way you feel.\n\"I would sit at my kitchen table and feel I was in this cloud of dread. I didn't feel like me. I felt like, 'I'm never going to be me again.' \"\u2014 Joan\nRead about how Joan got help for depression and anxiety.\nThe challenges of living with heart failure can increase your stress. And stress can make living with heart failure even harder. Stress also can disturb your sleep and make depression and anxiety worse. Explore ways to relax and manage stress to help your body, mind, and spirit.\nEmotional support from friends and family can help you cope with the struggles of heart failure. You might want to think about joining a heart failure support group. Ask your doctor about the types of support that are available where you live.\nCardiac rehab programs can offer support for you and your family. Ask your doctor if rehab is right for you.\nMeeting other people with the same problems can help you know you're not alone. If you're shy or aren't a joiner, you can look at an online support group. Even though people online aren't talking face-to-face, they're sharing their feelings and creating a community.\nYou probably will need to take several medicines to treat heart failure, even if you don't have symptoms yet.\nMedicines don't cure heart failure. But they can help your heart work better and improve symptoms.\nMedicines can:\nRelieve or control symptoms.\nTreat other health problems you have, such as coronary artery disease.\nImprove your daily quality of life.\nSlow the rate at which your heart failure gets worse.\nReduce the chance of other problems from heart failure, such as stroke.\nReduce hospital stays.\nHelp you live as long as possible.\nIt's very important to take your medicines exactly as your doctor says. If you don't, your heart failure may get worse or you may get sudden heart failure.\nThe medicines you take will depend on the type of heart failure you have. The most commonly used medicines are listed below.\nMedicines for pumping problems (heart failure with reduced ejection fraction, or systolic heart failure)\nACE inhibitors (angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors) relax and widen blood vessels. This makes it easier for blood to flow.\nAldosterone receptor antagonists, a type of diuretic, make the kidneys get rid of extra fluid.\nARBs (angiotensin II receptor blockers) make it easier for blood to flow through the vessels.\nARNI (angiotensin receptor neprilysin inhibitor) medicine makes it easier for blood to flow through the vessels. ARNI medicine may be used instead of an ACE inhibitor or an ARB.\nBeta-blockers slow the heart rate. They also may help the heart fill with blood more completely.\nDigoxin helps the heart pump more blood with each beat.\nDiuretics help relieve symptoms like swelling in the legs.\nHydralazine taken with a nitrate widens blood vessels. This medicine can lower blood pressure and reduce the workload on the heart.\nIvabradine slows the heart rate. This medicine may help prevent some people from being hospitalized for heart failure.\nMedicines for filling problems (heart failure with preserved ejection fraction, or diastolic heart failure)\nYou also may take other medicines for health problems that can cause heart failure or for problems caused by heart failure.\nAntiarrhythmics prevent very fast and sometimes irregular heart rhythms.\nBlood thinners, also known as anticoagulants, prevent dangerous blood clots.\nTalk to your doctor before you take any over-the-counter medicines. Some of them might make your symptoms worse.\nSurgeries for heart failure include:\nSurgery to get a pacemaker, implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD), or ventricular assist device (VAD). For more information, see Other Treatment.\nHeart transplant to replace a failing heart. This is not common.\nCardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) uses a biventricular pacemaker, which makes the heart's lower chambers (ventricles) pump together. This can help your heart pump blood better. This type of pacemaker can help you feel better so you can be more active. It also can help keep you out of the hospital and help you live longer.\nIf you get a pacemaker, you have to be careful not to get too close to some devices with strong magnetic or electrical fields. These include MRI machines (unless your pacemaker is safe for an MRI), battery-powered cordless power tools, and CB or ham radios. But most everyday appliances are safe.\nHeart Problems: Living With a Pacemaker\nA pacemaker may be used alone or along with an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) for heart failure.\nImplantable defibrillators (ICDs)\nImplantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) can prevent sudden death from an abnormal heart rhythm and may help you live longer. An ICD checks the heart for very fast and deadly heart rhythms. If the heart goes into one of these rhythms, the ICD shocks it to stop the deadly rhythm and returns the heart to a normal rhythm.\nHeart Problems: Living With an ICD\nAn ICD may be used alone or along with a pacemaker for heart failure.\nVentricular assist devices (VADs), also known as heart pumps, may be placed into the chest to help the heart pump more blood. VADs can keep people alive until a donor heart is available for transplant. In some cases, VADs may also be used as an alternative to heart transplant for long-term treatment. VADs are used in people who have severe heart failure.\nAn intra-aortic balloon pump is sometimes used to help the heart pump more blood during sudden heart failure.\nYou may hear about supplements, vitamins, or hormones that might improve heart failure symptoms.\nNo other supplement, vitamin, or hormone has been shown definitely to relieve heart failure or help you live longer.\nExamples include coenzyme Q10 and hawthorn.\nOnly some of the studies of coenzyme Q10 showed that it helps heart failure symptoms.footnote 3\nHawthorn is an herb that is sometimes used in Europe and Asia to try to increase blood flow to the heart.\nCoenzyme Q10 (2006).

        "raw_content": "WHEREAS, after two years of political turbulence in Brazil, which resulted in judicial rulings that barred former president Luiz In\u00e1cio Lula da Silva from running for election, Brazilian voters elected a far-right former military officer, Jair Bolsonaro, to the presidency. He joins the company of other anti-democratic authoritarians elected around the world, like Recep Tayyip Erdo\u011fan in Turkey, Viktor Orb\u00e1n in Hungary, Abdel Fattah el-Sisi in Egypt and Rodrigo Duterte in the Philippines; and\nWHEREAS, labor unions are being targeted. Recent changes to Brazilian labor law have eliminated important trade union and workers\u2019 rights, cut off sources of union financing and significantly increased precarious employment in both the public and private sectors. Unions have reported intensified persecution of union leaders and workers throughout the country; and\nWHEREAS, the AFL-CIO, the International Trade Union Confederation, Public Services International and Education International are mobilizing member organizations to protest the Bolsonaro administration\u2019s actions to roll back democracy in human rights, workers\u2019 rights, political freedoms, minority rights and environmental issues; and\nWHEREAS, Bolsonaro has abolished Brazil\u2019s Ministry of Labor, among other government agencies and ministries, and begun to fire thousands of public sector contract workers who are deemed a political threat to the administration\u2019s mission; and\nWHEREAS, President Bolsonaro has promised further public sector firings, proposed the abolition of Brazil\u2019s labor courts, and promoted economic advisers seeking to cut pension spending, privatize state-run enterprises and public services, and grant tax cuts to the rich; and\nWHEREAS, Brazil\u2019s education system is likely to be one of Bolsonaro\u2019s targets. He has threatened to scrap the decades-old tradition of school independence by imposing right-wing directors at federal universities. Bolsonaro\u2019s education minister has said he wants to eliminate sex education, require that creationism be taught alongside evolution, revise school materials to include a more \u201cbalanced\u201d view of the country\u2019s military dictatorship, and encourage teachers and students to report \u201cleftism\u201d in the classroom. A bill, already moving its way through Congress, will bar teachers and university professors from expressing their political views in the classroom, ban the use of the terms \u201cgender\u201d and \u201csexual orientation,\u201d and force the teaching of \u201cmoral and religious education\u201d if parents request it; and\nWHEREAS, Bolsonaro has transformed the Ministry of Human Rights into the Ministry of Women, Family and Human Rights and appointed a conservative pastor as its head, prompting outcry from feminist, indigenous and LGBT activists. Bolsonaro has ordered that the Ministry of Agriculture now has the authority to delineate indigenous territory, which threatens Brazil\u2019s indigenous peoples and quilombolas, communities descended from runaway slaves, boosting agribusiness and threatening the Amazon with further deforestation and environmental degradation.

During the morning, researchers will interact with health care staff and, in the afternoon, the topics to discuss with the social work staff will be directed at social innovation and human-centred design.\nThe workshops will be highly interactive, with a presentation of Fraunhofer\u2019s mission, with specific talks about prevention and early detection of health risks, new technologies, participatory design and social innovation, and also presentations of mobile-based solutions for chronic disease management. Workshop participants will also have the chance to see demonstrations of the applications and to try them out.\nSanta Casa da Miseric\u00f3rdia de Lisboa (SCML) is a large organization which acts towards a humanitarian goal. Its social intervention includes health services and medical care, education and culture, as well as the promotion of quality of life, particularly for those most in need of protection. Fraunhofer AICOS, in turn, develops solutions for older adults and people with little access to technology, namely in the fields of assisted living and health care.\nTherefore, both entities have agreed to put together these workshops to introduce new technologies to SCML professionals and to learn from these professionals about the challenges in the field. The workshop will be a perfect opportunity to exchange experiences, learn about each stakeholder\u2019s point of view and envisage solutions for real problems based on new and affordable technologies developed in partnership with older people and caregivers. Together, we are designing \u201cRemarkable technology, easy to use\u201d.\nThe workshop will be held at \u201cP\u00f3lo de Inova\u00e7\u00e3o Social Mitra\u201d, in Marvila, Lisbon.\nOnline in Internet; URL: https://www.aicos.fraunhofer.pt/en/news_and_events_aicos/news_archive/older_archive/fraunhofer_s-workshops-at-santa-casa-da-misericordia-de-lisboa.html",

        "title": "\ufeff AllAboutFeed - Soufflet: A new player on the performance feed market",
        "raw_content": "Soufflet: A new player on the performance feed market\nThe French, family-owned company Soufflet is well known within the malting and flour milling business and as such has an indirect relation with the feed industry in selling its by-products as animal feed. Now Soufflet is entering the market of feed ingredients as a new player.\nBy Dick Ziggers\nHow can a company that is the first malt producer and the first miller in Europe be generally unknown to the general public? The answer is: low key. Their customers were more important than their face in the newspaper so to speak.\nThe French family-owned company Soufflet has a long tradition of collecting cereals (wheat, barley, maize), oilseeds (rape seed, sunflower) and protein (peas), storing, sorting, grading, processing, packaging and marketing of the products for its French growers. In its 170 silos located in the heart of the French production regions in the 2005/06 campaign some 3.2 millions tonnes were stored and distributed.\nBesides this, Soufflet also supplies its crop growers with seeds, fertiliser and crop protection products. Soufflet has one century of experience in the grains area, but always put its customers on the forefront and stayed modest. In its century of grain trading and processing turnover grew to \u20ac 2.7 billion in 2006/07 of which \u20ac 1.4 billion came from exports (51%).\nSoufflet employs almost 4,000 people of which two-thirds are in France. Corporate headquarters are in Nogent-sur-Seine, 120 km east of Paris in the Champagne area. It is the largest malt producer in the world and the largest European miller. Two main buildings determine the sky-line of Nogent-sur-Seine: the nuclear power plant and the Soufflet flour mill with its grain storage silos alongside the river Seine.\nA third impressive building is the old Soufflet mill located on the Seine that used hydro-power to run its machines.\nMalting core business\nOne of the main activities of Soufflet is malting; converting barley into malt. Malting is the industrial replication of a natural process \u2013 germination \u2013 of a grain. During malting the grain will produce metabolites that are necessary for its development. Malt is classically used as a raw material for beer. Soufflet during the years has gained extensive experience in resolving brewers\u2019 issues, such as sanitary security (mycotoxins), quality of the raw materials (soluble beta-glucans) and functionalities of the raw materials (mash filtration). Malting at Soufflet has become a controlled process of \u2018guided fermentation\u2019 with non-GM micro-organisms (genus Geotrichum, a type of fungus), creating functionalised malt.\nThis expertise led to further development of a technology similar to malting: solid state fermentation (SSF). This technology, also referred to as \u2018koji\u2019 (Aspergillus in Latin), is a traditional Asian method for producing food. Soy sauce for example is made through the koji process. It is based on natural fermentation with the use of a micro-organism (yeast) on a substrate (wheat). The yeast transforms the substrate from the inside. SSF is a controlled fermentation with the addition of a specific micro-organism. It allows wheat to endogenously produce metabolites necessary for digestion by micro-organisms or by animals. Wheat and wheat malt are good substrates, because they contain sugars, proteins and plant cell walls. The process is very similar to malt production; guiding fermentation to produce metabolites that have specific functionalities, in feed for example, xylanases and glucanases. \u201cOn the one hand koji is a traditional method, and on the other hand a very promising research area,\u201d says Mathieu Tournat, new business development manager at Soufflet.\nOsiris R&D project\nTo be able to further develop SSF and to tap on French subsidies Soufflet initiated the Osiris R&D programme in cooperation with two other partners: the company Maguin and the chemical biology laboratory of the Institute of Supramolecular Science and Engineering, part of the Louis Pasteur University in Strasbourg. The French State agreement for financial support from December 2006 was approved by the European Commission in October 2007.\nEU Competition Commissioner Neelie Kroes said \u201cOsiris will help to develop new products for the benefit of consumers and this will have a positive effect on the whole of the EU.\u201d\nThe Osiris R&D programme is worth a total of \u20ac77 million over a period of eight years, of which \u20ac31 million is granted by the French government. It aims to produce tools for the rapid selection of micro-organisms, develop industrial solid-state fermentation processes and create specific biotechnology products to improve the yield of biofuel production from wheat and maize in particular. These biotechnology products should also boost the performance of cereals and oilseeds and protein crops used for animal feed and increase the yield of co-products of biofuel production. They will also generate health benefits for consumers of non-alcoholic beer and malted beverages. Finally, they will protect cereal crops from the disease fusariosis. The Osiris programme started on January 1, 2008.\nAround 60 researchers are involved to develop a coherent strategy in adding value to grains,\u201d says Tournat, \u201cwhich fits perfectly in the Soufflet Group\u2019s tradition. It is a new challenge for our company. We are involved in this project to exploit the potential of solid state fermentation technology for adding value to grains using biotechnology,\u201d Tournat explains. \u201cOur aim is to develop a range of functional raw materials for the animal feed market that are adapted to the feed market\u2019s needs. We aim at the global feed market; the start was in France and we are also now looking for interested parties in Europe.\u201d\nFunctional raw material\nThe R&D work focuses on several issues, such as substrate, micro-organisms, and the fermentation process with the aim to develop a new biocatalyst for animal feed. Avimalt is the first, and a pilot project within the innovative product range of Soufflet. It is defined as a functional raw material. \u201cAvimalt was the first product using our R&D approach and it is a cooperative development between our malting unit and our subsidiary Lyven, which has a long experience in solid state fermentation,\u201d Tournat says.\n\u201cWe wanted to develop an ingredient that has a constant composition, takes part in enhancing performance, adds value to local agricultural sources, contributes to the reduction of animal rejections and is innovative,\u201d says Tournat summarising the research goals. The functional raw material is made from malted and naturally fermented non-GM wheat. It was developed to add wheat specific metabolites and nutrients essential for animal growth to the feed and thus improves zootechnical performance. Avimalt can be used in every livestock species and is industrially produced in Soufflet\u2019s malting plant in Arcis-sur-Aube.\nThe koji process is a derivative of the malting process. Wheat is soaked and then inoculated with a micro-organism (fungus) after which the germination stage and the guided fermentation takes place. This is followed by the kilning stage where the substrate is heated and dried and eventually grinded and conditioned. During these processes a cellular multiplication in the grain takes place. Several natural products are produced, such as cellulases and hemicellulases for digesting plant cells, proteases for hydrolysing proteins into peptides and amino acids, amylases for converting starch into single sugars and NSP-ases for hydrolysing the complex non-starch polysaccharides.\nFurthermore the fermentation product has a booster nutritional effect because of its excess of vitamins and trace elements, such as Vitamin B9 (180-200 \u00b5g/100g), Vitamin D3 (2.0-2.5 \u00b5g/100g), Vitamin E (0.25-0.35 mg/100g), Iron (35-40 mg/kg), fungus biomass (peptides, amino-acids) Avimalt\u2019s composition contributes to improving the animal\u2019s access to the nutrients in the feed and hydrolysis into simple sugars. This also reduces the viscosity of the feed in the gut.\nSoufflet carried out several experiments to obtain data on the performance of the product. From a trial carried out at the University of Leuven in Belgium, it was found that in broiler chicken Avimalt has a significant dose-response effect on weight gain.\nIt gave 5-8% improvement of feed conversion ratio and 5-7% improvement of average daily gain (Table 1). Diets were wheat based, which is very common in Europe, but also is an optimal situation for the use of Avimalt. \u201cIn France we tested and sell the product mainly in the \u2018label\u2019 segment of the market\u201d, adds Tournat. \u201cThis is a premium market with a different economical structure than the \u2018general\u2019 broiler industry. We first wanted to open up the more high-end of the market.\u201d Avimalt is used in mash feed as well as in pelleted feed in the label-segment. Avimalt is a powder and can be added to the feed before or after pelleting. Because of the sugars from the malting process the product has a sweet taste and a good palatability. At a French cooperative feed miller, a trial with turkeys was carried out resulting in a 2% improvement of FCR and 1% improvement of daily gain (Table 2).\nBesides that, important improvements during the cramming and finishing stages could be observed. The French research institute INRA tested Avimalt in rabbits and found no significant effect on ADG, neither on mortality. There was a feed intake decrease (p=0.08) and a dose effect on FCR was observed. Currently tests are running in ruminants and pigs and aquaculture is also aimed at.\nSoufflet is a new player that enters the performance feeds market. Further developments and research will tell if they will become successful. With their first product Avimalt, they have created a functional raw material which is useable in most livestock species, and which is optimised for use in wheat-based diets. It is made using traditional technologies with natural methods applied to a natural raw material coming from a food process applied to the feed industry. Soufflet will take part in Eurotier 2008, in the World Poultry Show section.\nIn marketing there are generally four strategies that most companies follow to sell their products and services: market penetration (existing products in existing market), product development (new products in existing markets), market development (existing products in new markets) and diversification (new products in new markets). The latter is a form of growth marketing strategy for a company. Ansoff, who defined afore mentioned strategies pointed out that a diversification strategy stands apart from the other three strategies because it requires a company to acquire new skills, new techniques and new facilities. Therefore, diversification is meant to be the riskiest of the four strategies to pursue for a firm.",

        "raw_content": "Home / Bail Bond Laws / CA Medical Marijuana Laws\nCA Medical Marijuana Laws\nIn the state of California, any one who has been instructed to use marijuana by licensed medical doctor may legally use cannabis and its extracts. A medical marijuana card is not required by law, but is recommended in order to prove a person is legally able to use, transport and possess marijuana within the state.\nA person is only allowed to posses a reasonable amount of marijuana. The current definition of what a reasonable amount of marijuana constitutes can be based on the person\u2019s physical health and the recommendation of the prescribing physician. Anyone charged with marijuana possession should immediately contact a bail bondsman for assistance, particularly when the marijuana is prescribed by a physician. Because a medical marijuana card is not legally required, and a doctor may verbally prescribe marijuana to a patient, those with a prescription for medical marijuana may hire a lawyer to dispute any legal consequences of marijuana possession. If possible, all people with a prescription should obtain written proof of the prescription, and should have the written prescription on-hand whenever transporting, purchasing or using marijuana.\nTips for Patients and Caregivers\nIn addition to having a valid prescription, the following laws apply to medical marijuana users:\nThe user may not give away or sell marijuana.\nIt is illegal to use marijuana near schools, buses or in a vehicle while the vehicle is in use. Marijuana cannot be used while operating a boat.\nThose with a prescription may posses up to eight ounces of marijuana, or up to 12 marijuana plants. The amount of marijuana in the possession of the person can also vary based on the doctor\u2019s recommendations.\nAll marijuana extracts and condensed marijuana, such as hashish, must be produced in a manner that is allowed by law. For instance, chemical solvents cannot be used to produce marijuana products at home.\nIt is the patient\u2019s responsibility to maintain a valid medical marijuana card.\nFederal Laws and Laws for Caregivers Caregivers may possess and transport prescribed marijuana for another person in their care. A caregiver\u2019s card is available to ensure caregivers aren\u2019t subjected to prosecution for the illegal possession of marijuana. The caregiver\u2019s card is typically provided by the prescribing doctor. Caregivers cannot use the marijuana intended for the patient, and should always carry their card whenever purchasing or transporting marijuana. Federal laws state that possessing, growing or transporting marijuana is illegal. In the state of California, it is recommended that all people who use medical marijuana abstain from taking the medicine onto federal grounds, such as federal courthouses. Residents of California should also avoid taking even small amounts of marijuana into neighboring states, as the penalties for transporting marijuana out of the state are harsher than simple possession of marijuana.\nTags: CA Law, Medical Marijuana\nPosted in Bail Bond Laws Comments Off on CA Medical Marijuana Laws",

        "raw_content": "Woodside picks Kevin Bryant as next town manager\nKevin Bryant, assistant to Susan George, will succeed her in January\nWoodside's new town manager Kevin Bryant. ==I Almanac photo by Michelle Le.==\nKevin A. Bryant, currently the assistant town manager for the town of Woodside, beat out 94 other candidates and will take over as town manager on Jan. 14, according to a town announcement obtained by the Almanac.\nHe was chosen by a unanimous vote of the seven-member Town Council at a special meeting Thursday night, Nov. 3.\nSusan George, the town manager since 1993, announced in January 2011 that she would be stepping down in January 2012. Recruiter Bobbi C. Peckham of Sacramento has been working since March to find a replacement.\n\"My colleagues on the council and I have devoted significant energy and time over the course of the last few months to ensure that we selected the best candidate to serve as the next town manager,\" Mayor Ron Romines said in the statement.\n\"Kevin's understanding about what it takes to manage the town, his enthusiasm about tackling the challenges that face the town, his proven capabilities, and his many already established working relationships distinguished him from his competitors,\" Mr. Romines continued. \"We look forward to many successful and productive years of working with Kevin as he moves into the top spot.\"\nHow had Mr. Bryant made his interest known? \"Anyone who asked me, I told them that I would be a candidate for the position,\" he said in a telephone interview. \"The recruiter didn't need to reach out to me. I was ready to throw my hat into the ring from the beginning.\"\nMr. Bryant said he had one interview with the recruiter, one with the senior management team in Town Hall, and two with the full Town Council.\nHis base salary will be $195,000 a year. Click here to view the council's resolution (PDF document).\nMr. Bryant will receive the same retirement, personal leave, holiday and health insurance benefits as all town employees plus $300 per month mileage reimbursement and 100 hours of administrative leave per year.\nAdministrative leave compensates the seven senior-level exempt employees in Town Hall who are not paid for overtime.\nMr. Bryant will not be hiring a replacement as assistant town manager, he said, but he plans to hire someone with similar skills.\nMs. Peckham, the recruiter, had said her search for town manager candidates would start on the Peninsula followed by the East Bay, Marin County and Santa Clara County. \"There is a certain culture in the Bay Area that I'm not going to find in Southern California,\" she said. \"I think what's really critical is to start right here in this county.\"\nShe did not have to go far. Mr. Bryant lives in San Carlos with his wife and two daughters, one in elementary school and one in preschool.\nHe came to Woodside in February 2008 from Sausalito, where he was the assistant to the city manager, he said in a bio he provided. His experience previous to that was as an \"advance planner\" for the town of Tiburon and as a planning associate for the city of Alameda.\nMr. Bryant grew up in Warren, Maine, graduated from Medomak Valley High School in Waldoboro, Maine, and has a bachelor's degree in political science (1993) from the University of Southern Maine and a master's degree in regional planning (1998) from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, he said.\nIn his spare time, he said, he enjoys spending time with his daughters and reading from the \"backlog of good books I have stacked on my bookshelf.\"\nChange? No change?\nFew would argue that Ms. George's will be a hard act to follow.\nIn March, Ms. Peckham, the recruiter, asked a small group of residents to name a few problems that might not have been addressed over the 18 years of Ms. George's administration. The response was 15 or 20 seconds of silence until one resident said, \"Nobody's perfect.\"\nDoes Mr. Bryant have changes in mind? \"I do, but part of the reason that this job was very attractive is that Woodside was being well managed and is being well managed,\" he said.\nChanges will be incremental and will probably be aimed at improving ways to provide residents with information and ease the process of applying for permits, he said.\nIf he were appointed by WOODSIDERS, he MUST be PERFECT for the job.\nWhat stays in Woodside is Everything.\nconsidering you don't live in Woodside, I'd say you have very little knowledge of the situation and therefore your opinion has little to no value.\nAs an aside, did you forget to film the entry of your verification code?",

        "raw_content": "Regular Sauna Bathing Decreases Risks of Heart-Related Problems\nMarch 2, 2015 Trishti Sabane Health, Social Science 3 Minutes Read\nA new study, led by Dr Jari A. Laukkanen, has greatly enhanced the appeal of sauna bathing. According to its findings which were published in the journal JAMA Internal Medicine, the relaxing experience could help decrease the risk of developing cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality. You might want to indulge into this method of detoxifying the body more often now.\nPrevious studies have suggested that sauna bathing has positive effects on blood circulation, enhancing the health of the heart. But, Dr Laukkanen claims that very few of these research works focus on the link between the long-term use of sauna and the risk of sudden cardiac arrest, fatal coronary heart disease (CHD), fatal cardiovascular disease (CVD) and all-cause mortality. He thus set out with his colleagues to determine the association, if any.\n2 315 men from the Finnish Kuopio Ischemic Heart Disease Risk Factor Study were assessed for the possible link. The age group chosen included men from 42 years old to 60 years old. The participants filled in a questionnaire to gather data concerning the frequency they used a sauna per week, the duration of each session, and the average temperature that was set.\nIt was found that, compared to men who used a sauna only once a week, those having 2 to 3 sessions per week were 22 % less likely to have sudden cardiac death, had a 23% lower risk of experiencing fatal CHD, and were 27 % less likely to die of CVD, and had a 24% lower risk of all-cause mortality\nThe men who had 4 to 7 sauna baths per week had even lower risks of developing the diseases (as opposed to those who had it just once a week):-\n63 % less risk of sudden cardiac death\n48% lower risk of CHD death\n50% lower risk of CVD death\n40% less likely to die from all causes\nFurthermore, the duration of the sessions also seemed to have considerable effects.\nCompared with men who spent less than 11 minutes in a sauna, those who had around 11 to 19 minutes in one were 7 % less likely to experience sudden cardiac death\nMen having sauna sessions lasting for more than 19 minutes had a 52 % lower risk.\nThe authors said in a statement:\n\u201cThis study provides prospective evidence that sauna bathing is a protective factor against the risk of sudden cardiac death, fatal CHD, fatal CVD and all-cause mortality events in the general male population.\nOur results suggest that sauna bathing is a recommendable health habit, although further studies are needed to confirm our results in different population settings.\u201d\nThe study has its limitations though. Data about women was not gleaned. Further research would ideally focus on this. The authors added that the results should be replicated for populations not used to having sauna baths.\nAlso, the research did not delve into the reason behind the apparent benefits of sauna baths. Sauna bathing might be beneficial because they have the potential of increasing the heart rate in a manner comparable to low and moderate exercise, which are good for the health of the heart.",

        "title": "Top 10: Best Android Smartphones Buyer's Guide - August 2016 | Android Headlines",
        "raw_content": "Top 10: Best Android Smartphones Buyer's Guide - August 2016\nBy Tom Dawson August 11, 2016, 10:00am\nIt's been an interesting year in the world of smartphones, and as we enter the Fall, slowly leaving Summer behind, things are about to get a lot more interesting. Already, we've seen Samsung launch the new Galaxy Note 7, and there's a new LG V20 on the horizon as well. With new devices from HTC also possible, and a pair of new Nexus devices almost guaranteed, this list is going to see some shake-ups, and it has done this month, as the presence of Samsung's larger-than-life Galaxy Note series is felt once again.\n10. Sony Xperia X Performance\nIt's been some time since we saw a decent device from Sony, and with IFA 2016 just around the corner, we might be closer to seeing another one than we think. The Xperia X line was originally not going to be anything too spectacular, but the X Performance model makes up for this. With the Snapdragon 820 and a 23-megapixel Sony camera, the Xperia X Performance is a 5.0-inch powerhouse. And while we found some issues with it in our review, it's a great device for those looking for something a little more compact without have to sacrifice on either features or performance. A great device that does a little of everything, the Xperia X Performance might be something of an unsung hero for Sony.\nWhile there might be a new LG V20 on the approach, the LG V10 is an interesting device, and thanks to the new V20 coming soon, should be available at some good discounts. It has the same great camera from last year's LG G4 and it also has a pretty cool second display that might be enough of a differentiator alone for some users. Sure, it's not the speediest device out there, and the 5.7-inch Quad HD display might be a little large for some, but the V10 is - and perhaps all will be - a little different than most devices out there.\n08. Google Nexus 5X\nThe LG G4 and LG V10 weren't all that the South Korean firm got up to last year, as they also partnered with Google for the affordable Nexus 5X. Which has, since it first launched, steadily fallen in price to some pretty attractive sale figures. With a Snapdragon 808 and 2GB of RAM, this is not a super-speedy device, but it will be updated to Android 7.0 Nougat when that launches. On top of that, it has one of the better Android cameras on the market - sharing the same camera setup as the Nexus 6P - and its 5.2-inch form factor is fairly easy to use as well. It's well-priced, attractive to users, and while it might not be the best out there, it's a solid performer that just didn't try hard enough to keep up with the crowd when it launched.\nThe HTC 10 is something that a lot of users will be disappointed with. And that's not because it's a bad phone, in fact our review practically says the opposite, but because HTC can do so much better. Gone here is the same BoomSound we've come to know and love, and while the design of the device is absolutely gorgeous, it blends it rather than standing out a la Samsung and co. With some of the better software laid on top of Android, and a 5.2-inch Quad HD display with a Snapdragon 820 and 4GB of RAM, this has all of the specs, and if you want a great device that's great to live with, the HTC 10 won't disappoint. It's fairly pricey for what it is as well, which makes it a good job that we're giving one way, right?\n06. Moto Z Force Droid Edition\nThe Moto Z Force Droid Edition is, not only a mouthful, but a device that puts Motorola back on the map in terms of smartphones. It's been some time since we saw such a device, and it's arguably one of the more modular devices to hit the market thanks to the new Moto Mods situation. While people wait for the unlocked version to hit stores, this one on Verizon is the best bet right now for those that just can't wait to get their hands on the future of the Moto line. We reviewed this not too long ago, and with an excellent 5.5-inch Quad HD display, a great 21-megapixel camera and the unbreakable ShatterShield display technology this is one device that might well be worth the high asking price.\nWhen the OnePlus 3 was released earlier on this year, it was a surprise to a lot of people, not least due to the change in overall design. Despite this however, at just $399, with a 5.5-inch display, a Snapdragon 820 and 6GB (!) of RAM, the OnePlus 3 is an absolute steal. Its display, at 1080p might not be the best out there, but it is an AMOLED panel and the fit and finish of this year's device is even better than before. It looks much more professional than previous models and launched as an invite-free model to boot, making it even easier to love the OnePlus 3.\nFor whatever reason, the LG G5 has failed to do what LG wanted it to, and that was to take the fight to Samsung's Galaxy S series. Instead, what we ended up with is a device that had some magic tricks up its sleeve, but also didn't quite capitalize on its modular design. Sure, there are some good attachments available, but they've taken too long to reach the market and many of them are simply too expensive for most users. With a 5.3-inch display and a Snapdragon 820, backed up with 4GB of RAM, the LG G5 has it where specs count and thanks to the innovative dual camera setup, the G5 does do things differently for the better, but it does leave a little to be desired in the long run.\n03. Google Nexus 6P\nThe Nexus 6P might soon be superceded by a device that may or may not be coming from HTC, but it's actually about to get a lot better. With Android 7.0 Nougat just around the corner, the Nexus 6P is guaranteed to be first in line. With the new features, such as Daydream and new apps like Allo and Duo launching soon, the Nexus 6P is about to be the best phone for Android fans. It is also a great piece of hardware as well, thanks to a 5.7-inch Quad HD display, a Snapdragon 810 and 3GB of RAM, which might not sound like much but thanks to light software and an excellent camera, the Nexus 6P is one of the best phones out there. If not a little pedestrian in the long run.\n02. Samsung Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 Edge\nThese two devices might be different sizes, but they're cut from the same cloth and save for a larger display and curved edges, are effectively the same device. Which, depending on where you live features either a Snapdragon 820 or an Exynos 8890 and 4GB of RAM. On top of this, they also feature some of the best cameras to hit the market and they also look great, too. The Quad HD Super AMOLED display looks great, and the overall fit and finish of the hardware looks gorgeous, too.

        "title": "Medicare for Mesothelioma Patients | How It Works & Coverage Types",
        "raw_content": "Medicare for Mesothelioma Treatment\nMedicare is a federal health insurance program maintained by the U.S. government. More than 40 million Americans are enrolled in it. Medicare benefits may cover a portion of the treatment costs for malignant mesothelioma cancer.\nMedicare is a public health insurance program administered by the Centers for Medicaid and Medicare Services. It began in 1966 under the Social Security Administration.\nAll Americans over the age of 65 are generally eligible to receive Medicare coverage. Because the vast majority of people diagnosed with mesothelioma are age 65 and older, most are receiving Medicare medical benefits.\nSome mesothelioma patients rely on Medicare alone for health care coverage, while others have Medicare in addition to private insurance plans.\nTypes of Medicare and Coverage\nThere are four main components to Medicare coverage that impact what will be included or excluded from each person\u2019s coverage.\nMedicare Part A and Part B, also known as Original Medicare, covers hospital insurance and medical insurance, respectively.\nSome people are automatically enrolled in Medicare Part A when they begin receiving Social Security benefits. Others have to sign up for it, which you can do online through the Social Security Administration website. Medicare Part B is optional coverage that is purchased from the federal government.\nOther optional plans include Part C, which goes through private insurers who work with Medicare, and Part D, which includes prescription drug coverage.\nWhat Do the Different Parts of Medicare Cover?\nMedicare Part A: Inpatient hospital stays, nursing home care, hospice care and some home health care. You will not pay a premium for Medicare Part A if you or your spouse has paid Medicare taxes for at least 10 years.\nMedicare Part B: Certain doctors\u2019 services, outpatient care, medical supplies and preventative services. This plan requires a premium, which is usually paid monthly and deducted from your Social Security benefit check.\nMedicare Part C: Also known as Medicare Advantage Plans, this is offered by private insurance companies that contract with Medicare. Part C provides Part A and Part B benefits along with emergency and urgent care, vision services, hearing services, dental services and Medicare Part D prescription drug coverage.\nMedicare Part D: This plan provides prescription drug coverage to Original Medicare, some Medicare Cost Plans, some Medicare Private-Fee-for-Service Plans and Medicare Medical Savings Account Plans.\nHave Questions About Medicare Coverage?\nSpeak with a trusted Patient Advocate about Medicare and other financial assistance for mesothelioma.\nWhat Does Medicare Cover for Mesothelioma?\nIf you are enrolled in Original Medicare (Part A and Part B), certain aspects of mesothelioma treatment may be covered.\nAllowable charges may include:\nNursing home care or hospice care\nGenerally, Part A Medicare covers inpatient hospital care for mesothelioma patients, while Part B covers most of the treatment you may receive on an outpatient basis.\nPart A Coverage for Mesothelioma\nHospice care services, including palliative care\nPart B Coverage for Mesothelioma\nOffice visits to a primary care physician or a specialist\nMost IV medications such as chemotherapy\nLaboratory costs, including blood work and X-rays\nMedical equipment such as wheelchairs and walkers\nMedicare Advantage Plans (Part C) cover everything in Part A and B with access to services not available through Original Medicare. Part C coverage that may benefit mesothelioma patients include emergency and urgent care, health and wellness programs and Medicare Part D prescription drug coverage.\nDoes Medicare Cover Immunotherapy Treatments?\nBecause most immunotherapy treatments for mesothelioma are only available through clinical trials, the cost of drugs such as pembrolizumab (Keytruda) and nivolumab (Opdivo) are usually covered by the clinical trial.\nPharmaceutical companies may also cover the costs of the drugs under compassionate-use programs such as the Merck Access Program.\nDoes Medicare Cover All the Costs of Treatment?\nMedicare has contracts with hospitals on how much they are willing to pay out for certain services. This is why some hospitals and doctors do not accept Medicare patients \u2014 because they are not able to charge the full amount they typically would.\nFor example, a person with private insurance may be charged full price for a procedure whereas Medicare may only allow the hospital to charge 80 percent.\nMedicare also typically requires a 20 percent copay from the patient. A patient navigator or social worker at the cancer treatment center can answer specific questions about Medicare, private insurance coverage and out-of-pocket expenses.\nMany people with Medicare also have health insurance coverage from a private company. In this case, a \u201ccoordination of benefits\u201d will figure out which plan is responsible for paying claims first.\nThe primary insurer, or \u201cprimary payer,\u201d will pay up to the limits of its coverage and send the rest to the \u201csecondary payer.\u201d The secondary payer \u2014 which can be Medicare \u2014 may not pay all the uncovered costs.\nIf your private insurance is the secondary payer, you may need to enroll in Medicare Part B before it will pay the remaining balance. In some cases, Medicare may cover costs that another insurer may be responsible for. This is called a conditional payment.\nConditional payments must be repaid to Medicare if you get a settlement or jury award in a mesothelioma lawsuit or if you receive an award or other payment later.\nDoes Medicare Take Liens on Mesothelioma Settlements?\nThe Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services can assert the recovery of Medicare payments against settlements, judgments, payments or awards involving environmental hazards \u2014 including asbestos exposure. This is known as a lien.\nAwards from an asbestos bankruptcy trust claims and mesothelioma lawsuits may be subject to a lien.\nA qualified mesothelioma lawyer can help you understand what may be subject to a Medicare lien and negotiate the amount of a lien repayment.\nSocial Security Administration.

        "raw_content": "Table of Contents | Director's Message | Executive Summary | CGD Achievements\nClimate Change Research Section Narrative\nThe Climate Change Research Section (CCR) is part of the Climate and Global Dynamics (CGD) Division at the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) in Boulder, Colorado.\nThe CCR section makes extensive use of state-of-the-art coupled climate system models to study the sensitivity and stability of the Earth system to a variety of forcings, including changes of greenhouse gases, aerosols, solar irradiance, volcanic forcing, land characteristics, and land use change. This section is a focal point for NCAR and university paleoclimate research and serves as a resource to the paleoclimatic and climate change research community in the use of the Community Climate System Model (CCSM). CCR scientists collaborate closely with major U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) laboratories in developing and using high-performance coupled climate models to address national climate research and policy questions.\nPaleoclimate:\nSimulating the Climate of the Late Permian\nJeffrey Kiehl (CCR) and Christine Shields (CCR) have been researching one of the more intriguing time periods in Earth\u0092s history, the boundary between the Late Permian and Triassic periods at 251 Ma (1). This boundary marks the largest extinction recorded in Earth\u0092s history, where across this boundary approximately 90% of marine and terrestrial species were lost. Associated with this event was an extended period of magma activity and extended ocean anoxia. What caused such a catastrophic change in life? A number of hypotheses have been proposed to explain various aspects of the extinction and climate of this time period. No one hypothesis can explain all of the paleo information for this period. Although a number of climate model simulations have been carried out for this period, no fully coupled climate model simulation has existed for this time period. Fully coupled climate models are required to accurately simulate the ocean circulation, since using specified ocean boundary conditions highly constrains the climate solution and does not allow for a coupling of atmospheric and land hydrological processes to the ocean, e.g., input of fresh water to the ocean.\nKiehl and Shields are carrying out the first fully coupled climate simulation for this time period. They are using paleogeography conditions and specified CO2 levels for this time period in the recently released CCSM3. The coupled simulation is currently out ~1800 years, where the length of the integration is determined by the long time scales of the deep ocean circulation.\nThe above figure shows the annual mean surface temperature (\u00b0C) from years 1700-1709. The western tropical Panthalassic ocean has a warm pool of water with sea surface temperatures (SSTs) reaching 33 \u00b0C, compared to the present day western Pacific warm pool temperatures of 30 \u00b0C. The warmest regions over land occur in the subtropical desert regions.\nOne metric of the climate of this time period comes from the geographic location of evaporite deposits (2). These occur in shallow water regions where the evaporation minus precipitation (E-P) is positive. The above figure shows the annual mean E-P from the CCSM3 simulation, with the location of evaporite deposits marked by red triangles. All but one of these observed evaporite sites matches the model simulation of the region of positive E-P.\nAn important observation of this time period is the indication that the oceans were anoxic for an extended period (~20 My) (3) of time across the boundary. Low oxygen conditions could explain the limited marine life at this time. One hypothesis suggests that, in a warm greenhouse climate with an associated low pole to equator thermal gradient, ocean mixing to depth would be limited due to strong stratification. Shown below is the meridional overturning circulation for the Late Permian and Present day simulations from the CCSM3. Whereas in the present day world there is strong downward circulation at the poles, this does not exist in the late Permian. The late Permian deep ocean circulation is composed of two weak cells in each hemisphere. The implication of this is that the mixing of tracers such as oxygen to depth is limited for the warm world of the Late Permian. This simulation supports the idea of deep ocean anoxic conditions for this time period.\nThe present simulation indicates that the strength of the overturning circulation at depth (~3000 m) continues to slow down, indicating an even more sluggish deep ocean circulation than shown in the above figure. This result indicates the need for substantial computational resources to explore the realm of deep time, where deep ocean time scales play a critical role in biogeochemical processes relevant to life on Earth.\nFuture efforts in exploring the climate of the late Permian include: exploring the role of atmospheric chemical changes at this time including enhanced methane levels, fully coupled dynamic vegetation simulations, and coupling of biogeochemical processes. As shown fully coupled climate models can now be applied to questions of climates in deep time. These types of models can be used to integrate observations and test scientific hypotheses. They can also serve as a catalyst for more synergistic collaborations on key climate issues.\nOther Deep-time Applications\nMatt Huber and Ryan Sriver (Purdue University), collaborating with Bette Otto-Bliesner (CCR), Esther Brady (CCR), Shields, and Zav Kothavala (CCR), are demonstrating the feasibility of CCSM3 for \u0093deep past\u0094 paleoclimates and theoretical climate dynamics. Benchmark idealized configurations, including a \u0093sector world\u0094 and \u0093two islands\u0094 are being tested. Techniques for accelerating the model spinup are needed due to uncertainties in the ocean state and the long equilibration time of the deep ocean and are being developed and validated as part of this collaboration.\nThis figure shows idealized (top) and actual (bottom) \"deep-time\" continental distributions for a \"sector world\" (left) and \"two islands\" (right). It has been conjectured that the climate dynamics of these time intervals was largely a function of the continental geometries.\nHuber, Rodrigo Caballero (University of Chicago), Otto-Bliesner, and Brady are analyzing CSM1.4 simulations for Present, Last Glacial Maximum, Eocene, and Cretaceous in terms of tropical and high-latitude modes of variability. These periods vary in terms of their paleogeography, topography, continental ice sheets, and atmospheric trace gas concentrations. In contrast to conventional wisdom, El Ni\u00f1o Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is a robust feature when a Pacific-like Ocean is present and gains preeminence in warm climates (Eocene and Cretaceous) when the equator-to-pole temperature gradient is reduced. There are records of ENSO going back to the Eocene.\nClimate of the last 150,000 Years\nThis figure shows the extent and thickness of the Greenland Ice Sheet after 5000 years when forced with CCSM predicted surface temperatures and precipitation for the Last Interglacial (LIG). Inset shows the time evolution of Greenland ice volume for present-day (blue line), the LIG (black line), and a future scenario of 4xCO2 (red line) when forced with CCSM predictions.\nOtto-Bliesner and Bob Tomas (CCR) are studying the mechanisms underlying decreased aridity in northern Africa in the Holocene. CCSM2 simulations for 8500 yr BP show that Milankovitch orbital variations in solar radiation for this past period enhance the North African monsoon with a more northern position of the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ), a stronger Tropical Easterly Jet, a displacement north of the African Easterly Jet, and stronger low-level westerlies at low latitudes. These dynamical changes over North Africa are analogous to conditions observed at present during wet years in the Sahel and sub-Saharan region.\nThis figure shows the time-average June-July-August zonal wind (m/s) over North Africa predicted by CCSM for present (left) and 8500 years before present (right). The CCSM simulates important features of present summer circulations, including equatorial westerlies near the surface and two easterly jets, the African Easterly Jet at 600-700 mb and the Tropical Easterly Jet at 150 mb.\nAs part of Paleoclimate Modeling Intercomparison Project Two (PMIP-2), CCSM3 at T42x1 resolution has been integrated for Preindustrial, Mid-Holocene, and Last Glacial Maximum forcings. Otto-Bliesner, Brady, Tomas, Sam Levis (TSS), Kothavala, and Gabriel Clauzet (Universidade de Sao Paulo, Brazil) are analyzing these simulations as part of the PMIP-2 project. Results will first appear in a special issue of Journal of Climate devoted to CCSM3. The results for the Last Glacial Maximum show a global surface cooling of 4.5\u00b0C compared to Preindustrial conditions and expanded sea ice in both hemispheres, a much colder and saltier deep ocean, and a shallower and weaker North Atlantic overturning cell.\nThis figures shows the Atlantic Ocean SST for the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) as predicted by CCSM3 (red line) and estimated by the Climate Mapping, Analysis, and Prediction (CLIMAP) (dashed line), Mix et al. (pink circles), and Glacial Atlantic Ocean Mapping (GLAMAP) (blue circles) proxy reconstructions.\nThe \u0093slab ocean\u0094 version of CCSM3 provides a useful tool to assess climate sensitivity for a variety of forcings. Otto-Bliesner, Brady, and Kothavala are comparing the response of this model to past and future forcings.\nOtto-Bliesner participated with a group of researchers from 22 U.S. and international universities and laboratories to trace the spatio-temporal pattern of peak Holocene warmth (Holocene thermal maximum, HTM) across the Western Hemisphere of the Arctic. This collaboration is part of the Paleoenvironmental Arctic Sciences (PARCS) research initiative sponsored by the National Science Foundation (NSF). At the 16 terrestrial sites where quantitative estimates have been obtained, Holocene Thermal Maximum (HTM) temperatures (primarily summer estimates) were on average 1.6\u00b10.8\u00b0C warmer than present (approximate average of the 20th century). The warming, though, was time-transgressive over the western Arctic with warming in Alaska and northwest Canada coincident with precession-driven summer insolation anomaly, but delayed warming by about 4000 years in northeast Canada linked to the lingering Laurentide Ice Sheet.\nPMIP-1 compared the response of 18 Atmospheric General Circulation Models (AGCMs) to mid-Holocene (6000 years before present) solar forcing changes associated with Milankovitch orbital cycles. As a precursor to PMIP-2, seven modeling groups (NCAR, Hadley Centre, Laboratoire des Sciences du Climat et de l'Environment (LSCE),Meteorological Research Institute (MRI), Royal Netherlands Meteorological Institute (KNMI), Max-Planck, University of Wisconsin) performed AOGCM experiments for this same time period, albeit with varying specification of atmospheric trace gases. Otto-Bliesner collaborated with model intercomparisons of the AOGCMs. The expansion of the area influenced by the Afro-Asian summer monsoon during the mid-Holocene is one of the most striking features shown by paleoenvironmental data and was poorly simulated by the PMIP-1 AGCMs. Results from the Atmospheric Ocean General Circulation Models (AOGCMs) show that ocean feedbacks enhance the African monsoon and shift the belt of maximum precipitation further north. The models also show a northward shift of the northern limit of the boreal forest in response to simulated summer warming in the high-northern latitudes, and a northward expansion of temperate forests in North America in response to simulated winter warming. These northward shifts are supported by paleovegetation data.\nFortunat Joos and Stefan Gerber (University of Bern), Colin Prentice (University of Bristol), Otto-Bliesner, and Paul Valdes (University of Bristol) used time slice simulations of the last 21,000 years from CSM1.4 and the Hadley Centre Unified Model to drive the carbon component of the Bern Carbon Cycle Climate (Bern CC) model. The Holocene ice core record of a 20 ppm rise is matched by the model. Calcite compensation, in response to earlier terrestrial uptake, terrestrial carbon uptake and release, SST changes, and coral reef buildup, explain this increase. The greening of the Sahara, peat buildup, and land use probably influenced atmospheric CO2 by only a few ppm.\nThis figure shows the cumulative changes in terrestrial carbon inventory predicted by the BERN CC model when forced by CSM (global changes indicated by dotted line) and Hadley Centre Unified Model (latitude bands indicated by shaded areas).\nZhengyu Liu (University of Wisconsin), Otto-Bliesner, John Kutzbach (University of Wisconsin), L. Li (Chinese Academy of Sciences), and Shields compared coupled climate simulations of the NCAR CSM1.4 and the University of Wisconsin Fast Ocean-Atmosphere Model (FOAM) on the evolution of global monsoons in the Holocene. The evolution of the six major summer monsoons, Asian, North African, North American, Australian, South American, and South African, are investigated for the insolation forcing of 3000, 6000, 9000, and 11,000 years before present. In the Northern Hemisphere, the models show an enhancement of the monsoons in the early Holocene and a gradual weakening toward the present, with ocean feedbacks modifying their forced response.\nThis figure shows monthly evolution of land precipitation anomalies from present predicted by CSM1.4 for 3500 (solid), 6000 (dot), 8500 (dash-dot), and 11,000 (dash) years before present for the Northern Hemisphere monsoons.\nClauzet, Ilana Wainer (Universidade de Sao Paulo, Brazil), Alban Lazar (Universidade de Sao Paulo, Brazil), Brady, and Otto-Bliesner examined the CSM1.4 simulation of the South Atlantic at the Last Glacial Maximum. Changes of mass transport within this basin are associated shifts in circulation features.\nCarrie Morrill (CCR) is creating a database of high-resolution paleoclimate records for studying abrupt climate change during the last deglacial and the Holocene. These records have been selected from the large number of published paleoclimate records for their robust age models and well-supported climatic interpretations. Thus far, over 120 records have been compiled. Morrill is using these records to understand the timing, spatial patterns, and possible causes of several past abrupt climate changes. These include events in the mid-Holocene (~4000-6000 years ago) and early Holocene (~8200 years ago). Abrupt climate changes are identified in these records using a variety of non-parametric tests to identify discontinuities in the paleoclimate time-series. In collaboration with Claudia Tebaldi (Research Application Program), Morrill is further developing and refining these methods.\nFor the mid-Holocene, Morrill has found several periods of preferred change centered on ~4200 and ~5600 years ago. Abrupt changes at these times occurred over decades to centuries, and were associated with the transition from the Holocene climatic optimum to the Neoglacial during which temperature decreased in the middle to high latitudes and precipitation decreased in the tropics. The event at ~4200 years ago was also associated with archaeological evidence for the collapse of several ancient civilizations, including the Akkadian in Mesopotamia and the Indus in India and Pakistan.\nMorrill, in collaboration with Bob Jacobsen (William and Mary), is constructing global maps of climate anomalies during the 8.2K event. These will be used for comparison with output from experiments planned for CCSM3 in collaboration with others in CCR and Oceanography. These experiments will examine the climatic impact of freshwater pulses to the North Atlantic that are similar to the glacial meltwater flood that caused the 8.2K abrupt climate change. The last synthesis of paleoclimate records spanning this event was completed in 1997 and, since then, there have been dozens of new records relevant to this subject published. Morrill and Jacobsen have identified several patterns that will be of use in model-data comparison. These include a temperature decrease of 1-2 \u00baC over Europe, regional drying in the tropics, and little evidence for change in the Southern Hemisphere.\nMorrill, Otto-Bliesner, Caspar Ammann (CCR), and Brady are working with Dwight Owens and Dolores Kiessling of COMET to create a web-based learning module for undergraduates. The module explains how changes in the earth\u0092s orbit affect insolation seasonally and latitudinally and, in turn, how this drives glacial-interglacial cycles. The module contains a number of interactive exercises and animations. These can be used by instructors for classroom demonstrations and homework or lab exercises.\nMorrill contributed a review of the mechanisms of abrupt climate change for the NOAA Paleoclimatology Program\u0092s \u0093Paleo Perspective on Abrupt Climate Change\u0094 website www.ncdc.noaa.gov/paleo/abrupt/index.html. This website reviews the state of our current knowledge about the causes and effects of past abrupt changes.\nThis figure shows the location of paleoclimate proxy records that have been compiled from the published literature to study abrupt climate\nchanges during the Holocene.\nNatural Climate Variability During the Period of Annually Resolved Records\nAmmann and Tomas, supported by the Weather and Climate Assessment Science Initiative of Linda Mearns (Environmental and Societal Impacts Program), use high-resolution paleoclimate proxy records in an attempt to extend the limited (~150 years) instrumental record. Prior centuries and millennia have exhibited significant natural climate variations that had a tremendous impact on the environment and societies around the world. Such records offers an ideal and highly relevant test bed for scientific evaluation of both empirical proxy-based research, as well as for testing the sensitivity and validity of global climate models normally applied for future climate simulations. Each of the approaches provides specific insights into the functioning of the climate system, but each also has its clear weaknesses. It is the goal of the research to work at the intersection of state-of-the-art climate models and the proxy-community in order to contribute to a better understanding of the range and causes of natural climate variability and to clarify nature\u0092s role in climate today and possibly in the future.\nClimate Modeling Using NCAR-CSM 1.4 and NCAR-CCSM 3\nAfter implementation of natural external forcing factors into the standard coupled model (explosive volcanism and solar irradiance changes), Ammann and collaborators (in particular Fortunat Joos) performed numerous historical transient simulations and short sensitivity studies of the recent past. A core element is the detection and attribution of climate changes to external forcing. Ammann studies ways to detect this impact in collaboration with statisticians and their students (Philippe Naveau, University of Colorado; H-S. Oh, University of Alberta, Canada). The group developed multi-resolution techniques (based on discrete wavelet transforms and empirical mode decomposition methods) and state-space models (using modified Kalman filtering techniques taking skewed distributions into account) that are adapted to the typical signals of smooth solar irradiance changes and volcanic spikes, respectively. The detection work focused first on single time series, but has been expanded to large gridded datasets from model output. A clear solar influence has been found that is stronger than previously assumed. Because the same temporal fingerprint is also present in proxy reconstructions, the conclusions were drawn that the sun does affect climate on the century time scale (see Figure below). However, the same simulations also show that smaller rather than larger solar irradiance changes in the past are more consistent with the proxy based climate records, and independent of the possible magnitude of past solar changes, the late 20th century warming cannot be attributed to solar irradiance changes.\nThis figure shows wavelet decomposition of forcing (top: blue) and climate response as seen in CSM 1.4 Millennium simulation and a set of proxy reconstructions. The time scale is focusing on the dominant ~200-year deVries cycle.\nThe analysis is not restricted to large-scale Energy Balance questions, but the AO-GCMs are tested for specific response in the dynamics to the imposed radiative forcings. The proxy record is hinting at the possibility that the response of several climate modes might potentially be more systematic than previously thought. In such a case, and if the models should be able to reproduce a corresponding signature, this would tremendously enhance the predictive skills of climate models on regional scales. Collaborative work is looking into modes such as the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO), ENSO and the Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO). Additional analysis is evaluating the monsoon response to the radiative forcing.\nAmmann worked with Andrew Conley (CMS) on a 10-member ensemble simulation of the Mt. Pinatubo eruption (June 1991) with the coupled NCAR CCSM 3 model. Radiative fluxes and surface climate changes are studied. The volcanic aerosol is now a standard implementation in CCSM 3.\nProxy Climate Reconstructions: Methods, Uncertainty, and Optimization\nProxy-based climate reconstructions depend on a short calibration period using the assumption that the link to the climate parameter \u0097 and often also to teleconnected modes of variability \u0097 is stable over time. Models provide means to test these assumptions. Ammann and Eugene Wahl (Alfred University) evaluated the reliability of various climate reconstruction techniques using the fully forced coupled climate model output. Through this process, they help to optimize reconstruction efforts and determine crucial spatial gaps in the available proxy records.\nThis figure shows a test of single point stationarity: Artificial Central Chile Tree-Ring series of the past millennium based on subsampling of fully forced CSM 1.4 simulation. White noise was added to the precipitation series to match real world tree-ring to El Ni\u00f1o correlation.\nOn the forcing side, Ammann is working with a group at Rutgers University (under guidance of Alan Robock) on a new reconstruction of volcanic aerosol based on the largest collection of ice core data over the past millennia. The global ice coring community actively supports the work. In parallel, Ammann is collaborating on statistical modeling of temporal forcing distributions (primary solar frequencies, volcanic forcing as extreme value series). Such detailed characterizations of the forcing (see Figure below) provide a quantitative base for signal detection in noisy climate reconstructions. Solar forcing is approached through collaborations with proxy and modeling partners to establish a process understanding and detection framework to evaluate which dynamical pathways are most consistent in explaining climatic signals extracted from the proxy reconstructions.\nThis figure shows: Left: Result from automatic volcanic pulse detection (red) using the Greenland Ice Sheet Project Two (GISP2) ice core raw data with associated posterior probability (confidence: blue) in the signals. Right: Statistical distribution of extracted magnitudes of volcanic sulfate pulses with a fitted Pareto (extreme value) distribution with a clear heavy tail.\nRegional Fidelity of Climate Simulations Compared with Proxy Data\nA strong new emphasis of the research of Ammann is focused on the regional scale. This effort is pushing the frontiers of current paleoclimatic research aimed at evaluating and establishing spatial response patterns to radiative forcing. The research is not restricted to the past but has a clear application also in future climate assessment.\nTropical climate variability response to forcing: Previously regarded as most independent mode, ENSO variations over the recent past seem to contain significant externally forced response behavior: cooling in E equatorial Pacific during increase solar irradiance, but higher occurrence of warming during low-solar irradiance as well as after large volcanic eruptions.\nEurope: Evaluation of dominating circulation regimes isolated in historical reconstructions and model. NAO and blocking cases with comparable behavior in control and low-solar case. No blocking was found in high-solar situation because of a too strong polar vortex and volcanic signal in circulation over Europe.\nE-Asia (China): three selected time windows around significant volcanic or solar forcing periods as well as the drought episode that brought the Ming Dynasty to its knees. General circulation model (GCM) (NCAR-CSM and Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS)) analysis and Regional Modeling using GCM boundary conditions with MM5.\nCentennial scale ocean anomalies: A strong ~125-year oscillation in the N-Atlantic ocean was found. Since no similar oscillations are known in the real world (except of about half the frequency), significant effort was put in to understand this variation. The impact is far reaching in atmosphere and ocean, including the thermohaline overturning.\nFuture Climate Change:\nThe Climate Change and Prediction (CCP) group consisting of Warren Washington (CCR), Gerald Meehl (CCR), Lawrence Buja (CCR), Aixue Hu (CCR), Vincent Wayland (CCR), Haiyan Teng (CCR), Gary Strand (CCR), David Lawrence (CCR), and Julie Arblaster (Bureau of Meteorology Research Centre) is one of the primary components of the joint NSF/DOE climate modeling research program. With a strong focus on climate change over decades to centuries, the CCP group continues to carry out centuries long climate simulations and ensembles addressing all five of the key global change issues identified by the Climate Change Science Program (CCSP) and the U.S. Global Change Research Program (USGCRP):\nseasonal to interannual climate variability,\nclimate change over decades to centuries,\nchanges in ozone, ultraviolet radiation, and atmospheric chemistry,\nchanges in land cover and in terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems, and\nthe role of aerosols.\nIn June of 2004, the CCSM version 3 (CCSM3) became available for users. Since that time we have carried out over 5000 years of high-resolution climate change simulations with the new CCSM3 that have included the major forcings on the climate system such as ozone, land cover, solar variability, volcanoes, sulfate aerosols, and greenhouse gases for the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) simulations with climate forcings for the 20th, 21st, and 22nd centuries. In addition, climate simulations with the Parallel Climate Model (PCM) continue, adding to the already existing large archive of simulations. It is expected that the CCSM3 and PCM will provide the largest set of IPCC simulations of 20th, 21st and 22nd century climate for the IPCC Assessment Review 4 (AR4) of any group in the world. We have worked with the Program for Climate Model Diagnosis and Intercomparison (PCMDI) (see below) and used the DOE Earth System Grid (ESG) capability to make the data readily available to the broader climate research community.\nCollaborations with Other Organizations\nThe CCP climate research program supports the DOE comprehensive climate modeling research program through climate model diagnosis and prediction of climate change from increasing greenhouse gas concentrations and other forcings of the climate system. This program relies on distributed research collaborations spanning NCAR, the Naval Postgraduate School (NPS), the Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL), the Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory (GFDL), National Energy Research Scientific Computing Center (NERSC), Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL), Argonne National Laboratory, PCMDI and several universities. This project will complement the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's (NOAA) climate modeling program emphasizing decade-to-century climate prediction. The program is also tightly linked to DOE's component of the federal High Performance Computing and Communications Program through the High Performance Computing Research Centers at LANL and ORNL. The latter also has the Center for Computational Sciences and the National Leadership Computing Facility.\nIn 1998 at the National Workshop on Advanced Scientific Computation, the plans of DOE and the NSF were discussed. The DOE, NSF, and NASA have agreed to continue to collaborate on climate model development ,with emphasis on redesigning of the climate model components and the method of coupling components for newer generation supercomputers. This national effort has been transformed by each agency into computing initiatives that have led to increased computer capability. During the last few years, the NCAR DOE-supported research effort played a key role in the DOE Accelerated Climate Prediction Initiative (ACPI) Demonstration Project. This project has successfully concluded and the results were published this year. Our involvement in the DOE Climate Change Prediction Program (CCPP) Avant Garde project has resulted in the next generation flux coupler and improved aspects of the atmospheric model. The next generation flux coupler is now in the fully operational phase. The federal government has developed the CCSP which stresses reducing uncertainties. Special emphasis will be on improving climate models, as well as improved understandings of aerosols, regional climate change, and the impacts of climate change.\nThe coupled atmosphere, ocean, land/vegetation, and sea ice PCM has been in production at a number of centers for several years and is carrying out ensembles of climate change simulations including those for the IPCC AR4. The PCM continues to be used for climate change simulations with various climate forcings such as land cover and carbon aerosol forcings, and at the same time there has been a transition to the newly released CCSM version 3. The PCM is not undergoing any new development. However, because of the large number of existing PCM ensemble simulations, the PCM will continue to be used for climate sensitivity analysis. For example, two recent papers by Ben Santer of PCMDI along with DOE-funded collaborators Washington, Meehl ,and Arblaster have been published in Science. Both used PCM simulations to show that an increase in tropopause height and a warming of the troposphere have been mainly due to increases of greenhouse gases. These papers have generated a great deal of attention, and they indicate an additional measure of global warming other than surface air temperature. Another example is a recent paper in Science by Meehl and collaborator Tebaldi from RAP/ESIG. They analyzed PCM multi-member ensemble simulations of 20th and 21st century climate to show that heat waves will become more intense, more frequent and longer lasting in the 21st century due to an increase of greenhouse gases in the model. To support future PCM work such as this, the PCM is currently being ported to the Cray-X1 and Linux platforms.\nBoth the NSF/CCSM Climate Change Working Group (CCWG) and the DOE CCPP are particularly interested in regional aspects of climate change. We have seen that by increasing the horizontal resolution with the uncoupled version of the Community Atmosphere Model (CAM) to T85 (developed by the Climate Modeling Section (CMS) and the CCSM Atmosphere Model Working Group), there has been substantial improvement in the regional aspects of precipitation especially in mountainous areas. This is particularly important for the western North American regions. Also, there is improvement in the surface winds in the Arctic Ocean region, which in turn improve the sea ice distribution. Even though there have been substantial improvements, there are some model biases that are not dependent on resolution. Working on such biases will be a high priority for CCSM in the next year and this Cooperative Agreement will contribute to the research involved in addressing them.\nSince the CCSM3 release in the spring of 2004, we have worked with many CCSM scientists and software engineers preparing the climate forcing datasets for the twentieth century. We also worked with others to develop the future climate forcing scenario datasets for the twenty-first century. As noted above, it is expected CCSM will be one of the major contributors to the upcoming IPCC AR4. We also have performed the same scenario simulations with the PCM, which will allow for an intercomparison with same forcing between two different models. We are in the process of completing the simulations by November 2004.\nThe PCM continues to be used by researchers for additional simulations run on many different parallel supercomputers to further leverage existing climate simulations with greenhouse gases, sulfate aerosols, ozone, land cover, carbon aerosol, solar, and volcanic forcings. Most of the simulations for each forcing have an ensemble of four to five members. There are more than 100 simulations of a century or longer with a 1500 year control simulation for 1870 conditions. We believe this is the largest set of freely available climate forcing experiments ever completed by any modeling group, and is a significant achievement as this represents an unprecedented dataset to study climate variability and climate change. The data from the ensemble simulations are being archived at PCMDI and NCAR with total size of approximately 1.6 million files and 143 Tbytes. The data are freely available to researchers via the Internet by the use of the DOE/ SCIDAC sponsored Earth System Grid or by contacting PCMDI. We have already added over 100 Tbytes from the CCSM3 IPCC simulations to the archive.\nDescription of IPCC Simulation Production Process\nThis production effort represents a multi-institutional distributed effort by scientists and software engineers at NCAR, ORNL, NERSC, and the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL).\nThis figure shows IPCC CO2 concentrations. In addition to CO2, the simulations are run with solar, volcanoes, sulfate aerosols, ozone, and other greenhouse gases for the period 1870-2000. A spread of CO2 concentrations for future forcing scenarios are used from years 2000-2200 that also include sulfate aerosols and ozone.\nThe IPCC scenarios that are being run can be categorized into two groups: a set of \"commitment scenarios\" and a number of \"science scenarios\" that explore alternative future emissions outcomes. The IPCC SRES science scenarios that were recommended to the global coupled climate modeling groups by the IPCC WG1 include SRES A2, SRES A1B, SRES B1. The A2, A1B, and B1 scenarios consist of five-member ensembles run from the year 2000 to the year 2100. Then, commitment scenarios are run with the concentrations of all atmospheric constituents in A1B and B1 held constant at year 2100 values, and the model continues to the year 2200 with five member ensembles. One of the ensemble members from each is continued for an additional 100 years to the year 2300 with constant year 2100 concentrations. There is also a 20th century commitment scenario that freezes concentrations at levels observed in the year 2000, and the model is run to the year 2100. For the first time, these runs are being carried out with the high-resolution T85 (roughly 140 km latitude-longitude resolution) version of the new CCSM3.\nThis figures shows the CCSM3 IPCC Run Plan: The IPCC scenario runs are being run at NSF/NCAR (blue), DOE/ORNL (green), and DOE/NERSC (red). Parallel runs on the Earth Simulator (pink) were made with the scientific assistance of the NCAR program.\nThe PCM and the CCSM3 IPCC runs are being performed at the NSF/NCAR, DOE/ORNL and DOE/NERSC supercomputing sites. (We recently hired Haiyan Teng through supplemental funds to assist in running the experiments and diagnosing the results. An additional set of parallel runs, using the same version of CCSM3 with forcing datasets prepared by the NCAR program, was run on the Japanese Earth Simulator (ES). Focused model development support from the ORNL and LANL science and software engineering teams, significant dedicated computing resources at NCAR and ORNL, a large computing allocation at NERSC, and 24 hour/7 day run monitoring/ support by NCAR staff have kept the IPCC runs on track for completion in time to meet IPCC data submission and paper publication deadlines Most recently, NERSC consultants assisted the NCAR team to run the NERSC A2 5 member ensemble as one single 1020 processor massively-parallel run.\nThis figure shows PCM IPCC simulations for the AR4: Globally averaged surface air temperature anomalies from the BAU, Stab, A1F1, B1, A1B, B2, and A2 scenarios are shown along with simulation in which the 20th century greenhouse gases are frozen at year 2000 values (\u009320thC freeze\u0094), as well as simulations where A1B and B1 concentrations are frozen at year 2100 values and the model is run to the year 2200. The shading shows the range of ensemble members and the heavy line is the mean of the ensemble. Note for the 20th century freeze simulation surface temperature warms by 0.3-0.4 0 C.\nThe data products from the PCM and the CCSM3 IPCC simulations will be used for climate change impact studies and as boundary conditions to drive regional-scale models. To support DOE and NSF regional modeling efforts, we are outputting two additional subdaily data streams for each of the CCSM IPCC scenarios. By design, the raw and post processed data products from the different IPCC scenarios are being kept at the DOE and NSF sites where they were computed. This large distributed dataset is being freely served to the U.S. climate research and education community via the DOE Earth System Grid (ESG).\nThis figure shows CCSM3 DOE/NSF IPCC scenario runs as of 4 October 2004: Observed forcings (solar, volcanoes, greenhouse gases, sulfate aerosols, carbon aerosols, and ozone) are used during the historical period, from years 1870-2000. A variety of future forcing scenarios (20th Century freeze, B1, A1B, and A2) are used from years 2000-2200 to simulate the most likely range of future climates. Two of the commitment scenarios (A1B and B1) will be executed out to year 2300.\nThe results of this project will be submitted as the U.S./DOE contribution for the IPCC AR4. The integrated picture formed by these scenarios will be the basis for long-term energy and resource use policies. By the use of higher resolution studies, we are providing data to the climate impacts community that will be more useful than previous studies. Performing simulations in the 2003-2005 timeframe is a high priority for the DOE and the national effort.\nLand-Atmosphere Interaction and the Water Cycle\nGlobal climate models are often employed to investigate whether and how soil moisture anomalies affect weather and climate in the current and in a potentially different future climate. A recent model intercomparison by Lawrence demonstrated that the degree of land-atmosphere interaction varies widely between current state-of-the-art AGCMs. Models with different inherent coupling strengths can lead to vastly different conclusions about climate sensitivity. Land-atmosphere coupling strength, or the extent to which a precipitation-induced soil moisture anomaly influences the overlying atmosphere and thereby the evolution of weather and the generation of precipitation, is reasonably strong in the (CAM2/CLM2) but is very weak in the Hadley Centre modeling system (HadAM3/MOSES2). The notable differences in behavior between these two models may enable the precise mechanisms that control land-atmosphere interactions to be ascertained. Key aspects of the indirect soil moisture-precipitation feedback have been evaluated and compared in both models. While the study is not yet complete, preliminary results indicate that it is relatively unlikely that differences in the land surface schemes can explain the large differences in coupling strength. Instead, it appears that the simulation of the diurnal cycle, particularly the simulation of boundary layer moist static energy and the relationship between moist static energy and convection, are likely the largest factors contributing the considerable differences in coupling strength. In CAM2/CLM2, moist static energy builds differently during the day over moist and dry soils, which leads to heavier precipitation over wet soils. In contrast in HadAM3/MOSES2, soil moisture exerts virtually no control on moist static energy in the boundary layer and henceforth convection is essentially unaffected by the soil moisture characteristics. Research aimed to identify how differences in the boundary layer and convection schemes between the two climate models affects the diurnal buildup of moist static energy is ongoing.\nClimate Variability Associated with Atlantic Thermohaline Circulation\nAiguo Dai (CAS) has analyzed a 1200-yr unforced control run and climate change simulations under projected greenhouse gas forcing during the next two centuries for changes in Atlantic Ocean circulations as simulated by the PCM. The strength of the Atlantic thermohaline circulation (THC) shows large variability (amplitudes \u00bb 1.5-3.0 Sv) at 15-40 year time scales, with a sharp peak of power around 24 years in the control run. Associated with the THC oscillation, there are large variations in the North Atlantic SST, sea surface salinity (SSS), sea-ice fraction, and net surface water and energy fluxes, all of which lag the THC by 2-3 years. However, the net effect of the SST and SSS variations on upper ocean density in the midlatitude North Atlantic leads the THC by ~6 years or 90o in phase. This density vs. THC phase lag provides a direct mechanism for the 24-year cycle to oscillate through density's effect on North Atlantic deep water formation. The PCM-simulated SST and sea-ice variations resemble observed spatial patterns associated with the NAO. This suggests that the THC multi-decadal variability is coupled with the NAO in the model. Forced by projected CO2 and other trace gases for the next two centuries, the PCM shows significant weakening (by ~12%) of the THC during the 21st century, even after removing the un-forced THC drift during the period. In the 22nd century, the THC continues to weaken (by additional ~10%) if atmospheric CO2 keeps rising, but stabilizes if the trace gases level off.\nSouthern Annular Mode Trends\nArblaster and Meehl have investigated the trend in the Southern Annular Mode during recent decades that has involved an intensification of the polar vortex. The source of this trend is a matter of scientific debate with stratospheric ozone losses, greenhouses gas increases, and natural variability all possible contenders. Since it is difficult to separate the contribution of various forcings to the observed trend, the PCM is utilized here to isolate the responses of the climate system to single forcings. Ensembles of 20th Century simulations forced with the observed time series of greenhouse gases, tropospheric and stratospheric ozone, sulfate aerosols, volcanic aerosols, solar variability, and various combinations of these are used to examine the annular mode trends in comparison to observations. We find that ozone changes are the biggest contributor to the observed summertime intensification of the southern polar vortex in the second half of the 20th century, with increases of greenhouse gases also a necessary factor to reproduce the observed trends. Although stratospheric ozone losses are expected to stabilize and eventually recover to pre-industrial levels over the course of the 21st Century, these results suggest that the observed trends in atmospheric circulation will continue into the future.\nDevelopment of the Earth System Grid (ESG)\nDuring the last year, the ESG was taken into full production, serving as the primary online data distribution mechanism for the DOE/NCAR PCM and CCSM runs. The extensive PCM climate experiment collection, the new CCSM3 control runs, as well as the initial results from the IPCC runs with CCSM3, are now being served to the US and international scientific community via the ESG. Gary Strand was instrumental in moving the ESG from a pilot project to a production facility, working with the ESG development team, building the initial metadata catalogs, and supervising the large-scale production of CCSM and PCM ESG metadata catalogs.\nEffects of Land Cover Changes as Part of the IPCC Assessment\nJohannes Feddema (University of Kansas) used the PCM to assess the sensitivity of a fully coupled climate model to changes in land cover. By comparing three simulations representing present day land cover from different data sources, we conclude that there is significant model sensitivity to land cover characterization, with an observed average global temperature range of 0.21K between the simulations. These results show that careful consideration needs to be made of the land cover boundary conditions used in land cover change experiments.\nIn addition, we compare the variability in the three present day simulations to the differences observed between comparable potential vegetation (pre-human) and present day land cover simulations to assess the potential historical impacts of land cover change on climate. The historical change simulation is significantly different from all the present day simulations with a 0.386K higher average global temperature and, perhaps of greater importance, regionally up to 2K. From these results we conclude that land cover change could play a significant role and should be included in future climate change simulations. With respect to the IPCC, changes of land cover as a forcing of the climate system have not been fully explored. This study provides some quantitative measure of the impact. Several NCAR scientists were involved in this research: Linda Mearns (ESIG), Keith Oleson (TSS) Gordon Bonan (TSS), Meehl, and Washington.\n20th and 21st Century Climate\nCollaborative work by Meehl, Dai, Washington, Tom Wigley (CAS), Arblaster, and Ping Liu (International Pacific Research Center, University of Hawaii) examined the influences of various anthropogenic forcings over the 20th and 21st centuries in the PCM. These experiments show that the response of globally averaged temperature in the model to individual forcings is mostly additive, and that only by the addition of anthropogenic forcing mainly from greenhouse gases can the model produce the large warming observed in the second half of the 20th century. They also studied the effects of increasing CO2 emissions on the magnitude of future global warming and the effects of global warming on the extent of the Sahara desert. The latter study showed that the PCM, along with several other models in the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP), reproduced a decreasing rainfall trend during the 20th century in the Sahara region as observed, and in future climate the Sahara becomes smaller, moves north and west, and continues to dry. Meehl and Washington collaborated with Ammann and others to document the effects of a new volcanic forcing dataset now being used in the PCM and CCSM3 20th century simulations.\nMeehl and Arblaster completed a study on the processes that affect changes in precipitation in the Indian monsoon. They used the PCM to document increases in mean monsoon rainfall and enhanced interannual variability with increased CO2. Regional increases in Indian Ocean SSTs played a role in these changes, but influences from the tropical Pacific were even more important for future increases of interannual variability in the monsoon.\nBen Santer (LLNL) collaborated with a team of scientists, including DOE funded NCAR scientists Meehl, Washington, and Arblaster, and used the PCM to show that trends in the lower tropospheric temperatures from satellite data were consistent with a global coupled model that included known anthropogenic forcings for the period of the Microwave Sounding Unit (MSU) data (including aerosols from Mt. Pinatubo). The model and observed data analyses indicate that tropopause height is a valid new index to monitor global warming. They also addressed the issue of large El Ni\u00f1o events and their influence on trends in short data records such as the MSU, where the 1997-98 El Ni\u00f1o event at the end of the record induced a warming trend that was absent prior to that event. They showed that the models with El Ni\u00f1o amplitudes comparable to observations can produce trends nearly as large due to sampling of 20-year records similar to the observations.\nThere is ongoing collaborative work at NCAR by Meehl with Tebaldi and Doug Nychka (GSP) to analyze changes in variability and extremes in ensembles of future climate projections. This work is using statistical analyses of extremes, as well as threshold methods to study changes in weather and climate extremes in the PCM. They have shown that the change in base state atmospheric circulation, due to the increase of greenhouse gases in the PCM, affects the pattern of future changes in frost days (nighttime minimum temperatures below freezing) and heat waves. For example, frost days decrease most over western North America due to an anomalous ridge of high pressure over that region that is caused by changes in tropical SSTs and convective heat sources. Heat waves become more intense over the western and southern U.S. in the 21st century due to positive 500 hPa height anomalies caused by the increase of greenhouse gases. These circulation anomalies are again related to changes in tropical SSTs and convective heating anomalies.\nMeehl with Washington, Wigley, Arblaster, and Dai have analyzed the solar forcing ensemble runs with the PCM for 20th century climate compared to the ensemble runs without solar forcing. Results show that the observed early century warming is only simulated when solar forcing is included. A main difference in climate system response in the solar runs compared to the runs without solar forcing is that tropical precipitation regimes are more intense due to early century solar forcing compared to late century greenhouse gas forcing, suggesting for the first time that solar forcing could affect the climate system in some regions through coupled ocean-atmosphere interaction and consequent precipitation processes.\nDai, Hu, Meehl, Washington, and Strand analyzed the ensemble simulations of the 20th and 21st century climate by the PCM under greenhouse gas and sulfate aerosol forcings. Over the midlatitude North Atlantic Ocean, the model produces a moderate surface cooling (1-2\u00b0C, mostly in winter) over the 21st century. This cooling is accompanied by changes in atmospheric lapse rates over the region (i.e., larger warming in the free troposphere than at the surface), which stabilizes the surface ocean. The resultant reduction in local oceanic convection contributes to a 20% slowdown in THC. Dai and collaborators also documented results from the ACPI pilot project, where the PCM was used to force a regional model, as well as streamflow models, to examine the effects of global warming on water resources in California.\nArblaster and Meehl collaborated with David Karoly (University of Oklahoma) and a team of scientists to use a set of simple indices in a detection/attribution study for North America. The PCM was one of a set of models used in this study to show that humans have indeed influenced the climate over North America.\nMeehl collaborated with Harry van Loon and Ralph Milliff (Colorado Research Associates) and addressed onset of warm events in the Southern Oscillation in the early 1990s. Two aspects of the onset of a warm event in the Southern Oscillation are 1) the subtropical South Pacific High is weakened in early southern winter which weakens the trade winds and reduces upwelling along the equator, and 2) in the months that follow, and particularly during the mature phase of the warm event during southern summer, the negative SST anomalies in the equatorial eastern Pacific cold-water tongue are displaced by positive anomalies. Based on these criteria, Meehl and collaborators identified two warm event onsets that occurred during the early 1990s, in 1991 and 1994. This result refutes earlier work that the early 1990s may have been one long ENSO event and has implications for understanding and interpreting anthropogenic influences on ENSO in climate change simulations.\nvan Loon also collaborated with Meehl and Arblaster to follow up on the analysis of solar forcing in the PCM, but to look for similar signals in satellite and reanalysis data. Results show that comparable processes are at work in the observations and model in that greater solar forcing enhances climatological patterns of precipitation in the tropics, resulting in higher amplitude precipitation over the monsoons and ocean convergence zones.\nMeehl and Arblaster worked with Johannes Loschnigg (University of Hawaii) and a team of scientists to study recent variations in Indian Ocean circulation related to interannual variability associated with the Tropospheric Biennial Oscillation (TBO). Results showed that the Indian Ocean plays an active role in monsoon and tropical Pacific interannual variability that is important to understand for interpreting the processes that contribute to 20th century climate variability.\nMeehl worked with Duane Waliser (State University of New York) and a team of scientists to document intraseasonal variability in global coupled climate models including PCM. They showed that such variability is generally weak in current models, but that ocean coupling seems to improve the simulations of intraseasonal variability somewhat.\nMeehl collaborated with Washington and Arblaster to analyze four recent NCAR global coupled models (PCM, CSM, PCTM, and CCSM) to show that the relevant feedbacks for climate system response to increasing CO2, (ice/albedo, water vapor, and clouds) are managed by the atmospheric model. The ocean, sea ice, and land surface play secondary roles for the globally averaged response. Two models with identical atmospheres but different ocean and sea ice components (PCM and PCTM) have the most similar response to increasing CO2, followed closely by the CSM with comparable atmosphere and different ocean and sea ice. The model that is most dissimilar, the CCSM, has a different response from either of the other three, and in particular is different from PCTM in spite of very similar ocean and sea ice but different atmospheric model components. The role of ocean heat uptake is also crucial to understand the response of the respective models, and depends on the THC in the Atlantic Ocean.\nPorting of the PCM on to the CRAY and Linux Computer System\nAlthough the PCM is not being developed further there are still several science groups that are interested in performing simulations. The reason for the continued use is that we have an extraordinary archive of previous simulations with various climate forcings. For example we are still exploring different solar forcing, carbon aerosol, and land cover changes for researchers at several universities. Since the model is still in use, Vince Wayland is making the model available on the CRAY and Linux machines. The status is that the PCM has ported to the Cray X1 this past year; however, there are still software problems to be solved. Preliminary performance results showed good scaling on 4 to 16 processors without any Cray specific additional optimization (vectorization). Additional work will be done to enable the use of up to 64 processors. Some Cray specific optimization may also then be undertaken. The PCM is currently being ported to a Linux cluster named Bangkok in the NCAR CGD environment. This cluster consists of Dell workstations containing Intel chips. As soon as the NCAR SCD IBM Linux cluster, Lightning, is made available to users, the PCM will be ported there also. These ports should provide a general framework for additional Linux ports as they are required.\nExamination of Future Abrupt Climate Change\nHu, with Meehl and Weiqing Han (at Program in Ocean and Atmospheric Sciences, University of Colorado), worked on detecting the THC changes from ocean properties using NCAR\u0092s CCSM2 model, since significant changes of the THC are likely to cause abrupt climate change. Here we intend to find a simple measure to detect changes in THC through examining several factors proposed to control the THC variations using a coupled climate model. These factors are Equatorial-South Atlantic upper ocean temperature, Southern Ocean freshening, inter-basin sea surface salinity contrast, and meridional steric height gradient. Three experiments are analyzed: a present-day control run, a freshwater hosing run, and a 1% CO2 run. Results show that, if freshwater flux is the primary cause, all examined factors can predict the THC changes. If both thermal and haline forcings are involved, only the Atlantic meridional steric height gradient gives a consistent measure of the THC variations. A new result presented here is that the inter-basin sea surface temperature contrast between North Atlantic and North Pacific is found to be an indicator of THC changes.\nUnderstanding Recent Past North Atlantic Ocean Circulation\nHu worked on understanding the changes in North Atlantic Ocean and the relationship with the meridional overturning circulation in the last 50 years of the 20th century using the PCM. Observations show a freshening and cooling sub-polar North Atlantic in the last 50 years of the 20th century. This trend is related to the changes on the NAO pattern. In PCM historical runs, the observed trend in North Atlantic is realistically simulated. However, the model didn\u0092t capture the observed NAO trend. By analyzing the changes of the oceanic meridional overturning circulation and the surface heat and freshwater fluxes into the northern North Atlantic in our model, we found that it is the slowing of the meridional overturning circulation that induces a reduced meridional freshwater divergence responsible for the freshening, and a reduced meridional heat convergence is responsible for the cooling. Those surface fluxes and the sea ice volume flux into this region work towards reducing the effect induced by a slower meridional overturning circulation.\nHu also worked on analyzing the THC, sea level, and heat content changes in 20th and 21st centuries from PCM IPCC runs. Preliminary results show that the THC weakens about 1 Sv in the last 25 years of the 20th century. And it stays at roughly the same strength in the 21st century for the 20th century freeze scenario, and by the end of the 21st century; it weakens by 3 to 5 Sv for B1 scenario, 5 to 6 Sv for A1B scenario, and 6 to 8 Sv for A2 scenario. The simulated changes of upper 300-meter ocean heat content in the last 50 years of the 20th century are equivalent to an increase of upper 300-meter ocean temperature by about 0.2 oC, agreeing well with the observations (Levitus et al, 2000). For the projected scenarios, the upper 300-meter ocean temperature will additionally increase 0.2 oC, 0.45oC, 0.9oC, and 1.05 oC for 20th century freeze, B1, A1B, and A2 scenarios, respectively. The upper 3 km ocean heat content changes also agree well with the observations, with about a 0.05oC increase in upper 3 km ocean temperature in the last 50 years of the 20th century. The global mean sea level change in the 20th century is about 4 cm, roughly 25% of the changes suggested by observations. The projected sea level change by the end of the 21st century in comparison with year 1999 is 6 cm, 13 cm, 17.5, and 19 cm for 20th century freeze, B1, A1B, and A2 scenarios. Changes in the THC due to increased CO2 are important in future climate regimes. Using the PCM, regional responses of the THC in the North Atlantic to increased CO2 and the underlying physical processes are studied here. The Atlantic THC shows a 20-year cycle in the control run, qualitatively consistent with observations. Compared with the control run, the simulated maximum of the Atlantic THC weakens by about 5 Sv or 14% in an ensemble of transient experiments with 1% CO2 increase per year at the time of CO2 doubling. The weakening of the THC is accompanied by reduced poleward heat transport in mid-latitude North Atlantic. Analyses show that oceanic deep convective activity strengthens significantly in the Greenland-Iceland-Norwegian (GIN) Seas, but weakens in the Labrador Sea and the south of Denmark Strait Region (SDSR). The strengthening of deep convective activity in the GIN Seas is mainly caused by an increased salty North Atlantic inflow, reduced sea ice volume fluxes from the Arctic into this region, all of which lead to a saltier (denser) upper ocean. The weakening of deep convective activity in the SDSR is induced by a reduced sea ice flux into this region and a reduced heat loss to the atmosphere, which leads to a warmer (lighter) upper ocean. On the other hand, the weakening in the Labrador Sea is mainly attributed to increased precipitation that freshens the surface ocean. These regional changes produce the overall weakening of the THC in the Labrador Sea and SDSR, and more vigorous ocean overturning in the GIN Seas. The northward heat transport south of 60oN is reduced with increased CO2, but increased north of 60oN due to the increased North Atlantic water across this latitude.\nThis figure shows Atlantic maximum meridional overturning circulation evolution from 1870 to 2099.\nMore information may be found at www.cgd.ucar.edu/pcm/ and www.ccsm.ucar.edu/working_groups/Change/.",

        "raw_content": "To explore the link between Passover and freedom.\nby Helen Levesley\nTo tell the story of the first Passover, and by encouraging students to imagine the events of Passover taking place in the community where they live, to explore the link between Passover and freedom.\nBackground: Passover usually coincides with Maundy Thursday and continues for eight days.\nSee \u2018Deliver Us\u2019 from The Prince of Egypt (Stephen Spielberg/DreamWorks) for images of each section of the Seder plate (these are during the early part of the film); or use http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passover_Seder where there are images of the plate and table.\nPrepare ten readers: two readers to ask the Four Questions, and eight readers for the section about the Seder plate. You may also like to ask the readers to hold up the images of the symbolic food, or project these images (see section 8).\nI would like you to close your eyes for a little while. Now take a second to relax. (Pause)\nThe best thing about our imaginations is that they can take us anywhere. I want to go back to a time long ago. Imagine that you are a slave. You work for a cruel master who forces you to keep working even when you\u2019re exhausted and feel you can work no more.\nEven when you finish your day\u2019s work, and go home, you still don\u2019t feel that you\u2019re safe. Those around you treat you as a second-class citizen, and you have to practise your religion in secret. You are beaten if you dare to disobey the slave masters.\nYou desperately want to get out of this country where you are enslaved. You long to escape to a country where you can be free. You long to return to the land of your ancestors, the Promised Land, given to them by God.\nYou desperately want to feel hope, but when you try to think what it might be like when things are better, you don\u2019t want to hope too much, just in case it doesn\u2019t come true.\nNow, open your eyes. How did that make you feel? (You may like to get the children to respond.) Do you feel trapped, lonely, upset, sad and angry? Maybe all of those emotions, including many more.\nI could be talking about any time in history \u2013 black slaves in America, people imprisoned for their beliefs, or Christians in times of persecution. However, I am going to talk to you about when the Israelites (the ancestors of today\u2019s Jews) were slaves in Egypt.\nEvery year in March or April Jews celebrate one of their key festivals \u2013 Passover or Pesach. This festival recalls the story of Moses and how he led the Israelites to freedom from the slavery and persecution they were experiencing in Egypt.\nMoses is a key figure for the Jews and this is why they celebrate the festival of Passover. Every year at Passover, Jews tell of how Moses returned to Egypt from exile with a task from the Lord. He was to go to the Pharaoh and say to him, \u2018Let my people go.\u2019\nPharaoh was too proud to obey the God of his slaves. Besides, he needed his slaves to build Egypt\u2019s cities and make Egypt great. He refused.\nGod sent plagues on Egypt: water turning into blood, a plague of locusts, of darkness, of boils and many other things. Moses always warned Pharaoh in advance, but Pharaoh paid no attention to the warnings and each time he refused to let the Israelites go.\nAfter nine plagues a final one was sent. This was a plague that would surely make the Pharaoh change his mind. Moses warned Pharaoh that if he did not let the people go, the angel of death would pass through the land, and kill all the first-born male children. The Israelites were given special knowledge from God. They were told that if they sacrificed a lamb, and put some of its blood on the doorposts and on the tops of the doors of their houses, the angel would \u2018pass over\u2019 their homes without stopping. This would show the slaves that they were God\u2019s chosen people.\nThe Israelites did as they were instructed, and their children were safe but all the first-born boys of the Egyptians were killed, including the son of the Pharaoh. Having lost his child, he finally released the Israelites. In the middle of the night, when his son had just died, he called for Moses and told him to lead his people away from Egypt.\nThe story can be found in the book of Exodus, in the Bible. The word \u2018exodus\u2019 itself means evacuation or flight. The Israelites had to leave in a hurry in the middle of the night. They had made dough for bread but there was no time to add yeast (leaven) and wait for the bread to rise and then bake it. They put their dough without yeast in bowls and took it with them and then after they had left Egypt, they baked unleavened flatbread on campfires.\nThe Jewish Festival of Passover recalls this very event \u2013 the passing-over of the angel of death and the liberation of the people from their slavery in Egypt. The festival lasts for eight days, and in Israel all eight days are observed as full rest days, while in non-Jewish countries, just the first and the last two days are rest days.\nOn the first night of the festival, Jews come together in their own homes for the Seder meal, which is a family meal held to remember and celebrate the first Passover. Seder means \u2018order\u2019 and the ceremonies are all done in a particular order. Special plates and cutlery are used, which are kept exclusively for Passover. At the Passover meal, the food is always the same, and symbolizes the events of the Passover.\nThe Haggadah is a text which tells in 14 steps the story of the Jewish experience in Egypt and of the Exodus and revelation of God. It contains songs, blessings, psalms and Four Questions, all of which are read and sung during the meal.\nAs the story of each of the ten plagues is read out, a drop of wine is spilt to remind Jews that their liberation was tinged with sadness at the suffering of the Egyptians.\nChildren are central to the festivities and there are special games which are meant to hold their attention. In fact, it is the youngest child who asks the Four Questions during the Seder meal. The purpose of these questions is to remind everyone of the importance of the Seder meal and the meaning of the symbols.\nReader 1 Why do we eat unleavened bread?\nReader 2 Unleavened bread, or matzo, is eaten to remember the Exodus when the Israelites fled from Egypt with their dough to which they had not yet added yeast.\nReader 1 Why do we eat bitter herbs?\nReader 2 Bitter herbs, usually horseradish, are included in the meal to represent the bitterness of slavery.\nReader 1 Why do we dip our food in liquid?\nReader 2 At the beginning of the meal a piece of potato is dipped in salt water to recall the tears the Jews shed as slaves.\nReader 1 Why do we eat in a reclining position?\nReader 2 In ancient times, people who were free reclined on sofas while they ate. Today cushions are placed on chairs to symbolize freedom and relaxation, in contrast to slavery.\nEach of the components of the meal is special, and there is a Seder plate on which the symbolic food is arranged.\n(Each reader holds up an image (use PowerPoint if that is easier) of the following, while saying the words.)\nReader 1 Matzo (unleavened bread), which is eaten symbolically three times during the meal.\nReader 2 A bone of a lamb to represent the lamb that was sacrificed.\nReader 3 An egg, also to represent sacrifice. Eggs become harder when they are cooked. So the egg also symbolizes the Jews\u2019 determination not to abandon their beliefs under oppression by the Egyptians.\nReader 4 Greenery (usually lettuce) to represent new life.\nReader 5 Salt water to represent a slave\u2019s tears.\nReader 6 Four cups of wine to recall the four times God promised freedom to the Israelites. Everyone, even the children, drink these cups of wine.\nReader 7 Charoset (a paste made of apples, nuts, cinnamon and wine) to represent the mortar used by the Israelites to build the palaces of Egypt.\nReader 8 An extra cup of wine is placed on the table and the door is left open for Elijah. Jews believe that the prophet Elijah will reappear to announce the coming of the Messiah and will do so at Pesach.\nThe Haggadah ends with the words: \u2018Next Year in Jerusalem, next year we will be free.\u2019\nThis festival is incredibly important because it not only recalls the flight from Egypt, but it reminds Jews of the times when they have been persecuted in the past, and also reminds them that God will always free them from their chains because they are the chosen people.\nWhen I feel there is no one else to help me, remind me that you are there.",

        "raw_content": "Economix | April 25, 2011 [ View Original Source (opens in new window) ]\nBy Nancy Folbre.\nTrust in other people greases the wheels of economic development. The management maven Steven Covey argues that high-trust companies are more successful than others. Higher incomes, in turn, seem to carry trust to higher levels.\nBut as a recent Economix post by Catherine Rampell reports, cross-country surveys show that income inequality is negatively related to trust. Largely as a result, the average level of trust is significantly lower in the United States than in more egalitarian countries, particularly those of Scandinavia.\nAnd we seem to feel less trusting every day. A survey released at a recent World Economic Forum indicated that trust in both business and government had declined more steeply in the United States than in other countries as a result of the recent financial crisis.\nHave sharp increases in inequality in the United States since the 1960s made us more cynical and suspicious?\nSurveys don\u2019t necessarily provide accurate indicators of how people behave, and they certainly don\u2019t show cause and effect. But some economists (including my fellow Economix blogger Ed Glaeser) use experimental methods to research these issues.\nSome find that inequality can exert a strong effect. A working paper by Shaun Heap, Jonathan Tan and Daniel Zizzo reported results of a \u201ctrust game\u201d in which players can transfer resources to other players in the hope that additional resources will be transferred back to them. They found that inequality among players had a corrosive effect on trusting behaviors, particularly when players had specific knowledge of one another\u2019s endowments.\nWhy might inequality reduce trust?\nOne possibility is that differences in income, including those based on race, ethnicity, gender or age, reduce the tendency of individuals to identify with one another. Greater variation simply leads to less familiarity. By this account, rich people would be as unlikely to trust the poor as vice versa.\nBut other causal linkages may come into play, including class conflict. In an analysis of individual-level data from the United States General Social Survey, the economists Alberto Alesina and Eliana La Ferrara found that belonging to a group that has historically felt discriminated against or labeled \u201ceconomically unsuccessful\u201d reduces trust.\nAs the economist Jack Hirshleifer explained in a classic article, \u201cThe Dark Side of the Force,\u201d extreme differences in wealth and power among groups often lead to appropriation or exploitation rather than trade. Not surprisingly, humans have learned to be suspicious of those who have the capacity to do them harm. By this account, the powerless are less likely to trust the powerful than vice versa.\nIn an effort to explain country-level differences, the political scientists Bo Rothstein and Eric Uslaner argue that public policies play an important role. In particular, means-tested programs \u2013 those that make receipt of benefits contingent on an income or asset test \u2013 tend to foster mistrust among people. By contrast, universal programs tend to strengthen social solidarity.\nProfessors Rothstein and Uslaner emphasize that the causality works both ways. Less social solidarity means less support for more egalitarian policies. Countries can get caught in a trust trap in which inequality and mistrust feed on one another.\nThis observation seems consistent with the American experience, where partisan acrimony makes means-tested programs like Food Stamps and Head Start particularly vulnerable.\nThe Center for Budget and Policy Priorities estimated that two-thirds of the budget cuts proposed by Paul D. Ryan, Republican of Wisconsin and chairman of the House Budget Committee, were directed at low-income Americans. Major cuts in entitlement spending are called for down the road.\nMeanwhile, prolonged unemployment is increasing the ranks of the \u201ceconomically unsuccessful,\u201d even as corporate profits soar.\nThis increased inequality will further increase cynicism and mistrust in America, making it even more difficult for us to collaborate effectively with one another. You don\u2019t have to trust me. Just wait and see.\nThe Center for Budget and Policy Priorities is an Atlantc grantee.\neconomic equality, income inequality, social justice, The Center for Budget and Policy Priorities",

        "raw_content": "All life is by its very nature creative\u2014everything alive is constantly trying to make more of itself. Humans, however, are uniquely creative. It\u2019s not enough that we make more humans; we also have to make Tupperware, The Eiffel Tower, and Hamlet. This great gift, however, came with a bit of a price. In order to create imaginatively, we must be able to cast our vision into the future and recall the past. This, I believe, is more or less what Adam and Eve got when they bit that fruit. It\u2019s a neat trick, this applied imagination, but a dangerous one. Quantum physics aside, neither the past nor the future exist in the Here And Now, yet these imagined moments can be as great a force in your life as the man sitting next to you on the bus. Greater actually. Regret is the act of trying and failing to rewrite the past; worry is an attempt to solve a problem that does not yet exist. These twin devils cause far more trouble than anyone or anything with which you are in contact at the moment, and precisely because they do not exist.\nWe are to some degree all children with super powers. Imagine if a three year-old could lift a car with one hand. This is all of us. We arrived with a tool so immensely powerful there is literally no limit to what it can do. You are capable of imagining yourself right into prison, if you like. Once, a man trapped in what he believed was a meat locker overnight died of hypothermia. The locker was room temperature, but he had convinced himself otherwise.\nWe must understand our super power for what it is. It need not be our greatest source of suffering. The imagination is a fantastic tool, but The Here And Now is where you live. You are a captain of your own ship, and the waters you must navigate are beneath you. Because of our imaginations, we know that we will someday die\u2014yet we were not gifted with an imagination for that bleak purpose. Imagination is the crackling of life itself, inspiring creation not for survival\u2019s sake, but for creation\u2019s sake alone, which, to our own continued wonderment, seems to be enough.\nImagination, WritingBill Kenower February 7, 2011 Creativity, Future, Imagination, Past, WritingComment\nChoice, WritingBill Kenower February 4, 2011 Genres, Preferences, Writing",

We have the best resources on the internet to point you in the right direction towards car insurance companies in your area that offer comprehensive coverage at an affordable price.\nLubbock, Texas is such a well-known \u201cHub City\u201d that that also happens to be the nickname of this Township. Economically, it\u2019s one of the best places to start a new business and even attracts students from all of the world thanks to its international educational opportunities and extensive Baccalaureate programs.\nFun fact: The City of Lubbock is on the short list of most populous cities; it\u2019s the number 83 most populous cities in the US, and it\u2019s number 11 of the most populous cities in the state of Texas. Uncover more about Lubbock.\nDriving legally in Lubbock requires:\nIt\u2019s your responsibility as a driver to work with your insurance company and pick just the right amount of coverage for your vehicle. Liability only is it popular option because it is the least expensive; but not purchasing enough coverage on certain types of vehicles can get very expensive very quickly. It\u2019s a delicate balancing act.\nThe average monthly premium for car insurance in Texas is around $194. Unfortunately, for motorists in Lubbock, that can be even higher! Some drivers who use the resources on our website have been able to cut that number in half \u2013 and you can too.\nAverage Monthly Auto Insurance Premiums Legend: Lubbock Safe Auto The General Allstate Jupiter Auto Dairyland 20 40 60 80 100 120 140 160 180 200 220 $76 $229 $74 $80 $78\nThe Texas Farm Bureau is a local insurance company that offers some of the cheapest monthly premiums for Lubbock residents. Major providers like GEICO, Progressive, and 21st Century also operate within the state. It\u2019s important to find a premium that you can afford, but it\u2019s also important to find a company that will be there for you when you need to file a claim and so you can get back on the road. Thankfully, these two attributes are not mutually exclusive.\nCompanies that provide Texas auto insurance coverage are calculating your monthly premium based on the number of different factors. Some of the more important ones include your location, your vehicle, and specific statistics about driving risks in your area. Your job and your driving record may also drive your premium up or down.\nMajor Car Insurance Factors in Lubbock\nThere are hundreds of thousands of people living in Lubbock right now according to the latest US Census. That\u2019s a lot of other drivers on the road! The more populated your city is, the more likely you are to get into an accident. This is especially true if you spend a lot of time driving both recreationally and to and from work. As of 2016, 252,514 people were reportedly living in Lubbock. The estimated average income is $48,103 annually.\nAuto Insurance by Zip Code Legend: Lubbock Dallas Fort Worth Safe Auto The General Allstate 20 40 60 80 100 120 140 160 180 200 220 240 $76 $80 $49 $229 $247 $218 $74 $110 $90\nIf you need any inspiration to drive safely in Lubbock, remember this one important fact: based on the statistical data, you have a 1 in 100,000 chance of getting into a fatal accident at any moment while you are behind the wheel. For some cities, this number is relatively low. In other areas, this is extremely high. If your insurance company decides that these numbers but the odds in your favor of avoiding a crash, they will likely charge it lower premiums for your coverage.\nFatal Accidents in Lubbock, TX Legend: Lubbock Fatal Accidents Vehicles Involved in Fatal Accidents Fatal Crashes Involving Drunk Persons Fatalities Persons Involved in Fatal Crashes 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45 50 55 60 $25 $40 $7 $28 $61\nAuto Thefts in Lubbock\nThere were over 1,000 auto thefts in Lubbock during 2016. For many insurance providers, this is a very frightening number! This may not raise your monthly premium too much if you are driving an older car that isn\u2019t typically targeted by auto thieves. On the other hand, newer and higher-priced vehicles are definitely at risk \u2013 and so is your ability to find an affordable car insurance premium.\nBasic vs. Comprehensive Auto Policy Legend: Basic Coverage Comprehensive Coverage Safe Auto The General Allstate 20 40 60 80 100 120 140 160 180 200 220 240 $76 $229 $229 $242 $74 $237\nHow is your credit? You don\u2019t have to tell us now, but you will have to answer that question for your insurance company. The higher your credit, the more likely you are to get a low rate. Whether it\u2019s conflation or correlation, insurance companies have observed a pattern between safe drivers, drivers who pay their premiums on time, and a higher credit score. That\u2019s why monthly premiums tend to be cheaper for people with good scores.\nAuto Insurance by Credit Score Legend: Good Credit Poor Credit Safe Auto The General Allstate 20 40 60 80 100 120 140 160 180 200 220 240 260 280 $76 $85 $229 $299 $74 $116\nDrivers with more experience \u2013 up to a certain point \u2013 are more likely to avoid an accident and than younger, inexperienced ones. As a matter of fact, teenagers within their first year or two of driving are statistically more likely to get into an accident than not. This is the main reason why auto insurance for teenagers and young adults in their early twenties can seem astronomically high.\nAuto Policy Age Comparison Legend: 17 Year Old Driver 35 Year Old Driver Safe Auto The General Allstate 35 70 105 140 175 210 245 280 315 350 385 420 $287 $76 $449 $229 $264 $74\nYour driving record says a lot about who you are as a motorist, how likely you are to file a claim in the future, and how expensive those claims will be. Even something as seemingly trivial as a small speeding ticket can send your premiums soaring through the roof if it rings alarm bells for your insurance provider. Having a clean record at least three to five years out before applying for a new policy will help you get lower rates.\nDriving Violations Legend: Perfect Record Minor Violation Major Violation Safe Auto The General Allstate 20 40 60 80 100 120 140 160 180 200 220 240 260 280 300 320 $76 $104 $238 $229 $229 $242 $74 $133 $321\nCertain types of vehicles require more coverage than others. And more expensive coverage at that! Basically, the younger, shinier, prettier, and more expensive your vehicle is, the more you will have to pay to keep it financially protected. Drivers of older yet reliable vehicles won\u2019t have to suffer such a financial burden when it comes to paying their premiums.\nCar Insurance by Make/Model Legend: 2015 Honda Accord 2015 Chevy Corvette Safe Auto The General Allstate 25 50 75 100 125 150 175 200 225 250 275 300 $76 $178 $229 $301 $74 $224\nMinor Car Insurance Factors in Lubbock\nWhile the factors below tend to have a smaller effect in making your premium more or less expensive, they are none the less important:\nOh, to be in love\u2026it isn\u2019t just a wonderful thing in general. It\u2019s also good news in the eyes of your insurance company. Married individuals tend to be a little bit safer behind the wheel. They also tend a bundle insurance policies with their spouse, which gives your insurance company more business and which prompts them to reward you with a nice discount.\nYou\u2019ve probably heard theories that men are more aggressive drivers than women, and therefore more dangerous behind the wheel. While some statistical data shows this to be true, more and more auto insurance companies are ignoring it in favor of giving their customers a relatively equal rate \u2013 regardless of gender. But that doesn\u2019t mean you shouldn\u2019t ask your insurance agent what their company policy is when it comes to pricing coverage by gender.\nDespite Lubbock being such a big city with so many people, it usually doesn\u2019t take that much time for people to get to work. Your average commute can be anywhere from 10 to 20 minutes, which means you\u2019ll be spending less time on the road and more time saving money on a lower car insurance premium.\nYou may also want to try driving fewer miles each year in order to get a discount from your provider. Granted, some commuting \u2013 such as driving back and forth to and from work \u2013 simply cannot be helped. But carpooling with coworkers or with friends on the weekend when you go out is a good way to start reducing your annual mileage.\nLots of drivers know that there\u2019s an inverse relationship between your deductible and your car insurance premiums. The higher your deductible, the less money your insurance provider will have to pay out if you do file a claim. They like to reward drivers who agree to take more financial responsibility by lowering their premiums. But if you have a $500 or a $1,000 deductible and you get into a serious accident, it could take a long time for you to get back on the road if you don\u2019t have any money saved up.\nEducation in Lubbock, TX\nThere\u2019s little more than a 4-6% difference between people in Lubbock with a high school diploma and a bachelor\u2019s degree. While nearly a quarter of the population stopped after they graduated high school, another 22% went on to improve their lives by pursuing a higher education.\nTexas Tech University is one of the most prestigious institutions of Higher Learning in Lubbock. The highest level of Education they offer is a Doctorate Degree, and they specialize in the Health Sciences. Lubbock Christian University is a less popular religious institution of higher learning which may also offer Doctorate Degrees in certain subjects. Beyond that, you have private colleges such as Kaplan and the Covenant School of Nursing and Allied Health.\nAt the end of the day, your education, your credit score, and your driving record will all play a part in determining how much your car insurance cost. But the biggest player in that equation is you! You can take charge of your financial destiny and compare rates right now with our car insurance comparison quotes tools. We can virtually guarantee you a lower rate in 5 minutes or less.",

Within three hours a delivery had been made which was amazing.

Franco was originally scheduled to give one of the paper\u2019s TimeTalks tomorrow, specifically focused on his work on the recent Globes winner The Disaster Artist. Franco\u2019s brother (and co-star on the film), Dave Franco, was also expected to appear.\nCritics began raising new concerns about Franco on Sunday night, after he was seen wearing a Time\u2019s Up pin, in support of increased female representation and vigilance against sexual harassment and assault, at the Globes ceremony. One woman, actress Violet Paley, spoke up on Twitter, accusing Franco of coercing her into a sexual act when she was only 17, while another accused him of mistreating and under-paying her for nude scenes on the set of one of his films. Franco has yet to comment on the accusations against him, although Paley\u2019s said he called her a few weeks ago to offer \u201cme & a few other girls an overdue, annoyed, convenient phone \u2018apology.\u2019\u201d\nNot even Tommy Wiseau could distract Twitter from James Franco&apos;s alleged sexual misconduct\nHere\u2019s what Tommy Wiseau wanted to say onstage at the Golden Globes",

        "raw_content": "EMPOWERING, ONE BEAN AT A TIME\nPacita Juan: Keeping the Coffee Cup Runneth Over for Pinoy Women\nFilipino social entrepreneur Pacita Juan looks to the earth in her work to empower women who toil the land but fail to exploit the full potential of the fruits of their labour.\nIn her early days touring the countryside, Pacita Juan found, to her surprise women would harvest coffee almost all-year round. However, they would only sell the coffee beans once a year during the Patron Saint festival.\n\u201cI asked the women what happens when the festival is over? They said they would stop harvesting coffee beans because they didn\u2019t have anywhere to sell them.\u201d\n\u201cThat\u2019s when I thought, these women needed an outlet to sell their products and that\u2019s how Figaro Coffee Company was created,\u201d says Pacita. She opened Figaro's first outlet with six friends in 1993.\nI have seen a lot of women become empowered. They become a better person, ready to grow and reach their full potential, once you give them the chance to be empowered\nPacita Juan is widely known as well-respected businesswoman. She was CEO of Figaro for 15 years, growing the brand within the Philippines and abroad, with over 90 outlets globally.\nNot resting on her laurels, Pacita then decided to turn her focus on social entrepreneurship, with the focus to help women.\n\u201cI have seen a lot of women become empowered. They become a better person, ready to grow and reach their full potential, once you give them the chance to be empowered,\u201d says Pacita.\nFrom a coffee connoisseur to an advocate for women empowerment she encourages women from small communities to find a niche in the market and develop on it.\n\u201cThere\u2019s so much more than needs to be done than just coffee. There\u2019s coconut, peanuts, chocolates and so forth.\u201d\n\u201cWhen their products do well, it gives these women pride. Pride makes them want to do it over and over again,\u201d says Pacita.\nThis led her to develop ECHOstore, Environment and Community Hope Organization, an eco-friendly store that carries natural products, supporting smaller producers and craftsmen.\nECHOstore has since expanded into ECHOcafe, ECHOmarket and ECHOfarms, which allows customers to experience a wide array of healthy food options along and purchase environmental friendly merchandises.\n\u201cWe help the producers when it comes to packaging the product to appear on the specialty market. You have to dress them up because first impression is key. If a product isn\u2019t packaged nicely, no one will try it,\u201d\n\u201cWe also help them with variance or the taste - whether it is sweetened, unsweetened, salty, spicy. This will also help the packaging process.\u201d Pacita adds.\nWhat is next for Pacita Juan?\n\u201cWe are mainstreaming our products. In other words, I\u2019m not their only client. They must be able to work together as a community, cluster their products and sell to supermarkets and other trade channels.\u201d\nPacita is chairperson of the ASEAN Women Entrepreneurs Network and President of the Philippine Coffee Board. A mentor to women entrepreneurs, she aims to educate more local producers to successfully run a business.\n\u201cSometimes, the producers come to you with a ceiling price. So, we train them on product costing. That way, they will come to you more intelligently, with smart computation on how much the product really cost,\u201d\n\u201cI want to motivate them to scale up. By scaling up, they can be more sustainable,\u201d says Pacita.",

        "raw_content": "Oil at $100 a barrel - what now?\nJ. Thomas AndrewsThe Baltimore Sun\nAt $100 a barrel, we're in the midst of an oil crisis. Biofuels and hybrids will not save us in time. But oil shale might.\nCurrently, biofuels are not economically competitive with conventional crude. Even if they someday become competitive, it will take decades to allocate enough land to biofuel feedstock production before biofuels make a meaningful contribution to America's energy recipe. As for hybrids, they won't penetrate the U.S. market in large quantities for many years.\nThe only real option America has if it hopes to free itself from the shackles of foreign petro-dependency in the near future is to find new sources of domestic petroleum. Oil shale is, perhaps, the most promising option.\nOil shale is a type of rock that has a petroleum precursor called kerogen trapped inside it. This kerogen can be extracted and upgraded into liquid fuels such as synthetic gasoline and synthetic diesel. The U.S. has the largest oil shale resources in the world. According to the Rand Corp., as much as 1.1 trillion barrels of synthetic petroleum could be recovered from the Green River Formation that straddles Colorado, Wyoming and Utah. That is approximately equal to all of the proven reserves of conventional oil on Earth.\nPromoting the development of an American oil shale industry would help keep hundreds of billions of dollars in the hands of Americans and out of the hands of Middle Eastern governments. Moreover, it would stimulate massive job growth in America and increase tax revenue - money that could be used to reduce the deficit, improve our schools and fund medical research.\nThe primary objection to oil shale development relates to greenhouse gases. Indeed, a large-scale U.S. oil shale industry would increase greenhouse gas emissions, but not by a significant amount.\nIf published reports are remotely accurate, shale oil now appears to be significantly cheaper than conventional crude. In addition, shale oil appears to be significantly cheaper than any biofuel or coal-to-liquids solution. For the first time in history, America's vast oil shale resources appear to be economically viable. It would be a shame not to develop them.\nJ. Thomas Andrews is a venture capitalist and Maryland resident. His e-mail is j.thomas.andrews@gmail.com.",

        "raw_content": "Equanimity and Equities\nSteve Hefter's portfolios are designed for exactly the kind of days that followed the U.S. presidential election. Investors were hanging on every word from the president and congressional leaders, and markets were swinging with each mention of \"fiscal compromise.\"\n\"It's not a financial analysis anymore,\" the Wells Fargo advisor says from his suburban Chicago office a week after the election. \"What are politicians going to do? What's Greece going to do? What's Ahmadinejad going to do? These aren't financial calculations driving the market.\"\nHefter escapes the volatility with a mix of mutual funds that tend to shrug off global fears. A mix of preferred stock, municipal bonds, and long-short investing strategies, the funds provide \"equity like-returns with less-than-equity-like risk,\" he says.\nNew Strategies: \"You can have appreciably less risk and, as it turns out, appreciably more returns.\" Callie Lipkin\nHefter, 58, has been on the prowl for innovations since graduating from Harvard Business School in 1983. A Morgan Stanley rotation program exposed him to niche experiences in the bond, option, and equity departments, and taught him he preferred a more holistic approach\u2014the domain of a financial advisor. He spent 12 years as an advisor in Goldman Sachs' wealth-management business, followed by stints at Merrill Lynch and Morgan Stanley. He joined Wachovia Securities in 2007, a year before it was acquired by Wells Fargo.\nAfter spending his Goldman years working in Chicago's Sears Tower, Hefter is far more, well, grounded these days. His office is on the first floor of a quiet complex in Deerfield, Ill., a half-hour north of Chicago. From there, his eight-person team manages money for 295 clients, with a typical account of $10 million. Hefter ranked No. 16 on Barron's 2012 list of Top 100 Advisors.\nThe biggest change since he began in the 1980s? A move away from the 60/40 equity/bond split and toward a new wave of institutional-type investments, Hefter says, largely in the form of mutual funds that offer retail investors new opportunities to protect wealth. \"If you really look around, I think you can manage portfolios where you can have appreciably less risk and, as it turns out, appreciably more returns.\" Today he keeps 30% of his portfolio in mutual funds with long-short and global multi-asset strategies.\nAnother prime example is bank preferred stocks, which can yield 6% or more. (Banks are the biggest issuers of preferred stock.) The dividend is relatively safe, given banks' improved credit profile, and very attractive compared with treasuries.\nWith banks having made it through the credit crisis, the risk to their preferred issues have been dramatically reduced, Hefter contends. Preferreds soared once the government decided against any type of nationalization plan. \"They weren't going to allow another bank to fail, and that argument is still true today,\" he adds.\nHefter uses three funds to invest in preferred stocks: Nuveen Preferred Securities (ticker: NPSAX), Principal Preferred Securities (PPSAX), and Cohen & Steers Preferred Securities and Income fund (CPXAX). With total returns between 18% and 23%, the three funds have beaten the S&P 500 over the past year, with lower risk. (The funds all have a beta below one, meaning they're less volatile than the benchmark S&P 500.) Today, preferred stocks comprise about 10% of Hefter's typical portfolio.\nAnother 10% is devoted to tax-free municipal bonds, a particularly advantaged class \"now that it's virtually certain that tax rates are going up,\" Hefter says. The muni allocation is split evenly between investment-grade and high-yield issues. Hefter uses the Invesco High Yield Municipal fund (ACTHX) for some of the muni exposure. The fund specializes in bonds from small, under-the-radar public entities that don't want to spend the money on a costly rating service. That adds to the risk but also the yield.\nHefter is also buying floating-rate corporate bonds\u2014about 7.5% of his portfolio\u2014bracing for the rise in interest rates. \"We're going to have to inflate our way out of this,\" Hefter says. \"There is no other way; we are not going to accept deflation, not with [Fed Chairman Ben]Bernanke.\"\nHefter keeps nearly a third of his portfolio in U.S. stocks, and he sees the continued outflows from equity funds as good for stocks in the long term. With investors on the sidelines, \"think of all the money that is earning nothing,\" Hefter notes. \"If we really were to get on a path that would lower the deficit and move us forward growth-wise, you could see a huge move up in the market.\"\nSure beats a tumble from the fiscal cliff.\nSteve Hefter's portfolios are designed for exactly the kind of days that followed the U.",

An obvious example is The Man Your Man Could Smell Like commercial. In this advertisement Old Spice envisions their audience to be anyone who is in a relationship or trying to be in relationship. The more obvious targeted audience is the female audience. To attract the female audience they put an attractive man in the commercials and try to make it seem that if their \u201cman\u201d uses old spice body washes their \u201cman\u201d will be like him. Then they also use things such as a yacht to make it seem that if their body wash is used then they will have a rich husband/ significant other. Then the man also has many things that a woman would desire such as \u2026show more content\u2026\nAlso Old Spice expects the audience to believe that only sculpted men are attractive/ interesting. And the only way for a man to interest women is to be attractive or interesting.\nThe Old Spice commercial uses the Idea of Transfer which isn\u2019t so obvious. Hirschberg states that the ideas of transfer are \u201cideas, attributes, or feelings from outside the product onto the product itself.\u201d (Hirschberg 228 UCC) One subtle technique is the background images. One image is the beautiful ocean scene with the seagulls in the background. Also they use the beach with beautiful white sand and palm trees. Then they use objects that everyone desires. They man has diamonds pouring out of his hand. This is kind of like the example that Hirschberg uses. Hirschberg talks about the different idea of transfer used in cigarette commercials. The tobacco companies things such as waterfalls in the background and blue and green coloring on their packaging. The reason for the coloring and waterfalls is that cigarettes are commonly associated with burning tobacco leaves and dryness. But by putting the blue on their packaging and having waterfalls in the background the consumer doesn\u2019t think about that. Then it also uses a kind of catchy whistle in the end. And now any time you hear that whistle you know it\u2019s for Old Spice.\nThe Old Spice whistle has been a very successful\nRhetorical Analysis Of ' The Mercedes Ad Of The Red Sl Class Car '\nadvertisement that makes people want to purchase that item?

It showed \"cold blooded killings\", which it said should be urgently investigated by the Egyptian authorities.\nThe footage, which emerged on Thursday, was apparently filmed with a mobile phone and has been broadcast on Mekameleen TV, a station that supports the outlawed Muslim Brotherhood.\nIt appears to show two detainees being shot at point-blank range by Egyptian soldiers.\nOne man is already on the ground when he is shot four times.

        "raw_content": "New Faculty Books Look at Immigrant Life\nDaniel Kanstroom: Deportation system \u201cunprecedented in size, scope and harshness\u201d (Photo by Boston College Media Technology Services)\nBy Kathleen Sullivan | Chronicle Staff\nImmigration and immigrants \u2013 whether from Mexico, Syria or elsewhere \u2013 have been a constant topic of discussion and debate this year among politicians, media commentators and the general public. Two new books published by Boston College faculty, heralded last month at a book launch sponsored by the Center for Human Rights and International Justice (CHRIJ), explore different facets of the life of the immigrant in the US and in the Boston area, and both present a reality that is counter to many media soundbites.\nIn The New Bostonians: How Immigrants Have Transformed the Metro Area since the 1960s, History Professor Marilynn Johnson looks at how the large-scale immigration from Latin America, Asia and Africa that followed after the passage of the Immigration Act of 1965 helped to transform the city of Boston.\nAccording to Johnson, an urban historian, the late 1960s to the early 1980s was a low point for Boston in terms of economic development and population. \u201cThe city saw losses of both people and industry. Boston lost about a third of its population between 1950 and 1980 and lost some 40 percent of its manufacturing base in the 25 years after World War II. It was a city that had a lot of problems.\u201d\nThe 1980s saw Boston undergo an economic and physical revitalization, said Johnson, who set out to explore the relationship between the Boston renaissance and the new waves of immigrants.\n\u201cAlthough there were many things that went into the making of Boston\u2019s renaissance, one of the least appreciated is the role that immigrants played as a key ingredient. As both workers and residents, they helped to repopulate and revitalize neighborhoods and inner suburbs. It\u2019s a story that really needs to be told.\u201d\nThe \u201cold immigrants\u201d to Boston were mostly from Europe and Canada and were primarily unskilled and semi-skilled workers. The \u201cnew immigrants,\u201d explains Johnson, are from all skill and education spectrums, with a significant amount representing the professional category. In 2010, three-quarters of the foreign-born in Boston represented more than two dozen countries, including China, the Dominican Republic, Haiti and other Latin American, Caribbean, Asian or African nations.\nMarilynn Johnson: Role of immigrants in Boston\u2019s renaissance \u201cone of the least appreciated\u201d (Photo by Lee Pellegrini)\n\u201cSo the new immigrants have made Boston more diverse racially, ethnically, and through their educational and professional backgrounds,\u201d said Johnson.\nThe integration of the new Bostonians has not been without incident, noted Johnson. \u201cThe 1980s were the cross-currents coming together between the earlier period and the period we live in now.\u201d\nJohnson cited the large refugee migrations, lingering bitterness over the Vietnam War and the displacement of the native-born population over the loss of manufacturing jobs as converging to cause tension, resentment and violence, with immigrants serving as the scapegoats.\nJohnson plans to expand her research to a digital platform, tentatively titled Global Boston, which would include information that didn\u2019t make it into the book, oral histories and other historical sources. \u201cThere are a lot more stories to tell.\u201d\nThe New Deportations Delirium: Interdisciplinary Responses, co-edited by CHRIJ associate directors Daniel Kanstroom and M. Brinton Lykes, takes a look at the impact of the 1996 Illegal Immigration Reform and Responsibility Act on the country\u2019s immigrant population.\n\u201cThe United States has been engaged in a massive social experiment with deportation,\u201d said Kanstroom, a BC Law School professor. \u201cWe\u2019ve created a system that is unprecedented historically in terms of its size, its scope and its harshness. The prevailing rhetoric is that there is no or insufficient enforcement going on, when in reality there is massive enforcement. The government is spending billions and billions of dollars and deporting hundreds of thousands of people.\u201d\nMany facing deportation are long-term legal permanent residents with \u201cgreen cards,\u201d who have US citizen spouses and children, according to the editors.\nM. Brinton Lykes: Deportation practices belie the rhetoric of \u201cfamily-oriented\u201d America (Photo by Lee Pellegrini)\n\u201cThat [deportation] mechanism separates families,\u201d said Lykes, a professor in the Lynch School of Education. \u201cOur policies and practices belie our rhetoric of the United States being family-oriented.\u201d\nThe interdisciplinary conversation and work Kanstroom and Lykes have engaged in through the CHRIJ highlighted for them the need to have experts from different fields to contribute to this volume. The New Deportations Delirium includes chapters from lawyers, judges, social workers, psychologists, educators, community activists, a filmmaker, and the former director of the Department of Homeland Security\u2019s Office of Detention Policy and Planning.\nOne attorney writes of the inherent conflict he sees between family law and immigration law, because the welfare of the child is not a priority in both arenas. Other chapters are specifically collaborative between disciplines, including a chapter written by a social work professor and lawyer.\nThe New Deportations Delirium is \u201cdeeply infused by the voices of the migrants themselves,\u201d added Lykes, who co-authored one of the book\u2019s chapters. \u201cWhat do we understand from their point of view and how can we re-theorize how we think about migration based on their lived experiences?\u201d\nIn addition to students, Kanstroom hopes the book will reach policymakers and voters \u201cwho think they understand what deportation is and who, we hope, will come to understand how it actually functions. We tried to give a \u2018ground-up\u2019 perspective on the effects of deportation on real people, how the system has worked, its problems, its strengths, its weaknesses.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Money Management Explained\nYou've decided that betting on sports is a game that's for you, and you want to get more involved, make a greater commitment. Well, if that is indeed the case, the best approach, the method that will offer your the most likely opportunity at a successful outcome, is to go into the wagering world with an established gameplan. You need to approach sports betting as if it were a business - a business with a lot of fun, excitement and perks, but a business nonetheless.\nManaging Your Money In Sports Betting\nAnd what's first thing every successful business does at the beginning of each fiscal year? Why they create a budget, of course. This is also what you need to do as you enter into the world of sports wagering. You absolutely must implement a money management plan, beginning with the establishment of your bankroll.\nThink of this as the same way you might approach a night of poker with your buddies. You know how much money you can afford to lose before the game starts, and the smart player sets that amount aside and brings only that stake to the table, so they're not tempted to bet more than they can afford to lose. You must take the same plan of attack as you embark on your sports wagering adventure.\nBefore you place your first wager, you need a system in place, and we're not talking about one of those 1-800 numbers you see on TV in the middle of the night with their foolproof way to make a million betting on football. No, your system in this case is basically the budget for your business, and your business is betting on sports.\nFor starters, establish your stake, or your bankroll if you will. How much money are willing to commit, or can you realistically afford to commit to betting on the games people play? Is it $1000? Could you put aside $5000, or even $10000? It must be an amount that isn't going to take away cash flow that you need to cover the essentials of life - food, shelter, and clothing.\nStick To Flat Betting\nOnce you have established that bankroll, your next mission is to determine what percentage of the money are you willing to risk per wager. If your bankroll leans toward the higher end, then the estsablished quota in sports betting tends to lean toward between one and three percent per wager. If you've got a good feeling about a wager, go in at the three percent rate. For more conservative bets, where the outcome doesn't appear to be as certain, that's when you should never risk more than one percent of your bankroll.\nNow, if you are someone who is starting out with a smaller bankroll, then you will probably be required to skew these numbers a bit higher. In this case, the industry standards tends to run between five and eight percent of the bankroll per bet laid. You must adhere to the same principles when you wager as were outlined in the previous paragaph relating to those bettors with a high-end bankroll. And whatever you do, don't stray from your plan.\nThis bankroll can also be impacted by the manner in which you choose to bet. Are you planning to wager on just one sport, or do you plan to sample from the seemingly endless menu of sports betting opportunities? Even if you choose to focus solely on one sport, that sport can also impact how you wager. If football is your choice, the number of days they play per week is limited, and each teams plays just once per week. Hockey and basketball teams can play 3-4 games in a week, and baseball is in action most every day.\nRisk Management Is Vital\nIt's essential to always remember that sports betting is a lot like the faucets in your kitchen sink. It runs both hot and cold. You will find as you wager on games that there are going to be times when you can do nothing wrong. Everything is coming up roses, every bet is a winner, and the cash flow is suddenly excessive. This is not the time to decide that too much of a good thing is wonderful.\nYou've prepared a strategy before ever placing a single bet, and that will always be your strategy. It has to be if success is the endgame you have in mind for your sports betting empire. Just because you are ahead of the game, that doesn't mean you start making more bets than usual. And it most certainly does not allow you to dramatically increase the amount of your bankroll that you will wager. Think of it like this - if the lottery was $60 million instead of $6 million, would you buy $500 worth of tickets instead of $5? No.\nYou don't go overboard when the going is good, because betting on sports is just like life in general - it is filled with ups and downs. And at some point in the season, your bets are going to crash and burn. When things go south and the experience turns sour, it's absolutely paramount that you stick with your allotted wagering gameplan. Don't make crazy wagers in an effort to recoup your losses. It never works.\nThink of it this way - professional sports bettors, the best of the best, hit winners between 58 and 60 percent of the time. That means the LeBron James of sports wagering loses a minimum of four out of every 10 games they bet. You have to accept that losing is part of the lifestyle and roll with the punches.\nYou hear coaches all the time stressing that their team must stick to the process, even when the team isn't winning. That's sage advice for you as well. You've set up a strategy and implemented a gameplan. The good teams don't stray from their process, and neither do the good sports bettors.\nStick to your plan, and there's a good chance that at the end of the year when you assess how things went, you will find that your bankroll has blossomed.",

        "raw_content": "Loft Conversion Wasagasse Vienna\n\u00bbI don't want to change anything. After all, you don't buy a Picasso to complete it with a brush.\u00ab\nThe attic conversion of the house from the late 19th century was accompanied by Bernd Gruber from the search for the property to its completion. The central yet very quiet oasis at Schottentor was initially divided into two apartments. The interior design concept is based on classic modernism and follows a solid materiality that gains in character and quality with time and use. In the living loft, the walls themselves come to the fore as a design element and define the evolution from the wall surface to the wall body. Large window openings between the kitchen and living room create a volume whose architectural effect is loosened up with individual pieces of furniture from the Viennese art scene from the Art Nouveau period.\nReal estate search, conception, execution, construction supervision\nSubtle breaks: Straightness meets deliberately set accents.\nOn the day of the handover, the attic conversion was put through its paces until the early hours of the morning \u2013 and found to be good. Even days and weeks later, the owners were able to discover hidden details that made the apartment unique. For example, an engraving in the door handle or a lettering in the shower wall that can be read from both sides \u2013 each with a different meaning. This was made possible by mutual trust between client and team, and we are grateful for such a relationship. This was the only way to create something unique.",

She holds a degree in Sociology with disciplines in Gerontology and Women\u2019s Studies. After school, she came back to her hometown, Naples, to work for Naples Federal Savings and Loan, later acquired by Wells Fargo. Inspired by her mother, Glenna Hayhoe, a successful Naples REALTOR\u00ae, Beth became a licensed real estate agent in 1982. Like her mother, Beth assures that her buyers and sellers receive an exceptional professional, personal experience. In Beth\u2019s free time, she enjoys boating, kayaking, fishing, hiking, and spending as much time as she can with her husband, Captain Joe, two sons, and two dogs. Grateful for numerous happy, repeat customers, Beth demonstrates her passion for her profession through her hard work and values her solid reputation.\nCaptain Joe McNichols was born in Naples, graduated from Naples High School, and completed studies in Bird Biology from Cornell School of Ornithology. His passion for nature led him to become a United States Coast Guard Captain and professional fisherman and guide for Everglades National Park. With a vast knowledge of Naples history, Joe became a teacher for the Collier County Schools system, educating adults on the Science of Fishing and was featured on five nationally broadcast fishing shows, most recently \u201cFishing with Mariko Izumi\u201d on the Worldwide Fishing network. Joe\u2019s courteous and friendly demeanor gives him the ability to make sure his customers have fun in any situation, so transitioning to real estate was a natural fit. Joe has worked as a real estate professional with Beth for more than 20 years and is an expert in Naples, as he is also a general contractor, building and remodeling homes in Olde Naples. Joe not only knows Naples, but he is also a part of its musical culture. Residents and visitors will most likely see Joe performing in his band, \u201cCapt. Joe and the Bottom Feeders.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "1 But on the first day of the week, at early dawn, they came to the tomb, bringing the spices which they had prepared.\n2 And they found the stone rolled away from the tomb,\n3 but when they went in they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus.\n4 While they were perplexed about this, behold, two men stood by them in dazzling apparel.\n5 And as they were terrified and bowed their faces to the ground, the men said to them, \u00bbWhy do you seek the living among the dead?\n6 He is not here, but is risen! Remember how he told you while he was still in Galilee,\n7 \u0091The Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and on the third day rise again.\u0092\u00ab\n9 Then they returned from the tomb and told all these things to the eleven and to all the rest.\n10 It was Mary Magdalene, Joanna, Mary the mother of James, and the other women with them, who told this to the apostles.\n11 But their words seemed to them like idle tales, and they did not believe them.\n12 But Peter arose and ran to the tomb; and stooping down, he saw the linen wrappings lying by themselves; and he went away, marveling to himself at what had happened.\n13 Now behold, that same day two of them were going to a village called Emmaus, about seven miles from Jerusalem.\n14 And they were talking with each other about all these things that had happened.\n15 While they talked and discussed, Jesus himself drew near and went with them.\n16 But their eyes were kept from recognizing him.\n17 And he said to them, \u00bbWhat is this conversation which you are exchanging with each other as you walk?\u00ab And they stood still, looking sad.\n18 Then one of them, named Cleopas, answered him, \u00bbAre you the only visitor to Jerusalem and do not know the things that have happened there in these days?\u00ab\n19 And he said to them, \u00bbWhat things?\u00ab And they said to him, \u00bbThe things concerning Jesus of Nazareth, who was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people,\n20 and how the chief priests and our rulers delivered him to be condemned to death, and crucified him.\n21 But we had hoped that he was the one who was going to redeem Israel. Indeed, besides all this, it is the third day since all this happened.\n22 In addition, some women of our company amazed us. They were at the tomb early in the morning,\n23 and when they did not find his body, they came saying that they had also seen a vision of angels who said he was alive.\n24 Some of those who were with us went to the tomb, and found it just as the women had said; but him they did not see.\u00ab\n25 And he said to them, \u00bbO foolish men, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken!\n26 Did not the Christ have to suffer these things and enter his glory?\u00ab\n27 And beginning with Moses and all the prophets, he explained to them the things concerning himself in all the scriptures.\n28 As they drew near the village to which they were going, he acted as though he would be going farther,\n29 but they constrained him, saying, \u00bbStay with us, for it is toward evening and the day is now far spent.\u00ab So he went in to stay with them.\n30 When he was at the table with them, he took bread, blessed and broke it, and gave it to them.\n31 Then their eyes were opened and they recognized him; and he vanished from their sight.\n32 And they said to each other, \u00bbDid not our hearts burn within us while he talked with us on the road, while he opened to us the scriptures?\u00ab\n33 So they rose up that very hour and returned to Jerusalem, and they found the eleven and those who were with them gathered together,\n34 saying, \u00bbThe Lord has risen indeed, and has appeared to Simon!\u00ab\n35 Then they told what had happened on the road, and how he was known to them in the breaking of the bread.\n36 As they were saying this, Jesus himself stood among them and said to them, \u00bbPeace be with you.\u00ab\n37 But they were startled and frightened, and supposed that they saw a spirit.\n38 And he said to them, \u00bbWhy are you troubled, and why do doubts rise in your hearts?\n39 See my hands and my feet, that it is I myself. Handle me and see, for a spirit does not have flesh and bones as you see I have.\u00ab\n40 When he had said this, he showed them his hands and his feet.\n41 And while they still did not believe for joy, and marveled, he said to them, \u00bbHave you anything here to eat?\u00ab\n42 They gave him a piece of broiled fish,\n43 and he took it and ate in their presence.\n44 Then he said to them, \u00bbThese are my words which I spoke to you, while I was still with you, that everything written about me in the law of Moses and the prophets and the psalms must be fulfilled.\u00ab\n45 Then he opened their minds, so they could understand the Scriptures.\n46 And he said to them, \u00bbThus it is written, that the Christ should suffer and rise again from the dead the third day,\n47 and that repentance and forgiveness of sins should be preached in his name to all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.\n48 You are witnesses of these things.\n49 And behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you; but stay in the city, until you are clothed with power from on high.\u00ab\n50 Then he led them out as far as Bethany, and he lifted up his hands and blessed them.\n51 While he blessed them, he parted from them, and was carried up into heaven.\n52 Then they worshiped him and returned to Jerusalem with great joy,\n53 and were continually in the temple praising God.",

        "raw_content": "Three Amazing,Underutilized Apps for OS X & iphone\nI can\u2019t even being to describe how overwhelmed I sometimes feel searching around the App Store. For every app I\u2019m thinking I might need or want, there are thousands upon thousands of different options to choose from. I\u2019ll occasionally try and read the reviews of each app I\u2019m interested in, but then I become even more torn in my efforts to choose the right ones. In fact, if you took a look at my phone or tablet, you\u2019d be convinced I\u2019m an app hoarder.\nI like to use apps for everything: cooking, organizing, reading, recording, playing games online\u2013 for most anything really. Yet I sometimes find that the most useful apps on the market turn out to be the most underutilized. It takes a lot of money to promote, advertise, and sell apps, and oftentimes the most publicized ones aren\u2019t even the best ones out there. Truthfully, I believe that the best apps are often the ones we know the least about. For those of you who are looking to invest in a few new useful apps, I\u2019ve listed three specific ones that I feel are some of the most amazing, underutilized apps.\nEver have a moment when you\u2019re about to walk out the door and suddenly realize you\u2019re missing something important? Your iPhone, perhaps? Keys and phones are two things that seem to sprout legs and walk off, but with the free Find My iPhone app, you\u2019ll be able to track down that lost phone in no time. Simply install the app on your phone \u2013 before you lose it, of course \u2013 and when you\u2019ve discovered your phone is missing, use another iOSdevice to alert this app. The app will show you a map of where your phone is located, and if it\u2019s within close proximity, the phone will release a two-minute sound that will help you track it down. Believe me, this comes in handy when it\u2019s trapped underneath those sofa cushions. Furthermore, in the event that your phone has been stolen, the Find My iPhone app also allows you to erase all your personal data on command.\nMost of my days are spent in the confines of the kitchen, so I\u2019m a little bias about this app. YummySoup! is not only great for storing your personal recipes, it also works as an aggregator for all those recipes you stumble upon and want to cook in the future. For years all of my cookbooks have sat on the bookshelves collecting dust, since I mostly track down recipes from the Internet now. With this app, you\u2019ll be able to divide your recipes into categories, create grocery lists, import recipes from numerous websites, search aggregated recipes through keyword searches, and subscribe to receive any updated/new recipes from other YummySoup! users. It\u2019s useful for people who utilize blogs, cooking websites, and news outlets for culinary inspiration. Don\u2019t take my word for it though. Download it and get to cooking\u2019!\nThe Kindle App\nNow I know what you must be thinking: The Kindle is anything but underutilized. That is very true. The $200 Kindle device is not underutilized; the Kindle app, however, is very underutilized. There is no need to go and purchase an expensive device when you can download the app for free on your Smartphone, computer, or a tablet. When I first bought my iPad, it came with iBooks \u2013 an app to similar to Kindle\u2019s. Yet I quickly discovered that many of the books in iBooks were more expensive, so I decided to go ahead and try out the Kindle app. Not only am I more satisfied with the quality of this app, I believe that the app itself rules out any need to purchase a Kindle.\nThere are a lot of apps out there on the market today, and it\u2019s very easy to feel overwhelmed in having to narrow down all the choices. Yet if you find yourself constantly looking for your iPhone, needing new recipes, or debating whether or not to buy a Kindle, try out these three great, underutilized apps.\nSamantha Gray is a freelance writer who specializes in writing about career advice for college students.

        "raw_content": "May 4 & 5, 2019 (Saturday & Sunday), 2 Sessions\nInstructor: Micah Goguen\nWhat a great class to learn a new technique! This two day workshop demonstrates how to build depth and texture to your painting using different substrates. The Instructor will provide items such as collage papers, pastes, inks and other materials to show the student how to build different surfaces for a layered and textured painting. The objective of this workshop is to intuitively build depth and texture using basic color theories and composition. Students will be given a variety of substrates so that they may try a few different texture techniques. Students will have up to 7 different pieces to explore and work with. The student will explore 5 or more texture methods using Golden brand texture pastes including fiber paste, crackle paste, absorbent ground and pumice. Image transfer and basic use of acrylic paint and blending techniques will also be covered. Students of all experiences are encouraged to take this class to learn a new form of painting. There is a supply list provided upon registering for the class. Students are welcome to bring a lunch each day of the class.\nDepth and Texture Workshop-(May 4 & 5, 2019) Registration\nMicah Goguen grew up in Central Georgia and obtained his B.A. in Art from Georgia College & State University in Milledgeville. Micah continued studies in figure drawing and painting at Kennesaw University and lived in the Atlanta area for 7 years producing and showing art at local venues. Residing currently in Macon, Ga., Micah focuses primarily on bringing art to the community and using art as a form of communication for those struggling to under stand and cope with life situations. He is currently obtaining his Masters in Art Therapy.\nStationed primarily at The Perry Art Center in Perry, Ga. and The St. Francis Art Center in Macon, Ga. , Goguen produces work while teaching art to both adults and children. He also volunteers time at the local community center and works with adults in alcohol and substance recovery as well as uprooted and traumatized children. Goguen also teaches a variety of classes at Kudzu Art Zone in Norcross, Ga. Using mural work, art for entertainment and art therapy for healing, Goguen collaborates with school systems, local shops, and non profits to help unify and most importantly \u201cspread a message\u201d.\nMicah\u2019s own artwork conveys his interest in people as he uses oil paints to mostly create expressive portraits. Bold color choices and organic movement signify his style and you can most often expect a large confrontational composition that forces the viewer to take notice and interact. Micah works in a range of media and teaches workshops in Oil and Acrylic Painting, Ceramics, Textiles and Drawing. He is working on several mural projects and also founded a group of artists which hang and display art in privately owned local businesses. The overall vision is to focus and rededicate back to a buy local, shop local mentality that strengthens community through unity and purpose.",

Then I ask them to keep their hands raised if they ride Harley-Davidson bikes. Then I ask the Harley riders if they would ever consider riding another kind of motorcycle. The answer is always an emphatic, almost indignant, \u201cNo way!\u201d Back in the eighties, Harley-Davidson was struggling. They had made some bad decisions and were being hammered by faster, cheaper Japanese bikes. They decided not to compete against the Japanese but, rather, to leverage their company\u2019s own checkered past to build a new kind of bond with their customer. The result was one of the all-time, classic branding turnarounds, one that has gained them a fiercely devoted customer base.

        "raw_content": "GOLDMAN, EMMA. 1869\u20131940.\nVAN VALKENBURGH, WARREN STARR. 1884-1938.\nVAN VALKENBURGH, WARREN STARR. 1884-1938. Archive of correspondence between Goldman, Van Valkenburgh, and other members of the anarchist movement of the early 20th century, as follows:\n50 Autograph Letters Signed (\"Emma,\" \"E.G.,\" \"E\"), approx. 272 pp recto and verso, 4to and 8vo, AND approx.118 Typed Letters Signed (\"Emma\" E.G.\" \"E\" and \"Mrs. Colton\"), approx. 220 pp, 4to and legal folio, various places including London, Toronto and San Tropez, 1916-1932 (with the vast majority dating from the mid- to late 1920s), to Warren Starr Van Valkenburgh, with his retained copies (equally voluminous, if not more so, and many annotated), covering a wide variety of issues relating to the anarchist movement, including publishing, fundraising, and general messaging.\nWITH: Typed Manuscript Signed (\"Emma Goldman\"), 10 pp, 4to, n.p., n.d., titled \"Patience and Poststamps Some Times Have Their Reward,\" annotated throughout, being a report of Goldman's efforts in Canada. AND WITH: carbon copies of Goldman circulars distributed to movement members and some examples of retained copies of Goldman correspondence (handled through Van Valkenburgh); lists of names and addresses of supporters/contributors (including Lady Astor and Paul Robeson); other related correspondence and retained copies and pamphlets, magazines, and newspaper clippings, many relating to the Sacco-Vanzetti Trial.\nProvenance: descended through the family of Warren Starr Van Valkenburgh.\nCORRESPONDENCE FROM FAMED ANARCHIST AND RADICAL FEMINIST EMMA GOLDMAN.\nBorn in Russia to a Jewish family, Emma Goldman emigrated to America in 1885; not long after her arrival, she was stirred to activism by the Chicago Haymarket riot of 1886, embarking on a lifelong career of writing and lecturing about anarchist politics, women's rights and social issues. She was frequently imprisoned for \"inciting to riot\" and for distributing information about birth control. On the left she was lionized as a political maverick and trailblazer; on the right she was demonized for promoting revolution and political murder. In 1901 McKinley assassin Leon Czolgosz claimed Goldman had inspired him to act, and she was arrested and charged with having planned the murder. She was eventually cleared, and refused to condemn Czolgosz, whom she viewed as mentally ill, a position which led to an exile of sorts. Within a few years, however, she returned to writing and lecturing, traveling around the globe to spread her message.\nWarren Starr Van Valkenburgh began his career in the early part of the 20th century as an anarchist writer and lecturer, often publishing under the pseudonym Walter Starrett. He contributed to Goldman's publication Mother Earth as well as the other leading radical journals of the period, The Blast and Revolt. From 1928-1932 he was editor of The Road to Freedom, the leading anarchist journal of the period. The correspondence between the two begins in earnest around 1925, as Goldman writes from Canada, France, and England. Among his many duties on her behalf, Van Valkenburgh submitted Goldman's manuscripts to publishers and negotiated on her behalf, solicited funds from supporters, distributed messages through publications or circulars, and generally acted as a sounding board for current events and writing.\nOn disagreements within the anarchist movement, from May 7, 1926: \"I am sure you must be under the impression that Beckh knows everyone in the Anarchist movement, or that he is an anarchist in the political sense. It must be that or you would not have taken the trouble to write at length about the reception for Rocker, or what Havel did. I confess it made me sick. Not that Beckh would mind about the reception if he knew the life and work of Rocker. If he knew, for instance, that for thirty five years Rocker has lived in abject poverty, has been in prison and concentration camp, has given his all to the movement. And that Milly Rocker worked for years in the sweatshop to help sustain the Jewish anarchist paper. If Beckh would know that he would feel with me that any reception given this wonderful man is a small recompense for what he has given or suffered.\"\nOn the burden of being a public anarchist, from July 12, 1928: \"whatever I may find in 'Boston' about the muck, pettiness and viciousness back of the Sacco-Vanzetti fight will not surprise me in the least. I have waded through such mud before\u2014once in the case of Berkman and in the Czolgocz affair. I understand your bitterness only too well. I haven't forgotten the bitterness that nearly drove me out of the movement entirely. But I have come to realize that we must have strength to rise above this swamp\u2014and reach out towards the pure air of some height\u2014or we become swallowed up by it.\"\nGoldman often comments on her own writing, which comes slower than she would like, and is a perceptive critic of other voices of the period. From May 22, 1928: \"Unlike you I do not think Dreiser's articles half as unfair as most stuff that comes from there. It is true he gloats over the experiment, speaks highly of a lot of things. But he also emphasis[sic] the dark sides, the political despotism. It is more than Roger Baldwin is doing in his book ... After all we must grant him the right of seeing Russia or whatever part he visited in his light, just so we have the feeling that the man is honest enough to point out the evils as well as what he considers good.\"\nIn the later letters Goldman and Van Valkenburgh discuss the rise of Hitler and the Nazi party in Germany with suitable alarm.",

The bonds are expected to require a property tax levy for 30 years. The bonds are estimated to result in an increase in the property taxes for the owner of a new $100,000 home will pay, which will average $126 per year. If this question is approved by the voters, any property tax levied to pay the bonds will be outside of the caps on a taxpayer\u2019s liability for property (ad valorem) taxes establish by the legislators in the 2005 session.\nR6889 Off Highway Vehicle (OHV) Advisory Question\nThis question is advisory only: Do you support the operation of Off Highway Vehicles (OHV) on City Streets pursuant to NRS 490.100?\nFor all the detailed explanations, arguments and additional information, you can visit the City\u2019s web site HERE.

With Wild Honey he took a play penned by Chekhov in the late 1870s and turned it into one of the most-performed versions of the text.\nThe show focuses on the character of Mikhail Vasilyevich (Mikhail Platonov in the original version), whose wife is not the only woman in his life, with three other pretty women all falling for him. He is a schoolmaster who sees himself in a positive light \u2013 with wit, good looks and success in life bringing him unending confidence. But his situation is not always to his liking and the attention of these four women could be his undoing.\nThe show was originally one of Chekhov\u2019s first, though it didn\u2019t emerge until many years after his death. Though it has been performed in its original form over the years, it is Wild Honey that audiences are more familiar with and this will not change with this revival in 2016.\nAnd with Howard Davies directing, audiences can be sure they are in for a compelling experience. The Associate Artist of the Hampstead Theatre has been behind various hits for the National Theatre, the Old Vic and beyond and he remains one of the biggest names in British theatre.\nWild Honey runs at the Hampstead Theatre from Friday 2nd December 2016.\nBooking Until: Saturday, 21st January 2017",

        "raw_content": "The communal aspect of it was really refreshing and enlightening. I made genuine, life-long connections with students and leaders and I learned so much about spiritual community and living a healthy, grace-filled life.\nNathan Merchant\nMy favorite part about Brethren Academy was hands down the community and Friday night when after worship we were all hanging out and one person started singing and before you knew it we all were standing arm in arm, singing and yelling praises to Jesus.\u201d After an incredible two hours of praise, it turned to a healing service where \u201cwe were praying over people who were hurting. I had never felt more awaken by the power of Jesus. The Holy Spirit was flowing through that room and through those 50 people. I cannot wait to go back next year and see my family again.\nElla Heyworth\nI\u2019ve never connected to so many people at once before and it was definitely an amazing experience, from singing our lungs out to crying in each other\u2019s arms, every moment with those people was spectacular.\nSarah Shultz\nBeing a mentor for Brethren Academy this year was such an incredible experience. Having been a student two years before, it was amazing to pass on what I had learned to other students. I was also pleasantly surprised by how much I learned this year, despite not being a \"student.\" The fresh approach to fundamental lessons that are taught each year made it possible for me, as someone who has been a part of Brethren Academy all three years, to still learn new aspects of those fundamental lessons, giving me a deeper understanding.\nLydia Heckert\nFor me Brethren Academy was an eye-opening experience that I wish I could experience a thousand more times. I got to experience the amazing hearts of the people in Ashland while being in a new community. I gained so much wisdom on the Bible and how to be a Christian from our workshop speakers. Overall, after the experience, I would say I grew as a person, a Christian, and would highly recommend Brethren Academy to any young leader looking for guidance.\nI felt a really beneficial aspect of Brethren Academy was the baking activity with Julianna when she talked about vocation and calling. I think that as high school students, finding a \u201ccalling\u201d or a job that you want to do after you graduate can be difficult to figure out and we put so much pressure on what kind of job we want to have rather than how we can bring Gods kingdom to our community. From some of the earliest moments of our childhood people are asking us \u201cwhat do you want to be when you grow up\u201d and for high schoolers it\u2019s difficult. But Julianna really helped me realize that calling isn\u2019t just some far away future thing about what you are doing with the rest of your life, it\u2019s what you can be doing now, bringing God to your community or to a group of people.\nNoah Ludwig\nShe \u201ccould tell students were interested in the topics we discussed and were very open to talking about their own experiences with those topics. Two of my three students were new and I could tell were nervous about being there, but by the end of the week both had commented and said they were excited to come back next year and I could see the spirit moving strongly in all of the students.\"\nOne of the many things that stood out to me from Brethren Academy is when one of our speakers said, 'Have a strong foundation in God, then go and bring others to him.' Something that I have always wanted is for people to see Christ in me. When he said that it helped me realize that's not just gonna happen. I have to work on me and who I am in God. I have to build a strong relationship and foundation in me and with Him before I can expect others to see Him in me. After Brethren Academy I definitely have a new understanding and confidence in my faith that I didn't have before. I met so many amazing people and made lots of new amazing friends and grew closer to some old ones. I can't wait to go back next year!\nIt\u2019s made me feel more Brethren almost. Like, I\u2019ve learned about who they were. I\u2019ve learned about what our values are and how we came to be. It kind of makes me feel like I\u2019m part of a family instead of just a church that I go to on Sundays. And my family has made a difference in the world. And I think it\u2019s really cool to learn about.\nHanna Strickland\nI like the people here. I like being able to talk to people, and I like the sense of community it brings.\nKristina Schay\nOur daughter had such an enriching experience at Brethren Academy from start to finish. She learned tons about the Brethren faith. An absolutely amazing group of leaders, teachers, peers surrounded her, encouraged her, stretched her and loved on her. As parents, we were thankful she was able to have an opportunity that had such an impact in her faith journey.\nMel Plank\nBrethren Academy was my first chance of being a small group leader which taught me a few things: what it is like to be a small group leader, what it is to be an influence on students, but also how to help students defend their faith and how to initiate conversations. I saw friendships being built from different churches around the nation (Florida, Canada, Virginia, to name a few).\nIt was awesome to see the students connect with each other on deep spiritual levels during the \"Jesus-I-see-in-you\" group time. The students took it very seriously and highly encouraged each other. A humbling experience was when the students said that I skipped myself and that they wanted to do it for me too, of which I thought was very humbling and loving.\nI was able to make a few deeper connections with some of the students and even got to witness to a girl about the depths of Christ's love and what He wants of us. You can't ask for a better opportunity than to talk to students about Jesus. That is, after all, what being a Christian is all about! The students had the heart, the attitude, and the love for what was prepared for the week and they took it full force.\nTyler McFarland\nI didn't know what to expect going into Brethren Academy. It was sandwiched between two busy weeks of my summer and I was anticipating to get the job done, help where needed, and continue on my way. Little did I know that God had different plans for the week for both myself and the incredible students that I had the privilege of leading. The week was a breath of fresh air mixed with heart stirring conversation and rapid growth. The group of students were from all across the US (& Cananda, shout out to Kelsey and Aiden!) but came together so quickly in one short week. I couldn't help but survey the room and feel overwhelmed with joy because this is what the body of Christ looks like. I miss those students deeply but I am so encouraged by the work God is doing in and through them, and the ways He is leading them throughout their journeys.\nJulianna Hritz\nYou kind of live in a world where you think it\u2019s just you. My youth group is small. My youth group is maybe insignificant. And then all of a sudden you meet all of these other people who are having almost the same feelings and experiences, but from all around the world.\nBrethren National Office\nTony Van Duyne\nMy hope for my kids, or for any students that go through this program, is that they find out who they are in Christ, they find a way to tie that into what they go into for a living, and they walk away understanding their value in Jesus and that they have a role to play in His kingdom.",

        "title": "CafeSmart Does Caffeine for a Cause - Broadsheet",
        "raw_content": "CafeSmart Does Caffeine for a Cause\nAdam Robinson, director of charity organisation StreetSmart, explains how the smallest of habitual behaviours, like buying a morning coffee, can be harnessed for the greater good.\nDo you feel lucky? If the most difficult decision you face today is whether to opt for soy or skim milk in your daily latte, you probably should. While Adam Robinson, the founder and director of grassroots charity organisation StreetSmart, understands how easy it is to get caught up in one\u2019s everyday, first world quandaries, he also firmly believes it can and should be even easier to make a meaningful difference to the lives of those who need it most. Enter CafeSmart, the annual event that allows coffee drinkers to assist society\u2019s most vulnerable through the habitual act of enjoying their morning cup.\nScheduled for June 7 this year, CafeSmart asks cafes, many of which can receive subsidised beans from supportive suppliers like AllPress, DiBella and 5 Senses, to pledge $1 from every coffee sold on the day. One hundred per cent of funds raised are then distributed to over 400 charities that combat homelessness via specific local projects. Last year, 232 cafes nationwide caffeinated their customers for a cause, collectively raising close to $75,000 in a single day.\nNow in its third year, Robinson developed CafeSmart on the back of the overwhelming success of DineSmart, a project he established in 2003 in which diners at partnered restaurants are given the option of adding a $2 donation to their bill over a six-week pre-Christmas period each year.\n\u201cIn some ways, CafeSmart was borne of the GFC. Restaurants were struggling as people cut back on spending, but coffee culture was really taking hold as it offered a small luxury. I applied the principles of simplicity that worked with DineSmart to respond to a culturally climatic trend,\u201d Robinson explains.\nIt is this marriage of business acumen and a strong moral compass has seen Robinson, a marketing graduate who has always been self-employed, singlehandedly establish an organisation that has raised a staggering $2,461,000 in only a decade. A self-proclaimed \u201carmchair activist\u201d for much of his life, the UK expatriate was initially propelled to establish StreetSmart after reading a particularly powerful article in The Big Issue that dismantled the nation\u2019s most widely held prejudices about homelessness.\n\u201cI was struck by the fact that where many people presume, often subconsciously, that homelessness is somehow caused by careless decision making, in the overwhelming majority of cases it\u2019s the end result of a complex series of issues, illnesses, accidents and abuses suffered by the affected individual. Like most of us I have made some questionable decisions in my life, some of which saw me retreat to the family home to consolidate while I slept on the couch. I was prompted to ask, \u2018What do people who aren\u2019t lucky enough to have that safety net do?\u2019\u201d\nRobinson\u2019s quest to answer that question led him to confront a number of uncomfortable and often ignored societal inefficiencies in the way causal issues such as domestic violence, mental health, familial breakdown and a lack of affordable housing are widely understood and dealt with. Rather than feel disempowered by the sheer scale of such problems, Robinson set about creating small channels through which the community can begin to address these colossal injustices. By adopting a philosophy that privileges locality (donations are fed back into projects as close to where they are raised as possible) and channelling 100 per cent of profits straight to these local charities, StreetSmart operates with complete transparency and provides donors with an important sense of personal involvement.\n\u201cWhen I explain the kind of problems StreetSmart deals with, people are inherently compelled to help.

Eijkelkamp says she didn\u2019t have to think twice. \u201cAn MBA study is after all great for one\u2019s career,\u201d she explained, adding that she opted for an Action Learning MBA at Business School Netherlands (BSN). \u201cIt\u2019s a very practical study. Sure, you can learn a lot from reading books, but you could do that at home, too. An Action Learning MBA is all about using your theoretical knowledge in real-life scenarios and enabling you to explore and analyse problems together, as a team, and develop tangible solutions.\u201d\nStarting a B&B in Zimbabwe\nBeing a small-scale institution with lots of space for personal attention was one of the main reasons Eijkelkamp opted for BSN. \u201cAfter investigating MBA programmes offered by universities, I chose BSN. Here, you are not one of many students. BSN staff and students really know each other.\u201d Besides her studies in general, Eijkelkamp has fond memories of her subset. The meetings they had were invaluable, she says. \u201cWe had a lot of fun. One highlight in particularly revolved around setting up a Bed & Breakfast in Zimbabwe. This B&B is doing very well.\u201d Her Viva Voce was another moment she will never forget. \u201cI loved the ceremonial aspect of it,\u201d Eijkelkamp says, noting that her dissertation was awarded an 8.2, turning her into a Cum Laude graduate. \u201cI didn\u2019t expect it, but I had hoped for it. Graduating Cum Laude truly was the cherry on top!\u201d\nIf you enjoy something you can do anything\nWhilst she is looking back at the past three years back with a smile, Eijkelkamp is glad she is done. \u201cI never doubted about my studies, but doing an MBA combined with a demanding job and having young children required a lot of juggling. However, if you truly enjoy something and if you have a nice subset, I believe you can do anything. \u201dSo what does she look forward to the most now that she has her degree? \u201cI\u2019m mostly looking forward to the new opportunities that will come on my path. My degree will open the door for interesting jobs. With my MBA, the world is my oyster.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Proof of Thorgan Hazard's happiness at Borussia M\u00f6nchengladbach came last month when the 22-year-old penned a long-term deal at the Borussia Park...\nHazard: 'We're third and want to stay there'\nM\u00f6nchengladbach - Having signed a long-term deal at Borussia M\u00f6nchengladbach shortly before forming part of the the side which became the first to defeat FC Bayern M\u00fcnchen at the Allianz Arena this season, life is good for Thorgan Hazard, who turned 22 on Sunday.\nIndeed, the Belgian was in chatty mood when bundesliga.com caught up with him to discuss that win in Munich, his side's burgeoning UEFA Champions League dreams and Lucien Favre's tactical strengths...\nbundesliga.com: Thorgan Hazard, how does a win away to FC Bayern feel?\nThorgan Hazard: It\u2019s an amazing feeling. There aren\u2019t many teams who can pick up points at the Allianz Arena. Our win was completely deserved, as well. Bayern didn\u2019t have many chances and we defended very well. We took our opportunities clinically. Winning in Munich is an outstanding result.\nbundesliga.com: With the three points, Gladbach have also taken a major step towards qualifying for the Champions League\u2026\nHazard: In the table, we currently have a nice lead over FC Schalke 04 and FC Augsburg, but there are eight games left and our run-in is tough. Saying that, we\u2019re playing VfL Wolfsburg, Bayer 04 Leverkusen and Borussia Dortmund at Borussia Park, so it\u2019s in our own hands. We\u2019re playing with a lot of confidence at the moment, and we want to keep it up in order to end the season successfully. We\u2019ll do everything to defend third place right up until Matchday 34.\nbundesliga.com: Eight months after joining Gladbach, how would you assess your current situation on a personal level?\nHazard: I certainly needed a little bit of time to get used to things because it was all so new to me, be it the style of play in the Bundesliga, the tactics used by the coach or the understanding with my team-mates. Step by step though, I found my place in the team and now I\u2019m really happy. I\u2019m also noticing that I\u2019m getting more and more playing time. I\u2019m very pleased.\nbundesliga.com: What do you like most about Borussia M\u00f6nchengladbach?\nHazard: It\u2019s an amazing club. Clearly, we\u2019re having a fantastic season but at the start of the campaign, I would never have thought that we would be so impressive and in third place after 26 games. For my career, it\u2019s the perfect place to take the next step. Here, I have everything to develop myself: the right atmosphere, the trust of the coach, an understanding with my team-mates. Also, the fans are absolutely unbelievable. I think most recently in Munich there were about 8,000, which is brilliant. Our fans have supported us, and, I\u2019m assuming that they\u2019re happy with our results. I hope we keep making them happy for a long time to come.\nbundesliga.com: The proof of how happy you are at Gladbach came last month when you signed a five-year contract\u2026\nHazard: Absolutely. I really wanted to sign on a long-term basis to bring myself and my family some stability. I always planned to spend several years at one club and now that\u2019s the case at Borussia. I want to keep working hard in order to continue developing.\nbundesliga.com: Another reason for your happiness seems to be Lucien Favre. What makes him such a good coach?\nHazard: Lucien Favre is the type of person who never lets up. In every training session, he goes right into the smallest detail. He\u2019s a perfectionist and tactically he\u2019s unbelievable. We don\u2019t just play good football, but we also concede very few goals. For him, first and foremost, it\u2019s all about defending well and giving the opponent no space. It\u2019s going really well at the moment and in just eight months I\u2019ve learned a scary amount.\nbundesliga.com: You\u2019re away from home again after the international break. What are you aiming to take from the trip to TSG 1899 Hoffenheim?\nHazard: We\u2019re travelling to Sinsheim to win. We know, however, that it\u2019ll be anything but easy. Hoffenheim are having a good season and rarely lose in front of their own fans, but we\u2019re third and we want to stay third. From that point of view, we should really win.\nThorgan Hazard was speaking to Alexis Menuge.",

Carrick On July 31, 2018\nThroughout the daily tasks, recruiting calls, market research projects, and weekly intern classes, it\u2019s been quite the busy summer for me and my fellow 19 interns involved with C&A\u2019s Skills for Success summer internship program. We have attended classes geared toward giving efficient feedback, acting with professionalism in the workplace, writing blog posts, and exploring our top 5 Gallup CliftonStrengths. In addition to capitalizing upon these soft skills, we have learned about C&A as a company and the staffing industry as a whole.\nMost recently on June 21st, we were also given the opportunity to volunteer during the 2018 United Way of the Midlands Day of Action. During this experience, we spent the afternoon at Franklin Elementary School reading to several groups of kindergarten students. Each of us was paired with a group of 2-3 kindergarteners and helped them each read a book and begin a coloring worksheet to keep track of all the books they plan to read this summer.\nAll of the students received a bag stocked with posters, brochures for summer activities, and multiple books, as well. One of the books was titled, Kindness is Cooler, Mrs. Ruler, which highlights the importance of doing good deeds for friends, families, and teachers. Personally, I enjoyed the book as much as the kindergartners! Overall, the day was a success, as we were able to dedicate an afternoon reading to these students and reinforcing the value of reading.\nEach day brings with it new assignments and responsibilities, my time as an intern at C&A has reinforced the value of giving back to the community. By volunteering at Franklin Elementary School, I was reminded of the power of how simple activities, such as reading to a child for two hours, can make a difference in the lives of others.\nKelsey Rodis is a sales and recruiting intern with Aureus Medical in the Skilled Nursing division.

        "raw_content": "Orange County Mental Health Attorney\nMental Health Defense Law Firm\nThroughout Southern California, the needs of mental health patients that are charged with criminal accusations are going unmet, sometimes even unrecognized. This is because the criminal defense attorneys out there are often unfamiliar with crucial components of insanity such as the history of the M'Naghten Rule and how it applies to cases of NGI and mental health criminal offenses. However, the lack of legal knowledge surrounding such cases is being rectified by the team of defense lawyers at Lessem & Newstat, LLP. For more than 50 years, the lawyers at the firm have worked to represent a wide range of criminal matters which defendants may be accused of in the state of California. Our legal services extend to persons seeking standard criminal defense representation, as well as individuals in need of more unique services such as defense in the mental health courts or representation in a sanity hearing.\nFor anyone accused of a crime, the host of consequences that could possibly accompany a formal conviction of guilt stand to dramatically alter the defendant's lifestyle. This is especially true when an accusation of a sexually violent predator charge is made on behalf of an individual who may be in need of a Murphy Conservatorship or a stay in the treatment vs. jail. Unfortunately, persons in need of treatment beyond that which is offered in the prison system are sometimes wrongly jailed and punished in a way that is detrimental to their already impaired mental health. Therefore, it is vital to the wellbeing of any unstable person to seek legal representation from an Orange County mental health lawyer as soon as possible after an arrest is made.\nOrange County Lawyer for Mental Health Defense Cases\nThe rights of the mentally disabled should not be compromised under any circumstance, particularly that of a criminal accusation and potential conviction. Unfortunately, this is too often the case for mentally ill individuals that may not have been able to discern the totality of their actions as they were being committed. In these situations, a criminal offense could be committed without a person's ability to recognize the potential effect of their actions. A combined 50+ years of courtroom experience can be put to work on behalf of mental health defendants who choose to work with our firm. Our lawyers have been in the business of criminal defense long enough to know just what it takes to successfully bring a case before the jury and obtain dismissals or not guilty verdicts.. In fact, we have done so for hundreds of our clients. It is always our intention to have cases dismissed or reduced, particularly those that involve patients suffering from impaired mental health. We know the devastation that can come from a wrongful conviction or too harsh sentence, and we are willing to do everything in our power to make sure that this does not happen for our clients.\nResource Links for Orange County\nInformation about Orange County, CA\nTo learn more about how our team can help in the representation and defense of your case, contact an Orange County mental health attorney today.",

As explained by Mike Johnson, a member of the competition committee, \u201cthe subject image entered into the competition may be of any scale and may also include buildings, recognizable details of buildings or structures, architecturally designed memorials, monuments, landscapes and bridges, architecturally designed industrial structures/systems, architecturally inspired cultural heritage/historic assets/artifacts, inspiring construction site(s) with noteworthy tourism points of interest.\u201d\nDarrel Babuk, another member of the competition, committee noted that \u201cthis competition is very unique because it provides an opportunity for everyone \u2013 irrespective of where they live \u2013 to use the ubiquitous medium of photography to promote Alberta\u2019s architecture and high-quality built environment to the world. This is truly unique.\u201d\nWinners of the photo competition will be announced in Edmonton during the spring of 2014 and a presentation gala is planned for the summer of 2014 where memorabilia, prize money and certificates will be presented to winning entrants. Additionally, the RAIC plans to publish the jury-selected winning entries as a book of postcards and to curate a travelling exhibition in various locations locally and internationally. The competition has been made possible by sponsors such as West Canadian, Al-Terra, Shanahan\u2019s, Bold Design, KFR Engineering, and publicity support from MADE and Canadian Architect.\nThe RAIC is Canada\u2019s largest and oldest voluntary national architectural association established in 1907 as the voice for architecture and its practice in Canada. With over 4,600 members, the RAIC works to celebrate the richness and diversity of architecture in Canada and supports excellence and innovation in place-making through initiatives such as this.\nFor more information on the RAIC\u2019s first annual architectural photo competition, please visit www.raic.org/alberta or e-mail [email protected].\nDetroit Design Festival seeks local, national and international designers for public design installation competition",

        "title": "Case Study: Bowker \"Transforming Transport\" in partnership with Carrylift",
        "raw_content": "The Bowker Group is an international transport company with a long and distinguished history.\nTracing its roots back to 1919, it was there when the road transport industry first began. The first overnight shipper of fruit between Liverpool Docks and Covenant Garden, and one of the first to operate between the UK, Holland and Belgium. Today it operates over 150 vehicles and has over 40,000m\u2019 of warehousing.\nProviding a comprehensive range of dedicated and shaped-user warehousing services, the business is based in Preston, Blackburn and Hull. Bowker operate one of the region\u2019s largest and most modern fleets comprising of 44t tractors, 26t and 18t rigid vehicles which are equipped with 1500kg rated tail lifts, reversing cameras and proximity sensors.\nBalancing space availability with a high degree of site utilisation, the company, according to warehouse manager, Stuart Greenwood, is potentially \u2018one call away\u2019 from a customer requirement for 100k square feet. \u201cWe\u2019re constantly receiving quotes and getting business in'\u201d adds Stuart. \u201cThe need for us to stay operationally ready is always there.\u201d As if to prove the point, Stuart describes a recent situation. \u201cWe had an enquiry on a Wednesday to move 200 tonnes of product for a customer the next morning at 7am. A call to Carrylift resulted in a hire truck, in and working, by 8.30am on Thursday.\u201d\nCarrylift knows well that respect for Bowker\u2019s business makes it an influential partner. A Carrylift source said \u201cWe value all our customers greatly, but we are particularly proud of the work we\u2019ve done with Stuart and the team. They understand their business well and are willing to invest in their expanding operation whilst keeping a keen eye on the costs. We feel it makes our products and services an ideal choice.\u201d\nThe relationship with Carrylift began in 2005 when articulating forklift trucks were first brought in. The trucks\u2019 ability to articulate, allows them to operate in a smaller aisle width, which in turn leads to greater storage density. It\u2019s a move that proved transformational (\u201cWe\u2019ve never been without them,\u201d adds Stuart), as the racking set up was changed to take advantage of the trucks\u2019 capabilities and make the most of the available space.\nFrom then on, the opportunity for Carrylift to impress with their service back up and attention to detail paved the way for a new conversation on the rest of the forklift fleet. \u201cWe are not the sort of company to mix and match suppliers,\u201d adds Stuart. \u201cAll our lorries are Volvos, and we have to justify to our management team and ourselves if we want to make significant changes like this.\u201d Perhaps that long history engenders a more cautious approach, but it certainly doesn\u2019t prompt sentimentality.\nWhen the time arrived to replace the now ageing counterbalance fleet, the gauges on their onsite fuel bunkers allowed a real world diesel consumption test to be carried out.\nTwo new trucks were brought in for three months and an experiment began, the results of which even surprised Stuart. \u201cI\u2019ve been here for over 20 years, beginning as a forklift operator, so we like to believe we know what to look for. I like to involve the operators and get a feel for the comfort and convenience issues, it\u2019s the driver who is sat on it that has to be happy with it. But with fuel prices spiralling upwards, it made sense to do a like-for-like test. So every time we filled up, we recorded the hours and feel use.\u201d\nThe TCM used around three quarters (actually 77%) of the fuel the other used, enough to sway the purchase decision and save anywhere between \u00a39 to \u00a316 (depending on the fluctuating diesel costs) in fuel per shift on a four truck application.\n\u201cWe operate in a large concrete yard, there\u2019s a lot of travelling and an on-site rail terminal. Going over the rail lines takes its toll on the trucks. Our experience is there are some trucks that just aren\u2019t cut out for this type of application, but the TCMs stand up well and we feel more than satisfied with having implemented the changes.\u201d It helped that the TCM brand was not completely unfamiliar to Bowkers, having had one in the group from 1988 that\u2019s still operational today. The focus on durability was also key, for as well as fuel consumption, reliability is also vital. For customer business, it\u2019s essential to keep moving, but much of the work is also \u2018container stuffing\u2019 as part of the company\u2019s own transport operation.\nThis means that later in the day when most of the fleet comes back, a four hour window is allowed for overnight pallet exchange work (Bowker is a member of both Pall-Ex and Hazchem networks). Up to a dozen trailers each night exit Preston alone, which provides another time constraint earlier in the day as orders need to be picked and ready to be out the door by 5pm.\n\u201cA delay can hold up the whole operation,\u201d says Stuart, \u201cif our vehicles are waiting to collect it has a knock-on effect. If we are holding up our trucks because of problems with the forklifts, it would cause a real headache. Reliability is a massive issue.\u201d\nSafety too also score highly. Blue warning spotlights help alert pedestrians to oncoming trucks whilst handling lots of chemicals means the Pyroban gas checkers and stainless steel clad forks are an essential add-on. Others, such as a stretch wrap holder on the Aisle-Masters, provide a simple but effective fix and, as Stuart happily puts it, \u2018cheered up the operators no end.\u2019\n\u201cYou always get a mixed response when you make changes,\u201d concludes Stuart. \u201cMy theory is if half the operators are in favour at the time, the remainder will get there. Having. made the change to TCM and Carrylift, we\u2019re already able to say it\u2019s been a success. It\u2019s down to the support we get from the Carrylift Team and thanks to the driver acceptance and track record to date, we know we are on to a winner.\u201d\nCarrylift, Authorised TCM Distributor\nProud Member of the CorpAcq Group of Companies",

        "title": "An interview with Steward Pickett | Cary Institute of Ecosystem Studies",
        "raw_content": "Lori M. Quillen\nSteward Pickett\u2019s roots are in plant ecology. From abandoned agricultural fields in New Jersey to the South African savannah, his work explores vegetation dynamics. Since 1997, his primary field site has been a city. As director of the Baltimore Ecosystem Study, he leads an ambitious, multi-partner effort looking at how urban areas function as ecosystems.\nWhat is urban ecology?\nIt\u2019s like ecology, except that it includes people, the resources they use and dispose of, and the things they build. The interplay between the built and natural components makes it exciting. As a researcher, there is joy in discovering what makes the urban environment tick; historically speaking, it\u2019s been neglected by ecologists. Also, urban ecology has a role to play in improving human well being.\nWhat is a Long-Term Ecological Research (LTER) program?\nTwenty-six LTERs are funded by the National Science Foundation, which recognized that to understand ecosystems, it\u2019s essential to have long running studies, on the order of 50 years or more. The Baltimore Ecosystem Study is one of two LTERs in an urban area.\nThere are 6,000 acres of parkland; these big green spaces are perfect monitoring sites. Also, Baltimore is on a clearly defined watershed\u2014what happens there impacts streams, rivers, drinking water, and the Chesapeake Bay. The city\u2019s vitality was also attractive. There is government and community engagement about the environment, and the intellectual capital needed for a venture that includes social scientists, geographers, designers, lawyers, and historians, among others.\nWhat are three things that everyone should know about urban ecosystems?\nFirst, they contain four key components: 1) the physical environment, including soil, air, and water; 2) non-human life, ranging from microbes to birds; 3) people, their institutions, and conventions; and 4) the built environment, such as roads and buildings.\nSecond, processes we associate with natural areas go on in cities. Plants grow, organic matter decomposes, and water transports nutrients and contaminants. Streams harbor invertebrates and fish, air carries particles and gasses, some of which affect human health, and animal diseases are spread to humans.\nLastly, urban ecology can help reveal and remedy unintended consequences of management decisions, human values, and economic constraints. Simply put, our insights can improve the lives of urban dwellers and the environments affected by urban waste streams.\nAs President of the Ecological Society of America (ESA), what is your goal?\nI feel a responsibility to promote research, the next generation of ecologists, and connections with the larger world. I\u2019m excited about Earth Stewardship, an initiative started by former ESA presidents Mary Power and Terry Chapin. It calls on ecologists to improve the knowledge available for caring for Earth\u2019s ecosystems, and collaborate with other specialists to communicate and apply that knowledge.\nWhat would be different about cities if they embraced ecology?\nThey could improve their capacity to contribute to sustainability. Given that more than half of humanity lives in urban areas, cities must be a part of the solution to the pollution and resource depletion problems facing our planet. Cities have efficiencies and creative capacities that should be able to help in this goal.\nWhat is one thing everyone can do?\nRemember that the ecosystem sustains you, even if you live in a city. And our actions, for better or worse, are felt downstream and downwind. Be a voice for efficiency\u2014recycle, support public transportation, let decision makers know that ecosystem concepts have a place in development.",

        "raw_content": "KLAAS VAN KRUISTUM // TELEVISION PRESENTER\nKlaas van Kruistum was primarily well-known among young people for presenting Zapplive, but it was his participation in the programme Wie is de Mol? that really turned him into a household name. That was exactly his intention. His biggest dream is to present a prime-time programme on television. \u201cThe possibilities are there. It takes time and a bit of luck, but it will always be my big dream. I'm not there yet, but I'm well on my way.\u201d\nKlaas is great at doing live television. His timing is good and he excels at improvising. This is an important combination. He has now completed around 100 hours of live television and is really getting the hang of it. He is currently presenting Zapplive, which he loves doing. Klaas would like to do an adult version of this programme in the future. He\u2019s a hard worker and isn\u2019t afraid of takings risks:\"I make calculated assessments, but at the end of the day I follow my heart. I don't think about the risks, I just go for it wholeheartedly. Working hard is just the beginning, then I see where it takes me. You will get me at my best when I can have fun while doing something serious. I need both aspects to get the very best out of myself.\"\n\u201cI'm very ambivalent when it comes to vanity.\u201d\nKlaas likes being in the picture and looking at his finest. \u201cWhen I\u2019m shooting a programme, I always take a toiletry bag with me and do my hair just before we start.\u201d He has a preference for casual clothing and likes colours and prints. When he\u2019s on holiday, it\u2019s not important to him at all; doesn\u2019t shave and he can walk around in the same clothes for a week.\nIf we are talking about setting the bar high, thinking in terms of opportunities and showing courage, then we are talking about Klaas. His friendly and proactive personality makes him popular with everyone, and that in turn no doubt opens many a door.\n\u201cI don\u2019t think about the risks,\nI just go for it wholeheartedly.\u201d\nRequest url: www.castiron-clothing.com/prepare-for-glory_jfk_klaas_van_kruistum Request parameters: array(0) { } IP (Remote address): ::ffff:127.0.0.1 IP (Cloudflare restore): 54.197.24.206 User agent: CCBot/2.0 (https://commoncrawl.org/faq/)",

        "title": "Needle Drop: The Best Pop Songs In Comic Book Movies | CBR",
        "raw_content": "Needle Drop: The Best Pop Songs In Comic Book Movies\nComic book adaptations have long been bringing audiences some of the most iconic orchestral scores in movie history. John Williams\u2019 theme for the 1978 \u201cSuperman\u201d remains the one to beat, but then there\u2019s Joe Harnell\u2019s \u201cLonely Man Theme\u201d piano ballad which has followed \u201cThe Incredible Hulk\u201d from the small to big screen, or Danny Elfman\u2019s brooding work on the 1989 \u201cBatman.\u201d Of course, it\u2019s not just your usual, original theatrical scores which have played under some of the most thrilling moments of superhero cinema.\nRELATED: Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol. 2: 15 Songs We Want To Hear\nBeginning with that Tim Burton \u201cBatman\u201d movie, which yielded not only an album\u2019s worth of Elfman music but also an entire Prince record, pop music has played an integral part in comic book movies. Needle drops of existing hits -- from retro guilty pleasure throwbacks to up-to-the-minute chart-toppers -- can provide as much pathos, bathos or theater seat strutting as the next orchestra. Here are the 15 best uses of pop music in comic book movies!\n15 THE IMMIGRANT SONG (THOR: RAGNAROK)\nIt\u2019s frankly amazing that it took three \u201cThor\u201d films for Led Zeppelin to make an appearance in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Robert Plant\u2019s lyrics regularly referenced Norse mythology; in fact, the most infamous biography about the '70s rock legends is called \u201cHammer of the Gods,\u201d after one of those lyrics. It\u2019s such an obvious fit! Yet it\u2019s only with the first teaser for \u201cThor: Ragnarok\u201d that some Asgardian action was scored with the Viking howl of Led Zeppelin\u2019s \u201cImmigrant Song.\u201d\nObviously, it\u2019s perfect. Watching Cate Blanchett\u2019s Hela rain destruction down upon the Odinson's Asgardian home while Plant screeches about destruction and pillaging couldn\u2019t work better. \u201cImmigrant Song\u201d has appeared on film a couple of times before -- a singalong lead by Jack Black in \u201cSchool of Rock,\u201d a brilliantly scary cover by Karen O and Trent Reznor for the opening titles of \u201cThe Girl With The Dragon Tattoo\u201d -- but none have worked as well as its \u201cRagnarok\u201d appearance.\n14 PEOPLE GET UP AND DRIVE YOUR FUNKY SOUL (SPIDER-MAN 3)\nJames Brown truly was the hardest-working man in show business. Unwilling or perhaps unable to simply rest on his laurels, he peaked in the '60s with the truly classic run of singles \u201cPapa's Got a Brand New Bag,\u201d \u201cI Got You (I Feel Good)\u201d and \u201cIt's a Man's Man's Man's World\u201d yet continued to tour and record new material endlessly. It's to the credit of \u201cSpider-Man 3\u201d music supervisor Darian Pollard for digging deeper into Godfather of Soul's catalogue for one of the most-maligned scenes in a movie that isn't short of maligned scenes.\nDirector Sam Raimi has always been a fan of broad comedy, sneaking slapstick nods to the \u201cThree Stooges\u201d into even his bloody, brutal \u201cEvil Dead\u201d films. For some, he went too far with the comedy in the overstuffed third \u201cSpider-Man\u201d movie, and they're mostly correct. One of the few moments that does work in that horrendously flawed film is the symbiote-infected Peter Parker strutting down a New York street decked out like an emo Tony Manero, set to Brown's 1988 compilation album \u201cMotherlode.\u201d\n13 BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY (SUICIDE SQUAD)\n\u201cSuicide Squad\u201d is another comic book movie which received a fair amount of flack for any number of reasons, not least of all its obvious needle drop soundtrack. As the newly-formed group are sent out on their first mission -- something of an army, if you will -- it\u2019s to \u201cSeven Nation Army\u201d by The White Stripes. These bad guys sure are freaky, huh? If that didn\u2019t come through loud and clear, then Rick James\u2019 \u201cSuperfreak\u201d scoring the whole introductory sequence of the cast will certainly get you there.\nDavid Ayer\u2019s introduction to the DCEU was supposed to be big, bombastic and over-the-top, however. Some of the soundtrack choices are almost insultingly obvious, but others are just inspired in their unashamed lunacy. Case in point: Queen\u2019s \u201cBohemian Rhapsody,\u201d which set the tone in those hype-building trailers in the run up to \u201cSuicide Squad's\u201d release, and was used brilliantly in the Joker jailbreak scene, which cut between the ensemble in their cells in time to the operatic rock song.\n12 ESCAPE - THE PI\u00d1A COLADA SONG (WANTED)\nOne hit wonder Rupert Holmes's easy listening earworm is based entirely around a punchline. It's a joke in song form, with its narrator listing the reasons he wants to leave his wife through means of a personal ad... only to find himself meeting up with that very same wife. It's mainly used as a joke, too, as it is in \u201cGuardians of the Galaxy,\u201d as part of an '80s-centric mixtape made by Star-Lord's mom. A few years before that, though, \u201cThe Pi\u00f1a Colada Song\u201d had an airing in Timur Bekmambetov\u2019s \u201cWanted.\u201d\nThe adaptation of Mark Millar and J. G. Jones\u2019s comic sheds a fair amount of its superhero trappings, but makes up for it with some bravura action scenes involving the much-mocked but pretty-cool concept of \u201cbullet bending.\u201d The first showcase of the dubious art comes during a car chase involving James McAvoy\u2019s milquetoast office worker Wesley and Angelina Jolie\u2019s master assassin Fox, which ends with their vehicle almost totally falling apart. The punchline, after the bullet-ridden action sequence that preceded it? Fox calming them down by playing the song on the car stereo.\n11 SHOOP (DEADPOOL)\n\u201cShoop\u201d is maybe the third most popular Salt-n-Pepa song, behind \u201cLet\u2019s Talk About Sex\u201d and \u201cPush It.\u201d Being the third most popular song by an '80s hip-hop trio makes it pretty obscure. And yet, it was a key part of that leaked test footage from Ryan Reynolds and Tim Miller's pitch for a \u201cDeadpool\u201d film, and made it into the finished movie. Turns out the strangest part of the whole thing wasn't an attempt to break the PG-13 barrier of modern superhero cinema, or resurrecting a bad character from \u201cX-Men Origins: Wolverine.\u201d It was the soundtrack.\nAs with almost everything in \u201cDeadpool,\u201d it's the subversive juxtaposition of the bubbly sweet with the horribly bloody which makes the song choice work. Pairing the nostalgic '90s rap beats with the Merc With a Mouth\u2019s bloody, balletic assassination of a string of bad guys absolutely should not work, and yet it somehow does. The track was carried over to the eventual \u201cDeadpool\u201d feature film, greenlit off the back of the leaked test\u2019s online success, and repeated during the end credits.\n10 PROMISED LAND (MEN IN BLACK)\nOne of the running jokes throughout the \u201cMen In Black\u201d movies, adapted from the Malibu Comics series of the same name, is the reveal of various eccentric celebrities as leading secret double lives. In the second film, King of Pop Michael Jackson is shown to be working for the organization. In the third, Andy Warhol turns out to be an MiB agent in disguise struggling to come up with more conceptual art (hence scrabbling for subjects like a painting of a Campbell's Soup Can.)\nIt all started in the first film, when wizened Agent K, played by Tommy Lee Jones, finally allows Will Smith\u2019s green Agent J to at last press the \u201clittle red button\u201d on his car\u2019s gear stick. In pursuit of the movie\u2019s alien antagonist and faced with a tunnel full of traffic, the car is transformed to travel at superspeed and defy gravity, allowing them to drive on the tunnel\u2019s ceiling, upside down. K cranks Elvis\u2019s \u201cPromised Land\u201d and informs the incredulous J that Presley, no stranger to conspiracy theories over his demise, isn\u2019t dead, he \u201cjust went home.\u201d\n9 UNDER MY THUMB (SCOTT PILGRIM VS. THE WORLD)\nEdgar Wright's movies have uniformly great, pop-based soundtracks, and his underrated, endlessly inventive adaptation of Bryan Lee O\u2019Malley\u2019s \u201cScott Pilgrim\u201d series of graphic novels is no exception. It may even have the best soundtrack of any comic book movie. It at least has the most soundtracks of any comic book movie, with separate releases for regular Radiohead producer Nigel Godrich\u2019s original score and the tracks recorded for the fictional bands featured in the film, written by the likes of Beck and Metric.\nThe choicest of the pop picks in \u201cScott Pilgrim vs. The World\u201d is the extremely, almost hilariously literal use of \u201cUnder My Thumb\u201d by The Rolling Stones, for a scene where Mary Elizabeth Winstead's Ramona is spirited away by Jason Schwazrtman's evil ex Gideon... because he's controlling her mind! He has her under his thumb, just like the song says! In the heightened video game-inspired reality of the movie, the song's obvious inclusion is just silly enough to work as both punchline and heavy emotional gut punch.\n8 ANOTHER ONE BITES THE DUST (IRON MAN 2)\nThe \u201cIron Man\u201d soundtracks are uniformly great, echoing the heavy metal, swanky lifestyle of its titular lead. That is to say, it features a lot of slick rock music. Things got decidedly more pop in the sequel, when Tony Stark suffers a spectacular fall off the wagon (the franchise never got around to a straight adaptation of the classic comic storyline \u201cDemon in a Bottle,\u201d but it came close here) and does drunken battle with BFF Rhodey during a house party.\nAs an inebriated Iron Man and a furious War Machine utterly decimate Stark\u2019s multi-million dollar bachelor pad, much of the soundtrack is consequently made up of smashing glass, firing rockets and collapsing concrete, with the Tony\u2019s DJ, who is commanded to simultaneously drop fat beats as he beats up his friend. He obliges, with an appropriate/ironic megamix of Queen\u2019s \u201cAnother One Bites The Dust,\u201d Rob Base and DJ E-Z Rock\u2019s \u201cIt Takes Two\u201d and Daft Punk\u2019s \u201cRobot Rock.\u201d Play it at your next party, whether you own a suit of robot armor or not.\n7 SWEET DREAMS (ARE MADE OF THIS) (X-MEN: APOCALYPSE)\nEvan Peters is two-for-two for scene-stealing moments in \u201cX-Men\u201d movies. Since Fox hit reset on the whole franchise and catapulted it back to become a period piece, Peters has made two appearances at the supersonic speedster Quicksilver. In \u201cDays of Future Past,\u201d he helped out with a jailbreak, where time appeared to slow as he rocketed around the room, dodging bullets and taking down guards, all with \u201cTime in a Bottle\u201d by Jim Croce playing on his Walkman.\nThe follow-up, \u201cApocalypse,\u201d moved the action to the \u201880s, where everything was bigger, brasher. Fittingly, the repeat of his save-the-day speedrunning is on a grander scale: the Xavier School for Gifted Youngsters is under attack, and he\u2019s got a limited time to rescue all of its students. This time, he slips a more era-appropriate cassette in- the synth-lead pulsing pop of \u201cSweet Dreams,\" Annie Lennox\u2019s otherworldly and vaguely menacing singing voice slowly building the tension of another pitch-perfect superhero action scene.\n6 CONFUSION (BLADE)\nIt\u2019s hard to separate New Order from the Manchester music scene they came up in, where their legendary record label factory was based, and which most of the band were born and raised. Remixed New Order, meanwhile, is impossible to separate from Wesley Snipes in a leather trenchcoat slicing up vampires who are showering in blood from the opening action scene of \u201cBlade.\u201d Funny how a little tweak like that can change so much.\nThe Pump Panel remix of their single \u201cConfusion\u201d changes the song so much that any elements from the original track are almost unrecognizable, warped into a repetitive wall of thumping noise. It\u2019s great! And it makes the instrumental remix absolutely perfect for the barnstorming introduction to \u201cBlade,\u201d the drums in sync with the strobe lighting which helped make that scene one of the most iconic action sequences in comic movie history.\n5 CAN'T SMILE WITHOUT YOU (HELLBOY II: THE GOLDEN ARMY)\nGuillermo del Toro is not a man afraid of cheese. His \u201cPacific Rim\u201d brings a warm, somewhat corny \u201ceverybody work together!\u201d message along with its mechs-vs-monsters mayhem, some fairytale magic among the nightmares and fascistic violence of \u201cPan\u2019s Labyrinth,\u201d and was recently behind the Netflix kids series \u201cTrollhunters.\u201d Even in the darkest of places -- the places where most of his films dwell -- there are still patches of light to be found.\nYou could say that\u2019s the whole message of his two \u201cHellboy\u201d movies: even those who look like monsters are still, at their core, people like you. In the second of the comic book adaptations, \u201cThe Golden Army,\u201d that message is encapsulated in a single, unexpected, joyful scene. Hellboy and best pal/fishman Abe Sapien are nursing unrequited crushes. Despite their grotesque appearances, Hellboy does what any forlorn man does in that situation: gets drunk and croons Barry Manilow\u2019s \u201cCan\u2019t Smile With You,\u201d swaying gently, arm around his buddy, commiserating.\n4 BLUE (IRON MAN 3)\nTony Stark is one of the coolest superhero alter egos to appear on our cinema screens thus far. He dresses well. He has fancy toys. He has impeccably styled facial hair. His patter is charming and Joss Whedon-quippy. He\u2019s played by Robert Downey Jr. and his patented Iron Man armor has all the sleek curves and lines of a sportscar, with add-ons much more impressive than satellite radio or rack-and-pinion steering. The soundtracks of the \u201cIron Man\u201d films, therefore, are mostly as cool as the man himself.\nBlack Sabbath\u2019s titular heavy metal freak out appeared in the first movie, and AC/DC provided almost the entire score for the sequel. So it's no surprise that everyone was taken aback when \u201cIron Man 3\u201d opened with the \u201890s Euro-trance cheese of Eiffel 65\u2019s \u201cBlue.\u201d It was a canny choice: it immediately indicated that the first scene of the film was a flashback (to a time when that song was popular) and a reminder that after the departure of Jon Faverau, we were now in the hands of arch ironist/smart ass Shane Black.\n3 FIRST TIME EVER I SAW YOUR FACE (X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST)\nEiffel 65 did a great job immediately letting audiences know that \u201cIron Man 3\u201d would be kicking off in a different spot than expected. \u201cX-Men: Days of Future Past\u201d takes that gag to the extreme. Trapped in a dystopian future with no hope, Hugh Jackman\u2019s Wolverine gets catapulted back in time (thanks to new and unexplained mutant abilities possessed by Ellen Page\u2019s Shadowcat) with the hope that changing the past can make for a better tomorrow.\nThe movie uses a whole bunch of signifiers to make the \u201870s setting he winds up in ring true -- fashions, the political situation underscoring the plot -- but the first hint at something being up? The music. Logan awakens on a waterbed. The hotel room he\u2019s in is decorated in a particularly tasteless kind of brown. He\u2019s awoken from his woozy slumber by Roberta Flack\u2019s sensual 1972 cover of the folk standard \u201cFirst Time Ever I Saw Your Face.\u201d Textbook.\n2 HOOKED ON A FEELING (GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY)\nUsing a pop song in a film is always a gamble. Filmmakers are looking to piggyback on the existing success of a record, while at the same time hoping to supersede the associations the audience already has with it. When you hear the song used in the film, you want them to thereafter associate it with your film and the scene it was used in. \u201cGuardians of the Galaxy\u201d doubled down on this bet by using a pop song which was already associated with another movie.\nBlue Swede\u2019s cover of \u201cHooked on a Feeling\u201d featured on the soundtrack of \u201cReservoir Dogs,\u201d Quentin Tarantino\u2019s directorial debut, which cornered the market of nostalgic, easy-listening soundtracks 20 years before Star-Lord arrived on our screens. Yet that brilliant, bizarre \u201cooga chaka\u201d intro became a cornerstone of the film\u2019s marketing campaign, and is now more likely to recall the scene where it features -- of the eponymous team being led into jail, sized up and hosed down -- than of a bunch of well-dressed crooks in a warehouse. The gamble paid off.\n1 THE TIMES THEY ARE A-CHANGIN' (WATCHMEN)\nZack Snyder\u2019s adaptation of Dave Gibbons and Alan Moore\u2019s iconic \u201cWatchmen\u201d was always going to be divisive. There was no way such a beloved, influential deconstruction of superheroes, which made its way into the mainstream and onto TIME\u2019s list of the best fiction books ever, could please everybody in its leap from page to screen. One thing we can all agree upon, however, is that the opening titles are absolutely incredible.\nShot in Snyder\u2019s beloved slow-mo, the credits play out over footage of the alternate American history of \u201cWatchmen,\u201d with costumed heroes taking down mobsters, forcing the surrender of Japan during World War II, and playing a part in the Kennedy assassination. The weight of history is even heavier thanks to the inclusion of Bob Dylan\u2019s classic protest ditty \u201cThe Times They Are A-Changin\u2019,\u201d which were also excerpted in the original comic. This was perhaps the closest the movie ever got to capturing the spirit of its source material.\nDid we miss something? What song makes your top of the comic book movie pops?

        "raw_content": "Cleveland, Brown, and Blues\nIf you've seen \"Good Night and Good Luck,\" George Clooney's film on centered around CBS News journalist Edward Murrow's clashes with Senator Joseph McCarthy, you're familiar with one of the challenges that faced Joe and Shirley Wershba, CBS News employees who had to keep their marriage under wraps.\n\"They were - you weren't allowed to be in the company if you had a relative there, whether it was a cousin, an uncle, a sister, and certainly you couldn't be married,\" Shirley Wershba told Brooke Gladstone. \"We knew that one of us would have to quit. As a matter of fact, the boss at the time said he thought that we ought to get married, and I said, 'Well, we would, except I don't want to quit working.' So he said, 'Well, don't tell anybody about it. I'll try to clear it with Personnel,' which he never did, so we had to keep it a secret.\"\nToday brings new news of how marriage can complicate life for journalists. Pulitzer Prize-winning columnist Connie Schultz, of the Cleveland Plain Dealer, is married to Congressman Sherrod Brown. Until recently, the marriage has been a minor issue for the paper, which both covers Brown and runs Schultz' column. But it has become am \"increasingly painful\" one now that Brown has announced he will be challenging Republican Sen. Mike DeWine in the 2006 election.\nWrites Plain Dealer editor Doug Clifton (hat tip Romenesko):\nCan I ask Connie not to appear on the campaign trail with her husband? And if she does, can I ask her proud husband not to introduce her as \"my Pulitzer Prize-winning wife and columnist for The Plain Dealer?\"\nI have neither the ability to influence Sherrod Brown's conduct, nor the intent. But I do have influence on Connie and, happily, we're on the same page.\nShe has a keen understanding of the delicate position she - and our paper - are in. She understands that she can't both campaign for her husband and write a column. And I understand that she is a supportive spouse who will be at her candidate husband's side from time to time.\nIf there comes a time when Connie feels her obligations as the wife of a candidate require a more visible presence on the campaign, she will take a leave of absence. Meanwhile, look for Connie in her twice-weekly column, not campaigning for Sherrod Brown.\nAnd understand that Connie's relationship with candidate Brown will have no influence - for or against - our coverage of his campaign.\nThat explanation isn't likely to satiate critics, of course, particularly in a media environment in which news consumers of all ideological stripes pore over every journalistic word in search of evidence that a particular outlet is biased.\nStay tuned. It should be an interesting year in Cleveland.",

        "raw_content": "Seattle \"Dreamer\" to be released, judge rules\nSEATTLE -- A Mexican man who has spent more than six weeks in immigration detention despite his participation in a program designed to protect those brought to the U.S. illegally as children can be released from custody pending his deportation proceedings, an immigration judge ruled Tuesday.\nLawyers for Daniel Ramirez Medina, 24, told The Associated Press they expect him to be released as soon as Wednesday following the decision by Judge John Odell in Tacoma.\nRamirez spent 40 minutes answering questions from prosecutors during a two-hour hearing Tuesday, and he repeatedly and credibly denied having any connections with gangs, attorney Mark Rosenbaum said.\n\u201cHe answered every question the government put to him,\u201d Rosenbaum said. \u201cHe stayed true, and the government had no evidence whatsoever.\u201d\n\"Dreamer\" detained by immigration agents\nRosenbaum added: \u201cWe\u2019re thrilled he\u2019s getting out of a facility he never should have been in in the first place. But he\u2019s lost 45 days of his life. He\u2019s been vilified by the government.\u201d\nRose Richeson, a spokeswoman for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, did not immediately return an email seeking comment.\nImmigration agents arrested Ramirez on Feb. 10 at a suburban Seattle apartment complex where they had gone to arrest his father, a previously deported felon. Agents said Ramirez, who came to the U.S. at age 7, acknowledged affiliating with gangs. He adamantly denies any gang ties or making any such admission.\nRamirez has no criminal record and twice passed background checks to participate in the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, which allows young people brought to the U.S. illegally as children to stay in the country and work. Immigration officials revoked that status following his arrest and began deportation proceedings against him.\nREAD MORE: Brief on Ramirez from the Department of Homeland Security\nHis attorneys have pressed claims in federal court that the arrest and detention violated Ramirez\u2019s constitutional rights, but a federal judge in Seattle last week upheld a decision not to release him, saying he instead should challenge his detention in immigration court.\nU.S. District Judge Ricardo S. Martinez nevertheless said \u201cmany questions remain regarding the appropriateness of the government\u2019s conduct\u201d in arresting him.\nBard Luippold, of Tacoma, Wash., holds a sign in support of Daniel Ramirez Medina, Wednesday, March 8, 2017, outside the federal courthouse in Seattle. AP\nAmong those questions, his lawyers have said, are whether U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents misinterpreted a tattoo on his forearm when they described it as a \u201cgang tattoo\u201d in an arrest report. The lawyers say the tattoo, which says \u201cLa Paz BCS,\u201d pays homage to the city of La Paz in the Mexican state of Baja California Sur, where he was born.\nRamirez\u2019s case is one of several recent arrests that have left immigration activists fearing an erosion of protections under the DACA program instituted by President Barack Obama in 2012.\nCalifornia Latinos, fearful of ICE agents, slow the reporting of crimes\nICE agents in Portland, Oregon, on Sunday arrested Francisco J. Rodriguez Dominguez, a DACA participant who was brought to the U.S. from Morelia, in Mexico\u2019s Michoacan state, at age 5. Last December, he entered a diversion program following a drunken driving arrest and had attended all his court dates and required meetings, the American Civil Liberties Union of Oregon said in a statement.\nThe agency said Monday that it targeted Rodriguez Dominguez because of the DUI and that he would be released on bond pending deportation proceedings.\nRamirez\u2019s lawyers had sought to keep his case out of federal immigration court, which they said is ill-equipped to handle his claims that his arrest violated his constitutional rights to due process and to be free from unreasonable seizure.\nThe immigration judge set his bond at $15,000, which his lawyers say will be posted.\nAbout 750,000 immigrants have enrolled in the DACA program since it began.",

It includes a general education component consistent with the college and university requirements for the Bachelor of Science degree. The logic that underlies the sequence of the courses in each of these areas and the program educational objectives are described below. As part of the program, students must follow a strict policy of academic integrity.\nThe program\u2019s educational objectives are to produce graduates who will have the ability to attain high levels of technical expertise to enable their achievement in diverse chemical engineering practice and research, or in allied careers, prepare them for graduate level education, and enable them to be successful members of the professional community.\nA major goal of engineering is to contribute to the welfare of society. This contribution is best made when students have a broad understanding of the Humanities and the Social Sciences (HMNSS). This understanding is derived from the study of world history; political and economic systems; the ethnic, cultural, and religious diversity of the peoples of the earth; the arts and letters of all cultures; the social and natural sciences; and technology. Although not a formal part of the required HMNSS course of study for engineering majors, this understanding is strengthened by a stringent requirement in written communication (ENGL 1A, 1B, 1C).\nThe requirements in the Humanities consist of a minimum of three courses: one course in World History; one from Fine Arts, Literature, Philosophy, or Religious Studies; and one additional Humanities course. Breadth requirements in the Social Sciences are similarly structured: one course from either Economics or Political Science; one course from Anthropology, Psychology, or Sociology; and one additional Social Science course.\nIn addition, the campus breadth requirement in Ethnic Studies has the option of being incorporated into the above, or standing alone as an additional course. For depth, at least two Humanities or Social Science courses must be completed at the upper-division level and, at least two courses must be from the same subject area (for example, two courses in History), with at least one of them being an upper-division course.\nThe environmental engineering curriculum is built on a foundation of courses in mathematics and the basic sciences, which are taken in the first two years at the university. The basic sciences and mathematics courses that were selected emphasize concepts and principles. Students acquire a strong grounding in Physics through PHYS 40A, 40B and 40C. Each of these courses includes an extensive laboratory component. At the same time, students take a variety of basic sciences courses or introductory engineering courses that will provide them with the breadth necessary to solve multidisciplinary problems. These include Programming (CS 10), Cell Biology (BIO 5A), for all students, and selected biochemistry and biology courses for students following the biochemical engineering and bioengineering options.\nThe chemical engineering curriculum is also based on solid grounds of chemistry. General chemistry education starts with the CHEM 1A, 1B and 1C series which include laboratories. The students then acquire theoretical and laboratory experience in organic chemistry (CHEM 8A, 8B and 8C), which are the same courses taken by chemistry majors.\nDuring the first two years, students take five courses in mathematics that cover multivariable differential and integral calculus. These courses, MATH 9A, 9B, 9C and 10A and 10B, are followed by a course in ordinary differential equations, MATH 46. The basic mathematics knowledge will be later complemented with engineering mathematics and statistics in ENGR 118.\nMost of the courses in engineering sciences are taken after the student has acquired the necessary foundation in mathematics and the basic sciences. Several courses help students to become proficient in computer programming and the use of computer software. The computer knowledge acquired in CEE 10/11 (taken as freshman) and CS 10 (Introduction to Computer Science) is later reinforced in ENGR 118 (Engineering Modeling and Analysis), where students formulate computer models for engineering systems. Most courses taught in the junior and senior years incorporate computer-based problems and projects.\nEngineering topics taken either in the sophomore or junior years introduce students to the fundamentals of chemical engineering. Our curriculum incorporates solid foundations in transport phenomena, thermodynamics and breadth in unit operations, kinetics and process control. The chemical engineering curriculum emphasizes principles; however, each course trains students to carry the concepts forward toward creative applications. In the fall and winter of the sophomore year (junior year for transfer), students learn basic mass and energy balances in CHE 110A and CHE 110B (Chemical Process Analysis), before learning chemical engineering kinetics (CHE 122). The curriculum then focuses on Thermodynamics (ENGR 100, CHE/ENVE 130), Transport Phenomena (CHE 114 Fluid Dynamics, CHE 120 Mass Transfer, CHE 116 Heat Transfer), and selected option specific engineering courses. In the fall quarter of the junior year, students take ENGR 118, a five-unit course that teaches engineering numerical methods, formation of engineering models and their solutions through the numerical methods.\nAdvanced engineering topics taken by seniors include applications of transport phenomena in Separation Processes (CHE 117), which includes computer aided process design using professional software (SuperPro Designer), and Process Control (CHE 118). In addition, the curriculum allows the student to mold his or her program of professional specialty studies by allowing each student to choose from a number of technical electives. Examples of these electives include Catalysis (CHE 102), Analytical Methods for Chemical and Environmental Engineers (CEE 125), Chemistry of Materials (CEE 135), Technology of Air Pollution Control (ENVE 134) and Green Engineering (CEE 132) for the chemical engineering option; Biochemical Engineering Principles (CHE 124) and Laboratory (CHE 124L), Cell Engineering (CHE 140) for the biochemical engineering option; Biosensors (CHE 150), Biochemical Engineering Principles (CHE 124) and a variety of upper division biology for the students following the bioengineering option.\nIn the senior year, Professional Development for Engineers (CEE 158) exposes students to professional ethics, risk management and environmental health and safety, regulatory issues. One of the course objectives is to prepare students for transitioning to a successful career. The importance of lifelong learning and professional registration is emphasized.\nAs outlined in the previous section, engineering design is emphasized in each engineering course. Theoretical concepts are reinforced in laboratories.\nThe broad objectives of all laboratory classes are to reinforce concepts learned in lectures, provide hands-on experience in collecting data and operating engineering systems, challenge students in planning and conducting experiments, work in a team, and practice and improve technical writing and oral skills. The laboratory courses are based on the idea that students are in the best position to appreciate engineering experiments only when they have familiarity with the underlying theoretical principles. Thus, the first engineering laboratory course, CHE/ENVE 160A (Chemical and Environmental Engineering Laboratory), is offered in the Spring quarter of the junior year. This course is designed to train students in basic measurement techniques, and their application to fluid mechanics and mass transfer systems. Students perform seven out of the 10 available lab exercises on a rotating basis. CHE 160B and 160C work on a similar principle. CHE 160A is followed by CHE 160B (Chemical Engineering Laboratory), offered in the fall of the senior year, and CHE 160C, offered in the winter of the senior year. CHE 160B focuses on kinetics, reactor design and heat transfer. Students further practice physical measurements, experimental design, critical analysis of results, and preparation of engineering reports. Experimental design, critical analysis of results, and preparation of engineering reports is emphasized. When applicable, students are asked to compare their results with previously published ones, or to use their experimental data to size a unit operation, or conduct an engineering design exercise. CHE 160C deals with laboratory exercises in separation processes and in process control. Students are required to use their experimental data for scale-up purposes or for an application in engineering design.\nAdditional laboratory experience is acquired in CHE 124L (Biochemical Engineering Laboratory) for students following the biochemical engineering option, Analytical Methods for Chemical and Environmental Engineers (CEE 125) laboratories for students following the chemical engineering option, and advanced biology for students following the bioengineering option. Selected additional technical electives include a lab section as well.\nFor a majority of students, the senior design project (CHE 175A and 175B) offers another opportunity to perform laboratory work. In many cases, the design project requires students 1) to verify an assumption, 2) to determine the property of complex mixture, or 3) to construct a model system or a prototype for a proof of concept. The Department and the faculty have been supportive in terms of funding such laboratory work and the necessary resources have been made available. The process usually starts with the students analyzing their needs for laboratory work. They will then go through a decision making process for the selection of the materials, determination of the best experimental design, and development of the experimental protocol. Usually some device, equipment, or a pilot plant/reactor will be constructed. All the steps challenge the creativity of students and stimulate their analytical skills.\nFurther laboratory experience is often acquired by our students while conducting research with our faculty, either extracurricular activity (summer internship, or part-time research assistantship during the academic year) or for course credit through CHE 190 Special Studies. This provides one more opportunity to acquire advanced laboratory skills in emerging research areas.\nMost CHE courses and labs incorporate design, which addresses real-world problems with solutions that require creativity and consideration of alternatives to achieve objectives. Most students are introduced to the concept of design in their sophomore or junior year through individual design projects, for which students are asked to design a system or a component that satisfies specified constraints.\nExamples of courses that include a specific design project include, but are not limited to, Fluid Mechanics (CHE 114), Heat Transfer (ENGR 116), Engineering Modeling and Analysis (ENGR 118), Separation Processes (CHE 117) and Process Control (CHE 118). Specific design projects are based on material covered in the course. The design usually includes the following components: a) converting the design problem into quantifiable statements, b) formulating the equations that govern the design, c) developing assumptions necessary for solving the problem, and collecting the necessary information from vendors, books, publications, etc., d) selecting a method for and solving the design problem (analytically, numerically), e) critically reviewing and optimizing the design including ethical concerns and operation and maintenance considerations, and f) writing a summary report, and in select cases presenting results in front of the class.\nThese individual design projects prepare students for the capstone design project. The culmination of the students\u2019 design experience is the two-quarter capstone design course, CHE/ENVE 175A and 175B, in which students draw upon various aspects of their previous engineering science and design knowledge to address a meaningful design problem. Students learn to define the objectives (in a global context), explore possible options, plan and conduct experiments if needed, formulate preliminary solutions, and evaluate proposed alternatives with respect to economics, feasibility, societal, health and safety impacts, and sustainability.\nThis approach may require a number of iterations before a final comparative solution is achieved. Senior design projects are always team projects (usually three students). Chemical and environmental engineering students are encouraged to form mixed groups to promote diversity and a multidisciplinary approach. CHE 175A and 175B are run in a very professional manner. Each team maintains a chronological log of project work (to demonstrate the evolution of their design), submit timesheets and bimonthly reports consisting of 10-minute oral presentations (similar to an internal review in a consulting form) and a 1-3 page technical memo.\nBimonthly oral presentations as well as an end-of-first-quarter team oral presentation (15-20 minutes) are critiqued to provide feedback for developing effective communication skills. The first quarter (CHE 175A) focuses on project (concept) analysis, preliminary evaluation (economical and technical), data and literature collection, preliminary process design and evaluation, and becoming functional in simulation software packages such as PROII and SuperPro for modeling of an entire treatment plant.\nThe first quarter also includes risk analysis, occupational health and safety of treatment systems, environmental and ethical concerns, sustainability concepts and operation and maintenance considerations. The second quarter (CHE 175B) of the capstone design course focuses on the detailed engineering design of the process (equipment sizing and specification, etc.), comprehensive profitability evaluation and process optimization, in addition to ethics issues in the profession. In some cases, students build a prototype of their design concepts and prove the concept by laboratory experiments and obtain the kinetics of a treatment system required for scaling up to a full-scale system using simulation software to model steady state processes.\nMonitoring and assessment of ethical professional conduct are done with written and confidential self-group assessments, which are provided to the instructor and done twice each quarter. This provides students with a means to learn to work productively in teams by addressing professional and personality issues that may arise throughout the capstone design course, much like conflicts that arise in a real world setting. The course concludes with a formal oral presentation (30-40 minutes), which is evaluated by the faculty, and a comprehensive written technical report.",

        "raw_content": "The Four Steps to Success...\nMonday, November 14th, 2016 by Emma Hutchinson,\nI love it when things are broken down to their simplest, clearest essence, don\u2019t you? That\u2019s why I was pondering if I could break down what it takes to be successful in just a few words.\nBecause once you\u2019ve grasped the essence of something, it becomes a part of you. It\u2019s yours \u2013 and no one can take it away.\nSo after much thought, I\u2019ve come to the following conclusion concerning success\u2026\nI believe the consistent, planned achievement of success can be boiled down to doing just 4 things:\n\u2013 Committing to Your Goal\n\u2013 Setting Up Your Step-by-Step Plan for Reaching That Goal\n\u2013 Taking Action EVERY Day\n\u2013 And Then Letting Go of The Outcome\nThat\u2019s it. No matter what your aspirations are, I believe if you simply and consistently do those four things, you will be successful. Let\u2019s take a look at these in order.\nFirst, you\u2019ve got to have a goal. You can\u2019t get to your destination if you don\u2019t know what your destination is \u2013 how would you know when you\u2019ve arrived? So you\u2019ve got to choose a goal, preferable one that makes your heart beat a little faster and puts a smile on your face just thinking about it. You\u2019ve got to be able to see yourself having achieved that goal. You\u2019ve got to feel it, believe it and live it even before you take the first step towards achieving it.\nBut having the goal is not enough \u2013 you\u2019ve also got to be COMMITTED to achieving that goal. This means a complete willingness to do whatever it takes in terms of time, focus, effort and priority. You\u2019ve got to be determined, not just at the beginning, but all the way through until you achieve your goal.\nSecond, you need a step-by-step plan for reaching your goal. It\u2019s one thing to say you\u2019re going to become a millionaire \u2013 it\u2019s an entirely different thing to actually have a workable plan that will get you there. Chance won\u2019t take you there. Sitting and wishing won\u2019t take you there. Only by following your plan can you arrive at your destination.\nAnd while it\u2019s true there will be roadblocks and detours along the way, you will also find serendipitous good fortune as well, the kind that places the right person at the right time by your side to help you. So have a plan, but be open to changes in that plan. And never take your eyes off the goal.\nThird, you\u2019ve got to take action every day. EVERY day. So many people get the first two right, but they fail to follow through. Their first downfall may come as soon as they\u2019ve set the goal and made the plan, because now they feel they\u2019ve achieved something and can take a rest. Not true. Having a goal and creating a plan are the steps you take PRIOR to achievement \u2013 they are not achievements themselves.\nSo the moment you create your plan, take an action step. And then each day there after, do not go to bed until you have taken another step. Even if it\u2019s late and you\u2019re tired, do SOMETHING to get yourself closer to your goal.\nFourth, you\u2019ve got to let go of the outcome. This sounds contrary, doesn\u2019t it? Certainly it\u2019s the most difficult step of the four to understand. But if you are desperate to achieve your goal, you will actually self-sabotage and push that goal further away from you, rather than drawing it closer.\nDetermination is one thing, desperation is another. Determination allows you to take calm, continuous action. But if you are desperate, you are moving out of focused action and into emotional reaction.\nHow do you know if you are desperate? If you have thoughts such as, \u201cI can\u2019t be happy without this,\u201d or \u201cI can\u2019t be successful if I don\u2019t achieve this,\u201d then you are desperate. You are telling yourself that you cannot be happy or successful in the present because you have not achieved those things.\nThe remedy? Letting go of the outcome and instead focusing on being excited and enthusiastic about not just the goal, but also the process itself. When you feel motivated and invigorated, you can easily visualize your goal coming to pass. This stimulates positive brain chemistry that focuses your conscious creation of your goal. Not to mention it just plain feels good and gives you all the energy you need to work on achieving your goal every single day.\nThere you have it \u2013 success in four easy steps. And no matter what you want to accomplish, this mini road map can take you there.\nLearn it, live it and love it, and it will be yours forever. Imagine that \u2013 the key to achieving anything you want, right here before you.\nOne last thing \u2013 some of you are saying to yourselves, \u201cBut I\u2019ve heard this before.\u201d I wouldn\u2019t be surprised if you have. But the issue isn\u2019t whether or not you\u2019ve heard it \u2013 the issue is whether or not you are LIVING it.\nSo tell me \u2013 are you? If not, I\u2019d like to suggest the following\u2026\nMake a commitment to yourself right here and now that you will memorise these four steps and immediately put them into action. Commit to yourself that you will spend every day for the next 30 days using these steps to achieve a goal that you really want.\nAnd then report back to me with the results. As you can imagine, you\u2019ll be pleasantly surprised by what you achieve.\nDownloadable Quote Card: Success can be boiled down to doing just 4 things; Committing to Your Goal, Setting Up Your Step-by-Step Plan for Reaching That Goal, Taking Action EVERY Day, And Then Letting Go of The Outcome\nCover Photo by go digital and covered under Creative Commons\nSomeone once asked me when is the best time to launch a product, to start up that new business, to...",

Check out this story on chillicothegazette.com: http://ohne.ws/2Dquic1\nRodney Cydrus(Photo11: Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction)\nCINCINNATI - A Chillicothe man serving time in a Warren County prison pleaded guilty on Thursday to sending threatening letters with white powder to federal agencies.\nRodney D. Cydrus, 48, ground up his medication and included it in one of five threatening letters he sent while incarcerated at Lebanon Correctional Institution where he is serving time on 2011 convictions out of Ross County for multiple charges including the 2008 arson at Book World. He also was convicted of retaliation in Warren County in 2014.\nAccording to court documents, on five separate occasions in January 2017, Cydrus mailed letters threatening to injure numerous government officials, including the President of the United States, federal judges, the FBI and the Federal Public Defender\u2019s Office.\nFour of the letters were addressed to the FBI and the letter including the white powder was addressed to the Federal Public Defender\u2019s Office.\nCydrus was indicted by a federal grand jury in February 2017 and pleaded guilty to mailing threatening communication before U.S. District Judge Michael R. Barrett. The charge is punishable by up to 10 years in prison.\nU.S. Attorney Benjamin Glassman commended the investigation by the FBI and U.S. Secret Service, as well as Assistant United States Attorney Timothy S. Mangan, who is prosecuted the case.\nChillicothe police handled three similar reports in January and February 2017 of letters with white powder inside that appeared to have been sent by an inmate, but no one has been charged. At least one of the letters indicated the writer was angry with Chillicothe and mentioned \"magic dust.\"\nCydrus has an extensive criminal background. He was arrested in 2009 in Illinois after what officials had called a seven-state crime spree involving break-ins and fires set at businesses. He was sentenced to seven years in prison in Illinois on charges of arson and burglary and to 10 years on 15 charges in Ross County related to multiple break-ins and two arsons.\nThe crime spree began not long after Cydrus had been released from serving time on various charges from the early 1990s that included aggravated robbery.\nRead or Share this story: http://ohne.ws/2Dquic1",

        "raw_content": "Truth, Christmas, and the Eucharist\nWhy I didn't like the hymns and praise songs we were singing\u2014and why I was missing the point.\nby Kevin Timpe| December 20, 2005\nI had just finished my third semester as a philosophy professor at a Christian university. One of the things I tried to do that semester was to meet my new colleagues from other departments. One particular such meeting near the beginning of the semester sticks out in my mind. I was having coffee with a professor from the English department whose work in Milton has some connections to my own research in the philosophy of religion. Partway into our conversation, my colleague made the following perplexing remark: \"What I don't understand about you philosophers is that you only care about the truth.\" I got the feeling, from the tone of his voice, that he intended this statement in a pejorative way, though for the life of me I couldn't figure out how this was supposed to be an insult. I must admit that I would be happy knowing all and only the truth. (Actually, since it is impossible to know a falsehood, the \"and only\" clause is redundant, but I'm trying to talk less like a philosopher in an effort not to alienate all my colleagues too quickly!) Unfortunately, I didn't get a chance to ask him what he meant by this comment, as another colleague came over and the topic of conversation changed.\nFast-forward several months to the second Sunday of Christmas. I'm sitting in church thinking how much I don't like many of the songs that we sing. It seems like my philosophically skewed mind cares too much about the truth-value of the various propositions that I'm asked to articulate in song. For example, a recent chorus included the following refrain: \"Brokenness is what God wants from me.\" Really? I thought God wanted to restore me to wholeness! Or take another recent example. Am I really expected to sing that God is \"in light inaccessible, ...\nChristmasChurch MusicCommunionHymnsIncarnationPhilosophyWorship",

Here are five movies you should definitely place your bets on, whether you\u2019re a fan of poker night with your friends, online gambling at home or great movies in general.\nThis Hong Kong action film has just the right amount of comedy and drama to make it an entertaining romp. Starring silver screen bigwig Chow Yun-fat, this film follows the antics of a world-renowned gambler as he travels, bets and ultimately loses his memory. Immensely popular, this movie has spawned a stunning six sequels and nine spin-offs.\nThe same year as God of Gamblers came out, Casino Raiders also cashed in on the gambling trend in movies. Another Hong Kong action drama, Casino Raiders tells the story of Crab Chan and Sam Law, professional gamblers who are also best friends. This movie is nowhere near as light as God of Gamblers, spinning a darker tale of the dangers of gambling and organized crime.\nWith the trend of Hong Kong gambling movies still running strong, The Conman premiered in 1998 with a mix of comedy and action that pleased a range of viewers. Boasting a large cast of colorful characters, this film also garnered a Hong Kong Film Award nomination for supporting actor Nick Cheung.\nNearly a decade after the allure of Asian gambling movies started to wear off, the film Tazza: The High Rollers made a name for itself. A South Korean gambling movie based on the manhwa (comic) \u201cTajja,\u201d Tazza follows the story of a gambler-in-training seeking revenge for his family, who lost their entire life\u2019s savings to followers of the habit. Fun fact: Tazza is one of South Korea\u2019s highest grossing films to date.\nFrom Vegas to Macau (2014)\nThe world recently revisited the God of Gamblers series with From Vegas to Macau. This crime-comedy film stars many of the regulars, including Chow Yun-fat, and explores similar themes such as gambling, gangsters and family ties. It was quickly followed by the most recent sequel in the lineup, From Vegas to Macau II (2015).\nAsian Movies\tLeave a comment\nJanuary 9, 2017 wp_carisel\nHundreds of movies are released every years but only a few become successful. The recipe for a successful film is quite simple, a small budget plus massive ticket sales which leads to huge profits. According to data, the following movies are most successful in Asia.\nMoster Hunt is a Chinese fantasy action comedy directed by Raman Hui and starred by Jing Boran and Bai Baihe.\nIt was released on 16th July, 2015 in in 3D. Upon its release, it broke numerous box office records including the most successful movie in Asia and has grossed a massive $382 million.\nThis yet another successful Asian based movie.

The Ghouls has collected over $255,747,040.\nThis is a comedy film packed with action. Its story is based on a middle aged man who takes his wife on vacation to Hon Kong but his brother tags along and they all fall into a series of mishaps. It was released on 25th Sep, 2015 and on 19th November in Hong Kong.

It was released in Macau and Hong Kong box office on 15th Oct, 2015 and later released in China on 19th November 2015.\nOur times is about a school girl who is in love with a popular boy but ends up being an errand girl for the school gangster. This movie has grossed over $81.5 million.\nThis is a South Korean espionage action movie directed and co written by Choi Dong Hoon. This film is among the top grossing movies in Asia with over 12.7 million admissions and an income of over $86,915,500\nHimalayas is a South Korean drama film about a touching story of a team that goes to the Himalays to find their lost friend. It was directed by Lee Seok hoon and released on 16th December, 2015. This movies has been a huge success grossing over $49,772,226.\nLastly is hero, an Indian romantic action film that was directed by Nikhil and co written by Umesh Bist. It was a remake of Subbash Ghai\u2019s which was directed in 1983 under the same name.\nHero was released on 11th September 2015 worldwide and it has collected over $37,473,829\nAsian Movie Industry\tLeave a comment\nPreviously, the sustenance of America film Industry came from domestic ticket sales within US but today, overseas markets especially Asia have become profoundly important.\nThis is due to the increasing growth of Asia\u2019s middle class which has created a huge new entertainment market industry. For example, China was involved in building about 27 cinema screens daily surpassing the US which has a total of 40,475 screens. Also, the revenue from China\u2019s box office is likely to surpass that of the United States making it the largest movie market in the world.\nObviously, the film industry in US will want to reach the Asian customers but some Asian countries limit the number of foreign films that get in every year. Regardless, America film industry is busy adapting to the needs of Asian moviegoers.\nThe entry of American film industry into Asian countries calls for a lot of vigilance as it can no longer afford to reinforce the old stereotypes if it wants to benefit financially from the international film market. Movie makers have to start considering other cultures, the things they value as well as how they view the world and include them into the storytelling.\nThis may force the US film industry to go to extraordinary lengths. For example, when Red Dawn thriller was released, it featured Chinese villains which led to a lot of criticism in the Chinese media. This resulted to the removal of all villain scenes and they were replaced with North Koreans.\nAnother consequence of conveying US values to the rest of the world is that certain American narratives may have to be omitted from the entertainment industry. This includes stories of African Americans as finding their audience in the international market has always been a struggle and other countries do not relate with their stories.\nAlso, it will pose as a challenge to certain genres especially comedy. This is because most comedians do not translate the humour and it is likely not to play well in most parts of Asia.\nPositive impacts of Asian influence in America film industry\nA major bonus of the growing Asian market is that it provides a big safety net for the American based movies that fail domestically. There are many examples of stumbling US box office but doing great in the Asian market such as the sci-fi war film Battleship, starring Rihanna and Liam Neeson which generated $65 million only in ticket sales in US but brought a whopping $187 million from Asia.\nThe growing Asia market brings profitability to films that could have otherwise sunk if they relied on domestic box office only.\nCommercially, United States reliance on Asian market has been nothing but successful. Catering for the increased number of audiences may have its challenges but the international market is keeping the American film industry pulsating with life. Even with predictions that Asia may dominate the film industry in the coming years, American film industry still retains its dominance as the most robust exports in the world.\nJanuary 8, 2017 January 8, 2017 wp_carisel\nThe treasure hunter is an American drama film directed and co written by David Zellner. It stars are kanako Higashi, Nathan Zellner, David Zellner, hirley Venard, Nobuyuki Katsube and Rinko Kikuchi.\nThe treasure hunter premiered on 20th January, 2014 at the Sundance Film Festival and later made its international premiere on 8th February, 2014 at the 64th Berlin International Film Festival.\nThe main character in this film, Kumiko, a 29 year old office lady lives in absolute solitude in Tokyo. She has a dreadful job under a boss she distastes, is nagged by her overbearing mother to get married and is intimated by her peers.\nShe only enjoys the company of her pet, Bunzo the rabbit and a VHS tape containing Fargo film which she found in a secluded cave in the shore. Komiko is convinced the film is based on a true story and becomes obsessed over a scene where the character played by Steve Buscemi hides a bag of ransom money along a snowy highway. She begins taking notes while watching the tape. She then goes ahead and attempts to steal an atlas at the local library but is unfortunately caught by the security guard who eventually pities and allows her to take the atlas.\nWith the threat of a younger person taking over her and increased pressure from her mother to go back home, Kumiko abandons her pet rabbit and boards a place to Minneapolis using the company card. With the map, Kumiko begins the journey to find the alleged fortune. When she gets to Minneapolis, she is unprepared for the winter weather, can barely communicate in English and her boss cancels her card. Pressed for cash, she is picked by an old woman but she later sneaks out and continues with her search for the purported treasure.\nShe is later picked by the sheriff deputy after passerby report her to be wandering through the streets. She explains the film to him but an attempt by the sheriff to explain to her that the film is fiction is futile due to language barrier. The officer takes her to a Chinese restaurant hoping to get someone who can translate. While at the restaurant, Kumiko calls her mother to ask for some money but the mother accuses of theft and continues to criticize her for being unmarried. This makes kumiko to break down.\nWith the help of the office, Kumiko buys winter clothes and kisses the officer who explains that he is married and continues to tell her that the treasure does not exist. She runs to a taxi upset and asks to be driven towards Fargo. While there, she frees across the field and wonders through the frozen lake looking through the ice for the bag. From a distance she notices something that looks like a suitcase and is convinced that it is the treasure bag only to find a decayed oar.\nKumiko continues to wander deeper into the forest and eventually sees the bag containing money. Ecstatic, she scream, I was right after all!\u2019 She then meets with Bunzo, her pet rabbit, reunites with him and walks away proudly.\nThis film has won numerous awards including the Best Female lead and Best director. Producer, Chris Ohlson has also received tremendous awards including the Spirit Award Piaget Producer award.",

        "title": "How Toronto's Gardiner Expressway Could Be Transformed Into a Major Public Park - CityLab",
        "raw_content": "Toronto Wants to Turn the Underpass of a Highway Into a Major Public Park\nProject: Under Gardiner would transform an elevated highway into a public park space with dozens of uses.\nBack in June, the Toronto City Council voted against removing the Gardiner Expressway that rumbles through the city along the shore of Lake Ontario. The council voted instead for a \u201chybrid\u201d plan that would reconfigure part of the freeway in eastern Toronto while preserving the elevated road in downtown and western Toronto.\nSo Toronto still has to live with the elevated expressway. But the city doesn\u2019t have to like it. And since Toronto can\u2019t (or won\u2019t) undo the Gardiner Expressway altogether, the city is planning around it. Project: Under Gardiner, a public\u2013private park partnership, might be the best way to make do.\nThe project would convert a roughly 10-acre parcel stretching underneath the Gardiner into space for markets, park space, event areas, and other public uses. It will be built with a $25 million private donation. Public Work, a Toronto-based architecture firm, is responsible for the design for Project: Under Gardiner, which will draw inevitable comparisons to New York\u2019s High Line.\nIn fact, while the Under Gardiner and the High Line both make use of outmoded city infrastructure, the projects will be quite different. Like the High Line, the Under Gardiner will touch a number of neighborhoods (Liberty Village, Niagara, Fort York, CityPlace, Bathurst Quay, and Wellington Place). But the Under Gardiner will be divided into as many as 55 \u201ccivic rooms\u201d that will provide different kinds of programming: from shopping and entertainment to education and recreation. Notwithstanding the art put on by Friends of the High Line, the New York park is a pretty much an elevated park.\nThe core of the Under Gardiner will be a pedestrian and cycling trail that\u2019s just over a mile long. The trail will run from Stratchan Avenue to Spadina Avenue and connect with two major design elements, according to The Globe and Mail architecture critic Alex Bozikovic. One will be an outdoor \u201cgrand stair\u201d at Strachan; the other is a pedestrian foot bridge over Fort York Boulevard.\nThe infrastructure itself will be put to use to host the functions of Project: Under Gardiner. The elevated expressway, which rises about 50 feet in the air, is supported by 55 \u201cbents\u201d or spans of concrete. These will form natural dividers for the program space and support lighting and other mechanical needs. \u201cFor Public Work, the highway\u2019s bone structure provides a powerful aesthetic starting point,\u201d Bozikovic writes.\nMore than the High Line, this space more closely resembles another infrastructure-reuse project: the 11th Street Bridge Park design for Washington, D.C. But unlike that proposal for a river-spanning park over disused bridge piers, the Under Gardiner has already garnered all the financial support it needs to become a reality, thanks to a major gift from two philanthropists.\nThat doesn\u2019t mean that the proposal hasn\u2019t attracted criticism in Toronto.\n\"Project: Under Gardiner\" is Today's Cartoon in @TorontoStar #Toronto pic.twitter.com/a4SNlFYsGG\n\u2014 Theo Moudakis (@TheoMoudakis) November 18, 2015\nPlanners aim to finish the initial phase of Project: Under Gardiner by 2017, an ambitious schedule. As Bozikovic writes, it makes sense to plan the construction of the Under Gardiner with the $145 million in work already planned for the western part of the Gardiner. Although, presumably, if the Under Gardiner is completed sooner rather than later, it might inform any future debate about what happens next with the eastern stretch of the highway.\nThe Toronto City Council will decide early next month whether they should accept the $25 million, and since they almost certainly will, work could begin on the park quite soon. One of the first items of business: \u201cReclaim the Name,\u201d a campaign to give the Under Gardiner a name that\u2019s \u201cuniquely Torontonian.\u201d The obvious choice would be the Under Line, although that\u2019s not especially nor uniquely Torontonian. \u201cUnder Gardiner\u201d does sound a bit close to \u201cUndergarment,\u201d which is kind of a cool name for a park.",

        "raw_content": "Villa 31, an informal settlement in Buenos Aires\u2014a city experiencing both developing-country and developed-country symptoms of the global housing crisis. Natacha Pisarenko/AP\nThe Global Housing Crisis\nScarce, unaffordable housing is not a local problem in a few places, but is baked into the 21st-century global city. It\u2019s time for cities, nations, and global leaders to start acting like it.\nFrom reading the press, you\u2019d think the housing crisis is mainly relevant to superstar cities like New York, London, and San Francisco. But housing is becoming increasingly expensive in a wide range of cities, including Philadelphia and Detroit. And the worst of the housing crisis by far is not in the wealthy cities of the advanced world, but in the rapidly urbanizing cities of the developing world, where hundreds of millions of people live in substandard housing, lacking electricity, running water, or basic sanitation.\nThe global housing crisis reflects a fundamental paradox of contemporary capitalism. Cities around the world are more economically powerful and essential than ever. This creates tremendous demand for their land, leading to escalating housing costs and competition.\nMeanwhile, housing has been financialized and turned into an investment vehicle, which has caused an oversupply of luxury housing and a lack of affordable housing in many cities across the world. The global housing crisis is defined by a chronic shortage of housing for the least advantaged, and in many cases, for the working and middle classes as well.\nAlthough increasing the housing supply and strengthening renter protections are necessary and important steps, cities alone cannot address the deep structural problem of housing affordability. Where possible, higher levels of government and international development organizations will need to step in to rein in financialization and provide the affordable housing that is so badly needed. But if past is precedent, cities will remain stuck with many of these burdens, and will have to come up with creative solutions to this crisis.\nThe housing crisis in the developed world\nLet\u2019s start with the best-known aspect of the crisis: the affordability crunch in the world\u2019s most expensive cities. The chart below shows the world\u2019s most unaffordable cities, based on 2017 data from Demographia. Their unaffordability is calculated based on a clever metric called the \u201cmedian multiple,\u201d which is a ratio of median housing costs to median incomes. This metric allows for straightforward comparisons of the multiple of income devoted to housing in cities around the world.\n(14th Annual Demographia International Housing Affordability Survey, Wendell Cox and Hugh Pavletich)\nThe world\u2019s most unaffordable housing markets are not New York, London, and Los Angeles, or even San Francisco, but Hong Kong, Sydney, Vancouver, and Melbourne. London, Toronto, and Brisbane are also high up the list. Housing is also terribly unaffordable in Tokyo, Singapore, Shanghai, Beijing, Moscow, Paris, Stockholm, Amsterdam, Geneva, Rome, Milan, and Barcelona, according to other studies.\nSeveral factors appear to be driving the housing affordability crisis of the advanced world. Expensive cities have simply not built enough homes to keep up with growth in employment or population. There are many well-known reasons for this, including NIMBYism, restrictive land-use polices, and the constraints of geography. And, of course, we have seen a sweeping urban revival and the rise of winner-take-all urbanism, in which talent, technology, and other economic assets are densely packed into a small number of neighborhoods.\nA man walks past signage advertising luxury apartments for sale in central London. (Luke MacGregor/Reuters)\nA 2018 report on European real estate trends by PwC and the Urban Land Institute calls urbanization \u201cperhaps the most significant influencer of real estate strategies in recent years.\u201d In the United States, not just tech startups but established companies have been moving their headquarters to downtown areas. Coca-Cola recently moved 2,000 of its suburban employees to a downtown Atlanta skyscraper; General Electric moved its headquarters from suburban Connecticut to downtown Boston; and McDonald\u2019s is moving its headquarters from the suburbs to downtown Chicago.\nWhile the advantaged members of the knowledge, professional, and creative class have enough money left over even after paying the cost of housing in these cities, it\u2019s the less-well-paid members of the service and working classes who get the short of end of the stick, with not nearly enough left over to afford the basic necessities of life. They are either pushed to the periphery of these places or pushed out all together.\nMany of the less advantaged are renters, not owners. Owners were essentially able to lock in their housing costs at the time of purchase, and thereby benefit from significant appreciation. And rents have increased even faster than housing prices in many metropolitan areas. Indeed, rents in the U.S. increased by 22 percent on average between 2006 and 2014, while average incomes decreased by 6 percent. This has meant escalating rent burdens, which, again, fall heaviest on the least advantaged. Nearly half of all renters across America are \u201ccost burdened,\u201d spending more than 30 percent of their income on housing. And nearly three-quarters of households earning less than $15,000 per year devote more than half of their income to housing.\nLittle wonder that homelessness is growing across the U.S. The homeless encampments springing up in prosperous places like Orange County, California, and Seattle are reminiscent of the all-too-common informal settlements of the developing world.\nThe housing crisis in the developing world\nThe most severe aspect of the global housing crisis by far is the housing situation faced by some 850 million people\u2014more than the populations of the U.S. and the European Union combined\u2014who live in informal settlements. The map below from the Bloomberg Global City Housing Affordability Index shows that as bad as the housing affordability crisis is in expensive cities, it is even worse in the rapidly urbanizing cities of the Global South, where rents as a share of income average 100 percent, 150 percent, 200 percent, or even higher. The most expensive and desirable cities in North America and Europe are far more affordable by comparison.\n(Bloomberg News)\nAccording to this metric, the most unaffordable cities in the world are all in the Global South\u2014cities like Hanoi, Mumbai, Bogot\u00e1, Buenos Aires, and Rio de Janeiro, where housing costs exceed 200 or 300 percent of incomes. The most unaffordable city of all is Caracas, whose economy is in a tailspin. There, average housing costs exceed incomes by more than 3,000 percent.\nWith as many as 200,000 people pouring into the cities of the Global South every day, it is projected that the number of people who live in informal housing will exceed 1 billion by 2020. The housing crisis of the Global South is compounded by the troubling rise of \u201curbanization without growth.\u201d In the past, urbanization supported the development of local industries needed to support growth, like manufacturing, brick-making, and food processing, which in turn supported the growth of a middle class. In today\u2019s globalized economy, these local connections have been sundered, and those activities can and do take place virtually anywhere, leaving cities split between affluent knowledge workers and the truly disadvantaged.\nThe global financialization of housing\nIt\u2019s not just industry and services that have become global, but housing as well. In the past, housing was built and paid for locally. Even in advanced economies like the U.S., local savings and loan institutions, like the community bank Jimmy Stewart worked for in It\u2019s a Wonderful Life, provided the bulk of financing for housing up until the massive financial deregulation that began in the 1980s.\nBut with the creation of new financial instruments related to housing, this local connection was broken. Housing, and especially its financing, became a national and then a global industry.\nA 2017 report by the UN special rapporteur on adequate housing defines the financialization of housing as \u201cstructural changes in housing and financial markets and global investment whereby housing is treated as a commodity, a means of accumulating wealth and often as security for financial instruments that are traded and sold on global markets.\u201d In other words, housing is increasingly intertwined with flows of global capital; housing markets are now more responsive to these flows than to local conditions.\nThe UN report estimates the total value of global real estate to account for 60 percent of global assets, with a value of $217 trillion, three-quarters of which is housing. That\u2019s nearly three times the world\u2019s total economic output. Since the Great Recession (which, ironically, was caused by real estate speculation), real estate markets have grown at a faster rate than many other financial markets.\nAs Saskia Sassen has documented, the main players in this market are giant corporations and private equity firms\u2014in 2015, corporations purchased $1 trillion in real estate in the world\u2019s top 100 global cities. Sovereign banks from countries like China, which recently relaxed its foreign investment rules, as well as oil-rich countries looking to diversify their portfolios, like Norway and Qatar, are also notable players in the global real estate market. Laurence Fink, CEO of the private equity giant BlackRock, said apartments in cities like New York, London, and Vancouver have begun to replace gold as the primary store of wealth for the super-rich.\nPerhaps the most frustrating aspect about the financialization of housing is the fact that all of the money being poured into housing markets has not contributed to a significant increase in supply, but rather to an increase in ultra-high-end units that are extremely expensive to produce. If even a portion of this global housing investment was \u201cdirected towards affordable housing and access to credit for people in need of it,\u201d the UN report notes, the UN\u2019s sustainable development goal \u201cto ensure adequate housing for all by 2030, would be well within reach.\u201d\nIn cities around the world, urbanization without growth has brought along a disturbing corollary: urbanization without housing. In the past, booming cities were able to accommodate massive influxes of new residents, but no longer. Today, the places with the most economic opportunity are too unaffordable for the people who would benefit from it the most.\nThe Rise and Fall of American Public Housing\nHow Cities Are Making the Global Housing Crisis Worse\nWhen it comes to housing, even the most forward-thinking and aggressive cities have at best tinkered at the margins. Berlin created a universal rent cap for its low-income residents. Inclusionary zoning has picked up steam in may U.S. cities. The province of British Columbia, where Vancouver is located, instituted a special tax on foreign real estate investments. Tokyo has kept housing relatively affordable through extremely high rates of residential construction. In the much harder-hit cities of the Global South, some call for more expansion at the urban periphery; others call for better infrastructure; and still others call for empowering neighborhoods and communities to build more housing for themselves.\nThese are all worthwhile ideas with proven benefits, but ultimately, they may not be enough to alter the structural forces in play.\nWe must confront the fact that the global housing crisis is not something that is affecting one part of the world or another. It is baked into the very structure of our fast-urbanizing world. While factors like NIMBYism and land-use restrictions certainly exacerbate the housing supply and affordability problems of superstar cities, nearly all global cities are falling short on building enough housing, and enough functional, affordable housing, for those who need it most.\nIn order to correct this, we must no longer see housing primarily as a financial instrument or investment vehicle, but as a basic human right.",

        "raw_content": "Uranium Participation Corporation Reports Financial Results For The Year Ended February 28, 2018\nTORONTO, April 05, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Uranium Participation Corporation (\"UPC\" or the \u201cCorporation\u201d) today filed its Financial Statements and Management's Discussion & Analysis (\"MD&A\") for the year ended February 28, 2018. Both documents can be found on the Company's website (www.uraniumparticipation.com) or on SEDAR (www.sedar.com). The highlights provided below are derived from these documents and should be read in conjunction with them. All amounts are in Canadian dollars, unless otherwise noted.\nNet asset value (in thousands) $ 463,329 $ 462,345\nU3O8 spot price(1) (US$) $ 21.25 $ 22.25\nUF6 spot price(1) (US$) $ 62.00 $ 64.00\nForeign exchange noon-rate (US$ to CAD$) 1.2809 1.3248\n(1) Spot prices as published by Ux Consulting Company, LLC (\u201cUxC\u201d).\nThe net loss for the year ended February 28, 2018 was mainly driven by unrealized net losses on investments in uranium of $29,368,000, realized losses on the sale of conversion components of $4,079,000, and operating expenses of $4,038,000, slightly offset by income from uranium relocation agreements of $224,000 (2017 \u2013 unrealized net losses on investments in uranium of $201,882,000 and operating expenses of $4,971,000, slightly offset by income from uranium lending and relocation agreements of $819,000).\nUnrealized net losses on investments in uranium during the year ended February 28, 2018 were mainly due to the decrease in the spot price for uranium. The spot prices during the fiscal year decreased from US$22.25 per pound U3O8 and US$64.00 per KgU as UF6 at February 28, 2017, to US$21.25 per pound U3O8 and US$62.00 per KgU as UF6 at February 28, 2018. The unrealized net loss on investments in uranium was also negatively impacted by 3% decrease in the U.S. dollar to Canadian dollar exchange rate during fiscal 2018. Unrealized net losses on investments in uranium during the year ended February 28, 2017 were mainly due to the decrease in spot prices from US$32.15 per pound U3O8 and US$90.00 per KgU as UF6 at February 29, 2016 to US$22.25 per pound U3O8 and US$64.00 per KgU as UF6 at February 28, 2017, as well as a 2% decrease in the U.S. dollar to Canadian dollar exchange rate during fiscal 2017.\nDuring the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018, the Corporation recorded an unrealized net loss on investments in uranium of $10,877,000 and a net loss for the period of $16,467,000. The unrealized net loss on investments in uranium was predominantly driven by the decrease in the spot price of uranium from US$22.00 per pound U3O8 and US$62.00 per KgU as UF6 at November 30, 2017, to US$21.25 and US$62.00 respectively at February 28, 2018. The unrealized net loss on investments in uranium was also negatively impacted by a 1% decrease in the U.S. dollar to Canadian dollar foreign exchange rate in the period. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018, the Corporation also recognized a realized loss on the sale of conversion components of $4,079,000. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017, the Corporation recorded an unrealized net gain on investments in uranium of $74,078,000 and a net gain for the period of $73,819,000, predominantly due to the increase in the spot price of uranium from US$18.25 per pound U3O8 and US$53.40 per KgU as UF6 at November 30, 2016, to US$22.25 and US$64.00 respectively at February 28, 2017, partially offset by a 1% increase in the U.S. dollar to Canadian dollar foreign exchange rate in the period.\nTotal equity increased to $465,528,000 at February 28, 2018, from $462,345,000 at February 28, 2017. The increase in equity was due to the net proceeds of the Company\u2019s $40,600,000 equity financing, which resulted in the issuance of 11,600,000 common shares, offset by the net loss for the year.\nThe Corporation had an effective tax rate of nil for the years ended February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017, primarily due to the low tax rate in the jurisdiction of its subsidiary as well as the fact that the Corporation\u2019s available tax shelter and cost basis related to its investments in uranium in Canada give rise to a net deductible temporary difference \u2013 for which the Corporation does not recognize deferred tax assets.\nTaken together, UPC\u2019s NAV per share decreased to $3.50 at February 28, 2018, from $3.83 at February 28, 2017.\nOperating expenses of $4,038,000, partially offset by income from lending and/or relocation of uranium of $224,000 for the year ended February 28, 2018, represents approximately 0.8% of the NAV at February 28, 2018 and 0.8% of the NAV at February 28, 2017.\nDuring fiscal 2018, the spot price of uranium continued to be relatively volatile. After a strong start in the first quarter, with spot prices increasing from US$22.25 per pound U3O8 at February 28, 2017 to a high of US$25.50 in March 2017, prices fell back to the US$20 per pound range in May 2017 and remained at this level for much of the second and third fiscal quarters. The price volatility in the first quarter of calendar 2017 and fiscal 2018 followed significant production cuts in Canada, the United States, Kazakhstan and Africa, which were announced in late calendar 2016 and early calendar 2017. The production cuts came after a period of prolonged depressed uranium prices, which, according to UxC, were below the all-in production costs of most of the world\u2019s sources of primary uranium supply and coincident with the expected expiration of higher priced supply contracts signed during the utility contracting cycle in the mid-to-late 2000\u2019s.\nVolatility returned to uranium prices late in the third fiscal quarter of 2018 due to the announcement of further substantial cuts to global production in November 2017 \u2013 beginning with Cameco Corporation (\u201cCameco\u201d) announcing a minimum ten month shutdown of the McArthur River Mine/Key Lake Mill complex in Saskatchewan, Canada. Cameco\u2019s McArthur River/Key Lake operations represent the largest and highest-grade uranium mine in the world, producing approximately 18 million pounds of U3O8 annually. Following Cameco\u2019s announcement, National Atomic Company Kazatomprom (\u201cKazatomprom\u201d) made a further announcement regarding production restraint \u2013 outlining that production through 2020 would represent a 20% reduction in planned output from its operations in Kazakhstan. Following these announcements, the spot price of U3O8 increased again, reaching a high of US$26.50 per pound U3O8 in December 2017, before retreating to US$21.25 per pound U3O8 by the end of fiscal 2018.\nWhile the Cameco and Kazatomprom supply curtailments have had an impact on the spot price, it has not been sustained. The impact of the curtailments from a global production standpoint, however, is quite significant. According to UxC data, global production peaked in calendar 2016 at 162 million pounds of U3O8, then fell in calendar 2017 to 154 million pounds U3O8, and this trend is expected to continue in calendar 2018 with the latest forecasts of total production dropping to 141 million U3O8. To put this in perspective, UxC expects annual uranium reactor requirements (UxC\u2019s Requirement\u2019s Model \u201cURM\u201d Base Demand) in calendar 2018 to be in the range of 194 million pounds U3O8. The rationalization on the supply side was long needed, however, higher priced long-term supply contracts were protecting much of the higher cost mine production from exposure to spot price levels in the US$20 per pound U3O8 range. As many of these legacy contracts are now expiring, the rate and degree of production cutbacks has finally accelerated, and these curtailments are expected to result in the drawdown of excess uranium supplies in the market, and ultimately an accelerated rebalancing of uranium market fundamentals.\nA recent market development which could be preventing the U.S. utilities from entering into a new cycle of significant uranium contracting, is the Section 232 Trade petition recently filed by two U.S. uranium producers before the U.S. Department of Commerce. This provision of the U.S. Trade Act of 1962 was successfully pursued by U.S. producers of aluminum and steel in response to levels of foreign imports that were viewed to be negatively impacting U.S. national security. The Trump Administration has imposed tariffs on the import of both commodities, although some nations (including Canada and Mexico) have been provided exemptions. It is still too early to predict how the U.S. Department of Commerce will respond to the uranium Section 232 trade petition, and what (if any) remedies would be applied in the case of uranium imports. For greater context, U.S. domestically mined uranium accounted for approximately 5% of U.S. uranium requirements in calendar 2017, and it is expected that U.S. production will decline further in 2018.\nOn the demand side of the uranium market, fundamentals continue to trend positive. Many nations today, particularly in the emerging markets, struggle with the need to deliver reliable and affordable electricity to their growing populations, without compounding climate change and air pollution challenges. As such, nuclear energy, with its reliability and clean air benefits, is filling an important role in the supply of baseload power around the world. Measured in new nuclear capacity connected to the grid, the calendar years 2015 and 2016 were the best two years in the past twenty-five. Reactor start-ups in calendar 2017 declined slightly from those levels, however the trend of increasing nuclear capacity appears to be continuing. For example, the Chinese government recently announced that in calendar 2018 it would be connecting a further five reactors to the grid, and that construction will commence on six to eight additional units. In addition, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is advancing its nuclear energy plans, having commenced reactor procurement discussions with supplier countries, and the United Arab Emirates is rapidly nearing the completion of their four reactor construction program, with the first unit expected to be connected to the grid in calendar 2018.\nThe recovery of the Japanese nuclear energy industry post-Fukushima continued to gain momentum in calendar 2017 with seven reactors in operation and a further two more likely to restart in calendar 2018. This is in line with recently re-elected Japanese Prime Minister Abe\u2019s stated goal to utilize nuclear power to supply between 20% and 22% of electricity needs going forward.\nIn the United States, with the closure of six nuclear power plants in recent years, there has been a growing recognition of the value of the 24/7 baseload, carbon-free energy source. Three states, New York, Illinois and Connecticut, are preserving their nuclear-power generating capacity by passing legislation to level the playing field for nuclear, and three additional states, Pennsylvania, Ohio and New Jersey, are considering similar legislative action. The U.S. federal government also continues to stress the negative impact on the reliability and resilience of the country\u2019s national grid from the potential loss of additional nuclear capacity. A recent Department of Energy Grid Reliability Study and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission have both pointed to the need for changes to current market structures. With respect to new reactor construction in the U.S., the two Vogtle units in Georgia have resumed construction following the Westinghouse bankruptcy restructuring, while construction of the two Summer units in South Carolina remain suspended.\nAs of March 2018, the World Nuclear Association (\u201cWNA\u201d) reported 448 reactors operable worldwide with 57 new reactors under construction, 158 reactors planned or on order, and another 351 proposed. These numbers are, incidentally, higher than those existing prior to Fukushima. Translated into uranium demand, UxC projects their URM Base Demand to range from 174 to 210 million pounds annually over the period from 2018 to 2035.\nAt April 5, 2018, there were 132,448,713 common shares issued and outstanding. There are no stock options or other equity instruments issued and outstanding.\nUranium Participation Corporation is a company that invests substantially all of its assets in uranium oxide in concentrates (\u201cU3O8\u201d) and uranium hexafluoride (\u201cUF6\u201d) (collectively \"uranium\"), with the primary investment objective of achieving appreciation in the value of its uranium holdings through increases in the uranium price.

        "raw_content": "(Imagine lyrics \u00a9 Downtown Music Publishing)\nWhen John Lennon penned his song \u201cImagine,\u201d he captured in 131 words not only the spirit of naturalism but also humanism. He cast an inspiring vision of a world without God, but he left unanswered the questions that atheism must explain about the natural world.\nAtheism must account for the origin of nature.\nSince there\u2019s a big bang, then it\u2019s fair to ask: Who or what lit the fuse?\nAnd it\u2019s fair to ask: Isn\u2019t it circular to appeal to nature as the explanation of nature?\nThe origin of nature needs an explanation.\nAtheism must account for the fine tuning of the universe.\nAstronomer Fred Hoyle, himself an atheist, wrote: \u201cA common sense interpretation of the facts suggests that a superintellect has monkeyed with physics, as well as with chemistry and biology, and that there are no blind forces worth speaking about in nature. The numbers one calculates from the facts seem to me so overwhelming as to put this conclusion almost beyond question\u201d (Fred Hoyle, The Universe: Past and Present Reflections. Engineering and Science, November, 1981. pp. 8\u201312).\nChance or necessity are insufficient explanations for the fine tuning of our universe.\nAtheism must account for the information that makes life possible.\nAt least two very different things compose a DNA molecule: 1) The A-T-C-G molecules; and 2) the information contained therein.\nThink of a CD. A CD is made of a base layer made of a polycarbonate plastic, a thin layer of aluminum coating over the polycarbonate plastic, and a clear protective acrylic coating over the aluminum layer. The information on a CD is etched onto its surface with a series of pits in just the right sequence. And that information is not contained in the properties of the aluminum, plastic and acrylic. It comes from a different source.\nBill Gates says: \u201cDNA is like a computer program but far, far more advanced than any software ever created\u201d (Gates, The Road Ahead, Penguin: London, Revised, 1996 p. 228).\nWhere does the information that makes life possible come from? The atheist must provide an explanation.\nAtheism must account for biological complexity.\nThis is easy. Some may think.\nHowever, in Darwin\u2019s day, it may have been easier to imagine evolution as the explanation of the complexity of life. But we now know that a single cell contains many molecular machines that are far more complex than anything Darwin imagined. This presents a problem for evolution.\nBiochemist Michael Behe writes: \u201cIf you search the scientific literature on evolution, and if you focus your search on the question of how molecular machines\u2013the basis of life\u2013 developed, you find an eerie and complete silence. The complexity of life\u2019s foundation has paralyzed science\u2019s attempt to account for it; molecular machines raise an as-yet-impenetrable barrier to Darwinism\u2019s universal reach\u201d (Darwin\u2019s Black Box: The Biochemical Challenge to Evolution, 1996.)\nAnd another biochemist, Michael Denton, writes: \u201cMolecular biology has shown that even the simplest of all living systems on the earth today, bacterial cells, are exceedingly complex objects. Although the tiniest bacterial cells are incredibly small, weighing less than 10-12 gms, each is in effect a veritable micro-miniaturized factory containing thousands of exquisitely designed pieces of intricate molecular machinery, made up altogether of one hundred thousand million atoms, far more complicated than any machine built by man and absolutely without parallel in the nonliving world\u201d (Evolution: A Theory In Crisis).\nThis intricate complexity at the very foundations of life poses a huge problem for any naturalistic explanation of the origin of life. The simplest cell is complex assembly of organelles that are dependent upon one another to function.\nAtheism must account for the abrupt appearance of biological diversity.\nIn the Cambrian explosion some 530 million years ago, many animals suddenly appeared in the fossil record without apparent ancestors. This abrupt appearance of nearly all the animal phyla on earth poses a problem for the Darwinist.\nStephen C. Meyer writes: \u201cIf Darwin is right, Agassiz argued, then we should find not just one or a few missing links, but innumerable links shading almost imperceptibly from alleged ancestors to presumed descendants. Geologists, however, had found no such myriad of transitional forms leading to the Cambrian fauna. Instead, the stratigraphic column seemed to document the abrupt appearance of the earliest animals\u201d (Darwin\u2019s Doubt: The Explosive Origin of Animal Life and the Case for Intelligent Design.).\nThis sudden occurrence of a wide range of living organisms needs explanation.\nAtheism must account for the fact that human beings are thinking things.\nFrom the naturalist\u2019s perspective natural processes operating within the rigid laws of science account for all phenomena, including thought. This poses an array of problems for the materialist.\nDoes matter think? Is matter self-aware? Does matter have emotions? Does matter choose?\nAtheist philosopher Thomas Nagel writes: \u201cMaterialism is incomplete even as a theory of the physical world, since the physical world includes conscious organisms among its most striking occupants\u201d (Mind and Cosmos: Why the Materialist Neo-Darwinian Conception of Nature Is Almost Certainly False, p.39.).\nNagel gives us a window into his psychology when he writes: \u201cI want atheism to be true and am made uneasy by the fact that some of the most intelligent and well-informed people I know are religious believers. It isn\u2019t just that I don\u2019t believe in God and, naturally, I hope that I\u2019m right in my belief. It\u2019s that I hope there is no God! I don\u2019t want there to be a God; I don\u2019t want the universe to be like that.\u201d(The Last Word, Oxford University Press, 1997, pp. 130-131.).\nIf atheism is true, it runs into all sorts of problems explaining not only aspects of our own being but also the world in which we live in, as well at the the existence of the universe itself.\nClick this link for a video presentation of this material.",

        "raw_content": "Israel Seeks Ways To Silence\nNazareth: In a bid to staunch the flow of damaging evidence of war crimes committed during Israel\u2019s winter assault on Gaza, the Israeli government has launched a campaign to clamp down on human rights groups, both in Israel and abroad.\nIt has begun by targeting one of the world\u2019s leading rights organisations, the US-based Human Rights Watch (HRW), as well as a local group of dissident army veterans, Breaking the Silence, which last month published the testimonies of 26 combat soldiers who served in Gaza.\nAdditionally, according to the Israeli media, the government is planning a \u201cmuch more aggressive stance\u201d towards human rights groups working to help the Palestinians.\nOfficials have questioned the sources of funding received by the organisations and threatened legislation to ban support from foreign governments, particularly in Europe.\nBreaking the Silence and other Israeli activists have responded by accusing the government of a \u201cwitch hunt\u201d designed to intimidate them and starve them of the funds needed to pursue their investigations.\n\u201cThis is a very dangerous step,\u201d said Mikhael Mannekin, one of the directors of Breaking the Silence. \u201cIsrael is moving in a very anti-democratic direction.\u201d\nThe campaign is reported to be the brainchild of the far-right foreign minister, Avigdor Lieberman, currently facing corruption charges, but has the backing of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.\nEarly last month, Mr Lieberman used a press conference to accuse non-government organisations, or NGOs, of replacing diplomats in setting the international community\u2019s agenda in relation to Israel. He also threatened reforms to curb the groups\u2019 influence.\nA week later, Mr Netanyahu\u2019s office weighed in against Human Rights Watch, heavily criticising the organisation for its recent fund-raising activities in Saudi Arabia.\nHRW has pointed out that it only accepts private donations, and has not accepted Saudi government funds, but Israeli officials say all Saudi money is tainted and will compromise HRW\u2019s impartiality as a human rights watchdog in its treatment of Israel.\n\u201cA human rights organisation raising money in Saudi Arabia is like a women\u2019s rights group asking the Taliban for a donation,\u201d Mark Regev, a government spokesman, told the right-wing Israeli daily newspaper the Jerusalem Post.\nHRW recently published reports arguing that the Israeli army had committed war crimes in Gaza, including the use of white phosphorus and attacking civilian targets.\nHRW is now facing concerted pressure from Jewish lobby groups and from leading Jewish journalists in the US to sever its ties with Saudi donors. According to the Israeli media, some Jewish donors in the US have also specified that their money be used for human rights investigations that do not include Israel.\nMeanwhile, Israel\u2019s foreign ministry is putting pressure on European governments to stop funding many of Israel\u2019s human rights groups. As a prelude to a clampdown, it has issued instructions to all its embassies abroad to question their host governments about whether they fund such activities.\nLast week the foreign ministry complained to British, Dutch and Spanish diplomats about their support for Breaking the Silence.\nThe testimonies collected from soldiers suggested the Israeli army had committed many war crimes in Gaza, including using Palestinians as human shields and firing white phosphorus shells over civilian areas. One soldier called the army\u2019s use of firepower \u201cinsane\u201d.\nThe Dutch government paid nearly 20,000 euros to the group to compile its Gaza report, while Britain funded its work last year to the tune of \u00a340,000.\nIsraeli officials are reported to be discussing ways either to make it illegal for foreign governments to fund \u201cpolitical\u201d organisations in Israel or to force such groups to declare themselves as \u201cagents of a foreign government\u201d.\n\u201cJust as it would be unacceptable for European governments to support anti-war NGOs in the US, it is unacceptable for the Europeans to support local NGOs opposed to the policies of Israel\u2019s democratically elected government,\u201d said Ron Dermer, a senior official in Mr Netanyahu\u2019s office.\nHe added that many of the groups were \u201cworking to delegitimise the Jewish state\u201d.\nJeff Halper, the head of the Israeli Committee Against House Demolitions, said the government\u2019s position was opposed to decades-old developments in human rights monitoring.\n\u201cEvery dictator, from Hitler to Milosevic, has said that there must be no interference in their sovereign affairs, and that everyone else should butt out. But international law says human rights are universal and cannot be left to individual governments to interpret. The idea behind the Geneva Conventions is that the international community has a duty to be the watchdog on human rights abuses wherever they occur.\u201d\nMr Halper, whose organisation last year received 80,000 euros from Spain to rebuild demolished Palestinian homes, was arrested last year for sailing to Gaza with peace activists to break the siege of Gaza.\nOther groups reported to be in the foreign ministry\u2019s sights are: B\u2019Tselem, whose activities include providing Palestinians with cameras to record abuses by settlers and the army; Peace Now, which monitors settlement building; Machsom Watch, whose activists observe soldiers at the checkpoints; and Physicians for Human Rights, which has recently examined doctors\u2019 complicity in torture.\nThe government\u2019s new approach mirrors a long-running campaign against leftwing and Arab human rights groups inside Israel conducted by NGO Monitor, a rightwing lobby group led by Gerald Steinberg, a professor at Bar Ilan University, near Tel Aviv.\nNGO Monitor has also targeted international organisations such as Oxfam and Amnesty, but has shown a particular obsession with HRW. Mr Steinberg recently boasted that HRW\u2019s trip to Saudi Arabia in May reflected the loss of major Jewish sponsors in the US following the publication of its Gaza reports.\nIn an article in the Jerusalem Post on Sunday, Mr Steinberg claimed that European governments treated their funding of Israeli human rights organisations \u201cas \u2018top secret\u2019, reflecting the realization that such activities lack legitimacy\u201d.\nMr Mannekin said the Breaking the Silence report listed donors on the first page. \u201cWe are far more transparent than NGO Monitor. We don\u2019t know who funds them.\u201d\nNGO Monitor, which according to its website is chiefly funded by the shadowy Wechsler Family Foundation in the US, is closely linked to Dore Gold, a hawkish former adviser to Ariel Sharon.\nMr Mannekin added: \u201cThe government cannot suppress information about what happened in Gaza by shutting us down. You can\u2019t send 10,000 soldiers into battle and not expect that some of the details will come out. If it\u2019s not us doing it, it\u2019ll be someone else.\u201d\nThe government\u2019s current campaign follows a police raid on the homes of six Israeli women peace activists in April.\nThe women, all members of New Profile, a feminist organisation that opposes the militarisation of Israeli society, were arrested and accused of helping Israeli youngsters to evade the draft. The women are still waiting to learn whether they will be prosecuted.",

        "title": "Close Guantanamo and Return It to Cuba",
        "raw_content": "President Barack Obama has yet to fulfill the promise he made in his January 22, 2009 executive order to shutter Guantanamo \u201cno later than one year from the date of this order.\u201d Any individuals remaining there at the time of closure, Obama wrote, \u201cshall be returned to their home country, released, transferred to a third country, or transferred to another United States detention facility in a manner consistent with law and the national security and foreign policy interests of the United States.\u201d\nAfter threatening to veto the final draft of the annual National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) partly because it forbids the transfer of Guantanamo detainees to the United States and tightens barriers to sending them to other countries, Obama caved. A White House spokesperson said Obama would sign the legislation, which passed overwhelmingly in the House and Senate. Bernie Sanders was one of three senators to vote against the bill.\nNearly seven years after Obama\u2019s promise, 112 men remain at Guantanamo, half of whom have been cleared for release. Obama has released 54 prisoners and is reviewing the cases of others still being held.\nIn March 2011, Obama designated 46 men to remain in indefinite detention without trial, but promised periodic review of their cases. Arbitrary detention violates the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, a treaty the United States has ratified, making it part of U.S. law under the Supremacy Clause of the U.S. constitution.\nThe periodic reviews didn\u2019t start until November 2013, spurred by hunger strikes at the prison. The reviews continue to be conducted. As a result of those reviews, 14 additional men were cleared for release and five of them have been released.\nIn April 2013, Obama said, \u201cI think it is critical for us to understand that Guantanamo is not necessary to keep America safe . . . It hurts us in terms of our international standing . . . It is a recruitment tool for extremists. It needs to be closed.\u201d Yet it remains open.\nOne of the transfer restrictions required the secretary of defense to notify Congress 30 days before transfer that it would be good for national security. But to avoid being personally responsible if a detainee were to become a terrorist, former Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel hesitated to allow transfers. Actually only seven percent of the detainees released during Obama\u2019s tenure returned to terrorist activity as compared with 19 percent during Bush\u2019s presidency.\nObama is reportedly preparing a plan to speed up transfers of half the remaining Guantanamo prisoners to their home countries or other willing nations. The plan will also set forth new security protocols to prevent detainees from returning to terrorist activities once released.\nMilitary experts are conducting surveys of prisons in the United States for possible transfer of detainees. They include the military prison at Ft. Leavenworth, Kansas; the Naval Consolidated Brig in Charleston, South Carolina; and the US supermax prison in Florence, Colorado.\nIn spite of the NDAA, Obama has the power to close Guantanamo. Former White House counsel Gregory Craig and Cliff Sloan, former special envoy for Guantanamo closure, maintain, \u201cthe president does not need Congress\u2019s authorization to act.\u201d They wrote in the Washington Post, \u201cUnder Article II of the Constitution, the president has exclusive authority to determine the facilities in which military detainees are held . . . The determination on where to hold detainees is a tactical judgment at the very core of the president\u2019s role as commander in chief.\u201d\nAccording to Craig and Sloan, \u201cCongress\u2019s purported ban on funding any movement of detainees from Guantanamo Bay to the United States restricts where \u2018law-of-war\u2019 detainees can be held and prevents the president from discharging his constitutionally assigned function of making tactical military decisions. Accordingly, it violates the separation of powers.\u201d\nLt. Col. David Frakt, who has represented Guantanamo detainees before the military commissions and in federal habeas corpus proceedings, concurs. \u201cWhen the Obama administration really wants to transfer a detainee, they are quite capable of doing so,\u201d Frakt wrote in JURIST. He said Obama should direct his attorney general to inform the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals that the Department of Justice no longer considers the cleared detainees to be detainable.\nCol. Morris Davis, former Chief Prosecutor for the Terrorism Trials at Guantanamo, personally charged Osama bin Laden\u2019s driver Salim Hamdan, Australian David Hicks, and Canadian teen Omar Khadr. All three were convicted and have been released from Guantanamo. \u201cThere is something fundamentally wrong with a system where not being charged with a war crime keeps you locked away indefinitely and a war crime conviction is your ticket home,\u201d Davis wrote to Obama.\nOf the 780 men held at Guantanamo since 2002, only eight were tried and convicted of war crimes. Of those, just three remain at Guantanamo.\nMany of the detainees reported being assaulted, prolonged shackling, sexual abuse, and threats with dogs. Australian lawyer Richard Bourke, who has represented several Guantanamo detainees, charged they have been subjected to \u201cgood old-fashioned torture.\u201d Detainees who engage in hunger strikes are subjected to force-feeding, a practice the UN Human Rights Council has called torture or cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment. At least seven men have died at the prison camp.\nThe United States has illegally occupied Guant\u00e1namo since 1903, after Cuba\u2019s war of independence against Spain. Cuba was forced to include the Platt Amendment in the Cuban constitution. The amendment granted the United States the right to intervene in Cuba as a prerequisite for the withdrawal of US troops from the rest of Cuba. That provision provided the basis for the 1903 Agreement on Coaling and Naval Stations, which gave the United States the right to use Guant\u00e1namo Bay \u201cexclusively as coaling or naval stations, and for no other purpose.\u201d\nPresident Franklin D. Roosevelt signed a new treaty with Cuba in 1934 that allows the United States to remain in Guant\u00e1namo Bay until the US abandons it or until both Cuba and the United States agree to modify their arrangement. According to that treaty, \u201cthe stipulations of [the 1903] agreement with regard to the naval station of Guant\u00e1namo shall continue in effect.\u201d That means Guant\u00e1namo Bay can be used for nothing but coaling or naval stations. Article III of the 1934 treaty also says that Cuba leases Guant\u00e1namo Bay to the United States \u201cfor coaling and naval stations.\u201d Nowhere in either treaty did Cuba give the US the right to utilize Guant\u00e1namo Bay as a prison camp.\nFormer Cuban president Fidel Castro has long maintained that Guantanamo is part of Cuba and that the US illegally occupies it. One of Cuban President Raul Castro\u2019s requirements for normalization of relations with the United States is the return of Guantanamo to Cuba.\nIf there is probable cause to believe a detainee committed a crime, he should be sent to the United States for trial in federal court. The remaining detainees should be returned to their countries of origin or third countries if that is not feasible. After shuttering the prison camp, Obama should return Guantanamo Bay to Cuba, its rightful owner.\nThis article was originally published by teleSUR.\nMore articles by:Marjorie Cohn\nMarjorie Cohn is professor emerita at Thomas Jefferson School of Law and former president of the National Lawyers Guild.

        "title": "Being Inconvenienced While Minding My Own Business: Liberals and the Social Contract Theory of Violence",
        "raw_content": "Being Inconvenienced While Minding My Own Business: Liberals and the Social Contract Theory of Violence\nAre \u201cbystanders\u201d to violent events neutral or complicit?\nIn the past couple of weeks I\u2019ve read a number of articles about police violence and citizens reaction to that violence. Most of these articles rightly point to the structural roots of police violence. However, I have found little written about how the people who are not directly involved in confrontations, \u201cbystanders\u201d, make sense of what is going on. How do people react to either police shooting citizens, citizens shooting the police or to the protests against police violence? Do people who seemed not directly involved in the violence constitute a neutral force or do they have some responsibility for what happens? I soon found how these bystanders thought about it, but not in the manner of my own choosing.\nMy controversial Facebook post\nAlmost two weeks ago one of my Facebook friends posted an aerial view of about 1,000 protesters in Oakland moving towards highway 880 to block traffic in reaction to the killing of Alton Sterling and Philando Castile. In my post I congratulated the protesters for their collective-creative courage in stepping out onto speeding traffic and stopping it. I said we need more of this until the entire road system is clogged. I also pointed out of the relatively recent existence of police departments (second half of the 19th century) and for most of human history societies managed without them.\nSince the original post was linked to KRON news, many more people saw my post than my normal networks of people. In a single day, I received over 2,000 responses. The good news for me, and what I suspect are most of the readers of leftist new sources, is that close to 80% \u201cliked\u201d what I said. Now for those of you not initiated into the mysteries of Facebook, \u201clikes\u201d don\u2019t tell you much about the thinking processes of people, but I see it as better than having no information at all.\nHowever, I want to focus on the responses of the 500 or so people that had commented. Most of these comments were hostile. Those who were hostile, but intelligent (meaning they explained why they were upset) can be divided into those who were put off because they were inconvenienced and thought I was insensitive to that. Then there were those who couldn\u2019t imagine doing without the police and that I was completely unrealistic in claiming that a society could exist without them. I want to focus on how their hostility is connected to a liberal, social contract theory of violence.\nA liberal theory of violence\nMost people in the United States think that social life operates as social contracts, just Hobbes, Locke and Rousseau described it. Secondly, they think normal social life is neutral and non-violent. Violence, they believe, begins at the point of a physical confrontation between people and usually includes lethal weapons. If there is no physical confrontation, there is no violence. So, for example, at a demonstration when the protesters are gathered and listening to speeches and the police are present, but simply talking to each other, these folks would say there is no violence. For a liberal theory of violence the point where violence begins is when the police either use billy clubs, tear gas or Tasers on the protesters, or when the protesters start throwing rocks at the police or through bank windows. If neither of these things occurred, bystanders and the media deem the demonstration \u201cpeaceful\u201d.\nIn the case of the protesters blocking the freeway, the police forcing them off the freeway and the protesters resisting the police, these would be claimed to be acts of violence. However the people patiently waiting for the cops to get the protesters off the freeway, these bystanders are not being violent. So in other words the world is composed of three groups: cops on the one hand; protesters, criminals or deviants on the other; and the neutral public as bystanders.\nThis liberal theory of violence is grounded in the social contract theory of Hobbes and Locke. Hobbes, Locke and Rousseau (whom I\u2019ll discuss later) were very different politically, but they all agreed that individuals were autonomous, self-subsisting beings who entered into social relations as a result of a \u201ccontract\u201d. Interactions between individuals were voluntary, accidental and associative. Contracts or compacts were made only after the individual shrewdly weighed the costs and benefits of joining an association \u2013 as opposed to remaining alone.\nMinding my own business: a Lockean theory of violence\nThe first of two major complaints against my post was that people were minding their own business. \u201cWhy should we be inconvenienced with something that has nothing to do with us? Even if the police were wrong to kill these guys, what does that have to do with me? Why do I have to lose two hours out of my day over something that has nothing to do with me?\u201d This is a great example of the social contract operating. People imagine themselves as isolated monads who have families and jobs where their real social life is. Their membership in a social class, race, region or religion is a secondary matter. Primarily, they are individuals (or in Cross-Cultural Psychology terms, \u201cindividualists\u201d. But these individuals still enter the public zone where they walk, take public transportation or drive to get to work or go home. These Lockean individuals treat the public world as an instrumental way station between their real social world of home, family and work. How is public world engaged? The state of public bathrooms, increasing road rage and people crossing the street checking their cell phones, oblivious to cars making turns into their cross-walks are just the tip of an iceberg of the increasing contempt of public life in the United States. This is a world in which normal social responsibilities are generally disregarded or kept to a bare minimum. In the public world \u201cminding my own business\u201d is the code of public conduct.\nThe political and racial nature of being inconvenienced\nBeing inconvenienced is intolerable if you play by the rules of minding your own business. As I shall argue shortly, social contract theory has very little to do with the real requirements of social life and the deeply social nature of our identity among even those who complain about being inconvenienced. The same people who claim to be minding their own business and being inconvenienced generally are quite capable of dealing with the ups and downs of public life and making adjustments, depending on the occasion. As I said in one of my rebuttals to some Facebook posts,Top of Form yy you are inconvenienced all the time. You wait on lines to buy groceries longer then you\u2019d like because the stores are understaffed. You wait on lines for hours on Black Friday to get deals the day after Thanksgiving. You wait in traffic for hours before and after ball games. Maybe most importantly, you accept the inconvenience of stock market crashes which deplete your savings and threaten your pensions. For these things you have plenty of reasons as to why you shouldn\u2019t make a big deal about it. After all, what can you do? But when events are political and racially charged, for this \u2013 you will not put up with being inconvenienced.\nWhy don\u2019t people see this? Cross-cultural psychologists say that the United States is the most individualist society in the world. Part of being an individualist, as I\u2019ve said earlier, is that demographic membership \u2013 region, class, race \u2013 is generally not considered an important part of one\u2019s identity. Another characteristic of individualism is that history does not matter. As individualists, those minding their own business tend to downplay their class and racial identity and they can\u2019t understand why people are making such a big deal of these police killings. Because of their lack of appreciation of history, individualists can\u2019t imagine that things that have happened in the past matter today because they are still present within existing social structures. When I teach a class in social psychology or cross-cultural psychology I have my students answer questions about white privilege. Most of my white students are amazed at how much privilege they have without ever being aware of it. This privilege entitles people to \u201cmind their own business.\u201d\n\u201cWithout the police there would be anarchy\u201d: a Hobbesian theory of violence\nAs I said earlier part in my post, we could do very well without the police, not immediately, but in the long run. I pointed out that the police force was established in the 19th century, essentially to help capitalists combat an increasingly militant labor force. I pointed out that tribal societies and agricultural civilizations also had to keep most of their population safe and they did so without police forces. I also pointed out that in revolutionary situations, citizen militias were formed as people patrolled their own communities. For some people on the Facebook thread, this was incomprehensible. Specifically, they said that without the police there would be \u201canarchy\u201d. Thomas Hobbes couldn\u2019t have said it better. Their belief is that people are competitive, aggressive, greedy, full of insatiable appetites and that without state intervention (in this case the police) life would be nasty, brutish and short.\n\u201cGive Peace a Chance\u201d: A Rousseauism theory of non-violence\nBy far the most radical of the three social contract theorists was Rousseau. Rousseau had a more optimistic view of human beings than either Hobbes or Locke. Rousseau thought that people were basically good and that the state, private property or the trappings of civilization oppressed them. Rousseau believed the public was capable of participatory direct democracy. In spite of Rousseau attributing a more social nature to humanity, he also held that individuals voluntarily entered into a social contract and they were free to withdraw.\nUp to now I have only talked about social contract theory as it relates to violence. Now I want to suggest that even those who claim to be non-violent still operate using a social contract theory of society. Today, Rousseau\u2019s way of making sense of the relationship between individuals and society roughly corresponds to those liberals or anarchists who advocate \u201cnon-violence\u201d as a political strategy. Social contract theory is operating when those advocating non-violence imagine that they can choose to be non-violent. For these left-wing social contract theorists, violence begins at the point of forceful contact. If, during a demonstration, protesters stayed away from the police, or practiced civil disobedience, these liberals or anarchists would congratulate themselves on behaving in a non-violent way. At the point of contact, if the police act violently and the protesters don\u2019t resist, the protesters believe they are behaving in a non-violent way. They imagine that public social life is neutral and can remain neutral if the force of the state can be resisted.\nTowards a political economy theory of violence\nMarx and Durkheim are not alone in claiming that individuals are constitutionally social beings In social psychology, Lev Vygotsky, George Herbert Mead and Ivana Markova all say in their own ways that we are already always social. It is impossible not to be social. In fact they would say without being socialized you are not even human. So where does social contract theory come from? According to C.B. Macpherson, social contract theory is a product of the development of early capitalist society as a way to explain new market relations. But how might these social constitutionalist theories help us to understand the relationship between the police, protesters, deviants and bystanders? Read on.\nAll class societies are at their core, violent. In a society where oligarchs control the wealth and the lower classes are subjugated, violence is always the means of first or last resort. True, the ruling classes in history have used various types of propaganda to convince the lower classes why the upper classes deserved to be where they are and why the lower classes deserve to be where they are. But if all else fails, state repression is the result. In class societies state violence is always already the case. That means that even when the state (in our case the police) appears to do nothing, it already is violent because police have massive violent and lethal means at hand. \u201cOk\u201d you might say, \u201cbut where do the bystanders come into this?\u201d\nBy-standers on the freeway who think they are minding their own business and are inconvenienced pay taxes. Those taxes go into the production of violence from the factories where all the weapons are assembled and produced, to the places were the weapons are circulated as well as where they are distributed. When violent weapons are produced, these weapons are already violent, ready-at-hand to use. Secondly, these same citizens pay taxes, which are converted into the salaries of the cops. Furthermore, all the workers all the way down the supply chain from production, to circulation to distribution of weapons are also implicated in what the police do. For these workers it may just be a job, and they consciously live in their micro-world of family and friends, but behind their backs, they are part of a macro world. They are \u201csocially unconscious\u201d that they are also helping to produce violence. There is no such thing as people having a choice of whether or not to be violent. Everyone is more or less complicit.\nFor the Facebook critics that I\u2019m calling Hobbesians who say that without the police there would be anarchy, what I think they mean is that without the police people would be even more violent than they are already are. They seem to think the citizens without the police are more violent than the social life with the police. For them the police restore \u201cOrder\u201d. These folks think that normal public life with the police guarding over us is orderly and not violent. Rather than state violence being institutionalized to protect the upper classes, these Hobbesians think that the state is the great neutralizer, the great emulsifier that holds colliding monads from creating a war of all against all. Where might that way of thinking come from? Research shows that those who watch violent programs on television and in the movies repeatedly are more likely to imagine society as more violent than crime statistics show.\nLastly for those Rousseauians who want to give peace a chance, this is an impossible project while social classes continue to exist. The natural resources must be seized from the hands of the upper classes and redistributed to the middle class, working class and poor. These would certainly involve violent conflicts and it would take generations of resocialization to reduce the violence even in a socialist society. Those who meditate, do yoga attend non-violent workshops and practice civil disobedience still have jobs and pay taxes that fund the state machine of violence.\nViolence involves both force and coercion\nIn the field of social psychology there is a simple distinction made between force and coercion as power bases. Force is the direct application of lethal means of violence on human beings. This is what social contract and my Facebook critics mean by violence. What they are missing is that there is a second source of violence, which is coercion and is defined as the threat of the use of force with lethal means. This threat of force has to be produced by all the people who are working to produce the weapons and those who pay taxes to pay the workers to make the weapons. In other words, there is violence being produced in the process of making the weapons available even if they are never used.\nFirst, I am not suggesting that because I am calling my hostile audience \u201cliberal\u201d, that means that I think everyone posting was politically liberal. Liberal social contract theory operates as a theory of how society and the individual should be understood, based on living in a capitalist society. It is a framework that both liberals and conservatives accept no matter who is in power. Conservatives were won over to this somewhere in the middle of the 19th century when they realized that feudalism and the king were not coming back. This occurred at roughly the same time that they abandoned their organic hierarchical theory of society and the individual and slowly embraced social contract theory.\nLastly to those brave thousand people who stepped on the freeway in Oakland and risked their lives, I salute you and I hope more of these freeway closures happen as police violence continues. At the same time, to expect the people whose lives you stopped on the freeway to \u201cget it\u201d, that Black Lives Do Matter, the message needs to be more explicit. To assume people understand that they are complicit is na\u00efve. We have to meet people partly where they are and build bridges between where they are and where we are. Moralizing and screaming at people as they helplessly wait in their cars will have a boomerang effect. Showing people it is in their self-interest to join the fight against state violence is a much more practical course. This will not be easy. But something more than simply stopping traffic is required.\nMore articles by:Bruce Lerro\nBruce Lerro has taught for 25 years as an adjunct college professor of psychology at Golden Gate University, Dominican University and Diablo Valley College in the San Francisco Bay Area.

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb News/Views \u00bb Fall in nursing applications\nStudent nurses marching in 2016 against the introduction of bursaries. Predictions at the time that this would put off potential students have been shown to be right. Photo Workers.\nA further shortage of nurses in the NHS is looming, fuelled by an unfulfilled need to plan for and train staff. That\u2019s due to high fees and the loss of the student bursary in England, not Brexit. In the spring of 2016 Unison\u2019s then Head of Health, Christina McAnea, predicted that \u201cReplacing the bursary system with loans will put off many potential students, not encourage more people into our caring professions.\u201d And so it has proved for the nursing profession, according to recently released figures.\nData from the Universities and Colleges Admission Services show that the number of people in England applying to begin nursing degrees fell from 51,840 in 2016 to 35,260 in 2018 \u2013 a decline of over 30 per cent.\nFrom August 2017 students have had to take out loans to cover tuition fees of \u00a39,000 a year, and even more for subsistence. Nurses and midwives will pay the entire bill for their training, even though they spend half their training time working for the NHS on clinical placement.\nEarlier in the year there were signs of recognition that planning the NHS workforce \u2013 especially for nursing \u2013 needs to be rethought. The NHS in England published a draft workforce strategy, for the first time in 25 years, which stated that there had been historical failings in NHS workforce planning.\nCurrently you could be forgiven for thinking that all NHS workforce problems were due to Brexit. But the draft strategy said \u201c\u2026maximising the self-supply of our workforce is critical. It cannot be right for the NHS to draw staff from other countries in large numbers just because we have failed to plan and invest.\u201d Brexit had done a marvellous thing: it had made the NHS think seriously about workforce planning for the first time in decades.\nThe finalised workforce strategy was due to be published in July to coincide with the 70th anniversary of the NHS. What better birthday present could the NHS have had than a proper plan for, and investment in, the workforce? However, July and August have come and gone, with no sign of the new strategy. The latest figures for nursing applications make publication and action even more urgent.\nJohn Worth, a first-year student nurse, recently started a petition calling for students to be paid whilst on clinical placement. It has already attracted over 50,000 signatures, but the nursing profession can\u2019t rely on first-year students to do the fighting as that is a kind of exploitation too. As things stand, student nurses in England are paying to work. That deterrent is the most significant factor affecting the long-term supply of nurses.\nwww.cpbml.org.uk/news/fall-nursing-applications",

The automotive industry contributes significantly to the world GDP. The increasing demand for automobiles directly impacts the demand for related components such as automotive windshields. Moreover, countries such as China and India which has witnessed a significant rise in the demand for automobiles in recent years, a factor further contributing to the increasing demand for automotive windshields. In addition, windshields form an integral part of any vehicles considering the fact that it forms a critical safety component. Moreover, it performs the crucial function of protecting from debris, dust, UV rays and harmful radiation.\nOne of the most prominent factors complimenting the automotive windshields market growth is the rising motor vehicle production across the world. With increasing net disposable income and improving standard of living, people are in a better position to invest in buying cars. The aforementioned sentence is justified by the fact that the global motor vehicle production has continuously witnessed a year-on-year increase since 2010. In 2017, this growth was 2.36% over 2016. China and India in particular have remained in the forefront in this context, thanks chiefly to it expanding middle class population. Moreover, the fact that various automobile manufacturers are introducing new entry level cars and compact SUVs is further supporting this growth. Another important factor aiding the automotive windshields market growth is growing integration of technology into windshields. In recent years, it has been observed that technology integration in windshields has increased and the trend is expected to continue in the years to come. Some examples of technology integrated windshields include collision avoidance systems with a camera and radar located on the windshield, night vision with an infrared camera mounted on the windshield and windshield-embedded video sensors as part of the lane departure alert system among others.\nHowever, high cost of smart windshields is one of the restraints impacting the market growth negatively. Moreover, limited awareness among consumers pertaining to the benefits of smart windshields is another factor restricting the market growth.\nSome of the recent trends impacting the automotive windshield market include the application of smart windshields as ad billboard inside a car. For instance, Corning, Inc. has plans to offer carmakers the same glass that is used in Apple iPhones for windshields. Similarly, windshields that can be used as video screens are under development. These windshields once developed will be capable of playing targeted localized information.\nGlobal Automotive Windshields Market is segmented into the following categories:\nKey Players Identified in the automotive windshields market include but are not limited to:\nNippon Sheet Glass, Saint-Gobain, Fuyao Glass, Asahi Glass, Vitro, Xinyi Glass, Dura Automotive, Sisecam Group, Magna International, Guardian Industries and Central Glass among others.",

This morning, I saw Bob Stein, one of the original founders of Criterion, in New York magazine, being interviewed for his fashion sense. And the other night, both actresses in the stage musical of Grey Gardens (spine no. 123), Mary Louise Wilson and Christine Ebersole, won Tony Awards for their performances. As Little Edie, Ebersole won for best leading actress in a musical, beating out Donna Murphy, who plays Lotte Lenya in LoveMusik, which concerns the love affair between Lenya and composer Kurt Weill. Their shared breakthrough came with Bertolt Brecht and Weill's The Threepenny Opera. Pabst's film of Threepenny, featuring Lenya, is soon to be spine no. 405 in the Criterion collection. And last week, Middlesex author Jeffrey Eugenides wrote a beautiful piece in the New Yorker\u2019s summer fiction issue about his mother taking him to see Walkabout (Spine no. 10) as a kid, neither of them having any idea what they were going to see.\nAnd, of course, there was the Cannes sixtieth-anniversary tribute film, Chacun son cin\u00e9ma, for which thirty-three filmmakers each contributed a three-minute short evoking something essential about cinema. The film was stuffed with references to the warhorses of world cinema, so there were plenty of spine numbers in evidence, but no reference came as a bigger surprise than the presence, in the Coen brothers' segment, of not one but two posters for the Essential Art House retrospective that has been going around as a celebration of Janus Films\u2019 fiftieth anniversary. One features Jules and Jim (spine no. 281), the other The Seventh Seal (spine no. 11). Both are clearly visible through most of the film, as a cowboy who doesn't know his way around art-house cinema chooses between The Rules of the Game (spine no. 216) and a Turkish film called Climates that Zeitgeist brought out this year. No one could have been prouder than we\u2014except maybe Zeitgeist. Spoiler alert: the cowboy picks Climates.",

        "raw_content": "Debt collectors have few restrictions and perverse incentives to use extreme measures on debtors. Here are five of the worst abuses by debt collectors.\nMelanie Stetson Freeman/Staff/AP\nIn this 2009 file photo, Stephanie Maple of Atlanta kept notes about calls she got concerning debt collection on a debt her husband doesn't remember having. A debt collector illegally told her they would take her house and put her husband in jail if they didn't pay an old debt.\nWhen a story emerges about egregious behavior in a profession, it\u2019s always important to ask: \u201cIs this an isolated case or widespread practice? In the case of the debt-collection industry, the verdict is in: A tsunami of abusive practices is hitting thousands and sometimes millions of Americans and there\u2019s no sign of a let-up.\nHounded by predatory debt-collection agencies after the failure of our oil-related business, my wife, Kathy, and I created a debt-collection company to do things differently. For starters, we treat people with respect even if they are going through hard times. That\u2019s why it pains me to see my industry continue to abuse people when there\u2019s a much better way. Here\u2019s a look at five dimensions of that abuse and why the problem is so massive:\n1. \u201cScorched earth\u201d threats\nThese cases go way beyond what\u2019s needed to prod someone to pay their debts, like the one involving a Belleville, Ill., woman who was behind on a debt around the time that her daughter died. A debt collector called to say that she better pay up, or he would dig up her dead daughter and hang her from a tree. In another case, a 10-year-old girl from Osceola County, Fla., answered the phone and a debt collector identified himself as an \u201cofficer.\u201d He said: \u201cYou better kiss your daddy good-bye. He\u2019s going to be arrested tomorrow or the next day.\u201d\nNot only are these threats obscene, they\u2019re common: The Federal Trade Commission received more than 164,000 complaints in 2011 about debt collectors. That doesn\u2019t count complaints to other agencies at the federal and state levels, or the much larger group that is too afraid or embarrassed to complain.\n2. Convicted felons in a position of power and access\nAs consumers, we\u2019re warned to be careful with our financial information because of identity theft. But what if criminals have access to confidential financial data all day long? One debt-collection company in Minnesota reportedly had at least 81 employees with felony or gross misdemeanor convictions between 2005 to 2010. In another case, a convicted felon was hired as a debt collector and\u2014surprise!\u2014she stole credit-card data and went on a buying spree.\nSometimes criminals hit the jackpot and get to wear badges. In Massachusetts, many debts are collected by state-appointed constables, who carry badges and batons and can literally knock on a citizen\u2019s door at midnight, demanding payment. A 2006 review of records by the Boston Globe indicated that 87 constables had criminal arrest records.\n3. Record-keeping that\u2019s somewhere between negligent and criminal\nWhen you pay off a debt, you\u2019d think that fact might be recorded somewhere. In the debt-collection business, such details apparently are optional. A Minnesota woman paid off her $260 debt but the collection company couldn\u2019t be bothered to record that fact after they cashed her check. Over the next decade she battled other collection agencies to which her account had been sold and her original $260 grew with interest to $5,818 before she finally prevailed. In 2008, a bankruptcy trustee in Massachusetts accused one debt collector of trying 5,600 times to collect on debts that had already been wiped out through bankruptcy proceedings.\nThe record-keeping problem is widespread enough that it prompted Minnesota Attorney General Lori Swanson to file suit against Midland Funding, a debt collector. She said: \u201cThis company has a history of targeting people and assuming they owe them money until the citizen can show they don\u2019t owe the money\u2026. It really flips the process on its head because a debt collector or debt buyer shouldn\u2019t be targeting anybody for payment of a bill unless they substantiate that a person actually owes the money.\u201d\n4. Extracting money from grieving relatives\nWhat are the right words to say to a person who\u2019s just suffered the loss of a spouse? If you\u2019re a debt collector, it\u2019s simple: \u201cYou can pay by check or money order.\u201d A Florida woman was struggling with the loss of her husband when the debt collector called. Even though she was not legally obligated to pay her husband\u2019s bill, that did not prevent the collector from hounding her up to 10 times a day. One consumer-rights attorney, William Howard, observed: \u201cCollectors are starting to realize just how much money you can get from someone when they are at their most vulnerable.\u201d\n5. The profitable, perverted lawsuit mills\nRemember the \u201crobo-signing\u201d scandal, where some mortgage lenders were signing as many as 10,000 documents a month, claiming to know the circumstances of the borrowers? That\u2019s child\u2019s play compared to debt collectors, some of whom sign 4,000 lawsuit documents per day. It\u2019s only the first step in a brilliant, ruthless system to get courts to do the dirty work for debt collectors. For as little as $40, collectors can take those robo-signed documents and file suit electronically. Then they often send a plain letter by first-class mail, notifying people that they\u2019re being sued. In some areas, as many as 94 percent of defendants don\u2019t show up in court, either because they didn\u2019t realize they were being sued, or they\u2019re too scared. Of the ones who do appear, sometimes only 1 in 100 brings a lawyer.\nThe result? The gavel drops and a \u201cdefault judgment\u201d is issued. Now the debt collector can sit back and grin, because the court now sees to it that the collector is paid, using threats of wage garnishment, arrest, strip searches, and jail. In New York City, a study found that debt collectors filed more than 500,000 debt-related suits between January 2006 and July 2008.\nDebt collectors use these extreme methods because they\u2019re expedient. Instead of generating six- to seven-figure revenues by working with debtors over several years, they salivate at the prospect of eight-figure revenues they can bank immediately by intimidating and harassing debtors. Until these five areas of abuse are eliminated by regulators and our elected officials, debt collectors will continue to hold their premier position in the hall of shame.\nThe New Economy Impose a moratorium on debt collection lawsuits",

        "raw_content": "Drop in child labor points to progress for all children\nA stunning drop in child labor worldwide is one of several reports of progress that suggest a global shift in how children are viewed.\nChildren and freed child laborers in India participate in an Aug. 29 protest in New Delhi demanding passage of a child labor bill. The bill if passed would prohibit hazardous work for children under 18 and employment of children below 14.\nAdvocates for children sometimes deserve a pat on the back as much as the children they cheer on. The latest tribute to their efforts is a report from the International Labor Organization, an arm of the United Nations.\nThe ILO finds the number of children doing hazardous work has dropped by half since 2000. The total number of child laborers, either in dangerous jobs or simply working the family farm, has fallen by a third, from 215 million to 168 million.\nWhile the current number is still too high, the progress is remarkable in such a short period. It shows how humanity has embraced children in need on a global scale and how an idea \u2013 that children are sacred charges and necessary to ensure a better future for all \u2013 can quickly catch on.\nOf all the treaties on human rights, the Convention on the Rights of Children is the one ratified by the most nations. That has required a global shift in thinking. Instead of a 19th-century view of poor or abused children as charity cases, the world now sees them as having individual rights, ones that can be enforced either by law or public pressure.\nA related cause to child labor is the child sex trade. Since the early 1990s, private groups and the UN have partnered to push countries to curtail the trafficking of young people for sex. \u201cWe are now in a good position to ensure the full realization of the rights of children to live free from commercial sexual exploitation,\u201d states the latest report from ECPAT, a Thailand-based network of groups.\nGlobal Viewpoint Gordon Brown: Girls' empowerment movement is a global game-changer\nOne success is the adoption of \u201cThe Code,\u201d or rules used by travel businesses to curb sex tourism. And dozens of countries are now tracked in how well they enforce rules against child sex trafficking.\nOther progress is worthy of praise. Child mortality rates have been almost cut in half since 1990. And school attendance rates continue to rise worldwide.\nGirls are the targets of concern in two causes: child marriages and female genital mutilation. Global awareness of both problems has brought good results in a few countries. But the UN estimates about 37,000 girls are still married each day. And the ritual cutting of girls\u2019 genitals in the belief it protects the girls\u2019 virginity remains \u201cremarkably tenacious, despite attempts spanning nearly a century to eliminate it,\u201d states a UN report.\nNot every success story for children proves to be a model that can be easily transferred. Advocates find they still need the right mix of social change, money, and political will. Children\u2019s lives are also heavily influenced by progress in the economy, such as adoption of new technologies, or in the rule of law. The issue of using child soldiers in conflicts seems intractable.\nThe successes in lessening child labor picked up in the 1990s after multinational companies began to open up more factories in low-wage nations. Overseas sweatshops became a campus cause. Companies such as Nike were forced by activists to make sure their plants didn\u2019t employ underage workers. By 1999, trade rules in the West began to impose restrictions on imports of products from countries that used child labor \u2013 although the tactic can backfire if it keeps a country in poverty. And enforcement of child-labor laws must be accompanied by a general improvement in living conditions.\nWhen young children are forced to work by impoverished parents, they miss out on schooling, leading to the possibility that someday their children will be forced to work. One way nations break that cycle is by compulsory education. Such ideas are clearly taking root as the world accepts an expanded view of the worth of each child.\nOpinion How Apple, Foxconn, and others can address labor abuses in overseas factories\nBy Elizabeth Umlas\nOpinion What this feminist and child-marriage proponents have in common\nThe Monitor's View Child marriage and the Warren Jeffs polygamist trial",

        "raw_content": "An organ school supports the liturgy in Lebanon\nThe pipe organ is the king of musical instruments, and it is the largest, as well as the one that has the task of solemnly accompanying liturgies in churches. For this reason, the Custody of the Holy Land, which has always been active in the field of musical education, has made it a point to teach this instrument, especially at the Magnificat Institute in Jerusalem. In Lebanon, the Custody of the Holy Land supports the organ course organized by the music school at Notre Dame University, which on June 28, welcomed its first students\u2014the first in Lebanon\u2019s history\u2014to take a level examination, four years after the school was established. Since there is no organ teacher in Lebanon, the teacher came from Italy, thanks to the collaboration with the Italian Cultural Institute of Beirut and the support of the Franciscan Monastery of the Holy Land in the United States. The music teacher is Prof. Cosimo Prontera, the organ teacher at the Conservatory of Potenza.\n\u201cOur goal,\u201d explained Br. Ricciani Ceriani, the Delegate of the Custos of the Holy Land for Music, \u201cis to train organists and organ teachers, in order to activate the teaching of this instrument where it is lacking, and thus create access to organists to serve our churches and our choirs. The first fruits of this project will be seen Syria. Thanks to an agreement with the Custody, two teachers from the Higher Institute of Music in Damascus have perfected their skills by attending our course in Lebanon and now organ classes can begin in Syria. Moreover, all of civil society benefits from this, by increasing awareness and the musical repertoire linked to the organ. This could be seen with the success of the Terra Sancta Organ Festival in Lebanon, Syria and in all of the other countries where the Custody is present and where the festival takes place.\u201d\nIn Lebanon, the creator of this project is Fr. Khalil Rahme, a Maronite monk and director of the Music School at Notre Dame University.\n\u201cThis project would not have been possible without the collaboration of the Italian Cultural Institute of Beirut (IICB), not just for their economic support, but also for sharing our mission: it was the IICB, at our invitation, that identified and requested to have Prof. Prontera come, and this collaboration has continued with all of the directors who have succeeded him. My dream is that in the near future, the main parishes and churches will have resident organists, and support staff, as they do in Germany, in the United States and other places.\u201d\n\u201cThere is another aspect that should not be underestimated,\u201d resumed Br. Riccardo. \u201cPipe organs are very expensive. Unfortunately, they are also delicate, and if they are not played and taken care of they are easily go out of order and lose their value, and the only option, then, is to restore them, which is also expensive to do. Therefore, together with the liturgical and musical aspects of this project, we must be aware that organ playing benefits the movable assets of our churches.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "I've been reading The Passage of Power: the Years of Lyndon B Johnson by Robert A. Caro. It's the fourth book in a series of autobiographies by Caro tracing the life and political career of LBJ. It's a fascinating read, named one of the 10 best books of 2012 by the New York Times.\nIn the 1960 Democratic Primary Elections, John F Kennedy utilized television to his incredible advantage. Johnson was hesitant to enter the race, even though he badly wanted the nomination, largely because he feared the possibility of defeat. He wanted it almost too badly, and would not publicly announce as a candidate. His fear of losing and fear of being humiliated in defeat paralyzed him until at the last moment, he declared. But it was too late.\nWhile Johnson had been reluctant to take a risk, Kennedy was developing a highly effective campaign machine. He traveled the nation building support, but even more importantly, he leveraged the power of television to his great advantage. Every chance he got, he was in front of the American public, in their living rooms, connecting with them through their television sets.\nJohnson thought television was a waste of time. He thought Kennedy was too flashy and that he lacked substance. Johnson was proud of his accomplishments as leader in the Senate. He blasted Kennedy for his weak record as a senator, noting that JFK had accomplished very little as a lawmaker. Kennedy rarely even showed up for work. He was too busy running a campaign for President.\nRegardless of his Senate record, JFK won the nomination. In a strange twist, he invited LBJ onto his ticket as his vice president. Begrudgingly, Johnson accepted the offer to be Kennedy's running mate. Kennedy went on to win the election in 1960, beating Republican Richard Nixon.\nIn the same way Johnson failed to recognize the power of television, too many educators today are not adapting to the digital transformation of the modern age, a revolution even more powerful than television. They are struggling to adapt to these new literacies. They think of social media and other digital tools as optional at best, and at worst they completely reject that these tools have any merit for learners.\nSome pay lip service to the idea that technology is important, but they do very little to model the use of digital tools, in their own lives or in their classrooms. They rarely use technology for learning, and when they do it is such a special event that it is more of a gimmick than a way of doing business. They cling to their content as if it must be the most important thing for their students to know, without ever questioning how irrelevant it might be for some.\nDo reading, writing, and math skills still matter? Absolutely. Every person should have skills in these traditional literacies, but we can't stop there. Those skills are just the beginning. Students need to also know how to apply these basic skills in ways that generate value in today's world. They need to practice these skills in modern applications. Learning digital literacies is not about learning gadgets or gimmicks. It's about learning how to collaborate, communicate, create, and think in a connected, information-rich world.\nSo instead of writing that research paper, ask students to create blogs. Incorporate social media into studies of literature and history. Reach out to experts in various fields to demonstrate the power of connections. Examine how modern films, music, and art impact the world of science and social science. Develop a classroom culture that goes beyond memorizing and testing. We need students to develop the skills of makers, designers, and innovators.\nIf we are slow to respond to how our world is changing, we are doing our students a disservice. We can't afford to make our own comfort and preferences the priority, now when seismic shifts are happening all around us that demand we change. If we want our students to win at life in a digital world, we have to act as if it's that important. Our students are counting on us. We have to lead.\nIf educators fail to adapt to the rapidly changing world, our students will suffer. Someone else will get the job. Someone else will solve the problem. Or even worse, the problem won't get solved. We will limit the possibilities of our most important resource, our children. simply because we didn't take a risk, try something new, or continue to be a learner. Like LBJ, if we are slow to adapt, it will result in failure. We all stand to lose.\nQuestion: How are you adapting as an educator and as a learner? What have you done to step out of your comfort zone? I want to hear from you.

This isn\u2019t true. It is never the victim\u2019s fault.\nThe legal definition of rape is when a male puts his penis into the vagina, mouth or anus of another person when that person doesn\u2019t want him to. It can happen to boys and girls and is a serious crime.\nIf somebody puts objects or other parts of the body (other than a penis) such as a finger, into someone\u2019s vagina or anus, when that person didn\u2019t want it to happen, this is known as \u2018assault by penetration\u2019.\nSexual assault is when someone is forced or pressured to take part in sexual activity that they don\u2019t feel comfortable with. This can include things like:\nBeing touched in a sexual way that makes you uncomfortable or frightened (this can be through clothes or not)\nBeing pressured to send naked pictures of yourself\nBeing made to sexually stimulate yourself or others using hands or fingers (known as masturbation).\nThis is a crime that can be committed by both men and women against men or women.\nRape, sexual assault and assault by penetration can have serious consequences for everyone involved.

        "raw_content": "Rent Stabilized Tenants Prepare to Protest Hike Vote Tuesday\nBy Jill Colvin | May 1, 2012 12:50pm\nTenant advocates waved homemade signs at the Rent Guidelines Board's public session Monday at the Cooper Union.\nDNAinfo/Patrick Hedlund\nNEW YORK \u2014 It's time to brace for a rent hike.\nThe city\u2019s Rent Guidelines Board, which sets rates for the city\u2019s one million rent-stabilized apartments, is set to cast its preliminary vote on increases Tuesday night.\nThe typically raucous hearings pit tenant groups against landlords as the board decides how much rents can legally climb in the coming year, based on owners' rising costs and other factors.\nThis year\u2019s meetings are likely to be particularly rowdy with a large showing by Occupy Wall Street protesters, who are planning to \"Occupy the RGB\" as part of Tuesday's May Day demonstrations.\nNo rent-hike numbers have been formally proposed, but a report released by the board last month floated several possibilities ranging from 1.5 percent to 3.75 percent for one-year leases, and 2 percent to 6 percent for two year leases.\nThe rent board's executive director, Andrew McLaughlin, stressed that it's up to members to decide on final numbers and that numerous factors are taken into consideration, including tenants' ability to pay.\nLast year, the board voted 5-to-4 to increase one-year leases by 3.75 percent and two-year leases by 7.25 percent, triggering jeers from tenants.\nJack Freund, executive vice president of the Rent Stabilization Association of N.Y.C., which represents property owners, said landlords are being forced to shoulder a raft of rising costs.\nThey include higher water and sewer charges, increased property taxes, and \"unfunded government mandates,\" such as installing backflow-prevention devices on water pipes that can cost tens of thousands of dollars in larger buildings, he said.\n\"Somebody has got to foot the bill and it's property owners that are being asked to pay,\" he said.\nThe association is pushing for a hike of 5 percent for one-year leases and 9 percent for two-year leases, plus a bonus for oil-heated buildings, he said.\nTenants\u2019 advocates say that's far too high.\nSam Stein, an organizer at the Chelsea-based New York State Tenants & Neighbors association, which is planning a protest ahead of the hearing, urged the board to resist a hike this year since he said the board routinely overestimates owners' costs.\nIn 2010, for example, he said the board projected an increase of 5.5 percent \u2014 yet costs ended up rising less than 1 percent.\n\"We think it\u2019s time to correct that balance and start with a rent freeze,\" said Stein, adding that tenants continue to struggle with high unemployment and reduced hours.\n\"The vacancy rates continue to be at emergency levels. It\u2019s very difficult for tenants to find alternative housing,\" he said.\nAfter Tuesday's vote, the board will hold two public hearings on June 13 and June 18. The rent board is set to cast its final vote June 21. If a rent hike is approved, it would kick in on Oct. 1.\nTuesday's preliminary vote will take place at Cooper Union\u2019s Great Hall at 7 E. 7th St. at 5:30 p.m.",

Across the street from WMM's floor-to-ceiling windows, construction workers ignore the warm rain as they build the infrastructure to what will be a spanking new and obnoxiously high 16-story building.\nBut Women Make Movies is still in an enviable position that Executive Director Debra Zimmerman would never have imagined over 30 years ago, when she first began working as an intern. \"I made $50 a week and 25 of that was deferred,\" Zimmerman recalls.\nWomen Make Movies is a multi-cultural, multi-racial, nonprofit media arts organization that facilitates the production, promotion, distribution and exhibition of independent films and videos by and about women. The organization was established in 1972 to address the under-representation of women in the media industry.\nThe agency started out dealing primarily with production. In fact, Zimmerman made her first film there in the 1980s. It was a documentary about wife abuse called Why Women Stay. Although she made money from educational institutions, she was distraught that few battered women got the chance to see the film due to the lack of theatrical or television distribution.\nSo, when she and Lydia Pilcher, who later went on to produce Mira Nair's films, took over WMM in the '80s, they decided to look into distribution. This decision was pushed along by two factors: More women were now making films, and the National Endowment for the Arts was swinging to a more conservative mindset that resulted in defunding for WMM for the first time in its history.\n\"There was a film about women in prison that we wanted,\" says Zimmerman. \"The filmmaker just wanted $400 for it. Lydia designed the flier. I used the postage meter from a foundation I was working with. We got a mailing list. We sent the flier out to 2,000 groups. We ended up renting it six times, and we sold two 16mm prints. The whole thing cost about 50 bucks, and we made about $200.\"\n\"I said, \u2018Wow, this is amazing.' Distribution is a win-win-win,\" Zimmerman continues. \"The filmmaker gets royalties. The groups that need and want to see the films get to. And for us, we're able to make money. That's where my passion for distribution started.\"\nWith its dramatic shift to distribution, WMM saw its yearly budget grow from one that was almost totally dependent on grants to its current $1.5 million budget, which is 90 percent funded by the company's distribution profits. Each year, WMM picks 20 to 25 films for distribution out of approximately 700 submitted, making WMM the leading distributor of women's films and videos in North America.\nFive of WMM's films screened at the International Documentary Film Festival in Amsterdam (IDFA) last fall, and two of these films appeared in IDFA's Docs For Sale section. In addition, five WMM films have been featured on PBS' acclaimed Independent Lens series over the past two years, including, most recently, Girl Wrestler (Diane Zander, prod./dir./cin.), which aired December 14 to critical acclaim.\nThe Kidnapping of Ingrid Betancourt (Victoria Bruce and Karin Hayes, prods./dirs.), Beah: A Black Women Speaks (LisaGay Hamilton, prod./dir; Neda Armian, Jonathan Demme, Joe Viola, prods.), The Man Who Stole My Mother's Face (Cathy Henkel, prod./dir.; Jeff Canin, prod.), Afghanistan Unveiled (Brigitte Brault and Aina Women Filming Group, prods./dirs.) and Thunder in Guyana (Suzanne Wasserman, prod./dir.) are just a few of WMM's recent and recognizable titles that have received various honors both domestically and internationally.\nWMM's success in the distribution realm doesn't mean that the organization is ignoring its production roots. WMM also offers a unique Production Assistance Program (PAP), which provides training, fiscal sponsorship and information services to independent media artists. All Over Me (Alex and Sylvia Sichel, prods./dirs) and the film adaptation of Anna Deavere Smith's Twilight: Los Angeles, 1992 (Marc Levin, dir.; Anna Deavere Smith, Ezra Swerdlow, prods.) are just two of the 80 projects that have been completed through PAP.\nZimmerman credits the market, the filmmakers WMM works with, her small industrious staff and the support of her board of directors not only for the organization's success, but also for her ever-increasing ability to re-invent herself. She has been called upon to give distribution and production presentations both in the US and abroad. Indeed, she has been encouraged to be more of a presence at festivals by WMM board members, who include such industry players as Leslie Fields-Cruz of the National Black Programming Consortium, Kathryn Gal\u00e1n of the National Association of Latino Independent Producers, Marian Masone of the Film Society of Lincoln Center, Bienvenida Matias of the Association of Independent Video and Filmmakers and Diane Weyermann of the Sundance Institute.\nFrom making $25 a week to distributing 25 films a year, both WMM and Zimmerman have come a long way. \"I was really lucky,\" she maintains. \"I had an opportunity to come into an organization, recreate it and learn on the job. I've been able to change what I do here every few years. And now I have a board that wants me being visible, thinking, writing and being a leader. I was amazingly lucky.\"\nZimmerman and staff may no longer see much from their office window. But the world will be seeing much more from Debra Zimmerman and Women Make Movies.\nSkye Dent is a veteran filmmaker, journalist, and member of the IDA and WGA, west.\nCable Entanglements: The Devil's in the Details\nDigital Europa: Beating Hollywood at Its Own Distribution Game\nFirst Run/Icarus Rising: A Quarter-Century of Distribution",

        "raw_content": "Delving deep into the mind of a story teller\nLord Jeffrey Archer is one of the world&apos;s best-selling authors whose Kane and Abel, A Prisoner of Birth and Cat O&apos; Nine Tales, have topped the bestseller lists around the world, with sales of over 270 million copies. He is the only author ever to have been a number one bestseller in fiction (18 times), short stories (4 times) and non-fiction (The Prison Diaries).\nForced into writing to revive his fortunes, before becoming an author Lord Archer was a Member of Parliament from 1969 to 74, but resigned due to a financial bankruptcy. Later, the royalties from his best-sellers helped turn his fortunes around.\nKnown for his wonderful sense of humour, wit and his undying passion for being a master story teller, Lord Archer talks to domain-b&apos;s Swetha Amit about his Clifton Chronicles series, his aspirations as a story teller and the books that have inspired him.\nThe Clifton Chronicles is an extraordinary saga spread over a span of 100 years. How did you come up with concept and did it turn the way as you had expected it to?\nI was around 70 when I decided to write the first of the Clifton Chronicles series. At that time, I needed something to keep myself motivated. I initially planned it to be a five-book series and felt that if I had to write five books in five years, it required immense amount of focus and perseverance on my part. I knew that I had to channelize all my energy into it and concentrate solely on this venture.\nDuring the course of this series, when I was penning down the fifth book, Mightier than the Sword, I realised that the prime characters Harry and Emma were only 50 and 49 years old respectively. Since I couldn&apos;t age these characters gracefully in just five books, I had to extend this saga by two more books. So the Clifton Chronicles will now be a seven-series saga.\nOne sees some similar shades of your personality in the character of Harry Clifton. So where would you say this character has been inspired from?\nI would say that the prime character of Harry Clifton, whom the Clifton Chronicles is based upon is pretty much autobiographical. I personally see a lot of Harry in me and I see a lot of Emma (Harry&apos;s wife) in my wife Mary. The part of England where I come from also has a lot going on in terms of politics, arts and business, similar to the events described in the books. So yes, a lot of it is inspired from my life.\nDid you face any challenges while penning down the Clifton Chronicles?\nWhen I finished penning down the first book of the series, Only time will tell and saw it topping the best-sellers list, I was told that my second book in the series was bound to drop its numbers in the sales charts.\nSo the challenge I faced here was to ensure that the second book, The Sins of the Father turned out to be a better read than the first one. The other challenge was to make sure that my readers were happy with the plot. Now that was certainly not easy considering the fact that we were talking about millions of them. I realized that this was going to be an insurmountable task and I could not afford to relax even for a minute. So I took up these challenges rather seriously and that&apos;s what kept me going.\nEach part of the series was released with a gap of one year. Did you ever experience the fear of losing your readers&apos; interest?\nOf course I did have that fear within me. At times I would just wonder whether anyone would even buy my next book. In fact 10 years ago, I had to considerably wait for long periods to hear whether I was No. 1 on the best sellers list as the concept of pre-orders did not exist.\nHowever, today because of the pre-orders, I am secure of my No 1 position. For instance Kindle had sold 20,000 copies of my books before it came out while books by some of my counterparts / rivals sold only 8,000 copies.\nSo the world has changed. But that doesn&apos;t stop me from being insecure about my next book. I do realize that my next book has got to be better than my previous one in order to ensure that my readers look forward to it eagerly. When my fans come and tell me that they cannot wait for my next book, it makes me really happy.\nThe characters in your book are seen to display strong emotions such as love, betrayal, ambition, triumph and greed in the background of a complex plot. So did you find yourself growing as a story teller while penning down this series in the last 5 years?\nThe drama that unfolds in my books are events that are bound to happen in our daily lives. As humans we encounter such emotions at some point in time in the course of our routine.\nWhen you are writing a book dealing with the complexity of such emotions, you tend to find the characters growing along with you. So with my fifth book, Mightier than the Sword, the characters of Harry, Emma, Giles and the wicked Virginia were very much there the whole time, growing with me.\nThere were times I wondered if I would ever run out of ideas. Thankfully that didn&apos;t happen as the ideas just seemed to grow and get better. I have two more books to finish in order to complete the Clifton series. Now with the outline already done for the sixth book, I only have one more to go.\nNow that you say there will be two more books to the Clifton Chronicles, tell us something more about these upcoming books?\nWell I would tell you more if I knew myself. I normally never know where my books are going as I usually just go with the flow of ideas. But yes you will see the continuity in the characters of Harry, Emma, Giles and the wicked Lady Virginia.\nYou have stated that you are more of a story teller than a writer. What is the difference between the two?\nThe difference between a writer and a story teller can be described as the difference between the great VS Naipaul and myself. Naipaul is a wonderful writer and I could never write as well as him. Whereas I am more of a story teller. All writers aren&apos;t necessarily story tellers. However when you find that combination of a good writer and a story teller, you get geniuses like Charles Dickens and R K Narayan.\nWriting tends to get mentally exhausting. What keeps you constantly inspired and motivated?\nWhat keeps me going is the fear of death. I also have this fear of growing so old that I will be forced to lead a monotonous life of merely watching television and going for my routine walks. In fact my wife often keeps telling me to relax and this is something I just cannot get myself to do. So I will keep writing as long as I can and that&apos;s my true passion.\nCharles Dickens died while he was in the middle of writing a book. Amidst his writing, he just stood up for a couple of minutes, walked across to the couch and suddenly expired. I cannot think of a better way to depart. I just want to go on writing and prefer to die writing rather than giving it up and taking life easy.\nLooking back at your journey as a story teller, did you ever anticipate success when you wrote your first book?\nLooking back over the years I still cannot fathom the amount of success that has followed every book. It feels like an enigma when I walk into a room of a thousand people and hear about the million copies that get sold. It makes me wonder as to why me? Why ahead of every author? Why in India?\nBesides that I also have this fear of letting down my readers who wait in eager anticipation for the next book to hit the shelves. I will feel shattered if they come and tell me that the new book wasn&apos;t as good as the earlier one. I suppose it is because I am an aspirational individual that such thoughts occur. However it&apos;s this constant contemplation on my part that propels me to keep going with a renewed vigour.\nWhat books have inspired you? Has Indian fiction caught your fancy?\nOne of my personal favourites is The Count of Monte Cristo by Alexandre Dumas. It was this piece of literature that inspired me to write A Prisoner of Birth. I am also a great admirer of Stefan Zweig&apos;s Beware of pity which I personally think is a master piece. An Indian lady had introduced me to this book many years ago.\nAmongst the work of Indian fiction, Malgudi Days by RK Narayan is a work of a genius. I rank him number one on my list. Besides him I greatly admire the works of VS Naipaul, Vikram Seth and Salman Rushdie.\n( See: Excerpts from Clifton Chronicles )",

        "title": "Dovetail Recruitment - Benefits of a Weak Pound for the UK",
        "raw_content": "It seems to me that many people are currently in crisis over the fact that we have a weak pound due to the exchange rate plummeting again last week \u2013 and I don\u2019t blame them. We are currently in the depths of uncertainty after the result of Brexit and the resignation of the Prime Minister David Cameron, and now various other states/countries are questioning whether or not they should have their own independence.\nI\u2019m not here to explain to you how or why the pound has dropped, there are a wealth of experts to tell you that. But I\u2019m here to try and provide you with a brighter note, and explain how we can benefit from a weak pound. I\u2019m not looking at this with rose tinted glasses, I know that there is a lot of negative impact that the weakening of the pound has, but we all could do with some positive thinking every now and again.\nThis article will look at two key areas that provide the UK with income: exports and tourism. Of course this isn\u2019t the limit to the benefits of a weak pound, but they are two main areas that provide the economy with a solid income.\nThe first way in which we can benefit the cheaper pound is the exportation side of the market. The manufacturing industry accounts for 18% of GDP and exports are now a lot cheaper in \u2018global terms.\u2019[1][2] With a weak pound, businesses exporting internationally should see a rise in their profitability. Before the major drop in the summer spurred on by Brexit, business manufacturers were feeling a slowdown in their factories due to the strength of the pound. This was because new and existing clients who would usually buy from the UK could find it cheaper elsewhere and therefore the competition with other countries was much tougher.\nNow that the pound has fallen, the UK export market is a lot more competitive.[3] Ben Chu at The Independent reports that \u2018UK manufacturing firms are reporting strong growth in export orders since the referendum vote\u2019, and the original fall of the pound.[4] Goods are now a lot cheaper to export and this could help lift that lagging demand and generate more money for the economy.[5] Other countries will see their currency go much further when importing from Britain now and will hopefully be encouraged to buy much more from the UK than before. In addition, \u2018The current account deficit should improve as the value of exports rises relative to the value of imports.\u2019[6]\nCompanies that have benefited from a weak pound\nThe largest export we have in this country is now cars. The UK currently sells $46 billion cars to countries abroad every year.[7] This means the UK car manufacturing industry is more profitable as the pound has weakened. This is because our prices will be cheaper to other countries as their currencies go further in how much they get for their buck. Manufacturers such as Jaguar and Land Rover can make more progress against their German competition such as BMW and Lexus and possibly cement themselves in a higher position for the future.[8]\nAnother example in addition to car exports is our biggest net export \u2013 Scotch Whisky. This is now a lot cheaper than Brandy or Bourbon. We could see a rise in profits of Scotch not only because it is cheaper to export, but also because it is cheaper for other countries to purchase than other high-end spirits, which has eliminated some of our competition.[11]\nBut what exactly does this mean in numbers? Well, William Wilkes from the Wall Street Journal reports that Rolls-Royce have approximately a $2 million impact every one cent the dollar-pound rate moves. Therefore, the drop and the now weak pound will see their profits soar.[9] Furthermore, Nick Charlier, a spokesman for Brompton Bicycle, the folding bike company, states that \u2018The falling pound creates opportunities to boost our sales, especially in markets with strong local currencies,\u2019[10]\nThe argument against this?\nPeople argue that even though exportation will see profit, imports will cost us much more. This is true, but there is even a benefit to this. With high import costs, the UK consumers may be more encouraged and likely to purchase goods made in the UK. This, therefore, increases the UK aggregate demand and benefits the country.[12] When the UK left the ERM in 1992 there was a rise of aggregate demand and furthermore, the depreciation of the pound helped the economy to recover as more people were buying goods from this country and the need to import decreased somewhat.[13]\nAside from the benefits to exportation, there is also benefit to our economy from travel and tourism. British leisure, exchange, and tour companies could all benefit to a weak pound. Tourism already brings the UK a lot of money, supporting many towns and businesses across the UK. It plays a big part in our own seaside town \u2013 Bournemouth.\nThe drop in the exchange rate will see tourists get more pounds for their money when travelling from abroad to spend here. It will also see the prices of hotels and restaurants drop, therefore making the overall cost of the holiday/travel experience decrease. The Financial Times states that \u2018The shrinking value of the pound against the euro and dollar represents an opportunity for domestic leisure companies\u2019[14]. This is an opportunity they should exploit by reviewing the new exchange rate, implementing new prices that mean their overseas customers are still paying the same as before, but they as a company are making more profit.\nWe can see an example of the effect of the lower exchange rate on tourism in 2014. We saw the dollar drop from around $1.71 to \u00a31 to approximately $1.55 from early July to the end of December. This rate kept falling in 2015 until it reached $1.46. Bearing this in mind, the UK\u2019s Office for National Statistics shows that in 2015, the number of international visits increased by over 5% compared to 2014.[15]\nFurthermore, the media giving this drop all the international coverage is increasing the number of people who are considering coming to the UK for a cheap break. This is making it well known that it is currently a fantastic time for people from other countries to visit the UK because everything is cheaper. The Independent says that retail sales seem to have had a nice little boost since the referendum due to an influx of tourists.[16]\nAnd just one last little thought provoking comment to end with from a quote put forward by Ambrose Evans-Prichard from The Telegraph, \u2018The slump in sterling is a blessing in disguise after years of overvaluation and helps to break the corrosive stranglehold of the financial elites over the British economy, according to a former bail-out chief for the International Monetary Fund.\u2019[17]\nIf you have any thoughts on this article, please feel free to leave a comment in the comments section.\n[1] Tejvan Pettinger, \u2018Costs and benefits of a low pound\u2019 (10th December 2015), Economics help <http://www.economicshelp.org/blog/1061/economics/costs-and-benefits-of-a-low-pound/>\n[2] Matthew Lynn, \u2018Four Ways the UK can Take Advantage of a Weaker Pound\u2019, (10th October 2016) The Telegraph <http://www.telegraph.co.uk/business/2016/10/10/four-ways-the-uk-can-take-advantage-of-a-weaker-pound/>\n[4] Ben Chu, \u20187 Ways the Fall in the Value of the Pound Effects Us All\u2019, (4th October 2016) The independent 4th <http://www.independent.co.uk/news/business/news/pound-sterling-value-dollar-euro-drop-latest-how-will-it-affect-me-holidays-travel-a7344861.html>\n[5] Katy Allen \u2018Why is the pound falling and what are the implications for Britain\u2019, (22nd February 2016) <https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2016/feb/22/why-is-the-pound-falling-britain-sterling-dollar-uk-credit-vote-eu>\n[7] Matthew Lynn, \u2018Four Ways the UK can Take Advantage of a Weaker Pound\u2019, The Telegraph\n[9] William Wilkes, Pound\u2019s plunge benefits some business, punishes others\u2019 (3rd July 2016), The Wall Street Journal, July 3rd 2016 <http://www.wsj.com/articles/pounds-plummet-benefits-some-businesses-punishes-others-1467569043>\n[11] Matthew Lynn, \u2018Four Ways the UK can Take Advantage of a Weaker Pound\u2019, (10th October 2016) The Telegraph <http://www.telegraph.co.uk/business/2016/10/10/four-ways-the-uk-can-take-advantage-of-a-weaker-pound/>\n[12] Tejvan Pettinger, \u2018Costs and benefits of a low pound\u2019 (10th December 2015), Economics help <http://www.economicshelp.org/blog/1061/economics/costs-and-benefits-of-a-low-pound/>\n[14] Murad Ahmed& Paul McClean, \u2018UK Tourism set to benefit from weak pound\u2019 (27th June 2016) Financial Times 27th <https://www.ft.com/content/081baa36-3c73-11e6-9f2c-36b487ebd80a>\n[16] Ben Chu, \u20187 Ways the Fall in the Value of the Pound Effects Us All\u2019, (4th October 2016) The Independent, <http://www.independent.co.uk/news/business/news/pound-sterling-value-dollar-euro-drop-latest-how-will-it-affect-me-holidays-travel-a7344861.html>\n[17] Ambrose Evans-Pritchard, \u2018Britain should embrace weaker pound and it needs to fall further says former BoE governor and currency guru\u2019, (10th October 2016), The Telegraph <http://www.telegraph.co.uk/business/2016/10/10/currency-guru-says-pound-slide-liberates-uk-from-malign-grip-of/>\nTags: business, economy, finance, pound",

        "raw_content": "Downsize your home &\nupscale your life...\nWelcome to Downsizing Up. A website devoted to helping people live and thrive in less space.\nOur Changing Vision of the Perfect Home\u2026\nWe all have a vision for our \u201cperfect home\u201d. For most of us, that vision has been increasing in terms of size and amenities for nearly 70 years. It started with wanting an extra bathroom or a separate bedroom for each child. Then it increased to needing a separate home office for the adults, a bonus room for the kids, more closet space all around, as well as a dedicated bedroom for guests and so on.\nWell, most of us can see where this is going. Pretty soon you are talking about some serious square footage. And, that\u2019s exactly what happened. Over a 65 year period, the size of the average new home has increased close to 300% \u2013 from 980sf in 1950 to nearly 2700sf in 2015!\nHas bigger and better morphed into a burden?\nBut with that increased size has come increased expenses and time commitments. It\u2019s not just the increased mortgage payment. It\u2019s the taxes, the heating, the cooling, the unexpected extras. There is also the time it takes to landscape, mulch, plant, clean, scrub, wax, and polish and otherwise maintain a larger space.\nIt\u2019s no wonder that more and more people are taking a serious look at downsizing. The overhead of a large home can begin to feel like a big ball and chain in terms of expense and time.\nDownsizing your home is the new way to upscale your life\u2026\nIt sounds great and it can be wonderful. But that doesn\u2019t mean it\u2019s exactly simple either. When you get used to a lot of physical space, paring down can be difficult. There will be trade-offs and choices to make, and you will be asking any number of questions:\nWill we be able to live without a bonus room?\nCan we get by without a dedicated room for a home office?\nAre we going to be able to cope with one less bathroom?\nWhat are we going to do without a separate guest room when family comes to visit?\nHow do we decide what to keep and what to toss?\nCan we cram all the things that we love into half the space?\nShould we opt for condo, townhouse or single family home?\nHow do we maximize the use of our smaller living space?\nThis website is devoted to showing you how to make the most use of your new space and how to determine what kind of downsizing situation is best for you.\n\u00a9 2018 RGHicks \u2013 http://www.downsizingup.com \u2013 All rights reserved.",

        "raw_content": "The preferred outcome when treating a tooth for decay is to preserve it. If the disease is still in its early stages, we can accomplish this effectively by removing diseased tissue and then restoring the remaining tooth with filling material.\nThere comes a point, however, when filling a tooth isn\u2019t the best option. If it has already received several fillings, the tooth may have become too weak to receive another. Additionally, a filling may not be enough protection from further fracture or infection for teeth weakened from trauma or abnormal tooth wear or in the event a root canal treatment is necessary.\nWhile a diseased tooth can be extracted and replaced with a durable and aesthetically pleasing dental implant, there may be another option to consider \u2014 installing a crown. Like a filling, a crown preserves what remains of a natural tooth, but with better protection, life expectancy and appearance than a filling.\nKnown also as a cap, a crown completely covers or \u201ccaps\u201d a natural tooth. They\u2019re produced in a variety of styles and materials to match the function and appearance of the capped tooth and adjacent teeth. Crowns made of porcelain are ideally suited for visible teeth because of their resemblance to tooth enamel. A less visible tooth that endures more biting force (like a back molar) may need the strength of a precious metal like gold or new-age porcelains that can also withstand significant biting forces. There are also hybrid crowns available that combine the strength of metal for biting surfaces and the life-like appearance of porcelain for the more visible areas of a tooth.\nTo prepare a tooth for a crown, we first remove any decayed structure and add bonding material to strengthen what remains. We then make a mold of the tooth and bite, which is typically sent to a dental technician as a guide for creating the permanent crown. Recent advances with digital technology have also made it possible to mill the permanent crown out of porcelain in the dental office while you wait.\nAfter the permanent crown is received and permanently bonded to the tooth, you will have a protected and fully functional tooth. From this point on it\u2019s important for you to clean and care for it as you would any other tooth since the underlying tooth is still at risk for decay. The good news is your tooth has been saved with a bonus \u2014 a long-term solution that\u2019s also smile-transforming.\nIf you would like more information on crowns and other tooth restorations, please contact us or schedule an appointment for a consultation. You can also learn more about this topic by reading the Dear Doctor magazine article \u201cCrowns & Bridgework.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Four Latvian men found guilty of organised crime offences in West Lothian\nFour Latvian men have today been found guilty of being orchestrating an international money laundering ring from West Lothian.\nAt Edinburgh Sheriff Court Hardijs Langsteins, 37, from Salford, Maris Kursis, 30, from Falkirk, Arvids Civkors, 30, from Edinburgh and 38-year-old Aivars Dzagarjans from Forth in South Lanarkshire were all found guilty of the crimes.\nFour Latvian nationals have been found guilty following a police operation to tackle human trafficking and organised crime.' Pic: Crown Office\nA Police Scotland investigation into this crime group was launched in April 2016, when it was established that they were responsible for bringing Latvian nationals into the UK and housing them within crowded accommodation within several addresses in West Lothian.\nThe victims believed they would be offered employment, usually within a local warehouse in Bathgate, where Civkors worked. Some victims were forced to surrender their wages to the group, others were forced under duress to open bank accounts which were then used for money laundering and fraud by the crime group.\nAll four were arrested and subsequently charged on 2nd December 2016.\nSpeaking following today\u2019s verdict, Detective Chief Inspector Stephen Healy said: \u201cAll four of these men subjected their victims to threats, intimidation and coercion, leaving them in fear for their safety and believing that they were in debt to the group, forcing them to hand over their bank accounts in order to repay them. The group then committed fraud and laundered the proceeds of these crimes through the accounts.\n\u201cThis group actively targeted vulnerable Latvian nationals looking to come to the UK for a better life and placed them in crowded and squalid conditions, exploiting them for profit.\n\u201cThe inquiry team used all means at their disposal to dismantle this crime group and bring them to justice, working closely with various partners including Crown Office and Procurator Fiscals Department, The National Crime Agency, The National Human Trafficking Unit, Europol, The Latvian Police, Migrant Help and West Lothian Council.\u201d\nDet Chf Insp Healy also thanked all those who testified against Langsteins, Kursis, Dzagarjan and Civkors as it was their evidence that helped secure their convictions, adding: \u201cPolice Scotland is committed to protecting vulnerable people from harm and investigate all reports of human trafficking with the utmost seriousness to bring perpetrators to justice and ensure victims are appropriately supported.\u201d\nThe men had all pled not guilty to the offences, which took place between June 20, 2012, and December 2, 2016.\nBut on the 14th week of a trial at Edinburgh Sheriff Court, the men were found guilty of being connected to serious organised crime in Scotland, England and Latvia, involving money laundering and fraud.\nThe men had encouraged people from Latvia to come to the UK by offering to provide their travel, accommodation and employment.\nBut once the people arrived in the UK, they were told they were \u201cin debt\u201d to the gang.\nThe victims were forced to open bank accounts in their own names, hand over their bank accounts and bank cards and were sent to work in various locations throughout the UK.\nRefusal to co-operate met with threats of violence and assaults.\nOn the fourth day of their deliberation, the jury of nine women and six men today found all the accused guilty by a majority.\nThe men\u2019s defence agents asked that as reports would have to be prepared, their clients, who had been on bail for the duration of the trial, should be allowed to continue to be bailed.\nSheriff Thomas Welsh QC told the men that each of them had been convicted of very serious offences involving organised crime and he was not persuaded to grant bail. All four were remanded in custody for reports to be prepared. The case will call again on December 4.\nSheriff Welsh thanked the jury for the time they had taken to attend the proceedings. It had been an unusual case, he said, lasting for a long time. He told them it had been \u201can important decision for this country\u201d and that they had \u201cplayed a very important part in public service\u201d.",

        "raw_content": "Birmingham City boss Lee Clark puzzled by poor home form\nBirmingham City boss Lee Clark was at a loss to explain the disparity between his side's home and away form after Saturday's much-needed 3-1 victory at Doncaster Rovers.\nIt was the Blues' ninth win on the road, while they have only won two at home.\n\"I just don't know what it is, but I'm quite embarrassed by our home form,\" Clark said.\n\"We shouldn't feel under more pressure at home because we've got fantastic support and the fans have never turned on the players or myself.\n\"I've tried everything from a sports psychologist, different training methods, different suits.\n\"I've even considered going naked to home games, but maybe that's not such a good idea.\"\nBirmingham were lacklustre in the first half in which Doncaster took the lead when defender Paul Quinn fired home at the second attempt following a free-kick from David Cotterill in the 36th minute.\nBut there was a massive turnaround in the second half after a bad mistake by young left-back James Husband led to an equaliser as Rovers crashed to their first home Sky Bet Championship defeat in nine games.\nHusband dwelt on the ball and was robbed of possession by on-loan Manchester United striker Federico Macheda, who lashed home the equaliser from a tricky angle in the 57th minute.\nLee Novak broke away to put City in front after 71 minutes and Macheda sealed the comeback with a fine header five minutes later.\nClark said: \"It wasn't looking good in the first half but the players came out after the interval and put in a very good performance.\n\"We made changes and just matched them up in the second half, won our individual battles and played on the front foot.\n\"We scored three and could have had more. Now we just have to get it right at home.\"\nRovers boss Paul Dickov acknowledged his side only had themselves to blame.\n\"It was definitely a self-inflicted defeat,\" he said.\n\"We were one up at half-time without playing as well as we have recently, and should have been further in front.\n\"But if you make mistakes you get punished. All three goals were individual errors that cost us dearly and we have to learn from that.\n\"We've got a game on Tuesday night and we will go again. We are better than that, especially at home.\n\"It's a game we should have won, but we have to stay positive and believe in ourselves.\n\"Federico Macheda is lethal in the penalty area and you just can't allow him chances like that .\n\"We should know because we had him on loan ourselves earlier in the season.\"",

        "title": "With The Supreme Court Upholding Most Of Health Care Reform, Employers Must Focus On Immediate Compliance Deadlines",
        "raw_content": "With The Supreme Court Upholding Most Of Health Care Reform, Employers Must Focus On Immediate Compliance Deadlines\nOn June 28, 2012, the United States Supreme Court (\"Court\") issued its landmark decision on the constitutionality of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (\"Act\"), and ruled that all of the challenged health care reform provisions in the Act are constitutional other than a portion of a Medicaid expansion provision. Although future challenges to the implementation of some or all of the Act will occur through the electoral process, additional litigation, and the legislative process, those challenges are unlikely to result in any significant changes in the requirements of the Act before the end of this year at the earliest. In the meantime, there are a number of new requirements in the Act that covered employers will need to comply with in the near future, including:\nfinalizing the Summary of Benefits and Coverage that most employers will be required to provide on the first day of open enrollment this fall;\ntaking the steps necessary to comply with the $2,500 annual limit that will apply to health flexible spending accounts beginning in 2013, including making sure that open enrollment materials that will be distributed to eligible employees prior to the beginning of the 2013 plan year accurately describe the new limit;\nimplementing any procedures necessary to track and record health coverage costs in 2012 to prepare for the new Form W-2 reporting requirement for group health plan coverage costs that will apply to Forms W-2 that will be issued by certain employers in January of 2013; and\ncoordinating with any applicable insurer or administrator to make sure that the research fees that will be imposed by the Act on specified issuers of health insurance policies and plan sponsors of self-insured health plans starting with the first plan or policy year ending on or after October 1, 2012 are timely paid in 2013.\nIn addition to these requirements, the Act will impose numerous other requirements on covered employers in the next few years that should be planned for in advance of the applicable deadlines. Some of the more important of those requirements are described below.\nWhat Were the Major Decisions Made By the Court With Respect to the Act?\nThe major decisions made by the Court in its June 28, 2012 decision in National Federation of Independent Business v. Sebelius included the following:\nThe Anti-Injunction Act Did Not Preclude a Current Ruling on the Constitutionality of the Individual Mandate -- The Act requires most individuals to have minimum essential health coverage in 2014 or pay a penalty (this requirement is commonly referred to as the \"Individual Mandate\"). A procedural issue that arose with respect to the constitutional challenges to the Individual Mandate is whether such challenges would be precluded by the Anti-Injunction Act. The Anti-Injunction Act generally precludes a lawsuit to prevent the imposition of a tax if that tax has yet to be paid. The Court held that the Individual Mandate penalty was not a tax for purposes of the Anti-Injunction Act, and thus the Anti-Injunction Act did not preclude a constitutional challenge now to the Individual Mandate penalty even though the penalty has yet to be imposed.\nThe Individual Mandate is a Constitutional Exercise of Congress' Right To Impose Taxes -- The Court held by a 5 to 4 majority that the Individual Mandate is constitutional, because it can be construed as a \"tax\" that may be imposed by Congress as part of its general constitutional right to impose taxes (Section 8 of Article I of the United States Constitution provides, in part, that Congress may \"lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises, to pay the Debts and provide for the ... general Welfare of the United States\"). Notwithstanding the fact that the Individual Mandate penalty was held not to be a tax for purposes of the Anti-Injunction Act, the Court held that the penalty still could be construed as a \"tax\" for purposes of the tax provision in the United States Constitution (\"Constitution\"). Although a different 5 to 4 majority of the Court held that the Act was unconstitutional under the \"Commerce Clause\" and the \"Necessary and Proper Clause\" of the Constitution, those holdings do not preclude implementation of the Individual Mandate because of the holding that the Individual Mandate is a constitutional tax.\nA Portion of the Medicaid Expansion Provision Was Held to be Unconstitutional -- The Act will expand Medicaid in 2014 to cover certain persons who are under the age of 65, who have income that is not greater than 133 percent of the federal poverty level, and who previously were not eligible for Medicaid. If a state refuses to include these newly eligible persons in its Medicaid program, the Act provides that the state could lose all of its federal funding for Medicaid (i.e., not only the federal funding for the persons who will be newly eligible in 2014, but also the federal funding for all other persons eligible for Medicaid). The Court held by a 7 to 2 majority that the threat to withdraw all federal funding for Medicaid was coercive and a violation of the \"Spending Clause\" in the Constitution. The Court held, by a 5 to 4 majority, that this unconstitutional feature of the Act was severable from the remainder of the Act, and that the Act's expansion of Medicaid could occur as long as the penalty for a state not choosing to cover the newly eligible persons is only to lose federal Medicaid funding for those newly eligible persons (as opposed to losing federal Medicaid funding for all individuals eligible for Medicaid).\nWhat Are Some of the More Important New Requirements in the Act That Employers Will Need to Comply With in the Near Future?\nAmong the more important new requirements of the Act that covered employers will need to comply with in the near future are the following:\nSummary of Benefits and Coverage Requirements -- The Act generally requires a group health plan to provide to participants and beneficiaries a Summary of Benefits and Coverage (\"SBC\") on the first day of the first open enrollment period beginning on or after September 23, 2012. The SBC is intended to be a short summary of the applicable benefits and coverage that can be used by participants and beneficiaries to compare different health plans. Regulations and frequently asked questions (\"FAQs\") have been issued that include detailed requirements on what must be included in an SBC, when an SBC must be distributed outside of an open enrollment period, notice requirements when midyear material modifications are made to an SBC, permissible methods of distributing an SBC, and other related requirements. These requirements are summarized in our November 2011 Employee Benefits Law Action Memo, our February 2012 Employee Benefits Information Memo, our March 2012 Employee Benefits Information Memo, and our June 2012 Employee Benefits Action Memo. To the extent not already done, employers should verify that the required information for their SBCs is being compiled and will be ready for timely distribution.\nNew Annual Limit for Health Flexible Spending Accounts -- The Act and subsequent guidance provides that, for plan years that begin after 2012, an eligible employee may not make elective salary reduction contributions to a health flexible spending account (\"Health FSA\") in excess of $2,500 per year (this $2,500 limit will be indexed for inflation beginning in 2014). The U.S. Department of Treasury provided guidance on how to implement this annual limit in Notice 2012-40, and that guidance is summarized in our June 2012 Employee Benefits Action Memo. Employers should make sure that the open enrollment materials that will be distributed to eligible employees before the start of the 2013 plan year accurately reflect the new annual limit, and that they have coordinated with the administrator of their cafeteria plan to ensure that the new limit is properly implemented.\nNew Form W-2 Reporting Requirement For Group Health Plan Coverage Costs -- Employers that provide \"applicable employer-sponsored coverage\" under a group health plan (other than certain \"small employers\" and certain federally recognized Indian tribal governments) are required to begin reporting the cost of group health plan coverage on the Forms W-2 that generally are required to be issued in January of 2013. This new Form W-2 reporting is for informational purposes only, and does not cause otherwise non-taxable employer-provided health coverage to become taxable. The Internal Revenue Service (\"IRS\") issued guidance on this new reporting requirement in Notices 2010-69, 2011-28, and 2012-9, and that guidance is summarized in our January 2012 Employee Benefits Law Action Memo. If not already done, employers subject to this new reporting requirement should make sure that adequate procedures are in place to track and record health coverage costs in 2012 in order that such information will be ready to be reported on the 2012 Forms W-2 issued in January of 2013.\nResearch Fees That Will Be Owed By Many Health Plans and Insurers -- The Act imposes research fees on specified issuers of health insurance policies and plan sponsors of self-insured health plans, starting with the first plan or policy year ending on or after October 1, 2012. The first payment deadline for the research fee is July 31, 2013, and IRS Form 720 should be used to pay the research fee. The research fees will be used to help establish a private, non-profit corporation, the Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute, that will do health care research that is intended to help patients, clinicians, purchasers, and policymakers make informed health decisions. The IRS has issued proposed regulations that describe the applicable requirements for these research fees, and those requirements are described in our May 2012 Employee Benefits Action Memo. With the period for assessing the research fees starting later this year, employers that have health coverage that will be subject to the research fee should coordinate with any applicable insurer or administrator to make sure the research fee is timely and correctly paid.\nWhat Are Some of the Other Important Upcoming Requirements in the Act That Employers Should Be Considering Now?\nThe Act has numerous other requirements that have yet to take effect that will affect covered employers. Among the more important of these requirements that such employers should plan for in advance are the following:\npreventive care requirements for women that certain health plans will have to implement starting with plan years that begin on or after August 1, 2012;\nmedical loss ratio rebate requirements that will apply to certain insured health plans starting in August of 2012 (certain insurers that fail to spend a specified percentage of premiums received on covered medical claims and quality improvement-expenses will have to provide rebates to the applicable health plans starting in August of 2012, and employers that have such plans will have to decide how to handle such rebates);\n2013 increases in Medicare payroll taxes and FICA taxes for certain highly compensated individuals;\ncertain employers will be required to provide a notice to their employees in March of 2013 about the health insurance exchanges that will become operational in 2014 (in addition to this notice requirement, certain employers will want to do an analysis in 2013 about how the health insurance exchanges might impact the health coverage they provide);\nthe employer mandate requirement (commonly referred to as the \"pay or play\" requirement) that will apply in 2014 to certain employers having at least 50 full-time equivalent employees, which will require those employers to decide whether they will provide minimum essential health coverage to their full-time equivalent employees in 2014 or pay a financial penalty;\nnondiscrimination requirements for certain insured group health plans that will apply after the applicable regulations are issued; and\nnumerous other requirements that will apply to many group health plans in 2014 or later, including expanded dependent coverage rules for \"grandfathered\" health plans, new preexisting condition exclusion requirements, a restriction on eligibility waiting periods that exceed 90 days, a requirement to eliminate all annual dollar limits for covered group health plans, new incentive/penalty requirements for wellness incentives, new minimum essential coverage requirements, new clinical trial coverage requirements, new provisions regarding guaranteed availability and renewability of insured health coverages, changes to Medicare Part D coverage, new automatic enrollment requirements that will apply to certain employers after the applicable regulations are issued, and a new \"Cadillac\" plan excise tax that will apply in 2018 if the aggregate value of certain health coverages exceed a specified amount.",

        "title": "X Large Banking Groups and Financial System Soundness : Northern Star : Canada's Path to Economic Prosperity:",
        "raw_content": "Banking Sector Trends\nMarket-Based Financial Soundness Indicators\nSoundness Indicators in Canada and the United States\nAverage Distance to Default (DD) of Large Banking Groups\nSystem DD Minus Average DD of Large Banking Groups\nCorrelation between Banking and Insurance Sector DDs\nAverage DD in Canada and the United States\nRisk Concentration in Canada and the United States\nGianni De Nicol\u00f2, Alexander Tieman and Robert Corker\nThis section1 uses market-based soundness indicators to assess the stability implications of the rapid growth and shifting business strategies of Canada's large banking groups. Helped by changes in the regulatory framework, a process of mergers and acquisitions led to the emergence of six large banking groups that account for a large share of the Canadian financial system. Over the past 20 years, these banks diversified their income and balance sheets by reducing the share of traditional deposit and lending activities and taking on more exposure to domestic and international financial markets. The soundness measures presented here\u2014based on \u201cdistance-to-default\u201d (DD) models\u2014 suggest that the rapid growth of the large banking groups during the second half of the 1990s was associated with a significant increase in their overall risk profile. More recently, however, their risk-adjusted returns appear to have improved, and their soundness was further underpinned by ongoing increases in capital adequacy ratios.1\nThe strong performance of the six large banking groups speaks to a high degree of resilience of the Canadian financial system. In 2001, financial market weakness following the demise of the high-tech stock-market bubble and the global slowdown affected the banks' performance. However, bank profitability recovered, and other financial soundness indicators continued to strengthen from already comfortable levels. Moreover, the relatively modest rise in default risk during the slowdown, compared with that during the Russian, Brazilian, and Long Term Capital Management (LTCM) crises of the late 1990s, suggests a strengthening of risk management practices on the part of the banks.\nThe Canadian banking sector is highly concentrated. The six large banking groups account for around 90 percent of Canadian deposits and banking assets. Based on mid-2004 balance-sheet data, the largest of these accounts for almost 25 percent of total banking assets, followed by four institutions each holding close to 15 percent of total assets. The sixth bank accounts for about 5 percent of total assets.\nThese banks went through a rapid growth spell in the second half of the 1990s, partly in response to legislative changes (Box 10.1). From the end of 1996 to the end of 2001, their deposit bases and total assets expanded by more than 50 percent. On the asset side, investments were channeled in particular into securities and mortgages. After 2001, however, balance sheet expansion slowed dramatically, in part for cyclical reasons.\nThe investment behavior of these banks since the mid-1990s is the continuation of a longer trend reflecting the expansion of their fee-earning businesses. As part of their growth and diversification strategy, they aquired mortgage loan companies, securities businesses, and trust companies (Calmes, 2004). Through this process, they expanded their links to financial markets and, in particular, their exposure to equity markets. In mid-2004, securities accounted for 27 percent of total assets, compared with 19 percent at the end of 1996 (Table 10.1).2\nTable 10.1.Balance Sheet Items of Six Large Banking Groups\n(In percent, unless otherwise noted)1\nIn billions of Canadian dollars 1,015 1,438 1,587 1,628 1,627 1,671\nAnnual percent change2 9.1 10.4 2.6 \u22120.1 2.7\nAs percent of GDP 121.3 133.5 143.2 140.6 133.5 129.4\nAggregate balance sheet shares\nSecurities 19.0 23.4 25.2 24.7 27.4 26.8\nNon-mortgage loans 41.0 37.2 36.0 34.6 31.0 32.7\nMortgage loans 19.9 19.3 19.3 20.0 21.2 21.4\nDeposits 68.2 67.6 66.6 66.1 65.8 67.1\nNet income before tax3 1.0 1.0 0.8 0.6 0.9 1.2\nNet interest income/total net income 60.6 39.5 40.9 43.6 47.9 47.2\nCapital adequacy ratio4 9.2 11.7 12.3 12.3 13.3 13.4\nSource: Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions.\n1 Figures as of year-end, except for 2004, for which figures are for June.\n2 Figure for 2000 is the average during 1996\u20132000.\n3 As percent of total assets.\n4 In percent of risk-weighted assets.\nThe six large banking groups also acquired substantial foreign investments. Consistent with many analysts' view that the Canadian market does not offer sufficient banking economies of scale, these banks sought to expand their business abroad. During the 10 years ending in 2004, their foreign securities holdings grew at roughly three times the pace of domestic securities. While accumulating large U.S. dollar exposures in general, they also acquired extensive direct investments in the United States and the Caribbean.\nThe counterpart to this portfolio shift was a sharp decline in the relative importance of the banks' traditional lending business, excluding mortgages. Increases in nonmortgage lending barely kept pace with inflation after the mid-1990s, notwithstanding rapid growth in the banks' deposit base. This was only partly offset by mortgage lending that expanded in line with, or even faster than, the total asset base. As a result, in 2004 the banks' net interest income accounted for less than half of total net income, compared with about 60 percent in the mid-1990s.\nBox 10.1.Changes in Canada's Financial Sector Legislation\nThe rapid growth of the large banking groups has been facilitated by changes to Canada's financial sector legislation:\nAmendments to the regulatory framework in 1987 and 1992 removed legal barriers separating the activities of various types of financial institutions, allowing Canadian financial institutions to develop into financial conglomerates (Freedman, 1998).\nIn 2001, limitations on investment in nonfinancial business were relaxed, and a holding company regime was introduced. At the same time, a new merger review policy was introduced, mainly in response to the government's 1998 decision not to allow two mergers involving four of Canada's largest banks (Ministry of Finance, 1998; Group of Ten, 2001).\nThe new policy raised the ownership limit to 20 percent for voting shares and 30 percent for nonvoting shares and loosened the requirement that large banks be widely held, while retaining the requirement that no investor hold a majority share in the bank (Daniel, 2002).\nThe Canadian regulatory and supervisory regime is subject to regular reviews in order to keep pace with the changing technological and market environment. Canada's financial legislation contains sunset clauses that prescribe periodic reassessments and updating of the regulatory framework that governs the financial system. In the past, the review used to take place every 10 years. In 1992, the review period was shortened to five years and extended to the legislation governing all federal financial institutions.\nThese trends and strategies are not unique to large banking groups in Canada. Most of the large financial institutions in the United States and elsewhere also expanded their securities and mortgage businesses and consequently derive a greater share of their income from fees and other non-interest sources (IMF, 2004c).\nForeign and financial market exposures contributed to significant strains in the banking sector after the stock market bubble burst in the early 2000s. Although the downturn of the Canadian economy was relatively mild, non-interest income growth dropped from over 25 percent a year between 1996 and 2000 to virtually zero between 2001 and 2003. With impaired assets and loan loss provisions up sharply, return on equity for the banking system as a whole fell from 15.8 percent in 1999 to 9.4 percent in 2002, but has since rebounded (Table 10.2).\nTable 10.2.Vulnerability Indicators of the Banking System1\nTotal loans to assets (percent) 62.8 58.4 58.7 57.7 55.8 55.6 53.8\nTotal loans to deposits (percent) 92.5 90.2 86.8 84.2 84.5 83.1 81.3\nImpaired assets/total assets 0.68 0.66 0.59 0.60 0.84 0.90 0.64\nLoan loss provision (in percent of total assets) 0.18 0.20 0.23 0.27 0.37 0.57 0.23\nTotal foreign currency assets/total assets2 41.5 46.4 40.2 40.5 42.7 41.4 36.2\nTotal foreign currency liabilities/total assets2 43.5 47.7 42.4 42.2 44.7 43.8 37.7\nTotal foreign currency deposits/total assets2 30.7 32.2 31.3 29.5 30.4 28.9 25.6\nReturn on total shareholders' equity (percent) 16.4 13.4 15.8 15.3 13.9 9.4 14.7\nAverage intermediation spread 2.9 2.6 2.7 2.9 3.0 3.0 3.1\nNet interest income (in percent of average total assets) 2.1 1.8 1.8 1.8 1.9 2.0 1.9\nSources: Bloomberg; Canadian Bankers Association; Haver Analytics; and Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions.\n1 Unless otherwise indicated, based on data reported by the six largest chartered Canadian banks, which account for more than 90 percent of the total market share.\n2 All chartered banks.\nNevertheless, throughout both the growth spell and subsequent slowdown, Canada's large banking groups continued to build up capital relative to risk-weighted assets. Their total capital increased by about 70 percent between 1996 and 2001, translating into a rise in the average capital ratio from 9.2 percent to 12.3 percent. Following a drop in both capital and risk-weighted assets in 2002, the average capital ratio increased to 13.3 percent in 2003, boosted by increases in capital and a further decline in risk-weighted assets. Throughout the period, all banks remained substantially above the minimum capital requirements set in the 1988 Basel capital accords.\nThe banks have also reduced their off-balance-sheet activities. Prior to 1998, they took on increasing exposures in the derivatives markets and also boosted other off-balance-sheet exposures. These were scaled back in subsequent years, following the Russia and Brazil crises and the LTCM collapse. With one exception, these banks have not expanded\u2014and in some cases made further sizable contractions in\u2014their off-balance-sheet activity since 1999.\nDespite similar features, the business strategies of the six large banking groups have not been identical and financial performance has been varied. Two of these, the largest and one of the mid-tier banks, deviated from the other institutions in that they built up their securities portfolio share more rapidly and reduced their share of mortgage loans. The financial performance of these two institutions has been quite different. The largest bank appeared to weather the post-2000 slowdown relatively comfortably, whereas profitability in the other bank\u2014which had the fastest growing balance sheet and the most rapid buildup of securities investments of all six large banks\u2014was quite volatile, culminating in pretax losses in 2002. One other bank\u2014the one with the fastest growing exposure to the mortgage market\u2014also saw its profits fall to a very low level in 2002, whereas the other three institutions experienced only mild dips in profitability.\nThe large banking groups' business strategies affect the financial soundness of both these individual institutions and the financial system as a whole. Increased diversification, both internationally and across different business lines, should in principle yield better risk profiles for financial institutions. But when diversification takes place at the expense of either lower capital or profitability, on one hand, or increased earnings volatility, on the other, financial soundness may not necessarily improve\u2014as reflected in the performance of individual banks. Moreover, were all the large banks to diversify in the same direction, the system's overall vulnerability to large, common shocks (that is, the risk of several banks experiencing distress at the same time) could increase even if each bank were individually better hedged against risks.\nThis subsection evaluates trends in the vulnerability of Canada's financial system using a market-based soundness indicator. The indicator, which was estimated for the period 1991\u20132003, is based on DD models commonly used in the finance literature and increasingly reported in central bank financial stability reports. DD is a composite measure computed as the sum of the return on the estimated market value of assets and the capital-to-assets ratio at market prices, divided by the volatility of assets.3 It thus combines measures of profitability, balance sheet strength, and market uncertainty. A higher DD indicates an improvement in financial soundness at the company level, for example, because of improved profitability, a higher capital ratio, or reduced volatility\u2014or a combination of all three.4 Although DD measures are sensitive to variations in the underlying assumptions, they have been shown to predict supervisory ratings, bond spreads, and rating agencies' downgrades.5\nThe analysis provides a number of conclusions regarding the impact of evolving business strategies on large banking groups' financial soundness:\nThere appears to be no trend movement in the average DD for the six large banking groups (LBGs) since 1990 (Figure 10.1). Although the DD narrowed sharply in the late 1990s, as a substantial deterioration in the risk-adjusted return outweighed rising capital ratios, the average risk profile improved significantly in subsequent years. Overall, this suggests that shifting business strategies and changing balance sheet structures have not led to a noticeable increase or decrease in average default probabilities for the large banking groups.\nWith one notable exception, there has been no tendency for risk to concentrate in the largest banks. Risk concentration can be measured as the difference between the weighted and unweighted average of DDs over all six institutions, with weights given by each bank's share of total market valuation. A decline in this measure indicates a concentration of risk in the largest banks, and vice versa. For most of the period observed, this measure of concentration was unchanged. However, it dropped in 2002, owing to a substantial reduction in the market valuation of two of the largest LBGs.6 The subsequent spike highlighted risks in two of Canada's important banks, even though average soundness measures for the sector remained satisfactory (see Figure 10.5).\nRisk profiles of the large banking groups do not appear to have converged. The standard deviation of DD indicators for the six banks does not exhibit a trend over the past 15 years. In fact, a rising standard deviation suggests that banks' risk profiles have diverged somewhat in the last few years.\nThe large banking groups appear resilient to common shocks. A \u201csystem\u201d DD can be computed using market measures of return and volatility for the aggregate subsector and its capital-asset ratio. As such, it measures the default risk of an entity whose balance sheet is the aggregate of all the large banking groups' balance sheets. The system DD is almost always substantially higher than the average DD, indicating that correlations between the portfolios of the different banks are low, and hence that the group of large banks as a whole remains well diversified (Figure 10.2). The exception was around 2000, when a relatively high correlation among individual DD measures\u2014reflecting the broad-based decline in equity prices\u2014implied that the system as a whole fared no better than individual large banks. However, the difference between the system and average DD subsequently rebounded to above its long-term average.\nHowever, high correlation of DD measures across sectors suggests that the broader financial system typically has a high degree of common risk exposure. In particular, the correlation between system DDs of the banking and insurance sectors is mostly around unity, suggesting that risks across the financial sector are closely aligned (Figure 10.3).7 In effect, most of the time, the fortunes of the large banking groups and other financial institutions are expected to follow similar paths. Risks in the banking sector and in the nonfinancial sector also tend to be positively correlated\u2014with the notable exception of the period between 1999 and 2001, when market sentiment turned against financial institutions well ahead of the general fall in the stock market.\nFigure 10.1Average Distance to Default (DD) of Large Banking Groups\nFigure 10.2System DD Minus Average DD of Large Banking Groups\nNote: DD = distance to default.\nFigure 10.3Correlation between Banking and Insurance Sector DDs\nThe relatively strong performance of financial soundness indicators for large Canadian banks likely reflects improvements in risk management. Perhaps surprisingly at first sight, given the banks' increased exposure to stock markets, the deterioration of DD indicators after 2000 was relatively modest. In particular, the decline in the average DD\u2014signaling a rise in vulnerability\u2014was much less than the drop following the Russian default, Brazil crisis, or LTCM collapse in 1998 and 1999, when market volatility of bank valuations increased substantially. This observation is consistent with anecdotal evidence that large Canadian banks, like other large and internationally active banks, have improved their risk-management capabilities in recent years, strengthening their ability to absorb the impact of shocks on their balance sheets (see, for example, Bank of International Settlements, 2002).\nThe broad trends in financial soundness indicators in Canada have much in common with those in the United States. Large banking groups in both countries have undergone rapid growth and similar structural shifts in their balance sheets. During the second half of the 1990s, this expansion was accompanied by almost identical declines in average DD measures for U.S. and Canadian large banking groups (Figure 10.4).8 Since 2000, DDs in both countries have been volatile, although on average they have increased by a greater amount in the Canadian case\u2014which may reflect a somewhat stronger build-up of capital ratios. Nonetheless, differences between the two countries are small, and large banking groups in both countries have come through the recent testing period of economic downturn and financial market distress with strengthened soundness indicators.\nFigure 10.4Average DD in Canada and the United States\nIn contrast to the United States, structural change does not appear to have led to an increase in risk concentration in the Canadian banking system. In Canada, the risk-concentration measure (weighted minus unweighted average DD) has been relatively unchanged since the beginning of the 1990s (Figure 10.5). In essence, the Canadian system has remained dominated by the same number of players, broadly equal in size and with relatively independent risk profiles. By contrast, risk concentration in the United States increased markedly in the second half of the 1990s, owing in part to consolidation\u2014on the same scale, the temporary increase in risk concentration in the Canadian system in 2002 noted above is much smaller.\nFigure 10.5Risk Concentration in Canada and the United States\nThis analysis suggests that substantial growth and structural change in the Canadian banking sector have not added to systemic risk over time. Default risk did rise significantly when balance sheets expanded rapidly in the second half of the 1990s. However, helped by the ongoing buildup of additional capital and seemingly improved risk management practices, risk profiles have subsequently recovered. Moreover, the large banking groups' individual risk profiles have remained relatively uncorrelated, notwithstanding that their business strategies have shared many common features, and risk concentration has not on average increased. However, with a relatively small number of players, each individual large bank is of systemic consequence. A close correlation of risk profiles between banks and insurance companies implies that the financial sector as a whole remains exposed to common sources of risks.\nPrepared with research assistance from Marianne El-Khoury.\nThis reflects an increase in the share of assets devoted to securities for all except one bank.\nEstimates of the market value of assets are based on the structural valuation model of Black and Scholes (1973) and Merton (1974) and were computed using the estimation procedure described in Vassalou and Xing (2004) using daily market and annual accounting data.\nTwo caveats apply. First, the DD as employed here does not take into account the stochastic interest rate risk stemming from the correlation between the risk-free rate and the value of a company's assets. As this is potentially another important source of risk for banks, risks might be underestimated in this analysis. See Liu, Papakirykos, and Yuan (2004) for an extension incorporating interest rate risk. Second, as the DD is based on market data, the DDs for large banking groups can be subject to large fluctuations, which tend to be associated with the business cycle and \u201cexpectation cycles\u201d regarding future earnings prospects.\nSee Krainer and Lopez (2001); Gropp, Vesala, and Vulpes (2002); and Chan-Lau, Jobert, and Kong (2004).\nIf balance sheet valuations of assets are used to weight the DDs, the downward spike largely disappears. However, the use of market valuations seems preferable for diagnostic purposes because the objective is to capture the market's assessment of risk.\nCorrelations are computed using daily data and a one-year rolling window.\nFor more analysis of DD measures in the United States, see IMF (2004c).",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb PIllows \u00bb 5 of the Best Rated Memory Foam Pillows: Top Picks\n5 of the Best Rated Memory Foam Pillows: Top Picks\nMemory foam pillows are somewhat of a luxury, but they are worth the expense. Before you begin searching for the best rated memory foam pillows there are some things you will need to consider in order to make your search less complicated.\nThese are a few of the considerations you should think about before buying the perfect pillow for you.\nIso-Pedic Memory Foam Pillow\nDC Labs Memory Foam Contour Pillow\nUltra Slim Sleeper Memory Foam Edition\nSmarter Rest Memory Foam Pillow\nWhy should I consider buying a memory foam pillow?\nWhat are the reasons you are considering buying a memory foam pillow? Many people agree that the comfort and the quality rank above most, but there may be other reasons for your search for a good memory foam pillow.\nMany people who suffer from neck pain or headaches choose this option. The memory foam conforms to your own personal fit, which allows the level of comfort to be all about you. It is activated by body heat which means when you are done sleeping on it, it will go back to the original shape.\nShould I shop online or go to a store?\nDeciding where to shop is important. There are pros and cons to both, and it basically comes down to what you personally prefer. Remember this is something you will need to use daily. The choice is something only you can make, outside influences do not matter.\nShopping online allows you to read reviews, get specifics from research, and avoid the pushy salespeople who work on commission.\nNow that memory foam pillows are more popular, they are stocked almost everywhere. The downfall to shopping at a store is that you may not be able to get the best price available on the product.\nKnow your foam...\nHere's some great info about what memory foam actually feels like (in case you've never felt it before).\nWhat size pillow do you need?\nThe size of your bed will help point you in the direction for what size memory foam pillow you will need. If you have a queen or smaller, a standard size will work. King size beds need king pillows, but in a pinch you could buy three instead of two to offset the size ratio.\nThe position you sleep in can add to your ailments. It is important that you identify whether or not you are a back sleeper, side sleeper, or a stomach sleeper. While some memory foam pillows are not ideal for stomach sleepers, you may still be able to find one you would be comfortable with.\nSide sleepers will need a thicker pillow to support both the neck and the head. Back sleepers need to fully support their head. Knowing where you stand here will make the search easier on both you and anyone assisting you.\nEveryone has a preference when it comes to firmness where they sleep. If you prefer something softer than will conform to you, memory foam is definitely the way to go. There are certain manufacturers that offer firmness options, and finding one of them may be beneficial if you want softer or firmer comfort for your pillow.\nDo I need to buy anything else along with the pillow?\nYou may be curious about whether or not you will need a memory foam mattress or mattress topper. The simple answer is no. While adding those would bring you the maximum level of comfort, searching out a good memory foam pillow is the first step. You can always add the other products at a later time.\nYou may want to consider buying a pillow protector, especially if you have children or animals in the home.\nMemory foam pillows are made well, but it is always been to err on the side of caution when spending money on something you normally wouldn't splurge on. You can find protectors both in store or online depending on your shopping preference.\nAs long as you keep your priorities focused when searching for memory foam pillows, you will likely find one that fits your needs.\nPurchasing something like this should not be rushed and if your first search turns up empty-handed, don't be discouraged. You don't want to settle for something just because you found it first.\nThese are some of the top memory foam pillows and information about each. There are always pros and cons to an item, so make sure you are willing to have things balance out when it comes right down to it.\nReviews of Some Top Memory Foam Pillows\nThis memory foam pillow comes in queen size, which can be used for a queen bed or small. The fact that it has a bamboo cover is a huge bonus. If you have medical issues that are requiring you to purchase a memory foam pillow, this may be one of the better options for you.\nUpon opening this purchase, you may get a bit of a plastic smell. It will fade over time, lasting just a few days at most. You may find that your standard size pillow case is too small for this, but you can still use it if it is a must. It is recommended that you purchase a pillow case to go along with it, but it isn't needed if your budget doesn't allow for it.\nIt is light and easy to carry from point of delivery to your bedroom. It comes vacuum-sealed, so do not be alarmed when you notice the package is completely flat.\nIf you are looking for something with a warranty this may be one of your better options. It comes with a 5-year guarantee, which is a great feature. It also comes with a mask and earplugs as a small token gift for purchasers.\nThere is a wave-shape contour associated with this pillow. Some people will love it, while others aren't too crazy about it. This is something to consider before purchasing this particular item, especially if this will be your first memory foam pillow purchase.\nIt offers a little more density than other memory foam pillows, and is thinner than others as well. It will fit in a standard pillowcase so there is no need to buy anything new. It is smaller than most standard pillows, which allows it to be easier to travel with.\nNight Therapy Adjustable Memory Foam Pillow\nThis is a great choice for someone who is a side sleeper, especially if you have a softer and more airy mattress. It is light and airy, but not overly squishy. There is a cut out for your neck worked into the pillow so your positioning will be just right most of the time. This is a huge bonus for people who have a hard time figuring out positioning for the maximum benefit.\nIf you are experiencing neck pain, this may be one to put on your short list. It may take some time to alleviate your pain, but it is definitely possible. Talk to your doctor to see if you think this may be a good fit.\nAs with most things that are packaged and shipped, there may be a small odor associated with the memory foam pillow. This should disappear in a few days, sometimes even within hours.\nThis pillow comes with three removable inserts, which will help you to find the right position to lay in. You can remove them if they are bothersome, but generally they should remain inside the pillow.\nMemory Foam Traditional Pillow by Best Price Mattress\nThis is a basic pillow that will fit the need of someone who is truly on a budget. It is actually a two-pack, which is a huge bonus for the price. It will fit a standard pillowcase with no issues.\nThese may be a little harder than you would expect from a memory foam pillow but once they are broken in, the comfort will go up tenfold. You will be able to conform them to your individual needs, which always makes for a better sleep experience.\nIf you are a hot sleeper, it will help you regulate your temperature. Sweaters do not need to worry about staining up this memory foam pillow but if you are a little worried, you can find a cover either online or at the store.\nIt is made from traditional memory foam, not shredded. This may make a difference when you are choosing the right pillow for your needs.\nMemory Foam Pillow By Exceptional Sheets\nThis is one of the better options when it comes to memory foam pillows because it allows you to know the density. This particular one is three pounds, which is pretty standard. All of the dimensions are available for you to see prior to ordering.\nThere are two versions, the high loft is the softer of the two. You will need to choose whether or not you want a little sinking action when you sleep or a firmer surface.\nIf you are suffering from neck issues and are a side sleeper, this may be one you should consider. While it doesn't promise to cure it, it may help with the aching necks and lessen the pain when you wake up in the morning.\nThis memory foam pillow is a little smaller than a standard pillow. It won't affect the case situation, but you may want to consider how much room you want your pillow to have once you lay your head down. If not having excess pillow around you as you sleep is an issue, you may want to reassess.",

Your staff can have everything they need as soon as the space is rented.\nWhen you have a small business, you may begin your adventure in a home office. There may be one or two computers and a couple of people that help you out. When more people discover your company, a period of growth occurs. This may happen suddenly. The increase in revenue can be incredibly helpful, yet not quite enough to begin purchasing large amounts of equipment. You may also need to bring in more employees to help keep things under control. While you are in this period of transition, serviced offices in Sydney, CBD can be a great help. You have access to high quality equipment, and a place outside your home for employees.\nEventually, most companies need to upgrade to a larger space or start fresh with updated equipment. You may need to sell your old equipment, however, before you can justify the purchase of all new computers and printers. While you are working on securing the new items, you may need to find a temporary space for your employees to work. If your equipment is up for sale, a serviced office is a great solution. Everything you need to run your business is provided while you decide on a new space and new computers.\nWaiting for Funding\nIt can take time to secure a business loan. Your lender must review your application, credentials, and business plan. You cannot stop working, however, while this is taking place. A serviced office can help you to keep moving forward with your startup while you wait for funding. Even after you are approved, it can take a few weeks or months to choose an office space and purchase equipment. While you work on supplying your new offices with computers, printers, and copiers, your employees can be hard at work in a serviced office.\nServiced offices can help you get through times of transition. They can also be a great option for businesses that remain small. It may be more cost efficient to use a serviced office if you do not have the budget to purchase your own equipment. You may also be working on acquiring your own equipment. This may require that you wait for a loan. A serviced office can get you through to the next stage of business ownership. Don\u2019t miss a day of work with a serviced office rental.",

The numbers reveal that the company had net sales of \u20ac7.4 billion ($9.7 billion), down from \u20ac10.4 billion ($13.6 billion) at the start of last year. Net sales are down 30 percent year-on-year, which means the company's posting a loss of \u20ac1.3 billion ($1.7 billion) for the first three months of 2012. That loss is broken down as \u20ac772 million to restructure Nokia Siemens Networks, \u20ac101 million to restructure the Devices & Services and Location & Commerce departments, principally in shedding employees and relocating its factories to Asia. It had forecasted an operating margin of three percent below \"break even,\" and says it's likely to remain that way well into the second quarter.\nStephen Elop pointed out that much of the loss is due to both increased competition and the costs of restructuring, but also seemed to tacitly confirm rumors we'd heard that UK carriers have been resistant to Nokia's new direction, saying that establishing momentum in the country has been \"challenging.\" However, it's still promising to arrest the slump and in a statement to Moody's on Monday, the company pledged that it was prioritizing \"cash conservation\" exercises, although its liquid cash reserves have fallen 24% in a year, meaning that the company's only got \u20ac4.8 billion ($6.3 billion) put aside for a rainy day.\nIn this article: 2012, Business, Earnings, Espoo, Financials, Lumia, Lumia 610, Lumia 710, Lumia 800, Lumia 900, Lumia610, Lumia710, Lumia800, Lumia900, Microsoft, Nokia, Numbers, Q1, Q1 2012, Q12012, Stephen Elop, StephenElop, Windows Phone, WindowsPhone",

        "title": "How we helped a long-term client cut its AWS costs by 66% | Equal Experts",
        "raw_content": "Matt Ralph DevOps Consultant\nTech Focus Wed 5th September, 2018\nWe\u2019re often asked to help our clients build out their capability in the cloud or to help them reduce infrastructure costs. Being able to do both at the same time is the icing on the cake!\nOur work with one of our clients enabled it to reduce its monthly AWS spend by 66%, within 8 months. More satisfying still, we were able to do so while improving its cloud capability, steadily increasing availability and ramping up deployments fivefold, from an average of 3 to 15 per month.\nEqual Experts was initially engaged by the client to add features to its previous AWS-based customer rewards platform. However, given the ambitious scope of the work, it became clear that its previous infrastructure would not scale to meet its increasing performance requirements. Soon the engagement grew to include a complete rewrite, both of the client\u2019s platform and of its companion Business Analytics reporting platform.\nThe new platform has already been substantially road-tested by ticket sales for performances by major artists, and didn\u2019t break a sweat as we registered and enrolled 230% more new customers per second. As well as being much cheaper to run, it has also proved itself to be much simpler to manage and better performing due to all parts of the new platform being fully automated and simple to rebuild completely from scratch.\nThe client\u2019s cost reduction was achieved by performing a managed cutover to a set of completely new environments. The new environments leverage Docker in Swarm clusters and refactor the old code into microservices. These microservices can be scaled up and down independently of each-other; an nginx ingress tier and standard service-discovery-based load-balancing ensures that customer traffic is balanced across all available copies of a microservice. This also means that a container can be removed from the pool with no impact, making our deployments zero-downtime. The net result is much more efficient use of memory and compute in AWS. As both back-end and front-end microservices for the platform were moved to Docker across web, iOS and Android, this also made the platform more consistent and significantly reduced the complexity around change.\nAnother serious source of cost-saving was the decommissioning of an extensive Hadoop cluster used for business analytics and daily reports. The reports being run were fairly small and did not really require the overhead of MapReduce processing. Our Tech Lead produced a radically simplified solution using a single microservice to do the data processing and the platform\u2019s mongodb replica-set for storage.\nIn addition to huge cost savings (we decommissioned 10 extra-large Hadoop data nodes and 2 name nodes as well as about 25 other instances), the migration moved the client onto open-source, widely-used service-discovery and load-balancing solutions, away from proprietary end-of-life software packages. The Business Analytics solution, which used to have a feed failure on average twice a week, has had no transfer failures since it went live in November last year.\nThe client asked us to use this platform to roadshow a couple of other improvements it was working on internally; it\u2019s using us to test their new architecture patterns initiative and has designated us their only \u2018trusted team\u2019 currently, meaning that we don\u2019t need to give 24 hours\u2019 notice in order to make production changes. This is based on our high availability and very low mean time to fix, as well as the success rate of our deployments. This won\u2019t be the last client team to enjoy huge cost reduction with improved stability and agility.\nOverall this is a great example of how we can add value to our clients in a short time, whilst in parallel laying the groundwork for better infrastructure in the future that\u2019s consistent to manage, simple to maintain and can easily adapt to business opportunities.",

There will be no continuity\n2. There will be team dysfunction\n3. There will be defeated spirits\n4. There will be victim mentality (\u201cReferees are not fair\u201d) among the players\n5. The coach will eventually be replaced\nI ask you, do you have a game plan for living your life? Do items 1-4 describe you in any way? You know that item #5 can\u2019t happen\u2026you can\u2019t fire yourself from leading yourself. After all, only you can say what is most important to you. So, again, do you have a game plan?\nI asked myself these important questions: \u201cWhat are the things that only I can do? What are the things that I can instruct, delegate or train others to do?\u201d After I searched, prayed and mined out the answer to these questions, I found out that I was spending most of my time and energy on things that are not of value to me. I use the word value because I feel that everything else, although important, is not what I was put on this earth to accomplish. So here is my game plan:\nOnly I can be\u2026\n1. the one who can seek God with all my heart. Others can point and instruct, but only I can be the second person in this spiritual relationship\u2026I MUST SHOW UP!\n2. the one who can romance and love my wife the way she needs to be loved. I made a vow and for it to work in a real and thriving way\u2026I MUST SHOW UP!\n3. the one who has a vision for my ministry. Mentors are great and I have been blessed to have many. But none of them can hear my heart and the calling on my life. For my calling to keep moving forward\u2026I MUST SHOW UP!\n4. the connection point to my family and close friends. I have been blessed with a personality that encourages and uplifts people on and off stage. I must be there for these special people in my life. I need them and they need me. And for this spiritual connection to be organic and real\u2026I MUST SHOW UP!\n5. the one who can make me healthy. No one opens my mouth and shoves food in it. I am responsible for being healthy so that I can carry out what God has placed in my hands to do. And for me to be healthy\u2026I MUST SHOW UP!\nLadies and Gentlemen, it is that simple. These are the things I value most in my life. Everything else is important, but not the MOST important. Having a game plan lets me then take each of these 5 points and effectively set about carrying them out.\nYou will notice that I end each part of my plan with the phrase \u201cI Must Show Up!\u201d I do this because it is the discipline of showing up and doing the work that leads us to victorious life. No one can expect a harvest without ever planting a seed. No one can perform an original composition without writing and pouring their heart into the score. And you most definitely can\u2019t have a girlfriend (or boyfriend) without courting them and being a person they would want to spend their life with forever. We instinctively know and do all of these things when we are young. Don\u2019t let age and complacency settle into your life. Don\u2019t let setbacks and loss rob you of your zeal for rebuilding and having more \u201cglory days\u201d. Show up and do the hard work. Read, pray, love, embrace, forgive, invest, sweat and be a winner.\nAnd winning? What is winning? For me, it is being able to take my last breath and say\u2026\n\u201cThe time of my departure is at hand. I have fought the good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith. There is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, shall give me at that day.\u201d 2 Timothy 4:6-8\nThat\u2019s my game plan! Do you have one?",

        "raw_content": "Taylour Paige To Star In Film Based On Epic Twitter Story About Zola The Stripper\nNever say, \"It's just Twitter,\" again.\nBritni Danielle Oct, 10, 2018\nAziah \u201cZola\u201d King unleashed a 148-tweet tale about a weekend trip gone awry three years ago.\nIn her now infamous Twitter story, King chronicled the 48-hour excursion to Florida, which recounted an outlandish story full of pimps, strippers, guns, a suicide attempt, and real life human trafficking charges for one of its participants. King\u2019s enthralling narrative set the internet on fire, resulting in a Rolling Stone profile that caught the eye of Hollywood heavyweights who decided to turn it into a film.\nRELATED: Remember That Crazy Twitter Tale About Zola The Stripper? It\u2019s Officially Heading To The Big Screen\nRELATED: Best Twitter Reactions to The #Zola Story\nNow the project \u2014 currently titled, Zola \u2014 has found its star: Hit the Floor\u2019s Taylour Paige.\nJanicza Bravo, who\u2019s worked on FX\u2019s Atlanta, has been tapped to co-write and direct the film. She recently shared just what made Paige so perfect for this project.\n\u201cI\u2019m at a coffee shop in L.A. and in walks this girl. I\u2019m entranced and can\u2019t stop staring. It\u2019s the way she sits in her body. It\u2019s agency. It\u2019s self-possession \u2026 everything that drew me to telling this story,\u201d Bravo told The Hollywood Reporter. \u201cOne year later she auditions, and I knew instantly \u2014 like, I knew it then: After seeing 700 girls, the one meant to be finally walked in.\u201d\nA24, the company behind the film, talked up both women\u2019s ability to pull off the production.\n\u201cZola is an iconic, iconoclastic role, and Taylour and Janicza are exactly the people to bring the character to life,\u201d a statement from the company read. \u201cWe\u2019re thrilled to be working with them on this too-real-to-be-true saga, a defining and legendary entry in the deeply American road trip genre.\u201d\nBefore signing on to Zola, Paige has appeared in Hit the Floor, The Baxters, and HBO\u2019s Ballers. But this project will be her first starring role in a feature film.\nEarlier this year, the casting call described Zola as a \u201cBlack female, 19 years old. Commanding and sharp. Quick-witted. Waitress at Hooters. Oldest of 6 girls. Ex- stripper. Engaged to her boyfriend of 7 years. Afraid to settle. Able to weave in and out of most situations.\u201d\nNow that we have a leading lady, we can\u2019t wait to see Zola\u2019s crazy story on the big screen.\n# Entertainment # Taylour Paige # Zola",

        "raw_content": "A call for government transparency\nIn recognition of Sunshine Week (March 12-18), Missouri State Auditor Nicole Galloway today called on state and local government officials to renew commitments to the state's open records and government transparency laws, known as the Missouri Sunshine Law.\n\"Missourians have long agreed that government should operate with transparency and accountability, and that the people's business must be conducted in full view of its citizens,\" Galloway said. \"A government that operates in the shadows does a disservice to its people, and that's what the Sunshine Law was designed to prevent.\"\nSunshine Week is a nationwide initiative designed to draw attention to the importance of government transparency. Last fall Galloway released a report that found just 30 percent of local governments across the state complied with the Sunshine Law. Galloway called the results \"extremely disappointing\" and demanded government to do better.\n\"The Sunshine Law is about more than allowing citizens to see how government operates. It's about inviting them to be a part of the process,\" Galloway said. \"Sunshine Week is an important reminder that public officials at all levels of government have a shared responsibility to uphold this commitment to transparency.\"\nIndividuals with information related to potential violations of the Sunshine Law or other inappropriate activities in government may contact the State Auditor's Whistleblower Hotline by calling 800-347-8597, by emailing moaudit@auditor.mo.gov or by using the new online submission form at auditor.mo.gov/hotline.

        "raw_content": "Contrasts and Dreamscapes\nMusic Director Andris Nelsons\u2019s Thursday [April 9, 2014] BSO program, comprising a wide range of musical styles and eras, induced an enthusiastic reception in the nearly full house. The program will be repeated tonight (Friday), Saturday and next Tuesday.\nThe best-received of the three works was Richard Strauss\u2019s Ein Heldenleben (A Heroic Life), Op. 40, a six-part uninterrupted tone poem that gave the BSO an opportunity to bring its best colors and textures to a major work. The challenge was met under Nelsons\u2019s conducting\u2014athletic, wiry, but always in the service of the music, not the gallery.\nAn expanded orchestra attacked the stormy and violent passages, and treated the glorious crescendos as confidently as the quiet lyricism. Strauss walks through his hero\u2019s life, opening with a sketch of the subject, then moving to his adversaries (He had in mind some of the Berlin critics and hoped they recognized themselves), then his companions. Violinist Malcolm Lowe interpreted the intimate portrait of Strauss\u2019s muse, his wife Pauline, inspired by instructions in the score to render her flippant, tender, gay, emotional, nagging and loving, among other aspects.\nWithout pause, the tone poem goes on to portray the hero\u2019s Battlefield, Works of Peace, concluding with his Escape from the World and Fulfillment. At the end, the breathtaking descent into pianissimo hung in the air for a few seconds before the audience erupted in a standing ovation, with whistles and shouts and a few stomps. Nelsons took the applause and graciously called on a dozen soloists to stand and bow, one by one.\nRichard Goode, a much-admired Mozartean, delivered an emotional version of Mozart\u2019s Piano Concerto No. 27 in B-flat Major (K. 595) retaining Mozart\u2019s cadenzas in the first and third movements. Goode\u2019s subtle rubatos and controlled dynamics tugged at the clean lines and shifting moods, brouging meaning to passages that are often rendered hurriedly and far less memorably. The Allegro final movement displays Mozart\u2019s desire to please audiences rather than simply challenge them, and Goode grasped the intent. His lilting feather touch on the Steinway seemed perfectly in sync with the vivacious music. Nelsons and Goode clearly had a meeting of the minds. Nelson was equally comfortable with the concerto, conducting from memory and literally dancing on the podium. The work is generally accepted as Mozart\u2019s last piano concerto and was performed once with himself at the piano, early in 1791. It was his last public performance; he died in December of that year at age 35.\nAndris Nelsons and Richard Googe, Dominick Reuter photo\nGunther Schuller\u2019s Dreamscape, a three-movement work premiered by the Tanglewood Music Center Orchestra in 2012, got its first performance by the BSO, complete with an expanded orchestra crowded onto the Symphony Hall stage. Among the special instrumentation were four piccolos, four bassoons, including a contrabassoon that got one solo honk for laughs, and six percussionists who kept busy with sleigh bells, tom toms, four Chinese gongs, ratchet, glockenspiel, bell tree and a lion\u2019s roar, among other things. The result was a witty opening movement (Scherzo Umoristico e Curioso), followed by a calming and dark second movement, in which the BSO\u2019s augmented strings ooze in tandem with reeds and two harps. It ended with a slowly evolving third, all completed in 11 minutes. Chuckles rippled through the audience as Schuller\u2019s musical jokes unfurled, including a quote from Tchaikovsky\u2019s The Nutcracker. Nelsons evidently enjoyed this BSO premiere as well, virtually enveloping the large orchestra with his long arms as he shaped the changing moods.\nDreamscape was commissioned by the Tanglewood Music Center for the 75th anniversary of Tanglewood. The prolific Schuller, now approaching 90, is modest about his compositional technique. As he wrote in his program note, \u201c\u2026 the entire work\u2014yes, the entire work\u2014was presented to me in a dream, not just little bits of it but ranging from its overall form and conception to an amazing amount of specific detail.\u201d\nLooking frail and rising with a cane, Schuller took his bows from the audience. I spoke to him at intermission and learned that he is still composing and is proud to have completed 20 works in the past two years.\nSchuller bows following his \u201cDreamscape, Dominick Reuter photo.\nSchuller\u2019s experience with the subconscious in repose was remarkable but not unique. Stravinsky said the theme of The Soldier\u2019s Tale came to him in a dream, as did the concept for the death dance in Rite of Spring. Lesser composers like to blog of their creative \u201clucid music\u201d dreams, which sometimes send them hurtling to the piano at 3 a.m. to capture a few bars. It is rare, however, for a complete composition to emerge from a single dream. Schuller acknowledges that he had to scribble notes for about ten minutes before all faded away.\nIn an exclusive interview for the Intelligencer, Schuller said late Friday afternoon that he found Nelsons interpretation of Dreamscape \u201ceighty percent of what I wrote.\u201d The performance, he added, was \u201cextraordinary but not fully realized.\u201d With each subsequent performance, he said, he expects it further to approach his expectations.\nHe praised Nelsons and the orchestra for mastering the \u201cunbelievably complex score\u201d with the limited rehearsal time orchestras have today.

        "raw_content": "And Another Word Or Two\nContinuing some Fannin County miscellanies:\nJefferson Davis, President of the Confederate States of America, was much admired in Texas, not only by those men who fought for the southern cause in the Civil War, but also by the population in general. As a mark of their respect and admiration, state officials offered Davis the presidency of Texas A & M College when that institution was first created. Davis declined the position.\nUpon learning of Davis' death in 1889, the Fannin County Commissioners Court \"ordered that the Fannin County Courthouse be suitably draped.\" Nothing exists to tell us what the suitable draping was but it is assumed that some sort of black crepe was probably placed over the doorways and windows.\nOne unfortunate incident occured when Davis' body was lying in state in New Orleans on December 7, 1889. That day a traveling theatrical troupe arrived in Bonham on the T & P Cannonball with plans for a production that evening at Russell's Opera House on the north side of the square. (Where Bonham Office Supply is located.)\nIn a perfect example of poor timing, it was announced that the evening's presentation would be a performance of \"Uncle Tom's Cabin.\" Indignant citizens immediately stormed the manager's office demanding that the performance be cancelled. The manager informed the protesters that because of contractural obligations the show would proceed as scheduled.\nAs curtain time approached only six paying customers were in attendance. However, the street in front of the opera house was packed with a mob of men and boys armed with giant firecrackers, horns, whistles, drums, tin cans, pots and pans, and anything else that would produce a loud disruptive noise.\nSoon after the curtain rose, six men filed into the theater brandishing firearms. Taking careful aim they shot out most of the lights, (electric or oil?) The sounds of gunfire served as a signal to the crowd below who then began producing noise in such fearful volume as to effectively curtail any thoughts of the performance continuing.\nReportedly the actress playing Little Eva fled down the back stairs accompanied by the bloodhounds which were a part of the company. She later made her way back to the hotel where the company was quartered, possibly The Burney House which was located just behind Russell's.\nOther actors playing Simon Legree, Uncle Tom, and Topsy fled to the outskirts of town. The company later returned to the dressing rooms, collected their belongings and left town on the next train out.\nNo one was injured and obviously the participants had meant no harm to the actors. What was intended was a clear warning to theatrical managers and others that the citizens of Bonham were very resolute in ther judgement of what was right and wrong.\nIn November of 1889 two items appeared in local newspapers which were of major interest to the citizens of Bonham.\nOn November 6, The Farmer's Review printed a brief article on page 3. \"The reporter of the REVIEW went out to the electric light works yesterday and found everything progressing nicely. The engine and boiler are being placed in position. The building is nearly completed and it will now be only a few days until the Bonham people will have the gratification of seeing the electric lights shining.\"\nThe Bonham News reported on November 22, \"By the middle of next week the electric lights will be shining on our streets. The boiler arrived last week and is being put into place. The wires are nearly up.\"\nEdison's \"miracle\" made it to Bonham, not on the 1885 date as pronounced by other historians but at the beginning of the last decade of the nineteenth century. The power plant was located in Russell Heights, northwest Bonham, near old Lake St. Clair. Initially most of the lighting was around the square and in the businesses just off the square. The residential areas were slower to install the new wonder and even well into the twentieth century many homes in Bonham were still relying on the kerosene lamp.\nIt appears that Honey Grove was somewhat slower in electricity to its citizens. The March 19, 1897 edition of The Bonham News carried the following article: \" Honey Grove has just completed a good electric light plant and turned on the lights for the first time last week. The Signal says that Honey Grove is one of the best lighted towns having 20 arc lights on the streets. The plant belongs to the city and it is expected that patronage from citizens will pay for it.\"\nToday with the touch of a button we can be witnesses to battles as they occur around the world, see the destruction from the latest earthquake in China, or watch the coronation of a monarch in some story-book European municipality. Television, more than any other invention has allowed the public to be instantly aware of news as it happens.\nOur nineteenth century ancestors were dependent primarily on one source of information, the local weekly newspaper. On the Texas frontier the daily chronicle was a rarity during much of that century especially in the small towns.\nThese papers are a curiosity in comparison with today's journalistic efforts. Each seemed to follow a certain form rarely exceeding four to six pages. Pages one and two contained national and international news gleaned from exchange papers received in the local newsroom. Often this news was weeks or even months old before it found its way into print locally. Page three contained local news and long columns of personal notices. Page four was devoted to serialized stories and a number of lengthy testimonials for one patent medicine or another. Local advertisers could be found on all the pages with business cards making up the bulk of local advertising.\nAt least nineteen papers were published in Bonham between 1842 and 1900. Many of these seemed to have been short-lived. Four papers existed of which we have little or no knowledge, \"The Daily Pick,\" The Daily Dinner-Horn,\" \"The Centipede,\" and \"Farm and Fireside.\" If anyone has knowledge of these papers we would appreciate the information.",

        "raw_content": "Ignoring the data again ...\nAfter the recent cover story in Time about the benefits of marriage for children and society, some have decided to attack the author and the idea that marriage is an institution worth preserving and encouraging.\nThis piece in The Nation by Katha Pollitt reads like a lot of sarcastic noise. While it is successful at being snarky, it, like most articles of its kind, ignores decades of social science research that show that marriage is best for children. The article ignores the data on the benefits of marriage and the negative effects of divorce and out-of-wedlock birth so that it does not have to confront, head on, a very simple idea - children do best when their parents get and stay married. If this is not the case, someone needs to produce a body of research that shows otherwise - I have not seen it yet.\nThis article, predictably, offers no data of its own, just meaningless comparisons to other countries (where, by the way, cohabitation is a completely different beast than it is here in the U.S.).\nPollitt also lists several other solutions to improving child well being that she says are more attainable than improving marriages or reducing divorces. You have to see the list for yourself, but the items are far from 'no-brainers' that could be easily implemented. For example, she says that we can achieve \"Neighborhoods safe enough for kids to play outdoors and air clean enough so they don't get asthma.\" Needless to say, we have been trying to create safe neighborhoods and clean air for decades, to no avail (ironically, the cause of much neighborhood violence is fatherless boys acting out).\nWould Pollitt give up as easily on the idea of creating safe neighborhoods as she does on strengthening marriage because it is \"hard to do\"?\nTopics: research, cohabitation",

It was difficult and it was one of those games that just got away from us.\n\u201cWe\u2019re a bit ahead of them in the league table, but there are no easy games in this league.\n\u201cYou just take it one game at a time and you never underestimate the opposition, no matter who you are playing.\n\u201cYou\u2019ve got to prepare and treat every game in the same way \u2013 it doesn\u2019t matter if you\u2019re playing the team at the top of the league or the team at the bottom.\u201d\nDespite a five-game run without a win during November, Buesa points out that the team are still in a healthy position in the league.\n\u201cWe\u2019re still up there. I know we lost a few points during that poor run last month but we\u2019re still within striking distance of the top three so we just need to keep on getting points and try and work our way back up again and close the gap.\n\u201cWe made a great start. The boys were really enjoying it and everything was going well for us.\n\u201cWe were flying and then we hit a little bump. You can\u2019t win every game so you just need to battle though it.\nHefty fine and suspension for Fife Flyers after post-game brawl against Storm\n\u201cWe did that down in Manchester then up here against Coventry before that little hiccup against MK, but hopefully we can get back to winning ways against Guildford this weekend.\u201d\nHaving found the net again, Buesa is now looking to improve upon his own form.\nHe said, \u201cI\u2019ve been playing OK I think. I\u2019m still one of the younger guys and I\u2019m still learning.\n\u201cIt\u2019s my first year here, and to be playing during the 80th anniversary season has been pretty special. I\u2019ve been looking back at the club\u2019s history so it\u2019s really an honour to be playing here.\n\u201cI\u2019ve been loving it so every day I\u2019ve been showing up and working hard and I think I\u2019ve been improving. I think I\u2019ve been holding my own. I\u2019m full-time so I\u2019ve no excuses!\u201d\nFlyers now head into a one game weekend when the welcome Guildford Flames to Fife Ice Arena.\n\u201cIt\u2019s nice to know that we\u2019ve no travelling to do this weekend.\u201d Buesa says, \u201cIt\u2019s only one game as well so there\u2019s nothing to hold back for \u2013 we need to go out and give everything we\u2019ve got.\n\u201cDuring a two game weekend you don\u2019t really think about the following day once you\u2019re on the ice, but leading up to a one game weekend gives you a little extra boost.\n\u201cLooking ahead, we can definitely get back to the form we showed at the beginning of the season.\u201d",

I believe if investors can learn just a little bit more about how to think like a business person, the better our investing results can be.\nFocus on numbers OR people\nAs investors, we tend to focus more on the numbers because we are sitting behind annual reports and spreadsheets rather than with the employees and customers of businesses. We place heavier emphasis on the profit margins, revenue, dividends, and many other financial metrics.\nYet, most business people I have spoken to place more attention on the human aspects of a business. How can they attract the best employees? How can they motivate and retain their staff? How can they improve customers\u2019 service experience? These are just some of the questions they think about and try to find practical solutions to.\nImportantly for investors, none of these things can be detected easily just by looking at the numbers produced by a company.\nFocus on the past OR the future\nInvestors love data. Unfortunately, all data is based on the past. Inevitably, many investors end up focusing too much on data and thus the past history of a company. I\u2019ve seen many investing mistakes result from the assumption that the future will be the same as the past. For example, if a company has been growing at 10% per year, many investors will simply assume that this will be the case going forward.\nBusiness people, on the other hand, would use data to understand how to continue growing a business. They tend to go one step further in the thinking process by digging into the \u201chow\u201d of growing a business.\nFocus on risk OR opportunity\nMost value investors I meet are mostly risk-adverse. They focus on the risks inherent in the companies they invest in and what could go wrong with an investment. There is nothing wrong with this approach \u2013 but it is rather different from how business people look at things.\nMany successful business people laser in on the opportunities lying ahead. Sure \u2013 there may be huge risks, but if the opportunities are big enough, they would conclude that the risks are worth taking. Business people are also people of action and they believe that the future is up to them to create, not something to wait around for.\nI feel that the main reason why most investors still think differently from business people is a sense of control. After all, as a minority shareholder of a company \u2013 as most investors are \u2013 most things within the company are out of our control. The situation is different for business people, who do have control. So, investors would often analyse the safety aspects of an investment first.\nBut, I still think that investors could be in for positive surprises if they can just think a little bit more like a business person.\nFor more stock analyses and investing tips, sign up here for your FREE subscription to The Motley Fool's weekly investing newsletter, Take Stock Singapore.

        "title": "Fraud Charges Earn Martin Shkreli A New Insult: Comparisons To Bernie Madoff",
        "raw_content": "Fraud Charges Earn Martin Shkreli A New Insult: Comparisons To Bernie Madoff\nMichael Bobelian Contributor\nBack in September, Martin Shkreli made headlines when the company he headed, Turing Pharmaceuticals, raised the price of a drug used to treat patients suffering from an obscure parasite that attacks people with weakened immune systems from $13.50 to $750 a pill. The decision to raise prices on a decades-old drug Turing had acquired from another company a month earlier generated widespread condemnation. Practically overnight, Shkreli became a public villain, even earning the moniker as the \"Bad Boy of Pharmaceuticals\" by the New York Times.\nEarlier today, the 32-year-old Shkreli was back in the headlines, this time as the target of a federal indictment accusing him of defrauding former hedge funds investors and then siphoning off $11 million in assets from Retrophin - a publicly traded biotech firm founded by Shkreli in 2011 - to pay back those investors.\nU.S. Attorney Robert Capers announces the unsealing of an indictment charging Martin Shkreli, a former hedge fund manager and Chief Executive Officer of Retrophin. (Photo credit JEWEL SAMAD/AFP/Getty Images)\nRetrophin's former outside counsel Evan Greebel was also charged with aiding Shkreli in the alleged scheme.\nAccording to the seven-count indictment issued by federal prosecutors in Brooklyn, Shkreli's troubles began in 2009 with his hedge funds MSMB Capital Management and MSMB Healthcare Management: none of the charges are connected to Shkreli's involvement in the drug price increase that brought him notoriety.\nProsecutors claim that Shkreli lied to potential investors about the MSMB Capital's financial wherewithal. After suffering a multi-million dollar loss on a trade involving Orexigen Therapeutics in 2011, Shkreli then masked the losses in statements sent to investors, prosecutors claim, eerily resembling the tactics used by Bernie Madoff in his Ponzi scheme.\nSoon after closing down MSMB Capital, Shkreli did not disclose these losses and made other \"false presentations\" in soliciting investments for MSMB Healthcare, according to prosecutors.\n\"As charged, Martin Shkreli targeted investors and retained their business by making several misrepresentations and omissions about key facts of the funds he managed,\" said FBI Assistant Director-in-Charge Rodriguez in a statement issued by the Department of Justice.\nHe then misappropriated funds held by MSMB Healthcare and inflated the value of its holdings to investors, according to the indictment.\nThe alleged crimes only got more convoluted when Shkreli supposedly transferred assets from Retrophin, where he used to serve as the CEO, to the two hedge funds by transferring shares of the publicly traded company and entering into \"sham consulting agreements\" with the funds all in an effort to redeem the losses the funds had suffered.\nRetrophin filed a lawsuit against Shkreli in August making similar claims.\n\u201cAs alleged, Martin Shkreli engaged in multiple schemes to ensnare investors through a web of lies and deceit. His plots were matched only by efforts to conceal the fraud, which led him to operate his companies, including a publicly traded company, as a Ponzi scheme, where he used the assets of the new entity to pay off debts from the old entity,\" said Robert Capers, the U.S. Attorney based in Brooklyn.\nI write about the Supreme Court, the intersection between the legal and business worlds, and occasionally about politics.

        "title": "How Investing In Mental Health Reaps Positive Societal Rewards",
        "raw_content": "How Investing In Mental Health Reaps Positive Societal Rewards\nTori Utley Contributor\nI cover social impact and entrepreneurship.\nAlthough stigma exists around mental health, it is not without opposition. There are many advocate groups gaining headway in reducing disparities and promoting social reform within the mental health sector. Stigma has been a seemingly uphill battle for all who have experienced a mental health condition or who have known someone facing these challenges. Despite the struggle, economic statistics continue to show that we should all be taking mental health seriously for the sake of our economy.\nAccording to a recent article in The Atlantic, the state of California found that increasing funding and providing better access to mental health services within the university system yielded positive outcomes. In fact, this increase in funding led to over 300 additional graduates at schools where programs and funding were implemented, thus concluding that the additional graduates would add $56 million in \u2018societal benefit\u2019 throughout the graduates\u2019 lifetimes. Compared to the initial investment of $8.7 million in university mental health funding in California, this presents a significant return on investment.\nAlthough this is just one example of success that results from increased mental health funding, it should spark our attention. As discussions continue regarding changing mental health programs, success stories such as the one in California serve as a critical reminder that the funding of mental health programs is vital to the people that drive our economy.\nThe National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) reports that only 23 of the 50 states have chosen to increase their state budgets for mental health in fiscal year 2015-2016. This is an improvement compared to previous years, but it still leaves 12 states with decreased budgets, 13 with maintained budgets, and 2 state budgets left pending.\nWhat decision did your state make? Photo Credit: NAMI\nSo what is the impact of decreasing or stagnating mental health investment? According to NAMI, untreated serious mental illnesses cost America over $193 billion in lost earnings each year. Additionally, those with a mental health condition have the highest student dropout rate among any other disability group, are more prone to homelessness, chronic health conditions, and criminal justice activity. This is a serious issue \u2013 one that is worth our time, resources, and societal investment.\nBy committing to improving the state of mental health in the United States, we must commit to learning the facts, responding appropriately, and changing our actions. A saying among the addiction recovery community states \u201cif nothing changes, nothing changes.\u201d It\u2019s time to change our approach.\nWe need to start by leveling the playing field between mental health, physical health, and other disability groups. Stigma towards mental health often labels patients as \u201cunsafe, unstable, and reckless,\u201d among other undesirable connotations. While behavioral difficulties are often experienced alongside a mental health diagnosis, early intervention has been proven to yield higher rates of resilience and recovery for individuals struggling.\nInstead of stigmatizing mental health, we should be empowering the recovery movement. Recovery is possible, and when reached, society is better off, individual economic contributions increase, and mindsets shift from condemning to helping. Altruistic mentality puts patients first, addresses their needs, and promotes patients to lead healthier lives. If we eradicate stigma, we can remove the barriers keeping patients from seeking mental health treatment.\nWhen stigma dissolves and mental health services increase, society will benefit. Treatment intervention will occur earlier, jobs will be retained, and we\u2019ll see a reduction in homelessness - ultimately, bettering the state of mental health care for millions of our friends, families, and colleagues.\nEvery stride made towards making mental health care more equitable, accessible, and destigmatized will lead to greater results that extend far beyond the healthcare sector and into our economy. Continued advocacy, funding, and support of mental health services lead to improved quality of life and productivity across the human lifespan. Mental health equity, from an economic perspective, is a worthwhile investment.\nI\u2019m a passionate social entrepreneur, writer and product developer. I\u2019ve founded several impact-driven companies, like Tinua and Doc\u2019s Recovery House.

        "raw_content": "Gerald R. Ford's Statement on Signing the Bill Providing for Loan Guarantees for Construction of Municipal Waste Water Treatment Plants\nI have signed S. 3894, a bill to provide loan guarantees for construction of municipal waste water treatment plants.\nUnder my administration, we have been pursuing a massive program to clean up the Nation's waterways, and progress has been heartening. In the municipal area, this administration obligated over $4 billion for waste treatment plants last year and expects to obligate from $5 to $6 billion in the current fiscal year. From these efforts, rivers, lakes, and coastal waters across the country are being cleaned up, and fishing, boating, and other recreational areas are being opened up across the country.\nDespite the progress that is being made, some communities face difficulties in raising the local share of funds for waste water treatment plant construction. I believe strongly that local governments must be a financial partner in this program and strongly oppose Federal financing of some treatment plant projects at 100 percent, as some have proposed.\nThe loan guarantees authorized by this bill will be available to communities only when they are unable to obtain sufficient credit on reasonable terms without a guarantee, and only when EPA determines there is a reasonable assurance of repayment of the loan. The Secretary of the Treasury will determine whether financing is available at reasonable rates. The Federal Financing Bank will loan the funds to a locality, and EPA will guarantee payment of that loan. EPA could charge fees for its expenses in reviewing an application and for the issuance of a commitment to make a guarantee.\nThis legislation will assure that no community is prevented from participating in the municipal clean water campaign solely because of short-term inability to obtain financing. This is particularly important since communities must meet regulatory requirements under the Federal Water Pollution Control Act. The bill I have signed will assure that communities will be able to finance projects without increasing the proportionate Federal share through grants.\nNOTE: As enacted, S. 3984, approved October 19, 1976, is Public Law 94-558 (90 Stat. 2639).",

        "raw_content": "GREENWICH, Conn. \u2013 The ex-boyfriend of the New York woman whose body was found inside a suitcase in a wooded area of Connecticut was held without bail Tuesday on a charge carrying a potential death penalty.\nJavier Enrique Da Silva Rojas, 24, of Queens, New York, was detained in the death of 24-year-old Valerie Reyes after he appeared in federal court in White Plains, New York.\nThe victim&apos;s body was found on Feb. 5 inside a suitcase discarded near a Connecticut road by highway workers. The discovery came after she was reported missing on Jan. 30 by her mother, father and boyfriend, authorities said.\nDa Silva Rojas was arrested in Queens, New York, on Monday. A defense lawyer did not immediately return a message seeking comment.\nFederal authorities said Da Silva Rojas told authorities in a videotaped interview at the New Rochelle Police Department that Reyes fell to the floor and hit her head after they had sex on Jan. 29 at her residence.\nThey said he indicated he put packing tape over her mouth, bound her legs and hands, and put her in a suitcase that he put in a forest after driving for some time.\nDa Silva Rojas was charged with kidnapping resulting in death, which carries a potential penalty of death or life in prison. Prosecutors have not yet indicated if they will seek death if he is convicted.\nWilliam F. Sweeney Jr., head of the FBI&apos;s New York office, said federal authorities teamed with police in Greenwich and New Rochelle to \"swiftly identify Javier Da Silva, an alleged murderer, and place him behind bars.\"\n\"While today&apos;s arrest is certainly a welcome conclusion, it in no way alleviates the pain and suffering Valerie&apos;s family will continue to feel for years to come. The reality of their situation is utterly unimaginable, as is the crime with which Da Silva is charged,\" Sweeney said.\nInvestigators \"zeroed in\" on Da Silva Rojas after he allegedly used Reyes&apos; ATM card to withdraw cash multiple times after her death, Greenwich Police Capt. Robert Berry said.\n\"We are confident that the pursuit of justice for Valerie will be successful and we continue to work with the family to provide closure to this tragedy,\" Berry said in a written statement.\nReyes, of New Rochelle, New York, was reported missing when she did not show up for work Jan. 30 at a bookstore. Autopsy results from the Connecticut Office of the Chief Medical Examiner are still pending.\nPolice said they have examined hundreds of hours of surveillance footage in the case and interviewed several potential witnesses.\nThis story has been corrected to show that police in Greenwich announced the arrest but did not make it and to reflect the defendant&apos;s name as it is provided in court documents.",

        "raw_content": "Weathering the Windfall Winner Announced!\nBy FJ Staff on March 1, 2017\nBarnegat (N.J.) Meeting Friends. Photos courtesy their \u201cWeathering the Windfall\u201d Committee.\nThis past fall we invited Friends Journal readers to imagine what might happen if their meeting were to inherit one million dollars from the passing of a beloved member. As we were putting together the December issue on \u201cGiving and Philanthropy,\u201d Friends kept sharing stories of difficult discussions about\u2014and sometimes painstakingly around\u2014issues of money.\nThe contest grew out of an exercise used by Lisa Smith and Tom Kangas in their workshop at the 2016 Friends General Conference Gathering. We were also inspired by Philip Gulley\u2019s recent novel A Lesson in Hope (reviewed in FJ Aug.), in which this same scenario plays out in the fictional Hope Friends Meeting in Hope, Ind.\nCongratulations to Friends at Barnegat (N.J.) Meeting for their winning submission in our \u201cWeathering the Windfall\u201d contest. They\u2019ll receive a $500 mini\u2010windfall and copies of Gulley\u2019s book.\nBarnegat, a small meeting of 14 members, had big ideas for an expansion of its 1840s\u2010era meetinghouse as a lever into greater outreach in the community, as well as funds to house and support refugee families.\nThe Barnegat (N.J.) Meeting is a small meeting of 14 members, 3 of those living out of state. We love our building, built (we think) in the 1840s, but we recognize that it\u2019s lean\u2010to bathroom and lack of kitchen and separate meeting rooms limits the way we can use the building for outreach into our community.\nFor this reason we had an architecturally sensitive addition designed. It is a clever design of a nearly identical (but modern and energy efficient) building that sits kitty\u2010cornered behind the original building. They are connected by a shared covered porch. This ingeniously (yet attractively) avoids physically tying the buildings together which would require the original building to be brought up to current building codes. The new building contains adjustable meeting rooms, a kitchen and handicapped accessible bathrooms.\nWe cannot help but dream of the many uses we could find for the new building in ministering to our community. The improved facilities would undoubtedly assist us with \u201cgrowing\u201d the Meeting. We are anxious to offer a First\u2010day school, something we currently cannot do as we simply have no where to put it. We could host social gatherings; music concerts, book and discussion groups. We would have meeting space to offer to outside organizations such as Alcoholics Anonymous and local peace and justice organizations. We would be able to participate as a hosting congregation with Interfaith Hospitality, an organization that helps homeless families by housing them in local churches, on a rotating basis for a week at a time. We currently serve as best we can, by offering support services at their local office (cleaning and clerical assistance.)\nThe architectural plans are drawn and paid for. The township has provisionally approved the design as to meeting historical appropriateness. Unfortunately our small meeting and correspondingly small building fund has made the realization of this plan just a dream. Were our Meeting to receive a windfall of one million dollars we would be able to immediately begin the construction of the addition and complete necessary repairs to the original building, historic cemetery, and surrounding stone wall.\nWe anticipate that these two expenditures (the new building and the repair of the original) would use up about $450,000 to $500,000 of the windfall.\nWe would love to use the remaining funds to purchase a house ($300,000) in the nearby county seat of Toms River, which we would use to house a refugee family. Toms River is most conveniently located near the services that the family would require; social services, transportation, etc.\nWe hope that we could enlist like\u2010minded religious and secular groups to assist us in the ongoing support of the family, but would invest the remaining $200,000 as a cushion to guarantee meeting the financial requirement of supporting the family for 90 days as is required by the Federal government.\nWe would invest this remaining $200,000 with our other holdings in the PYM Green Fund, hoping that this additional capital investment would offset the loss of interest we experienced since transferring the entirety of our Friends Fiduciary monies to the Quaker Green Fund. The loss of interest income has necessitated scaling back the charitable contributions we have made in the past. We would hope that the increased investment would lead to an increase in interest income, enabling us to restore our contributions to prior levels and perhaps even increase them.\nThe \u201cWeathering the Windfall\u201d committee of Barnegat Monthly Meeting\nPatricia Sherwin and Carolyn Shafer, Co\u2010clerks of the Meeting\nJoseph Fedock \u2013 Treasurer\nSherry Seeds \u2013 Recording Clerk\nFriends Journal would like to thank to all who entered, as well as contest judges Gabriel Ehri, Philip Gulley, Shree Nath, and Lisa Smith for their time and discernment. Meet the contest judges:\nLisa Smith has served as the executive director of Enterprise for Equity since 1999, a nonprofit that helps people with limited incomes start small businesses and offers microloans up to $25,000 for start\u2010ups. Lisa has facilitated discussions and events for groups of 50\u2013300 people, presented at national and international conferences, and provided training and technical assistance for many organizations over the last 25 years. She is a member of Olympia (Wash.) Meeting.\nPhilip Gulley, heralded as the voice of small\u2010town American life, is a Quaker pastor and author of 20 books that have sold over 1.2 million copies. He has received numerous awards, including the Christy Award for his acclaimed Harmony series and two Emmy Awards. Philip contributes to the Indianapolis Monthly and the Saturday Evening Post. He and his wife have two sons and a granddaughter and live in Danville, Ind.\nShree Nath has worked in the academic, governmental, and private industries (oil and gas, biopharma) and traveled the globe extensively. He was born and raised in Kenya, and then spent 15 years in Kerala, India, before making his way to Oregon to pursue twin PhDs in fisheries and bioresource engineering. He now lives and works in Olympia, Wash., and enjoys learning, assisting the personal development of young adults, and dealing with complex decision making involving multiple parties. He is active in Olympia (Wash.) Meeting. He is grateful for his wife, Meenu, their two children, Sitara and Hari, and a beloved Aussie Shepherd mix Hannah, who help to keep him grounded in the simplicities of daily life.\nGabriel Ehri has been the executive director of Friends Journal since 2011. A native of the Pacific Northwest, Gabe grew up attending University Friends Meeting in Seattle and is a member of Green Street Meeting in Philadelphia, Pa. After earning a degree in English from Haverford College, he spent time with an Internet startup before landing with the Journal in 2004. He\u2019s an avid home cook and reader and enjoys Philadelphia\u2019s vibrant restaurant and music scenes. He lives in the Bella Vista section of Philadelphia with his wife and two sons.\ncommunity, director, exercise, FJ, Friends Journal, Friends Journal December, Gabriel Ehri, Hope Friends Meeting, house, kitchen, Lisa Smith, member, Olympia Wash, Philadelphia, Philip Gulley, process, support, Toms River\nMarch full issue access\nWilliam Boyce Upholt",

        "title": "Toronto Maple Leafs at Ottawa Senators - Free NHL Pick for October 21st",
        "raw_content": "Maple Leafs at Senators \u2013 NHL Pick for October 21st\nIt\u2019s the third Saturday of the NHL season and as usual, we have a pretty full slate of games. We continue to see teams not expected to do much in 2017-18 to excel early in the season. The four division leaders are the Tampa Bay Lightning, New Jersey Devils, St. Louis Blues and Los Angeles Kings.\nOther than the Blues none of those clubs were playoff bound last season. Although the Lightning were considered a favorite in the East heading into the season, the Blues, Devils and Kings were all expected to be in the bottom third of the league.\nOn the flipside, the four teams in last place are the Montreal Canadiens, New York Rangers, Minnesota Wild and the Arizona Coyotes. Other than the Coyotes the other three were all playoff teams last year. The Habs, Rangers and Wild all sit on 4 points. Another team on 4 points is the Edmonton Oilers.\nThe preseason favorite to lift the cup is only ahead of those Coyotes in the division. Truly a remarkable start to the year but can it continue? Are teams like the Golden Knights, Devils and the Avalanche for real? And is it the end of an era for the Canadiens, Rangers and Sharks? So far, the trend is young, speedy teams getting wins and the veteran squads coming up short. I think this will continue for a few more weeks until adjustments are made and the offense slows down. We have 24 teams in action, 12 games in all, so let\u2019s get to it!!\nToronto Maple Leafs (-1.5)\nOttawa Senators (+1.5)\nToronto Maple Leafs (-120) at Ottawa Senators (EVEN)\nIt\u2019s round 1 of the Battle of Ontario for the 2017-18 season. These two teams and fanbases do not like each other. The bad blood dates back to the late 90\u2019s and early 2000\u2019s when the two sides would regularly meet in the playoffs. Although the two haven\u2019t hooked up in the postseason for some time there is always a lot on the line when these two teams meet.\nOddly enough before play on Saturday, if the playoffs started right now the Sens and Leafs would meet in the 1st round. It\u2019s a bit soon to look at playoff matchups but these two clubs are on the upswing so a playoff series may be in the cards. For now, we will take the head-to-head regular-season matchups.\nAt 6-1-0 the Leafs sit just one point behind the Lightning for tops in the NHL. It\u2019s been a long time for this team to have the optimism and even expectation to do big things heading into a new season. Toronto is stacked with young talent in Auston Matthews, Mitch Marner and William Nylander. That trio lit the league on fire in their rookie campaigns last season and so far, are heading in the right direction.\nToronto is 3-0-0 on the road this year and this one is in Ottawa. Everything seems to be going the Leafs\u2019 way early in the 2017-18 and they\u2019ll try to keep that roll going against their arch-rivals.\nThe Senators were one game away from playing in last year\u2019s Stanley Cup Final. They would inevitably fall to the Penguins but are certainly looking for more this year. The team isn\u2019t flashy. Head coach Guy Boucher has his team play a very solid defensive minded game.\nThey have just a single loss in regulation with a 3-1-3 record. The fact that almost half of their games have gone to OT or a Shootout shows how patient a team they are. They do not push forward on a lot of occasions. They were without their captain Erik Karlsson to start the year but he\u2019s back and in his usual Norris-like form.\nThe Maple Leafs offense simply put is the best in the NHL. They are scoring seemingly at will and have tallied an average of 4.9 goals a game, 1st in the league. In their last outing, they had 4 goals on 5 shots going on to a 6-3 win in Detroit. That firepower can\u2019t be matched on a nightly basis by almost any other club. Not surprisingly Auston Matthews is leading the team. His 6 goals and 10 points are tops on the team.\nNazem Kadri is having a nice start to the year as well. He has 4 goals and 4 assists good for 8 points, second on the team. Perhaps the one issue is Mitch Marner. The sophomore netted 19 goals and 42 assists in 2016-17. This year he has just a goal and 3 assists but more alarming is that he is skating on the 4th-line. This may be head coach Mike Babcock challenging the young winger but if he turns things around the offense may be even better in Toronto. The Power Play is also tops in the league clicking at a 30% rate.\nThe Sens do not put the puck in the net like their provincial counterpart. They have scored an average of 3.3 goals a game ranked 12th in the NHL. However, that\u2019s quite a bit higher than last year where they were in the bottom third of the league in goals per game.\nKyle Turris leads the team in points with 8. Derrick Brassard\u2019s 4 goals are tops on the team. They haven\u2019t had much secondary scoring either. Five players have scored 16 of the Sens\u2019 24 goals this season. For a team that doesn\u2019t score a lot as it is they will need their 3rd and 4th lines to add some production. The Power Play is struggling too. They are 17th in the NHL converting just under 19% of the time.\nThe Leafs have done a poor job keeping the puck out of their own net. They have allowed 3.1 goals a game. That\u2019s ranked 17th in the NHL. The defensive unit has been led by Morgan Reilly and Jake Gardiner in year\u2019s past. This may ring true again but at the moment is Nikita Zaitsev. The Russian leads the team in minutes per game averaging 23:00. He is also a +10 which is tied for the lead on the club. The addition of veteran Ron Hainsey from Pittsburgh has also helped the young Leaf defense core.\nOttawa is a defensive club and it has shown early this year. They are 3rd in the NHL giving up just 2.3 goals a game. They\u2019ve also killed off 95.2% of their penalties good for 2nd in the league. Erik Karlsson is the key cog on the blueline. He missed the first 5 games but has 3 points in his first 2 games. He also leads the team in minutes per game. They\u2019ll need him at his best against the high-flying Leafs.\nFrederik Andersen hasn\u2019t been spectacular this season. He owns a 3.14 GAA and a .899 save percentage but he is also 5-1-0. His job is clearly just to keep his team in the game long enough for them to score a pile of goals. Having said that he has a career 2.47 GAA and .917 save percentage so he is a solid goalie and his numbers should come down as the year goes on.\nCraig Anderson\u2019s numbers are far more impressive. He has a 2.40 GAA and a .917 save percentage. His record, however, a meager 2-1-3. Such is the case when your offense doesn\u2019t score almost 5 goals a game.\nAuston Matthews v. Erik Karlsson\nThis will be the toughest test for Matthews to date this season. He has 6 goals already this year including 2 OT winners. He has been the best player on the ice in every game he\u2019s played but Karlsson is a different beast. The Sens get the last change as the home team and expect Karlsson out against Matthews all night long.\nToronto has been so explosive this year it\u2019s hard to imagine the Sens can keep pace. If the Leafs get an early lead Ottawa will struggle to come back and not allow tons of chances on the counter-attack. I will go with Toronto in this one and the under.\nToronto 4 at Ottawa 1",

        "raw_content": "FoxNext VP & General Manager Talks Working With Marvel And Getting The X-Men License\nby Brian Shea on Mar 29, 2018 at 06:08 PM\nIn January 2017, 20th Century Fox formed FoxNext, a new division to head up the company's video game, virtual reality, and theme park initiatives. From an upcoming shooter based in the Alien cinematic universe to a recent adventure game with the Planet of the Apes license, FoxNext has worked with multiple development studios to create games using the IPs that Fox controls. The latest game to launch under the FoxNext banner is Marvel Strike Force, a turn-based strategy game centered on assembling the various characters across the Marvel universe to take on a multidimensional threat.\nI spoke with FoxNext Games' vice president and general manager Amir Rahimi about what it's like to work with Marvel, as well as FoxNext's initiatives as a whole. You can check out our discussion below.\nFoxNext is Fox's big push into the video game space. The benefit of this is that you have Marvel, Alien, and all these different properties. What was the big-picture goal for Fox when establishing FoxNext?\nThe way that they talked to me about it, and the vision as I understand it, is they are really sincere about owning the future of storytelling. They've clearly mastered that across film and television, and they want to take that into the interactive space. What I love about Fox as a company is that they're so mature when it comes to their thinking about creatives. They really understand that the creative people are at the center of these endeavors; you don't always get that at other companies. A lot of times, it's really technology-focused or really business-focused. These guys let creators be creative and innovate. I really, really love that.\nWhat they define as interactive storytelling is really broad and they leave that up to us as the creatives to determine what that means. For our San Francisco studio Fogbank, it means something much closer to what Fox does. They're going to be doing some interesting narrative games. For us down in L.A., it means giving players the tools and empowering the players to fulfill a fantasy and tell their own stories through deep, meaningful interactions. So we really focus on the social. We love creating a game where all the drama comes from interactions between the players.\nHow does the team determine which properties to pursue for a game?\nAgain, the coolest thing about being with Fox is that it's not a top-down thing; they really let us decide. We handle it from a couple of different directions. One, we look at the expertise of our team and the passions of our team, and we try to figure out what gameplay patterns we would be best at. Like, our creative director on Marvel, Jason Bender, was one of the lead designers on the Diablo III console version, and was a senior designer on the game proper.\nWe've always loved turn-based strategy games, so we've been prototyping a turn-based strategy game for many years now. When we have a sense of what the mechanics, we look across media to see if there is a property that fits it like a glove. If there isn't, we'll create our own IP. In this case, there's no better universe in the world than Marvel for a turn-based strategy game that's about collecting a roster of heroes and using them. It's just ideal. It's perfect. At the time, we were Kabam, we had relationships with Marvel, so we had an in and we were able to get the license.\nWith Avatar, it was kind of a similar calculus. We have a long history of doing real-time strategy games; a long time ago, we were the Command & Conquer team at EA. We made several Command & Conquer and Lord of the Rings RTSs. Talking to the folks at Lightstorm and seeing what they have in store for their sequels, we were super inspired. All of us, hearing about what they have in store, we just envisioned the perfect strategy game.\nWhat I love about Fox is they don't even care if we use IP; they really want to innovate and do what's best for our industry. If we would have pitched new IPs, they would have been fine with it. Although, it helps when you're working on their most important franchise in Avatar, and one of their most important franchises in Marvel.\nDo you have any interactions with the creative teams behind the film properties?\nWe do. Our primary contact is a guy by the name of Bill Rosemann [Marvel Games executive creative director], who is just a freaking legend. Having a drink with that guy and just asking him about the Marvel universe is so fun and so entertaining. We get almost everything we need from him and the Marvel Games team.\nAvatar hasn't had very many games, but IPs like Alien and Marvel have had a million different games based on them. How do you differentiate your games from the experiences that have already been presented?\nWe have some really awesome innovations in Marvel. The way that we've chosen to innovate when it comes to this particular Marvel game is through a few different vectors. One is the combat, and the interactions you have in combat. We're delivering a degree of cinematic action and quality that I don't think has ever been done before in a mobile game. There's been a lot of squad-based games out there, but not a lot of them actually let you team up your guys. It's like, one guy attacks, the other guy attacks, and they go back and forth like that. We're doing some really cool stuff with team-ups. You can team up in many different ways, and if you have iconic pairs of characters, you can pull of things like you see in your favorite Marvel movies.\nFox has the license for a particular corner of the Marvel universe. Have there been any problems with getting any of the characters under the Disney umbrella?\nNo. In fact, the struggle was the other way around! We have the Marvel license, so we have the access to all the great Marvel characters. We didn't have the X-Men. We've now managed to get the X-Men. Not all Marvel games get that; it's actually kind of hard these days.\nNot even Marvel vs. Capcom got it in the latest game.\nRight. So, the team is so incredibly fired up about having the X-Men. Some of the most popular characters in the entire universe. We're already hard at work on the X-Men. It's kind of recent that we got this, but we've pushed to get Wolverine in for launch.\nIf you're under Fox, what was the roadblock to get the Fox properties like the X-Men in your game?\nThere was definitely no resistance from Fox. Fox obviously wants us to have that license. There wasn't any undue resistance from Marvel. It's just their policy that they don't give both licenses to people, and we didn't have the X-Men. So we had to make a case for the X-Men. I don't know what factors went into ultimately granting us the X-Men from their side, but as far as I can tell, they probably wanted us to some extent to prove ourselves and get a game up that's worthy of having the entire universe. We worked closely with those guys, and they've been pretty happy with what we've done here. They're seeing our metrics in beta, and they're pretty impressed. If I had to guess, that probably greased the skids in some respects.\nWhat about the other licenses like Spider-Man being under Sony or The Hulk still technically having ties to Universal?\nThose didn't impact us. Hulk and Spidey were both part of the original deal. It was just the X-Men and the Fantastic Four that are carved out. I don't believe they're giving the Fantastic Four to anybody.\nIt seems like Marvel is kind of being protective of them lately. Fantastic Four has had kind of a rough run in film as of late, so that makes sense.\nIt probably factors in, right? We have access now, with the X-Men, to hundreds of characters.\nDoes the X-Men license loop in Deadpool?\nIt sure does. And with Deadpool 2 coming, we are going to do something really big for that.\nWe've seen in the past, entertainment companies not known for their work in the game industry like Disney dip their toe in with gaming, or even go all-in with gaming, then suddenly change their minds. What is preventing Fox from doing that with this initiative?\nUltimately, obviously, it's not up to me if this is them dipping their toe. I don't believe it is. I think that Fox looks at the future of entertainment and really believes that interactive is such a critical part of it. I think they're going to give us every opportunity to succeed. I think the thing that would probably cause them to remove their toe from the water would be if we don't deliver. By \"we\" I don't just mean this one game; we have a really compelling portfolio that we're building and I think that they're going to give us a run at it and really support us in doing that. If we can't execute, I wouldn't expect them to, at least with us, keep their toe in the water.\nMarvel is on one end of the spectrum where they have a million different characters and enemy types and hero types, but Alien has always just had a couple of enemy types to take on. How does the team behind the announced Alien shooter work within those constructs to make a compelling game while only having a few enemy types from the source material?\nI don't manage that game directly, so I can't really speak for their creative vision behind it, but the way that we try to look at each different IP out there is that you have to tap into what's special about it. We would never \u2013 again speaking just for my studio in L.A. \u2013 we would never take a license like Alien and try to do a game that's heavily dependent on creating a huge roster of unique characters. It just wouldn't fit. It goes back to that thing of \"Does it fit like a glove with what you're building, or not?\" The way that I look at Alien is that it's much more of an intense survival, maybe a little horror, and you want to immerse players in that world, and again, give them the tools to fulfill that fantasy. You only need the few characters and enemy types that you see in that world to create something compelling.\nI know you said that with FoxNext, not everything needs to be an IP, but do you have a dream IP that you'd love to tackle after Marvel?\nMarvel for most people in the studio is a dream come true. For most people in the industry, I would think it is. Avatar... I just adore that world, and it's going to come back in such a big way. It's hard to look past those two, but, man... yeah, I can't. To be honest, I would love to do another Marvel game. We're starting to think about what we're doing in the future, and it's been so fun partnering with those guys that I'd love to pick a different genre and do something else with them.\nThe Marvel license is so fun because you can get away with so much within that universe. You can do whatever you want, as long as you stay true to the characters. As long as Spider-Man is always Spider-Man and you're not giving him, like, a grappling hook - something that would be so anti to what he's about...\nGoing around, killing people left and right.\n[Laughs] Right! Definitely. Don't give him a sniper rifle or something stupid like that!\nAs long as you stay true to the core of the characters, you can do so much in that world. That's been so freeing to have that.\nAre there any stories you're trying to tell in Marvel Strike Force that fold into events in the comics or movies?\nYes, certainly. The big villain is a guy named Ultimus, who hasn't been touched by the MCU at all. He's a pretty compelling nemesis because he is an Eternal, the same way that Thanos is. He's sort of the same species as Thanos, but just a different race. He's part of the Kree, and as far as I understand, he's one of the few characters who beat up Thor in two out of the three battles they fought. He's incredibly powerful... about as powerful as Thanos is, but he's someone who hasn't been seen to this point in the MCU. So he's kind of someone we can have a sense of uniqueness to our game.\nThe overall premise is that he's been going from dimension to dimension mind-controlling heroes. So he's been building an army of mind-controlled Hulks and Spider-Mans and Wolverines, and he's raising that army to take over the universe. He's now at what is considered the Nexus Earth. This Earth is sort of the key to every other Earth that exists. You, as a commander of an elite unit of S.H.I.E.L.D. called Strike, are tasked with recruiting heroes to prevent him from taking over this Earth that would basically unlock his ability to rule the entire universe.\nAre there any concerns with doing the multiverse? That can get real complicated real quick.\nWhat's great about that is what it all just really boils down to for the super casual player is that it's a beautiful conceit for why you might be controlling a Hulk who is fighting another Hulk. You'll see red eyes on the guys who are mind-controlled and that's all they really need to understand. Then, through the campaign, we tell the story. For people who really want it, they can dive real deep into the multiverse thing and have as much as they want.\nMarvel Strike Force is currently available to download on iOS and Android.",

        "raw_content": "Burke leaves his Cave with flourish\nKevin Burke, the acclaimed stage actor who carried Defending the Caveman for more than a decade in downtown Las Vegas (15 years worldwide), closed his spectacular run with the long-time favorite on Aug. 2.\nVegas\u2019 Entertainer of the Year in 2008, Burke didn\u2019t entirely call it quits on the show, noting he could be part of the touring entourage in the future, yet for now seeks to spend more time with his family. He was the personal, handpicked successor for the part by Rob Becker, the original Caveman and writer.\nBurke joined the show at the Golden Nugget, then followed it to Excalibur Hotel & Casino, Harrah\u2019s Las Vegas and its current home at the D Las Vegas.\nBut don\u2019t fret! The show will continue with several substitute Cavers.\nTexas born actor John Venable (\u201cFriday Night Lights,\u201d \u201cElevator Ride\u201d) will fill the role next week; then Aug. 22-26, renowned Icelandic actor Joel Saemundffon will bring his own version of the show from its North Atlantic Ocean home to the D Las Vegas. Saemundffon\u2019s version is thought to be an entirely reworked script, so if you\u2019ve seen the show before, you will need to come back to enjoy the updated production.\nIt seems Vegas\u2019 Ivory Star Productions are partners with the company based in Iceland that owns the franchise. And, when Saemundffon comes to town, so will the management team for call-backs (starting Aug. 19) to determine the new face for the show (videotapes are still being accepted).\nSorry, I refused to audition for the role, although the show\u2019s make-up artists would love it because they wouldn\u2019t need to prep me every night \u2013 the hairdresser thinks I already look like a Caveman!\nLittle in paperback\nWorld-renown impressionist Rich Little, a fixture at The Laugh Factory at the Tropicana since February, released his autobiography titled, \u201cLittle By Little: People I\u2019ve Known and Been\u201d about two years ago.\nUnfortunately, the publication \u2013 now in paperback \u2013 may need some updating as his co-star on the NBC summer series, \u201cThe Rich Little Show,\u201d passed away Aug. 5.\nCharlotte Rae, who had a show business career spanning six decades after debuting on NBC in 1954, has left us.\nRae was a mainstay in situation-comedy television in the 1980s, best noted for her Primetime Emmy Award nominated role as Edna Garrett, the mother in \u201cDiff\u2019rent Strokes,\u201d plus a starring part in \u201cThe Facts of Life.\u201d\nThe beloved redhead had a career ranging from Kraft Television Theatre, NBC Television Opera Theatre and \u201cThe Phil Silvers Show\u201d in the 1950s, through appearances on \u201cThe King of Queens\u201d and \u201cER\u201d over the past decade.\nMagical return\nDon\u2019t tell, but Penn & Teller are back.\nThe comedy-magic duo \u2013 the longest-running headlining act in Las Vegas history \u2013 will be back at The Rio with the return of Teller \u2013 I dare not state Raymond\u2019s real first name... Oops! \u2013 following his month-long hospital-and-home recovery stay from back surgery.\nLast month, on his Twitter account @MrTeller, he wrote, \u201cWe\u2019ll be back and bad August 18th! Whew!\u201d\nKudos to the \u201clittle guy\u201d \u2013 Penn Jillette is the one not vertically challenged \u2013 and keep on going until at least 2025, the team\u2019s 50th anniversary in show business.\nTeller claims \u2013 no, really, he said this, contrary to his non-verbal stage persona \u2013 his back problems were \u201clingering result of hanging from straitjackets and climbing in and out of boxes.\u201d\nDid he say \u201cstraitjackets\u201d?\nAlso, a belated kudos to Penn for professionally extending himself while performing in \u201cThe Tempest\u201d during its run at The Smith Center, then to South Coast Repertory theatre in Costa Mesa, Calif.\nStill Gaga for her\nLady Gaga keeps eating my heart \u2013 indeed, we would be a \u201cBad Romance.\u201d I guess we were just \u201cBorn This Way.\u201d\nI\u2019ve been a great fan of Gaga since the day she left NYC\u2019s Collaborative Arts Project with New York University\u2019s Tisch School of the Arts to become an immediate star.\nBut what is she? A pop singer. A jazz singer. She does everything from electronic and dance all the way to working duets with entertainers like Tony Bennett with pieces from The Great American Songbook.\nNow, \u201cmy\u201d Lady will be starring with Bradley Cooper in yet another re-make of \u201cA Star is Born.\u201d Cooper will direct the film, while also singing with his beautiful co-star.\nTypically, when some producer creates a new version of a classic film, I will pass on it. Can the Gaga-Cooper tandem top previous \u201cStar\u201d versions by the acting teams of Janet Gaynor-Fredric March (1937), Judy Garland-James Mason (1954), and Barbra Streisand-Kris Kristofferson (1976).\nYet, somehow knowing Gaga\u2019s innovative and provocative mind, I can\u2019t be anything but intrigued about the result of this project. To me, Gaga is part singer, part promoter and part \u201cEnigma,\u201d the well-chosen name of her Vegas show.\nThe film will first screen at the 75th Venice Film Festival over Labor Day weekend (probably Aug. 31), then be released to theaters nationally in early October. Prepare for an Oscar publicity campaign, too.\nAfterward, Gaga will be returning to Las Vegas over New Year\u2019s weekend, perhaps as part of her new residency at The Park Theater at Park MGM \u2013 ticket prices are highly reasonable!\nSpeaking of Garland, her daughter Liza Minnelli, best known for her Academy Award-winning performance in Cabaret (1972), is said to be hiding in L.A.\nIn 2015, after Liza celebrated the 50th anniversary of her Broadway debut in \u201cFlora the Red Menace\u201d at the Imperial Palace Hotel, plus a guest appearance as a judge on Australian Idol, she is said to be locked in her home with no plans on coming out anytime soon.\nLorna Luft, always referred to as Garland\u2019s \u201cother daughter,\u201d once wrote a book about her eccentric family, titled, \u201cMe and My Shadows: A Family Memoir.\u201d\nI\u2019ve lived long enough to know of these people, so as a celebrity columnist, I just love being a gossip queen.\nGong Seth\nSeth Myers of SNL and Late Night fame is now hosting a revival of \u201cThe Gong Show.\u201d Myers appears as Tommy Maitland, the show\u2019s host, similar to the show\u2019s original host, Chuck Barris.\nLook, there are already way too many talent competitions on television. However, since Gong highlights the worst of these \u201ctalents,\u201d it\u2019s entertaining to watch. Unfortunately, we all love to watch people fail.\nLet\u2019s bring back all of these so-called \u201cwinners\u201d and let\u2019s see any of them hold up to today\u2019s standards. I will review them and let\u2019s see who are the real hits and misses.\nAlso, look forward to my new show, \u201cAn Intimate Evening with the Fabulous Monti Rock III\u201d at a contest near you.",

        "raw_content": "Defeat in Victory: the Democrats\u2019 Health Care Bill\nWhat looks like a big victory for Obama and the Democrats may be their greatest undoing. It\u2019s true that the passage of Obama\u2019s health care bill represents a significant political victory for the Democrats. But sometimes a battle won could equal a lost war.\nIt\u2019s telling that Obama had so much trouble in getting his own party to pass the bill on a simple majority basis: the bill was so blatantly watered down with the corporate hose that anyone with their name attached to it feared future electoral doom.\nThis kept the Democrat\u2019s left wing \u2014 the so-called progressive wing \u2014 from initially giving their seal of approval. It must be remembered that some of the left Democrats initially claimed support for single payer health care. After being scolded by the Party leadership that this demand was \u201coff the table,\u201d the lefts moved to the right and demanded a \u201cstrong public option.\u201d\nThe public option grew weaker and weaker as the health care bill evolved. The left Democrats pinned all their hopes on it; they ignored the rest of the health care bill, which slashed Medicare and taxed the \u201cCadillac\u201d health care plans of union workers, all in the hopes that a miniscule public option would give the lefts some political cover.\nIt wasn\u2019t meant to be. The final health care vision is the brainchild of the monopoly corporations who dominate health care in America. Their power will remain untouched. Indeed, it will only grow.\nDennis Kucinich, the most \u201cradical\u201d of the progressive Democrats, waited until the last round before he threw in the towel to the health care industry. His capitulation is especially symbolic, as many progressive activists around the country remained in the Democratic Party solely because he was there. His inglorious surrender signals what many progressives already knew: the Democrats are a corporate dominated party, where liberal ideas are tolerated so long as they have no actual effect on policy.\nWith Kucinich and the other left Democrats now fully discredited, the Democratic Party has further undermined its credibility \u2014 what little remained. Those who hoped that the party could be reformed\u2014 that the corporate wing could somehow be out-muscled\u2014 will be duped no longer.\nAlso, the bill\u2019s taxing of \u201cCadillac\u201d health care plans will further alienate organized labor from the Democrats. What little faith the unions had in the Democrats will be badly shaken.\nMore significantly, those millions of people who are soon to be mandated to buy shoddy, corporate insurance will vent their rage solely at the Democrats. A significant portion of the currently uninsured will remain without insurance, and be penalized at tax time for not buying into the corporate healthcare scam. These millions will be never vote Democrat again.\nThe Democrats have a won a congressional battle against the Republicans, while sawing off the branches of support on which they are perched. The party that was once \u201cthe lesser of two evils\u201d is now competing on equal footing with the Republicans.\nWith both political parties dominated by the big banks and corporations, there is ever growing political vacuum to the left (the vacuum to the right is being filled by the tea partiers).\nThere have been countless attempts to organize a mass third party. The numerous progressive political parties that currently exist do so on an insignificant scale.\nWhat remains missing is the support of labor unions, which represent millions of working members. Labor is the only social force that currently exists on the left capable of creating a mass-based party with the resources capable of competing with the two parties of big business.\nWhat the unions lack in funds they make up for with potentially millions of volunteers \u2014 door-knockers, phone bankers, fund raisers, community organizers, etc.\nIf labor were to finally declare its independence from the Democrats, and announce the drive to create an independent labor led party representing the majority of working people in this country, the \u201cfractured left\u201d would find instant cohesion.\nIf this labor based party were based on a progressive platform \u2014including Jobs, Peace and Medicare for All \u2014 not only would the country\u2019s millions of union members join and vote for it, but the tens of millions of working people disenfranchised by the Democrats would instantly jump on board.\nThe political void to the left needs to be filled quickly. Tea Partiers and Ron Paul Republicans are benefiting from this political black hole: many people who are progressive at heart are being tricked by these right-wing populists. A bold showing from America\u2019s Labor Movement would stop this trend dead in its tracks and open the way for true majority rule.",

        "raw_content": "U.S. Plunges Central America Back To Era Of Coups And Death Squads\nMarch 24th of this year was the thirtieth anniversary of the assassination of Oscar Arnulfo Romero, the Roman Catholic archbishop of El Salvador.\nHis killing drew attention to the murderous rampages of death squads in that nation and throughout Central America as no other slaying had, although hundreds of thousands of civilians were slaughtered in El Salvador, Guatemala, Nicaragua and Honduras before and during the 1980s by paramilitary formations usually led by graduates of the U.S.\u2019s School of the Americas and covertly funded by the same nation\u2019s Central Intelligence Agency.\nGraduates of the Pentagon\u2019s School of the Americas at Fort Benning, Georgia (now the equally euphemistic Western Hemisphere Institute for Security Cooperation) include the man responsible for ordering Romero\u2019s killing, the late Roberto D\u2019Aubuisson; Efrain Rios Montt, head of the military junta in Guatemala in 1982-1983 which perpetrated some of the worst atrocities in the nation\u2019s bloodstained history; and Romeo Vasquez Velasquez, who was dismissed as chief of the Honduran military on June 25 of last year and led the coup against President Manuel Zelaya three days later.\nAfter being appointed El Salvador\u2019s top ecclesiastic in 1977 Romero, hitherto considered a doctrinal if not a political conservative, spoke out forcefully against the abuses of the country\u2019s military and the deaths squads linked to it.\nTwo months before he was killed he wrote to then U.S. President Jimmy Carter imploring him to desist from arming and training the Salvadoran army, particularly plans to \u201ctrain three Salvadoran battalions in logistics, communications and intelligence,\u201d and criticizing the fact that three months before \u201ca group of six Americans was in El Salvador\u2026providing $200,000 in gas masks and flak jackets and teaching how to use them against demonstrators.\u201d [1]\nHis appeal was ignored.\nOn the last full day of his life Archbishop Romero celebrated mass at the Cathedral of San Salvador and ended his homily (a sermon ordinarily based on the day\u2019s Gospel reading) with impassioned words that were an indictment, plea and command:\n\u201cNo one has to fulfill an immoral law. It is time to recover your consciences and to obey your consciences rather than the orders of sin. The church, defender of the rights of God, of the law of God, of human dignity, the dignity of the person, cannot remain silent before such abomination. We want the government to take seriously that reforms are worth nothing when they come about stained with so much blood. In the name of God, and in the name of this suffering people whose laments rise to heaven each day more tumultuously, I beg you, I ask you, I order you in the name of God: Stop the repression!\u201d [2]\nThe following evening he said mass at the small chapel of the Divine Providence cancer hospital. During the most solemn segment of the Catholic service, the liturgy of the Eucharist, the officiating priest consecrates and elevates in turn the communion wafer and wine.\nAs he lifts first the host, then the chalice, he utters an account of Jesus at the Last Supper:\n\u201cBefore he was given up to death, a death he freely accepted, he took bread and gave you thanks. He broke the bread, gave it to his disciples, and said: Take this, all of you, and eat it; this is my body which will be given up for you.\n\u201cWhen the supper was ended, he took the cup. Again he gave you thanks and praise, gave the cup to his disciples, and said:\n\u201cTake this, all of you, and drink from it; this is the cup of my blood, the blood of the new and everlasting covenant. It will be shed for you and for all so that sins may be forgiven. Do this in memory of me.\u201d\nIt was while Romero recited the last words that a shot from an M-16 assault rifle pierced his heart, leaving him to bleed to death in front of the altar, his blood mingling with the spilled communion wine.\nThirty years later no one has ever been convicted of, no one has ever been charged with, his murder.\nThe Salvadoran death squads and their opposite numbers elsewhere in Central America tried to hide their violent and grisly crimes under the cloak of religiosity, but to murder El Salvador\u2019s top religious leader at the moment and under the circumstances they did was the work of men without moral or spiritual motives. It was the act of brutes.\nEight years ago a BBC report stated that the killing was, \u201caccording to declassified US documents and other witnesses, carried out by Salvadorean police intelligence agents on the orders of Major Roberto D\u2019Aubuisson.\u201d [2] The U.S. military-trained D\u2019Aubuisson carried the details of his role to the grave with him in 1992.\nAfter Romero\u2019s death, after his \u2013 even in the most secular acceptance of the word \u2013 martyrdom, the mantle of the U.S. presidency was passed from Carter to Ronald Reagan, who appointed then recently retired Army general and NATO Supreme Allied Commander Alexander Haig as his secretary of state.\nIn his eighteen-month tenure at what is formally the top diplomatic post in the U.S., Haig was involved in military, covert and in some instances openly terrorist operations against the governments of Afghanistan, Angola, (post-Khmer Rouge) Cambodia, Ethiopia, Grenada, Mozambique, Poland and Suriname among other nations, but from the day he took the helm at the State Department his main focus was on Central America.\nIt was during his watch there from 1981-1982 that the death squad campaigns in El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras and the Contra war against Nicaragua began in earnest.\nDuring the early years of the first Reagan term U.S. military aid to El Salvador was increased from $5.9 million 1980 to $35.5 million in 1981 and to $82 million in 1982. A fourteenfold increase in two years.\nThis March 24th a government of El Salvador for the first time officially apologized on behalf of the state for the murder of Romero. President Mauricio Funes, elected last June on the ticket of the Farabundo Marti National Liberation Front \u2013 the very group Washington armed and trained the Salvadoran military to exterminate thirty years ago \u2013 said on the anniversary that \u201cThis is something that should have been done a long time ago.\u201d [4]\nHis comment was uttered during a ceremony unveiling a mural dedicated to Oscar Romero at San Salvador\u2019s international airport.\nA thousand Salvadorans marched from the chapel he was killed in to the cathedral in the capital chanting Romero\u2019s own words: \u201cThey can kill me, but they will never kill justice.\u201d\nHis words, his example have unfortunately assumed more urgency thirty years after his death than any would have wished.\nLast June 28 D\u2019Aubuisson\u2019s fellow graduate of the School of the America\u2019s, Hondura\u2019s General Romeo Vasquez Velasquez, led a military coup d\u2019etat against the standing government of President Manuel Zelaya and forced the head of state into exile in Costa Rica.\nThe very next day President Barack Obama welcomed Colombian head of state Alvaro Uribe, linked to Latin America\u2019s longest death squad horrors, to the White House, and the visit was followed by news that the Pentagon was acquiring the use of seven new military bases in the South American country. Colombia borders Venezuela and Ecuador, both Bolivarian Alliance for the Peoples of Our America (ALBA) members along with Honduras before the coup.\nTo use an apt Cold War term, the coup was the opening salvo in the \u201crollback\u201d against the most serious attempt in Latin America\u2019s history to assert itself against centuries of U.S. domination.\nOn January 13th of this year the post-coup regime of non-popularly elected Roberto Micheletti withdrew Honduras from ALBA, the only time a member has left the alliance.\n\u201cHonduras\u2019s entrance into the bloc in 2008 under the leadership of President Manuel Zelaya is considered to be one of the motivations for the right wing military coup that kidnapped and expelled Zelaya last June.\u201d [5]\nWashington\u2019s desperation has increased dramatically since the meeting of the Rio Group in Mexico last month, which \u201cagreed to form a Latin American alternative to the Organization of American States that excludes the United States and Canada.\u201d [6]\nCutting across major ideological lines, 24 Latin American and 15 Caribbean nations (with some overlapping) met at what was declared a Unity Summit, and in the words of the host country\u2019s President Felipe Calderon, \u201cWe have decided to create an organization that includes all the organizations of Latin America and the Caribbean. We have decided to base an organization on shared values including sovereignty and the non-use of force, including threats of force, international cooperation, ever closer integration of Latin America and the Caribbean and permanent political dialogue.\u201d [7]\nThe new and expanded organization proposed, the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States (CELAC), will include all nations in the Western Hemisphere except for the U.S. and Canada, will supplant and render moribund the U.S.-dominated Organization of American States (OAS), and will \u201cresolve a host of problems, including the launching of interaction with Mercosur, the Andean Community of Nations, the Union of South American Nations, the Organization of Ibero-American States and ALBA \u2013 the Bolivarian Alliance for the Americas.\u201d [8]\nA Russian analyst suggested that \u201cThere is little, if any, doubt that the future Community will be at loggerheads with the OAS, since Washington is used to bossing Latin America around and imposing on the region what strategically important decisions suit it best.\u201d\nHe also warned that \u201cThe United States is certainly not about to trust some newly-formed organization with control of the processes under way in the countries south of the Rio Grande.\n\u201cThe Empire is getting ready to \u2018act energetically\u2019 to foil a constituent summit of the future Community of Latin American and Caribbean States.\u201d [9]\nEarly in March U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton visited Costa Rica to embrace her nation\u2019s new surrogate in Honduras, Porfirio Lobo, and to chastise Latin America for defying Washington\u2019s will. Lobo, for example, was the only Latin American head of state (though one only recognized by the U.S. and a few allies) not invited to the Unity Summit in Mexico on February 22-23. His exclusion was a frank commentary on the June 2008 coup by every government in the Western Hemisphere except his own and those of the U.S. and Canada.\n\u201cThe United States helped to broker November elections that brought Honduran President Porfirio Lobo to power, but his government has been shunned by several countries in the region because the polls were organized by the de facto government that overthrew Zelaya.\u201d\nClinton was \u201cwinding up a six-nation Latin American tour during which she was challenged by leaders who repeated charges that the United States did not take a hard enough line against the coup, which echoed a long history of military takeovers in the region.\u201d [10]\nWith a command of diplomatese that renders her a worthy successor of the late Alexander Haig, Clinton stated it was time to \u201cmove forward,\u201d as \u201cWe think that Honduras has taken important and necessary steps that deserve the recognition and normalization of relations.\u201d\nUnintentionally emphasizing why there is a need for ALBA and CELAC, she added, \u201cOther countries in the region say that they want to wait a while. I don\u2019t know what they\u2019re waiting for\u2026.\u201d\nIn Costa Rica she met with Lobo and \u201csaid she had notified Congress that the United States would restart the flow of more than USD 30 million in non-humanitarian aid to Honduras that was cut off after the June 28 coup that ousted Zelaya.\u201d\nWhile offering lip service to the relative undesirability of military coups in the U.S.\u2019s backyard, she nevertheless asserted \u201cBut we think its time to move forward and ensure that such disruptions of democracy do not and cannot happen in the future.\u201d [11] Scant comfort to other ALBA member states awaiting Washington\u2019s next maneuver.\nTo refute what Clinton characterized as the Lobo regime\u2019s \u201ccommitments to\nre-establish constitutional order in the country,\u201d on March 24 Honduran professor Jose Manuel Flores, an active opponent of the newly-installed government of Porfirio Lobo, was murdered at the Instituto San Jose del Pedregal where he taught, \u201cshot in the back when hooded individuals entered the school through the roof\u2026.\u201d [12]\nHooded assassins murdering dissenting academics conjures up nightmares from the darkest period of death squad atrocities in the 1980s.\nAccording to human rights and resistance groups in Honduras, since last year\u2019s coup there have been 130 murders and over 3,000 arrests of opponents of the junta. [13]\nOn March 25 the National Popular Resistance Front announced plans for a mass rally in the capital that \u201cwill coincide with a general strike and a national mourning campaign convened by teachers\u2019 organizations after Professor Jose Manuel Flores was killed by hooded men two days ago,\u201d blaming \u201cthe Honduran oligarchy and Porfirio Lobo\u2019s de facto regime\u201d [14] for the latest killing of those Clinton demands \u201cmove forward\u201d by submitting to Washington\u2019s diktat.\nIn late February over 10,000 supporters of deposed President Manuel Zelaya left the main university in the capital of Tegucigalpa, but \u201cwere blocked by soldiers from nearing the presidential palace and diverted to the parliament in the city center\u2026.\u201d Troops ordered from their barracks by a regime that \u201chas taken important and necessary steps that deserve the\nrecognition and normalization of relations,\u201d as Hillary Clinton would phrase it a week later.\n\u201cSix teachers\u2019 unions backed the protests and called for classes to be suspended nationwide.\u201d [15]\nMilitary coups d\u2019etat and masked hit squads are back in Central America with Washington\u2019s blessing and the threats are not limited to Honduras, which is intended as both object lesson and prototype by the White House and the State Department.\nIn February Venezuela\u2019s President Hugo Chavez warned \u201cthat the right-wing in Latin America was being organized to attack the Bolivian Alliance of the Americas (ALBA) and the Union of South American Nations (Unasur),\u201d adding however that \u201cthe U.S. government would not be able to stop the development of ALBA in Central America despite the coup in Honduras.\u201d\n\u201cThe U.S. Empire\u201d will employ reactionary and covert forces to subordinate the next government of Brazil (a general election will be held this October), \u201cwhich also will be terrible for the unity of South America.\u201d [16]\nIn addition, it was reported on March 25 that Nicaragua\u2019s ambassador to the Organization of American States, Denis Moncada, accused the U.S. ambassador to his nation, Robert Callahan, of \u201cmeddling in Nicaraguan internal affairs.\u201d Callahan, Moncada continued, \u201chas publicly supported attempts by Nicaraguan opposition parties, rating as fraudulent the 2008 municipal elections, when the Sandinista National Liberation Front won the majority of the country\u2019s mayoralties.\u201d [17]\nThe Nicaraguan press recently published an article by Uruguayan journalist Jorge Capelan titled \u201cThe United States and its Web of NGOs in Nicaragua,\u201d which detailed that \u201cthe destabilizing strategy the United States has pursued in Venezuela through non-governmental organizations and \u2018contractor\u2019 firms is also being applied in Nicaragua against the Sandinista government.\u201d\nThe report documented that since 1994 the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) created \u201cso-called Offices of Transition Initiatives (OTI) in several countries worldwide.\n\u201cThey were originally created to support transition to capitalism in Eastern European countries, but they later spread to other states where it was necessary to address situations in which US interests were threatened.\u201d\nAn OTI was launched in Venezuela in July of 2002, two months after the 47-hour coup there, and in late 2005 in Bolivia in an attempt to prevent Evo Morales\u2019 victory in the December 18 presidential election.\nAlthough there \u201cis no OTI in Nicaragua,\u201d USAID is concocting \u201ca similar strategy against the Sandinista government through the CampTransparencia program run by the paramilitary DynCorp firm.\n\u201cCampTransparencia has organized forums and other similar activities in Nicaragua. Its main cadres have experience in \u2018regime change\u2019 operations.\u201d [18]\nThe current preferred method of effecting the subversion and overthrow of governments considered to present obstacles to U.S. geopolitical designs is the \u201ccolor revolution\u201d model first employed in Yugoslavia in 2000 and replicated in the former Soviet states of Georgia, Ukraine and Kyrgyzstan. The first attempt to export a variation of the technique to Latin America was in Bolivia two years ago.\nLast May Hillary Clinton railed against \u201cgrowing Iranian, Chinese and\nRussian influence in the Western Hemisphere,\u201d which has ostensibly encouraged \u201cleftist leaders like Venezuela\u2019s Hugo Chavez, Bolivia\u2019s Evo Morales and Nicaragua\u2019s Daniel Ortega to promote anti-U.S. sentiment and rely on aid from China, Iran and Russia.\u201d [19] She particularly singled out Nicaragua, stating \u201cWe are looking to figure out how to deal with [President Daniel] Ortega\u201d as \u201cthe Iranians are building a huge embassy in Managua. You can only imagine what it\u2019s for.\u201d [19]\nIn the 1980s the Reagan administration frequently invoked alleged Russian and Iranian influence in Nicaragua to justify its support for the Contra war against the nation.\nTo Central America\u2019s immediate north, on March 22 Defense Secretary Robert Gates and chairman of the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff Admiral Michael Mullen accompanied Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to Mexico, and upon returning top U.S. military commander Mullen spoke of Mexico\u2019s \u201cown version of counterinsurgency,\u201d and said, \u201cWe\u2019re working with them to generate as much capability as they can in that fight.\u201d [19] In speaking as he did, Mullen reiterated his statements in January of 2009 that the U.S. military was prepared to employ the same counterinsurgency tactics used in Afghanistan and Iraq for Mexico and that the infamous Plan Colombia could be the \u201coverarching\u201d model for the wars in Afghanistan and Pakistan.\nEarlier this month the joint commander of United States Northern Command (NORTHCOM) and North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD), General Victor Renuart, spoke before the Senate Armed Services Committee and said of his dual commands that their missions range \u201cfrom supporting law enforcement on the U.S.-Mexico border to monitoring Russian military planes and ships off U.S. borders,\u201d and that \u201cNorthcom has shared military lessons learned in Iraq and Afghanistan to combat violence and illegal activity on the Southwest border.\u201d [20]\nThe White House and the Pentagon are not prepared to allow the rest of the nations in the Americas to determine their own destiny without interference. Without intervention.\nThe 2002 coup in Venezuela and the 2009 coup in Honduras are not the last that Washington will support given the opportunity. Latin American vigilance and unity are required more than ever before.\n1) http://liturgyhouse.blogspot.com/2008/03/archbishop-oscar-romeros-letter-to.html\n2) http://www.sojo.net/index.cfm?action=magazine.article&issue=soj8005&article=800512\n3) BBC News, March 24, 2002\n4) Los Angeles Times, March 24, 2010\n5) Venezuelanalysis.com, January 15, 2010\n6) Americas Society/Council of the Americas, February 23, 2010\n7) Cancun Mexico News, February 23, 2010\n8) Nil Nikandrov, OAS without US: An Alternative\nStrategic Culture Foundation, March 21, 2010\n10) Reuters, March 5, 2010\n12) Prensa Latina, March 24, 2010\n15) Agence France-Presse, February 26, 2010\n16) Xinhua News Agency, February 8, 2010\n19) Associated Press, May 1, 2009\n20) United States Department of Defense",

Learn about them here through our travel in Asia travel blog and Asian travel articles. From the gorgeous white sand beaches of Southeast Asia, to the snow-capped peaks of the Himalayas, to the lush rainforests of tropical Asia, we have information on it all, in our Asia blog and Asia travel articles. This travel in Asia blog and Asian travel articles webpage brings you tips, inside knowledge, and up to date Asian travel articles and Asian travel blogs on the best this vast continent has to offer.\nAsia Travel Blog Tips and Hints\nBe aware but don\u2019t be afraid: Before you go, read up on what to look out for in the different countries, regions and cities you\u2019re heading to, in the way of scams and crime. Generally Asia is a very safe place but wherever there are tourists with money there are bound to be people trying to get them to part with it. A money belt is a great way to keep money and cards safe and will help give you peace of mind. Also make sure you agree on prices before accepting any kind of service from tour guides or taxi drivers. That said Asia is home to some of the friendliest, most welcoming people on the planet, so be aware but don\u2019t be afraid.\nVisas and travel documents: The diversity of the countries and people of Asia is truly mind-boggling and travelling throughout Asia is an extremely rewarding experience. It\u2019s important to remember that each country has its own border and visa regulations and that for most countries you will need a visa. To avoid being turned away at the gates, make sure you keep up to date with the latest visa information online or find out from hotels or fellow travelers while you\u2019re on the road.\nA little language goes a long way: While you often find people with good English in tourist areas, as soon as you stray from the beaten track you will find many who don\u2019t. A phrase or guidebook is ideal in these situations, especially when trying to organise transport or a bed for the night. Knowing numbers and some basic shopping language can also help a great deal when bargaining, in the fabulous markets of Asia, and will often make it easier to drastically reduce the price. Whatever the reasons for learning some of the lingo, the rewards are immediate, when you see the reaction of the locals, who will praise your wonderful language skills, even if all you did was say hello.\n5 Best Places to Visit in Udaipur",

        "title": "Denis Suarez to Arsenal transfer: Why Barcelona man failed at Camp Nou | Goal.com",
        "raw_content": "Why Arsenal-bound Suarez failed to make the grade at Barcelona\nThe versatile midfielder is set for a reunion with former Sevilla boss Emery in north London after failing to win over Ernesto Valverde in Catalunya\nAfter two-and-a-half immensely frustrating years at Barcelona, Denis Suarez looks set to make a fresh start in the Premier League.\nBut why did the 25-year-old fail to impress alongside the likes of Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez? And can he show his best side for an Arsenal team that is also struggling to meet expectations after such a promising start to the season under new manager Unai Emery?\nEmery, of course, played a bigger part than most in Suarez's Barca move. After unsuccessful early stints at Manchester City and the Catalans ended, the then-Sevilla coach brought him to Andalusia in 2014.\nIn his only season at the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan, Suarez made 25 starts and 46 appearances in all competitions as the Rojiblancos won the Europa League and finished fifth in La Liga, with their loan signing from Barcelona contributing six goals and five assists to the cause.\nThat form earned Suarez a permanent move to Villarreal in 2015 and he performed even more impressively at El Madrigal, helping the Yellow Submarine qualify for the Champions League by scoring five goals and creating 11 others.\nAs a result, Barca decided to re-sign the former B team player the following summer by exercising their buy-back clause.\nThe youngster initially held his own in the Blaugrana's immensely competitive midfield. Indeed, Luis Enrique started Suarez 12 times in La Liga in 2016-17, while he also featured 14 times off the bench.\nWith Andres Iniesta, Sergio Busquets and Ivan Rakitic Barca's undisputed midfield trio and the likes of Arda Turan, Andre Gomes and Sergi Roberto also battling for first-team places, becoming a regular was never going to be easy.\nHowever, Luis Enrique had the utmost faith in Suarez's ability, even touting him as \"Iniesta's long-term replacement\".\n\"Why not? Players have to evolve. He has to improve. Iniesta is Harry Potter, he makes magic, and it is difficult to find another. But Denis is on the right path and I hope he can be Iniesta's heir.\n\"Denis is the youngest player in the squad and one of the few players to leave Barca B and be able to return. That is because of taking care of the ball but also working hard off the ball, which some players forget about.\n\"You have the ball for a minute or a minute-and-a-half in the game, so if you do not do well without it, you have no chance at this level. Denis understands that and he is well loved by his team-mates.\"\nSuarez wasn't loved by Luis Enrique's successor, though. After racking up over 1,000 minutes of action in his debut season at Camp Nou, he saw his on-field time halved in 2017-18 under new coach Ernesto Valverde and things have only gone from bad to worse this term.\nSuarez has managed a paltry 17 minutes of Liga action so far, with both Arturo Vidal and Arthur having leapfrogged him in the Barca pecking order.\nValverde has publicly insisted that Suarez \"has a future\" with the Blaugrana but also admitted that he will only be called upon when there is a need for rotation, admitting that he is just \"one more player in the squad\".\nConsequently, a reunion with Emery at Arsenal \u2013 who are in the market for midfield reinforcements given the imminent exit of Aaron Ramsey and the uncertainty surrounding Mesut Ozil \u2013 seems the perfect move.\nSuarez is seen as a strong option out wide, where he played so well under Emery at Sevilla, given with Barca he more often than not floundered occupying a more central attacking role.\nThere are certain financial complications, however. Having spent heavily last summer, the transfer kitty is all but empty at the Emirates, forcing the manager to exclusively pursue loan deals.\n\"We cannot sign anyone permanently,\" Emery said prior to Arsenal's defeat at the hands of West Ham last weekend. \"Only loan players this January.\"\nBarcelona, on the other hand, logically favour a permanent deal that would include yet another buy-back clause.\nBut negotiations are beginning to bear fruit.\nA six-month loan and non-binding purchase option now appears to be an acceptable compromise for both buyer and seller, while Suarez has made it clear that, having brushed off interest from other clubs, Arsenal's style of play and his pre-existing relationship with Emery make north London the perfect destination to kick-start his career.\nIf the deal does go through prior to the close of the January transfer window, the Gunners will have pulled off a transfer coup.\nSuarez may not have had what it takes to establish himself at Camp Nou but he has shown fleeting glimpses of his true talent \u2013 most recently against Levante in the Copa del Rey \u2013 that make it more than clear that he is not just another run of the mill player.\nAt just 25, he is entering his prime, and will come to the Emirates with more motivation than ever to prove his doubters in Catalunya wrong.\nSuarez and Emery did great things together at Sevilla, and despite the disappointment he has endured at Barcelona, there is no reason to think lightning cannot strike twice in north London.",

In Congress, he serves on the U.S. House Committee on Financial Services.\nPrior to his congressional service, Mr. Hill was an active and successful business man. For two decades, he participated in the Arkansas business community as a commercial banker and investment manager.\nHe now resides in Little Rock with his wife and two children.\nI believe that a citizen-led legislature is the foundation of our country. All citizens should consider stepping away from private life to serve in legislatures or on school boards, for example, or to get involved in any other form of public service.\n2. ) What was your dream job growing up?\nAs a kid, I had a fascination with marine biology and archeology. A job in either one of those fields could be described as my \u201cdream job\u201d growing up.\nLittle has changed! When I was 27 years old, I was a staffer on the Senate Banking Committee for Senator John Tower (R-TX). Thirty years later, obviously advances in technology and social media have made DC a different place, but I still see many of the same challenges for Congress that I saw when I was here in the 80\u2019s. Another thing that hasn\u2019t changed is the invaluable help of Capitol Hill interns.\nMy mother-in-law always appreciated my \u201cimitations\u201d of presidents past.\n5. What is the last book you read that you simply could not put down until you finished?\nI just finished Governor Sununu\u2019s memoir, The Quiet Man, about his time as Chief of Staff to my old boss, President George H.W. Bush. It is a great read, especially if you enjoy a look behind the curtains of the administration of man who\u2014in my opinion\u2014is one of the finest public servants in American history.\n6. Who is your biggest influence in your life?\nMy dad is my single biggest influence in my life. From being my favorite partner in canoeing, camping, and traveling in my youth, to serving as my best man in our wedding, to now at age 89, a terrific grandfather, he is an all-around amazing guy. He has been a fine role model as a dad, a civic leader, and business entrepreneur and manager.\nI was about age 10 when I first volunteered for Winthrop Rockefeller\u2019s campaign to be the first Republican Governor of Arkansas since Reconstruction. He was driven by policies to reform government, promote success for all Arkansans, and enhance economic growth. This experience, and a lot of my readings in my high school and college days, namely, \u201cthe Conscience of a Conservative\u201d by Senator Barry Goldwater, Rep. Jack Kemp\u2019s \u201cAn American Renaissance: a strategy for the 1980\u2019s\u201d, and Rep. Phil Crane\u2019s \u201cIn Sum of Good Government\u201d helped me to realize the Republican Party best represented my personal beliefs on economic growth and opportunity.\nThis isn\u2019t as much a policy issue as it is a public service announcement, but I am extremely focused on working with members of both parties to help shrink the skills gap in this country. There are so many good, aspirational jobs out there that are going unfilled because we don\u2019t have enough workers with the necessary skills to hold those jobs. Rep. Brenda Lawrence (D-MI) and I are co-chairs of the Congressional Investment in America\u2019s Skilled Workforce (CIAW) Caucus, and we are discussing creative ways beyond legislation to highlight these types of jobs, and encourage our youth to consider all potential occupations.\nI love to be in the mountains, preferably above \u201ctree line.\u201d As John Muir said, \u201cClimb the mountains and get their good tidings\u2026\u201d\n10. What is your most favorite meal that you like to cook?\nDuring dove and duck hunting season, I love to experiment with different ideas for grilling duck and dove meats.

        "raw_content": "Did you know that there are currently almost 2 million adult children living back at home with their parents? With many young adults priced out of the housing market, the modern phenomenon of offspring returning home to mum and dad on graduation from university even has a snappy name. This is the generation of the boomerang kids.\nBut despite becoming more and more common, the experience of adult children living at home can be a tricky one on both sides. Parents who have got used to their \u2018empty nest\u2019 and started making plans for the next stage of their life may find it difficult to readjust to living alongside their children once more, while the boomerang kids themselves will have grown in independence and maturity since they last lived at home. Getting the balance right between spending time together and retaining a sense of independence can be particularly difficult when boomerang kids and parents alike can easily regress to outdated roles of strict parent and stroppy teenager.\nSo, can a solution be found to help both generations live side by side in relative harmony? We at Green Studios certainly think so! Installing a garden studio outside the property could be the answer to all of these issues, and here\u2019s how. Self contained additional accommodation provides the ideal independent living space for adult children, allowing all parties to live separate lives and to retain their privacy. And when the boomerang kids eventually do leave home for good, the space can be utilised as guest accommodation, office space with garden views, or even a haven for burgeoning retirement hobbies.\nIf you have boomerang kids and the garden room solution is of interest to you, the next step is to find out more and see what\u2019s possible for your home. Planning permission for garden studios is always a question that is raised early on, but in many cases, it\u2019s not necessary for a construction of this type. Our experts have extensive experience in this area and will be happy to guide you. The cost of a garden room is another important issue to consider. However, it\u2019s worth bearing in mind that the extra space and functionality that your garden guest room brings will almost certainly add value to your property, and if you\u2019re lucky, the project may even pay for itself.\nIn terms of design ideas for your garden room accommodation, there are many possibilities. Self contained bathroom and kitchen facilities will make your garden guest room into a real home within a home. You can build a bungalow or include a mezzanine level to really make the most of the space. It\u2019s important to think about all the ways in which the space will be used, both as a living space for the boomerang kids, and after they have moved on. You\u2019ll be surprised at the clever design ideas that can help to create effective and functional mixed purpose accommodation.\nWhy not check out some of our case studies to find out how a garden room could be the perfect place to accommodate your boomerang kids?",

The author in this volume focuses her evaluation on Miller's relationship to his native land and to his adopted home in Europe as revealed in his writings and in the comments of his critics and friends. For Miller, expatriotism was both a personal and aesthetic pursuit and a stimulus for his criticism of life in America.\nMiller, Henry.\nBezalel Schatz. Preface in Exhibition Catalog.\nA Near Fine copy in blue paper folder. This is one of only 500 copies of this exhibition catalog with an original serigraph, numbered & signed by Schatz. The catalog features Miller's 11-page assessment of Schatz's life and career.

In his great triptych \"The Millennium,\" Bosch used oranges and other fruits to symbolize the delights of Paradise. Hence Henry Miller's title for this, one of his most appealing books, it tells the story of Miller's life on the Big Sur, a section of California coast where he lived for fifteen years. Big Sur is the portrait of a place?one of the most colorful in the U.S.and of the extraordinary people Miller knew there: writers (and writers who didn't write), mystics seeking truth in meditation (and the not-so-saintly looking for sex-cults or celebrity), sophisticated children and adult innocents; geniuses, cranks and the unclassifiable. Henry Miller writes with a buoyancy & brimming energy that are infectious. He has a fine touch for comedy. But this is also a serious book and the testament of a free spirit who has broken through the restraints and cliches of modern life to find within himself his own kind of paradise.\nExcerpt from \"Nexus\" in Prairie Schooner. Summer, 1959.\nA Very Good copy of this literary magazine.

In 1953, Miller at the top of his literary acclaim, stopped off in Barcelona to visit an old friend--Alfred Perles. Perles was part of Miller's inner circle of friends in Paris between 1930 and 1938. In the intervening years, the two friends had dramatic life changes and their \"reunion\" provided them the opportunity to remember the good days in Paris and savour the current world they were living in. 'Reunion In Barcelona' in a nutshell is a meeting in a little-known city between two writers who, according to their own accounts, spent the best part of their time laughing their heads of.\nSexus, Plexus & Nexus: The Rosy Crucifixion. Three Volumes Complete.\nA Near Fine crisp set of the trilogy in Fine bright unclipped jackets in the slipcase. There is a hardly discernible scrape across the front of one volume, else Fine. This trilogy centers on the somewhat fictionalized life of Miller from his New York life in 1928 to his departure for France in 1930. Miller depicts his tumultuous married life, his struggle to find his writing voice and the exploration of his philosophical and intellectual passions. Miller's Rosy Crucifixion, his second major trilogy, took more than 10 years for the author to complete. Beginning in 1949 with Sexus, a work so controversial all of Paris was abuzz with L'Affaire Miller, (and publisher Maurice Girodias saw himself threatened with jail), following in 1952 with Plexus, and finally concluding with 1959's Nexus, the three works are a dazzling array of scenes, sexual encounters and ideas, covering Miller's final days in NY, his relationship with June Miller and her lover, his take on the arts, his favorite writers, his thoughts, his insights, his days and his nights, finally ending with a glorious farewell to the life he'd known and an anticipation of the life he would lead.\nThe Books in My Life.\nAbout Very Good copy with light dampstain to the boards in a Very Good unclipped dust jacket with shallow chipping to the head & heel of the spine.

        "title": "Measuring mobile\u2019s impact on sustainable development at UNGA - Newsroom",
        "raw_content": "Measuring mobile\u2019s impact on sustainable development at UNGA\nThe GSMA was in New York last month to represent the mobile industry at the 73rd session of the UN General Assembly (UNGA).\nOver the course of the week the GSMA participated in a wide range of activities with several high-profile partners, providing a platform for dialogue between mobile industry leaders, heads of state, global leaders and governments to further accelerate mobile\u2019s contribution to the UN\u2019s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).\nThroughout the week we had a highly visible presence at the SDG Media Zone, a unique space at UNGA that allows attendees to participate in live interviews, panel discussions and special events. The Media Zone programme successfully showcased the wide range of initiatives that the global community is working on to support the 2030 Agenda. A round-up of all the activity is available on the UN website.\nThe GSMA also co-hosted several side events within the UN. On Monday 23 September, GSMA Chair Sunil Bharti Mittal and I participated in the session \u2018New Technologies and Mobile Solutions for Development: Business Driving Innovation for Social Good.\u2019 This event brought together global leaders and experts from the public and private sectors to discuss how to maximise innovation to deliver on the aspirations of the 2030 Agenda. Click here for coverage of the event.\nThe following day, the GSMA hosted a breakfast \u2013 under the theme Big Data for Better Lives \u2013 to explore how governments around the world can harness the power of big data as a means of tackling a range of global challenges \u2013 with a major focus on the GSMA\u2019s Big Data for Social Good (BD4SG) programme. Panellists included operator CEOs, representatives from UN agencies, and senior ministers from Norway, Belgium and Sierra Leone. Click here for coverage of the event.\nThe GSMA\u2019s Mobile for Development (M4D) team held a separate networking breakfast on the same morning under the theme Transforming Women\u2019s Lives with Mobile. This session focused on how mobile solutions are transforming the lives of women and their families by providing access to energy, water, clean cooking and nutrition information, and driving women\u2019s financial and digital inclusion.\nAway from UN HQ, we participated in several other related events in New York, including those held by the Broadband Commission for Sustainable Development, EQUALS, Concordia, One Planet Summit, and the WEF Sustainable Development Impact Summit, among others.\nWe also used UNGA week to publish the 2018 edition of our \u2018Mobile Industry Impact: Sustainable Development Goals\u2019 report, which revealed that the mobile industry is demonstrating significant and measurable impact in contributing to the SDGs.\nBased on a proprietary methodology, the study found that the industry\u2019s contribution to each of the 17 SDGs has increased year-on-year over the last three years as mobile operators worldwide increasingly embed the SDGs into their core values, strategies, policies and services, via real-world initiatives. The scores also allow us to see where we are having the greatest impact and where our contribution is growing fastest (see graphic).\nSource: GSMA Mobile Industry Impact report, 2018\nClick here to download the full report and also have a look at this article I wrote for the World Economic Forum, which highlights some key case studies from the report.\nThe effective use of mobile big data is a key tactic for delivering many of the SDGs and was therefore a big focus at UNGA. The BD4SG team published a case study on the work being done in India by Airtel and partners in using big data to analyse population movements to identify tuberculous (TB) hotspots. The launch of this study coincided with the UN\u2019s first-ever high-level meeting on how to accelerate efforts to eradicate TB \u2013 and surely big data has the potential to part of the solution. Read my recent blog on the issue here.\nMy key takeaway from UNGA is that our industry is now firmly playing a central role in accelerating delivery of the SDGs, by leveraging the power of mobile networks and services to transform lives around the world. However, while the 2030 deadline to meet the SDGs may seem a distant horizon today, it is critical that all stakeholders \u2013 governments, the mobile industry and others \u2013 take concerted and urgent action now to further accelerate progress over the coming years.",

        "raw_content": "It's A Strange World\n\u201cThere are images throughout that hint at the plight of artistry, the differentiating concepts of sleep reality and what we perceive to be the real world as well as the place of technology in recording what we consider to be real\u2026 heady material, to say the least. The TV image is also very important in this regard. However, taking my very vague ideas of what the filmmaker is trying to say and enjoying it for its surface level entertainment\u2026 I have a lot of respect for the movie.\u201d\nEve's perception of life gets distorted after she drinks out of a flower, finding herself floating through an incoherent dream and ultimately lost in the memories of her past, present and future. In the end, Eve's mind breaks the barriers of logic and eventually transcends consciousness.\nThree years in the making. It was 2006, and being in film school, I was fed up with all the rules and guidelines I had to obey to make a film. I studied screenwriting three years prior, and I found myself not interested in making a linear, coherent, and generic narrative film. My mindset was so focused on telling a story that is very abstract, very surreal, very silent, that evoked an unsettling emotion to those who would see it through its imagery.\nI started experimenting shooting various film stocks and film formats (i.e. super 8, 16mm, 35mm) that led me to discover how endless this medium can be and how you can tell so much with just images. I felt at times the images that I wanted to shoot where hard to write about, and with techniques like triple exposures or hand processing or double projection can radically open your eyes to a new cinema of endless boundaries. I couldn\u2019t even comprehend in writing, and my mind was trying to develop a new way of storytelling that was liberating and provocative.\nThe origins of the film started with my obsession to shoot a circus. I started my research, found the San Francisco school of the circus arts and I began talks with an amazing instructor there, name Helen, who encouraged me to shoot the performances in black and white 16mm. As I watched the various stuns, acrobats, performances, the idea for the whole story of the film came to fruition.\nThe idea was to tell a surreal story of a young woman\u2019s journey, witnessing various periods in her life through worlds of her past, present and future. Also, not limit myself to boundaries of story structure or guidelines I learned in film school, but to push the film medium\u2019s image as far as I can.\nThe writing of the film came as I was shooting it, the story developed later into four chapters: The Dream, The Circus, The Bunny, and The Awakening.\n1- THE DREAM: I wanted to have that chapter convey how it is drastically different from the other ones, and show the evolution of the imagery in nature by inter-cutting close-ups of Eve as she evolves. She finds a beautiful yellow flower that is the seed of her journey, the nectar she feeds on to help her live. The hallucinations that result from the nectar take her in a deep dream that prevents her to ever return home.\n2. THE CIRCUS: It is to me the key event that Eve experienced as a child, and developed her into the person of endless curiosity. This chapter is the most abstract one, yet realistically the most romantically relevant to Eve\u2019s life. In the beginning she dreams of her past lover, Adam, running away from her, to a pointless dream that he has been chasing, symbolized by him bowing down to a tree. The tree symbolizes his large and intangible ideologies, the object of mystery that caused their love to fall apart. From there we see ahead in the future, Eve as an old woman and her lover Adam sick in bed. They both are very different people, older and very distant. The box in Adam\u2019s room, is the portal to the place where they first met, and when her life turned upside down, the circus.\n3. THE BUNNY: Eve wakes up from her dream, finds herself in a different time and place. I wanted to use a childhood phobia, and find a satirical way to make the phobia an antagonist of the story. The bunny haunts her till he traps her in his though, in a circus world that is also very different from the ordinary circus world she saw as a child. An organ player, and an act of a masked man petting a toy tiger lead the stage circus. Eve dances on stage for the bunny\u2019s amusement, she notices herself trapped inside the television and right at that moment the lights go out.\n4. THE AWAKENING: Eve\u2019s mind begins to melt as she sees her life passing in front of her very fast. Through that, she transcends consciousness, and able to view everything so clearly. She sees herself thinking calmly, in an ideal world, of what she just encountered. Eve sees her whole life slowly through a window as it passes infront of her\nThis film has been a wonderous three-year adventure into a world of film that is experimental, limitless, and simple. I found peace in letting myself go as an artist, with a very small crew, and years of work and conceptualization.

        "raw_content": "Home About Hawk Law Group Reviews\nOn the wee hours of the morning I was in a major car accident on May 6, 2009 which I was thrown out of the window of the passenger side of a car. I was left with two shattered femur bones, fractured neck, and fractured right arm. Thank God I\u2019m still alive to tell this story, but it was one of the worst experiences of my life!!! The bright side of the whole situation was that I had a great team of lawyers working for me in the process of suing the drunk driver and the owner of the car I was in. Friends of mine recommended this law firm and Vic Hawk because they were close friends with him and he had handled cases for them. It\u2019s funny that they recommended him because my parents were clients of one of the lawyer in this firm. I remember loving coming to this office because they would have a box of toys they would give away that were gently used. My brother and I got some good toys from that box and loved them for a long time. Vic Hawk is a very busy man handling several cases in the CSRA, so a lot of time I was unable to see him but he has a great team of people who help him with his cases and investigate things that need to be done. I met with about 3 people on his team, one of them being another lawyer in the firm, Reid Sanders. I had a hard time remember a lot of the details with the accident and that made it hard to tell what exactly happened because I was knocked unconscious as the other car ran into the back of us. I only remember seeing headlights in the windshield, the impact, and me waking up in the grass with both of my knees facing each other!!!! OUCH!!! The paralegal that was handling the case kept asking me questions about the accident but I just couldn\u2019t remember anything. This really aggravated me because he would not let up. I did win both cases and was awarded two settlements, but that was only half of the work because I had to go to physical therapy and learn to walk again. I would have to crawl around on my butt to get around. My whole life was put on hold because of this. Let\u2019s not talk about the pain either!!! It was hard for me to sit for long periods of time and move around without extreme pain. It was quite a humbling experience but thank God for a great team of lawyers to get the work done with professionalism and tact. This experience could not have been any better without their hard work. This was my very first time dealing with lawyers and suing someone and now I have a very high expectations of lawyers from here on out.",

        "raw_content": "Happily Married Couples Consider Themselves Healthier, Says MU Expert\nCOLUMBIA, Mo. \u2013 Research shows that married people have better mental and physical health than their unmarried peers and are less likely to develop chronic conditions than their widowed or divorced counterparts. A University of Missouri expert says that people who have happy marriages are more likely to rate their health as better as they age; aging adults whose physical health is declining could especially benefit from improving their marriages.\nChristine Proulx, an assistant professor in the MU Department of Human Development and Family Studies, examined the long-term relationship between self-rated health and marital quality. She found that, in all stages of marriage, positive or negative relationships affect the individuals\u2019 health. Spouses should be aware that how they treat each other and how happy they are in their marriages affect both partners\u2019 health, and they should think more about their personal relationships when thinking holistically about their health, she said.\n\u201cWe often think about the aging process as something we can treat medically with a pill or more exercise, but working on your marriage also might benefit your health as you age,\u201d Proulx said. \u201cEngaging with your spouse is not going to cure cancer, but building stronger relationships can improve both people\u2019s spirits and well-being and lower their stress.\u201d\nProulx suggests that health professionals consider patients\u2019 personal relationships when designing health promotion programs or treatment plans.\n\u201cPhysicians should recognize that the strength of patients\u2019 marriages might affect their health,\u201d she said. \u201cI suspect we\u2019d have higher rates of adherence to treatment plans for chronic illnesses if medical professionals placed more of an emphasis on incorporating families and spouses in patients\u2019 care. If spouses understand their partners\u2019 disease and how to treat it at home, and the couple has a strong marriage, both people\u2019s health could improve.\u201d\nProulx analyzed data from 707 continuously married adults who participated in the Marital Instability Over the Life Course panel study, a 20-year, nationwide research project started in 1980 with funding from the Social Security Administration\u2019s Office of Research and Statistics and the National Institute on Aging.\nMost study participants were Caucasian, had more than high school educations, and earned more than $55,000 in annual family income in 2000. Because of these characteristics, Proulx says the participants probably had some protection against marital and health challenges more commonly faced by people of different ethnicities or with less education or income.\nThe study, \u201cThe Longitudinal Associations between Marital Happiness, Problems, and Self-Rated Health,\u201d will be published in the upcoming issue of the Journal of Family Psychology. Proulx co-authored the study with Linley Snyder-Rivas, an alumna of the Department of Human Development and Family Studies in the MU College of Human Environmental Sciences.\nStory Contact: Jesslyn Chew, (573) 882-8353, ChewJ@missouri.edu",

        "raw_content": "From virtual doctor visits, to in-app messaging with hospital administrators and more, there\u2019s no doubt technology has paved the way for additional avenues of communication for patients and their healthcare providers.\nOne growing opportunity is in online or digital health coaching. And there\u2019s early support for its efficacy in managing certain conditions, particularly ones that require lifestyle interventions.\nBecause digital health coaching enables personalized care and one-on-one communication between a patient and a care provider, it is uniquely positioned to help improve the lives of people who are making lifestyle changes and may need ongoing guidance or motivation to sustain these changes.\nIn some recent studies, digital health coaching yielded meaningful results in people living with type 2 diabetes and in those with rheumatoid arthritis. Overall, participants in these studies showed a stronger adherence to lifestyle changes associated with their conditions.\nIn the study of 756 people with type 2 diabetes, participants lost weight and lowered their A1C levels over the course of one year. After the 12-month period, average weight loss was 4.5lb and average A1C reduction was .92%.\nIn the 12-week study of 127 people with rheumatoid arthritis who received digital health coaching, researchers saw that participants lost weight, increased their physical activity, increased their amount of sleep, and decreased alcohol and tobacco consumption. In fact, flare frequency of their rheumatoid arthritis decreased by nearly half.\nFurther Research is Still Needed\nAll this suggests that health coaching could help people improve healthy behaviors and could help decrease adverse symptoms in certain conditions.\nTo learn more about Behavior Change download the whitepaper: THE NEW BEHAVIOR CHANGE MODEL.\nAmanda Natividad leads editorial strategy for Fitbit Health Solutions.

        "raw_content": "Top 5 Places to Experience BC\u2019s Mountains\nBy Destination British Columbia May 6, 2015\nBritish Columbia is defined by the grandeur of its nature, and one of the province\u2019s most defining features is its towering mountain ranges. There are 10 mountain ranges stretching from the United States to the Yukon, and from Alberta to the Pacific Ocean. There are rainforest-covered mountains that drop straight into the ocean, dramatic and imposing peaks rising above stunning turquoise lakes, and mountains that offer some of the world\u2019s best heli-skiing in winter and heli-hiking in summer. These mountains are home to a huge range of wildlife, including bears, mountain goats, bighorn sheep, moose, deer and caribou.\nWe recently asked our Facebook fans to suggest one spot in BC that visitors should visit to really experience these spectacular mountains. Here are their top five recommendations:\nWhistler Village on a summer evening. Photo: Albert Normandin\nOur fans\u2019 number five pick is one of the most popular destinations for visitors to BC \u2013 Whistler. This mountain city has it all. Unforgettable mountain scenery wraps around a charming village bursting with a renowned dining scene, boutique shopping, spas, galleries and museums\u2026 truly something for everyone. In winter, Whistler Blackcomb is widely regarded as the top resort in North America. In summer, the possibilities for outdoor adventure are endless. Mountain biking is huge here, as is hiking to jaw-dropping mountain vistas. Hike up the mountain, or catch a ride most of the way up and admire the scenery from a gondola.\n4. Fisher Peak, near Cranbrook\nFisher Peak from St. Eugene Golf Resort & Casino. Photo: Don Weixl Photo\nNext on the list is Fisher Peak. This challenging climb takes you to a vantage point 2,846 m (9,337 ft) above sea level, with a panoramic view out over the southern Rocky Mountains and the Kootenay River valley. This is the tallest peak in the southern Rockies, and it dominates the skyline. The ascent is not for the faint of heart, with a vertical gain of more than 1,400 m (4,593 ft) from the trailhead, gained over a roughly 8-km (5-mi) hike. But it is worth every grueling step as you pass forest, meadow, wildflowers, creek, waterfall and a final scramble up steep spires to the top. The view from way up there will not soon be forgotten.\n3. Mount Assiniboine\nMount Assiniboine. Photo: Albert Normandin\nComing in at number three is Mount Assiniboine, in the heart of BC\u2019s Rocky Mountains. Assiniboine is one of the most iconic mountains in the province due to its striking resemblance to the famous Matterhorn (located in the Alps, on the border between Switzerland and Italy). The mountain itself is part of Mount Assiniboine Provincial Park, which is tucked between Kootenay National Park and Banff National Park along the BC/Alberta border. One of the park\u2019s major draws is the fact that it is very remote, yet extremely accessible. Those with an adventurous spirit can hike in and camp, or those who prefer a more gentle approach can arrange to be helicoptered into Assiniboine Lodge, and conserve their energy for day hikes up to stunning Rocky Mountain vistas.\n2. Tweedsmuir Provincial Park\nEcho Lake, South Tweedsmuir Provincial Park. Photo: Albert Normandin\nThe number two pick is massive Tweedsmuir Provincial Park, BC\u2019s biggest at nearly 1 million hectares. Among its most notable features is the spectacular Rainbow Range, volcanic mountains coloured in vibrant red, orange, yellow and lavendar rock. Hiking and pack trips are popular here, and the park is known as a bear viewing destination due to the large number of bears who call Tweedsmuir home. Also popular are multi-day canoeing trips on the Turner Lake canoe circuit, which can be accessed via floatplane or via a hiking trail that passes the 260 m (853 ft) tall Hunlen Falls. Tweedsmuir Park Lodge is a great place to start your adventure!\n1. Mount Robson\nMumm Basin, Mount Robson Provincial Park. Photo: \u00a9 Veer Incorporated\nOur fans\u2019 most recommended place to experience BC\u2019s mountains is the iconic Mount Robson, the highest peak in the Canadian Rockies. Mount Robson Provincial Park is a mecca for outdoor enthusiasts, boasting a ton of hiking trails, from ultra-accessible strolls to multi-day wilderness camping excursions. Among the most popular and most beautiful is the very popular Berg Lake Trail, which takes hikers past some of the most spectacular scenery in the province. Experience the Valley of a Thousand Falls, and marvel at gorgeous Berg Lake itself, which sits at the base of the three glaciers!\nDid we miss one of your favourite BC mountain destinations?

        "raw_content": "Winter is a Wonderful Time to View Bighorn Sheep in BC\nBy Chris Harris January 23, 2014\nOne of my favourite winter activities here in the Cariboo Chilcotin Coast region of BC is going for a winter drive after a slight snow fall, when it becomes easier to see and identify animal tracks. If you get out of your vehicle and go for a snowshoe, you will see a great variety of animal tracks, both large and small. Some of the smaller tracks you may come across are marten, snowshoe hare, and, of course, the little critters such as squirrels, mice, and voles.\nLarger tracks include deer, moose, and as is shown in the photograph above, California bighorn sheep. Bighorn sheep live close to the rugged canyon walls above the Fraser and Chilcotin rivers.\nOften, I don\u2019t even have to get out of my vehicle. The photograph above made out my driver\u2019s window, shows a sheep walking by, partially obscured by a snow bank.\nA few kilometers further, I made another image, this time a small herd as they crossed the road in front of me and ran off across the grasslands.\nFrom Williams Lake, a good drive to take is west toward Riske Creek along Hwy 20, and then south to Farwell Canyon and the Chilcotin River. Wildlife sightings or not, it\u2019s a wonderful and very beautiful drive on a winters day. Good luck!",

According to reports in the US, the superstar couple has purchased three-acres of land worth $3.5 million from actor Rob Lowe and wife Sheryl where they plan to build a lavish new home. Their compound will be less than a mile down the road from a stunning $50 million mansion owned by Oprah Winfrey.\nThe Cruises are, of course, already well acquainted with their new neighbour. It was on the chat show queen's couch that Tom famously declared his love for the Batman Begins actress in 2005. Among the wealthiest communities in the US, Montecito is home to other big showbiz names including Steve Martin, Steven Spielberg and Kirk Douglas.\nHis new vacation property isn't the only thing on Tom's mind at the moment, though. The Mission: Impossible star is also apparently planning a little sightseeing. Currently filming his latest movie Valykrie in Berlin, the 45-year-old is reportedly keen to pop over to the UK to see North London's legendary Abbey Road studios. Sixties music aficionado Tom is said to be a big Beatles fan and wants to see the zebra crossing where the Fab Four posed for their Abbey Road album cover.\n\"They remind him of his teenage years,\" says one Hollywood source. \"He's known to play guitar and drums at his Beverly Hills home to such classics as Wild Thing by The Troggs and You Really Got Me by the Kinks.\"",

        "title": "The Enduring Significance of U.S. National Parks | Here",
        "raw_content": "Travel JournalJames Mills\nJournalist James Edward Mills learned to love the outdoors as a Cub Scout. Now, his work investigates representation in outdoor spaces; Mills chronicled the first all-African American summit attempt on Denali in his book, The Adventure Gap. \u201cWe need to understand that diversity isn\u2019t a goal in itself, but rather the outcome of an environment that is welcoming to all people, he says. He is also the founder of the Joy Trip Project, which is an \u201congoing search to find the answers and discover how to lead a harmonious life in balance with the natural world and the rest of humanity.\u201d For Here Magazine\u2018s sixth issue, he reflects on why national parks are a critical piece of the American cultural fabric.\nOn the banks of the Colorado River, I struggled with my camera settings to take a photograph. It was two in the morning and the light was perfect. That is to say, during this particular phase of the moon in mid-May 2016, there was no light. The shining lights of the nearest city were far, far away. With no clouds to block my view, in absolute darkness, only the radiance of distant planetary systems shone down from the Arizona night sky.\nWith the aperture set to full, I clicked the shutter for a timed exposure of 30 seconds. I held my breath as I attempted to capture what too few people today can witness. High above me, the walls of the Grand Canyon stood out in dark contrast against the glow of the Milky Way. A wide band of twinkling light wound its way like a ribbon overhead, tracing the flow of water beneath it. Just as my friend, the author Kevin Fedarko, described in his book The Emerald Mile, there it was, \u201ca river of shooting stars.\u201d\nAfter years of wishing, I finally had the chance to see this remarkable sight with my own eyes. The canyon\u2019s rim carved a path through the heavens that was glorious to behold. Even as a professional in the outdoor recreation industry, I had spent much of my career waiting for the opportunity to paddle the length of the Colorado through the Grand Canyon, a journey of 226 miles. For more than a decade, a cadre of friends and colleagues had applied, year after year, to receive one of the few non-commercial permits to make the trip from the put-in at Lee\u2019s Ferry near Flagstaff to the take-out at Diamond Creek, on the tribal land of the Hualapai Nation. Though I could have bought passage on a voyage with a guide service, the cost of such an expedition is prohibitively expensive for my limited budget as a freelance journalist. Besides, I was eager to experience the freedom of a no-frills adventure with a crew of fellow travelers who had shared the same dream for so long.\nIt\u2019s important to understand that despite its incredible size, depth, and length, gouged from the earth\u2019s crust over millions of years, the Grand Canyon is a limited natural resource. Although nearly five million people will visit the canyon\u2019s rim each year, fewer than 16,000 backcountry permits were issued in 2017. The presence of human beings in this fragile ecosystem exacts a heavy toll on the flora, fauna, land, and water. In order to preserve a delicate balance of each for future generations to enjoy, we must do all that we can to reduce our impact on this and other wild places\u2014even if we may seldom visit.\nOperated by the United States Department of the Interior, the Grand Canyon is among the 417 units of the National Park System. This number includes wildlife preserves, recreation areas, seashores, lake shores, parkways, and scenic trails. There are also national monuments, battlefields, memorials, and historic sites. Each location, no matter how small or large, preserves a portion of both our national and natural heritage. From the iconic parks at Yellowstone, Sequoia, and Yosemite to the hallowed grounds of Gettysburg, the Lincoln Memorial, and the home of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., the National Park Service retains the collective memory of the American people for posterity and affirms the enduring legacy of personal liberty and freedom, which is the birthright of every citizen.\nOur national parks are the embodiment of the American dream.\nOur national parks are the embodiment of the American dream. They represent both our capacity to roam freely upon the earth in our pursuit of happiness and our obligation to defend that same privilege for others to enjoy. This ingenious notion of preserving wild places was described in 1983 by the novelist Wallace Stegner. \u201cThe national parks are the best idea we ever had,\u201d he wrote. \u201cAbsolutely American, absolutely democratic, they reflect us at our best rather than our worst.\u201d\nBy setting aside federally protected land for the general public to experience the joys of nature, we have created a positive incentive for the people of our nation to strive toward peace and prosperity that may last for millennia. For us to enjoy the spectacular beauty of canyons, rivers, deserts, prairies, mountains, and lakes for generations to come, we must do our best to tread lightly on the earth and leave few traces of our passing. But in order for this idea to materialize, each citizen must be prepared to share these natural resources, and make them available to those visitors we may never meet, in the hope that they, too, will one day stand in their defense.\nThrough the National Park System, I have enjoyed the greatest freedoms our nation has to offer.\nThrough the National Park System, I have enjoyed the greatest freedoms our nation has to offer. As I travel with friends along the Colorado River in an ecstatic adventure of white water rapids and hidden slot canyons, I am constantly reminded that this privilege is only made possible by those who came before me, those who demanded the preservation of nature. I know that if I am to experience wonders such as these through the rest of my lifetime, I, too, am personally obligated to defend the freedom of others to visit our national parks.\nThere beneath the river of shooting stars, I sat gazing up in wonder and awe. A more talented photographer could have captured this amazing spectacle far better than I. But it is my hope that, through my words, I may inspire some other traveler to imagine what it might take to see what I have seen. If it requires a decade spent dreaming, would they insist that this place be preserved and protected until they finally arrive? We must demand it. And though it may take years, we will find it worth the wait.",

Their positive attitudes, progress and achievement, great behaviour, and their obvious pride in their school were all commented on favourably by the inspectors, as was the leadership they give through the school councils and clubs. They know how to stay safe and our work to promote safety, including on line safety, was described as very thorough.\n\u201cPupils are well prepared to be the next generation of adults in modern Britain.\u201d\n\u201cPupils have positive attitudes to learning \u2026.their conduct around the school is good and often exemplary.\u201d \u201cMost pupils conduct themselves impeccably and walk around the large school estate sensibly and considerately. They move through corridors calmly\u2026..\u201d\n\u201cPupils care for each other and their community\u201d; \u201cPupils value their education and most take responsibility for their conduct. \u201cAchievement has improved sharply\u2026\u2026results in English, Mathematics and Humanities are particularly strong.\u201d\n\u201cThere has been a marked improvement in provision and outcomes since the last inspection.\u201d\n\u201cThe quality of teaching has improved since the last inspection and, where substantive staff are in post, is consistently good and often outstanding.\u201d\n\u201cThe senior leaders have carefully steered the school\u2019s improvement and strengthened teaching.\u201d \u201cTeaching is particularly strong in English, Mathematics and Humanities subjects as well as in Music and Art.\u201d\n\u201cThe most-able pupils achieve well, particularly in English and mathematics \u2026\u2026.the school\u2019s work to promote pupils\u2019 independence and resilience prepares the most able pupils particularly well for the next phase of their education.\u201d\nThe Sixth Form came in for praise too. All of the teaching for the Sixth Form was strong and the report praised staff who \u201c\u2026use their thorough understanding of subjects and the examination syllabus to plan effective lessons.\u201d Sixth Form learners are \u201chappy, courteous and responsible\u201d and were praised for their contribution to running school committees and clubs and for their charity work. Sixth Form leaders \u201cset high targets and expectations are raised about what learners need to do to achieve high standards.\u201d\nI was particularly pleased that the success of our \u2018Gateway School\u2019, which provides alternative provision for our most vulnerable students, was recognised as valuable and strong.\nVirtually all departments came in for praise and even in the areas where it is proving difficult to recruit (Science and MFL) and where progress has therefore been somewhat slower, Ofsted nevertheless have recognised the improvements we have been able to make over the last two years.\nI would like to thank staff, governors and students for their hard work in achieving these improvements. I would also like to thank you the parents for your support. There is still more to do, if we are to achieve the \u2018outstanding\u2019 judgement that I know we can. Being recognised as \u2018good across the board\u2019 provides a welcome acknowledgement for everyone\u2019s hard work and a great platform from which to achieve even higher standards.\nAs always, we are keen to hear about any areas where we can improve and I will be discussing with staff and governors how we can act on this feedback in the most effective way for our students.\nIn the meantime if you have any comments or questions on the Ofsted report, do please get in touch.\nThe full report can be found attached below or on the Ofsted website from 8th June at http://reports.ofsted.gov.uk\nThe next parents\u2019 forum is on 7th June at 7.00p.m. and this will be an opportunity to discuss the Ofsted feedback in greater detail with you, and also to seek your views on how we can get more parents to engage actively with the school.

        "raw_content": "The speaker was not notably charismatic or eloquent. In fact, he did nothing more than sit on a chair, talking quietly about intimacy with God.\nI don\u2019t even remember what he said. But I can tell you one thing: this man knew Jesus.\nSomething about the way he spoke of Him was different than what I\u2019d heard in churches. Real. Authentic. I could tell that Jesus was with him. It made me hungry to know Jesus that way, too.\nFrom that day on, it became a lifelong passion of mine to know this God that was more than words, more than religion, and more than the ritual prayers I had been taught as a girl. I saw that the way I prayed was dry and passionless. Meeting someone who loved Jesus and spoke with authority about intimacy with God had a life-changing effect on me.\nLater, I discovered that this speaker was a pastor whose ministry extended well beyond the four walls of his church. His effectiveness in ministry was a direct result of his personal commitment to prayer. He exemplified the primary goal of prayer, which is to know God and make Him known.\nPaul wrote in Philippians: \u201cI count all things loss for the excellence of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord\u2026 that I may know Him and the power of His resurrection, and the fellowship of His sufferings\u2026\u201d (NKJV)\nWhy pray? Because when you have a dynamic prayer life with God, it shows. You don\u2019t even need to say anything sometimes: people will see Jesus in you and be drawn to you because they want to know Him more.\nI used to wonder why strangers approached me in stores and began telling me their life stories. (This happens more often than I like to admit!) Couldn\u2019t they see that I was in a hurry, busy trying to shop for my own family? Now I know that it isn\u2019t me they\u2019re talking to, it\u2019s Jesus in me. They are seeking what I sought earlier: a life-giving relationship with Christ.\nFriends, the only way people are going to see Jesus is if YOU are full of His Presence! God has decided that for the most part, this is how He wants to reveal Himself to the world \u2013 through us.\nOne man\u2019s authentic relationship with Jesus changed me forever. The Presence of God in Him was more convicting than any sermon. Is your life this powerful? Do you know Jesus this way?\n1. Have you ever had an encounter with God that convinced you of His reality and Presence in your world? If so, take a moment to remember the details. Thank God for your experience of Him!\n2. If not, why not? It\u2019s up to you! Read Jeremiah 29:13, Proverbs 8:17, and Matthew 7:7-8. These scriptures show clearly that those who seek God wholeheartedly DO find Him, just as I did years ago. Make a quality decision to diligently seek the One who longs to be found by you!\n3. Pray this prayer with me: Father, I thank you for Your Presence that abides in me! (John 15:4.) Let Your light shine brightly as I move through this world, and help me to identify those times when people see You in me, so that I can love them as you loved me! Help me to develop a life of authentic intimacy with You that impacts those around me, so that they long to know You, too. Amen.\n\u00a9 Deborah Perkins / www.HisInscriptions.com.

Basically, if you\u2019re after a low cost and relaxing way to get around the country, then look no further!\nOne final word; Megabus, the super cheap coach company, now offers low cost fares to Europe from many of Britain\u2019s biggest cities. At the time of writing, these European destinations include Paris, Boulogne, Brussels, Gent and Amsterdam.\nLocal buses are usually run by private companies but are subsidised by local government. In larger cities such as London and Manchester there is an extensive bus service, however in the more rural areas the services tend to be infrequent and with limited coverage.\nIn London the extensive local bus system is integrated with the tube, trams and rail services within the city. This means that your travelcards and Oyster cards will work seemlessly with all of the transport options.

That may have been what happened after a multi-car crash on the Gulf Freeway that involved four vehicles early Thursday morning.\nIn an article that appeared on the Chron.com website, authorities with the Houston TranStar report that the crash occurred at approximately 6:00 a.m. causing a shut down to four lanes and left traffic and resulting in a major snarl for that morning\u2019s daily commute.\nNo further information as to the names of those involved or any injuries resulting from the crash has been released at this time.\nSafety experts agree that keeping a one car length distance between vehicles can help prevent serious car accidents. Many accidents are the result of tailgating and being unable to stop a vehicle in front of them suddenly stops or changes lanes without warning.\nOf course, no one can truly know when an accident will happen or what the circumstances surrounding it will be. Even if a driver should take every precaution in order to keep safe, they may still be involved in an accident and often through no fault of their own. That\u2019s the time to seek a lawyer.\nIf you are involved in a multi-car accident, try to take pictures of the scene and get as much information as you can from the participants. These details are crucial should you have to file a lawsuit against your insurance company if they pay you too little for the incident.",

        "title": "Chef Chat: Monica Pope of t'afia | Houston Press",
        "raw_content": "Chef Chat: Monica Pope of t'afia\nE. Ting\nE. Ting | October 26, 2009 | 12:33pm\nArguably the most admired chef in Houston and probably the most lauded in the past decade, the ubiquitous Monica Pope runs t'afia restaurant (3701 Travis Street), hosts the Midtown Farmers Market every Saturday morning, presides at Beaver's, and teaches weekly classes at the Green Plum Cooking School. As this interview shows, locavore messiah Monica Pope is a chef on fire.\nWhere did you first come across the term \"t'afia?\" I saw it in a Michel Bras cookbook. It's an infused wine but also a celebratory toast--and we were already making infused liquors at Boulevard Bistrot. I liked that it was short and used a \"t\" sound.\nDo you often read food lit? Oh, yeah! I was reading [Alice Water's] The Art of Simple Food during Ike. I know all the stuff in there, but it was good to read that I knew it. And it gave me ideas about how to talk about simple cooking in classes.\nWhat led you to a cooking career? My mother's mother upheld the family cooking traditions, mostly Czech food, but after raising 13 siblings, plus her own kids, she was tired and wanted to go to KFC. Grandkids who showed an interest could get a sense from her of how to cook well. As a teenager, I worked with my grandmother for two summers, and later I started cooking for the art collectors who gathered at my parents' house. In the summer of '82, I worked in the kitchen at Caf\u00e9 Annie. My employment at my dad's law office lasted two days, and that was two days too many. He would agree. I traveled in Europe and California for ten years, but I always knew I'd come back to Houston and open a restaurant.\nWhat did you like about cooking? Being with people. It was too easy for me to isolate myself, and kitchen experience brought me out of my shell. I was thrown into a group I may not have chosen, but I understood cooking to be all about interacting, even though it can be extremely stressful.\nHow do you feel about restaurants that fly in fresh ingredients from other time zones? Does that violate the spirit of your food philosophy? I get that. Our mantra is \"Eat where your food lives.\" The first step is always to support the local community, but I set myself up. People complained when we served Tasmanian salmon, so I put, \"Okay, he walked here\" on the menu. But I do push to invest into a life connected to where you are. If I have an opportunity to showcase a dish that can be made with ingredients in season, I believe I should start with local purveyors.\nWhat influenced you to maintain t'afia's spare industrial look? I have a San Francisco attitude of less intensity, and I wanted a space that had not been a restaurant. t'afia is not a spectacular piece of architecture; it's an old carpet-cleaning facility, but artists love it. I was concerned about the way the bare bricks and windows looked, but the bricks were polished and we covered the windows with metal blinds. The space from the bar back is basically new construction. Even though Boulevard Bistrot was a more traditional space, we were able to maintain and add to our customer base.\nYou're writing a book called Eating Hope. Could you explain the title? I read a line, something like \"Careful, you could starve from eating hope.\" I was hoping I could make a change in Houston, but sometimes I question if I'll ever be nourished. I'm not sure this community is ready for a complete change. I wish we could build back what we once had--markets everywhere. We just eat a lot of processed food and people are overweight, sick, miserable and sad, not knowing what to be connected to. Right now the book reads sweet, funny and bitter and resentful. Sometimes I look at people and think, What the fuck are you doing eating in your car? But I don't want the book to be bitter. There are now [farmers'] markets, you just have to find them. I have a great life here--and it's not about money. Houston is filled with diverse cultures, and I can borrow from all of them. I'm a Houston chef who cooks Houston food.\nHave you made any mistakes in your career? I've made a lot of mistakes. Maybe I would do similar things without being labeled in a certain way. I would focus more on enjoyment rather than a call to arms. I've faced an uphill battle in my own mind, and I haven't always remembered to please myself first.\nHas being a woman chef been an issue? Women are evaluated completely differently, and that has been blatant in my career. There's been a lot of \"let's put her on a pedestal then string her up.\" Sometimes reporters or reviewers want to give credit to some guy they believe is in the kitchen. Alice Waters has had the same issue. Guys--and it usually is men--want to minimize her influence on the food. You can tell me my food is crap, but don't say it's not mine. These attitudes are just the reality. No one can tell me it's not. What's your favorite recipe in The Art of Simple Food? Long-cooked broccoli. It goes totally against a chef's nature and made me uneasy, but I love it. It's cooked an hour with red chili, lemon juice, salt and pepper. That's it. Some woman in my class said, \"Won't that destroy the nutrients?\" and I thought, Fuck the nutrients--this is fantastic! It's like making a soup--so nourishing and wonderful. You can cook turnips this way and you just smash them; you become part of this physical act. There aren't many steps. You get to just smash it and eat it. Some good old boy came to five classes, then followed me around to tell me, \"I really like vegetables.\" He didn't know fresh vegetables could be that good. These things are not technically involved. You just have to peel and chop, and you always come up with something good.",

The revamped blockbuster took five awards, including for Best Director, Best Sci-Fi/Fantasy, Best Visual Effects and for both Best Male and Female Newcomers, John Boyega and Daisy Ridley. Both British stars were in the room to receive their gongs, and John told the crowd he was thrilled to share the moment with his \"Peanut\".\n'Star Wars' stars John Boyega and Daisy Ridley had a moment to share as they won Best Male And Female Newcomer gongs at the Jameson Empire Film Awards.\nAlicia Vikander won Best Actress for her role in 'The Danish Girl', an award she can add to her Oscar for the film, while Best TV Series was a bit of a surprise, with 'This is England '90' beating bigger behemoths like 'Game of Thrones'.\nThe biggest cheer of the night came for the announcement of 'Film Legend'. For the first time, this award was presented posthumously, to actor Alan Rickman who died in January. The moving montage of his work, from 'Die Hard' to 'Harry Potter', was a reminder of just what a loss to the film world he will be.\nPhoto gallery Jameson Empire Film Awards See Gallery\nJameson Empire Film Awards\nMORE: ukfilm Matt Damon Star Wars",

        "raw_content": "Pay & Stay Program\nPAY-N-STAY INMATE WORKER PROGRAM\nThe Huntington Beach Police Department offers a Pay-N-Stay program for individuals given the opportunity to serve their sentence in an alternate sentencing program. This is a fee-based program available to qualified men and women who have been convicted and sentenced for a misdemeanor offense to serve time in a city jail.\nThe Pay-N-Stay Program is an opportunity for men and women to work or attend school in the community while serving their sentences at night and on weekends. Checkout times are established for morning releases and return for check-in in the evening based on the individual sentence. Work Release Inmates may also participate in Court ordered treatment in the community during their stay.\nThe Pay-N-Stay Inmate Worker Program is an alternative to serving a sentence in a County Jail. With the permission of the sentencing court, men and women may select to serve their sentence in the Huntington Beach City Jail as inmate workers. Sentences are served on consecutive days, to include weekends.\nPay-N-Stay Inmates are housed separate from all other inmates and will have minimal contact with the non-sentenced inmates. Pay-N-Stay Inmates will assist with minor chores during their stay. These chores include cleaning, laundry, trash removal, etc. Applicants to these programs that are unable or unwilling to follow the rules and instructions given by Jail Staff will be transferred to the Orange County Jail.\nThe Huntington Beach City Jail is limited in size and ability to house all types of inmates. Due to these limitations, we do have some restrictions. In order to ensure that we are able to meet the inmate needs, all applicants need to submit an application, complete a medical questionnaire, and be interviewed prior to receiving approval to enroll in one of our programs. Once an application is received, the Jail Staff will contact the applicant and schedule an interview to discuss the programs.\nAll applicants requesting to serve their sentence in the Huntington Beach City Jail are required to receive a test for Tuberculosis and been cleared within 90 days of starting their sentence. The test is the responsibility of the applicant and must be administered by a licensed medical provider. The cost of the Tuberculosis test will be the responsibility of the applicant and the applicant must show written proof prior to being accepted to begin serving any sentence.\nAll applicants that have been approved for the program and are authorized for work release are required to agree to and wear a GPS tracking device. Applicants must agree to the wearing and maintenance of the device prior to acceptance and being allowed to leave for work. The cost of the device use has been included in the rates below.\nThe Full-Time Pay-N-Stay Inmate Worker Program costs $150.00 for the first day and $100.00 for each subsequent day for the remainder of the sentence. Work Release Inmates are charged the same as the Full-Time inmates, plus $10.00 a day for the cost of GPS tracking and monitoring. Accepted applicants will be required to make the two week's payment prior to starting their sentence. Inmates that have sentences beyond one week will be required to make payments on the 1st and 15th of each month until all payments are collected. Once the sentence is successfully completed and all payments are collected the inmate will receive a letter of completion.\nIf you are interested in applying for the Pay-N-Stay alternate sentencing programs, print the Sentence Application, (requires Adobe Acrobat) complete the application, and fax it to the HUNTINGTON BEACH CITY JAIL at (714) 536-5698. If you have further questions, you may call (714) 374-5395.",

It is expected to be aggravated in the future by the impacts of climate change\", said NRC's secretary general Jan Egeland.\nThe report said that today, twice as many people are being displaced compared with the 1970s.\nNo region in the world is immune from potential natural disasters and \"higher average levels of displacement are to be expected in the coming decades.\n\"Demographic trends and vulnerability will continue to be the primary drivers of displacement risk, and changes in the frequency and intensity of extreme weather events are expected to add to this risk.\"\nThe report suggested that in order to prevent such huge displacements as the ones occurred in 2013, governments should do more to protect people who live in vulnerable areas and reduce their exposure to hazards.\n\"Most disasters are as much man-made as they are natural,\" said IDMC's director, Alfredo Zamudio. \"Better urban planning, flood defences and building standards could mitigate much of their impact\".\nProposed Textbooks in Texas \\'Contain False Information on Climate Change\\'\nKashmir Floods Caused by Climate Change, Environment Degradation and Unplanned Growth\nMany Missing and Major Flood Fears as Huge Landslide Kills 12 in Nepal\nPapua New Guinea Hit by Strong 7.3 \\'Ring of Fire\\' Earthquake\nSolomon Islands Flooding: How to Donate to Unfolding Crisis",

In 2015 the forecast is for 2.4% growth.\nA strengthening economic recovery has led the Bank of England to think about when it will raise interest rates.\nThe base rate has been at its all-time-low of 0.5% since 2009 as part of an ultra-loose monetary policy environment to keep the cost of credit cheap and banks lending to businesses and consumers.\nThis is to support the economic recovery by ensuring there is enough money around for people to spend and businesses to invest in expansion and hiring staff, supporting the economic recovery.\nMark Carney, the Bank of England governor, implied a base rate increase could come before the end of the 2014.\nBut he and other policymakers have repeatedly said any increase would be gradual to fend off the threat of an interest rates shock.\nUK Manufacturing: Job Creation Hits Three-Year High Amid Economic Recovery\nUK Economy Hits Pre-Financial Crisis Peak as Recovery Marches Forward",

        "raw_content": "WWDC 2016: What we're here to see!\nWWDC 2016 is almost upon us, and we're getting excited!\nIt's that time of year: Some of us are about to board airplanes, others are frantically packing last-minute supplies, and others still are lounging about in Sacramento until they have to drive in. (Hi, Lory.) Apple kicks off its yearly developer conference this Monday, June 13, at 10am PT and we'll be here. You can follow our journey via the social accounts below, and read on for what we're planning!\nWhen are you getting in?\nFriday evening! The conference doesn't start until Monday, but I like having the weekend to get situated to west coast time. (And as a plus, I get to spend time with good California friends, and go to wacky things like cat circuses. What is a cat circus? I'll let you know on Saturday night after I view one.)\nI'm already here! I like to park my deck chair and beach umbrella outside Bill Graham a few days early to, you know, scope out the place! Kidding \u2014 I'm in SF for something else, which gives me a nice weekend to mentally prepare for Dub Dub. But now that Apple has pre-announced its App Store enhancements, I doubt there's much else to talk about, so I guess I'll be heading home.\nSince I live about 90 miles from San Francisco, it's like I'm always there. I just have to hop in my car and drive into the city. I will, however, be staying in downtown San Francisco Sunday night because traffic is a nightmare during rush hour. Without exaggerating, it would probably take me four hours to go 90 miles on Monday morning. In fact, I made that drive during rush hour last week and it took 3.5 hours.\nSunday, Sunday! Last to arrive, first to leave \u2014 so it goes for the non-blessed. By non-blessed I mean I won't be at the actual keynote, but I'll be tuning in close by!\nSaturday. I'm always terrified that something will go wrong with my flight, and I'll be stuck somewhere and miss the keynote, so I try to fly in a day early. It's normally more likely in the winter with freezing rain, when I've been stuck in Montreal, or turned around before reaching Toronto, or stuck at Toronto for the better part of a day. But I take no chances!\nI'm up early on Monday to cover the WWDC keynote with Rene and Bader, maybe do a little podcasting action with the folks at Relay, then visit with as many developers and SF-area engineering friends as I can! I'll also be volunteering at Layers on Tuesday and Wednesday: The design conference was my favorite non-WWDC hangout last year, and it's chock-full of wonderful talks and people. And snacks. Oh, the snacks.\nVisiting San Francisco is always a treat, and I try to make the most of it whenever I can. During Dub Dub, that means talking to as many developers as possible, preferably over libations, and learning from my colleagues, whom I rarely get to see in person. Should be great fun!\nMonday will be all about the Keynote, iMore Show podcast, State of the Union, and other WWDC stuff. I'm excited about the iMore/Loop Beard Bash Monday night. It will be great to mingle and meet new people. But really, I'm just there for the party snacks. I am a veritable WWDC noob and have no idea what else to expect for the rest of the week. I'll get to sit in on John Gruber's Talk Show Live, which promises to be very exciting. But really, I'm just there for the snacks. I also have loose plans to meet with friends that live in the Bay for lunch. Everything else is up in the air. I'm ready to embrace all that is WWDC and its outlying events with open arms and an open heart. But, snacks mostly.\nSo, so much! I'm only in town until Wednesday (and I have to be at the airport pretty early on Wednesday), so you'd better believe I'm going to make the most of my first visit to WWDC! Monday we'll be tuning in for the Keynote and podcasting afterward. There's also RelayCon and the Beard Bash on Monday. I'll be doing a live show with Christina Warren and Brianna Wu on Tuesday at AltConf and sneaking in some libations and celebrations with colleagues and new friends throughout. I hope to see and meet some of you there!\nI'm in full-on WWDC mode. I'll be covering the keynote with Ren and Bader on Monday Morning, trying to cram a podcast in with the whole team right after, then hitting State of the Union, the Apple Design Awards, and the iMore/Beard Bash until the wee hours. The rest of the week will be covering sessions, likely watching them multiple times each so I can start writing up all the \"Explained\" I'm compelled to write each year.\nHow will you be enjoying the keynote?\nWWDC was the first event I ever got invited to as a member of the press, so it always holds a special place in my heart: I've covered many conferences and keynotes, but I still love the magic that comes along with thousands of excited developers crammed into a room waiting to hear how the company is going to change their lives (hopefully for the better).\nFeverishly trying to get the best photo of Craig Federighi's luscious hair from every angle. And perhaps some photos of new software announcements.\nI'm honored to be able to crash the Relay FM remote watching party with my cohort Mikah. I've never met any of these awesome, intelligent, and funny people in real life (including Mikah), but I feel like I know them already. I hope they don't mind if I bring my flask of Jameson. Don't worry, I'll share.\nLory and I are going to be the rowdy bunch at the Relay FM remote watch party. I was already excited to meet her for the first time, but now there's going to be a flask of Jameson. This meetup is about to be OFF THE CHAIN! (I never say off the chain. Who am I?)\nIt's funny, I can't enjoy a keynote when I'm covering it. I can barely even watch it. I need to get into a state where whatever is said is transmitted through my brain, out my fingers, and into the liveblog with as little interference as possible. I'll need to watch it later to enjoy it. Likely several times.\nWhat are you most excited to see this week?\nAside from Eddy's new colorful shirt? I can't wait to see what the company has in store for watchOS and the iPad Pro. After a year with both watchOS and the iPad Pro, Apple likely has some pretty solid data on how both devices are being used, and I'm hoping that translates to smarter design for the watch and more power features for the iPad.\nI'm increasingly looking forward to seeing what the company has in store for OS X. Mac's OS has been riding a wave of incrementalism over the past three years \u2014 Mavericks, Yosemite, and El Capitan \u2014 and I'm ready to see some bigger changes. The aforementioned improvements to the Mac App Store will go a long way, but that and Siri, which is sure to arrive on the Mac in some form, will not satiate me.\nI'm also terribly excited for watchOS 3, which should prove to be a fun little update to a fun little product.\nEverything. Every year, Apple blows my mind with something new and exciting. This year will focus on software, and I'm looking forward to the milestone update of iOS 10. I'm also hoping for something big with tvOS. It is still in its infancy and could use a lot of brain-exploding new features. Updates to the Mac software is always a pleasant addition, but learning new stuff can affect my productivity. So, while I'm hoping for some big new features, I'm also hoping we don't get socked in the face with too many major changes all at once. As for watchOS 3.0, I just want them to tell me it will run faster.\nAll. The. Things! I've got a watch on my wrist that's begging to be loaded with beta software, an iPhone that's thirsty for risk, and an iPad that's getting tired of the current way of things. My Mac, however, will not be tasting the beta life. I love it and need it too much to expose it to beta software.\nOther than the obvious, I'm really excited to see what it's like being in the city where it happens.\nWhat's next. Not in a cliched sense, but after redesigns and re-architectures, launches and relaunches, we now have iOS, macOS, watchOS, and tvOS, all in public, all for the first time. It'll still take some time to stabilize, polish up, and round out, but it feels like we're now in place where Apple can start pushing out the next phase of its software vision.\nTechnology aside, I'm also interested in seeing how Apple balances the keynote. There are those that feel the traditional Steve Jobs-style keynote is still best and any deviation from it is less than ideal. Others feel time has changed and Apple needs to change with it. Everything from SNL-style opening skits to dad jokes to Jimmy and Drake on stage are examples of that clash. Yet it feels like there's a unified approach, somewhere in the middle, that Apple could ride forward.\nI'm hoping we see that this year.\nWhat are you dreading?\nThe inevitable post-WWDC hangover/sickness on Thursday when I fly home. (Also, that I have to immediately drive to Philadelphia after getting off a plane. But it's for roller derby camp, so not all bad.)\nHaving to go home just a day after the keynote, and the FOMO that comes with missing all the awesome WWDC festivities. Blame the weak Canadian Dollar, and a longing for my own bed.\nAccidentally getting too drunk at the Beard Bash and making a fool of myself, and then having Mikah Snapchat it. I'd be mortified.\nTravel. Travel stresses me out, I get really anxious and become hyper-aware of everyone sneezing and coughing around me. I'm an anxious human. Can't help it.\nI'm also dreading Lory catching me Snapchatting her Beard Bash antics. Something tells me she has a strong kick.\nThe pace! WWDC is non-stop from beginning to end. It's a blast, don't get me wrong, but trying to keep up with everything is almost impossible.\nAlso the internet getting vandalized by same-day hot takes that are really not takes, and think pieces with little thought. But that's the cost of silly Apple headlines getting clicks.\nWhat non-WWDC event are you most looking forward to?\nThere are a lot this year \u2014 so many that Apple itself is advertising them! RelayCon on Monday will be great fun, as will the combination iMore/Beard Bash party later that evening; in the daytime, Tuesday and Wednesday is all about Layers, with the evenings reserved for seeing old friends at various gatherings. I am especially looking forward to John Gruber's live Talk Show, and whomever he tricks into appearing on the stage this year. (And hey, now that I have an iPad Pro, I've got a pretty good rig for liveblogging and transcription on the go.)\nI'm also looking forward to having the entire core iMore crew (minus the two Gs, Georgia and Gartenberg) in the same room for the FIRST TIME EVER. And I've never met Mikah in person yet; I expect to be Snapchat-tortured and face-swapped. Oh dear.\nThis is my first WWDC with the iMore team, so I'm excited about introductions to, and conversations with, new friends. Beard Bash should be a blast, so at the very least, I'll raise a Heineken to everyone who worked so hard to make it happen.\nI'm most excited about spending some non-work time with the iMore team. Most of us are somewhat new to the crew and, since none of us live anywhere near each other, we only communicate via the internet. I've only seen Rene, Serenity, and Bader in real life on two occasions and I've never met Mikah in person. I'm sad that I still won't get to meet Georgia or Michael, but hopefully, that won't be for too much longer.\nCan I say all of them? Oh, looks like Rene did. ALL OF THEM! I know this is an extremely privileged thing to say, but I'm just looking forward to having a bunch of fun hanging out with my colleagues and friends in a tech-loving environment. These are my people.\nAll of them! From Layers to Alt, from parties like the Beard Bash we're co-throwing with Jim Dalrymple to the Talk Show Live, there's more than ever going on around WWDC this year.\nIt literally sucks that I have to work all week. I'm super-jealous of those that get to attend.\nWhat are your must-eat places in San Francisco?\nI've been dreaming about Specialty's freshly-made oatmeal chocolate chip cookies, so I guess I have to go get one. Around Moscone, my secret favorite place is the Westfield Mall food court: They have a ton of delicious, high-quality food that's way under above-ground SF prices.\nI also may have to get pizza at Zero Zero, since I've done it at every WWDC I've been to.\nMy favorite little spot is Naked Lunch, an awesome lunch spot with a great patio on Broadway near Columbus. It's a little out of the way, but being in such close proximity to the beautiful Telegraph Hill, with its gorgeous cross-city vistas, makes it worth the trek. Uphill. Both ways.\nThere is this little Mexican food restaurant in the Mission that I love going to called Taqueria Vallarta. They make the best tacos! It is also right up the street from one of my favorite record shops in San Francisco, Thrillhouse Records. There is this awesome crepe place in Japantown called Belly Good Cafe & Crepes. When you get a sweet crepe with a scoop of gelato, they decorate it to look like an adorable little monster.\nI lived in California growing up, but we never visited San Francisco! I have no idea what food places are must-eat. I do know I'm hunting down delicious macarons (no, not macaroons) and I'm definitely hanging out with Rene at Blue Bottle. Outside of that, who knows?\nBlue Bottle for coffee, but really there's an embarrassment of riches around WWDC. You can find everything from great tea at Yerba Buena to great Mexican, Indian, and Bistro down the alley, to top-flight food of every type in the restaurants surrounding Moscone. And then there's the rest of San Francisco...\nAny advice for first-timers at WWDC?\nHave fun, talk to as many people as your brain will allow (but don't forget to take breaks). Remember it's okay to be by yourself and breathe, and though the FOMO is real, it's not worth stressing over. See who (and what) you can, and enjoy San Francisco's strange pseudo-winter June weather!\nEveryone knows each other, and you know no one. That's OK, because they were all like that, too. Inside, even the cool kids want to meet you; they just don't know it yet. It often seems like the Apple community is one big club to which you'll never know the right password. But the reality is that most people are pretty darn nice, and just take a bit of warming up \u2014 much like the pseudo-winter June weather in San Francisco. (Last phrase credit: Serenity Caldwell)\nSince I am a first-timer to WWDC, I'll take any advice you can give me.\nreads everyone else's answers because he is a first-timer\nPick your shots. It's impossible to do everything. If you're attending WWDC, get to all the labs and ask all the questions you need to. The sessions are recorded and you can watch them on-demand. Getting to talk to the engineers who work on the frameworks, and getting help with your specific problems, is worth more than the price of the ticket \u2014 it's invaluable.\nIf you're not attending, then still pick your shots. There are so many parties and bars and surrounding events you can't make it to all of them, and you can seriously hurt yourself trying. Don't miss a day or more because you took yourself out on the first night. Think marathon, not sprint, and many things in moderation, not obliterating excess once.\nBottom line: Your top three predictions for WWDC 2016.\nwatchOS 3 will make my Apple Watch Sport feel new again. Eddy will wear a colorful shirt and/or a Warriors jersey (that yellow is pretty colorful!) during the keynote. And I will end up bricking one of my devices with a beta before the end of the week.\nThe keynote will be overwhelming, in a good way. Apple Music will get its much-needed visual overhaul. And macOS will remind us how a minor rebranding can do a lot to re-energize a user base.\nApple will announce new features coming in iOS, watchOS, and tvOS. They will also officially reveal that they are renaming OS X to macOS. An indie game developer will get to show off their super cool, amazing game on the upcoming iOS 10 platform and we'll all go wild about it over the next few months. A band that I know very little, if anything at all, about will play at the very end of the Keynote.\nNo hardware will be announced, Jony Ive won't physically walk across the WWDC keynote stage, and Rene will buy another Apple Watch band.\nOur devices will become smarter again and even more secure. We'll be given more control and more options. Much medium-hanging fruit will be addressed, but not all of it. We'll love some of the new features immediately but others we'll come to appreciate down the road.\nAnd we'll have a lot to talk about between Monday and the fall.",

        "title": "Could Nearly Half of U.S. Small Businesses Not Have Websites? | Inc.com",
        "raw_content": "Could Nearly Half of U.S. Small Businesses Not Have Websites?\nSurprising lack of small businesses online represents a challenge and an opportunity for business owners.\nIn this modern age, it often seems like everyone and every business has a website. You can hardly go two feet without seeing a URL for something. But looks can be deceiving. While it's true that most larger businesses have a website, web presence is something their small business counterparts are lagging behind in. A recent study found that nearly half of small businesses in the U.S. don't have a website.\nThe B2B research firm Clutch did a survey of over 350 small business owners and managers and found that many were lacking what many would consider to be a staple of modern business. The professionals surveyed by Clutch came from companies around the U.S. that had fewer than 10 employees and generated less than $1 million in annual revenue. From this group of respondents, four out of nine (46 percent) reported not having a website.\nMany of these B2B business owners and managers felt that a website wasn't relevant to their company. In fact, about 12 percent of the people surveyed thought they would have no need for a website in the near future. This may turn out to be a costly error. As was discussed in a previous article, data suggests that online services will dramatically change the landscape of B2B marketing in just a few years.\n\"It's still surprising that so many businesses don't have a website. This ignores the fact that most Americans are on the web, looking them up,\" says Rehan Fernando, CEO at EIGHT25MEDIA in a statement about the research. \"Studies have shown that over 70-80% of people will research a company on the web before making a purchase decision, usually by visiting its website. Even having a one page website can establish credibility. It shows that the business is actually real and has taken the time to put out a presentation.\"\nThe fact that a surprisingly large number of small businesses don't have websites has different implications depending on what side of the fence you're on. For business owners who are already online, this is arguably a good thing. This research shows there's still time to press the advantage they get from being online before their competitors.\nAs the quote above explained, there are a lot of benefits from having a website, such as improved brand awareness, increased brand visibility and faster customer service. Since we're still at a point where half of small businesses have this feature and the other half doesn't, being online can be a defining factor for consumers searching for service provider.\nFor the businesses that don't have websites, this research can be both a comfort and a warning. While it's definitely preferable to have a website, there are a lot of businesses that have managed to succeed in the modern era without one.\nSo while it's unlikely that not having a website will kill your small business in the next 24 hours, it's clear that small businesses without websites are a shrinking minority. It is estimated that the number of small businesses without websites will shrink to 27 percent in just a couple of years.\nMore importantly, not having a site puts small businesses at a disadvantage when it comes to attracting new customers, providing more efficient service and responding to consumer needs. Small business owners will finding it increasingly harder to make an impact and to prevent market share erosion without some sort of online presence and internet marketing strategy.\nThe best news for small business owners who have waited to get a website is that it's cheaper than ever to get a high-quality website built for your organization. And with so many benefits to owning a website, the money spent is a more enduring investment with a greater return.\nFor more information on the benefits of owning a website, read this article with some more data on how websites helps small business owners.",

Or as Gough put it: \"Your perfect story is 50 pages long \u2013 or 70 or 100? Good luck getting that printed anywhere.\"\nWell, Colm T\u00f3ib\u00edn succeeded with The Testament of Mary, but he's the exception to the general rule that traditional publishers like novellas even less than they like short stories. But writers, Gough insists, do like them and he cites Kindle Singles currently being written by Amy Tan, Chuck Palahniuk and Margaret Atwood \u2013 the latter's erotic science fiction novel to be issued in a series of Singles.\nAnd among recent Singles are Niall Ferguson's Always Right, which is a short biography of Margaret Thatcher; and Stephen King's essay Guns which, at 8,000 words, was considered too long for publication in magazines and newspapers but which immediately found a home on Kindle.\nGough favours the encouragement of such shorter works of literature (he calls them \"bookeens\") and I do, too, whether they be long, short stories (Joyce's The Dead would have made an ideal Single), novellas (Tolstoy's great Hadji Murad or Maeve Brennan's The Visitor) or discursive essays in the manner of George Orwell, Ian Hamilton or Joan Didion.\nShort, in other words, is good, especially in a world where you're confronted by 800-page novels, biographies and histories and you wonder how many of them warrant the time and effort you're being asked to expend on them.\nOh, and writers of such digital miniatures get a bigger share of the profits, too, which should give them further reason to demonstrate that less can be more.",

We\u2019re betting they aren\u2019t on your radar, but they should be. They have a staunch commitment to community health, but they won\u2019t take over when a hospital can\u2019t, or won\u2019t, run a particular program. They tell you that right on their About Us page. We like that.\nWe also like that they\u2019re proactive, and principled, and that they just made $1.28 million in mental health grants, going primarily to serve the mental health needs of adolescents.\nFor the uninitiated, MetroWest is a cluster of 25 communities just outside the beltway and southwest of Boston. The MetroWest Health Foundation (MWHF) has three dedicated grantmaking programs\u2014access to care, adolescent health, and healthy aging\u2014as well as a Health Leadership Program and Evaluation Institute, both of which aim to provide nonprofit organizations with the skills they need to attract and retain good leadership, and to self-assess and conduct performance reviews.\nThis latest round of mental health grants came out of MWHF\u2019s Adolescent Health program, and, taking an in-depth look, it\u2019s a really interesting mix of gifts to groups around the MetroWest area.\nFour area schools are receiving $831,000 over three years to implement a version of the Brookline Resilient Youth Team\u2014a successful school healthcare program that facilitates communication between youth, parents, teachers, and mental health clinicians. Three additional schools are getting $182,000 for one year to strengthen their mental health interventions.\nBut a look at the community organizations receiving grants reveals the real interest: MWHF is all over the map, and they\u2019ve done their homework. There\u2019s jail diversion. There\u2019s substance abuse prevention. There\u2019s $20,000 for a teen pregnancy prevention program tailored to boys. It\u2019s pretty outside-the-box stuff, even for a progressive state.\nI guess this kind of giving would be more unusual coming from Florida or Utah, but even so, we feel it\u2019s worth keeping up with the MetroWest Health Foundation, especially if you travel in mental health grantmaking circles. They may turn out to be a real trendsetter for shaping state funding of mental health initiatives for adolescents.\nJune 10, 2014 / Kristina Strain/\nWhat Grantseekers Need to Know ...\nThe Basics on the Cummings ...",

        "raw_content": "Home News Brief Rastrojos Leaders Negotiating With US: Colombia Govt\nRastrojos Leaders Negotiating With US: Colombia Govt\nColombian President Juan Manuel Santos confirmed rumors that the leaders of the Rastrojos drug gang are negotiating their surrender with the US.\nSantos declared that the leaders, brothers Luis Enrique and Javier Antonio Calle Serna, were negotiating as a result of the continued pressure being exerted on their Rastrojos group by Colombian authorities.\nCommenting on Colombia\u2019s collaboration with US authorities, he added, \u201cwhen we work together and we work against transnational crime, the results are faster and more efficient,\u201d reported El Tiempo.\nSantos confirmed that the Rastrojo leaders are in talks with the US after former paramilitary warlord Hector Buitrago, alias \u201cMartin Llanos,\u201d was arrested in Venezuela.\nRumors of the Calle Sernas\u2019 dealings with US authorities first surfaced in August last year when Colombian daily El Pais reported that Javier Antonio was negotiating his surrender following a June 2011 indictment by the Eastern District of New York on drug trafficking charges.\nA move such as this by a high-profile drug trafficker is not unprecedented. Colombia\u2019s most notorious trafficker, Daniel Barrera Barrera, alias \u201cEl Loco,\u201d and the now-captured Maximiliano Bonilla, alias \u201cValenciano,\u201d both apparently began negotiations with the US, only to break them off later.\nThe decision to start negotiating with US justice is one sign of an organization under pressure. Once a drug trafficker\u2019s activities have grown to such a point that a US extradition order is issued, it becomes very difficult to operate with the same levels of impunity, as InSight has previously noted.\nIn the case of the Calle Sernas, however, it is a case of time as to whether their offer of submission is sincere. As evidenced by Barrera and Bonilla, should the terms offered to them not be favorable, they will simply walk away and continue to run their organization. Furthermore, the Rastrojos are currently locked in a fierce battle with the rival Urabe\u00f1os gang. Last year the Urabe\u00f1os began making inroads into the Rastrojos\u2019 home turf of Cali, and have had successes in strengthening control of highly-prized trafficking routes out of Medellin to the Caribbean coast. If the Calle Sernas were to remove themselves from the picture, it could potentially weaken the Rastrojos to the point of insignificance and see them overrun by the Urabe\u00f1os.",

        "title": "Member of the Week - Converged Communication Solutions \u00b7 The Inverness Chamber of Commerce",
        "raw_content": "Member of the Week - Converged Communication Solutions\nConverged Communication Solutions was started in 2005 by Neil Christie, a hands-on techie in every sense of the word, who is still at the helm of the company today. It was set up with the goal of providing a single point of contact that can take care of the telephony, Internet and IT support needs of a company, and that aim remains at the core of the business today. By supplying these services under one banner Converged sought to reduce the number of suppliers a customer would need and eliminate any grey areas that otherwise existed between a customer\u2019s IT support, Internet provider and BT/Openreach. Neil is passionate about making sure technology works for a client\u2019s business, and that passion and attention to customer service has led to positive annual growth for the business.\nConverged Communication Solutions now employs 25 staff across the north-east and Highlands, covering Dundee to Inverness, with the majority of our team based at their head office in Aberdeen.\nWe spoke to Steve Smith, Business Development Manager for Converged Communications who told us about his role: \u201cI joined Converged earlier this year, but it\u2019s a business I\u2019ve known since its inception and have followed closely. I have around 20 years\u2019 experience in IT, including owning my own business and working within both the SME space and at the other end of the spectrum for huge multinationals including Xerox and Apple.\nMy role at Converged is to grow the commercial side of the business, concentrating on building a strong business development team, delivering marketing that fits with our brand and providing personal development plans for each team member.\u201d\nSteve told Inverness Chamber why Converged would like to feature as member of the week: \u201cConverged has worked with businesses in the Highlands and Islands for a number of years and having employed home based staff in Inverness for some time, recently opened an office in the city. Getting online and staying online are crucial in all aspects of business today and a resilient Internet connection is fundamental. The reliance that businesses now place on Internet connectivity means that they should view it as a utility, the same way we treat electricity, gas and telephones. To do that businesses need to be aware of the connectivity options available to them and that is where we can help. We can work with them to select the most suitable and cost-effective Internet connectivity and telephony options for the size and location of their business, backed up by fast and efficient IT support and stringent IT security strategies.\nConverged is here to help local businesses of all sizes to flourish, which in turn can benefit the wider economy.\u201d\nProviding an integrated and cost-effective Internet connectivity, telephone and IT support service is at the heart of what Converged does. Every business, regardless of size and location, is reliant on an Internet connection as a result of the digitisation of our economy. Fast and resilient Internet connections are a priority for businesses \u2013 from accommodation providers across the Highlands to life science and energy companies in Inverness \u2013 and they are passionate about delivering that for customers, coupled with good customer service.\nA robust Internet connection can deliver many benefits for businesses and also open up a raft of data and telephony hosting options that can bring additional advantages. There are many connectivity options available \u2013 from high-speed broadband to wireless and mobile \u2013 and it is about finding the one that best fits the current and future needs of a business. Improving connectivity for businesses in more rural locations is something that they are particularly keen to do \u2013 Scotland\u2019s landscape can bring challenges, something their technical team always like to try and overcome.\nWith data compliance high on people\u2019s agendas and big brand hacks or data breaches making headlines, Converged have recently enhanced their cyber security service. The service is now headed up by two cyber security experts who aim to simplify, guide and ultimately achieve data compliance for small businesses.\nCyber security is an increasingly important matter for every business and their employees, and their service is designed to ensure customers are better protected in the face of what is an increasing global threat. The investment Converged have made in developing this service means that they can deliver a fully integrated offering to customers.\nSteve shared with us Converged\u2019s business plans over the next 12 months: \u201cConverged has consistently grown year-on-year, a trend we hope to continue. During this year we have appointed a number of new staff and also established our Inverness office, both of which will support our growth going forward. Setting up an office in the Highland capital was part of a six-figure investment we have made in Inverness, which included unbundling Openreach telephone exchanges in the city. This is a process that allows Converged to place its own equipment in exchanges and then provide flexible and more competitively priced Internet connections directly to business customers.\nAs a tech company, along with growing our business and investing in developing our skilled team, we must keep abreast of advances in technology that can benefit the services we deliver to customers or help them to overcome challenges they face and enable them to operate more efficiently. For example, mobile and wireless technologies can, in some cases, solve the connectivity challenges posed by the geography and topography of a local area. It is these types of developments we must be aware of in order to support firms in rural locations.\u201d\nWe asked Steve what he values most about his Inverness Chamber membership: \u201cInverness Chamber is the pulse of the business community and our membership provides access to its unrivalled local network. We have become frequent attendees of Chamber events, which are always extremely well organised, and we never fail to walk away without having made new business connections. The Chamber is a pleasure to deal with and undoubtedly have the best interests of its membership as its priority.\u201d\nSteve shared his top-tip for helping other Chamber members maximise their membership: \u201cAttend as many networking events as possible. In this age of social media, meeting people face-to-face is still the most effective way to grow your network and your business. As we say at Converged, it all starts with a connection.\u201d\nTwitter: @Convergedcomms\nFacebook: @ConvergedComms\nLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/converged-communication-solutions-ltd\nWebsite: www.converged.co.uk",

        "raw_content": "Governance: Big friendly giants\nIndex providers are eager to show their governance processes are robust and transparent\nIndex providers\u2019 decisions affect trillions of assets\nGovernance is increasingly discussed as a result\nProviders show awareness of their influence\nGovernance processes ensure the quality of index methodologies and manage or avoid conflicts of interests\nThe addition of China A-shares to MSCI\u2019s emerging market and global equity indices, scheduled for June 2018, is one of the most anticipated market events of the past decade. It is not a game-changer in terms of asset flows into China, but it raises questions about the growing influence of index providers.\nIndices calculated and disseminated by providers such as MSCI, S&P Dow Jones Indices (S&P DJI) and FTSE Russell, along with smaller players, are the basis for trillions of euros of passive investment globally. The providers\u2019 decisions about the inclusion or the exclusion of stocks have a sizeable impact on countless institutional and retail portfolios. At the same time, such decisions can impact on the index providers\u2019 business performance.\nGiven the growth of passive investing, index governance will become a topic that is increasingly debated. Investors will want to ascertain that the methodologies used to calculate indices are robust and transparent. They will want to be involved in conversations about such methodologies, while demanding that index providers are independent in their decision making. Pressure on providers to offer competitive pricing for index licensing will likely grow.\nIndex providers recognise that governance assumes greater significance as passive investment grows. Christopher Woods, head of policy and governance at FTSE Russell, says: \u201cGood governance is good business practice. It would be necessary even without the huge growth of passive investing. But, the rising number of indices and the growth of assets tracking these indices certainly emphasises the importance of index good governance.\u201d\nFurther benchmark regulation\nAn increased focus on governance is a direct result of the European Benchmark Regulation, which took effect in January.\nThis is a response to the 2012 Libor scandal and allegations that other benchmarks in the forex, commodity and energy sectors have been manipulated. It has prompted FTSE Russell to review its governance arrangement to ensure they comply, according to Woods.\nFTSE Russell\u2019s governance is based on the well-known three lines of defence framework used in risk management.\nThe Product Governance Board \u2013 which constitutes the first line of defence \u2013 makes decisions on changes to existing index methodologies or creation of new ones. Decisions are informed by reports from internal and external advisory committees. Internal committees have to ensure that changes to methodologies or new ones can be managed with the resources available. External committees make sure that such changes are supported by clients and stakeholders.\nThe second line of defence is represented by the risk and compliance functions, which are part of a larger Oversight Committee. \u201cThe Oversight Committee\u2019s duty is to check and challenge the first line\u2019s decisions,\u201d says Woods. \u201cIt is also a duty of the second line body to report on any suspicious behaviour with respect to benchmarks, perhaps coming from those contributing data to benchmarks. Furthermore, the committee deals with complaints from clients or other stakeholders.\u201d\nThe audit function of the oversight committee represents the third line of defence.\nAt MSCI, four committees provide overall oversight and governance for the company\u2019s indices. Governance of indices is handled by a Risk and Regulatory Committee, an Index Policy Committee and an Equity Index Committee. The latter makes decisions on changes to methodologies and the creation of new ones, as well as maintaining the indices. \u201cAll of the committees are staffed solely by MSCI group company employees with extensive relevant experience. MSCI believes that its editorial and operational independence is critical to its objectivity, efficiency and avoiding conflicts of interest,\u201d says MSCI\u2019s website. The existence of several, separate committees guarantees independence of intellectual work and decision making.\n\u201cThe decisions on inclusion and exclusion and weight changes are truly rules-based. We do not use any discretion\u201d\nPavlo Taranenko\nSimilarly, S&P DJI\u2019s Index Committees serve as the index governance body within the company and oversee the design, maintenance, and publication of the company\u2019s indices. \u201cAll Index Committee members must meet specified core competency, tenure, and experience requirements,\u201d according to a S&P DJI spokesperson.\nIndex providers strive to show that their index governance processes are of the highest quality. Pavlo Taranenko, executive director for index research at MSCI, says: \u201cThe decisions on inclusion and exclusion and weight changes are truly rules-based. We do not use any discretion whatsoever. We have a very thorough process for the development of methodologies and regular review of methodologies.\u201d\nAmong the objectives of MSCI\u2019s index governance processes, says Taranenko, is to reflect the most up-to-date views of market participants on a given market. \u201cFor the China A-shares reclassification, we had a huge numbers of meetings and interactions with various market participants to understand their thoughts,\u201d he says. But, the ultimate challenge is to take into account all the factors that come into play, including market accessibility for foreign institutional investors.\n\u201cIt is about identifying all the necessary details and balancing between being sufficiently proactive and reflect the opportunity set properly, and at the same time including in the index something that is accessible to the foreign investor, so that indices are replicable. That is the general philosophy,\u201d Taranenko says.\nNaturally, users of indices and other stakeholders are involved in the launch of new indices or changes to existing ones. However, as Taranenko points out, providers like to take ownership of methodologies. \u201cEven when we take inputs from market participants who express initial interest or ideas in a new methodology, in the end it really become an MSCI methodology, because we put a lot of intellectual work into making sure that the specific methodology really works. We are happy to stand by the results,\u201d says Taranenko.\nRobust governance is necessary not just to ensure the intellectual quality of an index provider\u2019s work. It also serves to identify and manage conflicts of interest arising from providing indices. Although the kind of equity indices provided by the three major players were not involved in the recent benchmark-related scandals and allegations, the potential is there.\nFTSE Russell\u2019s Woods says: \u201cAnything we do has to be cognisant of the conflicts of interest it may present. That includes our ownership structure. Since we are part of an exchange group, we have to recognise and manage the potential conflicts this creates. There may also be conflicts between desires of constituent companies in indices versus the desires of the users of those indices or of other stakeholders such as investment consultants. It is absolutely essential that we recognise and manage those conflicts.\u201d\nIndex providers maintain that commercial matters are kept strictly separate from index management decisions. The S&P DJI spokesperson says: \u201cAll S&P DJI employees on the commercial side of the business have neither access nor influence on the index committees\u2019 decision making. S&P DJI adheres to the IOSCO [International Organization of Securities Commissions] Principles and has done so since its inception, publishing our Management Statement of Adherence since 2014. We have had practices, policies and procedures that address many of the standards set forth in the IOSCO Principles, including by way of example, the separation of our commercial and governance functions as well as methodology transparency, long before the IOSCO Principles were published.\u201d\nMSCI\u2019s Taranenko says: \u201cThere is a \u2018Chinese wall\u2019 structure within the company. Information on index methodology changes is shared on a need-to-know basis even within the Chinese wall. People outside the Chinese wall have no access to price-sensitive information. Confidentiality is critical because decisions are potentially sensitive and have a significant impact. Until announcements are made public, only a limited group of people who are involved in a given decision are aware of it. Decisions have to be made public at the same time for everyone.\u201d\nFTSE Russell\u2019s Woods adds: \u201cThe entire governance process and arrangements we have in place are there to address the potential conflicts of interest and to ensure that all decisions are taken equitably, with the interest of clients\u2019 indexes and other stakeholders in mind.\u201d\nThe need for confidentiality on decision processes is not up for debate. Generally, investors seem content with the insight they get on methodologies and decisions concerning methodology changes. The European Benchmark Regulation, in theory, ensures standards of transparency on index methodologies. However, there are questions on whether index providers effectively have undue control over market participants\u2019 investment behaviour.\nIt is a complicated issue, linked to a debate on the role of benchmarks in active as well as passive investment. As Woods points out: \u201cOn one level, it is true that index providers are making investment decisions on behalf of passive investors. When it comes to inclusion of new stocks or exclusion of existing ones, we are indeed making important decisions. But, it should not be construed that we are taking control of strategies. We are largely responding to client demands when we create new strategies.\n\u201cBeyond everything, the index is either reflecting price movements in the market or an investment strategy that clients were already pursuing. As such, decisions are driven by clients\u2019 needs, rather than any view that we might have as to what might or might not produce investment returns.\u201d\nWoods concludes: \u201cWe have to answer these questions. Indices grow in size and number, and indexation does have an effect on the market. That is why good governance is essential.\u201d\nA new breed of index provider to challenge encumbents\nDespite recording outstanding revenues last year, index providers are not known to be under pressure to reduce fees. Investors target asset management fees, including those charged by exchange-traded funds (ETFs), rather than index licensing fees, which are paid by managers. That is not to say that there is no competition among providers. The barriers to entry in the sector are high, but the three giants \u2013 S&P Dow Jones Indices, MSCI and FTSE Russell \u2013 are facing challenges.\nAlthough the stature of the three brands is unrivalled, smaller providers can gain market share by competing on fees. One way is to charge fixed fees rather than ad valorem ones. Solactive, a 10-year-old, Frankfurt-based index provider, has risen to prominence thanks to this strategy.\nYet the company offers more than just a fixed fee alternative, says Steffen Scheuble, its CEO. Its strategic focus is on IT infrastructure, which allows Solactive to automate index management functions and empowering clients. Scheuble explains: \u201cThere is a standard way to adjust indices for cash dividends. Traditional index providers tend to use a single way. At Solactive, we have automated the many possible different ways to adjust for dividends. All the adjustments are carried out automatically by our IT systems.\u201d This is possible because of strong IT investment, of which Solactive pursues a higher ratio compared with other providers.\n\u201cIn our philosophy, we believe index businesses can be run in two different ways. One is to focus on building a very strong brand, and charging clients a lot for using that brand. Another way, which is what Solactive does, is to invest heavily in IT and to implement an IT infrastructure that allows us to run an index in a cheaper way. Investment in IT gives us a cost advantage and therefore a competitive advantage\u201d, argues Scheuble. Clearly, Solactive\u2019s operating margin is lower than those of the main providers. But the CEO is confident that by keeping high levels of IT investment, and by spreading its message, Solactive will continue on its growth trajectory.\nSolactive has attracted clients by offering \u2018thematic\u2019 indices, for example one tracking example companies that are active in the big data space. Scheuble adds that in areas such as emerging markets, Solactive\u2019s methodologies produce similar results to more popular indices, despite different methodologies. \u201cOur methodologies are 100% rule-based. We classify some emerging market countries differently, but essentially we achieve the same results\u201d, he says.\nMajor index providers are also facing pressure from their biggest clients. Several ETF providers have begun compiling their own indices, a practice referred to as \u2018self-indexing\u2019. This is an emerging trend that does not pose a threat, but shows that their position is being challenged.\nState Street Global Advisors\u2019 $588bn (\u20ac481bn) SPDR ETF business is among those offering self-indexed ETFs among its US product range. Noel Archard, head of global product at SPDR, says: \u201cSelf-indexing is a tool that we can use judiciously when it makes sense to do so. If a firm believes they can bring a credible benchmark to the marketplace, based on their insight as an asset manager, that expresses a view that might be unique to them, then it might be possible to bring it to market at a more appropriate price point, as something that you wouldn\u2019t necessarily get from a third-party index provider. But we view self-indexing as a tool as opposed to an end state. The client ultimately chooses what benchmark they are running their portfolio against.\u201d\nSelf-indexed ETFs are growing in popularity in the US market, mainly among retail investors, whereas European institutions tend to be more benchmark-focused, according to Archard.\nAlso in: Indices and benchmarks: Let a million more flowers bloom\nCase study: Publica's index wisdom\nFixed income: A different breed",

        "title": "IPSO Blog: Annual Conference of the Independent Press Councils of Europe",
        "raw_content": "AIPCE is a loose association of independent content regulators who discuss topical issues, exchange ideas and offer and receive advice from one another. Their annual meeting is a chance to talk about achievements, challenges and threats to the free press and ethical journalism and is hosted by a different press council in a different European country each year.\nThis year\u2019s conference took place in Helsinki to coincide with the fiftieth anniversary of the Finnish Press Council. And much like the Eurovision Song Contest, not all AIPCE attendees are actually from Europe, so and as well European press councils, representatives from New Zealand and Canada were also in attendance.\nThere is huge variety in the way that different countries carry out press regulation and monitor press standards and ethics, and this is reflected in the make-up of the institutions which carry out this role, although they all share a commitment to operating free from government interference. These differences stem from a number of factors: cultural norms and ideas around what should or should not be reported in the press; traditions and cultures around free speech; as well as more modern legislation and case law.\nOne of the things I found really interesting was learning about the different approaches the press in other parts of Europe take to crime and court reporting. Consumers of news in the UK will be familiar with articles documenting criminal trials, often accompanied by the full name and photograph of a defendant, or an offender if convicted. Court reporting is, generally, considered an important aspect of freedom of the press in the UK and the public\u2019s right to know. So much so, that HM\u2019s Courts and Tribunals Service have just published on their website new media guidance for all court staff in order to facilitate better access for journalists to courts.\nOther countries in Europe take a different approach. Just to give one example, a Finnish journalist explained that it would be rare for an offender to be identified in a newspaper unless they were sentenced to a lengthy term in prison. (By contrast, of course, the US press \u2013 which was not represented at the conference \u2013 reports much more freely on court proceedings than is customary, or even legal, in the UK.)\nThere are many further differences across our various countries\u2019 press and the institutions that oversee them. Certainly the size of each press council and the number of press complaints varies dramatically from country to country. But what underlined the AIPCE conference for me was the fundamental similarities between us.\nEach press regulator and press council hold the belief that regulation of editorial content in the media should be fully independent of government oversight and control.\nWe also have in common the many shared risks and benefits of emerging cutting edge technology: the increasing use of news-generating algorithms; new tools to assist journalists with low-level news-gathering; plus the wider debate around online platform vs. publisher regulatory responsibilities.\nWhich brings us to some of the more concerning aspects of the conference. Several European states have recently introduced (or seek to introduce) legislation which may threaten aspects of the free press through increased government encroachment. It is a reminder that all European states must be vigilant, including us here in the UK.\nFind out more about AIPCE here.",

The Butler Gallery, The Castle, Kilkenny. Until April 29 butlergallery.com ****\nThe Torre Girona is a 19th-century church on the campus of Catalonia\u2019s Polytechnic University. Substantially damaged during, and entirely rebuilt following the Spanish Civil War, it was used as a place of Catholic worship until it was deconsecrated in 1960. More recently, in the current century, from 2005, it has enjoyed a new lease of life, or afterlife, that is strangely, almost poetically appropriate: it houses one of Europe\u2019s most powerful supercomputers, MareNostrum. The black computing stacks are impassively arrayed in the space once occupied by worshippers, sealed within a glass box, to the background strains of religious vocal music. The Torre Girona is now a temple of big data. Among the numbers it has crunched are those relating to simulations of triple helix DNA, astrophysics, geology and weather forecasting. It is this latter employment that drew Irish artist Martina O\u2019Brien to visit MareNostrum. She was exploring the subject of climate data infrastructures with regard to climate change and weather forecasting and modelling. Weather and the forecasting of it have been of vital interest to human beings since forever and, long before the advent of computers, entailed the compilation of data \u2013 the more the better \u2013 by means of monitoring and measuring as an aid to analysis and, insofar as possible, prediction. That ground-level data harvesting is still part and parcel of meteorology and climatology, grist to the supercomputing mill. O\u2019Brien\u2019s two-channel video piece, Loop Topology, alludes to both aspects of the analytical enterprise, collecting the day-by-day numbers and seeing what they say, or hint at. MareNostrum does the math, invisibly but, at the same time, it is famous in the supercomputing world for its aesthetic quality, its elegance and irresistibly metaphorical character as an installation. That a computer can be beautiful certainly comes across in O\u2019Brien\u2019s footage. The other aspect, the daily accumulation of raw data, is represented by footage of one of Met \u00c9ireann\u2019s 423 rainfall stations, the one located at Casement Aerodrome, Dublin, which has been in operation since 1944. By contrast with the sleek, spotless, hallowed domain of the computer centre, the rainfall station has an appropriately weathered, basic, low-tech appearance. O\u2019Brien lights on one feature of rainfall stations and sees it as symptomatic of official attitudes to statistical infrastructure. The precise geographical locations of the rainfall stations are not generally available. They are, in fact, disguised. It could be that such information is viewed as sensitive in one or some of several respects, including security and economics. At Some Distance in the Direction Indicated stems from two artist residencies, one at the Irish Centre for High End Computing in 2016 and the other at Cow House Studios in Co Wexford, 2017. There are, as it happens, cows in the work that emerged from Cow House Studios, dairy cows at the nearby Teagasc research dairy farm at Johnstown Castle Dairy. These are, as you can imagine, closely monitored cows in a closely monitored environment. The very grass they graze and air they breathe are constantly assessed under any number of headings. As if that weren\u2019t enough, they also find themselves inhabiting a Met \u00c9ireann Synoptic Automatic Weather Station. O\u2019Brien\u2019s response to this barrage of surveillance leads her slightly astray, into a diversion on surveillance, in fact. She sends in the drones, giving us a drone\u2019s eye view of the observation equipment at Johnstown and a CCTV live-feed view from a Met \u00c9ireann camera on site.\nFifty-Two Years from Monday, a set of 46 thread drawings, is an abstracted representation of the paths of conjectured storms impacting on Ireland from 2070 to 2099, according to climate modelling projections. Why thread? The allusion is apparently to the 19th-century mathematician Ada Lovelace. Byron\u2019s daughter, Lovelace, though plagued by health problems (she was only 36 when she died), was intellectually formidable. Closely associated with Charles Babbage, she is generally regarded as being the first person to realise that his proposed computational machine could have much wider uses and implications than calculation.\nWhile translating and annotating an Italian treatise on Babbage\u2019s analytical engine(her notes exceeded the length of the treatise), she devised an algorithm that the device might use to calculate a specific sequence of rational numbers \u2013 in other words, a computer programme. She nailed what computers do before they were there, also pointing out a basic truth \u2013 garbage in, garbage out \u2013 immediately. Her insights stemmed in part from her observation of the way mechanical looms were capable of producing the most complex patterns with the use of simple punchcards. O\u2019Brien\u2019s final work, Peripheries, is an elaborate two-channel video projection. Here we get to the nub of what is going on with data gathering and the climate modelling carried out on supercomputers such as MareNostrum. An initial overview of 41 hypothetical storms that models suggest will hit Ireland in the 20-year window from 2040 to 2060 leads on to a closer account of six of those storms. On screens set at right angles, we see the statistical flow of numbers and what the numbers might look like in real life, an ocean of data and actual stormy seas. In the end, the possible storms depend on a number of variables. In a pre-scientific age, O\u2019Brian seems to suggest, we would have looked to an oracle. It\u2019s hardly surprising that, from early on, computers have been identified with oracles and credited with oracular abilities \u2013 as in The Matrix. Now, MareNostrum and its companions really are our oracles.\nThe best visual art shows and exhibitions this week\nKenneth O\u2019Halloran\u2019s modern ruins, Alice Maher\u2019s woodcuts and watercolours: the best art shows this week\nFrank Bowling: An exemplary artist for our time\nArt in focus: David Trimble by Amanda Dunsmore\nVanessa Donoso Lopez\u2019s venture into the epic\nArt in Focus: \u2018Untitled, 2018\u2019 by Jan Pleitner\nFrom linotype to letterpress, the joy of hands-on printing\nA hint of the sublime: the best in this week\u2019s art shows\nRobert Doisneau: the humanist photographer who loved Paris\nArt and architecture: from Dorothy Smith\u2019s drawings to Liliane Lijn\u2019s sharp eye",

        "raw_content": "Two new SUVs roll onto the Irish market\nJeep\u2019s new Wrangler and the high performance Alfa Romeo Stelvio Quadrifoglio land on Irish shores\nThe Alfa Romeo Stelvio Quadrifoglio is, for now, the world\u2019s fastest SUV, or at least the one which has posted the fastest lap of the famed Nurburgring race track\nIf ever there were two vehicles which showed just what a broad and inaccurate phrase \u2018SUV\u2019 is, it\u2019s the Jeep Wrangler and the Alfa Romeo Stelvio Quadrifoglio. Both are, incontrovertibly, SUVs, or 4x4s if you prefer. Both are made by the same company, in the sense that both brands are owned by Fiat-Chrysler Automobiles (FCA).\nThe two could hardly be more different, though\u2026\nThe Alfa Romeo Stelvio Quadrifoglio is, for now, the world\u2019s fastest SUV, or at least the one which has posted the fastest lap of the famed Nurburgring race track. A pointless endeavour? Doubtless, so, but its 7 min 51.7 sec laptime brings it unquestioned bragging rights.\nTo get a two-tonne SUV around the \u2018Ring that quick, Alfa has fitted the Stelvio with the same 510hp twin-turbo V6 engine as found in the Giulia Quadrifoglio saloon. Designed and built on Alfa\u2019s behalf by Ferrari, this bellowing, snorting engine drives all four wheels through an eight-speed automatic gearbox (which can whip through changes in 150-milliseconds) and a rear differential which uses two clutches to be able to apportion power to the rear wheel that needs it most. Power, under normal circumstances, goes entirely to those back wheels, but the Stelvio can shunt as much as 50 per cent up to the front wheels as and when it\u2019s needed.\nAiding and abetting all of that is suspension with adaptive dampers, and the DNA Pro selector, which allows the driver to choose between Dynamic, Natural, and \u2018Adaptive Economy\u2019 modes, as well as a Race mode that\u2019s specific to Quadrifoglio models. There\u2019s an additional Chassis Domain Control unit, a \u2018brain\u2019 that monitors all of these systems, and the stability control, and decides how best to deploy the car\u2019s power.\nHow much? \u20ac118,795 which is a heck of a lot, not least for a brand that has managed to shift a mere 11 Stelvios so far this year. It is, in some senses, a bargain though. Porsche, after all, asks more for the Macan Turbo S Performance model, which has some 70hp less power.\nThe Alfa comes as standard with 20-inch Quadrifoglio alloy wheels with specifically profiled wheel arches, restyled rear diffuser, sports exhaust with four outlets and bi-xenon headlamps with LED daytime running lights, leather dashboard and door tops, leather and Alcantara seats, leather steering wheel, carbon fibre trim and stainless steel pedals, and the 8.8-inch Alfa Connect infotainment system, with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.\nWrangler arrives\nThe Wrangler is hardly recognisable as being from the same species as the Stelvio, let alone the same company. Still showing, proudly, the lineage that stretches all the way back to the original 1941 Willys General Purpose 1/4-Ton Truck, which became the first Jeep, all but the most eagle-eyed Jeep acolytes will probably fail to spot that this actually is the new model (the giveaway is the kink in the slope of the radiator grille, which used to be flat).\nNew Jeep Wrangler: all but the most eagle-eyed Jeep acolytes will probably fail to spot that this actually is the new model (the giveaway is the kink in the slope of the radiator grille, which used to be flat)\nNew it is, though, although it keeps the two-or-four door layout, and once again you can have it with a hard-top roof, a soft-top, a hard-top with removable panels, or from next year an electrically powered soft-top.\nIt\u2019s not only four-wheel drive, it actually gets the choice of two distinct four-wheel drive systems; \u2018Command-Trac\u2019 for Sport and Sahara models, and a more serious off-roading \u2018Rock-Trac\u2019 for Rubicon models, which really are designed to live in the woods, rather than on the road. You can switch both systems between rear-wheel and four-wheel drive, and the Wrangler has more than 250mm of ground clearance, and is able to wade standing water of up to 760mm deep. On Rubicon models, you can even decouple the front anti-roll bar for maximum wheel travel when off-roading.\nThe Wrangler gets new engines this time around, using the same 2.2-litre diesel as the Cherokee (and indeed the Alfa Romeo Stelvio) with 200hp and 450Nm of torque. There\u2019s also the option of a 272hp 2.0-litre turbo four-cylinder petrol engine, and next year that will be joined by a hybrid version. Ireland won\u2019t get the 3.7-litre V6 petrol model that will be on sale in the rest of the world. An eight-speed automatic transmission will be available as an option.\nInside, the Wrangler may still looks basic, but it\u2019s also a lot more sophisticated than it used to be. Basic models get a seven-inch touchscreen, and there\u2019s a bigger 8.4-inch unit for more expensive models. High tech safety gear includes blind spot monitoring, a reversing camera, and \u2018Electronic Roll Mitigation.\u2019 You can even have heated seats and steering wheel, but Jeep is emphasising that the Wrangler remains the most rugged SUV you can buy - the windscreen still folds flat, the doors can be removed entirely, and there are even instructions for how to do so and the tools you\u2019ll need in the central armrest.\nWrangler prices currently start at \u20ac53,250, but this model is likely to be a bit more expensive when it arrived in the autumn.\nOpel back in profit in Europe as French ownership seems to suit the car brand\nHave we just seen the peak of the classic car market?\nMerc\u2019s sober-suited hot-rod laps up the road \u2013 and the praise\nBehind the wheel of McLaren\u2019s Senna supercar\nSergio Marchionne a major loss to a motor industry in a state of spin\nRSA extends NCT provider\u2019s 10-year contract by six months\nBMW says its full range is now compliant with new emissions test standards\nNew Ford GT arrives into Ireland for customer delivery - at \u20ac500,000 before tax\nVW\u2019s new Polo GTi goes on sale in Ireland\nVW Touareg: can the luxury SUV stop its tribe from shrinking?",

Prosecutors say she killed Andersson, who was a University of Houston professor and researcher, during an argument at his condominium in June. She is currently free on a $100,000 bond.\nDuring opening statements, prosecutor Sarah Mickelson said Trujillo had a history of being angry and aggressive in her contentious on-again, off-again relationship with Andersson, a native of Sweden who became a U.S. citizen.\nMickelson said that earlier in June, Andersson and Trujillo, 45, a native of Mexico, had reconciled.\nThe prosecutor described Andersson as mild-mannered and quiet, and Trujillo as hot-tempered.\nOn the night of the slaying, the couple was out drinking before they returned to Andersson's apartment. Mickelson said Trujillo got angry after arriving home and that the two began arguing.\nMickelson told jurors that during the confrontation, Andersson was injured and fell on his back. Trujillo sat on Andersson, preventing him from getting up, and repeatedly struck him in the face and head with her shoe, she said.\n\"The one thing we can be sure of in this case is that Ana Trujillo is not a victim. Ana Trujillo struck Stefan Andersson 25 times with the heel of her shoe while he lay on the floor and bled out,\" Mickelson said.\nTrujillo's attorney, John Carroll, described Andersson as an alcoholic who would become violent toward Trujillo. He said on the night of Andersson's death, Trujillo planned to leave him and go to a friend's house, but Andersson slammed her against a wall, grabbed her and threw her over a couch.\n\"She couldn't breathe. And she was begging and begging (Andersson) to let her go ... He started suffocating her ... She did the only thing she could do, take a weapon at her disposal, which was a shoe, and started hitting him,\" Carroll said.\nThe first few witnesses for prosecutors described Andersson as a kind, polite man who did have a drinking problem.\nThe trial was expected to last at least a week.",

Today we are sharing the transcript for that podcast for those of you who prefer to read interviews.\nJeff Sauer: Hello and welcome to the Jumpstart Podcast with Jeffalytics. I\u2019m your host Jeff Sauer. Today for our second episode, we will talk to one of the rising stars in the analytics community Krista Seiden.\nFor those of you wondering where I am at the moment, this intro is being recorded in Sydney, Australia. The podcast would go live when I\u2019m flying somewhere over the Arabian Peninsula. Krista Seiden\u2019s been on a quite a journey over the last couple of years.\nShe sat down with me where we talked about her journey from being a pre-med major in college all the way in chancing upon a job in the world of web analytics. From there, Krista has taken the industry by storm. As analytics and evangelist for Google, she reaches millions of customers world-wide and with her education and outreach programs.\nIn 2014, Krista was named the Rising Star by the Digital Analytics Association.

Since then, we\u2019ve had the opportunity to speak and meet several times.\nIt\u2019s easy to admire Krista for her contributions to the industry but I came way most impressed by her decision making process and the direct nature in which she\u2019s been able to progress her career. If you\u2019re not sure what direction you want to take your career, you should definitely listen to Krista\u2019s story for inspiration.\n\u201cGoogle AdWords generated over $131,000,000,000 in the economic activity in the United States alone in 2014.

You can view the show notes from our podcast by going to www.Jeffalytics.com/Krista.\nHey Krista! Thanks for joining us on the podcast. What was the first time that you remember that you ever got somebody interested in what you have to say as far as whether it\u2019s something you were trying to get people to purchase or if you\u2019re just getting somebody interested in the cause that you\u2019re interested? Do you remember back the first time you realized that you had a gift?\nKrista Seiden: When I was at Adobe, I became fairly interested in dashboarding and making kind of a story out of the data that I was seeing and what are business unit was doing. I remember going to this training for Xcelsius which is a dashboarding software.\nI kind of wanting to pull my hair up because it was pretty difficult and the things that I wanted to do, I had to learn how to do \u2013 age lookups and view lookups. All of these different things make sell which wasn\u2019t at the time kind of a skill that I possessed.\nI remember just sitting down and focusing very hard on doing these for several weeks in a row. The outcome actually was a different pretty and robust dashboard which got sent all the way up to the CEO at Adobe to Shantanu and feedback came back down that: \u201cHe liked it so much that he wanted the whole company to format their dashboards in that way.\u201d\nI kind of that point realized how powerful data visualization and story-telling through data visualization could be. I was kind of that first little nugget that got me even more interested in marketing and marketing analytics.\nJeff Sauer: That\u2019s great. That\u2019s a really powerful story. So you\u2019re just basically, you sort of getting started on the job and you want to do your best and you did that. You\u2019re able to get all the way to the top. That\u2019s amazing! I can see how that can really work to peak that curiosity.\nSo from that point on, did you just decide this is analytics and this area is my area focus or are you already focused on that before then?\nKrista Seiden: I wasn\u2019t really focused on it before then. That was kind of my first foray into it. I knew that I was sort on the data visualization and the story telling but I actually was in completely sold on whether or not I wanted to make analytics my core focus in the next several years.\nActually, I remember sitting down with both of my boss and another woman who I worked very closely with. She was much more senior than me at the time while I was at Adobe. Having conversations about kind of where I wanted my career to go and whether or not I wanted to focus on analytics.\nBoth of them identified that they\u2019ve thought that I was really good at where I was doing and not that I could see this being a career path for me. I think that I when I found some both of them actually was that, I wasn\u2019t sure if I wanted to be pigeon-holed into analytics as a career. I worry that if I\u2019d focus so much on right now that I might not have other options in the future.\nSo fast forward several years, I think it\u2019s probably a really funny conversation now.\nJeff Sauer: Yes. Well, I think that\u2019s a really good point to make. Though, I have the same reservations actually. We have a pretty similar background in working with data. I knew that there was a need for it. I knew there were opportunities but I also wasn\u2019t sure that it was my long-term solution because of a few things.\nCould I stay up to date with the technology?\nDid I want to do that?\nWas that where the jobs where going to be?\nWas that where everybody was going to be focused on?\nSo I think that it\u2019s a common thing for us to question whether these are areas that we should be focusing on or not. For me, I took some time off from doing database, marketing and analytics for several years learning other things. Then I came back to it in the end and realize that it is something that can grow pretty much infinitely with your career path.\nKrista Seiden: Yes, I definitely agree. I remember my boss at the time trying to convince me that: \u201cHe was looking into the future and could see the analytics industry growing infinitely and that there was going to be a huge career path for me there.\u201d All these years later, I would very much like to thank him for that advice.\n[easy-tweet tweet=\u201dThe analytics industry is growing infinitely and there is a huge career path opportunity\u201d user=\u201dkristaseiden\u201d]\nJeff Sauer: That\u2019s great! It sounds like you had some really good mentors when you\u2019re at Adobe that helped you get into this area.\nSo I\u2019m curious though because looking at your college experience, it doesn\u2019t seem like it wasn\u2019t in analytics. So how did you make the transition from going to school for economics, political science that type of stuff; how did you transition into it deciding to get that first job in marketing in the first place?\nKrista Seiden: Definitely it\u2019s not something that I even knew about let alone focus on in college. I actually started college as a molecular and solar biology major. I thought I was going to be pre-med and become a doctor. That was short-lived once I took first semester chemistry and realized how hard it was. So I changed to Poli-Sci and Econ as a double major with a focus on business.\nAt that point I actually thought that I was going to politics. I really enjoyed politics. I interned in Washington DC. I really loved that world. But coming back from an internship and kind of facing the prospects of going out into a real world, I was faced with a decision of whether or not I wanted to kind of move to DC and try to find a job.\nIf I wanted to stay in the Bay Area and doing that politics, probably I wasn\u2019t going to be my focus. Then I decided that I did want to stay in the Bay Area. In that time, we were just coming into a financial crash or the early signs of it. The job market was pretty tough. There weren\u2019t a lot of jobs out there.\nI remember applying to probably a 100 different jobs as I was graduating college. The very first job that I was seriously interviewed for and got an offer that I took. That happens to be in finance for HSBC, working on a fixed income trading desk. They thought my economics background was fairly applicable there.\nIt\u2019s wasn\u2019t a passion of mine. I was working market hours in San Francisco. So I was at my desk at 5:30 every morning and it just wasn\u2019t the work. I was there for at 5:30 in the morning wasn\u2019t something that I felt passionate about. I think that\u2019s really important. I think there have been many times since then where I have been at work at 5:30 in the morning to push through a big lunch or to work on a big meeting. But it was a much different feeling because I was passionate about what I was doing.\nBut to make a long story short there, I did end up getting laid off from that job with the financial crash in early 2009. Again, I was applying for many, many jobs and was lucky enough to land a job at Adobe as a business and marketing analyst. That\u2019s kind of how I made that transitioned from finance with an interesting political science and even before that molecular and solar biology background ends in analytics.\nJeff Sauer: Wow! That\u2019s a great transition. Just looking at my own story, it\u2019s very similar. I graduated in the down market as well. At 2003, there were no jobs available. I took the first job that called me back because that was what I needed to do at that time. I realize that it wasn\u2019t end all be all.\nBut sometimes you just have to take something in order to be stable. Then you really can grow into things.\nIt sounds like: \u201cIt\u2019s very fortuitous that you grew into this next position at Adobe because it\u2019s sort of impacted a lot of the things that you were able to do from that point on.\u201d\nKrista Seiden: It did for sure. Most people don\u2019t ever find themselves lucky to have been laid off. But in this case, I really do consider myself lucky because it was a career change that I hadn\u2019t planned on at the time. But I\u2019m very, very thankful that I made it.\nJeff Sauer: Yes, so let\u2019s talk a little bit about that job at Adobe and just how it helped you along the way in what you were able to do. So you\u2019re a business analyst and then, how did you grow throughout that organization? What was the timeline that you were able to move along?\nKrista Seiden: So I was at Adobe for two and half, closer to three years. My first 6 to 12 months there, I was really more on the business analysis side of things. I worked on a business operations team for at the time what was called the: \u201cBusiness Productivity Business Unit.\u201d I\u2019m just naming of their business units over there at the time.\nBut it was basically the second biggest business unit at Adobe behind the Creative Suite. So the Creative Suite was the biggest business unit and the one that I\u2019ve worked for was responsible for Acrobat and LiveCycle and Adobe connect and I feel their pieces of enterprise software.\nJeff Sauer: Okay.\nKrista Seiden: Then I was really lucky and fortunate in that world to be working for somebody who is on the director level and who really put a lot of faith in me from Day One.\nSo from Day One, I was doing business analysis type of things. But my director was so incredibly busy with everything that he was doing that I ended up getting sent to many meetings on his behalf where I was sitting in meetings with senior directors and VPs from other business units representing the second largest business unit.\nAt Adobe, I was a junior analyst and to have that faith be put in me \u2013 it was an amazing feeling and kind of really give me the ability to have visibility within the company. That\u2019s how I kind of grab into that dashboarding program that I mentioned earlier where I ended up creating the dashboards for that business unit.\nBut I ended up to going to Shantanu for every month. It was through that process actually that I got interested in analytics. So I realized: \u201cEvery month, there was always updating these dashboards that a good portion of the metrics that I was hunting 30 different people down for. I ended up coming from amateur from psych catalyst.\u201d\nI wanted to remove a lot of the in-between of having to talk to so many people to get these numbers. So I went to a web analytics team at the time. I said: \u201cHey! Teach me how to do this. That way I don\u2019t have to come to you every month for this.\u201d They are more than happy to do that. They taught me how to pull the reports and what to look for. That was kind of the beginning of my interest in on my journey in analytics.\nThen I was fortunate enough to actually be at Adobe while they acquired Omniture. So by the year after, I started there, they acquired Omniture. At that point, all of the trainings that Omniture offered became free to Adobe in place. So I was lucky to be able to take every course that I wanted to on Psych Catalyst and discover and test in target and implementation.\nI really dove in and focused on scaling at my tool set there. Then, I was given the opportunity to move over to the acrobat product line and use the skills that I had gained over the previous year and a half and focus solely on web analytics. So that\u2019s then what I did.\nJeff Sauer: That\u2019s great. This is a great learning story for all of us to learn from that is that: \u201cA lot of us weren\u2019t planned but it was just taking advantage of the situation?\u201d\nSo knowing that you\u2019re being fortunate enough to find a company that was growing but also had somebody people, working on so many things that they were able to trust you with some major projects right away. It\u2019s a really good place to be.\nBut I think a lot of people find themselves in that situation. They\u2019re not sure whether they can take initiative or not. So how did you balance being the new person on the block for the most part?\nJust a couple of year or so into the job and then doing these ambitious things that a lot of people wouldn\u2019t become comfortable doing. Were you scared? Did you think this is not the right thing to do? How did you manage that?\nKrista Seiden: Yes, I think it was a combination of a couple of things. I\u2019ve always been kind of an ambitious person and aggressive winner. So when I found out that these courses were available, I did everything in my power to get my best to say: \u201cYes.\u201d To allow me to take the time to go to these courses as well as finding space in the available courses because that was also difficult.\nI ended up pulling a few strings to be able to do that which kind of came through networking that I had done within the company. So it was one aspect of it were just: \u201cRepeat all the learning.\u201d But I think another aspect of it was: \u201cOnce my boss realized that this actually was an area that I was very much interested in like I was saying earlier, he actually pushed me into it.\u201d\nHe said: \u201cI see that there is interest here and while you may not want to be pigeon-holed into this, I think this is an area that there\u2019s a lot of growth potential here for you.\u201d As much as he didn\u2019t want me to leave his team, he thought it was good for me and my career to go ahead and focus all of my efforts in time on that project.\nSo he had kind of a six-month transition period where I kind of moved over from his team to the Acrobat Product Team to learn analytics to cross all of their Cloud offering.\nJeff Sauer: That\u2019s great. So you obviously taking the initiative and getting there. Were you ever unsure of whether that was the right thing to do or you\u2019re just like: \u201cThis is what I need to do. This is the step part or you just sorted say: \u201cThis is the right thing for the company, the right thing for me.\u201d\nI\u2019m just curious as to your motivation just to help understand for others how do you approach this because this is not something that you hear every day and that somebody is able to do?\nKrista Seiden: Totally. So every time that I have change jobs in my career, I question myself if this is the right thing to do, if this is the right time, if I\u2019m making the right decision. So moving from a more of a business analyst role to a web analytics role, I definitely question that.\nAgain, I just wasn\u2019t sure that I wanted to make that my full time career \u2013 that I was excited by the opportunity and interested with data and the tool set and the story-telling. I was also kind of afraid to leave that first team out of Adobe yet. My first place that I really felt comfortable in a workplace being so young and new to the industry \u2013 that was also kind of a big moment for me to kind of move on from the mentorship that I had in that original role.\nSo I think those are two things that I very much question and pondered and talked with my boss at the time. My former boss there, I had two bosses in that role who I consider them to stay team mentors of mine.\nWhen I talk to people outside, parents-friends and know I was able to come to terms with wanting to explore the analytic side of things a little bit more and that made me feel comfortable enough to go ahead and move on over and make that my full time role.\nJeff Sauer: That\u2019s great! I was going to ask you: \u201cIt sounds like you had some amazing internal mentors.\u201d That\u2019s the best type of leadership.\nThe best type of leader is somebody who realizes they have a talented person in their team but actually will let them go and do more things because they realized their talents can be much more useful elsewhere.\n[easy-tweet tweet=\u201dThe best type of leader is somebody who realizes they have a talented person in their team but actually will let them go and do more things\u201d user=\u201djeffalytics\u201d]\nSo you had some great internal mentors. But then it also sounds like you had a strong network as well outside of that. So that\u2019s really important because I know that a lot of people that are looking into getting to digital marketing, they might not have a direct advocate in their organization.\nThey might be in an organization that they feel is a dead end. So it\u2019s great to know that you pursued people outside of it.\nKrista Seiden: Yes, I think it\u2019s really important and actually heard somebody say this last week and I couldn\u2019t agree more.\n\u201cIt\u2019s important to find mentors in the industry that you look up to and they don\u2019t necessarily need to know that you consider them a mentor.\u201d\n[easy-tweet tweet=\u201dIt\u2019s important to find mentors in the industry that you look up to and they don\u2019t necessarily need to know that you consider them a mentor.\u201d user=\u201dkristaseiden\u201d]\nIt\u2019s great to have that two-way communication but you can also use people as a lamp post to look to and understand their career and how they\u2019ve moved through various roles \u2013 the paths that they have taken to get to where they are today. You know reading up on their blogs and if they have published books or their social presence. All of that stuff helps to kind of inform you and help you build an idea of potential career paths.\nJeff Sauer: Absolutely.\nKrista Seiden: I think that\u2019s great.\nJeff Sauer: That\u2019s exactly what I have to do. A lot of time even today as I find myself you know I\u2019m established where I want to be right now. But I think that I always had to learn from the people and learn their stories. That\u2019s part of the reason for this podcast is really to share that and to have it in one consolidated place.\nHere is Krista\u2019s story which I think is really unfolding really interestingly to see how it happened. One comment for the listeners on concept of evaluating whether a move is the right move or not, I had dig the exact same things. So I put together a matrix. This is 10 plus years ago between the pros and cons of staying in an independent contractor or to join the company that I ultimately ended up joining.\nI put down financial \u2013 my own personal freedom those types of things in a matrix and just I said: \u201cI think it\u2019s a better move to go with the agency because of all these different things and I talked over with my father who is a really good mentor to me as well.\u201d We went through that process and we\u2019re able to determine that it was the right move to make and I still stand that it was the right move.\nIt was one of those things where I was scary. It was a lot less comfortable to do that \u2013 to do the new things than it is to stick with where you are. So I applaud you for that. Excellent! So let\u2019s keep going through the journey.\nSo you were at Adobe and then you were on Acrobat Team. You\u2019re heading up all the Cloud Analytics and then what made you keep on going from there?\nKrista Seiden: I ended up taking a call from a recruiter. Out of curiosity, I wanted to hear what they had to say and how a couple of interviews \u2013 one with a consultancy and one with the company I ended up moving to which was the Apollo Group.\nAt the time, I wasn\u2019t actually looking to leave Adobe or to move away. I loved what I was doing there at the time. Not only was I running analytics for the Cloud Products of Acrobat but also for the previous six months had been fortunate enough to work closely with the Omniture Business Unit. I\u2019m helping to design and build out their first iteration of their social analytics tool.\nThat was incredibly rewarding for me. Something I hadn\u2019t done before which was work on product and work with engineers and product managers. So it\u2019s an incredibly cool experience. Then this phone call came and I was really torn whether or not to even engage and I think many people kind of go through this and they get a call from a recruiter \u2013 that sense of loyalty and excitement for what you\u2019re doing versus what are the other options out there.\nSo I ended up getting offers from both of the companies that I interviewed for. To be quite honest, it was one of those things where it was just kind of too good of an opportunity to turn down. So I ended up talking with all of my mentors once again including two of my former bosses at Adobe.\nI\u2019m really trying to get their opinion on the potential career path and what would I be doing and leading and what would be the next move after this one. Whether or not that aligned with where I wanted to go. The feedback that I got was: \u201cWe\u2019re really going to miss you. We wish that you would stay. But it really does sound like this is a good opportunity for you.\u201d\nSo again it was kind of that, I wouldn\u2019t say push out the door. But it was that acknowledgement that I had grown and learned as much as I probably was going to learn in that role and not there were other opportunities out there at the time that I could probably get more out of.\nSo I applaud my mentors and former bosses at Adobe for taking that stance and really having my future and my career ahead of their own needs at the time.\nJeff Sauer: Yes, I would give them credits as well. I think that-that\u2019s the right thing to do. From a management perspective and I applaud them from making that. I\u2019m curious that this is one move and then you are also applauding out the next move after that. Did you have an idea in mind as to what you would be doing after that?\nKrista Seiden: I didn\u2019t have an exact idea. I knew that it would probably stay in the road probably good for one or two years. Then see what other opportunities were out there. But I knew that where it would go from there, it would be a significant staff from where I\u2019ve been.\nI was thinking down the line to potential other companies and actually wouldn\u2019t have type Google on that three-year plan at all. That was another little twist in the story. But yes. I think you always have to think one step ahead when you\u2019re looking at the next job.\nJeff Sauer: Yes, absolutely. Well, then we got to get into this twist. I\u2019m dying to know how this twist came about and maybe a little more about that.\nKrista Seiden: Sure. So I think ultimately, I think leaving Adobe and going to the Apollo Group is one of the best things that I could have done for my career. But I didn\u2019t really love what I was doing there. I didn\u2019t find it as fulfilling as I had found the work at Adobe.\nSo I knew pretty earlier on in my time at Apollo that I was going to spend around a year there, learn as much as I could. Scale up my skill set around Google Analytics which there was their main tools on this core metrics. I have the opportunity to work on social analytics and mobile analytics which was a really exciting area for me.\nSpecifically, I\u2019m in the mobile analytics where I got also deal with a lot of [inaudible 00:22:43] studies and help tie together qualitative and quantitative stories. So I knew all of that was really exciting and that was a skill set that I wanted to learn and internalize as much as possible. But the environment and what I was doing overall just wasn\u2019t really a good fit for me.\nKrista Seiden: So about nine months into that role, looking ahead to that one year mark \u2013 I started to see what else was out there. So I was talking to few people and I\u2019m talking to few companies and then I got a call from a recruiter at Google. I actually was not a call that I wanted. I had no interest at the time to go work at Google.\nActually, I told the recruiter that and I said: \u201cHey! You know thanks for calling but I\u2019m not interested.\u201d But I\u2019m obsessed on. Then I proceed to get multiple e-mails and several more phone calls from this recruiter. She got really sneaky. She ended up calling me from her personal cellphone which is a different area code so you didn\u2019t realize it when I pick up the phone.\nWhen she got a hold of me she said: \u201cJust hear me out.\u201d I said: \u201cOkay.\u201d She explained the role to me and explained the opportunity and it turned out to be really appealing to me. That was to go run and you know it\u2019s an optimization organization for the Google Apps for business group \u2013 so basically an internal practitioner role at Google, responsible for a couple of key pillars.\nSo a high level of dashboarding, recording to key stakeholders, GA implementation and then scaling up and AB testing and optimization for them. Then there was also the possibility of scaling that how into a team of a couple of junior analysts and moving up into more of a management role.\nJust a longer term possibilities there looked very appealing from the outside. So despite the fact that I had initially been interested in Google \u2013 that became my number one interest as I was interviewing. So that\u2019s kind of the twist there.\nJeff Sauer: Interesting! I\u2019m just curious. Did you ever hear later on about how they targeted you to the point where they were that persistent? Because I think that a lot of us would love to be having Google breathing down our necks.\nKrista Seiden: I did hear and I was incredibly honored to have been thought of by this person. But essentially it was somebody in the industry who I look up to and actually as I was interviewing for this job and interviewing for another at a company that he used to work for.\nI was pinging him, asking for an advice as a mentor figure kind for which way should I go. So I found out, several months later after I had taken the Google job that this person who\u2019s not at Google had in fact recommended me to a friend of his on the Google Apps business team \u2013 who had let them know that he was looking for somebody who\u2019s really strong in these areas. I couldn\u2019t believe.\nIt kind of my luck I guess in that area. But that all came down to networking and to really fostering, mentor-mentee relationship with somebody that I looked up into in the industry and that\u2019s how this opportunity came about.\nJeff Sauer: That\u2019s a great story because that\u2019s what I tell people all the time. They should be doing especially my students in class. I don\u2019t know. I see it connects.\nI always say: \u201cYou should find a mentor. You should find somebody who has the role you want or find somebody who\u2019s established and get to know them. Do something for their benefit. Help them out as much as you can but then also see if they can help you out.\u201d\n[easy-tweet tweet=\u201dYou should find a mentor. You should find somebody who has the role you want or find somebody who\u2019s established and get to know them\u201d user=\u201djeffalytics\u201d]\nSo how did you approach this person? How did you go about that? I\u2019m just curious.\nKrista Seiden: So this is a person that I\u2019ve known for a few years in the industry just through Twittering and then eventually through friends. He works for a major consultancy that I\u2019ve done business with in the past. He was just somebody that I really looked up to and respected as an authoritative figure on analytics.\nSo I had kind of had conversations with him over the years at conferences and on Twitter a little bit. When it came down to it, I was like: \u201cI had to e-mail this person and ask them their thoughts on this two opposing roles.\u201d Then it just so happen that he had been the one to recommend into the role that I ended up taking.\nJeff Sauer: That\u2019s great! So the timeline of this experience is not and I think a lot of people expected networking as something that\u2019s going to give them results like tangible results in the next two months or three months.\nBut this is something that you\u2019ve been networking in like when I talk about networking, it\u2019s really just getting to know people. It\u2019s getting to understand who people are on your industry and forming relationships. It\u2019s not always about getting results out of it. But over the course of several years, by doing the networking, it\u2019s resulting in more opportunities for you and the ultimate opportunity for you as well.\nKrista Seiden: Yes. I mean I probably only had a real conversation in person with this individual eight \u2013 ten months before I ended up getting this recommendation. So probably, I don\u2019t think I met him in person and tell them I was at the Apollo Group already. But I had known him through other through groups for the previous couple of years.\nJeff Sauer: It\u2019s great. So start your networking now. Start planting needs as I call it because eventually that\u2019s going to come to your benefit.\n\u201cThe more you do, the more options you have in the future.\u201d That\u2019s my advice to everybody out there.\nKrista Seiden: Absolutely.\nJeff Sauer: Great. This is a question I\u2019m curious about. How has location factored in your journey? I\u2019m sort of fascinated by this sounds like you\u2019ve been in the Bay Area from schooling and then you\u2019ve been in the Bay Area the whole time. Is that been a pretty vital part to what you\u2019re doing here?\nKrista Seiden: Yes, I do think so. So I grew up in the Bay Area in the Greater East Bay Area as I like to call it. Some people call it The Sacramento Valley. It\u2019s a small town call back to them. But it\u2019s only an hour from San Francisco. So this has been kind of my home my whole life.\nBut I really do think like I have gone to UC Berkeley and then move to San Francisco. This is really a tough cab. There\u2019s a lot of opportunity here. I do think a lot of the big tech companies\u2019 look to hire people who are coming out of schools in the Bay Area because they\u2019re kind of just ingrain with this tech culture from the get-go.\nJeff Sauer: Yes, absolutely! That even does create certain opportunities. I think if you\u2019re looking to get in to marketing, there are certain hubs where there\u2019s a lot of need for marketers and a lot of opportunities there.\nBut I think the other thing that\u2019s nice is that: \u201cIf you\u2019re interested in it, you can sort of hone your skills anywhere and then location is important in certain cases. In some cases, I think it really doesn\u2019t matter as much.\u201d It really just depends on the situation.\nBut it sounds like I mean obviously the company that you\u2019re working with our based in the Bay Area. So that\u2019s a really important piece of that part of the puzzle.\nKrista Seiden: For me, it has been. That I would echo your thoughts that you can get into this industry anywhere and I have many friends all over the United States, all over the world who do this better than I. This is a skill set that you can take on the road with you pretty much anywhere you want to go.\nJeff Sauer: Yes, absolutely. This is not only is it location independent. I think the ability to a good analyst or a good analyze and to have critical thinking skills, I think it\u2019s a timeless skill as well.\nIt\u2019s something that no matter where you are in your career and what time it is, the ability to analyze behavior into really get to know why these things happen and then to improve it and to make improvements for an organization \u2013 we all need that. Everybody needs that. You\u2019ve been able to move on from Google.\nThat sort of where I got to know you a little bit was when you are in the role at Google Adsense and I\u2019ve just seen you blossom into New Comer of the year for the Digital Analytics Association, Practitioner of the Year. It\u2019s really cool to see your rise and the opportunities that are there. How did you prepare yourself for this? How do you stay current? How do you stay involve? How do you keep on learning?\nKrista Seiden: So I think that\u2019s a great question. I\u2019m kind of going to take you back to basically my first day or my first week at Google to answer that question. So I\u2019m on my second role at Google now. I\u2019m the Analytics Advocate for Google Analytics. But the first role was where I came in to lead that analytics optimization program.\nWhen I came in, I was a team of one. I very, very quickly realized that: \u201cThere was nobody else in the marketing organization that I was working in that really understood how analytics work, how Google Analytics in particular worked from a technical perspective.\u201d I was never that technical of an analyst.\nI was very good at diving into the UI of the tool site and pulling data in making a story, exporting it to Excel or Google Spreadsheet. But I\u2019d never really been on the implementation side. I guided implementations. I given my specifications but I\u2019d always handed that off to a developer or more technical person. But I didn\u2019t have that when I came to Google.\nI was that and I was expected to be both goals. So basically, I\u2019d say for the first couple of months of my time in Google, I spent hours and hours learning some basic Java Scripts and some basic coding as well as just implementation best practices.\nI scour the Blogosphere and Twitter and started following a bunch of people who I knew were great implementers and great technical analysts and really just learn from other people. So when I told you that: \u201cI kind of have found mentors that I don\u2019t really know that they\u2019re my mentors.\u201d I consider many people from Twitter to have been some of my technical mentors that I have basically have learned so much from.\nSo it was really something where I looked at the job description and it didn\u2019t quite match the reality of what I found myself having to do which was much more technical than I\u2019ve expected. I decided that I was rather than running away and hiding. I just dive in and learn when I needed to learn because there was nobody else there they do it for me.\nI think it\u2019s really determination. The research is out there. It\u2019s having the determination to do it.\nJeff Sauer: Yes, absolutely. I think that\u2019s the really good lesson.\nIt\u2019s the second time you said that you\u2019ve done that is that: \u201cJust because you\u2019re in a role and just because a job description says one thing, it doesn\u2019t mean that-that\u2019s what needs to be done.\u201d\n[easy-tweet tweet=\u201dJust because you\u2019re in a role and just because a job description says one thing, it doesn\u2019t mean that-that\u2019s what needs to be done.\u201d user=\u201djeffalytics\u201d]\nBoth times, I\u2019m sure that several times, you probably do this every single day. You don\u2019t just say: \u201cWell, this isn\u2019t what I\u2019m supposed to be doing.\u201d\nYou say: \u201cThis is what needs to be done and you take that initiative and just do it.\u201d\nSo many people are afraid to just do it. I think that it\u2019s really important in this industry this growing industry of digital marketing, the thing that\u2019s happening and changing all the time. Sometimes things aren\u2019t going to happen perfectly. In fact, almost every single time things don\u2019t happen exactly how you plan it.\nSo ultimately, it\u2019s all about having those skills and that desire to get done what needs to get done. That\u2019s where we get the best results. People just do the bare minimum; the results are usually not good at all. Usually, the results are very poor and so it\u2019s all about doing what you need to do to get the best results.\nKrista Seiden: Definitely! A lot of people think that analytics and the technical side of digital marketing isn\u2019t very a creative field. But I would definitely say that they are wrong. It\u2019s the people that can get creative with the data and with the stories and how you\u2019re pulling it altogether that really do succeed and blossom in this industry.\n[easy-tweet tweet=\u201dA lot of people think that analytics and the technical side of digital marketing isn\u2019t very a creative field. But I would say that they are wrong. \u201d user=\u201dkristaseiden\u201d]\nJeff Sauer: Absolutely. This is a question that I only feel comfortable asking you this because you\u2019ve written about it as well. How are you impacted by being a woman in technology?\nNow I know you\u2019ve written about this and I love your post so I\u2019m going to share it on the show notes because it\u2019s just a really fair balanced post. But how does that factor into this? Is that been a factor at all for you in anything you\u2019ve done here? How does it impact you?\nKrista Seiden: Yes, so I would love to sit here and say that: \u201cI don\u2019t feel that I\u2019ve been impacted at all by being a woman in a fairly male dominated in technical industry\u201d but it\u2019s just not true. I think that I\u2019ve been impacted in both positive and negative ways.\nSo in the positive side of things kind of, I\u2019ll say that: \u201cI think that I\u2019ve had more opportunity than potentially some of my male counterparts career would have gotten because I stand out in the industry as one of the few women.\u201d I have actually receive e-mails asking me specifically to speak at certain conferences or come to certain events because I\u2019m the strong female speaker which I don\u2019t really agree with and I\u2019ll get to that in a moment.\nBut the opportunities have been there for me because I am a woman. I think many of the times. On the folks that I did at it really has at times been difficult. There have been a couple of instances that I have actually happen to me recently where I just become very clear to me that I am seen not as a strong person in my industry but as a female in the industry or a strong female in the industry.\nWith that come a lot of stereotypes around a woman\u2019s role in the society. So you can read the blog post for more information on that. But I think my main thoughts and kind of takeaways for these are two-fold.\nOne is caught up in action again to everybody and that\u2019s: \u201cDon\u2019t look at people based on gender.\u201d\n[easy-tweet tweet=\u201dDon\u2019t look at people based on gender.\u201d user=\u201dkristaseiden\u201d]\nWhen you\u2019re considering them for a role or when you need a technical expert or a digital marketing expert, don\u2019t say: \u201cHey I need a woman in this role. I\u2019m going to look for a tough woman.\u201d Say: \u201cI need somebody with a great skill set.\u201d That\u2019s what you\u2019re considering because I don\u2019t need to be known as a strong female in the industry. I just want to be known as somebody who is good and skilled at what I do.\nThe other like kind of action in takeaway is really for all of the women who are listening. \u201cI really hope that you don\u2019t feel that you\u2019re not as good or you\u2019re not as smart or strong as other people in the room because you are a woman.\u201d\n[easy-tweet tweet=\u201dI really hope that you don\u2019t feel that you\u2019re not as good or you\u2019re not as smart or strong as other people in the room because you are a woman.\u201d user=\u201dkristaseiden\u201d]\nI know a lot of times people are unfortunately scared to speak up when they are of minority whether that would be gender or race or any other. I think it\u2019s a shame but I think it\u2019s a knock on us to really stand up and be strong in who we are and what we can bring to the table.\nJeff Sauer: I think everybody should know that you are a kickass analyst. Obviously, you went to the process of learning what you needed to learn. When the CEO of Adobe sees your dashboard, he doesn\u2019t know who made it. He just knows that he sees a great dashboard, right? That\u2019s the important thing here.\nYour boss and everybody that\u2019s a mentor \u2013 the gender issue is very prominent in our industry absolutely. We shouldn\u2019t deny that-that is not a factor that goes into this. But I don\u2019t think that we should consider that a factor when it comes to the things that you\u2019ve accomplished or the things that you have done here and I\u2019m glad to hear you\u2019re once again just did truly balance perspective.\nI would say: \u201cFor females listening to this podcast, Krista is a great example. For males listening to this podcast, Krista is a great example.\u201d\nThese are the things you need to do in order to have a great career. These are the things that you need to do in order to grow and in order to set your targets and to achieve what you want to achieve. So don\u2019t take this with a bias by any means as far as the gender goes that shouldn\u2019t really be a factor here.\nIt\u2019s all about somebody who came and did what they wanted to do and really accomplish so much. I\u2019m really inspired by the story.\nKrista Seiden: Thanks Jeff.\nJeff Sauer: You know that\u2019s sort of a heavy subject. So let\u2019s lighten up a little bit here. Do you work on any side projects right now or anything to stay learning or do you mostly do your learning on the job?\nKrista Seiden: So I do a lot of learning on the job but one of the things that I love the most about my current role is that I actually get to be out in the market with a lot of our users on a very frequent regular basis. So as an analytics advocate for Google Analytics, I get to travel all over the globe to go to conferences, to speak to our users.\nJust last week, I was in Melbourne, Australia. I had to speak at a couple of User Conferences. Those are great events to get to meet so many users from different perspectives, different backgrounds who are interested in visual marketing and analytics and hearing their stories and their pain points and things what they love and things that they don\u2019t.\nI get to take all of that user experience and feedback and come back to our product and engineering teams and say: \u201cHey! I have a lot of experience in this area and these are my personal thoughts.\u201d But then on top of that, these are all of the amazing stories that I have heard from our users. Here\u2019s how I think that we can take that feedback and make our product better.\nSo I guess it\u2019s kind of our job but I\u2019m blessed to constantly be learning from everybody else. I get paid to do that and it\u2019s really awesome.\nJeff Sauer: Yes and I like that you also blog right? That\u2019s your own material and you\u2019re sharing knowledge with people in that too. So I think that even having a blog is I considered a very valuable resource because there\u2019s a lot to learn.\nLike you said: \u201cYou need to have a complete perspective.\u201d\nYou can\u2019t just make product recommendations. You can\u2019t just say things in a vacuum. You can\u2019t just say: \u201cI think this is the right thing. You need to talk to users and even by doing it yourself, you can say: \u201cThis is really frustrating for me. On my own blog, I can imagine how frustrating it is for others.\u201d\nKrista Seiden: Definitely.\nJeff Sauer: I can attest that Google does listen. I mean they listen very well. Sometimes I\u2019m a little outspoken with the things that I say but almost always, Google listens or at least has empathy for the users and knows that these are things that we want to solve.\nSome of these problems, I mean we\u2019re talking about the biggest of big data. So you hear the word: \u201cBig data; Google Analytics your product in particular is the biggest, right?\u201d It\u2019s the most data that anybody collects and I believe in the world because of the number of users of the product.\nKeep that in mind that Google is working to make changes. Some changes are just aren\u2019t as easy as others are.\nKrista Seiden: Yes, it\u2019s true. But we\u2019re definitely working on it. Like I said, getting to hear that feedback constantly from our users and taking it back to our product team just makes it that much I think cooler if I can use that word there to see kind of that impact directly from users to product.\nJeff Sauer: \u2018Cool\u2019 is a great word for it because there\u2019s been times where I\u2019ve talked to somebody at Google about a feature or something and then to see it implemented, it is the coolest thing. It\u2019s almost surreal to see that-that impact can come from individuals or users with their product that the Google team is dedicated to improving it.\nAll right, so I think we\u2019re running out of time here. So I just wanted to ask one last question and that is: \u201cWhat advice do you have for a new marketer?\u201d Somebody who\u2019s looking to get in here, maybe somebody who is starting out, graduating without a marketing degree and wants to get into this industry maybe like you were?\nKrista Seiden: So I think that\u2019s a great question. I know that I have mentioned that several times but I can\u2019t stress enough how important I think it is to find mentors in the industry. Again, they don\u2019t have to know that they are your mentor. I\u2019ll give you a couple of examples.\n[easy-tweet tweet=\u201dIt is important to find mentors in your industry\u201d user=\u201dkristaseiden\u201d]\nThe job that I have now being an analytics advocate for Google Analytics is actually a job that I wanted and aspire to pretty much the whole time I have been in analytics. So right from the get-go, I started following and listening and reading the people who are in these types of roles. So I\u2019ve been nostalgic in my current boss Justin Cutroni.\nWhen I came to Google, I will never forget this. My very first week, I Google \u2013 I guess it was my second week at Google. I was in Boston to speak at E Metrics and Justin Cutroni was also there speaking up the same conference. This is when I had gone to come in Google Apps for business team and he sees me and he sits me down. He says a couple of things to me.\nHe says: \u201cFirst of all, welcome to Google. Second of all, why didn\u2019t you tell me you wanted to come to Google, I would have hired you. Third, here\u2019s our whole product role and what we\u2019re claiming for the next year. I would love your feedback on it and I wanted to do this quarterly. Let\u2019s sit down and have coffee every quarter.\u201d\nThat was so cool for me because up until that point, he had been this person who I had seen as a potential mentor of mine and somebody that I had followed and learned from over the years. He was kind of there and real life and fast forward two years later, I ended up going to work for him in the current role that I have.\nSo I really do think that mentorship from kind of start to finish being having that aspiration and learning from those people from afar and then as you can get closer to them and draw them in as actual mentors is such a great way to help you build a career.\nI think for people who are just starting out, there\u2019s a lot of ways that you can find those mentors. So first, there\u2019s Twitter and blogs. There\u2019s a lot of list out there.\nJeff, I\u2019m sure you have a robust list of people that your listeners can go ahead and look to and follow and learn from. But also there\u2019s things like the analysis exchange which is a really great effort to pair somebody new to the industry who\u2019s looking to learn with somebody who is a veteran and is willing to share their skill set and teach along with a non-profit and together.\nThey do a project for the non-profit focused around products in digital marketing to help that mentee learn and get into the industry well, helping the non-profit really get a leg. Have fun whatever but they were trying to accomplish. So I think there are a lot of opportunities but for me, it really all comes back to mentorship.\nJeff Sauer: That\u2019s great. That\u2019s perfect advice to close on because I think that\u2019s absolutely true is that: \u201cFinding mentors and like you said, it doesn\u2019t have to be somebody where you e-mail every single person in the phone book or in the e-mail directory and say \u2013 can you be my mentor?\u201d Sometimes it\u2019s just men leading by example, learning things and getting experience there.\nThen when the time comes after you\u2019ve followed them for a certain amount of time where you\u2019ve followed them on Twitter or interacted on Twitter those types of things \u2013 there\u2019s opportunities that you come to meet them whether it\u2019s at a conference, whether it\u2019s in person, a new structure or something those lines.\nUsually these relationships are cultivated over a long period of time and just take a lot of experience and a lot of goodwill to get to that point. But then once that person becomes either a mentor a peer depending on where you are, a lot of opportunities do open up and that\u2019s really an important piece to this. It\u2019s talking a lot of.\nThe reason why Kristen and I are talking right now is because we were able to meet each other. We met at a conference randomly and we\u2019ve had our friendship ever since. Now mutual respect and now, we\u2019re talking about this type of experience.\nThis would have been a lot harder for me to talk to Krista if I hadn\u2019t met her in person. If we haven\u2019t established that rapport beforehand and that\u2019s really the important thing here is we all need to do.\nJeff Sauer: Excellent! Well, thanks for joining us today Krista. I really enjoyed hearing your story. It\u2019s really fascinating and also inspiring. I\u2019m inspired.\nActually, it makes me thing that I need to do a few more things myself because of watching how excellent you\u2019ve done at everything you\u2019ve done. So you\u2019re really an inspiring story and I hope that everybody else enjoyed it as well.\nKrista Seiden: Thank you so much. I really appreciate you having me on. I\u2019m honored to be able to share my story with you.\nJeff Sauer: Well, there we have it Krista\u2019s story. It\u2019s inspiring, isn\u2019t it? I hope you came way as impress as I was. Keep an eye out for Krista in the future whether be it in analytics, politics or whatever path she decides to take. I know she\u2019s going to be successful.\nTo view all of our show notes from today\u2019s podcast, visit www.Jeffalytics.com/Krista. There you can learn how to subscribe to the podcast.

        "raw_content": "Sonic Blume (EP Review)\nListen to Sonic Blume's self-titled EP here.\nFor fans of: The Smiths, Mac Demarco, Cocteau Twins\nSonic Blume is a four-piece, indie rock outfit based out of Monmouth County. Founded in 2015, their debut, self-titled EP was released November 4th, 2017. The EP was released on Moto Records, a record label based out of Asbury Park. While it has only been a few short months since their release, Sonic Blume already boasts thousands of plays on their Spotify and recently opened up for Work In Progress, Gaten Matarazzo from Stranger Things's band.\nThe group consists of Max Connery, Daniel Murray, Andrew Phelan and Chase Landgrebe, and their influences range from The Smiths to Mac Demarco. In a time where the dreamy sounds of the 80\u2019s are becoming more and more popular, Sonic Blume fits right in. The group has a sound reminiscent of 80\u2019s UK dream pop; think Slowdive and Cocteau Twins. While their sound has hints of nostalgia, the group maintains a mature, modern sound. While the guitar lines sound like something Johnny Marr would play, the vocals remind the listener of everyone\u2019s favorite Canadian, Mac Demarco.\nThis brilliant blend of 80\u2019s and modern music shines particularly well on their track \u201cFirst Nite.\u201d The song is upbeat yet dreamy, with most instruments on the track drenched in reverb (a sound I am particularly fond of). This track really allows Landgrebe to show off his tasteful, Marr-driven guitar work. \u201cFirst Nite\u201d is a perfect encapsulation of what so many loved about the early 80\u2019s dream pop bands. I find it extremely impressive that this young group has such a handle on a particularly eclectic genre.\nClocking in around 22 minutes, this release is a time machine straight back to 1980\u2019s UK. Sonic Blume manages to pull off a difficult sound without coming off cliche or pretentious. I am really looking forward to seeing this group grow. Listen to their great debut here.\n\u2190 MOTO Records (Interview with Joey Affatato)Interview with Carlsea (Chelsea Carlson) \u2192",

        "raw_content": "Britannia and UK PI Club merger\nBritannia and UK P&I Club merger\nThe mooted merger between Britannia and UK P&I Club is no longer happening, but it has provoked renewed interest in how P&I clubs operate and whether other mergers may be on the table.\nTalks between Britannia and UK P&I Club about a merger to create a super club eventually fizzled out in June. However, the potential tie-up has sparked conversations about the benefits of mergers between other clubs, and particularly the smaller ones operating in the market.\nAt a first look, it\u2019s not clear what the benefits of any such tie-ups would be for the ship owners that comprise the clubs\u2019 memberships. Many ship owners enjoy being members of clubs where they know that their fellow members, the directors and the club managers all have a shared understanding of the club\u2019s aims. To themthere may be no obvious impetus to change the status quo.\nHowever, the merger speculation has ignited questions over whether P&I clubs are commercially competitive enough. In this specialist area of coverage \u2014 ship owners\u2019 liability to third parties \u2014 P&I clubs have a dominant position, with a market share north of 80%. Ship owners clearly enjoy the mutual ethos and the strong service culture of the club system. At face value the answer is yes. \u201cThe clubs claim they understand the business better than any commercial counterpart,\u201d says Mark Cracknell, Senior Partner in the Marine Division at JLT Specialty. \u201cMost of them have been around for more than 100 years, so they have a longevity that strongly suggests a tried and tested product delivering sound value for money.\u201d\nJLT Specialty places business across the P&I clubs, supporting ship owners in presenting risks, helping them to decide where to place business and negotiating competitive rates. \u201cShip owners want to know that they\u2019re getting the right price, and that they\u2019re in the right club. We enable them to benchmark; we are skilled negotiators and have very strong trading relationships with the clubs: plus we provide a full service, such as advice on coverage issues and contractual exposure,\u201d says Cracknell.\nClubs certainly have different styles. This can be seen in their different management arrangements. At one end of the spectrum is Standard Club, which is managed by the publicly quoted professional services company Charles Taylor. At the other end, the management of the Swedish Club, for example, is entirely on the club payroll. This can influence how a club operates.\nBritannia and UK Club are both managed by independent private firms, but there are differences in style. Britannia is seen as the more conservative, and less commercial, of the two. It has historically lacked appetite for the cruise ship industry and limited the business that it accepted to territories the Club felt it thoroughly understood, only relatively recently becoming significantly involved in Greek and Chinese business.\n\u201cThe process of them doing that took a number of years, in each case, before they felt sufficiently familiar with how those markets function to take the plunge and write business in a meaningful way,\u201d says Cracknell.\nBy contrast, UK Club is a broader church, open for most classes of business provided that it meets the Club\u2019s standards and will make a positive mutual contribution.\nMerger Benefits\nA merger between Britannia and a UK Club would have created a second mega P&I club, the other being Gard, and may even have formed the largest. As well as Gard, Britannia and UK P&I, there are ten other mostly smaller P&I clubs \u2014 about which some of the merger chatter in the market has been swirling.\n\u201cThe prospect of the merger had prompted a lot of the club managers to talk informally to one another about whether they should be proposing something similar to their boards of directors, but the discussions don\u2019t seem to have gone very far,\u201d says Cracknell.\nThe benefits of clubs merging could have included a combined, stronger management team and greater capital efficiency, reducing the need to fund a capital base from the membership, perhaps thereby reducing premiums.\n\u201cCapital in the clubs is raised from ship owners. The larger your portfolio, in simple terms, the less capital you need \u2014 you can make money go further if you\u2019re larger, because there are economies of scale. So that\u2019s a potential advantage of a merger,\u201d explains Cracknell. \u201cIn principle, we could see the advantages of a merger between Britannia and the UK P&I Club, but equally we could see why it might not be attractive to all members of both clubs. They are quite different in culture and business mix.\u201d\nAs well as bringing together management expertise, such an enlarged environment might also have provided a more dynamic workplace for employees, potentially attracting the best people.\nWith pros and cons on both sides of the argument, what probably broke the deal was the reality that the capital position of each club is different, and that trying to create a value proposition for members of both clubs proved to be an insurmountable challenge.\n\u201cBritannia members most likely feel that their capital position is stronger, relatively speaking, than UK Club, while UK Club members would be unlikely to see any need to concede ground on that score to Britannia,\u201d says Cracknell. \u201cMost believe it fell through over the question of establishing valuations of both businesses that were mutually acceptable to each other.\u201d\nThere will be disappointment on the part of some members of both clubs that the failure to agree a merger will prevent the dividend of surplus capital many had anticipated a merger would bring. That disappointment may linger as it becomes evident that \u2013 merger or not \u2013 these two clubs and virtually all the others now enjoy record surplus funds, equivalent in many cases to the requirement for an AAA rating based on the capital model of at least one well- known ratings agency. The challenge now and in the future for P&I clubs is how they will manage this.\n\u201cThey are \u2014 arguably \u2014 over capitalised, and that\u2019s a big challenge for the clubs going forward. What do they do about that? How do they deal with the fact that they have all accumulated huge surpluses, while continuing to navigate a marine liability environment that is not getting any easier?\u201d asks Cracknell.\nP&I rates have been held pretty steady for some years, and the clubs will not wish to see the weight of their surpluses put rates under pressure. Despite the operation of the International Group Agreement, the clubs\u2019 anti-competition agreement, there have been \u2018soft\u2019 P&I markets in the past, with disastrous results. The clubs will not wish to see P&I rates take the same path as the hull market, but it remains for them to address the fact that members increasingly consider clubs to be simply too wealthy and the pressure is on to bring premiums down.\nFor further information, please contact Mark Cracknell, Development Executive on +44 (0)20 7558 3816 or email mark_cracknell@jltgroup.com",

        "raw_content": "How does one join a nation?\nAny path that tries to cut corners is therefore invalid.\nPedestrians cross a street next to the light rail trams in Jerusalem in May. (photo credit: REUTERS)\nToward the end of Parashat Shlach there is a short list of instructions relating to sacrifices in the Temple, and at the end there is an interesting proclamation regarding the status of the \u201cger,\u201d a convert \u2013 a person who was not born Jewish but chose to join the Jewish nation, versus an \u201cezrach,\u201d a citizen \u2013 the term used by the Torah to describe a person who was born into the Jewish nation. This proclamation carries great ideological significance that should be examined closely.\n\u201cEvery native born shall do it in this manner\u2026If a proselyte resides with you\u2026as you make it, so shall he make it. One rule applies to the assembly, for yourselves and for the proselyte who resides [with you]; one rule applies throughout your generations just as [it is] for you, so [it is] for the proselyte, before the Lord. There shall be one law and one ordinance for you and the proselyte who resides [with you].\u201d (Numbers 15, 13-16)\nThese verses reemphasize the status of the ger, a status equal to every other Jew, with the emphasis on \u201cas it is for you so it is for the proselyte before the Lord.\u201d When man stands before God, he stands exposed, without cover. There is no effect of socio-economic class. Standing before God erases man-made divisions that distinguish people. Before God, all are equal.\nAs a result, \u201cThere shall be one law and one ordinance for you and the proselyte who resides [with you].\u201d God\u2019s demands of man are not geared to the elite of society, nor are they meant for the weaker and less established layers of society. The same laws apply to everyone, whether someone was born Jewish or chose to join the Jewish nation.\nThis principle leads us to examine the unusual concept of conversion to Judaism. Nations are usually defined by their ethnic origin, language, shared culture, and geographical area. Therefore, joining a nation is not a matter of ritual or obligation. It happens as someone gradually becomes assimilated into the nation, sometimes over the course of several generations.\nConversely, the Jewish nation, with its common ethnic origins dating back to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, accepts people with a clearly determined ritual, centered on taking on the Jewish faith and obligations to accept Jewish norms, meaning the Torah\u2019s commandments.\nWhat is the meaning behind this distinction? One can ask this differently: If there were to be so many \u201cgerim\u201d that they become the majority of the Jewish nation, would it still be the same nation? Indeed, the ger does not go through a process of assimilation. Rather, he or she joins the Jewish people in a single ceremony. What then defines the Jewish people as a \u201cnation\u201d?\nThe answer to this is that ethnic origin is not the central fact that defines the Jewish nation. Judaism is not a race. Judaism is an idea, a message, or more accurately, a covenant between man and God. Way back in history, more than 3,000 years ago, a group of people who were mostly \u2013 not solely \u2013 descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob stood at the foot of Mount Sinai and entered into a covenant with God. This covenant was based on mutual responsibility and full partnership in \u201ctikkun olam,\u201d repairing the world.\nA person who is not born Jewish can join the Jewish nation if he or she declares their commitment to that same covenant. Race is irrelevant. People can have any ethnic origin and the culture in which they are raised is equally irrelevant. The only thing that matters is: Do they accept Jewish ideals? Are they willing to accept the Jewish worldview and its implications? Are they willing to take on the role of partnering with God in repairing the world? Do they accept and fulfill the commandments of the Torah that stem from this?\nThe idea of a conversion that does not include acceptance of Jewish faith and the commandments that faith entails is a contradiction in terms. If the Jewish nation were defined as all other nations \u2013 according to ethnic origin, language, culture, and geography \u2013 one could not join it in a single ceremony; and if the Jewish nation is defined, uniquely, by this covenant, Jewish ideas, and its historic role \u2013 one can join it in a single ceremony. But the ceremony would have to entail joining this covenant, this idea, and taking on this role. Any path that tries to cut corners is therefore invalid.\nThe writer is the rabbi of the Western Wall and Holy Sites.",

        "raw_content": "&nbsp October 15, 2002\nWayne Jernigan, Esq.\nPhillip L. Hartley, Esq.\nCory O. Kirby, Esq.\nHarben & Hartley\nDear Messrs. Jernigan, Hartley & Kirby:\nThis refers to Act No. 435 (2002), which provides the redistricting plan for the Marion County School District in Marion County, Georgia, submitted to the Attorney General pursuant to Section 5 of the Voting Rights Act, 42 U.S.C. 1973c. We received your response to our July 1, 2002, request for additional information on August 16, 2002; supplemental information was received through October 1, 2002.\nWe have carefully considered the information you have provided, as well as census data, comments and information from other interested parties, and other information, including the school district's previous submissions. As discussed further below, I cannot conclude that the school district's burden under Section 5 has been sustained in this instance. Therefore, on behalf of the Attorney General, I must object to the school district's 2002 redistricting plan.\nThe school district is governed by a five-member board. Voters elect five school board members to four-year, staggered terms from single-member districts. This method of electing the board of education was adopted in 1986 and received Section 5 preclearance that year. The districting plan adopted at that time serves as the benchmark to evaluate whether the 2002 plan withstands scrutiny under Section 5.\nAccording to the 2000 Census, the Marion County School District, coterminous with Marion County, Georgia, has a total population of 7,144, of whom 2,425 (33.9%) are black persons. The voting age population is 5,119, of whom 1,617 (31.6%) are black persons. As of September 9, 2002, there were 3,863 active registered voters, of whom 1,302 (33.7%) were black. The 2000 Census indicates that there are three districts under the benchmark plan, Districts 1, 4, and 5, in which black persons are a majority of the voting age population: District 1 has a black voting age population of 60.1 percent, District 4 has a black voting age population of 57.7 percent, and District 5 has a black voting age population of 55.1 percent. During the past decade, black voters have demonstrated the ability to elect candidates of choice in Districts 1 and 4.\nIn contrast, the proposed 2002 redistricting plan contains only two districts in which black persons are a majority of the voting age population. District 1 retains a significant black population percentage, District 4 drops to a bare black majority of both the total (52.1%) and the voting age (50.7%) populations, and District 5 is no longer a majority black district as the black voting age population percentage decreases to 36.0 percent.\nOur statistical analysis implies that elections in Marion County are marked by a pattern of racially polarized voting, in which white and black voters do not usually provide significant support to candidates supported by the other community. Within in the context of such electoral behavior, the significant reduction in black voting strength in District 4 would necessarily entail a material reduction in the ability of black voters to elect candidates of choice under the proposed plan.\nWe recognize that the benchmark plan is severely malapportioned, with Districts 1, 4, and 5 being the most underpopulated, and that the black population percentage, on a county-wide basis, has dropped seven points. Accordingly, our analysis establishes that it is not possible to remedy the existing malapportionment and still retain three black population majority districts. While the loss of a third district that is majority black in population appears to be unavoidable, the loss of a second district in which the black voters can elect candidates of choice is not.\nAlthough the plan drops the number of viable minority districts by one, the school board contends that this was necessary as a result of the confluence of the malapportionment and the drop in the county's black population from 1990, which made the result inevitable. If a retrogressive redistricting plan is submitted, the jurisdiction seeking preclearance of such a plan bears the burden of demonstrating that a less-retrogressive plan cannot reasonably be drawn. Supplemental Guidance Concerning Redistricting and Retrogression Under Section 5 of the Voting Rights Act, 66 Fed. Reg. 5411 (Jan. 18, 2001). Where the jurisdiction asserts that a non-retrogressive plan is not possible in light of one-person, one vote guarantees or other constitutional limitations, we look to see if an non-retrogressive alternative is feasible and, in certain instances, may develop illustrative plans as part our analysis. Id. at 5413.\nHere, our analysis, which included the preparation of such an illustrative plan, establishes that the significant reduction in the black voting age population percentage in District 4, and the likely resulting retrogressive effect on the ability of black voters to elect a candidate of choice to two seats on the board, was neither inevitable nor required by any constitutional or legal imperative. Illustrative plans demonstrate that it is possible to maintain the black voting age population in District 1 without causing a retrogressive effect and still meet the school district's stated redistricting criteria.\nThe ability to devise a plan that does not eliminate a second district in which black voters can continue to elect candidates of their choice and also complies with traditional redistricting principles establishes that the reductions in black voting strength resulting from implementation of the proposed plan were not unavoidable. Accordingly, the school district has failed to meet its burden of demonstrating that the proposed plan does not have a retrogressive effect.\nUnder Section 5 of the Voting Rights Act, a jurisdiction seeking to implement proposed changes affecting voting, such as a redistricting plan, must establish that, in comparison with the status quo, the change does not \"lead to a retrogression\" in the position of minority voters with respect to the \"effective exercise of the electoral franchise.\" See Beer v. United States, 425 U.S. 130, 141 (1976). If the proposed plan materially reduces the ability of minority voters to elect candidates of their choice to a level less than what they enjoyed under the benchmark plan, preclearance must be denied. State of Georgia v. Ashcroft, 195 F. Supp. 2d 25, 77 (D.D.C. 2002).\nIn light of the considerations discussed above, I cannot conclude that your burden of showing that the submitted change does not have a discriminatory effect has been sustained in this instance. Therefore, on behalf of the Attorney General, I must object to the submitted redistricting plan. We note that under Section 5 you have the right to seek a declaratory judgment from the United States District Court for the District of Columbia that the proposed changes have neither the purpose nor will have the effect of denying or abridging the right to vote on account of race, color, or membership in a language minority group. See 28 C.F.R. 51.44. In addition, you may request that the Attorney General reconsider the objection. See 28 C.F.R. 51.45. However, until the objection is withdrawn or a judgment from the District of Columbia Court is obtained, the change continue to be legally unenforceable. Clark v. Roemer, 500 U.S. 646 (1991); 28 C.F.R. 51.10.\nIf you have questions on these matters, you should call Ms. Maureen Riordan (202-353-2087), an attorney in the Voting Section. Refer to file No. 2002-2643 in any response to this letter so that your correspondence will be channeled properly.",

        "raw_content": "\u201cI\u2019m like a counselor,\u201d she said of her position at St. Pius. \u201cI take time to listen to the students.\u201d\nFrom 42 students in 1956, all freshmen and sophomores, St. Pius has grown to educate now an average of some 400 students in ninth through 12th grades. It opened as a one-story building on a 17-acre tract in the countryside and has expanded over the years.\nIn the early years of the school, the convent played an important role. Almost half of the faculty were members of the Sisters of Charity of Leavenworth.\nBefore St. Pius X High School was built, there was no Catholic high school between the Missouri River and St. Joseph.\nA Catholic high school was necessary to the Northland, Verbeck explained, because education involves more than knowledge. It includes developing character and instilling values.\n\u201cAll students are getting theology here,\u201d Verbeck said. \u201cIt\u2019s especially important for teenagers who might not get to church on Sunday.\u201d\nVerbeck, a 1946 graduate of Bishop Ward High School in Kansas City, Kan., remembers when St. Pius opened.\n\u201cIt was all country here,\u201d she said. \u201cThere were very few houses nearby.\u201d\nSt. Pius is still the only Catholic high school in the Northland, but the Sisters of Charity of Leavenworth who taught at the school have been gone for almost 30 years.\nThe Sisters gradually moved out of the convent to retire or serve in other missions. Verbeck is the only one who remains.\n\u201cThe teenagers keep me young and hoppin\u2019,\u201d Verbeck said.\nShe is pleased that the convent that housed her and other Sisters of Charity of Leavenworth is becoming an arts and activities center for the students she cares so much about.\nAlready more than $4.8 million has been raised, and renovations to the convent are nearly complete. Of the $7 million, $5.5 million will be used to build a sports complex and $1.5 million will pay for renovations to the convent.\nMusic and art students now are enjoying new classroom space in the former convent.\nAthletes will have to wait a little longer, until 2020, for the new sports complex to open.\nFunds have been used to purchase 45 wooded acres about a half mile south of the school to build cross country trails, a soccer practice field, tennis courts and softball and baseball fields for St. Pius athletes who now have none of their own.\n\u201cHaving so many sports all in one place will boost school spirit,\u201d said Jack Lewis, 17, a junior and member of the cross country team.\nCurrently, cross country runners must train off site, avoiding traffic on city streets. They often can be seen running single file around the school on Davidson Road and on sidewalks and back roads.\nThe school\u2019s tennis players practice on the four courts at Old Pike Country Club in Gladstone.\nTo host a meet, they must find courts available, such as at those at other high schools.\n\u201cWe never have a home court advantage,\u201d said Abbie Webb, 16, a sophomore and member of the girls tennis team. \u201cWe never have our own courts that we\u2019re familiar and comfortable with.\u201d\nWith Pius sports competitions scattered throughout the city, Jack and Abbie said few people \u2014 other than parents of players \u2014 attend their events. School officials expect that to change when the new complex opens. It will be located in a tract of land between North Holmes Street and Northeast Davidson Road, with Northeast 39th Terrace to the north.\n\u201cEverything in the same place will help attract more fans,\u201d said Melanie Martin, advancement director and mother of a Pius tennis player. \u201cWe can have a tennis match and a softball game at the same time, for example.\u201d\nCurrently, before practice begins, those who play tennis, soccer, softball and baseball must spend as much as 30 minutes driving to a site, such as the A.J. Wilson Sports Complex on North Brighton Avenue about nine miles from the school. At times, baseball practice has been held in the parking lot if a field was not available.\nThough Abbie and Jack are excited about the new sports complex, they\u2019ll probably not get to use it before they graduate. But Pius athletes, parents and coaches appreciate what the complex means to the future of school sports.\n\u201cNew courts will give them more playing time,\u201d said James Thornburg, tennis coach and U.S. history teacher. \u201cAnd we can host tennis matches and tournaments here.\u201d\nEight tennis courts will allow more students to be on the team, too, Thornburg said. Although interest in tennis is high, he must limit the size of the team now because players have only four courts to practice on, and they are not in walking distance.\nWith tennis courts less than a mile from school, students can walk to them if necessary rather than depending on a ride.\nArt and music students walk to their new facilities, too, but theirs is a quick jaunt across the school parking lot.\nThe art classroom is more like a studio, said Toni Hess, art teacher and a 1991 Pius graduate.\n\u201cIt\u2019s way different from what we had,\u201d Hess said. \u201cWe have windows facing north with better natural light, a kiln for the first time, a place for stand-up easels for drawing, a trough for a sink.\u201d\nHess teaches 130 students in classes ranging from fundamentals of art to Advanced Placement to independent study.\n\u201cThe most exciting new thing is the outdoor classroom,\u201d Hess said. \u201cStudents can sit outside and draw.\u201d\nThe outdoor area will be adjacent to the former convent and built like an amphitheater with a lecture platform and tiered seating. Construction is scheduled to start this month and projected to be ready later this semester.\nMick Witherow, a general contractor and a 1984 graduate, is renovating the convent. Witherow remembers when the convent was home to teachers and administrators from the Sisters of Charity of Leavenworth, including the principal at that time, Sister Rita Smith.\n\u201cThis is a great opportunity to revive this building,\u201d he said.\nThe convent was built in 1958, two years after the high school opened its doors, and the Sisters lived there until the early 1990s.\nWitherow respects that history and has kept it in mind as he renovates the 22,000-square-foot building.\n\u201cI\u2019m a sentimentalist,\u201d Witherow said. \u201cI want to preserve and continue the legacy of what the Sisters started.\u201d\nHe has honored the Sisters\u2019 memory by salvaging what can be re-used for the new occupants. The old laundry room sink, for example, has been installed in the art room. All the convent doors have been refinished and used again.\nThe convent will become the Fred and Rosalie Ross Fine Arts and Activity Center, named for the parents of Fred Ross Jr., a 1976 graduate who donated $1 million for the school in 2016 \u2014 the largest single donation in the school\u2019s history. He and his 11 siblings are all graduates of St. Pius.\nConvent renovations began in May. Classrooms for broadcasting, art and vocal music are on the ground level. The first floor will house the Catholic Radio Network and its 10 stations, relocating from Excelsior Springs, and the second floor will be used for banquets, class reunions and meetings.\nVerbeck has been witness to all kinds of changes throughout the years. She worked at the school as secretary to the principal from 1972 to 1981 and from 1984 to 2007; she was a secretary to four principals. She also supervised the cafeteria and study hall, managed the bookstore and the office and compiled a state report.\nOver the years, she has listened to countless students who talk freely with her. The school principal, Joe Monachino Jr., a 1981 graduate, was one of those.\n\u201cI\u2019ve known him since he was 9,\u201d she said.\nPlans for the cross country trails, the tennis courts, soccer practice fields and baseball and softball fields are only the beginning. As donations continue to come in, the campaign will enter a second phase with improvements to the football field and track.\nA fine arts center and a new sports complex are more than a nod to safety and convenience for Pius students. They acknowledge the aptitude of the students with facilities to match their talents: more than 70 percent of recent graduates earned academic or athletic scholarships.\nVerbeck speaks with pride about the Pius students.\n\u201cThey are so generous with their time,\u201d she said. \u201cThey love to serve the poor.\u201d\n1500 N.E. 42nd Terrace, Kansas City\n816-453-3450; stpiusxhs-kc.com/\nTo contribute to the campaign, click on Warrior Pride Capital Campaign\nThis former convent is being transformed into the Fine Arts and Activity Center for students at St. Pius X High School, 1500 N.E. 42nd Terrace.

        "raw_content": "Faye Arcand is a freelance writer living in the South Okanagan\nI\u2019m feeling rather disjointed this week. So many thoughts have my brain racing in a million different directions.\nFirst off, let me tell you that I\u2019m not a big fan of politics, it\u2019s too divisive. I prefer to see people as individuals with different ideas and values, some I agree with and others I don\u2019t. Politics, both here and in the U.S., have been front and centre like never before. Many issues have been polarizing while at the same time generating great discussions and debates.\nThis last year has seen such a huge swing in social consciousness with things like the #MeToo and Time\u2019s Up movements but one thing I think we can all agree on (or I hope we can), is the need for mutual respect of our fellow human beings \u2014 regardless of political, religious or social standing.\nRespect means having regard for the other person\u2019s right to be who they are and believe what they want to believe. Recently it seems like respect has been lost in the mainstream and needs to be brought back to the forefront. There\u2019s confusion over the idea of judgement passed simply because of political or social ideologies. To me it\u2019s ludicrous, to assume a whole group is evil or wrong because they\u2019re called conservatives or liberals \u2014 or whatever. It makes me shake my head in wonder.\nRelated: Auntie Says: Mind your own business\nAnother thing, I keep hearing is that men are now afraid of complimenting a woman for fear of being accused of sexism or they\u2019re anxious that a kiss they gave a girlfriend 20 years ago could now be misconstrued as assault. Look up the definition of assault to see if your behaviour applies. The thing is that if you actually have questions then you may already have your answer. Ask yourself: if that same behaviour was perpetrated on your sister, mother, auntie, granny, wife or girlfriend, what would you think? To me that\u2019s always a good measure and yes we\u2019re all responsible for our actions \u2014 past and present.\nAnd let\u2019s consider the old \u2018boys will be boys\u2019 attitude. The shift in voice and power will become more equal over time and this is a good thing. In my opinion, its long overdue. Change will be met with resistance and obstacles, but it will happen. It\u2019s started already.\nRelated: Auntie Says: The tradition of the sunset party continues\nThe idea of boys will be boys perpetuates the notion that males will, and do, engage in risky and sometimes hateful behaviour because it\u2019s natural and instinctive to their gender and therefore they don\u2019t need to be responsible. What a load of crap and in my opinion it really doesn\u2019t give boys much credit for being able to use their brain or recognize that they do know how to make good decisions.\nBoys and men are not the enemy and they\u2019re not stupid or so impulsive that they can\u2019t control themselves. We all have choice and the \u2018boys will be boys\u2019 mentality really is an insult to them. More respect needs to be demanded by boys because they\u2019re being pigeonholed as impulsive brutes.\nThen there\u2019s the whole thing about sexual misconduct at parties, work, or just life in general. Remember, no means no. Consent is required. Whether male or female. Whether 15 or 50.\nPhew. So much to think about and consider. So many discussion to have. We live in exciting times.\nFaye Arcand is a freelance writer who lives in the South Okanagan. Reach her at faye.arcand@icloud.com or www.fayeearcand.com.",

        "raw_content": "When the word \u2018prenuptial\u2019 is brought up, it tends to bring about ill feelings. Feelings such as your fianc\u00e9 is already planning the divorce before the marriage has happened or feeling that your fianc\u00e9 is not that committed to you and on and on. It is true prenuptial agreements often get a bad rap and do not always have the best intentions behind them, but they are actually more common than you think. In particular, when it comes to second marriages and blending families, prenuptials have become fairly common. A 2015 report from Pew Research Center indicated that 16 percent of children are living with a stepparent, stepsibling or half-sibling. When blending families you and your fianc\u00e9 need to make sure your children from previous marriages will be protected should this second marriage come to an end. The prenup allows you to allocate where the money goes and help protect you from debts.\nA prenuptial agreement details the disposition of current and future assets in the event of a divorce or upon the death of a spouse. Money has a way of stirring up emotions and rivalries, so it is best to head off any future problems before they can occur.\nWhen developing a prenuptial agreement, a few things to consider are:\nEach spouse must fully disclose all of their assets and debts. Particularly if this is a second marriage and you are older, you have both most likely established separate financial lives. As your lives are combined, you both need to know exactly how much the other earns, what each of you owns and owes.\nDiscuss what \u201cfair\u201d means to each of you. Most of the time one partner will be entering the marriage with more assets than the other, so determining what is fair to each of you is crucial.\nDetermine which assets will be combined and which will be kept separate.\nWill you each pay for your own children\u2019s care or will you pay for everything out of one pool of money? This is especially critical when children with special needs are involved.\nWho will pay for routine expenses like clothes, school, and extracurricular activities? Will the funds come from blended resources or individual?\nDecide how you will deal with financial imbalances if one extended family has more resources than the other does.\nThink about future big-ticket items like buying cars for your kids and determining how college savings will be funded.\nIn the event of your death, how will your life insurance be distributed? More than likely, you will want your children from a previous marriage to receive at least some portion of the money and you will also want to make sure your current wife and any children from your current marriage.\nAdditionally, you want to consider your estate plan. It is important to ensure any inheritance received goes to the right people. If these things are not clearly laid out beforehand, it can create an irreparable division among family members.\nDo not forget about retirement. You each need to make saving for retirement a top priority. Will you fund individually or jointly or both? Retirement funds often become a hot topic during divorce proceedings.\nFinally, a prenuptial agreement will help protect you against certain debts. You can specify which debts belong to whom and navigate through the confusion. The prenup can be written to protect your spouse from your debts and vice versa. You do not want your credit to be impacted from someone else\u2019s mistakes and you do not want to be paying someone else\u2019s bills.\nPrenuptial agreements can serve as a roadmap for the ways you will share expenses and responsibilities. If you are already married but do not have a prenuptial agreement, it is not too late. You can still file a post-nuptial agreement. Contact Kevin Hickey Law Partners to help you develop your prenuptial agreement or post-nuptial agreement. Let our expertise help you determine the best agreement for you and your family. In order for a prenuptial agreement to hold up in court, an attorney is necessary.",

He earned Bachelor of Architecture and Bachelor of Science in Environmental Design degrees from Ball State University in 1988, which included an overseas study program, \u201cPolyark\u201d and an internship at Browning Day Mullins Dierdorf in Indianapolis, Indiana. These opportunities expanded his practical training. After completing his education at Ball State with a outstanding thesis award, he moved to northeastern Pennsylvania to continue his training.\nBefore starting his own practice in Oct.1999, he spent 10 years at Hemmler + Camayd Architects in Scranton as a project architect for numerous projects, including the NatWest Office Building at Montage and the Federal Courthouse in Scranton. During the last few years at the firm, he joined the firm management as an associate.\nWith encouragement and help from James Rogers, a fellow architect and owner of James Rogers Architects, Inc., Matsui started his own practice. He has collaborated with Mr. Rogers on many projects including two large scale Japanese style residential projects.\nMatsui has been focusing his practice on energy-efficient residential and small commercial projects in Northeastern Pennsylvania and does not hesitate to collaborate with green building-certified energy consultants and local contractors to expand his knowledge and practice. He has also established close working relationships with local builders and craftsmen in an effort to reunite architects and builders and streamline the design and building process. The benefits of collaboration are cost control and provide additional opportunities for Matsui to offer design build and construction services to his clients.\nBall State University - Bachelor of Architecture and Bachelor of Science in Environmental Design\nMinor in Art, Specialized in oil painting\nProfessional Affiliation : American Institute of Architects ( Former President of NEPA Chapter of AIA)\nNational Council of Architectural Registration Board Certified\nMember of National Home Builders Association\nVice President of Abington Soccer Club Travel Division",

        "title": "lasfsinc.info - The LASFS Coat of Arms",
        "raw_content": "The LASFS Coat of Arms\nby Fred Patten, based on information from Forrest J Ackerman, Rick Sneary, and Bruce Pelz -- and from Forry's collection of LASFS fanzines and general s-f newsletters from 1940 and 1941 that I read in 1976 while researching the Worldcon's history. I hope I have remembered everything correctly. Any corrections will be appreciated, and further details should be found in the fanzines of 1940 and 1941 and added to this.\nWhile the LASFL was a Chapter of the Science Fiction League , the SFL's emblem was the club's emblem. This was shown clearly in full color on the covers of Wonder Stories of May and December, 1934 and on the SFL's enameled membership pin. (Forry Ackerman was still wearing this regularly through the 1980s and 1990s. I assume that many more LASFen had the pin in 1940.)\nWhen the club seceded from the SFL and declared itself the independent Los Angeles Science Fantasy Society at its meeting of March 27, 1940, it sent prior notices to all the fannish newszines and major fanzines of the day, like Fantasy Fiction Field and Fantasy Times, describing in detail such trivia as why the club chose the name Science Fantasy Society instead of Science Fiction Society, etc. At or shortly after this time, the LASFS announced a fandom-wide contest to design a new emblem for the reorganized club. Obviously the club's motto \"De Profundis Ad Astra\" already existed since it was required to be included. Only one entry was received, from Roy V. Hunt of Denver's Colorado Fantasy Society, in 1940 or 1941. But it was so complete that the LASFS approved it without any change. Looking at the LASFS coat of arms from the top down:\nThe 1934 badge of the Science Fiction League is shown in the crest, small but in full detail except for the name \"Science Fiction League,\" which was removed from the rim of the circle.\nThe four stars in the chief are for the LASFS's origin as Chapter 4 of the Science Fiction League.\nThe field is divided into thirds.\nThe first two thirds are charged with a microscope and a spaceship in deep space, which symbolize the club's motto De Profundis (from the depths, microscopically small) Ad Astra (to the stars, macroscopically large). They also represent \"science fiction.\"\nThe demons stirring a bowl in the lower third are from the logo of the Weird Tales Club, designed by Hannes Bok. Although the SFL was falling apart in 1940, there were other national and international s-f clubs that the LASFS was and wanted to remain a member of. Including the WTC logo as a charge in the LASFS coat of arms signifies the LASFS' willingness to work with or join other s-f organizations. (The LASFS bought a membership in the Worldcon for years, back when memberships were only one or two dollars.) It also represents the club's interest in fantasy.\nThe single star at the center of the coat of arms stood for the LASFS' membership in the Science Fictioneers, a club started by Frederik Pohl's Super Science Stories to replace the moribund SFL. (I think the LASFS was Chapter 1 of the Science Fictioneers.) The Science Fictioneers did not have an emblem of its own and may not have lasted past 1940, although the magazine did.\nThe motto at the base of the coat of arms is the LASFS' \"De Profundis Ad Astra.\"\nClick here to see a large image of the B&W LASFS coat of arms.\nClick here to see a large image of a colorized LASFS coat of arms (based on Tim Merrigan's colorization).\nColorizing the LASFS Coat of Arms\nby Fred Patten (reprinted from APA-L #2254)\nWhen I had the LASFS coat of arms made into paperweights umpty years ago, I was authorized to figure out what colors it should be instead of just black & white.... My colors were approved. Tim Merrigan and others made their own variations without bothering to follow the approved colors exactly.\nThe crest is in the Science Fiction League colors, which can be checked on Wonder Stories.\nThe Weird Tales Club log is in green and brown\nEverything else is in black and gold.\nThe spaceship's flames in red may be prettier, but it is not what the club approved.\nThe Marketing Committee's Version\nIn the early mid- 2000's, Michael Bloom took a copy of the coat of arms version then in use on lasfs.org, made a number of modifications in Photoshop to make it look cleaner for use on a T-shirt, and created T shirts for himself and several other club members. In April of 2006, Arlene Satin saw him wearing one, and asked him where he got the T-shirt. When he told her he'd made it, she asked if she could have a copy of the artwork, and this version has become the official version used by the LASFS marketing committee.\nA Science Fiction League membership card.\nThe Science Fiction League's coat of arms\nHazel's Picture Gallery\nCopyright Chaz Baden 2001",

        "title": "Ducks' Josh Manson hopes to follow in dad's NHL footsteps - Los Angeles Times",
        "raw_content": "Ducks' Josh Manson hopes to follow in dad's NHL footsteps\nDucks defenseman Josh Manson, left, trades punches with Colorado's Daniel Maggio during the first period of an exhibition game on Sept. 22. (Chris Carlson / Associated Press)\nGreetings from Dallas, where the Ducks, who were inexplicably flat in a 2-0 loss at St. Louis on Thursday, will complete a back-to-back sequence by facing the Stars on Friday at American Airlines Center.\nThe Ducks will have at least one lineup change against the Stars, out of necessity. With defenseman Mark Fistric ruled out because of an upper-body injury, defenseman Josh Manson is expected to make his NHL debut. Coach Bruce Boudreau also said that left wing Patrick Maroon, injured in the third game of the season and expected to be out a month, is healing quickly and will be a game-time decision. But it's \"more probable\" that Maroon will return on Sunday at Colorado, Boudreau said.\nIf Manson's name sounds familiar, there's a reason. He's the son of former NHL tough guy Dave \"Charlie\" Manson, who ranks 13th on the all-time penalty minutes list with 2,792. Dave Manson, also a defenseman, on Friday was named interim coach of the Prince Albert Raiders of the Western Hockey League, the junior team he played for.\nJosh played at Northeastern University and was drafted by the Ducks in the sixth round (160th overall) of the 2011 entry draft. He signed with them in March and played nine games with Norfolk (Va.) of the American Hockey League last season. He was recalled earlier this week.\nThe natural question is whether Josh plays like his dad, who was among the league's most feared fighters during a 16-season NHL career.\n\"I don't know if I'm that aggressive. He played pretty tough,\" Josh said after the Ducks' optional morning skate. \"But I'm going to do the best I can to replicate his game because he was pretty successful in his career.\"\nJosh Manson, who's listed at 6 foot 3 and 217 pounds, was born in October 1991, while his dad played for the Blackhawks. Dave Manson played for the Stars in the 1999-2000 and 2001-02 seasons, and Josh has memories of visiting the American Airlines Center and Reunion Arena, which preceded it.\n\"We've traveled everywhere including here. I've been in this rink a couple times. I think the last time was when they were in the playoffs against New Jersey,\" he said of the 1999-2000 Stanley Cup final. \"So it's been a while but it's a good time to be back, I think.\"\nDucks Coach Bruce Boudreau, who knows Dave Manson, said he sees some of the father's game in the son's game.\n\"He's a mobile, right-handed defenseman that can play physical like his dad,\" Boudreau said. \"Simple as far as just getting the puck and moving the puck. He had a good camp. He had a good end of the season after college last year in Norfolk. We've got a lot of faith in him. We think he's going to be a good player and we'll see how he goes tonight.\"\nAsked if he felt old coaching the sons of players he played with or against, Boudreau laughed. \"I just feel old sometimes,\" said Boudreau, who is 59.",

        "title": "Law Web: Whether eviction decree can be passed against tenant if he fails to pay water charges?",
        "raw_content": "Whether eviction decree can be passed against tenant if he fails to pay water charges?\nBy notice dated 4-6-2001, demand of revised water charges for the period from 1-8-2000 to 31-5-2001 was made. The notices demanding water charges were received on 9-12-2000 and 2-3-2001. Even if these two dates i.e. 9-12-2000 and 2-3-2001 are taken as due dates, there is default on the part of the tenant for aggregate period of three months and, therefore, the landlord was entitled to issue quit notice to the tenant.\nRavindra D. Ahirkar Vs. Ravikishore S/o Ramkisanji Pashine and Anr.\nA.B. Chaudhari, J.\n1. Rule returnable forthwith. Heard finally by consent of the parties.\n2. Learned Counsel for the petitioner made the following submission before me,\n(1) Section 15(2) of the Maharashtra Rent Control Act, 1999 does not permit default in payment of water charges as a ground for eviction of a tenant as the amount of water charges cannot be the constituent of the permitted increases. The notice dated 4-6-2001 claiming arrears of water charges for the period from 1-8-2000 till 31-5-2001 is defective because there is a claim in respect of future demand for water charges and Section 15 of the Act contemplates only the amounts due.\n(2) That the finding recorded by the Appellate Court holding that the petitioner/tenant has acted in violation of Section 16(1)(b) of the Act is incorrect and illegal because the petitioner sold cloth cut pieces in his shop and that is integral part of business of tailoring.\n3. Per contra, learned Counsel for the respondents made the following submissions:\n(1) Section 15(2) will have to be read with Section 7(8) and Section 12 of the Maharashtra Rent Control Act, 1999. A harmonious construction of these provisions read with Section 15 of the Act will show that water charges/revised water charges by the Corporation is a part of permitted increases and, therefore, Section 15(2) of the Act enables the landlord to issue quit notice.\n(2) By notice dated 4-6-2001, demand of revised water charges for the period from 1-8-2000 to 31-5-2001 was made. The notices demanding water charges were received on 9-12-2000 and 2-3-2001. Even if these two dates i.e. 9-12-2000 and 2-3-2001 are taken as due dates, there is default on the part of the tenant for aggregate period of three months and, therefore, the landlord was entitled to issue quit notice to the tenant.\n(3) It is not disputed position that in order to carry out the business of selling cloth cut pieces, the petitioner tailor-tenant constructed a permanent structure in the form of mezzanine floor in the tenanted premises without consent of the landlord in writing and in clear cut violation of the building construction rules of the Corporation for which respondent received notice for unauthorised construction. Learned Counsel for the respondents, therefore, prayed for dismissal of the writ petition.\n4. I have gone through the impugned judgments made by the trial Court and the Appellate Court and having heard Counsel for the rival parties, I find it profitable to reproduce Section 15 of the Act.\n15. No ejectment ordinarily to be made if tenant pays or is ready and willing to pay standard rent and permitted increase. - (1) A landlord shall not be entitled to the recovery of possession of any premises so long as the tenant pays, or is ready and willing to pay, the amount of the standard rent and permitted increases, if any, and observes and performs the other conditions of the tenancy, insofar as they are consistent with the provisions of this Act.\n(2) No suit for recovery of possession shall be instituted by a landlord against the tenant on the ground of non-payment of the standard rent or permitted increases due, until the expiration of ninety days next after notice in writing of the demand of the standard rent or permitted increases has been served upon the tenant in the manner provided in Section 106 of the Transfer of Property Act, 1882.\n(3) No decree for eviction shall be passed by the Court in any suit for recovery of possession on the ground of arrears of standard rent and permitted increases if, within a period of ninety days from the date of service of the summons of the suit, the tenant pays or tenders in Court the standard rent and permitted increases then due together with simple interest on the amount of arrears at fifteen per cent per annum; and thereafter continues to pay or tenders in Court regularly such standard rent and permitted increases till the suit is finally decided and also pays cost of the suit as directed by the Court.\n(4) Pending the disposal of any suit, the Court may, out of any amount paid or tendered by the tenant, pay to the landlord such amount towards the payment of rent or permitted increases due to him as the Court thinks fit.\n5. Perusal of the above provisions show that Sub-section (1) in addition to the standard rent and permitted increases also speaks of the terms and conditions agreed upon between the landlord and the tenant. But then the penal provision is to be found in Sub-section (2) which does not provide for the terms and conditions in the agreement between landlord and tenant. However, for interpreting provision of Section 15(2) of the Act one will have to look to the other provisions of the Act. It is essential to have harmonious construction of the provisions of this Act. Section 7(8) read with Section 12 of the Act are reproduced below:\nSection 7(8). \"Permitted increase \" means an increase in rent permitted under the provisions of this Act.\n12. Increase in rent on account of payment of rates, etc. - (1) Where a landlord is required to pay to Government or to any local authority or statutory authority in respect of any premises any fresh rate, cess, charges, tax, land assessment, ground rent of land or any other levy on lands and building, or increase in rate, cess, charges, tax, land assessment, ground rent of land or any other levy on lands and buildings, he shall, notwithstanding anything contained in any other provisions of this Act but save as otherwise expressly provided in any other law for the time being in force, be entitled to make an increase in the rent of such premises : Provided that, the increase in rent shall not exceed the amount of any such rate, cess, charges, tax land assessment, ground rent of land or any other levy on lands and buildings, as the case may be.\n(2) Where the rent is inclusive of charges for electricity and water and the landlord is required to pay any increase in these charges in respect of any premises, he shall be entitled to make an increase in the rent of such premises by an amount not exceeding the additional amount payable by him in respect of such premises on account of such increase.\n(3) The amount of the increase in rent recoverable from each tenant under Sub-sections (1) and (2) shall bear the same proportion as the rent payable by him in respect of his premises bears to the total amount of any such rate, cess, charges, tax, land assessment, ground rent of land or any other levy on lands and building, or increase in electricity or water charges, as the case may be.\n6. Perusal of these provisions show that water charges/revised water charges have been treated by the legislature as a part of the rent. This appears to have been deliberately made by the legislature in order not to have loose end in the provision about inclusion of water charges/revised water charges into rent. Admittedly, rent can be increased and such increased rent would also fall in the category of permitted increases. Thus, I find that water charges/revised water charges become part of the rent and consequently the submission made by Advocate Shri Dhumale will have to be turned down.\n7. The notice dated 4-6-2001 issued by the landlord claiming water charges/revised water charges from the tenant is clearly for the period from 1-8-2000 to 31-5-2001 which is about a period of nine months. According to landlord the total amount due was Rs. 1040/- for this period against the tenant. The learned Counsel for the respondents submitted that this demand for water charges was served on the landlord on 9-12-2000 and 2-3-2001. Therefore, even if these two dates are taken into consideration to find out whether the amount of water charges are due or not, in my opinion, the same can be termed as amount due. Submission made by Advocate Shri Dhumale on this aspect therefore does not appeal to me. Now insofar as the construction of permanent structure, namely, the mezzanine floor is concerned, there is no dispute that the petitioner made the construction without the consent of the landlord. Section 16(1)(b) of the Act requires such consent in writing. It appears that the petitioner on his own made the said construction in violation of the building control rules and as a result the respondent landlord received a notice from the Corporation for violation of those rules. The construction of a mezzanine floor is obviously a permanent structure. Therefore, the case falls in the mischief of Section 16(1)(b) of the Act. Thus, on all these counts, the Appellate Court has rightly found that the petitioner/tenant was liable to be evicted. I, therefore, do not find any merit in the writ petition. The same is, therefore, dismissed.\nRule is discharged. No order as to costs.\nLabels: bombay high court, eviction decree, eviction of tenant, maharashtra rent control Act, permitted increase, rent law, tenant, water charges",

        "title": "Why China is a socialist country - China's theory is in line with Marx (but not Stalin) - Learning from China",
        "raw_content": "Why China is a socialist country - China's theory is in line with Marx (but not Stalin)\nDeng Xiaoping is famous for the saying 'it doesn't matter whether a cat is black or white provided it catches mice.' As I am an unashamed Dengite in economic theory the equivalent of this is that it is perfectly possible to understand China's socialist economy in terms of either Western or Marxist economic theory - an analysis in terms of both is given on this website at 'Deng Xiaoping and John Maynard Keynes'.\nThis reflects the fact that economics studies a material reality and to accurately factually analyse it is the most important issue. For this reason most articles on this website, and others which I write, don't bother to quote any economist they just study the facts - that is they don't bother to discuss whether the cat is black or white, they just focus on catching mice.\n\u200bBut posts on this website have created some discussion among readers of a socialist viewpoint who believe the myth that China's is a capitalist economy. This is the misunderstanding that constantly leads Western analysts to make fundamental mistakes regarding China's economic dynamics - a typical example of those errors, regularly updated, are collected together on this website at 'Wrong Analyses of China - Listed by Author and Date'.\nThis error arises among those of such a socialist viewpoint because they have a definition of socialism deriving from Stalin rather than Marx - as will be shown below. To clarify the issues for them this article is therefore a brief outline of the key foundations of China's economic theories and why they are entirely in line with Marx. Those who prefer to use Western categories can analyse China's socialist economy in those terms - as outlined in 'Deng Xiaoping and John Maynard Keynes' - and not bother to read this article. Those who prefer just to have accurate economic analyses, without being overly concerned with what framework they are put forward in, can ignore whether the cat is black or white and just study China's economy.\n\u200bChina's economic theory\nDeng Xiaoping as a Communist naturally explicitly formulated China\u2019s economic policy in Marxist terms - China\u2019s economic reform policies were seen as the integration of Marxism with the specific conditions in China. More precisely Deng stated: \u2018We were victorious in the Chinese revolution precisely because we applied the universal principles of Marxism-Leninism to our own realities.\u2019 (Deng, 28 August 1985) Consequently: \u2018Our principle is that we should integrate Marxism with Chinese practice and blaze a path of our own. That is what we call building socialism with Chinese characteristics.\u2019 (Deng, 21 August 1985)\nAuthors, including (Hsu, 1991), have contended that Deng\u2019s economic policies were not in accord with those of Marx. However while China\u2019s economic policies clearly differed from those of the USSR after the introduction of the First Five Year Plan in 1929, which introduced comprehensive planning and essentially total state ownership, it is clear that China\u2019s economic policies were in line with those indicated by Marx. Whether people wish to formulate Chinese economic policy in Western or Marxist terms may be left to them. What is most crucial is not the colour of the cat but whether it catches mice \u2013 that is, the practical policy conclusions drawn. This appendix therefore briefly shows that Deng\u2019s concepts in launching China\u2019s economic reform in in 1978 corresponded to Marx\u2019s.\nThe primary stage of socialism\nRegarding China\u2019s economic reform policies Deng noted, as stated in Marxist terms, that China was in the socialist and not the (higher) communist stage of development. Large scale development of the productive forces/output was the prerequisite before China could make the transition to a communist society: \u2018A Communist society is one in which there is no exploitation of man by man, there is great material abundance, and the principle of from each according to their ability, to each according to his needs is applied. It is impossible to apply that principle without overwhelming material wealth. In order to realise communism, we have to accomplish the tasks set in the socialist stage. They are legion, but the fundamental one is to develop the productive forces.\u2019 (Deng, 28 August 1985)\nMore precisely, in a characterisation maintained to the present, China was in the \u2018primary stage\u2019 of socialism, which was fundamental in defining policy: \u2018\u2018The Thirteenth National Party Congress will explain what stage China is in: the primary stage of socialism. Socialism itself is the first stage of communism, and here in China we are still in the primary stage of socialism \u2013 that is, the underdeveloped stage. In everything we do we must proceed from this reality, and all planning must be consistent with it.\u2019 (Deng, 29 August 1987)\nThe fundamental characterisations by Deng have been maintained to the present \u2013 thus for example in July 2011 President Hu Jintao stressed that \u2018China is still in the primary stage of socialism and will remain so for a long time to come\u2019 (Xinhua, 2011), while speaking to the UN premier Wen Jiabao noted \u2018Taken as a whole, China is still in the primary stage of socialism\u2019 (Xinhua, 2010). The conclusion flowing from this as noted by Hsu, was that: \u2018From this perspective, a serious error in the past was the leftist belief that China could skip the primary stage and practice full socialism immediately.\u2019 (Hsu, 1991, p. 11)\nThe conclusion of such a contrast between a primary socialist stage of development and the principle of a communist society (which, as noted by Deng above, was regulated by \u2018from each according to their ability to each according to each according to his needs\u2019) was that in the present 'socialist' period the principle was \u2018 to each according to their work\u2019: \u2018We must adhere to this socialist principle which calls for distribution according to the quantity and quality of an individual\u2019s work.\u2019 (Deng, 28 March 1978)\nIn Marxist theory, outlined by Marx in the opening chapter of Capital (Marx, 1867), economic distribution according to work/labour is the fundamental principle of commodity production \u2013 and a commodity necessarily implies a market. In this socialist period a market would therefore exist \u2013 hence the eventual Chinese terminology of a \u2018socialist market economy.\u2019 As presented by Deng Xiaoping and his successors above such Chinese analysis is highly compressed but clearly in line with Marx himself.\n\u200bMarx's analysis\nIt is clear Marx envisaged that the transition from capitalism to communism would be a prolonged one, noting in The Communist Manifesto: \u2018The proletariat will use its political supremacy to wrest, by degree, all capital from the bourgeoisie, to centralise all instruments of production in the hands of the State, i.e., of the proletariat organised as the ruling class; and to increase the total productive forces as rapidly as possible.\u2019 (Marx & Engels, 1848, p. 504)\nThe \u2018by degree\u2019 may noted \u2013 Marx therefore clearly envisaged a period during which state owned property and private property would exist. China\u2019s system, after Deng, of simultaneous existence of sectors of state and private ownership is therefore clearly more in line with Marx\u2019s conceptualisation than Stalin\u2019s introduction \u2018all at once\u2019 of essentially 100 per cent state ownership in 1929.\nRegarding Deng\u2019s formulations on communist society being regulated by \u2018to each according to their need\u2019 versus the primary stage of socialism regulated by \u2018each according to their work\u2019 Marx noted in the Critique of the Gotha Programme of the post-capitalist transition to a communist society: \u2018What we are dealing with here is a communist society, not as it has developed on its own foundations, but on the contrary, just as it emerges from capitalist society, which is thus in every respect, economically, morally, and intellectually, still stamped with the birth-marks of the old society from whose womb it emerges.\u2019 (Marx, 1875, p. 85)\nIn such a transition Marx outlined payment in society, and distribution of products and services, necessarily had to be 'according to work' even within the state owned sector of the economy:\u2018 Accordingly, the individual producer receives back from society - after the deductions have been made - exactly what he gives to it. What he has given to it is his individual quantum of labour. For example, the social working day consists of the sum of the individual hours of work; the individual labour time of the individual producer is the part of the social working day contributed by him, his share in it. He receives a certificate from society that he has furnished such-and-such an amount of labour (after deducting his labour for the common funds); and with this certificate, he draws from the social stock of means of consumption as much as the same amount of labour cost. The same amount of labour which he has given to society in one form, he receives back in another.\n\u2018Here obviously the same principle prevails as that which regulates the exchange of commodities, as far as this is exchange of equal values\u2026. as far as the distribution of the latter among the individual producers is concerned, the same principle prevails as in the exchange of commodity equivalents: a given amount of labour in one form is exchanged for an equal amount of labour in another form.\n\u2018Hence, equal right here is still in principle - bourgeois right\u2026 The right of the producers is proportional to the labour they supply; the equality consists in the fact that measurement is made with an equal standard, labour.\u2019 (Marx, 1875, p. 86)\nIn such a society inequality would necessarily still exist: \u2018one\u2026 is superior to another physically or mentally and so supplies more labour in the same time, or can labour for a longer time; and labour, to serve as a measure, must be defined by its duration or intensity, otherwise it ceases to be a standard of measurement. This equal right is an unequal right for unequal labour... it tacitly recognises the unequal individual endowment and thus the productive capacities of the workers as natural privileges. It is, therefore, a right of inequality in its content like every right. Right by its very nature can consist only as the application of an equal standard; but unequal individuals (and they would not be different individuals if they were not unequal) are measurable by an equal standard only insofar as they are made subject to an equal criterion, are taken from a certain side only, for instance, in the present case, are regarded only as workers and nothing more is seen in them, everything else being ignored. Besides, one worker is married, another not; one has more children than another, etc. etc.. Thus, given an equal amount of work done, and hence an equal share in the social consumption fund, one will in fact receive more than another, one will be richer than another, and so on. To avoid all these defects, right would have to be unequal rather than equal.\u2019 (Marx, 1875, pp. 86-87)\nMarx considered only after a prolonged transition would payment according to work be replaced with the ultimately desired goal, distribution of products according to members of society\u2019s needs.\n\u2018Right can never be higher than the economic structure of society and its cultural development which this determines.\n\u2018In a higher phase of communist society\u2026 after the productive forces have also increased with the all-around development of the individual, and all the springs of common wealth flow more abundantly - only then can the narrow horizon of bourgeois right be crossed in its entirety and society inscribe on its banners: From each according to his abilities, to each according to his needs!\u2019 (Marx, 1875, p. 87)\nIt is therefore clear that post-Deng policies in China were more in line with Marx\u2019s prescriptions than post-1929 Stalin policies in the USSR. Given the essentially 100 per cent state ownership of industry in China in 1978 'Zhuada Fangxiao' (keep the large, let go the small) \u2013 maintaining the large enterprises within the state sector and releasing the small ones to the non-state sector \u2013 together with the creation of a new private sector created an economic structure clearly more in line with that envisaged by Marx than the essentially 100 per cent state ownership in the USSR after 1929.\nDeng\u2019s insistence on the formula that in the transitional period reward would be \u2018according to work\u2019 and not \u2018according to need\u2019 was clearly in line with Marx\u2019s analyses. It is notable that in the USSR itself a number of economists opposed Stalin\u2019s post-1929 policies on the same or related grounds \u2013 including Buhkarin (Bukharin,1925) , Kondratiev (Kondratiev n.d.), and Preobrazhensky (Preobrazhensky, 1921-27). Their works were, however, almost unknown as these issues were \u2018resolved\u2019 by Stalin killing those economists who disagreed with him and banning their works, although several accounts have been published outside the USSR \u2013 see for example (Jasny, 1972) (Lewin, 1975). China\u2019s economic debates therefore preceded primarily with reference to China\u2019s conditions and Marx, and not any preceding debates in the USSR.\nIt is therefore clear that China\u2019s post-reform economic policy is in line with Marx\u2019s analysis of socialism and that, as stated in Chinese analysis, post-1929 Soviet policy departed from Marx\u2019s analysis \u2013 the argument that the converse is true, by Hsu and others, is invalid.\n\u200bChina's economic theory certainly differs from Stalin's - because it goes back to Marx.\nBukharin, N.

Retrieved February 2, 2012, from China Daily: http://www2.chinadaily.com.cn/china/cpc2011/2011-07/01/content_12817816.htm\nIn talking about the transition to socialism in terms of the writings of Marx and Engels we surely need to address the concept of the \"dictatorship of the proletariat\" which they insisted must be a democratic stage under the direction of the \"immense majority\". As Engels put it, \"If one thing is certain it is our party and the working class can only come to power under the form of a democratic republic\" (Critique of the draft Erfurt Program, 1891).\nThe whole level of wrong. Has the working class lost their chains. Mao is Stalinism. There is nothing Marxist about him.\nKen MacLeod link\nWhile I agree with the general point of this article, I think in one place it mistakenly elides the transition from capitalism to communism (within which of course private and public property in various forms co-exist, which implies some form of socialist market economy) with the successive stages of communist society as such. Marx envisages communist society as non-market from the beginning ('the producers do not exchange their products') and for him the lower stage was simply one in which individual consumption still had to be 'according to work done' rather than 'according to need'. The point is quite clear from the passage immediately preceding the one quoted in the article:\n'Within the co-operative society based on common ownership of the means of production, the producers do not exchange their products; just as little does the labor employed on the products appear here as the value of these products, as a material quality possessed by them, since now, in contrast to capitalist society, individual labor no longer exists in an indirect fashion but directly as a component part of total labor. The phrase \"proceeds of labor\", objectionable also today on account of its ambiguity, thus loses all meaning.\n'What we have to deal with here is a communist society, not as it has developed on its own foundations, but, on the contrary, just as it emerges from capitalist society; which is thus in every respect, economically, morally, and intellectually, still stamped with the birthmarks of the old society from whose womb it emerges.'\nChina is undoubtedly a socialist country, and the article makes a good case that in economic policy the CPC government is following the path outlined in the Communist Manifesto for the transition to socialism, but it is a long way from even the lower phase of communism as Marx envisaged it.\nJorein Versteege link\nI don't think Marx would have liked a society in which millionaires and billionaires can be members of the ''Proletarian'' Party. I don't think Marx would agree with a ''communist'' party that promotes nationalism and uses the instruments of the state to deny workers their right to critize the government. Also if you read Deng Xiaoping correctly, China must first become capitalist before socialism. Chinese workers therfore need to be exploited for years so that a capitalist class and steal their wealth as we see in China today. The working class is now getting exploited for over 40 years because of Deng's line that you need wealth first. This is not what Marx would have wanted, a society in which workers need to wait for how long? 40 years, 50 years, 100 years before the CCP might decide to expropriate the capitalist class? Never, the bureaucrats of the party are already corrupt and only use the communist ideology as excuse to hunt down anybody who criticizes ''Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era''",

        "raw_content": "60 GB PlayStation 3 Price Slashed, 80GB PS3 Announced\nSony's one-two punch brings us a new PS3 and a price drop to the current model\n80GB PlayStation 3 and MotorStorm Bundle. \u00a9Sony\nby Roger Altizer\nA PlayStation specialist who teaches video games at the college level.\nSony has broken the cycle of bad news by announcing a price cut for the current 60GB PS3 and unveiling a new 80GB PS3. After taking a beating in the press, the double news has not only increased sales, but positive coverage as well.\nThe new 80GB version of the PS3 will not be receiving a new name, ala Microsoft's marketing strategy (do you have the Uber PS3 or just the Omega Prime version?). It is slated to ship to North American retailers in August. The new 80GB PS3 will retail for $599 in the U.S. and $649 in Canada.\nIn perhaps what should be considered a third shocker, the 80 GB PS3 will be bundled with a full version of MotorStorm. The popular off-road racer is a natural pick, as it not only shows off the HD capabilities of the PS3, but also features online play. The 80GB version, like its 60GB counterpart features built-in WiFi and Ethernet connectivity.\nSony claims that the expanded hard disk drive (HDD) \"is designed to appeal to the online gaming and entertainment enthusiast, providing ample storage space to download more games and other entertainment content from PLAYSTATION Network.\" This week alone has seen a surge in downloadable content on the PlayStation network, including many free videos and trailers from E3.\nSony has also stated that, \"throughout the holidays and this fiscal year, more than 120 new first and third-party software titles will be available for North American PS3 users to enjoy, in addition to the more than 40 software titles currently available.\" Some of the bigger first-party titles in the list include Folklore, Heavenly Sword, LAIR, NBA 08, Ratchet & Clank Future: Tools of Destruction, SingStar, SOCOM: U.S. Navy SEALs Confrontation, The Eye of Judgement, Uncharted: Drakes Fortune and Warhawk. The Eye of Judgement indicates that the new PS3 camera is on the horizon.\nHighlights from the third-party titles to be released this fiscal year include: Devil May Cry IV, Dynasty Warriors:GUNDAM, Grand Theft Auto IV, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, Hellboy, Metal Gear Solid 4 Guns of the Patriots, SEGA Rally Revo, Stranglehold, TimeShift, and Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter 2.\nSony has also confirmed that PlayStation Home, the online, 3D, Second Life-esque community will see a release this year (for free) and that we should expect to see a large number of downloadable games in the PlayStation Network, including PAIN.\nThere is a small shadow cast by the rainbow of good news, however. The 80GB version of the PS3 will not include the Emotion Engine chip in it. This chip is missing from the current PS3s in Europe and, essentially, is the heart of the PS2. The Emotion Engine allowed for full hardware based backwards compatibility with PS2 and PSone games. The 80GB version will still be backwards compatible, but will achieve this through software emulation.\nOne fear is that the chip will be removed from future 60GB versions as well, or that the 60GB version may be phased out all together, as the 20GB version was.

His has become a household name, a name respected by everyone everywhere, from grandmothers to schoolchildren. Not so many people would recognise his other names, and he is a man who has been known by many names throughout his life. Nelson Rolihlahla Dalibhunga Mandela came from what most people would regard as a poor background, yet his family were aristocrats among the Xhosa people of the Transkei in South Africa. From the time he was a boy he was destined, as his father before him had been, to become an advisor at the court of the Xhosa king, but no one could have predicted that young Rolihlahla would one day become an outlaw known as 'The Black Pimpernel' or a statesman of international standing - President Mandela.This is a fully illustrated life story of Nelson Mandela with a unique collection of photographs from throughout his life.",

Police said that numerous Ontarians trusted the scam e-mail and fell victim each year.\nMoreover, in similar news, the Better Business Bureau of Chicago (U.S) has been alerting netizens to watch out for a new scam that offers apartments on rent.\nRead the full article \u201cReal Estate Scams Try To Prey On Potential Student And Other Tenants\u201d in Spam Fighter News (September 12, 2009).",

        "raw_content": "Corporate Restructurings and the New Merger Regime under The Companies Act 2014\nAs well as representing new possibilities in the context of acquisitions, the new merger regime under the Companies Act 2014 (the Act) offers a number of benefits which make it attractive to corporates seeking to restructure.\nThe Act provides for the following three forms of statutory merger between private companies:\nMerger by Acquisition: involves the successor company acquiring all the assets and liabilities of the transferring company which is then dissolved without going into liquidation in exchange for the issue to the members of the transferring company of shares in the successor company.\nMerger by Absorption: whereby upon being dissolved and without going into liquidation, the transferring company transfers all of its assets and liabilities to the successor company (which must at the time be the holder of the entire issued share capital of the transferring company).\nMerger by formation of a new company: whereby two or more companies (on being dissolved without going into liquidation) transfer all of their assets and liabilities to a successor company that they form in exchange for the issue to their members of shares in the capital of that new company.\nOne or more of these forms of merger can be used to affect a restructuring depending on the nature of the existing corporate structure and the new structure sought to be implemented.\nUpon a merger becoming effective:\nEvery agreement to which the transferor company is a party shall notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in that agreement have effect as if the successor company had been a party to it instead of the transferor company.\nEvery contract to which the transferor company is a party becomes a contract between the successor company and the counterparty with the same rights and subject to the same obligations, liabilities and incidents as would have been applicable if that agreement had continued in force between the transferor company and the counterparty.\nAny money due and owing or payable by/to a transferor company under or by virtue of any contract shall become due and owing or payable by/to the successor company instead of the transferor company.\nAn offer or invitation to treat made to/by a transferor company before the effective date of the merger shall have effect respectively as an offer or invitation to treat made to/by the successor company.\nThe successor company is automatically substituted in all legal proceedings pending by or against the transferor company.\nProceeding by merger, rather than hiving assets between group companies by way of business transfer, offers a number of efficiencies and benefits. Depending on the relevant business, benefits may include the fact that consents of counterparties to the transfer or assignment of agreements (for example customer contracts or leases) will not be required. There is also no need to subsequently wind up the dormant transferor company as this is automatically dissolved upon the merger becoming effective.\nWhile the merger regime offers a number of benefits it is still a new area of law which is yet to be fully tried and tested. There is doubt also as to how mergers will be treated for the purposes of stamp duty. Experience to date in dealing with mergers taking place under non-Irish law suggests that Revenue would not seek to impose a charge to stamp duty where a merger takes place in accordance with the Act. Companies would however be well advised to request prior Revenue confirmation regarding the treatment for stamp duty purposes of any restructuring proposed to be implemented by way of merger under the Act.\nFor further information on this topic, please contact Seanna Mulrean at smulrean@lkshields.ie.\nThis article first appeared in Accountancy Ireland, August 2016.",

Morgan Martin, P.A. posted in Car Accidents on Wednesday, January 4, 2017.\nNo one wakes up in the morning and says, \"this is a good day to be in a car accident!\" No one wants to be involved in car accidents, period, but they happen unexpectedly and, usually, at some of the worst times for personal and professional commitments. These incidents, whether big or small, can affect one physically, financially and emotionally. Those in South Carolina who have been injured in car crashes resulting from the negligence of others may seek relief for their losses in court.\nAuto collisions, regardless of how many vehicles are involved, can have outcomes that range from minor to severe. The majority of auto accidents are considered to be relatively minor. However, some may still result in victims suffering injuries that can lead to life-long pain or other medical problems. Those whose injuries may not seem that bad initially should seek medical treatment as soon as possible if any symptoms appear, fail to improve or increase in severity.\nAccidents that result in severe injuries can be absolutely devastating to victims and their family members. Such injuries are not only physically damaging, but are usually emotionally and financially harmful as well. Regardless of whether your accident was minor, moderate or severe, you may have the right to compensation. To learn more about this, please visit our firm's website.\nIn South Carolina and elsewhere, fighting personal injury claims stemming from car accidents can be difficult. It is not always easy to prove negligence in court. An experienced attorney can help you take the actions necessary to fight your case and seek maximum relief for any economic and non-economic damages you have experienced.",

        "raw_content": "INDIA @ 70: Indians optimistic about next 5 years\n\u2022 Though concerns about harmony remain\n\u2022 India\u2019s global clout to increase over the next 5 years\nAugust 15, 2017, New Delhi: As India turns 70 this Independence Day, every Indian would be proud of the achievement of the country.\nCommunity engagement platform LocalCircles conducted a set of polls to gauge the mood of the citizens. To document their perception about the country over the next 5 years. More than 25,000 citizens from across India answered the questions and gave some great insights.\nAround 61 % citizens see growth and prosperity for most Indian over the next five years. They feel optimistic that India will be able to leverage its demographic dividend and create employment and entrepreneurship opportunities for young Indians.\nAround 34 % citizens have expressed concern on the social stability front i.e. the ability for people to live together peacefully and in harmony. A high 75% expect India\u2019s global clout to further improve as India approaches 75 years of independence in 2022. Approximately 66% feel India will be able to improve its governance delivery during this period as it implements Aadhaar based governance and adopts participative governance models.\nThe first poll asked how they saw India\u2019s growth and prosperity in the next 5 years. In response, 30% said they see growth and prosperity for all, 31% said they see it for most, 35% said they see it for few and 4% said they see growth and prosperity for none.\nIndia is the largest democracy of the world. If India\u2019s aim is to become a developed country in the next decade, its economic, social and political performance will need vast improvement. Citizens said that for India to grow and prosper many areas will need an improved performance including many public enterprises, infrastructure development, government school education etc.\nIn the second poll, citizens were asked how do they see India\u2019s social stability (ability of citizens to live with each other in harmony and peace) changing in the next 5 years. 38% replied saying they see it improving, but 34% said they see it declining. 24% see it being same as today and 3% were not sure about it.\nFor India to be a world leader communal and social harmony would play a very important role. Cases of using religious sentiments to create vote banks are not unheard of and such instances will need to be completely eradicated. In various structured discussions, citizens suggested that the police must have close association and connectivity with the community and strict laws should be formulated to handle violent protests. They also said that caught vandals should be strictly dealt with and an example should be made on what is not acceptable and politicians found guilty of flaring up of communal tensions should be severely punished.\nThe third question asked the citizens how they felt India\u2019s clout would change at a global level in the next 5 years. In response, a majority of 75% citizens said that they see it improving, 14% said it will stay the same and 8% see it declining.\nSeveral new programmes like Make in India, Startup India, Swachh Bharat, Skill India, Smart Cities, implementation of major tax reform via GST etc. are attracting the attention of leading nations and corporates. Citizens said that India should garner more global support for India\u2019s fight against terrorism and strengthen India\u2019s image with other nations.\nThe fourth question asked how India will leverage its huge demographic dividend i.e. young population in the next 5 years. Around 31% said India will create a lot of new employment and entrepreneurs. Around 35% said India will be able to create only some employment opportunities, but many entrepreneurs. Only 29% said India will be unable to create new employment or entrepreneurs and 5% were not sure about what would happen.\nIndia has more than 50% of its population below the age of 25 and more than 65% below the age of 35. It is expected that, in 2020, the average age of an Indian will be 29 years, compared to 37 for China and 48 for Japan.\nCitizens said the government will need to take the right steps for the skill development of the youngsters for making them job ready and each state should set up skill development schools. They also suggested that the existing ITIs and polytechnics be modernized and the young populations should be guided towards the right direction. At the same time, entrepreneurship will have to be given a boost and sops will have to be announced for SMEs fighting against cheap imports from neighbouring countries. Many citizens also feel that corruption, a major barrier for SMEs to establish and do business must be addressed in mission mode by central and state governments by enabling local ecosystems that focus on improving transparency and accountability.\nThe fifth question asked that with the adoption of biometric based citizen identification and participative governance improve governance in the next five years. Will India be able to get ahead in the area of governance delivery as compared to other developing nations in the next 5 years. Majority that is 66% replied in an affirmative while 24% replied in a negative. 10% were unsure about it.\nAadhaar is expected to become the basis of most of one\u2019s business and official transactions in India. Over a billion citizens have already enrolled under Aadhaar making it the world\u2019s largest biometric database. The government has in the recent past asked the citizens to link their Aadhaar card with their bank account, PAN card, Income tax returns, EPF, passport and many more. It will soon be India\u2019s version of the American \u2018social security number\u2019 plus a lot more because of the biometric. It might become the \u2018only card\u2019 in the future replacing all other like voter id, PAN card etc. making it easier for the government to pass on the benefits to the citizens as well as track transactions. Citizens have also outlined the new model of participative governance used by some central government ministries as a big positive step. Ministries like Consumer Affairs and Departments like FSSAI are now listening to citizens as they formulate policy. This unique practice according to citizens should be followed by all central, state and local government departments such that citizens are made a key stakeholder in the governance and policy process.",

However, the head and neck can also develop cancers in areas like the larynx (voice box), throat, lips, mouth, nose, and salivary glands. According to the American Cancer Society, these cancers account for three percent of all cancers in the United States, and an estimated 63,000 people will be diagnosed this year. Dr. Martin W. Oster[link: https://hudsonvalleydoctors.nyp.org/doctors/oster/], a board-certified medical oncologist with the Cheryl R. Lindenbaum Comprehensive Cancer Center at NewYork-Presbyterian Hudson Valley Hospital in Cortlandt Manor, discusses head and neck cancers, risk factors, and how treatments are changing to become less invasive and more effective. Dr. Oster of ColumbiaDoctors, the faculty practice of Columbia University Medical Center, is part of the NewYork-Presbyterian Medical Group Hudson Valley.\n1. Can you explain in more detail what head and neck cancers are?\nThe term \"head and neck cancer\" actually refers to a group of malignancies that arise in these areas. Most look the same under the microscope and are called squamous cell carcinomas because they look like malignancies that arose from cells similar to the outer lining of the skin. Indeed, squamous cell cancers of the skin are one of the main types of skin cancer, and can occur any place on the body. This discussion will deal with squamous cell carcinomas of the head and neck.\n2. What are the most common types?\nThe types generally depend on where the cancer originated. These can include oral and oropharyngeal (starting in the mouth area), nasopharyngeal (starting in the nasal area), and laryngeal and hypopharyngeal (starting in the throat area). These cancers commonly spread to lymph glands in the neck, producing lumps, but do not spread to other parts of the body until late in their course if they have not been cured. Symptoms depend on where the cancer is located. A patient can have trouble with eating and swallowing, problems with nasal stuffiness or headaches, or voice problems, such as severe hoarseness or change in character of the voice. Less common head and neck cancers are those that arise in the salivary glands, lymphomas, and melanomas.\n3. Who is most at risk?\nUntil about 10 years ago, most people who developed head and neck cancers were either smokers, alcohol drinkers, or both. Now, we are seeing a great many such cancers caused by the Human Papilloma Virus (HPV), the same virus family that causes cancer of the cervix in women and penile cancer in men. These are actually sexually transmitted cancers, and may not be as aggressive as those cancers caused by smoking and/or drinking.\n4. How has treatment changed over the years?\nIn the past, the only successful treatments for these malignancies involved surgery and/or radiotherapy. Unfortunately, these treatments could result in major complications such as significant deformities of the face and neck; loss of the voice box with inability to speak; problems with swallowing, sometimes requiring tube feedings; problems with breathing, requiring tracheotomies. With improvements in chemotherapy and targeted agents, which are drugs that block the growth and spread of cancer, we now can often avoid the need for such invasive, and possibly mutilating operations. For example, these \"organ-sparing\" treatments can eliminate the need to remove the voice box in laryngeal cancer patients so they can maintain normal speech and swallowing. In some cases, we give chemotherapy concurrently with radiotherapy and other medications; sometimes we start with chemotherapy to shrink the cancer so that radiotherapy can then be given to a smaller area of the head and neck.\n5. Are there any clinical trials currently underway?\nClinical trials at NewYork-Presbyterian and at other sites are looking at ways to get better results with fewer side effects. A promising area is the use of immunotherapy, where the patient's own immune system is used to destroy the cancer cells. A group of drugs known as checkpoint inhibitors is particularly encouraging and two such drugs have recently received FDA approval for use in patients with advanced head and neck cancers who are not responding to standard chemotherapy. Another interesting area being evaluated is whether HPV-related cancers can be treated with milder radiotherapy and/or chemotherapy, since these tend to be more responsive to treatment and less aggressive than cancers caused by smoking and/or drinking. As research continues to advance, the hope is that we can offer patients ever more effective treatments.\nTo make an appointment with Dr. Oster call 914-293-8400.

YMCA Ladies have teamed up with a local entertainment company Blazer Entertainments to hold a Gunge the Girl contest on Friday 16 October at the YMCA, Drumahoe.\nThe idea is that six girls from the team have been \"chosen\" by an independent committee to \"stand for election\" for the right to be gunged in an 8ft glass tank!\nVoting slips have been produced with pictures of the six candidates on them and votes will cost 1 each. Each member of the club will be \"canvassing\" the public for each of the girls and when the votes are counted on Friday 16 October. The girl with the most votes will be gunged. Voting is expected to be very close and a split decision would not be a surprise! Rumour has it that more than one gungeing might take place on the night and a large crowd are expected to be in attendance for this event.\nThe spokesman said: \u201cEveryone is welcome to attend the show and witness what is likely to be one of many fundraising events in the North-West and in Ireland as a whole, featuring the GUnge Tank. The tank has proved very popular in England at fundraising events and is expected to take off here also. YMCA are delighted to team up with Blazer Entertainments who specialise in all types of entertainment including Karaoke, Discos and of course the Gunge Tank for this event.\u201d\nIt will take place at 9.30pm on Friday, October 16, at the YMCA.

        "raw_content": "Is long-term care part of your long-term financial plan? \u2013 II\nLast time, our blog discussed that many people are ambivalent about the prospect of long-term care. Specifically, the recent recession and the belief they\u2019ll be healthy forever makes it less of a priority.\nWe also discussed how this might prove to be a mistake. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services has found that nearly 70 percent of individuals 65 and up will likely require long-term care.\nThe question then becomes, how can people fund the potentially necessary long-term care?\nMedicare will cover skilled nursing services in a nursing home setting, but only for 100 days. Furthermore, it won\u2019t cover the cost of long-term care services/home aide services. That\u2019s because these are not technically considered medical services.\nWhile Medicaid will cover long-term care, it won\u2019t do so until the individual has used all other resources. In other words, when one is close to insolvency, a less than ideal situation.\nHealth savings accounts and self-insurance\nA person might want to put funds in an HSA (Health Savings Account) or investment account to fund long-term care. If so, they are to be applauded for their diligence.\nHowever, knowledgeable sources indicate that self funding long-term care will require a considerable amount of money. Indeed, one firm found the median monthly cost for a health aide in 2016 was $3,861 per month. It\u2019s likely that these prices will only get higher in the next 20-30 years.\nExperts suggest that long-term care insurance is likely the most viable option. That\u2019s because it will pay policyholders a predetermined amount to help cover the costs of daily living. They also note, that premiums are expensive and only increase with each passing year.\nAnother viable option, which we\u2019ve explored in detail, is hybrid life/long-term care policy.\nHopefully the foregoing information has proven helpful in debunking misconceptions about the need for long-term care.\nSource: USA Today, \u201cDo you need long-term care insurance?\u201d Wendy Connick, March 8, 2017\nIs long-term care part of your long-term financial plan?\nShould more stay-at-home parents consider purchasing life insurance?",

        "raw_content": "Los Angeles Carrying a Concealed Weapon Lawyer\nThe act of carrying a concealed weapon means a person is armed but the weapon is hidden from view, either on the person\u2019s body or inside their vehicle. The issue of whether or not it is legal to carry a concealed weapon varies from state to state, and also varies in different localities within a state.\nCalifornia is a state that has some of the most restrictive gun laws in the nation, and Los Angeles, as a major urban area, is also very restricted as to its gun permits. California is referred to as a \u201cmay issue\u201d state for concealed weapon permits. Though some rural areas in California allow (\u201cshall issue\u201d) concealed weapon permits, most of the urban areas, including Los Angeles, are \u201cno issue\u201d areas, and so carrying a concealed weapon is illegal. The state also does not allow people with concealed weapon permits from other states to carry concealed weapons within California, and non-residents of California will not be issued a concealed weapon permit.\nA recent ruling by a federal appeals court also tightened restrictions on permits to carry concealed weapons. The U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeals ruled in June of 2016 that counties within California may restrict the issuance of permits for carrying concealed weapons. It\u2019s clear that the rules on carrying concealed weapons are becoming more strict in California and thus in Los Angeles. So who is allowed to carry a concealed weapon in Los Angeles?\nPermits For Concealed Weapons in Los Angeles\nThe Los Angeles County Sheriff\u2019s Department has a strict policy on the licensing of concealed weapons within the city. The rules make it clear that no one in Los Angeles can be issued a permit simply for their \u201cpersonal convenience.\u201d It is also clear from the Sheriff\u2019s Department rules that no type of job in particular makes a person eligible for obtaining a concealed weapon permit in Los Angeles. Applicants who wish to have a permit must state their case and have their application reviewed individually before a decision is made.\nThere are four categories for Conceal Carry Weapon permits in Los Angeles County. These include: Employment, Standard, Judges and Reserve Police Officers.\nThe Employment CCW license is only issued for a 90 day period and is issued to people who spend most of their time at their place of business within the county which gives out the permit.\nThe Standard CCW license is given out for a two year period for residents of the area issuing the permit.\nThe Judge CCW permit is given to California judges, commissioners working on a full-time basis, and to federal judges and magistrates of the federal courts.\nThe other type of permit is issued to Reserve Police Officers.\nAny applicant for a permit must undergo training in the use of firearms in order for their application to be considered. Along with training, the applicant must also prove their good character, good cause for needing a CCW permit, and their residence within the county.\nAll of these elements will be considered before a person can be allowed to carry a concealed weapon in Los Angeles. These strict laws have been enacted in order to protect the people of Los Angles, and anyone who fails to abide by these rules will have to answer for their actions in a court of law.",

        "title": "Mementos to Keep from Your Wedding Day: Invitations for Less",
        "raw_content": "Any bride-to-be knows that her wedding day is an occasion she\u2019ll want to remember forever. Of course, the memories of such a wonderful day are bound to be vivid and long-lasting. Nevertheless, most brides also like to keep tangible mementos which can be treasured alongside their personal memories.\nWe\u2019ve written before about some of the most popular wedding keepsakes, such as photographs and guest books. However, what about the smaller things? There are some less obvious tokens which can make beautiful reminders of your special day. Here are five items you shouldn\u2019t forget to keep from your wedding.\nMost wedding cakes feature a small decorative model seated on top. Traditionally, this model is a representation of a bride and groom in wedding attire. Today, there are many variations available. As the final slices of your wedding cake start to disappear, you may wish to remove the topper and put it in a safe place. Be advised, though, that some cake toppers are edible, and these may not be ideal for keeping long-term!\nYour Ring Bearer\u2019s Cushion or Flower Girl\u2019s Basket\nIf your wedding ceremony will feature a ring bearer or coin bearer, he will almost always carry a cushion featuring decorative rings. In some cases, another type of vessel may be used, such as a plate or a bowl. In any case, these items make ideal souvenirs of your wedding day. Just remember that, as the cushion is in the care of a young child during the ceremony, it may be wise to take special care that it doesn\u2019t become lost.\nIf your ceremony also features a flower girl, she will most likely carry a decorative basket. As with the ring bearer\u2019s cushion, this item makes an ideal souvenir. Again, make sure the kid doesn\u2019t lose it!\nYour Wedding Planning Scrapbook or Notebook\nYou\u2019ve spent months planning your wedding. You may very well have started a scrapbook to keep track of your ideas and the things you like. If this is the case, don\u2019t just bin it after the wedding is over. Your scrapbook is a unique record, not just of your wedding itself, but of the weeks and months leading up to the big day. You never know how much fun it might be to leaf through its pages a few years from now.\nHandwritten Notes of Speeches\nIf the groom, best man, or father of the bride made particularly moving or entertaining speeches, the chances are that they had written their speeches down beforehand. Ask them if they would mind giving you their notes, so that you can always remember just what they said. This is an especially good idea if there was no videographer present to record the speeches.\nYour Wedding Cutlery\nThe meal at your reception will hopefully be a delicious and memorable one, to be savoured with your partner. Perhaps you\u2019d like to keep just a few items of the cutlery you both used. Personalised wedding cutlery is available, if you\u2019d like to supply your own on the day. If the cutlery you use belongs to the reception venue, try politely asking if it would be possible for you to keep a couple of items used by the bride and groom.\nWhether you choose to keep any of these items, and what you do with them, is entirely up to you. You may wish to keep them in a safe place, to be taken out at times when you feel like reminiscing. Alternatively, you may wish to use some of them to decorate the home you share with your loved one. Remember that several of the items we\u2019ve mentioned are available in personalised versions, and these may be especially suitable as keepsakes.",

        "title": "SWITCH. | Film review: The Limehouse Golem - Here we are again",
        "raw_content": "Want more? Listen to our discussion of 'The Limehouse Golem' on SWITCHCast\nGruesome news is always alluring to the general populace. We love to read about a murder and try to understand what happened or what went wrong. It's an unfortunate and morbid part of our very nature that spans back though our history, horrific violence for entertainment - assuming it wasn't being enacted on you. But what happens when violence and theatre meet on the streets of Victorian London, and are we ready for this new take on an ancient spectacle?\nIt's London, 1880, and the streets are home to the denizens of the Victorian underworld, denizens who also populate the music hall where the story is set (or told? or enacted? - I still can't work that one out). The story is that of Elizabeth Cree (Olivia Cooke, 'Me and Earl and the Dying Girl'), set to hang for the murder of her husband. But this fate may be avoided as Detective Inspector John Kildare (Bill Nighy, 'The Second Best Exotic Marigold Hotel', 'About Time') is set on the case of the Limehouse Golem. It's a high mystery with elements of the fantastical that will have you guessing, almost to the last minute.\n'THE LIMEHOUSE GOLEM' TRAILER\nIt is surely no secret by now that I adore the whimsical, fantastical and theatrical. But for what I was assuming was going to be a more straightforward Agatha Christie-style whodunnit, I was mistaken. That isn't to say this didn't work; I just spend a fair amount of time wondering what was going on and who was who. This is probably one of the best devices of the film, breaking away from the usual tropes. In the theatre, anything is possible, and so too it felt like in 'The Limehouse Golem.' I often felt like I was watching two separate films that had been combined, as there was so much of the film set in flashback. Part gory murder story, part courtroom drama, questions were asked and then maybe even over-answered.\nI couldn't stop second-guessing myself throughout, and that was definitely part of the fun and the appeal. Just when you think you're about to get an answer in a flashback, you get more than you bargained for and it changes the question you originally had. That said, I still don't think I understand the ending, or indeed who \"done\" it. I thought I had an answer when I saw it but now I just don't know at all. Does this film even exist? Do I exist?\nJust when you think you're about to get an answer in a flashback, you get more than you bargained for and it changes the question you originally had.\nThere is a definite charm around the film and you literally have every British actor who is alive right now in it. I think setting it in a music hall or theatre gives the film a certain creative licence with how it tells its story: you are always trying to figure out not only the murderer but who in fact is telling what part of this elaborate tale.

(Photo: James Bianchi/MediaToday)\nIn the future, the rights of robots might become a very topical issue, and legislators will have to act to regulate this, the Prime Minister said.\nJoseph Muscat was speaking at the Malta Innovation Summit, where he underlined the importance Malta continuing to be innovative.\nMuscat said that after the country had started implementing its vision of becoming a blockchain hub \u2013 it is one of the world\u2019s first jurisdictions with a legislative framework in the sector \u2013 it was now time to move towards the area of artificial intelligence (AI).\n\u201cOnce we\u2019ve achieved our blockchain goal, we\u2019re now directing our aim towards AI. We\u2019re getting into the discussion about the future of work \u2013 meaning what type of productivity will the world be engaged in over the next few decades,\u201d he said.\n\u201cIn the future, machines might not only be able to learn but also to define themselves. We could be discussing the rights of robots \u2013 a discussion which has started in the United States,\" Muscat said.\nElaborating, he said legislators could be innovative in this field. \"I think this subject will hit the headlines in the coming years. I believe legislators might have to regulate the kind of work which is given to machines.\"\nMuscat said Malta had employed innovation \u201csince time immemorial\u201d, and had transformed itself from a fortress economy, to one based on tourism and manufacturing, and now to an economy of financial services, iGaming, blockchain, and moving towards other areas of technology.\n\u201cThe way we reinvent ourselves every now and then is based on our innovative instinct. We should push one another to be more innovative in the way we think and act, and this comes about with education,\" he insisted.\nFrom AI to space mining\nDigital Economy Parliamentary Secretary Silvio Schembri said that Malta\u2019s blockchain vision was materialising, and the country would now be looking at other sectors.\n\u201cThe next priority is AI, quantum technology, space mining, big data and the internet of things,\u201d Schembri said.\nHe added that if Malta acted fast, it could become the first country where quantum communication technology is implemented on a commercial basis.",

        "raw_content": "3 remedies for solving the UK's productivity gap\nWith UK productivity in the doldrums, Professional Manager takes a look at measures Chancellor George Osborne can take to boost performance in UK Plc\nThe UK\u2019s poor productivity is a well-known and vexing conundrum.\nThe remaining members of the G7 are reporting productivity levels that are an average of 18 percentage points ahead of the UK; only Japan reports lower levels.\nThis productivity deficit, compared with G7 nations, represents the widest gap in productivity since modern records began in 1990. OECD analysis of the UK\u2019s productivity plight pins the blame squarely on leadership and management skills.\nThe challenge of improving these vital skills is becoming ever more urgent. The latest data shows that the UK labour force will need as many as 1.9 million new managers by 2024 as the economy grows and to offset the impact of retirement among the current generation of leaders.\nIt adds up to a strong national case for investment in the UK\u2019s management and leadership skills, not least through the new management and leadership apprenticeships.\nSo what other solutions are being mooted?\nDitch quarterly reporting\nThe Investment Association (IA) is the latest organisation to publish a productivity plan\nIts primary recommendation is to scrap quarterly reporting to focus on longer-term strategy. Other key recommendations include: improved reporting of intangible assets; easier access to funding for small to medium-sized startups; and a longer-term approach to incentives and investment strategies.\nCommercial secretary to the Treasury, Lord O\u2019Neill, who delivered the keynote speech at the IA report\u2019s launch, said: \u201cLong-term investment is crucial to our plans to boost productivity. We need investors who are willing to back businesses that take this approach, whether it\u2019s building a new factory or creating a new product.\n\u201cThat is why [this] report is a significant step in the right direction, because it shows that investors are taking action to encourage the kind of long-term investment that we need.\u201d\nUnilever chief executive and CMI Gold Medal winner Paul Polman famously dropped quarterly reporting as one of his first acts when he took over as CEO.\n\u201cPeople asked how I did it,\u201d he told Professional Manager. \u201cI just did it. In fact, I did it on my first day as I figured they couldn\u2019t fire me on the first day they\u2019d hired me.\u201d\nAndrew Ninian, the IA\u2019s director of corporate governance, said the proposals demonstrate how committed the investment community is to helping business improve productivity.\n\u201cProductivity improvements can help drive economic growth, and require UK businesses to invest for the long term,\u201d he said. \u201cThe [IA report] outlines how we, as investors, can play a fundamental role to help improve UK productivity and support long-term investment. It seeks to deliver ambitious and achievable remedies to the ills of some of the most serious causes of short-term thinking.\n\u201cThe investment industry remains steadfast in its commitment to play its part in fixing the UK productivity puzzle.\u201d\nAddress the \u2018always on\u2019 culture\nResearch from CMI has found that an \u2018always on\u2019 work culture of ever increasing hours and rocketing stress levels is one of the driving forces behind the UK\u2019s poor productivity.\nOf the 1,574 managers surveyed in the 2016 Quality of Working Life report, the vast majority (77%) work at least one additional hour each day, adding up to an extra 29 days over the course of a year, cancelling out managers\u2019 annual leave entitlement (28 days on average).\nAnd 10% of those surveyed said they work an extra three hours every day \u2013 the equivalent of working a 15-month year. In total, 92% of respondents said they work more than their contracted hours.\nThose working long hours are more than three times as likely to feel stressed than those working no additional hours.\nCMI Companion Professor Sir Cary Cooper, a lead author of the CMI report, said the findings lead him to fear for the UK economy: \u201cThe long-hours culture is very worrying. We are seventh in the G7 and 17th in the G20 on productivity per capita. Germany is one of the top in the world for productivity per capita \u2013 and its average hours of work are 35, among the world\u2019s lowest.\u201d\nCMI chief executive Ann Francke said that a lack of professional management is to blame for excessive working, with \u2018accidental managers\u2019 unequipped to balance the needs of their team with the needs of the organisation.\n\u201cThere\u2019s nothing wrong with hard graft, but only if you\u2019re well supported,\u201d she said. \u201cAccidental managers who lack the professional skills to deal with the causes of burnout are a threat to their health and others\u2019 at work.\nProductivity will also continue to suffer unless employers train managers to prevent overwork and strike a work-life balance.\u201d\nThe Quality of Working Life survey also found that more open, empowering management styles are connected to lower levels of stress, higher job satisfaction and greater personal productivity.\nThe worst management styles generate up to four times more stress than the best: as many as 28% of those whose line managers are secretive or suspicious report that they often feel stressed \u2013 compared with just 7% of those whose managers are empowering.\nListen to workers\nResearch from think tank The Smith Institute found that 68% of employees say they are working harder than two years ago, but less than half (49%) say they are being more productive in their work.\nPaul Hackett, director of The Smith Institute, said the results show that businesses need to do more to focus on the human element of productivity and engage better with workers: \u201cAll the focus is on short term cost savings, robotics and system change. These factors obviously have a role to play, but a big part of the answer lies with the workforce itself.\u201d\nHe added: \u201cOur survey shows that employees not only understand the need for productivity improvements, but want to share in the benefits. Their frustration is being ignored.\u201d\nOf the 7,454 workers surveyed, more than a quarter said their employer does not listen to their suggestions for productivity or efficiency improvements in the workplace.\nHackett said this is evidence that too many managers are failing to properly engage with their staff: \u201cManagement is all too often not properly engaging the workforce and failing to offer the right incentives and rewards,\u201d he said. \u201cWe need a new deal on productivity at work that is people based and values employees\u2019 voices.\u201d",

Strengthening their partnership with The Marine Conservation Society Seychelles, this is the first Coral Reef Restoration Project on the North-West coast of Mah\u00e9 and involves setting up of coral nurseries to restore the reef.\nOver the years the coral reefs around Seychelles have suffered from bleaching and the natural restoration process of the coral reefs is a long drawn out process. Coral fragments or pieces of coral broken due to storms, snorkelers and divers or anchoring boats are used as \u201ccorals of opportunity\u201d. The project started with the in-situ coral nurseries (underwater) where corals were carefully collected and nurtured in nurseries that were set up exclusively for this purpose and proceeded with the construction of specially fabricated ex-situ coral nurseries (on land).\nLe Meridien Fisherman\u2019s Cove has also introduced a coral adoption program. For a small donation, guests will have the option to name their coral fragment and will receive an adoption certificate. Every three months they will get an update on the growth of the coral. The donation will ensure the continuation for the upkeep of the corals in their nurseries as well support the enhancement of resources required to expand our restoration efforts and ensure its sustainable and successful. The entire process could take anywhere between 6 months to a year depending upon the size and the species of the corals. Once the fragments grow into a certain size, they are out- planted onto the reef.\n\u201cWe believe it is our responsibility to make a valuable difference to the environment in which we operate,\u201d said Romain Chanet, General Manager Le Meridien Fisherman\u2019s Cove, Seychelles. \u201cDrawing upon the success of our \u201cUnlock the Sea\u201d program, and seeing the interest and engagement from our guests, we see this as an opportunity for us to play an active role in marine life conservation and we are committed to make our humble contribution towards preserving a sustainable and healthy marine ecosystem.\u201d\nMarine experts from The Marine Conservation Society Seychelles will guide the hotel through this process and support and collaborate with the hotel.",

        "title": "Reaching for stars, Sixers are empty-handed - The Morning Call",
        "raw_content": "Reaching for stars, Sixers are empty-handed\nThe 76ers, in the words of coach and interim GM Brett Brown, are \"star hunting.\" So far, they haven't reached the point of \"star catching.\"\nThey tried to convince LeBron James to join Joel Embiid and Ben Simmons, but James chose to sign with the Lakers for $154 million over four years. The announcement came soon after Sixers co-managing owners Josh Harris, David Blitzer and Brown reportedly met with James' representatives Sunday in Los Angeles.\nPaul George opted to re-sign with the Thunder, leaving disgruntled Spurs all-star small forward Kawhi Leonard as the Sixers' last top-tier target. Given Leonard's apparent desire to wind up with the Lakers, which would only increase now that LeBron is headed to Southern California, the Sixers must decide if they're going to continue to pursue a Leonard deal with the distinct possibility he'll be a one-year rental.\nThe Spurs supposedly asked the Sixers for two players and three first-rounders in exchange for Leonard, who will earn $20.1 million in the final year of his contract (he has a $21.3 million player option for 2019-20).\nBrown, who helped develop Leonard as a San Antonio rookie out of San Diego State beginning in 2011, might think he, Joel Embiid and Ben Simmons can convince Leonard to re-sign here next summer. I believe that's too risky a proposition to give up, say, Robert Covington, Dario Saric and two or three first-round choices for one year with Leonard.\nInstead, the Sixers need to change course quickly. They've seemingly started doing so by returning to last summer's strategy by former GM Bryan Colangelo's strategy of giving players one-year contracts to preserve future cap space.\nShooting guard JJ Redick has agreed to a one-year deal worth between $12 million and $13 million, according to Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN. Redick signed for $23 million in 2017. Contracts don't become official until Friday.\nRedick, a 13th-year pro, gives the Sixers a much-needed reliable outside threat and veteran leader. He shot 42 percent from 3-point land last year and scored a career-high 17.1 points.\nIt looks like the Sixers hope to address their other needs \u2014 scoring, bench help, backup center, leadership \u2014 on one-year deals with the roughly $13 million in remaining cap space, plus the $4.49 million mid-level exception.\nAmong their targets could be Philadelphia native Wayne Ellington and/or Jamal Crawford (bench scorers/veteran leadership), as well as Kyle O'Quinn (backup big man). The impending departures of late-season, minimum-salary acquisitions Ersan Ilyasova (Bucks) and Marco Belinelli (Spurs) are creating holes in the second unit.\nThis approach would preserve the Sixers' significant 2019 cap space, enabling them to go after an elite free agent. That year's class could feature Klay Thompson, Jimmy Butler, Leonard and perhaps Kevin Durant. But Thompson is expected to re-sign with Golden State, Butler might not be the best fit, Leonard appears ticketed for Los Angeles and Durant could choose to stay with the Warriors.\nJonah Bolden, a Sixers' 2017 second-round selection playing in Israel, could compete for the reserve power forward spot this fall.\nThe Sixers declined to make any of their coaches or front office personnel available to the media to discuss rookie camp or other matters Monday at the team's training facility.\nShould they fail to lure a star again next summer, the Sixers' window for signing a big-budget free agent might be closed since Simmons would be due a rookie extension in 2020.\nIn that case, the Sixers could try to make an uneven trade in which they take back more salary than they acquire. Comparable examples of 20-point scorers this summer who could be available via deals are the Trail Blazers' CJ McCollum and the Raptors ' DeMar DeRozan and Kyle Lowry.\nWhile none of those would move the needs like LeBron, it might be what the new GM decides to do in 2019.\nFor the Sixers to improve on last year's 52 wins and first-round playoff victory, they're going to have to rely upon Embiid to get in better physical shape, Simmons to develop a 15-foot jumper and Markelle Fultz to start showing why he was the No. 1 overall pick a year ago.\nFor now, at least, the star hunting has changed to star development.",

        "title": "Truck Accident Attorney : Hazleton, PA firm McNelis Law",
        "raw_content": "An attorney who gets results for people injured in truck accidents\nIf you or a loved one has been injured in a truck accident, it's important to take action quickly to protect your rights.\nAttorney Edward McNelis has been helping clients injured in truck accidents since 1982. He knows that trucking companies and their insurance carriers are not on your side.\nTruck accidents can be devastating. A fully loaded 18-wheeler can weigh 80,000 pounds. When that truck hits a car while traveling at 65 mph or faster, it can cause tremendous damage-and serious injuries. People in truck accidents can suffer from brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, broken bones and injuries to internal organs, to name a few serious consequences of a crash. You may have even lost a loved one in a fatal truck accident.\nA truck accident can also damage your finances. There are medical expenses, including surgery, hospitalization and doctor's appointments. You may need physical therapy. There may be medication you need to take. Then there's the loss of your vehicle. If you can't work, there are lost wages. The costs add up fast.\nWhat can you do? McNelis Law can help you strike back.\nFighting for your rights. Standing up to trucking companies.\nTruck accidents typically differ from car accidents because more parties are involved. There is the truck driver, the insurance companies - usually the cab and trailer have separate insurance - and the trucking company that hired the driver. In some cases, the trucking company may be liable for the accident. You can be sure they will take an active role in trying to deny your claim.\nNo-Zone/Blind Spot\nRear-Ended By Truck\nWhy did your accident happen?\nFatigued Truck Driver\nTexting/Distracted Trucker\nDrunk and Drugged Truck Drivers\nTruck Maintenance Issues\nSpeeding Truck\nA trucking company will often send someone to the scene within hours after an accident to investigate. They are looking for any evidence that could show the driver or the company was not at fault. If they do find evidence of negligence-such as a driver who was speeding, texting or driving longer than allowed by law-they are going to keep it quiet. Their goal is to deny you compensation, or at least keep it low.\nAttorney Edward P. McNelis knows how trucking companies operate, and he won't stand for anything that threatens your legal rights. He'll conduct his own investigation to look for evidence of negligence. He'll interview anyone who can provide information about what happened-including witnesses, passengers, and police officers and medical personnel who were on the scene. He will also examine all related documents-accident reports, medical records, repair estimates, driver logs. He may consult experts to examine the scene and determine how the accident happened.\nThat's why it's important to contact an attorney as soon as possible after your truck accident. We can act quickly to document the scene, preserve evidence and talk to the people involved while their memories of the accident are still fresh. For instance, trucking companies are only required to keep driver logs for six months - unless an attorney takes action. If you wait too long, the trucking company may destroy that critical piece of evidence.\nAttorney Edward McNelis will protect your rights and fight to get you the full compensation you deserve for your injuries, so you can focus on recovery. Many times, insurance companies will see how well-prepared our case is and negotiate a favorable settlement. But if they are not willing to be fair, we'll be ready to fight your case in court.\nIf you have any questions, visit our truck accident FAQ page and then talk to Edward. If you've been injured in a truck accident, you need an experienced attorney who won't back down on your side. Call today for your free consultation.\nWhen a large commercial truck rolls over, especially on the highway, it creates a massive hazard for everyone else on the road. Smaller vehicles are no match for a tractor-trailer that may swing out over multiple lanes of traffic. You or a loved one may have sustained serious injuries in such a collision, ranging from back and neck injuries to traumatic brain injuries.\nThere are many potential causes of rollover, but nearly all involve negligence. The trucker may have taken a turn or lane change at an unsafe speed, or the cargo may have been improperly loaded and caused the truck to become unbalanced. The truck itself may have been poorly maintained, causing steering issues. No matter what the cause, we\u2019ll conduct a thorough investigation to find out what happened and help you strike back.\nA tractor-trailer is said to \u201cjackknife\u201d when the trailer folds in toward the cab, creating a jackknife shape. These kinds of accidents can lead to serious injuries as cars are hit by the jackknifing trailer or collide with the truck as it comes to a stop blocking traffic. You may have even lost a loved one in a jackknife crash.\nJackknifing is usually a result of negligence or inexperience on the part of the truck driver. For instance, the driver may have been going too fast, swerved or suddenly applied the brakes. Occasionally, design defects or poor maintenance of the brake system can also lead to jackknifing. You need an experienced attorney on your side to find out what happened and strike back against the trucking company.\nSome of the most devastating truck accidents happen when a car, van, motorcycle or other small vehicle hits the rear or side of a tractor-trailer and actually slides underneath the trailer. In many of these cases, part of the trailer actually enters the cab of the smaller vehicle. Underride frequently causes serious, often fatal injuries, including brain injuries and loss of limbs.\nModern trucks are equipped with underride guards to prevent these sorts of crashes from happening, but those guards often fail. Depending on the circumstances of your underride accident, you may be able to pursue compensation from the trucking company or the manufacturer of the trailer. Our law firm will help you strike back.\nMost vehicles have blind spots, but tractor-trailers have much larger blind spots than passenger cars. Truckers are trained to compensate for their vehicle\u2019s \u201cNo-Zone\u201d and check before stopping, turning or changing lanes. But too many drivers fail in that responsibility and cause collisions with other cars.\nIf you were involved in a \u201cNo-Zone\u201d accident, be prepared for a fight. The trucking company will likely try to put the blame on you for driving in the larger vehicle\u2019s blind spot. But the reality is that truck drivers are held to higher standards than most motorists, and we\u2019re prepared to fight back against their tactics. Call our law firm today and strike back.\nTractor-trailers and other large commercial vehicles need more space to turn than passenger cars. Part of the reason a commercial driver\u2019s license (CDL) is required to operate these vehicles is to make sure that each driver understands how to effectively compensate for those wide turns. But some truck drivers are poorly trained or inexperienced, and others make risky maneuvers that put other motorists at risk.\nFew things on the highway are scarier than a fully loaded tractor-trailer swinging out and hitting your vehicle. If you were injured in a wide turn accident, contact us right away. We\u2019ll help you strike back against the trucking company.\nBeing hit from behind by a larger vehicle can be devastating. You have no time to react, and the force of impact is massive. Too often, drivers in passenger cars are ejected from their vehicles. These crashes can cause very serious, even fatal injuries in some cases, and you need an experienced advocate to help you strike back.\nIf you were hit from the back, we can help. We\u2019ll thoroughly investigate to find out whether your rear-end crash was caused by the truck driver\u2019s negligence, such as driving too fast, or by the trucking company or manufacturer. Moreover, we\u2019ll find out just how much the accident has affected your life, and we\u2019ll fight for the compensation you need to rebuild.\nTruckers work long hours and are behind the wheel for long stretches of time on end, which leaves them dangerously vulnerable to fatigue. That\u2019s why federal Hours of Service (HOS) regulations limit the number of hours truck drivers are supposed to spend behind the wheel. But too often, whether on their own initiative or due to pressure from the trucking companies, truckers work through their mandatory breaks and stay behind the wheel, causing serious collisions. Fatigued truckers can be especially dangerous because they often don\u2019t even hit the brakes before colliding with a smaller vehicle, meaning they\u2019re going at full speed at the moment of impact.\nOur law firm understands how to build strong cases to help people hurt by fatigued truckers strike back. We\u2019ll look at the accident scene, the Hours of Service log and the trucker\u2019s own statements to understand what happened, and we\u2019ll go to work to make sure you are compensated for your injuries.\nTruckers are very prone to distracted driving because they spend all of their working hours behind the wheel. Texting while driving is illegal for truck drivers nationwide, but some choose to break the law. And texting is only one type of distracted driving. Truck drivers also cause serious injuries while adjusting the radio, talking to dispatchers or eating and drinking behind the wheel.\nOur investigation will find the critical evidence to show that negligence on the part of the trucker or trucking company led to your crash. We\u2019ll talk to witnesses and review any applicable records and documentation to get to the bottom of what happened. And we\u2019ll build a strong case to show that the trucker was at fault \u2013 and that you need to be fairly compensated.\nEven though truck drivers are subject to strict rules regarding driving under the influence, some choose to break those laws. Drunk driving is always dangerous, but it\u2019s even more so when the drunk driver is behind the wheel of a tractor-trailer.\nAll trucking companies have policies in place to prevent drunk and drugged driving, but many do not adequately enforce those policies. Our investigation may also show that the trucking company failed to conduct a background check that would have turned up a history of drunk driving, or knowingly retained a driver despite a history of driving under the influence. We have the experience needed to strike back against those negligent companies and fight for the compensation you deserve.\nTruck drivers and trucking companies are responsible for keeping their vehicles in good working order. A poorly maintained truck is a danger not only to the driver, but also to everyone else on the road. Truckers are required to conduct a maintenance check every time they get behind the wheel, but under pressure to make deliveries faster, many rush through or even skip that check entirely. And trucking companies often put profits ahead of safety by failing to resolve critical safety issues, such as trouble with the engine or brakes.\nIf you have any reason to believe a maintenance issue contributed to your accident, we can help you strike back. We\u2019ll look at the trucker\u2019s statements and the truck\u2019s maintenance logs. We\u2019ll even interview mechanics and anyone else who worked on the truck to find the critical evidence that the trucking company\u2019s negligence caused the accident. And we\u2019ll fight for the compensation you need and deserve.\nTractor-trailers are difficult enough to maneuver at legal speeds. When truck drivers break the speed limit, they put everyone else at risk, not only because collisions become more likely but also because an impact at high speed will cause even more damage. But under pressure from the trucking companies to meet unrealistic delivery schedules or to earn more money for greater mileage, some truck drivers still choose to drive at unsafe speeds.\nWe\u2019ll move quickly to gather evidence after a crash involving a speeding truck. Our attorneys will take legal action to preserve the truck\u2019s \u201cblack box\u201d data, which should tell us the truck\u2019s speed at the time of the accident. We\u2019ll also talk to eyewitnesses and pore over police reports to see whether speed was identified as a factor. Our goal is to hold the negligent trucker accountable and, more importantly, help you get the fair compensation you need.\nIn some truck accidents, the cargo is as dangerous as the truck itself. Falling cargo could strike another vehicle directly or create a road hazard that causes an accident. And when the cargo in question is dangerous or hazardous material, the possibility of serious injuries is even greater.\nDepending on the circumstances, accidents involving unsecured cargo can be exceptionally complicated. Liable parties could include the trucking company, the owner of the cargo or the company that loaded the cargo. We\u2019ll fight to get to the bottom of what happened, and we\u2019ll help you strike back.",

        "raw_content": "Shayne Looper: When ideas collapse, people get hurt\nDrive into a city, Chicago, for example, and the first thing you will see is the skyline. From miles away you can see the Willis Tower, the Trump Hotel and Tower, and the Aon Center. But you cannot see the skyscrapers\u2019 foundations. Even if you stand next to one, its foundation will largely be invisible because most of it is underground \u2014 in some cases, descending 100 feet. Should the foundation be compromised, the skyscraper could topple.\nIdeas are, in a sense, like buildings: They are constructed on a foundation and without it they will collapse. This has certainly happened. In the 1980s, for example, the idea of cold fusion \u2014 creating nuclear reactions at relatively low temperatures \u2014 captured the attention of scientists. It held the promise of cheap and universal energy. But the idea was based on an unrepeatable experiment. It lacked a foundation.\nGo further back. Aristotle taught that life was spontaneously generated from inanimate matter. He based the hypothesis on the foundational ideas of earlier philosophers. But the foundation was not well-laid, and the idea eventually toppled.\nLike a city skyline, there is such a thing as a cultural skyline. It is not constructed from concrete and steel but from ideas. Some of these ideas can be very prominent but the foundation on which they are built is largely hidden. If it is well-built, the idea may be around for a long time. If not, it may come toppling down like Aristotle\u2019s spontaneous generation.\nOne of the ideas that stands out in society currently is that gender is, or at least can be, fluid. The idea is that a person can identify as a man or woman (or something else) at different times in his, her, or their lives. This idea has achieved prominence, particularly on college campuses, with their focus on protecting the rights of sexual minorities.\nGender fluidity is an idea, and, like all ideas, it is built on supporting ideas and based on a foundation. As regards gender fluidity, except in the case of intersex (formerly known as hermaphroditic) people, identity is not based on genetics (XX or XY chromosomes) but on feelings and desires.\nThe idea that we are what we feel has been around far longer than the idea of gender fluidity and is foundational to it. But do our feelings really define us? Do they make us who we are? The idea is certainly widespread, but is it true? Is it safe? Or has it led us into confusion, addiction, and other troubles? Will future generations think of this idea the way we now think of cold fusion and spontaneous generation?\nAnother prominent idea in the intellectual skyline of our society is that each person has a right to pursue his or her own happiness. This idea has been ensconced in our national consciousness by the Declaration of Independence. But Thomas Jefferson did not create the phrase or the idea. He took it (in all likelihood) from one of his favorite philosophers, John Locke. Locke, in turn, almost certainly borrowed the idea from Greek and Roman ethical philosophy, particularly from Aristotle\u2019s Nicomachean Ethics.\nWere Jefferson, Locke, or Aristotle to see the excesses and injustices that have been done under the banner of the right to the pursuit of happiness, they would be horrified. Locke realized that \u201cthe pursuit of true and solid happiness\u201d would sometimes require us \u201cto suspend the satisfaction of our desires,\u201d an idea that is not only foreign but is antithetical to present-day thinking. Aristotle linked happiness to living well and doing well. Jefferson himself wrote that while \u201chappiness (is) the aim of life,\u201d \u201cvirtue is the foundation of happiness.\u201d\nThe right to the pursuit of happiness, at least as the idea is usually presented in contemporary America, is not a higher story idea built on the same foundation on which Jefferson labored. People who claim it as justification for their behavior \u2014 \u201cI have a right to be happy, don\u2019t I?\u201d \u2014 may think they are standing on a Jeffersonian foundation, but they are badly mistaken.\nIdeas matter. The provenance of ideas matter. Poorly-founded ideas eventually collapse and, when they do, people get hurt.",

        "raw_content": "Home Medicine Public Health How Does eHealth Affect Children\u2019s Eating Habits?\nHow Does eHealth Affect Children\u2019s Eating Habits?\nA recent study published in Nutrition Journal examined the effects of eHealth interventions on the eating habits of children in Switzerland.\nAdults and children in Switzerland consume an excess of meat and an insufficient amount of fruits and vegetables. The country also has high incidences of obesity, with the highest rates in the state of Canton Ticino. There are many potential intervention options to improve healthy living, but one recommended by the World Health Organization (WHO) is social marketing. This tool uses marketing to induce beneficial changes in society, which in this case would be better health through avenues such as the internet.\nWhen information and communication technology are used for health, these technologies are termed eHealth. Some examples of eHealth are websites, short messaging service (SMS), and emails which provide healthy living information directly to consumers, and these have all been shown to have an impact on health behaviours. In the current study published in Nutrition Journal, researchers investigated the efficacy of various eHealth interventions in improving food consumption in children.\nAn online social marketing program, called Famiglia, Attivit\u00e0 fiscia, Nutrizone (FAN), was developed specifically for Ticino residents to improve their dietary habits. Eligibility criteria for this study included residency in Ticino, being proficient in Italian, having internet, a cell phone, and an email address, and finally, having school-going children in the first two years of high school or younger.\nFor the study, the researchers gave information packages to children at school to invite parents to use FAN. Following registration, parents completed an initial survey that asked questions about their children\u2019s eating habits and anthropometric measures. Upon completion of the survey the parents were assigned at random to one of three groups:\nReceiving information by web only\nReceiving information by web and email\nReceiving information by web and SMS\nBased on previous research demonstrating the ability of a Web intervention to improve health habits, the web-only group served as the control group.\nAs part of the intervention, individualized nutrition and exercise information was made available to parents on a website and children received mailed letters. The website showed recipes and tips on how to incorporate healthy alternatives into their lives but also had a theme each week. For the eight weeks of the study, themes with titles including \u201cYou are off to a good start and that is half the battle!\u201d and \u201cLunch and snacks with imagination\u201d were presented online. An online forum was also available for those involved to engage in discourse with each other as well as with a dietician. Additionally, participants in the Web and email or Web and SMS groups received messages summarizing the week\u2019s nutrition theme with a link to the website to remind families to go to the website.\nFruit and Water Consumption Increased\nFruit and water consumption increased across all groups similarly and soft drinks and sweets consumption decreased across all groups similarly. At the completion of the study, vegetable consumption was similar to baseline levels, with a significant increase in consumption only among those who received Web and SMS.\nThis study provided insight into the dietary habits of children in Ticino, where no data was previously available. However, a larger sample size is needed to truly apply the results to the whole population. The study had a high proportion of six-year-olds, but Ticino has a fairly even distribution of age groups, thus the study population was not representative of the population of children in Ticino. As the eHealth information was directed to the parents, future studies can investigate the effects on food consumption when children are directly given this intervention.\nReference: Rangelov, N., Bella, S.D., Marques-Vidal, P., and S, L.S.

        "raw_content": "Weight gain on the rise, but fewer adults attempting weight loss\nAlthough rates of overweight and obesity have risen over the past 30 years, fewer people are attempting to shed their excess weight. This is the conclusion of a new study recently published in JAMA.\nResearchers say that fewer overweight and obese adults are trying to lose weight.\nOverweight and obesity affect around two thirds of adults in the United States, putting them at increased risk of heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and other chronic diseases.\nA poor diet and lack of exercise are key contributors to weight gain, so it comes as no surprise that adopting a healthful diet and increasing physical activity can aid weight loss.\nHowever, new research finds that, despite a significant rise in overweight and obesity since the late 1980s, the percentage of adults in the U.S. who are trying to lose weight has fallen.\nStudy co-author Dr. Jian Zhang, of Georgia Southern University, and colleagues reached their findings by analyzing data of 27,350 adults aged between 20 and 59 years who participated in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey.\nAll participants were overweight or obese. Overweight was defined as having a body mass index (BMI) of 25 to under 30, while obese was defined as having a BMI of at least 30.\nStudy finds 7 percent fall in people trying to lose weight\nThe researchers assessed the prevalence of overweight and obesity among participants across three different time periods: 1988-1994, 1999-2004, and 2009-2014.\nAdditionally, the team monitored any weight loss attempts among participants during each time period, determined by the question: \"During the past 12 months, have you tried to lose weight?\"\nResults revealed that the prevalence of overweight and obesity rose by 13 percent, from 53 percent in 1988-1994 to 66 percent in 2009-2014.\nHowever, over the same period, the researchers found that the percentage of people who attempted to lose weight decreased by 7 percent, from 56 percent in 1988-1994 to 49 percent in 2009-2014.\nThe team found that black women had the highest obesity prevalence, and they also saw the largest reduction in weight loss attempts, reducing from 66 percent in 1988-1994 to 55 percent in 2009-2014.\nSocial acceptance of higher body weight could be to blame\nWhile the study is unable to pinpoint the reasons for the fall in weight loss attempts, the team speculates that it is down to increased social acceptance of higher body weights.\n\"Socially acceptable body weight is increasing. If more individuals who are overweight or obese are satisfied with their weight, fewer might be motivated to lose unhealthy weight,\" note the authors.\n\"The chronicity of obesity may also contribute,\" they add. \"The longer adults live with obesity, the less they may be willing to attempt weight loss, in particular if they had attempted weight loss multiple times without success.\"\nThe team says that one limitation of the study is the fact that data were self-reported, making them subject to inaccuracy.

These organisations will have their funding increased by $625,000 per year to provide for immunisation coordinators to target areas of lower immunisation coverage.\nAustralia's childhood immunisation rates were at a low of 53 per cent in the early 1990s. The rate is now more than 90 per cent.\nIn 1996, Commonwealth Government spending on vaccines was $13 million. Vaccine expenditure under the National Immunisation Program in 2004-05, was $285 million \u2013 a 22-fold increase.\nThe Government introduced the GPII Scheme in 1998 to significantly increase childhood immunisation levels.\nThe scheme aims to encourage 90 per cent of GP practices throughout Australia to fully immunise 90 per cent of children under seven years of age attending their practice.\nGeneral practitioners have always played an important role in meeting Australia\u2019s immunisation goals and the GPII Scheme has proven to be an effective tool in helping to boost childhood immunisation levels.",

While you wouldn't treat potential patients like you would a typical consumer, you still need to appeal to them online.

That means web design and development agencies are doing everything they can to ensure your site brings in patients by being among the first on a search engine results page. That's valuable real estate and you need to take advantage of it as much you can; that means using a professional medical website optimization team.\nOptimization and web design for doctors needs an expert touch. There are intricacies involved in the process that an average person wouldn't understand and small mistakes can come with big consequences. This is because an algorithm, one that changes regularly, determines your position in the search results. Medical practice website optimization teams keep up on those changes and ensure their work is in accordance with industry standards. Web optimization for doctors, hospitals and specialists includes everything from the written content to the way the site is built. Nothing can slip through the cracks and that's one of the biggest reasons to use professional advertising agencies.\nYou need think of your site as a method of advertising, though that might be difficult for you because it requires seeing your patients as consumers. You have to be able to sell yourself and your practice, however, which is something that professional optimization and web design for doctors makes much easier. Bringing in new patients online is the best way to grow your practice, particularly since so many searches are being done online and on mobile devices.\nSearch engine optimization for doctors requires a skilled hand and you will be glad you went with a professional agency instead of doing it yourself.

He\u2019s a guy who get righties out, too, so I you have a couple or righties in between a couple of lefties that\u2019s kind of a job for him. And every time he goes out and has success like he did last night, it makes him feel that much more removed from the surgery and he\u2019s that much more like an everyday player. And he\u2019s used to pitching late in games.\u201d\nO\u2019Flaherty seems ready for the back-to-back challenge if the 3-2 pitch to Granderson is any indication.\n\u201cThat\u2019s the pitch I try to throw every time,\u201d O\u2019Flaherty said with a laugh. \u201cIt always feels the same out of my hand. It just doesn\u2019t always go where you want it to like that.\u201d\nOr as reliever Dan Otero, who has the adjoining locker, said, \u201cthat was a filthy pitch.\u201d\nDerek Norris was out of the lineup Wednesday after Melvin said on Tuesday that the catcher has been dealing off and on with back pain.\nThe manager said Norris was feeling better and might be available to pinch-hit or catch later in the game, as necessary.\nJosh Donaldson, who has played a team-high 122 of 125 games this season, didn\u2019t start Wednesday with manager Bob Melvin hoping he could get his third baseman a couple of days off with an off-day coming up Thursday.\nDonaldson struck out three times Tuesday and has just two hits in his last 18 at-bats.\nMelvin said that after having Donaldson play every game of the last road trip, he was looking to give him a couple of days off, although he wouldn\u2019t rule out having him play in the later innings Wednesday if needed.\nAlberto Callaspo was the starter at third base, his 15th start there this season.\nThe A\u2019s will host the Chevron STEM ZONE Saturday, an exhibit that delves into the scientific concepts behind the game of baseball. Admission is free to fans with tickets to that night\u2019s game with the Angels. STEM is an acronym standing for science, technology, engineering and math, and STEM Zone is an educational program put together by Chevron and the A\u2019s.",

        "raw_content": "Ultra 2016 Shows Us That Sexual Harassment and Assault Are Still Very Real Issues at Music Festivals\nSexual assault at music festivals is a reality for many women.\nRyan Pfeffer | March 24, 2016 | 9:13am\nOf all the things I saw at Ultra this year \u2014 which included a man in a Hillary Clinton mask, a 50-ton fire-spewing spider, and porta-potties that were 87 percent urine \u2014 this was the most disturbing: I was walking up the path to the Live Stage behind a couple \u2014 one man, one woman. Both sides of the thick crowd rubbed past each other, a traffic pattern not unlike I-95 at rush hour. A young man approached from the opposite direction, and just as he passed the couple in front of me, he reached down with his left hand, grabbed the butt of the passing woman, and squeezed sharply, looking forward, not breaking stride. The woman snapped her head around but saw only bodies. The man she was with noticed her distress, and she shouted something in his ear. The two of them stood for a moment, glancing back at nothing but heads and torsos. With no one to aim their anger toward, they started slowly back up the hill \u2014 what else could they do?\nThat's one end of the spectrum.\nUltra Music Festival 2016 Day Three at Bayfront Park\nHere's the other: On the second day of Ultra, Saturday, March 19, a 25-year-old Brazilian tourist stumbled up the steps of the Metromover's Park West station \u2014 roughly a mile north of Bayfront Park \u2014 on her way home from the festival. Deemed too intoxicated to ride the Metromover, she was refused entry. Then, a witness saw 41-year-old Carl Lee Wilt, a Miami-Dade Transit supervisor, carry her limp body into a utility room. The witness flagged down police, who arrived in time to observe Wilt emerge from the closet, zipper down, the 25-year-old Ultra attendee unconscious on the ground behind him.\nOn Sunday, during a hearing for Wilt, Miami-Dade County Judge Nushin Sayfie said, \"This is why we shouldn't let our kids go to Ultra \u2014 right here.\" The statement caused controversy \u2014 and rightly so. It was a blatant act of victim-blaming. The subtext of Sayfie's statement implied that if only the victim hadn't attended Ultra and left in an inebriated state, she wouldn't have been assaulted. But that line of thought is dangerous and offensive. There is only one person to blame for the assault that happened at the Park West station: the alleged assailant, Carl Lee Wilt.\n\"We don't know specifically what Judge Sayfie meant by her comment, but we can say that our event organizers and internal security team, in conjunction with Miami Police and Fire, work very hard to provide a safe and secure event for our patrons as well as our neighboring residents and businesses,\" an Ultra spokesperson tells New Times. \"It is unfortunate that the victim happened to be one of our patrons, and our prayers go out to her for a full recovery.\"\nSexual assault is an omnipresent risk for women everywhere, but it's an elevated threat at music festivals, where it can take many shapes, often perpetrated with a disturbing nonchalance. There is an entire reality at music festivals, and within large crowds in general, visible only to women. Over my three days walking around Ultra's festival grounds, as a man, I was groped zero times. That's probably not true for hundreds if not thousands of women who found themselves attending Ultra this year. But there's no real way to know. Because although we have some police reports and other official documents to highlight sexual assault at music festivals, the vast majority of the perpetrators whose crimes aren't so easily provable disappear into the crowd.\nIs Ultra doing enough to raise awareness about sexual assault?\nThe Ultra 2016 arrest reports (67 arrests in total) show no charges for sexual assault. The alleged rape at the Metromover was not included in that count because it did not happen in the immediate vicinity of Ultra. Former Miami Beach Police Chief Ray Martinez was the festival's head of security this year. There were 300 Miami Police officers working the festival, and Ultra threw in another 350 of its own security guards.\n\"Event organizers expend significant resources in advancing drug and alcohol awareness and wellness campaigns including through onsite initiatives with various health and education partners,\" Ultra says. \"Moreover, the organizers employ hundreds of security guards and off-duty police officers to assure that the event is safe and secure. In fact, this year, organizers had a substantial reduction in reported disruptive activity, and our security service team diligently works to provide a secure environment for our patrons.\"\nThe total number of arrests at Ultra was down from last year, and when compared with the 244 arrests that happened at Beyond Wonderland \u2014 an EDM festival that took place in San Bernardino, California, Friday and Saturday \u2014 Ultra's security looks solid.\nStill, the way we view safety at music festivals is narrow. Drugs typically hijack any conversation about the danger of EDM and dance music festivals.\nBut the issue of sexual assault at these events has been gaining media traction within the past year. For the first time, Michigan's Electric Forest will provide a women-only campground in 2016, though the festival maintains its intention is not to protect against sexual assault, telling Thump, \"This was born not from any concerns about safety as much as wanting to nurture opportunities for connection and inspiration.\"\nOn Ultra's own website, in the info section underneath the \"Health and Wellness\" tab, there are three blurbs meant to help keep attendees safe. There is a paragraph about hydration, one about Ultra's zero-tolerance drug policy, and another with advice on how to \"help keep fellow festivalgoers safe,\" which advises:\nIf you see a person who is showing any signs of distress which may include: nausea, vomiting, headaches, confusion, blurred vision, racing heartbeat, shallow breathing, muscle tremors, inability to talk, discolored lips or has expressed to you that they are not feeling well, contact a security officer, a police officer, Fire Rescue personnel or an Ultra Music Festival Staff person for Medical Assistance immediately. Help us keep you safe and healthy.\nNowhere does it mention anything specific about sexual assault. Still, Ultra insists it is taking the necessary steps to protect its attendees. \"Event organizers maintain wellness and safety programs and initiatives aimed at actively and affirmatively safeguarding patrons from various dangers, including those relating to potential sexual assaults, and intends to continue their efforts in this regard.\"\nThere is no simple solution to the problem, and it's certainly no recent phenomenon. But helping to fix the atmosphere, at least at music festivals, begins with education and awareness.\nUltra, and other festivals like it, need to establish themselves as leaders in this process. If there were half as much literature and signage about sexual assault as there was about 7-Up at Ultra, it won't solve the problem outright, but it just might help start a much-needed conversation, one that will pay off in the future.",

        "raw_content": "The Rise of the Fake Cloud: It\u2019s Time to Get Real\nby Bart Nachimow | May 10, 2018 | Cloud | 0 comments\nSome ERP software vendors are sending solutions into the ring that aren\u2019t true contenders in the cloud marketplace. Thanks to savvy marketing, they look like \u201ctrue cloud\u201d solutions and promise to deliver the distinct advantages of \u201ctrue cloud\u201d solutions, but\u2026they\u2019re not. We have seen too many businesses make the mistake of signing on with an ERP software vendor claiming to run their hosted offerings in the cloud, only to discover their cloud isn\u2019t really a cloud at all.\nNeed help making sense of it all? Keep reading as we explore the realities of true cloud computing.\nBusiness Software Faceoff: Real Cloud vs. Fake Cloud\nThe cloud software marketplace has been exploding for several years now, as more companies catch on to the distinct advantages of migrating their business processes, applications, and data off-premise and into the cloud. It\u2019s no wonder that some legacy software vendors\u2014in an effort to stay relevant in a changing marketplace\u2014have made a few tweaks to their service models and marketing strategies to appear \u201ccloudier\u201d than they are.\nA word to the wise: \u201ccloud\u201d doesn\u2019t always mean \u201ccloud\u201d and \u201coff-premise\u201d isn\u2019t synonymous with \u201ccloud-based\u201d\u2014unless you\u2019re working with a true, multi-tenant, single-code software-as-a-service (SaaS) provider such as Acumatica, Dynamics 365, or NetSuite.\nHere\u2019s what holds true for real cloud solutions:\nThey\u2019re built from the ground-up for the cloud. They\u2019re coded to work as fully hosted solutions\u2014accessible through the web on any connected computer or device\u2014and managed across hundreds of servers and multiple levels of data redundancy.\nThey\u2019re multi-tenant, single code. The beauty of a true cloud solution is that it leverages shared resources, wherein development and service costs are spread across multiple customers who access the same solution (the same version of the same code) from the same cloud. This means any time there\u2019s a software enhancement or bug fix, everyone is brought up-to-date automatically, at the same time, with minimal (if any) downtime. And there\u2019s no such thing as \u201cversion lock\u201d in true cloud solutions because even customizations upgrade seamlessly.\nThey\u2019re inherently scalable. Due to their architecture and shared tenancy delivery model, cloud solutions can be scaled up and down (although usually up!) to accommodate growth and innovation, as processing capacity and business requirements change. Adding new functionality and users is relatively simple, affordable, and quick, in keeping with the promise of agility.\nThey\u2019re innately flexible. They\u2019re customizable and easily integrated with other on-premises and cloud-based applications so businesses can configure their systems to work they way they need them to work\u2014and to deliver the data they need for 360-degree operational and financial insights. What\u2019s more, customizations and integrations don\u2019t have to be re-configured after software updates, creating a seamless and consistent user experience.\nFind more insights in Checklist: What to Expect in a Cloud-Based ERP System.\nOn the other hand, the cloudiness of fake cloud solutions are distinctly hazy. Here\u2019s what makes them not-quite-true-cloud contenders:\nThey\u2019re built as on-premise systems. Their software was likely created before the cloud was born, and therefore meant to live on customers\u2019 hardware and servers. To make it more accessible and cloudlike, however, vendors and/or infrastructure services companies will remotely host the software on their customers\u2019 behalf in third-party data centers. But it\u2019s still, by and large, the same legacy software\u2014it just lives off-premise.\nThey\u2019re single-tenant, multiple code. While customers on a true cloud solution use the same version of software that\u2019s automatically updated en masse, fake cloud customers continue to access their own, independent version of the software that needs to be maintained and supported independently by their vendor or third-party. Keeping everyone\u2019s custom code up-to-date and working properly isn\u2019t a scalable process for either party, resulting in the potential for increased costs, extra system downtime, and less frequent updates.\nThey\u2019re not built for scalability. Legacy systems\u2014even in their fake clud iterations\u2014require the up-front license, hardware, and software fees that are virtually eliminated by the true cloud delivery model, so adding new functionality and users isn\u2019t as easy as adjusting their SaaS package. Additionally, since architecture wasn\u2019t built for the swift evolution of today\u2019s business, so they can\u2019t deliver the swift upgrades customers tend to expect from a modern (true) cloud ERP solution.\nThey\u2019re innately inflexible. Fake cloud solutions are built on legacy code that tends to require costly and labor-intensive re-writes for customizations and integrations. As expressed in the other points, there\u2019s nothing particularly flexible about software that wasn\u2019t built in and for cloud computing\u2014so any comparison is really just \u201capples and oranges.\u201d\nIf you\u2019re moving your company\u2019s data out of a legacy environment or starting fresh with an ERP system, make sure you know what you\u2019re getting into\u2014and don\u2019t make assumptions about the \u201ccloud\u201d offerings being considered.

        "raw_content": "Superior Data-at-Rest Encryption\nAccording to IDC\u2019s recently released predictions \u2013 by 2022, 50% of servers will encrypt data at rest and in-motion. Data security has become one of the highest priorities for data centers and cloud computing environments as they seek to safeguard customer information, classified company documentation and communications, financial records, employee payroll records, and other confidential data.\nSolutions for data-at-rest encryption are now a security requirement in many market segments such as health care, finance, e-commerce, federal government branches, and insurance\u2014representing a significant overall percentage of the deployed storage. In fact, government legislation is now in place mandating data security and privacy, such as the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, Gramm\u2013Leach\u2013Bliley Act, Sarbanes\u2013Oxley Act, and the European Union General Data Protection Regulation. Even with these new regulations, McAfee estimated that the cost of cybercrime and data breaches was over $600 billion in 2017.\nData center managers have the daunting task of safeguarding data while still meeting continually-increasing performance demands for large-scale applications such as web serving, file serving, databases, online transaction processing (OLTP), machine learning, and high-performance computing (HPC).\nMany data center managers are already turning to encryption to safeguard data. Encryption is a method of encoding information so that it can only be read by using the proper key. The encryption process can be software-based or hardware-based. While the CPU is responsible for powering software-based encryption, hardware-based encryption is performed within a chip located on the drive itself or on the storage adapter.\nThe three main types of encryption include software-based encryption, hardware-based self-encrypting drives (SEDs) and hardware-based encryption-enabled storage adapters. Software encryption comes at the expense of valuable CPU resources. Self-encrypting drives offer a high-performance hardware-based solution, but require significant operational overhead and do not provide the security and flexibility of controller-based encryption.\nEncryption-enabled storage adapters, however, provide many advantages over software-based or hardware-based encryption. On an encryption-enabled storage adapter, the encryption/decryption process takes place independent of the CPU and OS, using a chip on the adapter instead of the drive, having little or no impact on latency or I/O performance.\nOther advantages of encryption-enabled storage adapters include:\n\u2022 Transparent to the host operating system and host CPU\n\u2022 One adapter encrypts multiple drives, reducing capital expenses and deployment complexity\n\u2022 Compatible with all brands of SAS and SATA HDDs and SSDs where a RAID volume is supported, spanning one or multiple drives\n\u2022 Allows data centers to deploy a uniform, scalable encryption strategy across the entire enterprise\n\u2022 Data is encrypted on the storage subsystem, avoiding data snooping on the adapter cache, attached cables, or expanders, all the way to the media of the drive\n\u2022 Allows for selective encryption enablement and unique encryption keys per logical volume\n\u2022 Support for data-in-place encryption while the volume remains accessible during the encryption\nMaxCrypto\u2122 controlled-based encryption is now available on the on the industry\u2019s first readily available adapter \u2013 the Microsemi Adaptec SmartRAID 3162-8i/e.\nWith the growing responsibility of safeguarding sensitive information, using controlled-based encryption to encrypt data-at-rest ensures that unauthorized parties will not be able to read the data when drives are removed (either intentionally or unintentionally). MaxCrypto\u2122 controller-based encryption delivers the highest levels of data protection with minimal impact on latency. It integrates seamlessly into existing storage infrastructures and allows data centers to deploy a uniform, scalable encryption strategy across the entire data center.\nTo learn more about maxCrypto\u2122 controller-based encryption, please visit us at www.microsemi.com/smartstorage or connect with me on LinkedIn.\nTags: Controller Based Encryption, Data at Rest, Data Center, Storage Adapters\nThis entry was posted by Dave Steele on Monday, December 3rd, 2018 at 6:24 am and is filed under Data Center, Storage.

What can I do to get him to speak more?\nHe obviously has his reasons and will open up when he feels comfortable enough. You can't force someone to speak about things they aren't comfortable with, because that isn't fair. Does he compel you to speak about things you don't want to?\nMy boyfriend and I have been together for 12 years. We have always had a good time with each other, but the problem is trust. He has always lied and cheated and says we should end it whenever I confront him. I don't want to lose him because I love him. He doesn't take my calls and, apart from sex, we have no communication or trust. He has good friends, but I don't have a single friend in my life. When he is with friends, he ignores me. What should I do? Should I just break up with him or tell him how I feel about this relationship?\n\u2014 Simran S\nIt seems as if your boyfriend is taking you for granted, to be honest. If he has been cheating on you for over a decade and assumes you will accept it because you have all this time, you are doing yourself a disservice and simply encouraging him to go out and lie again. If he wants to end it, why don't you? It doesn't seem as if he takes you seriously enough because, if he did, he wouldn't cheat on you. Also, if you haven't told him how you feel about this relationship after being with him for 12 years, it doesn't sound like a strong, healthy bond. Relationships are more than just physical intimacy. This just sounds like a one-sided relationship of convenience that allows him to have sex with you and commit to nothing else. Do a bit of introspection, be honest with yourself and make a decision that is right for you.\nThe inbox is now open to take your most carnal and amorous queries.

The main symptoms are usually presented for the first time immediately after birth, while they continue through childhood and adulthood. These may include spasms, encephalopathy, failure to thrive, chronic diarrhea, enlarged liver, bone disorders, hypoglycemia, elevated uric acid, cholesterol, triglyceride and Lp(a) levels, etc.\nAs noted by the Department Director, Dr Euridiki Drogari, Associate Professor of Pediatrics at the University of Athens & Honorary Professor of Metabolic Medicine at University College London (UCL) Specielist in Inborn Metabolic Diseases, \u201cMITERA Children\u2019s Hospital has all the latest treatments available, in line with international standards, and offers comprehensive diagnosis based on the clinical condition of the neonate or older children/adolescents, as well as through medical exams, such as additional neonatal screening, biochemical, metabolic, lipid and molecular testing. This ensures accurate diagnosis and symptomatic treatment of various inherited metabolic conditions. In special cases, the samples may be forwarded to dedicated centers abroad for testing.\u201d\nThe MITERA Children\u2019s Hospital Endogenous Metabolic Diseases & Inherited Lipid Disorders Department runs two separate regular clinics, by appointment:\nInherited Lipid Disorder Clinic \u2013 This Clinic mainly performs early detection of atheromatous vascular disease in children from young age. The aim is to avoid, to the extent possible, conditions that may develop in young adulthood, such as myocardial coronary disease, stroke, etc. The most common inherited disorder is familial hypercholesterolemia, which is the most common genetic disease worldwide, with an incidence of 1:250 childbirths Therefore, it is necessary for children to undergo their first tests for cholesterol triglycerides, HDL, LDL and Lp(a) in the 2nd \u2013 3rd year of their lives, when their cholesterol levels have stabilized.\nInborn Metabolic Diseases Clinic \u2013 Special treatment is required for rare Inborn Metabolic Diseases, once they have been accurately diagnosed. There are many metabolic diseases (around 700) and they are usually underdiagnosed. Diagnosis is performed in collaboration with other specialists, such as neurologists, developmental specialists, liver specialists, gastroenterologists, cardiologists, kidney specialists, dietitians, etc.\nMITERA Children\u2019s Hospital: Educational Course on the Diagnosis & Treatment of Developmental Dysplasia of the Hip\nMITERA Children\u2019s Hospital: Model Interventional Program for Childhood Obesity with Active Participation of Parents and Children\nMITERA Children\u2019s Hospital: Pediatric Postgraduate Event\nMITERA Children\u2019s Hospital: Monitoring Program for Cancer Survivors",

        "raw_content": "WS outreach helps aid victims of Calif. wildfires\nCommissioner Manfred, Dodgers alumni pack care packages\nLOS ANGELES -- Commissioner Rob Manfred and Dodgers legends Orel Hershiser, Steve Garvey, Ron Cey and Nomar Garciaparra joined kids from the Boys & Girls Clubs of Metro Los Angeles and others on Wednesday morning to pack supply and comfort kits for victims of the Northern California wildfires -- part of Major League Baseball's broad involvement during this World Series to assist in the aftermath of so many recent natural disasters.\n\"I think this is one example of how our clubs and Major League Baseball are embedded in part of the communities in which they function,\" Manfred said. \"It's a great chance to give back to people who are suffering really tragic losses as a result of a natural disaster.\n\"We have a great, deep relationship with the Boys & Girls Clubs of America as our official charity. The great thing about an event like this is that it teaches kids that ethic of giving back to their communities. ... I hope that they see role models like Orel Hershiser and Nomar Garciaparra doing something for their community and they take away the lesson that no matter what you do in life, it's important to give something back.\"\nThe Northern California wildfires began burning Oct. 8-9, spreading across Napa, Lake, Sonoma, Mendocino and Butte Counties after powerful wind gusts. They burned about 245,000 acres and destroyed 8,400 structures. The 15 wildfires decimated neighborhoods, schools and businesses, leaving many families in limbo.\nThe supply kits that were packed at the Boys & Girls Clubs of Metro Los Angeles Challenger Clubhouse before Game 2 of the World Series presented by YouTube TV will be distributed by Rebuilding Together (Petaluma) to those in need, while comfort kits will be donated to Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Santa Rosa & Boys & Girls Clubs of Central Sonoma County.\nOn Thursday, MLB and the Astros will be helping Hurricane Harvey flood victims with a similar community event there, part of an important theme.\nTweet from @BGCMLA: With the support of @MLB & @Dodgers we were able to put together care packages for families affected by NorCal wildfires #ThisTeam #BGCMLA pic.twitter.com/rXBM9iPrNY\nJackie Robinson Foundation Scholars & Alumni were part of the volunteer event in Los Angeles. Dignitaries also included Tom Brasuell, MLB's vice president of community affairs; Frank Sanchez, BGCA national vice president of sports, entertainment and alumni development; Calvin Lyons, CEO of Boys & Girls Clubs of Metro Los Angeles; and Carlos Polanco, the 2017-18 BGCA National Youth of the Year.\nAll those who packed kits, including Manfred and the MLB contingent, signed a placard that will accompany the gifts. It read:\n\"On behalf of Major League Baseball, the Boys & Girls Clubs of Metro Los Angeles, Jackie Robinson Foundation Scholars, the Dodgers and the Los Angeles Dodgers Foundation, we offer you our deepest sympathies on the wildfires which have recently affected your community. We've provided a few packages to give you comfort during these difficult times. As far as we may seem, we are here thinking of you and sending our prayers.\"\n\"The most important thing is to know that this goes on on a daily basis throughout the year with Major League Baseball, with the Dodgers, with everybody involved,\" Hershiser said. \"It's really important to do it during the World Series, because it brings more attention to it. As far as doing this and having the kids help out, because of the different disasters, it's important.\"\nDodgers legends spoke about the importance of giving, especially on the giant platform of the Fall Classic, and they also were asked about this Dodgers team returning a World Series to the organization for the first time since 1988.\n\"I think this 2017 team is more talented than we were, but if you can do it in the moment with talent, that's outstanding,\" said Hershiser, whose incredible consecutive-innings scoreless streak was a highlight during the 1988 title run. \"We did it in the moment with a little less talent, and still won a world championship.\"\nHershiser said he was especially happy for the ace of the modern Dodgers. Clayton Kershaw was the winning pitcher in Game 1 on Tuesday, dominant over seven innings in the 3-1 victory over Houston.\n\"For him to dominate for seven innings, 11 strikeouts, no walks, 83 pitches, I think 58 strikes, he went out there and for me he was totally in control from the very first pitch,\" Hershiser said. \"I love the fact that he started pitching right away, in a do-or-die type game when it's Game 1 of the World Series and you can put your team on the right foot. You don't want to save things for the second time around the order, you don't want to save things to have a complete game and have something left in your holster. He went right to pitching. He established his curveball in the first inning, established both sides of the plate, the slider had great depth.\"\nCey, who played in four World Series and won a ring in 1981, said he anticipates a tough slog in this series, featuring a pair of teams with triple-digit win totals.\n\"I expect Houston to be resilient and come back,\" he said. \"One game with the adversity that they've faced through the course of the year, being in a number of elimination games, I don't think it's going to deter them. We have to stay on top of it, come out and play like we're starting from scratch again, don't give them the opportunity to feel like they have a chance, take care of business and bring home a world championship.\"\nCey and Garciaparra went to Boys & Girls Clubs when they were young. Cey said Wednesday's event was a reminder of what the Dodgers do year-round.\n\"It's part of what the Dodgers have been doing for as long as I've been associated with them,\" he said. \"It's an effort to help out in the community when we have victims who are surviving like they are in Northern California with wildfires, and in other parts of our country that have been hit with hurricanes or whatever. These people are suffering and in need, and we're just doing our best to help them along with these care packages. And hopefully they appreciate it, because it's a difficult time for these people.\"\nMark Newman is enterprise editor of MLB.com and a baseball writer since 1990.

        "title": "Mariners' Nelson Cruz drives in five vs. A's | MLB.com",
        "raw_content": "Paxton, Cruz help Mariners end home skid\nBy Greg Johns and Josh Horton MLB.com\nSEATTLE -- Nelson Cruz launched his 300th career homer in a three-hit, five-RBI night and James Paxton made it stand up for the Mariners with a strong seven-inning outing as Seattle topped the A's, 7-2, to snap a four-game losing streak.\nPaxton outdueled Oakland's Sean Manaea in a battle of quality left-handers, as the Mariners avoided a ninth straight setback at Safeco Field that would have been their second-longest home losing streak in franchise history.\n\"Paxton was really, really good tonight,\" Seattle manager Scott Servais said. \"We saw a different James Paxton in the last two innings. He just went and turned up the dial and that's what top of the rotation starting pitching does.\"\nVideo: OAK@SEA: Paxton fans nine over seven innings in win\nMarcus Semien's two-run double in the third was the only damage done to Paxton, who allowed just two hits and two runs in improving to 7-3 with a 3.21 ERA. Paxton equaled his season high with nine strikeouts.\n\u2022 Semien finding his timing\nManaea (7-5, 3.76 ERA) countered with seven innings of three-run ball as he gave up eight hits, including Cruz's second RBI single of the game in the third, followed by the go-ahead sacrifice fly by Kyle Seager.\n\"I'll tell you what, all things considered, he gave us seven innings when it didn't look like he'd give us four, and he really only should have given up one run,\" A's manager Bob Melvin said. \"There are times that he looks like he doesn't have his good stuff and he ends up pitching like that. For a young kid, he's come a long way in how he's able to battle and get through tough stretches. He pitched well enough to win that game, for sure.\"\nVideo: OAK@SEA: Manaea induces inning-ending double play\nCruz broke the game open with a three-run blast off reliever Liam Hendriks in the eighth, with his five RBIs moving him past Yankees rookie Aaron Judge for the American League lead with 68.\nWith just their third win in the past 12 games, the Mariners are now 42-46, while the A's saw a three-game win streak end as they dropped to 38-49 with two games remaining before the All-Star break.\nSome sizzle on those singles: Cruz has been dealing with a sore right knee for the last few days, but that hasn't kept Seattle's slugger from scorching the ball. The All-Star designated hitter ripped an RBI single in the first with an exit velocity of 116.2 mph, the hardest-hit ball for a hit by a Mariner this year. The previous best was 114 mph by Cruz and Danny Valencia. It was the second-hardest hit ball by Cruz since Statcast\u2122 began measuring in 2015. He added a 108.7 mph RBI single in the third, which was the second-hardest hit ball of the game until his home run, which registered at a healthy 113.7 mph and carried 433 feet.\n\"It was only fitting that our four-hole hitter carried us tonight,\" said Servais. \"Awesome night by him. He was locked in the whole night. The at-bats were good and the home run late was exactly what the doctor ordered.\" More >>\nVideo: OAK@SEA: Cruz notches five RBIs and 300th home run\nCano steals the go-ahead run: After the Mariners tied the game at 2 in the third on Cruz's second RBI single of the game, Robinson Cano scored the go-ahead tally on a bit of an odd sacrifice fly by Seager. With the bases loaded and one out against Manaea, Seager lofted a fly ball to Rajai Davis in center field. Cano faked going home, or at least appeared to be faking. But when Davis held the ball, Cano kept going and turned on the speed enough to slide home for a 3-2 lead before Davis reacted and fired the ball in to catcher Ryan Lavarnway.\n\"It wasn't a very deep fly ball,\" Servais said. \"He came off the bag and kept his head up. We've talked about keeping your head up and take what's there. If it's not there, don't push the envelope. It was a nice play.\"\n\"[Rajai Davis] just thought there were two outs,\" Melvin said.\nVideo: OAK@SEA: Seager plates Cano with a sac fly\n\"[He looked] pretty good. He's got a big curveball to go along with a pretty hard four-seamer. He's pretty effective with the breaking ball. He's also got a cutter and a changeup, too. He did pretty well tonight.\" - Semien on Paxton\n\"Those last two innings, I just reached back and let it rip. I think it was real important to get this one tonight and hopefully get us on the right track for the next couple days so we can go into the break strong.\" -- Paxton\nA's: Chris Smith is making his first Major League start at 36 for the A's 7:10 p.m. PT start. Smith, who has pitched in the big leagues previously as a reliever, is the oldest pitcher to make their first Major League start in A's franchise history at 36 years, 90 days\nMariners: Andrew Moore (1-1, 3.60 ERA) makes his third Major League start in Saturday's 7:10 p.m. PT game against the A's. The 23-year-old right-hander has been impressive in his first two outings and went eight innings with five hits and three runs allowed in his last appearance, but took a 3-1 loss to the Royals.\nJosh Horton is a reporter for MLB.com based in Seattle. He covered the A's on Friday.\nRead more: Oakland Athletics, Seattle Mariners",

It is acquired as an in-app purchase for the first episode. It starts right away from the end of the first episode, when Hope is captured and interrogated by her guardian Mireille Prideaux. During the interview an unknown Prizrak enters and takes out Mireille, offering Hope a chance to escape. This episode mostly focuses on the character the Librarian. Most intelligence items that are scanned reveal his background and how he came to work for the Overseer. As Treglazov has built a museum in his own honour, a lot of his history is revealed as well. Most of the game takes place in a new location, the library, and various rooms connected to it. As it ties into the first episode with the Metroidvania concept, it is possible to return to any location from the first episode as well.\nThe basic gameplay is identical to the first episode. The player does not control Hope directly, but instead she contacts the player through her phone. Cameras and hacking skills are then used to guide her around. The OMNI View interface can be upgraded to level two in this episode, providing new rooms to access, as well as certain locations from the first episode. This episodes introduces a new type of guard who cannot be taken down using a taser. His patrols are also wider, erratic and more varied, leading to surprising encounters. Guards who are alerted are sometimes also able to call in another guard. The Data Broker offers one new ability, X-Ray, to see guards through walls. At the start there is a new button called Helpdesk in the OMNI interface to review the current objective. There is also a new indicator on the screen showing the general direction of the destination and the distance, so it is not always necessary to open the map.\nTypical game elements that return are the collectibles (intelligence, banned books, game cartridges and Zager tapes). There are also two puzzles, one based on the order of statues and another solved by answering questions about Treglazov's past to retrieve a pin code, by reviewing the information from the museum. At certain moments Hope can review video footage and the player can choose to let her see a gruesome event or not. Near the end of the episode a new mechanic based on lasers is introduced, as well as using 3D printing to create an item that provides additional access.\nR\u00e9publique series\nSciere (532850) added R\u00e9publique: Episode 2 - Metamorphosis (Fire OS) on Mar 15, 2016",

        "raw_content": "Artikel, Publicatie, Wetenschappelijk\nIn policy and research, migration and the welfare state are often seen as being at odds. When \u2018strangers\u2019 enter the welfare state, the financial and social foundations of solidarity are said to crumble. A prominent question, therefore, is whether immigrants should have the same rights as the autochthonous population. Within this frame, migrants are often \u2018objects\u2019. This paper reports on qualitative research exploring what different types of labour migrants themselves think about the Dutch welfare state in general, and about giving social rights to immigrants, in particular. The differences in national backgrounds and levels of education in labour migrants\u2019 views are striking: lower-educated Turkish and Polish migrants show little interest in the welfare state, whereas higher-educated Western Europeans seek welfare state security. Higher-educated Indian migrants find the welfare state a totally new concept, although after a while some come to appreciate it. A significant proportion of the questioned migrants, moreover, believe that people should not be entitled to welfare state rights immediately upon arrival. They favour \u2018earned citizenship\u2019, with the welfare state being a \u2018contribution state\u2019, but stress that migrants should not have to wait too long before being entitled to such rights. The paper also suggests new topics for further research in the increasingly important field of migration, diversity and the welfare state.",

        "raw_content": "Pongal - Celebrations and Significance\nPongal is one of the most pious and significant festivals of South India which is also popular by its other famous name i.e. Harvest festival. The festival is primarily celebrated in Tamil Nadu but it is also celebrated in various other regions of India with much happiness and fervor. It is a 4-day long festivity which is carried out with a lot of passion, zeal and immense enthusiasm.\nThe festival of Pongal celebrates the divine blessings of the deity Sun which leads to prosperity in the life of the people because of a good harvest. The name of the festival is derived from a famous sweet dish which is usually prepared on the eve of Pongal and is offered to the deity in order to worship them.\nHow Pongal is Celebrated?\nThis colorful and joyous festival is celebrated in the Thai month which is the 10th Tamil month. The festivity initiates from the last day of Margazhi month and is concluded on the very 3rd day of the Thai month as per Tamil calendar. As per the Gregorian calendar, the day is usually celebrated on any date between 13th January to 16th January.\nWhat is The Story of Pongal?\nOne of the most significant legends associated with the festival of Pongal is of Lord Krishna. Once Lord Indra who is the God of rains out of rage and agitation flooded Gokul. At that time, Lord Krishna came for the rescue and saved all the villagers and entire Gokul by lifting up the Govardhan Parvat on just one finger. To this, Lord Indra accepted his mistake and soon sought forgiveness from the deity and thus redeemed the happiness, peace, and prosperity of Gokula.\nAnother popular and well-known legend associated with the festival is the story of Nandi, the sacred bull of deity Shiva. Once, Lord Shiva asked Nandi to preach a message to the people living on the Earth that they should take a bath on daily basis and must consume food or eat only once in an entire month. But instead of preaching this message, Nandi preached the opposite message that people should take bath only once in a month and must eat daily. To this. Lord Shiva got angry and ordered Nandi to reside on Earth and support human beings in harvesting so that they can get an adequate amount of crops or food for them so that everyone can eat every day.\nAlso See: Maha Shivaratri Story\nWhat are The Rituals of Pongal?\nThe festivity continues for 4 days and the rituals are performed with much devotion, happiness and fervor.\n1st Day: Bhogi Pongal\nThis day is primarily devoted to Lord Indra. Devotees light a sacred bonfire in front of their residences and then burn their old stuff and old clothes in it. All the devotees clean their homes and then beautifully adorn them with kolams which are made up of red-colored mud and red-flour paste. For decoration purpose, pumpkin flowers and cow dung is also used as they are regarded as highly sacred.\n2nd Day: Surya Pongal / Thai Pongal\nThis day is primarily devoted to Sun God. It is the very first day of the Thai month of Tamil. Devotees cook \u2018Pongal\u2019 which is a traditional sweet dish made up of lentils and rice which are boiled in jaggery and milk. The sweet dish is then offered to the deity Sun.\n3rd Day: Mattu Pongal\nThis day is primarily devoted to the cattle which are regarded as a significant aspect of the agricultural world. The oxen and cows are offered bath and then adorned with flowers, garlands, beautiful clothes and ornaments and then Pongal are offered to them. On this auspicious day, Bullfight is one of the major parts of the festivities which enhance the spirit and fervor of Pongal.\n4th Day: Kanya Pongal / Kaanum Pongal\nThis is the concluding day of the festival on which all the sisters pray and worship the deities for good health, happiness, well-being, and success of their brothers. This particular day is also dedicated to birds and rice is cooked in order to feed them.\nAlso See: When is Makar Sankranti Festival\nWhich famous dishes are prepared on the eve of Pongal?\nFood is the essence of Pongal which signifies prosperity, good health, and happiness. There are some particular authentic dishes which are prepared on the auspicious and grand eve of Pongal such as Khara Pongal, Sakkarai Pongal, Murukku, Vadai, and Paal Payasam.",

        "raw_content": "There is a human tendency to put excessive emphasis on what\u2019s directly in front of us \u2013 the here and now. This is a habit that is easily exacerbated in today\u2019s headline-driven, media-saturated world. For example, this summer we\u2019ve seen seemingly endless news coverage about many political and economic issues. Like the attraction of a shiny object, these dramatic headlines can, at times, distract us or overtake our capacity to see what lies further down the road. One reason that this is the case is because of another human tendency, to think in linear terms, processing information sequentially. Quite simply, we often put too much focus on facts directly in our view without being able to think \u201coutside the box\u201d, or consider other possibilities for the future.\nWhat is striking about this reality of human nature is how many investors are overlooking a key story that\u2019s not in the headlines \u2013 the emergence of one of the most innovative and transformational periods in history. Life, as we know it, will change dramatically in the coming decades due to a wide range of scientific and technological advancements. In a time when it is easy to get lost in the headlines, it is essential to note that forward thinking is essential for successful investors.\nThe pace of human advancement over the past century-and-a-half has been nothing less than mind-boggling. Consider that within the span of a single lifetime (66 years) we went from the Wright brothers at Kitty Hawk to landing men on the moon. It is a reminder of how quickly things can change, and how concepts that would be considered unimaginable just a few generations ago are almost taken for granted today.\nIf you thought the breakthroughs of Thomas Edison, the Wright brothers, Robert Goddard, and Bill Gates were impressive, we believe that the best is yet to come. Breathtaking achievements are evolving at an amazing pace.\nPatience before profits\nIt isn\u2019t unusual for innovators to be met by waves of skepticism about their ideas. A number of the greatest advancements in U.S. history were not readily marketable because they were so ahead of their time. The seeding and nurturing of what ultimately transforms into breakthrough technologies that define a generation and change the way we live often require public investment at the outset. The government often underwrites the incubation stage of ideas that will later thrive through private investment. There are numerous examples of industries that changed the direction of the U.S. economy with initial government support. For example:\nRailroads transformed 19th century America, but it wouldn\u2019t have happened without the land given by the government to railroad companies, equal at the time (in the 1860s) to more than 5% of the country\u2019s land mass.\nIn the 1920s, the government encouraged development of commercial airline services by paying private companies to deliver air mail. Government incentives ultimately encouraged the private sector to pursue larger, safer and quieter planes that would spur the commercial aviation industry.\nPresident Dwight Eisenhower promoted the interstate highway system in the 1950s. This and government investment in highways and streets at the state and local level had a major impact on our car culture and the booming automobile industry.\nSilicon Valley is considered the cradle of American technological innovation, but again, many initiatives, from chip technology to the development of the Internet to today\u2019s pursuit of new advances in quantum computing were nurtured with the help of government funding\nWhile public investment in the infant stages of certain industries can be critical, the reality is that government is generally not effective at guiding new technologies to commercial success. Nor should it be. This is where capitalism comes into play, and provides an avenue for investors to profit.\nRiding the cost curve\nAs nascent technologies evolve and mature, the costs associated with innovative ideas are reduced, making private investment more feasible as the technology achieves the potential for commercial viability. The free markets shine when innovation meets capitalism to help move advancements even further, creating practical applications that attract consumers and businesses and advance society.\nFor investors, the initial skepticism of the markets toward innovative concepts can represent an investment opportunity. Like any kind of value investment, attractive firms that have not yet achieved fair value in the market offer long-term upside potential. The key is not to invest in fantastical stories, but rather to invest in attractively valued businesses that are positioned to prosper from new developments.\nThe current surge of private space ventures is a prime example of innovation reaching the potential for commercial viability. It all started with NASA. It is notable that the phrase \u201cexploration leads to commerce\u201d was written into NASA\u2019s founding charter when it was established in 1958. NASA ended the space shuttle program in 2011, but handed out billions of dollars in new contracts to private companies to move people and materials into space. Now the space \u201cindustry\u201d is beginning to make its mark. What is now an estimated $350 billion market is projected to grow to nearly a $3 trillion market over the next 30 years1. The Wikipedia entry for private space companies is eight pages long, something unfathomable at the time of the Apollo 11 space landing nearly a half century ago.\nThe expense of sending rockets, and eventually, people into space has dropped considerably. Colonizing Mars is clearly on the agenda of some prominent entrepreneurs. India\u2019s government recently spent about $70 million to launch an unmanned rocket to Mars. Incredibly, this was less expensive than the reported cost to produce the Matt Damon movie, The Martian, just a few years ago (about $100 million)2. Yes, it is now cheaper to fly to Mars than to make a major motion picture about it.\nJohn O\u2019Brien/The New Yorker Collection/The Cartoon Bank\nThe future begins today\nSpace may be the \u201cfinal frontier,\u201d but it only scratches the surface when it comes to scientific breakthroughs that will change life as we know it. Physicist Michio Kaku is someone we admire greatly; he is not only an innovator in his own right, but also a great communicator about the possibilities of science. He will be our featured speaker at MPMG\u2019s 2018 Speaker Series event in August. We can think of no better spokesman for the future than Dr. Kaku. His desire to become a physicist emerged at an early age because he determined that physicists \u201cinvent the future.\u201d Dr. Kaku emphasizes that while he writes about the future, \u201cI\u2019m not a science fiction writer. Every technology I write about has a prototype.\u201d Here are just a few examples of major breakthroughs he sees on the horizon:\nCancer treatment that really kills cancer\nAccording to Dr. Kaku, \u201cIn your bathroom, you will have more computer power than a modern hospital, so that your toilet will pick up proteins emitted from cancer colonies of maybe 100 cancer cells 10 years before a tumor forms.\u201d Carrying this idea further, Dr. Kaku notes that \u201csomething called nanoparticles, which can actually zero in and kill individual cancer cells like smart bombs,\u201d will become a routine and relatively painless form of cancer treatment. It will deal with issues far in advance, and be far less invasive and more effective than chemotherapy.\nWe are on the verge of expanding lifespans. In the future, says Dr. Kaku, our medical records will include a rundown of our genes. It will make it possible for researchers to compare the genes of young people with those of older people, subtract the genes of older people, and determine which genes control the aging process. Already 60 genes that control human aging have been discovered. Future generations may have the ability to reach the age of 30, and then pause the aging process for perhaps many decades.\nMore practical application of solar energy\nSolar energy has evolved from a fringe energy source to a far more practical and competitive one. Like many other examples cited above, the industry was once highly dependent on government subsidies. A major limitation was the lack of an effective way to store the energy generated. If the sun doesn\u2019t shine, solar power is an inefficient energy source. Dr. Kaku tells us that we\u2019re on the cusp of \u201csuper batteries\u201d that will make storage far more efficient, making wind and solar fully competitive with fossil fuel technology.\nIt was once considered eye-opening when contact lenses were invented that could alter eye color. Dr. Kaku speaks of something far more dramatic. The lenses of tomorrow will allow you to blink and see a biography of the person you are speaking to, or translate from different languages. These are just a handful of the examples of innovations that are on the horizon and the kinds of breakthroughs we expect to hear more about from Dr. Kaku at his appearance.\nAre you ready to capitalize on the future?\nThere was a time when most people couldn\u2019t conceive of railroads, airplanes, automobiles, or space flight. Now we\u2019re talking about advancements that, to many of us alive today, may seem fanciful \u2013 such as virtually curing cancer, altering the aging process, and even colonizing Mars. Some of this may be closer to reality than others, but there is no lack of effort to move humankind forward through the force of scientific breakthroughs.\nInvestors shouldn\u2019t discount the potential that science will help resolve some of the biggest challenges we face as a society. The brainpower and inventive thinking behind today\u2019s scientific quests are unprecedented. There are thousands of upon thousands of great minds, across the globe, making contributions to our new age of advancement.\nAs Dr. Kaku points out, over the past century lifespans have expanded dramatically. We\u2019ve seen an explosion of wealth and prosperity. It can be credited in large part to scientific advancement. There is a constant effort to improve life, whether it is through robots or computers managing the more mundane tasks of life, or helping us enjoy more active, healthier and longer lives. It may mean resolving challenges related to climate change or more effectively feeding the hungry of the world.\nNews that\u2019s fit to print\u2026.but isn\u2019t\nGiven the barrage of headlines that confront us on a daily basis, it is always easy to find reasons to feel less confident about the future. The point of this letter is simple \u2013 that just like the visionaries who conceive of what the future may be with a specific technology or advancement, investors must also take the long view. It is easy to think in a linear fashion, or to make decisions based on the immediate risks and rewards that we can clearly see. Investors who are caught up in this are lacking a sense of the big picture. They fail to approach the future with a vision of what\u2019s possible.\nThe importance of seeing the possibilities of the future is especially vital for value investors. Attractively priced stocks of quality, well established companies are typically overlooked due to the human tendency toward linear thinking. Having confidence in the future of a company that is out of favor is a big part of identifying good quality stocks as attractive, long-term investments. Just as important for investors is the ability to remain patient, and not let the short-term movements of a company\u2019s stock distract them from the fundamentals of potentially undervalued businesses. Stocks that represent good value are of companies that, at a certain point in time, are not aligned with mainstream thinking and the current fashion. But we believe that this puts them at an attractive price point that creates significant wealth-creation potential, with less risk, for investors.\nNo matter the challenges we may face in the current environment, the story that isn\u2019t being covered is that we\u2019re on the precipice of an extraordinarily innovative period of history. Major changes are in store for our world that will move humanity to unprecedented heights. This is a story that investors need to hear and heed.\n2018 MPMG Speaker Series Event\nToday\u2019s Innovations Generate Tomorrow\u2019s Profits\nMPMG is excited to welcome Dr. Michio Kaku, one of the most widely recognized figures in science in the world today, at our 2018 MPMG Speaker Series event. Dr. Kaku is a theoretical physicist, bestselling author, acclaimed public speaker, renowned futurist, and popularizer of science. As co-founder of String Field Theory, Dr. Kaku carries on Einstein\u2019s quest to unite the four fundamental forces of nature into a single grand unified theory of everything. In addition, Dr. Kaku is an internationally recognized authority in the prediction of trends affecting business, medicine, finance, and our way of life, based on the latest research in science.\nDr. Kaku has written three New York Times Best Sellers: The Future of the Mind, Physics of the Future, and Physics of the Impossible. He also appears regularly on national and international TV programs, such as the Larry King Show, Nightline, 60 Minutes, Good Morning America, CNN, ABC News, Fox News, BBC, PBS\u2019s Nova and Innovation, Tech TV, the David Letterman Show, the Colbert Report, the Connan O\u2019Brian Show, and the Bill Maher Show. He has appeared on numerous science specials including PBS\u2019s Steven Hawking\u2019s Universe, Science Odyssey, and Einstein Revealed, the BBC\u2019s Future Fantastic, Parallel Universes, The Big G: The Story of Gravity, the Discovery channel, the History Channel\u2019s Universe series, and many science documentaries. He has also written for the Wall Street Journal, Time Magazine, Discover Magazine, Wired, as well as many other publications.\nGiven today\u2019s headline-driven culture, there is perhaps no better time to hear about the big-picture events that will shape our future as investors and as a society. And we believe there is no better person to discuss this future than Dr. Michio Kaku. We look forward to celebrating our 13th annual event with one of the world\u2019s most respected scientists.\n1.

        "raw_content": "Acquittal at Snaresbrook Crown Court: from London to Hollywood\nMPR Solicitors secured the acquittal of an aspiring and talented young film director on charges of money laundering at Snaresbrook Crown Court this week. A conviction would have been devastating for our client as it would have precluded them from working in the USA and made it impossible for them to fly out to the US for film festivals and screenings at short notice under the visa waiver programme. Therefore the stakes were high in this case and the pressure was on for partner Seema Parikh who was the solicitor leading the defence team and specialises in criminal litigation. The added difficulty was that the client had been unrepresented at the police station and had on the literal reading of the police interview transcripts made admissions to the charges.\nThe case required meticulous case preparation and tactical considerations pre-trial and during the trial. Defence witnesses from overseas and from the world of Film and Television were called to give evidence. We had to turn the case around and look at it from a completely different angle.\nSenior defence counsel from a top 10 set of London Barristers Chambers was selected to defend the client at trial. Due to her extensive contacts within the legal profession, Seema Parikh was able to secure heavyweight counsel for the case. At MPR Solicitors we only instruct barristers that meet our own very stringent quality criteria and in the majority of cases whom we have seen first hand in action in court. This allows us to have complete confidence in the trial advocate and the reassurance that our clients are getting a first class service from their defence team.\nIt was a very stressful period in our client\u2019s life and we were on hand to advise throughout and after the trial process. In addition to securing the acquittal, we were able to obtain a defence costs order in favour of our client which means that we will be able to apply to the National Taxing Team to reimburse some if not all of our client\u2019s legal fees and expenses as the case was being funded privately.\nIt should also be worth noting that if you are required to attend court to give evidence of fact for a defendant, then as a witness you can claim your travel fares and costs for attending court and this includes air travel.\nOur client\u2019s latest film has been screened in the UK to much critical acclaim and will now be submitted to the international Tribeca film festival in New York in the Spring of 2013.",

        "raw_content": "Munger, Tolles & Olson frequently represents higher-education institutions in a variety of litigation and investigatory matters. Our attorneys understand the challenges faced by both public and private colleges and universities, in both the traditional and for-profit sectors. We have guided educational institutions through issues ranging from constitutional claims concerning admission policies to privacy issues resulting from a security breach to False Claims Act cases and investigations.\nThe list below illustrates the wide range of substantive areas of law and types of matters in which we have represented higher-education clients.\nInternal and Government Investigations, False Claims Act Litigation and Criminal Defense\nMunger Tolles has counseled higher education clients in internal and government investigations, criminal prosecutions and civil matters involving the False Claims Act. These matters include:\nDefending a for-profit institution against multiple whistleblower lawsuits and government investigations under the False Claims Act related to the school\u2019s compliance with various Higher Education Act requirements.\nRepresenting a state university in an internal investigation raising issues related to a faculty start-up company, licensing of university intellectual property, the use of federal grant funds, and conflicts of interest.\nAdvising a university in a Cal-OSHA investigation into a workplace accident, in which our attorneys successfully negotiated a settlement with Cal-OSHA and avoided the most serious penalties.\nDefending against a felony prosecution for a lab accident that resulted in a student\u2019s death. Our attorneys successfully negotiated a prosecution enforcement agreement and obtained a dismissal with prejudice.\nStudent Sexual Misconduct, Due Process and Title IX\nOur firm has significant expertise representing universities in litigation arising out of university disciplinary proceedings involving student sexual misconduct. We also provide pre-litigation advice for clients who must navigate between their Title IX, VAWA, and Clery Act obligations on one hand and due process on the other. We have defended state universities:\nAgainst numerous due process claims raised in administrative writ proceedings by students accused of sexual assault or other sexual misconduct and disciplined through the university\u2019s student conduct hearing procedure\nAgainst Respondent students\u2019 ex parte applications for a temporary restraining order seeking reinstatement. We have successfully opposed ex parte applications challenging interim suspensions, suspensions, and dismissals.\nAgainst due process claims regarding the university\u2019s Title IX investigation of allegations of student sexual misconduct.\nIn federal court actions brought by university students alleging that the university responded to reports of sexual harassment by faculty or other students with deliberate indifference in violation of Title IX. We have succeeded in having some claims dismissed at the pleadings stage and currently are engaged in discovery.\nFirst Amendment, Due Process and Other Constitutional Claims\nOur firm also has represented state universities and university systems in numerous cases raising constitutional issues. For example, we defended a state university in:\nA federal lawsuit challenging the university\u2019s adoption and application of high school curriculum requirements for eligibility for admission to the university, on numerous constitutional grounds allegedly arising from discrimination on the basis of religion. The university won summary judgment in the trial court, which was affirmed by the Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit.\nA federal class action alleging that, following the passage of California\u2019s Proposition 209, the university\u2019s admissions policies resulted in disparate impact discrimination in violation of the Constitution and regulations promulgated under Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. The case settled on terms favorable to the university, without requiring any change to the university\u2019s admissions policies.\nA federal court action alleging that the university failed to protect the plaintiff Jewish students from an alleged anti-Israel and anti-Semitic campus environment and from harassment and violence, in violation of the Constitution and Title VI. The case was dismissed at the pleading stage, in part on the basis that the actions the plaintiffs claimed the university should have taken would have violated the First Amendment rights of other students.\nA federal lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of California\u2019s Proposition 209, as applied to the university\u2019s admissions policies. The case was dismissed at the pleading stage, and the dismissal was upheld by the Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit.\nAs amicus curiae in the United States Supreme Court in a federal court lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of Michigan\u2019s Proposal 2, which prohibited the use of race as a factor in university admissions decisions.\nA lawsuit challenging the university\u2019s provision of financial aid to certain undocumented immigrants who graduate from state high schools.\nA lawsuit by a student at the university\u2019s law school alleging that the university breached a contract to admit him to a joint degree program in the medical and law schools and that the admissions policies of the university\u2019s medical school violate a prohibition against the use of race in admissions. The lawsuit was dismissed with prejudice by the trial court.\nAgainst due process claims brought by a student accused of sexual assault and disciplined through the university\u2019s student conduct hearing procedure. The university successfully opposed the student\u2019s application for a temporary restraining order seeking reinstatement and the lawsuit was dismissed with prejudice by the trial court.\nWe also represented, at the request of a university, undocumented immigrant and citizen students and student organizations at a state university as amici curiae defending the legality of a state law exempting certain persons, including undocumented immigrants who graduate from state high schools, from paying nonresident tuition at state universities and colleges without regard to whether they reside in California. The state Supreme Court upheld the law.\nOur attorneys have also advocated on behalf of higher-education institutions in matters raising privacy issues. For example, we represented a state university in:\nA class action alleging that the university had violated the privacy rights of the plaintiffs as a result of a computer hacker\u2019s gaining unauthorized access to certain information about patients at the university\u2019s medical center. Following dismissal of most of the plaintiffs\u2019 monetary claims, the action was settled for a modest payment to the class and agreement to make changes that were almost all planned by the university without regard to the lawsuit.\nA class action alleging that the university violated the privacy rights of the plaintiffs as a result of the theft of a computer hard drive containing medical information from the home of a university-affiliated physician. The California Court of Appeal ordered that the case be dismissed because there was no allegation that the confidentiality of the plaintiffs\u2019 medical information had in fact been breached. We currently represent the university in a similar class action arising from theft of a computer from a university medical center.\nA state court lawsuit alleging that an assistant to a physician affiliated with the university\u2019s medical center improperly accessed medical information about the plaintiff and disclosed it to unauthorized persons. The complaint alleges that the university was negligent in providing the physician a password that allowed him access to information about patients other than his own.\nWe successfully defended a state university in a state court action alleging that the university and its library had defamed the plaintiffs by publishing and placing in the library an oral history of a prominent Jewish group in the San Francisco Bay Area. The case was dismissed based on the statute of limitations and the university was awarded its attorneys\u2019 fees.\nMunger Tolles represents a state university in a lawsuit filed by three University of California anthropology professors alleging that the university violated the federal Native American Grave Preservation and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA), the First Amendment and the university\u2019s public trust obligation by deciding to repatriate skeletal remains found on university property to a Native American tribe. The lawsuit was dismissed by the trial court on the ground that the tribe was an indispensable party and could not be joined as a defendant because it has tribal sovereign immunity. The Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit affirmed.\nAcademic-Research Privilege\nWe helped a professor at a state university successfully oppose a subpoena for production of evidence served on him by the state attorney general on the basis of the academic-research privilege.\nHailyn J.

        "raw_content": "Hmm, why's there a photo of swings? You'll see why\nAnytime an infamous serial killer's childhood is mentioned, there are always four topics of conversation which are mentioned as \"possible\" clues to their terrifying future as a murderer - bed-wetting, animal abuse, arson and - of course - sustaining a serious head injury at an early age. Obviously, these aren't the only factors which create a serial killer, the most important one being abuse by a parent (whether physical, sexual, emotional, or often all three), but in this blog we'll just focus on serial killers who sustained a serious head injury whether by accident or by beatings from an abusive parents during their formative years, and whether their head injury caused a change in their personality, an isolation, or a lack of empathy with other people. That said, I'm not trying to justify their killings by suggesting it was entirely the fault of any brain injury.\nAs always, this is not a comprehensive and complete list, there I will be updating it as and when information comes to light, but if you feel there are any cases that need to be added, please feel free to comment below, or tweet me @mmiletours. Enjoy reading. Mx\nGlen Edward Rogers \"The Cross Country Killer\" \u2013 As a toddler, aged 1-2 years old, Rogers would sit and rock back and forth, continually banging his forehead against hard surfaces (such as walls, doors, floors) and yet never once cried, as it he had no emotions or feeling.\nRichard Ramirez \"The Night Stalker\" \u2013 Aged two, Ramirez sustained a significant injury to his head when a dresser fell on top of him, causing a laceration which required 30 stitches, and aged five years old, he was knocked out by a swing in the park, this head injury caused him to suffer from epileptic seizures which remained until he was a teenager.\nJohn Wayne Gacy \"The Killer Clown\" - Aged six, Gacy as beaten unconscious by his father wielding a broomstick, and aged eleven, he was struck in the head with a swing, which (although not diagnosed until he was sixteen) it resulted in his suffering from black-outs, which were exacerbated by his congenital heart arrhythmia.\u200b\u200b Read more.\nFred West \"The Gloucester Road Murders\" - Aged 17, West suffered a fractured skull in a motorbike accident, which left him unconscious for seven days.

Read more about Ed Gein\nCarlton Gary, aged eight years old, Gary (who suffered from ill-health owing to malnutrition) was knocked unconscious in a playground accident, although the exact details are unspecific.\nIan Brady \"The Moors Murderer\" - At the age of ten, Brady was playing with a balloon in the kitchen when he slipped on spilled water (as his adoptive mother was peeling potatoes) and broke his leg. Although there is no reference to a head injury, his leg healed and wouldn\u2019t cause him any pain/injury, it is uncertain whether his affected his personality. Read more about Ian Brady\nGary Heidnek - aged six years old, Heidnek fell out of a tree whilst playing, and although his injuries are unspecified, the fall resulted in his skull being \"oddly shaped\", for which he was mercilessly teased by the other children.\nCharles Whitman \"The Texas Tower Sniper\" - Although not injured in an accident, Whitman (who murdered 17 people and injured 31 in a shooting spree), during his autopsy he was found to have a \"pecan-sized\" tumour inside his brain.\nAlexander Pichushkin \"The Chessboard Killer\" - Although initially he was a sociable child, Pichushkin's personality changed when he fell backwards off of a swing, which struck him in the forehead as it swung back, damaging his frontal cortex which can produce poor impulse regulation and aggression.\nRobert Joe Long \"The Classified Ad Rapist\" - Suffered serious head injuries in his early years; aged five he was knocked unconscious when he fell from a swing.

This injury resulted in a three day coma and caused significant damage to the pre-frontal lobe of his brain.\nDennis Rader \"The BTK Killer\" - In his recently released biography Confession of a Serial Killer, he stated that as an infant, his mother had accidentally dropped him on his head, he had stopped breathing and had turned blue, but she did not taken him to a hospital.\nInterestingly, after Ted Bundy's execution, his brain was removed during the autopsy and was x-rayed, but showed no evidence of injury or abnormality. It's worth noting, there was a fascinating piece in the Washington Post which claimed that serial killers and more likely to have suffered from a head trauma as a child, or even autism. Read the article here. Criminologist Dr Adrian Raine scanned the brains of 40+ convicted killers and compared them to \"ordinary people\" and he found that serial killers have lower activity in the pre-frontal area of the brain. \u201cThis is the area that controls aggression, concentration and regulates impulse control. Psychopaths also have shrunken amygdala \u2013 the seat of the brain that controls emotion, which explains their lack of empathy, remorse or guilt when they hurt others\u201d\nTRUE-CRIME PODCAST FANS?

        "raw_content": "Home / Pharmacy Library / Osteoarthritis: Treatments\nOsteoarthritis: Treatments\nThere are more than 200 different types of arthritis, the main one being osteoarthritis. In the UK, 8.75 million people are thought to have requested treatment for osteoarthritis, which includes 33 percent of people over 45 and 49 percent of women and 42 percent of men aged 75 or older (i).\nOsteoarthritis is a degenerative condition where the the cartilage, the smooth layer that covers the bone surfaces in the joints, has become damaged. According to Arthritis Research UK, 18 percent of those requesting treatment for osteoarthritis (around 4.7 million people) complain of knee joint pain. Other joints commonly affected include the hip, hand, wrist, foot and ankle.\nThe second most common form of arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis is thought to affect more than 400,000 people in the UK. It causes pain, swelling and stiffness in the joints, and is classed as an autoimmune disease, since it\u2019s caused by the immune system attacking one or more joints.\nAnkylosing spondylitis, a form of arthritis is an inflammatory condition that most commonly affects the spine (though other parts of the body can be affected, including the eyes, joints and tendons). It\u2019s also more common in men than women.\nYour joints are subjected to a lot of wear and tear during your lifetime, especially the load-bearing joints such as your knees, ankles and hips.\nA joint consists of two or more bones that meet, the ends of which are covered in a layer of cartilage that helps to prevent the bones rubbing together. Holding the bones in place are ligaments, while muscles around a joint expand and contract, which helps the joint to move (these muscles are attached to the bones via tendons).\nSurrounding the joint is a capsule made up of fibres that restrict the range of movement in a joint. The capsule is lined by the synovial membrane, which produces synovial fluid that lubricates the joint and provides nutrients for the cartilage.\nWith arthritis, several parts of the joint can become damaged, including the bones and cartilage. In osteoarthritis, this is widely believed to be caused by a gradual process of wear and tear. This can cause bony growths to develop in the joints, leading to inflammation inside the joints that irritates nerve endings, causing pain, stiffness and swelling.\nFor instance, if carrying a heavy bag of shopping causes pain in your shoulder, elbow, wrist or hand, use two smaller shopping bags \u2013 one in each hand (or on each forearm) \u2013 to spread the load, or use a shopping trolley. You can also try using two hands to pour water out of a heavy kettle, hold large objects you\u2019re carrying close to your body to allow the weight to be supported by stronger joints and avoid gripping things too tightly.\nThink about how you can use less effort to do lots of repetitive daily tasks that might be causing pain and further wear and tear, and when an activity that you do regularly causes a strain on a joint, try to spend less time on them \u2013 or if that\u2019s not possible, try to take more breaks.\nOsteoarthritis: five ways to help yourself\nOne of the most effective ways to relieve the symptoms of osteoarthritis is to make sure your weight is healthy \u2013 which means shedding a few pounds if you need to. That\u2019s because the more weight your body is carrying, the bigger the load on your knees, hips and ankle joints. Not only does that make you more susceptible to developing osteoarthritis, it can make the condition progress more quickly once you do have it.\nEating healthily may help you to manage your weight, which can have a significant effect on the symptoms of osteoarthritis. There is also some evidence that eating a Mediterranean diet may help people with osteoarthritis enjoy a better quality of life, as well as decreased pain and disability (ii).\nFollowing a Mediterranean diet means eating plenty of vegetables, fruit, wholegrain cereals, peas and beans, and using olive oil or rapeseed oil instead of animal fats such as butter or lard. A typical Mediterranean diet also includes a moderate amount of low-fat dairy products as well as fish (especially oily fish such as salmon, pilchards, sardines and mackerel) and poultry.\nFoods to avoid or limit include high-fat milk and dairy products, red meat, high-fat and high-salt processed foods (ready meals, cakes, biscuits, crisps etc), potatoes and sugary foods such as sweets and desserts.\nIf you have osteoarthritis in your feet, knees, hips or back, walking shoes with thick soles that act as shock absorbers for your feet \u2013 such as trainers \u2013 may help reduce the strain on your joints. Wearing high heels, on the other hand, can increase the pressure on your joints because they alter the angle of your hips, knees and big toe joints.\nThere is no cure for osteoarthritis. But if you\u2019re diagnosed with either condition and making the appropriate lifestyle changes hasn\u2019t been effective enough to control your symptoms, you may also receive one or more of the following treatments:\nYour GP may recommend medication to relieve pain. The type of painkiller you may receive will depend on how severe your pain is, and whether or not you have other medical conditions or health problems.\nPain relief medication may include paracetamol, a combination of paracetamol and codeine, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as ibuprofen and diclofenac, or prescription drugs called COX-2 inhibitors (also part of the NSAID family), such as celecoxib and etericoxib. Some of these are available in cream form, which means they can be applied directly to the area of pain.\nYour GP may also recommend capsaicin cream, which is made from the capsicum (pepper) plant. According to Arthritis Research UK, this is an effective and very well-tolerated painkiller that you apply three or four times a day. It can produce a warming or even burning sensation when you first start to use it, but this usually wears off in time. Only available on prescription, capsaicin cream is thought to be particularly useful for hand and knee osteoarthritis; however it can take up to a month to be fully effective.\nInjections of corticosteroid \u2013 a medicine that reduces swelling and pain \u2013 may be given in severe cases of osteoarthritis, where taking painkillers has failed to manage symptoms effectively. The medicine is injected directly into the affected joints, and if it proves successful, you may be offered up to three intra-articular injections a year.\nAlso called viscosupplementation, injections of hyaluronic acid into the affected joints are sometimes available for those who have tried all other non-surgical treatments without success. According to the NHS there\u2019s evidence this may help to temporarily reduce pain and improve osteoarthritis symptoms in some people. But others may not find it successful, and more research is needed about the long-term effects.\nIf you have severe pain or mobility problems in your knee or hip, you may be advised to have a joint replacement operation. A keyhole surgery procedure called arthroscopic lavage is also sometimes recommended for certain people with osteoarthritis of the knee.\nApplying creams, gels or sprays to heat or cool the skin around a joint may help to relieve the pain and other symptoms of osteoarthritis. Alternatively you could try heat packs that can be warmed up in the microwave or cold packs that can be kept in the freezer (or simply a hot water bottle filled with hot or cold water).\nThe omega-3 fatty acids found in oily fish are mainly associated with the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis. However, there is some evidence they may help people with osteoarthritis too (though most of the studies are animal rather than human studies). One such study suggests omega-3 fats may slow the progression of osteoarthritis as well as help prevent it (iii).\nThere is also evidence to suggest that rosehip \u2013 a herbal medicine \u2013 may be effective in relieving some of the symptoms associated with osteoarthritis (v). According to experts at Arthritis Research UK, this herb may work because it contains the antioxidant vitamin C as well as polyphenols and anthocyanins, both of which are thought to protect joints against damage.\nThis herbal product is used for the relief of rheumatic pain as well as general aches and pains in the joints (based on traditional use only). There is some evidence it may be effective: for instance, one study included in a systematic review into devil\u2019s claw suggests volunteers given the remedy saw significant improvements in pain compared with those taking a placebo (vi).\nA common ingredient in curries, turmeric is a spice that grows in India and Indonesia. It contains an active ingredient called curcumin, which is often recommended as a treatment for reducing pain, inflammation and stiffness. One study notes that curcumin may help protect joint cartilage and relieve cartilage degeneration and inflammation (vii).\nMultivitamin and mineral supplements that contain antioxidants such as selenium as well as beneficial levels of vitamins\nTaken as a single supplement or as part of a high-strength multivitamin and mineral, zinc is thought to be helpful for maintaining the immune system, which may be affected when you have chronic pain. There is also evidence that zinc plays a causal role in osteoarthritis, with one study suggesting zinc levels inside cartilage cells cause osteoarthritis-related tissue damage (viii).\nOsteoarthritis in general practice.

        "raw_content": "Prosecutors: Manafort Wrote Op-Ed With Colleague in Russia\nPaul Manafort is currently facing several felony charges involving allegations of money laundering and other financial crimes related to his political consulting work in Ukraine\n//www.nbcbayarea.com/news/politics/Manafort-Indictment-The-Fallout-454269363.html\nThe White House says recent indictments from the Mueller Investigation have nothing to do with the president, his campaign or alleged collusion with Russia. Tracie Potts reports. (Published Tuesday, Oct. 31, 2017)\nIn an attempt to burnish his public image and leave no fingerprints behind, Donald Trump's former campaign chairman Paul Manafort recently enlisted a longtime colleague \"assessed to have ties\" to Russian intelligence to help him ghostwrite an op-ed, prosecutors said Monday.\nProsecutors working for special counsel Robert Mueller say in court papers that they believe the opinion piece \u2014 written while Manafort is on house arrest facing several felonies \u2014 would have violated a judge's order that bars him from trying his case in the press.\nThey are now pushing for Manafort to remain confined to his home on GPS monitoring for the time being.\nAccording to the court papers , Manafort and the colleague sought to publish the op-ed to influence public opinion about his political consulting in Ukraine, work at the heart of the criminal case against him. The op-ed was being drafted as late as last week.\nWhite House Responds to Campaign Staff Indictments, Plea\nWhite House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders on Monday sought to distance the White House from the indictments of top presidential campaign officials Paul Manafort and Rick Gates and the guilty plea of campaign aide George Papadopoulos.\nProsecutors did not name Manafort's colleague, who is currently based in Russia, or provide details of how they determined the person had ties to a spy agency. Reached Monday, a spokesman for Manafort declined comment.\nManafort is currently facing several felony charges involving allegations of money laundering and other financial crimes related to his political consulting work in Ukraine. Manafort has denied any wrongdoing. A trial is scheduled for next year.\nIn the court filing, prosecutors say the op-ed appeared to violate an admonishment from the judge last month to refrain from public statements. An op-ed is an opinion essay written to be published in some form, usually on a website or in a newspaper or magazine. It is usually marked as representing the views of the writer and separated from news content.\n\"Even if the ghostwritten op-ed were entirely accurate, fair, and balanced, it would be a violation of this Court's November 8 Order if it had been published,\" the prosecutors wrote. \"The editorial clearly was undertaken to influence the public's opinion of defendant Manafort, or else there would be no reason to seek its publication (much less for Manafort and his long-time associate to ghostwrite it in another's name).\"\nThey added, \"It compounds the problem that the proposed piece is not a dispassionate recitation of the facts.\"\nProsecutors said they discovered the efforts to publish the op-ed last Thursday and alerted Manafort's attorney, who assured prosecutors that \"steps would be taken to make sure it was no longer going to be published.\"\nTop Trump campaign officials Paul Manafort and Rick Gates surrendered to authorities on Monday. Both face 12 charges, including conspiracy to launder money, failure to register as a foreign agent and more.\nAt the time, Manafort was working to secure his release from home confinement by posting more than $10 million in bond, and according to court papers, he had reached a tentative agreement with the government. But after discovering the op-ed, Mueller's team is now opposing Manafort's proposed bond agreement.\nProsecutors did not disclose the op-ed in court papers so as to prevent it from becoming public. They also did not disclose what name the ghostwritten op-ed would have been published under.\nManafort and his longtime business associate, Rick Gates, were indicted in October by a grand jury in Washington. They were among the first people to face charges brought by the special counsel's office.\nManafort led the Trump campaign for several months, including during the Republican National Convention. Gates also worked in a senior role on the campaign.\nMueller has been leading a wide-ranging investigation into Russia's election interference and any coordination with Trump associates.",

        "raw_content": "Wizards go for 3rd straight win vs. Cavs\nWASHINGTON -- The Wizards will go for their third straight win when they host the Cleveland Cavaliers on Wednesday night at Capital One Arena.\nWashington opened a five-game homestand with a 117-109 victory against the Orlando Magic on Monday night as John Wall scored 25 points and reserve forward Jeff Green continued his excellent run.\nLast season the Wizards often lost ground when they went to their bench. This season Green, Kelly Oubre, and Austin Rivers are leading a more formidable second unit.\nGreen scored 18 points on 6-of-7 shooting Monday night and played strong defense at the other end. He is averaging 17 points and 6.3 rebounds over his past three games.\n\"He knows how to play,\" coach Scott Brooks said of Green. \"It's not every night he's going to shoot four-for-five from three but he's starting to get a little bit of rhythm from the three-point line and we need that from him. We need his all-around play. He can guard just about everybody on the floor.\"\nGreen scored 10 of his points in the fourth quarter when Washington (4-9) outscored Orlando 34-26.\n\"I call him George Gervin because he's got the big hands to help him finish around the basket,\" Dwight Howard, who had 17 points and eight rebounds, said. \"When he rolls to the basket, Jeff is hard to guard. Especially with the way he gets off the floor.\"\nAnother failing of last year's Wizards, who finished eighth in the East and were eliminated in the first round of the playoffs, was their habit of playing to the level of their competition and often losing to teams below them in the standings.\nWashington's next two games are against the Cavaliers (1-11 plus tonight) and the Brooklyn Nets.\n\"Orlando is out the way, now we have to look forward to the next game against Cleveland,\" Brooks said. \"That's the only thing that should matter. We can't overlook any team in this league, especially now that we've dug ourselves into a bit of a hole.\"\nCleveland overcame its latest round of injuries to defeat the Charlotte Hornets 113-89 on Tuesday night, ending a five-game losing streak.\nJordan Clarkson scored 24 points, and Tristan Thompson had 21 rebounds and 11 points for the Cavaliers (2-11).\nCleveland built a double-digit lead in the first quarter. The Hornets got within nine in the third quarter, but the Cavaliers pulled away and led by as many as 25 points in the fourth quarter. Reserve David Nwaba scored 18 points and Rodney Hook and Collin Sexton added 16 each.\n\"Tonight, we put ourselves in a position that we have not been in all year, where we have jumped out on someone and built a lead and able to maintain a lead,\" head coach Larry Drew told the Cleveland Plain Dealer.\n\"It just feels good kind of getting that monkey off your back with the losing streak, but more so that we've been working hard the last couple of weeks and we've been coming away empty handed. But tonight, we were able to sustain from start to finish and put together a complete game.\"\nAlready without forward Kevin Love (foot surgery), starting point guard George Hill (hamstring) and forward Sam Dekker (ankle), the Cavaliers also were minus forwards Kyle Korver (sore right foot) and Cedi Osman (back spasms) on Tuesday.",

        "raw_content": "Daytona wants to lease or sell property on Halifax River\nEILEEN ZAFFIRO-KEAN, Staff Writer\nDAYTONA BEACH -- City officials hope 2012 will be the year they draw a national brand grocery store to a 2-acre plot of land just east of the International Speedway Boulevard bridge.\nEarlier this year, Publix was considering opening one of its stores on the city-owned property on the southeast end of the bridge, said Deputy City Manager Paul McKitrick. But about six months ago, Publix backed away from the idea, McKitrick said.\n\"We were real disappointed when Publix said no thank you,\" McKitrick said Tuesday.\nBut the city is nowhere close to giving up, and is \"very hopeful\" it will entice either Publix to reconsider or another major retailer to open on the site just east of the Halifax River.\nPublix could not be reached for comment.\nIn hopes of generating more interest in the land, the city has hired a New Smyrna Beach demolition company to level the six vacant buildings on the property within the next month or two. The city will then seed the open land so it will be a grassy plot until someone decides to lease or buy it.\n\"Once the land is cleared, it will give developers a better feel for what it'll look like,\" said city Redevelopment Director Reed Berger.\nWithin a few months, the city will put out a request for proposals from developers interested in buying or leasing the land and rejuvenating it, McKitrick said.\nJim Cameron, senior vice president of government relations for the Daytona Regional Chamber of Commerce, said he's happy to see movement on the property.\n\"That's an area so many people see when they come over the bridge,\" Cameron said Tuesday. \"It's an area that could make a good first impression. That stretch of International Speedway Boulevard has been on our list for a long time.\"\nIt's a \"prime piece of property\" and an \"ideal space for some new commercial development,\" Cameron said.\nThe city bought most of the property -- bordered by International Speedway Boulevard, Peninsula Drive and Vermont Avenue -- in late 2010.\nThe land had been held by one property owner who assembled small pieces for development, Berger said. But that owner lost the property to foreclosure a few years ago, so Prosperity Bank was holding the land when the city moved toward buying it in the fall of 2010, Berger said.\nThe city had been interested in the land since the beginning of 2010, when the sale price was $1.32 million. After the asking price was lowered to $850,000, the city negotiated with the bank and struck a deal to buy most of the land for $600,000. That was below the $665,000 assessed value for the parcels combined, according to city records.\nThe city acquired the last of the six parcels on the site, at 324 S. Peninsula Drive, for $115,000 in March.\nOne of the buildings had been home to a liquor store, and another was a massage parlor. The four remaining structures were rental homes. Most of the structures have been vacant for the past three years.\nThe city put displays in the windows of the businesses to make them look better, but most of the buildings have been falling into disrepair and need to come down, Berger said.\nBerger hopes the redevelopment area gets bigger, whether the city buys more nearby property or a developer does. One or two properties just south of the site are for sale, McKitrick said.\nThe redevelopment site is across from a vacant parcel on the northeast end of the International Speedway Boulevard bridge that had been targeted for a hotel, marina, restaurant and shops before the economy faltered.\nPermitting is in place now for the marina, but the rest of that development is on hold, McKitrick said.\nBack on the south side of the road, there's still hope for what can happen next year. The city is open to either one big business taking over the entire site, or several businesses sharing it, McKitrick said.\n\"It's a buyer's market,\" Cameron said. \"Hopefully we can get something started that will entice people.\"",

        "raw_content": "Subscribe to Clavicle Injuries\nPosted in Clavicle Injuries, Shoulder Injuries\nOn October 3, 2003, Clyde Davison stumbled and fell from the subway platform onto the tracks at Franklin Avenue in Brooklyn. Luckily for him, there was no train in the area and a police officer responded quickly finding the 50 year old man face down near the third rail apparently intoxicated.\nWithin a few minutes, before Davison could be moved, a train entered the station at about 20 miles per hour and its contact shoe clipped Davison severely injuring him causing fractures of his clavicle and scapula.\nHere is a typical clavicle fracture:.\nIn the ensuing lawsuit, the transit authority was found 70% at fault for plaintiff\u2019s injuries and Davison was charged with 30% of the fault.\nThe trial judge disagreed and dismissed the case reasoning that plaintiff was the sole proximate cause of his state of intoxication and that he unreasonably and unforeseeably disregarded the police officer\u2019s instructions to get up and away from the tracks. On appeal, though, in Davison v. New York City Transit Authority (2d Dept. 2009), the 70/30 split was reinstated.\nFinally, in 2010, a damages only trial was held.\nThe jury heard testimony from plaintiff and doctors for both sides describing the nature of Davison\u2019s clavicle and scapula injuries and their effect on his life. They rendered a pain and suffering verdict in the sum of $216,000 ($150,000 past \u2013 6 years, $66,000 future \u2013 22 years).\nThe plaintiff appealed, this time claiming that the jury\u2019s award was inadequate and should be increased.\nIn Davison v. New York City Transit Authority (2d Dept. 2011), the appellate court has now agreed with plaintiff again and ordered an increase in his award from $216,000 to $450,000 ($275,000 past, $175,000 future).\nThe net award to plaintiff, in view of his 30% comparative negligence, is $315,000.\nThe decision merely mentioned that plaintiff sustained fractures of his clavicle and scapula. Here are the details of Davison\u2019s injuries:\ncomminuted fracture of the left clavicle requiring surgery to repair with a steel plate and screws\ncomminuted fracture of the left scapula requiring surgery to repair with two steel plates and screws\n27 day hospitalization\noutpatient hospital physical therapy for two months\nseverely restricted movement and pain in the left arm with inability to perform normal household chores\nX-Ray showing the scapula after surgery like the one underwent by Mr. Davison:\nThe defense argued that the jury\u2019s award was adequate because plaintiff\u2019s fractures had healed, he was not suffering from any significant disability, he had no medical treatment for his injuries since August 2004 and any pain he still suffered from at trial was from prior unrelated injuries (of which there were many, including eight motor vehicle accidents and one that required neck surgery).\nWe\u2019ve discussed clavicle and scapula injuries before, here and here.\nDefendant had offered $250,000 to settle the case before beginning the trial (a pretty good approximation of how the case would end up).\nAt the damages trial, plaintiff was cross-examined concerning his alcohol use (he admitted he had a history of chronic alcoholism) and his drug use, matters objected to at trial and on appeal but ultimately not addressed by the appellate court.\nTeenager\u2019s Pain and Suffering Verdict for Clavicle and Hip Injuries Reduced on Appeal\nPosted in Clavicle Injuries, Hip and Pelvis Injuries\nAt about 2 p.m., on March 8, 2006, Maria Perone, then 18 years old, was on her way to the local Dunkin Donuts to get coffee for her office co-workers. As she walked across Bell Boulevard in Queens, Maria was struck in the crosswalk by a slow moving left turning city bus.\nThe impact knocked her to the ground and an ambulance took her to a nearby hospital emergency room where she complained of severe pain in her left shoulder and side. Maria was diagnosed with a left clavicle fracture and given a sling to wear for six weeks and a prescription for Vicodin.\nA day later, Maria saw her pediatrician with complaints of pain not only in her left shoulder area but also in her left hip (where she had developed a large bruise). A week later, an MRI of the left hip revealed a fracture.\nMaria sued the city and on November 16, 2009, a Queens jury awarded her pain and suffering damages in the sum of $180,000 ($65,000 past \u2013 3 1/2 years, $115,000 future \u2013 5 years).\nNow, in Perone v. City of New York (2d Dept. 2011), an appellate court has agreed with the defense contention that the jury award was excessive and ruled that the $115,000 award for future damages should be reduced by $85,000 to $30,000.\nThe total award now stands at $95,000 ($65,000 past, $30,000 future).\nAs indicated in its decision, the appellate court was influenced by the facts that:\nthe clavicle fracture was only minimally displaced (where the bone snaps and moves, so that the ends are not lined up straight) and\nthe hip fracture was nondisplaced (where the bone cracks, but does not move and maintains its proper alignment).\nMaria\u2019s hip fracture was actually a nondisplaced fracture of the greater trochanter (the non-weight bearing large bony end of the femur that sticks out from the side of one\u2019s hip).\nThe court also noted that Maria\u2019s treatment for her injuries was minimal (sling for six weeks, minimal physical therapy, no surgery), she had no arthritis, she did not limp and her fractures had healed completely.\nIn arguing for an affirmance of the jury verdict, Maria\u2019s attorneys noted that:\nshe experiences pain a few times a week as well as upon changes in the weather, when jogging and when wearing high heels\nher physical medicine and rehabilitation doctor (Kioomars Moosazadeh, M.D.) testified that Maria still has some atrophy and and instability in her shoulder with respect to which he said she has a guarded prognosis\nIn arguing (successfully) for a reduction of the jury verdict, the defense noted that:\nthere was no medical testimony establishing permanence or arthritic changes\nthe evidence indicated that plaintiff\u2019s injuries have not had much of an impact on her activities\nthe defense doctor (orthopedic surgeon Andrew Miller, M.D.) testified that he did not detect any atrophy, irritability or crepitation of Maria\u2019s shoulder\nTwo of the cases cited by the court are recent and relevant.\nIn Shaperonovitch v. City of New York (2d Dept. 2008), a woman sustained fractures of her acetabulum bone in her hip. No surgery was required, the bone healed within two months and she was able to walk unassisted. The jury\u2019s $102,000 pain and suffering award ($51,000 past, $51,000 future \u2013 31 years) was found reasonable and affirmed.\nIn Vanini v. Ramtol Service Corp. (1st Dept. 2005), a man sustained a clavicle fracture which had healed and there was no medical proof to support a claim of permanence or residual impairment. The jury awarded $10,000 for pain and sufferng (past only) and the appellate court ruled that it was fair and should not be disturbed.\nPlaintiff fractured her left clavicle in the past as well \u2013 when she was four years old.\nPlaintiff\u2019s doctor testified that there was no indication of a need for surgery, \"but I cannot say in the future what will happen.\" \"I can\u2019t say at this moment.\"",

        "raw_content": "Shock blood pressure result\nAfter Jane's NHS Health Check\nVideo: Nichola's story\n'My blood pressure was too high'\nJane Hudson, aged 70 at the time of her NHS Health Check, is from Emley, near Huddersfield, West Yorkshire. She lives with her husband and has one son and two daughters.\nLast year, Jane received a letter from her GP surgery inviting her to have an NHS Health Check and enclosing a leaflet about it. \"Everything was properly explained in both the letter and the leaflet,\" says Jane, who had no existing concerns about her health at the time, other than knowing that her cholesterol was on the high side.\nThe test appointment was for half an hour with a healthcare assistant. \"I was asked not to eat or drink anything but water for 12 hours beforehand,\" says Jane. She was also asked to bring a urine sample.\nThe health assistant measured Jane, performed a blood test, tested the urine she'd provided and took her blood pressure. Jane was also asked about any family history of heart problems, stroke, type 2 diabetes or dementia, and how much alcohol she drank.\nThe health assistant also gave Jane a British Heart Foundation booklet called Keep your heart healthy.\n\"The nurse almost fell off her chair when she saw the blood pressure reading!,\" says Jane, whose reading was done twice to make sure. \"So I was told I'd need a 24-hour monitor, which I had three weeks later. That proved there was a problem and I was told to make an appointment to see the doctor.\"\nJane says she found it shocking to hear that her blood pressure was so high, because she felt that she was leading a healthy lifestyle. She was also unhappy to hear that she would need to take blood pressure medicines, and vowed to make further lifestyle changes instead.\n\"I gave up added salt, which I did eat a lot of before. I virtually cut out alcohol, and altered my diet to cut out red meat and eat more fish \u2013 we always ate fish once or twice a week anyway. And I walk more than two miles each day, briskly, with the dog.\n\"After almost a year my weight has dropped from 71kg to 55kg, and I've never felt fitter and better. My height is 172cm and the doctor has told me not to lose any more weight as my BMI is 19.\"\nFollowing her NHS Health Check, Jane has had several follow-up blood tests, all of which were clear. However, her blood pressure has remained high, so after consulting her doctor Jane started to take an ACE inhibitor, a type of blood pressure medicine.\nJane initially experienced a side effect of a bad cough, so her doctor then changed her medication and put her on a lower dose. Her blood pressure has since gone down to a reading of 129/75.\nJane has since been made aware that she has a genetic predisposition to diabetes and she now has pre-diabetes. This means that her blood glucose level is higher than normal, but not high enough to cause diabetes yet. \"The doctor said that it was only the lifestyle changes I'd made that had stopped me from becoming diabetic up until now, and that I may have to take diabetes medication in the future.\n\"I know my grandmother had type 2 diabetes and possibly my mother, too. To be forewarned is to be forearmed.\"\nJane has encouraged her friends to go for an NHS Health Check. \"I'm extremely grateful to have been made aware of my high blood pressure, which is easily treated.\n\"I've never been a pill popper and would always prefer to sort problems out where possible by myself, by doing whatever was necessary. So I would say that the health check was a wake-up call, even if I didn't like what I heard.\n\"Many people would pay large sums of money to have the test that I had for free.\"",

        "raw_content": "Ebola: Timeline of events, actions by Chris Christie\nGov. Christie on quarantined nurse: We need to protect public safety first Gov. Chris Christie comments on the unnamed health care worker who was quarantined at University Hospital in Newark for the possibility of Ebola. (Source: Gov. Christie)\nmarco@njadvancemedia.com,\nTRENTON \u2014 Here is a timeline of recent events on Ebola and action taken by the Christie administration:\nWednesday, Oct. 22: Gov. Chris Christie announced an Ebola preparedness plan during a public appearance at Hackensack Medical Center. The governor said he was satisfied with the federal government\u2019s response to date, but left the door open for additional measures. \u201cI think as most of you know, this administration takes a pretty aggressive view towards its ability to take steps that it needs to take,\u201d said Christie, adding, \u201cIf I become discontent, I will take whatever steps are necessary to protect the public health of the people of New Jersey, and if someone wants to sue me over it, they can.\u201d\nFriday, Oct. 24, about 1 p.m.: Kaci Hickox, a nurse for Doctors Without Borders, lands at Newark Liberty International Airport intending to catch a connecting flight home to Maine. She passed the \"enhanced\" medical screening given to all passengers from West Africa, but when screeners learned of her volunteer work with Ebola patients, she said they took her aside for more questioning. Hickox would later be tested with forehead thermometer, which showed she had a temperature of 101 degrees, but which she insisted was flawed.\nOct. 24, about 4 p.m.: Christie and New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo announce additional screening measures at Newark and JFK airports, including mandatory quarantining people who provided services to Ebola patients in West African countries of Liberia, Sierra Leone and Guinea.\nOct. 24, evening: Hickox is transferred to University Hospital where she says an oral thermometer test showed she did not have a fever. \u201cI explained that an oral thermometer would be more accurate and that the forehead scanner was recording an elevated temperature because I was flushed and upset,\u201d Hickox wrote in a letter published by the Dallas News on Saturday. \u201cAfter my temperature was recorded as 98.6 on the oral thermometer, the doctor decided to see what the forehead scanner records. It read 101. The doctor felt my neck and looked at the temperature again. 'There\u2019s no way you have a fever,\u2019 he said. \"\u2018Your face is just flushed.\u2019\u201d\nOct. 24, 7:14 p.m.: Chrisitie (by Tweet) and state Department of Health (by email) announced her fever and her transfer to the hospital.\n\"This evening, that health care worker developed a fever & is in isolation &being evaluated at University Hospital Newark.\" @NJDeptofhealth\n\u2014 Governor Christie (@GovChristie) October 25, 2014\nSaturday, Oct. 25, 6:40 a.m.: The state Department of Health announces Hickox\u2019s preliminary test for the Ebola virus came back negative. The agency said Hickox would continue to be quarantined and under observation at University Hospital. \u201cThe individual remains under mandatory quarantine for 21 days and will be closely monitored by public health officials,\u201d the statement read.\nOct. 25, about 3:30 p.m.: Christie acknowledges to reporters during a campaign stop in Iowa that Hickox tested negative for Ebola, but said she is \u201cobviously ill.\u201d \u201cWhen I left this morning she still had a fever and she\u2019s being tested for other illnesses after the Ebola test came back negative,\u201d he said. \u201cThere\u2019s no question that the woman is ill, the question is what is her illness. It\u2019s not definitive, at least it was not definitive the last time I checked which was about 3 hours or so when I called.\u201d\nOct. 25, late afternoon: Hickox\u2019s mother Karen tells NJ Advance Media that her daughter is frustrated and that her temperature tested normal at University Hospital.\nSunday, Oct. 26, morning: Hickox describes being shocked and then angered by the state\u2019s protocols on CNN\u2019s Candy Crowley\u2019s State of the Union. \"This is an extreme that is really unacceptable, and I feel like my basic human rights have been violated,\" Hickox said. \u201cTo put me through this emotional and physical stress is completely unacceptable,\" she said. Hickox also took issue with Christie describing her as \"obviously ill.\u201d \"First of all, I don't think he's a doctor; secondly, he's never laid eyes on me; and thirdly, I've been asymptomatic since I've been here,\" Hickox said. The protocols also draw criticism from Doctors Without Borders and the American Civil Liberties Union.\nOct. 26, 10:30 p.m.: Christie\u2019s office announces \u201cNew Jersey is not changing its quarantine protocol,\u201d but says in a statement that health care providers will \u201cbe subject to a mandatory quarantine order and quarantined at home.\u201d\nMonday, Oct. 27, 9:30 a.m.: Christie\u2019s office announces Hickox will be discharged.\nOct. 27, about 1:15 p.m.: Hickox leaves University Hospital after spending more than 65 hours under quarantine.\nOct. 27, afternoon: Christie insisted during a campaign stop he hasn\u2019t reversed his decision on mandatory quarantines and Hickox was discharged from the hospital after no displaying symptoms for 24 hours. \u201cIf she was continuing to be ill she\u2019d have to stay. She hadn\u2019t had any symptoms for 24 hours and she tested negative for Ebola,\u201d he said. \u201cSo there was no reason to keep her.\u201d\nMatt Arco may be reached at marco@njadvancemedia.com.

        "raw_content": "Tensions grow at southern border\nEmma Welsh, news & managing editor|January 14, 2019\nA fence lines the border between the United States and Mexico. As conflicts worsen, the government remains shutdown in dispute over the construction of a larger wall separating the two countries.\nTensions are growing within the United States government regarding border security with Mexico. The conflicts at the border and in Washington, DC appear to be worsening.\nMeanwhile, the government shutdown persists, and the wall appears no closer to being built.\n\u201cThe tension when I was growing up was over (economics),\u201d social studies teacher Dana Hilliard said. \u201cI remember people were talking about how people\u2013 who were legal\u2013 were coming into our country in order to gain American jobs.\u201d\nAlthough the blame for tensions has changed over the years, it\u2019s undeniable that conflict has existed along the southern United States border for many years.\n\u201cWith terrorism, we\u2019re putting a lot of focus on drugs and gang activity. More of the tension is that people are wondering who is coming in,\u201d Hilliard said.\nA lot of people aren\u2019t as informed as they should be on the topic.\u201d\n\u2014 junior Shelby Lester\nTrying to monitor who enters the country has become increasingly difficult. Since the attack on Sept. 11, 2001, people have become worried about what may be coming next. However, this is hard to manage with the growing number of migrants hoping to enter.\n\u201cThere\u2019s a lot of immigrants who want to come to the United States,\u201d junior Shelby Lester said. \u201cWe just don\u2019t have the means and resources to help them.\u201d\nWith the magnitude of the influx of people migrating to the United States, it\u2019s unrealistic that every single one of them will be accepted\u2013especially because of the Immigration and Nationality Act.\n\u201cCountries have quotas on the number of people who can come into our country legally every year, and a lot of people don\u2019t know that,\u201d Lester said. \u201cA lot of people aren\u2019t as informed as they should be on the topic.\u201d\nThe Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965 limits the number of people per country who can migrate to the United States per year in an effort to maintain a stable population. Some countries want to migrate more than others.\n\u201cA lot of (the tension) has to do with the fact that international migration patterns are going to be from less developed nations to more developed nations,\u201d Hilliard said.\nAlong with the large economic gap, there are significant cultural differences that can be brought into the United States because of immigration.\n\u201cIt\u2019s a co-mingling of different peoples, which inherently causes problems to arise because of different values,\u201d senior Rami Bikdash said. \u201cA lot of people are fundamentally against the idea of other people coming in because they view it as a dilution of our values.\u201d\nConflicting values are bound to present disputes. Especially in a population as large as Northwest, however far from the actual border it may be.\n\u201cNorthwest is a very good depiction of society; we have a lot of students who want tighter border security, and then we have a lot of students that don\u2019t that it\u2019s necessary,\u201d Hilliard said. \u201cWe are a pretty good image of what\u2019s going on politically in Washington and the world.\u201d\nNorthwest embodies a vast spectrum of students socially, academically, and of course politically. Government- centered conversations are not uncommon, but regardless of personal party alignment, everyone wants what is best for the country as citizens of the United States.\nWe are a pretty good image of what\u2019s going on politically in Washington and the world.\u201d\n\u2014 social studies teacher Dana Hilliard\n\u201cRepublicans and Democrats both want the same results. We just have very different ideas on how to reach that,\u201d Hilliard said. \u201cIt\u2019s going to cause some tensions and some disagreements among students.\nAs time passes, and Washington D.C. remains at a standstill, we can only hope that the government keeps its citizens best interests at heart when the decision is made.\n\u201cTensions in the government are reflected by tensions in the people,\u201d Bikdash said.",

Oncologists are worried about how this impacts end-of-life decision making.\nMany Terminal Cancer Patients Mistakenly Believe A Cure Is Possible\nDr. Joel Policzer checks on his patient, Lillian Landry, in the hospice wing of an Florida hospital in 2009.

Pat Carter/AP\nDr. Joel Policzer checks on his patient, Lillian Landry, in the hospice wing of an Florida hospital in 2009. A new study found that many terminally ill cancer patients don't fully understand their prognosis.\nDoctors are often called upon to deliver bad news to patients, and there isn't much that's worse than a diagnosis of an advanced-stage cancer for which there is no cure.\nBut there's new evidence that a surprisingly large majority of patients who receive this news don't fully comprehend it, or perhaps willfully choose to ignore it.\nAlmost three out of every four patients diagnosed with stage IV lung or colon cancer believe that chemotherapy can cure them of their disease, according to a survey of more than 1,100 cancer patients by the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. And yet for cancers diagnosed at that late of a stage, chemotherapy has been definitively shown to extend lifespan by only a few months at best.\nDeborah Schrag, a physician at Dana-Farber who helped conduct the study, says patients who don't understand the severity of their diagnosis can't make plans for their final few months or years.\n\"If you think chemo is going to cure you,\" she says, \"maybe you don't have that conversation about a trip to California. Maybe you spend your time getting chemo and you don't spend time on your boat. We know that when people have unrealistic expectations they're much less open to discussing end-of-life planning.\"\nThe survey, which appears this week in the New England Journal of Medicine, also found that patients who rated their doctor as being a good communicator were more likely to hold mistaken beliefs about their prognosis. Schrag says this indicates that some doctors may be trying to tell their patients what they think they want to hear, rather than the truth.\n'Best Care': We Make Death Harder Than It Has To Be\n\"It's not that [doctors] don't disclose that chemotherapy won't cure the cancer. It's that we disclose quickly and then move on,\" she says. \"But patients always want positive news. In the short term, people will be happier if you give them happier news.\"\nSandra Swain, an oncologist at the Washington Hospital Center and president of the American Society of Clinical Oncology, says it's ultimately the doctor's responsibility to ensure that their patient fully understands what's happening to them.\n\"There needs to be continued communication about the prognosis and it needs to be done early on,\" she says. \"I don't think physicians do it particularly well. ... Many physicians just have a very hard time communicating that they're not going to be able to cure the patient.\"\nListen to Swain talk about how she communicates with terminally ill cancer patients:\nSwain says the results of the Dana-Farber survey are a sign that doctors need do a better job of helping terminally ill cancer patients let go of false hopes without squashing all hope.\n\"You don't want to take away hope from patients,\" says Swain. \"They're not going to be cured but it's not like they're going to die instantly. So it is a really hard balance to achieve.\"\nAnd comprehensive palliative care still be hard to find: only 59 percent of hospitals with more than 50 beds offer it, as Michelle Andrews reported last year.",

        "raw_content": "The Second Spanish Period (1784-1821)\nThe Flag of the Second Spanish Period\nIn return for Spain\u2019s help during the American Revolution, Florida was transferred back to Spain by the Treaties of Versailles, part of the Peace of Paris, in 1783. Just like when the whole Spanish population moved to Cuba when the British took control, this time most of the British departed for British colonies in the Caribbean in spite of Governor Zespedes\u2019 promise of equal treatment. The Menorcans, however, were very glad to have a Spanish, Catholic government return to power.\nGovernor Zespedes knew Florida needed more people, regardless of nationality, in order to survive. He offered large land grants, a ten year tax free occupancy, and a cash bonus to any family who would come to start a farm. He even offered to pay each pioneer 1.5 cents a day for feed supplies. Despite these generous offers, it was necessary by 1786 to drop the restrictions on non-Catholic settlers. Equally significant, the Spanish Government agreed to allow the migration of slave holders into Florida for the first time.\nOne of the slave holders who took advantage of the land grant offer was Zephaniah Kingsley, who along with his wife Anna Madgigine Jai, herself an ex-slave from Africa, owned and managed Kingsley Plantation on Fort George Island.\nThis influx of different people, including Americans, made the Second Spanish period much more cosmopolitan than the First Spanish Period had been. It also brought about the Patriot\u2019s Rebellion (1811-1812) in which American \u201cpatriots\u201d living in Spanish Florida, clandestinely supported by Georgians and unofficially recognized by the US government, attempted to rise up and seize Florida for the United States. With the promise of 200 acres of Florida land as an incentive, dozens of Georgia farmers marched to attack St. Augustine. They destroyed Spanish plantations and left only after a British fleet intervened. The US government immediately declared no knowledge of the plan.\nStill, Spain\u2019s days in Florida were numbered. By 1800 Spain's fortune and power were waning. Her once mighty empire was crumbling. There was little money to maintain the Castillo and even less for the outpost fort at Matanzas. Erosion and rainwater took their toll. FortMatanzas was already in poor condition by 1821 when Florida was ceded to the United States through the Adams-On\u00eds Treaty which turned Florida over to the U.S. in exchange for canceling out a $5 million debt, reimbursement for runaway slaves who had found refuge in Florida.\nBack to \"Stories\"",

Additionally, grasses and other vegetation at the lower elevations have begun to dry out. This year, vegetation is drying out faster than average due to the low snowpack the park received over the winter.\nFirefighters will spend the week conducting their annual readiness reviews that demonstrate skills and proficiency for fighting fire. In addition, daily weather patterns, temperatures, and moisture levels are closely monitored, which aids in determining if vegetation is within prescription for burning.\nIn preparation for the fire season, the park has begun defensible space inspections throughout Yosemite's communities, including Aspen Valley, Hodgdon Meadows, Foresta, El Portal, Yosemite Valley, and Wawona. Residents and homeowners are urged to clear a defensible space around homes and other structures in an effort to reduce the risk of fire hazards.\nYosemite National Park officials are committed to ensuring sufficient fire crews will be onsite during all prescribed burn activity throughout the fire season. These resources will monitor fire behavior and weather, as well as support burnout and holding operations to ensure firefighter safety, public safety, and to prevent prescribed fire escape. With the official declaration of fire season, pile burning will be discontinued until further notice.\nFor more information about fire in Yosemite National Park, please visit https://www.nps.gov/yose/parkmgmt/firemanagement.htm.",

        "title": "Columbia River Treaty | Northwest Power and Conservation Council",
        "raw_content": "Treaty History and Politics\nFrom Treaty to Trust\nTreaty future\nThe Columbia River Treaty (full text) between the United States and Canada mandated the construction and operation of three water-storage dams in British Columbia (Canadian storage) for the purpose of providing flood control and optimum hydropower generation in the Columbia River Basin in Canada and/or the United States. The Treaty also authorized construction of Libby Dam on the Kootenai River in Montana for flood control and other purposes in the United States. All four dams were built.\nBy utilizing water storage sites in the upper Columbia River Basin that allowed for manipulation of the natural flows, the Treaty brought more surety and increased hydropower generation at dams downriver and also provided flood control. The Treaty was signed in January 1961 and implemented on September 16, 1964. Importantly, the Treaty considered that the value of flood control and hydropower dwarfed the value of other costs and benefits, and so it made no explicit provision for other values such as water-flow benefits for salmon and steelhead. By the time the treaty became law, salmon and steelhead had been extinct in the upper Columbia River for more than 20 years because of Grand Coulee Dam, which has no fish passage facilities for either juvenile or adult fish.\nThe treaty is implemented by entities, one for the United States and one for Canada. In a 1963 agreement, the government of Canada designated the Province of British Columbia to implement the treaty. BC Hydro, the provincial power-marketing corporation, is the Canadian entity under the treaty. For the United States, the administrator of the Bonneville Power Administration and the Northwestern Division Engineer of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers comprise the entity.\nThe treaty has no expiration date. It will continue indefinitely unless one country requests termination, which is allowed anytime after 2024, 60 years after its ratification, given at least 10 years advance notice (no later than 2014).\nIn the treaty preamble, the two countries state that construction of three dams in British Columbia \u2014 Duncan on the Duncan River, a tributary to Kootenay Lake, and Keenleyside and Mica, both on the mainstem Columbia River \u2014 would provide benefits to the two countries in the form of additional hydroelectricity and flood control \u201c. . . in a manner that will make the largest contribution to the economic progress of both countries and to the welfare of their peoples of which those resources are capable.\u201d The preamble noted that the people of the United States and Canada \u201chave, for many generations, lived together and cooperated with one another in many aspects of their national enterprises for the greater wealth and happiness of their respective nations.\u201d The Treaty was seen as a natural evolution of that cooperation.\nIn recognition of this long friendship and in order to take advantage of their shared river for economic gain, the countries agreed that Canada would provide 15.5 million acre-feet of water storage: 7 million acre-feet at Mica Dam, 7.1 million acre-feet at Keenleyside and 1.4 million acre-feet at Duncan. The Treaty also authorized the United States government to build Libby Dam, and Canada agreed that the reservoir, Lake Koocanusa (an acronym: Kootenai, Canada, USA), could back 42 miles into British Columbia.\nTo realize the downstream power benefit, the United States (Article III, Paragraph 1) . . . shall maintain and operate the hydro-electric facilities included in the base system and any additional hydro-electric facilities constructed on the main stem of the Columbia River in the United States of America in a manner that makes the most effective use of the improvement in stream flow resulting from operation of the Canadian storage for hydro-electric power generation in the United States of America power system. The United States can discharge the \u201cmost-effective-use\u201d obligation by reflecting the requirement in the studies that determine the downstream benefit. Importantly, Canada has to operate in accordance with agreed operating plans. In the absence of specific agreement, these plans are designed for flood control and to produce optimum hydroelectricity and not directly for other purposes such as providing water for irrigation, navigation, or flows to assist salmon and steelhead migration in the lower Columbia River.\nUnder the Treaty, the estimated additional usable hydropower generated in the United States compared to the 1961 United States reservoir system \u2014 the downstream power benefit \u2014 is shared equally by the two countries. Comparison to the 1961 system gives Canada a \u201cfirst added\u201d benefit. This, along with other limits, keeps the benefit calculation higher than the actual marginal benefit, which is significantly reduced due to the addition of reservoirs in the United States after 1961, such as those behind Libby and Dworshak dams (Dworshak is on the North Fork Clearwater River in Idaho).\nCanada\u2019s share of the downstream power benefit calculation is called the \u201cCanadian Entitlement.\u201d The original Canadian Entitlement, following completion of the dams, was 1,377 megawatts of capacity (half of the total additional dependable generating capability at the United States dams) and 759 average-megawatts of electrical energy (this means 759 average megawatts delivered at rates up to a maximum of 1,377 megawatts for a period of a year). The countries anticipated these amounts would decline over time. This is because it was assumed that 1) increasing demand for power would be met with new thermal-fuel power plants \u2013 coal, natural gas, nuclear \u2014 for baseload generation, and 2) the dams increasingly would be used to supply extra energy \u2014 peaking power \u2014 when needed.\nIn fact, new power plants were added, or planned for addition, to the Columbia River hydropower system through the Hydro-Thermal Power Program, but not as much new baseload thermal generation as the Treaty anticipated. Thus, today we rely more on the dams than the Treaty planners expected. During August 2007 through July 2008, the Canadian Entitlement was 1,241 megawatts of capacity and 482.8 average-megawatts of energy. This energy amount was enough for about 280,000 average electrically heated homes.\nWhether the Entitlement is 759 or 482.8 average-megawatts, it is a lot of electricity then and now. In 1964, the Province of British Columbia didn\u2019t need it and wasn\u2019t anticipating needing it for 30 years because the province was constructing a large dam on the Peace River in the northeastern part of the province. So the province sold the Canadian Entitlement to a consortium of utilities in the United States, organized as the Columbia Storage Power Exchange (CSPE), for 30 years for a lump sum of $253.93 million in U.S. dollars (adjusted from $254.4 million for early payment). This was considered a \u201cpre-sale\u201d of the benefits for that purpose, as it was assumed the benefits would continue to flow as long as the Treaty was in force. This \u201cpre-sale\u201d plus payments for flood control paid for a large portion of the construction of Mica, Keenleyside, and Duncan dams.\nDuncan Dam, at the northern end of Kootenay Lake, was completed in 1967; Keenleyside Dam, just north of Castlegar, was completed in 1968; and Mica Dam, about 80 miles north of Revelstoke, began storing water in 1973 and generating power in 1976. Libby Dam on the Kootenai River in Montana began operation in 1972 and was completed in 1975. The Canadian Entitlement benefits do not include the effect of Libby Dam operations, but the province expected to acquire more than 200 average-megawatts of power benefits downstream in Canada from Libby operations. On the basis of the anticipated additional stream-flow regulation, and the expected increased power benefits, BC Hydro built its Kootenay Canal plant on the Kootenay River just downstream of Nelson at ratepayer expense.\nThe 1964 pre-sale of Canadian downstream benefits expired in phases 30 years after the scheduled completion of each Canadian dam. With the expiration of the pre-sale deal, Canada became entitled to receive actual power, as opposed to the \u201cpre-sale\u201d cash equivalent. In April 1998, the United States and Canada agreed on new terms for the continued return of the Canadian Entitlement. The 1998 agreement called for power to be returned to British Columbia in phases at locations other than the Treaty-stipulated location of Oliver, British Columbia, a small town on the Okanagan River at the border. That was originally a convenient point between the eastern and western extremes of the basin, but it was not where the province wanted the power, then or in 1998, and would have required the United States to build new transmission to deliver it. Also, the 1998 agreement allowed BC Hydro to market its share of the energy in the United States, if it chose to, rather than accepting delivery in British Columbia. Today the energy is delivered to British Columbia over two 500,000-volt lines at Blaine, Washington, south of Vancouver, and a 230,000-volt line at Nelway, Idaho, north of Sandpoint.\nThe idea for the Columbia River Treaty of 1964 dates to 20 years earlier when, in March 1944, the United States and Canada asked the International Joint Commission (IJC) to investigate \u201c... whether a greater use than is now being made of the waters of the Columbia River System would be feasible and advantageous.\u201d The IJC took 15 years \u2014 until April 1959 \u2014 to complete its report.\nThe report discussed the potential benefits of hydropower development in the Canadian Columbia River Basin and how the benefits might be apportioned. Nine diplomatic negotiating sessions, the first one in February 1960, followed. The Treaty was completed and signed in January 1961 and ratified by the two countries three years later.\nWhile the treaty authorized an equal sharing of the additional hydropower generation that results from additional water storage and coordinated water releases, the impacts of the dams were not equally shared by the two countries. The dams flooded fertile river valleys in British Columbia where the population was concentrated. More than 2,000 people, hundreds of farms, and 13 communities were displaced. In addition, Libby Dam flooded productive agricultural land in both countries. Operation of the treaty dams caused yo-yo water level fluctuations in the Kootenay(i) and Columbia rivers, which led to bank erosion problems.\nThe treaty gave the United States large amounts of power and flood control benefits from the operation of Canadian dams and Libby, plus small amounts of recreation and fishery benefits, adverse impacts on other fish, and loss of land upstream of Libby. British Columbia got three dams, large power benefits from the treaty dams and at Canadian dams downstream of Libby; flood control downstream; beneficial and adverse impacts to recreation, navigation, and fish; major flooding and dislocation of whole communities; and one-half of the estimated power and flood-control benefits created downstream in the United States. (The province took its share of the U.S. flood control benefits for the first 60 years in up-front cash payments, and took a one-time cash payment for the additional hydropower benefits for the first 30-years. These funds were used to build Duncan and Keenleyside dams and partially fund construction of Mica Dam.\nConstruction of the Treaty dams was the second major power development in the United States to impact the people and environment of southeastern British Columbia. First, the completion of Grand Coulee Dam in 1941 eliminated salmon runs from the mainstem Columbia River and its tributaries in British Columbia; 20 years later whole towns were relocated for the benefit of power generation and flood control in Canada and the United States. Unlike Grand Coulee Dam, however, which the Canadian federal government did not protest, this time Canada got something in return \u2014 a 50-percent share of the additional power and flood-control benefits that Canadian storage operations created in the United States (Canada\u2019s share of the United States flood control benefit was calculated at $64.4 million; this was paid by the United States when the projects began operating, with small increments being paid later for early completion of Duncan and Keenleyside). This was an important concession by the Americans, whose official position in the initial treaty negotiations had been that Canada deserved a monetary settlement for the inconvenience of storing water and displacing its people, but not an actual share of the downstream benefit. In fact, the downstream benefit was the quid-pro-quo to Canada, according to Professor Nigel Bankes of the University of Calgary Law School, who has written extensively about the Treaty.\nTim Newton, an expert on the Treaty who retired from PowerEx, the power marketing subsidiary of B.C. Hydro, observes that while the governments of British Columbia and Canada shared a vision of increased water storage, more hydropower, and industrial development in British Columbia, it was a vision often clouded by shorter-term goals. Electric utilities and government agencies in both countries recognized the potential of the Columbia River to provide the desired storage and power, but the IJC was taking its time on its investigation, and cross-border water-storage discussions in the late 1940s and early 1950s seemed to be going slowly as well.\n\u201cWith a change of government in British Columbia, Kaiser Aluminum proposed building a \u2018low\u2019 dam on the Arrow Lakes, at Kaiser\u2019s expense, and Kaiser would provide the province with 20 percent to 30 percent of the downstream benefits. This was too tempting for the new government, and they signed a memorandum of understanding with Kaiser in September 1954,\u201d Newton said. \u201cThe provincial opposition parties used this agreement as a political issue, and the Canadian federal government joined them in opposing this plan on the grounds that it would not allow full development of the Canadian watershed, although it was partly to strengthen the federal role in negotiating the anticipated treaty.\u201d\nThe \u201clow\u201d Arrow Lakes dam was expected to cost $30 million, but the deal lapsed when the Canadian Parliament approved Bill No. 3, the \u201cInternational Rivers Improvement Act,\u201d the same year. Bill No. 3 required a federal license for any project in Canada that altered the flow on a river that crosses the international border. The federal government made it clear it would not approve a license for the Arrow Lakes dam.\n\u201cAt this point in time, the [Canadian and American] federal objective was to keep the IJC process on track,\u201d Newton said. \u201cA lot of the discussion related to the loss of the Canadian competitive position that would result if the ownership of major natural resources was given to \u2018foreign\u2019 entities. Another major federal objective was to convince the U.S. that returning 50 percent of the downstream benefits would be better for the U.S. than having Canada divert water out of the Columbia Basin.\u201d\nNonetheless, both countries remained interested in building dams in the Canadian headwaters in order to boost power generation downstream \u2014 and also in British Columbia. In 1955, the Puget Sound Utilities Council proposed Mica Dam to provide 1,400 megawatts of power for British Columbia and 1,800 for the United States. The same year, the Canadian Parliament conducted hearings on power developments in the upper Columbia Basin, including diverting the Kootenay and Columbia in ways that would increase power generation. As part of the federal strategy the Canadian Section of the International Joint Commission, for example, proposed to divert 15 million acre-feet at Revelstoke \u2014 about 67 percent of the river\u2019s flow at that point \u2014 through a mountain tunnel into the Fraser River for exclusively Canadian hydropower purposes. It ultimately didn\u2019t happen, but the political climate in both countries in the 1950s supported dam-building in the Columbia and Fraser basins. Partly to assist the IJC study, Canada ordered seven engineering studies of possible dam sites between 1956 and 1961. Meanwhile, in spite of very close cooperation at the technical level, political suspicions continued between the Canadian federal government and the British Columbia provincial government.\n\u201cDuring the negotiating period, the two levels of government managed to keep a unified approach, but even during this period there was a fundamental misunderstanding,\u201d Newton said. \u201cThe province wanted to develop both the Peace and Columbia rivers at the same time and was very public about this \u2018two-river policy.\u2019 The federal government was sure that this was a negotiating position with respect to the U.S., and also was sure that the Peace River development would be abandoned once the Treaty was signed. So the federal government believed it was negotiating for benefits that would be used in Canada immediately. This misunderstanding contributed to the delay in Canadian ratification of the Treaty.\u201d\nBoth countries supported a diplomatic process to decide on Columbia River power developments, and the result was the completion of the Columbia River Treaty, signed by President Dwight Eisenhower and Prime Minister John Diefenbaker in January 1961, and approved by the United States Senate in March. Once the Treaty was signed, British Columbia opened negotiations with the Canadian federal government so that it could implement its policy of power developments in both the Peace and Columbia rivers. To ratify the treaty it had signed, the federal government had to set aside its differences with the province and help sell the downstream benefits of the additional Canadian storage to the United States. At the same time, the federal government changed in Canada.\nNegotiating the sale of the downstream benefits, which required a Treaty protocol between the United States and Canada and agreements between Canada and British Columbia, took several years. A key issue was the question of who would pay to build the Canadian dams. Ultimately, the two countries accepted a proposal by the province\u2019s pro-development premier, William Andrew Cecil Bennett. Bennett proposed that because the power was not needed in British Columbia, the downstream power benefits could be sold to an entity in the United States for 30 years in a lump sum, and that this one-time payment could be used to pay for building the dams. This was an acceptable offer to utilities in the Pacific Northwest, and the three mid-Columbia public utilities in Washington \u2014 Grant, Chelan and Douglas \u2014 led the effort to create the Columbia Storage Power Exchange (CSPE) in May 1964. The agreement among the CSPE utilities was that half of the Canadian Entitlement would go to four private utilities and the other half to 37 public utilities, all in the Pacific Northwest service territory of the federal Bonneville Power Administration.\nBecause the Canadian Entitlement power was not needed in the Pacific Northwest until the 1980s, Bonneville helped the CSPE owners sell the Canadian Entitlement power in the early years to California utilities. First, the power was to be delivered over new high-voltage transmission lines \u2014 the Pacific Northwest/Pacific Southwest Intertie, whose construction depended on the successful completion of the Treaty (interestingly, the Treaty thus became dependent on completion of the Intertie). Second, Bonneville led the creation of a Pacific Northwest Coordination Agreement that assured owners of projects downstream of Canadian storage that major American reservoirs would be operated optimally with exchanges of power between utilities, as needed to create the expected Treaty power benefits. Third, the CSPE exchanged its rights to the Canadian Entitlement with Bonneville in return for a guaranteed amount of firm power to be delivered from Bonneville to the CSPE. This eliminated the uncertainty of selling an unknown amount from future Entitlement calculations and allowed the CSPE to obtain a lower interest rate for the sale of CSPE bonds. To raise cash to build the Canadian dams, the CSPE issued $314.1 million in revenue bonds and, after setting aside an amount to pay interest during the nine-year construction period for the dams, delivered $253.93 million, the negotiated amount of the Canadian Entitlement, to BC Hydro to build the dams.\nIt was the deal W.A.C. Bennett wanted, and it was a deal the U.S. could accept, but it wasn\u2019t the deal many people in British Columbia wanted. For example, historian Geoffrey Molyneaux wrote that the \u201chardware merchant from Kelowna\u201d (Bennett) outplayed Prime Minister John Diefenbaker and Justice Minister Davie Fulton. Molyneaux wrote that the Canadian federal government mishandled the three-way Columbia power negotiations with the United States and the province. Bennett got what he wanted; his critics claimed that the Americans did, too.\nThere were Treaty critics in the United States, as well. Dr. John Krutilla, who wrote extensively about the Treaty economics in the 1960s, thought there were better alternatives for the United States and Canada. But the consensus of most U.S. government and utility officials at the time was that although the Treaty was not the best deal for the United States, it was good enough.\nProfessor Nigel Bankes of the University of Calgary says that at the time the Treaty was signed and the dams were built, people living along the upper Kootenay River and along the Arrow Lakes saw themselves as people in the way. They knew they would suffer losses, they knew others would benefit, and they knew that all sectors of their local economies would suffer from the creation of reservoirs and their periodic fluctuations of elevation. Bankes says that in addition to the losses sustained by individuals, and the loss of historic community identities, the agricultural, mining, forestry, and fishery sectors of the economy all suffered serious and permanent setbacks. Some 231 square miles of valley bottom land was flooded. Despite the bright promise of the Treaty, for decades after ratification the benefits were realized far from the areas affected by dam construction. For some 2,300 residents of southeastern British Columbia, this was anything but the greater wealth and happiness promised in the Treaty.\nThat began to change in 1995 as the province anticipated the end of the 30-year, one-time payment for the Canadian Entitlement. Soon power would begin flowing to British Columbia from the United States, and the province wanted to be ready with a plan for spending the new money that power would create. Appropriately, the province\u2019s Legislative Assembly favored investing the downstream power benefit in the areas most affected by the Treaty dam construction. Following a year of public meetings to gather ideas on how to mitigate the impacts of the Treaty, in 1995 the Legislative Assembly approved the Columbia Basin Trust Act, which created the Columbia Basin Trust. The Trust, governed by a board of directors comprising residents of the affected areas, is empowered to spend a portion of British Columbia\u2019s share of the additional hydropower income to mitigate the social, economic, and environmental impacts of the Treaty dam construction. The amount of funding available is made possible by the sale of the Canadian Entitlement but is not dependent on the magnitude of the Entitlement or the price for which it is sold. Since its inception, the Trust has invested in social and educational programs, fish and wildlife habitat improvements, development of small businesses, and tourism-related economic developments including major investments in golf and ski resorts.\nThe Trust also is involved in hydropower development. Columbia Power Corporation, which is owned by the province, has a primary mandate to undertake power-project investments as the agent of the province on a joint-venture basis with the Trust. Columbia Power and the Trust formed the Power Project Joint Venture to assess and advance power projects. Each owns half of the joint venture, with Columbia Power as the manager. When a decision is made to build a new power plant or expand an existing one, a separate, jointly owned company is created for that purpose.\nThe first of these joint-venture projects was the 187-megawatt power plant at Keenleyside Dam, which began generating power in 2001. The facility, known as the Arrow Lakes Generating Station, is owned by Arrow Lakes Power Corporation, which is jointly owned by Columbia Power and CBT Arrow Lakes Power Development Corporation, a subsidiary of the Trust. The hydropower income is split between Columbia Power and the province.\nColumbia Power completed a 120-megawatt expansion at Brilliant Dam on the Kootenay River at Castlegar in 2007. Brilliant Dam and its existing 145-megawtt power plant were purchased in 1996 by Brilliant Power Corporation, which is owned by Columbia Power and CBT Power Corporation, another subsidiary of the Trust. Up to 90 percent of the electricity generated at the new powerhouse is sold to BC Hydro under two long-term contracts.\nColumbia Power also owns rights to build a second powerhouse at Waneta Dam at the mouth of the Pend Oreille River just north of the international border. The existing dam and powerhouse are owned by Teck Cominco Metals Ltd. Waneta Expansion Power Corporation, a company created jointly by the Trust and Columbia Power, is planning a powerhouse with a capacity up to 435 megawatts. In October 2010, Columbia Power Corporation and the Columbia Basin Trust announced they had signed a partnership agreement with Fortis, Inc., to construct the Waneta expansion powerplant. Under the agreement, Fortis has a 51-per cent share of the project, Columbia Power Corp. will own 32.5 per cent, the Columbia Basin Trust will own 16.5 per cent.\nWhile the Treaty has no specified end date, either country can terminate most of the provisions as early as September 2024 with a minimum 10 years\u2019 written notice. Under the treaty, the assured annual flood control procedures will end in 2024, whether or not the treaty is terminated, replaced by on-call flood control, in which the U.S. would ask Canada to store water after using available flood control space in U.S. reservoirs.\nAccording to the U.S. and Canadian entities, if the Treaty continues, after 2024 coordinated annual planning of optimum U.S. and Canadian hydropower operations continues, the U.S. will continue to pay Canada its entitlement, and there would be certainty in Canadian water-storage operations though Treaty planning and coordination. If the Treaty is terminated, BC Hydro would operate Mica, Keenleyside, and Duncan dams for Canadian power benefits, except for called-upon flood control and subject to river-level limits at the international border required by the 1909 Boundary Waters Treaty, and the two countries would continue to coordinate Libby Dam operations. The Canadian Entitlement would end.\nIn order to prepare a recommendation to the federal governments, the U.S. and Canadian entities conducted a series of studies to provide fundamental information about post-2024 conditions, with and without the Treaty. The studies were released for public review in July 2010 and are posted on the entities\u2019 website. These initial studies only addressed power and flood control. According to the entities, this narrow scope was necessary to allow an informed regional discussion regarding how to model other factors such as fisheries mitigation and additional irrigation withdrawals on top of the existing baseline operations. Here are some of the findings of the Phase 1 studies:\nCanadian Entitlement energy would decline over time from the current (2010) 536 average megawatts to 470 average megawatts in 2025 and about 290 average megawatts by 2040 (290 average megawatts is enough electricity to power approximately 147,000 Northwest homes for one year; 536 average megawatts is enough for about 271,000 homes). The Entitlement capacity would increase from the current 1,316 megawatts to 1,525 megawatts by 2045.\nWithout the Treaty, average annual energy production in Canada and the U.S. remained essentially unchanged, but the monthly shape of energy production varied from the coordinated operation if the treaty continues.\nWithout the Treaty the ability of the U.S. hydropower system to meet firm loads within the critical period (critical water-storage sequence) diminished by approximately 225 average megawatts. In addition, the critical period was shortened from four years to one, which may be of concern during prolonged low-inflow conditions.\nWithout the Treaty, the number of times the U.S. would invoke the called-upon flood control in Canada depends on what level of flood-control protection, or the maximum flow objective, is needed as measured at The Dalles Dam on the lower Columbia River. Flood damage begins to occur when flows at The Dalles reach about 450,000 cubic feet per second (currently the river is managed to cap maximum flows at about this level); serious damage occurs at and above 600,000 cubic feet per second. The lower the flow target at The Dalles, the deeper upstream reservoirs will be drafted during the year, with accompanying impacts to other water uses such as recreation and irrigation.\nWithout the treaty, in order to demonstrate the required \u201ceffective use\u201d of U.S. storage before calling upon Canadian storage, the U.S. projects would have to draft deeper more often during called-upon years than is required with the current flood-control operations. These deeper drafts would mean that in the called-upon years some U.S. reservoirs would fail to meet refill requirements.\nCanadian reservoirs gained some degree of operating flexibility with or without the Treaty.\nFollowing the Phase 1 studies, the U.S. entities conducted a separate series of studies, collected in what is called the Supplemental Report, in which they overlaid the current river-operating requirements \u2013 flows and spill at dams required by the Endangered Species Act to protect listed salmon and steelhead \u2013 on the Phase 1 studies. These studies give a more accurate picture of how river operations could change if the Treaty is terminated or modified. The Supplemental Report is posted on the www.crt2014-2024review.gov website.\nSome results of the supplemental studies include:\nIf the Treaty continues, outflows from Arrow and Duncan reservoirs would be lower in January than the corresponding Phase 1 scenarios because water for downstream salmon and steelhead flows (flow-augmentation) is stored during this time. There was one exception: If the flow target at The Dalles Dam is 450,000 cubic feet per second, flood control limited the capability to store flow-augmentation water.\nIf the Treaty continues, outflows from Arrow and Duncan would be higher in the spring than were shown in the Phase 1 studies, which did not account for flow augmentation. The exception, as above, was if the flow target at The Dalles is 450,000 cubic feet per second.\nWith or without the Treaty, fish operations reduced U.S. hydropower system annual generation by approximately 1,600 average megawatts.\nWith or without the Treaty, the supplemental studies produced less hydropower generation in December through April because of the attempt to keep U.S. reservoirs as high as possible in order to provide flow-augmentation water in the spring and summer.\nWith or without the Treaty, the supplemental studies produced less generation in May through August than the Phase 1 scenarios due to ESA-required spill at dams in the U.S. to aid fish migration.\nIn the Phase 1 studies, the monthly shape of system generation is dramatically different between the Treaty Continues (A and C) and Treaty is Terminated (B2) scenarios. The addition of the fish operations greatly reduces these differences in generation shape.\nThe ability to meet ESA-required spring flow objectives at McNary Dam was largely driven by the maximum flow objective at The Dalles Dam, not by continuing or terminating the Treaty.\nFor the middle 30 (out of 70) volume runoff years, terminating the Treaty caused spring flows at McNary Dam to increase slightly (3 to 13 thousand feet per second) and summer flows to decrease (12 to 14 thousand feet per second). For the lowest 20 volume runoff years, terminating the Treaty caused spring flows to increase slightly (6 thousand feet peer second) and summer flows to decrease (21 to 22 thousand feet per second).\nIn general, none of the scenarios had much of an impact on the flows at Lower Granite Dam on the Snake River in either the spring or summer.\nThrough the Phase 1 and Supplemental Studies, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has been thinking about how flood-risk management might change in the future, whether the Treaty is terminated or continues. The Corps has initiated a comprehensive Flood Risk Management (FRM) study. Here are the key questions the Corps is considering:\nWhat is the residual flood risk in the Columbia River Basin under the current Columbia River Flood Control Operating Plan?\nCan we adequately manage flood risk through a \u201ccalled upon\u201d system for Canadian storage?\nWhat are the implications of climate change for basin hydrology and flood risk between now and 2024? After 2024?\nWhat is the economic value of Canadian flood control storage to the U.S.?\nWhat are the potential non-economic (especially environmental) consequences for other river uses and benefits associated with flood-risk management alternatives?\nIn 2010, following completion of the initial studies and anticipating further studies on the way to formulating recommendations about the future of the Treaty, the U.S. and Canadian entities issued a document that, among other things defined their unique perspectives. Here are some of the points that define the U.S. Entity\u2019s perspective:\nThe lack of coordinated hydropower operations on an international river system such as the Columbia could result in significant uncertainty for downstream U.S. power, flood-control, fisheries, and other non-power river uses and operations.\nExpectations are that called-upon flood control in Canada will be needed to protect U.S. communities after 2024, but how much is needed, how it will be implemented, and how it will be paid for are still uncertain and will need to be evaluated in future work.\nU.S. reservoirs in the Northwest may have to be operated much differently for flood control after 2024, and this could have significant implications for interests around those reservoirs.\nWithout the Treaty, the U.S. retains about 300-500 average megawatts of hydropower energy annually, and 1,300-1,500 megawatts of hydropower generating capacity.\nMany of the current U.S. operations, for example, those required by Biological Opinions under the Endangered Species Act, are not considered when determining Entitlement return to Canada.\nConsistent with its responsibility for implementing the Treaty, the U.S. Entity is conducting the CRT 2014/2024 Review with input from and coordination with other federal agencies, states, tribes, and stakeholders.\nContinuation of the Treaty may be managed by the U.S. Entity and Northwest interests, but any amendment or termination must be decided by the U.S. State Department and the President, and any amendments must be approved by the U.S. Senate (with an equivalent process in Canada).\nCoordination and communication on CRT 2014/2024 Review activities continue with the Department of State. Expectations are that the U.S. Entity will provide a recommendation on the Treaty future to the Department of State by late 2013.\nAnd here are some of the points that define the Canadian Entity\u2019s perspective:\nThe Canadian Entitlement delivery is the primary benefit of the Treaty to Canada. The value of Canadian Entitlement to British Columbia is approximately $200 to $300 million annually.\nIf the Treaty is terminated, operations of Mica and Duncan dams may not change substantially, and Arrow Reservoir may be kept higher for power generation with more constant outflows throughout the year. Arrow operation is the most critical for U.S. flood control, and therefore is most impacted by called-upon operations.\nCalled-upon flood control assumptions in the Phase 1 study were too conservative and overestimated the frequency and volume of storage required. Other U.S. reservoirs need to be examined to evaluate their \u201ceffective use\u201d contribution to U.S. flood control.\nThe entities have different opinions regarding the flood control rights after 2024 (for example, whether the maximum flow objective should be 450,000 or 600,000 cubic feet per second at The Dalles Dam.\nAccording to the U.S. and Canadian entities, there was much work to be done to follow up on the Phase 1 and supplemental studies. For example, while the purpose of the Phase 1 studies was to look at post-2024 conditions with and without the current Treaty from the perspective of the two purposes of the Treaty, power and flood control, those are not the only uses of the river and dams today. Additional collaborative work was needed to understand the implications for the Treaty on alternative operations to meet ESA-required flow objectives at the U.S. dams for salmon and steelhead. Other concerns, such as ecosystem health, water supply and quality, potential climate-change impacts, cultural resources, recreation, navigation, and irrigation needed to be considered as well.\nIn 2011, 2012, and 2013, the U.S. and Canadian entities conducted studies, addressed the various issues, and formulated draft and then final recommendations to submit to their respective national governments.\nIn December 2013, the U.S. Entity released its Regional Recommendation. The recommendation was developed by the Entity with input from representatives of sovereign governments (organized as the Sovereign Review Team comprising representatives of the states of Washington, Oregon, Idaho and Montana, 10 federal agencies, and 15 tribes), and regional stakeholders through a process that involved extensive meetings and consultations throughout the Northwest. The U.S. Entity took the position that its recommendation seeks to formalize, provide certainty, and build on the many ecosystem actions already undertaken through annual or seasonal mutual agreements between the countries, while also providing a net increase in U.S. power benefits based on the actual value of coordinated operations with Canada, preserving an acceptable level of flood risk to the people of the Columbia River Basin, and continuing to recognize and implement the other authorized purposes in the basin. In the recommendation, the term \u201cmodernization\u201d of the Treaty refers to the construct of a post-2024 arrangement. According to the Entity, this construct could include amendments or revisions to the existing Treaty, diplomatic notes or protocols, or other means resulting in a \"modernized\" Treaty.\nThe following nine key principles underlie the U.S. Entity\u2019s recommendation:\nTreaty provisions should enable the greatest possible shared benefits in the United States and Canada from the coordinated operation of Treaty reservoirs for ecosystem, hydropower, and flood risk management, as well as water supply, recreation, navigation, and other pertinent benefits and uses, as compared to no longer coordinating Treaty storage operations.\nThe health of the Columbia River ecosystem should be a shared benefit and cost of the United States and Canada.\nThe minimum duration of the Treaty post-2024 should be long enough to allow each country to rely on the Treaty\u2019s planned operations and benefits for purposes of managing their long-range budgets, resource plans, and investments, but adaptable enough to allow responses to new information and changing conditions.\nAll operations of the Treaty should be based on the best available science, and, to the extent practicable, measurable outcomes.\nU.S. federal reservoirs/projects will continue to meet authorized uses consistent with applicable legislation, Indian treaties and tribal rights, the U.S. government\u2019s trust responsibility to the tribes, and other U. S. laws such as the Clean Water Act and the Endangered Species Act. Non-federal U.S. projects will continue to meet their responsibilities pursuant to their Federal Energy Regulatory Commission licenses.\nThe United States and Canada should pursue a more coordinated use of Treaty and Canadian non-Treaty storage under the Treaty to increase the flexibility to, and benefits of, meeting ecosystem-based function, power, flood risk management, and other authorized water management purposes in both countries.\nThe region anticipates impacts from climate change to all of the elements described in the recommendations. The strategy for adapting the Treaty to future changes in climate should be resilient, adaptable, flexible, and timely as conditions warrant.\nIt is recognized that modifications to the Treaty could result in new benefits and/or costs to both Canada and the United States. U.S. interests should ensure that costs associated with any Treaty operation are aligned with the appropriate party.\nImplementation of ecosystem-based functions in the Treaty should be compatible with rebalancing the entitlement and reducing U.S. power costs.\nIn March 2014, the Province of British Columbia released its recommendation, based on a draft produced by the Canadian Entity in late 2013. The Province asserted that the Treaty should continue but should be improved within the existing Treaty framework consistent with the following 14 principles:\nThe primary objective of the Treaty should be to maximize benefits to both countries through the coordination of planning and operations.\nThe ongoing impacts to the Canadian Columbia Basin to meet Treaty requirements should be acknowledged and compensated for. The level of benefits to the Province, which is currently solely in the form of the Canadian Entitlement, does not account for the full range of benefits in the United States (U.S.) or the impacts in British Columbia.\nAll downstream U.S. benefits, such as flood risk management, hydropower, ecosystems, water supply (including municipal, industrial and agricultural uses), recreation, navigation and any other relevant benefits, including associated risk reduction arising from coordinated operations compared to alternatives available to each country, should be accounted for and such value created should be shared equitably between the two countries.\nTreaty provisions post-2024 should be fixed for a sufficient duration to provide planning and operational certainty while allowing for adaptive mechanisms to address significant changes to key components and interests.\nImplementation of post-2024 flood control obligations will be consistent with the Treaty requirements that a called-upon flood control request can only be made when forecasts of potential floods indicate there is a reasonable risk of exceeding 600,000 cubic feet per second at The Dalles, Oregon, the U.S. must make effective use of all related storage in the U.S. before seeking additional help from British Columbia, and the U.S. must pay Canada compensation due as result of a called-upon operation.\nTo supplement called-upon flood control, a coordinated flood-risk management approach should maximize the benefits and mitigate impacts and risks to multiple U.S. interests as compared to a called-upon flood control regime post 2024 that includes effective use of U.S. reservoirs.\nEcosystem values are currently, and will continue to be, an important consideration in the planning and implementation of the Treaty.\nThe Province will explore ecosystem-based improvements recognizing that there are a number of available mechanisms inside and outside the Treaty.\nCurrent and future operating conditions of Canadian Columbia Basin dams and reservoirs are subject to provincial and federal licensing including Water Use Plans, where they exist, and consideration of aboriginal rights under the Canadian constitution.\nThe Province will seek improved coordination on Libby Dam and Koocanusa Reservoir operations.\nSalmon migration into the Columbia River in Canada was eliminated by the Grand Coulee Dam in 1938 (26 years prior to Treaty ratification), and is currently not a Treaty issue. British Columbia\u2019s perspective is that the management of anadromous salmon populations is the responsibility of the Government of Canada and that restoration of fish passage and habitat, if feasible, should be the responsibility of each country regarding their respective infrastructure.\nAdaptation to climate change should be incorporated in Treaty planning and implementation.\nThe Canadian entities (Province of British Columbia, and BC Hydro) will continue to consult with First Nations on a government-to-government basis and engage with Basin communities throughout any negotiation process.\nCanadian Columbia River Basin issues not related to the Treaty will be addressed through other government programs and initiatives.\nThe next step in both countries is for the U.S. State Department and Global Affairs Canada to review the recommendations. The first opportunity for either country to announce its intention regarding the future of the Treaty was September 16, 2014. Since then there has been little activity, other than staff work by the State Department and Global Affairs Canada. Since then there was little activity, other than staff work by the State Department and Global Affairs Canada.\nIn March 2015, U.S. Senator Patty Murray (D-Washington) wrote to President Obama urging that the future of the treaty receive high priority. In response, Julia Frifield, assistant secretary for legislative affairs at the State Department replied in a May 20, 2015 letter that \u201cthe Administration recognizes the significant economic and cultural role the Columbia River plays in the lives of your constituents\u201d and that \u201cthe future of the treaty is a priority.\u201d She added, \u201cinternal deliberations are gaining momentum.\u201d\nFrifield also wrote that, consistent with the U.S. Entity\u2019s recommendation, \u201cwe have decided to include flood risk mitigation, ecosystem-based function, and hydropower generation in the draft U.S. negotiating position.\u201d She said the U.S. hoped to approach Canada soon to begin \u201cdiscussions on modernization of the treaty.\u201d\nBy early 2016, there had been no public notice that those discussions had begun, but other Northwest members of Congress took advantage of the visit between President Obama and the newly elected Prime Minister of Canada, Justin Trudeau, to raise the treaty future again.\nOn March 10, 2016, Senator Maria Cantwell (D-Washington) issued a press release announcing that she had sent a letter to Trudeau \u201curging modernization of the treaty.\u201d In her news release, Cantwell wrote, \u201ca modernized Columbia River Treaty would provide opportunities for the United States and Canada to address current climate challenges and its [sic] impact on water resources.\u201d adding, \u201cI believe we must find a mutually beneficial path forward to modernize the treaty in a way that balances flood control, ecosystem-based function, and hydropower generation.\u201d\nThe following week, on March 18, U.S. Reps. Cathy McMorris-Rodgers (R-Washington) and Peter DeFazio (D-Oregon) issued a joint press release announcing that they \u201cmet with Canadian Members of Parliament this week to discuss important issues along the United States northwest border with Canada -- border security and access, water and energy policy, and the sale and transportation of goods.\u201d Included in these conversations, according to the release, was \u201cthe importance of the Columbia River Treaty \u2026 [which] plays an indispensable role in the livelihoods of those in the Pacific Northwest.\u201d They said they wrote to President Obama asking him to raise the treaty in his talks with Trudeau. They also said the downstream benefit paid annually by the Unites States to Canada under terms of the existing treaty needs to be \u201crebalanced.\u201d If it is not rebalanced by 2024, they wrote, \u201cPacific Northwest ratepayers will lose roughly $1 million every 2-3 days or about $150 million a year.\u201d They added that the State Department \u201cneeds to conclude its review process and initiate negotiations with Canada.\u201d\nFinally, on May 22, 2018, the two governments issued simultaneous news releases announcing negotiations would get under way on May 29 in Washington, D.C. These news releases are linked in the sidebar to this article.\nIn a sense, though, the public process to consider the future of the Treaty unofficially got under way in Spokane in April 2018 at a conference hosted by the Lake Roosevelt Forum, an association of governments, interest groups, state agencies, and citizens who work and live on Lake Roosevelt, the reservoir behind Grand Coulee Dam.\nThe April conference featured a speech by a U.S. State Department official, a panel discussion among Treaty interests, and a town hall meeting presided over by the U.S. negotiating team.\nThe team includes the chief U.S. State Department negotiator, Jill Smail, and representatives of the Bonneville Power Administration, Bureau of Reclamation, Army Corps of Engineers, and NOAA Fisheries.\nFrancisco \u201cPaco\u201d Palmieri, acting assistant secretary for the Bureau of Western Hemisphere Affairs in the State Department, whose responsibilities include the 1964 Treaty, promised to \u201cengage with the region\u201d as negotiations get under way and to conduct periodic public meetings during the process.\n\u201cThe brilliance of the Treaty is to determine how we share resources for mutual benefits,\u201d he said. \u201cThe Treaty is seen around the world as a model of transboundary cooperation, and we hope it will continue as a model for many, many years to come.\u201d A video of his speech is posted here.\nAt the evening town hall meeting, attended by about 125 people, Smail said the team would represent the United States and intended to pursue the regional recommendation as developed by the U.S. Entity and regional participants in 2013. The U.S. entity for Treaty implementation consists of the Bonneville Power Administration and the Corps of Engineers. While tribal governments were included in the development of the regional recommendation in 2013, they were not consulted about the original Treaty in the 1960s.\nThe United States\u2019 regional recommendation calls for continuing the primary purposes of the Treaty, hydropower and flood control, but also recognizes \u201c\u2026 there is an opportunity for inclusion of certain additional ecosystem operations to expand, enhance, and complement \u2026 existing ecosystem investments as part of the post-2024 Treaty.\u201d The B.C. Decision states, \u201cEcosystem values are currently, and will continue to be, an important consideration in the planning and implementation of the Treaty,\u201d and \u201cThe Province will explore ecosystem-based improvements recognizing that there are a number of available mechanisms inside and outside the Treaty.\u201d\nWhile the regional recommendations of the two countries recognize but do not define \u201cecosystem benefits,\u201d a coalition of Columbia River Basin tribes has defined the term (see page 7 of the hyperlinked document), in a June 2013 statement about the future of the Treaty. In the tribes\u2019 definition, ecosystem function includes a number of river operations to benefit fish and wildlife including, for example, increased spring and summer flows, higher and more stable storage reservoir levels, lower summer water temperatures, and reconnected floodplain habitats.\nEcosystem function and the makeup of the United States\u2019 negotiating team dominated public comments at the Spokane Town Hall meeting in April. Many speakers including representatives of tribes and environmental groups supported the inclusion of ecosystem considerations in a \u201cmodernized Treaty,\u201d as Smail called it, and these same groups decried the lack of tribal representation on the negotiating team. Smail said the team would represent the United States and intended to pursue the regional recommendation as developed by the U.S. Entity and regional participants, including tribes, in 2013. Tribal governments, she said, would not be part of the negotiating team.\nEarlier the same day, at the Lake Roosevelt Forum conference where Palmieri spoke, eight invited panelists representing U.S. and Canadian tribes and economic, community, and environmental interests from both sides of the border noted the many things they hope to see authorized or delivered by a modernized Treaty, from flood control to hydropower to irrigation to navigation and improved ecosystem conditions for fish and wildlife. Panelist Tom Karier, eastern Washington member of the Northwest Power And Conservation Council, represented Washington Governor Jay Inslee in advising the U.S. Entity as it developed the 2013 regional recommendation.\n\u201cWe\u2019ve been working on the Treaty for the last eight years,\u201d Karier said. \u201cThe original Treaty was simple \u2013 build dams, share benefits; but there were important omissions \u2013 the tribes, ecosystem function,\u201d he said. \u201cWhat is the objective of a new Treaty? The issue today is not whether to build dams. The key question for the next Treaty is how are those dams operated? If Canada operates them in way that is ideal for the U.S., we don\u2019t need a Treaty.\n\u201cThe real objective is how do we identify a different set of operations that would benefit the U.S. and also Canada? We need to protect human health and safety; for the most part we need some storage upriver. We need certain flows to help salmon survive. We can work together to optimize power operations, and the power system can help mitigate climate-change impacts. The right answer is in the nuances.\u201d\nThe first negotiating session of the treaty review effort took place in Washington, D.C. on May 29 and 30, 2018. Palmieri welcomed the U.S. and Canadian negotiating teams, thanking them for \"more than 50 years of remarkable coordination.\" The press and public were excluded from the closed-door session, and afterward officials would not discuss specific topics, but U.S. officials reiterated their commitment to use the 2013 Regional Recommendation as the basis of their negotiating posiiltions.\nIn written remarks before the Washington, D.C. session, Palmieri said, \"Good treaties make good neighbors. The United States and Canada have a long, positive history of engagement on the Columbia River.\" He said he expected that cooperative spirit to continue in the negotiations. In a news release after the sessions, the State Department said Palmieri lauded the long history of \"excellent transboundary collaboration in the Columbia River Basin.\"\nA second negotiating session was conducted in August in Nelson, British Columbia, and a third in Portland in October 2018. A fourth is scheduled December 12-13 in Vancouver, B.C. A second public meeting was conducted in Portland in September and another is planned in January 2019; the site and date have not been announced, but it likely will be in British Columbia.\nAt the Portland public meeting, the remote potential but real concern for flooding low-lying areas around Portland if the treaty is not revised dominated the remarks. Coincidentally, 2018 is the 70th anniversary of the Vanport Flood, which wiped out the community along the Columbia River north of Portland, leaving 15 people dead and 18,000 homeless. The 1948 flood was a key event that prompted the initial talks between the United States and Canada about a flood-control treaty for the Columbia River, which begins in British Columbia.\nPortland Mayor Ted Wheeler and representatives of the ports of Portland and Vancouver, and Portland-area diking districts, predicted that flood risk would increase for billions of dollars in commerce and property if the treaty expired under its existing language, which would change flood control rules. Unless the treaty is changed, at the end of its 60-year life in 2024, \u201cassured\u201d flood control now provided by Canada would change to a regime in which the United States would \u201ccall upon\u201d Canada to hold water in reservoirs in British Columbia to control flooding downriver, and pay for it. Under the current treaty, the United States paid for 60 years of flood control when the treaty was ratified by both countries.\nWheeler said the city recognizes the \u201ccomplexity and sensitivity of the process needed to balance the needs of our region in order to modernize the treaty,\u201d and that flood-risk management, regional economic benefits provided by the treaty, comprehensive ecosystem management of river flows, salmon and lamprey recovery, and tribal sovereignty and treaty rights are key issues important to the city that should be addressed in the negotiations. He also said, as did several other speakers, that tribes should be included on the negotiating team. No tribal representatives spoke at the hearing, although several were in the audience; tribal representatives met privately with the U.S. team earlier in the day.\nBill Bradbury and Jim McKenna, jointly representing Oregon Governor Kate Brown, said 40 percent of the power Oregonians consume comes from the Columbia River and that a new or revised treaty \u201cmust provide Oregon access to affordable, reliable, sustainable electric power\u201d while also assuring continued control of potential floods, which could wreak havoc with \u201cnational assets\u201d including the Portland airport and Columbia River ports, and also vast areas of low-lying neighborhoods. The treaty also must continue to provide a mechanism for irrigation water withdrawals without affecting ecosystem benefits, McKenna said.\n\u201cThe Columbia River Treaty modernization must not result in increased flood risk for the lower Columbia,\u201d Bradbury said. If the treaty were left to run its course, \u201chow would called-upon payments to Canada be calculated, and who would pay for it?\u2019 he asked.\nLead negotiator Smail, who presided at the Sept. 6 Portland meeting as she had in Spokane in April, said the U.S. and Canadian teams \u201chave been quite busy\u201d since the April public meeting. She noted the two negotiating sessions and the April public meeting. But as she said at the April meeting and reiterated at the Portland meeting, tribes will not be part of the negotiating team. Canadian first nations are not included on the Canadian negotiating team, either.\nReading from a prepared statement, Smail said, \u201cwe value the Tribes\u2019 expertise and experience and are working with them to develop a mechanism for meaningful engagement throughout the negotiations.\u201d Tribes were involved in developing the U.S. regional recommendation but are not represented on the negotiating team.\n\u201cThis is a very exciting time to be working on the Treaty,\u201d Smail continued. \u201cPeople here in the Northwest have anticipated and planned for this for many years. At the Department of State, we are eager to move forward to help define how Americans and Canadians \u2013 including Tribes in the United States and First Nations in Canada \u2013 will continue to mutually benefit from the Treaty.\u201d Perhaps in a nod to the current tensions with Canada over the North American Free Trade Agreement, she said the treaty \u201cis an extremely important agreement with one of our best allies and partners in the hemisphere. We deeply value our unique and essential relationship with Canada.\u201d\nOne issue important to American tribes and Canadian first nations, reintroduction of salmon to the Columbia River Basin above Grand Coulee Dam, which has blocked their passage since the late 1930s, was raised by several people, prompting responses from Lorri Gray, Northwest regional director of the Bureau of Reclamation, which operates the dam, and Smail.\n\u201cThe topic has been put on the table,\u201d Gray said. \u201cIt\u2019s a technically difficult question, trying to figure out what that looks like, but we are listening. We understand the interest, and we also understand the technical difficulties.\u201d\nSmail said fish reintroduction \u201cwill be discussed with Canada at some point in the negotiations,\u201d adding, \u201cwe have agreed to that.\u201d\nEnergy Fish and wildlife\nColumbia River Treaty Documents\nU.S. regional recommendation on the future of the Treaty, December 13, 2013\nCanadian recommendation, March 14, 2014\nU.S. State Department news release on the beginning of negotiations, May 22, 2018\nU.S. State Department Columbia River Treaty website\nCanadian recommendation on the future of the Treaty\nNews release from Global Affairs Canada on the beginning of negotiations, May 22, 2018",

        "raw_content": "De Blasio says people 'should expect more' explosive devices; says Trump has created 'atmosphere of hatred'\nMayor Bill de Blasio delivers remarks during a press conference after NYPD personnel removed an explosive device from Time Warner Center Wednesday, Oct. 24, 2018. (Kevin Hagen for AP)\nAs two more explosive devices were found Thursday, Mayor de Blasio said people should be on alert for more \u2014 but don\u2019t expect Trump to walk back the \u201catmosphere of hate\u201d that\u2019s enabled them, he cautioned.\n\u201cWe have every reason to believe there might be some more and we have to be ready for that,\u201d de Blasio said during an appearance on CNN Thursday morning.\nThat comes after yet another device \u2014 with the same return address as the others \u2014 was found at the offices of actor Robert DeNiro in Tribeca. Another was found in Delaware, mailed to former Vice President Joe Biden.\nThere\u2019s no specific information about additional devices, de Blasio said. New Yorkers should be vigilant, he said \u2014 and call authorities immediately if they spot anything specific.\n\"There's nothing beyond what happened this morning with Robert DeNiro's office, but we are ready to deal with more. Clearly there's a pattern,\u201d he said.\nA day after saying it was time to \u201cunify,\u201d President Trump on Twitter instead blamed the \u201canger\u201d in the country on the media. CNN, a network the president has berated, was among the recipients of the explosive devices.\nDe Blasio said nobody should expect Trump to change his tone, even amid the attempts at violence.\n\u201cHe has created an atmosphere of hatred and division in this country, but it's not new for Donald Trump. We're not going to get a different result from Donald Trump,\u201d de Blasio said. \u201cThis is who he is. This is who he was back in the 1980s here in this city, fomenting hatred and division. This is who he is going to be.\u201d\nBut that doesn\u2019t define the American people, de Blasio said \u2014 and he said they, and not Trump, can solve the problem.\n\u201cI'm a little frustrated that everything keeps coming back to Donald Trump. In the end this is an American problem,\u201d de Blasio said. \u201cWe have to solve it ourselves, as leaders but as every day Americans, we have to create an atmosphere of civility again, we have to create an atmosphere of mutual respect even if we disagree on things politically.\u201d\nThat includes an \u201catmosphere of respect\u201d for the media \u2014 an entity de Blasio has repeatedly tangled with himself.\n\u201cYou can disagree on the coverage of a story, you can disagree with an outlet, but respect the institution of the media because it protects our democracy,\u201d he said. \u201cDonald Trump is not going to change, we have to change.\"",

        "raw_content": "Fact: Payton was a hero on the football field\nFriday, September 30th, 2011 12:28 PM\nA 9-year-old Brad Spencer thinks he sees Jim McMahon riding up on a blue moped in the parking lot at Bears training camp in Platteville, Wis., while his mother is not distracted by anything but Walter Payton's right arm. The photo was taken by Spencer's step-dad, who seemed a little distracted himself.\nIt was McMahon on the blue moped, and yes he berated Spencer for having a Dallas Cowboys shirt on at Bears camp. That and tube socks, what was he thinking?\nI was just as infuriated as any other Walter Payton fan when it was announced that a book was coming out depicting the legendary Bears running back as a drug abuser and womanizer. But after finding that one of the author\u2019s main sources was none other than Payton\u2019s longtime agent and friend, I quickly changed my perspective.\nWhy the initial reaction? Because here we are in an age of sleazy, second-hand reporting that feeds off rumor and innuendo for nothing but fame and the almighty dollar. But this is a real biography about an outstanding football player and a complex man.\nWalter Payton was a hero on the football field, that\u2019s what we all witnessed. It\u2019s a fact. Off the field he was someone most of us never really knew. His family and his friends knew the real man. The Paytons, including his wife, Connie, issued a statement deriding Jeff Pearlman\u2019s book Sweetness: The Enigmatic Life of Walter Payton, but also acknowledging that Walter \u201cwas not perfect.\u201d\nI will eventually read the book, and whether or not I find the more scandalous revelations to be truthful, it won\u2019t change my opinion of the football player.\nPayton died in 1999 at the age of 45. The video of him and his son, Jarrett, weeping during the press conference when Walter announced to the public he had cancer was heartbreaking. It was a moment that really wasn\u2019t supposed to be shared with the public. But it was real. It was personal. It was something the public usually doesn\u2019t see or is often shielded from. Payton was dying. He knew it. His son knew it. And, right then, everyone else did too.\nIt made you realize that Walter Payton, the Teflon tailback who shredded defenses for the Bears for so many seasons \u2014 and was nice enough to indulge a goofy-looking 9-year-old kid who seems distracted (while his mother is enraptured) for a photo at training camp \u2014 was, after all, human.\nRegardless if you buy the book or not, his personal life should not take away the fact of his talents at football. As for his son, Jarrett, he is a wonderful person to talk with, his sister Brittney Payton, is just as nice, and Mrs. Payton, she is a wonderful person. Don't make to much out of a book that is suppose to sell on the private life of someone. Enjoy the times you knew of what was shown you of Walter Payton.\nDan from River Forest\nI continue to be amazed at the vitriol that's be hurled at the author of this book (albeit not much here). Athletes are just people -- flawed like the rest of us and there is no good reason to hide that from the world. They chose to make their living as a public figure and there is just no right to hide the full person. Interestingly everybody seems focused on just 30 pages from a 490 page book which generally paints a favorable picture of a complex human being.\nPosted: October 3rd, 2011 10:47 PM\nBrad, you Mom looks a bit like Susan Saraendon.\nWhen I was a kid no one ever wanted to be some lousy player from Cincinatti. We all wanted to be #34. He was a hero. A football hero. Tell-all or biography call it what you will, it is distasteful to try to capitalize off of another man's life by selling the seedy stuff rather than the good. The title alone should tell you what Pearlman is about.\njohn murtagh from oak park\nPosted: October 3rd, 2011 10:16 AM\nDavid - I agree. Tell-all books can have historical and even educational value, but you won't sell many without writing one without mentioning the celebrity, star, or heroes name in it.\nI hate to break it to you Brad, but you're STILL goofy looking. But I digress. Walter Payton was among a tiny handful of athletes who define their profession. Run, pass, catch and block. Oh, lordy could he block. And he'd turn upfield at the end of a run to deliver a blow. One NFL defensive back once said he was preparing to play Walter by tackling trees in his back yard. If he had some personal flaws, it seems to me he paid for them with an especially cruel and painful death.\nPosted: October 2nd, 2011 8:55 PM\nI'm baffled that you guys have spent your time over-thinking a word in the headline of a blog entry. But by all means, please continue to do so. The more views, the better ...\nSo by anyone's definition, are the men and women in Iraq fighting for American Freedom?\nJGeil from Oak Park\nDavid, I agree with you entirely. And I don't think it was a digression. Just a ranging discussion. I'd say it's okay to have varying points within a conversation and we've all made our opinions and point of view known. I don't think I missed \"the point\" of Brad's article, as he suggested. I just disagreed with certain aspects of it. Especially the part where his opinion is labeled as fact.\nThough I strongly disagree that words can mean whatever we want and that an athlete is comparable to a soldier \"fighting for freedom,\" I am responsible for this digression, and so will offer an attempt to bring it back to my actual point, which was that a tell-all book, even if the topic is someone so sacred as an American athlete, may actually enhance our appreciation of that person by rounding out his or her personality...and showing that he or she is human, faults and all.\nPosted: October 2nd, 2011 11:15 AM\nThose obsessed with sports figures often overstate things. \"This is a huge game\" or \"A must win\". They tend to define things like, \"The greatest play\" or \"The greatest game\". Or, \"He's heroic!\" It's fun to engross in something like athletics. I'm sort of amused by the status fans give to athletes though. They become saints, or god-like figures, often in the minds of men much older than the boys they are so enthralled by. They even wear replicas of their jerseys, and defend them to no end. Funny.\nYou're missing the point trying to define a word or measure its value. Payton was heroic on the football field, just as the single mom trying to raise 4 kids is and the American soldier fighting for freedom is. It's simply a word to be used how anyone feels fit to use it. To argue its meaning in this context misses the point of the blog entirely.\nPosted: October 1st, 2011 11:39 PM\nI liked the days when private weaknesses were unknown or overlooked. Being a hero was based on a public talent not what the person did off the field. It was not just players foibles that were overlooked. Presidents, General, Actors, and even church leaders were allowed privacy. We enjoyed our heroes without guilt or feeling duped. Payton was a hero because he was a outstanding athlete and a friendly, caring man. To me, he is still a hero. We need to lighten up on people's private lives.\nDavid, you're right, but just for the sake of being American, and human, let's preserve the word hero for those who do actual, heroic things. Lest we cheapen its meaning. And for people we look up to, well, we can admire in no shortage of other ways.\nThe word \"hero\" has multiple meanings, and JGeil I tend to go with your definition/interpretation. But there's another sense of the word that means more like \"someone we look up to,\" and I think for some Payton is that.\nUnless Walter Payton saved a life by playing football, he ain't no hero. On or off the field. Kind of sad when we toss that word around like we do these days. If you're looking for actual heroes, maybe take a break from obsessing over morally corrupt athletes and visit a website commemorating this nation's Congressional Medal of Honor award winners: http://www.cmohs.org/ Real life heroes. Walter Payton was a football player. A great athlete. But a hero? Not even close. That's a fact.\nPosted: October 1st, 2011 9:30 AM\nI'm no sports fan, so I have no allegiance to any sports \"hero\" (a term I have a little trouble applying to an entertainer), but if this book is an accurate depiction of the real man, isn't that a good thing? I'm not saying it IS an accurate depiction, I'm just considering the possibility. Payton seemed like a very nice person, but if he had other sides, as many of us do, doesn't that make him more intriguing?\nLOU SALEMI from LONGBOAT KEY, FL\nYOU AND YOUR WRITINGS (THE SO CALLED AUTHOR) WILL NOT, CAN NOT, CHANGE MY IMAGE OF A GREAT FOOTBALL PLAYER. HOPE YOUR NEW SOURCE OF REVENUE FAILS. LIKE TO BE ABLE TO LOOK INTO YOUR BACKGROUND AND SEE WHAT WE SEE. HOPE YOUR BOOK FLOPS LIKE MY MORNING PANCAKES.",

        "raw_content": "Schwarzenegger piles up contributions despite\u2026\nSchwarzenegger piles up contributions despite calls for ban\nSACRAMENTO \u2014 Despite calling for a future fundraising ban during budget season, Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger is asking donors to give as much as $250,000 to attend an exclusive dinner and reception at his Brentwood mansion with additional access through \u201cregular conference calls.\u201d\nWatchdog groups believe the price tag is a record amount for any politician and takes advantage of a Schwarzenegger fundraising group that faces no limits under state law.\nThey criticized the governor for giving special access to an elite group of donors at the same time he has asked legislators to approve a fundraising blackout that stretches for at least several weeks in the spring and summer.\n\u201cHere\u2019s a governor who proposed a ban on fundraisers during budget season, and now he\u2019s asking the highest price ever for people to come to his dinner table,\u201d said Jamie Court, president of the Foundation for Taxpayer and Consumer Rights in Santa Monica.\nAccording to an invitation obtained by the Los Angeles Times, donors can give $100,000 or $250,000 to become part of the \u201cGovernor\u2019s Executive Committee.\u201d That entitles participants to four meetings with Schwarzenegger, a June 6 dinner and an April 25 reception at his home and regular conference calls with the governor and other \u201cwell-known Californians from the public and private sectors.\u201d Those who give $250,000 have the opportunity to host the governor at their own homes.\nFor donors lighter in the wallet, the governor offers membership to his \u201cAdvisory Committee.\u201d Those who give $25,000 or $50,000 can attend the four meetings with Schwarzenegger, the reception at his house and participate in conference calls.\nCampaign spokeswoman Julie Soderlund described the calls as \u201copportunities for the governor to talk about his vision for the state.\u201d\nBob Stern, president of the Center for Governmental Studies in Los Angeles, said such calls also have been used by Presidents Clinton and Bush. But he said he was surprised, however, by the amount of money Schwarzenegger is soliciting when he cannot run again for re-election.\n\u201cIt\u2019s a non-election year,\u201d Stern said. \u201cHe shouldn\u2019t be fundraising. He\u2019s going way over the candidate limits.\u201d\nSoderlund said the governor plans to use the funds to support his efforts on the redistricting issue, in addition to improving the state\u2019s environment, health care system and prisons.\n\u201cThe California Recovery Team exists to support the governor and his agenda, and all funds raised are used to move the governor\u2019s vision forward,\u201d she said. \u201cWhen he was elected, he promised to address issues Californians care about.\u201d\nBut it remains unclear how the money will specifically address those issues. The governor previously has used the California Recovery Team to pay for his own travel, including his private plane service. He also used the account in 2005 to pay aides who worked on his special election campaign outside their state duties.\nStern said Schwarzenegger could use his latest donations to pay bonuses to state aides, as he has done in the past.\n\u201cThere\u2019s no shame anymore,\u201d Stern said. \u201cThe governor has become a politician. It\u2019s a long way from Jay Leno.\u201d\nStern was referencing the time when Schwarzenegger announced his candidacy during the 2003 recall election and said, \u201cAs you know, I don\u2019t need to take money from anyone.\u201d\nSince then, the governor has raised more than $110 million for his various campaigns.",

Western North Carolina is home to the gorgeous valleys and rain forests of the famous Blue Ridge Mountains. It\u2019s no wonder so many people flock here for the summer to beat the heat, enjoy time with their families, and take advantage of plentiful outdoor activities and world-renowned golf courses. The living is easy in the mountains, with one important exception. How do you choose where to live or vacation, among all of the great options?\nCredit: Cashiers Community Website (www.cashiersnorthcarolina.org)\nIf you prefer to be close to the amenities offered in-town or near-town \u2014 yet a short drive from mountain hikes, clear lakes and some of the best golf in the United States \u2014 the friendly, laid back towns of Western North Carolina can\u2019t be beat. Here\u2019s why Cashiers is one of our favorites.\nThe town of Cashiers, North Carolina, is located on the Highlands-Cashiers Plateau in the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Cashiers is about 63 miles west of Asheville along scenic Highway 64. At an elevation of 3,487 feet, Cashiers\u2019 unique geography and temperate rain forests produce a town surrounded by lush foliage, hundreds of waterfalls, refreshing lakes, and bold mountains.

        "raw_content": "Alexander E Berezin\nEditor's Philosophy\nThe newly launched Journal of Stem Cell and Regenerative Biology (JSRB) has taken off very well as great platform and is efficiently bringing together eminent academicians, researchers, scientists, medicos and members of the general public to discuss the many ways stem cells are being used: That is, in the labs, to basically serve the research programs aimed towards knowing the mechanistic/genetic pathways of how they work, and clinically, to develop possible treatments for patients with unmet medical needs. The field of Regenerative biology is paving way toward its major revolutionary expansion and maximum utilization in this post-genomic era, due to the availability of an amazing combo of various techniques, which indeed have presented the stem cells as valuable regenerative tools for damage repair. In recent times, the research involving human and animal stem cell preparations continues to be an extremely active area, since it is developing novel research tools, new knowledge about pathways of cell differentiation, consequently opening new vistas of cell transplantation therapy for human diseases. Stem cells directed to differentiate into specific cell types, offer immense possibility of a renewable source of replacement cells and tissues to treat diseases; including macular degeneration, spinal cord injury, stroke, burns, heart disease, diabetes, osteoarthritis, and rheumatoid arthritis, to name a few!\nEspecially, research interventions using the human stem cell preparations hold enough promise for a) increased understanding of the basic molecular process underlying cell differentiation, b) improvised perception of the early stages of genetic diseases and possibly cancer, and c) future cell transplantation therapies for various human diseases. Whether it is the beating of human heart cells growing in synchrony in a petri-dish, or the development of eye-cells in the lab, or the recent innovation of the genetically reprogrammed induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS cells), the scientists now have the essential skills, better handle and technology (Regenerative medicine) to generate human stem cell models of cardiomyopathy (heart disease) and many other diseases like diabetes, Alzheimer\u2019s, Parkinsons Disease etc in a dish. Researchers in this area also are very much aware that turning genes \u201con and off\u201d is central to this process, which renders a great handle to manipulate the \u201cblank slates-stem cells\u201d according to the need of the hour and patients in question (Tailor-made stem cells). Knowing the various potential applications of human stem cells in the generation of cells and tissues that could be used for the cell-based-therapies, there\u2019s a far more pressing reason to expand our knowledge and keep abreast with the newest updates and interventions in this area of research and therapy.\nThe Journal of Stem Cell and Regenerative Biology is working towards this great cause and we definitely strive to do better in near future!\nJournal of Stem Cell and Regenerative Biology is established with a focus to publish high quality open access, peer review articles in the field of stem cells Biology. Journal covers all aspects of stem cell biology including embryonic stem cells, adult stem cells, induced pluripotent stem cells, autologous adult stem cells, umbilical cord blood cells, bone marrow stem cell, fetal stem cells, hematopoietic stem cell, cancer stem cells, cell-based regenerative therapies, stem cell transplantation, reconstitution in vivo, regenerative medicine, translational research also the physiology, genomics, epigenetics, proteomics, metabolomics of stem cells. Ommega publishers encourage and welcome investigators to share their Original articles, Review articles, Short reports, Communications, Editorials, to bring awareness about the advancements in the stem cell related therapies so that the readers receive complete information about the topic. Ommega Publishers aims in rapid publication process, dedicated Editorial Board, minimum publication charges, leading database indexing, copyrights, quick assistance, and feasible publishing model.

        "raw_content": "Obama enrolls for health coverage, won't use it\nHONOLULU - He won't use it, and he didn't actually sign up for it himself, but President Barack Obama has enrolled for health coverage through the new insurance exchanges.\nAnnouncing his enrollment Monday, the White House called it a symbolic show of Obama's support for the fledgling exchanges where millions of Americans must buy insurance or face a penalty. Ironically, it also served as a reminder of just how complex and sometimes daunting the process can be.\nObama, like so many other Americans, couldn't use the website.\n\"The complicated nature of the president's case required an in-person sign-up,\" the White House said.\nWhite House officials noted that for security reasons, the president's personal information is not readily available in government databases that the exchanges use to verify identities and check eligibility for tax subsidies.\nBut millions of other Americans have faced website glitches that made signing up through the exchanges difficult or impossible, particularly in the initial weeks before massive fixes to the site were put in place.\nUnable to offer a camera-friendly photo-op of the president breezing through an improved HealthCare.gov, the White House quietly announced on Monday that, sometime over the weekend, aides had enrolled Obama through an in-person enrollment site while the president was vacationing in Hawaii.\n\"The president enrolled in a health care plan made available by the Affordable Care Act on the D.C. marketplace,\" White House spokesman Eric Schultz said in an email.\nAs commander in chief, the president receives his health care through the military, so his new coverage will go unused. Rather, the move fulfills a commitment to personally participate that Obama made in 2010, when he signed into law the Affordable Care Act requiring millions of uninsured Americans to buy insurance or face a penalty.\nObama selected a \"bronze\" plan, the least-expensive plan available for someone his age. The White House said the plan Obama chose will cost him less than $400 a month. The president's wife and daughters, who already have health care, did not enroll. Obama plans to keep paying the premiums at least thru the rest of his Presidency, according to the White House.\nBecause of the president's income level and the fact that his job provides health care, he won't be eligible for tax subsidies that many lower-income Americans receive to offset the premium price. The president will pay the full premium himself.\nObama's enrollment in the exchange came just before Monday's deadline for Americans to sign up for insurance and still receive coverage starting Jan. 1. But even that deadline came with a caveat, underscoring the degree to which the implementation of Obama's top legislative achievement is still a work in progress.\nAnticipating heavy website traffic by those looking to beat the deadline, the Obama administration effectively extended it by a day, giving people in 36 states a one-day grace period to select a plan.\nThe White House said a vacationing Obama received a detailed update on Sunday about preparations for that and other deadlines, and would continue to be briefed throughout his stay in Honolulu.\nBy the afternoon, the website had received a record 850,000 visits, five times the number logged by the same time last Monday, the administration said.",

        "raw_content": "Unai Emery planning new-look Arsenal defence with signing of 22-year old Centre-back\nBy Admin On July 23, 2018 In 2017-2018 Season, 2018-2019, Arsenal News & Comment, Arsenal Transfer News No Comments\nArsenal boss, Unai Emery, is still plotting a transfer move for at least one more star player this summer as he bids to get Gunners back into one of the coveted top four slots this new season.\nAccording to a report from The Daily Mail, the Gunners have shown an interest in Abdou Diallo and are set to make a move on the player before the end of the summer transfer window.\nArsenal reportedly came close to signing the powerful defender last summer, before his move from AS Monaco to Mainz. However, the Gunners have gone on to monitor his progress during the previous season to see if he\u2019s still a worthwhile purchase.\nUnai Emery is determined to get his Arsenal side back into the Champions League for the 2019/2020 season. However, this won\u2019t come easy when you consider the number of top teams currently in the Premier League, who are all jostling for a spot in the top four. However, the best football pundits and tipsters are backing Arsenal\u2019s new boss to deliver the goods for the Gunners this new season. With moves like this, this transfer seasons is offering up some very interesting changes. With all football betting systems, you need to keep abreast of the changes to make sure you how this will affect betting on Arsenal \u2013 or even betting against them. So, is Diallo good enough to make a big difference in the team\u2019s chances of a top four spot?\nDiallo has some very impressive suitors as he has wasted no time to establish himself in the German Bundesliga.\nHe has also represented France in each of their domestic levels up til the U21s and has managed to rank amongst the most highly rated players in the domestic circuit in his country.\nThis tough-tackling defender is well known for his commanding display on the pitch, his man-marking ability, and also his ability to read the game well enough to close down spaces in dangerous areas as well as his capability of finding teammates with long balls and short passes.\nThe report adds that Diallo is also being targeted by other top English sides as well as other clubs across Europe. However, with Arsenal vice-captain Laurent Koscielny out of action till December and the retirement of captain Per Mertesacker, the youngster would have enough playing time to prove himself worthy of a first team shirt under Unai Emery.",

Take good photos and send them to me.\"\nOn his way back to their home town of Pangkal Pinang for the wedding, he took the ill-fated flight, which crashed soon after taking off.\nThere is as yet no indication of what caused the crash but the plane had experienced technical problems related to airspeed and altitude readings on the previous flight.\nOne of the black box recorders from the flight has been retrieved since but authorities say it could take months to analyse the data from it.",

For example, I had a look at the database that is used for entering Work Experience forms into the computer, the program that is used to create charts and infographics (piktochart) as well as a program used to enter delegates that have attended certain events (Dynamics).\nI\u2019d like to say a big thank you to the Oxfordshire Apprenticeships staff for allowing me to be involved in so many important events and meeting many people as well as being very supportive and helpful!\nSee a summary of my week on Storify.\nDana, Year 10, The Oxford Academy",

Once I have stats and people saying they're scared, we can do this,\" he said. \"It allows us to do what we're fixing to do.\"\nStovall further elaborated on the stop-and-ID policy Friday morning, claiming the city's crime statistics alone met the threshold of reasonable suspicion required to lawfully accost a citizen.\n\"To ask you for your ID, I have to have a reason,\" he said.\n\"Well, I've got statistical reasons that say I've got a lot of crime right now, which gives me probable cause to ask what you're doing out.\nsorry http://www.paragoulddailypress.com/artic...092932.txt\nCompletly over the reset line.

Code Ann. \u00a75-71-213(a)(1) (loitering)\n(a) A person commits the offense of loitering if he or she:\n(1) Lingers, remains, or prowls in a public place or the premises of another without apparent reason and under circumstances that warrant alarm or concern for the safety of persons or property in the vicinity and, upon inquiry by a law enforcement officer, refuses to identify himself or herself and give a reasonably credible account of his or her presence and purpose;\n(2) Lingers, remains, or prowls in or near a school building, not having any reason or relationship involving custody of or responsibility for a student and not having written permission from anyone authorized to grant permission;\n(3) Lingers or remains in a public place or on the premises of another for the purpose of begging;\n(4) Lingers or remains in a public place for the purpose of unlawful gambling;\n(5) Lingers or remains in a public place for the purpose of engaging or soliciting another person to engage in prostitution or deviate sexual activity;\n(6) Lingers or remains in a public place for the purpose of unlawfully buying, distributing, or using a controlled substance;\n(7) Lingers or remains in a public place for the purpose of unlawfully buying, distributing, or consuming an alcoholic beverage;\n(8) Lingers or remains on or about the premises of another for the purpose of spying upon or invading the privacy of another; or\n(9) Lingers or remains on or about the premises of any off-site customer-bank communication terminal without any legitimate purpose.\n(b) Among the circumstances that may be considered in determining whether a person is loitering are that the person:\n(1) Takes flight upon the appearance of a law enforcement officer;\n(2) Refuses to identify himself or herself; or\n(3) Manifestly endeavors to conceal himself or herself or any object.\n\u00a9 Unless flight by the actor or another circumstance makes it impracticable, prior to an arrest for an offense under subdivision (a)(1) of this section a law enforcement officer shall afford the actor an opportunity to dispel any alarm that would otherwise be warranted by requesting the actor to identify himself or herself and explain his or her presence and conduct.\n(d) It is a defense to a prosecution under subdivision (a)(1) of this section if:\n(1) The law enforcement officer did not afford the defendant an opportunity to identify himself or herself and explain his or presence and conduct; or\n(2) It appears at trial that an explanation given by the defendant to the law enforcement officer was true and, if believed by the law enforcement officer at that time, would have dispelled the alarm.\n(e) Loitering is a Class C misdemeanor.\nThis is two programs you're referring to. One is the LiveStop program, which is controversial, the other is Stop-And-Frisk, which is EXTREMELY controversial but it was praised by Michael Bloomberg (those who have standing as liberals are extremely divided over this... the liberals who have no problem giving up their personal freedoms are contrasted with other liberals who are crying racism):\nhttp://www.nytimes.com/2012/07/12/us/sto...d=all&_r=0\nLiveStop takes any small infraction and uses it as a complete thorough investigative search, even all the way up to a PICS check. LiveStop only applies to suspects driving motor vehicles, not pedestrians. Broken tail-light on your car, too much tint on the windows, your car tires touching the lane stripes--anything of a very small nature will cause you to be detained. While being detained, a warrant scan is performed looking for any outstanding warrants.\nStop-And-Frisk takes LiveStop to a new level. Now you're searched as well as detained while being scanned. And Stop-And-Frisk applies to everyone in the public realm, not just those in vehicles.\nThe outcry has been severe in black neighborhoods especially from those who have active or previous brutality claims against the Philadelphia Police.\nHowever the program has survived court challenge thusfar.\nThe LiveStop program (not Stop And Frisk) was the subject of a very bad police stop gone wrong, with FOX29 hovering over the scene documenting a serious beat-down by Philadelphia Police against a shooting suspect and two accomplices. The officers were in search of shooters suspected of killing a Philadelphia Police Officer.\nSome armchair veterans suggest that recent incident helped fuel police rage.\nEither way, the 3 suspects who were beaten were acquitted later in court:\nhttp://hiphopwired.com/2009/07/02/philly...f-charges/\nPete Hopkins, one of the 3 suspects who was beaten... met the Fucked Fickle Finger of Fate later on... he was shot in cold blood outside a bar in West Kensington:\nhttp://mobile.philly.com/news/?wss=/phil...=150453355\n(Pete Hopkins)\nShouldn't the police be working to prevent crime?\nI like this idea, but instead. Lets arm the civilians and have them guard their own neighborhoods. That way the police can earn they pay rather than walking around town with their chests puffed out.\nNeighborhood watch. Could we check id's too?

Unless he confessed his intentions were to break the law, everything is based on speculation which is inadmissable in court. If the female driver were to be charged too, she can't even say her intentions were to thwart a robbery/shooting since that is speculation too....well, she could say that, but it's not a solid defense at all....unless she observed the male pointing \"the gun\" at the kids.\nDid she, when she saw him know he was going to commit a robbery or shoot children or did she assume he was going to? I'd like to see the legal precedent that allows someone to preemptively run someone down because they think they're going to do something bad.\nWhat if this was just a guy that was going to play airsoft with some friends? I don't believe there's a law that requires airsoft guns to have the orange blaze on them.\nBy the DA not pressing charges against her, they're setting the tone that it's ok to run down people that are carrying a gun because of something that they might be doing.

        "raw_content": "Home News Parenting News Older dads have \u2018geekier\u2019 sons\nOlder dads have \u2018geekier\u2019 sons\nNew King\u2019s College London research suggests that sons of older fathers are more intelligent, more focused on their interests and less concerned about fitting in, all characteristics typically seen in \u2018geeks\u2019.\nWhile previous research has shown that children of older fathers are at a higher risk of some adverse outcomes, including autism and schizophrenia, this new study published in Translational Psychiatry suggests that children of older fathers may also have certain advantages over their peers in educational and career settings.\nThe researchers from King\u2019s College London and The Seaver Autism Center for Research and Treatment at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai in the United States collected behavioural and cognitive data from 15,000 UK-based twin pairs in the Twins Early Development Study (TEDS).\nWhen the twins were 12 years old, they completed online tests that measured \u2018geek-like\u2019 traits, including non-verbal IQ, strong focus on the subject of interest and levels of social aloofness. Parents were also asked whether their child cares about how they are perceived by their peers and if they have any interests that take up substantial majority of their time. Using this information, the researchers computed a \u2018geek index\u2019 for every child in the study.\nOverall, higher geek index scores were reported in the sons of older fathers. This effect persisted after controlling for parent\u2019s social/economic status, qualifications and employment. In addition, they found that \u2018geekier\u2019 children do better in school exams, particularly in the STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) subjects, several years after their geek index was measured.\nDr Magdalena Janecka from King\u2019s College London and The Seaver Autism Center at Mount Sinai, said: \u2018Our study suggests that there may be some benefits associated with having an older father. We have known for a while about the negative consequences of advanced paternal age, but now we have shown that these children may also go on to have better educational and career prospects.\u2019\nAlthough the study did not directly investigate the role of environmental factors, there are a number of potential reasons why older fathers may have \u2018geekier\u2019 sons. For example, older fathers are likely to have more established careers and a higher socioeconomic status than younger fathers, meaning that their children may be brought up in more enriched environments and have access to better schooling.\nThese results also have implications for understanding links between higher paternal age, autism and characteristics typically seen in \u2018geeks\u2019. Although the researchers could not measure it directly, they hypothesise that some of the genes for geekiness and for autism are overlapping, and that those genes are more likely to be present in older fathers. Dr Janecka added: \u2018When the child is born only with some of those genes, they may be more likely to succeed in school. However, with a higher \u2018dose\u2019 of these genes, and when there are other contributing risk factors, they may end up with a higher predisposition for autism. This is supported by recent research showing that genes for autism are also linked with higher IQ.\u2019\n(Source: Kings College London, Translational Psychiatry)\nPrevious articlePerceptions about body image linked to increased alcohol, tobacco use for teens\nNext articleRoom-sharing effects on infant Sleep, SIDS prevention",

        "raw_content": "I just read in the plane a few days ago that the Rocky Mountain News, a Denver area newspaper was going to close down for good, a few months before its 150th anniversary. \"Due to evolutions in the media business, the article said...\" You bet! Everywhere in the world it's the same. I thought this shop would illustrate this downturn perfectly. I also thought to myself, \"What would Gutenberg think if he could see that more than 500 years after his fabulous invention (he is said to have invented the printing process circa 1450), the ink has now turned virtual!?\" FYI, I took this shot on rue de Savoie in the 6th arrondissement.\nTags 06th, economics\nOOO I love your door photos!! This one is especially good. I love the blue.\nThat;s a sad photo of a sad situation Eric. I know it very well of course. Newspapers closing all over.\nHaving said that, it's a wonderful photo of this poor doorway with its crumbling paint etc.\nLynn is underneath me! YAY!\nYou're right, it is worldwide. The San Franciso Chronicle (the only local newspaper here) might be for sale, too, in a couple of months.\nI think I know where you took that picture. I used to live nearby, right above a library. 20-some years later, it's become an Internet cafe. Seems appropriate ;)\nlynn March 3, 2009 at 1:12:00 AM GMT+1\nLOL Suzy. Well...I don't quite know what to say ;) .... snigger.\nChristie March 3, 2009 at 1:27:00 AM GMT+1\nI think this is the way things go sometimes. I know that I don't buy the newspaper, (not that I did before) but I read my news on the internet. I don't even watch the news on TV --mainly because of all the commercials for \"try this drug to cure one thing and don't worry about the six other side effects that come with it\". It is sad, but times do change.\nphx-cdg March 3, 2009 at 2:04:00 AM GMT+1\nI still love my New York Times delivered everyday to read with my coffee. I even buy books!!! I listened to a program on NPR that said libraries are going to be A THING OF THE PAST, AnD BOOKSELLERS ARE RECEIVING CHEAP BOOKS BEING DISCARDED BY LIBRARIES.(sorry for the caps). Ah, it was Larry McMurty who was being interviewed and said that.\n{I hope you're wearing your best French knickers under that crown, ET Suzy.}\nI love door photos, too! This is a beauty.\nThe internet is convenient and immediate but there's a certain romance I love about reading a real newspaper, book or magazine. I'm all for continuing the romance as long as possible.\nPhx: you buy books?!! Wow. That is so last century. ;)\nI'm another fan of Paris doors! These are lovely.\nAs Christie said, it's the way things go sometimes. Things change. It's not reading itself that's disappearing, it's the medium through which we get our reading material. I love books, but I wouldn't mind trying something like a Kindle - one small device can have a few hundred books on it. That saves a lot of trees.\nCarolyn March 3, 2009 at 3:02:00 AM GMT+1\nI recently found your blog via Nadege and am enjoying the Paris photos.\nThis was recently in the Economist online, about electronic books and newspapers ... thought it relevant to your post and comments.\nhttp://www.economist.com/business/displaystory.cfm?story_id=13109804\nThe daily paper here just downsized to a smaller format, more like a tabloid size. I, too, read most of my news on the internet. But I still read actual printed books (not on Kindle), and some papers and magazines. What would Guttenberg think of all this?\n\u00e0 la parisienne March 3, 2009 at 4:34:00 AM GMT+1\nI have been following your blog for several weeks and you are on my blog list. Thank you for educating us about Paris each day. I wish I had known about this blog when I was still teaching French.\nOn the subject of the downturn of printing, two of the four magazine subscriptions that I take have recently stopped publishing just in the last two months. The future of printing seems very ominous.\nAs a journalism student that I once was, I remember how our professors used to talk about the internet revolution and how it would be the end of newspapers, books and magazines.\nI know many newspapers have closed since then, but I don't believe we will ever completely stop using paper. In fact, is it just me or the amount of paper one uses at offices all over the world just keep growing and growing?\nThe Los Angeles Times, LA's only real daily paper, has drastically shrunk in size and even more so in quality.\nThere are two ways of thinking about this. One reaction is to stop buying it but there is also another theory that one shouldn't abandon a paper in its time of need. They advise buying copies of it no matter what as the alternative is to have no paper at all.\nSuzy -- you go, girl!\nGreat photo, Eric -- and disturbing subject. I work for two magazines and we talk about this all the time. So far, we're convinced that people will not be reading magazines online in the too near future (mainly because they're very visual). I admit that I do read the NY Times online most days\u2014but it's not really satisfying. As for the Kindle\u2014if I was a student, I'd sure rather carry one Kindle than a bunch of 10-pound textbooks. But I still want an actual book in my hand\u2014one with real pages I can turn. Then I want to put it on the bookshelves and let it (and all the others on the shelves) add their warmth to the room.\nNatalie March 3, 2009 at 8:32:00 AM GMT+1\nI think I'm happy that less trees are being wasted on papers that are just going to be thrown out later in the day. Now a book, that's something you can hold on to for a while. So Mr. Guterberg isn't totally out of the picture. Amazon.com has that new Kindle thing, but I just don't see it being extremely popular.\nI also love these old Parisien doorways, and I keep photographing them. I think I have hundreds of photos with doorways, windows, balconies etc. :-) There's always a story - like with this beautiful one.\nI'm a big newspaper and magazine buyer, when I can. As a journalist, you are meant to read most of the papers each day, though that's sometimes hard to do. Generally, I buy the Daily Express, The Guardian and at weekends, the Guardian, the Observer (same paper but on Sundays), The Times, The Telegraph. Sometimes I'll buy the Daily Mirror, which is a tabloid and sensationalist, but is actually well written (a journalist course I went on years ago brought this one out on top for the best writing!) and is important to read to get all views from different viewpoints and to varying targeted markets.\nMagazines I usually buy if I have written for them or am trying to get into them. I buy Tatler and Marie-Claire mostly. When I lived in a bigger place and was easier to buy foreign publications, I would always buy Paris Match.\nThe above experience cannot be equalled by reading online in my opinion, though of course in work, a lot of my news comes from the wires or other news sources online.\nWith the paper I was writing locally having recently closed, it's very close to me, this dire situation. If I had the cash, I'd start up one of my own. It would be a mix of news and features. News on its own is obviously not surviving well, regionally at least.\nI like the artistic quality of Eric's photo and also that he is showing us another instance of the persistence of the past in Paris, yet how in this case the specific persistence may have run its course to the end.\nIt is brilliant that Eric could associate this with the contemporaneous demise of the Rocky Mountain News and other print media.\nBut he has me thinking how that something else in Paris will logically come to an end and be replaced. It is only a matter of time, however long, before a PDP of the future, as yet unimagined, will have its own GA SUZY raving with enthusiasm every time she sees the successor to the Iron Lady herself.\nWe can already see hints of this elsewhere in France.\nI think that Gutenberg would approve, after all he started it all by inventing(?) the first form of mass communication.\nWell, the book and newspapers markets are quite in troubles...And this picture is sad. I don't want to read my books on a computer screen as I said before. I love paper! ;)\nMy father (he is publisher) told me that when the results of the sales were not negative, they could consider themselves as lucky...that's terrible.\nSPECIAL MESSAGE TO Jeff, PHX CDG, Petrea, Tall Gary, Carrie and Maria: I received a wonderful postcard yesterday from LAX with kind words from you all. Thanks a million, I'm really touched... I love this PDP thing. A special bond, as PHX said to me :)\nSo Eric, how is it down under?!\nGuille, so glad you got the card! La reine is always in our thoughts.\nYeah I agree, I want my newspapers and magazines in paper too. It's the only right way. I never read the news online and I could NEVER read a book on a screen either.\nI love paper and stationeries.\nAlors, Eric -- Ou tu es en ce moment??\nHuey P. Long March 3, 2009 at 8:30:00 PM GMT+1\nHi Eric! I am sitting here with Haley and she is admiring your photos and so impressed with the amount of bloggers. Gorgeous photo . . . hope you are having fun in KiwiLand.\nI love my books.\nThe photo makes me think tho,that history repeats itself.\nMr. Gutenberg's invention was the internet of its day and the beginning of the end of oral histories passed from generation to generation.\nThough greatly diminished,oral history didn't end completely, but was rebalanced with the written word, as, I suspect, books will be with the internet.\nLois Simon March 3, 2009 at 10:08:00 PM GMT+1\nBeautiful photo. Reminds me of the book \"Lost Illusions\".\nParis-Insider March 3, 2009 at 10:53:00 PM GMT+1\nIt is such a shame that all these newspapers and magazines are shutting down as online reading booms. Gutenberg would indeed be disappointed. Or perhaps he would applaud the advances in technology. It seems like more and more people are going online to find information on Paris or just about anything else before they check out a newspaper or library.\nBeautiful picture, regardless!\nphx-cdg March 3, 2009 at 11:58:00 PM GMT+1\nvery interesting thought, Carrie, AS USUAL!\nI think that perhaps Drummond has a point. We are here right now because we're reading on line, non?\nOne thing the British love is a newspaper but even here there is a downturn in sales. It is so sad that the physical has been replaced by the virtual byr Drummond has made a valid point, we are still reading and communicating. So long as they never replace photographers!\n*SparkleMirror* Kiln-Fired Art March 6, 2009 at 6:43:00 PM GMT+1",

        "raw_content": ">Media Center>News Room>LA County Goes Where the State Legislature Could Not\nNot three months after the State Senate failed to pass AB 1998 (Brownley), one of this year\u2019s top environmental bills which sought to ban single use plastic bags, the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors voted 3-1 to put in place their own plastic bag ban. The ordinance, passed on Tuesday, affects grocery stores and pharmacies in the unincorporated areas of the county, and includes a 10 cent surcharge on paper bags.\nBy July of next year, 67 large supermarkets and pharmacies must stop providing disposable plastic bags, and by January 2012 the ban will cover 1,000 stores and 1.1 million people county-wide. Each year, Los Angeles County residents use 6 billion plastic bags which equates to 1,600 bags per household every year.\nPlastic bags are a leading cause of both urban and ocean pollution, threatening ocean wildlife and clogging the state\u2019s landfills. Plastic bags are a key ingredient of the Great Northwest Garbage Patch in the Pacific Ocean, which is a swirling mass of garbage twice the size of Texas and growing, filled with plastic debris that is ingested by birds and other wildlife.\nEnvironmental and public health advocates, along with the California Grocers Association, supported AB 1998, believing a statewide solution was better for businesses and consumers than a county-by-county or city-by-city approach. However, under intense lobbying from the American Chemistry Council and the manufactures of plastic bags, the Senate failed to pass the measure. During the debate leading up to the senate vote, LA County made clear that they were ready to take on the issue if State Legislature failed to do so. Other jurisdictions across the state are now lining up to ban single use bags, hopefully sending a strong message to legislators to reject the plastic industry\u2019s efforts to sell convenience at the price of pollution.\nTagged AB 1998, Brownley, California, LA bans plastic bags, Legislature, paper bag fee, Plastic Bag Ban, Plastic bags",

        "raw_content": "History, Religion and Art: The Cathedral of Cusco\nIt was built between 1560 and 1664 on Quishuarqancha, the ancient palace of the Inca Viracocha. the Cathedral of Cusco, built with huge stone blocks brought from Sacsayhuaman, is one of the most beautiful and important monuments of the Americas; this historical construction is also considered Nation\u2019s Cultural Heritage and has a combination of unique features such as Gothic, Baroque and Renaissance style.\nWhen the Spaniards arrived in the city, they requested the creation of the Cusco Bishopric in charge of the Friar Vicente de Valverde. For this reason, they began building churches in the city. However, the construction of the cathedral took more than 100 years due to the sites, chosen for construction. First, it was erected where the Iglesia del Triunfo (Church of Triumph) is located now, then it was erected on Cusipata area because of its size, and finally the land of Quishuarqancha was acquired in 1553 where it is today.\nThe building has the shape of a Latin cross with a fa\u00e7ade and interior of Renaissance style. Inside, you can find the best colonial goldsmith and a valuable collection of paintings from the Cusco School. Due to the period when it was built, it was erected in the Gothic-Renaissance style of the great Spanish cathedrals, adding the Baroque style represented in its great front altarpiece and monumental towers\nArchitecture of the Cathedral of Cusco\nThe basilica Cathedral of Cusco has a rectangular shape and three sides: Epistle side, Gospel side and Central side matching the three entrances. It also has 15 pillars in the shape of crosses which define the layout of the 24 entrance vault and crossing.\nThe High Altar is entirely made of silver; the Sacristy consists of forty paintings of Bishops and Archbishops of Cusco. Next to the Cathedral, there are two auxiliary chapels: the Iglesia del Triunfo on the right side and Sagrada Familia on the left side.\nLearn more about the churches around the Cathedral\n\u2013 Jes\u00fas, Mar\u00eda y Jos\u00e9 (Temple of Jesus, Mary, and Joseph): It is a small temple which construction began in 1723, and finished within 1733-1735. It has images of the Holy Family on the main fa\u00e7ade and its high altar has a Baroque style which is depicted in altarpieces and paintings. It was finally completed in 1737.\n\u2013 El Triunfo (Church of Triumph): It was named as a memorial of the final victory of the Spaniards against the troops of Manco Inca as it is believed that the Spanish troops were supported by the Virgin and the apostle James, during the time of the conquest. It was built in 1729 \u2013 1733, and inside there is a high altar made of finely carved stone and the \u201cCross of Conquest\u201d, where the ashes of Inca Garcilaso de la Vega lie.\nSources: Cusco Per\u00fa, Mincetur, Cr\u00f3nicas de Per\u00fa.",

The ability to automate not only the collection of, but also, the analysis of the massive amounts of information processed on a daily basis, allows organisations to make business decisions based on facts, rather than antiquated processes or unreliable intuition and gut instincts.\nThe pay-off of business intelligence (BI) and the optimised decision-making that Big Data can empower has real impact. Companies such as AT&T and American Express have made big bets on the promise of Big Data. For example, AT&T has opened a Big Data Center of Excellence in Plano, Texas to improve internal and external operations. American Express on the other hand, is using Big Data in the areas of service excellence, billings and risk management.\nWith documented use cases for Big Data and analytics among mainstream corporations, the question now becomes: Is it time for ocean shipping and/or the broader global supply chain to consider these types of solutions for their own operations? The answer is yes...\nThe Bulk Issue Automation and Optimisation, Terminal Logistics\nThe Bulk Issue\nEdition 71 is a special edition which features Technical Papers on the bulk sector, as well as the technological trends currently taking place within port and terminal automation, and supersized container shipping.

This game is actively played by many countries throughout the world and has many passionate fans throughout the world. There are many soccer leagues, which take place in different parts of the world. Europa League, one the popular football leagues, featured in various newspapers and sports magazines for many reasons. In one of the league matches, Borussia Dortmund won the Azerbaijani club Qabala by 3-1 in Baku. But the gripping news is that some safety concerns made one of the Dortmund players to miss the game.\nIt is said that Henrikh Mkhitaryan missed the game as feared that he would be arrested by government authorities by the Azerbaijan \u2013 the country where that particular game was conducted. Henrikh Mkhitaryan is a member of the national football team of Armenia, which wages war with Azerbaijan. Due to these political issues, the player thought that he would face any kind of problem during his visit to the country.\nMost importantly, it has to be noted that the player took this decision of staying at the home, even after getting safety assurance from the Azerbaijan\u2019s foreign ministry and support from UEFA. Henrikh Mkhitaryan said that he did not want to take any sort of risk. The fact is that on many occasions in the past, national and local politics of the country have dictated the participation of players and athletes in various events. In the previous year, UEFA has worked hard to separate the Ukrainian and Russian clubs from the club matches, when there was a rivalry between the two nations.\nIn another incident, a player called Adnan Januzaj received death threats after he announced that he would play for Belgium rather than Serbia or Kosova. Various news reports said that Januzaj was severely cautioned not to enter Balkan territory again. Mkhitaryan, though stayed at home, was watching the game thoroughly and supported his team. He also posted his support message on the Twitter. There was a fans-bullying incident happened in the league match, which forced UEFA to take strict disciplinary actions against the concerned players.\nThough sports regulatory authority has taken severe measures to curb the politics in the soccer games, they never seem to be any decrease in the untoward incident.",

It is filled with little oases of calm in among the clamour, giving travellers time to relax and contemplate the true beauty of the surrounding landscapes.\nTravel to Marrakech and experience the vibrancy of this exotic city, with its labyrinthine souqs and rich culinary scene. You will also find that upmarket hotels and shopping malls are starting to flourish in Marrakech.\nBook a flight to Marrakech with Qatar Airways to discover an innovative city that has one eye firmly on the future, with a growing base of high-tech companies and entrepreneurial start-ups. This makes Marrakech an interesting destination for business travellers as well as those in search of a magical adventure.\nMarrakech highlights\nIt\u2019s time to put on your haggling hat and dive into the lively souqs of vivacious Marrakech.\nThe most obvious attraction during any trip to Marrakech has to be the souq experience. Avoid the usual tourist traps and head to the smaller, more authentic souqs, where you\u2019ll find good quality leather goods, jewellery and locally made crafts. You\u2019d be surprised how remarkably friendly sellers are in these traditional markets. They are far less aggressive than elsewhere, but be prepared to haggle.\nFor a change of pace and a little peace and quiet, head to the \u2018green lung\u2019 of the city, La Palmeraie. Situated on the outskirts of Marrakech, this is an area that covers more than 13,000 hectares and is planted with a staggering 150,000 palm trees. Take a camel ride along the shaded paths for a truly relaxing and authentic Moroccan experience.\nThe evening\u2019s entertainment is usually focused around Djemaa El-Fna the city\u2019s main square. Here you can watch dancers and entertainers put on a show, and listen to storytellers weave ancient tales. During the day, the square is also a hive of activity, hosting snake charmers and street vendors.\nVisit Dar Si Sa\u00efd Museum, on Rue Riad Zitoun Jdid, to get a better understanding of the culture and history of Morocco. The museum is set in an old palace and its collections include fabulous examples of Moroccan wood carving and leatherwork.\nShopping is big in Marrakech, and a visit to the old medina with its winding alleyways and interlinked souqs is a must. You can also explore the spiritual side of Morocco with a trip to The Ben Youssef Medersa, a Quranic school dedicated to the teaching of Islamic scripture and law. This fascinating school was founded in the 14th century and is still an important centre of learning today.\nIf you travel to Marrakech, then forgo the usual tourist coach tours and take a Cal\u00e8che ride - a great way to explore the city from the back of a horse-drawn carriage. Make sure you settle a price with the driver before you start your ride.\nThere are plenty of opportunities for adventure tours beyond the city\u2019s ancient walls, and you can choose from air-conditioned 4x4 dune drives, to a more authentic camel trek through the desert. If you\u2019re feeling beach-bound, head for Agadir, which is a two-hour ride from the city centre, but well worth the trip. The beach offers plenty of water sports and some cool relief from the urban heat.\nThe iconic Moroccan dish has to be tajine, a colourful and flavourful combination of meat and vegetables slow cooked with a characteristic blend of herbs and spices. It is usually served with couscous, and forms the basis of most main meals.\nWhile most of the main meat dishes consist of lamb or chicken, vegetarians will also find a wealth of options in Moroccan cooking. Meals are washed down with the one drink that Morocco is famous for \u2013 orange juice.\nMoroccan oranges are some of the sweetest and juiciest in the world, and across the city you\u2019ll find plenty of cart vendors selling freshly squeezed juice. The other main beverage is mint tea, which is delightfully refreshi /content/dam/images/renditions/horizontal-3/destinations/morocco/marrakesh/h3-marrakesh-shopping-primary.jpg ng on a hot day.\nEvery trip to Marrakech should include several visits to the various souqs. Head to the old medina for the best experience, and look out for wooden carvings and particularly fine leatherwork in some of the more reputable souqs.\nJewellery is also plentiful, with elaborately worked gold fetching the highest prices. For more contemporary shopping, head to souq Cherifa, which is home to a more eclectic mix of local and international designers.\nEssential facts about Marrakech",

        "raw_content": "Gays, Lesbians, and Bisexuals Are Coming out Earlier in Life\nBy McKay, Alexander | The Canadian Journal of Human Sexuality, Spring 2006 | Go to article overview\nMcKay, Alexander, The Canadian Journal of Human Sexuality\n\"Coming out\" is commonly defined as the process in which gay, lesbian, and bisexual individuals recognize and adopt their sexual identity as well as disclose their sexual orientation to others. Studies conducted in the 1970s and 1980s suggested that in Western culture awareness of sexual desire for same sex individuals occurred at an average age of 13 for males and between 14 and 16 for females. Studies done in the same period found an average age of sexual debut with a member of the same sex of 15 for males and 20 for females. However, since the 1980s, there has been relatively little research investigating these and other aspects of the coming out process.\nGrov, Bimbi, Nanin, and Parsons (2006) investigated various factors impacting upon the coming out process by surveying men and women attending gay/lesbian/ bisexual (GLB) community events in New York and Los Angeles. With respect to age, Grov et al. hypothesized that,\nWith increased visibility of the GLB community\nas a result of gay liberation movements and the\nemergence of HIV in the early 1980s, it is\npossible that the ages people experience\nmilestones such as coming out to oneself,\ncoming out to others, and same-gender sexual\ndebut (i.e., first sexual behavior with someone\nof the same gender) have changed (p. 115).\nIn addition, the authors examined the role played by race and ethnicity in affecting the timing of the coming out process.\nGrov et al. (2006) used a cross-sectional street-intercept method to administer the \"Sex and Love Survey, Version 2.0\" to 2,733 participants at GLB community events between the fall of 2003 and the spring of 2004. In addition to the collection of demographic data, participants were asked to indicate the age they admitted to themselves they were GLB, the age at which they first told another person, the age they had sex with a same gender partner, and if their parents (or persons who raised them) were aware of their sexual activity with same gendered partners.\nOn average, males came out to themselves at a significantly younger age than females (17.5 versus 19.6) and males were also significantly younger on average than females when having their first same gender sexual experience (17.9 versus 19.8). However, Grov et al. (2006) report that there were no significant differences in the ages males and females came out to others or whether they had come out to parents. For example, among those aged 18 to 24, 75. \u2026\nPublication information: Article title: Gays, Lesbians, and Bisexuals Are Coming out Earlier in Life. Contributors: McKay, Alexander - Author.

The Habsburg-era building is located in Hviezdoslavovo Square, in the centre of the city, directly facing the Radisson Blu Carlton Hotel. The Bratislava Opera House hosts a programme of ballet and opera performances throughout the year.\nFirst opened in 1886, the Opera House in Bratislava was built in the Neo-Renaissance style and designed by the theatre architecture company, Fellner and Helmer of Vienna. The building was originally a municipal theatre for performances of German and Hungarian opera. After the Czechoslovakian Republic was formed in 1918, performances in the Czech and Slovak languages were added. Today, most operas are sung in their original language with subtitles for Slovakians.\nMore about the Bratislava Opera House\nA new Bratislava Opera House was built in 2007 and is only a short walk from the old theatre. Tickets for performances at both opera buildings can be purchased in advance from the Slovak Theatre Central Box Offices. It should also be noted that opera performances at the Bratislava Opera House are subtitled in Slovakian or German, so English-speaking audiences are advised to learn the plots in advance.\nExperience culture at the Radisson Blu Carlton Bratislava\nThe Bratislava Opera House is only a 100 metres walk from the Radisson Blu Carlton Hotel, situated near the banks of the river Danube, making it a perfect location for opera lovers. From here you can enjoy a show at the opera, explore the Old Town, take a river cruise on the Danube or take in one of the festivals that occur from July through to December.",

Zn(2+) enhances TTR aggregation in vitro, and is a component of ex vivo TTR amyloid fibrils. We report the first crystal structure of human TTR in complex with Zn(2+) at pH 4.6-7.5. All four structures reveal three tetra-coordinated Zn(2+)-binding sites (ZBS 1-3) per monomer, plus a fourth site (ZBS 4) involving amino acid residues from a symmetry-related tetramer that is not visible in solution by NMR. Zn(2+) binding perturbs loop E-\u03b1-helix-loop F, the region involved in holo-retinol-binding protein (holo-RBP) recognition, mainly at acidic pH; TTR affinity for holo-RBP decreases \u223c5-fold in the presence of Zn(2+). Interestingly, this same region is disrupted in the crystal structure of the amyloidogenic intermediate of TTR formed at acidic pH in the absence of Zn(2+). HNCO and HNCA experiments performed in solution at pH 7.5 revealed that upon Zn(2+) binding, although the \u03b1-helix persists, there are perturbations in the resonances of the residues that flank this region, suggesting an increase in structural flexibility. While stability of the monomer of TTR decreases in the presence of Zn(2+), which is consistent with the tertiary structural perturbation provoked by Zn(2+) binding, tetramer stability is only marginally affected by Zn(2+). These data highlight structural and functional roles of Zn(2+) in TTR-related amyloidoses, as well as in holo-RBP recognition and vitamin A homeostasis.\nInstituto de Bioquimica Medica, Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro, Rio de Janeiro 21941-590, Brazil.",

        "raw_content": "We reached out to our favourite authors and artists to tell us the nicest place they have known\u2014a city, town, village or spot, anywhere in the world. Here are four\nAnita Nair loves being at Dedhgrahat, Himachal Pradesh\nSix hours from Delhi is a little mud road at Dedhgrahat, near Kandaghat town in Himachal Pradesh. Down this road is Long View, my friend Aarushi\u2019s home and my go-to place when I need a holiday from myself. Long View, with its trees and dogs, spectacular views and slow internet, is what I dream of on particularly stressful days.\nOur days here begin late and end late. The cold has a way of seeping into the bones so you need a fire lit every night and an electric blanket to snuggle into. A place where you breakfast at noon and dine at midnight.\nBut what makes Long View the nicest place in the world for me is the mountain near Parotha. We would walk along the highway and from the side of the road begin the climb. There is no real path except what is used by the Gurjars [nomadic pastoral communities in northern India] as they take their cattle grazing, and sometimes mules, to bring down firewood. Each time as I take that first long step up the thickly wooded mountainside, I tell myself that I will not think of the degree of difficulty.\nAs a mountaineer, I am a walking disaster: I have a dead left leg from a herniated disc; my poor vision has completely destroyed my spatial awareness. But what I do have is an absence of fear and Aarushi alongside. She climbs as though she were going up a gently curving staircase. Every time I need help, she offers a hand. And then there are the dogs Ranga and Jimmi, who wait for me every time I falter.\nLong View is at 4,500 feet. The first viewpoint is at 5,100 feet. It is all pine trees and from there the deodars begin. I like to sit on the lip of a cliff with the dogs and gaze at the road far below. A four-lane highway is being carved in the mountainsides and the slopes are turning raw and denuded in the name of progress. But at this height, everything seems distant and removed.\nOnce atop, I lie down on the grass with my head down the slope so I am almost upside down ... Bird sounds, blue skies and the tops of trees dancing in the stiff wind \u2026 and within me a peace. Nothing can ever measure up to this moment of self-awareness.\nAs the sun begins to set and darkness falls with long shadows, I stand up reluctantly. A fire, tea, hot samosas and jalebis await us at Long View. But first we have to get there.\nThere is a way to climbing down a mountain path. A bending of the knees so the centre of gravity is closer to the ground and a sideways placement of feet so you have better grip and control over the momentum that can send you hurtling down. If the climb up is exciting, the climb down is exhilarating, and exactly the kind of adrenaline fix I need to rouse myself from the dreamland that the mountain cold and the stillness had lulled me into.\nThere are other mountain paths I have climbed. In fact, climbs that are probably steeper and higher. But nothing gives me the satisfaction of the mountain at Parotha or the joyful calm of Long View.\nAnita Nair is the author of several best-selling and critically acclaimed novels. Her latest novel is Eating Wasps. She is also an intrepid and mostly solitary traveller.\nSarnath Banerjee walks in Panchsheel Park, Delhi\nThere is no one nice place for me but let me tell you about one route in Delhi that I like to take walks on. It begins at Panchsheel Enclave, where I used to live, in the sleepy part of the neighbourhood, which is at a distance from the market. It\u2019s a transparent place, in the sense that you can see people go about their lives in their balconies and verandas. I would walk to Panchsheel Park, full of dark corners. You can get lost there if you are unaccompanied.\nThe forest has its set of eccentrics. There\u2019s a man who walks as if his being was made of breeze\u2014when he walks his entire body shakes, his arms flail about and he walks really fast. I\u2019ve been seeing him for 15 years now; he used to be a fat man at one point of time. There are other regulars. We recognize each other but never interact.\nI then walk through the ruins of Siri Fort. They\u2019re unknown and well maintained. There\u2019s a makeshift cemetery there, too. Crossing all this, I reach Shahpur Jat village, where several of my friends have their studios. During my walks, I\u2019ve come to the conclusion that you could make and launch a rocket in its entirety with all the material and technology available in Shahpur Jat. From creating an engine to its fuel, to silk-screening the rocket\u2019s name on it, all of it can be done using only the village\u2019s resources.\nAll this walking is not aimless, though. I generally devise my walks around food. So my first stop is the chai stall next to the SBI ATM in Shahpur Jat. I always order an omelette with sweet bun and a chai there.\nI then walk to Gulmohar Park. There\u2019s a club in the neighbourhood with basketball courts. If there are kids playing, I join them. From there, it\u2019s Neeti Bagh, Yusuf Sarai and then to the Uphaar Cinema complex. The cinema theatre burnt down in 1997. Nothing much happens there but people can be seen hanging about. The scene looks like actors rehearsing for a play that will probably never materialize.\nThen I go to Green Park market, where I take my second snack break at Evergreen Sweet House\u2014half a plate of chhole bhature and jalebi. I then wander into the ruins of the Deer Park, which I suspect is turning more into a sand park than the grass park it used to be. For some reason, I get my most interesting ideas here, especially by the lake. Once I\u2019ve reached Safdarjung Development Area market, I have another cup of tea and take an autorickshaw back home.\nThough I make food the main purpose of my walks, bumping into friends is a bonus. Some of my oldest friends live along this route and, fortunately, the informality of the housing colonies of south Delhi allows me to pop into their homes whenever I feel like it. I dread the high-rises of Gurgaon, where you need appointments and permissions to meet people.\nDelhi used to be a great city to walk around in, but now, because of the severe pollution I have to put \u2018face knickers\u2019 on. It doesn\u2019t deter me, though; I walk all the time, whether it\u2019s summer or winter. I fight so many of my inner battles while walking, especially in Panchsheel Park. Although I generally walk alone because I seem to lose friends due to my brisk walking, sometimes I am accompanied by friends. And sometimes, by the end of the walk we\u2019ve resolved things and found each other again, differently.\n\u2014As told to Blessy Augustine\nSarnath Banerjee is a graphic novelist and co-founder of the comic publishing company Phantomville. He now lives in Berlin, Germany. When he visits Delhi, he stays in Chittaranjan Park.\nSumana Roy fondly remembers Nathuahat, West Bengal\nThe nicest places are abstractions, like the word \u2018nice\u2019 itself. So it prompts us to remember places we know only as abstractions\u2014the mother\u2019s womb, where we did not need to go to office, or clean up after eating; the heart of the one we love, where we want to be kept\u2014the only place where we are happy to be alone; a memory where life\u2019s coarseness has been smoothened by time, to which we long to return as if it were water, capable of entering us and washing over us, cleaning inside and outside. I think it is a mixture of these that come together as expectation when we think of what \u2018the nicest place\u2019 might be.\nI hesitate to write of the year which houses my memory of the place I have in mind. 1984. I am still innocent. I am 10. I don\u2019t know Orwell; I don\u2019t know Operation Bluestar. My father is the RDO in a village in northern Bengal. The three of us\u2014my mother, brother and I\u2014sit on a bus that takes us to Gairkata, through Jalpaiguri city, Dhupguri, through places whose names seem infinitely more interesting than those in my Frank School Atlas, but whose names I know I will forget before I meet my father. I\u2019m too young to know that it is the destiny of certain places and people to be forgotten. I can sense intuitively that my memory will store these places but not their names, just as it\u2019ll remember the names of places from my school atlas but forget their history and geography. My brother and I are excited to see our father turn into a radio\u2014that is how we hear \u2018RDO\u2019. It\u2019s a disappointment for us, therefore, when we reach the village to discover that he is his bank\u2019s rural development officer.\nThe name of the village is Nathuahat. We stay in my father\u2019s rented single-room house. It is a house only in shape. My brother and I are happy\u2014it is the first time we will stay in a house that resembles the houses we\u2019ve so long sketched in our drawing books. Everything else is outside the house: the kitchen and bathroom, eating and talking. Behind it are bamboo groves where ghosts live. We avoid running into them by not drinking water after sundown. We swallow spit after dinner.\nThere is no electricity though there are bulbs and electric wiring. These are adornments, a doll\u2019s-house mimicry of civilization. We eat by the light of kerosene lamps, \u2018dimlight\u2019 and \u2018hurricane\u2019. Our shadows swallow more things than our mouths, including flies on walls. Nripen-kaku (uncle), who counts currency notes in the bank, takes us fishing in ponds. We return with hen and duck eggs, gifts from villagers who treat us with the kindness reserved for harmless aliens in science fiction. My mother cooks everything with kalo jeera (black cumin seed) and green chillies\u2014the best food she will cook in her life.\nAnd then a month passes, as if it were a seasonal plant.\nI think of Nathuahat often. It is where dew fell on my head for the first time.\nSumana Roy has authored How I Became a Tree. Her latest is a work of fiction, Missing: A Novel. She lives in Siliguri, West Bengal.\nShafqat Amanat Ali, memories of Rome, Italy\nI fell in love with the first European country I visited along the Mediterranean coast almost 25 years ago: Italy, with its resplendent architecture, syncretic cuisine and age-old heritage. I was there for a music festival, where I participated with Ustad Fateh Ali Khan sahib and got to meet other musicians from all over the world. I was excited about it being my first international trip and everything that I was experiencing and seeing for the first time or learning about travelling outside the borders of my country. But I also had the pressure of performing with Khan sahib on my first international stage, which made me nervous. Khan sahib left after the concert, but I decided to stay back and that\u2019s when I actually started relaxing and looking forward to my vacation.\nThe Italians are extremely warm and welcoming, just like their city. A friend I had made during the festival, who lived in Rome, offered to share his room, which gave me a chance to live like a local and explore the city in a way unlike a tourist. We covered the city on foot, using public transport only when our legs gave way. When you travel as a musician, you don\u2019t really get to experience the life and soul of a city because you have a sightseeing itinerary planned with a robotically programmed guide. But travelling with my friend helped me discover the real Rome and its true spirit. There was something new to see and marvel at every day. I also experienced the hospitality of the Italians, which was very much like what we are used to back home in Pakistan. The room I stayed in was being shared by five other boys. Despite the fact that they were clearly cramped, they were generous enough to give me space and made sure I was comfortable. All the boys were working as helpers or support staff in different jobs. This culture of earning a living and staying in shared quarters was new to me and opened me up to a range of possibilities.\nIf you love art the way I do, you will love Rome. Every nook and corner has a masterpiece\u2014sculptures and paintings adorn buildings, statuesque installations of creatures on rooftops with their feet dangling down the length of the facade. I was mesmerized. I hadn\u2019t seen anything like this in my life. The amazing craftsmanship made it lifelike. This is a city steeped in history. Breathtaking monuments and edifices stand on almost every crossroad and roundabout; the modern-day city is wrapped in ancient history. The Colosseum is out of this world: Standing in its premises is like getting a glimpse into ancient Italy. It feels like a film playing in front of your eyes.\nI threw a lira in the Trevi fountain. It is believed that if you throw a coin into this fountain and it\u2019s found, you come back to Italy. It\u2019s true: I did, and I look forward to going back and being spellbound again in the city of my dreams. I feel like I am connected to this place in a way that I am unable to explain.\n\u2014As told to Mannu Kohli\nShafqat Amanat Ali is a Pakistani classical singer from the Patiala gharana. He was the lead vocalist in the rock band Fuzon.",

        "raw_content": "Today\u2019s 63.7% US homeownership rate* (down from 69.1% 12 years ago) is propped up by a very high homeownership rate for those aged 65+ who bought their homes many years ago. They benefited from a strong economy, more affordable housing during their working years (even adjusting for mortgage rates and inflation), and 100% down payment programs for veterans.\nNot surprisingly, the percentage of households who own their home rises as incomes rise, as shown in the chart below. For those executives who have to forecast housing demand, and homeownership demand in particular, note that the median-income household (after taking out retirees) makes about $64,000 per year, and only 58% of those households own a home. This will drive homeownership down over time.\nLow incomes are just one of many reasons why we forecast homeownership to fall below 61% by 2025. The 80%+/- homeownership rate of those who pass away over the next eight years will be the biggest drag on homeownership. As we note in our book, the Four Big Influencers (government policies, the economy, new technologies, and shifts in societal preferences) could impact this forecast positively or negatively. We monitor all four influencers very carefully to help executives plan their business decisions.\n*Homeownership rates as reported by the U.S. Census Bureau\u2019s Housing Vacancies and Homeownership Survey. We do not believe that the recent rise in the homeownership rate is correct, as it was driven partially by the Census Bureau reporting an increase of only 558,000 occupied housing units in the last year, which is far too low.",

        "raw_content": "RealGamblingSites\nOnline Gambling Site Ratings and Reviews\nWelcome to Real Gambling Sites: A Leading Guide to Online Gambling for Real Money\nSo you\u2019re interested in learning how to gamble for real money online, but don\u2019t know where to start. Maybe you\u2019re not sure if you can safely gamble with real money from your area, or if gambling online for money is even legal. Perhaps you wonder how secure Internet gambling really is, or if all online gambling sites are rigged.\nOnline casinos and gambling sites have a poor reputation in many circles. Does online gambling deserve this reputation? If you search for online casino scams you can find thousands of results. Should you be scared of possible scams when you want to play your favorite casino games or poker or place a bet on a sporting event? That\u2019s what this page is designed to answer.\nWe\u2019ll walk you step-by-step through the process of gambling online for real money for the first time. You\u2019ll learn \u2013\nHow to find trustworthy gambling sites that are not only secure but also have a good reputation for taking care of players. That way, you can focus on having fun and winning money, instead of worrying about becoming a victim.\nHow to sign-up and verify your online casino or betting site account\nHow to safely deposit funds and withdraw winnings from your gambling account\nBest Real Money Gambling Sites 2018\nAre real money casinos legit, safe, and legal? Can you really win money, and if so, how do you deposit and withdraw money? We get it \u2013 because we had the same questions when we started gambling online for real money over 15 years ago. That\u2019s what led our team of gambling and casino experts to create RealGamblingSites.com. We decided to build the online gambling guide that we wished we would have had when we started researching how to gamble online.\nAfter nearly two decades of playing at various real money casinos, poker sites, and sportsbooks we\u2019ve come to learn one important fact \u2013 it\u2019s hard (if not impossible) for a new online player to feel confident and secure when selecting an online casino or betting site, unless they\u2019ve put in hours of research ahead of time. The longer you\u2019re in iGaming industry, the easier it is to spot untrustworthy online gambling operators and scams.\nBelow you\u2019ll find the best ranked (overall) online gambling sites that have real money casinos games, sports betting, and poker.\nA Note on Accepting Online Casino Bonus Offers & Promotions\nA lot of real money gambling sites will offer you bonuses for playing with them. It is important that you read the rules of the bonus before deciding to place money in a bank with them. For example, one site I played with offered a 400% bonus. When you deposit $100, they make it $500 to play. But to cash out (cash out restrictions) there are rules (called playthrough requirements) requiring your to bet a certain amount before withdrawing. Bonuses are terrific though if you are new to real money gambling because it gives you time to explore the online site, testing out different games and extending your play time. Just remember, most bonuses are geared towards the online casino site \u2013 the longer they keep you playing the better their chances of winning.\nBest (and Worst) Ways to Gamble Online\nThere are many ways to gamble online, and the differences between them can be extreme. Whether you\u2019re interested in gambling for entertainment or profit, this guide will help you deposit your money with the right provider.\nOnline Casino Games | Return-to-player score: 4/10\nOnline casinos give you access to the same games that you can find in most land-based gambling establishments. These include slots, blackjack, roulette, video poker, and keno, to name a few. The outcome of each game is generated instantly by means of a certified random numbers generators (RNG), which means that internet-casino games are more fast-paced than their traditional counterparts. Some platforms also offer live dealer games, which are played using traditional casino equipment and real croupiers.\nDifferent casino games come with different rules, so players must follow different strategies in order to maximize their odds of winning. What almost all games have in common is their negative expected value. Whether you\u2019re playing roulette or slots, the house always has an edge. This edge can range from above 20% to less than 1%, so picking the right game is important. Regardless of your choice, you will always lose your entire bankroll if you play long enough.\nConsequently, casino games should always be treated as pure entertainment and cannot be played professionally. You can win money if you get lucky and exploit the variance, but every casino player is guaranteed to lose in the long run.\nSee our Online Casino Games Guide for recommended sites to play real money casino games and tips for picking profitable casino games.\nOnline Sports Betting | Return-to-player score: 8/10\nSports betting is offered by specialized online sportsbooks. Some of them offer other forms of gambling under the same brand, but the sports betting section is always separate from the other games. Available bets range from simple money lines or over/under bets, through parlay bets that require you to predict the results of more than one sporting event, to futures. Online sportsbooks offer more options than their land-based counterparts and take less juice due to lower operating costs, so using them is always preferable as long as it\u2019s legal to do so in your jurisdiction.\nThe odds offered by online sportsbooks don\u2019t reflect their experts\u2019 real predictions, however, that doesn\u2019t mean it\u2019s impossible to become a winning bettor. In fact, there are people who turned sports betting into a successful career, but doing so requires a lot of hard work and success is by no means guaranteed.\nSee our Sports Betting Guide for recommended sportsbooks and tips to help you win real money betting sports online.\nOnline Poker | Return-to-player score: 10/10\nOnline poker isn\u2019t as popular as it was in the first years following Chris Moneymaker\u2019s legendary 2003 WSOP win, but it\u2019s still one of the largest iGaming markets around. PokerStars, the most popular network in the world, gives you access to every imaginable variant of the game. It also hosts weekly tournaments with millions of dollars in guaranteed prize pools. Smaller platforms, such as 888 or PartyPoker, aren\u2019t capable of replicating this experience due to lower traffic, but the competition is generally softer there.\nThis is even more true for real money sites that are forced to operate on fenced national markets due to strict iGaming regulations, as their player pools tend to be so small that they\u2019re essentially forced to stick to No-Limit Hold\u2019em.\nCompetitive poker is a game of skill, so becoming a consistently winning player is a matter of learning the game and playing enough hands or tournaments.\nIt also requires mental toughness and an adequate mindset. All of this means that the road towards becoming a professional poker player is a journey of self-improvement. If you\u2019re able to access poker rooms without excessive rake, you can undertake that journey yourself. Just keep in mind that online poker is significantly more competitive now than it was in the early days.\nCheck out our Online Poker Guide to learn how to win real money playing poker online against other players from around the world.\nOnline Horse Race Betting | Return-to-player score: 7/10\nMany sportsbooks accept bets on horse races. Available options typically range from standard Win/Place/Show bets to the more complex Quinella and Trifecta bets. High-profile betting platforms have excellent track coverage, allowing customers to wager on races held in Australia, Europe, South Africa, and the United States.\nIt\u2019s possible to profit from horse race betting, but it requires more research than betting on regular sports. This is due to the sheer number of horses participating in most races. Typically, you won\u2019t have access to data on the performance of individual horses against one another, which can be difficult to work around.\nSee our Online Horse Race Betting Guide to learn how horse racing works, how to bet on horse races online, and valuable tips to help you make more profitable betting decisions.\nOnline Fantasy Sports | Return-to-player score: 8/10\nFantasy sports gambling sites allow players to assemble virtual teams composed of real sportsmen or women. These teams compete with one another based on the real-life performances of their members. The most popular forms of competition are head-to-head 50/50s and guaranteed prize pool tournaments.\nBeing successful at fantasy sports requires a similar skill-set to the one that makes a successful sports bettor. The key difference is that you will be dealing with individual players instead of the team-level odds set by professional oddsmakers.\nCheck out our Daily Fantasy Sports Guide for the best DFS sites and tips for making money with daily fantasy sports betting.\nOnline E-Sports Betting | Return-to-player score: 7/10\nE-Sports betting is a new service offered by innovative sportsbooks. Through it, you can wager on the outcomes of competitive gaming events, such as League Championship Series, The International, DreamHack, or the Evolution Championship Series. Most e-sports betting is centered around MOBA games (League of Legends, DOTA 2, King of Glory), RTS games (StarCraft 2, StarCraft: Brood War), and first-person shooters (Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, Overwatch), but other genres are also available around major tournaments.\nBetting options are less extensive than in traditional sports betting, but the most e-sports-friendly legit sites continuously add new bet types based on the mechanics of specific games. In terms of profitability, betting on e-sports is very similar to betting on traditional sports. Match outcomes are difficult to predict, but this is balanced out by the fact that the oddsmakers are less experienced with competitive e-gaming than they are with professional sports. As with traditional sports betting, it\u2019s possible to become a consistent winner as long as you\u2019re willing to put in the necessary work.\nSee our eSports Betting Guide for recommended eSports betting sites and tips to help you win real money betting eSports online.\nOnline Bingo | Return-to-player score: 3/10\nFrom a mathematical standpoint, bingo is just another casino title. It\u2019s a game of luck with a significant house edge, which usually amounts to about 10%. Players can improve their chances by buying the right cards, taking advantage of bonuses and discounts, and tracking the size of the field. However, once the game starts, the outcome is out of control.\nPlaying online bingo for a living is impossible for the same reason one can\u2019t become a long-term winner at slots or roulette: the expected return on each bet is negative, which means that every player will eventually lose his entire bankroll. However, it\u2019s possible to exploit the variance and become a short-term winner.\nSee our Online Bingo Guide to get valuable tips for winning real money at online bingo.\nOnline Lotteries | Return-to-player score: 1/10\nThere are two ways to buy lottery tickets online. You can either use the official website, which is not different from going to a local distribution point, or you can use a lottery concierge service. The latter allows you to purchase tickets for any lottery in the world. The catch is that you\u2019ll have to pay a small commission on every transaction, which reduces your potential profits.\nIn terms of profitability, playing the lottery is the worst form of online gambling by a large margin \u2013 the house edge is usually close to 50%. To put this in perspective, consider that casino games with a 15% or higher house edge tend to be considered highly unfair. Furthermore, the odds of scoring a large win are extremely low. As a result, you should only play the lottery for fun and without expectations.\nSee our Online Lotteries Guide to learn how to buy lottery tickets online.\nGambling sites by country\nCountry-specific gambling regulations have a significant impact on your ability to find a safe site in your jurisdiction.\nFederal gambling laws in the United States are very strict on operators. This makes it impossible for offshore, reputable US gambling sites to offer their services to Americans without coming into conflict with the Department of Justice. Fortunately, regulations don\u2019t impose penalties on the players, with the exception of Washington.\nOther than that, all states have their own gambling regulations, which in most cases don\u2019t address the issue of internet games directly. Residents of such states are free to play on offshore sites that don\u2019t follow federal laws.\nNew Jersey, Nevada, and Delaware have legalized online gambling and have their own fenced iGaming markets.\nBest US-facing offshore platforms:\nBest Nevada-licensed sites:\nWSOP NV\nBest New Jersey-licensed sites:\nBest Delaware-licensed sites:\nCasino Delaware Park\nHarrington Gaming Online\nCanadian land-based gambling laws are strict and prohibit all types of gambling. Provincial and territorial governments are allowed to provide regulated gambling to Canadian citizens and have established regulatory bodies for this purpose. There are some secure sites operating under locally-issued licenses, such as Loto-Quebec and PlayNow. However, the traffic they get is very poor, which has a negative impact on the player experience, particularly when it comes to poker.\nImportantly, there are no laws prohibiting individual iGaming enthusiasts from using offshore Canadian gambling sites. This means that Canadians have access to US-facing operators, such as Bovada, and massive international platforms, including PokerStars and William Hill.\nBest international platforms that accept Canadians:\nBest US-facing gambling platforms available to Canadians:\nThe UK is one of the most gambling-friendly countries in the world, both from an operator\u2019s and player\u2019s perspective. All forms of internet gambling are legal there, and up until 2014 offshore sites weren\u2019t even required to have UK-issued licenses to offer their services to UK residents. What\u2019s more, players in the UK don\u2019t have to pay consumption taxes because the government is interested in encouraging them to play on local, safe sites. This also extends to professional gamblers, who treat poker or sports betting as their main source of revenue. As a result, UK-based gambling aficionados have access to all the best iGaming platforms in the world. See our list of recommended UK gambling sites for more information.\nBest international platforms available to UK-based players:\nBest UK-based iGaming platforms:\nAustralian gambling enthusiasts used to enjoy unrestricted access to international gambling platforms, thanks to legal loopholes in the Interactive Gambling Act of 2001. However, the situation changed in September 2017, when the Interactive Gambling Amendment (IGA) Bill of 2016 came into effect. As things stand, offshore gambling operators face massive fines for offering their services to Aussies, which forced many of the reputable Australian gambling sites to withdraw from the market.\nIt\u2019s worth noting that only operators were targeted by the government. There is no law that punishes individual gamblers for continuing to play on illegal sites. Furthermore, the IGA does not apply to Australian-owned sports betting sites or lotteries as long as they\u2019re associated with a local land-based gambling company.\nLegal Australia-licensed gambling platforms:\nOffshore gambling sites that still accept Australia residents:\nThe Gambling Act of 2003 outlines what forms of gambling are permitted in New Zealand and grants the New Zealand Racing Board complete control over regulated sports betting in the country. This act was amended twice, in 2005 and later in 2015, but none of these amendments affected individual gamblers. In fact, the NZ legislation targets operators exclusively.\nUnlike Australia, New Zealand didn\u2019t take a firm stand against offshore gambling platforms, so most international operators still offer their services to NZ-based gambling enthusiasts. Learn more about online gambling in NZ.\nBest offshore gambling platforms that accept New Zealand-based players:\nNZ-licensed sports and horse racing betting sites:\nTAB.co.nz\nThe amended National Gambling Act of 2004 specifically prohibits South Africa residents from using real money internet casino, bingo, and poker platforms from South Africa. Government officials are allowed to confiscate unlawful winnings, which are then donated to the Unlawful Winnings Trust. Furthermore, the National Gambling Regulator is expected to be vigilant in alerting banks and payment processors to illegal iGaming transactions. The goal here is to block deposits to prohibited sites.\nThe only form of internet gambling that\u2019s allowed in South Africa is state-licensed sports and horse race betting. Recreational gambling winnings are not considered income for income tax purposes.\nBest online sportsbooks that accept punters from South Africa:\nThe federal Public Gambling Act of 1867 is the central piece of gambling-related legislation in India. However, due to the outdated nature of this document, everything is regulated on the local level. Furthermore, the Information Technology Act of 2000 can theoretically be used to punish online gamblers for \u201ctransmitting information that can corrupt people\u201d, but in practice, PokerStars has launched a successful site for India with a segregated player pool. All in all, the country\u2019s legal framework is very ambiguous, but that doesn\u2019t seem to be preventing local players from joining international sites. See our list of the best online gambling sites that accept Indian Rupees.\nBest international gambling sites available in India:\nBest local gambling sites available in India:\nPokerStars.in\nTips for choosing a legitimate gambling site\nChoosing a legit site can be a daunting task for the inexperienced, which is why the best approach is to break the process down into three steps. Begin by checking which of the sites available in your area of residence catch your interest due to their game selection and feel. Next, remove all sites that don\u2019t have a long history of fair conduct behind them. Finally, compare available bonuses \u2013 not just in terms of size, but also in terms of wagering requirements. Check out our real money site reviews for details and recommendations.\nBigger is usually better\nPlatforms that get a lot of traffic almost always offer better services than ones that don\u2019t. This is because more traffic means more revenue, and more revenue allows for better promotions, bonuses, and games. Furthermore, the iGaming market is overcrowded at this point, which results in fierce competition between operators. Usually, the platform with the largest market share offers a better product, while smaller competitors try to carve out their own share by offering more attractive welcome bonuses.\nIn the case of competitive gambling, higher traffic translates directly into a better player experience. This is most apparent in online poker, where bigger platforms are capable of sustaining more exotic game variants and give you access to larger prize pools.\nPick a trustworthy site\nAlthough attracting a large crowd is heavily indicative of trustworthiness, always check whether the sites you\u2019ve pre-selected for direct comparison have the right paperwork. In gambling-friendly countries like the United Kingdom, Germany, or Canada, this boils down to checking whether the operator in question has a valid license issued by a widely-recognized regulatory body.\nMost international platforms operate under licenses issued in Gibraltar, Curacao, Malta, or the Isle of Man, as this allows them to avoid excessive taxation. Some countries have fenced iGaming markets that are isolated from international player pools. If you live in such a country and have no access to an international, secure site, you should prioritize operators that have been approved by your local regulatory body.\nThe above also applies to those parts of the United States that have legalized online gambling. If you have no choice but to play on an offshore site, always go for the most reputable operators, such as BetOnline or Bovada.\nCompare bonuses\nBonuses are there to draw your attention, but you should always consider them last. That 200% match up to $3,000 first deposit bonus won\u2019t mean much if your relatively unknown poker room or online casino refuses to process your legitimate withdrawal.\nThe size of the bonus isn\u2019t the most important factor, especially when it comes to casinos and poker rooms. This is because you will be required to meet certain conditions before you\u2019ll be able to withdraw a part of the bonus or any winnings.\nTypically this means wagering the combined value of your bonus and deposit a predetermined number of times in less than 30 days. A $200 casino bonus with a 15x wagering requirement is significantly better than a $500 bonus with a 30x playthrough. The latter might seem larger, but odds are high you\u2019re going to lose your bankroll before you\u2019ll be able to cash out. The former might seem small, but there\u2019s a higher probability that at least some of that cash will make its way to your pocket.\nScams come in many shapes and forms, but one of them deserves particular attention: spoofing. This tactic involves the perpetrators tricking you into believing they are representatives of an online casino or sportsbook. They do this either by e-mail or by setting up a website that looks surprisingly similar to a casino\u2019s official website. The scammers will then offer you a particularly enticing bonus in exchange for making a prompt deposit. If you follow their instructions, you\u2019ll end up sending your money to the crooks instead of the real site.\n\u201cIf it\u2019s too good to be true, it probably is\u201d \u2013 the old maxim is particularly true in the gambling world. Always make sure you are browsing a casino\u2019s official website by double-checking their URL in your browser, and never initiate deposits from outside the casino\u2019s official applications.\nCredit Cards & Prepaid Cards\nIn this category, virtually anything with a Visa or MasterCard logo is included. Most sites will allow you to fund your account via a major credit/debit card, as well as pre-paid cards, although some sites do not allow this. The benefit of using a credit card is that it is secure and funds are applied rapidly. The biggest drawback is that it takes much longer to withdraw funds when you\u2019re ready to cash out your winnings. Most people have to request a check or wire transfer, which can take up to 5 business days or more.\nFunding an account with a credit card is easy. Just like any online purchase, you will be required to provide your name, billing information, and information located on the front and back of your card. If the information clears, the transaction processes and funds are deposited immediately. Some people may get denied because they are attempting to go over their limit, or information they provided does not match up with information tied to the account.\nPre-paid cards are a great route to go for those wishing to keep gambling transactions out of their primary card statements, and also for those who want to impose limits on their spending amounts. If you often find yourself going above and beyond your budget, or losing track of your spending habits, then funding an online gambling account with a pre-paid method can be an excellent option. It is important to note that some sites will not accept pre-paid cards.\nCash Transfer Services\nWestern Union and Moneygram are two of the most popular methods of funding an account via cash transfer service and can be completed either over the net or in person at a retail location. The benefit of using a cash transfer service is that you can use cash. Another benefit is that it is safe, although it does require a little bit of effort to get the money deposited. If you have decided you want to fund your account using this method, you will need to consult the gambling site you are using in order to gather the information necessary for them to receive your payment.\nAfter you have done this, you can register online with the cash transfer service to set up your account. You can then fund the account and send that information back to the gambling site for confirmation. This method is fairly fast and also secure, although a small percentage of the transferred funds will be deducted as a service fee. For those who would prefer not to pay any fees, I would recommend sticking to a credit card when possible. But this is a great option for those who may not have a credit card readily available.\nIn our opinion, E-wallets and cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, are what will dominate the future market in terms of all online gambling transactions. Here\u2019s why.\nFirst and foremost, it is more private, and therefore more secure, than most major forms of transacting available. E-wallets essentially take the money out of your hand and put it in the hands of a trusty middleman, or your own personal banker.\nSome popular e-wallets include Neteller, FirePay, and Paypal. The benefits of using an eWallet are that you are funding a personal account completely separate from your gambling one, so in the instance that the site you are using is fraudulent or gets hacked, your personal billing information and card information isn\u2019t subject to compromise. For the most part, reputable online gambling sites are very safe in terms of privacy, but for those who are concerned, this can be an excellent safeguard.\nCryptocurrency (Bitcoin)\nAnother excellent method to fund accounts without compromising your privacy is to use alternate forms of currency, sometimes called cryptocurrency, with the most popular and available option being Bitcoin. Bitcoin is a form of digitalized currency which was first released in 2009 and has grown tremendously in virtually every market since. It first gained popularity on the \u201cdark net\u201d simply because no personal information is tied to the account when transacting. It is another type of eWallet with optimal anonymity. Some people really value this and online casinos started recognizing that.\nLegally, it is a little ambiguous as to whether or not Bitcoin transactions are in the same class as regular eWallet transactions, and so, for now, there is no formal legislation on its use in the online gambling sector. There are many online Bitcoin casinos, some specifically marketing themselves to American gamblers, for this reason. Bitcoin is easy to use and once you have your account established, funds can be transferred just like an eWallet.\nThe beauty and prestige of Bitcoin is that transactions are essentially very difficult to trace. This is made possible by its \u201cdecentralized\u201d network where no one\u2019s information is kept on a single server for too long and personalized credentials are nearly impossible for anyone to decipher. Bitcoin currencies do change in value over time, although historically, this value has only increased.\nRegardless of which method you choose to fund and withdraw from your online gambling account, one thing remains clear: the primary methods listed in this article are all safe and easy to use. Depending on the legislation in your region, you may be limited to one over the other, but for now, the primary methods of funding are easily accessible to most. Do your research and find out what works best for you.\nIf you\u2019re like most people you\u2019ve probably been bombarded with ads touting the convenience, fun, and rewards of online gambling. Advertisements pop up on your smartphone, slide up the side of your computer screen, and jump out at you from television commercials.\nBut what\u2019s so great about online gambling? Isn\u2019t it risky to trust some unknown casino with your credit card information? It\u2019s true. Online gambling can be risky if you\u2019re not careful. But it can also be fun, safe, and even lucrative if you do it right.\nImagine having your favorite slot machine all to yourself with no crowds, nerve wreaking noise, or smoke-filled rooms. Imagine playing at a blackjack table with just you and the dealer. How great might it be to bet on a keno or bingo game without the distraction of other players influencing your betting?\nHave you ever gotten up from a seat only to see someone else drop in a quarter in the machine you spent hours playing to win your jackpot? Real money online casinos eliminate that possibility. You are in the driver\u2019s seat and a quick trip to the bathroom or a moment to answer an important phone call will not cost you the chance of winning.\nUnless you live on the Vegas Strip, gambling online is usually more convenient and cost-effective than traveling. Not that there\u2019s anything wrong with traveling to a casino, especially when you want to do more than gamble (shop, hit the pool, go to some shows, etc). But if you want to be able to play slots on your phone or bet on your favorite sports team, online gambling is the only way to go.\nFree Practice & Lower Betting Limits\nUnlike brick-and-mortar casinos, online casinos allow you to sign up for a free account and practice all casinos games for free. Then, once you can deposit as little as $20 in some cases. Best of all you can play table games for as little as a $1/bet, whereas brick-and-mortar casinos usually have $10 minimum bets (sometimes $5 tables, but they are becoming rare).\nHow We Rate Online Gambling Sites\nYou can read more about the rating section we use on one of the reviews section pages, but here\u2019s a quick overview.\nA rating of 8 to 10 is reserved for a gambling site that has a long track record of fair and safe play. These sites are the first we look to when we want to play and the ones that we recommend to our friends and family.\nA rating from 1 to 3 is reserved for the places that we won\u2019t play and recommend that everyone avoid. These sites have so many issues in the past that the odds of you getting your money if you\u2019re lucky enough to win are small.\nRatings from 4 to 7 are for gambling sites that are for the most part safe but they have a number of issues that keep them from being rated higher. A 7 is much better than a 4, but we feel safe playing at a 4 or 5. We don\u2019t recommend depositing as much at lower rated casinos or sportsbooks, but we do recommend them if you don\u2019t find any of the sites we rate higher appealing to you for one reason or another.\nMore About the Real Gambling Sites Team\nHere at RealGamblingSites.com we provide unbiased ratings and honest reviews of the top online casinos, sportsbooks, and poker rooms.

We\u2019ve seen the good and the bad, including some sites that have always put their players first and the ones that simply disappeared in the night with their customer\u2019s money.\nWe\u2019ve learned that producing honest information builds trust and loyalty and is the only way we\u2019re willing to operate.\nLike we mentioned above, let us earn your trust. Don\u2019t make the mistake of just reading the reviews for the casinos with the best ratings because you\u2019ll miss some of the underhanded things bad ones do. Read a few in the lower ranges too.

        "raw_content": "\u201cThe Skeptic Joseph\u201d\nIn today\u2019s world we are taught to approach most things with a little skepticism. The used car salesman says the car works like new and were a little skeptical. The ad says if you take this pill your hair will grow back and we are skeptical. Your children say they\u2019ve done everything you\u2019ve asked them to do and\u2026\u2026well, you get the picture.\nSo I ask you, is it good to be skeptical? Sometimes it\u2019s good, isn\u2019t it? When you receive an e-mail from somebody claiming to be the deposed prince of Botswana and he has a load of cash for you to put in safe keeping for him guaranteeing you a large reward\u2026.all he needs is your bank account number and your social security number. At that moment it\u2019s very good to be skeptical. There is no way we should give that person anything, let alone our precious identity. That person has no other objective but to steal what is yours.\nBut what about those moments when you hear something that seems to good to be true? Let\u2019s say a couple of months ago you put your name in some box somewhere offering the person a new car if their name is picked. Suddenly you get a phone call to tell you you\u2019re the winner. Would you be a little skeptical at first? I know I would.\nEvery year around Christmas time, we hear the story of the miracle of Jesus\u2019 birth, and there are certain things concerning that birth that are hard to believe. Should we be skeptical?\nThe bible tells us the birth of Christ was planned before the dawn of time \u2013 do you really believe that? God\u2019s Word proclaims that this little helpless baby in a manger was actually God, who had come down in the flesh \u2013 do you believe it? It\u2019s pretty extreme to think that God would do such a thing as to lower himself that way. And then there is Mary claiming her birth is from God and that she is really still a virgin. If you were Joseph, would you have believed that? Here is your fianc\u00e9e coming back from a trip with a little bulge in her midsection and she says it\u2019s all from God, He\u2019s actually the Father, and not to worry. Ya, OK Mary\u2026 I believe you.\nJoseph learned to believe in the impossible and if you\u2019re not ready to believe in the impossible then you are not ready for Christmas. The Christmas story and the true meaning behind it are both filled with amazing claims and seemingly impossible promises \u2013 things that seem to good to be true. Are you ready to believe the impossible?\nTonight were going to focus on the first of our characters of the Christmas story, Joseph. And look at the birth of Christ from his point of view.\nWe\u2019re going to see how Joseph came to believe the impossible and was blessed for it. We\u2019re also going to see how we can receive those same blessings as we believe the amazing claims and seemingly impossible promises of God.\nLet\u2019s look at the life of Joseph. Joseph was a carpenter who lived in the very small town of Nazareth.\nHe was engaged to be married to a young lady named Mary. Now in that culture, an engagement meant that they were legally bound to be wed. You still had to go through the ceremony before you started living together, but once you were engaged, that was it. Legally you were hitched.\nBut something strange happened as we all know. His fianc\u00e9e started to act different. She seemed very nervous and even excited and then one day she takes off to visit relatives and stays for 6 months. The bible tells us that Mary had gone off to visit her cousin Elizabeth who we will talk about next week. Elizabeth is much older and pregnant with John the Baptist. Mary returns and there is that bump. Now Joseph is understandably concerned and probably expects that this was more than a trip to see her cousins.\nSo Mary tells him the whole story, about the angel that visited her, how God the Holy Spirit had caused her to become pregnant, how this child was going to be a boy and how they were suppose to name him Jesus. Oh, ya, and He\u2019s also going to be the promised Messiah. The baby is due in three months. Put yourself in Joseph\u2019s place. How would you react?\nWell, the bible also tells us that he reacted like most of us thought he would. He didn\u2019t believe her. She leaves for six months, comes back pregnant, and now she\u2019s going to give birth to the Messiah. He wasn\u2019t buying it. Joseph was a righteous man, a godly man, but come on. Who would believe such a tale?\nSo Joseph plans to get rid of her. Now he had every right to bring her to court and make a public example of her. The laws of that time would have even permitted him to stone her to death. But he went about to divorce her quietly because of the kind of person he was and because he wanted no more harm to come to Mary. He probably thought the loss of her mind was enough punishment.\nSo, would you have believed Mary? Or would you have been skeptical? Think of what he was being asked to believe. A virgin birth? The Holy Spirit causing her to conceive? This child was going to be the Messiah? Surely Mary has lost her mind or was, at least, relying on the gullibility of Joseph.\nAnd so Joseph resisted. He couldn\u2019t get himself to believe the impossible. But then one night an angel appears from God in a dream and says to him, \u201cJoseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary home as your wife, because what is conceived in her IS from the Holy Spirit.\u201d In other words, Mary is telling the truth. She really wasn\u2019t with another man after all. God the Holy Spirit was the Father. And then the angel said, \u201cShe will give birth to a son and you are to give him the name Jesus.\u201d Jesus would be the baby\u2019s name which means, \u201cthe Lord saves.\u201d\nThe angel says he should name him this because he is going to save his people from their sins. This little baby, born three months from now, will save the world from sin \u2013 seems too good to be true doesn\u2019t it.\nMatthew adds something really interesting to the story. This whole idea of the virgin birth, and that son being the Son of God \u2013 that\u2019s not a new idea. That was something that was actually foretold hundreds of years before by the prophet Isaiah. Matthew tells us, \u201cAll this took place to fulfill what the Lord had said through the prophet. In our first lesson we heard the word\u2019s of Isaiah when he wrote, \u201cthe virgin will be with Child, and give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel, which means, God with us.\u201d\nJoseph needed this visit from the angel. Joseph wasn\u2019t about to loose his skepticism without it. The angel came with a proclamation from God and Joseph believed. He did what the angel told him to do. He married Mary right away. A few months later Mary gives birth to a beautiful baby boy in a lowly stable and Joseph is now a step-father in charge of the Messiahs well being. Must have been mind blowing.\nJoseph was someone who came to believe the seemingly impossible. To this day, everyone remembers Joseph during the Christmas season. We look at the stable scenes and we see Joseph kneeling or looking over Mary shoulder at the baby Jesus and we are reminded of someone who came to believe in the promises of God.\nEvery Christmas we are put into the position to believe in the seemingly impossible and the amazing promise. We are called to believe when God says, because of my Son born on Christmas, I will forgive you all the sins you have ever committed. That\u2019s an amazing promise.\n\u201cI promise you\u201d, says God, \u201cthat the moment you die, I\u2019m going to claim your soul and bring you home with me in heaven.\u201d Do you believe? \u201cI promise you,\u201d says God, \u201cthis is my body, this is my blood, and these were given and shed for you, for the forgiveness of all of your sins.\u201d How can that be? It seems impossible.\nBut that\u2019s Christianity, isn\u2019t it? The essence of Christianity is believing in the seemingly impossible. As Christians we believe in the virgin birth. As God\u2019s children we know that this little babe in a manger was God Himself. We believe that this baby grew up to suffer and die for us so we could be free from sin. That\u2019s Christianity, believing in the seemingly impossible.\nSo, do you believe in the impossible? Are you ready for Christmas? If you struggle sometimes, if you\u2019re a little skeptical at times, don\u2019t worry \u2013 you\u2019re not alone. God probably isn\u2019t going to send an angel to set you straight. Instead God sends you His Word, and His Sacrament. These are God\u2019s angels for you today. This is how God gives to you the same thing he gave to Joseph. And that is faith \u2013 the ability to trust in the seemingly impossible promises of Christmas.\nMay God continue to be with you this season and may he give you the same heart he gave to Joseph \u2013 a heart that believes things that seem to good to be true, and yet, they are. Then you will be ready for Christmas. Then you will ready to welcome the Christ child, God\u2019s gift to you as it was to Joseph. Amen.\nBible Study: Joseph and Mary\nWhat would be your reaction, given the same story Mary gave Joseph? What emotions would be there?\nWhat were Mary\u2019s options being pregnant and carrying a baby not her husband\u2019s? What does this tell you of her trust in Joseph?\nDo you believe the world is more skeptical now then it was in the days of Joseph? How has this affected Christianity?\nWhat is hard to believe about Christianity for some?\nWhat does it mean to truly trust someone? What are the signs?\nWhat does God say about trust? Psalm 13:5, 31:14-15; 37:5-6, 40:4, 56:3-4; Proverbs 3:5-8; Isaiah 26:3-4; Mark 11:24; Romans 10:9\nWhat is necessary for trust to happen?\nDo you believe Mary was skeptical at first? Why or why not? Luke 1:34\nWhat qualities do you suppose God was looking for that were found in Mary?\nWe tend to think this miracle given to Mary and Joseph was an honor. In what ways was it challenging for each of them individually?\nWhat qualities do you suppose God was looking for that were found in Joseph? Hebrews 11:6\nWhat would Jesus have learned as the son of a carpenter? What experiences would this have exposed him to?\nWhat does it tell you about Joseph that he was willing to quietly divorce Mary? Matthew 1:19-20\nWhat risk was Joseph taking by marrying the pregnant Virgin Mary?\nIn what ways are Mary and Joseph\u2019s relationship like every marriage relationship? How was it different?\nWhy, do you suppose, we weren\u2019t given more information in Scripture about Joseph, especially in the understanding of the role the husband played in families at the time? Matthew 2:13-15, 19-23\nAs men, what can we learn from Joseph? As women, what can you learn from Mary?\nAs we prepare for the Advent season, I thought it only fitting to focus on the reason for the season, the coming of Jesus Christ, the King above all kings.\nThis title, \u201cKing of kings,\u201d is used six times in Scripture. In 1 Timothy 6:15, this title is applied to God the Father\u2026\n\u201cHe who is the blessed and only Sovereign, the King of kings and Lord of lords, who alone has immortality, who dwells in unapproachable light, whom no one has ever seen or can see. To Him be honor and eternal dominion. Amen.\u201d\nIn Revelation 17:14 and 19:16, it refers to Jesus Christ (Christ meaning \u201cthe anointed king)\u2026\n\u201cThey will make war on the Lamb, and the Lamb will conquer them, for He is Lord of lords and King of kings\u2026\u201d\nThe King who has absolute power and dominion over all creation. The one who will, one day, come again to judge the world and establish His earthly kingdom. Rich in infinite sovereignty and great in infinite mercy.\nThe one with all power and might who chose to come into the earth\u2026 as a lowly child. Think about that for a second. The Lord of all creation, coming to be a Savior in all humility and dependency. Who, though He had all things, loved us enough to take on the ugliness of all mankind so that we might find peace and freedom from sin and death. Now, that is the mark of a true King of kings. That is who we celebrate today and who we should glorify every day with every waking moment.\nThe title King of kings is a victorious title. In its meaning is a claim of ownership and dominion. Everyone is to be in submission to Him because He is King Jesus and Lord of lords!\nThis mighty king would come with one purpose, to set His people free from the slavery they were under. He would come to free them from oppression and weakness, to give them a new life and a new hope.\nIf we surrender our fight against this King and allow Him to rule over us, we will be enriched beyond our greatest imaginings, in ways that surpass the physical and last for all eternity.\nAt the time Isaiah wrote His letter, God\u2019s people were in dire straits. They had few dreams of a coming Savior because all they could experience was defeat and darkness. Because of the ways they had fallen from God, the kingdom was now divided, Israel to the North and Judah to the south.\nAlliances had to be made with foreign kings who did not worship the one true God. At the time of Isaiah, the Northern kingdom of Israel had already been exiled to Assyria and life became, for them, hard and oppressive. They were a defeated nation in the midst of punishment for not following the orders of the King of all kings. It was God Himself, using Assyria to do His will so that His people might come to understand the importance and gravity of their sins.\nThen, the cycle to escape their sins was much like it is today. Under God\u2019s judgement they had the gift of repentance and God\u2019s grace towards forgiveness. But they were a hard-headed people, much like we are today. They didn\u2019t seem to get it.\nSo, out of love, God punished them, but not without giving them hope in something greater. By His overwhelming grace, God would give them an opportunity to continue in His grace once and for all until the very end of time. This is the message God the Father gave to His prophet Isaiah.\nFor the yoke of his burden, and the staff for his shoulder, the rod of his oppressor, you have broken as on the day of Midian\u2026.\nGod would send their precious Messiah to rescue them. He would send their long-awaited Christ to reign over them in power and strength. God, through Isaiah, is describing a great king. One day their burdens would end and God would make all things right. Because of these words they expected a great earthly king like David, but what we all received was much greater than he. What we would receive was much more than any earthly kingdom could provide. We would be blessed with the very Son of God Himself.\nImagine what these words would have meant to people walking in the darkness of despair. To be told their darkness would soon be greeted with a great light. Could this be the Light of the world? We have the fortune to know that yes, He is our light. He alone shines the way to everlasting hope. \u201cFor unto us a child is born, unto us a Son is given.\u201d Born to be King of kings and Lord of lords.\nI would guess that many in Isaiah\u2019s audience weren\u2019t very godly people. They had long since depended on other gods. God\u2019s made by the hands of man. After all, these were people who had fallen so far from God that they now faced exile by the hand of God Himself. They were walking in darkness like so many today who still don\u2019t get it. The shadow of death was looking over them and they could do nothing about it on their own.\nAnd now Isaiah is talking about a great light in the darkness, a child of hope and promise, a future for their people that would be led by a great King. A Wonderful Counselor, A mighty God, an Everlasting Father and Prince of Peace. This had to sound pretty good. If they would only believe it.\nAnd of course, Isaiah wasn\u2019t just talking about any random counselor. He certainly wasn\u2019t talking about their hand-made gods. This was no normal father or prince. This was the Counselor of counselors, the God of gods, the Father of fathers, the Prince of princes, the King of kings and the Lord of lords.\nA couple of chapters earlier, Isaiah had prophesied that a virgin would give birth and that His name would be called Immanuel, which means \u201cGod with us.\u201d This child would be called, \u201cThe Mighty God and the everlasting Father.\u201d\nOf course, this came true as fortold in Luke 1 when an angel appeared to Mary and told her that she was to be the mother of the Messiah:\n\u201cThe Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. So the holy one to be born will be called The Son of God.\u201d\nJesus Christ would take on flesh and dwell among us in all humility and vulnerability. Why is this important? Why should it matter to me that Jesus was and is God? Because this Son would be God\u2019s answer to His promise of salvation as first promised to those who walked in darkness in the days of Isaiah.\nThe repeated message of scripture is this. No one gains heaven because of their good deeds. You can\u2019t give enough time, money, housing, clothing or even blood to poor people in an attempt for heavenly favor enough to give you entrance. You could never be nice enough or caring enough or even holy enough to get a pass. Only this young babe in a manger could provide this. Only the King of kings Himself can save you.\nAnd, of course, this is because all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. The wages of sin is everlasting death and there is nothing we can do to change our sinful nature. We can\u2019t shake it off or do enough to clean it off. We can\u2019t nice it away or pray ourselves clean. Only Christ the King can do that. Only He has the ability to turn sinfulness into forgiveness.\nBut it\u2019s even greater than that. Colossians 1:15-17 tell us:\nAll this in the form of a small child in a manger. The creator of all, the one who holds all things together by the power in His hand, has come to us in humbleness to save us because we could not save ourselves.\nThere is a story of the wife of a pastor who decided to feed her two boys leftovers. She gave her 6 year old the remaining portion of some tortellini she had enjoyed earlier. Apparently it was good enough that the 8 year old wanted some too. That\u2019s when the argument started.\nThe dad tried to reason with his boys saying, \u201cJeremy, what would Jesus do in a situation like this? thinking his older son Jeremy would say \u201cHe\u2019d share.\u201d Instead Jeremy looked up and said, \u201cOh, dad\u2026He\u2019d just make some more!\u201d\nApparently Jeremy was well aware of the power of the King of kings. He believed that Jesus was able to do whatever He needed to do to supply us with the things we needed. What came so natural to Jeremy is often lost on us older folks who should know better. Too often we question just how much God can do. We bring Him down to our level to make Him easier to cope with. Jeremy knew better.\nYou might say, \u201cIt\u2019s impossible.\u201d But the King of kings says \u201cAll things are possible. You might say, \u201cI\u2019m just too tired.\u201d But the King of kings says, \u201cCome unto me and I will give you rest.\u201d You might say, \u201cI Can\u2019t go on anymore.\u201d But the King of kings says: \u201cMy grace is sufficient for you.\u201d You might say, \u201cI can\u2019t do it.\u201d But the King of kings says, \u201cYou can do all things through Me who gives you strength.\u201d\nJesus our King has always been and always will be. He is the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. John 5:24 says:\n\u201cI say to you, he who hears my Word and believes in Him who sent me has everlasting life, and shall not come into judgement, but has passed from death to life.\u201d\nThe King of kings welcomes you to His kingdom. Once you\u2019ve given up the battle against Him, once you have believed in His name, repented of your sins and have been washed clean in the waters of Baptism, you will receive a new life. Once you have done all this you will have a claim on heaven and from that day forward, you will fall under the protection and guidance of the King of kings who says: \u201cI will never leave you or forsake you.\u201d\nIt\u2019s not just my job to tell you this good news. It\u2019s all out jobs. The Kingdom is meant for all people and the King of kings would have that all would be saved. As servants to the King then, let\u2019s do the King\u2019s bidding. There is plenty of room at the banquet. May He reign forever in your life. Amen!\nBible Study: Christ the King\nWhat positive and negative images does \u2018King\u2019 conjure up for you?\nWhen you think of Christ as King, what comes to mind?

Article after article expressed the shock in most everyone\u2019s minds at the results. Just hours before, most were saying it was going to be a landslide for the Democratic nominee. Prominent media were giving almost no chance to the Republican nominee, some saying he had about a 2% chance of winning. But win he did, and now we have a new leader.\nIt was said that what the media and the pollsters were missing was those lost in the shuffle. They didn\u2019t understand the groundswell of people coming together for change. They couldn\u2019t see the people who were worried about the direction this nation seemed to be taking. They didn\u2019t comprehend the stress that people were under, especially financially.\nMeanwhile, those who hoped for a different result are in mourning. The rhetoric has already begun, complete with one excuse after another as to why things happened the way they did. \u201cHow will we go on\u201d they exclaim. \u201cWhat will I tell our children?\u201d\nThroughout our marriage, Cheryl and I have experienced our ups and downs as any relationship experiences. We have had roadblocks as high as the wall Trump wants to build and we have had victories that change lives. We mourn for the difficulties but we rejoice in the victories.\nThe greatest thing we have learned in our 33 years together, however, is that life will go on. Even our greatest challenges turned out to be nothing more than temporary disruptions.\nWe all live with disruptions in our life, but we get through them. This election is a disruption for many but, tomorrow the sun will rise again and we will carry on as we have always done. This will be a disruption to many, but they too will overcome it.\nYes, life is full of disruptions. Somebody cuts in line at the movie theater and we get annoyed, but it is merely a temporary disruption. We have a flat tire on the way to an important meeting, we experience momentary madness but even this is only a disruption. The company we have worked for all our life goes into bankruptcy and we lose our pension. Yes, even this is nothing more than a disruption because our life will still go on. It might have to go on differently, but the vast majority will endure.\nRecently, I got to have the most intimate conversation I\u2019ve ever had with my mother. It concerned her readiness for her earthly death.\nI needed to have this conversation even more than my mother I think, because I really didn\u2019t know where she stood. In the end, she was the same faithful mother I always knew I had.\nShe said she had no fear of death but that she didn\u2019t like having to leave. She loves her family and she loves her life. She treasures each and every experience. Despite some very real challenges, life has been good to her. But she didn\u2019t fear death. To her, it is simply a disruption she will endure to everlasting life.\nIf we\u2019re honest with ourselves, most of the situations we find ourselves in, good and bad, are merely temporary disruptions in life. We become anxious over them for a time, especially those one\u2019s we have little or no control over, but we move on, often to even greater things.\nYou and I are called to be good stewards of all that God gives us. We are called to give Him our very lives, let alone our tithes and offerings. To some this is a great disruption. They only see the difficulties this will cause them. But others see opportunity.\nGod issued a challenge to His people through the prophet Malachi. It was this: \u201cBring the full tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. And thereby put me to the test, says the Lord of hosts, if I will not open the windows of heaven for you and pour down for you a blessing until there is no more need.\u201d (Malachi 3:10)\nJust as with our past presidential election, we should not take this opportunity lightly. Many take for granted that their lives will be filled with financial struggle, so much so that they choose not to support their church with their tithes and offerings. They take for granted that a $100 donation means a $100 less for them to pay their bills with. They see the struggle but they forget the promise.\nWhen Cheryl and I went to seminary, we were faced with a very great challenge. We were in a new city with no jobs and the house we thought was sold, wasn\u2019t. This was devastating to us and I confess, we thought very seriously about holding back all our tithes. After all, our church was huge, other people could pick up the slack.\nBut then we thought of our own godly responsibilities. How much were we going to trust God to be good to His promise to provide. How much faith did we have in God Himself? In that sobering moment we made one of the hardest commitments we have ever had to make. We chose to tithe our normal percentage, even though we had no idea how we were going to make it work. All I can say about that experience is that God is most certainly good to his promises. He provided in ways we had no right to even think about. Every month our rent was paid and every night there was food on the table. Our problems were only temporary disruptions.\nThe truth is, God\u2019s promise in Malachi is so strong that He asks you to test Him on it. It\u2019s all right to test God if He asks you to by the way. His promise was filled with so much spiritual power that God issues a challenge to us to have faith in the promise.\nWe are all called to be good stewards of our time, talents and treasures, yet, so often, we back away from the challenge. We don\u2019t trust God to be good to His Word. We take for granted that life will be even harder if we give more. So what do we do? We hold back. Therefore tithing takes a back seat as we place all our trust in worldly solutions all-the-while forsaking the promise we have been given.\nIs tithing an important part of your Christian walk? I certainly hope so. But, to be truthful, it\u2019s only the beginning of what God is asking of you. Your tithe is just a marker in a greater journey, for we are told in Scripture to bring those tithes and offerings before the Lord. What moves you to greater things? What incentive do you need to convince you to take a greater journey then you have before? Is it the possibility of riches? Of fame? Of acceptance? What leads you to move forward in faith? To be willing to trust in God above all things? To be good stewards of your time, talents and treasures in a godly pleasing way? Does it work to bring out the pledge commitment cards? Is it to have some big stewardship campaign once a year? Is that what it takes to move you? Those things work for some, but, by and large, they do little to motivate most.\nWhen I think of stewardship it brings to mind a story about a small Lutheran Church located in a farming community. The Pastor would call on every member of the congregation as a part of the annual stewardship campaign. The next home that he was going to visit was that of farmer Brown. Now, Mr. Brown was known in the community to be very frugal with his finances, if you know what I mean. The Pastor asked farmer Brown, \u201cIf you inherited two million dollars would you give $200,000 to the church\u201d? \u201cPastor, I would surely give at least 1/10th to the Church\u201d he replied. \u201cNow, farmer Brown if you had ten tractors, would you donate one to the church for a fund raiser\u201d? \u201cIf I had ten tractors, I would gladly give one to the church\u201d. \u201cNow, farmer Brown if you had ten pigs\u2026.\u201d \u201cNow Just a minute Pastor, \u2026..You know darn well I\u2019ve got ten pigs\u201d!\nWhat farmer Brown was willing to do was as many of us do. He was willing to give of his excess. But when it came to His first fruits, he wasn\u2019t so willing. So what is expected of us? Is God satisfied with your excess?\nWe have but to go to the beginning of scripture and the story of Cain and Able. In this story, both brothers sacrificed to the Lord. The difference in their tithe was that Able gave of the best of his herd, of his first fruits while Cain did not. As a result, God favored Able\u2019s gift and had no regard for Cain\u2019s. It seems unfair, because, after all, Cain did give.\nBut, you see, God is not looking at what we give, rather, He\u2019s looking at how we give it. Do you just give Almighty God whatever you might have left over, or do you give of your first fruits? Do you give willingly with joy or do you grumble? Do you give with eager anticipation for the journey in faith your taking or are you resigned to the fact that its little more than just another bill you\u2019ve been guilted into giving? Scripture tells us that God loves a cheerful giver.\nSo, as a good shepherd then, how much am I to give you ask. Well, St. Paul tell us in 2 Corinthians 9:6-8:\n\u201c..Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows bountifully will also reap bountifully. Each one must give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. And God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that having all sufficiency in all things at all times, you may abound in every good work.\u201d\nSounds to me like another promise. Of course, this doesn\u2019t mean that if you give half your income you\u2019ll get even more back. Anyone who gives with that attitude is not a cheerful giver. Rather, God asks for you to trust Him to provide in His way, which, as it turns out, is always the best way.\nWe are asked to give for many reasons but none greater than that it transforms us into the likeness of Christ. We have only to look at the reward we received because of the sacrifice He was willing to give. Our giving also follows God\u2019s mandate to love your neighbor as you modal the relationship God has with us toward your neighbors.\nThis, of course, means tithing not just financially but also personally. When you ask someone to come to church with you, you are tithing your time. When you mentor a child, you tithe your talents. It doesn\u2019t have to have a clearly religious connection. Likewise when you donate to a worthy cause, you tithe whether it\u2019s a Christian cause or not. Anything that shows a Christ-like attitude is part of the tithing you give to God.\nAs Christians we are called to live by faith, the kind of faith that will move you to commit your resources for the betterment of others. We are then, in the same measure, to put our faith in God\u2019s provision. By faith we trust that God will be good to His promise. What will it take for you to believe it?\nSo we are asked to give of our time, talents and treasures in faith and charity. Paul writes to the Ephesians, \u201cAwake, O sleeper, and arise from the dead and Christ will shine on you.\u201d\nIt is time we stop standing in the shadows as Christians, tithe your time you sleepers and Christ will shine on you. Make good use of your time by using your time in a Christ-like manner in service and grace. You only have a certain amount of days on earth. Are you going to use them or abuse them? How will you manage your time? Will it be spent on pleasing you or will it be spent on pleasing the Master?\nAnd we all have talents given by God to serve Him in His kingdom. Are you going to use yours making a kingdom difference? The Lord calls us and equips us for service and has given each a special ability to bring about godly change. Are you a singer? Then sing His praises. Are you a teacher? Than find people who have yet to know of Christ. Are you a prayer warrior? Than join others in weekly prayer. Are you an encourager? Than motivate others to walk in a Christ-like manner with love and patience.\nAre you a mechanic, wood-worker, electrician? Are you good with numbers, a excellent organizer, or an astute businessman? Then finds way to advance the kingdom.\nAnd finally we have all been given treasures in varying amounts. God asks you to trust Him in this also.\nOne day, we will all have the incredible pleasure to stand before our Savior. At that time you will have to give account as to what kind of steward we really were. What can you tell Him if that were to happen to you today?\nYour God has given you all good things and He has even more to give. Yes, we are all struggling, but that should only encourage us to trust in God even more. He was willing to do what it took to further the Kingdom when He allowed His only Son to be sacrificed in our place. What sacrifice are you willing to give.\nGod has great plans for each and every one of you. Plans for good and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope. If you seek Him you will find Him when you seek Him with all your heart. Trust Him in every aspect of your lives, especially those times that seem like you have to take a true risk to do it. Put your faith in Him and He will restore you. Amen.\nBible Study: Stewardship\nWhat is ownership?

I read a story not so long ago about a woman whose 2nd grader had collected a fair amount of money from the \u201ctooth fairy.\u201d Every time her daughter Rachel lost a tooth, they\u2019d put it in a small envelope and put it under her daughter\u2019s pillow, and behold, in the morning, the tooth was gone and in its place was $2. That was just great. Two dollars is a lot of money for a 2nd grader. At least it was until, one day Rachel visited a friend of hers. Her friend was telling how she had put her tooth under her pillow and found $10 the next morning. Rachel then asked her friend\u2019s mother, \u2018Mrs. Kraft, would you mind doing me a big favor? Would you please call my mom and tell her which tooth fairy you use?\u2019\u201d\nToday we finish our series on the seven deadly sins by talking about the sin of envy. A source of unhappiness which, I\u2019m sure, we have all experienced at one time or another. One source I read in my preparation for this sermon called it the most joyless of the Seven Deadly Sins. It caused the fall of God\u2019s angels, it caused the fall of Adam and Eve, it led to the first murder when their son Cain envied his brother Able, it was the sin that caused Saul to want to murder David and the sin that led the Scribes and Pharisees to persecute Jesus. In short, it\u2019s a sin that can only lead to despair.\nEnvy is a sin of sadness because it comes from a jealous heart not satisfied. We see the good in others, and instead of rejoicing for them we only see the lack of something in ourselves.\nSome may say that there is a gray area with envy and that it is not always a sin. They\u2019ll say that we can envy someone\u2019s knowledge without knocking ourselves down for our lack of knowledge. We can envy someone\u2019s faith in a way that can help us to increase our own faith. We can envy someone\u2019s toy\u2019s without having to have them to find our happiness. But I say there is a difference between admiration and envy. With envy comes discontentment and covetousness. It\u2019s where admiration crosses the line into sin.\nEnvy is addressed by God in Scripture many times, none so clearly as when He gives us His 10 Commandments. Envy is the breaking of both commandment number 9 and 10, \u201cYou shall not covet your neighbor\u2019s house and you shall not covet your neighbor\u2019s wife, nor his man-servant, nor his maid-servant, nor his cattle, nor anything that is his.\u201d\nOur Gospel lesson gives what I feel is the most detailed description of envy in it\u2019s parable of the laborers in the vineyard. The laborers who worked all day supposed that, at the end of the day, they would receive more money than those hired later in the day. When this turned out not to be true, they complained because of their envy over those who worked less but received the same pay. Upon this complaint the land owner says, \u201cAre you envious because I am generous?\nEnvy has been described as distorted self-love, an enemy of charity and a passion of selfish sadness. It frequently gets confused with jealousy but, whereas jealousy is mostly seen in the want of worldly things one doesn\u2019t possess that another does, envy goes much deeper, because an envious person mourns over someone else\u2019s increase of something. It\u2019s much more spiritual, yearning more for satisfaction than possession.\nWe often here of our God being a jealous God. We are His possession and He is jealous when we try to give ourselves to someone or something else. But God has nothing to envy in us. God has a right to our undivided faithfulness and trustful dependence, but He certainly doesn\u2019t get envious out of any increase we might gain.\nJealousy is really best described as the beginning of envy. That thing right before the tipping point between want and need. Envy invades our very souls with a misleading emotion of right and wrong, fair and unfair. It turns want into selfish need. A need coming from a feeling of unfulfillment and greed. If we don\u2019t have what we envy, we feel lesser somehow.\nSo we have admiration, that leads to jealousy that leads to envy and all the while the devil whispers his deceitful murmurs into our ears to help us along the path. We go from wishing to wanting to worship and the devil has won again.\nIf we\u2019re being honest, this is another of those sins that hit a little too close to home for us. We\u2019ve all been along that path from admiration to envy because our feelings are not always under our own control. But, we need not bow down to sin simply because it comes so easy for us. God has given us a reasoning mind and its only when those feelings overcome reason that we act in foolish and unholy ways. God has built into us a knowledge of right and wrong, it\u2019s because we wanted to know the difference between good and evil that we are in this predicament in the first place. But God would never leave us defenseless.\nTo overcome these things, God has promised to be our strength. He has given us repentance and forgiveness to give us a new start. He has opened His heart and His hearing to us so that we might communicate our concerns one-to-one.\nIt\u2019s important that we continually strive not to let our unholy feelings dominate our thinking, leading us to unholy action. And God understands that we cannot do it alone. That\u2019s why He gave us His only Son, so that we might be assured in our greatest need, that he will be there with a willing heart to help us overcome the trials our lives of sin have caused us to live.\nHe knows our proud and selfish nature and, even more importantly, He knows how to lead us to overcome those sinful impulses.\nWe must also strive to undermine the sources of our envy. Our wants become irrational needs when we expose our sinful desires towards things God had no intention for us to have. We see someone who seems to have it all, but that doesn\u2019t mean our fate is the same. Instead of striving for worldly things, the Holy Spirit guides us to strive for heavenly things. Instead of pinning your hopes and dreams on something we don\u2019t have, Christ reminds you to be thankful for the things you\u2019ve already been given. Worldly riches are temporary but heavenly riches are eternal.\nWe must strive to detach our hearts from earthly things that enslave us, riches that are only for a moment, gratifications that are shallow, desires that only lead to greater desires. God the Father says through Paul in 1 Corinthians 1:9, \u201cWhat no eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor the heart of man imagined, what God has prepared for those who love Him.\u201d\nGod has given us all good things in just the right measure here on earth. We should, therefore, have no reason to strive after other earthly things, especially in the knowledge of heavenly things yet to come where there will be no room for envy because each soul will be rejoicing in each other\u2019s good fortune.\nAgain we come to opposites. If we are to overcome envy, it would have to come through our charity. Since ungodly envy is directly opposed to charity, which desires the good of one\u2019s neighbor all-the-while rejoicing in one\u2019s own prosperity, our remedy would come in striving through prayer and supplication to practice godly charity.\nWe are all members of one body, each designed by our creator with a purpose. As the members of the same body, therefore, the gain for others is really a gain for ourselves also. Again in 1st Corinthians, this time chapter 12:\nIn Galatians 6 we are urged to bear another\u2019s burdens. That is the very definition of charity. Envy only adds burdens by seeking to improve oneself at the expense of others. Redeemer, or anywhere else Christ is proclaimed, will benefit in its greatest measure if we focus, not on ourselves, but on the body as a whole. We heard in our Proverb for today, \u201cA heart at peace gives life to the body, but envy rots the bones,\u201d\nThere is one thing we already possess that should take care of any worldly envy we might be experiencing. Together, as believers, we already possess everlasting life. We have one thing that is more important than anything else and that is Christ. We have one thing that will sustain us more than any earthly riches or honor ever could and that is the love of the God. We have God and He is more than enough.\nContentment comes in recognizing the value of God\u2019s sovereignty. He is the one who created us. He is the one who controls all things. He is the one who loved us enough to make our path to heaven unencumbered by sending His Son to clear away the ugliness of sin blocking our way.\nHe is the one tirelessly working things out for our good. We have God and He is more than enough.\nThat\u2019s not to say, we have no part in it. It\u2019s still up to us as to where our trust will go. We will still be free to hope in ungodly things. We will still be free to believe what we want to believe, assume what we want to assume and have faith in what we want to have faith in.\nGod will not force you to believe just as He won\u2019t force you to give up your envy for worldly things. But He never stops searching for you. He never stops leading you. He never stops loving you. No matter how far you stray of the narrow path.\nSo start praying for those you envy. Rejoice in the good that others receive. Pray that God uses their good fortune for His glory as well as any good fortune greater or lesser that he might give us. We are told to pray for those who persecute us but I say, especially pray for those we have persecuted because of the evil envy within us.\nRejoice in the coming kingdom and in the riches you will receive there that go way beyond any earthly riches you could imagine. Rejoice in our Savior who gave all of Himself so that we could cleanse all of ourself. Rejoice in a changed heart, a renewed spirit and a mended heart.\nIs envy a part of what defines you today? Do you feel incomplete because of something or someone you don\u2019t have? Are you discontent with what God has given you? If so, I invite you to surrender that part of you that only brings sadness. Rejoice in the gifts you have already been given that will lead you to your greatest reward. Surrender your envy to Christ and find your fulfillment in Him. Amen\nBible Study: The Sin of Envy\nHow would you define envy? How is it different than jealousy?\nHow is God\u2019s jealousy different than envy? Exodus 20:5, 34:14; Deuteronomy 4:24; Psalm 79:5\nWhat does the Bible have to say about envy? Job 5:2; Proverbs 3:31, 14:30, 23:17, 24:1,19; Ecclesiastes 9:3-6; Romans 1:18-25; Galatians 5:19-21\nHow does envy serve as a motivation for evil acts? Matthew 27:17-18; Acts 7:9, 13:44-45, 17:5; Philippians 1:15-17; 1 Timothy 6:3-5; Titus 3:3-4\nHow are we to deal with envy? Romans 12:15-16; 1 Corinthians 13:4; James 3:17-18; 1 Peter 2:1-3\nThese verses from Isaiah are commonly understood to refer to Satan. The serpent in Genesis 3 is Satan. What kind of temptation, what kind of attitude, is common to both stories? Genesis 3:1-5; Isaiah 14:12-14\nHow would you rate Eve\u2019s life before sin? What does this teach us about envy and covetousness?\nWhat relationship is there between coveting, selfishness, and envy?\nAfter reading all this, what should we conclude about the sin of envy?\nHow does envy lead to destruction? Genesis 4:1-8; Psalm 37:1-3; Proverbs 6:34; James 3:14-16, James 4:1-3\nRead James 3:14-16 again. Is there a difference between ambition and selfish ambition? Proverbs 13:4; 1 Thessalonians 4:9-12\nLooking back at James 3:14-16, how is \u201cdisorder\u201d the result of envy?\nWhat does it mean to \u201cbe false to the truth\u201d when it comes to envy?\nRead James 4:1-3 again. Ask yourself the question that James asks. Is your answer the same as he suggests?\nWhat can we say about the results of envy?\nWhat does pride have to do with envy? James 4:6\nWhat makes you jealous or envious?\nWhat steps are you willing to take to be satisfied with what God has provided you?",

        "raw_content": "Jordan, Lawrence (1934--) By Gosse, Johanna\nhttps://www.rem.routledge.com/articles/jordan-lawrence-1934\nLawrence (Larry) Jordan has worked as an experimental filmmaker for the last six decades. Raised in Denver, Colorado, he attended high school with filmmaker Stan Brakhage and composer James Tenney. In the late 1950s he befriended artist Joseph Cornell, with whom he collaborated on a number of films. Jordan played a key role in the development of Bay Area film culture, as co-founder (with Bruce Conner) of the Bay Area\u2019s first film society and first 16 mm experimental theater in 1958, and later as a founding member of Canyon Cinema. In total, he has made more than fifty films, both live action and animated, many in collaboration with other artists. However, he is best known for his animated cutouts of Victorian engravings, which reflect the influence of Cornell\u2019s Wunderkammer-like boxes and Max Ernst\u2019s collage novels. His surreal animations, such as Duo Concertantes (1964) and Our Lady of the Sphere (1969), range from the meditative to the whimsical and the uncanny, and often feature vintage costumes, exotic animals, floating objects, and magical landscapes. Jordan represents a strand of the post-war American avant-garde that looked back to early film history with sincere affection rather than irony, and attempted to recover the enchantment of cinema at the turn of the century.\nGosse, Johanna. \"Jordan, Lawrence (1934--).\" The Routledge Encyclopedia of Modernism. : Taylor and Francis, 2016.

        "title": "SPECIAL REPORT-Backroom battle imperils $230 million cryptocurrency venture | Reuters",
        "raw_content": "SPECIAL REPORT-Backroom battle imperils $230 million cryptocurrency venture\nZUG, Switzerland/NEW YORK, Oct 18 (Reuters) - Just three months ago, a tech project called Tezos raised $232 million online in a wildly successful \u201cinitial coin offering,\u201d in which new digital currency is parceled out to buyers. At the time, it was the most money ever raised from the public in the white-hot cryptocurrency sector.\nBut the venture is now in danger of falling apart because of a battle for control playing out behind the scenes, Reuters has learned.\nThe acrimonious dispute pits Tezos\u2019 two young founders \u2013 Arthur and Kathleen Breitman \u2013 against Johann Gevers, the president of a Swiss foundation the couple helped establish to handle the coin offering and promote and develop the Tezos computer network.\nUnder Swiss law, the foundation is supposed to be independent. It holds all of the funds raised, which have mushroomed to more than $400 million in value because the contributions were made in two cryptocurrencies \u2013 bitcoin and ether \u2013 that have appreciated sharply. But the Breitmans, who still control the Tezos source code through a Delaware company, are seeking to oust the head of the foundation.\nAn attorney for the Breitmans sent a 46-page letter on Sunday to the two other members of the foundation\u2019s three-person board, calling for Gevers\u2019 prompt removal and seeking to give the couple a \u201csubstantial role\u201d in a new structure that would limit the foundation\u2019s responsibilities. The document accuses Gevers of \u201cself-dealing, self-promotion and conflicts of interest.\u201d According to Gevers, the two board members later suggested via email that he step aside for a month while they investigate.\nGevers told Reuters he is not stepping down. \u201cAs Arthur has done to others before me,\u201d Gevers said, \u201cthis is attempted character assassination. It\u2019s a long laundry list of misleading statements and outright lies.\u201d He said the other two board members \u201care attempting an illegal coup.\u201d\nThe Breitmans have been trying to control the foundation as if it were their own private entity, Gevers said, by bypassing the foundation\u2019s legal structure and interfering with management and operations. This has resulted in costly delays in developing and launching the Tezos network and new currency, he said.\n\u201cThey\u2019re unnecessarily putting the project at risk,\u201d he said.\nIn a written statement sent to Reuters, the Breitmans reiterated their accusations against Gevers and said they acted \u201cin accordance with all applicable laws and regulations.\u201d They said their priority \u201cremains the successful launch of the Tezos network.\u201d\nHundreds of millions of dollars are at stake: The Tezos digital coins, called \u201cTezzies,\u201d are already priced at a hefty premium in futures trading even though they don\u2019t yet exist. The launching of the Tezos network, which will trigger the coins\u2019 release, has been delayed. Until the network launches \u2013 and no date is set \u2013 contributors to the fundraiser will receive nothing.\nUnder the terms of the Tezos coin offering, there\u2019s no guarantee participants will ever receive a single Tez. Participants agreed to accept the risk that the project \u201cmay be abandoned.\u201d Despite the feud, Gevers said he remains committed to resolving the feud so that \u201cthis project succeeds.\u201d\nThe tale of how two young entrepreneurs raised a fortune for a project barely out of the starting blocks is reported here in detail for the first time. It highlights the risks inherent in the current frenzy for ICOs, in which tech startups issue new cryptocurrencies to raise capital.\nReuters reported last month that cryptocurrency exchanges \u2013 where virtual currencies are bought, sold and stored \u2013 have become magnets for fraud and deception. More than 980,000 bitcoins \u2013 the most popular virtual currency \u2013 have been stolen since 2011. Today they would be worth about $5 billion.\nSimilar large sums are pouring into initial coin offerings. From January through September, ICOs generated $2.2 billion, more than three times the amount invested in similar startups by traditional venture capital firms, according to Novum Insights, a data provider.\nICOs can be a way for technology projects to raise money online to finance the development of new, open-source computer networks that aren\u2019t necessarily looking to make a profit. Contributors receive new digital coins, or tokens, which they typically need to \u201cpay\u201d to access the new networks.\nBut the recent flurry of ICOs raising millions of dollars has attracted some dubious business propositions and outright scams, as well as speculators looking to trade the coins for swift gains. Authorities in the United States, Switzerland, China, Singapore and other nations have begun scrutinizing the sector closely for potentially tougher regulation.\n\u201cMost ICOs are bought by people looking to \u2018flip\u2019 their tokens to a greater fool for a quick profit,\u201d said Alistair Milne, a co-founder of the London-based Altana Digital Currency Fund, which so far has avoided ICOs. More than \u201c90 percent will fall to have a near-zero value in time,\u201d he predicted.\nThe new cryptocurrencies function through a technology called blockchain, essentially a public ledger maintained by a network of computers. Blockchain applications are being tested by financial services firms, food suppliers, retailers and other businesses as a way to make record-keeping simpler and cheaper. Tezos aims to be a blockchain that\u2019s more reliable than the ones behind bitcoin and ether. Several entrepreneurs and investors in the blockchain industry said the Tezos technology has potential because it would be easier to upgrade and may be more secure than other blockchains.\nThe son of Jean-Claude Deret, a French playwright and actor, Arthur Breitman studied applied mathematics, computer science and physics in France, before moving to the United States and studying financial mathematics at New York University. He went on to work for the investment banks Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley.\nHe is still listed as a co-organizer and \u201cdear leader\u201d for the New York Anarcho-Capitalist Meetup in New York, which describes its philosophy as \u201ca type of radical libertarianism that favors the abundant wealth production, rapid technological development, and high standards of living produced by capitalism.\u201d Its website adds, \u201cWe are also fairly lazy about fighting the state.\u201d\nIt was at a crypto-anarchist lunch in 2010 that Breitman first met Kathleen McCaffrey, an American college student from New Jersey. She is described on a political blog called The Politicizer as a libertarian Republican who first became interested in politics after listening to the provocative radio personality Rush Limbaugh at the age of five. She married Breitman in 2013.\nKathleen Breitman, now 27, later worked at the hedge fund Bridgewater Associates and at R3, a blockchain company. In a July post on the conservative website legalinsurrection.com, she said she \u201cdidn\u2019t get along\u201d at the hedge fund but had \u201ca great time\u201d at R3.\nBridgewater didn\u2019t respond to a request for comment. Arthur Breitman, 35, was an early fan of bitcoin, which first appeared around 2009. But he came to believe there were flaws in the blockchains behind bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, finding them hard to upgrade and not secure. He tried to come up with something better.\nIn the summer of 2014, while working at Morgan Stanley in quantitative finance, Breitman released two papers online that presented his concept for a new type of blockchain. He called it Tezos, a name his wife has said he coined after creating an algorithm that searched for the names of unclaimed websites pronounceable in English.\nThe papers were published under a pseudonym, \u201cL. M Goodman,\u201d but emails and messages from Arthur Breitman reviewed by Reuters make it clear he was the author.\nIn an email Breitman sent to an acquaintance in early 2015, he said he was seeking to create a business based on Tezos but was trying not to be associated publicly with the project at the time. He expressed worry that his activities might conflict with his employment at Morgan Stanley, messages show.\nReuters reviewed a copy of a \u201cTezos Business Plan\u201d from early 2015, which listed Breitman as chief executive. The plan projected that if the company survived 15 years, it would be worth between $2 billion and $20 billion. The budget called for paying Breitman $212,180 in salary by year three. In August 2015, Breitman, who was still working at Morgan Stanley, set up a company in Delaware called Dynamic Ledger Solutions Inc, or DLS, to develop Tezos. He listed himself as chief executive.\nThe U.S. Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) requires registered securities professionals to provide prior written notice to their employer to conduct outside business activities if there is \u201creasonable expectation of compensation.\u201d According to FINRA records, Breitman was registered and did not report any \u201cother business activities.\u201d Morgan Stanley and FINRA declined to comment.\n\u201cWe made all the proper disclosures,\u201d Kathleen Breitman told Reuters in June. \u201cIt was a hobby, you know. And like there was never any intention to really commercialize any of the software.\u201d She added: \u201cWe had some meetings with like C-suite executives at banks ... but honestly nothing serious.\u201d\n\u201cA TERRIBLE SALESMAN\u201d\nIn 2015, Arthur Breitman was pitching \u201cTezos Inc.\u201d in the hope of creating a consortium of four to five banks to adopt the technology and fund the operation. The business plan reviewed by Reuters called for raising $5 million to $10 million over two to three years.\nBy then, blockchain was beginning to pique the interest of large financial institutions for its potential to help cut costs of cumbersome back-office processes, such as the clearing and settlement of securities trades. Tezos\u2019 37-page business plan called it \u201can Internet for financial transactions\u201d and said the technology could be used to automate the over-the-counter derivatives trading market.\nBut Breitman failed to attract backers. He told Reuters in June that he blamed his fundraising failures on the decision to develop the technology first, rather than just selling \u201ca dream\u201d as other blockchain startups were doing.\n\u201cI guess I was a terrible salesman as well,\u201d he said.\n\u201cI can speak to that,\u201d his wife said.\nIn April 2016, Arthur left Morgan Stanley, and by that September, the Breitmans had started working on a new strategy for Tezos \u2013 to conduct an online fundraiser to distribute digital tokens, whose holders would maintain the Tezos blockchain. But the couple needed funds to keep the project going.\nOver the next six months, they received $612,000 from 10 early backers, including several cryptocurrency hedge funds, according to the Tezos.com website.\nTo conduct the ICO, the Breitmans chose a complex structure. Earlier this year, they helped to create a foundation based in Zug, Switzerland \u2013 dubbed \u201cCrypto Valley\u201d because of its many blockchain startups \u2013 that is seeking not-for-profit status, emails show. The idea, according to documents on the Tezos website, was that the foundation would raise money via the ICO, then acquire DLS, the Breitman-controlled company that has been developing Tezos.\nWorking through a Swiss foundation, the Breitmans thought, would provide regulatory oversight but not too much. Kathleen Breitman told Reuters in June that she and her husband opted to use a foundation based in Zug because Switzerland has \u201ca regulatory authority that had a sufficient amount of oversight but not like anything too crazy.\u201d\nGeorg von Schnurbein, co-author of a book on Swiss foundation governance, expressed surprise over cryptocurrency ventures like Tezos setting up not-for-profit foundations in Switzerland. \u201cFor me, the public interest is not clear,\u201d he said. While not illegal, he said, creating a foundation with the aim of allowing inventors to profit from a sale conflicted with its status as a not-for-profit, which is supposed to benefit the public. He said federal regulators eventually might prohibit it.\n\u201cThe issue that there is some kind of for-profit entity and there are transfers right at the beginning is something that is working at the moment, but won\u2019t be sustainable,\u201d he said.\n\u201cEXAGGERATED, TO SAY THE LEAST\u201d\nAs work continued for the ICO, which was originally scheduled to be held in May, the project started running out of cash, Kathleen Breitman told Reuters. She spoke with Tim Draper, the well-known founding partner of Silicon Valley venture capital firm DFJ and a staunch bitcoin supporter. He invested $1.5 million through his firm, Draper Associates, which included taking a minority stake in DLS, the company that controls the Tezos source code.\nThe Breitmans had also hired Strange Brew Strategies, a U.S. communications company, to promote their project, and Reuters wrote a news story on May 5 about Draper\u2019s involvement.\nIn pitching the story to Reuters, John O\u2019Brien, a principal of Strange Brew, had made claims about Tezos\u2019 progress. He wrote: \u201cThe applications of Tezos, ranging from derivatives settlement to micro-insurance, are real and recognized by industry giants. Ernst & Young, Deloitte, LexiFi, etc. have adopted Tezos in their development environments and labs.\u201d\nOn Oct. 3, a spokeswoman for the accounting firm Ernst & Young told Reuters: \u201cThe statement is not correct. EY has not adopted Tezos.\u201d A spokesman for Deloitte said Tezos\u2019 code is \u201cone of many technologies we\u2019re considering\u201d with blockchain, but it\u2019s \u201cstill early stage and we haven\u2019t used the technology for a client project.\u201d\nJean-Marc Eber, CEO of the French software company LexiFi, said, \u201cThe sentence, as stated, isn\u2019t accurate and unfortunately exaggerated, to say the least.\u201d While there had been \u201cinformal contacts,\u201d he said, \u201cat this stage, LexiFi has not adopted Tezos\u2019 technology in its development environment or labs.\u201d\nStrange Brew declined to answer questions about the statement.\nINVESTMENT OR DONATION?\nThe Tezos fundraiser began on July 1. The Breitmans had wide-ranging expectations about how much they might raise. A document on Tezos.com suggested that if they received more than $20 million, they might use it to \u201cnegotiate with a small nation-state\u201d to adopt Tezzies, or acquire mainstream print and TV media outlets to promote the technology. In June, Kathleen Breitman told Reuters that about a year ago, when the price of bitcoin was lower, \u201cwe were like, \u2018Hey, we would be lucky if we get 20 million.\u2019\u201d\nWhen it ended after 13 days, the project received about 66,000 bitcoins and 361,000 ethers, worth about $232 million at the time. The hoard is now worth about twice that.\nKathleen Breitman told Reuters that participating in the Tezos fundraiser was like contributing to a public television station and receiving \u201ca tote bag\u201d in return. \u201cThat\u2019s kind of the same thing here,\u201d she said.\nThe fundraiser\u2019s terms called the contributions \u201ca non-refundable donation\u201d and not a \u201cspeculative investment.\u201d\nIf deemed a donation, and not a security, the funds raised might not fall under the remit of financial regulators in the United States. In the U.S., investments in assets such as company shares and other securities are regulated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The SEC has been studying ICOs, and in July issued an investor bulletin that warned: \u201cDepending on the facts and circumstances of each individual ICO, the virtual coins or tokens that are offered or sold may be securities.\u201d\nPart of the SEC\u2019s assessment is to examine the reasonable expectations of participants in the ICO. Some participants in the Tezos fundraiser told Reuters they viewed the coins at least partly as an investment.\nKevin Zhou, co-founder of the cryptocurrency trading fund Galois Capital, said he invested about five bitcoins in Tezos, which he considers overall one of the better ICOs.\n\u201cFor me and for a lot of people this is an investment. We are looking for a return,\u201d Zhou said. \u201cI don\u2019t really care about\u201d using the Tezos technology, he added.\nDraper told Reuters that cryptocurrencies are commodities like pork bellies, and characterized acquiring Tezzies as a purchase rather than a donation. Asked this month how much he donated during the Tezos fundraiser, he replied via email, \u201cYou mean how much I bought? A lot.\u201d\n\u201cTOTAL MENSCH\u201d\nAt the moment, the Tezos Foundation holds all of the fundraising proceeds, while the Breitmans, through their Delaware company, control much of Tezos\u2019 intellectual property. The plan is for the foundation to acquire the Breitmans\u2019 company and release the technology under a free software license, according a \u201cTransparency Memo\u201d on the Tezos website.\nGevers, who founded the Tezos Foundation, said it has a contract that stipulates the Breitmans will either sell the Delaware company to the foundation \u201cwithin a reasonable point of time\u201d or, if they don\u2019t, \u201cthe foundation can take it.\u201d He declined to provide a copy of the contract.\nWhen the foundation will acquire the Breitmans\u2019 company remains unclear. Kathleen Breitman told Reuters in June, \u201cEssentially, you know, they\u2019re going to buy out the company in like July or so, I guess.\u201d\nThe Breitmans stand to receive millions of dollars if the deal goes through. According to the \u201cTransparency Memo,\u201d the new blockchain \u201cmust launch and operate successfully\u201d for three months, then DLS\u2019s shareholders \u2013 the Breitmans and Draper \u2013 are entitled to receive 8.5 percent of the fundraiser proceeds in cash. That amount, according to Gevers, is about $19.7 million. The shareholders also are slated to receive another 10 percent of the Tezzies issued, with the coin distribution spread out over four years. Those coins currently are worth about $140 million in futures trading.\nPrior to the fundraiser, Kathleen Breitman effused about Gevers, 52, a Zug-based South African entrepreneur who has never before run a foundation. During an \u201cAsk Me Anything\u201d session in May on an online chat channel, she posted: \u201cHe\u2019s awesome. Total mensch and very philosophically committed to our project.\u201d\nRelations later soured. The Breitmans objected to people the foundation suggested it wanted to hire, Gevers said. Another sticking point: The couple\u2019s company hasn\u2019t relinquished control over the foundation\u2019s own website, www.tezos.ch.\n\u201cThey control the foundation\u2019s domains, websites and email servers, so the foundation has no control or confidentiality in its own communications,\u201d Gevers said.\nThe Breitmans officially have no role at the Tezos Foundation. The letter from their lawyer this week proposed the creation of two foundation subsidiaries \u2013 Tezos AG and Tezos France SA \u2013 to develop and support Tezos, with the Breitmans serving as chief executive and chief technology officer of Tezos AG. The couple also would be given \u201cobserver status\u201d on the foundation board. The foundation would then \u201climit\u201d its activities to supervising and supporting the subsidiaries, \u201crather than conducting any direct operations.\u201d\nAccording to von Schnurbein, under Swiss law \u201cthe foundation is completely independent and the foundation board is completely independent.\u201d Gevers said the foundation wants the couple to continue playing a leading advisory role. \u201cThey are both very competent people and obviously they started this whole thing. And it would be stupid to exclude them.\u201d\nBut he added: \u201cYou can rest assured as long as I have anything to do with this, the foundation will be independent.\u201d\nGevers said he has filed a complaint with Swiss regulators about the request he received via email this week from the foundation\u2019s two other board members that he step down from the board for a month. A spokesman for Switzerland\u2019s Federal Department of Home Affairs, which oversees the agency that supervises foundations, told Reuters that asking a board member to step aside must be done at a board meeting, not via email. The two board members who emailed Gevers didn\u2019t respond to a request for comment.\nAs for the hundreds of millions of dollars\u2019 worth of cryptocurrencies raised in the ICO, Gevers said the foundation has slowly begun selling the virtual currencies \u2013 lately about $10.2 million worth a week \u2013 and plans to invest the proceeds in a diverse portfolio. The funds are intended to be used to run the foundation, ensure Tezos works and help to develop products using the technology.\nSo where are all the bitcoins and ethers raised in the ICO stored? That, Gevers said, was confidential.\n\u201cThese are not held in any one place,\u201d he said, \u201cbut secured through high-security\u201d digital wallets \u201cthat no single party has control over.\u201d (Anna Irrera reported from New York, Steve Stecklow from London and Zug, and Brenna Hughes Neghaiwi from Zug; Additional reporting by Jemima Kelly in London; Editing by Richard Woods and Michael Williams)",

Just For Key Stage 2\nAll of our activity sessions are carefully planned in such a way that 7 to 11 year olds can experience challenging adventures that are appropriate to their abilities and their stage of personal and physical development.\nClimbing sessions take place on purpose-designed walls that are no more than 9 metres in height, to provide an experience that is challenging, without being overwhelming.\nTeamwork activities are brought to life by the imaginative stories that our instructors tell, to capture the interest and enthusiasm of junior age children.\nCanoeing takes place on shallow sheltered water, with the bank always within easy reach and a qualified group leader close at hand.\nAll our energy is directed into offering the best possible experience for Key Stage Two groups, with courses designed to help children develop and really benefit from their time away.\nWe select staff who are good with and want to work with this age group. Activities take place within environments designed on a safety first basis\nand tailored to the needs of this age group, whilst still ensuring a good level of challenge. We employ staff who are making a definite choice to work with this age group and who have an enthusiasm and talent for working with this age group.\nOur themed problem solving sessions, including \u2018Piranha Pool\u2019, \u2018Quest\u2019 and \u2018The Dungeon\u2019 are ideal for this age group. Each of these sessions captures the imagination of the children, generating excitement and enthusiasm to solve the problems and complete the task. Teams of Robinwood staff design the problems, working within the overall theme of the session.\nGroup leaders tell great stories to bring things to life, but at the same time are focussed on the best approach with open questioning and suitable prompts when needed to ensure that everyone gains the most they can, developing teamwork and problem solving skills in particular.\nThe fact that we focus exclusively on key stage two, also means that there will be no secondary school groups on centre when your course takes place. We do know from schools who have previously visited other centres, that having groups\nof teenagers at these centres at the same time can on occasions create some issues. Safety, Enjoyment and Learning are our priorities, in that order.\nRobinwood courses are adapted for different year groups\nOur courses are suitable for the whole of Key Stage Two. Although the majority of groups are years 5 and 6, we also get a significant number of year 3 and year 4 children.\nFor year 3 and year 4 groups choosing our three day course, we have adapted our timetable, with some variations to activity sessions, with the possibility of earlier bedtimes and a bit more time available at different intervals throughout the course.\nThere is a meeting scheduled right at the start of each Robinwood course, for teachers accompanying the group to get together with their Robinwood course leader. At this meeting arrangements can be made for any little variations that will help ensure the success of your course and in particular any changes to accommodate groups of younger children.\n\"A fantastic time as usual. Glad we came earlier in the year so that school can see the impact our visit has had. We are already seeing a change in our children's learning and motivation. Thank you to all staff.\"\nCawthorne Church of England VC Primary School, Barnsley",

        "raw_content": "Senior Managers and Certification Regime: Major changes...\nU.S. Department of Justice Announces Expanded Criminal Trade Secrets Enforcement Targeting China\nOn Thursday, U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions ordered the creation of a \u201cChina Initiative\u201d expanding and accelerating U.S. criminal trade secrets enforcement against Chinese companies and individuals. The remarks announcing the China Initiative are notable for their singular focus on China and the severity of their language describing alleged Chinese theft of U.S. companies\u2019 trade secrets. In the same remarks, Sessions announced an indictment against Chinese and Taiwanese companies and individuals alleging theft of trade secrets from Micron Technology, Inc., an Idaho-based company that develops and manufactures dynamic random access memory (DRAM). The indictment is the latest in a growing line of criminal trade secrets cases focused on China. It is essential that potential targets of these efforts\u2014including Chinese companies, their U.S. affiliates, and U.S. investors in Chinese companies\u2014prepare for this enforcement environment. At a minimum, companies should design and implement robust policies and procedures focused on respecting third-party trade secrets, and promptly and thoroughly investigate potential violations.\nSenior Managers and Certification Regime: Major changes on the horizon\nTime to Read: 7 minutes Practices: Government Enforcement\nFrom 9 December 2019, all FCA solo regulated firms, as well as EEA and third country branches will be subject to the Senior Managers and Certification Regime (\u201cSMCR\u201d) which will replace the current Approved Persons Regime (\u201cAPR\u201d).\nThe SMCR aims to:\n- make individuals more accountable for their conduct and competence;\n- encourage staff at all levels to take personal responsibility for their actions;\n- ensure firms and staff clearly understand and can demonstrate where responsibility lies.\nSenior Managers will continue to be approved by the FCA. Employees that are not Senior Managers but are carrying out functions that could pose a risk of significant harm to the firm or its customers (\u201cCertified Functions\u201d) will now be assessed as fit and proper by the firm.\nAlmost all staff (including those who are not Senior Managers or Certified Function holders) will be subject to the FCA\u2019s Conduct Rules.\nFirms will be required to provide the FCA with a clearer picture of individuals\u2019 responsibilities, which will establish a clear road map for enforcement action (and potentially significant fines and other sanctions) against individuals.\nFirms will also have new obligations to ascertain, certify and monitor the fitness and propriety of their staff on an ongoing basis, provide training to staff and hold their staff to high standards of personal conduct.\nPartners in private equity firms will also need to consider the conversion to SMF27 and how the Certification Regime applies to staff more widely, particularly given existing CF4s (who may not necessarily be considered SMF27 under the SMCR), are not \u201cemployees\u201d under the certification regime. Responsibility mapping will be ever more important as PE firms and partnerships implement the SMCR rules. The changes may involve (amongst other things) amendments to employment contracts or the signing of side letters to reflect the importance of competent performance of the responsibilities outlined (as explained further below).\nWhat do firms need to do?\nFirms need to act promptly to identify individuals who will act as Senior Managers and the responsibilities that will be assigned to those individuals.\nReview activities in all jurisdictions and the influence exerted by individuals in other group entities (who may sometimes be located overseas).\nIdentify staff members which need to be certified as fit and proper and put in place appropriate mechanisms to conduct certification assessments.\nProvide training to staff on their obligations under the FCA\u2019s \u201cConduct Rules\u201d.\nWhich firms are impacted?\nAll firms currently authorised by the FCA but not yet captured by the SMCR rules (\"solo-regulated firms\") and EEA and third country branches of all FCA regulated firms will be impacted by the extended SMCR. Firms will fall into one of three categories:\n\u201cLimited Scope\u201d firms \u2013 Firms currently subject to a limited version of APR including some consumer credit firms and insurance intermediaries, sole traders, oil and energy market participants, and internally managed alternative investment funds.\n\u201cCore\u201d firms \u2013 Firms with permission to carry on regulated activities will fall within this category (unless they are Limited Scope or Enhanced firms).\n\u201cEnhanced\u201d firms \u2013 Firms meeting one or more of the following criteria:\nSignificant IFPRU firms;\nCASS Large Firms;\nFirms with Assets under Management of \u00a350 billion or more (calculated as a three-year rolling average);\nFirms with current total intermediary regulated business revenue of \u00a335 million or more per annum (calculated as a three-year rolling average);\nFirms with annual revenue generated by regulated consumer credit lending of \u00a3100 million or more (calculated as a three-year rolling average); or\nMortgage lenders and administrators (that are not banks) with 10,000 or more regulated mortgages outstanding.\nAre any firms exempt?\nThe extended SMCR will not apply to payment services firms or incoming EEA firms that only provide cross-border services, since they will be subject to their own local requirements.\nA different version of the SMCR is already in place with respect to banks, insurers and insurance branches.\nWhat will be required of firms?\nThe table below summarises the requirements on firms. Many of these arrangements may already be in place, and while firms (and the individuals within them) will in many cases be familiar with equivalent requirements under the APR, there are some significant new requirements and challenges associated with applying the SMCR. For example, although it may be apparent who a firm\u2019s Senior Managers are, the boundaries between their respective responsibilities may be less clear. In some cases, firms may find that individuals based in other group entities and/or outside the UK now need to be approved as Senior Managers.\nCareful judgement will also be required when deciding whether individuals fall within the SMCR\u2019s Certification requirements. One particular challenge is identifying individuals who are based outside the UK and/or who may be \u201cemployed\u201d by a completely separate legal entity for contractual purposes whilst dealing with clients in the UK. Once individuals requiring certification are identified, firms will need to implement systems enabling them to assess fitness and propriety at least annually.\nPlease click here to see a summary table of requirements.\nWhat will be required of Senior Managers?\nSenior Managers are subject to a \u201cDuty of Responsibility\u201d. In practice, this means that they may be held accountable (and may be subject to enforcement action and a penalty) if they are found by the FCA not to have taken \u201creasonable steps\u201d to prevent or stop the firm breaching regulatory requirements in their area(s) of responsibility. What \u201creasonable steps\u201d are considered to be will vary between firms, roles and individuals. Following a long debate, the FCA recently confirmed that the heads of legal functions within firms will not require approval as Senior Managers (unless they also occupy another Senior Management Function) which will come as a relief for in house counsel.\nThe FCA does not seek to prescribe what Senior Managers must do in order to discharge their duty. A key part of the implementation process for firms already subject to the SMCR has been engaging early with individual Senior Managers, to encourage them to give thought to how they make (and, at least as importantly, record) key decisions.\nIn addition to the FCA Handbook\u2019s Conduct Rules, which will apply to all individuals performing tasks relating to the carrying on of regulated activities (in practice ruling out only ancillary staff such as cleaning, catering and security staff), Senior Managers have to comply with additional Conduct Rules. These are similar to those currently in place under the APR, with the important addition of a specific rule requiring Senior Managers to delegate effectively\u2014a theme that has featured prominently in previous enforcement action pursued by the FCA.\nWhat should firms do to prepare for the SMCR?\nThe FCA\u2019s near final rules on the SMCR require approval by HM Treasury, so the 9 December 2019 implementation date is still subject to final confirmation.\nThe FCA will allow transitional periods for firms to put in place arrangements to comply with the extended SMCR. Specifically, firms will have 12 months to certify staff for the first time, although they will need to identify staff requiring certification by the implementation date. Firms must also train all Senior Managers and Certified Function holders on the FCA\u2019s Conduct Rules (and Senior Manager Conduct Rules if applicable) by the implementation date, although they will have 12 months to train other staff.\nThe FCA has indicated that firms have until one week prior to the implementation date to submit regulatory forms and supporting documentation. This date may currently appear as a speck on the horizon (particularly given much more immediate issues presented by Brexit and other upcoming regulatory changes ), but for many firms, substantial preparatory work will be required to identify Senior Managers and Certified Function holder populations and finalise, and in some cases negotiate, Statements of Responsibilities. Firms may wish to use the arrival of the extended SMCR as an opportunity to review and refine their governance arrangements, which may require more involved planning and revisions to key employment and/or corporate documents. With the significant expected work involved for many firms, we advise firms to begin work on their implementation plans as early as possible.\nRopes & Gray are hosting a series of training/breakfast roundtables with clients to discuss the challenges of SMCR implementation and lessons learned from the banks\u2019 experience of implementation.

        "raw_content": "This article is part of our Yahoo DFS Baseball series.\nFall is here, even if it hasn't felt like it in some parts of the country. Why not stay in your nice, warm home and watch a day's worth of baseball? Sunday brings up the usual 15 MLB games, starting at 1:05 PM ET. Here are some recommendations for your daily fantasy lineup.\nHyun-Jin Ryu, LAD vs. SD ($43): Ryu missed a chunk of the season, but the Dodgers are glad to have him healthy down the stretch. He's posted a 2.18 ERA through 13 starts while striking out 9.98 batters per nine innings. He shouldn't be too bothered by a Padres team with a league-worst .235 team batting average.\nMiles Mikolas, STL vs. SF ($40): Mikolas' return from Japan has gone about as well as possible. He comes in with a 3.01 ERA \u2013 and an even more impressive 2.23 ERA at home \u2013 while the Giants have been scuffling offensively, currently ranking 29th in runs scored.\n[Join a Yahoo Daily Fantasy Baseball contest or league today]\nSalvador Perez, KC at DET ($18): Perez is having arguably his worst season at the plate, and yet still has hit 26 homers in 123 contests. Daniel Norris has barely pitched this year for the Tigers, but has registered a 5.71 ERA when on the mound \u2013 which would make this his second straight season with an ERA over 5.00. He's also allowed 1.56 homers per nine innings, so Perez could add to that home run total Sunday.\nMatt Olson, OAK vs. MIN ($17): Olson has hit righties quite well, with a .490 slugging percentage and 23 homers against them. Meanwhile, Kyle Gibson has allowed a .269 batting average against lefties like Olson, and since 2016, Gibson's BAA versus southpaws is .297. This matchup is clearly in favor of the A's first baseman.\nScooter Gennett, CIN at MIA ($18): Gennett has been a solid hitter for any position, but has been truly impressive for a second baseman. In addition to his .316 batting average, he sports a .364 OBP and has hit 23 homers. Trevor Richards has had a forgettable rookie campaign for the Marlins with a 4.95 ERA.\nMatt Duffy, TAM at TOR ($16): Duffy doesn't hit homers, but he gets on base with gusto, as his season .361 OBP will indicate. The 27-year-old has even improved recently, with the OBP up to .414 over his last 25 games. Ryan Borucki has been less hot for the Blue Jays, with a 4.36 ERA over his last 12 starts.\nDidi Gregorius, NYY vs. BAL ($24): Gregorius has put his cold streak from the middle of the season behind him, with a 1.054 OPS over the last 21 days. He's also been good at home all year, sporting a .957 OPS at Yankee Stadium. Alex Cobb, who has been dealing with a finger issue, will be getting the start for Baltimore and enters with a 4.83 FIP.\nMitch Haniger, SEA at TEX ($22): Haniger has actually built upon his breakout 2017 season, slashing .287/.369/.502. His power has been slightly hindered by Safeco Field, but fortunately this game is at Texas' offense-friendly ballpark. Martin Perez has been inserted back into the starting rotation for the Rangers, which is a bit odd given that he's struggled to a 6.33 ERA and has allowed 1.81 homers per nine innings.\nAndrew Benintendi, BOS at CLE ($14): Benintendi is primed to take advantage of the fact the Indians are trying to rest their pitchers for the playoffs. Adam Plutko and his 5.96 FIP is starting for Cleveland. He's also allowed a whopping .338 batting average to lefties, and the southpaw Benintendi comes in with a .878 OPS versus righties.\nChris Taylor, LAD vs. SD ($11): Taylor will likely draw into the lineup for the Dodgers, considering he's an outfielder who is actually capable of hitting lefties. He's also been decidedly better at home, which is another reason for the 28-year-old to play. Lefty Joey Lucchesi has a 4.09 ERA and has allowed 1.35 home runs per nine innings, despite the fact he pitches his home games at Petco Park.\nChris Morgan @ChrisXMorgan\nChris Morgan is a writer of sports, pop culture, and humor articles, a book author, a podcaster, and a fan of all Detroit sports teams.",

        "raw_content": "'Bullet' song by folksinger Gray Hawke has me humming\nI've been walking around this week humming a song about a Royal Enfield Bullet.\nThe song is \"Bullet\" by British folksinger Gray Hawke. You can listen to it on his MySpace page.\nThe lyrics are terrific, summing up so much of what is special about the Royal Enfield Bullet \u2014 from it being a survivor from a time of black-and-white to the way it takes away my worries every time I feel that engine run.\n\"And She's Made Like a Gun.\"\nThe song was pointed out to me by Mike, a reader who knows more about music than I do. He wrote:\n\"As a lifelong rider and musician I found a story inside that song that stirred the musician to write the lyrics, the music, and perform it. A song heartfelt, is always worth listening to.\"\nGray Hawke himself explained on MySpace in 2010 that his inspiration for the song came from purchase of a \"black and chrome\" Royal Enfield:\n\"I got a wonderful motorcycle... a Royal Enfield Bullet 500efi DL... As with most truly life-changing experiences, it had to have a song. I'd written a lyric, found what I think is a really catchy chorus and got a rhythm and feel for the song nailed... but I was really struggling to find a tune and structure for the verses.\nSinger Gray Hawke.\n\"Anyway, I decided to give it another bash... and finally got something that worked. A bit quirky and asymmetrical \u2014 also quite difficult to remember! As I was already planning to go to Commonfolk... I gave the new song a run out in front of an audience \u2014 the first time I've ever finished and performed a song on the same day.\n\"It went pretty well \u2014 a few very positive comments from audience members afterwards, even though it was obviously a bit rough. Definitely one to polish up.\"\n\"Bullet\" is now one of six original songs on his CD \"A Place to Live,\" produced as a benefit for the Claire House Children's Hospice in the UK.\nI enjoy the other songs on the CD almost as much as I like \"Bullet.\"\n\"This Town\" is a perfect companion, as it addresses the lack of history in modern cities. It's catchy, too, and will be running through my helmet as I ride around my home town in South Florida, believe me.\nAnother, \"Paranoid Adenoid\" is one of those funny songs that shouldn't work but does: about having your tonsils out! \"We were useless and accessible; no wonder we were paranoid.\"\nThe others are \"Zanzibar,\" \"Folk Song Girls,\" and \"What's Gonna Happen?\"\nI wrote a fan letter to Gray Hawke, who responded: \"I still have the Bullet \u2014 called Geraldine \u2014 and ride it whenever I can. It gets lots of positive comments, mostly along the lines of 'my Dad used to have one of those' or similar.\n\"As for the song \u2014 yes, I perform it regularly in folk clubs around the UK. There's quite a big overlap between people who enjoy acoustic music and people who enjoy motorbikes so it usually goes down well.\"\nHe offered to mail the CD of \"A Place to Live\" to any reader who emails him at grayhawke619@gmail.com Payment is $10, including postage, with proceeds benefiting Claire House.\nAccording to the liner notes, Claire House, a hospice for children in Merseyside, Cheshire, North Wales and the Isle of Man \"provides a home from home environment for children and young adults with life shortening conditions... It is not a sad place; it is a place for living and provides an opportunity for children to enjoy fun, laughter, love and support.\"\nSounds like a worthy cause.\nGray Hawke and Geraldine.\nLabels: Bullet song\nHer Majesty's Thunder August 1, 2011 at 9:31 AM\nWOW!! That song has a brilliantly authentic 60s Garfunkel sound. I'll be ordering.",

        "raw_content": "92-year-old Texas woman denied photo ID to vote: \"Not to be able to vote breaks my heart\"\nWant another reason to abhor idiotic voter ID laws? Texas A.G. Greg Abbott just gave you one (UPDATED)\nThis post originally appeared on The BRAD BLOG.\nUpdate, 5/22/14, 12:15 p.m.: After receiving lots of media coverage and yet another ride to the Dept. of Public Safety, the state of Texas has finally found a way to allow Barber a Photo ID for voting this year. As reported by the Waco Trib...\nDespite the lack of a birth certificate, the state was able to verify Barber\u2019s citizenship by finding her birthday in a U.S. census taken in the 1940s, [Barber's son, Jimmy] Denton said. She also showed her Social Security card, two utility bills and her Medicare card.\nNow, if we can just get national media coverage for each and every one of the hundreds of thousands of registered voters who still don't have the requisite Photo ID now needed to vote under the Texas law. Or, as in the case with the Republican nominee for Governor in Arkansas during Tuesday's primary, perhaps we can just hire each one of those otherwise legal voters a staffer to take care of the problem.\nHere is just one more of the hundreds of thousands of reasons that have led the U.S. Department of Justice to file suit against Texas Republicans' polling place photo ID restriction law.\nThe same law had been previously blocked by the DOJ and again by a federal court under the federal Voting Rights Act, after the state's own data showed the law discriminated against racial minorities and others, while failing to deter actual voter fraud in the state.\nBut, literally minutes after SCOTUS gutted the heart of the Voting Rights Act last summer, the section that was used to strike down the law previously, Texas Republicans announced their intention to reenact the law that, of course, they knew to be discriminatory.\nAs the Waco Tribune reports, 92-year old Ruby Barber has tried, but has so far failed, to obtain one of those so-called \"free\" photo IDs from the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS), now that one is required for her to cast her legal vote this year, as she has for decades, until now, without a problem.\nBarber's story is heartbreaking and maddening but, unfortunately, probably not entirely rare. The DOJ estimated, based on the state's supplied data when the federal agency blocked the law in 2012, \"the total number of registered voters [in Texas] who lack a driver's license or personal identification card issued by DPS could range from 603,892 to 795,955.\"\nBarber's driver's license expired in 2010 and she's now having difficulty locating \"her nearly century-old birth certificate that she'd need to obtain a voter ID under a new state law.\" As the New York Daily News reports, the details of Barber's story and her fight to try and cast her vote are simply absurd.\nA frail 92-year-old woman is the latest victim of new voter identification laws sweeping across the U.S.\nRuby Barber, a senior citizen in the small town of Bellmead, Texas, has been unable to vote because she can't find her nearly century-old birth certificate that she'd need to obtain a voter ID under a new state law.\n\"I'm sure (my birth) was never reported because I was born in a farmhouse with a coal oil lamp,\" Barber, 92, told the Waco (Texas) Tribune. \"Didn't have a doctor, just a neighbor woman come in and (delivered) me.\"\nBarber visited the state's Department of Public Safety office last week to request the newly required election identification certificate, but was declined after she didn't have a birth certificate.\nUnder Texas's new strict voter ID law, enacted in June 2013, all voters must show one of six forms of valid photo identification - including a driver's license, a passport, a military ID or concealed gun permit - to be able to vote.\nThose who lack a valid photo ID, can apply for an election identification certificate (EIC) - a process that requires a birth certificate or other proof of citizenship.\nBarber, unfortunately, no longer has any of the documents she'd need to obtain a ballot.\nAccording to the Tribune, her driver's license expired in 2010 and her marriage license was lost in a 1992 house fire.\nShe took her Medicare card, Social Security card and expired driver's license to state officials when she sought her EIC, but agency staff insisted she needed to provide a birth certificate.\n\"I've voted all my life, and not to be able to vote, it just breaks my heart,\" Barber said of the possibility that she may not able to vote in this year's Texas gubernatorial election - expected to be a close race between Republican Greg Abbott and Democrat Wendy Davis.\nThanks to the publicity, perhaps Barber will finally, somehow, be able to get the state-issued photo ID she now needs to vote. Maybe. Similar publicity helped 90-year-old Texan and former Democratic Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives Jim Wright obtain a photo ID for voting late last year after he also failed to obtain one initially.\nThe untold numbers of once-legal voters who don't receive a profile in the local papers, however, are a different story.\nAnd, of course, the next paragraph of the Daily News story illustrates that Republicans are, indeed, hitting their target with their voter suppression law:\n\"I want to see a Democrat win,\" she told the Tribune. \"My daddy was a Democrat to the end of his life ... and he said, 'Don't none of you kids ever vote for a Republican.' And I never have.\"\nIf it's left up to Republicans, she'll never vote for anyone ever again.\nIt's little coincidence that Texas Republican Attorney General Greg Abbott is both defending the law on behalf of the state and running for governor this year. It's also no coincidence that he's shown himself more than happy to defraud the public when it comes to lying about the real reasons the GOP has worked so hard for so long to implement these new voting restrictions in the Lone Star State and elsewhere.\nWe'll hope the BRAD BLOG's legal analyst Ernie Canning is right in his belief that the Texas law is likely to be nixed again in the pending federal case (There are also similar federal challenges pending in both North Carolina and Arkansas.) If the recent federal ruling that decimated Wisconsin's nearly-identical GOP law is any indication, perhaps Barber and all legally registered voters who wish to vote this year will get to do so in November after all. But it's going to be an ugly bunch of months between now and then.\nDemocracy Editor's Picks Elderly People Greg Abbott Jim Wright Justice Department Photo Id Texas Voter Id Voting",

        "raw_content": "An Ocean Of Tears - go to homepage\nAge at onset: about 12 months\nEarly signs and symptoms: Continuous hair loss with spotty regrowth\nHow the diagnosis was made?: Skin punch biopsy and dermatology consult\nMy Samoyed had just finished his championship when he was diagnosed with Sebaceous Adenitis (SA), a heartbreaking and dreadful disease. He was only a year old and the Dermatologist said he had a severe case.\nBefore SA diagnosis, about 9 months old\nI was shocked to discover that Samoyeds ranked behind Poodles and Akitas in the incidence of SA and may rank higher as it is often misdiagnosed.\nWe decided to treat with a cyclosporine (Atopica) and with weekly oil baths of propylene glycol oil followed by Sebalyt shampoo. This type of oil must remain on the skin for 8 hours, so the recommendation was to do it at night, crate my Samoyed, and bathe him in the morning. The oil is expensive and can only be found in pharmacies that compound medicine, the big chains don\u2019t carry it. The oil rinses out easily with tepid water. I have tried other oils, but don\u2019t like them nearly as well nor do I think they do as good a job on the skin.\nThe Dermatologist was not sure how much hair would regrow, but thought we would have a good idea in about 18 months.\nAfter SA diagnosis, 3 1/2 years old\nAfter 24 months, there wasn\u2019t any significant hair regrowth, so he was taken off the cyclosporine. The oil baths continued and will continue for the rest of his life.\nWith SA, it is important to realize that each dog\u2019s case is different. Each dog\u2019s case presents differently, therefore, without a skin punch biopsy, misdiagnoses may occur. SA also waxes and wanes, and what works for one dog may not work for another.\nSA is presumed to be inherited, but no one is sure what causes it to become active. It normally rears its ugly head when a dog is older, but that was not the case with my dog. At one point, he was also refusing most foods and dropped half of his body weight.\nTo be honest, I did consider putting him to sleep. If your dog has been newly diagnosed, I recommend taking a deep breath and not making any hasty decisions. It is still the same dog who loves you unconditionally and deserves the same in return.\nMy Samoyed is now 4 years old and is doing well, but had had a few setbacks. His treatment currently consist of the weekly oil baths, a fish based diet, fish oil pills twice daily and twice month acupuncture treatment which I believe have helped immensely. He also continues to visit the Dermatologist quarterly.\nIt is possible to live with a dog with SA. You will shed an ocean of tears, your Samoyed will no longer be beautiful on the outside and people may make cruel, unthinking remarks upon seeing him. On the other hand, you and your dog share a special bond. You will never regret the extra care, time and effort, and yes money spent on his care.\nRemember, you are not alone and others will reach out to help you if asked.\nFebruary, 2009 update - The most recent addition to his treatment regimen is that one to two days after his bath, I am applying two pipettes of Douxo Seborrhea Spot-On. We are now using Douxo shampoo. If this combination works, there is a chance we may be able to stop the oil treatments. I\u2019m keeping my fingers crossed and will keep you posted.",

        "raw_content": "Pregnancy Problems \ufeff\nMy pregnancy journey began on April 7, 2009, when I found out I was pregnant. I had gone to the doctor's that day because my period was quite absent and after an inconclusive pregnancy test, I wanted to know what was going on. I remember the physician's assistant asking me what my problem was and I said, \"I think I have a UTI.\" She said that I did. I said \"I also think I could be pregnant.\" She confirmed that I was. I was excited. It was so hard that night to not blurt it out to my parents when I was wishing them Happy Anniversary.\nMuch of my pregnancy was normal. I felt sick and needed to eat every few hours. I was so tired I would take naps.\nMy pregnancy became complicated and high-risk in September when I ended up in the ER with a severe UTI and was found to be in preterm labor. After that, my pregnancy was full of tests and a surgical intervention to place stents because they believed there was a kidney stone trapped. Then, I spent time in and out of the OB with wacky liver enzymes and all sorts of issues. I was referred to Magee Women\u2019s Hospital in Pittsburgh for a consult, as doctors believed I had cholestasis. I did not, but I still needed a C-section to deliver Sarah, as I developed preeclampsia.\nSarah came into the world screaming.",

He was exposed to brake pads and linings containing asbestos that were manufactured by Bendix, a predecessor to Honeywell. Phillips was diagnosed with malignant pleural mesothelioma in March 2012. Despite treatment, he died one year later. He left behind a wife of 41 years, five children, and 14 grandchildren.\nThe lawsuit was originally filed in May 2012 in Alameda County, but was transferred to Fresno at the defendants\u2019 request. After a two-week trial, jurors deliberated for six days. They found Bendix/Honeywell liable for 30% of the claim, awarding $7.4 million in compensation and $3.5 million in punitive damages. This is the first time a jury in Fresno has awarded damages in a mesothelioma lawsuit.\nMesothelioma is an aggressive cancer that is primarily caused by exposure to asbestos, a mineral fiber that is found in a variety of products to provide fire-resistance, insulation, and strength. Mesothelioma grows in the lungs, chest lining, and abdominal cavity.\nThe disease primarily affects people who inhaled large amounts of asbestos over a long period of time. Symptoms typically appear 20-30 years after exposure. Most people who are exposed to small amounts of asbestos are not at risk. However, secondhand exposure to asbestos (for example, on the work clothes of a loved one) has been linked to cases of mesothelioma.\nDo I have a Mesothelioma Lawsuit?\nThe Schmidt Firm, PLLC is currently accepting asbestos induced injury cases in all 50 states.

        "raw_content": "Boyle Heights tenants fight double-digit rent increases in latest housing battle\nIn Boyle Heights, Francisco Gonzalez is working with other tenants to fight double-digit rental rate increases.\nJosie Huang | March 27, 2017\nAn Uber driver by night, Francisco Gonzalez catches up on sleep during the day. But, lately, his waking hours have been spent fighting to stay in his Boyle Heights apartment building.\nOn April 1, rents in the 24-unit stucco building on East 2nd Street are going up by as much as 80 percent for half the tenants, including Gonzalez. With the help of housing advocates at Union de Vecinos, the tenants have been protesting the increases to the building's management company, Crescent Canyon Management in Culver City.\n\"We don't want to leave,\" said Gonzalez, who has lived in his apartment home for the last dozen years. \"This is our Boyle Heights.\"\nCrescent Canyon Management, which represents the new owners who bought the building in December, had no comment.\nThe battle over 1815 East Second St. is the latest skirmish over housing affordability in this largely Latino, working-class neighborhood. Recent years has seen Boyle Heights grow in popularity as a place to live. Its proximity to the Arts District \u2014 it's a mile away by bridge \u2014 is a draw for people priced out of other parts of Los Angeles.\n\"Ultimately, it's the housing crisis,\" said Mynor Godoy, president of the Boyle Heights Neighborhood Council. \"It\u2019s just become impossible to try and rent anywhere else in the city.\"\nIn February, real estate values in Boyle Heights grew at four times the rate of the city as a whole, according to Redfin.\nNeighborhood activists say that Gonzalez' building is only the latest to get hit with double-digit rental increases. But they say the number of people affected by rapid changes in the neighborhood would be even higher if not for city regulations that restrict the size of rent increases for older housing stock \u2014 those built before 1978.\nBut about 11 percent of Boyle Heights' apartment buildings are not quite old enough to fall under the rent controls, according to the office of City Council member Jos\u00e9 Huizar. That leaves potentially hundreds of residents vulnerable to the type of rent increases that Gonzalez and his neighbors are facing.\nEstala Robles has been living in one of the building's two-bedroom units with her family for the last six years, paying $1,175 a month. Her husband, a mariachi, is the family's sole provider and gets jobs by walking the few blocks to Mariachi Plaza.\nShe said they cannot afford to pay the extra $700 that the landlord is seeking \u2014 a 55 percent increase. \"It is terrible,\" Robles said. \"I can't eat, I can't sleep. My family can't afford it.\"\nRobles said she and the other tenants plan to wait it out until April 1 when the rents go up, and see what happens. She said her family has no other option.\nShould they have to move, they'll have trouble finding another affordable place in Boyle Heights, given the neighborhood's hot market. That's according to a real estate agent, Juven Zapata, who said that rents for market-rate apartments in the neighborhood are rising faster than home prices.\n\"They're not going to be able to afford to live here,\" Zapata said. \"That's the cold, hard truth.\"\nBoyle Heights tenants face eviction for unpaid rent hikes\nOutside of LA County cities, tenants want limits on higher rents\nLA considers tenant harassment crackdown\nCA lawmakers try again to tackle affordable housing\nApartment auctions hit LA's tight rental market\nCan't we just build homes, Orange County?",

        "raw_content": "Get your head on straight!\nThe Atlas Orthogonal (AO) technique is a highly specialized, very precise, and incredibly gentle method that requires NO twisting, popping, or cracking the neck or back. The atlas, or C1, is the first bone in the spine, and sits at the top of the neck, just under the skull. Orthogonal is an engineering term that means balanced at 90 degrees. When the atlas is misaligned, the head tilts, causing the rest of your body from the neck down to compensate, thus twisting and kinking the spine and everything below it. This causes the entire human frame to become imbalanced (see picture below). Board Certified AO chiropractors adjust the atlas to balance the head over the neck, for optimal biomechanical support. They use special x-rays which are analyzed with measurements and calculations that determine the extent and direction of spinal misalignment and how the adjustment will be administered. The Atlas Orthogonal Percussion Adjusting instrument produces a very light percussion wave that allows gentle correction to the vertebrae of the upper neck, and restores the atlas to its proper orthogonal position. For a motion x-ray film of an AO adjustment, click here.\nAn atlas misalignment, or subluxation, can have major health effects throughout the body, in addition to causing pain and postural abnormalities. Dr. Webb treats the whole patient, not just symptoms, and she starts by getting your head on straight.\nTo schedule a consult with Dr. Webb today, call (206)760-1448 or click below:\nAbout Dr. Webb\nDr. Webb earned her Bachelor\u2019s degree from the University of Texas at Austin in 2003. She attended Palmer College of Chiropractic in Davenport, Iowa, where she studied Activator, SOT, and Atlas Orthogonal Chiropractic, among other techniques. As president of the student Atlas Orthogonal Club, she was fortunate enough to get to know the technique\u2019s founder, the famous Dr. Roy Sweat. She graduated as a Doctor of Chiropractic and has been practicing for nine years.\nDr. Webb studied in Quebec, Canada, honing her Atlas Orthogonal and Activator techniques. After her graduation from Palmer, she worked as an intern for Dr. Roy Sweat in Atlanta, Georgia, before heading west. She became a Board Certified Atlas Orthogonist in 2009, and practiced in Kent, Washington for four years. She opened her current clinic at Revive Wellness Center in Seward Park in January 2013 with a passion to bring specialized upper cervical chiropractic care to South Seattle. She became certified in the Webster technique in 2017.\nFor more information on the other services available at Revive Wellness Center, go to www.ReviveWellnessSeattle.com.",

Un-American. Somebody said, \u2018treasonous.\u2019 I mean, yeah, I guess, why not? Can we call that treason? Why not? I mean, they certainly didn\u2019t seem to love our country very much.\u201d\nWhite House flacks later suggested he was only joking. But Trump\u2019s contempt for the courts and a free press (\u201cenemies of the American people\u201d), his talk about jailing his 2016 opponent Hillary Clinton and his expressed admiration for authoritarian leaders are not laughing matters.\nLet the record show that some of his lines \u2014 such as his introduction of heroes in the House Gallery \u2014 did receive widespread applause. Anyone who paid attention to past State of the Union addresses recognizes that the opposition party is always sparing in its applause. Just ask Barack Obama.\nJohn Diaz, editorial page editor",

        "raw_content": "By: Beth Garrison, Senior Consultant\nI have been thinking a lot as I finish my first term as a PhD student about my own personal mission and vision for my future. I want to make a difference in this world, to \u201csave the world with behavior analysis,\u201d as they say, but have no clue where to start. Thinking back on our own beginnings in the field, which began with B.F. Skinner\u2019s work, I realized, it starts with teaching.\nIn 1958, Skinner published \"Teaching Machines,\u201d in Science magazine after being inspired by observing his daughter\u2019s math class in 1953, to where he did not observe individualized learning, nor immediate reinforcement for correct responding (Barrett, 2002). It was here that one of his great, but not well-known work started in The Technology of Teaching (Skinner, 1968). Skinner envisioned a world where learners could learn at their own pace, and receive immediate feedback on work. Unfortunately, he never saw this vision turn to reality, and in 1993, right before he died, he stated in personal correspondence, \u201cI think education is the greatest disappointment of my life (Barrett, 2002, p. 42).\u201d\nThinking on this today, I thought about my own personal mission and vision to \u201csave the world with behavior analysis,\u201d and realized that we may be able to do so by teaching others. As teachers, supervisors, and mentors of aspiring behavior analysts, and also the people we support through our field, we are leaving a legacy\u2026.but \u201cwith that power comes great responsibility.\u201d Though we are the generation making contributions to the field of behavior analysis and beyond (social justice, business, education, psychology, social work, diversity, machine learning, and politics), we are also shaping the behavior of those who will come after us, who will continue our work when we are gone.\nIt is in teaching others that we may leave our greatest legacy, and in doing so, save the world with behavior analysis.\nBarret, B.H.

        "raw_content": "LOVE vs HATE...\n\"Compelling\" Business Commandment...\"Love Knocks Out Hate\".\nDNA=LOVE\nDo what you love, and love what you do! If you truely wake up everyday with the burning desire to work toward & achieve what you love in life, then you already have the main ingredient for the recipe of success & happiness. L.O.V.E...can be THE most powerful of all human emotions if one focuses on expressing that power. Mix in the flavors of passion, determination, persistence, confidence, appreciation & gratitude, and you have an unstoppable, potent gumbo of power. Like Marc says, we all can be a bunch of \"emotional bitches\". Harness the power of love and make it the driving force behind all you do. Allow the love for what you enjoy doing, to knockout anything you hate doing. Let the love in your life over shadow the hate. That is the \"guts\" of my brand...Real Street Tees. Love KO's Hate.\nThe inspriation for the \"Love KO's Hate\" commandment comes from a Spike Lee Joint called \"Do The Right Thing\". There's a scene in the movie where Spike Lee's character \"Mookie\" is given a lesson of the story \"Right Hand vs. Left Hand, aka \"Good vs. Evil\", by Radio Raheem. I felt that this scene in particular was the crescendo and overall meaning behind the film. Peep this link to view the movie clip...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vOsb6crHook\nMy Guts to Skin Story...\nIn chapter 8 of Unlabel, Marc explains the importance of taking an emotional inventory. His exact words were \"either you're defined by the things you love, or you're defined by the things you hate\". Several years before the book Unlabel was written, I decided to live my life according to the \"Love vs. Hate\" philosophy. Everyday is a constant struggle towards fullfilling my life with all things love. But with the dedication to that mind set, it becomes easier to stay motivated to getting what I want in life. I identify with \"Mookie\", the main character in \"Do The Right Thing\" because he worked for a man who was a racist prick & he put up with racist shit from this guy because he had a family to provide for. That was his sacrifice. His love for his family (being the provider) outweighed the hate he had to experience everyday at his job. I too currently work in an industry (oil & gas) that is full of racist, alpha male, and pretentious pricks. But because I see the bigger picture, I sacrifice now so that my vision for the future will come to fruition. I put up with bullshit, & work long days, so that I can build my tee shirt company into a viable brand, and eventually own a full clothing line.\nSkin to the World...\nMarc mentions that \"perception isn't reality, reality is reality\"...I've always strived to be a proponent for keeping it 100, as we say in the streets. This belief is the foundation of which everything else is built upon during the pursuit of authenticity for myself & my brand, Real Street Tees. This is the underlying concept behind the brand name. When dealing with me whether in business or in personal life, people can always count on me to see things for what they are, and giving or accepting the truth. Essentially, my address is located on Real Street.\nReal Street Tees is an up & coming tee shirt line that is based in the Mile High City. Our design concepts are inspired by street lingo, pop-culture, & good vibes. We work to create designs that are unique, bold, conscious, original, and humorous. We pride ourselves in designing our concepts through a play on words & images for maximum impact of expression.\nLastly, I want to thank Marc Ekco and the Skillshare team for the opportunity to introduce myself and my brand to the world. I also want to thank the other classmates who shared their stories, ambitions, and creative stylings. I wish everyone of you the very best through your journey to authenticity.",

It is one of my favorites.\nBy Aaronlee5\nAbsolute Perfection!!!!!!!!!!!\nAn appropriate way to end a phenomenal career.\nBy jcbroadbent\nElton John has finally lost his voice, as demonstrated on \"The Captain and the Kid\" album, and even more notably on the live bonus tracks. It sounds like he's spitting up words on \"The Bridge\" and throughout the whole effort its clear that he's lost his range and is struggling just to project. I noticed that also on \"Songs From the West Coast\" but he seemed to bounce back on \"Peachtree Road\". He even looks old on the album cover. It's a good thing that this album sums up his career, because it probably should be his last. Elton is well into his 60s now and think about how many songs he's sung over the last 45+ years! As for the album itself, the standout tracks are Postcards from Richard Nixon, Wouldn't Have You Any Other Way (NYC), Tinderbox, And The House Fell Down. The rest of the album is, well... been there, done that. I do like that Bernie is on the FRONT cover this time around. Very appropriate, considering the nature of the album.\nBy michellenj\nListening to The Captain & The Kid is like listening to a poignant autobiographical book set to mellifluous music. I absolutely love this album (as did most critics) and I can't understand why it wasn't a chart topper. Every fan of Elton (and Bernie) should have this album in their collection and if they don't it can only be because they have not heard it. I think that the marketing of this album was it's only failure. It is a fantastic album with lyrics and music that truly tell an incredible tale of lasting friendship,struggles, wild success, sudden fame, egos and failures and everything in between. Tinderbox and The House Fell Down are standouts as are The Bridge and Postcards from Richard Nixon.\nBuy it for the live tracks\nBy ralevitt\nFIRST AND FOREMOST: I'm a fan. I love his music (*their* songs). Seen him live numerous times, including in 1976 at Dodger Stadium. Captain Fantastic remains one of my all time favorite records. THAT SAID: This is not Captain Fantastic. It's a tired, albeit skillful, and unfortunately unsuccessful attempt at recapturing something very special. THE SONGS: I dunno. I felt embarrassed listening to them. I kept thinking, \"Nice try, but big miss ...\" Lyrics that should have been visually rich were instead irrelevant or obvious. BT is the master of metaphor, of acute social observation and highly personal yet broadly meaningful emotional songwriting. But it sounded like he phoned this one in. I felt like the music lacked vitality. ON THE OTHER HAND: The live tracks are pretty much worth the cost of the record. Excellent, heated, committed, musical covers from CF. I've never heard him play those songs live and always wanted to hear them.\nBest since \"Goodbye Yellow Brick Road\"\nBy sundancemountain\nGreat album. Great title track. My big complaint is song order. The best song on the album is \"The Captain and the Kid,\" which is placed oddly at the end of the album, and next best songs, \"Blues Never Fade Away\" and \"I Must Have Lost It On The Wind\" are also towards the end. This album should have been better marketed, as it's Elton's best since \"Goodbye Yellow Brick Road.\" I love how the lyrics in the title track make reference to Elton's past albums. A lot of fun for fans. Thanks Elton and Bernie.\nBest sequel I've ever heard\nBy The Entertainer19627\nThis album is very, very good. It holds great songs, even by Elton's very high standards. \"Tinderbox\" is one of Elton's best. \"The Bridge\" was the hit from here and is also very good. One song that really pops out at me is \"Blues Never Fade Away.\" Other good songs are \"Wouldn't Have You Any Other Way\", \"And the House Fell Down\", and \"Just Like Noah's Ark.\"\nNot fantastic, just brown dirt\nBy DerekJager\nEver since THE BIG PICTURE, Eltons sales have been slipping along with songwriting ability. Rarely does he write any upbeat, snappy songs so each album seems dreary and each song sounds the same. After the awful PEACHTREE ROAD, he went waaay back to recapture some of the magic of CAPT. FANTASTIC...but this, too, is another disaster. I mean, why use the SAME melody on the title track to this CD as you did on the original? He just speeds things up but it's the same tune, just different lyrics. The best songs are \"Just Like Noah's Ark\" (which is a rewrite of \"Restless\"), \"And The House Fell Down\" \"Old `67\" and \"I Must Have Lost It\" and the title track. Slim pickings because the rest is just dreary.\nOmg Awesoem and Soulfull\nBy SpongeCakes\nGreat, Great, Great i love eltons voice how it is right now, a great and unique voice, i just cant wait to hear his upcoming album which is suppose to have snoop dog. my favorite song is Just like noah's ark, download you wont regreat it . peace and love\nA Fine Wine...Even Better with Age!!!!!\nBy B Casey\nElton John is as great today as he was in the 70's, 80's and 90's. I loved \"Peach Tree Road\" but this is a Master Piece written by Elton & Bernie...the Greatest duo of all time! All the songs are great but stand outs are \"Tinderbox\", Wouldn't Have it Any Other Way\", Blues Never Fade Away\" and \"The Captain & the Kid\". This is a must buy for any music fan.

But surprisingly enough, it has been around since 3000 BC, but in its original form, which was more fibrous and bitter, making its medicinal and even ornamental properties more valuable.\nIt\u2019s only in the 16th century in Holland that the \u2018modern\u2019 carrot emerged, following a crossbreeding between a red variety and a white one that resulted in a bright orange colour in honour of the Dutch royal family, the House of Orange. This new variety soon surpassed all the others and it is the most popular one today, although you do find a lot of maroon and purple varieties in the market now.\nFrom a nutritional point of view, the carrot is a real champion, as it is packed with vitamins and minerals, including precious vitamin A. Its dark colour signifies the presence of carotenoids, a family of antioxidants that helps in the prevention of cardiovascular diseases, certain types of cancers and certain degenerative illnesses associated with aging.\nRecipe suggestions with carrots:\nCheese-Topped Carrots and Parsnips\nCarrot Soup with Orange and Ginger\nOriginally published in the Journal de Montr\u00e9al on January 15, 2011.\n\u00ab Curry, an adventurous fragrance\nBroccoli Rabe, the flavour of Italy \u00bb",

        "raw_content": "Lidl UK has today announced the opening of its latest Regional Distribution Centre (RDC), located at iPort in Doncaster, providing a major boost to the local economy through the creation of hundreds of new jobs.\nThe warehouse, which represents a \u00a370m investment in Lidl\u2019s expansion and logistics, will initially provide support to 53 Lidl stores across South Yorkshire, Lincolnshire and the Midlands, with this number expected to grow.\nEarlier this month, Lidl opened a new store in neighbouring Rossington, and has plans to open two further stores, in Rotherham, Chesterfield, Nottingham and Mapplewell by the end of 2019.\nAt 58,000m\u00b2, the distribution centre is the supermarket\u2019s biggest to date, with 3,900 pallets of products projected to pass through the premises every day.\nTsvetelina Butrakova, Lidl UK Regional Director for Doncaster, said: \u201cWe\u2019re extremely excited to mark the start of the year with the opening of our Doncaster distribution centre, which plays an essential role in enabling us to meet growing customer demand for Lidl products.\n\u201cThe centre also underlines our commitment to creating more job opportunities, and I am so incredibly proud of the team that we have here in Doncaster and across our stores, whose hard work and dedication has enabled us to get where we are today\u201d.\nEmployees at the warehouse and store will benefit from an increase in pay, after the supermarket announced that it would once again match the voluntary Living Wage rate, as recommended by the Living Wage Foundation. The new salaries of \u00a39.00 per hour, increased from \u00a38.75, will come into effect from 1st March 2019 and will be 10% higher than the Government\u2019s \u2018National Living Wage\u2019. Employees will also receive a comprehensive benefits package including company pension scheme, employee discount and an enhanced holiday entitlement.\nLidl opened its first British-based RDC in 1994 in Lutterworth and currently has warehouses in 12 other locations up and down the country, including Southampton, Northfleet, Enfield, Belvedere, Bridgend, Livingston, Lutterworth, Avonmouth, Newton Aycliffe, Wednesbury, Exeter and Runcorn.\nThe warehouse is Lidl\u2019s third to open in the past two years, with plans for four further regional distribution centres to open by 2025, along with the relocation of its Livingston warehouse to Eurocentral, near Motherwell. The investment underlines the supermarket\u2019s commitment to the sustainable growth of the business, both in the region and across the rest of Great Britain.\nSince Lidl first opened its doors in the UK in 1994 it has been responding to growing customer demand, with an existing store portfolio of 740 and plans to open more than 50 new stores a year.\nThe new Lidl distribution centre",

First reported by Deadline, this unique crossover is helped in part due to CBS/Paramount owning both franchises.\n\"The reason the 'Star Trek' episode is so exciting for us is because this is the first time we\u2019ve ever incorporated a specific pop culture 'brand' into our show,\" said \"Let's Make a Deal\" executive producer Mike Richards. \"This is something we\u2019ve wanted to do for a long time and 'Star Trek: Discovery' was the perfect partner to start with.\" [What Makes a Star Trek Fan? Trekkies Speak Out]\n\"The Star Trek team was an absolute joy to work with. They gave us access to props, costumes, and a wealth of knowledge about the series,\" said Richards. \"On our end, the Let\u2019s Make a Deal' team had a great time coming up with deals that would fit into the Trek universe and adapting some of our current games to be played through a Star Trek lens. I think fans of both shows will really enjoy what we came up with, and it\u2019s definitely a type of special that we would love to do again in the future.\"\nWhen asked which \"Star Trek\" character would be the best \"Let's Make a Deal\" contestant, Richards made the arguement for James T. Kirk.\n\"Of all the Star Trek characters, I think Kirk would be the best at Let's Make a Deal. This game requires a solid gut instinct and quick decision making. . . two attributes that Kirk definitively has!\" Richards said. \"We would also love to watch Spock grapple with our show. There is nothing 'logical' about what we do, so listening to him try to reason through the decision points would be amazing.\"",

        "raw_content": "\u00ab Charlie Brown, Snoopy and the other crewmen of Apollo X | Main | Lunar Tools \u00bb\nThe trip to lunar orbit would take three days of coasting in deep space. Although the crew remained busy during the Translunar Coast (TLC) phase of their mission, there were down times between chores. The crew had a special creation from home to occupy them during lulls in the flight in the form of a contemporary popular music cassette tape that was recorded with the help of a friend.\nThe RCA cassette tape was recorded by Al Bishop, who was an employee of Boeing at the time. According to Gene Cernan, he and Al laid on the Al\u2019s living room floor and recorded all the songs onto the cassette. Gene and Al recorded several of the more popular musical artists of the day. Artists like Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin and The Brothers Four were included on the tape. Mr. Bishop chose songs like \"Fly Me to the Moon\", \"Going Back to Houston\" and \"Moonlight Serenade\" to provide a theme befitting a flight to the Moon. Gene had pretty good taste for the popular music of the time.\nBy the time Apollo 10 launched for it\u2019s rendezvous with the Moon, NASA had begun to realize that the agency had to do a better job of public relations concerning their task of placing humans on the Moon. The crew of Apollo 10 lead the way by pioneering the use of a color tv camera on their mission. They used props and they also used music. During the first public TV broadcast while on the way to the Moon, the crew showed TV images of the Earth. During the boardcast of those Earthly images, they took time to remind Mission Control of their real job. After Gene Cernan reminded the MOCR crew of their task, he switched on the cassette recorder and played Frank Sinatra's rendition of \u201cFly Me to the Moon.\u201d\nAfter their return to Earth, the Apollo X crew visited the command module, \"Charlie Brown\" while on the recovery aircraft carrier, USS Princeton. The following photograph shows Gene, John and Tom standing beside the command module hatch inside the hanger deck of the aircraft carrier. The image shows Gene carrying a clear plastic bag in his left hand. Inside the bag is the cassette tape.\nThe cassette tape can be more clearly seen in the enlargement, shown below, of the prior photograph.\nWhen the crew returned to Houston, they designed and had constructed a presentation plaque with the actual music cassette. Tom, John and Gene presented it to Al Bishop as gift of gratitude for providing them with some entertainment during their trip to the Moon. When Mr. Bishop passed away, his widow gave it back to Gene Cernan. Gene kept it in his collection for a number of years before parting with it himself.\nIn the photograph shown above, Gene is displaying the tape presentation while at his home in Texas.\nGene wrote a brief certification \"Flown on Apollo X\" on the reverse side of the presentation plaque. He signed the plaque using Eugene A. Cernan. Which indicates that Gene signed the artifact when he first started identifying his collection as he only uses Gene Cernan now. I learned that from Gene in December of 2005 during our visit together in Tucson.\nIn August of 2006, Gene told me that he and Al Bishop spent the afternoon lying on the floor of Al's living room recording all the music on this tape. The quality of the tape reflects that type of early private recording with miscues, skips and clicks that an older record album would make on a turntable. That is what makes the tape so good for historic purposes. These two men took the time to sit, choose and record music for a flight to the Moon.\nI was able to gently open the display and extract the tape from the display. After 37 years, the tape still functioned. The music was downloaded into my computer. A compact disk was burned of the music and presented to Gene for his listening pleasure.\nEvery once in a while I put on my copy of the CD and listen to Frank Sinatra sing \"Fly me to the Moon\" and know that in this particular case the song really did journey to the Moon.\nIt took sound time to track down the song titles and the artists, but a playlist of the song tracks has been put together.\n\"Going back to Houston\" performed by Dean Martin\n\"Fly me to the Moon\" performed by Frank Sinatra\n\"Come fly with Me\" performed by Frank Sinatra\n\"Up, Up and Away\" performed by Andy Williams\n\"Something Stupid\" performed by Frank and Nancy Sinatra\n\"Sentimental Journey\" performed by Acker Bilk\n\"Greensleeves\" performed by Acker Bilk\n\"Stranger on the Shore\" performed by Acket Bilk\n\"Welcome to my World\" performed by Dean Martin\n\"Little Old Wine Drinker Me\" performed by Dean Martin\n\"30 More Miles to San Diego\" performed by Dean Martin\n\"Moonriver\" (instrumental)\n\"Moonlight Serenade\" performed by Frank Sinatra\n\"When I fall in Love\" performed by Eartha Kitt\n\"Unforgettable\" performed by Eartha Kitt\n\"Green Fields\" performed by The Brothers Four\n\"Rock Island Line\" performed by The Brothers Four\n\"Summertime\" performed by The Brothers Four\n\"Oh Shenandoah\" performed by The Brothers Four\n\"A Very Good Year\" performed by The Brothers Four\n\"Honey Wind\" performed by The Brothers Four\n\"The Waves Roll Out\" performed by The Brothers Four\n\"It's Over\" performed by Dinah Shore\n\"Trains and Boats and Planes\" performed by Dinah Shore\n\"Days of Wine and Roses\" performed by Dinah Shore\n\"Oh Lonesome Me\" performed by Dinah Shore\n\"I Really Don't Want to Know\" performed by Dinah Shore\n\"Born to Lose\" performed by Dinah Shore\n\"Little White Lies\" performed by Dinah Shore\nMost of the individual artists had passed away prior to my research into their music, but I was able to get in touch with one of the remaining artists. As I was researching the musical pieces on the tape cassette I found three clarinet instrumentals towards the middle of the album. While the songs and arrangements were familiar, but I could not remember the musician's name at the time. While watching an \"infomercial\" about 1960s popular music, I found out that the clarinet player, composer and arranger of those melodies was a gentleman by the name of Acker Bilk. Mr. Bilk resided in England until he passed away in November, 2014 at age 85.\nI contacted Acker Bilk in 2005 via his website\nhttp://www.ackersmusicagency.co.uk/acker.html\nand told him the story of his music going to the Moon. Mr. Bilk enthusiastically requested a copy of the CD that I had produced from the tape. Gene Cernan remembered Acker Bilk's music and his hit single \"Stranger on the shore.\" Acker Bilk's website had this to say,\n\"Believe it or not Acker's music has been enjoyed in Outer Space. A cassette belonging to Gene Cernan was flown around the moon in Apollo10. This cassette featured the likes of Doris Day, Kingston Trio and Acker Bilk, the music that Gene and his friend Al Bishop thought was best suited for his forthcoming journey in that time. This cassette is still in existence and is owned by Larry McGlynn who lives in USA and collects items that have been flown in space. Acker music seems to be everywhere, his fans are from all around the World and the Moon!\"\nIt is always interesting to uncover stories that relate to an artifact such as this unique tape cassette. What makes this cassette so unique is that it contains a number of artists, musical genres, types and arrangements. The musical scores range from easy listening, popular vocals to folk songs and demonstrate that the astronauts had eclectic tastes in music.\nIt is nice to know that even lunar voyagers liked some music while \"on the road\" to the Moon.\nLarry, what a great story. It spans decades after the flight and gives continuing life to this incredible relic that is so personal to the crew. Thanks for sharing!\nPosted by: Art Siemientkowski | 12/18/2014 at 10:13 PM",

        "raw_content": "Mary Our Companion \u2013 Br. Curtis Almquist\nIt is our custom here at the monastery on most Saturdays to remember the Blessed Virgin Mary, mother of our Lord Jesus Christ. Our chapel is dedicated to Mary and, as guests will know, we begin Morning Prayer and Evening Prayer every day with the recitation of the \u201cAngelus,\u201d (as in \u201cangels\u201d).The Angelus remembers the account, recorded in the Gospel according to Luke, of the angels coming to the virgin Mary announcing that she will bear a child\u2026 and so the focus of the Angelus is on God becoming human in the face and form of Jesus. Some of us may come from religious backgrounds where the remembrance of Mary was very much a part of our spiritual formation; others of us may have come from a religious tradition which held the remembrance of Mary with some suspicion that she was getting in the way of Jesus (what some people call \u201cMariolatry\u201d). For others of us Mary may simply be a porcelain fixture in a Christmas cr\u00e8che with no other meaning, one way or the other. I\u2019ll suggest some of why remembering the Blessed Virgin Mary may be meaning-full for you today.\n\u2022 For one, you may be in touch right now with fear. It might be fear of the unknown (the unknown present or the unknown future). It may be fear of the known, some seed of you carry in your heart (or in the pit of your stomach), some sense of what God is calling you to be, or bear, or birth. Meister Eckhart, the great German Dominican writing in the early fourteenth century, asks \u201cWhat good is it to me if this eternal birth of the divine Son takes place unceasingly but does not take place within myself? And what good is it to me if Mary is full of grace and if I am not also full of grace? What good is it to me for the Creator to give birth to his Son if I do not also give birth to him in my time and my culture? This, then, is the fullness of time: When the Son of God is begotten in us.\u201d Mary\u2019s first response to the visitation of the angel \u2013 telling her what she was to bear \u2013 was fear. Mary may be a companion to you in your own fear of what God is calling you to be, or bear, or birth.\n\u2022 You may know the experience of resisting or resenting something that has been unfolding in your life, perhaps something that is costing you too much, seeming to threaten your very existence\u2026 and then to wake up some morning and realize that it\u2019s going to be okay, and you find yourself being able to say \u201cyes\u201d to life again. I think this is some of Mary\u2019s experience when she was called by God\u2019s angel to be the Christbearer. Her first reaction was fear; her second reaction was puzzlement: \u201cHow can this be?\u201d And then she awakens to what is being asked of her, realizing it is something she can do. She finds herself able to say to God, Okay: \u201cBe it unto me according to your word.\u201d You may know what it is to finally be able to say \u201cokay\u201d to God, to make peace with your destiny. Perhaps Mary may be to you an \u201cally\u201d as you face your own impossibilities, to find the freedom to say \u201cyes\u201d to your life: what you would not have chosen but cannot avoid in life. Your saying to God, in your own words: \u201cuse me, take me, call me as you will.\u201d\n\u2022 You may find in Mary some deep inspiration as a companion to someone else\u2019s suffering. You may know this person well, love them deeply, carry them in your heart, laugh when they laugh and weep when they weep, and yet, in the moment of their deepest suffering find yourself mysteriously repelled, knowing the temptation to leave them, abandon them, create some distance from them\u2026 not because you don\u2019t love them but because their suffering is so great, and you don\u2019t know if you can abide it because you love them so much. Here we have Mary, this image of the piet\u00e1 , holding Jesus in his suffering, finding the strength and courage to stay with this loved one who suffers. She may be a courageous companion to you and your loved one in the hour of suffering.\n\u2022 Lastly, you may find in Mary an intercessor. If the God whom Jesus called Father is too hidden from you just now, too ferocious, too exacting, too awesome, too silent, you might find some comfort in access to Mary, who seems to have God\u2019s ear: Mary, as someone to whom you can safely whisper your desires or despairs\u2026 trusting that that message, through her, will get to where it belongs.\nHail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with you.\nHoly Mary, Mother of God: Pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death.\n\u2190 Watch\u2026 Beware\u2026 Keep Alert \u2013 Br. David VryhofChrist the King \u2013 Br. David Allen \u2192\nJanet Gilbert on August 19, 2016 at 11:42\nI use the Anglican rosary mostly. Many times I repeat the Hail Mary but struggle with my true relationship and belief. The words are so comforting as I work my way from bead to bead\u2026maybe that comfort is all I need. Thank you for your insight\nMiguel Rodr\u00edguez on August 18, 2016 at 21:37\nExcellent reflection, Brother Curtis! Thank you for sharing it with us.\nJoyce McGirr on August 16, 2016 at 09:07\nWhen my husband was ill and dying, the image of Mary was of great comfort to both of us. We prayed the Hail Mary quite often together and I sang Ave Maria to him while he lay in bed. After his death, I found a dirty old broken statue of Mary placed near a large statue of her in a garden behind the church where I was going for spiritual direction. I asked if I could take it home with me and the answer was,of course. So I brought it home and placed it in my little patch of a garden and planted flowers near her and sat and prayed there every morning. And I was raised Protestant! Go figure. The grace of God is wondrous. Thank you for this beautiful reflection on Mary. I love it. I often wonder where she actually went afterwards-there are stories and legends I know, but it still is a mystery. I believe she had a strong community around her to help her in her grief. She really touches the human soul. I went to grief counseling led by Roman Catholics at a Roman Catholic Church and when I walked in the room, the statue of Mary was on the table, the same one I had on my husband\u2019s prayer card at his funeral. It was comforting to see her. Then they moved it away-oh well. I need to move on as well. Thanks for listening.\nCarole Trickett on August 15, 2016 at 15:06\nI have always found Mary to be of comfort and of relevance. I am grateful for you reglection. I have been calling upon Mary (Meriam) these past weeks, newly widlowed, seeking/exploring new parts of self.\nMargaret Dungan on August 15, 2016 at 10:04\nThank you for this Br. Curtis. It is an aspect of my faith that I have struggled with over the years. You have carved out a way for me and I am very grateful.\nMarshall Keys on August 15, 2016 at 07:46\nI have been reading the little meditations of the Brothers and collecting some of them in my iPad commonplace book for reflection and sustenance.\nBut this a case where a longer account \u2014 this sermon \u2014 was more useful to me by far than the meditation that linked to it.\nAll I saw in the meditation was Anglo-Catholic rant: \u201cMary, who seems to have God\u2019s ear . . . .\u201d I still find it offensive on a number of grounds, and I certainly do not believe what it seems to imply: that access to God needs to be nor even can be mediated by anyone.\nBut The Lord sometimes takes us where we don\u2019t want to go, and I was brought to this sermon, where there is much to reflect on and much on which we agree.\nBut I still reject the idea of Mary as intercessor as I reject and will continue to reject extra-Biblical doctrines like the assumption.\nBut you did get me to think about it! I suspect that the Day will come when we both (metaphorically) stand before the Lord and say, \u201cHow could we have been so blind! It\u2019s not that way at all!\u201d\nCR on August 15, 2016 at 07:01\nMother | The Episcopal Diocese of Louisiana on August 15, 2016 at 00:06",

        "raw_content": "Ancient City Slickers compete March 7 at Jacksonville Landing\nA mix of folk, bluegrass, Americana and pop blend together in what members of the Ancient City Slickers call \"big fun music.\"\nThe local band has been performing at area festivals and venues for about 10 years and will compete March 7 in the JaxTalent 2012 contest.\n\"We started as a jam at John Richard's house (an artist who lived on Anastasia Island), said Cable Spence, the band's five-string banjo player, a local portrait artist, and the host of a Saturday morning Flagler College radio show.\n\"We had Tuesday jams and would use odd-ball instruments. John liked to have a lot of people around making music. He lived on the island with his wife, Claudia Dunaway, and then they moved to North Carolina. When he left, he said 'It's yours (the band).'\"\nTen years later, band members include Chuck Kranz (lead singer, tuba, kazoo, washtub bass, horn, slide whistle); Kayla Douglas (bells, scrub board, Bodhran, vocals); John Alison (guitar, mandolin, vocals, kazoo); Lynn Kaatz (tenor banjo, arranger); Russ Thomas (tenor banjo, guitar, kazoo, vocals); and Spence (five-string banjo, cacophonium, kazoo, slide whistle).\nThe band drew more than 40,000 online votes recently in the JaxTalent2012 competition, a talent show organized by Eco Latino Media Group, in partnership with the Florida Times Union, to showcase the diversity and talent of North Florida.\n\"Out of the 57 contestants, the top 22 will perform March 7,\" said Bernarbe Murguia, the social media specialist for Eco Latino, a Hispanic monthly magazine and website, www.ecolatino.com.\n\"They (bands/musicians) performed in front of six judges, and the judges chose the top 28,\" Murguia said.\nFrom there, videos were put online for public voting. The Ancient City Slickers won the most online votes, with more than 40,000.\nAccording to Spence, he and band members called and emailed \"everyone we know that had a computer so they could vote for us.\"\nBut the real test will come on March 7 when the band performs for the audience at the The Jacksonville Landing, 2 W. Independent Drive, in\nEach of the 22 bands or musicians will play a selection and the judges will choose the top three from the audience reaction. The winner will receive $5,000.\nThe Ancient City Slickers are asking St. Augustine fans to come up and support the band.\nThe band plays old songs and new songs, and puts their own spin on each one using string instruments and a mix of other \"'sound' producing devices.\"\nSpence sometimes uses a cacophonium, an instrument the band created that includes a cowbell, symbols, an Indian taxi horn, plastic bells, a triangle, and something new that may be added every now and then.\n\"We added a washtub bass about eight years ago. \u2026 and then came slide whistles, kazoos, and more,\" Spence said.\nThe Ancient City Slickers are entertainment regulars at the Florida Folk Festival, the Gamble Rogers Folk Festival, Concerts in the Plaza (each spring and summer in downtown St. Augustine), and the Ormond Beach Seafood Festival.\n\"We also play private parties, retirement homes and villages,\" Spence said.\n\"These people (at retirement homes) don't get much entertainment \u2026 especially much live entertainment. They come in their wheelchairs or sitting very still \u2026 but when the music starts, their eyes start to perk up, they tap their feet. Some of the songs we play they haven't heard in about 40, 50 years. The expression on their faces is just amazing.\"\n\"Our participation in this contest is to broaden our scope, to let people know who we are,\" Spence said.\n\"If we pull this thing off, we could have some fun with it. We are getting a new audience. I'm hoping it will be a door-opener.\"\nThe band likes to include the audience by inviting people to come on stage and play a kazoo.\n\"Some don't know how to play and we have to stop the music and give a lesson, but once they get the hang of it, they have fun,\" Spence said.\nAccording to Spence, he came across the JaxTalent2012 contest by accident.\n\"I was on the internet and hit it by accident, and it was all written in Spanish. \u2026 Then I saw an ad (about the contest) in the newspaper a week or two later,\" he said.\nThe band is looking for someone who has a bus to take fans up to the concert at the Jacksonville Landing. Volunteers are asked to call Spence at 287-3274.\nAdmission is free, and the concert will be from 5 to 9 p.m. Go to www.ecolatino.com.\nJaxTalent 2012\nWhere: The Jacksonville Landing, 2 West Independent Drive, Jacksonville\nOnline: www.ecolatino.com\nAncient City Slickers: www.facebook.com/pages/Ancient-City-Slickers; www.myspace.com/ancientcityslickers",

        "title": "Rules in relation to illegal working tightened - Stevens & Bolton LLP",
        "raw_content": "Rules in relation to illegal working tightened\nAuthorKerry Garcia\nThe first set of measures under the Immigration Act 2016 (\u201cthe Act\u201d) came into force on 12 July 2016. The aim of the Act is to tackle immigration by making it harder to live and work in the UK illegally.\nThese provisions introduce a new criminal offence of illegal working and strengthen the provisions contained in the Immigration, Asylum and Nationality Act 2006 in relation to employing an illegal worker. Earnings which derive from illegal working can also now be treated as the proceeds of crime and thus confiscated.\nNew offence of illegal working\nWith effect from 12 July 2016, a person who is subject to immigration control commits a criminal offence if they work in the UK when they do not have the appropriate permission and they either know, or have reasonable cause to believe, they do not have the appropriate permission. Prior to 12 July 2016, employers only committed a criminal offence if they \u201cknowingly\u201d employed someone who does not have the right to work in the UK.\nThis includes where the person has not been granted leave to enter or remain in the UK; where leave was granted but the person\u2019s leave to enter or remain in the UK is, or has become, invalid; where the leave has ceased to have effect (whether by reason of curtailment, revocation, cancellation, passage of time or otherwise); or where the leave is subject to a condition preventing the person from doing work of that kind.\nThe penalty for a worker who commits this new offence is 6 months\u2019 imprisonment, an unlimited fine or both.\nOffence of employing an illegal worker\nA person or company commits an offence if they employ a person who is disqualified from employment by reason of the employee's immigration status and if the person or company has reasonable cause to believe that the employee is disqualified from employment by reason of the employee's immigration status.\nThe Act introduces tougher sanctions on employers for employing an illegal worker. It increases the maximum custodial sentence from two to five years. The Act also introduces a new power to issue a closure notice in certain circumstances. This is an order that business premises must be closed for up to 48 hours if the business has been found to be employing illegal workers. The Home Office also has a discretion to place such a business on special compliance measures, which may include continued closure.\nThe definition of when a person is deemed to be working illegally is very wide. This means that even an honest, minor or trivial mistake made in an immigration application that results in the individual not having the appropriate leave to work in the UK could result in the sponsoring employer (and indeed the individual) committing an offence.\nThe changes also mean that the employer will be committing a criminal offence if the employer has \u201creasonable cause to believe\u201d that they are employing an illegal worker, even if it cannot be said that they have outright knowledge of this.\nEmployers also risk a civil penalty of up to \u00a320,000 per illegal worker if they employ an individual who does not have the right to work in the UK. As such, we strongly recommend that:\nemployers take prompt action if they suspect someone may not have the right to work in the UK and seek legal advice;\nemployers carry out the right to work checks before an employee starts work. If the person has limited leave to remain, these checks must be carried out again upon expiry of the leave to remain;\nimmigration and right to work processes are audited regularly to reduce the risk of an inadvertent breach of the new illegal working laws; and\nemployers obtain advice in relation to employees\u2019 immigration applications, as the rules are becoming increasingly complex.",

        "raw_content": "WHEN is it too late to return an unwanted item of clothing for exchange?\nWhile most of us realise that returns need to be made in a timely manner to qualify for a refund, it seems one shopper hasn\u2019t clued on \u2014 but they managed to get away with it anyway.\nAstonishingly, whoever was working that day appears to have accepted the return \u2014 which still had the tags on \u2014 if the posted image is to be believed.\nThe outfit is accompanied by what appears to be an irate note penned by the store manager, reading: \u201cWho on Earth accepted this as a return?!?!?! This item is from the summer of 2000! That was almost 17 years ago! Our return policy is 45 days! If you\u2019re not sure, ASK!\u201d\nSeveral Redditers commented on the noticeably outdated style of the outfit, dubbing it \u201cThe Chandler Bing collection\u201d.\nThe post quickly went viral, attracting comments from retail workers who discussed how the shirt, a size XL which retailed for $US24.50 at the time, could have been refunded.\n\u201cI\u2019m amazed that their [point of sale] software would allow a return that old without a manager\u2019s approval,\u201d one commenter wrote.\n\u201cAlso amazing that the manager didn\u2019t know who accepted the return, which would be nearly impossible at any GAP,\u201d another added.\nBut one possible explanation was raised by a retail worker who suggested: \u201cI\u2019m sure the employee scanned the barcode and it came up blank in the system. The customer was probably throwing a fit, so the employee just shrugged, rung them up for store credit, then moved on with their life ... GAP lost a couple dollars but the customer is happy and they can throw this on the clearance rack. NBD [no big deal].\u201d\nAnother noted that that some cashiers at Gap still had the ability to manually enter returns.\nFormer Gap workers pointed out that the company apparently had a no-time-limit returns policy at the time of the sale.\n\u201cOn the back of the receipt it actually said that they return it any time, as long as it was unwashed/unworn,\u201d one former worker said.\n\u201cYes, they\u2019ve changed the policy, but that wasn\u2019t part of the agreement when it was purchased.\u201d\nAnother said: \u201cI worked for Gap from 2001-2005 and the deal was that as long as it was unworn they had a receipt we had to take a return, which could mean accepting Levi\u2019s which Gap used to sell when it opened in 1969!\u201d\nAnd finally: \u201cIf someone can manage to keep their original receipt from a clothing purchase for almost 17 years (and have it be in readable condition), damn ... They deserve that return.\u201d\nSourcing and supply chains are a little bit of a mess right now, and those not suffering as a result of that have figured out how to bend with the changes of the market.",

        "raw_content": "Letter to the Editor: In praise of the north side\nThis is in response to Ms Sievers' article about her fear of our Nebraska winters and a seedy North side.\nI am a four generation Sidneyite. My great grandparents homesteaded in this area and this is where my family has been proud to call our home. I, with my parents, lived on the north side as a kid, as well as on Linden. I currently live on the north side (last 30 years). My mother's grandparents owned a home on the north side. My father's mother lived on the north side. My grandmother was given a ride to church every week by some lovely people who then, and still do, live on the north side. Get my point?\nWhen I last checked, the north side wasn't any seedier than any of the rest of Sidney. If she was referring to crime, we have had murders, child abuse, drug abuse, robbery, etc. all over Sidney--not just the north side.\nIf she was referring to the looks of the neighborhood, she just needs to open her eyes and look around town in a lot of our areas. She seems more concerned that people will judge her gloves not matching than her insulting a significant portion of the community. Anyone who has made it through one of the winters she has fears about won't even notice her gloves don't match--and who cares?\nI sometimes think these kind of remarks or articles are why some Sidney people can be a little cliquish to outsiders. I also know reporters can't please everyone, and this one hasn't pleased me.\nIf I see her walking in a blizzard this winter, I will still give her a ride, because I am one of those north siders and proud of it!\nDana M. Revell\nEditor's note: Caitlin Sievers' column that day was intended as tongue-in-cheek humor. Her line about the north side was a sardonic reflection of the comments she heard when arriving in Sidney. In previous columns--intended to be taken seriously--she has defended the north side against aspersions, citing the neighborhood as a nice place to live. Indeed, she resides on the north side.\nWe include this explanation with Ms Revell's understanding in the matter. Humor is a personal thing, after all, and others may not have realized our columnist did not intend anything more.",

Further, they bring you targeted traffic, people who are searching for information on cosmetic procedures and the doctors who perform them. The only problem is that someone searching for \u2018abdominoplasty\u2019, for instance, receives about 277,000 results, or other websites, on Google. If you\u2019re at the bottom end of those results, you have very little chance of being seen. Ideally, you want to be in the top 50 results of a search engine, with the top 20 being most preferable. Anything beyond that is really pretty useless as most people searching the Internet aren\u2019t going to continue beyond that 50 th result, if they even get that far.\nSearch engines have different criteria for how they return search results, and most tend to change their algorithms on a regular basis. Sites listed prominently one day may be at the bottom of the results the next. Google is currently the largest search engine and there are a number of things that they seem to like. They like sites with original, keyword-rich content and relevant incoming links. They like lots of technical things like good URLs and well-written description meta tags. The key, when it comes to search engines, is to know the factors that each of the search engines uses to rank pages and, simply put, to give them what they want.",

See PA Feature GARDENING Gardening Column. Picture credit should read: Gareth Fuller/PA Photos. WARNING: This picture must only be used to accompany PA Feature GARDENING Gardening Column. ENGEMN00120130901095814\nThe number of British woods suffering from ash dieback has almost tripled in two years, new figures reveal.\nThere is particular concern for Sussex which is a stronghold for the native tree.\nAlmost 1,000 sites across the UK have now been affected by the disease, which was first detected in 2012.\nGovernmentMinisters are now focusing on slowing the spread of the disease and developing varieties of ash tree that are resistant to the fungus.\nExperts now believe ash dieback, which is known as Chalara, is unstoppable and will ultimately spread across the entire country.\nThe disease will wipe out the natural habitats hundreds of animals and birds, including wood mice, wrens, bats, bullfinches and beetles.\nNew figures from the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) show the number of infected sites in the UK had risen from 323 at end of 2012 to 949 at the end of 2014.\nEnvironment Secretary Elizabeth Truss has said: \u201cWe are doing all we can on ash dieback. It is a serious issue. We\u2019re looking at various ways of dealing with it but we don\u2019t have a magic bullet. We don\u2019t have a solution and we\u2019re still carrying out research on that.\u201d\nRestrictions on the movement of ash plants were introduced in 2012.\nA Defra spokesman said: \u201cOur aim is to ensure that the graceful ash tree continues to have a place in our forests. To help combat Chalara this Government has committed over \u00a316.5 million into tree health research which includes identifying a strain of ash tree which is naturally resistant to the disease.\u201d\nThe disease causes leaves to blacken and branches die.\nDr Richard Buggs, who researches ash dieback at Queen Mary, University of London, said the situation had become \u201cvery serious\u201d.\n\u201cAlmost all of our ash trees could be affected,\u201d he said. \u201cSome will die quickly, some will battle the fungus for a decade or more and hopefully a few will be resistant or at least partly resistant. The spread is inexorable and the whole country will be affected.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Will Marvel movies and TV ever cross over? Kevin Feige weighs in\nEver since Marvel Studios started its current TV adventures, fans have been waiting for that big crossover between the big and small screens to come along.\nGood thing they haven't held their breath: While there have been little border crossings on Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. (Nick Fury and Sif have both appeared on the show) and the late, lamented Agent Carter was a direct spin-off of the Captain America films, the Marvel Cinematic Universe has pretty much ignored AoS, not to mention the four Netflix shows we've seen so far (which have all, for their part, made oblique references to the Avengers).\nBut with more characters headed to TV on upcoming series like Runaways and Inhumans, and so many key Marvel heroes on shows like Daredevil and Luke Cage, it seems strange to think that none of them will ever graduate to the big screen. Which is why io9 asked Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige if a character appearing on TV meant they'd never show up in a movie. Feige responded:\n\"Not necessarily. The future\u2019s a long time. So, the truth is, I don\u2019t really know, but there are a lot of TV shows being made, and hopefully we\u2019ll continue to make a lot of movies. At some point, there\u2019s going to be a crossover. Crossover, repetition, or something.\"\nThe word \"repetition\" is important, because what Feige -- who's great at saying things indirectly -- is hinting at here is that sure, Daredevil or Jessica Jones might show up on the big screen at some point, but perhaps not the one you know from the TV show. In other words, a reboot.\nNot that anything like that is happening soon; the MCU has to first worry about what it's going to do with characters like Iron Man and Captain America as those actors come to the end of their contracts. And it certainly seems likely that the Marvel shows on both Netflix and ABC all have a few more years left in them (and both Feige and Marvel TV chieftain Jeph Loeb have said that the production schedules on TV don't allow much room for movie tie-ins at the moment).\nBut when The Punisher runs its course on Netflix, we now know it doesn't mean the character goes into mothballs until the end of time. Whether it will be Jon Bernthal punishing his way into multiplexes, however...that remains to be seen.\nNetflix teases Season 2 of Punisher after fellow Marvel streaming shows get the axe\nMore familiar faces join the crowded cast of The Defenders",

        "raw_content": "Apple hits highest market share in 15 years\nBy Rick Burgess on November 21, 2011, 15:30 11 comments\nThe number of Apple enthusiasts continues to creep upward as Apple bumps past the five percent mark to 5.3 percent, representing a major psychological milestone for the Cupertino-based company. This is up from 4.4% about a year ago.\nWhile Apple's success still is not quite enough to make them number one in computers, Apple's growth in the personal computer market has handily bested all other PC manufacturers. The company's growth in computer sales accounted for 20 percent of all personal computer shipments, the result of a generous 25.6 percent bump from last year's performance. Compared against the industry average of 4.0 percent, it is clear Apple still has plenty of momentum.\nThe enterprising company also continues to make headway into the business sector, outpacing the rest of the market by nine to one. To put it more illustratively, that is 43.8 percent versus the industry average of 4.8 percent. There are expectations that Apple will continue to flourish in business markets because Apple's new CEO, Tim Cook, has publicly stated he has more interest in working with enterprise customers than the company has previously shown.\nChart courtesy of Needham/IDC\nChina is now Apple's second largest market with a record sales of $4.5 billion during Q3 of 2011. This is also echoed in other world markets, where the company has gained 19.5 percent growth in Europe despite an overall, 10.5 percent industry decline last quarter.\nThese numbers are not without controversy though. The firm who performed the analysis, Needham & Company, chose to lump together tablets with personal computer sales. This is not unlike other recent analyses performed by a plethora of companies, but this does give Apple an obvious edge being that they are still the #1 tablet manufacturer in the world.\nSo now, the question is, are tablets really \"personal computers\"? How should a PC be defined these days?\nApple Mac Mini - Summer 2011 Edition - Intel Core i5",

        "title": "How accessible is travel around Flanders Fields?",
        "raw_content": "How accessible is travel around Flanders Fields?\nMany attractions in Flanders provide access for those with mobility issues and other disabilities Credit: Milo Profi Fotografie\nGetting accurate information can make or break a trip abroad and that becomes even more important if you have a disability that makes it difficult to access some attractions.\nOn my recent trip to Flanders Fields, I was interested to see how the region had prepared for the expected influx of visitors during the war\u2019s centenary. Was it, as the title of one of the Visit Flanders tourist board brochures puts it, \u201cAccessible to Everyone\u201d?\nThe dugout was enveloped in an eerie gloom, with just a few flickering lights illuminating the wooden planks of the walls and ceiling. Nearby I could hear the sound of the water pumps which kept the subterranean shelter from being flooded \u2013 or would have done if this was something other than an atmospheric reconstruction beneath the Memorial Museum Passchendaele 1917.\n\u201cActually the light would have been only about half as bright as you see here,\u201d my guide Geert Delbecque told me.\nThroughout my trip I found that the \u2018Accessible to Everyone\u2019 brochure was both detailed and accurate\nAs I pondered just how dark and damp a genuine First World War dugout would have been, Geert surprised me again by pointing out that \u2013 as long as you entered using the lift \u2013 the dugout was accessible to wheelchair users.\nLike many visitors I based myself in Ypres, which at first glance looked like a typical medieval city with a particularly impressive town square. But looks can be deceptive: Ypres was surrounded on three sides by the German army for much of the war and was completely devastated. Pretty much everything you can see today was built or rebuilt afterwards.\nThe Gothic-style Cloth Hall on the town square is now home to the In Flanders Fields museum, which was recently renovated and has level floors and lifts for wheelchair access. One of the most memorable exhibits, for me, is a touch screen where a Google Earth view of the modern city is overlaid with wartime aerial photographs of the scarred terrain.\nOverall the museum provided an informative and accessible introduction to wartime history and the sites I would see over the next couple of days.\nAs you\u2019d expect, there are a host of companies in Ypres offering car and minibus tours; one of these is Frontline Tours, whose owner Lionel Roosemont talked to me about arranging trips for clients with disabilities.\n\u201cIt\u2019s important to book ahead and talk to me about what you need,\u201d he said, \u201cso that I can advise you on access and make space in the van if you need it.\u201d\nHe can arrange a private tour, which is particularly useful if you want to see a specific cemetery in which a relative is buried, but he also has standard itineraries covering many of the places I planned to visit.\nI spent my first day at sites around the Ypres Salient including Tyne Cot, the largest Commonwealth war cemetery in the world. Its 12,000 simple white gravestones are all identical to symbolise soldiers\u2019 equality in death; the repetition vividly illustrates the scale of the loss of life in Flanders. Just as moving are the walls inscribed with the names of another 35,000 soldiers whose resting places are not known.\nThe Last Post at Menin Gate, played every day at 8pm Credit: Milo Profi Fotografie\nInevitably some places I visited were more accessible than others. Take the famous Menin Gate in Ypres, an arch which bears the names of almost 55,000 missing Commonwealth soldiers. The steps on two sides of the gate would be impossible by wheelchair, which means that you couldn\u2019t get close to some of the inscribed panels or the places where wreaths of poppies are left.\nOn the other hand, the main area beneath the arch is flat and that\u2019s where the poignant Last Post is sounded at 8pm every day in honour of the fallen. The space gets very crowded with tourists, so it\u2019s a good idea to arrive by around 7.15pm, but there\u2019s space in the middle where people with disabilities can get a spot away from the throng.\nOf course, there\u2019s more to accessibility than routes for people with impaired mobility. At the Memorial Museum Passchendaele 1917, for example, the dugout may be suitable for wheelchairs but getting through such a dark environment might be a challenge for someone with poor eyesight. I asked the staff and they recommended that visitors with disabilities arrive early, since school groups start to fill the place up from around 10am to 4pm.\nWhile there\u2019s no substitute for making personal enquiries, throughout my trip I found that the \u201cAccessible to Everyone\u201d brochure was both detailed and accurate. Perhaps most importantly it doesn\u2019t gloss over potential problems. At Tyne Cot, for example, it mentions an accessible entrance but also warns that \u201cthere is an adapted toilet, but it is difficult to reach because of the path\u2019s pebble stones\u201d.\nIt\u2019s clear that, by providing accurate information \u2013 alongside training staff and working with sites to upgrade facilities \u2013 Visit Flanders is taking access seriously.\nRob Crossan, who writes and broadcasts on disability matters as well as travel, recently visited Flanders and relates his experiences:\nThe lone bugler raises his instrument at 8pm sharp every evening in Ypres. The salute at the Menin Gate to those who fell in the mud and dirt of the battlefields a century ago continues to have a desperately poignant efffect, despite the crowds that flock to the memorial. And as a severely visually impaired visitor to the region, it was perhaps the most powerful experience I had during a tour which is exceptionally accessible and effective to blind and visually impaired visitors.\nVisit Flanders has a huge roster of walking guides, all of whom were excellently prepared for dealing with a visitor like myself who needed extra assistance with stairs, roads and with reading some of the hugely informed visual elements to museums such as the In Flanders Fields museum in the centre of Ypres.\nThis is one of the best examples in Europe of a museum which has embraced the interactive approach to commemorating history without the usual concomitant dumbing-down.\nI particularly enjoyed the audio recordings (made by actors) of real diary entries written by soldiers, nurses and doctors, detailing the horror of life on the front line with a notable lack of sentiment or emotion.\nVisiting the battlefields themselves was no less affecting. I spent my final morning in the region at the Memorial Museum in Passchendaele (actually in the nearby village of Zonnebeke) where, outside the venue, there is a re-creation of a trench.\nWith detailed descriptions by my guide I was able to feel my way around the contorting narrow alleyway, the wooden duckboards creaking beneath my feet.\nIt\u2019s impossible not to be affected by the feeling of suffocation that immediately manifests the moment you step inside the warren of bunkers where thousands of men would spend months enduring the near-constant ear-splitting sound of exploding shells.\nGrateful to be escorted out of the trench and back up on to the soft grass of 21st-century Zonnebeke, the contrast between the gentle breeze and birdsong of the Ypres of today and the horror of a century ago could not be more pronounced.\nVisiting this region was an experience that cast a profound effect upon my every sense.",

        "raw_content": "Must stop spending, and here is why\n\"We cannot continue to spend money we do not have.\"\nIt is a phrase I have spent the last year repeating. To some it might seem to be common sense. To others it sounds like a simple talking point, one that has no impact on their lives.\nHowever, I believe getting federal spending under control is deeply important to our economy and our nation as a whole. Here's why.\nLet's start with the consequences of continuing to borrow money to pay for our runaway spending. Our debt has now surpassed $15 trillion, a massive amount of money roughly equal to the value of every product and service produced by every American company in an entire year.\nIf we do not get our debt under control the credit rating agencies will further downgrade our once impeccable credit rating. That will increase the interest rate we pay on our borrowing, making every dollar we borrow more expensive. It would be a snowball effect leading to even more crippling debt.\nRight now, every child born in American immediately inherits $48,700 in debt before they take their first breath, and that number is rising rapidly. Eventually, the bill will come due -- so to speak -- and our creditors will expect to be paid back. The debt will become a weight that will have to be shouldered by future generations.\nToday's spending will no doubt have to be paid for with higher taxes tomorrow. What will the financial futures of our children and grandchildren look like when they start out life with a $50,000 or $100,000 tax bill?\nSurely, they will not experience the same standard of living and economic freedom modern Americans have come to expect. Everything becomes more expensive when more of your paycheck is taken away to pay for past borrowing.\nAmerica's businesses, both large and small, will no doubt face higher tax rates as well. With more money headed to Washington there will be less available to expand our economy through job creation and the type of innovation that was once the cornerstone of America's economic strength. Business in America will stagnate, especially when compared to other advanced economies that have begun to recognize government spending is not a recipe for long-term success.\nWhile it is the private sector, and not government, that drives job creation in America, reckless government policies can certainly create barriers to job creation in the private sector.\nOur country's inability to break free from the quicksand of recession during the past three years is directly linked to the rampant uncertainty among American families and employers who have been paralyzed by fear as they brace for the next round of tax hikes and regulatory mandates from Washington.\nIf our fiscal position continues to worsen, we may not have to wait until the next generation to see the consequences of today's overspending. However, it is not too late to do something about it. First, Washington needs a shock to the system. That is why I voted against approving yet another increase in our debt limit this week.\nWhile defaulting on the debts of the past is not a viable option, neither is continuing the Washington status quo, which has been defined by the failure of Congress and its \"Super Committee\" to identify specific spending reductions to offset the debt limit increase, and a stunning lack of leadership on the part of the president on this issue.\nDrastic action is needed to get our ship back on course and avert the coming economic disaster. It is past time for our elected officials to roll up their sleeves and get the job done. Simply put: we cannot continue to spend money we do not have.\nFollow Jim Renacci on Facebook (facebook.com/repjimrenacci), Twitter (twitter.com/repjimrenacci) or YouTube (youtube.com/repjimrenacci).

        "raw_content": "If I\u2019m truly honest, I think there\u2019s a lot to be said for just blindly stumbling forward into paths that excite you with an unflappable air of self belief that stops just short of arrogance.\nAs a young musician I listened to a wide variety of music and had many favorite bands, but few equaled the raw power and passion of Buzzcocks, an iconic British punk band who went on to influence many of the next generation of British musical trendsetters. I was thrilled to catch up with their current drummer, Danny Farrant, and, despite a heavy tour schedule, winter weather, and being stranded in Paris, we still managed to bag a great interview. Enjoy!\nThe Buzzcocks are an iconic British punk band, Danny, and I suspect that some of our readers are familiar with your work\u2014but equally some won\u2019t be. Can you tell us a little about the band?\nWell, along with bands like Sex Pistols, The Damned, The Clash, and Souixie and the Banshees, Buzzcocks were one of the bands to emerge in the first wave of English punk rock back in 1976. Originally from Manchester the band is thought of as the granddaddies of the Manchester music scene, influencing bands like Joy Division, The Smiths, The Stone Roses and Oasis. The first EP Spiral Scratch was the original indie release, being pressed with a 500 quid loan from family members. Buzzcocks then went on to major deals and hit singles, the track \u201cEver Fallen in Love\u201d being the one that most people know and love. The most successful album, Singles Going Steady, is like a best of containing hit after hit, a testament to the strength of the band\u2019s writing abilities and great original playing. Great production as well, by the way.\nProper members of British music aristocracy for sure. So how did you get the gig, Danny?\nI joined the band in April 2006 after a friend of mine overheard a conversation in a pub containing the words \u201cBuzzcocks are looking for a drummer.\u201d He called me to tell me but hadn\u2019t got any numbers or anything, so I made a few calls and tracked down Tony Barber, who then was the bass player, and fixed myself up with an audition. I did the audition on Monday, got the call Tuesday, rehearsed Wednesday and Thursday, then straight after the rehearsal on Thursday got on the bus for the start of a seven-month world tour. Here I am nearly five years later still touring hard with the band and about to start on the first new studio album since joining.\nWow, a proper baptism of fire then! Did you find it easy fitting into such a well-established outfit?\nFitting into the band was easy as soon as I realized that everybody sat in the same seat on the bus and had done for the last 15 years or more. To be honest, Buzzcocks is definitely not for the faint hearted. There\u2019s a heavy touring schedule and a tough work ethic involved, with plenty of travelling at all kinds of day and night. Any band who spends this amount of time in close proximity to each other will have those \"tired and emotional\" moments, but I don\u2019t find it hard negotiating my way through these kind of things, so it\u2019s not a problem.\nFortunately I like meeting and getting to know new people and I have a very robust personality, so I just pitch in and enjoy the challenge. Although having said that, the time I had beef stroganoff and noodles thrown over me by a pissed up band member on the third day of my first tour was a bit of an eye opener. I guess it helped ease me in to the well-oiled machine that is Buzzcocks on the road.\nNot many things can prepare you for that kind of experience. So did you have a traditional musical education or did you go your own way, so to speak?\nI\u2019d say that I made my own way within what you might call a traditional musical education. For example, my parents spotted my interest in music from a very early age and found me a piano teacher. However I never did any of the practice I was meant to do; I just sat at the piano and experimented. I still do now. I taught myself to play by ear and could play Beatles\u2019 songs by ear by the age of ten, and that was nothing to do with whatever anybody was trying to give me as formal musical education. Basically my attitude now is the same as it was then. I like to try to play and get involved with the music I listen to. I learnt to play punk rock drums when I was ten years old because I heard it from one of the big boys down the road and on the radio (from John Peel under the covers late at night\u2014a clich\u00e9, yet true). Something in it resonated with me so I just did it, and it turns out later that I learned a whole language of drumming without really thinking about it. I would say that what has been of the most value was to follow my instincts through listening, listening, listening. My rudiments are terrible and I still can\u2019t read music very well, even though I took grades and studied at the Royal Academy of Music. Mind you, I hung out with cool people and jammed at the drop of a hat whenever I could and picked up skills that I probably take for granted.\nWho or what were, and are, your own personal influences as a drummer?\nI\u2019m what you might call a dipper-in-er. I\u2019m constantly listening to music and absorbing new things. If there\u2019s music on then I can\u2019t concentrate on anything else (much to my girlfriend\u2019s annoyance) whether I\u2019m in the car, watching telly, out at a restaurant or whatever it is I\u2019m doing. I really believe that this is where most of my influences come from. I\u2019ve never had a drum hero and the closest I would say I\u2019ve come to being a fan of any band would be going back to those first days of listening to punk rock and playing my singles collection over and over.\nBut there have definitely been some musicians and drummers that I\u2019ve admired along the way, which I guess I\u2019ve wished to have a bit of what they have in my playing. It probably starts with either punk or jazz (Dad was a sax player and introduced me to that music really early on.) I\u2019d say Paul Cook, Rat Scabies, Budgie, Topper, Jimmy Reilly or Brian Fallon from Stiff Little fingers, The Beat, The Specials, The Selector, early UB40, Miles Davis, Philly Joe Jones, Buddy Rich, Stan Getz, Oscar Peterson, Errol Garner, the music of Steve Reich, Glen Gould, Phil Rudd and AC/DC, Neil Conti and the music of Prefab Sprout. Stewart Copeland, I suppose, although nowadays I would never listen to The Police. Charlie Watts, Gilson Levis and early Squeeze, Elvis Costello (Pete Thomas, what a drummer!) Dmitri Shostakovich, Stravinsky\u2019s \u201cThe Rite of Spring,\u201d BB King, Bob Dylan, and at the moment, T.Rex. I know this is a long list but I reckon it\u2019s best to absorb a little of what you like from everyone rather than becoming obsessed with one person or thing and becoming a clone. Clones are always boring. It\u2019s far better to strive for originality and to find things that come from inside you to express as musical ideas. Oh, I love Stevie Wonder\u2019s drumming by the way\u2014really instinctive, tasteful, but exciting, almost like he wrote the songs himself or something. (laughs)\nThat\u2019s an extensive list, Danny! After having a look at some of your teaching videos on YouTube, you project a great no-nonsense approach. The video is really nicely edited and the soundtrack and visuals are both superb. Is this something you intend to turn into a series or DVD and book package?\nWell, thanks for your positive comments and encouragement on that one. I must say that means a lot to me \u2018cause I put a lot into my teaching and am really into it. It started by accident at school when a couple of mates wanted me to show \u2018em some beats (one was a total mod and loved Keith Moon\u2014being a punk, of course I hadn\u2019t even heard of him!) then the school drum teacher asked me if I could teach two kids that he didn\u2019t have time for, so that was me in at the deep end. I started doing the video thing as a kind of reaction I guess to all those useless YouTube videos that go on and on and on without ever showing you anything useful or those overcomplicated supposed instruction videos where some bloke shows off for hours with a load of clever licks and never actually teaches you anything. I\u2019m a great believer in simplicity. Why play two notes if it can be done with one? Maybe I\u2019m just lazy but it goes back to the old saying \"less is more.\" Lots of people say it, but not enough practice it. I constantly find myself saying \u201ctoo many notes, not enough music,\u201d so it kind of seemed right to get off my ass and see if I could come up with something that did the job and shows beginners what they really need to get started on drums and get to the nitty gritty of what\u2019s important\u2014learning to play with other musicians and to hit the drums confidently, with good time. I\u2019m working on more at the moment and am even thinking about turning it into an app. That\u2019d be really cool. Let\u2019s encourage kids to play real drums instead of those plastic things you get with rock band or guitar hero, eh!\nI think that just by reading this interview people will get a flavour of the enthusiasm you have for music and drumming. What is it that you enjoy most about your job?\nWell, I guess my job is a kind of a three-pronged attack which encompasses performing, teaching, plus composing, and each part has its own enjoyable elements. For example, when I\u2019m performing I get to travel loads and that takes me to different countries where I get to experience things from new cultures. Most recently we had shows in China, so I got to meet people and eat great food and play to a whole different crowd of fans, but the thing I remember most was discovering an ancient garden in the middle of a really tacky shopping area that we were visiting. It was so beautifully put together and thought out with Koi carp, pergolas and even a tea tasting ceremony. So many cities we visit are sadly so globalised that seeing anything traditional and indigenous is a real treat. The garden was a real insight into the history and mindset of a traditional China, which seems to be fading fast in the quest to become westernized big players on the global stage. Also it was a great opportunity to see the care and attention to detail that the ancient Chinese took in creating such a place of aesthetic beauty.\nTeaching is great because I\u2019m constantly being challenged in so many ways. Teaching young kids and beginners means I have to adapt the language I use in order to make it understandable to someone who isn\u2019t yet fluent in drummer vocabulary. Also I\u2019ve tried really hard to find ways of expressing things in the positive rather that the negative. For example \"stay in time\" instead of \"don\u2019t speed up\" or \"strike the drum in the centre\" rather than \"don\u2019t let your stick hit the edge.\" It may sound simple but we tend to repeat key phrases over and over when teaching, and I like to keep them positive and as encouraging as possible. It\u2019s also tremendous to be constantly working with students who are as passionate about music and drums as I am. There\u2019s an added bonus too in that because they are younger than me and have more time to listen to what\u2019s new and happening in music, they keep me informed. One of my students recently wanted to learn tracks off the first Bombay Bicycle Club album, so I get to make discoveries that I otherwise wouldn\u2019t have.\nComposing is another part of what I do and throws up different delights. In a way I guess it\u2019s the most rewarding, although that could be because it\u2019s what I do least of. I recently composed a library piece, which ended up sounding like a fairground organ after taking a s*** load of acid. I composed it with my mate Paul who I used to play in Boy Cried Wolf with. We ended up overdubbing 10 giant kazoos and filling thirty glass bottles with water to get different pitches, and even though it was tedious and took ages, I think we came up with something really creative, fun and organic sounding. I hate sample CDs and try to keep everything sounding as human and loose as possible.\nYou travel and play all over the world with the band. How do you keep in shape and on top of your game?\nThe truth is, I don\u2019t. I probably should, but I just don\u2019t. I\u2019m a music and rock \u2018n\u2019 roll fanatic not a fitness freak. Each hotel we\u2019re in always has great gyms and swimming pools, but if I do all that stuff on the day of a show then I\u2019m just too relaxed to go out and thrash the drums with the right attitude. To be honest I\u2019m actually a believer in conserving energy in order to unleash it at the right moment. Interestingly enough I found myself having a milkshake with Matt Cameron whilst we were both in Washington recently (as you do!) and the subject of drummer aches and pains came up. He told me he used to go to the gym everyday on the road in order to strengthen his back (he was having some back troubles) but realized he was overdoing it, so stopped. Truth is that when you\u2019re on the road playing a heavy punk rock show night after night then you\u2019re already doing one workout a day, why do more? I do try to do warm-ups, though. That really helps. Nothing major, just some stretches that I came across by accident that Robin Guy had posted on YouTube. I tell you, that\u2019s the kind of stuff kids should be learning\u2014proper info from a guy that\u2019s out there doing it on the road for real, day in day out. There really is no substitute for experience, so I can\u2019t say what is right for anyone else. I just know what works for me because I\u2019ve been lucky to have played with some guys that seem to like getting out on the road and playing their balls off.\nSo what are some other top tips for touring?\nI reckon every musician has to find his or her way of getting through the trials of being on the road and touring. My routines and habits have really changed a lot over the years and I guess with time and experience you figure out what works and what doesn\u2019t. I used to drink a lot and get up to all kinds of mischief, possibly to the detriment of the performance at times. I\u2019ve toned down my behavior as the years have gone by because at the end of the day, I\u2019m out there to do a job and I take a lot of pride in being as good as I possibly can for the show each night. I never drink before a show, only after when the job is done, and even then in moderation, otherwise my muscles turn to s*** on a long tour and I don\u2019t have the power I need to get through punk rock at 170 bpm plus for an hour and a half. I\u2019m afraid to say that my wild man of rock \u2018n\u2019 roll days are behind me, although I\u2019m happier doing what I do now than before in a much more settled way and that reflects in my playing and performance.\nI read a quote saying that when you joined the band you learned most of the current repertoire in two days. Is this true and how did you commit that volume of information to memory?\nAt the risk of sounding like a Craig David song, this is what happened. I did the audition on Monday, got the call to say I got the job on Tuesday, rehearsed Wednesday and Thursday, left for Germany on Thursday night and did the first show of what pretty much turned out to be a seven-month world tour on Friday. I learnt 35 songs in 5 days. Two of those days were rehearsals (albeit very short and with one band member missing). I have to say that the first gig in Bochum was fantastic, but at the next night in front of a packed house in Hamburg I totally sucked. In order to learn all that material in such a short space of time I use a method that I\u2019ve been using for the best part of twenty years. I chart everything as quickly as I can in rough form making sure I get any key musical ideas down, Identify the hard bits then listen, listen, listen. My method has refined itself over the years but to be honest has developed in the way it has because I never seem to get enough time to sit back, relax and take time over learning stuff. I\u2019ve been showing it to my students lately, as I\u2019ve been whoring myself playing with a singer called Marty Shtrubel. Obviously being so busy I needed to learn his stuff at short notice so did it with my students to show \u2018em how we do it in the real world. They love it. I\u2019m hoping to post a YouTube video showing how to do it soon so by the time this interview goes to press it should be up. If any readers want to see it they can go to my website and find details. It works, believe me!\nWhat would you say are the highlights of your career to date?\nI have to say that I\u2019m exceptionally proud of having been involved in recording Morning Star with Spear of Destiny. It really was a great lineup and everything we did was great fun. I love listening to that album and it\u2019s full of dark, broody and tribal moments. It was also such a laugh to record. Also I\u2019m really proud of what I did on Grand National\u2019s album A Drink and a Quick Decision. Totally different to be setting up shed loads of drums including roto toms and octobahns, 5 pairs of hats and 14 snares, just doing pass after pass of freeform stuff then letting Rupert, the producer, sift through all the takes and turn it into something really cool and groovy. I knew all that gear would come in handy some day. I have to say though I did have a moment near the end of the first major tour with Buzzcocks. We were playing Sydney, and as I came around a corner and caught sight of the opera house I just thought, Wow I\u2019m on the other side of the world and I\u2019m here because of my drumming. That is completely what I dreamed of all the way along and I made it happen. That felt like a moment where I kind of realized I must know what I\u2019m doing at least to some extent otherwise I wouldn\u2019t have been there. After I dried my eyes and finished my little internal acceptance speech, however, the moment passed and I thought to myself, Get over yourself, Farrant, it\u2019s not like you composed something they\u2019re performing in the Opera house or anything, and my feet came straight back down to Earth with a large bang, which is no bad thing.\nWhat kind of qualities do you think a young musician needs to bring to the table to work successfully at a career in music, aside from the obvious drumming ability?\nI think there is a delicate balance to be struck between a kind of tough resilience and an artist\u2019s sensitivity. You have to be strong both mentally and physically. You have to be able to ride the knocks and become a musician with a good enough reputation to forge a career in today\u2019s music scene. You have to be really proactive and make sure that you\u2019re making things happen for yourself by getting out there as much as possible and being passionate and absorbed in whatever you\u2019re doing. But most of all you have to be genuine. Genuine passion and talent show through. There\u2019s no room for fake sincerity or bullshit. If I\u2019m truly honest, I think there\u2019s a lot to be said for just blindly stumbling forward into paths that excite you with an unflappable air of self belief that stops just short of arrogance. But then you must truly have the rock \u2018n\u2019 roll spirit burning deep inside you or you may as well stop now, get yourself a pipe and slippers and get yourself a job as an accountant in Cheltenham.\nIt should be noted however that almost all the musicians you\u2019ll ever meet seem to get along with other people pretty easily and are usually in possession of a twisted and sick sense of humor. Oh, and you must hate Chris De Burgh and have a repertoire of Stevie Wonder jokes, even if you think he\u2019s a genius. That makes me think, how does he know when he\u2019s asleep?\nI\u2019m in agreement of the Chris de Burgh comment, and we must find time to share our Stevie jokes sometime. So, what was your first pro gig?\nMy first pro gig that I can remember was playing in a local hotel on the seafront in Weston super mare two nights a week with a mate of mine. We were both about 13 or 14. He sang and played the organ and I sang and played drums. It must\u2019ve been awful. Thank god there was no YouTube then, otherwise I\u2019d die of embarrassment. We used to get five quid each a night and I remember I lost mine on the first night. I was gutted. It was all very Peter Kay, but it made us get out in front of an audience and learn from an early age to play for the people dancing. My dad was a saxophonist and he taught me that from an early age.\nExcellent, that\u2019s a proper apprenticeship, eh! What are your favorite styles of music to listen to when, dare I say it, you are chilling out?\nChilling out? What\u2019s that? I\u2019m just so busy these days I can barely remember chilling out. I do listen to music on the tour bus though. The last album was T.Rex's Dream Warrior. Before that was Joe Henderson Mode for Joe. Ooh, tell a lie. I recently found my old copy of UB40\u2019s Present Arms and made myself lie on the sofa and listen to the whole thing. Brilliant! It brought back a load of memories. UB40 were brilliant when they first hit the scene! I think this year for me has been the year of going back\u2014probably to do with having my first kid. I\u2019ve been listening to loads of Stones, loads of old jazz, and I totally got back into Souxsie and the Banshees again. Hmmmm\u2026 time to get into some new stuff this year. Any suggestions, readers? Please twitter me.\nSo what do you do to switch off from drums after a tour or just to take a break?\nI\u2019m afraid that just doesn\u2019t happen. I\u2019m literally involved in music and drums pretty much 24/7 in one way or another. But on the rare occasion that I get a little spare time I love hanging out with my family and mates and for a real treat I\u2019d get to see some comedy or go fly my kite. Is it weird that I actually don\u2019t ever feel like I need a break from drums and in fact feel like I don\u2019t get enough time to develop all the ideas I have as a drummer/musician?\nSo, Danny, before we finish I would just like to thank you for a really enjoyable and informative interview and wish you and Buzzcocks a successful year on the road. Just for our readers where can people visit you online?\nFolks can visit me online at www.dannyfarrant.com but please be patient as my website has only just been launched. The band is at www.buzzcocks.com. Come and say hi! I just wanna give a shout out to Protection Racket Cases and Aquarian Drumheads for their support.

        "raw_content": "Environment funding slashed by third since Coalition took office\nExclusive: WWF and ACF analysis shows Turnbull government plans to reduce environment spending to less than 60% of 2013-14 budget\n@adamlmorton\nTue 12 Dec 2017 12.00 EST Last modified on Tue 13 Mar 2018 11.54 EDT\nThe programs hardest hit by funding cuts are those designed to maintain biodiversity by protecting ecosystems and shrinking animal and plant populations. Photograph: Michael Hall/Getty Images\nSpending on environment department programs, monitoring and staff has been slashed by nearly a third since the Coalition won the election in 2013, with deeper cuts promised into next decade.\nWhile the federal budget has expanded by $36bn since Tony Abbott took office, funding for the environment has been cut by nearly half a billion dollars so far, an analysis by two conservation groups found.\nWhile the government allocated $1.4bn to environmental funding in the 2013-14 budget, there was a 30.2% drop in the 2016/17 budget down to $980m. It fell again in the 2017/18 budget to $945m. By 2020-21, the final year of the forward estimates period in May\u2019s budget papers, the Turnbull government plans to have reduced environment spending to less than 60% of 2013-14 figure. The estimated amount to be spent in the 2020-21 budget will be $825m.\nFederal spending trajectory\nAmong the programs hardest hit are those designed to maintain biodiversity by protecting shrinking animal and plant populations and ecosystems. Their funding is to be cut in half across the eight years.\nThe cuts are planned to continue despite the government\u2019s five-yearly State of the Environment report finding in March there was insufficient public support for environmental management and restoration programs. The report found climate change was altering the structure and function of natural ecosystems, and parts of Australia\u2019s natural estate were in poor or deteriorating condition.\nAustralia's greenhouse gas emissions highest on record\nAreas under pressure include the heavily populated coast, some urban growth corridors and land-use zones where grazing and invasive species are threatening biodiversity.\nThe budget analysis was set out in a submission to government by the Australian Conservation Foundation (ACF) and WWF Australia. ACF economist Matt Rose said it suggested the Coalition placed little value on environmental protection.\n\u201cThe government has no idea how important the environment is to the wellbeing of Australia, the Australian people, the economy and our sense of who we are,\u201d he said.\nRose said while government ministers in some portfolios built influence by arguing for greater resources for their department, allowing them to deliver positive outcomes, the opposite had been true for environment minister Josh Frydenberg and his immediate predecessor, Greg Hunt.\n\u201cWe should judge any environment minister, from any political party, on whether the health of the environment is better when they left the portfolio than when they were appointed,\u201d he said.\n\u201cWe\u2019re seeing rising carbon emissions, we\u2019re seeing unprecedented land-clearing, we\u2019re seeing threatened species declining with many on track to go extinct, and we\u2019re seeing less funding for people to get out there and build fences, do weeding and re-vegetate landscapes.\u201d\nProportional federal spending on environment and biodiversity\nFrydenberg responded that, on a per capita basis, Australia\u2019s emissions were at their lowest level in 27 years due to a \u201cstrong suite of policies\u201d. This included reducing potent hydrofluorocarbons, the Emissions Reduction Fund that pays businesses and farmers to make carbon dioxide cuts, a renewable energy target and a national energy efficiency plan.\nHe listed several environmental programs the government had funded: a $2bn Great Barrier Reef 2050 plan; the introduction of a national threatened species strategy overseen by a dedicated commissioner; an Antarctic program with a secure future that included new facilities on Macquarie Island and a replacement icebreaker.\n\u2018We have \u2026 maintained environmental standards while reducing red tape with a one-stop shop for environmental assessments,\u201d the minister said.\nAccording to the analysis, environment department spending will be 0.16% of the total budget by 2020-21.\n'Real jeopardy': independent panel lays into Murray-Darling basin management\nThe biggest cut in recent years was to a $946m biodiversity fund \u2013 a grant program funded by carbon price revenue introduced by Labor in 2011 to \u201cmaintain ecosystem function and increase ecosystem resilience to climate change\u201d. Then prime minister Kevin Rudd slashed it by $213m in July 2013 and the Coalition shut it later that year. Only about a third of the initial promised sum was spent.\nIn 2014-15, the Coalition also cut $471m over four years from the long-running Landcare program, which funds work on local projects tackling land degradation. Most of that money was to be redirected to environmental works by Abbott\u2019s $525m green army, made up of young volunteers and the unemployed, until it was announced last year that program would also be shut down.\nAbout $225m of green army funding was reclaimed as a budget saving, and $100m went back to Landcare under a deal with the Greens in return for their support for a backpacker tax.\nLandcare has taken a 33% annual funding cut. It once received $1bn over four years. From 2019, it will get the same sum over six years.\nThe environment group analysis does not include funding for climate change and energy programs because they were in a different department under the Abbott government but have subsequently been brought under Frydenberg\u2019s environment and energy umbrella. And it does not include work by the states or federal government agencies, including Parks Australia and the Murray-Darling Basin Authority.\nThe two environmental groups called for a significant boost in environmental investment in the 2018-19 budget. They called for a new $1.1bn environment fund to boost threatened species recovery, support the expansion and management of protected areas and improve Great Barrier Reef water quality.\nOther suggestions included an independent statutory authority to enforce national environmental laws and expanded scientific research into long-term bushfire mitigation strategies.",

        "raw_content": "Iran flexes military muscle with new drone\nElite revolutionary guards unveil reconnaissance and combat aircraft capable of reaching Israel\nIran's President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad speaking at the UN General Assembly in New York. Photograph: Shannon Stapleton/REUTERS\nIran has flexed its military might by showing off what it claims is a new \"indigenous\" reconnaissance drone capable of reaching Israel and launching a series of anti-warship missiles in the Persian Gulf.\nIn what appears to be a reaction to the recent naval exercise in the region by the US and its allies, Iran's elite revolutionary guards have unveiled an unmanned aerial vehicle, called Shahed-129 (or Witness-129), which is claimed to have a range of up to 2000 kilometres and capable of 24 hour flight.\n\"The new drone... can carry out combat and reconnaissance missions with its 24-hour non-stop flight capability,\" reported the website of Iran's state-run English language television, Press TV. \"The home-made aircraft is capable of hitting targets at a distance of 1,700-2,000 kilometers... [and] can be equipped with electronic and communication systems including cameras which can capture and send live images,\" it said.\nIran's semi-official Fars news agency, which is affiliated to the guards, also reported that the forces have successfully test-fired four anti-missiles in the Persian Gulf. Citing a guards' navy commander, Ali Fadavi, Fars said: \"The missiles were fired simultaneously at a sea target as large as a warship and sank it in fifty seconds.\"\nNews about Iran's new military advances comes as president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said during a visit to the UN general assembly in New York that his country did not take threats of an Israeli military strike seriously.\n\"We have all the defensive means at our disposal and we are ready to defend ourselves,\" he added.\nDespite a plea by the UN secretary general Ban Ki-moon, who warned the Iranian president recently to avoid \"incendiary rhetoric\", Ahmadinejad once again used his New York visit to make strongly worded statements about Israel, saying the country had no roots in the Middle East and would be \"eliminated\".\nA White House spokesman reacted by describing his comments as \"characteristically disgusting, offensive and outrageous\".\nIn reaction to increasing western economic sanctions and threats of war, Iran has resorted to sabre-rattling and threats to close the strait of Hormuz, a vital passageway in the Gulf where one-fifth of the world's oil passes in tankers.\nRecent miltary manoeuvres in the Persian Gulf by the US and its allies are seen as a practice to counter any threat from Tehran to disrupt activities around the strait. \"This exercise is about mines and the international effort to clear them,\" said commander of the US naval forces central command, Vice Admiral John Miller, last week.\nLast December, Iranian authorities displayed a US unmanned aerial vehicle, believed to be an RQ-170 Sentinel drone, which they claimed to have brought down electronically. Military experts questioned the veracity of Iranian claims, while the US insisted the drone malfunctioned and was not brought down by Iranian forces.\nIran previously claimed it would dismantle the US drone in order to study it but it was not clear on Tuesday whether the new Iranian reconnaissance aircraft had any linkes with the RQ-170.",

        "raw_content": "sylvi listhaugsocial media\nNorway's Justice minister Sylvi Listhaug. File photo: Tore Meek / NTB scanpix\nNorway's controversial justice minister on Wednesday withdrew a Facebook post that triggered outrage among survivors of the 2011 Ut\u00f8ya massacre and calls for a motion of no confidence against her in parliament.\nIn the post last Friday, Sylvi Listhaug, a member of the populist and anti-immigration Progress Party (Fremskrittspartiet, FrP), had accused the opposition Labour Party of considering \"the rights of terrorists (to be) more important than the security of the nation\".\nListhaug, whose party is a member of a centre-right coalition, was angry at Labour's rejection of a proposal to strip jihadists of their Norwegian citizenship without a court decision.\nThe post, which contained a photo showing threatening Al-Shabab militants, sparked outrage because Labour members had been targeted in 2011 in the worst attack on Norwegian soil since the end of the Second World War.\nOn July 22nd that year, right-wing extremist Anders Breivik, who once was a member of the FrP, killed 77 people in twin attacks: one targeting then-Labour prime minister Jens Stoltenberg's office in Oslo and another against a Labour youth camp on the island of Ut\u00f8ya.\nHours after Listhaug withdrew her post, Prime Minister Erna Solberg issued an apology on behalf of her government after coming under fire for not voicing unequivocal disapproval of her minister.\n\"On behalf of the government ... I wish to present my apologies because the rhetoric used by the government hurt people,\" Solberg, a conservative, told reporters.\n\"Norway has a special link with terrorism since July 22nd (2011). That means we have to pay special attention in discussions on terrorism, because we have people in society who have experienced it in the most appalling manner,\" Solberg said.\nBut the PM took six days to issue an apology on behalf of her government, having previously avoided commenting before then saying that the justice minister's post had \"crossed a line.\"\nOn Thursday, Solberg said she expected Listhaug to also apologise over the Facebook post.\n\"Sylvi Listhaug supports the government's apology. She will confirm that herself, you can expect that during the course of today,\" the PM told NRK's Politisk Kvarter programme.\nListhaug's message coincided with the release of the first film in Norway devoted to the 2011 atrocities.\nLabour leader Jonas Gahr St\u00f8re accused the minister of stoking \"the hatred that led to the July 22nd (massacre)\".\nSocialist Left party leader Audun Lysbakken said he would table a motion of no-confidence against Listhaug, a move that could put the minority government in a difficult situation, because its centrist allies, who have always been critical of Listhaug, would be forced to decide.\nPressured to apologise, the justice minister on Tuesday posted another message on Facebook saying she did not mean or intend to hurt anyone.\nShe finally withdrew the controversial post, arguing that rights issues prohibited the use of the Al-Shabab photo for political purposes.\nREAD ALSO: Norway's justice minister causes anger with 'rights of terrorists' Facebook post aimed at rivals",

        "raw_content": "Hackers disable Swedish prosecutor's website\nwikileaksjulian assangeaklagare.sehackerpaypal\nAssange supporters gather outside a London court on Tuesday\nThe website of the Swedish prosecutor's office pursuing WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange came under cyber attack on Tuesday in the latest salvo in a campaign by online supporters who have also struck PayPal and the Swiss Post Office bank.\n\"Our website was overloaded on Tuesday night and our hosting company then decided to shut it down. We don't know the cause of the overload, but are now looking into it,\" Karin Rosander, a spokesperson for the Swedish Prosecution Authority (\u00c5klagarmyndigheten) told the TT news agency.\nShe added that she had not yet received confirmation that the site outage was caused by a hacker attack.\nPandaLabs, the malware detection laboratory for computer security firm Panda Security, said the prosecutor's website, aklagare.se, was brought down by members of the loose \"cyber hacktivist\" group called \"Anonymous.\"\nThe attack on the Swedish prosecutor's website came as Assange, whose release of secret US diplomatic cables has sparked an international furor, was refused bail by a British judge over allegations of sex crimes in Sweden.\nAs of 6.30am Wednesday morning, the prosecutor's website remained inaccessible, but by 8.30am it was up and running again.\nSean-Paul Correll, a threat researcher at PandaLabs, said Anonymous had dubbed the attacks on the websites of the Swedish prosecutor's office, PayPal and the Swiss Post Office bank as \"Operation Avenge Assange.\"\nHe said they were part of a battle being waged online between supporters and opponents of WikiLeaks, whose website has come under repeated cyber attack itself and has seen US companies gradually withdrawing their support.\n\"We have two sides of this attack spectrum,\" the PandaLabs researcher told AFP in a telephone interview.\n\"We have the Anonymous guys on one side fighting for freedom of information and freedom of press,\" Correll said.\n\"And we have other people who consider themselves patriots who are trying to defend the greater interests of the United States.\"\nAsked if he believed there was US government involvement behind the cyber attacks on the WikiLeaks website, Correll said \"it's tough to say.\"\n\"It would just be speculation because no one has come forward to say that there is some type of involvement,\" he said.\nHe noted that an early attack on the WikiLeaks website had been claimed by a known hacker who calls himself the \"Jester.\"\n\"The Jester doesn't necessarily have to be one person,\" he said.\n\"It could be a group of people, of patriots.\"\nWikiLeaks has been under cyber attack since Assange began releasing the first US documents last week, forcing it to repeatedly change addresses and Web hosts.\nAmazon dropped WikiLeaks from its servers last week and PayPal blocked financial transfers to the site while the Swiss Post Office bank on Monday closed accounts held by Assange, the Australian-born WikiLeaks founder.\nPayPal's official blog, ThePayPalBlog.com, came under distributed denial of service, or DDoS, attack on Saturday and was down for at least eight hours, PandaLab's Correll said.\nHe said that as of 6:00 pm (2300 GMT) on Tuesday, the Swiss Post Office bank site had been down for more than 20 hours.\n\"Someone actually posted on Twitter and asked the attackers to stop their attacks so they can conduct their banking,\" Carroll said.\nIn a classic DDoS attack, a \"botnet\" of zombie computers, machines infected with viruses, are commanded to simultaneously visit a website, overwhelming its servers, slowing service or knocking it offline completely.\nCorrell said the Swedish prosecutor's website was attacked by over 500 computers at the direction of Anonymous. \"It literally went down the second they announced the target,\" he said.\nThe PandaLabs researcher said Anonymous included anti-copyright activists who took part in \"Operation Payback,\" which began in September and involved cyber attacks on the websites of the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) and the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).\n\"This past weekend they decided they were going to fight against anybody anti-WikiLeaks,\" said Correll, adding that he has been following Anonymous \"from Day One.\"\n\"Anonymous doesn't have a central authority, there's no hierarchical structure,\" he said.\n\"People describe it as having a kind of hive mind mentality.\"\n\"They use social networks to recruit members and chat infrastructure,\" he said, adding that \"right now there's over 1,000 people in their chat room participating in their attacks.\"\n\"These guys are very resourceful,\" Correll said, adding that he expects their retaliatory activities to go beyond just DDoS attacks.\n\"I expect a laundry list of targets,\" he said. \"They'll research security vulnerabilities on a website. They've defaced websites in the past so I expect to see all sorts of things coming in the future.\"\nAssange remanded by London court\nWikiLeaks founder arrested in London\nAssange to fight extradition to Sweden",

        "title": "State of the Union Glosses Over Obama's Foreign Policy Failures | The Nation",
        "raw_content": "State of the Union Glosses Over Obama\u2019s Foreign Policy Failures\nOn Tuesday night, Obama glossed over his failures in foreign policy.\nI\u2019ll give President Obama one-and-half cheers for the (very brief) foreign policy section of the State of the Union address. To his credit, he didn\u2019t raise the specter of China as a threat to American security interests, instead using China\u2019s economic progress and technological innovation in computers, high-speed rail, and higher education as a challenge to boost American investment in education and technology. He didn\u2019t try to scare Americans with some hyped-up, existential threat from Al Qaeda or Iran. On Afghanistan, he said: \u201cThis July, we will begin to bring our troops home.\u201d\nBut in a speech carefully calculated to reach out to elusive, independent \u201cmoderate\u201d voters, replete with his vision for a resurgent America that maximizes its own technological know-how and its ability to educate its citizens, Obama ignored his own administration\u2019s dismal failure in foreign policy.\nHe didn\u2019t exactly trumpet American \u201cexceptionalism,\u201d and he didn\u2019t proclaim America\u2019s mission to remake the world, in so many words, but he inserted into his speech an odd phrase: \u201cNo one rival superpower is aligned against us.\u201d Without saying so, he portrayed the United States, therefore, as the world\u2019s lone superpower, an errant vision that reinforces the view of the neoconservatives and liberal interventionists that America has some vague responsibility for the rest of the world. \u201cAmerican leadership has been renewed and America\u2019s standing has been restored,\u201d he proclaimed. Really? Nowhere in his speech did Obama reflect on the necessary, humbling vision of the United States as a declining world power whose future depends on its reaching a series of accommodations with at least five or six other rising powers and regions.\nAs one sign of his administration\u2019s accomplishments, Obama cited Iraq, where \u201cThis year\u2026we [will] finish the job of bringing our troops out of Iraq.\u201d Perhaps so, but in its wake America is leaving a shattered nation, with hundreds of thousands dead, its infrastructure destroyed. More than anything else, as he said in an earlier speech, Obama sees Iraq as a place where it\u2019s time to \u201cturn the page,\u201d but the country America leaves behind is an open sore, a virtual carcass that its neighbors, including Iran, Saudi Arabia and Turkey, plan to carve up and feast on.\nOn Afghanistan, the other war, Obama put a rosy gloss on the catastrophically mismanaged war, in which more and more Afghan provinces have fallen under Taliban control or influence, with impregnable safe havens in neighboring Pakistan feeding an insurgency that won\u2019t go away, in a country whose government is irreparably corrupt and feckless. To Obama, though, everything\u2019s fine:\n\u201cIn Afghanistan, our troops have taken Taliban strongholds and trained Afghan security forces. Our purpose is clear: By preventing the Taliban from reestablishing a stranglehold over the Afghan people, we will deny Al Qaeda the safe haven that served as a launching pad for 9/11. Thanks to our heroic troops and civilians, fewer Afghans are under the control of the insurgency.\u201d\nMeanwhile, Pakistan\u2014that near-failed state, whose economy barely exists, drowned in a flood of biblical proportions last year, where terrorism runs rampant and the military is in league with the Taliban and assorted terrorist groups aimed at India\u2014well, here\u2019s all Obama would say about Pakistan: \u201cIn Pakistan, al Qaeda\u2019s leadership is under more pressure than at any point since 2001. Their leaders and operatives are being removed from the battlefield. Their safe havens are shrinking.\u201d\nOn Iran, while thankfully not unleashing the Tehran boogeyman at American listeners, he managed one sentence: \u201cBecause of a diplomatic effort to insist that Iran meet its obligations, the Iranian government now faces tougher sanctions, tighter sanctions than ever before.\u201d Needless to say, \u201ctougher sanctions, tighter sanctions\u201d is not a strategy, and so far at least Obama has failed to make any progress on d\u00e9tente with Iran.\nThen, in one breathtaking sentence, Obama summed up the rest of the world: \u201cWe\u2019ve reset our relationship with Russia, strengthened Asian alliances, built new partnerships with nations like India.\u201d\nUnfortunately, Obama\u2019s foreign policy is in ruins. Nowhere in the speech did he mention his complete failure to make progress on the Israel-Palestine front. The administration\u2019s growing effort to surround and contain China, by arming Taiwan, building alliances with rival Asian powers, conducting military maneuvers with Japan and South Korea, reopening ties to the vicious Indonesian secret police\u2026 well, none of that made the speech. His pledge to start pulling out of Afghanistan six months from now was heartening, but Obama faces bitter opposition to the pullout from his own generals and from the Republicans, and nothing he said provides any comfort that he\u2019s willing to stand up to that pressure.\nAnd, while he included the phrase \u201cdefense spending\u201d in his litany of areas that might see cuts\u2014\u201cdomestic spending, defense spending, healthcare spending, and spending through tax breaks and loopholes\u201d\u2014and praised Secretary of Defense Gates for agreeing \u201cto cut tens of billions of dollars in spending that he and his generals believe our military can do without,\u201d he ignored the fact that Gates\u2019s modest trims in the defense budget will still allow the bloated Pentagon budget to continue its sharp upward curve since the late 1990s, even without including Iraq and Afghanistan war costs.\nIn all, in a speech designed to score political points on the domestic front, last night Obama seemed to be channeling Ray Price, Timi Yuro and Eddy Arnold: \u201cMake the world go away.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "How to Determine Fair Value for a Route Business\nOver the last several years we have sold a variety of route businesses. The types of routes sold include vending routes, landscaping routes, bread routes, snack routes, wholesale supply routes, pool routes and several others. One of the most common questions we receive from our sellers is how to determine a fair asking price for their route business.\nWe have listed some guidelines for pricing a variety of businesses below. There are a number of variables that can impact a business\u2019 price. Each business is unique and may not fit into the \u201ctypical\u201d pricing structure. The outline below should be treated as a rough guide or estimate.\nVending routes are often priced and sold based strictly on their gross annual sales volume. Most vending routes operate with a 40-50% profit margin. If the business sells for one times its annual gross sales, that typically allows the buyer to earn back their investment in about two years. Of course other factors such as the number of accounts, flexibility of schedule, quality of machines, etc. can play a large role in the value as well.\nBread routes are typically sold based on their average weekly sales volume and a local, market based multiplier. For example, a Pepperidge Farm route doing $10,000 in weekly sales might sell at a multiplier of 15 times if it is located in Omaha, NE. That same route, with the same $10,000 weekly sales volume, might sell for a 25 times multiplier if it is located in New York City, NY.\nEach company and market will use different multipliers based on historical sales of similar routes in the area. Larger routes typically sell for a slightly higher multiplier since they generate more income. Routes that are more attractive\u2026possibly with a more flexible schedule, lower number of accounts, better company financing\u2026will typically have higher multipliers as well.\nSnack/Cookie Routes\nSnack, cookie or pastry routes are generally priced the same way as bread routes\nLandscaping Routes\nLandscaping routes are very unique since they often include a more significant amount of equipment. A number of other factors come into play that may not be considered for bread, snack, vending or other routes. For example, are the accounts under contract? If so, what services are under contract and what amount of revenue is \u201cguaranteed\u201d with service agreements. Small local routes will typically have an earn back period of less than one year. Larger routes, those with 3+ employees and significant equipment included, may have earn back periods closer to 2-3 years.\nIf you have any questions about how to price your route or the best way to find a serious buyer, please contact us today. You can always find our full list of routes for sale at this page as well. Thank you!",

        "raw_content": "Advocates hail judge\u2019s decision in woman\u2019s assisted death appeal\nA 77-year-old woman seeking medical assistance in dying has a \u201creasonably foreseeable\u201d natural death, a judge declared Monday in an attempt to clear up uncertainty that left her doctor unwilling to perform the end-of-life procedure for fear of a murder charge.\nThe decision has been hailed by advocates for clarifying a confusing part of the assisted-dying legislation.\nLawyer Andrew Faith, seen here in 2016, says the court\u2019s decision that a 77-year-old woman has a \u201creasonably foreseeable\u201d natural death, is a relief for his client. The judge's ruling is an attempt to clear up uncertainty that left his client's doctor unwilling to perform the end-of-life procedure for fear of a murder charge. (Colin Perkel / THE CANADIAN PRESS FILE PHOTO)\nTwo doctors found that the woman, known under a publication ban as AB, qualified for medical assistance in dying.\nBut the first doctor later said he was \u201cuncomfortable\u201d performing the procedure because another doctor had disagreed that the woman met the requirement of a reasonably foreseeable natural death, and because of the vagueness of the term \u201creasonably foreseeable.\u201d\nSuperior Court Justice Paul Perell said the issue is the doctor\u2019s \u201cabundance of caution and apprehensive misunderstanding\u201d of the medically-assisted dying legislation put in place a year ago.\nTo be reasonably foreseeable, the person\u2019s natural death doesn\u2019t have be imminent or within a specific time frame or be the result of a terminal condition, he said.\n\u201cThe legislation is intended to apply to a person who is \u201con a trajectory toward death because he or she a) has a serious and incurable illness, disease or disability; b) is in an advanced state of irreversible decline in capability; and c) is enduring physical or psychological suffering that is intolerable and that cannot be relieved under conditions that they consider acceptable,\u201d he said.\nAB\u2019s case clearly qualifies as she is an \u201calmost 80-year-old woman in an advanced stated of incurable, irreversible, worsening illness with excruciating pain and no quality of life,\u201d he said.\nShe was diagnosed with osteoarthritis when she was 43 and the pain got progressively worse over her life. By 2015 the pain for which she takes fentanyl and morphine became unbearable \u2014 she could not sit up at a table and often woke up screaming in pain.\n\u201cI will remain here in this room forever, in pain, until someone allows me to die,\u201d she wrote in an affidavit. \u201cI have lived a good life and a long life . . . I simply want to quietly move out of life, end my intolerable suffering and go home to God.\u201d\nAB\u2019s lawyer Andrew Faith says the court\u2019s decision is a relief for his client and hopes her physician will have the reassurance he needs.\nHe also hopes the decision will bring much-needed clarity for other doctors with patients in similar circumstances.\nIt is quite clear now that we are not talking about specific time-frames like six months or a year, says Shanaaz Gokool, the CEO of Dying with Dignity.\n\u201cThe government has said repeatedly you don\u2019t have to have to be terminally ill, you don\u2019t have to have a time frame, the prognosis that you have doesn\u2019t have to be what leads to your natural death,\u2019 she said.\n\u201cWe have found an inconsistent application when it comes to the eligibility criteria . . . and I think this decision will go a long way to extinguish that sort of myth.\u201d\nGokool says there remains a shortage of doctors and nurse-practitioners who are involved in medical assistance in dying and hopes this decision will provide some comfort for both patients and doctors.\nGokool has come to know AB over the past few months and says she admires her determination and her perseverance.\n\u201cI will miss her if and when she decides to have a medically-assisted death,\u201d Gokool said. \u201cShe is a woman of a lot of courage.\u201d\nIn the decision, Perell said that his declaration would not interfere with prosecutorial discretion as argued by the Crown and will not exempt a medical professional from following the criteria laid out in the legislation.\n\u201cAll the court can do in the circumstances of the immediate case is to clarify what Parliament meant in (the legislation) so the Physician-1 and other physicians have no misunderstanding about how to comply with the legislation,\u201d Perell said. \u201cThere is no floodgates concern because the court need do this only once for whatever benefit it may provide to AB and others.\u201d",

Never abusive at all towards me. I only know him as a really good, loving, caring guy who is very, very protective of the people that he loves. It\u2019s hard because I feel like \u2014 that\u2019s my experience. And it\u2019s been a very long time.\u201d\nDepp has been embroiled in the divorce proceedings that began when Heard, his wife of just over a year, filed divorce papers on May 23. Days later, the actress obtained a restraining order against the \u201cPirates of the Caribbean\u201d star, claiming domestic violence.\nAlso Read: Amber Heard Drops Request for Spousal Support From Johnny Depp\nIn papers filed with the court, Heard claimed that Depp had been abusive throughout their relationship, most recently on May 21, when he allegedly arrived at their Los Angeles home inebriated and high, and struck her in the face with a cell phone.\n\u201cI don\u2019t know how you feel about it, but it\u2019s like anybody who says anything about it is a victim-blamer,\u201d Ryder added. \u201cI wasn\u2019t there. I don\u2019t know what happened. I\u2019m not calling anyone a liar. I\u2019m just saying, it\u2019s difficult and upsetting for me to wrap my head around it. Look, it was a long time ago, but we were together for four years, and it was a big relationship for me. And we have a lot of mutual friends. I just never heard anything like that about him. But, again, I feel like even saying that, I\u2019m going to get death threats or something. I\u2019m not on social media, so maybe I will be spared.\u201d\nRyder and Depp got engaged after costarring in 1990 Tim Burton drama \u201cEdward Scissorhands,\u201d then broke up in 1993.\n\u201cIt\u2019s weird because imagine if someone you dated when you were \u2014 I was 17 when I met him \u2014 was accused of that. It\u2019s just shocking. I have never seen him be violent toward a person before,\u201d she said. \u201cIt\u2019s just hard to picture. The only word I can come up with is unimaginable. You know with certain people you hear something and go, \u2018I can see that.\u2019 But this isn\u2019t that. So anyway this is the first time I\u2019ve said anything so I don\u2019t know. I can only offer my own experience. It\u2019s such a serious, horrible thing to be accused of.\u201d\nDepp\u2019s representatives have denied all accusations and claimed that Heard \u201cis attempting to secure a premature financial resolution by alleging abuse,\u201d adding, \u201cAmber\u2019s anger certainly cannot drive this dissolution proceeding.\u201d\nMost recently, Heard dropped her request for temporary spousal support.

        "raw_content": "Pressuring kids to excel in one sport may lead to disappointment later on\nSuper Bowl champion Russell Wilson played football, basketball, and baseball in high school.\nIt's common for student-athletes and parents alike to assume that focusing on one sport in high school will lead to greater chances of success on the college or professional scene. But this may not be the case.\nA study done by the University of Wisconsin is one of the first of its nature, but it could be a warning for parents in the future. It was published in the American Journal of Sports Medicine just this month.\nEric Post, research assistant at the Wisconsin Injury Sports Lab and coauthor of the study, got involved in this research as he noticed an increased trend in youth sports towards early specialization.\nThe study focused on 302 high school student-athletes. They were put into categories based on their specialization, or the number of sports they participated in. Of the 302, 105 (34.8%) ranked as low specialization, 87 (28.8%) were moderately specialized, and 110 (36.4%) were defined as being highly specialized.\nThe research team found that athletes from smaller schools were much more likely to fall into the low specialization category. Only 25% of athletes from smaller schools were recognized as being high specialization, while 48% of the students at large school fell into the same category.\nIt also revealed that athletes considered highly specialized were more than twice as likely than the other categories to report a history of overuse knee and hip injuries. Participating in a single sport for more than 8 months during the year was an important factor in high injury risk of highly specialized athletes.\nAnd there isn't any certain sport that will keep you healthier than others, according to Post and the research group.\n\"Injuries are not necessarily better or worse for children participating in different sports, just different. Acute type injuries such as concussions, fractures, or sprains are more common in contact sports while overuse injuries like tendinitis, bursitis, or stress fractures are more common in non-contact sports like running or swimming. There can be very mild or very serious injuries in both of these categories.\"\nFor this reason, it's important to stress healthy training in whatever sport you or your child is playing.\nNumber of student-athletes recruited by Urban Meyer to Ohio State's football program that were single-sport versus multi-sport athletes in high school.\nTwitter/OhioVarsity\nThis news doesn't play well for a kid focusing all of their efforts on one sport in attempts of gaining playing time at the collegiate or professional level. Many prevalent voices from the athletic world (like Pete Carroll, Seattle Seahawks head coach) have spoken in favor of recruiting kids in multiple sports. They see it as higher competitive drive and adaptation of more muscle groups.\nPost has seen this in his experiences as an athletic trainer, as well.\n\"From conversations that we've had with coaches, it does seem like in some sports, coaches are very concerned about the amount of wear and tear athletes they are recruiting have sustained as a result of year-round sport participation from an early age. Therefore, it does seem like some athletes may have an advantage in terms of being recruited because they either played multiple sports or didn't sustain career-ending injuries due to specialization.\"\nThe research group hopes not to discourage kids from playing sports, but to help them be as successful and healthy as possible.\n\"Playing sports as a child is a great way to encourage physically active behavior as an adult and to develop important social and life skills. The United States is in the midst of an inactivity and obesity epidemic, and physical activity has been shown to be an effective treatment for a variety of diseases. We don't want to discourage anyone from participating in sports, rather we just want parents and coaches to have as much information as possible to make sport participation as safe as possible.\" says Post.\nThe group also recognizes that while parents take a lot of blame for the trend in early specialization, they are also very concerned about the youth sports atmosphere and feel little power to change the system. They feel that if they don't get their child into organized systems at an early age they will lose opportunities to play when they are older.\nThe next step for this particular lab group is to survey parents regarding attitudes towards specialization as well as to follow a cohort for an entire school year to further report on injury associated with specialization status.\nIt's okay to take your sport seriously, but imperative to rest or cross-train in order to prevent overuse injuries before the call for the big league even happens.\nMore: Biology College Sports Specialization High School Sports",

        "title": "Measuring the risks of eating raw cookie dough - INSIDER",
        "raw_content": "An expert explains why he still eats raw cookie dough, even after an E. coli scare\nBrian Zikmund-Fisher,\nslgckgc/Flickr\nThe following three statements are all true: Eating cookie dough can be dangerous, even after we've dealt with any raw eggs. I am a public health faculty member and an expert in health risk communication. My family and I eat raw cookie dough regularly.\nIf it seems implausible that all three of those statements can be simultaneously true, let me explain.\nTo start, when most people think about health risks and cookie dough, they think about raw egg. Eggs can be contaminated with salmonella bacteria, and food safety recommendations encourage people to cook eggs until the white and yolk are firm in order to kill any bacteria.\nBecause of this concern, when my kids and I make cookie dough, we never use regular eggs. Instead, we use eggs that have been pasteurized to kill any harmful bacteria without actually cooking the egg itself. (A great public health innovation, if you ask me!) So, I wasn't worried about the eggs in the cookie dough.\nNow, there is another risk to consider in relation to raw cookie dough: the risk of the flour itself. Over the past two months, General Mills, Inc. first initiated and then expanded a voluntary recall of flour found to be contaminated with E. coli bacteria. While contamination of raw flour is rare, it can happen. Wheat grows in fields close to animals. When they \"heed the call of nature,\" as the FDA put it, wheat can become contaminated. In this recent outbreak, 38 people have been sickened since December 2015 and some have been hospitalized because they ate the recalled flour raw, often in the form of cookie dough. One went into kidney failure.\nAn important safety message \u2014 or a half-baked idea?\nSuch recall notices are extremely important. When we know that a product is contaminated, we can and should make absolutely sure to get rid of it. As soon as I read the recall notice, I checked whether my extra flour was recalled. It wasn't. If it had been, or even if I hadn't been sure, I would have thrown it out, no questions.\nHowever, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration later also published a notice for consumers warning the public about eating cookie dough. Specific statements included: \"the bottom line for you and your kids is don't eat raw dough,\" \"don't give your kids raw dough or baking mixes that contain flour to play with\" and \"don't make homemade cookie dough ice cream.\"\nNot surprisingly, this story got picked up by many news outlets. What was interesting about these stories, however, was not their content but their negative tone. For example, The New York Times stated \"F.D.A. Ruins Raw Cookie Dough for Everybody.\" Another example: InStyle's article was titled, \"Buzzkill Alert: Don't Eat Raw Cookie Dough.\" The first line of the article reads, \"Don't shoot the messenger.\"\nHere's the question: Is it appropriate for public health officials to imply that no one should eat cookie dough (something that I, and apparently many others, enjoy) because of this risk?\nA right to choose?\nI'm the last person to say that communications about public health risks are unimportant. Public health officials have a duty to warn people about the health risks associated with raw egg and even raw flour. When we have evidence that specific people are at risk, public health officials need to actively promote the actions that those people can take to minimize the identified risk. Doing so supports both public health objectives and individual decision-making.\nBy contrast, when a public health agency unequivocally states \"don't eat raw dough\" (regardless of whether flour or other ingredients were affected by a recall or not), it is implying (falsely) that no one could rationally disagree.\nWell, I'm a public health faculty member, and I disagree.\nI know that some public health officials will be horrified by my statement. They will believe that I am undermining their message and giving people permission to put themselves at risk unnecessarily.\nBut the key word of the previous sentence is \"unnecessarily.\" Whether something is necessary or not is not a scientific judgment. It is a value judgment. An FDA official may personally believe that eating raw cookie dough isn't important and choose to never eat it. That is their choice. At the same time, I can believe that eating cookie dough (made from flour known to be not part of the recall and pasteurized eggs) is something that I enjoy enough that I'm willing to put myself and my children at (a very small) risk to do.\nOf life and risk\nAs public health experts, we don't want people to treat food recalls like math problems and estimate their likelihood of getting sick. If you have affected food, you need to act. Period.\nBut if I know that my flour is not recalled, then there is no specific reason to believe that the flour is not OK to eat raw. The only risk is the very small, baseline risk \u2014 for example, that the flour has been contaminated by a different and as-of-yet unknown source.\nWe can't pretend that we live our lives without risk. I put myself and my children at risk every time we get into our car. Every time we eat sushi or rare hamburgers. Every time one of us takes medications. Every time we ride a bike or play soccer.\nYet, many of us choose to do those things anyway, while minimizing risk when we can (for example, by wearing seat belts and bike helmets). We choose life and risk over safety and a life a little less enjoyable. It is not irrational to treat cookie dough the same way.\nSo, to my fellow public health practitioners: Let's keep working on informing the public about health risks that they may not anticipate or appreciate. Motivating people to take immediate action about specific food recalls. Encouraging people to minimize risks.\nAt the same time, let's all please remind ourselves that our goal is not to minimize all risk, no matter the cost. Our goal is to maximize life. Sometimes maximizing life means warning people that their flour is contaminated and making sure they throw it out. Sometimes maximizing life means letting them enjoy some (carefully prepared) cookie dough without shame.\nNOW WATCH: This gigantic chocolate chip cookie is baked to order and served in a cast iron skillet\nMore: The Conversation Health Kitchen Cookie Dough",

Allen denied the claims in a counter op-ed, also published by the New York Times in 2014.\nAnd while Allen was never charged for the alleged assault, people still criticized the 25-year-old's decision to work with the controversial director.\nThat said, others defended Gomez's decision and did not see a problem with the collaboration.\nThe director's troubled past has not prevented notable actors\u2014such as Kristen Stewart, Blake Lively, and Scarlett Johansson\u2014from staring in the big screen behind Allen.\nSEE ALSO: Here are Selena Gomez's favorite foods\nMore: Contributor StyleCaster Culture Selena Gomez",

        "title": "Spoon - the Gimme Fiction interview",
        "raw_content": "\u201cIt\u2019s Rock n\u2019 Roll,\u201d says Jim Eno, drummer with American band Spoon, determinedly, when asked what sort of music the four-piece play. One man\u2019s rock n\u2019 roll, though, is another man\u2019s indie pop, so it\u2019s worth pausing for a moment to refine the definition. \u201cIf I was going to characterise it a certain way\u201d, he continues, \u201cI\u2019d say rock n\u2019 roll, but we tend to try to use space quite a bit. That\u2019s one thing we\u2019ve done from start to finish. A lot of bands like to put a lot of stuff, over and over, on every song. We may do that during the recording, but during the mixing we\u2019ll try and strip it back down\u201d. The Spoon maxim for making records is, says the softly spoken Eno, \u201conly put on the record what needs to be on there to make the song better\u201d.\nIt\u2019s a formula (and I use the word advisedly) that seems to have worked well for the Austin, Texas based band, with their current album Gimme Fiction receiving rave reviews both Stateside and in Europe. It\u2019s the band\u2019s fifth album, which may come as a surprise to more recent fans of the band, as the trilogy of Girls Can Tell (2001), Kill the Moonlight (2002), and this year\u2019s Gimme Fiction receive the lion\u2019s share of critical attention towards the band.\nAt the heart of every great rock band there is, it seems to me, a dilemma. Different in each one\u2019s case, but a necessary evil pushing the creative juices. The dilemma for Spoon is their \u2018sound\u2019. It is both defining and limiting. They are, like all great bands, instantly recognisable. Short, crafted songs driven by a tight interplay between rythm and lyricism. The band was formed by songwriter Britt Daniel and the self-same drummer Eno, who remain its creative pole while other members have come and gone. Gimme Fiction sounds like a band perfecting its art, and at the same time perhaps bringing a creative period to a close.\n\u201cI don\u2019t look at this as a culmination of the three albums,\u201d Eno is quick to point out, though. \u201cI look at it as a progression. To me it\u2019s a little thicker than Kill the Moonlight, there are still some stripped down songs, but there are multi-track guitars in there on some songs, making it more of a rock record, maybe. I don\u2019t know,\u201d he says, hesitantly. \u201cIt\u2019s not like we had that idea when we went into the recording, it depends on the songs that Britt brings in, and how we approach them.\u201d\nMuch has been made in the press about the three year hiatus between Kill the Moonlight and Gimme Fiction. Perhaps too much, keeping in mind that a touring band like Spoon will spend the best part of two years on the road, before turning their minds to a new album. The making of Gimme Fiction, though, wasn\u2019t without its ups and downs. Initially the band planned on working with different producers, taking a break from the collaboration with Mike McCarthy, producer of albums for And They Shall Know Us By The Trail of Our Dead, and Adam Freedland, who worked on their previous two albums. While the band may have wanted to stray further from the formula they had established, the sessions weren\u2019t entirely successful. \u201cWe\u2019ve a very specific idea of how we want the records to sound,\u201d Eno says, almost apologetically. \u201cFor example, we buy a lot of analogue gear for the studio. So, if you\u2019re listening to stuff and it doesn\u2019t sound how you expected it to sound, like \u2018I wish that drum sound was tougher\u2019 etc, then that\u2019s a problem. There\u2019s also personalities involved. I could be doing a drum take, and ask \u2018how\u2019s that?\u2019, and maybe the guy producing says \u2018it\u2019s great\u2019, when really I know it wasn\u2019t good. You want a producer that\u2019s at least going to raise the bar a little bit.\u201d\nAnd so, after a certain amount of experimentation, McCarthy was called in to co-produce with the band.\u201dMike McCarthy is a huge reason why our records sound as good as they do. He\u2019s a great engineer, he gets great sounds. At the same time he\u2019s a great producer, in the sense of giving help on lyrical ideas, vocal takes, drum takes, and this whole idea of stripping things down. He\u2019s an important part, and maybe the last three records have had a common sound because of that interaction between the three of us.\u201d\nThe resultant album is packed full of persistent tunes. It\u2019s not breaking new-ground, necessarily, but it\u2019s a foolish idea to presume that all great records must. Songs like The Two Sides of Monsieur Valentine and Sister Jack stress the things that make Spoon a band worthy of attention. William Faulkner once pointed out that, next to poetry, the short story was the hardest form to master because it requires a lean and essential approach. Such is also the case for the short song \u2013 if ill timed, being too short, it comes across as merely a starting point, an idea that would make a good song. If too long, as is the case with 90% of bands who stumble in search of a succinct ending, it suggests a lack of craft. Spoon play like a precision instrument, never outstaying their welcome nor shortchanging the listener.",

        "raw_content": "I adapted this post from a talk that I gave in my ward on June 24, 2018.\nWe See the Same Things Differently\nI do not know what it is like to live without glasses. That\u2019s because I have been wearing glasses for longer than I have memories. There\u2019s a photo of me\u2014it might be hanging up in my parents\u2019 house\u2014when I\u2019m less than two years old. I\u2019m straddling a toy horse with wheels on it, standing up, looking back at the camera, and I have prescription goggles strapped to my little baby head.\nThe reason that the doctors knew I needed glasses when I was that young was that I had a serious infection that damaged my eyes. I had surgery at the time, back when I was a baby, but it wasn\u2019t really successful. As a kid I needed really powerful prescriptions and even with coke-bottle glasses and bifocals it was still impossible to get my eyes to point in the same direction.\nI had surgery again when I was a teenager and the results were better. I\u2019m not nearly as cross-eyed as I used to be, and my glasses aren\u2019t as thick as they once were. But my eyes still don\u2019t cooperate with each other. For the most part, I don\u2019t notice or care about this, but it still bugs me when I see myself in photos and only one eye is looking at the camera or when I try to call on someone to answer a question or say a prayer and they don\u2019t know if I\u2019m calling on them because one eye is looking at them and the other eye is looking at someone else.\nAll these years of growing up with uncoordinated eyes messed with my brain. For people with healthy eyes, both eyes look at the same thing at the same time, and your brain takes the two images\u2014one from each eye\u2014and it merges them together to give you binocular vision. It helps with depth perception. But when one eye is pointing in one direction and the other eye is pointing in the other direction, the brain can\u2019t merge the pictures together. Eventually, my brain gave up. I don\u2019t have binocular vision anymore.\nThis isn\u2019t a huge deal. I\u2019m absolutely incapable of hitting a baseball except by blind luck (pun intended) and I can\u2019t see 3d pictures or 3d movies. The way 3d technology works, is that they show slightly different things to your left eye and your right eye and rely on your brain to merge the pieces. It\u2019s like hacking your brain to trick it into seeing 3d. But since my brain doesn\u2019t do that anymore, the hack doesn\u2019t work on me. Back in the 1990s, I could stare at those Magic Eye books for as long as I wanted. Eventually, other people would see 3d objects emerge out of the randomness, but I never saw anything. I can sit in a 3d movie and put on the 3d glasses, but all I see is a regular, 2d movie.\nOn the other hand, I do have a completely useless super-power now. Since my brain only looks out of one eye at a time, I can pick which eye to see out of. Just by thinking about it, I can bounce my vision back and forth between my left and right eye. It\u2019s like the whole world is shifting left and then right and then left again, but nothing\u2019s actually changing. Like I said: it\u2019s a totally useless super-power.\nI see the world around me, just like all of you do, but I see it in a very slightly different way.\nSame Book, Different Story\nThe topic I was given to talk about today was the impact of the Book of Mormon on my life. The only way to do that, really, is to imagine what my life would be like without the Book of Mormon. But I tried, in preparing for this talk, to imagine my life without the Book of Mormon, and I couldn\u2019t do it.\nTheoretically, I know there was a time when I saw the world in 3d, but I can\u2019t remember it. The way I see the world now is the only way I can ever remember seeing the world.\nI don\u2019t remember the first time I read the Book of Mormon, and I have no idea how many times I\u2019ve read it. I was probably around 8 or 9, and so I do have some memories of life before the Book of Mormon, but not really. I remember falling off of the top bunk of the bed in the single-wide trailer where we lived while my dad was still in grad school. There were Legos scattered on the floor, and I landed flat on my back on top of them. It was my first experience having the wind really knocked out of me, and as I lay there on the ground it felt like there were tight cords wrapped all around me, squeezing the air out and preventing me from breathing. And what I thought to myself was: \u201cThis must have been what Nephi felt when his brothers tied him up in the desert.\u201d\nSo, even before I\u2019d actually read the Book of Mormon, the stories from it were already part of how I understood the world around me. It wasn\u2019t just the Book of Mormon, by the way. When I was like 4 or 5 years old\u2014just before starting kindergarten\u2014I would spend all day playing with my toys on the floor while listening to the Old Testament on tape. Yes, the Old Testament. We didn\u2019t have too much in the way of electronics in those days, but we had a cassette player and some headphones with a really, really long cord and I would just listen to tape after tape of old-school, fire-and-brimstone, Abraham-sacrificing-Isaac Old Testament. And while we\u2019re on the topic, let me tell you that the story of Abraham sacrificing Isaac comes across in a whole new light when you\u2019re hearing it as your father\u2019s eldest son and you\u2019re only 4 years old. That one left an impression! Another time, when my dad came home from school and we were eating dinner together, I told him that it was really important that he not marry a Canaanite woman. I knew that he was already married and so it probably wasn\u2019t an issue, but the prophets had seemed really insistent on that point, and so I wanted to make sure he got the message. It seemed prudent to make sure we had all bases covered in that regard, just in case.\nI\u2019m not the right person to ask about how the scriptures have impacted my life\u2014the Book of Mormon or others\u2014because I don\u2019t know any differently. It\u2019s like asking me what my is like without seeing in 3d. How should I know? It\u2019s all I\u2019ve ever known.\nBesides, even if I could remember a life before and after reading the Book of Mormon, I\u2019m not sure that it would really mean anything to anyone but me. Just like we can all look around this chapel and see the same things, but see them in different ways, when we read the Book of Mormon we\u2019re all reading the same book, but we each have our own individual understanding of what we read.\nWe read the Book of Mormon at different points in our lives, for different reasons, with different questions, and with our own assumptions and hopes and fears. And so the Book of Mormon becomes something unique for all of us.\nSo I decided to turn the topic around. My kids are reading the Book of Mormon for the first time this year. And I want to talk about the things that I hope they learn from reading it.\nLesson 1 \u2013 God Is Real, and He Is Involved in Our Lives\nGravity is real. It\u2019s invisible and we never see it directly, but it\u2019s definitely there and we can see it\u2019s effects. But gravity isn\u2019t very interactive. It doesn\u2019t care about you.\nGod is not like gravity. God is not a distant, powerful creator who set the world in motion and walked away. God cares about you. God reacts to you. God has plans for you, and those plans involve you as an active participant.\nThe story I like here is the Brother of Jared picking out 16 bright stones to use for light while they were in the watertight barges crossing to the Promised Land. I don\u2019t think God intended for the Brother of Jared to pick that solution to the problem. I think He would have been just as happy if the Brother of Jared had brought some regular old lamp oil and said, \u201cplease touch this lamp oil so it never runs out\u201d or something else. But the Brother of Jared shows up with an armful of rocks and God just rolled with it.\nThat\u2019s the template I want my kids to have when they are working with God. First, that they are supposed to work with God. Second, that there isn\u2019t necessarily one right answer. There doesn\u2019t have to be a perfect solution. There are goals, there are obstacles, and there\u2019s limitless scope for us to use our talents and our inspiration and our friends and everything we can think of to get past the obstacles to the goals, and God will work with us collaboratively in that process.\nDon\u2019t worry about doing the best thing. Just try really hard to do good things, and know that God will have your back.\nLesson 2 \u2013 Prophets Are Not Superheroes\nLet me get back to that story of Nephi being bound in the wilderness. It\u2019s a great story. Nephi, Mr. Large-in-Stature himself, gets tied up and so he prays to God and asks for the strength to burst the ropes. He\u2019s imagining himself going all He-Man and using his big muscles. Instead, if you read the actual scripture, it just says that the ropes loosened.\n17 But it came to pass that I prayed unto the Lord, saying: O Lord, according to my faith which is in thee, wilt thou deliver me from the hands of my brethren; yea, even give me strength that I may burst these bands with which I am bound.\n1 Nephi 7:17-18 (emphasis added)\nIt\u2019s such a human moment. Nephi has one thing in mind, and he\u2019s got faith and he\u2019s got good intentions, but his plan and the Lord\u2019s plan aren\u2019t coinciding this time, and what he gets is something surprising, totally unexpected, and not what he\u2019d actually asked for.\nIt\u2019s important to keep in mind that prophets are people like us. They aren\u2019t a separate breed. It\u2019s important to remember, because if we forget and start to think that prophets are superheroes then we might think of ourselves as just sidekicks or maybe even innocent bystanders. But there are no superheroes, no sidekicks, no bystanders. There are just children of God, and we all have the same potential and we all matter just the same to our Heavenly Father and Heavenly Mother.\nThis should comfort us.\nAnd it should also make us a little bit nervous. If there are superheroes around, then regular people are off the hook. But if all we\u2019ve got is regular people, then all the regular people are still on the hook.\nLesson 3 \u2013 Life Isn\u2019t Fair and Things Don\u2019t Make Sense\nThis is gonna get just a little bit dark, but bear with me.\nWhen Christ was crucified a whole list of cities in the Book of Mormon get buried in avalanches, drowned in the sea, or burned by fire. And sure, those are the wicked cities, but what: do you think that there were no children in them?\nOr how about Alma and Amulek and their preaching? When the people of Ammonihah didn\u2019t like it, they took the women and children and burned them alive using the scriptures as fuel. Amulek wants to save them, but Alma says no. \u201cThe Spirit constraineth me that I must not stretch forth mine hand.\u201d\nSo, the same God who spared Isaac, who shut the mouths of the lions when Daniel was in their den, who made Sahdrach, Meshach, and Abednego impervious to flame told Alma the this time the kids had to burn. I don\u2019t know why. It\u2019s tough. It\u2019s hard. It\u2019s nobody\u2019s favorite chapter in the Book of Mormon.\nBut I\u2019m glad that story is in there. Because life is like that. There are people\u2014right now\u2014who are going through more suffering than I can even imagine. I have nothing to complain about. I\u2019ve had it pretty easy my whole life, but there are other people who confront a stack of tragedies a mile high. If the Book of Mormon didn\u2019t have that kind of story in it\u2014an awful, terrible one that doesn\u2019t make sense to us\u2014than it wouldn\u2019t really be about the real world. It would be about a kind of Disney-version of the real world where the good guys always win, the story always has a happy ending, and everything makes sense.\nI believe the good guys will one, in the end. I believe the ending will be happy, one day. I believe it will all make sense, ultimately. But it doesn\u2019t here and now.\nThese stories are hard, but I\u2019m glad they\u2019re there because I hope they can prepare us to face the small disappointments or large tragedies that we might face in our own lives. We all go through hard times, and you may as well learn to start wrestling with questions that have no easy answers now, because they will never ever go away.\nLesson 4 \u2013 Jesus Is the Christ and the Restoration Is Real\nThe Book of Mormon is another witness of Jesus Christ. It\u2019s job is to testify of him and of his mission. Along the way, it also serves as a sign of Joseph Smith\u2019s prophetic calling. We\u2019re supposed to know prophets by their fruits, and the Book of Mormon is one of Joseph Smith\u2019s. If it testifies of Christ, then Joseph Smith was a prophet of Christ.\nI can\u2019t remember reading the Book of Mormon for the first time, but I have clearer memories of praying about it for the first time. I was older, probably about 16, and I realized that I needed to know for myself. I couldn\u2019t rely on my parents\u2019 testimony. I needed my own. Just like Nephi wasn\u2019t satisfied with Lehi\u2019s vision. He wanted his own.\nThe biggest obstacle for me was how much I wanted it to be true. It\u2019s hard to pray for an answer when you really, really want to get one particular answer. It took me a long time to work up the courage to be willing to receive \u201cno\u201d as the answer to the prayer. When I believed that I was willing to tell my parents, \u201cI don\u2019t believe this is true\u201d (if that\u2019s the answer that God sent me), then I felt like I was ready to pray.\nWell, I\u2019m here, so obviously that\u2019s not the answer that I got. But it\u2019s not like I got a once-and-done, testimony-is-solid-forever answer, either. I got, just enough. Just enough of a feeling to keep going. Just enough light to see the next step.\nIn general, I hope my kids don\u2019t follow my example. I hope they do better. But in this case, I hope they do what I did.\nThese are some lessons I hope my kids learn, but when and if they do learn these lessons I know they\u2019re going to learn them in their own way. They won\u2019t see things exactly the way that I do. They will see things a little bit differently.\nThat\u2019s how it goes. We\u2019re all here worshiping together. We all made the same covenants when we were baptized by the same authority into the same Church. We\u2019re all trying to be obedient to the same God and we\u2019re all washed in the same blood. But we don\u2019t see eye-to-eye quite yet.\nWe will, one day.\nThy watchmen shall lift up the voice; with the voice together shall they sing: for they shall see eye to eye, when the Lord shall bring again Zion.\nIsaiah 52:8 and Mosiah 12:22\nOne day it\u2019s going to make sense, and one day we\u2019ll understand, and one day we\u2019ll be one. But in the meantime, in the interim, we\u2019re all a little bit alone, struggling to reach out to each other and learn how to come closer together. Even when we have testimonies of the same thing, the testimonies aren\u2019t identical.\nThat\u2019s one of the most important things scripture does. It gives us something in common. God could, in theory at least, write an individualized book for each one of us. But he didn\u2019t. There are a lot of reasons for that, but one of them is to give everyone the same guiding star.\nI can\u2019t just give my kids my testimony. I can\u2019t just forklift the lessons I learned from my mind and heart into theirs. They have to get their own testimonies. They have to learn their own lessons. And so their testimonies and lessons will be different from mine.\nBut not entirely different. There\u2019s going to be some overlap. There\u2019s going to be some common ground. We are, I fervently hope, going to share one faith. That is one of my highest hopes. That reading the Book of Mormon is going to be part of the process of my family coming together. The older you get, the more life pulls family members\u2014kids from parents and siblings from each other\u2014in different directions. That\u2019s entropy. That\u2019s the chaos of the world.\nScripture, testimony, sacrament, covenants, the atonement: these are the forces that pull in the other direction. These are the things that keep us together. These are the things that can\u2014one beautiful day when Zion comes again\u2014make us all one.\n\u2190 10 Questions Interview with Devery Anderson\nGospel Haiku \u2192\n11 comments for \u201cUntil We See Eye to Eye\u201d\nThanks, Nathaniel. This is a fantastic post.\nThanks for this, I appreciate your insights and you express them beautifully.\nThis is so beautiful. Thank you.\nWell, I\u2019ve disagreed with a lot of things on your posts over the last few years. But it seems we do share that lack of binocular vision, and the ability to switch the dominant eye providing the image to our brains\u2026\n\u201cScripture, testimony, sacrament, covenants, the atonement: these are the forces that pull in the other direction. These are the things that keep us together.\u201d\nI am an atheist ex-Mormon. This has not been me experience at all. Just the mere mention that I didn\u2019t believe in God or the Mormon Church drove my parents and believing siblings to completely ostracize me. And I never once criticized their beliefs or openly showed contempt towards them for so believing. I am not alone either. I have heard similar stories from other ex-Mormon atheists. The teachings of the Mormon Church condition its believers to have high intolerance for family members and friends who leave it. The whole idea of making a covenant only seems to give license to other members to heavily shame family members for supposedly breaking it. The teaching that families can be together forever seems to cause people to have more fear than joy. For it causes them to worry excessively if a family member decides no longer to participate that that family member becomes an impediment to the eternal family (which is how my in-laws treated me and even told my wife to divorce me) and must therefore be cast out.\nThe Mormon Church\u2019s teachings and ordinances have high potential to tear mixed-belief families apart.\nI\u2019m truly sorry for your experiences, K Wilson. While it\u2019s not my place to judge, it certainly seems from what you\u2019ve said as though your family was not following the teachings of the Church. I happen to have read a talk yesterday that is relevant. It\u2019s a talk from the April 1981 General Conference and it includes the following story:\nA good friend shared this story about how she learned the deeper meaning of love. Their family has always been active in the Church, trying their best to live the commandments. They were shocked and disappointed, however, when their daughter became engaged to a nonmember. The next day the mother was telling a good friend about her feelings. She knew her daughter\u2019s fiancee was a fine young man, but she felt angry, hurt, betrayed, and numb and did not want to give her daughter a wedding or even see her. She said that the Lord must have guided her to talk to her friend because she received this reply:\n\u201cWhat kind of a mother are you that you only love her when she does what you want her to do? That is selfish, self-centered, qualified love. It\u2019s easy to love our children when they are good; but when they make mistakes, they need our love even more. We should love and care for them no matter what they do. It doesn\u2019t mean we condone or approve of the errors, but we help, not condemn; love, not hate; forgive, not judge. We build them up rather than tear them down; we lead them, not desert them. We love when they are the most unlovable, and if you can\u2019t or won\u2019t do that, you are a poor mother.\u201d\nWith tears streaming down her face, the mother asked her friend how she could ever thank her. The friend answered, \u201cDo it for someone else when the need arises. Someone did it for me, and I will be eternally grateful.\u201d\nThat is the Church\u2019s teaching on the topic. It seems as though your family didn\u2019t get the memo. I\u2019m sure that it probably came from a good place\u2013they were afraid of what it would mean, for them and for you\u2013to have you turn away from the faith. Maybe they had the very best of intentions. But their response (again, based on what you told me) came from a place of fear and was not in line with the teachings of their own faith.\nI\u2019m very sorry for what you went through\u2013are going through\u2013but this \u201cexcessive worry\u201d is not what the Church teaches. It\u2019s what ordinary members, failing to live up to the teachings of the Church, do out of their human imperfections.\nNorman Naime\nWe all suffer or are redeemed through our biases. True those biases change as we acquire knowledge and understanding, we then see biases as part of the learning curve. Thanks for your insights, I enjoyed it.\nReally liked your post Nathaniel. Makes me think of the fact that Scripture\u2019s function is pretty complicated with regard to the world it builds us. I agree about the potency of it\u2019s unifying potential. But there\u2019s a whole lot in the scriptures like the experience of Alma and Amulek and plenty of commands like don\u2019t marry canaanites\u2014things that are difficult and things that resist our attempts to understand or make sense of or see as divine. I suspect it\u2019s precisely this struggle that scripture calls forth for us collectively and the proliferation of perspectives that result that is part of the point. I rather suspect that the unity we experience in Zion won\u2019t be on account of or exemplified in all of us having binocular vision.\nThanks for sharing this. It made my Sunday.\nJust another response to K. Wilson from a mother of 5 who has sorrowed to see 4 of her children leave the faith. K\u2013 I\u2019m so sorry for the fear and worry and rejection you have felt from your family. I am sad to admit I also fell short of showing the level of unconditional love I should have shown when navigating this situation with my own children. Nathaniel is correct- we have been taught better than this. But sadly fear leads many of us to fall short. My advice is to be patient and try to be generous in your assumptions. Don\u2019t stall in your judgment of your family- give them a chance to progress in your relationship with one another. It may take some time for them to get their head around the new reality. For our family it has helped to focus on other areas where we have mutual interest where we can rebuild connections and continue to find joy together. It has taken a few years and a lot of love and generosity on both sides to get there but I think we have made good progress.",

        "raw_content": "Cool AirBnB getaways in and around Stark County\nJessica Holbrook CantonRep.com business writer @JHolbrookREP\nIf you're seeking a romantic night away or quick staycation, the area is full of options.\nSometimes it's good to get away.\nBut maybe not too far away.\nIf you're seeking a romantic night away or a quick staycation, the Stark County area is full of options.\nAccording to data from vacation rental site AirBnB, hosts in Ohio earned a combined $50,000 in supplemental income and welcomed about 46,000 guests in 2018. In Stark County, hosts on the website welcomed 4,000 guests last year.\nWe talked with the proprietors of three local vacation rentals who offer folks a home away from home.\nHigh-end history\nThe apartment above the former Peter Shear's in downtown Canton is designed to take visitors back in time.\nThe 4,000-square-foot space, which includes 2,000 square feet of entertainment area, was originally built in the 1870s. It has been restored to reflect that era's opulence.\n\"Pictures don't do it justice,\" said Patrick Huth, who owns the building, which also houses H2 Huth & Harris Wine Merchants and Salumeria di Torre Italian Deli & Market, with wife, Whitney Harris.\nThe apartment was originally restored in the 1990s to be as historically accurate as possible. The previous owner, Harris' uncle, installed dual gas and electric lights and wood stoves (which actually run on gas) for heating.\nThe uncle never moved in. And the apartment sat unused until the couple purchased the building in 2017.\nThe apartment boasts two bathrooms, a living room, bedroom, formal dining room, study, kitchen and sun room. The top floor is dedicate to entertainment, with a 19th-century pool table.\n\"It's pretty amazing ... It's actually quite stunning to see that kind of thing. You don't expect it to be there and it's not where you'd consider an, I'd say, upscale apartment or rental to be.\"\nThe space, listed for $290 per night on AirBnB, has hosted everything from surprise birthday parties to restaurant guests who didn't want to make the trek home to those attending shows at the nearby Palace Theatre, Huth said.\nIt's proximity to the Pro Football Hall of Fame means that it's always occupied during enshrinement festivities.\nThe apartment tends to attract guests interested in history and architecture, many of whom own old homes themselves, Huth said.\n\"It's not just a place to stay, it's more an experience,\" he said.\nFind details at bit.ly/2I1vaGA.\nRyann Wells knows the importance of unwinding.\nWells is the proprietor of Riverside Hideout, a shipping container tiny house in Dover. She's also a nurse practitioner at Community Hospice.\n\"Doing that job, I've learned that life is short and we need to take time to disconnect and reconnect,\" she said. \"Self care is a big thing for me, so I put out kind of a self care model. There's no Wi-Fi, there's no internet, no TV. Some cellphone carriers are not great out there.\"\n\"I want people to just be together and have fun,\" she added.\nWells and her family own the Riverside Hideout property and live nearby.\nShe brainstormed the idea of a tiny house retreat with her co-workers. She and the family took the plunge last year, breaking ground on May 1 and opening for guests in late October. The house has been popular, with guests booked nearly every day.\nRather than the barn-style tiny house rentals popular in nearby Amish Country, Wells opted for a shipping container she purchased on Craigslist.\n\"You can you can buy anything on Craigslist,\" she laughed.\nThe family renovated with handcrafted furniture and plenty of thrifted and re-purposed items. The cozy, comfortable rental has space for four guests. Wells is in the process of finishing an outdoor deck and fire pit. The space is dog friendly.\n\"I just wanted something that was very, very different,\" she said.\nRiverside Hideout is located near the Tuscarawas River -- guests have a view from the house -- and near towpath trails. Guests also can visit the nearby canoe livery, go hiking or take a short trip to the nearby Lockport Brewery. Weekend guests get a ticket for a free drink, she said.\nLots of guests bring food and other supplies and just spend the weekend enjoying each other's company.\n\"They've found it to be a retreat,\" she said. \"That's definitely my goal.\"\nThe house books for $89 per night on AirBnB. Details at riversidehideout.com\nBed and brew\nWhen Amanda and Andy Conrad would travel to a new brewery, they'd face a dilemma.\nThe couple, who own and operate Sandy Springs Brewing Co. in Minerva, wanted to try new beers and explore new towns, but didn't want to drink and drive, so they'd look for a place to stay overnight.\n\"It was hard to find places in these small towns to stay,\" Amanda Conrad said.\nThe Conrads, alongside friends Ross and Renae Blair, are addressing that problem at their own brewery.\nThey just opened the Brewer's Quarters. The vacation rental, in an adjacent building in downtown Minerva, is a studio apartment perfect for the beer enthusiast.\nThe Conrads and Blairs gutted the space. They found plenty to get excited about, like original brick facade dating back to the 1880s and a painted wall advertising what was once a nearby hotel.\n\"It's such a beautiful space,\" Amanda Conrad said.\nThe space is \"industrial chic.\"\n\"We tried to stay true to the building, it's history. We tried to incorporate the brewery. It's a brewery-themed brewer's quarters,\" she said.\nThe space sleeps five and features a full kitchen and digital rain shower with body jets. Guests can select a mini keg of Sandy Springs beer for the room, which is available on tap through a kegerator. They'll also get plenty of brewery swag.\nOther touches include soap made with Sandy Springs beer -- \"It smells amazing,\" Conrad said -- and fresh pure water in beer cans.\n\"Basically all you have to do is bring the clothes on your back,\" Conrad said. \"We try to have every amenity we could think of to make it an upscale stay for sure.\"\nThe owners are working to open a second rental, a three-bedroom apartment, next door.\nThe space rents on AirBnB for $199 per night.

        "raw_content": "Change may be hard, but especially in education, change is necessary. With the ongoing rise of distance education, the evolution of technology, and the continued desire for students to get into good colleges, high schools need to keep up with the times. Administrators in schools are typically the agents of change which means they are the ones who must push through the discomfort and take the steps to make the changes happen.\nWhat can administrators do to help make change happen?\nPart of why change can feel overwhelming is because of the size of the task and the number of people that the change potentially impacts. Administrators need to be prepared mentally and practically when it comes to making changes, whether that\u2019s in how they\u2019re running their school, the technology they adopt, or other decisions that affect their teachers and families.\nI encourage agents of change not only to be brave, because that willingness for change gives you an edge over other schools, but also want to remind you that you can start simple. Even 15 minutes a day of planning and executing can help make change happen.\nWhat if you\u2019re making changes in technology\nAs distance learning continues to grow in popularity, and more technology is developed, there can be uncertainty about adopting it. When you\u2019re faced with this sort of potential change, look to others who have gone through it, asking questions and getting support, along with trying out the technology to see if it works for you. Transcript Maker not only gives you a 14-day free trial, but we\u2019re also very supportive in helping you get up and running, customizing your transcript if needed.\nWhen it comes to making change, courage in leadership is necessary. On the podcast, we help you consider why and how you might want to take steps toward something new, even if it\u2019s uncomfortable to begin with.",

        "raw_content": "For Pug\u2019s Sake: Everything You Need To Take Care of Your Pug\nOver the past decade, pug\u2019s have made their way to the centre of dog lover\u2019s hearts. Who can resist their squished up little faces, stubby little legs, and funny little curly tails? If you\u2019re not convinced yet, just take a quick look at how they climb the stairs. Utterly adorable! So, whether you have a Pug already and fancy brushing up on your knowledge of the breed, or are considering taking a Pug in as your newest family member, here\u2019s everything you need to know about the lovable little breed.\nPugs are a member of the toy group of dogs. They are truly miniature, with only larger pugs growing any taller than one foot. They\u2019re also light, weighing in at about 14-18 pounds. But don\u2019t let that fool you. They are a lot of dog in a compact package. Unlike other toy breeds like the Yorkshire Terrier or the Chihuahua, they are stocky and sturdy on their feet. So while they are adaptable to living in smaller space, you need to ensure they have plenty of open floor space to get around in.\nPugs aren\u2019t exactly one of the most independent dogs. They were intentionally bred as companion dogs. So if you\u2019re planning on adopting or buying a pug, make sure that you have the spare time and commitment to be able to pet them, provide them with plenty of cuddles and devote most of your attention to them. They make perfect lapdogs for people who work from home and the elderly.\nAs a small breed, pugs predictably don\u2019t need all that much exercise. You should aim to give an adult pug, two twenty minute walks a day. This can be brisk and is an easy routine to get into: you can take one short walk in the morning and one short walk at night.\nThe majority of pugs are healthy dogs, however, due to negligent breeding practices, the breed can be more prone to conditions such as hip dysplasia, eye disease, patellar luxation and Pug Dog encephalitis. However, if you work with a responsible breeder, they will be able to give you insights into seeing the early signs of these conditions. Like all dogs, pugs should be covered by the best pet insurance that you can afford. Check out http://www.easipetcare.com/ for more information, including insurance policies and treatment prices. You need to ensure that you can keep up with these payments so that your pet is always covered. Also remember the basics, like microchipping, regular flea treatments and worming.\nPugs shed. We cannot emphasize this enough. So if you\u2019re planning on having a Pug, you should be prepared to vacuum regularly and have a lint roller at hand to get fur off your clothes, furniture and pretty much everything else within the vicinity of your four-legged friend. If you have allergies, you might like to opt for a more hypoallergenic dog that doesn\u2019t moult fur. Because pugs shed so much, however, they have relatively low-level grooming needs. They are a brush-and-go dog. You won\u2019t have to get them trimmed and you will only really have to bathe them for a freshen up or if they roll in the mud.\nAlways think carefully before introducing a dog to your family.\nPrevious Post Family Time: Fun Things To Do With The Little Ones This Summer\nNext Post Relocation Innovations: Moving Home Is Easier Than Ever",

        "raw_content": "MiFID II in a nut shell\nMiFID II \u2013 the what, when and why\nIf you work in the financial sector, chances are you've heard of MiFID II by now. If you haven't, don't fret \u2013 this post has you covered. Whether you're aware of MiFID II or not, it will soon be affecting your organisation and time is of the essence.\nLuckily, as expert MiFID II mobile recording partners for some of the largest financial organisations in the world, Truphone knows a thing or two about the new regulations. Here, we explain what exactly MiFID II is, when it comes into play and how you can be prepared.\nMiFID II, or the second Markets in Financial Instruments Directive, is a new set of legislative regulations. Adopted by the European Commission, the aim is to prevent breaches, disorderly trading and market abuse in the financial sector. It brings the existing regulations (MiFID) up to speed following the financial crisis and in light of developments in the financial sector.\nWhen does MiFID II take effect?\nMiFID II is in force from 3rd January, 2018. This may be over half a year away still, but if your organisation is set to be impacted by this, the clock really is ticking.\nWho does MiFID II affect?\nMiFID II affects a range of firms that provide or advise on financial instruments or services in the EU. You'll be impacted if you're:\nSome smaller financial firms, such as small independent financial advisors, will escape some of the more onerous regulations requiring them to voice record all of their calls and conversations. They will still have to keep a manual log of all transactions however.\nWhat are the MiFID II requirements?\nMiFID II requires organisations to adopt a range of practices that are already part of financial regulations in countries like the UK. As well as keeping full records of all transactions and trades, now financial organisations must keep full records of the conversations leading up to a transaction.\nOne of the key requirements of the MiFID II regulations is the need for an all-encompassing call recording solution. You will be required to:\nKeep records of these calls for five years \u2013 seven years if requested by an NCA.\nTell your clients or customers that you are recording their calls, along with providing them with recordings if requested.\nThese measures will relate to all calls where you intend to instigate a trade or provide a service. It will also likely include portfolio managers.\nMiFID II recording explained\nUnder MiFID II regulations, all communications that are intended to lead to a transaction, even if a transaction doesn't ultimately occur, must be recorded. This means that mobile call recording must be in operation at all times to meet the regulation requirements.\nMany call recording solutions can impact on call quality, creating delays or interference in the line. Other solutions use apps, which members of staff may forget to turn on.\nThankfully, Truphone's solution uses our unique and patented Call Forking technology. This ensures that there's no degradation in call quality and every single call and SMS from your phone is recorded on either your on-site server or hosted in our cloud - for you to access at any time.\nAnother legal requirement of MiFID II regulations is that you play a pre-recorded message to your customers, making them aware that the call is being recorded. Truphone's solution offers a variety of options, in multiple languages, to meet your organisation's protocol.\nFinally, just like our network, our recording solution is completely global, with every single call being recorded - no matter where you are.\nA mobile recording partner that will help you meet your business' needs\nAs mobile recording experts with industry leading patented technology, we're confident we can help your business \u2013 no matter how large or small \u2013 meet the MiFID II regulations, seamlessly and securely.\nFor more information on adapting to the new MiFID II regulations, request a call back or continue reading about Truphone Mobile Recording.",

A couple of years ago ahead, Disney confirmed that they will be developing a new trilogy following this one, and that The Last Jedi\u2019s director Rian Johnson will be working on them.\nSometimes Apple holds an event in the early part of the year where they announce hardware refreshes for existing products.

However for those who want to know what happened after that, you might have heard that a Breaking Bad movie is in the works.\nDisney+ Will Feature Non-Disney Content At Launch\nDisney\u2019s upcoming streaming service Disney+ is expected to play home to exclusive Disney content, which is probably going to be one of its selling points.

It\u2019s interesting to note that the streaming figures have jumped even as [\u2026]\nGuardians Of The Galaxy 3 Director Won\u2019t Be Taika Waititi\nTaika Waititi, who directed Marvel\u2019s Thor: Ragnarok, won\u2019t be in the director\u2019s chair for Guardians of the Galaxy 3. He has himself confirmed that the project, which has been on hold since its director James Gunn was fired, will not see him behind the camera. He referred to it as \u201cJames\u2019 film.\u201d\nApple is currently developing their own video streaming platform. The company has been going around acquiring shows to add to its catalogue, but despite Apple\u2019s size and resources, this has to be a daunting task given that the company doesn\u2019t really have much experience in that field, since streaming would be a different ballgame compared to selling shows and movies ala carte.\nApple Job Listings Show An Increase In \u2018Streaming\u2019 Positions\nWe know that Apple is working on a streaming service that could possibly be announced in the next few months. Now thanks to job listings spotted by 9to5Mac, it shows just how serious Apple is about their upcoming service.

This could create new concerns given that the NHS was hit particularly hard by the WannaCry virus earlier in the year.\nIt also pointed that some of these organisations \u2013 which include NHS trusts, police forces, ambulance services and energy suppliers \u2013 could be liable for fines of up to \u00a317 million or 4% of their global turnover, under the Government\u2019s proposals to implement the EU\u2019s Network and Information Systems (NIS) directive from May 2018.\nReal life disruption\nThe company\u2019s director of product management Sean Newman said: \u201cCyber attacks against national infrastructure have the potential to inflict significant, real life disruption and prevent access to critical services that are vital to the functioning of our economy and society. These findings suggest that many such organisations are not as cyber resilient as they should be, in the face of growing and sophisticated cyber threats.\u201d\nThe exercise also suggested that many CNI organisations are vulnerable to distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks. 51% of respondents said they did not detect or mitigate short duration surgical DDoS attacks on their networks, and just 5% admitted to experiencing DDoS attacks on their networks in the past year (to March 2017).\nCorero said that if the attacks lasted less than 30 minutes \u2013 as experienced by many of its customers \u2013 the real figure could be considerably higher.\nThe company sent out 338 FoI requests in March; 175 organisations did not respond.",

Machine learning focuses on the development of computer programs that can access data and use it learn for themselves. Machine learning is the science of getting computers to act without being explicitly programmed. This course provides a broad introduction to machine learning, Artificial Intelligence, datamining, and statistical pattern recognition. Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) are two very hot buzzwords right now, and often seem to be used interchangeably. They are not quite the same thing, but the perception that they are can sometimes lead to some confusion.\nTo better understand the uses of Machine Learning, consider some of the instances where machine learning is applied: the self-driving Google car, cyber fraud detection, online recommendation engines like friend suggestions on Facebook, Netflix showcasing the movies and shows you might like, and \u201cmore items to consider\u201d and \u201cget yourself a little something\u201d on Amazon are all examples of applied machine learning. With the constant evolution of the field, there has been a subsequent rise in the uses, demands, and importance of machine learning. Big data has become quite a buzzword in the last few years; that\u2019s in part due to increased sophistication of machine learning, which helps analyze those big chunks of big data. Machine learning has also changed the way data extraction, and interpretation is done by involving automatic sets of generic methods that have replaced traditional statistical techniques.

Considering city plans, architectural works, landscape formations and modes of inhabitation over the time in which the Gold Coast has been peopled, it considers the role of architecture in carrying the city forward. Its main focus is on the contemporary city and the conditions that have given rise to its character - high rise, bad taste and skewed towards the beach edge.\n- Lavishly illustrated with over 150 colour illustrations, this accessible history provides any visitor to the Gold Coast with an insightful and comprehensive guide to this dynamic city and its architecture\n- Through its study of the Gold Coast, the book puts forward a compelling case for the key role architecture plays in the contemporary city, its development and financial success",

        "raw_content": "Uzuma Ingredients Black Tea\nJust like other types of tea, with the exception of herbal teas, black tea is made from the leaves of the tea plant Camellia sinensis. The leaves of black tea get their colour as a result of being fully oxidised, unlike green tea where the leaves remain green. The processing of black tea is similar to that of making other teas; the leaves are aerated, withered, rolled, and oxidised, sometimes in multiple repetitions. However, black tea undergoes particularly extensive oxidation, which endows it with its dark colour and characteristic flavour.\nBlack tea contains many valuable compounds such as antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals that give it many nutritious properties. Despite the growing popularity of other types of tea such as green and white tea, black tea still accounts for over 90% of all tea sold in the West. If you like black tea, you can consume it in various ways. People who enjoy drinking black tea often add milk and sugar. You can also add herbs or dried fruits to black tea to give it extra flavour.",

        "raw_content": "Budget maintains freeze on foreign aid, but creates new lending institution\nFulani street childen of Accra photo by Danny Kresnyak\nOTTAWA \u2014 Finance Minister Joe Oliver's election-year budget Tuesday extended Canada's freeze on foreign aid to the world's poorest people, but it also established a new development finance institution.\nThe institution, or DFI, would complement Canada's international development priorities, but aid agencies say such a mechanism is fraught with risks and is no substitute for overseas development assistance that goes directly towards alleviating poverty.\nThe government will invest $300 million over five years in the profit-driven, financial lending institution that will be housed within Export Development Canada.\nCanada is the last G7 country to have such an institution, which will give loans to companies operating in low- and middle-income countries.\nToronto's Engineers Without Borders, which has advocated for a DFI in Canada, welcomed the announcement. but Boris Martin, the group's chief executive, said it would be most effective \"when it works in tandem with official development assistance.\"\nThe most recent analysis by the Paris-based Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development said Canada's level of overall aid spending had fallen to its lowest level in more than a decade.\nThe OECD pegged Canada's 2014 aid spending at 0.24 per cent of GDP, well below the United Nations target of 0.7 per cent. The United Kingdom, by comparison, has met the 0.7 target two years in a row.\nFive years ago, the Conservative government imposed a five-year freeze on foreign aid in order to slay the deficit \u2014 a freeze that was scheduled to end this year.\nDave Toycen, president of World Vision, said important gains have been made in helping poor countries in the last 25 years such has halving the rate of child and maternal mortality, but governments need to do more.\n\"Further success depends on funding support we can count on,\" Toycen said. \"The race to save lives is not over and the next leg will be even tougher.\"\nThe budget said private-sector investment is essential in helping \"achieve meaningful development outcomes that raise people out of poverty and put them on the road to prosperity.\"\nOne Canadian aid agency official, speaking on condition of anonymity because they did not want to be seen as criticizing the government, said foreign aid simply can't be left to the benevolence of private business interests.\n\"They have a role to play in development, particularly when it comes to big projects,\" said the official, who added they can't be relied upon to invest in projects that won't turn a profit such as in the education and health sectors.\nOxfam Canada's Caroline Marrs said there are real risks associated with DFIs.\n\"Oxfam's recent report on the World Bank's private sector arm documented tremendous abuse involving sexual violence, land grabs and other very disturbing outcomes of private-sector development projects that were neither accountable nor successful by any measure,\" she said.\nOther aid officials said they want the new DFI to follow international standards of aid effectiveness.\n\"It is critical that this new structure is built according to the principles outlined in the ODA Accountability Act, with a central focus on poverty reduction over any other concerns,\" said CARE Canada President Gillian Barth.\nCicely McWilliam of Save the Children Canada said trillions of dollars will be needed to end extreme poverty and preventable child deaths, requiring the private sector, governments and civil society to work together, \"based on aid effectiveness and accountability principles, including for private sector actors.\"",

But while the Tony Kushner\u2013penned production was a shoe-in for Best Revival of a Play (and won), Roth was quick to admit that one of his favorite moments was also one of the more unexpected: when the teenage survivors of the Parkland, Florida, school shooting sang \u201cSeasons of Love\u201d from Rent. \u201cPart of why I love the theater is that you can hold all of those emotions in your hand at the same time,\u201d Roth said of the surprise musical performance. \u201cYou can have joy and pain and hope and fear and seven other unidentifiable emotions all at once, and that\u2019s truly special.\u201d Andrew Rannells, another Tonys regular, also hit a stylish note in an emerald green Paul Smith suit to match his fellow castmates from The Boys in the Band. \u201cI dreamed of being at this event as a kid, and the fact that I get to come to this party every year is surreal,\u201d Rannells said. \u201cAll I ever wanted to do was to work on Broadway and be a part of this community.\u201d This same sense of excitement could be felt by all who celebrated the Tonys in true gala-at-the-Plaza fashion.\nSee All of the Celebrity Looks From the Tony Awards 2018 Red Carpet\nZoey Deutch in Brock Collection and Jennifer Meyer jewelryPhoto: Getty Images\nTony Awards 2018: The Latest Celebrity Arrivals, Breaking News, Full List of Winners, and More\nIn This Story:Tony Awards 2018",

        "title": "VP Legacies | How to Manage Sound on a Video Production Set",
        "raw_content": "So you want to make a video. You\u2019ve done all the prep work, and now it\u2019s time to film. Not only do you have to consider the quality of your video production, you have to consider your audio production as well. You can\u2019t have high-quality video without high-quality sound to match. And in most cases, high-quality sound is more important than high-quality video. Treat your audio with just as much or more importance as your video and you\u2019ll be sure to have a video of the highest audio and visual quality. With just taking a few tricks, you can manage the sound to elevate the audio on your video.\nChoose the right mic for the job\nThough it may be tempting, you can\u2019t rely on just one type of microphone for everyone of your filming jobs. Different types of microphones have different strengths when it comes to capturing audio in a given situation. The shape and size of a microphone can have a tremendous impact on the quality of your audio. Not to mention other factors such as portability and the ability to adapt in louder environments.\nA few common types of microphones are:\nShotgun. A shotgun microphone is a highly directional microphone that must be pointed directly at its target sound source for proper recording. It is used for talks or speeches in meetings, conferences, and lectures.\nHandheld. A handheld microphone is any microphone held in the hand and used to pick up human speech. They are used in a variety of settings, from musical performances to television interviews.\nWireless. A wireless microphone is a microphone without a physical cable connecting it directly to the sound recording or amplifying equipment with which it is associated. They are mainly used to allow public speakers, interviewers, performers, and entertainers to move about freely.\nBoundary/PZM. A boundary/PZM microphone is a type of condenser microphone that eliminates the interference of reflected sound waves. It is mostly used in conference situations.\nStereo. A stereo microphone is two regular studio microphones in a single unit. It can be used to create a sense of width in recording.\nWired Lavalier. A wired lavalier is a small microphone used for television, theatre, and public speaking to allow for hands-free operation. They are most commonly provided with small clips for attaching to collars, ties, or other clothing.\nOnce you find a the microphone that best fits your filming needs, you want to make sure you place your microphone in the right spot to pick up your audio. Managing sound through the right placement can make all the difference in the quality of your audio. You want to make sure to place your microphone within proper distance of your subject. Too far and it will pick up echo, but too close, and you might end up with a grainy sound.\nPick shooting locations carefully to avoid problematic audio environments\nIf possible, manage your sound quality by scoping out shooting locations prior to filming. Bring your camera, microphone, and a good pair of headphones, preferable around the ear, to identify problem noise sources. Oftentimes, what you hear through headphones is very different than the naked ear. Even something like an air conditioner can sound drastically different through a microphone than just on its own. You want to choose a location that has as little background noise as possible so it doesn\u2019t detract from what you\u2019re filming. Conversely, you don\u2019t want to pick a location that has too much echo, as it will skew your audio. The key is to pick a filming location that has enough sound balance to where you can edit it out or tone it down in the editing process.\nWind and weather protect your microphone\nSometimes you can\u2019t control the weather, especially on a shooting day. While you run the risk of ruining your equipment because of the elements, you also run the risk of ruining your audio. On days you shoot out in the weather, make sure to invest in some heavy wind and rain protection for you audio equipment. Don\u2019t skimp on the quality of your weather protection equipment. If the mic picks up even the slightest of breezes or sprinkling of rain, it can make your work unsuitable to use in the final product. Take preventative measures ahead of time to ensure that you still are able to produce high-quality sound \u2014 even in the most inclement of conditions.\nCapture audio using a separate recorder\nWhen dealing with recording audio on a video camera, you run the risk of the audio not being of the same quality as the video. Some cameras maintain the recording levels at a particular level so you don\u2019t always have control over the sound, especially in the editing process. Unless you are making a silent film, you should place just as much emphasis on your audio as you do on your video, making sure you achieve the highest quality possible. By using a separate audio recorder, you can better manage your sound to achieve superior audio results. It may be a hassle when it comes to filming, but you will thank yourself when it comes time to edit the project and your audio is exactly how you want it to be.\nIt\u2019s easier than you think to match up audio recorded separately from the camera. If you are using editing software such as Adobe Premiere, you will be able to access a function that matched waveforms. If you want to go more old school, during the filming process, you can use a combination of a clapper and notetaking. This method will allow you to locate and matchup audio quickly in post-production.\nUse hardware compressors and limiters for indoor filming\nWhile filming inside limits the risk of exposure to outside noise, other factors can make it difficult to create a quiet environment. Particularly in the case of doing voice overs, you may want to consider investing in hardware compressors and limiters, which smooth out the sound and allow you to get more level to your recorder. This will cut down any extra noise that you may have around you and make for high-quality audio. A tool like this is commonly used outside the studio to limit the noise in an outdoor filming location, but don\u2019t be afraid to try it inside to experience the wonders of what it can do for your sound.\nSound triumphs at Sundance\n\u201cTangerine,\u201d a breakout hit from the Sundance Film Festival in 2015 was shot completely using on an iPhone 5S. Because of budgetary constraints, director Sean Baker turned to an iPhone as his recording device of choice. The filmmakers like the portability and flexibility of the device to get the shots they desired for the film. Though it was using a device most of us already own, the filmmakers and directors still needed to know principles of cinematography, including sound.\nWhen filming \u201cTangerine,\u201d they used additional tools and apps to alter the visual quality of the film, but didn\u2019t need to do anything to alter the sound that was captured on the iPhone. As a result, they were able to make a hit on a shoestring budget while still producing a film with high-quality audio and video.\nSound might be one of the hardest aspects of filming to get right. It takes a lot of trial and error, and perseverance to find the right equipment and environment that work for you and your project. By mastering a few of these tricks, you will achieve high-quality sound every time.\nSound engineer cover photo by Adi Goldstein",

        "raw_content": "Nancy Reagan\u2019s toughest battle: The \u2018long, long goodbye\u2019 to the man she loved\nIn this June 2004 photo, Nancy Reagan kisses her husband\u2019s casket in the rotunda of the Capitol in Washington. (Elise Amendola/AP file)\nBy the time Nancy Reagan sat down with Mike Wallace of \u201c60 Minutes\u201d in 2002, her eyes had lost their familiar gleam.\nMore than a decade out of the world spotlight, hers was now a life consumed by a torturous, private struggle. Her husband\u2019s generous spirit \u2014 once among the most commanding on Earth \u2014 had been reduced by Alzheimer\u2019s to a passing flicker of semi-cognizance.\nIn the White House, she\u2019d developed a reputation as a fierce protector of the president, even while surrounded by allies. Now the former first lady, who had decades earlier said that her life didn\u2019t begin until she met Ronald Reagan, was still protecting the love of her life.\nNancy Reagan died Sunday, March 6 in Los Angeles. She was 94. (Monica Akhtar/The Washington Post)\nThis time, however, she was doing it on her own.\n[Nancy Reagan \u2018was quiet and mild, but you could tell that she had steel on the inside\u2019]\n\u201cIt really is the long, long goodbye,\u201d she told Wallace of caring for someone with Alzheimer\u2019s disease.\n\u201cWhen you come right down to it, you\u2019re in it alone, and there\u2019s nothing that anybody can do for you,\u201d she added, her stoic eyes turning watery. \u201cSo it\u2019s lonely.\u201d\nOnly months before the interview, Wallace noted, the Reagans had marked their 50th wedding anniversary.\nWhat should have been a day of celebration, Reagan told Wallace, was far more complicated for her. The hardest part, she said, was not being able to share decades of memories together.\nThe unusual story of how communist paranoia led to the Reagans\u2019 first date\nTheir lifetime of devotion started with an incident amid the fever of communism paranoia in the \u201940s and \u201950s.\nEven before she stepped into the White House, Nancy Reagan\u2019s devotion to Ronald Reagan was legendary. She was widely known for \u201cthe gaze,\u201d the adoring way that she looked at him. Here\u2019s a look at how their story began. MIKE SARGENT/AFP/Getty Images\n\u201cHow I\u2019d love to be able to talk to him about it,\u201d she said. \u201cThere were times when I had to catch myself, because I\u2019d reach out and start to say, \u2018Honey, remember when \u2026'\u201d\n\u201cDo you think he knows you still?\u201d Wallace asked.\n\u201cI don\u2019t know,\u201d Reagan responded.\nAs her husband slowly slipped away, Reagan\u2019s daughter, Patti Davis, reconnected with her mother, Wallace reported. As her parents\u2019 struggle deepened, Davis wrote poignantly about the effect the disease was having on each of them in their own way.\nShe measured the depth of that struggle, Wallace noted, by looking into her parents\u2019 eyes.\n\u201cIn the early stages of Alzheimer\u2019s, the eyes have a weariness, a veil of fear,\u201d Davis wrote, according to CBS News. \u201cI used to see my father\u2019s eyes simultaneously plead and hold firm. Slowly, sometimes over months, sometimes over years, the eyes stop pleading. \u2026 A resignation, an acceptance of distance, strangeness, a life far from home. You know the look when you see it. And the only mercy is that the fear seems to have subsided.\u201d\nWallace read the passage to Nancy Reagan out loud.\n\u201cIt\u2019s true, it\u2019s true,\u201d she said. \u201cA whole different look in eyes. Whole different look.\u201d\nWallace noted that Davis had some somber observations about her mother\u2019s eyes as well. The long goodbye, she\u2019d noticed, was taking a toll.\n\u201cMy mother\u2019s eyes are frequently such deep wells that I have to look away,\u201d Wallace quoted Davis as writing.\n\u201cI think she means that when she looks at me, she sees a deep sadness,\u201d Nancy Reagan replied.\nReagan told Wallace that she wasn\u2019t sure whether her husband still knew who she was. She found comfort in remembering their past and by reading letters she\u2019d saved from their time together, letters that captured the intensity of their bond.\nOne missive \u2014 written by President Reagan aboard Air Force One and cited by Wallace \u2014 laid bare the president\u2019s attachment to his wife: \u201cWhen you aren\u2019t there I\u2019m no place, just lost in time and space. I more than love you, I\u2019m not whole without you.\u201d\nWallace asked whether, given her husband\u2019s poor condition, she was ready to say goodbye.\n\u201cNo,\u201d Reagan said firmly. \u201cNot really. He\u2019s there. He\u2019s there.\u201d\nThat same year, she published \u201cI Love You, Ronnie,\u201d a poignant collection of the couple\u2019s love letters. In the book, she wrote even more about coping with her husband\u2019s illness. Ronald Reagan died two years later, in 2004.\n\u201cWe\u2019ve had an extraordinary life \u2026 but the other side of the coin is that it makes it harder,\u201d she wrote.\n\u201cThere are so many memories that I can no longer share, which makes it very difficult. When it comes right down to it, you\u2019re in it alone. Each day is different, and you get up, put one foot in front of the other, and go \u2014 and love, just love.\u201d\nNancy Reagan dies at 94; first lady was a defining figure of the 1980s\nFrom 2004: Ronald Reagan, president who reshaped American politics, dies at 93",

        "title": "Rep. Stark: I'll sell ladders to illegals at border wall - Washington Times",
        "raw_content": "Rep. Stark: I'll sell ladders to illegals at border wall\nRep. Pete Stark, California Democrat, appears to think security on our borders is not an important issue. The Golden Gate Minutemen posted video of an exchange during a recent town hall meeting on June 26 in Fremont, where the congressman asked a border security advocate in attendance, \u201cWho are you going to kill today?\u201d Mr. Stark continued to heckle and mock the town hall attendees who reacted in disbelief as the congressman disrespected his own constituents. (all emphasis is mine)\nMr. Stark made such outrageous statements like:\n\u201cIf you knew anything about our border, you would know that\u2019s not the case. Our borders are quite secure, thank you.\u201d\nWhat a ridiculous remark. The Federation for American Immigration and Reform cites Department of Homeland Security and Immigration and Naturalization Services estimates on this issue:\nINS/DHS Estimate The Dept. of Homeland Security (DHS) estimated that the illegal alien population in 2007 was 11.78 million persons. This was an increase of 39.2 percent from an estimated resident illegal population in 2000 of 8.46 million persons. This indicates that the estimated illegal alien population rose by an annual average of 475,000 per year over this period.\nThe Census Bureau issued an estimate in January 2002 that the illegal alien population in 2000 was 8,705,421. That estimate was based on the discrepancy between the number of foreign-born residents and the number of legally admitted immigrants. Included in that number may be aliens residing in the United States under provisions that preclude their deportation, but who are not legal permanent residents, such as beneficiaries of Section 245(i) petitions, or asylees who have not been in the country long enough for adjustment of status, or Central American beneficiaries of the NACARA legislation.\n\u201cTell me how to secure it [the border]. I\u2019m not the government.\u201d\nUnfortunately, it appears Mr. Stark believes he is now both entitled to his position and does not need to be bothered with the tasks involved with his job, because his district has been putting him in office since 1972. Not only does he lack competence to do his job properly, but he willfully denies his role for his constituents as a representative in the federal government.\n\u201cI\u2019ll tell you what, we\u2019ll go down there, and you design the wall and as soon as we know that you won\u2019t shoot the people coming over, then I\u2019ll go down and start a ladder company, but I don\u2019t know how high that wall is, and I\u2019ll sell a whole lot of ladders for people who want to come.\u201d\nMr. Stark just advocated for aiding and abetting breaking federal law and to add insult to insult\u2026(profiting from it).\n\u201cI don\u2019t have to make fun of you sir, you do a fine job all by yourself.\u201d\nMr. Stark\u2019s condescending statements like this one above was not only meant to demean but also likely meant as a failed attempt to gin up the crowd and show how angry and irrational they were, but in the end, it was Mr. Stark who ended up looking rotten. It is remarkable how his constituents showed unbelievable restraint in the midst of being insulted by the individual elected to represent them.\n\u201cWe still have for agriculture the Bracero program, which is legal.\u201d\nWrong. The Congressman should no better than to say this. The Bracero program ended in 1964: (H/T HNN)\nAs the U.S. Department of Labor relaxed regulations on Bracero housing, wages, and food charges in the mid-1950s, more farmers hired legal Braceros; admissions peaked at 445,200 in 1956. However, Braceros admissions began to fall in the early 1960s, when President Kennedy ordered the Department of Labor to enforce Bracero regulations. The November 1960 CBS documentary \u201cHarvest of Shame\u201d convinced Kennedy that Braceros were \u201cadversely affecting the wages, working conditions, and employment opportunities of our own agricultural workers.\u201d Farmers fought to preserve the program in Congress, but lost, and the Bracero program ended December 31, 1964.\n\u201cThere is no question that if they [illegal immigrants] are apprehended under any circumstance they are deported (San Francisco, Oakland and most Bay Area cities do not deport illegals) The question is, if the Minutemen don\u2019t shoot\u2019em, the question is finding them. One of the reasons you have such a low incidence of crime, I think, is they\u2019re scared. They know that if they are arrested for a crime, they will be turned over to the immigration authorities, which they try to avoid.\u201d\nThat\u2019s a funny thing to say, especially since Mr. Stark\u2019s own district has what are considered to be \u201csanctuary cities.\u201d Furthermore, according to City Journal\u2019s Heather Macdonald, sanctuary city policies restrict authorities from doing their jobs and preventing some of the most violent crimes:\nSome of the most violent criminals at large today are illegal aliens. Yet in cities where the crime these aliens commit is highest, the police cannot use the most obvious tool to apprehend them: their immigration status. In Los Angeles, for example, dozens of members of a ruthless Salvadoran prison gang have sneaked back into town after having been deported for such crimes as murder, assault with a deadly weapon, and drug trafficking. Police officers know who they are and know that their mere presence in the country is a felony. Yet should a cop arrest an illegal gangbanger for felonious reentry, it is he who will be treated as a criminal, for violating the LAPD\u2019s rule against enforcing immigration law.\nThe LAPD\u2019s ban on immigration enforcement mirrors bans in immigrant-saturated cities around the country, from New York and Chicago to San Diego, Austin, and Houston. These \u201csanctuary policies\u201d generally prohibit city employees, including the cops, from reporting immigration violations to federal authorities.\nSuch laws testify to the sheer political power of immigrant lobbies, a power so irresistible that police officials shrink from even mentioning the illegal-alien crime wave. \u201cWe can\u2019t even talk about it,\u201d says a frustrated LAPD captain. \u201cPeople are afraid of a backlash from Hispanics.\u201d Another LAPD commander in a predominantly Hispanic, gang-infested district sighs: \u201cI would get a firestorm of criticism if I talked about [enforcing the immigration law against illegals].\u201d Neither captain would speak for attribution.\nFinally, here is an interesting exchange between a candidate for Congressman Stark\u2019s seat and Rep. Stark. It highlights the ultimate hypocrisy of Mr. Stark and his career politician life of 38 years:\nChris Pareja: My understanding is that when you first ran against George Miller in 1972, part of your platform was that he\u2019d been in office for 28 years which was too long. You\u2019ve now been in office for 38 years, all 38 that I\u2019ve been on the planet and according to another article I read, you had, as of January, the fifth worst voting attendance record in Congress. My question for you is, do you have any plans for retirement?\nRep. Stark: I have no plans for retirement.\nConsidering the minimal amount of work Rep. Stark is doing for California with all those missed votes, what exactly does retirement mean to him anyway?",

        "raw_content": "Police to question Abramoff\nMIAMI (AP) \u2014 Washington lobbyist Jack Abramoff, accused of federal fraud charges in a casino deal, is willing to be interviewed by police trying to solve the gangland-style killing of the businessman who sold the floating casinos, his lawyer said yesterday.\nMr. Abramoff, whose lobbying activities are under investigation in Washington, had expected to meet with Fort Lauderdale, Fla., homicide detectives shortly after the February 2001 slaying of Konstantinos \u201cGus\u201d Boulis, but the interview never took place, attorney Neal Sonnett said.\nNow the detectives are expressing new interest in talking with Mr. Abramoff, which Mr. Sonnett said he would arrange.\n\u201cHe\u2019s always been willing to cooperate,\u201d the lawyer said.\nMr. Sonnett said he was unaware of any information that Mr. Abramoff might have about the killing. Fort Lauderdale police did not return a call seeking comment yesterday.\nMr. Abramoff, 46, and Adam Kidan, 41, are charged with conspiracy and wire fraud in the September 2000 purchase of SunCruz Casinos from Mr. Boulis. Prosecutors say the pair concocted a fake $23 million wire transfer to make it appear to lenders as if they were putting a sizable stake of their own money into the deal.\nBoth have denied wrongdoing. Mr. Kidan pleaded not guilty last week. Mr. Abramoff is due in court Aug. 29 to enter his plea. Both are free on bail.\nPolice interviewed Mr. Kidan about the Boulis killing in 2001, said his attorney, Martin Jaffe. Mr. Jaffe would not comment on the specifics of the interview.\nThe SunCruz fleet of 11 ships, equipped with slot machines and gaming tables, sails to international water from ports in Florida and South Carolina.\nA few months after the $147.5 million sale of SunCruz, Mr. Boulis was fatally shot after his car was blocked by other vehicles and an assailant pulled up alongside.\nThe killing happened after weeks of acrimony stemming from the sale, including a physical altercation between Mr. Kidan and Mr. Boulis, who also founded the Miami Subs fast-food chain.\nIn Washington, Mr. Abramoff is under investigation by a federal grand jury and by the U.S. Senate Indian Affairs Committee for deals in which he and an associate received at least $66 million from six Indian tribes to lobby for their casinos and other interests.\nThe tribes question whether the charges were excessive.\nCongressional Democrats have raised questions about Mr. Abramoff\u2019s ties to House Majority Leader Tom DeLay, Texas Republican.\nThe congressman has asked the House ethics committee to review accusations that Mr. Abramoff or his clients paid some of Mr. DeLay\u2019s overseas travel expenses. The majority leader has denied knowing that the expenses were paid by Mr. Abramoff.",

        "raw_content": "Kaiser donation helps keep D.C. pools free\nThe District is hoping to cannonball its way toward better health.\nD.C. swimming pools will be free to all city residents until at least Sept. 30, 2006, thanks to a $200,000 donation from Kaiser Permanente.\nOfficials expect hundreds more children and seniors will dive into the water, but the bigger story may be the partnership starting between the insurance company and a city with significant health problems.\n\u201cWe wanted to find an area that needed help,\u201d said Dr. Philip Carney, president of Kaiser Permanente\u2019s Mid-Atlantic region.\nHe said the insurance giant hopes for a seven- to 10-year partnership with the District.\nSurrounded by beaming, pint-sized swimmers, Dr. Carney and other Kaiser officials presented a check to Mayor Anthony A. Williams yesterday at the Francis Swimming Pool in Northwest.\nIt is one of 26 outdoor and six indoor pools the city runs.\nThe children giggled as Mr. Williams, in long-sleeve shirt and bow tie, joked that he was not going to perform his trademark cannonball jump into the pool, which he does at the start of the summer. Minutes later, things got more serious. Dr. Carney said the District has the seventh highest rate of overweight high school students.\nNearby, swim coach Rodger McCoy watched closely.\n\u201cSwimming is good for seniors \u2026 it\u2019s good for kids, it\u2019s good for everyone,\u201d he said.\nMr. McCoy, 30, estimates half of the children on the city\u2019s youth swim team are asthmatic, and he thinks swimming has nearly erased their asthma attacks.\nWhile it may help make District residents more active, the news of free pool admission could be as much public relations as it is policy change.\nKaiser officials said the majority of their donation will go to fix a broken filtration system at Banneker Pool near Howard University, a repair costing about $155,000.\nIn addition, the District already offers free admission to all but seven pools. Officials estimate half of the pools are in low-income areas. Those are precisely the areas where the city and Kaiser hope to change both habits and health.\n\u201cWe\u2019re making headway,\u201d Mr. Williams said, \u201cit\u2019s all of us working together to make headway.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Amazon HQ2 Jobs Are \u2018Mission Critical\u2019, Says New York City Mayor\nDefending the incentive package to attract Amazon.com\u2019s HQ2 to New York City, Mayor Bill de Blasio said the prospect of the tech giant bringing tens of thousands of jobs to the area was \u201cmission critical.\u201d\n\u201cWe had a real live choice to make \u2013 25,000 to 40,000 jobs, many of them good paying, that New Yorkers really want and that would be available to a wide range of New Yorkers,\u201d De Blasio said in testifying to the New York State Legislature\u2019s Joint Fiscal Committees. \u201cWe want to build up our tech community, so to me it was mission critical that this city get those jobs rather than other cities.\u201d\nAfter lobbying hard to win the deal, De Blasio and New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo have faced a backlash from local politicians and community organizers who object to their lack of involvement in the process and $3 billion (roughly Rs. 21,000 crores) in government incentives for a company valued at close to $1 trillion (roughly Rs. 71,00,000 crores) while the city is facing budget cuts.\nSeattle-based Amazon launched a nationwide search in 2017 for a site to build a second-headquarters that would eventually employ as many as 50,000 workers. The process pitted New York against cities across the country \u2013 a format that wasn\u2019t ideal, de Blasio noted. Amazon is planning a similar site in Arlington, Virginia.\n\u201cWe believed that, through careful tracking of the competition, there were several other cities poised to win,\u201d he said. \u201cAnd we had to strike the right balance.\u201d\nAmazon received incentives from existing state programs that were available to any company, de Blasio said. The city didn\u2019t offer additional incentives.\nThe jobs Amazon is expected to create in Long Island City will have a \u201cseismic impact\u201d and yield $27.5 billion in state and city revenue over 25 years, a 9-to-1 ratio of revenue to subsidies, de Blasio said.\n\u201cWe never had a single agreement that brought us that many jobs,\u201d he said. At the same time, the mayor acknowledged that the city has \u201cmore work\u201d to do to make sure Amazon lives up to its commitments.\nAddressing a frequent concern of opponents \u2013 Amazon\u2019s anti-union stance \u2013 De Blasio said construction of the headquarters will be done by union workers. Building-services jobs, like janitors, will also be filled by union members.\nDe Blasio said the city had considered other sites before ultimately selecting Long Island City as a potential future location of Amazon\u2019s 4 million-square-foot new corporate campus. It became clear during the process, however, that Amazon preferred the Queens site, on the shores of the East River across from Manhattan. The neighbourhood is one that has been developing, and Amazon presented an opportunity to generate \u201cmore things we care about: jobs, affordable housing, fixing our infrastructure,\u201d he said.\nPrevious Article US Warns Hungary, Other Allies to Shun Business With Huawei\nNext Article Walmart, Google-backed Deliv end online grocery partnership",

They tend to be good people who like to live a quiet and peaceful life.\nCharacteristics of the Pig\nLust for life: it is the sign of the Chinese Horoscope that most enjoys the small pleasures of life.\nSelfish: in general, the Pig is quite obsessed with himself and easily forgets the needs of others.\nSomewhat insecure: they are excellent workers but, sometimes, they do not believe in their own abilities; with the right leader they can develop all their talent but first they need a good dose of self-confidence.\nGood advisers: Pigs have common sense and the rest of the people seek their advice, which is generally good.\nThe five types of Pig\nWhen those born under this sign of the Chinese Horoscope have the water element, they are self-indulgent people who need an extra stimulus to overcome laziness. They are naturally charming.\nWooden Pig\nUnder the influence of the element wood, Pigs tend to develop their wisdom and ambition.\nFire Pig\nUnder the fire element, this sign of the Chinese Horoscope is brave and adventurous. Friend of the risks and challenges.\nUnder the influence of the element earth, Pigs are more insecure and prudent.\nThey are very fun and sociable.

Any entity in which one or more SDNs directly or indirectly holds a 50% or greater ownership interest in the aggregate is itself deemed blocked by operation of law. US persons\u2014including foreign branches of US companies\u2014may not engage in any dealings, directly or indirectly, with blocked persons. Provision of goods, services, or support to blocked parties may be grounds for potential future designation.\nOFAC has issued nine general licenses to mitigate the effects of the designation in specific circumstances set forth in each General License, two of which have been replaced and superseded by new licenses. These General Licenses also generally establish that transactions and activity otherwise prohibited by previous Venezuela-related Executive Orders continue to be prohibited. It is important, therefore, for companies to make sure they still consider the prior Executive Orders and OFAC guidance regarding Venezuela when they analyze the General Licenses to determine whether certain activity is permitted or prohibited.\nAdditionally, on January 25, 2019, President Trump signed E.O. 13857 entitled \u201cTaking Additional Steps to Address the National Emergency with Respect to Venezuela\u201d to expand the definition of the term \u201cGovernment of Venezuela\u201d to include persons that have acted, or have purported to act, on behalf of the Government of Venezuela, including members of the Maduro regime.3\nThe designation of PdVSA follows a determination by US Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin that persons operating in the oil sector of the Venezuelan economy may be subject to sanctions under E.O. 13850.4 OFAC issued guidance stating that PdVSA may be delisted through \u201cexpeditious transfer of control to [US- recognized Interim President Juan Guaid\u00f3] or a subsequent, democratically elected government.\u201d5 OFAC has issued 13 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) and amended five of those FAQs in two stages in connection with the PdVSA designation and related general licenses.6\nOn January 29, 2019, the Department of State also announced that it certified the authority of Mr. Guaid\u00f3 to receive and control certain property in accounts of the Government of Venezuela or the Central Bank of Venezuela held by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York or any other US-insured bank.7\nOFAC has issued nine General Licenses providing temporary relief from the new sanctions. Two of the General Licenses have been replaced and superseded by new General Licenses (GLs 3C and 9B), and OFAC has issued FAQs describing the scope of these amendments that modify the conditions under which certain transactions are authorized. The authorizations, as amended, are described in the chart below.\nGL 3C:\nAuthorizing Transactions Related to, Provision of Financing for, and Other Dealings in Certain Bonds8\nTransactions related to, the provision of financing for, and other dealings in bonds (enumerated in an annex, the \u201cGL 3C Bonds\u201d) that would otherwise be prohibited, provided any divestment or transfer of, or facilitation of divestment or transfer of holdings in such bonds is to a non-US person.9 (absent authorization from OFAC).10\nTransactions and activities ordinarily incident and necessary to the wind down of financial contracts or other agreements entered into prior to 4:00 p.m. eastern standard time on February 1, 2019, involving or linked to the GL 3C Bonds.11\nTransactions related to, the provision of financing for, and other dealings in bonds issued both (i) prior to August 25, 2017 and (ii) by US person entities owned or controlled, directly or indirectly by the Government of Venezuela, other than Nynas AB, PDV Holding, Inc.

dispute in the WTO against the United States regarding US sanctions measures targeting Venezuela by requesting dispute consultations on December 28, 2018.29 The parties have 60 days from the date of the request to attempt to resolve the dispute before it will proceed to adjudication. In its request for consultations, Venezuela claims that measures imposed under certain US sanctions-related statutes, regulations, and Executive Orders relating to goods of Venezuelan origin, imports of gold from Venezuela, the liquidity of Venezuela\u2019s public debt, transactions in government-backed cryptocurrency, and the supply and consumption of services by certain Venezuelan nationals placed on the SDN List are coercive trade-restrictive measures in violation of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade 1994 (GATT) and the General Agreement on Trade in Services (GATS).30 The dispute is currently in the consultation phase.31\nParties that conduct business with Venezuela should be aware of the US sanctions currently in place against Venezuela. Non-compliance could result in severe penalties for sanctions violations.\nClick here to donwload PDF.\n1 - The OFAC designation announcement is available here; E.O. 13850 was signed by President Trump on November 1, 2018, and is available here.\n2 - US person is defined to include US citizens and permanent resident aliens, wherever located, entities organized under US law (including foreign branches), and individuals and entities located in the United States.\n3 - The Executive Order is available here; OFAC published a new FAQ on this E.O., available here.\n4 - See OFAC press release, available here.\n5 - The press statement recognizing Juan Guaid\u00f3 as interim President of Venezuela is available here; FAQ 660 is available here.\n6 - The OFAC recent actions notices for these FAQs, issued January 31, February 1, and February 11 are available here, here and here.

        "raw_content": "Peter Phillips: Pop, Pin-Ups & Mosaics\nAged only 18 when he entered the postgraduate painting course at the Royal College of Art in 1959, Peter Phillips was not only the youngest but one of the most technically gifted of that remarkable class, which included in its number David Hockney, Allen Jones, R. B. Kitaj and Derek Boshier. His Pop paintings of 1961, among the earliest and most ambitious by any British artist, arose naturally from his passions as a teenager and from his intense response to the surface sheen of modern life as experienced through photography, cinema, illustration, graphic design, games and all the desirable products devised by industry and made yet more glamorous through advertising.\nBy the end of the decade, Phillips was to produce paintings on a billboard scale, deftly manipulating his borrowed imagery with the aid of a tool employed by advertisers and photographic retouchers, the airbrush. The effect of his hands-off surfaces was simultaneously to claim responsibility for his selection of forms and images and to distance himself from the elements he juggled, as if they had floated unbidden into the space of his pictures. Through the many changes in his procedures and favoured formats, this trancelike atmosphere remains in force, endowing his art with a mystery and allure a long way from the prosaic and banal sources from which he begins. The rigorous geometry of his pictures and the apparent objectivity and detachment with which he deploys both his processes and the component parts serve as a highly effective means of disguising the ultimately intuitive, subjective, poetic and even romantic nature of his art. The longer one looks at a Phillips, the more powerfully its strangeness takes its hold on the imagination.\nThe selection of works here persuasively demonstrates the endlessly vibrant nature of Phillips's work, based so firmly in the modern world (as mediated by found images) but also prone to constant flights of fantasy suggestive of dreamlike states. Declaring his freedom to dart in and out of abstraction and to consider every period of his work, every device and compositional strategy, as a legitimate starting point for new pictures, Phillips remains in his late sixties a star of the mythical Sixties, forever young.",

        "raw_content": "Primus (band)\nFor other uses, see Primus (disambiguation).\nLes Claypool, Larry LaLonde and Jay Lane performing as Primus, circa 2011.\nEl Sobrante, California, U.S.\nMapleMusic\nprimusville.com\nLarry \"Ler\" LaLonde\nVince \"Perm\" Parker\nTim \"Curveball\" Wright\nPrimus is an American rock band based in San Francisco, California, currently composed of bassist/vocalist Les Claypool, guitarist Larry \"Ler\" LaLonde and drummer Tim \"Herb\" Alexander. Primus originally formed in 1984 with Claypool and guitarist Todd Huth, later joined by drummer Jay Lane, though the latter two departed the band at the end of 1988. Featuring LaLonde and Alexander, Primus recorded their debut Suck on This in 1989, followed by four studio albums: Frizzle Fry, Sailing the Seas of Cheese, Pork Soda, and Tales from the Punchbowl. Alexander left the band in 1996, replaced by Bryan \"Brain\" Mantia, and Primus went on to record the original theme song for the TV show South Park and two more albums, Brown Album and Antipop, before declaring a hiatus in 2000.\nIn 2003, Claypool and LaLonde reunited with Alexander and released a DVD/EP, Animals Should Not Try to Act Like People, before touring sporadically through 2009. In 2010, Lane rejoined Primus, replacing Alexander, and the band released their seventh album, Green Naugahyde, in 2011. In 2013, Lane left the band to focus on other projects, and Tim Alexander rejoined once again. They have released some of their records on Claypool's own label Prawn Song Records.Primus is characterized by its irreverent, quirky approach to music. Robert Christgau once remarked: \"[Primus is] quite possibly the strangest top-10 band ever, and good for them.\"[1]\nmusical style, legacy and influences\nThe early years and Frizzle Fry (1984\u20131990)\nPrimus began as Primate in El Sobrante, California, in 1984 with singer and bassist Les Claypool, guitarist Todd Huth, and a LinnDrum drum machine. The duo initially had trouble finding a drummer, until Claypool's friend Vince \"Perm\" Parker returned home from a stint in the army, and together the three of them recorded their first demo, financed by Claypool selling his car.[2][3] Primate changed their name to Primus after \"about a month\" when they were approached by a group called the Primates threatening legal action over the similarity of their names.[3] Parker was soon replaced by the band's second drummer, Peter Libby, who was himself replaced by Robbie Bean, before the band eventually settled on Tim \"Curveball\" Wright in 1986.[4] After rising to fame in the local music scene with their brand of funk metal fusion, reaching the point where they were \"selling out Berkeley Square\", Wright left Primus in the summer of 1988 to be replaced by Jay Lane, drummer with the Freaky Executives, who were \"getting dicked around by their record company\", as Claypool later described it.[3]\nAfter recording another demo, titled Sausage, Lane left Primus at the end of 1988 when \"something good happened\" with the Freaky Executives' record deal.[3] Huth also left the band soon after, wishing to dedicate more time to his family.[3] In 1987, Primus was put on hold briefly and Claypool rejoined his former band, Blind Illusion, who at the time also featured one-time Joe Satriani student and ex-Possessed guitarist Larry \"Ler\" LaLonde.[5] Claypool recruited LaLonde to reform Primus together with Tim \"Herb\" Alexander, drummer with the Arizona-based group Major Lingo, and a month later,[3][6] the trio recorded their first album: Suck on This (1989), a live recording culled from two of their Berkeley concerts, funded by a loan from Claypool's father.[7] Bryan \"Brain\" Mantia (who later joined the band in 1996) was briefly a member of the band during this time period, before a broken foot forced him to leave the group.[8]\nIn 1990, the band released their first studio album, Frizzle Fry, and released singles for \"John the Fisherman\" and \"Too Many Puppies\". With a music video featuring Kirk Hammett, a studio album and a tour with Jane's Addiction, Primus' popularity grew to the point where they attracted attention from Interscope Records, who signed them in 1990.\nSeas of Cheese, Pork Soda and Tales from the Punchbowl (1991\u20131996)\nPrimus's major label debut was the album Sailing the Seas of Cheese. The album was supported by the singles \"Jerry Was a Race Car Driver\" and \"Tommy the Cat\", both of which appeared on MTV. A third single, \"Those Damned Blue-Collar Tweekers\", was also released but did not feature a video. The band appeared as contestants for the Battle of the Bands in Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey and made music for a Beavis and Butt-Head tribute album with a song entitled \"Poetry and Prose\". With a major label behind them, Sailing the Seas of Cheese went gold. The band then toured in support of Rush, U2, Anthrax, Public Enemy, and Fishbone.\nAfter the release of Sailing the Seas of Cheese, in 1992 Primus released a cover song EP Miscellaneous Debris, with their version of XTC's \"Making Plans for Nigel\" receiving enough airplay to reach No. 30 on Billboard's Modern Rock Tracks chart.[9]\nIn 1993, Primus released Pork Soda, which managed to debut at No. 7 on the Billboard Top 10. The album was darker than previous Primus efforts, dealing with murder, suicide, and alienation. The band has commented that prior to recording, they had been touring for nearly two solid years and were thus in a sombre mood. \"My Name Is Mud\" was the first single, the band's only entry in the U.S. Alternative Songs Top 10. \"DMV\" and \"Mr. Krinkle\" followed, the latter made into a video featuring Claypool in a pig suit and tuxedo playing upright bass in an abandoned warehouse as a carnival of oddities parades behind him, including Claypool's wife and her twin sister. Claypool said he put his \"heart and soul\" into the video, but it received next to no airtime on MTV. In an interview with Guitar World magazine, Claypool disparaged the channel's unwillingness to air the video, saying \"it got played like six times.\"\nPork Soda was recorded at the band's rehearsal space in San Rafael. The band would subsequently record all of their albums at Les Claypool's home studio called Rancho Relaxo.\nIn 1993 Primus headlined the alternative rock festival Lollapalooza. They also made an appearance at the Woodstock '94 Music Festival. They were pelted with mud while they performed \"My Name Is Mud\".[10] About a minute into the song the band stopped playing, and Claypool said, \"Well I opened a big-ass can of worms with that one, didn't I? The song is called 'My Name Is Mud', but keep the mud to yourselves you son-of-a-bitch.\"[citation needed]\nDuring a lull in 1994, the early Primus lineup consisting of Claypool, Huth, and Lane reunited to record Riddles Are Abound Tonight under the band name Sausage, named after the demo they had recorded together in 1988. Among the songs they recorded is an early version of \"The Toys Go Winding Down\", retitled \"Toyz 1988\". The video for the title track \"Riddles Are Abound Tonight\" featured the band in blue leotards performing on stationary bicycles.\nIn 1995 Primus released their fourth album, Tales from the Punchbowl. It contained Primus's most successful single to date, which is the Grammy-nominated \"Wynona's Big Brown Beaver\". The song was accompanied by a video with the band members dressed up in cartoonish plastic cowboy costumes (similar to the suits worn in the then current Duracell battery commercials). The band was invited to perform on the Late Show with David Letterman and Late Night with Conan O'Brien. On the David Letterman show Primus appeared dressed in penguin tuxedos. Two other less successful singles, \"Mrs. Blaileen\" and \"Southbound Pachyderm\" (the latter of which featured a claymation video that received only minimal airplay on MTV) were also released.\nIn 1996 Claypool self-produced his first solo album entitled Les Claypool and the Holy Mackerel Presents Highball with the Devil. On this album many of the songs are done solely by Claypool himself. Claypool also employs the help of a number of other musicians. Experimental Bay Area guitarist M.I.R.V. joined Claypool and others. Performances include a spoken word piece from Henry Rollins on the song \"Delicate Tendrils\". This album was recorded at Rancho Relaxo.\nBrown Album, Antipop and hiatus (1997\u20132002)\nClaypool, Mantia and LaLonde in Copenhagen, Denmark in the summer of 1998.\nAlexander left the band and was replaced by Bryan \"Brain\" Mantia of Limbomaniacs and Praxis. Claypool stated \"Herb's departure was like a marriage that just slowly decayed to an end.\"[11] With Mantia aboard, Primus were asked in 1996 to compose the theme song to South Park. Primus also later contributed to the Chef Aid album with the song \"Mephisto and Kevin\".\nBrown Album was released in 1997 and supported by the singles \"Shake Hands with Beef\" and \"Over the Falls\". In 1998, the band headlined the inaugural Sno-Core tour with the Aquabats, Long Beach Dub Allstars and Blink 182.\nIn late 1998, Primus released the Rhinoplasty EP, which features covers of acts like XTC, the Police and Peter Gabriel. The EP also includes two live recordings of Primus, as well as bonus content accessed through a CD-ROM portion of the CD. It was shortly followed by the video release Videoplasty.\nAntipop was released in 1999, and featured production and guest appearances from James Hetfield from Metallica, Tom Morello from Rage Against the Machine, Matt Stone from South Park, Stewart Copeland from the Police, Jim Martin from Faith No More and Fred Durst from Limp Bizkit. While producing the song \"Lacquer Head\", Durst encouraged Primus to return to the more aggressive sound of their earlier albums for Antipop.[12] Some critics compared the album's murky downtuned guitars to nu metal, which was popular during the time.[13][14] The band toured in support of Antipop with Ozzfest and Family Values Tour. The band released a music video for the album's only single, \"Lacquer Head\", which was banned from MTV because of references to and depictions of drug use, despite the song's anti-drug message. Tensions among the band rose considerably during this period, Claypool stated \"there was some doubt at the label as to whether we knew what the hell we were doing anymore.\"[15]\nIn 2000 Primus performed a cover of Black Sabbath's song \"N.I.B.\" featuring vocals by Ozzy Osbourne. The track originally appeared on the album Nativity in Black II: A Tribute to Black Sabbath. The track was also released as part of Ozzy's 2005 Prince of Darkness box set.\nThe band went on hiatus from 2000 to 2003, with Claypool later stating:\n\"The end of the Nineties was an unhappy Primus camp. I hit a creative stagnation that wasn't helping us forward, and the personal elements, it just was time to stop. And I had been asked for many years, \"How long can Primus go on?\" And I always said, \"I'll do it until it's not fun anymore.\" And it just wasn't fun anymore on many different levels.\"[6]\nDuring this hiatus, Alexander released two albums with the band Laundry and performed with Blue Man Group, A Perfect Circle, and Born Naked, among others. Claypool explored the jam band scene with Oysterhead (featuring friend Trey Anastasio of Phish and Stewart Copeland of the Police) and his own Colonel Les Claypool's Fearless Flying Frog Brigade (featuring both Huth and Lane). He also collaborated with Brain, Buckethead and Bernie Worrell in the group Colonel Claypool's Bucket of Bernie Brains.\nAlexander, Claypool and LaLonde at the 2008 Ottawa Bluesfest in Ontario, Canada.\nIn late 2003, Primus reunited with Tim Alexander on drums to record a five track EP. Released alongside a DVD containing the band's music videos and clips from live performances, the resulting package was titled Animals Should Not Try to Act Like People. The band staged a two-month tour performing two sets per show, the second consisting of their 1991 release Sailing the Seas of Cheese in its entirety. 2004 saw them continue touring, this time performing their 1990 release Frizzle Fry in its entirety. For these two tours, the band sold recordings directly recorded from the sound-board online. The performance in Chicago was videotaped and released as a DVD titled Hallucino-Genetics: Live 2004. They also performed a set at Bonnarroo in 2004, a late night set featuring a cover of \"YYZ\" by Rush and a guest appearance by Adrian Belew on \"Thela Hun Ginjeet\" a King Crimson cover.\nIn 2005 the band performed at Lollapalooza and Vegoose. Between Primus shows, Claypool created a new solo project called Les Claypool's Fancy Band which, like other projects, occasionally used Primus songs.\nA May 10, 2006 article in IGN revealed that Primus had signed on with RedOctane to allow the master recording of John the Fisherman to be used in Guitar Hero 2, a game for the PlayStation 2 and Xbox 360.[16]\nPrimus performed on July 29, 2006, at the first annual Hedgpeth Festival in Twin Lakes, Wisconsin.\nOn October 17, 2006, Primus released both their first greatest hits CD They Can't All Be Zingers, as well as their third DVD Blame It on the Fish: an Abstract Look at the 2003 Primus Tour de Fromage. Containing live footage from the band's 2003 Tour de Fromage, interview segments and behind the scenes footage, the DVD includes a 70-minute feature film and 90 minutes of bonus material, including a 30-minute mockumentary about the band in the year 2065. Blame it on the Fish was directed by Matthew J. Powers. They Can't All Be Zingers: The Best of Primus includes 16 digitally remastered songs that span the band's career.\nIn November 2006, Primus commenced another tour which concluded the following month. They played at a few festivals in 2008, including the Rothbury Festival (in Michigan), the Ottawa Blues Fest, the Quebec City Summer Festival, and the Outside Lands Festival (in San Francisco), followed by their first annual Oddity Faire tour in March, 2009.[17] On November 24, 2009, Prawn Song re-released the band's first studio album, Frizzle Fry, on vinyl record, along with some of Claypool's solo albums.\nIt was revealed in 2011 that Alexander lacked interest in continuing Primus, despite enthusiasm from LaLonde and Claypool.[6] Claypool hinted that the band could have recorded with Alexander, but that \"when we did readdress Primus in '03 and '06, it was more of a nostalgic thing. It was great at the time, but it just didn't have that creative spark as far as moving forward\",[6] and thus the reformation instead focused on touring.\nGreen Naugahyde (2010\u20132013)\nOn March 18, 2010, it was announced by Phil Lesh on his official message board that former Primus drummer Jay Lane would be leaving his previous band Furthur to rejoin Primus.[18] On May 3, 2010, Primus announced a new tour with Gogol Bordello, Wolfmother, and the Dead Kenny G's.[19][20] The press release for the tour revealed that the band were looking to \"refine their chops before heading into the studio to record their first album of brand new music since 1999's Antipop.\"[21] Correlating with this announcement, the Primus website was updated with an animation of an elevator with its twelfth floor featuring a stylized question mark, and a sign reading \"Primus will be with you shortly\", alluding to future plans. In 2011, Claypool elaborated on the band's decision to record an album, stating that \"(Lane) coming back has just breathed life back into the project. We did some touring, and we decided, \"Let's go make a record,\" because we were creating things on the road.\"[6]\nJay Lane performing at the 2011 Soundwave festival in Brisbane, Australia.\nOn August 5, 2010, Primus released June 2010 Rehearsal, a free four-track rehearsal EP available for download on their official website. The EP consists of new recordings of previously released Primus songs featuring Jay Lane on drums.\nPrimus began their second annual Oddity Faire tour on September 14, 2010, with opening acts Portugal. The Man, Split Lip Rayfield, Mariachi El Bronx, the New Orleans Bingo! Show, Mucca Pazza and Gogol Bordello. The Squidling Brothers Circus Sideshow performers also entertained the crowd between bands on select dates. To promote this tour, Primus appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live! in September. The Oddity Faire tour did not include dates in Primus's hometown, the San Francisco Bay Area, because for promotional purposes it was too near to the planned New Year's dates December 30 and 31 in Oakland.[22]\nTheir song \"Jerry Was a Race Car Driver\" is included in the video game Rock Band 3, which was released October 26, 2010.[23]\nIn interviews conducted backstage at the Soundwave Festival in March 2011, Claypool said of the new Primus album \"we've recorded it, we just need to polish it\", and that the release date \"should be around May or so\".[24] He also described the new material as being \"very reminiscent of Frizzle Fry\".[25] In May, it was revealed that the album was complete and had been named Green Naugahyde, though the release date was pushed back to July to avoid the holidays.[26] On June 6, a press release was issued announcing that the album would be released by ATO Records and Prawn Song on September 13, 2011.[27] A second press release was later issued announcing that the album would be released in Europe on September 12.[28] On August 17, the track \"Tragedy's a' Comin'\" was made available to stream via the Spin magazine website,[29] followed by \"HOINFODAMAN\" on September 1 via the Rolling Stone site.[30] On September 8, the TV show South Park made the entire album available for streaming to anybody who \"likes\" their Facebook page, including \"Those Damned Blue-Collar Tweekers\" as a bonus track.[31]\nPrimus continued to tour throughout 2011, playing a number of dates in North America in May and June, including the Bonnaroo Music Festival,[32] followed by a tour of Europe from late June to mid July. They then returned to America to play a few more music festivals leading into early August, including a show at the Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Denver, Colorado with the Flaming Lips, before embarking on a \"major fall tour\" in support of the new album.[27]\nIn the fall of 2012, the band went on tour with the \"first ever\" 3D-enhanced live musical performance. Each show featured Quad Surround Sound and 3D visuals.[33]\nDuring March 2013, the band played for the very first time in Mexico City.\nElectric Grapevine and the Chocolate Factory (2013\u20132017)\nIn September 2013, Claypool revealed that Lane had departed Primus to focus on RatDog with Bob Weir. Previous drummer Tim Alexander has rejoined the band in his place. Claypool also revealed that the band were \"talking about going into the studio in November. But it's all a little premature - we'll see what happens\".[34] In December, Tim revealed that the band had been \"in Les's studio working on stuff for the new year's show but I don't know if there are any plans for releasing that.\" When asked about performing new material during the 2014 Australia tour, he said \"looking at [the band's touring schedule], it doesn't look like there's going to be any time to write anything new.\"[35]\nThe first official Primus show with Alexander back on drums was New Year's Eve 2013 at the Fox Theater in Oakland. The band performed their first set in front of the iconic Suck On This backdrop seen in the \"Too Many Puppies\" music video. For their second set, Primus were joined by \"the Frog Brigade Ensemble\", consisting of saxophonist Skerik and percussionist Mike Dillon, as they performed the soundtrack from the 1971 film Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory in its entirety. The band later announced that a studio recording of the soundtrack, titled Primus & the Chocolate Factory with the Fungi Ensemble, would be released on October 21, 2014.[36]\nOn September 16, 2014, a biography of the band was released via Akashic Books titled Primus, Over the Electric Grapevine: Insight into Primus and the World of Les Claypool, written by music journalist and author Greg Prato in affiliation with Primus.[37] The book chronicles the band's career alongside Claypool's other projects and features interviews with band members past and present, as well as Geddy Lee, Tom Waits, Tom Morello, Kirk Hammett, Stewart Copeland, Trey Anastasio, and Matt Stone, among others.\nIn late October 2015, the band released the first music video from their Primus & the Chocolate Factory with the Fungi Ensemble album, for the track \"Candyman\".\nIn mid October 2016, the band performed at the fifth annual Desert Daze music festival in Joshua Tree, California.[38]\nThe Desaturating Seven (2017\u2013present)\nOn July 31, 2017, Primus announced their ninth studio album The Desaturating Seven and a US tour. On that same day, the album's first single \"The Seven\" was also released. The album is inspired by the children's book The Rainbow Goblins, written by Italian author Ul de Rico, which lead singer and bassist Les Claypool used to read to his children.[39] It was released on September 29, 2017. During their co-headling tour with Mastodon in 2018, the band played the album in its entirety.[40]\ncatal\u00e0: Primus\n\u010de\u0161tina: Primus (hudebn\u00ed skupina)\nCymraeg: Primus\ndansk: Primus\nDeutsch: Primus (Band)\nespa\u00f1ol: Primus\nEsperanto: Primus\nfran\u00e7ais: Primus (groupe)\ngalego: Primus\n\ud55c\uad6d\uc5b4: \ud504\ub77c\uc774\uba38\uc2a4 (\ubc34\ub4dc)\nBahasa Indonesia: Primus\nitaliano: Primus\n\u05e2\u05d1\u05e8\u05d9\u05ea: \u05e4\u05e8\u05d9\u05d9\u05de\u05d5\u05e1\n\u10e5\u10d0\u10e0\u10d7\u10e3\u10da\u10d8: Primus\nlatvie\u0161u: Primus\nmagyar: Primus (egy\u00fcttes)\nNederlands: Primus (band)\n\u65e5\u672c\u8a9e: \u30d7\u30e9\u30a4\u30de\u30b9 (\u30d0\u30f3\u30c9)\nnorsk: Primus (band)\nnorsk nynorsk: Musikkgruppa Primus\npolski: Primus\nportugu\u00eas: Primus (banda)\n\u0440\u0443\u0441\u0441\u043a\u0438\u0439: Primus\nsuomi: Primus (yhtye)\nsvenska: Primus (musikgrupp)\n\u0e44\u0e17\u0e22: \u0e44\u0e1e\u0e23\u0e21\u0e31\u0e2a\nT\u00fcrk\u00e7e: Primus\n\u0443\u043a\u0440\u0430\u0457\u043d\u0441\u044c\u043a\u0430: Primus",

        "raw_content": "EC Presidency Conference on Wilderness and Large Natural Habitat Areas\nKeynote speakers for the opening session (left to right): Toby Aykroyd (Director, Wild Europe), Ladislav Miko (Environment Minister, Czech Republic), Vaclav Havel (former President, Czech Republic), Mike Hammell (Acting Director, European Commission, DG Environment), Luc Marie Gnacadja (Executive Secretary, United Nations CCD)\nThe EC Presidency Conference on Wilderness and Large Natural Habitat Areas, held in Prague on 28/29 May 2009, developed a series of policy recommendations for protection and restoration of Europe\u2019s wilderness and wild areas.\nIntroduced by Vaclav Havel, former President of the Czech Republic, it was organized over a two day period by the Wild Europe partnership and hosted jointly by the EU Presidency (Czech Republic) and the European Commission.\nOver 240 participants from 36 countries took part, representing government ministries, conservation agencies, NGOs and academic institutions, as well as a wide range of interests from landowning, agriculture, forestry, business, academic and other sectors.\nThe Conference assessed a number of key issues, including:\nThe definition and location of wild areas\nDetermining their contribution to halting biodiversity loss\nHow they support the Natura 2000 network of protected areas\nRecommendations for improved protection within the existing legal framework\nReview of opportunities for restoration of large natural habitat areas\nDefining the value of economic, social and environmental benefits from wild areas\nAn action agenda for Europe\u2019s remaining wild areas\nThe participants of the Prague conference propose 24 recommendations\nA key outcome was the development of a \u2018Message from Prague\u2019, containing 24 recommendations identified by the participants, including policy\ndevelopment, research and awareness building as key elements for an ambitious and groundbreaking agenda including policy development, research, awareness raising and partnerships which will create a wilder Europe, both in EU and non EU regions.\n\u201cEurope should be proud and treasure the wilderness it still has, but it needs to do more\u201d said Ladislav Miko, Minister of the Environment of the Czech Republic. Wilderness and wild areas form less than one percent of Europe\u2019s surface but are a vital part of its natural heritage. Many of them are facing imminent threats that require a rapid and effective response.\nVaclav Havel, former President of the Czech Republic, commenting on the social and ethical aspects of the issue noted that \u201cWe are blurring natural boundaries: forests are no longer forests, meadows are no longer meadows. We have lost sight of eternity and infinity and are destroying nature for future generations.\u201d\nEconomist and study leader of the Economics of Ecosystems and Biodiversity (TEEB) report Pavan Sukhdev, noted that \u201cWe are prisoners of a system which favors manmade capital over national capital and human capital and favor private goods over public goods\u2026 that is the problem.\u201d Wild areas are the insurance for our future and investing in them remains critical.\nWilderness - the building block for a greener Europe\nOver the last 40 years, some 25% of biodiversity on the planet has been lost due to the destruction of habitats, overexploitation, pollution, and increasingly climate change and invasive species. In the EU alone, 60% of most valuable habitats are in unfavorable conservation status. \u201cThe commitment by governments to halting the loss of biodiversity by 2010 seems increasingly out of reach and Europe will have to re-double its efforts if it is to come close to this target. European wilderness is the building block for a greener Europe\u201d said Ladislav Miko.\n\u201cThe conference inspires us all to start rethinking our relationship to nature. During the Swedish Presidency special attention will be given to the links between biodiversity, ecosystem services, climate change, and human well being\u201d stated Asa Norrman, Nature Director, Ministry of the Environment of Sweden, closing the conference.",

        "raw_content": "Clarksburg,PR Advice,PS I Love You,Public Relations,Wine\nThis is worth sharing, because it\u2019s exemplary. It demonstrates that there are those within the wine business who care deeply for the people who are also caring for their businesses.\nThis story celebrates Lizz Castillo, a young woman who\u2019s worked very hard in the wine business to get where she is, and is going to be working even harder in the next chapter of her professional growth. Our vineyard directors (of one position or another) are unsung heroes. In my mind, it\u2019s a time to honor women who have gone after what they\u2019ve wanted and have succeeded. I admire this young woman, as much as I admire Steve and Mike Heringer.\nHeringer Estates ~ Vineyard and Winery\nIt came in an email, and I stashed it for this very moment. It was shared by my friends at Heringer Estates ,located in Clarksburg. When I began PS I Love You, the advocacy group for Petite Sirah, Steve Heringer was one of the very first growers to join. He didn\u2019t even had a wine brand, yet. That was to come in the future. He did, however, understand the importance of supporting an advocacy group, which would ultimately help him to grow. Steve Heringer wanted to support the effort. He was even president of our board of directors in the early years. I watched his company grow to where he also created his own brand and then brought in his son Steve to help his family grow. I\u2019ve been able to watch his family business grow, and it\u2019s heartwarming. I\u2019ve come into his database for sharing. This was such good news. I\u2019m going to share it, too, because this young lady deserves the spotlight for so many reasons, I can\u2019t even list them all.\nWhat\u2019s important is her voice, through her content.\nIt\u2019s great public relations and it\u2019s heartwarming\nIt is with mixed emotions that I inform you all of my departure from the role of Vineyard & Winery Relations Coordinator with Heringer Estates. As some of you may already know, I was fortunate enough to be accepted into the Master\u2019s program of Viticulture and Enology with UC Davis, which requires me to shift my focus to my academic career. I will still be with the Heringer family but in a much more behind-the-scenes role. While I am excited for this new chapter, I am also saddened by the idea of leaving this position behind. You are all such amazing people who have shown me nothing but kindness, and for that, I am grateful. I hope that our paths cross again in the future.\nPlease rest assured that you are all still in great hands. Winemaker Mike Heringer and Cellar Assistant Brittany Leininger will both be stepping in to assist you with harvest logistics, grape sales, and bulk wine needs.

        "raw_content": "Detroit Hops, Skips, Jumps Into the Recordbook\nAuthor: Sol NeelmanSol Neelman\nWorld's Longest Hopscotch\nDozens of people took to the streets of Detroit to set a record for the world's longest hopscotch. The path includes a stretch of Woodward Avenue, creating a natural photo op for quincea\u00f1era and bridal parties posing for photos in front of the Detroit Institute of Arts Museum. Photo: Sol Neelman/Wired\nDETROIT \u2013 For the record, hopscotch is not easy, especially when the course is 4 miles long.\n\"I was happy I did one block,\" 15-year-old Alicia Walker said of the record-setting course that wove through downtown Detroit. \"Quite an accomplishment.\"\n\"You think Dance Dance Revolution is a workout?\" added her brother, 12-year-old Darrell Walker, Jr. \"This was terrible. My ankle is, like, numb right now.\"\nNo kidding. All that jumping and skipping can be tough. Few seemed to mind, however, as they hopped, skipped and jumped their way through Hopscotch Detroit.\nYou don't hear a lot of good news coming out of Motown, where at least the Tigers made the playoffs. It\u2019s a city where Robert Collier, a 16-year-old artist, sometimes wonders if he\u2019ll see adulthood. \u201cMy fear of the city is to die young,\u201d he said. \u201cAll you hear about is young people getting killed.\"\nThat\u2019s why the thought of a record-setting hopscotch through Detroit is so epic and wonderful. And weird.\nVolunteers spent four days stenciling 22,000 squares onto the sidewalk from downtown Detroit to Wayne State University. The course in front of the Detroit Institute of Arts Museum received some artistic flare from local artists. Photo: Sol Neelman/Wired\nThe artists at design collective Wedge joined the folks at Imagine Detroit Together to create the world\u2019s longest hopscotch course. The previous record, 3.4 miles, was set 12 months ago by students at the University of Guelph in Eden Mills, Ontario.\nThe point of the Sept. 22 exercise was to set a record, yes, but also to unite people by encouraging them to play together. Honestly, though, there wasn't a sudden surge of hopping in the Motor City. Young kids going to the YMCA skipped along the course with their parents or students headed to class, but more often than not, people walked along either oblivious or indifferent to the hopscotch course at their feet.\nThere were a couple of \u201choppers\u201d who did the entire course, which stretched from downtown to Wayne State University, passing landmarks like the Detroit Institute of Arts, a liquor store, Comerica Park and local icon Slows To Go BBQ. There were also some logical, logistical hurdles along the way, too.\n\"That's not a bike lane,\" Collier's mom, Bridgett Miller, yelled playfully at a passerby. \"That's a hopscotch lane!\" (Oops.)\nAnd just how do you lay down a 4-mile hopscotch course of 22,000 squares? Slowly.\nThe process starts with the \u201cchalk,\u201d a not-so-secret mixture of water, corn starch, sugar, flour and tempera paint. More than a dozen volunteers spent more than four days laying down the path of white, orange and pink squares. Mother nature didn't help, washing away some of the course, requiring touch-ups here and there.\nAlthough the organizers hoped to hit 4.2 miles, the course came in at 3.75. No one involved in the project harbors any illusion that a game of hopscotch will solve the city\u2019s ills. But it can bring a bit of happiness to a city that needs it, and get people thinking a little differently about where they live.\n\"I'm an optimist,\" Ajooni Sethi, an activist with Wedge. \"We wanted to show people what was happening in this crust of Detroit because there's this negative perception against this city. I don't know another city where a bunch of young people could feel that they contributed something.\"\nArtist Robert Collier, far left, created a helmet as a metaphor for Detroit. People write their fears on the outside and paste photos of what they love inside. \"On the outside, it looks scary,\" he said. \"When you go in the inside, you see some really good stuff that's happening.\" Collier was among the participants in Hopscotch Detroit; the route passed the gallery featuring his work. Photo: Sol Neelman/Wired\nAlthough the course meandered from downtown Detroit to Wayne State college, the section outside the local YMCA saw the most action. Photo: Sol Neelman/Wired",

As reported by The Columbus Dispatch, the money has been approved to allow the Ohio Department of Health to assist hospitals in dealing with current related issues or future cases of the disease.\nAs noted in the report, the vote by the oversight panel came as a request was made by the congressional delegation in Ohio that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention increase support to the state after a Texas nurse diagnosed with Ebola flew to Ohio.\nRep. Jeff McClain, R-Upper Sandusky, who is a member of the Controlling Board, is quoted in the report as stating of the efforts made by the state, \u201cGod willing we don\u2019t have a disaster that nobody can handle\u2026I think the governor has done much better than the feds have.

They have met every year since to read and discuss papers, which have been published in these Proceedings. Although these are not primary sources, we have included them at Turning Points in Wisconsin History because they bring together a wealth of useful scholarship not easily found elsewhere and because the earlier volumes are now extremely rare. Because they total more than 1,500 pages, we have broken the series into three separate sequences.\nSome of the articles in volumes 1-10 document school forests, log marks, remarkable tree sizes, tanneries, John F. Deitz and the Cameron Dam, the Northern Wisconsin Settler Relocation Project, logging on the Lac Court Oreilles and Menominee Indian Reservations, the Civilian Conservation Corps, forest fire protection, and the towns of Merrill and Drummond, Wis.

        "raw_content": "Pennsylvania, California, Arkansas Sign on as First Earth Hour States\nState Capitol Domes to go Dark in Harrisburg, Little Rock\nWASHINGTON, March 26, 2009 \u2013 Pennsylvania, California and Arkansas have joined the Earth Hour movement, becoming the first US states to pledge support for the global climate change event in which hundreds of millions of people around the world will turn off their lights this Saturday for one hour, at 8:30 pm, to cast a powerful, visual vote for action on climate change.\nEarlier today, the State of Arkansas announced it will be turning off the lights on the state capitol dome and the governor\u2019s mansion in Little Rock for Earth Hour. The dome on Pennsylvania\u2019s capitol building in Harrisburg will also be going dark.\n\u201cEarth Hour is a symbolic event that demonstrates that everyone in every country must play a role in addressing the critical issue of climate change,\u201d said Dr. Richard Moss, vice president for climate change at World Wildlife Fund, which is organizing Earth Hour. \u201cAs state governments join with cities, national governments, international bodies, businesses and individual citizens to turn out the lights for Earth Hour, it symbolizes that action will be required at all levels \u2013 from local to global \u2013 to solve the climate crisis.\u201d\nLast Wednesday, March 18, Pennsylvania became the first Earth Hour state when its House of Representatives passed a resolution declaring 8:30 to 9:30 pm on Saturday, March 28, as \u201cEarth Hour\u201d in the commonwealth of Pennsylvania. The California legislature followed suit this week with passage of an Earth Hour resolution on Monday. In both states, the legislatures urged residents, businesses and state employees to participate in Earth Hour by turning off all non-essential lighting on homes, businesses and state buildings for the hour.\nPennsylvania State Representative Tim Briggs, who introduced his state\u2019s Earth Hour resolution, said: \u201cFighting global warming will take a concerted effort at every level, from the family who separates out its recycling each week to the federal government working to cut carbon emissions nationwide. We are all in this together and I\u2019m proud that Pennsylvania continues to be a leader in the green movement.\u201d\n\u201cBy promoting the worldwide event and calling on all Californians to participate, we can further contribute to reducing greenhouse gases and help bring awareness to over 35 million Californians on how they can contribute to fighting global warming,\u201d said California State Senator Patricia Wiggins (D), the sponsor of the California Earth Hour resolution. \u201cI encourage everyone to join me in this effort and do all you can to promote this important, worldwide event.\u201d\n\u201cWe know that turning out the lights for one hour will not solve the climate change crisis,\u201d said Moss. \u201cEarth Hour is a symbolic event, but symbols have played an important role in the political history of our country \u2013 from the Boston tea party to Dr. Martin Luther King\u2019s march on Selma. We hope that the symbolism of Earth Hour will likewise motive people to act.\u201d\nMore than 2,600 cities in over 80 countries, including more than 220 cities in the US, will be participating in Earth Hour on Saturday. Key landmarks going dark for the event include the National Cathedral in Washington, Broadway, Las Vegas strip, Niagara Falls, Empire State Building, Eiffel Tower and Elysee Palace in Paris, the Great Pyramids and Sphinx in Egypt, London Eye, and Petronas Towers in Kuala Lumpur.\nAbout World Wildlife Fund and Earth Hour\nEarth Hour (www.EarthHourUS.org) is a global initiative of WWF in which millions of people around the world will cast a vote in favor of action on climate change by turning off their lights for one hour on March 28, 2009 at 8:30 pm local time. By voting with their light switches, Earth Hour participants will send a powerful, visual message to their leaders demanding immediate action on climate change. WWF is the world\u2019s leading conservation organization, working in 100 countries for nearly half a century. With the support of almost 5 million members worldwide, WWF is dedicated to delivering science-based solutions to preserve the diversity and abundance of life on Earth, stop the degradation of the environment and combat climate change.

        "raw_content": "Press Release \u2022 Wednesday, February 26th 2014\nEyewitnesses describe \u2018pandemonium\u2019 as violence breaks out in Malakal\nJUBA, South Sudan (February 24, 2014) \u2014) Last week\u2019s fighting around Malakal, in the Upper Nile State, displaced thousands and left many dead. Eyewitnesses report that hundreds of decomposing corpses still lay strewn all over the town.\nWorld Vision's specialist on water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH), Paul Skayem, along with water engineer Paul Otto, were in Malakal during the attack. They described what transpired as \"horrific.\"\n\u201cLast Tuesday at 7:30 in the morning, there were shouts from armed men who were charging toward our camp. Pandemonium broke out. Some of us fled into the bunker, while others were petrified and remained within their tents,\u201d Paul Otto said.\nAccording to Otto, South Sudanese nationals within the United Nations Mission in South Sudan (UNMISS) compound, who had been displaced by earlier fighting, either took refuge in the bunker alongside agencies or fled the compound with some killed or injured.\n\u201cThe shooting and detonation of bombs went on for two to three hours, as we sat in great fear within the bunker, along with colleagues from other agencies including United Nations staff members,\u201d Otto said.\nA military checkpoint that was stationed approximately a half mile from the UNMISS compound, where a tank had been based, was completely destroyed. Decomposing bodies of soldiers in uniform now litter the area.\n\u201cThe water pipeline was destroyed. The UNMISS compound and the adjacent Protection of Civilians area, where displaced people were living and World Vision and other agencies have been working, was without water for three days,\u201d Paul Skayem said.\nInitial relief efforts by humanitarian agencies to reach 28,000 people, who\u2019d sought sanctuary in the town's UNMISS compound, were halted amidst the heavy fighting between government and opposition forces. The fighting also severely hindered efforts to reach the hundreds of thousands spread across Malakal town and other locations within the Upper Nile State.\nMany of the displaced reportedly remain in hiding along river banks, behind shrubs, in trenches or any other landscape that provides suitable cover. Others who had sought refuge in Malakal town within the St. Joseph\u2019s Catholic church compound, or at Malakal Boys High School and at the Malakal Teaching hospital, have since fled.\nThose made homeless by the fighting now face a growing crisis. Most food and essential supplies, together with many personal belongings, were looted during the exchange of fire.\nWorld Vision assists the survivors\nWhen the fighting subsided and calm returned to the area, World Vision\u2019s response team swung into action, reaching out to those who survived the attack.\n\u201cOur staff joined other agencies and immediately repaired the destroyed water system. People within the UNMISS compound now receive 2,015 litres of water per day. It\u2019s still very much inadequate, but it\u2019s making a big difference,\u201d Skayem said.\nThe World Vision response team is currently involved in relief food distribution within the UNMISS compound.\n\u201cWe, along with other agencies, are assessing the food situation. Together with MSF, we are evacuating patients and those injured from Malakal town,\u201d World Vision\u2019s Response Manager in South Sudan Philippe Guiton noted.\n\u201cOver the last two days, World Vision has distributed relief supplies within the Malakal compound to about 9,000 people, with a total of 150,000 pounds of food,\u201d Guiton added, stressing that resources remain thin on the ground.\nWith the violence in Malakal temporarily subsiding, reports received by World Vision indicate that fighting has now erupted near Rom, which is nearly 50 miles north of Malakal. World Vision has expanded its relief and Non Food Items (NFI) distribution to the area.\nGuiton says that the initial plan was for the response team to help those within Malakal town, then extend the relief response to about 10,000 displaced people within the Rom area, but the fighting that is reported in that region will likely hamper those efforts.\nOver 800,000 South Sudanese have been internally displaced, with another 145,000 fleeing to neighbouring countries.",

Preview\nJanuary continues its slow roll on the Specialty side this weekend with very few anticipated limited releases. IFC Films has the headliner of the weekend with political thriller An Acceptable Loss starring Tika Sumpter and Jamie Lee Curtis. Chicago Fire director Joe Chappelle wrote and directed the title after finding inspiration from two documentaries by Errol Morris. Brooklyn-based Distrib Films believes it found an under-the-radar gem in last year\u2019s Berlin Film Festival with The Heiresses, which took two Silver Bears at the event in the German capital.\nOther openers this weekend include Screen Media\u2019s 2016 Tribeca Nora Ephron prize-winner Adult Life Skills, as well as Freestyle Digital Media\u2019s I Hate The Kids and RLJE Films\u2019 The Standoff at Sparrow Creek.\n'The Aspern Papers', 'Rockaway', 'Jobe'z World' Seek Weekend Traction - Specialty Box Office Preview\n'State Like Sleep', 'Rust Creek' & 'Mojin' Sequel Ring In 2019 - Specialty Preview\nBarry Jenkins Back With 'Beale Street'; Lars Von Trier Has 'House That Jack Built' - Specialty B.O. Preview\nDirector-writer: Joe Chappelle\nCast: Tika Sumpter, Jamie Lee Curtis, Ben Tavassoli, Jeff Hephner\nVeteran TV director Joe Chappelle had the idea for a narrative feature film after watching two Errol Morris documentaries, The Fog of War: Eleven Lessons from the Life of Robert S. McNamara (2003) and The Unknown Known (2013) which focuses on former U.S. Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld. From there he and his filmmaking team added a twist.\n\u201cEach man looks back at the wars they orchestrated,\u201d observed Chappelle. \u201cI was fascinated by their approach. In The Fog of War, you can tell McNamara was haunted and feels guilt. In The Unknown Known, I was struck by how Rumsfeld was straightforward and said he\u2019d do it again. I felt there was a movie there.\u201d\nChappelle said that he took the idea to his producer (and spouse) Colleen Griffen who suggested making it about two women, which he liked. \u201cI had to come up with a central component, and in this case, it\u2019s a fatal blow to terrorists.\u201d\nThe film follows Libby Lamm (Tika Sumpter), a former top national security advisor who, while working with Rachel Burke (Jamie Lee Curtis), a ruthless, steely political veteran, signed off on a controversial military action that was supposed to end the war on terror. The problem: thousands died under false pretenses. Haunted by what she knows, Libby sets out to tell the truth, risking treason \u2014 and her own life \u2014 to expose a cover-up that stretches all the way to the highest levels of government. This gripping saga of lies, conspiracy, and betrayal is an explosive look at what it takes to do the right thing \u2014 even if that means going up against your own country.\nChappelle wrote a number of drafts through 2016 and by the end of the year, he felt comfortable to send a version out to actors. Jamie Lee Curtis was the first to board at the beginning of 2017 and through her participation, private equity investors came on as well.\n\u201cColleen met executive producer Candy Straight at an [IFP event] and she said she was looking for a female-driven political thriller,\u201d said Chappelle. \u201cWe sent her the script and she liked it. Then they raised money.\u201d With Curtis already in place, the filmmaking team went on the search for her counterpart, eventually tapping Tika Sumpter.\nAn Acceptable Loss shot over 30 days in the Chicago area. \u201cWe live in Illinois,\u201d said Chappelle. \u201cSo I wrote for locations that I am familiar with. I\u2019ve shot in Chicago for Chicago Fire for a few years, so I was able to tailor the script to what would be practical.\u201d The project used locations in the city\u2019s downtown and North Side as well as the northern suburbs and Waukegan, Illinois, near the Wisconsin border, which doubled for the Illinois state capital Springfield.\n\u201cFor a shoot, it went well,\u201d said Chappelle. \u201cEveryone came in prepared and the weather was thankfully not a factor.\u201d The title was edited over the fall on evenings and weekends while Chappelle continued with his day job. Picture was locked in late 2017, while the project was completed in April 2018 after adding music and effects.\nIFC Films came on board in fall of last year in a sale via CAA. The film will open IFC Center in New York in addition to VOD platforms Friday. The title will also open in L.A. and other select cities January 25.\nDirector-writer: Marcelo Martinessi\nCast: Ana Brun, Margarita Ir\u00fan, Ana Ivanova\nDistributor: Distrib Films\nDirector Marcelo Martinessi\u2019s drama The Heiresses\nwon two Silver Bears including Best Actress for Ana Brun at last year\u2019s Berlin Film Festival where Brooklyn-based company Distrib Films saw the feature. The title is also Paraguay\u2019s entry this year for foreign language Oscar consideration, though it\u2019s not on the short list.\nThe Heiresses centers on Chela and Chiquita who have been romantic partners for decades and lifelong members of Paraguay\u2019s elite \u2013 until the money runs out. Now they spend their days selling their furniture, glassware and silver to anyone who will make them an offer. When Chiquita, the more garrulous and resilient of the two women, is sent to prison, Chela has to cope with loneliness and incipient poverty. Then surprising new options develop for Chela, both personally and professionally.\n\u201cIt was a very different movie from all the others I was seeing,\u201d explained Distrib Films\u2019 Fran\u00e7ois Scippa Kohn. \u201cIt is very human. It\u2019s LGBT without being the central [component of the story]. It reminded me of [Chilean film] Gloria from [2013].\u201d\nScippa Kohn said he saw the \u201ctiny Paraguayan\u201d movie early on during the festival and was able to jump on it while \u201cprices weren\u2019t high.\u201d He noted there has been \u201ca lot of inquiry\u201d about the film since Distrib along with an Italian partner took various rights.\n\u201cWhen you\u2019re at a festival seeing a bunch of movies, you can get a gut feeling and that\u2019s [what happened for me] with this film,\u201d he said. Distrib\u2019s core content has been French films for U.S. release, but Scippa Kohn said they have \u201cenlarged our horizons\u201d with films from other regions, including Latin America. The company teamed with New York-based non profit media and arts organization, Cinema Tropical, which champions Latin American film stateside to help spread the word.\n\u201cThey do great outreach with Latin American press and audiences,\u201d said Scippa Kohn. \u201cThey\u2019re also very good with grassroots work. For this, they are specifically [targeting] Paraguayans living [here].\u201d He added that the organization is also reaching out to the LGBT community.\nLast year, Distrib Films released five films with traditional theatrical runs beginning in New York and L.A., but additionally, the company released more titles outside that traditional NYC/Los Angeles template. Said Scippa Kohn: \u201cIf we think New York is going to be tough, we won\u2019t push for it. We\u2019d rather go to other larger cities in the U.S. if we think they will be more successful [locally].\u201d The exec said he expects its release slate to be approximately the same number for 2019.\nThe company said it\u2019s banking on a \u201cgood New York Times review\u201d to help propel The Heiresses beyond its New York bow this weekend at Film Forum. The feature will also head to L.A., Boston, Miami, Chicago and other cities.\u201d\nDirector-writer: Rachel Tunnard\nCast: Jodie Whittaker, Lorraine Ashbourne, Edward Hogg, Breet Goldstien, Rachael Deering\nDistributor: Screen Media\nFilmmaker Rachel Tunnard won Best Debut Screenwriter at the British Independent Film Awards for her work on Adult Life Skills (she also won the Tribeca Film Festival\u2019s Nora Ephron Prize when the film debuted there in 2016). The movie is based on Tunnard\u2019s short film Emotional Fusebox, which was nominated for both a BAFTA and BIFA. Screen Media picked up the feature late last year and will have a day and date roll out this weekend.\nThe film centers on Anna, who feels stuck as she approaches her 30th birthday. Regressing to a teenager and living like a hermit in her mother\u2019s garden shed, she wonders why the suffragettes ever bothered. She spends her days making videos using her thumbs as actors, but Anna doesn\u2019t show these videos to anyone. A week before her birthday, her mother serves an ultimatum \u2014 she needs to move out of the shed, get a haircut that doesn\u2019t put her gender in question and stop dressing like a homeless teen. When her friend comes to visit, Anna\u2019s self-imposed isolation becomes impossible to maintain. Soon she is entangled with a troubled eight year old boy obsessed with Westerns, and the local real estate agent whose awkwardness continually undermines his attempt to seduce her.\nFunding for the project came via private investors as well as a number of foundations and groups including Creative England, Seed Enterprise Investment Scheme, Film Vast in Sweden and Wellcome Trust in addition to pre-sales in the U.K. and Sweden.\nWhile financing was being sorted, Tunnard received word that her lead, Jodie Whittaker \u2014 Adult Life Skills was filmed the year prior to Whittaker joining the cast of Doctor Who \u2014 was pregnant. \u201cWe had to make a decision to either shoot immediately in six weeks, delay the film for a year or recast,\u201d said Tunnard via notes sent from Screen Media. \u201cI had written the film for Jodie and she is one of my best friends, so the decision was pretty straightforward.\u201d\nIn addition to being on demand, Screen Media is opening Adult Life Skills theatrically in select locations in New York, L.A., San Francisco, Austin, Cleveland, Seattle , Denver, Detroit, Minneapolis and Phoenix.",

In an effort to be a good role model to his son, Larry submits resumes to various places, including the local museum. The museum's current security guard is retiring so he decides to hire Larry as his replacement. Larry ends up as the only night security guard in the museum. Through a turn of events, a strange artifact places an unusual power inside the museum, which brings the statues and figures inside to life.\nAmong some of the more unusual figures which come to life every night during Larry's watch is a skeletal tyrannosaurus nicknamed Rexy. Rexy is actually very friendly and behaves more like a dog than a meat eating dinosaur. There are also some miniature figurines which include an old west set with a cowboy named Jedediah, played by Owen Wilson. Jedediah is at war with another miniature set of figurines from the Roman army.\nLarry often tries to play mediator in keeping the peace between the two sets of figurines. There is also a full sized figure of Theodore Roosevelt on horseback, who is played by Robin Williams. Teddy Roosevelt often provides advice for Larry in dealing with the situations which arise.\nAmidst the fun and frivolity in the museum at night there is also mischief in the form of an annoying monkey who does not like Larry and a figure of Attila the Hun who constantly chases Larry through the museum. The movie also incorporates an underlying story involving the retired security guard and his two colleagues who were dismissed. It seems the trio have been planning to rob the museum of some of its more valuable artifacts.\nAction, Adventure, Comedy, Kids & Family, Fantasy\nBen Stiller, Carla Gugino, Dick Van Dyke, Mickey Rooney\nMore Like Night at the Museum\nNight at the Museum News\nMickey Rooney, Hollywood Legend, Dies at Age 93\nHollywood has lost a true legend, as character actor Mickey Rooney passed away Sunday.

        "raw_content": "Jack MaHeard the name. Now know his story! Published On: Thursday, August 27, 2015\tViews 7121\nThis is the story of one of our personal favourites, a perfect rags-to-the-riches tale of Jack Ma or Ma Yun \u2013 the Founder and Executive Chairman of the billion dollar Alibaba Group.\nBorn on the 15th of October 1964; A widely known Chinese business magnate and a generous philanthropist, Jack is not only the first mainland Chinese entrepreneur to have appeared on the cover of Forbes but with an estimated net worth of $21.7 Billion he is also the richest man in China and the 36th richest person in the world.\nOther than that; from a sports team to a film production studio, Jack also has a huge list of other investments across the globe.\nWhat is even worth pointing out is that; Alibaba is worth more than Facebook, and also processes more goods than eBay and Amazon together. Having said all that; he still only holds a 7.8% stake in Alibaba and a 50% stake in Alipay.\nYet as an active philanthropist, he sits on the board of the \u2018Breakthrough Prize in Life Sciences\u2019 with fellow billionaires Mark Zuckerberg and Yuri Milner.\nJack recently came under the world spotlight, with his record-breaking $25 billion IPO (initial public offering) of his Alibaba Group on the New York Stock Exchange in September 2014.\nTalking about his personal life; jack is married to college-time friend Zhang Ying and they have two daughters and a son.\nFlash Back Into The Beginning Of Jack Ma!\nNow Jack\u2019s story has so much, that a book would still be less to cover the saga. Hence, we have tried our best to give you the best peep!\nAnyway, so this is how began!\nBorn to a below-middle class family of traditional Musicians-Storytellers, Jack was born and raised along with an elder brother and a younger sister. This was during the time when communist China had risen to power and had got isolated from the rest of the Western regions.\nSince a very early age he had developed a sense of inclination towards learning English and used to travel to the nearby hotel on his bike each morning to converse with foreigners and guide them around the city.\nThis is when he happened to become good friends with a foreigner found his real Chinese name difficult to pronounce and gave him the name \u201cJack\u201d.\nAs he grew up, after failing the university entrance exam thrice, Jack went on to attend the Hangzhou Normal University and graduated with a bachelor\u2019s degree in English in 1988. He was elected as a student chairman.\nLater, he went on to become a lecturer in English and International Trade at a monthly salary of $12 at the Hangzhou Dianzi University. Along with that, he also continued to further pursue he studies at the Beijing-based Cheung Kong Graduate School of Business (CKGSB) and graduated in 2006.\nAnyway, when China\u2019s export boom happened, Jack had started a translation company, due to which he got the opportunity to visit the United States for the first time in 1994. That is where he discovered the internet!\nA Story Of Alibaba!\nComing back, during this first encounter of the internet, the first word he searched for was \u201cbeer\u201d! Now although, he found a lot of relevant information from many countries, but surprisingly none China! He further went on to search for other general information about China, but to his shock he didn\u2019t find anything, due to which he along with his friend decided to make a website on China.\nAfter receiving numerous emails from some Chinese wanting to know about him, he was made to realise just how much potential internet held.\nHence, together with his wife and a friend, Jack collected $20,000 and started an Internet company in April 1995. The company was called \u201cChina Yellow Pages\u201d which was mainly dedicated to creating websites for companies. It was even said that it was the first internet business in China.\nIn the next three years, this company of theirs went on to make 5,000,000 Chinese Yuan (U$800,000 back then). But China Yellow Pages also turned out to be a highly frustrating one for him!\nWhy? Because even after making great money, Jack after a period of time was pressured to get into a joint venture with China Telecom and then eventually he lost control of the company \u2013 as reported by Business Insider.\nNot letting this affect him, Jack moved on to head the information technology company established by the China International Electronic Commerce Center, a department of the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation.\nAnd after working with them for roughly a year, in 1999 he quit the company and with a team of 18 co-founders started Alibaba.com!\nAfter quitting his job, he moved back to his hometown Hangzhou (a city near Shanghai) along with his 18 member team and with an investment of with 500,000 Yuan from his pocket, Jack formally established Alibaba in his apartment.\nAlibaba.com leveraged exporters to post product listings that buyers could browse and purchase, basically it was a marketplace model, but without any inventory of their own. Soon, the website also began attracting a lot of crowd from across the globe and to capitalize on the same, Jack also launched another China marketplace (currently known as 1688.com) for domestic wholesale trade.\nIn the same year itself, with an international venture capital investment of $25 Million from a program that aimed at improving the domestic e-commerce market of China, more specifically the SME (small & medium enterprises) to address WTO challenges, Alibaba began taking the centre stage in the nation.\nOver the period of next few years; Jack went on to fix & glorify the Chinese Internet market with his newly found products like Taobao Marketplace, Alipay, Ali Mama and Lynx.\nTrivia: \u2013 As \u2018taobao\u2019 began to make its presence felt, ebay had tried to buy it. Jack not only rejected their offer, but instead joined hands with the founder of yahoo \u2013 jerry yang, from whom he received a $1 billion investment.\nTo add to that, Alibaba Group also took over the operations of China Yahoo! as part of its strategic partnership with Yahoo! Inc. in October 2005.\nAnd believe it or not, by 2012, Alibaba\u2019s collective online transaction volume had exceeded to a massive one trillion Yuan, and since then onwards Jack has been labelled as \u201cTrillion Hou\u201c, which literally means \u201cTrillion Yuan Marquis\u201d in Chinese.\nNow because of such great success listed under his name, Jack also has been the first preference of all invites to give lectures by famous universities across the globe including Wharton School of Finance at the University of Pennsylvania, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Harvard University, Peking University and many more.\nIn May 2013, Jack who till now had served as CEO of the company, decided to step down and took over the role of the Executive Chairman, soon after which he was also elected to the Foundation Board of the World Economic Forum.\nBut the biggest news of his career came in September 2014, when it was reported that Alibaba Group\u2019s IPO on the NYSE (New York Stock Exchange) has received the largest IPO in US history and has put him on top of the China\u2019s richest.\nSince then, not only has Jack Ma become one of the richest in the world, but Alibaba Group has also become one of the most valuable tech companies in the world as well. And today with a Market Cap of $201.7 Billion, Alibaba along with its nine major subsidiaries \u2013 Alibaba.com, Taobao Marketplace, Tmall, eTao, Alibaba Cloud Computing, Juhuasuan, 1688.com, AliExpress.com and Alipay, has clearly made its way to the global top!\nTrivia: Jack has never actually written a line of code, nor made one Sale to a customer.\nALIBABA \u2013 The Group\nAs we know, Alibaba \u2013 the group is a China-based B2B marketplace that currently serves to members from more than 240 countries and territories.\nA company that is often compared to Amazon, is actually quite the opposite. Unlike its competitors, Alibaba does not buy or sell products by itself, instead, leverages the small businesses to buy and sell their own goods. And with a delivery rate of over 30 million packages per day and sales worth $390 Billion (2014), Alibaba clearly rules its market. With anticipated sales worth $1 trillion, Alibaba is believed to be larger than Wal-mart by the end of FY15this year.\nApart from & before the IPO, Alibaba Group had raised a total of $4.8 Billion from investors like \u2013 blisce/, DST Global, Temasek Holdings, Yahoo! Partner: Jerry Yang, SoftBank Capital, Fidelity Growth Partners Asia, Goldman Sachs, and many more like such!\nTo add to that; in an attempt to expand worldwide and at the same time to strategically position themselves across the globe, Alibaba has made a total of 45 Investments across widely diversified companies globally including Snapdeal ($500 Million) and PayTM ($700 Million) in 2015.\nBelow mentioned are a list of the main subsidiaries listed & operated under the Alibaba Group: \u2013 (Source: \u2013 Alibaba Group)\nThe first business of Alibaba Group. It is the leading platform for global wholesale trade through which small businesses can sell their products to companies in other countries.\nLaunched in 1999, 1688.com is a leading online wholesale marketplace in China, that serves as a wholesale channel for merchants doing business on Alibaba Group\u2019s retail marketplaces to source products from domestic wholesalers.\nLaunched in May 2003, Taobao Marketplace is the online shopping destination for Chinese consumers looking for wide selection, value and convenience.\nAlimama.com\nLaunched in November 2007, Alimama is an online marketing technology platform that offers sellers on Alibaba Group\u2019s marketplaces online marketing services for both personal computers and mobile devices.\nThrough the Taobao Affiliate Network, Alimama also offers these sellers with the provision of marketing their services on third-party websites as well.\nLaunched in April 2008, Tmall provides top-quality branded merchandise to the increasingly sophisticated Chinese consumers.\nEstablished in September 2009, Aliyun (Alibaba Cloud Computing) develops and provides highly scalable cloud computing and data management services to large and small businesses, financial institutions, governments and other organizations with flexible, cost-effective solutions to meet their networking and information needs.\nJuhuasuan.com\nMost popular online group buying marketplace in China Launched in March 2010, Juhuasuan is a group buying marketplace in China that offers quality products at discounted prices through flash sales which make products available at discounted prices for a limited period of time.\nLaunched in April 2010, AliExpress is a global retail marketplace targeted at consumers worldwide, which enables consumers from around the world to buy directly from wholesalers and manufacturers in China.\nAnt Financial services focuses on serving small and micro enterprises and consumers to create an open ecosystem of Internet thinking and technologies. Some of the businesses operated by Ant Financial Services include Alipay, Alipay Wallet, Yu\u2019e Bao, Zhao Cai Bao,\nAnt Micro Loan and Sesame Credit.\nCainiao Logistics operates a logistics information platform which provides real-time access to information for both buyers and sellers, as well as information that allows delivery service providers to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of their services, to meet the current and future logistics demands of China\u2019s online and mobile commerce sector.\nThe Route To India!\nIndian merchants are already the second biggest sellers on the Alibaba.com after the Chinese, who are famously known for their tea, spices, and chocolates.\nBut because India has restrictions on FDI (foreign direct investment) in e-commerce, Alibaba who recently opened a development centre in India may opt a similar path to that of their competitor \u2013 Amazon India, and become a marketplace only for third-party sellers.\nOther than that; Alibaba has also made some strategic and notable backdoor entry in India, also to test the waters, by investing greatly in some of the Internet firms.\nAlibaba had made its first move by investing $700 Million in One97 (parent company of PayTM), and picking up a 25% stake in the firm. The company is also in the advanced stages of its talk with One97 to raise its stake to 40% soon. Secondly and more recently, Alibaba has also invested $500 Million in Snapdeal.com at a valuation of $4-4.5 billion.\nHis achievements are quite honestly beyond count but yet, below mentioned are some of the notable ones: -\nRanked as the \u201c30th most powerful person in the world\u201d by Forbes (2014)\nSelected as one of \u201cAsia\u2019s Heroes of Philanthropy\u201d by Forbes Asia (2010)\nChosen as one of \u201cChina\u2019s Most Powerful People\u201d by BusinessWeek (2009)\nListed as one of the \u201cTop 10 Most Respected Entrepreneurs in China\u201d by Forbes magazine China (2009)\nSelected as a \u201cYoung Global Leader\u201d by the World Economic Forum (2005)\nTags: Jack Ma Alibaba, Jack Ma Success Story",

        "raw_content": "Study shows Wikipedia Accuracy is 99.5%\nLast updated on January 18th, 2016 at 6:33 pm by Mihai Andrei\nWikipedia is a resource used by people everywhere, from middle school students to college students (and it\u2019s safe to say that researchers also use it from time to time). But the blessing and the curse of Wikipedia is that everyone can edit it \u2013 that means that a massive amount of articles can be written and managed, but it also means that inaccurate information can easily sneak in articles. A group of German researchers set out to test that and see just how accurate Wikipedia really is.\n\u201c[The] lack of a formal editorial review and the heterogeneous expertise of contributors often results in skepticism by educators whether Wikipedia should be recommended to students as an information source. In this study we systematically analyzed the accuracy and completeness of drug information in the German and English language versions of Wikipedia in comparison to standard textbooks of pharmacology\u201d, researchers write.\nIndeed, it seems like a good place to start. They analyzed articles on drugs, drawing every piece of relevant information, as well as references, revision history and readability. Their conclusion is that the accuracy of drug information on Wikipedia was 99.7%\u00b10.2% when compared to the textbook data. However, even though the articles were very accurate, they weren\u2019t fully complete. Scientists rate the completeness of articles at 83.8\u00b11.5%. However, completeness had a huge variation, ranging between 68.0% and 91.0%. This difference shows that Wikipedia is not always the best resource to draw complete information from, but it always provides over two thirds of the whole story. Furthermore, from the drug information missing in Wikipedia, 62.5% was rated as didactically non-relevant in a qualitative re-evaluation study.\nThis is crucial especially in areas which change a lot, such as pharmacology. The fact that you have this huge resource from which you can draw massive amounts of information is remarkable. The fact that it is open source, ad free, community driven (though moderated) and still manages to have an almost perfect accuracy is simply amazing! The only problem I have with this study is the sample size. Of course, it\u2019s a tough analysis to conduct, but 100 drugs is still not enough to draw definite conclusions.\nJournal Reference: Jona Kr\u00e4enbring, Tika Monzon Penza, Joanna Gutmann, Susanne Muehlich, Oliver Zolk, Leszek Wojnowski, Renke Maas, Stefan Engelhardt, Antonio Sarikas.

        "raw_content": "What Early Looks From ASH Tell Us About Cancer Immunotherapy\n[Note: Ben Fidler contributed to this report.] Immunotherapy is one of the most promising new ways to fight cancer, and we\u2019ve followed it closely for some time. One of its main proving grounds is in blood-borne cancers, because some of the immunotherapy methods are, at least for now, easier to target in that direction.\nThat\u2019s one reason why the upcoming American Society for Hematology conference\u2014and the research abstracts, or previews, that were released this week\u2014have garnered so much attention. An important caveat is that abstracts are often not representative of final data sets. What researchers report next month in San Francisco might be different than what the abstracts reveal.\nMore cancer immunotherapy news will certainly emerge from the massive volume of abstracts between now and December 6, the first day of ASH. For now, there are several interesting developments to note.\nCancer immunotherapy drugs that attack the PD-1 protein on tumor cell surfaces have made headlines for their effects on solid tumors like melanoma. But the ASH abstracts are providing some guidance how they might work against blood cancers.\nThe initial results seem encouraging: Some 87 percent of Hodgkin\u2019s lymphoma patients who had failed at least three prior therapies responded to nivolumab (Opdivo) from Bristol-Myers Squibb (NYSE: BMY). Pembrolizumab (Keytruda) from Merck (NYSE: MRK) also showed early promise. (Pembrolizumab is approved to treat melanoma in the U.S., nivolumab is approved in Japan but not yet in the U.S.)\nOne hematological cancer that might not respond as well to PD-1 blockers is multiple myeloma. Bristol-Myers Squibb reported that none of the 27 patients with the disease responded to nivolumab. That\u2019s a boon for Summit, NJ-based Celgene (NASDAQ: CELG), as PD-1 drugs represented a potential competitive threat to its multiple myeloma franchise.\nAnother kind of immunotherapy is based on a patient\u2019s own immune cells, removed and genetically engineered to be efficient killers of a specific type of tumor, and re-introduced to the patient. It\u2019s called chimeric antigen receptor T-cell, or CAR-T, therapy.\nOne of the leaders in the field is Seattle\u2019s Juno Therapeutics, which is pushing forward into human trials with CAR-T therapy and another kind of immunotherapy developed at three institutions: Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York, Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center in Seattle, and Seattle Children\u2019s Hospital.\nJuno has already made a splash, not just with its prodigious fundraising, but with results of a Phase 1 CAR-T trial in which 20 of 22 acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) patients with a particularly intractable form of the disease\u2014in other words, a very grim prognosis\u2014showed complete remission of the disease.\nAt ASH, Memorial Sloan-Kettering researchers will present follow-up data from those patients. That\u2019s important because some of the most promising medical technologies have seemed transformative at first\u2014and CAR-T cell therapy, which Juno and others are pursuing, fits that description\u2014only to run into the frustrating intricacies of biology.\nFrom the abstract, here\u2019s the latest on those 20 patients. As of July, 1, five had relapsed. Three of them were re-treated, and two of them \u201cachieved a second CR\u201d\u2014or complete remission. That leaves three of the 20 with uncertain status, but the overall results remain impressive in a patient population with little hope of remedy. We contacted Juno officials for comment, but they did not respond in time for publication.\nAnother important follow-up with these patients are the data on a known side effect of CAR-T called \u201ccytokine release syndrome,\u201d sometimes called \u2026 Next Page \u00bb\nAACR Review: Biden Fired Up, Incyte Doubles Up, BMS Up And Down",

        "raw_content": "One of the most important problems of caring women \u2014 weight loss. There is an immense number of ways to lose weight: from the most simple and \"free\" to the most sophisticated and worth a lot of money. Here, as they say, it all depends on your capabilities and, most importantly, the motivation for weight loss. How to motivate yourself to lose weight and what you need to do?\nMotivation for weight loss: 5 most important\nThe theme of weight loss will always be relevant. And the motivation for weight loss is its eternal cornerstone. The weight \u2014 value is very unstable and can not stay permanently without overcoming the desire to eat a lot and what you want, and intrinsic motivation for weight loss. Like it or not, but the idea of extra pounds, which prevent to live always revolves around the same reasons. We list the most basic and common of them. \"You're fat!\". Who wants to hear such a phrase, especially from people close? Unfortunately, we are not always surrounded by people considerate and want only the best for us. Even if you did not care much about your figure, and you do not care what others say, this thought will still come back to you, and you will sooner or later think \"And is not it true?\". It turns out, the opinion of others is just the same motivation for weight loss, which women are guided by, sitting on a diet and spending time in the gym. \"I don't fit into my favorite dress!\". If the problem impolite friends and family beat you to the punch, the extra pounds you can easily remind your clothes. If last year you were all at the time, and this zipper on your favorite dress fastens with difficulty or not fastened \u2014 then think, of course, it is necessary. But that's only if you really care about your figure. There are women who don't care and probably are happy women, they care about other things. So, the motivation for weight loss-to get into your favorite dress and not to buy a new one-is also very important and objective. \"I want beautiful photos on the beach!\". Summer, sun, sea... we all want to look at the \"5 plus\", so that men do not tear admiring glances from our forms, so that friends appreciated that the swimsuit looked profitable. What is not the motivation for weight loss? The beach is one of those places where all our flaws are visible to the naked eye. To defile on a warm sand, sparkling smart forms, and not only beautiful tan \u2014 it is necessary to take care of the figure in advance. \"How hard it is to walk and breathe!\" owners of magnificent forms will not lie, extra pounds-is not only an aesthetic problem, but also the cause of various diseases: varicose veins, swelling, shortness of breath, diabetes, heart problems and hormone organs (thyroid, pancreas, ovaries, etc.). health is the most important motivation for weight loss, and no one will argue with this. Usually, doctors since the treatment of such diseases in people with excess weight, the first thing they say to them that is to lose weight. Getting rid of extra pounds you will make your body easier, which means the load on all organs, including the skeleton, it becomes less that the situation changes dramatically. \"The girl, and it is possible to meet you?\". If you do not touch the topic of health, the most important factor affecting the motivation for weight loss is the desire to please men. Alas, no matter what, men meet women \"on clothes\". It is impossible to speak for all, but their share is huge. At the very beginning they evaluate our appearance, and then our \"rich and deep inner world\". And even if they say that they do not care, you need to believe such words cautiously. A woman should always be beautiful and desirable, and this is the most that neither is a good motivation for weight loss.\nMotivation for weight loss: what to do? where to start?\nSo, where should we start? To begin with, choose the reason why you came to the idea of losing weight. Evaluate how much this is really a motivation for weight loss and whether the game is worth the candle? If the incentive was found and the desire to lose weight appeared, ready to make sacrifices and change your daily routine and diet, then firmly decide that you start the process of losing weight not tomorrow and Monday, but right now. If you woke up the next day and got up with the idea that now you will strive for the desired forms, then start to revise your diet, starting with Breakfast. It is best to eat food in the morning, rich in carbohydrates and proteins, and do not forget about vitamins and minerals. Lunch should also be quite abundant to provide themselves with energy for the rest of the day. But dinner is something light and not high-calorie. The last meal should be 4-5 hours before bedtime, so you release your digestive tract from work at night. At night, you can drink a glass of water or yogurt. About the\" main enemies \" of your figure \u2014 sweets, pastries and fats \u2014 should talk separately. No one forces you to give up at all these, though harmful, but, for the most part, such delicious products. You just need to know the measure in their consumption. Motivation for weight loss first of all leads us to thoughts about diets. There is a huge number of diets for every taste and color, the effectiveness and rigor of each of which can advise you only nutritionist. But to diet-not the only measure in the motivation for weight loss. Sport. To lead an active lifestyle and play sports - that's what absolutely all nutritionists advise. The most common \"sport\" for women is a fitness room, and it is not bad. If you are engaged in any kind of sport individually, even better. In our time, the popularity of yoga. Even though it is not active in appearance the process of yoga, calories burned as a result of almost the same as on a treadmill or on a stationary bike. Well, in conclusion, it is necessary to abandon the words \"I can not.\" The motivation for weight loss is called so that throws all your weaknesses and prepares your body for the loss of extra pounds with only your efforts.\nThe motivation for weight loss, as we see, is different, but the desire and the result always depends on you. You should be clearly aware if you really want to have a beautiful figure. Only having the incentive and will to achieve the desired result can realize the motivation for weight loss in life. Dare!",

        "raw_content": "I was one of the many who witnessed the crashing of the plane into the\nWorld Trade Center's South Tower on the morning of September 11, 2001\nafter turning on the television to see reports of the first crash\nI was several months away from the birth of my third child - a precious daughter - on the morning of September 11, 2001. Taking a few quiet minutes before my sleeping children woke up, I was doing some inspirational reading with a book called In Conversation with God . The day's meditation read:\n\"It is in prayer that we learn the mystery of Christ and the wisdom of the Cross. In prayer we perceive, in all their dimensions, the real needs of our brothers and sisters throughout the world; in prayer we find the strength to face whatever lies before us...\" - from a homily by Pope John Paul II, Jan. 13, 1981\nThe peace of my quiet morning did not last long. Soon I learned the true wisdom of those words and found out the reality of that day's trials.\n\"...whatever lies before us\"...\nI learned the \"real needs of [my] brothers and sisters throughout the world\" with shocking clarity when I got a call from my Mom.\n\"Turn on the T.V.,\" she said. \"A plane has crashed into the World Trade Center.\"\noccurred in the Asch Building\n(now the Brown Building)\nat 23-29 Washington Place, NYC\nIt was only last week as I was thinking about another event in New York City's history that I made an interesting connection.\nNinety years before the World Trade Center disaster - on March 25, 1911 - another expectant mother must have been shocked to learn of a horrible tragedy that had just occurred. The Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire took the lives of 146 garment workers - most of them young immigrant women ages 16 to 23. It would rank as the second deadliest disaster in New York City's history (behind the burning of a passenger steamship in 1904) - that is, until the destruction of the World Trade Center eclipsed them both ninety years later.\nLike the World Trade Center tragedy, the Triangle Shirtwaist fire was a catalyst that brought enormous change. In this case, the movement for worker safety and social justice was finally brought to the forefront in New York and throughout the country.\nA quick bit of research led me to a startling realization: at the time of the disaster, this young mother and her family had lived only six short blocks away from the Triangle Shirtwaist factory.\nThe woman? My great-grandmother, Ilona Ujlaky. A new immigrant to America who had arrived only two years earlier. Knowing her, she had said many prayers since she had arrived in the crazy and wonderful world of New York City. More than likely she prayed for these victims and their families, and the struggles of the city in which she and her husband were beginning their new life.\nThe child she was expecting? Her third. A baby girl. My grandmother.\nIn 1911 my great-grandmother and her family (she is pictured here c.1913)\nlived at 415 East Fifth Street on the Lower East Side,\nonly about six blocks from the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire.\nThis article was originally published here at 100 Years in America in 2012. I have reposted it today in honor of the 14th anniversary of the 9/11 tragedy.\nLabels: About the author, Family photos, Ilona (Bence) Ujlaki, Manhattan, Maps, New York, New York City",

In eight different studies, gratitude was shown to reduce feelings of depression (Lambert, N. M., Fincham, F. D., & Stillman, 2012). Research has also revealed that a gratitude practice lessens anxiety and may help lessen the experience of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) (Vernon, Dillon & Steiner, 2009).\nGratitude is catalyzed positively when we choose to reframe what happens to us in positive terms.\nIt improves sleep (Wood, Lloyd & Atkins, 2009) which in turn has a positive impact on mood. And anxiety. And just about everything. It improves overall cardiac health (DuBois, et al., 2012), both indirectly through improving mood and attention to positive health behaviors like fitness and nutrition as well as directly through reduction in inflammation.\nIt strengthens memory (Ramirez, et al., 2014). For elderly adults, practicing gratitude was shown to improve their overall sense of well-being and quality of life. And who wouldn\u2019t want that?\nDuBois, C. M., Beach, S. R., Kashdan, T.

I was the guy on the phone trying to get the Oscar for best extra - for best background performance. ---->>>\nI don't think I'm egotistical as much as I'm taking responsibility for what I'm putting out there. ---->>>\nI've always wanted to call the shots because I would rather fail than not have a chance to figure it out on my own. ---->>>\nEverybody loves a hit. There is nothing as fun as making a cultural splash with a movie. ---->>>\nI'm a very lazy person by nature. I have to be really engaged, and then I go straight from lazy to obsessive. I couldn't study chemistry, but I could memorize all the books for Dungeons and Dragons. It was ridiculous. The trick is to find what I like to do. ---->>>\nIt's great to be able to connect parents with children both emotionally and through humor. I look forward to exploring family entertainment once again and examining the specifics of our day-to-day lives against the backdrop of an extraordinary adventure. ---->>>\nUnfortunately, we are not painters and authors, where we can do something in isolation. We require a lot of money to create what we create. It's almost like being an architect: You can't be an architect and build whatever buildings you want to. ---->>>\nI've cut myself out... I've cut scenes out that I was in and that's when you realize that you've got to make the best movie you can. ---->>>\nI don't 'handle' people. It's so much easier to manipulate actors than to really have an earnest discussion with them. It's very easy to say whatever's going to appease them and then turn around and do whatever you want to do. It's difficult to be forthright with people, because the job does not lend itself to that. ---->>>\nActing is the most fun. I like to do it and it's great that I can still do that, but you know, you don't really have a lot of control over things, so it's real hit or miss. ---->>>\nI find that people... very few people think that what they're doing is bad, and usually the people who think what they're doing is bad it has more to do with guilt. ---->>>\nThankfully, I have a background as an actor, and you learn how to live in that world of not knowing what's going to happen next. ---->>>\nName: Jon Favreau\nBirthplace: Flushing, Queens, New York, U.S.\nJonathan Kolia Favreau (; born October 19, 1966) is an American actor, filmmaker, and comedian.

Those are the spirits of the ancestors of the family. But what has brought them back?\nI'm glad you asked! Everything seems to be leading to a mysterious book, but guess what?\nYou are not the only one looking for it. It's even surprising there's no other unexpected turns.\nThe artwork of this game is just excellent.\nThere's so much attention to detail and all the colors blend together (in a good way, not a blurry one) into these beautiful, though a bit dark, scenes.\nThe gameplay sticks to that of a typical HOPA game, but it is very well polished and enjoyable.\nThere's a great number of hidden object scenes, that come in different forms. The developers really tried to make a variety of tasks for you here.\nThen there are many puzzles as you go through the game. They are different in their challenge level.\nBut that is something expected, right? One other thing to be busy here with is seeds that you need to collect and plant and grow.\nThat will give you some money and, yes, take you a bit off the track, but not totally.\nThe game is really worth of your attention and time if you are into this genre.\nIt does not seem to be something you would regret playing!",

Specifically, in District No. 1, Paras Caracci, local business owner of \u201cSee Jack Play\u201d defeated Dolores Ortiz, a Production Manager and in District No. 4, Margaret Finlay, a six-term Mayor and immediate Past President of the Southern California Association of Governments defeated David Van de Wetering, a Management Assistant.\nThe race also featured two new Districts Nos. 6 and 7 that each had four candidates. In District No. 6, Bryan Urias, a Director from the Upper San Gabriel Municipal Water District came out on top against his other three opponents: Art Rodriguez Jr., a Business Consultant, Cesar Andres Garcia, a Business Person/Entertainer, and Evangelina Sanchez, an Educator. In District No. 7, with close to 50% of the vote, Jocelyn Nunez, a Healthcare Professional defeated Jarrett Stoltzfus, a Transportation Management Professional, Mike Sharble, a Service Director, and Jack Corson Chang, a Business Owner. No candidate filed against incumbent Samuel Kang in District No. 5 allowing the Council to re-appoint him to another four-year term earlier this year in a special meeting.\nBy a little over 3 percent, the Duarte community closely voted to ban the sale and discharge of safe and sane fireworks in the City by approving Measure F, 51.23% to 48.77% with approximately 1500 mail in and provisional ballots yet to be counted which could effect the final official outcome of the measure. Earlier this year, the Duarte City Council had voted to put the measure prohibiting the sale of and discharge of legal fireworks starting in 2019 before the voters on the upcoming November 2018 ballot. Prior to that vote and over the last few years, a growing number of residents had begun to express significant concern regarding the sale and discharge of both legal and illegal fireworks in the City. Safe and sane fireworks sales and usage had been legal in the City since incorporation in 1957.\nThe Los Angeles County Registrar Recorder\u2019s Office does not officially certify election results until December 4, 2018. Per City ordinance, the newly elected Councilmembers and the annual City Council reorganization meeting where a new Mayor will be selected occurs at the first meeting in December or December 11th.

That's why the house needs to be well-ventilated and leached out before such people stay in their rooms again. During such cleaning are used special and ordinary vacuum cleaners with many tips, as well as machines for cleaning floors, various brooms and cloths, allowing you to reach all nooks and crannies of the house.\nThrowing away old clothes\nClothes that are in the home wardrobe sometimes need to be rearranged and suspended. When you put your clothes into the closet after washing, some of them may be crumpled and others fall off the hanger, so you have to constantly place them in other places. Every now and then a review of clothes is carried out, during which old clothes are thrown out, which we have not managed to wash or have long ago walked in, but only translate them to a different place after each wash. Such clothes can also be collected by us in some place, and then packed in bags and displayed in front of the house during the collection of clothing. Similarly with old shoes, which sometimes we have a dozen or so pairs of, and just look at them and throw them away.\nWashing windows before the first frosts",

Nabul / Nebo, known to Romans as Apollo, in Greek as Hermes.\nThe names Nabul and Bel were the official names of Nimrod/Marduk in later periods and were popular in later periods among the ruling classes of Babylon as name elements as in NEBUchadnezzar and BELshazzar.\nOther Names for Tammuz\n1. Osiris (Egyptian, mother (Semiramis) was known as Isis).\n2. Adonis (mother was Venus)\n3. Krishna (mother was Devaki)\n4. Iswara (mother was Isi)\n5. Deoius (mother was Cybele)\n6. Platus (mother was Irene)\n7. Jupiter (mother was Fortuna)\nTammuz was born during the winter solstice on December 25th. His birthday was celebrated throughout Babylonia and surrounding areas. Tammuz died in his 40th year while boar hunting in the spring. In honor of him, the people mourned his death each spring for 40 days, one day for each year of his life. After the forty-day fast, a joyful feast of Ishtar (Easter) took place. At this feast colored eggs were exchanged and eaten as a symbol of the death and resurrection of Tammuz in the spring crops. A feast of ham, symbolizing victory over the boar that killed Tammuz, was enjoyed by all. Finally cakes marked with the letter \u201cT\u201d (to remind everyone of Tammuz) were baked and eaten (Hot cross buns).\nThat the worship of Nimrod and Semiramis is the origin of all the pagan systems on earth is well documented by Alexander Hislop in his book, The Two Babylons.\nFrom \u201cThe Two Babylons\u201d by Alexander Hisop \u2013 Chapter 1\nIn leading proof of the Babylonian character of the Papal Church the first point to which I solicit the reader's attention, is the character of MYSTERY which attaches alike to the modern Roman and the ancient Babylonian systems. The gigantic system of moral corruption and idolatry described in this passage under the emblem of a woman with a \"GOLDEN CUP IN HER HAND\" (Rev 17:4), \"making all nations DRUNK with the wine of her fornication\" (Rev 17:2; 18:3), is divinely called \"MYSTERY, Babylon the Great\" (Rev 17:5). That Paul's \"MYSTERY of iniquity,\" as described in 2 Thessalonians 2:7, has its counterpart in the Church of Rome, no man of candid mind, who has carefully examined the subject, can easily doubt. Such was the impression made by that account on the mind of the great Sir Matthew Hale, no mean judge of evidence, that he used to say, that if the apostolic description were inserted in the public \"Hue and Cry\" any constable in the realm would be warranted in seizing, wherever he found him, the bishop of Rome as the head of that \"MYSTERY of iniquity.\"\nNow, as the system here described is equally characterised by the name of \"MYSTERY,\" it may be presumed that both passages refer to the same system. But the language applied to the New Testament Babylon, as the reader cannot fail to see, naturally leads us back to the Babylon of the ancient world. As the Apocalyptic woman has in her hand A CUP, wherewith she intoxicates the nations, so was it with the Babylon of old. Of that Babylon, while in all its glory, the Lord thus spake, in denouncing its doom by the prophet Jeremiah: \"Babylon hath been a GOLDEN CUP in the Lord's hand, that made all the earth drunken: the nations have drunken of her wine; therefore the nations are mad\" (Jer 51:7).\nWhy this exact similarity of language in regard to the two systems? The natural inference surely is, that the one stands to the other in the relation of type and antitype. Now, as the Babylon of the Apocalypse is characterised by the name of \"MYSTERY,\" so the grand distinguishing feature of the ancient Babylonian system was the Chaldean \"MYSTERIES,\" that formed so essential a part of that system. And to these mysteries, the very language of the Hebrew prophet, symbolical though of course it is, distinctly alludes, when he speaks of Babylon as a \"golden CUP.\" To drink of \"mysterious beverages,\" says Salverte, was indispensable on the part of all who sought initiation in these Mysteries. These \"mysterious beverages\" were composed of \"wine, honey, water, and flour.\" From the ingredients avowedly used, and from the nature of others not avowed, but certainly used, there can be no doubt that they were of an intoxicating nature; and till the aspirants had come under their power, till their understandings had been dimmed, and their passions excited by the medicated draught, they were not duly prepared for what they were either to hear or to see. If it be inquired what was the object and design of these ancient \"Mysteries,\" it will be found that there was a wonderful analogy between them and that \"Mystery of iniquity\" which is embodied in the Church of Rome.\nTheir primary object was to introduce privately, by little and little, under the seal of secrecy and the sanction of an oath, what it would not have been safe all at once and openly to propound. The time at which they were instituted proved that this must have been the case. The Chaldean Mysteries can be traced up to the days of Semiramis, who lived only a few centuries after the flood, and who is known to have impressed upon them the image of her own depraved and polluted mind.\nThat beautiful but abandoned queen of Babylon was not only herself a paragon of unbridled lust and licentiousness, but in the Mysteries which she had a chief hand in forming, she was worshipped as Rhea, the great \"MOTHER\" of the gods, with such atrocious rites as identified her with Venus, the MOTHER of all impurity, and raised the very city where she had reigned to a bad eminence among the nations, as the grand seat at once of idolatry and consecrated prostitution.\nThus was this Chaldean queen a fit and remarkable prototype of the \"Woman\" in the Apocalypse, with the golden cup in her hand, and the name on her forehead, \"Mystery, Babylon the Great, the MOTHER of harlots and abominations of the earth.\" The Apocalyptic emblem of the Harlot woman with the cup in her hand was even embodied in the symbols of idolatry, derived from ancient Babylon, as they were exhibited in Greece; for thus was the Greek Venus originally represented, and it is singular that in our own day, and so far as appears for the first time, the Roman Church has actually taken this very symbol as her own chosen emblem. In 1825, on occasion of the jubilee, Pope Leo XII struck a medal, bearing on the one side his own image, and on the other, that of the Church of Rome symbolised as a \"Woman,\" holding in her left hand a cross, and in her right a CUP, with the legend around her, \"Sedet super universum,\" \"The whole world is her seat.\" Now the period when Semiramis lived, --a period when the patriarchal faith was still fresh in the minds of men, when Shem was still alive to rouse the minds of the faithful to rally around the banner for the truth and cause of God, made it hazardous all at once and publicly to set up such a system as was inaugurated by the Babylonian queen.",

        "title": "Cecilia and Sergei: American Astronomers | Galactic Gazette",
        "raw_content": "Many great minds and personalities have graced this Observatory, but few so illustrious as those of Cecilia Payne-Gaposchkin and her husband Sergei. Together, and separately, they made great impacts on how astronomers see the universe. Cecilia began questioning the make-up of the stars, finding in her graduate research that hydrogen and helium are massively more abundant than iron in the universe. Meanwhile, Sergei counted \u201cover 3 million\u201d stars in the Magellanic clouds, establishing their qualities, distances, and motions. But by far their most important contribution was instilling a distinct enthusiasm into the field, which extended far into the next generation.\nCecilia and Sergei could hardly have come from more different backgrounds, but they shared two important traits: a love for astronomy, and an inability to pursue it under their initial circumstances. Their desire to research motivated them out of stifling intellectual atmospheres and brought them to Harvard, where they helped build a more amenable institutional and social climate, although it often fell short of their ideals. Still, thankful for their opportunities, they became vocal patriots and upheld a strong social sense that reflected their love for astronomy back onto this ideal space that allowed them to flourish. Even as more than Americans, they saw themselves as part of the global community, as part of humanity, with a shared interest in knowledge and research.\nFig. 1: Sergei and Cecilia at a meeting for the American Astronomical Society, held in Mexico City, 1979. Scanned at the American Institute of Physics, Emilio Segre Visual Archives, reproduced with permission.\nCecilia Payne was born into a moderately wealthy family that lived in the English countryside. The only girl with two brothers, Cecilia often found herself either exploring with them or alone in nature. In both cases, she was equally curious about her surroundings. She was tutored alongside her brothers, at an early age, in poetry, music, math, but not much science. Even when Cecilia went away to a girl\u2019s boarding school, she was unsatisfied both with the available science labs and antiquated equipment, and also the inadequate staff to teach her about it all.\nFig 2: The Dyer\u2019s Hand (Cecilia\u2019s autobiography).\nSo she applied to enter Newnham College, Cambridge in 1919, and found herself in a dream world. She was now working in the same laboratories as, and sometimes under the tutelage of great names in physics and atomic science: Ernest Rutherford, J.J. Thompson, Niels Bohr, and Arthur Eddington, whom she considered \u201cthe greatest intellect [she] ever had the privilege to meet\u201d (The Dyer\u2019s Hand, 236). She also found a certain degree of acceptance among the students active in politics: \u201cwe women, of course, had no votes, but that did not prevent us from conducting spirited debates\u2026We declared almost unanimously for labor\u201d (The Dyer\u2019s Hand, 112). The student body was less welcoming in other ways. As one of the few women in the sciences at the college, she repeatedly faced discredit and harassment from her peers, which was never admonished by her professors. The school failed to provide a supportive structure: in one class, an advanced physics course taught by Rutherford, she was required to sit in the front row (alone). Rutherford would often single her out, much to the chagrin of the boys in class.\nIn search of better opportunities to study astronomy at high university levels, she looked towards Cambridge, MA, and a graduate research position at the Harvard College Observatory. At the end of her degree at Newnham, she met the current Observatory director Harlow Shapley, visiting England as a lecturer. Ready to move forward on her career path, she asked Shapley if he should like a new and eager research assistant in America. Shapley responded that he would be delighted: \u201cWhen Miss Cannon retires, you can succeed her!\u201d\nThis answer presages the types of gender discrimination Cecilia would continue to face. While it was rarely as direct or obstructionary as in England, the climate in America still resisted her entry into the professional sciences. Shapely gave her an office in the same building as the Glass Plate collection and the Computer offices, but where no other (male) research astronomers worked. She found difficulty advancing in her professional life: Shapely provided insufficient wages (for projects which he measured in \u201cgirl hours\u201d), and, after almost 30 years of dedicated work, Harvard still expressed reticence to recognize Cecilia\u2019s work with a dignified title and position. In her autobiography, Cecilia laments that, in her youthful vigor, she had been \u201cover optimistic\u201d about America\u2019s freedoms and equalities. But even in the face of this resistance, she remained adamant that no quality could prevent her from working with what she loved. On a questionnaire for the Radcliffe Alumni Association, in response to the questions \u201cCan a woman successfully carry on a career and marriage simultaneously? Can she if she has children? What is the most important forward movement in which women can be of service?,\u201d she answers: \u201c??? Same as for men.\u201d\nFig. 3: Stellar Atmospheres (Cecilia\u2019s PhD Thesis).\nPerhaps the most frustrating moment in Cecilia\u2019s career came at the end of her graduate research at Harvard, when she was finishing her thesis. Written in a \u201csix week ecstasy,\u201d and later hailed as \u201cthe greatest PhD thesis even written in astronomy,\u201d Stellar Atmospheres was published as the first in the series Harvard Observatory Monographs in 1925. It made an observation that hydrogen and helium are much more massively abundant in the universe than previously assumed. This ran contrary to the current paradigm: that all stellar objects were primarily iron at core, like Earth, the Moon, and the other nearby rocky bodies. The lead thinker in this school, Henry Norris Russell, a senior astronomer at Princeton and close colleague of Shapley, resisted her conclusions, encouraging her to be more conservative and cautious about the implications of her observations. In the end, Cecilia published in her thesis that \u201cthe outstanding discrepancies between the astrophysical and terrestrial abundances are displayed for hydrogen and helium. The enormous abundance derived for these elements in the stellar atmosphere is almost certainly not real.\u201d (Stellar Atmospheres, 188).\nOf course, we know now that it is actually very real, and that her observations pointed towards a truth about the physical universe, that the stars are made of hydrogen and helium gases. In fact, Russell published a paper four years later (Russell 1929) in which he endorsed Cecilia\u2019s observations, and extended the conclusion to the physical principles of the universe. What caused such an about-face? Some attribute it to misogyny and an initial distrust of Cecilia\u2019s work until he could verify it himself; but others consider the dynamics of professional astronomy research at the time. David Devorkin argues that Russell was simply cautioning a young student from making brash jumps, about being skeptical of their methods, data, and about trusting the authorities above. Even after he had confirmed it through his own observation, it was Russell\u2019s long-earned professional clout and central status in North American astronomy that gave him the voice to challenge the current paradigm.\nAt any rate, Cecilia held complicated feelings about this ordeal. On the one hand, she always believed that science was a collaborative project: she had done nothing notable but \u201cfurnish an observational background\u201d to the continuously developing set of theories (The Dyer\u2019s Hand, 160). If it had not been her, someone else would have noticed and the whole world would be just as well off (paraphrased quote from Cecilia in Gingerich 2001). On the other hand, she felt slighted, and a bit bitter. She was never fond of Russell, beyond professional respect. In a letter to a friend, Charlotte Moore Sitterly, she confessed the desire she always had to \u201cchallenge him to a reciting competition. I think I could have matched him \u2014 in French, German, Latin and Greek poetry, I think I could have beaten him.\u201d\nNevertheless, in spite of all this friction, Cecilia still enjoyed her work in astronomy. She found a close friend and ally in Frances Woodworth Wright, a computer hired at the Observatory in the late 1920\u2019s and early 30\u2019s, and an astronomer who would go on to teach students and sailors the techniques of celestial navigation. Frances made Cecilia quite the explorer. They took a few road trips across the US, ostensibly to visit the western American observatories, but also to experience the whole of the United States. They had initially planned to sleep in a different state every night, but once they realized that would mean driving at the expense of seeing, they slowed down and climbed the mountains\nFig. 4: Cecilia (left) and Frances relaxing on a rock, 1930s. From the collections of Sara Schechner and Ken Launie.\nThrough all this, Cecilia remained keenly aware of the space and \u201csociety that had given [her] the opportunity to live the life and follow the profession that [she] so much desired. \u2026 I can truly say: \u2018I am happy in the country of my adoption, I work in it and for it\u2019\u201d (The Dyer\u2019s Hand, 131).\nMeanwhile, another young child, halfway across the world had dreams of astronomy. Whereas Cecilia came from the English middle-class, Sergei Gaposchkin grew up in the Russian peasantry. Living in a small house on the Crimean coast of the Baltic Sea, Sergei spent his nights fishing and watching the stars, thinking of how he could build his life towards them. This was something his mother found difficult to understand: \u201cWhat is Astronomy? Is it some kind of fish you have found in the sea? I would like to know the recipe for this kind of fish\u201d (The Divine Scramble, 537).\nFig. 5: Cecilia and Sergei horsing around, 1930s. From the collections of Sara Schechner and Ken Launie.\nHis youth was interrupted by the slew of war, revolutions, counter-revolutions, and corruption that defined eastern Europe in the 1910s and 1920s. He was thrown in between the Red Army, the White Army, the working class forces in Turkey, Slovakia, and Poland until he finally ended up in Berlin, where he earned two PhDs in Literature and Astronomy. But by 1932, he found himself again desperate to escape Hitler and the surge of German nationalism. He met Cecilia at an astronomical conference that year, and proposed an arrangement: he could work with her at Harvard, while their marriage could keep him in the US.\nFig. 6: The Divine Scramble and Young Forever (Sergei\u2019s autobiography).\nSergei was an interesting character which is well-reflected in his autobiography: 3 volumes, over 3000 pages, part biography, part sketchbook, part world history textbook, a narrative of science and civilization told with \u201cunadulterated realism\u201d, part epic poem about modern astrophysics and the Space Race, and part illustrated stellar catalogue (The Divine Scramble, 318). He speaks with lengthy pride about his family, his travels, the people he has met, and the work he has accomplished. He also fills the margins with his sketches of people, places, stars, and scenes from his memory. All of this combines into a multi-media narrative which seemed like, to quote the Boston Globe, \u201ca weird mixture of Homer\u2019s Odyssey, Robinson Crusoe, with a little of America, America thrown in.\u201d It was self-published, and distributed to close friends. To those even closer, including Frances Woodworth Wright, Sergei produced an abbreviated fourth volume titled Young Forever, with only 40 pages of photographs, color sketches, and narrative aphorisms (Fig 15, Title Card).\nFig 7a: One of Sergei\u2019s sketches from The Divine Scramble.\nFig 7b: A sketch from Sergei\u2019s autobio, which illustrates his famous \u201cApollo-Hercules\u201d workout regimen.\nAmong the many diverse commentaries than run through his autobiography, one of the most salient is a national pride. Sergei loved America because, in America, he saw an orientation of humanity as a whole moving toward a unified goal of scientific progress, triumphing over national and political squabbles that drive humans against each other. He was inspired by the Apollo moon landings \u2014 \u201cthe taking possession of the Moon in the name of Humanity, the greatest American contribution to mankind\u2019s history!\u201d (The Divine Scramble, 78) \u2013, and he vocally praised President Nixon for his detente policies with China (Sergei was a little more confused about how to process the Watergate scandal). However real this universal/American humanism, Sergei always experienced the liberal freedoms of the US against the memories of war, oppression, forced migration, and discrimination he lived through in eastern Europe. What he saw in the US, and what he found at Harvard, was the means, ability, and opportunity to pursue his dreams in astronomy; it was his \u201cProvidential Contact\u201d (The Divine Scramble, 537).\nFig 8: Cecilia and Sergei\u2019s logbooks (from Project PHaEDRA).\nFig 9: Payne-Gaposchkin publications from the Wolbach Library holdings.\nTogether in Cambridge, Cecilia and Sergei formed a powerhouse that both blazed through astronomical research, and contributed to the life, wellness, and knowledge of their community. They spent most of their lives together working. Their logbooks contain drafts of charts, graphs, variable measurements, and lists of stars thousands of entries long. All of this work culminated in a number of publications, still in Wolbach\u2019s collections and still relevant to the field today. The most recent edition of Introduction to Astronomy was even revised by their daughter, Katherine Haramundanis. Of course, the labor of counting stars and crunching numbers was tedious so Sergei found respite in doodling his wife on his notebooks.\nSergei was always eager to find moments to integrate artistry into his astronomy. Beyond the abstract and expressionist starscapes that he includes in his autobiography (Fig. 10, below), he believed that one inquisitive and one imaginative eye would easily lead to breakthroughs in science. While in Australia surveying the Magellanic clouds, he spent his quiet moments sketching a full picture of the Milky Way across the night sky. Sergei proudly boasted that this was the first full visual representation of the Milky Way ever created:\n\u201cIf the astronomers in the last century had possessed, in the world of stars, an artistic genius equal to their intellectual grandeur, the realization of the fact that the dramatic multitude of stars is located not in the vicinity of the Sun, but in the direction of Sagittarius-Scorpius, would have dawned not in the twentieth century but in the nineteenth. A visual representation of the whole Milky Way reveals this at once.\u201d (Gaposchkin 1960)\nFig 11: Sergei\u2019s full Map of the Milky Way (from Gaposchkin 1960).\nFig 12: Sergei\u2019s reproduction of Blake\u2019s Ancient of Days. From Project PHaEDRA.\nSergei\u2019s artistic tendencies extended into the classics as well, something which Cecilia appreciated. A few weeks before meeting Sergei, she had made a trip to Soviet Russia, where soldiers searched her belongings and puzzled over a postcard she had with an image of William Blake\u2019s Ancient of Days. Later, after she met Sergei for the first time in Germany, she shared the story and was impressed by his familiarity with the Romantics. At some later point, he replicated that image and gave it to Cecilia, who used it as a bookmark in one of her logbooks. But that\u2019s for the best, because we discovered it tucked away when working on our Project PHaEDRA, and can now preserve it alongside the rest of his and her works.\nCecilia\u2019s artistry mostly fell outside of her astronomy, but she always managed to know a relevant quote or classical verse to accompany each chapter of her monographs. She was inclined towards music \u2014 she had studied under Gustav Holst in England. She was also skilled with a needle. In 1975, after many decades of researching supernovae, a colleague asked Cecilia to complete a needlepoint pattern he had made from an image of the Cassiopeia A supernova remnant that appeared on the cover of Scientific American in December of that year. Completed in a few weeks, the final needlepoint is a vibrant and colorful representation of the sort of world Cecilia had been working in: grainy and ill-defined, but limitless with a suited imagination.\nFig 13a: Needlepoint of Cas-A SR, Cecilia Payne-Gaposchkin, 1976 (From Harvard University Archives).\nFig 13b: Needlepoint of Cas-A SR, Detail, Cecilia Payne-Gaposchkin, 1976 (From Harvard University Archives).\nBut even with such varied and intense professional and artistic pursuits, Cecilia and Sergei still maintained a civic mindset that directed their energy towards the human good. During World War II, in the spirit of the war effort, they bought a farm in western Massachusetts to produce eggs to feed the armies. Sergei later boasted that they \u201cwon WWII with 1000 eggs weekly!\u201d Cecilia also wanted to use the farm as a space to provide housing and work for European refugees. However, she found no applicants for any of her postings, and the two had to manage the whole operation alone. After the war, they traded the land for property closer to Boston, but still where they could maintain a sprawling garden. When the team at the Observatory first heard about the USSR\u2019s launch of Sputnik, Cecilia and Sergei immediately opened up their country home for all to bring their telescopes and look for the satellite away from the metropolitan light pollution.\nFig 14: Sergei in his garden. Sergei was notorious for his love of sunbathing. He comments that, through all his travels, the one thing that every nation shares is that \u201cthey don\u2019t like my shorts.\u201d From Young Forever.\nAs individuals with a \u201cstrong social sense,\u201d Cecilia and Sergei maintained a patriotism fired by their love for astronomy. Had they not made the Atlantic journey, neither could have accessed the spaces or tools required to think big about the universe. Whether it was flight from social discrimination and institutional repression, or the intellectually stifling atmosphere of fascist nationalism, they found America to be a liberating space where they could act with more agency even if social pressures remained. Cecilia, in her autobiography, reflects on the problems she recognized in the 1920s and 1930s, which mostly related to the treatment and acceptance of Black and Jewish Americans as part of the nation\u2019s social fabric. Many of these issues still exist today in some form, especially towards immigrants. It is most salient from the story of Cecilia and Sergei to realize that, given the opportunity, passionate people thrive in pursuit of their goals. And to many in the world, the US appears as that land of opportunity.\nFig 15: A seal for Cecilia and Sergei, designed and colored by Sergei. From Young Forever.\nThis is not to say that Cecilia or Sergei considered themselves American nationals. They were simply grateful for the ability to pursue astronomy, to research and publish new information, and educate the world about it. They saw themselves as global citizens, as part of humanity, aimed towards the goal of scientific knowledge and its benefits for all.\nFig 10: Illustrations of the star Nova Hercules, from The Divine Scramble.\nCollections of Cecilia Payne- and Sergei Gaposchkin.

        "raw_content": "Another New Year's Eve\nIt's another New Year's Eve, the end of another year. It's also almost the start of a new year.\nTonight we had Chinese takeaways for dinner. No reason, it was just easy. The photo above is of our usual place. It may not look like much, but it's the best Chinese we've yet found in Auckland. And it was good, as always.\nWe also watched the newest \"Muppet Movie\". We all sang along with \"Rainbow Connection\". Bliss.\nAs darkness fell, people in the neighbourhood started letting off fireworks\u2014as they have every night for the past couple weeks. Nice (that's sarcasm, by the way).\nThe evening turned oddly cool for a summer evening, and we put on jumpers and sweatshirts and the like. This is weird, but it's been a weird summer so far.\nWe moved inside\u2014too cold outside. The most recent Transformers movie is on Sky Movies now. It'll do. Wines have been had, after all.\nAnd still we have time to kill.\nWell, some of us did. Some went off to bed after 11\u2014amateurs!\u2014and I waited with the youngest niece. She's a trooper. And off I go now, to wait for the new year, some 15 minutes away.\nGood night\u2014and Happy New Year!\nFinal 2012 Internet Wading\nEvery year, plenty of stuff doesn\u2019t make it into this blog, and that\u2019s why I do Internet Wading posts\u2014for the \u201cbest of the rest\u201d stuff. I don\u2019t do these posts as often as I should. Roger Green does his \"Ramblin\u2019 with Roger\" posts regularly (like his latest), and that\u2019s where I got the idea\u2014but I\u2019m not nearly as organised (in many ways, actually\u2026).\nNevertheless, I wanted to share a few things that just didn\u2019t make it into a post this year, for whatever reason.\nFirst up, the federal budget is nothing like a family\u2019s budget. Back in February, FAIR (Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting) took apart a story from ABC News (USA) that made this analogy. This is particularly relevant now with all the talk about the \u201cfiscal cliff\u201d, because it shows how the analogy\u2014and conservatives\u2014are wrong.\nSticking with politics, a couple recent tidbits about the last election: Steve Singiser grades the pollsters on Daily Kos and finds\u2014surprise!\u2014the greater their Republican bias, the less accurate they were. Worst was Rasmussen, which many people already knew, and it\u2019s why I don\u2019t quote them on this blog. Among the most satisfying consequences from the election, the latest Nielsen ratings show that Fox Noise \u201ccommentator\u201d Sean Hannity has lost half his audience since President Obama\u2019s re-election. Apparently it has something to do with Hannity constantly claiming that President Obama would lose in a landslide. Clearly, being spectacularly wrong has consequences.\nOn a very recent issue, Jeff Greenwald asks on The Guardian site, \u201cWho paid for the Log Cabin Republicans' anti-Hagel New York Times ad?\u201d. He concludes that the gay Republican group is being used: \u201cGay advocates are the exploited tools in this effort. We should at least have some transparency about that fact.\u201d Interesting, though I have no idea if he\u2019s right.\nSpeaking of gay politics, I can\u2019t believe that I didn\u2019t blog about the speech actress Sally Field gave at HRC's 16th Annual National Dinner. She explained why she loves and supports her gay son, Samuel Greisman, and why she\u2019s an advocate for LGBT people. It was a moving speech and I could have sworn I\u2019d posted it here.\nFinally, something not about politics at all: It\u2019s about an airplane. Many years ago, Boeing recruited people to provide input into the design\u2014and naming\u2014of their new plane, which ultimately was dubbed The Dreamliner. I was part of their \u201cWorld Design Team\u201d, providing some feedback (for the record, I advocated for more leg room). Last month, they sent out a \u201cDreampass\u201d, allowing people to view videos of take off and landing from the cockpit, as well as 360 views of the fuselage, engines and wings. I thought it was pretty cool\u2014but, as part of the World Design Team, I suppose I would.\nAnd that\u2019s all the wading that fits in this year. More\u2014and more often, I hope\u2014next year. Happy New Year\u2014and Happy Internet Wading!\nLabels: Gay Rights, Gay Youth, Good News, Internet Stuff, Internet Wading, LGBT, Politics (International), Travel, US 2012 Elections, US Politics\nArthur answers\nLast week, I opened up this blog to reader questions. Technically, this isn\u2019t new, of course, because I\u2019ve answered questions both on this blog and, especially, on my podcast. Still, I haven\u2019t used a post to directly ask for questions, so it was new in that sense.\nI received two questions, which pleasantly surprised me. In this post, I answer them. The first question comes from jianfei shao:\n\"We see societies all over the world evolving constantly. Do you have an image of an ideal society? What is it like? (just a short general idea I guess). From your experiences, is New Zealand anywhere closer to that ideal than US as a country? If so by how much?\"\nThanks! That\u2019s actually a question I\u2019ve written about only in parts, so it\u2019s nice to have a chance to kind of link it all together.\nMy image of an ideal society is one that adheres to the principles contained in the United Nations\u2019 Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UNUDHR), and all true democracies do, at least to some extent. But that doesn\u2019t go far enough for me.\nChief among the things I think must be there for an ideal society is that LGBT people are treated as full and equal citizens. That means, among other things, that they have the same rights and legal protections as all other citizens, including the right to marry, and they don\u2019t face official or cultural oppression or violence because of who they are.\nAlso, I don\u2019t think Article 19 of the UNUDHR goes far enough because freedom from religion is every bit as important as freedom of religion: No person\u2014including the non-religious\u2014should ever be oppressed by a religion they do not share, or forced to comply with religious edicts. Secularism is the only acceptable religious stance for a government: Government should not interfere in religion and religion should not interfere in Government.\nOne final thing my ideal society should have is proportional representation. This is the best and fairest way to achieve truly representative democratic government. Non-proportional systems inevitably lead to the least popular parties ruling government at least some of the time.\nSo, because of those three additions, New Zealand is closer to my ideal than is the USA, and here\u2019s why:\nLGBT issues \u2013 New Zealand forbids discrimination against LGBT people nationally, the US doesn\u2019t; NZ recognises same-gender partners for immigration, the US doesn\u2019t; NZ is poised to enact marriage equality nationwide, and has civil unions at the moment, the US doesn\u2019t.\nReligious issues \u2013 New Zealand is a mostly secular state, even though a clear majority call themselves Christian. Still, more than a third say they have no religion, which is a much higher percentage than in the US. While New Zealanders are relaxed about religion generally, they do not like religious people interfering in politics, while in the US, far right religionists (Christians in particular) control the Republican Party and the conservative \u201cmovement\u201d generally, placing their particular religious dogma at the centre of conservative politics. That\u2019s simply not possible in New Zealand.\nFinally, Proportional representation \u2013 New Zealand has the MMP electoral system, which, though certainly not perfect, is far fairer than the US system. For example, our current Parliament pretty closely matches the results of our last election, but in the US, Democrats running for the US House of Representatives last month received over a million votes more than the Republicans, and Democrats should be in control of the US House. The reason they aren\u2019t is a combination of a bad electoral system and gerrymandering, which is a topic on its own.\nI should add that based on all this, while New Zealand is closer to my ideal than any other country I\u2019m aware of, Canada is second (its electoral system lets it down, and it has far too many religious conservatives interfering in politics). Australia is about the same as the US because of its strong rightwing religious political interference and its lack of marriage equality or even civil unions, and also because its electoral system isn't as proportional as New Zealand's. The UK is in that same grouping, too, because of the lack of full marriage equality and its unrepresentative electoral system.\nThere you have it: Human rights and human dignity are at the core of my perception of an ideal society, and New Zealand is closer to that ideal than any other country I\u2019m aware of.\nNext up, Roger Green asked:\n\"Tell of a time when you were working very hard on preparing for a project/event, but which, at the last minute, you were unable to finish because you got sick, or lost, at the last minute. (It's happened to me.)\"\nFascinating question, Roger\u2014and one I really had to think about!\nJust this month, I was nearly unable to complete a work project for the first time ever because of some things in my personal life, but I pulled it out at the last minute. When I first thought about the question, that was what popped into my head. But it was an \u201calmost\u201d thing.\nThe truth is, I can\u2019t think of anything that matches your question precisely. To be sure, some projects have been somewhat similar\u2014chiefly podcast episodes that didn\u2019t happen, our trip to Pride 48 in Las Vegas last year that we had to cancel, even a video project I abandoned\u2014but none of them quite match your question.\nCloser is this: Back in 1987, while I was still an activist, I was part of a team planning a statewide conference for our fellow activists, following on from a successful similar one the year before. We spent months in planning meetings, securing a venue, booking guest speakers, organising workshops and publicising it. At very near the last minute, we had to cancel it due to lack of registrations. It was profoundly disappointing and demoralising. But the fault was in our stars, not ourselves.\nThe only time that I got sick and couldn\u2019t do something was when I got an inner ear infection and was too sick to fill out my ballot papers for the local government elections (they\u2019re done by post), so I missed the deadline and didn\u2019t vote (the only time in my life that I knowingly didn\u2019t vote).\nSo, I don\u2019t have anything that precisely matches the question, which means I\u2019ve been very, very lucky!\nThanks, both of you, for the questions. Feel free to ask follow-up questions if you want to\u2014that goes for anyone, actually.\nI may even do this again some time!\nLabels: AmeriNZ, Ask Arthur, Gay Rights, LGBT, Marriage Equality, NZ Marriage Equality, Politics (general), Politics (International), US 2012 Elections, US Politics\nMom\u2019s treasure\nA rainbow sealed it. It wasn\u2019t a sign or portent, nor anything remotely spiritual, just a rainbow. And it cleared things up.\nToday my mother would have been 96. She\u2019s been dead for more than three decades, and I\u2019ve lived more of my life without her than with her, yet every year at this time I remember her birthday, and her.\nShe died when I was in (very) early adulthood, too early for me to learn about what that phase of my life would be like. Because my father died some seven months earlier, there was no one left to answer my questions, to warn me of pitfalls or offer advice (solicited or not), nor, to be honest, to catch me when I stumbled. And I did.\nYet I found my way, helped by some amazing people (and some of them are now gone, too). From each I learned something that built on what I learned from my parents, my mother in particular. All of that led me to where I am now (literally and figuratively).\nAnd yet today, as I was thinking about my mother\u2019s birthday, and the impending new year, I wondered to myself at one point, \u201cwould she be proud of me?\u201d It was a silly thought, because the only logical answer is \u201cof course!\u201d She was proud of me when she was alive, and I\u2019m at least as good a person now as I was then (better, I like to think).\nAnd in the years since she died, there have been plenty of things I\u2019ve done or accomplished that I knew would make my parents proud. I was never one of those kids who spent their lives trying to win approval from their parents, and definitely not one who never got that approval. My parents made it clear I always had their support, approval and love. They were proud of me.\nSo the question that popped into my head today was actually more about what they\u2019d think of what I\u2019ve accomplished so far in my life. Yes, of course they\u2019d be proud. But I also thought, in the kind of existential/temporal conflict kind of way that I seem to do, them being here to be able to be proud of me would mean that my life would be completely different\u2014it would change everything, and I probably wouldn\u2019t have had anywhere near the life I\u2019ve had. Yeah, I laugh at myself for thinking like that, too.\nThis evening Nigel and I took the dogs down to the habour for a walk. It was nice. As we drove home, the rain started to spit, and when we got to the top of our drive, there was a rainbow with one end seeming to disappear behind the house right in front of ours\u2014the rainbow\u2019s end seemed to be our house!\nNo, we didn\u2019t find a pot of gold when we got here, but maybe I found something else. The treasure my parents, my mother in particular, gave me all those years ago is still keeping me. And I\u2019ve found the end of my rainbow, right where I live. That\u2019s even better than a pot of gold.\nThanks, mom. And Happy Birthday.\nThe photo above shows the rainbow this evening, which ended at our house (you can\u2019t see our house in this photo because it\u2019s behind, and somewhat downhill from, our neighbour\u2019s house.\nMy own funny numbers\nAfter the past two days spent lambasting our friends on the radical right for their use of funny numbers, I have one more bunch of funny numbers to expose: My own.\nLike nearly every site on the web, I collect aggregate data about visitors to this blog. I don\u2019t collect any personal information whatsoever, of course, just how people got here, what they read, how long they were here, those sorts of things.\nThe idea is this data it helps me to know what \u201cworks\u201d and what doesn\u2019t. I don\u2019t let that information dictate what I write about, but it does show me what my strongest subjects are, if by \u201cstrongest\u201d I mean \u201cmost viewed\u201d. When I\u2019m undecided about what to write about, I\u2019ll sometimes go with my \u201cstrengths\u201d and prioritise posts on those subjects. Not always, but sometimes.\nBlogger has pretty much always counted the number of pageviews (that is, the number of times a page is accessed) from visitors of the blogs it hosts, and as Blogger has become more tightly integrated with Google, that information has become easier to see\u2014and use. I recently enabled the widget that shows the total number of pageviews. I did so in the interest of being transparent, and so new readers will know I have some accumulated activity on this blog.\nHowever, I had some reservations about posting this information, as shown by this Facebook exchange between Roger Green and me back when I hit 150,000 pageviews:\nRoger: Yeah, but 143,000 of them are me.\nMe: No, Roger, you moved the decimal point. You're 14,300 of them. 99% of the rest are spambots.\nAnd that\u2019s actually the core of the issue: Spambots account for a lot of those page views. Accidental and brief visits, like people who arrive from a Google search, also account for a large number of pageviews for many sites. This is why people talk about \u201cvisitors\u201d rather than \u201creaders\u201d: Many pageviews are not from people who actually read anything.\nSo, to sort of balance things, I also enabled public stats on the StatCounter widget that\u2019s been on this blog since not long after I started it. Its pageview counts have always lagged behind the \u201cofficial\u201d count, partly because I started it counting later, and also because it seems to track data more cautiously.\nI figure that the real number of visitors lies somewhere between the two totals, but I don\u2019t know where. I also don\u2019t have any good data about how many visitors are readers. The point for me is that it tells me I have at least SOME real readers, and what they appear to like best.\nBut that\u2019s not the truth I wanted to expose. Actually, the real reason the widgets are there is that I like watching the big numbers get bigger. Even though I know that many of them aren\u2019t \u201creal\u201d pageviews, and even though the legitimate pageviews of big sites dwarf my dubious numbers, I still like seeing them. Very funny numbers, indeed.\nSpinning is not winning\nThe same far right religious political group I wrote about yesterday is still trying to spin poll results to try and make it look like they\u2019re not losing. I\u2019m beginning to feel embarrassed for them and their obvious desperation.\nYesterday, at the same time that I was writing my post about how \u201cProtect [sic] Marriage NZ\u201d was using its site to promote phoney numbers as if they were real, they were posting a new item basically doing the same thing. In yesterday\u2019s post I mentioned how they used Twitter to promote a NZ Herald story that showed older New Zealanders (65+) are the only ones who oppose marriage equality, because that they were \u201cdesperate for any good polling news, and this is all [they\u2019ve] got.\u201d That same day they posted a new item to their site (but not promoted on Twitter) under the screaming headline, \u201cLatest poll shows even split for/against gay marriage!\u201d\nOnly, it doesn\u2019t. Of course.\nWhat the poll of 613 readers of Wellington\u2019s Dominion Post newspaper said was that 35% favoured marriage equality and 35% opposed it. That seems like a split, but wait\u2014what\u2019s this? That only adds up to 70%\u2014what about the other 30%?!\nIt turns out that \u201cJust under a quarter described themselves as \u2018neutral\u2019 on the subject, while a further 6 per cent had no opinion.\u201d We\u2019ve been here before, of course, when the extremists argued that marriage equality was losing support because respondents were given the option of answering that they \u201cdid not mind one way or the other\u201d. I pointed out that the time that IF those people were opposed, they would have said so (and, in fact, outright opposition was down). Those poll results actually showed that nothing had changed.\nIt\u2019s a similar story with the DomPo poll: 30% of respondents could have said they opposed marriage equality but did not. Instead, they chose a response to indicate that they\u2019re neutral or \u201cdon\u2019t care\u201d\u2014in other words, they \u201cdid not mind one way or the other\u201d.\nThe DomPo doesn\u2019t give us enough information about the poll to know for sure, but it\u2019s certainly possible that some of that 30% aren\u2019t supporters of marriage equality\u2014but that doesn\u2019t automatically mean they\u2019re opposed: Neutral means they\u2019re not taking a stand by choice.\nThe fact is, polls have consistently shown that opposition to marriage equality is roughly a third of New Zealanders, with the vast majority either supporting it or \u201cdid not mind one way or the other\u201d. It\u2019s nothing but spin to say that an opposition of a mere 35% amounts to a \u201csplit\u201d among New Zealanders.\nBut this assertion is something that\u2019s not the fault of the religious extremists alone. The DomPo headlined its article \u201cGay marriage debate likely to split families\u201d, despite failing to provide any evidence to support that claim. The lede says, \u201cThe Labour MP behind the bid to legalise gay marriage expects the debate to divide grandparents and grandchildren.\u201d No, she never said that in the article, only that it had the potential to split families. \u201cLikely\u201d and \u201cpotential\u201d are not the same thing.\nMy argument with the wording is that the entire article was set-up with a conservative bias, since the assertions were not supported by the article or the poll it reported on. Everything was conjecture from people commenting on the fact that polls show that older people were more likely to be opposed to marriage equality, but no evidence whatsoever was presented to show that people would be talking about this issue at all, let alone splitting families over it. It was lazy journalism.\nNone of which lets the religious extremists off the hook for deliberately spinning the poll results to try and pretend they say something they don\u2019t. What our opponents have not yet learned is a simple truth: Spinning is not winning.\nLabels: Gay Rights, LGBT, Marriage Equality, Media, NZ Marriage Equality, NZ News, NZ Politics\nNumbers and real truth\nNZ\u2019s extremist religious right just can\u2019t stop using phoney numbers to fight marriage equality. That\u2019s because the numbers aren\u2019t on their side\u2014they\u2019ve lost the fight and they know it.\nThe spokesperson for the radical right \u201cChristian\u201d \u201cgroup\u201d \u201cProtect [sic] Marriage NZ\u201d, Bob McCoskrie, posted to their blog earlier this month a piece he titled \u201cSupport for redefining marriage continues slide in polls\u201d (my long-standing policy is that I don\u2019t link to far right sites, so to read it yourself, you\u2019ll have to copy and paste this link: http://bit.ly/W9Ecg8). There\u2019s not even a grain of truth in that headline.\nHis post\u2019s headline referred to a screengrab of a \u201cpoll\u201d, which he credited as \u201cFrom the TVNZ website\u201d (he provided no link for verification). The \u201cpoll\u201d was, in fact, an online poll that many sites\u2014including this blog\u2014have used. They have absolutely no scientific validity whatsoever.\nBob wasn\u2019t done, however, and also posted a screengrab of an online \u201cpoll\u201d from Yahoo! News. Bob again provided no link, except to a six-month old post on his own blog. Like the \u201cpoll\u201d on the TVNZ site, it has no scientific credibility whatsoever.\nHe also posted yet another online poll, this one from \u201cNZ Herald in August\u201d (yet again, he provided no link to the source). Like the \u201cpoll\u201d on the TVNZ site and the Yahoo! News article, the Herald \u201cpoll\u201d has no scientific credibility whatsoever.\nThis has been a trend among our opponents on the right: Using online polls as if they\u2019re real polls. Personally, I would never refer to such polls unless it was to point out how utterly irrelevant they are, or to point out some thing interesting about it, like when the usually conservative NZ Herald\u2019s online \u201cpolls\u201d produce results that are not conservative, as was the case with that \u201cpoll\u201d Bob posted.\nThe reason these polls are irrelevant is because of what\u2019s called \u201cself-selection bias\u201d, which skews results and makes them unrepresentative, and that makes the \u201cpoll\u201d useless for anything other than entertainment. Social scientists call such polls, appropriately, SLOP, which is derived from \u201cself-selecting opinion polls\u201d. But don\u2019t take my word for it: Here\u2019s a Google search of academic articles about the problem of self-selection bias.\nBob actually did refer to one legitimate poll\u2014but it\u2019s from September, and the results of that poll didn\u2019t say anything close to what he claimed they did. I discussed this at the time (and yes, that\u2019s a link to a three-month old post on this blog, but it has links to the poll in question, as well as other polling data, and the reasons why Bob is wrong in what he says about that poll\u2019s results).\nAs I\u2019ve made clear many times, I\u2019m a stickler for accuracy in political debate, and in this case, that means using real polls numbers accurately, and avoiding quoting rubbish non-polls from a website. Bob is not in any way unique in using phoney numbers to try and make his case\u2014I\u2019ve seen plenty of people, both left and right, do the same. But because he\u2019s fighting against me and my right to be a full and equal citizen, you can bet I\u2019m going to call him on it\u2014and anyone else doing it.\nLabels: Gay Rights, LGBT, Life in NZ, Marriage Equality, Media, NZ Marriage Equality, NZ Politics\nMarriage Equality: 2012 in Review\n2012 was certainly a HUGE year in the battle for marriage equality! The video above is the annual review from Matt Baume, now of the American Foundation for Equal Rights. The video description says:\n\u201cHere we are at the end of 2012, and after a year of amazing progress we're closer than ever to full federal marriage equality. Think about where we were a year ago with Prop 8, with DOMA, with marriage laws from state to state. So much has happened since then. So let's do a quick year-in-review to get you caught up with the progress we made in 2012, and where we're going to focus in 2013, including which states are the most likely to make headlines in the coming year.\u201d\nI said about last year\u2019s video:\nThat was certainly correct, because 2012 was a huge year for marriage equality\u2014and this year he didn\u2019t even mention overseas developments, like marriage equality clearing its first hurdle in New Zealand.\nThere will be more good news next year\u2014more victories, more progress. The trend is now completely obvious for anyone who bothers to look and pay attention.\nAll of which is very good news, indeed.\nLabels: Gay Rights, Good News, LGBT, Marriage Equality, NZ Marriage Equality, NZ Politics, US Politics\nI saw the above graphic all over the Internet recently, but didn\u2019t have time to comment on it at the time. I think it\u2019s especially good at showing the core difference between liberals and conservatives.\nThere\u2019s been an appalling increase in selfishness among those on the right. We see it most clearly in their Ayn Rand inspired rhetoric about \u201cmakers and takers\u201d, that \u201ctaxes are theft\u201d and similar greed-based talk about how all people should be on their own.\nThe essential philosophical flaw in this rightwing view is that no one is an island\u2014we all depend on each other for our survival, no matter how advanced the society or how high our economic status. This is true even for rich conservatives: A business cannot function without customers, and customers cannot be customers without money. It is in business\u2019 self-interest for their customers to have enough money to be customers. Even Henry Ford knew that.\nHowever, conservatives think that liberals want to just give rich people\u2019s money to the poor to sit around and do nothing. There\u2019s no truth to that at all. Instead, liberals want to reduce harm, such as bad health, poor education and bad housing, and that takes money.\nLiberals also want to increase fairness. Most people accept that allowing discrimination against people solely because of their race or gender, among other things, is inherently unfair, and we accept the need for laws to prevent discrimination.\nConservatives argue that as long as everyone has the same\u2014such as, they pay flat income tax rates (or, as in the graphic above, they stand on the same-sized box)\u2014then everyone is equal. Liberals say that we need to work actively to reduce inequality (like making sure everyone can see over the fence) because doing so reduces harm and increases fairness. We want to spend money not on handouts but on a hand up for poor people.\nThe social contract in western democracies has long been that we pay taxes according to how much we make so that we can collectively build a base beyond which struggling people can\u2019t fall. We all\u2014liberals and conservatives alike\u2014want people to take responsibility for themselves, and to use their natural abilities and talents to take them as far as those abilities and talents can take them. We liberals see helping the least among us as not just a duty, but as a necessary step toward making that shared goal possible.\nEquality is necessary for any society to function. Without it, social resentments can lead to violence, but even when it doesn\u2019t, it holds back the entire society. Easing inequality, then, is for liberals a basic and important goal. This graphic shows that liberal view well.\nThere\u2019s a lot of rubbish on the Internet. Sometimes, there are good and effective visual representations of issues, etc. This graphic is one of those.\nI have no idea who made the graphic, or I\u2019d give proper attribution.\nDebating the fringe\nOn Christmas, several relatives told me about an early December \"debate\" on TVNZ's \"Breakfast\" programme between TV psychologist (and marriage equality advocate) Nigel Latta and well-known far right religious extremist, Bob McCoskrie (with whom I had enlightening Twitter, um, exchanges I obliquely referred to in this post). The relatives told me about how Latta did well, and the nutjob did very, very badly. Well, night before last I watched it on demand and they were right!\nMcCoskrie argued that since he can't become a nun, therefore, gay couples shouldn't be allowed to marry. Yeah, I can't follow that \"logic\", either. Bizarre reasoning aside, he missed a very important point: What the Catholic church decides to so with its religious staff\u2014priests, nuns, monks\u2014is of no concern of any government. Governments shouldn\u2019t tell churches who can and can\u2019t be nuns or priests, and churches shouldn\u2019t be able to dictate that government obey their religious dictates.\nSo, this suggests that McCoskrie doesn\u2019t understand separation of church and state, that the fact that he can\u2019t become a nun is an issue between him and that church\u2014and totally irrelevant to the question of whether governments should treat all citizens equally. And, anyway, polls show that growing majorities of Catholics support marriage equality, so Bob might want to use an analogy from a group of people friendlier to his odd and antique views. Like maybe the Klan or something.\nAnyway, if you want to see a religious raving lunatic bark utter nonsense, and a rational mainstream person counter it, check it out on TVNZ\u2019s On Demand service (may not be available in all countries). But you don't really need to: No Kiwi takes McCoskrie seriously\u2014he's a total self-parody and joke.\nI\u2019m not kidding about that, either: When he started popping up on TV as the voice of rightwing Christianity in NZ, I thought he was practicing deep-cover parody, because he seemed to be trying to discredit far-right politics in this country (Poe's Law again). The fact is, he\u2019s the real deal, and quite serious; he just doesn\u2019t realise he\u2019s a joke.\nThe \u201cBreakfast\u201d debate was held on the day that New Zealand\u2019s Campaign for Marriage Equality released their campaign video, \u201cMarriage Equality Matters\u201d, which I blogged about at the time. It turns out, the video\u2019s premier was actually on that day\u2019s \u201cBreakfast\u201d programme, but, since I stopped watching the show ages ago, I never saw it. It was one of many things this month that I missed, but would have blogged about.\nI still have a few days to catch up with some of them before this year is done.\nThis post is a revised and expanded version of something I originally posted to Facebook and Google+.\nLabels: AmeriNZ, Gay Rights, LGBT, Marriage Equality, NZ Marriage Equality, NZ Politics, Wingnuts\nToday is Boxing Day, probably the biggest shopping day of the year in New Zealand. We actually ventured out to the mall closest to our house, but didn\u2019t end up buying anything at any of the numerous Boxing Day Sales. I did pick up some items on special at the supermarket in the mall\u2014does that count?\nTonight we\u2019re going over to my sister-in-law\u2019s house for dinner, which will be nice. You could call it our St. Stephen\u2019s Day Feast, but that would be silly because, Good King Wenceslas notwithstanding, few people I know have ever even heard of the day (though Kiwis of Irish and Welsh descent may have).\nMostly, this was just a quiet day after Christmas, with all the dogs\u2014ours and the visiting dog, Boy\u2014all napping contentedly. So, a good day in other words.\nWell, apart from that rain humidity, but that\u2019s the way it goes.\nHere, as has become my tradition, is the annual Christmas Broadcast from Queen Elizabeth, the Queen of New Zealand (etc.) and Head of the Commonwealth. She\u2019s also head of the Anglican Church, which explains all the overt religiosity. My mind always drifts when she starts the religious part.\nTo be honest, I\u2019ve always thought that these messages are a little too slow moving, maybe even a bit dour. And, they seem to make the video private at some point in the year following, which is weird. So, this could be your only chance to see it.\nI don\u2019t remember ever seeing one while living in the USA. That\u2019s probably part of the reason I make a point of watching them.\nAnd, posting them is now my blogging tradition.\nLabels: amerinz.blogspot.com, blogs and blogging, Commonwealth, New Zealand, Video\nIt's Christmas Day in Auckland. And it's raining. But it'll be a good day all the same. It always is.\nWe have fewer people joining us this year\u2014we're seven adults and two children all up\u2014so we won't have trouble fitting all of us in the house, where it's cooler, anyway. But, then, we also have a large covered area outside, not that we're likely to use it today.\nIt'll be a day of food, drink and fun. Like always. So a little rain won't matter, because it'll be a good day. It always is.\nAmid the madding crowd\nThis afternoon, I needed to venture out to pick up a last couple items for tomorrow\u2019s Christmas Feast. It wasn\u2019t as bad as it might have been.\nMy sister-in-law accompanied me (she only needed some malt vinegar), and off we went to the local small shopping centre that has the grocery story I go to. The carpark was packed. We waited, someone left, someone didn\u2019t, and we moved on to take another park just as the lady who didn\u2019t leave, who we were waiting for, decided to leave after all.\nWaiting for the new park, a man decided that he should have that spot. He was wrong, and left searching for a new space, one he could legitimately claim. I should say now, because I\u2019ll forget later, that when we left, we got out as fast as possible so others waiting for a park could select our space quickly and easily.\nThe small mall/shopping centre/whatever wasn\u2019t all that busy, really. However, the grocery store had sold out of English muffins\u2014can you imagine?! Well, they did have two packs of fruit ones\u2014for which I gasped in horror, not the least because they simply wouldn\u2019t do for our Eggs Benedict Christmas brunch.\nA lady, who apparently had never been to a grocery store before, took forever at the checkout. Because she did, I noticed a window sign in the more-or-less health shop across the way for \u201cTart Cherry\u201d which, I surmised, was good for gout. A quick stop and $50 later, and I had some pills to try out.\nOff, then, to the butcher, after some discussion of possibly walking between shops, and who might do so\u2014something that would not have been a good idea for either of us. I picked up the steaks for our Christmas BBQ dinner. The sister-in-law, some salad stuff at the greengrocer. Then, it was on to another, smaller grocery store.\nOur final stop supplied us with English muffins (hooray!), some dip for the vege platter (which was NOT on the list, but needed), and some other odds and ends we couldn\u2019t get at the other store. Then, it was home.\nThai takeaways rounded out our Christmas Eve evening. The restaurant was empty when we arrived, but as we waited, the phone rang with large bookings for that evening. Home again, some wines and such and the evening ended.\nNow, as we ease toward the big day of Christmas, we are far from the madding crowd. Everything is good, and to all, a good night.\nAnd thanks to the sister-in-law, who suggested this blog post topic.\nLabels: AmeriNZ, amerinz.blogspot.com, Life in NZ\nI enjoy accuracy and truth and, if I\u2019m really honest, a bit too much pedantry. So I\u2019ve always loved the slogan, \u201cAxial Tilt: It\u2019s the Reason for the Season\u201d. The slogan pisses off dour fundamentalist Christians, which is a bonus, but I like it because it\u2019s true: We have summer and winter because the earth tilts at 23.4 degrees off the perpendicular (relative to the ecliptic plane), so axial tilt is, quite literally, the reason for this season\u2014and all the others.\nSo, in that sense, \u201cSeason\u2019s Greetings\u201d on a Christmas card is perfectly legitimate, though perhaps only when referring to the reason for the season. That\u2019s all pedantic enough to really please me.\nI know that some people get very upset indeed when people don\u2019t acknowledge the Christian side of the holiday, but, quite frankly, I don\u2019t really care: Such Christians almost always refuse to acknowledge the pagan (non-Christian) origins of most of their holiday: The Christmas tree, carolling, mistletoe, holly, yule log, Santa/Father Christmas and even the date of December 25 all have origins in non-Christian beliefs. So, it seems to me that it\u2019s more than a little precious to expect everyone to treat Christmas as a totally Christian holiday.\nPeople of many religions\u2014as well as none at all\u2014enjoy the Christmas holiday in its secular form. That\u2019s not going to change. Even though some people and some retailers like to focus on their personal religious beliefs around the holiday, they can\u2019t seriously expect those of us who believe differently to do the same.\nTo exist, freedom of religion must, as I often say, also mean freedom from religion, and that means that those of us who don\u2019t share in the Christian belief structure are entitled to celebrate Christmas in the way that most makes sense for us, just as Christians are entitled to celebrate the way they choose. Freedom of religion.\nBut axial tilt really is the reason for the season, with or without religion.\nLabels: AmeriNZ, Religion\nI\u2019ve been posting to this blog for over six years, but I haven\u2019t talked about everything. It\u2019s not hard to figure our what I think about issues, what I get up to, and so on, but obviously there\u2019s always more. Here\u2019s your chance to fill in the blanks.\nFor the first time ever, I\u2019m opening this up to questions: About me, about New Zealand, about being an expat\u2014whatever! If there\u2019s a question you\u2019ve had, now is the time to ask, and I promise to answer truthfully\u2014well, insofar as I\u2019m able.\nSimply post a question in the comments (anonymous comments are okay), or send me an email (link at right, under \u201cContact Me\u201d). Either way, I\u2019ll answer them in the order received, maybe over several posts (if I\u2019m fortunate to have many questions). If you email me, of course I can withhold your name when I reply (just let me know, or give me a pseudonym to refer to you).\nIf I get no questions\u2014which is highly probable, actually\u2014I\u2019ll just count this post as one more toward achieving my goal of an average of one post per day for the year. So, I\u2019ll still \u201cwin\u201d.\nNote: My answers to the questions are now posted, too.\nThis idea, like several others on this blog, is actually \u201cborrowed\u201d from my Blogging Buddy\u2122, Roger Green, who recently posed his latest \u201cAsk Roger Anything\u201d.\nLabels: AmeriNZ, amerinz.blogspot.com, Ask Arthur, blogs and blogging\nWorth quoting: Lawrence O\u2019Donnell\nIn this video MSNBC\u2019s Lawrence O\u2019Donnell slowly and methodically eviscerates the marketing speech delivered by Wayne LaPierre, head of the USA\u2019s main gun lobby group, the NRA. No one deserved this treatment more than LaPierre, who tried to exploit the massacre of little kids to make money for his group and to try and prevent more sane gun laws in the US.\nThe most idiotic, moronic and vile thing LaPierre said was that there should be armed police in every school. What made it such a stupid thing to say wasn\u2019t the estimated $6.7 BILLION cost, but the fact that he apparently seriously thinks we\u2019ll believe that it would mean massacres wouldn\u2019t happen. The graphic below shows how pathologically stupid that is and, by extension, how vile LaPierre is for thinking we\u2019ll fall for his bullshit.\nYesterday, I got into a \u201cdiscussion\u201d on Google+ with an advocate of \u201carmed citizens\u201d, someone I don\u2019t know at all. It didn\u2019t go well. That person used illogic, served up a mild ad hominem attack on me and was full-bore aggressive because I dared to poke holes in the \"armed citizen\" fallacy. Then the person dismissively shut down the debate with \"honestly I am tired of this nonissue being the focus while our kids are dying,\" because, obviously we cannot discuss gun issues to try and come up with a rational solution to prevent kids dying without first turning the US into the Wild West. As Lawrence pointed out in the video above, such an \u201carmed citizen\u201d was present when a madman opened fire on a crowd gathered to meet-up with former US Representative Gabrielle Giffords of Arizona, but the \u201cgood guy with a gun\u201d couldn\u2019t fire back because he couldn\u2019t be sure he wouldn\u2019t accidentally kill another innocent person.\nAll of which, in a nutshell, is why the gun debate never gets anywhere: The gun lobby won\u2019t tolerate any regulation, not matter how sensible, and they declare their positions to be non-negotiable. The self-righteous stand they take, that anyone who disagrees with them isn\u2019t merely wrong but mentally and morally defective and an enemy, represents everything that\u2019s wrong with the conservative \u201cmovement\u201d in general, the rightwing gun lobby in particular.\nThe lesson I learned on Google+ was to never engage in any discussion on this issue with strangers, since it's clearly pointless. But maybe if a few more people in the mainstream media and in politics had the guts to stand up to the NRA and demand rational regulation and policies, the US might get somewhere on this issue. I\u2019m not optimistic that will ever happen, but I keep hoping it will.\nTip o' the Hat to The Daily Kos.\nLabels: US Politics, Video, Wingnuts, Worth Quoting\nYet another Republican nutjob\nThis from a Republican state legislator in Texas:\nI've heard of people being killed playing ping-pong\u2014ping-pongs are more dangerous than guns. Flat-screen TVs are injuring more kids today than anything.\nSo sayeth that Republican oracle, Representative Kyle Kacal (R-12), who clearly knows a thing or two about a thing or two, though apparently he is unable to walk and chew gum at the same time\u2014at least, not without dragging his knuckles on the ground. Again. Not that it makes him any different from other Texas Republicans, of course. Kyle promises to block all attempts to strengthen gun laws in Texas, including a simple law to instruct people how to secure their assault weapons:\nPeople know what they need to do to be safe. We don't need to legislate that\u2014it's common sense. Once everyone's gun is locked up, then the bad guys know everyone's gun is locked up.\nAnd this is why ol\u2019 Kyle is a towering intellect in the modern Republican Party: He has a flair for the stupid. It\u2019s also why he\u2019s so typical of that party.\nLabels: US Politics, Wingnuts\nLet\u2019s talk about marriage equality\nThis video from Australian Marriage Equality urges people to talk bout marriage equality this Christmas. I think it\u2019s a splendid idea. The more people talk about it, and the more people understand that this affects people that they know and love, the more likely they are to support marriage equality.\nI have a few quibbles with this video\u2014the music track was too loud, the voices were of inconsistent levels\u2014but I think that, overall, they did a good job. Anything that promotes dialogue is a good thing, I think.\nHere in New Zealand, we have even more of an imperative: In the new year, the New Zealand Parliament will take up marriage equality. While everyone expects it to pass easily, anything could happen. So, it\u2019s important that everyone expresses support for marriage equality to their local Member of Parliament.\nThere are also plenty of US states\u2014including my native Illinois\u2014where marriage equality battles are looming.\nThis Christmas, let\u2019s talk about marriage equality.\nLabels: Gay Rights, LGBT, Marriage Equality, NZ Marriage Equality, NZ Politics, US Politics\nFrank talk on Scalia\nRep. Barney Frank, the 16-term openly gay Massachusetts Democrat, gave one of his last interviews before leaving office to Michelangelo Signorile. Speaking of US Supreme Court Associate Justice Antonin Scalia, he said:\nI was glad that he made clear what\u2019s been obvious, that he\u2019s just a flat out bigot. I\u2019d previously said he was a homophobe. And Fox and the rightwing said, \u2018Oh just because he\u2019s not for same-sex marriage?\u2019 And I said, \u2018No, let me be very clear. That\u2019s not it. This is a man who has said you should go to prison for having sex.\u2019 It was an extraordinarily abusive sentiment and it was dead wrong. And, by the way, for a guy who is supposed to be so smart\u2014quite stupid.\nThis young man said to him, \u2018Why do you compare sodomy to murder?\u2019 And he said, \u2018Well because I have a right to say if I think something is immoral.\u2019 Well the question wasn\u2019t about his right. The question was, by what morality is expressing your love for someone in a physical way equivalent to killing that person? It makes it clear that the man is an unreconstructed bigot, and given that you have a bigot on the Supreme Court like that, it is useful to know.\nI couldn\u2019t possibly agree with him more.\nLabels: AmeriNZ, US Politics, Worth Quoting\nAnd I still feel fine\nToday is December 21, 2012 and we\u2019re still here. So, it appears the Mayan Apocalypse never happened. The fact is, these things never happen because no one knows when, precisely, the world will end. There are plenty of things that could do it\u2014super volcanoes, asteroid impact, war, etc.\u2014but none of them were seen by a civilisation that couldn\u2019t even predict its own demise.\nNeither can religious crackpots accurately predict the end of the world, though they can certainly make money from pretending that they can. No one\u2014NO one\u2014knows when the word will end. People need to stop pretending or believing that anyone does, and those that persist in that belief, well, mental health professionals might be of some assistance.\nThere are many things in this world I\u2019m not sure about, but one I am sure of is this: This is not my last post to this blog.\nLabels: AmeriNZ, Life in NZ, Travel, Truth Squad\nFree, open and smart\nI\u2019m a strong advocate of a free and open Internet, and for Creative Commons as the best alternative to the stranglehold of media conglomerates. Together, the two provide the best options for collaboration, creativity and free expression. But some just don\u2019t get it.\nToday I wanted to post a fundraising video related to Creative Commons. The code was bloated and if used as provided would have taken up the visual space usually given to an entire blog post. I\u2019m not an HTML coder, but I tried what I knew to fix the issues, to no avail. So, the video isn\u2019t posted and the fundraising project gets no publicity on this blog.\nThe point isn\u2019t really that organisation\u2019s hapless social media integration, but, rather, the fact that this is a common failing. Non-profits and corporations alike just don\u2019t seem to grasp how best to use social media, which is astounding, considering it\u2019s so bloody easy.\nSo, here are a few tips for the clearly incompetent:\nFirst, videos: All videos should be embeddable with simple code. Look at the code YouTube provides to embed video and if yours is longer, it\u2019s total rubbish. SIMPLE is what counts\u2014no padding, no weird borders, shadows or framing, no stupid text links to what\u2019s already in the video\u2014just simple, clear code that can be scaled to fit the available space (again, like YouTube does).\nNext, Twitter posts should be as short as possible so one can add comments. I often skip re-tweeting an interesting Tweet because it\u2019s too long to add my own comment, even when I delete extraneous hashtags. Shorter is better.\nHardly any group gets Facebook (or Google+) right, either: It should be easy to share without a lot of added nonsense (the preview almost always provides some of the text, so why add that to the auto-generated Facebook post?\nAnd finally, sites should have clear and obvious re-use/licensing policies. It\u2019s shocking how many sites, mainstream and, especially, non-profit, don\u2019t make it clear what can be used under what circumstances.\nThis little rant was inspired by a good fundraising effort for a good cause that was ruined because the group couldn\u2019t even get the simplest things right. Groups\u2014and businesses\u2014really need to ask themselves whether they want to be shared, spread and talked about or ignored. Getting social networks right is shockingly easy\u2014and so often done wrong. The choice should be easy.\nNot borked\nOne political fight from the Reagan years that still resonates was the battle to prevent Robert Bork from becoming a justice on the US Supreme Court. To this day, conservatives consider Bork, who died Wednesday (US time), as a sort of martyr. To those on the centre and left who fought his nomination, as I did, he was a divisive symbol of conservative judicial activism.\nWhen Bork was nominated, I was a board member of the Illinois Gay and Lesbian Task Force, the state\u2019s only statewide LGBT civil rights group at the time. I was becoming increasingly active on federal issues, and the Bork fight was one of the first I took on.\nI received an anti-Bork flyer from some group\u2014I forget which one, though at the time I knew\u2014and I adapted it for our group. That flyer is in the photo with this post (click to embiggen). That same, October 1987 newsletter, contained an article I wrote titled \u201cBork Battle Begins\u201d (then as now, I liked alliteration in titles). Here's that story:\nBeginning what some are calling the most important civil rights battle since the 1960s, the US Senate Judiciary Committee has opened hearings on the nomination of Robert Bork to the US Supreme Court. In his opening statement, Bork declared that his philosophy of judging is \u201cneither conservative nor liberal,\u201d but based on a responsibility \u201cto discern how the (Constitution\u2019s) framers\u2019 values, defused in the context of the world they knew, apply to the world we know.\u201d\nBork\u2019s belief in \u201coriginal intent\u201d means, among other things, that he doesn\u2019t believe in a Constitutionally protected right to privacy\u2014especially for lesbian and gay people. As a Court of Appeals judge in the District of Columbia, Bork ruled that \u201cit (is) impossible to conclude that a right to homosexual conduct is \u2018fundamental\u2019 or \u2018implicit\u2019 in the concept of ordered liberty\u201d (Dronenburg v Zech et al.). He has also spoken and written disparagingly of the rights of women and blacks. His more moderate tone before the Senate Judiciary Committee has led some Senators to wonder which is the real Bork, and they have begun referring to Bork\u2019s \u201cconfirmation conversion\u201d.\nMeanwhile, organizations around the country, and Illinois, have called for the rejection of Bork\u2019s nomination. The Illinois Gay and Lesbian Task Force recently joined other groups in a meeting with assistants to US Senator Alan Dixon (D, Illinois), in an effort to persuade Dixon to oppose the Bork nomination. Dixon\u2019s staff was non-committal, but on Monday, September 14, the Chicago Sun-Times reported that Dixon was leaning toward approval of Bork. Though Dixon\u2019s office denied the report, Dixon\u2019s often conservative voting record in the Senate suggests that his vote is highly questionable.\nUS Senator Paul Simon, Illinois\u2019 other Senator, has expressed reservations about Bork. But Simon is a Democratic presidential candidate, and his final vote is uncertain.\nThe Illinois Gay and Lesbian Task Force is urging all of its members and supporters, and everyone who believes in \u201cJustice for All\u201d, to phone and write to Senators Dixon and Simon. Say YES to justice by saying NO to Bork!\nThe first thing I must say about that is that I certainly wouldn\u2019t write that way now. But, that was 25 years ago and a lot has changed, including me. It was also intended as political speech for our organisation, and not as objective reporting.\nUltimately, of course, Bork\u2019s nomination was rejected. On October 6, 1987, the Senate Judiciary committee voted 9-5 to reject the nomination, making rejection by the full Senate inevitable. On October 23, 1987, the Senate voted 58-42 against confirmation. Both of the US Senators from Illinois at that time, Alan Dixon and Paul Simon, voted to reject the nomination. The chair of the Judiciary Committee was Joe Biden, who is now Vice President. When Bork\u2019s nomination was rejected, the replacement nominee was Anthony Kennedy who was far less rigidly conservative than was Bork.\nThere\u2019s one odd aside I learned just today, that the word bork was given a specific meaning I\u2019d never heard: \"To defame or vilify (a person) systematically, esp. in the mass media, usually with the aim of preventing his or her appointment to public office; to obstruct or thwart (a person) in this way.\" That definition was clearly coined by conservatives. The reason it surprised me is that I\u2019d always heard that slang term used as a synonym for broken, as in, \u201chis TV is totally borked.\u201d\nOn October 11, 1987, not even two weeks before Bork\u2019s nomination was rejected by the Senate, several hundred thousand people took part in the \u201cMarch on Washington for Lesbian and Gay Rights\u201d. I was there. One of our chanted slogans was \u201cBork Bork!\u201d and that usage meant, fairly obviously, \u201creject\u201d.\nNothing has happened in the 25 years since those days to change my opinion of Bork, or what a disaster it would have been for the US if he\u2019d actually made it to the US Supreme Court. But other disasters\u2014Scalia, Thomas, Alito\u2014did make it through. Still, the US is lucky that so many of us stood up for what was right and prevented Robert Bork from borking the US Constitution (there, that word back in its correct usage).\nThe flyer pictured above, and the text of the newsletter article I've reprinted, are from the Illinois Gay and Lesbian Task Force Monthly Bulletin, Volume 1, Number 4, October, 1987. It is from my personal archives.\nLabels: AmeriNZ, Gay Rights, History, LGBT, Personal History, US Politics\nEquality in Illinois?\nMy native Illinois may enact marriage equality next month, a little over two years since it created marriage-like civil unions. The move comes in the wake of three states enacting marriage equality at the ballot box last month, and polls consistently showing most Americans support marriage equality, as do most Illinoisans.\nThis week the Chicago Sun-Times said in an editorial that \u201cIt\u2019s time for gay marriage in Illinois. Not in the distant future. Not in the near future. But now.\u201d The Chicago Tribune has not yet editorialised on the proposal, but in the past it has supported marriage equality.\nNow wingnuts, anti-gay hate groups, bigots and religious extremists have come together to \u201cThe Coalition To Protect Children & Marriage,\" a hilariously ironic name, since marriage equality is what protects children and marriage, not preventing marriage equality. The far right opponents are veritable who\u2019s who of extremists (mostly religious, some secular), anti-gay bigots and far right crackpots. The group is led by a Republican ex-state legislator who was once the leading anti-gay bigot in the Illinois House of Representatives, until her extremism became too much even for her staunchly Republican district and she lost her own party\u2019s primary. She now heads the group founded by Illinois\u2019 leading wingnut crackpot, the completely irrelevant Phyllis Schlafly, whose career is now made up of desperate attempts to convince people she and her stone age ideas matter to anyone other than her fellow wingnuts. The reality is, she hasn\u2019t been relevant in Illinois or US politics for a generation.\nSo, what we have on one side, supporting marriage equality, are mainstream voters and the political and media establishment. On the other is nothing more than the usual cabal of the crazy, extreme and bigoted, a cadre of negativism that mainstream people don\u2019t want anything to do with. This bodes well for Illinois.\nIf the Illinois General Assembly does enact marriage equality next month, Governor Pat Quinn has pledged to sign it into law, and that will be that: Illinois doesn\u2019t permit binding referenda from citizens, so all the negativists and haters could do is get an advisory referendum on the ballot\u2014basically, a taxpayer-funded opinion poll.\nWe have passed the tipping point in the marriage equality debate. Even if the Illinois legislature doesn\u2019t enact marriage equality next month, it is inevitable that it will, sooner rather than later. Time and history are on our side, something even the shrill negativists and haters know. The power of love is unstoppable.\nLabels: Chicago, Gay Rights, Good News, Illinois, LGBT, Marriage Equality, US Politics, Wingnuts\nWhen one is busy\nI\u2019m always busy, it seems, as so many others are. Usually I manage to blog on a regular basis, but that\u2019s been harder this year, and podcasting largely impossible. My first inclination is to think I\u2019m not as good as the people who overcome such obstacles, which probably means I\u2019m telling you more about me and my psyche than I should, but there you go. Blogging.\nIt\u2019s not just about being organised and prepared and such, even though I often tell myself it is, because I\u2019ve always been a spontaneous blogger, writing about what interests me at that very moment. I\u2019ve never been particularly good at preparing blog posts in advance, though I wish I were.\nSame with podcasting. Most of the podcasters I know record in advance of when they actually post episodes, sometimes WAY in advance. Not me. If a recorded episode isn\u2019t posted in 24 hours, it probably never will be, and I have many, many \u201clost episodes\u201d. Blog posts, too, for that matter.\nWell, that\u2019s the way things were. It\u2019s time to adapt to the new reality: I\u2019m busy almost non-stop now, and finding the time for spontaneity is getting harder and harder. So, in the coming year I hope to be able to prepare blog posts and podcast episodes in advance so that I can keep to some sort of regular schedule. I hope to be able to slip in additional blog posts and podcast episodes whenever a topic grabs me, but at the very least I hope to maximise time when it\u2019s available so I can publish new content on a regular basis. The way I see it, what\u2019s the point of building a relationship with followers if I don\u2019t provide new stuff?\nThat\u2019s all what I hope to do. Whether I succeed or not, well\u2026 This year hasn\u2019t been great, but a new year always provides the opportunity for a restart, a reboot. Even when one is busy.\nLabels: AmeriNZ, amerinz.blogspot.com, blogs and blogging, Podcast\nAbout those cases\nThe US Supreme Court has agreed to take up two cases regarding marriage equality in the US. There is one thing we know for certain: No one knows what the Court will do.\nI\u2019m not a lawyer or legal scholar, but even if I were, it wouldn\u2019t help. Still, you need to know where I\u2019m coming from before I comment because, like everyone else, my lack of qualification doesn\u2019t stop me (or any of us) from guessing what will happen.\nOne thing I thought was very interesting was the questions the Court asked in the two cases. I think the way the Court rules may actually be related to those questions.\nIn the Proposition 8 case, the Court wants the petitioners (the anti-gay people) to file a brief on whether they have standing under Article III, Section 2 of the US Constitution. If the Court determines that, no, they don\u2019t have standing, they could dismiss the case without ever ruling on the constitutionality of Proposition 8 itself, or whether voters have the right to enshrine discrimination in their state constitutions. That would leave the earlier ruling in place and marriage equality would return to California, without the larger questions being settled.\nI doubt very much that the Court will use the Prop 8 case to strike down similar anti-gay amendments to other states\u2019 constitutions. At the most, they might rule that there was something wrong with Prop 8 itself, but only in the context of California, but my bet would be that they\u2019ll rule very narrowly, perhaps only on the issue of standing, ruling that the anti-gay side doesn\u2019t have standing to defend Prop 8.\nIn the challenge to DOMA, the Court asked if the fact that the Executive Branch was not defending the law took away the Supreme Court\u2019s jurisdiction. They also asked whether the \u201cBipartisan\u201d Legal Advisory Group has Article III, Section 2 standing to defend the law. The \u201cB\u201dLAG was created by Republicans in Congress to defend DOMA when President Obama said he would not; whether or not that\u2019s constitutional is itself an interesting question. Constitutionally, Congress makes laws, the President enforces and defends them and the Supreme Court adjudicates conflicts laws create. Granting standing to \u201cB\u201dLAG could create a separation of powers conflict.\nSo, on the DOMA ruling, it wouldn\u2019t surprise me if, because of the separation of powers issues, the Court denied standing to \u201cB\u201dLAG. On the other hand, since the issues in DOMA are huge and national, the Court may take the case to deal with those issues, especially because Section 3 of DOMA is so blatantly unconstitutional.\nThe Court seldom makes radical rulings and generally follows public opinion, not lead it. Roe v. Wade was one case where the Court was way ahead of public opinion and four decades on, the country is still divided over abortion. However, the US is increasingly supportive of marriage equality, as demonstrated by the elections this past November when three states enacted it by referendum. So, the Court doesn\u2019t risk being very far in front of the public.\nThe potential issues are this: If the Court upholds Proposition 8, then it will have to be overturned by ballot measure (and it almost certainly would be). The worse part would be that legal challenges to similar state constitutional amendments could collapse. But this all seems highly unlikely to happen, unless the Court finds that the majority can discriminate against a minority through ballot measures (unlikely, and it would be a huge worry for all minorities in the US).\nIf the Court upholds DOMA, it would be a Dred Scott-like decision\u2014deeply flawed, wrong in law and morality, and one that would obviously be overturned by a later Court. This is not a likely outcome. If that happened, it would await the faster option of repeal by Congress, probably 15-20 years from now.\nThe Supreme Court has usually been evolutionary rather than revolutionary. As the US has moved consistently and inevitably toward fully embracing marriage equality, there\u2019s now no reason to think the Supreme Court will take a backwards step on these cases.\nMy bottom line prediction: They will overturn both Prop 8 and DOMA, though perhaps only on very limited, even pedantic grounds.\nLabels: Court Rulings, Gay Rights, LGBT, Marriage Equality, US Politics\nNZ podcast guest spot\nI almost never mention my podcast on this blog anymore, and when I do it\u2019s because of a special reason. Like, this one.\nI was recently a guest on \u201cThe Egonomist\u201d, a Wellington-based political podcast. That episode is now posted to my podcast site.\nThis was the first time since I started podcasting in 2007 that I\u2019ve been a guest on a New Zealand podcast. The reason is simply that there just aren\u2019t many independent podcasts in this country. Instead, most are what I call \u201cCommercial Podcasts\u201d, that is, recorded versions of radio and television shows, or things put out by government or businesses. They\u2019re the sort of things that iTunes Store promotes instead of independent content producers\nThere are sometimes NZ podcasts from non-profit organisations (like churches) or political groups, but not many of them and many don\u2019t last or are sporadic. Since there are only a handful of independent podcasts in New Zealand at any given time, it was probably only natural that sooner or later we\u2019d record together (and I\u2019ll have the hosts, Dan and Dave on my podcast next year). We also have similar political views, which made it even more likely we\u2019d record together.\nI\u2019ve listened to them for quite awhile now, and I follow Dan and Dave on Twitter (highly recommend them both), where we\u2019ve had good conversations, a few laughs and some fun. All of which made me feel like I knew them long before we recorded together.\nI am a podcast listener as much as content producer (these days, probably more so), and I\u2019m a booster of independent podcasters and podcasting. I think it\u2019s a wonderful medium, which is a topic in itself, I suppose.\nBut for now, check out the episode. Links for The Egonomist and Dan\u2019s and Dave\u2019s Twitter feeds are on my podcast site.\nLabels: AmeriNZ, AmeriNZ Podcast, Marriage Equality, NZ Marriage Equality, NZ Politics, Podcast Guest Spot, podcasts, US 2012 Elections, US Politics\nBan \u2018robocalls\u2019\nEveryone I know hates automated telemarketing phonecalls, better known as \u201crobocalls\u201d. Here in New Zealand, we don\u2019t get them during political campaigns, and only rarely for other marketing. However, I\u2019ve been getting three or four a week (from the same people) for several weeks, and I absolutely hate, loathe and despise them. I think robocalls should be outlawed.\nHere\u2019s a little fact about me: I\u2019ve never bought anything marketed to me on a cold-call phone call. Nor do I donate to any charity that uses telemarketers. The reason for the first is that I can\u2019t trust that they\u2019re legitimate, and the reason for the second is that the telemarketing company takes a cut\u2014sometimes the vast majority\u2014of every dollar raised. If I think it\u2019s a good charity, I\u2019ll make a direct donation so they get all the money, not just a portion.\nThe calls I\u2019ve been getting are hawking life insurance, which I think must be some sort of scam: No legitimate insurance company would use robocalls that begin with an ominous voice warning, \u201cthis is an important message for all New Zealanders\u201d. Um, no, it isn\u2019t at all important\u2014it\u2019s a bloody nuisance, is what it really is, a pointless intrusion into my day.\nI always used to hang up the minute I heard, \u201cThis is an important\u2026\u201d. Then, I let the message play in the hope it would cost them money and a real-live operator would come on and have to determine that I was ignoring them. But, the calls are probably free or nearly so, and they don\u2019t have real people, just a prompt to dial 1 for more information.\nSo, today I thought I\u2019d dial that one and tell them to stop calling me. I got another recording telling me to leave my name and address, and to speak slowly and clearly. Yeah, that sounds totally legitimate.\nSo, speaking VERY slowly, dragging out each syllable, I told them to stop robocalling me and that if they didn\u2019t I\u2019d bill them for $30 per half second. I made that number up on the spot. Later, for my own amusement, I decided on a legal-sounding script I\u2019m going to use when they call again, as they certainly will.\nNew Zealand has a completely voluntary \u201cDo Not Call List\u201d, but only members of the marketing association (whatever it\u2019s called\u2014I\u2019ve forgotten, and don\u2019t really care, to be honest) can use it, and even then it\u2019s completely voluntary. Put another way, it\u2019s total bullshit.\nI think that New Zealand should enact a REAL, mandatory \u201cDo Not Call List\u201d that all telemarketers must use, without exception.\nI also want robocalls banned. The reason I want them banned is that no machine should be able to disturb one\u2019s life without the real live human recipient having any recourse. When I get a telemarketing call from a real human, I\u2019ll politely tell him or her that I\u2019m not interested, and then I hang up. They seldom ring again. But a robocall provides no such option, no way to complain apart from being a smart-arse to their voicemail, something they\u2019re sure to ignore. And there\u2019s something about a recorded hawker that\u2019s just automatically many times more annoying than a real human.\nThe current government hates any regulation of business and will never do anything to make life better for ordinary consumers. So, there will be no mandatory \u201cDo Not Call List\u201d. Robocalls will also not be banned.\nAt least I\u2019ll have plenty of opportunity to amuse myself by being a smart-arse to some scammy company\u2019s voicemail.\nLabels: AmeriNZ, Life in NZ, New Zealand, NZ Politics\nIn this video, Dan Savage issues the same challenge that I often have: Those on the Christian Left must speak up not to me or other liberals, but to the right. Rightwing Christians deny that Leftwing Christians are legitimately Christian, they reject not just the truth as liberals and Leftists know it, but also the very Christianity of those who hold those views.\nSo, the duty, obligation and necessity is not for leftist Christians to tell ME how they\u2019re different, but to tell the rightwing and\u2014even more importantly\u2014to demand that the right stop claiming that it alone represents \u201ctrue\u201d Christianity. The rightwing will never do that, of course, so the left must then take the battle to the media, and make sure they understand that there are many views within Christianity, and the rightwing view is only one view, a narrow view not share by all Christians.\nIf liberal and Leftist Christians fail to do this, then they must accept that they will be tarred with the same brush as their intolerant and bigoted fellow Christians on the right. They must also then accept that they deserve to be.\nLabels: Politics (International), Religion, Video\nI\u2019ve always been a strong supporter of gun control. Always. I don\u2019t need yet another gun massacre, or more innocent lives lost, to make me oppose easy access to guns because I always have.\nThe fact is, the more guns there are, the more gun violence there is. That\u2019s a knowable, verifiable thing, not some political opinion. A gun in a home greatly increases the likelihood of murder, suicide and assault with a gun. Those, too, are facts. The countries with the lowest rates of gun death are also those with the fewest guns per capita, and the most violent nations on earth are those with the most guns\u2014more pesky facts.\nThe US rightwing, led by the preeminent gun nut group, the NRA, doesn\u2019t like those facts because they alone make a strong case for limiting access to guns. Instead, rightwingers resort to banal, downright stupid sloganeering, like their favourite one: \u201cIf guns are outlawed, only outlaws will have guns.\u201d Um, no, if guns are outlawed, outlaws will have knives (and when was the last time there was a \u201cmass knifing\u201d in the news?).\nAmerica\u2019s gun nuts love the Second Amendment to the US Constitution\u2014but only the end part. They have no frigging idea what the entire Amendment means, taken as a whole, but considering that it was written at a time when the top gun was a single-shot flintlock rifle, it\u2019s absolutely certain that the framers never intended for, say, automatic weapons to be in the hands of ordinary people. For that matter, they never intended guns to be in everyone\u2019s hands (that pesky bit about \u201ca well-regulated militia\u201d is the important part). Still, not even most of the justices on the US Supreme Court understand that.\nI\u2019m under no illusion that the US will ever end gun violence. The gun nuts are too powerful, too rich and can buy too many politicians. There will never be any real gun reform in the US, though there may be some tinkering around the edges. US politicians could re-ban assault weapons, they could require mandatory licensing and safety instruction for anyone wanting to own a gun, as well as mandatory background checks and waiting periods for anyone wanting to buy a gun\u2014no exceptions, no loopholes. None of that will happen.\nStill, not even the modest, minor reforms outlined above would prevent the next mass shooting because there are still too many guns in the hands of too many people. Countless free and democratic countries around the world\u2014including New Zealand\u2014have proven it doesn\u2019t have to be that way. American politics have proven that for the USA, it does have to be that way. And that, ultimately, is the biggest tragedy of all.\nSay what you want, Google makes some good videos. Not a surprise, really, nor that they should so ably capture the Zeitgeist of 2012\u2014at least as represented by what we searched for. I think this video is very well done.\nToday is 12/12/12, the last time a date will be arranged like that for much longer than most of the people I know will be alive. Including me. It's also a date that the US and the rest of the world write the same way. All of that is interesting to me.\nMostly, though, I just like number patterns and wanted to acknowledge this one, even though I don't have time for blogging at the moment.\nRuined my Christmas\nThis is an anti-Christmas song, directed by Boy George and Dean Stockings and featuring Supreme Fabulettes. \u201cYou ruined my Christmas, you made it a drag\u2026\u201d um, literally.\nToday marriage equality officially began in the US state of Washington. That\u2019s something to be celebrated, and many are celebrating that fact. But I want to celebrate, especially, the personal: Today, one of my dearest friends in the world was able to legally marry his husband.\nOne day, we will\u2014in all 50 US States, New Zealand, Australia\u2014look back and wonder why this was ever an issue. One day, as the opposition fades away, we will wonder how anyone could ever have stood in the way of love. One day, we will wonder why anyone could ever have had hearts made of the coldest stone.\nBut for now, for today, I just want to celebrate my friend, and how very happy I am for him. It is historic, yes, but it is also intensely personal, as loving same-gender couples in Washington are able to legally commit in marriage the same way their heterosexual friends and family members can. But, again, this isn\u2019t just history, it\u2019s personal\u2014and it\u2019s love.\nMy friend and his partner appear in this local news report, but out of respect for his privacy, I won\u2019t say more than that. Well, no more than that and I\u2019m so very happy for him!\nLabels: America, AmeriNZ, Gay Rights, Good News, LGBT, Marriage Equality, NZ Marriage Equality, US Politics\nMarriage equality matters\nAbove is a new video from New Zealand\u2019s Campaign for Marriage Equality. It features \u201ccelebrities, media personalities, respected community leaders, sports people and everyday New Zealanders who all support marriage equality, and the campaign to [extend] equal marriage to all\u201d (a list of people in the video is in the video description on YouTube). I like it.\nThe video focuses on the main issue, that a person ought to have the right to commit in marriage to the person he or she loves, and also that that right ought to be available to all people equally\u2014gay and straight alike. It\u2019s such a simple issue, and the video is simple and straightforward. That's what makes it effective, in my opinion.\nEnacting marriage equality really should be a no-brainer, and, increasingly, it is: The tide of history and justice are on our side: Marriage equality is inevitable. It would be nice, though, if that progress was a little faster.\nLike the video says, this issue is about love. What rational person could be against that?\nLabels: Gay Rights, LGBT, Marriage Equality, NZ Marriage Equality, NZ Politics, Pop Culture, Video\nBusy, not gone\nI apologise for the lack of posts, but apart from the quick Tweet or Facebook post, I just haven\u2019t had time for online activity.

        "raw_content": "BORN 22 Feb 1806, Dinant, Namur - DIED 18 Jun 1865, Brussel\nGRAVE LOCATION Brussel: Ixelles Cimeti\u00e8re (avenue 5)\nAntoine Wiertz was the son of a soldier from the army of Napoleon Bonaparte who worked for the police forces of the Netherlands after the fall of the emperor. The young Wiertzs admired the work of Rubens and studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp. In 1828 he just missed the Prize of Rome, coming second. From 1829 until 1832 he lived in Paris, where he studied the great works of the Louvre, earning his bread drawing portraits.\nIn 1832 he returned to Antwerp and in this year he did win the Prize of Rome. He arrived in Rome in 1834 and he worked there at the studio of Horace Vernet until 1837. In 1835 he rented another studio to make his enormous painting \"Greeks and Trojans wrestle for the body of Patrocos\" (Mus\u00e9e de l'Art Wallon, Li\u00e8ge). In 1836 he painted the passing away of Laetitia Bonaparte, Napoleon's mother. His work was noted in Rome and he was complimented by the famous Thorvaldsen and admitted to the Accademia di San Luca.\nAfter his years in Rome he returned to Paris, but he failed to impress the critics and left Paris in disgust. He worked in Li\u00e8ge (1837) and then Brussels (1845). In 1851 he obtained a new studio at the Rue Vautier. It was put at his disposal on the condition that he would make seven large paintings for the state. After he died the state inherited his posessions as well as the house. Soon the author Hendrik Conscience moved in and lived there until he died in 1883.

        "title": "Renato Barilli",
        "raw_content": "THE WORLD \"SUB SPECIE LIBRI\"\nby Renato Barilli, Bologna, Italy, April 1994\nTranslated from Italian by Angela Lorenz with the assistance of Donatella Franchi\nThe artist's book has been an extraordinary instrument from the fascinating moment in which art decided to step beyond its traditional areas and practice alternative means, suggested by different areas of research. Among thee, the field of written communication could not be absent, with its principal instrument, the book. Through it, the visual arts have tried to escape oppressive structural limits that have always condemned art to be a manifestation of space, according to Lessing's famous definition. Where the arts of the word make use of time, they may depend on sequence and series, and subsequently on the systematic collection of facts and the grouping of elements placed one after another. A painting, instead, is forced to exhibit every resource simultaneously: everything is evident immediately. Another aspect, not so much regarding writing in general but specific to the printed word, relegated to the book: the miniaturization, the reduced format, which consents the use of materials in advantageous ways. Books, given their small format, are more easily preserved and transported than paintings, not to mention sculptures. And finally, printed works have the precious gift of being reproduced, allowing for a reduction in cost. Different artistic disciplines turn to printing as a means of reproduction, through etching and lithography, but in these cases, once again, it is difficult to reduce the format and aim for a large edition. In any case, monoprints are flawed by the same limits to which paintings are subject.\nAdopting the size and technical possibilities of the book is, therefore, an important innovation for the visual arts, and for this reason the protagonists of the conceptual movement did not hesitate to do so, as they were ready, in the years around 1968, to avail themselves of sounds, odors and even flavors. However, if we look from a closer vantage point at the most noted conceptual artists, we realize that for them the artist's book was one of many instruments which served them, in that audacious and anti-establishment environment. A peculiarity of Angela Lorenz is, instead, that for her the use of this form of expression becomes an unequivocal choice, devoid of alternatives. Few have specialized in this genre as she has; in others, the artist's book remains an extra means, to adopt at times, but to abandon moments later, and at any rate it is utilized for certain ends or ideas that are somehow not connected to it. In Lorenz, however, it is the ideas and content that must bend to the characteristics of such a means, which then transforms itself for its own ends. In other words, the artist goes around with a curious eye in search of all that lends itself to being captured and translated into the format of an artist's book. The entire universe is seen by her, one could say, \"sub specie libri,\" existing in the way in which she knows how to bend her work to fit the laws of seriality, reproduction and miniaturization. From here, an inventive imagination continually surprises us.\nNaturally, that which interests Lorenz isn't the flat and neutral book, which lends itself to normal verbal messages. It is, rather, the accordion-fold book in which views for tourists are collected, or the book-container in which precious panels are enclosed, and the \"portafoglio\" of pictures in luxurious materials, a forum for the manual dexterity and craftsmanship of the person creating them. Here are the innumerable ideas, materialized in these precious \"series,\" ideas which one is almost afraid to name, in order not to weigh down their humor and exuberance. Here is the succession of photos, of Italian monuments, having in common the fact that all are obscured by \"works in progress;\" here is a census of colors from the various facades of the streets in Bologna; or collections of traces left behind, small lost objects, such as buttons. And there are the series actually based on verbal elements, with which we are closer to the normal conditions of a book: well-wishing phrases or sentences that deform and reveal a second meaning when we stretch the elastic surface on which they are written. In fact, in all the books conceived by Lorenz, that which counts is the respect for the structural characteristics of this great instrument, but not necessarily the materials of which it usually consists; materials which are often plain and colorless. From this point of view, Lorenz behaves as an ingenious talent from the baroque period that seeks for the collection of all the variations possible around an idea or factual information, pushing them towards the most bizarre and unforeseeable extremes, to the point of provoking a sense of humor in ourselves.\nAnd to this may be added a sense of detail and care that we could well call feminine, that is in some way in contrast with the stereotypical mechanical character that normally belongs to the book, a principal product of the industrial Age, inaugurated with Gutenberg's invention. But this artist, as has been said, aims each time to re-endow the serialized work with traces of manual dexterity. We are in the presence of happy compromise between two different thrusts: between uniqueness and large editions, between quantity and quality.",

        "title": "Umphrey's McGee | Another Planet Entertainment Umphrey's McGee | Another Planet Entertainment",
        "raw_content": "The music of Umphrey\u2019s McGee unfolds like an unpredictable conversation between longtime friends. Its six participants\u2014Brendan Bayliss [guitar, vocals], Jake Cinninger [guitar, vocals], Joel Cummins [keyboards, piano, vocals], Andy Farag [percussion], Kris Myers [drums, vocals], and Ryan Stasik [bass]\u2014know just how to communicate with each other on stage and in the studio. A call of progressive guitar wizardry might elicit a response of soft acoustic balladry, or a funk groove could be answered by explosive percussion. At any moment, heavy guitars can give way to heavier blues as the boys uncover the elusive nexus between jaw-dropping instrumental virtuosity and airtight song craft.\nThe conversation continues on their eleventh full-length album, it\u2019s not us [Nothing Too Fancy Music]\u2014which was released January 12, 2018.\n\u201cIt represents the band, because it basically runs the gamut from prog rock to dance,\u201d says Brendan. \u201cWe\u2019ve mastered our ADD here. The record really shows that.\u201d\n\u201cNo matter what you\u2019re into, there\u2019s something on it\u2019s not us that should speak to you,\u201d agrees Joel. \u201cThis is a statement album for Umphrey\u2019s McGee. The sound is as fresh as ever. The songs are strong as they\u2019ve ever been. We\u2019re always pushing forward.\u201d\nIt\u2019s also how the band is celebrating its 20-year anniversary. Instead of retreading the catalog, they turn up with a pile of new tunes.\n\u201cIt\u2019d be easy to play the hits from our first five or ten years,\u201d continues Joel. \u201cWe\u2019ve never been a band to rest on our laurels though. New music is key to our continued development. We\u2019re known as a strong live band, but we take so much pride in our writing. This album distinguishes us because the focus is on that writing.\u201d\nAppropriately, this idea gestated on a sunny May afternoon at Wrigley Field. Six months before The Cubs won their first World Series since 1908, Brendan took in a game on a rare day off.\n\u201cI can pinpoint the actual a-ha moment,\u201d Brendan goes on. \u201cMy wife was out. My kids were at daycare. I walked to Wrigley, bought a standing room ticket, and enjoyed the game. Halfway through it, I thought to myself, \u2018If we can get into the studio by the end of the year, we can have a brand new record.\u2019 That\u2019s where it all started.\u201d\nBringing things full circle, Umphrey\u2019s McGee entered I.V. Labs Studio in Chicago ready (and maybe a little hungover) a week after that historic game seven. For the first time since recording Local Band Does O.K. in 2002, five of the six members roomed together in a rental condo with Brendan staying a stone\u2019s throw away at home.\n\u201cWe would wake up, bounce ideas off each other, and go to the studio together,\u201d recalls Joel. \u201cWe did all of this as a unit. There was something really special about our group ethos coming together for this project. We decided to go in for a week, live, eat, and breathe Umphrey\u2019s McGee. It\u2019s the most fun we\u2019ve had in the studio. It really was a blast. Having that camaraderie was really cool.\u201d\nThat camaraderie shines through in their inimitable interplay, which finds them at the pinnacle of their craft and groove as a band. That chemistry defines the approach\u2014which sees Umphrey\u2019s McGee hone their songwriting to its sharpest point to date.\n\u201cI feel like we\u2019re getting better and better at writing succinct, concise musical pieces,\u201d Brendan elaborates. \u201cWhen we started out, we were trying to figure out how to fill time. We didn\u2019t have much of a catalog, so we had to extend things and repeat parts in order to make up space. Since our catalog is so big now, we don\u2019t feel the need to make everything ten minutes long. We\u2019ve really trimmed the fat. Everything seems to be the right length.\u201d\nIt\u2019s definitely the case with the first single from it\u2019s not us \u201cThe Silent Type.\u201d Powered by a bombastic beat, funkified rhythms, fiery fretwork, and a chantable refrain, this anthem introduces it\u2019s not us with a bright and brilliant bang.\n\u201cIt\u2019s super simple,\u201d explains Brendan. \u201cThis character is in the wrong place at the wrong time making the wrong decisions. Everybody has to deal with temptation. That\u2019s a part of life. This guy goes out, and he blows it after a girl offers him a cigarette. You see it all the time.\u201d\n\u201cHalf Delayed\u201d builds from airy guitar into an iridescent refrain that serves as \u201ca reminder to stop and smell the roses.\u201d Meanwhile, the bass strut, anthemic beat production, and percussive wallop of \u201cLooks\u201d could be the love child of Nine Inch Nails and Talking Heads. Then, the metallic shredfest outro of \u201cRemind Me\u201d bleeds effortlessly into the gorgeous acoustic love song \u201cYou & You Alone.\u201d\n\u201cWe called the record it\u2019s not us, because it\u2019s really not about us,\u201d adds Joel. \u201cThis is for the fans.\u201d\nOver 2,200 gigs and 5 million tracks sold later, they\u2019ve enjoyed countless milestones. 2002 saw them perform at the first-ever Bonnaroo and sell more CDs than any other act on the bill. They became the \u201cfirst group to launch its own single artist streaming service\u201d with UMLive.net, which houses recordings of every gig since 2005. The service has since grown and now lives on through Nugs.net, which is used by the likes of Pearl Jam, Bruce Springsteen and more. They recorded ten tracks in one day at Abbey Road for The London Session in 2015. Notably, 2016\u2019s ZONKEY mashed-up the strangest of bedfellows into a critically acclaimed collection that unites Radiohead and Beck, The Weeknd and Fleetwood Mac, Talking Heads and Bob Marley, Metallica and Gorillaz, and more.\nThat adventurousness extends to their legendary audience immersion experiences. From their initial bar gigs in 1998 to three-nights playing to packed crowds at the legendary Red Rocks Amphitheatre in 2017, the group have simultaneously remained intensely committed to their fans. Beyond intimate backstage encounters and ski trips with their most diehard fans, Umphrey\u2019s McGee instituted the groundbreaking \u201cHeadphones & Snowcones\u201d program, granting fans access to professional headphones and a soundboard-quality mix at shows. At their UMBowl, they empowered the audience to vote on the setlist in real-time and choose favorite improv themes via text message. In 2017, they stepped into another realm altogether by integrating themselves into the VR Platform Endless Riff.\nMost recently, Umphrey\u2019s McGee dropped a 10-track surprise album, it\u2019s you, which serves as a companion piece to it\u2019s not us.

        "raw_content": "Accepting Credit Cards on the Go\nIf you have credit card processing capabilities, you can now accept credit cards on the fly. Providers of merchant accounts are now allowing you to turn your smartphone or tablet to into a credit card processing terminal. How can you do this, how much does it cost and are there any requirements to accept credit cards wherever you are?\nHow Can You Accept Credit Cards on the Fly?\nIf you have one or more merchant accounts, you can connect your account to a device that you attach to your smartphone or mobile device to take credit card payments wherever you are. Customers can now use their credit cards when they purchase paintings at an art festival or when they buy hot dogs from you at the beach or at a youth sporting event. This enables your company to increase sales and cater to those who don\u2019t like to haul cash around when they go out.\nSurprisingly, it doesn\u2019t cost much to have this capability. In addition to standard merchant transaction fees, it costs about $30 or less to accept credit or debit cards on the fly. For most businesses, this cost can be recouped in only one or two transactions. Therefore, it is something that even the smallest of businesses can take advantage of to increase their customer base.\nWhich Companies Qualify For Such a Product?\nThe best part is that any company that wants to use their smartphone or tablet to accept payment via credit card can do so. However, it may be slightly more expensive to use if you don\u2019t make a certain sales threshold each month. Businesses that make less than $3,000 a month tend to pay the most while companies that make more than $10,000 tend to make the most.\nIf you are thinking of ways that your company can expand its customer base, make sure to look into technology that allows you to turn almost any computer into a credit card terminal. This will allow you to make sales wherever you are and wherever your customers are interested in making a purchase.",

We have found several political agendas behind this phenomenon, which have used the terrorism as a means to achieve its goals and objectives. The greater damage of extremism in the Middle East is considering the national belonging not accepted by the religion.\nThe religious radicalism has significantly focused on the issue of abolition the national belonging and identity, which many efforts have been made significantly to erode the nationwide belongingness, while forgetting that the Prophet of Islam \"may god bless him\", was an Arab who did not fall back or abandon Arabism. The Prophet (may god bless him) did not call for people to abandon their nationalities or their home countries, however he emphasized on such belonging as he said in the Hadith: \" loving the Homeland is a part of religious faith,\" and that means that the religion did not emerge as an alternative to the homeland or nationalism, but each has its own track and its private context without being contradictory.\nIslam, which honored humanity in general and Arabs in particular, has used piety as a measure of differentiation and comparison between different nationalities, peoples and tribes, as mentioned in dignified verse (O people, we created you from a male and a female, and made you into nations and tribes in order to interact, the favorite among you for God is the most pious one). Piety does not require giving up their national or human affiliations, because the national identity is predetermined by Allah Almighty who created us and as much as us created this affiliation, and we shall obey accept such divine will.\nCurrents and extremist trends showed lot of efforts in order distant the religious from their homelands and nationalities and even their families and to their families, in order to use them as fuel for religious extremism in the region and impose their radical thoughts as a reality on all the peoples and countries of the region. It is important to note here that we need to wonder: who is taking advantage from those extremist religious trends to abolish the national belongingness? It is clear that there are three parties are benefiting from the abolition of national identity of any Arab specifically:\n- The external enemy who refuses to live in peace.\n- The internal enemy that feeds religious extremism and sectarian strife in the region.\n- Other evil people of various factions and groups.\nAccording to our point of view, we think that religion does not eliminate the sense of national belonging because this is among the blessings of God Almighty and that God is not willing to deprive people from such a blessing. Here, just as that the national belonging and identity are playing significant role in reducing the extremism and fanaticism, it is an addition, an impregnable fence of protection for the individuals against those who seek to drag them and their communities towards the suspicious extremist religious currents.\nSecretary General of the Arab Muslim Council.",

Shawner\nOpen Borders organization that advocates mass immigration\nHelps immigrants obtain U.S. citizenship\nA nonprofit organization founded in October 2001, the Immigrant Workers Citizenship Project (IWCP) works closely with the Immigrant Workers Freedom Ride Coalition. Operating with a full-time staff of six employees, IWCP defines it mission as one of helping newcomers to the United States achieve the \"full dignity of American life\" through U.S. citizenship. To aspiring citizens, the organization offers free English classes, civics classes, assistance with citizenship applications, and help in preparing for the mandatory test and oral interview that are prerequisites for citizenship. Candidates for citizenship pay IWCP $310 to cover the cost of the government's application ($260) and government-mandated fingerprinting ($50). During its first eighteen months of operation, IWCP assisted 1,863 \u201cclients\u201d (an average of about 103 per month). Approximately half of its clientele hails from Mexico. IWCP also has programs to help immigrants and refugees get \"food, clothing, shelter, transportation, [and] the best job possible.\"\nIWCP maintains its offices in an Episcopal Church building in Las Vegas, Nevada, but its influence and political connections extend far beyond that state. The organization seeks to help unions increase their membership and political influence by accelerating the process of residency and citizenship. It has found its primary sponsor in the Culinary Union (the Las Vegas local of the Hotel Employees and Restaurant Employees International, or HERE) and the Union of Needle Trades and Industrial and Textile Employees (UNITE). The Culinary Union has 50,000 members, the vast majority of whom are Hispanic.\nIWCP also registers Hispanic immigrants so as to increase Latino political clout. As Silas Shwarver, the Executive Director of the Project, has candidly stated, \"These are a lot of potential voters.\"\nIWCP was founded by the Rev. Phil Carolin, an Episcopal priest, along with several union representatives. (Aurelio Carrillo, a Vice President of HERE, is on permanent loan from Culinary 226 to assist the IWCP staff. The Culinary Union and HERE have been among the most outspoken in demanding full protection not only for legal immigrants, but also for illegal aliens.) IWCP has likewise sought to make the deportation of illegals a practical as well as a legal impossibility.\nIWCP has received funding from the Arca Foundation, the Blum-Kovler Foundation, the California Endowment, the Carnegie Corporation of New York, the Ford Foundation, the J.M. Kaplan Fund, the Open Society Institute, the Stewart R. Mott Charitable Trust, and the Rockefeller Foundation.",

This is the ninth year of the annual event.\nUniversity of Wisconsin-Madison senior Kevin King, of Batavia, Ill., explained the success of his cancer awareness and prevention efforts in Punjab, India, last summer.\n\"The idea was, if we teach the younger generation, they will go back to their villages and teach others,\" said King, who will graduate in May with majors in neurobiology and life sciences communications and a certificate of leadership.\nKing said younger children in primary schools responded better than university students to the education outreach. \"They soaked it up,\" he said.\nYounger children were more likely to share the information with their parents, and tell them not to smoke. His research will be continued by other UW-Madison students traveling to India this summer, King said.\nAnother student research project explored why Marilyn Monroe and Queen Elizabeth I met such different ends, based on theories of developmental psychology.\nBoth women experienced difficult childhoods marked by interrupted or absent caregivers, abuse, and neglect, noted Lisa Smith, a psychology major at the University of Wisconsin-Baraboo/Sauk County campus.\nBoth women achieved legendary status, Smith noted, but Monroe disregarded her past and failed to develop a solid identity, while the queen integrated her past to make her stronger.\nOther research explored whether perceptions of suicide were different among Catholics and Protestants; how health care delivery in the state Department of Corrections can be improved; and a scholarly evaluation of \"The Simpsons.\"",

        "raw_content": "Idaho icon Bethine Church dies at 90\nSenator\u2019s wife founded the nonprofit Sawtooth Society\nBy THE IDAHO STATESMAN\nBethine Church, the widow of four-term Idaho Sen. Frank Church and the grand dame of Idaho Democrats, died Saturday, her son said.\nIn a Facebook post, Chase Church said Bethine Church died \u201cfrom old age,\u201d and had spent her past two weeks at home on hospice care. She was 90.\nBethine Church was the daughter of Chase Clark, an Idaho governor in the 1940s. She grew up in Mackay and Idaho Falls. Frank Church grew up in Boise. They married in 1947.\nSen. Church was the most influential Idaho politician ever. Bethine was his partner in his public career. He served 24 years in the U.S. Senate, the lone Idaho Democrat to win more than one term. He chaired the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. In 1976, he was a serious candidate for president, looking briefly like the only man able to deny Jimmy Carter the Democratic nomination. He helped pass the Wilderness Act in 1964. He was an early critic of the Vietnam War, and investigated CIA and FBI abuses, forcing reforms that some now question in the post-9/11 era.\nBethine Church had a knack for remembering names, something she learned from her dad.\nSen. Church died in 1984. Bethine contemplated suicide while watching him die of cancer, she told the Statesman in 2006, but Frank Church told her she had responsibilities.\nShe went on to found the Sawtooth Society, which led private conservation efforts in the Sawtooth National Recreation Area; she supported expanding wilderness into the Boulder and White Cloud mountains; and she helped create the Frank Church Institute at BSU that supports a scholar and hosts a world-class annual conference.\nBethine Church had a knack for remembering names, something she learned from her dad, she told the Statesman. \u201cPop taught me that everybody, from the waitress to the people working in the kitchen, is as important as the people sitting on the dais.\u201d\nFor Church, praise from colleagues\nFrom Franklin D. Roosevelt to Barack Obama, Bethine Church\u2019s sunny but dogged personality left an indelible mark on Idaho politics.\nShe helped elect her father, Chase Clark, governor in 1940 as FDR won his third term. Last year, had Idaho favored a Democrat, she would have cast one of four votes in the Electoral College for the president.\n\u201cThat\u2019s a big sweep of history,\u201d said Rod Gramer, who co-wrote the 1994 biography of her husband, the late Sen. Frank Church. \u201cAnd she wasn\u2019t just a spectator. She lived it.\u201d\nAn uncle, Barzilla Clark, also was governor; a cousin, D. Worth Clark, a U.S. senator. Her husband was the only Idaho Democrat ever re-elected to the Senate, serving from 1957 to 1981. \u201cHer family was the Kennedys or the Bushes of Idaho politics,\u201d Gramer said.\nHer walls were crowded with intimate photos of the Churches with the famed and powerful: Presidents Kennedy, Johnson and Carter; first ladies Lady Bird Johnson, Pat Nixon and Barbara Bush; Juan Carlos of Spain, Golda Meier of Israel and Fidel Castro of Cuba; Marlon Brando, Charlton Heston, Jimmy Durante and John Wayne; and masters of the Senate including J. William Fulbright, Jacob Javits, Richard Lugar and Mike Mansfield.\nHer death late Saturday at age 90 in her own bed in her southeast Boise home prompted tributes Sunday from across the spectrum. GOP Gov. Butch Otter said Church was \u201ca great ambassador\u201d for Idaho \u201cwhose life exemplified civic virtue.\u201d Former Democratic Gov. Cecil Andrus hailed her work on conservation issues and called her \u201ca force of nature.\u201d\n\u201cIdaho has lost a great friend and advocate,\u201d said Republican U.S. Sen. Mike Crapo. \u201cBethine had a way to mix civility with politics that is too often forgotten on the national scene. I will miss her input and charm, and I join with all Idahoans in mourning the passing of this Idaho legend.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "28 THE NEW YORKER, APRIL 9, 2018 supersedes her worries. Since , she has run SOC Films (the name is taken from her initials), which hires young college graduates to work on creative features and educational films that in- form women of their rights where di- vorce, sexual harassment, property in- heritance, and filing police reports are concerned. The company often loses money, but she doesn't mind. \"The goal is breaking even and doing proj- ects that challenge everyone,\" she said. In , Obaid-Chinoy set out to make the country's first full-length an- imated film, a superhero movie in which a group of Pakistani kids fight to save their home, the Town of Light, from thugs. She hoped the film would pro- vide children with new, non-Western role models. \"Nobody wanted to give me money,\" she said. She had to make most of the film, paying for it herself, before investors would commit funds. The film, called \"Three Brave Ones,\" came out in and was a commer- cial success in Pakistan; a sequel was released the following year. Obaid- Chinoy now directs an animation stu- dio, the first one in the country to be run by a woman. Her lead producer, Kamran Khan, who is in his thirties and wears graphic T-shirts, said that former colleagues discouraged him from working there, complaining about the villainous men in Obaid-Chinoy's films and claiming that she didn't even live in the country. \"I've never seen a woman like her in Pakistan,\" he said. \"I don't know when she sleeps.\" This year, HBO Films will release a docu- mentary, co-directed by Obaid-Chinoy, on the financial exploitation of college athletes, which she describes as \"the dream of college education and col- lege sports, and the reality.\" A few of Obaid-Chinoy's friends wonder if she will eventually run for o ce. \"She now sees herself as having the back of all women in Pakistan,\" Masoomeh Hilal told me. During my visit, a female member of Parliament, Ayesha Gulalai, accused the Pakistani politician and former professional crick- eter Imran Khan of sexual harassment. (He has denied the claim.) Public opin- ion was virulently against her; she was called a liar and a gold digger. Obaid- Chinoy seemed to take the a air per- sonally. \"The benefit of the doubt in this country is always given to a man,\" she said. The Pakistani novelist Mohammed Hanif has agreed that criticism of Obaid-Chinoy reflects the patriarchal outlook that permeates Pakistani so- ciety. \"Even in these educated circles, men, at best, are patronizing about women,\" he said. \"Sharmeen's work should be available in Pakistan for a wider audience, and then we can have a debate about the merits of her work. Here people are quick to judge her as a panderer without actually watching her work, out of misplaced ideas of na- tionalism and national honor. Other- wise, it's just like saying, 'Sharmeen is so ambitious.' Well, show me a film- maker who isn't.\" On the afternoon that Obaid- Chinoy visited the addiction clinic in Peshawar, she joined Parveen Azam Khan, the doctor who opened the cen- ter, in , as she travelled to another clinic. Today, she runs several facilities that provide free treatment. Khan, who is seventy-nine, has an elegant bearing and an assured manner of speaking that suggests that she is un- accustomed to being interrupted. Obaid- Chinoy was interviewing her for a book project on \"grassroots heroes\"; she had profiled Khan before, for a series on community leaders that she made for Pakistani TV. SOC describes one of these projects---the six-part \"Ho Ya- qeen,\" or \"To Have Faith\"---as an at- tempt to tell \"the stories of individu- als who have spearheaded e orts for a brighter Pakistan.\" In the interview with Khan, Obaid- Chinoy needed to elicit a scene that would personalize the issue of drug addiction. According to the United Nations, Pakistan has among the high- est rates of heroin addiction in the world. But people often remain silent about drug use, even when it a ects family and friends. This afternoon, Obaid-Chinoy had something partic- ular in mind. She told me that Khan's two sons had both died mysteriously at the age of twenty-nine, ten years apart. \"Dr. Parveen,\" Obaid-Chinoy said. \"You've been doing this for a very long time. Is there anything in any of the clinics, any story, that has a very dra- matic arc to it? You know, there was some addiction, recovery, and some sort of resolution.\" Khan was evasive. Many people came through the clinic, she said, and while it was hard to keep track of all the pa- tients, it had been rewarding to help them. Obaid-Chinoy urged her to be more specific. \"Out of all the chil- dren . . .\" Khan said, and thought for a moment. \"Their stories are all very touching and very motivating. I can't think of any special one.\" Obaid-Chinoy reminded her of a boy, abandoned by his family because he was H.I.V.-positive, who left the clinic and became a drug dealer. \"Oh, yes,\" Khan said. \"We tried to bring him back into treatment, but he refused. He said, 'I have no life, any- how, so, this way, I feel very important, and I'm looking after myself.' We're still working on him.\" She returned to broader concerns. \"Eighty per cent of the global opiates come from Afghan- istan, and it's a very porous border,\" she said. \"We just can't seem to stop it.\" \"I completely understand the geo- politics,\" Obaid-Chinoy said. \"But as somebody who has devoted her life to rehabilitating anyone who has been a ected by drugs---this boy came in, he spent time, you tried to reconcile him with his family. Not only did he go back on the streets but he became a drug dealer. How does that make you feel? Does that make you feel a little hopeless?\" \"The fact that he was H.I.V.-positive made things more complicated,\" Khan said, in the tone of a clinician consult- ing her notes. \"But, again, we have so many like this.\" The car turned onto a street densely edged with trees. In the dappled light, Khan suddenly began to talk about her sons. They were \"handsome, brilliant,\" she said softly. \"My sons had every- thing in life---they had the best of ed- ucation.\" She was silent for a moment. \"You can't dwell on it, because it's too painful. This work is the only way I can deal with life.\" As we neared the clinic, another question occurred to Obaid-Chinoy. \"Do you think that, while you're sav- ing people, they're also saving you?\" she asked. \"You're so right,\" Khan said.",

        "raw_content": "A yearlong chat ends\nZe Frank's online show was a grand-scale viewer-participation experiment\nMarch 18, 2007|Alex Pham | Times Staff Writer\nNew York \u2014 Peering down from an airplane last spring, Ze Frank decided to turn the Earth into a sandwich.\nAfter he landed, the comedian, who was making Internet videos years before YouTube existed, challenged his audience to place two pieces of bread at exactly opposite ends of the globe. They did, and he posted videos and photos of their exploits on his website, www.zefrank.com.\n\"The Show With Ze Frank\" was a yearlong online experiment in interactive entertainment that was to end Saturday. And it's an example of how one guy with a camera in his living room can take viewer participation made popular through television shows such as \"American Idol\" to absurd levels.\nFrank, a wide-eyed 34-year-old New Yorker with a drawn face, isn't afraid to hand control to his fans, who include movie stars such as Jack Black and Ben Stiller.\nHe played chess with viewers, performed scripts they wrote and told them a bedtime story about a four-legged duck when he was asked for one.\n\"We have this incredible ability to communicate with each other,\" Frank said. \"I want to play around with it, see what this mass audience is really capable of.\"\nFans say his give and take with them harked back to the days of vaudeville, when performers improvised and fed off the energy of an audience. That type of interaction can make entertaining online very different from TV and movies.\n\"He understands that this is a social medium,\" said Terrell Russell, a graduate student studying online culture at the University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill. \"He engages with his audience and invites them in for a conversation.\"\nFrank hatches much of his own material, such as this line from a show dedicated to wasting time: \"A good procrastination should feel like you're inserting lots and lots of commas into the sentence of your life.\"\nAlthough the show generally ran only about three minutes long, it could be hard to digest. It used foul language. Frank posted it at different times each day. It was full of inside jokes that discouraged new viewers from jumping in midway through the year; for those who wanted to try to catch up, his website offered an archive, which will stay available.\nStill, he hooked some of the biggest names in comedy.\n\"Ze Frank is a rare gem, a brilliant comedian with an artistic undertaste,\" Black said. \"He might be my hero.\"\nFrank didn't set out to be anybody's hero. He just wanted some friends to come to his birthday party.\nIn 2001, he posted a video of himself dancing in goofy Charlie Chaplin fashion, then e-mailed a link to it as a party invitation to 17 friends. Within days, hundreds of thousands of people flooded his website to watch \"How to Dance Properly\" -- so many that his Internet service provider billed him several thousand dollars for the excess traffic.\nFor Frank, it felt like discovering that there was life out in cyberspace -- and he desperately wanted it to talk back. He quit his job as a Web designer and began what he called his \"traffic junkie\" days, creating online games, cartoons and videos of his cat Annie to attract visitors.\nNothing he did, however, reproduced the traffic spike generated by his dance video. That taught Frank one of his first lessons about the Internet -- you've got to get lucky. His video happened to be at the right place at the right time, when millions of ordinary people were becoming more comfortable with the Internet and were open to sharing something fun with friends.\nMore difficult was building the kind of community that engages in the lasting, meaningful conversation that Frank craved.\nSometimes that conversation had to do with paper clips. Early on, Frank created a contest called \"When Office Supplies Attack\" and received more than 500 entries. People e-mailed photos of themselves pretending to be throttled by paper clips, devoured by copy machines and drowned by water coolers.\nFor his video project, he delivered many segments gazing wide-eyed into the camera.\n\"What better way to connect with people than by staring and talking straight at them?\" he jested in one show. \"Don't blink -- that's one less connection you could have made.\"\nHe posted his show Monday through Friday. Saturday's final episode, marking the show's anniversary, would be his 250th.\n\"I think it's kind of amazing that one guy is doing this every day, with such energy and a real point of view about what is going on in the world,\" Stiller said. \"I'm always interested to see what he has processed from the news that day.\"\nFrank's monologue was done on the fly. He woke up each morning in varying stages of anxiety over what he'd say. After reading the news, he cobbled together an array of odd bits.\nOne recent morning, he was fixated on two stories, one about an iguana and another about a giant baby.\n\"Today, we're going to talk about iguanas!\" Frank said as he paced in his one-bedroom Brooklyn walk-up, smoking Marlboro Lights and sucking down Starbucks coffee.\nFrank Zappa's '200 Motels' checking in at Disney Hall\nYouTube channel AwesomenessTV attracts outside funding\nA happy day for Pooh",

        "raw_content": "Bhavya and I love to write fiction. We attempted to write stories based on words on every day in April, and it was fun. For a few days of the Ultimate Blog Challenge in July, we are again trying to write fiction, but this time, we are keeping the name of the central character the same. This is Part 2 of a series, and the character name is Nina.\nPrevious Parts: Part 1\nUBC DAY 9 \u2013 IT\u2019S ALL IN A NAME {PART 2}\nAs she struggled to keep her balance, Javed recovered from his momentary fluster. He reached out and grabbed her hand, pulled her into him. Her hair fell into his face as they stood there, catching their breath. Those brown eyes which had fear in them a moment ago now had a twinkle in them. He thought they looked relieved.\n\u201cI\u2019m sorry. I didn\u2019t see you,\u201d they both blurted out at the same time.\nJaved pushed the door open and they both went in. Near the door, a couch had been kept for visitors to sit. She sat on it, and Javed offered her a sip of water from his bottle.\n\u201cIt\u2019s fine. I was lost in my own thoughts. So were you, I guess,\u201d he told, managing a smile.\n\u201cI\u2019m Sr. HR Officer here. Actually, I used to be.\u201d\nThe smile on his face faded.\n\u201cOf all the people to run into first, I pick the one I\u2019m replacing,\u201d he thought to himself.\n\u201cI don\u2019t know why he\u2019s doing this. Firing me, I mean. I\u2019ve always turned in my reports on time. The clients are happy with the communication. I\u2019ve not had a proper promotion in more than two years, but I\u2019ve never complained. I\u2019ve been here five years now. When I had the chance to move, I didn\u2019t take it. I felt this was the place to, you know. It was a small company, but I was happy. I had time for my kids. I could even get them here when I wanted. Now I don\u2019t know where to go, what to do. He\u2019s not giving me the time to look for other opportunities\u2026\u201d\nJaved just sat next to her and nodded. She wouldn\u2019t take a breath, and he didn\u2019t know what to say to her if she did. The guy who had taken his interview had mentioned something about special circumstances why he had to start immediately, but he hadn\u2019t specified what those circumstances were. It wasn\u2019t his place to ask, so he had kept quiet then.\n\u201cStupid me, I\u2019m blabbering all of this to a stranger. Maybe I do need to go to a psychologist. Feeling very weak-hearted\u2026 and that\u2019s not who I am usually. I\u2019m strong. Not physically of course. My friend feels I\u2019m so thin that I might be blown away by a strong gust of wind. But I\u2019ve never been flustered by these changes in life. I guess it\u2019s because I\u2019ve had time to take it in. Coming in early today to find out I\u2019m fired was definitely not on the cards.\u201d\nShe stood up, thanked him for saving her from a fall earlier, and walked out. He could hear her muttering to herself till she reached the ground floor.\nTurning around, he came face to face with the new boss.\n\u201cWhat did Nina tell you?\u201d\n\u201cWhat a grouch!\u201d Javed thought, looking at the new man.\n\u201cNothing\u2026 nothing at all. Just some blabber about her being fired and needing a psychologist and such. I didn\u2019t understand at all. She didn\u2019t even tell me her name,\u201d he replied, and as an afterthought, he added, \u201cWhat a dumb broad!\u201d\nThe last line seemed to do the trick. He saw a flicker of a smile cross the boss\u2019 lips, and throwing an arm around the shoulder, he led Javed into the office.\n\u201cThis is Anamika. You might have met her after the interview. She\u2019s my PA. Our PA, rather. With the market being as dismal as it is, we\u2019re cutting costs and having one less PA helps that much into minimizing salary costs. She\u2019ll make sure you are settled in at your office.\u201d\nThe girl led him into an office, which still had the nameplate \u201cNina Sen\u201d on the door. He saw Anamika quickly take it down and put it away. She turned around to face him, a sheepish smile on her face.\n\u201cCan I get you anything, sir?\u201d\nJaved nodded.\n\u201cTell me everything about the previous HR officer. Nina Sen, right?\u201d\nThe lady had intrigued him. In one conversation, he felt drawn toward her life. After all, she was his predecessor. But he felt a bit of hesitation on Anamika\u2019s part.\n\u201cNothing much to say, sir. I joined recently. She was a nice lady, quite efficient at her work. Only time I\u2019ve seen her take leave is when the second child was born.\u201d\nHer voice turned into a whisper.\n\u201cShe was like her name, sir. Strong minded and able to take anything the boss told. And he does have a mouth on him, sir. But she interfered in places she ought not to. I think that\u2019s why she got jilted.\u201d\nJaved didn\u2019t know what to think. Was it another omen? Another name not living up to its meaning. And was Anamika\u2019s revelation a warning for him? Keep away from where you\u2019re not wanted.\nA pile of files was on the desk, and Anamika sat behind them on a chair, ready to explain their contents to him, so he could get started. The first file was of personnel details.\nThe first bio-data in it was that of The Boss.\nI\u2019m liking how you are playing with the names here. Does the lady PA, Ms. Anonymous too have a big role to play?\nShe could. I don\u2019t really know yet da, Bhavz. \ud83d\ude42 And now it\u2019s all kind of snowballed na with my miserable week.\nwaiting waiting\u2026 \ud83d\ude42\nLong wait perhaps, Sims \ud83d\ude41\nOh more suspense. I wonder why she got fired, also what is in that file. Am sure he will find something interesting there. Nina reminded me of some one though :P.\nYeah. Even I don\u2019t know what to do in part 3 yet. A dismal week has left me marooned 4 days behind. \ud83d\ude41 But the talkative lady is kind of like a non stop blabbermouth I have recently befriended, Jb.\nIs the Boss going to be the villain next? I think so. Why do you keep me hanging in here? Waiting for the next one, Leo \ud83d\ude42\nThat\u2019s kind of obvious na, Aathira \ud83d\ude42 His character has already taken that direction here. I too am waiting for the next one, but now tired.",

Alec DeBruler followed with his second to make it 3-0. Avery Jannin also left the yard in the opener, his fourth of the season.\nAidan Mlachak too the loss to fall to 1-3 on the season.\nThe Maroon and Gold will be back in action Tuesday for a non-conference regional twin bill against Indiana (Pa.).

The simplicity of the site is what I like the most.\nI think an improvement to the page can be her first page. Although I like how simple it is, and the pictures, I have no clue on the purpose of the blog. Is it a coaching blog? I'm unaware of what the profession of the individual is until I navigate to other buttons. I would put some pictures that indicate the educator's interest.\nI feel DeAnna presents herself as both personal and professional.

        "raw_content": "Haymakers is transforming the way people approach food\nTexas Center for Proton Therapy brings innovative cancer treatment to Dallas-Fort Worth\nProton therapy, shown here at the Children's Hospital in Philadelphia, uses a steel gantry and powerful magnets. The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia\nThe Texas Center for Proton Therapy is scheduled to open in 2016. Photo courtesy of Texas Center for Proton Therapy\nIn the world of cancer treatment, innovation is always on the agenda. Although the M.D. Anderson Cancer Center in Houston has put Texas on the map for cancer treatment, Irving is joining the esteemed hospital's ranks by opening the Texas Center for Proton Therapy. Scheduled to start accepting patients in 2016, the $105 million center is breaking ground in Las Colinas on May 15 thanks to Texas Oncology.\nProton Therapy is a relatively new form of radiation treatment that uses a proton beam to damage the DNA of cancer cells. Gary Barlow, the center's director, has been working with this advanced treatment for about seven years in Florida and has more than 25 years of experience in radiation oncology.\nProton Therapy is a highly advanced form of radiation treatment that damages the DNA of cancer cells.\nBarlow says that proton therapy is especially beneficial for children with cancer.\n\"Their bodies are still developing and growing and are very sensitive to radiation,\" Barlow says. \"This highly targeted, precise therapy destroys cancer cells while minimizing damage to surrounding tissue.\"\nProton therapy is also used to treat cancer in sensitive areas where surgery is not always an option, such as the brain, neck, spine and eyes.\nThe 63,000-square-foot facility will have an onsite laboratory, three proton therapy treatment rooms, CT and MRI imaging technology, and a team of more than 50 healthcare professionals.\nDr. Scott Cheek is a radiation oncologist with Texas Oncology. Cheek says there is no one in Dallas-Fort Worth currently treating with proton therapy. In fact, there are only 11 proton treatment facilities in all of North America. The closest ones to Dallas are in Oklahoma City and Houston.\nThe Texas Center for Proton Therapy will provide the most advanced form of proton therapy: pencil beam scanning.\n\"By avoiding normal healthy tissue with radiation, you reduce the side effects and help patients maintain their quality of life both during and after the treatment,\" Cheek says.\nThe center will be able to treat up to 100 patients a day. With an average course of treatment from six to eight weeks, the location choice was important as well.\nBarlow says Irving was a natural fit because of its proximity to Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport as well as DART and other amenities such as hotels and dining options.\n\"Combining advanced technology with genuine, personal support is a hallmark of Texas Oncology\u2019s community-based approach to cancer treatment \u2014 and one of the reasons that brought me to Texas,\" Barlow says.\nUT Southwestern Medical School also has plans to join the proton therapy ranks with a future facility near Children's Medical Center in Dallas.",

        "raw_content": "In one of the training sessions I\u2019ve attended, our trainer asked us \u201cWhat will you feel when a student asks you a question you don\u2019t know?\u201d All of us didn\u2019t answer this question, but instead we jumped to the next question before he asked it. This question was \u201cWhat will you do when a student asks you a question you don\u2019t know?\u201d The answer of the first question can be \u201cI feel furious.\u201d The answer of the second question is that \u201cI pretend to be calm.\u201d\nI remember this situation when I read the second task of our project. That\u2019s to write about some issues which technology might help with. Every time I write about a certain issue that I face in my teaching, I find technology precedes that issue. But, I tried very hard to forget about it in this week and write just some questions that can be signs for integrating technology as a solution.\nThrough reading my colleagues\u2019 posts, I\u2019ve found that we have common issues and problems even we live far from each other. The problem is the problem everywhere. Among these issues that all of us face in our teaching are the lack of materials and plagiarism as Liliya mentioned. Another issue is how to motivate students intrinsically to learn and mater all skills of English language as Juliet & Camelia pointed out. Stephen also mentioned many issues either related to teachers (e.g., tracking students\u2019 progress, communication with parents & lack of continuity form one day to the next) or students (e.g., lack of time for writing, group discussion communication & difficulty to express their wants, needs \u2026 etc easily). For me, I mentioned some of the issues that need some sort of change, e.g., planning lessons, tracking students\u2019 progress by portfolio, motivation of students, difficulty of writing & pronunciation correction.\nI\u2019m sure if we think about integrating technology in our teaching, all of these issues and problems will be on the way of solution.\nThese words lead us to the idea of designing technology-enhanced lesson plans as a step towards making considerable change in all aspects of our job. To be honest, I spent more time and effort accomplishing this task. And at the end, I haven\u2019t found a huge difference between the traditional lesson plan and that plan integrated technology. As Krajka (2000) mentioned in his article http://iteslj.org/Techniques/Krajka-WritingUsingNet.html it adds a flavor to teaching, but what a flavor? I never forget my training sessions as a trainer. I downloaded wonderful materials and prepared valuable websites to use during the session. In addition to many PowerPoint files to make information more interesting. I do this all the time with my trainees. I never forget their faces smiling and involving in the tasks from the very beginning to the end. However, we should prepare plan \u201cB\u201d as an alternative if this technology became an enemy not a friend.\nI enjoyed reading your reflective comments regarding week 4 of our course. I too find it interesting that despite our geographical distribution around the globe, we share many of the same issues and problems in our classrooms. When I first returned to Canada after teaching in Taiwan I gave this observation of some considerable thought. Although my teaching position in Taiwan was very different from my teaching position in Canada, I faced similar challenges in both. The realization was that regardless of where I find myself, students are students. They may differ significantly in the way they look, where they are from, how old they are, or what they know, but deep down they are fundamentally the same. Thus, regardless of where I find myself, I realize that teaching is teaching.\nThanks to you and all of our classmates I found out that we share quite a lot similar problems, issues, and thoughts. Integrating technology into our classroom might be the solution. As Stephen said, students will always be students. Teaching is teaching.\nThanks for visiting my blog and delicious page. You said you liked the link about songs. I am a fan of using songs in the classroom. As you may know I teach Social Studies (World History) and love to use songs to teach. Here are some songs you might find interesting when dealing with certain issues: Eagles,\"The Last Resort\": Immigration, Treatment of Native Americans; Dire Straits, \"Telegraph Road\": Industrialization; Peter Gabriel, \"Biko\": about the death of anti apartheid activist Stephen Biko in 1977 by the South African police; and Kansas, \"America\": lots of US History references.",

        "raw_content": "134: ONE OF THE BIGGEST DECEPTIONS OF THIS WORLD\nWe preach of Zion, but continue to march deeper and deeper towards Babylon.\nThis was the first year that across the country, Thanksgiving Day turned into a day of Shopping. Instead of Black Friday.. we now have Grey Thursday. Employees of the big department stores had to work, since the store opened for the first time for thousands and thousands of shoppers to buy gifts for Christmas right after having Thanksgiving Dinner..\nI didn't write about this sooner, but I felt I still needed to post something about this. I am sure there is a huge range of opinions out there on Santa Claus. Sure he is a good-intentioned symbol of love and giving. But I have come to the conclusion that he is probably one of the biggest deceptions in this world that we tell our children. We go to great lengths to do all we can to make our children believe in Santa.( leaving behind crumbs of cookies that are left out, making reindeer tracks in the snow, etc etc) I think more effort goes into teaching our children that Santa is real than we do in teaching our children that Jesus Christ is real.\nIt has almost been a year since The Church of Jesus Christ of Latterday Saints held the red ribbon cutting ceremony for the opening of their multi-billion dollar mall. On that day, the First Presidency and Presidency Bishopric along with the Utah's Governor and other high officials exclaimed, \"Let's Go Shopping!\".\nHow fitting then to build at almost the exact spot of the ribbon ceremony, a 30-foot-tall \"Santa workshop\" as the location for Santa Claus to welcome the children to sit on his lap. (See below middle). It was advertised in the news that Santa would magically appear on the rooftops of City Creek Center on November 15 before joining the crowds near his \"Lantern cottage \" where he will visit with families through December 24, 2012. (See below video).\nHere is the video of Santa Claus's grand arrival to the LDS Shopping Center at City Creek.\nAddendum: For those who are deaf, a \"Sign Language\" Santa was available at City Creek Nov. 29 from 2-6 p.m., so deaf children can visit with Santa. Also if you wanted to take pictures with Santa with your pets you could come on December 6, from 6-9 PM. Also, to make these convenient so you didn't have to stand in line, you could register at the check-in booth and then receive a text message when it was your turn. All of this information was from the City Creek Center website.\nI would like to write more about this, but I think I will leave it at that for now.",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Health News \u00bb In teen friendships, misery does love company: Study finds teens with similar levels of anxiety and depression are more likely to remain friends\nA new study on adolescent friendships offers support for the belief that misery really does love company. Researchers from Florida Atlantic University and collaborators examined the degree to which internalizing symptoms \u2014 anxiety, depression, social withdrawal, and submissiveness \u2014 predicted the dissolution of teen friendships. Do friendships end because of one child\u2019s mental health problems or do they end because of differences between friends on the degree to which each friend suffers from these problems?\nThe study, published in the Journal of Research on Adolescence, was co-authored by Brett Laursen, Ph.D., a professor in the Department of Psychology in FAU\u2019s Charles E. Schmidt College of Science, Amy C. Hartl, who received her Ph.D. at FAU, and Antonius H. N. Cillessen, Ph.D., a professor of psychology in the Behavioural Science Institute at Radboud University. Lead author of the study was Fanny-Alexandra Guimond, Ph.D., an assistant professor of psychology at the University of Ottawa.\nThe study sample included 397 adolescents (194 boys, 203 girls) in 499 same-sex friendships, who were followed from grade seven (median age 13), through to the end of high school in grade 12. The students were living in Connecticut at the time of the study. Discrete-time survival analyses were conducted with grade seven peer, teacher, and self-reports of internalizing symptoms as predictors of the timing of friendship dissolution.\nResults found no evidence that individual internalizing symptoms predicted friendship dissolution, even at extreme or clinical levels.\n\u201cAn important takeaway from our study is that children\u2019s personal struggles need not adversely impact their social relationships,\u201d said Laursen. \u201cMental health issues do not necessarily ruin chances of making and maintaining worthwhile friendships.\u201d\nInstead, the results indicated that the more friends differed on anxiety symptoms and depressive symptoms, the greater the incidence of friendship instability. Therefore, youth who resembled one another were more likely to remain friends from one year to the next.\n\u201cBehavioral similarity is tremendously important to a friendship,\u201d said Laursen. \u201cShared feelings and shared experiences are the glue that holds a friendship together.\u201d\nIn most respects, boys and girls did not differ in the factors that predicted friendship instability. There was one notable exception: differences on submissiveness increased friendship instability for boys, but decreased friendship instability for girls.\n\u201cCompared with girls, boys are more competitive and confrontational in interactions with friends, suggesting that dissimilarity on submissiveness may be a liability when it comes to the activities that many boys prefer such as sports and games,\u201d said Laursen. \u201cCompared to boys, girls tend to favor extended dyadic exchanges, and so they may respond to submissive behavior with support and empathy, which may strengthen friendship ties.\u201d\nThe authors conclude that individual levels of internalizing difficulties are not irrelevant to a friendship, but that there may be need to reconsider friendship dissolution models from a relationship perspective, shifting the emphasis away from characteristics that make individuals less desirable partners toward characteristics that make partners dissimilar, and therefore less compatible.\n\u201cWhen children are having difficulties making and keeping friends, it may be important to remind them about the importance of being similar,\u201d said Laursen. \u201cToo often, dissimilar friends become former friends.\u201d\nTagged Child Psychology, Depression, Gender Difference, mental health, Psychiatry, psychology, relationships, Social Psychology\nAdoption Event in California Helps More Animals Find Loving Homes\n10 Signs You Have An Iron Deficiency\nPneumococcal disease: Causes, how it spreads, and symptoms\nItaly Has Reversed Its Stance On Mandatory Vaccination, Despite A Recent Rise In The Outbreak Of Measles\nGot a Cough That Just Won't Go Away?

This book was a very story-like telling of Hitchcock's life and brought in a lot of other biographer's work in a way that I thought balanced the picture of the various rumors and controversies. I found the fights that Hitchcock had throughout his career with censors, and the compromises that were made in the films to deal with those censors, especially interesting. I would have liked to know more about Alma Hitchcock. It is clear that she was incredibly important to Hitchcock, both personally and professionally, but it isn't really clear who she was as an individual. There is a very detailed filmography (and a separate listing of TV credits) included which tells you where Hitchcock's cameo is in each film.\nLabels: nonfiction, Patrick McGilligan, reviews, tea and books 2012",

If you would like to submit a testimonial for display on this website, please contact sensei.\nOur son and daughter have been attending Aikido classes for about 4 years now, and we are so grateful for what they have experienced at BigRock Aikikai. They learn how to participate in a community while at the same time striving towards goals and achievements. The peer-to-peer style of learning at BigRock gives them many opportunities to teach others the skills they have acquired, reinforcing their own development and their progress. The sense of achievement our kids feel at Aikido is exciting and continuous. Steve Sensei does a wonderful job of providing opportunities for students to take on leadership roles each and every class, preparing them for greater responsibilities and success. On top of the martial arts skills they are learning at BigRock, our kids learn about culture and about respecting others.\n- Parents of Sally and Hanzo\nWhen you first come into the dojo & see a class, you\u2019ll notice how all the kids are sitting & listening to Sensei Steve. You'll feel their excitement & readiness to learn. Then when the active training begins, you\u2019ll see how much fun they have, & how hard they all work. You\u2019ll see the teen students training the younger ones. You\u2019ll see all the kids smiling & having a great time while learning Aikido. You\u2019ll see how amazingly well the classes are run - from start to finish. After class? The kids come off the mats still beaming. Our son (now 18) took Aikido for many years, starting at age 6. Now our daughter (9) is just beginning & enjoys it as much as our son did! Sensei Steve is incredibly patient, kind & encouraging with his students. It\u2019s a safe & happy environment for them to learn in, as he instills in them a humble confidence. He keeps close track of each student & where they are at with their Aikido skills. He has so many trainees, & yet remembers each one & their unique details. He truly cares & it shows!\n- Anona\nOur Daughters 13, and 11, have been in Aikido since September 2016 and they have loved every minute of their Aikido Classes. They look forward to every class! Sensei Steve has created a very positive, inclusive program that instills confidence and focus. Sensei Steve has the perfect combination of patience, kindness, encouragement and humour putting everyone at ease and making every class so much fun! While giving individual help to all the students and making everyone feel important and special, our daughters have learned so much. Sensei Steve is an excellent teacher, taking the time to help each student master the skills. We are thrilled to have found BigRock Aikido, it is an incredible school with an incredible leader! Under the direction of Sensei Steve, Aikido has been a wonderful experience for our Daughters!\nOur family has been a part of BigRock Aikikai for almost 8 years, and we are very grateful for this experience. When I was first introduced to aikido by a friend, I knew that this fit well with my own personal beliefs. I wanted my son to gain the confidence and focus that martial arts can bring but did not want to be involved in a competitive aggressive environment. Aikido sounded perfect. I now have 2 sons in aikido, and I do the parent program twice a week. Our dojo is a place where we feel inspired, strong and also safe. Steve Sensei is an incredible instructor, who is always patient yet somehow still pushes the kids to achieve their best. BigRock Aikikai has far surpassed the expectations I had 8 years ago and I would highly recommend it to anyone considering martial arts training.\n- Kim Litwin\nI knew Aikido was for me since the day I started; it's been something I've been incredibly passionate about. It's helped me to learn and grow as a person in all aspects. Aikido has strengthened my mind, body, and spirit throughout the time I've been practicing. Classes are both physically and mentally challenging. I always feel great after class knowing I've worked hard and learned something new. The Instructor Training Program has given me the chance to work with children and share my knowledge with others. The buki, or weapons program has improved my speed, accuracy and memory. The Character Development Program, which becomes mandatory for higher belts, has reminded me to help others and has given me the chance to volunteer within my community. Steve Sensei was very supportive when my ankle kept me from coming to class. He allowed me to modify how I was practicing so I could participate. His support kept me coming to class during my recovery and I want to thank him for that. He is a great teacher who has had a very positive impact on me. I've met so many amazing people during the time I've been at BigRock Aikikai. Joining gave me another family I didn't know I had.\n- Shaylyn, brown belt, 14, practicing for 4 years\nAs a parent, one of my greatest joys in life is watching my children take part in activities that they love. My wife and I tried a number of activities and extra-curricular sports for my son Erik, but there wasn't the passion in his eyes until we found the martial arts school, BigRock Aikikai. The quality of instruction, the camaraderie of the dojo, and the skill of both the sensei and his helpers is truly unique. I am not joking when I say that after EVERY class, Erik comes home and says, \"Man, I love Aikido!\" I'm so happy that we've found something he's so passionate about excelling at, and even more so that we found a place where that passion can be guided and grown. I would, without hesitation, recommend fully and highly BigRock Aikikai.\n- Clarke Schroeder\nI started practicing Aikido in August of 2002 when our dojo was located at the South Fishcreek Recreation centre. When I started, I wasn't really sure what to expect. I had done some research into the various martial arts available in Calgary, and really seemed to connect most with the philosophy of Aikido. After my first class though, I was truly hooked. The dojo really is a family, and I was welcomed by everyone who participated in classes regardless of their experience or rank or skill-level in the art. As my work at that time often involved travel, I was able to participate in classes in the art all over North America, and found that wherever I went, there seemed to be an Aikido dojo nearby. As the years progressed, through diligent effort and lots of work on the part of the instructors, I was able to see real improvement in my abilities, to the point that I was asked to help teach children's classes.\nI've now been practicing for just over 11 years, and find that Aikido has become a very big part of my life, both in the dojo and 'in the real world'. I want to thank Steve Sensei, and the other senior students for taking the time to work with me over the years - you've helped me to become a better person and I truly appreciate all that you've done for the community as a whole. This is a great club to practice with, and I heartily recommend it to anyone interesting in finding a safe, interesting and challenging place to work out both your mind and your body.\nI began taking Aikido this year and have participated for some 5 months now. As an otherwise sedentary adult of 59 years of age, I have found Aikido to be gentle enough to allow me to fully participate, yet pushing me to improve stretching, and to focus on the basics. Sensei Steve has a excellent teaching style that encourages even these old bones to move in ways they haven't in years. I would encourage anyone to come and join us, no matter your age. It's never too late!\nAs a parent of three children who have participated in Aikido training with BigRock Aikikai since 2003, I can't express highly enough the positive impact that this program has had on our family. Sensei Steve Erickson has created a children's Aikido program that goes far beyond the realm of sport. While learning new skills, students are developing patience, focus, and gaining self esteem through leadership skills - even junior students assist others in learning new techniques. The Character Development Program (CDP), which Steve Sensei developed, positively encourages all participants to be involved in their home, school, and community, as well as at the dojo. Through personal initiatives, many of Steve Sensei's CDP students have made a difference, and have been honored in their communities for their contributions. I am equally impressed with the accessibility and inclusion for students with special needs within the BigRock Aikido children's programs.\nAikido has been a tremendous experience for my girls. I believe the physical and mental challenges it provides has been instrumental in building their self-confidence. The mentorship aspect of it has helped nurture their self-esteem and helped them to practice showing respect and patience for others. Even though they are often tired after a practice session, they can\u00edt wait to get to the next one.\n- Loreli, Mother of Morgan, Kaley, and Gina, with BigRock Aikikai since 2004\nI like Aikido, it's a good sport, it helps me with hockey, skiing and swimming. It makes me strong and more flexible and I have lots of fun doing the races and the games. I've got a very good sensei named Steve Sensei, he makes the class fair and fun.\n- Mitchell, Purple Belt, 8, practicing for 4 years\nI like the way Aikido strengthens my body. It is tiring, but we have fun doing our drills and laps. Some of the techniques are really fun to do too. I like the games we play at the end and being with all my Aikido friends. Being a part of the ITP program can be challenging, but it's never boring!\n- Kaley, Purple Belt, 10, practicing for 6 years\nAikido is challenging, fun, and takes a lot of focus. I am learning how to defend myself, how to think more, and how to teach kids Aikido. My favorite things are the drills, games, and Jiyu Waza, making up my own moves. Steve Sensei helps me learn a lot, and although he can be quite serious, he's also lots of fun.\n- Matthew, Purple Belt, 11, practicing for 6 years\nAfter his swimming class ended one spring, my wife and I searched for some activity that would combine physical, mental and emotional aspects for my son TJ. After careful consideration we chose Aikido. I only wish that we would have enrolled him sooner! Being a self-defence course I was a little worried that it might be one of those kill-kill type of courses. We did a little research and found that this was not the case. My son loves the physical part of the exercises and he also likes the teachings of the different forms. He quickly became aware of the discipline required to advance his techniques, and above all, he is learning how to take care of himself. He is always eager to attend each class and I certainly don't need to prod him to get out of bed Saturday mornings. He knows that he has to respect the process of learning new techniques and not just getting to the next level. It is a goal of his to constantly improve so that he can get the next belt, but along the way he's having fun, getting exercise and learning discipline. A key factor for him was that he loves to jump around so much that we had previously enrolled him in a gymnastics class. This also helped him adapt to the exercise regime associated with Aikido. Having a good sensei is crucial and Steve Erickson has to be one of the best. We even transferred to the main dojo just so that TJ could be in his class. All in all, I just love watching him mature and Aikido certainly helps.\n- Andrew, Father of TJ\nShaylyn trained in two other martial arts before starting Aikido. After watching her first class she could barely contain her excitement; she knew this was the martial art for her. We have all been impressed with the friendly, relaxed atmosphere. Steve Sensei is a wonderful, caring instructor who manages to help every student believe in themselves. We feel honored to have such an amazing person influencing our daughter in such a positive way.\n- Deanne & Marlon, Parents of Shaylyn\nMy daughter Brinn (aged 8years) joined Aikido for the first time in January 2009. After having experimented with many other sports, it was immediately evident that Aikido was a great fit for her, evidenced by her huge enthusiasm to attend each class and her willingness to work hard. I believe the atmosphere of expected diligence, combined with acceptance and tolerance allowed her to grow and become stronger both physically and psychologically. My son Corben (aged 6 years) joined in the Summer 2009, after watching his big sister and loves all aspects of each class. Aikido provides him with the opportunity to gain physical strength while helping him to learn to concentrate and focus his attention. The classes are also filled with many fun aspects which helps to keep the children interested! Brinn is currently a red belt and Corben is an orange belt. We are looking forward to many more rewarding years with BigRock Aikikai.\n- Mother of Brinn and Corben\nSince he was five Maxim has attended Aikido Classes. He started with Dan Sensei at Aikido Tanren Juku dojo, and the last couple years continued with Steve Sensei at BigRock Aikikai. This non aggressive martial art has become part of Maxims life and himself. It taught him to focus and even be able to self-defend in some situations. Maxim has always enjoyed Aikido Classes (including Weapons training and helping with youngest children classes) and the friendly atmosphere in them. All Aikido instructors are very good in technique, with sense of humor. Each class begins with warm ups, followed by practical skills, and ends with active game. All students progress through the ranks. There is a lot to be gained from studying this beautiful art. And this is a great dojo at which to start. Thanks a lot to Steve and Dan Sensei and to all others sensei and instructors for their great job. If we were to choose a sport for Maxim again, it would definitely be Aikido.\n- Tatiana & Michael, Parents of Maxim, 12 years old\nAikido has helped my kids gain focus, self confidence and strength both physically and mentally. BigRock is an outstanding program with a compassionate, caring instructor that is very attentive to each child's strengths and needs. Aikido is a purely defensive martial art that encourages and supports inner peace in a noncompetitive and cooperative environment.\n- Kathryn, Mother of Taia\nAikido has been a wonderful experience for my two daughters who were 9 and 8 when they began. Both girls are not the athletic type, so attempting a martial art was very new to them. We met Steve Sensei at Cardel Place in a program that was an intro type for only 3 weeks. The girls fell in love with Aikido and the gentleness of Steve Sensei. They were among the first three students to attend the homeschooling class he had after that in Cardel Place. They received their yellow belts in February 2007 and now have their purple belts in 2010. This October 2010 they will have been doing Aikido for 4 years. We take the summer off each year but look forward to going back in the Fall. Aikido has helped them in their leadership skills and self confidence. They look forward to attending classes with Steve Sensei as he is a great teacher. As a parent, I also appreciate how he gets down to the children\u00eds level and talks to them, encouraging and helping them to master a move. Steve Sensei also takes an interest in all his students and further encourages them to do well in school and at home. He makes the classes fun and informative for all levels of belts. I would highly recommend him as an Aikido instructor for your child, for homeschooling or regular classes. Your child will learn new skills and have fun doing it.\n- Mary Ann, Parents of Joanne and Karilynn\nSteve Sensei has given Dakota his knowledge of respect, compassion, and integrity. He is a good role model in our community for our son.\n- Pat, Mother of Dakota",

        "title": "Birds Korea - Saemangeum - WWN Letter on the CBD Award to President Lee Myung-bak, August 2010",
        "raw_content": "Dear Dr Ahmed Djoghlaf, Executive Secretary of the CBD,\nRe: Disappointment at CBD Award to President Lee Myung-bak for his contribution to biodiversity conservation\nThe World Wetland Network (WWN), established at the Tenth Conference of Contracting Parties (COP10) to the Ramsar Convention in Changwon, is a rapidly growing independent network of over 300 wetland Non-Government Organisations (NGOs), wetland experts and community groups from across the world.\nThe WWN is extremely disappointed to learn that the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) has presented President Lee Myung-bak of the Republic of Korea (ROK) with an award for his contributions to biodiversity. Although we are aware of the ROK\u2019s \u2018green growth agenda\u2019, interest in green technology, and high profile support of international environmental conventions, we remain convinced that present policies in the ROK are in fact leading to an increase in the rate of biodiversity loss. This understanding is based on detailed information provided both by local WWN partners in-country, and by other wellrespected domestic and international visiting experts.\nThis award clearly sends the wrong message and undermines the new Strategic Plan that the Parties will ratify at the forthcoming CBD COP10 in Nagoya, Aichi, Japan. We believe that the outcome of presenting this award will prove negative for biodiversity in a number of ways.\nFirstly, the international wetland and biodiversity conservation community is well aware of several highly destructive mega-projects being undertaken in the ROK at this time, and this award will therefore result in a loss of credibility of the CBD.\nSecondly, this award undermines the good work being carried out by local stakeholders, NGOs and academics in the ROK who have been trying to prevent the negative impacts of projects such as the current Four Rivers construction project, the ongoing Saemangeum and Song-do tidal-flat reclamations and the proposed tidal power-plants.\nAttempts to discuss and advise on these projects in a meaningful way with decisionmakers is already extremely challenging due to the lack of formal mechanisms to enable open and regular discussions. These efforts will be made much more difficult by this award as it will undoubtedly be used to attempt to further sway public opinion by showing that the Four Rivers construction project and other environmental policies are being lauded by the CBD.\nFinally, presentation of this award both rewards and endorses the ROK and all other nations who continue to opt for the unsustainable use of hard engineering projects at the expense of natural eco-systems, contra the expert guidance provided by e.g. CBD and the Ramsar Convention.\nTo further explain our collective deep concern, we provide more details below of three projects that are leading to massive habitat change and species loss, but which nonetheless are being presented as sustainable (\u2018green growth\u2019) development by decisionmakers in the ROK.\nThe Four Rivers project in the ROK has been presented as a \u2018restoration\u2019 project, but it instead consists of much additional hard engineering, including dredging, culverting and further damming of rivers, leading to considerable loss of biodiversity in the rivers and adjacent wetlands. The ROK\u2019s own Fourth National Report to CBD highlights concerns about threats to biodiversity from hard-engineering projects of the very same kind:\n\u201c. . .the endemic ecosystems of the rivers are now being greatly disturbed due to various physical, chemical and biological factors. Physical factors include dam construction, the artificial straightening of streams, dredging, aggregate collection, banking, the construction of submerged weirs and dammed pools\u201d (ROK Fourth National Report to CBD 2009).\nWith this Four Rivers project costing the equivalent of at least $US 19 Billion, affecting several hundreds of kilometres of river (including Important Bird Areas and a Ramsar site) and many local communities, a high-level of prolonged and open public and stakeholder consultation should have been carried out, and a rigorous and comprehensive environmental impact assessment should have been conducted, before any construction work was started. This would have been in line with the guidance and the spirit of international conventions such as CBD and Ramsar. However, there was very little consultation, the EIA was completely inadequate and conducted in only four months. Even now, data from ongoing monitoring work is not publicly available, and there is no effective process through which concerns for biodiversity can be addressed by those outside of the development bodies.\nA 33-km long seawall was completed at Saemangeum in 2006, leading to the ongoing loss of 30,000 ha of intertidal wetland and 10,000 ha of sea shallows. The Saemangeum Shorebird Monitoring Program (SSMP) conducted by the Australasian Wader Studies Group and Birds Korea demonstrated the trans-hemispheric impacts on migratory shorebirds of this reclamation project, leading e.g. to a 20% or more decline in the global population of Great Knot Calidris tenuirostris, resulting in its listing by BirdLife International (on behalf of the IUCN) as globally vulnerable. While much of the Saemangeum estuarine ecosystem could still be restored, the development ministries continue to promote the conversion of this globally important wetland into dry land as \u201cgreen\u201d.\nAlready, probably 70% or more of all historic inter-tidal wetland in the ROK has been reclaimed. Even after the formal commitment undertaken by the ROK government in 2008 that \u201cintertidal mudflats should be preserved and that no large-scale reclamation projects are now being approved in the Republic of Korea\u201d (Ramsar Resolution X.22) more tidal reclamation projects and tidal power plants (which will lead to a degradation of remaining intertidal wetlands) have either been approved or are in the pipeline. Further large-scale reclamation at Song-do (Incheon) for example was approved in March 2009 which will result in the further loss of habitat used by at least 11 species of waterbird in Ramsar-defined internationally important concentrations, including breeding globallyendangered Black-faced Spoonbills Platalea minor.\nAll of the above information is in the public domain, and has been published either in NGO reports, in scientific journals or in the conservation literature. We are extremely disappointed that CBD failed either to consider this information or apparently to consult with independent observers and organizations before presenting such an award, not only in the International Year of Biodiversity, but in the run-up both to the CBD COP10 and the G20 meeting which will be held in the ROK in November.\nWe therefore urge the CBD to reconsider this award, in order to maintain the convention\u2019s good name. We also urge the convention to improve ways in which they can support the ROK in moves to cancel or at least scale-back the most destructive projects. Both are necessary in order to deliver genuinely positive outcomes for biodiversity in line with the Articles of the Convention on Biological Diversity.\nMr. Chris Rostron\nSigned on behalf of:\nThe World Wetland Network Committee\nCitizen Movement Against the Grand Canal\nCitizen Movement for the Protection of Nakdong River (Busan Office, Gyungnam Office, Daegu Gyungbuk Office)\nEco-Horizon Institute\nGreen Korea United\nHansalim\nICOOP Korea\nKorean Teacher's Organization for Ecological Education and Activity (TEEA)\nKorea Wetlands NGO Network (KWNN)\nOSEAN (Our Sea of East Asia Network)\nPGA Wetland Ecology Institute\nRamsar Network Japan\nwww.worldwetnet.org\nchris.rostron@wwt.org.uk\nCc: UNEP (Mr Achim Steiner); CMS (Ms Elisabeth Maruma Mrema); Ramsar Secretariat (Mr Anada Ti\u00e9ga); IUCN; BirdLife International; Wetlands International; WWF.\nNB: This letter will be publicly posted to the WWN website and WWN member websites from the 6th of September",

As part of a pre-launch marketing effort for a new drug, Bayer Corporation displayed the video wall during medical tradeshows to educate physicians about the theoretical foundation for its drug research, which seeks a treatment for the cognitive loss associated with Alzheimer's disease.\nThe Alzheimer's Abyss incorporates PET scans, MRIs, 3-D models and CGI animation to illustrate how cholinergic degeneration leads to loss of memory, disorientation, and emotional swings as Alzheimer's disease progresses. An animated 3-D human model was created to portray the elderly patient who appears in the opening and closing sequences. A 3-D brain model demonstrates the importance of cholinergic pathways in the formation of memories and the expression of emotions; the cholinergic pathways and activity along them are represented graphically by impulses flowing through the simulated brain. The Alzheimer's Abyss contributed to greater awareness of the symptoms of dementia, which are often ignored by physicians as merely the consequences of old age.",

So I stay on track with this Challenge.\nBook Review: The Westing Game by Ellen Raskin\nWhen I was about 12, I found this book on my sister\u2019s shelves, thought the back of it sounded quite intriguing and so I read it. I remember when I asked her if I could borrow it, she was dumbfounded. \u201cBut I have to read that for school,\u201d she said, \u201cfor a book report.\u201d From her tone, you could tell it was as if I\u2019d asked if I could eat all her Brussels\u2019 sprouts or clean her bathtub. Like Why on earth would anyone want to do that?\nBut the jacket copy had caught my attention. And while the book hadn\u2019t ever shown up on my own reading lists (or if so, had been pushed aside by more intriguing titles) I am thrilled I read it. Rereading it now, I am struck by how ahead of its times it is. There is one bit that\u2019s dated \u2013 a 20-year-old woman who\u2019s getting married \u2013 which no one seems to think is too young \u2013 and her mother says she doesn\u2019t need to learn to drive because she\u2019ll always have someone to drive her around. But the majority of the book feels fairly timeless, and actually some of the comments about race (the judge) and sexism (Turtle) still seem quite pertinent. Particularly because they are subtle and by no means the focus of the story, but when they come up they\u2019re neither ignored, nor pushed to the forefront, which struck me as unusual for the last 1970s.\nAnyway, this is a fun, almost silly mystery surrounding an apartment building on Lake Michigan in Wisconsin. The town is more or less owned by Mr. Westing, who built a factory there that employs most of the townspeople. The tenants of this new building are all hand-picked, unbeknownst to them, and when Mr. Westing dies and names them all as heirs shortly after they move in, things become very interesting. Particularly when in the reading of his will he declares he has been murdered \u2013 by one of the heirs! And the heirs who solve that crime will be the ones who inherit the millions. Everyone is paired off and given clues. The characters are a motley bunch, from a 12-year-old brat to a Chinese restaurateur, to a high school track star, to a medical intern. It is quick and full of action.\nPersonally I was impressed, given my very lousy memory, with how much of the book had stuck with me. I recognized a couple of the important clues right away, and I remembered what the clues translated to (though I didn\u2019t recall how that pointed to the killer). I also remembered that not everyone was who they seemed (though again the particulars hadn\u2019t stayed with me). So I was able to keep going \u201ca-ha!\u201d while not losing any of the suspense. It obviously had really struck a chord to stay with me all these years. In fact, I recently recommended it to a teacher who works with 4th and 5th graders who are reluctant readers as I think it\u2019s a perfect book to perhaps bring some kids back to the reading fold. It was a delight to reread.\nThe Exception Proves the Rule or Why I Read Just About Anything\nSome things I hate:\nA book where the main characters don\u2019t have names\nA book that doesn\u2019t use quotation marks\nSome things I am not crazy about:\nLittle to no punctuation\nHuge block paragraphs that go on forever\nApocalyptic/Dystopian books\nBooks that hit you over the head with allegories\nBut no rules are absolute. Immediately before September 11th, a (now ex-) boyfriend gave me a copy of Blindness by Jose Saramego, which remains one of the best books I\u2019ve read in the last 10 years. And it hits every one of the above black marks. And not only did I tolerate these \u201cshortcomings\u201d, but in the end I thought that they all made perfect sense and in fact the book wouldn\u2019t have been as phenomenal without them. Overly stylistic books usually hold their readers\u2019 at arm\u2019s length which I don\u2019t like, not to mention they seem to be saying \u201clook at me! I am so much smarter than you!\u201d Normally, I am of the opinion that not only does making something more difficult not show how smart you are, but sometimes it can be harder (and take a smarter person) to write something simple.\nIn Blindness, the characters, one by one, are struck blind suddenly in an epidemic that sweeps the city then the country and so on. One woman seems immune but pretends to be blind to stay with her husband and help him through the quarantine and ensuing disaster as chaos reigns and society implodes. As obvious an allegory as Camus\u2019s The Plague, it manages to not be derivative of that novel at all. Like Metamorphosis, there is no explanation, no set-up; instead it just happens and the repercussions are the main storyline.\nThis book is a great example of why I read so broadly and why I constantly try to expand my literary horizons. If you say \u201cI only read mysteries\u201d or \u201cI always hate horror novels,\u201d you will miss out on some wonderful books you would have loved, if you\u2019d just given them a shot. So when people look at my list of books and they\u2019re shocked that I read a book about worms (The Earth Moved) or a memoir about being undercover in The Hell\u2019s Angels (No Angel), or a book about a scientist and her parrot (Alex & Me), I always nod and say, I read widely. It was convenient when I repped independent stores, as they weren\u2019t always bookstores. I could talk to a gardening store about Flower Confidential or an aquarium about Cod. One science museum that was having trouble coming up with a list of adult books to go with their Grossology exhibit was initially thrilled but eventually disturbed when I recommended Stiff, Driving Mr. Albert, and Maggots, Murder and Men, all of which I had read. One thing I love about books is that there\u2019s a book for anyone. If I run across a person who \u201cjust doesn\u2019t read,\u201d I start rubbing my hands together (usually on the inside so as to not freak them out) and think, \u201cyou just haven\u2019t had the right books. I will find them.\u201d I got an ex-boyfriend back reading again when I got him 10 books on sailing. Another guy who as far as he could remember had never read a book for fun I brought back to the fold with High Fidelity. One date was truly shocked that I had read both Rammer Jammer Yellow Hammer and The Blind Side (years before the movie, I read it still in hardcover.) I can always come up with a point of commonality. My one big area of weakness currently is genre fiction (romances, mysteries, horror, thrillers, sci fi, fantasy.) I have read books in all these categories at one point or another, but they just didn\u2019t grab me enough to think I needed to read more, even if I enjoyed the ones I read. And I do currently have a bit of a blind spot when it comes to comics, although I did read 2 graphic memoirs in 2009. Rarely has stepping out of my comfort zone disappointed me, and I encourage everyone to give it a try.\nMy Favorite Reads: Nickel and Dimed\nEach week I am featuring one of my favorite reads from the past, thanks to At Home With Books. In February I am focussing on books related to the economy, as well as books published by MacMillan.\nNickel and Dimed: On (Not) Getting By in America by Barbara Ehrenreich\nThe New York Times bestseller, and one of the most talked about books of the year, Nickel and Dimed has already become a classic of undercover reportage.\nMillions of Americans work for poverty-level wages, and one day Barbara Ehrenreich decided to join them. She was inspired in part by the rhetoric surrounding welfare reform, which promised that any job equals a better life. But how can anyone survive, let alone prosper, on $6 to $7 an hour? To find out, Ehrenreich moved from Florida to Maine to Minnesota, taking the cheapest lodgings available and accepting work as a waitress, hotel maid, house cleaner, nursing-home aide, and Wal-Mart salesperson. She soon discovered that even the \"lowliest\" occupations require exhausting mental and physical efforts. And one job is not enough; you need at least two if you intend to live indoors.\nNickel and Dimed reveals low-wage America in all its tenacity, anxiety, and surprising generosity -- a land of Big Boxes, fast food, and a thousand desperate strategies for survival. Instantly acclaimed for its insight, humor, and passion, this book is changing the way America perceives its working poor.\nThis book was really well-written. And I think does a great job opening the eyes of a lot of middle-class Americans to the realities of the lives of the working poor. However, having lived on $6.15/hr myself, in low income housing, I don't think Ms. Ehrenreich went far enough in her experiment - she had a decent car and a computer and health insurance, which most people in this income bracket (including myself at the time) don't, and therefore I felt it was close, but no cigar.\nI actually didn't earn enough at $6.15/hour to qualify for low-income housing (which is not no-income housing). I had to get a previous job to lie and say I still worked there part-time as otherwise my rent was exactly 50% of my take-home pay. Small part-time gigs here and there pushed me into new tax brackets and caused me to owe over $500 in taxes two years in a row. Which was also well over half my take-home income. It's a messed up world when getting paid more than minimum wage is still well under the minimum for low income housing. In 1997, my monthly grocery budget was $80. And I lived in a state with a nearly 10% sales tax on food! The one saving grace was that in 1997 gas was around $1/gallon. My car was 14 years old, and just when I thought I could actually make it through a month and not have to ponder if I could pay either my phone bill or my electric bill, my muffler would fall off my car. Without fail, every time I thought I could actually make my budget work, the car would break. I made $14,000 that year. It was really, really hard. And although I applaud Ms. Ehrenreich's efforts, she cut corners and fell short. Perhaps that was inevitable since this was just an experiment for her, and she had a book deal and a journalism career and a nice house to go back to. But for people who don't want to experience the fun of it for themselves, this book is a welcome addition to the economic discussion. A lot of these people - who ring you up at the pharmacy, who fill up your vending machines at work, who do your drycleaning - we encounter them every single day and we somehow don't see them.\nThese are from Why I Hate Canadians by Will Ferguson\ncrofters, p. 192\n\"Even today, Britain has titled absentee landlords who have crofters working their land like latter-day peasants.\"\na person who rents and works a small farm, esp. in Scotland or northern England.\nseigneurial, p. 193\n\"New France was established around a seigneurial system of landowners.\"\n(in French Canada) a holder of a seigneury.\nseigneury: (in French Canada) land originally held by grant from the king of France.\nmuskeg, p. 250\n\"We have vast reaches of tundra, trees and muskeg.\"\na bog of northern North America, commonly having sphagnum mosses, sedge, and sometimes stunted black spruce and tamarack trees.\n\u201cWaiting On\u201d Wednesday:The Season of Second Chances\n\u201cWaiting On\u201d Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted here, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating. This week's pre-publication \"can't-wait-to-read\" selection is:\nA world of possibilities opens up for Joy Harkness when she sets out on a journey t hat\u2019s going to show her the importance of friendship, love, and what makes a house a home\nComing-of-age can happen at any age. Joy Harkness had built a university career and a safe life in New York, protected and insulated from the intrusions and involvements of other people. When offered a position at Amherst College, she impulsively leaves the city, and along with generations of material belongings, she packs her equally heavy emotional baggage. A tumbledown Victorian house proves an unlikely choice for a woman whose family heirlooms have been boxed away for years. Nevertheless, this white elephant becomes the home that changes Joy forever. As the restoration begins to take shape, so does her outlook on life, and the choices she makes over paint chips, wallpaper samples, and floorboards are reflected in her connection to the co-workers who become friends and friendships that deepen. A brilliant, quirky, town fixture of a handyman guides the renovation of the house and sparks Joy\u2019s interest to encourage his personal and professional growth. Amid the half-wanted attention of the campus\u2019s single, middle-aged men, known as \u201cthe Coyotes,\u201dand the legitimate dramas of her close-knit community, Joy learns that the key to the affection of family and friends is being worthy of it, and most important, that second chances are waiting to be discovered within us all.\nThe Secret Life of Words by Henry Hitchings, p. 104-105\n\"In Britain and America the fruit's [tomato] popularity was slow to rise, because of its less than inviting kinship with deadly nightshade. Another word acquired via Spanish is avocado, which, thanks to its shape, takes its name from the Nahuatl for a testicle.\"\nMusing Mondays is hosted by Just One More Page and today's theme is about what you do with all those books you collect over the years.\nDo you keep all the books you buy over the years? Do you just keep the ones you really enjoy or the ones you have a particular fondness? Do you keep certain series or do you keep them? What do you do with them if you don't keep them?\nLike a lot of people in our business, I live in constant fear of dying in an avalanche of my own creation. I get rid of very nearly all the books I read.\nThese are what I keep:\na shelf of all the books I edited\nmy Lit books from high school and college\nmy cartoon books that I love for particularly blue days\nlovely antique classics\nMy Book House Books\na couple of shelves of my favorite authors\na couple of shelves of childhood favorites\nIn the past year I have added a grand total of 2 books to the Keep shelves. I generally try to find my books good homes, but I will also donate them. Habitat for Humanity runs a used bookshop in my town so my donations support them and I think they're a great cause. It's also a very cute store.\nOn the plus side, when the avalanche does happen, as I lie bleeding to death with a compound fractured leg, I will at least not die bored.\nThis meme is now hosted by Sheila at One Person's Journey Through a World of Books.\nWhy I Hate Canadians by Will Ferguson\nSarah, Plain and Tall by Sarah MacLachlan\nBooks I Gave Up On: none\nThe Secret Life of Words: How English Became English by Henry Hitchings\nConfessions of a Shopaholic by Sophie Kinsella\nUp next (more MacMillan):\nThe Writing Class by Jincy Willet\nDreaming Water by Gail Tsukiyama\nand (not a MacMillan) Outlander by Diana Gabaldon (I have a long flight this week and I promised a friend I would finally get around to this, which she has been pressing on me for many years.)\nBook Review: Why I Hate Canadians by Will Ferguson\nSo this was recommended by a close friend as being hysterical, along the lines of Bill Bryson. However that wasn\u2019t my experience.\nLarge parts of this book went right over my head. I am not only American, but I am from the South, so there\u2019s very little I know about Canada. I did kind of know that already but this book really pointed out how very little I know about Canada. My friend who read it, his wife\u2019s family is Canadian and they spend part of each summer there, so I think that\u2019s a big reason why he liked it so much more than I did. I think he already knew more, and he had people around that he could ask about confusing parts.\nNow I will say that Mr. Ferguson is a very good writer. He\u2019s authoritative but casual in a way that speaks to everyone (or at least to every Canadian). But as he pointed out in the introduction (to the new 10th anniversary edition) he considered this book in a lot of ways to be his journalistic resume, so he filled it with a wide variety of topics to show his breadth and skill, not necessarily to be the best grouping of essays for readers. And it\u2019s true at times it did seem a bit wide-ranging, though still entertaining. As an ignorant America, the parts about Quebec wanting to secede and issues with First Nations were not fully explained. This was obviously written for a Canadian audience. (I was reading a Canadian edition, though it was also published in the U.S. The American edition is not out of print, and I don\u2019t know if perhaps it had a different foreword that explained more. But I do think it\u2019s appropriate that this is the edition that lapsed quickly.) Some parts were just too serious and political for my taste. I wanted it to be more humorous, like the essay about how the 3 goals of Canadians are 1) keeping Americans out 2) keeping French in and 3)making the natives disappear. I think his conclusion that instead of being subsumed by American pop culture instead it helps to define Canada as not-American, and really they are more voyeurs than wannabes, is very perceptive. The last section, titled \u201cSex in a Canoe\u201d is the funniest. The diatribe against the poor beaver, as the official symbolic animal representing Canada was certainly amusing. \u201cIt\u2019s sad, really, that a nation would try to emulate a fat, flat-tailed rodent. Sadder still that we don\u2019t measure up.\u201d\nNaturally, a book with a large focus on politics doesn\u2019t hold up well more than 10 years on (1997). The fall of the Berlin wall was just a few years ago in this book, and September 11 certainly hasn\u2019t happened yet. While it can be interesting to look back at these spots of history frozen in time \u2013 at what we thought the big problems were and see how they worked out, it\u2019s also of course turned out to be a bit dated.\nOverall, I think this is a good book to read as an introduction to Canada, if you will have a Canadian available to explain Katimavik, Rick Salutin, and Micmac. Otherwise it\u2019s a bit esoteric for your typical American. I found it at times frustrating.\nBook Review: Sarah, Plain and Tall by Patricia MacLachlan\nUnfortunately I had already seen the movie and although it was at least a year ago, the actors were still stuck in my head.\nRegardless of that, the book was great. It is short but Ms. MacLachlan doesn\u2019t use any extra words. The spare language perfectly reflected the simple life on the prairie. I had to wonder to myself about the courage and audacity of a woman like Sarah who was willing to move across the country during what I assume is the late 1800s by herself just on the possibility of this marriage working out. It\u2019s not precisely an arranged marriage but in some ways it\u2019s even more risky \u2013 no one has said that these two people might actually like each other. What struck me as the overriding commonality between Sarah and Jacob is their straightforward and practical personalities.\nOf course the heart of the story is Caleb and Anna. The story is told from Anna\u2019s point of view, and while, as an adult, I know that Jacob\u2019s relationship with Sarah will also be of vital importance to the happiness of this family, her relationship with the kids will of course be primary.\nI loved Sarah\u2019s descriptions of Maine, the details about her cat Seal, and how she tries to tell Caleb and Anna about the sea. I have been to Maine, and it\u2019s amazing in the simplicity how she captures it so perfectly.\nSarah, Plain and Tall is a beautiful, poetic story. I did not read this book as a child, so I don\u2019t know how differently I would have reacted to it. As much as I loved the Laura Ingalls Wilder books, I\u2019m sure I would have loved it. This is a touching, thoughtful, quiet novel.\nWhat is your honey\u2019s favorite book? Would you date a guy who didn\u2019t read? What does a favorite book say about a person? How much do you judge based on reading preferences? These thoughts occurred to me after a conversation about unfortunate reading experiences.\nI was recounting one very unfortunate summer in college when I was dating a certain young man. He was pre-law, and he suggested I read The Firm. That experience should have convinced me to become an editor, right then and there. I was hard-pressed to not go get a red pen to correct his stilted dialect. I was unhappy. He assured me that a gazillion people can\u2019t be wrong and I should really give another book a chance. I tried The Client. While the writing and dialogue had improved, the premise was even more ludicrous. A ten-year-old kid outsmarts the mob? My ten-year-old brother couldn\u2019t manage ordering a pizza. I threw it across the room and have banned Mr. Grisham from my reading list forevermore.\nThe following summer, we got back together. One day he stopped by the bookstore to see me and told me he had a book I should read. 9 months of break-up had made me forget the prior summer\u2019s experience. To my misfortune. He said it was the only book that had ever made him cry. I was intrigued. Reader, have you guessed my pending torture? He presented me with The Bridges of Madison County. Ugh. I have never felt so used and dirty after reading a book. I know it\u2019s widely panned, and it\u2019s cheap to pile on, but my biggest problem with the book was its obvious and blatant pandering to the lowest common denominator of the book buying audience. I strongly feel that Mr. Waller did an analysis of the largest potential market, what their fantasy would be, and how to maximize his profits in this endeavor. The only thing I can really say to that is, thank God I didn\u2019t pay for a copy.\nShortly afterward, we broke up again. We did not get back together again. It should have been a sign. Since then I have been more careful. My current biggest dating literary worry is if his favorite book is Catcher in the Rye. I think it shows a bit of arrested development to have that book still ring true and speak to your soul in your 30s. (To be honest, I actually also thought that in my teens when I first attempted \u2013 and yes, failed \u2013 to read the book and was totally irritated by that spoiled, entitled brat. But every year that goes by, the worry grows.) A guy who doesn\u2019t read I can handle. They always read, even if just a little, when I\u2019m done with them. Thank you Nick Hornby for being the wedge to open the door to reading fun for men.\nMy Favorite Reads: See You in a Hundred Years by Logan Ward\nEach week I am featuring one of my favorite reads from the past, thanks to this event hosted by At Home With Books. In February I am focussing on books related to the economy.\nSee You in a Hundred Years: Discover One Young Family's Search for a Simpler Life... Four Seasons of Living in the Year 1900 by Logan Ward\nLogan Ward and his wife, Heather, were prototypical New Yorkers circa 2000: their lives steeped in ambition, work, and stress. Feeling their souls grow numb, wanting their toddler son to see the stars at night, the Wards made a plan. They would return to their native South, find a farm, and for one year live exactly as people did in 1900 Virginia: without a car or electricity - and with only the food they could grow themselves. It was a project that would push their relationship to the brink - and illuminate stunning hardships and equally remarkable surprises.\nFrom Logan's emotionally charged battles with Belle, the family workhorse, to Heather's daily trials with a wood-fired cooking stove and a constant siege of garden pests and cantankerous animals, the Wards were soon overwhelmed by their new life. At the same time as Logan and Heather struggled with their increasingly fragile relationship, as their son relished simple joys, the couple discovered something else: within their self-imposed time warp, they had found a community, a sense of belonging, and an appreciation both for what we've lost - and what we've gained - across a century of change.\nI loved all the PBS series that inspired this book (Such as \"The 1900 House\") so I was eager to read it, and to my joy it turned out great. Logan and Heather have the right amount of realism and sarcasm to cut the otherwise earnest effort to go back to a \"simpler\" time of wood-burning stoves, a lack of refrigeration, and lots of livestock. The story zips along quickly with quirky neighbors, insane goats, and bad drivers visiting the next-door Boy Scout camp. It never feels preachy or holier-than-thou. Logan has a friendly, colloquial writing style that makes it feel like you're sitting around the fire chatting over cider.\nWondrous Words\nWondrous Words Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Kathy aka Bermuda Onion where we share new (to us) words that we've encountered in our reading. Feel free to join in the fun.\nThe words are from Why I Hate Canadians by Will Ferguson.\n\"True, they didn't mix well with the more than 150,000 French Canadians and returning Acadians\" (p. 102)\nA native or inhabitant of Acadia. Acadia is a former French colony in Canada, chiefly in Nova Scotia, ceded to the British in 1713.\n\"You can kick a Canadian when he is down, you can piss on his tuque and shoot his favorite malamute.\" (p. 112)\nA knitten woolen cap in the form of a cylindrical bag often with tapered ends that is worn with one end tucked into the other.\nHm, this still doesn't explain to me what a tuque looks like. So I found this picture.\n\"Waiting On\" Wednesday\n\"Waiting On\" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted here, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating. This week's pre-publication \"can't wait to read\" selection is:\nFrom the publisher: Draws on biographical information to imagine the future author of Little Women experiencing an unexpected romance duringthe summer of 1855 in a small New Hampshire town where she is forced to make a fateful choice between love and her dream of independence as a writer.\nComing in April from Putnam.\nWalking and Reading\nSo I am training for my third half marathon. I am a walker, not a runner, and I don't want to hear any guff from runners. I finished 1/3 from the end in my first marathon, ahead of a ton of \"joggers,\" and I can out-walk most people. I am preparing to do Nashville for the second time. Training for spring marathons sucks. On Sunday I was slipping and sliding, 2 days after we got just 3 inches of snow, as there were large swaths of sidewalk in the shade that were still not melted (and in fact were more ice than snow at that point.) One great thing about my city is how they do have a ton of sidewalks, but they're often just on one side of the street, so I really had to struggle through the ice/snow patches. I am going to be doing a fall half marathon with BookNAround, and she hates prepping for fall marathons. I not only prefer heat to cold, but at least then I don't have to worry about twisting my ankle, and my clothes don't get trashed like they do with the mud and slush. In the winter when it rains, it rains. In the summer, it only rains for an hour or so. Plus I love rain when it's hot - it makes you more comfortable. But in the winter, it makes unpleasant weather so much, much worse.\nI started walking in college. And kept it up. In Nashville, New York, now NC. And after so many years, I was just bored to tears. Then I discovered the iPod.\nI bought mine in the spring of 2005. An aqua mini. I love it. And when I discovered podcasts, I loved it even more. I can walk all day as long as I'm fully loaded with Car Talks, A Way With Words, and Authors on Tours. But the memory is fairly low. And it's not holding much of a charge these days. It's okay now but when I have to do my 12-mile walk, I really worry that just as I hit exhausted the iPod will die. I may end up lying on the side of the road if that happens. Plus, my IT guy keeps making fun of my cute old Mini whenever he sees it charging on my desk. So I am getting a new one. A Nano. I think I'm going to get green but I'm not 100% sure on that. The thing I'm most excited about is that I'll be able to put audiobooks on it. Right now if I want to add an audiobook, I have to take what seems like half my music off. Luckily files from Audible are pretty compressed, so they're not as hard to wedge on, but I also have some books I've ripped from CDs and those files are huge. And I want to be able to listen to more books while I walk. I am trying to up my reading levels this year (after all I have my work's reading contest to think about.)\nBut it's winter and I just can't listen to audiobooks on the treadmill. I can't just stare at the readouts of how far I've gone, or I'll go nuts and frustrated and get off the treadmill. I have to read print there. I have figured out a trick for regular books on the treadmill: I use a binder clip to hold the thinner side of the book open so it's not always trying to snap shut on me. It doesn't always work though. ARCs are particularly persistent about wanting to be closed. I could break the binding but I stopped doing that about 10 years ago and really don't want to go back there. Hardcovers are best. I've heard that large print books are great for the treadmill but personally haven't tried that yet.\nSo the new Nano is coming home with me tomorrow. And I hope my 8 mile walk this weekend will be eventless. I am very happy spring is around the corner.\nLabels: audiobooks, bookish thoughts, marathon\nBook Review: The Checklist Manifesto: How to Get Things Right by Atul Gawande\nLast night after finishing this book I lay in bed well past my bedtime (and I got to bed late the night before too), and I thought to myself, well this is why I ought to be reading about Canadian politics or etymology before bedtime as those don't keep me awake, keyed up and excited. My brain was spinning round and round and it was forever before I finally fell asleep. So what was this fascinating book that kept me up? A thriller? A weepy? Nope, a book proposing the use of checklists in surgeries.\nNow you're probably thinking, huh? Seriously? How could that possibly be interesting? I assure you it really was.\nMostly it's due to Dr. Gawande's writing style which is accessible, simple but not stupid, and how he always finds spot-on comparisons to other fields that are perhaps a bit more widely understood than medicine. For this book he talked about checklists used in flying, construction, and even finance. I had heard about the airplane comparison before I read it, but the construction one in some ways made more sense. I particularly was fascinated by the fact that there's a computer program that after all the subcontractor's specs are entered (electrical, plumbing, HVAC, carpentry), will note all conflicts (such as an outlet planned to be in the middle of a doorway).\nNaturally with the flying comparisons everyone will think of \"The Miracle on the Hudson\" and rest assured, it is discussed. But a couple of earlier incidents were also detailed and were quite terrifying. A flight from Honolulu to New Zealand had a baggage compartment latch fail, and in less than 2 seconds a huge hole was blown in the side of the plane, sucking a lot of passengers out. One flight attendant's life was saved when a passenger grabbed her ankle. (People seriously, always wear your seat belt when you're sitting.) And the explosion had also ripped out the connections to the oxygen system. So the pilots were oxygen deprived, afraid, and yet were saved by their checklists, and saved the lives of over 150 people on the plane. When something horrible happens, do you want the people in charge to know exactly what to do, even if it's a situation they've never experienced before? Do you want them to be able to hit the most crucial points in their solution, and for those tasks to have been previously practiced, and worked out by experts to find the simplest solution? Or do you want them flying by the seat of their pants, trying to remember something they might have learned 20 years ago, without anyone else's help? Because that's what happens when a catastrophe happens in most surgical rooms today. The surgeon is the boss, the rest of the surgical team is supposed to just do what he/she says, and even if they've seen this particular emergency before it may have been decades earlier. The result isn't always good. But understandable considering how infrequently these complications can arise.\nBut did you know that the majority of bad outcomes from surgery are a result of simple errors? Doctors not washing their hands before they see you. Not using a sterile dressing on you. Not wanting to change their gloves after having touched something not sterile. Forgetting to give you antibiotics before surgery. These are the issues that the current checklists are designed for and are proven to help rectify. Through a worldwide study these simple tasks were shows to improve mortality and complication rates after surgeries by a third. Not only in India, but also in Seattle and Detroit. I would understand if a complication arose in my surgery but if I were to go in for a simple scope procedure (having a tiny camera threaded down your throat or a vein to look at something inside you) and came out with a 2-foot long incision down my chest because of a typo on my chart that no one pointed out, I'd be livid. (This is an example of a potential error that was caught in one of Dr. Gawande's own procedures thanks to a checklist.)\nSuch a simple solution. And you know what else is saved besides lives? Money. With the current raging debates on health care and its attendant costs, the savings realized if all hospitals adopted this system could go a long way towards covering all the uninsured. I find it baffling that they don't all adopt this right away, although I can see how if my boss suddenly told me I'd need to go through a checklist daily of the most simple, mundane tasks that I would find it a bit insulting. But with results like these, it seems to prove itself quickly. I think the most interesting detail was that while the majority of doctors definitely thought they themselves didn't need to use the checklists, 91% said if they were to undergo a surgery, they'd want the checklist used. Hmm. I'll definitely be asking my doctor if his hospital uses the Safe Surgery Checklist the next time I need a procedure. In fact, I'm thinking of just giving him this book on my next visit.\nThis fascinating book has massive potential positive ramifications if only the medical establishment would embrace it. And it was an interesting, fast read to boot.\nGrad your current read. Open to a random page. Share 2 \"teaser\" sentences from somewhere on that page. BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS.

Once the incision is made, it is too late for the antibiotic.\" p. 98\nBooks completed last week: bummer, none\nConfessions of s Shopaholic by Sophia Kinsella\nI (almost) never do this - read so many books at the same time. So I first started The Secret Life of Words. I often have a book on etymology as my perpetual bedside book as I do love etymology but it's really, really dry and certainly won't keep me awake. It has occasionally taken me a year to read some of these books but I do always get through them. The very next day at work I noticed Why I Hate Canadians in my boss's boss's office. A friend had recommended it last year but it's out of print in the U.S. Luckily, my boss's boss is Canadian. Since this is a borrow, and from a boss, I thought I should start it immediately so I can return it quickly. Then, I was driving to visit my aunt this weekend (we saw Wicked last night which was fantastic) and I had downloaded Shopaholic from Audible a few weeks ago so that seemed like a good distraction for the drive. I feel guilty about this current state and it will improve next week, I promise.\nUp Next (still all MacMillan books):\nOranges by John McPhee\nThe Wild Smile of Girls by Jennifer Mankse Fenske\nBook Review: C D B! by William Steig\nThis is a really cute book. It's one of my Mom's favorite from when we were kids. Boy, Steig was ahead of his time. I look at these cartoons, and I keep thinking about text messaging. They say things like:\nD C-L S N D C.\ntranslation: The seal is in the sea.\nD L-F-N 8 D A\ntranslation: The elephant ate the hay.\nEven though it's a tiny book, it takes a little while to read because on every page you have to figure it out. It's pretty interesting for when kids are learning to read, for them to understand that the sounds of letters can have different meaning than the sounds of words, introduces wordplay which can help children be advanced readers. When they figure out the riddles, they feel like they're in on the joke and hopefully it's so much fun for them that don't even notice all the thinking.\nThis review is a part of Kid Konnection, hosted by Booking Mama, a collection of children's book-related posts over the weekend\nPage Turners wrote about this meme and said, \u201cactually saw this on someone\u2019s blog (sorry, can't remember which one!) and thought that it was a really interesting question and I would love to hear how other people named their blog.\u201d How did you decide what name to give your blog? Did you give it a lot of thought or did it just come to you?\nCaroline is my given name, although I go by Carin. It\u2019s a little off-topic but people often ask me how I got Carin from Caroline, and I actually got it from the book Tough-Luck Karen by Johanna Hurwitz. I am not and never have been a bookbinder.\nNearly ten years ago I was on vacation with my family, and my mother noticed I was reading Youngblood Hawke by Herman Wouk. This inspired her to tell me a story from when she was a teenager, when Wouk\u2019s Marjorie Morningstar was a bestseller. Her older brothers were big Mad Magazine fans, and there was a cartoon that struck home with the whole family. A cartoon boy asked his mother if he could do something and he said everyone was doing it. The mother said, \u201cOh yeah? Name one.\u201d He says, \u201cWould you believe, Caroline Bookbinder?\u201d (a play on the name Marjorie Morningstar.) For years when any kid in her family tried this argument on my grandparents, Caroline Bookbinder was brought out. My mother, being a bit of a bookworm, as well as an aficionado of the name Caroline, remembered this and brought it up 40 years later. I never heard it again and when I was looking for a blog name that was unique and somehow was related to me and to books, it took a while, but I did eventually remember this funny name. I googled it, looking for the original cartoon but alas, google let me down. But it did let me know that the name \u201cCaroline Bookbinder\u201d was pretty unique in the interwebs so it was a safe bet to use for my blog.\nAnti-Valentine\u2019s Day Books or Books for a Break-Up\nSo I was pulling together a care package for a friend getting over a bad break-up, and I wanted to add some books to it. I put in The Bounce-Back Book, and God Never Blinks. Then I wanted to add some fiction. Nothing sad. Nothing romantic. Female empowering. There\u2019s not a lot out there. I thought of The Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood and Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Caf\u00e9, but I think she\u2019s read both already.\nWhen I was an editor, Valentine\u2019s Day was my holiday. Except I published Anti-Valentine\u2019s Day books, like How To Spot a Bastard by His Star Sign, and We Need To Talk\u2026 But First, Do You Like My Shoes? A lot less competition than Christmas books, but have as much potential sales really. Love, Loss, and What I Wore has been a perennial seller for over a decade now. I don\u2019t want self-help. This is too early, too raw. I just want funny, revenge, you-go-girl kinds of lit to lift her spirits (not a \u201cdon\u2019t worry, you\u2019ll meet someone else\u201d book either as she\u2019s too exhausted with 3 kids to even think about that right now.) And I\u2019m quite surprised at how little of this kind of book there is. I wonder why? Aren\u2019t women 60% of the book buyers out there? Aren\u2019t many of us getting over a relationship? I would have thought after the success of He\u2019s Just Not That Into You that more of these would have been published but it seems Publishing decided that was a one-off.\nNow, these books aren\u2019t for just anyone, but Sloane Tannen\u2019s books of bizarre chick dioramas are hilarious for a twisted girl with a good sense of humor. My favorite is Bitter With Baggage Seeks Same. That\u2019s what I\u2019m tempted to send her but I think it possibly could freak her out. I sent her a spa gift certificate. But I really wish there were more literary options.\nMy Work is trying to get me to read more\nI know that sounds kinda crazy but unlike a lot of you guys, books aren\u2019t just a hobby for me, but also my day job. And since we\u2019re in the business of selling books, it\u2019s sometimes useful for some of us to have read books.\nA couple of weeks ago my company announced a reading contest. It\u2019s a lot like those ones from when you were a kid in the summer at the library. Simply keep a list of your books read, and the longest list wins. Picture books don\u2019t count but pretty much everything else does (Middle Reader and Young Adult, audio, rereads). My boss immediately emailed to say he expected me to win. But alas, I have a co-worker, who I give the whole case of Harlequin books to every month, who I believe will run circles around my number. She reads probably 10 books a week. I\u2019ve not even managed that when rereading MR and YA novels. This is a nice incentive for me to ratchet my YA reading into a higher gear. But sadly, I think I won\u2019t have a real shot against the romance readers. Which is a bummer because the prize is $100 of books, though I'd also do it just for bragging rights. I am a little competitive, particularly when it comes to the very small list of areas of my expertise, of which reading is #1. (I did talk to my romance reading friend and she said I shouldn\u2019t worry about her so much because she has to admit to all the books, so she definitely WON\u2019T be listing all her books, as so many are embarrassing.)\nIt\u2019s nice to have a bit of a fire lit. You might think these shouldn\u2019t work on me so differently than the Challenges do, but it does. Challenges seem to me like homework which means I\u2019ll drag my feet until the last minute. Whereas a contest with no real parameters is just fun. I never even came close on those library summer reading contests (my mother wouldn\u2019t take me to the library often enough, nor buy me enough books at the bookstore) so this is my chance for vindication!\nI wish my favorite TV shows would all get cancelled. I know that sounds crazy, but that\u2019s my biggest obstacle for more reading. I know that I will start reading on my lunch hour more though! I used to do that 10 years ago, but got out of the habit (and got more work to do.) I also am getting more audio books.\nThis week they finally posted the leaderboard. I am tied for #9!\nOn your mark, get set, let\u2019s go!\nMy Favorite Reads: The Urban Hermit\nMy Favorite Reads is a meme hosted by At Home With Books, where each week I am featuring one of my favorite reads from the past. In February I am featuring books related to the current economy.\nThe Urban Hermit: A Memoir by Sam Macdonald\nFaced with the truth that his debts and his waistline had both ballooned out of control, Sam MacDonald devised a plan to change his life.\nWhen Sam graduated from Yale in 1995, he watched a classmate make inroads as a head-office guy in professional baseball, another become a day-trading millionaire, and another develop connections at the Playboy Mansion. Struggling to make ends meet, he shrugged his shoulders at their success and raised a tall one to them. It wasn't until April 2000 that Sam got his wake-up call. He weighed 340 lbs. He was flat broke. And the IRS had caught up with him.\nIn a desperate attempt to save himself, Sam decided to limit himself to a budget of $8 a week and 800 calories a day. He called it \"The Urban Hermit Plan.\" He thought he would do it for a month. Instead, he embarked on a bizarre year-long journey. He lost 160 pounds in the process, befriended rent-dodging trailer-park denizens, flew to Bosnia on assignment, traveled to a peace festival in a hippie van, had a run-in with Cooter from the Dukes of Hazzard, and met the woman who would later become his wife.\nThe Urban Hermit is a wildly hilarious story about backwoods living, as told by a man who should have known better.\nOkay, Sam MacDonald is probably a little bit crazy. But I get where he was (fat, broke, desperate) and while I've not exactly been there myself, I've been able to see there. I'm not sure I could've done what he did to get out of debt and to lose weight, but it was inspiring. Sticking to my budget is a lot easier when I'm thinking, I could just be living on tuna fish and lentils. Thankfully it's nonfiction, or else the part where Sam's life starts to fall into place just as he finally starts to take responsibility and work towards some resolutions, would be cheesy. But as that wasn't contrived, it's also inspiring. But in a sarcastic, funny way. On my worst day, I'm still not working in a fish warehouse. But I do pray every day for my transmission not to go out, as a lot of us are just one dead transmission away from our budgets going to hell. It's fun, funny, debt and life advice from a regular dude who drinks and is lazy and has crazy cats occasionally. It's nice to not be preached at. Great for the post-college crowd.\nBook Review: China Dolls by Michelle Yu and Blossom Kan\nI wanted to like this book. Really, truly I did. But there were problems. For me, the biggest problem is that the book made me mentally pull out my editor\u2019s pen and never put it away. While that\u2019s a big problem, it\u2019s not the worst \u2013 at least this book I think is fixable.\nThis is a chick lit novel of 3 Chinese-American women in their late 20s in Manhattan. The biggest issue for me, that would have fixed 70% of the problems, is the structure. First M.J.\u2019s story is told, then Alex\u2019s, then Lin\u2019s. The whole story takes place over a year (bookended by visits to a fortune teller on Chinese New Year\u2019s) and each woman\u2019s story is told sequentially and consecutively. So they don\u2019t overlap at all. M.J. and Alex each get about 2 months for her story, Lin\u2019s takes 8 because she goes to London for 6 months, although it\u2019s really the 2 months before London that are her story. As such, everything is highly compressed. You have the whole traditional chick lit story arc \u2013 introduce our protagonist, introduce a couple of men, have her pick the wrong one, go through a whole mini relationship, break up, get over him, and then pick up with the new guy \u2013 in only 60 days, and 80 pages. Sure, I buy that this happens from time to time, but not to three best friends all in such a short time frame. And it\u2019s repetitive. While each woman\u2019s story is going on, the other 2 are simply shunted aside to an occasional chorus/conscience role and are indistinguishable. Nothing goes on in their stories whatsoever while they\u2019re on hold. Meanwhile, because of the 60 day deadline, the protagonist at hand seems overly emotional, erratic, short-tempered, and impulsive (otherwise there wouldn\u2019t be enough forward movement of plot, as there isn\u2019t enough time for it to progress at a normal pace.) This does our girls no favors. Also they are all too similar. They all work in male-dominated industries, they all are treated misogynistically at some point and react with anger (can\u2019t just one of them react with humor? Or work in a 21-st century workplace where alpha males are at least forced to keep their sexual-harassment comments to themselves?) They all want to get married and have kids. But they all have only had bad relationships with other Chinese men who apparently are all sexist assholes (not my opinion \u2013 this stereotype is consistent and loud throughout the novel.) They all have a boyfriend from the past resurface during their story, although with varying results. If the structure was changed so that perhaps each chapter alternated narration and all three women had 12 months for their story to unfold, many of the above issue would either go away, or the repetitions would have been so much more obvious when they were side-by-side rather than separated by 100 pages.\nThe stereotyping and yelling and crying all needed to be toned down drastically. There was also some sloppiness that should have been caught in editing. For instance on p. 18 M.J. bumps into a long-ago acquaintance, Kevin, while in the press room at Madison Square Garden. She says \u201cWhat are you doing here?\u201d and when she introduces Kevin to Ming, he says \u201cSo, you and M. J. are old high school pals, huh?\u201d On the very next page she runs into Jagger and says \u201cwhat are you doing here?\u201d (gee, a producer for RealSports, what would he be doing at Madison Square Garden at a Knicks practice?) She introduces him to Kevin, and he says \u201cSo, you knew M.J. back in high school huh?\u201d Also Brady takes out a cigarette in his office! On p. 154 which made me wonder if it was 1986. M.J. has a DVD of favorite Michael Jordan highlights, but sends out her audition clips for sportscaster jobs on VHS. Oh, and both she and Alex drive cars! In New York City! Alex and Lin make 6-figure salaries but M.J. doesn\u2019t, so where does she park her car and why on earth does she have one? It only appears once in one scene, and there\u2019s no reasons he couldn\u2019t have been in a cab or even on the subway.\nAll this being said, I liked the breezy tone. I liked that this was a slightly different take on the usual chick lit genre. I loved that the women all had real jobs and were successful and had their own apartments. I hate the chick lit novels where a confused woman just sits around waiting for life to happen to her so she doesn\u2019t have to make any decisions. While I was very frustrated by this book, I do look forward to their next one to see if hopefully they learned a lot after this one which should make for an improvement.\nOh, and publishers, please stop publishing first-time-novelists of chick lit in hardcover. Just stop it. That\u2019s what original trade paperbacks are for. This was a perfect book for that format, not hardcover.\nIt's certainly true that once an editor, always an editor. But when reading for fun, I want to be able to keep that part of my brain shelved.\n\"Waiting On\" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted here, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

        "title": "Reading Between the Lines: The Stories Stone Can Tell",
        "raw_content": "As with most things in the home, your natural stone surfaces can tell a story. That story may be more than 300 million years in the making, because stone is formed and hewn over the centuries. Offering countless physical and visual differences, natural stone possesses unique features that vary based on where the stone comes from and how it was formed.\nNatural stone surfaces are just that \u2013 naturally occurring substances in the earth\u2019s crust. But depending on where in the earth\u2019s crust the stone was found, and how it was impacted by the elements, stone takes on varying qualities. At its simplest, natural stone can be roughly categorized into the three types of rock: sedimentary, igneous, and metamorphic.\nWhen sediments are washed or blown around until they settle over time under pressure, the result is sedimentary rock. Limestone and travertine are two common types of sedimentary rock.\nFormed when magma \u2013 molten rock from beneath the earth\u2019s surface \u2013 cools and solidifies, one of the most well known types of igneous rock is granite. The movement of the cooling magma, which often traps complex minerals, results in a host of unique patterns.\nMetamorphic rock is created when either sedimentary or igneous rock is placed under intense heat and pressure. This type of rock is found within the earth\u2019s crust, and the deeper the rock is, the higher grade the stone. Slate, found closer to the earth\u2019s surface, and marble, which is created deeper in the crust, are both types of metamorphic rock.\nRegardless of the type of rock, the resulting color, pattern, and texture of natural stone are directly related to how and where the rock was formed. It is the beautiful reason why natural stone patterns are never exactly the same.\nIn each type of rock, there are fissure lines, sometimes visible depending on the cut of the stone. These fissure lines are earth\u2019s scars, which result from movement in the earth that was later repaired. Fissure lines provide inherent character resulting directly from the history of the earth, for example, an earthquake from millions of years ago.\nDots and colors within a stone slab could indicate a number of things. It could be fossilized material, which then changed over the course of time and given the pressure it underwent. It could also be minerals or gemstones caught up in the creation of the stone, which then resulted in a new aesthetic.\nWhen selecting the type of stone to use in your next design project, let its formation help guide your selection. Consider your lifestyle needs, and then find the product that best fits those needs while providing the perfect look for your space.\nThe imperfect qualities of natural stone are what make it unique. If you look closely, you can reveal a world of history in a single slab.\nSource: https://www.thoughtco.com/rock-cycle-geography-1433553\nFeature image: Trav Chiseled & Stacked Slate collections",

        "raw_content": "Chasing Detroit From Above\nThere aren't too many left like Brian Day \u2014 a prevailing beacon of hope for the remaining believers in authentic, substantial photography. Although his day job is the Chief Technology Officer for a healthcare firm in Detroit, photography is what keeps him sane. He describes his photography as love letters to his hometown, \"acknowledging its flaws, but appreciating its beauty, history, architecture, and most importantly, it\u2019s people.\"\nBrian has the privilege of being able to tell a \"fuller, more satisfying story\" through his photographs of Detroit because of his close connection with the place. The city also remains his most significant challenge because of both the spectrum of perceptions about Detroit and the fact that a lifetime of intimacy with a single town has the power to leave one jaded.\nBrian categorizes his work in the following genres of choice, including fine art, street photography, cityscape and documentary. His diverse representation in photography could be expressions of his many inspirations: avant-garde jazz, science fiction (specifically \u201cthe notion of time travel and the idea of visually surreal and yet strangely familiar imagery\u201d) architecture, and a love for people and an ever-changing urban environment.\nOne of the most treasured qualities of Brian Day is his utter humility with his work. Photography is his personal self- therapy and creative outlet for the typical daily stressors of life. His desire for self-betterment is enough to continually propel him as he has no interest in the immediate gratification of social media fame.\n\u201cI started with zero likes and followers and no one lining up to buy my work or ask me about my creative process \u2013 and yet, I absolutely loved making images with no other reward in mind than the personal satisfaction of having made something.\u201d\nHe\u2019s happy to be interviewed, but he knows popularity is not the path to success:\n\u201cI am extremely honored to have this privilege: doing an interview with the largest photography community in the world, the place where I posted my first photo, and the place where I\u2019ve learned so much. But if all of these cool privileges were taken away today, I would continue creating images for myself. I\u2019m happily compelled to learn and make images, and whether or not anyone notices and I hope that I can continue to do so long into the future.\u201d\nBrian began an aerial series in which he uses his Phantom 4 Pro drone to take photographs above freeway overpasses. But why freeways?\n\u201cFreeways are simply kinetic. Always in motion, always changing. More specifically, they represent the movement of humanity; countless life stories shuttling along in near anonymity, moving toward the future. In some respects, those are, ironically, all the same attributes I look for in my other photographic subject matter.\u201d\nOther photos from his aerial series include building overheads and stunning cityscapes.\nAs phenomenal as these photos are, Brian has one large concern with photography in general that he can\u2019t entirely address with his work. Because of the mass amounts of imagery everyone is exposed to daily due to the likes of social media, people are \u201csomewhat desensitized.\u201d This means that photographers hoping to craft some purpose in their work, have to challenge their \u201cvisual perception of subject matter and the execution of their shots\u201d in order to create something compelling.\nBrian\u2019s greatest fear is that talented photographers may stop trying to create images with meaning, simply out of frustration. \u201cI don\u2019t worry about the validity of photography as a medium, but I do worry about the influence of photography over minds and hearts, and the risk that some photographers could become so consumed by the pursuit of social media fame and instant gratification that the quality and intent of the work starts to take a back seat to ubiquity.\u201d\nHe hopes photographers never forget that their work has \u201cthe power to impact minds and hearts and to even motivate actions.\u201d\nEven though Brian spends photography time in the clouds, he hasn\u2019t encountered completely smooth sailing shooting on the ground either. The very first week he purchased his first DSLR, he took it shooting at an iconic abandoned building in Detroit. Arriving earlier than his fellow photography partner, he wandered in alone and eager to capture the essence of the building:\n\u201cI wandered into one large room that had a rusty chair and a gorgeous, dusty shaft of sunlight shining right through a window and onto the chair. It felt a little like a scene from Indiana Jones, and so I scrambled to unpack my gear and set up for a shot. As I prepared to take the shot, leaning over my tripod and fumbling with my camera settings with my back to the entrance of the room, I heard a shout behind me: \u2018Put down the weapon and put your hands in the air!\u2019 I immediately raised both arms, and replied, \u2018I\u2019m just a photographer, I don\u2019t have a weapon!\u2019 I was told to turn around, and when I did, I was confronted with no less than a dozen armed men, pointing their weapons at me.\u201d\nApparently Detroit Police, Customs and Border Protection, and a group whose tactical jackets read \u201cFUGITIVE RECOVERY UNIT\u201d were all searching for an armed fugitive in the area and Brian\u2019s photography equipment gave him the edge that law enforcement took notice of. Moral of the story: Never look too edgy. It\u2019s common knowledge carrying around photography equipment ramps up your edgey-ometer so just be aware.\nIn terms of advice to novice photographers, Brian gave a few feasible actions to try out.\nAllow social media to play a role in your work without defining it.\nEngage in meaningful dialogue that forces you to articulate why you make pictures, not to convince the world that you are good, but to help clarify for yourself what your intentions are. Don\u2019t worry too much about how good your gear is compared to others, but learn everything you can about what you do have, so that you can exploit it creatively.\nExperiment: push your gear and your knowledge to the limit and find out what it can and can\u2019t do, and then figure out how to push it even further.\nRead more, because it can shape and refine your perspective on life, and thus, your visual response to that perspective.\nLearn about other work, because no matter how unique and cool you think you are, you\u2019ll probably learn that at least some of your work is inadvertently highly derivative, which will push you to either evolve into new thinking or risk being a carbon copy of someone else.\u201dFinally, ignore everything I just said and do you.\u201d\nIf you like what you see, be sure to check out Brian\u2019s photostream and his personal website! Brian\u2019s website is concentrated more on his Detroit based series, which also includes video content and an extremely constructive blog! If you\u2019re interested in chasing the work of Brian Day, your first stop should be the M Contemporary Art gallery in the Metro Detroit area to see his solo photo exhibition now! In May, he will also be participating in an exhibit in Paris!\nHappy Monday everyone!

        "title": "Manuka Natural: Dust mites preventing sleep",
        "raw_content": "Dust mites preventing sleep\nIf you are already having trouble sleeping, stop reading this right now. I\u2019m going to talk to you today about dust mites.\nWhat, you might ask, do dust mites have to do with sleeping? My bed isn\u2019t dusty. Well, they get their name from the fact that these tiny creatures (they\u2019re half the size of the period at the end of this sentence) shed their skins, and this cast-off skin plus their dried fecal material get airborne and become dust. Researchers think more than 50 percent of the cases of asthma, eczema and hay fever are caused by dust mites.\nBut it isn\u2019t the dried skin and droppings floating around in the air that is why I asked about your sleep habits. You see, these mites spend all of their time in your bed. In fact, the estimates run anywhere from 100,000 to 10 million mites can be sharing your mattress with you.\nOf course, you\u2019ll never see them, no matter how many there are. Their tiny size and their translucent bodies make them, for all intents and purposes, invisible. The inventor of the microscope, Anton van Leeuwenhoek, was the first person to actually observe them back in 1694. You can imagine the sleepless nights he had for a while. These mites are downright ugly to look at.\nThe reason they like your bed so much is that it\u2019s an almost perfect environment for them. Their favorite food is you -- or what used to be you. They don\u2019t chew your flesh or suck your blood. They eat the dead skin you shed. You lose over 50 million skin cells every week, and that\u2019s if you haven\u2019t been running around outside getting sunburned. I suppose that would be like grilled steaks to these little guys.\nAdd to that the warm and humid conditions under your blankets and they live happy but short lives. The humidity is the key. They like it around 70 percent or higher. In the old days, this wasn\u2019t a problem. Our homes were more or less exposed to the same humidity as existed outside, but with the advent of air conditioning and central heating, that changed radically. Once the humidity drops below 50 percent, dust mites shrivel up and die.\nIt turns out that an unmade bed is unappealing to them, whereas a tightly fitted, well-made bed (like we had to do in the military) allows them to survive quite well. Of course, beds aren\u2019t the only place they can live. A dust mite can snuggle into upholstered furniture, in shag or other long-fibered carpets or rugs and in plush toys.\nYou\u2019ll never completely eliminate dust mites from your home -- can\u2019t be done -- but you can do things to significantly reduce their numbers.\nStart with regular vacuuming. Go over your carpets, curtains, furniture and rugs. This will pick up skin flakes and fecal material as well as mites. Throw away the bag once you\u2019re through. Dust mites can live inside of the bag just as well, if not better, as they can in your bed. Use mattress covers that are specifically designed to inhibit dust mites. Remove soft toys from the bedroom or periodically wash them in hot water or freeze them for 24 hours. If you decide to freeze them, you\u2019re still going to need to clean them to remove the allergens.- www.sunherald.com/\nLabels: Dust Mites",

        "raw_content": "The exchange of electronic documents in business processes has now become a matter of course. The quality of these documents therefore plays an important role in ensuring smooth operation. Many organizations have been surprised by the poor quality of the files delivered and are forced to take action by processing issues and even production downtime.\nAn important measure is the establishment of a quality control system for incoming documents - a quality gate, as we call it. Before this can be done, one has to be clear about what quality means. In this context, we can distinguish two types of quality, the inherent quality and the dedicated quality. Inherent quality is usually understood as:\nConformance with the file format specification (ISO 32'000)\nEfficient, non-redundant and memory-friendly use of the PDF language\nDedicated quality is mostly focused on applications such as:\nFor example, it is important for files to be printed that the fonts and colors are optimized, but usually no structural information is needed. And for archiving, the files must conform to the PDF/A standard, whereas this is not necessary for printing.\nSuch a quality gate must therefore offer the following functions:\nValidation: standard conformance checks as well as configurable custom checks such as minimum resolution of scanned images, legibility of text, etc.\nRepair and conversion: Fix file corruptions, ensure conformity with a standard such as PDF/A.\nOptimization: reduce file size, merge and subset fonts, convert colors, adapt resolution of images.\nDigital Signing: seal the document, enable detection and prevention of unauthorized modifications.\nThe introduction of a quality control system costs money. But as indicated in the slogan at the beginning: Customers and employees will not remember the initial cost, but the problems solved by the better quality. And this saves the most important cost: the cost of a damaged reputation.\nDerek Simmons August 31, 2018 at 6:18 PM\nThanks for the article, a lot of interesting and useful info. I also often encounter poor-quality PDF files - fuzzy scan, loss of image quality, strange fonts. And just recently I faced the same problems when I was preparing a grouped frequency distribution table for my statistic assignment at the university. The file that I needed to use for it was very poorly processed, so I had to look for information on third-party resources.",

        "raw_content": "Point & Figure Charting reduces the importance of time on a chart and instead focuses on price movements. Point & Figure charts are made up of X's and O's, X's being new highs and O's being new lows. There are two inputs to a Point & Figure chart:\nBox Size: The size of movement required to add an \u201cX\" or an \u201cO\". For example, a stock at a price of $20 may have a box size of $1. This means that an increase from $20.01 to a high of $21.34 means another \u201cX\" is added. If the high price only increased to $20.99, then another \u201cX\" is not added because the stock didn't close another box size ($1) more.\nReversal Amount: The size of reversal before another column is added to a Point & Figure chart. To illustrate, if the reversal amount is $3, then the $20 stock would have to fall down to $17 before a new column (in this example of O's) would be started.\nOne of the main uses for Point & Figure charts, and the one emphasized in this section, is that Point & Figure charts make it easier for traders to see classic chart patterns. In the chart below of the E-mini S&P 500 Future, the Point & Figure chart emphasized support and resistance lines as well as areas of price breakouts:\nAgain, the Point & Figure chart makes it easy for traders to see the double bottom pattern below in the chart of the E-mini S&P 500 Futures contract:\nThe e-mini chart above illustrates the two bottoms of the double bottom pattern, as well as the confirmation line that is pierced, resulting in a potential buying opportunity.\nPoint & Figure is a very unique way to plot market action. The strongsuit of Point & Figure charting is that it eliminates the element of time and focuses on price.",

        "raw_content": "Mercedes-Benz and Casey Neistat \u2013 Influencer Marketing done right\nApril 29, 2016 2:45 pm Published by Webfluential\nWhen we think of Mercedes-Benz we think of luxury and the high life. Casey Neistat is a YouTuber and he will happily admit that neither luxury or the high life is part of what he does. How does a luxury car brand like Mercedes and Neistat end up working on an advertising project?\nTwo words: Influencer Marketing\nAs other digital marketing efforts are becoming less and less effective, brands want to reach audiences that are engaged. Influencer Marketing is a great way of doing this, but sometimes the brand restricts influencers to what can or can not be done.\nProblem is: Influencers know their audience best.\nIn a way it\u2019s similar to how Hollywood works. Creatives create something for an audience, then producers, the production studio and network executives apply changes as they see fit, because they are, after all, fronting the bill.\nToo many cooks really do spoil the broth, especially when the most vocal cooks don\u2019t know what the people in the restuarant want to eat.\nMercedes-Benz have had multiple commercials for many cars over the years and most of these commercials cater to the same audience: High LSM males. If you\u2019re in advertising you\u2019ll know that target market well!\nMercedes commercials look fantastic, but for most of us it just leaves us wishing we could actually afford one of those beautiful luxury cars. The marketing team at Mercedes realised this, and so set out to reach a new audience \u2013 but to do this they had to try something they hadn\u2019t done before.\nThis new audience is not the usual target \u2013 they are people like you and me, people like Casey Neistat, people who just want to have fun, people that Mercedes-Benz don\u2019t really understand. This can be a problem, for any marketing team. Luckily the solution is obvious. Just find someone who understands the audience and let them create \u2013 no strings attached.\nCasey Neistat stepped up to the plate and Mercedes-Benz armed him with the new CLA Class and bags full of money. Their instructions to Casey? Nothing.\n\u201cThere\u2019s a huge insecurity on my part that my audience might perceive this as: this is something a company is directing, or this is a company that wants to be something else, or this is something that a company is pushing in a certain direction.\u201d said Neistat about his fears when taking on this project.\nRight from day one, Neistat and his team did not hide a thing from their audience. They made a four-part video series to help showcase their process and the production of the CLA Class commercial. Like any good influencer, Neistat had all cards on the table where his audience could see them.\nThe resulting commercial is probably the best commercial that has even been made for Mercedes-Benz. Instead of making you feel like you need to earn more, the commercial makes you feel like you want to have fun.\nIt\u2019s because of this honesty that influencers have with their audience, that there is a different type of connection. A connection that can change behaviour and influence purchasing decisions.\nThe audience also want to support the influencer, especially if branded content is not forced on them under false pretenses. Even though content might be paid for or sponsored, the audience will not mind if the content has been created for them. In fact, in most cases the audience will support the brand, because the brand supports the influencer.\nThis shows us that trust between brand and influencer is key.\nIt\u2019s only natural for a brand to be concerned about what will happen to their brand when placed in the hands of an influencer. Influencer Marketing is the future of marketing, but it will be critical for brands to identify influencers that understand branding and marketing as well as they understand their audience.\nA real influencer builds his own audience using branding and marketing skills. If a brand can trust an influencer, and give them the creative freedom they deserve, not only will the campaign be a success but a mutually beneficial relationship will blossom between the two parties.\nOnce a mutually beneficial working relationship is created between brand and influencer, the influencer becomes a brand ambassador for life \u2013 and that is more valuable than any other form of media a brand can buy.",

        "raw_content": "When I Hear the Term \u201cCitizen Journalist,\u201d I Reach For My Pistol! (The Blogging Rage)\nWhen I hear the term \u201ccitizen journalist,\u201d I reach for my pistol, to mangle a famously mangled quote.\nThe notion that hundreds of part-time gadflies, blowhards, tub-thumpers, students and well-meaning good-government types can replace real journalism is silly. Much of the corporate media has embraced this fad for a simple reason: it costs less to have a housewife blog from the city council meeting for free. Whether she has the time, seasoning, and street smarts to uncover what\u2019s really going on and put it in context for readers is highly unlikely.\nThat the blogosphere has embraced it is also predictable: the \u201ccitizen journalist\u201d seems like another well-deserved payback to that arrogant \u201cmainstream media.\u201d The reality is that most of us bring little original reporting to our sites. Without real professional journalists doing their work, the blogosphere would have little to talk about. And the most successful blog news sites, such as Josh Marshall\u2019s Talking Points Memo, use traditional journalistic techniques.\nHaving said all this, \u201ccitizen journalists,\u201d the Internet, email and other innovations of recent years bring value to the work of journalism, provided they are properly and prudently employed. That they are changing the work is unquestionable. Let me use a generally positive example: the Internet. The Web allows a reporter or columnist to do research in a few minutes that once might have taken hours or days. When I was starting out as a financial reporter, we paid a service to pull Securities and Exchange Commission reports in Washington, then FedEx them to us. Now they can be seen online instantly. I can read several newspapers a day online, and set up customized filters for the information I want.\nSimilarly, working journalists use email to do tasks that once took much more time and trouble. I can communicate instantly with a corporate PR department, or send a query to a source, or place a notice online for readers to contact me if I need \u201creal life\u201d examples for a story. Email allows readers to contact journalists as never before, whether to complement, give information or rant and rave. I\u2019ve received more than one death threat through this wonderful new medium.\nThese innovations, naturally, can breed laziness and trouble. I\u2019ve heard old-time homicide detectives say the same thing about DNA evidence \u2013 \u201cthe new guys don\u2019t know how to work without it.\u201d Young journalists risk knowing more how to handle video streaming than to conduct an effective interview with a critical and hostile source. Much information on the Web is erroneous. An over-reliance on e-mail can take away the human contact, where journalists can detect nuance and shading and that golden moment where the news really slips out. Companies and government have been effective in exploiting the Internet to disseminate their particular spin on stories; it\u2019s tempting to use it and leave it at that. The same could be true for journalists accepting a particular story-line that develops on the Web. Thus the journalist must fall back on traditional techniques of checking sources, corroborating information, applying the skepticism, context and knowledge that takes years to learn, and \u201cif your mother tells you she loves you, check it out.\u201d\nAs for \u201ccitizen journalists,\u201d they used to be called tipsters, and they can bring value. Devices such a camera-equipped cell phones, text-messaging and computers on wi-fi allow everyday people to send in information, some of which might be newsworthy. But their use calls for vigilant editing \u2013 at a time when the old roles of newspaper editors have morphed into a maelstrom of attending meetings, slinging copy and gathering doo-dads for graphics. I wonder if the care and quality are still being applied many places. More importantly, \u201ccitizen journalists\u201d generally can\u2019t and won\u2019t do the work that has been performed by paid professionals. Journalism has seen its share of the lazy and knavish. But in general, these professionals have for decades provided an invaluable, and irreplaceable, public service in a democracy.\nNot everybody can report intelligently or intelligibly on the workings of business, even though corporations and the capital markets have more power over the lives of average Americans than at any time in history. Not everybody can bring the news from foreign capitals, war zones, genocides and emerging powers, even though in the era of globalization these events will have profound consequences for Americans. Not everyone can spend the months it takes to dig out malfeasance in institutions such as government, health care and business that costs tax dollars, retirement nest eggs and even lives. Done well, this journalism explains the world, uncovers injustice and is essential for a self-governing people. Corporate newspapers have been cutting back these critical functions for years. They won\u2019t be replaced by \u201ccitizen journalists.\u201d This is the work of real journalists who have spent years honing a complicated craft, who have been increasingly thrown out of work.\nThe major corporate newspaper owners have long been the prisoners of a group think that has devalued these journalistic skills, somehow telling themselves that technology would save them, or technology was the danger, or both. \u201cGet a great story and put it in the paper (or online)\u201d remains the reality. The trouble the newspaper industry faces is largely the failure of a business plan involving monopolies, exorbitant advertising rates, an unwillingness to invest in research and development, and, finally, a jettisoning of journalism to chase assorted fads.\nThe results have been predictably dismal.\nPosted in Business, Journalism, Media, Newspapers & the Net, Publishing, Technology",

        "raw_content": "Anyway, all down the line (I confess that I looked that one up), people are complaining that they can\u2019t get (no) satisfaction. The Court of Appeal has just rejected a challenge by residents\u2019 groups and councils from along the route. Ministers are urging opponents not to waste taxpayers\u2019 money on legal challenges, although what else they\u2019re supposed to do is not clear: just give up and agree with it, I suppose. I certainly agree that we shouldn\u2019t be wasting taxpayers\u2019 money (after all, some of it came out of my pocket).\nThere are still numerous questions about whether or not the sums add up. I\u2019d suggest that the government\u2019s recent track record isn\u2019t that great \u2013 for example, there\u2019s probably still time to get a revised bid in for the West Coast mainline franchise if you\u2019re interested. I\u2019m not claiming it\u2019s easy because obviously it\u2019s not. However, perhaps this scope for error means that we should exercise a bit more caution when such big issues and sums of money are involved. Here are a few related thoughts. Firstly, we\u2019re told how well high speed rail links work in countries like France and Germany (although cities in these countries tend to be much further apart, so we\u2019re not really comparing like with like) and how supportive these countries are of the HS2 plans. We\u2019re also told how many jobs will be created by the new scheme. What seems to be overlooked is that many of these jobs will probably go to engineering companies in (you\u2019ve guessed it) France and Germany, or be fixed-term construction jobs.\nSo if, despite of all the objections and objectors, it really is full steam ahead, what are the consequences? People will be able to travel a little faster between a few of our cities; a few people will benefit (assuming they can afford the fares); and a few people will get very rich. Quite a lot of people along the line will suffer; see their properties blighted; and get no discernible benefit whatsoever (in fact their local train services might even diminish). Ask yourself how much could be accomplished if we spread out the estimated (revised once so far and only going upwards) budget of \u00a342.6bn amongst the regions to undertake numerous smaller improvement projects. We might lessen the attraction of our biggest city and create a few real local jobs as well. Of course, a few MPs might have to sit for a while longer in their all-expenses-paid first-class compartments. I can almost hear you sigh (you might need to look that one up too) with the injustice of it all: I certainly just did.\nSadly, as the self-proclaimed \u2018greatest rock \u2018n\u2019 roll band in the world\u2019 once said, \u2018You can\u2019t always get what you want\u2019.

Peter, of course, is the guy who first told me about Thiri Video (where he got this and other cassettes and where I got dozens of CDs); we went there together for the first time last summer.\nMy computer has been in the shop for a few days--nothing horrible, relax. But that's why I haven't been posting. I'll start up again later this week or this weekend. Meanwhile, this rather delicious recording might, I hope, inspire a few of you to see Khine Htoo, along with other Burmese pop artists Tin Zar Maw, Chaw Su Khin and Supan Htwar this Saturday, June 30 at the LaGuardia Performing Arts Center in Long Island City. (Get details here.)\nMore soon; I promise.\nFairuz | Best of Fairuz\nListen to \"Mush Qasah Hay\"\nThis being a post about Fairuz, one of the greatest living artists on the planet, a woman with a voice so powerful, so soulful, it was capable of bringing moments of peace between Israelis and Palestinians, it seems manifestly appropriate that I begin this post by talking about the Music Industry.\nOh My Fucking God, please tell me, Gary, that you're not going to add to the Emily White slash David Lowery meme. We've already read dozens, maybe hundreds of articles, tweets and blog posts about it. Please, Gary. Please. Not that.\nLook. I don't want to add to it. For one thing, I don't care about white alt rockers of the 80s and 90s and I most certainly do not care about anything involving NPR. For another, you've already made up your mind, one way or the other.\nThat said, I implore you to listen to the Fairuz sample above and tell me, even if it involves scraping the last honest layer of sentiment from your nearly emptied-out heart, honestly and truly whether or not this music has even the slightest bit to do with the White / Lowery debate. Right? Right. I mean, right.\nIt has nothing whatsoever to do with it. Because this song--as is true of most, maybe even all of the songs on this terrifyingly sublime CD--is neither yelp nor yawp nor for that matter 80s/90s ironicized yelp or yawp. It is an extended moment of formalized, yes, but extremely convincing emotive realization. It isn't, in other words, the kind of shit that the music industry is trying to sell you; nor is it the kind of shit that you (\"you\" being NPR interns) are illegally downloading. That shit is one thing and one thing only: Product. They know it. You know it. We all know it. And that's all it is. It isn't, by any stretch of the imagination, art. It feeds an immediate, gnawing need, like a cigarette. And, just as quickly, it's forgotten.\nIt absolutely sickened me to read David Lowery's suggestion that illegal downloading might have contributed in any way to the suicide deaths of Vic Chesnutt and Mark Linkous. Like David, I've had two friends, both artists, who have taken their own lives. Both were poets. One of them, oddly enough, wrote a book titled Product, which I--in my 20s in San Francisco--published two decades ago.\nThe poet who wrote the book titled Product was seriously ill. His illness had much to do with his suicide. His economic situation had a lot to do with his suicide as well (he was on SSDI). But what ultimately led to it was his decision and desire to commit the act of suicide. There are plenty of poets who are or were in as dire or worse straights, physically and economically, who just kept on living, some of whom kept on writing poetry, despite the fact that it doesn't, ever, sell.\nThe fact that there are people, lots of people, with just enough twit of brain to cheer on David Lowery's rant completely baffles and saddens me. Really? Really? Some unpaid laborer (cough!) at NP effing R admits to getting whatever she can for free (just like, uh, her \"employer\"), and this sets you off? Pushes you over whatever brink exists between sanity and the completely insane act of publicly making a connection between willful suicide and downloading crappy, forgettable pop and \"alt\" rock music?\nGive me a fucking break. Where--in all of this insane debate--is the suggestion, anywhere, that the music industry might have some possible responsibility here? Or that musicians who willfully enter into contracts with these corporate scum have a responsibility to themselves? If you want to look at producing music as a livelihood, as a profession, as a job, then who is your employer? The audience? No, no, no, no, no. It's the music industry. It's your label. It's your label that isn't giving you vacation time. Who isn't providing you with health care. It's your fucking label who reaps everything you sow and maybe tosses you whatever coagulated bits are left after they've finished sucking the blood from your labor. If they even do that much. You signed the contract, dumbass, not the audience.\nThe music industry switched over to digital in the first place for one reason and one reason only: They saw that they could resell the same sad albums by Pink Floyd and Bruce Springsteen on this new format to the same poor suckers who had bought them on vinyl. Their greed led to the greed of everyone taking advantage of the fact that this new format is easily shared. Period, end of discussion. You want to make things right, by which I mean profitable, again? End digital and go back to analog. Or come up with some other solution.\nI'm not sure what's worse: that people like David Lowery who imagine they are artists and not what they really are, freelance contractors, have never successfully fought for their rights as laborers and instead blamed everything on the general public, or that people like David Lowery and his employer have no idea who Fairuz is and why she makes everything they've ever done in their lives, beyond making or not making money, ultimately moot. What does it say that the crux of this debate is around making money and not making art?\nIf you want to make money and you can't make money making music, then do something else and shut the fuck up so people who care about music can hear people who are, like Fairuz, actually making it.\nUPDATE: Another poet, a great one, and a great friend, Rodney Koeneke sent along a link to the video above in response to this post, so I thought I'd pop it into the mix. Thank you, Rodney!\nPosted by Gary at Thursday, June 21, 2012 13 comments:\nLabels: folk, Lebanon, pop\nOsadebe | Best of Osadebe\nListen to \"Osadebe 77\"\nThis will likely be the last Nigerian album I'll post for a while, although I do still have a couple more I found at Blessing Udeagu. For one thing, my Burmese connection came through last week and I'm gearing up to post the lot of it. (It's fabulous.) For another, since I started posting the African music a week or two ago, the traffic on this blog has gone through the roof. I assume it's because most people wandering around the various interlinked music blogs are looking for African music, but that's just an assumption. Maybe I've just got more visitors. If the stats take a dive, I'll know for sure.\nThis is an odd collection of Chief Stephen Osita Osadebe--a couple of the tracks have surface noise, having been clearly ripped from LPs. There is not a single hit on the publisher's name anywhere online, so I'm guessing they're out of business, or just internet shy, which seems impossible in this day and age.\nIn any event, this is a pretty fabulous collection and I hope you enjoy it.\nPosted by Gary at Friday, June 15, 2012 2 comments:\nLabels: Highlife, Nigeria, pop\nListen to \"Nmere Giri\" by the Apostles\nListen to Aktion's \"Sugar Daddy\"\nBy way of explanation, here is the email I received last night from John B at the fabulous Likembe in response to this earlier posting of Flashback 1:\nGary: I've uploaded \"Flashback II\" for you (sorry no cover). Feel free to share. I got this from the Comb & Razor blog a few years ago, so if you post it, give Uchenna some props.\nThank you so much, John and Uchenna!\nOsadebe | Classic Hits Vol. 1\nListen to \"Akonam\"\nAnother stunner from Blessing Udeagu in Corona, Queens.\nChief Stephen Osita Osadebe, better known as simply Osadebe, was among the most famous Igbo highlife musicians, known for an elastic style that accommodated everything from bolero and calypso to jazz and waltz. He released about 250 songs in his lifetime, though reportedly wrote more than 500. He died in 2007 at the age of 69.\nFekereaddis Nekatebeb | Embi\nIt looks like it's going to be a gray, possibly rainy day today and, although I received a call from my Burmese connection, Zaw, I'm not sure if I'll be getting out. Meanwhile, as I sit here sipping, yes, Ethiopian coffee, here's another album from the Federal Democratic Republic found on a recent trip to Washington, DC, for you to get your groove on to. (Did I just say that?)\nSir Victor Uwaifo | Greatest Hits Vol. 1\nListen to \"Guitar Boy\"\nMy God, but I love Queens. Have I expressed my undying love for this borough before? As far as I'm concerned, it's the greatest city in America.\nAs I've hinted in the last week or so, I've been waiting for My Burmese Ship to Come In--specifically, Zaw at Thiri Video has been culling his archives for a number of CDs he says he has of older, more traditional Burmese music, which he promised to have ready for me last weekend. Well, on the appointed day I made the trip to Elmhurst ... only to find that, in fact, the CDs weren't ready for me.\nBut in Queens, when one door shuts, other doors open. As I wandered around the eastern edges of Elmhurst, suddenly realizing I was lost, I scooted under an awning to check the GPS on my phone. When I looked up, on another awning, two or three doors down, I saw the words \"African Movies.\" What? Oh, my.\nBlessing Udeagu (99-08 Lewis Avenue) is ostensibly a copy shop, with several photocopy machines, that also happens to be a used bookstore (there were dozens of old, dog-eared books fading in the storefront windows), a Nigerian DVD store (a whole wall of them, in fact) AND an outlet for African music, mostly from Nigeria and Ghana.\nI asked the shop keep if it might be okay if I looked through the CDs. \"They're African,\" she warned me. I nodded my head and proceeded to dig through what they had. After determining that each CD was $5, I chose a few that looked most promising and brought them up to the register. \"These are in African,\" she reminded me. I gave her a Readers Digest version of my Ye Olde \"I Happen to Like Music From All Over the World\" assurance, which didn't, frankly, seem to assuage her concern that I might be buying the wrong music. With a pitying look, she put the handful of CDs I'd plucked out into a plastic bag and, shaking her head, took the money from my now visibly shaking hands.\n\"Sir\" Victor Uwaifo is the legendary inventor of Joromi, which to my ears sounds like Highlife, which tells you just how little I know about Nigerian music. Uwaifo started recording in the 1960s and became famous for playing his guitar, live, with his tongue and feet in addition to his rather impressively dexterous fingers.\nI'm supposed to check back in with Zaw next weekend; if I do, and if My Ship has come in, I'll be posting an awful lot of Burmese music in the next few weeks. Until then, if you like Nigerian music, you might want to check back here a few times in the coming days.\nIn other news: I think I'm going to try Twitter. Follow me here.\nLabels: Highlife, Joromi, Nigeria\n5'Nizza | 05\nListen to \"\u041e\u0433\u043e\u043d\u044c \u0418 \u042f\"\nListen to \"\u041c\u043e\u0440\u044f\u0447\u043e\u043a\"\nFound for $2 on Saturday in a Russian or perhaps Ukrainian media store on 108 Street in the gray area between Elmhurst, Corona and Forest Hills. Yes, I realize that, technically, there is no such \"gray area\"; I mean to me. As in, I don't honestly know what neighborhood I was in.\nI'll be writing more about my Saturday adventures a bit later in the week as I post a few things I found that day from--are you sitting down?--Nigeria. I had meant to write about and post it all on Sunday, but for some reason Divshare wasn't uploading anything. (The third time since I upgraded that there's been a serious problem upping things.)\nMeanwhile, I can't tell you how thrilled I was when I saw this thing in the store. And that all CDs in the store were on sale (\"Just for today,\" the shop keep informed me) for $2. Because I had a sense of who these guys are, or were, from this album (which also turns out to be Ukrainian, not Russian).\nThis is 5'NIzza's third and last album; the duo, which formed in 2000, was not terribly prolific. But what they put out was, if this CD is any indication, totally sublime. Relying on nothing but guitar and vocals, the duo sounds, to my ears anyway, like some of the best Brazilian pop I've ever heard, sonically rich, fluid, various.\nLabels: hip-hop, pop, rap, Ukraine\nVerse, Stripped | Exhibit\nThis show, which I believe was curated by Katherine Litwin, just opened in Chicago at the venerable Poetry Foundation. It includes the original artwork of a few of my poetry comics, along with that of fellow travelers Sommer Browning, Bianca Stone, and Paul K. Tunis. Books by Kenneth Koch and (my all-time biggest hero) Joe Brainard will also be on view. My fellow cartoonist and occasional hangout pal Matt Madden will be giving a talk on the intersection of poetry and comics on August 1, the day after my 50th birthday. And, yes, I plan to be there for Matt's talk (as do the other artists), so say hi if you're there.\nLabels: comics, Poetry",

She has written several books that address the work she does, including Snake Oil: The Art of Healing and Truth-Telling (Jericho Books, 2014), but Love Heals (Thomas Nelson, Sept. 5) is her first gift book.\nThe idea was pitched to her by editors at Thomas Nelson at the Thistle Stop Cafe in Nashville, which serves as the headquarters for the Thistle Farms community.\n\u201cIt took me about 10 minutes to say I\u2019m interested,\u201d said Stevens, who lives in Nashville with her husband, songwriter Marcus Hummon, and their three sons. \u201cLove Heals is the first book where the goal is to share the story of Thistle Farms, but also to get readers to think about how they can be part of this community of healing for women.\u201d\nEach chapter features stories, poetry, photography, advice, and inspirational quotes centered on the healing qualities of compassion, forgiveness, daily rituals, and more. It is designed to help readers learn to love themselves and others despite shortcomings, trauma, and brokenness, according to Stevens.\n\u201cI hope readers come away inspired to do more justice in the world and with a renewed sense that, whatever walk they\u2019re on, they are headed in the right direction, or that they turn to head in the right direction [toward healing],\u201d she said.\nAs a victim of child abuse, Stevens\u2019 path to healing began in 1997 when she welcomed five women who had been victims of trafficking, violence, and addiction into the first Thistle Farms facility. Twenty years later, the two-year residential program in Nashville houses 32 women at a time. Sister organizations have also sprung up around the country based on the farm\u2019s model, which helps women gain economic freedom through distributing and selling their natural home and body products.\nOne of the stories Stevens tells in Love Heals follows Tracey who was charged with the murder of her employer\u2014a drug dealer who had beaten and shot her in the past. Rather than go to jail, Tracey was sentenced to Thistle Farms (and ordered to wear an ankle monitor). Tracey was on probation for 10 years, but went on to become one of the directors of Thistle Farms.\n\u201cLike the healed leper, like the person with the spinal cord injury trying to walk, or like Tracey freed from jail, we can feel the amazing, healing power of mercy,\u201d Stevens writes in Love Heals. \u201cIn turn, we can feel gratitude and offer mercy to those around us.\u201d\nStevens\u2019 background and the content in Love Heals was an easy fit for Nelson and its parent company, HarperCollins Christian Publishing, according to Laura Minchew, senior v-p publisher, gift books. \u201cBecca Stevens and Thistle Farms are internationally recognized for helping change lives through love and faith,\u201d she said. \u201cThis book shows the grittiness, beauty, and grace of faith in action.\u201d\nNelson\u2019s conducted a pre-order campaign for the book offering a free printable poster as well as e-blasts scheduled through Thistle Farms and HCCP. The publisher is also planning Facebook Live events with surprise guests, social media advertising, gift trade advertising, and Nashville launch parties at Thistle Farms, Parnassus Books, and Barnes Noble, according to Michael Aulisio, v-p of marketing, gift books, Tommy Nelson children\u2019s books and new media.\nPrevious articleBeijing\u2019s Bold New Censorship\nNext articleClaiming Liberal Bias, Pub Drops Association with \u2018NYT\u2019 Bestseller Lists\nWhat to read this summer: 75 best books, from novels to...\n\u2018Trees\u2019 Takes Root in France, Germany",

        "raw_content": "Thieving Weasels by Billy Taylor\nLight-hearted, fast and fun, this isn't a book that I would normally have picked up had it not been for Penguin's First to Read program.\nI was entertained by this book, and I did enjoy most of it, but I think the target audience is probably teenage boys and I suspect they would appreciate it a lot more than I did. It's difficult to truly develop a full cast of characters in such a short novel, but the author manages to get the reader rooting for Skip and there are a range of disreputable characters (mainly Skip's family) that we come to know and you can fully feel the impact of them on his life. It was fun but it just wasn't particularly compelling or engaging for me. I didn't have a problem with reading a couple of chapters and then putting it down for a while. The plot is cleverly developed and the final scene wraps everything up nicely. It's a quirky coming of age novel and has enough humour and enough action to keep most people reading to the end.",

        "raw_content": "You are here: Home / Transcending Borders / Expat Benefit Frauds: It\u2019s Not Really Benefitting Us\nExpat Benefit Frauds: It\u2019s Not Really Benefitting Us\nUnless you\u2019re one of us yourself, the world of expats is probably this big black hole of visas, tax issues, remittances and more that you can\u2019t be bothered to concern yourself with. And I can\u2019t blame you \u2013 expat issues aren\u2019t something anyone would choose to read up on in their free time. However, as the world gets \u201cflatter and flatter\u201d and borders become more and more blurred with people working remotely and moving overseas, the number of expats is exponentially increasing. Unfortunately, so is the number of expat benefit frauds, which really can affect regular taxpayers, expats or not. And that\u2019s why it\u2019s important for you, dear reader, to be at least slightly aware of the happenings in the world of expatriates.\nLet\u2019s start with the basics: Who exactly qualifies as an expatriate? In simple terms, and as explained by Investopedia, an expatriate is \u201can individual living in a country other than their country of citizenship, often temporarily and for work reasons. An expatriate can also be an individual who has relinquished citizenship in their home country to become a citizen of another.\u201d For example, if you are a US citizen, and your company sends you to their office in the UK for a long period of time, you would be considered an expatriate. As of May 2013, the State Department of the US estimated that there were more than 7 million US citizens living abroad. BBC estimates that there are around 5.5 million British people who live abroad.\nUnfortunately, not all expats have strong moral tendencies. In fact, judging by the amount of benefit frauds committed, it is almost as though there is purposeful disregard for the law since the chances of getting caught while overseas seems less. What exactly is a benefit fraud then? In basic terms, this is when those living abroad try to claim money in their home country. You might have heard of one high profiler, Dean Stuart Ahmed. Ahmed continued to claim \u201cdisability benefits\u201d, while he was secretly building a portfolio of luxury properties over 15 years! This is no small joke. According to the Department of Work and Pensions (DWP) in the UK, during the last fiscal year, approximately 82 million pounds were lost as a result of benefit fraud overpayments to expats who failed to mention that they were living or traveling abroad. That\u2019s 82 million pounds of taxpayers\u2019 money.\nThis year, with more people leaving to retire abroad, the British Government has decided to crackdown on those living overseas. The DWP has clearly stated that falsely taking payments, and failure to report a change in living circumstance could lead to prosecution and a jail sentence. While some may not think that going abroad and claiming certain benefits is a serious crime, it essentially amounts to theft, which is of course taken seriously by the law. The above-mentioned Dean Stuart Ahmed for example was jailed for 32 months and his property was taken away. With Spain being the top destination with the highest number of fraud cases, the DWP has set up a special team a free hotline to report fraudsters in Spain.\nThough expat benefit frauds might seem like a distant problem to the regular citizen, the large amounts of taxpayers\u2019 money being diverted and lost proves that it is not. With the constant rise of technological innovations that bring us closer and closer together, and the increasing ease of travel, one can only conclude that the number of expatriates will multiply. We can cross out fingers and hope that these frauds also do not multiply, but in all probability, this will not be the case. Instead, being aware of the risks of expat benefit fraud enables us to put into place necessary measures to control it, and prevent it from becoming an even bigger problem.\nAkshata is a freelance writer who majored in International Political Economy and English Literature, with a passion for exploring the world.

        "raw_content": "After nine years and countless hours of service, Jordan Montgomery spent last Saturday completing the very last task he needed to become an Eagle Scout, the highest rank attainable for Boy Scouts.\nFor his project, the 17-year-old wanted to support Ricky\u2019s Retreat, an AIDS hospice in his hometown of Bakersfield, California. He converted an old carport into an enclosed storage unit, a place where the hospice staff could store donated wheelchairs and hospital beds.\nThe building effort brought together volunteers from two very different parts of Montgomery\u2019s life - the members of the Mormon community that he was raised in and that sponsors his Boy Scouts troop, and members of the local LGBT community.\nWhile his fellow troop members were accepting of Jordan after he came out, his mother Wendy Montgomery claims Mormon troop leaders didn\u2019t always treat Jordan well. Some called him hurtful names, she said, and others made it tough for him to earn badges. It got so tough that the family switched scouting troops.\nThe program ends when boys turn 18, at which point many apply to become scout leaders. Although he could have applied to become a leader, Wendy says Jordan plans to leave the scouting world after receiving his Eagle Scout badge.\n\u201cHe\u2019s just fought too hard to get this far and he\u2019s done fighting, \u201d Wendy said. \u201cThe church has made its position clear, that he\u2019s seen as not good enough, unworthy. They don\u2019t want him to be a part of their organization.\u201d\nCredit: Wendy Montgomery\nThe troop leader at Jordan's previous unit did not respond to a Huffington Post request for comment. Jordan's current Scoutmaster, Michael Phillips, said the family may have had bad experiences in the previous troop, but he doesn't know details about it. Since Jordan has been at his current troop, Phillips said, he hasn't discouraged him from participating in any activities.\n\"We\u2019re all individuals in different troops and everyone has different ways they treat people, \" Phillips told HuffPost. \"I'd hope everyone would be welcoming to all the boys that want to participate in scouting.\"\nThe Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day is the nation\u2019s largest sponsor of scouting, according to the Associated Press, serving more than 427, 000 boys in nearly 38, 000 scout units. But that may soon change. In a statement, the church has announced that it is re-evaluating its links with the Boy Scouts in America program, after the national organization\u2019s executive board voted on Monday to admit openly gay Scout leaders.\n\u201cThe Church has always welcomed all boys to its Scouting units regardless of sexual orientation. However, the admission of openly gay leaders is inconsistent with the doctrines of the Church and what have traditionally been the values of the Boy Scouts of America, \u201d the church said in its statement.\nThe 45-12 vote, the result of years of introspection within the organization, prompted many gay Eagle Scouts to sign up for volunteer positions. However, church-affiliated troops are still free to exclude LGBT adults from leadership positions.\nThe United Methodist Church and the Roman Catholic Church, also significant sponsors of Boy Scouts programs, both endorsed the new policy. The Methodist Church is leaving decisions about accepting LGBT scout leaders up to individual church units. The Roman Catholic Church, although wary about the change, is \u201ccautiously optimistic\u201d about its religious exemptions.\nCatholic Bishop Robert Guglielmone of Charleston, South Carolina, who helps manage Catholic scouting programs, said he doesn\u2019t think the Roman Catholic church can cut ties with the BSA.\nWendy Montgomery\nJordan Montgomery at Scout Day Camp in 2008.",

        "raw_content": "Physics XI | 1.4.3 Strong Nuclear Force\n1.4.3 Strong Nuclear Force\nThe strong nuclear force binds protons and neutrons in a nucleus. It is evident that without some attractive force, a nucleus will be unstable due to the electric repulsion between its protons. This attractive force cannot be gravitational since force of gravity is negligible compared to the electric force. A new basic force must, therefore, be invoked. The strong nuclear force is the strongest of all fundamental forces, about 100 times the electromagnetic force in strength. It is charge-independent and acts equally between a proton and a proton, a neutron and a neutron, and a proton and a neutron. Its range is. however, extremely small, of about nuclear dimensions (10\"l5m). It is responsible for the stability of nuclei. The electron, it must be noted, does not experience this force.\nRecent developments have, however, indicated that protons and neutrons are built out of still more elementary constituents called quarks.",

It remains high above the plain because it is composed of a limestone cap that protects a layer of softer red shale beneath it; the rest of the valley was composed of shale that eroded away. The only approach is from the west, which was heavily fortified from at least the 4th c. BCE on. The view from the summit was described by Strabo (8.6.21) encompassing Mounts Parnassus in Phocis, Helicon and Cithaeron in Boeotia, and the Scironian rocks near Attica, not to mention the Corinthian Gulf and the territory of Sicyon and Corinth.\nThe citadel continued to be an important stronghold after Pausanias\u2019 time, its fortifications rebuilt by the Byzantines (6th-11th c. CE), Franks (1210-1458), Venetians (1687-1715), and Ottomans (1458-1687, 1715-. Within the fortification walls can still be seen the ruins of the temple of Aphrodite, the spring (and cisterns) of Upper Peirene, post-Venetian garrison headquarters, and a Turkish village with mosques and minarets.",

All errors in this piece are entirely my own. I also want to thank Professor Paul T. Crane for his generosity and guidance, and Professor Elizabeth Duquette for helping me improve my writing. And, most importantly, Setareh O'Brien, for her unwavering friendship and support.\nThis Comment analyzes the statehood aspirations of Liberland, a self-proclaimed microstate nestled on a tract of disputed territory between Serbia and Croatia. Customary international law, the Montevideo Criteria, and alternative modalities of recognition are discussed as potential avenues for Liberland to gain recognition. The theoretical and practical merits of these theories are explored.\nUltimately, Liberland has two potential avenues for obtaining recognition. First, Liberland could convince the international community that the land it claims is terra nullius and satisfies the Montevideo Criteria. Second, Liberland could obtain constitutive recognition by the international community. It is unlikely that Liberland will be able to obtain recognition through either of these avenues.\nOn April 13, 2015, Vit Jedlicka, a Czech politician, announced the creation of Liberland, an autonomous micronation located on the Western bank of the Danube River.1 Liberland is located on the Croatian side of the Danube, the natural boundary between Croatia and Serbia, on three square miles of uninhabited and disputed land that has been left unclaimed by both nations throughout a drawn-out border dispute.2 Jedlicka founded Liberland with the intent of developing the uninhabited land into a libertarian utopia and international tax haven.3 Despite Jedlicka\u2019s efforts, no United Nations member country has recognized Liberland as a state.4\nLiberland may be nothing more than a provocative experiment undertaken by a libertarian iconoclast in an attempt to antagonize Serbia, Croatia, and the rest of the international community. But there is every reason to think that Jedlicka seriously wants to found a microstate. Moreover, regardless of Jedlicka\u2019s true motives, Liberland\u2019s aspirations to attain statehood present interesting and important legal questions about self-determination, how states are created, and the role that international recognition has in the emergence of a new state as a legal entity. This Comment will explore these questions.\nI have structured this Comment as follows. First, I provide a brief history of Liberland, including a discussion of the unique history that precipitated the current territorial dispute between Serbia and Croatia. I then discuss customary international law and argue that Liberland is unlikely to obtain statehood through the principle of self-determination because it is not solidly enshrined in custom. Third, I ask whether Liberland would be able to obtain independence in light of the territorial integrity of the parent state\u2014for example Serbia or Croatia\u2014if they were to assert their claims to Liberland in the future. Fourth, I evaluate Liberland\u2019s statehood aspirations under the criteria enumerated in the Montevideo Convention, and posit that Liberland most likely does not meet a strict application of these criteria. I posit, however, that Liberland would likely satisfy a \u201crelaxed\u201d Montevideo standard and argue that a relaxed standard may be appropriate. I then discuss criticisms of the Montevideo Criteria, and ask whether Liberland meets the additional statehood requirements that some scholars have proposed.\n1. Jedlicka made this proclamation by reading the declaration of independence, and earlier in 2015, had traveled down the Danube and planted a flag on the land in question.

The Serbian government decided not to assert its right to the territory because it preferred to accept the new borders created by the changing contours of the Danube; the River\u2019s changing course left an area of Croatia ten times bigger than Liberland on the Serbian side. Rather than assert its claim to the land on which Liberland sits, Serbia decided to claim the formerly Croatian land now connected to Serbia proper. Croatia, for its part, has refused to assert a claim to Liberland; it fears that doing so will legitimize the new borders demarcated by the current course of the Danube and allow Serbia to legitimately claim the land that it now found on its side of the River.

A Brief History of Liberland\nIn the weeks following Liberland\u2019s declaration of independence in April 2015, Jedlicka and his supporters\u2014including a Czech member of the European Parliament who supports Liberland\u2019s obtaining international recognition5\u2014made repeated attempts to establish a permanent settlement in Liberland. However, the Croatian authorities foiled their efforts, and, on two occasions, arrested Jedlicka and his supporters when they tried to land on Liberland.6 Because of the Croatian government\u2019s increased efforts to repel any would-be settlers, there are currently no permanent residents of Liberland.7 Furthermore, the tiny parcel has not had a permanent population in recent memory.8 However, the \u201cLiberland Settlement Association\u201d is actively recruiting new members and trying to establish a permanent settlement.9 In the meantime, would-be Liberland residents have set up their basecamp in Bezdan, a small town in Serbia close to the territory Liberland claims.10 Jedlicka\u2019s post-independence efforts to colonize Liberland have not entirely been in vain. On one occasion Jedlicka and six supporters camped out for the night on an island in the Danube that is within Liberland\u2019s self-proclaimed border.11\nLiberland has many of the political and legal aspects of a modern state. Liberland has a constitution, complete with a bill of rights and provisions for democratic elections.12 Liberland also has an intricate body of laws.13 Liberland claims to have fully functioning \u201cdiplomatic missions\u201d in at least 13 countries, including the U.S., the U.K., France, Germany, and Georgia.14 Liberland invites applications for citizenship on its national website.15 As of September 2015, approximately 378,000 people had applied for citizenship.16\nSince Liberland has yet to receive international recognition from any sovereign state, it is currently a micronation, not a microstate.17 The term \u201cmicronation\u201d refers to a group that \u201cclaims sovereignty (generally unrecognized by other nations) over small territories for the purpose of self-determination.\u201d18 The Principality of Sealand, a remote settlement located on an abandoned naval platform seven nautical miles away from England\u2019s shores is, perhaps, the world\u2019s most (in)famous micronation.19 By contrast, mircostates \u201cenjoy full recognition by the international community.\u201d20 Monaco, Vatican City, and San Marino are all famous microstates and, in contrast to micronations like Liberland and Sealand, enjoy full recognition by the international community.21\nImportantly, Liberland may fall under the category of terra nullius.22 Liberland is located on the west Bank of the Danube, on one of the small slivers of formerly Serbian land that Croatia gained title to after they codified the Badinter Commission\u2019s findings as the international border between them.23 Before the breakup of the former Yugoslavia, a sizable Serbian minority lived on the Croatian (Western) side of the Danube, while a small Croatian population lived on the Serbian (Eastern) side.24 The Badinter Commission\u2019s report assigned ten times more historically Croatian land to Serbia than historically Serbian land to Croatia.25 Therefore, Serbia has refused to claim title to Liberland, and even issued a statement saying that Liberland would \u201cnot theoretically impinge on its border.\u201d26 Croatia, for its part, has not recognized Liberland, even though the land Liberland claims is within the internationally recognized border of Croatia.27 If Croatia were to claim title to Liberland, this claim could be equated with Croatia tacitly accepting the current international border. However, Croatia is unwilling to acknowledge the validity of the current border because the border assigns large amounts of formerly Croatian land to Serbia.28 Nonetheless, Croatia recently issued a statement in which it asserted that, while the precise boundary between Croatia and Serbia is disputed and while Croatia does not claim Liberland for itself, Liberland is not terra nullius.29 It is unclear whether Croatia\u2019s statement effectively forecloses the possibility that Liberland is terra nullius because of the simple fact that neither Croatia nor Serbia is willing to assert title to Liberland. A historical overview of the border dispute is required at this juncture. If Liberland is really terra nullius,30 Liberland\u2019s claim to it may be legitimate under international law. If the territory that Liberland claims as its own is rightfully Croatia\u2019s under international law, it might now be terra nullius; Croatia\u2019s insistence that Liberland is part of Serbia could constitute a renunciation of Croatia\u2019s legal rights to Liberland. Conversely, if the territory that Liberland claims as its own is Serbian, the Serbian government\u2019s renunciation of its title to that land could also be a quitclaim that would transform the legal status of the land to terra nullius. In both instances, the territory would belong to the first entity\u2014in this case Liberland\u2014to claim it.31 However, because of the complicated history of the Croatian-Serbian border region, it may be difficult to ascertain who the land belongs to under international law.\nA. The Serbian-Croatian Border Dispute\nThe border dispute that rages today has its origins in the internal borders that were drawn in Yugoslavia after World War II.32 In 1945, the Communist Party of Yugoslavia established a commission that would definitively determine the border between Serbia and Croatia.33 The Politburo34 mandated that the border be drawn based on ethnic boundaries; thus, the Commission traveled along the border region to determine which ethnic group had a majority in any given town.35 The non-Danube portion of the border was thus drawn according to ethnic distributions of Serbs and Croats36 and is not disputed today.37\nWhat was problematic then, and what continues to be problematic today, is the 87-mile portion of the Serbia-Croatia border that corresponds to the Danube River.38 Rather than drawing this portion of Yugoslavia\u2019s internal border to conform to ethnic population distributions, which would have been a time-consuming and difficult endeavor due to the serpentine ethnic border between Serb and Croat populations in the region, the Soviet Commission decided that the Danube would serve as the border between Serbia and Croatia.39\nWhile adhering to the contours of the Danube was certainly the most obvious way to draw a border between Serbia and Croatia, it was clearly, by 1945, not the most accurate way to delineate the two states.40 While the Danube had once served as the boundary between the Serb and Croat communities, it had long ceased to be the marker that separated the different ethnic groups inhabiting the border region. Due to major hydraulic projects undertaken in the late 19th century to straighten out the snake-like curvatures of the Danube and allow for better regulation of its flow, the Danube\u2019s course was altered, causing \u201cdifferences between the new river-bed and the cadastral boundary which conform[ed] to the former course of the river.\u201d41\nThus, small slivers of Serbia were left on the Croatian side of the altered Danube, while considerably larger pockets of Croatia were left on the Serbian side of the river.42 A report from then International Boundaries Research Unit states that the ratio in the area between the Croatian pockets left on the Eastern bank to the Serbian pockets left on the Western bank is approximately 10:1.43\nUntil the breakup of Yugoslavia, the disputed border between Serbia and Croatia was of little significance. However, in 1991\u20131992, when Yugoslavia dissolved into its constituent states, the border dispute assumed the utmost importance.44 The European Community appointed the Badinter Commission to determine the international borders of the states that had made up the former Yugoslavia.45 The Badinter Commission concluded that the international boundaries of the former Yugoslavian states would be governed by \u201c(1) respect for the territorial status quo and (2) uti possidetis.\u201d46 Thus, \u201cthe former internal boundaries bec[a]me external boundaries, protected under international law.\u201d47 In other words, \u201cthe existing internal federal border . . . [was] transformed into international borders of the new state[s].\u201d48\nWhile the Badinter Commission purported to do nothing more than to codify the pre-existing internal borders as international borders, it is far from apparent that the internal border between Serbia and Croatia, as it existed in 1991, was the true border between the former Yugoslav states.49\n1. International principles of border disputes involving rivers\nWhen rivers form the international borders between states the boundary line is formed by the \u201cthalweg,\u201d the deepest part of \u201cthe main channel or strongest current downstream.\u201d50 International law has developed clear rules for when a river changes course. When a river\u2019s thalweg gradually shifts to one side or another because of \u201cimperceptible erosion\u201d of the river\u2019s banks, a process known as \u201caccretion,\u201d the boundary that the thalweg constitutes moves \u201cto a corresponding degree.\u201d51 By contrast, when a river shifts suddenly and carves a new channel, a process known as \u201cavulsion,\u201d the international border does not change, but rather stays where it was before the river\u2019s abrupt departure from its former course.52 These principles are so strongly established that the U.S. Supreme Court, in Nebraska v. Iowa,53 noted these rules are \u201cuniversally recognized as correct . . . where the boundaries between states or nations are, by prescription or treaty, found in running water.\u201d54\nThe same principles apply when manmade projects change a river\u2019s course; \u201cartificial changes caused to rivers resulting in accretion consequently causing the thalweg, median line, or banks of a river to shift, do not result in the alteration of the river boundary under state practice.\u201d55 Of course, sometimes both naturally occurring and manmade factors cause a river to shift. In these situations, \u201cit [is] extremely difficult to distinguish between causes . . . for the purposes of resolving the dispute.\u201d56\nThe Badinter Commission disregarded these codified principles of river boundaries. Manmade water projects in the late 19th century caused the changes to the Danube\u2019s course.57 Thus, these changes were instances of avulsion, not accretion. Therefore, the course of the Danube, as it existed at the time of the Badinter Commission\u2019s report in 1992, was not the true border between Serbia and Croatia\u2014or at least that it would not have been had the Yugoslav republics been independent sovereign states. Rather, the Danube\u2019s old border was the appropriate legal border; the border between them did not change when the river shifted course.\nTrue, Serbia and Croatia nominally \u201cconsented\u201d to the Badinter Commission\u2019s findings\u2014and thus to using the Danube\u2019s new course as the international boundary\u2014by accepting the European Community\u2019s invitation to break away from the former Yugoslavia on the condition that the Badinter Commission\u2019s report be codified as the new international boundaries.58 However, there are two compelling reasons to believe that Serbia and Croatia never truly \u201cconsented\u201d to the Danube\u2019s new course being the international border. First, less than one month after Serbia and Croatia broke away from the former Yugoslavia, Serbia disregarded the international boundary, declared war on Croatia over the contested borderlands, and immediately invaded parts of Croatia that had significant Serbian minorities.59 Second, shortly after its independence, Croatia publically contended that numerous pockets of territory that ended up on the Danube\u2019s Western Bank\u2014i.e., in what is now recognized as Serbia\u2014were actually Croatian territory.60 Thus, even if Serbia and Croatia nominally \u201cconsented\u201d to the Badinter Commission\u2019s opinion that the Danube\u2019s new course was the international boundary by virtue of joining the European Community, each side withdrew its consent almost immediately after the European Community formally adopted the Badinter Commission\u2019s report in June 1991.\nHowever, while Croatia certainly had a strong argument that the internal Yugoslav border between Serbia and Croatia\u2014i.e., the Danube\u2019s shifted course, which is now the international border between the two states\u2014was inaccurate, any claim that Croatia had to challenge the legal status of the Danube\u2019s acting as the border likely expired in 1992, when the European Community adopted the Badinter Commission\u2019s report. First, the Badinter Commission cemented the internal borders as the official international ones.61 Second, the Badinter Commission reaffirmed Article 5 of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (SFRY) Constitution, which stated, \u201cthe republics\u2019 boundaries cannot be changed without their consent.\u201d62 Thus, \u201c[t]he Badinter Commission consequently renounced any investigation into the genesis of the intra-Yugoslav boundaries.\u201d63\nII. Self-Determination: Customary International Law?\nAs a starting point, it is important to note that the principle of self-determination is clearly recognized by international law.64 Article 1 of the United Nations Charter states that the very purpose of the United Nations is to \u201cdevelop friendly relations among nations based on respect for the principle of equal rights and self-determination of peoples.\u201d65 Furthermore, General Assembly Resolution 1514, enacted in 1960 and aimed at eradicating colonialist domination of peoples around the world, unequivocally states that \u201c[a]ll peoples have the right to self-determination; by virtue of that right they freely determine their political status and freely pursue their economic, social, and cultural development.\u201d66 As one commentator noted, the declaration announces that all peoples, not just colonial ones, have a fundamental right to self-determination.67\nDespite the fact that the right to self-determination of peoples is clearly recognized in international law, neither customary international law nor consistent state practice has evolved to encompass a right to secession.68 Why, despite clear direction from the most powerful source of international law\u2014the United Nations\u2014have states failed to recognize peoples\u2019 efforts to exercise their right to self-determination? Why has customary international law failed to evolve to encompass a fundamental right of peoples that is clearly expressed multiple times in the United Nations\u2019 founding document?\nStatehood scholar Jori Duursma posits that the lack of customary international law recognizing people\u2019s right to self-determination is due to an inevitable and intractable conflict between the right to self-determination and another important principle in international law\u2014\u201cthe principle of respect for the territorial integrity of a State.\u201d69 Duursma\u2019s insight must be accurate. Existing States, the major players in the international arena, the very bodies whose acts can constitute customary international law, are loathe to promulgate, much less follow, any body of rules that would allow for the recognition of new States. The emergence of new States, by definition, threatens the territorial integrity, viability, and existence of old ones. Crawford echoes this sentiment, and observes that \u201c[s]elf determination, as a legal right or principle, threaten[s] to bring about significant changes in the political geography of the world.\u201d70\nWhat follows from Duursma\u2019s observation about the tension between the right to self-determination and the principle of territorial integrity is counterintuitive and ethically problematic. People living under effective and oppressive governments have a much lower chance of having their attempts at self-determination recognized by the international community; secession would violate the territorial integrity of the parent State.71 By contrast, people who live in a State that has failed and no longer exists as an effective entity have a greater chance of being recognized because recognizing a new, autonomous State in these circumstances does not threaten the territorial integrity of the parent State as it has already ceased to exist.72 This means that the people who are least likely to have their right of self-determination recognized by the international community are those who need it the most\u2014people living under oppressive regimes that are solidly entrenched and not at risk of dissolving. In other words, the regimes that are least likely to have breakaway regions recognized by the international community are the ones that can most effectively oppress marginalized groups.\nIf recognition of secessionist micronations is to be anything other than an ad hoc political decision subject to the capricious winds of the geopolitical climate, the tension that Duursma observes between the right to self-determination and the principle of territorial integrity must be resolved. While it will be difficult, resolving this tension is imperative for an international legal order that claims to espouse liberal values such as the principle of self-determination.\nAs a starting point, I propose that when a group of people\u2014such as Jedlicka and his fellow Liberlanders\u2014makes a genuine and legitimate claim of self-determination, the inquiry into whether that group should be recognized should begin with the presumption that people have a right to self-determination. This would be a fundamental shift from international practice, which, as described infra, presumes that the territorial integrity of existing states should be preserved above all else and only entertains claims of self-determination against a backdrop that is heavily prejudiced against recognizing new states.73 In other words, when a group of people satisfies certain predetermined criteria for statehood (such as the Montevideo criteria described in Section V), the international community should generally recognize the new state as declaratory theory requires. If the aspiring state satisfies these predetermined criteria, the burden should shift to the existing parent state to refute the presumption that the aspiring state should be granted statehood status.\nPresuming that the statehood claims of aspiring states are valid, and accordingly should be taken seriously and analyzed under specific criteria, promotes the rule of law and adds to the credibility and legitimacy of international law.\nIII. Recognition Theory: Is Statehood a Declaratory or Constitutive Act?\nExamining the two main theories of recognition\u2014declaratory theory and constitutive theory\u2014is needed to contextualize and assess the merits of Liberland\u2019s statehood claim. I discuss these theories in turn.\nA. The Declaratory Approach\nAccording to declaratory theory, the \u201cpolitical existence of the State is independent of recognition by other States.\u201d74 Existing states do not \u201ccreate\u201d a new state through recognition.75 However, existing states have a positive obligation to recognize\u2014or \u201cdeclare\u201d\u2014new states as such once they satisfy the Montevideo Criteria.76 The Montevideo Convention is widely considered to be the first codification of declaratory theory.77 This theory is, by all accounts, \u201cthe most widely applied, recognized, and cited source in international law for determining statehood.\u201d78\nDeclaratory recognition theory, which distinguishes statehood from recognition by other states, is appealing for both practical and philosophical reasons. Declaratory theory offers a clear test that is easy to use and to objectively apply to new situations.79 The requirements for statehood under declaratory theory are relatively clear, and do not rely on recognition from other states; declaratory theory thus produces predictable results and promotes the rule of law.80 Moreover, declaratory theory is more inclusive in the sense that it does not condition the emergence of new states on the recognition by existing ones.81 For this reason, aspiring states\u2014such as Liberland\u2014prefer the declaratory theory to the constitutive theory (discussed below).82 In addition, by insulating statehood from the vicissitudes of international politics, the declaratory model is more satisfying from a purely theoretical perspective.\nWhile the declaratory theory\u2019s ostensible objectivity is advantageous, the declaratory theory is not as objective as it appears at first glance. There are two fundamental respects in which declaratory theory\u2019s statehood criteria are subjective.83 First, the selection of criteria is inherently suspect. Since interested parties determine the criteria on which statehood is based, the criteria are skewed towards certain interests, such as the interest of existing states to maintain the geopolitical status quo by making it difficult for aspiring states to obtain statehood.84 Second, applying the declaratory criteria in a given situation is an inherently subjective undertaking. Since it is based on \u201cthe inherent, institutional biases held by different actors in the evaluative process,\u201d applying the criteria neutrally is simply impossible.85\nAnother problem with declaratory theory is that it cannot explain why states only obtain rights in the international sphere once they are recognized.86 State practice proves that satisfying the Montevideo Convention does not guarantee recognition.87 Many entities fulfill the Montevideo Convention yet are not recognized as states. For example, Cyprus,88 Sealand,89 and Somaliland 90 all arguably satisfy the Montevideo Criteria, but are not recognized as states. Declaratory theory cannot account for the international community\u2019s failure to recognize states that meet the supposedly objective criteria for statehood.91\nFurthermore, declaratory theory may suffer from an internal contradiction. Its main virtue is that it is objective, yet, as discussed above, it arguably conditions statehood on the capacity to enter into relations with other states.92 Thus, even in a declaratory model such as the Montevideo Convention, it is difficult to comprehend how statehood could be separate from recognition.93 Finally, to the extent that the declaratory model is applied strictly\u2014in other words, is actually applied objectively and actually allows states to obtain statehood in the absence of recognition\u2014it \u201cundermine[s] the principle that law is made by states.\u201d94\nB. The Constitutive Approach\nThe second leading theory of recognition takes a fundamentally different approach. Under the constitutive theory, \u201cstatehood can only be achieved when other states recognize the entity which seeks to become a state.\u201d95 Existing states are \u201cgatekeepers\u201d whose approval is required to justify their having legal obligations towards the aspiring state.96 Thus, constitutive theory adheres to the principle, central to international law, that only sovereigns can bind themselves.97 Sovereign states only have legal obligations to states that they have recognized.98 Constitutive theory also gives politics a central role in recognition because the political act of recognition and the legal act of statehood are inseparable.99\nThe main criticisms of the constitutive theory are that by reducing statehood to recognition, it makes statehood relative100 and subjugates international law to international politics,101 therefore, depriving international law of much of its power and relevance. Moreover, in a constitutive framework, existing states can abuse the power they have to recognize other states, and can \u201cignore the facts, i.e. the existence of a state\u201d102 to prevent that entity from gaining statehood and receiving the legal protections states are guaranteed under international law. For a legal system to be credible, law must reflect facts. Thus, the constitutive approach, by enabling powerful states to ignore the facts on the ground and make ad hoc political decisions about when an aspiring state achieves statehood, can threaten the integrity and weaken the credibility of the international legal order.103\nA related criticism of constitutive theory is that it undermines sovereign equality.104 Article 1 if the United Nations\u2019 Charter, discussed supra, states that the goal of the United Nations is to \u201cdevelop friendly relations among nations based on respect for the principle of equal rights and self-determination of peoples.\u201d105 No distinction is made between peoples of Member States and Non-Member States, or between peoples of recognized states and non-recognized states.106 Therefore, allowing some states to deny peoples of aspiring states self-determination, and the political rights that are associated with statehood, seems to violate the fundamental principle of sovereign equality.107\nInherent in the constitutive theory is the irreconcilable problem of who decides when an entity has obtained statehood.108 As one scholar has observed, \u201cit is unclear how many and whose recognitions are necessary for a State to be constituted through recognition.\u201d109 There is also a meta problem: who decides who decides?\nFor the above-stated reasons, many prominent theorists, most notably Crawford, have vehemently rejected constitutive theory\u2019s validity as both a descriptive and a normative framework for recognition.110 Indeed, while constitutive theory may describe how recognition works in practice more accurately than declarative theory does, constitutive theory, by subjugating international law to political powers and political decisions, is both unsatisfying from a theoretical level and troubling from a moral perspective. If constitutive theory is right, and international law is all about political might, then states\u2019 moral claims in any aspect of international law are illegitimate, and the moral claims that are persuasive on the international level are nothing more than the most powerful states imposing their idiosyncratic moral framework onto other, weaker peoples. This status quo may appeal to a moral relativist, but it is fundamentally incompatible with how states justify the moral appeals they make to the international community.\nAware of the fundamental deficiencies of both the declaratory and constitutive theories, some scholars have proposed synthesizing the two approaches. Lauterpacht famously proposed that, once a territory satisfies the declaratory requirements promulgated by the Montevideo Convention, other nations have a duty to recognize that state, thus satisfying the recognition requirement inherent in constitutive theory.111 Lauterpacht\u2019s theory represents \u201ca balance between . . . acknowledging the role of politics in . . . recognition, and . . . maintaining the premise that recognition is . . . not solely a political . . . act.\u201d112 This synthesis has gained some favor lately. One scholar, echoing Lauterpacht, asserts that \u201cthe international community should use the foundations of the four Declarative Theory factors and expand them to include the Constitutive Theory as the fifth, and most important, of those factors.\u201d113\nWhile these attempts to reconcile the flaws in the declaratory and constitutive theories are laudable, the resulting synthesis does not advance the ball. The main effect of Lauterpacht\u2019s prescription is to require that constitutive recognition necessarily follow whenever an aspiring state satisfies the Montevideo Convention\u2019s criteria. In other words, constitutive recognition is essentially a formal duty that follows from satisfying the declaratory criteria.114 Lauterpacht\u2019s theory of the \u201cduty\u201d to recognize is essentially a fifth criteria in the declarative model. It requires states to do what they are supposed to do when an aspiring state satisfies the Montevideo Criteria\u2014recognize the entity as a state. Thus, it is unclear exactly what Lauterpacht\u2019s theory adds to the picture.\nMoreover, Lauterpacht\u2019s synthesis has all the flaws of both distinct approaches. The problems inherent in determining the moment when individual declaratory criteria are satisfied are still present in Lauterpacht\u2019s theory. Furthermore, Lauterpacht has not resolved the constitutive problem\u2014and the meta problem\u2014of determining who decides, and who decides who decides, which state(s)\u2019 recognition is required for an entity to become a sovereign state.115\nIV. Competing Claims and Territorial Integrity: Defining Characteristics of the Post-Colonial World?\nLiberland may face a high hurdle on its path to recognition\u2014the territorial claims of Croatia and possibly Serbia.116 The traditional theories of state recognition\u2014declarative and constitutive\u2014are ill-equipped to deal with the realities of the post-colonial geopolitical realm, one in which nearly all inhabitable territories are under the control of a parent state.117 Even in the very rare case where an aspiring state, like Liberland, claims a piece of land that is arguably terra nullius, the territorial integrity of the prior parent state(s) must be reckoned with before statehood may be granted to the new entity.118 As one prominent recognition scholar observes, it \u201cis . . . impossible to make a claim for independence in the contemporary world without there being a competing claim of territorial integrity.\u201d119\nRespecting the territorial integrity of existing states is a fundamental principle of international law and is codified in the United Nations\u2019 Charter.120 Therefore, while the declaratory method of obtaining statehood\u2014i.e., satisfying the Montevideo Convention\u2019s objective criteria for independence\u2014still remains the \u201cofficial\u201d means by which statehood can be achieved,121 merely satisfying Montevideo\u2019s objective criteria is not sufficient to achieve statehood.122 Rather, \u201cthe most challenging hurdle an entity needs to overcome on its path to statehood\u201d123 is overcoming the competing claim of territorial integrity made by the parent state.124\nInternational law has not evolved in the face of the indubitable phenomenon of competing claims of territorial integrity.125 Rather, \u201c[i]nternational law has adopted a position of neutrality in regard to unilateral secession.\u201d126 International law offers no clear way of mediating claims of independence by entities that claim land also claimed by a parent state.127 In effect, this means that an aspiring state that claims independence is able to become a state, but that something more than a \u201cmere declaration\u201d is required because, in the context of the parent state\u2019s competing claim of territorial integrity, \u201c[d]eclaring independence does not create a new state, even if the entity exhibits the attributes of statehood.\u201d128\nGiven the parent state\u2019s claims of territorial integrity, buttressed by the U.N. Charter, it is extremely difficult for an entity to attain statehood.129 Moreover, the burden of proof is on the party seeking to shift the territorial arrangement, i.e., the aspiring state.130 In other words, the aspiring state must show why the territorial status quo should be upset before it can gain statehood status.\nHowever, all hope is not lost for aspiring states. Vidmar identifies four means by which an aspiring state can overcome the parent state\u2019s assertion of territorial integrity: a waiver by the parent state;131 consensual extinction of the parent state;132 multilateral international involvement;133 or constitutive recognition/unilateral succession.134 However, if Liberland is unable to convince the international community that the land it claims is in fact terra nullius, it is unlikely to overcome Croatia and Serbia\u2019s potential claims of territorial integrity through any of the means proposed by Vidmar.\nThe first method of overcoming the parent state\u2019s claim of territorial integrity\u2014through waiver by the parent state\u2014does not apply to Liberland. While neither country wants to claim the land on which Liberland rests, neither has, as of yet, explicitly waived its right to the territory. Neither is likely to do so in the future, either.135 If Croatia were to formally waive its right to Liberland, it would lose the only significant piece of land it has gained title to due to the shifting course of the Danube.136 While Croatia would, ideally, like to have title to the large tracts of formerly Croatian lands now located in Serbia, its second-best option is to gain title to the land on which Liberland sits. If Croatia lost its claim to the land now in Serbia and waived its title to Liberland, Croatia would get nothing. Similarly, Serbia is extremely unlikely to waive its title to Liberland. Doing so would be a tacit acceptance that the title to Liberland is Serbia\u2019s to waive, which would be an acknowledgement on the part of Serbia that the old border\u2014not the new one\u2014is correct.137 Thus, waiving title to Liberland could result in Serbia losing title to the large area of land now located on its side of the Danube.138\nThe second and third methods for succession\u2014consensual extinction of the parent state and multilateral international involvement\u2014also do not apply to Liberland. Serbia and Croatia are not about to become failed states or disintegrate. Moreover, the international community is almost certainly not going to form a coalition and actively intervene in the situation to enforce Liberland\u2019s claim of statehood. There is no allegation that the nations are engaging in mass human rights violations or genocidal practices\u2014the sort of atrocities by a parent state that might inspire multilateral international involvement.139\nThus, if Liberland cannot persuade the international community that the land it claims is terra nullius, Liberland\u2019s only remaining option for obtaining statehood is through constitutive recognition. This would, of course, run into the problems common to constitutive recognition, as discussed above.\nIf Vidmar is right (that the four ways he identifies are an exhaustive list of how contemporary entities with aspirations of statehood can gain independence), the natural extension of his theory elucidates a serious gap between black letter international law and contemporary state practice. Namely, the restatements of international law, and U.N. precedent itself, continue to expound declaratory theory\u2014embodied in the Montevideo Convention\u2014as the \u201cofficial\u201d way for entities to obtain statehood. However, in the absence of a waiver by the parent state (which, in all cases, is extremely unlikely), consensual extinction of the parent state (also extremely unlikely, as in the case of Syria), or multilateral international involvement (which occurs primarily when genocide or serious suppression of ethnic groups is taking place), the emergence of new states is contingent on constitutive recognition. In other words, outside of these very rare circumstances, aspiring entities will, de facto, be unable to obtain statehood, regardless of how meritorious their claims of statehood are.\nV. Analyzing Liberland\u2019s Claim of Statehood Under the Montevideo Criteria\nFor Liberland to obtain statehood, it will likely need to satisfy the four criteria articulated at the Montevideo Convention for the Rights and Duties of States in 1933. The Montevideo Criteria, comprise \u201cthe commonly agreed definition of what is a State.\u201d140 In fact, the criteria for statehood that are listed in the Restatement (Third) of the Foreign Relations Law of the United States are identical to those set forth in the Montevideo Convention.141 The Montevideo Criteria are the closest thing to customary international law142 that exists for determining when an entity is a state.143\nAs Crawford observes, the Montevideo criteria are \u201cbased on the principle of effectiveness among territorial units.\u201d144 Under the Montevideo Criteria, a state exists by virtue of its being able to effectively govern over a defined territory.145 But Montevideo\u2019s requirement that a state have the capacity to effectively manage a territorial unit is not uniformly applied in practice. The international community has recognized states that, at the time of inception, lacked one or more of these criteria.146\nAccording to the Montevideo Criteria, a state becomes a state when it possesses four characteristics. First, it must have a permanent population.147 Second, it must have a defined territory.148 Third, it must have an effective government.149 Fourth, it must have the capacity to enter into relations with other states.150\nUsing a strict application of the Montevideo Criteria for statehood, Liberland is unlikely to be recognized as a sovereign state. However, as described below, Liberland might satisfy a \u201crelaxed\u201d Montevideo standard.\nA. Permanent Population\nWhile the Montevideo Convention requires that a state have a permanent population, \u201cthere is no minimum requirement for the number of people in the territory . . . or their permanency in the territory for that territory to qualify as a state.\u201d151 This vague requirement for some minimum permanent population is easy for aspiring states to achieve.152 The population does not even need to be of any particular nationality to satisfy the permanent population requirement.153 Moreover, a textualist approach to the rule allows aspiring states to grant nationality to their population under their own municipal law.154 However, scholars greatly disagree about exactly how stringently to apply the \u201cpermanent population\u201d criterion.155\nCurrently, the permanent population in Liberland is zero.156 While the Montevideo Convention requires only that the population be permanent\u2014and does not prescribe a requirement that the population remain in the territory for a specific amount of time 157\u2014the fact that Liberland does not have any current residents living in the territory casts serious doubt on its permanent population claim.158\nLiberland may satisfy the permanent population requirement. Liberland\u2019s government has granted citizenship to 130 people.159 This number will almost certainly grow. Liberland has received nearly 400,000 \u201cregistrations\u201d for citizenship, and approximately 75,000 of the applicants have been declared eligible for citizenship.160 Moreover, Liberland has established a clear path to citizenship: eligible applicants accumulate \u201cmerits\u201d by donating their money and time to help Liberland become a state, and when they accumulate 10,000 \u201cmerits,\u201d they are granted citizenship.161\nShould it matter to the Montevideo analysis that the reason why Liberland is yet to have a permanent resident population is because Croatia has prevented Liberland settlers from entering Liberland and arrested those that have been able to temporarily evade the authorities and actually reach Liberland? More generally, should an existing state be able to thwart the statehood aspirations of a non-violent secessionist group by repressing that group and preventing its members from even accessing the territory that the secessionist group claims as its own? This dynamic is, to the author\u2019s knowledge, a completely novel situation. Therefore, it is important to resolve this issue, both to determine the validity of Liberland\u2019s statehood claim and to create international precedent for how to consider the permanent population requirement when an existing state forcibly prevents all citizens of the aspiring state from entering the territory they claim.\nLiberland\u2019s lack of permanent resident population certainly is a strike against its statehood claim. However, the international community must consider the incentives created by a strict permanent population test. If the permanent population criterion requires a permanent resident population or a permanent population of citizens within the territory claimed by the aspiring state, the existing state has a perverse incentive to prevent the would-be permanent residents of the aspiring state to enter the territory they claim. This incentive structure could embolden repressive regimes to exacerbate the abuses and injustices that motivated the aspiring state to attempt to secede from the parent state in the first place.\nThis question notwithstanding, Liberland\u2019s lack of permanent resident population weakens its statehood claim.\nB. Defined Territory\nThe defined territory criterion is just as vague as the permanent population requirement. In fact, \u201cthere is no requirement of a minimum area for a territorial community to claim statehood.\u201d162 Liberland claims an area of 7 km2.163 Vatican City, by contrast, has an area of a mere .44 km2.164 And Monaco, also a sovereign state and U.N. member, has an area of merely 2 km2.165 Clearly, Liberland\u2019s diminutive area is not, in itself, a barrier to satisfying the Montevideo Conventions\u2019 defined territory requirement.\nIf Liberland\u2019s size is an insufficient justification for meeting the defined territory requirement, what about the fact that there may be competing claims to Liberland itself?\nWhile competing claims to a given piece of land might make recognition more difficult to achieve, the fact that multiple parties claim ownership of a territory does not prevent a state from coming into existence.166 In fact, the territories of several recognized States\u2014such as Israel, Kuwait, Mauritania, and Belize\u2014were entirely claimed by other States when these States achieved statehood.167 According to Crawford, \u201cboundary disputes . . . do not affect statehood.\u201d168 State practice from Eastern Europe\u2014where Liberland sits\u2014confirms Crawford\u2019s hypothesis. For example, Croatia achieved statehood in 1991, despite the Yugoslav National Army\u2019s occupying parts of Eastern Slavonia.169 Moreover, Poland achieved statehood in 1918 despite the fact that its Western border was not ascertained until a later peace settlement.170 The fact that border disputes do not prevent an aspiring state from obtaining statehood both originates and follows from another interesting aspect of state practice: states do not cease to exist when another asserts a claim to parts, or the whole, of their territories.171\n1. Application of the border dispute to Liberland\u2019s statehood claim\nAs described supra, Croatia and Serbia are immersed in a protracted dispute about their international border, and neither nation presently claims the land upon which Liberland sits.172 Serbia is content with the status quo, as it gained huge swaths of land on the right side of the new Danube that were ethnically Croatian prior to the dissolution of the former Yugoslavia.173 For this reason, Serbia has not asserted title to Liberland and is unlikely to do so in the future.174 Croatia\u2019s currently objects to the Badinter Commission\u2019s findings. It wants the border to return to the Danube\u2019s old course because, at present, large swaths of land traditionally inhabited by Croats are on the right side of the Danube.175 Thus, Liberland might very well be terra nullius, as Jedlicka asserts.176 Moreover, Croatia\u2019s unwillingness to assert title to Liberland also means that Liberland clearly has defined borders; Liberland is bordered by the Danube to the East, and Croatia on the West. Because Liberland has defined boundaries, and because contending claims to territory do not prevent a state from coming into existence (as discussed supra), Liberland may satisfy the Montevideo Convention\u2019s \u201cdefined territory\u201d requirement.\nC. Effective Government\nAn effective government is the most important of the four Montevideo Criteria.177 Government is said to be \u201cthe central requirement of statehood on which all other criteria depend.\u201d178 The importance of the government requirement lends support to Crawford\u2019s hypothesis that the Montevideo Criteria are really testing for territorial effectiveness, or an entity\u2019s ability to govern a given territory effectively.179 The emphasis on effective governance is also supported by scholars such as Duursma, who posits \u201can organization of individuals inhabiting a certain territory has its raison-d\u2019etre in the display of authority to bring order and stability to the community.\u201d180\nDespite the uncontested salience of this third factor in determining statehood, there is no definite requirement or predetermined set of attributes that a government must possess in order to satisfy the effective government criterion.181 However, where an entity claims sovereignty, the structure, or lack thereof, of that self-proclaimed state is relevant to a determination of the legitimacy of that entity\u2019s statehood aspirations.182\nDespite effective government\u2019s prominence in the Montevideo analysis, state practice indicates that an entity need not actually have an effective government to gain recognition as a state.183 For example, many former colonies, such as the Congo and Guinea-Bissau, gained independence and U.N. recognition, despite the fact that at the respective times these entities gained statehood, no single government could legitimately claim control over even a majority of the territories or their populations.184 Similarly, existing states do not automatically revert back to aspiring states when the government loses control over portions of domestic territory.185\nThe government of Liberland lacks the ability to physically occupy and govern its own territory because Croatian police are stationed in Liberland around the clock, preventing citizens of Liberland from entering and setting up a permanent settlement.186 This, by itself, should not disqualify Liberland from being deemed a sovereign State. First, the Montevideo criterion of \u201ceffective government\u201d does not require that a government be physically present within the state\u2019s borders, as described supra.187 Second, if existing states were able to prevent aspiring states from achieving statehood simply by forcibly preventing the government of those aspiring states from accessing the territory they claimed, existing states could prevent the emergence of new states simply by military oppression. This would create perverse incentives for existing states, and would make the attainment of statehood practically impossible for aspiring states that are oppressed by existing ones.\nOne can argue that preventing aspiring states from obtaining statehood\u2014even by force\u2014is an overall good because it encourages order and stability in the international realm.188 Under this view, relaxing the strict Montevideo Criteria would lead to international chaos, and threaten existing states\u2019 continued existence.189 Moreover, recognizing an increased number of small states would necessarily entail a heightened risk that larger nations would react to claims of independence by military action, in hopes of subsuming the breakaway states.190\nIt is, of course, crucial that international order and stability be maintained. However, states should not be able to engage in ad hoc military campaigns to violently suppress peaceful peoples from congregating in areas of a country where they hope to establish their own state. This is particularly true in the case of Liberland. Croatia does not even claim the land that Liberland hopes to colonize. Croatia is preventing Jedlicka and his followers from accessing uninhabited land that Croatia has not claimed.\nMoreover, the fact that Liberland\u2019s government cannot currently enter Liberland does not necessarily mean that the government is incapable of governing Liberland effectively. In fact, Liberland arguably possesses the ability to effectively govern its territory, even if the government is not currently located within Liberland\u2019s borders.191 Liberland has a draft constitution, a domestic court system, a currency, a (very active) president, a cabinet, and a sophisticated process for granting citizenship.192 At least on paper, if not yet in practice, Liberland has all the necessary components of a modern liberal democratic state and may be able to effectively govern its territory.\nD. Capacity to Enter into Relations with Foreign States\nThe final Montevideo requirement\u2014the capacity to enter into relations with foreign states\u2014may be more a consequence of statehood than a necessary criterion for a state to come into existence.193 Since only a sovereign government can bind a State, Crawford argues that \u201c[t]he existence of a government in a territory is thus a precondition for the normal conduct of international relations.\u201d194 However, state practice confirms the fact that an essential aspect of a state for recognition purposes is its ability to enter into relations with other states.195\nLiberland may have the capacity to enter into relations with other states. Jedlicka has the support of several members of the European Parliament. As noted above, one European Parliament member, Tomas Zdechovsky, accompanied Jedlicka on a failed attempt to make a landing in Liberland in June of 2015.196 Furthermore, Jedlicka recently met with members of the Swiss Parliament.197 Moreover, Liberland has established permanent diplomatic missions in numerous states, such as the United Kingdom, France, Germany, the United States, Hungary, Croatia, and Serbia.198\nHowever, the states in which Liberland has established diplomatic missions have not recognized Liberland as an independent sovereign. In fact, no U.N.-recognized country has recognized Liberland.199 While Liberland has all the formal capacities needed to engage in relations with other states, the simple fact is that Liberland has not been recognized by any sovereign nation.200 This cuts against its claim of statehood.\nE. Liberland Likely Does Not Satisfy a Strict Application of the Montevideo Criteria for Statehood\nUnder a strict application of the Montevideo Criteria, Liberland would likely not be recognized as a state. Liberland has a permanent population, but none of its citizens are currently residing in the territory Liberland claims. Moreover, it is doubtful that Liberland truly has the capacity to enter into relations with other states, as none have recognized Liberland yet. Additionally, while Liberland has a potentially effective government; this government is not currently functioning within the territory Liberland claims.\nHowever, under a more expansive view of Montevideo, Liberland has a possible claim for statehood. Liberland has a defined territory. Moreover, while Liberland has neither a permanent resident population, nor an effective government within the territory it claims, this is because Croatia is forcibly preventing Liberland\u2019s citizens from settling in Liberland and is prohibiting Jedlicka and his cabinet from setting up the physical apparatus of a functioning state. It is evident that Liberland would have both a permanent resident population, and an effective government, if Croatia stopped preventing would-be Liberlanders from setting up a permanent settlement. Moreover, Liberland might be able to govern in absentia, as it already possesses many of the legal and bureaucratic aspects of a modern democratic state.\nAs the above-discussion of the Montevideo Criteria illustrates, the Montevideo Criteria are extremely vague, lack clear definitions, and fail to provide a clear, workable framework for evaluating statehood claims. Moreover, as noted supra, a strict application of the Montevideo Criteria creates perverse incentives for existing states to repress entities that aspire to secede.\nTherefore, a detailed analysis of the major criticisms of the Montevideo Criteria is warranted. A critical examination of the Montevideo Criteria is needed to assess whether these factors should be the basis upon which statehood rests. Moreover, this discussion is necessary to evaluate Liberland\u2019s statehood claim. If the Montevideo Criteria are normatively or descriptively deficient, Liberland\u2019s statehood aspirations may not hinge on the Montevideo analysis discussed above.\nVI. Criticisms of The Montevideo Criteria\nThere are two major criticisms of the Montevideo Criteria. First, one can criticize the Montevideo Criteria for being over-inclusive\u2014state practice indicates that additional requirements must be satisfied before an entity gains statehood.201 Second, the Montevideo Criteria may conflate statehood with recognition.202 In this way, the Montevideo Criteria may promote the very subjectivity and ambiguity that a rule of law is meant to guard against.\nA. Additional Requirements for Statehood\nDespite the fact that Liberland arguably satisfies the Montevideo Criteria, not a single sovereign state has recognized Liberland. Could this discrepancy between law and state practice be because the Montevideo Criteria are outdated, and no longer encapsulate the requirements for statehood? Indeed, some scholars, such as Crawford, posit that there are additional requirements to those mandated by Montevideo that an entity must fulfill to gain statehood.203 Two criteria not encapsulated in the Montevideo Convention that are often said to be required for statehood are (1) independence and (2) the entity\u2019s own claim to be a state.204\nCrawford posits that independence, while not required under Montevideo, is a crucial element of statehood.205 According to Crawford, an aspiring state \u201cwill have to demonstrate substantial independence, both formal and real, from the State of which it formed a part before it will be regarded as definitively created.\u201d206 Crawford recommends that, when a state is \u201cformally independent and its creation was not attended by serious illegality,\u201d independence should be presumed.207\nUnder Crawford\u2019s test, Liberland\u2019s independence should be presumed for statehood purposes. Liberland is formally independent; it declared independence, and has its own constitution and government. Moreover, its independence was not the result of, or achieved through, serious illegality. There was no violent insurrection or legally questionable overthrow of an existing state. Finally, Liberland is independent because both Croatia and Serbia have, for over two decades, renounced ownership of the territory that Liberland claims.\nAccording to the Restatement (Third) of Foreign Relations Law, \u201c[w]hile the traditional definition does not formally require it, an entity is not a state if it does not claim to be a state.\u201d208 This requirement for statehood arose as part of state practice regarding recognition of Taiwan, which meets all of the Montevideo Criteria but does not claim to be an independent state.209 Moreover, while many entities, such as California, satisfy the Montevideo requirements and would be more effective independent states than many United Nations member states if they chose to claim independence, these entities are not recognized as states because they do not claim statehood.210 This requirement is certainly central, and it is astounding that the Committee at the Montevideo Conference omitted it from the official requisites for independence. Liberland satisfies this crucial additional criterion to obtaining statehood, because it claims to be a sovereign state. Thus, even if Crawford is correct that the Montevideo Criteria are over-inclusive, Liberland\u2019s statehood claim is not doomed. Liberland clearly satisfies the additional criteria that Crawford identifies as requisite to statehood.\nB. Subjectivity and Conflating Statehood with Recognition\nSome scholars, such as Thomas Grant, lambast the addition of new requirements to the Montevideo Criteria for statehood, and assert that additional criteria only leads to more subjectivity, which is contrary to the rule of law.211 Grant posits that adding \u201cmultiple new criteria into the definition of the state does not necessarily render identification of new states a more subjective process, but it does open new avenues for disagreement in the process of fact finding.\u201d212 When more criteria must be satisfied, there is more room for disagreement and greater ability to exercise discretion.213 Furthermore, Grant observes that some of the additional requirements for statehood\u2014for example, the requirement that the state be \u201cindependent\u201d and its independence not be \u201cattended by serious illegality\u201d214\u2014contain a \u201cpolitical dimension\u201d that \u201cblur[s] the distinction between the legal criteria that make a state and the political criteria that condition recognition.\u201d215 Under pure declaratory theory, for example, the existence of a state proceeds, and is independent of, recognition by other states.216 The act of recognition does not create a state that did not exist before.217 The additional Montevideo Criteria violate this declaratory principle by conditioning the existence of a state on political factors that arise after the state comes into existence.218 To Grant, adding additional criteria to the Montevideo requirements diminishes the distinction between politics and law and conflates recognition in the eyes of other states\u2014a political, not legal, phenomenon\u2014with statehood.219\nGrant\u2019s criticisms are certainly valid. What concerns Grant is the conflation of recognition with statehood, which is problematic from a practical and theoretical perspective.220 However, what Grant fails to appreciate is that the addition of new criteria to the requirements for statehood is not the cause of this problem. The existing Montevideo Criteria themselves contain subjective and politically charged language, and applying the four existing Montevideo Criteria necessarily entails discretion and often conflates recognition with statehood.\nThe Montevideo Criteria are vague standards, rather than bright line rules. Given the fact that many of the criteria\u2014such as \u201ccapacity to enter into relations with other states\u201d\u2014are open-ended and amorphous, discretion and subjectivity will always be exercised when these terms are applied to a given entity\u2019s statehood claim.221 Moreover, the fourth Montevideo requirement\u2014\u201ccapacity to enter into relations with other states\u201d\u2014is inherently political.222 Requiring that other states recognize an entity for it to obtain statehood makes statehood dependent on recognition, itself a political act.223 Thus, while Grant\u2019s criticisms are warranted, he fails to see that the Montevideo Criteria themselves are highly political, and that applying them already subjugates statehood to the capricious winds of international politics.\nConceptualizing the Montevideo Criteria as vague standards, the application of which necessarily entails subjective determinations and political judgments, elucidates why Liberland has failed to obtain statehood. Liberland has likely satisfied the relaxed version of Montevideo\u2019s statehood criteria. However, Liberland has not obtained statehood because existing sovereign states have refused to recognize Liberland as a state. Statehood has been conflated with recognition, and the international community\u2019s failure to recognize Liberland has, de facto, prevented Liberland from satisfying the Montevideo Criteria in the eyes of the states whose recognition is necessary in order for Liberland to obtain statehood.\nIn light of the above analysis, there are two potential pathways by which Liberland might gain recognition. First, Liberland could convince the international community that the land it claims is terra nullius because of Serbia and Croatia\u2019s informal renunciations of title to the territory. Liberland would then need to satisfy the Montevideo Criteria. However, Liberland could not satisfy a strict application of the Montevideo Criteria, because it lacks a permanent resident population, a functioning government within its borders, and arguably the capacity to enter into relations with other states.\nLiberland could satisfy the more lenient version of the Montevideo Criteria. To achieve this, Liberland would need to convince the international community of the flaws in the traditional Montevideo analysis, discussed supra, and make an equitable argument that recognition\u2014and a relaxation of the strict test\u2014is appropriate. However, the international community has viewed Liberland\u2019s statehood claim with great skepticism. It is unlikely that the international community would choose to apply the less stringent version of the Montevideo Criteria and allow Liberland to obtain the recognition it seeks. Liberland is unlikely to achieve recognition if it must satisfy the Montevideo Criteria because of the element of constitutive recognition that is inherent in the Montevideo Criteria\u2019s application.\nIf Liberland were unable to convince the international community that the territory it claims is terra nullius, or if Serbia or Croatia changed their position and reasserted title to the land on which Liberland sits, the equation would change dramatically. Liberland would need to compete with, and overcome, the title asserted by the parent state(s). Only one of the four ways of overcoming the parent state\u2019s competing title, discussed supra, would be available to Liberland\u2014constitutive recognition. However, Liberland\u2019s chances of persuading the international community to recognize it are slim, not a single nation has recognized Liberland.\nLiberland is unlikely to gain the independence it seeks. It could be argued that this is the appropriate outcome because Liberland cannot satisfy the strict Montevideo test. However, Liberland\u2019s failure to satisfy the strict test is largely due to forceful actions by Croatia that are thwarting attempts by Liberland\u2019s citizens to establish a permanent resident population and erect the physical apparatus of a functioning state. In these circumstances, it is inequitable to apply the strict test. Moreover, the strict test creates perverse incentives that will lead to the political repression that groups seeking independence often are attempting to flee.\nEven if Liberland were to satisfy the strict version of the Montevideo Criteria, it is unlikely it would achieve independence because constitutive theory accurately describes the state of the world. A state cannot achieve statehood absent recognition of a sufficient percentage of existing states. This reality repudiates the validity, power, and force of international law, subjugates established legal rules, and replaces them with politics. This is simply how the world works. However, since international politics has replaced international law as state practice, international governing bodies and scholars need to acknowledge this reality and should greatly reduce the weight they claim to give to international law when making decisions about whether to recognize an entity that aspires to be a state.\n5.

I say the \u201ctrue\u201d border (rather than the \u201clegal border\u201d) because I neither challenge the notion that international law is consent based, nor have any doubt that, in a legal sense, Croatia and Serbia \u201cconsented\u201d to the border that was drawn by the Badinter Commission. Croatia and Serbia voluntarily accepted the European Community\u2019s invitation for recognition, an invitation that was expressly conditioned on the old internal federal borders of the former Yugoslavia becoming the international borders between the newly recognized states. See id. at 51. However, as described infra, the border codified by the Badinter Commission would not have been the border had Croatia and Serbia been separate states, rather than internal federal units of the former Yugoslavia, because of the widely accepted legal rules that govern international river borders. This tension, I believe, explains the current state of affairs between Croatia and Serbia, neither of which has consistently asserted title to the land on which Liberland rests.\n50. Charles G.

I am assuming, for this part of the argument, that Croatia\u2019s unwillingness to recognize its own title to the territory that Liberland claims is not an effective quitclaim by Croatia. Therefore, I posit that the international community will consider Liberland\u2019s claim of independence against the backdrop of Croatia\u2019s territorial claim to Liberland, rather than viewing Liberland as occupying terra nullius.\n74.

While Croatia has not officially claimed the land that Liberland claims, this author believes that it will likely do so if it becomes clear to Croatia that its attempts to renegotiate the international boundary between Croatia and Serbia\u2014the Danube\u2019s new course\u2014will be in vain. In this scenario, it would be advantageous for Croatia to assert title to Liberland, because Croatia would have nothing to lose, and would stand to gain the title to the land Liberland claims.\n118. Because, in the contemporary world, the only way that an inhabitable tract of land would be terra nullius is if the parent state(s) renounced its claim to the land, as is arguably the case with Liberland.\n120. Id.; see also U.N. Charter art. 2, \u00b6 4, which reads \u201c[m]embers shall refrain in their international relations from the threat or use of force against the territorial integrity or political independence of any state, or in any other manner inconsistent with the Purposes of the United Nations.\u201d\n121.

While often said to be a codification of customary international law, the Montevideo Criteria cannot truly be said to be customary international law, because, as described infra, they are not followed in practice. If the Montevideo Criteria were customary international law, recognition would follow for states that satisfied the four requirements for statehood.\n143. While the Montevideo criteria are the commonly agreed upon requisite elements that must exist for an entity to become a state, this method of determining statehood is not without its faults. Criticisms of the Montevideo Criteria will be discussed in Part. V.\n144. Crawford, supra note 64, at 46.\n146. See, for example, Charles F.

Requiring an effective government inside the territory claimed by an aspiring state would create the same perverse incentives that, as discussed supra, would exist were the permanent population requirement read to require a permanent resident population. In other words, parent state could take illegal measures to repress any nascent opposition government in the territory that was aiming to secede, and thus, through illegal repression, prevent that aspiring state from achieving the capacity to effectively govern its territory and therefore from obtaining statehood in the eyes of international law.\n193.

Thus, the Montevideo Criteria may be over inclusive. In other words, because the Montevideo Criteria do not include independence and the entity\u2019s own claim of statehood, a strict application of the Montevideo Criteria may result in an inappropriately high number of entities being classified as independent states. However, this does not undermine Liberland\u2019s claim of statehood, because Liberland satisfies these two additional criteria.\n208. Restatement \u00a7 201, supra note 76.\n212.

For whatever reason, it's always them. Someone even replaced the drums in their music with the sound of candy once. But that's not why we're here this time. We're here because someone thought it'd be entertaining to re-cut bits of School of Rock using some Meshuggah material. Spoiler alert: it is entertaining.\nThis video is centered around the scene where Jack Black takes command of the classroom, discovering the musical talents of the students while encouraging them to give a few different instruments a go. Within seconds, these kids uncover their abilities to dominate complex polyrhythms. Or just bowel-shaking bass notes like when he instructs a girl to play a G and some Meshuggah gets spliced in. We know what's coming, but it's funny every time.\nThere was a School of Rock reunion of sorts earlier this year when Jack Black rolled into Chicago with Tenacious D.

Von Fricken allegedly called the victim numerous times and sent her emails and messages despite her asking him to stop.\nHe followed the woman to and from various locations, and even showed up at the Police Department as the victim filed her report, police said. She told police she had spotted Von Fricken's car near her home and that she had seen him follow her to work.\nAttempts to obtain more details from police on Tuesday were unsuccessful.\nA recovering drug addict, Von Fricken set up Transforming Lives through Christ Ministries in Beaufort County in 2009 to help men, some homeless, overcome their drug dependency and find faith, according to previous statements by him to The Beaufort Gazette.\nThe ministry, based at the Family Worship Center in Sheldon, operated a thrift store in the Beaufort Plaza Shopping Center on Robert Smalls Parkway. In November 2010, thieves stole $16,000 in tools and equipment from the ministry's workshop in Sheldon. No arrests were made in the case.\nVon Fricken says on his LinkedIn page that TLC Ministries is a \"nonprofit addiction recovery center serving the Lowcountry,\" which he started 13 years ago.\n\"I have a degree in chemical dependency counseling from New York Suffolk Community College,\" he writes on LinkedIn. \"And have been working in this field for 23 years.\"\nAttempts to reach Von Fricken on Tuesday were unsuccessful.\nhttp://www.islandpacket.com/2013/07/02/2564882/beaufort-pastor-wanted-on-harassment.html\nRead more here: http://www.islandpacket.com/2013/07/02/2564882/beaufort-pastor-wanted-on-harassment.html#storylink=cpyhttp://www.islandpacket.com/2013/07/02/2564882/beaufort-pastor-wanted-on-harassment.html\nRead more here: http://www.islandpacket.com/2013/07/08/2570834/pastor-charged-with-burglary-harassment.html#storylink=cpy\nhttp://www.islandpacket.com/2013/07/08/2570834/pastor-charged-with-burglary-harassment.html",

Today we are asking you to CALL JON FORMAN and tell him to RESOLVE THIS DISPUTE between the union and the Festival IMMEDIATELY.\nToday, the projectionists union received a letter from the County Commissioners telling them that the Commissioners were in full support of their campaign to work the Film Festival. The County Commissioners have also sent a letter to Jon Forman urging him to sit down with the union and allow them to work the Festival.\nThis does NOT solve the long-standing problems between Forman and the union, but it DOES fix the immediate problem of drawing the Festival into their fight. If Jon Forman does not come to the table by Thursday so that the projectionists can work the Festival, then the union is prepared to get their message to the public and festival participants. Stay tuned to Cleveland Indymedia for any action updates\nHere is how you can help RIGHT NOW: Call Jon Forman and tell him to play ball. The projectionists have always been involved in the Cleveland Film Festival, and should continue to be a part of the event. Tell him you support good jobs for Clevelanders, or that your attendance at the festival depends on his actions. Tell him why you are so worked up about this issue.

Immediately after his time as the captain, he moved onto a Canadian TV movie The Man Who Lost Himself with his old costar Nanci Chambers.\nFrom there, he went on to star in a legal drama called Close to Home, another Canadian series The Guard, CSI and many films as well, such as portraying John Wayne in the film Trumbo.

        "raw_content": "Home News Archives Cancer Burden on the Rise in Much of the World\nThe incidence of cancer has increased worldwide during the past decade, but at least some of that increase is in lung, colorectal, and skin cancer, which are potentially preventable, the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) study indicates.\n\"While the increase in lung, colorectal and skin cancers over the past decade is concerning, the prevention potential is substantial,\" Christina Fitzmaurice, MD, MPH, assistant professor of global health, Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation at the University of Washington, in Seattle, said in a statement.\n\"Vital prevention efforts such as tobacco control, dietary interventions, and broader health promotion campaigns need to be scaled up in response to this rise in lifestyle-related cancers,\" she added.\nThe study was published online June 2 in JAMA Oncology.\nThe systematic analysis of the GBD study included 29 cancer groups for which the incidence, mortality, and disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs) were evaluated for 195 countries and territories between 2006 and 2016.\n\"Cancer cases increased by 28% between 2006 and 2016,\" the investigators report, adding that the largest increases occurred in the least developed countries.\nIn 2016, 17.2 million people worldwide were diagnosed with some form of cancer, and 8.9 million died of cancer in the same year.\nCancer also caused 213.2 million DALYs in the same year, virtually all of them from years of life lost.\n\"Globally, the odds of developing cancer during a lifetime (age 0 - 79 years) differed by sex,\" the authors continue.\nThe odds of developing cancer were 1 in 3 for men, compared to 1 in 5 for women, although these odds differed substantially among the different sociodemographic index (SDI) quintiles.\nFor example, cancer risk went from a low of 1 in 8 in the lowest SDI quintile for both men and women to 1 in 2 in the highest SDI quintile for men and 1 in 3 in the highest SDI quintile for women.\nCountries with a high SDI have high levels of income and education and low levels of fertility, whereas low SDI countries have low levels of income and education and high levels of fertility.\n\"In 2016, prostate, TBL (tracheal, bronchus and lung), and colorectal cancer were the most common incident cancers in men \u2014 accounting for 40% of all cancer cases,\" the researchers report.\nLung cancer was the leading cause of cancer-related death in men worldwide as well as the leading cause of cancer mortality globally, accounting for almost 20% of all cancer-related deaths in 2016, the investigators point out.\nFor women, the most common cancers were breast cancer, colorectal cancer, and nonmelanoma skin cancer, which made up 40% of all cancer cases among women in 2016.\nBetween 2006 and 2016, age-standardized annual incidence rates for all cancers increased on average in 130 of the 195 countries examined.\nOn the other hand, age-standardized annual death rates from all cancers on average decreased in 143 of the 195 countries examined, the exceptions being largely in Africa and the Middle East, where annual death rates from cancer did not decline.\nAcross the decade, middle SDI countries experienced the largest increase in cancer incidence rates, at 38%; the largest proportion of this increase was attributed to age.\nIndeed, in both high-middle SDI and high-income countries, increases in cancer incidence were mainly due to an aging population, the investigators point out.\nVast Heterogeneity\nInvestigators also note that there was \"vast heterogeneity\" in the incidence, mortality, and DALYs from cancer between low- and high-SDI countries.\nFor example, women in low-SDI countries were almost four times more likely to develop cervical cancer compared to women in high-SDI countries.\nThere was also significant variability in the incidence of stomach and liver cancer across different SDI countries, although rates of both cervical and stomach cancer have fallen in all SDI quintiles during the past decade, the study authors note.\nConversely, both the incidence and death rates from cancer were higher in high-SDI countries in 2016 than they were in low-SDI countries.\nFor example, the risk of developing breast cancer over a lifetime was highest, at 1 in 10, for women in high-SDI countries, compared to only 1 in 50 for women in low-SDI countries.\n\"Since even in the best-case scenario only a fraction of cancers are preventable under current conditions, providing universal access to health care is crucial for cancer control,\" the investigators observe.\n\"Improving access to advanced diagnostic technologies not commonly available in low SDI countries is a critical step toward achieving health equity globally,\" Fitzmaurice added in a statement.\nThe Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation received funding from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. The authors have disclosed no relevant financial relationships.\nJAMA Oncol. Published online June 2, 2018. FULL TEXT",

        "raw_content": "\u2018X-Men: Apocalypse\u2019: Magneto Gets a Power Boost in New Concept Art\nEver since it was first announced, we\u2019ve been promised something big from X-Men: Apocalypse. Indeed, co-writer/producer Simon Kinberg has described the picture as dealing with an \u201cextinction-level event\u201d in the form of its villain, the centuries-old mutant Apocalypse played by Oscar Isaac. But Apocalypse won\u2019t be alone when he\u2019s wreaking havoc across the globe. We know that he assembles his Four Horsemen when he awakes in the year 1983, and his \u201csquad\u201d will be comprised of Psylocke (Olivia Munn), Storm (Alexandra Shipp), Angel (Ben Hardy), and most importantly, Magneto (Michael Fassbender).\nApocalypse imbues his new followers with even greater abilities, and in a new concept art image from the film, we get a peek at what a power-boosted Magneto looks like. Speaking with EW, which debuted the image, director Bryan Singer promised some major sequences involving Fassbender\u2019s morally questionable mutant:\n\u201cOne of Apocalypse\u2019s many powers is he can imbue other mutants with greater ones. Magneto is demonstrating a small taste of what he can do now. Magneto is already enormously powerful\u2026. Now Apocalypse gives him powers far beyond what we\u2019ve seen before.\u201d\nIt\u2019s tough to make out exactly what Magneto is destroying here, but the prospect of seeing the character with even greater powers than before is certainly exciting from a visual standpoint. We know that Apocalypse is a visually enticing villain, getting a glimpse at a jumbo-sized Apocalypse in the film\u2019s teaser trailer, so I\u2019m looking forward to seeing how Singer plans to visualize all of these new superpowers in the context of the film, especially with folks like Psylocke and Angel in his pocket.\nFor now, check out the concept art below and sound off with what you think is going on in the comments. The film also stars James McAvoy, Jennifer Lawrence, Nicholas Hoult, Tye Sheridan, Sophie Turner, and Evan Peters and opens in theaters on May 27, 2016.\n'Deadpool': Ed Skrein's Ajax Has an Ax to Grind in New Images\nCostume Designer Courtney Hoffman on \u2018The Hateful Eight\u2019, Quentin Tarantino, Terrence Malick,\u2026\n\u2022 Bryan Singer \u2022 Image \u2022 Michael Fassbender \u2022 X-Men: Apocalypse",

        "raw_content": "A private lender is not like a conventional lender in that they don\u2019t sell your loan in the secondary market and are typically used when the property you are trying to buy cannot be financed any other way or a conventional or government lender is not willing to take the risk of lending to you. A private lender can be an individual or a company (not a bank) that loans money to fund a real estate transaction. These can be friends, family, coworkers, associates or accredited investors.\nPrivate Lenders Are Easier To Qualify For\nBecause private lenders can be friends or family, these loans are easier to qualify for. This is especially good for buyers with poor credit or otherwise not qualified for a government loan. However, it is essential to be on the lookout for predatory lending schemes if you choose to go with a private lender and read and understand all documents before signing them.\nPrivate Lenders Have A Shorter Payback Period\nIf you choose to go with a private lender, realize that unlike conventional and government lenders the period in which to pay back the loan will be much shorter since these lenders are looking for a quick return on their investment. As such, private lenders are not advised for buyers who are looking for a first time home or a home in which they will be living for a significant amount of time. However, if you are \u201cflipping\u201d the house (buying it to fix it up and sell it at a higher price) a private lender may be a better option than a government loan.\nThoroughly Research Your Options\nLike with all large financial decisions, it is imperative that you do you research and consult with a trusted advisor as to what lender options are best for your unique situation.\nReady For A Change?

        "raw_content": "Halifax was the focus for the Supreme Court in its early years, but as the population grew so did demands for trials to be held in outlying communities. In 1774 the court began holding sessions twice a year in Annapolis, Kings and Cumberland counties, and these \u201ccircuit\u201d sittings were extended to the entire province by 1851. In newer settlements, court was sometimes held in shops, private homes, and even in the local tavern. The court\u2019s stature and civic pride demanded better, and the nineteenth century witnessed a courthouse building boom across the province.\nThe result was a collection of impressive buildings, many of them still standing \u2013 monuments to the pursuit of justice. Towns vied to become the site of the county courthouse and enjoy the status and economic spinoffs they provided as litigants and witnesses converged for court business. Courtrooms echoed with cases of all kinds, from lurid murders to mundane disputes over unpaid bills. The courthouse was often the focus of community events, hosting public meetings, political rallies and serving as an enlistment centre in wartime. Many early courthouses were housed in the same building as the county jail, and it was \u2013 and remains \u2013 common for the Supreme Court to share facilities with other courts. In many areas the Province has built larger, more secure justice centres, a trend that will continue as age, building codes and increasing caseloads make some older courthouses obsolete. Several of these landmarks have already found second careers as museums.\nAnnapolis County \u2013 Annapolis Royal, 1837\nAs the birthplace of Canada\u2019s common law system of justice, it is fitting that Annapolis Royal has a courthouse described as \u201cexpensive and magnificent\u201d and \u201cprobably the best in the province\u201d shortly after its completion in 1837. Adjacent to Fort Anne, it replaced a courthouse dating from 1793 that burned in 1836. The first floor, built of granite blocks, houses the jail; the stuccoed second storey, accessed via two flights of stairs meeting at the central entrance door, contains offices and the Supreme Court\u2019s oak-paneled courtroom. Four columns frame the front door and the hipped roof is topped with a cupola added during renovations in the 1920s. It is the oldest courthouse in the province that remains in use.\nAntigonish County \u2013 Antigonish, 1855\nWith its imposing Greek Revival columns and tall windows, the Antigonish courthouse stands as a monument to the town\u2019s mid-nineteenth century pride and prosperity. It was too grand for some people\u2019s tastes \u2013 a number of residents signed a petition to the legislature that complained of the \u201cconsiderable sum of money\u201d spent on the building. While the date of construction is uncertain, descendants of its builder \u2013 Antigonish contractor Alexander McDonald, known locally as \u201cSandy the Carpenter\u201d \u2013 suggest it was completed in 1855. The county jail, built of stone, is attached to the rear of the building. The courthouse survived a serious fire in the 1940s and continues to be the venue for the area\u2019s Supreme Court cases.\nArgyle (District) \u2013 Tusket, 1805\nThe oldest surviving courthouse in Canada, Tusket\u2019s venerable courthouse was completed in 1805 to serve an area that was in the midst of an economic boom fueled by shipbuilding, fishing and milling. A bell tower at one end of its gabled roof, directly above the main entrance, gives the building the look of a church and belies its dual role as a courthouse and jail. The building was doubled in length in 1833 and was lengthened again in 1870, but otherwise its facade has undergone few changes in two centuries.\nThe most famous trial held at the courthouse took place in 1922 \u2013 Omar P. Roberts was convicted of killing his housekeeper and became the last man hanged for murder in Yarmouth County. The building was used for court sessions and housed the offices of the Municipality of Argyle until 1976. Through the efforts of three local residents, the courthouse was restored and reopened in 1983 as a museum and archives.\nBarrington (District) \u2013 Barrington, 1843\nBarrington\u2019s New England settlers built this courthouse as the community\u2019s \u201ctown house\u201d \u2013 the site of the local jail as well as a venue for town meetings and elections. When the District of Barrington was established as a separate municipal unit in 1854, the building became its courthouse. The second floor housed the courtroom, judge\u2019s chambers, jury room and robing rooms for lawyers. It is the province\u2019s third oldest surviving courthouse, but renovations and additions over the years have muted its formal Georgian symmetry.\nCape Breton County \u2013 Sydney\nAs Cape Breton\u2019s largest urban centre, Sydney has long been the focus for court business on the island. The city\u2019s earliest courthouse was built in 1786 and stood on North Charlotte Street. It was replaced in 1868 by a new structure on DesBarres Street. It, in turn, was replaced by a new courthouse in 1901, built near the site of the original courthouse and designed by the Hopson Brothers. This courthouse burned in 1959 and a modern, multi-storey courthouse to serve Cape Breton County was opened in 1962 on Crescent Street, overlooking Wentworth Park. Poor indoor air quality forced the closure of the courthouse in the 1990s, but it was later renovated, rechristened Silicon Island and is now home to high-tech businesses. The county\u2019s courts are now housed in the Harbour Place development on Charlotte Street.\nColchester County \u2013 Truro, 1904\nA building \u201cmore in harmony with the wealth, intelligence and public spirit of Colchester.\u201d That was the goal of the citizens of the county and the bustling railway and factory town of Truro when they set out to build a new courthouse at the dawn of the twentieth century. By then the town\u2019s courthouse was approaching its sixtieth year and was considered a \u201crather disreputable structure,\u201d its Greek-inspired columns defaced with graffiti and its interior \u201cshabby and not at all imposing.\u201d\nIn 1903 a leading architect of the day, James Dumaresq of Halifax, was commissioned to design a new courthouse, a massive brick building trimmed in sandstone. Four stone pillars, two storeys in height, frame the main entrance to the structure, which also houses the county council chambers. A four-storey turret graces one side of the building, and a mix of windows topped with arches and keystones add interest to the facade. The large courtroom is crowned with a coved ceiling that frames a skylight of decorative leaded glass, allowing natural light to flood in. When completed in 1904, the warden of Colchester declared the building \u201csecond to none in the Province.\u201d An addition was added in 1972 and the building remains in use by the court.\nCumberland County \u2013 Amherst, 1889\nBuilt of red sandstone quarried within the town limits, this substantial courthouse befitted Amherst\u2019s position as a major manufacturing centre when it was built in 1889. An arched central entrance and scalloped carvings above the tall windows combine to create an impressive facade. The second-floor courtroom is reached using a pair of elaborately carved staircases. An addition was added to the rear of the building in 1960s to provide more office space. It is the fourth courthouse to serve this county, replacing a wooden structure on the same site that burned down in 1887. It borders on a park formerly know as Court Square but renamed Victoria Square in 1887 \u2013 the year the previous courthouse was destroyed \u2013 to mark Queen Victoria\u2019s fiftieth year on the throne.\nDigby County \u2013 Digby, 1910\nThe fire that destroyed the Annapolis Royal courthouse in 1836 provided an opportunity for the residents of western Annapolis County to demand their own municipality \u2013 with its own courthouse and registry offices. Digby County was duly established in 1837 and the town of Digby was chosen over Weymouth, a port further to the west, as the site of the courthouse. The original Georgian-style structure was considered inadequate by the turn of the century and a larger brick structure was erected on the same site and completed in 1910. It features castle-like rounded turrets, topped with a conical roof, at each corner. Prominent architect Leslie Fairn, fresh from designing the King\u2019s County courthouse in Kentville, drew up the plans. The building also housed the county council chambers and the courtroom features a two-tier public gallery and the scales of justice carved into a wood panel above the judge\u2019s bench.\nGuysborough County \u2013 Guysborough, 1843\nEven though it dates to 1843, the Guysborough courthouse is the third to serve a county founded by disbanded British soldiers after the American Revolution. The first courthouse, which also housed the jail, was built in 1790 and a replacement was completed in 1825. It was replaced, in turn, by a simple, one-storey courthouse with a gabled roof and windows featuring Gothic arches reminiscent of a church. A separate jail building was erected next door. When court was not in session, the building hosted municipal council meetings and rallies and housed exhibits for agricultural fairs held on its grounds. Court sittings moved to the town\u2019s new municipal building in 1973 and the courthouse is now a museum.\nHalifax County \u2013 Halifax, 1860\nThe Supreme Court convened for the first time in 1754 in a building at the corner of Argyle and Buckingham Streets, now the site of the Scotia Square office towers. After this building burned down in July 1789, court was held for a time in a large room at the Golden Ball tavern. Space was then leased from a local merchant \u2013 a \u201clow, dark\u201d upstairs room in a warehouse located on the site now occupied by the Art Gallery of Nova Scotia. A new County Courthouse was built for the lower courts about 1810, adjacent to the city\u2019s open-air market on George Street, but the Supreme Court was destined for grander surroundings. Upon the completion in 1818 of Province House, the fine sandstone building on Hollis Street that houses the Legislature and its offices, the Supreme Court moved into the second-floor chamber now used as the Legislative Library.\nBy the 1850s a decision was made to consolidate all the courts under one roof. After fires razed many downtown buildings during that decade, officials abandoned plans for a wooden structure in favour of a more fireproof one made of stone, to protect the legal records it would house. A Toronto-based architect, William Thomas, was retained and created a palatial structure in sandstone, replete with carvings of the faces of snarling lions and stern, bearded men. A temple-like projection from the facade dwarfs the entrance doors and those who enter \u2013 a fitting image to convey the power and majesty of the courts. After its completion in 1860, a city directory gushed that the building \u201ccannot be surpassed for architectural beauty by any city of the same size on the continent of America.\u201d\nLocated near the foot of Spring Garden Road, the building initially housed two courtrooms. An addition to the back in the 1880s added a third. Matching wings were erected on either end of the building in 1908 and 1930 to add additional courtroom and office space. The courthouse suffered $19,000 in damage in the 1917 Halifax Explosion, even though it was far removed from the site of the blast. Its courtrooms have been described as the \u201cmost flamboyantly decorated\u201d of any in the province, rich in fine woodwork and plaster details. One of the courtrooms even featured an elevator that could ferry prisoners directly into the courtroom from the cells below, but it was removed in the 1930s after is malfunctioned and left a prisoner trapped between floors.\nAfter a modern Law Courts complex for Halifax County was built on the waterfront in 1971, the old courthouse (designated a national historic site in 1969) was transformed into a provincial government library. The seven-storey Law Courts provided eleven courtrooms \u2013 enough for the Supreme Court and its newly created Appeal Division, as well as the County and Provincial courts. By the 1980s, however, more judges and support staff were needed to deal with an increasing caseload and the building proved too small to accommodate all levels of court. The Provincial Court returned to the refurbished Spring Garden Road courthouse in 1985.\nHants County \u2013 Windsor 1950\nHants County is divided into two smaller municipalities, East and West Hants. The largest town in West Hants, Windsor, emerged as an important commercial and railway centre and was home to King\u2019s College, the province\u2019s first institution of higher learning, until it was relocated to Halifax in the 1920s after a disastrous fire. Windsor was among the first communities outside Halifax to host Supreme Court sittings after the circuit system was established in 1774.\nA courthouse was built on the present-day site of Christ Church in 1804, and was followed by a succession of court buildings at the corner of King and Victoria streets. The courthouse erected in 1897 was an elegant, two-storey brick building, with a hipped roof and large domed windows. It burned in December 1946 and the current courthouse was built at the same corner in 1950, with chief Justice J.L. Ilsley laying the cornerstone. Charles Killinbeck of Kentville produced the functional design, which is far less ornate than its predecessor, and the building also housed the county jail and its 17 cells. Court sittings have been transferred to the regional justice centre in Kentville.\nEast Hants had its own courthouse as early as the 1860s. It was built in Gore, a small farming community where antimony \u2013 a metal used to strengthen lead \u2013 was mined for export to Wales from the 1880s until 1917. The courthouse stood for 90 years on a site known locally as \u2018Judgment Hill,\u2019 but it was no longer in use for court sessions when it was destroyed by fire in 1956.\nInverness County \u2013 Port Hood 1936\nIn 1824, shortly after Cape Breton was annexed to mainland Nova Scotia, the island was divided into judicial districts and Port Hood, on the western coast, was proclaimed the site where the \u201cCourts of Common Pleas and Session of the Peace shall hereinafter be held.\u201d With its large harbour and thriving fishing industry, Port Hood was a natural choice as shiretown (the seat of local government) when Inverness County was established in 1837.\nThe community has had a succession of courthouses, all located on the aptly named Court House Square. The first was a small stone structure built sometime after 1825. It was replaced in 1872 by a building that boasted a large courtroom with galleries ringing the rear and side walls, giving spectators prime seats for viewing the proceedings. This courthouse was destroyed by fire in December 1935, along with many of the court records it contained. The current courthouse was completed in 1936 and renovated in the 1940s. A major extension was added to the north end of the building in 1967 to provide additional office space.\nKing\u2019s County \u2013 Kentville, 1903\nKentville replaced Wolfville as the administrative centre for King\u2019s County in the 1780s, and a combination courthouse and jail was built in 1829. It was destroyed by fire 20 year later but the replacement courthouse was considered \u201cscandalously inefficient\u201d and \u201can eyesore to the community\u201d by the turn of the century. A leading Maritime architect, Leslie A. Fairn, was commissioned to design a new courthouse on Cornwallis Street in 1903.\nBuilt of brick and topped with a cupola and weather vane, the building housed county offices on the ground floor and the Supreme Court chamber on the floor above. The courtroom is ornate, with stained walnut paneling and the scales of justice carved in wood above the judge\u2019s bench \u2013 reputedly the work of a local inmate. According to one observer, major trials would prompt men from all over the county to converge on Kentville and \u201call day remain spell-bound in the stifling courtroom, listening to the evidence as the various witnesses were called.\u201d A modern Law Courts, part of a new municipal building, opened on the same street in 1980 and the old courthouse is now the King\u2019s Historical Society Museum.\nLunenburg County \u2013 Lunenburg, 1892; Bridgewater, 1893\nCourthouses and municipal offices bring jobs, economic spinoffs and prestige to their host communities. Towns would sometimes vie for the honour of being the \u201cshiretown\u201d or county seat, and in Lunenburg County this rivalry led to the construction of two courthouses. Lunenburg, founded in 1754 and only the second Nova Scotia settlement established under British rule, erected a courthouse in 1775. When a replacement was needed in the late 1800s officials in the bustling lumber town of Bridgewater also claimed the right to host the new courthouse. After three years of debate and legal actions, courthouses were built in both communities.\nThe Lunenburg courthouse, completed first in 1892, is a towering building of brick and stone designed in the Second Empire style that features a mansard roof and entrances that project from the centre of the facade. Bridgewater followed a year later with large wooden structure in the same architectural style, with a central tower rising over the main entrance. Both buildings provided courtrooms, judge\u2019s chambers and jury rooms. The county council, saddled with the expense of maintaining duplicate facilities, agreed to hold its meetings at both buildings on an alternating basis.\nPictou County \u2013 Pictou, 1856\nAfter its creation as a separate district in 1790, Pictou was in desperate need of a courthouse. The first sittings of the Supreme Court were reportedly held in a barn that also housed a pig sty and, in summer, jurors retired to a nearby pasture to consider their verdicts. A courthouse and jail building was erected in 1813. The prosperity of the county\u2019s coalfields and factories led to the construction in the 1850s of an ornate two-storey building decorated with exterior architectural flourishes and intricate wood carving and mouldings inside.\nThe impressive Supreme Court chamber was two stories high, with a spectators\u2019 gallery and a stained glass window depicting the goddess of justice with her sword and scales. A federal government heritage report described it as \u201cthe most elaborately detailed courthouse constructed of wood in Nova Scotia.\u201d Sadly, the building fell victim to arson and burned to the ground in 1985. By then court sessions were held in a new facility, the Pictou Justice Centre, built on the town\u2019s waterfront in the 1970s.\nQueen\u2019s County \u2013 Liverpool, 1854\nWith its classic architecture, the Queens County courthouse in Liverpool would be at home among the temples of ancient Greece. A large portico, spanning the entire width of the front facade, is supported by four massive, fluted columns. The impressive wooden building was erected in 1854 to replace a predecessor that visiting Supreme Court judges condemned as \u201ctruly disgraceful.\u201d The new building, in contrast, was praised in the local newspaper as \u201cvery comfortable, substantial and well built.\u201d It is also compact, consisting of an entry hall, courtroom and rooms for the judge and lawyers laid out on a single floor. A dispute among local officials over where it should be sited within the town continued even after its completion \u2013 one of the first cases heard within its walls dealt with an attempt to withhold payment to the builder. Built the year the Supreme Court marked its centennial, it remains in use.\nRichmond County \u2013 Arichat, 1847\nThe port of Arichat, on Cape Breton\u2019s southern coast, was one of the province\u2019s busiest ports \u2013 hailed as \u201cthe key to the Canadas\u201d due to its strategic location at the entrance to the Strait of Canso \u2013 when its impressive courthouse was erected in 1847. The designer of this \u201cornament to the County of Richmond,\u201d as local officials described it, was Alexander McDonald, who went on to build courthouses with nearly identical Greek-inspired facades in Sherbrooke and Antigonish. Besides housing the jail, Supreme Court chamber and offices, the courthouse was the heart community life from its inception until the early 1900s, hosting election debates, gala balls and even traveling vaudeville shows. A rear addition was built in 1978 to house municipal and court offices and the courtroom remains in use.\nShelburne County \u2013 Shelburne \u2013 1903\nAfter this South Shore town was founded by Loyalists in 1784, court was held in a rented house near the centre of the community. Archival records show a permanent courthouse was built about 1849 at the corner of King and Mowat streets. The current courthouse, a three-storey, wood-frame structure, was built in 1902-03 and designed by Halifax architect Harris S. Tremaine. A two-storey brick addition was completed in the 1960s. The building houses a courtroom, municipal and court offices, the sheriff\u2019s department and a jail.\nThe courthouse was the scene of Nova Scotia\u2019s last execution. In December 1937, Everett Farmer of Shelburne was hanged for the murder of his half-brother. A makeshift gallows was built in a room on the building\u2019s second floor that was so small, it could barely accommodate the executioner and the half-dozen witnesses (the practice of holding public executions ended in the mid-1800s). A large beam was erected across the ceiling of the room to support the noose, which dangled over a hole cut in the floor. When a trapdoor covering the hole was sprung, the condemned man\u2019s body dropped through and into the room below, breaking his neck.\nSt. Mary\u2019s (District) \u2013 Sherbrooke, 1858\nIn 1841, within a year of the District of St. Mary\u2019s being carved out of neighbouring Guysborough County, a courthouse was built at its most important village, Sherbrooke. Almost immediately, local officials began raising money and making plans for a more elaborate structure. The builder, Alexander McDonald, copied the Greek Revival plan he had used in his earlier courthouses in Antigonish and Arichat, with four temple-style columns to frame the main entrance. The courthouse was used for an array of public meetings and lectures over the years, but officials rejected a bid to use it for a dance school.\nNamed in 1815 in honour of Sir John Sherbrooke, Nova Scotia\u2019s lieutenant governor, the settlement became a boom town after gold was discovered in the area in the 1860s. Little changed since the gold rush ended in the late 1800s, the community found new life in 1969 as the province\u2019s largest museum. More than 25 of its historic homes, shops and public buildings have been preserved as they were a century ago and are open to the public. Among them is the courthouse, was continued to be used for court sessions until July 2000. With its excellent acoustics, the courthouse has found new life as a venue for concerts and theatrical performances.\nVictoria County \u2013 Baddeck, 1890\nVictoria County was created in 1851 but managed to soldier on without a courthouse for almost four decades. A jail was built in 1852 at Baddeck, the county seat, but court sessions apparently were held in the home of the local magistrate. The jail was demolished and replaced in 1890 with the courthouse that still stands on the site. The granite-block first storey housed the jail and offices, with an oak staircase leading to the Supreme Court chamber on the second floor. The second storey was built of wood, with large windows overlooking the Bras d\u2019Or Lakes. A wing to house additional court and municipal offices was added in 1967, matching the original architecture. A further expansion was completed in 1980.\nYarmouth County \u2013 Yarmouth, 1933\nYarmouth, the largest community in southwestern Nova Scotia, was a major centre for trade, fishing, shipbuilding and manufacturing in the nineteenth century. The community\u2019s first courthouse was built in 1820, but two of its three replacements succumbed to fire. The courthouse built in 1863 burned down in 1921. A new one was erected, only to be destroyed by fire a decade later. The current courthouse was opened in 1933 and survived a 1988 fire. A two-storey structure built of brick, its functional exterior incorporates traditional Georgian features and symmetry that produce a blend of the old and the new.\nSources: C.A.

        "raw_content": "Keller @ Large: Proposed Meals On Wheels Cut Is Disgusting\nThe truth is, even in the unlikely event that this budget cut makes it through the legislative process, it won't mean the end of Meals on Wheels, the program that provides thousands of mainly poor or isolated seniors with food and human contact they would otherwise go without.\nJenny Bertolette, vice president of communications at Meals on Wheels, said it saw \"an nearly 500 percent jump in volunteer sign-ups\" through their website AmericaLetsDoLunch.org.\nSince most Meals on Wheels programs use funding from several sources, it's unlikely that the cuts will end the services completely.\nBut the federal \"Budget Blueprint\", released by the White House on Thursday, proposes to eliminate $3 billion worth of Community Development Block Grants that help programs like Meals on Wheels of Greater Lafayette.\nMulvaney said the budget would allocate $1.5 billion this year and $2.6 billion in 2018 to build a southern border wall, and would fund tests to determine the cost efficiency, safety, and effectiveness of different types of barriers. It's received $517 million in federal funding through the Older Americans Act, which supports social and nutritional services for Americans over the age of 60. The Budget devolves community and economic development activities to the State and local level, and redirects Federal resources to other activities.\n\"You have an \"America First\" candidate and you have an \"America First\" budget\", Mulvaney said.\n\"I put myself in the shoes of that steelworker in OH, the coal-mining family in West Virginia, the mother of two in Detroit, and I'm saying, 'OK, I have to go ask these folks for money, and I have to tell them where I'm going to spend it'\". \"It really misses the mark\", Collins said. \"And I think that is about as compassionate as you can get\".\nBut the 5,000 local Meals on Wheels offices, which do the layman's work of providing the meals and services to seniors, receive a significant chunk of their money from funding that could be on the chopping block.\nAnd while Budget Director Mick Mulvaney said the president drafted the budget \"for the entire nation because that's who he sees himself representing\", not everyone agrees, including former CBS anchor Dan Rather.\nThe NBC correspondent's slant emerged when he added, \"It turns out, what they have to lose is at least $6 billion that goes to many programs that benefit those communities\".\nAs you know, Meals on Wheels is not a federal program.\nUSC defeats SMU in the first round\nDuke basketball coach Mike Krzyzewski calls North Carolina's HB2 a \"stupid thing\"\nStocks Alert CIBER, Inc.

Stock exchanged hands with the total volume of 2.01 Million shares, as contrast to its average volume of 4.01 Million shares.\nAfter all, both Dlamini and President Jacob Zuma have repeatedly denied that there is a crisis around Sassa payments. As shareholders we would be happy if this means Net1 foregoes all profits on the contract extension.\nArticle 50, which will give Theresa May the power to begin the process of leaving the European Union , has been granted royal assent.\nMouctar Diakhaby gave Lyon the lead in the 16th minute before Kevin Strootman equalised for Roma a minute later. Genk eliminated fellow Belgians Gent 6-3 on aggregate after a 1-1 draw.\nGerman Chancellor Angela Merkel and French President Francois Hollande on Thursday said such remarks were \"unacceptable\". Mr Erdogan responded by saying that although he had won the election, he had lost Turkey's friendship.\nPresident Obama no longer resides in the White House, but that doesn't mean he isn't filling out a bracket this season. Former President Barack Obama is picking North Carolina to win the men's NCAA Tournament over Duke .\nSecretary of State Rex Tillerson said on Thursday, although he did not say what the Trump administration planned. Joel Wit of the U.S. -Korea Institute at Johns Hopkins University says he wouldn't read too much into this.\nHe said speech on campus should be diverse but felt university administrators were stifling certain points of view. Holzem said there was much more to the story but declined to elaborate, citing possible legal action.\nThe final Day of Cheltenham Festival starts at 1.30pm for one last bout of fast paced horse races at Prestbury Park.

The Use of Online Auctions in the Sale of Surplus Property\nEnrico Ferro and Lucy Dadayan\nProceedings of the Thirty-Ninth Annual Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences (CD/ROM), January 4-7,2006, Computer Society Press, Tue, 31 Jan 2006, Eight pages.\nE-commerce, and online auctions in particular, represent important examples of how information and communication technologies have been employed by public organizations to gain benefits in both efficiency and effectiveness. While online auctions have widely been used by governments around the world to drive down procurement costs, they have been seldom used as means for revenue maximization. In this article, we discuss the three-year experience gained by New York State in the use of online auctions for the sale of surplus inventory and property.\nThis case study, besides representing an example of a best practice for other US state and local governments as well as European Governments, also provides an interesting starting point to address a number of research questions such as the ability of governmental organizations to meet private sector standard; the measurement of returns on Information and Communication Technology (ICT) investments; and the new possible roles played by transparency in the migration toward online models.",

If you're looking for an extraterrestrial, meteorites are your safest, surest and most accessible option.\nIf you know how to psychometrically read a meteorite, the results could be interesting, to say the least.\nThink about it though, everything we see is recycled stardust taking various shapes and forms, in a variety of dimensions. We really are all-one.\nMeteorites wrapped in silver or copper wire are a beautiful way you can wear a meteorite wherever you go. One way of saying: I am connected to everything that is.\nPeople did not always believe that meteorites are bodies from outer space, somewhere other than earth, who have \"landed\" here. What happens when a meteor hits the ground? As most meteors are small, usually not much,and indentations they make soon disappear due to erosion. However, 49,000 years ago, a large meteor created Barringer Meteor Crater in Arizona, formerly known as Canyon Diablo Crater.\nBarringer Crater, Arizona.\nThe meteorite which made it was almost entirely composed of nickel-iron, suggesting that it may have originated in the interior of a small planet.\nIt was not until 1960 that research by Eugene M. Shoemaker would confirm Barringer's hypothesis that this crater was indeed made by a large object coming from space. The kind of mineral composition found in the Crater cannot be created by volcanic action; the only known mechanism of creating them is through an impact event.\nShoemaker's discovery was the first definitive proof of an extraterrestrial impact on the Earth's surface and caused a sensation in the geological world. Since then, numerous impact craters have been identified around the world.\nHere is a fun video:",

        "title": "James Blunt: Back To Bedlam | Daily Vault",
        "raw_content": "This album isn't going to cause a worldwide phenomenon. It's not likely that it's going to gain appeal from the devoted My Chemical Romance and Fall Out Boy fans sweeping the nation at the moment. But it does something more than that, something more than Mariah Carey with her overwhelming amount of #1 hit singles or the already overexposed pop stars of our era can claim to.\nBack To Bedlam makes an impact on you, albeit it a quiet, subtle impact, but one that leaves the songs imprinted somewhere deeper than your usual disposable pop. It just might even take your breath away, which is just as much of a compliment as a truckload of Grammy nominations.\nJames Blunt builds Back To Bedlam on imperfections, from the fuzz of the drums to his occasional lack of grace while switching to falsetto. But coupled with introspective, near-heartbreaking lyrics (for example, from \"Goodbye My Lover,\" \"I am a dreamer but when I wake / You can't break my spirit / It's my dreams you take\"), this album is one of the most engaging debuts I've managed to stumble across, not to mention the album that's become impossible to eject from my stereo.\nBlunt, a British soldier turned musician, injects his own irresistible blend of influences into this album. Whether it's the jaunty, unmistakably Elton John-esque keys of \"Billy\" or \"You're Beautiful,\" reminiscent of Damien Rice's earlier hit \"The Blower's Daughter,\" Blunt sweeps through love and loss and regret almost effortlessly. He even drops in a reference to Oscar Wilde's corrupt creation Dorian Gray from The Picture Of Dorian Gray in \"Tears And Rain,\" which, admittedly, is enough to win me over.\nThe heartfelt simplicity in Blunt's debut may not be the most groundbreaking of debuts, but its success is received from more than that. From intricate arrangements to Blunt's agonizingly captivating lyrics, Back To Bedlam's winsome, stripped-down approach to some of the most overused emotions in music stands out not in spite of its flaws but, endearingly enough, because of them.\n\u00a9 2006 Melanie Love and The Daily Vault.

        "raw_content": "Your feelings are valid because they are your own. It seems like he \"makes time\" for you, but you want to be a priority. I think that's completely valid, especially since you guys have been dating for a while.\nThis is a perfect example to be who you are, even if its not easy going all the time. Things cannot always \"go with the flow\", no matter what any dirty hippie says!\n\"Just acknowledging my feelings helped me to exorcise them.\"\nYou said that. Now REMEMBER that.\nI was always one of those people who kept their feelings bottled up. Bad, I know. But I've started expressing myself more. Much more. Just TELLING my husband how I feel, even if there's no resolution to the problem, makes me feel a thousand times better. I feel lighter of mind. Lighter of burden. Lighter of spirit. Just by SAYING what I'm feeling.\nKeep doing that.\nWhile I applaude both you and Abraham spending time with friends without feeling that either of you have to drag your sig other around everywhere you go (because you know how I feel about that) I also wonder why you can't join him in partying with his best friend as well as watching football. I guess there's always a balance that needs to be maintained.\nThis is what I'm confused about- You obviously wanted to spend time with him this weekend so why didn't you ask if you could join?\nWhen you see him on the weekends is it only after he's done something else or do you actually do things with him? It seems odd that you're spending so much time together during the week, but still not at the point where he'd invite you to watch the game or come out with another girl that he's having stay at his apartment. Obviously it's not a \"boys night\" if a girl friend of his is the focus of the weekend. Is that the real reason you felt anxiety? There seems to be something about this story that you're not writing here.\nI'm also confused as to how you can be a \"breezy girlfriend\" when you are not his girlfriend.\nAs much as I feel like anonymous' tone was a tad critical and judgemental, I also wonder why you couldn't be included in some of the plans. A reaction which, I'm sure, is influenced by my own experiences. However, know that every relationship is different, especially as we mature and grow as individuals and value the time away from our mate. I live with mine and sometimes find myself making excuses to do things alone just so I'm maintaining a level of me-time that I feel is healthy.\nOne thing that I very much admire about you is that you're incredibly in touch and self-aware with your reactions and emotions, something I still struggle with. Being able to even have that conversation about why you felt anxious without picking a fight with him was, in my opinion, huge.\n... You need to remember that no one is \"super awesome\" ALL the time.\nLordy, good god - the amount of times I've felt this way! Trusting would be the obvious answer and choice - but I don't because I've been burned before.\nI'm thankful for the knowledge of the past, but sometimes I just want to forget the hell out of it. Be more present, in the moment, and believe.\nRose, I swear I'm going to stencil that on my wall.\nTo clear up a point of confusion, where I come from it's bad etiquette to invite someone to someone else's birthday celebration. I'm not worried about the girl; I've met her a handful of times and she was there while we were cuddling on the couch this week.\nBad etiquette aside, have you ever asked him, \"Can I come with?\" when he's had plans that didn't involve you.\n1) You asked him if he didn't want to see you or if he didn't care and then supplied him with the answer you wanted to hear. Why didn't you just say, \"Why don't you want to see me this weekend?\" or better yet, \"Why don't you include me in your weekend plans?\"\n2) You broke down over not seeing him and he still did not offer to invite you to what he had going on.\nYour posts are always set up as little stories, but these Abraham entries are wrapping up too nicely. It doesn't seem like you're sharing your real feelings on the blog or to him. It seems like you want to make this situation look better than it actually is. How many posts start with you in his bed or him in yours? What makes this a relationship and not sex buddies?\nI agree with LL&L completely. It's HUGE that you were able to say what was bothering you. Just this past week, I did the crying girlfriend face, followed by three days of \"I don't want to see you,\" and summed up with, \"OMG, I'm a crazy girl, aren't I? Why do you put up with me? WHY DO YOU LOVE ME?\" Being in touch with your feelings is a big deal, not to mention having the balls to voice them. Still, I'd agree with your inner gut that two weekends in a row to be blown off is a lot. I don't have suspicions about Abraham, because you haven't given us any reasons to doubt him, but I would say that I'd be happier if he would have said, \"I'm so sorry, babe! Next weekend is YOURS!\" or something to that effect. But, everyone is different and if this is how he is, then it's OK.\nResolution or no resolution you need to chill on your own if not invited to join him.\nI'm sure at 30 you do understand that appearing to be needy, anxious and insecure - even if you try to hide it in this blog - is a sure way to drive a guy away.\nSarah, I don't think anyone has malicious intents in their comments.\nI think it's very apparent to all of your readers that his lack of commitment in making plans with you on weekends actually bothers and upsets YOU. In my experience, one can't be the girl that goes with the flow and the girl that wants something more, something deeper, at the same time.\nI always wanted to be one of those girls that went with the flow, but with age, I became honest with myself and what I wanted...and alas, I found myself a man that could give that to me.\nI think Sarah has the \"chilling on her own\" thing down pat. She is the busiest person I know. I think she's written before, but maybe it bears repeating... She doesn't post every single second of her life, here.\nYou make her sound like she's sitting on her couch, staring at the phone and willing it to ring. You paint her as a loser, desperately hoping and wishing and praying for A to love her... and you couldn't be more off base.\nI know assumptions create asses, but for all intents and purposes, we should assume that Sarah knows well how to fill her time away from A and also that if she is unhappy with what she has, she has the strength and will to walk away.\nLet's maybe assume that she's happy and that what she has is what she wants at the moment (Not what others might want FOR her) and focus on the little things, like knowing, now, that she doesn't have to exhaust herself being Totally Awesome All the Time and also that A doesn't run screaming from the room when she dares to be a girl.\nI mean, that's what I got out of it.\nI do agree with you that you can't voice every minor complaint you have (can you imagine how unpleasant it would be to date someone like that?!) but at the same time, you should absolutely bring up the things that are legitimate problems for you, things that are causing you pain or unhappiness. I think you absolutely made the right call in bringing it up! If he's worth his salt, he won't run at the slightest expression of discomfort.\nAlso, to the anonymous person who said \"I'm sure at 30 you do understand that appearing to be needy, anxious and insecure is a sure way to drive a guy away\"- how is wanting to spend time with someone you care about being needy? How is being honest about your feelings being insecure? Are you seriously suggesting that people should be insincere in their relationships in hopes of achieving a certain outcome? That sounds pretty lame. PS, there is no faster way to derail a relationship than pretending to be cool with something when you're not.\nWhen The Coach is in town, I walk the same tightrope.\nI am mostly okay with chilling by myself -- I fill up my calendar just fine on my own, thank you -- but I still notice those weekends when he's too busy for me. I just do. And I wish that I was so easygoing that I didn't. But I'm not.\nYou don't appear needy. Not to me. (Maybe that's because we're walking in the same shoes, if you will.) You seem honest. There's nothing wrong with honest.\n\"And maybe it helped to receive confirmation that he is so comfortable in our relationship that he didn't feel the need to treat it with kid gloves.\"\nHow are you getting that from him not understanding why you were upset, repeating the line you wanted him to say, agreeing that chilling out was a good resolution for you, and then patting your back, and telling you he'd do his best this weekend? Doing his best could mean anything or absolutely nothing. How did you come to conclusion that his reactions made him comfortable in the relationship? What you are spinning as comfort could easily be viewed as apathy.\nWell said Ms Jones!\nWe ALL think like this, to a greater or lesser degree, we all want to be prioritized. Sarah, speaking up and exposing your feelings like that was a bloody brave thing to do and the reward: Abraham gets where you're coming from and your internal battle.\nI don't think I'd be that brave in your situation so good on ya!\nAnon commenters should maybe get their lives instead of over-analyzing/judging someone else's.\nWhoa your Singleship! You suggest that I implied that stating one's want to spend time with another qualifies as being needy to which I say yes, if one's want encrouches upon someone else's ability to spend time away while the alternatives to being anxious and insecure don't necessarily involve being dishonest or insincere, just confident and grounded enough to know that you can't force anyone to relate to where you're coming from or to fit the mold you designed in your own head/heart of the perfect guy.\nBTW: I dated my husband for 7 years with 1,000 miles in between and we managed to do so because we were not only busy with our jobs, hobbies and friends but also gave each other a sense of inner peace and security that was not only very reassuring but eventually did ensure \"the outcome\", which had nothing to do with \"pretending to be cool\" but rather with being cool about our expectations...\nPost gave me a bad gut feeling.\nThat Sarah is second-grade NON-Jewish girlfriend.\nNot to be taken seriously or included in outings with his \"real friends\"\nWhat utter nonsense about driving another woman around on her birthday. If she's met you and seen you cuddling with A, how come she did not include you in the birthday party plans? Because they consider you a 'fling'? This story does not sound right. You sound more and more like a convenient F buddy than an \"almost girlfriend\". A will never include you in his other life with his friends if you continue to act like you're cool about \"not being invited\".\nI recall you painted things with Scott with rose petals and then we were all shocked to hear the truth about how abusive he was. I hope it's not the same with A.\nNothing really to add, just wanted to say that I've been there, and I can so relate. I always wanted to be the \"cool\" girlfriend, and instead ended up bottling up a lot of stuff inside--even when I was with a boyfriend of three years. I'm getting to the point though where I think I'd rather just be honest and up front about my needs. (That is, if I can find someone to stick around long enough to try it on. Yeah, it's a double-edged sword, the honest and up front thing.)\nPeople need to stop with the hateful comments.\nAll the negativity and judgement is unnecessary and, personally, I think bringing up the past was a low blow.\nI've seen plenty of bloggers that just quit or start a brand new anonymous blog after feeling the need to start editing their writing or that they can't write freely.\nI hope this doesn't turn out to be the case because I love your writing and can definitely relate.\nIt is huge that you were able to say what was upsetting you. The only issue I see, in that, is if you keep speaking up, and there are no changes in the long-term.\nI understand why some are concerned, because of the things you've written like this (like the FB thing, and New Year's eve). He has a history, too, though, and Sarah said that he wasn't used to girls wanting him (right? something like that). He might be just as nervous, and it's been three/four months, not a year. She's a writer, and has made no bones about the fact that she presents her posts here in a certain way (like a story); I was going to compliment her on her writing last night.\nSo, I get it, but remember Valdosta, his making time to see her on Christmas Day (I still love that post). He was gone the following month. I like that Abraham stopped with the \"sexy move\" and held you instead. I wonder about his not inviting you along to certain things, but I - as a member of your community here, who can do nothing about it if he does end up being a jerk - am willing to give him the benefit of the doubt for now.\nShe's being honest about her feelings here. She isn't hiding anything, with all of you, him, or herself. People need to remember that she isn't a character in a television show or a book; she may write a certain way, but she's actually living this. She's already written about the fact that she learned from S. and isn't about to go down that road again.\nConversely, I'm one of the anonymous writers - the married one - writing as such just to avoid having to change my username in in the event that Sarah or one of her followers decides to 'judge' my commentary, which does come with the territory when one keeps a blog but cannot keep up with the resulting fodder.\nAt this point, I'm more than a little confused by what I've read recently and then perplexed by what Angela said in her defense...is Sarah relating 'true stories' or just embellishing a common snow flake and if so, would the real Sarah a)stand up? b)be happy to continue to get what she puts into her writing exercise? or c)could she start telling it like it is so that others may relate real-life experiences so that she may finally land a decent man?\nMs. Jones has said exactly what I think. These anonymous commenters fail to realize that these posts are merely snippits of life. I know that you do not blog about every single moment, but rather choose the moments that mean something to you and make the best story.\nI LOVE your writing so much and I hope that some of the negative comments here do not prevent you from writing or change the way you write or what you write about. I can relate to so many of your dating experiences. I think there is a fine line between biting your toungue and being a \"go with the flow girl\" and being vocal about your feelings and needs. I think that Abe has been so used to you doing things on your own and not spending every weekend together that he doesnt even realize that you would be sad to not spend time with him on the weekend. You have probably been so easy, breezy that he thinks it is fine. So, I am glad you said something. I do agree with some of the others that it seems like you could have gone along for the friend's birthday party... I wish he would have invited you... and I think you wish he would have invited you too.\nSunshine Junkie said...\nSarah, I love your blog and think you sound like a fantastic girlfriend. I agree that the balance of nagging/ independent is difficult, I think you handled your feeling impressively well. Expressing your feelings doesn't make you that nagging gf, its being unreasonable about the feelings you have that does it.\nAnd, I think everyone likes to hear that they are missed :) Surely Abraham was just a little bit chuffed. And how lovely of him to say that he would make an effort, acknowledging and validating your feelings.\nOh, for heaven's sake. I didn't mean that she embellishes anything.\nShe's admitting to any doubts and fears that she has, and admitting that she wants things to enjoy the happiness that she is getting in this relationship.\nIt's one thing to ask why Abraham didn't ask her to the New Year's party, or to whatever's going on this weekend - that I understand. Whomever suggested that this might be another \"S\", that he's being abusive and she's hiding it, crossed a line.\nI don't think he's abusive, but I do think he might not be all that into her.\nMost of these stories give me a bad impression of Abraham. It seems sort of like they all involve you being upset about something, trying to be laidback and then deciding that it's your fault for wanting more. But then he doesn't really seem to be wanting to make sure that you're happy with how things are. I guess it's just hard to see the big picture based on stories, so I don't want to make assumptions, though.\nI agree with those that have said these posts give them a bad impression of A. It seems shady that he doesn't invite her out with his friends and that he has yet to meet her friends. And the fact that he doesn't invite her out with him is not a good sign.\nI think the comparison to S's abuse was uncalled for, but this does seem to be a situation where she seems to be sugar coating everything in order to make herself feel better about it all. By this point he should be more involved in the relationship instead of seemingly keeping it a secret which makes it come across as an f-buddy situation.\nI'm not saying that Abraham's abusive either, just saying that what Sarah's 'story' implies is that he's getting away with what she allows. As someone famous says: \"We teach people how to treat us\" and so far, I think he's learned that she'll tolerate a lot, especially his lame excuses for 'being otherwise engaged'...\nFirst, when you invite people into your life via a public blog, you can't really complain when they get invested enough in you and your well being. In fact, you have the benefit of so many out there rooting for you and your happiness. Some are a little harsh in comments, but I think most are well meaning enough. Haven't we all been there when we couldn't see the forest for the trees? Especially knowing the girl, I too feel like it's another huge red flag. She stays all weekend with all of this time devoted to her, time you cannot be a part of, and you have yet to have that kind of commitment from him. If she's just a friend, and she gets that and you don't, it doesn't bode well. If you were included in some of the time and they wanted to hang out just the two of them as well, that would be different, but that's not how it is.\nThe comment about being honest with yourself was dead on. You have a right to whatever feelings you have. As long as you deal with them in a mature way, you should never apologize for them or swallow them. If you want more, say so. He'll either give it to you or he won't, but you need to know. If he won't, he's not for you. I realize it's scary when you feel the answer won't be what you want, but you deserve better, and just like standing up to the idiot and Guy, you can stand up for yourself and your feelings now or hurt even more later. It's been plenty of time. Rip the band aid off, and if he's not willing to give you what you want and need, get busy finding the guy who will. The guy you deserve, and a guy that deserves you.\nWhoever made the comment earlier that it's only been a few months is off. They met this summer and have been been sleeping together since late August/early September. I agree with the last anon., rip off the bandaid and have the define the relationship conversation for real this time. It's been 4-5 months of vagueness. You deserve to know what's really going on. I realize that you might be more afraid of being alone than you are of being in a friends with benefits situation, but it's going to hurt much worse when this ends. I think you are scared to have the conversation because you know that \"being a girl\" will cause A to stop doing what he's doing with you. You have to play it breezy and cool otherwise he won't stick around because he doesn't want labels or a committed relationship.\nMy suggestion is this- tell him you want an official commitment, girlfriend label, and access to his friends and his weekend or you will walk. See what he says. You've having anxiety about not being the casual girl so, in essence, you are upset by the person you are pretending to be around him.\nAll of your readers want you to be happy. It is just very obvious that many of these stories about A involve you swallowing your feelings and playing along to get along. The other stories seem to be you trying to pump up the relationship and justify it. When you were with Valdosta, you didn't have to create scenarios in which he was cute or tie things up with a \"he must just be comfortable\" even when that's not apparent. If this conversation with Abe was verbatim then all you did was comfort yourself while he hugged you. He didn't do anything.\nMan o' Man, talk about a keeper...FYI, I think i am the only guy making a comment. I guess i have always been a bit of the more emotionally involved type in my relationships and i tend to find myself the dumped as opposed to the dumper. eh, what are you gonna do...here i am on your blog making things about me...me ex-girlfriend would like that...\nI think your feelings were totally valid and that bringing it up was the right thing to do. I know you want to be \"easy-going\" but I don't think that should come at the cost of your feelings. You can't complain about everything, but if something is bothering you, you shouldn't hesitate to talk about it with him. That being said, I've totally been in this situation before and I know that voicing one's feelings is easier said than done. More power to you, girl.\nSarah, Pls don't sign off the internet. The comparison to Scott was NOT to imply that Abe was abusing you! It was to ask if you were telling us the full story and not embellishing it to make things sound 'better' than they really are.\nI apologise for using S as comparison. I should have used Valdosta. Okay, here's the comparison I really meant: From what you were writing about Valdosta, he really seemed into you and caring and charming and it sounded like he was going to stick around. Then out of the blue you posted that he ended the relationship.\nIt just seemed like you were telling us the good things or spinning even bad things in a positive light, like the \"puke and rally\" story (if I recall correctly). And then the reality comes and kicks you and us in the teeth when the guy bails, for whatever reason.\nLet me reiterate: I do NOT for one second think Abraham is abusive. He sounds like he wouldn't hurt a fly, and even if he did, it would be by accident, and he might even cry about it. He sounds very caring and extremely fond of you. I love that.\nHowever I was cautious that he might not be as into you as you make out in your stories. If you are happy in a casual or F buddy relationship, GREAT!\nBut it sounds like you kindda want more. And your loyal blog readers want YOU to be happy.\nLegitimate suggestion: Buy and READ 10 stupid things women do to mess up their lives.\nNo comment/judgment on your life/relationship/blog, just a legitimate friendly suggestion that I make to pretty much everyone. I'm not a hypocrite: I read it too.\nI wholly concur with the last anon comment and likewise recommend reading 'Smart Women, Foolish Choices'. Even though it's been around a long time, the premise of it is timeless: \"We find that far too many women forget the real importance of cause and effect in the interactive process of a relationship. They lose contact with their own sense of personal power, particularly when they feel powerless to make the man want to stay. They may confuse that temporary sense of power loss with a more long-term and crippling feeling of powerlessness.\nA man may leave, but he can't take a woman with him. She and she alone is the owner of her personal worth and essence. No one, not the most clever or most dark-hearted of men, can steal that. It can only be given away.\"\np.s. My own copy of this book's dog-eared and tattered, just like a good book should be...\nYou know I kind of get the need for time together. It is an issue I have spoken about with Billy. I tell her, waken up in the morning and seeing you at night does not equal a date.\nIs it possible for the Anonymous commenters to assign themselves a name (you know, like \"The Married One\" or something) so we can keep track of who's saying what?\nUnder \"Choose an identity\" I selected \"Name/URL\" and then just typed \"Fancy\" and left the URL section empty.\nThat way you're still anonymous, but the conversations in the comment section can be followed a bit easier.\nI just find it annoying... But then, I'm totally PMSing so that could by why.\nmarried1 said...\nFancy: Your wish is my command! Not only because you asked so politely but also because aside from respecting your 'current state', I can totally see the value of moderating and organising the comments that Sarah's hopefuly mulling...\nHenceforth, I shall refer to myself as 'married1', same one who commented on embellishing, non-abuse, quoted Dr. Phil and recommended another old book...same 1 who hopes our hostess will soon enlighten us with her thoughts to either affirm or refute our comments...\nI'm just wondering why, when everyone is making assumptions and putting DS on the offensive, she would have to have to address anyone's comments. She's said her piece and everyone sits here all high and might thinking they know all the facts and JUDGING her. Who are WE to pass judgment.\nGood Idea said...\nCaring enough to raise concern isn't judgment, it's caring. Are readers only supposed to have a comment when it's what Sarah would want to hear? I don't think she would want it that way.\nShe's done a great job with the blog and has many readers that genuinely care about her well being.\nIs it better to pretend everything sounds perfect or to be honest as you would with a friend? If the concern offends her, she needs to say so, so that people have a clear understanding of what she wants from posting these stories - honest feedback or positive comments only, but you can't fault people for caring about her or the outcome, when as far as we know, that's the point of this blog.\nI think caring and constructive criticism are one thing. I think blatantly calling DS's judgement and perception into question, and then to bash her is not we are here for.\nIf it were me, I'd just wrap my arms around her and tell her she's been through enough to go with her gut.\nI hope you wound up having some time with Abraham that weekend, as you were hoping for some. And that it was good :)\n\"I think caring and constructive criticism are one thing. I think blatantly calling DS's judgement and perception into question, and then to bash her is not we are here for.\nIf it were me, I'd just wrap my arms around her and tell her she's been through enough to go with her gut.\"\nExactly. If something bothers her enough, she'll address it.\nI don't remember \"S\" being like this. She wrote about his motorcycle accident, about his lack of work - those things I remember. Abraham doesn't sound like that; if anything, he sounds like Valdosta, wherein he is still seeing where this is going. He's been good to her - this seems to be the nicest guy she's had in her life in the past year.\nI hope you enjoyed your weekend, Sarah.\nthat is how your relationship is. you can not express your self to him so just do what you want but be sure that what ever action you do you will not regret it.\nMs. Wisteria Lane said...\nOpinions expressed herein are based on the assumption that this blog's not only a creative writing outlet for the blogger but also an open forum for like-minded people and for those who hold a different point of view but still care about her and the outcome.\n'Judging' by recent events and resulting commentary, I've determined that this might just be 'a fetus pilot' at best or a fluffy site 'a la Carrie' at worst, minus the sophistication and signature drink, unless beer in plastic cups count as such...\nIf this were the latter, the main character would be making a cameo appearance to address her fans' legitimate queries and concerns, or at least make a tiny entry to clarify that this in fact a carefully-edited version of actual events. Her doing so would allow me (and others) to make up my mind on whether I should continue to tune in out of genuine interest or if I should just wish her well, right before I change the channel.\nHold your panties; I'm drafting a response. But know I am writing it for me and not to answer to your not-so-subtle threat.\nCan't wait, Sarah! :)\nIf I'm getting what I put into my writing, then the answer is no. I feel. I cry when I write the sad posts. I laugh to myself when I write the happy ones. I've always been proud that this translates so easily in my writing. I've always felt like my blog is a lunch date. You and I are sitting at an outdoor table eating leafy green salads. Mine has carrots in it. And my posts are what I tell you over our intimate lunch. I expect your response to be what you would say to my face as you are sitting across the table from me. If you wouldn't phrase it that way to me--your friend--to my face, then it shouldn't be written here. And if you would say those kinds of things to my face, then you're not invited to lunch anymore. My words are not being received in the same spirit and vulnerability in which they are written.\nI spent three days heavily considering everything that was written. That I'm wrong. That I'm a liar. And I knew that wasn't the case, but everyone was so insistent that it made me doubt myself. You took my decision-making capabilities away from me and told me my truth was faulty, and it made me feel crazy. This is what happens when you say the things I believe are not real. That the truth is not real. It makes a person feel crazy. You lose faith in yourself. By telling me I was wrong, I was taught not to trust my gut. That's what S used to do, and I felt it happening again.\nBeing with Abraham is the easiest decision I never had to make. I feel at peace when it comes to our relationship. And when the comments do invade my head, the people who know me in real life assure me that I am not mistaken. This is real and this is my truth. There have been other stories. Stories too private and far too special to publish on the Internet for strangers to chew up and spit back at me.\nI feel sorry for you, that your heart isn't open enough to believe my stories. I've agonized over unchanged sentences because they were Abraham's words and not mine. (I would never say \"not either;\" I would say \"neither.\") I've abridged conversations I've documented because I thought they bordered on too cute. I'm glad my heart is open to receive such luxuries. I've done things my way before and look what happened: Valdosta left at my eagerness, Christopher relied on good looks that long since faded and S controlled me with his lies. I think it's a good thing we're not doing things my way anymore. I'm okay with being with Abraham and taking things at a snail's pace. If things are right now, then they'll also be right three months from now. We still progress.\nMore importantly, I'm sorry you feel that Abraham is an average snowflake. Truth is, he is very average. He's an average man who lives in an average flat and drives an average car to an average job that he averagely hates. If you saw him in a bar, you would walk right by him. Just like how you would pass me. And maybe that's why I'm anxious. I'm looking sideways at the world and wondering when it is going to catch up with me and realize what a great person he is. Anyone who has spent any time with him knows how wonderful he is. He is unassumingly funny. He has an attention to unfamiliar detail that I've never seen in a man. He's generous with his attention, affection and time. And if my writing has conveyed anything less than that, then I have failed as a writer.\nAnd if you need an explanation about how a post is a snapshot of about 5 minutes of real life, then those posts are written here and here.\nWell written Sarah - I am sorry these anonymous people are getting to you. Those of us brave enough to put our identities to our comments love your writing and that you share your life with us in this way.\nThanks for taking the time to write such a truthful and heartfelt reply, Sarah.\nYour readers unfortunately can only go on what you write here - and by the sounds of it we have not been privy to many beautiful and significant experiences with Abraham because you have chosen to treasure those for yourself. This makes it difficult for many of us to really see what has been going on and how awesome it has really been for you and explains a lot. On this blog, you have dealt with so many difficult and intimate incidents in your life with such honesty, dignity and grace, we have been spoiled and expect the same level of openness as we have seen in the past. Good on you for doing things on your own terms.\nI think you are awesome. And I love you. And I've seen you through SO MUCH, it seems, in the time we've known one another. Through the blog and beyond. I'm looking out for you. And I hope to say what most people are thinking but not gently or accurately articulating - I worry about you, I hope for you, and I'll catch you when I need to but I'm hopeful I won't have to.\nSarah - You have not failed as a writer. Your missives are eloquent, truthful and achingly honest. I will be less than eloquent when I address the anons. Fuck off. Like one of you said - if you don't like it - change the god damn channel. Piss off. It's easy to sound off behind a computer and be an asshole. If you don't like what you read here, well then, don't read here anymore. Scat.\nI appreciate the response, Sarah. Although I don't agree with the idea that if a friend told you how she felt things were going, and you didn't like it, then you wouldn't have lunch with her anymore. What you may view as \"rude\" or \"mean\" someone else may view as giving you a reality check for your own well-being. I'm sure you have had beauiful moments with Abraham, but it's still concerning that there's no official relationship title, minimal sharing of friends or going on group activities, and no mention of doing anything together on weekends during the day. As I posted earlier, if you are happy with what you have then that's wonderful. My concern as a reader is that you, as a writer, are exaggerating the good parts to yourself so that you feel better when you spend the weekends alone or don't get invited to join his friends. Sometimes the fantasy is better than reality, but reality hurts once it catches up to you.\nYou missed the entire point: I know what's best for my well-being. I know my truth. I have earned the right to make my own decisions. I don't require a reality check from someone who knows about 5 minutes of information. Taking life advice from anonymous people on a blog is like handing over control of my 401(k)over to someone with a checking account.\nAnd just because you haven't read an itinerary, doesn't mean it didn't happen. You want a docket of information to vote on, and that is just not my writing style. I'm afraid you are always going to be frustrated by my style, so it's up to you what you want to do with that.\n@Sarah Maybe its time to close the comments. We all like seeing comments on our blog, \"nice post\" or \"I can relate\" but some of these comments certainly seem like maybe they could have an impact on your relationship with Abraham if you're not careful. I don't think anybody wouldn't want that.\nIf you choose to show readers snippets of your relationship with Abraham, then why do you keep showing us snippets where he doesn't invite you along, doesn't confirm that you're together, etc...? You said you want us to see the best in him, but what you're showing is easily construed as negative.\nI don't expect you to take advice from an anonymous commentor. I'm sorry if comments can make you feel crazy or judged, however you may want to re-read your post and notice that you were the one who said you were anxious and sad that Abraham wasn't going to see you that weekend. You then conjectured that he was comfortable in your relationship which was a non sequitur. Readers wanted you to explore why you felt anxious and sad and offer suggestions to help you not feel that way or make a change so you felt better. That seems to have gotten lost in the comments.\nI agree that readers don't know everything about your situation, but sometimes someone is too involved in their own situation to see it from an outside perspective. I think that's all the commentors are trying to do.\nNo, you are right. I did not address all 60-something comments. My response only addressed those who I felt did not use the comments section respectfully. People are welcome to dissent, and Lord knows y'all love doing that. I just request that people do it as respectfully as you just did.\nSoupy said...\nI love how the commenters have blamed their reactions on Sarah for what she does/doesn't show them.\nYo, folks, where do you get off? Sarah can write what the hell she likes, from whatever angle she likes. She owes you NOTHING. Get off your high horses. Stop talking like the depths of her soul belong to you. How bloody dare you.\nBe grateful you get any of it at all. Your perspective doesn't matter. None of you actually matter. This is Sarah's blog. It's about her, not about you.\nDaisy - She wasn't saying that she wouldn't listen to a friend telling her something she didn't agree with... She was saying - if you can't be nice, then don't say anything at all.\nReaders are very much entitled to share their opinions, whether it's positive or negative... It just needs to be shared respectfully.\nIf I were to sit down at lunch with a friend and share something with her (out of concern) that she may not want to hear - I'd do it carefully. I wouldn't just sit down and say, \"Hey sista - it sounds to me like you're lying a whole lot!\".\nI'd probably take an approach more along the lines of, \"I know that new relationships are really exciting and I, for one, tend to look at things with rose colored glasses for the first while. Do you think you have a bit of that going on?\"\nNot that I think that's what Sarah's doing at all... Just an example of how to be polite, even if it's a contrary opinion that you're sharing.\nSarah.... As for you? Just keep on keepin' on. Everyone's different so there will always be different opinions, perceptions, beliefs, etc. As long as YOU are comfortable with the choices you make then that's fantastic!\nDoes that mean you'll never get hurt? Nope. Does that mean you won't misjudge people and date more jack-holes than you'd like? Nope. But it DOES mean that you can always stand proud because you are comfortable with the choices you've made and the way you've treated yourself.\nPeople make mistakes. I make a bazillion of them probably on an hourly basis... But that's how we learn. I'm proud that I treat people well. I'm proud that I've taken the high road in many situations, even when those closest to me thought I was \"getting walked all over\". The choices I made that I was comfortable with have paid off for me... In the (very) long run, of course. The choices I made that I wasn't comfortable with and made because I was doubting myself and listening to others around me - well... some of those have been BIG mistakes and hindered things more than they helped.\nI'm open to hearing what people have to say, and more often than not I'm enlightened with things that I \"didn't see that way\". It's nice. But, when it comes down to it, I'm the one who has to live with me forever. So, I'm going to do what I'll feel good about. (Which might be different now than what I feel good about in a few months... But - you live and learn.)\nI guess I'm trying to say - Try not to take the comments to much to heart. Some of them may make you look at something in a different way... But some may be way off base.\nWe're just getting a small glimpse into the parts of your life that you're willing to share. We don't know the whole story so we can't possibly judge too harshly based on that. We CAN, however, remember our manners.\nI was the commenter who was off on the amount of time they've spent together, but I've been dealing with my own stuff - and my own PMS - and I didn't like the inferences that she was lying, or that I was stupid for standing up for her.\nI feel weird commenting again, but I can see where your concern is valid. It's just that I also know that I don't know her well enough to tell her she should be doing this or that, and that goes for most of us. As of right now, he sounds as though he's head and shoulders (and then some) over the drama kings and queens who were in her life last Spring and Summer.\nAfter reading the post in question and most of the comments that haven't been deleted I find that \"kid gloves\" was a well-chosen title but not necessarily for the purpose the author originally intended. Apparently the whole thing ended up being all about manners and treading lightly.\nOn the upside, it looks like the anonymous comments not only hit a chord with Sarah and her approved list of dining companions but they also managed to uncover the core issue that many of us ill-mannered-but-perhaps-wiser audience detected: fantasy vs. reality.\nAs a part-time server at the outdoor cafe where you and your cyber friends meet regularly, I wouldn't necessarily refer to the snippets of conversation I hear in passing and the snapshots of your feelings I casually catch as 'vulnerabilities' but rather label them as plain, old ambivalence, as in \"I know I shouldn't feel this way but I can't help feeling this way\" continuous conundrum.\nAm I qualified or informed enough to judge content you ask? No. Not when you do admit to 'withholding' certain details and nuances that would definitely paint a more realistic picture, thus allowing both the couth and uncouth to draw far more educated conclusions.\nIndeed, many of the points you make are quite valid and without question, you do have the prerogative to validate any of them as such but the bottom line is that you're either open to criticism or you're not so it's not about what one would or wouldn't dare say if seated directly across from you. It's about what you can and still cannot admit to yourself (not here, but in the privacy of your own head).\nAs they say, opinions are like noses in that everyone's got one. Among them, there are ugly and pretty ones and others are bumpy but mostly we don't even notice them; no matter, they're still part of the face staring at you...\nThat's why 'outside of work', I tend to select my friends based on their ability to take it as well as they dish it, which is why I won't be doing lunch with you, and not just because of the carrots in your salad. The truth is that I've followed your blog long enough to determine that even though you've been known to consume a lot of 'pickles', you continue to pile 'em on your plate, which invariably results in a serious case of heartburn, immediately followed by puking.\nAs someone's mother, I'm compelled to hold your forehead and offer you a cool rag, if you want it, but the truth is that I don't have the heart to watch you vomit any more than I relish reading stories about somebody taking a shit in your car or on your otherwise successful, engaged life, just as I wouldn't sit in silence while my own daughter 'dines al fresco'.\nAnd in as much as I understand that 'this is your life' and not some made-for-t.v.-show, the assumption is that your own anonymity herein does afford you the liberty to be completely candid, unless of course, your ultimate goal is not to get and apply the honest and impartial feedback but rather turn your blog into a best-seller, in which case it would amount to something akin to \"A Million Little Pieces\" - a semi-fictional memoir that was 'outed' due to the sheer amount of inconsistencies and facts that didn't hold up to public scrutiny, despite being endorsed by Oprah herself!\nAm I out of line in expressing my unabashed and unsolicited opinion? No. By granting public access to your blog you did invite the feedback and you got it. True, some of those comments weren't as nice as you expected them to be, but then again, neither were the pickles you've picked without anybody's input. Why? Well, maybe because you're not ready to take the constructive advice unless it's tied with pretty little bows, in which case, I wish you the best of luck getting published!\nI agree, it's not what you say, but how you say it. If you put your feelings out there on a blog for all to read, you have to be able to take the little bit of bad with the mostly good comments. I feel like the major majority is cheering for you because the voice that comes through your writing is so captivating, everyone feels like they truly know you (I sure feel like I do, I get defensive over your right to happiness, it's a huge compliment that so many people care!).\nI love this blog. I am routing for you, Sarah. You deserve to be happy and you have dated enough icky boys for a lifetime, you have earned the right to date a winner.\nI will say this and I do not mean any ill will with the following, it's simply an observation I have made here (some others have mentioned it) and I am guilty of it in my own life, too. You do seem like a people pleaser, like it bothers you to not make others happy and that you put others before you. From recent posts, I can see that you are making a conscious effort to not do this anymore, I applaud you, it's a tough habit to break.\nAbraham sounds like a good guy in many ways, but I can't shake the feeling that you post about him to either find validation that he is indeed a good guy, or to boast that a guy who has it pretty together has strong feelings for you. You deserve someone like this or even better, so I don't question that he feels nice to be around. He should be honored to be in your company because you are awesome, he is not the prize, you are.\nWhen people are telling you that based on his inability to define the relationship, you may have grounds to worry, I do have to agree. Not because of what you may or may not have presented to your readers (no one knows what happens between the two of you, but the two of you, and you have a right to your privacy), but because on a base level, a guy that really cares won't make you feel insecure or uninvited or left out. The right guy for you will make you feel emotionally whole and safe. I want you to feel the way you deserve to feel, don't be afraid to continue to ask for what you need, don't please Abe with a relationship on his terms because of your own desire to please. I have stayed in 2 long-term relationships that didn't end up as I believed they could because I was afraid to ask for what I needed, not because the guys were lost losers, they were pretty awesome, just unable to commit. I got stuck between being cool and being afraid of hearing something that I didn't want to hear and I wasted my own time. If you are not getting what makes you feel awesome, perhaps let him go, and find someone who can give you want you need. There is no reason why you should settle, you have too much going for you.\nWow - I didn't think this post would elicit such a response! You know, I read your blog because I think you're a little like me - I think we'd get on in real life. I like the fact that I can relate to the posts that you write. I don't read because I want to know every detail about you - if we were \"real life\" friends - things would be different. And even that only after a fair few years of friendship. I started reading your blog in December 2010 and I read every single post from the beginning. I've read the shit you have gone through. I definitely cried with you and I have laughed with you (albeit probably 2 years too late in some instances!) so for now I am just going to enjoy this moment with you. You have \"real life\" friends who probably know the good and bad. Those \"blogger friends\" who know you much better than others. What everyone has said here - don't pay too much attention to it. You shouldn't write for us. You should write for you. Because writing cleanses the soul. Don't let us burden you. :)\nOh my word. Of all the posts of all the blog, and they had to break into this one.... Nutters! Sarah: hope you're ok honey XX\nPs if we're at lunch, then, mine's a beer, cheers xx\nHi Sarah, I've been reading your blog for years and I think I've commented once or twice. I just wanted to tell you that I love your writing style, I love that it feels as though I'm reading a book/story and I always look forward to your next post. I hope you still continue to blog as you do!\nWhen you acknowledge what it is that you're feeling it can often take the air out of it and make it seem smaller.",

        "title": "'Spectre' retreads old Bond films, predictable plot fizzles out | The Daily Texan",
        "raw_content": "'Spectre' retreads old Bond films, predictable plot fizzles out\nPhoto Credit: Courtesy of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer\nPublished on November 6, 2015 at 12:35 am Last update on November 6, 2015 at 6:30 pm\nDaniel Craig\u2019s James Bond has always been less refined and more grounded than his predecessors. Ever since 2006\u2019s \u201cCasino Royale,\u201d Bond studio Eon Productions has offered a refreshingly modern take on the British super spy. With \u201cSpectre,\u201d the studio attempts to return the series to its over-the-top action, cat-loving supervillain, high-tech gadget, sex-obsessed roots. And it misses the mark.\nDirected by \u201cSkyfall\u201d\u2019s Sam Mendes, it lifts classic Bond elements from previous films, yet never makes a statement of its own. That\u2019s a shame, because \u201cSkyfall\u201d concluded promising a reinvigoration of the series. \u201cSpectre\u201d is a direct sequel to that movie and pits Bond against his greatest enemy yet: Franz Oberhauser (Christoph Waltz), the mysterious head of an organization called Spectre.\nBond dispatches one of Spectre\u2019s top assassins in a phenomenal opening action sequence that takes place during the Day of the Dead in Mexico. It begins with a long tracking shot before giving way to a frantic chase through a costumed parade and climaxes with a battle aboard a helicopter that Bond flips not once, not twice but three times. The stunt is real and it\u2019s thrillingly executed.\n\u201cSpectre\u201d never again matches the opening scene\u2019s momentum as Bond continues his investigation against the new M\u2019s (Ralph Fiennes) orders. Armed with new toys from Q (Ben Whishaw), Bond travels to Rome, Austria and Tunisia in search of Oberhauser. Along the way, he enlists the help of Madeleine Swann (Lea Seydoux), the daughter of his old nemesis Mr. White (Jesper Christensen).\nMeanwhile, M is embroiled in a political struggle against C (Andrew Scott), a government official who wants to create a global intelligence network and close down the 00-section. C seems like a naive upstart, but there\u2019s more to his machinations than meets the eye.\n\u201cSpectre\u201d promises an explosive and dramatic journey, but only makes good the explosive part. While fun and mildly engaging, most of the action scenes are unremarkable, lacking the ferocity of the brawls in \u201cCasino Royale\u201d and the stylish urgency of the set pieces in \u201cSkyfall.\u201d A car chase between Bond and Spectre henchman Mr. Hinx (Dave Bautista) amounts to nothing more than one sports car chasing another in a straight line through empty streets. Later, Bond escapes the bad guy\u2019s base so easily that it seems the filmmakers got lazy and just wanted to end production.\nCraig is more chipper as Bond now. He\u2019s funny and suave, recalling the glory days of Sean Connery and Roger Moore. Unfortunately, he\u2019s tied down by convention in \u201cSpectre\u201d after leading the series in a fantastic new direction.\nThe script isn\u2019t as smart as it should be, even though it\u2019s written by Neal Purvis, Robert Wade, John Logan and Jez Butterworth. It includes all the Bond tropes without creating something imaginative or exciting out of them. The dialogue is serviceable. It isn\u2019t clever and is sometimes cheesy, and the missed opportunities are infuriating. In one scene, M says, \u201cNow we know what C really stands for.\u201d The audience at my showing laughed uproariously at this ingenious line. Until it was squandered when M qualifies it with: \u201cCareless.\u201d The audience replied with a groan.\nOberhauser is one of the movie\u2019s strongest parts, as well as one of its weakest. He poses an indomitable threat to Bond and Christoph Waltz\u2019s affably evil take on the character simultaneously excites and frightens. But Oberhauser\u2019s motivations are murky, his connection to Bond is contrived, and his actual identity is incredibly obvious.\nMendes and the writers try to connect \u201cSpectre\u201d to Craig\u2019s previous outings, but as they were never created with the Spectre organization in mind, it comes across as a shoddy attempt at universe building and the filmmakers never properly explain how Quantum and Silva tie into Oberhauser\u2019s grand plan.\n\u201cSpectre\u201d doesn\u2019t come close to matching the bar set by \u201cSkyfall.\u201d It\u2019s a misjudged return to formula for a character that had just been reinvented, and while it isn\u2019t terrible, it doesn\u2019t impress either. Bond has saved the world 24 times \u2014 the filmmakers will have to do a lot more than rehash his old adventures to propel the series forward.",

        "raw_content": "Study finds that people with low incomes and precarious housing less likely to get screened for cancer\nAdults living with low incomes are less likely to be screened for colorectal, cervical and breast cancer, says researchers from the Department of Family and Community Medicine (DFCM) in a study. It used social determinants of health to examine cancer screening disparities among patients of the St. Michael\u2019s Hospital Academic Family Health Team.\nLead investigators Drs. Aisha Lofters and Tara Kiran, Assistant Professors at DFCM and family physicians at St. Michael\u2019s Hospital, also found that housing status \u2013 whether the patient owns, rents or lives in a special housing arrangement\u2013 is linked with a patient\u2019s likelihood to get screened for cancer.\n\u201cOur goal was to figure out if there are particular groups of patients where we could do a better job ensuring they are receiving regular screenings for cancer,\u201d says Dr. Lofters, a researcher and physician at St. Michael\u2019s Hospital.\n\u201cThe point of screening is to catch cancer at an early stage or, even better, catch an abnormality before it turns into cancer so doctors can focus on treatment and prevention before it spreads.\u201d\nTo conduct the study, researchers used a survey given to patients who are eligible for cancer screening that asks for socio-economic data like race, income, country of birth and other social determinants of health. Researchers then used patient\u2019s electronic medical records to compare the sociodemographic information of patients who were overdue for cancer screening versus those who were up-to-date.\n\u201cThe most striking differences in screening rates are between low and high-income patients and those who own their home or have other living arrangements,\u201d says Dr. Lofters.\nPatients in the low-income bracket \u2013 as defined by Statistics Canada \u2013 were at the highest risk of falling behind with cancer screening for all three types of cancers versus those with higher incomes, says Dr. Lofters.\nPatients who owned their homes had the best screening rates, followed by patients who rent. Those who lived in more precarious housing situations, such as subsidized housing, shelters, hostels, or undetermined, were far less likely to receive cancer screening than those with more permanent housing situations.. Those who lived in more precarious housing situations, such as subsidized housing, shelters, hostels, or undetermined, were far less likely to receive cancer screening than those with more permanent housing situations.\n\u201cWe aren\u2019t sure why housing status plays such a large role in cancer screening rates,\u201d says Dr. Lofters. \u201cWe think that it might be a reflection of wealth - similar to income \u2013 or it could be how stable your life is. If you\u2019re going from home-to-home, getting a cancer screening may not be a high priority for you at that time. You also don\u2019t have a long-term address to receive reminders and notifications that you may be due for a screening test.\u201d\nDr. Lofters points out that the patients included in this study are part of St. Michael\u2019s Hospital Academic Family Health Team and have family doctors, so it\u2019s likely that the rates for screening are much lower for those without a family doctor.\nOne option to improve screening rates is home screening tests, such as cervical self-sampling tests, that patients mail to labs independently. While Dr. Lofters admits that it will not address all the barriers to pap tests and the research is far from complete on these options, she hopes it\u2019s an alternative that one day may be made available.\n\u201cAs a province, we\u2019re not meeting the targets that Cancer Care Ontario set out for screening,\u201d says Dr. Lofters. \u201cSo there\u2019s definitely room for improvement and we\u2019re always looking for innovations.\u201d\nSign-up for our newsletters.",

        "raw_content": "Title: Galois representations, embedding problems and modular forms\nAuthor: Crespo Vicente, Teresa\nKeywords: Teoria de Galois\nAbstract: To an odd irreducible 2-dimensional complex linear representation of the absolute Galois group of the field Q of rational numbers, a modular form of weight 1 is associated (modulo Artin's conjecture on the L-series of the representation in the icosahedral case). In addition, linear liftings of 2-dimensional projective Galois representations are related to solutions of certain Galois embedding problems. In this paper we present some recent results on the existence of liftings of projective representations and on the explicit resolution of embedding problems associated to orthogonal Galois representations, and explain how these results can be used to construct modular forms.\nNote: Reproducci\u00f3 del document publicat a: http://www.collectanea.ub.edu/index.php/Collectanea/article/view/3860/4608\nIt is part of: Collectanea Mathematica, 1997, vol. 48, n\u00fam. 1-2, p. 63-83",

        "raw_content": "They say the way to a man\u2019s heart is through his stomach, and the way to win a girl over is with diamonds, flowers, and a little romance. I have known a lot of men who equate this to also mean, if you want to get into a woman\u2019s pants, buy her something!\nCue the exaggerated eyeroll \u2026 and appropriate response of \u2018Puhleezzze!\u2019\nSo \u2013 forget all that. And I know I\u2019m harking back a bit to the Languages of Love concept, but hey it\u2019s worth repeating. If your partner\u2019s primary language of love is gifts, then maybe you should stop reading here \u2013 because this may not apply to you. But for everyone else, lean in, and listen up. The real way to get your love\u2019s hands on attention is to invest in some basic down-home thoughtfulness.\nPersonally, I have always disliked flowers \u2013 they die. For me, yes I like the thoughtfulness behind the gesture, but flowers in the house remind me of funerals, and as a young widow once, this is not going to have me melting into your arms anytime soon. Not even a dozen red roses on Valentines day \u2013 I\u2019d rather you cook me a lovely meal. You see \u2013 my love language is acts of service. The thoughtfulness of your actions are likely to speak volumes, and get straight to your love\u2019s tender heart over a range of things. But \u2013 if Flowers are your partner\u2019s thing, then the very act of stopping to buy them, (or pick them) is maybe one of the sweetest things you can do.\nIt\u2019s about investing in your relationship. Getting to know what will make your partner think you\u2019ve put some serious thought into what he or she is going to appreciate. Not because it\u2019s their birthday, or anniversary. I know many people who insist on only a card, ever, because they can keep them in a special box and take them out and read them over the years. I know when I\u2019m one day going to have to pack up and move into a tiny retirement home or hospital ward, that\u2019s something I\u2019d like to have with me. Not the dead flowers.\nWhat ever makes your lover smile, swoon with pleasure, want to make love with you and give generously of him or herself, do that! take time to figure out what that is, and do more of it. Invest in your relationship \u2013 you\u2019ll be amazed at how well that investment can pay back.\nWhy not explore more about what really makes your partner feel loved, appreciated and yes, even apologized to. This might make all your forward journeys together a lot easier to navigate!",

        "raw_content": "An analyser and generator for Irish inflectional morphology using finite-state transducers\nU\u00ed Dhonnchadha, Elaine (2002) An analyser and generator for Irish inflectional morphology using finite-state transducers. Master of Science thesis, Dublin City University.\nComputational morphology is an important step in natural language processing. Finite-state techniques have been applied successfully in computational phonology and morphology to many of the world\u2019s major languages. Celtic languages, such as Modern Irish, present unique and challenging morphological features that to date have not been addressed using finite-state technology. This thesis presents a finite-state morphology of Irish developed using Xerox Finite-State Tools. To the best of our knowledge, such a resource does not exist. The computational model, implemented as a finite-state transducer, encodes the inflectional morphology of nouns, adjectives, and verbs. Other parts of speech are also included in the interests of language coverage. The implementation is a strictly lexicalised design: the morphotactics of stems and affixes are encoded in the lexicon using replace rule triggers. Word mutations are then implemented as a series of replace rules written as regular expressions. Both components are compiled into finite state transducers and then combined, to produce a single two-level morphological transducer for the language. A major advantage of finite-state implementations of morphology is their inherent bi-directionality; the same system is used for both analysis and generation of word forms in the language. This resource can be used as a component part in parsing and generation in natural language processing (NLP) applications, such as spelling checkers/correctors, stemmers and text to speech synthesisers. It can also be used for tokenising text, lemmatising, and as an input to automatic partof- speech tagging of a corpus. The system is designed for broad coverage of the language and this is evaluated by comparing it with a list of the 1000 most frequently found word forms in a corpus of contemporary Irish texts. Finally, maintainability of the system is discussed and possible extensions to the system are suggested, such as derivational morphology and the inclusion of dialectal or historical word-forms.\nvan Genabith, Josef and Nic Ph\u00e1id\u00edn, Caoilfhionn\nInflection; Morphology; Natural language processing",

        "title": "Reading books in front of kids is not enough. | Open Educational Thinkering",
        "raw_content": "Reading books in front of kids is not enough.\nTL;DR version: Patrick Rhone wrote a post recently about the importance of his children seeing people reading physical books. While I agree with the sentiment, it\u2019s not enough in and of itself. They need to see us reading screens as well. Most importantly we need to have conversations with our kids about everything we\u2019re reading.\nLast month a post by Patrick Rhone was +1\u2019d into my Google+ stream. Entitled A Time For Books it was, like most of Rhone\u2019s posts, a thoughtful and heartfelt look at something important to him. While I have no beef with his general thinking here, I just think what he says doesn\u2019t go far enough:\nI\u2019ve decided that I want to start being very conscious of making sure to read real books as much as possible around her [his daughter]. That she not only see them closed and on shelves but also open and on tables and desks and their places being kept over the arm of a chair. I want to ensure that we have family reading time as much as possible and while one of us is reading a book to her the other is enjoying a physical book of their own.\nThe idea of a \u2018family reading time\u2019 is great and should definitely be encouraged. My wife and I have, on occasion, done something similar with our son. However, what I find problematic in Rhone\u2019s piece is his privileging physical books over things that are read on a screen:\nI mean, we could be doing anything on the screen. And she knows it. She knows the Internet is sometimes on that screen. She knows that movies are sometimes on that screen. She knows that games and music are on that screen.\nAnd, while she does know we can read books on that screen, even books for her, how is she to know the difference? How is she to pick up the physical cues that Mommy and Daddy read a lot of books? That this is what people should do. That it is something we believe passionately in. That it matters. That we believe she should read a lot of books too. Even when she is as old as we are.\nLet me tell you how Rhone Junior can find out about what Daddy reads. By engaging her in conversation. Books are social objects.\nI read a lot of books, but fully 75% of what I read is on some kind of screen \u2013 a Kindle, my Nexus 7, my MacBook Pro, or one of the plethora of devices we have lying around. It would be impossible for me to replace what I read on screens with physical books.\nInstead of a futile attempt to turn the clock back, I suggest that parents looking to model appropriate behaviours enter into conversations with their kids about what they\u2019re reading and thinking. I find one of the best places to do this with my son is in the car on the way to some activity like swimming or football. I\u2019ll ask what he\u2019s enjoyed reading and let him know what I\u2019ve found interesting recently. Even better than that is sharing something you\u2019re reading at the time you read it, of course. But that\u2019s not always possible.\nTangentially related to this, I feel, is learning how to work in a distributed way. And, let\u2019s face it, that\u2019s almost definitely how my son\u2019s generation will be working. In my work for Mozilla it\u2019s imperative that I make my thinking as tangible and visible as possible \u2013 either through conversations, blog posts like this one, or physical/digital artefacts. This allows my colleagues to riff off what I\u2019m doing and I can do likewise.\nImage CC BY Wiertz S\u00e9bastien\nExperimenting with a Slack-based book club\nPostedFebruary 12, 2013 \u2014 6:43 pm\nTagsbooks, reading, screens\nNext On \u2018rigour\u2019 in definitions of digital and web literacy.\nPrevious Thinking through helping my kids learn Web concepts.\nAgree entirely \u2013 we need to communicate the importance of reading, as well as being seen doing it. And the format isn\u2019t important \u2013 it\u2019s the written (or typed) word that\u2019s valuable, not fact that\u2019s its printed on a bit of old tree. And while we\u2019re at it, we should also stop having to hear about reading for \u2018pleasure\u2019, as if its distinct from reading for learning.\nMy older son (9) sits with rapt attention watching me on twitter, it\u2019s a good way for him to get into my world because things are short enough for him to read, and there are often pictures and links and it changes constantly. But it\u2019s still reading, and a great way of sharing with him the things I find interesting.\n\u201cconversations about everything\u2026\u201d give the kid a break: time to themselves, time to be bored etc (sorry too much TV-cos-its-cold-outside)\nThere\u2019s nothing like curling up with a good book. The feel of paper in your palm and the joy of learning new words. You get transported to a new world without leaving your armchair. Plus the paper doesn\u2019t reflect the sunlight in your eyes. I once had a favourite book land up in the swimming pool. I still read it months later, in its warped form. You can\u2019t do that with a tablet. At least not the one that I have. Kudos to your Doug for bringing up the subject. Kids don\u2019t read enough these days. It\u2019s time to re-introduce the Book. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xFAWR6hzZek\nFrankie, I\u2019m actually arguing the exact opposite of that position? What I\u2019m trying to say is that much as I enjoy physical books, it\u2019s important to have conversations with children about reading both in physical books and on screens. \ud83d\ude42\nLeave a Reply to Chris B Cancel reply",

        "raw_content": "Twitter misses Q4 revenue targets amid advertising revenue slump\nThe company's revenue shortfall came even though its cost of revenue - the amount it must spend for hosting the service and sharing revenue with partners, among other things - rose by 40.4 percent to $306 million from a year earlier.\nWall Street analysts were disappointed with the results. At the time, Dorsey said that Twitter was cutting its workforce as part of the firm's goal to become profitable in 2017 and simplify how it operates.\nDorsey said that the company is taking the same approach it took to the user side, namely to \"reset and focus on our strengths [by] clearly differentiating and complementing Twitter's real-time nature\", in order to show advertisers that Twitter works. Total MAUs for Q4 grew by just 2 million between last quarter and this quarter to 319 million. Data licensing and other revenue totaled $79 million - an increase of 14%, year-over-year. Its revenue from the United States was down five percent at $440 million. Global revenue totaled $277 million, which represented an increase of 12% year-over-year.\nTotal ad engagements surged 151% from previous year, but cost per engagement (CPE) was down 60%. The social media company expects between $75 million and $95 million in adjusted earnings this quarter before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization.\n\"Revenue growth will continue to lag audience growth due to the sales cycle\". Advertising revenue growth may be further impacted by escalating competition for digital ad spending and Twitter's re-evaluation of its revenue product feature portfolio, which could result in the de-emphasis of certain product features.\n\"We really need to improve our targeting capabilities, improve our measurement capabilities and improve our creative capabilities to get some of our DR products to continue to scale the way our successful ones have\", Noto said.\nCompany watchers are not holding their breath.\nTwitter's stock took another big hit on Thursday, but its CEO Jack Dorsey doesn't plan to stop juggling two jobs anytime soon.\n\"Trump is very polarizing and I think a lot of times people might see something he tweeted on the news networks\", eMarketer analyst Debra Aho Williamson said in an interview. Its outlook did not call for revenue growth.\nWhile it may be the mouthpiece of U.S. president Donald Trump, the Q4 earnings for Twitter have revealed it is still not very profitable.\nFacebook's stats, published at the start of February, said it had 1.86 billion people using its website across December - a 17 per cent year-on-year growth - and 1.74 billion people using Facebook on mobile in the final month.\nSolar industry jobs surged in 2016\nOpen Skies Sides Square Off As Trump Meets Airline CEOs\nSarfraz new ODI captain, as Azhar Ali steps down\nCognizant Technology Solutions Corporation's (CTSH) \"Outperform\" Rating Reaffirmed at Wedbush\nIS militants kill six Red Cross workers in Afghanistan\nCorbyn replaces Lewis in shadow cabinet reshuffle\nDemonstrators arrested during protest over a woman's deportation\nCourt blocks bid to close world's largest refugee camp",

        "raw_content": "From the general education credits, I have learned how ancient civilizations relate to today\u2019s society, my life has been enriched through science and language courses, and my writing skills and general health have improved. The ICD core classes have opened my eyes to resources to which I still make reference or run to for information. All these classes have added to the knowledge source which I will be able to draw on for the rest of my life.\nMy reason for choosing ICD as my major came midway through my freshman year after I realized that practical ministry and journalism\u2013a great joy for me\u2013can work hand in hand. Once, someone, I don\u2019t remember who, told me that in journalism it is better to have a large knowledge-base and be able to relate to and understand people than to just know how to interview and write. ICD fits that knowledge base well. Although my goal is not to become just a photojournalist but to use photojournalism to spread the Gospel. My studies as an ICD major have helped me in this search for solid knowledge about a variety of areas. During the summers and Christmas breaks, I have been able to practice and improve my journalistic skills and photography through an ongoing internship at the Fort Scott Tribune, a newspaper near my home.\nAlthough I was not sure what other area to pursue for my emphasis, at first, through the influence of life experiences and advice from Dr. Linda Gray of the Oral Roberts University English Department, I chose to include English as a Second Language (ESL) in my studies. This has turned out to be a challenge but also a great addition to my college career. I had limited experiences with ESL prior to coming to ORU having spent two months teaching English in Chile, South America. With this experience and a knowledge ofthe usefulness of ESL as a means to spread the Gospel, I have immensely enjoyed the classes. Not only have I learned practical methods and theories about language learning but I\u2019ve been able to put those things into practice through an ESL program at my church and use the very language techniques I am learning in my own language studies.\nDespite my enjoyment of both areas that I have chosen for my emphasis, I have wondered how they fit together. I think the key is the idea of community development and timing. Although I have a knowledge base in a variety of areas, I foresee that I will either be using ESL and journalism at different times in my life or keeping one as my main emphasis and the other as a secondary occupation. For example, I may take a job as a photojournalist and help with an ESL program or work with a Christian organization in their media departments or another combination of these areas.\nWhen it really comes down to it, I am not sure how they will mesh together but they are both areas that I have already used parts of the knowledge I have gained to help other people.\nAs I take one thing or another and see how God directs my me, I know that in retrospect, I\u2019ll be able to see the path that, right now, I\u2019ve only been able to see one step at a time.\nA paper I wrote as I was completing my senior paper while a senior at Oral Roberts University in 1999.\nThis entry was posted in missions and tagged community development, education, training by michaels.

        "raw_content": "Stars: Jean-Pierre L\u00e9aud, Claire Maurier, Albert R\u00e9my, Guy Decomble, Patrick Affay, Georges Flamant\nAudio: LPCM Mono\n\"Even today when I hear an adult reminiscing regretfully about his childhood, I tend to think that he has a very poor memory.\" - Fran\u00e7ois Truffaut\nFran\u00e7ois Truffaut was born on February 6, 1932 in Paris, France. The product of a broken home, the young Truffaut never knew his real father and did not have a particularly good relationship with his step-father, either. Not surprisingly, his childhood years were a troubled and unhappy time for him. Even later in adolescence, when Truffaut enlisted in the French army, he repetitively went AWOL. The military inevitably caught up with him, and Truffaut subsequently spent a great deal of time in military prison. The story might well have ended in this forgettable manner for the troublesome teen. But, in this darkest chapter of Truffaut's youth, a savior appeared who would alter the course of Truffaut's life and guide him towards a brighter destiny. That savior was Andr\u00e9 Bazin, and the whole cinematic world owes him an eternal debt of gratitude.\nAndr\u00e9 Bazin, during the 1950's, was the finest film critic of the day and perhaps the best ever produced in Europe. His articles were very sophisticated and wise far beyond his years. It was once remarked of his reviews, \"he writes like he's in his nineties,\" truly remarkable praise for a man only in his thirties. Bazin was also a charitable humanitarian and assisted many throughout his life. In Truffaut, he somehow perceived the potential for something better than the young delinquent's current lot in life. Through Bazin's efforts, Truffaut was liberated early from his prison sentence, a benevolent deed which Truffaut never forgot. While Fran\u00e7ois Truffaut was merely one of many people whom Bazin helped, he was perhaps the one most ultimately influenced by Bazin's guidance.\nTruffaut gradually came to regard Bazin not only as a mentor but almost as the father he never had. Encouraged by the film critic, Truffaut in the early 1950's began to develop his long-time interest in cinema. Truffaut eventually became a film critic himself, working for Bazin's own review journal, Cahiers du Cin\u00e9ma. As a critic, Truffaut was known for being direct and sharp-tongued. In his reviews, he would express great admiration for the works of Jean Renoir and Alfred Hitchcock while displaying his increasing distress over the current state of the French film industry. In 1954, Truffaut wrote a famous article for Cahiers du Cin\u00e9ma; that article, Une Certaine Tendance du Cin\u00e9ma Fran\u00e7ais (A Certain Tendency in French Cinema), lamented the direction of French cinema and made a plea for a more earnest and personal vision in films. In a sense, it marked the initial conception of the New Wave, a film movement whose bold and expressive language would take the cinematic world by storm only a few years later.\nTruffaut's article also expounded upon an idea first developed by Bazin, la politique des auteurs (the policies of authors). Truffaut felt that films at the time were dominated too much by their writers, and that a film's aesthetic value was often erroneously judged by the extrinsic importance of its Big Theme (social consciousness, racial injustice, human plight, etc.) rather than its expression or cinematic imagination. For the auteur theorists, the true merit of a film was not in its theme or subject matter but rather in the film's treatment of that subject matter. This auteur theory, very simply put, submitted that the director was the predominant creative force behind his film and that the writer's contribution was essentially neutral. The director, through his mise-en-sc\u00e8ne, editing, and construction of the film, determined the artistic worth of his film.\nWith this mindset, it was not long before Truffaut decided to put his beloved theories into action and to try his own hand at filmmaking. His initial directorial efforts in the mid-1950's were one-two reelers, interesting if not especially lengthy. But for the next several years, Truffaut would carefully learn the craft of moviemaking, further honing his skills by assisting the Italian neo-realist director Roberto Rossellini. Truffaut anticipated the day when he would be able to unveil the personal form of cinema for which he had long implored.\nIn 1959, at long last, that day arrived. On a barely-existent budget of $50,000, Truffaut completed and released his first feature-length film - Les Quatre Cents Coups (The 400 Blows).\nIn its initial release, The 400 Blows completely galvanized French cinema. In fact, from its realistic portrayal of adolescents, unparalleled in earlier films (or rarely since!), to its shockingly abrupt closing shot, The 400 Blows was so influential that it ushered in a bold and new phase in cinema, the French New Wave movement. The film's unusual title was a reference to a French colloquial expression whose essence, roughly translated, meant to raise hell, which was of course what the film's central character did quite often. On an interesting note, Truffaut's original title for the film had been Antoine's Fugue, but the eventual title more imaginatively captured the free, new spirit of the film.\nFor the film's central protagonist, Truffaut created the memorable character of Antoine Doinel. Antoine was a hell-raiser, and many of his misadventures in The 400 Blows were drawn from similar, painful events in Truffaut's own childhood. Truffaut's truancies, his uncomfortable home environment, his detainment at an obedience center for minors - these experiences and others were reprised in the film. Even a scene in which Antoine glimpses his mother's clandestine lover recalled a similar event from Truffaut's youth. Thus, Truffaut understandably wanted the right actor to portray Antoine, as Antoine Doinel was really Fran\u00e7ois Truffaut himself.\nOne of several scores of children who auditioned for the role of Antoine Doinel was young Jean-Pierre L\u00e9aud, himself the product of an acting family. L\u00e9aud had in fact run off from school specifically to audition for the role. Perhaps Truffaut saw something of Antoine Doinel's rebellious nature and disregard for authority in L\u00e9aud, for Truffaut eventually rewarded the role of Antoine to the young child actor. L\u00e9aud would in fact portray Antoine Doinel in all the subsequent films chronicling the character's life.\nFor its time, the semi-autobiographical approach of The 400 Blows was quite revolutionary and offered a degree of frankness not previously seen before in movies. This honesty, in addition to the film's lack of sentimentality, melodrama, or pretentiousness, was at the very heart of Truffaut's ideal of the personal cinema. It was for this reason that The 400 Blows was so well received in 1959 and why even today, the film continues to be widely admired.\nThe 400 Blows begins with a brief travelogue of the city of Paris under the opening titles. There is a fresh, unpolished appearance to this documentary-style footage, which already signals that this film will be different. After the credits, the film focuses upon a typical day at l'\u00e9cole secondaire. The children are bored and fidget in their seats while their teacher rambles on. They make gestures behind his back as he scribbles bland nonsense on the blackboard. They pass pictures amongst themselves while his eyes are averted elsewhere. Today, however, one of the students is caught red-handed. That unlucky boy is Antoine Doinel, the film's central character. For him, this will be but the first in a long line of indignations.\nAntoine is chastised by the teacher in front of the entire class. He is made to stand in the corner and consequently misses recess play. Bored, Antoine writes on the wall. The teacher, discovering his handiwork, chastises him again once class resumes and assigns him extra homework.\nConditions in Antoine's home are not significantly better. His young mother cares more for her appearance than for him, while his stepfather works at the races and is only interested in cars. They do offer Antoine some parental support, but, for the most part, he is essentially free to do as he pleases. So, when Antoine forgets to do his extra homework, he does what any kid might like to do in his situation - he skips school the next day and goes to watch movies and visit the fairgrounds instead. Questioned afterwards by a teacher about his excuse for being absent, he replies, \"My mother is dead.\" His spontaneous, obvious fib is discovered soon enough, and once again Antoine finds himself being punished in front of his classmates, with more promised by his furious step-father once he returns home.\nThese early glances into a few days of Antoine's life already demonstrate his penchant for trouble. Nonetheless, Antoine's greatest flaw is not that he is a delinquent. In truth, Antoine is not very much different from his classmates, and he even has several redeeming qualities. For instance, he is an avid reader and a dutiful son at home, cleaning up and doing the chores. No, Antoine's main failure is his inability to exhibit good judgment or to foresee the consequences for his actions, especially as far as the authority figures in his life are concerned. The same thing may well be said for any child, but as fate would have it, Antoine has been specifically singled out by his teacher and labeled as a troublemaker. Thereafter, Antoine is under constant scrutiny, and he can do no right.\nEven when his efforts are earnest, his rewards are meager. For a school essay, Antoine quotes from his current favorite author Balzac. He is consequently accused of outright plagiarism by his teacher. He receives an F. Antoine's situation is one that probably many students have felt at one point or another, a sense of \"Why me? What did I do?\" Antoine is almost resigned to these daily reprimands, and his judgment falters for it. Fearful of his parents' wrath, he shuns them, taking to the nocturnal streets of Paris and even stealing a typewriter from his father's workplace at one point to pawn for money. When his conscience gets the better of him, Antoine decides to return it, but in doing so, is caught. By this time, his parents are fed up with him and ship him off to a disciplinary center for minors.\nWhile many aspects of the events in Antoine's life may seem rather depressing, the genius behind Truffaut's film is that it is not depressing at all. The film consistently maintains a fresh and breezy ambience that captures the essence of childhood. The 400 Blows presents its story in such a refreshingly direct fashion that it often resembles real life rather than a fictional film. Truffaut preferred to make films as true to life as possible, and The 400 Blows reflects this with its cin\u00e9ma verit\u00e9 style.\nTo audiences of the day, accustomed to the likes of Ben Hur or The Greatest Show on Earth, the relaxed and casual atmosphere of The 400 Blows must have seemed like a revelation. Instead of being a gloomy, preachy, heavy-handed drama about a juvenile delinquent, The 400 Blows was an amusing and whimsical look at the often painful process of growing up during the adolescent years. Antoine Doinel was merely trying to find a proper balance between the need for freedom and self-expression versus the need to conform to society. It is the universal dilemma for adolescents everywhere.\nThe 400 Blows contains numerous unforgettable scenes and images which reflect the joy and frustration of being a child. In one delightful sequence, Antoine has run away to the carnival and hops onto a centrifugal ride while his friend Ren\u00e9 watches. As the ride whips by, the other riders are pressed flat and upright against the wall, whereas Antoine laughs and crawls all over, ending up in a goofy, horizontal position as the ride slows down. It is an ingenuous but candid scene which reveals Antoine's longing to be slightly different, and what adolescent has never wanted to be different or rebellious or unique?\nOne of the funniest sequences involves a gym teacher who takes his class out on the town for exercise. He cheerfully blows his whistle and jogs on forward, while unbeknownst to him, the loose procession of students behind him slowly withers away. Store by store, block by block, they just melt away until only the unwary teacher and two unlucky students are left. The sequence wondrously captures the mischievous spirit of childhood that is not limited to Antoine alone. In contrast, compare this to the strict and orderly marches at the somber disciplinary center, where even minor infractions are showered with punishment.\nThe two most famous images in The 400 Blows, however, appear in the latter half of the film. The first is a shot of Antoine, locked in a small holding cell for vagrancy and theft. Alone and bored, he pulls his turtleneck sweater partially over his face, peering dispassionately over the top of the fabric. A descriptive expression of Antoine's resignation yet also his defiance, this image came to be symbolic of the French New Wave. Truffaut himself would use the image again fleetingly in Antoine and Colette.\nThe second image, however, is the famous closing shot of The 400 Blows, inspired by a similar shot in Ingmar Bergman's Monika. The 400 Blows ends on two of the longest continuous shots of the film. Initially, we see Antoine running away again along a rural path. He has no set destination, but his sense of liberation, of being free from parents and teachers or other restraints, drives him forward. His excursion leads into the next shot, wherein he comes across a seashore. Earlier in the film, he had expressed a desire to see the ocean. To Antoine, the ocean, with its open blue skies and wide unhindered space, was the very vision of true freedom. So, it is only fitting, as The 400 Blows comes to a close, that Antoine should now encounter these coastal waters.\nAntoine approaches the beach. He enters the water, then stops and looks around searchingly. The shot freezes. There is an optical zoom into this freeze-frame that focuses upon Antoine's face. For several seconds, this famous image is held, then it fades away, and the film ends. It is a mysteriously abrupt conclusion to the film. Antoine's expression, in this final shot, is not one of unadulterated elation but one of thoughtful contemplation. What does it mean? Is this final shot meant to signify the crossroads at which Antoine now stands? Is he looking backwards or looking forward? Is he perhaps addressing the audience, as if to ask, \"what happens now?\" Or perhaps, is it the first true indication of mature introspection in Antoine, that he is now ready to graduate beyond adolescence? Truffaut offers no direct answers here, of course, but in leaving this final shot open-ended, he allows the audiences to come to their own conclusion. This abstract ending is provocative yet ultimately more emotionally satisfying than any obligatory happy ending could have been.\nMuch as The 400 Blows illustrated a new change in Antoine Doinel, so it also completed Truffaut's transformation from unruly youth into a world-class director. At its premiere in the 1959 Cannes Festival, Truffaut's film won the prize for best direction, a redeeming triumph for him. Sadly, his beloved mentor, Andr\u00e9 Bazin, did not live to see his prot\u00e9g\u00e9's great success. The celebrated film critic had succumbed to leukemia early during the production of The 400 Blows. He was barely forty years old. Truffaut, though devastated, would ultimately dedicate The 400 Blows in lasting tribute to Bazin, the man who had once seen a potential for greatness in the young, undisciplined Truffaut.\nIt keeps getting better and better...Criterion has done a fabulous job with this Blu-ray transfer, which really delivers Truffaut's black and white imagery with surprising cleanness and crispness. The print is well restored, and the darker and lighter depictions are strikingly rendered. This is one of the best classic black and white offerings I've yet seen!\nThe uncompressed audio is a revelation...though original mono, there is a new depth and clarity to the sound, from the breezy jazzy score to the dialogue and effects. This has more dynamic range than most mono tracks, and nothing sounds thin or compressed. Very impressive!\nThe disc includes two audio commentaries, one by cinema professor Brian Stonehill, and another from Truffaut's friend Rober Lachenay. There is audition footage of Jean-Pierre Leaud, Patrick Auffay and Richard Kanayan, newsreel footage of Leaud at the Cannes Film Festival, a television interview with Truffaut and a TV program excerpt, plus the original trailer. The booklet contains an essay by scholar Annette Insdorf.\nTruffaut's masterpiece The 400 Blows is universally recognized as one of the finest films ever made about adolescence. Now, with this stunning Blu-ray offering from Criterion, there's never been a better way to view this seminal classic at home.",

You might want to check out this three-story, four-bedroom penthouse up in the market for sale.\nMichael Lowdon, the director of Ray White Residential in Sydney's business district, said, \"It is located in the heart of the historic Rocks precinct and is ideally placed to benefit from what I can describe as an axis of sheer opulence.\"\nThe luxurious penthouse, which lies in a picturesque view of Sydney Harbour Bridge and Sydney Harbour, is now offered in the market with almost 3-million-dollar-discount. From its original price of 18 million US Dollars, the real estate is now on sale at 15 to 16 million US Dollars or more than 111 million Chinese Yuan, according to The Australian.\nThe 589 square-meter penthouse was designed perfectly with high-class furniture, stylish decorations, and expensive appliances, which will all be included in the selling of the house. It features midcentury modern and contemporary theme, something that will give anyone a modern and warm vibe.\nThe best thing about the house is its two roof terraces with barbecue made especially for guests to have a wonderful time. The unit also has its elevator inside. Furthermore, you will surely enjoy making your meals with your family with the house's Miele appliance-equipped kitchen, everything over marbled floors.\nThe unique qualities of the house are its 24-hour concierge, meeting room, and on-site building manager. Aside from that, new owners will surely get healthy and fit with the swimming pool and gymnasium within its premise, as posted in Stuff.\nLowdon also shared that with the location of the house and everything that's in it, there is no doubt it can generate interest from a lot of people across the globe.\nThe unit was purchased by China's one of the youngest female billionaires Zetian Zhang in April 2015 with an original price of 12.21 million US dollars or more than 84 million Chinese Yuan.\nMs. Zhang, who was popularly known as \"Milk Tea Sister\" first gained fame by becoming an internet sensation. She became popular after a photo of her holding a tea in a cup went viral.\nHer innocence and remarkable smile became the asset that paved her way to the top. That was until she met and married one of China's richest men, Qiangdong \"Richard\" Liu, who is also the founder of Chinese e-commerce behemoth, JD.com. His net worth is said to be 10.1 billion US dollars or more than 70 billion Chinese Yuan.",

        "raw_content": "New central bank policy reaps benefits\nChina's renminbi further strengthened against the US dollar on Monday, after the introduction of the central bank's new policy to prevent irrational sell-offs in the foreign exchange market. The currency's depreciation pressure is expected to ease in the near term, said analysts.\nThe renminbi's daily trading reference rate rose to 6.8508 per dollar on Monday, up from 6.8710 on Friday. The currency was allowed to trade up or down by 2 percent around the reference rate, or the central parity.\nThis rebound followed an announcement on the central bank's website late on Friday. It said that the country had resumed a \"counter-cyclical factor\" in the foreign exchange regime since August, to hedge against market's irrational sentiment toward a weaker yuan.\nThe market took immediate steps after the news on Friday, indicated by the fast rise of the spot rate in both onshore and offshore markets, as confidence to maintain a stable renminbi was strengthened.\n\"Influenced by a stronger US dollar and trade frictions, some pro-cyclical activities have shown up in the foreign exchange market. Based on an assessment of the market situation, banks, as the market makers for offering the yuan's central parity exchange rate against the dollar, have adjusted the regime,\" according to the central bank's statement.\nThe counter-cyclical factor is expected to help stabilize the yuan at a reasonable and equilibrium level in the future, said the People's Bank of China, the central bank, in the statement.\nXie Yaxuan, an analyst with China Merchants Securities, said the move is likely to ease the renminbi's depreciation pressure to some extent.\n\"Its effective exchange rate index, against a basket of major currencies, may return to around 94.7, if the countercyclical factor starts to take effect,\" said Xie. The index hit 92.33 on Aug 1, a record low since it was first introduced in November 2015. It peaked at 98.11 on June 19.\nThe renminbi weakened by nearly 6 percent against the US dollar over the past three months, and the market is concerned it may result in capital outflows if the depreciation pressure rises.\n\"It has showed that the central bank has adequate policy tools to sustain a relatively stable exchange rate at an equilibrium level,\" said Zhang Yu, an economist with Hu Chuang Securities.\nShe expected further moves are possible if the currency slumped lower than a \"psychological threshold\" of seven per dollar, and the current stabilized renminbi could remove the pressure of capital outflows.\nIn May 2017, a \"counter-cyclical factor\" was introduced for the first time to the existing pricing model of the yuan's daily trading reference rate, aiming to moderate pro-cyclical fluctuations driven by irrational sentiment in the foreign exchange market.\nIt was suspended in January, when the yuan appreciated against the dollar and cross-border capital flows showed stable trends.\nThe central bank also said on Friday that the current economic foundations are stable, and the economic restructuring progress has been pushed forward, with accelerating growth model transactions.\nLi Bo, director of the People's Bank of China's monetary policy department, said at a news conference last week that the current renminbi exchange rate is mainly determined by market supply and demand.\nBanks restart \"counter-cyclical\" adjustment for stable yuan [ 2018-08-27 ]\nYuan value rises, with its flexible rate set to continue [ 2018-08-23 ]",

        "raw_content": "A clastic sedimentary rock composed mostly of sand-sized particles\nThis article is about the geological rock type. For other uses, see Sandstone (disambiguation).\nTypically quartz and feldspar; lithic fragments are also common. Other minerals may be found in particularly mature sandstone.\nSandstone is a clastic sedimentary rock composed mainly of sand-sized (0.0625 to 2 mm) mineral particles or rock fragments.\nMost sandstone is composed of quartz or feldspar (both silicates) because they are the most resistant minerals to weathering processes at the Earth's surface, as seen in Bowen's reaction series. Like uncemented sand, sandstone may be any color due to impurities within the minerals, but the most common colors are tan, brown, yellow, red, grey, pink, white, and black. Since sandstone beds often form highly visible cliffs and other topographic features, certain colors of sandstone have been strongly identified with certain regions.\nRock formations that are primarily composed of sandstone usually allow the percolation of water and other fluids and are porous enough to store large quantities, making them valuable aquifers and petroleum reservoirs. Fine-grained aquifers, such as sandstones, are better able to filter out pollutants from the surface than are rocks with cracks and crevices, such as limestone or other rocks fractured by seismic activity.\nQuartz-bearing sandstone can be changed into quartzite through metamorphism, usually related to tectonic compression within orogenic belts.\n2.1 Framework grains\n2.4 Pore space\n3 Types of sandstone\n3.1 Dott's classification scheme\nFind sources: \"Sandstone\" \u2013 news \u00b7 newspapers \u00b7 books \u00b7 scholar \u00b7 JSTOR (May 2014) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)\nSand from Coral Pink Sand Dunes State Park, Utah. These are grains of quartz with a hematite coating providing the orange colour. Scale bar is 1.0 mm.\nSandstones are clastic in origin (as opposed to either organic, like chalk and coal, or chemical, like gypsum and jasper).[1] They are formed from cemented grains that may either be fragments of a pre-existing rock or be mono-minerallic crystals. The cements binding these grains together are typically calcite, clays, and silica. Grain sizes in sands are defined (in geology) within the range of 0.0625 mm to 2 mm (0.0025\u20130.08 inches). Clays and sediments with smaller grain sizes not visible with the naked eye, including siltstones and shales, are typically called argillaceous sediments; rocks with larger grain sizes, including breccias and conglomerates, are termed rudaceous sediments.\nRed sandstone interior of Lower Antelope Canyon, Arizona, worn smooth by erosion from flash flooding over thousands of years.\nTafoni at Twyfelfontein in Namibia\nThe formation of sandstone involves two principal stages. First, a layer or layers of sand accumulates as the result of sedimentation, either from water (as in a stream, lake, or sea) or from air (as in a desert). Typically, sedimentation occurs by the sand settling out from suspension; i.e., ceasing to be rolled or bounced along the bottom of a body of water or ground surface (e.g., in a desert or erg). Finally, once it has accumulated, the sand becomes sandstone when it is compacted by the pressure of overlying deposits and cemented by the precipitation of minerals within the pore spaces between sand grains.\nThe most common cementing materials are silica and calcium carbonate, which are often derived either from dissolution or from alteration of the sand after it was buried. Colors will usually be tan or yellow (from a blend of the clear quartz with the dark amber feldspar content of the sand). A predominant additional colourant in the southwestern United States is iron oxide, which imparts reddish tints ranging from pink to dark red (terracotta), with additional manganese imparting a purplish hue. Red sandstones are also seen in the Southwest and West of Britain, as well as central Europe and Mongolia. The regularity of the latter favours use as a source for masonry, either as a primary building material or as a facing stone, over other forms of construction.\nThe environment where it is deposited is crucial in determining the characteristics of the resulting sandstone, which, in finer detail, include its grain size, sorting, and composition and, in more general detail, include the rock geometry and sedimentary structures. Principal environments of deposition may be split between terrestrial and marine, as illustrated by the following broad groupings:\nRivers (levees, point bars, channel sands)\nGlacial outwash\nDeserts (sand dunes and ergs)\nBeach and shoreface sands\nOffshore bars and sand waves\nStorm deposits (tempestites)\nTurbidites (submarine channels and fans)\nFramework grains[edit]\nParadise Quarry, Sydney, Australia\nGrus sand and the granitoid from which it is derived\nFramework grains are sand-sized (0.0625-to-2-millimetre (0.00246 to 0.07874 in) diameter) detrital fragments that make up the bulk of a sandstone.[2][3] These grains can be classified into several different categories based on their mineral composition:\nQuartz framework grains are the dominant minerals in most clastic sedimentary rocks; this is because they have exceptional physical properties, such as hardness and chemical stability.[4] These physical properties allow the quartz grains to survive multiple recycling events, while also allowing the grains to display some degree of rounding.[4] Quartz grains evolve from plutonic rock, which are felsic in origin and also from older sandstones that have been recycled.\nFeldspathic framework grains are commonly the second most abundant mineral in sandstones.[4] Feldspar can be divided into two smaller subdivisions: alkali feldspars and plagioclase feldspars. The different types of feldspar can be distinguished under a petrographic microscope.[4] Below is a description of the different types of feldspar.\nAlkali feldspar is a group of minerals in which the chemical composition of the mineral can range from KAlSi3O8 to NaAlSi3O8, this represents a complete solid solution.[4]\nPlagioclase feldspar is a complex group of solid solution minerals that range in composition from NaAlSi3O8 to CaAl2Si2O8.[4]\nPhotomicrograph of a volcanic sand grain; upper picture is plane-polarised light, bottom picture is cross-polarised light, scale box at left-centre is 0.25 millimetre. This type of grain would be a main component of a lithic sandstone.\nLithic framework grains are pieces of ancient source rock that have yet to weather away to individual mineral grains, called lithic fragments or clasts.[4] Lithic fragments can be any fine-grained or coarse-grained igneous, metamorphic, or sedimentary rock,[4] although the most common lithic fragments found in sedimentary rocks are clasts of volcanic rocks.[4]\nAccessory minerals are all other mineral grains in a sandstone; commonly these minerals make up just a small percentage of the grains in a sandstone. Common accessory minerals include micas (muscovite and biotite), olivine, pyroxene, and corundum.[4][5] Many of these accessory grains are more dense than the silicates that make up the bulk of the rock. These heavy minerals are commonly resistant to weathering and can be used as an indicator of sandstone maturity through the ZTR index.[6] Common heavy minerals include zircon, tourmaline, rutile (hence ZTR), garnet, magnetite, or other dense, resistant minerals derived from the source rock.\nMatrix[edit]\nMatrix is very fine material, which is present within interstitial pore space between the framework grains.[4] The interstitial pore space can be classified into two varieties. One is to call the sandstone an arenite, and the other is to call it a wacke. Below is a definition of the differences between the two matrices:\nArenites are texturally clean sandstones that are free of or have very little matrix.[5]\nWackes are texturally dirty sandstones that have a significant amount of matrix.[3]\nCement is what binds the siliciclastic framework grains together. Cement is a secondary mineral that forms after deposition and during burial of the sandstone.[4] These cementing materials may be either silicate minerals or non-silicate minerals, such as calcite.[4]\nSilica cement can consist of either quartz or opal minerals. Quartz is the most common silicate mineral that acts as cement. In sandstone where there is silica cement present, the quartz grains are attached to cement, which creates a rim around the quartz grain called overgrowth. The overgrowth retains the same crystallographic continuity of quartz framework grain that is being cemented. Opal cement is found in sandstones that are rich in volcanogenic materials, and very rarely is in other sandstones.[4]\nCalcite cement is the most common carbonate cement. Calcite cement is an assortment of smaller calcite crystals. The cement adheres itself to the framework grains, this adhesion is what causes the framework grains to be adhered together.[4]\nOther minerals that act as cements include: hematite, limonite, feldspars, anhydrite, gypsum, barite, clay minerals, and zeolite minerals.[4]\nPore space[edit]\nPore space includes the open spaces within a rock or a soil.[7] The pore space in a rock has a direct relationship to the porosity and permeability of the rock. The porosity and permeability are directly influenced by the way the sand grains are packed together.[4]\nPorosity is the percentage of bulk volume that is inhabited by interstices within a given rock.[7] Porosity is directly influenced by the packing of even-sized spherical grains, rearranged from loosely packed to tightest packed in sandstones.[4]\nPermeability is the rate in which water or other fluids flow through the rock. For groundwater, work permeability may be measured in gallons per day through a one square foot cross section under a unit hydraulic gradient.[7]\nTypes of sandstone[edit]\nSchematic QFL diagram showing tectonic provinces\nCross-bedding and scour in sandstone of the Logan Formation (Lower Carboniferous) of Jackson County, Ohio\nAll sandstones are composed of the same general minerals. These minerals make up the framework components of the sandstones. Such components are quartz, feldspars,[8] and lithic fragments. Matrix may also be present in the interstitial spaces between the framework grains.[4] Below is a list of several major groups of sandstones. These groups are divided based on mineralogy and texture. Even though sandstones have very simple compositions which are based on framework grains, geologists have not been able to agree on a specific, right way, to classify sandstones.[4] Sandstone classifications are typically done by point-counting a thin section using a method like the Gazzi-Dickinson Method. The composition of a sandstone can have important information regarding the genesis of the sediment when used with a triangular Quartz, Feldspar, Lithic fragment (QFL diagrams). Many geologists, however, do not agree on how to separate the triangle parts into the single components so that the framework grains can be plotted.[4] Therefore, there have been many published ways to classify sandstones, all of which are similar in their general format.\nVisual aids are diagrams that allow geologists to interpret different characteristics about a sandstone. The following QFL chart and the sandstone provenance model correspond with each other therefore, when the QFL chart is plotted those points can then be plotted on the sandstone provenance model. The stage of textural maturity chart illustrates the different stages that a sandstone goes through.\nA QFL chart is a representation of the framework grains and matrix that is present in a sandstone. This chart is similar to those used in igneous petrology. When plotted correctly, this model of analysis creates for a meaningful quantitative classification of sandstones.[9]\nA sandstone provenance chart allows geologists to visually interpret the different types of places from which sandstones can originate.\nA stage of textural maturity is a chart that shows the different stages of sandstones. This chart shows the difference between immature, submature, mature, and supermature sandstones. As the sandstone becomes more mature, grains become more rounded, and there is less clay in the matrix of the rock.[4]\nDott's classification scheme[edit]\nDott's (1964) sandstone classification scheme is one of many such schemes used by geologists for classifying sandstones. Dott's scheme is a modification of Gilbert's classification of silicate sandstones, and it incorporates R.L. Folk's dual textural and compositional maturity concepts into one classification system.[10] The philosophy behind combining Gilbert's and R. L. Folk's schemes is that it is better able to \"portray the continuous nature of textural variation from mudstone to arenite and from stable to unstable grain composition\".[10] Dott's classification scheme is based on the mineralogy of framework grains, and on the type of matrix present in between the framework grains.\nIn this specific classification scheme, Dott has set the boundary between arenite and wackes at 15% matrix. In addition, Dott also breaks up the different types of framework grains that can be present in a sandstone into three major categories: quartz, feldspar, and lithic grains.[4]\nArenites are types of sandstone that have less than 15% clay matrix in between the framework grains.\nQuartz arenites are sandstones that contain more than 90% of siliceous grains. Grains can include quartz or chert rock fragments.[4] Quartz arenites are texturally mature to supermature sandstones. These pure quartz sands result from extensive weathering that occurred before and during transport. This weathering removed everything but quartz grains, the most stable mineral. They are commonly affiliated with rocks that are deposited in a stable cratonic environment, such as aeolian beaches or shelf environments.[4] Quartz arenites emanate from multiple recycling of quartz grains, generally as sedimentary source rocks and less regularly as first-cycle deposits derived from primary igneous or metamorphic rocks.[4]\nFeldspathic arenites are sandstones that contain less than 90% quartz, and more feldspar than unstable lithic fragments, and minor accessory minerals.[4] Feldspathic sandstones are commonly immature or sub-mature.[4] These sandstones occur in association with cratonic or stable shelf settings.[4] Feldspathic sandstones are derived from granitic-type, primary crystalline, rocks.[4] If the sandstone is dominantly plagioclase, then it is igneous in origin.[4]\nLithic arenites are characterised by generally high content of unstable lithic fragments. Examples include volcanic and metamorphic clasts, though stable clasts such as chert are common in lithic arenites.[4] This type of rock contains less than 90% quartz grains and more unstable rock fragments than feldspars.[4] They are commonly immature to submature texturally.[4] They are associated with fluvial conglomerates and other fluvial deposits, or in deeper water marine conglomerates.[4] They are formed under conditions that produce large volumes of unstable material, derived from fine-grained rocks, mostly shales, volcanic rocks, and metamorphic rock.[4]\nWackes are sandstones that contain more than 15% clay matrix between framework grains.\nQuartz wackes are uncommon because quartz arenites are texturally mature to supermature.[4]\nFelspathic wackes are feldspathic sandstone that contain a matrix that is greater than 15%.[4]\nLithic wacke is a sandstone in which the matrix greater than 15%.[4]\nArkose sandstones are more than 25 percent feldspar.[1] The grains tend to be poorly rounded and less well sorted than those of pure quartz sandstones. These feldspar-rich sandstones come from rapidly eroding granitic and metamorphic terrains where chemical weathering is subordinate to physical weathering.\nGreywacke sandstones are a heterogeneous mixture of lithic fragments and angular grains of quartz and feldspar or grains surrounded by a fine-grained clay matrix. Much of this matrix is formed by relatively soft fragments, such as shale and some volcanic rocks, that are chemically altered and physically compacted after deep burial of the sandstone formation.\nThe Main Quadrangle of the University of Sydney, a so-called sandstone university\n17,000 yr old sandstone oil lamp discovered at the caves of Lascaux, France\nSandstone statue Maria Immaculata by Fidelis Sporer, around 1770, in Freiburg, Germany\nSandstone is highly absorbent. These are sandstone beverage coasters.\nSandstone has been used for domestic construction and housewares since prehistoric times, and continues to be used.\nSandstone was a popular building material from ancient times. It is relatively soft, making it easy to carve. It has been widely used around the world in constructing temples, homes, and other buildings.[11] It has also been used for artistic purposes to create ornamental fountains and statues.\nSome sandstones are resistant to weathering, yet are easy to work. This makes sandstone a common building and paving material including in asphalt concrete. However, some that have been used in the past, such as the Collyhurst sandstone used in North West England, have been found less resistant, necessitating repair and replacement in older buildings.[12] Because of the hardness of individual grains, uniformity of grain size and friability of their structure, some types of sandstone are excellent materials from which to make grindstones, for sharpening blades and other implements. Non-friable sandstone can be used to make grindstones for grinding grain, e.g., gritstone.\nA type of pure quartz sandstone, orthoquartzite, with more of 90\u201395 percent of quartz,[13] has been proposed for nomination to the Global Heritage Stone Resource.[14] In some regions of Argentina, the orthoquartzite-stoned facade is one of the main features of the Mar del Plata style bungalows.[14]\nDimension stone \u2013 Natural stone that has been finished to specific sizes and shapes\nList of sandstones\nKurkar \u2013 Regional name for an aeolian quartz calcrete on the Levantine coast\nSedimentary basin \u2013 Regions of long-term subsidence creating space for infilling by sediments\nSydney sandstone\n^ a b \"A Basic Sedimentary Rock Classification\", L.S.

        "title": "Extreme Weather",
        "raw_content": "Natural variability in the climate often produces extremes in the weather. An important question which scientists are trying to answer is whether mankind\ufffds interference with the global climate through the enhancement of the natural greenhouse effect will increase the frequency or magnitude of extreme weather events.\nSome definitions of climatic extremes choose to separate the nature of the event from its social and economic consequences. A climate extreme then, is a significant departure from the normal state of the climate, irrespective of its actual impact on life or any other aspect of the Earth's ecology. When a climate extreme has an adverse impact on human welfare, it becomes a climatic disaster.\nExtreme weather events include droughts, floods and associated landslides, storms, cyclones and tornadoes, ocean and coastal surges, heat waves and cold snaps. A warmer world should in theory be wetter as well, since the rate of evaporation is increased and the atmosphere will contain more moisture for precipitation. Changes in precipitation however, will not be the same all over the world. Wet areas are likely to become wetter, with more frequent episodes of flooding, whilst dry areas may become drier, with longer periods of drought leading to an increased threat of desertification. In general, as more heat and moisture is put into the atmosphere, the likelihood of storms, hurricanes and tornadoes will increase.\nAny shift in average climate will almost inevitably result in a change in the frequency of extreme events. In general, more heat waves and fewer frosts could be expected as the average temperature rises, whilst the return period of severe flooding will be reduced substantially if precipitation increases. A 1 in a 100 year event for example, may become a 1 in 10 year event, whilst 1 in a 10 year event may become a 1 in 3 year event. For less adaptable societies in the developing world a shorter return period of extreme weather events may not allow them to fully recover from the effects of one event before the next event strikes.\nEvery region of the world experiences record-breaking climate extremes from time to time. In 1989, for example, the \"Big Wet\" in eastern Australia brought torrential downpours and the worst flooding in two centuries. Many people in England will remember the \"Hurricane\" of October 1987. More recently, Central America was devastated by Hurricane \"Mitch\" which wrought havoc for an entire month during the 1998 hurricane season. Droughts are another devastating type of climate extreme. Early this century, a trend towards increased drought in the North American Midwest culminated in the \"Dust Bowl\" decade of the \"dirty thirties\", after which conditions eased. During the 1970s and 1980s annual rainfall over the Sahel zone of northern Africa dropped 25% below the average, leading to severe desiccation and famine.\nFrequent reports of record-breaking events suggest that climate extremes are becoming more common. There is no scientific evidence however, that this is the case at the global level. Through the 20th century there does not appear to be any discernible trend in extreme weather events. In addition, given the large natural variability in climate and the general rarity of climatic extremes it is hard to determine whether they are now occurring as a result of global warming. A more likely explanation is that increased human vulnerability to climate extremes, particularly in developing countries, is transforming extreme events into climatic disasters. The communications revolution has also made people much more aware of the occurrence of extreme events and of their impact. What can be said with certainty however, is that any change in climate will affect society much more through extreme weather events rather than subtle changes in climate averages.",

        "raw_content": "Doctors should recommend surgery for epilepsy patients as early as possible, before their symptoms affect brain function and quality of life, according to research in Sweden.\nA key finding was that the earlier the surgery, the better chance the patient has of becoming symptom-free.\nAnna Edelvik, a doctoral student at the University of Gothenburg, published the research in her dissertation, \u201cLong-Term Outcomes Of Epilepsy Surgery \u2014 Prospective Studies Regarding Seizures, Employment And Quality Of Life.\u201d\nEpilepsy is the most common chronic neurological disease in Sweden, affecting an estimated 60,000 people. Medication is unable to prevent seizures in one of three patients, making surgery the only other option.\nIf seizures occur in a limited area of the brain \u2014 that is, if they are focal seizures \u2014 surgery can be a good option.\n\u201cWe try to locate the origin of the seizures as precisely as possible, and determine the proximity to areas of vital functional importance,\u201d Edelvik said in a news release. \u201cIt\u2019s important to be able to give good information to the patients about possible risks and benefits before making a decision to operate or not.\u201d\nShe said a third of epilepsy patients who have surgery are children, and the percentage is rising, which doctors consider a good sign.\nBut the average time until surgery in adults is 20 years. And doctors are often unable to tell which patients could benefit, which can further delay an operation.\nFifty-eight percent of epilepsy patients who have had surgery became seizure-free in five to 10 years, while only 17 percent of those with no surgery became seizure-free, Edelvik discovered. The longer a patient had epilepsy, the less chance they had of becoming seizure-free after surgery, she added.\nA study dealing with the number of post-surgery patients holding jobs backed up Edelvik\u2019s contention that the sooner an operation, the better. It found that the earlier the surgery, the more chance a person has of working afterward.\n\u201cThe highest number of persons in full-time employment at long-term was found among those who worked full-time before surgery, but even if they dropped out of the labor market before surgery, about one third of the persons who were seizure-free had full-time employment after ten to 15 years,\u201d Edelvik said. \u201cIt\u2019s important to identify the patients as early as possible before the epilepsy has had too large of an impact.\u201d\nThe results were in line with previous studies of epilepsy patients\u2019 quality of life. Patients who had not had surgery had lower quality-of-life scores than patients who had the surgery and healthy controls, according to the research.\nEpilepsy patients \u201cwant to have a job and a family like everyone else, but that doesn\u2019t happen just by becoming seizure-free,\u201d Edelvik said. \u201cEven if the whole lifestyle situation doesn\u2019t change, many would in any case benefit from being examined or evaluated for epilepsy surgery earlier.\u201d\nTagged brain function, health-related quality of life, intervention, seizures, surgery, symptoms.\nPrevious: Low Levels of Protein in Bipolar Disorder Triggers Epilepsy in Mice\nNext:Epilepsy Patients Taking Fycompa at Higher Risk of Falling, Study Suggests\nRare Heart Condition Linked to Risk of Seizures in Study\nA genetic heart disorder that causes a rare cardiac rhythm disease known as long QT syndrome has bee...",

        "raw_content": "Scientists at the European Southern Observatory (ESO) have discovered the second nearest planet to Earth, outside our solar system.\nBarnard's star B is now the second-closest known exoplanet to our Sun, after Proxima B that circles around Proxima Centauri, a red dwarf.\nThis was reported in the journal Nature. First is Proxima Centauri b orbiting Proxima Centauri and which is about four light years.\n\"Or it may be what we call a mini-Neptune, like a scaled-down version of the gas giants of our solar system\". \"However, we'll continue to observe this fast-moving star to exclude possible, but improbable, natural variations of the stellar brightness which could masquerade as a planet\". It is estimated that for this reason the average temperature on its surface is minus 150 to 170 degrees Celsius, so if the planet has water it will be in the form of ice rather than wet.\nIn a landmark discovery, an global team of astronomers led by Ignasi Ribas of the Institute of Space Studies of Catalonia (IEEC) and Institute of Space Sciences (IEEC- CSIC) has found a candidate planet orbiting Barnard's star. However, adding one more planet to the \"known\" list, scientists have confirmed the presence of an extremely cold \"Super Earth\" around six light-years away.\nThat nearby star - called Barnard's Star - is actually 30 trillion miles from Earth. The \"super-Earth\" is only dimly lit by its star, a red dwarf probably twice as old as the Sun. These wobbles affect the light coming from the star.\nIt's really near and therefore if you have the hope - like I do - of eventually seeing these planets to study them in detail we have to start with the immediate ones. \"After a very careful analysis, we are over 99 per cent confident that the planet is there, since this is the model that best fits our observations\", said Ignasi Ribas from the Institute of Space Sciences in Spain. The team of researchers combined 20 years worth of data from seven separate instruments to make their conclusion and discover the planet. \"However, we must remain cautious and collect more data to nail the case in the future\", Ribas said. \"This is the result of a large collaboration organized in the context of the Red Dots project, which is why it has contributions from teams all over the world including semi-professional astronomers coordinated by the American Association of Variable Star Observers\".\nA key group of Tory MPs published its rebuttal of the draft plan, claiming it will make the United Kingdom a \"rule-taker\".

The country prides itself in a wide range of cultures that directly translate to a wider variety of dance and music kinds. Spanish early dances and music are largely attributed to the Roman and Visigoth cultures. The evolution of traditional Spanish music scene has been dynamic over the past 19th century. Spanish music and dance are way above the global musical radar. Traditional music in Spain is a blend of many cultures and the cohesive nature of the Spanish population (Carr 254). Traditional music in Spain has developed in diverse means, especially under the Moorish rule. The country, boasting of cultures in the broad region with a host of various communities, has developed the dance and music scenes.\nSpain boasts of hundreds of traditional music and dance, valued all over the world. Spain\u2019s music and accompanying dances are popular in the global scene and the spread of the cultural aspects of music and dance have been progressing to other countries. In the much popularized Catalu\u00f1a, there are up to two hundred recorded traditional dances. The sardana dance expresses the rich variety of the Spanish folklore. This paper will explore the arguments of the impact of the Franco regime in the development of the sandrana dance and culture. The writer checks the myths and the assertions by the media and literary sources.\nHistory of Dance in the Franco\u2019s Spain\nFrancisco Franco, the Spanish dictator of the 20th century, is remembered for his extreme acts of banning music and dance in the tradition-vibrant country. During his reign, Franco banned public festivals, literature sessions, music and drama festivals and the use of regional languages. According to Franco, these factors were a barrier to the achievement of a uniform country. Being a vibrant nationalist, Franco had the intent to do away with all aspects that portray regionalism among them music and dance. The Spanish civil war of the 1930\u2019s brought the Franco\u2019s ban off all forms of art and use of ethnical languages. For over half a century, Spain\u2019s dance scene was developing and recovering from Franco\u2019s reign. Way ahead the Franco\u2019s era, Spain was the epicenter of dance and music. The native Spanish dances were attributed to Greek times. It was not unusual for people to create their own dances such as the flamenco, jota, sardana and contradanza. Invention and innovation of dance routines led to the formation of new bands, dance groups and better moves.\nIt was not until his death in 1975 that Spain, as a country, and Spanish culture in music and dance were revived in wider scopes. In fact, it is argued that Franco\u2019s death marked the revolution of traditional folk dance and music. The periods, considered as the high points for the radical change of Spanish music, are the Baroque period and the Renaissance. For instance, accompanying dances to classical music was of instrumental importance during the period of renaissance but was overshadowed by the easy music of the baroque.\nThe republic of Spain in Franco\u2019s regime and the civil war of the 1940\u2019s had its face as the Spanish dance also known as the flamenco dance. The strength of flamenco was retained by Franco who, in many ways, favored its existence. The strength of the flamenco dance in Spain is felt even up-to-date. In 1978, for instance, the government of the Duke of Alba encouraged the composition of dance troupes in Spain. For instance, the creation of the National Ballet of Spain was encouraged by the Ministry of Culture (Carr 254). The Ballet of Spain was registered as a company, and the famous Victor Ullate was chosen as the director. The company and the benefits, enjoyed by the flamenco dance scene, ensured that the Spanish dance culture was well continued. The lead of the company is still regarded as a mark on the history of dance in Spanish history.\nThe history of Spanish dance is owed to concert performances by the renowned artists such as Emma Maleras. Despite the opposition by the Franco\u2019s dictatorship regime, Maleras was a significant figure in the progression of art in Spanish culture. Through her book, \u201cStudy and annotation method of the castanet\u201d, the interpretation of \u201cM\u00e9todo de studio y anotaci\u00f3n de la casta\u00f1uela\u201d, Maleras advocated for the use of musical instruments in music and dance. In the Theatre Institute, Barcelona, Emma Maleras used her model for teaching dance which is regarded as a universal model. Through her efforts and model despite the resistance experienced, Maleras is celebrated for her efforts in the expansion of music.\nCatalan culture and Sardana\nThe Barcelona area of Spain homes the Catalunya area which is considered as the home for sardana dancing. In this form of dance, people join hands in circles with precise steps. In the dance, the circle becomes bigger as people move in a round motion. This dance is traditional and has been transmitted over generations as the dance of Catalunya.\nThe dictator Franco also banned the sardana, which is a public circle dance that is an expression of national unity and joy of Spain as a state. His early years of dictatorship were characterized by constant rebellion and the demolishment of the sardana. According to Franco, the sardana was a threat to national unity and the creation of cultural unison. Furthermore, Franco described the trend as that destroying the nation, rather than building the nation. Dancing of sardana was categorized as a crime just as robbery and corruption. In addition, the use of Catalan language was completely banned. As a result, there was an inhibition in the use of the Catalan language in publications, newspapers and journals. This strict measure was embossed by the signing of a decree.\nUntil 1939, the suppression of the native sardana dance by the Franco regime was held relentlessly. The Catalan culture as a whole including its languages, sardana and values were inhibited. The native sardana dance was the greatest symbol of the Catalan autonomy and prohibiting it brought with it detrimental effects on the culture. However, the demise of Franco in 1975 freed the Catalan culture, and Catalonia was once again regarded as a country by itself. To mark the end of dictatorship and kick start liberation, large numbers of the population were seen dancing sardana on the streets. Indeed, this was an immediate emblem of freedom. In 1939, Franco reconstituted his central government in order to obliterate the differences, created by the use of different languages. This, according to Franco\u2019s premises, was divisive to the Spanish culture and nationalism. Art and music was abolished just as regional laws and the regional institutions. The power, bestowed to Franco by himself, allowed him to ban sardana as a dance and all the regional laws.\nAll over Spain, the Catalans are considered as patriotic people (and proud at times) with their distinct culture that sets them apart from the castellan Spain. To a greater extent, the Catalans consider themselves as a country on their own with rigorous campaigns of separation for over a century.\nFrancisco Franco, on the other hand, viewed the Catalans as a threat to national unity. Ruling for more than three decades between 1940\u2019s and 1970\u2019s, Franco resented the national pride of the Catalans. To him, this was arrogant, unacceptable and insolent. In many efforts, Franco oppressed the Catalans through crippling measures and law systems. All this was in the course of making Spain a uniform state by eradicating the culture and language of the Catalan society.\nUnder the tyrannical rule of Franco, the Catalans still remained united as a culture and progressed with their culture termed as illegal (Payne 84). From all walks of life, the Catalan has remained in high esteem despite all challenges. Their unity is unmatchable. It is widely believed that it is Franco, the dictator, banned the use of sardana. However, my stand in the argument is that the measures, taken by Franco, are not as extreme as literary sources have claimed. Surprisingly, children and younger generations have been made to believe that Franco is a tyrannist and majorly he has be blamed for the infringement of the Catalana music and dance cultures. The Catalonia\u2019s national dance has been perceived to be banned by the tyrannical Franco. However, I am of the view that the Franco regime did not kill the sardana culture. In my opinion, it is the Francoist regime that encouraged the sardana as an acceptable dance routine. It should be recalled that the sardana was, initially, faced by difficulties during the period of Stalinist control between 1936 and 1969. Furthermore, all literary sources have reported little to prove the detrimental role of Franco in the regression of sardana as a dance.\nIn a recent study on young Catalans, aged between twenty five and thirty five, schools\u2019 curriculum taught children in schools that sardana was totally banned by Franco. The content further implicated Franco in the suppression of the Catalans as a society and sandrana as their national dance. This among other negative allegations implies that the books, journals and other literal materials have alleged these.\nThe intensity of Francoist oppression on the progression of sandrana is claimed to be in enormous measures. For instance, the premier of the Solench\u2019s La Sardana made claims that Francoism was not only a threat but also an act of colonialism by the Francoist government. However, the claims are vague and are further not consistent with previous claims of repression. A caption from the Solench\u2019s La Sardana reads:\nWe remember our parents,\nand their ancestors,\noppressed by repressions,\nyearning for liberties.\nWhen the enemy furious\nwanted to erase the character\nOf the Catalan homeland\nI resurged, quiet\nand radiant,\nthe sardana. (A una terra, dansa bella 2003).\nThe assertions, made by political and social spheres in the Catalan community, cannot be termed a modest. However, no distinct source of oppression has been validated in the public limelight. The claims of separatism and incitement by the Catalunya media were rampant with a key case being the charging of La Santa Epina.\nEvidence indicates that during the 40\u2019s till the 70\u2019s, the Catalunya\u2019s dance bands, commonly known as \u201cCoblas\u201d, were on a steady rise. With the accusation on Francoist rule, the data and the assertions made have no clear match. It is during the 1940\u2019s that the coblas flowered not only among the Catalana but also in the greater Spain. To disqualify the claims and reports made, it can be seen that individuals had better things to do during the civil war period other than engage in dance bands. At that point in time, security issues were of greater importance other than leisure and dance. It would be unfair to judge the trend Franco set on the sandrana as this was the worldwide trend. For instance, the British brass bands were all banned for long periods, preceding the Second World War and during the war. Despite this, the bands still continued to exist, although their existence was repressed for the war periods. The Francoist government did not in any way act as a barrier to the revival of the coblas after the war period. As a matter of fact, the Francoist government was seen to encourage the existence of these bands.\nIn the reign of Franco, all civil and public ceremonies were officially ended with performances by the sandranas. This was rampant, especially during the first years of the Francoist government. The celebrations, marking the liberation of Barcelona on June 27th, were colored up by the coblas bands. For instance, the celebrations on the 15th to 18th August, 1958 were graced by nine sardana performances that involved many people; Franco himself in attendance. This is on contrary to the belief that Franco was totally repressing the Catalonya population. The performances continued for days with no interruptions.\nAfter the war, sardanista groups were slowly re-formed and the bands were seen mushrooming in the streets. With the support of the government, through the support of the Organization of Popular dance, band existence was promoted. The organization was charged with the responsibility of promoting bands in Spain. To foster the existence of sardana and Catalonian culture, the Franco government in 1960 established the Universal Day of the Sardana, which preceded the establishment of the Congress for Sardanista studies in the previous year.\nThe presumptions, made by many spheres, are that Franco totally banned the Sardana, which is a public circle dance that is an expression of national unity and joy of Spain as a state. This is, however, not necessarily true. The basis of abolishment of the sandrana at the time was due to the concurrent Second World War that demanded for more time and energy as compared to leisure activities. The rebellion of the Catalana further impounded the understanding of the sandrana repression. Continuous opposition by the masses led to constant conflicts among the Catalunya residents and the Francoist government. The views presented by Franco that the sardana was a threat to national unity and the creation of cultural unison were on a steady basis. Furthermore, Franco described the trend of meeting in the streets for leisure, rather than development, as those destroying the nation, rather than building the nation. To impound the spread of the behavior, dancing of sardana was, thus, categorized as a crime just as robbery and corruption. In addition, the use of Catalan language was completely banned to foster nationalism and patriotism. The Catalonian population had in the past failed attempts and tried to assert itself as a free nation and not as a part of Spain. This was a threat to national unity at that point of time. As a result, there was an inhibition in the use of the Catalan language in publications, newspapers and journals. This strict measure was embossed by the signing of a decree.\nThe dictatorship nature of Franco\u2019s leadership cannot be renounced. However, the premise that Francoism is solely responsible for the banning of sandrana may be termed as a generalization or myth that many continue to hold onto. Unfortunately, the myths have been largely advocated for through the media and school curricula. Just like other countries, involved in the Second World War, being the \u2018captain of Spain\u2019, Franco was concerned by people\u2019s activities in other spheres such as music and dance other than the war, which was of considerable significance (Payne 84). The interpretations of his actions, according to me, are misleading with existing reinterpretations. The arguments presented in this paper are based on recorded evidences from credible literary materials rather than hearsay or presumptions. The transfer of guilt to Franco and his regime is viewed as a collection of forces against Franco as an individual.\nEven though a revolt was experienced, the monarchic Spain in the Franco\u2019s regime did not diminish the strength and the role of dance in the free Spain. Dance is an expression of culture and society and cannot exist fully without it. Though there have been allegations and misunderstandings in the Franco\u2019s role in suppressing the development of sandrana dance, national unity was boosted through music and dance. It is justified to imply that Franco\u2019s role in Spanish dance cannot be overlooked as he was a frantic supporter of the arts after the civil war.\nThe dynamic nature of the Spanish music scene over the century will take time to be killed by any form of leadership. The blend of cultures in the Spanish population has led to cohesion rather than division in the population. Traditional or native music in Spain has developed in diverse means, especially under the Moorish rule. The country, boasting of cultures in the broad region with a host of various communities, has developed the dance and music scenes despite the problems, experienced in the 1940\u2019s. With the high numbers of cultures in Spain, the dance culture will not be done away with soon. Spain boasts of hundreds of traditional music and dance, valuedall over the world. Spain\u2019s music and accompanying dances are popular in the global scene and the spread of the cultural aspects of music and dance have been progressing to other countries. In the much popularized Catalu\u00f1a, there are up to two hundred recorded traditional dances.\nThe claims and reports, asserted by literary sources, show that Franco was justified. As noted in the paper, individuals had better engaged in the civil war period other than engage in dance bands. At the peak of the war, security issues were of greater importance other than leisure and dance. It would be unfair to judge the trend Franco set on the sandrana as this was the worldwide trend. The discontinuation of the dance bands was not unique to Spain alone and it had been seen in other parts of the world . In addition, there was promotion of the bands after the war, justifying the disqualification at the time.\nThe Tapestry and Feudal War\nCarriages in America",

        "raw_content": "Information Security (Research Essay Sample)\n/ Samples / Research / Information Security\n\u2190 Discovery of Ancient Stone Tools in Texas Emotional Reactions \u2192\nCheck Out Our Information Security Essay\nInformation is an input that transmits a message and involves a sequence of symbols while security is a form of protection against criminal activities, damage or even loss. Information security means protection of information systems and the information itself. Julius Ceaser is known for invention Ceaser cipher which secured his information from 'wrong' hands. There has been much advancement, through World War II to 20th and 21st century, in technology which has led to electronic businesses and use of electronic data processing methods. This has led to emergence of many organizations with their main goal being information systems reliability and security (Volker, 2002).\nThe goal of information security is to protect the basic principles of information which include; the availability, integrity, confidentiality and privacy from use, destruction, disclosure, inspection and modification amongst others. All data is under a threat of insecurity regardless of whether it is printed, electronic or in any other form (Peltier, 2005). Most of businesses, individuals and governments store their information in computers. This information may range from the operations, objectives, workers and their confidential details to their liquidity. Some of the security measures used include; passwords, digital certificates and biometric techniques. Digital certificates and biometric techniques are more secure compared to passwords which cannot validate an actual owner but just an entry of a correct number. This means that anyone in possession of such passwords can access the information (Calabrese, 2004).\nThe key basic principles of information security are known as triad and there are debates to extend them. The three concepts widely known are integrity, availability and confidentiality. The proposed and are debated upon are Accountability and Non-Repudiation. This does not give the definite concepts because Donn Parker has proposed another model known as six atomic elements of information. Integrity means that any data modification can be noticed while confidentiality means that the information is not disclosed to any individual, organization or system that is unauthorized. Availability means that the information needed is accessible, no disruptions or failures and correct functioning of the systems. Non-Repudiation is more connected to law; it is the protection of both the sender and the receiver of the information against each other. Authenticity means validation of the parties involved (Calabrese, 2004).\nInformation security can only be effective if it takes into account procedures, technologies and security products just to name a few. Virus scanners and firewall information security have to incorporate systems and procedures in order to become effective. Information in computers is mostly vulnerable to hackers. These are people who break into computer systems and access information that they are not entitled to by use of their technological skills. Hacking can result to loss of information or plantation of a virus that may erase any information in the computer. However, the authorized users are more dangerous as far as information insecurity is concerned. It is difficult to differentiate between genuine and malicious acts in their day to day use of such information (Peltier, 2005). When there is leak of information about security or business matters to an enemy or a competitor, it can lead to war or elimination from the market. In reference to information security, this paper uses case USA air forces as an example.\nThe methods used to collect data during the study were questionnaires and interviews. However, it was difficult to interview some of the senior US air force officers due to their ever tight schedule. During the interview, Air force officers were expected to explain how the US Air force ensures security of its information and the challenging that the organization was facing. Those who were unwilling to be interviewed or could not be available for the interview were issued with questionnaires where they filled their views on the blank spaces left after every questions. Other information was obtained from the force's website and other written materials from the ministry of defense that explains how the US Air force operates (Peltier, 2005).\nThe US Air Force uses different methods used depending on the kind of information involved and the parties concerned. There are those that are generally used because every officer has an equal right to access them and others that can only be shared between the air force information custodians. Information security is very vital to such a super power country's air force because any leakage means an advantage to the enemy. They have incorporated the developments from their researchers as well as advancement in technology to ensure that their information is secure. Security means protect from their own hands as well as any unauthorized individual. Some of the methods that they use are discussed below (Peltier, 2005).\nThe first method is cryptography. Cryptography is the conversion of an original text (plaintext) into a secret code (ciphertext) via encryption algorithm for transmission over networks including the public and it has advanced to being electronic. The algorithm uses keys with bits 40 to 256 in length and the strength depends on the numbers used. It is these keys that encrypt the data and only the receiver with the same bits can unlock and convert it to the original form. It exists in two major architectures; secret key and the public key. Secret key is also known as the symmetric method and it uses such algorithms as DES and AES. It is faster and both the sender and the receiver encrypt and decrypt using the same key (Peltier, 2005). However, it is difficult to send the key to the receiver. Public keys are also known as the asymmetric system which uses two part keys. Both have a secret key and a share a public key. It is only the public key that is involved in transit hence the private key is more secure. This method is used by officers in the same camp and also those in different camps (Calabrese, 2004).\nAuthentication is another method which refers to a designed measure that prevents fraudulent transmission in communication by use of message. It helps in distinguishing official and genuine documents from those forged or fake. It is the verification of a user and also verifies the eligibility of individuals and can disclose strangers. It involves proof in order to at least secure that individuals are the authorized. Password is used to test on what the user knows. Digital certificates verify on what the user has. It is more secure compared to a password and when used together, they can add to security. They show the physical things in possession of the user and include; laptops and smart cards. Biometrics is difficult to forge and tell who you are. Iris recognition and fingerprints are some examples. Dynamic biometrics show what the user does and are in form of voice recognition and signatures (Peltier, 2005).\nThirdly, they have a Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility (SCIF) which handles sensitive information and is ultra secure. It has intrusion detectors, sound masking and data handling equipment for security purposes. All the authorized personnel have swipes and identification cards which they use during any entry and at exit because all the doors have been fixed with security components. Possessing a card does not mean that every individual can access every door or room with such systems. They are created in a way that no person can make an entry in an area that he/she is not entitled to. It may be designed according to ranks and duties. For sound masking, it covers conversations which generate sounds that are electronic and use loudspeakers to broadcast them hence increasing privacy. By use of these systems, even eavesdropping is impossible and use of laser can not affect them even if they are aimed through the windows (Volker, 2002).\nAntivirus software is used in protecting a computer from viruses that get unleashed each week. It should be updated often to ensure that it is up to date. This software can detect or even remove a computer malware. It uses signature based detection, heuristic based detection or file emulation in detecting virus. Signature based detection relies on signatures and though effective, signatures must have been created else it may not be able to detect. There has been advancements of this detection like polymorphic, oligomorphic and metamorphic which was recently written (Bidgoli, 2006). They do not match the dictionary signatures but rather disguise or encrypt themselves.\nHeuristic is used in more advanced/sophisticated antivirus software and are used in detection of new variants of an already existing or known malware. It applies generic detection because a virus may infect as single but in the process, grow to different dozens of stains. This is caused by refinements or mutation and can be detected and removed by use of single virus definition. File emulation is a type of heuristic approach and involves logging what a program performs after which the software can work on it depending on the results of the logging. Nevertheless, rootkit detection approach can be used which is a form of malware that can infect a computer system without detection. The antivirus software scans to detect on the presence of rootkit on the computer and work on it. The Air Force ensures that all computers have active and up to date antivirus. This reduces any infection from the already existing viruses, or those that have been unleashed (Bidgoli, 2006).\nFirewalls are also used by the U.S Air Force and refer to a barrier that is designed to prevent access of property or information by an unauthorized party. In computing world, firewall can allow or prevent transmissions and follows a set of rules. It exists in four types; Network layer and packet filters, Application layer, Proxies and Network address translation. Network layer is also known as packet filters and allows only the packets that match the set rules to go through. The said rules may be default or defined by an administrator. They are subdivided into stateful and stateless. Stateful firewalls speed the processing of packets by use of state information and always maintain the context. The packets that pass through it depend on the old rule or newly established rules (if a packet does not match existing rules, it is further processed and new rules are applied). Stateless firewalls deal with simple filters faster can also be used in protocols with no concept (Haselkom, 2007).\nApplication layer software works on browser traffic and protects the machine from reach of unwanted traffic. It also protects infection or spread of computer viruses by inspection of all packets involved. A proxy device can either be hardware or software which responds to inputs while blocking other packets. They make it difficult to misuse internal systems as long as they are configured and intact. Network address translations are used to hide protected addresses belonging to the protected hosts. It was developed to solve the problem of creating addresses for all computers in an organization as well as the limited Ipv4 addresses. Firewalls have been modernized and filter many more attributes in a packet. In the Air Force, secrecy is the guiding principle and the firewalls have enabled them to meet it (Peltier, 2005).\nBiometrics has also been used a security measure, although the U.S Air Force had stopped the use of thumbprints as a form of identification in their gates and doors. It tries to identify an individual's unique characteristics and it is very effective. Some of their applications include; authentication of retina and iris pattern, recognition of voice waveform and face recognition. Use of biometrics is attributable to both technology advancements as well as threats of insecurity. There has been use of hand scanners which has saved almost $400,000 as costs of manpower since the introduction of these systems by the gates. They have been able to arrest and detain terrorists by matching their fingerprints with those found in terrorist attacks. If this system is incorporated with other systems, it can provide improved security. They are focusing on improvement of this system and its application has reduced the use of passwords. Identity theft (people trying to fake to be other people) is eradicated by earlobe geometry which is also a form of biometry (Air Force Association, United States Army, 1999).\nUse of physical access controls is another form of information security. It ranges from the fence, a bouncer in a night club, border guards, and watchmen to use of turnstiles. Actually, this provides security to the entire organization. In the U.S Air Force gates, there is always restricted entrance as well as exit and only the authorized persons can access the property or a stranger but with permission. There are people who take care of different doors and gates regardless of other forms of protection. They have duty rotors on who is on duty, at what time of the day and which part of the base. This is to boost security since the gateman/woman scrutinizes every individual who gains access the rooms. The area occupied by the officers is fenced to discourage strangers and also ensure one way centralized points for entry and exit (Shon, 2008).\nSmartfillter is another protection measure for delivering content and filtering the web. The U.S air force selected this software as a base to high performance. This software can allow them to access management in all its bases in the world. In each centre that it has been deployed, it can carry its own web access policies. It provides a single internet with accelerated content delivery that enforces standard internet usage. Smartfilter operates on the blue coat web which is used in formation of sophisticated webs and can deny access to some given websites by some users. The Air Force personnel have created a high intelligent web by use of the knowledge from this smarstfilters hence cheap access to the internet. This blue coat has enabled the U.S Air Force to have control of their documents by regulating on the accessing users (Alexander, 2008).\nInformation security is vital in all forms of organizations whether private or public, small or big. Most information is transmitted and stored in electronic systems like computers. Technology has made it easier to secure information but it has also created a risk of insecurity. Encryption ensures total security of any message on transmission. Public key option is safer than the symmetric algorithms because whether the key on transmission falls on the wrong hands, the message can still be decrypted. The private keys guarantee privacy and authentication. However, it is slower as compared to the symmetric which is faster but it is more prone to risk of insecurity. Organizations should use this when transmitting information to their branches some of the information involved include financial statements (Bidgoli, 2006).\nAuthentication is also secure and its characteristic identifications make it better. One of the most common forms of authentication is signature. It is used in showing the credibility of information or documents. However, most of them can be forged in a way that differentiating between the original and the forged is difficult. Biometrics offers better ways of security because if they are used in combinations, they can reduce insecurity chances. They are mostly common in financial institutions and very sensitive offices. They can be used in doors, gates or even in the computers (Meldhe, 2006). Not many businesses can be able to afford the systems used because they are expensive to acquire and also their maintenance cost is high; they require advancing with technology.\nAntivirus is cheap and can be used to protect any information in a computer system. They can be upgraded, renewed or downloaded from the internet by the use of the system itself. Also, they can be acquired through installation from storage devices like flash disks, CDs, memory cards amongst others. Every computer has a capacity of acquiring antivirus by itself given that there is internet connection. You can never witness the function of antivirus but they really protect the computer against viruses. Each day, new viruses find their way in the computer world hence the need for updating. Although it is cheap, it can sometimes be defeated by the viruses that find their way to the computer hence exposing the system to risk. Also, the antivirus themselves can cause damage to the operating system I a way that it cannot be repaired and only a new OS can be installed (Stamp, 2006).\nPhysical access control in most cases is based by the doors and gates. Apart from electronic, use of watchmen, bouncers, security officers just to name a few is common in many organizations. It is used together with other forms not only to secure the information but also the property itself. Things like fences are of different kinds and are used though not to give a hundred percent, they minimize the risk of insecurity. By having individuals at the entrance, it is simple to detect strangers, visitors and also scare any unauthorized personnel. However, although it is the most practiced method, it is very insecure especially when fellow human beings act as the controls. They can be killed, corrupted or even their absence may present an opportunity for intruders to access the property, information or documents (Calabrese, 2004).\nFirewalls have proven to be effective in information security. They ensure that only the wanted material is able to reach destination. It can discard other information in its network as long as it is not part of the information being transmitted. It reduces chances of manipulation, infection or loss of information and ensures that only the original message is delivered. It is expensive to install but if a business is able have it, it is guaranteed of some security of its information (Volker, 2002).\nChallenges during the study\nCollecting information from primary sources was challenging. It was not possible to make an entry to any of the U.S Air Force bases due to security reasons. The available air force officers were not willing to give detailed information during the interview. The public is always kept at bay /out of their lines of business especially when it comes to their information hence collecting information from such bases was not an easy task. It was not possible either to get a website, journal, a book or any articles with full details about this area of research. Their websites provide shallow information and most of it is on their achievements, explanation of their goals and mission. In others, they required me to be a member in order to log in.\nEvery individual, organization, government and businesses have information. This information is printed, stored in computer or kept in any other means. Some information can be public (for general public) while the other can be private (confidential). Security of such information is needed in order to keep it from the hands unauthorized personnel. If a competitor got information about your business, he/she is in a position to use it to destroy you or even eliminate from the market. Some vital information about security in a country must be kept secret. This is only achieved through ensuring proper mechanisms are put into place to ensure which detect, remove or even prevent any loss, damage, or infection of information. Regardless of the methods used in securing information, maximum security should always be given priority just like any other business. Everyone should acknowledge technology.\nDiscovery of Ancient Stone Tools in Texas",

And like I do whenever I can, I stopped by Walden Pond in Concord to take a walk.\nI only had an hour but Walden Pond isn't very big.\nI kicked off my sandals and walked barefoot. Sometimes walking on the water's edge, but mostly walking along the pine needle strewn path around the pond.\nI lingered at the Thoreau cabin site. Sat on a rock to read a few pages of Walden. Dipped my feet in the water.\nWhy do I visit Walden Pond? Outside of Jesus, the biggest influence upon my personality is Henry David Thoreau. I've read Walden more than any other book outside of the Bible.\nI read Walden in college, and its call to non-conformity (\"If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured or far away.\"), simplicity (\"I say, beware of all enterprises that require new clothes.\") and intentionality (\"I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived.\") had a profound, decisive and lasting impact upon me.\nBefore reading Walden I used to care about what people thought. After Walden, I stopped.\nToday I'm known to colleagues and friends as a bit of a non-conformist. And I don't own a suit or pants other than jeans. I live each day with great deliberation, preferring to walk barefoot in the rain than send the next email in the office.\nThat is why I visit Walden Pond.",

        "raw_content": "Ernst Gr\u00fcnfeld : biography\nErnst Franz Gr\u00fcnfeld (November 21, 1893&nbsp;\u2013 April 3, 1962) was a leading Austrian chess grandmaster and chess writer, mainly on opening theory.\nErnst Gr\u00fcnfeld contributed many articles on openings to chess magazines around Europe. Indeed, before he had turned 20, he was already contributing articles on the Ruy Lopez to Wiener Schachzeitung, which was one of the most popular German language chess publications of its day, and over the next 40 years or so he wrote many articles on opening theory for chess publications in Germany, Belgium, and the USSR. His favorite market was in Bulgaria though because they used to pay for his work in food rather than in money!\nHe published several books which were generally well received and he contributed to a seminal account of the Teplice tournament of 1922. Other publications include The Queen's Pawn Game and the Queen's Gambit Declined (1924) and Taschenbuch der Eroffnungen im Schach (1953).\nHe reputedly modeled his style of play on Akiba Rubinstein's and only played 1.d4, claiming that he did not make mistakes in the opening. However, his style of avoiding complex variations together with an essentially drawish nature was simply not good enough to trouble the world's best. He is best remembered for his eponymous defence, the Gr\u00fcnfeld Defence (1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 g6 3.Nc3 d5) and for his general expertise in the opening.\nGr\u00fcnfeld was born in Josefstadt, Vienna. He nearly lost a leg in his early childhood, which was beset by poverty. However, he discovered chess, studied intensely, and quickly earned a reputation as a skilled player at the local chess club, the Wiener Schach-Klub.\nThe First World War (1914\u20131918) seriously affected Gr\u00fcnfeld's chances of playing the best in the world as few tournaments were played during this troubled period. He was reduced to playing correspondence matches and spent much of his spare time studying opening variations. He started a library of chess material which he kept in his small Viennese flat until his death at the age of 68 in 1962.\nHe developed a reputation as an expert on openings during the 1920s and success over the board soon followed. He was 1st= in Vienna (1920) with Savielly Tartakower; 1st in Margate (1923); 1st in Meran (1924); 1st in Budapest (1926) with Mario Monticelli; 1st in Vienna (1927) and he shared first spot in the Vienna tournaments of 1928 and 1933 (Trebitsch Memorial)\u2014the former with S\u00e1ndor Tak\u00e1cs and the latter with Hans M\u00fcller; and finally he was 1st in the tournament at Ostrava of 1933. He also won in the 23rd DSB Congress at Frankfurt 1923.\nDuring the Bad Pistyan (Pie\u0161\u0165any) tournament of April 1922 Gr\u00fcnfeld introduced his most important contribution to opening theory\u2014the Gr\u00fcnfeld Defence. He played the defence against Friedrich S\u00e4misch in round 7, drawing in 22 moves, and later that year he used it successfully against Alexander Alekhine in the Vienna tournament. However, he did not play the opening frequently.\nDuring the late 1920s and 1930s Gr\u00fcnfeld played top board for Austria in four Chess Olympiads (1927, 1931, 1933, 1935), and his best year was in 1927 when he scored 9\u00bd/12. According to the Chessmetrics website he would have been rated around 2715 at his peak (December 1924).\nIn May 1943, he took 2nd, behind Paul Keres, in Posen, and won in December 1943 in Vienna. After the Second World War, he tied for 3rd-4th at Vienna 1951 (Schlechter Memorial, Moshe Czerniak won). Gr\u00fcnfeld became an International Grandmaster in 1950. By the late 1950s he was playing very little chess and he mainly worked on his prodigious library which by now had completely filled the living room in his flat which he shared with his wife and daughter. His last tournament was Beverwijk (Hoogovens) in 1961, where in a field with five more strong grandmasters, he finished with a score of 3/9 (with only one win, against Jan Hein Donner).\nHe died in Ottakring, Vienna, of obesity on April 3, 1962.",

Though it will help if you have programmed before, or at least can understand programming logic and program flow, I will try to make sure that things start out slow so you don\u2019t get confused. Here\u2019s the preview of which you\u2019ll learn from this book. 1. The main purpose of this book is to teach people how to program 2. Python just happens to be the language I have chosen to use. 3. It is a very friendly language which lets you learn how to program without getting in your way. 4. When people decide to learn programming, they want to jump into C, C++, or Java, while Python is the ultimate programming language. However, these languages have little \u201cgotchas\u201d that can make learning difficult and dissuade people from continuing with programming. My goal is to present programming in a fun, friendly manner so you will have the desire to learn more.

These winds, which are based on a one-minute average, make Michael the strongest hurricane on record to hit the Florida Panhandle. According to the National Weather Service, it was also the third most intense hurricane to make landfall in the U.S. based on its central pressure of 919 hPa as it crossed the coast.\nImage: The eye of Hurricane Michael seen from the International Space Station. Credit - ISS/NWS\nAlmost as impressive as Michael's strength at landfall was the rate at which it intensified while approaching the coast. Feeding off warm water in the Gulf of Mexico, the system grew from a Category one hurricane to a strong Category four hurricane in less than 36 hours.\nFootage emerging from the area where Michael made landfall reveals widespread damage, flattened buildings and extensive flooding. The streets of Panama City were unrecognisable in the wake of the powerful hurricane and at least one death had been confirmed by Wednesday night.\nMichaels damage wasn't confined to the coast though, with one minute average wind speeds near its core still reaching 155km/h as it moved over southern Georgia some five hours after making landfall.\nThe weakening remnants of Hurricane Michael are expected to carry heavy rain over the southeastern United States on Thursday, before moving off the country's east coast on Friday morning. This path will spread heavy rain across parts of the Carolinas and Virginia, which were affected by Hurricane Florence last month.\nMichael's remnants may regain some strength as it moves off the east coast on Thursday night and Friday morning. Fortunately, the system is expected to move out to sea fairly quickly and shouldn't redevelop into a hurricane.",

        "raw_content": "How to Tell if a Person has Fibromyalgia\nBy admin On November 1, 2017 Tagged fibro Leave a comment\nby:Qan lil Sis\nFibromyalgia (FM) is a medical condition in which the sufferer experiences widespread chronic pain and an unusually heightened and painful response to pressure. It is a disease that can present challenges when it comes to diagnosis because most FM symptoms including tenderness of muscles, fatigue and pain are quite difficult to diagnose.\nIn addition to that, FM symptoms are also common to other medical conditions; this means that finding the correct diagnosis and treatment may take time. While FM isn\u2019t fatal, it can have prolonged detrimental effects that may last a lifetime.\nHere are a few warning signs that point to the possibility that you or any other person may have fibromyalgia.\nA major distinguishing characteristic of FM on the body is the so-called tender points. When firm pressure is applied on these tender points, the sufferer feels sore. These tender points are located on various body parts including elbows, knees, shoulders, hips and the back of the head.\nAll in all, there are 18 tender points. Sufferers of FM may experience discomfort in some or all of these locations. Physicians use tender points as part of FM diagnostics.\nPeople who suffer from FM often describe that they feel a constant pain. The pain may feel as though it emanates from the muscles but there are hardly any visible signs of tissue damage. FM patients tend to be abnormally more sensitive to pain stimuli than regular people.\nThe feeling of discomfort is usually widespread i.e. distributed over the entire body. There are a number of factors that can worsen the pain among them stress and lack of sleep.\nAny person who is in pain will definitely find difficulty in falling asleep and staying asleep the entire night. This is what sufferers of FM experience. On top of that, people who have FM have other conditions that interrupt sleep e.g. restless leg syndrome and sleep apnea.\nEven when they manage to get some sleep, they still end up getting less of the deep Rapid Eye Movement (REM) sleep that helps rejuvenate the body. Many a long night of sleeplessness, constant turning and tossing eventually leads to morning fatigue.\nRestless Limbs\nAccording to the American Fibromyalgia Syndrome Association, 50-70% of people with FM get headaches. The most commonly reported type of headache amongst sufferers of FM is migraine.\nWhen you suffer from a migraine, you experiencea throbbing in your head, nausea which can eventually lead to vomiting or sensitivity to sound and light. Some people have to turn off the lights and lie down in a dark room until the migraine subsides.\nApart from the pain associated with FM, sleeplessness can be caused by other conditions. Most of the people who suffer from FM complain about creepy crawly feelings in their arms and legs at night. Others report that they feel tingling sensations in the joints of their fingers.\nSuch feelings are very uncomfortable and unbearable to the point where one fells like moving which always wakes you from deep slumber. Lack of good quality sleep can impact your functioning ability the following day.\nThere are some reported cases of temporomandibular joint syndrome (TMJ) among people who suffer fibromyalgia. TMJ causes one to feel pain in their jaws. People who have TMJ will notice that their jaws make popping/snapping noises when they open and close their mouths.\nThey may also experience trouble chewing, speaking or fully opening their mouths. TMJ has been known to cause headaches and pain around the ears.\nPeople who suffer from FM suffer from cognitive dysfunctions. It impairs one\u2019s ability to concentrate, focus or pay attention while carrying out mental tasks. The condition was named fibro fog because FM patients tend to experience fogginess including: trouble clearing the head and issues with short and long term memory consolidation.\nThe causes of fibro fog are not yet clear but it is possible it has to do with a lack of adequate oxygen supply to the brain or the effects of pain on the brain.\nGastric Complications\nPeople with FM tend to suffer from gastric complications in the form of Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS). If you suffer from IBS, locating the nearest bathroom becomes an emergency.\nIBS affects the colon (large intestines) and causes bloating, diarrhoea, gas and pain and more often than not the symptoms occur unexpectedly. If IBS is not diagnosed and treated early, it can affect your daily life tremendously.\nIf you are experiencing FM, you sense may be heightened. This means that you can walk on the streets and feel an amplified sense of noise, brightness, and pain. A small touch to your skin may feel like a hard slap. And normal ambient noises may feel like loud concert music.\nThere\u2019s also a chance that you may feel an amplified sense of the temperature. It may either feel very hot or very cold.\nAbout Author : Paula Adams is a writer who focuses on writing useful content.

Used predominantly for the football matches of local team Kas\u0131mpa\u015fa Spor Kul\u00fcb\u00fc, the 14,234 capacity ground was last renovated in 2005.\nKas\u0131mpa\u015fa Stadium was converted into a football ground in 2005 after previously being used as a multi-purpose athletics by the local sports clubs of the Kas\u0131mpa\u015fa neighbourhood in Istanbul. In its inaugural season the stadium consisted of a main stand to the south which snakes around to the eastern goal-end, capable of seating 9,576 supporters. The pitch featured a mini athletics track around the perimeter of the pitch giving it an oval appearance, and the facilities were rather basic.\nFollowing promotion to S\u00fcper Lig Kas\u0131mpa\u015fa S.K relocated to the much larger Atat\u00fcrk Olympic Stadium during the 2007/2008 season so that their stadium could undergo extensive renovation work. Two new uncovered stands were erected on the vacant northern side, and western goal-end which increased the capacity to a respectable 14,234.\nSince opening as a football ground the stadium has been known as Recep Tayyip Erdo\u011fan Stadium, in honour of the former Turkish Prime Minister and President. Recep Tayyip Erdo\u011fan played for Kas\u0131mpa\u015fa S.K between 1969 and 1982 when the club were semi-professional, and famously rejected a move to city rivals Fenerbah\u00e7e which makes somewhat of a cult hero.\nCurrently the stadium satisfies UEFA\u2019s basic stadium criteria however it has yet to host European matches. Kasimpa\u2019s best league finish to date came during the 1961/1962 season when they finished 5th, however they\u2019ve yet to replicate this in the modern era.\nDuring the 2013/2014 season Be\u015fikta\u015f ground-shared Recep Tayyip Erdo\u011fan Stadium after the closure of their \u0130n\u00f6n\u00fc Stadium. Currently awaiting the completion of The Vodafone Arena which is estimated to be ready by 2015, Be\u015fikta\u015f will also be using the Atat\u00fcrk Olympic Stadium.\nBelow is a seating plan for Recep Tayyip Erdo\u011fan Stadium:\nRecep Tayyip Erdo\u011fan Stadium is comprised of four stands: North, East, South and West.",

        "raw_content": "$10 Giveaway Review COIN HEIST by ELISA LUDWIG @Coin_Heist @ElisaLudwigYA @AdaptiveBooks\nMY THOUGHTS: LOVED IT\nThe Breakfast Club with a plan to steal!\nWhat happens when your father embezzles your school's money and you become a pariah? You come up with a plan to repay the money by minting \"error\" coins at the Philly mint! Just a few of these coins, sold on the market, could be enough to repay the funds that Jason's dad has lost to day trading.\nFour high schoolers are thrown together in a design class and visit the US Mint as part of their class. You have Alice, queen of the nerds, who hasn't met a math problem she couldn't solve. Jason, whose father is responsible for the financial downfall of the school and a bit of a rebel. Dakota, picture and paper perfect, but has several dark secrets and has some self esteem issues. And Benny, the star football kid and scholarship student who wants out of the crushing poverty he lives in. Each has their own reason to save the school, but these four unlikely friends overcome their inner voices to pull this off. Except they don't quite do it right or according to plan.\nI really enjoyed this almost perfectly clean read. There is just a bit of language that is well placed, but nothing out of the ordinary. There is a bit of romance between Jason and Alice (the nerd who is actually unknowingly cute) and between Benny and Dakota. These four kids are from all opposite ends of the social spectrum and wouldn't normally have never come together. So yes, you get that special kiss at the perfect moment. There is just enough suspense to make your heart rush in parts, wondering if these kids can hack into the mint's computers and then actually steal the newly minted coins. I look forward to more from this author!\nWANT TO WIN $10 to Amazon?\nLabels: Elisa Ludwig, giveaway\nZed K 6/10/14, 11:27 AM\nHmmm....I'd steal a motorbike, although I wouldn't know how to ride it :S\nlol... I'd steal enough money that I could quit my job and stay home and read and cuddle with my dog :)\nHonestly, I don't think I'd do that. I'd feel too bad about it. Thanks for the giveaway.\nStephanie T. 6/10/14, 12:11 PM\nYour heart -winks-.

Heck, I'd check one out now!\nI haven't been to a mint, but it would be very interesting.\nI haven't been to a mint, but I bet it would be cool to see how everything works.\nNo, I don't think so. I'd feel bad about it.\nBella Bookaholic 6/13/14, 10:41 PM\nI haven't been to a mint\nHolly Bryan 6/14/14, 6:30 PM\nI have not ever been to a mint, but it sounds like it would be a pretty cool thing to see! All that money...oooohh..... I bet my son would enjoy it :)\nHi! I haven't been to a mint but would love to if the opportunity rises. Thanks for the giveaway! :)\nYeah, when I went to DC with the family last summer! It was so cool :)",

        "title": "Ethics and etzev - Fructus Ventris",
        "raw_content": "I was taught that dilemmas could be best resolved by balancing four basic principles - autonomy, beneficence, non-maleficence, and justice. In other words, respect the rights of each individual to make decisions, do good, do no harm, and be fair to everyone. These are lofty and often worthy ideals, but without concrete standards, they are meaningless. A house built on sand will eventually fall. I eventually realized that ethics without religion is basically an exercise in mental masturbation.\nOur religion has given us standards of behavior from which to derive right choices. We do not need to depend on revelation to see what is right and true, although revelation makes it easier! God wrote down the ways in which we are to behave when he created us, if we can but read the book of his natural laws. Violation of natural law has natural (and sometimes supernatural) consequences. Sometimes the trouble is in deciphering the natural law. (That is where revelation helps). In my field, I deal with the reproductive health of women. Now there is an area charged with tension.\nToday, I want to focus just a little on birth choices as ethical dilemmas for Catholic Christians. Our current culture of birth is extremely schizophrenic - it supports absolute autonomy for women to choose elective induction of labor, elective cesarean birth, heavy anesthesia, small families - and yet threatens and derides women and their families who choose home birth, vaginal birth after cesarean, vaginal breech birth, large families, etc.\nI work from a basic premise. God made us and He saw that it was good. Even after the fall, when Adam and Eve were cast out of the garden, children were seen as a blessing not a curse. Adam was told that in toil (etzev) he would work the fields to feed his family. Eve was told that her desire would be to her husband, and that in toil (etzev) would she bear children. The man is to toil to bring forth fruit from the earth - the woman is to toil to bring forth fruit from her body. Hard work, pain especially if one has not prepared and conditioned the body for labor (farming or childbirth!), potential for accidental injury, suffering, or even death - yes, they are all there. But God made us to function and generally we do.\nEvery thing in life carries a modicum of risk. One (specious) argument that is made in favor of contraception (and abortion, too) is that even the riskiest contraceptive (or abortion) is less risky than pregnancy to a woman's health and life. Elaborate statistical analyses 'prove' this to the satisfaction of the population planners. Pregnancy and childbirth, however, is a natural risk. It comes from being human. I have a bias that says a natural risk is morally superior to an unnatural risk, especially when there is a reasonable (natural)alternative to that unnatural risk.\nCesarean childbirth carries a greater risk to the life and health of the mother than normal birth (anywhere from 2 to 7 times greater risk of death, to say nothing of 'minor' complications). In some cases (probably between 5% to 10% of births), the risks to the mother's health and life from this major surgery are balanced by the risks to her, or her baby's, health and life from a normal birth. Choosing a route of birth then becomes a prudential judgement. Part of the responsibility of an expectant parent is to seek good counsel from a midwife and/or physician who understands and supports the culture of life. Another part of that responsibility is to cherish and care for that unborn child to the best of one's ability through healthy behavior, including prayer, nutrition, etc.\nThe same can be said for choosing the place and other circumstances for giving birth. Because of the complex intertwining of body, soul, and mind, the safest place in which to give birth is probably in the environment where the mother feels the safest and most secure. I have found that an important contribution to a good birth environment is being surrounded by prayer. This can be very difficult to achieve in the typical hospital setting, but is by no means impossible. I recommend memorizing some short Bible verses and prayers. A favorite of mine is Phil. 4:13, also the Glory Be. My friends that are Chassidic Jews pray psalms (tehillim) in labor, offering up their pain and prayers on behalf of infertile women.\nSometime later, I want to get into some of the moral/ethical questions that I have been posed by real people. Examples include choosing to have or refuse drugs and anesthesia, when is it acceptable to induce labor or schedule delivery (by cesarean or induction), and many others that assume the mother and the baby's needs are in conflict. If there are other questions that you would like me to tackle, send me an email or drop a comment in the box. I may answer your question with questions of my own, though!\nBy Davey's mommy on September 9, 2003 11:16 PM\nVery interesting, thanks. You already know what my issues are -- VBAC, homebirth, HBAC. I'll eat up anything you have to say on those. I don't assume that my needs are in conflict with the baby's, as much as I accept that I may be trading a very slight increase in risk of some unlikely bad outcomes which could be a lot worse for the baby than for me, for a high likelihood of many important benefits for both of us.\nWhat you say fits quite well with what my priest said. We're pretty much decided on going for HBAC with the information I have and under the circumstances I expect, but of course I haven't stopped listening to input.\nP.S.: The idea that where a birthing mother \"feels\" safest may be safest, as new agey as it sounds, seems to have good evidence behind it, and is part of what makes me think HBAC may be safest even in terms of risk of the worst outcomes, though I can't statistically prove it.\nFood to give up for lent was the previous entry in this blog.\nRend your hearts and not your clothing is the next entry in this blog.",

        "title": "Marriage as God's Intensive School of Love - Fructus Ventris",
        "raw_content": "Monsignor Burke explores the dynamics of love, marriage and children in his book \"Covenanted Happiness\" (Scepter Press). He shared with ZENIT how only the person who is prepared to face the challenges of love will grow in love, and how children challenge each spouse's capacity to love even more.\nQ: What are the \"laws of happiness\" as they are found and lived in Christian marriage?\nMonsignor Burke: The first thing to bear in mind is that marriage cannot give perfect happiness, nor can anything else here on earth. The purpose of marriage is not to give the spouses such happiness, but to mature them for it.\nIn everything here on earth, God is trying to teach us to love, which we will enjoy fully in heaven. Marriage is one of his most intensive schools of love, where he wishes to train most of his pupils.\nHappiness demands an effort. When a married person in difficulties allows the thought, \"I'll get a divorce and marry this other man or woman, because I'll be happier with him or her,\" they are really saying, \"My happiness depends on not having too much demanded of me. I'll be happy only if I don't have to make much of an effort to love.\"\nThe person who chooses to think this way can never be happy, for happiness is above all a consequence of giving, as it says in Acts 20:35: \"It is happier to give than to receive.\"\nHappiness is not possible inside or outside marriage for the person who is determined to get more than he or she is prepared to give.\nIn marriage, then, one has to learn to love. If people don't learn, they remain stuck in selfishness, like the devil or the soul in hell. Yet marriage remains a divine institution to gradually draw them out of that selfishness.\nOne also has to bind oneself to this task, that is, to enroll oneself in a definitive way in this school of love. If one is prepared just to give love a try and to abandon it if it doesn't seem to work, it will not work nor will one ever become a person truly able to love.\nQ: How does marriage achieve, deepen, mature and make permanent one's personal happiness?\nMonsignor Burke: Above all by drawing out of ourselves. We will never get started on the way to happiness until we realize that the main obstacle is our own self -- our self-centered concerns, worries and calculations. Paradoxically all these are absolute obstacles to personal happiness.\nThe paradox should not be difficult for the Christian to understand, for it goes to the heart of Christ's teaching on those who selfishly, calculatingly seek their lives: \"Whoever seeks his life will lose it; whoever loses it for my sake, will find it.\" The phrase \"for my sake\" points to all that is good, generous, pure and worthwhile.\nOne of the most common modern errors is to think that happiness comes by calculation. We think that our happiness depends on thinking things out cleverly and accurately: \"Will this plus that, minus the other, make me happy?\" It is not so. Personal happiness and the happiness of marriage depend mainly on generosity and sacrifice.\nQ: How do children bring happiness to a marriage and to the individual spouses?\nMonsignor Burke: This century has come to separate and oppose married fulfillment and having children. Many look on marriage just as a tandem affair -- happiness \ufffd deux -- in which children are regarded as a possible advantage or a possible hindrance to personal fulfillment. This is fundamentally not to trust God's design for marriage.\nThose who marry need to ponder that each child is a totally unique and unmatchable gift to the spouses' union and love. They also need to realize that children challenge each spouse's capacity to love even more than conjugal life does. Only the person who is prepared to face up to the challenges of love will grow in love.\nForty years of emphasis on self-fulfillment or on material comfort have been accompanied by an equal emphasis on family limitation.\nChildren -- one or two, at the most -- have come to be regarded as \"optional extras\" for a couple, not as the natural fulfillment of their married aspirations. Job, status, social life, gadgets, vacations, ease and comfort are seen as offering more happiness than children would.\nYet, if one is to judge from the growing number of broken homes, fewer children does not seem to have led to greater married stability, fulfillment or happiness.\nCatholic couples, too, have been deeply affected by the family planning mentality, to the extent that a \"planned\" family is often presented as a norm in pre-marriage instruction. Most of our young people marrying today probably regard natural family planning as a normal part of marriage; many, for whom it was never designed, are experiencing its effects on their married life.\nQ: What can hinder marital happiness?\nMonsignor Burke: The sacrament of marriage brings special graces to a couple to persevere in the mission of caring for each other and for the children God gives them.\nNeglect of the sacrament can indeed hinder that happiness, because the sacrament carries with it sacramental grace -- a specific aid from God that helps couples to live up to the commitment involved in married love.\nMarriage is not a sacrament that you \"go to\" often, as one goes to holy Communion; it is, rather, a sacrament that is received once. But to be faithful one needs to invoke the sacrament's grace constantly, as a priest needs to invoke the sacrament of his ordination.\nQ: How does Pope John Paul II's \"theology of the body\" contribute to marital happiness?\nMonsignor Burke: Pope John Paul presents the body as an instrument of interpersonal communion, teaching that this is true only where the full human meaning of the body and interbody relationship is respected, which is not so in contraception. To deliberately nullify the life-orientation of the conjugal act is to destroy its essential power to signify union.\nContraception denies the \"language of the body.\" It turns the marital act into self-deception, or into a mutual lie between the spouses themselves; for one is not really giving oneself, nor is one really accepting the other.\nQ: How does freedom play out in marriage?\nMonsignor Burke: Many today consider that to bind oneself in an irrevocable choice amounts to losing one's freedom. Not so. To marry is to commit oneself to a constant loving exercise of freedom.\nWhat sort of love is it that prefers to leave the \"way out\" always open? The person truly in love is not afraid of losing his or her freedom, but of losing his or her love. It is not the freedom to pledge oneself that one should fear, but the freedom to go back on one's pledge.\nThe freedom we should be afraid of is the freedom to be unfaithful -- which accompanies us to the end. That is why the humble lover feels the need to pray, \"Lord, make me faithful.\"\nIt's also why those who do back out are sad, for they have not only let down those who should be dear to them, they have let themselves down, too.\nThere is no easy way to happiness. Those who seek divorce because of the difficulties that marriage involves are simply balking at the difficulties that happiness involves. They are settling themselves on the road that leads away from happiness.\nQ: How can following the Church's teachings on marriage, children and contraception bring married couples to true happiness?\nMonsignor Burke: If a couple that does not observe Church teachings seems to be happy today, probably theirs is a very superficial happiness with a large element of unconquered selfishness. And there is little promise that they will be happy tomorrow.\nAs against this, today too there are many couples that try to be unconditionally in God's hands, accepting both that their marriage is \"for keeps\" and that God is the best natural family planner. God is the one with most knowledge and longest experience, who best knows the answer to the question: \"How many children can crown our family project?\"\nAs long as one looks at the question of happiness from a purely individual and ultimately self-concerned viewpoint, it will be hard to grasp how positive the Church's teaching is. The happiness of a Christian lies also in being sharers in God's plans. The sense of this great privilege has to be at the root of our happiness.\nMarried couples today need to be more aware of the marvelous witness they are called to give to a world that doesn't trust God. Pope John Paul II writes in \"Familiaris Consortio\" that \"To bear witness to the inestimable value of the indissolubility and fidelity of marriage is one of the most precious and most urgent tasks of Christian couples in our time.\"\nIndissolubility and procreativity are the two great values of marriage that are looked on today as negative burdens, whereas they are keys to true fulfillment and happiness. A united and happy couple is a testimony to the possibility and worth of unbreakable love, just as a united and happy family is a testimony to the blessedness of children.\nbrief comment was the previous entry in this blog.\nmore random thoughts is the next entry in this blog.",

Guess each household tends to have its own customs....\nJingle jingle jingle jingle....Christmas has come to the island!Handsome young calligrapher Seishuu Handa tries his hand at the Santa business for the first time! But could it be that Handa Claus isn't the only one who's come to visit all the nice little children...? The love of every dad warms the world in Volume 12 of this hot 'n' hearty island comedy!\nOh man, I didn't expect this to be so emotional.\nMost of this volume is rather lighthearted. Naru and Hina are learning new things in school, it snows in town and everyone gets excited, no matter how little there actually is. Christmas comes. The big surprise here, though, is that Naru's father shows up in town. But he won't talk to Naru, and instead stalks her, because she doesn't remember him.\nThis whole plot line is extremely sad to me. It's mostly used lightheartedly, of course, but there's one scene that just got me. Aw man. I just love Naru and her relationship with Handa. It makes some sense, as well, since we've never heard anything about her parents, and we still don't know anything about her mom. The volume ends with the new year, and Naru and Handa's coming trip to Tokyo. That should be really fun.\nI love this series. We finally got some character depth here, and it just hurt it was so sad and adorable. I'm excited for the next one.\nLabels: 4, barakamon, comedy, manga, review, satsuki yoshino, small town, yen press",

Without getting into the question of when Sunday was or wasn't at that time, the fact is there is no way anyone can take the Lord's Supper on Saturday night at this time and say they are taking it on Sunday morning. Saturday is the seventh day of the week and Sunday is the first day of the week. You don't live in Troas, you live in the <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = \"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags\" />United States of America and if you don't know the difference between Saturday and Sunday you really do have a problem.\nNo day has more than 24 hours. If Sunday morning begins on Saturday night, then Monday morning begins on Sunday night. The problem is, if those who observe the Lord's Supper on Saturday night are observing it on Sunday morning, then those poor deceived people who have been observing it on Sunday night for many years have been observing it on Monday morning, since a day cannot have more than 24 hours.\nOf course, the problem is solved for some by how they feel about it. If you feel in your heart that Saturday night is Sunday morning and that Monday morning is Sunday night, you have no spiritual problem, but you do have a mental problem. And of course that being the case you have nothing to worry about. God will take care of you. Anytime in that 30 hour time span\u20146:00 PM Saturday until Midnight Sunday\u2014is the first day of the week mentioned in Acts 20:7.\nEspecially is this true if you consult the N.O.L.V Bible. The N.O.L.V. is the NEW OUT TO LUNCH VERSION. The N.O.L.V. is the favorite version of those who observe the Lord's Supper on Saturday night and call it Sunday morning.\nPS According to the above: Sunday, the Lord\u2019s Day, is the only day in the week that has 30 hours.\nAnother thought: If those wanting to observe the Jewish time (that Sunday begins at sundown on Saturday) why don\u2019t they observe all of the Jewish Laws?",

        "raw_content": "7/5/07 - Gilford Village home of Milo Bacon preserved by niece\nWhen the library was looking for a site on which to build their new home, the comment heard again and again was to try and keep it in the Village. But because of limited available spac e, this was proving to be difficult. When the Bacon's decided to sell the family property, it proved to be the perfect site. For Sandy Perry, niece of Milo Bacon, this presented a dilemma and an opportunity to fulfill a dream. Sandy and her husband Roger own the lot across the street which is rich in her family's history. Having her Uncle's house moved to this family lot unites two aspects of this history. She tells her story in a letter to her aunt and uncle:\nDear Aunt Min and Uncle Milo,\nOld Home Day will come early for us this year. We have managed to secure the necessary approvals to move your home, You will not be going far. It will be placed across the street on the original homestead of our Munsey ancestors who set down their roots in Gilford Village seven generations ago - to me.\nYou've kept the house in good repair. Although, I have to tell you, I've taken some flack over your siding and porch windows. We will be making some changes to them. The old kitchen chimney you always wanted removed, Aunt Min, is gone, as it was taking up too much precious space. A new roof is planned before snow falls. We will be turning it back to a two-bedroom home as it was originally. Most work will have to wait until we are closer to retirement in the next year or two. Running a business doesn't allow us much free time and a round trip of five plus hours doesn't help.\nNo matter what we do to it, it will always be the house Aunt Bertha built and Uncle Milo's home. Written history of Gilford document that Herman and Bertha Olsen built the house in 1906. As you know, Herman Olsen w as the one-man Sheriff's Department for Gilford and kept his office in the dining room of this house. Where Herman served up justice, Aunt Minnie served up meals for her family. Herman was also an early superintendent of the Gunstock Ski area. Many of his ideas and designs were incorporated into the development of this site. Aunt Bertha was one of the three children born to Hannah Munsey Bacon. She grew up on the property we are moving her house to. And so, she comes home.\nLike Herman, as Gilford's first full-time paid fire chief, Uncle Milo, you pretty much ran a one-man show as well. Aunt Minnie was made a volunteer fireman for safety reasons, just in case you got into trouble before other respondents arrived. I'm sure she wasn't disappointed when you successfully recruited a very young Alan Whitney and retired her.\nA few years ago, I acquired the family genealogy. I have been sorting through seven generations of the Munsey-Bacon's and nine generations of Randlett-Wilkinsons, all early Gilford families. It was a couple of years later that we purchased the lot from Uncle Bill on Potter Hill Road which has been in the family for more than 190 years and which I still refer to as Grandpa's lot. When moving the house, we will have to set it to the east boundary so as not to disturb the maples Grandpa Wilkinson planted on the west boundary. All family land and childhood memories I couldn't bear to let go of. Then you departed and your homestead was acquired for the town for the new Gilford Library.\nI'm left standing on our lot , looking at your house with all this family history. The modest little house has stood the test of time and been a landmark in the village for over a century. For me, this presented a moral dilemma. Do I allow it to be demolished or do I move it two hundred yards to our lot where we had planned to build anyway. Fate? Or is Divine intervention at play?\nMoving day is July 10th. A testament that we can move forward and hold onto our history. It has been said. \"A man who has no interest in his ancestors should not expect that his descendants will have any interest in him\". How fortunate for us, that we are able to show this respect and love for our heritage and preserve another piece of history for the town.\nThis was a wonderful place to have spent my childhood. Roger and I are looking forward to returning and being closer to the families. We'll keep a couple of rockers on the porch, so you and Grandpa can chew the fat about the good old days.\nWith our love, Sandy and Roger\nAs of this date, the new foundation is in and the house is jacked up preparatory to being moved. Gilford's Thompson-Ames Historical Society is pleased to know that the home of Bertha Munsey Bacon is being preserved and will still be resting on Munsey property.\nCheck on Gilford's Thompson-Ames Historical Society www.gilfordhistoricalsociety.net for further information regarding the moving of the Bacon house.",

        "raw_content": "Home / Progress / GUDC Universal Design Certification of Grand Rapids Michigan YMCA featured in Architectural Record\u200b\nArchitectural Record News\nLevel Playing Field: True universal design goes beyond mere accessibility.\nIn 2015, the New York transit system opened its first new subway station in 25 years; the city of Toronto hosted the Pan Am and Parapan Am Games; the YMCA opened a new facility in Grand Rapids, Michigan; and a San Antonio school for deaf children won a design award for redefining what a learning place can be. What united these disparate events was an underlying commitment to including as wide a range of users as possible: in other words, to universal design.\nIn the United States, one out of every five adults lives with a disability, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The most common disability is a mobility limitation (defined as serious difficulty walking or climbing stairs) reported by one in eight adults, followed by disability in thinking or memory, independent living, vision, and self-care.\nOver the course of our lives, we are all likely to experience some limitation of our abilities, whether due to injury or illness, frailty in body or mind as we age, or just trying to get around with a child in a stroller. Throughout these changes of circum-stance, universal design\u2014which the notfor- profit research and advocacy group Global Universal Design Commission (GUDC) defines as \u201ca process that enables and empowers a perse population by improving human performance, health and wellness, and social participation\u201d\u2014goes beyond mere accessibility. Its aim is to improve the quality of life.\n\u201cWhen universal design really works,\u201d says Susan Ruptash, a principal at Toronto-based Quadrangle Architects, \u201cpeople don\u2019t say, \u2018Wow! This is accessible.\u2019 They say, \u2018Wow! This is fabulous.\u2019\" Both people with disabilities and those without are appreciating the new 34th Street/ Hudson Yards subway station, a centerpiece of New York\u2019s redevelopment plan for Manhattan\u2019s far west side. The city\u2019s subway system is more than a century old, and many of its stations are notoriously difficult to navigate. But here, ease of use and inclusive design were key planning concepts. \u201cWith this new station in the system, we had the opportunity to integrate all users,\u201d says Beth Greenberg, principal with Dattner Architects, design architects for the project.\nThe station, designed for a peak hourly capacity of 30,000 commuters, is 125 feet below street level, and the configuration of the descent showcases the inclusive concept. A pair of glass-enclosed inclined elevators, a first in New York\u2019s transit system, travel parallel to the station\u2019s banks of escalators down the long slope from upper to lower mezzanines, enabling passengers with a disability (or stroller, or large load) to experience what Greenberg describes as \u201ca shared quality of movement.\u201d\n\u201cEquitable use,\u201d in which an environment provides the same means of use for all users\u2014 identical whenever possible; equivalent when not\u2014is one of the primary principles of universal design, according to the Center for Universal Design at North Carolina State University. The idea is that a well-designed environment avoids isolating or stigmatizing any group of users, or privileging one group over another. In fact, the Hudson Yards elevators are so unlike the secondary paths to which less thoughtful design often directs disabled usere elevators\u2019 speed is set low to deter people who don\u2019t need them from riding just for fun.\nPrioritizing universal design from the outset of a project maximizes the chancer of garnering the greatest benefit. The inclined elevators, for example, not only foster equity, they also provide an economical solution to a construction challenge: by using the same tunnel as the escalators, the inclined elevators eliminate the need to drill out the separate\u2014and in this case expensive\u2014vertical and horizontal tunnels that would have been needed for a conventional elevator.\nOther examples of compound benefits at the station include clarity of way-finding, in which spatial form makes clear which way passengers should go, so that signage becomes supplementary. A 35-foot-wide central platform, the widest in the New York subway system, provides enhanced safety and ease of maneuverability for passengers with and without mobility challenges.\nWhile New York\u2019s new subway station demonstrates the compound advantages of universal design for mobility and inclusion in everyday life, facilities for the Pan Am and Parapan Am Games held last summer in Toronto demonstrated the ability of universal design not just to accommodate thousands of spectators, athletes, volunteers, and officials at a once-in-a-lifetime event, but also to leave a lasting legacy of awareness and inclusion. \u201cPeople are seeing the Parapan athletes as incredible athletes first and foremost,\u201d says Quadrangle\u2019s Ruptash, who acted as universal design consultant for the planning, design, and compliance of the Games\u2019 four new-build facilities. \u201cThe beauty of these high-profile events is that they really raise the bar.\u201d\nThe largest of the Games\u2019 new facilities, the CIBC Pan Am and Parapan Am Aquatics Centre and Field House (the Pan Am Sports Centre), designed by NORR, includes a multilevel fitness center, two 50-meter-long swimming pools, a pe tank, four competition-size gymnasiums, and a 41-foot climbing wall. The facility is also home to an institute dedicated to the training of high-performance athletes and para-athletes.\nInclusion at the Pan Am Sports Centre begins from the moment of arrival, with a choice of accessible parking spots: larger ones to accommodate mobility-aided passengers who need extra room to transfer from their vehicle, and standard-sized spaces for distance-limited passengers using a cane or walker. The welcome continues with a main reception desk integrating counters of different heights. Highcontrast and tactile signage, wide corridors and doors, elongated power controls for doors permitting operation with an elbow or foot, contrasting and glow-in-the-dark strips for a clearer view of stair edges, and double handrails for visitors of all heights promote ease of movement throughout the building.\nFlexibility and choice are fundamental tenets of universal design. At the Pan Am Sports Centre, athletics facilities offer genderspecific and family changing rooms. Roll-in showers (both communal and private), accessible fixtures, and good lighting design ensure that the facilities are easy to use and navigate. Ramps, lifts, and transfer benches provide options for entering a pool independently. Spectators with a disability can enjoy seating locations at all ticket rates without having their views blocked when excited fans jump to their feet.\nMost architects would agree that universal design is important. But resources and incentives for creating inclusive environments haven\u2019t always been widely available. To remedy that, the GUDC has developed a universaldesign certification standard. Based on a decade of research, stakeholder consultation, and testing, the certification standard is scheduled to launch later this year. \u201cOur goal was to create a set of universal design standards which exceeded minimum compliance, could be voluntarily adopted, and would spur innovation,\u201d says Peter Blanck, GUDC chairman.\nThe performance-based standard will comprise over 600 flexible and interactive strategies from which designers select the ones relevant to their project\u2019s goals. Each strategy will be linked to design resources, including supporting research and best practices. Project teams will have the option to certify their achievement by self-certification or third-party audit.\nIn December 2015, the Mary Free Bed YMCA became the first project to achieve certification in the pilot for GUDC guidelines. \u201cThe concept wasn\u2019t so much about designing a facility for persons with disabilities,\u201d says Michael Perry, executive vice president at Progressive AE, architects for the project. \u201cIt was really to change the mindset: to design focused on everybody.\u201d\nThe 116,000-square-foot, $31 million LEEDcertified facility in Grand Rapids, Michigan, includes two gymnasiums, two pools, two group fitness and indoor-cycling studios, an indoor track, climbing wall, tennis courts, playing fields, a greenhouse, teaching kitchen, learning farm, and access to a rapid bus line. In the Y\u2019s central, clerestory-lit volume, a bright yellow ramp forms a promenade between the building\u2019s two floors. There are no stairs. \u201cOften, when you walk into a building, the vertical circulation creates an immediate separation,\u201d says Perry. \u201cHere, we don\u2019t segregate.\u201d\nFollowing up on this initial gesture of inclusion, the building provides a way-finding system designed for multiple age groups and cultures, color schemes and lighting conditions to provide cues to people with all types of visual ability, and hearing loops to enhance functionality for hearing aids and cochlear implants. In pool areas (which often have poor acoustics), acoustic wall panels make a comfortable environment for people with and without hearing aids. Indoor and outdoor spaces accommodate perse needs with fitness equipment specially designed for wheelchair users, ergonomic and barrier-free changing facilities, self-operated transfer stations for entering and exiting the swimming pools, hard-surface trails, and a wheelchair softball field.\nPerhaps no group has more to gain from inclusive environments than children, particularly children with a disability. At the Sunshine Cottage School for Deaf Children, in San Antonio, winner of a 2015 AIA chapter design award, primary school children learn in an environment in which every design decision was considered for its impact on their ability to hear.\nSunshine Cottage has occupied its new building since 2010, but it has been helping hearing-impaired kids since 1947. \u201cCan you succeed without a building like this? You can,\u201d says Belinda Pustka, the school\u2019s executive director. \u201cBut it\u2019s so much easier now\u2014we aren\u2019t always fighting with the building to be successful. After more than five years here, I can say, \u2018the facility facilitates.\u2019 \u201d\nThe school\u2019s new campus comprises five structures: one for administration, one for elementary classes, another for parents and infants, and two for early-childhood education. Facilities include 20 classrooms, dedicated rooms for music and art, kitchen space and science labs, a gymnasium with a full-size basketball court, an occupationaltherapy room for speech therapists, and three age-appropriate playgrounds. The campus also includes an amphitheater, outdoor classrooms, a nature trail, and playing fields.\nChildren with impaired hearing concentrate a huge amount of mental energy on listening. To make learning easier for them, the architects\u2019 primary objective was to increase the environment\u2019s signal-to-noise ratio\u2014in other words, to amplify sounds that mean something (signals), and to eliminate those that don\u2019t (noise).\nStrategies included siting the building to minimize traffic noise, designing an acoustically tight building envelope, locating mechanical rooms so that they don\u2019t introduce ambient noise into the occupied spaces, and designing the HVAC system with large ducts so that the air would move slowly and quietly inside them. Light fixtures that wouldn\u2019t hum were selected. Electrical rooms were painted with electromagnetic shielding paint to prevent silent frequencies\u2019 affecting hearing implants. And to get the most\u2014or rather the least\u2014bang for the acoustic buck, panels were applied to walls rather than ceilings. Theresulting quiet, says Greg Papay, a partner at Lake Flato, the project\u2019s architects, \u201cmakes us understand how valuable a great acoustical environment is to everyone.\u201d\nWith the signal-to-noise ratio optimized, the architects\u2019 next objective was to give the children\u2019s hardworking senses some rest. Textures, colors, and materials were selected to harmonize with the adjacent landscape. Ample daylight, views to the outdoors, and settings for outdoor learning were designed to engage the senses in ways that would be restorative. \u201cSchools often edge designers toward primary colors and a cacophony of shapes and sizes, but focusing on the needs of hearingimpaired kids required us to eliminate the extraneous,\u201d says Papay. \u201cWe found that a lot of universal design overlaps with what we would do to make a really great learning environment anyway.\u201d\nThe Mary Free Bed YMCA has no stairs. Instead, a colorful ramp connects its two levels.\nPhoto \u00a9 BILL LINDHOUT",

        "raw_content": "People, by nature, admire strength. As a young boy, cartoons appeared in magazines and newspapers advertising pills, bodybuilding products and nutrition drinks\u2013all in an attempt to inspire young men to bulk up and be strong, be a man. Now much older, I have seen many men fall prey to sin and their own weaknesses. But these weaknesses were not a result of lack of muscle in the form of flesh and blood; rather it was invariably the result of lack of spiritual muscle. My experiences in seeing the lives of many men fall in the depths of despair is not unlike the story of Samson (See Judges chapters 13-16) In Judges 16:1. Samson was so strong he did not fear an entire Philistine army of 10,000 men. But he saw one woman and fell into sin. The strongest and bravest Philistine soldiers could not defeat him, but one attractive Philistine woman could and did! The life of Samson teaches us that lust and passion can control and ruin any man. I saw hundreds and thousands of lives like this in Vancouver\u2019s Inner City between 1997 and 2006. During that time, I was a missionary teacher helping men get educated, offering a path to a better life. Later I taught in a Christian boys school where highschool boys would gather in the fitness gym daily to gain muscle mass. What did I learn from these 2 teaching experiences? Whether it was lust, drugs or alcohol, men\u2019s greatest challenge is fortifying their inner muscles. Just look at Samson, a man with physical strength, but inner weakness. It ruined him.\nPut Your Joy in the Invisible",

        "raw_content": "Zayhn\t June 3, 2018\t Leave a Comment on 10 Things you (probably) didn\u2019t know about second world war\nJames Holland reveals 10 things you (probably) didn\u2019t know about the war\u2026\n1) France had more tanks, guns and men than Germany in 1940\nIt is always assumed that during the Second World War the Germans bludgeoned their way to victory with a highly modern and mechanised army and Air Force that was superior to anything the Allies could muster in May 1940. The reality was very different.\nOn 10 May 1940, when the Germans attacked, only 16 of their 135 divisions were mechanised \u2013 that is, equipped with motorised transport. The rest depended on horses and cart or feet. France alone had 117 divisions.\nFrance also had more guns: Germany had 7,378 artillery pieces and France 10,700. It didn\u2019t stop there: the Germans could muster 2,439 tanks while the French had 3,254, most of which were bigger, better armed and armoured than the German panzers.\n2) The priority for manpower in the UK is surprising\nBritain had decided before the war began that it would make air and naval power the focus of its fighting capability, and it was only after the fall of France that British powers realised that the Army would have to grow substantially too.\nHowever, right up until the spring of 1944, the priority for manpower in the UK was not the navy, RAF, army, or even the merchant navy, but the Ministry of Aircraft Production. In the war, Britain alone built 132,500 aircraft, a staggering achievement \u2013 especially when considering that Fighter Command in the battle of Britain never had more than 750 fighters.\n3) Allied merchant shipping losses were just 1 per cent\nAllied shipping losses in the Second World War in the North Atlantic, Arctic and Home Waters were just 1.48 per cent. Overall, there were 323,090 individual sailings, of which 4,786 were sunk. Of these, 2,562 were British, but on average, there were around 2,000 British ships sailing somewhere around the world on any given day.\nConvoys, for the most part, were pretty safe, even though a few suffered terribly. Independent sailings and stragglers from convoys suffered the worst, but faster independent sailings were needed to cut down on unloading time and congestion, which was the drawback of the convoy system.\n4) Britain had the least rationing in Europe\nFrance and Britain began the war without rationing and, while it was modestly introduced in Britain in January 1940, France had still resisted by the time they were defeated in June 1940. Germany, on the other hand, introduced rationing before the war and struggled to feed its armed forces and the wider population from start to finish.\nThe country\u2019s demand for food from occupied territories led to a lot of hunger for a lot of people, including the urban French. British people never had to go hungry and, although a number of foods were rationed, there were lots that were not. Certainly, by 1945, Britain had it very easy compared with the rest of Europe.\n5) The Japanese had Kamikaze rockets\nIt was not only the Germans who put rocket-power aircraft into the air in the Second World War. After their initial victories, the Japanese struggled to pace with US and British technology, but they did develop the Ohka \u2013 or \u2018Cherry Blossom\u2019, a rocket-power human-guided anti-shipping missile, which was used at the end of the war as a kamikaze weapon.\nIt had to be carried by a \u2018mother\u2019 plane to get within range, then once released would glide towards the target \u2013 usually a ship \u2013 before the pilot would fire the rockets and hurtle in at up to 600 mph. Ohka pilots were called Jinrai Butai \u2013 \u2018thunder gods\u2019 \u2013 but only managed to sink three Allied ships. It was a lot of effort and sacrifice for not very much.\n6) Field Marshal Alexander was the most experienced battlefield commander of the war\nField Marshal Alexander was known to every Britain in the country by the war\u2019s end, but he is less well known today. He had an extraordinary career, and was the only officer of the war to lead front-line troops at every rank.\nAfter rising to acting Brigadier in the First World War, he led the Nowshera Brigade on the Northwest Frontier in the 1930s, the First Division in France in 1940, and British forces in Burma in 1942. He commanded Middle East Forces and two army groups before finally becoming Supreme Allied Commander in the Mediterranean.\nHe was also unique in the British Army for having commanded German troops in Latvia in 1919-20 during the war against Russia.\n7) There was a difference between Allied & German fighter aces\nThe Luftwaffe had an entirely different approach to their \u2018aces.\u2019 Not only were pilots expected to fly on operations longer without breaks, they also actively helped their leading shots get big scores with lesser mortals protecting them while the \u2018experten\u2019 did the shooting.\nOn the Eastern Front they came up against badly armed and trained Soviet aircraft and soon the leading pilots began amassing huge scores. Bibi Hartmann was the leading ace of all time with 352 \u2018kills\u2019. The leading Allied ace of the entire war was RAF ace, James \u2018Johnnie\u2019 Johnson with 38 kills.\n8) The missing Luftwaffe fighter plane\nAt the same time as Messerschmitt was developing the Bf109, rival firm Heinkel were also putting forward a new all-metal monoplane fighter, the He112. Early prototypes of each were pretty evenly matched in terms of speed and rate of climb and both the Me109E, as Messerschmitt\u2019s fighter became, and the He112E had speeds of more than 350mph.\nThe latter could climb to 20,000 feet in 10 minutes. More importantly, it had a very sturdy inwardly-retracting undercarriage that made it easy to land for newly trained pilots, and a phenomenal range of some 715 miles, which was better even than the twin-engine Messerschmitt 110.\nThe He112 would have been the ideal partner to the Me109 \u2013 and its range was an advantage in the battle of Britain and elsewhere. However, while Willy Messerchmitt was a good party man and G\u00f6ring had a special (and irrational) fondness for the Me110, Heinkel had a whiff of Jewish blood \u2013 so the Heinkel fighter was dropped.\n9) The American Parsons Jacket was designed with comfort in mind\nThe standard and most widely worn US Army field tunic of the war was the M41, better known as the Parsons Jacket. This was introduced in 1941 following trials by the US 5th Division in exercises in the Midwest and Alaska in the summer and autumn of 1940, and was given its name after Major-General Parsons, the divisional commander.\nThe design, however, was based on a pre-war civilian windcheater: the rapidly expanding US Army recognised that most of its recruits were conscripts and that comfort, durability and practicality were more important than slick military bearing. With a zip and button front, it was a simple, lightweight and warm short jacket that required little tailoring and wasted no material, and which was designed in consultation with Esquire magazine\u2019s fashion desk.\n10) Germany\u2019s motor transport was minimal\nGerman wartime propaganda that the Third Reich had a highly mechanised and modern army is still widely believed, but actually, in 1939, Germany was one of the least automotive societies in the western world, despite the autobahns and Grand Prix victories of Mercedes.\nOn the outbreak of war, there were 47 people for every motor vehicle in Germany. In Britain, that figure was 14, in France it was eight, and in the USA it was four. This meant the German army was largely dependent on railways, horses and carts and the feet of its soldiers to get around; there were only 16 mechanised divisions in the army in May 1940.\nMore importantly, however, such comparatively low numbers of motor vehicles meant there were fewer factories, fewer workshops, fewer petrol pumps and fewer people who knew how to drive. In other words, it was a shortage that could not be easily rectified.\nTagged:10 facts about second world warTop 10 facts about world war 2\nPrevious PostMarvel upcoming movies list with release date\nNext PostIf you can\u2019t imagine things, how can you learn?",

This protocol was introduced in 1991 and is an official web standard. Almost all traffic on the web is handled through HTTP. When search engine spiders like Googlebot crawl a website, they behave like browsers requesting web pages from a site and rely on HTTP for this exchange. This is why it\u2019s important for search engine optimization specialists (SEOs) to understand how the HTTP protocol works and the impact it has on search engines\u2019 crawling and indexing of web pages.

        "raw_content": "An old friend, Hollywood icon and warrior for freedom just passed away. Hollywood producer and former presidential candidate Aaron Russo had been battling cancer for years and it finally caught up with him. I just spoke with immediate family members and confirmed his passing.\nAaron accomplished many things in his life; I\u2019ll merely highlight a few. As a musical producer and promoter, he brought Led Zeppelin to the United States and managed Bette Midler and the Manhattan Transfer. As a movie producer, he is perhaps most known for The Rose and Trading Places.\nIn politics, he starred in Mad as Hell and recently produced America: Freedom to Fascism. He also ran for Governor of Nevada on the GOP ticket and for the Libertarian Party presidential nomination.\nIn our last telephone conversation, Aaron told me he\u2019d kick my butt if I didn\u2019t do what I could to ensure Ron Paul is the next president of the United States. This was his style. While some have viewed his rough-appearing exterior in a negative manner, those of us who knew him realized what a Teddy Bear he truly was. For those who aren\u2019t aware, Aaron has a long history with Congressman Paul.\nMy whiskered old cheeks haven\u2019t seen a tear on them in quite some time; I can\u2019t type any more right now. I\u2019ll relay more information as the immediate family has time to deal with the situation.\nIf I had to guess the epitaph Aaron would prefer, it would be this: All your freedoms, all the time!\n12 Replies to \u201cMay Aaron Russo Rest In Peace\u201d\nA Keaton says:\nGiven the contributions of Led Zepplin and Bette Midler to pop culture, Mr. Russo deserves a large obit in the NYT. And a big send off from the LP.\nDean Cavanagh says:\nI was so sorry to hear the news from Gary Franchi. Aaron\u2019s film \u201cFrom Freedom To Fascism\u201d should be seen by everybody who values their freedoms. Thanks, Aaron. Dean, Bingley, UK.\nR. Haven says:\nI am very sad to hear of Aaron\u2019s passing. I can say this, though: his effort to restore our liberty will live on and gain more and more momentum. I have given copies of \u201cAmerica: Freedom to Fascism\u201d to 5 friends and family members and each one had a profound awakening experience while watching that film. One friend said he had to turn it off for 10 minutes at the half-way point because he was hyperventilating! Since then, I\u2019ve ordered and freely distributed over 100 copies of the AFTF DVD. I expect to order and distribute even more in the future.\nThank you, Aaron, for what you have done.\nDavid Chastain (GA) says:\nI have lost a dear friend who inspired me to political activism; who was not ashamed to express his love; who could be bombastic and then playful, cerebral and then silly, but always honest in his feelings.\nHe garnered the love and admiration of my wife and two younger kids, phoning the house and spending time talking to my 10-year-old daughter, Kate, before asking to speak with me about his 2004 Georgia nominating campaign.\nHe expressed his admiration for my son, Jason, and provided a positive influence on a his young life that will travel with him on into adulthood.\nHe loved life, family, entertainment, the Constitution and Liberty.\nHis loving partner Heidi and their two sons, Max and Sam, were his real treasure.\nHis legacy is the example he set for the rest of us: To do all we can with what we have to preserve personal liberty, accept diverse lifestyles, promote justice, allow free markets to function and reserve the personal right to be merciful to those around us.\nI thank my God that I met Aaron Russo and pray for his family in this time of grief and loss.\nOh man, this really sucks. Aaron Russo was a great freedom fighter. His film \u201cAmerica: From Freedom To Fascism\u201d inspired millions. I heard that he was planning to make a part 2 of it. Too bad that he won\u2019t get to do that now.\nUnfortunately I never got a chance to meet Aaron Russo in person, but I did get to speak to him on the phone once during a Freedom Force International ( http://www.freedom-force.org ) conference call. The subject that we spoke about was the 2008 Presidential election. He said that he was thinking about running as an independent or entering the Republican primary himself, either that, or backing a candidate to run as an independent (he still liked the Libertarian Party, he was just concerned about minor party labels scaring voters away) or in the Republican primary. Either that or he wanted to back a candidate for an independent run or in the Republican primary. The candidate that he most prefered was Ron Paul.\nThanks for everything, Aaron. You will be missed.\nRIP\u2026:(\nRick Fisk says:\nAaron Russo was a servant of freedom. R.I.P.\nPlease pass on my condolences to his family. I never met him but feel like I\u2019ve lost a friend.\nMy deepest condolences to the Russo family; may it comfort you to know that the man you knew and loved touched so many lives and the burden of your loss is shared.\nPhillippe says:\nAaron Russo finally turned his guns (talent) on the right target \u2013 those who had used him and other filmmakers in the past (and still do). Oh, you all didn\u2019t know about this?\nRichard B. Boddie says:\nI was saddened to hear of the passing of Aaron Russo. The liberty movement has lost one of its greatest fighters. Aaron was one of the few remaining \u201creal \u2013 in your face \u2013 fearless libertarians\u201d left in America today. Although not unexpected due to cancer, he and his approach will be missed by many of us who continue in the quest for individual liberty, free markets, and less tyranny from so-called governments.\nAaron Russo leaves an important legacy in movies, politics, and popular culture. From these significant contributions to the world, future freedom fighters have a foundation to carry on our dream of a freer society.\n~ RBB\nJason Gatties says:\nI\u2019m at a loss for words right now. I guess I will simply revert back to my up bringing and say that Mr.Russo is no longer in pain and in a much better place.\nThe opportunities I had to work with Aaron Russo are and will remain some of my most cherished memories.\nAaron was one of my first friends in the freedom movement, starting about 13 years ago \u2014 one of the first people to tell a newcomer \u201cYOU can make a difference\u201d and then push him to do so. I know I\u2019m far from the only person who can say that about him.\nRest in peace, friend. You will be missed and fondly remembered.\nWe never met, but I\u2019ll miss you. Deeply saddened. Rest in peace, my friend.",

Brexit is controversial, to say the least, but it is history going full-circle. After more than sixteen hundred years, Britain will free itself of rule from Europe for the second time. As with most break-ups, it won\u2019t be easy. There will be tears and fighting and lots of red tape. Perhaps an author in a couple thousand years will use it as fodder for a historical saga in the same way I\u2019ve used the Roman invasion of Britain in my own Eboracum stories.\nAll my Eboracum books differ from what is usually found in historical (Roman) fiction and No Turning Back follows the same pattern. Yes, the books stick to the historic facts and are well researched (like most historic fiction); yes, there are conflicts and battles and crises that take place; and yes, there are complicated relationships and individual stories and a certain amount of romance. However, the characters\u2019 stories are told with a pragmatic, realistic edge to them, to which you, reader, can ready relate. There are no stalwart heroes, no nasty, evil villains, but more the average person(s) for the most part \u2013 people like ourselves who struggle to get things done despite our flaws and idiosyncrasies and the odd \u2018screw up.\u2019 I feel that my characters are people you might still know today: people who mess up, and have their plans go awry; women who have moods and minds of their own; and men who are just as likely to go sideways as forward. The results often take place with that dark, ironic humour that surpasses time.\nThe ebook version of Eboracum, No Turning Back is available now. It was just released today. I hope you\u2019ll download a copy, curl up in a corner and spend time with some people in the past. They might have different names and hygiene habits but they\u2019re just like you and me. As well, while you\u2019re being entertained, you\u2019re also getting a history lesson and learning about Eboracum\u2026York\u2026my home town.\nEboracum, No Turning Back is also available in hardcopy and can be ordered by clicking here.

ThistleWeb talks about the current copyright cartel thinking in how it affects musicians. The same people who claim to speak on behalf of artists, lobby to enshrine laws supposedly for the artists. He talks through the process of starting a band and how often these laws crop up forcing the next generation of musicians to spend a LOT of money to stay legal, or be criminalized. Staying legal means coughing up to maintain the status quo.\nHe ends with a brief comparison of how things can work under a Creative Commons license.\nHe forgot to mention the parallels with the Musicians Guild in Discworld by Terry Pratchett, who send the assassins in to deal with people who think they can play music without being paid members of the Guild.\nComment #1 posted on 2010-12-15T13:22:27Z by arfab\nYou made some really important points here.\nI would just like to add that IMHO, in an ideal world where music is all creative commons to some degree or another, the likelihood is that there would be an increase in attendance at live gigs because there you could see an artist give a unique performance of their work. More importantly it would mean that in order to obtain popularity and artist would actually need to be good at what they do, so the quality of popular music in general would go up, maybe at the cost of the typical manufactured group that are marketed for their looks rather than their talent as musicians.\nOn a side note, if there was greater demand for live musicians with high quality backing bands then I'd be making a mint!! :)\nComment #2 posted on 2010-12-15T20:25:43Z by klaatu\ni agree with arfab's comment; cc music would absolutely increase attendance. I'd LOVE to hear some of my favourite bands covering songs by other bands. Heck there are songs that I really like and just can't listen to because I hate the way its author performs them. So, yeah, sharing would be great. But alas, until CC dominates, this will not happen.",

God K is commonly referred to as Bolon Tzacab and K'awiil or Kauil.

In the original film trilogy, Han and his co-pilot, Chewbacca, became involved in the Rebel Alliance's struggle against the Galactic Empire. During the course of the Star Wars story, he becomes a chief figure in the Alliance and succeeding galactic governments. Star Wars creator George Lucas described the character as \"a loner who realizes the importance of being part of a group and helping for the common good\".[2] Harrison Ford portrayed the character in the original Star Wars trilogy as well as The Force Awakens\nThe Hebrew term Abaddon (Hebrew: \u05d0\u05b2\u05d1\u05b7\u05d3\u05bc\u05d5\u05b9\u05df\u200e\u200e, '\u01cd\u1e07add\u014dn), and it has two Greek equivalents Apollyon (Greek: \u1f08\u03c0\u03bf\u03bb\u03bb\u03cd\u03c9\u03bd, Apollyon) as a person/being but as a place/time is called \u03a4\u03ac\u03c1\u03c4\u03b1\u03c1\u03bf\u03c2 Tartaros, appears in the Bible as name of place/time or personification/incarnation of destructive nature. In the Hebrew Bible, Abaddon often appears alongside the place \u05e9\u05d0\u05d5\u05dc (sheol), meaning the realm of the dead. In the New Testament Book of Revelation, an angel called Abaddon is described as the king of an army of locusts; his name is first transcribed in Greek (Revelation 9:11\u2014\"whose name in Hebrew is Abaddon, The Angel of Death.\" (\u1f08\u03b2\u03b1\u03b4\u03b4\u1f7c\u03bd)\nPoseidon (/p\u0259\u02c8sa\u026ad\u0259n, p\u0252-, po\u028a-/;[1] Greek: \u03a0\u03bf\u03c3\u03b5\u03b9\u03b4\u1ff6\u03bd, pronounced [pose\u035ced\u0254\u0301\u035c\u0254n]) was one of the Twelve Olympians in ancient Greek religion and myth. He was god of the Sea and other waters; of earthquakes; and of horses.[2] In pre-Olympian Bronze Age Greece, he was venerated as a chief deity at Pylos and Thebes.[2]\nPoseidon was protector of seafarers, and of many Hellenic cities and colonies. In Homer's Iliad, Poseidon supports the Greeks against the Trojans during the Trojan War. In the Odyssey, during the sea-voyage from Troy back home to Ithaca, the Greek hero Odysseus provokes Poseidon's fury by blinding his son the Cyclops Polyphemus, resulting in Poseidon punishing him with storms, the complete loss of his ship and companions, and a ten-year delay. Poseidon is also the subject of a Homeric hymn. In Plato's Timaeus and Critias, the island of Atlantis was Poseidon's domain.[3][4][5] His Roman equivalent is Neptune.\nThe donkey or ass (Equus africanus asinus)[1][2] is a domesticated member of the horse family, Equidae. The wild ancestor of the donkey is the African wild ass, E. africanus. The donkey has been used as a working animal for at least 5000 years. There are more than 40 million donkeys in the world, mostly in underdeveloped countries, where they are used principally as draught or pack animals. Working donkeys are often associated with those living at or below subsistence levels. Small numbers of donkeys are kept for breeding or as pets in developed countries.\nA male donkey or ass is called a jack, a female a jenny or jennet;[3][4][5] a young donkey is a foal.[5] Jack donkeys are often used to mate with female horses to produce mules; the biological \"reciprocal\" of a mule, from a stallion and jenny as its parents instead, is called a hinny.\nElyon (Biblical Hebrew \u05e2\u05dc\u05d9\u05d5\u05df; Masoretic \u02bfEly\u014dn) is an epithet of the God of the Israelites in the Hebrew Bible. \u02be\u0112l \u02bfEly\u014dn is usually rendered in English as \"God Most High\", and similarly in the Septuagint as \"\u039f \u0398\u0395\u039f\u03a3 \u039f \u03a5\u03a8\u0399\u03a3\u03a4\u039f\u03a3\" (\"God the highest\").\nCan I get a \"Yo, N!\"\nhow bout...

His other attributes were fire, mountains, wind, the oak, iris, eagle, firmament (in Indo-European languages, this was joined with the notion of the sky of stone[2]), horses and carts, weapons (the hammer, axe (Axe of Perun), and arrow), and war. He was first associated with weapons made of stone and later with those of metal.\nYoda is a fictional character in the Star Wars franchise created by George Lucas, first appearing in the 1980 film The Empire Strikes Back. In the original films, he trains Luke Skywalker to fight against the Galactic Empire. In the prequel films, he serves as the Grand Master of the Jedi Order and as a high-ranking general of Clone Troopers in the Clone Wars. Following his death in Return of the Jedi at the age of 900, Yoda was the oldest living character in the Star Wars franchise in canon, until the introduction of Maz Kanata in Star Wars: The Force Awakens.\nJean-Luc Picard is a fictional Starfleet Officer in the Star Trek franchise, most often seen as the Captain of the starship USS Enterprise-D. He appears in the television series Star Trek: The Next Generation (TNG), the feature films Star Trek Generations (1994), Star Trek: First Contact (1996), Star Trek: Insurrection (1998), and Star Trek: Nemesis (2002), and numerous associated media.

Jackson made to the Rocky Mountains in 1924 was a natural extension of their ongoing exploration of Canada\u2019s many landscapes. Jackson had painted near Mount Robson for the Canadian Northern Railway in 1914, and in 1924 he was not any more enthused about the mountains than he had been then. But for Harris the trip was a first encounter with the mountains - a subject and experience he would paint and interpret over three decades.\nThe artists spent August and early September sketching in Jasper Park, walking from Jasper Lodge to Maligne Lake. \u201cWe camped at the south end of Maligne Lake on a wide delta of gravel,\u201d Jackson wrote in the January 1925 issue of The Canadian Forum. \u201cRound about were vast piles of crumbling mountains that crowded in the cold green, silt-coloured water of the lake.\u201d\nHarris painted a number of sketches on and around Maligne Lake on this trip. These sketches measured approximately 10 \u00bd x 14 inches. Later, in 1925, Harris started painting on panels approximately 12 x 15 inches. As in the sketch for the 1924 canvas Maligne Lake, Jasper Park (in the collection of the National Gallery of Canada, #3541), Harris has situated himself at one end of the lake looking across the water to the mountains. But Mount Unwin and Charlton - Maligne Lake, Jasper does not provide a characteristic foreground footing for the viewer. The centralized composition is dominated by the mountains that float in the middle of the panel, their forms reflected in the calm waters. The light is clear though overcast, the forms sharp. The flowing rhythms swoop up to the central peak and into the clouds above.\nFrom the mid-1930s, the bulk of Harris\u2019s output consisted of abstractions, yet he also painted landscapes following his move to Vancouver in 1940. Most are painted on Masonite and were based on oil sketches painted between 1918 and 1931. Mount Unwin and Charlton was worked up in a canvas entitled Mountain, Maligne Lake, in the collection of the Vancouver Art Gallery, that Harris exhibited with the British Columbia Society of Fine Arts in April 1951. The canvas is largely faithful to the sketch, though the clouds are more stylized, and the colour contrasts less sharp and more flat. As Lisa Christensen has noted, the still waters of the sketch have been stirred by a soft breeze in the canvas.\nIf Harris\u2019s landscapes of the 1940s and 1950s seem at odds with his abstracts, a circa 1949 drawing entitled Study for Mountain, Maligne Lake, in the collection of the Vancouver Art Gallery (#85.19), after Mount Unwin and Charlton and not for Mountain, Maligne Lake, shows how, in fact, the two were intimately connected. In the drawing Harris delineated the silhouettes of Mount Unwin and Charlton, the sloping hills that enter the composition centre left and right, and the line of the clouds skirting the tops of the peaks, but curving lines in the water create a whole new rhythm that he would develop in Nature Rhythms (in the collection of the National Gallery of Canada, #17160), which Harris was working on at the same time. The artist described Nature Rhythms in his 1954 publication Abstract Painting: A Disquisition as an abstract painting \u201cin which the forces of nature work together in a continuous movement of harmonious formation\u201d - the perfect caption for Mount Unwin and Charlton - Maligne Lake, Jasper.\nWe thank Charles C.

        "title": "Reading Football Club News: December 2018",
        "raw_content": "Reading Football Club News: December 2018\nMixed Emotions As Middlesbrough Win - Report\nIt was a day of mixed emotions for Reading fans as they watched their team frustratingly lose a game in which their performance deserved at least a point. A relatively small crowd found their voices as The Royals young team found their feet and dominated the second half of game they might easily have won. A typically physical and unimaginative Tony Pulis side, aided by some dubious refereeing, kept Reading at bay, and then took advantage of a defensive lapse late in the game to snatch all three points. Results elsewhere went Reading's way keeping them out of the bottom three. Shortly after the final whistle news broke of the appointment of Jose Gomes as the new manager rendering any analysis of Scott Marshall's recent run of one point from three games irrelevant.\nMatch Report and Opinion: Reading 0 Middlesbrough 1\nGomes Confirmed As Manager - Gibbs, Beasant Sacked\nReading confirmed the arrival of Jose Gomes as first team manager this evening. Gomes was widely expected to be announced as Paul Clement's replacement during the week but his arrival was delayed while Reading agreed compensation with his previous club Portuguese side Rio Ave. There remains a big mystery on why Reading were so set on Gomes - and he leaves his previous club without a win in five matches. Gomes has struggled to hold down any first team managers job for any length of time and has a very non-descript record as he comes to Reading. Gomes was announced immediately after Scott Marshall took charge of the Royals for the last time as they were beaten 0-1 at home by Middlesbrough.\nMarshall will now return to the Under 23 team where he has enjoyed huge success as manager. His record as caretaker will show a single point from three league games and he passes control over to Gomes, with Reading out of the relegation positions only on goal difference. However the defeat against Middlesbrough was harsh on the Royals as another goal late in the game denied Reading at least a point. With further injuries to what might have been his first choice eleven, Marshall put more faith in his young players. Gabriel Osho stepped up into the centre of defence and made a very impressive debut as Reading showed pace, and confidence to start attacking moves out of defence.\nMiddlesbrough came to Reading as a team chasing promotion but it was the home side that looked the better side in the first half. It was only after the break that Middlesbrough started to look dangerous. After failing to trouble the Royals in the first half the late goal almost felt inevitable again - such is the luck of a side at the wrong end of the table. Middlesbrough's 77th minute winner could have been followed up by another as Reading faded out when they had looked good to get something out of the game earlier on.\nShortly after Gomes was confirmed as manager, the club confirmed that assistant managers and coaches Nigel Gibbs and Karl Halabi had been sacked. Goalkeeping coach Dave Beasant also has left the club as Jose Gomes brings in his new staff. Gibbs spent seven years at Reading from 2006 and only returned earlier this year to join Paul Clement. It is very disappointing to see the club immediately dispose of his services. Dave Beasant had been with the club for over 3 years and had done excellent recent work with Jaakkola. With the recent return of Nigel Howe, it is huge changes at all levels of management at the club and all the way down to the coaching staff.\nGomes leaves Rio Ave after winning 5 of his 16 games in charge, which is better than the 1 out of 13 games he won while manager of Baniyas in Abu Dhabi. Nigel Howe however is confident in his record: \"He brings new energy, excitement and impetus to Reading and, importantly, he boasts a reputation of creating winning teams with an exciting brand of football. We have been able to secure the services of a manager with a very impressive reputation in his native Portugal.\"\nIt is a big step into the unknown with the new management team - and no one knows which direction we might be heading. What seems certain is that Gomes has a lot to prove to the Reading fans and will have to get off to a good start. Reading travel to Millwall on Boxing Day to play the team one place below them in the table in what should be an interesting introduction to life in the Championship for Gomes. The simple fact is that if Reading are defeated they will be in huge trouble in the bottom three and Gomes will have an epic job ahead of him to save his new club dropping into League One.\nMarshall Set To Take Third Game As Caretaker\nReading are set to remain under the management of caretaker boss Scott Marshall this Saturday as they entertain Middlesbrough at the Madejski Stadium. With Reading still to appoint a new manager, Marshall will take his third game in charge hoping to avoid overseeing his Reading team drop into the relegation positions at Christmas. The Royals are currently outside of the bottom three on goal difference only, and both Millwall and Bolton could overtake Reading if they pick up more points than Reading. Millwall head to Stoke City tomorrow before facing Reading at The Den on Boxing Day in what is a real six pointer. Meanwhile, Bolton, a point behind the Royals travel to strugglers Brentford. Bolton are on a run of 12 games without a win to heap the pressure on former Reading midfielder Phil Parkinson.\nParkinson was a firm favourite to leave Bolton and take the vacant managers position at Reading until Jose Gomes was approached by Reading earlier this week. Gomes is understood to be willing to come to Reading but contracts are yet to be agreed. Rio Ave are still negotiating compensation for the possible departure of their manager who is without a win in six games - a run in which his side have conceded three goals per game on average. The capture of Gomes as manager appears to be a costly and time consuming task to secure a manager who fails to tick the boxes as someone ready to fight relegation into League One. Why Reading FC are so fixed on Gomes, despite the costs and risks, is unknown. We would have to assume someone at the club is confident that Gomes is the man to turn Reading's fortunes around and guide us up the table.\nMiddlesbrough fans are almost as unhappy as follows of Reading after seeing their automatic promotion push fizzle out with a run of just two points from four league games, followed by an embarrassing 0-1 home defeat against League One Burton Albion in the League Cup this week. Reading of course are on a run of six league games without a win. The Royals came close last weekend but failed to pick up the three points at Rotherham after the Millers grabbed a late equaliser. The two teams form may be similar, but the difference is that Middlesbrough are still inside the play-off positions and will remain favourites to return to winning ways at the expense of the Royals.\nJon Dadi Bodvarsson will be expected to play after playing for the Under 23s in the week, although he may still start from the bench. Vito Mannone also appeared in that match but is unlikely to displace Jaakkola who should retain his starting place in goal after some excellent recent performances. Tom McIntyre made his first team default last weekend in that draw at Rotherham and will be hoping to retain his place and make his first senior appearance in front of his home fans.\nRecent Meetings With Middlesbrough\nReading Expected To Announce Jose Gomes\nReading appear set to confirm the appointment of Portuguese Jose Gomes as team manager, following the sacking of Paul Clement two weeks ago. After a number of names being linked with the role, including former club legend and now Bolton manager Phil Parkinson, the club appear to be going for a man virtually unknown in England.\nA comparison of Clement and Gomes would appear to make Paul Clement a much better bet as Reading manager, but should Gomes be named manager then, despite the doubts, he would initially get the support of Reading fans. It's hard not to feel disappointed both by the departure of Clement, when there were promising signs, and the possible appointment of Gomes. Obviously time will tell but it feels like there may well be further tough times ahead for Reading fans.\nRumours have been circulating all week that Jose Gomes had been offered the role. He became the favourite with book makers early in the week after he confirmed that he had been spoken with Reading. The week has been spent negotiating a settlement with Gomes' current club Rio Ave, and Reading have increased their offer which is now believed to be one million Euros.\nGomes stated earlier in the week that he wished to stay with his current club, but he may have found the financial offer too good to turn down. His managerial record is mixed. Rio Ave are sixth in the table and started the season well but their form has dropped off and they have picked up just two points from their last five league games. As well as his poor recent league form he may have finished his work at Rio Ave with a 2-5 defeat against Sporting Lisbon in the Portuguese Cup. There is also the issue that he has jumped around so many different clubs during his career and has a massive list of managerial jobs despite being just 48 years old.\nHe has been assistant at Porto, Malaga and Panathinaikos, before spending just over a year in Hungary. He managed two sides in Saudi Arabia between 2014 and 2016 before a four month spell at Baniyas in the United Arab Emirates. While at Baniyas he managed just a single win and a draw from 13 matches in charge. He returned to his former club Al-Taawoun as a result but his record there was much worse than his previous spell in charge and he lasted just over a year before moving on again and back to Portugal to manager Rio Ave.\nLate Rotherham Goal As Points Shared\nReading caretaker boss Scott Marshall remains without a win after his second game in charge ended in a frustrating 1-1 draw at fellow strugglers Rotherham United. After last week's 0-2 home defeat to Sheffield United, where Reading were very much second best, Marshall opted to make a few changes to the trip to Rotherham who were 3 points ahead of the Royals. Twenty year old Tom McIntyre, obviously very well known to Marshall, made his first team debut in defence. Up front youngster Danny Loader was back on the bench with Baldock making a start.\nThe Royals started strongly and were much the better side in the opening half. The choice of Baldock up front paid off inside the opening ten minutes. After sending an early effort just wide of the post it wasn't long before he was on the scoresheet. Minutes later a great pass from Sims into the area set Baldock up and he finished well to give Reading an early lead. It was Reading's first goal away from home since our 1-2 defeat at Birmingham in the middle of October.\nBaldock continued to look dangerous and could have doubled Reading's lead before half time, putting one just over the crossbar and missing the target when he really should have done better. Sims, who had a decent game, nearly scored but his effort found the post, and the impressive Swift saw his goalbound shot well saved by the Rotherham keeper. Last weekend Reading failed to register a single shot on target, so this could definitely be seen as improvement.\nHowever, the match flipped around after the half time break as Reading began to hang on. Jaakkola was again in good form with some good saves to prevent the equaliser. With Reading set to collect a rare three points the inevitable goal came with a minute left to play when Mattock scored from close range with little resistance from the Reading defence. It could have been worse when Rotherham put the ball just wide in stoppage time.\nThe point was enough to take the Royals out of the bottom three - above Millwall on goal difference. Reading travel to Millwall on Boxing Day in a match where they must avoid defeat. Before that we face sixth placed Middlesbrough at the Madejski Stadium next weekend.\nRotherham United 1 Reading 1\nMarshall Takes Team To Rotherham\nScott Marshall will remain in temporary charge of the first team as they travel to Rotherham United this Saturday, in what is a relegation six pointer. The Royals, currently in the bottom three, would jump out of the relegation positions and above Rotherham if they can take all three points from the game.\nDespite sacking Paul Clement almost out of the blue, the club management have been unable to find a replacement since last weekend's disappointing home defeat at the hands of Sheffield United. Plenty of names have been linked with the Royals but there has been no definite news as to who will be brave enough to take on the challenge of preventing Reading dropping into League One. Former Reading favourite Phil Parkinson, currently at Bolton and a place behind Reading, remains the favourite but there is nothing to suggest he will leave his current club for what would be a sidewise move to a club in trouble.\nLuis Castro, the early favourite for the job, publicly stated he was not interested, but remains in the top three at most bookmakers. Gareth Ainsworth, who is currently enjoying some success with League One side Wycombe Wanderers has moved up to second favourite. However, Ainsworth is saying all the right things to keep Wycombe fans happy and it's difficult to see why you wouldn't be able to take his comments as face value: \"I am flattered to be linked with a Championship club like Reading and, like any manager from the lower leagues, of course I want to manage at a higher level. However, I am very happy to continue to be Wycombe manager and whether the links are hearsay or not, I am very happy to be here. I love being manager of this football club and I am hoping to continue here for as long as possible.\"\nSlavisa Jokanovic, Steve Bruce, and Graeme Murty remain contenders, but the reality appears to be that Reading are no closer to securing their next manager.\nMeanwhile, Marshall will be focused on the trip to Rotherham and the need to avoid defeat at the very least. There has been some rare good news for Reading fans with both Jon Dadi Bodvarsson and Yakou Meite expected to be close to making a return to action. With Reading struggling for goals, both are key players who have already found the net in decent proportions for their time on pitch this season. Reading failed to register an attempt on goal last Saturday and will be hoping for better things. Danny Loader continues to look likely up front and a real prospect but will hopefully be joined up front by Meite who can supply the strength to compliment his play.\nRotherham also have players returning from injury and will be hoping to go one better than their last two home games that both finished as 2-2 draws.\nParkinson New Favourite For Manager Job\nFormer Reading midfielder Phil Parkinson is emerging as the favourite to become the next Reading FC manager after the sacking of Paul Clement last week. Parky, a firm fans favourite from his playing days, is currently manager of Championship strugglers Bolton Wanderers - one of only two sides below Reading in the Championship table. Parkinson is now evens with the bookmakers after the previous favourite, Portuguese manager of Vitoria de Guimaraes, Luis Castro distanced himself from the vacant position at Reading.\nThose who put their money on Castro when it seemed a done deal will obviously be regretting that after he said he planned to stay at his current club to continue his progress there - and perhaps wait until a better offer comes along. With Nigel Howe back in charge at the club, he could well now turn to managers known from their time at Reading, such as Parkinson. Former Rangers boss Graeme Murty is also still high up on the list of possibilities at 22/1 - you can also try an online betting code. Steve Bruce was the early favourite before Castro and remains towards the top at 9/1.\nParkinson has had a mixed managerial career. Starting at Colchester United he earned them an unexpected promotion to the Championship. He then opted to move to Hull City on the back of his repuation and a promising young manager. That turned into a mistake as he lasted just 24 games and only managed to pick up 5 wins during his time at the club. He picked up his career as number two to former Reading manager Alan Pardew at Charlton. After Pardew left the club Parkinson become number one but oversaw a relegation to League One. After failing to earn promotion the next season Parkinson was sacked the following January.\nHis next job at Bradford City was where Parkinson hit the headlines for guiding Bradford, a League Two club into the League Cup final. His team beat Arsenal on penalties before a victory over two legs against Premier League Aston Villa took them to Wembley for the final. He went on to enjoy more cup success including a run to the FA Cup quarter-finals that was only ended by Reading at the Madejski Stadium. Parkinson's 274 games in charge at Bradford City saw him pick up 101 wins, 86 draws and 87 defeats.\nBolton have struggled with life in the Championship under Parkinson, and narrowly avoided the drop last season. However Parkinson has retained his job due to his past success with the club. After arriving at Bolton in the summer of 2016 he went on to have an impressive first season when he took them out of League One as runners up. During that season he was awarded manager of the month three times. Reading fans have already commented that Parkinson could be the right man to get us promoted out of League One should we be relegated, but question if he is the best choice for a relegation right - although he successfully avoided the drop last season. Should Parkinson be named manager he would certainly be given the full support of Reading fans due to his status at the club from his playing days.\nThe sacking of Clement, just two days before our league match against Sheffield United, now seems even stranger with no new manager lined up to replace him. It already felt the club was in turmoil but with Clement just 9 months into his role, and things starting to gradually improve on the pitch, the timing of his removal just feels wrong. Reading went on to fade badly in their game against the Blades and the 0-2 defeat was a fair score in a match played in front of just 12,000 spectators. That the club sent Clement marching with no immediate plans to replace him is incredibly frustrating. Reading are deep in relegation trouble and every point counts, and it feels like we threw away the chance of getting any last Saturday by unnecessarily rocking the boat.\nLight At The End Of The Tunnel Extinguished\nJust when there were encouraging signs of progress on the pitch, with some improved performances in recent weeks, the owners of Reading Football Club stepped in re-appointing former CEO Nigel Howe and presumably approved his decision to sack manager Paul Clement in his first twenty four hours in post. The consequences of such a pre-meditated ill-advised and decision was plain to see in the disastrous outcome on the pitch today. After a run of five tough matches had produced six points, some excellent goals and only one narrow away defeat to high flying Leeds United, caretaker manager Scott Marshall was thrust into his new role with insufficient time to prepare his team for yet another tough game against a team chasing promotion. Following a bright first half, Reading faded badly after the interval and were completely outplayed by United before conceding two late goals.\nMatch Report: Reading 0 Sheffield United 2\nAll Change As Reading Face Sheffield United\nCaretaker managers Scott Marshall and Nigel Gibbs face a tough challenge this Saturday evening as the Royals face sixth placed Sheffield United at the Madejski Stadium for a 5:30pm kick-off. Reading go into the game without a permanent manager and without a \"Sporting Director\" director after Gianluca Nani followed Paul Clement out of the door. With Nigel Howe returning as Chief Executive of the club it's been big changes in all areas of the management team as the owners look to shake up a club in decline and facing a relegation battle. Clement lasted nine months at the club while Nani lasted just three as the revolving door keeps on spinning at the Madejski Stadium.\nOnce again our next manager will know they will have very limited time to work miracles before they will find themselves looking for a new position. Rumours continue to fly around on who will be brave enough to take on the role. The early favourites are Steve Bruce, Luis Castro and Slavisa Jokanovic.\nSteve Bruce has had a long management career with spells at Sheffield United, Huddersfield, Wigan, Crystal Palace, Birmingham, Sunderland, Hull and Aston Villa. In 2012 his Hull City team were promoted to the Premier League in his first season in charge. With Villa struggling in the Championship Bruce came in with some success in his second season - taking them to the play off final but losing out on promotion to Fulham. Bruce was sacked in October 2018 after a bad run saw his home supporters turn on him during a 3-3 draw against bottom side Preston.\nLike everyone else we knew nothing about Luis Castro, who is current manager of Vitoria de Guimaraes in Portugal after having spells at Porto. He is a current favourite after reports his agent has already had conversations with the club about the vacant manager's role.\nSlavisa Jokanovic was on the winning side of that 2018 play-off final. Bruce lost his opportunity to manager Aston Villa in the Premier League and instead Jokanovic took his Fulham side up during his third season at the club. As expected Fulham struggled in the top tier and as a result Jokanovic was dismissed.\nFormer Reading players Graeme Murty and Phil Parkinson are also considered possible contenders. Murty had a mixed spell as Rangers manager last season and Phil Parkinson's stay at Bolton continues despite pressues over finance and league position at the club. The return of either of those former players would receive mixed feelings from the fans. They would obviously be welcomed back, but it would be a shame to harm their reputations in what would be a brutal job as team manager.\nWith Sheffield United the visitors Scott Marshall might feel he has little to lose on Saturday as the visitors will be favourites for the win. However, their position in the table hides a run of eight games with just two wins. United have 5 points from their last 5 games. Meanwhile the Royals have 6 points from their last 5 fixtures. Yet, talk is still of promotion for the Blades, while the Royals dump their manager amid relegation fears. It's a funny old game.\nRecent Meetings With Sheffield United\n27 February 2018 Championship Sheff Utd (HOME) L: 1-3 Read report...\n21 October 2017 Championship Sheff Utd (Away) L: 1-2 Read report...\n26 January 2010 Championship Sheff Utd (Away) L: 0-3 Read report...\n22 August 2009 Championship Sheff Utd (HOME) L: 1-3 Read report...\n15 November 2008 Championship Sheff Utd (Away) W: 2-0 Read report...\n20 January 2007 Premiership Sheff Utd (HOME) W: 3-1 Read report...\n16 September 2006 Premiership Sheff Utd (Away) W: 2-1 Read report...\nUnder 23 Manager Marshall Gets Caretaker Role\nReading Under 23 manager Scott Marshall will take temporary charge of the first team, working alongside Nigel Gibbs, following the departure of Paul Clement who was sacked this morning. Marshall and Gibbs lead training this morning as the team prepare for Saturday's visit of Sheffield United to the Madejski Stadium. The success of Reading's U23 side is well known, with his team going on a 14 match unbeaten run. Marshall will know plenty of the first team squad well with some of his players starting to get regular first team action under Paul Clement before he was shown the door.\nMarshall arrived at Reading in September 2017 after spending nine years at Arsenal as a player. After moving to Wycombe, he then took a coaching role at the club before coaching at Brentford and then overseas in Oman. After taking charge of the U21 development squad at Norwich City he became assistant at Aston Villa in 2013. It was while at Aston Villa he managed a single match as caretaker boss - a 2-1 FA Cup victory over Leicester City in February 2015. If he can replicate his previous single game success as caretaker manager on Saturday and get a win it would only be Reading's fifth league win of the season so far.\nMarshall is unlikely to be inline for the permanent job at this stage. The timing of Clement's sacking, with things starting to pick up at the club, suggests that someone must already be on their radar as a replacement.\nPaul Clement Gets The Sack\nPaul Clement has been sacked as Reading manager in what comes as a shock announcement from the club this morning. Clement's dismissal comes just a day after former Vice Chairman Nigel Howe was appointed as Chief Executive on a permanent basis.\nReading fans were starting to think a corner had been turned with a reasonable set of recent results after a poor start to the season. It was widely expected that Clement would be given more time to turn things around. His sacking follows a run of just a single defeat in the last five game. That defeat was a narrow 0-1 reverse at Leeds United, where we missed a late penalty which would have shared the points. It is obviously a very fine line between success and failure as a football league manager.\nClement arrived at Reading in March this year with the club already in steady decline following a disappointing follow up to an appearance at Wembley in the play-off final the season before. Under the charge of Jaap Stam the football had become stale, crowds, like our league position were starting to drop, and a change was clearly needed. Clement was unable to stop that decline in his limited time at the club.\nUnfortunately for Clement his time in charge at Reading will go down as one of the worst records of any Reading manager. His thirty games in charge returned 7 wins, 8 draws and 15 defeats. Despite that poor record, Clement was turning into a popular character with his honest assessments of both his and the teams performance.\nSome will be pleased the club have acted quickly in making a change - the Championship table does not lie. However, many will believe chopping and changing the manager so frequently does nothing for the stability of the club, and it is disappointing he wasn't given more time in charge. We can only assume the management of the club already have strong plans in place for Clement's successor.\nClub Statement:\nClement's Departure: Table as it stood on 06 December 2018\nPl HW HD HL HF HA AW AD AL AF AA GD POINTS\n19 Hull 20 2 3 5 7 11 3 2 5 12 17 -9 20\n20 Rotherham 20 4 5 1 14 11 0 3 7 5 19 -11 20\n21 READING 20 3 2 5 16 15 1 4 5 10 17 -6 18\n22 Millwall 20 4 3 3 16 14 0 3 7 8 19 -9 18\n23 Bolton 20 2 2 6 6 14 2 4 4 7 12 -13 18\n24 Ipswich 20 0 6 4 9 15 1 2 7 8 20 -18 11\nThere has not been much to shout about over the past eighteen months for the Royals after their play-off Final defeat against Huddersfield Town. Near relegation and turmoil in the boardroom has left the club in a mess. After Chief Executive Ron Gourlay's departure, could there be light at the end of this dark tunnel at Reading Football Club?\nAndy Rinomhota and Danny Loader have both been given chances recently. This might be the start of forming a club identity that is known for putting faith in academy players. There are few things that are more satisfying in football than seeing 'one of your own' going on to make first team appearances for the club.\nI have been incredibly impressed with Rinomhota, being signed from non-league side AFC Portchester. His energy and forward runs have been incredibly encouraging for the fans. His superb televised performance at Elland Road against Leeds United emphasised this. This signing is proving to be a real coup by Reading, a 2005-06-eque signing. We had several cheap gems that we unearthed in that season, including Kevin Doyle, Shane Long and Stephen Hunt. Danny Loader is another youngster who has recently been included in the first team. Featuring regularly for England at youth level, he has the potential to go on and make himself a big name in the footballing world if he carries on his rapid development.\nBoth Rinomhota and Loader did not look out of their depth at Championship level, and this is something that could encourage Paul Clement to put even more faith in youth. We are clearly proud of our academy system, having a category one status and seeing a number of former graduates go on to play in the Premier League. This pride was emphasised on Saturday with the unveiling of an academy board, displaying all the academy graduates that have gone on to make a senior appearance for the first team.\nOne of the most exciting things about this academy board is the fact that there is more room on the display for more players to go on and make it to the first team, providing an inspiration to the younger players who have not yet had the honour to play a senior game. Scottish youth international Tom McIntyre was on the bench for the Royals after injuries to Paul McShane, Liam Moore and John O'Shea. He will be hoping to be the next player that makes it on that board.\nWith the departure of Ron Gourlay, Nigel Howe has been re-appointed as the CEO on a temporary basis. Whilst I think we need to move forward, it is reassuring that we have Howe back in charge for the short term, to provide some stability after a rocky eighteen months. He was there on Saturday for the academy display unveiling. Co-majority shareholder Dai Xiu Li was also present at the unveiling. This is very encouraging considering that the owners have been rarely seen since they bought the club back in May 2017. In a club statement from Ms Dai, she stated that herself and Howe will run the club on a day-to-day basis temporarily. It is so reliving to hear that Dai Xi Li has a more hands-on role at the club, at this moment in time. Whether this will continue after the appointment of a new CEO remains to be seen.\nThe release of this club statement was such a small thing, but it makes a huge difference. The fact that the owners are aware that Reading fans need a club statement from them shows that they are interested in taking this club forward now, if they were not already before.\nNow to on the pitch matters, the fact that Reading now have the fighting spirit to come back from a losing position in the dying seconds shows that we have a bit of fight. No matter how poor our squad is at this moment in time, we have the ability to come back to claim crucial points. If we can somehow turn some of these draws in to wins, we could be on course for a more encouraging second half to the season.\nAre we starting to get our club back? Perhaps this is the start of it.\nRoyals Get Manchester United In FA Cup - Again\nReading have been drawn away at Premier League side Manchester United in the third round of the FA Cup. It will be the second time in three seasons that the two sides have met at Old Trafford at this stage of the competition. Our last meeting was very one sided as United cruised to a straight forward 4-0 home victory over Reading. Rooney started the scoring after just seven minutes and from that point there was only going to be one result. Martial added the second and two second half goals from Marcus Rashford ended a disappointing day for the Royals. We will be hoping for better things this time round, but our league form suggests we could be in for another difficult trip up North. The game will take place on the weekend of Saturday 5 January 2019.\nRecent Meetings With Manchester United\n16 March 2013 Premier League Man Utd (Away) L: 0-1 Read report...\n01 December 2012 Premier League Man Utd (HOME) L: 3-4 Read report...\n19 January 2008 Premiership Man Utd (HOME) L: 0-2 Read report...\n12 August 2007 Premiership Man Utd (Away) D: 0-0 Read report...\n30 December 2006 Premiership Man Utd (Away) L: 2-3 Read report...\n23 September 2006 Premiership Man Utd (HOME) D: 1-1 Read report...\nReading and Man Utd - Head to head record (since August 1994)\nGames Between Reading and Man Utd 11\nMan Utd Wins 8\nMan Utd Goals 24\nLate Barrow Goal Earns Point\nA last minute equaliser from Mo Barrow gave Reading a well-deserved point against an in form and very strong City side. Having taken the lead just before half time courtesy of Mark McNulty's first goal for Reading, the Royals lost their way in a disastrous spell after the interval. Sloppy defending provided Afobe with the chance to atone for a missing a sitter early in the game by leveling the scores. A spectacular volley from Ince gave the visitors the lead and they looked likely to push on and win the game comfortably. The introduction of Meite, Baldock and Barrow revitalised a flagging Royals attack. They came close to finding the equaliser on a couple of occasions before Meite set up Barrow for fine finish with very little stoppage time remaining. I think most Reading fans would have settled for a point before what looked to be a very difficult fixture.\nMatch Report: Reading 2 Stoke City 2\n23 December 2018 HNA?",

He set out his manifesto in his very first single \u2018New Song\u2019. The lyrics called on the listener to challenge their preconceived ideas, to see both sides and \u2018throw off your mental chains\u2019. New Song was recently used in a pivotal scene in \u2018Breaking Bad\u2019 where Aaron Paul\u2019s character Jessie Pinkman questions if he wants to \u2018play by the rules\u2019. 'New Song' peaked at number 3 in the UK singles charts.\nHoward\u2019s synthesizer-driven debut influenced a new generation of electronic and dance musicians. Widely regarded as a pioneer of synths such as the Roland Juno 60, Jupiter 8 and Moog Prodigy he has worked with contemporary electronic artists such as Ferry Corsten, Eric Prydz and most recently Cedric Gervais. Howard enjoyed 14 weeks in the billboard dance chart top 40 in 2013 with his collaboration with Cedric on a new version of \u2018Things Can Only Get Better\u2019. Howard continues to operate at the forefront of music technology in both his live shows and productions.\nHoward Jones has earned a reputation within the music industry for pioneering the \u2018independent artist DIY\u2019 approach, developing the essential connection between artist and fans. Howard was the first artist to make a recording of that nights gig available on CD to purchase. The CD would even feature digital artwork of photos taken during the gig. His latest project \u2018Engage\u2019 is entirely music fan funded with money raised via studio visits, the creation of personalised \u2018Piano Solo\u2019s\u2019 composed specifically for fans and a unique \u201carthouse\u201d interactive book.",

Researchers gave one group of veterans with PTSD eight weekly 2.5-hour sessions focused on mindfulness and meditation, as well as a day-long retreat, and compared their progress to their peers who received nine weekly 1.5-hour group sessions designed to address specific problems stemming from PTSD in daily life. | Reuters >>\nVA Launches New No-Cost Training Programs\nThe Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) today launched two new no-cost training programs, Accelerated Learning Programs (ALPs) and VA Learning Hubs, to help transitioning Servicemembers and Veterans from all eras learn skills, earn credentials, and advance in civilian careers following separation from service. | Military.com >>\nVA chief says progress made since 2014 Las Vegas visit\nVeterans Affairs Secretary Robert McDonald returned to Las Vegas Tuesday where he set goals a year ago to restore trust in an agency rocked by scandals. With an audience of a company that hires a relatively high percentage of veterans, he stopped short of grading himself on the goals he announced Aug. 9, 2014, saying, \u201cOver the past year, we\u2019ve made progress but we have more progress to make.\u201d | Las Vegas Review-Journal >>\nThe war in Afghanistan is killing or wounding increasing numbers of civilians, with women and children showing the sharpest rise in casualties as it enters its 14th year, according to new figures from the UN. | The Guardian >>\nThe top U.S. commander in Afghanistan said Tuesday the death of Al Qaeda-linked leader Mullah Omar could drive Taliban fighters into the arms of ISIS \u2013 or to the negotiating table. | Fox News >>\nIn March, President Obama said he would slow the pace of the troop withdrawal from Afghanistan. Initially the White House plan called for cutting the current force of 10,000 in half by 2016. But Obama backed away from that milestone and signaled some or all of those 10,000 might stay next year. | Military Times >>\nAbout 2,550 soldiers with 10th Mountain Division will deploy in the next few months as part of Iraq and Afghanistan troop rotations, the Army announced Wednesday. The largest contingent will come from the division\u2019s Fort Drum, New York-based 1st Brigade Combat Team, which will send about 1,250 soldiers to Iraq to support Operation Inherent Resolve, the military\u2019s ongoing mission to counter the Islamic State group in Iraq and Syria. | Army Times >>\nAn Iraqi police official says a minibus loaded with explosives detonated on a crowded street in Baghdad, killing seven people, including two children. The explosion took place Wednesday in the predominantly Shiite neighborhood of Sadr City. The official says the bomb detonated near the district government office. At least 18 people were wounded in the attack, including four children. | Associated Press >>\nAn ominous photo that an American soldier took during the Iraq War is shaping up to be one of the conflict\u2019s most iconic images for the members of one US Army squadron, according to two veterans writing in The New York Times. | Business Insider >>\nThe Army intends to open all but one field artillery military occupation specialty \u2013 13F fire support specialist \u2013 to female soldiers, a move that would cover 21,000 previously male-only jobs, a Pentagon spokesman said Tuesday. | Stars and Stripes >>\nThe Navy welcomed its \u201cmost lethal weapon\u201d to the fleet Saturday as the attack submarine John Warner was commissioned before a crowd of 2,500.

Ray Odierno. \u201cI think tattoos are something that are more common, and I think we have to realize and understand that, and we have to make sure we get the best people in our Army.\u201d | Army Times >>\nPauley, 39, arrived Monday at George Dunne National, the challenging Cook County Forest Preserve course near Tinley Park, to speak at the World\u2019s Largest Golf Outing. In its fifth year and created by Billy Casper Golf, which manages 26 Chicago-area facilities, the event encompassing 138 courses in 28 states is nearing its goal of raising $1 million for injured servicemen and women. | Chicago Tribune >>\nVeterans are disproportionately represented in the public sector. There are good reasons why, and good effects from it. Any veteran who honorably finishes a term of military service, be that for four years or 20, has paid his or her dues to the country. In spite of this, many veterans, myself included, still find themselves in a public service job in some capacity. While many vets would prefer to never see the inside of a government building ever again, there are some compelling reasons to consider a job in government, be that federal, state, or local. | Task & Purpose >>\nThere is something profound in a soldier\u2019s return home. To have traded at the very least their innocence for the idea of a greater good, many veterans struggle to heal wounds both mental and physical as they try to readjust to everyday life. For some, the presence of family and support organizations is enough to ensure a stable life. But for others, the return home is a battle for which they are simply not prepared. | Moultrie News >>\nThe Baltimore office of the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, once the slowest and most error-prone in the country, has reduced its backlog of disability claims by nearly 60 percent and significantly improved its accuracy, officials said Tuesday. | Baltimore Sun >>\nThe first Iraq war veteran elected to Congress has been tapped by the White House to serve as the new Under Secretary of the Army. Patrick Murphy, a Pennsylvania Democrat who served in the House from 2007 to 2011, was nominated Wednesday to take over the role as part of ongoing leadership changes at the Department of Defense. | Army Times >>\nThe Pentagon\u2019s top contractors sent an army of more than 400 lobbyists to Capitol Hill this spring to press their case for increasing the nation\u2019s spending on military hardware, in a massive effort costing tens of millions of dollars of their own funds from April to June alone, according to an analysis of public lobbying data by the Center for Public Integrity. | TIME >>",

        "raw_content": "You seem a bit upset and frustrated and I\u2019m concerned. I\u2019m sure there are lots of reasons for this, perhaps it\u2019s the challenges of your volunteer role, perhaps actions of others or a perceived lack of respect or just the impact of a heavy time and emotional commitment of being volunteer, parent or player. But we need to stay composed.\nAs volunteers we get involved because the sport needs us to exist and as time goes on there are more challenges, more to be done and many become more involved. That\u2019s a good thing, but now many of us are wearing more than one hat and juggling priorities at home and in the sport. Perhaps everything is not going perfectly and certainly not as well as we would like given the effort we make. To wear multiple hats for this sport is complex and fraught, with its intractable problems, dependencies on things we have little control over, the risks and financial costs.\nAll volunteers make time, emotional, reputational and often financial commitments to their roles and it\u2019s easy for them to become a little demanding as a result. Having high expectations is good, but when it leads to intolerance and aggression it can be destructive. I think we need to accept that different members are at a different point in their hockey journey with varying objectives and understanding of the constraints and challenges of our sport and different willingness to contribute. We need to work with this diversity and find way for the widest possible range of volunteers to have productive and enjoyable roles in the sport. At the very least we should recognise it and act accordingly because most of us are in this sport for the long haul.\nThose that are wearing multiple hats are not power hungry and control obsessed, they are just stepping up to fill roles that are critical to the success of our sport and should be respected and valued and they should know they are respected and valued.\nAs a volunteer with multiple hats it\u2019s easy to feel responsible for everything that\u2019s not perfect in our sport, to fix every problem, to react to every criticism, to fight every battle. Don\u2019t! It\u2019s just not healthy for you or the sport and can lead to some average decisions and quite frankly some burnt bridges. Also remember that as a volunteer, how you interact with others have consequences, potentially positive and negative, intended and unintended but often multiplied the more hats you wear. So, as a multi hat volunteer, be careful, you are a most valuable part of our sport and we don\u2019t want either your effectiveness or your enjoyment to be eroded.\nSo, here are some notes to myself based on reflection as my mistakes and challenges over a decade that I can take on board next time!\nRespect and appreciate volunteers. Look beyond the superficial because they are mostly coming from a good place. Sure, they might be controlling, perhaps a bit more direct than we might expect, but suck it up, and make sure volunteers feel respected and valued.\nRespect the position you hold. What you do can enhance or compromise your position, so you should filter what you say and do. Whether you are a coach, manager, director of a club or IHNSW, your actions are amplified, so be measured and leave the role in good shape when you depart.\nIt\u2019s not a kingdom, just a role, so don\u2019t overstep. Bring others along on the journey, trust them but don\u2019t be afraid to be respectfully frank if things are not going well. Walking on eggshells can be painful and it lets problems fester.\nMake sure you acknowledge the wins you help achieve for the sport and the team who were a part of it. It\u2019s too easy to get bogged down with the problems.\nEnjoy the experience of being involved. So many great people and the best sport in the world\u2026\u2026 it shouldn\u2019t be hard to have a good time.\nA fellow Volunteer",

The copy was then edited by Felicity Carter, editor of Meininger\u2019s Wine Business International.\nThe book, temporarily titled Tasting Victory \u2013 The Life & Wines of the World\u2019s Favourite Sommelier, is a tribute to Basset\u2019s resilience, perseverance and drive to succeed. It culminates with Basset receiving the International Sommelier Association\u2018s Best Sommelier of the World award at the age of 53, on his seventh attempt.\n\u2018Among the many exercises I did was to sit down and reproduce all the wine maps, complete with all the facts,\u2019 wrote Basset in his memoirs. \u2018When I checked my attempts against the original, I would re-do it all over again if I made a single mistake. I got up early every day to practice memory drills and, eventually, I was so exhausted that either my eyes would begin weeping, or I would fall asleep at my desk. But I didn\u2019t stop.\u2019\nWhile the scholarship is still in its infancy stage and details are yet to be outlined, the book is due to be published later this year.

        "raw_content": "All the particle-like properties of matter, including mass, energy, momentum, charge and localization are actually properties of the wave function alone. Wave-particle duality is only a duality in the properties of the wave function.\nThe concept of particles would seem to be a given. From grade school to graduate school we are told that matter is made up of particles\u2014electrons, protons, neutrons, photons. On the other hand, in quantum mechanics there is the idea of wave-particle duality; sometimes matter acts like it is made of particles, sometimes it acts like it is made of waves (the wave function). But what is matter? Is it actually sometimes a particle and then, in different circumstances it becomes a wave?\nTo answer, we start from principle [P3]\u2014one version of reality in the wave function always corresponds exactly to our perceptions. From this result (ignoring our cultural heritage concerning particles), our first hypothesis would be that matter consists of the wave function alone. So we will assume this and then investigate whether there are any observations or experiments that require the existence of particles for their explanation. If there are not, if we find that all the particle-like properties of matter can be explained by properties of the wave function, then the concept of particles is superfluous. In that case, we can presume that matter consists of wave functions alone.\nThere are many experiments that one could use to reputedly show the necessity for particles, but all the arguments depend on just a few properties (which all turn out to be invalid). They are:\n(2) The conservation and addition laws for energy, momentum, spin (angular momentum), and charge were established in classical, particle-based physics so their experimental verification is presumed to imply the existence of particles.\n(5) Because quantum mechanics gives several version of reality, it is presumed that we would perceive several versions of reality if there were no particles.\nParticle-like properties of the wave function. We have seen in the section on Mass, Spin, and Charge that mass, energy, momentum, spin, and charge are properties of the wave function. So property (1) cannot be used to infer the existence of particles. Ditto for property (2). In the section on Localization, we showed that (spread out) wave functions produce perceptually localized effects, so property (3) also cannot be used to infer the existence of particles. The \u2018small part of the wave function\u2019 of property (4) is shown not to hold in the section on Small Parts; each small part carries the full properties. And finally, we have seen from the Classical Perception in Quantum Mechanics section that more than one version of reality cannot be perceived in quantum mechanics. Thus particles are not needed to explain the only-one perception of property (5) either.\nSo we see that all the underlying properties of matter which are used to infer the existence of particles can be explained by the properties of the wave function alone. This means there is no evidence for particles (because the wave function can account for all the particle-like properties).\n[P15] There is no evidence for the existence of particles.\nThe seemingly paradoxical wave-particle duality of matter is resolved by the observation that the wave functions alone can account for both the wave-like and particle-like properties of matter. That is, the wave function has both classical wave-like properties and classical particle-like properties. So the dichotomy is in the properties of the wave function rather than in the \u2018actual nature\u2019 of matter.\nNomenclature. Even though there is no evidence for particles, it is not necessary to give up the very useful names. So we can agree that an \u2018electron\u2019 refers to an electron-like wave function, having mass me, spin , charge, -e; a \u2018proton\u2019 refers to a proton-like wave function, having mass mp, spin , charge, -e; and a \u2018photon\u2019 refers to a photon-like wave function having mass 0, spin 1, and charge 0. But we must keep in mind that these names do not (if there is no collapse) refer to entities that objectively exist in a unique state; there can be several versions of them simultaneously existing in different states.\nRelated experiments. There are several experiments that, if one assumes particles exist, give perplexing results. Bell-like experiments on non-locality seem to show that particles interact instantaneously at a distance. And Wheeler\u2019s delayed-choice experiment and the quantum eraser experiment seem to imply that causality can sometimes work backwards in time. But if one assumes there are no particles, the very peculiar inferences about the nature of reality simply evaporate. In a no-particle world, there is (to the best of my knowledge) no evidence for backwards causality. And while there are non-local effects in quantum mechanics, built into the theory by entanglement (Schr\u00f6dinger\u2019s cat), there is no faster-than-light signaling required to explain the results; it is just quantum mechanics as usual.\n[Next Page, 15.

Larry Bird, President of Basketball Operations for the last nine years, will step down, former team President Donnie Walsh returns as President of Basketball Operations, and Kevin Pritchard will be the General Manager, replacing David Morway, who resigned Tuesday.\n\u201cI fully understand Larry\u2019s decision to step away and can\u2019t thank him enough for what he has done for the Pacers,\u201d said Pacers Owner Herb Simon. \u201cI can\u2019t ask for a better transition at this time than to have Donnie back to work with Kevin in overseeing the basketball side.\u201d\n\u201cI\u2019m going to take some time off and evaluate what I will do in the future,\u201d said Bird. \u201cThis has nothing to do with any conflict or anything else, it\u2019s just time. I considered leaving last year, so this shouldn\u2019t be a surprise. I\u2019m proud of what we\u2019ve accomplished, I like the position this team is in and with Kevin and Donnie, the basketball side won\u2019t miss a beat.\u201d\nWalsh left the Pacers in 2008 to serve as President, Basketball Operations, for the New York Knicks for two years. He was a consultant with the Knicks last season. Walsh was the Pacers\u2019 General Manager from 1986-88 before becoming the franchise president from 1988-2008.\n\u201cAfter discussing this with Herb and Larry, I\u2019m very comfortable in coming back and doing whatever I can to help the Pacers continue their return to prominence in the NBA,\u201d said Walsh. \u201cThis is home in so many ways and I couldn\u2019t be more proud about coming back and being part of this great franchise again.\u201d\nPritchard joined the Pacers prior to last season as Director of Player Personnel. The native Hoosier (born in Bloomington, Ind.) was Portland\u2019s general manager from 2007-10 prior to joining the Pacers.\n\u201cThis is a great opportunity,\u201d said Pritchard. \u201cTo be able to work with someone like Donnie Walsh, whose record with the Pacers and Knicks speaks for itself, and to continue to build on what Larry has done here is a great honor.\u201d\nThere will be no other management changes in Pacers Sports & Entertainment with Simon continuing as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Jim Morris as President and Rick Fuson as Chief Operating Officer.\n(Courtesy of the Indiana Pacers)\nThis entry was posted in Basketball, Indiana.

Shoma A Chatterji traces the narrative that is a stark commentary on development trends within the country.\nSociety Films and Books\nThis is the story of two pioneers. The common thread that binds them is that they are both activists in different ways though distanced by age, gender, class, education and social strata.\nShambhu Prasad Singh was an activist-crusader who fought for his rights and the rights of his fellow-workers and peers till his last breath.\nRanu Ghosh, an acclaimed filmmaker, decided to record this man\u2019s lonely crusade against the gross violation of human rights for posterity and for history in a film that throws up a strong rewriting of the term \u2018development.\u2019\nGhosh had been working on a film project on closed and sick industries in Bengal for CINDIT of New Delhi and shares, \u201cWhile I had earlier worked on voluntary basis and in a sort of activist mode with small, local organisations, this was the first time I was to professionally explore the issues that have always interested and concerned me.\u201d\nQuarter Number 4/11 happened almost by accident while she was working on her Sarai CSDS Fellowship on Change of Industrial Landscape in Kolkata. But while a product of her research, Quarter Number 4/11 also sprung from an ideology that evolved from first-hand experience.\nRanu Ghosh's film Quarter Number 4/11 is a stark portrayal of the human costs of development.\nGhosh used to live in a rented accommodation in the neighbourhood right behind the erstwhile \u2018Usha\u2019 Factory on Prince Anwar Shah Road in Kolkata in 1995. This eventually became the site of a mammoth real estate development named \u2018South City\u2019 \u2013 an upmarket project comprising posh 35-floor residential high-rises and one of the city\u2019s most popular malls today. Subsequently an international school, too, was built at the site.\nIn fact, after the fellowship, during which she made frequent visits to the site of the Usha Factory, Ghosh created an art installation on South City for entry in the European biennale Manifesta-7, 2008 in Italy. \u201cMy installation, completely abstract, was exhibited for 15 days in Italy and I had named my installation Politics of Closure,\u201d she explains.\nWhen Ghosh lived in the particular Kolkata neighbourhood, the Jay Engineering Factory, of which Usha Industries was a unit, still occupied most of the industrial enclave and had not been shut down completely. \u201cThe ancillary units comprised of small workshops, sheds and vendors surrounded the factory and I could see many of them from the terrace of my house,\u201d she recalls.\nShe had already been working on the Calcutta wetlands for a year, observing the changes resulting from construction and real estate development in areas off the Eastern Metropolitan Bypass, including Salt Lake.\n\u201cWhen I began to research the impact of these new constructions on the environment, I was shocked to discover that town planning norms had never included the development of these areas.\u201d As she probed deeper into the government\u2019s urban development plans, she found that many parts of the city that were being developed at a frantic pace were never really meant to be built up in such a way. The sites proposed for development lay in the Howrah region that is on the other side of the river Hooghly!\n\u201cI later learnt from rickshawallahs that the housing complex in which I lived was built on a paddy field and the manicured lawn in which I relaxed was the spot where he cultivated his own paddy crop! So he was forced to pull a rickshaw while his wife worked as a domestic servant,\u201d says a shocked Ghosh.\nAnother bigger shock awaited her as she heard that the Usha Factory had been sold off to the consortium developing South City complex. In 1993, a year before Jyoti Basu, then Chief Minister of West Bengal, announced a new industrial policy aimed at increased investment in the state, Jay Engineering Works had announced that it could not carry on with production anymore. The company produced sewing fans under the brand name Usha.\nEventually, in 2003, they sold off the land on which the factory stood in the southern parts of Kolkata to South City Projects (Kolkata) Limited, a consortium consisting of seven major real estate magnates. This would entail the shunting off of 7000 workers and demolition of their living quarters in exchange for petty compensation.\n\u201cI was shocked because this was in direct conflict with Jyoti Basu\u2019s earlier statement in 1994, when he had declared that the Usha Factory land would be used for constructing the Apollo Hospital and that a pharmaceutical factory would come up there, automatically absorbing the people rendered jobless because of the shutting down of the factory,\u201d says the filmmaker.\nThis formed the context for Ghosh\u2019s film, but the actual project was structured around the perspective of one man, Shambhu Prasad Singh, whom she met in 2006.\nA fighter extraordinaire\nAs the South City real estate project sought to take off, builders evicted the factory workers from their quarters. Shambhu Prasad Singh, along with 13 colleagues, stood his ground. They refused to take forced voluntary retirement and filed a court case demanding respectable compensation. Singh refused to budge from his quarter number 4/11, where he had lived with his family for decades.\nThe late Shambhu Prasad Singh - against the backdrop of the South City highrises in Kolkata. Pic courtesy: Ranu Ghosh\nThe court granted a stay order. But neither electricity nor water was available as the supply lines had been cut off. Singh managed to stay on till 24 December 2008, when the building where his quarter stood was finally razed to make way for what is now a swimming pool!\nSingh continued to fight his case but was reportedly killed in a hit-and-run accident on 14 January 2011, his body having been found on the roadside. His family has moved to Bihar while Ghosh supports his son\u2019s education till today.\nLooking at the man, no one would ever imagine that there was so much spirit, guts and courage lurking behind that simple persona of Shambhu Prasad Singh. He was the quintessential common man who did not reveal a clue to the fact that he was such a fighter.\nWhen Ghosh first met him in his quarters which had still been standing, the modest, decrepit structure presented a visible irony juxtaposed against the 35-storeyed high towers coming up around it. Shambhu was challenging the real estate people and the promoters and the vested interests in a way they had not expected in their wildest dreams.\nThe South City Project as it was being built; the quarters of the Jay Engineering Factory are visible in the centre. Pic courtesy: Ranu Ghosh\n\u201cThe South City Complex is Eastern India\u2019s largest mixed-use real estate development. And here was an ordinary factory worker, Shambhu, standing up to the very forces that were trying to displace him from his own ground,\u201d says Ghosh, almost in awe.\nMost of the workers had quietly accepted the meagre amounts they were given as \u2018compensation\u2019. They also left their quarters. The buildings were dismantled almost immediately.\nJustice eludes Mumbai's homeless\nChildren impacted by forced evictions\nGhosh remembers, \u201cThrough my conversations with others, including women, what emerged was how they had been affected by the strong-arm tactics of the developers. I was witness to the last vestiges of two generations of a community on the brink of oblivion. Most of them were immigrants from neighbouring districts and states and were not able to cope with the changes forced on them. Jobless and homeless, they opted to live in the hutments and shacks surrounding the complex because they were too used to the neighbourhood and did not have either the willingness or the ability to leave it.\u201d\nIn fact, many continue to live there even now in shabby conditions, in the absence of the most basic of amenities. Skilled workers are now caretakers of private property, itinerant vendors, running tiny shops, plying cycle rickshaws, or simply sitting in despondence beside the blocked gates of what is touted as the one of the tallest constructions in this part of the world. \u201cIs this development?\u201d asks Ghosh.\nThe film and its maker\n\u201cQuarter Number 4/11 is a low angle, ground zero perspective of development as seen by a single man being crushed under its weight. It is one man\u2019s lone, losing fight to hold on to the ground where he was born, grew up and earned his living. It is the narrative of a man who was being forced to evacuate his ground to make place for development\u201d says Ghosh.\nThe film, supported by the Asian Cinema Fund, South Korea and Sweden\u2019s Goteborg International Film Festival Fund, has had 17 full-house screenings in Bangalore, at Harvard University, and at MIT and TUFT Universities in the US and till date, 250 screenings all over India.\n\u201cEnvironment and the politics it is born of and breeds is my interest. After graduating with science, I worked for a degree in film-making at London at the TVE. Upon my return, I assisted Soumendu Roy for a few films and then joined Ranjan Palit\u2019s team. I did the lighting for Bangladeshi filmmaker Tareq Masood\u2019s Matir Moyna (The Clay Bird),\u201d she shares.\nGhosh has also made environmental documentaries for BBC such as the Lifeline series and In the Face. She worked for a series called Railways in Monsoon. She then began to make her own films \u2013 Curtain Call, a documentary on a famous stage actress Ketaki Dutta, followed by Like Whirlwinds, an ongoing project funded by TED jointly with Sundance.\nRevolutionary Optimist nominated for the EME Award was a documentary about a self-initiated NGO, Prayasam, created to build leadership values among underprivileged children, who then work in groups to improve the local environment.\n\u201cThrough Quarter Number 4/11, following Shambhu Prasad\u2019s narrative, I have tried to explore the injustice that is built into the apparent \u2018success\u2019 of this metropolis. Every phase of similar \u2018development\u2019 is underwritten by the pain, exploitation and loss of real human beings that are built into their fabric, posing a constant threat to the soaring structures and glittering monuments of modernity,\u201d Ghosh sums up.\nIndeed, the narrative that Ranu Ghosh has so vividly captured in her film is a telling commentary on the increasing gentrification in the country, a general term used to describe the arrival of wealthier people in an existing urban district, a related increase in rents and property values, and changes in the district's character and culture.\nThe effects of gentrification are complex and contradictory, and its real impact varies. On one hand it leads to \u2018development\u2019 of a complex such as South City, on the other, it stands for the displacement, forced unemployment and forced eviction of workers and their families to make place for consumerist progress in a globalised world.\nDebaranjan Sarangi: Another artist incarcerated",

        "raw_content": "This metropolitan city is a melting pot for many different cultures, coming from diverse corners of the world, from northern Europe to the Mediterranean, Africa, Asia and South America. They add to the cultural scene, influencing music, art, and food. Music flows along the streets, from the rap and hip hop scene of the mid-1980s, with its urban sound to the conga and rumba from the Latin communities of Miami. During the day, you can listen to the music that restaurants play along the beaches. The beaches are always warm with the sun warming the sand between your toes. If you wish to take a day trip, driving into the Everglades right outside of Miami is a perfect way to learn about Miami\ufffds wildlife. On the beaches you can even some times spot an alligator \ufffd or you might just prefer to try some of this delicacy (alligator meat) in a restaurant nearby. You can rent a motorboat or kayak for the day, floating out to the islands to have some lunch, before heading back to Miami's beaches.\nIf you are a sports fan, you\ufffdll be spoilt for choice \ufffd Miami is the home of the Dolphins, an American football team and the Panthers, a popular hockey team. There are games on throughout the year, so try getting caught up in the sporting fever while you\ufffdre in Miami.\nIf you\ufffdre not into sports, the Miami Art Museum and Museum of Contemporary Art (MoCa) are good museums if you need a break from the sun. The Little Havana Miami Metro Zoo and Miami Seaquarium are also great places to go to watch your favourite furry (or scaly) animals play in Miami\ufffds sun. If you are in the mood for relaxing in a park, then the Everglades National Park, Vizcaya Museum & Garden and Fairchild Tropical Garden are good choices.\nIf people-watching is your thing, then you\ufffdre in for a treat in Miami. Make sure that you keep a look out along the beaches and clubs, because here in Miami the stars come out in the daytime. The celebrity kind, that is\ufffd\nMiami has a huge range of things to do \ufffd from the refined cultural offerings in museums, to simply relaxing on beaches and park benches, watching the starts wander on by. There\ufffds just something about that Florida sun which dazzles visitors. Take at least a week to enjoy every thing Miami has to offer you.\nNeighbourhoods such as Little Havana, Little Managua, Little Haiti, Little Moscow, Little Buenos Aires and Little Tel Aviv offer a unique blend of different cultures into the city. These neighbourhoods offer some great food from around the world. There is also the Bayside Marketplace for shopping.\nYou can hear the music from the live latin jazz bands in clubs, or in nightclubs. There are plenty of nightclubs and bars to choose from around Miami. For dancing try 2nd Street in the down town area and Washington Street in Miami Beach. You\ufffdll find bars all over the city, it\ufffds a matter of then choosing one that you like.\nThe best place to stay is along the South Beach where you only have to walk a minute or two before being able to lounge out on the beach. The South Beach Hostel offers two lounges which are open 24/7, a full bar, pool tables, and is located in the Art Deco building.\nRead news in Miami",

As a result of interest rate swaps and the issuance of $100 million of fixed-rate notes last year, approximately $278.1 million, or 62%, of the Company\u2019s outstanding debt was fixed-rate with an average interest rate of 3.86% and an average term-to-maturity of 5.5 years. The remaining $167.5 million, or 38%, of the Company\u2019s outstanding debt was floating-rate, with an average interest rate of LIBOR + 1.55% and an average term-to-maturity of 5.6 years.\nDuring the first quarter of 2016, the Company closed on a seven-year $125 million unsecured term loan facility. The term loan facility matures on January 14, 2023 and bears interest at LIBOR plus an applicable Eurodollar rate margin that will range from 1.50% to 2.25% per annum depending on the Company's leverage ratio. The proceeds were used to repay amounts outstanding under the Company's unsecured revolving credit facility and for general corporate purposes.\nDuring the first quarter of 2016, the Company also executed a forward interest swap that will effectively fix the $125 million unsecured term loan facility at 1.349% plus an applicable Eurodollar rate margin from February 14, 2018 to January 14, 2022. If this interest rate swap was effective as of March 31, 2016, the Company's consolidated debt would be 90% fixed and 10% variable.\nThe Company is increasing its full year 2016 guidance range for Company share of Recurring FFO to a range of $0.85 to $0.88 per diluted share of common stock. This Recurring FFO guidance refers only to the Company's in-place portfolio as of May 4, 2016 and does not include any assumptions for acquisitions or dispositions that may occur later during the year. Full year guidance otherwise remains unchanged and assumes the following: year-end Same Property Portfolio occupancy within a range of 94% to 95%, Same Property Portfolio NOI growth for the year of 5% to 7% and general & administrative expenses of $16.5 to $17.0 million dollars.\nOn May 2, 2016, the Board of Directors declared a dividend of $0.135 per share for the second quarter of 2016, payable in cash on July 15, 2016, to stockholders and unit holders of record on June 30, 2016.\nThe Company will host a webcast and conference call on Wednesday, May 4, 2016, at 5:00 p.m. Eastern time to review first quarter results and discuss recent events. The live webcast will be available on the Company\u2019s investor relations website at ir.rexfordindustrial.com.

These adjustments consist of non-recurring legal expenses or reimbursements related to prior litigation and acquisition expenses. Management believes that Recurring FFO is a useful supplemental measure as it provides a more meaningful and consistent comparison of operating performance and allows investors to more easily compare the Company's operating results. A reconciliation of FFO to Recurring FFO is set forth below.\nSame Property Portfolio: Our Same Property Portfolio is a subset of our consolidated portfolio and includes properties that were wholly-owned by us as of January 1, 2015 and still owned by us as of March 31, 2016. Therefore, we excluded from our Same Properties Portfolio any properties that were acquired or sold during the period from January 1, 2015 through March 31, 2016. The Company\u2019s computation of same property performance may not be comparable to other REITs.\nStabilized Same Property Portfolio: Our Stabilized Same Property Portfolio represents the properties included in our Same Property Portfolio, adjusted to exclude space at properties that were in various stages of repositioning or lease-up. As of March 31, 2016, space aggregating 350,176 rentable square feet at six of our Same Property Portfolio properties were in various stages of repositioning or lease-up.\nConsolidated Balance Sheets (In thousands)\nTotal real estate held for investment 1,217,802 1,188,766\nInvestments in real estate, net 1,106,635 1,085,143\nAcquisition related deposits 400 \u2014\nTenant security deposits 11,995 11,539\nCommon Stock, $0.01 par value 490,000,000 authorized and 55,657,428\nand 55,598,684 outstanding as of March 31, 2016 and December 31,\nRental revenues $ 23,499 $ 18,557\nTenant reimbursements 3,558 2,184\nTOTAL RENTAL REVENUES 27,370 20,931\nManagement, leasing and development services 134 132\nInterest income \u2014 277\nProperty expenses 7,543 5,771\nEquity in income from unconsolidated real estate entities 61 1\nNET INCOME 1,477 81\nLess: net income attributable to noncontrolling interest (52 ) (4 )\nNET INCOME ATTRIBUTABLE TO REXFORD INDUSTRIAL REALTY, INC. 1,425 77\nLess: earnings attributable to participating securities (78 ) (50 )\nNET INCOME ATTRIBUTABLE TO COMMON STOCKHOLDERS $ 1,347 $ 27\nNet income available to common stockholders per share - basic and diluted $ 0.02 $ \u2014\nRental income $ 19,253 $ 18,092 $ 1,161 6.4%\nTenant reimbursements 2,652 2,214 438 19.8%\nOther income 299 176 123 69.9%\nTotal Rental Revenues 22,204 20,482 1,722 8.4%\nInterest income \u2014 \u2014 \u2014 0.0%\nTotal Revenues 22,204 20,482 1,722 8.4%\nProperty expenses 6,170 5,678 492 8.7%\nDepreciation and amortization 8,841 9,457 (616 ) (6.5)%\nTotal Operating Expenses 15,011 15,135 (124 ) (0.8)%\nInterest expense (205 ) 533 (738 ) (138.5)%\nTotal Other Expense (205 ) 533 (738 ) (138.5)%\nTotal Expenses 14,806 15,668 (862 ) (5.5)%\nNet Income $ 7,398 $ 4,814 $ 2,584 53.7%\nNOI 2016 2015 $ Change % Change\nInterest expense (205 ) 533\nInterest income \u2014 \u2014\nNOI $ 16,034 $ 14,804 $ 1,230 8.3%\nStraight-line rents (315 ) (337 )\nAmort. above/below market leases (14 ) 46\nCash NOI $ 15,705 $ 14,513 $ 1,192 8.2%\nRental income $ 19,253 $ 18,092 $ 1,161\nTenant reimbursements 2,652 2,214 438\nTotal rental revenues 22,204 20,482 1,722\nProperty expenses 6,170 5,678 492\nNOI $ 16,034 $ 14,804 $ 1,230\nStraight-line rents (315 ) (337 ) 22\nAmort. above/below market leases (14 ) 46 (60 )\nCash NOI $ 15,705 14,513 $ 1,192\nLos Angeles County 90.9 % 94.5 % 89.4 % 90.6 % 1.5 % 3.9 %\nOrange County 86.5 % 98.4 % 92.2 % 97.7 % (5.7 )% 0.7 %\n(1) Reflects the occupancy of our Same Property Portfolio adjusted for space aggregating 350,176 rentable square feet at six properties that were in various stages of repositioning or lease-up as of March 31, 2016.\nNet income $ 1,477 $ 81\nDepreciation and amortization from unconsolidated joint ventures(1) 5 28\nFFO $ 12,696 $ 9,993\nLess: Noncontrolling interest(2) (449 ) (409 )\nLess: Participating securities(3) (124 ) (71 )\nCompany share of FFO $ 12,123 $ 9,513\nNon-recurring legal fees (reimbursements) (643 ) 369\nRecurring FFO $ 12,528 $ 10,595\nCompany share of Recurring FFO $ 11,962 $ 10,085\nWeighted-average shares outstanding - basic and diluted 55,269,598 50,683,528\nWeighted-average diluted shares and units 57,296,240 52,989,102\n(1) Amount represents our 15% ownership interest in a joint venture that owns the property located at 3233 Mission Oaks Boulevard.\n(2) Noncontrolling interest represent holders of outstanding common units of the Company's operating partnership that are owned by unit holders other than the Company.\n(3) Participating securities include unvested shares of restricted stock, unvested LTIP units and unvested performance units.",

        "title": "Jackie Braun - A Dinner, A Date, A Desert Sheikh excerpt",
        "raw_content": "A selection from A Dinner, A Date, A Desert Sheikh\n\"I think I've finally figured out who the guest of honor is,\" Arlene Williams said from the kitchen door, where she was peeking into the Hendersons' well-appointed dining room.\nBabs and Denby Henderson regularly entertained powerful lawmakers, renowned academics, award-winning playwrights and European nobility at their Park Avenue soir\u00e9es. Emily Merit, who'd been their caterer of choice for the past five years, didn't doubt tonight's guest of honor was any less impressive.\n\"Well, don't keep me in suspense,\" she replied, tongue-in-cheek, as she plated the evening's desserts.\nHer sous chef shot her a black look before saying, \"I think he might be the hunky model in those underwear ads.\"\nEmily glanced up at that. \"The ones that are plastered all over the city's bus stops and subway stations?\"\n\"And you claim to have sworn off men.\" Arlene grinned.\n\"I have, but those ads are impossible to miss.\"\nArlene peeked out again and her tone turned thoughtful. \"Or he could be the actor who plays the CIA operative on Restless Nights. They both have that same sensual mouth.\"\nEmily rolled her eyes. Where she'd sworn off men, she couldn't keep track of the number of guys Arlene had drooled over in the past month alone. \"Get away from the door already and give me a hand with dessert.\"\n\"Uh-oh. He's\u2026he's coming this way.\"\nEmily frowned. Great. Just what she needed, an audience. She didn't like people in her kitchen when she worked, especially if they were only coming in to flirt with her assistant. Technically this wasn't Emily's kitchen, but the same principle applied.\n\"He's with Mrs. Henderson,\" Arlene added and let the door swing fully closed.\nEmily relaxed a little upon hearing that. She figured she knew why they were coming to the kitchen. She'd met Babs five years earlier through her then-boyfriend, Reed, who had a business relationship with Bab's husband, Denby. One day when a catering company left the Hendersons in the lurch just hours before a dinner party, Reed had volunteered Emily's services. At the time, she was just out of culinary school and her only catering jobs had been casual gatherings for family and friends. She'd been scared to death, to put it mildly. But her cooking that evening was a huge hit, and the Hendersons proved to be the launching pad for her career.\nAs a client, Babs could be flighty and trying, but she knew lots of people whose pockets were every bit as deep as her own and\u2014bless her\u2014she'd made it her mission to introduce them to Emily. Thanks in part to the Henderson's patronage Emily had been able to renovate the kitchen in her otherwise modest East Village apartment without dipping into her savings for the restaurant she dreamed of opening one day.\nThe older woman was probably bringing her guest in for an introduction. In Emily's book the title of potential client was more important than what he did for a living, even if he really was the hunky model with the ripped abs and buff biceps in those underwear ads.\nArlene hoisted the tray of desserts, leaving the kitchen just before Babs swept in with the mystery man. The older woman wore vintage Dior and was doused in her usual Chanel. Her high-piled hair prevented Emily from getting a good look at Mr. Hunky.\n\"Emily, my dear, you outdid yourself this evening,\" Babs proclaimed in her usual dramatic fashion. Her smile sparkled as brightly as the large diamond pendant hanging low in her d\u00e9colletage. \"All of my guests are raving about the herb-crusted salmon.\" She turned and tucked her hand into the crook of the man's arm then, drawing him to her side. \"And that includes my very special guest, Sh\u2014\"\n\"Please, call me Dan,\" he inserted.\nHe wasn't the underwear model, but Emily's mouth dropped open anyway. She couldn't fault her assistant\nfor standing at the door half the evening gawking. God, he was gorgeous. Drop-dead so. The monosyllabic name, however, didn't suit him. It was too simple, too\u2026 Western.\nWhich was why she frowned and said, \"Dan?\"\n\"It is what you would call a nickname.\" His words were adorned with an accent she couldn't quite place, but its effect was potent. It had her hormones threatening to snap and sizzle like vegetables saut\u00e9ing in hot oil. It bothered her that she wasn't completely immune. She wanted to be. God knew, after what had happened with Reed, she should be.\nThe man was saying, \"I find that when I travel in your country it is easier for some people to pronounce than my given name.\"\nThat made sense, she supposed. Still, he didn't look like a Dan. Nor did he resemble the underwear model Arlene mistook him for, though he certainly had the body for it. He was tall with a lean, athletic build that accentuated the clean lines of the expertly tailored suit he wore. His face, however, was more angular and masculine than the male model in question, and slashes of dark brow set off a pair of enigmatic brown eyes. His hair was the color of onyx and cut short enough to be respectable, but still long enough to make a woman's fingers itch to weave through it.\nShe stretched out her hand, but only to shake his. \"I'm Emily Merit.\"\nHis palm was warm against hers, his grasp light but not as condescendingly loose as some men's could be. She found it easier to concentrate on his grip than the bizarre reaction her body was having to the benign contact. It now felt as if her sizzling hormones had been placed under the broiler.\nWhen the handshake ended, Emily smoothed down the front of her mannish chef coat. Normally she wasn't vain, but his physical perfection made her painfully aware that her hair was pulled back in a severe, net-covered chignon and what little makeup she'd applied that morning most likely had worn off.\nBabs spoke up then. \"As I told you earlier, Dan, Mr. Henderson and I wouldn't dream of letting anyone else cater our gatherings. As far as we're concerned, she's the best in Manhattan.\"\nDan nodded and offered a smile that was every bit as warm as his hand had been. Forget broiler, her temperature was reaching kiln status. \"Then I must have her.\"\nWas he aware of the double entendre? His bland expression made it difficult to be sure. Emily certainly was. Before she could stop herself, she sputtered ridiculously, \"But I\u2026 I don't even know your last name.\"\n\"Allow me to remedy that. It's Tarim.\" His expression was no longer bland. The corners of his mouth turned up and laughter lit his dark eyes. He was amused. Definitely.\nEmily wasn't since it came at her expense. God, what was wrong with her? This was completely out of character, not to mention unprofessional. Though it shouldn't have been necessary, she reminded herself that she was a respected and sought-after chef who had graduated from one of the country's best culinary schools. She wasn't some silly schoolgirl conversing with the football team's star quarterback.\nBabs cleared her throat. \"Well, if the two of you will excuse me, I should get back to the party. Promise me you won't keep him occupied for too long, Emily. My other guests are eager to spend more time with him.\"\n\"I'll shoo him out as soon as possible,\" she said with a tight smile. She meant it, too. She planned to get down to business and then usher him out. As soon as they were alone, she said, \"So, what can I do for you, Mr. Tarim?\"\n\"Dan, please. And may I call you Emily?\"\n\"By all means.\" Her name, which she'd always considered plain and old-fashioned, sounded almost exotic when he said it.\n\"I'm planning a small dinner party before I leave Manhattan. I would like to repay the generosity of those who have hosted me during my stay.\"\n\"Is this your first time in the city?\" she inquired politely, even as she sneaked a glance at her watch.\n\"No. I am here several times a year for business purposes mainly. In the past, I've used the services of someone else to cater my parties, but the meal you prepared tonight has caused me to change my mind.\"\n\"Thank you. I'm flattered.\"\nAnd she was. His clothes screamed expensive, which meant he could afford to hire any catering company he wanted. She wondered which one he'd used, though she didn't ask him. She'd discreetly inquire later. It was good to know who her competition was. Good for business and, depending on the caterer, good for her ego. For the past several years, she had slaved and sacrificed to build a client base and solidify her reputation for high quality. Knowing that those efforts had paid off also made it easier to accept their high cost to her personal life.\nShe thought of Reed then. They'd dated six years. Everyone, including Emily, had assumed they would wed eventually. Looking back now, though, she could see the cracks that had only gotten deeper and wider as she'd pursued her dreams. When catering had been a hobby or merely a part-time job, he'd seemed proud of her. When it turned into a real career, pulling in serious money and creating enough buzz to land Emily a mention in The New York Times, his enthusiasm had cooled considerably. When she began to dream about opening a restaurant, he'd done his best to talk her out of it, quoting statistics on the number of establishments that failed each year. Finally he'd found someone else: Emily's sister.\n\"The guest list will be small, no more than six guests and myself,\" Dan was saying, pulling Emily back to the present.\n\"When were you thinking?\" she asked, mentally flipping through her appointment calendar.\n\"The Saturday after next. The notice is short, I know.\"\nHis expression held an apology. \"As I said, I usually hire someone else to handle my dinner parties. But I'm hoping you will find room in your schedule for me. As my gracious hostess said, you are the best.\"\nHis lips twitched charmingly, but this time, immersed in the details of business, she was able to ignore the pyre of heat.\nDan, also known as Sheikh Madani Abdul Tarim, wasn't one to settle for anything but the best. Thanks to his position and wealth, he'd never had to. Still, he didn't consider himself demanding so much as discerning. Tonight's meal was first-rate. He had to admit, though, he hadn't expected the chef who'd created it to be quite so young.\nOr so attractive.\nEven wearing mannish attire and with her hair scraped back in that hideous fashion there was no denying the tug of male interest he felt. Of course, he wouldn't act on it. With the official announcement of his engagement fast approaching, he wasn't in the market for a relationship, casual or otherwise. Still, Emily Merit almost made him wish his future hadn't been decided when he was still a toddler.\nHe blamed it on her eyes. They were a rich combination of blues and greens, and reminded him of the Mediterranean Sea near his family's summer home. Her gaze was direct and assessing, making it clear that she considered herself his equal.\nHe liked that. As it was, his title and position intimidated too many people\u2014male and female. Perhaps that was why he hadn't allowed the hostess to formally introduce him. And why he had decided to tell Emily Merit his name was merely Dan. He preferred anonymity every now and then, if only to keep himself grounded. As his father often told him, when he became ruler of Kashaqra, Madani would need to look out for the interests of all of the country's people.\nThat didn't mean he didn't prefer to get his way. So, he prodded, \"Well?\"\n\"Unfortunately I'm booked to make the meal and cake for a child's fifth birthday celebration that day.\"\nIt didn't seem like a huge obligation to him. \"Will it take all day?\"\n\"In most instances, it wouldn't.\" Her tone turned wry. \"But this particular party is an hour outside the city in Connecticut and the parents are insisting on an epicurean feast.\"\n\"You don't agree with their menu choices,\" he gathered.\nShe sobered and said diplomatically, \"It's not my place to agree or disagree with a client's menu choices.\"\n\"But?\" Raising his eyebrows he invited her confidence.\nAfter a moment she admitted, \"I just don't think the average kindergartner will enjoy what they have selected. After all, certain foods are considered an acquired taste for good reason.\"\nMadani found himself chuckling, charmed by her honesty. \"What have they ordered? Caviar blintzes?\"\n\"Close.\" She smiled and he spied a dimple lurking low on her right cheek. It lent an air of impishness to her otherwise classical features. \"At least I managed to talk the mother out of an appetizer of duck liver p\u00e2t\u00e9 in favor of ham rolls. Even so, I'm pretty sure there are going to be plenty of leftovers. She wouldn't budge on the veal marsala or the side of roasted root vegetables.\"\n\"I guess this means you won't be available.\"\nShe nibbled her lower lip. The gesture was uncomfortably and unaccountably sexy. \"I may be able to accommodate you,\" she said at last. \"I have an assistant I could leave in charge of the birthday party. Of course, a lot depends on the time of your gathering and what you would like to serve.\"\nMadani wasn't sure if his relief came from knowing Emily would be preparing the meal for his guests or from knowing he would have the opportunity to see her again. \"I can be very amenable when the situation calls for it. When shall we meet to discuss the details?\"\n\"I'm free tomorrow morning if you are.\"\nHe had three meetings lined up back-to-back before noon, but he nodded anyway. As he'd said, he could be amenable when the situation called for it. This one did, though he refused to explore why he felt that way.",

        "raw_content": "In 2011, 131 million working days were lost through sickness, most commonly through coughs, colds and flu and back, neck and limb problems. To put it into context, this equates to 4.5 days for every person in the workforce per year. If your business has 20 staff, that is 90 days lost every year.\nNaturally, loss of productivity will place a tremendous strain on your business. When employees become ill or get injured, it\u2019s vital to quickly get them accurately diagnosed, effectively treated and back into work. The NHS is not as efficient as it would like to be, which is why more and more companies are offering Private Medical Insurance (PMI) to their employees.\nLooking after your employees \u2013 your company\u2019s greatest asset \u2013 is both responsible and crucial and gives you the ability to attract, motivate and retain the best staff. The insurance usually covers the costs of private medical treatment (often at specified hospitals, clinics or medical centres) for curable, short-term conditions, illnesses or injuries for all levels of employees, although treatment for chronic or long-term illness or injury will be covered by Critical Illness Cover and not PMI.\nPre-existing conditions and \u2018self-inflicted\u2019 injuries or illness (e.g. issues that arise from dangerous hobbies or lifestyle choices) are also likely to be excluded from the standard levels of cover.\nAt the higher end of the market, policies can include services such as dentistry and optical care.\nThe benefits of having PMI are immediate and obvious:\nIt can help manage the cost of short-term illness or injury, as well as business impacts such as productivity, morale and profitability\nIt is an excellent recruitment tool\nIt offers peace of mind to employees\nIn addition, cover can often be available to take in spouses or children, either paid for by the company, or voluntarily by the employee.\nPMI is classed as a benefit in kind and while the premiums are met by the company, the employee is liable to pay tax on them and any claims are the responsibility of the individual employee.\nFor more information about Jeffreys Henry Financial\u2019s range of Private Medical Insurance policies, please call 020 7371 5244 or email info@jeffreyshenryfinancial.co.uk",

        "raw_content": "I was stressing over internship applications last semester when my friend suggested I replace her at the internship she had when the semester was over. She recommended me to the editor, and the next thing I knew, I had an interview with Southern Bride Magazine. The editor has already looked at my portfolio via my website and wanted me to work for her, so an interview turned into a \u201cwelcome aboard\u201d session. I was taken off guard, but it really was a testament to just how well the Meek School had prepared me for my future endeavors.\nAt Southern Bride Magazine, I am responsible for coordinating, creating, and editing all of their online content. I am also assisting on photo shoots as a second photographer and men\u2019s stylist. I connect with potential advertisers for the upcoming issues as well.\nI was really surprised by just how hectic the magazine industry can be. It\u2019s a good kind of chaos at all times, so it keeps me on my toes. I\u2019ve learned to juggle school assignments with work responsibilities, but I am learning more about my abilities as a writer. In journalism, it isn\u2019t too often that we get to be our most creative, but the editors want to keep the content fresh and relatable so I\u2019ve evolved my writing to meet their expectations. I am more confident in my capabilities as a writer.\nWhen it comes to an internship, look for something that fits your personality. You\u2019ll be much happier than the other people who settle for a position just because of its potential power on their resum\u00e9s. I\u2019ve had more fun than I ever expected to in this position because the people in the office keep things casual and more comfortable. There is no pressure and no stress as long as you stay on top of things. Just make sure that you are happy with the environment when you go on any initial interviews.\nI\u2019m also commuting to Memphis 2 \u2013 3 times a week, but I think it\u2019s worth it, so don\u2019t be afraid to look beyond your comfort zone in Oxford.\nStory by Daniel Dubuisson",

        "title": "W - Two Worlds Review - Kdrama Reviews",
        "raw_content": "Kdrama Reviews > Reviews > W \u2013 Two Worlds Review\nThe Korean drama, W-Two Words is fantasy drama about Kang Chul (Lee Jong Suk) and Yoen-Joo (Han Hyo Joo) who are living in two different worlds. Yoen Joo is a surgeon living in the real world but Kang Chul is main character in fantasy comic book world. You see, Yoen Joo\u2019s father is a cartoonist. He created a popular comic book series called W. Thus the title of the drama. Things started to get interesting when the father decides to kill off the main character and some how Yoen-Joo gets pulled into the comic and fall in love with Kang Chul.\nI have to admin, I was bit concerned about how this drama\u2019s fantasy story-line would play out. I was wondering how the writers could make this drama interesting and exciting knowing the story is bit far fetch. Because the story itself isn\u2019t anything special. We have romantic story between a character from a real world and a character from a comic book world It just reminds me so much of music video from the 80\u2019s called \u201cTake on me\u201d by rock group called Ah-Ha. It is really fun concept but many TV shows and movies already have mimic this concept.\nBut I was wrong. The drama is very good. It\u2019s super fast pace and it is very unpredictable. There were so many surprises throughout each episode, it really grabbed my attention. I mean, who wants to see very predictable dramas where you can figure out what is going to happen next. This is what makes this drama very good and special. I\u2019ll try not to spoil any surprises but the biggest surprise for me was when they revealed identity of the main villains. I\u2019m not going to say any more than that, but it will blow your mind.\nI also like the fact that how cartoonist can change things around in the cartoon world in real time. For example, he can draw a gun and the character in the cartoon can use a gun out at the time of needs. Or the cartoonist can place a character into different location when they are needed or when they are in trouble. I felt like this made the story better and more exciting.\nAll the characters in the drama was fantastic. I do love the two main characters Kang Chul and Yoen Joo. I like the fact that their relationship was very organic and genuine. It is not forced. It is refreshing to see a couple in the drama who are true to their feeling and genuinely love each other. Also you should note that W is a drama that is mainly focused on two main characters. Many of the supporting casts doesn\u2019t really place big role in the drama. This isn\u2019t anything bad. In fact, it made the drama better because the audience can really get to know the main characters.\nLastly, what I really like about this drama the production. The product quality of this drama is top notch. All the special effects are good and effective. Believe me, there were quit a bit of special effects in the drama. The special effect didn\u2019t really take over the drama but it just made the drama better.\nThis isn\u2019t anything that I don\u2019t like but there are few things I would change about the story line. First, I would give the audience little bit of hint that Yoen Joo can draw well like her father. We didn\u2019t know that she can draw well until around episode 7. We know that she is the daughter of cartoonist. So it does make sense that she is able to draw well and maybe take over her father\u2019s cartoon later on. But this wasn\u2019t something that was hinted in the drama. Although there was short flash back scene where young Yoen Joo\u2019s were drawing when the parents were fighting with each other. But that was the only foreshadowing in the drama. I felt like there should be more. The fact she was able to draw just as good as her father, came out of no where, and it just felt like writers put it there last minuet because they are stuck at one point in the story.\nSecond, there were few times in the drama that really didn\u2019t make sense to me. For example, I couldn\u2019t figure out how did the black faced villain could travel through space in a real world. In one incident, he was in a street and then he was able to magically appear in Yoen Joo\u2019s bedroom. It does make sense if it was a comic book world, but it was happening in the real world without any kind of explanation. Again it does look like the writers are getting sloppy.\nLastly, I felt like there were few times the drama where it wasn\u2019t too clear about what was the real world and what was the comic book world. For example, there was a scene were Kang Chul actually met Yoen Joo\u2019s cartoonist father. I remind you, Kang Chul is character from cartoon world. At first I thought it was one of chapter from the comic book. But it turned out it was happening in real world. There were few other scenes like this that were bit confusing.\nIf I could say one thing that I didn\u2019t like about the drama is the last episode (episode 16). First 15 episodes were fantastic, but when it came down to the last final episode, I was bit disappointed with Han Hyo-Joo\u2019s performance. In last episode, when Yoen Joo\u2019s character thought that Kang Chul was going to die and her father was stuck in the cartoon world forever, she started to cry in the hospital, but it looked so fake. It looked so fake that it looked really awkward. I felt like the director stop caring about the quality of the show since it was the last episode. I know that Hyo-Joo is fantastic actress. We saw it on her previous episodes. But I wasn\u2019t sure why she didn\u2019t make any effort on this last final scene. Bit disappointing.\nEven though I did wrote about some of the things I was disappointed about this drama, they didn\u2019t really distract from the overall enjoyment of the drama. Overall, it is fantastic drama and I highly recommend to everyone. If you are looking for bit different drama with fast story line with lots of surprises, W \u2013 Two World is for you.\nHangul: \ub354\ube14\uc720\nDirector: Jung Dae-Yoon\nrisa wolfson January 31, 2017 at 3:47 pm\nThank you for the comprehensive review. I\u2019ve been on the fence about watching this one because it seemed a bit far fetched and I didn\u2019t know if the story line would work. Wait, it\u2019s a drama\u2026what was I thinking? I appreciate the \u201cIn a Nutshell\u201d aspect of your review. Keep up the insightful reviews! I\u2019m off to watch dramas.\nCalyopso February 12, 2019 at 9:53 am\nPoint 1: Was it necessary to have a scene to remind us that Yeon-Joo draws well enough? We quickly see her in a flashback from episode 5, when her parents are fighting. Then in the flashback at the beginning of episode 7, then we see her drawing at the end of that episode. That seems sufficient to me, and there was probably not enough time to show more. It is obvious that this is a major point planned by the scriptwriter, and certainly not something added on the spot. Nothing was done on the spot in this drama. The writer has built her story in depth, because it is very complex! The fact that Yeon-Joo is recognized as a legitimate author by the manhwa is of great importance throughout the rest of the drama.\nPoint 2: The fact that the faceless killer acts in the real world as well as in the manhwa world is one of the best surprises of the drama, enough to get goose bumps! Here again, the scriptwriter knows perfectly well what effect she is producing! This means that by passing into the real world, a character retains his or her attributes, and that the manhwa world can influence the real world, like the opposite, which is truly frightening.\nPoint 3: It becomes clear that you watched the drama too quickly, without paying attention to the details, and that it should have been reviewed several times. The manhwa is able to edit his story even if the action takes place in the real world, as long as the hero of the manhwa is involved.\nPoint 4: It\u2019s quite subjective, I found it heartbreaking at the time, and it was just a short scene, a small weight compared to the thickness of the last episode. And in particular the fabulous and traffic scene, when she reaches Kang Chul by car.",

        "title": "The Craziest Writing Methods of Famous Authors \u2014 Keeping Up With The Penguins",
        "raw_content": "September 7, 2018 / ShereeKUWTP / 11 Comments\nWhen we start talking about how our favourite writers write, I think all of us conjure up one of two mental pictures. We either imagine the disciplined, dedicated writer (like Stephen King) with his set schedule and his carefully-arranged study, or we think of the heavy-drinking night owl (see: Hunter S Thompson), who obliterates their body and mind but vomits out genius works of art at random. Authors certainly exist right across that spectrum, but it\u2019s always more fun to read about the latter \ud83d\ude09 Here are some of the craziest writing methods of famous authors, the bizarre habits and creative processes that have produced amazing works of literature.\nJack Kerouac & His Scroll\nJack Kerouac spent years scribbling down notes for On The Road in his various journals before he actually sat down at a typewriter and got on with it. He went from one extreme to another, though. He decided that having to stop for anything would be an unwelcome distraction in his creative process, so he procured a single 120-foot scroll of paper, and thus began typing his manuscript. His work poured forth, and he wrote the entire draft in what was effectively a single burst, barely stopping for food and water. When he was done, he just rolled it back up, and marched on down to his editor\u2019s office. Of course, his sensible editor told Kerouac that he was out of his mind, and he\u2019d need to type it up on normal pages in order for them to edit it \u2013 in response, Kerouac threw a tanty and stormed out.\nKerouac was also highly superstitious (about his writing, but also life in general). He tried out various rituals to get the creative juices flowing: writing only by candlelight, writing by a full moon, praying before sitting down to write, standing on his head (yes, really). Clearly, something worked, because he is now considered the darling of the Beat generation literary movement. Read my full review of his magnum opus, On The Road, here.\nMaya Angelou & Her Hotel Room\nMaya Angelou took Virginia Woolf\u2019s maxim (that a woman needs a room of one\u2019s own) to the next level. She rented a hotel room in her hometown by the month, and used it as her \u201cstudy\u201d. At 6:30AM each morning, she would head over there and spend the morning writing. She specifically requested that management remove all paintings and decorative items from the room (too distracting), and forbid housekeeping staff from cleaning the room (lest they inadvertently throw away a scrap of paper containing a line of genius). She stocked the room herself with a thesaurus, a dictionary, the Bible, and a few crossword puzzles; she believed her \u201cBig Mind\u201d would sort out problems in her work if she kept her \u201cLittle Mind\u201d occupied with something else.\nOf course, she never actually slept there. She would leave around 2:00PM, run her errands, and then review the pages she\u2019d written that day at home after dinner. She is cited as saying she\u2019d inevitably scrap most of them, but keep the process up until she had about fifty good pages that she was happy with. And that\u2019s how her work was born.\nAaron Sorkin & His Broken Nose\nGranted, Aaron Sorkin isn\u2019t an \u201cauthor\u201d in the same sense as everyone else on this list \u2013 he\u2019s actually a screenwriter, the mind behind A Few Good Men, The Social Network, and The West Wing. Still, his process is definitely bonkers enough to warrant inclusion here!\n\u201cWriting never comes easy,\u201d he once said. \u201cThe difference between Page 2 and Page Nothing is the difference between life and death.\u201d\nIn 2011, Sorkin arrived at an Emmy event with a broken nose. When pressed by the media, he confessed that the injury was incurred as part of his writing process. It turns out, Sorkin workshops his dialogue\u2026 with himself, reading his lines out loud into a mirror. While working on a script, he became so enraged with his character\u2019s situation that he head-butted the glass! He was probably on to something good, but\u2026 sheesh.\nVictor Hugo & His Bare Arse\nI\u2019m not being funny: Victor Hugo literally wrote The Hunchback of Notre Dame in the nude. He was working to an incredibly tight deadline in 1831, and found himself becoming distracted by, y\u2019know, leaving the house all the time. So, what\u2019s a writer to do?\nWell, the obvious: Hugo bought himself a big bottle of ink, and asked his valet to confiscate all of his clothes. You can\u2019t go out and have a good time and miss your deadline if you\u2019ve got nothing to wear! Hugo fought off the cold by wrapping himself in a huge grey shawl, and set about writing out the manuscript, all the while in his birthday suit.\nIt\u2019s unconventional, but you\u2019ve got to give it to Hugo: it\u2019s genius!\nKazuo Ishiguro & His \u201cCrash\u201d\nThis is perhaps the grown-up\u2019s version of Kerouac\u2019s scroll. It was 1987 when Kazuo Ishiguro convinced his wife to let him try something a little weird. No, not that! He convinced her to take on all of his housework and emotional labour (like wives have done for centuries before, but I digress), he completely cleared his calendar, and planned an entirely new approach to his book. He did nothing but write from 9:00AM-10:30PM, six days a week. He allowed himself an hour each day for lunch, and two for dinner (what a slacker!). He didn\u2019t answer the phone once in this time, or even look at a piece of mail. His plan was to reach a mental state in which his \u201cfictional world was more real to him than the actual one\u201d. Apparently it worked, because this process produced The Remains of the Day. The first draft took him four weeks, writing free-hand on his writing slope.\nIn fact, Ishiguro still writes all of his first drafts on that writing slope. When the time comes to type them up, he uses a computer that dates back to 1996 \u2013 it\u2019s not connected to the Internet. Neither of these habits are particularly kooky. What really disturbed me was reading Ishiguro quoted in an interview as saying that, while he was working on The Buried Giant, he didn\u2019t watch a single episode of Game of Thrones. Apparently, he wanted to remain focused on his own fictional world, and he was worried that taking an hour to watch an HBO series once a week would \u201ctamper with the world that he set up\u201d. It\u2019s all well and good to sacrifice for your art, but surely there are limits to what a human being can endure! \ud83d\ude09\nJames Joyce & His Crayons\nFor anyone who has read James Joyce\u2019s work, it won\u2019t come as any surprise to see him included in this list. He wrote one of the most notoriously unreadable novels in the history of English literature (Finnegans Wake); it took him seventeen years to complete, and every sentence is so oblique that most people need a companion guide to read alongside it. (I\u2019m not game enough to take it on just yet \u2013 Ulysses is on The List, but I\u2019m so apprehensive that I\u2019ll probably leave it until last.)\nWhy seventeen years? Well, firstly, Joyce considered hammering out two whole sentences to be a \u201cgood day\u2019s work\u201d, so he wasn\u2019t the most prolific guy. Secondly, he was working at a pretty serious disadvantage: he was almost blind. He was horribly near-sighted, and ended up developing iritis (a painful eye condition, the result of rheumatic fever). He had twenty-five eye surgeries in an attempt to improve his condition, with no luck. So, he took to writing with large blue pencils and crayons, laying on his stomach in bed, wearing a big white coat.\nIt sounds nuts, but there was actually method to his madness! The colourful writing implements were big enough and bright enough to help him see what he was writing. He also believed that the white coat reflected more light onto the page in front of him. As for laying on his stomach in bed, well: there probably aren\u2019t many more comfortable ways to get your eyes as close to the page as possible. Maybe he wasn\u2019t that crazy after all!\nFriedrich Schiller & His Rotting Apples\nOf course, I\u2019ve saved the best for last. Friedrich Schiller\u2019s mate, Goethe, has dobbed him in as having probably the craziest writing method of all time. See, Goethe stopped by Schiller\u2019s house one night, and \u2013 finding that his friend was out and about \u2013 decided to wait, and have a snoop around.\nHe noticed a strange smell emanating from the bottom drawer of a desk, in the study where Schiller would work. Goethe leaned down, opened it, and found\u2026 a pile of rotting apples.\nNo joke: Schiller had deliberately stored a bunch in a drawer, and waited patiently for them to go off. He told his wife that the odor was \u201cinspiring\u201d, and he \u201ccould not live or work without it\u201d. That woman deserves an actual medal, because what the actual fuck?! According to Goethe, the smell was so overpowering that it was enough to make you lightheaded. I\u2019m not one to judge, but\u2026 Schiller was off his head.\nWriters are hardly known for being well-adjusted and sensible, but this lot really take the cake. Have you heard about any other crazy writing methods of famous authors? Are you inspired to develop one of your own? Let me know in the comments below (or tell us over at KUWTP on Facebook!).\nThat Aaron Sorkin so typifies Aaron Sorkin as a writer and a person that I can\u2019t deal with it. These stories are great!\nHahahahaha cheers! It\u2019s such a funny Google/Wikipedia rabbit hole to go down, I had trouble narrowing it down to just this lot \u2013 writers are a crazy bunch! \ud83d\ude09\nThis is fabulous. And here\u2019s my favourite line of the century: \u201cWriting never comes easy,\u201d Aaron Sorkin once said. \u201cThe difference between Page 2 and Page Nothing is the difference between life and deaen th.\u201d Wow. Reminds me of poet, John Berryman\u2019s response to an interviewer saying to him, \u2018John, you seem to take your poetry very seriously.\u2019 John: \u2018It is a matter of life and death.\u2019 My fav process out of all the above I think must be Victor Hugo. You know, the bare arse thing. But then I also like Ishiguro\u2019s & Joyce\u2019s! How about your own process Sheree Strange?\nHahahahaha I\u2019m not far off Hugo, actually \u2013 I consider pants to be leg prisons, and one cannot write freely and fluently when constrained in such a manner \ud83d\ude1b\nHoly mother of fuck! The first draft of The Remains of the Day took four WEEKS???!!! (It\u2019s definitely in my top ten.)\nHA! That\u2019s right! \ud83d\ude09\nFascinating post. As you point out, many writers jabs weird ways. I guess that this is due to The creativity thing. Many writers are just different.\nSchiller was really crazy with those apples.\nI know, right?! He was really off his rocker \ud83d\ude09\nThis is amazing! Writers are such a weird bunch. Maya Angelou and Kazuo Ishiguro were so focused. Victor Hugo was super dedicated too, for a cold climate \ud83d\ude00 And poor James Joyce. I wish I\u2019d liked Ulysses a bit better considering his amazing effort, but I look forward to seeing what you make of it. If I\u2019d known about Schiller and the rotten apples, I might have mentioned him in my list of famous apples. That\u2019s hilarious, in a gross way. Thanks for the entertaining read today. This sort of trivia is well worth collecting.\nI don\u2019t think Joyce would begrudge you not fully appreciating his masterpiece \u2013 I\u2019m sure he knew quite well that he was writing impossible, impenetrable books \ud83d\ude09 I love strange literary trivia too, I think I\u2019ll have to pull together more lists like this \ud83d\ude42\ngood for Ishiguru, so far I have managed to avoid the game of thrones virus and I hope to remain immune",

        "raw_content": "I have a newsy little post for you this fine Sunday.\nFirst off, I have a brand new release. It's a short story called \"The Border,\" and it's part of Dreamspinner's Daily Dose anthology. If you buy the Daily Dose package, you get a story every day in June. Or you can buy stories individually. They all have hurt/comfort themes.\nInjured in a war that has stretched on for years, Sergeant John Peterson guards a lonely border. Aside from passing contact with railship captains, the only person he sees is the enemy: the man who guards the other side of the border. A bad fall places John\u2019s life in the other soldier\u2019s hands. He\u2019s wary of his rescuer, First Lieutenant Thomas Fellowes, but over time he finds himself drawn to his new companion. Both soldiers carry the war in their souls, but they might find peace in each other.\nYou can buy \"The Border\" at Dreamspinner Press or at Amazon.\nMy second piece of news is that I just got the draft cover art for my novella The Pillar and I'm really excited about it. The art's by Shobana Appavu, who did that incredible cover for Venetian Masks. I love that cover so much I framed a poster-size version to hang on my wall. The Pillar is set in 15th century Bosnia. It releases in August and I'm really excited to share it with you. Here's that blurb:\nAnd, third piece of news! On Monday, June 9, the ever-amazing Amy Lane and I will be interviewed on the radio! The show is Insight, which airs on NPR stations in the Sacramento region. If you get one of those stations, you can listen live at 9am. Or anyone can listen later online. I'm really excited by this and also terribly, horribly nervous.\nMy kids had their last day of school on Friday, so part of my life for the next months involves keeping the older one from permanently attaching herself to electronic devices and keeping the younger one from tormenting the older one. Yeah, good luck to me. I took younger one to the library yesterday and she came home with a big stack of thick books, but she's already polished one of those off. Because she got straight As in 9th grade, the older one earned a reward: she's now allowed to watch R-rated movies. She celebrated by watching The Breakfast Club last night. That movie might be ancient, but she totally loved it. I see more John Hughes in her future.\nThat's all for now. I'm off to write about werewolves in 19th century Oregon!\nCongrats on all the new stuff. They both sound really good. I'm especially interested in the Bosnia one and Oooo, werewolves in Oregon. Good luck with that one.\nAs for the girls, hands you your drink of choice to survive it (but congrats to the older one on her grades).\nThank you! I'm really excited about the Bosnian story.\nI will congratulate the older one. She's currently typing, playing a game online, and FaceTiming with a friend, all at once.",

        "title": "Tennessee Governors & the Path to the US Senate, VIII - The Knoxville Focus Tennessee Governors & the Path to the US Senate, VIII - The Knoxville Focus",
        "raw_content": "Tennessee Governors & the Path to the US Senate, VIII\nBy design on November 18, 2018 Comments Off on Tennessee Governors & the Path to the US Senate, VIII\nBenton McMillin was such a fixture in Tennessee politics he was regarded as the \u201cOld Warhorse\u201d of the Democratic Party in the state. After spending twenty years in Congress from Tennessee\u2019s Fourth District, Benton McMillin twice served as governor of Tennessee. Yet the pinnacle of McMillin\u2019s political ambition was to win election to the United States Senate. Like the proverbial old fire-horse, Benton McMillin seemed unable to ignore the call whenever the bell rang. McMillin made his last serious campaign at the ripe old age of seventy-seven and quite nearly won. Had it not been for his opponent\u2019s majority in Edward H. Crump\u2019s fiefdom of Memphis, Benton McMillin would have been the Democratic nominee to reclaim the governor\u2019s mansion from Republican Alf Taylor in 1922.\nLike many of his contemporaries, Benton McMillin sympathized with the Confederacy during the Civil War and while he wanted to join the Confederate Army, he was only sixteen years old when the war broke out and McMillin\u2019s father flatly refused to give his permission. The teenager was captured by Union troops at one point during the Civil War and jailed as he adamantly refused to swear the federal Oath of Allegiance. McMillin\u2019s rise in Tennessee politics began with a term in the state House of Representatives and eventual appointment by Governor James D. Porter to the bench, sitting as judge of the Fifth Judicial District. McMillin did not long remain cloaked in a judge\u2019s robe; after only a year as judge Benton McMillin ran for Congress in 1878. The nominating convention was apparently contentious with 125 ballots required before a nominee was selected. Benton McMillin withdrew his name as a candidate several times, but finally emerged as the Democratic nominee on the 125th ballot. The thirty-two year old candidate had numerous friends inside the Fourth Congressional District and although he had been born in Kentucky, had practiced law with his uncle, Judge E.L. Gardenhire. McMillin had lived in Celina, the county seat of Clay County before moving to Carthage, Tennessee. Evidently campaigning at the time was hazardous, as the young candidate, while traveling from Hartsville to Dixon Springs, managed to turn over his buggy. McMillin \u201cwas bruised somewhat\u201d, but apparently none the worse for wear. McMillin won the election and served ten terms in the U. S. House of Representatives.\nFor most of his time in Congress, Benton McMillin was a different kind of Democrat than what one would consider from a modern perspective. McMillin was wary of American global exploits, as he considered them to reek of imperialism. Congressman McMillin was also cautious about expenditures and was constant in his opposition to what he believed to be excess spending on the part of the government. Being a product of his time, Benton McMillin was also deeply opposed to the Lodge Bill, offered in 1890 by Massachusetts senator Henry Cabot Lodge. The Lodge Bill sought to afford protection to African-American voters in the South. As a senior Democrat in the House, McMillin served on the powerful Rules Committee and frequently challenged the autocratic Speaker of the House Thomas B. Reed of Maine. If Cordell Hull is today remembered by some as the father of the national income tax, Benton McMillin was its grandfather. It was Congressman McMillin who successfully offered an amendment to the Wilson \u2013 Gorman Tariff Act of 1894 that would have established the first income tax in the United States. Both McMillin and Hull represented Tennessee\u2019s Fourth Congressional District and the farmers and residents of the small towns in the largely rural district would have been exempt from paying the income tax. The Wilson \u2013 Gorman Tariff Bill was challenged and heard by the U. S. Supreme Court. The high court struck down McMillin\u2019s amendment as unconstitutional in 1895 in a decision rendered in Pollock v. Farmers\u2019 Loan and Trust Company.\nBenton McMillin\u2019s first bid for the United States Senate came in 1897 after the death of Senator Isham G. Harris. McMillin was unsuccessful, but ran for and won the Democratic nomination for governor the following year. McMillin won the general election and was reelected to a second two-year term in 1900. Tennessee Republicans made an effort to defeat Governor McMillin in his reelection bid, but the Old Warhorse won handily. At the conclusion of his term as governor, Benton McMillin chose not to resume the practice of law, but instead went into the insurance business. Yet McMillin never gave up his interest in politics nor his desire to hold elective office. The lure of the United States Senate still intoxicated McMillin and he remained determined to return to Washington, D. C.\nThe first opportunity for Benton McMillin to return to Washington, D. C. was the unexpected death of Senator William B. Bate, who died days after having been sworn-in for a fourth term. Almost immediately McMillin and former governor Robert L. Taylor were candidates to succeed Bate. The Nashville Tennessean tried to assess the strength of the various candidates, which included incumbent governor James B. Frazier. According to the Tennessean, Dresden, Tennessee was a hotbed of support for McMillin, while Taylor and Governor Frazier seemed to be the favorites in Humboldt. Lexington, Tennessee seemed to favor Benton McMillin, although the Tennessean\u2019s correspondent found that Governor Frazier \u201chas some strong friends\u201d in the area. Hardeman County appeared to be decidedly in favor of Robert L. Taylor. Friends of former governor McMillin gathered at the Duncan Hotel to ponder how best to promote their favorite\u2019s candidacy for the Senate before the legislature. While both Benton McMillin and Robert L. Taylor retained strong followings all across the state, Governor James B. Frazier had an advantage in being a popular incumbent with his fingers on the levers of power. Frazier easily won election to the United States Senate.\nRobert L. Taylor finally achieved his ambition of serving in the U. S. Senate when he won a primary election in 1906, defeating sitting Senator Edward Ward Carmack. Legislators promised to be bound by the decision of the voters. With the path to the Senate seemingly blocked for Benton McMillin, he had to consider other options. Perhaps hope flickered briefly when Taylor was convinced by party elders to run once again for governor in 1910. McMillin appeared to have finally reached his own goal of serving in the U. S. Senate that same year. Benton McMillin had won the primary election and campaigned throughout Tennessee in 1910 as the Democratic nominee for United States senator.\nMcMillin was touring his own Middle Tennessee at the beginning of July, speaking in his home city of Carthage, Shelbyville, Lewisburg, and Fayetteville. Still, some of McMillin\u2019s friends were suspicious a trade of some sort had been made by Robert L. Taylor and disgraced Governor Malcolm Patterson. The Tennessean published a report from Bristol, Tennessee, stating McMillin partisans worried the Patterson \u201cmachine is making of McMillin a mere stalking horse with no intention of electing him to the Senate is the belief of many here.\u201d In spite of McMillin having won the primary, the legislature still elected U. S. senators. Even though Malcolm Patterson had dropped his bid for a third term as governor, it was no secret he harbored senatorial ambitions of his own. The \u201cfusion\u201d movement of \u201cIndependent\u201d Democrats, those Democrats who had bolted because of Governor Patterson, allied with Republicans, proved to be a very real threat in the general election. Although he campaigned heartily for the Democratic ticket, Benton McMillin watched helplessly as \u201cOur Bob\u201d lost to Republican Ben W. Hooper. As it turned out, Benton McMillin\u2019s nomination for the U. S. Senate was up-ended by the same fusion movement in the legislature. While \u201cregular\u201d Democrats voted for McMillin for senator, independent Democrats divided their votes among other candidates, including the incumbent, James B. Frazier. After a deadlock, members of the legislature began withdrawing the names of several candidates and Luke Lea, publisher of the Tennessean was nominated. Lea was acceptable to the independent Democrats. Among those whose name had been withdrawn was Benton McMillin. Regular Democrats paid little attention to McMillin\u2019s withdrawal and stubbornly continued to vote for the former governor. On the final ballot, the presiding officer announced Luke Lea had 68 votes, Benton McMillin had 48 votes, and the rest were scattered between three other candidates, including Lawrence D. Tyson of Knoxville. Luke Lea was elected to the United States Senate.\nThe Democratic Party in Tennessee remained badly split and it was not surprising they turned to Benton McMillin to oust Governor Hooper in 1912. McMillin suffered the same fate as Bob Taylor, losing to Hooper, who was supported by a coalition of Republicans and Independent Democrats, in the general election.\nThe good news from the 1912 election was Woodrow Wilson winning the White House. Democrats had been denied the presidency since the last administration of Grover Cleveland and with power came patronage. McMillin was appointed by President Wilson to serve as Minister to Peru. From 1913 until 1922, Benton McMillin was a diplomat, serving as Minister to Peru until 1919, when he became the American Minister to Guatemala. Despite the fact the Republicans had won the presidency in 1920, Warren Harding did not seem to be in a hurry to replace Benton McMillin. The former governor finally resigned his post in 1922 to hurry home to Tennessee to wage yet another campaign for governor.\nThe 1920 election had been a boon for Republicans in Tennessee. Not only had Warren G. Harding carried Tennessee, but the Volunteer State had elected a Republican as governor. Alf Taylor, brother of the late Robert L. Taylor, had defeated incumbent Albert H. Roberts. Republicans had won five of Tennessee\u2019s nine congressional districts in the 1920 election, even managing to defeat Cordell Hull in McMillin\u2019s old Fourth Congressional District.\nIn the 1922 Democratic primary, the seventy-seven year old Benton McMillin vigorously stumped the state and faced a credible challenger in forty-six year old Austin Peay. McMillin demonstrated his strength despite not having won an election since 1900. The former governor won Hamilton County, lost Knox County by less than 200 votes, and carried Davidson County. McMillin was also strong in many of Tennessee\u2019s rural counties, especially inside the confines of his old congressional district. The difference was Shelby County, where Austin Peay won 9,079 votes to only 1,732 votes for McMillin. Peay also made a spectacular showing in his own Montgomery County, which he won 3,793 to a mere 130 votes for Benton McMillin. Ultimately, Benton McMillin won 59,992 votes to 63,940 votes for Austin Peay.\nBenton McMillin continued to be active in Tennessee\u2019s Democratic Party affairs, along with his wife, Lucille Foster McMillin. He made one last attempt to gain a seat in the U. S. Senate in 1930. McMillin\u2019s filed as a candidate for the \u201cshort term\u201d to fill the remainder of the term of the late Senator L. D. Tyson. It would be the last opportunity for the eighty-five year old former governor to serve in the Senate, albeit briefly. McMillin was to oppose the incumbent, William E. Brock of Chattanooga, who had been appointed to fill the vacancy left by Senator Tyson\u2019s death. At the end of July 1931, Benton McMillin announced he would not run for the Senate. The former governor had finally given up his ambition to return to Washington, D.C. as Tennessee\u2019s U.S. senator.\nThe eighty-seven year old Benton McMillin was seriously ailing in January of 1933. For fifty years, he had been one of the most prominent political figures in Tennessee. It is astonishing to think Benton McMillin was first elected to public office nine years after the end of the Civil War and he had managed the pre-convention presidential campaign of Franklin Roosevelt in 1932. Contracting pneumonia, former governor Benton McMillin told his doctor he felt \u201cfine\u201d immediately before lapsing into a coma and dying hours later. Tennessee\u2019s old \u201cDemocratic warhorse\u201d was gone.\nTennessee Governors & the Path to the US Senate, VIII added by design on November 18, 2018",

        "title": "Buyer's Agent | 3 Easy Strategies To Negotiate Commissions With Your Buyer's Agent - Boosting Your Home Value Before the Appraiser Arrives",
        "raw_content": "When you decide to buy a real estate property, you'll stand to benefit from having a professional buyers agent handle your affairs on your behalf. You can't always rely on the seller's agent to do what's in your best interest, so you hire a buyer's agent to negotiate a property price on your behalf. You usually pay a buyer's agent to search for homes independently and impartially for you. Some buyer's agents may charge fixed rates, while others may charge a percentage of the purchase price. Here are some strategies to put you in a better position to negotiate commissions with your buyer's agent.\nYou've probably been on the receiving end of competing with other people at your workplace, so now it's time to know how the other half live. Too many homebuyers make the mistake of approaching just one or two agents, so they don't have a proper benchmark to plan with. Create a competitive environment and ask multiple agents about their commission rates. This will help you determine whether you're being charged reasonably. You can use this as a stepping-stone to get your desired buyer's agent to match a better commission offer.\nDon't Fall For the Cheapest\nDon't make the mistake of falling for the cheapest quote you have been given. Keep in mind that many agents vary their fees based on their services offered. For example, some buyer's agents only offer negotiation services, while others offer full services that range from negotiation and closure to final signings and contracts. If a buyer's agent only offers negotiation services, their quote is likely to be less, but if you are looking for a full-service agent, then this doesn't meet your needs. Most buyer's agents charge fees based on search area, budget, difficulty degree and search requirements. For example, if you are looking for a home in a specific neighbourhood, the buyer's agent may be willing to quote a lower price. But if you want to look for homes across the city, it will naturally take up more time and cost you more. Keep all these factors in mind before agreeing upon a price and know that the cheapest may not always give you what you need.\nAgree to a Fixed Price Commission\nWhile many buyer's agents charge a percentage commission based on the purchase price of the home, you may want to lock in a fixed fee. This way there's no reason to solely focus on higher priced homes for better commissions. For example, you will only pay out the agreed upon fixed price regardless of the cost of the home. This will protect you from agents who attempt to find expensive homes with the purpose of earning more from their percentage-based commissions.\nUse these strategies when negotiating commissions with your buyer's agent.",

        "raw_content": "KINO CHILDHOOD CANCER\nBY FIONA MARCUS RAJA\nI hope this is never you. I never thought it would be me. But the unthinkable has happened and I have transitioned from a fulltime working mother of three beautiful boys to a fulltime caregiver to my child who is fighting for his life. Our lives have changed forever, from the moment I picked up my phone to hear my husband on the other end of the line, his voice all shaken, uttering the worst 3 words I would ever want to hear: \u201cROYCE HAS CANCER!\u201d Of course there is no way to truly convey how you feel as a parent when you find out this is your reality. And I hope you never have to fully understand.\nI have had so many people ask me what Royce's symptoms were and how, in two weeks, he went from seemingly perfectly happy and healthy to this. The answer is: I don't know either! It started innocuously with Royce complaining of tummy pain and then 5 minutes later he'd be running around like a crazy person again. I let it go. Normally I am super-paranoid about anything that isn\u2019t right with the kids or myself or in fact anyone in the family. I\u2019ve visited all the clinics in KPJ at least once for some discomfort or pain! Prior to the diagnosis, he had been admitted a few times \u2013 dehydration, suspected HFM and then tonsillitis. We even went to see a Chinese physician as a second option. But nothing seemed seriously out of the ordinary. Then, he began losing his appetite though was still very active and naughty. The doctors said this wasn\u2019t uncommon for toddlers and I thought back to a similar phase in our eldest, Ryan, when he refused everything. I consoled myself to not be paranoid. But a few days later, while I was giving him a shower, I realized that he had lost so much weight, his collarbones and rib cage were showing; he couldn\u2019t walk, or even stand straight. This didn\u2019t feel right. I had a flight to catch to Singapore that morning, but I rushed to get him admitted for some tests. I got on the flight to Singapore with a very heavy heart. Something didn\u2019t feel right.\nTesting, treatment, visits in and out of hospital; x-rays, ultrasounds,\nMRIs, biopsy, keyhole surgery and finally, chemotherapy.\nWhile I was walking on Orchard, I received the phone call from my husband. I was shaking; I didn\u2019t allow myself cry. So many questions; so many details that seemed insignificant at the time, suddenly started making sense. The size of the tumor was so big - I nearly passed out when Dr Siew said 10cm x 11cm in his abdomen. It was definitely cancer but we weren\u2019t sure if it was Wilms\u2019 tumor or Neuroblastoma. First I called hospitals all over Singapore, making appointments and arrangements. Then, I picked up my phone and called the first person I needed by my side.\nI often had to hold Royce down for a procedure with him yelling out:\n\u2018Why? No, Mummy, no! I don\u2019t want!\u2019\n\"The tumor was so big, but we weren't sure if it was Wilms\u2019\ntumor or Neuroblastoma...\"\nMy mother. I called her in Canada at 3am Canadian time. After I heard her voice, I broke down at last and started crying and told her I was scared and I didn\u2019t know what to do. She asked me if I wanted her back; I said yes! My mum and my step-dad took the first flight they could get on to Singapore to meet us.\nThat night I stayed at my uncle\u2019s house and cried my heart out the entire night; I couldn\u2019t eat or sleep. I kept blaming myself for letting my guard down. The one time I let it go, the one time I reminded myself that I shouldn\u2019t panic and consoled myself that it could just be a tummy flu or a phase, the worst thing that could happen, had happened. It was killing me inside to know that I couldn\u2019t hold my child in my arms now. I so wanted to wrap my arms around him at that moment. My poor baby. My poor child.\nI spent a sleepless night, scared, tearful and bewildered with the alarmingly low survival rates, treatments and stages of Neuroblastoma swirling in my head. As strange as it may sound, we were hoping for Wilms\u2019 tumour, which 9/10 children survive. We had gone from the excitement of organising my youngest son\u2019s first birthday to potentially having a very sick child in the space of a couple of days. I kept asking myself how could I have not known.\nAnd so it began. Testing, treatment, visits in and out of hospital; x-rays, ultrasounds, MRIs, biopsy, keyhole surgery and finally, chemotherapy. Neuroblastoma was confirmed - 3rd stage neuroblastoma and it had N-myc amplified genes. Our lives were turned upside down. Children with cancer are often described as brave but the reality is often difficult and painful and simply unfair. At only 2 years old, we never sat him down to tell him that he had cancer. We took the fight day-by day. He didn\u2019t understand what was going on but in the most part somehow grasped everything that should happen. So, if the nurses didn\u2019t complete a procedure properly, he wouldn\u2019t stop crying. As soon as they did, he would smile and wave them goodbye. But there were dark days. I often had to hold Royce down for a procedure with him yelling out: \u2018Why? No, Mummy, no! I don\u2019t want!\u2019 There were days of high fever, seclusion at home, diarrhea, vomiting and, of course, endless drugs and tests. Hospital visits became something we got used to - bag was always at the front door.\nIt has shattered the rhythm of all our lives. We went from having a schedule to not being able to spend time or even talk to my two other sons and check how they were doing in school. We were thankful to have my entire family helping out to hold our life together. Everyone helped out with care, accommodation, laundry, comfort. Even so, after two months, I realized I had run out of energy to catch up with my work, so I closed my businesses one by one. As our bills mounted, we began to live very moderately. Friends and family pitched in with fund-raisers and donations to help out on our medical bills. Especially for young parents like us, cancer can wipe out a family's savings. By the 6th month they were gone. Imagine spending in Singaporean dollar when we were only earning in Malaysian Ringgit.\nWe were thankful to have my entire family helping out to hold our life together.\nFor the entire year since July 2nd 2014, I have given up my entire life to take care of my sick child. Everyday we are set with new challenges and new things we have to learn. I hate cancer. I really do. I wish it were I bearing the pain instead. But one other thing has changed. I used to wish that he would forget all this, forget all the pain he suffered. Now, instead, I want him to be reminded about this journey, to share his stories with others and to help others who face the same challenges as he did. Because we must not keep quiet about childhood cancer, we must spread awareness of the things I wished I knew more before the day I found out Royce has cancer.\nFiona Marcus Raja has been a successful business woman including being the Managing director of the Sarawak Cruise until the day Royce fell sick. This mother of 3 - Ryan, Royce and Ryder - now dedicates her time to caring for her children. Born in Kuching, she is currently staying in Toronto for Royce\u2019s medical treatments.",

Our friendly, helpful staff would be glad to answer any questions you may have.\nFor any persons interested in a career with Lakeland Care, please feel free to visit & speak to our management staff who will be happy to advise you.\nFor more information on National Care Home Open Day - please click here to be directed to the website.\nPlease click here to see our latest update courtesy of The Cumberland News.\nIt's all steam ahead at Lakeland Care in 2018 as we continue to build on our long experience to develop new service offerings and exceed market expectations. Whilst we are always taking every opportunity to refurbish, redecorate and renew with the replacement of baths for wet room showers in en suite bathrooms for example, we are also now putting a programme in place to ensure that our staff take more of a key role in driving forward our care and quality standards.\nA key part of this initiative will be to give all staff, Carers and Support Staff alike, the opportunity if they so wish to take on more responsibility for ensuring the best of practice in key areas of care and 'hotel' services. Our plan is to draw from the staffing groups of each Home to create 'Champions' or 'Ambassadors of Excellence' for individual key areas of care and safety. In addition to our established mandatory training that maintains practice updates in all key areas, these 'Champions' will be expected to take a lead role in passing on their knowledge and expertise to colleagues in their specialist areas. One innovation with regard to infection control involves the supply of 'Bug Busting' hand washing points that use ultraviolet scanners to check for correct hand washing procedures.\nOne area of direct relevance to everyone whether living in a care home or not is of course nutrition and hydration. This week, 12th-19th March, is National Nutrition and Hydration Week. Nutrition and Hydration Week aims to highlight, promote and celebrate improvements in the provision of nutrition and hydration locally, nationally and globally. Along with placing a poster in the foyers of each Home to draw the attention of everybody to this essential area, each day we will be offering either a different refreshing drink or tasty, healthy nibbles to residents and visitors.\nLakeland Care will be introducing Manager Forums which will be held two or three times a year to help provide the opportunity for our managers to get together to discuss common issues and to share good practice with each other.\nWe will also be looking to increase the active involvement of our residents in developments in service provision and in the general facilities and physical environments provided by our Homes. We will be introducing 'Tasting Panels' to help update menus, and we will also explore the levels of interest that there might be for enhancing family hospitality and entertainment areas. For example, at Holmewood in Cockermouth, we will be adding a bar area where residents can relax with visitors and enjoy a quiet drink together.\nIn the course of the next two months we will also be replacing our minibus with a state of the art vehicle, in time for a full Summer programme of outings and excursions.\nWe look forward to announcing more updates over the coming months as we strive to ensure that our Homes play an essential part in their local communities, and can be regarded by everybody, whether residents or not, as a key community asset for the benefit of all.",

        "raw_content": "Global Fluff Pulp Market: Industry Analysis & Outlook (2017-2021)\nFluff Pulp, also known as fluffy pulp or comminution pulp, is a chemical pulp made of cellulose fibers obtained from long softwoods. Fluff pulp is usually bleached and produced in huge quantities worldwide due to its high bulkiness and high water absorbency. The most common raw material for fluff pulp is southern bleached softwood Kraft (SBSK). The main sources of SBSK are slash pine, longleaf pine, shortleaf pine, loblolly pine and Virginia pine. For fluff pulp, slash pine is preferred over other sources because of its thick fiber. Slash pine is a pine tree and usually found in Southeastern United States. More than 90% of fluff pulps are fully bleached and usually Kraft pulp. Kraft pulp, also called Sulfate pulp, consists of almost pure cellulose fiber. It is considered as the strongest pulp and has the least amount of Lignin.

        "raw_content": "Reading is a basic tool in the living of a good life. ~Joseph Addison\n4 Mini-Reviews in 4 Sentences\nSince I finished 5 books in the read-a-thon, I am now really behind on my reviews. I have been having a difficult time keeping up with my reviews in the past several months, so I'm going to be VERY brief--I'm going to try to do each review in only 4 sentences. We'll see how this goes!! (I am going to write a \"normal\" review for My Antonia since I only read part of it during the read-a-thon, and it is one of my books for the Classics Challenge).\nJulian Wainwright is an aspiring writer who falls in love in college. As he matures into a full-fledged adult, his life does not take the path he imagined, but he learns the value of love, trust, friendship and family.\nAs many people have mentioned in their reviews, this was definitely a character-driven novel, which I really like. The story is fairly slow-paced, but an enjoyable read.\n**** ***************************************************\nFire in the Blood by Irene Nemirovsky\nSilvio is an older man who lives in a small French village, and is most content when he is completely alone in his small house with a bottle of wine. He tries not to remember the love from his youth, and what secrets surround that love--secrets only known to himself and one other.\nI was disappointed in this novel, but maybe because I was reading it quickly during the read-a-thon. I felt no connection with any of the characters and though I was surprised to read the unexpected ending, I was a bit glad the novel was over.\nA very short tale about how the Queen of England accidentally checks out a book from a travelling library and her life and habits change dramatically. Her advisers don't know what has gotten into her, and they don't think it's a good idea for the Queen to always have her nose in a book.\nThough there are many great bookish quotes, I was also a bit disappointed in this book as well. Though I love reading myself, so I can understand what it is like to want to do nothing else but read, I did not really find this book to be amusing or thought-provoking. (Sorry)\nTristran Thorn is a young man who will do anything to capture the heart of the beautiful Victoria Forester. When he and Victoria see a falling star one evening, Tristran makes a daring promise that he will go through the forbidden gap in the Wall to find the fallen star and bring it back, if Victoria in turn will give him a kiss and her hand.\nStardust has a bit of everything that makes a story fun to read and memorable--adventure, magic, betrayal, a hero and love. This is my first Gaiman book, and it will not be my last!\nWhew--I did it! It is hard to be so brief because I have a lot more to say about several of these books. I think most of them have been reviewed about a million times though, so I probably don't have anything new to say!\nAll four books completed April 18-19, 2009\nNumber of pages: Matrimony-291; Fire in the Blood-138; The Uncommon Reader-120; Stardust-333\nPosted by Laura at 9:28 PM 13 comments\nRAT: Hour 24 and End of the Event Meme\nIt is now 6:20, and I'm not going to start a new book. I'll do the survey, see if anyone else is still awake, then go to bed myself! This has been a GREAT read-a-thon! Thank you to the hostesses and cheerleaders!! Now I just have to get caught up writing the reviews for all 5 books I finished.\nThese are my final numbers:\nAmount that will be donated to FirstBook: $52.50\nTotal time spent reading: 860 minutes\nTotal time spent blogging: 375 minutes\n1. Which hour was most daunting for you? probably 18 and 19\n2. Could you list a few high-interest books that you think could keep a Reader engaged for next year? Stardust was a good choice. The Glass Castle would be a good one as well.\n3. Do you have any suggestions for how to improve the Read-a-thon next year? having a list of mini-challenge ahead of time would be helpful\n4. What do you think worked really well in this year\u2019s Read-a-thon? The 3 hostess did SUCH a great job organizing the entire event!\n5. How many books did you read? 5--but I had already read about 1/3 of the first book\n6. What were the names of the books you read? My Antonia, Matrimony, Fire in the Blood, The Uncommon Reader, Stardust\n7. Which book did you enjoy most? Stardust\n8. Which did you enjoy least? Fire in the Blood\n9. If you were a Cheerleader, do you have any advice for next year\u2019s Cheerleaders? n/a\n10. How likely are you to participate in the Read-a-thon again? What role would you be likely to take next time? I would definitely participate in the read-a-thon as a reader again!\nPosted by Laura at 6:01 AM 21 comments\nR-A-T: Hours 22 & 23\nMy cat FINALLY jumped up on my lap to cuddle with me (at 5am). She's been in and out of the living room all day! I just finished Stardust, so I'm not really sure what to do. I'm going to spend some time blog hopping and seeing who is still awake. After that, there will be less than an hour left--should I start another book? It seems a little ridiculous to be up for 23 1/2 hours, but at the same time, starting another book seems a little ridiculous as well! Maybe there will be a end of the event mini-challenge that I can do! Anyways...I'm very rambly...I'm really not at all tired right now. I have that weird hungry-ish late night eating feeling though. Do you know what I'm talking about? I'm not actually hungry...anyways...REALLY rambly...\nNumber of pages since last update: 150\nTotal number of pages: 1050 (yay! 50 pages over my goal!)\nTime spent reading since last update: 78 min\nTotal time spent reading: 860 min (14.33 hours)\nTime spent blogging since last update: 30 min\nTotal time spent blogging: 345 minutes (5.75 hours)\nMini-challenges completed: 4--intro meme, You tube video challenge, non-fiction question, mid-event survey\nIs anyone else awake??\nSo it is 3:45 am here right now. It's funny how noticeable all the little noises around the house are at this hour. I'm still fairly awake-feeling, but my right eye is very stingy. I keep closing it and reading out of only my left eye. It's probably going to get mad at me too! I'm really liking Stardust, and it's moving very quickly. I'm not too far away from my 1000 page goal!\nTotal time spent reading: 782 min\n\">Fox Video\nFor some reason, this video made me laugh until I cried. I don't think it's supposed to be funny, but it was just very unexpected! Maybe you'll think it's funny, or maybe just interesting, but either way...it's a fun 60 seconds!\nI'm feeling pretty awake, but my hubby just went to bed (at 1:30 am), and I know lots of others have gone to bed, so this is when it starts to feel a little lonely for me. I just started Stardust, so hopefully that will be an engaging read.\nWell it's almost midnight here, and even with my fun IHOP break, I'm feeling a little restless. I keep putting my book down and just staring at the wall. Hopefully that will go away soon. I finished Fire in the Blood, and have moved onto An Uncommon Reader. It is nice and short, so that will feel good to finish a book quickly!\nNumber of pages since last update: 96\nI'm planning to post a funny 60 second YouTube video on my next update. I actually don't think it is intended to be funny, but for some reason, I think it's hilarious! Is everyone still awake and reading??\nR-A-T: Hours 13-15 and Mid-Event Survey\nI just had a very eventful hour 14, as I met up with Trish, Kari and Krystal (our unofficial cheerleader!) at IHOP. Blueberry pancakes=yummy deliciousness! We felt a little silly with our books and cameras, but our server was very kind in taking our pictures! It was a little difficult to concentrate on reading, as I tend to talk A LOT, and there was music playing, plus people to watch, but it was fun and a good break from being at home! I feel very wide awake now, thanks to the 2 1/2 cups of coffee.\nMy updated stats from the last post are:\n1. What are you reading right now? Fire in the Blood by Irene Nemirovsky\n2. How many books have you read so far? this is my 3rd\n3. What book are you most looking forward to for the second half of the Read-a-thon? reading The Uncommon Reader\n4. Did you have to make any special arrangements to free up your whole day? nope\n5. Have you had many interruptions? How did you deal with those? I've had almost zero interruptions all day. Hubby has been very considerate and has been outside or in the garage working on various projects. He is actually reading right now!\n6. What surprises you most about the Read-a-thon, so far? how quickly the time is going!\n7. Do you have any suggestions for how to improve the Read-a-thon next year? Everything has been really great, and I only have one suggestion. It would be helpful to have a list of the mini-challenges ahead of time, to make sure not to miss any.\n8. What would you do differently, as a Reader or a Cheerleader, if you were to do this again next year? I can't think of anything at the moment--maybe go to bed earlier the night before\n9. Are you getting tired yet? not yet...but I've had quite a bit of caffeine\n10. Do you have any tips for other Readers or Cheerleaders, something you think is working well for you that others may not have discovered? having a spreadsheet to keep track of pages, time spent reading and blogging, mini-challenges, etc. is really helpful. I don't know how I would keep track without it!\nI work and live in North Dallas with my husband and cat. Since I've loved reading for as long as I can remember, I have been having so much fun since I joined the book blogging community in April 2008. I am always open to opinions and recommendations!\n32.

        "raw_content": "Closed-shop legal definition of Closed-shop\nhttps://legal-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/Closed-shop\n(redirected from Closed-shop)\nA shop in which persons are required to join a particular union as a precondition to employment and to remain union members for the duration of their employment.\nThe federal National Labor Relations Act (NLRA) (29 U.S.C.A. \u00a7\u00a7 151 et seq.) protects the rights of workers to organize and bargain collectively and prohibits management from engaging in unfair labor practices that would interfere with these rights. Popularly known as the Wagner Act, the NLRA was signed into law by President franklin d. roosevelt on July 5, 1935.\nAmong the workers' rights legalized by the NLRA was the right to enter into a \"closed shop\" agreement. It differs from a union shop, in which all workers, once employed, must become union members within a specified period of time as a condition of their continued employment. Closed shop agreements ensured that only union members who were bound by internal union rules, including those enforcing worker solidarity during strikes, were hired.\nAs World War II ended a decade after the NLRA was enacted, unions sought to make up the pay cuts caused by wage freezes during the war, resulting in a rash of strikes. Many people viewed these strikes as economically destructive, and union practices, such as closed shop agreements, became increasingly unpopular. Critics of the closed shop contended that it allowed unions to monopolize employment by limiting membership or closing it altogether. They also argued that the closed shop allowed unions to force unwilling individuals to give them financial support.\nIn response to these criticisms, Congress amended the NLRA in 1947, with the adoption of the labor-management-relations act (29 U.S.C.A. \u00a7\u00a7 151 et seq.). Known as the Taft-Hartley Act, this law placed many restrictions on union activities. It limited picketing rights, banned supervisory employees from participating in unions, and restricted the right to strike in situations where the president of the United States and Congress determined that a strike would endanger national health and safety. The Taft-Hartley Act prohibited secondary boycotts, wherein a union incites a strike by employees of a neutral or \"secondary\" party, such as a retailer, in order to force the secondary party to cease doing business with the party with whom the union has its primary dispute, such as a manufacturer. The Taft-Hartley Act also allowed individual states to ban the union shop by passing Right-to-Work Laws that prohibited employees from being required to join a union as a condition of receiving or retaining a job.\nSection 8(a)(3) of the Taft-Hartley Act specifically outlawed the closed shop but did allow a collectively bargained agreement for a union shop, provided certain safeguards were met. Under the union shop proviso, a union and an employer could agree that employees must join the union within thirty days of employment in order to retain their jobs. Section 8(a)(3) stated, in relevant part,\nIt shall be an unfair labor practice for an employer\u2014\u2026 (3) by discrimination in regard to hire or tenure of employment or any term or condition of employment to encourage or discourage membership in any labor organization: Provided, that nothing in this subchapter, or in any other statute of the United States, shall preclude an employer from making an agreement with a labor organization \u2026to require as a condition of employment membership therein on or after the thirtieth day following the beginning of such employment or the effective date of such agreement \u2026 if such labor organization is the representative of the employees\u2026. Provided further, that no employer shall justify any discrimination against an employee for nonmembership in a labor organization (A) if he has reasonable grounds for believing that such membership was not available to the employee on the same terms and conditions generally applicable to other members, or (B) if he has reasonable grounds for believing that membership was denied or terminated for reasons other than the failure of the employee to tender the periodic dues and the initiation fees uniformly required as a condition of acquiring or retaining membership.\nSome observers believe that the Abolition of the closed shop helped to minimize racial discrimination by unions. The Wagner Act allowed unions to effectively shut out black employees from employment opportunities and benefits by simply refusing them membership. The Taft-Hartley Act curtailed this practice by prohibiting the negotiation of security agreements that limited employment opportunities to union members.\nBaker, Joan E. 1989. \"NLRA Section 8(a)(3) and the Search for a National Labor Policy.\" Hofstra Labor Law Journal 7 (fall).\nBallam, Deborah A. 1995. \"The Law As a Constitutive Force for Change, Part II: The Impact of the National Labor Relations Movement on the U.S. Labor Movement.\" American Business Law Journal 32.\nDevaney, Dennis M., and Susan E.

Sirius can be seen from any area of Earth except the most northern ones.\nMany ancient civilizations placed an emphasis on Sirius. The inhabitants of the Nile valley worshipped the star as the goddess Sopdet \u2013 the incarnation of Isida in the sky. Ancient Egyptians based their calendar year on the period between two heliacal risings of Sirius.\nIn Sumero-Akkadian astronomy the star was called the Arrow and was associated with the god Ninurta. Greeks connected Sirius with summer heat. The name of the star comes from a word which means hot day. The Latin name of Sirius, Canicula, was transformed to the Slavic version of the word vacation because the Roman Senate declared resting days during periods of the hottest summer days when the star appeared in the morning sky.\nLegenda Sirius Collection is represented by Legenda wrist watches with automatic and manual winding movements in watch cases made of precious metals, 38mm diameter, sapphire crystal and straps made of natural leather of rare animals.",

        "raw_content": "A Travesty Of Errors\nLast night in the yankees-Angels game, A-Rod reached on an error by the third baseman, allowing the go-ahead (at the time) run to score. I had it on the radio as my computer is in a different room than the tv. John Sterling treated it as if A-Rod had done something great, getting all excited about the play as if it were a home run. And then, slyly, he says, \"It's an unearned run, but they all count the same, heh heh.\" Disgusting. But it gets worse.\nCharley Steiner then sums up the play by describing A-Rod as a five-tool player, and in that case, his fifth tool was speed in beating out the play.\nOkay, stop right there. He didn't beat out an infield hit. He REACHED ON AN ERROR. There is no point in complimenting A-Rod in that situation. He came up in a key spot, and hit a routine grounder to third. That's all he did. If you want to compliment A-Rod, you'll just have to wait until he does something good. Just say, \"The yanks got lucky there,\" move on, and shut the hell up about A-Rod.\nBut it gets worse still.\nToday on Michael Kay's radio show, Kay is recapping the game, and says something about how Jeter and A-Rod had key hits. Could he be talking about the error play? Nah, he wouldn't call that a hit... But he was talking about the error. He says Jeter got a hit, and then A-Rod beat out a throw on an error, referring to what he just called a hit. And he emphasized \"beat out\" so we'd know how important it was. The point is, the guy bobbled the ball, it was an error, and that's all it was.\nIn the ninth, Mariano came in the game, and after getting a hometown called strike three that you won't hear about in the papers, a rookie came up who hadn't had a major league hit yet. After strike one, Kay says, \"they don't pitch like Mariano Rivera in double-A.\" Ohhhh man, at that point I knew this guy was getting a hit. And when, of course, he did, Kay says how he must be so thrilled to get his first hit off of one of the greatest relievers ever. Then Ken Singleton imitates the guy saying, \"I got my first hit off the great Mariano Rivera.\" Shut up!!!! Yeah, you know what, this just in, the guy has RETIRED, saying, \"I got my hit off a great yankee, my lifelong dream has been fulfilled.\"\nGimme a break. Then the next batter homered and Mariano blew the save. Unfortunately, the yanks won in extras, leaving the magic number at 130 thru 5/11.\nI'm off to Fenway now for my 1,000,000th time seeing Wakefield start.\nThe ME-dia\nI'm gonna sum up my view on the media, in case you are new to this blog.\nI guess there really are people in the world who believe anything they read. But I would think that members of the media could never be in this category, but they are. I mean, why wouldn't you use the oppurtunity you have to say what you think? Some people in the media make it so obvious that they are simply repeating what someone else said or wrote. A good example is the way your average media schmoes, who haven't made a name for themselves, say that Pedro Martinez' career is over. These people don't watch Pedro pitch. They just say what everyone else is saying. Pedro's one of the best pitchers in baseball, why won't one person in the New York media come out and say, \"I think he might have a good year this year.\"\nIt's a very timid way to live, if you ask me. Whether you're just following the party line, or pretending you came up with an opinion that someone else really did, you're not doing your job. (Another example is the Quantrill/Gordon thing...sift through this blog to learn more, I really can't get into it now, it's late.) When I started this blog, I didn't say, Woohoo, I get to read what other people are saying and then say the same thing!\nOn the contrary. When Ed from Bambino's Curse starts kowtowing to George Steinbrenner, coincidentally (?) right when he starts working for Fox again, I (sorry, I have to interrupt myself, yankee announcer Charley Steiner just said, \"The Amazing Mr. Quantrill\"). Anyway, Ed said the usual crap about George being a great owner who ALWAYS spends his money for his team. Remember, when---(sorry, again, Steiner: \"Paul Quantrill: Mr. Automatic.\" He's saying it all nonchalantly. The yankees are going down. Have I mentioned how nauseating this team and everything about them is?) Oh, so when yankee fans tell you that George always does what it takes to win, answer them with two words: Andy Pettitte. (see my April 13th post)\nOh and when they say how he's \"not evil, just because he's passionate about the game,\" feel free to mention to them how he made illegal campaign contributions to Richard Nixon and was convicted. And paying off Howie Spira to get dirt on Dave Winfield. (In both cases he was suspended from baseball.) And then have them write a letter to ten random employees of Mr. Steinbrenner and ask them how they're treated. They might get one positive response back if they're lucky.\nBut it's obviously not just yankee fans who say this nonsense, as Ed has proved. I think the problem might be that we all hear a lot of players saying good things about George. But these guys are the same people who, when asked about their hated rival, will say, \"I have all the respect in the world for those guys. They're the best team I've ever played against. They deserve to be in first place.\" You know when the reporters leave, that same player goes, \"God I hate those guys! We're gonna kick their asses!\" The reason they don't say that stuff in public is so they don't make the opponent mad, hence giving them a competetive edge.\nBut the media and (especially) the fans, i.e. bloggers, message board members, basically anyone who's not actually playing, can say whatever they want! That's right, we have the option of telling the truth! All the time! So there's no need for some blogger from Dubuque to say, \"I have all the respect in the world for (insert local face of evil here).\" Just say what you really think! You can't get fired... Unless you work for Fox, I guess.\nSo as the media slowly becomes the ME-dia,(see my April 7th post) the further down the totem pole the lies go. So if you're just a fan, remember, keep searching for the truth, and say it as loud as you can. And if you should get a chance to move up the ladder, don't let that truth fall out of your pocket, because once you get back to the bottom to get it, you're probably stayin' there.\nMagic Moments At Fenway\nNot tonight, of course, as Lou Merloni and the Tribe beat the Sox. But I never did get to write about my \"magic moments\" from my last Fenway trip. So here goes.\nApril 28th vs. Tampa Bay. Manny at the plate. I see a star in the sky (which really was a planet, as you can't see stars at Fenway Park, what with the bright lights). So I say, \"I wish I may, I wish I might, I wish Manny hits a dong.\" Then I say to the star-wishing gods, \"Sorry for the incorrect wording.\" Manny proceeds to hit what would've been an HR Puf'n'stuf in any other park, but it slammed into the Monster for a two-baggger. I'll take that, I thought. Then Jason comes up, and I say to Pat, \"Can you wish more than once on the first \"star\" as long as another has yet to appear?\" He says, \"I don't know, but I'd wish again.\" So I silently wish for Jason to equal Manny, and he hits one that almost reaches us in row 31 of the bleachers.\nThen between innings, the scorebard says, \"Fenway Magic Moments.\" So I say to Pat, \"I better see the Brunansky catch.\" Well, not only do I see it, but the whole \"segment\" is dedicated to that game, culminating with the catch and the pandemonium.\nI had just read how a guy named Mike Donovan videotaped the catch, and it was shown on the news once, but then everyone criticized him for having a camera at the game, and the tape was never circulated widely--so the media can keep mystery in the catch, which supposedly may not have been a catch at all. So I did some research, but couldn't find anything else about this tape. But I found a woman on line who was at the game. She recalled for me her memories of that game, but said she didn't have an angle on the Bruno play.\nSo getting back to a few weeks ago--after the segment finishes on the scoreboard, the guy next to us says, \"I was here for that game!\" I enthusiastically ask, \"So did he catch it??\" \"Yeah, he says, \"I was right here in the bleachers, had a perfect view!\"\nSo I now I am convinced. Bruno caught that ball.\nSorry to my mom & dad, who saw the Sox lose tonight with tickets I gave them.\nPig & A Poke\nPossibly my favorite play in baseball is a ball hit down the right field line at Fenway Park that rolls around the corner, like a hockey puck curving along the boards, as a helpless visiting outfielder chases after it. Today that happened, and Pokey got a home run the hard way. Which I guess is the easy way for him. But then he got one the other way anyway.\nPokey rules. And speaking of dudes \"with the tilted brim,\" Snoop Dogg was pretty funny on SNL tonight. The good thing about the yankees winning in Seattle was that once it was 6-0, I got to just watch SNL without switching back to the game any more. So anyway, in this one sketch, Snoop is hanging out at a party, and he's all depressed. When asked why, he says it's because the show \"Friends\" is off the air. He proceeds to go into a long soliloquy about his passion for the sitcom. \"What I am supposed to do now?\" etc. He actually acted it really good. My favorite line was when his friend tells him he can just watch the reruns, and Snoop snaps back, \"I'll smack you in the mouth--talkin' 'bout reruns...\" He also told white America to cool it on the \"izzle,\" and how it was a gift from him, but it's time to chill for a while. He mentioned how whiteys used to be so big on Pig Latin, so maybe they could go back to that to change things up a little. \"Ee-way ool-Cay?\"\nThe agic-May umber-Nay thru 5/8 is 131.",

        "title": "Glorious Beale Street | Liberty Unbound",
        "raw_content": "\u201cEvery black person born in America was born on Beale Street, born in the black neighborhood of some American city,\u201d James Baldwin wrote in the 1974 novel on which Barry Jenkins\u2019 film If Beale Street Could Talk is based. It refers to an area of Memphis important to African-Americans, designated by an act of Congress as \u201cthe Home of the Blues.\u201d\nIn the 1860s black traveling musicians began performing there; they eventually developed a genre known as Memphis Blues, led by such legends as B.B. King, Louis Armstrong, Muddy Waters, Rosco Gordon, Memphis Minnie, Albert King, and Rufus Thomas. B.B. King was once billed as \u201cthe Beale Street Blues Boy.\u201d\nAn astute real estate developer, Thomas Church, became the first black millionaire in the South after he bought land along Beale Street following a devastating yellow fever epidemic. The famous Church Park, a cultural and recreational center where blues musicians gathered, is named for him, not for a religious organization.\nBy the 1960s Beale Street had fallen on hard times. Many businesses had closed, and a disastrous urban renewal program had torn down many of the historic buildings.\nIn 1869 a congregation of freed slaves began building the Beale Street Baptist Church. Besides the congregation, it housed the newspaper offices of civil rights journalist Ida B. Wells. Such notables as Ulysses S. Grant and Teddy Roosevelt spoke there, while Booker T. Washington, Woodrow Wilson, and FDR spoke at the 2,000-seat auditorium in Church Park.\nHowever, by the 1960s Beale Street had fallen on hard times. Many businesses had closed, and a disastrous urban renewal program had torn down many of the historic buildings and the neighborhoods surrounding it instead of renewing them. In April 1968 Martin Luther King, Jr. was assassinated not far from Beale Street.\nEventually the neighborhood was restored by the racially diverse Beale Street Development Corporation, and the area is now a popular tourist destination featuring the Beale Street Music Festival in early May each year. Beale Street\u2019s development is tightly controlled by the city of Memphis, the BSDC, and a management company.\nIn so many ways, the story of Beale Street is an apt metaphor for the African-American experience \u2014 artistically gifted, entrepreneurially astute, politically active, brought down by neglect and resentment, and then restored by a consortium of well-intentioned but often misguided do-gooders who have changed the essence of what it once was.\nIn one particularly beautiful scene, the smoke from Fonny's cigarette swirls around a sculpture and jazz music swirls around the scene as he coaxes the wood into submission to his art.\nBeale Street is also an apt metaphor for the characters in Jenkins\u2019 movie If Beale Street Could Talk. A love story at heart, the film uses flashbacks to show how Tish (KiKi Layne) and Fonny (Stephan James) grew up as childhood friends, fell in love as teenagers, planned a future that included marriage and family, and saw their plans destroyed when Fonny was falsely accused of a heinous crime.\nAlthough the movie takes place in Harlem, the characters represent different aspects of the Beale Street story. Fonny is an artist with big dreams. In one particularly beautiful scene, the smoke from his cigarette swirls around a sculpture and jazz music swirls around the scene as he coaxes the wood into submission to his art. Tish\u2019s mother, Sharon (Regina King), works tirelessly against injustice, and Tish\u2019s sister Ernestine (Teyonah Parris) is a rising activist who tells Tish at one point, \u201cUnbow your head, sister, and do not be ashamed.\u201d\nTish and Fonny\u2019s fathers (Colman Domingo and Michael Beach) are both hardworking entrepreneurs. (Well, OK, they aren\u2019t entirely legal, but they justify their black-market business by saying, \u201cI never met a white man who didn\u2019t lie and steal.\u201d And in truth, Fonny is in jail because false witnesses have been suborned against him.) Fonny\u2019s mother (Aunjanue Ellis) represents the church in the black community \u2014 moral and austere. And of course the urban renewal board is represented by the overzealous justice system that intends to clean up Harlem by putting the young black men in jail \u2014 whether they\u2019re guilty or not.\nJazz and the blues also play central roles in this film. The soundtrack, mostly performed as string adagios, is bluesy, haunting, and full of despair, an emotion created by the close, discordant, unresolved harmonies and the deep, slow vibration of the bow across the bass strings. At the end, the credits roll to the sound of Billy Preston and Joseph Green\u2019s slow, jazzy, plaintive \u201cMy Country \u2019tis of Thee.\u201d If ever there was a time for singing the Beale Street blues, this is it.\nOK, they aren\u2019t entirely legal, but they justify their black-market business by saying, \u201cI never met a white man who didn\u2019t lie and steal.\u201d\nAlthough Baldwin describes the young lovers in his novel as plain and unattractive, Jenkins chose to cast his Tish and Fonny with two astonishingly beautiful young actors. KiKi Layne radiates wide-eyed innocence mingled with tough determination, and Stephan James is not only handsome but also blessed with kind eyes and a warm smile. Who wouldn\u2019t be drawn to them? Studies show that we trust and like attractive people more readily than ugly people, and clearly Jenkins was not going to take any chance that the audience might not sympathize with his protagonists. Mind you, I\u2019m not complaining about the casting; it was a pleasure watching these two fall in love on screen.\nWe don\u2019t learn the nature of the crime with which Fonny has been charged until 45 minutes into the movie, although we learn in the first five minutes that he is in jail. Jenkins also softens the scene of the first sexual encounter between the two by having Fonny gently cover Tish\u2019s naked breasts with a blanket in a gesture that is both protective and romantic. It subtly tells us that Fonny could not have done what he is charged with; he just isn\u2019t that kind of guy.\nSadly, under our flawed, overcrowded, injustice system, it doesn\u2019t much matter whether a person is guilty or innocent, especially if the person is poor or black. Most never go to trial. In fact, according to legal scholar William J. Stuntz, an astounding 94% of state felony convictions and 97% of federal convictions stem from plea bargains. If you can\u2019t afford bail, you\u2019ll sit in jail, waiting for your day in court, often for months and sometimes for years. So you take the deal and the record, just to get out of jail and back to your life. As Tish says to the audience in voiceover narration, \u201cI hope that no one has to talk to anyone they love through a glass.\u201d\nFaced with the prospect of 30-to-life for a trial conviction versus 8-to-10 for a plea deal, even an innocent person is likely to take the deal.\nMoreover, plea bargains have now become the safer bet in a legal system where freedom hangs on how a jury interprets the evidence and the defendant. Faced with the prospect of 30-to-life for a trial conviction versus 8-to-10 for a plea deal, even an innocent person is likely to take the deal. The deadly \u201cto life\u201d tacked on to many sentences today is especially chilling for the innocent; how can you convince the parole board of your remorse for a crime you did not commit?\nThe routine indeterminate sentencing of \u201cto life,\u201d which is bad for many reasons, was created three generations ago by liberal reformers. Its heyday is long past and needs to be eliminated, along with mandatory sentencing and three-strikes rules, to allow judges to judge and prisoners to have hope.\nIf Beale Street Could Talk presents a powerful story of love, loss, and loyalty. Baldwin\u2019s 1974 portrayal of the injustice of our court system is just as true today. Barry Jenkins\u2019 film version is not completely true to the novel, nor should it be \u2014 film is a visual and aural genre and needs to be adapted accordingly. The film is beautiful to watch, even though it is heartbreaking to comprehend.\nEditor's Note: Review of \"If Beale Street Could Talk,\" directed by Barry Jenkins. Annapurna, 2018, 119 minutes.",

        "raw_content": "For all of you said little prayers, thought good thoughts, sent positive vibes (especially the Fairy Vibes...thanks Tom!), pressed or held thumbs, crossed fingers and toes, or asked the universe to be kind...\nThanks! You did it!\nI am now professionally proficient in Estonian.\nI actually thought I had blown it.\nI was convinced that had screwed up the reading portion. The reading portion has two parts. In the first, you have six minutes to give the gist of six short articles. Based on how you do with those, they give you two long articles to read.\nI had some trouble with the gisting. And I thought the articles they gave me were fairly easy.\nSo I assumed that meant that they had given me easier articles...meaning articles that would not get me a high enough score.\nI even texted my wife that I had a bad feeling.\nBut alas...something worked. The examiner seemed surprised when I said I thought I screwed up the reading...she thought I did well. She said I had a broad vocabulary and was very fluent too. Yay!\nAlso a yay...checking a senior foreign service \"box.\" You now have to get a 3/3 in a hard language at some point in your career to cross the SFS threshhold. I don't actually expect to make Senior Foreign Service...I just want to have a fun career in cool places and get to retire with my pension. But I don't want to be excluded from it.\nSo now I can relax...because I have three years to reach my self-inflicted goal of a 4/4 (professional fluency).\nThe End begins in 24 hours and 15 minutes.\nThat is when my language test starts.\nI am nervous. With Hebrew, it was easy. Aside from the fact that Hebrew is a much easier language, I only needed a 2/2. And I knew from my progress tests that the only question was how much higher than that would I get.\nFirst, Estonian is HARD! Really freakin' hard.\nAND, I need a 3/3.\nWorst case scenario is that I fall short...then I get extended in language for a few more weeks and retest. Given that my wife will be here until late January, that isn't such a bad thing.\nEven so, I really hate to fail.\nSo here is where I ask you for a favor. Could you all please please please send me as many positive thoughts and prayers as you can? Cross your fingers and toes, hold or press your thumbs, or whatever your personal means of attracting good things from the universe.\nI need it. And I would appreciate it!\nThe Last Area Studies\nYou thought I forgot, right?\nSo Thursday was our last area studies. A larger number than I expected showed up, I suspect so they could fill out the course evaluations.\nThe professor told us there was an 800-word limit per question when he saw how much we were writing...of course, he wasn't actually supposed to be in the room watching us fill out the evaluations. He didn't leave until everyone had turned theirs in.\nAt least he did not make us watch a Woody Allen film (Death and Love, I think)...instead we watched The Pianist.\nYep...another movie...at least on topic (Poland)....but on the week before most of us have our final tests.\nVideo: Secretary Clinton at Pride Event\nLabels: GLIFAA, Pride Month\nTranscripts of Secretary Clinton's Remarks for Pride\nAt an event co-hosted by the Department of State and Gays and Lesbians in Foreign Affairs Agencies (GLIFAA) in celebration of LGBT Pride Month\nSECRETARY CLINTON: (Applause.) Thank you all. Thank you. Thank you all very much. Thank you.\nWell, this is an especially momentous and extraordinary time for us to meet for the State Department\u2019s annual Pride celebration, the third event we\u2019ve had here at State since I became Secretary, and the first following the historic vote in New York, which I think gives such visibility and credibility to everything that so many of you have done over so many years, because I look out at this audience and I see a lot of familiar faces of people who have been on the frontlines for many years and have worked so diligently and smartly for the progress that we are seeing.\nI do want to recognize, in addition to John, Patrick, and Arturo, who have already been mentioned, Under Secretary Otero and Assistant Secretary Posner and USAID Deputy Director Steinberg and Deputy Assistant Secretary Baer and all who have led our efforts, including Counselor Mills, to protect the rights and well-being of LGBT people worldwide. And I thank Jon Tollefson and GLIFAA for being an invaluable partner in coordinating personnel and policy matters here at State. I\u2019m very honored to receive this award. It really belongs to all of you and so many others in recognition of the work that we\u2019ve had the opportunity to do together to advance equality around the world.\nIt is an inspiration, however, to keep working, because we have a long way to go toward a world that affords all people the respect, dignity, and equality that they are entitled to. So in that vein, I wanted to share just a few stories from the past year that I hope will keep us going because they are stories of perseverance and creativity by our Foreign Service officers and civil servants who are representing the United States.\nIn Honduras, as many of you know, anti-gay violence increased significantly in 2009 and 2010. More than 30 LGBT people were murdered and the investigations into those crimes appeared to be going nowhere. Then our Embassy team got involved. They publicly called on the Honduran Government to solve the murders, bring the perpetrators to justice, do more to protect all Hondurans from harm. Soon after, the government announced it was creating a taskforce to investigate and prevent hate crimes. And with the help of a United States prosecutor and detective, which our Embassy arranged to be made available to assist in this effort, we are making progress. And I particularly want to thank and recognize Assistant Secretary Valenzuela, because it was his leadership on this issue that really made a difference.\nIn Slovakia, the country\u2019s first-ever Pride parade last year ended in violence. So this year, our Embassy staff worked overtime to help make the parade a success. They brought together more than 20 chiefs of mission from other nations to sign a public statement of support for the march. They hosted a respectful, productive debate on LGBT rights. And on the day of the parade, our ambassador marched in solidarity right next to the mayor of Bratislava.\nAnd then there is the work that our Embassy team in Rome has been doing. Two weeks ago, they played an instrumental role in bringing Lady Gaga to Italy for a EuroPride concert. (Laughter.) Now, as many of you know, Lady Gaga is Italian American and a strong supporter of LGBT rights. And the organizers of the EuroPride event desperately wanted her to perform, and a letter to her from Ambassador Thorne was instrumental in sealing the deal. Over 1 million people attended the event, which included powerful words in support of equality and justice.\nAnd then there is the tremendous work that our diplomats have been doing in regional and international institutions to strengthen a shared consensus about how governments should treat their citizens. And we\u2019ve made the message very consistent and of a high priority. All people\u2019s rights and dignity must be protected whatever their sexual orientation or gender identity.\nIn March, President Obama and Brazilian President Rousseff announced their shared support for the creation of a special rapporteur for LGBT rights within the Inter-American Commission for Human Rights. And we have our Bureau for Western Hemisphere Affairs and our permanent mission to the OAS to thank for that.\nAlso in March, the United States led a major effort at the Human Rights Council in Geneva to get other countries to sign on in support of a statement on ending violence and criminalization based on sexual orientation and gender identity. In the end, 85 countries signed the statement, 18 more than ever had signed onto any previous UN statement on LGBT rights.\nAnd in the very next session of the Human Rights Council, just two weeks ago after another major push by American diplomats in Geneva as well as our teams from IO, DRL, EUR, WHA, and other bureaus, the Council passed the first ever UN resolution recognizing the human rights of LGBT people worldwide. And it was especially meaningful that we had South Africa cosponsoring that resolution with us. And with that we took a huge step forward in our work to refute the hateful suggestion that LGBT people are somehow exempt from human rights protections, and we made it absolutely clear that, so far as the United States is concerned and our foreign policy, and our values - that gay rights are human rights and human rights are gay rights.\nNow, it is not just momentous achievements like the Human Rights Council resolution that contribute to progress; it is the day-to-day work of our embassies and AID missions around the world to increase engagement around the issues affecting LGBT rights, especially in those places where people are at risk of violence, discrimination, or criminalization. That\u2019s a concern that Johnnie Carson, our assistant secretary for African Affairs, who is currently on travel to Africa, raises regularly with his African leader counterparts; the op-ed that our ambassador to Barbados wrote in support of LGBT rights; the work that our Eric Schwartz, our assistant secretary for Population, Refugees, and Migration is doing to lead the training of humanitarian workers to better protect and assist LGBT refugees and asylum seekers; the discussions that undersecretary Maria Otero led about the human rights of LGBT people in our first Global Issues Dialogue with Norway.\nAnd so I want to applaud all of our diplomats and our development experts who continue to reach out to those advocating around the world in Uganda, Malawi, Russia, Turkey, China, and so many other places. Our colleagues are meeting with human rights activists, health authorities, youth activists, sex workers, the full range of people who are involved in and working to protect LGBT people\u2019s rights and lives. This is people-to-people diplomacy at its best.\nNow, all this progress is worth celebrating, but we cannot forget how much work lies ahead. Because let\u2019s just face the facts: LGBT people in many places continue to endure threats, harassment, violence \u2013 including sexual violence \u2013 in public and private. They continue to flee their homes and nations and seek asylum because they are persecuted for being who they are. They continue to be targeted for trying to build public support through pride activities such as parades. And what we have long thought is becoming the case, and that is if we can convince people to speak out about their own personal experiences, particularly within their own families, it does begin to change the dialogue.\nIf you followed closely, which I\u2019m sure all of you did, the debate in New York, one of the key votes that was switched at the end was a Republican senator from the Buffalo area who became convinced that it was just not any longer fair for him to see one group of his constituents as different from another. Senators stood up and talked about nieces and nephews and grandchildren and others who are very dear to them, and they don\u2019t want them being objectified or discriminated against. And from their own personal connections and relationships, they began to make the larger connection with somebody else\u2019s niece or nephew of grandchild and what that family must feel like.\nSo we have to continue to stand up for the rights and the well-being of LGBT people, and sometimes it\u2019s hard when you\u2019re in the middle of a long campaign to see where you\u2019re getting. But I\u2019ve always believed that we would make progress because we were on the right side of equality and justice. Life is getting better for people in many places, and it will continue to get better thanks to our work. So I ask all of you to look for ways to support those who are on the front lines of this movement, who are defending themselves and the people they care about with great courage and resilience. This is one of the most urgent and important human rights struggles of all times. It is not easy, but it is so rewarding.\nPride month is a time for gratitude, for joy, and of course, for pride \u2013 pride in ourselves, in our families and friends, in our colleagues, in our community. And at the State Department, there are so many reasons for pride, and the same is true for all of our foreign affairs agencies represented here, from AID to the Peace Corps and others, because we do have so many talented people, and we have so many who are LGBT serving our nation with honor, courage, and skill. And shortly, our military partners will be able to say the same.\nSo think of the amazing work that has been done in the last year or two, because it truly is a great tribute to those who have fought for these rights, for those who have sacrificed for them, and mostly for our country, because it is our country and our values that truly are being put at the forefront.\nAnd so I say to all of you, thank you. You make our country proud and you make me proud as the Secretary of State to work with you and serve with you every day. But please don\u2019t forget that for every proud moment we can share together, there are so many around the world who live in fear, who live in shame, who live in such difficult circumstances. And our work must continue until they have the same opportunity that all of you and so many other Americans have, which is to be recognized for who you are and to be given the respect that you so richly deserve.\nLabels: GLIFAA, Hillary Clinton, Pride Month\nHail to the Chief!: GLIFAA Election Results\nGLIFAA recently held their annual election, and here are the results:\nTJ Lunardi\nJohn Wiecking\nPublic Affairs/Communications:\nKen Kero-Mentz\nCongratulations all!

I finally obtained a temporary job in 1980 as a clerk with the US Army Recruiting station at the Federal Building in Syracuse, NY. I then went to work for the Defense Contract Management Agency (DCMA) in October 1980. In July 1989, I transferred from New York to Florida. During my tenure at DCMA, I served in positions as either an administrative contracting officer or as a property administrator.\nI worked with INL/RM in 1994 and 1995, and came back from DOD in November 2004. I work as a Property Administrator and travel to countries such as Colombia, Guatemala, Peru, Bolivia, Pakistan, Iraq, Jordan, and Afghanistan. My job of oversight on the Air Wing program is to ensure that all government property, which includes aircraft (both fixed and rotary wing) and parts/supplies, are properly controlled and accounted for on a program that is worth over $1.5 Billion.\nI obtained my master\u2019s degree in contract management in December 2005 and have almost 37 years with the U.S. Government.\nReservations with reservations\nSo I have my reservations for a flight into Estonia...but I don't have the ticket yet.\nAs far as I knew, Scandinavian Airlines was the only airline flying to Tallinn that allowed birds. So I go to the travel office and tell them this is they flight I need.\nScandinavian has no government fare. The flight they recommend is United via Amsterdam. It costs about $1600 less. $1600 the government *might* want me to cover.\nSigh...that is less than using a pet shipping company...\nAnyway, I had them make the reservations but not buy the ticket while I went to check with United on their bird policy.\nAccording to the website, she can fly in cabin. Big score...it means only having to have Cayenne in cargo for the Amsterdam to Tallinn leg of the trip.\nBut first I should verify that with a human being...because you know how these things go, right.\nSo maybe by tomorrow, I will have paid tickets. And just hope nothing changes.\nSeriously...she is a bird...maybe I should just make her fly there on her own!\nFRIDAY: Pride Reception with Ambassador Susan Rice\nJoin GLIFAA for a 2011 GLIFAA Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender (LGBT) Pride Month Reception with Special Guest Ambassador Susan Rice - U.S. Permanent Representative to the United Nations.\nDelegates Lounge\nOutside guests please provide Full Name, Date of Birth, and Drivers License (or other ID) number; please arrive 30 minutes prior to event for security screening.\n2011 LGBT Pride Month: William H Boyle\nWilliam Boyle is a management-coned generalist, currently serving as management counselor in Stockholm. He entered the Foreign Service in 1999 and has also served in Manila, Copenhagen, Hong Kong, Islamabad, and Hyderabad. William was an attorney before joining the Department, and he met his partner while working at a U.S. law firm in Frankfurt, Germany.\nWilliam's partner is a citizen of Mauritius with a PhD in tourism management, and he is currently an assistant professor of marketing at Stockholm University. After 14 years as a couple, they were finally able to legally marry in Washington, D.C. in July 2010\u2014and they are proud to have held their ceremony at the headquarters of the Human Rights Campaign, where the first same-sex marriage in Washington took place.\nUnfortunately, William's partner still does not have the legal right to reside in the United States, but the couple is hopeful that the laws will change in time for them to retire to Portsmouth, New Hampshire. In spite of the personal and professional challenges of being a bi-national couple, they love the work and lifestyle of the Foreign Service, especially since benefits were extended to same-sex partners in 2009.\nYou would think that as a former journalist, I would like interviewing.\nAnd in English, you would be right. I am very comfortable with it. I enjoy it. I like seeing where a question can take you.\nBut in Estonian, you would be wrong. Very wrong.\nDo. Not. Like.\nI know we need to practice it in class, though it isn't something we do all that often. We devote much more time to reading and speaking at length.\nBut this is my least favorite part of the test. And, I think, my weakest area.\nI have trouble not getting into the answers and using those to segway to other questions. I understand most of what is being said to me.\nBut then I have to report back what I heard...and inevitably, I forget half of what was said.\nWhy don't you take notes, you ask. Geez, why didn't I think of that?\nActually I did. And I have tried. But I don't yet feel competent to take notes in Estonian. And if I take them in English, the switching back and forth between the two languages makes me miss much of what I am hearing. Because my understanding is better if I don't try to translate.\nAll of this is to say that my brain hurts. Only a week and one day before my test.\n2011 LGBT Pride Month: Wesley Reisser\nWesley Reisser is a member of the State Department\u2019s civil service, where he has spent the past eight years working mostly on Middle Eastern issues, first serving as the consular desk officer for Israel, Egypt, Yemen, and the United Arab Emirates; then as a desk officer in the Office of Israel & Palestinian Affairs; and currently as an officer in the International Organization (IO) Affairs Bureau\u2019s Office of Human Rights. While serving in IO, Dr. Reisser has had a range of responsibilities including work on Israeli-Palestinian issues, human rights in Iran, Palestinian refugees, and creating a policy on promoting the human rights of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender individuals. He has also served on the board of directors for Gays and Lesbians in Foreign Affairs Agencies (GLIFAA).\nDr. Reisser holds a bachelor's degree, Summa Cum Laude and Phi Beta Kappa, in international affairs and history from George Washington University and a master's degree in geography from the same institution.

Dr. Reisser is a part-time professor of geography at George Washington University. He is a regular lecturer on Middle East geography at the State Department\u2019s Foreign Service Institute.\nBesides his professional work, Dr. Reisser performed and taught Ukrainian folk dance for 17 years and has recently founded a new Eastern European dance group in D.C. Dr. Reisser is the 2007 National Geography Bowl Champion.\nDid I mention my assignments officer is a rock star?\nNow I can get my tickets and make reservations for the pets.\nUnfortunately, I discovered that my bird cannot fly on the airline I wanted to use. The other is also very good with pets, but will only allow her in the pet compartment. Which scares me.\nBut the only option is not to take her.\nAnd that is not an option.\n2011 LGBT Pride Month: Andy Ball & Augie Paculdar\nJames \u201cAndy\u201d Ball is serving his fourth tour, and is the general services officer at the U.S. consulate general in Sydney, Australia. He is accompanied by his partner of 17 years, Agustin \u201cAugie\u201d Paculdar, who is the cultural liaison officer. Previous postings include Manila, Mexico City, and Washington, D.C.\nThey remember the challenges when SSDPs were member of households, and the uncertainties it brought. However, now that Augie is an eligible family member (EFM) that has opened up meaningful opportunities to contribute to the Department\u2019s mission. Augie was the first SSDP to begin receiving benefits and protections as an EFM, and they are both grateful to Secretary Clinton for improving their lives in immeasurable ways. Augie has passed the Foreign Service exams and is on the register so possibly very soon Andy and Augie will face a new set of challenges as a tandem couple.\nWhen they are not both working at the consulate, Andy and Augie are in the waters of Sydney Harbor as avid rowers on a dragonboat team. They have competed in the Pan Pacific International Games, the New South Wales State Championships, and the Australian National Championships. Prior to joining the Department, Andy was a US Air Force captain and worked on Capitol Hill. He received his BA from Vanderbilt and was born and raised in Tallahassee, FL. Augie also worked on Capitol Hill, and received his BA from Harvard and his MBA from the University of Southern California. He is a native of Los Angeles, CA. Their cat, Salcedo, is native to the streets of Manila.\n2011 LGBT Pride Month: Lara A Ballard\nLara A.

I would say that I am officially old but I think that happened a few years ago.\nThis birthday is no special milestone, but so far it has been a good one. I got some great gifts (my wife and Dad are rock stars!) and am getting dinner at the place of my choosing...I am thinking of mixing it up and getting something besides sushi. At the moment, I am thinking Indian, but my selection has changed several times today.\nAnd then I get to cap it off with my favorite: red velvet cake!\nYep, I am THAT Southern.\nBut birthdays are also bitter sweet for me.\nMy mom passed away 15 years ago this July. She always called me on my birthday...and always at the exact minute of my birth.\nWhich is why I know without looking at my birth certificate that I was born at 1:26 AM.\nYes, A.M.\nIt was the only middle of the night phone call that I got that didn't make me leap out of bed, heart pounding. Because I always knew it was coming. In fact, before I moved away from home, she always woke me up at that hour.\nShe wanted to tell me how happy she was I was born.\nWhat makes birthdays a bit sad for me now is that that call was the last time I spoke to my mother. Twelve days later, as she was planning a vacation, an aneurysm in her brain ruptured. Four hours later she was in a coma. Seventeen days later, she was gone.\nSo birthdays make me thankful for my mom's life and make me miss her terribly. I even miss that call.\nThanks for being my mom, Mom. Thanks for giving birth to me.\n2011 LGBT Pride Month: Jim Thompson\nJim Thompson serves as Deputy Special Representative for Global Partnerships in the Global Partnership Initiative within the Office of the Secretary of State.

I think it is in room F1210, but I have to check when I get to work in the morning to be certain. What I am certain of is that we will be meeting tomorrow from 12:10-12:50.\nLGBT but not in the current A-100? NO PROBLEM! Come have lunch with us anyway! The more experienced voices at the table the better?\nIn the current A-100 but not LGBT? In fact, just happen to be at FSI but not LGBT? NO PROBLEM! Joine us anyway! We LOVE allies!\nAnd I hear a rumor that rumor that the number of LGBT folks in this class blows away all previous class records (yes, a little piece of me, being from what had been called the gayest class ever, died when I typed that).\nSo this brown bag should be FABULOUS!\nSadly, it is also likely my last...someone else will have to carry the torch, as I take my final test in two weeks and finish training a week later.\n2011 LGBT Pride Month Bios: Lawrence D Pixa\nFor the third year, in honor of Pride month, the State Department has published biographies of some of the Department's LGBT employees.\nFirst up is Larry Pixa.\nLawrence (Larry) Pixa is an economic affairs cone FSO en route to his first post as consular officer in Montreal, Canada.

He joins the Foreign Service with his life partner of over 20 years and their wire hair fox terrier, Lyudmila, adopted while living in Ukraine.\nWhat I'll Be Missing\nI have benefited from another's misfortune. An infant's even.\nPlease don't think I am a bad person...I didn't mean to.\nMy classmate has missed the past two days of class because her baby has been sick. Nothing super serious, thank god, but even so, her staying home was completely understandable.\nIt also meant I got our teacher all to myself.\nAnd ouch.\nBeing alone in language class is exhausting. But it is also awesome.\nIn just two days, I already feel like I have improved. I have gotten to focus on what I need to work on completely selfishly.\nI have loved it!\nIt also annoys me though, because had I gotten to test on the day I originally scheduled, before the \"priority testers\" came in and snatched my time, I would have gotten nearly a week of one-on-one. And I can see how much I could benefit from that right here at the end. Because I can see how much I benefited from these two days.\nOnly two weeks and a day left before test day.\nAmb. Polt's Comments for Baltic Pride 2011\nComments for Baltic Pride 2011 Rottermann Square\nAmbassador Michael C. Polt\nGood afternoon. My wife and I are delighted to be here with representatives of the Estonian government and my British colleague to help open this finale of Baltic Pride 2011. My Embassy is pleased to be a sponsor of this event.\nPresident Barack Obama and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton have made LGBT Rights a part of the routine work of the U.S. Government. In addition to achievements such as ending the \"don't ask, don't tell policy\" in the U.S. military, they have also both been outspoken on importance of ending discrimination and violence against LGBT people in the U.S. and around the world.\nSeveral months ago, President Obama and Secretary Clinton each appeared in videos for the \"It Gets Better Campaign\" to provide reassurance to LGBT young people struggling with their sexual orientation and considering suicide. At the Diversity in Riches Conference a few days ago here in Tallinn, a participant asked that the U.S. translate these videos into local languages for vulnerable young people who don't speak English.\nI am pleased to say that U.S. Embassy Tallinn has translated Secretary Clinton's \"It Gets Better\" video into Estonian. You can now see the video with Estonian subtitles on the U.S. Embassy Facebook page; or on our website at Estonia.usembassy.gov. I encourage you to forward it to friends and colleagues and especially to anyone who might have contact with vulnerable youth.\nIn the coming week, we will also release Secretary Clinton's video with Russian subtitles and President Obama's video with both Estonian and Russian subtitles.\nI congratulate Estonian Gay Youth and the other organizers of this important event and I applaud the Estonian government and the people of Estonia for their efforts on behalf of tolerance, fairness and dignity for all.\nThank you and all the best for Baltic Pride.\nYou can see some photos from the event here.\nLabels: Estonia, Pride Month\nGLIFAA was well represented at Washington, DC's annual Gay Pride Parade.\nEveryone had a great time. If you weren't there with us, you missed a lot of fun!\nBut you haven't missed your chance. If you are at the Pride festival tomorrow, stop by our booth and say hello!\nToday I got another chink in my armor of \"anonymity\".\nI was coming out of class for one of our breaks when someone said, \"Are you going to Estonia?\"\n\"I think I know who you are.\"\n\"I'll just say my mom loves you and leave it at that.\"\nNow I'm wondering, who is her mom? An FSO? A friend from my life before the FS?\nI told her she couldn't just say that and walk away...I'd have spent weeks trying to figure that out, and no doubt a bit of my old INR paranoia would have crept in.\nTurns out she was fellow FS blogger Caitlin at Tabbies In Tow. I love meeting fellow bloggers, and I really like hers.\nI also told her to tell her mom I said thanks!\nLast night, I went to the special opening night performance for Embassies and the press of Purge at the Scena Theatre here in DC, which was sponsored by the Estonian and Finnish embassies.\nPurge is a play (and later a book) by Sofi Oksanen, a Finnish writer of Estonian descent. The play and book are set in Estonia in the 1950s and in 1992.\nThe play is powerful and moving. It really nails the complexity of the decisions people had to make, and live with, during those times just to survive. It is well written and well preformed. I wondered whether watching it was difficult for the Estonians in the audience, much as watching the more painful parts of our history, especially those dealing with American Indians, is hard for me.\nI'll warn you, there is a bit of male nudity (I was shocked, I tell you! Shocked!).\nThe play runs through July 3. If you get a chance, you should go see it.\nArea studies today was one of the best we have had.\nBut of course, we both (that would be me and you) knew it would be because...my wife was on the panel!\nSeriously, it was a good class. We had the Poland, Estonia, and Lithuania Desk officers there along with the region's INR analyst. The Latvian Desk officer apparently had work to do!\nWe got to talk about our countries. And ask specific questions. And get answers about our countries and not Russia. By people who knew the answers.\nAnd here is a very telling quote from the class:\nOne panelist asked, \"Have you talked much about the political situation in Latvia in the past few weeks?\" (You know, where the president dissolved Parliament days before his own election, which he lost. He dissolved them because of the corruption of the Oligarchs in Parliament...an oligarch is now the president...).\nAnd someone (not me) in the class answered, \"No, not at all. But we can tell you all about this church in Kiev.\"\nKeeping U.S. officials safe overseas\nSadly, CBS has disabled the embed function, so I can't embed this video, but you should go check it out. It is piece CBS did about Diplomatic Security, and it is nice to see some of our folks getting credit for the great work they do. You can check it out here.\nKeeping U.S. officials safe overseas - CBS News Video\nCBS News video: Keeping U.S. officials safe overseas - With U.S. Sec. of State Hillary Clinton set to travel to the Middle East and Africa, Jeff Glor reports on how the Diplomatic Security Service keeps U.S. officials safe overseas.\nLabels: Diplomatic Security\nI am the Number Two - the Deputy Chief of Mission - at the U.S. Embassy. I am also Gay.\nBelow is the transcript of the speech Bob Gilchrist, Tallinn's DCM, gave for the opening of Baltic Pride.\nSee why I am happy to be going there? Could you imagine this happening even just a few short years ago?\nRemarks by U.S. Deputy Chief of Mission at Opening of Baltic Pride Festival\nIt's an honor to be here this evening. I extend my best from Ambassador Polt, whom I am representing here this evening. Many of you may have seen his supportive remarks in our Embassy's press release, in which he congratulated the LGBT community on the event of Baltic Pride and emphasized that \"diversity and equality are fundamental values for us all.\"\nMy name is Robert Gilchrist and I am the Number Two - the Deputy Chief of Mission - at the U.S. Embassy.\nI am also Gay.\nSo being here this evening is not just important to me as a U.S. Diplomat in reaffirming my government's respect for the integrity of every human being.\nIt is also important to me as someone who has been active in the gay movement back in my own country,\nAnd as a fellow Gay person who is out and proud.\nI had the honor of being the president for several years of an organization based in Washington called Gays and Lesbians in Foreign Affairs Agencies (GLIFAA). It is an organization that has grown to roughly 1000 Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender (LGBT) and supportive U.S. diplomats and other government officials working in foreign affairs.\nThe organization's focus has been on extending same-sex partnership benefits to U.S. government foreign affairs personnel. Its focus has also been on urging that the basic rights of LGBT people be reflected in the actions and words of U.S. Embassies around the world and at the State Department and other offices in Washington.\nYears ago it was hard for my group, GLIFAA, just to get meetings. And progress came slowly at that time\nHowever, by being out... and proud... and persistent... and through the strength of our arguments\nWe were able to affect change.\nTwo years, through our work, President Obama and Secretary of State Clinton extended to diplomatic personnel the first central government benefits to same-sex partners in U.S. history.\nOver time, U.S. policy more broadly has also evolved. I had the honor last year of chairing LGBT Pride event at the State Department in Washington. Secretary of State Clinton spoke at that event and articulated a clear vision of very active support for LGBT rights in U.S. foreign policy. As such, the U.S. has been a strong advocate for LGBT-related initiatives in the UN and other international organizations. Our embassies in places as diverse as Uganda, Malawi, Russia, Albania, and many other places have been outspoken against anti-LGBT laws and state-supported actions.\nIn that Pride speech last year, Secretary Clinton said \"Human Rights are Gay Rights, and Gay Rights are Human Rights.\" And under her and President Obama's leadership, U.S. diplomats have transformed those words into deeds.\nI encourage you all to come to an event on Wednesday evening at the Teacher's House in the Old Town, where a senior official from the U.S. State Department - Deputy Assistant Secretary for Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor Thomas Melia - will speak on LGBT policy from a U.S. perspective.\nI also encourage you all to keep an eye out for later this month, when we expect Secretary Clinton to again make a ground moving speech on LGBT rights - and I believe it will be broadcast live via the State Department website and then also put on YouTube. It says a lot when one of the most powerful women in the world speaks so positively on LGBT issues.\nAnd I also encourage you all to enjoy and benefit from the events this week.\nI'd like to thank Estonian Gay Youth and the other groups that have organized this week of events, which my Embassy is glad to help support.\nI express appreciation to the other Embassies represented this evening, including the British and Dutch Ambassadors.\nAnd, on behalf of Ambassador Polt and my government, I particularly recognize the role the Estonian Ministry of Social Affairs and other parts of the Estonian government are playing in supporting this week's events. Tallinn is a welcoming environment for Baltic Pride, and the Estonian government's support has been fundamental in that.\nThank you very much. Have a great evening and week. Gay rights are human rights and human rights are gay rights! And Happy Pride.\nLabels: Estonia, GLIFAA, Pride Month\nThis week has started off great and continues to hold good promise.\nLast night, my wife and I had dinner with a bunch of friends from our time in Azerbaijan. I continue to believe that one of the things that keeps me in the service even when times are hard is the wonderful people you become friends with. And I love getting together with them back in the states, especially when it involves smashing crabbies (yay Quarterdeck!). And tonight, we are having sushi with another FS friend, this one from Jerusalem.\nAlso this week, I have managed to schedule my packouts (though I have already decided to reschedule the UAB one now that I have additional info). I scheduled it yesterday and heard from the moving company today. I expect to go this week and schedule my flight.\nTomorrow, we are having an Estonian happy hour and will get to see our other Estonian teacher for the first time in a while. I really like her and have missed having her in class, but alas, budget being what it is, FSI didn't have money for her right now. Hopefully they will bring her back in the fall...she is very good. We have been extremely fortunate to have two exceptional teachers (and since we only had two, we also are fortunate to have no bad teachers...not the case for some other languages!).\nThursday, I know area studies will be good because my wife is coming! And I know she knows a lot! Plus I just like getting to spend an afternoon with her...I married her because I like spending time with her! Then Thursday night, we are going to a performance of \"Purge\" that is sponsored by the Estonian Embassy.\nAnd now for the cautiously optimistic part...I got an email, the contents I won't divulge right now, but suffice it to say that it has given me a bit of hope on an subject that has been troubling me. I'll tell you more later. I promise.\nU.S. Embassy Tallinn Press Release on Baltic Pride\nU.S. Embassy Tallinn\nOn the occasion of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender (LGBT) Pride Month 2011, Ambassador Polt and his Embassy team join the Estonian government in congratulating Estonia\u2019s LGBT community on the celebration of Baltic Pride June 6-11 in Tallinn, coordinated primarily by the NGO Estonian Gay Youth. The Embassy is providing financial support in addition to speakers, including Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor Thomas Melia, who will be in Tallinn on June 8.\nPresident Obama on May 31 issued a Presidential Proclamation for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender Pride Month, which happens each year in June. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton said in June 2010 that \u201cgay rights are human rights, and human rights are gay rights\u201d at an event commemorating LGBT Pride at the U.S. Department of State. President Obama and Secretary Clinton have set a vision that firmly incorporates LGBT rights in U.S. foreign policy, and the U.S. Government has included respect for the rights of LGBT persons as a core component in the Congressionally-mandated annual Country Reports on Human Rights.\nAmbassador Polt states \u201cwe are pleased and honored to contribute to Baltic Pride, which will highlight LGBT organizations, individuals, and families in Estonia and from the region. Diversity and equality are fundamental values for us all.\u201d\nA Good Day To End a Good Week\nIf you read Four Globetrotters (and if you don't, why aren't you? She's really funny!), you know that in today's post, she talks about the language test we take when we finish our language training. Hers is in seven days. Mine is in 27.\nThe test is in two parts: reading and speaking. The speaking part has three parts: a warm up chat; a formal presentation (where you get to pick a topic from several choices, get five minutes to prepare, and then give your presentation); and the interview (again you pick from several topics, interview your tester about the topic, and then report what you understood in English to the examiner).\nThe presentation is Four Globetrotters' least favorite part, but it is my favorite part. It is the part where I feel in at least a little control. I like public speaking, even though it still makes me nervous, and in this part, I know what I am trying to say and can usually find a way to say it even with my limited vocabularly. And with all my years in academia, thinking about topics in an intro, three points, conclusion fashion comes pretty naturally.\nMy least favorite is the interview. The tester is always going to say things more quickly and more complexly than your ability to understand, in part because she wants to determine your ability to slow a person down, get them to explain in other words, etc. Plus, she wants to push you to your highest ability. It always leaves me drained...and that isn't even discussing how easy it is to get involved in the conversation and to forget to report until you realize you don't remember half of what was said. Not because you didn't understand at the time, but because the conversation has gone so far afield. The solution to that is to take notes, but my skills are not good enough to take notes quickly in Estonian and if I take notes in English, I am switching between languages in my head. Which slows me down. And makes me miss more than if I just let myself think in Estonian. (To the degree that I can!).\nBut I digress. What I wanted to say is that we practiced our presentation today too. Ultimately, my presentation probably wasn't much more in depth than how she describes hers. But I felt pretty good about it. I think it flowed pretty well, I was able to use some decent vocabulary and I think I did fairly well with the endings. Even my linguistically gifted classmate nodded approvingly at one expression I used.\nIt was a nice ending to a good week. A week that included movement on my orders, the discovery that my assignments officer is awesome, and the movement on the permit I need to take my bird with me to post. A week that included word from the Embassy about the press release they will issue this weekend for LGBT Pride (and I will just tell you that I could not be more pleased to be going to work for this Ambassador and DCM...but you don't get to see the release until they publish it.). A week that included a trip to the Estonian embassy and a chat with their political officer. He will be heading home soon. His replacement is the guy I told you we met at Main State some weeks back. My counterpart was there as well. I have met her before and she seems very nice and knowledgible. She also had some good things to say about the area I will be living in when I get to Tallinn...bonus!\nAt the end of the meeting, we were invited to a production of \"Purge\" that is sponsored by the Estonian and Finnish Embassies. I am looking forward to attending next week. She also invited us to a concert of Estonian children's music. I would like to attend that as well.\nIt was also a week where I felt like I was coming off my plateau. I consider it a good week if the number of times I feel like an idiot is lower than the number of times I feel like I am doing okay...I did have a blood sugar crash while doing a reading this week...I am sure my teacher thought my brains had drained out of my ear because I hit that level of stupid. But I can counter that with the amount that I understand now when I watch the Estonian news each night. I am feeling better about things.\nAnd to cap off the week, we have the unofficial results of the AFSA elections. I'm pleased. The slate I voted for won, and as I said before, I feel strongly that the president needs to be active duty because the needs and demands of the service have changed. So we will keep our active duty president, Susan Johnson. I think she is good for AFSA and will make sure AFSA remains good for the service.\nYep, a good week. I hope yours was too. And here's to a good weekend. For all of us.\nLabels: AFSA, language, Pride Month\nGLIFAA Pride Calendar\nGays and Lesbians In Foreign Affairs Agencies PRIDE calendar!\nGLIFAA LGBT Pride Month Event with OPM Director John Berry and Counselor and Chief of Staff Cheryl Mills\nLocation: Loy Henderson Auditorium, Harry S Truman Building (Main State)\nMetro: Foggy Bottom (Blue/Orange Lines)\nRSVP: glifaa@glifaa.org\nGLIFAA Pride Month Happy Hour\nLocation: Nellie's, 900 U St NW, Washington DC Metro: U Street/African American Civil War Memorial/Cardozo (Green/Yellow Lines, 10th St. Exit)\nFSI Course: LGBT Community in Foreign Affairs Agencies\nLocation: Foreign Service Institute\nRSVP: Register through FSI, or email FSITCTraining@state.gov\nGLIFAA Pride Parade Reception\nCome socialize, enjoy some appetizers and beverages, then join GLIFAA by marching in the Parade to represent GLIFAA publicly with our banners and new t-shirts.\nLocation: 2138 Newport Place NW, Washington DC\nMetro: Dupont Circle (Red Line)\nRSVP: glifaa@glifaa.org or on facebook\nGLIFAA Marches in the Capital Pride Parade\nAll are welcome (LGBT and not!) to march with GLIFAA members and their families to support equality.\nDress: GLIFAA or post T-shirts\nLocation: Starts at 23rd and P Streets NW, Washington DC Metro: Dupont Circle (Red Line)\nGLIFAA Pride Booth at the Capital Pride Street Festival\nLocation: Pennsylvania Avenue between 3rd and 7th Streets NW, Washington DC\nMetro: Archives/Navy Memorial/Penn Quarter Metro station (Green/Yellow Lines) or Judiciary Square (Red Line)\nSecretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton Delivers GLIFAA's Pride Month Address and Receives the 2011 GLIFAA Equality Award\nLocation: Harry S Truman Building (Main State)\nGLIFAA Human Rights Campaign Reception with Special Guest\nLocation: Human Rights Campaign, 1640 Rhode Island Ave NW, Washington DC\nMetro: Farragut West (Blue/Orange Lines) or Farragut North (Red Line)\nMy Itinerary update\nMy assignment officer is a rock star. Seriously. She's awesome.\nI sent her an email that basically said \"Help! My Itinerary is evil!\" and she walked me though a solution.\nTurns out the program doesn't grasp that not everyone is transferring from overseas. Turns out is doesn't actually need to know where I will be on my annual leave, or how I will travel from my leave in Arlington to my consultations at Main State. Turns out, it just needs to know the things that affect the cost of me going to Estonia.\nSo she told me delete all that and just put in when I am flying to Estonia...and it worked! I was able to submit.\nThen she told me what to look for to tell if it had gone into the great abyss (it had), and to tell her so she could get her magicians to retrieve it for her.\nSo theoretically, things are progressing.\nLike I said, she is awesome!\nOops, I meant area studies.\nOkay, today was actually not THAT bad. Our speaker, from the National Committee on Soviet Jewry, talked a bit about what his organization was doing (and how they really wish they had a different name, since there is no longer a Soviet Union, but that with their group's name recognition, they were advised not to change it...branding and all).\nHe did talk a good bit about Ukraine, and again I am thankful that at least it is on a country some of us are going to.\nAnd he did at least mention the other countries.\nStill, I find myself annoyed that we have three weeks left of area studies and I feel I have learned so much about Ukraine, a bit about Poland and substantially less about the Balts. Or NATO. Or the EU (we did get that one lecture on the history of the EU...I think we made it to about 1936...not much on what is currently going on).\nMeanwhile, interesting things are going on in the Balts. Estonia had elections, interesting elections that demonstrated how stable the government is despite their austerity measures. They have also transitioned to the Euro, and yet with all the change and all the world economic crises, their economy has suffered less than others. I know about this stuff because I read the news, not because area studies has taught me anything. And then there is Latvia. Their President DISSOLVED parliament this week and then lost his election. Good stuff...not a peep about it in area studies.\nNext week, we will have break out sessions. These are good in theory, but more often than not, for us, they mean the Balts and Poland together in a session while Ukraine's folks go someplace interesting. For our break out, we will have the same speaker we have had for at least three other lectures (all but one were breakouts I think). He is great, and really knowledgeable, but seriously. Is he the only person who can talk about the Balts?\nOne good thing though...my wife will be coming with him this time. So at least I get an afternoon with her out of it!\nToday marks the beginning of LGBT Pride Month, and I wanted to share with you the President's proclamation.\nEven though I know there is so much further we need to go, I still appreciate having a President who is willing to actually address the LGBT community and to honor a month honoring the contributions we make to the country.\nThe story of America's Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender (LGBT) community is the story of our fathers and sons, our mothers and daughters, and our friends and neighbors who continue the task of making our country a more perfect Union. It is a story about the struggle to realize the great American promise that all people can live with dignity and fairness under the law. Each June, we commemorate the courageous individuals who have fought to achieve this promise for LGBT Americans, and we rededicate ourselves to the pursuit of equal rights for all, regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity.\nSince taking office, my Administration has made significant progress towards achieving equality for LGBT Americans. Last December, I was proud to sign the repeal of the discriminatory \"Don't Ask, Don't Tell\" policy. With this repeal, gay and lesbian Americans will be able to serve openly in our Armed Forces for the first time in our Nation's history. Our national security will be strengthened and the heroic contributions these Americans make to our military, and have made throughout our history, will be fully recognized.\nMy Administration has also taken steps to eliminate discrimination against LGBT Americans in Federal housing programs and to give LGBT Americans the right to visit their loved ones in the hospital. We have made clear through executive branch nondiscrimination policies that discrimination on the basis of gender identity in the Federal workplace will not be tolerated. I have continued to nominate and appoint highly qualified, openly LGBT individuals to executive branch and judicial positions. Because we recognize that LGBT rights are human rights, my Administration stands with advocates of equality around the world in leading the fight against pernicious laws targeting LGBT persons and malicious attempts to exclude LGBT organizations from full participation in the international system. We led a global campaign to ensure \"sexual orientation\" was included in the United Nations resolution on extrajudicial execution -- the only United Nations resolution that specifically mentions LGBT people -- to send the unequivocal message that no matter where it occurs, state-sanctioned killing of gays and lesbians is indefensible. No one should be harmed because of who they are or who they love, and my Administration has mobilized unprecedented public commitments from countries around the world to join in the fight against hate and homophobia.\nAt home, we are working to address and eliminate violence against LGBT individuals through our enforcement and implementation of the Matthew Shepard and James Byrd, Jr. Hate Crimes Prevention Act. We are also working to reduce the threat of bullying against young people, including LGBT youth. My Administration is actively engaged with educators and community leaders across America to reduce violence and discrimination in schools. To help dispel the myth that bullying is a harmless or inevitable part of growing up, the First Lady and I hosted the first White House Conference on Bullying Prevention in March. Many senior Administration officials have also joined me in reaching out to LGBT youth who have been bullied by recording \"It Gets Better\" video messages to assure them they are not alone.\nThis month also marks the 30th anniversary of the emergence of the HIV/AIDS epidemic, which has had a profound impact on the LGBT community. Though we have made strides in combating this devastating disease, more work remains to be done, and I am committed to expanding access to HIV/AIDS prevention and care. Last year, I announced the first comprehensive National HIV/AIDS Strategy for the United States. This strategy focuses on combinations of evidence-based approaches to decrease new HIV infections in high risk communities, improve care for people living with HIV/AIDS, and reduce health disparities. My Administration also increased domestic HIV/AIDS funding to support the Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program and HIV prevention, and to invest in HIV/AIDS-related research. However, government cannot take on this disease alone. This landmark anniversary is an opportunity for the LGBT community and allies to recommit to raising awareness about HIV/AIDS and continuing the fight against this deadly pandemic.\nEvery generation of Americans has brought our Nation closer to fulfilling its promise of equality. While progress has taken time, our achievements in advancing the rights of LGBT Americans remind us that history is on our side, and that the American people will never stop striving toward liberty and justice for all.\nIN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this thirty-first day of May, in the year of our Lord two thousand eleven, and of the Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and thirty-fifth.\nLGBT Community in Foreign Affairs Agencies\nNext Wednesday, FSI will be offering a workshop on the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Community in Foreign Affairs Agencies. The workshop lasts from 5:30 to 8:30 pm and is open to employees, EFMs, MOHs and probably several other acronyms.\nIf you are interested in attending, contact FSITCTraining@state.gov.\nLabels: FS life, FSI\nTranscripts of Secretary Clinton's Remarks for Pri...\nMONDAY: Secretary Clinton discusses LGBT Issues in...\nFRIDAY: Pride Reception with Ambassador Susan Rice...\nI am the Number Two - the Deputy Chief of Mission ...\nU.S. Embassy Tallinn Press Release on Baltic Pride...",

        "raw_content": "Diana and Destiny\nPrincess Diana, Death and Destiny\nA series of dramatic meaningful coincidences on the night of the 16/17th August, 1997 suggested that Diana, was about to be killed. It would look like an accident but accident it would not be....... The Web of Destiny suggested 1st September....and a starring role for the British security services. Edward VIII 's stark warning to al Fayed was to be proved both true and timely by the Alma Tunnel crash and subsequent developments.\nMI5/MI6 were merely the agents. But who signed the warrant of execution? And who gained most from Diana's death? The answer to the latter question is, of course, the House of Windsor. The grey, wooden Windsors were no longer outshone by the colourful princess. But the answer to the former question is to be found in a large number of significant coincidences over several years since Diana 's death. The full account of this very precise prophecy will be found in our book Diana Beyond the Veil.\nBut this was not the first association of Diana with death, with Egypt or with assassination, in the Alpha and Omega Codes. But, it was in fact to be the final one.\nBut this final episode in Diana's life really began for us a few days earlier. It was on 11th August that I became aware of the spirit of the dead King Edward VIII, latterly the Duke of Windsor, quite insistently asking me to write to Mohamed Al Fayed. The former king wanted me to inform Fayed of his wishes. Furthermore he wanted me to warn Fayed of the consequences of his actions if he did not cancel the sale of the Duke's belongings. Fayed was putting up for auction the whole contents of the Paris mansion situated in the Bois de Boulogne which had been the former king's home for 20 years, until his death in 1972. When he announced the auction to the press in July 1997 Fayed had said that he intended to clear the house \u2018to make room for his growing family\u2019??. What he did not say was the idea for the sale had probably come from Princess Diana herself, following the success of the 'Diana's dresses' auction held in June 1997. The former king was giving Fayed a stark warning. Various coincidences in my own life around that time confirmed the authenticity of the warning, So on 15th August, I posted a letter conveying the Duke of Windsor's warning to Fayed . The warning concerned Fayed and his son and was very specific.\nDeath and Egypt\nBut the first indications in my research of Diana's early death came in 1992, when there was a strange coincidence of timing in my visit to Egypt and Diana's.\nIt had been very much a spur-of-the-moment decision which I made in May 1992 . I felt I had to return to Egypt. For the first time, I went alone. On the four previous visits I had gone with Jenny, but this time she could not easily get time off work and in any case we could not afford the fare for both of us to go. But the 'signs' were very strong that I must go to Egypt. I was still \u2018between contracts\u2019. My Plymouth job had finished in September 1991, but within a few weeks of my returning from Egypt the RAF Chicksands job was to come up. It was as though all my experiences were part of a planned programme of work experience!! The question is 'Who was organising it?'\nSome days after my arrival in Egypt, I was cycling along by the Nile in Luxor when I noticed a large banner draped across above the road. It proclaimed \u2018Welcome Princess Diana\u2019. This was something of a surprise. I had seen nothing in the press before I left England about any impending royal visit to Egypt. I was to discover later that she, too, had made a last minute decision to go to Egypt and she, too, had gone alone. Her husband, Prince Charles, had gone to Turkey.\nI made attempts to find out where she was staying, but without success. I wanted to take a photograph of Diana in Egypt.. I felt her visit had a deep significance. I had a strong sense of impending doom. Ominous words came into my mind as I cycled along the Corniche beside the Nile. It was beside this same river more than 33 centuries ago, that another Queen had lived and died. Her name was Ankhsoun pa Aten, wife of Tutankhamun and Daughter of Akhenaten. She too had met a violent early death. Was it the spirit of Ankhsoun who linked to my mind on that hot early summer afternoon in Luxor? I do not know for certain. But these words came into my mind.\n\u2018She comes to a place of death for Kings and Queens\u2019.\nI had come to Egypt to do research for my book, Ankhsoun, Daughter of Ra, a book which had come to us through Jenny in a trance state in June 1986.\nI tried over several days to get a photograph of Diana. I went to various likely tombs in the Valley of the Kings, but always drew a blank. Instead over those two weeks in Egypt, many strange coincidences occurred. I was shown where Ankhsoun was imprisoned and where she was murdered. Was it just coincidence that Jenny and I had had to go to Paris on 10th June 1986 so that Ankhsoun could tell us of her cruel death? Did something know even in 1986 that the murder of a Great Royal Wife, linking to both Egypt and Paris was pointing not only to the past, but also to the future?\nMany elements in the Web of Destiny link Diana\u2019s death in Paris back to Egypt and these will be described in our book entitled \u2018Diana - Beyond the Veil\u2019. It must suffice here to discuss only the links with the Prophecy Codes because the code number 558 in 1990 had the linked meanings of \u2018death\u2019 and \u2018Egypt\u2019. Her British passport had the number 125580D and she came to Egypt on a visit which was to have uncanny cross-connections to her last journey in the early hours of 31st August 1997.\nAs for her death being an accident, somehow it was rather too convenient, and that is not what the evidence from the Enigma Codes suggests to me from things that happened to me in September 1991, in August 1997 and now today as well. And the very meaningful coincidences during the Diana Inquest between February and April, 2008, positively screamed that she was murdered. See our book PenRose\nI found out about Diana\u2019s passport on 16th September 1991. I was on my way back to Plymouth after a weekend visit to my young daughter in Newcastle-upon-Tyne. I made a detour via Tetbury, in order to have a look at the nearest village to Prince Charles\u2019 and Princess Diana\u2019s home in Gloucestershire. It had been reported that they did the odd bit of local shopping there. However I was disappointed to find the village singularly un-noteworthy. I had hoped for perhaps a second-hand bookshop but the nearest thing I found was a shop manufacturing video cases that were designed to look like books, presumably for those who wanted to pretend to be well-read! I glanced around a few charity shops for second-hand books but found little of interest and so resumed my journey , my next port of call being Bath.\nThere were quite a lot of second-hand bookshops in Bath but most were expensive. However, in one shop I discovered a matching pair of books on Charles and Diana. The first was \u2018In Person, the Prince and Princess of Wales\u2019 and the second was \u2018In Private, In Public, the Prince and Princess of Wales\u2019, both books being by Alistair Burnett. Whereas the former book has end papers which are a printed version of Victorian marbling, the second book has for its endpapers passport covers and the first inside page for both Princess Diana and for Prince Charles. The numbers shown are 125580D and B131415 respectively.\nI bought this pair of books and a number of others at various bookshops, then looked around for a petrol station before continuing my journey onto Plymouth. It was while filling up with petrol that my eye was drawn to enormous writing on the wall of an old building opposite the garage - \u2018Furniture Depository\u2019. It was now a large furniture store. \"How odd,\" I thought. \"That links back to President Kennedy \". It was from the 6th floor of the Texas Book Depository in Dallas that at least some of the shots were fired on 22nd November 1963. Whether these were the fatal ones is still uncertain as is the extent of the cover-up sanctioned by the Warren Commission. There is an interesting series of coincidences linking John Kennedy's assassination with that of Abraham Lincoln. One is again left to ponder whether there is indeed a destiny. The subtle cross - connections are certainly thought provoking. The question is: are they intended to be? Are the many correlations between the two assassinated presidents just the result of random chance. Or is it all an intriguing example of intelligent design, intended to make us wonder?\nFor some reason, on that particular day in Bath, I associated the idea of assassination with Prince Charles, perhaps because it was John Kennedy who was killed when he was beside Jackie in the car that day. I did not have a lot of time to think about it as I was already late back for my waste water treatment work in Plymouth. I should have been in work by Monday lunchtime. It was another contributory factor in that particular job ending less than a fortnight later. I rarely had enough time to put all the data together for my Enigma research. Now the problem is even worse!. I should have realised that afternoon that in the passport numbers was the clue as to which of the Wales's would be assassinated. But after Diana\u2019s death, I came across the passport reference and a mental image of the \u2018depository\u2019 and of the garage in Bath, immediately came into my mind.\nI realised that my association of \u2018assassination\u2019 with the Wales household after my visit to Tetbury earlier that day had been correct. I just had not put the two obvious clues together. Diana\u2019s passport had 125580D as its number and 558 signified death and Egypt. So that afternoon/evening, in Bath, had given \u2018assassination/ death/ Egypt with Diana. Was she not killed five years later in very convenient circumstances, in the company of an Egyptian, the son of a man who likes to behave as a modern-day pharaoh? In fact some of the media refer to him as the 'Phoney Pharaoh'.\nHowever, I had forgotten completely about this incident in Bath almost six years earlier when, just after midnight on 16th/17th August 1997, I realised from a sudden striking series of coincidences that I was being shown that Diana was about to be murdered. The pointers gave both \u2018intentional destruction\u2019 and the British Secret Service. Then, after I had understood the coincidence links and having realised that the enigma codes were showing me that Princess Diana was going to be murdered. As I wrote my conclusions in my note book, the following words came into my mind:\n\"A decision has been taken - the only question is when. She is too dangerous for them to leave alive - a tragic accident - no-one could ever be sure.\"\nAs ever the words from the voice were entirely unequivocal. there is none of the sort waffle which you get from so many spiritualist mediums.\nBut who were they........? Is there indeed a destiny?\nDoes Something know the future with absolute precision? And this that Something not intricately connected to the Voice which I here?\nBut, although they did not let her live, Diana is not dead. Her physical body is no more, but like Ankhsoun pa Aten, the Queen from long ago, her soul, her spirit if you prefer, survives beyond our material world of space and time. See The Diana Beyond the Veil. It is strange that some of our strongest evidence for life after death comes from Ancient Egypt. The Egyptians were more certain than any other civilisation on this planet, before or since, that there is life after death. Perhaps many of them understood more about what really matters than do the materially obsessed people of today.\nI cannot explain the mechanism by which the spirit survives the death of the body, the final switching off the brain. One of the best representations of the near death experience comes from ancient Egypt. It shows a human-headed bird leaving the body at the moment of death. It has the head to symbolise the uniqueness of the individual. We recognise someone from a face. We can do little with a foot, a leg, a hand, an arm or a body, but a face is instantly recognisable. People who have experienced, near death experiences, describe floating out from their bodies and hovering over the scene of their medical treatment. What else can hang almost motionless in the air but a bird? So the Egyptian image is really quite inspired. A recent BBC TV programme 'The Day I Died' failed to come up with any representation at all. There were bright light sequences and shots from above the patient showing the spirit's eye view, but no attempt to represent the spirit itself. How do you represent a non-corporeal entity. Perhaps the Egyptian attempt, stylised as it is, is the best we can manage.\nWe will all die. What happens then? There are methods we can use. I have developed some of them. There is guidance available in your own life if you choose to look for it.\n!5th March 2003\nRevised 12th April, 2003.\nMeaningful Coincidence as Verification\nMeaningful coincidence appears to cross-correlate with either inspiration or psychic messages as a kind of external verification. Several concurrent authenticating coincidences occurred as I wrote this page.\nCoincidence No 1. At this point, I realised that it was 6.40 pm on 15/3/03 as I found myself writing this paragraph. 15th March is of course the Ides of March, the day when Julius Caesar was assassinated. It is said that he had been warned to 'beware the Ides of March'. It is just coincidence as far as I am concerned that I am doing this today. But is the coincidence meaningful? Earlier this week I decided to expand a couple of 'Enigma' themes before putting up this web site. It just happens that 14th March when I wrote about prophecy had strong associations with Nostradamus, the best known prophet outside the Bible. 15th March just happens to be associated with betrayal and assassination. Was I meant to get the ideas to write these sections on such appropriate dates because some external source, some Orchestrator chose to put the ideas into my head at precisely the appropriate time or is it indeed just chance?\nCoincidence No 2. I had spent much of 15th March 2003 doing file backups and minor site improvements converting earlier pages to the latest style. I discovered that the three pages under prophecy had not been updated to the new tabular format. I reformatted 'Destiny and N739PA' and then did the same to 'The Death of Princess Diana'. As I came to save the updated final version of this latter page, my eye was drawn to the time. It was 5.58pm on 15th March. Is that not a little curious bearing in mind that this is one of only two pages on the entire site to refer to the code 558? What is more it is the only page to give a specific example referring to 558.\nView 558 Screen\nOf course any skeptic can tell you that the file had to be saved sometime and as there are only 1440 minutes in the day and allowing for a.m. and p.m. there is a 1 in 720 probability of its being pure chance.\nOf course it could also be a small further confirmation of my theories of inspiration and destiny.\nRevised 7th January 2004, 1228pm.",

        "raw_content": "10 Governments Currently In Exile\nMortimerB October 10, 2008\nFor a variety of reasons (often war), various political parties or governments have been forced into exile. These groups usually wield no power, but are seen as a protest against the regime that exiled them. This is a list of ten of those exiled governments.\nBelarusian National Republic\nThe BNR was created as a pro-German buffer state against revolutionary Russia in 1918. The BNR was never a real state, as it had no constitution, no military and no defined territory. When German troops withdrew from Belarus, the region was quickly overrun by the Red Army, and the BNR provisional council went into exile to facilitate an anti-communist movement there. Its government still exists, though it is unrecognized and in exile in Toronto.\nRepublic of Cabinda\nCabinda is a region located in west central Africa between Angola and the Democratic Republic of Congo. Cabinda\u2019s claims to independence from Angola trace back to its days as a Portuguese protectorate. When Angola achieved independence in the 1960s, the exiled Cabinda government declared independence as well, though it went unrecognized. Its government is currently based in Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of Congo.\nThe Crown Council of Ethiopia\nThis governing body once acted as a board of advisors for the reigning emperors of Ethiopia. When the monarchy was driven out in 1975, members of the Crown Council (including descendants of Haile Selassie) claimed that the emperorship still existed, and was thus the only legitimate head of state. Its current leader is Prince Ermias Sahle Selassie and it is based in Washington, DC.\nProgress Party of Equatorial Guinea\nThe PPGE (as it\u2019s abbreviated in Spanish) was founded as a pro-market, pro-democratic party in Equatorial Guinea in west Africa, after a lengthy period of repressive military authoritarianism. The volatile political situation in Equatorial Guinea led to party members\u2019 harassment and imprisonment. In response, the party declared a \u201cgovernment-in-exile\u201d in Madrid, where it is still located.\nMonarchy of Lao\nThe monarchy of Lao traces its origins to the consolidated Kingdom of Laos, formed in 1946. In 1975, the monarchy was dissolved by the communist regime and was sent into exile. It remains opposed to the Lao People\u2019s Democratic Republic, and its stated goal is \u201cto institute in Laos a true democracy, one which will ensure freedom, justice, peace and prosperity for all Lao people.\u201d Its headquarters is located in the U.S.\nNCBUG\nThe NCGUB (National Coalition Government of the Union of Burma) was formed in 1995 at a convention in Bommersvik, Sweden. Among its founding goals were the support of the political initiatives of imprisoned Nobel laureate Daw Aung San Suu Kyi and the establishment of a democratic multi-party union through talks with the ruling military junta led by General Than Shwe. Members were elected to parliament but not allowed by the junta to take office. It is currently based in Rockville, Maryland, U.S.\nThis government was formed during the Yugoslav civil war of the 1990s but was reinstated in 2005. Serbian Krajina was formerly a self-proclaimed Serbian state within Croatia, though it was later overrun by Croatian forces. More recently, former legislators of the RSK again pushed for greater autonomy (though not independence) from the Croatian government. The RSK exiled government is headquartered in Belgrade.\nChechnya is a breakaway province in the Northern Caucasus and is the site of two devastating wars between Chechen separatists and the Russian Federation. When the Russians overran Grozny in 2000, the Chechen government was exiled to various Arab countries, the U.K., the U.S. and Poland. In 2007, Ichkerian President Dokka Umarov declared himself the \u201cemir\u201d of a greater Caucasus Emirate, though this has been rejected by pro-republican forces and members of the former Chechen government.\nMonarchy of Iran\nThe modern Iranian monarchy was established in 1501 and was presided over by the Shahanshah, the equivalent of an emperor. Through much of its history, Iran was ruled by an absolute monarchy. It\u2019s last ruling shah, Mohammed Reza Pahlavi, was deposed by the Islamic Revolution of 1979 and sent into exile. Upon his death, the crown passed to his eldest son Reza Pahlavi. He has used his position to try to influence the Iranian electorate to perform acts of civil disobedience and non-participation, though he opposes foreign military action to oust the Islamic regime. He currently lives in Potomac, Maryland, U.S.\nTibet is a region under the administration of the People\u2019s Republic of China, a situation which is considered by the Central Tibetan Administration to be an unlawful occupation. The exiled Tibetan government is headed by Tenzin Gyatso, the 14th Dalai Lama. The CTA claims jurisdiction over those regions referred to as \u201cHistoric Tibet.\u201d Among its current functions are the the building of schools, health services, economic development and cultural activities for the international Tibetan community. Its current policy advocates autonomy rather than total independence. The CTA is based in Dharamsala, India, where the Dalai Lama first settled following the Chinese military occupation of Tibet in 1959. Pictured above is the Prime Minister of the Central Tibetan Administration.\nContributor: MortimerB\n9 Laughable Conspiracy Theories\n10 Insanely Violent Rebel Groups Active Right Now\n10 Ways the Internet Changed the 2008 Election\n10 Mishaps That Nearly Ended A President\u2019s Life",

The End of Ice is the firsthand chronicle of his travels, during which he scaled Denali, the highest peak in North America, swam in warm crystal waters around Pacific coral reefs, explored the tundra of St. Paul Island and spoke with some of the last subsistence seal-hunters of the Bering Sea. Accompanied by climate scientists and people whose families for centuries have fished and farmed in the various places he visits, Dahr begins to accept the dark fact that earth is almost certainly in a hospice situation. Ironically, this renews his passion for the planet\u2019s wild places, cherishing the earth in an entirely new way. Like no other book, The End of Ice offers a true narrative that includes photographs throughout by Dahr of his journey across the world, of the catastrophic reality of our predicament, and the incalculable necessity of relishing this vulnerable planet while it is still possible.\nAntonia Juhasz is a leading energy analyst, author, and investigative journalist specializing in oil.

I think we must act and act soon,\u201d he said.\n\u201cThis is not science-fiction.\u201d\nMr Cannon-Brookes, who Forbes estimated to have a fortune of $US3.4 billion last week, also had a warning for the retail sector.\n\u201cThe head-in-the-sand attitude of Australian businesses scares me a lot,\u201d he said.\n\u201cAmazon is going to tear apart Australian retail as they did in the US.\u201d\nMr Cannon-Brookes believes Australia is capable of building a world-class technology industry and skills to manage disruption.\nBut as it stands, many graduates are being lost to US-based tech giants contributing to a digital skills shortage in Australia.\n\u201cTry telling a 21-year-old kid that\u2019s going to work for Google or Amazon or Facebook that we have lots of opportunity for them in Sydney or Melbourne \u2013 it\u2019s hard,\u201d he said.\nThe Senate committee investigating the future of Australian workers is in Melbourne on Tuesday hearing evidence from unions, industry groups and think-tanks.",

        "title": "Money// Blade Factory/ 8.11.13 \u2013 LSRadio",
        "raw_content": "Money// Blade Factory/ 8.11.13\nFollowing Money\u2019s well received show at Leaf earlier in the year, the announcement of another Liverpool date at the Blade Factory seemed like an early Christmas present for many. Coming off the back of their critically lauded debut LP The Shadow of Heaven, it was going to be interesting to see whether their atmospheric sound would be just as encapsulating live. The support came in the form of Veyu who treat the audience with their Dreampop melodies that are heavily indebted to 1980s indie music, specifically the Cocteau Twins. There seems to be a substantial section of the crowd who have come to purely see Veyu, to the extent that it often seems as if they are actually the headlining band. This level of enthusiasm for a band playing second on the bill is encouraging to see but, however, came with irritating drawbacks. Once Veyu had finished their set, the section of die-hard Veyu fans decide to neglect the headliners to the degree of engaging in constant conversation and over-the-top, drink-induced laughter. Although this does make this review seem almost Scrooge-like in tone, it impacts on the more intimate and engaging parts of the show.\nJamie Lee saunters on stage, bottle of beer in hand, and launches into acapella song. Not using a microphone and without the rest of the band behind him, he engages with the crowd and everyone is silent- hanging on to his every word. Despite this being one of the show\u2019s highlights, it is tainted by the background noise created by disinterested Veyu fans. Lee finishes his song and offers beer to the audience, whilst the rest of the band enters on stage. They start with the album\u2019s opener, \u2018So Long (God is Dead)\u2019, with its souring melodies and Lee\u2019s heartfelt lyrics. Soon after they launch into \u2018Bluebell Fields\u2019 and play an extended and altogether more psychedelic version that turns the song into an immerse wall of sound, proving to be the show\u2019s highlight. The electronic manipulations of melodies and vocal lines of this live version of the track evoke the way in which Radiohead perform similar alterations during their live renditions of \u2018Everything in its Right Place\u2019. Frontman Jamie Lee eventually ends up standing at the front of the crowd, watching his band mates play whilst tapping his foot to the beat and drinking a bottle of whiskey. Recent single \u2018Hold Me Forever\u2019 follows soon after and it seems that Lee and the rest of the band have the unique quality of sounding as tight musically on record as they do live. Lee\u2019s vocals in particular are constantly impressive throughout the night, and keep the audience transfixed.\nThe band eventually launch into a ferocious rendition of \u2018Cold Water\u2019 that takes the audience aback and gasping for breath, with Lee frantically crying the song\u2019s line \u201crunning out, running out!\u201d whilst him and the rest of the band attack their instruments and create an energetic atmosphere. A lack of piano means that the piano ballads that feature on the album are not played and the set seems a little short in length. The sheer quality of the performance though, and the band\u2019s energy ensure that this doesn\u2019t affect their enjoyment and is certainly a case of quality over quantity. The audience leave the Blade Factory in awe of Money\u2019s talent regardless of the slightly shortened set. We await their next visit to Merseyside.\n/Joe Hallsworth",

Thanks to a couple of lacrosse players with a great deal of initiative, they have coordinated the game to be played this Thursday. Parents are more than welcome to come out and watch. We will be playing at the girl\u2019s lax practice field, which is the field directly behind the tennis courts at LSW.\nThe boys will use the girl\u2019s sticks, and the girls will use the boy\u2019s sticks. Boys will wear helmets (gloves are optional), and girls will wear their eye protection. The rules will be a hybrid of both styles of play, and Coach Hertzler (Girl\u2019s Head Coach) will be officiating the game. All players should wear their practice pinneys.\nSee you on Thursday!!!\n~Coach Hertzler",

        "raw_content": "Lucian Radu Teodorescu is a Software Architect from Cluj-Napoca, Romania. He holds a PhD in Computer Science, working on the creation of the Sparrow programming language.\nAfter work, if he is not involved in over-the-ocean Skype calls (work related), he is still working on the Sparrow programming language. Lucian is pretty fond of the Sparrow vision, and (foolishly?) thinks that with a bit of luck and a lot of hard work, Sparrow can be a widely used programming language.\nBesides working and working, Lucian can be found arguing philosophy with his beautiful wife Adriana (poet, researcher in Comparative Literature, Death Studies, Sociology). Empirically, these debates happen most of the time after midnight.\nLucian doesn\u2019t have a lot of friends; maybe because he doesn\u2019t like beer and clubs. He prefers quality over quantity.\nAfter trying various ways of expressing how you would pronounce his name (Lucian, Luke, Lucy, Luciano, Lucienne, etc.), he finally found the solution when had a hard time making the difference between how an English-speaking friend pronounced \u201csolution\u201d and \u201cso, Lucian\u201d. Therefore the joke: \u201cLucian, part of the solution\u201d.

        "raw_content": "I recently (re)read The Mad Man , by Samuel R. Delany. Which is a book that I\u2019m still trying to figure out: on the one hand, it\u2019s one of the most life-affirming books that I know, but on the other hand, it\u2019s pornography, and pornography where the protagonist spends a fair amount of time drinking piss. Which, if you\u2019d asked me earlier, wouldn\u2019t have been qualities that I would have expected to link together.\nThough, now that I think about it, perhaps I should revise my expectations. I might also use the term \u2018life-affirming\u2019 to describe the Kushiel trilogy, for example; and, while that series is not pornography, there\u2019s quite a bit of fucking going on it. No piss drinking that I can recall, but lots of pain inflicted as part of the sex in those books; still, the result is something that I very much see as on the side of the goodness in humanity. I\u2019m fairly sure that, by the end of this blog post, it will be clear that that isn\u2019t a coincidence, that there\u2019s a reason why my brain interprets both books that way.\nAnyways, back to The Mad Man . Like I said: pornography, piss drinking. The latter is far from the only sexual act in the book, or far from the only substance consumed: the protagonist spends a fair amount of time going down on other men (as does Delany himself, of course), so semen certainly shows up frequently. (One might even say that it spurts forth.) In fact, in general, if a substance comes out of a body, it gets consumed in this book: while the protagonist is not in this number, a couple of the side characters have a fondness for eating shit, to the extent that we run into people in the book who claim never to go to a bathroom, they just hold things in until they run across a friend who will dispose of their waste products for them.\nI suspect it\u2019s a manifestation of Delany\u2019s love of symmetry (or a hidden desire to be a management consultant?) that he completes the quadrant: we\u2019ve sexualized the production and consumption of solid and liquid waste products, and we have semen: if we wanted to make the latter solid, what would we do? The answer, of course, is to have characters who have stretched their foreskins to abnormal extents, and who like to whack off and then leave the semen hanging around in there for a few days; eventually, it apparently takes on a more solid, cheese-like texture, becoming a different sort of delicacy to be consumed by its aficionados. (The protagonist becoming one of those aficionados.) Who knows, maybe that is a thing, maybe this is simply Delany reporting.\nBecause report he does. I said above that the book is pornography, and if I had to pick a single genre label for it, that is the one that I\u2019d choose. But it crosses genre boundaries in ways that, for example, his Equinox doesn\u2019t: and one of its other themes is to provide a picture of what life could be like as a gay man in pre-AIDS New York City. And what life could be like is: you can get laid all you want, and if there are particular behaviors that you eroticize, you can easily find people to engage in it with you, should you so choose. So, for example, he goes into a fair amount of detail about a bar that regularly had evenings devoted to the consumption of piss, with loving descriptions of the care taken to make sure that your clothes are wearable, the way people replaced urinals in the bathrooms during those evenings, the effects on your insides of having large amounts of urine flowing through your system.\nOf course, pornography is (frequently) devoted to entirely imagined portrayals of sexual excess, but that\u2019s not what\u2019s going on in the above descriptions. For one thing, they\u2019re called out as reporting instead of pornography within the book itself: while the book describes a trip of the narrator\u2019s to that bar, it frames that trip in the context of a letter from the narrator to a less-cosmopolitan friend of his, giving context about the possible life of a philosopher that the narrator is describing, with the tone of: you clearly don\u2019t realize what the range of quite reasonable possible behavior for a gay New Yorker is, so I\u2019m going to explain it to you. (And, as I do a bit of googling, Delany didn\u2019t even construct a fictional bar as a composite of real examples: the Mineshaft, the bar he described, existed and was much as he said.) It\u2019s explicitly marked as reportage in the context of the book, and Delany these days clearly feels that it\u2019s important for him to speak out accurately about the variety and quantity of sex available for those desiring it: the interview that leads off The Polymath has him talking about a typical day of writing in the early sixties where he\u2019d work on a novel for a few hours in the morning, then go to a bathroom in Central Park and blow four or five men, then go home and write some more, then go to a movie theater for more sex, then grocery shop and go home and cook dinner for his wife, then write some more, then go off to the trucks to give another five blow jobs. Easily hundreds of sexual partners a month, thousands a year.\nThose movie theaters show up a lot in The Mad Man , too, and he\u2019s written a quite good nonfiction book about them, too, Times Square Red, Times Square Blue . That book is partly about the destruction of those theaters, and what we\u2019ve lost by that destruction. A theme that comes up in The Mad Man , too; and while I won\u2019t say it\u2019s the reason for their destruction (or for the shutting down of the Mineshaft), AIDS is one of the main ways in which the city government justified their actions in that regard. The Mad Man straddles the boundary of the appearance of AIDS, and explicitly addresses that transition.\nAddresses it not just in terms of what was lost in terms of institutions, but in much more personal terms: of having friends suddenly die, of living in fear not knowing that you\u2019re going to die, of living in resignation assuming that you must be infected, given the number of people you\u2019ve fucked, so what\u2019s the point of taking precautions? And it\u2019s written in (in my view entirely justified) anger at the scandalous paucity of solid research into what behaviors lead to what levels of risk of catching the disease. There\u2019s way too much unsupported \u201csex is scary and bad, especially gay sex\u201d talk out there, and on the sex-positive side way too much \u201csex is very dangerous without a condom but safe if you have one\u201d talk out there; Delany\u2019s survival (those thousands upon thousands of men he\u2019s gone down on weren\u2019t wearing condoms) gives anecdotal evidence that the truth is rather more nuanced than that, but anecdotal evidence isn\u2019t research. The Mad Man contains, as an appendix, a 1987 Lancet article entitled \u201cRisk Factors for Seroconversion to Human Immunodeficiency Virus among Male Homosexuals\u201d, which is a start; Delany claims that it hasn\u2019t (or at least hadn\u2019t at the time the book was written, say by 1994) been followed up in anything approaching an appropriate fashion. That is part of the context of the sex acts that are featured in the book: Delany wanted to write about people having (lots of!) sex in ways that could plausibly not lead to their getting AIDS.\nSo yeah, there\u2019s reportage in there, and well-done polemically-informed reportage at that. And, uh, reportage that\u2019s kind of hot. Which is one of the interesting things about the book: trying to figure out what\u2019s pornography, what\u2019s fiction that\u2019s describing people that fuck a lot but in realistic rather than fantastical ways, and what\u2019s reportage. That division isn\u2019t simply something I\u2019m reading into the book: as I mentioned above, the book explicitly addresses the existence of reportage, and it also explicitly addresses pornography, in the form of events told by narrators who prove later to be unreliable.\nAnd this variety of narration, coupled with an even wider variety of sexual acts that are described, means that when reading it, I\u2019m always asking myself: is this something I like to do? Is this something I would like to do, but haven\u2019t done? Is this something that I kind of think I would like to do but I\u2019d need to get drunk to have the courage to do it? Is this something that I think is hot to read about but that I really wouldn\u2019t want to do in real life? Is this this something that is so obviously fictionalized pornographic excess as to be too ridiculous to even think about in real life? Is this something that I wouldn\u2019t want to do about in real life, but am completely comfortable with the idea of? Is this something that I\u2019d honestly rather not think about too much, but that when I do think about it seems fine if that\u2019s what you\u2019re into? Is this something that seems wrong to me? There\u2019s stuff in the book that I\u2019d put into each of those categories, and mercifully little that I would put in the last of those categories; and one side effect of (re)reading it is that the number of acts that I\u2019d put into the next-to-last of those categories is shrinking.\nWhich is one of the reasons why I find the book so life-affirming. It sends a strong message that: whatever you\u2019re into (well, almost whatever you\u2019re into), that\u2019s okay, and you\u2019ll find somebody else who is into that, too, you\u2019ll find sexual satisfaction. And that\u2019s a glorious statement! And another message, that worrying too much about fitting yourself into boxes or what the correct labels are to apply to yourself just isn\u2019t necessary. For example, we frequently see in those theaters (and elsewhere) men who label themselves as straight but who really enjoy being (frequently!) blown by other men; the novel may gently poke fun at them for that label, and suggest that those men would be happier if they weren\u2019t so attached to it and could take a more honest look at their lives, but ultimately the fact that those men are finding sexual fulfillment is what matters.\nAlso, the book is equally strong on the flip side of that message: whatever you\u2019re not into is fine, too. Even if you label yourself as gay, that doesn\u2019t mean that you have to be into doing anything that another man wants. So there\u2019s little or no anal sex in the book, for example (mirroring Delany\u2019s own preferences), and generally characters in the book have a fairly strong leaning towards going down on other people or towards having other people go down on them. (Delany generally prefers the former.) It\u2019s fine to want to do A a lot, to never want to to B, to want to do C once or twice a week, to be happy enough to do D if you\u2019re with a partner who prefers it but to stay away from it otherwise, to have wanted to do E ten years ago but to not be into it these days, to not be quite sure yet if you want to do F or not. That, coupled with an equally strong message that people with complementary preferences are out there somewhere, is something that I find rather wonderful.\nSo far, I\u2019ve been mostly focusing on different kinds of sex acts. But, of course, there\u2019s a lot more to sexual desire than the act itself: doubtless there are people out there who would be happy to fuck anybody with the appropriate set of orifices/organs/desires to match their preferences in sex acts, but most of us get turned on/off by other specific physical characteristics and behaviors as well. And this too is a strength of Delany in general and of The Mad Man in particular.\nAny Delany fan is well aware by now of the frequency with which Delany\u2019s main characters get turned on when seeing somebody else with heavily bitten fingernails; this is one of Delany\u2019s own fetishes, but it also goes back to the life-affirming nature that I mentioned above: whatever you are into is okay. (Though, just to be clear here: I am not saying that I approve of all forms of sexual behavior, consent is crucial to me. I\u2019ll get to the intersection of desires with politics in a bit.) There is no need to feel shame; think about where your desires might come from, if you wish, but if you have a preference for something, that\u2019s fine. I honestly can\u2019t remember how much bitten fingernails show up in The Mad Man , but there\u2019s one key character who has quite the interest in the details of feet, for example.\nAnd equally life-affirming (actually, probably more life-affirming) is the converse: there\u2019s going to be something out there who is into you, even into aspects of yourself that society suggests you should be ashamed of; and, for that matter, just because society marks something as negative (or as positive) doesn\u2019t mean that anybody should care about that one way or another! (Again, I\u2019m talking about sexual attraction here, not politics.) The book reinforces that last point in a rather direct way: a lot of the people that the protagonist has sex with are homeless. (And not some sort of pornographically fantastic attractive young homeless people, either: homeless people who have had a rough time of it, who have been aged by the process.) It\u2019s not that the protagonist has a fetish for homeless people; he just doesn\u2019t care about that the way that society expects him to. I don\u2019t want to portray the book as autobiography, because it\u2019s not, but this isn\u2019t some sort of abstract political statement: Delany has been living for the last twenty years with a man he met while the latter was homeless. (See Bread & Wine for some of the details about that one.) Think about what\u2019s important to you (sexually, yes, but in a partner more generally), and try to see that without being blinded by what society tells you. (And, for that matter, try not to get too attached to those initial hypotheses if you haven\u2019t actually checked them against your behavior and feelings towards real people.)\nThat\u2019s the physical side of attraction, of eroticization; what about the mental side? This is actually the area in the book that gave me the most pause, as it turns out. To take one example, I hope I don\u2019t make a habit of calling people stupid in the real life, but I\u2019m sure I\u2019d be more likely to do that than to, say, drink piss; when reading and thinking about those two actions in the book, though, I end up realizing that the former bothers me rather more (and at a more fundamental level) than the latter.\nIt is very much to The Mad Man \u2018s credit, however, that it\u2019s helped me think through these issues, to understand where my boundaries lie and what\u2019s good about my disquiet, but also to appreciate the positive aspects of what he\u2019s describing. In general, if you\u2019re calling somebody stupid, you\u2019re just being an asshole. (At best: at it\u2019s all-too-common worst, it\u2019s actively destructive, potentially to the point of leaving scars for life.) I\u2019m coming around to understanding, though, that in an explicitly marked fantasy zone, that can be okay behavior.\nIn general, I\u2019m not hugely into talking dirty as an actual part of sex (though I\u2019m pretty strongly into verbal play in general, and I\u2019d be very unlikely to be attracted by somebody who didn\u2019t appreciate and wasn\u2019t capable of some level of verbal gymnastics), but I can see (I can feel!) the pleasure of talking dirty. Also, in general I\u2019m not into power play in sex (and there my sexual preferences mirror my non-sexual preferences), but I\u2019m not so blind as to deny the existence of that one, either. And, to be honest, I suspect that I\u2019d be perfectly happy to experiment with being on the submissive side of a sexual power dynamic, though I\u2019m also perfectly happy giving it a miss and I doubt that I\u2019d want to either go too far in that direction or make that a particularly frequent part of sex.\nSo: if modeling power relations turns you on, if insults are part of that, and if for that matter you get turned on by being called stupid, then that\u2019s totally up to you: your preferences are your preferences, your turn-ons are your turn-ons, and if you find a partner willing (even eager) to play a complementary role, then that\u2019s great. (That partner just won\u2019t be me!) Unlike some of the stuff I\u2019ve talked about above, I\u2019m not going to uncritically accept most power dynamic sexual preferences as being innate to your brain chemistry (in general, I\u2019m sure there are exceptions); but even if it is the case that those sexual desires are shaped in part by societal forces that I think are bad, even evil (which I\u2019m also not going to uncritically put forth!), that doesn\u2019t mean that it\u2019s a good idea to try to repress those sexual desires. Work with them, figure out how to find pleasure; and if they bother you, confront that, figure out what\u2019s going on, and it\u2019s my (quite uninformed) guess that you\u2019ll have more luck dealing with what bothers you in areas outside of sex first.\n(At least that\u2019s my current tentative working hypothesis. I really do not claim to have a well-informed opinion about all of this, and I\u2019m almost positive that there are ways in which I\u2019m being a condescending asshole here. And just typing the words \u201cbrain chemistry\u201d above reminds me of a conversation I had with a friend a couple of months ago that I should pick up again: she has a much more directly informed opinion about how brain chemistry would affect some of these issues than I do!)\nReturning to our specific example: in the grand scheme of things, calling somebody stupid is a relatively mild form of power dynamic; Delany confronts some power dynamics that are a lot worse, and where I\u2019m glad that it\u2019s a black man who is writing about them. The more intense the power dynamics get, the more he goes out of his way to emphasize the boundaries of where they\u2019re acceptable and where they\u2019re not, to emphasize that enjoying something in the context of sex does not in any way mean enjoying something in a different context, and that desiring a label in the context of sex does not mean that that label is either welcome or accurate in other contexts. And even with that, there was one place in the book where I was intensely grateful a certain bit of narration was revealed to be false within the book\u2019s internal context, a bit of internal pornography. Which relates to the distinction I mentioned above between sex acts that you\u2019d enjoy actually doing versus sex acts that you get turned on by reading about them: just as (consensual, always consensual!) interactions during sex are in a different space from interactions in other contexts, so too are explicitly fictional descriptions of behavior different from real-world behavior.\nPhew. Quite a book; quite a lot to think about. It certainly hits on my taboos\u2014I finished my most recent reading of the book more than two months ago, and it\u2019s taken me most of that time to accept that, yes, this book really is important enough to my brain that I\u2019m going to write about it even if that means writing about characters who are turned on by eating shit. (And this hesitation isn\u2019t purely academic: one real-life friend had asked about the book a couple of times, and when I finally gave in and started talking about it, got squicked out in quite short order by my description.) And, as is obvious from those last few paragraphs, it hits at issues that I\u2019m still not comfortable thinking about.\nBut the book has also helped me become surprisingly comfortable with a wide range of scenarios, and did so a way that points uniformly towards acceptance of and glorying in the wonderful variety of human behavior. And, equally important, in a way that paints a wonderfully optimistic picture of opportunities and acceptance that\u2019s out there for you! Delany\u2019s world is a fascinating one, and one that I like more and more as I\u2019m getting to know it better.\ni would seem to be excessively sedated \u00bb\n\u00ab zero patience\nTwo excellent pieces in a row, David! I must say, that on my end, I am processing quite a bit of various input all at once, and this has added to the load :) I\u2019ve been reading a lot of feminist stuff, and a lot of trans stuff and a lot of trans feminist stuff, all while I\u2019m trying to nail down some very slippery and complex connections that make me feel the way I do about certain things, all while these various new inputs are jiggling everything around on me.\nAnd we need to have coffee sometime soon, because I\u2019d love to have that brain-chemistry discussion, and I have some reportage of my own regarding a surprising amount of the things you mention here, which may be interesting to hear from someone with my perspective :)\nComment by Stephen Frug\nHere via Delany list. Fabulous, thoughtful post. Thanks for linking to it.\nComment by Dan'l\nAn excellent post. Thanks, it brought out some of the things in The Mad Man I had not caught, which is important because it (and Hogg) really do squick me.\nComment by Nick Polak\nAlso here from the Delany list. Outstanding essay. Certainly addressed my extremely ambivalent feelings about the book. Happy New Year.\nThanks! And Hogg, wow, that is a book that shows where my limits are\u2026",

There it will show its new range of smartphones Zenfone 5, and game mobile phone could become part of it. It is not excluded, of course, that it was a separate gadget \u2013 it could very easily become a part of the game series RoG, which is much more logical.\nCurrently, information about the characteristics of a mobile phone no, but it is quite obvious that we are waiting for a top device with a Qualcomm processor 835 or 845 even, 6 or 8 GB of RAM and some advanced display, for example, with a refresh rate of 120 Hz as the Razer Phone. According to analysts, the gaming smartphone will become a trend of the current and the following years, the concept of flagship smartphones will shift towards business models with simple design.

        "title": "Does Attorney General Jeff Sessions have a conflict of interest? - Michele I. Khoury",
        "raw_content": "As I researched drug trafficking for my first novel, Busted, my opinion about illegal drugs changed. Previously I\u2019d supported the war on drugs; after all, drugs are bad. Over time, I came to the conclusion that prohibition doesn\u2019t work, and in fact, creates a black market where illegal and illicit substances thrive without regulations. My new philosophy was reinforced by a 60 Minutes segment that reported the U.S. has 5% of the world\u2019s population, 25% of the world\u2019s prisoners, and spends $80 billion per year on incarceration.\nIn 2013, in an attempt to change the rate of incarceration for low-level drug offenders, then Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. directed federal prosecutors to omit details about drug quantities from charging documents, so as not to automatically prompt harsh penalties for low-level offenders. This change was described in a New York Times article.\nOn May 12, 2017, the Los Angeles Times reported that Attorney General Jeff Sessions pledged to redouble the war on drugs and sent a memo to federal prosecutors to pursue the highest charges possible for low-level offenders. So where\u2019s the potential conflict? According to the Mr. Sessions\u2019s personal disclosures, he owns shares in Vanguard funds that include holdings in two leading private prison companies, CoreCivic and GEO Group. The more people who are incarcerated, the more private prisons benefit. According to Snopes.com the fund is a diversified fund as opposed to being a sector fund. Because it is independently managed, it is not subject to the conflict of interest statue. Therefore, while Mr. Sessions has a vested interest in increasing the prison population, he does not have a conflict of interest.\nAt my book launching party, retired Superior Court James Gray said, \u201cThis Draconian approach has proven to be ineffective, and will only result in incarcerating more individuals.\u201d\nI rest my case. Do you agree? What are your thoughts?\n4 thoughts on \u201cDoes Attorney General Jeff Sessions have a conflict of interest?\u201d\nJoanne Wilshin\nDraconian drug laws, in my opinion, favor private prisons and those that profit from the state incarcerating people. The latter two groups flourish when people are bad, and thus will encourage bad behavior. It\u2019s cruel and not helpful to society.\nI 100% agree with you Michele. This is a vicious cycle that needs another solution then incarceration. Drug addicts believe they need their drug of choice to live. That means they must find a way to get it and that often means performing an illegal act because they can\u2019t, won\u2019t, or are unable to hold down a job. Jailing them for their crime and not addressing the reason they did the crime does nothing but temporarily take them off the streets. They get back out and repeat the cycle. Not to mention the impact on health care, child welfare, and other social systems trying to respond to the effects of drug addiction. Oh, I could go on and on\u2026 Keep up the good fight Michele, there are lots of us out here with you.\nOh my, Nora. All excellent points!",

Our mission is to deal with technological challenges of automobiles and of future mobility: sustainability, safety, connected cars and affordable mobility. We supply users with many solutions that are flexible, cost-effective and yet feature a high technological content, solutions that answer the pressing questions concerning progress and evolution of the automotive world. We push towards solutions that are sustainable at both the environmental and economic level, with innovative contents even in terms of emission reduction, consumption and safety. We satisfy the need, through telematics and infomobility, to connect cars to the huge world of communication networks, Internet and services, especially in order to govern and monitor their uses and flows, optimise their operating costs and emissions, and bring value-added information and entertainment onboard the vehicle.\nAnother Magneti Marelli\u2019s distinguishing feature is our truly genuine global approach. At the bottom of it all there is the idea of being effectively close to our customers and therefore being able to offer them the best support possible. Then there is a dynamics of \u201cexchange\u201d and osmosis that is created in the network of our operations and localisations throughout the world: technologies and ideas born in one place around the world come back improved for further applications, applications stimulate ideas and so on, involving people and workers on all continents in a common growth. In order to sustain this type of globalisation, an \u201copen\u201d approach is needed, and this is another characteristic that can be associated with Magneti Marelli vision. The concept of Openness can be referred to many contexts:\nTechnological openness: one of the challenges we face is the one to keep systems accessible and linkable, inside a complex structure as it is today a car, as witnessed by our commitment in electronics and communication open platforms;\nCultural openness: drawing the best from differences (which are a precious resource), from integration, from partnerships, from points of contact between many worlds, approaches, humanities and cultures, not only technological ones, which are part of our company, and turning them into a unique and winning mix in which the whole enhances and improves the parts that make up the whole;\nBusiness model openness: we look for the best partners with whom to achieve our objectives, and we are open to finding the best ways and the best methods with which to cooperate with them, encouraging common growth and improving performances.\nIn this sense, then, our motto \u201c A part of\u2026..\u201d perfectly summarises these elements and our role: being an active part of a system \u2013 whether it is the automobile, the mobility or the market \u2013 and make integration between all the \u201cparts\u201d easier.",

        "title": "Review: John Carter | Movie Muse",
        "raw_content": "When we think of science fiction, we so often think about the future. We expect it to stretch our imaginations in ways we never thought possible with groundbreaking concepts beyond our current understanding. \u201cJohn Carter\u201d appears to aspire to that level. Yet in spite of the film\u2019s hefty price tag, use of latest in motion-capture technology, 3D conversion and all the other tell-tale signs of an ambitious blockbuster, \u201cJohn Carter\u201d is classic, old-school sci fi/fantasy at heart.\nAnd that\u2019s the way it should be. After all, the source material comes from Edgar Rice Burroughs\u2019 \u201cA Princess of Mars,\u201d a pulp story nearly 100 years old. Rather than give us a \u201cJohn Carter\u201d for the 21st Century, director Andrew Stanton gives us \u201cJohn Carter\u201d as made possible by the technological advancements of the 21st Century.\nIt starts with a vision, and that\u2019s what Stanton (and all Pixar disciples) brings to the table. One can imagine the concept art he used to sell this movie to Disney didn\u2019t change much from inception to the film canister. Anyone with unadulterated love for science fiction will be captivated by the \u201cJohn Carter\u2019s\u201d production design. Especially in terms of costume and the big set pieces, the film has that Roman-inspired sci-fi look reminiscent of \u201cFlash Gordon\u201d and in some cases \u201cStar Wars.\u201d\nAs with most classical science fiction, the story deals almost exclusively in archetypes. Captain John Carter (Taylor Kitsch) is a Civil War veteran who at the story\u2019s beginning is dead. He has willed and entrusted his journal to his nephew, a fictionalized version of Burroughs (Sabara), the contents of which explain all that\u2019s happened to him over the years, including how he ended up on Mars. Transported there mysteriously while prospecting for gold in Arizona, Carter becomes a near-prophetic hero to the planet\u2019s race of green creatures called Tharks, but also saves a \u201cred\u201d woman named Dejah Thoris (Lynn Collins), who is a princess that begs of his help to end a brutal war.\nThe story and script maintains its composure throughout, something at which science-fiction films often fail. It starts like pulp and ends like pulp rather than aspiring to be above the material. Consequently, \u201cJohn Carter\u201d does little to appeal to anyone but a true sci-fi nerd; it asks us to embrace this fantastical world on Mars (or I should say Barsoom), just as Carter the character works his way through his interplanetary transplant rather than freaking out about it. Stanton and co-writers Mark Andrews and Michael Chabon (the novelist) spare us all the inane dialogue about how weird everything is on this planet. Carter just accepts it, and fans of this film will be the ones who follow his example.\nThe scope and scale of the film feels quite close to \u201cAvatar,\u201d as both were about visual wonder and stuck to basic storytelling. \u201cJohn Carter\u201d only loses points in terms of the quantity and intensity of the action sequences and the depth of character. Kitsch and Collins make for likable leads and you believe the emotions they feel, but they\u2019re undeniably cookie-cutter.\nSome of the side characters, including Tars Tarkas (Willem Dafoe) and Sola (Samantha Morton) show potential for some emotional pull, but it\u2019s all short-lived as the story is constantly on the move to the next locale or sequence. The personal moments between characters are reserved for exposition and expanding the lore of Barsoom. Again, great for geeks, but I can\u2019t imagine it will please much of anyone else.\nSimply, \u201cJohn Carter\u201d is for nostalgists. Instead of being your modern science-based science fiction, this is the kind steeped in fantasy. It will make many recall the first time they experienced \u201cStar Wars\u201d or any similar film or television show that crafted its own world or universe. Stanton provides no shortage of things to marvel at, a variety of people, places and vehicles bound to capture the imaginations of younger moviegoers and gratify those who used to be those younger moviegoers.\nThere was a time when \u201cJohn Carter\u201d would have been a major hit and blown the minds of everyone who saw it. Science fiction has just evolved to the point that this kind of a story captures a specific time in our storytelling history rather than opening our eyes to the possibility of the future. That\u2019s the difference between \u201cJohn Carter\u201d and \u201cAvatar,\u201d for one thing. So as much as Stanton and Disney have used the advances in special effects to tell this story in a way that it never could before and does so quite well, \u201cJohn Carter\u201d offers a very specific type of entertainment best for a niche audience.\nWritten by Andrew Stanton, Mark Andrews, Michael Chabon, Edgar Rice Burroughs (novel)\n\u2190 The Most Ambitious Films in Movie History\nI\u2019m surprised this movie has been doing as well critically as it has. I imagine my own take would be more along the same lines as the 3.5/5 here, but at the very least, I\u2019m not interested in actually picking up the Blu-ray when it comes out, though I won\u2019t expect anything great.\nKinda sucks for this movie how it\u2019s evolution turned out, though. I think, due to the good word of mouth, it would have great potential to have long legs and do much better in the weeks to come. However, enter 21 Jump Street and Hunger Games and those potential long legs are suddenly cut short.",

But by then, the Cell C Sharks had racked up a 19-3 lead and never relinquished it for a very satisfactory victory.\n\u201cIt was a great occasion to play at Moses Mabhida Stadium, it was just a pit about the weather. To play here was a big occasion for the boys.\n\u201cI thought it was a good exercise although the conditions weren\u2019t great which was a real pity,\u201d the coach admitted.\n\u201cBut I thought the boys did really well in their first outing. The youngsters played really well, I was very happy with their contributions.\u201d\nOne of those was Aphelele Fassi whose 60m try, a wonderfully exciting solo effort, took the wind out of the visitors\u2019 sails.\n\u201cHe\u2019s a kid with lots of talent and I\u2019m really looking forward to seeing how he goes in the Currie Cup this year,\u201d said du Preez.\n\u201cBut singling out individual players isn\u2019t fair, I just thought all the boys who pulled on the jersey for the first time did really well, I was very impressed with the effort out there, we had to control a lot of scraps on the floor, the loose balls and their reactions were really great.\u201d\nDu Preez also lauded the contribution of Nick Easter who has recently joined the team as breakdown coach.\n\u201cNick has been here for a week and doing the breakdown with the team, he\u2019s a guy with loads of experience as a rugby player and I\u2019m sure the forwards in particular will learn a lot from him. He\u2019s been coaching at Harlequins as defensive coach for the last couple of years so he comes with a lot of value. It\u2019s great to have him with us and we\u2019re all hoping to learn a lot from him.\u201d\nDespite losing numerous players to the Springboks and Japan, the Cell C Sharks were able to put on a commendable performance.\n\u201cIt\u2019s good to have the experience in the team, you always need a nice mix of experience and youth, but you want to bring the youngsters through and I\u2019m really excited about seeing them playing in the Currie Cup, it will be a good platform for them going forward into Super Rugby next year.\n\u201cThe Currie Cup is a great competition to create that momentum.\u201d\nGood news confirmed by the coach was that the team suffered no injuries and that they could now look ahead to the Currie Cup.\n\u201cI think this match was exactly what we needed for preparing for the Bulls, having said that, the Bulls beat the Cheetahs in Bloemfontein quite impressively so it\u2019s going to be a very tough game.\u201d\nThe post Perfect Preparation appeared first on Sharks Rugby.\nFiled Under: Blogs Tagged With: Blog, durban, Facebook, Featured, page, Sharks, wins\nPrevious: Opportunities at The Loeries 2018 \u2013 Featured Durban Blog\nNext: Well-earned Break \u2013 Featured Durban Blog",

It started as a Facebook page and turned into a movement with plans to approach the city to get them behind their push.\nWith the Casinos moving to town Shreveport has seen a lot more tourists and for those driving in from Texas, a rundown stadium is one of the first things they see. The man behind the movement is Shayne Sharkey who wants to turn the stadium into a multi-use stadium for kids to play sports.

        "raw_content": "NABC Next Generation is an interview series with assistant coaches and support staff from across the country, highlighting their career experiences and future goals. Today's feature is Cincinnati video coordinator Greg Youncofski.\n\u201cBasketball has been my passion for as long as I could remember. Everything about the game\u2014playing, coaching, learning the history of the game, etc.\u2014I absolutely love. Having an opportunity to impact the lives of young men in a positive manner is the most rewarding part of having a career in coaching. I was lucky enough to have a coach growing up, Coach Brian Murray, who had a great impact on myself and I look to have the same impact on players I coach in the future.\u201d\n\u201cThere are several important skills for young professionals in the industry to possess. Having a high level work capacity and the ability to do more work efficiently is one of the keys. It is also important to be humble in this business. Be willing to take on any task that is necessary to help make things easier on your staff and the program. If you think that you are too big for a small job, then you are certainly too small for a big job.\u201d\n\u201cDeveloping mentor relationships is important to people in any field. Aligning yourself with the right people\u2014people who care about your success and want to help you grow your career\u2014is very important in any profession. I have been extremely fortunate to have worked for two historic programs and two great head coaches. I got a great head start in college as a student-manager at the University of Kansas. Getting the chance to work for Coach Bill Self in college provided an outstanding foundation for my career and basketball knowledge. I learned something new every day. Currently, I am lucky to be at another great program, the University of Cincinnati. In my time here, Coach Mick Cronin has helped me develop tremendously as a young coach. I\u2019ve learned a lot from Coach Cronin about being disciplined and holding yourself accountable. Also, I have been blessed to work with great assistant coaches along the way who have given me different responsibilities that help me continue to develop.\u201d\nContinuing to learn the game every day. As video coordinator, I get to watch film on our team and also breakdown film on our opponents. I learn a lot just by seeing what different teams do and trying to figure out why they do what they do. Also, continuing to build relationships with players, coaches, and administration. Basketball gives you a great opportunity to build relationships with all kinds of people, and I try to do that to the best of my ability.\u201d\n\u201cMy next career goal is to become an assistant coach and my end goal is to become a head coach. I think the best way to achieve your goals is to do a great job at your current job. I know that if I do a great job in my current role and get a little bit better every day, doors will open up.\u201d\n\u201cI think it is best to not know, especially early on in your career. Experience is the best teacher and I feel like my experiences in coaching, good or bad, have helped make me the person I am today.\u201d",

Its objectives are to facilitate enhanced understanding of issues in the chemical sciences and technologies that affect government, industry, academic, national laboratory, and nonprofit sectors, and the interactions among them; and to furnish a vehicle for education, exchange of information and discussion of issues and trends that affect the chemical sciences. It accomplishes these goals, in part, by organizing workshops on highly relevant and important topics\u2013for which published proceedings are made broadly available throughout the chemical sciences community. These workshops and the proceedings are designed to enable follow-up discussion or action by others in the chemical sciences community.\n2017 \u2013 The Chemistry of Microbiomes\nThe 21st century has witnessed a complete revolution in the understanding and description of bacteria in eco- systems and microbial assemblages, and how they are regulated by complex interactions among microbes, hosts, and environments. The human organism is no longer considered a monolithic assembly of tissues, but is instead a true ecosystem composed of human cells, bacteria, fungi, algae, and viruses. As such, humans are not unlike other complex ecosystems containing microbial assemblages observed in the marine and earth environments. They all share a basic functional principle: Chemical communication is the universal language that allows such groups to properly function together. These chemical networks regulate interactions like metabolic exchange, antibiosis and symbiosis, and communication.\n2014 \u2013 Chemistry and Engineering of Shale Gas and Tight Oil Resource Development\n2014 \u2013 Mesoscale Chemistry\nAs a result of this workshop a summary of the talks and the discussion will be published. Questions considered during the workshop will include:\n2013 \u2013 Technological Challenges in Antibiotic Discovery and Development\n2013 \u2013 Undergraduate Chemistry Education\nUndergraduate Chemistry Education is the summary of a workshop convened in May 2013 by the Chemical Science Roundtable of the National Research Council to explore the current state of undergraduate chemistry education. Research and innovation in undergraduate chemistry education has been done for many years, and one goal of this workshop was to assist in the transfer of lessons learned from the education research community to faculty members whose expertise lies in the field of chemistry rather than in education. Through formal presentations and panel discussions, participants from academia, industry, and funding organizations explored drivers of change in science, technology, engineering and mathematics education; innovations in chemistry education; and challenges and opportunities in chemistry education reform. Undergraduate Chemistry Education discusses large-scale innovations that are transferable, widely applicable, and/or proven successful, with specific consideration of drivers and metrics of change, barriers to implementation of changes, and examples of innovation in the classroom.\n2012 \u2013 Opportunities and Obstacles in Large-Scale Biomass Utilization: The Role of the Chemical Sciences and Engineering Communities\nBased on a one-day public workshop held in Washington, DC, Opportunities and Obstacles in Large-Scale Biomass Utilization: The Role of the Chemical Sciences and Engineering Communities: A Workshop Summary explores the current state of biomass utilization for bulk-production of sustainable fuels and chemicals. The discussion focused on the chemistry and chemical engineering opportunities to meet the aforementioned objectives. Both formal presentations and breakout working groups were components of the workshop in an effort to stimulate engaging discussion among participants from widely varying fields.\n2011 \u2013 The Role of Chemical Sciences in Finding Alternatives to Critical Resources\nIn September 2011, the Chemical Sciences Roundtable organized a workshop on the topic, \u201cThe Role of Chemical Sciences in Finding Alternatives to Critical Resources.\u201d The one-and-a-half-day workshop addressed key topics, including the economic and political matrix, the history of societal responses to key mineral and material shortages, the applications for and properties of existing minerals and materials, and the chemistry of possible replacements. The workshop featured several presentations highlighting the importance of critical nonfuel mineral and material resources in history, catalysis, agriculture, and electronic, magnetic, and optical applications.\nThe Role of the Chemical Sciences in Finding Alternatives to Critical Resources: A Workshop Summary explains the presentations and discussions that took place at the workshop. In accordance with the policies of the NRC, the workshop did not attempt to establish any conclusions or recommendations about needs and future directions, focusing instead on issues identified by the speakers.\n2010 \u2013 Challenges in Characterizing Small Particles: Exploring Particles from the Nano- to Microscales\nSmall particles are ubiquitous in the natural and built worlds and have tremendous impact throughout. However, a lack of understanding about the properties and chemical composition of small particles limits our ability to predict, and control their applications and impacts.\nChallenges in Characterizing Small Particles: Exploring Particles from the Nano- to Microscales summarizes presentations and discussions at a 2010 National Academies roundtable. Speakers at this roundtable discussed the crucial types of information that need to be determined about small particles in different media. They also explored the critical importance of small particles in environmental science, materials and chemical sciences, biological science, and engineering, and the many challenges involved in characterizing materials at the nano- and microscales. The discussions on characterization included static, dynamic, experimental, computational, and theoretical characterization. The workshop also included several \u201cresearch tool\u201d presentations that highlighted new advances in characterizing small particles.\n2010 \u2013 Chemistry in Primetime and Online: Communicating Chemistry in Informal Environments\nIn May 2010, the National Academies\u2019 Chemical Sciences Roundtable held a workshop to examine how the public obtains scientific information informally and to discuss methods that chemists can use to improve and expand efforts to reach a general, nontechnical audience. Workshop participants included chemical practitioners (e.g., graduate students, postdocs, professors, administrators); experts on informal learning; public and private funding organizations; science writers, bloggers, publishers, and university communications officers; and television and Internet content producers. Chemistry in Primetime and Online is a factual summary of what occurred in that workshop.\nChemistry in Primetime and Online examines science content, especially chemistry, in various informal educational settings. It explores means of measuring recognition and retention of the information presented in various media formats and settings. Although the report does not provide any conclusions or recommendations about needs and future directions, it does discuss the need for chemists to connect more with professional writers, artists, or videographers, who know how to communicate with and interest general audiences. It also emphasizes the importance of formal education in setting the stage for informal interactions with chemistry and chemists.\n2008 \u2013 Strengthening High School Chemistry Education through Teacher Outreach Programs\nA strong chemical workforce in the United States will be essential to the ability to address many issues of societal concern in the future, including demand for renewable energy, more advanced materials, and more sophisticated pharmaceuticals. High school chemistry teachers have a critical role to play in engaging and supporting the chemical workforce of the future, but they must be sufficiently knowledgeable and skilled to produce the levels of scientific literacy that students need to succeed.\nTo identify key leverage points for improving high school chemistry education, the National Academies\u2019 Chemical Sciences Roundtable held a public workshop, summarized in this volume, that brought together representatives from government, industry, academia, scientific societies, and foundations involved in outreach programs for high school chemistry teachers. Presentations at the workshop, which was held in August 2008, addressed the current status of high school chemistry education; provided examples of public and private outreach programs for high school chemistry teachers; and explored ways to evaluate the success of these outreach programs.\n2007 \u2013 Bioinspired Chemistry for Energy\nFaced with the steady rise in energy costs, dwindling fossil fuel supplies, and the need to maintain a healthy environment \u2013 exploration of alternative energy sources is essential for meeting energy needs. Biological systems employ a variety of efficient ways to collect, store, use, and produce energy. By understanding the basic processes of biological models, scientists may be able to create systems that mimic biomolecules and produce energy in an efficient and cost effective manner. On May 14-15, 2007 a group of chemists, chemical engineers, and others from academia, government, and industry participated in a workshop sponsored by the Chemical Sciences Roundtable to explore how bioinspired chemistry can help solve some of the important energy issues the world faces today. The workshop featured presentations and discussions on the current energy challenges and how to address them, with emphasis on both the fundamental aspects and the robust implementation of bioinspired chemistry for energy.\n2005 \u2013 Exploring Opportunities in Green Chemistry and Engineering Education\nIn this workshop, widespread implementation of green chemistry into undergraduate and graduate education was explored. This workshop focused on the integration of green chemistry and engineering into the established and developing chemistry and chemical engineering curricula.\nLeading educators and industry managers showcased exemplary programs and provided a forum for discussion and critical thinking about the development, evaluation, and dissemination of promising educational activities in green chemistry.\n2004 \u2013 Preparing Chemists and Chemical Engineers for a Globally Oriented Workforce\nGlobalization the flow of people, goods, services, capital, and technology across international borders is significantly impacting the chemistry and chemical engineering professions. Chemical companies are seeking new ideas, a trained workforce, and new market opportunities regardless of geographic location. During an October 2003 workshop, leaders in chemistry and chemical engineering from industry, academia, government, and private funding organizations explored the implications of an increasingly global research environment for the chemistry and chemical engineering workforce. The workshop presentations described deficiencies in the current educational system and the need to create and sustain a globally aware workforce in the near future. The goal of the workshop was to inform the Chemical Sciences Roundtable, which provides a science-oriented, apolitical forum for leaders in the chemical sciences to discuss chemically related issues affecting government, industry, and universities.\n2004 \u2013 Water and Sustainable Development: Opportunities for the Chemical Sciences\nThis workshop was organized by the Chemical Sciences Roundtable of BCST on the topic Water and Sustainable Development: Opportunities for the Chemical Sciences. The workshop brought together top experts in the area of water science and technology and leaders in chemistry and chemical engineering from government, industry, and academia. This interaction was intended to enhance the synergy between these two communities and help engage a broader cross section of the chemical sciences community in this important arena of science and technology. The workshop sessions provided technical background and explored enhanced roles that the chemical sciences R&D community might play in identifying and addressing the issues that make water a critical limiting factor in human economic development and sustainability. The goal of the workshop was to inform the Chemical Sciences Roundtable. In that process, it may also engage the broad chemical sciences community in addressing the question of how to ensure the adequate supply of water that is required for public health, sustainable agriculture and food security, energy generation, and economic growth.\n2003 \u2013 Reducing the Time from Basic Research to Innovation in the Chemical Sciences\nInnovation, the process by which fundamental research becomes a commercial product, is increasingly important in the chemical sciences and is changing the nature of research and development (R&D) efforts in the United States. The workshop \u201cReducing the Time from Basic Research to Innovation in the Chemical Sciences\u201d was held in response to pressures to speed the R&D process and to rapidly evolving patterns of interaction among industry, academe, and national laboratories. The aim of the workshop was to identify and discuss approaches that might speed the innovation process by which basic research leads to innovation.\nThe papers in this volume are the authors\u2019 own versions of their presentations. The discussion comments were taken from a transcript of the workshop. In accordance with the policies of the CSR, the workshop did not attempt to establish any conclusions or recommendations about needs and future directions, focusing instead on issues identified by the speakers.\n2003 \u2013 Minorities in the Chemical Workforce: Diversity Models that Work\nThe topic of \u201cMinorities in the Chemical Workforce: Diversity Models that Work\u201d was selected by the CSR in response to concerns in the chemical sciences community about diversity in chemistry and chemical engineering. There is general recognition that future success of the chemical enterprise will require the full participation of all demographic groups, but such participation has not been achieved. After years of discussions on this topic, a workshop was planned for March 2002.\nThe workshop on Minorities in the Chemical Workforce: Diversity Models that Work brought together leaders in chemistry and chemical engineering from government, industry, academia, and the not-for-profit sector to gather information and explore approaches that would optimize participation by the full range of intellectual talent in the chemical workforce. Its primary focus was to expose the participants, primarily chemists and chemical engineers from all sectors, to examples of successful efforts to recruit and retain minorities\u2014at the undergraduate level, in graduate programs, and in the chemical workforce. The focus was practical and realistic needs of institutions and opportunities for minorities in the chemical sciences. The workshop explored opportunities and challenges for transferring the prior successes into a variety of new settings in which those trained in the chemical sciences are employed.\n2001 \u2013 Carbon Management: Implications for R&D in the Chemical Sciences and Technology\nConsiderable international concerns exist about global climate change and its relationship to the growing use of fossil fuels. Carbon dioxide is released by chemical reactions that are employed to extract energy from fuels, and any regulatory policy limiting the amount of CO2 that could be released from sequestered sources or from energy-generating reactions will require substantial involvement of the chemical sciences and technology R&D community.\nMuch of the public debate has been focused on the question of whether global climate change is occurring and, if so, whether it is anthropogenic, but these questions were outside the scope of the workshop, which instead focused on the question of how to respond to a possible national policy of carbon management. Previous discussion of the latter topic has focused on technological, economic, and ecological aspects and on earth science challenges, but the fundamental science has received little attention. This workshop was designed to gather information that could inform the Chemical Sciences Roundtable in its discussions of possible roles that the chemical sciences community might play in identifying and addressing underlying chemical questions.\n2000 \u2013 Women in the Chemical Workforce\nWomen in the chemical workforce was identified as a workshop topic by the CSR in response to broad concerns in the chemical sciences community about underutilization of women in chemistry and chemical engineering. To provide a forum for exploring these concerns, a workshop was planned for May 2000.\nThe workshop, \u201cWomen in the Chemical Workforce,\u201d gathered leaders in chemistry and chemical engineering from government, industry, and academia together with experts from the social sciences and from business to explore practical approaches to improving the effectiveness of employers from all sectors in hiring and enabling the success of female professionals in chemistry. I am grateful to those members of the roundtable who provided key assistance in identifying topics and people for the workshop. A special note of thanks goes to Dr. Jong-On Hahm of the National Research Council\u2019s Committee on Women in Science and Engineering for her advice and assistance in organizing the workshop.\n1999 \u2013 Graduate Education in the Chemical Sciences: Issues for the 21st Century\nGraduate education in the chemical sciences was identified by the CSR as an area of broad interest to the chemical sciences community, which has expressed concern about how it should respond to evolving expectations for universities, both in education and research, and to changing patterns in professional employment of advanced degree holders\u2014both in the short and long term. To provide a forum for exploring these concerns, an organizing committee was formed and a workshop was planned for December 1999.\nThe workshop, \u201cGraduate Education in the Chemical Sciences: Issues for the 21st Century,\u201d brought together scientific leaders in government, industry, and academia to explore and discuss the various features of graduate education in chemical science and technology. Using case histories and their individual experiences, speakers examined the current status of graduate education in the chemical sciences, identified problems and opportunities, and discussed possible strategies for improving the system. The discussion was oriented toward the goal of generating graduates who are well prepared to advance the chemical sciences in academia, government, and industry in the next 5 to 10 years.\n1999 \u2013 Research Teams and Partnerships: Trends in the Chemical Sciences\nAt its December 1997 and May 1998 meetings, the CSR identified the topic of research teams and partnerships as an area of broad interest in the chemical sciences community. To provide a forum for exploring this topic, an organizing committee was formed, and a workshop was planned for May 1999. The aim of the workshop was to discuss the circumstances under which research and development (R&D) teams and partnerships in the chemical sector are appropriate and successful. Issues put forward for discussion included examination of the goals of R&D teams and partnerships, the barriers to implementing them, their potential benefits, and the available methodologies for carrying them out. What are the key trends, how are collaborations changing as a result, and how are best practices evolving?\nThe workshop, \u201cResearch Teams and Partnerships: Trends in the Chemical Sciences,\u201d brought together research scientists, managers, and technology transfer specialists from government, industry, and academia to discuss and explore the trends and potential impacts of partnerships and teams for the conduct of research in the chemical sciences.\n1998 \u2013 Impact of Advances in Computing and Communications Technologies on Chemical Science and Technology\nAt its second meeting in December 1997, the CSR identified the topic of information technology as an issue of increasing importance to all sectors of the chemical enterprise. As we rely increasingly on computers for obtaining, recording, communicating, and publishing the scientific data that enables progress in our discipline, it is correspondingly important that we consider the new and developing ways that this essential technology can be used effectively. At the same time, we must also consider the impact of the evolving technology on all sectors of our discipline and on the ways that these sectors interact.\nTo provide a forum for exploring this topic, an organizing committee was formed, and a workshop was planned for November 1998. The workshop, \u201cThe Impact of Advances in Computing and Communications Technologies on Chemical Science and Technology,\u201d brought together research scientists and managers from government, industry, and academia to review and discuss the rapid changes in computer technology that are influencing activities in the chemical sciences.\n1997 \u2013 Assessing the Value of Research in the Chemical Sciences\nAt its first meeting in February 1997, the CSR identified the topic of assessing the value of research as an issue of increasing importance to all sectors of the chemical sciences. In a world with many needs and limited resources, it is important to find mechanisms to assess the value of various endeavors so that resources can be focused on those activities expected to yield the maximum benefit to humankind and society. These such endeavors include scientific research, long protected by its linkage to national security. But the very nature of scientific inquiry\u2014its inherent complexity and interconnections, long lead times from discovery to demonstration, and focus on the unknown\u2014poses formidable obstacles to developing a set of criteria for predetermining the value of research. To provide a forum for exploring this topic, an organizing committee was formed, and a workshop was planned for September 1997. The resulting workshop, \u201cAssessing the Value of Research in the Chemical Sciences,\u201d brought together research managers from government, industry, and academia to review and discuss the mechanisms that have been proposed or used to assess the value of chemical research.",

        "raw_content": "Bison are the most common large mammals to see in the park. They can be found in a lot of different areas and are usually pretty photogenic. They don\u2019t tend to run off when they see you lift your camera, so they are a great species to get some good images of. Yellowstone has the largest American Bison herd in the world, so finding them within the park won\u2019t be a challenge. See below to check out the map and read about the best areas to find bison in Yellowstone park.\nWhere to Find Bison in the Park\nAs you will see in the map below, bison have a large territory in the park. Most bison herds are Northern 2/3 of Yellowstone, but small random herds can be found just about anywhere there is open grassland. Probably the best place to see bison in Yellowstone is around Old Faithful and in Hayden valley just North of Yellowstone Lake.\nThe Dangers of Bison in the Park\nFact: Bison hurt more people than any other animals in the park. They might be soft and fluffy looking, but they can get cranky real quick. You should never attempt to get close to this species for that \u201cgreat photo\u201d and you certainly shouldn\u2019t be getting close enough to take bison selfies.\nIn the video below you will see a group of people who were attacked by a bison by Old Faithful. This type of thing happens all too often in the park.\nGood luck finding bison in the park and remember to be careful when you do!",

        "title": "The Necro Files: Month of Megadeth: Countdown to Extinction",
        "raw_content": "After the success of Rust in Peace, Megadeth aims for the number one spot. A calculated balance between radio friendly song structures and a scorching line-up ready for immolation makes Countdown to Extinction one of the few heavy metal records with pop sensibilities that won't make you hurl.\nPETA protesting against the use of fur. Even though I support seal clubbing, I must admit I prefer women without fur. I prefer them naked too.\nThere's nowhere you can really go after a record like Rust in Peace. Of course, if Megadeth became louder and heavier, nobody would have complained. But Countdown to Extinction is a very good record, despite being lighter than its predecessor.\nThe 2004 remixed and remastered version features demos for the tracks \"Countdown to Exctinction\", \"Symphony of Destruction\" and \"Psychotron\". In the liner notes, Mustaine claims he felt a certain energy in the studio after about a week of recording. This energy told him that this record is the big one. The demos reveal just how perfectionist they were at this stage. Friedman and Mustaine tracked their guitars through tuners to ensure everything is perfect for the final recording.\nListening to the album, one can't help to notice this clinical perfectionism seeping through each track. Instead of sterilising the record, it helped to highlight the nuances in Megadeth's often complex tracks.\nI used to listen to this album on cassette deck. My dad had a cassette of bird calls which was quickly transformed into a second generation copy of Countdown to Extinction. It made our mandatory game drives much more enjoyable for me, despite the fact that I got a hiding and gave my dad a headache.\nThe CD \u2013 now ripped to Megadeth mp3 for convenience \u2013 is in a state of pure digital perfection. Listening to it is truly awesome. Like Divine Intervention by Slayer, I can't really be objective about this record because I grew up with it. If you get a hiding for it, or if you get taken to the principal's office for a record, it automatically scores five skulls.\n\"Crown of Worms\" features lyrics written by Sean Harris of Diamond Head. Mustaine tried to write music in a classic Motorhead style to fit the lyrics. I am grateful that they included this hard to find track on the remixed and remastered version.\n\"Countdown to Extinction\" is a song about canned hunting. The track won accolades from PETA and other pussies. Canned hunting is obviously much different than frolicking around in an animal's natural habitat with a hand weapon, so in this case I support PETA's views.\n\"Ashes in Your Mouth\" has some of my favourite guitar solos of all time.\n\"Psychotron\" is one of several Megadeth tracks about comic book characters. In this case, the topic is Deathlok, the demolisher.\nThis is part of the month of Megadeth series on the Necro Files. All the posts of the series are listed below:\nCountdown to Extinction (Demo)\nSymphony of Destruction (Demo)\nPsychotron (Demo)\nDavid Ellefson: bass.\nMarty Friedman: guitar.\nNick Menza: drums.\nDave Mustaine: guitars, vocals, rehab.\nLabels: canned hunting, Dave Mustaine, heavy metal, Marty Friedman, metal, PETA, seal clubbing, thrash, thrash metal\nKaitee said...\nI decided I liked Megadeth when I was a kid because this album had an awesome cover. Symphony of Destruction was one of my favourite songs for a long time until Guitar Hero came along and butchered it, but then I saw them play live and all was forgiven.\nmantiz said...\nI gotta say Megadeth's one of the few bands that have remained true to their thrash metal roots. In fact, it was 'Tornado of Souls' that got me hooked into heavy metal in the first place.\nnice review, loved the album :)\nCarson F. Ball said...\nNice review on Countdown to Extinction! Megadeth is one of my favorite groups and this was the first album of theirs I bought back in high-school. I wish Ellefson were still in the group.\nIf you want to see my opinions on several of their albums, feel free to check out http://music.ballweb.org/artist/Megadeth.php.",

        "title": "Blaster Master",
        "raw_content": "In what I term the \"NES Preservation Era\" (currently perpetuated by pages like mine), several games have earned recognition among the proprieters of the era's pages that were passed-over during their original release. For various reasons, these games were ignored during their first advents on the NES (though it was typically because they were produced by obscure companies, or released at the same time as stellarly popular games.) There are two games in particular that have achieved this belated recognition. Blaster Master is one of them (the other is Crystalis, which will be reviewed at a later date.) Now, while I can certainly see the logic behind the arguments of those who have praised this game, I cannot simultaneously join them. I have no aversion to Blaster Master. It is a good game. However, this is a game with which I tend to accentuate the negative.\nBlaster Master is one of those games in which the plot exists only to be ignored once play begins, and, in the case of this particular plot, that is probably best. Now, I know that I have ranted and raved about stupid plots on many occasions now. However, if you ask any NES aficianado, they will concur with my debasement of this game's plot. The game begins with Jason, a common American teenager (does it seem to you that a lot of these became heroes in NES games?), tending to his frog (Fred), whereupon Fred leaps out of his little cellarium, with Jason reaching distantly behind. Fred then hops out of Jason's house (God knows how he got the door open), and into the back yard, with Jason trudging along slowly behind (apparently Fred is one of those well-conditioned Jumping Contest frogs.) Moving forth, Fred hops on top of a radioactive generator that seems to be quite at home in Jason's yard, and (rather than contracting cancer, which would be the logical result) grows to the size of roughly three men. After that, the generator disappears, and Fred hops down the hole that is left. Jason follows, and discovers a protective suit and giant otherworldly tank. Seeing no sign of Fred, Jason puts on the suit, hops in the tank, and sets out to find his pet.\nThe world before Jason is bizarre, populated primarily by what are either robotic monsters or humans in suits much like Jason's. It is upon entry into this world that the plot is forgotten, and the action takes center stage. The action in this game is interesting, divided into two interfaces throughout play. The first of these interfaces is the side-scrolling action (which one might call the overworld.) It is here that the player navigates throughout the world, trying to figure out where to go next. In this interface, it is adivsed that the player STAY IN THE TANK as much as possible, letting Jason out only to enter into the caverns, or destroy an obstacle that is set too low for the tank to hit. The enemies in this world are much more powerful than those in the caves, and cannot be easily destroyed with Jason's feeble gun.\nThe second interface, as alluded to, is what I call the \"cave interface.\" Throughout the \"overworld\", the player will notice several doors that are too small for the tank to enter. Jason can only enter these doors alone. Here, Jason's inventory is extended beyond the relatively useless gun to contain the much needed grenades. Aside from being notedly more powerful than the gun, these grenades possess a strange power afforded them by a glitch in the program. That is, once they have exploded, the grenades continue to cause damage to certain bosses when the game is paused. This does not work in all cases, but it is a fallibility best taken advantage of. Most of the caverns behind these doors are merely havens containing powerups for Jason. However, one of these caverns per level contains the \"boss\". Now, one might be wondering why a young kid looking for his frog would want to waste his time on a side trip to kill some otherworldly creature. Well, each of the bosses guards an attachment for Jason's tank that is needed to advance to the next level.\nMost of the music of this game is noticeably similar to the game's other songs. The synthesized instruments are all pretty much the same. However, the original paradigm after which the songs are modeled is quite good. Thus, the game's entire soundtrack is equally entertaining.\nI have never advanced even as far as the fourth level, and so cannot comment on the majority of the game. However, what I have seen of the game is, in truth, pretty repetitive. The action is somewhat fun, but, because the majority of the enemies are robotic, nearly all of them are gray. I am a lover of earthtones in clothing, but, in video games, they tend to be quite dulling, particularly when used to the degree that they are in this game. Also, the caverns containing the bosses tend to be winding and labyrinthian. While this has been proven to work in some games (Zelda, Crystalis, e.g.), it is not as effective in the already arduous outer world of Blaster Master. In this game with no save option, and a huge, side-scrolling world, taking forty minutes to figure out where the hell you're supposed to go in one of a smattering of caverns is nothing more than excessive and frustrating. By the third level, I began to wonder how much longer I would have to play, and the game unbecame fun.\nIf Jason had just written his congressman and had the radioactive box hauled away, none of this would have happened.\nWhy is there a sky? Isn't this supposed to be underground?\nI wish my brain could do that.\n>Return to the main page - The NES Enshrined",

        "raw_content": "A hit men movie that has fun exploring the lifestyle of these characters by mixing it with pop culture and creative and elaborate scenarios.\nPulp Fiction is known as a movie that changed the way all other crime movies would be made from then on. It\u2019s the movie of a generation, merging gangster story lines with pop culture slang. These guys aren\u2019t the Italian gangsters from the old country. They\u2019re American, and damn proud of it. They embrace American culture and make pop references to TV, music, and anything else they can think of, and they do this every chance they can get.\nPulp Fiction is probably the first movie that turned inwards and had the characters comment on other movies, breaking down the wall that separates film characters from the audience. It did all this by having its characters be part of the general audience for American entertainment, and fellow movie watchers. Many other movies followed, such as Scream, two years later, making social commentary by featuring characters today watching and talking about films from the past.\nThese pop-culture references of Pulp Fiction were just one of many fantastic qualities about the movie. The most notable and distinctive feature is known to be the dialogue, mainly because we\u2019ve never heard characters talk this way before. These guys might be on the road getting ready to kill someone, but their conversation talks about anything and everything else. They tell jokes and stories and make comments about what they\u2019ve heard and what they think they know. And at no point do they stop to talk about what they are really about to do.\nThere is a unique and creative way to how writer-director Quentin Tarantino tells his story, completely out of order, with time jumping around and the narrative getting cut up and fractured. It\u2019s a tool that makes a movie better, because you, the audience are being invited to play a game. Don\u2019t just watch the story, but put the pieces together. Figure out what came when, and how it fits in. This quality of the movie ends up giving it a sort of fun, interactive experience feel.\nThe dialogue might be the most memorable feature of the film, but the non-linear storytelling is certainly the most revolutionary. We\u2019ve seen plenty of examples before where the movie opens with a scene that will be featured again in the movie later on. It happens all the time these days, and it used to happen in the days before Pulp Fiction as well. Goodfellas, A Perfect World, Carlito\u2019s Way. These movies all came before Pulp Fiction. It\u2019s called bookending a movie, and it\u2019s really not that big a deal. But movies do it for a very specific purpose. They use this quick introduction to get the viewer interested and curious, and knowing that they will find out what it all meant later on. Pulp Fiction doesn\u2019t. There is no clue in the movie that we will ever see the characters that started off the film, again. So when we do come back to the diner and see the same setting that began the movie, we are suddenly surprised and excited because we know what\u2019s coming and can\u2019t wait to see how it comes together with everything else.\nAside from bookending the movie with the diner robbery scene, Pulp Fiction decides to explore the concept of altering the order of a story a little further. It doesn\u2019t just stay at the ends of the film, but actually reworks itself inside. It shuffles around story lines and offers subtle clues to give us, the audience, an opportunity to play detective and uncover just how it\u2019s all meant to work. Since Pulp Fiction, there have been countless exercises in taking this notion further, often to a point where an entire movie relies on the gimmick. Most of the time, we end up getting a cheap attempt to cash in on Pulp Fiction\u2019s style. Memento is a rare example of a movie that does it right. That film has a unique narrative approach of telling it\u2019s story backwards, which was completely inspired by Pulp Fiction, using it as a spring board to launch into something else creative and new.\nBut the thing that\u2019s so beautiful about Pulp Fiction is that the fractured narrative, like the dialogue and pop culture references, are just one of a whole slate of movie elements that make this movie work. It\u2019s a movie where there are no superheroes and everybody has real problems to deal with. If you\u2019re Bruce Willis\u2019 character, Butch, for example, you might have taken a bribe from a bookie, killed a man in a boxing match, and gone to hide in a motel room on the run, but you still have to deal with forgetting your watch at your apartment. Realistic problems. Similarly for Jules and Vincent, our two hit men, their big problem is caused by what is literally a bump in the road. How many times have you been in the passenger seat of a moving car, trying to write something, and the car hits a bump? Suddenly your writing doesn\u2019t look so good. Tarantino took that simple idea just a little further by applying it to the world of hit men. Instead of pens, they are holding guns. Watch what happens when the car hits a bump.\nThe movie features three main stories, all of them intertwining with each other. And it opens outside of those stories with two characters that seem to have nothing to do with any of the rest of it. Of course that\u2019s not the truth, as we see the two characters turn up again for a major part in the end of the film. These characters are Ring (Tim Roth) and Yolanda (Amanda Plummer), playing two restaurant robbers sitting in the booth of a diner. Ring tells the story of a man who held up a bank teller with only a telephone and someone important to the teller, on the other end of the line. After the story, he and Yolanda stand up with their guns and start screaming orders, holding the place up. The screen freezes and the loud, heart-pumping music that has now become iconic with this movie begins.\nSuddenly we\u2019re on a black screen and the huge letters of the title rise up into the air. The style of these letters is bright, loud, and intentionally campy and over the top. It\u2019s the same style used in From Dusk Till Dawn, which was also written by Tarantino, and it is meant to announce this movie as something big, exciting, and very memorable.\nThis is actually just one of many ways that Tarantino tries to let us know or make us fully aware of how great his movie is. Another one happened in that diner scene just before this. Ring leaned in close to Yolanda as they spoke of robberies, and he said, \u201ceverybody always robs banks. Nobody ever robs restaurants.\u201d The real restaurant robbery with these two characters doesn\u2019t happen until the end of this movie, and so while we know that Ring is right and that we haven\u2019t seen a restaurant robbery on film before, we also don\u2019t get to appreciate why that is such a cool idea until much later on. There are, however, two other subtle lines of dialogue about how great this movie is, that come after the fact, and are therefore already backed up and supported by the time the audience hears them.\nThe first of these comes after Butch returns home to his girlfriend Fabian. He has just come from killing a hit man, confronting the crime boss he betrayed, and being kidnapped by two rapists who have a pet gimp. Butch says to Fabian upon seeing her, \u201cThis has been without doubt the strangest fucking day of my life.\u201d And we know exactly what he\u2019s talking about because we\u2019ve seen every moment of it.\nAnd then there\u2019s Samuel L. Jackson\u2019s Jules, sitting at the diner at the end, with Ring holding a gun in his face. Jules, refuses to hand over a suitcase, telling Ring, \u201cI\u2019ve been through too much shit today over this suitcase to just hand it over.\u201d And again, we know exactly what he\u2019s talking about because we\u2019ve been there with him the whole time.\nThere\u2019s probably a line somewhere in there too about the watch that got left behind with Butch saying something to Fabian, the girl he is with, like, \u201cThis watch has been through too much over the years to just leave it at my apartment.\u201d After all, that watch gets a bigger back story, as told by Christopher Walken to a young Butch in flashback, than most characters get in most feature films.\nVincent Vega, the John Travolta character, is the other hit man who travels alongside Jules, and he\u2019s also got a story of his own. His story, about taking out the boss\u2019 wife for an evening of entertainment, is but one of the three stories of the film. Butch\u2019s story about the boxing match and events that unfold as a result of it, make the second story. And then there\u2019s the third story of Jules and Vincent together, which is really Jules\u2019 story with Vincent as just a supporting player. That\u2019s pretty clear from the way Jules holds up the men who robbed his boss while Vincent stands out of focus somewhere in the background. Another way we can tell that the Jules and Vincent story is really the story that features Jules as the main character, is from the way that they go to see Jules\u2019s friend, for help cleaning up their mess. Jules leads Vincent to this house and even makes the call to Marcellus to get a man named the Wolf to come and help them. But there\u2019s even a third reason why this is Jules\u2019 story, and it\u2019s the most substantial reason of all. At the end of the movie, Jules is the one who confronts Ring at the diner, while Vincent is off using the bathroom somewhere in another part of the restaurant.\nEach of the three stories has an introduction that in no way indicates where the story will be going. Sometimes it\u2019s as simple as Vincent and Jules riding around in a car making small talk about fast food names in other countries. Other times, the story ends up coming back to where the introduction started it off, but the path that caused the character to return there was completely unpredictable. Such is the case with the Vincent Vega-Mia Wallace story. The story begins at a sort of drug playpen, which is the apartment of dealer Eric Stolz\u2019s. While the place is certainly trippy, it in no way gives clues that we will be headed to a place as out there as Jack Rabbit Slims. This Vincent Vega plot line will be an entirely drug induced story and begins at the dealers house with him presenting Vega with all different sorts of heroin. As he gets jazzed up about his presentation, he ends up talking exactly like writer-director Tarantino does, \u201cnow there\u2019s nothing wrong with these two, but this one\u2026\u201d\nThe storyline that opens at this drug dealer\u2019s house starts off with piercings and heroin and a discussion of the reasons why someone might get their tongue pierced. The reason offered is in order to increase the sensations and feelings of oral sex. These are clues that this will be a story all about feelings and sensation and exploring the id. It\u2019s about mindlessly letting go. On his way out, Vega shoots up heroin and then goes for a drive. Tarantino presents the drive as more like a dream, or the most relaxing experience of cruising around the streets in a car as imaginable. We hear soothing music that includes the sounds of rolling waves and we watch, as Vincent is half-driving, half-falling asleep.\nThis is the only the beginning of how drugs will fit into the story. Vincent arrives at MIAs where she\u2019s snorting cocaine while he makes himself a drink. Son of a Preacher Man plays in the background. This song represents the idea of having a moral upbringing and still being corruptible. In the case of Mia, she is not the wife of a crime boss, already starting out corrupted by snorting cocaine, but it is Vega\u2019s heroin that brings her to a whole new level. Between the heroin Vega uses in the car, Mia\u2019s snorting cocaine in the house, and now Vincent making himself a drink, the first portion of this storyline is filled with a variety of drugs. And it\u2019s all getting us ready for what is to come.\nThe two characters arrive at Jack Rabbit Slim\u2019s Diner and suddenly we are in the world of a restaurant, disguised as the ultimate hallucination trip. Inside the restaurant, they find themselves eating in a car, looking at a wait staff that includes Marilyn Monroe and Buddy Holly, and performing a dance on stage that\u2019s good enough to win first place. The two characters fit right in with the mellow vibe of the place as Vega rolls a joint at the table, Mia snorts cocaine in the bathroom, and they sit in the car having relaxing conversations that are really about nothing at all. The car that they are sitting in is clearly meant to be symbolic of the spot where Vincent first shot up heroin earlier.\nSimilar to the opening of the drug story at Eric Stolz\u2019s apartment, and the way you can\u2019t tell from that where the story will be going or that a place like Jack Rabbit Slims might even exist, the other stories also lead to unexpected surprises. When Butch makes the deal to throw the fight, it seems that he would have to be crazy to actually win it, and then to kill the guy he\u2019s fighting, as well. I like how Tarantino never shows us the fight, not even for a second, much like how in Reservoir Dogs he never showed us the robbery, only the aftermath.\nEven if you do see Butch winning the fight coming, (there are, after all only two choices, he either wins or he loses), there\u2019s no way to predict that the story will end up inside the basement of a couple of rapists. These guys find both Butch and the boss he made the deal with, Marcellus Wallace, then tie them up, unleash a guy dressed in leather known as the gimp on them, and then proceed to rape them. That sort of thing is the very definition of unpredictable.\nAnd Tarantino uses the place not to show us how crazy a scenario he can come up with, but to give his two archenemies a situation where they might have to put aside their differences and work together to escape. Butch has the chance to leave, and leave his enemy behind, but he doesn\u2019t. It\u2019s the classic archetype situation where two archenemies team up, or are really friends. Tarantino loves comic books (he wrote all of the Silver Surfer dialogue for Crimson Tide), and he knew exactly what he was doing here.\nAnd the moment of the decision to go back for Marcellus is handled with careful precision. Butch has the door opened, ready to leave, and he freezes. He thinks for a moment, then turns around and walks back inside. And once he reenters the store, Tarantino has some more fun with the choices he\u2019s about to make.\nButch gets to choose his weapon. He looks over all the different tools, thinking of ideas, and even tries some of them out. He tries a hammer, a baseball bat, a chainsaw, and then finds a samurai sword. This choosing of weapons is just like a video game. Like a Legend of Zelda kind of thing where you go into a store and can buy whatever weapon you want. And the samurai sword that Butch eventually settles on has meaning too. Samurai warriors have a code. They weren\u2019t afraid of death and they certainly weren\u2019t all about saving themselves. By going back into the store to save his enemy, Butch is demonstrating samurai values, and so the sword makes perfect sense.\nSo Butch goes back down to the basement and slices through the first rapist as the man spins around. The other rapist moves away from Wallace, who stands up and walks over behind Butch where he picks up a gun. And then Wallace speaks, saying \u201cstep aside, Butch,\u201d as if the two of them are old friends.\nNow this whole thing, this bizarre rapist dungeon, this coming face to face with his archenemy, the big boss, is all because of a watch. The pursuit of the watch led Butch back to his apartment where he ran into and killed Vincent, and then on the street he ran into Marcellus (almost like two guardians in a video game.)\nThe watch is setup in an earlier Christopher Walken flashback scene from Butch\u2019s childhood. It\u2019s the scene that kicks off the Butch story so that we fade out on the face of kid Butch and then fade back in onto Bruce Willis as the Butch of today. When he presents the watch in the flashback, Walken goes into a long-winded monologue about the history of the watch. Tarantino has a little thing for putting Walken in only one scene and giving him a huge monologue to Deliver in that scene. Walken had only one scene in True Romance, which Tarantino wrote, and it was the greatest scene in the movie. While casting Walken in that True Romance role probably had more to do with the film\u2019s director, Tony Scott than with Tarantino, Walken certainly handled Tarantino\u2019s dialogue brilliantly in that movie to the point where Tarantino knew he would do justice to the watch scene in Pulp Fiction.\nWalken tells his watch story about how it traveled throughout the army with different men who had to hide it so enemies wouldn\u2019t take it away, and the story is so elaborate that it could make for a movie in itself. The same goes for many other moments throughout this movie. The story about the guy who gave Mia Wallace a foot massage and then got thrown through a plate glass window. Or the story Mia tells Vincent about the show she was going to be on with five foxy women hit men. There\u2019s a black one, a Chinese one, and so forth, and each one has a specialty. Tarantino liked that idea so much that he took some form of it and made it into a whole other movie with Kill Bill. Those female hit men have code names and everything.\nThe story of that premise for a T.V. show that Mia tells Vincent about, goes right along with some of the other dialogue happening in this story. The scene of Vincent and Mia out on a date is filled with Seinfeld like observations that the characters share with each other as if they\u2019re good friends. They talk about uncomfortable silences, about coming back from the bathroom and having your food there waiting for you, and in one moment Vincent asks Mia to promise she won\u2019t get offended if he asks her something and she talks of how she can\u2019t promise that because she has no idea what he\u2019s going to ask and her natural reaction might be to get offended. These are fairly simple observations, and that\u2019s the point. They are cool and calm thoughts that we\u2019ve all had before.\nDialogue like this is all over the movie. It\u2019s in Butch\u2019s story, with the initial monologue Delivered by Marcellus Wallace to Butch about pride fucking with you. And what\u2019s funny about that is that it is one of the two biggest monologues of the movie and both are aimed at Butch as he sits there being lectured. The other one is the Walken watch monologue. What is this saying about the Butch character? Considering that he never cuts the speaker off or interjects in any way, at any time, it is certainly saying that Butch is the kind of guy who probably has a lot of rage and has been keeping it all inside. He\u2019s been lectured at ever since he was a kid and despite his boxing success, it\u2019s still going on today in the exact same disrespectful kind of way. It\u2019s at this time, as he sits here listening to Wallace (while Tarantino gives a shot that shows the back of Wallace\u2019s head and Butch\u2019s reaction as he listens,) that Butch is really thinking about what he will do. He\u2019s realizing here that he has to start standing up for himself. And so he doesn\u2019t say fuck pride like Marcellus tells him to, but he says fuck Marcellus, and ends up betting on himself, screwing Marcellus, killing his opponent, and walking off a rich man.\nBetween the monologues and the witty conversations, Tarantino\u2019s most note-worthy accomplishment with this movie is his rich and honest dialogue. And the story that lays it on the thickest is the first story. The hit men story. Now, the way this story works is we see the first half of it, leave it to go to the other stories (the date with Mia and the Butch boxing story), and then reconnect with it for the final portion of the film.\nBut there are also some key segments interspersed throughout the film where Vincent shows up somewhere wearing a certain outfit or being in the background while something else is happening, and these moments help us keep track of where they might fall in the narrative storyline. They are like markers. So, for example, Vincent Vega dies in the Butch story. That\u2019s the end of the line for Vincent which means any time we see him after this, it is a scene that really came before it in the storyline. When Vincent walks into a bar dressed in a volleyball t-shirt, at the start of the Butch story, we can tell by this clothing that it\u2019s because he just left the diner, where he went after Jimmy\u2019s house. Of course going to Jimmy\u2019s house and leaving that diner don\u2019t happen until the end of the movie. So first we see him in the clothes, then later on we see how he got the clothes.\nThe walking in with the volleyball shirt is actually like an intermission scene between the two halves of the movie, and specifically between two chapters. It comes right at the end of the first part of the hit man story, (after they accidentally shoot Marvin in their car), and it comes right at the start of the Mia Wallace date story. That works, because as it happens, Vincent is in all three stories. He and Jules are the stars of the hit man story, then he and Mia are the stars of their date story, and finally, he is killed in the middle of the Butch story. Tarantino wrote this movie to be like a novel of three different short stories where the same characters pop into each story, only sometimes a main character in one story would just be in the background of another story.\nThe hit man story is the one, which opens the movie, but unlike a James Bond film or any other movie that tries to use an action introduction to open the movie and throw us right into the world of the main character, Pulp Fiction disguises that it\u2019s main characters are. It does open with the restaurant robbery, which gives us a little taste of the themes of the movie and what\u2019s to come, but when we meet Vincent and Jules in their car, shortly after that, they are talking about every subject they can think of besides doing a job. They talk about pot, Amsterdam (where Tarantino was when he wrote most of this movie), the differences between Europe and America, the metric system. All kinds of little remarks that flow into each other. And we get to hear it all before we realize we are listening to a conversation between two hit men.\nWhen they arrive at the sight of their job, they start talking about Marcellus\u2019 wife, Mia, and this guy who gave her a foot massage and got thrown through a plate glass window as a result. The conversation is humorous because we know that Vincent will be taking Mia out in the near future. So this window story is a sort of setup for what could end up happening to Vincent if there\u2019s a problem. And of course, there is a problem when Mia overdoses on drugs that were in Vincent\u2019s pocket.\nVincent is in sheer panic as he speeds off to dealer Eric Stolz\u2019s house, and we know why he\u2019s in such a panic because we know that story about the foot massage. We know the guy who went through the window now has a speech impediment as a result. And we can just imagine what is going on in Vincent\u2019s head, as he crashes his car into Stoltz\u2019s house, trying to rush her to somewhere where she can possibly be saved.\nVincent and Jules stand in the hallway talking about that story of the guy who crossed the line with Marcellus\u2019 wife and what happened to him, and they check their watches, realize that they still have time, and walk down to the other end of the hallway to continue their conversation. The camera stays right at the door and just turns to watch them at the end of the hall and listen in on their conversation. And the two of them argue two different points. Jules is arguing that it was messed up of Marcellus to throw a guy through a window, and Vincent is arguing that a foot massage can be very sexual. Neither one of these guys is in hit man, ready-to-kill somebody mode, and that\u2019s part of what\u2019s so funny about it.\nAnd then the boys go in and find the young guys who ripped off Marcellus Wallace. The dialogue in this scene is threatening and funny. You can tell the Jules needed to have that foot massage argument just to get worked up enough to be ready for this. He spouts lines like, \u201cDoes Marcellus Wallace look like a bitch?\u201d In that shouting, pissed off way, that only Sam Jackson can Deliver lines. Another one is, \u201cWhat ain\u2019t no country I\u2019ve heard of. Do they speak English in what?\u201d\nJules is the star of this story, as made evident by the amount of time Vincent spends off screen while the two of them hold up these guys. While Jules Delivers preachy-like monologues, even quoting text from the Bible, Vincent is somewhere in the back looking through cupboards. When we reconvene with this story later on down the road (at the end of the movie), Jules is the one in a heated conversation with Ring, while Vincent is again in the background of the restaurant somewhere, this time sitting on a toilet in the bathroom.\nSo the hit man story is really Jules\u2019 story, the date story is Vincent\u2019s, and the boxing match story belongs to Butch. That\u2019s how the movie is divided up. And Vincent is really the character that appears in the other people\u2019s stories the most, although Marcellus\u2019 name certainly comes up a lot in each one.\nAs far as Vincent on the toilet in the hit man story, he actually spends a lot of time on the toilet throughout the film. And there\u2019s a reason for that. In each of the three stories, he has a toilet scene. In the boxing story, he\u2019s on the toilet while Butch goes through the apartment. When Vincent stands up and leaves the bathroom, he gets shot. In the Mia Wallace date story, Vincent goes off to use the bathroom when they get to her place while Mia goes in his jacket and snorts heroin (which she thinks is cocaine.) And then, of course, there\u2019s the hit man story with Vincent on the toilet at the restaurant while Jules is front and center confronting the robbers. And even when it\u2019s not Vincent who is using the bathroom, you better believe it\u2019s him who mentions it. In the scene where he and Jules hold up the guys in the apartment, one of the guys runs out firing at them from another room and Vincent asks the guys still alive after that, \u201cwhy didn\u2019t you tell us there was someone in the bathroom?\u201d This is Jules\u2019 story and a story where Vincent says very little, but if there\u2019s a line of dialogue that mentions a bathroom in it, that line will definitely be coming from him.\nWhy? What does all of this bathroom stuff mean? It\u2019s simple. Vincent is a guy who loves the bathroom. He\u2019s a guy who is easily uncomfortable, and sneaking off to the bathroom is his technique for getting away from it all. It\u2019s how he takes a break. At Mia\u2019s place, Vincent spends so much time in they\u2019re that by the time he gets out, the music isn\u2019t even playing anymore. That\u2019s why in every bathroom scene he\u2019s in, he is always sitting. He doesn\u2019t stand because the toilet is his throne. There is absolute symbolism here, although Tarantino doesn\u2019t bang you over the head with it, and many viewers who see this movie will come away not even remembering that Vincent had three different bathroom scenes.\nThere\u2019s also a disrespect factor involved with Vincent. He, or other characters he comes across, will often show very little respect to each other, if any at all. Vincent and Butch are disrespectful to each other and they don\u2019t even know each other. \u201cDon\u2019t call me friend.\u201d And Vincent isn\u2019t much better to Jules, sitting on the toilet reading a magazine while his Buddy sits at a table in the restaurant all by himself, waiting for Vincent to get back.\nThe disrespect characters in this world give each other is often very funny, but you have to be paying attention to pick up on it. Just listen to the way Harvey Keitel\u2019s character, the Wolf, introduces himself to Jimmy. \u201cYou must be Jimmy. I\u2019m Mr. Wolf.\u201d In other words, \u201cI\u2019m gonna call you by your first name, but don\u2019t even think about calling me by mine.\u201d\nMr. Wolf views Jimmy as a pushover when he first meets him. Either this is the way The Wolf views everybody before getting to know them, or it\u2019s because Jimmy is housing these two jackasses who just shot a guy in the head while he was in their car. Either way, as the interactions between the two of them go on, Mr. Wolf starts to warm up to Jimmy. Especially when Jimmy (played by Tarantino himself), comes to the Wolf with a problem about the linens they are using. All of a sudden the Wolf realizes this guy has some balls. Instead of linens, they start talking about oak. Instead of calling him Mr. Wolf, the man now tells Jimmy to call him Winston. And when the Wolf sprays down the two hit men with a hose a little bit later, it is Jimmy who stands right beside him cracking jokes about how idiotic these two look.\nMr. Wolf is a character that is meant to be the epitome of cool. He\u2019s one of those characters that we get to hear about before we even meet him, with Jules and Marcellus on the phone with each other talking about him. \u201cI\u2019m sending the Wolf. You feel better now?\u201d Marcellus asks him. \u201cShit,\u201d Jules responds, \u201cThat was all you had to say.\u201d\nAnd then we meet the Wolf, taking the call from Marcellus, Delivering some great dialogue into the phone before hanging up. \u201cIt\u2019s thirty minutes away,\u201d he says. \u201cI\u2019ll be there in ten.\u201d This guy is absolutely Mr. Cool, but Tarantino is smart enough not to make everything too easy for him. He wants us to see that this guy knows how to handle some bumps in the road. There\u2019s Vincent asking him for a \u201cplease.\u201d Then there\u2019s Jimmy complaining about the linens. And then there are the two boys in the car having to roam around picking up pieces of brain. And throughout it all, The Wolf never loses his cool.\nI\u2019ve always wondered whether Mr. Wolf is really the same character as Mr. White from Reservoir Dogs. The same actor plays them both. All of the names associated with him start with a W, from Wolf to White to Winston. And this guy Wolf sends the boys off to Monster Joe\u2019s Truck and Toe, claiming that Joe is an old Buddy of his. Now we never see Joe, but doesn\u2019t it seem likely that Joe just might be the big boss Joe who puts the whole robbery together in Reservoir Dogs? On top of all this, it is well known in the Tarantino-verse that the Michael Madsen Reservoir Dogs character, Vic Vega, is a actually brother with the Pulp Fiction character, Vincent Vega. So clearly all of these characters exist in the same world. And look at how many of them are in both films. Steve Buscemi plays a waiter in Pulp Fiction. Tim Roth plays the guy who holds up the restaurant. Are these all the same characters, only long before they ever went to work for Joe and pull off the job in Dogs? Did Tim Roth\u2019s character, Ring, give up on restaurant robbing after his enlightenment run-in with Jules and become a cop?\nThe suitcase in the hit man story is also a key element in this film. Just like the way we never saw the robbery in Reservoir Dogs, we never see what\u2019s inside the suitcase in Pulp Fiction. It is clearly meant to be a McGuffin, which means something we don\u2019t need to know the answer to, but only to know that everybody wants it. The glowing light when it opens is an homage to Kiss Me Deadly, the Mike Hammer film noir.\nThe Vincent-Mia date is also symbolic and is meant to represent a single, huge high. He starts at the dealer\u2019s place, shoots up, and then ends back at the dealer\u2019s place. Who knows if he ever really went anywhere at all, or if this was all just a huge hallucinogenic trip. After all, Jack Rabbit Slims is not a place you would expect to find in reality. And it\u2019s not Mia who is the expert on the place, but Vincent, even though it is Mia who suggests going there. That\u2019s because it is Vincent\u2019s fantasy, not Mia\u2019s. And then there\u2019s also the way that the high goes from extremely great (winning first place in a dance contest), to really low, watching your bosses wife overdose on drugs that were in your pocket, and knowing the story of what happens to you if you mess with his wife.\nThe greatest filmed sequence in the movie comes when Butch goes back to his apartment for that watch and suddenly notices a giant assault rifle with a silencer sitting on the counter. Tarantino carefully structures every shot here to let you know exactly what the character is thinking and even to think the same thing we. The shot starts with Butch suddenly freezing in place with his eyes fixed on something. Then the camera pulls back to show us what he\u2019s staring at. We see the huge gun resting on his counter. He picks it up, holds it, tries it out, and then we hear the sound of a flushing toilet. Butch\u2019s head turns to the sound with an expression of disbelief on his face, as if to say, \u201cThere\u2019s no fucking way that there\u2019s a hit man in my bathroom right now who was sent here to kill me, and just happened to leave his gun right here on my counter.\u201d Then we zoom into the door where the flush sound is coming from. The anticipation is now making our heart\u2019s pound. And then the door opens and he fires. Those careful shots, to reveal a step-by-step depiction of what Butch was realizing, were just perfect.\nButch now leaves his apartment and I will never forget what I was thinking the first time I saw this movie. I was thinking Jules was just around the corner. He was planning to pop out from behind something and get Butch. Or at the very least, he was waiting in the car for Vincent and was going to see Butch. But he never appeared. Later on in the movie, Tarantino answered the question of why, when the narrative cut back in time to show Jules and Vincent sitting at a restaurant, and Jules announcing his resignation. The way Tarantino gave us that answer later on, to why Jules was not there in the courtyard, was kind of like a Paul Harvey, The Rest of the Story situation. It was a \u201chere\u2019s what you didn\u2019t see earlier,\u201d kind of scenario. We saw the first half of the hit man story. We saw the stuff after the hit man story, when Vincent got killed. And now, at the end of the movie, we got the second half of the hit man story. And that second half cleared a lot of things up (including the volleyball t-shirts).\nIn that end of the movie diner scene, Jules and Vincent sit across from each other at a table as Jules goes off on a rant about why is giving the job up. We, the audience, cannot recognize this as the same diner from the opening Tim Roth robbery scene, because in that early scene Tarantino never showed us the diner beyond their booth. It was all-strategic.\nNow, sitting across from Vincent, Jules drops one pop-culture reference after another. There\u2019s Arnold, the pig from the TV show Green Acres. There\u2019s Kane from the TV show Kung Fu. And when he gets into a standoff with gunmen, Jules even brings up The Fonz from Happy Days. It\u2019s so much, that at some point you have to ask yourself why Jules? Why is it all coming from the same character\u2019s mouth and coming in the same scene? It\u2019s because in this moment, Tarantino wants us to relate to the Jules character more than any other. He wants us to find some connection with this character through TV shows and say to ourselves, \u201cthis guy isn\u2019t that different from us. He used to watch the same exact T.V. shows that we used to watch.\u201d\nAnd why is it so important that we relate to Jules here? Because he is the character who walks away from it all unscathed. He\u2019s the guy who makes the smart decision. Vincent ends up dead. Before we knew that was his fate, we were right there with him, relating to him every step of the way. Tarantino even brought us into the bathroom with him at Mia\u2019s house just to listen to him talk to himself, giving himself a sort of pep talk in the mirror. But now he\u2019s dead, and Jules is the only one we have left.\nWhen it was the Butch story, we were meant to relate to him as well. That\u2019s what all of those great tracking, point-of-view shots were all about. There was the gun on the counter and then there was another weapon tracking shot where we followed his eyes as he spotted the samurai sword hanging in the store. We relate to Jules through T.V. shows just like we related to Butch through his seeing different weapons, and through Vincent from spending so much time in the bathroom with him.\nAnd all three characters end up being heroes of their own story. All three end up saving someone. In the Vincent story, he saves Mia from her overdose. He actually resuscitates her and brings her back from the dead. The needle through the heart scene is unforgettable. In the Butch scene, he goes back and saves Marcellus from the two rapists. And in the Jules scene, our hero ends up saving Ring, because otherwise he would have had to kill him. \u201cI\u2019m buying something with this money, Ring. I\u2019m buying your life.\u201d That\u2019s the trickiest saving of them all, and certainly the most unselfish. For that reason, Tarantino saves it for last.\nThe diner scene ends with our hit men tucking their guns into their pants and walking out. They wear their volleyball t-shirts and earlier in the movie we saw the scene that would follow this one chronologically when they walk into the bar wearing the t-shirts. That scene was the beginning of the boxing story (the bar was the meeting place for Butch and Marcellus.) Them leaving the diner are the ends of the hit man story. So the bar scene comes in between those two stories, but it is also a part of the third story, the Vincent and Mia story. That\u2019s because it has Vincent go up to the bar and talk to the bartender and talk about how he will be taking Mia out. After that we get the date. And after the date story, we go back to Butch. So the volleyball t-shirt bar scene is the single scene that really connects all three stories.\nPulp Fiction is a true work of art. It tells three crafty stories, all infused with rapid-fire, witty dialogue. Then it has the ambitious creativity to break the pieces up and then shuffle them all around so that we can piece together their order as we watch the film. And in the process, mixed in there throughout, Tarantino gets in everything he could want, from the watch story monologue to a story that keeps coming up again about Marcellus throwing a guy through a window. First Vincent and Jules discuss it in the hit man story and then Vincent brings it up to Mia in the date story. Tarantino has created such a universe here that not only do the same characters appear in different stories, but also the same legends get retold in them.\nThis movie is so carefully constructed that it takes time out to examine the smallest details about its characters without dwelling on these details at all. There\u2019s Vincent\u2019s fondness for sitting on the toilet, Jules\u2019 fondness for making T.V. show references, and Butch as a guy looked down on by the world, who knows he wants to use a weapon, but can\u2019t decide which one. Every action or decision a character makes has a reason behind it. For example, when Zed (Peter Green) rings the doorbell to the rapists store, there\u2019s a reason why he\u2019s ringing the bell instead of just opening the door. He has the key. We see him put it in the lock to let him in. But he rings the bell before doing so just to announce himself. To make a big entrance. This is the guy who walks around with a giant Z on his keychain. He\u2019s also the guy who uses Eeny-Meeny-Miny-Moe, a child\u2019s game, to decide which person to rape first. He\u2019s a child. This is the weird kind of shit that Tarantino has figured out. Even a character\u2019s key chain makes a difference.\nPulp Fiction is Tarantino going all out. Reservoir Dogs was a warm-up exercise and a damn good one, but this movie is he pulling out all the stops. He mixes humor with violence and brutality. And every one of the main characters has both sides to his personality. Every character is brutal and every character is also funny.\nThere\u2019s also the terrific soundtrack, which is just as brilliant as the rest of the movie. The \u201cGirl You\u2019ll Be A Woman Soon,\u201d sequence in particular is so relevant to what is taking place before our eyes with Mia feeling almost like a child. Her being out with Vincent is like being out with her father\u2019s friend and wanting to be taken seriously.\nOne thing that I will always appreciate about American audiences is that we embraced this movie. There are so many ways that this movie could have slipped through the cracks as a weird film that included rapists, heads being blown off in a car, and massive drug overdoses. And yet American audiences were able to get past all of that and concentrate on the characters and dialogue and way the story pieces all fit together. It didn\u2019t even take a cult following to bring this movie to everybody\u2019s attention and make it universally hailed. This movie was recognized for its greatness when it was fresh out of the gate. We knew it was something special.",

        "raw_content": "After six years as Summer Conductor of the North Shore Chamber Orchestra, Anatol Lysenka was appointed Principal Conductor by the Board of the North Shore Chamber Orchestra in 2010.\nHe was born in Belarus, formerly a part of the Soviet Union. He earned his first Master\u2019s Degree in conducting at the Belarusian Conservatory of Music. In 1985 he received his second Master\u2019s Degree in Opera-Symphony conducting at the Moscow State Conservatory. Mr. Lysenkal was awarded first prize for Symphony Orchestra Conducting in the Belarus Republic Contest in 1987.\nMr. Lysenka has participated in a number of major international and Belarusian festivals including the Spring Festival of Music, Belarusian Musical Autumn, Revival of Belarusian Chorus, and Music for Youth (where he did the world premier of the Wagner Symphony #3). He has conducted numerous orchestras in Eastern Europe.\nSince coming to the U.S. in 2000, Maestro Lysenka has conducted a number of Symphony Orchestras in Illinois. In 2005 he founded the Tutti Chamber Orchestra located in Chicago. With American Music Festivals, Mr. Lysenka has guest conducted the Lincolnwood Chamber Orchestra, Community Players Orchestra, and the Glenview Symphony. His orchestral arrangement of Shostakovich\u2019s Prelude and Fugue #24 was premiered with the Glenview Symphony (2003), and subsequently performed by the Northwestern University Symphony Orchestra. Mr. Lysenka has provided valuable outreach for American Music Festivals into the Russian and Belarusian communities in the Chicago area.\nMr. Lysenka has been widely recognized for his orchestral arrangements. Few conductors possess the level of advanced knowledge and expertise that\nhe has in interpreting and performing the complex music of Shostakovich and other works by great 20th century Soviet and contemporary Belarusian composers. Many of these compositions are primarily based on Russian and Jewish folk music, and the history and traditions that are the inspiration for Belarusian music and art. Mr Lysenka strives to share his native culture through performances and adaptations of these works.\nN. Lysenka is a native of Belarus, where she began studying the mandolin and piano at the age of 6. As a mandolinist, she graduated from the Special School of Music for Gifted Children affiliated with the Belarusian State Conservatory of Music, receiving her Bachelor's degree in 1981. She earned her Master's Degree in Mandolin Performance, Conducting and Pedagogy in 1987, followed by her Doctorate in Conducting in 1996, both from the Belarusian State Conservatory of Music in Minsk.\nIn 1987, Natallia started working for Belarusian college of Music and Arts. She had supervised the orchestral department and taught classes of the mandolin, conducting, and arrangement. She had been the conductor of the Russian folk orchestra in the college and participated in the teacher's orchestra as a mandolinist.\nNatallia had assisted in publications of educational programs for the Belarusian College.\nDuring 1996-2002 Natallia had been part-time professor of conducting at Belarusian Conservatory. Nowadays, her students are conductors of Russian and Belarusian folk orchestras. She has lived in the USA since July of 2002.\nHarvey Treger, who founded the orchestra in 1980, was an innovator and creative organizer. Professor of Social Work and Criminal Justice from the University of Illinois, Chicago, he had an international reputation for his pioneer work, research and publications in Police Social Work.\nHe designed, organized and directed a Police-Social Work Demonstration-Research Project, a model for university-community cooperation. By placing social workers and graduate students in police departments, social assessments and early intervention services were provided to misdemeanant juveniles and adult non-violent offenders in crisis with social and emotional problems who came to the attention of the police. This award-winning program has added a new specialty in social work practice - \"Police Social Work\" It is now in 57 police departments in Illinois, in communities throughout the nation, and in Europe.\nProfessor Treger turned his lifelong hobby of playing the cello and love of music into building the North Shore Chamber Orchestra, which provides opportunity and enrichment for many. He passed away on August 17, 2016,after organizing, managing, guiding and promoting the orchestra for 35 seasons.\nAlexander Zintchenko \u2013 Solo Pianist\nAlexander Zintchenko was born in Debaltsevo, Ukraine, in 1958. He began his formal piano studies at the age of seven. Already during his studies at the Artyomovsk Musical College, he impressed his audiences. After winning the National piano competition in Kiev at age 17, he studied at the Kiev Tchaikovsky Conservatory and then the (then) Leningrad Rimsky-Korsakov Conservatory, a student of Tatyana Kravchenko. In this time Zintchenko was a featured soloist with some of the most widely known symphonic orchestras of the former Soviet Union, including the Leningrad Symphonic. During that period, his repertoire included the concertos of Mozart, Beethoven, Brahms, Rachmaninoff, Ravel, Gershwin, among others.\nMeanwhile, he also was teaching. Upon completing his post-doctoral courses, Mr. Zintchenko was the Chair of the Piano Department at the Slavyansk Pedagogical University in Ukraine from 1987 to 1991. After relocating to Poland in 1991, he continued his teaching and toured extensively in Poland and elsewhere in the eastern bloc. He also recorded on Polish National radio and television, and performed collaboratively in chamber music, including with singers.\nBeginning in 1995, A. Zintchenko has lived in Chicago where he continued his concert career. He has performed in locations such as the Chicago Cultural Center, the Irish-American Center, Regenstein Recital Hall at Northwestern University and Fulton Recital Hall at the University of Chicago. He continued to teach piano as a private instructor while collaborating with students at Northwestern University and the University of Chicago. In the 2001-2007 period his concert activities expanded notably to Germany and recently especially France, Belgium and Denmark and also in repertoire\u2014Debussy, Ravel, Prokofiev, and all the concertos of Rachmaninoff.\nSince 2007, Professor A. Zintchenko has been a faculty member of the De Paul University School of Music. The wide variety of programs he participates in there includes Georgian and French music festivals at the De Paul University both as a solo performer and in a piano duo with the famous pianist, Professor Eteri Andjaparidze. At the end of April Dr. Zintchenko presented Three Last Sonatas by Beethoven.\nCurrently Alexander is collaborating with the Harper College, as well as with Lake County College. In addition, he is an Associate Organist in the St. Marcelline Catholic Church in Schaumburg.\nZintchenko has released 24 Preludes by Rachmaninoff; 4 Ballads and 4 Polonaises by Chopin; The Second Concerto by Rachmaninoff; and several other recordings.\nDr. Zintchenko is a favorite of the North Shore Chamber Orchestra, having previously performed the Arensky Fantasy on Russian Themes and concertos of Schumann, Grieg, Rachmaninoff and Tchaikovsky. We are delighted to have such a distinguished artist perform with us again.",

        "raw_content": "Strength is admired when it is controlled and used to provide good things for people, business, transportation, and daily functions. When we reach for a hammer, we expect the head to be hard and durable. Whenever we board anything designed to transport us, we are confident that the frame and body of that vehicle has been inspected and proven to be safe because of its strength to handle the speed, surroundings, and weight it is designed to do. When a customer buys a diamond, they fully expect it to be \u201cthe real thing\u201d and able to last for a lifetime due to the density and hardness of the stone.\nStrength of resolve is admired in men and women of honor. That deep-rooted tenacity and determination takes them to great heights. The will, fortitude, and sheer boldness overcomes difficulties that cause others to quit.\nThat same focus and passionate fierceness to accomplish a task at all costs is terrifying when it appears in a terrorist, maniac, or contemptible dictator. The attributes that cause some to be valiant can also terrorize and create great devastation. When evil is at the core of the individual, the strength of their deviant convictions breed heartache and despair if they are in positions of national leadership. We draw our strength from the Lord. When we acknowledge Him as the source and use that power given to us under His Holy Spirit\u2019s power, then the result will be great contributions to others. That is why we are so often admonished to honor and serve our God with diligence and to recognize Him as Lord! Failure to do so makes a man defiant to the end!\nEph.6:10 \u2013 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Mark 12:30 \u2013 Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.\u2019\nA story I heard personally from Malcolm Muggeridge (that stirred me then and still does even yet) was his account of a conversation he had with Svetlana Stalin, the daughter of Josef Stalin. She spent some time with Muggeridge in his home in England while they were working together on their BBC production on the life of her father. According to Svetlana, as Stalin lay dying, plagued with terrifying hallucinations, he suddenly sat halfway up in bed, clenched his fist toward the heavens once more, fell back upon his pillow, and was dead.\nThe incredible irony of his whole life is that at one time Josef Stalin had been a seminary student, preparing for the ministry. Coming of Nietzschean age, he made a decisive break from his belief in God. This dramatic and complete reversal of conviction that resulted in his hatred for all religion is why Lenin had earlier chosen Stalin and positioned him in authority\u2014a choice Lenin too late regretted. (The name Stalin, which means \u201csteel,\u201d was not his real name, but was given to him by his contemporaries who fell under the steel-like determination of his will.) And as Stalin lay dying, his one last gesture was a clenched fist toward God, his heart as cold and hard as steel. (Ravi Zacharias, Can Man Live Without God.).\nGiving Is the Sign of Gratitude Please, Please\u2026..Tell Me Again!",

These are most vulnerable. The indecisive wafflers are the least vulnerable.\nThe Paragon-lover probably revisits the decision whenever confronting something that reminds them of their love for the city. Or, depending on personality, on packing the bag, reaching the gates, etcetera. If they're proud, or driven by a temporary tragedy, or don't believe in changing their mind, then maybe they leave. Otherwise, it's hackey-sack.\nIn combat, I suspect that sufficiently stupid decisions are instantly revisited, but that reasonably valid tactical choices-ones that don't jump out of the context of your thoughts-are forcable. In other words, your brain is going to discard the choice to invoke Armored Scout's Invigoration at random, whether you've been Forced into it or just randomly toyed with the notion.\nYou can in fact Combo Force Decision and Harmony of Blows, but I'm not sure it's legal to invoke the resulting Combo. You'd have to use Force Decision with both extra actions, but Force Decision is not an attack action using Archery, Brawl, Melee, or Thrown, so you can't.\nCombos with Harmony of Blows really need to pick their simple/supplemental Charm set from exactly one of Archery, Brawl, Melee, or Thrown.",

        "title": "Failure to repeal Obamacare is the albatross Republicans must cast away to keep the House",
        "raw_content": "Failure to repeal Obamacare is the albatross Republicans must cast away to keep the House\nMaintaining a Senate majority is looking more and more likely, but Republicans in the House are in trouble. Democrats are throwing a threat of repealing Obamacare back in the faces of Republicans who failed to do as promised. Sentiment has shifted and suddenly a majority want to keep Obamacare where it is. It could cost them the House.\nFor the record, I was against the repeal and replacement plan the GOP put forward because it replaced government-run healthcare with\u2026 government-run healthcare. Had they been bold and simply repealed it, then spent real time and energy coming up with solutions for those in the most need, they\u2019d be in much better position today. Instead, we\u2019re stuck with Obamacare and the House is in jeopardy because of it.\nVoters are fickle. They were for Obamacare before they were against it before they were for it again. The window of opportunity to repeal and replace it closed and they\u2019re going into the midterm elections without a plan to to take another shot at it next year.\nIt was the promise to repeal Obamacare that got them the House in 2010, the Senate in 2014, and the White House in 2016. Failing to do what they promised when they had the opportunity is the albatross about their necks right now. The very thing that won for them is quite possibly what will make them lose.\nNow, they\u2019re trying a new strategy: hang Bernie Sanders\u2019 $32 trillion universal health care proposal on every Democrats\u2019 neck regardless of whether they support the plan or not. It\u2019s a dishonest ploy with ads running against Democrats who have publicly denounced the plan. If the Republicans aren\u2019t careful, they\u2019re going to get accused of treating the people like fools who won\u2019t do their own research (which is true for most, but it\u2019s still not a play that\u2019s wise to make this close to the election).\nAs a conservative and a Federalist, I have no horse in these races. If I were forced to choose, I\u2019d vote against Democrats. But I\u2019m not forced to choose (this is still America) so the advice I\u2019m about to give is not out of appreciation for the Republicans\u2019 plight but out of fear of the Democrats being in power.\nGOP, stop playing the fear game and put forth a plan\nRepublicans know the general public no longer wants them to repeal Obamacare. Polls are very clear. So, they\u2019ve decided to take the side of the status quo (keep Obamacare as-is) and push the Democrats further to the left (all embracing Bernie\u2019s plan). This is a bad plan that won\u2019t work, but even if it did work it shouldn\u2019t be done because it\u2019s disingenuous. Leave that line of campaigning to the left. Take the higher road.\nRepublicans already have the framework for a repeal and replacement plan that would pass IF they get more control of the Senate and retain control of the House. Roll it out. Now. Democrats have already made healthcare one of the defining issues of this election. Double down on them and lay out a plan. Then, let the plan win the elections for you.\nDemocrats will attack it, but you have something in your favor. You have Lisa Murkowski. I know what everyone\u2019s thinking. She\u2019s the lone traitor who almost cost Brett Kavanaugh his confirmation. That makes her bad, right? Well, yes, but as one who voted against the repeal and replacement plans, it gives her credibility to endorse the new plan that you roll out next week\u2026\n\u2026if you were smart and rolled out a plan next week. Which you\u2019re not. So you won\u2019t.\nBut hypothetically, if you rolled out the Republican Affordable Care Act Phase One Fix, you could start dismantling Obamacare. Perhaps more importantly, you would catch Democrats (and the press) off guard and have nearly four weeks to demonstrate why you\u2019re not the bad guys who will pull the rug out from under people. You\u2019re trying to fix healthcare. That\u2019s potentially a winning message. If you put forth a plan that Murkowski (and possibly a few Democrats) could endorse, it\u2019s a a sure thing.\nInstead, you\u2019re probably going to keep doing what you\u2019re doing, accusing moderate Democrats of being far-left Bernie socialists. Yes, some are, but the ads are going after pretty much all of them. You\u2019re relying on the naivety of voters instead of putting forth solutions and educating people on why they\u2019ll work.\nBy restarting the process to fulfill your promise to repeal and replace Obamacare, the GOP will have the winning narrative. Drop this propaganda push and do what you said you were going to do.\nRelated Topics:Election 2018featuredObamacareTop Story",

        "title": "News Coverage on Casino Gambling: Ithaca Journal - Anti-gambling group opposes casino amendment by Jon Campbell",
        "raw_content": "Anti-gambling group opposes casino amendment\nhttp://www.theithacajournal.com/article/20120521/NEWS10/205210390/Anti-gambling-...\nALBANY -- For a coalition of religious groups and community advocates, it's never too early to look toward next year.\nState lawmakers in March passed a constitutional amendment that would allow for seven full-fledged casinos statewide. But an amendment must be passed by consecutively elected sessions of the Legislature and later by a vote of the public.\nThe anti-gambling coalition already has its eye on 2013, which is the soonest date the second vote by the Legislature and one by the public could take place.\nThe group -- the Coalition Against Gambling in New York - has met with state legislators, hoping to connect with incumbents running for re-election who would again have to vote on the casino amendment next year.\n\"We feel that it's not too soon to begin laying the groundwork for a fight next year,\" said Joel Rose, the chairman of the Buffalo-based group. \"Most of the legislators who are here now will be back then, and we'll be talking to people who are candidates, also. This is not going to be the end of our efforts; this is really the beginning of our efforts on this amendment.\"\nThe coalition distributed a series of position papers on the amendment, opposing it for a variety of reasons. The economic development benefits of casinos are overrated, and legalizing any form of gambling raises \"moral questions\" about \"the state raising revenue at the expense of the most vulnerable,\" the group wrote.\n\"We're opposed to gambling because of the human destruction that it brings,\" said the Rev. Duane Motley, senior lobbyist for New Yorkers for Constitutional Freedoms, which is based in Monroe County. \"Gambling does not produce economic stimulus that the government likes to paint that it will.\"\nGov. Andrew Cuomo has been a supporter of the amendment allowing the seven casinos, saying New York already allows various forms of gambling and is losing tax revenue to bordering states that allow table games. The state is already home to five American Indian casinos, as well as video-lottery terminals housed at horseracing tracks.\n\"By taking these important first steps to legalize casinos we are finally confronting the reality that while New York is already in the gamingbusiness, we need a real plan to regulate and capitalize on the industry,\" Cuomo said in a statement in March.\nJames Featherstonhaugh, president of the New York Gaming Association, touted the job-creation and tax-revenue benefits of casinos, particularly when it comes to education funding. His group is pushing for Las Vegas-style casinos at the state's horse tracks.\n\"I understand that gambling, like many other things, brings some risks of societal issues being raised and brings some challenges if it's going to be done responsibly and well,\" he said. \"But when it is done responsibly, as I believe New York's existing racetrack casinos do in consultation with problem-gaming experts, then it really is just one more entertainment choice that the public can either use or not use as it desires.\"\nRose said his coalition is undeterred by the casinos and pro-gaming groups that have already begun funding advertising campaigns touting the benefits of the amendment.\n\"Even if this amendment passes and we have seven additional casinos, I don't know why anybody would think it will stop there,\" he said. \"There's all that untapped revenue from Internet gambling, so you can have casino gambling in your home 24/7 and lose your house while you're still in it.\"",

With no intentions grander than a simple desire to throw a sick party, Loud has created a captivating and multi-layered work of art. Custom-built for festival mainstages, this incredible performance \u2013 and arguably one of the biggest \u2013 which has delivered enormous sell-out tours across the US, Europe and Australia \u2013 originates from an ingeniously simple concept. It\u2019s a chronological history of popular mu- sic, not a cliche\u0301d DJ\u2019s \u2018journey\u2019, but an outright genealogy \u2013 a masterclass in the evolution of popular music and dance. Add to the equation incredibly well-cu- rated visuals, slick turntablism, unmatched stage presence and an FX bill to rival EDC\u2019s, and you\u2019re starting to get the picture. It\u2019s a theatrical level spectacle \u2013 one that brings audiences to their knees.\nGlance over the pond to his native Australia, and Hot Dub Time Machine is in a league of his own as the country\u2019s biggest DJ: consistently headlining the main stages at every major music festival, or selling out enormous headline national tours.\nHis immense fanbase has given him the leverage to launch his own nationally touring outdoor festival, selling-out each event. His name sake festival has done 100,000 tickets in the rst two years. Whether it\u2019s selling out London\u2019s Brixton Academy; breaking attendances records at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival with b2b arena shows; or causing riots at Coachella, there is no doubt that the immense love for Hot Dub Time Machine spreads far and wide.\nPossibly the most magic thing about Hot Dub\u2019s set is the e ect it has on even the staunchest critics \u2013 one and all never fail to stagger out of the venue out in a daze, pieces of confetti in their hair, raving uncontrollably, reciting the show\u2019s mission statement to all in their path: Best.

        "raw_content": "Home / Uncategorized / Tips to Empower and Energize Your Team\nYour employees are the backbone of your company, so empowering them to be the best they can be, is one of the most important things you can do as a leader. To achieve great results, you need a motivation strategy that helps to create and build upon a spirit of enthusiasm among your staff. By implementing some or all of the following suggestions, you can help maintain energy among your team and empower them to ensure continuous growth for your business.\nShare Your Vision with Your Staff\nWhen you share goals with your team, it helps empower them to feel a part of your vision. It gives them motivation to become an active member of the company culture and to see their role in the business as more than just a \u201cjob.\u201d You can encourage inclusion and motivation by thanking your team and individual staff members every time you reach a company goal. Make sure to always let them know how important they are to the vision every step of the way.\nYou probably hired your staff because of the professional experience they bring to the job. For that reason, among many, you should take the time to listen to their ideas and open your door (literally!) and invite them to share their thoughts, concerns, and concepts with you. By interacting with your staff and opening a good line of communication, you develop trust and will discover new things you never knew and a variety of perspective.\nMake People Feel Appreciated\nA simple \u201cThank you\u201d goes a long way. Even better, a token of your appreciation. You don\u2019t have to get fancy with your gratitude, but showing your sincere thanks is one of the most motivating things you can do for your employees. Feeling appreciated will make them feel as though what they are doing has purpose, that it\u2019s being noticed, and that they aren\u2019t just a number.\nAssign Challenging Tasks\nGiving your staff projects that push them to grow shows that you believe in them. This trust is motivating and allows them to develop new skills they never knew they had. It\u2019s a win-win for everyone because you get more from your employees and they gain confidence they may not have had.5. Don\u2019t Micromanage\nThis one may be particularly hard if you like to maintain control at all times. But being a good supervisor does not mean controlling your employees\u2019 every step. By giving people the freedom to creatively solve issues, you are encouraging them to go outside of the box, which helps them grow and feel a connection with their work.\nDon\u2019t Let Your Employees Become Bored\nAlong the same lines as \u201cassigning challenging tasks,\u201d be sure you avoid routine. That is one of the greatest ways to kill off enthusiasm and productivity. Make sure your employees are engaged in their work and try to make it as interesting as possible for them.7. Keep a Good Working Environment\nYour employees (and you!) spend a great amount of time each week in the office, so the more energizing and motivating the environment, the better. Make the working environment a beautiful place with a positive atmosphere.Empowering and energizing your team is not a difficult task, and it\u2019s never too late. Even if you have noticed your employees are bored and unengaged, you can change the environment today to improve the energy of your team in no time.",

But at the same ceremony, where military hardware and troops paraded past the top brass, Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei's senior military adviser said Iran's anger at Riyadh's intervention in Bahrain had not diminished.\n\"The presence of Saudi forces in Bahrain to suppress the Bahraini people is against international law and is a kind of military interference in the internal affairs of Bahrain which is condemned from the international law standpoint,\" Yahya Rahim-Safavi, former chief of Iran's elite Revolutionary Guards, told reporters.\n\"The presence and behavior of Saudi Arabia is a kind of ignoble heresy,\" he said, adding: \"The same fate might happen to the country itself and under the same pretext Saudi Arabia might be attacked.\"\nThe war of words between Iran, the largest Shi'ite Muslim-dominated country in the region and an arch foe of the United States, and the Sunni Gulf Arab monarchies which are allied to Washington, has intensified in recent days.\nSaudi Arabia's top cleric last week accused Iran of interfering in other countries' affairs and accused it of \"hypocrisy and deception.\nWhile showing off its military strength, Iran has stressed it had no bellicose intentions against its Arab neighbors, despite being characterized as a major threat by Israel which believes Tehran is seeking nuclear weapons, a charge it denies.\nThe commander of Iran's army said it planned to extend the range of its naval operations, weeks after it sent two navy ships through the Suez Canal for the first time since the 1979 Islamic revolution, a move Israel described as a \"provocation.\"\n\"As you observe today Iran has opened a footing in the Mediterranean Sea area, and in the same way that foreign forces enter our region so can we enter international waters,\" Major General Ataollah Salehi was quoted as saying by the semi-official Mehr news agency.\n\"We intend to double the range of our water presence twice what it is now,\" he said. \"Presently the navy's mission zone applicable for submarines has shifted from the Persian Gulf to the Sea of Oman.\" (Reuters)",

It failed due to a poor libretto but the overture has endured. A keynote of the mysteries of elfland and the life of the spirits of the air, earth and water, it has been characterized from beginning to end as \"intoxicating sweetness\".\nCarl Maria von Weber (1786-1826) was a German composer, conductor, pianist, guitarist and critic. He was born in northern Germany, the first child of fifty-year-old Franz, an accomplished violinist and impressario, and sixteen-year-old Genoveva. Impressed by the success of Mozart as a child prodigy, Franz set about developing in his son the same talents and gifts. Carl completed his musical studies in Vienna and became a conductor at age eighteen. He suffered a series of career setbacks and took to heavy drinking, but straightened up and entered a period of prolific composing. There followed many successful engagements in Dresden, Leipzig, Prague and Berlin and appointment as Director of the German Opera Dresden. Richard Wagner credited Weber with being the father of the Romantic Opera, and though he composed few operas, they had great audience appeal and received many performances in their time.",

The four male inductees, Robert Campbell, Peter Gallant, Mark O\u2019Rourke, and Mark Butler, all played on the same team for PEI Tankard wins in 1991, \u201993, \u201995, \u201997. and \u201999, with each also having Tankard victories in other years with different team combinations, along with multiple PEI Mixed wins. Campbell also won the Canadian Mixed twice, with Gallant and O\u2019Rourke also winning that event.\nThe evening, sponsored by PEI Ford Dealers, Beaton\u2019s Wholesale Dry Goods, Phillips Feed Service, the Town of Cornwall, and the Consolidated Credit Union, started with the inductees, led by Hall of Fame chair Jerry Muzika.\nEntrance \u2013 Jerry Muzika, Mark Butler\nMaster of Ceremonies Paul H.

Robinson, who curled with and against the inductees, joked that his losses to them undoubtedly contributed to their Hall of Fame inductions.\nThe five inductees were then called to the stage, where they were presented with pins and certificates by a Hall of Fame Board Member. followed by the unveiling of their portrait, drawn by Board Member Wayne Wright. Each inductee then took the opportunity to thank their families, their teammates, their coaches, their sponsors and everyone else involved with advancing their curling careers over the years. Peter Gallant, who coaches the Korean Women\u2019s team, was unable to attend, with his wife Leanne collecting the awards, and his son, Christopher reading this thank-you message.\nWayne Wright (left) unveiling Mark Butler\u2019s portrait.\nRobert Campbell at the podium\nLeeanne and Christopher Gallant\nBoard member Arleen Harris (left) presenting certificate to Kathy O\u2019Rourke.\nMark O\u2019Rourke (left), unveiling portrait with Board member Al Ledgerwood",

He uses X-ray spectroscopy to determine the gas temperatures and chemical abundances in these atmospheres, in order to help determine how galaxies and clusters evolve. More specifically, Prof. White uses X-ray observations to constrain theoretical models of supernovae (exploding stars), which enrich these atmospheres with elements such as oxygen, silicon, and iron. Professor White also uses X-ray observations to investigate the origin and energetics of high-redshift Lyman-alpha-emitting clouds, in collaboration with Professor Keel.\nProfessor White collaborated with Professor Keel in a very different research direction: using partially overlapping pairs of galaxies to determine whether spiral galaxies are largely opaque or transparent to light. The non-overlapping parts of the background galaxy can be used to reconstruct how much of its light is lost from the overlapping parts as it passes through the foreground galaxy. They used this technique to construct detailed maps of the dust (which blocks light) in several spiral galaxies.\nProfessor White received his doctoral degree from the University of Virgina in 1986. He joined the faculty of The University of Alabama in 1988.",

        "raw_content": "There is no justification for extending the already extremely long transitional period for chinchilla breeders\n- A public hearing until December 20: say no on killing for fur; even 10 years of the transitional period was too much!\nEven the birds in the trees know that, in Croatia, animal breeding for fur was banned in 2006 and that it should take effect on January 1, 2017. But the Ministry of Agriculture, due to pressure from the few remaining breeders, opened a new public consultation in which it is proposed to extend the transitional period for chinchilla breeders until January 1, 2018, while chinchillas remain the only animals in Croatia that are being bred for fur.\nThe proposal for a change started as an emergency procedure, as if it was a national priority and not a suggestion for retrogression of legislation that is the pride of the entire Croatia and serves to protect the defenseless. It's completely absurd that a few weeks before the expiration of the transitional period, its extension is being proposed.\nAs a reason for extending the deadline, breeders have claimed chinchillas are too young for removing their fur and that pregnant female chinchilla should be killed if the transition period is not extended for another year. Animal Friends does not consider this necessary because all these breeders have been able to do it at least ten times so far. Instead, AFC is proposing that, with the help of the citizens, the organization will house all chinchillas.\nThe large majority of breeders repurposed their businesses after a few years from the beginning of the transitional period. Even the Ministry itself called a transitional period of 10 years \"appropriate\" for the cessation of production. The remaining minority of only 30 breeders deliberately ignored the legal provision prohibiting the breeding of animals for fur with the goal to undermine the ban on fur farming. With the extension of the transitional period, petty profiteering interests would be favored, which would bring legal instability into Croatian legislation.\nWhile debating back in 2006 on whether the transitional period should be five, seven or ten years, the extremely long ten-year transitional period was agreed precisely in order to avoid even the possibility of failure to implement this important legislation. Extending this period would constitute a violation of human and animal rights, negate the very essence of how the country functions and contradict the will of the majority of the Croatian public.\nAnimal Friends has been contacted by many shocked and disappointed citizens who feel cheated and deceived. Again, the votes of citizens will now decide whether chinchillas in Croatia are to spend yet another year of their life suffering with small cages, disease, abnormal stereotyped behavior, disorders in reproduction, offspring mortality and ultimately, a brutal death for their fur.\nThe association invites everyone to leave a comment at a public hearing and oppose the extension of the transitional period caused by pressure from interest groups. Animal Friends asks for the praiseworthy fur farming ban to take effect on January 1, 2017, and the organization is offering its help in accommodating chinchillas.",

Clips can be viewed in their entirety and purchased at HDNatureFootage.net or click here for Quicktime format.\nKruger National Park Stock Video Footage\nKruger National Park is world famous for its biological diversity. There is no end of things to see and film. However, that is not to say that filming wildlife at the park is easy. The biggest challenge is that you are generally restricted to your vehicle meaning that a ground-based tripod cannot be used. So you will need to come up with an alternative configuration such as a bean bag-tripod head mount. This of course makes the use of long lens difficult because of camera shake. Nevertheless you should bring a long lens as well as some wide angle lens because in some cases that elephant may be right next to the road.\nBecause Kruger is such a popular park, with photogenic and iconic species such as lion, elephant, giraffe, leopard, rhinoceros, and others, there is plenty of stock footage collected from the park. Nevertheless, it should be on every videographer's buck list.\nKruger National Park Video\nPronghorn Productions now sells its Kruger National Park and African stock video footage at:\nKruger National Park is a multi-million acre park in northest South Africa. It arguably competes with Yellowstone National Park as the most famous national park in the world. Although a closed system surrounded by fences, and fraught with issues such as poaching, it is a generally self-sustaining healthy ecosystem.\nYou can see pretty much all of Africa's iconic species at the park including the African lion, African elephant, zebra, giraffe, wilderbeest, leopard, wild dog, warthog, hyena, jackal, cape buffalo, white and black rhinoceros, hippopotamus, crocodile, vulture, stork, and others. Being a national park the animals are tolerant of cars and people, and in some cases, such as with baboons and monkeys in the campgrounds and picnic areas, the animals can become pests. When there is interesting sighting, such as a lion or leopard kill, you may have plenty of company at the sighting, but being a huge park you will generally have lots of space.\nThe park has a great network of very affordable rest camps; however, you will want to reserve ahead as they do book full in peak seasons. For a special experience stay at one of the two overnight hides (blinds) in the park. You are allowed to use a torch to see things at night, and even if you don't see or film anything you are certain to hear some noises from the African bush.",

        "raw_content": "Home Reviews Album Reviews Beach House \u2013 7\nRiYL: M83, Slowdive, Autolux\nRecommended Tracks: \u201cBlack Car\u201d, \u201cDark Spring\u201d, \u201cLose Your Smile\u201d\nThe infamous Baltimore dream-pop duo Beach House comes back with 7, their seventh full-length album following the near-simultaneous releases of Depression Cherry and Thank Your Lucky Stars back in 2015. While both were decent LPs, they felt like a by-the-books, uncompromising blueprint of their style, with nothing to really come back to in the same way their previous releases were. It seemed like the band felt the same way, stating when they released their B-Sides and Rarities compilation back in 2016 they were \u201ccleaning out the closet,\u201d implying that they were planning on trying something new for their next release. This implication was only strengthened with the decision to hire Peter Kembler (aka Sonic Boom) as the producer for this new record.\nWhen lead single \u201cLemon Glow\u201d first released, I enjoyed the track, but I wasn\u2019t completely sure on what to expect from the album itself. The song sounded quite a lot like their previous releases, but there was something that felt somewhat different as well, even though it was difficult to pinpoint what exactly. Hearing it in the context of the album, however, I felt like it was the best choice to release as lead single. It\u2019s the track that sounds the closest to their previous releases, but it also gives the listener a taste for the more experimental direction the album takes, somewhat comparable to Nirvana\u2019s decision to release \u201cHeart-Shaped Box\u201d as the lead single for their more abrasive In Utero. Overall, it\u2019s a damn good dream-pop track, making great usage of Victoria Legrand\u2019s whispery vocals and highlighting her tendency to find just the right keyboard textures to produce a blissful, floating-in-space vibe.\nA lot of parts in this new album sound borderline shoegaze, with messier, static-ier synth and guitar textures. Sonic Boom, who\u2019s best known as a member of space/drone rock progenitors Spacemen 3, likely had an influence in this. The opener, \u201cDark Spring\u201d, is the most obvious example, which has who I believe to be guitarist Alex Scally taking up lead vocals that sound reminiscent of Neil Halstead of Slowdive. It also has a more pounding drum beat than one would typically expect from a Beach House track. \u201cPay No Mind\u201d sounds like the mellower songs from Autolux\u2019s releases, and the subtle, drowning buzz in the background is a nice touch. The intro to \u201cDive\u201d has an organ riff of sustained notes that reminds me a bit The Radio Dept.\u2019s \u201cStrange Things Will Happen\u201d, but it\u2019s noticeably more distorted. The vibe of the intro reminds me of being a cathedral, the echos of the guitar strokes helping establish that image.\nThe album also takes directions I never expected Beach House to go. Some parts of 7 sound somewhat like elements of pop songs from the 80\u2019s, such as \u201cGirl of The Year,\u201d reminding me of the more experimental, keyboard heavy tracks from The Cure\u2019s Disintegration. \u201cDrunk in LA\u201d also has a guitar solo that sounds like it was influenced by 80\u2019s pop. It\u2019s unexpected, and although it should not work as well as it does, it is by far the most pleasant surprise of the album. It really needs to be heard to be believed.\nThe rest of the album is filled with nice touches as well. \u201cBlack Car,\u201d my favorite track on the album, uses an adorable keyboard riff that brings to mind raindrops on a calm rainy day. \u201cLose Your Smile\u201d is a beautiful but somewhat unusual-sounding ballad, reminding me a bit of what Wilco did with Yankee Hotel Foxtrot. \u201cLast Ride\u201d had a great piano riff that I felt emulated the Sinatra-era style of piano-playing, although I could be wrong on that front. The beautiful cacophony of synth and guitar fuzz at the end of the track makes for a hell of a closer for the album.\n7 not only handles the delicate task of pushing the band\u2019s sound while still sounding like a Beach House record, it gives some of their strongest material to date, making 7 a very strong contender for the best album of their discography.\n7 manages to push the band\u2019s dreamy sound while still sounding like a Beach House record, easily becoming one of the best albums of their discography.",

        "raw_content": "It\u2019s Cold and Gray\nI so enjoy the fall colors. The air is turning brisk in the morning and the sun is dropping in the sky as we head toward the winter solstice. I love the fall season.\nOnly a few short weeks ago, I was walking in shirtsleeves along the Carson River in the midst of the fall season. Not long after this image was captured, the weather turned blustery and cool, a sure sign that winter was coming. And, not to disappoint, the windy days were followed by a distinct cooling and we moved into a late dry, cold fall. The temperatures fell into the \u2018teens and the leaves quickly shed their remaining leaves, falling into their winter clothes.\nIt was not long before the first rains came. We do not have a lot of rain here on the east side of the Sierra Nevada. But, we have some. Soon, the rains were mixed with and then replaced by snow.\nI do not mind the snow. Neither does The Girl. She is heavily muscled and the cold does not bother her so long as we are moving. I can layer up and the cold does not bother me (so long as we are moving).\nTherefore, in the cold we move. I still love to walk along the Carson River. On some days the raptors are particularly active (gotta have food to generate heat) and they are beautiful in the colder light. They soar and call and sometimes I see them cup their wings on the hunt. I will always be amazed at those sights.\nThe Girl pulls me along, always searching the sage for something to chase. She also plays in the snow and sometimes will go into a zoomie, running like crazy with her legs splayed out and spinning about me. The snow often makes her playful and we play.\nAnd then I will see an image like this one in my collection. There is a certain longing for the warmer days and the beautiful colors that have now gone as cold as the air. But it is alright \u2014 I know the season will turn yet again and bring warmer days and colors back to the land. I feel a certain rhythm to the change and it is something that resonates with the internal changes I experience with the seasons. It is good. Life is good.\nI remain thankful.\n2 thoughts on \u201cIt\u2019s Cold and Gray\u201d\nAnother great blog. Thank you for sharing\nThanks and you\u2019re welcome, Judy.",

        "title": "Autism and God \u2013 Renaissance Now",
        "raw_content": "To understand the challenges that the church has when engaging with autism, let\u2019s talk briefly about what autism is. Autism is fundamentally characterized by difficulties in understand the mental and emotional state of other people, and a tendency towards systemizing behaviour. In my case, this means that I struggle to know what other people are thinking and feeling; indeed I sometimes struggle to know what I am feeling.\nAnd there we have a problem. Because faith is often talked about in terms of emotions, and specifically in terms of God\u2019s emotions. I\u2019ve frequently heard people say \u201cI really felt that God was telling me to change jobs\u201d, or \u201cI feel that God wants me to tell you something\u201d, or \u201cI felt a leading to go on a missions trip.\u201d\nIn the evangelical world this is a very normal way of speaking. Historically, we have placed a deep emphasis on the personal nature of faith, on the idea that a relationship with God is something that is open to everyone, without the need for mediation through an institution or a priesthood. And we have taught that the individual believer can receive direction and instruction from God.\nAnd here is where I struggle. Because when people say \u201cI really feel that God wants\u2026\u201d, they\u2019re telling me that they are intuiting the wants and desires and emotional state of a divine being.\nBut I have difficulty intuiting the wants, desires, and emotional states of everyday people. I have difficulty figuring out the emotional states of my friends and family. I have difficulty sensing the emotional states of my wife. Frankly, I have difficulty seeing my own emotional states.\nSo if active participation in my faith requires being able to sense how some Other is feeling, then I have a problem. It\u2019s almost like telling someone with club foot that running a marathon is a necessary entry requirement to this club that we call the church.\nBefore I started writing this article, I did some research to see what had already been written on the subject of autism and religion. Unfortunately, there\u2019s very little. There is the study I referenced above that saw the correlation between autism and atheism. There are a few articles that talk about how to bring your children to church without triggering a meltdown. And there are a few resources that note that the churchgoing experience has the possibility to trigger some of the sensory processing issues that are so common in people on the spectrum. Loud noises, large crowds, a requirement to sit still for an hour, strange sounds, smells and tastes; all of these can trigger sensory overload. Going to church can become an exercise in crisis management, not an opportunity to engage in a faith community in a profound, transformative way.\nBut I believe that autism is a theological issue. How we talk about it, how we describe it and how we think about it will affect how we treat people on the spectrum. And it will affect how we learn from people on the spectrum. Fundamentally, we will have to decide whether we see autism as a disease to be cured, or a difference to be cherished.\n\u2190 Sevastopol is Russia\u2019s Faslane\tBleeding Heartbeats \u2192",

        "raw_content": "Country profile Botswana 2017\nThe economy of Botswana is highly dependent on the natural resources sector, mainly minerals. Accordingly, economic diversification is a priority in all national development programs and initiatives. The eleventh national development plan, passed by parliament in December 2016, is expected to anchor development planning up to the first quarter of 2023. It elaborates the national endeavor to diversify the economy away from minerals and to tackle other development challenges. Based on the theme \u201cInclusive growth for realization of employment creation and poverty eradication\u201d, the plan is aimed at tackling the high rates of poverty and unemployment and income inequality, which persist, even though the country recorded average real economic growth of 3.7 per cent over the period 2009-2016. The objectives of the plan are to be achieved through six priority areas: developing diversified sources of economic growth; human capital development; social development; sustainable use of natural resources; consolidation of good governance; and strengthening of national security supported by the implementation of an effective monitoring and evaluation system. The economy expanded in 2016 despite unstable economic growth globally, a key factor behind the contraction of the economy by 1.7 per cent in 2015. The growth of GDP, which at current prices amounted to P 169.7 billion in 2016, was supported by a strong economic rebound during the last quarter of the year, in which the economy expanded by 16.3 per cent as compared with the same quarter in the previous year.\n\u201cUnited Nations.

        "raw_content": "This talk by Alan Ayckbourn offers a glimpse of how he works in-the-round. The date and location of the talk is not known.\nI\u2019ve found theatre in the round to be an extremely liberating medium to work in; you can employ a sort of fluency, and a lot of things fall naturally into place.\nMost proscenium arch theatres, most end-stage theatres, have an angle of visibility, sight lines, which of necessity dictate what you, the audience, can see. With the round everything is visible, every square foot of the playing space is viable playing space. In the round, it is vital that the actors understand where they are standing in relation to each other. This is perhaps more important than it is even in the proscenium where the director often arranges people simply to create a good picture. In the round, they may look pleasing from one side but walk round to the other side and they look anything but. You can't make arrangements and pretty pictures in the same way.\nWhat you have to do is to try and arrange actors so that, emotionally, they relate in the right way to each other. Put simply, if you know two people are enemies, they will stand slightly further apart than they will if they are lovers. Certainly in the round, people rarely stand close together unless they intend to kiss each other or punch each other. A lot of the time we are playing with the subtle spaces that exist between physical beings, which is interesting and usually instinctive for actors.\nThe round is very much an actor-controlled medium. Having said that, they do need guidance, as indeed all casts need. In the round, there are a few basic areas to avoid, like standing with your back to the stage and looking down a vomitory (vom) for a major speech, but most actors instinctively find that for themselves. Nonetheless, it is worth pointing out: standing with your back to a vom and facing into the main body of the stage is usually a very strong place to stand, a good place for a major speech, while standing in the centre of the stage is probably not the strongest place. An actor\u2018s instinct is generally to try to gain the centre stage, but in the round you would then find you want to keep spinning round in order to cover all the auditorium. It's interesting that theatre in the round is very conducive to company acting but not so good for stars. Star actors tend not to be too fond of the round because they cannot dominate the stage completely. It can be hard to realise that if you're playing a scene with another person, then that person is as important as you in making the scene work. It's the sort of theatre I love.\nTheatre in the round also only works satisfactorily when it is genuinely in the round. I know from experience from working in various in-the-round spaces that trying to persuade actors to play truly in the round when clearly they sense that 75% of their audience is concentrated in one block or on one particular side, is a forlorn hope. Also, the audience ideally should be looking down on the stage whilst not being so far or steeply above it that the actor cannot make contact with them without physical contortion. As a general rule, in-the-round back rows should be at a level whereby it remains possible for the actor on stage and their seated audience to have eye contact. And by the round, I don\u2018t mean that the stage itself has to be round or even oval. It simply means that the audience surrounds the stage. The playing space in Scarborough is square.\nStephen Joseph - who had an enormous influence on me - would say that theatre in the round was the original theatre form \u2013 ever since the Greeks staged plays. His love of the round was based upon its immediacy. His great concept \u2013 which I agree with \u2013 was that the only thing that mattered about theatre, when it came to it, was the actor and the audience. And the round, more than any other medium, emphasises this most strongly. The actor is in the middle with the audience surrounding him, and everything else, really, is extraneous",

        "raw_content": "World's 1st Radio Broadcast from a Moving Train\nYou might have noticed that since last November the engineering and science themed daily RF Cafe header images have been much larger than those which graced the pages in the past. The change was motivated mainly by a desire to make them more viewable on the tiny screens of mobile phones. It also gave me the opportunity to include more information. In the process, I took the occasion of being on each engineering and technology daily history page to check on the validity of the long ago included hyperlinks to pages which validated dates of events. Use of Wikipedia was avoided because of the joke-worthy reputation it had for bogus information which was either made up by pranksters or simply regurgitated from other inaccurate sources on the Web. I thought Wikipedia was past that, but evidently based on a recent discovery there are still instances of bad data.\nWhile creating a new RF Cafe day in history header for March 24, I tried to look up the web page where I originally got the date for the world's first commercial radio broadcast from a moving train. The feat was accomplished by station WJZ out of New Jersey, while aboard a Baltimore and Ohio (B&O) train. The URL was dead, so I looked to Wikipedia as a new authoritative source. March 24, 1932, was confirmed as the date on more than one Wikipedia page.\nSince I wanted to use that event as the theme for the day's history graphic, I did more searching to look for a picture, but to no avail - just more reiterations of March 24th being the day. So, I decided to use my Newspapers.com subscription to look for old news accounts of it. Without exception, every newspaper of the day reported the broadcast as occurring on Sunday, March 27, 1932 - not the 24th. It was Easter Sunday. The Allentown Morning Call reported the event in its Sunday, March 27, 1932 edition. The Brooklyn Daily Eagle announced the upcoming trial in its Sunday, March 20, 1932, edition, and finally The Ithaca Journal-News reported on the success in its April 14, 1932 edition.\nSure, it's not really that big of a deal, and not many people care at this late date, but the point of the story is that even though some websites have worked hard to try to parse \"fake news,\" to use a popular phrase du jour, there are still plenty of places where it creeps in.

        "raw_content": "Michigan Federal Court Holds Title Insurance Company Had No Duty to Mitigate Damages Beyond Retaining Attorney for Insured\nThe United States District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan recently held that the title insurance company\u2019s duty to mitigate damages was limited to retaining counsel for its insured, and that the attorney\u2019s failure to file a timely proof of claim with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (\u201cFDIC\u201d) was not imputed. See Fid. Nat\u2019l Title Ins. Co. v. Title One, Inc., 2016 WL 3971210 (E.D. Mich. 2016). There, a title agent conducted a closing in which it was supposed to pay off one prior mortgage and obtain a subordination from another. It failed to obtain the subordination agreement, and the prior mortgagee later initiated a foreclosure. The title insurance company had issued a policy insuring the first-lien position of the insured\u2019s mortgage, so it retained an attorney to represent the insured. While the parties disputed their respective priorities, the prior lender failed and the FDIC assumed its assets. Due to an apparent miscommunication between the retained attorney and the FDIC, the insured\u2019s proof of claim was not timely filed and the insured\u2019s priority claim was dismissed. The title insurance company then sued the title agent for breach of contract in not obtaining the proper subordination. Although the agent conceded that it had failed to secure the subordination, it argued that the untimely filing of the proof of claim was imputed to the title insurance company, and its action was barred because of its failure to mitigate damages. The parties filed cross-motions for summary judgment, and the court granted the title insurance company\u2019s motion. Under Michigan law, because no attorney-client relationship exists between an insurance company and an attorney representing its insured, the retained attorney\u2019s actions may not be imputed to the insurance company. Therefore, the title insurance company\u2019s duty to mitigate damages was limited to retaining the attorney. Having done so, the title insurance company had proven its breach of contract claim.\nCalifornia District Court Dismisses Complaint Alleging Wrongful Foreclosure for Lack of Standing on the Ground that a Mistake in Recording Renders an Assignment Void, Not Voidable\nSupreme Court Holds That Unaccepted Settlement Offer Does Not Moot Class Action\nPennsylvania Superior Court Finds Ambiguity in Title Insurance Policy\u2019s Description of the Insured Property Precludes Summary Judgment",

Dental implants are the best alternative to your own original teeth, and will provide you with the most natural and comfortable solution possible.\nSome patients have been told that they are not good candidates for fully implant supported teeth for various reasons. Because of newer technologies and innovative ideas in the field of advanced implant dentistry, however, even the most seemingly hopeless dental situations can usually be fully reversed and rectified in as little as one treatment day!\nOf course, all patients are evaluated specific to their individual needs and wants, but many are surprised at the possibilities available to them, even if they have been told by other doctors that their treatment will need to be very long, expensive, or sometimes not even possible.",

        "raw_content": "RPM Reports Fourth-Quarter and Full-Year Results for Fiscal 2017\nCompleted nine acquisitions in fiscal 2017 to enhance growth\nLowered headcount and closed unprofitable facilities to reduce cost\nFourth-quarter sales increase 5%\nNet income down 16%; adjusted net income down 10% due to higher tax rate\nEBIT decreased 5%; adjusted EBIT increased 2%\nMEDINA, Ohio--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jul. 24, 2017-- RPM International Inc. (NYSE: RPM) today reported record sales for its fiscal fourth quarter and year ended May 31, 2017. Net income and diluted earnings per share for both periods declined following impairment charges and other non-repeating items earlier in the year, as well as a one-time severance charge in the fourth quarter.\nFourth-quarter net sales increased 4.6% to $1.49 billion from $1.43 billion a year ago. Net income for the fourth quarter was down 16.2% to $128.1 million from $152.9 million reported in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016. Diluted earnings per share were $0.94, a 16.8% decline from $1.13 reported a year ago. Income before income taxes (IBT) was off 6.7% to $185.7 million from $199.1 million a year ago. Consolidated earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) declined 5.1% to $209.1 million, from $220.4 million a year ago and included a $15.0 million severance charge. Excluding the $15.0 million severance charge, EBIT was $224.1 million, up 1.7% from a year ago. Diluted earnings per share excluding the severance charge were $1.02, a 9.7% decline from a year ago, driven primarily by a significantly higher tax rate this year compared to last year.\n\u201cWe took additional cost reduction measures in the fourth quarter to position RPM to a return to double-digit earnings growth in fiscal 2018. We were pleased with solid organic growth in both our industrial and specialty segments during the fourth quarter, which we expect to continue as we enter into fiscal 2018. Organic growth across our consumer businesses was down 1.0%, principally due to lower results at our Kirker nail enamel business, the negative impact of a very rainy start to the spring season for home improvement sales and a difficult comparison to our prior-year quarter in which organic growth across RPM\u2019s core consumer product lines increased 9.9%,\u201d stated Frank C. Sullivan, RPM chairman and chief executive officer.\n\u201cThe consolidated revenue increase, particularly in a growth-challenged economic environment, was mitigated somewhat on leverage to the bottom line as a result of higher raw material costs during the quarter, including shortages and availability issues in a couple of key product lines. Also, a significantly higher tax rate in the fourth quarter this year versus last year reduced earnings per share on a comparative basis by $0.12.\u201d\nFiscal 2017 fourth-quarter industrial segment sales were up 5.0% to $733.5 million from $698.6 million a year ago. Organic sales improved 2.2%, while acquisition growth added 4.3%. Foreign currency translation negatively impacted sales by 1.5%. Industrial segment IBT was down 14.9% to $92.1 million from $108.2 million a year ago. EBIT was down 14.9% to $93.4 million from $109.7 million in the fiscal 2016 fourth quarter. Industrial segment EBIT, excluding the $7.7 million severance charge, was $101.1 million, down 7.9% from a year ago, when an $8.0 million gain was recognized on the acquisition of the remaining 51.0% interest in Carboline Dalian Paint Production Co., Ltd. in China.\n\u201cThe improvement in industrial sales was driven predominately by strong growth in the U.S. by our high-performance polymer flooring and roofing businesses,\u201d stated Sullivan. \u201cBusinesses serving the oil and gas sector were off in the mid-single-digit range, which is actually an improvement over declines during the past two fiscal years. European sales were up in the mid-single-digit range in local currencies. In addition, unfavorable transactional foreign exchange reduced industrial segment EBIT by $5.5 million,\u201d stated Sullivan.\nSales in RPM\u2019s specialty segment increased 5.4% to $194.0 million from $184.2 million a year ago. Organic sales increased 3.6% and acquisition growth added 3.3%. Sales were negatively impacted by 1.5% in foreign currency translation. Specialty segment IBT increased 0.6% to $31.2 million from $31.1 million last year. EBIT increased 0.8% to $31.1 million from $30.9 million in the fiscal 2016 fourth quarter. Specialty segment EBIT, excluding the $2.9 million severance charge, was $34.0 million, up 10.2% from a year ago.\n\u201cThe specialty segment\u2019s sales growth was driven by recent acquisitions and solid organic growth, particularly in our specialty cleaning products, building restoration and wood treatment businesses,\u201d stated Sullivan.\nNet sales for RPM's consumer segment increased 3.9% to $565.3 million from $543.8 million in the fiscal 2016 fourth quarter. Organic sales were down 1.0%, while acquisition growth added 5.9%. Foreign exchange translation reduced sales by 1.0%. Consumer segment IBT was up 1.6% over the prior year, to $99.4 million from $97.9 million. EBIT was up 1.7% in the fiscal 2017 fourth quarter to $99.6 million from $98.0 million. Consumer segment EBIT, excluding the $4.3 million severance charge, was $103.9 million, up 6.1% from a year ago. Included in the fiscal 2016 fourth quarter was a $9.3 million Restore product line legal settlement charge.\n\u201cIn addition to continued underperformance at our Kirker nail enamel business, consumer segment sales were impacted by higher rainfall and cooler temperatures in the North American market during the fourth quarter, which slowed home maintenance and repair activities. We also experienced 9.9% organic growth in the fiscal 2016 fourth quarter, making for tough comparisons,\u201d stated Sullivan. \u201cWe have new senior management in place at Kirker and believe that this business has now established a stabilized base from which it can resume growth.\u201d\nFor fiscal 2017, cash from operations was $386.1 million, down 18.7% from $474.7 million in fiscal 2016. Total debt at the end of fiscal 2017 was $2.09 billion, compared to $1.64 billion at the end of fiscal 2016. RPM's net (of cash) debt-to-total capitalization ratio was 54.8%, compared to 50.0% at May 31, 2016. Capital spending in fiscal 2017 was $126.1 million, up from $117.2 million a year ago.\n\u201cOur financial position remains strong, allowing continuation of a robust acquisition program and capital spending for plant improvements. During the fourth quarter, we prepaid the December 2017 524(g) trust obligation in the amount of $119.1 million, as well as the fiscal 2018 U.S. Pension Plan contribution in the amount of $52.8 million,\u201d Sullivan stated.\nFiscal 2017 Full-Year Consolidated Sales and Earnings\nFiscal 2017 consolidated full-year net sales increased 3.0% to $4.96 billion from $4.81 billion in fiscal 2016. Net income declined 48.7% to $181.8 million from the reported $354.7 million in fiscal 2016. Diluted earnings per share of $1.36 were down 48.3% from $2.63 a year ago. IBT was down 49.5% to $244.3 million from $483.5 million in fiscal 2016. Consolidated EBIT was down 42.0% to $327.3 million from $564.8 million last year. Fiscal 2017 included a $12.3 million charge for closing a Flowcrete Middle East facility, a severance charge of $15.0 million and the Kirker goodwill and intangible impairment charge of $188.3 million. Excluding these items, as well as last year\u2019s Kirker earnout reversal of $14.5 million, EBIT declined 1.3% for the year to $542.9 million from $550.3 million a year ago. After excluding the same items, net income for the year declined 3.5% to $333.4 million from $345.5 million in fiscal 2016 and EPS declined 3.9% to $2.47 from $2.57 last fiscal year.\nFiscal 2017 Segment Sales and Earnings\nFiscal 2017 sales for RPM's industrial segment improved 2.9% to $2.56 billion from $2.49 billion in fiscal 2016. Organic sales increased 2.0%, with acquisition growth contributing 2.9%. Foreign currency translation negatively impacted sales by 2.0%. The industrial segment\u2019s IBT declined 5.4% to $243.3 million from $257.2 million in fiscal 2016. Industrial segment EBIT dropped 4.5% to $251.3 million from $263.3 million in fiscal 2016. Excluding the Flowcrete Middle East shutdown in the second quarter of $12.3 million and a severance charge in the fourth quarter of $7.7 million, industrial segment EBIT increased 3.1% to $271.3 million from a year ago.\nSpecialty segment sales increased 4.2% to $713.6 million from $684.6 million in fiscal 2016. Organic sales improved 2.8% and acquisitions added 3.1%. Foreign currency translation reduced sales by 1.7%. Specialty segment IBT was up 0.3% to $107.9 million from $107.5 million a year ago. EBIT was up 0.6% to $107.4 million from $106.7 million in fiscal 2016. Excluding the severance charge in the fourth quarter of $2.9 million, specialty segment EBIT increased 3.3% to $110.3 million from a year ago.\nConsumer segment sales for fiscal 2017 increased 2.6% to $1.68 billion from $1.64 billion in fiscal 2016. Organic sales increased by 0.6%, and acquisition growth added 3.4%. Currency translation negatively impacted sales by 1.4%. IBT declined 78.1% to $58.7 million from $268.2 million in fiscal 2016. Consumer segment EBIT decreased 78.0%, to $59.0 million from $268.2 million a year ago. Excluding the Kirker goodwill and intangible impairment charge of $188.3 million in the second quarter and a severance charge of $4.3 million in the fourth quarter, as well as the Kirker earnout reversal of $14.5 million last year, consumer segment EBIT decreased 0.8% to $251.6 million from $253.7 million a year ago.\n\u201cDuring fiscal 2017, we completed nine acquisitions with annualized sales of approximately $220.0 million, which we expect to add $0.10 per share in incremental EPS in fiscal 2018. Also, in fiscal 2017, we took steps to reduce overall operating expenses and expect those actions to generate a net $0.10 per share increase in EPS in fiscal 2018. There also were several items that we incurred in our fiscal 2017 third quarter that are not expected to repeat in fiscal 2018. They were the Restore product line impairment charge of $0.03 per share, the European facility closure of $0.02 per share and higher acquisition-related expenses of $0.03 per share,\u201d Sullivan stated.\n\u201cLooking to fiscal 2018, we expect the industrial segment to benefit from steady economic activity in the North American commercial construction industry, combined with improving results in Europe. Therefore, we expect this segment to grow sales in the low-to-mid-single-digit range during fiscal 2018.\n\u201cIn the specialty segment, we expect low-single-digit growth driven by fiscal 2017 acquisitions and organic growth led by our fluorescent pigment and wood treatment businesses. Partially offsetting positive results in the specialty segment in fiscal 2018 will be lost sales in our edible coatings business due to a patent expiration.\n\u201cIn the consumer segment, we are expecting mid-single-digit growth due to meaningful contributions from fiscal 2017 acquisitions, favorable market conditions, along with new product introductions, market penetration and a stabilization of the Kirker business.\n\u201cBased upon the growth expectations above, we anticipate earnings per share for fiscal 2018 to be in the range of $2.85 to $2.95 per share. Throughout the year, it will be important to keep in mind the variability of our year-over-year quarterly comparisons, in particular, our tax rate is estimated to be in line with fiscal 2017, but may fluctuate quarter-to-quarter. Related to this, in the first quarter of last year we had a very favorable tax adjustment, which is not expected to repeat, and which will negatively impact the first quarter of fiscal 2018 by approximately $0.03 per share. As outlined above, in the fiscal 2017 third quarter we identified, but did not adjust out, roughly $0.08 per share of non-operating, one-time items. These items should be added back to the fiscal 2017 base results for our fiscal 2018 third quarter. Given the higher-than-normal tax rate in the fiscal 2017 fourth quarter, we would anticipate $0.05 per share benefit in the fiscal 2018 fourth quarter.\n\u201cFor the first quarter of fiscal 2018, in addition to the higher tax rate mentioned above, we expect higher raw material costs experienced in the fourth quarter to continue through the first quarter, as well as continued foreign currency headwinds, both translational and transactional. Also, most of our operating groups were on plan in the first quarter of fiscal 2017, before their results began to weaken, and our Brazilian operation benefited in the first quarter last year when Brazil hosted the summer Olympics. As a result, our EPS estimate for the first quarter of fiscal 2018 is $0.83 per share to $0.85 per share.\n\u201cAs we look to the balance of the 2018 fiscal year, raw material availability issues are improving and our announced price increase actions are beginning to take hold. Additionally, we expect that foreign exchange for the last three quarters of the fiscal year will be neutral or slightly positive to our results, unlike the significant negative impact it has had over the last three fiscal years. Based upon recent cost-cutting actions and our communicated expectations for the new fiscal year, we look forward to generating solid industry-leading organic sales growth and a return to double-digit earnings growth in the 12% to 15% range,\u201d stated Sullivan.\nManagement will host a conference call to discuss the results beginning at 10:00 a.m. EDT today. The call can be accessed by dialing 888-771-4371 or 847-585-4405 for international callers. Participants are asked to call the assigned number approximately 10 minutes before the conference call begins. The call, which will last approximately one hour, will be open to the public, but only financial analysts will be permitted to ask questions. The media and all other participants will be in a listen-only mode. The call may also be accessed via the RPM website at www.RPMinc.com.\nTo supplement the financial information presented in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States (\u201cGAAP\u201d) in this earnings release, we use EBIT, a non-GAAP financial measure. EBIT is defined as earnings (loss) before interest and taxes. We evaluate the profit performance of our segments based on income before income taxes, but also look to EBIT as a performance evaluation measure because interest expense is essentially related to acquisitions, as opposed to segment operations. For that reason, we believe EBIT is also useful to investors as a metric in their investment decisions. EBIT should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than, income before income taxes as determined in accordance with GAAP, since EBIT omits the impact of interest in determining operating performance, which represent items necessary to our continued operations, given our level of indebtedness. Nonetheless, EBIT is a key measure expected by and useful to our fixed income investors, rating agencies and the banking community all of whom believe, and we concur, that this measure is critical to the capital markets' analysis of our segments' core operating performance. We also evaluate EBIT because it is clear that movements in EBIT impact our ability to attract financing. Our underwriters and bankers consistently require inclusion of this measure in offering memoranda in conjunction with any debt underwriting or bank financing. EBIT may not be indicative of our historical operating results, nor is it meant to be predictive of potential future results. See the last page of this earnings release for reconciliations of EBIT and Adjusted EBIT to income before income taxes and adjusted Earnings Per Share to Earnings Per Share.

        "raw_content": "What is cancer of the oral cavity?\nMesial impaction: The tooth angled from too far towards the front of the mouth. It is one of the most common types of impact.\nVertical impaction: These teeth come fairly straight however, there is not enough room in mouth to accommodate it.\nHorizontal impaction: Teeth impacted horizontally by lying on their side.\nDistal impaction: Distally impacted teeth that are titled to the back of the mouth.\nSoft tissue impaction: It occurs when the tooth gets erupted through the gums.\nBony impaction: When your tooth is completely within the bone.\nOther types of cancers of the mouth include:\nBasal cell carcinoma mainly manifested on the upper lip;\nMelanoma, a skin cancer that originates in the cells producing the pigment in the oral mucosa;\nThe adenocarcinoma that affects the salivary glands;\nLymphoma;\nSarcoma of the bones and soft tissues of the oral cavity;\nTeratoma;\nOthers include very rare malignancies.\nOral cancer is actually a part of the family of cancers of the head and neck, also called cancers of the upper aerodigestive pathways. It is characterized by the appearance, development, and spread of abnormal cells in the oral cavity. It mainly affects the following regions and structures:\nThe inside of the mouth, including the tongue, the mucosa lining - the inside of the cheeks, the buccal floor (under the tongue), the buccal ceiling (hard palate) and the soft palate;\nThe gums;\nThe upper and lower lips;\nThe salivary glands;\nThe tonsils;\nThe throat or pharynx\nCommon causes of Oral Cancer\nAlone, tobacco and alcohol would be about the leaders three-quarters (75%), cases of oral cancer and pharynx (throat). These are the most important factors and also those that can be relatively easily controlled.\nConsequences of oral cance\nOral cancer remains unknown today. However, people who are afflicted can never forget it, because it touches a region of the body, the mouth, which is frequently used, either to eat, to talk. Cancer of the mouth can therefore considerably reduce the quality of life of the person who suffers from it because it often brings its share of problems according to the affected part of the mouth.\nAmong the issues directly related to cancer, there is dry mouth, the pain or discomfort during chewing, swallowing and speech and even the alteration or total loss of taste and even smell.\nSome problems are rather secondary, being a discomfort to appear in public or to communicate with others in the case where external anatomical structures are affected by cancer. In the most distressing cases, some cancer patients may suffer significant financial losses if cancer causes them to leave their jobs or retire early.\nIf a lesion turns out to be cancerous, the radiotherapy, chemotherapy and oncology surgery can be attempted to eliminate cancer (in case it is detected early) or to decrease the size of the tumor sufficiently to prolong the life of the patient (in case the cancer is detected at an advanced stage of the disease). Oral Cancer Treatment cost depends on the patient's state of health, where the tumor is located, method of treatment and the cancer stage. It should be noted that combinations of radiotherapy and chemotherapy or surgery and complementary radiotherapy are used more for the advanced stages of oral cancer and that chemotherapy alone is a rarely considered as a treatment for this type of cancer.\nDepending on the patient's oral health, Oral Cancer Clinic in Bangalore may perform some procedures before radiotherapy treatments, such as the extraction of irrecoverable teeth, repair of defective fillings, endodontic treatment, restoration of damaged teeth, fluoridation teeth, etc. A close partnership between the treating dentist and the radiation oncologist who administers radiotherapy treatments must then be established quickly to minimize the side effects of treatments while attempting to preserve as many oral structures as possible in the process.",

But we're also connected to those Indians who aren't even born yet, who are going to walk this earth. And our job in the middle is to bridge that gap. You take the inheritance from the past, you add to it, your ideas and your thinking, and you bundle it up and shoot it to the future. And there is a different kind of responsibility. That is not just about me, my pride and my ego, it's about all that other stuff. We inherit a duty, we inherit a responsibility. And that's pretty well drummed into our heads. Don't just come here expecting to benefit. You come here to work hard so that the future can enjoy that benefit.\"\nRick Hill Sr. (Tuscarora)\nChair, Haudenosaunee Stabding Committee on NAGPRA\nThe Seventh Generation philosophy is integral to Haudenosaunee life. It intensifies the bond of community, promotes stability, and provides concrete values with which each person can test his or her everyday actions. Although the Haudenosaunee practice ancient traditions, their culture is not frozen in the past. Their ability to adapt to dramatic change and survive on their own terms is historically proven, but they are equally focused on the security of future generations.\n\"The Peacemaker taught us about the Seven Generations. He said, when you sit in council for the welfare of the people, you must not think of yourself or of your family, not even of your generation. He said, make your decisions on behalf of the seven generations coming, so that they may enjoy what you have today.\"\nOren Lyons (Seneca)\nFaithkeeper, Onondaga Nation\n\"We really do see ourselves as part of a community, the immediate community, the Native American community, but part of your nation and the Confederacy. And if you have been given responsibilities within that structure, you must really attend to those responsibilities. You start to think in terms of the people who come after me. Those faces that are coming from beneath the earth that are yet unborn, is the way we refer to that. They are going to need the same things that we have found here, they would like the earth to be as it is now, or a little better.\nEverything that we have now is the result of our ancestors who handed forth to us our language, the preservation of the land, our way of life and the songs and dances. So now we will maintain those and carry those on for future generations.\"\nFaithkeeper, Cattaraugus Reservation\nThe Haudenosaunee say that their chiefs \"hold the law, the people and the religion in the palm of their hand, and it is their sacred trust and duty to assure the safety of all that for the generations to come.\"\nIn American society, the term \"chief\" is evocative of the concepts of \"executive,\" \"power,\" and perhaps \"control,\" but that is not true within Haudenosaunee culture. Their chiefs are called \"Hoyaneh\" meaning \"Caretakers of the Peace.\" Traditionally they are male leaders chosen to be the \"voice\" of their clan in council meetings. Each nation and each clan within the Confederacy may have a different number of chiefs, but all of the Hoyaneh have the same power and authority. Despite long-standing misconceptions, there is no such thing as a \"head\" chief or \"head\" Sachem in Haudenosaunee culture.\nA Haudenosaunee chief is still condoled or installed in ancient tradition, and must accept his duties for the rest of his life. Those responsibilities have not changed since Ely Parker received his instructions in 1851: \"The thickness of your skin shall be seven spans - which is to say that you shall be proof against anger, offensive actions and criticism. Your heart shall be filled with peace and good will and your mind filled with a yearning for the welfare of the people of the Confederacy. With endless patience you shall carry out your duty and your firmness shall be tempered with tenderness for your people. Neither anger nor fury shall find lodgment in your mind and all your actions and words shall be marked with calm deliberation.\"\nParker, Col.

Tears make a bitter throat. Look ahead, there is more work to do.\" With his Wall Street fortunes lost, Ely Parker simply moved on. He tried to reenter engineering, but found his skills were out of date. \"The profession ran away from me,\" Parker wrote. \"Young men were wanted for their activity, and the old men were discarded.\"\nIn 1876, Parker finally found a steady job as a desk clerk with the New York City Police Department. It was his final career, one with little responsibility and very modest pay, but while in New York Parker joined veterans' organizations and for a time revived his career as a public speaker. When Minnie Parker gave birth to the couple's only child, Maud, in 1878, Ely became a devoted father.\nThen another woman entered Parker's life: a poet and student of the Haudenosaunee named Harriet Maxwell Converse. Their deep friendship and Converse's gentle questions revived Parker's interest in his traditional culture. He began to question his life's path, and to assess the price of walking in two worlds. Although he regretted many of his actions, Do-Ne-Ho-Ga-Wa-'s spirit was rekindled.\nParker spent his last years on earth battling kidney disease, diabetes, and a serious of strokes. In 1895, he went to bed early and died in his sleep.\nThe Haudenosaunee see all of life as a circle, and in death, Ely Parker returned to his beginnings. In 1897 his body was re-interred in Seneca homelands in western New York, next to the grave of the Seneca orator Red Jacket. And with that, the last element of his mother's prophetic dream was fulfilled. The circle was complete. Parker, Col. Ely Samuel (I51858)\n56 The Era of \"Robin's Nest\"\nEly Parker was 43 years old when he left Washington D.C. for the last time. He was emotionally and physically drained by the months of scandal, and spent some time rebuilding his strength in a New Jersey spa. His future was uncertain: Parker was through with politics and would not return to live at Tonawanda. Fortunately, Minnie Parker stepped forward with a plan, a destination, and -- as it turned out -- a whole new career for the former Indian Commissioner.\n\"Seeing the disappointment in Ely's face, knowing he had been disgraced in front of his friends, Minnie decided to take him away from politics and Washington society. And they went to Fairfield, Connecticut where she had family and friends, and where Ely would have opportunities for a fresh start.\"\nJare Cardinal\nRobin's Nest, Fairfiled, Connecticut\nRobin's Nest, Fairfield, Connecticut\nThey called their new home \"Robin's Nest,\" and it was the setting for some of the couple's happier years. The Parker's three-acre homestead was nestled among wealthy neighbors. Oliver Burr Jennings lived next door; he was a brother-in-law to William Rockefeller, and a stockholder and director in Standard Oil. It may have been Jennings who mentored Parker's new interest in Wall Street investments.\n\"There are accounts of Parker commuting into New York City, which many people did from Fairfield. There are other stories of his investments into various other businesses. There really is very little documentation of this period of his life. What is clear is that he made a great deal of money.\"\nParker Biographer\nParker relaxed into his life as a wealthy businessman; New York City and Wall Street dominated his daytime hours, and at night he was one of many husbands greeted at the train station by \"the female contingent in stylish vehicles and becoming apparel.\" The Parkers were warmly welcomed into Fairfield society; Minnie was a popular hostess, and Ely gained a reputation for his unparalleled wine cellar and his skill as a billiards player. For almost five years, the Parkers enjoyed the best of everything -- the finest carriage and horses, a house full of servants -- and it is said that Ely even had hired a \"Negro bodyguard.\"\nIn 1873, Ely's fortunes began to evaporate; first with the failure of Jay Cooke and Company, then the collapse of the Freedman's Bank. Those disasters were followed by the failure of an insurance company and the folding of a publishing venture. The Parkers were able to keep their Fairfield home, but by 1876, finances forced Ely to look for basic employment. His business career had ended -- he would have to start his life all over again. Parker, Col. Ely Samuel (I51858)\n57 The Rift Widens\nWhile still a Civil War soldier, Ely Parker wrote his brother that he proposed \"by and by to come home and settle down once more on my farm, and go to work as all honest men do. I want you to lay up in your mind the conviction that I am coming home again to gladden by my presence the heart of such relations and friends as think well of me.\" But Ely would never return to live at Tonawanda. When the war ended, he followed Grant to Washington. A newspaper report noted his presence for the review of troops on May 26, 1865: \"Beside General Grant is a huge Colonel, dusky-faced, and with such high cheekbones that we recognize him at once for an aboriginal. He is one of Grant's favored aides, and has so intensely imbibed the spirit of the North, that a few days ago he said: \"You white men are Christians, and may forgive the murder (of President Abraham Lincoln) I am of a race which never forgives the murder of a friend.\"\"\nEly Parker had spent a great deal of time with Abraham Lincoln at General Grant's Union headquarters at City Point, Virginia. The President would often sit by Parker and go over telegrams as they came in, updating the war's progress. Parker said he and Lincoln had numerous conversations about federal Indian policies, and their acquaintance was strong enough that after Appomattox, he went to the White House to show Lincoln his Red Jacket medal. Ely was one of the last to see the President alive. His visit was on Good Friday, the same day Lincoln was shot while attending a play at Ford's Theatre.\nParker remained in the nation's capital, assisting in the administration of the post-war demobilization. Grant had him transferred from the Volunteers into the regular Army and through a series of brevets he became a Brigadier General. Parker was also called upon to exercise his knowledge in Indian affairs. In 1865, he was part of a commission sent to meet with native nations that had allied themselves with the Confederacy. In 1866, he aided in the investigation of the Fetterman massacre, in which 81 U.S. soldiers were ambushed and killed outside Fort Phil Kearney by Lakota, Cheyenne, and Arapaho Indians. Parker concluded that the commander of the fort had exercised little discipline with his garrison, and had taken few precautions against Indian hostilities. He faulted Fetterman for disobeying orders, and his commander for not sending reinforcements until it was too late. Parker further stated that the hostile Sioux (Lakota) \"will not come to terms and they should be promptly and severely punished.\" As federal \"peace\" commissioners approached meetings with the Brule and Ogalala Sioux, they tapped Parker to speak for them. He introduced himself to the 2,500 Indians present as the spokesman for their \"great grandfather, the President of the United States,\" who was \"sick in his mind\" by the Indian warfare. In remarks recorded by the New York Herald, Parker said President Johnson \"would like to have all the Indians live together as good neighbors, but to do this, they must have a permanent home. They must have a place where the white man will not disturb or molest them.\"\nAt the same time Ely's diplomatic efforts were winning praise in Washington, his rift with the Tonawanda Senecas was widening. In a letter to his brother Nic, Parker said he was tired of the Tonawandas' \"unending whims and imaginary troubles. I could without expense to my people attend to their necessary business. If however, they prefer to have it their own way, I shall not complain or interfere. You know that our family has always been grossly maligned by the Indians, and I for one want to give them as little cause as possible for doing so.\"\n\"Ely Parker knew he was resented. They (the Senecas) didn't like his elevation as a Sachem and they didn't like his elevation as an academic. And while they had a great appreciation of his war exploits, that wasn't sufficient to undermine the jealousies. In the letter to Nic, he tells him that he's the person that Grant and the administration -- all the administration -- consult about American Indian affairs. And when it comes to Tonawanda and Iroquois matters, he's the consultant. He explains to Nic that every question, whether it's a new church bell or a steeple or an improvement or an increase in annuities, comes to him for decision. And whatever he decides is government policy. But he says to his brother, don't tell any Indians that, they are too ignorant to understand what I am doing. That's his word: \"ignorant. What does he mean by ignorant? He means physically, these people do not understand the world that he's moving in, and moving in still for them. They simply have no capacity to understand where he's at or what he's doing. They don't speak English; remember, as late as his death (1895) two-thirds of Seneca people did not write or read English. A substantial portion, probably over half, didn't speak English. There's no way they could literally know what he is doing, or appreciate it. That's what he meant by ignorant. Their worlds were separate, and he was on the other side of a world that the great majority of his people had not crossed into.\nAnd certainly in terms of his own people he got above himself. Why? Because he was a person of enormous talent, and people recognized and fostered that talent, they appreciated it. They supported it, educationally, materially, emotionally. They kept telling him how great he was. They knew he was great and they said he was great. His whole life people came to up to him and said, you're a great man. This is not a diet that leads to humility or modesty in a people in which leaders were supposed to be modest; more modest than other people. And were supposed to be poorer than other people. In which people are not supposed to get above themselves. Yes, he's a tall tree. He's one of the Sachems, but all of the tall trees are supposed to be of equal height. He's gotten in terms of his own people, an over-swelled head of no small proportions and that's traditionally resented, as well as personally a subject of jealousy.\"\nStephen Saunders Webb, Ph.D.\nThe breach with the Tonawandas widened in 1867, when Ely married Minnie Orton Sackett. He was 39, she was an 18-year-old white woman, a capital city belle. Traditional Haudenosaunee oppose interracial marriages because cultural descent is matriarchal. By marrying a white woman, Parker disenfranchised any children he may have had from ever being enrolled as a Seneca.\nWashington society was also taken aback by the union. Ely and Minnie had to endure disapproving stares and racist comments printed in capital papers. Yet none of that impaired Parker's political ascension; in 1869, Ulysses S. Grant was sworn in as President of the United States, and one of his first acts was to appoint Ely S. Parker as Commissioner of Indian Affairs.\n\"No Native American had ever held that position before. It was brand new. But it was well-received. The Senate without hesitation confirmed it.\"\n\"As Commissioner of Indian Affairs, first of all he continued the program that he had laid out to Grant and to Lincoln at the Army Headquarters in City Point in 1864 and '65, first of all the Peace Policy. A policy of moving from military extermination of Native people, to establishing peace with them.\"\n\"I believe that his politics are right, that if you fulfill your promises to Indians, you deliver the treaty goods, you deliver food, the services you promise, you won't have a war with Indians. A lot of people don't realize that's what it was about back then.\"\nChair: Haudenosaunee Standing Committee on NAGPRA\n\"His idea was, let's put these people on reservations, they're in a controlled space. But it was important not only to put them in this controlled space, but let's educate them. Let's teach them the things they need to know in order to survive and move into the next century.\"\n\"He said that the way for Indians to survive was to become humanized. What was it that he didn't see in us that was human? Become civilized; how come he didn't think we were good enough as we were. And then ultimately to become Christianized. Now those were the things that he said were standard Indian policy. All the reformers believed that. I think in one sense Parker was saying that because he thought that was what the white man wanted to hear.\"\nWhen Parker took office, the so-called Indian Wars were at crisis levels; in 1868 it was estimated that they cost the U.S. government one million dollars per Indian killed. Western Indian nations were trying to defend their homelands against a tidal wave of white settlers drawn to the frontier by the discovery of gold, a new transcontinental railroad, and the Homestead Act. Parker's goal was simple: peace at all costs, and his philosophy and policies were outlined in his first Commissioner's report of 1869. Although his efforts slowed the pace of the wars, Parker incited controversy with an 1870 show of force. A Piegan Band of Blackfeet Indians had robbed and killed white settlers and Parker sent the information on to the War Department with a request that prompt measures be taken. U.S. troops headed to Montana led by an Army Colonel and Civil War veteran named Eugene Baker.\n\"And about 170 men, women and children were killed, at a time when this particular town of Piegan people had tried to signal to the attacking United States forces that they were neutral, they were pro-United States, they were not enemies. But Baker continued to fire into their town and they slaughtered all of these people. It was such and atrocity that Congress investigated it. And during that investigation, because of this loyalty that had developed during the Civil War, Ely Parker sided with Colonel Baker. He said that it was the Indians' fault, they had brought it on themselves.\"\nRobert W. Venables, Ph.D.\nSenior Lecturer, American Indian Studies\n\"You can look at Parker's years as Commissioner in two ways: Ely was using his abilities and powers to do what he thought best to help stop the wars, to help Indians out west adapt to change. But if you look at Ely Parker from the standpoint of the Senecas, and perhaps the Indian nations in confusion out west, he was a traitor. He was no longer a cultural bridge. He was someone who had accepted white society and the values of white society as being all important, all encompassing and he had forgotten who he was. He was not someone you could rely on to help you survive into the future.\"\nRochester Museum & Science Center Parker, Col. Ely Samuel (I51858)\n58 Two Row Wampum: Symbol of Sovereignty; Metaphor for Life\nTwo Row Wampum Belt\nThe Two Row Wampum Belt is central to Haudenosaunee culture. It is called the \"Gaswehntha,\" and is a visual record of the very first treaty made with 17th century Europeans. Its oral history has been preserved for centuries. Ely Parker probably heard it while still a youth at Tonawanda. The Two Row Wampum Belt defines Haudenosaunee status with the outside world as sovereign - separate but equal. That principle is represented on the belt as two lines of purple on a field of white.\n\"The purple lines represent the Haudenosaunee travelling in their canoe. Parallel to them, but not touching, is the path of the boat of the Europeans that came here.\nIn our canoe is our way of life, our language, our law and our customs and traditions. And in the boat, likewise, are the European language, customs, traditions, and law. We have said, \"Please don't get out of your boat and try to steer our canoe. And we won't get out of our canoe and try to steer your boat.\" We're going to accept each other as sovereign - we're going to travel down the river of life together, side by side.\"\nFaithkeeper, Cattaraugus Reservation,\nThere is another level to the Two Row interpretation, a warning against cultural seductions, and the perils of walking in two worlds. Even as they formed the 17th century treaty with the Europeans, Haudenosaunee leaders knew that some of their people would leave the canoe to ride the white man's boat. And some white men would join the Six Nations, but the ones in most danger were those who had one foot in each - the \"two-minded person\" who tried to balance astride canoe and boat. The warning could have been written for Ely Parker.\n\"The chiefs said that some time in the future, a big wind would come and blow the two vessels apart. And those standing with one foot in the boat and one in the canoe would fall into the river of life, and no power this side of the creation could save them.\"\n\"Because of the way that I live and the things that I do to make a living, I'm always asking myself, which line am I walking on? Is it the old Indian line or is it the white man's line? Oftentimes I feel like I'm jumping back and forth between the two. So I look at Ely Parker and I figure he had to ask himself the same questions: who do I want to be? What kind of Indian do I want to be? How am I going to work for the people? What vision do I have for us? So I'm constantly using him for my own personal metaphor to remind myself: don't go too far, be careful what you do, and remember those underlying values. That's what the work's all about, and when you forget those underlying values, it begins to fall apart quickly.\nAt the same time I use him as a metaphor to say, well, sometimes you strike out, but you have to get back up! When I think about Parker, he learned a valuable lesson, but the betrayal of it was that he just got mad and went off to Connecticut, rather than come back here and say, \"Okay, now that I know the other side, now I know how they think, I'm back here to use that old Seneca mentality for the fight - do it again, but do it better!\" And that was the frustrating part of it for me in looking at his life, was that he gave up. We can't give up on our communities. If everyone did what Parker did, then we wouldn't have anything today.\"\nChair, Haudenosaunee Standing Committee on NAGPRA\n59 Willis And Dorothy Sackett\n\u00abtab\u00bbCelebrated their 60th wedding anniversay on Feb. 2,2008. They were united in marriage on Jan. 31,1948 in Anamosa, Iowa. They had ten children, 21 grandchildren, and nine great- grandchildren. Willis (known as Bill) also is celebrating his 95th birthday on Feb. 9th. Willis is the son of Mathew Dunham Jr. and Bertha Sackett. - [Robert Sackett] Sackett, Willis Alden (I15755)\n60 X Ackley Sackett's 2nd wife was Edith Fetterly. They had a son, Butler Thomas Sackett, born 25 Apr 1912 in Newark, Essex, New Jersey. Evidently X Ackley and Edith separated following the birth of their son. In 1920 Edith was enumerated as Edith Sackett, married, in the household of her Aunt, Maria Fisher. It appears Edith Sackett was in a hospital for the insane in 1930.\nHarry's son, Robert Sackett, says that following an appearance of X Ackley Sackett on October 18, 1913 in Frederick, Maryland \"Henry came home to find their child on the bed next to a bottle of sleeping pills, and Edith was not there. My guess is she probably went back home to Pennsylvania where her uncle and aunt lived. In her defense, I think it is safe to say that Henry was not an easy man to settle down with. Ironic that Henry, who probably left a spouse to raise children on her own, is left with a child to raise on his own.\"\n\"I speculate that Henry and his child then go back to Michigan for a time, where he still has friends and relatives. On December 3, 1914, the Rev. George P.T Sargent at the Grace Episcopal Church of Grand Rapids, baptizes the child with the name Henry Ackley Sackett Jr. His father would always call him \"Buddy.\" We know him better as Harry.\"\n\"He traveled the country as a child with his father, Henry (X) Ackley Sackett. He appears in the clown suit at age eight in 1920 as a toy demonstrator. The outfit was made by X. Ackley himself. They were in Michigan in 1923 when they visited X. Ackley's cousins. Young Harry worked as a page boy at the Hotel Fresno in 1924/5 and there is a picture attached from that time. This is very much how Harry would have appeared when he is separated from his father a few months later in Portland, OR. Harry, at thirteen, was in the custody of the Public Welfare Bureau and the plan was for him to ship out with the Merchant Marine. As I understand it, a women at the Bureau saw some promise in Harry, and had a sister in Marshfield,OR whose married name was Anna Huggins. Henry and Anna Huggins take Harry in on what may have been a temporary basis. They write to X. Ackley's cousins to get their opinion of young Harry. They write back, from White Cloud, Michigan, March 23, 1926:\n\"We all thought Henry Ackley Sackett Jr. a bright, keen boy, whom his father dearly loved. He would be greatly relieved and pleased to know that his son has found friends and can have a good steady home and a chance for an education. I truly hope you will keep him and that he will appreciate his chance for a good life before him, and be worthy of your efforts to befriend him.\"\n\"Keep him they do. The Huggins appear in the 1930 Census, and seventeen year old Harry is listed as a lodger.\"\nFollowing his graduation from high school, in 1934, Harry entered Walla Walla College in South East, Washington.

His life history most happily illustrates what may be attained by faithful and continued effort in carrying out an honest purpose. Integrity, activity and energy have been the crowning points in his career and have led to desirable and creditable success. His connection with agricultural and business interests has been of decided advantage to Antrim county, promoting its welfare along these various lines in no uncertain manner.\nOliver B. Sackett is a native of Chenango county, New York, where he was born on the 25th of May, 1844. He is the son of Oliver and Esther (Wing) Sackett, the father having been born in Massachusetts and the mother in New York state. Oliver Sackett, who was a soldier in the war of 1812, followed the dual pursuits of a miller and stone mason and spent nearly all of his years in the Empire state, where he died. He was the father of twelve children, of whom ten are now living. The subject of this sketch attended the common schools of his native state and succeeded in acquiring a fair and practical knowledge of the common branches taught in the common schools, which has been liberally supplemented through his subsequent years by habits of close reading and observation. In 1871 Mr. Sackett came to Antrim county, locating in Forest Home township and has lived in this section ever since. He has devoted a large share of his time to the butchering business and for a number of years ran a successful meat business at Elk Rapids. He also was employed about a year in a wagon factory at Traverse City, acquiring a good working knowledge of that business. Aside from these enterprises Mr. Sackett has devoted his main attention to agricultural pursuits, in which he has attained to a definite success. His home place comprises ten acres of land, of which all is under the plow, and in addition to cultivating the soil, he has found a profitable source of income in fruit raising. He has one hundred and four pear trees, one hundred plum trees, three hundred and twenty apple trees and thirty-five cherry trees and a large number of other fruit trees as well as several hundred berry bushes, all in good condition and bearing heavily. He has by dint of persistent industry and intelligent attention to the details of his business been enabled to realize a gratifying income from his operations. Mr. Sackett is a staunch and uncompromising Republican in his political attitude and has been honored by election to several public office.-, having served as constable of his township for four years, for six years as pathmaster and also as member of the school board. He takes a deep interest in the educational welfare of his township and has done all in his power to advance his community's best interests materially, morally and educationally. Religiously he is a member of the Methodist Episcopal church and takes a deep interest in the departments of church work, having served for several years\nas superintendent of the Sunday school and in other ways has contributed his time and means to advance the best interests of society. When Mr. Sackett first came to Michigan he did not possess a dollar and made his first money by cutting cord wood. From this humble position he has advanced step by step up the ladder of success and today no man in the township is more highly esteemed nor holds a more influential position among his fellow men than does Oliver B. Sackett.\nIn 1873 he was united in marriage to Miss Matilda M. Anderson, to which union were born four children, Lizzie, Alice, Andrew and Tillie. Mrs. Matilda Sackett died and the subject was subsequently married to Eva Abblett, this union being blessed by the birth of one child, Pearle Maude.\nAs a business man Mr. Sackett has been conspicuous among his associates, not only for his success, but for his reputation in fairness and honorable methods. In everything he has been eminently practical and this has been manifested not only in his business undertakings but also in social and private life. He was a member and corporal for seven years in the New York state militia, from which he has an honorable discharge.\nInformation for Oliver Benjamin Sackett, his wife and descendants is from the GED of Polly Barnes posted on RootsWeb's World Connect. -[Thurmon King]\n1870 Union, Broome, New York, roll #907, page 492a\nSackett, Oliver, age 26, Works on farm, born New York\n1880 Census; Traverse City, Grand Traverse, Michigan\nFilm T9-0578 Page 458D\nOliver B.

F. Bowen & Company; 1905; Page 99\nW. S. Eggleston is a native of Broome county, New York, where he was born in 1869 and is the son of Lorenzo and Esther (Sackett) Eggleston. The subject's father was a native also of Broome county, New York, and was a mason by trade, remaining in his native state until 1878, when he came to Antrim county, settling in the woods of Forest Home township, where he bought forty acres of land and began the task of clearing a farm. He was the father of three children, the subject of this sketch being the eldest. The other children were Letta, the wife of Arthur Russell, who is working a band sawmill at Bellaire; and John, who remains at home engaged on his father's farm.\nW. S. Eggleston was given the benefit of a fair common-school education, but his acquisition of knowledge did not cease with his school days, as he has all his life been a persistent reader, embracing a wide variety of topics, and has thus become a well informed and intelligent gentleman. He has pursued the occupation of farming and lumbering all his life and is today the owner of one hundred acres of as good land as can be found in Antrim county, fifty of which are under the plow and which were cleared entirely by Mr. Eggleston's own efforts. In addition to this property, he is the possessor of several town lots in Bellaire and one good residence. On his farm he raises all the crops common to this section of Michigan and has achieved a marked and definite success in his calling, a success which may be credited entirely to his own efforts, directed and controlled by wise judgment and keen discrimination. He gives some attention to live stock, raising grade cattle and Chester White hogs and has also an orchard of six acres, in which he raises some choice varieties of fruit. During the winter of 1903-4 Mr. Eggleston cleared the timber from section 23, this township, taking from it one and one-half million feet of timber, and has run a lumber camp for two years. He is energetic in all of his undertakings and his efforts have been rewarded with a due measure of success.\nIn politics Mr. Eggleston is a firm Republican and exerts much influence for the success of his party and has filled the position of overceer of district No. 5 of his township for many years, but aside from this he will not accept further political favors. Fraternally he is a member of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows and its auxiliary branch, the Daughters of Rebekah, and is also a member of the Knights of Maccabees at Bellaire and the Grange at Clam Lake, this state.\nOn the nth of August, 1903, Mr. Eggleston was united in the holy bonds of wedlock to Miss Josie Hill, daughter of Ruben and Eliza (Downs) Hill. To this union has been born one child, Ruben L.\nEarnest labor, unabating perseverance and management and a laudable ambition- these are the elements which have brought Mr. Eggleston to prosperity. His career has ever been such as to warrant the trust and confidence of his acquaintances, for he has ever conducted all transactions according to the strictest principles of honor and integrity. Mr. and Mrs. Eggleston are active members of the Methodist Episcopal church in Bellaire.\nWilson EGGELSTON Son M S W 11 NY NY NY\nhttp://www.online-isp.com/~maggie/antrim/belcemaf.htm\nLAKEVIEW CEMETERY; BELLAIRE, MICHIGAN\nLAST NAME / FIRST NAME / BIRTH / DEATH / LOT #\nEggleston, Wilson 1868 1954 Eggleston, Wilson S.

Kingman\nJAMES MC MASTER.\nJames McMaster was the second white man to settle permanently at Owego. He first came here as a soldier in Gen. Sullivan's army in 1779, and made his permanent settlement here in 1788, the year following the coming of the Drapers.\nIt is erroneously stated by judge Charles P. Avery in his \"Susquehanna Valley\" papers in the \"St. Nicholas\" magazine (page 303) that James McMaster's knowledge of the general character of the valley was acquired while a soldier in the army of Gen. Clenton on its way down the Susquehanna river to meet Gen. Sullivan's forces. This error has been copied in all the local histories since written.\nAt the time judge Avery wrote his papers the military records of this state had not been printed. McMaster had been dead thirty-five years and judge Avery's informatioin seems to have been obtained from some of his descendants whose knowledge was traditional and uncertain.\nIn \"New York in the Revolution,\" a large waurto volume compiled from state records and published at Albany in 1879 by James A. Roberts, then Comptroller of this state, a full list of the officers and men of the various New York regiments, taken\nfrom the records, was published. In 1898, a second and more complete edition of the book was published by Mr. Roberts.\nOn page 29 of the second edition is the roster of the Second New York regiment commanded by Col. Philip Van Cortlandt, and on page 35 James McMaster's name appears as a private in this regiment.\nOn page 342 of the book on the \"Military Expedition of Major-General John Sullivan against the Six Nations of Indians in 1779,\" compiled by Frederick Cook, Secretary of State and published in 1887, are given lists of the regiments in both Clinton's and Sullivan's armies in this expedition, and the Second regiment is among those in the army of Sullivan. On page 327 of the same book a list of the officers of the Second regiment is also given.\nIt appears plain that McMaster was in Gen. Sullivan's army instead of Clinton's.\nJames McMaster was a farmer. When he came to Owego with Sullivan's army in the summer of 1779 the flat land east of the Owego creek seemed so desirable for farming purposes that he determined to settle here.\nIn 1784 he was living on a farm owned jointly by himself and his brother, David McMaster, in Florida, Montgomery county, about fourteen miles abouve Schenectady and a mile and a half from the Mohawk river. In April of that year he and another brother, Robert McMaster, in company with William Woods and John Nealy, and with William Taylor, a\nboy of eight years old, who had been indentured to James McMaster as a \"bound boy,\" started for Owego.\nThe previous winter a large boat had been obtained at Schenectady and taken thence to Canajoharie on the ice and from there to the bank of t he Ostego lake. There the boat was launched and a part of the party embarked with a wagon, provisions, plows, farming implements and cooking utensils, while another party went with fout horses by land, following the Indian trail to Owego. They met many parties of Indians on their way, who seemed peceably inclined, but met no white man.\nThey were fourteen days on their journey, arriving here in the first day of May, one party by boat down the river and the other by land. At night while on their way the boat was moored uniformly at some place on the river, previously appointed, and thus the whole party, as well for safety as for comfort, took their evening meals and passed their nights together.\nOn the flat west of what is now McMaster street there was but little forest, and the land had been cultivated some by the Indians. McMaster's party at once set fire to the dried grass, and burned over the entire surface of the ground, the falmes extending over the site of Owego and for a considerable distance beyond. They built a temporary cabin of pitch pine logs on the flat, about fifty rods above where\nthe elextric light plant now stands, which sheltered them until their corn planting was done on about ten acres in the vicinity of the present Talcott street.\nAfter the planting was commpleted they erected a more s ubstantial log house near the bank of the river on the lot where the residence of George W. Thompson now stands, and this was the first building erected for permanent use by the hands og white men in this portion of the Susquehanna valley.\nAfter the corn hoeing season was over the whole party returned with three of their horses and a quantity of beaver skins which they had received from the Indians in exchange for their fourth horse to the valley of the Mohawk, for the purpose of attending to their harvesting there. That having been accomplished they returned later and harvested their crop here, which had not been molested by the Indians, with whom they had established friendly relations. The crop was taken in boat loads to Tioga Point (Athens, Pa.) and securely cribbed, after which the party returned to the Mohawk valley for the winter.\nIn 1785, the year after the corn planting expedition, James McMaster returned to Owego. It was in June of that year that four agents of the Massachusetts purchase, a body of 230,400 acres of land lying between the Owebo creek and the Chenango river awarded to Massachusetts and since known as the Boston Purchase or Ten Townships, came here and found McMaster in possession. Mc-\nMaster claimed ownership of what was subsequently known as the McMaster half township, on which the village of Owego is now situated, by contract with the Indians, in which claim he was sustained by Amos Draper; and their influence was such with the Indians that in order to conciliate them and obtain possession the agents were compelled to satisfy McMaster's claim by giving him eighteen wquare miles of land extending from the Susquehanna river on the east side of the Owego creek eighteen miles north, and from the Owego creek on the north side of the river eastward, a distance of six miles. The particulars of this transaction are fully told in the \"Susquehanna Valley\" papers in the St. Nicholas magazine, page 301.\nJames McMaster did not settle permanently here until 1788. Then he and his family settled in a house which stood near where the main highway on the old Indian trail ran along the river bank at its intersection with the old Cayuga Lake trail which trail was identical with the present McMaster street and extended down to the river. This house faced the river and stood near where Michael A. Lynch's house now stands. The house was afterward occupied by Dr. Samuel Tinkahm and later by James Pumpelly.\nThe family of John McQuigg came the same year from Massachusetts.\nThe Lyman C. Draper, of Madison, Wis., secretary of the Wisconsin State historical society,\npurchased in 1876 of the heirs of the late judge Avery the manuscripts containing interviews with early residents of southern New York relative to the Indian history, much of which was used in wreiting the Susquehanna Valley papers. In a letter to the editor of this paper written in October of the following year Mr. Draper wrote that he had been for some time collecting material for a new life of Brant, the Indian chief, and that the Avery papers had been purchased with others to aid him in that purpose, but that these papers did not contain much concerning Brant, but more of the local history of this region. After Mr. Draper's death the papers became a part of the manuscript collection of the Wisconsin historical society. The following is a list of the more important of them:\nMrs. Whitaker's account of her captivity among the Indians (1778.)\nDances and other Ceremonies of the Iroquois: character of the Indians.\nMrs. Whitaker's reminiscnses of Brant and other chiefs.\nMemoirs of Sebastian Strope and his family.\nNarrative of Abel Hart.\nNarrative of Way-way alias Betsy Douglas.\nStatements of the following pioneers (accounts of their own or their parent's adventures): Jesse McQuigg, John Gee, Mrs Caty Harris, Lawrence Merriman, Jonathan Terry, Elisha Forsyth.\nMrs. Caty Harris, mention in the last paragraph, was a daughter of James McMaster. The Avery interview with her was a very brief\none, and the following is a verbation copy of it, as copied from the original in the Wisconsin historical society's collection:\nStatement of Mrs. Caty Harris.\nMaden name Caty McMaster, daughter of Jas.

They were peaceable and friendly as could be.\nMy mother, Rachel died 30 years ago in Candor, my father died in Candor. They are buried on the farm now owned by Hiram Smith, not enclosed.\nMy father was a tall man, not fleshy, large boned, about six feet high. He paid the Indians for their land. He held the council with them near where his house was. (The particulars of this treaty have never transpired. C. P. A.)\nI was born on the Mohawk. I have had 7 children.\nThese are my grandchildren. (Pointing to two boys.)\nMy father bult the house once occupied by Jas. Pumpelly.\nThe first house he built was near\nthe river and [pretty nearly back of the Pumpelly house.\nI believe my father was in the army under Genl. Clinton and came down the river. In that way I think he must have been acquainted with the valley of the river.\nAt the time of this interview Mrs. Harris lived in the town of Cayuta, Schuyler county. It was from this interview that Judge Avery, probably, obtained the misinformation that Mcamster was in Clinton's army. James McMaster's wife's name was Rachel. their children were as follows:\nJames McMaster, Jr.\nJeremiah McMaster. He married Hannah Hill, a daughter of John Hill, one of the first settlers of the town of Tioga. He died at Spencer. His death followed tha amputation of his leg on account of a fever sor. His daughter, Eliza McMaster, married Leonard Jones, who came from Peekskill, N. Y., with his father, John Jones, and settled at Spencer between 1800 and 1805. John B. Jones, who lives in East Temple street, Owego, is a son of Leonard Jones.\nDavid McMaster.\nJane McMaster. Married Col. Caleb H. Sackett and lived at Candor. She died near Almond, Allegany county.\nElida McMaster was unmarried. She died in 1843, aged 62 years. Her body was buried at West Candor.\nCatherine McMaster. Married James Harris, a blacksmith, who was born in the North of Ireland. they lived near VanEtten, Che-\nmung county. Both were buried at Spencer. She was 80 years old at the time of her death.\nAnn McMaster. Married a man named Fish. It is said that she died at the county poor house.\nJames McMaster was a man of improvident habits, and altough the owner of property that with judicious management would have made him immensely wealthy, it gradually passed from his hands and he died thirty years after his settlement here in reduced circumstances.\nOne day in 1818, while living at Candor, where his daughter, Mrs. Sackett, lived, he borrowed a horse of a neighbor to ride to Spencer to visite one on his sons. He had gone but a short distance when the horse shied and he was thrown to the ground, breaking his ribs. He was taken into Selah Gridley's house, where he died a few days afterwards. His body was buried in the Caleb Sackett farm. the grave was plowed over many years ago. The farm was subsequently cut up into village lots and this grave was on the back part of the lot on which Mrs Alvah Fuller's house now stands. McMaster, James (I28234)\nCol. Caleb H.

(I5288)\n97 \"Perhaps the first Methodist Church ever built in Christian County was the one built by the Hopkinsville \"Society\" on the lot recently owned by the late Ben. O. Welch, east of Railroad Street, between Market and Broad. We have no reocrd of the date when this society was organized, but the history of the church in Kentucky and Christian County makes it pretty sure that it was very early in the nineteenth century; for as early as 1809 Rev. Samuel H. Thompson had charge of the Christian Circuit, of which Hopkinsville was the principal preaching place, (\"Methodism in Kentucky, page 291), although the circuit is not mentioned in the general minutes of the church until 1811. The names of most if not all the ministers who had served this church prior to 1811 have already been given in the general remarks on the church in the county. In addition to these may be named Benjamin Harrison, Ezekiel Harrison, Jr., John Burgess, Joseph Williams, Henry Allen, RICHARD GAINES, James Nichols, Jesse Harrison (and perhaps Reuben and Robert Harrison, both of whom were prominent Methodists), Thomas Kirkman, and John Graham, all of whom were then laymen in the church. But little is known of these men except that they were eminently pious and useful in their day. Their very names meant the Methodism of the times, and their lives were bright examples of goodness and holiness, which exerteed an influence for good in the community for many years after they had passed away. Rev. Kirkman was in the ministry for a good many years and died near Hopkinsville about forty years ago. He was not a man of great ability, but was so beloved that his name is still held in reverence by men who never saw him. If we are not mistaken, the Hopkinsville Church still preserves with care an old-fashioned, straight-back chair with his name on it, used by the good old man two generations ago. From the best information obtainable, we gather that the church here must have duly organized, as we have said, soon after the year 1800, though there had been Methodist preaching here some years before, as shown in another place. We are satisfied that the old \"meeting house\" was immediately erected, if, in fact, it was not already there. It was a dilapidated old establishment, and there are men now living in Hopkinsville (1884) who remember the benches without backs, and the \"cracks in the floor so large that the chickens could be seen scratching underneath\". It was of brick, and here the church grew and prospered. Dr. Redford thinks the church had no place of worship until 1820, and the court house was used for that purpose, That they had no church building prior to 1820 can be only true from a legal point of view; and, as a matter of fact, the church had no legal title to their place of worship until the 21st of October, 1822, when George Kirkman, of Todd County, for $170 cash, conveyed the lot before referred to to PETER CARTWRIGHT, Benjamin Harrison, Ezekiel Harrison, Jr., John Burgess, Joseph Williams, Henry Allen, RICHARD GAINES, James Nichols, and Jesse Harrison in trust for the Hopkinsville Methodist Church. It is probable that the court house was used at times, but the old house was there years before. It was in this old meeting-house that the Tennessee Conference met in 1820, and the deed from Kirkman to the church described the lot as \"containing a Methodist meeting-house now erected\". Some have thought this old church was new, perhaps incomplete at the time of the conference of 1820; but a reference to the aforsaid deed, executed in October, 1822, will show the following stipulation: \" In trust, that they shall erect and build, or cause to be erected and built thereon, a house or place of worship for the use of the members\", etc ., and it is within the memory of some yet living, that according to this trust the church did very soon afterward, perhaps in 1828, repair and add to the old structure so as to perfect the building which was used by the church until the year 1848 or 1849. We may add here that, though the subject of parsonages had been frequently discussed by the church since 1820 (as the records show), occasionally houses rented for that purpose, and in 1833 the purchase of a parsonage for the Presiding Elder was ordered, it was not until the year 1838 that the committee was directed \"to inquire into the expediency of purchasing a parsonage\", and not until 1846 that the Hopkinsville Church really bought one. This was on the same lot with the old church, and was also of brick. It was sold, however, in 1848.\nThe following is a list of the preachers sent to the Christian Circuit (which included Hopkinsville) from 1810 to 1820, when Hopkinsville was cut o ff to itself and made a station: 1811, James Axley, Presiding Elder; PETER CARTWRIGHT, Circuit Preacher. The former of these was celebrated for his simplicity and meekness, the other for his great pugnacity. He was known and read of all men as the fighting preacher. Perhaps no man in the American pulpit since that day has been so noted for courage and audacity. His piety was not questioned, but his manner was extremely rude and sometimes unfortunate. Both were good preachers. From 1812 to 1816, PETER CARTWRI GHT, Presiding Elder; 1812, Jacob Turman, Circuit Preacher; 1814, John Johnson, Circuit Preacher. This last named gentleman enjoyed a great reputation as both a preacher and debater. It was in 1818 that the celebrated debates took place between him and Rev. Jeremiah Vardeman, a learned clergyman of the Baptist Church in Nashville and Hopkinsville. In these discussions, they both made fire and sparks fly until their reputations spread all over the country. In 1815, Claiborne Duval was the Preacher; 1816 to 1818, James Axley was again Presiding Elder; 1816 PETER CARTWRIGHT, Preache r; 1817, Benjamin Malone, Assistant, and John Devar, Circuit Preacher; 18 18 to 1821, Marcus Lindsey, Presiding Elder; 1818, John Cragg, Preacher; 1 819, PETER CARTWRIGHT, Assistant, and Martin Flint, Circuit Preacher.\nIn 1820, the conference cut Hopkinsville off from the circuit, and it remained what is called in Methodist parlance \"a station\" (as contra-distinguished from a circuit) until 1837. The following is a list of preachers on station and circuit until then: The first preacher to the new station was Rev. Andrew Monroe in 1820. The circuit had PETER CARTWRIGHT and William W. McReynolds; 1821 to 1825, Charles Holiday, Presiding Elder; 1821, Hopkinsville, John Johnson; Christian Circuit, Thomas A. Morris and RICHARD GAINES, Preachers.

That\u2019s why people ideally surround themselves with individuals who can help them think through challenges, provide solutions, and bring out the best version of themselves.\nThink about your most reliable friends, your support network, for a second. Wouldn\u2019t you agree that a good friend can make all the difference when you need support in handling a tough situation or a big life event, or the encouragement to move in a new direction in your life?\nIf a quality support network is so important to your personal life, why would it be any different in business?\nAt SAP, we\u2019re actively trying to change the way people do business. In an industry obsessed with personal growth, we\u2019re trying to spread it around. We\u2019ve invested in a business model where our success is directly linked to that of our partner ecosystem \u2014 we want to do our very best for them because when they win, we all do.\nWorking in collaboration with our partners, we at SAP are lucky enough to work with some of the best and brightest companies in the world, across 25 industry verticals and beyond. We take immense pride in providing products and services that increase speed and efficiency while also freeing up more time to do whatever it is they do best, whether that\u2019s financial services or farming.\nAt the same time, we want to arm our partners with all the tools and best practices they need to best support customers. This is especially true when working with small-to-midsize companies that may not have the resources, time, or funds to stretch to full-blown or lengthy implementations. Often, some SMEs aren\u2019t event completely aware of what they want until they try it, so they seek advice and support from our partners.\nThat\u2019s why we launched the new SAP SuccessFactors partners packaged solutions, to help our partners to create simple, pre-configured, affordable, scalable HCM solutions for mid-market customers. This offering empowers partners to leverage the knowledge, expertise, and best practices they\u2019ve built up from implementing SAP SuccessFactors solutions, to create their own unique packaged solutions that they are able to deliver much faster and more cost-effectively in order to meet the needs of SMEs.\nThe package will include much of the functionality a growing HR department may need \u2013 from core HR (SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central) to SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting or SAP SuccessFactors Performance & Goals to SAP SuccessFactors Succession & Development and SAP SuccessFactors Compensation. Wrapped around this will be other value-add benefits, including possible finance options, to make it more accessible to the SME. This helps make it even easier for partners to identify and deploy best-in-class tools to their customers, simply and affordably, with a better time-to-value. And for mid-market customers, they get access to world-class HCM solutions that could otherwise been unattainable.\nWe have already begun rolling it out to some of our most trusted partners \u2014 30 of them across EMEA and MEE \u2014 with some very exciting results.

        "title": "Soumya Chakraverty - Shahjahanpur Gharana",
        "raw_content": "Soumya was born into a family of music lovers. His mother received some early training in the Sitar and vocal music. However, both his parents were avid music listeners and had a large collection of LPs and other recordings of classical music at home. His siblings and cousins were all learning Indian Classical music of some form by the time Soumya was a little boy and with lessons on the tabla, so began Soumya\u2019s initiation into Indian classical music. He turned to playing the Sarod when he was eleven under the tutelage of the highly respected Pt. Samarendranath Sikdar, a senior disciple of the late Pt. Radhika Mohan Maitra of the Shahjahanpur Gharana. For nearly thirty years he has received extensive training under his guru in a multitude of north Indian Ragas, some of which are very rare and unique to his Gharana.\nHis solid technique and thorough grounding in the roots of his own music notwithstanding, his interests also lie in exploring the commonalities of North Indian Classical music with other music styles.\nHis playing style has been greatly influenced by the likes of his guru and other masters of his Gharana. It highlights a perfect blend between the Rababiya and Gayaki styles that is unique to the Shahjahanpur Gharana. He is both a purist, who likes to maintain the authentic forms of the Ragas as passed down the generations of Ustads (maestros), and at the same time, he likes to experiment with other forms of Indian as well as world music, to find common strands of melodic expression.\nSoumya blossomed as a young artist on All India Radio Calcutta between 1990 and 1995. During a brief stint in Australia for a couple of years in the nineties while pursuing his MBA, he truly established himself as a mature instrumentalist, and also began to collaborate with other forms of world music. He performed live with a Flamenco dancer in a production that combined the gypsy roots of the dance with Latin American percussion, Middle Eastern vocals and Indian Classical instrumental music. He returned to Australia in 2000 and 2011, giving concerts, lecture demonstrations and workshops.\nFor nearly two decades, Soumya has been performing throughout the US, as well as touring Australia and Mexico. He has performed in major cities such as Cleveland, New York, Princeton, Seattle, and his home town of Washington DC, drawing packed audiences and earning rave reviews. In addition to pure Hindustani he continues to work with other music genres such Classical Carnatic (south Indian), flamenco, jazz and latin American percussion. His recent concert and interview at the Library of Congress has gone into the archives of this prestigious institution. Other performances of note, include Hindustani-Carnatic Jugalbandi at the Embassy of India in Washington DC, a collaboration with Ghazal in a program series titled From Ghalib to Gulzar, and a fusion project combining Rabindrasangeet (Tagore songs), Hindusthani classical music, classical Jazz, and West African percussion in a concert titled \u2018Sea Thy Melody\u2019.\nSoumya balances his busy music schedule alongside a full-time career in banking and risk management. In addition to performances, he also teaches a number of students of Sarod and other stringed instruments, passing the tradition of the Shahjahanpur Gharana to the next generation. Although his primary interest is in Hindusthani classical, he continues to challenge himself exploring and working on blending with other genres of Indian and world music.\nSoumya performing at the American Folklife Center of the U.S. Library of Congress\nSoumya was recently invited to perform in front of a select audience at the prestigious American Folklife Center of the U.S. Library of Congress. Playing before a packed audience, he enthralled listeners with a beautiful medley of morning and daytime Ragas. Below is an excerpt of his concert. Accompanying him on the Tabla is Debu Nayak.\nSoumya performing at the Happy Valley Music Festival at Pennsylvania State University in 2016 (Raga Maru Bihag):\nSoumya performs Raga Chhaya Behag at a concert in Kolkata in December 2017, accompanied by Pt. Debendra Kanti Chakraborty\nAudio/Video Clips:\nSoumya performing at Bennington College in Vermont, USA with Yousuf Kerai on the tabla.\nPerforming in Raga Chandrakaunsh with Sid Lahiri (Jazz guitar) and Debu Nayak (tabla).\nVilambit and Drut Teental composition in Raga Purvi.

        "title": "Dave T h o r p (and Bob)",
        "raw_content": "J.\"Hoss\" Claerbout sets up the American Country Magazine,\ngets his boss thrown in jail,\nand celebrates his 21st birthday\nDave T h o r p (and Bob): While Jos was in Alaska, he packed a lot into his time here, as he did everywhere. He went commercial fishing. He worked on a political campaign. Worked for me here at Glacier House, not only working on the American Country Magazine, but also for a newsletter, also selling some advertising. He took courses at the University. He was taking music lessons, bought himself a guitar. After he worked for me he went out to McCarthy, Alaska, and worked for Bob Jacobs at St.Elias Alpine Guides.\nHe was just a very busy, busy person. He was good at everything he did. Where he fell down was simply because he was doing something that he had no idea how to do it, but he figured it out in a hurry and he always did a really, really good job. He was just a really good kid and a hard worker and he was lots of fun to have around. We really miss him a lot up here.\nBob sez, \"I think I actually paid Jos. I paid him by the tour.\"\nDave sez, What summer was it that Jos was out working in McCarthy? It would have been July or August of '95. because we started the country magazine. He went to work with me in November of '94. We cleaned the house. I gave him a room, and said let's do the country magazine.\nBob sez, \"He wore that stupid ass hat, the one he traded to the Mad Hatter when he bought an ad in the country magazine.\"\nDave sez, Jos went to work for me after coming off the Joni Whitmore campaign. Basically, the deal was that he didn't make any money on the campaign. He needed a place to stay. He was staying with me anyway and so I came up with this deal. I'm saying, \"Jos, I'm going to start a country western music magazine.\" With his interest in punk and rap and a number of other genres it was a natural fit, but mostly he needed a place to stay.\nHe agreed to work for me in exchange for room and board because I fed him most of the time. He bought his own cereal because I refused to buy a lot of the country shit that he ate -- in great quantity. I never saw anybody sit down and eat, like three bowls of Cheerios at one time.\nJos starts the American Country Magazine\nJos went to work for me to start a country western music magazine. It was completely foreign to anything he'd ever imagined, I think, but it certainly didn't slow him down. He had a pair of great big, huge, clod-hopper boots that he bought for the winter in Anchorage, like size 13. He proceeded to go out and talk to all the people who were interested in country western music or at least advertise to the country western music crowd. You know, he was this great big Clyde Kediddlehoffer with these boots, \"Hi, my name is Jos, and I'm selling country western music.\" He was amazingly successful.\nOur first few issues were actually profitable. He also went out and set up all the locations where we would distribute the magazine because it was a give-away thing. We gave it away for free, but we had to go out and secure locations to put our racks to give away the magazine. He was just phenomenally successful even the goofy guy that he was, he didn't really lend himself to country western music: the boots, the coat, the beard, the haircut. The only thing that was country was the hat.\nI don't know if anybody knew it, but he also started a punk-rock band in Anchorage with a guy that he met at the University of Alaska. He bought a bass guitar. Some of the people who were catering to the country western music crowd weren't really interested in the punk rock, but he'd tell them about it anyway. He'd sell them an ad too. He was just that kind of guy. He could sell anything to anybody; he was enthusiastic. He was a guy that got things done.\nBob was talking about the hat. He went in to see this guy that sells leather goods here in town, he calls himself The Mad Hatter. He sells hats and a lot of coats and stuff and Jos couldn't sell this guy an ad, but he did manage to trade the guy an ad for a hat, sort of a cowboy hat, that he put on top his head. You got the hat on the top and the boots on the bottom, and you got Jos inbetween, walking down a mall in Anchorage representing American Country Magazine from Glacier House Publications. It was a sight to be seen. It was funny; and it was successful, you know. He burned out after about seven months. He got free rent and the occasional meal from me, No pay. The use of my vehicle.\n[Dad recalls Jos telling about the morning he made an ad sale at a tavern. To express his appreciation for the sale, he orders an \"Irish Coffee\", not realizing that it will be coffee with whiskey.]\nJos gets his boss arrested\nThe one story that his father wanted me to relate was how Jos got me arrested. The circumstances that got me arrested were the same ones that got me arrested the first time, which led to a jail term that I never fulfilled. It didn't have anything to do with Jos. It happened like eight years before. The circumstances were for a traffic violation that we won't go into the details of. When I went to do my jail time, they told me there was a six months wait so I basically told them to go to hell. I moved to Bush AK, and figured I'd deal with them later.\nI used to make up my tags for my license plate. I couldn't, of course, license my vehicle, so on the computer, I would do my tags. I made my registration stickers for my license plates, and of course, I'd drive very, very carefully.\nWhen Jos went to work for me and I loaned him my truck, I told him that he as well had to drive, very, very carefully. I said to him, if you get pulled over, we might both go to jail. He did a pretty good job.\nHe decided he had to take a history course at the University of Alaska. One night, a Saturday night, he was late for class, so in a hurry he parked in a handicapped parking zone on the University. But not just any handicapped parking zone, he parked directly in front of the university police station.\nA couple hours later he comes out of class and there is not just one but two cops leaning against my truck. They didn't care about him. They wanted to know where I was. Jos says, \"He's out of town.\" He quickly ran into some bathroom and disposed of all his business cards, threw away stuff with my address and went back out to talk to them again. And they said, we're going to have to tow this vehicle. He got a ride home. He was just panicked.\nI said, \"Don't worry about it, this was going to come to a head at some point or another.\" But he was really bummed out. The truck was impounded.\nJust a few days before this, I had actually engaged the services of an attorney to straighten all this stuff out because it had been hanging over my head and I wanted to deal with it.\n[...Long story. Dave mistakenly goes to the police station to turn himself in on a Saturday before a long holiday... put in the drunk tank for four days .. handcuffed to some murderers...]\nI got out for seven days to put my affairs in order. Jos worked with me. You have never seen anybody feel so guilty in your life. I told him that was the one time in his life that he did something really stupid; he parked in a handicap zone in front of a police station. He had no idea of what the consequences would be. Eventually, I got to do my time (45 days) in a half-way house. Jos is making regular deliveries to me in the half-way house, this to do, that to do, ads and articles. We kept the magazine going. Made our deadlines. He really was contrite. He worked his ass off to make up for it. Caused Sue a few headaches as well.\nHe was an amazing person. He's what some of our circle would call a can-do person, not the kind of person who'd say, \"No, I can't do that.\" He was the kind of person who would say, \"Yeah, we can do that,\" and he'd figure out a way to do it. He was just a very positive person. You'd throw up an idea for him and if he wanted to tackle it, he would make it happen. That's what happened when he worked for me. He was a lot of fun. We disagreed on a lot of things; we had a lot of great arguments but we always had a lot of fun. Always. We miss him.\nCelebrating his 21st birthday\nHe had spent his 21st birthday up here and was hanging around my house with another one of Bob Jacobs' employees. They decided to go out on his 21st birthday and have a beer legally.\nThey ended up at Great Alaska Bush Company. It's the most famous strip club here in Alaska. Of course the clubs up here, if they choose to do so, are totally nude, and the Bush Company is the best of those kinds of places. They ended up going out and this kid Eric who was helping Jos celebrate his birthday did quite a bit more celebrating than Jos did.\nI wasn't around for this. I heard about it all after the fact. But apparantly after they came home, Eric decided to go back out. He hadn't had enough for the night and he got locked out. He was a big kid. Makes me look like a dwarf, maybe about 280 pounds. He didn't have any keys to get back in, so he just decided to come in the back door the hard way. He took the whole thing right off, not just took the door off the hinges, but the frame around the door, he took completely out of the wall.\nThey ended up coming back to my place. That of course woke Jos up. Jos confronted him and Eric wasn't too concerned about the whole thing; he just proceeded to go to sleep on the couch. Jos was very upset about the whole thing and proceeded to call the police. After a couple hours when the police hadn't come, he called them back again. They said, \"Listen kid, we got better things to do than worry about drunks coming home late at night and tearing the door off the wall.\" So I guess Jos just kind of propped the door up against the wall and went upstairs and went to bed himself. I guess the next day when Eric had sobered up, he and Jos fixed the whole thing, put it back in there. I guess they kissed and made up or they weren't mad at each other any more and they went back to work at McCarthy.\nThe unfortunate part about that whole story, I just heard, is that this kid Eric, who was maybe a couple years older than Jos, but certainly a much better candidate for a heart attack, actually died of a heart attack not that long ago.\nSomething in the air up here, or in the water at my house, but two fine young men succombed early on to heart disease. We are really sorry to see them both pass, particularly Jos. He had a lot to offer to all of us and to the rest of the world. We miss him very, very dearly.\nSorry I didn't get as many people together as I wanted to. Sorry I didn't get all the others to do stories... --Dave\nBelow are some story fragments from mother and father.\n\"Anchorage,\" he said, \"is a great place because it is only 25 minutes away from Alaska.\"\n\"In Alaska,\" he said, \"you didn't really lose your girl, you just lose your turn.\"\nJos had a date with a \"real\" Alaskan girl. She had just shot a moose. After that she said she was so excited that she just wanted go out and \"shoot everything\".\nAnother time he was skiing in town and a moose crossed his path. There was some tension for a while but the moose decided to leave him alone.\nHe got an offer of a \"real job\" selling copy machines but he turned it down to stick with American Country Magazine.\nIt is never to late to tell us stories or fragments of stories.

        "raw_content": "IOM: There are 662.000 migrants in Libya this year\nThe number of migrants in Libya\u2019s overcrowded detention centres has almost doubled over the past three months, according to the UN\u2019s migration agency.\nAmid a crackdown on Mediterranean crossings by the Italy and EU-backed Libyan coastguard, the number of people being held has swollen from 5,000 to 9,300, with thousands more at the mercy of smugglers in charge of unofficial detention facilities, the International Organization for Migration(IOM) said.\nhe IOM estimates there are 662,000 migrants in Libya this year \u2013 up roughly 40,000 from 2017 \u2013 10% of whom are minors (more than half unaccompanied). There are also 179,400 internally displaced people inside the country.\nThe IOM said on Tuesday that the number of migrants and refugees who have arrived in Spain by sea this year has overtaken those who have reached Italy. A total of 18,016 migrants arrived in Spain up to July 15, while 17,827 people landed in Italy during the same period.\nThe overall number of migrants and refugees entering Europe by sea this year totals 50,872, less than half the 109,746 who came in by mid-July last year, the agency said. In the same period in 2016, 241,859 migrants came to Europe.\nThe IOM has estimated that 1,443 people have died or gone missing in the dangerous Mediterranean route up to July 15 this year.",

        "title": "Seen and Heard on the Blvd- Lzcutter's TCM FF Recaps - Page 4 - The Silver Screen Oasis",
        "raw_content": "Re: Seen and Heard on the Blvd- Lzcutter's TCM FF Recaps\nPostby Lzcutter \u00bb April 23rd, 2015, 5:43 pm\nDateline- Hollywood,\nLate afternoon-Friday, March 27th\nWhile sitting in the corner booth waiting for The Surreal Existence panel to begin, I noticed an older gentleman sitting in the booth directly across the room from me in the TCM Staff RSVP section. Something about him caught my eye and I finally deduced he was astronaut Jim Lovell.\nThis panel caught my eye from the moment it was put on the schedule. The point of the discussion was for the panelists to talk about what it is like to have a Hollywood film made about them. I am a big fan of the film Argo and bought Tony Mendez\u2019s (the Ben Affleck character in the movie) memoir about his life in the CIA for Jon for Christmas after we saw the film in 2012. (I also consider the film to be a good luck symbol for me but that\u2019s another story.)\nSo I was really looking forward to hearing what Mendez said. We haven\u2019t seen Foxcatcher or 127 Hours but I was familiar enough with both to know the other two panelists, Mark Schultz and Aron Ralston. Schultz and his brother, Dave, were wrestlers who got caught up in a dramatic turn of events with a guy claiming to be an heir to the DuPont fortune as they trained for the Seoul Olympics. Aron Ralston was the outdoor enthusiast who went hiking in Southern Utah without telling anyone really where he was going and got trapped when a boulder pinned him to a canyon wall.\nIt sounded like my kind of panel.\nI was surprised that Ben M was doing the moderating duties instead of Scott McGee but then I realized that Scott was over at the El Capitan (where Jon was) introducing Raiders of the Lost Ark and interviewing stuntman Terry Leonard before the film unspooled.\nBen M took the stage and brought the panelists out. He was in awe (a bit) of Tony Mendez and I don\u2019t blame him. Mendez talked about the actual Argo mission and the film about the mission. Seems George Clooney was first supposed to star in the film before his schedule caused a conflict and he moved over to the producers chair with partner Grant Heslov. Mrs. Mendez would have preferred Clooney but Mendez seems to have great affection for Affleck. It came as no surprise to me to learn that the chase down the tarmac at the end of the film didn\u2019t happen and was a studio add-on but Mendez says even with that Affleck captured the emotion perfectly. He didn\u2019t really breath a sigh of relief until after the plane had cleared Iranian airspace and didn\u2019t feel truly safe until they were out of the region.\nThe film Foxcatcher deviates a great deal from the real events it depicts but Mark Schultz is happy with the film and very glad to have been portrayed by Channing Tatum. He thinks his brother would have liked Mark Ruffalo\u2019s performance as well. I don\u2019t want to say too much because all I have are spoilers if you haven\u2019t seen the film.\nAron Ralston turned out to be quite a talker. He takes responsibility for his own foolhardishness in going out to climb among the canyons in Moab in southern Utah and not really leaving anyone with an idea where he was going. He credits his mother with saving his life and from what I gather her contribution isn\u2019t explored fully in the movie. When he failed to show up for work on that Monday morning following his hiking weekend, his mother became worried. As the hours passed and no word from him she got more concerned. She ended up calling the Moab sheriff\u2019s office and it was only through a series of fateful phone calls that he was rescued.\nLuckily for Ralston, a deputy had seen his truck parked in a not well traveled area and made note of it. When Ralston\u2019s mother implored the sheriff to check with his deputies, luckily the deputy was in communication range.\nAt the time this was going on, Ralston was struggling out of the canyon and though he had a man-made tourniquet, he was bleeding badly. A truck stopped and a couple of guys helped him into the truck bed.\nThanks to his mother\u2019s diligence, the helicopter that would medi-vac him out crossed paths with the truck and he was saved. He says if any of that had not happened or had the time table been off by even 15 minutes he would have bled out.\nIt was a terrific panel and the audience gave Tony Mendez and the others a standing ovation at the end of the discussion.\nDateline- Hollywood, CA\nEarly evening- Friday, March 27th\nThere was about an hour between the end of that panel and the start of what everyone was calling \u201cFonda on Fonda\u201d. Peter Fonda had earlier in the day introduced both Young Mr. Lincoln and My Darling Clementine but my schedule and those films did not line up. So I was really looking forward to this.\nChristy joined us in the booth and Alexa brought another round of free beers. The time passed quickly and soon Scott Eyman was introducing Peter Fonda.\nFonda came out to wild applause. He thanked TCM for not having Nestle as the sponsor of the bottled water and the audience laughed and applauded some more.\nOnce everyone was comfortable, the discussion began.\nScott Eyman was the perfect choice to moderate this one. Fonda told a terrific story about how when his father, Henry, was overseas during WWII, his mother took him to a screening of Chad Hanna on the Fox lot. In the film, Henry played a circus performer and one of the critical scenes involved Fonda getting in the lion\u2019s cage. This scene freaked young Peter out. When he noticed the lion in the cage with his father, he ran down to the screen and began hitting it with his fist telling his father to be careful and trying to warn him of the danger.\nHis mother finally calmed him down by explaining that the man in the movie was not his father but a man named Chad Hanna. That calmed the young Fonda down until he got home and began to wonder why all the family pictures included Chad Hanna. (LOL!!!!)\nHe talked at length about Henry\u2019s friendship with Jimmy Stewart even though the two believed in different things politically and belonged to different political parties.\nOne Christmas Eve, when his father was still at war and Peter was still quite young, he and older sister Jane were upstairs and were supposed to be asleep. They heard a commotion on the roof and Peter ran into Jane\u2019s room. They had a way of getting to the roof from Jane\u2019s bedroom window and they hustled up there only to discover Santa Claus with a large bag of presents over his shoulder. They started talking to Santa and Peter quickly realized that Santa sounded just like \u201cUncle Jimmy\u201d. Jimmy Stewart had promised Henry that his children would have a great Christmas regardless of the war. Any way you slice it, that\u2019s friendship!\nPeter talked about the disagreements that he and Henry had as Peter got older and despite the estrangement and the turbulent 1960s that drove a wedge into their family (and countless other families during that time), you could tell that Fonda clearly loved his father.\nHenry didn\u2019t understand the \u201cEasy Rider\u201d generation very well but he knew Hollywood was changing and he went overseas to work for Sergio Leone in Once Upon a Time in the West. He had brown contacts made for the role and Leone was upset when he saw Fonda wearing them. He really wanted Fonda and those piercing blue eyes.\nAs Henry Fonda aged, he and his son found their way back together. Peter Fonda talked lovingly of about that and the audience went from laughing to sniffling. Alexa and I were both teary-eyed during this part of the conversation.\nWhen Jane was in pre-production with On Golden Pond, she had hoped that Fred Zinnemann would be the director. When Zinnemann bowed out, Peter Fonda sent a note to Jane saying he was very interested in directing the film and he knew a bit about families, estrangement and love. He never heard back from his sister.\nPeter Fonda also garnered a standing ovation at the end of the discussion. It was one of the best, if not the best , event I have seen at Club TCM in the six year history of the festival. I hope Fonda returns and talks at length about his own career.\nAnd Scott Eyman should be the interviewer!\nLate evening-Friday, March 27th\nAfter the emotion of the Peter Fonda interview, it was time to meet up with Jon. We had to get in line over at the Chinese Multiplex for On Her Majesty\u2019s Secret Service. Introducing the film would be George Lazenby, who only played Bond, James Bond, only once in that film.\nIt is one of Jon\u2019s favorite Bond films and I love it for the international film locations and consider it a prime example of studio film making in the late 1960s. We got prime spots in line, grabbed dinner which consisted of popcorn and bottled water (not Nestle) and waited.\nIt was about 8:45 when they started letting us in. We were starting to get tired but that was all forgotten once Ben M introduced Lazenby. George Lazenby is a throwback to a previous generation and Ben M had his hands full with this interview. Lazenby came very close multiple times to being what we call these days very \u201cpolitically incorrect\u201d somewhat sexist, etc. Luckily for Ben M and for Lazenby himself, he seemed to know when he had gone right up to the edge and pulled back. The man knows how to read an audience, thankfully.\nBecause of that, he and the audience had a great time. He recounted that he got the role of Bond due to a m\u00e9nage a trios that he found himself in. He was an auto mechanic in Australia and had pursued a girl to England. He became a top model soon after and followed that up with that m\u00e9nage a trios I mentioned earlier. Information procured during that led him to try out for the role of 007. He didn\u2019t have film experience but he spun tall tales of working in films in Europe, he had somehow gotten himself a Rolex, the right suit and went to the same barber that Connery went to for his haircut. \"I wanted to be James Bond. What man doesn't?\" he told the appreciative audience before recounting, \"I stood there with my Rolex showing.... I said, 'I heard you're looking for James Bond.' \" He was surprised when they asked him to come back .\nHe finally came clean to Peter Hunt, the editor of the previous Bond films who was finally getting the chance to helm this film. I said, 'Peter, I've never acted in my life....' He starts laughing. He said, 'You've fooled two of the most ruthless men I've met in my life! They made me come back from Switzerland to see you! Stick to your story and I'll make you the next James Bond!\u201d\nThe producers set him up with a prostitute to make sure he wasn\u2019t gay and he knocked out a Russian wrestler the producers had brought in to test Lazenby\u2019s fighting skills. They were sold that he could be Bond, James Bond.\nOnce filming began and he became quite interested in co-star Diana Rigg and she with him. Unfortunately, for Lazenby, she caught him in flagrante delicto in the catering tent with a secretary.\nHe walked away from the series he says because it was the hippy 60s, his manager/ agent convinced him he could make much more money making films in Europe and he went sailing off with a cute young thing. When he returned he found out that he had been blackballed by the producers.\nHe bounced around and ended up being befriended by Bruce Lee who planned to give Lazenby a comeback role in his next film but unfortunately, Lee died before that could happen.\nHe sounds like he is happy with his life and he dropped hints that he would like to be a villain in one of the new Bond films.\nWith the discussion wrapped up, the movie began.\nOne of the things we realized after the film was over- the ruthlessness that Lazenby brings to the character. You can draw a straight line from his characterization of Bond to elements of Daniel Craig\u2019s characterization.\nIt was great seeing it on the big screen and a film print, to boot!\nOnce we got home, at about midnight, the dog was very happy to see us. We were very tired and my day would start very early again tomorrow morning.\nGood company. Great movies. AND free beer?! Just keep rubbin' it in, Lynn. I'm loving these tales.\nMan, I wished I was there on March 27th ... thanks for sharing it.\nDateline- Hollywood\nSaturday morning, March 28th\nSaturday morning came much too early for this sleepy camper. I woke up two minutes before the alarm in my phone was set to go off. Jon was sleeping in and coming down in the early afternoon.\nNot this film fan, as I mentioned in a previous recap, David and I had been advocating for the last few years for The Man Who Would Be King to be screened at the Festival and this year, the Festival gods heard our pleas and granted our wish. This is one of my all-time favorite adventure films, Huston film, Connery film and one of my faves from that second golden age of Hollywood, the 1970s. There was no way I was missing this classic. The last time I had seen it on the big screen was over 30 years ago.\nMr. Bo gave me a quizzical look on my way out the door. Diet Coke in hand, I jumped in the car and was off to Hollywood and it wasn\u2019t even 8:30 yet.\nThanks to weekend traffic, I got to Hollywood in no time and parked at the Roosevelt. The lobby was fairly empty when I walked through on my way to Hollywood Blvd. Walking down the boulevard of dreams, it was a much easier hike than it is later in the day. Most of the tourists, the pan handlers dressed as characters and the illegal side walk vendors were still drinking their coffee or sleeping in. No complaints from me.\nGot to the Egyptian and got in line and within a few minutes, David joined me. While we waited we talked about the festival and then saw Paula in the Spotlight line. We were expecting Christi and Texas T\u2019s husband Joe to join us.\nIt was setting up to be another warm day.\nOnce inside we found Paula and our seats. As usual, Paula had picked some good ones.\nAt 10:00, the festivities began. Leonard Maltin, pinch-hitting for Robert O no doubt, came out and introduced Christopher Plummer to an appreciative crowd. Christopher Plummer looked very dapper and very handsome with that great mane of hair. And that voice, what a voice.\nHe talked about working on the film and did a wonderful imitation of John Huston. Seems Plummer had researched Kipling, had a wig made that matched the color of Kipling\u2019s hair according the Kipling Historical Society and showed up in Morocco with the wig. Huston was not a fan of the hairpiece and Plummer doing Huston\u2019s voice of god, recounted how Huston told him to lose the hairpiece or go back to London.\nThe best story had Plummer doing a Sean Connery imitation. Seems towards the end of shooting, the suits in Hollywood decided to throw their weight around. They thought the film was too expensive and wanted cuts made to the shooting schedule. The best idea they had for making those cuts was to loose the bookends of the story, the scenes in Kipling\u2019s The North Star office.\nAs Plummer told the audience, \u201c (Producer) Peter Guber knows this happened\u201d.\nSeems Guber and his entourage took a red-eye from London to Morocco so they could confront Huston with their outrage and their ideas. When they reached the lobby of the hotel that morning at shortly after 8:00, they were met by Sean Connery. Connery insisted in riding in the lift (elevator for us Yanks) with Guber.\nThe doors had barely closed when Connery grabbed Guber by the lapels and threw him up against the wall of the elevator.\n\u201cIf you cut Plummer, I\u2019ll be in London by tonight and you\u2019ll nary see me again.\u201d He told the startled executive. Guber must have believed Connery as all talk of firing Plummer and cutting his book-end scenes was forgotten.\nAnd Christopher Plummer does an excellent imitation of Connery by the way.\nPlummer is very proud of the film except for the score. He believes the score by Maurice Jarre, who was the go-to film composer back in the 1970, is all wrong for the film and prefers the score that Ravi Shankar had done for the film.\nAfter that, we gave Plummer a standing ovation and sat back to enjoy The Man Who Would Be King.\nThe film, an actual 35mm film I think though it may have been digital, was absolutely beautiful and Connery and co-star Michael Caine are perfection as the two English military men whose latest adventure sets them on a life altering journey neither were quite prepared for.\nThank you Charlie, Scott, Darcy, Genevieve and all the other TCM FF gods who made this screening possible!\nSaturday afternoon, March 28th\nAs soon as The Man Who Would Be King broke, I had to head over to the Chinese Multiplex to meet Jon for the screening of John Ford\u2019s Air Mail.\nWhen I suspect a film is going to be popular or in the multiplex theater with the least number of seats, I like to get in line an hour early so that when they start passing out queue numbers, we get good numbers because that ensures getting good seats.\nBecause of this, I didn\u2019t have much time to get from the Egyptian to the Chinese. Luckily for me, a very tall guy (not Jonathan Melville from Scotland) with a TCM FF badge around his neck was going my way. He walked with a purpose and had a long stride so I followed in his wake as people dodged to get out his (and by proxy, my) way.\nWe got a chance to talk as waited for the light to change at Hollywood and Highland. He was from back east and was a returnee to the Festival. Once we got to the multiplex, I thanked him for the company and quickly found Jon who was already in line.\nAs soon as we got our queue numbers, I went to get some food. Popcorn and water- yummy. We people watched while I ate my breakfast/lunch of festival champions.\nThe screening of So Dear to My Heart let out and Jon saw his boss come out of the theater with the family in tow. Jon\u2019s boss is the son of the child star who played the bully in the film and he had never seen the film on the big screen. The family had a great time seeing the film.\nWe talked for a few minutes and then I saw the Air Mail line moving. It was time to go.\nAir Mail was made in 1932 and tells the story of small company of daredevil pilots fly the mail over the Rocky Mountains. It stars Ralph Bellamy back when he was leading man, Pat O\u2019Brien the more experienced, jaded supporting male lead and Gloria Stuart as Bellamy\u2019s love interest.\nThe film includes both processed shots and actual flying with the stunt flying handled by Paul Mantz and his crew.\nI realized as I watched the film, that it was one of the films that had an influence on the 1980s astronaut and test pilot film, The Right Stuff.\nIt was a cracker-jack little film populated with the usual Ford characters and the themes of honor, loyalty and friendship.\nOnce the film was over, it was time to head over to the Roosevelt and Club TCM for the interview that Scott McGee was doing with stuntman, Terry Leonard.\nWe were able to snag a booth for the interview and Jon brought over a couple of free beers.\nWe settled in and soon enough, Scott McGee was introducing Mr. Leonard. Terry Leonard began his career in stunting working with John Wayne\u2019s stunt team. They were making a movie down at the old movie ranch, Old Tucson in Arizona when Leonard got hired.\nOne weekend night, the crew went out to a bar on Speedway ( one of the main drags in Tucson). I nudged Jon because he and his family lived in Tucson and when his father was still alive, we would go to visit frequently so I knew the street. Leonard couldn\u2019t remember the name of the bar but he did remember that it was frequented by both rock and roll types and country/western types back in the era when there was a great deal less similarity and cross-over between the two.\nLong story short, a fight broke out and the stunt guys prevailed but not before some damage was done. The next morning, Leonard received word that the boss, John Wayne, wanted to talk to him. He figured he was getting fired from his first big picture. Instead, Wayne seemed very understanding about the whole thing and welcomed him into the fold.\nLeonard talked a bit about working on Raiders of the Lost Ark which had screened the day before (and which Jon had seen) as well as his work in The Wind and the Lion which was screening shortly after this talk was finished.\nHe talked about how hard stunt work is, how dedicated stunt people are to their craft and how they want more than anything to get the job done and done right preferably the first time.\nIt was a terrific interview and before we knew it, it was time to head back to the Egyptian for another wonderful Sean Connery film from the 1970s (and another one of my favorites), The Wind and the Lion.\nSaturday night, March 28th\nOnce the Terry Leonard interview at Club TCM wrapped up, it was time for us to go get in line at the Egyptian for John Milius\u2019 wonderful 1975 adventure film, The Wind and the Lion. Big John used to teach at USC when I was there and he used to regale us with stories about his days at film school and working in Hollywood. I loved listening to him because he could spin a great yarn. TWATL has long been a favorite of mine (I saw it on its initial release because I am, after all, older than dirt). Jon has been big fan of the film since seeing it on the big screen at one of the USC screenings we had back in the day (though we never met during our time in the trenches of USC).\nSo, we were thrilled at the opportunity to see it again the way it was meant to be seen. Brian Keith\u2019s performance as Theodore Roosevelt is a terrific part and Geoffrey Lewis and Steve Kanaly in supporting roles, along with John Huston (yeah it one of those days), are all great. Candice Bergen and Sean Connery both shine and the score by Jerry Goldsmith is one of my favorites. Texas Theresa\u2019s hubby, Joe, joined us and we got good seats.\nTerry Leonard introduced the film and talked about the stunt work in the film. Then in an unsuspected move, he introduced Big John in the audience!\nMilius was sitting just a few rows in front of us. I was so glad that I taken Scott McGee\u2019s push to get me to the theater. (I was strongly leaning towards going to see Shirley MacLaine introduce The Apartment).\nThe audience applauded. Big John suffered a major stroke a few years ago and is still recovering from it. He has regained his speech but not completely and speaks haltingly. But it was great having him there to not only see one of his favorite films but also see it with such an appreciative crowd.\nThe lights dimmed and it was showtime.\nWhen the film was over, Joe made a run for Grauman\u2019s in hopes of getting in to see The French Connection. I had planned to make a dash for the Chinese multiplex to get in line for the Academy\u2019s presentation of hand-cranked films.\nBut, instead of dashing out of the theater with Jon in tow, I stopped and thought for a moment. Ah hell, how many chances will I get to actually talk to Big John again. I didn\u2019t dash for the exit. Instead, I walked down to where he was sitting with his wife. A small crowd of film buffs were telling him how much they enjoyed the film and talking to him. He was smiling and seemed very appreciative that we had enjoyed the film so much.\nI finally got the opportunity to talk to him and told him of our past connection at USC all those years ago and how great it was to see him again. He patted my hand (though I have no doubt he had no recollection of me) and thanked me. His wife was very gracious and thanked us all.\nI found Jon in the lobby and we walked back to the Hollywood and Highland complex. He was going home and I was hoping to get into the Hand-cranked films. After a kiss and a hug, I went into the multiplex. Lady Luck was not riding with me that evening. The line was long and out the door. The queue number was 257 for a theater that didn\u2019t seat that many. I knew I had to take a pass.\nPerhaps they would let me into Grauman\u2019s to see The French Connection with my man, Alec Baldwin talking with director William Friedkin after the film. Unfortunately, the film had already started and despite my best attempts, the ushers weren\u2019t buying what I was selling. The film had started and I was out of luck.\nUsually I would have been a tad pissed off but you know, I just smiled and walked towards the Roose. I had enjoyed of my favorite films and had gotten to talk to Big John. I had a good evening and nothing was going to diminish that.\nAnd, my stomach growled to remind me I was actually hungry. I had not eaten since that lunch of festival champions, eight hours ago.\nI stopped by the Roose coffee shop, 25 Degrees, and ordered some fries to go. A large order. While I waited for my dinner, I texted the troops to let them know I was headed to Club TCM and had fries to share.\nOnce in Club TCM, I grabbed a free beer and found my favorite booth. Texts came Alexa, Paula and Christy that they were headed over.\nBefore they got there, another woman commandeered the booth next to me. She was trying to shoot a video of herself recapping the day with her IPAD. Watching her take up her entire booth and part of mine, I made a bee-line for another booth.\nOnce I got settled in and had just started to nosh, Paula joined me and then Alexa (bringing more beer!).\nWe had a great time sitting there talking and Christy joined us soon after. My buddy, Rich, stopped by and talked to us at length. It was a terrific way to end a long day at the Festival.\nI finally decided to head home because after all, tomorrow was another day.\nSo glad you had a chance to see Christopher Plummer and John Milius at those screenings of those \"recent\" classics. Do you think that the Terry Leonard interview with Scott McGee will be shown on TCM someday?\nThanks again for sharing these accounts of your adventures.\nThanks for all your great recaps! Wish I could have met John Milius. How cool!\nI had so much fun being with all my friends this year. What a joy all the festivals have been.",

        "raw_content": "Babel; The three continents of Babel\nIntriguingly, each of the locations of BABEL has played a role in Alejandro Gonz\u00e1lez I\u00f1\u00e1rritu\u2019s life. Gonzalez I\u00f1\u00e1rritu took a life-changing trip to Morocco at age 17, and from the minute he was first introduced to that country\u2019s shimmering deserts and soulful mountains, he determined he would one day make a movie there. In this age of terrorism and fear, the setting became even more relevant to I\u00f1\u00e1rritu\u2019s story of mixed up communication and mistaken motives.\nSimilarly, the director\u2019s previous visits to Japan inspired him to commit to returning one day with a movie camera. In 2003, he went to that country to promote 21 Grams, and visited a place named Hakone, a landmark mountain with steaming thermal waters that struck him as magical. While climing up the Hakone mountain, he saw old man taking care of a mentally-retarded adolescent Japanese girl with such love and dignity that the image had a powerful effect on him \u2013 leading to the idea of telling the story of a relationship between two isolated people in the middle of bustling Japan. Later on, the strange and constant appearance of deaf people in that same trip, became the seed of the Japanese story,\nAnother influence on Gonzalez I\u00f1\u00e1rritu as he forged BABEL was his own recent move from his former home in Mexico City to the United States. The director knew he wanted to set one of his stories against the deadly and highly contentious border between the U.S. and Mexico. \u201cBeing an immigrant myself, I gained a clearer perspective of myself, my country and my own work. I also now understand what it feels like being a Third World citizen living in the First World country, and the complexity of its significance.\u201d\nProduction of BABEL began in Morocco in May of 2005, then moved on to Mexico and Tokyo \u2013 but wherever the production traveled, Gonz\u00e1lez I\u00f1\u00e1rritu attempted to bring the same sensibility. \u201cWe wanted to blend ourselves into each of the cultures,\u201d he says. \u201cWe wanted to transcend the black-and-white view of the outsider or tourist.\u201d\nIn Morocco, the key was finding a location to stand in for the village of Tazarine, a small, tight-knit enclave in the southern desert. Gonzalez I\u00f1\u00e1rritu had a very clear vision of what he wanted \u2013 a traditional-feeling community featuring a central plaza with a mosque, little or no foliage and roads large enough for a tour bus (not to mention a few production vehicles) \u2013 and set out to find it.\nFollowing a series of scouts near Ouarzazate, Morocco\u00b4s now burgeoning film center, Gonzalez I\u00f1\u00e1rritu found the remote Berber village of Taguenzalt. The village, built into the rocky gorges of the Draa Valley, boasts ancient, adobe-style houses (ksours) with rooms facing around an inner courtyard. On rooftops, Berber women saturate wool in vats of boiling water, using henna, indigo, saffron, and other ancient dyes to make the prized rugs named for the Berber people. Each night the sky, dusted by fierce Saharan winds, glows orange and red as the sun sets.\n\u201cI liked that this village was very humble and very real,\u201d comments Gonzalez I\u00f1\u00e1rritu. \u201cThe people in Taguenzalt were extremely nice and spiritual. And I mean really spiritual. I felt safe there.\u201d\nThe villagers of Taguenzalt can trace their Berber ancestors back more than 3,000 years, and today subsist mainly as pastoral nomads and farmers, raising dates, figs, goats and sheep, as well as weaving their internationally renowned rugs and handbags. Taguenzalt is so traditional that as the film began production, the village was just getting \u201celectrification,\u201d power poles and cables to provide the local people with their first ever electricity. So while some villagers had seen a movie on battery-powered television sets before, no one recognized the actors \u2013 even Brad Pitt. Thrust into the world of international film production, the entire village enthusiastically participated, with some 200 locals serving as extras.\nDespite the warm hospitality of the people, the conditions in Morocco could be daunting. Temperatures regularly soared to 98 degrees, with afternoon windstorms whipping up sands from the southern Sahara. Yet the discomfort only added to the gritty realism of BABEL. \u201cThe heat was brutal and uncomfortable, but it\u2019s precisely what this story is about. This was not only method acting, but method execution,\u201d says Gonzalez I\u00f1\u00e1rritu.\nAfter Morocco, production hopped back to Tijuana, Mexico \u2013 where once again, in parallel with the film\u2019s characters, the production found themselves in a dusty, sweltering desert and a tiny, secluded village. Here the rural, Norteno town of El Carrizo stood in for Amelia\u2019s ramshackle home in the \u201cLos Lobos\u201d hamlet. Key sequences were also shot along the border between Mexico and California, where Gonzalez I\u00f1\u00e1rritu captures the view from the Mexican side \u2013 with its extensive fencing, surveillance cameras, mega-watt stadium lighting and fortress-like atmosphere. A smaller cast and crew then moved on into the harsh, desolate expanses of the Sonoran desert for the scenes in which Amelia and the children struggle to survive during their disastrous border crossing.\n\u201cFive people were in the hospital in the Sonoran desert. Adriana almost suffered from heat stroke on set. It wasn\u2019t easy,\u201d recalls the director.\nFinally, Gonzalez I\u00f1\u00e1rritu and his crew arrived in Tokyo which, despite being the only urban setting in the film, was rife with its own hectic challenges. \u201cTokyo was both a wonderful experience and a difficult one,\u201d states Gonzalez I\u00f1\u00e1rritu. \u201cThings work slowly there and there\u2019s no film commission to help you through. There\u2019s no permission to shoot anything, so you are always escaping from the police at every corner. We had to be brave and work like a guerilla-style crew, ready to improvise, moving fast.\u201d\nEvery phase in the making of BABEL both mirrored the situations faced by the characters, and in turn informed the film\u2019s story even further. \u201cEveryday, I was adjusting and adapting the script, depending on how the culture struck me,\u201d says Gonzalez I\u00f1\u00e1rritu. \u201cIf the film molded reality or the other way around is best left for the audiences to guess.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Marshall Stull June 9, 2015 1 Comment\nLooking for a prototype industry straddling a main line, try Chelsea Milling Company. Located in Chelsea Michigan, the company produces Jiffy brand mixes since the 1930s. Jiffy was created as the first prepared baking mix in the United States.\nThe company has been family owned and operated since it was founded. The company is now managed by Howdy Holmes, a former Indianapolis 500 and CART driver. The company employs about 300 workers and produces 1.6 million boxes of its products each day. The Jiffy corn muffin mix has a 90% market share and is the company\u2019s biggest seller.\nMost of the company\u2019s products are handled, processed and produced in-house, which includes grain storage, the grinding of grains into flour, product mixing and box manufacturing. A significant amount of product ingredients are sourced from Michigan-raised crops, including \u201cmost of the wheat and some of the sugar. Some sugar and shortening is imported from Illinois and Indiana. The company offers free tours of its operations to the public. Over the last few years, Chelsea Milling has been expanding into the food service and institutional industries. They have also been upgrading equipment and processes to become more efficient. To learn more about the history of the Chelsea Milling Company, and the \u201cJIFFY\u201d Mix brand, there is a Virtual Tour video.\nOverview of plant (click to enlarge)\nThe Chelsea Milling Company straddles the old Conrail (ex: Conrail/New York Central/Michigan Central) main line between Detroit and Jackson. The line today is owned by Norfolk Southern and sees several Amtrak trains every day with service between Detroit and Chicago. Although the Chelsea Passenger station is standing and is in good shape, no passenger trains stop in Chelsea. Additional info on the operation along the line is available at http://knorek.com/RR/SAA/MichiganLine/MichiganLineIndex.htm\nChelsea was once home to the Glazier Stove Works who built a very large clock adjacent to the milling works and across the street from the passenger station. This clock tower is a major feature of Chelsea.\nClock Tower (hides a water tank which is no longer used) built by Glazier Stove Company\nIf someone wanted to model the entire Chelsea milling works to scale, it is approximately 1,800 feet (20 feet in HO) wide along the main line. This includes the passing siding, all spurs and the switching lead. The depth of the scene could be done in 360 prototype feet (less than 2 feet) if the main plant is done as a background building with the grain elevators on the front of the layout.\nThe entire scene of Chelsea would make an excellent subject for a Free-mo module. The scene will fit within the 2 foot width and could include the station and the clock tower. The milling company would be a great addition to operations. The facility information according to Norfolk Southern is:\nTypes: Wheat Flour Mills\nSwitch Road: NS\nSwitch Status: CL\nStorage Capacity: 1500000\nTrack Capacity: 15\nLoading/Unloading Capacity: 3\nMost grain is gathered within a 150 mile radius of Chelsea and is delivered by truck. Even so there is almost always a few grain cars on hand and the plant can also receive other bulk products (such as sugar and Shortening) by rail when required. With selective compression the Chelsea Milling Company can serve a small layout, free-mo module or even be a small Layout itself.\n\u2190 Layout Spotlight \u2013 Will County Model Railroad Association (WCMRRA)\nLost in the Past \u2192\n1 thought on \u201cChelsea Milling Company Home of Jiffy Mix\u201d\nExcellent article and great modeling idea!",

        "raw_content": "India and Saudi Arabia: United against global terrorism\nIndia has time and again lauded efforts by the kingdom in fighting terrorism such as the royal decree on counter-terrorism issued by King Abdullah. The kingdom is also a member of the 68-nation strong Global Coalition Against Daesh and one of the founding countries of the Islamic Military Alliance against ISIS in Syria and Iraq, writes Ayalur K Balakrishnan for South Asia Monitor.\nBy Ayalur K. Balakrishnan\nSaudi Arabia has faced more than 60 attacks by terror groups Al-Qaeda and Daesh, about half of them in the last two years alone. Daesh, also known as Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS), called for the extermination of the Saudi royal family in three formal pronouncements issued between 2014 and 2016! India is the third biggest target of terror attacks after Iraq and Afghanistan. Of the 11,072 terror attacks worldwide in 2016, as many as 927 took place in India!\nSaudi Arabia and India have a long history of shared prosperity and pain, unifying them in happiness and grief. Having faced the brunt of terrorism, both have for long been treading the path of cooperation to fight the menace by joining forces in cyber and maritime security and against transnational crimes, human and drug trafficking.\nThe two countries have been partners in peace since 2006, as the year witnessed the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz Al Saud and Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh sign the landmark Delhi Declaration and agree to enhance regional and global cooperation to combat and eradicate terrorism. The two governments decided to closely and actively cooperate to fight other transnational crimes such as money laundering, drugs and arms smuggling in a sustained and comprehensive manner. Their continuous efforts for the adoption of Comprehensive Convention on International Terrorism is an example of their unwavering will to fight the threat in all its forms.\nThe Riyadh Declaration of 2010 ushered in a new era of kinship between the countries, wherein they re-emphasised terrorism as a global epidemic engulfing all countries alike, irrespective of race, colour and beliefs. They also welcomed the signing of the Extradition Treaty and the Agreement for Transfer of Sentenced Persons according to which Indian prisoners imprisoned in Saudi Arabia or vice-versa shall be transferred to their country for serving remaining part of their sentence. Also, their social rehabilitation shall be facilitated.\nAnother important milestone in strengthening the strategic partnership between the two countries was the MoU on Defence Cooperation signed during the visit of the Custodian of The Two Holy Mosques King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud to India in February 2014 as the then Crown Prince, Deputy Premier and Defence Minister of the kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Prime Minister Narendra Modi\u2019s visit to Saudi Arabia in 2016 that resulted in enhanced cooperation in counter-terrorism operations, intelligence sharing, anti-money laundering, prevention of use of cyber space for terrorism, radicalisation and for disturbing social harmony is yet another landmark event in this regard.\nIndia has time and again lauded efforts by the kingdom in fighting terrorism such as the royal decree on counter-terrorism issued by King Abdullah. The kingdom is also a member of the 68-nation strong Global Coalition Against Daesh and one of the founding countries of the Islamic Military Alliance against ISIS in Syria and Iraq.\n\u201cWe will not allow them (terrorists) to distort our peaceful religion. Today we are sending a strong message that we are working together to fight terrorism,\u201d Crown Prince Muhammad bin Salman, who is also the kingdom\u2019s Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Defence, told assembled defence ministers of the Islamic Military Alliance in his keynote address in Riyadh. Crown Prince Mohammed has vowed terrorists will be pursued until they are \u201cwiped off the face of the earth\u201d, sentiments that Prime Minister Modi has also shared.\nThe United Nations Counter-Terrorism Centre (UNCCT) was also envisioned by the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz Al Saud and launched in 2011 with an initial contribution of $10 million by Saudi Arabia. The kingdom later pledged another $100 million to enhance the capabilities of UNCCT. The kingdom also co-chairs the Counter ISIL Finance Group along with the United States and Italy. In fact, the Saudi government had put in place majority of its new financial controls and banking regulations in as early as 2003, aimed at stopping those who financially support terrorism and extremism within Saudi borders and beyond. The Saudi Arabian Monetary Agency (SAMA) issued instructions to all Saudi financial institutions to implement the 40 recommendations of the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) of the G-8 countries regarding money laundering and the recommendations regarding terror financing.\nTogether as committed global partners, Saudi Arabia and India are fighting a common enemy \u2013 global terrorism. Together they are working to establish peace that shall not only belong to the holy month of Ramadan but to all months and years to come.\n(The author is a senior Indian journalist who has worked with the Jeddah-based Saudi Gazette for more than two decades.

Anand has stated that he is not worried about his form at the tournament and is rather happy to be a part of a good team.\nVishwanathan Anand has represented the country in five Olympiads between 1984 and 1992 before taking part in the 2004 and 2006 edition. Although the Indian currently ranks 10th in the world, he has not had the best of years as he ended the Grand Chess tour with only 15 points. The five time World Champions last won an event in Moscow at the Tal Memorial rapid tournament and his form has said to have eventually gone down but he is not worried about it.\n\"Generally, these days my form wobbles a lot more. I have noticed though that most players suffer from the same phenomenon. No one is able to maintain stability for long. So I am not particularly concerned about my form,\" he said.\nAnand stated that he stopped playing at the Olympiads due to no specific reasons as such but after a point he just started feeling exhausted.\n\"There is no specific reason why I stopped playing the Olympiad. I didn't like Turin (venue of 2006 Olympiad) for many reasons and right afterward I was quite exhausted with so many other tournaments including my World Championship matches that I preferred to stay away. I cannot tell you why I have rejoined the team now. It just worked out and the federation too was very cooperative,\u201d he said.\nHowever, Anand has stated that he is really very happy to be a back with the team that comprises the likes of Pentala Harikrishna, Vidit Santosh Gujrathi, B Adhiban and K Sasikiran.\n\"If the team atmosphere is good you benefit from that. I am confident there will be a good ambience as we get along very well with one another. Even in the camps we had a very good time. The Olympiad is an individual event played by teams. I will do my best on my board but I will play better if I see the rest of the team members playing well and they will do well if they see me playing well,\" he quoted.",

Meanwhile, at the Tashkent Challenger, Vishnu Vardhan and N Sriram Balaji suffered a shock defeat against Sanjar Fayziev and Jurabek Karimov in the quarter-finals.\nAfter reaching the second round of the ATP Masters tournament, Divij Sharan wanted to extend the memorable run, but when the third seed duo of Marcelo Melo and Luksz Kubot came in front of them, it was all them.

Still happy to get a chance to play in my first ATP 1000,\u201d said Sharan, who will be playing in Antwerp next, reported PTI.\nWhile Sharan\u2019s memorable win came to an end as Rohan Bopanna had also crashed out of the first round of the tournament.

Because someone sent to me this tweet - I swear to God I can't see anything anymore - that you sent out at the end of August at 10:55 p.m. \"Huge difference between Mitt Romney and Barack Obama is that Mitt loves America. We need a president that loves this country.\" I think that's from - I missed this one, but someone forwarded it to me.\nDo you think that President Obama doesn't love this country? What does that mean?\nKREMER: I think that he is more about a global - being a global - oh, what's the word? Being more one world, global, with you know other countries and it's not about the shining city on the hill, the greatness that has always been America that our founding fathers were about. I do believe that. I - I mean, I absolutely believe it. I'm not going to run from that.\nLook, I mean, President Obama, and I know I'm going to take a lot of heat for this, but he's never run anything. Mitt Romney, you asked me what is the case for Mitt Romney, Mitt Romney time and time again has taken companies that are failing and turned them around to make them successful.\nI mean, he turned the Salt Lake City Olympics around. He ran the state of Massachusetts. Because what I'm saying is we are - we are failing. We are about to go off this fiscal cliff. And we need somebody that can turn it around.\nPresident Obama has not turned it around. I'm sorry he hasn't -\nNUTTER: But the Governor has also - but the Governor has also taken over companies and put people out of work. At the expense of losing jobs and making money for himself and for his investors. If you're going to tell one side of the story, tell the other side.\nKREMER: I mean and you know and President Obama's energy policy, if it's - and in President Obama's energy policy if it's implemented, it's going to cost - I mean let me see. I have the numbers right here because I'm not very good with numbers. But it's going to cost us 7.3 million jobs by 2020. And $1 trillion in compliance costs between 2020 and 2030.\nO'BRIEN: I just never understand what any of that has to do with loving the nation. I mean, I honestly, I always feel like that's a code word for something else.\nKREMER: I just I mean, I don't feel like he is -\nNUTTER: What is the basis for questioning the President's love for this country? How can you say that?\nKREMER: I just I don't believe that he loves America the way that we do.\nNUTTER: Based on what? We who?\nKREMER: He is more about one world - I mean more about -\nNUTTER: What does that mean?\nKREMER: I just explained it to you.\nNUTTER: Well, clearly, I'm not understanding.\nKREMER: Well, I mean, don't know how else to explain it.\nLIZZA: His foreign policy - his foreign policy that you look at it and say, oh that's Obama wants America to be gone and he wants one world?\nKREMER: I mean we are not leading. We're waiting on others to tell us what to do. That's never been the American way.\nLIZZA: What specifically? What specifically?\nKREMER: I believe it was Syria. Was it Syria that or one of the conflicts where we - the French told us we could go and do what we needed to do. Were - that's - that's not the American way. We need to lead.\nNUTTER: Well, maybe this is America now.\nKREMER: But this is the thing the foreign policy - it's not about foreign policy we're never all going to agree on foreign policy. But why the Tea Party Movement has been so successful is because of the fiscal responsibility.\nLIZZA: I think what you're saying is leading from behind, right?\nKREMER: Yes.\nLIZZA: So I was the journalist that actually reported that quote. So the leading from behind is something that was told to me. And actually, what it refers to is the strategy in the UN, the U.S. led a coalition in the UN to get military authorization to topple Gadhafi.\nSo the quote actually is the opposite of what you're saying. It actually refers to the strategy that Obama used in the UN to get all of the nations to support the U.S.'s use of force resolution because after the Bush years, it was really hard for the U.S. to go to the UN and get support because Bush was really, really unpopular.\nO'BRIEN: But people didn't care about foreign policy. I guess my question is, when I hear somebody say that someone doesn't love the country, and you know I'm very susceptible to the dog whistle thing.\nKREMER: The what?\nO'BRIEN: That dog whistle that there is a message in that. When someone says that somebody doesn't love the country and you're talking about the President I just find that to be a very odd comment.\nKREMER: I don't believe - I mean look, we're sitting - I mean we're sitting here, is our goal really in this administration to be the leader that we always have been, to be that shining city on the hill?\nO'BRIEN: What does that have to do with love for your country? Mitt loves his country and President Obama doesn't?\nKREMER: If you love this country and you want to restore our heritage and that sort of thing, you go out there and you lead. You don't wait on others to tell you what to do. And you take those bold steps. I mean, I don't think that that's what the objective of this administration is.\nO'BRIEN: So I'm going to stop you there. Mr. Mayor, stop. Because I have had so many people screaming in my ear that we have so gone over. I thank you for this conversation. We've got to take a break. We're back on the other side.\nFiled under: 2012 Race \u2022 Democratic National Convention \u2022 Politics \u2022 Tea Party\ngeorjia\nTea Party is two faced.

But Obama didn't ask Pakistan for permission before taking out Bin Laden. The idea that our country should simply act without cultivating international relationships, without concern for global impacts of our national policies, if this is what the Tea Party is all about, wanting America to dominate, then it furthers the idea that the Tea Party would not only want every American to have a stockpile of ammunition and weapons, but their idea of \"love for our country\" is like the love a jealous boyfriend feels for his girlfriend just before he kills her. This interview is evidence that Tea Partiers don't even know what love is.\nSeptember 5, 2012 at 10:43 am | Report abuse | Reply\nWow... oh.... wow. This is what happens when the uneducated actually believe they are intelligent.\nSeptember 5, 2012 at 4:15 am | Report abuse | Reply\nRomney as Gov. of Ma. ran the state to 47th in job creation, and #1 in public debt. Romney's Bain Capital, owned Stericycle, that provided for the disposal of aborted fetus for medical centers and hospital. So it's ok to profit from abortion and be against the a woman's right to choose. When Romney had the opportunity to prove himself as a political leader, and follow through on his personal stance against abortion, he failed. Oh yes he headed the Salt lake Winter games. Heading an event whereby the global demand for was already built in. The Tea baggers act as if he invented the Olympic Winter games.\nMore hysterical ramblings from the Tea Party . . .\nSo Let me get this right, The tea party loves the country soooo much that they would rather destroy it than give a decent man a chance to change the way Washington has doing business, which has been such a success over the last thirty years, I mean no wars no unemployment countless Americans living the dream and world peace , I see what you mean wow are you proving a point on your head with America. Obama 2012\nWow, talk about clueless. Only thing she seems to truly understand is that she's bad with numbers (and everything else).\nThis woman makes America look very bad.\nDuh, Duh \u2013 President Obama has never run anything. He has only been President of the United States \u2013 Duh, Duh. He doesn't believe in the shining star that America has been everything since the slavery states \u2013 duh, duh, He isn't about America, he is global duh, duh. America isn't that shining city anymore, Duh- Duh.\nI is smart \u2013 duh, duh.\nThis woman makes America look very bad!\nKremer is doing wonders for the Democratic party. I have never, ever, heard anyone so ignorant, inarticulate, and close minded on a national stage. Thank you so much for speaking your mind, what there is of it.\nI mean - I mean - I mean. What does this empty babbler really mean?\nthat lady from the tea party did not do justice to her party at all, very embarrassing at best. Fine if you want to believe such things, but at least select someone that can intelligently position their arguments. She could not even tell the difference between Syria and Libya. and who is she to say who does and doesn't love their country? based on what? her views? I couldn't care less what she thinks.\nThis country defaulted for the first time in history because of this infiltration of this woman and her group. They are destroying America just like Joe McCarthy tried to do. He damaged a lot of lives before he was stopped. She loves this country more than The President of the United States. THIS is what turns us on the Republican Party. This type of ignorant rhetoric. The Tea Party claims to be Christian based. I am a Christian and how these people can talk ONLY about the dollar and call themselves Christians is WAY beyond what I can fathom. It's all about the Almighty Dollar. What about the babies that are born because someone didn't have an abortion? What about the \"How many times do I have to be my brother's keeper.... 70 x 7 ??? OH I thought we couldn't pick and choose what was in the bible. Did any of the self professed Christian (Tea Party) Republicans really hear the words of Jesus Christ? Really??? Because I read that same Bible and what I got out of it was that money was the root of all evil. Love your neighbor. Take care of your brother. How many times? Yea, you got it! Forgive, be nice. BE ALL INCLUSIVE... How can a Christian be for a party that wants to quantify RAPE? It wasn't just one man. Paul Ryan supports a bill that quantifies rape. A lot of other Republicans do too. Do you have daughters? You have to care! The thing is... don't call yourselves Christians and claim Christ for yourself and then turn around and disregard EVERYTHING He said about \"others\". I'm always hearing \"You can't pick and choose what's in the Bible, yet I'm seeing those who claim Him for themselves disregard all He stood for and all He told us to do. Don't tell someone not to have an abortion and then let them watch their child starve or have to put them in the trunk of their car while they work because we won't help take care of them. Don't tell someone you love them in Christ and then let them just watch their baby die because they don't have health insurance. YOU will be old someday. When that catastrophe hits and your out of vouchers... think of President Obama. Only it will be too late then. Tell your mother or father \"Ooops too bad dad, we have to have money to have our fun with.... out of vouchers tough cookies.\" You want Big Government out of your life HA this Republican Party is crawling into every segment of your life including your bedroom. This country was founded on Religious Freedom... Not developed as a Christian Nation! Religious Freedom... we as Christians were on the wrong side of that stick at one time! Be careful, pray and VOTE.\nKnowbodyXXL\nSome Tea-Bagger questions Obama's patriotism, what else is new?",

        "raw_content": "Palm Sunday of the Passion of Our Lord (Liturgical Year B)\nOn Palm Sunday, we approach the climax of Our Lord\u2019s Mission to save us. He established the One True Church which offers us the fullness of the Truth He brought and the means to persevere in Grace until death. Although God Incarnate, He atoned to the Father for our sins. The Eternal Son of the Father would be, in a \u2018rigged\u2019 trial, falsely accused of blasphemy and subsequently Crucified on Calvary. As far as those who opposed Him were concerned, \u2018problem solved!\u2019.\nToday, at the 11:30 Mass, we begin our Liturgy outside the church and, starting from the hall, we process to the church, commemorating our Lord\u2019s triumphant Entry into Jerusalem: Through the words of the Entrance Antiphon, we join the rapturous crowds who, on that day, gave Christ the King a \u2018royal welcome\u2019, lauding Him, truly, as \u2018\u2026he who comes in the name of the Lord\u2026\u2019, carpeting His route with palms. The Palm Crosses which we receive today should prompt us to contemplate His Offering of His Life in order to restore our Eternity. They should also inspire us to pray that we may offer our \u2018Crosses\u2019 (i.e. setbacks and sufferings) which God permits us to bear in this life, in loving union with His Passion and Death, so bringing us to live eternally with Him.\nEntry into Jerusalem - from Pietro Lorenzetti\u2019s Assisi Frescoes, 1320\nThrough the Gospel account, read in the hall (Mark 11:1-10), we follow the final preparations for the Entry into Jerusalem and Christ\u2019s welcome by the crowds, many of whom would later be calling for His Death! How many times have we reacted uncharitably to someone who, perhaps out of loving concern, pointed out our faults to us?\nThe First Reading read in church, (Isaiah 50:4-7), puts before us Isaiah\u2019s prophecy of the brutal treatment meted out to God Incarnate. While, especially in more anti-Semitic times, the Jewish People were conveniently portrayed as the \u2018villains of the piece\u2019, we would do well to consider that each and every one of us, each and every sin committed until the end of time, caused our Saviour to Die.\nThrough the words of the Responsorial psalm (Psalm 21: 8-9, 17-20, 23-24, response v2) we are privileged to join in spirit with Our Lord, hanging in agony on the Cross, uttering that seeming cry of despair, \u2018My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?\u2019. Just as we must never presume that we can get to Heaven without the help of God\u2019s Grace, neither must we commit the sin of Judas, despairing that God cannot or will not forgive us, if we repent of the gravest of sins.\nSaint Paul, writing to the Philippians (Philippians 2:6-11), lays before us true Humility. Christ Himself, Second Person of the Trinity though He is, brought Himself down to our Human level (\u2018\u2026in all things but sin\u2026\u2019), innocently died a criminal\u2019s death, and demonstrated to us the immense Power of God, Who alone, can triumph ultimately over evil, however crushed we may be by it. We proclaim this truth in the Gospel Acclamation (Philippians 2:8-9).\nFinally, in the Gospel (Mark 14:1-15:47), the Passion narrative, we hear of the betrayal of Our Lord by Judas, the Last Supper and first Ordination Mass and Christ\u2019s Agony as He contemplated, in Gethsemane, the horrors of His coming Passion and the sins of all time for which He was to Atone. We stand witness to the desertion of the Disciples, to the sham trial and the brutality of His captors, to Peter\u2019s denial of his Master, and then to the agonising Crucifixion and Death of our Blessed Lord, followed by His Burial in the Tomb.\nHow obviously do our lives as Catholics demonstrate our Faith and stand as a \u2018sign of contradiction\u2019? Do our words and actions show others that we really believe that, \u2018Christ has Died, Christ is Risen, Christ will come again!\u2019?",

        "raw_content": "Resveratrol Protects Against Cancer\nThread: Resveratrol Protects Against Cancer\nLung cancer is the deadliest form of cancer in the world, and 80% of death are related to smoking. In addition to tobacco control, effective chemoprevention strategies are therefore needed.\nA team of scientists from the University of Geneva (UNIGE), Switzerland, studied a well-known natural product, resveratrol, which is found in grapes and in red wine. While its chemopreventive properties against cancers affecting the digestive tract have been documented by previous studies, resveratrol has so far shown no effect on lung cancers. Thanks to nasal administration, the UNIGE team obtained very promising results in a study conducted in mice and described in the journal Scientific Reports.\n\u201cWe tried to prevent lung cancer induced by a carcinogen found in cigarette smoke by using resveratrol, an already well-documented molecule, in a mouse model,\u201d explains Muriel Cuendet, Associate Professor in the School of pharmaceutical sciences of the UNIGE Faculty of Science. This 26 week long study contained four groups of mice. The first one, the control, received neither carcinogen nor resveratrol treatment. The second received only the carcinogen, the third received both the carcinogen and the treatment, and the fourth received only the treatment. \u201cWe observed a 45% decrease in tumor load per mouse in the treated mice. They developed fewer tumors and of smaller size than untreated mice,\u201d says Muriel Cuendet. When comparing the two groups that were not exposed to carcinogen, 63% of the mice treated did not develop cancer, compared to only 12.5% of the untreated mice. \u201cResveratrol could therefore play a preventive role against lung cancer,\u201d she continues.\nThis formulation is applicable to humans\nHowever, resveratrol does not seem suitable for preventing lung cancer: when ingested, it is metabolized and eliminated within minutes, and therefore does not have time to reach the lungs. \u201cThis is why our challenge was to find a formulation in which resveratrol could be solubilized in large quantities, even though it is poorly soluble in water, in order to allow nasal administration. This formulation, applicable to humans, allows the compound to reach the lungs,\u201d explains Aymeric Monteillier, a scientist in the School of pharmaceutical sciences of the UNIGE Faculty of Science, and the first author of the study. The resveratrol concentration obtained in the lungs after nasal administration of the formulation was 22 times higher than when taken orally. The chemoprevention mechanism is probably related to apoptosis, a process by which cells program their own death and from which cancer cells escape. The UNIGE research team will now focus on finding a biomarker that could contribute to the selection of people eligible for preventive treatment with resveratrol.\nTowards a preventive treatment?\nResveratrol is an already well-known molecule, which is found in food supplements, meaning that no further toxicological study would be needed prior to commercialisation as a preventive treatment. \u201cThis discovery is unfortunately of little economic interest to pharmaceutical groups. The molecule is indeed simple and non-patentable and cancer prevention studies require a follow-up over many years,\u201d regrets Muriel Cuendet, without excluding the development of preventive treatment in humans.\nthis is interesting, just 2 days ago a medical blurb on TV come out and said the truth of drinking wine is that doing it regularly is a cause\nwestern pa near pittsburgh\nCopd, cancer and heart disease\nBarb; It seems lung cancer and heart disease seem to be a bonus of COPD? From what I have read COPD medicines cause calcification of arteries, there is only one way to break up this calcium. It would be good for COPD patients to read Knapen study on mk-7 and www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/29132356, this shows that after 3years of vitamin mk-7 will break up this calcium.God bless\nOriginally Posted by willis\nAnd then there are the studies that say that a drink a day is heart healthy! Often a bias can be found if you look at who funded the study, but many times it doesn't seem like there is a special interest. Enjoy in moderation is how I feel about it.\nOriginally Posted by jgp\nThanks for this jgp. I found a supplement that has MK4 (you provided info on this in another post) and MK7. The cost of such supplements is quite reasonable. I'm not sure why the NIH study feels that more studies are needed, but that is the nature of research I guess. Unless there would be some reason one's doctor said not to supplement with K, I see no harm in starting such a regimen (including Vitamin D3) now rather than waiting for more studies.\nQuick Navigation Pulmonary Disease Top",

I was driven. That drive did take me to places that I wanted to go. And along the way, personal crises happened that showed me a different aspect of success.\nI heard about the Out of The Cold Program. At first, I was just a bit intrigued with the Program. It sounded like a nice thing to do. It came at a good time. I was looking for something but wasn\u2019t sure what. I thought about how the homeless were viewed. Many of us consider them as invisible. We pass by them on the streets, see them standing at traffic lights, notice them begging outside the supermarket and often we just look right through them and keep on going. I decided to stop and do something.\nAs I got more involved, I found myself being pulled in more and more by these people that I used to just pass by. Their stories were heartbreaking. They talked about job loss, divorce, fleeing abusive situations, suddenly finding themselves in desperate situations that they had never imagined and finding themselves hoping for and depending on the kindness of others \u2013 all those things that we sometimes close our ears to. At the same time, I was struck by the optimism that many of them still had, their enthusiasm for life and living, believing that it could and would get better, even though they had virtually nothing. Their generosity of spirit and sharing touched my heart. They talked about the God of Hope, the same God that helped me spiritually and rescued me from my plight.\nThe Program ran during the winter time only. But there were still more seasons that these people had to get through. It didn\u2019t seem right that I would know about the situation, but not do anything about it. I asked a host of volunteers to help keep the Program running year-round and with their big hearts they readily agreed. The program is fortunate to have such giving volunteers.\nThe response has been even more than I could have for. I have had some amazing support. I have been interviewed by CTV three times, thus far, which has helped enormously in generating awareness for the program and indeed bringing attention to the continuing plight of the homeless. It is great to see that the newscasters and productions staff that I have been fortunate to work with have a huge heart for the less fortunate. Together we can all make a difference.\nThis situation definitely needs more attention and I am grateful to have the opportunity to write this article as an additional means of providing awareness of not only the situation, but also the humanness behind the faces of those that humanity has seemingly forgotten.\nIt\u2019s great to see members of the financial world come together to help the less fortunate. It is an industry in which a lot of good people have more than enough means to give back and help make a difference in the lives of those who are struggling and wondering where their next meal is going to come from and if they will have a safe place to sleep. I received a generous donation for a colleague in Toronto which helped enormously to top up the efforts I am able to provide.\nI count myself lucky and privileged to be able to give to the homeless. In return, they have given me so much more. They have literally given me a whole mountain\u2019s worth of gold with their appreciation and willingness to allow me into their lives. There is no price you can put on that.",

The three Pyramids: Cheops (Khufu), Chephren (Khafra) & Mycrenios (Menkaura). The Great pyramid was built by King Cheops (IV Dynasty). King Chefren, the son of Cheops, built the second Pyramid and the third pyramid was built in the reign of \u201cMenkaura\u201d, the son of Chefren. The mysterious Sphinx, with its mask of Chephren and body of a Lion, stands Close by guard of the land of Pharaohs.

        "raw_content": "Thread title: Do writers give their knowledge too cheaply?\nI am a member of a number of freelancing sites where I look to see what projects are on offer.\nFrequently I am amazed at the payments that are being offered as a recompense for the work. All to often there are posts that state they are only prepared to pay a set (low) fee for a set number of articles.\nWhat amazes me more is that people actually bid on these jobs. I know that many will say that the bids are from people who do not have English as a first language, and they are struggling to feed their families, because they come from the poorer regions of the world.\nHowever this creates a dilemma, all writers from which ever country they come from have had to study English to reach an acceptable level, but the quality of the work is often poor.\nBasically what I am asking here is do people who consider themselves good writers have a minimum set fee that they will not go below.\nWhile it would be good if the writers of this world could all come together and say enough is enough, our knowledge and expertise no longer comes cheaply, I doubt that it will ever happen.\nWhat are your feelings on this?\nShould writers continue to accept low paid work, or should a message be sent out loud and clear to potential employers that slave labor and articles mills are old hat and writers expect a good payment for their knowledge.\nIf you look around here (or do a search) this topic has come up several times, domino214.\nThe online auction marketplace includes many bidders who can work for less than what is considered a living wage in the West. Some examples include those in BRIC or developing countries, those who have lower, few or no expenses (i.e., live with parents, a spouse or someone else who supports them) those who look on the odd writing task as a relaxing hobby.\nIf you are a serious writer it is difficult to earn a decent living from the auction sites, if the payment expectation is $5/500 words of immediately useable copy. At that rate, you'd have to churn out 6000 words/day to make US minimum wage--about 24 pages.\nBut then, most serious writers do not rely on the auction sites for the bulk of their work. In fact, most serious, professional writers don't even use the auction sites to fill in, as the time you spend bidding on low paying jobs would be better spent finding clients who will pay you appropriately. This is true for any kind of independent professional, for that matter. $3/word may be more than you can expect if you're just starting out. $0.20 or $0.25 shouldn't be.\nI'm a novice in the field of freelance writing and spend now not so much time on it and i do hope that in the near future my income will increase.\nYou're absolutely right, domino214. Writers do price out their services way too cheap. Will this ever change? The answer to that is, not likely.",

        "raw_content": "Here's another port we'll be visiting on the Mediterranean Cruise meant to entice you to join us!\nCruise ships dock at the Port of Piraeus, about seven miles from Athens. An important port since antiquity, it's actually made up of three harbors: Megas Limani is where cruise ships come in. The harbor is located right in the center of Piraeus and there are plenty of low-key diversions there: shops, some upscale boutiques and some offshoots of chains like Britain's Marks and Spencer, the Archaeological Museum of Piraeus and plenty of tavernas.\nBut we will want to see the famous city of Athens, Greece, the birthplace of civilization.\nIf you don\u2019t want to do an excursion (although if you\u2019ve never been to Athens before this is one place you should) you can take the metro into the city for about 1.40 euro each way. Once you're in Athens, you'll find it a wonderfully walk-able city. You\u2019ll want to see the Acropolis and the iconic Parthenon (perhaps the region\u2019s most recognizable historic monument.) Athens is a city of neighborhoods all pretty much centered around these two national treasures.\nStart at Syntagma Square in Athens Central (where you can also watch the changing of the guards every hour on the hour \u2013 where else can you see guys carrying guns wearing skirts with pompoms on their shoes!), from there, wander into my two favorite neighborhoods; the Plaka, (in the shadow of the Acropolis Plaka is like a village within the city), and Varvakios, which is the home of a huge food market for any foodies coming along. The neighborhood surrounding the Kotsa Plaza is a \"locals\" part of the city -- it's also the sight of some ancient ruins, such as coffins, which were dug up by developers by mistake. The developers were then required to stop digging, but the coffins were just left there! The plaza itself has lovely, lush gardens.\nMake sure to check out Ermou Street off Syntagma which has designer goods and boutiques. For souvenirs and handicrafts, there is a flea market street off Monastiki and the Plaka area as well.\nHere\u2019s something for you to work on between now and April; when entering shops and restaurants, it's considered polite to say \"kalimera\" (kal-ee-meh-ra) for good morning, \"kalispera\" (kal-ee-speh-ra) for when it's not morning, and \"efharisto\" (ef-har-is-to) for thank you.\nFor all pricing and info see:\nWe've only got several more weeks where I can sell from this block of cabins. After that the price goes up. We'd love to have you join us!\nLabels: group travel, Mediterranean Cruise, Mediterranean Sea",

        "raw_content": "Team Canada Sochi 2014 Blog: Rick Lang\nBy Rick Lang (Team Canada national men\u2019s coach)\nORIGINAL SOURCE: http://www.curling.ca/blog/2014/02/15/team-canada-sochi-2014-blog-rick-lang/\nToday\u2019s game against Great Britain had a little bit of everything, but I was really proud of the guys to hang in there for the win.\nMembers of the Canadian men\u2019s hockey team, back row, join Team Jacobs supporters on Saturday at the Ice Cube. (Photos, CCA/Michael Burns)\nIt was uncharacteristic of the guys to play the way they did; they just couldn\u2019t quite make the big shot. I certainly thought we had most of the ends under control, but when the opportunities presented themselves, we kind of let them off the hook a couple of times, and I think the guys would agree with that assessment. In the end, David Murdoch had a shot to win and I think we got extremely fortunate there. But, we had two rocks that picked in the 10th end as if it was hairs from a hair brush. It wasn\u2019t like they just overcurled. They picked almost off the sheet!\nGreat Britain skip David Murdoch checks out his shot with Canada\u2019s Ryan Harnden, top, and E.J. Harnden looking on.\nSo kudos to the guys for making David throw his last shot. Nothing\u2019s a gimme in this game; it was good that they were able to bear down and not give up in that game even though they were frustrated with their own performance.\nI worked with Brad\u2019s team at the Ford Worlds last year in Victoria, and since then I\u2019ve noticed they\u2019re certainly maturing, growing and developing. They\u2019re unusual in curling because they play better when they\u2019re amped up and stoked than when they\u2019re not. I know some people criticize them for that, but it\u2019s not fair. That\u2019s what works for them \u2014 high energy, staying pumped and maybe even a little bickering. It just keeps them on edge, in the game and fired up and in the game. They\u2019re always walking that line, and some outsiders think it\u2019s maybe too much or that they should perform differently. But I\u2019ve seen teams with all different kinds of personalities. Some are super calm and think that stuff is just a waste of energy. Others need to be totally stoked.\nIt was very cool at the rink today to look over and see the Canadian men\u2019s hockey team. Tom Coulterman and I actuality had lunch today with their coaching staff. Mike Babcock, Claude Julien and Lindy Ruff. We got to talk a bit, and told them they were glad they were coming to our game because it would inspire the guys. And I probably told them to get Patrick Sharp of Thunder Bay into the lineup!\nNational men\u2019s coach Rick Lang, right, speaks with Ryan Fry.\nWe have tonight off, and then we finish off our round-robin tomorrow against the U.S. and China. The U.S. team has my buddy teammate Al Hackner as their head coach. That\u2019ll be really cool; it\u2019s more fun than anything else. We\u2019re still the best of friends after all these years; we play together at the club and hang out together all the time. We\u2019ve been hanging out here, going out after games and sharing experiences. That\u2019ll be fun being beside him at the coaches\u2019 table.\nRemember to watch us on TV! Our game against the U.S. starts at midnight Eastern on CBC, and our game against China starts at 10 a.m. Eastern on TSN2.",

        "title": "Eclipsed \u2013 Ten Thousand Days of Gratitude",
        "raw_content": "Photo: Fabian Oelkers\nThis past weekend, the world witnessed the longest blood red full moon lunar eclipse that will likely occur in my lifetime. Sadly, I was in a part of the world where I did not get to witness it live. But, I am grateful for the NASA feed that allowed us all to watch it, globally. The last time I saw a lunar eclipse in person was in London, at the great Old Street flat of some dear friends from University days. It is a moment that is forever imprinted on me.\nWhen I was younger, I played Delores Claiborne in professional acting school. I remember that Delores killed her pedophile of a husband under a full moon lunar eclipse. And, when I studied yoga, and spent time in India, I remember learning that eclipses are considered times of bad luck and that one ought to pray and avoid being out when an eclipse is underway. This past week, I read up on the meaning of this particular eclipse \u2013 according to astrology \u2013 and was mortified. It was meant to dredge up old wounds and pain and be an overall and completely really bad time. In short, the earth was going to open and swallow us whole. Or something to that effect.\nI tried to understand the metaphor of the eclipse in Delores Claiborne and while I\u2019m good at creating metaphor, I\u2019m not always so great at deciphering it in other people\u2019s work. All I could come up with is that when the normal patterns of our lives are placed in shadow, we have a chance to truly see the contours of our lives \u2013 the landscape, in relief \u2013 and when we see something we cannot abide, this moment can be an impetus to make great changes. When the light returns, it can be like the dawn of a new day in our lives. It can be the start of a new chapter in our lives, so to speak.\nAs the eclipse reached totality, I decided to meditate as best I could, given that I was sitting at my desk and it was lunch time. I set a few intentions and the biggest intention was simply to just let it all go. All my limiting thinking, all the expectations that others have placed on me and any emotion that wasn\u2019t helping me to move forward towards realization \u2013 for just one moment \u2013 I let them all go.\nAnd the weight that was lifted from me was palpable.\nI find that in life, time takes time. No, I\u2019m not starting on a series of posts based on obscure song titles of stars of the 1960s. What I mean by this is that life changes in sometimes startling and monumental ways but those big shifts are preceded by long and sometimes agonizingly painful periods of deep work and processing. We mark time by the changes that happen, not by those long periods that precede it. So, time takes time. My life, and my process of self development is ordered in this way. I\u2019m happy to learn that another close family member also operates in a similar way. I thought I was the only weirdo in the tribe that makes changes in geological time frames. Change happens all of a sudden after lots of processing, like tectonic plates suddenly unleash an earthquake after rubbing against one another for hundreds of years.\nPerhaps introverts operate in this way. I don\u2019t know. I know that I do, and I\u2019m an introvert. I am an INFP and even amongst the introverts I know, I score the highest on the Introvert measure of that Myers Briggs classification. When I am working on something \u2013 be it a move across the world, or a new phase of life, a new career, or a decision to marry or cohabit \u2013 whatever it may be -you will see very little happening above the surface. But, inside and invisible to the world, major shifts are occurring. The world sees only the earthquake, not the rubbing of the plates against one another. That can leave people thinking I am impetuous, when there is nothing further from the truth. I am measured and deliberate to a fault.\nThe eclipse of this past week reminds me that what appears to the eye is deceptive.\nAs the eclipse reached totality and I let so many things go from my psyche, I had a glimpse of a different way of being. I\u2019ve spent years stuck in the crush of two tectonic plates. Some of that pressure is dissipating. A space is being created that is creative and as I turn inward and focus on that space, the pressure mounts again between what is and what might be. I\u2019m kind of excited about what may come. It might show up in a month, or a year or in a few years. I have no way of knowing how long this process will take. But, I\u2019m now in a process \u2013 one of weighing and sifting and imagining and refining. There might be some tremors as I test out new ideas. There may not be. It may all come as a massive shakeup. But what I do know is that the space I am creating now is sacred.\nI will take my time. Before I moved to North America, I took my time. From the outside, it may have looked like I was stalled or not moving forward but that all depended on where you set your gaze. While one thing stopped, great progress was made in other areas and I had inner work to do on several areas of my life and I needed to sort out how I felt about many things. I learned a lot about myself in that stillness.\nAt this time, I notice that some \u201cthings\u201d are falling away. When I come to these seminal moments in my life, I see that some things just no longer fit with where I\u2019m going. Recently I let go of a relationship and I thanked that person for the years that we were friends. The fact that the friendship no longer fits does not take away the fact that at a particular time and place, it was valuable and important to me, and so I am grateful. I wished him well, and I meant it. I\u2019m grateful for the crazy energy of that earth-swallowing eclipse that has helped me to see some possibilities of how things could be and that I am finally willing to let go of what no longer fits. I\u2019m grateful for the weight that it has lifted off of me.\nI spent a joyful weekend with a friend and her family. We painted and drank wine and talked and the weekend was both about where we had been and our limitations and where we were going and our challenging those limits. Our lives are very different, but just because we have little in common outwardly does not mean that our human experience is not shared. While she is a decade younger than I am, I\u2019m grateful for her sage advice and for a really lovely sense of sharing and community that I sometimes lack in being an expat trying to make new friends in what little spare time I have. And in turn, I\u2019m glad that I could be a cheerleader and a witness to her as she broke through something that had been a limitation for her.\nI\u2019m not really sure what this moment in time will reveal \u2013 I think that is something that can only be seen in retrospect. But, what has become clear is that living a life of purpose, meaning and joyful gratitude eclipses most obligations and other people\u2019s expectations that are putting pressure on the tectonic plates of my inner landscape. Where there is a mismatch of the old features of both my inner and outer landscapes with what I can envision for myself, I\u2019m really okay with letting them go.\nSomeone once said to me that it takes great courage to be naked when we take off the cloak that no longer fits us so that we may don a finer set of clothes. If we rush to put on that new set of clothes, we will likely reach into our closet and all that is there are more outworn duds. We need to be willing to be naked for a time, so that we can tailor our next set of finery for where we want to go. If we are to be vulnerable like this, we also need to establish strong boundaries and initiate self care as we dream, process and rub our tectonic plates together.\nI see this as the first word of the first line of a new chapter in my life, and I\u2019m ready for a new set of finery and I\u2019m okay to let time take time.\nPhoto: Roberto Nickson\nFor what are you most grateful, right now?\nReply\tPaula August 1, 2018 at 4:28 pm\nI am grateful for MANY things. One of the biggest gifts I\u2019ve received over the past few years is my unfolding in mediumship, so I am most grateful in this moment for that.\nReply\tTania D. Campbell August 3, 2018 at 2:13 pm\nI\u2019m so glad you have many things for which you are grateful. Many people struggle in moments to find one. Blessings on your continued unfolding!",

        "raw_content": "Story by: Dan Abnett and Mark Paniccia\nArt: Rod Whigham and Jack Snider\nCover by Rod Whigham and Joel Naprstek\nSarah and John have separate showdowns with Terminators.\nSarah faces off against the female T-1000 at NetWork Developments and manages to destroy it with a freezing compound from the chemical analysis lab, the melee ending with an explosion that destroys the company's Simi Valley headquarters while Sarah escapes.\nMeanwhile, the remaining T-800 rises from the wreckage of the van in the desert, but Mossberg takes it down with a bazooka.\nReuniting at another of the Salceda family's hideouts, John and Sarah come to the conclusion that the rise of Skynet is inevitable...but they have a new plan.\nBesides the pistol, Sarah appears to have taken an Uzi submachine gun from one of the feds on page 3.\nOn page 4, panel 5, Sarah's narration describes the H&K running out against the T-1000. \"H&K\" is a reference to Heckler & Koch, a German gun manufacturer, though at this point, she is only holding an Uzi, which is not an H&K weapon. Possibly the narration refers to the pistol she picked up on page 3, but she also seems to have emptied and discarded it on that same page.\nIn the chemical analysis lab at NetWork Developments, Sarah stumbles across a flask labeled 27B/6 which she throws in desperation at the T-1000. The solution from the shattering flask turns out to have instant freezing properties that damage a small part of the poly-alloy surface. Sarah finally finds a drum of the solution and takes down the T-1000 with it. \"27B/6\" is likely a reference to the 1985 dystopian comic film Brazil, in which form 27B/6 is required in order for any work to be done by repairmen from the Department of Public Works (the film's scriptwriters conjured the nomenclature from the address of George Orwell when he was writing his famous dystopian novel 1984; he lived in Apartment 27B, 6th Floor).\nOn page 7, Blythe, in shock after the attack by the Terminator and the van crash, is mumbling the words of the old nursery rhyme \"Ring Around the Rosie\".\nOn page 8, Mossberg picks up a bazooka from the wreckage of the van. Recall that Sarah said she'd tell him where to pick up some weapons and supplies on the way to the mountains back in \"Judgment Impaired\".\nOn page 11, it seems that the hideout in the mountains is another one of the Salcedas' places.\nOn page 12, John appears to have changed out his Public Enemy t-shirt for an Iggy Pop one.\nIn the last panel of the story, it's revealed that John has saved the head of the T-800 that attacked Mossberg's van. It's possible that he plans to use it in his and Danny's plan to create a long-term virus that will inevitably destroy the yet-to-be-born Skynet.\nSarah and John's conclusion that the development of Skynet is inevitable nicely sets up the events of Rise of the Machines in 2004, but a full 8 years before that movie was released!\nThe T-1000 that appeared in Judgment Day was supposed to be a one-of-a-kind prototype. So how did Skynet manage to send the one we see throughout Cybernetic Dawn? Later, in \"Dead Men Walking\", we'll see two of them, the one that goes back to 1995 and is seen in Judgment Day and one that impersonates resistance member Griff and infiltrates John's unit at the end of \"Father's Day\".",

        "raw_content": "This year I have decided to focus, predominantly, on book recommendations, which brings us to my first reviewed book of the year, recommended by David Dubrow\u200b.\nGenre - Horror/Crime-Thriller/Suspense/Vampire\nWritten by Ken Preston\u200b\nTagline: \"Get ready. Joe Coffin is on his way. And he's mad as hell.\"\nOn the day that Joe Coffin, hitman for Birmingham gang The Slaughterhouse Mob, is released from jail he has nothing but murder on his mind.\nWhile inside his wife and young son were killed, and now he is out for bloody revenge.\nThe problem is, Coffin's enemies are circling, and his wife might not be quite as dead as she should be.\nIf you are like me, you are probably wondering what's up with the \"Season One\" on the book cover. Let me explain in the author's own words...\n\"Joe Coffin is a vampire horror story and a gritty gangster thriller, written TV style in episodes and seasons. If you liked Breaking Bad and Dexter, and if you prefer your vampires bloody and brutal then you will love Joe Coffin...\"\nSeason One is episodes 1 - 4.\nI am not sure if the tv series format is Preston's idea or not, but I am in love with Preston's style. He has written an extremely fast-paced, character-driven story that does not shy away from anything!\n(You know the author means business when a ten-year-old kid gets his throat torn open in the first chapter/episode of the book!)\nPreston immediately draws you into his story, and his writing is very realistic. (You feel as if you are a part of the story, as if it could actually be true.)\nPreston is also a Master of suspense! (there are several \"hold-your-breath\" moments)\nI also enjoyed the names of each chapter, and I hope to see more of Mr. Corpse & Mrs. Stump - two very intriguing side-characters.\nAs for Coffin, he is the perfect protagonist to the story. For you comic book fans, he reminds me of 'Joe Fixit' which is funny, considering that shortly after I told my wife that, Preston wrote the line, \"The man was huge. Paint him green and rip his trouser legs off at the knee, and he'd be the Incredible Hulk.\" (too funny!)\nIf you have an e-reader or a book app, I encourage you to visit the author's website: kenpreston.co.uk - who knows, you may even get a free copy of Season One!\nSeason Two (episodes 5 - 8) is already out, so you can expect a future review of that book, guaranteed!\nIn the meantime, someone needs to turn this series into an actual television show, pronto!\ufeff",

        "title": "Great Municipal Golf, Part 1: Shennecossett Golf Course",
        "raw_content": "Great Municipal Golf, Part 1: Shennecossett Golf Course\nThe term \u201cmunicipal golf\u201d invariably conjures images of inadequately maintained, overcrowded, poorly designed layouts. Unfortunately, in many instances, the stereotype fits.\nThe perception of what a municipal golf course is can be so pervasive that munis which deserve accolades and should be sought out by golfers looking for an affordable, interesting, and pleasurable experience are often bypassed and disregarded.\nIn this ongoing series I\u2019ll be chronicling some of the best municipal golf courses I\u2019ve encountered.\nShennecossett Golf Course, Groton, Conn.\nIn the 1990s a major golf magazine proclaimed Richter Park Golf Course in Danbury, Conn. one of the best municipal layouts in the country. With the pronouncement, suddenly this relatively unknown course was bestowed golf royalty. In reality, the selection was a joke. Richter Park wasn\u2019t the best muni in Connecticut, never mind the country.\nThe Griswold.\nHad the selection committee journeyed down Interstate-95 to Groton, Conn., they would have found situated close to where the Thames River meets Long Island Sound, Shennecossett Golf Course, a 1919 Donald Ross gem. The course, which existed before the Ross design, was originally part of The Griswold, a grand hotel located across the Thames in New London. The hotel no longer exists.\nAt the time, Groton and New London were summer resorts for the wealthy. For that reason man of the top golfers in the country traversed the Shennecossett layout when the hotel was in its heyday.\nFor a time, Max Marston, the 1923 U.S. Amateur Champion, played his summer golf at Shennecossett. Glenna Collett and then Glenna Collett Vare, one of if not the greatest American female amateur golfer ever, won the Shennecossett Invitational more than once. The 1923 tilt featured, according to the Hartford Courant, \u201cFour of the Nations Most Brilliant Women Golfers.\u201d Collett, the reigning U.S. Women\u2019s Amateur Champion, downed Edith Cummings, \u201cthe Fairway Flapper,\u201d in the finals. Audrey Faust and Anita Lihme were defeated in the semis. Cummings would unseat Collett as amateur champion later in the year.\nMarion Hollins, Walter Hagen, Bobby Jones, Tommy Armour, Francis Ouimet, Babe Didrikson and Arnold Palmer have also teed it up at Shennecossett. Alex Smith and Harry Cooper were club professionals there.\nGroton purchased the golf course in 1969.\nShennecossett (peak rate of $49) has undergone significant modifications since the Ross layout opened but it still retains the majority of the holes he designed and, as a result, the flavor. The four new holes added by architect Mark Mungeam in 1997 were required when the town agreed to trade land with the Pfizer Corporation so the company could build a parking lot. Lost were holes five, six and part of seven. The wonderful green complex of the original 7th survives.\nA 1919 painting of Shennecossett.\nIn exchange, Pfizer gave Groton a parcel of land close to the Thames where holes 15-17, designed by Mungeam, are located.\nOther alterations were necessitated by the rerouting including the abandoning of one of the most uncomfortable Ross par-3s, I\u2019ve ever played, the original 11th, a sharply uphill hole of 120 yards to a green so severely tilted back to front that even with green speeds hovering around seven feet on the Stimpmeter it was all but impossible to hold a chip from behind the putting surface. Mungeam adeptly used the tee of the 11th, eliminating the green and combining the hole with the original par-4 12th, to create a testing par-5, now the eighth hole. He also added the par-3 ninth to replace the 11th.\nWith the original routing, golfers did not return to the clubhouse until they played the 13th hole. Now, the 10th tee is very near the first tee.\nMungeam\u2019s work is solid. The 16th (pictured at the top) is one of the most scenic holes in Connecticut. The green almost appears to hover over the Thames. It is the Ross holes, however, that are the stars.\nAdding to the enjoyment is the work superintendent Eric Morrison has done in his tenure, returning the conditions at \u201cShenny,\u201d as the locals call it, back to firm. Morrison added drainage, cut back on the frequency of irrigation, removed trees, which has all lead to the improved health of the turf from tee to green. He no longer frequently mows out-of-play areas, allowing grasses and other flora to grow up which lends a seaside feel to the round.\nIronically, a round at Shennecossett begins with Ross breaking two of his cardinal rules of design on the first two holes. The tee shot of the par-4 first crosses a road (a no-no) and the approach shot of the par-4 second is over railroad tracks (another no-no) that are still used. The tee shot of the original 13th crossed the same road as the first hole.\nEven with those supposed transgressions, the talent of Ross as an intricate and creative designer is immediately apparent on what is considered one of if not his only links-style works.\nThe third green with the fourth green in the background. (Photo Eric Morrison)\nI love the par-4 third hole. The green tilts from front right to back left and a tee shot that flirts with the dangers of fairway bunkering on the right sets up the preferred angle for the approach. To the right of the putting surface, but set back some 20 yards, is a bunker that appears at first glance to be out of place. On further assessment, though, the sand hazard is in the perfect location to guard against the player who approaches the green from well right of the intended line. Those who think they can outsmart Ross by putting their drive into the fourth hole thereby avoiding trouble off the tee soon find it is nearly impossible to have the next shot clear the dastardly bunker and still hold the green.\nThe fourth hole is a memorable Ross par-3. Playing 208 yards from the back as it did since the day it opened, the green is perched atop a natural knob some 20 feet above the tee, creating a Volcano Hole. Even with today\u2019s club and golf ball technology, hitting and holding the green, which appears to be the size of a postcard, is a daunting task on calm days and nearly impossible in the ubiquitous wind. Then, as today, shots that miss the green right, long or left can tumble 20 yards or more down the slopes. Bogies of the double and triple variety are not uncommon. In the two dozen or so rounds I\u2019ve played there over the last 15 years, I\u2019ve never seen a birdie at the fourth.\nLike any good golf courses, Shennecossett reveals itself the more you play it. It takes more than one round to realize greens welcome approaches from specific sides while repelling shots that come from the worst angles. Putting surfaces might appear benign at first, but while not undulating, they have plenty of movement.\nThe 13th green. (Photo Eric Morrison)\nThe green of 13th is one of my favorites. On the front right there is a subtle rise that can stop a rolling approach from reaching the intended goal. The back third is a shelf, perhaps a eight inches higher than the rest of the green, with the right side tilted to run golf balls into the rough. The left middle portion of the putting surface falls away enough so that misplayed shots are directed into a bunker.\nAfter the three new Mungeam holes, the day ends with the par-5 18th. Ross designed it as a par-4 that played to what is now a practice green and that originally created a dangerous situation with its close proximity to the clubhouse and first tee. Mungeam expertly extended the hole to a par-5 and built a green that keeps those golfers waiting to tee off on no. 1 out of harm\u2019s way and those playing the hole interested until the ball finds the bottom of the cup.\nWhat Ross produced, above all else at Shennecossett, and to which the Mungeam holes fit, is a golf course that is fun to play, not because the strategy is apparent with \u201ceverything in front of you\u201d but in all respects because it is the opposite of that, the opposite of the two mundane Rees Jones layouts at Lake of Isles (peak rate $199), part of the Foxwoods Resort just down I-95, the same road that takes you to Shennecossett. It is a golf course that rewards the player who possesses the greatest variety of shots and who approaches each swing with a sense of awareness and creativity. As with any layout that borders ocean waters, the circumstances can transform quickly and dramatically providing Shennecossett with ever-changing conditions and golfers with ever-changing challenges and boundless enjoyment.\nTOPICS: Conn.

        "raw_content": "Club vs. Lower Sideline\nBy miket12, October 2, 2013 in TICKETS & TRADING FORUM\nmiket12 0\nI'm taking my Dad to a game and we've never been. He never gets to go so I don't mind spending a little bit more money...does anyone have any thoughts on the outer Club level sections (like 305, 312, 330 etc) vs the Lower Level Sideline (108/109 and 134/133). I'd like to give him the best experience possible, and would appreciate any advice\nAbsolutely positively go with the lower level sideline. For the club seats you get a padded seat that is about 2 inches wider. In very bad weather, it is nice to have the ability to go inside to stay dry/warm. For the extra cost associated with the club seats, it just is not worth it. Maybe if the club seats included food/beer like they do at the Indians games. But for Browns games, you still have to pay full price for everything & it is simply not worth it. However, for the game day experience & to watch the game. anywhere in the lower level between the 30's should be awesome. I don't like sitting real close to the field. Anything above rows 10-15 is ideal for me as you get a better perspective of the plays as they develop. Being right on top of the field, you will not have the same abilities.....Just my $.02.\nMy .02cents is the opposite. I sit in 330 and think it is worth every dime.\nIf you are paying face value, I'd much rather sit in Section 108/109 on the fifty yard line for $85. As opposed to sitting in the clubs which start at $126 around the goal line and goes up to nearly $300 per seat at the fifty yard line. Sorry, I'd rather be closer to the midfield, closer to the action, & have that extra money to do whatever you want.........Again, to each their own.\nI disagree. I've sat in the clubs several times- for 3X the money, you get better food, bars, restrooms, and a heated spot behind the stands if it's cold. Not worth it, IMHO. Especially the last couple rows of Club seats- unless you don't want to ever bother bringing rain gear to a game. I won't argue the first three rows of clubs between the 30s are totally awesome- but they also have an awesome price tag.\nI'll take the last 3 rows between the 30s lower deck anytime. $85 face value, out of the weather, and I can knock on the floor of the owner's box.\nIt isn't about agreeing and disagreeing. He asked for an opinion. Me, I like the better food options, the better bars, conditioned air one can retreat to if it is hot or cold, and from what I can tell it is a more courteous crowd. For the most part, this is my tailgate spot as I plan on being in there as soon as the gates open.\ncharliewen 0\nCongrates to everyone involved, and yes, we are the best club",

This book was enchanting & gut wrenching all at the same time. This is a very dark time in American History but reading a story that is beautiful and hopeful makes this dark time period have some light.\nI was immediately drawn into the story of Sarah, what she did for the men and women fleeing north, you pulled for her, you cried for her & you cheered for her.

        "raw_content": "The \u201cFighting Nun\u201d defends Pope Pius XII\nCHARLESTON \u2014 Sister Margherita Marchione has been given many titles in her 80 years, but her favorite is \u201cdefender of Pope Pius XII.\u201d The \u201cFeisty,\u201d \u201cLiterary,\u201d \u201cCrusader,\u201d \u201cIndependent\u201d nun has taken on the mission of educating Catholics about the pope that served from 1939 to 1958. Pope Pius XII is widely criticized for his silence during World War II.\nSister Marchione is working on her fourth book dedicated to spreading the truth of Pope Pius XII\u2019s intentions and actions during a horrific period of time. She brought her truth-spreading to the Lowcountry last week and says she\u2019ll go anywhere to tell the truth. She spoke at the Citadel, Bishop England, St. Peter\u2019s in Beaufort and Stella Maris Church on Sullivan\u2019s Island Nov. 5-7.\nAt Stella Maris, a diverse crowd of families, the old and the young, numbering about 175, listened to the story of a petite woman with a big voice.\nIn 1957, she met Pope Pius through a friend, his niece.\n\u201cI still feel his presence,\u201d she said. \u201cWhen I think of [him], I feel inspired. His piercing eyes penetrate my soul, and I still see his tall, dignified stature along with his brilliant glance, his loving smile, and animated gestures.\u201d\nHer order, the Religious Teachers Filipini, has been in Rome since 1707. Several years ago while in Rome, she learned from the older sisters how they hid 114 Jewish men, women and children in their convent. Amazed with their stories, she began researching and recording them. That was December 1994. In the late \u201990s a barrage of literature, which garnered much media attention, condemned the pope for not publicly speaking out against the Nazis during the war.\nSister Marchione says it was impossible for him to do so without a retaliation that would escalate the already unconscionable killings. An instance in Holland, which is debated by both sides of the controversy, proved further killings were connected to the Catholic Church speaking out. A letter from the pope to the Dutch bishops condemning Nazism resulted in 40,000 deaths, among them, according to the sister, was St. Edith Stein.\nPope Pius before his papal election was Cardinal Eugenio Pacelli, Vatican Secretary of State. As such he reportedly sent 60 protests to Germany between 1933 and 1939.\nA major point of contention in the Pius XII debate is his signing of the Concordat with Germany as cardinal. The \u201cFeisty Nun\u201d said, \u201cHe signed the Concordat with Germany in order to protect Catholics and the church. Hitler signed the agreement on July 20, 1933, promising freedom of religion. Five days later he abolished the Catholic Youth Movement and forbade the publication of Catholic newspapers and religious processions. Supplementary decrees to the Nuremberg Laws of September 15, 1935, canceled civic rights of Jews, abolished voting rights, and Jewish civil servants were forced into retirement.\u201d\nThe situation escalated after that, leaving Jewish professionals jobless, the handicapped sterilized, instigating \u201cmercy killings\u201d and eventually Hitler\u2019s \u201cfinal solution.\u201d\nSecular newspapers and Vatican radio repeatedly printed and aired statements of the pope\u2019s condemnation of Hitler and Nazis.\nSister Marchione said, \u201cThe pope\u2019s first encyclical, Summi Pontificatus, condemned racism and totalitarianism. He sent many protests, personally signed, to the German foreign minister and to the German ambassador. One was so damning that is was included in the official documents used against the Germans on trial at Nuremberg.\u201d\nOne dissenter claims that within this encyclical, Pope Pius never mentioned the Jews. The sister, to the contrary, said, \u201cParagraph 48 not only explicitly uses the word \u2018Jews,\u2019 but does so in the context of condemning Nazi racism by quoting St. Paul: \u2026 \u2018Where there is neither Gentile or Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, barbarian or Scythian, bond nor free. But Christ is all and in all\u2019 (Colossians 3:10-11).\u201d\nThis same dissenter claims that there are no witnesses or accounts to the fact that the pope gave orders to help save Jews.\nSister Marchione said, \u201cDid she not consult the over 900 pages of sworn deposition for Pius XII\u2019s cause for beatification?\u201d\nThe chief rabbi of Rome, Israel Anton Zollli, wrote in his 1954 memoirs, \u201cBefore the Dawn,\u201d \u201c\u2026 The Holy Father sent by hand a letter to the bishops instructing them to lift the enclosure from convents and monasteries, so that they could become refuges for the Jews.\u201d\nSister Marchione had a Religious Teacher Filipini, Sister Domenica Mitaritonna, write her personal account for the record. She wrote: \u201c\u2026 during the period of the war 1942-1943, I was living at 16 Via Caboto, Rome, and assisted two or three Jewish families who sought refuge in our convent. They were welcomed with immense hospitality by the Superior who had been solicited by the Vatican to help them.\u201d\nThe accounts are endless. Sister Marchione has had people randomly contact her, upon discovering her work, to share their own story.\nHer favorite was from a professor at the University of Rome: \u201cHe recalled a childhood memory from when he was 6 years old. His family was taken into a convent, and his parents warned him to be leery of strangers. One day he was saying his Hebrew prayers aloud. When a stranger entered his room, he immediately shifted to the Ave Maria.\n\u201cHis family was there until June 5, 1944, when he went out into the streets and saw American soldiers giving out chewing gum and chocolates. It was the first time he saw chewing gum.\u201d\nFor Sister Marchione, personal accounts and various records make up a truth that is indisputable.\nShe said, \u201cDuring World War II evidence had to be destroyed lest the Nazis found it, but we have the testimony of thousands of people.\u201d\nShe encourages education on church history for Catholics, beginning in schools.\n\u201cAt Bishop England I could tell by their reactions they knew nothing about what the church did,\u201d she said, but she was encouraged by their exuberance. \u201cTheir interest and enthusiasm is something I\u2019ll never forget.\u201d\nThis move toward education and truth is to combat what the sister called \u201can important issue affecting the magisterium of the church.\u201d\n\u201cWithout failing to be Christian, we Catholics must make a strong defense of Pius XII, who remains a target for what has been perceived by some as his \u2018silence,'\u201d said Sister Marchione, who listed some important statistics.\nSixty-seven percent of European Jews were killed during the Holocaust; in Italy, 85 percent of the Jews were saved. The number of Jews saved has been sited by historians to be between 860,000 and 2 million.\nOne Jewish survivor, Carlo Sestieri, who was hidden by the church said, \u201cOnly the Jews who were persecuted understand why the Holy Father could not publicly denounce the Nazi-Fascist government. Without doubt he helped avoid worse disasters.\u201d\n\u201cI\u2019m 80 years old, but I still feel I have a lot to do,\u201d said Sister Marchione. \u201cWe have Catholics believing without investigating. We need a concerted effort (to amend this situation). With God\u2019s help I\u2019ve done what I can do. In unity there is strength; I challenge you and ask you to do something.\u201d\nFor the spirited sister and defenders of Pope Pius XII, he wasn\u2019t silent at all, but rather spoke loudly through his actions.",

If the richest country in the world refuses to eradicate poverty how can we expect any other country to eradicate poverty?\nhttp://www.un.org/millennium/declaration/ares552e.htm/\nLike the United Nations' Universal Declaration of Human Rights itself, these are pious and hypocritical proclamations intended to deceive us into thinking action will be taken to make these proclamations a reality when in fact no means is put into place to force compliance with the goals and objectives of these statements.\nHad the amount of money that has been spent on militarism and wars over the last fifteen years been allocated toward ending poverty, instead, the goals and objectives would have been realized.\nAre we going to tolerate the G-20, led by Wall Street, to continue squandering the wealth of our nations on militarism and wars?\nIf not, we had better consider that we need to challenge Wall Street and its junior partners around the world for political and economic power.\nIn order to accomplish this requires a broad-based anti-imperialist movement with political parties of the working class that understand it will take specific measures, not meaningless proclamations the issuers never intend to implement, to end poverty and make a more peaceful world.\nHere it is 2015 and now these same leaders of capitalism have extended their \"goals\" and \"objectives\" to 2030... we are being played for suckers and fools.\nWall Street's profits from militarism and wars alone would be enough to eliminate poverty from the face of the earth.\nRead it; study it; share it... organize struggles to achieve these goals and objectives because no Wall Street bribed politicians are going to implement any of this:\nWelcome to another year of employer harassment, intimidation, firings, poverty wages, rising prices and more of these dirty imperialist wars as Wall Street celebrates greater profits with the politicians intent to saddle us with increased gas taxes.\nLet's celebrate another year of deteriorating air and water quality, inadequate housing and attacks on public education with increased racist police brutality.\nBe thankful your problems aren't worse; this is all part of the price we pay for Wall Street providing us the opportunity to live in the world's greatest bastion of democracy.\nDon't worry; be happy. This is the way it is, and always will be... or so they say.\n2015 was to have been the year poverty was to have...",

The occasion was the Architects and Engineers for 9-11 Truth press conference announcing the group had surpassed 1000 signatures from licensed building professionals calling for a new investigation into the destruction of the three World Trade Center buildings. Griffin was a keynote speaker.\nRichard Gage and David Ray Griffin\nShawn Hamilton (SH): \u201cHow do you account for the apparent psychological resistance even among members of the alternative media\u2014who should know better\u2014to even looking at the evidence?\u201d\nDavid Ray Griffin (DRG): \u201cIn one sense it\u2019s obviously a big mystery because these are people who\u2019ve been on the forefront of exposing American complicity\u2014you know, if we talk about Howard Zinn, [Noam] Chomsky; we\u2019re talking a long, long time here, so I never criticize these gentlemen because they\u2019re heroes; they\u2019ve done what they\u2019ve done; we wouldn\u2019t be here without them and so on. Some of the younger guys? I don\u2019t know. Some of it is, I think, fear. I\u2019m not talking about fear for their lives although I\u2019ve heard of people who\u2019ve said, \u2018yeah, I\u2019m afraid for my life,\u2019 but I don\u2019t think that\u2019s the main thing. It\u2019s more a fear of, well, job loss. That\u2019s a big one for reporters. I talked to a reporter who had done one nine eleven story and so I said, \u2018Well, are we going to get another one out of this lecture,\u201d and he said, \u2018I don\u2019t think so. I don\u2019t think my job would survive one more story.'\u201d\n\u201cThen, more generally, loss of reputation. The effectiveness of this term \u2018conspiracy theory,\u2019 \u2018conspiracy theorist\u2019 and that no member of the press can be a conspiracy theorist because they\u2019re supposed to be objective, even if objective means parroting everything the government says. In our day that\u2019s what counts for objective.\nBut if you parrot what somebody says who\u2019s espousing what is defined as a conspiracy theory, which in the definition that I gave earlier means a theory that contradicts a theory the government has already spoken on, then that a conspiracy theory in the negative sense and very few reporters could survive in their jobs if they explicitly said that.\u201d\nSH: \u201cI understand that for the mainstream media, but what about the alternative media? There\u2019s a split even at KPFA. They don\u2019t want to touch this. They don\u2019t even want to look at it. I\u2019m not saying believe it, just look at the evidence.\u201d\nDRG: \u201cThat\u2019s the next step down. They\u2019ve been so effective with this scare tactic that even to give an open microphone to a conspiracy theorist means give them credibility and that means there\u2019s something wrong with you. So, Shawn, I\u2019m not sure that you\u2019re going to fit in here in our future plans. So, you know how it works; everybody in the media knows how it works: nobody has to be explicitly threatened; they just know the rules. Maybe they tried one story once and they said, \u2018Whew,\u2019 that story wouldn\u2019t go, certainly no story about nine eleven is going to go, so they learn not to do it.\u201d\n\u201cA third factor is, and some have explicitly said this, \u2018we in the left-leaning press spent years building up our credibility, and now you crazy nine eleven conspiracy theorists are destroying our credibility. Well, first of all, a big majority of the 9-11 movement is not on the left; they\u2019re on the right. They\u2019re libertarians and Republicans. Both Steven Jones and Richard Gage were lifelong Republicans, but this is the answer they give. I don\u2019t think that\u2019s just an excuse; I think they really do believe that [we threaten] things they\u2019ve worked for.\u201d\n\u201cSo from their point of view, it doesn\u2019t matter whether what we\u2019re saying is true or false; it\u2019s not expedient. It\u2019s not helpful to what they consider the larger cause of exposing other high crimes and misdemeanors. So they say, well, we lose our credibility here, then we can\u2019t do all this other good work, overlooking the fact\u2014I would say as a rabid member of the nine eleven truth movement, \u2018Look, this is the big story. This outstrips anything you could possibly be exposing from the last ten years or in the next ten\u2014probably unless we have another one, and if we do have another one it will be partly your fault because you didn\u2019t help expose this one.\u201d\n\u201cSo I just think that\u2019s a very poor answer, and for some people to say\u2014and I regret that Howard Zinn, who showed great courage opposing [Noam] Chomsky on this who would not read my book even though they\u2019re both good friends of Richard Falk. Richard Falk wrote to Chomsky and he said, \u2018I think you should read this manuscript. My friend David Griffin has been a great admirer of yours; he\u2019s built on your work. He would love to have a blurb from you. Chomsky wrote back and said Dick, \u2018No, I will not read your friend Griffin\u2019s book.\u2019 Howard Zinn read it. He wrote a blurb, and many people said, \u2018I never would have read your book except for the blurb by Howard Zinn despite the fact that he got flack from many friends on the left for writing that very innocuous blurb\u2014he was not endorsing my ideas, he was just saying this is a serious book. Even though he got a lot of flack for that, he came back and endorsed a second book, so I praise Howard Zinn for the courage he showed even though\u2014and I regret the fact that towards the end of his life he said, \u2018Well, nine eleven isn\u2019t too important. It doesn\u2019t matter too much what the truth is. I just think he made a terrible misjudgment in that.\u201d\nDavid Ray Griffin Interview (audio) Part 1\n\u201cOver 1000 architects and engineers have signed petition to reinvestigate 9-11 destruction\u201d (Associated with story #14 in Project Censored\u2019s currrent list/book, Censored 2011)\nPosted in 911, News media\t| Tagged AE911Truth, Building 7, censorship, David Ray Griffin, media resistance to 9-11, Project Censored\t| Leave a reply",

        "raw_content": "OCCLUDED FRONT DIFFERENTIAL ADVECTION\nThe cold front typically moves faster than the warm front. Because of this, the cold front overtakes the warm front over time. This can be analyzed when monitoring the day by day progression of a middle latitude cyclone. The front that is produced when the cold front overtakes the warm front is called the occluded front. The occluded front situation is very interesting to analyze when it comes to differential advection and the analysis of the air masses that make up the occluded front environment.\nIn an occluded front situation, the cold front is overtaking the two air masses that make up the warm front environment. In the warm front, warm air is advecting over cool air. When the occluded front overtakes the warm front environment, the occluded front will lift up both of these air masses.\nThe top diagram below shows the occluded front, cold front and warm front. The occluded front is the front closest to the low pressure center. As the occluded front matures, it will result in the cold and warm fronts being further away from the low center. Eventually the cold and warm fronts will lose their identity once they are too far from the low center and what will be left is a weakening low center along with an occluded front.\nThe bottom diagram shows a southwest to northeast cross section of an occluded front and the three air masses present in the occluded front environment. Where the cold (1) and cool (2) air masses meet at the Earth\u2019s surface is the position of the surface occluded front. The region of cool air (2) is the cool air that is out ahead of the warm front. The cold air (1) is the cold front that has wrapped around the low to the point that it is lifting the warm front. The region of air at (3) is the air that was once the warm air behind the warm front, that then lifted over the warm front, which was then further lifted by the occluded front. This air (3) has been lifted so much that it is no longer really warm but in the process of lifting there can be significant precipitation produced from this air, especially if it originated from a moisture source. The air at (3) has been labeled \u201cair that originally lifted over warm front\u201d to explain the process that this air went through to get where it is at.\nWhen analyzing from a differential advection perspective, there are three air masses in this example that are interacting in the occluded front environment. Each of these air masses will have different temperature, moisture and wind direction properties. Around the occluded front, one of these air masses (3) is no longer in contact with the Earth\u2019s surface. With the significant lifting that the air at (3) experiences, it is common to have precipitation along and out ahead of the occluded front boundary.",

        "title": "Through the eyes of another by C.J. Carter-Stephenson | The WiFiles",
        "raw_content": "Through the eyes of another by C.J. Carter-Stephenson\nSarah Timpson was a pretty girl of fifteen. Her friends called her Raven on account of her luxuriant black hair and melancholy dress sense. Heavy eyeliner, dark lipstick and gothic clothes were Raven\u2019s weapons of choice in a war against fickle fashion. Yet, her appearance wasn\u2019t the only thing that marked Raven out from other girls her age. Her parents had died in a car accident two years earlier, and as a result, she had an unhealthy fixation with death. Living now with her paternal grandparents in the Highgate area of London, she regularly sneaked into the restricted part of the famous local cemetery to sketch the majestic monuments or write poetry.\nSo it was that she came to be reclining against one of the cemetery\u2019s many crumbling Celtic crosses one balmy evening in June, watching the sun set and chewing the end of her pen as she pondered the contents of her latest poem. Surrounded by trees, far from any of the main paths, she could almost have believed she was alone in the world. This would have unsettled some people, but not her. In Highgate Cemetery she could forget the harsh realities of life.\nRemoving her pen from her mouth, she scribbled down a few lines of verse, and then paused, allowing her eyes to wander over the nearby gravestones. It didn\u2019t matter how often she came to the cemetery; its grandeur struck her every time. Her eyes widened in interest as they alighted on a dancing cherub fixed to the peaked roof of a nearby mausoleum. The statue, which appeared to be looking directly at her, was so realistic she could hardly believe it wasn\u2019t a living child.\n\u201cHasn\u2019t anyone ever told you it\u2019s rude to stare?\u201d she asked with a wry smile. The statue looked back at her impassively, locked forever in its carved imitation of enjoyment. \u201cFine, ignore me,\u201d Raven said softly. \u201cEverybody else does.\u201d\nShe shifted around, trying to get comfortable and went back to her poem, only to tut in irritation. For some reason, the words she was looking for seemed to elude her. They would come eventually, though. Writer\u2019s block never lasted long for Raven, and was usually superseded by a period of extreme creativity.\nAs she continued to rack her brains for inspiration, a strange light-headed feeling began to creep over her. She shook her head to try and rid herself of the feeling, but to no avail.\nSlumping over to the side, her gaze happened to fall once more on the stone cherub above the mausoleum. It seemed to leer at her with a new malevolence. She tried to tell herself it was just her imagination, but whatever was happening to her was making it increasingly difficult to concentrate. She could feel her head growing heavier and heavier, even as her sense of the world around her began to slip away. A moment later, her eyes slid shut and she lost consciousness.\nAt least, she presumed she had lost consciousness, though the dream she fell into seemed uncannily real. She was still in the confines of Highgate Cemetery, but in a completely different part \u2013 the sunken catacombs of the Circle of Lebanon. Night had fallen and the crypt doors were shrouded in darkness.\nFeeling uneasy, Raven wanted suddenly to leave the cemetery. It came as something of a shock, therefore, when she found herself heading away from the nearest exit. She was given no time to ponder her body\u2019s failure to respond to her commands, though, as at that moment, a stone came flying at her from out of nowhere, striking her squarely on the forehead. Her legs buckled under her and she collapsed to the floor. She pushed herself up onto her hands and knees, and was just struggling to her feet when she saw three male figures in dark clothing step out of the shadows a little way ahead. She forced her eyes to focus on the three as they stood looking at her. Although their faces were barely visible, she could somehow see the malice in their eyes.\nLaughing and whispering to each other in a way that chilled Raven to the bone, the men walked slowly forwards. Raven let out an involuntary yelp and backed away from them. Then, she turned and fled, aware from the pounding of footsteps on the gravel behind her that they were in hot pursuit. Her breathing grew heavier and she felt her heart thumping in her chest like a drum.\nHearing them gaining on her, Raven shot a glance over her shoulder. She was still well out of their reach, but for how long? Frantically seeking some means of escape, she headed off down a narrow turning to her left. She considered whether her best chance might be to hide in one of the crypts, but quickly dismissed this idea. Her pursuers were so close they would easily spot any such ploy.\nRaven didn\u2019t want to think about what would happen to her if she was caught, but was unable to shut out the terrible possibilities. Judging by the look on the men\u2019s faces, she would be lucky if she made it through the night alive. She was interrupted in these grim thoughts by a boot slamming into her back. Her feet slid out from under her and she found herself tumbling forwards with her arms and legs flailing madly. Hitting the ground with a thud, she felt the air rushing out of her lungs. She tried to ignore the sensation and scramble to her feet, but was prevented from doing so by a booted foot pressing down on the middle of her back, pinning her to the floor. She struggled desperately, but couldn\u2019t wiggle free.\nThe men stood over her, chuckling to themselves. There were a thousand obscenities she wanted to say to them, but she found that words were beyond her and all she could manage were inarticulate howls.\nThe man with the foot on her back pushed down painfully. She thrashed about, trying to shake him off, but it was no use. A second man crouched down beside her. \u201cAren\u2019t you just the cutest little thing,\u201d he whispered coldly, speaking the words directly into her ear, so she could feel his hot breath. The others sniggered.\nRaven craned her neck round, to get a look at the one who had spoken. With his scruffy blond hair and smooth face, he looked about her own age. She was on the verge of appealing to whatever passed for his conscience, when he curled his lips into a cruel sneer and spat in her face. The hatred in his eyes was tangible. Raven wondered what she could possibly have done to warrant such animosity. Did these men hate the entire female sex or was it something personal? Either way, there was no point pleading for mercy, as it was plain she wouldn\u2019t get it.\nShe lay on the ground in abject terror, waiting to see what her attackers would do next. Her breath came in short sharp bursts and she was trembling uncontrollably. Suddenly, she felt a searing pain in her left leg. The third man, who until that moment had been watching his companions from a distance, had stepped forward and was burning her with a lit cigarette. He held it against her thigh, seeming to take great delight in the smell of singed flesh. She felt the tears streaming down her cheeks.\nAt last, the cigarette was removed. Raven was about to utter a sigh of relief, when she found herself being lifted bodily into the air. She flung herself desperately from side to side, but the hands that held her were like iron and she couldn\u2019t escape. Never in her life had she felt so powerless.\nShe was just asking herself what her attackers planned to do next, when they sent her flying through the air towards a nearby wall. She raised her arms in an attempt to shield her head, bracing herself for the impending impact. When it came, it was infinitely harder than expected. She slid to the floor in a paroxysm of agony and awareness slipped away.\nComing around covered in sweat, Raven sat bolt upright and shook her head groggily. The things she had just witnessed had been so vivid it was hard to believe they hadn\u2019t really happened; so hard, in fact, that she began to wonder if it was possible she had been having some kind of psychic vision. Could it be there was a terrible crime taking place elsewhere in the cemetery at that very moment? The idea made her blood run cold and her immediate instinct was to run home as fast as she could. Then, she remembered the fear she had felt at the hands of her three attackers. There was no way she was going to abandon somebody in that kind of distress.\nBefore Raven knew what she was doing, she had pulled out her phone and was ringing her friend Liam. Liam\u2019s house overlooked the cemetery, so she knew it wouldn\u2019t take him long to reach her. It might have made more sense for her to call the police, but she knew how unlikely it was that her vision would be believed and she didn\u2019t have time to stand around trying to convince people. She bit her lip as the phone rang. Finally, she heard Liam\u2019s voice on the other end. \u201cHello,\u201d he said.\nRaven could have cried out in relief. \u201cLiam, thank God,\u201d she said with heartfelt sincerity. \u201cGet over to Highgate Cemetery as fast as you can. I\u2019ll meet you at the North Gate.\u201d\n\u201cBut\u2026\u201d Liam began.\n\u201cThere\u2019s no time for questions,\u201d Raven told him. \u201cJust do it.\u201d\n\u201cOkay,\u201d Liam said simply, hanging up the phone.\nRaven made her way quickly through the tangled undergrowth towards the North Gate, steering clear of the Circle of Lebanon. Reaching the grassy clearing in front of the gate, she concealed herself in a nearby bush to wait for her friend.\nBefore long, she saw him climbing awkwardly over the wrought iron railings, being careful to avoid the barbed wire at the top. As he dropped to the ground, he looked to either side of him, whispering her name. Darting out of her hiding place, she ran to meet him.\n\u201cWhat the hell is going on?\u201d he asked in a worried voice.\n\u201cThanks for coming so quickly,\u201d said Raven, her voice trembling. \u201cI\u2019m afraid I don\u2019t have much time to explain why I called you \u2013 a life may depend on us acting quickly. I was sitting writing a poem\u2026\n\u201cIt\u2019s kind of late for you to be up here on your own,\u201d Liam interrupted.\n\u201cAre you going to listen to me?\u201d Raven demanded.\nLiam apologized and she continued, \u201cAs I was saying, I was sitting here minding my own business, when I started to feel faint. Next thing I knew I had passing out and seemed to see myself being attacked somewhere else in the cemetery.\u201d\n\u201cAnd you were so freaked out by what you\u2019d dreamt that when you woke up, you phoned me, so I could come and get you,\u201d said Liam.\n\u201cNo, that\u2019s not it, and it wasn\u2019t a dream,\u201d Raven insisted. \u201cIt was something else.\u201d\n\u201cWhat?\u201d Liam asked.\n\u201cA vision, a premonition \u2013 I don\u2019t know,\u201d Raven floundered.\n\u201cSo you think you were seeing through someone else\u2019s eyes,\u201d Liam said, \u201cand this attack may still be going on?\u201d\nRaven nodded. \u201cHence the need to hurry,\u201d she said. \u201cCome on!\u201d\nShe started across the plaza in the direction of the Circle of Lebanon. To her surprise, Liam did not follow her. \u201cI don\u2019t know, Raven,\u201d he objected. \u201cIt sounds kind of far-fetched.\u201d\n\u201cThat\u2019s because you didn\u2019t see it!\u201d Raven exclaimed, seizing him by the arm. \u201cIt was as real as this conversation. Anyway, we\u2019re talking about somebody\u2019s life. If there\u2019s even a chance I\u2019m right, I think it\u2019s worth investigating.\u201d\nLiam didn\u2019t look convinced, but allowed her to lead him up the path. They moved quickly and made as much noise as possible in the hope that the sound of their approach would scare the felons into flight.\nThe Egyptian Avenue, which leads to the Circle of Lebanon, loomed into view ahead of them and they raced through into the sunken catacombs. \u201cIt\u2019s this way,\u201d Raven said in a definite tone, leading her friend off to the right. They hurried past the silent crypts, scanning the shadows for any sign of the three men or their victim.\nAn owl hooted somewhere and Raven convulsively clutched Liam\u2019s arm. They passed the place where her vision had begun and spotted a dark shape sprawled against one of the walls a little way ahead. At this distance, they couldn\u2019t tell what it was, but it looked about the right size to be a handbag. Drawing nearer, they saw something that made them stop in their tracks. On the wall above it there was a long smear of fresh blood. Raven turned her head away in disgust. \u201cI think we should get out of here,\u201d Liam said. Raven shook her head. She wasn\u2019t about to turn back now. Pulling him along behind her, she edged forwards.\nWhen they were finally close enough to investigate, Raven couldn\u2019t decide whether to breathe a sigh of relief or burst into tears. The thing on the ground was a dead cat. Apparently the vision she\u2019d had was a projection of the things this poor animal had gone through and not the experiences of a person as she had assumed. She should have been thankful for this, but she wasn\u2019t. Having shared in its fear and pain, she couldn\u2019t help pitying it just as much as she would a fellow human being. She looked down at it with tears in her eyes. Its tabby fur was streaked with blood and the look on its face was one of sheer terror. She couldn\u2019t understand how anyone could bring themselves to harm such a defenceless creature. Turning her back on it, she was about to start retracing her steps, when she heard a faint meow somewhere in the distance.\n\u201cWhat was that?\u201d Liam asked, looking nervously around.\n\u201cIt sounded like a cat,\u201d Raven replied. \u201cI\u2019ll bet our three killers have found another victim and are torturing it to death even as we speak. Maybe this time we can stop them in their tracks. Come on.\u201d Beckoning for Liam to follow her, she headed off along the path in the direction the meow had come from.\nLiam laid a hand on her arm and twisted her around to face him. \u201cWould you stop and think for a minute,\u201d he pleaded. \u201cEven if you\u2019re right, confronting three guys whose idea of a good time is hanging around cemeteries killing cats sounds like a seriously bad idea.\u201d\nPulling away from him, Raven pointed at the dead cat. \u201cLook at it, Liam!\u201d she exclaimed. \u201cLook at what they did to it. If you think I\u2019m going to skulk off home while it happens again, you\u2019ve got another thing coming.\u201d As if on cue, a second plaintive meow sounded in the distance.\nNarrowing her eyes at Liam in a look of reproach, Raven swung sharply around and continued along the footpath. Liam followed, but it was obvious from his muttered complaints that he was less than happy about it.\nAfter a while, they reached a junction. Raven was just asking herself whether she should take the right fork out of the Circle of Lebanon or continue ahead, when a meow to the right provided the answer. With a satisfied nod, she headed towards it.\nThe path deteriorated rapidly as they left the circle behind, but Raven refused to slow down. If reaching her destination in time meant stubbing her toe or being stung by a nettle, then so be it.\nSeveral further meows guided the pair onwards past an assortment of broken statues and ivy-covered headstones, until they came to a mausoleum in the style of an ancient Greek temple. Here, a particularly loud repetition of the sound told them to leave the path. Without hesitation, Raven plunged through the long grass. It was then that she spotted a light. \u201cIt\u2019s them,\u201d she whispered.\nAs they drew nearer, it became apparent the light was coming from inside a dense copse. Hardly daring to breath, they crept to the edge of the tree line and peered through. The men they had come to find were sitting around a fire, sharing a can of beer and ogling the pages of a smutty magazine. A number of neglected gravestones rose out of the ground around them, together with a statue of the Archangel Michael, standing proudly on a squat pedestal in an intricately carved suit of armour. The statue appeared to be missing a sword, but was otherwise in a reasonable state of repair.\nRaven stared at the three men in front of her, seeing again their earlier cruelty in the theatre of her mind. Then, she clenched her fists and strode towards them. She was vaguely aware of Liam asking her what she was doing in a hissing undertone, but she didn\u2019t reply. She couldn\u2019t tell him what she was doing, because she didn\u2019t know. This time, he didn\u2019t follow her.\nMomentarily startled by Raven\u2019s sudden emergence from the tangle of branches, the three men leapt to their feet to confront her. \u201cWhere the hell did you come from?\u201d demanded one of them \u2013 a gaunt individual with close-cropped hair.\n\u201cI came from over there,\u201d replied Raven, pointing over her shoulder with her thumb.\nThe man scratched his chin, apparently not entirely sure what to make of her. \u201cIs that supposed to be funny?\u201d he asked.\nRaven eyed him coldly. \u201cOf course it\u2019s supposed to be funny,\u201d she told him, \u201cthough I\u2019m guessing from your lack of laughter that you and I have a different sense of humour. It\u2019s the way of the world, I guess. Some of us like wordplay, others are more partial to tormenting small animals.\u201d\nThe man gave a nod of understanding. \u201cSo that\u2019s what this is about,\u201d he said. \u201cYou saw us goofing around with that cat.\u201d Raven glared at him, unable to believe the callousness of his tone.\n\u201cWhat\u2019s the matter little girl? Is the nasty man upsetting you,\u201d said one of the others, taking a sip of beer. This one was tall with ginger hair and freckles. \u201cServes you right for spying on us. The world hates a snoop.\u201d\n\u201cThe world hates murderers more,\u201d Raven retorted.\nThe ginger-haired man took another swig of beer. \u201cIf I were you, I\u2019d be more concerned about myself than some dead cat,\u201d he remarked.\n\u201cDamn right,\u201d said the first one. \u201cYou\u2019re all alone in the middle of a deserted cemetery. Who knows what we might do to you?\u201d\n\u201cShe\u2019s not alone,\u201d said Liam, finally plucking up the courage to join his friend. He folded his arms and made a valiant attempt to look threatening.\n\u201cUh-oh guys, it\u2019s the big bad boyfriend,\u201d said the ginger-haired man sarcastically. \u201cI guess we should make a run for it.\u201d He pretended to tremble in fear, and then laughed maliciously. \u201cOn second thoughts, let\u2019s make him watch while we screw seven shades of shit out of his bitch.\u201d Finishing the last of the beer, he tossed the empty can at Liam, who dodged awkwardly to the side, narrowly avoiding being hit.\nLiam opened his mouth to speak, his face contorted with anger, but Raven beat him to it. \u201cWe don\u2019t want any trouble,\u201d she said, holding up her hands. \u201cWe just want the cat.\u201d\n\u201cDon\u2019t want any trouble?\u201d repeated the third man \u2013 the fresh-faced youth who she\u2019d considered appealing to for mercy in her vision. \u201cYou should have thought of that before.\u201d\n\u201cBesides,\u201d the gaunt man cut in, \u201cas we\u2019ve already established, the cat\u2019s dead.\u201d\n\u201cCat number one\u2019s dead,\u201d Raven agreed. \u201cI\u2019m talking about cat number two.\u201d\nThe men looked confused. \u201cI hate to break this to you,\u201d said the gaunt one, \u201cbut there is no cat number two.\u201d\nRaven gulped. Something in the man\u2019s voice told her he was speaking the truth, which meant this whole confrontation was pointless. \u201cBut we heard it meowing\u2026\u201d she protested weakly.\n\u201cI don\u2019t care what you heard,\u201d the gaunt man grunted. \u201cThere is no cat number two.\u201d\nRaven licked her lips nervously, wondering what it was she and Liam had actually heard. She\u2019d assumed it was a living cat, but was it possible it was the ghost of the dead one? Either way, it had led them into a proverbial hornet\u2019s nest. Suddenly appreciating the danger of her situation, she took hold of Liam\u2019s hand and backed away.\n\u201cLeaving so soon?\u201d asked the ginger-haired man.\n\u201cI\u2019m afraid so,\u201d replied Raven, amazed at how calm she sounded. \u201cI\u2019ve just realized it\u2019s past my bedtime.\u201d Continuing to edge away from the three men, she felt her back press up against something cold and hard. She turned around and found herself looking at the statue of the Archangel Michael.\nSuddenly, an icy wind began to blast towards her. It was no ordinary wind, though. In its blustering she seemed to hear a cacophony of whispered voices, like the restless souls of the cemetery speaking to her from beyond the grave. Much of what was said was muffled and indistinct, but one word came across time and again \u2013 \u201cRevenge!\u201d\n\u201cWhat\u2019s going on?\u201d asked Liam as the three cat killers were swept off their feet and came sliding across the ground towards them.\n\u201cDamned if I know,\u201d said Raven, \u201cbut I suggest we move.\u201d She darted to the side, pulling Liam along with her, just in time to avoid the whirling men.\nThe wind died away and the fallen men clambered to their feet in front of the statue of the Archangel Michael, looking confused. Raven watched them for a moment and then glanced at the sky. It seemed to be getting darker.\nAs she turned her attention back to the scene in front of her, something unbelievable happened. Flexing its stone muscles, the statue of the Archangel Michael stepped down from its pedestal. A fiery sword had appeared in its upraised hand and its eyes were pulsating with preternatural energy.\nRaven supposed she should have been afraid, but she wasn\u2019t, somehow sensing that the statue meant her no harm. Liam didn\u2019t appear to be scared either, though his jaw was hanging open in disbelief. The cat killers, on the other hand, were cowering before the statue like terrified animals caught in the headlights of an approaching car. Even when it became apparent the statue was preparing to attack them, they didn\u2019t move. It was as if they had fallen into some kind of trance.\nRaven watched in horror as the statue\u2019s blazing sword came arcing downwards. Whilst she despised the men for what they\u2019d done, killing them was wrong. It wouldn\u2019t bring their feline victim back to life. It would simply cause pain and anguish to their families.\nThe ginger-haired man was the first to feel the blade\u2019s sting. As it touched him, his body burst into flames. The heat was so intense that Raven found herself being driven back from it, even as the sword continued on its downward trajectory, tearing through the man\u2019s head and torso like a knife through butter and splitting him in two.\nJerking convulsively, the two halves of his body fell away from each other and thudded to the floor in a sea of flames. His skin had already burnt away entirely and the gristle beneath was bubbling ferociously, sending clouds of acrid smoke billowing up into the air. Soon, all that remained were two burnt-out slabs of putridness, which had lost so much of their shape and consistency they were barely recognizable as human remains. Then, there was only ash.\nThe flames died away and the statue turned its attention to the man with the youthful face. Raven could see the terror in his eyes, but he still didn\u2019t move; not even when the statue\u2019s terrible sword pierced his heart and he erupted into flames. Raven shuddered. The fire was insatiable, devouring flesh and bone with breathtaking speed, leaving nothing behind but a pile of cinders.\nAs soon as the fire went out, the statue lifted its sword to strike out at the remaining man, but this time Raven was ready. Placing herself directly in front of it, she grabbed hold of its arm with both hands. For a moment, it seemed uncertain what to do, then it slapped her across the face with the back of its free hand, sending her flying through the air into a nearby headstone.\nBy the time she\u2019d picked herself up, the man she\u2019d been trying to save had shared the fate of his companions. She cried out in frustration, but the statue seemed not to hear. Rising to its feet, it resumed its former position in the centre of the pedestal, its flaming sword vanishing.\nLooking at it then, it would have been easy to dismiss its violent attack as a product of her own imagination, had it not been for the residual ash. Those pathetic remains confirmed that this was no mere statue. It was a bona fide angel of vengeance. Not to mention a vicious killer, and she was its unwitting accomplice, having brought its victims within its reach. No doubt the emotive vision and the sound of the second cat had been a deliberate tactic to lead her to do this. Such things must surely be in an angel\u2019s power, or if not an angel\u2019s, then the master it served. And what of that master? What of God Almighty? She had never really believed in Him before, but she believed in Him now; believed in Him and hated Him. This travesty of justice was His doing, just as the death of her parents had been His doing.\nBanging her fists against the statue\u2019s chest, she turned her eyes to heaven and cried out at the top of her voice, \u201cIf you\u2019re listening, God, know this \u2013 I despise you. You\u2019re supposed to be loving and forgiving, when really you\u2019re cruel and unkind. I only wish you were here right now, so I could spit in your face.\u201d\nFeeling Liam touch her on the shoulder, Raven turned to face him, so she didn\u2019t see the statue\u2019s flaming sword reappear. Nor did she see it come sweeping down towards her.\nWhatever its true origins might have been, the statue believed it was a genuine angel, and it would not tolerate blasphemy.\nC.J.

        "title": "EU\u2019s position on \u2018Ireland\u2019 is neither coherent nor constructive \u2013 This Union",
        "raw_content": "As with the British paper, the EU filled a great deal of space referencing the Good Friday Agreement and emphasised the importance of the peace process, but it pointedly refused to \u2018put forward solutions for the Irish border\u2019. \u2018The onus to propose solutions\u2019, it said, lies squarely with the UK.\nWhat the commission didn\u2019t say directly, but its negotiator Michel Barnier acknowledged in a press conference, was that the UK did propose solutions that the EU has, in short, rejected out of hand.\nThe British paper made it clear that the government sees no need for a so-called \u2018hard border\u2019 from its perspective, and that attitude makes a lot of sense.\nIf the UK hopes to trade freely across the world after Brexit, there are persuasive arguments for dismantling barriers to commerce as comprehensively as possible. That\u2019s before we consider the political sensitivities around placing \u2018customs posts\u2019 and \u2018checkpoints\u2019 at the Irish border.\nWhatever Mr. Barnier might claim, the UK government is responsible only for arrangements on its side of the border.\nIf the EU insists that elaborate infrastructure is needed in the Republic of Ireland, to protect the customs union or the single market, then that is the EU\u2019s responsibility. Barnier\u2019s summary dismissal of the British outline for further dialogue means Brexit supporters will, understandably, point to another example of the type of bureaucratic inflexibility that justified the \u2018leave\u2019 campaign in the first place.\nOf course, the two sides are engaged in a negotiation and the two papers on Ireland can\u2019t be untangled easily from the broader strategies that both the UK and the EU27 are pursuing.\nBritain\u2019s document clearly intended to pin responsibility for any hard border on Brussels early in the process: the message is that if there are customs checks and physical barriers, it will be thanks to the EU rather than the UK. The Commission\u2019s \u2018guiding principles\u2019 try to refute that suggestion, but a lack of counter-proposals make its argument less unconvincing.\nThere are probably other factors influencing the stroppy tone of Brussels\u2019 document too.\nEU negotiators are desperate to force the UK to make a substantial payment, as part of the process of leaving the EU. Depending upon whose interpretation you accept, this is either a settling up of accounts to which Britain was previously committed, or a punitive, unreasonable charge.\nIn an attempt to strengthen their position, EU negotiators have insisted that they will not discuss a possible post-Brexit trade deal until the UK promises to pay. And although the Northern Ireland peace process is supposed to stand above this haggling over cash, most of the issues around the border are connected intimately with customs and commerce.\nBrussels doesn\u2019t want to say it outright, but it refuses to work through the practical problems in Ireland until there\u2019s an agreement with Britain on money.\nThe EU\u2019s vague references to a \u201cunique solution\u201d for the island are calculated to sound like the \u201cspecial status\u201d within the European Union that nationalists have been demanding for Northern Ireland. Usually, this status is described as a way of keeping Northern Ireland inside the single market and the customs union, by completing border checks on routes between Northern Ireland and Britain, rather than Northern Ireland and the Republic.\nIf the EU is alluding to that type of arrangement, which is flagrantly unacceptable to any notion of national Sovereign unity, it could be another manoeuvre, designed to persuade Britain to accept preconditions around trade negotiations. It may also be a way of expressing solidarity with the Dublin government, which has responded to Brexit by reopening the \u2018national question\u2019 rather than focusing on addressing the practical threats confronting the Republic\u2019s economy.\nIf the \u201cunique solution\u201d is actually a genuine bid to pick apart the UK\u2019s mandate to leave the EU and keep Northern Ireland within the single market, it\u2019s a spectacularly ill-conceived and irresponsible strategy.\nA power-grab that might put trade barriers between Northern Ireland and Great Britain, in order to prioritise a closer relationship with the Republic, would obliterate the constitutional settlement formalised through the Good Friday Agreement: running against all the platitudes and fine words in support of the peace process.\nCertainly, Guy Verhofstadt, the EU Parliament\u2019s Brexit coordinator, spent much of his visit to Belfast this week encouraging the idea that Northern Ireland could stay in the customs union and the single market after Brexit. He even suggested that voters in the Northern Ireland might elect MEPs through the Republic of Ireland\u2019s electoral system, although it wasn\u2019t clear whether he\u2019d discussed this delicate aspect of Irish sovereignty with Leo Varadkar.\nUnless Verhofstadt is particularly badly informed about Northern Ireland, he must know that this type of intervention is insensitive at best and at worst looks like an attempt to stoke separatism in the UK.\nNext month, the EU27 will meet in Brussels to decide whether there has been sufficient progress during the first tranche of negotiations to open talks on future trading arrangements.\nPerhaps, if the two sides come closer to agreeing about money, then their discussions on Ireland will start to flow more freely.\nFor the time being, the EU has taken the contradictory position that the border is an issue for \u2018phase 1\u2019, yet it refuses to discuss any of the critical matters around trade or customs that are affected by \u2018phase 2\u2019 and are essential for managing the border.\nIt\u2019s reasonable to urge the UK to be \u2018flexible and imaginative\u2019 about the Irish border, but the UK doesn\u2019t have a responsibility to accommodate endless inflexibility and lack of imagination from the EU.\n@3000Versts, Brexit, Guy Verhofstadt, Owen Polley",

        "title": "Object-Oriented, Like It or Not | Tilted Symmetry",
        "raw_content": "Object-Oriented, Like It or Not\nIn a former life I was a teacher of Art and English. It was a valuable experience that taught me a lot about the organization of thoughts and ideas. Every teacher has a different approach. Some teachers begin by entering their class and talking about what they know, while others first spend time preparing a syllabus, with outlines, main topics, and clear starting and stopping points. Either method can be effective under certain conditions. If you were to attend a seminar that lasted 3-4 hours, it\u2019s very possible that you would benefit equally from either teaching method. If, however, you were to attend a college course that had 30 sessions lasting 2-3 hours each, which teacher would you prefer to have? The teacher with syllabus and clearly defined topics is likely going to be much easier to follow. Additionally, since that teacher has broken down their discipline into logical building blocks, you are likely to come away from that course with a very structured understanding of the subject matter, which will give you the ability to go much further, and much faster.\nThe shoot-from-the-hip teacher would probably run out of things to say before the end of the first week. Nevertheless, there are some who may have chosen this teacher, and I don\u2019t blame you. After all, who doesn\u2019t love free time, am I right? Seriously, sometimes a teacher who can just sit down and talk about a subject matter like they\u2019re just having a cup of coffee with you, can be much easier to learn from. I have had at least one teacher who taught casually and seemingly unprepared, but nevertheless effectively; that teacher was the best I\u2019ve had, ever. Nevertheless, not only are the good ones an exception, they are also an illusion; just because a teacher seems like they haven\u2019t prepared a structured approach, doesn\u2019t mean they haven\u2019t. I argue that any teacher who trains their students effectively, and equips them with the subject matter thoroughly, does so partly, even largely, through the process of organization and structure. Sometimes the best organization and structure will sneak up on you like it was never there.\nSo anyway, long-winded speech to make a simple point. Coding is a lot like teaching, you\u2019re just not teaching a human. You are, however, teaching a computer, which knows far less than a human, and assumes far less as a consequence, which is both good and bad. You are also leaving a trail of information for other human teachers (coders) to pick up on later, and therein lies one of the primary reasons to make sure that you\u2019re code is organized.\nIn the years that I\u2019ve spent learning PHP, one of the major challenges I faced was deciding whether I wanted to continue learning PHP. I\u2019ve heard a lot of criticism of the language in the professional developers circles, one of the primary criticisms being that it\u2019s not an object-oriented language. To many PHP developers, this comment is like fingernails on a chalkboard. The PHP development community is predominantly made up of procedural developers who could care less that PHP may or may not be strictly OO, and they\u2019ve made a lot of decent arguments for procedural development. Understanding the two sides of this debate can be tricky because, as would be expected, procedural developers are obviously going to argue for procedural development, and object-oriented developers are usually going to argue for OO development. However, among the arguments that I\u2019ve heard that I consider to be the most objective, from either side, the verdict tends to be, that whichever method you choose should depend predominantly upon the project, and as a general rule, when dealing with larger development projects, the more that your methods are object-oriented, the better off you\u2019re going to be.\nWhen I first began understanding the concepts of OO methodology, I was just stepping into PHP5. I felt that PHP5 was pretty object-oriented, and I didn\u2019t really understand what some PHP critics were talking about when they said it wasn\u2019t (yes, many were talking about PHP4, but some were, even then, directing their comments toward PHP5). Since that time I\u2019ve worked quite a bit with javascript, and having now made a decent comparison of the two languages, I have a much better understanding of what an OO language is all about, and PHP5 is not extremely object-oriented when compared to languages like javascript or ruby. Nevertheless, I still believe you can build a strong OO application based on PHP if you know what you\u2019re doing.\nOne of the primary end results of object-oriented development, in my opinion, is simply organization. It just makes more sense, for example, to take all the code that pertains to the user and place it in a user object, rather than intermingle it with a bunch of other code.\nThere are many procedural developers who don\u2019t use classes to organize their code into objects, but do use files to accomplish some similar organization. For example, they may have a file called user.php where they place all of the code pertaining to the user. This is a very positive step in the right direction. However, the level of organization when using classes is still far better. Files give you the advantage of code separation, but they are still missing the advantage of trails. For instance, if I have a class called user, and somewhere in my code I have to refer to a user, I do so by creating a user object, like so:\nThen, if I need to refer to the user\u2019s name, I do that like so:\n$user->name = \"Johnny\";\nIf I want to refer to a group that a user is in, I could do that like this:\nif ($user->groups->member) echo \"Welcome back, valued customer.\";\nAnd again, if I wanted to refer to the permissions of a group that the user is in, I might do that like this:\nif ($user->groups->member->allowPublish()) {\necho \"Publish documents.\";\necho \"Sorry, but you are not allowed to publish documents.\";\nThis makes your code very easy to follow. Looking at the previous permissions check and reading from left to right, it\u2019s fairly straight forward to understand what we\u2019re doing, i.e. we\u2019re checking to see if the user is in a group called member that is allowed to publish. Even better, looking at the last member of that call, allowPublish, we can tell it\u2019s a function because it\u2019s followed by a set of parentheses, and now we have a good idea of where the function is located, i.e. it is a method of a class that handles groups, very likely a class called \u201cmember\u201d; assuming that we\u2019re using sensible variables, we\u2019re now on a fast track to fast tracking. If this were procedural programming, this function would most likely be sitting on a line by itself without any trail or clues for tracing, so the fact that it\u2019s a function would be all that we would be able to deduce.\nOO methodology is also designed to make your code much more reusable, because when executed properly it separates code according to its purpose. For example, perhaps you are creating a social news site which will allow your visitors to create accounts and publish news. For this project you will need to design various bits of functionality, such as:\nThe code that allows users to register, sign in, and write news articles\nThe code that sorts the news articles by category and publication dates\nThe code that formats all this information for viewing on web pages\nNow imagine that months after this project is completed and live, you are given the task of designing a photo gallery. This new project has very little in common with your prior project, namely user accounts, and perhaps some of the code that formats information for web pages. Trying to reuse your prior project to suit the needs of the current project is out of the question. If you want to reuse the user code and formatting code, you\u2019ll have to pull it out of your prior project and begin building upon it afresh. If you built the prior project procedurally, it is likely that sifting out the pertanent code snippets is going to be confusing, because chances are you have intermingled user code with input code with publishing code with database code with formatting code. On the other hand, if you built your site using OO methodology, you\u2019re almost certainly in much better shape. Applying OO methods to your prior project, you will have built a class for each bit of functionality, i.e. a user class for everything the user needs to do, a formatting class for all of the formatting that needs to be done, perhaps a news class for creating and accessing news, etc. To reuse the user and formatting functionality in your new project, all you need to do is cut and paste the user and formatting classes over to your new project. You might also need to sift out the few areas in the classes that access other classes; but if you\u2019ve done a really good job with these classes, chances are there are little, if any, areas that do that. Reusable OO code done well means clip, paste, and go. Reusable code reduces your long-term workload, which will either increase your profit margin or make you much more competitive.\nOO methodology is also famous for abstraction, because it makes it very easy to design generic objects with generic properties that can take on many specific forms during runtime. Anytime you define a variable in a class and outside of the functions in that class, that variable is understood by PHP as a property of that class. Also, any functions that you define in that class are understood by PHP as methods, or actions that the class can perform. These methods can perform their actions differently based upon how the properties of the class/object are defined. When a class is instantiated as an object during runtime, you can define a method for the class to define its own properties during instantiation, or you can define the properties of the object after instantiation from outside the object under certain conditions.\nI can speak from personal experience when I say that OO methods have made my job much easier and quicker. In a future article, I\u2019m going to take some time to explain my own approach to OO development in PHP.\nTVs & Chunks = BFF <3 \u00bb\nNo comments for \u201cObject-Oriented, Like It or Not\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Desire, seduction and consent: Writing, reading and the blurring of boundaries.\nI have been staring at this title for an hour now, and that might be a hint that I ought to change it. But there are still a lot of reasons why I'll keep it, and I keep listing more and more of them as I stare.\nDesire: Something makes people want to play, there is something about playing which Huizinga recognises as desire.. What does desire do to the games? Where's the limit to compulsion?\nSeduction: how do they seduce? What is the secret which holds people in the thrall of the games? Can there be something about the computer mediated communication which in itself is playful and seductive, making more than the limited area of the game into a playground?\nConsent: Consent is important to all play, simply because \"play is freedom\" (Huizinga).\nLooks simple. I guess I just have to start writing to see if it is.\nToday feels like spring. I won't pursue the subject, just try to sublimate this sensation into other pursuits, although this little bunny catched my attention. Eduardo Kac presents some impressively alternative works and ideas.\nComputer/video games are harmful for young girls, according to Children Now. The games show heroines with breasts larger than what a girl can have, waists more narrow than possible (well, I have seen what 20 years of living in a corset can do, it is possible) and a lot of exposure of cleavages and thighs.\n\"38% displayed those characters with significant body exposure: 23% exposed breasts or cleavage, 31% exposed thighs, 15% exposed behinds and 31% exposed stomachs or midriffs.\nIn addition, 38% of female game characters had \"large\" breasts and 46% had \"unusually small\" waists.\"\nThis will, according the Children Now, give children unrealistic ideas about how girls are supposed to look and behave.\nMy question is... Did it take the fear of computer games to make these researchers discover the Barbie Doll?\nJill mentioned a game in her blog, then Torbj\u00f8rn wanted to know what I think about the same game. That's peer pressure, and I crumble under it and check it out.\nMajestic is hyped up to be the game that steps over the limits to your reality and plays you. To quote from the page: \"You only use 12% of your brain. Mind if we play with the rest?\" This is, according to them, new. To anyone who has been reading reader-response theory, that idea seems less new and romantic - although it's a good catchphrase. Books, films, music - it all plays with our brains and makes us supply meaning, understanding - do our own \"gap-filling\". This game seems to play on that skill of gap-filling.\nIt's also supposed to be \"The Game meets the internet\" - with references to the film of a game breaking down the border to reality. This sounds exiting - but not exactly what Huizinga would call a game: \"Nevertheless........ the consciousness of play being 'only pretend' does not by any means prevent it from proceeding with the utmost seriousness, with an absorption, a devotion that passes into rapture and, temporalily at least, completely abolishes that troublesome 'only' feeling. Any game can at any time wholly run away with the players.\" While a game can run away with the players, this game doesn't threaten to do that unless you choose it. According to their FAQ the level of realism will be adjustable - that is, you will be able to choose whether the game will alert you that this is a game-related request or not.\nIt also looks somewhat like a live game in the presentation. But according to their site, the characters who will contact you are NPCs, run by the game. The live element applies in that you can choose to play in groups. The format of this game is less like a MUD or even Quake, and more like riddle-games where you can choose to solve the riddles alone or in company - more like a single-user game with a group of followers, like all those boys I keep finding in my kitchen, in front of the computer, going: try this! try that!\nNo, I am not evaluating it - I can't even play it, not being in the US. That doesn't make me less curious, though!\nThis is a site I loved, with its playful approach to topics which are both disturbing and attractive.\nSome mornings I have to approach work in degrees. This morning is harder than some. First I needed to feel like sitting still at the computer. I did that by logging on a game, to say good morning to a lot of friends. Then: get started writing. Luckily, the game has a message board where I could leave an IC story. That lead me to write some quotes from Huizinga on the ooc board... And here I am. Full circle. In time for lunch.\n\"Vocabulary has a central role here, because it is what weaves the tissue of habits, educates the gaze, informs the landscape.\"(1995:108)\nI have finished with Mark Aug\u00e9 (1995): non-places, and I sit here with an odd sensation of almost grasping something. Aug\u00e9 writes of how we create spaces which are not made into places by their lives and their history, but by language. An example he uses is the airport, and the airplane passing through the airspace of other countries. The airport is constructed into a space by signs, it's not a place where recognition comes to you from physical memory. In your home town, you know the way around, through a chain of connections which include your personal experiences and your network to those around you. There is a link to history and culture: \"The social space bristles with monuments - imposing stone buildings, discreet mud shrines - which may not be directly functional but give every individual the justified feeling that, for the most part, they pre-existed him and will survive him. Strangely, it's a set of breaks and discontinuities in space that expresses continuity in time.\"(1995:60)\nAirports, highways, malls, they are all places defined by directions, signs and regulations, not by \"monuments\" creating a sensation of connectedness. When on the airport, what you experience is a dis-connectedness. The people working there have no other life in your perception, the way they would if you saw them in the family-run restaurant in a small town, the exits change from visit to visit, you cannot follow the memory of you body when you make the twists and turns which will lead you to your destination.\n\"He was enjoying the feeling of freedom imparted by having got rid of his luggage and at the same time, more intimately, by the certainty that, now that he was sorted out, his identity registered, his boarding pass in his pocket, he had nothing to do but wait for the sequence of events.\"(1995:2)\nDoes computers and cell-phones make kids lazy?\nMy daughter plays three instruments, and is learning a fourth. My son plays football, handball, is an active table-top and live role-player, and playes the drums in two different types of bands. They both have a lot of friends, and love to go skiing, swimming or just hanging out with their friends. Their friends are equally active. Yes, it's hard to make them clean up their rooms, do laundry or dishes, or help out in the garden. But as I recall, my parents claimed it was impossible to get my help for that as well, and there wasn't a computer in that house as long as I lived there.\nPerhaps computers make some kids sit still instead of be physically active. That's bad because it will make the quality of their lives worse when they grow older and don't have habits which helps them maintain the body. But would they have been in better physical shape if they had spent their time in front of the television?\nOr do I have the most perfect children in the world, and all the others are lazy, bored and stupid, due to their excessive use of computers? Much as I love my most perfect children... somehow I doubt that to be true.\nI just finished reading a book I should have reviewed. My bad... I didn't finish in time. But at the same time - I wouldn't have done the book justice.\nHowever: Birgitte Holm S\u00f8rensen and Birgitte R. Olesen (ed): B\u00f8rn i en digital kultur is a collection of articles reporting from the project B\u00f8rns opv\u00e6kst med interaktive medier - i et fremtidsperspektiv.. It's a study of how children use computers in and out of the classroom, and how they interact when they work with computers, through observation and interviews.\nThe study is very interesting, but the reason why I feel I can't say much to shed light on the book is that my degree isn't in teaching, but in media theory. In these articles, the observations are about the children's responses and interaction with each other. The medium or it's channel, the computer, is just one more prop introduced in the classroom. The observers find that children use computers in different manners, and act differently around them, but I am left asking: why does this happen? Does this change happen as a result of the software, the hardware - or is this what happens when children are taken out of the normal class-room situation and offered a chance to cooperate in smaller groups? The study refers to a set of literature which I don't know, which perhaps would give an answer to the question of: \"Is this normal group-behavior, or does the computer add something different which an other prop would not add to the interaction?\"\nThe observations were fun reading though. And yes, it did confirm some of Sherry Turkle's observations that children enjoy the sensation of mastery and control over the computer. But *coughs* who don't? Jill, why do I blog? In my case... for control and discipline.\nOnline, communication patterns are all you have to judge each other by. When I realised that, the communication with others in different games went smoother on my behalf as well, as I learned to phrase my words more suitable to the role I played. An interesting interlude appeared however when I changed gender. The same administrators who had not trusted me as a woman, were delighted with me as a man. Reading Deborah Tannen, I suspect that my communication patterns are a lot more male than female. Online - I make a better man\nJournalism students. They deserve a few lines today, since they managed to shake me out of my comfortable thoughts about computer games and in this case females and aggression. Actually, this is about females and aggression as well.\nWith just the pretense of a knock on my door, two young pretty girls stormed my office, leaving a male colleague looking surprised and a little shy in the background. Trapping me in my chair, they introduced themselves quickly, and then started telling me what they wanted me to do for them... they had this case, a matter of a public relations officer (the head of the cinema in Volda) wanting to manipulate independent journalists (in the college newspaper) by asking that they did not make public a certain piece of news before a certain date. And they really needed me to be present in this forum (a journalist-student ethics discussion-group) while they discussed how public relations professionals attempt to manipulate journalists.\nBeing as bitchy as any young student girl can dream of, I told them that I didn't accept their problem as valid, that I did not wish to be present as a hostage while they stamped an entire profession as manipulators, and that their initial case was a matter of maintaining a good relationship to their sources, and sorted under journalist ethics and work-morals.\nThey left in anger, of course.\nFor me, the interesting thing here is my own reaction. The entire time while I told them no, I knew that had they approached me a little differently, I would have said yes. Had they paused long enough for me to say \"enter\" after they knocked, had they not entered my private space by rushing up to the chair and grabbing my hand, had they presented the case itself slower, and without telling me that \"we all agreed that what we did was right\", had their topic not been \"how journalists are manipulated by PR officials\" but perhaps \"Is there a conflict of interest between journalists and their sources?\" - if they had moderated their approach a little... I know I would have said yes. What I am left asking myself is - did I react like that because they were girls? Would I have let boys bully me into saying yes?\nAccording to Deborah Tannen, I would have accepted that behaviour in boys. But actually - no, I wouldn't. I have met my share of pompous caricatures of agressive journalists, storming my office to make me say something about what they consider \"a case\". Since these were two pretty girls, even I, a woman and a mother of a girl almost their age, thought: \"Oh, look at those enthusiastic girls, aren't they cute?\" Had boys behaved like that, the reaction would have been: \"what the \u00a4%&# do those idiots think they are doing in my office!\" Does that make me sexist? Yeah. And poor boys, they don't have a chance now the girls have the guts, the arrogance, the confidence... and the looks on their side.\nThis looks like an interesting blog... an other mudder... I feel related... - and definitely have to look those MUDs up. It's work. Right?\nIs this what we fear in the future?\nAn interesting link from Jill to a site called Internet and American Life shows that women are more likely to play games online than men are. While this is surprising as the \"gamer\" is immortalised as a male, socially dysfunctional geek, looking at the statistic twice should make it less surprising. It's been accepted knowledge for a long time that women use the net more as a communication tool for social activities, and playing online games is to many players, male and female, about being social rather than reaching high scores.\nAn other question is... what is games? I'd love to know the type or genre of the games these women play - that could say something about what they seek when playing online - do men and women play the same games, and do they even consider the same activities to be games?\n\"Gamers\" - there are many sorts, and some of them love dwarves and write articles about it. What shall I say? I am a cat and elf-person myself.\nTravelogs. that's what I was talking about. and I found one... yes, the net and the blogs suit the format better than any roadmovie.\nNon-places. Places which we talk about, which we pass through, but which does not take on the cultural meaning of a place, where the history isn't or history, where we do not experience the place as much as we experience out own presence. This is the kind of places Marc Aug\u00e9 discusses. Since I picked the book up to see what it could say about computers and computer games, I have been focusing on the sensation of the individual presence rather than the historical presence. But that's wrong, the net and computers very much build their places up around culture and history. There are entire wars fought over territory online.\nIf you look at the Sign Up Boards of Bianca's Smut Shack, which once was a friendly place for people who wanted to dream and share sexual fantasies online, you find that it has become a battlefield where fantasies and information has lost the battle against the flamers. So is it a place or not? For those who have established a circle of friends, a social status, a reputation connected to their personae through careful nurturing, even a sex-chat site can be \"a place\". For those who surf through it becomes a non-place, an other URL where they stop to empty the toilets of their mental caravans...\nAnd what are these blogs but a kind of travel-reports? The good ones, the ones you want to return to over and over to see what happens now, they are descriptions of a journey, not through geographical space but through time and digital space. But is it a non-place? Still a few pages to go... But for me, this book makes the geographical metaphor of the net stronger and more functional.\nJill's page gave me a good link today, and I keep peering at it, with the one good eye, and occasionally two. Stelarc discusses the body, and the body anaesthetised. I sit here in front of the screen with half my face numb after some minor surgery, the right eye won't shut properly, and I can't even smile... My face is a total stranger to myself when I can't control the miniature movements which are such an important part of my image of me. And in this state, I really wonder if the body anaesthetised is a good metaphor. After all, the human as a cyborg is the human extended, not diminished. Yes, we are in worse shape than our parents, from spending too much time in cars and in front of screens - but at the same time we are doing more than ever to retain the full range of functions of the body. Modern society doesn't accept a heart which isn't as perfect as modern surgery can make it, we operate eyes to obtain perfect vision, the perfection and presence of the body is more important than ever. To numb sensations is the opposite of this movements towards the perfect, alert human.\nPerhaps I misunderstood. Perhaps we really agree. I'll have an other look when the right eye stops tearing, and I can wink properly - and thus process information in functional intervals.\nI knew the truth had to be out there....\nAnd this blog posts the screenshot for the famous phrase, now reached mainstream fame after three years as an online underground recognition code.\nThere are things I am satisfied with being protected from by living in a deep narrow fjord in a tiny country with a language more or less well spoken by 4 mill. people. Although a certain mirth can be gleaned from reading about phrases like: All your base are belong to us. Everybody who have played cowboy and indians know that it's the way the indians speak. At least when it's translated into Norwegian. Through translating software, in this case Japanese-English, the indians have taken over the english language, and the cowboys, who never really did have such a firm grasp of english anyway, only making conversation with their horses, have finally lost after the indians allied with japanese game-producers.\nTuesday. Snow turning to sleet. Dark grey March. I am reading non-places by Marc Aug\u00e9. Aug\u00e9 makes me wonder what kind of place the net is? It's been described with machine-metaphors, but the most prevalent ones have to do with time and space. We surf the web, we navigate it like the seas, we live on it in a different time. Virtual time, virtual life as opposed to real time and real life. I will turn my back to the snow which is reducing my vision, taking away the view of the magnificent mountains I live among and leaving only the next building visible. And then I'll dive into the book and see if I agree, that in front of my computer, I am in a non-place.\nOK, I admit it, I took a break from being extremely goal-oriented and intellectual. That break I spent checking out what kind of party beast would match me! I ended up with a penguin, and yeah, at least he'd be dressed well!\nThe road to wisdom?\n- Well, it's plain\nKumbel (Piet Hein)\nNorske Rollespill has a page with links to the sites of different game-systems. Going through that list reminds me of the variety in roleplay-games, and what an industry it really is. The page is in Norwegian, but the links are easy to use and the sites they point to are in English.\nI am part of a project to write about role-play games and computer-games. Volda College, Norske Rollespill (Norwegian Roleplay-games) and The Norwegian Board of Film Classification are all part of the project. So far Volda College (that's me) is administrating and overseeing the writing and printing of a report written by a member of Norske Rollespill, and financed by The Board of Film Classification. The report is done, all that's left is an introduction by me, proofreading, a layout and printing.\nThis article is connecting Huizinga to a project called Burning Man. This looks like a very interesting phenomena to pursue for those who are interested in temporary or fluid communities. Burning Man looks like a mix between a party, a survival course and a live action roleplay-game, with a large group of people camping together in an extreme climate while in different ways commenting on/adhering to topics chosen for all for the experience.\nI am in a mood for random searches, and computers are made to accomodate such moods - searching for : \"hypertext games culture\" I end up with 1347 hits, and the first I check turns out to be an interesting list by Stuart Moulthrop cronologically presenting the events he feels are important to the scholarly pursuit of studying hypertexts. It contains works, but no games. I change the search to \"games cybertext\" and I narrow the search down to finding Markku's paper about some of Espen's concepts from DAC 98, and an interview with Espen from 99. It's still a small scholarly field, despite the size of the industry.\nAn alternative is to make up adversaries. We can have a Non Player Character for the opposition. That's a safe and comfortable option as long as the Administrators don't start playing the NPC. An NPC could be run by me or the Prince, and we'd control both our own characters and the opposition. A win-win situation on one level, but it wouldn't generate more roleplay for people outside of the court, or draw more players, ideas and challenges in. It's an interesting little problem - and it is a little painful as well. I like control. Giving other people more power will force me to give up some of that... but I have to if I want a game to play. The tension of the game needs to be maintained, to maintain the nature of the game. Looks like I'll return to Huizinga to look for ideas of how to maintain this play.\nIt's Sunday, and I have been carrying Huizinga's Homo Ludens with me all week-end. Instead of reading it, I have been thinking about the game. The court where I am second in command, is supposed to be custom made for inner conflict and intrigue. However, the character who's my main opponent isn't logging in to play - that makes the court static, I sit too safely as long as the prince sits. Even if he falls, I will most likely sit, or become prince. This isn't a situation which Et'Thalior can function with. So we need to create some inner conflict, but for that we need players who will both maintain their circle and want to play opposed to my circle. What I'll most likely do, is try to put some of my allegiants in positions where they have a reason and the power to undermine me. digging my own grave... or rather, the grave of my poor elf. There is no winning or losing in roleplay, if it were, I have already won, as I have reached several of the early goals. But winning would make the game end, and this is the never-ending story indeed - keeping the game flowing is more important than winning... and right now, Et'Thalior needs one more worthy adversary for its intrigues.\nAn other web-logger is born... Torbj\u00f8rn Lien is a colleague at Volda College, a cartoonist and general idler according to himself, and now - an other blogger. This is great, now I can watch him from my office, instead of walking five doors down the corridor, knock on his door and say: \"hey, how was your day?\" Well, I guess if I did that, I wouldn't get to read his inner dialogue, as I do now. Never knew the potential of all his voices...\nOne of the students from Volda is doing a \"Big Brother\" parody all of her own, lille s\u00f8ster (little sister). What she's doing is actually to log (a weblog!) her day-to-day events in her internship in the NRK-radio - Norwegian Broadcasting. The weblog is cute - but it made me wonder again about reality-TV, logs and games... On of my colleagues, Hans Martin, claims that the tension in \"Big Brother\" is created by the anticipation of the moment when the people in there can't play their roles any more. My reason for viewing this as roleplay is that they all play a role - they perform in a competition for the chance to win 1 mill N.kr - which is a little more than 100 000 $ (check the exchange rate here). His argument was that the tension is created by the fact that you can't stay in a role 24 hours a day for 100 days - and it's those slips the audience is looking for.\nThis is an interesting direction of thought. This points to the conventions of roleplay, and the conflicts and intrigues which can develop from mixing In Character and Out Of Character situation/information, it points to sports, where we are greedy for the details from outside of the arena which can influence an athlete's performance, and I am certain Richard Schechner could say something about the on-stage and off-stage of modern theatre or traditional performances outside the western culture which can shed light on this phenomenon. There's of course Erwin Goffman: The Presentation of Self in Everyday Life and his discussion of how we always play roles...\nI still don't watch it though. This is a dilemma. I am really curious about it, and I would love to figure out why it's so fascinating - it would make some great and boring lectures - but I have such a problem with what I feel is an abuse of people's intimate lives that I can't bring myself to watch it.\nA Friday that's as sunny as the childhood we all wish we had, and I started out early, hiding from the beauty of a landscape dressed for disrobing through the heat of the sun melting away the veils of snow over the ancient peaks surrounding the smooth mirror of the fjord.. See what it does to me to look out the window? I'll keep my eyes firmly on the computer, I promise. And the first thing I pounced on to escape nature romanticism today was a blog called: popular culture slut. This blog had an interesting link I couldn't leave unclicked, and I went to Rob's amazing poem generator to make a poem out of my blog. And here it is - the torillsin.blogspot.com-poem:\nLike one of the vodoo-dolls of Mr Bungle, Julian Dibble's A Rape in Cyberspace comes back to haunt me. Ever since I read it, it has bothered me. How can there be a rape? And of course, there is no clinic rape. But there is an act of abuse, or most seriously, the power and control of some players over their characters was taken away from them.\nIn a digital space like a MUD, a MOO or a chat-room, your independence to act and choose your actions is the way you express yourself as an individual, and not a 'bot, a coded object sending off different messages. When this is taken away from you, in this environment you are less than a raped woman, you don't even have the choice to cry and express your unhappiness. You can of course turn off the computer, but that doesn't return to you the power to act, speak and be an individual in this space. That is the final retreat and abandonment of your identity in this context. No, there are no scars on your body, and the harm to your self-worth can't really be compared - it isn't a rape. But a new way to communicate means a new way to be abused. We just need an other word for it.\nWhat is the difference between Agency and Power?\nYes, I know there's supposed to be one - Janet Murray (1997) has a definition of agency in Hamlet on the Holodeck: \"Agency is the satisfying power to take meaningful action and see the results of our decisions and choices. We expect to feel agency on the computer when we double-click on a file and see it open before us, or when we enter numbers in a spreadsheet and see the totals readjust.\" It does not, however, distinguish Agency and Power. She uses the word power in her definition and explains agency as power - power to take action. It feels like a circular definition, or a need to give a new name to something - an act of euphemism, making the thrill of controlling events on the computer more acceptable.\n\"The interactor is not the author of the digital narrative, although the interactor can experience one of the most exiting aspects of artistic creation - the thrill of exerting power over enticing and plastic materials. This is not authorship but agency.\" I'd say - it's not authorship, but it's still power and control. Power and control are not nice words. They come into our vocabulary loaded with connotations of marxism thought. The idea that being able to influence your surroundings as being pleasant because it makes you feel powerful has echoes of \"Power to the People\" and other silenced catch-phrases. To say that you have agency can be uttered in the most conservative of lecturing halls. Control is as stigmatizing - to be a control-freak, to desire, even take pleasure from being in control; there is something sick, egocentric, neurotic about it.\nBut if there is a reason for using the word agency about the power and control the computer-user has over the text which is not cosmetic - I can't find it.\nSomebody found me. I have been writing this for only a few weeks, and mainly to answer that eternal question: \"so how's your work going?\". And already they have found me - made me into a part of a wider context, a Norwegian voice in a web that covers the world. I am flattered, of course - but also terrified. The first thing I meet when looking through the blogs on that net is the discussion about language, what language we should write or not.\nLanguage is identity in Norway. Four million people and we have three languages, two of them so close that if you write with all the permitted dialectic variations there's really no difference, while the third is the Sami language, one of an ethnic minority. My father was a Sami. I didn't know until the year I turned 30 - my husband, the historician, checked the old records of the family from before World War II. In these records they were registered as Sami-speakers, but after the war they had all re-registered as Norwegians. There was this thing about my father - he would always start a sentence and then suddenly he'd lack a word. I'd supply it for him, and he would speak on. I never noticed until I started learning about immigrants, and what happens to children of immigrants when they are forced to learn Norwegian, and can't learn to read and write in their native language. They displayed the same language patterns. I started asking around, and found that my father, who had been to a Norwegian-language boarding-school, like most Sami children, had been functionally illiterate until he was 25. I still remember him moving his lips as he reads the newspaper, asking me what this and that word means.\nNorwegian robbed him of his language, and of his ability to communicate. He was for ever the wild man, the foreigner among strangers, even with his own people. Norwegian does not have my blind loyalty, but language does. The importance of being given access to the language you speak, to be taught to write and to think in your own language before you are forced into an other is to me not just a political statement, but also the heartbreaking memory of a man I loved and admired, who spent an hour every morning while I prepared for school, mumbling his way through the newspaper in search of words.\nI have finally managed to start using the interviews with my friends the players in my writing. It's interesting material, some of it pointing towards games as a tool of the revolution, opening for the people to take back the control of their lives, and appear like players, not pawns. I love it, wrapped in a long rambling diatribe from Kym where he speaks of what games can and will do.\nNow the question is - the players, those young ones who demand to have power over their own pleasure, are they Barbarians or Senators? Am I a Senator, waiting for them to come and make the laws? In that case, from what I have read of the interviews today: come, Barbarians - please don't fall on the battle-field.\nWhat are we all waiting for crowded in the forum?\nThe Barbarians are to arrive today.\nWithin the Senate-house, why is there such inaction?\nThe Senators making no laws what are they sitting there for?\nBecause the Barbarians arrive today.\nWhat laws now should the Senators be making?\nWhen the Barbarians come they'll make the laws.\nI snatched this from \"Waiting for the Barbarians\" by C.P. Cavafy, printed in Morley and Robins: Global Media, Electronic Landscapes and Cultural boundaries, Routledge 1995. The book discusses culture, tradition, space and time in a Europe swept by the technological revolution. And I liked the conclusion to that poem, it very much has a feel of the dilemma of Europe:\nBecause night has fallen and the Barbarians have not come.\nAnd some people have arrived from the frontier;\nThey say there are no Barbarians any more.\nAnd now what will become of us without Barbarians? -\nThose people were some sort of a solution.\nReality TV.\nThat's the big Issue in Norway these days. A smaller Norwegian TV-station is sending a norwegian version of \"Big Brother\", giving us all a view of what a bunch of people closed up in a small apartment close to the main airport in Norway will do or not to win one million kroner. This series has lead to a lot of discussion, here as elsewhere, about good and bad television, as my colleague Erling Sivertsenshows in his collection of links to the \"shitbag-television\"-debate. The question in the lunch-room of the Media Department at Volda College today was: \"Is this a Documentary?\" Personally I think that it is not. The stage is set, the actors are picked, the directors have their dramaturgy plotted in and add different props to nudge the action in certain directions. At the same time I can understand the argument that this actually happens, these people actually live there, what they do to, with or against each other isn't in any manuscript that they know of. So perhaps this is a filmed psychological experiment, where the publicity is a factor? Does that make it a Documentary? I spent lunch discussing (I won't write arguing over) this with a couple of colleagues, and I still don't think it is. I will think of it as a roleplay-game (LARP - Live Action Role-Play), or perhaps a sports-events - which I think was our first \"reality-TV\". Those are the categories which makes sense to me. That doesn't make it all fiction though. Complicated. And interesting.\nDid I spend the last 19 years going in a circle? Or is everything a web of connections, where we do not walk forwards, but back and forth, weaving a net rather than spinning a thread? Reading Panofsky was stepping into the past for ideas and thoughts which resonate through the work I do now. The main argument of the little book from 1951 was that the patterns of scholarly writing would spread from one topic to an other, and everything would mirror the scholastic manner of arguing. The form of the scholastic argument spread, according to Panofsky, to all the other forms of expression, but seen most clearly in the gothic churches and cathedrals.\nWhat does this have to do with my work? One of the original claims when I started studying computer games was that the structure of the media of expression and creativity for the computer literate generation will alter not just the way they approach games, but the way they think and express themselves. The patterns of computer game play will spread to other areas of life and creativity. I don't think I can definitely prove this, but if I manage to point to the patterns that computer games teach, it might be possible to see later on if they can be found elsewhere, in scholarly thought, in play, in architecture, in different types of expressive art, or even religion.\nJan Fredrik Hovden is a colleague and a really nice young man. He's specialising on Bourdieu, which only tangentially touches on what I do, but listening to a presentation of his work, I found a reference I had forgotten all about. So now I am tucked up in my comfortable office chair with Erwin Panofsky: gothic architecture and scholasticism, feeling like I am right back in and studying Art History, my first subject at the university of Bergen.\nIn the series of \"watching grass grow\" I found out that I can actually control the web-cam which gives a view of Times Square! A video camera gives a running view of what happens at this infamous New York square, and after a few very futile attempts, I was able to figure out which button to hit to be able to take control of the pan, tilt and zoom of the camera. I guess it would have been a little more exiting if I didn't do it at 4 am EST, though.\nI told a friend that I had made this weblog. he asked me if I had made it for people who like watching grass grow? I guess I did, and for that special audience, I give you a view of the bridge he can see every day walking home from the subway. matthew, this bridge is for you.\nIt's the International Women's Day (I knew that) and I should be on strike (I didn't know that). How can I not support the demands and still talk about solidarity and sisterhood? At the same time, it's easy to see how the young girls of today's Norway can feel that this doesn't concern them. The main topics of the meetings are international, and don't really touch on the daily lives of Norwegian girls and women. I live in a society where women don't need to be liberated from external violence, but the internalised violence. While we have more women in higher education than men, these women think they will have worse grades and achieve less than their fellow male students. While we have a law supporting women who apply for positions as leaders, we have women who think they are not good enough to lead. While we have the best female soccer-team in the world, Women think a) they can't cooperate with others, be \"team players\" and b) they have to look good to succeed.\nOne of my favourite images from a world championship in football (soccer for the americans) was when one of the Norwegian girls pulled her shirt up to hide her face, running around in blind joy after a victory. She was however never \"discovered\" for doing that, as was one of the American girls who did the same later in the same championship. The Norwegian girl didn't show off a strong tanned body and a black bra, but was taped with sportstape, covered with bruises from playing a rough match, and her breasts were hidden behind a sports-bra my grandmother would have approved of. To me, the picture of her is a moment of wonderful pride and pure joy of achievement, looks be damned! And while I will never run around a soccer-field like that, I want the girls who are my students to feel that they can enjoy and display their pride, their joy and their ability to achieve with the same ruthless exuberance as the Norwegian Women's Football-team express when they show the world they are THE BEST!\n\"Representations are bodies too!\" (Deleuze & Guittari: a thousand plateus p 86)\nI am being seduced. \"They do not understand that seduction represents mastery over the symbolic universe, while power represents only mastery over the real universe.\" (Baudrillard, Jean (1990): Seduction, New York, p. 8) My symbolic universe is flirting with the many readings of Deleuze, and now I am approaching slowly, drawn in and seduced into accepting more and more of the symbols, the metaphores, the thoughts and ideas, as I start nibbling at the original text. And as I let Deleuze and Guittari have their way with my mind, the open system unfolds like a temptation I both resist and desire. And I return to Baudrillard again, to give words to the experience: \"Seduction is never linear, and does not wear a mask (that is vulgar seduction) - it is oblique.\" (p. 106)\nLast night I read Ian Buchanan(1999): \"Deleuze and Cultural Studies\" in Buchanan, Ian (ed): A Deleuzian Century, Duke University Press. I liked some of what he wrote, like (p 114) \"A Deleuzian cultural studies would, I am sure, begin with the question of the subject, but it would not ask, what is a subject? Rather, as we have just seen, it would ask how does one become a subject?\" The part I have problems with is his claim that cultural studies reduces the subject by trying to understand what it is. Perhaps I have misunderstood something about Cultural Studies, but I thought it wasn't asking \"what is the subject\" at all, but rather: \"how is the subject active and relates to its context?\" Studying the acts of the object of study and how the object is being created to me looks equally \"objectifying\" (or not objectifying. Is there a word for subjectifying?). To quote Bucanan again: \"So long as we insist on examining subjects in terms of an ostensive \"what is\", we will continue to objectify them - perception, itself, objectifies.\" I agree with him on that critizism of sociology, but I feel he's aiming at the wrong part of social oriented studies when he attacks the cultural studies for this objectification.\nLiving in Volda gives you some different perspective on mortality and the influence of nature. I have been putting off going to visit a tailor - the road to where she lives has been closed due to avalances! A colleague of mine who moved up here from Oslo, lived in Austefjorden, the bottom of the fjord I live by. \"Look out for avalances\" I told him when he moved there. He thought I was kidding. Three days later a huge rock just missed his car as he was driving to work.\nThese very physical reminders that I live in a world where I am flesh, soft vulnerable flesh at that, carry into the games I play. It's interesting to observe others playing, there are those who choose to let their virtual bodies be virtually invulnerable. The pleasure of having control, of being invincible and powerful is very seductive, particularly to new players. Older and more experienced players discover the pleasure of being vulnerable - their characters have flaws, and their plots sometimes fail or give bad backlash. Do we as humans need the thrill of mortality? That's actually a valid topic for discussion in MUD-world. What does longevity do to the mindset of elves? What does having short lives do to orcs and humans? Aarinfel discusses these topics seriously, to use the views to further roleplay - players are writing long essays exploring the consequences of longevity on world-views, on racism, on sex (busy topic), just to pick some of what's discussed there.\nRight now I am sulking because I don't have the energy to push a plot I got involved in through... I comfort myself that I am up against the immortals, and what mortal can win in a case like that? But I fear for my darling elf... And so I am staying out of the game, mudding when I am too tired or not feeling well makes me blur the borders between IC and OOC - In Character and Out Of Character.\nI feel like mastering something today, succeeding in something - and because I know what I am up against in the game, I know there's no other end than tragedy. Although tragedy might be a hundred elfin years off *smiles*. Losing sight of the difference between IC and OOC is one of the worst sins a mudder can do - forgetting that it's just a game after all.\nToo many take their losses, their depressions, their weaknesses into the gameworld and hope to be the beautiful princess where they are just average people in the flesh-worlds. Little is as painful as the realisation that the character is just a part of you, although it might be a remote one. It might be a part you don't use in other occasions, it might be a flirt where you are normally shy, it can be wicked where you are kind, but it can't be anything beyond your own potential. That reminds me I have to go back to my interviews... Jodi Nevins has some great thoughts on the roleplayer subject, but the world will never know unless I publish.\nSo many efficient people, and one of them my older sister, Solfrid. She's having an exhibition in April, but sadly I can't go see it. Instead I'll enjoy the online presentation of her work. For the English speakers I can just say - the pictures are in there somewhere, and they look great.\nI read the article Jill recommends, by Daniel Pargman on SvenskMUD, an adventure MUD in Sweedish. The way he discusses the aspects of playing, and the insights into what the \"magicians\" (administrators more commonly known as \"wizards\" or \"immortals\") view as important topics to create a good online playground is interesting. This seems like a different type of MUD from what I am working with, as it looks to be a pure \"hack'n'slash\" game rather than roleplay. In his article, he doesn't specify if it's DIKU or what other code-base it's built on, but for the topics he discusses, the brand isn't important. It's an interesting article, and I will be looking for his dissertation - it looks both interesting and useful in relation to what I am working with, although it doesn't overlap - luckily. I'd hate to find that somebody have already written my dissertation.\nI looked in on my friend Jill's page. She looks too efficient for a poor old lady to even want to watch. I guess I'll just slink offline and start a new chapter. 6 months to go, and a dissertation to write...\nMassuni, Brian 1993: A user's guide to capitalism and schizophrenia\n\"Deleuze recommends that you read Capitalism and Schizophrenia as you would listen to a record. You don't approach a record as a closed book that you have to take or leave. There are always cuts that leave you cold. So you skip them. Other cuts you may listen to over and over again. They follow you. You find yourself humming them under your breath as you go about your daily business. Capitalism and Schizophrenia is conceived as an open system.\"\nPerhaps this is why I read four books at the same time:\nDeleuze, Gilles and Guattari, Felix (1987): a thousand plateus, Minnesota Press\nMassuni, Brian (1992): A user's guide to Capitalism and Schizophrenia; deviations from Deleuze and Guattari, MIT press\nRajhcman, John (2000): The Deleuze Connections, MIT press\nGoodchild, Philip (1996): Deleuze & Guattari; An Introduction to the Politics of Desire., Sage publications\nThe openness which is supposed to be central to the work on Capitalism and Schizophrenia so far reads like a game, a multilinear text or an ergodic text, where using the parts which makes sense to you, the reader/user, is more important than grasping the entire monolith of the work.\nOutside it's raining in the snow, and inside I sit in front of the computer chatting to Ben about Spain and Portugal... I went to Madeira once upon a time, I was recovering from meningitis, and spent two weeks there just before christmas. I still don't understand why people live in places like Volda. But then again, looking at the news from Volda, I realize that it's just too cold to be anything but nice to your neighbour, and the arguments are all about how to make this place a better place for people to work and live. That, I kind of like.\nOh yeah, and I managed to get the x-files pages linked in a reference in the text. That's what I love about the net... I could ask Adam, one of the most fun roleplayers I know (the Prince to my Prince's Hand) and a very nice guy at that, and he told me the html for the link... for some reason, html doesn't stick in my brain, but I hope if I just use it often enough, it will work. Thanks Adam!\nTo do today... I should have gone on with Deleuze, but instead I am thinking of the book I brought home last night: Textual Poachers. The players of online computergames aren't alone in their sense of community and their interest in social experiments. This book points out how fans of fantastic and futuristic television programs are equally active, particularly in the way they explore through fanzines. The book was written from studies done just after 1990. During the 90ies the fanzines have moved into the internet, as we can see for instance the X-Files fan pages. In the area of science fiction and fantasy, the social experiment has always been a major part of the experience, and roleplaying is a related experience to writing fan-fiction or producing fan programs, films or costumes. That reminds me, I need to go find Marion Zimmer Bradley's collections of fan stories.... I know they are somewhere close to B in my bookshelf.\nMy mind is stalling at transcendentals in the Kantian Subject and Deluze's thoughts on duration.\nThat meant I had to repeat Kant, and a quick search gave me a really nice page of links on Kant: http://comp.uark.edu/~rlee/semiau96/kantlink.html\nFor someone like me, not having looked in the direction of Kant since 1984, http://www.island-of-freedom.com/KANT.HTM was a most useful repetition to kick the brain back into work. OK, so it's simple, but it's clear enough that it helped me pull those buried memories of lectures in a narrow room which felt like a bomb-shelter and smelled of cement and dust out of the darkness where they were hidden, and the voice of the lecturer mixes in my mind with the memory of the images I was drawing on the note-pad, exotic fish swimming among my notes, and the distinction between a priori and a posteriori knowledge is written down in black and red with intricate twirls to the lettering.\nThere are aspects of using blogger I still need to figure out. Like how do I make links appear as links without doing the html for it? Which template do I prefer? Should I tell people I have a log of my own? It's like having a room of my own, a space on the net where I have absolute power of publishing - now I need to decide the limits for myself. And why am I writing in english? That is a decision taken I think, from a desire to have others read this, friends I hardly ever see, but who I wish to stay in touch with. Spread around the globe, computers give us a chance to stay in touch across timezones and distances. And I start out with abandoning my native Norwegian for my dreams of grandeur and international fame...\nSo this is it. The first online log. Jill claims making her very own log makes her feel more efficient, and structures her day - I wish! We'll see how this works out.\nToday's topic - Deleuze and Guittari. No, I don't understand this quite yet, but reading about capitalism and schizophrenia, I found this quote in a book on Deleuze and Guittari. The author qoutes Kafka: \"Josephine the singer, or the mouse folk\" in Collected short stories of Franz Kafka, London 1988, p 437-8\n\"Our laws are not generally known; they are kept secret by a small group of nobles who rule us. We are convinced that these ancient laws are scrupulously administered; nevertheless it is an extremely painful thing to be ruled by laws one does not know... Perhaps these laws that we are trying to unravel do not exist at all. There is a small party who are actually of this opinion, and who try to show that, if any law exists, it can only be this: The law is whatever the nobles do.\"\nWhy did I like this quote? It fits perfectly with the rules of one of the courts in the online roleplay game I play. When my brain doesn't work (in periods, too much of the time), I log on to the MUD Aarinfel, and slip into the body of a male gay elf (IRL I am a female, fairly straight and not elfish looking at all). The link to Aarinfel and a lot of information about the place can be found here: http://aarinfel.mudservices.com/\nRoleplay to several of the players at Aarinfel, is a way to think about social structures and relationships, and to learn about assumptions. In a fantasy world, assumptions drawn from flesh-world habits can have unexpected consequences, and this is one of the most interesting aspects of playing, particularly online. On the Aarinfel discussion board, among the more-or-less posts of juvenile banter, there are discussions of the development of societies, the logic of racial interaction or the importance of climate to agriculture and trade - all in the fantastic realm of the Empire Erenai.\nDesire, seduction and consent: Writing, reading an...\nToday feels like spring.

        "raw_content": "The social side of gaming\nLast chance today!\n**** FINAL REMINDER: DEADLINE / CALL FOR ABSTRACTS ******\nINTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE \"THE SOCIAL SIDE OF GAMING\"\n************* CFA ENDS THIS MONDAY 28 FEBRUARY *************\nthis is the final reminder that the Call for Abstracts of the international conference \"THE SOCIAL SIDE OF GAMING\" (21-23 July) will end *** next MONDAY, 28 FEBRUARY ***. So please send in your abstract as soon as possible - there won't be an extension of the Call. For further information about the conference topics and the terms of submission please have a look at: https://sofoga.uni-hohenheim.de/85673.html\nWe are also glad to announce the confirmed keynote speakers. They are\nRICHARD A. BARTLE (University Essex, UK, co-author of the world's first virtual world, MUD)\nMIA CONSALVO (MIT, Boston, USA, current President of the Association of Internet Researchers, author of \"Cheating\")\nMARK GRIFFITHS (Nottingham Trent University, UK, leading expert in research on digital games addiction)\nWe are also planning a panel discussion with high class industry representatives and some other events that will be announced soon. For more information regarding the conference, please head over to our conference site at:\nhttps://sofoga.uni-hohenheim.de/conf2011.html\nWe updated the website to answer some of your questions regarding the call, the conference fee, the publication/proceedings volume, accomodation, flight connections, travel grants etc. (s. also our mini-FAQ below).\nPlease note that some people were experiencing difficulties registering via the registration form due to technical reasons. If you did register, but didn't receive a confirmation yet, please contact us directly via gamescon2011@uni-hohenheim.de .\n(for the organization committee)\n****** CONFERENCE FAQ *****\nWe also received several questions regarding the event. Here's a mini-FAQ - more answers can be found online at\nhttps://sofoga.uni-hohenheim.de/conf2011.html .\n* How much is the registration fee?\nThere is a very moderate registration fee of EUR 50,- for speakers and participants with a 100 % position. The registration fee for researchers with a 50 % position is EUR 30,-. We try to keep the prices low so that everybody who wants to participate can participate. Science shouldn't be about money.\n* How much do I have to pay for a flight to Stuttgart? Is it difficult to get there?\nThe international Airport of Stuttgart is just 10 minutes away from the University (via taxi). There are connections to all major European cities and even transatlantic connections. Furthermore, you can fly in via Frankfurt or Munich. There are some discount airlines flying to Stuttgart, including airberlin, germanwings and TUI (but also Lufthansa, SAS, British Airways, Delta etc.) - so return tickets to major European cities start around EUR 30,-. If you book early, then this might be your cheapest international conference ever!\n* I am a PhD student and don't have the money to travel to your place. However, I have a fascinating abstract and would love to visit the conference!\nPlease consider sending in your abstract nonetheless. We will offer a limited number of travel suppurt grants for international PhD students and researchers on a 50 % position (or less). Preference is given to PhD students/researchers from developing/transitional countries with top abstracts. Please note that this option is subject to availability. The overall availability of funds is limited, so the actual grant size and number is depending on the number of applications and their quality. If you are a member of the named group and think about applying for a grant, please contact us directly via gamescon2011@uni- hohenheim.de. We can provide you with more information on a per case basis.\n* Will there be a proceedings volume?\nWe plan to publish the best conference papers and some invited papers in an edited volume. It won't be your standard proceedings volume, but a coherent book on the social aspects of gaming, aiming at the worldwide book market. We are currently in talks with major international publishers about the details of the publication.\nAnother path towards control\nDid you think the battle over free information was over? There's another way to argue for control of the internet. Faltin Karlsen, who is currently looking at problematic use of games and the Internet, writes this concerned note:\nA group working with the next revision of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM), in the category called Substance-Related Disorders, suggests that:\n\"Gambling disorder has been moved into this category and there are other addiction-like behavioral disorders such as \u201cInternet addiction\u201d that will be considered as potential additions to this category as research data accumulate. Further, the work group has proposed to tentatively re-title the category, Addiction and Related Disorders.\"\nThis move will conflate substance addiction and compulsive behavior into one category and increase the scope of the diagnosis. In short, in 2013, overuse of Internet can become a diagnosis. This is problematic in a health perspective (although also with positive sides), but regarding freedom of expression it has more severe implications. Governments in countries without democracies and where freedom of expression is under pressure will have a valid argument for monitoring and regulating the use of the Internet even further. In the West it is difficult to assess what consequences this will have but it might easily put freedom of expression under pressure, in lieu of worrying about the health of the population. I can\u2019t even imagine the avalanches of media panics this will entail.\nIt appears that the new motto for control is \"Let's close it, and say it's for their own good.\"\nLabels: diagnosis, fear, games, internet, paranoia\nDesign, nature and culture\nThe other day I picked up Don Norman's The Design of Everyday Things. I am not done with it yet, so this isn't a review. However, it triggered quite a few questions in, which highlight one of the main problems with design, a problem my mother pointed out 40-50 years ago. What she pointed out (in less words) was how the distribution of power in society influences design.\nI love the main credo of Don Norman's book and approach to design. Rather than the top-down approach where \"good design\" is something recognized by the designer's peers and rarely truly appreciated by \"regular people,\" Don Norman starts, like a true functionalist, with function, and claims that good design starts with good function. It has to work for the people who use it. I am almost ready to break out in hallelujahs here, I couldn't agree more. Then he goes through a whole stack of problems with design, listing several examples... and that's when I start seeing a different problem with how design is developed, based on the teachings of my mother.\nBack when my father built the house we sold last year, fashion demanded small, scientifically designed kitchens, largely designed after time-motion studies. The idea was a work-space where the housewife would be able to reach everything with as few steps as possible. That's when my mother put her foot down, with the pretty precise analysis of the situation: \"That's designed by men.\"\nThe traditional Norwegian kitchen was and is, excluding a period lasting from 1945-1970, a large, social room, today frequently merged with the living room thanks to efficient vents and fans. It's an important place for work, socialising and enjoyment, a focus which is even more important in an active, two-provider family where the socialising time is limited. It's where children are taught how to cook and clean, it's where the family cooperates to create an important value of the family life, and it's where work and socialisation can mingle, as it offers a chance to be together, work, chat or open up to each other. You can't do that in a tiny kitchen designed for one person to stand in one spot; you need room, several working spaces, and light.\nDon Norman and I don't really disagree here, but still, this is where he uses his examples oddly, without consideration for status and power. One of his examples is an Italian designed washing machine that can do one hundred things, but the couple owning it barely makes it do one. My mother had some funky washing machines in her lifetime, and despite her low level of education and absolute terror of computers, she always made them work the way she wanted. Why?\nThe example in Don Norman's book is an extremely educated couple. I am sure they can operate any kind of technology they need to get their work done. But do they even care about the process of laundry? My mother would recognize materials by touch, she knew the nature of different colours (blue bleeds more easily than red), she would distinguish between weaves and was deeply offended by blends that changed the properties of all materials included. She'd treat each piece of clothing belonging to a large family individually, and the washing disasters with mixed colours were normally the fault of her not-that-focused daughters. In many ways, my mother was like the Austrian bus driver in another of Don Norman's examples, who, when asked if it wasn't difficult to keep track of everything in his complex panel answered \"it's all where it should be.\"\nNow we're getting where I want to. Yes, to a certain extent design is bad because it invites error. However: to a certain extent design is bad because it assumes people are all the same. We believe doing laundry is a simple task, because we all have to do it. It's knowledge we aren't trained or certified for, and so it has to be easy. Driving a bus, on the other hand, includes rigorous training and strict certification. It has to be complex. A complex washing machine causes frustration with the design, a complex bus causes respect for the handler.\nNext couple that with gender theory, and we start to see one of the reasons why telephone systems are allowed to be designed as such horribly impractical tools. Most professional phone operators are women. They work a tool which we all use, and so we believe it's simple. They have jobs they are not certified for and which require very little special training. Also, where the bus driver might kill his passengers if he didn't find everything right at hand, nobody dies from a missed call (unlike it's to an emergency call center, and I suspect their systems don't look much like the ones Don Normal describes).\nMy mother loved to be able to adjust her washing machine to do exactly what she wanted. The bus driver probably has the same feeling about his bus. I love the huge clunky windows machine that I use for gaming, because it lets me do the same thing. I am a lot more frustrated by the apple machine I have through work, because it treats me like an idiot, \"simplifying\" things I want to do by hand. I use it as a compromise between weight, size and certain functions, and grind my teeth when it calls me stupid by making so many decisions for me. If I was a different kind of user, I'd probably worship it by now, just like I want my car to be simple to drive, and I would not buy a washing machines with functions I didn't recognize the use for.\nSo: Good design of everyday things is user-centered and based on tests, I am all with Norman there. I would however like to see him question the many places where he says \"natural\", possibly exchanging several of those with \"cultural.\" After all, most desicions which feel natural to us aren't. They are cultural. Another example from the book: He has tied a string around his closet door in able to open it. At that age, I'd have been down in my father's workshop, looking for a door-knob. That was the culturally logical, available solution to me, and since I thought all fathers had a fully equipped workshop, it also would seem natural. The string was a very clever idea though!\nLabels: books, culture, design\nOnce upon a time, somewhere around the bronze age, I started reading fantasy novels by female writers. I read works by Marion Zimmer Bradley, Tanith Lee, Barbara Hambly, Ursula K. le Guin and so many more fantastic and funny writers. I have been collecting books for more than 20 years, and now that I am moving there is a stack of crates in Norway, waiting to come with me.\nI am still reading new fantasy, adding to the success of Amazon's Kindle day by day, as I can't resist. It is however starting to get really hard to get the fix I want. Why? The heroines have, for some reason, grown incredibly stupid! See for instance Rachel Vincent's shifters series. Young werecat girl runs away from overprotective daddy (and his powerful clan) to have a life. Girl gets in trouble. Much fantastic fighting, shapeshifting and romance follows. Now, this looks like just my thing, I am hooked on \"world almost falls apart and then just gets saved because people are decent somehow and the good guys always gets out on top.\" Please hold the social realism, if I wanted to feel bad I'll read the papers.\nHowever, Rachel Vincent's heroine has one terminal flaw. She's stupid. Her stupidity is what drives the whole thing forwards. She's self-centered, short-tempered, spoiled and obviously has a severe learning disability, as she keeps doing the same stupid things through six books. And no, I didn't read them all. After the first few, I decided it was enough, and for the last ones I just read the increasingly annoyed reviews.\nIn Bradley's books from Darkover, women faced a harsh society, fought and managed to scrape out some room for themselves somehow. They weren't perfect, luckily, but they were also not murderously stupid. They had a lot more going for them than looks and the ability to turn into a cat, really.\nTo a certain degree stupidity is an equal opportunity problem. In J. R. Ward's Black Dagger Brotherhood books, the main character is the king of the vampires, a king who doesn't really want to take on his duties, but has now reluctantly agreed not to keep being only a warrior, but to get on with being a king as well. We have sexy men, beautiful women, dead and undead, fast cars, loyalty and spectacular fights between good and evil. Our vampires are good, by the way. Anyway: So far so good, and I guess if I am able to accept that there are vampires and other versions of undead, being annoyed about the king being plain stupid - well, I should be able to suspend my disbelief a bit more, shouldn't I?\nThe problem is: I just can't. I not only want the world to be saved, I want it saved in a clever manner! So when the king, rather than meeting with his council, discussing and getting updated on vampire politics (neglected for so many years), goes in a three week vacation with this sexy wife, I really don't feel he has any right to be angry when his soldiers do something stupid and get themselves and their friends hurt. He is ignoring exactly the duties he claimed he'd take on, he's super intelligent, has enourmous resources and a divine connection, and all he does is use it to get laid and spar with his sister, when he doesn't threaten to kill his own men. Still, he looks great, and he has powers. What more does a vampire king need to worry about (except daylight)?\nLuckily, not every hero/ine is like that. Some are - if not brilliant - at least likeable. Diana Pharaoh Francis has started a series about the Horngate Witches, where the main character is a magically enhanced warrior with authority issues and a very strong sense of justice and honour. No, not brilliant at all, she doesn't fill others in on what she's doing until it's almost too late, and she is dangerously horny - which causes the dialogue to be... less than good. Waaaay too much heavy-handed innuendo, really. However: she has worked for her skills, she has taken responsibility and learned her job when she realised she was stuck with it and good at it, and she can put her own personal issues aside for the greater good. Also, she loves somebody other than herself, and isn't fully given over to instant gratification.\nAnyway, to my point: Is stupid and selfish the new plot move/way to hammer female dependency in with otherwise strong girls? It does explain why the heroine ends up in one emergency after the other. Storm out of the room in anger = get kidnapped. Leave your boyfriend rather than talk to him when you see him with another woman = get raped while you're on your own. Go away to study at the other side of the country = get your friends killed while they try to protect you. Be rude and smart-assed when in the presence of stronger, smarter people than yourself = get beaten up and ruining all chances of a diplomatic solution.\nAnd yes, I know, I am asking a lot from literature that depends on the main characters drinking blood or casting spells, while hanging out with fairies and angels. But still... can we please have heroes that don't constantly behave like spoiled, over-indulged teen-agers on steroids? Please?\nLabels: fantasy, gender, literature",

        "raw_content": "Nicknamed \u201cDuke City\u201d or simply ABQ, Albuquerque is home to a third of New Mexico\u2019s population. Its mile high elevation makes it one of the highest metropolitan cities in America.\nDuke City Discovered \u2014 Art and Architecture\nDuke City is a fun place to visit \u2026 it\u2019s colorful, vibrant and easy to navigate. We closed our eyes to its industrial sordidness, housing sprawl and notoriously high crime rate and enjoyed the blending of Pueblo Indian, Hispanic, Spanish and Anglo cultures, the eclectic mix of art deco, historic adobe and audacious modern architecture, the kitschy neon of old Route 66 and the astounding amount of public art dispersed all over the city.\nAlthough Albuquerque has a rather modest skyline for a city its size, it has a unique nighttime cityscape. The illuminated buildings provide an otherworldly glow to the downtown area.\nAlbuquerque has one of the largest public arts programs we have encountered. Hundreds of large scale murals, mosaics and sculptures are scattered about town \u2026 sometimes in the most unlikely places.\nThe 3D murals on the downtown fire station are quite unusual and held our fascination for quite a while.\nWrapped around the exterior of the Convention Center is an inventive and colorful mosaic.\nAlthough the Pueblo Revival and Spanish territorial style architecture of Albuquerque\u2019s roots are still being reproduced, the city has fully embraced the innovation and vitality of modern architecture.\nWe learned to appreciate the stark concrete boxy structures that depend solely on bold colors and shadows for architectural interest.\nThe old and the new seem to converge in harmony on historic Route 66. Danny liked the ultra modern lines and angles of this building.\nParking structures are usually hum-drum slabs of concrete. But this one offers a unique approach with its modern flair. We thought the awning over the entrance was a nice imaginative touch.\nAlbuquerque has preserved much of its historical past. Intermingled among the sleek and the modern stand beautiful turn of the century buildings. The magnificent Occidental Life Insurance Building (1917) with its glazed white terra-cotta tile fa\u00e7ade is almost blinding. We loved the Gothic arches and ornate interlocking floral patterns. It is thought to have been modeled on the Doge\u2019s Palace in Venice.\nJust steps from the Occidental Life Building, is the kitschy Burt's Tiki Lounge. Although it looks like an abandoned building by day, at night it\u2019s transformed into a rip roaring music club.\nThe former Federal Courthouse (1930) is an example of Pueblo Deco architecture \u2026 a unique blending of adobe building styles, American Indian motifs and the geometric lines of Art Deco.\nThe two story entrance surround, faced with terra-cotta tile, has molded inlays with geometric motifs and the Native American swastika.\nThe limestone facing contains the Navajo thunderbird and patterns derived from Hopi pottery.\nThe Courthouse is topped with a Mediterranean-style red tile roof and a dazzling gold-domed cupola.\nWe visited the Albuquerque Museum of Art and History mainly to see the special exhibit on the fabulous Alvarado Hotel \u2026 one of the grandest hotels and most elegant dining rooms in the country at the turn of the century. No photography was permitted so click here for a good summary of the exhibit. Sadly, due to the greed of the railroad and lack of public support, the Alvarado was torn down in 1970. The irony is that nothing was built on the spot for thirty years \u2026 it remained a dirt parking lot. In early 2000, when something was finally built, it was a replica of the demolished building. How's that for irony?\nA mural just blocks from the former site of the Alvarado hotel is a fitting tribute to the demolished building. Note the newspaper headline.\nOutside the Albuquerque Museum of Art and History is a very pleasant sculpture garden. Sherry became especially enamored with the sculpture entitled \"Earth Mother, Offerings for a Good Life\" by a Jemez pueblo artist.",

It is therefore currently impossible to state whether or not the tramway men working these services wore uniforms or not.\nA South Eastern Metropolitan Tramways horsecar in the company's distinctive all-white livery, waits for a parade marking the Diamond Jubilee of Queen Victoria to pass in Lewisham High Street on the 12th July 1897.

        "raw_content": "9Whom shall he teach knowledge? and whom shall he make to understand doctrine? them that are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breasts. (Isa 28:)\nYou've seen it. Perhaps you have even experienced it. You're reading the Bible in an area you've read many times. Suddenly a word or a verse pops out of the page at you with a new or deeper meaning. You say \"Wow!! I never saw that before!\" The message is so clear and marvelous you begin to wonder if someone slipped those words into your Bible while you weren't looking; or if in fact your wife was telling you the truth and you really don't pay attention when someone is talking to you.\nImmediately you drop what you're doing (that's ok, you can pick up those broken dishes you were washing later) and grab all your Bibles, concordances and commentaries and clear a table on which to study. (That's ok, those broken flower vases look good on the floor.)\nYou check out the Scripture word by word, making sure you read them correctly and that they in fact mean what they appear to mean.\nYou check your denominational doctrine handbook to see what stance your church takes on the subject at hand, if any at all.\nYou check out the notes in your study Bibles and the comments in the commentaries to see what the experts and traditions have to say about the Scripture.\nYou then go on line and type in the key words to learn what others have found or how they've interpreted the Scripture. [While you are at it, consider checking out the doctrines of those who oppose your view. These people have spent a lot of time and effort digging into places you will have not even thought of. Make good use of their efforts and information. This is especially true if you're intent is to find the Truth and not just support a presupposed doctrine. But even if the latter should be the case, you will want to know everything that might be thrown up to you in effort to thwart your efforts. Forewarned is forearmed.]\nAnd if you are still not satisfied with what others have to say regarding the subject, or if you believe there is more to it than they have seen - you grab your Strong's exhaustive concordance and find every time that word or subject is mentioned.\nThen, just in case all the Bible translators have given a particular slant to any particular word, you check out the words in the original language using Strong's and other lexicons and interlinear Bibles for other verses using those words, but interpreted differently.\nNow you have a solid bases upon which to build. But you're not through yet!\nGod has played games with His Word. You may very well hear your pastor say that God wrote the Bible in such a way that all can understand it. If you have heard your pastor or Bible study teacher say this, then check with them to see if somehow they've missed these verses in the same way you missed the verses you're working on now (Mat 13:10-16; 1Cor 2:14; Isa 66:4).\nThis is the method we are told to use in order to understand the Word.\nMost people have an agenda or a preconceived theory they're trying to prove. If a person or an organization does not believe in God, they will search the Bible diligently to find everywhere it states or implies that there is no God. And do you know what? They will find many verses and passages to support such a notion. Of course that's rather like a person asking you a bunch of questions hoping to catch some words from your mouth with which to prove you do not exist. But people do just this in order to prove themselves right.\nIf you have such an agenda, here's what you do: Go through that long list of Scriptures you've made where your words or verses have been used; mark the ones that support your view; then either ignore or strike out all those Scriptures that discount or contradict your view.\nAnd if you have time on your hands, or if you want to play Theologian: take those verses that contradict and do one of three things:\nFirst; try and nullify them. See if there's some way they can be pointed at other verses that have nothing to do with your subject, or even with the obvious subject being discuses in the Bible. Be patient, it can be done. Theologians and preachers do it all the time. Evidence of this is the many doctrines and denominations that are flooding the world. Why, even Atheists use the Bible to support their view.\nSecond; if you're unable to do the above, do this: Flood your explanation with words. You might be looking at just one word, or one short verse. Don't let that deter you. You be prepared to write an entire thesis discounting the verse if needs be. Use every resource at your disposal, especially the web. There will be plenty of people who have worked hard to either discount your verse or prove their own agenda. Use long quotes from their works. Don't worry that what they're trying to prove is just the opposite of your stance; you pick and choose the sentences from their statement that support your view. If you begin to feel a little guilty for butchering someone's statements and making it say something contrary to what was really said; Just remind yourself that politicians, news reporters, theologians and used car salesmen do it all the time. That should relieve your conscience.\nThird; if after you've nullified the word or verses, and flooded them with words and ballyhoo, you find you still feel a need to do more (maybe just to help salve your guilty conscience, or to justify your stance to your grade school son or daughter who just isn't buying your baloney), try this:\nSay that God didn't really mean what He said when He said it. Does the thought of such a thing prickle the hairs on the back of your neck? It does mine. But don't let that stop you. Listen to sermons by the top-notch preachers and talk show hosts. Pay close attention to your own pastor, and I'll bet you hear them say God did't mean what He said, and quite often at that.\nIf hearing the experts say God meant other than what He said still doesn't satisfy your conscience, do this (it's a sure-fire way of working through moral roadblocks used often by denominations, cults and other such mind-bending organizations):\nSay; \"It's ok to lie and bend God's Word. God doesn't mind as long as I'm sincere. God likes me to do bad things because it makes Him look better and intensifies His Grace toward me. I'm a good person at heart. God will forgive me anyway.\" Say these words (or add your own), over and over until you've convinced yourself. Then when you can say them to your husband, or wife or mother-in-law without flinching or having muscle twitches even while they're calling the booby hatch for a transport car, you will know you've been successful.\nAfter you have done all the above, and you still feel a desire or a need to prove your point (which you probably will after all the work you've put into it) there's still one more tool you can utilize. It is a tool used with great expertise by theologians and politicians alike, not to mention advertising agencies and psychologists:\nCreate a fantasy situation. Try attaching your doctrine to space sravel, or even Time Travel, or an approaching comet, or some mystery cult, or the black hole, or evolution, or the big-bang theory. You could even do what the \"Lucifer Was An Angel Of Light\" proponents do (and who isn't, which shows the success of this technique): find a single tense of a single word in Scripture and through that \"jot\" create a marvelous universe with a mighty creation all its own surpassing even the best of Science Fiction novels.\nI will assure you; the more bazaar and outrageous your Fantasy is, the more people will flock to it and accept it as fact (\"Believe,\" and \"Faith,\" thereby \"Salvation\"), which will make you famous as a Theologian and an \"Expert on the Word of God,\" and what's more, lend support to your own twisted view and, hopefully at least, shut up your nagging conscience, kids, wife and Mother-in-law, if they are in fact still bothering to visit you at the sanitarium they've placed you in.\nHere's a couple \"Rules of Thumb\" that you need to keep in mind when writing for the public. Follow these rules and you're sure to become well received and highly regarded. Break them and you will find yourself set aside at best, and more than likely considered a fool and a heretic..\nRule #1 Tell people what they want to hear. For example: the popular Modern churches sell the \"Prosperity Message\" called \"Name it and Claim it.\" These churches say that by following them you can have everything your selfish little heart desires, and along with this have Eternal Life as well. People love to hear this and will give anything to believe it. This is not a new message, though it has certainly been repackaged. I remember as a little boy going to see movies about just such a situation. Only in the movies the \"preacher\" was wearing horns and a forked tail. But even in the movies where the anything these people were willing to give was their eternal soul, they gladly gave it for what they wanted here and now. Is there a similarity to be seen here, I wonder?\nRule #2 Tell people what they already know and believe. It's ok to add a little and take a little, as long as it still fits in with their established doctrine. The idea is to say the same thing everyone else has said, only say it different and with more spice. If you watch much TV you see this all the time. One program format will become popular, and others will flood the market trying to ride the coattails of the successful into fame and fortune. In the same way the news programs and advertising agencies try to find just the right words that everyone wants to hear so they can say them also. Being unorthodox may get you an oddball listener or two, but the masses will shun you.\nYour readers must be able to take what they've learned from you and tell their friends and family what they've learned without getting a sideways look. Tell a person they have lovely hair and they'll buy your every word (as long as your every word also fits what they want to hear). Tell a person that their hair is a mess, and they will go elsewhere looking for a better judge of hair. Tell a person they can go to Heaven without doing anything but what they're already doing, and you have a loyal follower. Tell them they must give up everything and follow Jesus faithfully (like Jesus told the rich young ruler), and people will shy away from you.\nThe prophets of the O.T. found this to be so. When the king asked for advice from God, and received God's Words that were contrary to what they wanted to hear, the prophet was imprisoned and beheaded.\nThe Apostles told people the Truth, and they also lost their lives.\nJesus, who is Truth, told the educated of His day what they didn't want to hear, and was crucified.\nBut the Priests, and the Pharisees who told the people what they already believed instead of the Truth, were highly regarded and listened to, as they are to this day in the world of the Jews and in the Catholic and Protestant churchs.\nThis being the case, that people only listen to what they want to hear, and that the message of Jesus and the Apostles drove all but a few \"oddballs\" away; and now the churches are huge and overflowing with \"Christians\" clamoring for \"The Word\" - what does that tell you about the Message being preached today?\nLine upon Line.\nThe above is one way to interpret the Bible. In fact it is the most common way it is done.\nIsaiah said this of the Theologians who use the above modus operandi: \"Yet they would not hear. 13But the word of the LORD was unto them precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little; that they might go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken.\"\n(By the way, for you Rapture enthusiasts, that \"Taken\" is a word you might enjoy exploring.)\nAs you can see above, the line upon line, precept upon precept upon precept part of God's instruction is not much of a problem, If we don't take the lines and the precepts and try to nullify them or distort them. The real problem comes when we or the Theologians try to grab the \"Here a little, there a little\" from places (even the wild blue yonder) they don't belong.\nI'm sure you've read commentaries and messages where someone has expressed themself very effectively with well laid-out thinking accompanied by verifying Scripture in support of their view. Perhaps you even knew where the person was probably headed with their reasoning and you found yourself nodding in agreement with a grunt of \"um hum.\"\nThen somewhere along the road, probably about midway through the article or thereafter, you're re-reading paragraphs to see if what you read was really what they said. Then as you continue to read, you discover the writer has taken you off on a space ship or an out-of-body experiences, and you end up discounting everything you had just read.\nHowever, discounting everything is neither easy to do, nor is it expedient since there were definitely portions of the article that had real value; had it been applied correctly.\nYou wonder: \"How can someone so out of touch with reality come up with such great stuff?\"\nI've wondered about that as well, and so far I have found two things that might account for such a phenomenon. First, perhaps this person had a brilliant inspiration as did the theologian in the study above, and carried his \"wisdom\" into the unknown of his imaginations. It should always be remembered that many of the most brilliant minds are also insane.\nA second possible reason for the above may be that the writer had no inspiration at all but rather borrowed from some other source, claimed it as his own, and carried it to his own spacecraft. Again, like in the study above.\nDenominations and cults are built around just such thinking. One person either maliciously, or self-deceptively creates a story, sells the story to the world, and gains a following of people who do not wish to think for themselves but would rather just tag along with someone who claims to have the answers.\nThose who choose to follow bazaar doctrines and ideologies are discounted as \"Cults\" in Traditional thinking. Those who chose to follow the accepted norm of a particular society are considered as merely \"Denominational.\" But in either case, these people are not actually believing anything they claim to believe; they're merely accepting and echoing whatever information is being fed to them by their leaders.\nPrecept upon Precept.\nBut none of the above applies to you. You've had an awakening to a new meaning of an old Scripture. You have your Bibles and your study books before you, and you have prepared your list.\nFirst, if you want to be certain you're not going to be led into doctrinal error, you must make sure you have the guidance of the One who wrote the Bible. He is the only one who can tell you what line goes on what line, and which here-a-little goes with which there-a-little.\nAnd if you're not in fact a born-again Christian following the leading of the Holy Spirit, you might just as well leave off reading at this point and re-read the above methodology of interpreting Scripture, thereby insuring you will remain in accepted doctrine. I can assure you, if you follow the instructions I am about to give, you will know for certain that you understand the Scriptures, but your understanding will fit with no established doctrine. Therefore no church or group will listen to you without shaking their heads and pointing at the door. If acceptability and not Spiritual understanding is what you're after, just stick with reading your church bulletins and commentaries.\nAssuming you wish to continue, I repeat, make sure you follow your Leader, don't run off ahead and think you already know where He's going (like you (and I) did with the space traveler in the article above). And if you have a question, ask it of Him, just as if He was right there with you, because He is.\nNow you're prepared to study the Word in the way it's supposed to be studied.\nThe First thing you have to do is clear your chalkboard. By this I mean you have to consider everything you've heard, everything you've been taught, and everything you now believe to be wrong. It's much like in school or the Army - you cannot act like you're used to acting, nor can you think like you've been used to thinking and expect to get an \"A\" from your teacher, or a commendation from your drill sergeant. You have to do it their way, not yours. You have to un learn so you can be taught.\nIt's the same with God. Whatever is the very best of your way or understanding has to go. It is all wrong. All your \"right\" thinking and ego will only create a barrier to learning what God wants you to know, which is just the opposite of Man's wisdom. We read, and hear from the pulpit that the carnal mind is at enmity with God; that our wisdom is foolishness to God. Yet we are also told that what we hear from the pulpit is God's Wisdom, so we look no farther. This is the foremost barrier to moving on with God and being led by the Holy Spirit. The Preachers say \"Stop,\" that you already have everything there is to know when you have what they tell you to have and that anything else is heresy. So when the Holy Spirit tells you to \"Go,\" you assume it must be something evil talking to you. (The Holy Spirit speaks much quieter than your preacher, and not nearly as often. Miss the \"knock at the door,\" and the Holy Spirit moves on - just like the Shekinah Glory, who was the Holy Spirit, with the Israelites in the Wilderness.) It's the same with God. Whatever is the very best of your way or understanding has to go. It's all wrong. All your \"right\" thinking and ego will only create a barrier to learning what God wants you to know, which is just the opposite of Man's wisdom. We read, and hear from the pulpit that the carnal mind is at enmity with God, that our wisdom is foolishness to God. Yet we're also told that what we hear from the pulpit is God's Wisdom, so we look no farther. This is the foremost barrier to moving on with God and being led by the Holy Spirit. The preachers say \"Stop,\" that you already have everything there is to know when you have what they tell you to have, and that anything else is heresy. So when the Holy Spirit tells you to \"Go,\" you assume it must be something evil talking to you. (The Holy Spirit speaks much quieter than your preacher, and not nearly as often. Miss the \"knock at the door,\" and the Holy Spirit moves on, just like the Shekinah Glory, who was the Holy Spirit, with the Israelites in the Wilderness.)\nOnce you're certain that you have the proper leading, then:\nTake your list of every place the Scripture you're researching was used; see how they all fit together, and notice how they broaden the meaning of the word. You will doubtless discover there are more meanings to the words than you had understood there to be. Doctrine is built by grabbing hold to one meaning while discounting all the other meanings and applications. Be sure you don't do this. You have to assume that God meant what He said - All that He said.\nRemember, God hid His truth so the carnal mind can't find it, but will instead read it and be deceived. Don't expect the carnal mind, that you have always used, to comprehend what you're learning. Your carnal mind will fight your Spiritual understanding tooth and nail every step of the way. And the longer you've been in a particular church, the more educated you are, and the more certain you are of your own understanding, the more your mind and feelings will fight to hang on to its own belief system.\nIt's as if you're hanging from a rope over a deep canyon. You have a choice. You can continue to hang on to that frayed rope of carnality that will eventually send you to the depths below, but in the meantime allows you a sense of security: or, you can release the rope and latch onto the rope God is dangling in front of you that will carry you safely to solid land. Of course you say, that's no problem, you grab onto God's rope, right? But it's not that easy. The rope God is presenting is out of reach for you. And the more educated you are, and the more secure you are with your stance in life, the farther that rope God presents is from you.\nYou could try swinging on your rope, which is called \"works\" on your part; but your finest works will not get you any closer to safety or understanding.\nLet go of your rope.\nBy letting go of your rope, that is everything you've considered as security in this life: your job, your bank account, your family, your friends, your church affiliation, your dignity, your understanding of everything that causes you to feel \"right\" while others are wrong - all has to go. Everything that constitutes you, that is, your ego, has to be released and allowed to fall into the canyon below. By having done this, you will have lightened your load to the point you can take hold of God's rope.\nThere is yet one more thing.\nWithout faith you can not enter into God's presence. Therefore, without being in God's presence you can not understand His Words or His will for you.\nYou've released all your baggage. That shows faith, does it not?\nThere are many people in many lands and religions (even those in no religion) who have released all their baggage. Have they shown faith? Maybe. But not in God, nor have they shown any willingness to follow God. Perhaps a god of some form, with some reward in mind. But faith alone, and sacrifice alone will get a person nowhere but at the bottom of the pit.\nTo show that you actually have Saving Faith, you must release your rope. This means, total and complete submission with no hope of reward, not even an Eternal reward, just as did the Apostles and the early Christians.\nOk, you've released your rope and are therefore ready to follow the leading of the Holy Spirit? (I thought this was going to be a short study. I should have learned better by now.)\nNow, that list of Scriptures in front of you, study each one to see what it has to say. You will find some that don't fit what seems to be what the Holy Spirit is trying to show you. Don't worry about them, just mark them. Some of them will be clarified as you study further.\nDon't be surprised if you find more and more new awareness as you study. One subject opens the meanings to several others. \"Precept upon Precept.\" I have so many studies started that have led into others I could spend the rest of my life (presumably) just finishing them. Sometimes the Spirit will lead you into areas, not necessarily for you to study, but to help you understand more clearly the subject at hand. Also, I have found, He may instruct you to explore an area of great mystery merely to assure you that He is indeed leading you and that it's not just your imagination.\nA warning might be appropriate here: Never assume you have it all, or have been given the Truth, or even a Truth. This is one of the major traps that theologians and ministers of the Word fall in to. It's a problem that the intelligentsia of the secular world experience as well. As you study, keep in mind that each bit of knowledge is but a step of a journey. Just a step. None of the steps are an end in itself. Besides this, there's a principal that must be kept in mind if you wish to avoid doctrinal error, especially when it comes to studying God's Word. And that principal is this: \"It's just as important to know what is not as it is to know what is.\" An example of this is God's allowing the nation of Israel to spend 400 years in Egypt in order to show them the contrast between what life can be like, and what life will be like if they are faithful. God does this in the life of each of us as well in effort to bring us to a fuller knowledge of Him.\nThe Holy Spirit is likely to lead you down false trails for the purpose of instruction, and not for the purpose of leading you to Truth (Mat 4:1; Deut 32:9-13). It is all too easy to grab what you've found and run with it, thinking you have a gold nugget instead of the fool's gold you're actually holding. This is how many cults and denominations are formed.\nAnother danger is the application of lids. The Pharisees thought they had the total truth, a product of their own wisdom, which they bottled up and sealed tightly. By putting a cap on knowledge you prevent the Holy Spirit from leading you any farther, therefore causing you to become wise in your own eyes while remaining a fool. This is the realm of the \"world\" and of the theologian. You may very likely continue your study, but you will have taken a path that has another spiritual guide than that of God. Read the works supported by the cults and the denominations and you will see how far off the path of Truth a person can become. And notice how many thousands of books these authors have sold, and consider how many gullible people read, believe and follow these inane ramblings.\nDiscount feelings. It's been my experience that the Holy Spirit uses our feelings much like a rudder. We have to stay very much in tune to the little emotions that we might ordinarily dismiss. It's like our conscience that speaks very quietly but distinctly, until we begin to pay no attention to it and it seemingly stops talking. God uses our feelings to direct us. This can create a danger to those who are not used to paying attention to their feelings, or who have developed a pattern of misinterpreting them. For instance, the feelings of excitement or confidence may very likely tell us that we are doing things correctly. When studying the Word, we're likely to assume these feeling come from the Holy Spirit. And, they might just be from the Holy Spirit. But they could just as likely be from your own ego. Don't assume anything at this time. Follow through with what you've been given (or think you have been given). If it is of the Holy Spirit it will become clear because everything will fall into place. If it's from your ego, it will fall apart. I've begun studies that I have had to abandon, either because they were not panning out, or because the Lord only wanted me to learn from them, not write them (at least not at this time).\nKeep in mind that as fun and exciting the Word of God is, and as fulfilling as the understandings given you're, they're insignificant in comparison to the real purpose of the Holy Spirit. It's all too easy to get so caught up in study that we miss what God wants from us, and that is to become as He is. Keeping in tune with the Holy Spirit gives us a sense of confidence that we are truly in His will, and that we are being led. And this assurance lets us know that we're in tune with what God is saying to us. However, if we do not also make the changes in our life that's intended to conform us into the \"Image of God,\" that is, in the image of Christ, we will begin to experience a falling away as the Holy Spirit moves on without us. Don't be fooled by the \"Assurance\" doctrines (I'm not referring to salvation) that are so prevalent in many of the churches today. We're here to serve God, not the other way around. If God has a servant who refuses to obey Him, He fires that servant. This has been pointed out over and over in so many ways in Scripture. If you feel a falling away, run back before it's too late!! (Mat 8:13; 13:42; 22:13;24:51;25:30; Luke 13:28)\nReject indoctrination. Doctrine, thereby \"Tradition,\" creates a reading of the Bible inundated with dead-ends, fragmentations, contradictions and vacuums (holes) of understanding. When read as the Bible is intended to be read it is cohesive, fluid, exciting and loaded with ever-expanding exposition and understanding. Read the Bible looking for the \"And\"s. Denominational and cult doctrines read \"Or\" instead of \"And\" thereby grasping but a distorted piece of the Spiritual puzzle; then they reinforce that distortion with fragmented verses and fairy tales. The Bible is also written from God's perspective, not Man's. Man sees everything through a limited toilet paper tube, broken into chunks of time and space. God sees all things from the beginning to the end because He created everything from the end to the beginning. He not only created, but is creating, and will continue to create (and control!!) until He has finished His purpose at which time He will rest from His work (on the 7th day). Theologians read the Bible \"literally\" or \"Spiritually,\" \"Past\" or \"Future.\" By following this procedure you will limit the Holy Spirit and thereby never understand the Bible. It will remain a mystery to you just as it is to the \"experts.\" The Bible is written to be understood Literally and Spiritually and Past and Future and what is more importantly, and a Present application that effects you and me right now. Church (denominational) doctrine is designed to separate and incarcerate (place into bondage) people under the name of instruction and clarification. But don't be fooled. There is only One Truth, and that is God. But there are thousands of lies, almost as many, I suppose, as there are churches, religions, denominations, cults and governments. \"People will believe a lie they hear a hundred times and refuse the Truth they hear but once.\"\nBack to your study.\nNow you have before you your list of verses that don't fit your doctrine. For me, at this stage, if I have even one verse or word that conflicts with what I am being shown as \"Truth,\" I don't accept the entire premise until everything lines up. In my mind it's like a perfectly healthy meal with but one single drop of arsenic. I don't care how good it looks, or how well it is advertised, I don't buy it. I know that it could easily be sold to someone else as Truth, but for me it goes to the wayside as an unproven theory. And there have been times I knew full-well that the Holy Spirit was leading me, and I would run into that last verse that didn't fit, and I would cry out; \"What about this!! What are you doing to me!!?\" And then He would patiently lead me to some Scripture, or to the definition of a certain word in the original language, and that would clear it up.\nSo don't be surprised if you're not able find the Total Truth in this lifetime. We're only allowed to see things \"In Part,\" and later it will be shown to us in full. God is patient, and He knows our weaknesses. What's important is that we allow our weaknesses and fallibility so He can deal with them and use them.\nUnderstanding the Word is a tour, not a destination. And it is far better to be on a short tour in the right place, than to believe you're at a final destination but be at the wrong place!\n14Wherefore hear the word of the LORD, ye scornful men, that rule this people which is in Jerusalem. 15Because ye have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with hell are we at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves: 16Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste. 17Judgment also will I lay to the line, and righteousness to the plummet: and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding place. 18And your covenant with death shall be disannulled, and your agreement with hell shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it. 19From the time that it goeth forth it shall TAKE you: for morning by morning shall it pass over, by day and by night: and it shall be a vexation only to understand the report. 20For the bed is shorter than that a man can stretch himself on it: and the covering narrower than that he can wrap himself in it. 21For the LORD shall rise up as in mount Perazim, he shall be wroth as in the valley of Gibeon, that he may do his work, his strange work; and bring to pass his act, his strange act. 22Now therefore be ye not mockers, lest your bands be made strong: for I have heard from the Lord GOD of hosts a consumption, even determined upon the whole earth.\n23Give ye ear, and hear my voice; hearken, and hear my speech. 24Doth the plowman plow all day to sow? doth he open and break the clods of his ground? 25When he hath made plain the face thereof, doth he not cast abroad the fitches, and scatter the cummin, and cast in the principal wheat and the appointed barley and the rie in their place? 26For his God doth instruct him to discretion, and doth teach him. 27For the fitches are not threshed with a threshing instrument, neither is a cart wheel turned about upon the cummin; but the fitches are beaten out with a staff, and the cummin with a rod. 28Bread corn is bruised; because he will not ever be threshing it, nor break it with the wheel of his cart, nor bruise it with his horsemen. 29This also cometh forth from the LORD of hosts, which is wonderful in counsel, and excellent in working.\n10And the disciples came, and said unto him, Why speakest thou unto them in parables? 11He answered and said unto them, Because it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given. 12For whosoever hath, to him shall be given, and he shall have more abundance: but whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken away even that he hath. 13Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they seeing see not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand. 14And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Esaias, which saith, By hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and shall not perceive: 15For this people's heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and should understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them. 16But blessed are your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear. (Mat 13:)\n10He that descended is the same also that ascended up far above all heavens, that he might fill all things.) 11And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; 12For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ: 13Till we all come in the UNITY of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a PERFECT MAN, unto the measure of the stature of THE FULNESS OF CHRIST: 14That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive; 15But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ: 16From whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love.

        "raw_content": "The Man-Not\nRace, Class, Genre, and the Dilemmas of Black Manhood\nThe Before Columbus Foundation 2018 Winner of the Thirty-Ninth Annual AMERICAN BOOK AWARD\nIntroduces the conceptual foundations for Black Male Studies, going beyond gender theories that cast the Black Male as a pathological aspiring patriarch\nTommy J. Curry\u2019s provocative book The Man-Not is a justification for Black Male Studies. He posits that we should conceptualize the Black male as a victim, oppressed by his sex. The Man-Not, therefore, is a corrective of sorts, offering a concept of Black males that could challenge the existing accounts of Black men and boys desiring the power of white men who oppress them that has been proliferated throughout academic research across disciplines.\nCurry argues that Black men struggle with death and suicide, as well as abuse and rape, and their genred existence deserves study and theorization. This book offers intellectual, historical, sociological, and psychological evidence that the analysis of patriarchy offered by mainstream feminism (including Black feminism) does not yet fully understand the role that homoeroticism, sexual violence, and vulnerability play in the deaths and lives of Black males. Curry challenges how we think of and perceive the conditions that actually affect all Black males.\n\"Curry\u2019s book is not only a necessary read for those interested in the study of racism, gender, and sexuality; it is also a call to build a field of study dedicated to Black men, their lives and vulnerabilities in a way that restores their humanity.... Curry\u2019s book is a masterful feat of historiography, sociology, and philosophy. His work is an excellent read.... By addressing the racist assumptions in gender scholarship regarding Black men, Curry is able to fill in some gaps in the literature and lay the foundation for a much-needed field of study dedicated to Black men.... (T)his book will likely change the field of gender studies.\"\n\u2014 The Black Scholar\n\"Tommy Curry has written a cool, brilliant defense of the men who are the pariahs of American society: the ones who, regardless of class, find themselves at the bottom of every hierarchy; the ones whose demographics and statistics in terms of the criminal justice, health care, and other systems are abysmal. Countless billions have been made from the portrayal of Black males as Boogeymen. The Man-Not is heavy work, but the general reader will find its arguments well worth the time and effort. This book is controversial. Those who\u2019ve dogged and stalked Black men in the academy and popular culture for the past few decades are sure to have their critical knives out. I know. But it\u2019s rare for an American intellectual to step up, regardless of the fallout. This book is the one that I\u2019ve been waiting for. Curry has taken a bullet for the brothers.\"\n\u2014Ishmael Reed, Professor Emeritus at the University of California, Berkeley, and Visiting Scholar at the California College of the Arts\n\" In a bold\u2014indeed, fearless\u2014intervention in the ongoing race/gender/sexual orientation debates, Tommy Curry challenges the cozy consensus among self-conceived progressives in the humanities. The oppression of black men has been conceptually erased, he argues, by theoretical frameworks indifferent to the social science data that refute them. Sure to ignite a firestorm of controversy, The Man-Not is an impassioned protest against orthodoxies, both mainstream and radical, white and black. It is required reading for anyone interested in understanding oppression or having unquestioned assumptions put to the test.\"\n\u2014Charles W. Mills, Distinguished Professor at the City University of New York Graduate Center\n\"(The Man-Not) contains so many studies in detail, that (it) first might appear to be an anthology of research done over the years: from race in 19th century ethnology, through black writers\u2019 experience of the effects of the prison-industrial complex, to white women raping black men under slavery, and supporting their lynching in a later period of history.... (S)lowly I started to understand that these were not case studies, and the book is no anthology. It is systematical and methodical to the core, forming theory from actual issues in the lives of black men and boys.\"\n\u2014angelaroothaan blog\n\"Curry's style of writing and the occasional boldness of his assertions make the book well worth reading. The overall aims of the book are highlighted through mapping the vulnerability which makes the genre theory of Man-Not(ness) a useful framework for further theorizations that consider the presence of the Black male corpse and sexual vulnerability in conceptualizations of Black maleness. Curry's revising of Black masculinity highlights the need to theorize Black masculinity without using white masculinity as a benchmark.\"\n\u2014NORMA: International Journal for Masculinity Studies\n\"The release of Tommy J. Curry's new text, The Man-No t, is both monumental and groundbreaking. This text inaugurates a new field of study\u2014namely, Black Male Studies, and Dr. Curry lays the foundation well by establishing a multi-layered, nuanced approach that encompasses new approaches to conceptualizing gender, develops new gender theory, re-evaluates sexuality, and creatively applies class-analysis in an effort to consider Black men on wholly new grounds. Curry accomplishes this difficult task with seeming ease.\"\n\u2014New Black Masculinities\n\"The Man-Not is an important work that is essential in the day and age of disposable blog entries that ride on incorrect tropes about Black men. This is factual work backed up by data that can be proven, and that is what is missing in conversations about race. The Man-Not is a very dense book. There is a lot to digest here, but a book about racism and white supremacy should not be a quick read. This is a triumph in Black studies and about how the African-American man and boy is written. I felt pride and satisfaction reading this book. A Black man writing a book to humanize Black men and boys: it couldn\u2019t have come at a better time for me and everyone else.\"\n\"Curry offers a provocative discussion of black masculinity by critiquing both the social and academic treatment of killings of black men and boys in the US. The author forces readers to reevaluate the interpretations and stereotypes the media uses. He argues that gender studies has disadvantaged black men by imposing and supporting negative historical stereotypes and ignoring the diversity of black boys and men and by falsely aligning black masculinity with white masculinity.... The present book is an attempt to fill the gap by presenting a philosophical theory on black masculinity that Curry claims is nonexistent in philosophy.... (A)n excellent basis for discussions of the academic constructs of legitimacy in research. Many readers may find this book an uncomfortable read, and that is the very reason it should be read....Summing Up: Highly recommended.\"\n\"(A)lthough some will find this text controversial and seek to dismiss its conclusion and criticisms, I find it a welcomed call to see Black men and boys as worthy of being subjects of study.... This book is thus a must-read for undergraduates, graduate students and faculty studying the complex intersections of race, gender and class; general readers will also find a challenging but eye-opening introduction to Black Male Studies.\"\n\u2014American Philosophical Association's blog series, titled \"Black Issues in Philosophy\"\n\"The Man-Not introduces a progressive black male studies that is decidedly nonfeminist, and the book demands a radical rethinking of the category of 'gender' itself.... It is impressive to watch Curry build arguments and the seamless manner in which the philosopher moves between sources across disciplines.... (It is) refreshing to read a book that has little time for academic pleasantries and is so eager to transcend the boundaries of traditional gender theorizing.... (R)eaders from diverse academic backgrounds can still learn much in its pages.\"\n\"This book reads as a spiritual successor to W.E.B. Dubois's 1906 keynote speech delivered during the second annual Niagara Movement Conference.... Curry echoes the same sentiment that Black men have been subjugated due to systemic violence, denial of rights, and oppression. The author is open and candid that this is as much an emotional book as an academic one.... It is an impassioned plea for justice and legitimation that is often read in books but rarely felt.... The book is an incredible piece of scholarship for Black Male Studies and completely convincing in its claim that there is not only a need for Black Male Studies but a need to study it across multiple disciplines, particularly at the intersection of race, masculinity, law, politics, and class. His ability to deliver scholarship that is part literature review, part critique, part analysis, and part biography makes this book an important piece of work set to help steer Black Male Studies into a new, exciting direction.\"\n\"Curry argues that the realities of lives lived and lost among Black men remain unseen if not noticed through negations in an era of identity politics.... Curry\u2019s style of writing and the occasional boldness of his assertions make the book well worth reading. The overall aims of the book are highlighted through mapping the vulnerability which makes the genre theory of Man-Not(ness) a useful framework for further theorizations that consider the presence of the Black male corpse and sexual vulnerability in conceptualizations of Black maleness. Curry\u2019s revising of Black masculinity highlights the need to theorize Black masculinity without using white masculinity as a benchmark.\"\n\"Tommy J. Curry\u2019s The Man-Not is a groundbreaking work that argues for a new field of intellectual labor: black male studies.... In each chapter, Curry effectively delineates how black men and boys have been rendered as mythological creatures and pathogens in the American imaginary.... The Man-Not is a well-written and well-researched scholarly effort whose end is to demythologize black masculinity in service of a new field of inquiry where black men and boys are concerned.... The Man-Not is a groundbreaking text that raises necessary epistemological and empirical questions regarding the nature, status, and existence of black males in North America. Its deep engagement with history, sociology, racial ideology, and gender theory distinguishes it from standard works on race, class, and gender in the United States. The Man-Not demonstrates that the condition and status of black males in the United States is unresolved, precarious, and urgent, and that more scholarly work needs to be done.\"\n\"Curry provides a nuanced exploration for viewing gendered violence systemically \u2013 and thus delivers a model for analyzing sexual violence as part of a broader tapestry of gendered violence enacted by the state.... In addition to attending more carefully to black male vulnerability, Curry\u2019s work invites rhetorical critics to think more expansively about the nature of gendered violence. The Man-Not provides important heuristics for nuanced critiques of sexual violence that illuminate the ways in which even the most nominally progressive discourses trade in the sexual dehumanization of Others.\"\nIntroduction \u2022 Toward a Genre Study of Black Male Death and Dying: Addressing the Caricatures that Serve as Theory in the Study of Black Males\n1.

        "raw_content": "Samsung\u2019s foldable phone and Galaxy S10 detailed in new report\nSamsung will launch three Galaxy S10 models and a long-awaited foldable phone early next year, according to a Bloomberg report that corroborates and adds new details to information separately revealed by analyst Ming-chi Kuo and Korean media earlier in the year.\nThe S10 and S10 Plus are said to include curved OLED screens with in-display fingerprint sensors, a technology seen in many high-end Chinese phones this year but yet to be deployed by Samsung. The phones also reportedly have three cameras on the back with a selfie camera that is \u201cvisible and tucked under the screen;\u201d it\u2019s unclear what this actually means, though scattered rumors have suggested that Samsung is working on displays with tiny holes to accommodate cameras beneath the panel itself.\nBloomberg also says Samsung is testing S10 prototypes without headphone jacks, although this doesn\u2019t necessarily mean the company has made a final decision to omit the connector.\nSelfie camera is \u2018visible and tucked under the screen\u2019\nThe third S10 model is said to be a cheaper variant without a curved screen and possibly without an in-display fingerprint sensor. (Kuo\u2019s July report said that this model would have a fingerprint sensor on the side of the device.) Samsung has released \u201clite\u201d variants of its Galaxy S phones in the past, but they typically shared little in common with the flagship devices and weren\u2019t launched til several months later. The company\u2019s stated strategy is to bring more high-end features to its mid-range devices, so extending the prestigious Galaxy S brand in this way makes sense.\nSamsung is also said to be in talks with Verizon Wireless to bring a 5G version of the Galaxy S10 to the US. It\u2019s unclear what stage Verizon\u2019s 5G network will be at by the time of the Galaxy S10\u2019s release; the company\u2019s position has been that it\u2019ll launch 5G-capable mobile devices in early 2019, though there are several caveats with its already-available \u201c5G\u201d home internet service. Leaked code already suggested that Samsung was working on a 5G Galaxy S10 and revealed the device\u2019s codename \u201cBeyond,\u201d corroborated by Bloomberg.\nSamsung\u2019s foldable concept\nThe Bloomberg report also contains details on Samsung\u2019s forever-in-gestation folding phone, codenamed \u201cWinner\u201d as previously reported by The Wall Street Journal. Samsung is supposedly still deciding whether the device will fold out vertically or horizontally, which seems implausible given the company recently suggested it could be shown off at its developer conference next month. The report says Samsung may instead present conceptual details of the design and user interface if it can\u2019t bring the actual device.\nThe folding phone apparently won\u2019t include an in-display fingerprint sensor because of technical difficulties with the screen technology. It\u2019s said to include a four-inch display that can be used when the phone is closed, with a much larger screen on the inside that unfolds like a wallet \u2014 similar to a concept shown off in 2014 (above). The WSJ\u2019s earlier report said the inner screen would be about seven inches diagonal when unfolded, though it\u2019s hard to know quite what that\u2019d look like without knowing the aspect ratio.\nIn any case, 2019 is shaping up to be a big year for Samsung\u2019s mobile division, which is in need of a hit after disappointing sales for the Galaxy S9. Samsung\u2019s 2018 releases have been solid, but distinctly iterative and overshadowed by flashy Chinese rivals \u2014 the question is whether the company can regain its reputation for technical innovation.\nTikTok owner Bytedance is now the world\u2019s most valuable startup",

        "title": "17 Facts About the Apollo Program | Mental Floss",
        "raw_content": "17 Facts About the Apollo Program\nBY Austin Thompson\nNASA was officially established in October 1958. Just two years later, the agency started what would become one of the defining programs of the 20th century\u2014Apollo, which put humans on the Moon in 1969. In honor of NASA's 60th anniversary, and the upcoming 50th anniversary of the Moon landing, here are 17 facts about the Apollo program.\n1. THE NAME DOESN\u2019T HAVE DEEP ROOTS.\nWhen NASA and the Space Task Group were brainstorming names for their first manned satellite project, they favored \u201cProject Astronaut,\u201d which they believed would \u201cemphasize the man in the satellite.\u201d According to NASA, that name was eventually discarded \u201cbecause it might lead to overemphasis on the personality of the man.\u201d Mercury was chosen instead: Thanks to its use in thermometers and automobile branding, it was familiar to the American public. The Roman god's role as a messenger was also appealing [PDF]. The program would go on to make six manned flights between 1961 and 1963, taking us from Alan Shepard\u2019s 15-minute flight to L. Gordon Cooper\u2019s 34 hours in space.\nAs NASA began looking beyond Mercury missions, they recognized that a mythological naming convention had been established. Dr. Abe Silverstein, NASA's director of space flight programs, suggested the Greco-Roman god Apollo\u2014which might seem like an odd choice for a lunar program, considering Apollo is traditionally associated with the Sun rather than the Moon. But Silverstein supposedly felt that the image of \u201cApollo riding his chariot across the Sun was appropriate to the grand scale of the proposed program.\u201d\nAccording to The New York Times, however, Silverstein would later say there was \u201cNo specific reason for it ... It was just an attractive name.\u201d\n2. APOLLO WASN\u2019T ORIGINALLY SUPPOSED TO TAKE US TO THE MOON\u2019S SURFACE.\nThe original intent of the program wasn't actually a lunar landing. When it was announced in 1960, Project Apollo\u2019s goal was to send a three-man crew to orbit the Moon, not land on it. It wasn\u2019t until May 1961 that President John F. Kennedy delivered his famous speech declaring that \u201cthis nation should commit itself to achieving the goal, before this decade is out, of landing a man on the Moon and returning him safely to the Earth.\u201d\nIt was an ambitious plan: At the time Kennedy made his announcement, only two people had ever been in space. In addition to Soviet cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin in April 1961, and Alan Shepard a month later, other animals that had made it to space included fruit flies, monkeys, dogs, and a chimpanzee.\n3. APOLLO 2 AND 3 DIDN\u2019T EXIST.\nIn 1967, astronauts Virgil Grissom, Edward White, and Roger Chaffee were conducting a preflight test\u2014where the command module was mounted as it would be for a launch, but nothing was fueled up\u2014for what was known as mission AS-204 when a fire broke out, killing the three astronauts. The decision was made to honor the astronauts by referring to the never-completed flight as Apollo 1\u2014but this left open the question of what to call the next flight.\nOne solution was to call the next flight Apollo 2. Another option proposed was to retroactively designate three earlier flights (AS-201, 202, and 203) as Apollo 1-A, Apollo 2, and Apollo 3, even though these flights launched before the fire. The reason for the suggestion wasn't evident even to NASA. As the agency explained, \u201cthe sequence of, and reasoning behind, mission designations has never been really clear to anyone.\u201d\nEventually, according to NASA\u2019s history, the never-launched flight \u201cwould be officially recorded as Apollo 1, \u2018first manned Apollo Saturn flight\u2014failed on ground test.\u2019 AS-201, AS-202, and AS-203 would not be renumbered in the \u2018Apollo\u2019 series, and the next mission would be Apollo 4.\u201d\n4. THE LAUNCH OF APOLLO 4 WAS ONE OF THE LOUDEST MAN-MADE NOISES EVER.\nApollo 4\u2014an unmanned mission that served as a test of the 363-foot-tall Saturn V rocket\u2014was the first ever launch at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida, when it occurred on November 9, 1967. The liftoff was so loud (according to NASA, one of the loudest manmade noises ever) that it shook buildings as far as three miles away, causing dust and debris to fall from the ceiling of the control center (above). \"I hope the Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB) doesn't get any cracks,\" Dr. Hans Greune, director of Kennedy Launch Vehicle Operations, said after the launch. \"It rattled pretty hard and a cheer went up in the control room after liftoff.\" The launchpad lacked a sound suppression system\u2014but by the time the Space Shuttle was in use, more than 300,000 gallons of water were sprayed out in just 41 seconds to dampen its sound to acceptable levels.\nThe mission, which was successful, was designed to test the structural and thermal integrity of the craft and to evaluate various support facilities.\n5. APOLLO 5 WAS A SUCCESS; APOLLO 6, NOT SO MUCH.\nThe uncrewed Apollo 5 was designed to test the operation of the lunar module, and it was mostly a success (there were concerns with the water boiler temperature). Apollo 6 was also unmanned, but had many more issues. For 30 seconds it experienced something called the \u201cpogo effect\u201d (which Popular Science explains is \u201calmost like the rocket is bouncing on a pogo stick\u201d)\u2014something that NASA pointed out \u201cwould have been very uncomfortable for any crew.\u201d Then two of the engines shut down, and the third stage wouldn't restart. Despite all these setbacks, Apollo 6 never made national headlines. On the day of the disastrous flight, Martin Luther King. Jr. was assassinated in Tennessee. \u201cAbout the only explaining that NASA had to do, therefore, was to the congressional committees on space activities, who seemed satisfied with what they heard,\u201d NASA explains.\n6. THE PROGRAM RECEIVED AN EMMY.\nApollo 7 was a mission of firsts: It marked the first Apollo mission that sent people to space, as well as the first live television transmissions from space. During the transmissions\u2014which were called the \u201cWally, Walt, and Donn Show\u201d\u2014astronauts Walter Schirra, R. Walter Cunningham, and Donn Eisele gave a tour of the vehicle and cracked a few jokes. Schirra even commented that he was \u201cgoing to try for an Emmy for the best weekly series,\u201d to which the ground crew responded, \u201cI thought you were going to try for a Hammy\u201d [PDF].\nIn a way, Schirra did get his wish: In 1969, Apollos 7, 8, 9, and 10\u2014all of which made broadcasts back to Earth\u2014received a special Trustees Award from the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences.\n7. APOLLO 8 GOT NASA SUED.\nOn Christmas Eve 1968, Apollo 8 astronauts Frank Borman, Jim Lovell, and Bill Anders circled the Moon and snapped the famous Earthrise photo. They were also told to do \u201csomething appropriate\u201d to honor the event for the millions who were listening to them. They decided to recite from Genesis. \"It's a foundation of Christianity, Judaism and Islam,\" Lovell said of the choice. \"They all had that basis of the Old Testament.\"\nFamous atheist Madalyn Murray O\u2019Hair\u2014sometimes referred to as \u201cthe most hated woman in America\u201d\u2014sued, alleging her First Amendment rights had been violated. Ultimately, the judge dismissed the suit and the Supreme Court declined to hear it due to lack of jurisdiction. But it did have an effect on later missions\u2014according to Buzz Aldrin\u2019s memoirs, he had intended to read a communion passage back to Earth during Apollo 11, but at the last moment was asked not to because of Apollo 8\u2019s legal challenges.\n8. THE FLAGS ON THE MOON HAVE A COMPLEX STORY.\nNASA/Liaison/Getty Images\nRaising the American flag on the Moon turned out to be a controversial move. In his 1969 inaugural address, President Nixon had proclaimed that we should \u201cgo to the new worlds together\u2014not as new worlds to be conquered, but as a new adventure to be shared.\u201d That spirit of shared exploration led some at NASA to discuss putting a United Nations flag on the Moon. At the same time, some had concerns over the visual effect of planting an American flag on the Moon, which they believed could make it look like the Americans were taking control of the Moon (which would have been a violation of the Outer Space Treaty). Eventually, however, the committee decided to plant the American flag and also leave a plaque to emphasize that they \u201ccame in peace for all mankind.\u201d\nThe flag debate would be settled in no uncertain terms later in 1969, when NASA\u2019s appropriation bill proclaimed \u201cthe flag of the United States, and no other flag, shall be implanted or otherwise placed on the surface of the Moon, or on the surface of any planet, by the members of the crew of any spacecraft making a lunar or planetary landing as a part of a mission under the Apollo program or as a part of a mission under any subsequent program, the funds for which are provided entirely by the Government of the United States.\u201d Mindful of the Outer Space Treaty, the bill made sure to note that \u201cThis act is intended as a symbolic gesture of national pride in achievement and is not to be construed as a declaration of national appropriation by claim of sovereignty.\u201d\n9. IT\u2019S UNCLEAR WHERE THE APOLLO 11 FLAG CAME FROM.\nThere are two possible sources for the Apollo 11 flag\u2014and neither of them involve anything high-tech. Originally, NASA proclaimed that the \u201cStars and Stripes to be deployed on the Moon was purchased along with several others made by different manufacturers\u201d in Houston-area stores. When it was affixed to the pole and crossbar that would be planted in the Moon dust, all labels and identifying information were removed.\nNot long after the Moon landing, according to a NASA Contractor Report on the Lunar Flag, the head of flag manufacturer Annin & Co. asked if the flag was one of theirs. He was told that \"three secretaries had been sent out to buy 3x5-foot nylon flags during their lunch hours. After they had returned it was discovered that all of them had purchased their flags at Sears.\"\nAnnin was the official flag supplier to Sears, but not wanting \u201canother Tang\u201d\u2014a reference to the free publicity Tang received from NASA after John Glenn drank an orange liquid from a pouch on Friendship 7\u2014they refused to confirm the manufacturer.\nJack Kinzler, a NASA executive, was unable to verify any of this information, though; his notes suggest that the flag was purchased from the Government Stock Catalog for $5.50.\n10. BUZZ ALDRIN HAD TO FILL OUT AN EXPENSE REPORT FOR HIS TRIP.\nEven a guy on the work trip of a lifetime had to fill out some paperwork afterward: Once he was back on Earth, post-successful moonwalk, Aldrin filed a travel voucher totaling $33.31. \"To: Cape Kennedy, Fla. Moon Pacific Ocean (USN Hornet),\" it read.\n11. APOLLO 12 WAS STRUCK BY LIGHTNING\u2014TWICE\u2014AFTER LIFTOFF.\nJust 36 seconds after liftoff on November 14, 1969, the astronauts on Apollo 12\u2014Alan Bean, Charles \"Pete\" Conrad, and Richard Gordon, Jr.\u2014felt something strange. Then, things began to go wrong. The craft had been struck by lightning twice, at 36 seconds after takeoff and again at 52 seconds. Though no one in the crew or on the ground realized what had happened, the three men were calm and waited it out. Bean would later say that \u201cOne of the rules of space flight is you don't make any switch-a-roos with that electrical system unless you've got a good idea why you're doing it. I knew we had power, so I didn't want to make any changes. I figured we could fly into orbit just like that.\u201d Eventually, he reset the electrical systems, and after 25 minutes, those systems and the fuel cells were back up and running. But the crew still had to fire its main engine to leave Earth's orbit and head for the Moon\u2014and the automated navigation was busted. Gordon used a sextant, and Bean broke out a star chart to help them figure out where to go. And they made it.\nThe next Apollo mission may be the most famous, besides 11, because of its own problems\u2014and an oxygen tank intended for Apollo 10 (Apollo 13\u2019s Jim Lovell would later congratulate the Apollo 10 crew for getting rid of it). The tank, 10024X-TA0009, was one of two set for the earlier Apollo mission, but problems with pumps meant all the tanks needed modification. In the removal of this particular tank, it caught on a bolt and fell two inches\u2014but because it was felt that no damage occurred, everyone moved on, and the tank was installed in the spacecraft soon to be known as Apollo 13.\nDuring testing before the flight, technicians noted that the tank had difficulties emptying. To boil off the remaining liquid oxygen the electric heater inside the tank was plugged into 65-volt power for eight hours, with the nearby wires being subjected to 1000\u00b0F temperatures. It would later be discovered that using 65-volt power severely damaged the tank\u2019s thermostatic switches, which were designed for 28 volts (NASA explains that in 1965, the permissible voltage to the heaters was raised to 65 volts, but the thermostatic switch manufacturer never got the memo). This internal damage likely resulted in a spark that destroyed the tank, leading to the legendary saying \"Houston, we've had a problem\u201d [PDF] and, in 1995, an award-winning movie.\n12. APOLLO 12 MIGHT HAVE FOUND MICROBES ON THE MOON ... OR MAYBE NOT.\nWhen Apollo 12 landed on the Moon, it was right next to the lander from 1967\u2019s Surveyor 3. The astronauts grabbed parts from the craft\u2014including a camera\u2014to study the effects of years on the lunar surface.\nResearchers hadn\u2019t sterilized Surveyor 3, and when the camera was opened in a clean room back on Earth, a small colony of Streptococcus mitis was discovered. These bacteria had apparently survived almost three years without nutrients in freezing space and the finding, which frequently gets discussed on the internet, was hailed as a remarkable discovery.\nSadly, researchers have recently returned to the Surveyor 3 camera and learned that the claim was, at best, unconvincing. One problem was that the people studying the camera were wearing short sleeves, meaning post-recovery contamination was a very real possibility\u2014though the researchers caution \u201cproving the truth in such a situation is difficult, if not impossible\u201d [PDF].\nMicrobes or no, there's still an important takeaway from the situation: It demonstrated the potential issues that could arise with future samples returning from places like Mars.\n13. APOLLO 15 TOOK A VEHICLE TO THE MOON.\nApollo 15, the fourth mission to put human boots on the Moon, brought along a first-of-its-kind, 460-Earth-pound Lunar Rover Vehicle (LRV) that was about the size of a dune buggy. Astronauts David Scott and James Irwin became the first people to drive on the surface of another world, and the LRV\u2014which had a top speed of 8 mph\u2014allowed them to travel farther from their landing site than any previous astronauts. \"The LRV on Apollo fulfilled a very important need, which was to be able to cover large traverses, carry more samples, and get more scientific exploration done,\" Mike Neufeld, a senior curator at the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum in Washington, D.C., told SPACE.com in 2011. \"It was a really important part of why Apollo 15, 16, and 17 were so much more scientifically advanced and productive.\" Scott and Irwin traveled around 17 miles in the LRV. The design of the vehicles\u2014and their experiences on the Moon\u2014helped inform the design of the rovers that went to Mars.\n14. ONE APOLLO ASTRONAUT HAD A REACTION TO LUNAR REGOLITH.\nOf the 12 men who have walked on the Moon, geologist Harrison Schmitt was the only scientist. He had a reaction to lunar regolith, or Moon dust. Schmitt said the dust caused \u201ca lot of irritation to my sinuses and nostrils soon after taking the helmet off ... the dust really bothered my eyes and throat. I was tasting it and eating it.\u201d He joked that he had \u201clunar dust hay fever.\u201d Apollo 17 would go on to collect 741 rock and soil samples\u2014more than any other Apollo mission.\n15. THE APOLLO ASTRONAUTS HAD VARIED JOBS BACK HOME.\nThe post-space careers of the Apollo astronauts is varied\u2014Michael Collins was the first director of the National Air and Space Museum, for instance. Harrison Schmitt became a senator from New Mexico. James B. Irwin founded an evangelical organization, while Edgar Mitchell researched psychic phenomenon.\nBut the astronaut to have the most interesting job post-Moonwalk might be Buzz Aldrin, who told CNN, \u201cMost people who have received a degree of public recognition find themselves financially pretty well off. Doesn't happen to be the case with astronauts.\u201d And so he found himself working for a Cadillac dealership in Beverly Hills\u2014though by his own admission he wasn\u2019t very good at it. He explained in his memoir Magnificent Desolation, \u201cI was a terrible salesman ... People came onto the lot in search of a car, and as soon as I struck up a conversation with them, the subject immediately turned from the comfort and convenience of a new or used luxury automobile to space travel. I spent more time signing autographs than anything else ... In fact, I didn\u2019t sell a single car the entire time I worked at [the dealer].\u201d\n16. AN EXPERIMENT LEFT ON THE MOON DURING THE APOLLO MISSIONS IS STILL ONGOING.\nOne of the most lasting contributions of Apollo 11 was a 2-foot-wide panel consisting of 100 mirrors. Similar objects were left by Apollos 14 and 15, as well as Soviet rovers. Called the Lunar Laser Ranging Retroreflector experiment, it is \"the only Apollo experiment that is still returning data from the Moon,\u201d according to the Lunar and Planetary Institute. The experiment works by shooting a laser at the mirror and waiting for the reflection\u2014but as anyone who has shined a laser pointer knows, while they don\u2019t disperse as much as other light sources, lasers still disperse. In the case of the Moon, the laser is 4.3 miles in diameter when it hits the Moon, and 12.4 miles wide when it returns to Earth. But thanks to the program we\u2019ve been able to learn that the Moon is moving roughly 1.5 inches away from the Earth every year, and gain new insights into Einstein\u2019s Theory of General Relativity.\n17. NEARLY HALF A CENTURY AFTER THE FINAL APOLLO MISSION, HUMAN EXPLORATION STILL MATTERS.\nIt\u2019s often said that we\u2019ve never returned to the Moon after Apollo. That\u2019s not quite true\u2014in 2016, China\u2019s Yutu rover ceased operations after spending 31 months on the Moon. But humans haven\u2019t returned, and that may be a problem.\nIn 2012, Ian Crawford of Birkbeck College London wrote a paper arguing that human space travel has its benefits over robotic exploration. For one, \u201chuman missions like Apollo are between two and three orders of magnitude more efficient in performing exploration tasks than robotic missions, while being only one to two orders of magnitude more expensive\u201d [PDF]. The paper also points out that missions like Apollo are funded and undertaken for a wide range of sociopolitical reasons, and humanity can benefit in many ways.\nNot everyone is convinced. Some critics argue that autonomous robots, with their rapidly improving abilities, are the better option. It\u2019s a question with serious implications for the future of space exploration.\nLists science Space",

        "raw_content": "Russian President Vladimir Putin attends a meeting with Venezuelan leader Nicol\u00e1s Maduro on Wednesday at the Novo-Ogaryovo state residence outside Moscow. (Maxim Shemetov/Reuters) Adam Taylor\nA new survey of 25 countries has found largely negative views of Russia and its leader, President Vladimir Putin, all around the world.\nAt the same time, however, Russia\u2019s influence on the world stage is seen as growing, according to the survey data released by Pew Research Center on Thursday.\nThe results suggest that though Russia is facing myriad problems \u2014 including U.S. sanctions, geopolitical isolation and a ruthless reputation \u2014 Putin has found ways to project Moscow\u2019s power globally.\nIn key regions like the Middle East, Moscow appears to be enjoying the kind of influence that it has not seen since the days of the Soviet Union \u2014 often challenging American interests in the process.\nBut while the United States and Russia are often rivals for power and influence on the global stage, in many nations Putin and President Trump are viewed in a similar manner: Pew\u2019s data showed there was considerable overlap in negative views of the two leaders.\nThis correlation was not seen between Trump and French President Emmanuel Macron or German Chancellor Angela Merkel, and less pronounced with Chinese President Xi Jinping. In some countries, the overlap between negative views of Putin and Trump was huge: 83 percent in Spain had negative views of both; 77 percent in France.\nIn contrast there was comparatively little overlap in positive views of Putin and Trump in most countries. The Philippines was the only nation where a majority, 54 percent, said they had confidence in both leaders to do the right thing in global affairs.\nPutin, who has been accused of personal involvement in major international moves \u2014 like the attempt to influence the 2016 U.S. election or the attempted assassination of a former Russian spy in Britain \u2014 is viewed very negatively in a large number of the countries surveyed by Pew. Across the 25 countries polled, a median of 26 percent had confidence in Putin to do the right thing in global affairs; 63 percent had no confidence.\nSuch views were considerably lower than for other world leaders, like Merkel or Macron, though they were more positive than Trump\u2019s. There were only two countries where a majority viewed Putin positively: the Philippines (61 percent) and Tunisia (53 percent).\nViews of Russia as a whole were slightly more positive, with a median of 34 percent of the countries polled expressing favorable views of Russia while 54 percent expressed unfavorable views. The Philippines (63 percent), Tunisia (55 percent), South Korea (53 percent) and Greece (52 percent) were the only four countries where a majority held positive views of Russia.\nIn most countries, positive views of both Putin and Russia have fallen considerably in recent years. In Sweden, unfavorable views of Russia grew from 59 percent in 2007 to 79 percent in 2018 \u2014 the highest unfavorable rating found in all countries, tied with the Netherlands.\nConfidence in Putin, already low, has also dipped in most countries surveyed. However, it has increased in some countries, most notably the Philippines, where confidence grew from 38 percent in 2014 to 61 percent in 2018.\nBut if negative views of Russia are growing, so are assessments of its influence. Pew found that a median of 42 percent thought that Moscow\u2019s role in the world was more important than it was 10 years ago, compared to 19 percent who thought it was less important and 28 percent who thought it was the same.\nThere did not appear to be a direct link between appraisals of Russian influence and approval of the country. Only 23 percent of the Philippines thought Russia\u2019s role in the world was more important, compared with 22 percent who said it was less important. But in Greece and Tunisia, majorities thought the country was more important (65 percent and 59 percent respectively).\nComparatively, a median of 31 percent thought the United States played a more important role in the world today than 10 years ago \u2014 while 70 percent of thought that China was more important.\nRussia does not have the superpower status that the United States or even China does. Despite its vast land mass and large population, it has a gross domestic product of $1.5 trillion \u2014 putting it closer in economic scale to South Korea or Canada.\nBut Russia has leveraged both high-cost foreign policy moves like the military intervention in Syria and relatively low-cost acts, like the numerous acts of misinformation it has been accused of, to cast a larger shadow over global affairs.\nKremlin image-makers have also played up Putin\u2019s personal image to impress foreign audiences. \u201cWe intensified Putin\u2019s mystery on purpose,\u201d Putin\u2019s former political strategist Gleb Pavlovsky told The Washington Post. \u201cYou need to create an image of power\u201d in a weak state.\nWithin Russia, Putin remains a remarkably popular figure. Although his domestic approval ratings have dipped recently, at 66 percent they still remain the envy of most Western politicians. Notably, most of Putin\u2019s problems appear to be domestic in focus, while foreign policy can be tied to boosts in his popularity. According to Pew, 72 percent of the country believe the country is more important on the world stage than a decade ago.\nThe Pew Research Center survey was conducted from May to August among national random samples of 915 to 2,521 interviews in each of the 25 countries. The margin of sampling error for each country ranges from plus or minus 2.8 to 5.1 percentage points.\nIs there a link between Putin\u2019s approval rating and aggressive Russian foreign policy?\n9 charts that lay out Russia\u2019s uncertain future \u2014 with or without Putin",

        "raw_content": "The research library of VNIIM is one of few libraries that have historically formed unique stocks of a great scientific and cultural value.\nThe library started with a small collection of books belonging to the Depot of Reference Weights and Measures (1842-1892) renamed in 1893 into the Main Chamber of Weights and Measures. D.I.Mendeleyev, the first curator of the Chamber, increased the stocks of the library with his own books (about 1500 volumes). Year 1893 is considered to be the year of foundation of the library.\nThe library was located originally on the ground floor of the main building of the Chamber, which was built in 1879 by the project of architect F.F.Beckman. Later, in 1916, after heightening of the building (arch. A.F.Bubyr), the library was transferred to a new room on the second floor. In 1917, its stock numbered 4842 units of issue.\nIn 1927, the library of the J.-Rene Benoi, French metrologist, Honorary Director of the Bureau International des Poids et Mesures in Paris, was acquired. It numbered about 2000 issues including publications on natural history, physics and chemistry.\nNowadays, the library possesses a lot of valuable books and a great number of periodicals on metrology, physics, chemistry and mathematics, which were published before the coup of 1917, among which there are:\nD.I.Mendeleyev.

        "raw_content": "BBC Two sets Trust for September premiere\nDanny Boyle\u2019s Trust finally has a UK air date, with the drama set to premiere on BBC Two this September.\nThe star-studded new drama from Boyle and executive producers Simon Beaufoy and Christian Colson is based on the notorious true-life kidnapping of the heir to billionaire John Paul Getty \u2013 one of the world\u2019s wealthiest businessmen.\nThe series was snapped up by Sky at the start of the year, ahead of its US broadcast in March. Now, the BBC has picked up the series, after Sky dropped it.\nPaul\u2019s grandfather, J. Paul Getty Sr. (Donald Sutherland), an enigmatic oil tycoon and possibly the richest man in the world, is marooned in a Tudor mansion in the English countryside surrounded by a harem of mistresses and a pet lion. He\u2019s busy. Paul\u2019s father, J. Paul Getty Jr. (Michael Esper), is lost in a daze in London and refuses to answer the phone. Only Paul\u2019s mother, Gail Getty (Hilary Swank), is left to negotiate with the increasingly desperate kidnappers. Unfortunately, she\u2019s broke.\nThe 10-part series will premiere at 9pm on BBC Two on Wednesday 12th September, BBC Two has confirmed, with episodes airing weekly.\nTrust to air on BBC Two in UK\nBBC Two has become the UK TV home of Danny Boyle\u2019s FX series Trust.\nTrust stars Donald Sutherland (The Hunger Games) as J. Paul Getty Senior, the oil tycoon and art collector at the head of the Getty family, alongside a stellar cast that includes Hilary Swank (Million Dollar Baby), Brendan Fraser (The Mummy), Harris Dickinson (Beach Rats), Anna Chancellor (Ordeal By Innocence), Charlotte Riley (Peaky Blinders), Amanda Drew (Broadchurch) and Sophie Winkleman (Peep Show).\nIt opens in 1973 with the kidnapping of John Paul Getty III (Dickinson), heir to the Getty fortune, in Rome. His captors bank on a multi-million dollar ransom, but back in England Paul\u2019s wealthy grandfather (Sutherland) refuses to pay up. With Paul\u2019s father (Michael Esper) lost in a drug-induced daze, it is left to Paul\u2019s mother \u2013 the penniless Gail Getty (Swank) \u2013 to negotiate with both the increasingly desperate kidnappers and her stubborn former father-in-law to save her son.\nPatrick Holland, Controller of BBC Two, says: \u201cI am tremendously excited that Trust is coming to BBC Two. The series has the unique scale, singular vision and extraordinary swagger that only Danny Boyle, Simon Beaufoy and Christian Colson can bring.\u201d\nSue Deeks, Head of BBC Programme Acquisition, adds: \u201cTrust is bold storytelling, made with verve, style and ambition. The Getty family have captured the public\u2019s imagination like few others, and there is no better team to reimagine their story for television than the award-winning trio of Danny Boyle, Simon Beaufoy and Christian Colson. We\u2019re very excited to bring this compelling new series to BBC Two.\u201d\nThe ten-part series will premiere in the UK exclusively on BBC Two this year, and was acquired by the channel from Twentieth Century Fox Television Distribution. It continues a run of FX dramas on BBC Two, including anthology series American Crime Story.\nSky snaps up UK TV rights to FX\u2019s Trust\nSky Atlantic will be the UK TV home for FX series Trust, which stars Donald Sutherland and Hilary Swank.\nFrom the Oscar-winning Sulmdog Millionaire team of Danny Boyle, Simon Beaufoy and Christian Colson, it tells the rebellious story of the kidnapping of John Paul Getty III, heir to the Getty oil fortune. Inspired by actual events, the 10-part series delves into the trials and triumphs of one of America\u2019s wealthiest and unhappiest families. Equal parts dynastic saga and an examination of the corrosive power of money, Trust explores the complexities at the heart of every family, rich or poor.\nTold over multiple series and spanning the 20th century, Trust begins in 1973 with the kidnapping of John Paul Getty III (Harris Dickinson), an heir to the Getty oil fortune, by the Italian mafia in Rome. His captors banked on a multi-million dollar ransom. After all, what rich family wouldn\u2019t pay for the return of a loved one? Paul\u2019s grandfather, J. Paul Getty Sr. (Donald Sutherland), an enigmatic oil tycoon and possibly the richest man in the world, is marooned in a Tudor mansion in the English countryside surrounded by a harem of mistresses and a pet lion. He\u2019s busy. Paul\u2019s father, J. Paul Getty Jr. (Michael Esper), is lost in a daze in London and refuses to answer the phone. Only Paul\u2019s mother, Gail Getty (Hilary Swank), is left to negotiate with the increasingly desperate kidnappers. Unfortunately, she\u2019s broke. Trust charts the teenage grandson\u2019s nightmare ordeal at the hands of kidnappers who cannot understand why nobody seems to want their captive back.\nTrust is written by Simon Beaufoy and executive produced by Danny Boyle, Beaufoy and Christian Colson, with Boyle directing the first three episodes. The show is produced by FX Productions, Cloud Eight Films, Decibal Films and Snicket Films Limited.\nTrust was acquired for Sky from Twentieth Century Fox Television Distribution by Lucy Criddle, Sky\u2019s Head of Acquisitions Series.

        "raw_content": "Why Have We Underestimated Housing Demand Growth? Health care could account for almost a third of Hong Kong GDP by end of century\nHow Hong Kong could be a better city\nJane Jacobs (1916-2006) was a writer, thinker and activist. She railed against the received wisdom of the period\u2019s urban planners who promoted rigid master zoning plans and called for bulldozing slums, opening up city spaces, and resettling the displaced in either \u201cskyscrapers in a park\u201d or in \u201cgarden cities\u201d that were self-contained communities surrounded by a greenbelt. Hong Kong\u2019s public housing estates are a direct descendent of this mindset.\nJacobs thought that cities worked best when they had mixed primary uses. Putting residential, commercial, office, small industrial and public uses within close proximity creates symbiotic relationships and increases the life of a city, so the streets are busy throughout the day.\nShe also argued to retain ageing buildings and mix them with the new. Older buildings not only connect with history and provide character, but they are generally cheaper to rent or buy. This allows a broader range of businesses and housing to co-exist.\nJacobs\u2019 work led to a new appreciation of why a diverse mix of uses does not lead to chaos, but to a more developed form of order. What she advocated was organized complexity, rather than either simplicity or disorganized complexity. Wanchai provides a good example of this where the imposed simplicity north of Connaught Road stands in stark contrast to the spontaneous diversity to the south.\nWell-functioning urban areas spring from \u201chuman action\u201d not \u201chuman design.\u201d Perhaps Jacobs\u2019s greatest contribution is her view that it is precisely the diversity and occasional anarchy of great cities that makes them great; diversity should be encouraged rather than tidied away by zoning regulations that pay little regard to the consequences. Jacobs was a grass roots social activist, but a profound believer of the \u201cspontaneous order.\u201d\nIn contrast to those ideas, the public housing projects that have been very much in style everywhere since the 1950s and 1960s are largely income sorted. They are built specifically for lower income people. Income sorting tends to encourage insular neighborhoods; the labeling effect creates a polarizing perception of \u201cus versus them\u201d that reduces cross-traffic and sources of diversity, and ultimately leads to fewer retail businesses as they thrive in a diverse environment that crosses income divides.\nThe only saving virtue of public rental housing estates in Hong Kong is that in the first 20 years of the program, they were built in urban areas and most tenants were resettled squatters who were not means tested. The stigma of low income housing became increasingly stuck over time when the predominant reason why people were admitted into the estates was the lack of means. This coincided with the location of estates in far off satellite towns that are socially and culturally isolated and, in the past 20 years, with an increasing number of single-parent households.\nJacobs\u2019s simple and cogent point is that successful neighborhoods are ones that win the loyalty of their residents by making them want to stay and improve their environment rather than move on at the first opportunity. For this and other reasons (chiefly to address the wide gulf in propertied assets between the \u201chaves\u201d and \u201chave-nots\u201d), I have advocated the privatization of public housing estates so that those who stay can feel they belong to the community and feel proud to contribute to its improvement. I have always thought it conceited to regard public housing estates as a sort of purgatory from which those who redeem themselves can move onto the Homeownership Schemes provided by the Housing Authority.\nUrban development in big vibrant cities undergoes continual change and must evolve with the ebb and flow of city life. It must not be welded to rigid master plans. Jacobs believed that some of our popular conceptions of ideal urban planning, like zoning and sorting housing by income, are not only wrong but actively destructive to large cities.\nIn this century, Hong Kong will experience massive and rapid changes in the demographic structure of our population that are unprecedented in modern history (Japan excepted). It is imperative our city embrace flexible market solutions to avoid isolating our low-income elderly population and our young children (especially those in single-parent households) in public housing estates in remote areas. If half the people in our society live as serfs, then our politics and economics will increasingly become hopelessly divided.",

        "raw_content": "Today\u2019s advanced medical equipment requires technicians with special skills in order to ensure it continues to operate properly. A medical equipment repairer is a valuable part of any medical clinic or hospital, as they keep machines running smoothly so that patient care can continue uninterrupted.\nWhat Medical Equipment Repairers Do\nMedical equipment repair technicians maintain and repair all sorts of equipment ranging from x-ray machines to heart monitoring equipment. They may also inspect machines on a regular basis in order to perform preventative maintenance checks and services that will help reduce the number of breakdowns. These technicians can work in a variety of settings including hospitals, medical and dental clinics, surgery centers or nursing homes.\nIn order to be a successful medical equipment repair technician, an individual will need to possess certain skills and abilities including:\nBeing able to troubleshoot equipment\nHaving an ability to work well under strict deadlines\nManual dexterity in order to work in very small spaces\nGood decision-making skills are also important, as these technicians may sometimes need to determine which pieces of equipment will be repaired first, or whether or not a particular machine should be taken out of service due to a mechanical defect.\nMedical Equipment Repairer Education and Training\nThose who are interested in becoming medical equipment repair technicians can gain the necessary skills by earning an Associate\u2019s degree in this discipline. One of these programs will discuss the use of different tools such as soldering irons that are often used in this line of work. They will also teach students how to troubleshoot and repair different types of medical equipment, which can sometimes involve the use of special software designed especially for that purpose.\nClassroom instruction will provide individuals with a basic understanding of each machine\u2019s function, along with general knowledge about electronic circuit boards and how to keep maintenance logs. Each course will also provide students with the opportunity to perform hands-on maintenance and repair functions under the supervision of an instructor who is experienced with a particular piece of equipment.\nSome colleges also offer Bachelor\u2019s degree programs in medical equipment repair. One of these programs will provide more in-depth training on different machines, and can be ideal for those who would like to supervise a group of medical repair technicians in a large patient care facility.\nAfter being hired, new workers will need to complete several hours of on-the-job training before they are able to perform repairs on their own. This training program can last several weeks, and may primarily involve doing preventative maintenance in the beginning. As managers become more confident in their abilities, they will then be allowed to troubleshoot and repair equipment on their own. Even after working in this field for some time, technicians could find themselves needing to be retrained whenever equipment is upgraded. The manufacturers of certain medical equipment often provide this training on site.\nMedical Equipment Repairer Working Conditions\nSince it is imperative that medical equipment functions properly, repair technicians can sometimes be required to work unusual hours, to include overnight shifts. This is especially true for those who work in critical care units of a hospital, where they repair lifesaving surgical equipment. In some cases, employees may even have to work on equipment while it is being used. As such, they must be able to stay focused so that they do not become distracted by a patient\u2019s condition while performing their work.\nAccording to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the demand for medical repair workers is expected to increase by 31% over the next few years. Advances in technology will continue to spur demand for these highly skilled technicians.\nHow to Become an Electrical & Electronics Installer & Repairman",

It is not intended for long-term use or for use without an appropriate diet plan.\nPhendimetrazine can be taken in conjunction with Phentermine, as a night-time, fast, rapid release medication that will quickly curb sudden night-time cravings. It is a fast acting pill, so the appetite suppressant should be felt shortly after taking it.\nWith obesity on the rise, many people are looking for products to help with weight loss. Although the ideal weight loss plans focus on gradual weight loss by eating a healthy diet and increasing physical activity, many people have difficulty following such plans or feel they need extra assistance in their efforts. Before turning to drastic measures such as weight loss surgery, many people consider using weight loss pills, especially if they have unsuccessfully tried to control their weight and exercise and diet have been ineffective.\nTypes of weight gain can be divided into two categories: endogenous weight gain and exogenous weight gain. Endogenous weight gain is caused by an identifiable medical condition, such as hypothyroidism. Exogenous weight gain is caused by eating too much and exercising too little. Phendimetrazine is meant to treat exogenous weight gain. It is not meant to treat weight gain due to a known medical cause.\nWhether you have a little weight or a lot of weight to lose, you can possibly use this medication to assist you.\nIf you have more questions feel free to call our office.",

This will be on a trial basis making sure I am not rushing my \u201chealing\u201d. I am just looking to have some moderate exercise, a little sweat and a break. Mamas know we need breaks. I\u2019ve got all of the time in the world\u2026no reason to rush this process right?\nIf you\u2019re just starting out, or just starting back in, join me! This plan would be perfect for you too.\nMonday: A short cardio workout while my husband is home on lunch break to watch baby. I am so thankful my gym is literally 2 minutes from my house. Here\u2019s the workout I plan on doing. http://workoutplanz.com/playlist-workout-sampler/\nBaby has his circumcision in the middle of the week so realistically, I better plan the rest for the end of the week.\nFriday: Before my husband goes to work, I plan on doing more cardio. Our gym has a virtual studio, so I plan on doing one of the 30 minute moderate Spinning rides (we\u2019ll see how that goes post-baby on the saddle).\nSaturday: The hubby will be going to work midday so plan \u201cA\u201d is to make it for a BodyFlow class at the gym at 10am. But, if that doesn\u2019t work, plan \u201cB\u201d will be cardio and a long stretch. I might use the virtual studio for gentle yoga. My back and backs of my legs need a good stretch.\nI have not made any formal attempts to \u201ctrim\u201d up my nutrition. (It\u2019s not realistic nor is it embracing the season I am in.) Right now, I am trying to drink water all day long. I am also trying to make a conscious effort to eat what I need along with a lot of what I want Time can get away from you with a new baby and 4 kids so I am making sure I eat even if I don\u2019t feel like it or would rather do something else. I am not a \u201cdiet\u201d advocate. But, probably around 2 months, I will begin refocusing on nutrition for myself and my family. Again, this is another \u201cbreak\u201d I am giving myself. I don\u2019t have a lot of \u201cprep\u201d time for meal planning, etc\u2026so we\u2019ve enjoyed food made by friends and I am going to stick with what I can make in short amounts of time. When it\u2019s time to refocus, I\u2019ll probably take a look at what I weigh and do a food log to see how my metabolism is looking (how many calories I am needing.) I am nursing the babe so that changes things for me a bit.\nChange is a journey and a process not an event.\nA journey or process is step by step. One step at a time. One foot in front of the other. I am sure you are thinking about changes that need to be made and what steps you need to take. We all start talking about it at this time of year. I\u2019d love to help you if you are looking to make some changes. I will be posting to Facebook some specifics of how I think I can help. I\u2019ll try to remember to mention it in the blog for those of you Non-FB folks.\nI\u2019ll post later this week with a few \u201cnaked\u201d thoughts and an update with how I feel after this week gets rollin\u2019.",

The hour, some little time before sunset, and the place, the West Barricade, at the very spot where, a decade later, a proud tyrant raised an undying monument to the nation?s glory and his own vanity. During the greater part of the day the guillotine had been kept busy at its ghastly work: all that France had boasted of in the past centuries, of ancient names, and blue blood, had paid toll to her desire for liberty and for fraternity. The carnage had only ceased at this late hour of the day because there were other more interesting sights for the people to witness, a little while before the final closing of the barricades for the night.\nTable of Contents: THE SCARLET PIMPERNEL, 1 -- BARONESS ORCZY, 1",

Constitution 1812 Marine Guard, announced the successful resolution of a two-year long civil complaint against James J. Murphy.\nHistoric Marine Education filed a civil complaint against Murphy on Feb 17, 2015 seeking the return of its cannon and related equipment.\nThe Trial Courts of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts ruled that Murphy had committed the act of conversion, the civil act of theft, and ordered Murphy to return the cannon and all of its related property or pay damages.\nMurphy has opted to pay the damages and maintain possession of the cannon and its related materials instead of returning the items to Historic Marine Education. Murphy has exhausted all of his appeals.\nStan Kumor, President of Historic Marine Education, stated, \u201cWe are pleased that the matter has been resolved in our favor but disappointed that the courts have allowed Mr. Murphy to pay damages instead of returning our property. However, now the organization will be able to continue to fully dedicate our time, energy and spirit to educating the public in cooperation with our partners.\u201d\nMurphy was formerly a member of the organization and dismissed by more than a 2/3 majority vote of the members present at a Special Meeting, Feb 21, 2015, due to the civil action.\nCopies of the court judgments are pictured below, click on them to open a larger copy.\nJury Trial Judgment for HME Inc 2-17-2017\nMagistrate Judgement for HME Inc 5-14-2015\nAbout Historic Marine Education, Inc.\nBased in the oldest Marine Barracks building in the United States, Historic Marine Education, Inc.

        "raw_content": "Web Directory Article Details\nWedding, marriage, Celebration, shopping, enjoyment, life,\nAuthor: Raghuraman\nOne of life\u2019s prehistoric and a shockingly untouched rite is undeniably Wedding. It\u2019s a ritual and associated service by which two people swear to spend their lives as one in marriage. Being chiefly a festivity of care and company, a marriage also has lawful and religious importance. It is a founding in which private associations such as care and sexual habits of different customs unite. On the whole chosen from the culture it is derived from, wedding has its own importance. Such unification may also be called matrimony. Exchange of culture between couple and family also takes place. The couple vows to be jointly as a column of support, by expressing their thanks to their community for supporting and caring them. Wedding traditions and way of life differ significantly amid cultures, religions, cultural groups, community classes and countries. Exchange of wedding oaths by the couple is a familiar sight at any wedding. Presentation of a gift to the couple is one habit that is in practice for over many years. Creating a sense of legal responsibility between the individuals involved is the sole purpose of any wedding. Extending to a certain family members of the married persons, these compulsions are also followed by a lot of societies. After the completion of a marriage ceremony, the couple might have a wedding reception or party held which includes a meal to all the people who attended the wedding. As a symbol of fertility, wedding cakes are served but today more normally is used to express hopes for a lovable life for the pair. The reception is an additional chance for the couple to pay tribute and thank their family and friends for supporting them. Some people choose to have music and dancing, including the couple's symbolic first dance and family dances such as the father-daughter dance. Nearly all of the customs we observe today are merely echoes of the past. Everything from the blanket, rice, flowers, and old shoes, to the bridesmaids and processionals, at one time, bore a very specific and vitally significant meaning. Nowadays, even though the novel stuff is habitually lost, we fit in old world customs into our weddings since they are customary and ritualistic. The reason for welcoming guests is to have them see the couple's marriage ritual, swears and to share in their happiness and party. By being presence at a wedding, the guests also agree to endorse this couple in their marriage. Vow of support might also be asked to be taken by the couple to the guests. Offerings for the wedding pair are not obligatory, though most guests try to present at least a voucher gift of their best wishes. Marriages involving dowry have become a common practice in most countries, such practices over the years have reduced the spiritual essence of wedding ceremonies. But with marriage being one of the most important social occasions for any family, it must be held in a grand manner and remembered as the most joyous moment of their life.",

        "raw_content": "Modelling Emotions in Music: Advances in Conceptual, Contextual and Validity Issues\nDepartment of Music, Durham University, UK\nModelling emotion recognition and induction by music has garnered increased attention during the last years. The present work puts together observations of the issues that need attention in order to make advances in music emotion recognition. These are divided into conceptual, contextual and data validity issues. Within each issue, the central dilemmas are discussed and promising further avenues are presented. In conceptual issues, significant discrepancies in the terminologies and choices for emotion focus and models exist. In contextual issues, the primary area of improvement is incorporating music and user contexts into emotion recognition. For the validity of data, reliable estimation of mid-level musical concepts require significant attention and optimal combination of studies with high validity and high stimulus quantity is the key to robust music emotion recognition models.\nTuomas Eerola is professor of music cognition at Durham University, UK. He studied music cognition combining musicology and psychology at the University of Jyv\u00e4skyl\u00e4, Finland. After completing MA in 1997, he took postgraduate studies at the University of Leicester, UK, and was enrolled to Graduate School of Music and Sound Research in Finland, from which he was awarded a PhD in musicology in 2003. He has been a member of Faculty at the University of Jyv\u00e4skyl\u00e4, first as an Assistant Professor and from 2006 onwards as Professor. His research and teaching cover a number of areas within the psychology of music. The current projects involve perception and induction of emotions in music, which he approaches by combining computational modelling with empirical experiments. He is the first author of a widely used computational toolbox for music analysis (MIDI Toolbox, 2004), has pioneered the study of acoustic and musical correlates of emotions from audio, and has published more than 60 papers and book chapters on topics including musical similarity, melodic expectations, perception of rhythm and timbre, induction and perception of emotions. He is also on the editorial board of Psychology of Music and is consulting editor for Musicae Scientiae.",

        "raw_content": "HomeAim High Profits News LUSI | Louisiana Food Company Trading Like Tabasco Sauce\nLUSI | Louisiana Food Company Trading Like Tabasco Sauce\nBam! Yeah Emeril Lagasse, who\u2019s birthday is coming up in a few days, put Lousiana cooking on the map together with Paul Prudhomme, but Asher Enterprises is putting one of Lousiana\u2019s penny stocks on the map in a big way today. Louisiana Food Company (LUSI) jumped over 180% after our Twitter alert this morning after the Company, who is delayed in their SEC filings, broke out in the early morning. LUSI stock is jumping not because of the revenues for the year ended September 30th, but because Asher owns 9.99% of the outstanding shares and its about to get profiled.\nLUSI Stock Chart\nLast: 0.0042, up 0.0022 (110.00%)\nThree days ago, in advance of their ended September 30, 2012 10-Q filing, Louisiana Food\u2019s President, David Loflin, updated investors by stating that, although the quarter did not supply net income, revenues were approximately $60,000 under a food services management agreement. The issue with htis is not the numbers, but the method.\nThe last 10-Q filed by the Company was for the period ended March 31, 2012. So basically, we\u2019re missing 6 months of raw data to use for due diligence. We know that on June 18th, Asher Enterprises filed a 13G to indicate their ownership of 3,096,958 shares, 9.99% f the total outstanding shares at that time.\nRegardless of the raw data, Loflin indicated that new relationships have been established for the placement of LUSI\u2018s specialty food and coffee products in retail outlets in all areas of Louisiana, as well as for the sale-in-bulk of certain of their specialty food to restaurants. They need roughly $30,000 to implement this which could be the reason why the stock is hot today.\nAbout LUSI Stock\nLouisiana Food Company is focused on the development and commercial exploitation of food-related business opportunities in the State of Louisiana. To date, the Company has developed a line of specialty packaged dry products, a line of specialty pasta sauces and a line of specialty coffee products, and sells these specialty food product lines to distributors, retailers and over the Internet. Because each of the Company\u2019s products is produced locally in Louisiana, the Louisiana Department of Agriculture and Forestry has granted the Company a license to affix the Department\u2019s \u201cCertified\u201d logos on the Company\u2019s products.\nBottom Line: LUSI is having a nice run today and should be on the list of penny stocks to watch going into the next week. Big props to J.T. for catching this one. Revenues of $60k are a good sign that the Company is successfully implementing its business plan. LUSI stock is so thinly traded and with such a small number of shares outstanding that a run to a penny is not totally out of question.\nLast updated by Michael Adams at October 5, 2012 .",

        "title": "Angel Rocks Trailhead",
        "raw_content": "Fairbanks & Interior > Things To Do > Parks & Trails > Angel Rocks Trailhead\nAngel Rocks Trailhead\nA short or long day hike awaits at Angel Rocks, a scenic drive out Chena Hot Springs Road and within easy range of the rejuvenating waters that have drawn travelers for over a century. Angel Rocks is a popular attraction in itself, with unique geologic formations formed by molten rock forced upward from the deep layers of the Earth, which cooled and hardened close to the surface. As the ground eroded around them, these granite pillars have been exposed and are now impossible to miss. They date back for millions of years and stand fewer than two miles off the road.\nTo get to the trailhead for either hike, take Chena Hot Springs Road and look for signs pointing to the Angel Rock Trailhead, about 49 miles from Fairbanks. If you\u2019ve reached the hot springs, you\u2019ve gone too far. Both trails fall within Chena River State Recreation Area, and there is a small fee required to park at the trailhead. A picnic area and restrooms are also available here. Watch for blueberries along the trails in late August. Just remember\u2014bears love them, too!\nAngel Rocks Trail (3.5 mile loop)\nThe best option for a short day trip in this area is the 3.5-mile loop that begins on even ground along the north fork of the Chena River and then sharply climbs up 900ft. in elevation to peak among a half dozen granite outcrops that jut from the hillside. Climb on top for spectacular views of the valley. The trail is clearly marked from the parking lot. Scrambling onto these rocks provides a clear view of the landscape, unobstructed by trees and standing high above the road on which you arrived. Once you\u2019re at the top, you can continue on the loop, return back by the trail on which you came, or make your way to the lip of the ridge to try and glimpse the Alaska Range. This trail is 1,750 ft. in elevation at its highest point. The hike takes two or three hours, but you should allow plenty of time to take in the scenery, climb on the rocks, or have lunch at the top. You might see rock climbers and rappelers taking turns scaling or descending the faces around you.\nAngel Rocks to Chena Hot Springs Trail (8.3 miles one-way)\nFor a longer hike to end with a refreshing dip in natural hot springs, park at the same trailhead and follow the signs to the 8.3-mile (one-way) Angel Rocks to Chena Hot Spring Trail. This trail begins on the same route as the shorter loop, but continues over a ridge (reaching 2,800 ft. in elevation at its highest point) to Chena Hot Springs Resort. On a clear day, hikers are rewarded with views of the Alaska Range, Chena Dome, Far Mountain, and Bear Paw Butte. A trail shelter is available on a first-come, first-serve basis at just past the halfway point. A natural spring occasionally bubbles up not far after, but hikers shouldn\u2019t rely on this as a water source. The trail splits into upper and lower routes at six miles, and both end at Chena Hot Springs Resort. The upper trail includes a spur off to the peak of Bear Paw Butte.\nAllow at least five to eight hours to complete this hike in one direction. A dip in the springs costs $15 (plus $5 for a towel, or bring your own), and most hikers find it easy to hitchhike from the resort back to their cars at the trailhead.",

You can see from our results that when we do that, we're unstoppable. We go into these games with a game plan and just executing those,\" he said.\nCoach Andy Friend said he had enormous belief in the side while their own belief had been growing. Part of that had been reinforcing their aggressive defence plan on Sunday morning and after that discussion the side hadn't looked back.\n\"There are three big words that define us: one is we're clinical, one is we're united and one is we're unrelenting, and that unrelenting part has always been in this team. We never give up and we basically build our team on that,\" he said.\nThe clinical side had been seen during the play-offs but it was only a start, there was still more to be done.\n\"We've got a big job this weekend\u2026but we'll make sure we turn up next weekend and back it up,\" he said.\nFurther down the line, the win had been a timely boost to the side's profile ahead of the Commonwealth Games and Friend said: \"We've got a home Commonwealth Games up on the Gold Coast and who knows what's going to happen there now?\"",

        "raw_content": "Florence, Paris, Dubai: An Architect without borders\nAndrea Cubattoli holds a degree with honours from the International Laurea Magistrale in Architectural Design. He also studied and worked in France but now he is about to leave for the Arab Emirates.\nA study abroad experience as well as a good knowledge of foreign languages are often key factors \u2013 especially for a recent graduate \u2013 in landing a job. However passions, fine skills and a bit of luck are also very important in finding the right path. This is what the story of Andrea Cubattoli tells us. Andrea, 27, was born in Florence and graduated with honours in Architectural Design taking part in an international degree programme. He then worked as intern for a prestigious French studio before landing his first job also thanks to AlmaLaurea. Andrea speaks English and French very fluently, but he knows Spanish as well and some German. He his now packing his suitcase again for a new job adventure which will take him to Dubai. \u201cI\u2019m sure I\u2019m gonna miss the Italian quality of life but I\u2019m also sure this experience will make me grow\u201d.\nAndrea, where does your passion for architecture come from?\n\u201cIt is a family passion as my father is also an architect\u201d.\nWhat about your experience at the University of Florence?\n\u201cOverall, I can say it was a pretty positive one. If I can advance any criticism, I may say not all the teachers were as prepared as they should be, some of them were too theoretical not showing real interest in the daily reality of the architectural profession, while others lacked that caring attitude that a teacher has always to express towards students\u201d.\nWhat are the most important features of the Architectural Design degree course?\n\u201cThe Architectural Design degree course is conducted in English even though I have to say not all the lecturers had a great command of the English language. During my first year I was based in Florence: we were only fifteen students, so we were very well looked after, almost as during high school years. During the second year, I went to Paris to study under an Erasmus programme, where I completed a Semester at the \u00c9cole Nationale Sup\u00e9riore d\u2019Architecture and the second half of the academic year of internship.\u201d\nWhat can you tell us about the main differences between the French course and the Italian one?\n\u201cIn both Florence and Paris we were not a high number of students. Unlike in Italy, however, at the Paris School of Architecture professors are really focused on an artistic as well as social approach to architecture. The study projects put a strong emphasis on human components such as composition, with less prominence on structural and technological factors. All the professors were also successful designers by profession\u201d.\nYou said you also worked as intern\u2026\n\u201cYes, I did an internship at the atelier of Christian de Portzamparc, where I had already been during the period in-between the end of the Laurea Triennale and the beginning of the Specialistica and with whom I was in touch ever since. It is a renowned studio with international orders. Mr. Portzamparc is a versatile artist who explores well beyond architecture itself. He is a celebrity in France. This was a great learning experience: I was dealing directly with the studio\u2019s clients and I supervised projects supposed to compete at the main architectural contests\u201d.\nAnd after Paris, what else?\n\u201cI came back to Florence in order to complete my thesis fascinated by a project proposal from my professor Lorenzo Giorgi about simulations\u2019 software in a dynamic regime. It was a very specific as well as hard work which took me almost a year, even though at the end my commitment was rewarded with the honours. After my graduation I had started looking for a job abroad, when I was contacted by a large construction company in Florence, the Inso, one of the largest construction engineering company in Italy. They approached me right through AlmaLaurea: it was a surprise as they were looking for an intern as a proposal manager for the French-speaking countries and they came across my resume through the website\u201d.\nWhat are the main tasks for a proposal manager?\n\u201cA proposal manager is the person who manages the tender process with special reference to the tender preparation and the interfacing with the various professionals involved; it is a professional figure that must demonstrate both technical as well as creative skills\u201d.\n\u201cI\u2019m about to leave for Dubai, where I got a very interesting job offer still as a proposal manager for an Arab Emirates company. I will be responsible especially for international trade relations. I will begin with a three-year contract with the first six months as a probation period\u201d.\nAt last a typical question: what do you think about AlmaLaurea?\n\u201cI find AlmaLaurea\u2019s website really intuitive, easy, and, from my personal experience, also very functional. Therefore my judgement can only be positive\u201d.\nit: Firenze, Parigi, Dubai: l\u2019architetto senza confini",

        "raw_content": "EIJI TSUBURAYA: MASTER OF MONSTERS REVIEW\nEIJI TSUBURAYA: MASTER OF MONSTERS BOOK REVIEW\nEiji Tsuburaya: Master of Monsters Defending the Earth with ULTRAMAN, GODZILLA and FRIENDS in the GOLDEN AGE OF JAPANESE SCIENCE FICTION FILM\nChronicle Books: San Francisco, 2007\nReviewed and recommended at 5 stars by Gordon\nEIJI TSUBURAYA: MASTER OF MONSTERS is a tribute book to the man who brought Godzilla, Ultraman, and many classic Japanese fantasy films and TV shows to life either directly or indirectly via his production company. While the many behind the scenes photos and stills of Godzilla and company were like eye candy to me and drew me to the book, it tracked his development from being an engineering student to being an aspiring filmmaker, from cameraman to founder of a very big marketable character empire.\nHis effects work is probably on a par with Willis O'Brien and Ray Harryhausen, despite the lower budgets necessitating larger-sized model cities and men in monster suits. However, he is very much considered to be as much of an inspiration as Harryhausen and O'Brien to modern filmmakers, including George Lucas.\nHe also worked a lot in non-monster and non-space films, to much acclaim. These included fantasy films based on Japanese legends, other types of science fiction, and historical dramas. During the Occupation of Japan, his highly regarded World War II films were believed to be real war film of such events as the bombing of Pearl Harbor and The Battle of Midway. Because the government hired him, he ran into trouble during the American Occupation after the War--just like all the actors, writers, directors, etc. who were blacklisted in the US during the McCarthy era! --and had to lay low for a while.\nInterestingly, he had served in the military as a young man, so both the service and his war-era propaganda filmmaking parallel that of Ray Harryhausen. The paths of Tsuburaya and Harryhausen crossed twice, indirectly. First, the inspiration for Godzilla came from Harryhausen's \"The Beast From 20,000 Fathoms,\" kicking everything off. Second, attempts by Willis O'Brien to get a King Kong sequel made eventually led to Toho's \"King Kong vs. Godzilla\" and \"King Kong Escapes.\" (Eiji had also been intensely inspired by O'Brien's work on the original King Kong--just as did Ray Harryhausen.)\nTsuburaya had worked with a number of people who also worked with Akira Kurosawa. Director Ishiro Honda met Martin Scorsese while working on Kurosawa's \"Dreams\" in 1990, and as he related in a 1991 interview, Scorsese (who played Vincent Van Gogh), Scorsese would go see Godzilla films wherever they were playing in New York.\nHe received much praise and several awards for his work, and films around the world became larger box office draws when his name was in the credits and on the movie poster.\nEven luminaries such George Lucas and Steven Spielberg were influenced by Tsuburaya. Lucas visited Toho to see if they could handle his special effects needs. Like Eiji, he eventually developed his own effects company. Spielberg paid tribute to Godzilla in his introduction to THE MAKING OF JURASSIC PARK.\nThis book serves as a good introduction to the man. It also introduces us to an era of Japanese filmmaking that is a golden era, as well as Japanese culture. It's a nice look at a people who have been all too often demonized because of the War though they are no different than you and I. Perhaps the book tends to cover up his shortcomings--he could have a temper, and many of the photos that he is in show him with a lit cigarette in his hand or he is actually smoking, and there was the questionable propaganda connections with the government during the war--but it is very definitely a tribute book.\nI heartily recommend this book. I learned a lot about Eiji and some of his most famous characters. Heck, I knew nothing--NOTHING--about Ultraman, except his name, until I read this book. Then there's Booska, a friendly cartoonish suit-monster (think Barney, as he was intended to be) who became as popular as Mickey Mouse in some circles. I had never met Booska until I studied this book.\nThis book is a worthy addition to the collections of Godzilla fans, but it is also worthwhile to borrow a library copy, as I did. Worldwide, 161 libraries have a copy of it.",

        "title": "Interview with Phil Collen and Vivian Campbell of Def Leppard",
        "raw_content": "Interview with Phil Collen and Vivian Campbell of Def Leppard\nDef Leppard, in many ways, was the definitive hard rock band of the '80s. There were many bands that rocked harder and were more dangerous than the Sheffield quintet, but few others captured the spirit of the times quite as well. During their recent Euphoria tour, the group made a mid winter trek up to Atlantic Canada, where I got to chat with guitarists' Phil Collen and Vivian Campbell.\nGB - How is the new material from Euphoria going over live?\nPC - Great!, When we do Promises cause it's the first one that went out, it goes down like anything we have done in the past as you will see tonight. That's one thing we have noticed about this record. It's the same kind of reaction with some of the songs we that had on our first headline tour. The pyromania tour.\nGB - You once said you were very proud of your last album Slang. Are you just as proud of this album?\nPC - Yes absolutely. We wouldn't release an album unless we thought it was great and that's sometimes why we take so long, as we don't want to release something if we're not happy with it.\nGB - Were you disappointed with the sales of Slang?\nPC - Ya, not great sales on that one. This one is up on that, so that's cool.\nGB - What made you change your sound for Slang and what made you return to your original sound?\nPC - Just the changing music. I think you always got to be aware of what's going on in music and right now there's a swing to more positive kind of songs. Just the acts and everything you see, Ricky Martin and Britney Spears and it's very up, where in the mid 90's it was very miserable. It's just a reflection of what's happening all the way around really.\nGB - How have you managed to survive the 80's fallout while a lot of other bands have not?\nPC - Because a lot of them bands were really crappy (laughs) and we had a lot more substance as we're still trying to prove. A lot of them bands, I don't really want to name anyone, but they were purely image based and there was no substance. There was nothing real there. It was just copying something else. What we did was always original and we always done our own thing and if there was an image on the way fine and dandy but that wasn't the primary target really. It was the songs and the music.\nGB - Vivian I once read where you have done some work outside the band?\nVC - I have little project bands. I live in LA and when I'm not working with Def Leppard we go out and we do a few club shows and stuff but no ones takes it very seriously.\nGB - Do you plan on working with producer Mutt Lang again?\nPC - If he can get time, he is very busy. We just managed four days out of him for this album and between doing a Backstreet Boys song and something else, he managed to come to Ireland where we recorded the album. We worked on three songs, actually two of them was kind of on the phone. It was like sending each other tapes and stuff. He's the best so if we can sure.\nGB - I heard rumors that Joe is going to record a duet with Mutt's wife Shania Twain?\nVC - Ya I heard that rumor too. I don't know where it came from.\nPC - Probably the internet or something or some other reliable source.(laughs)\nVC - I'm sure Joe would like to. I don't know how Shania would feel about that. (laughs)\nGB - Last summer you did a lot of outdoor festival shows. Any plans on that this year as well?\nVC - Sure thing ya. We're going to go back out in July, August, September and maybe into October doing a bunch of shed shows and some of the state fairs.\nGB - Any plans on releasing more b-sides, a box set or even a live album?\nPC - Maybe, we got a bunch of stuff. We got some material building up there. We may do a retroactive two or box set. We got enough live material for ten albums as well. I don't know whether we'll do that yet. No plans for it at the moment. Live albums are a bit weird because your missing the visual. Your just getting audio and it's so important if you don't see a show like this, that you see it as well as hear it. I think a lot gets lost when your just listing to a tape. You can't see the energy from that. You can hear it but your still missing a part of it.\nGB - The band has certainly seen a lot of tragedy such as Rick's car accident and the loss of Steve Clark. What gives you the strength to go on?\nPC - You know when someone dies in a family you don't go, oh that's it, I'm gonna quit, You just carry on and that's what we do. You take any person in here and in a fifteen or twenty year period, your gonna have tragedy. It's just part of life, so we don't really look at it as like a curse or something. It just happens.\nGB - I understand someone broke into the tour bus in BC?\nPC - Someone stole my bag ya. They got on the bus and took my computer, my drum machine, camera, everything. That was a drag.\nGB - I hear Rick is about to become a father is that so?\nPC- Rick Savage is about to be a father for the first time ya. Rick Allen already has a three year old. We're all becoming parents. (laughs) I got a 10 year old and Vin's got a eight month old. Only Joe, who hasn't got a kid yet.\nGB - What's coming up in the future for the band?\nVC - More of the same. After the summer jaunt we'll go back in to doing another record. That'll take a year a least. We'll just keep going as long as there's an integrity and some quality to the work. I think people will respond to it through the years.\nInterview conducted February 10th, 2000\nClick here to see my friend Jody's meeting with drummer Rick Allen\nClick here to go to the official Def Leppard Web Site",

She made an immediate impact in her prep career as a first team All-BVAL selection at shortstop as a sophmore. Wong repeated her first team All-BVAL selection as a junior and added a 1st Team All-Area selection that season. She was also named one of the Top 50 Female Athletes by the Contra Costa Times that year along with two other Antiochans and fellow 2018 Sports Legends Inductees, Jennifer Abernathy and Janie Nolan. Jackie culminated her high school play with a third All-BVAL selection and was named team MVP. She received a scholarship to play softball at the University of Utah. While at Utah, Jackie started all four years at second base. She led the Lady Utes with 13 stolen bases her freshman year and was named to the All- Academic Mountain West Conference (MWC) team. Jackie followed up with a very consistent sophomore campaign leading her team to the MWC title game. She was named to the all MWC Tournament team. Wong\ufffds junior season was another example of great consistency as she started every game and led her team in runs scored and plate appearances. These first three years were just a prelude to what would happen in her senior year at Utah. Jackie put up some amazing statistics in 2006 batting .439 with four home runs, 31 RBI, 51 runs scored and a spectacular .996 fielding percentage. She led the MWC in batting, runs scored and hits while being named to the conference\ufffds first team and the all-tournament team. She was further recognized as first team All-West Region, second team All-American by the Louisville Slugger and first team All-American by Easton Bell. She set school records in several categories and as of the 2018 season Jackie ranks fourth best in career batting average in school history. Upon graduation Jackie was drafted by the Rockford Thunder of Major League Softball. She played one year for the Thunder where she batted .342 and she was selected to and started the All-Pro All-Star game.",

        "raw_content": "Italy-based Sogefi Group Plans $20 Million Expansion At Its Prichard, West Virginia, Auto Parts Manufacturing Plant\nItaly-based Sogefi Group will add at least 250 new jobs in a $20 million expansion of its auto parts plant in Prichard, West Virginia.\nSogefi's Wayne County plant, which opened in 2004, manufactures parts for automobile engines, including fuel pumps, fuel filters, and oil filters. Parts from the company's West Virginia plant are used by global automotive giants including Toyota, Ford, Fiat, Chrysler, BMW, Nissan, Mazda, Hyundai, and Kia. The plant produces more than 5 million pumps and filters every year.\nPlant modifications, which include repurposing the plant's existing space of 215,000 square feet of production, warehouse and office area, are scheduled to begin in January 2014 and finish by May. New equipment is set to arrive beginning in May and through August 2014. Financing for some of the equipment has already been approved by the West Virginia Economic Development Authority.\nThe auto parts manufacturer will add engine intake manifolds to its Prichard product line that includes integrated fluid filtration products. The Prichard plant will manufacture intake manifolds for General Motors, adding yet another major auto producer to the plant's customer list.\n\"The plant that we opened in West Virginia in 2004 was the first entry of Sogefi S.p.A into North America,\" said CEO Guglielmo Fiocchi. \"Our company has had great success in West Virginia, and we consider the partnership with the state and local government officials to be important factors.\"\nHiring for skilled positions including; engineers, quality staff, supervisors and maintenance technicians will start in January 2014. Production positions will be added gradually from around April through August.\n\"West Virginia offers tremendous value for businesses who need a top-notch workforce and a winning business climate,\" Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin said. \"Sogefi's expansion underscores the competitive edge that's attracting more and more businesses to our state.\"\n\"I've said time and again, I will go anywhere to bring more good-paying jobs to West Virginia,\" Gov. Tomblin continued. \"When I met with Mr. Fiocchi last month in France, he praised West Virginia's hardworking people and his company's experience in the state. Sogefi's decision to grow its Wayne County operation is a vote of confidence in all the things we've done to make West Virginia a great place to do business.\"\n\"I am pleased about the great news for Wayne County and the entire region. Sogefi is growing and that means our economy is improving,\" said Gary Walton, president of the Huntington Area Development Council. \"When HADCO built the spec building that grew into Allevard Sogefi USA, Inc., this was exactly what our board of directors envisioned: more employment and more private investment. This development would not have happened without tremendous cooperation among federal, state and local government.\"\nThe West Virginia Development Office, HADCO and the Wayne County Economic Development Authority collaborated on the expansion project.",

        "raw_content": "Insider Edition for subscriber\nSustainability as a Strategy;\nGlobal Shift Towards Social Responsibility\nIt's hard to imagine a time when there wasn\u2019t enthusiasm for innovation as a core concept. Only recently have we recognized the magnitude of adaptation to our external environments. Historically, leaders have focused their attention on diversification as a means for achieving success. Most great ideas were a result of intuition from personal experiences and were implemented because of biases towards profit maximization by any means necessary. As we evolved into a global marketplace, innovation became critical to organizational survival and maintenance of economic strength. Innovation quite literally changes the world. It is now widely accepted that systemic change is essential to ensuring conservation of resources and protection of the planet. The way society has historically operated does not support sustainability. In the future, organizational agility is critical as we are forced to evolve. Everyone, including the largest of organizations, is in the midst of a fundamental shift towards the sustainable fulfillment of social and environmental responsibility.\nA massive global shift in the value placed on sustainability is important for reducing the impact on our planet and preserving resources for future generations. Companies must now ingrain sustainability into their cultures as a core value and use innovation to derive strategies that promote both success and social responsibility. Cultural changes are extremely challenging on any scale due to inherent fear of change. Businesses are challenged to invest in innovation and develop sustainable operations without sacrificing long-term profit margins.\nThe current consumer places significant value on sustainability and is loyal to brands who share similar ethical beliefs. Technological advancements and the development of social media have created an avenue for shared information. When instances of unethical behavior are discovered, the information is virally spread across the globe. Due to the powerful voices of consumers, businesses are tasked with protecting their reputations through increased focus on the environment. Consumers are passionate about brands that show a commitment to social and environmental responsibility. The impact is corporations branding themselves through sustainability. Strategic decisions now include goals focused on the reduction of carbon footprint in an attempt to form an emotional connection with individuals. Brands are finally eyeing the long-term future over short-term gains and understanding the strategic benefits of sustainable operational procedures. Cultures within these organizations are centered on ethical practices and becoming good stewards of the environment. Consumer values have motivated companies to develop revolutionary ideas and created a global focus on sustainable practices. Ironically, innovative technology is what provided the consumer with a powerful voice. It would be foolish to ignore the large segment that places environmental practices above price in purchasing decisions. Successful companies are great at customer segmentation and have intelligently allocated the necessary resources to align with consumer values.\nThere is a good analogy for what lies ahead. \u201cIf the mountain was smooth, it would be harder to climb.\u201d If additional consumers place value on green initiatives, companies will be forced to align their standards to maintain brand loyalty. One thing we can guarantee is that successful companies allocate resources to align their internal environment with external factors. Continue promoting the change because as you can see, it\u2019s having an impact. Support the companies who are motivated to improve the environment and others will follow. Perfect competition always leads to imitation.\nAs a subscriber you are always encouraged to share feedback.

        "raw_content": "We have just received the latest test results on the quality of the lake water for swimming. In addition to testing the drinking water every two weeks (which we must do by law) we also test the lake water occasionally. (which we are not required to do) We use SGS Canada Inc., an independent laboratory, to do all our water testing.\nBacteria level is measured in colony-forming units (cfu) per 100 mL. The E.Coli limit at which a swimming ban/notice is posted varies by jurisdiction. In Ontario, it is 100 cfu. In Alberta, B.C., & Quebec, it is 200 cfu. In our latest test, the E.Coli in the lake at Bare Oaks was 005 which is clearly well below any limits. We also test for Coliform and that result was 018 which is also well below the limit. The samples were taken on July 23rd which is after more than a month of full-capacity weekends, a lack of rainfall, an unusually low water level, and a water temperature above average \u2013 all factors which should aggravate the bacteria levels.\nWhile we test the lake water a few times per year, we don't usually report it because it has always been below the limits and, as you can see above, the explanation is quite technical.\nWe are reporting it this time because we received an anonymous communication a couple of weeks ago, from a concerned member, with a test result that showed E.Coli in the lake. The key is that the test was for drinking water. It didn't measure the level of bacteria. It simply indicated its existence. The presence of E.Coli in a natural pond or lake is perfectly normal and part of a natural ecosystem. Based on the limits set by the government, it is perfectly safe for swimming. But we certainly advise against drinking it!\nIf anyone wants to see the original laboratory test result, please contact the office and we'll be happy to email you a copy.\nLabels: swimming, water",

        "raw_content": "The Vagina Monologues - Saturday\nDue to popular demand, the original cast of the August 9th show during the Naturist Festival has agreed to a repeat performance of The Vagina Monologues this Saturday at 8pm in the Outback at Bare Oaks Family Naturist Park. The cast consists of 6 women aged 17 to 55. They have put a lot of work into this show (planning and rehearsals started in April) and it shows in the result. Their performance is powerful.\nDuring the festival, seating was setup for 70 people. About 80 people attended and many were turned away. To ensure you have a seat, please contact the office and reserve.\nAdmission is by way of a cash donation to the York Region Abuse Program. (non-members must also pay a day fee to attend)\nCAUTION: This performance contains graphic language and mature content. Attend at your discretion.\nAbout The Vagina Monologues from the publisher, Random House:\nA poignant and hilarious tour of the last frontier, the ultimate forbidden zone, The Vagina Monologues is a celebration of female sexuality in all its complexity and mystery. In this stunning phenomenon that has swept the nation, Eve Ensler gives us real women's stories of intimacy, vulnerability, and sexual self-discovery.\nCelebrated as the bible for a new generation of women, The Vagina Monologues has been performed in cities all across America and at hundreds of college campuses. It has inspired a dynamic grassroots movement--V-Day--to stop violence against women. Witty and irreverent, compassionate and wise, Eve Ensler's Obie Award-winning masterpiece gives voice to women's deepest fantasies and fears, guaranteeing that no one who reads it will ever look at a woman's body, or think of sex, in quite the same way again.\nBased on interviews with over 200 women about their memories and experiences of sexuality, The Vagina Monologues gives voice to women's deepest fantasies and fears, guaranteeing that no one who reads it will ever look at a woman's body, or think of sex, in quite the same way again. It is witty and irreverent, compassionate and wise. \"At first women were reluctant to talk,\" Ensler writes. \"They were a little shy. But once they got going, you couldn't stop them.\"\nAlso included in this special edition are testimonials--both joyous and heartbreaking--from young women who have performed The Vagina Monologues at their colleges for V-Day, February 14, to raise money for organizations fighting to protect women.\n\"I am not sure why I was chosen,\" Eve Ensler writes in her introduction to The Vagina Monologues. \"I didn't for example, have girlhood fantasies about becoming \"vagina lady\" (which I am often called, sometimes loudly across a crowded shoe store.) I could not have imagined that I would one day be talking about vaginas on talk shows in places like Athens, Greece, chanting the word vagina with four thousand women in Baltimore, or having thirty-two public orgasms a night. These things were not in my plans. In this sense, I don't think I had much to do with The Vagina Monologues. It possessed me.\"\nLabels: art, performance, theatre, women\nWake Boarding @railyardwakepk\nBare Oaks in Google Streetview",

First off, it is never recommended to stay out of work for a long time. But while it lasts, best to take advantage of the benefits it brings.\n\u2022 Relaxation. Minus work related pressure and stress. You get to relax more often. Read many books. Movie marathon. Write, write, and write. A vacation is even more likely possible.\n\u2022 Time. There is more time which can be allotted for anything you want to do (such as that which pertains to the first bullet). There is an opportunity to finish everything which you cannot seem to do while busy at work.\nCoincidentally, cleaning and getting rid of unnecessary clutter at home is something commonly done while out of work.\n\u2022 Bond with everyone. It is related to the first and second bullets. There is more time to bond with everyone: family, relatives, and friends. You can even relax together in vacations.\n\u2022 Meditation. This is a great opportunity to ponder upon life, experiences, lessons learned, or simply find one\u2019s self. It is no coincidence that those who needs self searching get away from work for a moment.\nThese are only but a few. There are many other benefits from being out of work and there's so much more to answer the question above. As for the disadvantages, I\u2019m sure there may even be more than this list. Most of them become the exact opposite of the benefits discussed here.\n\u2022 Relaxation may end up making you too relaxed to prefer the lazy life over working.\n\u2022 Time is then wasted doing nothing.\n\u2022 Everyone gets tired seeing you all the time.\n\u2022 There is nothing else left to meditate upon.\nSo enjoy the moment while it lasts. Make the most out of it while you can. Soon enough, you will realize the need for work and the benefits thereof.\nOn a personal note, I enjoy every moment of not working yet I despise how I have nothing to do most of the time. So how about you, any recommendations on what to do when you're out of work?",

        "raw_content": "Thinking that Bumper\u2019s Landing is a \u201cboat bar\u201d just doesn\u2019t make sense any more. There are too many facets to it. True, some people show up only in the summer when the weather is hot and sticky. They sit by the water and feel cooler just by being there.\nSome people come for the food. (When your tummy nudges you and tells you that it needs pub food, you really have no choice but to obey.)\nThere are the drinks. Yes, the drinks. Served good and cold, and refreshing and so plenty. Yes, the drinks! Some come to Bumper\u2019s for that.\nThere are those that even venture out for the music. On the weekend, the line-up is outstanding and vibrant. Part of the setting besides the water and sun and booze and music, is the total vibe. Bumper\u2019s owns it!\nWith all that being said, why would you stop by in late March to a bar that brags about the sun?\nThe big game.\nWhether it\u2019s baseball, football or hockey, the big gamer is always on. People like it, and they like people. In fact, they do everything they can do to make them happy.\nOn this particular Saturday night, the big game was of course, basketball. The university of Michigan was on and vying for a ticket to the national championship game. Our job was to amp up the excitement level, and entertain the folks during breaks.\nWe began hot right out of the gate, since the bar was full and getting ready to burst. Since there was nothing to hold back on this evening, we didn\u2019t even try to ease into anything. We take our cue from the people, and the people were ready to party.\nWhen a big game is on, everyone\u2019s attention is riveted to the screens. They live and die with every shot, goal or basket. To try and play music is just too distracting for the patrons, and does not really add anything.\nOn this night, the game was back and forth, with many great plays keeping everyone on the edge of their seats. The boys from Michigan were in it, and people were very optimistic for the second have. As soon as halftime arrived, Carl and I began anew, launching some of our best up-tempo classics their way. Most people were still too wrapped up in the game\u2019s outcome to truly let themselves go, just yet.\nAs the second half began to unfold, it seemed more clear that this night was going to be very enjoyable. The baskets were dropping and the cheering became a never-ending exclamation point on a night destined for a big, party.\nThe crowd counted down the win, as the final buzzer sent the boys from Ann Arbor to the national title game. It was a perfect night for everyone.\nNow Carl and I could relax, let loose and lead the happy crowd in song.\nOn a night that was more about sports than music, we we\u2019re happy to let the people be the show. It happens more nights than you might know. After all, we are there for the people, Our job is to entertain them. To let them find their \u201chappy place\u201d, right here for a few hours.\nIt was another great crowd. Most of them nearly exhausted because of so much adrenaline being spent. The relief, the elation and the worries, all washing over the patrons as the night few to it\u2019s conclusion.\nAnother fun time at Bumper\u2019s for us all. Just another way to enjoy the spring, the fellowship and the fun that is this amazing venue.",

I spent the beginning of the week running around Disney (surprise, surprise) and then the remainder of the week gearing up for my trip to Chicago next week. Which, by the way, I will be in Chicago for A Night For Green Beauty!! I will be going with BeauTeaBar and I could not be more excited. I've never been to Chicago before, so I'm extra stoked. Any tips on things to do or see while I'm there? I'll be there for barely 48 hours so I don't even know how much I'll be able to accomplish. Ah, well.\nThis week because I've been so busy, I was only to manage one post- a review on Paula's Choice! Make sure you go check that out. This line of skincare is amazing and is so great if you're on a budget. Great for college students, too! Here are some of the other things I've been reading around the web:\nUm, how cool is this: my dear, dear friends Beulah and Alex are featured on Design Sponge!! I was so excited to see them on there. Go show them some love!\nThis watermelon salad looks like the BOMB.\nInto the Gloss interviewed one of my favorite makeup artists, Lottie. If you're a makeup junkie like me, you'll love this interview!\nI wish I thought of this hair conditioner hack for braids before!\nI've been on a Whitney Houston kick lately. Perhaps it's because her daughter has been all over the news lately (RIP Bobbi Kristina), but I've always been a huge Whitney fan. Fact: when I was in elementary school, I had her greatest hits album and I would play it on repeat all day, every day. To this day, it's still one of my favorite albums. What can I say, I'm an old soul! Haaa. I was a weird kid. Only listened to 80s music and disco. Anyway, Whitney is one of my all-time favorite singers, and for some reason, \"I Have Nothing\" has been stuck in my head. So now it shall be stuck in yours! Enjoy.",

        "raw_content": "Baa Atoll - a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve\nLife, economic prosperity and social development in Maldives depend upon maintaining our atoll ecosystems in a healthy natural state. Our reefs, islands and surrounding seas and their component biodiversity are the natural assets on which the tourism and fishing industries depend, which provide us with land for development and materials for building, and which protect us from storms. More than almost any other country in the world, our future is inextricably linked to the quality of our environment.\nThere is widespread recognition that conventional approaches have not been effective in conserving our natural environment and biodiversity. We are losing charismatic species like sharks, several fisheries are in decline, the land and seas are increasingly polluted, and we are threatened with coastal erosion, storms and sea-level rise. There is an urgent need to plan and manage the country\u2019s natural resources in a more integrated and conservation-oriented manner that is appropriate to the country\u2019s unique geography and ecology, socio-economic development and patterns of resource use. Only by achieving this will future generations have the same rich natural resource base to support them that has sustained our development to date.\nRecognising this challenge, the Government of Maldives established the Atoll Ecosystem Conservation Project (AEC Project) in 2004 (with support of United Nations Development Program (UNDP) and the Global Environment Facility (GEF) with the purpose of designing and demonstrating an effective management system for atoll ecosystem conservation and sustainable development on Baa Atoll, which could then be replicated throughout Maldives.\nThe project\u2019s vision is to make Baa Atoll: a world class model of atoll ecosystem conservation where sustainable use supports a prosperous economy and good quality of life for all, for ever \u2013 for replication across the Maldives.\nBaa Atoll was selected as the demonstration atoll for this project on account of its globally significant biodiversity, the commitment and capacity of local communities, the potential to address threats to biodiversity and demonstrate sustainable use.\nBy working with the communities of Baa Atoll, the private sector and the all the other relevant stakeholders the AEC Project together with the Ministry of Environment has been able to achieve the objectives for which the project was designed for during the course of the project\u2019s lifetime.\nWork on declaring Baa Atoll as a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve started in early 2009, a series of workshops and meetings were held right across the atoll which involved the participation of all relevant stakeholders.\nDiscussions were also held at national level as well, which included the environment, tourism and the fisheries ministers meeting to discuss the issue of declaring Baa Atoll as a Unesco Biosphere Reserve. With the workshops and meetings completed and the conclusions of these pointing towards Baa Atoll to be declared as a Unesco Biosphere Reserve one final round of community consultation was undertaken in the same year. The outcome of the community consultations indicated that over 95% of the Baa Atoll community was in favour of declaring Baa Atollas a Unesco Biosphere Reserve.\nHence Baa Atoll was nominated by the Government of Maldives to be declared as a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve on 28 September 2010 and UNESCO\u2019s declaration of Baa Atoll as a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve came on 28 June 2011.\nThe Government of Maldives on 13 June 2012 established and opened the Baa Atoll Unesco Biosphere Reserve Office under the Ministry of Environment and Energy in the capital of Baa Atoll, Eydhafushi. The Biosphere Reserve Office will be responsible for leading and coordinating implementation of the Biosphere Reserve Strategy which comprises three programmes: Conservation Programme, Learning and Research Programme; Livelihoods and Sustainable Development Programme.\nFull Zonation Map\n[click to view the full zonation map]\nZonation System\nTransitional Areas",

        "title": "Lowest Common Denominators - Bubbly Primes",
        "raw_content": "In math, LCD stands for either the Lowest Common Denominator, or Least Common Denominator. They both mean the same thing. Before getting too deep into Lowest Common Denominators, let\u2019s review fractions, and some of the words and ideas that we\u2019ll use.\nA fraction is a tool (OK \u2014 a number) that helps you solve problems involving pieces of units. In a given fraction, those pieces are all the same size. The two numbers that compose a fraction show two things: the number of pieces that each unit is broken into, and the number of those pieces present. It\u2019s OK for there to be more pieces present than the number of pieces each unit is broken into; all that means is that the fraction represents a portion bigger than a single unit\u2019s worth.\nWhat is a Denominator?\nThe denominator is the number of pieces that a unit is broken into in a fraction. We write it on the bottom part of the fraction.\nWhat is a Numerator?\nThe numerator is the number of pieces present in a fraction. We write it on the top part of the fraction.\nEquivalent fractions are fractions that are written with different numbers, but that represent the same actual value. How can that be? For example, if you divide a unit into two pieces, and keep both pieces, you\u2019ve still got a unit worth. 1 = 2/2. You could also divide it into 3 pieces and keep all three: 1 = 2/2 = 3/3. They are equivalent fractions. Another example: one half is the same as two quarters. You can do this with any fraction. If you multiply (or divide) both the numerator and the denominator by the same number you get an equivalent fraction. (No \u2014 you can\u2019t use zero.) It\u2019s an incredibly useful trick.\nUsing equivalent forms makes it possible to add, subtract, and compare fractions that would otherwise be incompatible. But, they can also cause us to do arithmetic with numbers that are bigger than necessary. To avoid problems caused by equivalent fractions, we simplify them.\nWhy would you want the LCD of a Fraction?\nThat\u2019s a trick question! Actually, we don\u2019t look for the lowest common denominator of a fraction, we look for it between two or more fractions. Most of the time, we find the LCD of just two fractions. The word \u201ccommon\u201d, in this case, means that we are trying to find a single number that can serve as the denominator for two different fractions. (The numerators are usually going to be different.)\nWhen fractions have different denominators, we can\u2019t always work with them. Things that we can\u2019t do include adding them, subtracting them, and even comparing them. Finding a Common Denominator makes it possible to do those things. Finding the Lowest Common Denominator is even better, because it lets us do those things with the least work we can get away with.\nWhat is the Lowest Common Denominator?\nFractions have two parts \u2014 the numerator and the denominator. In fractions, units are always broken into pieces the same size. The denominator tells what that size is. If you try to add, subtract, or compare fractions with the same size pieces, all you do is add, subtract, or compare the pieces. Easy! Just add, subtract, or compare the numerators, and don\u2019t change the denominator.\nBut, if you\u2019ve got fractions with different size pieces what can you do? Break the pieces into even smaller pieces! Using a bit of cleverness, you can choose the right size for the little pieces so they\u2019re the same for both fractions.\nThe denominator is the size of the pieces; since we want to change the size of the pieces, that\u2019s our main focus. Common means it\u2019s the same between two fractions. Our goal is to convert both fractions into equivalent fractions that have the same denominators. When we find a denominator that is common between the two fractions we will be able to do different things with them (generally we want to add, subtract, or compare them).\nLowest or Least means that we don\u2019t overdo it by breaking our units into pieces which are smaller than necessary.\nHow do you find a Common Denominator?\nThere is a really obvious and easy way to find a common denominator for two fractions. Unfortunately, it will generally not be the least common denominator.\nMultiply the two denominators. The result will be a common denominator (but usually not the lowest one).\nConvert the first fraction into an equivalent fraction with the common denominator, by multiplying both the top and bottom by the denominator of the second fraction.\nConvert the second fraction into an equivalent fraction with the common denominator, by multiplying both the top and bottom by the denominator of the first fraction.\nThis technique is simple and always works, but it has its weaknesses. For many fractions, it uses larger numbers than necessary, which means spending too much time and work doing arithmetic with big numbers. The chance of making \u201ccareless\u201d mistakes goes up when working with big numbers too. To make life easier, it is worth using the Lowest Common Denominator.\nHow do you find the Lowest Common Denominator?\nThe trick is that the LCD has to have all the prime factors of each denominator, with no other extraneous factors. You can find the LCD of two fractions by following these steps:\nFind the prime factorization of both denominators. Doing this requires being able to \u201csee\u201d what the factors are of the numbers. We noticed that students sometimes get lost in this step, so we developed an educational game to help. The game is a fun way to become proficient at factoring.\nThe LCD will be found via its factors. Start by copying all the prime factors of one of the denominators.\nNow copy prime factors of the other denominator into the LCD, but (here\u2019s the important part) you don\u2019t need to copy any that are already there. This takes a little explaining for prime numbers with multiple copies in one or both of the denominators. If there are multiple copies of some prime number in one of the denominators, that many copies have to be put in the LCD. But if the other denominator only has that many or less, additional copies don\u2019t need to be added on its behalf. So, for instance, if the first denominator has three 2s and the second denominator has four 2s, the LCD needs four 2s.\nMultiply together all the prime factors found in the previous step. The product in the LCD.\nA Time Saving Shortcut for Using The LCD\nOnce you find the LCD, most likely, you\u2019ll convert both of your starting fractions into equivalent fractions with the LCD in the denominators. There\u2019s an excellent timesaving shortcut you can use if you like. You already know the prime factorizations of both denominators, and of the LCD. For the first fraction, collect the prime factors in the LCD that came purely from the second fraction, and multiply top and bottom of the first fraction by those. For the second fraction multiply top and bottom by prime factors of the LCD that came purely from the first fraction.\nHow do you find the LCD of three or more Fractions?\nThe process is similar to that for the LCD of two fractions. The LCD has to have as many copies of each prime factor as any of the denominators does.\nFind the prime factorization of all the denominators.\nStart finding the LCD\u2019s prime factors by writing all the prime factors of one of the denominators.\nAdd additional prime factors to the LCD from one of the remaining denominators. Do this by looking for prime factors that aren\u2019t in the LCD yet, or prime factors that are there, but have less copies than the denominator in question.\nRepeat step 3 with each of the remaining denominators.\nMultiply together all the prime factors of the LCD to represent it as a number.\nIf you want to use the shortcut for converting your starting fractions into equivalent forms with the LCD, you can do it the same way as for two fractions. However, for each starting fraction, collect all the LCD prime factors that were not in that starting fraction\u2019s original denominator.\nRemembering how to find LCDs\nIt can feel like finding LCDs is a bunch of nit-picky steps that are hard to remember. One of the best tricks for remembering things is to find a way to visualize them. Here\u2019s a suggestion for visualizing Lowest Common Denominators, and how to find them:\nStart by reading about the Fundamental Theorem of Arithmetic, and focusing on the idea of prime numbers as building blocks. Once that\u2019s clear in your mind, think of the LCD as a kit that has only enough parts (prime number building blocks) to build either one of the denominators at a time, but not necessarily enough to make them both at the same time. Visualize those numbers as actual building blocks, like the blocks young children play with.\nThe first common denominator (which wasn\u2019t a lowest common denominator) that we made, by just multiplying both denominators, was like making a kit with enough pieces (building blocks) to build both denominators at the same time. That\u2019s nice, and easy to do, because you just throw in all the pieces required to make both numbers. But, it\u2019s also more expensive than necessary, because the person using the kit only needs to make one or the other denominator at a time. The trick is to make the kit smaller by removing duplicate parts but making sure that all the non-duplicate parts are there.\nIs there anything you can do with Fractions, without finding the LCD?\nIt can start to feel like we need to find Lowest Common Denominators for everything we do with fractions. However, there\u2019s actually plenty of things that we can do without it.\nThe big ones are multiplications and division.\nMultiplying by a fraction means breaking a number into pieces the size of the fraction, even if your original number is a fraction itself. Dividing by a fraction means divvying up the quotient into a number of portions, or portions of a certain size. You don\u2019t need the LCD for either of those things.\nYou can also factor out part of a fraction from a sum or difference of fractions using the \u201cdistributive property\u201d without figuring out the LCD. However, when you do that, you are usually looking at what the factors of multiple denominators are, so even though this isn\u2019t finding the LCD, it\u2019s related because you\u2019ll be interested in prime factorization.\nNext Topic: Greatest Common Factors",

It is located across the lake from Altdorf and it has a thriving tourism industry. It's close proximity to many of the major sights in the country make it a great base for exploration. Many people use it as a jumping off point for exploring Mount Rigi and the Rutli Meadow.\nThe city itself is quite charming and a pleasure to explore on its own. It has a population of just over 80,000, making it the most populous city in Central Switzerland. It is also a hub for transportation and government in the region.\nDuring the coldest winter months, the average lows in the city fall just below freezing and daytime highs are around about 4 degrees Celsius. During the warmer summer months, averages highs are around 24 degrees Celsius. Snow generally falls between the months of November and March, with occasional dustings during April and October.\nAlthough many people use Lucerne as a base to explore Central Switzerland, the city itself has a lot to offer travelers. The Chapel Bridge is the landmark of the city. It's the oldest woodbridge in all of Europe and dates back to the 14th century. Unfortunately the original bridge burned in 1993 but was very quickly rebuilt. The old city wall is also interesting to see. It has several towers including the clock tower that chimes one minute before the hour so that it has the first strike in town.\nOther interesting sights around town include Alpineum, the Glacier Garden, Bourbaki Panormama, the KKL, and the Lion Monument. Interesting museums include the Swiss Transport Museum, the Lucerne Art Museum, the Rosengart Collection, and the Richard Wagner Museum.\nLucerne is a small city and most visitors spend the majority of their time in the Old Town. The city is located on the shore of Lake Lucerne and has views of Mount Pilatus and Rigi in the Swiss Alps. Because of it's proximity to many outdoor destinations, the city makes a popular base for exploring the area.\nPopular activities in the area include climbing Mount Pilatus, the top of which can be reached by either hiking or taking the cable car. If you choose to hike you can expect the ascent to take about four hours. Some people also decide to take a boat tour that will give you a ride between Lucerne and Alpnachstad.\nThere are a handful of other mountains you can visit that are near Lucerne. Many can be visited as day trips and will offer you a great overview of the beautiful surrounding countryside. Some of the popular mountains include Mount Rigi and Mount Titlis.\nLucerne also has a popular Carnival festival that is quite impressive if you're in the area.\nFood can be expensive in Lucerne, like it is elsewhere in Switzerland. There are a couple of budget options near the train station. Alternatively, you can pick up some food at the market and make a meal out of bread, cheese, meats, and some fruit. Migros and Coop are both huge supermarket chains that are generally affordable. You'll find small Migros and a larger Coop at the train station where you can grab something to eat as you arrive or leave the city. The chains are also present elsewhere around town and make a convenient place to grab some cheap food. If you don't want to prepare your own meal, then there are some delicious, although expensive restaurants around town.\nIt's easy to walk around and reach most places on foot, so a car is definitely not necessary. The Old Town area is quite small, and all of the other, more distant attractions are still within a half hour's walk. Not only is it easy to walk around Lucerne, but it's also very enjoyable and highly recommended.\nIf you decide to take public transit, then there is an extensive city bus system. Further out attractions such as the Lido Beach and the Swiss Transport Museum can be reached by bus. There are also several boats an hour that can be caught in front of the central railway station. Also near the central railway station are bicycle rental facilities. There are bike lanes on most secondary streets and most drivers around town are comfortable with bicyclists.\nIf you're using Lucerne as a base to explore Central Switzerland, then you will make good use of the Swiss Federal Railway, the Schifffahrt Vierwaldstattersee, or the private transit companies that travel around the country. There are frequent connections and it is relatively easy to get around the area.\nLucerne's Carnival\nRight before lent every year, Lucerne is one of several cities in Switzerland that celebrates a carnival. Lucerne's festival is most famous for its \"march any direction you like\" street parades, which can be as chaotic as the name implies. Carnival goers where elaborate masks and there is plenty of food, music, and entertainment. It's a particularly interesting time to be in Lucerne.\nLucerne's carnival week begins on Fat Tuesday and ends on Ash Wednesday. It begins on Fat Tuesday with Urknall (a loud bang) at 5am to officially kick off the festivities. If you'd like to blend in, where plenty of colorful clothes and pull out a mask.",

        "raw_content": "New build homes: quality vs. quantity\nHeadlines are making for sobering first-time buyer reading once more. In February 2017, house prices in the UK reached an average of \u00a3217,000 \u2013 the equivalent of 7.7 times the national average salary.\nMore worryingly for first-time buyers, their average first home will cost \u00a3195,000 \u2013 a staggering 6.5% more than last year.\nThen there\u2019s the nature of the homes themselves. The Government has pledged, in the face of the national \u2018housing crisis\u2019, that 250,000 new homes should be built per year. Last year, \u2018only\u2019 140,650 new homes were built. Yet the development pace means these new homes may be of poor quality, and not meeting the national need.\nKeeping pace with government targets\nFirst time buyers, now the Millennial generation, are facing an exceedingly tough time getting on the property ladder. There\u2019s a shortage of properties, meaning keeping prices low is tough. Therefore there is immense pressure on the construction industry to build new homes to help meet Government targets. These targets are being massively under-met. However, there\u2019s more to it than that. The houses that are being built aren\u2019t up to scratch.\nNot only are first-time buyers stretching themselves beyond that which previous generations would have recoiled in horror at, they aren\u2019t necessarily getting their dream home in to the bargain. The speed at which development is happening would appear to be letting problems through the net. Paula Higgins, Chief Executive of the Homeowner\u2019s Alliance has stated: \u201cIn the rush to build new homes there is concern that standards are slipping\u201d. In fact, the Homeowner\u2019s Alliance reports that 38% of buyers turn down new builds because of the poor quality.\nThis isn\u2019t just a case of bad luck. It\u2019s a widespread problem. The Consumer Code for Home Builders was brought in 7 years ago after government-led investigations reported that a vast 70% of new homes weren\u2019t up to standard, and buyers were left without legal redress. However, the Code is only voluntary. It doesn\u2019t actually bring the homeowner of substandard-build-quality housing, any concrete support.\nHowever, there may be some hope on the horizon coming. The Department for Communities and Local Government (DCLG) is taking steps to create a New Homes Ombudsman. They will be able to provide dispute mediation between homeowners and the builders, as well as warranty providers. This signals an important step for owners of new build properties getting redress for the problems they face. There are also some indications that house prices may fall.\nWhat are the problems with new builds?\nThe problems can really be anything that comes from rushing, or poor workmanship. Every tale is different, but it may be poor ventilation, lack of cavity wall insulation, rot, or poor build quality. Furthermore there may be problems beyond the structure of the building alone. In a bid to keep costs low, some builders may opt for lower quality options for fittings such as kitchens, appliances, and boilers, or cut corners on their installation.\nThe crux of the matter comes when you realise that the NHBC warranty you get with a new home, doesn\u2019t cover these \u2018non-structural\u2019 issues after 2 years. So although your warranty is for 10 years, if you don\u2019t notice, and get redress of the non-structural issues immediately, you may end up liable for covering the costs of repair.\nThese problems are often not cheap to fix either, with price tags beyond that which the average first-time buyer can come up with quickly. For example, in the case of a new boiler, it can cost as much as \u00a33000. This is why it is important to check prices, and ensure you are getting a fair deal on a new boiler that should also hopefully save you money on bills in the long run.\nHowever, this doesn\u2019t change the fact that many new builds simply aren\u2019t up to scratch and it\u2019s still the homeowners footing the bill to bring them up to standard.\nLetting down the next generation\nWe\u2019re not doing our next generation any favours here. In fact, we lag behind the rest of the world in many regards. 70% of Chinese 19-36 year olds are on the property ladder, 46% in Mexico, 41% in France, and a lagging 31% in the UK.\nProperty ownership, a near-given for their parents and grandparents, seems an unrealistic dream for many Millennials. Then even those who do make it on to the ladder, tempted by the concept of a new build, because it won\u2019t bring the traditional maintenance headaches and costs of an older property, discover they were wrong.\nWe need to do more to address the housing crisis. We need to do more to ensure the homes that are being built aren\u2019t below par, but will stand the test of time, not just for the next generation, but beyond.",

This site is their first hybrid operation, changing from a coffee house during the day to a bar serving a selection of wines, beers and meals during the evening. The new site, which will create 11 new full time jobs, marks the latest stage of the company\u2019s UK expansion plans.\nInitially launched as a coffee cart in 2013, Grindsmith received a BFS Start Up Loan to invest in a permanent setting, based in a small unique eco-pod on Greengate Square, Manchester. They then opened their second unit on Deansgate, located within Rise Manchester and the third premises is situated on the main route from the car park to the BBC building within the MediaCityUK complex.\nGrindsmith is run by Directors Luke Tomlinson and Peter Gibson and now employs 25 people. Peter said: \u201cBusiness Finance Solutions has played a key role in the evolution and growth of Grindsmith, fuelled by their belief in our proposition and eco ethos from the word go. Their loan enabled us to move into our first permanent premises last year, the success of which has enabled us to expand into our second and now third premises. We are also looking at further expansion within GM and possibly into London within the next few years\u201d\nLuke said: \u201cWe have created a concept that gives our customers a space to meet, a place to work, and a location to take joy in coffee and, by focusing on quality and delivery, we aim to be the coffee destination of choice for our community. BFS has always recognised the value of that and it has been great to work with their team again to bring our distinctive coffee and dining experience to a wider audience in MediaCityUK.\u201d\nLynn Haime, asset manager at MediaCityUK said: \u201cGrindsmith is a great addition to the thriving food and drink scene here at MediaCityUK. The mixture of food, coffee and cocktails in such stylish surroundings is perfect for the workers and visitors alike, who frequent MediaCityUK. We look forward to seeing what comes next for this exciting brand.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "The Midwest region has been different than any other region in the NCAA Tournament. They had the lowest seed to win in the first round (Winthrop), the lowest seed to advance to the Sweet Sixteen (UNLV), and the lowest seed in the Elite Eight (Oregon). Can the \u201cCinderella\u201d Ducks knock off the defending champion Florida Gators?\nFlorida, the #1 seed, has not played to their potential thus far in the NCAA Tournament. However, it seems that the Gators have a switch that they turn on down the stretch to pull away. They dominated the second half against Jackson State in the opening round after trailing for most of the first half. In the second round, the Gators were down again to Purdue, but the experienced players made plays late in the game to get the victory. Against Butler in the Sweet Sixteen, Florida had an athleticism and talent advantage again, but they needed more clutch performances to advance. They can\u2019t afford a slow start against Oregon.\nOregon is one of the hottest teams in the country, dating back to the Pac-10 Tournament that they dominated. They have shed the \u201cunderachiever\u201d label people have placed on them the past few years, and are now in line for a trip to Atlanta. They opened the Tournament with a hard-fought win over Miami (Ohio) in a game that went down to the wire. In the second round, the Ducks killed any Cinderella run Winthrop had in mind with a dominant second-half. Against UNLV in the Sweet Sixteen, Oregon controlled most of the game, but the Rebels made a late-game run that nearly brought them back in it. The Ducks need to keep their hot streak alive.\nFlorida came into the season as one of the favorites to win the National Championship, and, aside from a late-season slump, the Gators have been up to the task. Will the Gators be the first team since Duke to repeat, though? That remains to be seen. Florida can play multiple styles, and is never out of a game due to their talent and experience. They are one of the most complete teams in the country. Joakim Noah and Al Horford lead the way for the best frontcourt in the country. Noah is athletic and can do a variety of things. Horford is a very good rebounder and scorer in the post, while Corey Brewer is one of the best two-way players in the country. Taurean Green is an underappreciated point guard, while Lee Humphrey is one of the best three-point shooters around. Chris Richard is a banger off the bench that would start for most teams. Walter Hodge is quick on the perimeter. The Gators have all the ingredients for a title.\nOregon was projected to be a middle-of-the-pack Pac-10 team despite their high talent level, mostly because of the disappointing seasons they have had in the past few years. However, they have played to their potential this season. Oregon is a perimeter-oriented team that has a multitude of guys that can shoot the three. If they are hitting their threes, they are nearly impossible to beat. As mentioned previously, they are led by their terrific perimeter group. Aaron Brooks was a Player of the Year candidate for most of the season, and freshman Tajuan Porter can really stretch the defense. He had 33 points in the Sweet Sixteen Bryce Taylor is a good scorer, and Malik Hairston is extremely talented and has plenty of potential. Maarty Leunen gives them a good option down low. He can do a variety of things up front. The starters play most of the minutes, but Joevan Catron is a banger down low. The Ducks have the personnel to beat anyone.\nThis is going to be a very entertaining match-up between two teams that like to score. Expect plenty of points. Florida is better in a half-court setting than Oregon, but when the Ducks are knocking down their three-pointers, look out. Both teams have plenty of options offensively. If Florida is to make the repeat trip to the Final Four, they are going to need to take advantage of their post advantage. Oregon doesn\u2019t have the big men to handle Joakim Noah and Al Horford down low, and the Gators have a huge edge there. Taurean Green needs to handle the ball pressure that Oregon is sure to provide. He can\u2019t turn the ball over, which will give Oregon transition opportunities. Defensively, they need to get out on the Ducks\u2019 shooters, and not allow them to get hot from deep. On the other side, Oregon has to find a way to defend the Florida post players. Oregon has a quickness advantage, but Florida is simply bigger and strong down low. Offensively, they need to take advantage of their perimeter players. Malik Hairston could be a key player, with his athleticism and versatility up front. Moreover, Aaron Brooks needs to be the catalyst for Oregon. He has to control the tempo, and outplay Taurean Green at the point of attack. In the end, I think that Florida has too much size down low. Oregon won\u2019t have an answer for Noah and Horford. If the Ducks continue their hot shooting, though, expect a close game.\nPrediction: Florida 74, Oregon 69",

        "raw_content": "Motilal Oswal Financial Services has been playing an instrumental role in being the finance partner of choice among its consumers. Over a period of three decades, it has provided products and advice to help create wealth through equity investing. To celebrate its focus on equity and wealth creation, the company has rolled out its latest brand campaign to position itself as an equity investing expert.\nConceptualised by Mullen Lintas Mumbai, the brand film firmly establishes the role of the company as an expert in Equity & Equity Mutual Funds. The brand film goes on to trace some exceptional talent from across the country whose skills would put normal people to shame. A clerk at an office who's faster than a machine in processing paperwork or construction workers at a building site that get their job done using unique or a chef at an hotel who gets his chore done in the blink of an eye or even a barber, a bar-tender, a street food vendor, etc. All these individuals go on to show that \"if you focus on one thing for a long time, you master it\". That's what has driven Motilal Oswal to emerge leaders in equity investing.\nCommenting on the brand ideology and brief given to the agency, Ramnik Chhabra, Marketing Director, Motilal Oswal said: \"Drive by our office at night and it will be lit green or red depending on how the stock markets have performed that day. Instead of 'Up-Down' buttons, our elevators have visuals of Bulls and Bears. We have one of the largest equity research departments in the industry. All the money of the company and promoters is invested only in equity. Needless to say; we are an 'only equity focused' investing house. This focus has helped us create a unique stock picking methodology (QGLP) to create wealth. The aim of the film is to, well; focus on this focus! And hence present Motilal Oswal as the equity expert you should think of if you are thinking about investing in equity.\"\nHighlighting the creative idea behind the campaign, Garima Khandelwal, ECD-Mullen Lintas said, \"Let's celebrate skill, and the passion to do what you do every day and become the boss of it. The flair, rhythm and style makes it unique especially for the financial category. And that's the contrast that excited us, for our clients. Motilal Oswal have mastered equity, and that is the single minded message we needed to put out loud and clear, hopefully entertaining all as they watch it.\"\nAdding his views, Ayyappan Raj, EVP-Mullen Lintas said, \"The client's brief was quite simple and in a way very fundamental - we have been in the business of equity for 30 years and we're really good at it. They pushed us to make this point in the most interesting way. What we've tried is exactly that, to make a point about how Motilal Oswal has been very successful with equity over the last thirty years. In a manner that's fresh to the category and makes for enjoyable viewing. It was great working with the brand team on this campaign and they've been quite supportive of seeing this idea through in the best possible form.\"\nCreative: Shriram Iyer, Garima Khandelwal, Satish Sethumadhavan, Angud Bhalla, Trishna Parkash, Ripanka Kalita\nAccount Management: Ayyappan Raj, Manish Somani, Akshata Krishnamurthy\nPlanning: Ekta Relan, Pallavi Bhosale\nProduction House (Director): Nirvana Films (Kishore Aiyyar)\nClient: Motilal Oswal\nTeam: Ramnik Chhabra, Charles Nadar",

        "raw_content": "Multitasking is the least efficient way of getting things done. We would like to believe that doing multiple tasks at once saves time and increase productivity.\nWe multitask in many ways, but regardless if we are performing two tasks simultaneously or switching from one task to another without completing the first task, the cost is substantial. Texting and driving might be the worst example.\nHopefully with the knowledge of how it impacts our productivity we can make the better choice.\n3 Reasons To Stop Multitasking:\n1. Multitasking has been shown to lower IQ\nA study out of the University of London shows that multitasking lowers your IQ. It found that participants who multitasked during cognitive tasks experienced IQ score declines similar to what they\u2019d expect if they had smoked pot or stayed up all night. IQ drops of 15 points for multitasking men lowered their scores to the average range of an 8-year-old child.\nResearchers have also shown that switching between tasks rapidly can exacerbate existing difficulties with concentration.\n2. Productivity drops drastically (Up to 40%)\nMultitasking can be thought of as an advantageous trait, especially for employers. The ability to perform multiple tasks at once. Unfortunately, you are a lot more likely to make errors when you switching from task to task than if you did one at a time.\nWhat\u2019s actually going on is task-switching or jumping from one thing to another.\n3. Decreases creativity and memory function\nTaking on too many things at the same time clouds your mind\u2019s ability to remember important details. The more tasks you add the less efficient your brain is.\nThe 90-Minute Solution: Ultradian Rhythm\nThe ultradian rhythm concept was popularized by Tony Schwartz but he was not the first to discover it.\nIn 1953, a sleep researcher named Nathaniel Kleitman demonstrated that there were at least two major kinds of sleep.\nHis discovery is often described as the beginning of modern sleep research and used by many to increase productivity. Kleitman proposed the existence of a basic rest-activity cycle, or BRAC, during both sleep and wakefulness. The cycle takes 90 minutes in both states.\nHe suggested that when we are awake we have a similar movement of higher to lower alertness. This is what\u2019s known as the ultradian rhythm.\nMultitaskingProductivityUltradian Rhythm",

        "raw_content": "\u00ab Sawant wants to strengthen... | \u2018We will fight\u2019 \u2014... \u00bb\nGood Citizen to make way for Harvard Avenue School expansion\nPosted on Wednesday, January 25, 2017 - 12:55 pm by Kaylee Osowski\n(Images: Harvard Avenue School)\nGood Citizen (Images: CHS)\nAnother impending business closure on Capitol Hill illustrates the varied ways coincidences of similar events can form together to make you say, hey, what\u2019s going on around here. This time, a loss for lovers of coffee and couches is a win for Capitol Hill\u2019s two-year-olds.\nWith a strong demand for a toddler program, the Harvard Avenue School, which offers early childhood education through pre-kindergarten, is planning to expand into the Good Citizen coffee shop located on the ground floor of the school.\n\u201cThere is an enormous demand for full day care since Amazon has brought so many new families to Seattle,\u201d Andrea Hackman, founder and director of the school, tells CHS CHS. \u201cThe market is pretty saturated with half day preschool, but there are more and more families needing full day childcare (which we currently do not offer). Once we begin offering that I\u2019m confident it will be extremely popular.\u201d\nThe expansion means the end of one of the more curious experiments in the neighborhood\u2019s recent waves of food and drink investments.\nBorn as a plan for another neighborhood cocktail and coffee bar, this time on E Olive Way, it was difficult for a while to tell if Good Citizen was open for business or not but we mark the date to winter of 2015. By summer of 2016, the former Online Cafe was coffee only and providing the neighborhood with a comfortable, hidden away place to hang out, lounge, or get some work done.\nFriedman said he is planning to close the cafe soon. \u201cIt\u2019s too bad because we created a really amazing community,\u201d Good Citizen owner Andrew Friedman said. \u201cA little microspot right there. There\u2019s really nothing else like it around this area.\u201d\nFriedman also said that despite the withdrawal of liquor application for the Eight Foot cooperative of employees planning to take over his 15th Ave E bar Liberty that the transition is moving forward. One hangup in the process according to documents provided by the liquor board is Liberty\u2019s restaurant-class liquor license. Without changing the scale of food offered at the bar, the potential new cooperative owners won\u2019t be able to renew the license, the board informed the group, according to a letter sent last fall. In the meantime, Friedman said he might need to make a few tweaks to Liberty\u2019s sushi offerings to keep up with what he said were changing regulations. \u201cWhen we first started, the food we had was plenty,\u201d Friedman said.\nCHS checked in with Good Citizen and the cooperative-ization of Liberty here last summer. \u201cWe had a kid, and we decided we\u2019d rather spend time with her than be in a bar 18 hours a day,\u201d Friedman said at the time of the changes coming to his businesses.\nGood Citizen first opened in February 2015 after two years of battling red tape \u2014 and the start of the city\u2019s move to a $15 minimum wage. While he dealt with delays with local government over permits and inspections of his project, Friedman and Liberty also took on city leaders in the fight against a $15 minimum in Seattle. During the time, Friedman also lost his right-hand man as Liberty co-owner Keith Waldbauer left to work on a book and his consulting business.\nAccording to its Facebook page, Good Citizen extended its hours to 9 PM in December and released a new coffee bar menu in November.\nHarvard Avenue School\u2019s growth is a big part of the story. The school is in a multi-story house at 201 Harvard Ave and currently has one preschool class of 18 kids and a pre-kindergarten class of 20 and six teachers. Good Citizen resides below. A visit to the cafe at 1720 E Olive Way during certain times of day provides a symphony of kid giggles and the sounds of scrambling sneakers from the activities above.\nThe expansion to fill the entire building the school is located in is something Hackman said she has been considering for years. \u201cWe have families with children in multiple age groups (a toddler and a pre-k student, for example) who will appreciate one drop off location for both children,\u201d she said.\nThe school plans to add five more teachers for the new program. If the school extends program hours and has varied shifts, more could be added. Hackman told CHS the school is also considering a \u201cwaddler\u201d program, which would serve children ages 12 too 22 months.\nThe architect on the expansion project is Capitol Hill\u2019s Graham Baba.\nHarvard Avenue School opened on Capitol Hill in 2002. Its Madison Valley campus, which opened in 2005 offers toddler, preschool, and pre-kindergarten classes.\n\u201cParents really appreciate being able to begin with us at age two and being able to stay with us until their child begins kindergarten,\u201d Hackman wrote.\nThe school hopes to begin construction this spring, completing the work in June. If everything goes as planned, school in the new space will begin in September.\nThis entry was posted in Food & Drink, News, etc. and tagged coffee, e olive way, kids, schools by Kaylee Osowski.

The environment for successful small business operation is getting more and more difficult, but we do appreciate when the local press reminds people about the effects of the changing environment that is affecting all of us who have lived on the Hill for so long.\nOne bit of the interview that didn\u2019t make it into the reporting is that Good Citizen has been doing very well, but because the owner of the Harvard School\u2019s father owns the building, they declined to renew our lease due to what the school\u2019s owner stated, the \u201cenormous demand for full day care since Amazon has brought so many new families to Seattle.\u201d, surprising us as we got the news that we were to be kicked out after we made over $100K worth of improvements to the space, many of which surely will be enjoyed by the school, catering to the Amazon employees and their children.\nAs we resist the actions of Trump and his administration, we should also be reminded that our own city is changing and that small businesses are often at the mercy of those changes.\nJason on Friday, February 3, 2017 - 5:27 pm said:\nI have grown to love this space. The staff is very nice and the service is very good. (Although sometimes slow because they are friends with all their customers and therefore chatty \u2013 not a complaint! haha)",

Now she's on the run in a foreign country, and has no idea why.\nNavy SEAL, Aiden O\u2019Malley, had his reasons for turning his back on Evie all those months ago, but he hasn\u2019t been able to get her out of his mind. She changed him, for better or worse. When he finds out she's missing, long-pent-up feelings come roaring to life, and he will stop at nothing to bring her home.\nEvie finds herself face-to-face with a man she vowed to forget. The flame she thought had burned out months ago suddenly ignites. Storming back to Tennessee, she is mad as hell when he follows her. Worse, she finds that the terror she\u2019d experienced abroad, is still stalking her. Aiden hounds Evie\u2019s every step as he tries to keep her alive, but she doesn\u2019t care, it\u2019s not his protection she wants. If she can\u2019t have his heart, she wants him gone. As the enemy closes in, Aiden wonders if there enough of his battered soul to give to a woman who deserves the world.\nI have read Caitlin O'Learys books for years, and have enjoyed everyone of her books, but Her Relentless SEAL has a special place in my heart; as not only is the writing and plot amazing, but its the first book I have love the two main characters from the beginning.\nAiden O'Malley wanted to protect the one women he cares so much for Evie Avery by leaving her forever (while very sweet, also stupid!), until she is kidnapped and then all bets are off! I loved Evie! Her quick wit and sarcasm, just made the book for me, and the banter between Aiden and Evie had me cracking up!\nThere was only 2 things that bugged me. 1, Trenta! What does she know! Is she tied to the passports some how? And 2, why haven't I read this whole series already!!! I'm such an idiot!! Thankfully that's an easy fix.\nI give Her Relentless SEAL 5 stars!!\nCaitlyn O'Leary is an avid reader, and considers herself a fan first and an author second. She reads a wide variety of genres, but finds herself going back to happily-ever-afters. Getting a chance to write, after years in corporate America is a dream come true. She hopes that her stories provide the kind of entertainment and escape that she has found from some of her favorite authors.\nHer Series Include: THE FOUND: It's a bit Paranormal, a bit Sci-Fi and 100% Action/Adventure. The characters have special abilities, that make them targets.\nMIDNIGHT DELTA This is focused on a group of Navy Seals. What makes them special is their bond to one another, and the women they come to love. FATE HARBOR This is the series that started her career, it is a Menage Series that takes place in Fate Harbor Washington. It focuses on a tight knit community who live and love and care for one another. She loves to hear from her readers. caitlyn@caitlynoleary.com\nLabels: Caitlyn O'Leary Next Step PR Passionately Kind Publishing",

        "raw_content": "What It's Like to Be Young and \"Feeling the Bern\"\nAmidst a crowd of approximately two thousand liberals in the heart of what seemed to be a patch of grass in the middle of nowhere, a journalist approached my friends and me with a relatively straightforward question: \u201cWhy do you support Bernie Sanders?\u201d\nHaving grown up in the rather conservative northern Virginia, I fail to recall a time when someone with an opposing viewpoint explicitly inquired into my political beliefs without an intent to antagonize. After an intense retrospective session, I have come to the conclusion that this confrontation could stem from either my young age or my so-called \u201cradical views\u201d in the perspective of both the young and old conservatives I have grown up with. Or perhaps both elements are factors. Whatever the reason, being a (somewhat raging) liberal student in northern Virginia has garnered me a bit of a local reputation. Such a reputation may stem from the stereotype of the deranged liberal, whether it be an anarchic feminist who burns her bras and chants about the patriarchy, or an avid communist destroying corporate property.\nI seem to be comprised solely of unpopular opinions: I think mustard hovers the line between revolting and some purified derivative of Satan\u2019s piss; most musicals make me cringe; I approve of President Obama and his policies. Yet, a difference in opinion cannot and should not lead to a hostile inquiry of the underlying reasoning behind such an opinion. With this being said, I am perpetually open to debating political viewpoints. One must keep in mind, however, that an intellectual debate is comprised of empathizing with and understanding the opposing viewpoint, not refusing to acknowledge its validity. A part of me (maybe the part that enjoys burning bras and attempting to dismantle the patriarchy) would like to conclude that I support a self-declared socialist just to relish at the dismay of my conservative peers. Although I have adapted to peers cringing at my political input, I deduce that I truly support Senator Sanders first and foremost for his sincere interest in protecting minority rights. From the long overdue establishment of marriage equality to a woman\u2019s right to make decisions regarding her own body, Sanders advocates not for an extreme left wing, but rather, for a sense of equality that the twenty-first century fervently demands. Tainted by the communist regimes that defined the Cold War era, the term socialism, at least in my mind, refers to the reasonable sacrifice of the individual so that everyone has enough.\nAssociating age with a lack of genuine comprehension, many adults question the validity of my opinions, especially political ones. Paradoxically, many adults simultaneously demand that the generation of millennials becomes involved with current events. Being a newcomer to the electoral system seems to elicit doubt regarding the foundation comprising my political beliefs. There exists a misconception that the American youth are unaware of the extent to which political instability adulterates the world, a misconception that stems from the assurance that teenagers are in revolt. To assume that youths are in revolt would be a valid deduction. Yet young adults are not in an insane fit of mutiny; rather, we are a part of a political revolution, one whose catalyst comes in the shape of becoming informed citizens. In regards to the higher education that should serve to prolong this catalyst, it is not unreasonable to rally behind the man that introduced the \u201cCollege for All\u201d Act. Despite his age, Senator Sanders resonates with the needs of the youth. As the job market tightens the rope around the neck of young college graduates, it is reassuring to me as a young adult that there exists a presidential candidate who understands the value that education has not only to an individual, but to an entire society as well.\nThe journalist thanked us and asked to take our picture alongside the banner we made that read \u201cFeel the Bern.\u201d Three and a half hours later upon my return, my mother demanded to know if an all-day political event had been worth sacrificing rare and precious hours of study time. To this question, I resolutely and ardently answered \u201cyes,\u201d as being consciously able to apply information I have gathered to the so-called \u201creal world\u201d exists as the most medicinal form of education.\nby Donya Zargham\n\u2190 EgyptAir Flight MS804",

        "title": "On Search Neutrality",
        "raw_content": "On Search Neutrality\nIn recent months there's been a robust and apparently well-funded debate about the legal status of search engine results, in particular Google's search results. On Tuesday, Tim Wu, a well-known law professor at Columbia weighed in with an op-ed in the New York Times, arguing that it's silly to claim that computer software has free speech rights. Back in April, equally famous UCLA professor Eugene Volokh published a paper, funded by Google, that came to the opposite conclusion, that in some cases they do. (Personally, I think they do to the extent the results reflect the intentions of the humans who wrote the code.)\nThe reason this is a hot topic, of course, is because some people whose web sites don't appear as high as they'd like in search results think it's a monopolistic plot against them, and Google should be required to present search results in a neutral way. It might be, but more likely it's not, and the cure would be far worse than the problem.\nThe whole argument about search neutrality is based on a false assumption, that there is such a thing as a neutral search result. Any mechanical definition you can invent, e.g., the page with the most incoming links, or the page with the most incoming links from other domains, will instantly be gamed by SEO spammers and the answers will be useless. Furthermore, a good search engine does a great deal of semantic analysis to get useful results. For example, if you search for key lime pie, Google recognizes that as an idiom, looks for it as a unit, and also realizes that it matches a lot of recipies so it adds decorations to the search page appropriate for a recipe search. It's a strong enough idiom that many searches, e.g., for \"can lime pie\" will be redirected to key lime pie. If you happened to name your web site \"can lime pie\", too bad, your name will be autocorrected.\nHow the heck you can make that \"neutral\" without completely destroying the utility of a search engine? You can't. The only way to imagine that you can is to completely fail to understand what search engines do.\nThe only place I can see any possibility of a remedy is in the universal search, where Google adds results from maps or plane schedules or the like. Some decades ago, as part of an antitrust settlement, IBM agreed to document and separate out some of the functions of their mainframe system OS/360. That way, if people wanted to use a competing product for a function, the product could use the defined interface and people could install it and it'd work. In practice, hardly anyone ever did, but the interfaces were there if anyone wanted them. I'd think something like that might be workable for the results other than search, with maps being the prime example. But it's not the same as making the results \"neutral\".\nRelated topics: Net Neutrality, Policy & Regulation, Web\nJohn, you might find my 2006 article Eric Goldman \u2013 Jun 21, 2012 9:03 PM PST\nJohn, you might find my 2006 article on this topic interesting.

        "raw_content": "A poster book of huge, colorful photographs of the giant planets taken by the Voyager 2 spacecraft captivated Sally Dodson-Robinson as a child in Los Angeles. \u201cI thought it was really cool. All these pictures of planets and moons,\u201d she says. \u201cI always liked astronomy when I was a child, but I didn\u2019t know how you would go about having a career in astronomy.\u201d\nShe toyed with photography and always enjoyed science, but everything fell into place as a junior at the Center for Imaging Science. That year and the following year, Dodson-Robinson carried out a research project on binary stars with then-CIS Professor Elliot Horch. This close contact with a working astronomer motivated her to pursue astronomy as a career.\nDodson-Robinson, now 31, received a Bachelor of Science degree from CIS in May 2002, graduating summa cum laude as the College of Science Student Delegate. She also accepted the College of Science Outstanding Scholar Award. She is in the midst of her third year as assistant professor of astrophysics at the University of Texas, Austin.\nThe access to such stimulating research projects at CIS, Dodson-Robinson says, directly led to her current, highly coveted, position. With Horch, Dodson-Robinson observed stars using the fine guidance sensors on the Hubble Space Telescope with the goal of finding binary, or double, stars. \u201cThe project was ongoing and when I started, we were in the very first phases of it. I think that first batch included about 12 stars. I enjoyed discovering things. I wanted to keep discovering and building knowledge.\u201d\nWith the eventual goal of attending graduate school in astrophysics, Dodson-Robinson took a year off to teach English in Japan. In 2003, she started doctoral work at University of California, Santa Cruz. She received a National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellowship between 2003 and 2006, which funded the bulk of her graduate career.\nAlmost immediately, as a result of a successful master\u2019s level class project, she began working with Professor Greg Laughlin, who studies planetary astrophysics. While it included an analysis of observational data, Dodson-Robinson\u2019s doctoral thesis took a more theoretical direction than her undergraduate work. She investigated the chemistry of planet formation and, specifically, how the composition of gas and dust determines planets\u2019 growth. The boundary between observations and theory did not faze her. \u201cIf I get interested in a question, I will use any method I can to answer the question. I\u2019m not particular about the method,\u201d she says.\nAs Dodson-Robinson put the finishing touches on her dissertation in 2008, the University of Texas offered her a faculty position. At the time, she had already accepted a Spitzer Space Telescope post-doctoral position at the NASA Exoplanet Science Insitute at the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena and so she deferred her UT offer until 2009-10.\nAt UT, Dodson-Robinson focuses on planet formation and planet archeology, but she has extended her research to include planet-forming accretion disks around stars. Analytical theory and numerical simulations of the dynamical and chemical environment of planet growth allows her to uncover the formation histories of exoplanets and Solar System objects. Using spectroscopy, she also chemically analyzes stars and their orbiting dust, reading the fossil record of planet growth. In addition, analyses of infrared observations enable her to see the composition of dust grains that make up planets.\nDodson-Robinson\u2019s collaborations are mainly rooted in her doctoral and post-doctoral work. She works extensively with two JPL researchers, Karen Willacy and Neil Turner, as well as with her \u201cgrand advisor\u201d from UCSC, Professor Emeritus Peter Bodenheimer. Harkening back to her initial astronomical inspiration as a child, this year Dodson-Robinson obtained a five-year National Science Foundation CAREER Award to study the formation of giant planets.\nWhile Dodson-Robinson, a Southern California native, does not miss the cold weather of Rochester, she looks fondly on her years at CIS and appreciates that all the students are encouraged to get involved in research. \u201cI think that was one of the most valuable things for me, since I have a career in research now,\u201d she says.",

        "title": "Inquests",
        "raw_content": "You are here: Home > Death and Bereavement > Sudden or unexplained death > Inquests\nAn inquest is an official, public enquiry, presided over by the Coroner (and in some cases involving a jury) into the cause of a sudden, unexplained or violent death. If a death cannot be explained, an inquest may be held to establish the facts of the death, such as where and how death occurred. An inquest would not normally be held if a post-mortem examination of the body could explain the cause of death. Section 17 of the Coroners Act 1962 makes provision in law for the holding of an inquest into a death.\nThe inquest will not take place until at least 6 weeks after the death. Witnesses may be required to attend the inquest to give testimony on oath regarding the circumstances and cause of the death. When a jury is present at an inquest, it is the jury rather than the Coroner who delivers the verdict. Jury service at an inquest is obligatory and a majority verdict is used to reach a verdict. Nobody is found guilty or innocent at an inquest and no criminal or civil liability is determined. There are no \"parties\" and all depositions, postmortem reports and verdict records are preserved by the Coroner and are made available to the public.\nAn inquest is usually held in a courthouse, however, hotels or local halls may also be used. The family of the deceased are entitled to attend the inquest, but they are not bound by law or legally obliged to be there. If the family attend the inquest, they do not require legal representation on their behalf (that is, a solicitor or legal adviser). Sometimes however, if legal action is being taken as a result of the death, the family may engage a solicitor to attend the inquest and take notes.\nWhen the proceedings have been completed, a verdict is returned in relation to the identity of the deceased, and how, when and where the death occurred. The range of verdicts open to the Coroner or jury (in jury cases, it is the jury that returns the verdict) include accidental death, misadventure, suicide, open verdict, natural causes and unlawful killing.\nA general recommendation designed to prevent similar deaths occurring may be made by the coroner or jury. When the inquest is completed, the Coroner issues a certificate so that the death can be properly registered.\nIf a death is due to unnatural causes, then an inquest must be held by law.\nJury at an inquest\nIn certain circumstances, a jury must be present at an inquest. Every person over the age of twenty-one years residing within a coroner's district is liable to serve on the jury at any inquest held within that district unless they are exempt. The inquest jury must consist of at least 6 people (and not more than 12 people). Circumstances where a jury is required at an inquest include where:\nThe death is due to murder, manslaughter or infanticide\nThe death took place in prison\nThe death was caused an accident, poisoning or a disease requiring notification to a government department or inspector\nThe death was caused by a road traffic accident\nThe death occurred in circumstances, which if they continued or recurred would endanger the health or safety of a member(s) of the public\nThe Coroner considers that a jury is necessary.\nTo attend as either a juror or witness at an inquest, you will receive a summons served by a member of the Garda S\u00edoch\u00e1na. This summons can be served on you in a number of ways, for example, by delivering it to you directly or leaving the summons with your spouse, child, employee or agent at your last known residence or workplace as long as that person is not under 16 years of age. Failure to attend at jury service at an inquest is an offence and you will face penalties.\nIf the jury at the inquest fail to agree on the cause of death, the Coroner can either accept the majority decision of the jury or if the decision is tied, discharge the jury and hold a new inquest.\nWitnesses at an inquest\nThe Coroner decides which witnesses should give evidence at the inquest and the order in which they should give their evidence. Evidence must be presented so as to provide a logical sequence of the circumstances surrounding the death. The postmortem result establishes the medical cause of death.\nWitnesses who are required to attend an inquest can claim for loss of earnings and expenses. The rates for fees and expenses are set by statutory instrument.\nPublic attendance at an inquest\nAll inquests are conducted in public and anyone may attend. Reports of inquests may be carried in national and local newspapers but in practice only a minority of inquests are actually reported. Coroners in Ireland are very much aware of the tragic circumstances often involved in inquests and will try to treat each inquest sympathetically. If there is a suicide note, its existence will be acknowledged. At the discretion of the Coroner, its contents may be read out in public. Every attempt is made to ensure that the inquest proceedings are not unduly intrusive on families and friends concerned.\nOfficial reports of inquests\nAs inquests are public enquiries, it is possible to obtain a copy of the post-mortem report and any depositions taken at inquest, including a copy of the verdict. These official reports are only available after the inquest has concluded. There is a small fee for these documents. Inquest papers are not available prior to the inquest being held.\nIf you have been summoned as a witness or jury member for an inquest, you will be notified to the date, time, venue of the inquest. If you have any questions about the inquest, contact your local Garda station.\nCopies of official reports of inquests are available from the local Coroner's office. To obtain a report, you will need to write to the Coroner's Office requesting this information and including the name of the deceased, the date of death, the hospital involved (if any) and the date of the inquest (if you have this information).\nVictims of crime and the coroner\nRelationship between victims of crime and the coroner when there is an enquiry into a death in Ireland.\nA Coroner in Ireland is an independent official with legal responsibility for the investigation of sudden and unexplained deaths.\nWhen someone dies unexpectedly\nAn overview of what happens when someone dies as a result of an accident or in unexplained circumstances.",

It has created a new segment. For those who are wondering how they can jump in, it\u2019s time to look at what it means to invest. While it may seem frightening at first, this digital currency packs a punch and will add value to your life.\nBefore looking at investing in Bitcoin, you need to know why it\u2019s a good idea.\n1) Scarce and Worth A Lot\n2) Most Reliable Cryptocurrency Right Now\n3) Regulated Around The World\n4) Accepted By Numerous Retailers\n5) Detailed Policies Coming Out On A Daily Basis\n6) Can Be Sent Anywhere In The World\nThese are the advantages of investing in Bitcoin. It has a jump over some of the other cryptocurrencies you might end up looking at. As you look to determine the viability of investing in an asset such as this, it\u2019s these benefits that will pop up.\nThe Bitcoin is only getting stronger and stronger with each passing day making it a robust investment opportunity.\nLet\u2019s assume you\u2019re on board and think this is one of the best investment opportunities in the world.\nWhat are you going to do now? How are you going to get started with the investment?\nThis isn\u2019t the same as going to a local stock broker and getting your asset. In fact, it is a bit more complex than that, but it can be done as long as you follow instructions. Bitcoins are still more reliable than other options where it can be hard to track them down.\nWith Bitcoins, you have to look at using Coinbase as it is the major source for this currency. At least, this is the case in places such as the US, Canada, UK, Singapore, and large parts of Europe.\nWhat about other regions of the world? You will need to go online and find an \u201cexchange finder\u201d that will help point you in the right direction. There are multiple options out there, and as long as you are going to a reliable source, the investment will work out in your favor. Keep these details in mind as you start to scout the market for an investment opportunity in Bitcoin. It has potential and finding a good source is important.\nTiming of Investment\nEven if you find where to invest and want to go ahead with it, the timing will matter a lot. You can\u2019t blindly go ahead and invest in anything, and that includes Bitcoins. You want to make sure the investment is timed, so you\u2019re able to take advantage of the market. If not, you are going to end up on the wrong end of an investment, and it might dip for a bit. Your timing always matters regardless of what you\u2019re investing in as an investor.\nSo, how are you going to time this for appropriate results moving forward?\nThe goal is to analyze the market and see what is happening. You are going to notice Bitcoin has grown over the years (rapidly) and continues to do so. However, it has periods where the price drops and those are the moments you want to look for.\nIf necessary, you can start using online tools to track this information such as Cryptowatch.\nOne of the benefits of Bitcoin is how it doesn\u2019t work with the rest of the currency market. Even if the dollar drops, the Bitcoin might rise. This is the beauty of working with a digital currency since it\u2019s not connected at the political level and is not as reliant policy decisions.\nOnce you have gained access to this information, you\u2019ll have to aim for that dip. The goal is to get it at the lowest possible price and then watch it continue to ascend. Yes, it is going to grow, and that is a given, but you still want to get the best possible deal.\nIf you do this and keep a vigilent eye out, you are going to get a deal of a lifetime as others watch in envy. Think about this as you scout the market and analyze it with care.\nThis is the information you have to keep in mind before investing in Bitcoin. Yes, there is a lot of data to process and you might find it overwhelming but you want to get it spot on. There is a lot of money being put on an asset such as this and it deserves your time. See here for information on ico and crypto business development companies.\nGo through the resources available online and then spend time on Coinbase or a local exchange to find a great deal. This is how you are going to come out on top and make a solid investment that is good for your portfolio.",

        "raw_content": "Keith E. Whittington is associate professor of politics at Princeton University, and the author of Constitutional Construction: Divided Powers and Constitutional Meaning (Cambridge, Mass., 1999) and Constitutional Interpretation: Textual Meaning, Original Intent, and Judicial Review (Lawrence, Kans., 1999).\n\"Marshall remade the Court.\"\n\"The Constitution Must Be Looked into by the Judges\"\nR. Kent Newmyer, John Marshall and the Heroic Age of the Supreme Court. Baton Rouge: Louisiana State University Press, 2001. 568 pp., $39.95 cloth.\nReview by Keith E. Whittington\nNext year will be the two-hundredth anniversary of Marbury v. Madison, one of the most famous cases ever decided by the U.S. Supreme Court. In Marbury the Court for the first time struck down a portion of a federal law as unconstitutional. It was, to say the least, an unusual event. The Court did not again explicitly exercise its power of judicial review over federal legislation for over half a century, when it struck down the Missouri Compromise in the infamous Dred Scott decision in 1856. At the dawn of the twenty-first century, such actions now seem almost routine. In the 1990s alone the Supreme Court struck down two dozen acts of Congress as violating the Constitution. At the time of Marbury, American courts were alone in the world in claiming such a power to set aside legislation. In the twentieth century, the power of constitutional review spread across the globe and is now almost universally regarded as an essential feature of a democratic and constitutional political system. Few decisions by any court can rival the symbolism and influence of the Marbury decision. Few judges can rival the stature of Marbury's author: Chief Justice John Marshall.\nThe Marshall years were, as R. Kent Newmyer aptly labels them in his new study of the great chief justice, the heroic age of the Supreme Court, and Marshall was without a doubt the hero who defined that age. No justice before or since so dominated the Court as John Marshall did. It is common to name periods of Supreme Court history after the chief justice, but the Marshall Court is the only one that can be labeled that way without inviting immediate qualification. It was John Marshall's Court. And in some ways, it still is.\nThere were few signs of what was to come when Marshall first took his seat on the bench. Marshall was one of outgoing President John Adams's notorious last-minute appointments to the federal judiciary, which had itself been dramatically expanded by the lame-duck Federalist Congress. Even as he assumed his new office, Marshall finished out his duties as secretary of state, duties that included the preparation and delivery of judicial commissions. The incoming Jeffersonians, who had swept the federal elections of 1800 from the Federalists, held the federal judiciary in contempt and regarded it as filled with partisan hacks, especially after the legal persecution of Thomas Jefferson's supporters in the years leading up to the 1800 election. The Jeffersonians in Congress in fact embarked on a sustained attack on the courts, which included the impeachment and near removal of the intemperate Justice Samuel Chase. The Federalists had held the Supreme Court in only slightly better regard. The Supreme Court heard few cases, and the justices were obliged to spend much of their time individually riding circuit to hear cases out in the states. In overseeing the plans for the construction of federal buildings in the new capital in Washington, then Secretary of State Marshall neglected even to provide space for the Supreme Court. Sessions were not infrequently cancelled when too few justices showed up. In the Court's short history three prior chief justices had resigned from the bench, the first to pursue the more attractive office of the governorship of New York, and others had declined appointments to the Court. Marshall was not even the president's first choice to fill the vacancy on the Court.\nIn these inauspicious circumstances, Marshall remade the Court. He ended the traditional practice of each justice issuing an individual opinion in every case. Instead, the Court began to speak as a single body, issuing one authoritative opinion that was often written by Marshall himself. The chief justice helped stabilize the Court, remaining in office thirty-four years until his death in 1835. He helped the Court weather the initial Jeffersonian storm, and then found allies in government and the country who supported his nationalistic vision. Indeed, the great constitutional struggles of the early nineteenth century created the opportunities for Marshall to weigh in and promote his goals. All the while he managed to maintain his informal leadership of the Court even as his political opponents chose the new justices who replaced his original Federalist colleagues. A moderate Federalist from Virginia, Marshall remained at home in the new political world after 1800 even as the Federalist Party collapsed into irrelevance. An astute political operator, Marshall helped make the Court into a respected and influential institution and helped lay the foundations for the type of power that it would exercise in the twentieth century.\nNewmyer's is one of several valuable new studies of Marshall that have appeared in the past few years. Part of the Southern Biography Series at LSU Press, this book focuses on Marshall's constitutional thought and its development over time, primarily as expressed in his many judicial opinions. Newmyer, who earlier produced a similar and well-regarded study of Justice Joseph Story (whom one legal historian has called \"a thinking man's John Marshall\"), handles the task expertly. This readable \"interpretive biography\" examines Marshall's \"life in the law,\" explaining his work and contribution to the nation's political development in relation to his personality and early career.\nAs Newmyer notes, Marshall was not the most learned lawyer of the early republic, and his greatness primarily rests on surprisingly few judicial opinions. Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes once asserted, with some truth, that Marshall occupied \"a strategic point in the campaign of history, and part of his greatness consists of his being there.\" But Marshall knew how to take maximum advantage of his opportunities, and how to avoid overplaying his hand. Although by the time of his death the chief justice was quite pessimistic about the future of his constitutional values, and of the Constitution itself, Newmyer nicely traces the ways in which Marshall was quickly made into a mythic figure and a central reference point for those who came after him. Marshall not only had the advantage of \"being there,\" but also of holding views that would eventually win the day and giving reason for later judges to find in his thinking a reflection of their own beliefs and ambitions. His colleague and friend, Joseph Story, published in 1833 the extremely influential Commentaries on the Constitution, which effectively identified the Constitution with Marshall's particular understanding of it. At the time of his death, he was revered in the commercial North. Throughout the nineteenth century, Marshall was the hero of nationalists. In the battles of industrialization, he was the defender of property rights. To the New Dealers, he was the advocate of government power. And ever since the Supreme Court invoked the language of Marbury to denounce southern resistance to school desegregation, he has been above all a prophet of judicial power.\nMarbury was an impressive performance by Marshall and indicative of his achievements on the Court, but not for the reasons that it is usually celebrated now. William Marbury was another of the last-minute judicial appointments made by President John Adams, in this case to the post of justice of the peace in the District of Columbia. Marshall, as secretary of state, was unable to deliver all of the commissions, however, and when Thomas Jefferson assumed the presidency he ordered that the undelivered commissions remain that way. Marbury asked the Supreme Court to issue a writ of mandamus to force Jefferson's secretary of state, James Madison, to deliver the commission and allow him to take office. The administration denied the authority of the Court to intervene in what Jefferson regarded as an internal matter within the executive branch, refusing to send a lawyer to argue the case before the Court or even to admit the existence of the commission. The capital was full of speculation that the president would refuse to obey the Court if Marshall ruled against him. Putting Jefferson to the test risked a humiliating blow to the Court's prestige and perhaps enduring consignment to political irrelevance, but neither did Marshall want to accept Jefferson's contention that the Court could not supervise presidential conduct. Marshall escaped the dilemma by declaring that Congress exceeded its constitutional authority by giving the Court the power to hear such a case and thus dismissed Marbury's case for lack of jurisdiction. (Marshall's interpretation of the statute and the Constitution in Marbury remains controversial, feeding the suspicion that he was merely looking for an excuse to avoid having to rule either for or against the administration.) Marshall only reached this conclusion, however, at the end of a lengthy opinion chastising the administration and making clear that the Court would have ruled in Marbury's favor on the merits. The power of judicial review was first used by the Court to renounce some of the power that Congress had tried to give it. Marshall was simultaneously able to make his legal and political points against the administration, to claim the power of judicial review, and to avoid a direct confrontation with Jefferson that the Court probably would have lost.\nAlthough Marbury is now celebrated for its bold assertion of the power of judicial review, that assertion attracted little attention at the time. The Jeffersonians instead filled the papers with harsh denunciations of Marshall for addressing the substance of a case that the Court admitted it never should have heard. In fact, Marshall's explanation of the power of judicial review was wholly uncontroversial. After all, the Court did not offend any political constituency or significantly limit congressional power by striking down a section of the Judiciary Act. By 1803, few doubted the existence of some form of judicial review under the Constitution, and the Supreme Court had noted the existence of such a power in earlier cases. Marshall's argument in favor of the power was itself unoriginal. Marshall did not boldly invent a new power for the Court. He merely gave eloquent expression to a widely understood constitutional principle. Marbury is exemplary of what political scientist Mark Graber has called the \"passive-aggressive\" character of the Marshall Court. Marshall was adept at seizing opportunities to give voice to his constitutional vision and enhance judicial authority while avoiding actions that would expose the Court to reprisals or embarrassment. In doing so, he successfully navigated dangerous political waters and kept the Court afloat.\nNewmyer concludes by observing that first Jefferson and later Andrew Jackson taught Marshall the bitter lesson \"that the Court does not have the final word on the Constitution . . . What he did not fully appreciate was that the Court as an institution did not have to be final to remain the center of American constitutional government\" (484). To his chagrin, Marshall was rarely able to settle constitutional and political debates with his opinions, and his arrogant belief that the Court could and should do so eventually contributed to his beloved institution's great \"self-inflicted wound\" of Dred Scott. But Marshall did demonstrate that the Court could have an important voice in constitutional debates, and Marshall's reputation rests in no small part on the fact that his constitutional values were shared by others and eventually became politically dominant. Marshall could not have anticipated, and can hardly be credited for, the kind of power that the Court wields today. Even so, the lessons of the Marshall Court remain valuable ones. The Court's power and authority depends on its political circumstances and the extent to which its constitutional opinions find favor with others.",

        "raw_content": "Climate Action recently caught up with Karen Hamberg, Vice President, Industry and Government Relations at Westport Fuel Systems- a Gold Sponsor for the 8th Sustainable Innovation Forum, about the future of the transport system.\n1. Westport Fuel Systems provides advanced clean-burning fuel systems for a cleaner transportation future. Do you want to say a few words about what you do?\nWestport Fuel Systems, with corporate headquarters in Vancouver, British Columbia invents, engineers, manufactures, and supplies advanced clean-burning fuel systems and components to address the challenges of global climate change and urban air quality. With our global network, we deliver innovative products for transportation and industrial applications under 11 brands to customers in more than 70 countries including many of the largest and fastest alternative fuel engine and vehicle markets.\n2. It is true that we have witnessed immense changes in the regulatory environment regarding emissions from transportation. Do you think the industry is ready for the changes?\nThe transportation sector has historically innovated in response to regulations specific to fuel economy, criteria air pollutant emissions, or engine/vehicle efficiency. But the sector is now undergoing a profound transformation with The Paris Climate Accord signaling a strong call to action on greenhouse gas emission reductions.\nThe increasing availability of low-carbon fuels, the rise of a multi-fuel economy with natural gas, electric vehicles, biofuels, and hydrogen competing with diesel and gasoline, continued technological advancements and breakthroughs on both incumbent and new powertrains, the participation of non-traditional industry players with capital to invest in autonomous vehicles, and the emergence of new transportation companies have already begun to influence how people and freight are moved. There has never been a better or more exciting time to work on clean transportation technology.\n3. What alternative transport and energy technologies do you think provide significant future business opportunities?\nThe transport sector is diverse and complex. The critical distinctions between on-road and off-road, light-duty and heavy-duty, and passenger versus freight means that we will see the deployment of different technologies and a range of low-carbon and renewable fuels depending on what application or duty cycle the vehicle is performing. This variability introduces incredible business opportunities but even more importantly it will require creative, strong, and adaptive policies to support early market creation activities and efforts to commercialize and scale the technologies and products.\n4. Do you currently work on a particularly exciting project?\nWestport has a proven track record of developing and engineering engine and vehicle technologies that enable fleets to reduce their GHG emissions. In recent months, we have seen momentum pick up as global leading original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) have validated natural gas and renewable natural gas as the best available climate alternative to diesel for the long-haul heavy-duty transport sector to reduce the climate impact of their fleet.\nWestport\u2019s next generation HPDI 2.0 technology provides heavy-duty truck and engine OEMs with a cost effective fully integrated natural gas solution that, when engineered into the OEM\u2019s base diesel engine, results in the same high performance and fuel economy as the diesel truck that customers demand. The product delivers GHG emission reduction benefits of 20-95% in the heavy-duty freight sector, a sector that has historically been difficult to decarbonize given the challenge of economically displacing the energy density of diesel. The deployment of HPDI will provide OEMs with an economically competitive option for increasingly stringent GHG emission reduction requirements.\n5. This year you are sponsoring the 8th Sustainable Innovation Forum. Why did you decide to get involved?\nThe Sustainable Innovation Forum running in parallel to COP 23 convenes key stakeholders, decision-makers, and influencers from around the world to advance a global dialogue on sustainability and climate change. Leaders from government, industry, environmental groups, academia, and civil society are at the Sustainable Innovation Forum to share best practices and challenges. It is important for Westport to contribute our perspective and expertise, but even more importantly to learn from the leading organizations represented in Bonn. The Sustainable Innovation Forum brings together those who see the incredible power of collaboration and cooperation and the importance of harnessing our collective intellectual horsepower.\nKaren Hamberg will be speaking in the \u201cRoadmap to a Sustainable Global Mobility System\u201d discussion panel during the first day of the 8th Sustainable Innovation Forum, taking place alongside COP23, on 13-14 November in Bonn, Germany.",

        "raw_content": "The Facebook \"Share this!\" Hall of Shame\nThread: The Facebook \"Share this!\" Hall of Shame\nI know much of this is standard board snark, but it's mentioned a lot on the Trumpian right as part of the \"they brought this upon themselves\" argument. And in a sense, they did. But the argument seems premised on the belief that the parents are doing this out of either malevolence or stupidity. If my domestic situation were so dire, due to governmental tyranny or gangs, that I had no other hope than to get my kids into a possibly better situation, I'd do whatever I could to get them there. I'd be willing to take on the legal risks, but I don't think I should be scorned or abused for doing so.\nMaybe an open letter from a previous administration would change your mind...\nAn open letter to the parents of children crossing our Southwest border\nThis year, a record number of children will cross our Southern border illegally into the United States. In the month of May alone, the number of children, unaccompanied by a mother or father, who crossed our southern border reached more than 9,000, bringing the total so far this year to 47,000. The majority of these children come from Honduras, El Salvador and Guatemala, where gang and drug violence terrorize communities. To the parents of these children I have one simple message: Sending your child to travel illegally into the United States is not the solution.\nIt is dangerous to send a child on the long journey from Central America to the United States. The criminal smuggling networks that you pay to deliver your child to the United States have no regard for his or her safety and well-being \u2013- to them, your child is a commodity to be exchanged for a payment. In the hands of smugglers, many children are traumatized and psychologically abused by their journey, or worse, beaten, starved, sexually assaulted or sold into the sex trade; they are exposed to psychological abuse at the hands of criminals. Conditions for an attempt to cross our southern border illegally will become much worse as it gets hotter in July and August.\nThe long journey is not only dangerous; there are no \u201cpermisos,\u201d \u201cpermits,\u201d or free passes at the end.\nThe U.S. Government\u2019s Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, also called \u201cDACA,\u201d does not apply to a child who crosses the U.S. border illegally today, tomorrow or yesterday. To be eligible for DACA, a child must have been in the United States prior to June 15, 2007 \u2014 seven years ago.\nAlso, the immigration reform legislation now before Congress provides for an earned path to citizenship, but only for certain people who came into this country on or before December 31, 2011 \u2014 two and one half years ago. So, let me be clear: There is no path to deferred action or citizenship, or one being contemplated by Congress, for a child who crosses our border illegally today.\nRather, under current U.S. laws and policies, anyone who is apprehended crossing our border illegally is a priority for deportation, regardless of age. That means that if your child is caught crossing the border illegally, he or she will be charged with violating United States immigration laws, and placed in deportation proceedings \u2014 a situation no one wants. The document issued to your child is not a \u2018permiso,\u2019 but a Notice To Appear in a deportation proceeding before an immigration judge.\nAs the Secretary of Homeland Security, I have seen first-hand the children at our processing center in Texas. As a father, I have looked into the faces of these children and recognized fear and vulnerability.\nThe desire to see a child have a better life in the United States is understandable. But, the risks of illegal migration by an unaccompanied child to achieve that dream are far too great, and the \u201cpermisos\u201d do not exist.\nJeh C. Johnson\nSecretary of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security\nhttps://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/...n_5522283.html\nSo you would send your child on a 2,000 mile journey with some strangers who may abuse and rape them along the way only to be deported and returned back to where they started? Thank god you are not my parent.\nGood to see the loyal trumpism goes across topics\nTo your question, no, I would not, although it underscores the desperation of those who do. To your second sentence, I heartily agree. But if I had been, we would have spent some talking about how politicians are inconsistent and often hypocrites, and that one needn't post endlessly on that theme as if it were a hot take.\nHaha. Savage.\nDidn't really intend it to be. I also didn't mean to intend to omit the word \"time\" before \"talking\" but I usually avoid post hoc edits so I'll let it be...\n. . .I usually avoid post hoc edits so I'll let it be...\nThat seems like a strange a strange ethos to stick to. Any particular reason? Just curious. I probably make post hoc changes on a large percentage of the few posts I make.\nMy wife\u2019s aunt just posted this with 100% sincerity.\nIt's more out of inertia than an ethos. I've fixed many typos and omissions right after posting when I spot the inevitable errors. But if I spot something amiss hours or days later, I figure I should let it stand and take my lumps. No lofty principles involved here, although laziness pervades my life...\nthose lebrons are basically a war crime anyway\nlol I bet Hollywood is just teeming with people wearing work boots. And I'm sure no people wearing work boots would ever be willing to flip off Trump's star.\nHaha. This thread always delivers.\nMy MIL\u2019s husband with the timeline trifecta.\nLOL. Of course Australians should learn their anthem!\nStuff like this doubles as a handy IQ test.\nNo, they need to learn OUR anthem.\nThe Facebook &quot;Share this!&quot; Hall of Shame\nAbsolutely. How does one read this and say to themselves, \u201cwell this seems totally reasonable.\u201d How does one even have a conversation with someone that would post this? I spend a week in a house boat on Lake Powell every summer with this guy and just want to yell at him to stop being such a dummy the whole time. It\u2019s maddening.\nLast edited by Dwight Schr-ute; 07-01-2018 at 04:25 PM.\nI bet Uncle Ted never thought of this one:\nUT has nothing on my crazy uncle.\nSound logic in this one.\nMoney is coming to your door tonight in Jesus name\ud83d\udcb8\nType Amen and Share to claim this blessing\ud83d\ude4f\nSporting a kick ass pair of Mephisto Sharks, no doubt!\nMoney is coming to your door tonight in Jesus name\ufffd\ufffd\nType Amen and Share to claim this blessing\ufffd\ufffd\nWe don\u2019t know who it is, but we object!

        "raw_content": "For the third year in a row, artists from as far as Sacramento to San Jose came to Redwood City to share their passion and creativity. For two days, we were drawing street paintings and illusions, while visitors walked among us enjoying the art, food, and the Fourth of July Parade.\nPeople had the chance to see my Monarch Butterflies come to life before their eyes as I began and completed my large-scale chalk art piece in just two days. I tried to turn my butterflies into a 3D painting. The first day, I left the house at 5:45 a.m. and worked until sunset. It was the first time that I attended a Chalk Festival. So I still had to figure out my technique in the process. The asphalt didn\u2019t take the charcoal paint well. So I worked rougher and didn\u2019t do much blending of colors. The second day, I started with the sunrise and finished around 2 p.m. As soon as the sun came out it was hot as we chalked on the pavement. After a while you lose yourself in the work. It becomes quite meditative. I\u2019m very grateful for my sponsors Kris Johnson and Julie Pardini. Kris Johnson and his family supported me during the event and let me stay at their place. The event was very exhausting, but a great experience!\nThe process and vulnerability of the piece remind me of sand mandalas from Tibetan monks. I\u2019m sure the chalk paintings will be left on the Court Square for a time, but they are very fragile. So better go soon, if you want to see them in full glory.\n\u2190 Dada Gallery: Reflections on Liberation and Transcendence Urban Wallflower SF at Westfield Centre - Love is Love \u2192",

        "raw_content": "Customer Scenario\u00ae Design: An Approach for Outside Innovation\nCo-Designing Your Business with Your Customers\nWe\u2019ve spent 20 years working with companies and their customers to co-design business processes from the outside in using our Customer Scenario Mapping (CSM) Methodology. Here is a brief introduction to the fundamentals of CSM.\nDESIGNING PRODUCTS AND SERVICES TO HELP CUSTOMERS ACCOMPLISH THEIR GOALS\nHow do you figure out what customers really want, need, and will pay for? This is the foundational question for any business. It\u2019s also a question to which many business theorists and practitioners have devoted a lot of thought (and ink). We were delighted to discover that Clayton Christensen, the author of two well-regarded business books--The Innovator\u2019s Dilemma and The Innovator\u2019s Solution--has discovered and documented a basic business truth that we\u2019ve been practicing for almost 20 years. You design products and services to help customers accomplish their desired outcomes. We call these Customer Scenario. Clayton refers to them as \u201cthe jobs that customers need to get done.\u201d\n\u201c\u2026Customers--people and companies--have \u2018jobs\u2019 that arise regularly and need to get done. When customers become aware of a job that they need to get done in their lives, they look around for a product or service that they can \u2018hire\u2019 to get the job done. This is how customers experience life. Their thought processes originate with an awareness of needing to get something done, and then they set out to hire something or someone to do the job as effectively, conveniently and inexpensively as possible. The functional, emotional, and social dimension of the jobs that customers need to get done constitute the circumstances in which they buy.\nIn other words, the jobs that customers are trying to get done or the outcomes that they are trying to achieve constitute a circumstance-based categorization of \u2018markets.\u2019 Companies that target their products at the circumstances in which customers find themselves, rather than at the customers themselves, are those that can launch predictably successful products. Put another way, the critical unit of analysis is the circumstance and not the customer.\u201d[1]\nWe believe that what Clay Christensen groups together under the rubric \u201ccircumstances\u201d actually includes several distinct concepts: the customers\u2019 context, the \u201cjob\u201d they need to do (our Customer Scenario), their desired outcomes, and their constraints (what we refer to as \u201cconditions of satisfaction.\u201d[2])\nHow is this concept of \u201cjobs that customers need to do\u201d or Customer Scenarios different from traditional customer segmentation and needs analysis? It\u2019s subtly different. But that subtlety is important. It\u2019s not enough to identify a group of customers who have certain things in common for whom you are going to develop a solution; you also need to know what scenarios these customers actually care about accomplishing. What outcomes are they trying to achieve?\nTHE FUNDAMENTALS OF CUSTOMER SCENARIO MAPPING\nFor almost 20 years, we have been working with our clients helping them figure out their customers\u2019 desired outcomes. Our Customer Scenario approach is designed to identify what your company can do to support your customers in achieving these goals in the way that works best for them. And how do we know what customers want to do and how to do it? We ask them! Customer involvement is a key component of Customer Scenario \u017d Design--an outside-in approach to innovation.\nHere\u2019s a brief rundown of some of the basic principles of customer co-design using our Customer Scenario Mapping approach. Typical sessions involve up to 24 customers who map out four ideal scenarios, take a half-day, and yield dramatic results.\nCustomer Scenario Design Principles\nThe core design elements of customer scenario design and mapping include:\nDesign from the end customers\u2019 point of view--from the outside in!\nInvolve multiple stakeholders to provide context and to build a shared mental model. Whenever possible, include your customers and your partners, as well as representatives from sales, support, IT, operations, and product groups.\nMap out the ideal state--the vision! Don\u2019t get bogged down in current reality. Feel free to innovate.\nCapture context, content elements, and technology services in a single session.\nIdentify the metrics that are crucial to your customers--what are their conditions of satisfaction and how do they measure them?\nConvey the results by telling the story of the map. The power of storytelling will \u201csell\u201d the customers\u2019 vision to all who hear it.\nWhat\u2019s a Customer Scenario?\nBasically, a customer scenario is the process that a customer would ideally like to do in order to achieve a desired outcome (not how they do it today!).\nExamples of Scenarios. Consumers\u2019 scenarios might include the following:\n* I want to replace my non-functioning car\n* I want to buy and learn to use a digital camera\n* I want to invest money, earn a great return, and enjoy a great lifestyle\n* I want my child to have stimulating, loving, safe, and affordable daycare\nBusiness-to-business customer scenarios might be:\n* I want my users successfully migrated to the next version of software\n* I want my software licenses and maintenance agreements to co-terminate at the end of my fiscal year.\n* I want to design a new blockbuster product\nCustomer Scenario Terminology\nLet\u2019s look at an example, a product designer\u2019s scenario--I want to design a blockbuster product!\nWho Is the Customer? In Customer Scenario Mapping, teams of customers define their own representative \u201cpersona\u201d--the customer who represents the \u201cI\u201d in the \u201cI want.\u201d Because the persona is defined by the customers themselves, it includes many of the values and beliefs they hold in common. Customers give their persona a name, a role, and a context. For example, \u201cDonna is a busy product designer at a housewares manufacturer who is charged with coming up with a new product for the spring line.\u201d Customers will add relevant context and details that are representative of their collective context, concerns, and situations.\nDesired Outcomes. Beyond designing a blockbuster product for the line, what does Donna really want? How does she want to feel about her product? How does she want to feel about the process of designing the product? Her desired outcome might well be: \u201cI want my product to sell 20 percent more than other products of its type, for it to win a coveted innovation award, and for me to get a promotion and a big raise!\u201d\nConditions of Satisfaction. Surrounding the desired outcome are a number of conditions of satisfaction. For example, Donna\u2019s design must \u201cmeet regulatory standards, be able to be manufactured within a set budget and a set timeframe, and be supported by a well-tuned marketing campaign.\u201d\nMoments of Truth and Metrics. Although there are many tasks that Donna must take to design this blockbuster product, including gathering customer input, competitive research, design approval, and prototype development and testing, there are usually two or three activities that are most critical to her ability and desire to complete the scenario. These \u201cmoments of truth\u201d are the show stoppers. If the customer can\u2019t easily do these few things, he or she will give up and abandon the scenario. Examples of moments of truth would be: \u201cI can\u2019t find what I need,\u201d or \u201cIt\u2019s too expensive,\u201d or \u201cIt takes too long.\u201d Each moment of truth is quantified whenever possible. For the above moments of truth, metrics can be applied such as: \u201cThere are at least three good material options that meet my need. It costs less than $1.50 to manufacture,\u201d and \u201cThe prototype is complete within a week of specification.\u201d\nWHAT\u2019S THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN CUSTOMER SCENARIOS AND INNOVATION?\nInnovation occurs naturally as a result of...\n***BEGIN ENDNOTES***\n1) \u201cThe Innovator\u2019s Solution,\u201d Clayton M. Christensen and Michael E. Raynor. (2003). Harvard Business School Press.\n2) The term \u201cconditions of satisfaction\u201d is borrowed from Fernando Flores\u2019 ontology. Fernando Flores described a very powerful canonical model for capturing all business interactions. This was documented in his seminal book, \u201cUnderstanding Computers and Cognition: A New Foundation for Design.\u201d (1986). Addison-Wesley, Reading, MA. The Flores model describes interactions as a four-step, closed-loop process. As applied in business, the first step is when the customer makes a request of a performer (I want\u2026) or the performer makes an offer to a customer (Do you want\u2026?). The second step is where the customer and performer negotiate until they read an agreement about the work to be done and clearly define the conditions of satisfaction. The third step is when the performer fulfills the agreement and reports completion. The final step is when the customer evaluates the work and either declares satisfaction or points out what remains to be done to fulfill the agreement.\n3) Author\u2019s conversation with Robert Fritz, February, 2005\n4) \u201cThe Path of Least Resistance for Managers,\u201d Robert Fritz.

        "title": "Magdalena\u2019s Brain - CyberPunkReview",
        "raw_content": "Directed by: Warren Amerman\nWritten by: Warren Amerman & Marty Langford\nMagdalena: Amy Shelton-White\nJim: Robert Weingartner\nArthur: Sanjiban Sellew\nAndrew: David Joseph\nOverview: Rarely do we find low-budget horror movies aspiring to be as intelligent and ambitious as Magdalena\u2019s Brain. Reportedly shot on a shoestring budget of $25 \u2013 $30K, Magdalena\u2019s Brain is a professional looking film with some interesting man-machine interface ideas. To limit costs, most of the movie takes place in a single warehouse setting. Unfortunately, this psychological horror is probably a bit too slow for most, and doesn\u2019t have enough gore for the average horror fan (although there are a few good freak-out scenes). But if you do stick with it, you get treated to a fascinating ending twist.\nThe Story: Former brain surgeon, Magdalena (played wonderfully by Amy Shelton-White) is now a reclusive alcoholic, living in a warehouse, who continually changes out shrinks in the hopes of gaining some semblance of peace. Four years after a tragic accident that left her brilliant husband-scientist, Arthur (Sanjiban Sellew) a quadriplegic and their research in tatters, Magdalena has persevered in the fleeting hopes that things will improve. Magdalena has designed an implant that allows computer-assisted dialogue with her husband. With communication restored, they have been able to continue their research in developing a synthetic brain that processes information 1000 time faster than humans. While the last four years have been slow going, recent advances have shown promise. Currently a blank slate, the organic, crystalline brain structure appears ready memories implanting. Andrew (David Joseph), a love struck former patient of Magdalena (he has inoperable brain cancer), seems to be an obvious test subject, as he will do anything to win over Magdalena.\nMagdalena reluctantly takes Arthur\u2019s advice and accepts the help of her creepy brother, Jim (Robert Weingartner), in working out how to kick-start the organic crystalline brain. First, they will download Arthur\u2019s memories into the crystalline structure, then insert the structure into Andrew\u2019s brain, and finally they will remove the tumor. As the story continues, Magdalena becomes more unstable. As everything comes to a head, it appears as if the same issues that led to the tragic accident four years ago might be recurring.\nThe Pacing: The pacing in Magdalena\u2019s Brain is problematic in places. The first half of the movie crawls at a snail\u2019s pace. In part it\u2019s due to the plot, but the editing decisions certainly contribute. Eventually, it picks up in the second half. The middle of the second half is really where Magdalena\u2019s Brain hits its stride, both in plot and pacing. The movement is brisk and the scenes really tie together well. Unfortunately, the ending action sequence comes across a series of jumbled scenes (again, I\u2019m blaming the editing here). Instead of the frantic chase, they would have been better served having their victim do the slow, bloody crawl, with Magdalena walking after while engaged in her personal struggle. The story would have worked the same either way, but the chosen course asks us to believe that a brain surgeon can\u2019t determine if someone is dead, and that a guy who just had a hole drilled in his brain can run for his life.\nThe Acting: If there\u2019s one decision that Director Warren Amerman made that other extremely low budget film projects should consider emulating was hiring a real actor/actress to play the lead role. Even with having only a $25,000 budget, a large chunk of that went toward hiring Lost-Angeles based actress, Amy Shelton-White. Had they not done this, Magdalena\u2019s Brain might have been a disaster. Shelton-White shines to the point that she single-handedly carries the project toward respectability, while adeptly displaying a wide range of talent and emotion. The script is problematic in places, the pacing is too slow, and the rest of the cast are role players at best, but in the end this film still works due to Shelton-White\u2019s performance. Being in virtually every scene, she seems to bring out the best in the rest of the cast. I say this because the rest of the cast suffers when in monologue type situations, but generally hold up well when interacting with Amy. David Joseph (Andrew) in particular looks really shaky in places where he\u2019s basically on his own, but gets lots better when interacting with Shelton-White. I haven\u2019t seen Shelton-White in anything else, but clearly she has the chops to go places. Other the lead, the only performance with mentioning is Robert Weingartner \u2013 the \u201clook\u201d he generates as a creepy side-kick really worked well.\nThe Cinematography: Often indie films that venture into the Science Fiction genre attempt to make up for low-budget effects with innovative cinematography and lighting. This definitely is the case for Magdalena\u2019s Brain. The use of lighting and shadow always seems to be in the forefront of Amerman\u2019s thinking when composing a shot. Some scenes, such as the bowling scene, really don\u2019t seem to have a place in the film from a story standpoint, but are probably left there due to the wonderful lighting and composition. Throughout the film Amerman is able to take a truly dingy set and come up with some wonderful shots. Also interesting is the lighting and sound choices for the flashbacks, although the horror shots have a cheesy low-budget feel to them. This, along with Shelton-White\u2019s performance is able to help get the viewer through some of the pacing and editing issues.\nProblems With Organic Brain Design: Magdalena\u2019s Brain uses a different approach toward creating AI. Instead of building a set of programs that mimic some trait of humanity (referred to as the \u201cbrute force method), they attempt to replicate the operations of a brain. Through the creation of a \u201ccrystalline lattice work in a gel suspension\u201d \u2013 the thought is to create a structure that supports the firing of electrodes in a way that allows it to build its own pathways and connections. This part of the techy \u201cmumbo jumbo\u201d was wonderfully thought out, sparking interesting thoughts on how one might go about connecting such a \u201cblank slate\u201d learning structure artificial senses so that it might interact with the outside environment. One can imagine that a structure such as this, once connected to sensory input could grow at an impressive rate\nUnfortunately, this is where their science falls apart. They \u201csolve\u201d the blank slate problem by simply \u201cdownloading\u201d Arthur\u2019s memories into the crystalline brain. Worse, the brain will apparently make its own pathways using a \u201cfirst-come, first-served\u201d method of storage. Not only does this approach smack of a \u201cmiracle occurs here\u201d scaffold, it also removes most of the innovativeness of the crystalline brain learning structure \u2013 as opposed to the pathways being organically grown based on ongoing input from its environment, they simply load a bundle of memories (which are apparently discrete chunks of data) up in sequential fashion. In doing so, they seem to be valuing the mass-storage view of the brain while discounting the interconnectedness of the pathways and concepts. This wouldn\u2019t be too much of a problem accept that their synthetic brain seems based on creating its own connections based on organic growth.\nIntegration of Synthetic Processing Structures with Human Brains: The most interesting cyberpunk thought in Magdalena\u2019s Brain involves integrating synthetic processing structures with human brains. In the movie, the integrated structure will already have a sentient presence in it (see the downloading memories part above). This is an interesting approach toward building a cyborg with synthetic thinking capabilities, and is a somewhat different approach from say, the Ghost in the Shell method of increasing human capacity. In the GITS Cyborg model, computers are essentially integrated into the human mind, almost as a huge memory bank. The action thinking and decision making largely remain with the human portion of the brain (there are also fully AI processors like the Puppet Master, but they aren\u2019t cyborgs). In the Magdalena\u2019s Brain approach toward cyborgs, one wonders what happens when the two brain structures (synthetic and natural) occupy the same body \u2013 will they work in harmony; will one dominate the other; or will a type of schizophrenia emerge? This is all the more interesting when transposed against the psychological struggle Magdalena is undergoing.\nIs Magdalena\u2019s Brain Cyberpunk? Magdalena\u2019s Brain is one of those movies that I think barely makes it into the genre. It takes place in the present, not near future (at least that we can tell), and has no connections to evil corporations. Nor does it have much in the way of cyberpunk visuals. It does however have negative impact of technology down in spades, and an interesting take on the fusion of man and machine. For these reasons, I\u2019ve decided to include it, but just barely.\nThe Bottom Line: Magdalena\u2019s Brain puts forward a terrific production considering the virtually non-existent budget. It\u2019s very difficult to do a convincing science fiction movie on that type of shoot. I would like discuss the psychological horror aspect of Magdalena\u2019s Brain, but won\u2019t for fear of ruining the ending. The high points are definitely Amy Shelton-White\u2019s performance, and a good number of some well-shot scenes. The audio FX are also worth mentioning, but the score doesn\u2019t always fit. That said, the pacing issues will significantly reduce the potential market for Magdalena\u2019s Brain, as most horror (and many cyberpunk) fans won\u2019t stick with it long enough to get to the fast-paced ending. While it certainly has its problems, Magdalena\u2019s Brain gets a passing grade. There is enough here for indie fans to give it a go, and enough of a jolt at the end that many horror fans will enjoy as well.\nThis post has been filed under Horror, Man-machine Interface, 6 Star Movies, Good low-budget movies, Cyberpunk movies from 2000 \u2013 current by SFAM.\nExterminator City \u00bb\nhttp://www.cyberpunkreview.com/horror/magdalenas-brain\">",

        "raw_content": "The Buenos Aires Pastoral Region (Argentina), where Cardinal Bergoglio used to work, encompasses the city of Buenos Aires and nearby cities, with a population of more than 13 million inhabitants. The Region is made up by more than 20 Bishops. Recently, they have sent their priests a document explaining their criteria on the potential access to sacraments of \u201cthe divorced who have entered a new union\u201d. What makes this message particularly interesting is that it was sent to Pope Francis, who answered it with a letter stating that \u201cthe document is very good and thoroughly specifies the meaning of chapter VIII of Amoris laetitia. There are no further interpretations\u201d. Therefore, the Bishops\u2019 letter makes it possible to unambiguously recognize the correct interpretation of the papal document regarding the true scope of chapter VIII. The Pope also asked the Bishops to help disseminate the entire document, which is an invitation to consolidate marriages.\nBuenos Aires Pastoral Region \u2014 Basic criteria for the implementation of chapter VIII of Amoris laetitia\nDear priests,\nwe have received with joy the exhortation Amoris laetitia, which invites us, above all, to encourage the growth of love between spouses and to motivate the youth to opt for marriage and a family. These are important issues that should never be disregarded or overshadowed by other matters. Francis has opened several doors in pastoral care for families and we are invited to leverage this time of mercy with a view to endorsing, as a pilgrim Church, the richness offered by the different chapters of this Apostolic Exhortation.\nWe will now focus on chapter VIII, since it refers to the \u201cguidelines of the bishop\u201d (300) in order to discern on the potential access to sacraments of the \u201cdivorced who have entered a new union\u201d. We deem it convenient, as Bishops of the same Pastoral Region, to agree on some basic criteria. We present them without prejudice to the authority that each Bishop has over his own Diocese to clarify, complete or restrict them.\n1) Firstly, we should remember that it is not advisable to speak of \u201cpermissions\u201d to have access to sacraments, but of a discernment process in the company of a pastor. It is a \u201cpersonal and pastoral discernment\u201d (300).\n2) In this path, the pastor should emphasize the fundamental proclamation, the kerygma, so as to foster or renew a personal encounter with the living Christ (cf. 58).\n3) Pastoral accompaniment is an exercise of the \u201cvia caritatis\u201d. It is an invitation to follow \u201cthe way of Jesus, the way of mercy and reinstatement\u201d (296). This itinerary requires the pastoral charity of the priest who receives the penitent, listens to him/her attentively and shows him/her the maternal face of the Church, while also accepting his/her righteous intention and good purpose to devote his/her whole life to the light of the Gospel and to practise charity (cf. 306).\n4) This path does not necessarily finish in the sacraments; it may also lead to other ways of achieving further integration into the life of the Church: greater presence in the community, participation in prayer or reflection groups, engagement in ecclesial services, etc. (cf. 299)\n5) Whenever feasible depending on the specific circumstances of a couple, especially when both partners are Christians walking the path of faith, a proposal may be made to resolve to live in continence. Amoris laetitia does not ignore the difficulties arising from this option (cf. footnote 329) and offers the possibility of having access to the sacrament of Reconciliation if the partners fail in this purpose (cf. footnote 364, recalling the teaching that Saint John Paul II sent to Cardinal W. Baum, dated 22 March, 1996).\n6) In more complex cases, and when a declaration of nullity has not been obtained, the above mentioned option may not, in fact, be feasible. Nonetheless, a path of discernment is still possible. If it is acknowledged that, in a concrete case, there are limitations that mitigate responsibility and culpability (cf. 301-302), especially when a person believes he/she would incur a subsequent fault by harming the children of the new union, Amoris laetitia offers the possibility of having access to the sacraments of Reconciliation and Eucharist (cf. footnotes 336 and 351). These sacraments, in turn, prepare the person to continue maturing and growing with the power of grace.\n7) However, it should not be understood that this possibility implies unlimited access to sacraments, or that all situations warrant such unlimited access. The proposal is to properly discern each case. For example, special care should be taken of \u201ca new union arising from a recent divorce\u201d or \u201cthe case of someone who has consistently failed in his obligations to the family\u201d (298). Also, when there is a sort of apology or ostentation of the person\u2019s situation \u201cas if it were part of the Christian ideal\u201d (297). In these difficult cases, we should be patient companions, and seek a path of reinstatement (cf. 297, 299).\n8) It is always important to guide people to stand before God with their conscience. A useful tool to do this is the \u201cexamination of con\u00adscience\u201d proposed by Amoris laetitia 300, specifically in relation to \u201chow did they act towards their children\u201d or the abandoned partner. Where there have been unresolved injustices, providing access to sacraments is particularly outrageous.\n9) It may be convenient for an eventual access to sacraments to take place in a discreet manner, especially if troublesome situations can be anticipated. At the same time, however, the community should be accompanied so that it may grow in its spirit of understanding and acceptance, without letting this situation create confusion about the teaching of the Church on the indissoluble marriage. The community is an instrument of mercy, which is \u201cunmerited, unconditional and gratuitous\u201d (297).\n10) Discernment is not closed, because it \u201cis dynamic; it must remain ever open to new stages of growth and to new decisions which can ena\u00adble the ideal to be more fully realized\u201d (303), according to the \u201claw of gradualness\u201d (295) and with confidence in the help of grace.\nAbove all, we are pastors. This is why we would like to welcome the following words of the Pope: \u201cI also encourage the Church\u2019s pastors to listen [to the faithful] with sensitivity and seren\u00adity, with a sincere desire to understand their plight and their point of view, in order to help them live better lives and to recognize their proper place in the Church\u201d (312).\nThe Bishops of the Region\nVatican City, 5 September, 2016\nTo the Bishops of the Buenos Aires Pastoral Region, Mons. Sergio Alfredo Fenoy, Delegate of the Region\nI received the document of the Buenos Aires Pastoral Region entitled \u201cBasic criteria for the implementation of chapter VIII of Amoris laetitia\u201d. Thank you very much for sending it, and let me congratulate you on the work that you have undertaken: a true example of accompaniment of priests\u2026and we all know how necessary it is for a bishop to stay close to his priests and for priests to stay close to their bishop. The bishop\u2019s \u201cneighboring\u201d neighbor is the priest, and the commandment to love your neighbor as yourself begins, for us bishops, precisely with our priests.\nThe document is very good and thoroughly specifies the meaning of chapter VIII of Amoris laetitia. There are no further interpretations. And I am confident that it will do much good.\nMay the Lord reward this effort of pastoral charity. And it is precisely pastoral charity that drives us to go out to meet the strayed, and, once they are found, to initiate a path of acceptance, discernment and reinstatement in the ecclesial community. We know this is tiring, it is \u201chand-to-hand\u201d pastoral care which cannot be fully addressed with programmatic, organizational or legal measures, even if these are also necessary. It simply entails accepting, accompanying, discerning, reinstating.\nOut of these four pastoral attitudes the least refined and practised is discernment; and I deem it urgent to include training in personal and community discernment in our Seminaries and Presbyteries. Finally, I would like to recall that Amoris laetitia resulted from the work and prayers of the whole Church, with the mediation of two Synods and the Pope. For this reason, I recommend a full catechesis of the Exhortation, which will, most certainly, contribute towards the growth, consolidation and holiness of the family. Once again, thank you for your work and let me encourage you to carry on studying and teaching Amoris laetitia in the different communities of the dioceses. Please, do not forget to pray and to remind others to pray for me.\nMay Jesus bless you and may the Holy Virgin take care of you.\nThis entry was posted in articolo and tagged #argentina, AmorisLaetitia, popefrancis.

I don\u2019t even know how I knew what ballet barre was without having taken class but I must\u2019ve seen pictures. So it all started there just at a little dance studio in Michigan. Ballet, tap, and jazz, and just grew from there.\nDid you go to school for dance?\nI went to University of Michigan and I majored in dance.\nI moved to New York pretty much two weeks after I graduated from college, which was a scary, strange experience. I remember the girl I was going to move here with. We came to New York on a couple days we had off right before we graduated. We found an apartment in about two days. Of course, we got scammed into something that was much more expensive than we could\u2019ve afford and it was tough like that for a few years.\nSo you were locked into a lease?\nI was locked into a year-long lease and we paid these huge broker fees-it was a three-bedroom. I had a very, very small room and I was paying probably triple what I could afford. But it was in a very safe neighborhood at the time--it was on the Upper East Side. It was, in a way, good for me to be with someone that I knew, and to be in a place where I felt really safe. And it was easy to commute and figure things out. Coming from dance major, I didn\u2019t know what kind of dance I wanted to do professionally. I had done mostly ballet and modern dance before I came here and so I just tried to find how to find auditions--I didn\u2019t know anything. I just auditioned for everything right away. I had the most success in musical theatre auditions so that ended up being a path that I took as opposed to doing like a modern dance company or something like that.\nIt must\u2019ve been scary that you didn\u2019t have an idea of what you wanted to do and you just came here.\nI knew I wanted to dance. I had known for a long time that I wanted to move to New York City after college. Like, \u2018I am going to do dance major in college and then I\u2019m going to go to New York and try to be a dancer,\u2019 because of some part of me, without really knowing or having done any research. Because at the time, when I was in high school--15 years ago, the internet wasn\u2019t the thing like it is now. That\u2019s just what I imagined--because that\u2019s what you saw on TV. That\u2019s what people do. They go to New York, and that\u2019s where most opportunity is. I mean, I knew that there are a lot of modern companies here, both established ones and small. I knew ballet companies here but I knew I wasn\u2019t really on that path to get into something as big as New York City Ballet, but that it was here, and there\u2019s a lot of young and new things happening here too. And I knew that there was Broadway here. But I didn\u2019t have any experience with that.\nThere was a tour of Movin\u2019 Out that was still going on at the time. And that particular show, the audition call just said dancers. it didn\u2019t say dancers who sing. The call just said dancers, because in that show, they don\u2019t sing. So I went to that audition and the casting directors ended up calling me in in the next week for a different tour. And I had to sing. I had sheet music for one song. And I was asked to stay and sing and I was just a mess. A complete mess. I cried after the audition. Brandon was here that summer when I first moved here for an internship, and he had just gotten out of work for that day. And I called him crying and we met. I remember getting a burrito and a margarita and just crying about it. Like all night. Because it was really scary. I mean the same thing happened--I auditioned for Radio City Rockettes and I continued to do that and realized what a difficult thing it actually is. To do and to get. And the first time I auditioned for that, I remembered calling my mom and my grandma and crying to them on the phone about how people say it\u2019s hard, and it really is. It really actually is. I can\u2019t believe it. I didn\u2019t really realize that it would be as hard as people say it is until I experienced that first major rejection. Now it\u2019s eight years later, and I\u2019m still here.\nYou said the first singing call that you had was super scary. So I guess singing wasn\u2019t something that you expected to do or wanted to do?\nI think about this a lot now that I\u2019ve come so far with it. One of my dance teachers said to us one time. She was singing along with our song, and she wasn\u2019t that great of a singer. She said, \u201cOh I\u2019m a terrible singer. It doesn\u2019t matter though. That\u2019s why I am a dancer.\u201d And decades ago, 70\u2019s, 80\u2019s, even in the 90\u2019s, dancers weren\u2019t really expected to sing, at least not really well because they would hire separate singers and dancers. So, I grew up with teachers who had that mentality, even when I was in college. I remember my advisor--and I mean these teachers were great. I learned a lot from them. But I remember my college advisor saying, \u201cOh, you need to go to at least one Broadway cattle call as a dancer just to have that experience.\u201d And she was like, \u201cI am not worried about you booking work as a dancer. I am sure that you\u2019ll get commercial stuff.\u201d But they didn\u2019t know how that world had changed since they experienced it in maybe the 80\u2019s and early 90\u2019s. And that a lot more is expected of dancers than just having technique. So I learned a lot. For me, it took a while. I am a late bloomer. But I kept at it and I slowly figured out what worked--to make money, so I can stay at my overpriced apartment.\nHow did you get through that difficult time?\nWhen I first got here, things were really crazy. After that singing experience, which probably really wasn\u2019t that bad, the casting director told me to get a vocal coach and to work on my song. So I started taking voice lessons, which was just another expense. But it was that kind of thing where I\u2019m spending this much money it takes me entire night working at the restaurant as a hostess, which is the first thing that I got. To be able to pay for voice lessons, and that\u2019s before I can have enough money for rent or food. It was really important to me that I learned and that I succeed with it. But I had a huge wall, a barrier of feeling behind. And I let that get to me for a while. But eventually, now 8 years later, everything is fine. Everyone still has fears of auditioning and whatnot. But it\u2019s better.\nTo survive at first, I worked at a restaurant that was on my corner. Right at my safe little area. I didn\u2019t know how to waitress; I didn\u2019t know how to work at a restaurant. Someone ordered a Drambuie and I went to another waitress and said, \u201cWhat\u2019s a grand buoy?\u201d I\u2019m trying to be a dancer--I don\u2019t know what kind of dancer I want to be, and I also have to learn like 800 kinds of beers that are common here in New York that no one drinks in Michigan. And I was 22, so I had only drank like five kinds of beers anyway. It\u2019s exactly like a cookie-cutter story of a girl from the midwest, who had no idea about anything, coming here.\nIt\u2019s like Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt.\nPretty much. And honestly, I didn\u2019t have much gumption as her, but I had enough to make it. I found stability in certain things. I worked at a yoga studio. That was good. That kept me calm, and I was getting free classes there so I could stay in shape. And then I\u2019ve had Brandon the whole time. Our relationship luckily started right at the end of college, like six weeks before we graduated. And he\u2019s always been extremely supportive. Of course my parents have been supportive too, but to have someone else out of family really believing in me enough, I think that\u2019s a huge part of why I was able to get through that really hard time. And why I am now able to continue.\nCould you tell me little bit more about your relationship with Brandon?\nTo layer on the story, we were long distance for the first four years that I was here. He was here in the summers for internships and he was in pharmacy school back in Michigan. He had already gotten into that and signed up for it before we even started dating. So we made that work, which seems crazy now, but we made that work. And then past four years, he was lucky enough to get his first job in Brooklyn, so he came here. That was really lucky, because in his residency, he had to match. Those cards all fell into place, which--you know, everybody wants everything at the same time, but I look back and I feel grateful for the way that things have happened. For some people, it might be kind of slow pace, but that\u2019s what has worked better for me. If I had gotten tons of work, and had a crazy life, like touring or being on cruise ships and stuff like that right away when I came here, I think that the relationship that I have with Brandon would have suffered. Can\u2019t say for sure, but the way that things have been has worked out.\nBrandon and Maureen have been happily married since last August.\nI got to do a show in Brooklyn. It\u2019s a theatre company that I\u2019ve worked for before and they needed a replacement, so I did that. January until now, audition crazy central land. I\u2019m going to be doing a show in Long Island. May 5th, I start rehearsals then it opens Memorial Day weekend and it\u2019s just until June 6th. It\u2019s a real quick one. And then I\u2019m on hold--on standby--for the next show. So that\u2019s like a maybe. So the craziness of all of this is I find out everything at the last minute.\nI am at the point where I really want to take my career to the next level. I\u2019m working my way towards getting my equity card. I\u2019ll be about half way there after I do my next contract as far as points accruing. The main goal is to be on Broadway. I also want to be a Radio City Rockette. That was my first audition that I came to the city to do. I learned how difficult that style was for me. And I\u2019ve been working on it since then. Last year, I got to the end, to the finals that I was on standby. This year, crazy things are happening with that, and they\u2019re not having the open call in the spring, so we\u2019ll see. In my mind, I know my age, I know what the number is. But I have to forget that and just think about how I feel--how strong do I feel. Physically. Mentally. And I feel stronger than I ever have. Especially compared to when I was 22. It\u2019s probably not going to be this year--probably nobody new is getting it this year, but next year, I\u2019ll be ready. Especially if they decide to open a new tour.\nHave you auditioned for the Rockettes every year?\nAlmost. There have been couple times where I was away doing shows that I didn\u2019t audition. They have two a year. I tried to count it once, but I don\u2019t like to think of numbers anymore. I\u2019ve gone in a lot. There\u2019s quite a few times where I went in just for the heck of it, like any old audition without really thinking, \u201cThis is different from most of the musicals I auditioned for.\u201d Couple years ago when I had that, what they do is completely different from what I\u2019ve done in shows. So I started really watching their videos and taking the kind of classes that the actual Rockettes take. I\u2019ve had some lessons with the coach in that particular style. That helped me to get to the end last year. This year, I don\u2019t know. It\u2019s the business. You never know. At the end of the day, with all of this art at the commercial side of it, the business side of it, is the bottomline. If the company decides something isn\u2019t making enough money, then you know, it\u2019s their decision. Whether or not they\u2019re going to keep it, or how big of a cast they\u2019re going to have. You have to not take those things personally.\nWhere do you see yourself after finishing performing?\nI am still kind of in dream world about the more distant future. I know for sure that I want to teach. I\u2019ve always known that I want to teach. If I hadn\u2019t been a dancer, I probably would\u2019ve been a school teacher. Elementary. Like those little guys over there. Because, I don\u2019t know, I think that the more I learn from what I\u2019m doing from this career, the more that I can give. Whether that ends up being teaching children. I know for sure I\u2019d like to be a yoga teacher. Haven\u2019t done that yet, because timing hasn\u2019t worked out for training and things. But I do enjoy teaching, so for sure I will be doing that in the future. I am not sure if I\u2019ll ever really stop dancing. I might be like those YouTube videos you see of 90 year old woman boogieing down. And you know, Chita Rivera is still performing. I feel like I am a late bloomer and I may actually hit my peak at the time when most people retire. So we\u2019ll see.\nIt\u2019s kind of a weird thing but my favorite thing about living here is that I don\u2019t have to drive. I am not really a very good driver. And I like that when I\u2019m tired at the end of the day, you do have to walk and whatever, but when you\u2019re in the subway, you sit, and if you fall asleep, you won\u2019t die. And then of course all the obvious things. It\u2019s amazing and there are so many fun things to do. When it\u2019s bad, it\u2019s really bad, and when it\u2019s great, it\u2019s really great. And there\u2019s just so much opportunity here. Especially as a professional dancer. It\u2019s like the place to be.\nIs there anything else that you\u2019d like to share with the world?\nI think I went on enough tangents that I covered just about everything that I have to say about dancing in the city. If anyone--if you have even the smallest desire to come here, no matter where you are coming from, you should do it. Different things are right for different people. Some people say you have to give it a year, give it two years. But if you\u2019re here for three months and you really hate it, it\u2019s okay to hate it and leave. And for other people, like me, it can take maybe four or five years to really feel like, \u2018Yes I\u2019ve made the right decision.\u2019\n\u2190 Josephine Kelly, 110 Street / Cathedral Parkway, 1Courtney Rottenberger, 7 Avenue Station, B-Q \u2192",

        "title": "Defining Database Performance - Database Trends and Applications",
        "raw_content": "Defining Database Performance\nIf you are a DBA, or a database performance analyst, chances are that you deal with performance-related issues regarding your database systems every day of the week. But have you ever stopped for a moment and tried to define what you mean when you say \"database performance\"? Doing so can be a worthwhile exercise, if only to organize your thoughts on the matter.\nThink about it; don't we need a firm definition of database performance before we can attempt to manage the performance of our databases?\nIt can be useful to think about database performance using the familiar concepts of supply and demand. Users demand information from the DBMS. The DBMS supplies information to those requesting it. The rate at which the DBMS supplies the demand for information can be loosely thought of as \"database performance.\" But let's dive a little deeper. There are five factors that influence database performance: workload, throughput, resources, optimization, and contention.\nThe workload that is requested of the DBMS defines the demand. It is a combination of online transactions, batch jobs, ad hoc queries, business intelligence queries and analysis, utilities, and system commands directed through the DBMS at any given time. Workload can fluctuate drastically from day to day, hour to hour, minute to minute, and yes, even second to second. Sometimes workload can be predicted (such as heavy month-end processing of payroll, or very light access after 7 pm, when most users have left for the day), but at other times it is unpredictable. The overall workload can have a major impact on database performance.\nThroughput defines the overall capability of the computer to process data. It is a composite of I/O speed, CPU speed, parallel capabilities of the machine, and the efficiency of the operating system and system software. And don't just base your throughput assumptions on hardware capacity figures (e.g., MHz for Wintel boxes, MSUs and MIPS for mainframes). Perhaps you have installed hard or soft capping on your box, which can impact throughput. And don't forget about those specialty processors (zIIPs and zAAPs) if you are a mainframe DBA.\nThe hardware and software tools at the disposal of the system are known as the resources of the system. Examples include memory (such as that allocated to buffer pools or address spaces), disk, cache controllers, and microcode.\nThe fourth defining element of database performance is optimization. All types of systems can be optimized, but relational database systems are unique in that query optimization is primarily accomplished internal to the DBMS. Ensuring that you have provided up-to-date and accurate database statistics for the query optimizer is of the utmost importance in achieving optimal SQL queries. Keep in mind, though, that there are other factors that need to be optimized (database parameters, system parameters, etc.) to enable the relational optimizer to create the most efficient access paths. And there are optimization aspects that are outside the scope and control of the relational optimizer, too, such as efficient script coding, proper application design, coding efficient utility options, and so on.\nWhen the demand (workload) for a particular resource is high, contention can result. Contention is the condition in which two or more components of the workload are attempting to use a single resource in a conflicting way (for example, dual updates to the same piece of data). When one program tries to read data that is in the process of being changed by another, the DBMS must prohibit access until the modification is complete in order to ensure data integrity. The DBMS uses a locking mechanism to enable multiple, concurrent users to access and modify data in the database. Using locks the DBMS automatically guarantees the integrity of data. The DBMS locking strategies permit multiple users from multiple environments to access and modify data in the database at the same time. As contention increases, locking ensues and throughput decreases.\nSo - putting all of these things together: database performance can be defined as the optimization of resource use to increase throughput and minimize contention, enabling the largest possible workload to be processed.\nIn addition, database applications regularly communicate with other system software, which must also be factored into performance planning. Many factors influence not only the performance of the DBMS and applications accessing its databases, but also the performance of the other system components (e.g., transactions processor, network software, application servers, etc.)\nUnderstanding what database performance is must be a prerequisite for properly assuring the efficiency of your database environment. With a sound definition in hand, managing database performance becomes an achievable task.",

        "raw_content": "May 17, 2004 \u0097 Two randomized trials reported in the May 18 issue of the Annals of Internal Medicine further support the efficacy of a low-carbohydrate diet. A six-month trial showed higher participation and greater weight loss, and a 12-month study showed similar weight loss but better lipid profile than with a conventional diet. The editorialist uses findings from both studies to advise physicians and patients.\n\"This diet can be quite powerful. We found that the low-carb diet was more effective for weight loss,\" lead author Will Yancy, MD, from Duke University Medical Center and the Veterans Affairs Medical Center in Durham, North Carolina, says in a news release. \"We also found cholesterol levels seemed to improve more on a low-carb diet compared to a low-fat diet.\"\nIn this study, which is the first randomized controlled trial of an Atkins-style diet, 120 study participants were assigned to a low-carbohydrate, high-protein diet or a low-fat, low-cholesterol, low-calorie diet.\nThe low-carbohydrate group (<20 g/day) was allowed daily unlimited calories, animal foods (meat, fowl, fish, and shellfish), and eggs, as well as 4 oz of hard cheese, two cups of salad vegetables (lettuce, spinach, or celery) and one cup of low-carbohydrate vegetables (broccoli, cauliflower, or squash). They also received daily nutritional supplements including a multivitamin, essential oils, an Atkins diet formulation, and chromium picolinate.\nThe low-fat, low-cholesterol, low-calorie group received less than 30% of daily caloric intake from fat, less than 10% of calories from saturated fat, and less than 300 mg cholesterol daily. They were advised to restrict daily calories by 500 to 1,000 calories less than their maintenance diet.\nAt study entry, all subjects were between 18 and 65 years of age and in generally good health, with a body mass index (BMI) between 30 and 60, and a total cholesterol level greater than 200 mg/dL. None had dieted or used weight loss medications in the previous six months. All subjects were encouraged to exercise 30 minutes at least three times per week and had regular group meetings at an outpatient research clinic for six months.\nThe study was completed by 76% of participants in the low-carbohydrate diet group and by 57% of participants in the low-fat diet group (P = .02). At six months, weight loss was -12.9% in the low-carbohydrate diet group and -6.7% in the low-fat diet group (P < .001).\nIn both groups, loss of fat mass (change, -9.4 kg with the low-carbohydrate diet vs. -4.8 kg with the low-fat diet) was greater than loss of fat-free mass (change, -3.3 kg vs. -2.4 kg, respectively). Compared with the low-fat diet group, the low-carbohydrate diet group had greater decreases in serum triglyceride levels (change, -0.84 mmol/L vs. -0.31 mmol/L [-74.2 mg/dL vs. -27.9 mg/dL]; P = .004) and greater increases in high-density lipoprotein [HDL] cholesterol levels (0.14 mmol/L vs. -0.04 mmol/L [5.5 mg/dL vs. -1.6 mg/dL]; P < .001).\nChanges in low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol level were not significantly different between groups (0.04 mmol/L [1.6 mg/dL] with the low-carbohydrate diet and -0.19 mmol/L [-7.4 mg/dL with the low-fat diet; P = .2). However, participants in the low-carbohydrate diet group had more minor adverse effects, such as constipation and headaches, than did patients in the low-fat diet group.\nStudy limitations include inability to distinguish effects of the low-carbohydrate diet and those of the nutritional supplements provided only to that group, and use of healthy participants followed for only 24 weeks, limiting generalizability of the study results.\nThe authors are currently testing whether a low-carbohydrate diet can improve glycemic control in diabetes. However, they warn that patients with medical conditions such as diabetes and hypertension or who use diuretics should not begin a low-carbohydrate diet without close medical supervision, because the diet affects hydration and blood glucose levels. Nor do they recommend an Atkins-type diet for individuals attempting to lose weight for the first time.\n\"Over six months the diet appears relatively safe, but we need to study the safety for longer durations,\" Dr. Yancy says, noting potential long-term health risks including elevations in LDL cholesterol, bone loss, or kidney stones.\nThe Robert C. Atkins Foundation funded this research. The study authors have no financial interest in Atkins Nutritionals, Inc. In the second study, by Linda Stern, MD, from the Philadelphia Veterans Affairs Medical Center in Pennsylvania, and colleagues, 132 obese adults were randomized to receive counseling to either restrict carbohydrate intake to less than 30 g per day (low-carbohydrate diet) or to restrict caloric intake by 500 calories per day with less than 30% of calories from fat (conventional diet). At baseline, BMI was at least 35 kg/m2, and 83% of participants had diabetes or metabolic syndrome.\nBy one year, mean weight change was -5.1 \u00b1 8.7 kg in the low-carbohydrate diet group and -3.1 \u00b1 8.4 kg in the conventional diet group (difference, -1.9 kg; 95% confidence interval [CI], -4.9 to 1.0 kg; P = .20). The low-carbohydrate diet group fared better in terms of greater decrease in triglyceride levels (P = .044) and less decrease in HDL cholesterol levels (P = .025).\nIn the subgroup of 54 persons with diabetes, hemoglobin A1c levels improved more with the low-carbohydrate diet, but the difference was not statistically significant in sensitivity analyses. Both groups had similar changes in other lipids and in insulin sensitivity.\nStudy limitations include high dropout rate of 34% and suboptimal dietary adherence.\n\"Despite modest overall weight loss in both diet groups, assignment to the low-carbohydrate group had a direct and more favorable effect on triglyceride level, HDL cholesterol level, and glycemic control in the smaller subgroup of patients with diabetes,\" the authors write. \"These findings give further evidence that restriction of carbohydrates in obese persons, who may be overconsuming carbohydrates at baseline, may have favorable metabolic effects. Caution is still needed, however, in recommending a low-carbohydrate diet, as important concerns remain.\"\nThe Veterans Affairs Healthcare Network supported this study. The authors report no potential financial conflicts of interest.\n\"We can no longer dismiss very-low-carbohydrate diets,\" Walter C. Willett, MD, DrPH, from the Harvard School of Public Health in Boston, Massachusetts, writes in an accompanying editorial.\n\"We can encourage overweight patients to experiment with various methods for weight control, including reduced-carbohydrate diets, as long as they emphasize healthy sources of fat and protein and incorporate regular physical activity,\" he concludes. \"Patients should focus on finding ways to eat that they can maintain indefinitely rather than seeking diets that promote rapid weight loss. For many patients, the roll will have little role.\"\nAnn Intern Med. 2004;140:769-777, 778-785, 836-837",

        "raw_content": "Discus Rewind > News > E-Ink Traffic Signs Appear in Sydney\nNowadays, the old adage, \u201csafety first\u201d is more important than ever, and advancements in technology and revisions in local legislation are reflecting that, with self-parking cars, and enforcement of law regarding car signage in Sydney. Now another revolution for safety is slated to appear in the city.\nAutomated vehicles equipped with advanced sensors and software are appearing, but other developments in transportation technology are showing up too: like brand new technology in good, old-fashioned traffic signs.\nThe Australian RMS (Road and Maritime Services), the NSW government agency tasked with ensuring transportation safety in both terrestrial and maritime environments and enforcing laws regarding such, such as those regarding car signage in Sydney , have put up new traffic signs which utilize both solar power and e-ink tech, in the city; the world\u2019s first.\nThe signs take advantage of the same technology found in modern devices, such as e-book readers, tablets, smartphones, etc. Designed with ease of reading in mind, the signs are clear in the light of daytime and lit up for the darker, nighttime conditions. A product of Visionect, the e-ink signs also allow for remote updating. This allows for messages transmission via wireless signals, which affords the signs the ability to update in real time in order to provide accurate information on the road, or in parking locations.\nThe signs are also solar-powered, meaning that they are self-sustaining and efficient. They are designed to survive, maintaining function in the heat of the Australian sun, and will continue to function in the case of power outages.\nAccording the Visionect head of product development, the signs are design to be managed via a server software tasked with activating them for certain times in the day when the contents of the signs will be edited with the use of 3G technology. Outside of those times, he says, the traffic signs utilize minimal energy and power.\nThe new signs could also help lower costs regarding the placement of temporary signage, such as those found in renovations, roadwork, or special occasions.\nThe first batched appeared in the Sydney streets, numbering at fifteen. The second group is planned to release around Moore Park.",

The curator of the photo contest is underwater photographer Ellen Cuylaerts. Read more about them below.\nThe winning pictures will be recognized at the United Nations\u2019 event marking World Oceans Day 2018 on June 8. Read more about the competition and the contest rules here.\nWORLD OCEANS DAY 2018 PHOTO COMPETITION JUDGES\nLia Barrett\nLia Barrett is a Korean-born, North Carolina-raised professional underwater photographer. After completing university at Parsons School of Design in New York in 2007, Lia has been on a continual pursuit of travel and adventure. From her deep-sea work in a homemade submarine off of Roat\u00e1n, Honduras, to connecting humans to the ocean through freediving imagery, Lia has embraced the underwater world as her ultimate sanctuary.\nLia is the Photo Editor of Dive Photo Guide, the definitive source for underwater photography. She is also the co-founder and Creative Director of Prawno Apparel, an ocean-minded apparel company that draws designs directly from Lia\u2019s photographs. Her work has been featured in numerous newspapers, magazines, and media outlets including the New York Times, BBC, CNN, Time, Outside, O magazine, ESPN, Playboy, The Times (UK), Men\u2019s Journal and 60 Minutes. She has sat on several underwater photography judging panels, and finds great pleasure in encouraging other photographers to grow and develop their craft. You can see her TEDx talk, \u201cHuman Connection for Ocean Protection\u201d here.\nAdriana Basques\nAdriana Basques is a former IBM executive turned professional underwater photographer whose creative and award-winning imagery is devoted to bringing awareness and encouraging environmental conservation. Born in Brazil, Adriana was hooked on scuba diving during her first experience back in 1996 in the Caribbean. She finally combined her love for the underwater world with photography in 2008, when she purchased her first DSLR camera.\nIn 2010, she took a sabbatical from IBM and moved to California, focusing her interest on photography and diving. Three years later, the corporate life had lost its appeal, and she began to focus full time on nature and wildlife photography.\nAdriana\u2019s work has been featured in the Smithsonian Natural History Museum, National Geographic magazine, CNN, The Wall Street Journal, and numerous other magazines, calendars and books. Adriana also leads exclusive trips to remote and exotic locations around the world.\nAfter photography studies at the Queensland College of Art and work in darkrooms and commercial studios, Darren Jew spent eight years as photographer for the Queensland Parks and Wildlife Service, where his photographic skill found harmony with his profound love of nature. The last two decades have seen Darren pursue his passion for capturing and sharing the natural world, producing sought-after nature, travel and scientific images both above and below the water; selling fine art prints; undertaking magazine commissions; and leading photo tours to the world\u2019s great wildlife, landscape and marine destinations.\nDarren is the author of three books: Australia: Reef, Rainforest, Red Heart; Far and Wild: South; and the soon-to-be-released Underwater Australia. His images regularly appear in many magazines and books, he exhibits around Australia, and his work is used by conservation organizations worldwide. You can see him at work in the Netflix documentary series \u201cTales by Light\u201d. Darren\u2019s unique vision has seen him named Canon/AIPP Australian Science, Environment and Nature Photographer of the Year in 2007, 2009, 2010, 2012 and 2013.\nJerome Kim\nBorn and raised in Korea, Jerome Kim has been based in the Philippines for the last 20 years. He considers the Philippines his favorite dive spot in the whole Coral Triangle because of the great underwater photo opportunities. He has endeavored to translate his skills as a professional architect into designing the perfect shot underwater, and he has won more than 60 awards in local and international underwater competitions.\nJerome\u2019s work has been published in more than 40 magazines and newspapers, including the South China Morning Post (HK); Washington Post, Divers Alert (US); Manila Bulletin, Inquirer (Philippines); and Chosun, Dongah (Korea). He has also been invited as a VIP speaker to several prestigious dive shows, and has served on the judging panels of various competitions, including Asia UW Photo Challenge by EZDIVE, Dragon Cup by UWPIXEL, Okinawa Master Class by Okinawa Tourism, Green Island UW Competition by Taiwan Tourism, and others. He has co-organized the Anilao UW Photo Competition with the Philippine Department of Tourism for the last three years, and he has also organized the Okinawa Master Class and Underwater Dream Tour.\nDavid Salvatori began shooting underwater in 2008. His main current interest is around nature photography and conservation issues, to which he devotes his travels around the world. As an amateur underwater photographer, David spends all of his free time planning and realizing photographic expeditions to raise awareness about some of the most endangered species on the planet. He also enjoys writing articles about his trips and collaborates with various prestigious international underwater magazines.\nOver the past decade, David has received a number of awards in some of the most important international underwater photography and nature photography competitions. In 2015, he published his first photographic book, Reflections from the Past, documenting his personal journey around Italy\u2019s Tirino Valley and the fascinating submerged ruins of Capo D\u2019Acqua Lake.\nIndra Swari W\nFor Indra Swari W, the ocean holds magnificent power, yet it gives her a sense of calmness that allows her to interact with her subjects in their environment. Throughout her 15 years of underwater photography, she has tried to capture the beauty of the marine environment in the treasure of colours offered by the creatures that inhabit the blue water. In so doing, it is her hope that her pictures share not just the beauty of this world, but through reflecting the natural behaviour of these marine creatures, raise awareness about the fragility of this environment.\nIndra\u2019s passion for creatures both large and small comes through in the pictures she captures, truly bringing them and their world to life for us all to appreciate and enjoy. Indra\u2019s passion for wildlife, both above and below the waterline, was ignited at an early age by nature documentary maker Sir David Attenborough, who she finally got to meet in person when she won the underwater category of the BBC/Natural History Museum Wildlife Photographer of the Year competition.\nWORLD OCEANS DAY 2018 PHOTO COMPETITION CURATOR\nEllen Cuylaerts studied history in Belgium and received her master\u2019s degree in modern history and education. She relocated from Belgium to the Cayman Islands in 2009, and home-schooled her two gifted teenagers. She took up scuba diving in 2011, quickly becoming a Master Scuba Diver, and decided to combine her childhood passion for photography with the wonders of the underwater world.\nAfter diving a few months, she signed up for a workshop and decided to use the skills she had learned to spread awareness and contribute to conservation and preservation of the fragile marine environment. Her principal concerns are the degradation of the oceans through pollution, overfishing, shark finning, and the slaughter of dolphins and whales.\nEllen\u2019s work can be seen in exhibitions around the world, and she has received numerous awards for her pictures, including coming first and second in 2014 and 2015, respectively, in two categories of the World Oceans Day Photo Competition. A member of the Ocean Artists Society since 2014, she is also a Fellow of the Explorers Club.",

        "raw_content": "A Walking Tour of Montgomery, Alabama (Look Up, America!)\nMost town founders who settled America had grand dreams for the ventures they were starting; most would be unrealized. Andrew Dexter was no different. In 1816, after he purchased a chunk of Mississippi Territorial land on the south bank of the Alabama River in and started laying out building plots he gave his new town the name of New Philadelphia, echoing the nation\u2019s first capital city. So sure was Dexter that his town would one day be the seat of a new state government that he reserved a plot of land up on top of Goat Hill for a capitol building. Dexter\u2019s wasn\u2019t even the only town in the area. Right next door was a settlement of Georgians led by General John Scott called East Alabama.\nThe two fledgling towns bickered as they grew and finally on December 3, 1819, eleven days before Alabama became a state, the two towns merged and called themselves Montgomery. Mind you, the town didn\u2019t simply take its name for Montgomery County, which had been formed three years earlier and named in honor of Major Lemuel Purnell Montgomery, who was fighting with Andrew Jackson in the wars with the Creek Indians and was killed in 1814 at the battle of Horseshoe Bend. No, the town of Montgomery would claim as its namesake General Richard Montgomery, Irish born and raised and killed 1275 miles away while attacking the British fortress in Quebec, Canada in the early days of the American Revolution.\nAndrew Dexter\u2019s dream would be realized in 1846 when the Alabama state capital was shifted from Tuscaloosa to Montgomery and a beautiful Greek Revival capitol building was erected on Goat Hill. Fifteen years later Dexter\u2019s Goat Hill would become the capital of a country when the Confederate States of America was formed here and Montgomery was its first capital city. Andrew Dexter would not be around to see any of this, however. The size of his dreams always outstripped his ability to execute them. A native Rhode Islander, he started a bank whose great success urned out to be fraudulent sending him to Canada to escape debtor\u2019s prison. When he purchased the land that would become Montgomery he didn\u2019t have the cash and had to borrow the money. His time in the town he founded was aswirl in debts and lawsuits and Dexter would eventually be arrested for debt in Mobile and die in prison there in 1837 at the age of 58.\nHis town followed a more prosperous trajectory. Montgomery was not like some state capitals where the business of the town is government. The railroad showed up early and Montgomery became a busy shipping point for cotton and livestock and dairy products. A large lumber mill was established in 1890 and the city\u2019s industrial base quickly widened with garment factories and fertilizer plants and wholesale food concerns.\nOnly six state capitals are bigger, land area-speaking, than Montgomery and to get our explorations under way we will start at the Alabama River\u2019s edge...\nThe Montgomery & West Point railroad sent the first trains chugging into Montgomery in the early 1840s. Two small two-story frame buildings handled the town\u2019s train passengers until 1898 when the Louisville and Nashville Railroad built this grand Romanesque-flavored brick and limestone station. Montgomery architect Benjamin Bosworth Smith provided the plans for picturesque block-long station. \u201cUnion\u201d Station also served passenger trains of Atlantic Coast Line, Western Railway of Alabama, Seaboard Air Line, Central of Georgia, and Gulf, Mobile and Ohio Railroad. The station had six tracks under a 600 foot shed. Train service to Montgomery ended in 1979; there was a brief Amtrak revival but Union Station was not used. Union Station still stands however, including the train shed, and houses businesses and the visitor center.\nFACING UNION STATION TURN RIGHT AND WALK OVER TO THE TUNNEL AT THE END OF THE BUILDING. WALK THROUGH THE TUNNEL TO THE EDGE OF THE ALABAMA RIVER.\nRiverfront Park was developed in the 1970s with such attractions as the Riverwalk Ampitheater and the Harriot II, a paddlewheeler that plies the Alabama River.\nWHEN YOU ARE THROUGH EXPLORING RIVERFRONT PARK WALK BACK OUT THROUGH THE TUNNEL AND WALK STRAIGHT ON COMMERCE STREET.\nHobble Building\nHenry Martin Hobbie constructed this expansive four-story red brick building in 1903 for his wholesale grocery. The structure borrows from several popular architectural styles, especially the fanciful broad arched entrance and arched fourth story windows. Look up over the entrance to see the decorative \u201cH\u201d in the keystone and recessed lamp stanchions. Henry Jr. took over the grocery business and also established the Hobbie Elevator Company, Hobbie Motor Company and Montgomery Buick company when he wasn\u2019t tending to his duties as president of the Fourth National Bank of Montgomery. Behind the Hobbie Building, overlooking the Alabama River, are elevators from the Hobbie Elevator Company which have been adapted for use as a police station.\nLook up to see some of Montgomery\u2019s finest brickwork. The commercial building was restored in 1982.\nSteiner-Lobman Building\n172 Commerce Street at Tallapoosa Street\nNathan Lobman and Louis Steiner went into business together in 1871 peddling goods to small merchants in Pine Apple. In 1891 the partners moved up to Montgomery and set up shop in this highly decorative pink and white corner store. In 1896, in addition to the company\u2019s wholesale business, the firm began the manufacturing of the Polly brand of work clothes. Look up to see statues on the roof line and a water cistern. The casket-shaped cistern has spawned legends through the years that someone is buried up there. Steiner-Lobman Dry Goods Company was a fixture here until 1969 when the company was sold to an investment group and closed several years later.\nIn 1937 Lillie Williams moved her family to Montgomery and opened a boarding house. That year her 14-year old son Hiram King Williams formed a band called the Drifting Cowboys, won a talent show at the Empire Theater and landed a spot on a local radio station, WSFA. Montgomery would be the home base for Hank Williams until he died at the age of 29 on the first day of 1953. In that time Williams would record 35 Top 10 singles and 11 that topped the Country & Western charts. The museum, which owns the 1952 baby blue Cadillac in which the country legend died among its extensive collection, opened in 1999.\nWhen the Greystone Hotel opened in 1928 it was the height of elegance for travelers to Montgomery, advertising 150 rooms with baths, circulating ice water, fans and bed lamps. The ten-story building was crafted in a Beaux Arts style. The Greystone went the way of many of its grand downtown hotel cousins and went out of business. The neon sign came down off the roof and the building did duty as a bank before re-emerging as Hampton Inn guest house.\nFirst National Bank of Montgomery\nDexter Avenue at Commerce Street\nThis was Montgomery\u2019s first skyscraper when it was completed in 1907 although its reign as the town\u2019s tallest building lasted a few scant years. The tower was originally constructed in the classic Chicago style that fashioned high-rise buildings in the image of a classical Greek column with a definitive base (the oversized ground floors), a shaft (the unadorned center stories) and a capital (the ornate cornice). Here most of that decoration was stripped away in a 1978 renovation. The bank\u2019s terra cotta lion heads that stared down on the city from the cornice for 70 years were saved, however, and are now displayed in a small plaza on the the north side of the building.\nBEAR LEFT IN THE SQUARE AND WALK CLOCKWISE AROUND.\nCentral Bank Building\nDexter and Court Street\nIn the middle of the 19th century building facades crafted from cast iron enjoyed a run of popularity in big cities for commercial structures. A cheaper and easier alternative to stone and masonry, the metal fronts could be cast in highly decorative designs. This was the first \u201ciron Front\u201d building in Alabama, designed by Philadelphia architect Stephen Decatur Button for William Knox, president of Central Bank of Alabama in 1856. The iron was cast in a Renaissance Revival style to emulate the Venetian palaces of the 16th century.Central Bank, which generously supported the Confederacy, was bankrupt at the end of the Civil War. The building, which once sported a two-story gallery, was restored for the Arts Council of Alabama in 1985. The iconic four-faced street clock out front was installed here in 1930 by Klein & Son Jewelers who had purchased the building in 1923. Leo Klein, a Hungarian immigrant, sold his first jewels in Montgomery in 1893 in a modest 300 square-foot store. Klein & Son moved to the suburbs in 1977 and returned the clock in 2009. In 1886, Montgomery became the first city in the Western Hemisphere to convert an entire street railway system running past here to electricity. The Capital City Street Railway Co operated for 50 years before the final trolley car was retired in an appreciative ceremony, leaving public transportation to buses.\nWinter Building\n2 Dexter Street at Court Square\nThe core of this building was constructed in 1841 by Georgia native John Gano Winter to take deposits for his St. Mary\u2019s Bank. On April 11, 1861, Leroy Pope Walker, the Confederate Secretary of War, sent a telegram from the Southern Telegraph Company offices on the second floor to Confederate artillery forces outside Charleston, South Carolina. The telegram authorized Confederate General P.G.T. Beauregard to fire on Fort Sumter, launching the War Between the States.\nWALK OVER TO THE FOUNTAIN AT THE CENTER OF THE SQUARE.\nCourt, Dexter and Commerce streets\nThis spring was where Montgomery got its drinking water in the early days; in the 1850s a basin was dug here as a small reservoir to use in case of fire. By 1884 the condition of the basin had deteriorated to the point that it drew the attention of the local scribes, one of whom wrote, \u201cThere is everywhere in the city an expression of regret at the action of a majority of the City Council on Monday night in voting down a resolution to appropriate a reasonable sum of money with which to improve and render somewhat attractive the artesian basin. Our City Fathers have shown themselves in the main to be progressive and public-spirited. They have made many needed improvements, but nothing deserves more consideration at their hands than the basin. It is open and free to all and essentially belongs to the public. Montgomery is the Capital of a great state and is no longer a crossroads town. No city of its size and importance in this country is so unadorned; so free from artistic embellishments.\u201d Before the month was out money for improvements was approvedand eventually more than $7,000 would be spent for the double-tiered fountain with Classical reliefs and ornamentation topped by Hebe, goddess of youth and cup-bearer to the gods. The fountain was found in Atlanta, a work by famed American sculptor Frederick MacMonnies (a half-century later doubt was cast that it actually was a MacMonnies creation) that had been commissioned privately and rejected. It was installed here in 1885 and restored 100 years later.\nEXIT COURT SQUARE DOWN MONTGOMERY STREET.\n207 Montgomery Street at Lee Street\nNewton Joseph Bell was a planter and the largest landowner in Lowndes County. In 1881, when he was 33, Bell left the farm and moved into Montgomery where he became one of the town\u2019s biggest civic boosters and most successful business leaders. In 1906 he set out to build a new sky king downtown and engaged local architects Frederick Ausfeld and Fernando M. Blount to design his skyscraper. The classically flavored 160-foot tower was completed $500,000 later in 1910, just as Newton Bell passed away.\nThe first movie lovers grasping their quarters lined up outside this Colonial Revival theater on January 25, 1930 when it opened as the Paramount Theater. Through the years the Paramount also hosted vaudeville performances, live game shows and weddings. Among the highlights of its nearly half-century run as a movie palace took place on November 1964 when the Paramount hosted the Hollywood premier of the bio-pic of Hank Williams, Your Cheatin\u2019 Heart, with George Hamilton in the lead. The Paramount closed in 1976 with a final screening of Gone With The Wind, thirty-six years of the epic had its Alabama premier here. Unlike many of America\u2019s grand downtown movie theaters the 1,575-seat Paramount was lucky. The venue was purchased by Troy State University and restored to continue life as a stage for live performances, named for benefactor Tine W. Davis of the family who owned the Winn-Dixie grocery chain.\nThe modern Civil Rights movement was born on a December day in 1955 at a bus stop located here when Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat to a boarding white man. The bus went no further until Parks was hauled off and arrested. On December 5 she was found guilty of disorderly conduct and fined and a boycott of city buses began that day. The boycott would last 382 days until the United States Supreme Court ordered the integration of public transportation. Opened in 2000, the Rosa Parks Museum, maintained by Toy University, celebrates the life and legacy of civil rights activist Rosa Parks.\nJefferson Davis Hotel\n344 Montgomery Street at Catoma Street\nThe ten-story Jefferson Davis Hotel was built in 1927 in a Neoclassical style on plans drawn by Austrian-born architect Frederick Ausfield. In the 1940s it became part of the Dinkler Hotel chain. Louis Jacob Dinkler was born in Nashville in the 1861 and worked as a baker before opening his first hotel in Macon, Georgia at the age of 50. His son Carling joined the business and aggressively promoted the acquisition of additional properties - by the end of the 1920s Carling Dinkler owned or managed 22 hotels throughout the Southeast. Most, like the Jefferson Davis, retained their traditional names. Inside the hotel, from the 1930s, was the WSFA radio station where Hank Williams performed and, even though the guest rooms were segregated, Ralph David Abernathy and Martin Luther King, Jr., broadcast Sunday morning sermons. On the National Register of Historic Places, the ten-story Neoclassical brick building is currently used as apartments for the elderly.\nTURN LEFT ON CATOMA STREET.\nCatoma Street Church of Christ\n100 Catoma Street\nAlthough they were few in number, Montgomery Jews organized in 1846 mostly to minister to the sick and bury the dead. In 1852 the Kahl Congregation was organized and this property was acquired six years later. This substantial brick building, named House of Light, was designed in a Romanesque style by Philadelphia architect John Stewart and was holding services by 1862. By 1901, the Jewish population of Montgomery had significantly increased and the decision was made to build a new synagogue elsewhere. The building was bought by the Church of Christ, a congregation formed in 1881, for $7,500.\nCurry Commons Plaza-Troy University\nTroy University began life in 1887 as a \u201cnormal school\u201d where new teachers were trained. The school has since evolved into a state university, located in four sites across the Alabama: Troy, Montgomery, Phenix City and Dothan. The Montgomery campus caters to working adult students. This $two million brick clock tower anchors this pedestrian concourse and green space; it boasts a gas-fed \u201ctorch of knowledge\u201d that symbolizes the university.\nUnited States Post Office and Courthouse--Montgomery\nChurch Street between Catoma Street and Lee Street\nThis monumental five-story limestone building on a granite base was raised in 1929 to alleviate overcrowding of federal offices scattered throughout the town. Local architect Frank Lockwood, Sr.\ndesigned the building in a restrained Renaissance Revival style to fit the trapezoidal plot of land. The symmetrical principal facade faces Church Street and is dominated by two pediments at each end that are supported by four engaged Doric columns. A frieze with incised triglyphs and a dentil (rectangular block) course is found beneath the pediments. The Lee Street elevation features a colonnade of eight Doric columns, while the Court Street elevation contains three-story pilasters. Entrances have bronze doors with pediments decorated with eagles and floral scrolls. In 1992, the building was renamed for Frank M. Johnson, Jr., the district judge who ruled that segregated seating on Montgomery\u2019s buses was unlawful.\nTURN RIGHT ON LEE STREET AND BEAR LEFT ON ADAMS STREET.\nMontgomery Carnegie Library\nSouth Perry Street at Adams Street\nAfter selling his steel company for $400 million and becoming the world\u2019s richest man, Scottish-born industrialist Andrew Carnegie set out to give away all his money. One of his pet projects was public libraries. He funded over 2,500 of them around the world, including 14 in Alabama. None of the communities had an existing public library. The first, and by far the largest, grant in the state came to Montgomery, which used its $50,000 to construct this Beaux Arts library in 1904.\nSt. Peter\u2019s was the first Catholic church in Montgomery, established in 1834. Land here was donated by Edward Hanrick and a small frame church was dedicated on April 25, 1834. With the naming of Montgomery as the state capital and the growth of the town a new facility became desirable by 1850 and new pastor Anthony Dominic Pellicer worked tirelessly to raise needed funds. He went to Mexico City but returned empty-handed when bandits robbed his stagecoach. Undaunted he was soon off to Cuba and this Spanish-style church, unique to the Montgomery streetscape and perhaps a legacy of Pellicer\u2019s fundraising adventures, was dedicated on September 10, 1853.\nGovernor Thomas G. Jones House\nBuilt in 1855, this was a four-room cottage before Thomas Goode Jones was elected governor in 1890 and converted it into a Victorian executive mansion. ones was born in Macon Georgia in 1844 and left the Virginia Military Institute in 1862 to serve in the Confederate Army under Stonewall Jackson. Jones saw extensive action in the war and was wounded four times. At Appomattox, Major Jones carried one of the flags of truce. After he died in 1914 the house remained in the family and was occasionally used as a federal courtroom.\nTURN LEFT ON HULL STREET AND WALK ONE BLOCK TO WASHINGTON AVENUE. ON YOUR LEFT IS...\nDowe House\n334 Washington Avenue at Hull Street\nThis Greek Revival mansion, recently restored, anchors the Dowe Historic District that includes the house behind it on Hull Street and the Victorian house next door at #320.\nFACING DOWE HOUSE, TURN LEFT ON WASHINGTON AVENUE AND CROSS HULL STREET, WALKIN GEAST, AWAY FROM COURT SQUARE.\nLocated in an open plaza and accessible 24 hours a day, the memorial remembers 40 people who died between 1954 and 1968 in the struggle for equal rights. The circular black granite table containing the names was designed by Maya Lin, the architect of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington, DC. The memorial, based on the healing effect of water, was dedicated in 1989.\nThe Alabama Department of Archives and History was started in 1901 to tell the story of the people of Alabama. It was first state department to preserve historical records and artifacts in the United States. The archives operated out of a newly constructed south wing of the Capitol in its early days as founder and director Thomas McAdory Owen agitated for a building of its own. He was not successful before he died but his widow and next director, Marie Bankhead Owen, was able to secure New Deal funding during the Great Depression for this grand Neoclassical building in 1940.\nThis was a Federal-style house built by lawyer William Sayre between 1832 and 1835 over on the corner of Bibb and Lee streets. In the 1850s Colonel Edmond Harrison gave the two-story frame house an Italianate makeover in the popular style of the day with a bracketed cornice and front porch. When the new Confederate States of America organized in early 1861 its constitutional convention selected Jefferson Davis as provisional president and authorized $5,000 a year for the leasing, funding and staffing of an executive mansion. This is the house Davis and his wife Varina Anne Howell moved into. When war with the Union started on April 21 plans were made to move the Confederate capital to Richmond and the government was gone on May 20, 1861. The contents of the house were sold off, others moved in and that was that.\nA generation later the Alabama Division of the United Daughters of the Confederacy formed in 1897 and it was realized that this house was \u201cthe first White House of the Confederacy.\u201d Armed with more dreams than money, the preservation of the house was undertaken but it took more than 20 years and several brushes with demolition to bring the house to this site, reassemble and restore the building and present it to the people of Alabama on June 3, 1921, the 113th anniversary of the birth of Jefferson Davis.\nWALK ACROSS THE STREET AND ONTO THE GROUNDS OF THE ALABAMA STATE CAPITOL. WORK YOUR WAY TO THE LEFT, AROUND TO THE FRONT OF THE BUILDING.\nhead of Dexter Avenue\nThe first State Capitol in Montgomery was built in 1847 but, even though it was constructed of stuccoed brick, it burned almost two years to the day from its completion. A new capitol building was raised on the foundations of the original and mostly followed its Greek Revival form created by Philadelphia architect Stephen Decatur Button. The 1851 three-story core of the building features bays defined by Doric pilasters and a monumental portico utilizing the Composite order. The central dome was a deviation from the original, with architect Barachias Holt providing a simpler compositionon a ring of Corinthian columns. Later additions enlarged the building in 1885, 1906 and 1911 and all was completely renovated in 1992. The Capitol is surrounded by parklike grounds peppered with monuments to Alabama history and inside a three-story spiral stairway and murals depicting more Alabama history highlight the rotunda. Look on the west portico for a bronze star that marks the spot where Jefferson Davis took the oath of office as President of the Confederate States of America on February 18, 1861.\nLEAVE THE CAPITOL AND WALK DOWN DEXTER STREET. THIS MAIN THOROUGHFARE WAS ORIGINALLY MARKET STREET AND RE-NAMED FOR THE FOUNDER OF MONTGOMERY, ANDREW DEXTER.\nThis congregation formed as the Second Colored Baptist Church in 1877 in a slave trader\u2019s pen. Two years later this property was acquired for $270 and a small wood-frame meetinghouse was raised. The current red brick church was constructed between 1883 and 1889. In 1954 Martin Luther King, Jr., with a newly minted Bachelor of Divinity degree from Crozer Theoloogical Seminary in Chester, Pennsylvania, became pastor here at the age of 25. From his office in the church he directed the Montgomery Bus Boycott in 1955. In 1978 the church name, that had been changed when Montgomery renamed Market Street in honor of town founder Andrew Dexter, added the name of Dr. King, who received his doctorate during his six-year stint as the church\u2019s twentieth pastor. It was his only full-time pastorate. The church building was completely restored in 2003.\nAlabama Judicial Building\nHome of Alabama Supreme Court, Courts of Criminal Appeals and Civil Appeals, State Law Library, Administrative Office of Courts, this block-filling Neoclassical structure came on board in the 1990s with a price tag of $35 million. It is the first facility in the United States to house all of these entities under one roof. The building, that incorporates a 47-foot grade change, was designed jointly by Barganier, Davis, Sims Architects Associated of Montgomery and Gresham, Smith, and Partners of Birmingham. The building is faced with Indiana limestone and its ten entrance columns, with hand-carved replicas of the Ionic order design found on the Roman Coliseum, are crafted of solid limestone. There are 700 doors in the building with 6 keys for each door.\nDexter Avenue United Methodist Church\nThis congregation formed in 1888 in the Dotzheim Grocery and Saloon and convened there until the cornerstone for this brick Romanesque-style church was laid in 1892. The first services were held in 1896. The building boasts exquisite stone trim and terra cotta detailing.\nThe RSA (Retirement Systems of Alabama) Tower, at 375 feet and 23 stories, is, by open lengths, the tallest building in Montgomery. It came on line in 1997 with 613,660 square feet of rentable office space.\nThe core of this handsome brick and stone building was constructed in 1855. The Montgomery Advertiser, a newspaper that began life in 1829 as The Planter\u2019s Gazette, moved here in 1902 and built an addition in 1908. Current tenant Alabama Power orchestrated a Colonial Revival facelift before moving in.\nSamuel H. Kress was an avid art collector who wanted his five-and-dime stores to stand as public works of art on in the more than 200 towns in which he operated. This dedication to architectural quality has kept many Kress stores from an appointment with the wrecking ball and prime candidates for adaptive re-use. The Montgomery Kress building is awaiting its turn. This is actually the second Kress building in Montgomery, constructed in 1929 after its predecessor had been destroyed in a fire. That building dated to 1898 and was actually the third in the chain that started in Memphis two years earlier. Like many Kress stores, this one had two entrances; this one on Monroe Street featured a more Art Deco look while the entrance on Dexter Street was more classically inspired with a pair of fluted Doric columns in its center.\nTAKE A FEW STEPS BACK TO PERRY STREET AND TURN LEFT.\n39 North Perry Street at Monroe Street\nThis was the MontgomeryTheatre when it opened in October of 1860. One of its earliest stand-out performers was John Wilkes Booth who arrived in Montgomery two weeks before Abraham Lincoln was elected President and he stayed for six weeks with his touring company, playing the lead to great acclaim in such productions as \u201cRomeo and Juliet\u201d and \u201cThe Apostate.\u201d The stage was active until 1907, hosting the leading performers of the day. Legend maintains that Dan Emmett, the composer for the Bryant Minstrels first inscribed the score for the seminal tune \u201cDixie\u201d on a backstage wall with a piece of charcoal while performing here. Beginning in 1920 the Italianate brick building was the long-time home to Webber\u2019s Department Store; look up to see decorative window hoods emblematic of the style and cornice brackets crafted of bricks.\nNorth Perry Street between Madison Avenue and Monroe Street\nThis has been the historic site of the city hall in Montgomery. An early structure evolved into a block-filling Victorian building that contained a city market at the street level and municipal offices and an auditorium above. The building was gutted by a fire on the first day of spring 1932. Funds were hard to come by at the height of the Great Depression and a replacement would not be finished until 1937, executed on Neoclassical plans drawn by local architect Frank Lockwood.\nHank Williams Statue\nLister Hill Park; North Perry Street across from City Auditorium\nThe Municipal Auditorium was the site of Hank Williams\u2019 funeral on January 4, 1953. Family members first viewed the body at his mother\u2019s boarding house at 217 McDonough Street and the casket was then brought four blocks to the Municipal Auditorium. Some 2,750 mourners crowded inside for the service while another 20,000 maintained a vigil outside in the cold weather. Many of country music\u2019s headliners, including the reunited Drifting Cowboys, sang at the funeral. In 1991, Hank Williams, Jr., commissioned Texas sculptors Doug and Sandra McDonald to create a life-sized statue of his father in the park facing the auditorium.\n113 Madison Avenue at Perry Street\nMontgomery\u2019s first Episcopalians, though small in number, were an energetic lot, building the town\u2019s first brick church in 1837 and purchasing all 48 pews. By 1855 the core of this building was constructed on plans drawn by Frank Wills and Henry Dudley, prominent church architects from England who emigrated to New York. A few years later the church was the site of the secession convention of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the Confederate States; Confederacy President Jefferson Davis attended services here in the company of his wife, an Episcopalian. In 1869 the original church at the other end of the block was torn down and the bricks used to build the present chancel and sanctuary.\nTURN LEFT ON MADISON AVENUE THAT BECOMES BIBB STREET AS IT BENDS LEFT.\n22 Bibb Street\nJohn H. Murphy was a Virginia cotton merchant who moved his family into this Greek Revival mansion fronted by a grand Corinthian portico in 1851. John Murphy died in 1859 and the coming Civil War visited hard times on the family who were forced to rent rooms in their former home. In April of 1865 the Murphy House became the headquarters of the Union Provost Marshal. With the Murphys and Federal troops gone, nothing is known of the mansion\u2019s fate until 1902 when The Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks purchased it for use as a lodge. In 1970, the Montgomery Water Works and Sanitary Sewer Board acquired the property and renovated the space for offices while restoring the grandeur to Murphy House.\nTURN RIGHT ON COOSA STREET.\nSchloss & Kahn Warehouse\nThis building, handsomely restored, was the warehouse for the institutional grocers Schloss & Kahn beginning in 1895. The grocers were early practitioners of branding, pushing their line of Sunday Dinner canned fruits, vegetables and meats ahead of their store. The brick building is a blend of Italianate design (the arched windows and entrances capped with window hoods and Colonial Revival (rectangular windows with stone keystones and a modillion block cornice.\nSchloss and Kahn Building\n152 Coosa Street at Jefferson Street and Tallapoosa Street\nBorn in Brooklyn and raised in Macon, Georgia, Algernon Blair, the son of an architect, took his first contracting job in 1897 at the age of 24. His first commission in Montgomery came in 1902 and he would go on to be the town\u2019s leading builder until his death fifty years later. This classically-flavored, flat iron brick warehouse for Schloss and Kahn Grocery Company was one of his earliest projects, completed in 1905.\nACROSS TALLAPOOSA STREET IS...\nRiverwalk (Biscuits) Stadium\nThe Western Rail Road Company of Alabama was created in 1854 after the road between Montgomery and West Point, Georgia was finally completed and the directors eyed an extension to Selma. In 1898 the line, now the Western Railway of Alabama, constructed this low-slung brick building to house its offices. In an imaginative blend of historic preservation and adaptive re-use, the City transformed the Western Railway property into a new baseball stadium in 2004.\nTURN LEFT ON TALLAPOOSA STREET.\nWinter Loeb Building\nJacques Loeb was born in France and came to Montgomery in 1872 at the age of 17 where he entered into the grocery and dry goods business. He was president of the Winter Loeb Grocery Company when this brick warehouse was constructed by Algernon Blair in the first years of the 20th century, a position he retained until his death in 1912.\nCONTINUE ON TALLAPOOSA STREET A FEW MORE STEPS TO COMMERCE STREET AND TURN RIGHT TO RETURN TO THE TOUR STARTING POINT AT UNION STATION.",

        "raw_content": "War and entertainment\nI missed the Emmys and Little Dorrit's triumph, but I've finally seen Into the Storm which won Brendan Gleeson best actor in a miniseries or movie for his role as Winston Churchill. Ridley Scott and Tony Scott were the producers. Thaddeus O' Sullivan was the director. And I was the unhappy viewer.\nGleeson is terrific as Churchill.\nBut I didn't like the back and forth scenes between the Second World War and the days after the war, when Winston waits to learn whether the British people will give him the boot, as he charmingly remarks to George VI when declining his gift of the Garter.\nWinston is vacationing in a friend's French villa and quarreling with his wife Clementine. They did argue, but in letters to each other and in biographies describing their marriage it's passionately clear that they adored each other. Clementine could be \"a jaguar\" in Winston's defence (Winston's words).\nLosing sight of a great love story is one thing. Losing sight of a great war is another.\nI guess the people who grew up in the shadow of the Second World War assume everyone knows how evil the Nazis were. Many people today don't, and the miniseries never makes it evident. I have even seen a fool's history that suggests Britain should have made peace with the Nazis.\nThe bombing of Dresden is part of the miniseries story, but it is never revealed that both US President Franklin Roosevelt and Churchill made the decision to bomb Germany after the Nazi German bombing of Warsaw and Rotterdam, the Nazi blitz against London, the destruction of Coventry, the onslaughts against France and Russia and the refusal of the Germans to surrender unconditionally.\nNor is it explained that Dresden \"ranked high among the Reich's wartime industrial centers\" with more than a hundred factories producing torpedoes and machine guns.\nNazi propaganda minister Goebbels created the first lies about Dresden, grossly inflating casualties, and they have persisted.\nIt's true that Churchill , who always wanted to be in the thick of battle, hated the loss of life and ruin that occurred in war. The film suggests this.\nCovering the world, the Second World War is too great a conflict to be evoked by the inadequate images of Into the Storm. But Churchill, freed by having lost the election, and needing, as usual, money to pay his bills, went back to his study and dictated one of the great histories. His Second World Warcontains fascinating details and the sweep of a huge canvas on every page.\nchoi game baccarat online_\u0110\u1eb7t c\u01b0\u1ee3c mi\u1ec5n ph\u00ed ngay b\u00e2y gi\u1edd_c\u00e1ch ch\u01a1i c\u1edd b\u1ea1c th\u1eafng",

        "raw_content": "Business Energy Suppliers in Ohio\nSince 1997, deregulation of energy has allowed residents of Ohio to choose their energy supplier. Just as they shop for other product and services, they can now also shop for their energy products and choose the provider that supplies them with energy. The biggest advantage of this is the increasing competition in the energy market; since there are more companies out there that are competing with each other to get more customers; they all try to offer unique deals that attract more customers. The energy suppliers also offer cheaper and reasonable energy rates to choose from.\nThe companies that supply energy to homes and businesses in Ohio must be certified by the PUCO (Public Utilities Commission of Ohio) before they can sell electricity to the customers. Certification is a detailed, thorough process to make sure each that supplier is qualified to provide electricity in Ohio. Once they are certified, they can supply energy to the businesses in Ohio at the rates they want.\nWhile businesses still have the choice to keep receiving that energy from the utility, switching to a new supplier has numerous benefits. By switching to a new energy supplier, businesses may be able to save on their monthly energy costs. They can compare the rates offered by different energy companies and select the one that best fits their budget. The suppliers also offer various deals and packages, and some of them even offer specific \u201cbusiness deals\u2019\u2019 or customized deals that let the business owners choose some of the terms, rates and conditions of their choice. They also offer exceptional customer services and offer more customer rights to their customers. Competitive suppliers also introduced new energy products in the market.\nThe suppliers all have unique ways to bring in more customers; some offer rewards like gift cards, bonuses, or cash, while some offer free energy for certain times of the day or night. The consumers cannot just save money on their energy bills but they also have the choice to choose where their energy is coming from. Some energy suppliers, for example, offer renewable energy or green energy. Green energy is the cleanest form of energy generation. Generating energy from renewable resources does not contribute to global warming or air pollution. In this way, those suppliers have attractive \u201ceco-friendly\u201d campaigns that certainly get more businesses to choose them. In this way, by considering factors like better deals, competitive energy rates, innovative product offerings and much more, businesses can choose the right energy supplier for them and be at a great benefit.\nList of Business Energy Suppliers in Ohio",

        "raw_content": "Home / Blogs / Simon Barrow's blog / Autumn statement: discernment in an economic hall of mirrors\nAutumn statement: discernment in an economic hall of mirrors\nDespite some truly grim economic statistics, Chancellor George Osborne will attempt to deflect criticism for the failings of austerity economics in his Autumn Statement today, blaming the world economy and the last government.\nHe will continue to confuse the debt with the deficit (actually the investment we need can increase the latter in the short-run, but is required to reduce the former), ignore the problem of his own making that lies behind low tax receipts (the creation of a low-wage and precarious job market for increasing numbers of people) and fail to address structural inequality and capital leakage from the richest sectors (including the failure to tackle fundamental flaws in our financial economy which generated the last major crash, and could well do so again).\nIn other words, the gap between economic rhetoric and economic reality will continue to be enormous -- while those who favour an investment-led, sensibly regulated, SME-focused, local-led, job creation and sustainable/selective growth approach to tackling our economic problems still struggle to find a political space and a convincing popular narrative to champion the alternatives (such as those set out by the cross-party Green New Deal-style approach Ekklesia has continued to commend).\nThe other trick in the Chancellor's book today could be the attempt to find a legislative way of imposing austerity policies on an incoming government after the May 2015 General Election. That would be a really hot political potato.\nMany of the mainline media's economic commentators continue to espouse the flawed orthodoxies that are part of the problem. An exception tends to be Paul Mason (formerly of the BBC, now of Channel 4 News) who has spoken in the past couple of days of the 'wrong kind of recovery' -- one filled by private and financial debt, asset surges and the London-driven housing bubble. Here he sets out some of the terms of the debate and indicates the trajectory of the Chancellor's approach: http://blogs.channel4.com/paul-mason-blog/questions-tomorrows-autumn-sta...\nWe can also expect thoughtful analysis from our friends at the New Economics Foundation (http://www.neweconomics.org), Prime Economics (http://www.primeeconomics.org) and False Economy (http://falseeconomy.org.uk), and ToUChstone (http://touchstoneblog.org.uk), among others.\nEkklesia's concern with economy continues to be a fundamentally moral one -- how productive resources, money and public goods (like a banking system which can help people create and share) can be rescued from a corporatised, financialised political and civil sphere dominated by the interests of the super-rich.\nJust as the churches need to see economic activity as a part of their mission towards a just, peaceful and sustainable society (rather than delegating 'investment' to those who play by the rules of a game that contradicts these), so community-based politics has to reclaim the economic system from transnational dominance. That's the bigger picture we should not lose sight of.\n* More from Ekklesia on the Autumn Statement here: http://www.ekklesia.co.uk/autumnstatement\n* Previous budget analysis from Ekklesia: http://www.ekklesia.co.uk/budget\n* Green New Deal Group: http://www.greennewdealgroup.org\nKeywords:Economy | economics | budget | autumn statement | alternative economics",

The renewed call comes ahead of the 16th anniversary of Guant\u00e1namo\u2019s opening.\nOn 11 January 2002, the authorities opened the detention facility, where at least 780 men would ultimately be held. Today, 41 men are still detained. Some 31 of the men have endured at least a decade of detention without being charged with a crime by US courts.\nReprieve\u2019s clients have recently reported being denied medical treatment, and subjected to fresh abuses. These compound the recent history of US torture in detention, including those practices outlined in the US Senate Intelligence Committee\u2019s report on CIA detention and interrogation.\nThe call comes ahead of an event in DC on 11 January 2017, where the Center for Constitutional Rights, Reprieve, and counsel for several other detainees will announced a court filing challenging President Trump\u2019s Guant\u00e1namo policy.\nReprieve attorney Shelby Sullivan-Bennis, who represents Guantanamo detainees, said: \u201cIt\u2019s shameful that 16 years after the opening of Guant\u00e1namo, we are still holding people without charge or trial on the basis of faulty \u2018intelligence\u2019 extracted through torture. Guant\u00e1namo is a violation of America\u2019s strongest-held principles concerning the rule of law. If our current President really wants to make America great again, he should make 2018 the year that we close this legal black hole. It is the responsibility of the courts and Congress to hold him to account in doing so.\u201d\n* Read the Senate Intelligence Committe report here\n* Reprieve https://www.reprieve.org.uk/\nKeywords:detention without charge | detention without trial | guantanamo bay | human rights abuses | Reprieve | rule of law | torture",

        "raw_content": "Cancer is a disease that affects almost every species \u2013 from dogs and cats, to humans and elephants and many more.\nBut when talking about cancer, it\u2019s easy to forget that it\u2019s not one single disease. In fact, it\u2019s a range of different diseases, each of which has a different outlook and different treatment options.\nCancer develops when a cell becomes faulty and grows out of control. And because virtually any type of cell in a dog\u2019s body can become faulty, this means there are almost as many types of cancer as there are cells.\nIn dogs, this equates to there being over 200 different types of cancer. In humans, it is likely to be a similar amount.\nAs with humans, cancer in general is more common among older dogs. But some cancers in particular are more common in dogs than others.\nFor example, lymphoma accounts for around 20% of all canine cancers, while hemangiosarcoma (a tumour that develops from endothelial cells, the cells that line blood vessels) is a common cancer in middle-age and older dogs.\nMammary carcinoma, a type of cancer that affects the mammary glands, is one of the most common cancers seen in unspayed female dogs. And osteosarcoma, a cancer of the bone, is also frequently seen among dogs.\nOther common canine cancers include transitional cell carcinoma, mast cell tumours, melanoma, squamous cell carcinoma, soft tissue sarcoma and apocrine gland (anal sac) carcinoma.\nEach of these types of cancer arise because of different genetic mistakes (also called mutations) developing in different types of cells.\nMammary carcinoma will develop because a dog\u2019s mammary cells have acquired certain genetic faults, while lymphoma develops because of faults in cells of your dog\u2019s immune system.\nDifferent cancers and different breeds\nWhile we know that cancer can and does affect all dogs, we also know that as well as there being different types of canine cancers, some breeds of dog are more likely to develop the disease than others.\nFor example, Rottweilers are known to be more susceptible to developing osteosarcomas, mast cell tumours and soft tissue sarcomas among other cancers, while Golden Retrievers are more prone to developing lymphoma.\nMelanoma, which arises from pigment-producing melanocyte cells is common in Scottish terriers and Giant Schnauzers among others, while West Highland Terriers can be at a higher risk of developing bladder cancer.\nThe fact that different breeds of dog are more susceptible to some cancers than others highlights the fact that there\u2019s a huge genetic component to cancer in canines.\nAs in humans, mistakes in specific genes are associated with specific cancers \u2013 for example mistakes in the p53, PTEN or RB1 gene are known to increase a dog\u2019s risk of developing osteosarcoma. Mistakes in p53 along with faults in the p21 and p16 genes are thought to be involved in the development of melanoma in dogs.\nStudies that determine which breeds of dogs are susceptible to cancer are important. But it\u2019s important to remember that they should be taken more as indicators of breed susceptibility rather than definitive conclusions.\nThis is because they are population-based studies which look at a certain population of dogs in a certain place, meaning the results and conclusions that they make depend on the prevalence of a particular breed within a given population.\nWhere in the world a study was carried out is also important because of differences in population. So a study done in the US may not be directly relevant in the UK.\nAnother important factor to be considered in breed susceptibility is underlying breed-associated health problems and inherited disease. For example, bulldogs appear to have a lower risk of developing cancer, but this could in fact be because as a breed, it has other health issues that contribute to it having a lower life-expectancy.\nEven though these cancers all develop from different cells in a dog\u2019s body, and are characterised by different genetic faults, they have some things in common.\nOne of these is the fact that if they are diagnosed in the early stages they will be easier to treat, and treatment is more likely to be successful.\nThat\u2019s why it\u2019s important to be aware of some of the more commons signs and symptoms of cancer. These include\nlumps and bumps under the skin\nThis is by no means an exhaustive list. So it\u2019s important to remember that if you notice anything unusual in your dog\u2019s behaviour or health you should bring them to your vet.\nIt will most likely be nothing, but it\u2019s better to get it checked out.\nSo if cancer isn\u2019t one single disease, but rather a range of diseases, what does this mean for treatment?\nOn the one hand it means that there\u2019s no single cure for cancer, no magic bullet that can be used to treat all of the different disease types.\nThis might sound disheartening, but it shouldn\u2019t.\nThe fact that we know there are different types of cancer that behave differently means vets can offer dogs the best, most appropriate treatment for them and their cancer.\nBy knowing the enemy we\u2019re dealing with we can better equip ourselves to fight it. And this in turn increases the likelihood of the treatment being successful.\nTreatment will be tailored to a specific type of cancer, and will work to target the known weaknesses of a particular type of cancer.\nThe treatment options available to dogs are similar to those available to people. Surgery tends to be the most common type of treatment for canine cancers, with vets often recommending this to be followed by other treatments like chemotherapy or radiotherapy.\nThese last two types of treatment in particular can be tailored depending on the type of cancer, where in the body it is and what stage it\u2019s at.\nDifferent combinations of chemotherapy drugs are used to treatment different cancers, often with good success. And radiotherapy is given in different ways using different doses depending on the tumour type and location.\nWe\u2019re also beginning to see more research into using immunotherapies to treat dogs with certain kinds of cancer.\nThis type of treatment, which is showing a lot of promise in human cancers, stimulates the body\u2019s own immune system to kill cancer cells. It\u2019s still early days for this treatment in the dog world, but it is certainly an area worth keeping an eye on.\nUnderstanding that cancer is a range of different diseases rather than one single disease is what\u2019s led to improved treatment and outcome for dogs with cancer.\nKnowing the differences between different types of cancers allows vets to provide the most appropriate treatment for any dog that is sadly diagnosed with cancer.\nIt\u2019s also the reason that roughly 60% of dogs diagnosed with cancer will survive their disease. And with continued research into how to diagnose cancer early and new treatment options, let\u2019s hope that the statistics continue to improve.\nThat\u2019s something to look forward to.",

        "raw_content": "Home > Discover > News > Autonomous cars require good car drivers\nAutonomous cars require good car drivers\nIt might sound a bit strange, but there is evidence from studies that autonomous driving requires good car drivers. Researchers of the \u201cCenter for Human-Computer Interaction\u201d at the University of Salzburg are taking a closer look at the challenges that will come with the next generation of driver assistance systems in vehicles. Computer scientist Alexander Meschtscherjakov and his team are focusing on autonomous driving cars at stage 3, i.e. when drivers no longer need to have their hands on the steering wheel.\nThe challenge is that drivers forget how to drive to some extent. This creates a problem once drivers need to take over control of a car in case of technical errors, bad weather or similar situations where the car\u2019s software cannot handle the situation any longer.\nTwo aspects of the research project were: a survey among persons with little driving practice; and a driving simulation exercise. The survey showed that people feel confident about traffic rules but less confident handling possible dangerous or difficult situations when driving such as overtaking a lorry. The driving simulation is currently working with two groups: both experience situations where the car software handed over control to the driver. One group continued the exercise for six weeks while the other did not. Both groups were put to a test again after six weeks, with results being analysed currently.\nThe research team also investigated options to address the possible shortcomings in the driving skills of some drivers with stage 3 vehicles. A blueprint was taken from air traffic, in which there is a similar situation with autopilots taking over much of the actual flying. Here, pilots need to do tests and to fly a certain number of miles themselves in order to maintain their skills. Transferring this to autonomous driving, drivers would need to drive themselves for a certain length of time, as well. This could be an opportunity to encourage drivers to maintain their skills by driving in more difficult situations by applying a points system that gave more credits for driving at night or in bad weather conditions than in calm daylight conditions. Another point to learn from air traffic is the need to develop protocols and tests for when the driver should take over control from the software - this is currently being investigated in the simulations. \u201cWe try to increase awareness of the situations when drivers should take control of driving a car in a similar way, such as by making use of a checklist\u201d Meschtscherjakov states.\nHe clearly states that autonomous driving cannot be a replacement for the driving skills that people have today. \u201cDriving skills need to increase actually\u201d, Meschtscherjakov states. Nevertheless, he thinks it possible that stage 3 autonomous vehicles will be in use in our cities in their own lanes or in restricted areas of inner cities in some years.\nStory first published by \u201corf.at\u201d on 18th of June 2018.",

Your credit worthiness is rated by the three credit reporting agencies and FICO. The scores represent the likelihood that a person will repay their loans, and it\u2019s determined by a person\u2019s borrowing history and other variables. Below are answers to frequently asked questions about credit, credit reports and credit scores. If you have additional questions, don\u2019t hesitate to contact our Finance Department.\nI have bad credit, what should I do?\nIf you have less than perfect credit, don\u2019t fret; you\u2019re not alone. Millions suffer from bad credit because of a variety of reasons. To improve your credit, start by getting reports from all three reporting agencies. This will shed light on what exactly is impairing your credit. Credit reports may contain inaccuracies that you can correct to help get your credit back on track. Paying down high balances and paying on time will go a long way to improving your credit.\nA credit score represents your creditworthiness and it\u2019s used by lenders to gauge whether a person will make payments on time. Scores are largely based on your borrowing history. The most common type of credit score available to consumers is the FICO score, which ranges from 300-850. The higher the credit score, the more likely you\u2019ll be able obtain credit and/or secure a lower interest rate.\nCredit scores range between 300 and 850. Typically, a good credit score is above 700.\nThe average credit score is 680. Anything below 620 is considered a poor score, or \u201csub-prime.\u201d\nFor those who already have a good credit score, rest assured that it\u2019s much easier to maintain a good score than to improve a poor one. Good credit can be maintained by adhering to healthy financial habits, such as making payments on time and shopping on credit only when it\u2019s absolutely necessary. Avoid making dramatic credit changes and don\u2019t close old accounts.",

        "raw_content": "Partnership reflects the vision of the Vice Chancellors of JGU and UNSW that collaboration in higher education can bring about transformational change\nMUMBAI, October 1, 2018 /PRNewswire/ \u2014 Jindal Global Business School (JGBS) of O.P. Jindal Global University (JGU) and University of New South Wales (UNSW) Business School, Australia, launched a strategic partnership through which JGBS students may apply to enter UNSW\u2019s Master of Commerce programme. The objective behind the initiative was not only to strengthen the on-going partnership between JGU and UNSW but also to provide a strong collaboration platform between the two business schools that would qualitatively impact the learning experience of students.\nWelcoming the delegation Dr. Rajesh Chakrabarti, Acting Dean, JGBS, said, \u201cThe UNSW connection provides JGBS students a unique opportunity to study at one of the world\u2019s leading Business Schools in the scenic, vibrant and most liveable city of Sydney. The JGU-UNSW connection is an extremely important partnership for JGBS, and business and economic ties lay at the core of the relationship between the two universities as well as the two countries. We at JGBS are confident that this partnership will only grow with time and add value to both partners.\u201d\nThis partnership allows JGBS graduates to complete their Master of Commerce at UNSW and specialize in relevant and leading-edge disciplines, including Business Analytics, Marketing Analytics, Innovation and Entrepreneurship, and Global Sustainability and Social Impact.\nProfessor Laknath Jayasinghe, Vice Dean, JGBS, said, \u201cThe occasion reflects JGU\u2019s continued commitment to fostering partnerships with leading global universities. I am particularly pleased that JGBS students will have the unique opportunity to learn and live in Sydney, one of the world\u2019s leading commercial, creative, and multicultural cities.\u201d\nSpeaking on the occasion, Professor Tracy Wilcox, Programme Director, Master of Commerce of the UNSW Business School, said, \u201cUNSW is delighted with the partnership and we look forward to it as a step toward strengthening collaboration with JGBS.\u201d\nProf Wilcox also delivered a lecture on \u2018Business and Ethics\u2019 where she stressed on the need for B-Schools imparting skills to students that could dramatically transform the work space and contribute towards just societies.\nShe remarked, \u201cManagement education needs to inculcate values and respect for the external environment. My continued interaction with Indian students has been particularly memorable because I have found Indian students to be bright, articulate, enterprising and curious. These are the students who would not only be able to anticipate the future but contribute towards creating it.\u201d\nUNSW India country director Amit Dasgupta said the partnership reflects the vision of the Vice Chancellors of JGU and UNSW that collaboration in higher education can bring about transformational change. \u2018The future\u2019 he said, \u2018is not there, it is for us to shape.\u2019\nAbout UNSW, Sydney:\nLocated in Sydney, a safe and student friendly city, UNSW is home to more than 52,000 students from nearly 130 countries. UNSW has been attracting a growing number of bright Indian students for Undergraduate and Post Graduate studies in Business, Commerce, IT, Engineering, Design & Architecture.\nAs one of the world\u2019s leading research and teaching universities, UNSW\u2019s cutting edge research and innovation \u2013 facilitated by 3,000 faculty \u2013 is known for acceptance and successful commercialization.\nThe 2019 edition of the QS World University Rankings: Graduate Employability, that reviewed 500 universities, has placed UNSW 28th in the world for graduate employability.\nFor more details, please visit: http://www.UNSW.edu.au\nDr. Rajesh Chakrabarti\nJGBS",

        "raw_content": "We are thrilled to chat with Clarissa Thorne, creator of the geek crafting book, A Geek\u2019s Guide to Cross-Stitch: Journeys in Space, published through Fanbase Press. Today, you\u2019ll get a glimpse into the creative process behind this book and how being a parent might\u2019ve impacted Clarissa\u2019s special journey to starting and completing this project.\nGeeky Parent Guide: Thank you so much for taking time to chat! Your new book, A Geek\u2019s Guide to Cross-Stitch: Journeys in Space, seems to be a perfect marriage of space travel and geek crafting. Will you share with those who aren\u2019t familiar with the book what they will find inside its pages?\nClarissa Thorne: Journeys in Space is a collection of cross-stitch patterns celebrating the beauty of outer space and the extraordinary achievements humans have made in exploring our solar system and the larger cosmos beyond. The book contains 25 designs featuring NASA missions and astronauts, shuttles and rockets, planets and constellations, and the search for extraterrestrial life. I also offer instructions on how to cross-stitch, including what tools and materials you will need, how to make common stitches used in cross-stitch, how to read a pattern, and tips for making your stitching look great.\nAll of the patterns are targeted to beginner to intermediate stitchers. I really want to encourage people who have never picked up a needle and thread to try it out. Cross-stitch is a great way to start experimenting with embroidery as a hobby. The patterns are straightforward and require only a few basic types of stitches.\nGPG: How did previous professional and personal experiences inspire this book? Are there specific geeky moments you wanted to make sure found a place in Journeys in Space?\nCT: I had a desire to do a craft book when I started designing patterns and selling them through Unexpected Hobby. Actually, that desire was probably with me back when I first took up embroidery as a hobby over 12 years ago. I fell in love with cross-stitch very early on, but had a very difficult time finding designs I was interested in. Eventually, I discovered a Japanese embroidery designer, Kazuko Aoki, whose gorgeous and intricate botanical designs were clearly adapted from watercolor illustrations. I stitched dozens of Aoki\u2019s designs and started to get a sense of how she moved from an illustration to a cross-stitch pattern. I decided to try my hand at creating designs for myself, all very specific to my personal fandoms.\nThe original inspiration for Journeys in Space came from my fascination with the photos coming back to us from NASA\u2019s Cassini Mission to Saturn. I kept trying to depict the stunning images of Saturn\u2019s rings with embroidery floss, but don\u2019t think I was ever very successful. In Journeys, I definitely wanted to convey the awe I feel about our ability to send complex bits of machinery and computer code across the reaches of our solar system to study such spectacular beauty.\nGPG: How long did this project take from initial idea to its release date of October 2018? What were your thoughts when you decided to tackle a book like this, especially when you\u2019re a working parent?\nCT: I made the decision to seriously pursue writing a craft book early in 2016. A large chunk of those two years was spent exploring a feasible way to achieve that goal, whether through self-publishing avenues or trying to pitch the idea to publishers. Thankfully, Fanbase Press stepped into the picture fairly early on. Actual work on the designs and the writing took up the better part of a year and a half.\nIn addition to support from Fanbase Press, I\u2019ve also attended Dear Handmade Life\u2019s Craftcation Conference since 2015. Craftcation is an annual conference that offers creative business courses and craft workshops. It\u2019s an amazing community of craft industry experts, small business entrepreneurs, crafters, and artists. It was an invaluable opportunity to get feedback about my ideas and learn from professionals with a wide range of business experience.\nEven more importantly, I connected with dozens of creators who, like myself, were working parents. It was an amazing way to start to get a handle on the challenges I knew I would be facing, from time management to financial strain to actual skills I would need to teach myself. The most daunting hurdle seemed to be how to find time in a 40-hour work week to tackle such huge task. I never would have even attempted such a feat without the Fanbase Press and Craftcation network of support and knowledge.\nGPG: How did you approach piecing this book together? Did the creative process change at all during the project, or were you able to construct an initial outline and hold true to that initial plan?\nCT: The creative process started with the patterns themselves. I knew very early on that I wanted a range of pattern sizes that would offer my audience a number of options for the end projects. I did create an outline early on in the process, and for the most part, held to it pretty well. As with any creative effort, though, there were definitely times when I aborted a design or idea somewhere during the process when it became apparent something just wasn\u2019t working out the way I wanted.\nWhen it came to making choices about different elements of the book design, I vacillated for awhile between several different options. Being able to work closely with my editor and having a creative community to bounce ideas off of was extremely important.\nGPG: As a parent, time can seem to be so finite. Did your husband and son become of a part of this project in any way, whether to give you time by assuming household chores or sharing geeky ideas? If they were a part of the process, did that leave a lasting impact during the project or add satisfaction upon completion of it?\nCT: I\u2019ve always felt my husband and son are an integral part of my creative endeavors. My husband is also an artist, and we\u2019ve been attending local comic conventions in a vendor capacity for a number of years now. We generally share and interact with our fandoms as a family. Both my son and my husband frequently suggest design ideas to me, so much so that I usually can\u2019t keep up with all of them. They both had a significant hand in helping me with many of the practical aspects of the book and by helping pick up slack in other areas. I specifically owe my husband many months of making dinner!\nI\u2019m not sure I can adequately measure the impact my family has had on this book. Outside of the specific ways they helped me, they\u2019ve also had a much more intangible influence in helping create an environment where I continue to want to be creative. A large part of that is because they are both actively geeky and creative about their own interests.\nGPG: Were there any challenges during the creative process of A Geek\u2019s Guide to Cross-Stitch that made this process seem too daunting or annoying? What did you do in those moments to help get beyond those frustrations, if there were any?\nCT: My biggest crisis moment happened as I tackled the actual book layout. It was very difficult for me to visualize what I was trying to create. It was very important to me that the patterns themselves be as readable in the book as possible, even though this is frequently very difficult to achieve when you\u2019re working with small symbols and colors in a grid. I had no idea if my choices about page layout, image placement, or really any other aspect of the layout were going to work until I actually started to see draft pages come back. It was utterly terrifying.\nDuring one particularly tough moment, my son gave me a note that basically said, \u201cI love you so much. I believe in you. Your book is going to be great.\u201d That pretty much saved the day.\nGPG: On the opposite end of the spectrum, I imagine there were special moments while making this book, too. Is there a single one, or many, that really stand out to you, whether it be the initial \u201cI\u2019m going to write a book\u201d moment, the print reveal, or anything at all?\nCT: I always have felt a special moment when I\u2019m finished stitching a design I\u2019ve created. Holding something in your hands that you\u2019ve created, no matter how big or small, is an amazing feeling. Holding the finished book in my hands for the first time was the same kind of feeling, multiplied by a million.\nAnd being able to share the book with my mother a few months before she passed away was indescribably important to me.\nGPG: Being a creator and a parent can be quite exhausting. What message can other parents take from your experiences, especially those who might want to tackle their own creative endeavors?\nCT: I first felt the desire to learn to do something creative shortly after my son was born. It was a way for me to cope with a certain amount of postpartum depression and feeling overwhelmed by being a new parent. I\u2019m very glad I listened to that instinct to carve something out something just for myself.\nDon\u2019t be ashamed to take your own time and to have your own interests. Set aside a physical space to engage in those interests. Share those interests with your family. Encourage your spouse and your kids to do the same.\nGPG: Equally important, what message do you hope your son, and other parents\u2019 kids, might take away from shooting for the stars, so to speak, and trying to accomplish a major goal?\nCT: My son has seen both my successes and my failures. He\u2019s witnessed all of the ups and downs. He\u2019s watched me keep doing something, over and over and over, until I finally got it to work. He\u2019s seen the hard work that comes with learning a creative skill. Like I discuss in the introduction to Journeys, I hope he learns to not let the desire for perfection overcome his willingness to tackle something hard or experiment with creative solutions.\nGPG: Are there any other past works you would like to highlight or projects you\u2019re currently working on that you can share with us?\nCT: I have a handful of new designs coming out in the Unexpected Hobby Etsy store in the next few weeks, including one celebrating the Curiosity Rover on Mars. I\u2019m also working on a Lord of the Rings-themed image that is going to be the largest design I\u2019ve done to date.\nGPG: When you find time to unwind, what books, TV, or movies are you a fan of right now? And what are you most looking forward to reading or watching in 2019?\nCT: As a family, we\u2019re well into the third season the TV series, The Expanse. I\u2019m currently listening to the audio-book, Nemesis Games, which is the fifth book in the Expanse series by James S.A. Corey. The ninth book in the series is scheduled for release for June of this year, so I\u2019m hoping to be caught up by then. It\u2019s been an interesting experience to consume this story on screen and on the page at the same time. (Imagine reading and watching Game of Thrones at the same time and trying to keep all of the story detours straight.)\nLast year, I discovered two other extremely satisfying sci-fi book series that I\u2019ve been recommending to everyone I can: Wayfarers by Becky Chambers and The Murderbot Diaries by Martha Wells.\nOn the big screen, I\u2019m looking forward to Captain Marvel and Avengers: Endgame later this spring. And I\u2019m looking forward to re-watching Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse as many times as possible.\nGPG: Thank you so much for taking time to chat with me! Where can people find you online, and where can they purchase A Geek\u2019s Guide to Cross-Stitch: Journeys in Space?\nCT: A Geek\u2019s Guide to Cross-Stitch: Journeys in Space is available from Fanbase Press and at geeksguidetocrossstitch.com. I have a wide selection of geeky cross-stitch patterns and kits available in my Etsy store, unexpectedhobby.etsy.com.\nPeople can find out about new designs on my blog, unexpectedhobby.com, or by following @unexpectedhobby on Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter. Oh, and I highly encourage your readers to check out this year\u2019s Craftcation Conference taking place from April 3 - 7, 2019, in Ventura, CA.\nI want to thank Clarissa for sharing her wonderful insights into her creative process and letting us explore A Geek\u2019s Guide to Cross-Stitch, a book that looks like an amazing trek into space. As a geeky parent, I want to congratulate Clarissa on completing her book. She\u2019s an amazing inspiration to any parent hoping to go after a dream project and then making it happen.",

        "title": "I Love Good Romantic Comedy: Stephanie Burgis | Fantasy Magazine",
        "raw_content": "Stephanie Burgis (stephanieburgis.com) is an American writer who lives in England with her husband, Patrick Samphire, their baby, and their crazy-sweet border collie mix. Her short fiction has appeared in several magazines including Strange Horizons, Beneath Ceaseless Skies, and Black Static. Her Regency fantasy trilogy for ages 10 and up, The Unladylike Adventures of Kat Stephenson, will be published in 2010, 2011, and 2012. Her story, \u201cOfferings,\u201d runs this week at Fantasy Magazine.\nThe word \u201cofferings\u201d is full of connotations. One can consider an offering a present, of course, but it also has a religious meaning. To leave an \u201coffering\u201d often involves some form of sacrifice, some measure of worship and reverence. What does the title, \u201cOfferings,\u201d mean to you?\nOn a practical level, the heroine of the story is used to accepting ritual offerings in exchange for her magical blessings. By the end of the story, though, she\u2019s also forced to face the more personal, emotional opportunities that have been offered to her, which she\u2019s ignored and even hidden from for a long time. For me, the title evokes both of those meanings.\nDespite the fantastic setting and characters, \u201cOfferings\u201d reads like a light Victorian romantic comedy. How do you think this came about? What are your influences?\nI love good romantic comedy, both reading and writing it, and I\u2019ve certainly been influenced by all my favorite comedy authors, from Jane Austen to PG Wodehouse to Georgette Heyer.\nThe protagonist is never given a name in the story. She is known simply as \u201cThe Witch.\u201d Was this intentional? What does it say about your protagonist?\nIt was intentional, because it\u2019s the way she sees herself. She\u2019s buried herself in her role as a means of self-defense, to hide from her own personal regrets and the dreams she thinks she\u2019s lost. It\u2019s something that a lot of people do in real life, too (whether that comforting, larger role is \u201cwitch\u201d, \u201cCEO\u201d or \u201csupermom\u201d). It can be awfully tempting to escape from our own insecurities that way, although it never really works out in the long run\u2026\nAbout your protagonist in the story, the narration explains \u201cAlexander had always said she had a mind as rigidly shut to opposing theories as any Victorian school textbook.\u201d This tendency to shoot down any opposing ideal seems to isolate your protagonist from the rest of the world. Do you feel that rigid ideologies isolate people in general?\nIn the following passage, you hint that \u201cThe Witch\u201d has been hurt by love to the point that she no longer hopes for love:\nIt had been a long time since she\u2019d wished love for herself. That had been the point of accepting the old witch\u2019s offer of this house and all the responsibilities that came with it. That was the reason behind the house\u2019s rules.\nThe image of \u201cThe Witch\u201d is often seen as a solitary figure, as an old spinster in fairy tales and literature. In your story, \u201cThe Witch\u201d is described as a modern, professional woman, the kind who wears clean business suits and takes care of her appearance, but she is still alone. In order to be \u201cThe Witch\u201d must she be alone?\nThat\u2019s certainly what she believes, anyway . . .\nAt one point in the story, \u201cThe Witch\u201d jumps into a lake and it states \u201cThe water was cold and piercing, like knives, or knowledge.\u201d Is knowledge \u201ccold and piercing\u201d in your opinion?\nIt can be, when it\u2019s something we don\u2019t want to face.\nI understand you have a novel coming out in 2010 from Atheneum Books (A Most Improper Magick). Congratulations! Would you like to tell us a little about your debut as a novelist? Is there anything else we have to look forward to in the months ahead from Stephanie Burgis?\nThank you! A Most Improper Magick is the first book in a Regency fantasy trilogy for 10-15-year-olds, The Unladylike Adventures of Kat Stephenson. It\u2019s a romantic comedy-slash-fantasy adventure, starring the irrepressible Kat. In her 19th-century society, magic is the greatest scandal of all, but there\u2019s nothing Kat won\u2019t do to win her older sisters their true loves . . . even if she has to dress as a boy, confront an ancient and secretive magical Order, and battle a highwayman along the way!\nT.J.

        "raw_content": "First of all I must apologise to my faithful readers (all two of you, including my mum), as I have not written as much as I should have this year, mainly because of a part-time university course which has taken up my time on top of work and other things. To think I use to clock up at forty posts per month when I started! Nearly five years have passed since I have launched this blog, which I didn't expect to last, but I have valiantly carried on, even though nagging feelings of \"why do I do this exactly?\" have often been at the forefront of my mind. But it would be a shame to give up after all this time, so I intend to write a lot more next year. Anyhow, the time has come to reflect on the previous year and make a list of my favourite films of 2015.\nAs per previous years, American independent cinema dominates, proving to be in rude health and as versatile as ever. And as usual, despite often scrapping the bottom of the horror barrel, FrightFest has a film featured, two even. It has also been a great year in Cannes, with two films of this year's edition featuring, and at least two more guaranteed to feature in next year's list. I have sticked to a ranking based on UK release dates (which includes VOD if the film had no theatrical releases) as it makes it easier to compare with other lists.\n20) Wild by Jean-Marc Vall\u00e9e\nI expecting nothing from this, and only pretty much went to see it for the pretty landscapes. How mistaken I was. The true story of a woman at the crossroad of a messy life, who hikes the Pacific Trail Coast to find herself and some purpose, this is far from the sentimental, life-affirming atrocity it sounds like. Rather, Wild is a subtle and quietly moving tale, which does not gloss over some of the less salubrious elements of its story, and purposefully keeps it mostly uneventful, making it all the more realistic and affecting in the process.\n19) Crimson Peak by Guillermo del Toro\nSomehow under appreciated, and possibly missold as a scary ghost story as opposed to the doomed gothic romance it truly is, Crimson Peak is a sumptuous tribute to a certain kind of old school genre cinema, that never feels burdened by its references. Guillermo del Toro has an exquisite visual talent that has never been more in evidence than in here, and its great trio of leading actors brings in a welcome emotional depth.\n18) White Bird in a Blizzard by Gregg Araki\nThe American director Gregg Araki has remained one of the last few true indie directors from the 90's wave, and has divided his work between lighter pop-art objects and more serious propositions. Here this is more the latter with a touch of the former, with a coming of age story imbued with an unexpected melancholic vibe. Shailene Woodley impresses, but the films belongs to Eva Green in a star performance as a glamorous and unhappy housewife.\n17) Star Wars: The Force Awakens by JJ Abrams\nI am a casual Star Wars fan, having loved the original trilogy as a child but not really engaged with its extended universe (and having loathed the prequels). And this is everything I could have asked for in a sequel, and I never knew JJ Abrams had it in him to deliver it, having disliked anything he has done so far. The nostalgia works at full volume but there is a perfect balance between old and new elements, and the film is a great dialogue between generations of characters, actors and cinema. It is also a fantastically entertaining throwback to a less frenetic, more story driven type of blockbusters. When there is so much to be depressed about in the world nowadays, that a big film can bring so many audiences and generation together makes you keep your faith in cinema.\n16) Tangerine by Sean Baker\nDon't be put off by the crowd-pleasing appearance and subject, this wasn't the Priscilla Queen of the Desert knock off I was anticipating (thankfully!). Tangerine is deceptively brilliant, moving and energetic, mainly thanks to a very strong script that effortlessly weaves in some cracking lines, most of them improvised by its fantastic cast. At times it almost feels like a lo-fi screwball Short Cuts (1993), all the way to an absolutely hilarious finale. And yet the director also slips in some fleeting, heart-breaking moments that stay with you, and never glosses over some of the less salubrious elements of the world he depicts. One of this year's best surprises.",

        "raw_content": "Fritz Stuckenberg counts among the most important representatives of German Expressionism. After several studies of arts, among others architecture and painting, Fritz Stuckenberg moved to Paris, the then center of avant-garde art, in 1907. It was in this extremely fruitful environment that his art came to full bloom. However, contact with German avant-garde artists remained his main driving force after the return to his home country in 1912. The artist showed works in Herwarth Walden's \"Sturm\" exhibition as well as in joint exhibitions with Dada artists, he came in contact with members of the Bauhaus and joined the \"Novembergruppe\".\nIn terms of style, his expressive paintings, which combine both figurative as well as abstract tendencies, are characterized by a refined coloring. His graphic works captivate the observer with their subtle lines and a delicate palette.\nDefamed as 'degenerate' by the National Socialists, Fritz Stuckenberg's oeuvre was increasingly honored in exhibitions and a permanent representation in the 'St\u00e4dtische Galerie' Delmenhorst in recent times.",

        "raw_content": "2014, Daily Meme's, Tipsy Tuesday\nA birthday is a great time to celebrate how special a person is to you. You want to show them how much you care, but it can be challenging to find just the right gift without blowing your budget. If you\u2019re searching for a birthday gift they\u2019ll remember, follow these easy steps.\nConsider Their Interests\nBefore you start shopping, it\u2019s important to consider your recipient\u2019s needs and interests. You love buying your granddaughter fancy new dresses, but she would rather have new softball supplies for her upcoming season. This step can be a little tricky if you\u2019re purchasing for someone you don\u2019t know very well or don\u2019t see that often. However, you can find some clues about what they like with a little work. Check out your son in-law\u2019s Facebook page to see what he\u2019s interested in, or ask your brother what your teenage niece has on her birthday list this year.\nThere are many different items that are marketed as great gifts, but you don\u2019t want to limit yourself to these items. Instead of buying your nephew another car set to add to his immense collection, make an arts and crafts kit to increase his creativity and spur his imagination. Clothing items and accessories can also be memorable gifts. Shop at SneakerKing.com to find the perfect new shoes for your friend who loves to run, or pick up a sports shirt for the baseball fan in your life.\nIf you want to really make an impact, consider giving an experience and not just a gift. Your grandson already has more toys than he can play with, but he would love spending a day with you at the playground and going to get ice cream. Giving an experience is an especially good choice if you\u2019re working with a limited budget, although it works best for close friends or family members. Whether you choose to give a night of free babysitting, a home-cooked meal, a special day out with your favorite child or another experience, it\u2019s a special gift that is sure to be long remembered by your recipient.\nChoosing the right birthday gift doesn\u2019t have to cost a fortune. Instead, it should be tailored to meet the needs of your recipient. With a little thought and creativity, you can give the perfect gift while still keeping your budget intact.\nHello Kitty Large Face Quartz Watch, Pouch & ...\nPast Week\u2019s Posts at FCS Gymboree Big Red Balloon Semi-Annual Sale \u2013 Up to 75% off",

        "raw_content": "Another Confession 0 and 1 Guest are viewing this topic. \u00ab previous next \u00bb\n: Another Confession ( 9584 )\nAnother Confession\nThough not nearly as intriguing as rrpower's...\nThis was the third of the Dollars trilogy that I saw, right after The Good, the Bad and the Ugly. I knew it was part of the trilogy and just rented it for that reason without reading anything about it. Only Clint's picture was on the box too. So imagine my surprise during that first scene on the train when the \"reverend\" lowers his bible and it's...aaaah! It's Angel Eyes! He's back from the dead!! Head for the hills!\nAlthough I did figure out that he wasn't actually Angel Eyes, I wasn't sure whether he was bad or good until the scene where he and Manco play their footsies game out in the street. But then, maybe Leone meant to keep us guessing up until then.\nRe: Another Confession\nIn fact, as titoli has argued so persuasively on another thread, the Dollars pictures are not a trilogy. I believe the term we finally settled on was \"trio.\"\nI don't think it's an actual trilogy myself. It's obvious.\nYes, they're not a trilogy as in a three-part story such as the Lord of the Rings films or Pirates of the Caribbean films. They are three separate stories which are loosely related, due to the possibility that they share the same main character. I would argue that while FOD and FFDM are stand-alones, GBU is meant to be viewed after the audience has seen at least one of the other two films. This is suggested by Blondie's appearance in the cemetary, fully garbed in the same costume as the other two films, including the poncho. This is the point where the audience is meant to say, \"Hey! Wait a minute! We've seen that guy before!\" and recognize him at least as the mysterious gunslinger, if not as Joe or Manco.\nThat point aside, would you say that Mortimer appears to be a sinister character up until the conclusion of the hat-shooting scene?\nActually no, tokyorose I saw this film first so I didn't have any idea or preconceived notion.\nQuote from: tokyorose on July 28, 2007, 08:50:02 AM\nIt's a touch the Master intended us to appreciate, certainly, but it merely alludes to the other films, it does not, IMHO, serve to announce Blondies \"true identity,\" as it were. Otherwise we're back to the trilogy idea. If the character is the same in all 3 films, the set, by definition, is a trilogy. But I don't think that is the case.\nAs i quoted somewhere else, Sergio Leone talked about it. And of course, it is not a \"traditional\" trilogy, but it IS a trilogy. This is the same character, no doubt about it. It doesn't mean that it is in the same \"life\"... the Man With No Name is a movie character, these films are not realistic. Don't forget Manco is able to shoot apples in a very far tree without aiming.\nSo, Sergio Leone refered to it as a trilogy sharing the same character: \"and at the end of GBU, he takes the costume he had in the previous movies, and rides to the south, to the adventures of a Fistful Of Dollars. That was my final trick for the audience. I like it: finishing the trilogy with a loop.\" (not exact quote).\nEx post facto rationalizations are less impressive than stated intentions before the fact. This is the guy who also gave credence to the OUATIA dream theory--but only after the film was already playing. There are times to trust what SL said, and times when it is best to be wary. This was always the case with Hitchcock as well. In interviews, you could get straight answers to technical questions, but ask about the content of his films, and Hitchcock would start piling on the evasions and outright falsehoods.\nSL knew a lot of things about the american old west at the point where he directed GBU. He knew about guns. He knew that, according to History, GBU takes palce first, then FOD, and then FAFDM (their are even references to the civil war s a past event in FAFDM). He also knew how powerful (i mean as a character) the man with no name character was. He knew people didn't know all that. He knew people were expecting Clint to have his poncho... and he plays with that. I don't care about the \"loop\" thing, that about 1000 people in the whole world were able to understand at this time (you have to know the three movie by heart and know a lot about weapons and history). I'm just pintpointing that it is OBVIOUS that the man with no name is the same character in every movie, eventhough his name changes.\nThe \"movie character\" thing is my theory, and i'm sure SL didn't even thought about it. But he did things this way. What I mean is : this is the same character. He has the same face, the same expressions, his reactions are always the same. He is like famous characters in fairy tales : you don't care what happen between each story, he exists just for one story, but you use the same character.\nbaba Yaga in the russian fairy tales. Pai Mei in chinese exploitation movies. The Man With No Name in Leone's movies. Leone was not conscious of that, this is what he did... but he knew that THIS IS the same character.\nI just cannot understand how it can be understood in another way... Look at Joe, look at Manco, look at Blondie, and try to assert this is not the same character. Come on...\nThere are differences, though. Joe responds to the \"holy family\" and acts to save them. Monco seems entirely motivated by money. Blondie is willing to surrender a very tidy sum for what amounts to a practical joke. These characters are close, it seems to me, but not necessarily identical.\nI like to fall back on my \"parallel worlds\" theory. The 3 characters exist in 3 separate universes and are roughly the same person, but they've had different life experiences that make them distinct from each other. Then there is the world of OUATITW, where Joe/Monco/Blondie never existed......\nChronologically by weapons & other facts used it should go:\nGBU - Civil War & Colt Navy's 1(862-63)\nFAFDM - Newspaper dates, Colt Peacemakers (post 1873)\nAFOD - Ramon uses a fully automatic machine gun (mid 1890's) (its not a Gatling Gun he's not cranking it) and the Mexican Soldiers are wearing Khaki uniforms, turn of the century\nAFOD - Ramon uses a fully automatic machine gun (mid 1890's)\nBut it's a fake?\nyes, a prop mans creation sort of a cross between a Maxim and a Gatling, but the mex uniforms also point to the same time period.\nWhat about Mortimer's Buntline Special (1889 i think)?\nso we completly agree...",

        "raw_content": "As her DNA test still reverberates, Sen. Elizabeth Warren\u2019s political operation shows fissures\nAlready battling controversy over her claimed Native American heritage, Sen. Elizabeth Warren is nearing a decision whether to seek the presidency with a second problem: fissures in the tightknit political operation that has guided her throughout her career.\nMindy Myers, who was one of the primary architects of Warren\u2019s political rise and has remained one of her close advisers, had been expected to play a senior role in the senator\u2019s campaign. But she has been in talks with several rival campaigns and is planning to meet soon with Rep. Beto O\u2019Rourke (D-Tex.), who is considering a presidential run.\nMyers ran Warren\u2019s 2012 U.S. Senate campaign and then served as her senate chief of staff, giving her a deep understanding of Warren\u2019s strengths and weaknesses.\nSince Hillary Clinton\u2019s defeat in 2016, Warren has been among the top-ranked potential candidates for the 2020 election. She built a massive strategic and get-out-the-vote team to help candidates in the 2018 elections, a move widely seen as a way to both ensure Democratic wins and build alliances in key early presidential states.\nBut she also stumbled notably in October, when she attempted to put to rest a controversy over her claim to Native American ancestors by releasing DNA results \u2014 a move that enraged tribal groups and other minorities concerned about her reliance on a test to measure ethnicity.\nThat episode injected uncertainty over the decision-making by Warren and her campaign staff and subjected her to both anger and mockery just as she was gearing up for a potential presidential effort.\nThose close to Warren have warned recently that while she is still widely expected to enter the race, there remains a chance that she decides against it.\n\u201cI don\u2019t have any sense she\u2019s made a final decision that she\u2019s running,\u201d said one Massachusetts Democrat close to her.\nAdding to the pressures on her was a cutting editorial Thursday by Warren\u2019s hometown newspaper, the Boston Globe, suggesting she rethink whether to enter the race. The Globe editorial page had called on Warren to run in 2016.\n\u201cWarren missed her moment in 2016, and there\u2019s reason to be skeptical of her prospective candidacy in 2020,\u201d the editorial board wrote, pointing out that Republican Gov. Charlie Baker won more votes than she did in their November reelection campaigns.\nA recent survey asking Massachusetts voters which candidate they would support in 2020 had Warren in third at just 11 percent even in her home state, which rival campaigns read as a sign of weakness. She trailed former vice president Joe Biden and Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.). O\u2019Rourke was behind her by only one percentage point.\n\u201cThose are warning signs from the voters who know her best,\u201d the Globe wrote in its editorial. \u201cWhile Warren is an effective and impactful senator with an important voice nationally, she has become a divisive figure. A unifying voice is what the country needs now after the polarizing politics of Donald Trump.\u201d\nMyers, as well as other top Warren\u2019s top aides, declined to comment for this article. Some close to the senator said it is possible that she could still have a role in a Warren campaign, but likely not the top job of campaign manager.\nThat role would likely be filled by another longtime Warren aide, Dan Geldon. Geldon, who was a student in Warren\u2019s class at Harvard Law School, has worked for her in a variety of capacities and has built deep ties among liberal groups that have formed Warren\u2019s base of support. He was director of youth outreach for the Democratic National Committee in 2004, and ran a 2008 House campaign for Rep. John Yarmuth (D-Ky.).\nWhen Warren first ran for Senate and burst onto the national scene by defeating Sen. Scott Brown (R-Mass.), she hired Myers as campaign manager and Geldon as senior adviser.\nAfter she won, Myers became her chief of staff and Geldon was her deputy chief of staff. Myers left in December 2015 to work on electing Senate Democrats, becoming the first woman to lead the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee. But she remained in the core nucleus of advisers that Warren relied upon, and was widely expected to return to her operation for the presidential campaign.\n\u201cMindy has been wonderful, and I can\u2019t overstate the positive influence she\u2019s had over the last four years,\u201d Warren said when Myers left her office. \u201cI\u2019m incredibly grateful to Mindy \u2014 for helping me win the Senate seat and for working every day to help me use this seat to level the playing field for hard-working families.\u201d\nBefore working for Warren, Myers ran Sen. Richard Blumenthal\u2019s Connecticut campaign in 2010 and Sheldon Whitehouse\u2019s in Rhode Island in 2006. She has never lost a race.\nIn a large crop of potential candidates, Warren is one of the few whose presidential decision could significantly affect the rest of the field.\nNew York magazine in July put her on the cover \u2014 jogging to a campaign rally, with the headline \u201cFront Runner?\u201d \u2014 and she would enter the race with one of the most daunting fundraising operations. At the end of her Senate reelection, she still had $12.5 million left in her campaign account, giving her an advantage in raising the kind of money needed.\nBut one of the biggest hurdles she has had to clear is explaining her claim of Native American heritage, which Republican critics, including President Trump, have used to argue she was seeking unfair advantage. A Globe review earlier this year found that ethnicity was not a factor in her career advancements.\nIn October, she took the extraordinary step of releasing the result of a DNA test that showed that Warren had a Native American ancestor between six and 10 generations ago. She sought to cast it as an ultimate act of transparency, and used it to call on Trump to release his tax returns.\nThat triggered both blowback from minorities and Native Americans and also criticism that she had submitted to a bully \u2014 precisely the opposite of her statements that she would be best positioned to aggressively take Trump on. So far, though, she has not expressed any regrets.\n\u201cI put it out there. It\u2019s on the Internet for anybody to see,\u201d she told the New York Times in a recent interview. \u201cPeople can make of it what they will. I\u2019m going to continue fighting on the issues that brought me to Washington.\u201d\nMichael Scherer contributed to this report.\nThe Trek Across the Border Veers Into More and More Remote Terrain\nEight years after Egypt\u2019s revolution, here\u2019s what we\u2019ve learned about social media and protest\nHow do resource-constrained countries commit to universal health care?\nAlso Last Night, Fox Had To Tell The Truth About The House\nPolitics Podcast: Julian Castro\u2019s Path To The 2020 Nomination\nThe Daily 202: Koch network poised to scale up efforts to remake K-12 education with a pilot project in five states\nChinese Spacecraft Nears Landing on Far Side of Moon\nNancy Pelosi: People Have To Believe We Will Win And Act Upon That Belief | AM Joy | MSNBC\nBrazil poised to elect a new president\nNew Finance Chair Maxine Waters On Investigating President Donald Trump | All In | MSNBC\nPARADISE, Calif. \u2014 One huge fire was caused by a spark set off by a man with a hammer, working on a fence post in a field of dry vegetation.

        "title": "Our Heritage -- First United Methodist Church of Geneva, Florida",
        "raw_content": "First Methodist Church of Geneva, Florida was organized as \"The Lake Harney Society of the Methodist Episcopal Church South\" on November 17, 1877. The first minister was Rev. Selwin D. Smith. The first meeting was held in a log schoolhouse which stood west of the cemetery. Later services were held in the homes of the members. It is recalled that regular prayer meetings were held at the home of Mr. and Mrs. S. D. Willams. On June 13, 1880 Andrew J. \"Uncle Jack\" Holder deeded a building site on the Northeast shore of Lake Geneva to three trustees. A church was erected there and was used until 1912. Services were held once a month by the Methodists and once a month by the Baptists, using the same building.\nCurrent Church Building Era 1911\nFrom early in its history the church had an active women's ministry as seen in records of the Women's Home Society, Women's Missionary Society, and the Ladies Aid. By 1940 all Methodist Women's organizations were reorganized under the name of Women's Society of Christian Service.\nA Sunday School was in place by December of 1885. S. J. Lotson organized the first one as \"The Sunday School of the Lake Harney Society.\" By 1905, the Epworth League was well organized. Four young men in the early years left the church to enter into ministry of various forms.\nThe freezes of 1894-95 caused such an exodus from Geneva, that the church had great difficulty to survive, as it did also during and after World War I, when many moved away. The depression of the 1930's caused the few remaining members to sell the lots in the N.E. Corner of the church property to Mrs. J. C. Bills in order to reroof the church. No home was built on the area sold, so when Alice Bryan Coffee Guyton, daughter of the donor of the land heard of the sale, she bought the land from Mrs. Bills and re-deeded them to the church with a reversion clause in the deed: \"If the land is not used for church purposes it returns to the Guyton family.\"\nAs the community grew the church was no longer centrally located, so on June 5, 1909, Mr. H. B. Coffee in a trade with J.P. Musselwhite and Wm. H. Howard, gave a tract of land for a new church and grounds. Quarterly Conference records for September 9, 1911 authorized the selling of the first church and the building of a new one at the present location on First Street. First services were held in 1912, and the finishing work was done and debts paid with the new building dedicated in November 1913.\nFor many years Geneva was a point on a circuit of the Florida Conference belt in several different districts, Jacksonville being the first, followed by DeLand, and now East-Central. The first circuit included Oviedo, Chuluota, Osteen, and Geneva. Some years later, Geneva, Oviedo and Ebenezer were a charge. Geneva and Mims were together from 1927 to 1940.\nA Fellowship Hall was erected West of the church in 1959 which has proved useful in many ways including use by Sunday School classes. At the present time it serves as the primary location for the Christian Child Development Center.\nSunday School classrooms were added to the North side of the Fellowship Hall in 1967.\nIn 1973 the church broke ground and built the parsonage. Unsworth Builders of Sanford was the builder. There were so many donations for the building and furnishings that the debt was paid off in full -- A big feather in the cap of such a small church.\nIn 1976, the church again took on a building project. This church had not been in debt and the only way we could have the \"Youth Hall\" was to secure a loan from a bank -- so this was done and the building began. The interior was completed in time for its consecration during the Centennial Celebration, on October 23, 1977. The celebration was held a few weeks early to accommodate the schedule of Bishop Joel McDavid who joined us for the celebration. This was the first time a Bishop had visited the church. During the celebration Bessie Proctor Herman returned to its home one of the first known gifts to the church, the silver communion cup, presented by Ida Leonard Raulerson.\n1979 found the church anticipating a budget that would support a full-time pastor. At the 1980 annual charge conference our goal was to help our brothers and sisters in the Oak Grove Church rebuild after being destroyed by an arson fire.\nClick here for a list of Ministers who have served the church.",

        "title": "Ghost Hunting Theories: Is Your Psychic a Mentalist?",
        "raw_content": "Is Your Psychic a Mentalist?\nI encourage people try the experience of having a psychic read, but I strongly caution against becoming dependent on any source, no matter how remarkable, to get \"inside\" information. There is nothing controlled or 100% accurate about reads. With even the best psychic, one day is \"on\" and another is \"off.\" It all depends on the correlations and interpretations they are making at that time.\nBut how do you know if you have the real deal?\nAccording to Wikipedia, a cold reading is \u201ca series of techniques used by mentalists, illusionists, fortune tellers, psychics, and mediums to determine or express details about another person, often in order to convince them that the reader knows much more about a subject than they actually do. Without prior knowledge of a person, a practiced cold reader can still quickly obtain a great deal of information about the subject by analyzing the person's body language, age, clothing or fashion, hairstyle, gender, sexual orientation, religion, race or ethnicity, level of education, manner of speech, place of origin, etc. Cold readers commonly employ high probability guesses about the subject, quickly picking up on signals from their subjects as to whether their guesses are in the right direction or not, and then emphasizing and reinforcing any chance connections the subjects acknowledge while quickly moving on from missed guesses.\u201d\nTechniques to watch for (you've easily seen TV psychics use these a lot):\n\u201cShotgunning\u201d (Wikipedia) \u201cA commonly-used cold reading technique used, among others, by television psychics and spiritual mediums. The psychic or reader slowly offers a huge quantity of very general information, often to an entire audience (some of which is very likely to be correct, near correct or at the very least, provocative or evocative to someone present), observes their subjects' reactions (especially their body language), and then narrows the scope, acknowledging particular people or concepts and refining the original statements according to those reactions to promote an emotional response.\u201d\nExample: \"I sense an older male figure in your life, who wants you to know whilst you may have had disagreements in your life, he still loved you.\"\n\u201cBarnum Statements\u201d (Wikipedia) \u201cnamed after P.T. Barnum, the American showman) are statements that seem personal, yet apply to many people. And while seemingly specific, such statements are often open-ended or give the reader the maximum amount of \"wiggle room\" in a reading. They are designed to elicit identifying responses from people. The statements can then be developed into longer and more sophisticated paragraphs and seem to reveal great amounts of detail about a person. The effect relies in part on the eagerness of people to fill in details and make connections between what is said and some aspect of their own lives (often searching their entire life's history to find some connection, or reinterpreting the statement in any number of different possible ways so as to make it apply to themselves). A talented and charismatic reader can sometimes even bully a subject into admitting a connection, demanding over and over that they acknowledge a particular statement as having some relevance and maintaining that they just aren't thinking hard enough, or are repressing some important memory.\u201d\nExample: \"You had an accident when you were a child involving water.\u201d\n\u201cThe Rainbow Ruse\u201d (Wikipedia) \u201cThe rainbow ruse is a crafted statement which simultaneously awards the subject with a specific personality trait, as well as the opposite of that trait. With such a phrase, a cold reader can \"cover all possibilities\" and appear to have made an accurate deduction in the mind of the subject, despite the fact that a rainbow ruse statement is vague and contradictory. This technique is used since personality traits are not quantifiable, and also because nearly everybody has experienced both sides of a particular emotion at some time in their lives.\u201dExample: \"I would say that you are mostly shy and quiet, but when the mood strikes you, you can easily become the center of attention.\"\nPerspective: One time, a friend begged me to get a reading after she got one. I humored her. I wasn\u2019t expecting anything extraordinary. Their wasn\u2019t a psychic sensation in the whole shop. I sat down and the woman took my hand and tried the shock factor. \u201cYou\u2019re not at fault! You must stop feeling so guilty!\u201d A brilliant technique to make me rush through my mind for anything I might feel guilty about. Surely we all regret something. I gave her credit for technique. Like a good fly fisherman, she cast her line and could have hooked a sucker. Luckily, I expected her to play this game. I not only had no feelings of guilt in my consciousness, but as she spoke, she told me I should consider leaving my boyfriend, he\u2019ll never marry me (I was married for decades at the time). She proceeded to tell me to repaint the room I painted red (no red in my house-I hate the color). I finally just got up and left while she was in mid sentence. A less savvy person might have replaced \"boyfriend\" with \"husband,\" and considered \"I once thought about painting my room red,\" anything to make it \"fit.\"\nThis is not to say psychics don\u2019t exist. I know for a fact that they do, as I myself have skills that I can neither explain or often times control.\nAutumnforest (my online psychic testing, just one of MANY such hits - but even with my consistent accuracy, a reading of a person is vastly different than the turn of a card)\nWhen you get a reading from a psychic, you need to ask yourself \u201chow specific is this to me, or is it a broad statement that fits many?\u201d \u201cAre they waiting too much for me to respond and lead them in the right direction?\u201d \u201cIs this the kind of thing I might hear from a counselor and adviser?\u201d\nA good psychic too will have a \"serendipity\" where they say something like \"you should always choose the yellow\" and you feel your stomach sink because just that day you were shopping and debating over yellow and blue for a new shirt and not sure which looks better. They have a tendency to say something timely.\nI personally won't do a reading unless I can turn away from the person and the person says nothing while I'm doing the reading but may take notes if they wish. I don't want a reaction from them that will lead me down a wrong path or dead end and I do not want to read their expressions and postures. That is a sign of someone who is not baiting. In fact, attempt to sit through a reading, looking down at your lap, saying nothing and see how long the psychic can handle it.\nSomeone tapping into you psychically for a living shouldn\u2019t be asking you to make decisions based on their findings, have you pour your heart out to them so that they know too much of your personal lives and therefore can lead you into thinking they know you so well, or request that you come back again and again because you're getting \"closer\" to some important knowledge.\nAlways take note how much you speak versus how much they speak.\nI\u2019ll be brutally honest. Anyone making money as a psychic may not have your best interests in mind. It\u2019s a business. One in which you coming back is critically important, just like your counselor or psychiatrist. Your dependence on them assures their income.\nWe don\u2019t have any regulations on psychics, no testing, certification, or a board of examiners like medical professionals have. As a consumer, you need to be educated, suspicious, and cautious. It can be very therapeutic for some folks who need to deal with grief or to see what they are doing wrong in their lives and for the counseling alone it can be helpful, but always be cautious and feel free to leave and not return if you have gotten what you want out of the experience.\nDon't do's\nDo not be snagged by emotional subjects, such as the dead. It is easy for a psychic to utilize your unresolved grief and make you feel better and more resolved (note the infamous television psychic with the bad dialect and fake nails). Anyone who sits with you and seems to relate to you your grief is going to win your undying devotion.\nDo not follow a psychic referral to other practitioners, such as a feng shui specialist or possibly someone who does cleansings. This is a popular technique to keep recirculating you between them, each of them telling you that you need to revisit the other one again for more work.\nDo not become dependent on a psychic to tell you what to do. You just put them in a position of power like a clergyman and that can be abused for their own means.\nDo not pay them extra money to remove \"attachments\" or give you \"magic\" for some desired outcome. You might as well burn the money while you chant the outcome you want. People get taken by these techniques all the time. Remain icy about your wallet.\nDo keep yourself open to signs of spontaneous information that did not come from you, your conversation, or broad statements. I had a psychic friend contact me recently and she said \"why do I hear a man with a yankee dialect calling you Sherry?\" Oddly, I had acquired a friend from the north who called me by my childhood nickname. She then gave me a statement she heard him saying and, yes, he had said that very odd and unusual statement the day prior to me on a phone call. I had not spoken to anyone about it. This proved to me something I suspected about her - she is well tuned to me. Not many people can read me, but she has a spontaneous connection. The truth is, some psychics' energies do not jive with your own, and some are astonishingly tapped.\nDo feel free to go back again if you get a good reading and see if you are still being tapped effectively. If you feel the experience is a positive one and not being abused, then definitely refer friends. Psychics who work at this are under enormous pressure and the genuine ones are under more pressure because they have to make up for the bad ones. It's kind of like dentists - a good dentist has to try to calm you a lot more after bad dentist experiences.\nDo try different kinds of reads to find out what works for you. Some enjoy tarot card reads, others psychic mediums to talk to the dead, and others might like aura photos. Find what sings to you and periodically go back in to see how things have evolved for you. I have enjoyed aura photos for many years and a yearly check shows me much including the fact that I consistently know where spirit energy is around me, where I get my psychic information from and even a loved one over my shoulder.\nHere, I announced I would bring forward the spirits that are always with me. Interesting shapes around me.\nHere, I said I would look up where I get my psychic information from and ended up with a pinkish white light there.\nHere, I said my brother who died a few weeks prior was over my right shoulder.\nThere are plenty of healers, mediums, tarot card readers, palm readers, aura photographers and more. Don't be afraid of seeing a psychic, but be a properly educated consumer.\nPhone Psychic January 25, 2018 at 12:09 AM\nA phone psychic can give you insight into your current and future romantic relationships. They are able to counsel you about the best way to pursue love, whether you are currently involved with a partner, or if you are single and still looking for that special someone.

        "raw_content": "2013-05-31. A Floating Wind Tower Is Launched in Maine.\nFor GSS Energy Use chapter 4. Excerpt: One reason that offshore wind has not caught on in the United States is the steep cost of erecting a tower in the water, but researchers at the University of Maine tried another approach on Friday by launching a floating wind machine. It is the first offshore wind installation in United States waters, according to the Energy Department, which helped pay for it. The tower, launched in Brewer, Me., sits on three hollow concrete tubes and will be anchored in the Gulf of Maine. It is a mere 20 kilowatts in capacity, an amount of power that could be soaked up by a handful of big suburban houses on a hot summer day. But it is one-eighth the dimensions of the one the researchers hope to deploy in the next few years, a gigantic 6-megawatt model, with each blade as long as the wingspan of a Boeing 747. ...it will have two big advantages over machines on land, according to Habib J. Dagher, a professor of civil engineering at the university. Onshore wind machines produce most of their energy at night, when it is least valuable to utilities buying the power, but this one will catch the predictable, strong breezes that come up every sunny summer afternoon, he said, when the sun heats the land more than the sea, creating an onshore breeze.... http://www.nytimes.com/2013/06/01/business/energy-environment/a-floating-wind-tower-is-launched-in-maine.html.

        "title": "BEFRIENDING PAIN",
        "raw_content": "The first thing you normally require of your friends is that they be human beings! A friend is someone to hang out with, who will keep the conversation going and stand up for you in tough times. That kind of friendship is one of the sweetest things in life. But I want to write here about a different kind of friendship: broader - so broad that it can include just about anything!\nThis friendship can be with persons, yes, but it can also be with a thing, a place, a situation\u2026 or even with things that challenge us or make us suffer. The point I want to make is that all of these can also be our guide, our teacher. There is a saying that when the student is ready, the teacher appears. Whether we are ready or not, teachers are constantly appearing in our lives, but sometimes it is difficult to recognise them because we are looking for someone who matches our idea of \u2018teacher.\u2019 Or, we regard this person or thing as an obstacle in our life, rather than as something that can awaken us to life\u2019s meaning.\nThere was once a famous spiritual teacher named Gurdjieff, a Russian, born in 1877, died in 1949. In his community there was a very difficult person who seemed to rub everyone up the wrong way. One day, Gurdjieff learned that the man had left the community because no one liked him. Gurdjieff went in search of him and begged him to return, because he saw that this man was in fact a great \u2018teacher\u2019, without knowing it; he brought people to their edge - the only place where you learn anything.\nIn every community, in every group, in almost every family, there are almost impossible people. And each of us is the impossible person for the others at some time or other! Even saints are often known to be impossible. A child, praying, was heard to say, \u201c\u2026the holy impossibles Peter and Paul.\u201d We may think that the world would be better without impossible persons, but remember Gurdjieff! An Italian cardinal said recently (in reference to criticism of the Church), \u201cOne who loves does not criticise.\u201d I would prefer to say, \u201cOne who is perfectly indifferent, who doesn\u2019t give a fig one way or the other, doesn\u2019t criticise.\u201d But people who love, and people who hate, both criticise: one out of love, the other out of hate. Jesus often criticised severely because he cared and loved beyond measure. Your indifferent friends never criticise you; your true friends always do, in one way or another (to your face, of course!).\nSometimes it may be an illness that becomes our new teacher, or a bereavement, or the birth of a child.\u2026 Anything that shakes us out of our slumber, and opens us to wider and deeper experience, is a spiritual friend worthy of gratitude.\nIt may be difficult to regard a painful experience as a friend. We instinctively want to push such experiences away, or grasp something else by way of compensation. But wisdom lies in learning to sit in the midst of our suffering, much as we would do with someone in need. Just sit, just watch, just be present, just taste and touch your suffering. Keep that inner soft spot soft. Don\u2019t build a hard shell around it. Don\u2019t give in to blaming others, or life (or even yourself) for your suffering. Just stay with it, as you would stay with a frightened and weeping child. \u201cTake care of your suffering,\u201d someone said once. It is your best teacher. It may become your best friend.",

I had a difficult time following the chain of masters and homes Douglass went through, who was his \"old master\" and when one master sent him to live with someone else, did the master remain his master, or did he come to be under a new and different master?\nI was wondering really the same thing but I think that his old master is Captain Anthony. He says that that was his first master and I would guess that his first master is his old master. But I don't know for sure.\nHmmm....I think it's Captain Anthony also, but I got the impression that Captain Anthony worked for Colonel Lloyd.

        "raw_content": "I really enjoy the annual practice of picking a Word for the Year and thinking about how I can use the word as a starting point to improve my life and the way I do things or to bring focus to something that matters to me at that time.\n(image courtesy of Harlequin Sister's creative photography skills)\nIn recent years I have been picking a word for the year (WOTY) to motivate and guide me with some turning out more appropriate than others:\nIn 2011 my word was courage as I was keen to try new things and new directions in my life.\nIn 2012 I didn't pick a word as I was expecting Darling that year and struggling to stay sane through a busy time at work and severe nausea, so in hindsight I think patience would have been a good one.\nIn 2013 the word was discipline - in my eating habits, spending and family routines \u2013 I felt that I was very bad in being disciplined at these and by the end of the year I didn\u2019t feel that I had seen much improvement.\nIn 2014 the word was focus \u2013 I had so many plans and felt so clear about how I would achieve them. However I soon found myself pregnant with Baby and every one of those plans went out the window, first because my body felt like it was breaking down under the pressure of a fifth pregnancy and then because my mind could barely keep up with the demands of five children and extended family. I have no idea what the word should have been during that - maybe acceptance would have been a good one.\nMy word for 2015 was shukr \u2013 gratefulness. I wanted to practise gratitude \u2013 for all that Allah (SWT) has blessed us with \u2013 the things we remember and those we don\u2019t. My intention was to become more grateful for every big and small blessing in my life, but more than anything else it made me realise how much we have and how little gratefulness we show for it. So gratefulness will be an ongoing theme for me and one that I hope to work on and pray for indefinitely.\nMy word for 2016 was health. I felt that if I got this right it would impact so many areas of my life \u2013 my energy levels, my confidence if I lose weight, my long-term health, my budget, my conscience \u2013 I wanted to get my family eating as healthily as possible and to enjoy cooking good, healthy food. What changed during this year was that I tried to blog a monthly update on how I was doing with this WOTY \u2013 what I was trying to differently and what I was learning. I only managed to do this for part of the year, but it really helped me to reflect and to keep focus.\nMy word for 2017 is Salah, or prayer. There are a number of reasons for this. For all of the effort we put into trying to achieve our goals and improve our lives, I have always felt that the one thing that can really help me is salah and as part of that dua. Again and again I have come across advice and examples from the Quran and sunnah of the way salah has been used to fulfil needs. Whether this has been asking for your needs through supplication in your five daily prayers or through the optional prayers such as tahajjud, the night prayer:\nIt is narrated by Abu Hurairah (ra) that Allah\u2019s Apostle (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) said: \u201cOur Lord, the Blessed, the Superior, comes every night down on the nearest Heaven to us, when the last third of the night remains, saying, \u201cIs there anyone to invoke Me, so that I may respond to invocation? Is there anyone to ask Me, so that I may grant him his request? Is there anyone seeking My forgiveness, so that I may forgive him?\u201d\u201d (Bukhari)\nAbu Hurairah (ra) reports that the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) said: \u201cThe best prayer after the obligatory prayers is the night prayer.\u201d (Muslim)\n''The Dua made at tahajjud is like an arrow that does not miss its target.'' \u2014 Imaam Ash Shafi (ra)\nI have also been quite self-conscious of my prayers in the past. I am mindful that the quality and concentration of my salah could be much better. Part of this is the busy-ness of life and the distractions of being a mother, but a bigger part is about not allowing those distractions to take away from the quality of my salah. I think developing or improving the ability doing this will also help me to become a calmer, more conscious person that can attend to what is important without being pulled away by what seems urgent all the time.\nAt the same time, the idea that salah could be the coolness of my eyes is something that seems so beautiful, but so far out of reach:\nThe Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) said \u201cCoolness of my eyes lies in Salah\u201d (Ahmad, An-Nasa'i)\nTo be able to pray five times a day, to truly enjoy it and find such an intensity of happiness in it that you call it the coolness of your eyes, seems like such a blessing and something to truly aspire to.\nThere are a number of things that I want to do to improve my salah and through it my life insh\u2019Allah:\nLearn about salah \u2013 I want to review my recitation in salah and whether the movements and positions are accurate. This may seem very basic, but I have run through salah a number of times in halaqah\u2019s (study circles), and every single time there has room for improvement, whether in the detail of the position or the pronunciation of a single word.\nI would also like to study a little more about the benefits and virtues of salah, examples from the sunnah and also the punishments for salah. I believe that these are the things that will help to inspire and motivate me insh\u2019Allah\nReflect on salah \u2013 I want to spend a little time reflecting on the words and the meanings in salah.\nDedicate more time to salah \u2013 I often miss the nawafil part of my prayers and sometimes when I am harried the sunnah part. I keep reminding myself that our purpose here and the most important thing for us to prioritise and allocate enough time to is worship:\nAnd I did not create the jinn and mankind except to worship Me. ~ Quran 51:56\nWith this in mind, I want to try and pray my sunnah and nawafil. I want to take a deep breath and let go of the daily to-do lists and household tasks and let the children wait for what they need when it is time for prayer.\nMy older two children pray, but Gorgeous has been a bit more averse to salah, saying he is too young and that I can\u2019t make him until he is 10, which he is this year. So I hope to bring him on this journey with me and get him to see prayer as an opportunity and a way to connect with Allah (SWT).\nWhat would your word or phrase for 2017 be?\nThe Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) said: \u201cPrayer is the best thing to be occupied with,, so perform as much of it as you can.\u201d (Ahmad)\nThe Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) said: \u201cThe first thing for which the slave will be held accountable for on the day of Resurrection is his prayer; if it is good (by performing it properly and on time), then all his affairs will be good, and if it is ruined (by neglecting it), then all his affairs will be ruined.\u201d (At-Tabaraani)\nThe Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) said: \u201cWhen any one of you stands to pray, he is conversing with his Lord, so let him pay attention to how he speaks to Him.\u201d (al-Haakim, al-Mustadrak, 1/236; Saheeh al-Jaami\u2019, 1538).\nThe Prophet of Allah (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) is quoted to have said to Abu Dharr: \"Two light units of Prayer offered with contemplation are better than a whole night spent in worship.\" (Bihar al-Anwar, Volume 74, Page 82 and Wasa'il al-Shi'ah, iv, 686)\nWord for 2011: Courage\nWord for 2014: Focus\nWord for 2015: Shukr\nLabels: Word of the Year, Worship\nCurly Fry 10 January, 2017\nI think I should take a leaf out of this and dedicate a theme for this year. So far, it's been attempting to getting to work early for 2017, and learn a new skill like sewing!\nUmm Shareef 22 January, 2017\nSalah is a lovely choice as word of the year. I feel very much like you that there is so much I could do to improve my salah, from praying all my Sunnah and nafl to varying my recitation in salah more. I am also working on improving kushoo which can be very variable.\nI hope that you will be able to guide young Georgeous to salah this year. It is not unusual for kids to resist at his age, but they need to understand that missing salah has consequences so sometimes a firm hand is needed.",

Success is measured in many different ways- personal success comes in the form of being able to look at something you have done or achieved with a sense of genuine pride. At Hendre, we aim to provide our children with opportunities to make themselves proud every day.\nAll learning experiences are based on the acquisition, development and application of 3 key skill areas:\nLiteracy (oracy, reading and writing skills)\nNumeracy (numerical reasoning, number, measuring, data handling skills)\nDigital Competency (Information and communication technology skills)\nThese skills are planned progressively using the Literacy & Numeracy Framework and over-arch the subjects of the National Curriculum which are taught through a mixture of:\nDiscreet subject teaching- the core subjects of English, Maths and Science as well as Welsh which is taught as a second language and PE.\nCross-curricular themes- planned and taught over a term or half-term\nClass teachers have the responsibility for teaching all aspects of the curriculum and ensuring they teach the required areas appropriate to the particular age and ability range of the children in the class.\nLessons are taught in a variety of ways. Some teaching is on an individual basis, some in small groups, some as a whole class, differentiated to cater for the needs of all learners. The children are sometimes grouped in ability, sometimes in friendship groups. The need will depend on the demands of the lesson and the requirements for teaching and learning at the time. Children are encouraged to be active stakeholders in their learning, and learning experiences are designed to be relevant, child-centred, experiential and fun.\nThe curriculum and its learning experiences are enriched in a variety of exciting and fun ways. Through a range of educational trips and visits, in-school presentations or workshops by visiting specialists or community partners, outdoor learning in the school grounds, and opportunities for specialist learning for smaller groups in the form of instrumental music tuition or sports coaching. Children who are identified as requiring additional support or challenge in addition to their usual classroom activities may receive tailored programmes in Literacy or Numeracy from school-based or peripatetic specialist support staff.\nIn addition, the school offers a wide range of very popular extra-curricular activities in the form of lunchtime and after-school clubs. These cover a variety of sporting activities from rugby to athletics and from golf to karate; performing arts- drama, singing and dance; eco-related activities and computer coding and green screen technology.\nHendre Junior School is a Lead Creative School, actively promoting and delivering creative ways of thinking, teaching and learning, with teachers who are keen to embrace and implement new ideas and approaches to make the children\u2019s learning as fresh and invigorating as they possibly can.",

That is, do women who win in the supporting-actress category really watch their careers dry up and blow away afterward?\nWell, not always, of course. Not even most of the time, really.\nBut the \"curse\" rumor continues to crop up every year around Oscar season, and it has a history that goes back to the early '60s, when Rita Moreno won a supporting Oscar for \"West Side Story,\" and her film career subsequently sputtered. Moreno actually had a fairly high-profile TV and stage career in the '60s, '70s and into the '80s, but she never again won a major role in an important movie.\nNone of this is to say that Moreno isn't a talented actress.\nBut the Oscar Curse is no respecter of talent.\nAnd a look back at the winners since \"West Side Story\" in 1961 reveals that it has definitely been a hit-and-miss affair.\nAfter all, winners who have gone on to stardom and high-profile careers include Goldie Hawn, who won in 1969 for \"Cactus Flower\"; Meryl Streep, 1979 winner for \"Kramer vs. Kramer\"; and Jessica Lange, \"Tootsie\" in 1982.\nOn the other end of the spectrum is Geena Davis, 1988 winner for \"The Accidental Tourist,\" who is often cited as a prime Oscar Curse example for her surprising descent in a long line of mediocre-to-awful box-office failures (following two more hits in the early '90s, \"Thelma & Louise\" and \"A League of Their Own\"). Then there was that dreadful TV series last year.\nGeena Davis, Best Supporting Actress, 'The Accidental Tourist' (1988)\nIn truth, however, most of the women cited as victims of the Oscar Curse have continued working in show business and movies, albeit with lower-profile or less successful subsequent films:\n\u2014 Patty Duke, \"The Miracle Worker\" (1962)\n\u2014 Estelle Parsons, \"Bonnie and Clyde\" (1967)\n\u2014 Eileen Heckart, \"Butterflies are Free\" (1972)\n\u2014 Tatum O'Neal, \"Paper Moon\" (1973)\n\u2014 Olympia Dukakis, \"Moonstruck\" (1987)\n\u2014 Brenda Fricker, \"My Left Foot\" (1989)\n\u2014 Mercedes Ruehl, \"The Fisher King\" (1991)\n\u2014 Anna Paquin, \"The Piano\" (1993)\n\u2014 Mira Sorvino, \"Mighty Aphrodite\" (1995)\n\u2014 Kim Basinger, \"L.A. Confidential\" (1997)\nAnd last year, Marcia Gay Harden won for \"Pollock\" and promptly began co-starring with another Oscar-winner, Richard Dreyfuss, in the mediocre, low-rated TV series \"The Education of Max Bickford,\" along with the TV miniseries \"Guilty Hearts,\" which also did poorly in the ratings.\nA particularly strange urban legend attached itself to the Oscar Curse after Marisa Tomei's win as best supporting actress in 1991 for \"My Cousin Vinny.\" Supposedly, Tomei's name was not actually in the envelope opened by presenter Jack Palance that year, and because he was unable to read the correct name, he just blurted out the last name he had read as a nominee: Marisa Tomei.\nMarisa Tomei, Best Supporting Actress, 'My Cousin Vinny' (1992)\nDid that really happen? Of course not. (Although there's no denying that Tomei was a surprise winner that year, a twentysomething newcomer up against some powerhouse veterans \u2014 Judy Davis, Joan Plowright, Vanessa Redgrave and Miranda Richardson.)\nAnd it's also true that Tomei has made a string of forgettable movies since her win, and that even her better films (\"Only You,\" \"Chaplin,\" \"The Paper,\" etc.) weren't successful enough to boost her back onto moviegoers' radar.\nBut then she got a plum role in the Mel Gibson comedy \"What Women Want\" two years ago, followed now by \"In the Bedroom,\" which has given her a second supporting-actress Oscar nomination.\nIf Tomei wins Sunday night, perhaps it will burst the Oscar Curse bubble once and for all.",

        "raw_content": "Horseback riding in Ecuador\nEquestrian Home - South America - Ecuador Mini Guide\nEcuador Mini Guide\nThe Ecuadorian government has set itself the goal to turn Ecuador into one of the five best destinations of the American continent.\nThe country's varied and beautiful landscape should make this goal feasible. Straddling the equator in western South America, Ecuador has territories in both the Northern and the Southern hemispheres. The country is geographically divided into the Amazon, the Highlands, the Coast, and the Gal\u00e1pagos Islands.\nEcuador's coastal region (the western lowlands) is made up of fertile plains, rolling hills, and sedimentary basins traversed by a plethora of rivers that rush from the heights of the Andes to the Pacific Ocean. All five coastal provinces, encompassing 640km (398 miles) of coastline between them, have attractive beaches and plenty of hotels and resorts for tourists.\nThe Andes mountain range crosses the country from north to south. The Amazon Region can be geographically divided into two sub regions: the High Amazon and the Amazon Lowlands. The Highlands is comprised of the Andean foothills which slowly descend towards the Amazon River Basin. The Napo, Galeras, Cutuc\u00fa, and C\u00f3ndor ranges are located here. The most impressive elevated regions of this area are in the north and include Volcano Sumaco. The Lowlands, found further to east, are home to some of the nation's most beautiful and important rivers: the Putumayo, the Napo, and the Pastaza.\nThe Archipelago of Col\u00f3n (commonly known as the Gal\u00e1pagos Islands) is made up of 13 main islands, 17 islets, and dozens of ancient rock formation. Apart from its beautiful beaches and unique and varied ecosystems, the Gal\u00e1pagos Islands are home to towering active volcanoes.Straddling the Equator 1000km (622 miles) off the coast of Ecuador, the Galapagos Islands are famous for being the inspiration for Charles Darwin\u2019s theory of evolution. There are 13 large islands and six small, which were formed by oceanic volcanoes some three to five million years ago. Visitors come to the islands to see the unparalleled variety of wildlife that flourishes due to the remote location and temperate climate. The most famous residents are the giant tortoises after whom the islands are named, although other common species include iguana, dolphins, boobies and cormorants. The animals are so used to human company visitors can even swim with penguins and sea lions. Snorkelling and sailing are also popular.\nEcuador today remains a multi-ethnic and multicultural nation, where more than 14 indigenous groups maintain their own traditions and ways of life.\nNot required by all nationals referred to in the chart above for stays of up to 90 days in a 12-month period.\nUS Dollar (USD; symbol US$) = 100 cents. Notes are in denominations of US$100, 50, 20, 10, 5, 2 and 1. Coins are in denominations of US$1 and 50, 25, 10, 5 and 1 cents.\nForeign currencies can be exchanged at banks and at casas de cambio (exchange houses), the latter being generally the best option. It may be difficult to exchange money in the Oriente. The rate of commission varies between 1 to 4%, so it is worth shopping around.\nMajor credit/debit cards are accepted in most businesses. ATMs are available at most banks in urban areas. On the Gal\u00e1pagos Islands, currently only Mastercard is accepted. ATMs are available at most banks in urban areas. Note that dirty or torn notes will not be accepted. Try to keep cash in smaller denominations; shopkeepers tend to refuse $50 and $100 bills as forgeries of these notes are common.\nTraveller's cheques are generally accepted in the larger cities and can be exchanged into currency at most banks and casas de cambio.\nGenerally Mon-Fri 0830-1600/1700; Sat mornings.\nSometimes**\n* Malaria risk exists throughout the year below 1,500m (4,920ft), with moderate to high transmission risk in El Oro, Esmeraldas, Guayas, Los Rios, Manabi, Morona Santiago, Napo, Orellana, Pastaza, Pichincha and Sucumbios. There is no risk in Guayaquil or Quito.\n** A yellow fever vaccination certificate is required from travellers over one year of age coming from infected areas. Vaccination against yellow fever is recommended if travelling to the east of the Andes. There is no risk in Quito, Guayaquil or the Galapagos Islands.\nIt is advisable to drink only bottled or sterilised water in Ecuador. Avoid unpasteurised dairy products. Only eat well-cooked meat and fish. Vegetables should be cooked and fruit peeled.\nEcuador is considered to have a high risk of Zika (ZIKV) virus transmission. The mosquito-born illness can be spread from a pregnant woman to her unborn baby as well as through sexual contact. The World Health Organization recommends travelers to Ecuador protect themselves from mosquito bites and suggests wearing clothes (preferably light-coloured) that cover as much of the body as possible, sleeping under mosquito nets and using insect repellent. Women who are pregnant, at risk of getting pregnancy, or planning pregnancy should seek further advice form their doctor before traveling to Ecuador.\nVaccinations for tuberculosis and hepatitis B are sometimes recommended. Hepatitis B inoculation is recommended for those staying longer than 6 months and having intimate contact with local residents. Altitude sickness is a risk, particularly if flying directly into Quito (2,800m/9,186ft). Give yourself time to acclimate before setting off into the mountains. Walk slowly and drink plenty of water.\nThere are plenty of pharmacies in urban areas. Good medical care is available in Quito, Guayaquil, and most of the big cities. Medical facilities outside the major towns are limited. Acute surgical and cardiac services are not available on the Gal\u00e1pagos Islands; therefore, for more serious illnesses, patients may be evacuated to the USA. Health insurance (to include emergency repatriation) is strongly recommended.\nFlying to Ecuador\nEcuador has two main international airports: Quito International Airport and Aeropuerto Simon Bolivar in Guayaquil. International airlines with flights to Ecuador include American Airlines (www.aa.com), Iberia (www.iberia.com), KLM (www.klm.com), LAN Airlines (www.lan.com) and United (www.united.com). Baltra Airport serves the Galapagos islands.\nThe country\u2019s main airline, TAME (www.tame.com.ec), flies frequently between Guayaquil, Quito and other destinations throughout the country, as well as to a handful of international destinations. A number of small airlines serve the coast and eastern part of the country. Flying is the usual mode of transport for intercity travel.\nAir notes:\nInternational airfares vary according to season; high season is generally July to September and December.\nFrom London - 15 hours (including stopover); New York - 6 hours.\nAir passes:\nThe oneworld Visit South America Pass (www.oneworld.com) is valid within Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Chile (except Easter Island), Ecuador, Paraguay, Peru, Uruguay and Venezuela. Participating airlines are American Airlines (AA), British Airways (BA), LAN (LA), Qatar Airways (QR), TAM (KK) and their affiliates. The pass must be bought outside South America in the country of residence. It allows unlimited travel to over 60 destinations. You can take as many flights as you like, but a you must book a minimum of three flights.\nIncluded in the air fare.\nAirport Code: UIO.\nGuayaquil Jos\u00e9 Joaqu\u00edn de Olmedo Airport\nAirport Code: GYE.\nDriving to Ecuador\nThere are roads and international crossing points from neighboring Colombia and Peru. Border formalities are fairly straightforward as long as your documents are in order. There are no taxes on tourists when travelling this way.\nThe main crossing point to Colombia is Tulcan in the northern highlands. There is a second border point in the Oriente but the area is dangerous to travel in. The vast majority of traffic to Peru crosses the border at Machala. Less popular but interesting alternative crossing points are available at Macara and La Balsa.\nSome long-distance bus companies offer services from major cities such as Lima and Bogota all the way to Ecuador.\nBy road note:\nThere is no road access from North or central America; the Pan-American Highway stops in Panama and restarts in Colombia. In between lies 200km (124 miles) section of road-less jungle known as the Darien Gap. Lawless and wild, it is difficult to travel through and most people fly over it.\nGetting to Ecuador by boat\nGuayaquil is the main port in Ecuador for both passengers and freight. However, very few cruise ships use Guayaquil as a port of call when sailing down South America. Some cargo lines that stop in the city also carry passengers, but this can be prohibitively expensive. If you are on your own boat or crewing a sailing vessel, it's possible to arrive in Ecuador, with Salinas the most popular port for international yachts.\nManta is the second major port in Ecuador behind Guayaquil. A new cruise terminal at the port is currently under construction and is set to expand capacity on completion in the first half of 2018. The port typical sees just shy os 20 cruise calls in a calendar year.\nBy water note:\nSailings from Europe take approximately three weeks to arrive in Ecuador.\nEcuador has a highly changeable climate, which means that it can be variable at any time, Generally though, in the Sierra, there is little variation by day or by season, with changes occurring as you climb or descend instead. The coastal and Amazonian lowlands have a wet equatorial climate, but the higher you climb the colder it gets.\nRainfall is primarily affected by proximity to the eastern or western slopes of the Andes; in the west, June to September are drier with October to May typically wetter; in the east the opposite us true with October to February drier and March to September much wetter. There is also a variation in the amount of rainfall as you journey north to south, with the southern highlands much drier than the landscapes in the north. The coast can be enjoyed all year round, although it is cooler between June and November, when a sea must known as garua sets in. January to May are consistently the hottest and rainiest months here. The Galapagos are also affected by garua between May and December; January to April here are the hottest months, with heavy but brief rainfall also possible. In the Oriente you can be affected by rainfall at any time, but it is wettest from March to September. Most cities are located in a comfortable subtropical zone.\nTaking all of this into account, Ecuador's high season is June to early September. There is a shorter tourist season from December to January as well. However, the country is still not overly busy at any time and it's easy to engineer an escape from the crowds. The Galapagos however are often very busy and you must book well in advance to visit.\nLightweight natural fabrics; rainwear in subtropical areas. Warmer clothes are needed in upland areas.

        "title": "Inclusivity is key to Memphis' chapter as a literary city",
        "raw_content": "Shelby Black | Tuesday, February 14, 2017\nInclusivity is key to Memphis' chapter as a literary city\nAshley Roach, founder of poetry reading series Impossible Language.\nHeather Dobbins reads on Cooper Street during the street fair portion of the Mid-South Book Festival.Submitted\nMemphis' literati from publishing to poetry are working to connect the city's niches and foster a literary culture that is unique to Memphians.\nIt\u2019s easy to label Memphis as a music town. With a little bit of intentional development, the city\u2019s next chapter could lie in the literary scene.\nSmall literary communities can be found in the halls of Burke\u2019s Bookstore in Cooper-Young or the MFA program at the University of Memphis. To be seen as a city of letters, Memphis needs to bridge the divide between these small arts communities and the wider Memphis area, according to a few Memphis writers.\n\u201cSeeing the literary community as somehow separate from the wider community is problematic,\u201d says Ashley Roach, Memphis librarian and founder of arts and poetry series Impossible Language. \u201cThe product, whether it\u2019s a novel, a book of poetry, a screenplay, or a reading, is meant to be consumed and appreciated by a wider public.\u201d\nA recent issue of \"Fiyah\" magazine which holds origins in Memphis.Knox Shelton, executive director of Literacy Mid-South, whose Mid-South Book Festival has grown exponentially since its beginning, has also expressed his concerns over the scattered communities.\n\u201cI think there\u2019s a lot of people doing a lot of great things but everyone\u2019s off in their own little island,\u201d Shelton says. \u201cYou have all these great minds trying to do something and if we could just get everyone to the table and think how to practically approach cultivating a literary community here, I think it could really be done, but right now it\u2019s a little too isolated.\u201d\nLiteracy Mid-South\u2019s Mid-South Book Festival has grown exponentially since it launched in 2015. Once a year, regional authors take over the Overton Square area. Year-long support for Memphis\u2019 literary culture could be found in at Story Booth, a sliver-sized studio in Crosstown that brings Shelby County School students together with local authors.\n\u201cIt\u2019s a magical space full of creative energy and coziness,\u201d Roach says. \u201cIf anything is at the center of of the community\u2019s growth, it\u2019s Story Booth.\u201d\nThe emergence of such businesses is certainly a step in the right direction for Memphis\u2019 literary scene. Unfortunately, Memphians remain unaware of these budding communities and events occurring all around the city.\n\u201cI go to poetry readings where there\u2019s five people in the audience and it breaks my heart,\u201d Shelton said.\nIn addition, literary journals fostered by city natives give writers a more public voice. Among these publications include poetry anthology Nightjar Review, University of Memphis\u2019 Pinch Journal and online black speculative fiction magazine Fiyah.\nTroy Wiggins, executive editor of \"Fiyah\" literary magazineTroy Wiggins, executive editor of Fiyah, believes inclusivity is the key in order for these niche literary circles to grow.\n\u201cWe don't have \u2018a\u2019 or \u2018the\u2019 literary community, we have several literary communities,\u201d Wiggins said. \u201cMemphians, literati and otherwise, have to be honest about whether they actually want to create an inclusive and diverse collective literary community.\u201d\nWhen independently-owned Booksellers at Laurelwood announced in January that it was closing due to dwindling sales, it shed an ominous light into the future of Memphis\u2019 literary community. The bookstore partnered with organizations such as Literacy Mid-South and served as a community space for open readings.\nDespite this loss, it\u2019s clear that Memphis holds all the cards to be a bustling literary community. However, the future still remains unclear into how soon and able these communities will be able come together and whether Memphians will take notice.\n\u201cA few tentative steps have already been taken, but there is still so much work to be done,\u201d Wiggins says. \u201cI can\u2019t say I\u2019m optimistic, but I can say that I\u2019m working. Here in Memphis, we tend to prefer writers of a certain type: white, southern, comfortable. It's beyond time for us to rid ourselves of that paradigm, as it erases so many writers who could contribute to a stable collective literary scene.\u201d\nOnce inclusivity, awareness, and cohesion is reached, then there\u2019s nothing stopping Memphis from turning the next page into what could be the next great literary hub.\n\u201cI regularly travel to Oxford, Nashville, and Knoxville for literary events,\u201d Roach says. \u201cI want Memphis to be a stop on the map in the same way.\u201d",

        "title": "Bactrian Camel | Highland Wildlife Park",
        "raw_content": "In summer 2009 our three camels arrived from Edinburgh Zoo. We have two females, Caramel and Khara, and one younger male, Karnali born in 2007 at Blackpool Zoo.\nThey can be seen in our entrance reserve and from the walkway across it.\nWild Bactrian camels have been heavily hunted for meat and skin and as well as competing with domestic animals for water and food; they are at risk of extinction due to hybridising with domestic camels. As a result of this, only a few fragmented, pure-bred populations remain.\nSome areas of the Gobi and Gashun Gobi desert (Lop Nur), where the Bactrian camel remain, are protected by the Great Gobi Reserve in Mongolia which was established in 1982, and the new national reserve \u2018Lop Nur Wild Camel Reserve\u2019 in China. A captive breeding programme based in Mongolia and run by the Wild Camel Protection Foundation began in 2003.\nCamels can drink about 55 litres of water at once in order to replenish reserves they have lost. It is a common misconception that they store this in their humps, whereas in reality their humps are used to store fat.\nTheir feet are large & splayed to cope with walking on sand & loose surfaces.\nBactrian camels have 2 humps while Dromedary camels have 1 hump. An easy way to remember this is to mentally turn a camel on end, then you'll notice that Bactrian humps look like a \"B\" (for Bactrian) and Dromedary humps look like a \"D\" (for Dromedary)!\nAs with almost all Bactrian camels, the animals in our collection are the domestic variety. The true, wild Bactrian camel, (Camelus ferus), is a Critically Endangered species.\nWild Bactrian camels (Camelus ferus) are found in the Gobi desert of Northwest China and Mongolia.\nThe Bactrian camel is extremely well adapted to the harsh desert climate. They have dense eyelashes which help reduce the amount of sandstorm damage as well as narrow nostrils that can be closed tightly to protect against the storms. They have two toes that are connected with an unbroken sole, which allows them to spread their weight, giving the camel greater ability to walk on sandy ground.\nBactrian camels have the characteristic camel body shape, with a long curved neck, long legs, two humps and a split upper lip. These humps contain fat, not water which is a common misconception. They are used for nourishment when food and water are scarce and they can sustain the camel for up to four days. The coat of the wild Bactrian camel is normally lighter than its domestic relative and is a grey-brown colour. The coat allows them to withstanding great extremes of temperature, from -30 degrees Celsius in winter to +50 degrees Celsius in summer. In winter they grow long, shaggy hair, which is then shed in the summer in big sections as temperatures increase. Camels can also run very fast and reach speeds of up to 40 miles per hour.\nCamels forage for food during the day and eat grass, leaves, grains and shrubs. They have very tough mouths, which lets them eat thorny desert plants.\nBactrian camels can drink as much as 57 litres at one time in order to replenish reserves they have lost. However when water is available they drink only to replace the water they have lost. To conserve water, camels produce dry faeces and little urine and allow their body temperature to fluctuate, therefore reducing the need to sweat. In addition to the water that is normally stored in the body, the Bactrian camel stores about 1.5 gallons in special sacks around its stomach.\nBactrian camels live in herds called \"caravans\" which will travel great distances in search of food and water sources. Each herd consists of between six to twenty animals and are led by an adult male. The group consists of adult females, their infants and juveniles. Females give birth to a single calf approximately thirteen months after mating. After only a few hours the infant camel can walk and will remain with its mother until it is around five years old. When they are approaching sexual maturity, males are driven out of the group to form bachelor herds while females remain in the group.",

Bush Inaugurated as President\nGeorge W. Bush taking the oath of office. [Source: White House/ Wally McNamara]George W. Bush is inaugurated as president, replacing President Bill Clinton. Bush is sworn in after a tumultuous, sharply disputed election that ended with a US Supreme Court decision in his favor (see 9:54 p.m. December 12, 2000). He takes the oath of office on the same Bible his father, George H.W. Bush, used in his own 1989 inauguration; the oath is administered by Chief Justice William Rehnquist. In his brief inaugural address, delivered outside the US Capitol, Bush asks Americans to \u201ca commitment to principle with a concern for civility.\u2026 Civility is not a tactic or a sentiment. It is the determined choice of trust over cynicism, of community over chaos.\u201d In words apparently chosen to reflect on the criticisms surrounding former President Clinton and his notorious affair with White House intern Monica Lewinsky, Bush says, \u201cI will live and lead by these principles\u2014to advance my convictions with civility, to pursue the public interest with courage, to speak for greater justice and compassion, to call for responsibility, and try to live it as well.\u201d He continues addressing the American people, saying: \u201cI ask you to be citizens. Citizens, not spectators. Citizens, not subjects. Responsible citizens, building communities of service and a nation of character.\u201d At a post-ceremonial luncheon, Bush issues a series of executive orders, some designed to block or roll back several Clinton-era regulations. He also acknowledges that because of the election turmoil, many Americans believe \u201cwe can\u2019t get anything done\u2026 nothing will happen, except for finger-pointing and name-calling and bitterness.\u201d He then says: \u201cI\u2019m here to tell the country that things will get done. Republicans and Democrats will come together to do what\u2019s right for America.\u201d [New York Times, 1/21/2001]\nThousands of Protesters - Thousands of protesters line the streets during Bush\u2019s ceremonial drive to the Capitol, a fact not heavily reported by many press outlets. Salon reports, \u201cNot since Richard Nixon paraded down Pennsylvania Avenue in 1973 has a presidential inauguration drawn so many protesters\u2014and last time, people were out to protest the Vietnam War.\u201d Though Capitol Police refuse to estimate the size of the crowd lining the street, Salon reports that \u201cmany thousands of protesters were in evidence.\u201d Liz Butler of the Justice Action Movement, the umbrella organization that helped coordinate the protests, says: \u201cThe level of people on the streets shows that people are really upset about lack of democratic process. They took it to the streets. We saw tens of thousands. We saw far more protesting Bush than supporting him.\u201d Some of the people on the streets are Bush supporters, but many more are not, and carry signs such as \u201cBush Cheated,\u201d \u201cHail to the Thief,\u201d \u201cBush\u2014Racism,\u201d \u201cBushwhacked by the Supremes,\u201d and others. The crowd, though outspoken in its protests and unrestrained in its heckling of Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney, is generally peaceful, and no serious violence is reported, though a few minor altercations do take place, and large contingents of police in riot gear\u2014including personnel from every police department in the District of Columbia as well as the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms and from departments in Maryland and Virginia\u2014are on hand. At least one protester throws an egg at the limousine transporting Bush, Cheney, and their families to the inaugural ceremonies; perhaps in response to the protests, Bush breaks with tradition laid down by earlier presidents and does not walk any large portion of the parade route. Nine people are arrested for disorderly conduct, most for allegedly throwing bottles and other debris. Bulter says: \u201cOf course, we\u2019re ashamed that Bush has decided to be a \u2018uniter\u2019 by uniting people against him.

        "raw_content": "Superintendent E.A. Strong, in his June of 1863 Annual Report elaborated some of the problems with conditions at the east side Union School. In September of that year, 1863, at a meeting of the voters it was decided:\n1. They needed to build a new Union Schoolhouse.\n2. Messrs. Thomas D. Gilbert, William H. Withey, and P.R.L. Pierce were to be a committee to confer with the Trustees, and in conjunction with them to procure a plan and superintend the construction of such a school house.\nThe rise in the price of labor and building materials due to the Civil War, and the \u201cextraordinary issues of paper money, rendered it impossible for the Board to erect such a building with the sum ($25,000) to which they were limited by vote of the district.\u201d[1] This seems an appropriate place to redirect our attention from a surplus of students and a scarcity of space to the architect and architecture of the new District No.1 Union School, commonly referred to as Central School. It is the first local school building with some semblance of identifiable architectural style, in this case, a mid-western version of Italianate.\nThough the use of the Italianate architectural style is a distinct departure from earlier, sometimes vaguely neo-classical designs, it became common in school construction in the northern United States in the years after the close of the Civil War. Less grand in appearance than its classical predecessors, the Italianate form seemed ideally suited for school purposes, its boxy, asymmetrical profile allowing buildings of varying sizes to be accommodated within the style. Italianate buildings could also be built to three or more stories in height without compromise of overall appearance.\nThe style called for the use of large symmetrically balanced windows (generally topped by a decorative cornice), permitting lighter, more airy school rooms, and as was the case with the new Union Schoolhouse, welcomed the placement, usually off-center, of a commanding tower housing stairs, additional rooms, or perhaps a belfry.\nThe relative simplicity of the overall form, generally free of elaborate ornament, such as columns and pediment, brought down the cost of original construction (as well as subsequent additions), and placed the actual construction of the building well within the capabilities of local contractors.\nIt is unknown if the plans for the building were contracted for and secured in 1863 when the committee was instructed to obtain them, or if that duty was postponed as well as the construction itself, by prevailing financial conditions. Regardless, Thomas Pratt of Northampton, Massachusetts, produced the elevations for the proposed school\u2014the first in the city to be designed by an \u2018outside\u2019 architect.\nThe choice of Thomas Pratt was interesting, but a little puzzling. We are all familiar with the notion that an expert is someone who lives fifty miles from home. Perhaps thinking the school would be of more consequence if designed by an expert led to the choice of Pratt. But why so far from home?\nThe most practical answer may be that someone connected to the project here came from the Connecticut River Valley of Massachusetts, and knew of Pratt\u2019s work. If we assume that the plans were sought in 1863, Pratt would have been eighty years old and well past the days of his major work, which consisted almost exclusively of Greek Revival styled domestic architecture. We have to ask, is it possible he was assisted in completing the elevations by his son, William Fenno Pratt, also an architect? His portfolio included designs in the Italianate vernacular; one of his most well-known being Evergreens, designed for William Austin Dickinson (known as Austin), brother of the poet, now part of the Emily Dickinson Museum in Amherst.\nTwo names come forward as potential contacts to Thomas Pratt. David Burnett, builder of the earlier East Side Stone School, was from South Hadley, Massachusetts, just across the Connecticut River from Northampton. Thomas D. Gilbert, of the 1863 building committee, left that area of Massachusetts shortly before 1835, the time of Pratt\u2019s heyday, and so may have known of his work. We discover that, \u201cPratt was the architect of the building, although the incipient scheme and many special suggestions and adaptations are due to Thomas D. Gilbert.\u201d[2]\nJulie Stivers, Grand Rapids author, has provided the answer to the selection of the architect for the school. Thomas D. Gilbert would indeed have been the connection. Austin Dickinson, brother of poet Emily, was married to Thomas Gilbert's sister, Susan. Austin and Susan Gilbert Dickinson had thought about moving to Grand Rapids soon after they married, to take advantage of the success of her brothers, Thomas and Francis Gilbert. However, Mr. Dickinson, Austin's father, offered to build them a house if they would stay in Amherst. As mentioned, Thomas Pratt's son, William Fenno Pratt, designed that house, Evergreens. Considering the age Thomas Pratt, the architectural style of the school, and the Dickinson connection it's most likely that it was Pratt's son William who was the actual architect.\nPopularity of the Italianate style increased after the Civil War, particularly in school buildings, offering local communities a style newer and more up-to-date than the Classical or Greek Revival buildings of the past. A few identifying Italianate features of the Central School include the square tower topped by a square cupola; tall, narrow windows arched above with crowns in an inverted \u2018U\u2019 shape that vary in design from floor to floor; and a low-pitched roof with overhanging eaves supported by decorative brackets.\nThere are deviations from true Italianate architecture in the school that a trained eye would have spotted immediately, i.e. the pitch of the roof of the tower and the lack of ornamentation, especially on the windows, normally identified with this style. Thomas Gilbert\u2019s hand as well as financial restraints of the war may explain the less than accurate rendering of Pratt\u2019s original design.\nSome critics were not forthcoming with praise for the Pratt/Gilbert building. \u201cThough somewhat faulty in its architectural style, [it] is a most substantial, thoroughly finished structure . . . a pity that there was not more cheerfulness built into its form, and [was] not made to express more sympathy with the progressive spirit of the age. It looks a little pinched in some portions as though something hurt it, but with all its architectural faults, it is a noble building.\u201d[3]\nThe new Central School occupied the same site as the Stone School, but its footprint was two and one-half times the square footage of the earlier building. Constructed of brick, as almost all future schools would be, it could house 600 pupils, 700 if really necessary. The tower, located on the southeast corner, furnished an office for the Superintendent on the first floor, a room for the Kent Scientific Institute collection on the second, and a recitation room for modern languages on the third.\nAfter the new high school was finished, the old school was demolished. The stones and building materials were sold to various citizens, and the front door of the school was added to the residence of Arthur S. White, editor and journalist.[4]\nWho Did the Work on the New Central School?\n\"In 1867/68 when the Central School was built it was not the custom, as it is today, for a general contractor to oversee contracting craftsmen to complete a building. The school board, or more specifically the building committee, would have had the responsibility of hiring men from each of these trades.\nSuperintendent E.A. Strong in his 1868 report gave credit to the \u2018mechanics\u2019 who had \u201cDone the Work\u201d on the Central School.\n\u201cThe contractors have given to the work, throughout, their personal attention, and so well has the mason work been attended to by Mr. L.C. Davidson, that not a crack in the walls is visible, from foundation to turret. Mr. A.W. Pelton had the charge of the carpenter work, including the large self-supporting roof, and has fully maintained his reputation as a skillful mechanic. The joiner work has been under the personal supervision of Mr. L.N. Howard, assisted much of the time by Mr. Chas. N. Rice, Gilbert Grootvelde, Gerritt DeGraaf, M.H. Wileman, J. Miller and the Messrs. Colby, and needs no commendation.\nThe plastering was done by Dennis Heenan, Patrick O\u2019Neill, Lewis Colwell, Augustus David, Nicholas Alt, and James L. Davidson, and we think will prove durable work. The graining was done by Mr. Wm. Hodgson, in his usual thorough manner, and the rest of the painting, oiling and varnishing, by Cornelius Borendamme.\nThe tin work, heating apparatus, etc. has been under the supervision of Capt. Fred. Shriver, a sufficient guarantee that the work is of the best kind. Mr. Thomas Pratt, of Northampton, Mass., was the architect, and designed the elevations after having been furnished the ground plans by the Board. The severe simplicity and massive character of the style have been criticized by some, but the Board are of opinion that it is in keeping with the purpose of the building.\nMr. Reuben Wheeler, of this city, has been consulting architect during the progress of the work, and aided materially in its development.\u201d\nReuben Wheeler was not a trained architect, but a builder/mechanic. Wheeler worked his way west as a skilled carpenter and builder after studying design in Buffalo. He practiced in Detroit, Chicago, and St. Louis before coming to Grand Rapids in 1855 to join his brother, who worked as a mason and plasterer. Wheeler is listed as a carpenter in the 1859 City Directory. Entries in his personal account book show his work to be largely residential from this period. In 1866, he established Reuben Wheeler & Company to manufacture doors, sash, blinds and other building fixtures. By 1870, the company employed over sixty-five people and was the largest manufacturer of its kind in the city. He designed and built a number of brick commercial Italianate style blocks in downtown Grand Rapids during the 1870s. The Italianate buildings fronting on Monroe Center (part of the Ledyard Block Historic District) and the Peck Block at Monroe Center and Division are the only known commercial examples of Wheeler\u2019s work that survive today.[5]\nWilliam G. Robinson, who would design many Grand Rapids buildings, especially its early schools, worked for Reuben Wheeler as a draughtsman when he first arrived in the city.[6]\nCosts of the 1867-68 Central School\nNormally, the itemized charges for a schoolhouse would not be included, but a glimpse into building costs of the 1860s as well the types of items required proves interesting.\nMoving wood-shed and privy\nExcavating for basement\nBill of lumber for various uses\nGrading lot\nCut stone water table\nPainting and sanding window caps\nInterest on temporary loan\nExtra allowance on brick\nPaid for house and lot adjoining school lot\nStamps on school bonds\nStoves, furniture, seats, desks, fitting up library and apparatus room\nLabor outside, stone walls, stairs, walks, cellar under janitor\u2019s house, moving house paving, etc.\nWe estimate the cost of heating apparatus.\n(not listed)\nWe estimate due contractors for extra work\nAmount of outstanding bills\nFor out-houses, grading and fencing lot, planting trees and laying permanent walks\n[2] GR Eagle, 4/25/67 (emphasis by current author)\n[3] GR Eagle 4/11/1868 (Possibly a comment by Albert Baxter, editor of the Eagle?)\n[4] Baxter, Albert.

        "raw_content": "HMB was selected by the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet to prepare a full environmental assessment and preliminary and final roadway design and structure design for the replacement of the KY 22 bridge over the Licking River in Falmouth, Kentucky. The project area encompasses the confluence of the Licking River and the South Fork of the Licking River, as well as most of the historic area of downtown Falmouth. The existing bridge was a narrow, two-lane truss structure in an advanced state of corrosion and in need of replacement. Serpentine approaches to the bridge complicated traffic patterns and caused some vehicles, particularly trucks and buses, to hit the adjacent brush walls as they approached the bridge.\nIn Phase I of the project, HMB studied three alternative locations:\n1.) Just downstream of the existing;\n2.) Just upstream of the existing; and\n3.) An alignment further upstream that would tie into existing KY 22 near Monroe Street and extend east along the southern limits of Falmouth to re-tie into KY 22 at the KY 519 intersection.\nAn Environmental Assessment was approved by the Federal Highway Administration and issued a Finding of No Significant Effect (FONSI). Field studies required for the Environmental Assessment included a mussel survey of the Licking River covering all three potential alternatives. The survey was performed by HMB biology staff with assistance from ESI. No federally listed mussels were found during the survey. The downstream alternative was preferred.\nIn Phase II, HMB prepared construction plans for both the roadway and bridge. The structure spanning the Licking River is a curved, welded steel plate girder bridge that is 733 feet long. Decorative parapets and aesthetic lighting were incorporated into the bridge design due to the proximity of the Falmouth historic district. HMB submitted the final construction plans for a Fall 2011 letting and construction was recently completed.",

        "title": "\ufeffThe Family Brichta Part One -- Survivors Stories www.HolocaustResearchProject.org",
        "raw_content": "Part One \u2013 Backgrounds and Life in Berlin\nThis is the story of the Family Brichta, as recalled by Frank Bright, in his unpublished memoirs, which due to its length will be completed in several chapters.\nWe are exceedingly grateful to Frank for allowing HEART to share both his family\u2019s and his unique experiences during the Nazis years, before the Second World War and through the Holocaust, which claimed so many of his family and friends.\nHermann Brichta\nHermann Brichta holding Frank, 1929 Berlin\nMy father, early days\nMy Father was very similar in upbringing and outlook to that of my mother. Born on a farm in 1897 among and surrounded by Czechs that is not all that surprising. There were other Jewish farmers in Moravia and Slovakia, ownership of land and equal, or more equal, opportunities, even in the army, were much more and more widely available within the Habsburg empire than in Russian Poland, the latter did not become an independent state until 1919. He was fully aware of his Jewish origins but as a nationality, not as a religion.\nInstead the boys were called up, Ernst was killed and by 1915 Oswald and Hermann were Prisoners of War thousands of miles away. It is reasonable to assume that farm labourers too had been called up. With farming then being very labour intensive, horses having been requisitioned and shortage, or absence ,of fertiliser and lack of manure made it impossible to carry on. It seems that grandmother just left the farm unable to cope and moved to Vienna in 1915.\nThat also meant that when her two sons finally returned from Vladivostok on Russia's Pacific coast and at the terminal of the Trans-Siberian railway, in 1920 and 1921 respectively, they did not return to Vlko\u0161 in Moravia, their birth place, but to Vienna and to their mother. Therese Brichta survived her husband by 18 years. She died of the same sickness, cancer of the stomach.\nAs I shall explain later, on the two forms he completed in 1919 in Vladivostok, one an application to become a Czechoslovak citizen and the other to join the Czechoslovak army in Russia he, and his brother Oswald in Irkutsk thousand miles and many time-zones away, both put \"Jewish\" after \"nationality\" when they could just as easily have put \"Czech\".\nIn Germany my father had both German and Jewish friends, boxed at the Maccabi, worked for a Jewish private bank, yet never set foot in a synagogue. He married an equally Jewish woman but at a registry office.\nToni Brichta\nMy mother Toni and her twin brother Fritz\nMy mother Toni and her brother Fritz Wasservogel were born on 22.06.1892 in the Kreutzberg district of Berlin. Possibly because they were twins both were very small. They were about ten years old when their father died in 1902 at the age of 52.\nBecause he had had no life insurance and probably very few savings the children were sent to orphanages although they kept in very close contact with their mother to whom they were devoted. They were also very close to one another.\nFritz went to a Jewish orphanage; I believe it was called the Auerbach, where he received a classical education and where he became fluent in Latin and Greek. I was told that he could translate fluently from one into the other. He was also very good at sports and chess.\nToni, my mother, was sent to a Protestant orphanage where she received a liberal education, became fluent in English and French to interpreter standard and also learned shorthand and typing at a time when girls only gradually entered office work.\nThis entry into commerce was helped by WW1 when men, who as clerks had carried out such work, had been called up. I have a photo of her with her female colleagues but cannot tell whether that was taken at the offices of the Berlin branch of the Allianz or at the Victoria of Berlin Life offices, she worked for both. I would just like to add that at her Protestant orphanage she was indoctrinated with anti-Catholicism which made a change from anti-Semitism.\nIt is likely that both of her parents were fully assimilated, thought of themselves as Germans of the Jewish persuasion, were fully aware of their Jewish descent but were not religious. It is also possible that if there was a Jewish orphanage for girls it was an orthodox one and she would not have fitted into it and that a Protestant one was considered a more suitable alternative.\nFritz Wasservogel\nMy uncle Fritz\nI assume that her twin brother, my uncle Fritz, joined the Dresdner Bank straight from orphanage. He too moved in with his mother. The bank had been founded by a Jewish banker but that may not have had any bearing on it.\nBoys perform a service at the synagogue of the Auerbach Jewish orphanage in Berlin\nThe First World War interrupted his career there. He joined the German Navy or Kriegsmarine and became a \"Vorturner\", a physical education instructor, quite something for a small and rather Jewish looking 22-year old.\nHe had, as already mentioned, been very good at sports and had jumped across roofs at the orphanage, much to the consternation of the staff who called his mother to talk him out of such dangerous pastimes. He was awarded the Iron Cross.\nI believe that he was also on a crew operating the \"Dicke Bertha\", a massive 420mm mortar built by Krupps of which Bertha Krupp was the owner and manager. Probably similar to the way the British Navy was organised where heavy guns were operated by the Marines. That war service and the decoration did not prevent his fellow Germans 28 years later from murdering him in March 1943, having reduced him and his wife to the status of a forced labourer.\nHermann Brichta \u2013 From Vienna to Berlin\nMy father was demobilised in Vienna in 1921 and I have the photo which had been attached to his tramcar pass. His connections with Vlko\u0161 near Kyjov in Moravia where he was born had been severed. As a result of his father's death and certainly as a result of the war the farm had been lost.\nRelatives from his mother's as well as from his father's side lived in Vienna. However Vienna in 1921 was a pale image of its pre-war days when it was the hub of a European empire which had vanished.\nThough I don't know the exact details and nobody who could recollect them is alive to-day, some of these relatives were in the banking profession and they employed him and sent him as their agent to the private Jewish bank of Siegmund Pincus of Berlin W8, Unter den Linden 49.\nFranz Brichta \u2013 Birth\nI was born on 30 January 1933. This is what I remember of Berlin\nI was just over four years old when Hitler was made Chancellor by von Papen on 31.01.1933 and he and his supporters seized absolute power shortly afterwards. That was after years of street brawls between the Communists and the brown shirted SA Nazis.\nAt the crucial moment the Communists disappeared from the scene and the ballot box. Though I can't remember it myself my mother used to relate on many occasions a graffiti inscription on a brick wall near our villa which asked the pertinent question: \"Wo sind die Kommunisten?\" (Where are the Communists?). Next day a wit provided the answer: \"In der SA\" (in the SA).\nFrank Brichta {Bright} 4 years old, Berlin 1932\nThe street-fighters of the far left, who were not necessarily, committed ideologues and in practical terms there was indeed very little to chose between the two factions, had gone over to the far Right to be on the winning side, they knew the prevailing mood, which was pro-Nazi, and they wanted to be part of it. 12 years later the Nazis of East Germany reverted to being good Communists with equal ease and alacrity.\nAll I remember of the villa is the garden, the sandpit, the balcony, visiting the caretaker\u2019s wife with my mother after we had left and admiring the polished cuirass cavalry breastplate which the new owners proudly displayed to prove their military family connections when militarism was once again the \u201cin\u201d thing, as if it had ever been anything else in Prussian Berlin.\nIn this connection I also remember the vast number of people in uniform, another Prussian habit which resurfaced. It wasn't just the brownshirts, the black shirts, the Organisation Todt, a labour battalion, the Hitlerjugend, the B.d.M. (Bund deutscher M\u00e4dchen, the female equivalent of the Hitlerjugend), the NSDAP (the National-Socialist German Workers Party) but also the many soldiers, sergeant majors, in field grey.\nEverybody seemed to go to bed in their uniforms - it was their everyday casual wear. This was in direct contrast to what my father had told me about the British whom he had encountered in the Far East on his way to Vienna from Vladivostok opposite Japan. He too had been used to the constant wearing of uniforms and riding boots, apparently day and night and on and off horses, in Austria.\nThe British, he had observed, got into mufti as soon and as quickly as possible. It turned out that the Austrians made poor soldiers in spite of their love of uniforms and the book \"The good Soldier Schwejk\" a caricature, had much truth in it.\nAfter we had moved into an apartment there were several things I remember. The anti-Semitic cartoons in display cabinets at street corners, the wide pavements, air raid exercises, the cardboard pig in the kitchen, horses and tractors pulling vans and removal vans, the single bench in parks reserved for Jews, the many notices \"Juden unerw\u00fcnscht\" (Jews not welcome), the stories of razzias (raids by the Gestapo on establishments to terrorise) and of cardboard boxes containing the ashes of victims murdered in the first batch of concentration camps (KZ) for which the unfortunate recipient had to pay postage.\nAlso visiting old friends of my mother's who were the beneficiaries of the \"WHW\" (Winterhilfswerk-help with winter fuel), visiting Aryan acquaintances from my keep-fit class, visiting the KadeWe (Kaufhaus des Westens), a large department store with escalators, my school, selling up, my militaristic toys, from wind-up bomber which could drop bombs fitted with percussion caps to a wind-up submarine which could dive and resurface, that\u2019s what German children played with in the bath rather than with rubber ducks, the favourite of children in less blood-thirsty societies.\n\"Jews not welcome\" Anti-Semitic poster in Vienna\nI also remember searchlights all along the way from Berlin to the border with Czechoslovakia, my encounter with the Wehrmacht (army) on their manoeuvres, the Saturday morning visit to the newsreel cinema, the Sunday walks, wearing a small Czechoslovak flag on the lapel like a talisman to ward off evil Nazis, which it potentially did.\nI also remember the German tenant on the same floor as our apartment who told my mother how glad she was that Germany had left the League of Nations, \u201cAffentheater\u201d (pretentious assembly is my nearest translation, performance by monkeys is another) she called it.\nMy earliest personal encounter with anti-Semitism were the horrible cartoons of Jews in the official Nazi propaganda papers, \u201cDas Schwarze Korps\u201d, an SS paper, and \u201cDer V\u0151lkische Beobachter\u201d, displayed behind glass in showcases fixed at eye level to walls at street corners.\nThey showed the most ugly Jews with the most enormous noses clad in either Russian-Bolshevik uniforms or with an \u201cUncle Sam\u201d Stars and Stripes top hat and called Plutocrats, both apparently dominating the world, or trying to, profiting from exploiting good-looking innocent Germans. How unlike the truth!\nThese cartoons were obviously designed to foster hate but even then I couldn\u2019t work out how one could be both capitalist and communist at the same time. Presumably such double-think was no obstacle to the receptive and empty German mind.\nBerlin Pavements\nI also remember the wide pavements, necessary because of the population density, laid by hand on a layer of sand to a pattern with small granite cubes, I watched with fascination these cubes being laid to effect repairs.\nThe Air Raid Exercise\nThe population density, i.e. the number of people per acre or per hectare, there was little of the detached or semi-detached sprawl with gardens front and rear as is the case in England. Most people lived in apartments and those were large. Apartment blocks had a front building, a rear building and buildings right and left in between with a Hof (courtyard) in the middle.\nThose in the front were best off for light because they had the light from the side facing the road and from the back facing the courtyard although there the light can only be described as murky. It could also be noisy. In summer tenants had their windows open.\nOne of the tenants in our block was a singer and he practiced scales all day. These were old buildings with huge rooms, corridors, bathrooms the size of a small dance floor and huge front gates to the buildings from the road to permit the loading and unloading of the huge German furniture then customary.\nThus my father gave me, though he had a leading share in it, an 0-0 gauge electric train set which was easily accommodated on his large writing desk, including circular and straight rails and a triple shunting section with signals, remote control junctions and transformer.\nThe room was so large that one didn\u2019t even notice this desk among enormous leather armchairs and equally large sideboards. He also gave me, though it was mostly he who played with it, a Diana air gun and the corridor was long and wide enough to use it there.\nAn Air Raid Shelter (school outside of Berlin)\nOne of the uses to which our courtyard was put was a demonstration, around 1935/36, of how to extinguish an incendiary bomb. When the rest of Europe, certainly the former big players France and Great Britain, wanted to disarm or at least have a controlled disarmament. Unfortunately, because they had no stomach for a fight they had allowed Germany to re-occupy the Rhineland in 1936 sending Germany the wrong signal, that of weakness when faced with aggressive bluster such as showing their population how to deal with a phosphor incendiary bomb.\nA small phosphor bomb was duly produced, ignited on the ground and extinguished with sand from a ready-to-hand bucket. Appeasement and the British Peace Pledge Union had only whetted the German appetite for more concessions and foreign correspondents duly reported such exercises, as was intended.\nA goal for Germany in the propaganda war. Anyway, it was most exciting for an 8-year old boy like me.\nThe Cardboard Pig\nThere were other manifestations of preparations for war. We were given, and had to display it on the kitchen wall, a cardboard pig which had written on it \u201cIch esse\u201d (I eat), a list of waste which had to be separated from other collectible waste to be rendered down for pigswill.\nThis was done to save foreign currency of which Germany was short because it spent so much, for instance, on the development, construction and production of synthetic fuel plants (BRABAG-fuel from brown coal, the only deposits Germany had) to make it independent of imports in any coming war.\nAn immense energy also went into the design, development and production of petrol aero engines for fighter planes and bombers and into diesel engines for torpedo boats and into the frames of dive bombers (Stukas, JU 87s), of fighter planes (Me Bf 109 & 110) and of bombers (Heinkels, Dorniers and Junkers).\nThe Nazis forged ahead with the construction of a new generation of U-boats and torpedoes, massive \u201cpocket\u201d battleships, tanks, the versatile and unsurpassed 88mm anti-tank and anti-aircraft gun, coded radio communication, the \u201cUltra\u201d, the development of long-distance rockets the sole purpose of which was to kill civilians, they had no military purpose, and the construction of an east-bound autobahn.\nThe hundreds of thousands of concrete perimeter posts for thousands of large and small prisoner-of-war, slave labour and concentration camps, together of miles of barbed electrified barbed wire and high tension insulators, should not be forgotten.\nEven the Volkswagen was a military vehicle, with its air-cooled rear-engine the cold Polish and Russian winter didn\u2019t congeal any oil in an absent sump.\nAll this feverish but unproductive, in the civilian sense, activity mopped up unemployed labour and was welcome even if the only use to which the output could be used for was war.\nThe cardboard pig and its swill were the practical outcome of the slogan \u201cGuns before butter\u201d or of the full version \u201cGuns will make us powerful, butter will only make us fat\u201d, coined by Hermann Goering during a radio broadcast in the summer of 1936, himself a fatty.\nJewish people were forced to sit on special benches away from non-Jews\nNot far from us lived Ida Herlinger who was. related to my father through a common grandfather. My mother and I used to meet old Mrs.Ida Herlinger in the park about halfway between our apartments. Walking on the grass was prohibited anyway but the park had wide paths with benches. Although at that time not entirely excluded from such public amenity altogether, Jews could only sit on one bench, reserved for Jews, somewhere in the middle.\nWe did sit on it but it was risky, one felt conspicuous, uncomfortable and vulnerable, the object of the exercise. Similarly, when we went to visit her or her daughter\u2019s family who lived close by, and we saw SA men in the distance on our side of the road we would cross over to the other side of the road to avoid a confrontation.\nAs mentioned, we wore miniature Czechoslovak flags in our lapels to identify us as foreigners to whom the anti-semitic laws did not apply but the protection they offered us was not available to German Jews.\n\u201cJuden unerw\u0171nscht\u201d\nThis sign, that Jews were not welcome, was in the entrance door of all German, as distinct from a few Jewish, restaurants and bars. Not only could that be inconvenient but it signified the exclusion of Jews from the social life and intercourse of their German neighbours and one felt, and was, a second-class citizen.\nThere were Jewish restaurants, I am not sure of their name, Kempinski was one of them. To ruin that business and stop Jews meeting there the Gestapo made razzias or raids, swooping on the premises and taking everybody away for interrogation and worse.\nAlthough I was only 8 or 9 years old my mind and feelings for the tensions in the atmosphere were well developed without realising it, our childhood differed from an ordinary, non-Jewish childhood.\nI had friends, mainly from school and thus they were Jewish too and whether I visited them or they visited me most of the time the mothers would be present too. We were, after all, quite small and Berlin was a big and dangerous place. Thus one either couldn\u2019t help overhearing their conversation or did so deliberately, children are nosey.\nThus I overheard something that has stayed with me even if I didn't may be appreciate the full meaning of the subject matter. That was that where Jewish men had been arrested, either picked up on the street, at home or at work when they still had work, cardboard boxes would be received by the wife or family with a note that they contained the ashes of their husband, father or brother who had died of a heart attack or had been shot while trying to escape, neither likely. This ordeal was made worse by the recipient having to pay the postage due on the parcel.\nOn Manoeuvres\nGerman Troops parade past the Brandenburg Gate\nAnother manoeuvre I witnessed took place near Berlin. According to what my mother wrote on the back of a photograph. I started school at the age of 6\u00bd which makes it April 1935. So may be it was during the summer holidays of that year that a clerk in my father's bank, who was to play an important part later, invited men to stay with him and his wife on their smallholding just outside Berlin. They had no children of their own and made a fuss of me.\nWe had a photograph of myself being decked out by them as a Red Indian with a head ornament made with chicken feathers and a large string of conkers round my neck.\nWe went rabbit shooting too but it soon became clear that I couldn't stand the noise of the report of the gun. In fact my father had given me a small replica of a fine looking and fully working six-shooter starter pistol firing blanks which I never used.\nThe significant experience of my visit was the German infantry, then on manoeuvres in the district. I was then a fair-haired Aryan-looking little boy with authentic Lederhosen and they took to me. Seven years later, in their first foray into Eastern Europe, into Poland to start with, they would kill Jews, children, men, women , the old, wholesale and a year after that would do the same in Russia.\nHowever, as they were unaware that they were dealing with a Jewish boy and believing that I was German they were keen to show me all about their rifles, how to take them apart, put them together again, load them with cartridges, unload them, apply and remove the safety catch and also their Gulaschkanone, or field kitchen, with its folding chimney stack and large cauldron on wide wheels.\nAt some time during this friendly banter one of them held me and pretended to undo the seam of my Lederhosen with his bayonet and, naturally, I felt a bit uneasy about that. So I told them that I was a Czech. I had been told to say that I was a Czech, i.e. a foreigner and therefore exempt for the time being from intimidation, whenever I was in an unsafe, threatening or uncomfortable situation and by 1935 there were many such.\nDachau (opened 22 March 1933) and Oranienburg- Sachsenhausen had been well established, the one-day boycott of Jewish shops, and Jewish doctors' and lawyer's consulting rooms on 1 April 1933 had only been a start.\nViolence was firmly established.. \"Wenn's Judenblut vom Messer spritzt dann gehts nochmal so gut\" (When Jewish blood spurts from the knife everything gets better and better) was a familiar ditty sung by the Hitlerjugend and even if its full significance may have eluded me its threatening tone didn\u2019t.\nThe strain of arrests, torture and deaths was beginning to tell as were the difficulties encountered when trying to escape it by emigration and, as it was all-pervading, even children were aware of it. So I said my get-out clause available, exceptionally, to me but not to other Jewish children, and that didn't half upset the applecart.\nTo the soldiers it meant that secrets had been divulged to a lowly Slav and a most likely future enemy, the \u201cDrang nach Osten\u201d, the drive towards the East, was official policy. All very embarrassing. So they asked me never to tell anybody what I had been shown.\nThe Newsreel Cinema\nIn fact only 17 years after Versailles war was once more never far from one's mind and vision. Before Jews were forbidden such visits, every Saturday morning I used to go with my cousin Ernst to a newsreel cinema.\nNewsreel clip of Japanese troops entering Manchuria\nIt got us out of the apartment. The newsreel cinema had the advantage of variety, Laurel and Hardy (Dick und Dof in Berlin slang) Mickey Mouse, Popeye the spinach-eating sailor and his girl friend Olive Oil, a short Western in which the Redskin invariably bit the dust, something that disturbed me, I didn\u2019t like violence, a science fiction short film and one or two newsreels, Path\u00e9 comes to mind.\nOf the latter I remember seeing small Japanese open canopy bombers dropping bombs on Manchurian cities. In those days Japan had invaded Manchuria (1933). Around that time Abyssinia had been likewise bombed and invaded by Fascist Italy and had appealed, fruitlessly, to the League of Nations. May be we saw some of that too.\nWar may not yet have been broken out in Europe but it had elsewhere. The Japanese were considered to be honorary Aryans because, although definitely non-German in looks, they had the aggressiveness and expansionist outlook and the ruthlessness and barbarity in achieving their aim, aspects which the Germans admired and emulated.\nWhen the Germans sent their Condor legion to Spain to help Franco and gain experience in low-level bombing of cities full of civilians, of which Guernica is the known example, the planes and bombs were bigger but the principle remained the same.\nOur parents had enrolled us at the Joseph Lehmann Schule, a school founded and run by the J\u0171dische Reformgemeinde, the Jewish Reformed Community, to offer an education to the many who had been expelled from the local state schools or where their stay had been made impossible by bullying, threats and intimidation by their German classmates and teachers alike.\nThe school was located on the Joachimstaler Strasse, a side street off the wide and well-known Kurf\u0171rstendam, close to the KaDeWe and the Kaiser Wilhelm Ged\u00e4chtniskirche, the church built in honour of the first emperor of Germany and bombed during the war.\nI understand that the school had been an old people\u2019s home. It was large, had a wide marble staircase, a very large Aula, really an assembly hall with raised podium and rows of fixed seats, with an organ halfway up one wall and a large and well equipped sports hall.\nAs already mentioned, apartment buildings in Berlin consisted of two parts, the more desirable building at the front facing and parallel with the main road, and the more second-class building behind the front one and separated from it by a Hof or courtyard. The Joseph Lehmann Schule was the rear building of such an arrangement and the courtyard was the schoolyard and far too small for the hundreds of children.\nWe were also surrounded and overlooked by neighbours who were probably not kindly disposed towards Jews. To enable the children to at least stretch their legs during breaks one was only allowed to walk sedately in the courtyard in an anti-clockwise direction and, so as not to upset the aforementioned neighbours, one had to be quiet.\nA former schoolmate wrote to me reminiscing that one could only walk in pairs. I had forgotten that. I would rotate with my best friend Bernt Schwarz who would also visit me frequently at home. He and his older brother Hans Heinz, who was also a pupil at that school, emigrated with their parents on time and I met Bernt in London in 1948 through my cousin Ernst who had bumped into him.\nClass photo (Frank Bright is top row center with arrow pointing at him)\nNot all that surprising because Ernst, I, and Bernt\u2019s parents lived within a stone\u2019s throw of one another. Bernt was then doing his National Service in the Royal Air Force (RAF) and proudly wearing his uniform. He told me then that his brother had served in the RAF\u2019s Bomber Command and had been shot down and killed.\nThe school also had a fully and newly equipped large Turnhalle (gym) with climbing ropes and steel tubes hanging from the ceiling, Swedish ladders along the wall, huge leather cushions, leather upholstered horses to jump over and parallel bars. I liked gymnastics and climbing, from former classmates I now know that some hated it in equal measure.\nOne of the peculiarities of the school was that boys clicked their heels in true Prussian fashion when greeting a teacher but we drilled to Hebrew/Ivrit commands using British drill, i.e. as one would have done in British-mandated Palestine.\nMy first year\u2019s teacher was Frau or Fr\u00e4ulein, Miss or Mrs., I don\u2019t know which, Brigitte Brasch. All I remember of the class is that we modelled animals in plasticine and that some of my classmates were very good at that and showed artistic promise. I wasn\u2019t among them.\nI could read before I started school and my mother spent hours going over the multiplication tables with me and, while I have forgotten most of my German and must have recourse to a dictionary when writing in that language, much of my counting is still done in German.\nLikewise I remember, and can still recite, the poems I learned there. We learned two types of writing at the same time, German Gothic script and Roman script and books too were printed in either. The Nazis preferred Gothic as it set them apart from the rest of Europe and, for that matter, from the rest of the world\nIn my second and third year, which I didn\u2019t complete, our class teacher was Herr Erich Spieldoch. Of the four fellow classmates whom I found in 2003, two boys now in Australia, two girls now in Israel, the two girls disliked him heartily. I got on alright with him except for the last day.\nHerr Spieldoch was extremely gifted. He played the organ, taught us modern Hebrew and his teaching of proportions in arithmetic has stayed with me ever since as have, as I said, the poems and literature he taught. He was a strict disciplinarian.\nOn my last day at school before our emigration he had my school report ready. I was naturally not at my best, apprehensive of what the future held in a country I didn\u2019t know, whose language I didn\u2019t speak, to be torn from a reassuring routine. My writing that day, for which I used to win praise, was not up to the usual standard, the stress showed, quite understandably.\nHe crossed out the mark he had given me for handwriting and substituted a lower one. Not the thing to do to a child of 9 who may have to present the report to his next school. I haven\u2019t got the report any more but I remember, word for word, his general comments: \u201cFranz muss bescheidener werden in dem er seine vorlaute Art ablegt\u201d. (Frank must become more modest by getting rid of his cheeky/impertinent manner).\nThat may have been his true and sincere opinion and best advice but whether one should burden an imminent emigrant with such character criticism is another matter. Naturally, the report never mattered.\nMy next school, the Jewish school in Prague, was glad to have me and, in fact, I was quiet and inhibited. The repressive atmosphere in Berlin and the unfolding tragedy in Prague didn\u2019t really make for exuberance and Jewish children in both places were denied this aspect of a normal childhood.\nThe school, as already mentioned, was the product of its time and so was its library. On a page of one of its newsletters provided by a Berlin archive there is a list of teachers and their classes for the 1936 term. There is also a note on donations of a large number of scientific and educational books brought about by emigration.\nThe teachers\u2019 library stood at 1,500 volumes, consisting mainly of fiction and poetry (belletristisch) and the books available to various classes amounted to 500 volumes, among them valuable reproductions of paintings.\nThere was also a collection of 2,500 pictures covering the disciplines of geography, natural history and the history of art. To that could be added 1,100 stereoscopic pictures with an apparatus to view them. All of this was looted later when the school was finally closed in June 1942. Much of it may well exist in German homes.\nGerman post card of Trenschien Teplitz\nMeeting the Brichta family in Slovakia\nIn 1936, when I was 7\u00bd we went to Tren\u010diansk\u00e9 Teplice, or Trenschien Teplitz in German, a holiday resort in Slovakia where I met the Slovak part of the Brichta family.\nThe hotel was on top of a steep, rocky hill accessible by a steep road and yet it had a swimming pool where I learned to swim. Only breast stroke and I haven\u2019t progressed since and now that I swim in the sea off England\u2019s East coast off Aldeburgh I am often reminded of that event. It was there that I met a little girl a year younger than me, Erika Brichta, who became the only survivor of the whole of that side of her family.\nShe was thrown from the train which took her parents to Auschwitz, was picked up by a Slovak peasant and rescued. After the war she went to Vienna where she was brought up by the only surviving member of her family from her mother\u2019s side, her grandmother. Hence she knows very little about her family from her father\u2019s side.\nPre-Emigration Concerns\nThe continuing appeal of the school can possibly be explained by it being a place to escape to, an oasis, free from the tensions surrounding one at home. At home, quite apart from the reduced circumstances families faced because the breadwinner had been thrown out of his job whether as employee or employer, there was the constant and increasing preoccupation with emigration and the tardiness by foreign consulates to reply when time was really of the essence.\nCould one leave one\u2019s parents behind, for instance. The grandfather of one of my schoolmates was a pharmacist and took an overdose to remove the problem from his children. Where could or should one attempt to emigrate to? Was it better to wait for a visa from a country with better prospects, as far as one could tell that from Berlin (or any other part of Germany), or grab what was available, or wait somewhere, just anywhere, until the right visa came along as that was beyond the reach of the Germans, even if that was in war-torn Japanese-occupied Shanghai?\nAround 17,000 German, Austrian and Czech Jews fled to Shanghai. It was a \u201cfree\u201d port and, for reasons best known to themselves, the Japanese respected that, no entry visa was required. It was however tropical, had the monsoon rain, tropical diseases unknown to European Jewish doctors, German furniture and clothing was quite unsuitable and water had to be boiled.\nThose with relatives abroad fared best but few had those. An earlier Germany which had permitted and encouraged emancipation had made for few emigrants, unlike the pressure and pogroms in Russia and Poland which had fuelled emigration as soon as railways, steamships and the growth of the United States had made that possible in the 19th century.\nCould one find a guarantor, an affidavit, how could one find the money demanded by the German authorities, in US dollars, for an exit visa, a source, like everything Jewish, of income by the state by extortion?\nShould one learn a trade? One\u2019s professional status, certainly in medicine and law, was not recognised abroad and there would be neither time nor money to go through the lengthy process of re-acquiring them there. Should one learn a language and if so, which one? For Argentina one needed Spanish, for Brazil Portuguese, for areas then coloured pink on the world atlas it was English.\nFor those who wished to remain in Europe, a choice they came to regret, it was anything from Dutch to French to Flemish to Danish. A difficult choice considering one didn\u2019t know where one would end up, if anywhere. My uncle Fritz had a visa for Haiti, that is how desperate people were. It came too late, he and his wife perished in Auschwitz in March 1943.\nEmigration was certainly not a matter of choice and of packing up and going. The USA was a particular bastion of resistance to Jewish immigration with a limited quota of annual visas per country which took no notice of the seriousness and plight of our situation. \u201cGive me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free.\u201d (Emma Lazarus, inscribed at the base of the Statue of Liberty) did not apply if the huddled masses happened to be Jews being persecuted by Germans after 1933.\nI know the details of an acquaintance in Prague, the same applied everywhere else. Thus Dr. Gottfied Bloch, MD and his parents sought entrance into the USA in 1938 after the Munich crisis when they had fled from the Sudeten to Prague.\nBoycott of Jewish Shops in Berlin\nHis visa was not issued until 1955. In the meantime he went through the ghetto of Theresienstadt, the family camp of Auschwitz where inmates knew in advance that they were going to be gassed, a death march and the concentration camp of Buchenwald. His parents were killed in Auschwitz.\nHe survived only because he was a doctor and then only just. Israel, or Palestine as it then was or one side of the river Jordan only, was for all practical purposes closed to Jewish immigration by the pressure exerted by the Palestinians on the British and willingly succumbed to. England was, very late in the day, opened to children but not to their parents, turning nearly 10,000 of them into instant orphans.\nThe last days in Berlin were disturbing. On the one hand one left behind, or so one hoped, the menace of the Nazi persecution and the pro-Nazi population, on the other hand one also went into the unknown.\nI had had private lessons in Czech with an elderly man who also taught Czech to the Berlin police. They knew where they were going even if the rest of the world didn\u2019t or didn\u2019t want to, but it was pretty useless using an old-fashioned textbook dealing with cockerels and horses, more or less on the lines of la plume de ma tant.\nObviously my parents prepared for the move as much as possible and decided that the future lay in a very small apartment and all of the furniture was sold. Not only furniture but also much of our Dresden and Rosenthal china and the contents of our vitrines or display cases of things one was proud of.\nI particularly remember staring at and admiring two large groups of painted porcelain figurines of Prussian porcelain manufacture with the sign of the two crossed curved sabres on the underside. They were of musicians. The delicacy and accuracy of the miniature piano, violin, bow and flute, the infinite number of tiny holes of the exquisite protruding cuffs of the period costumes, the faces, the white of the porcelain and the accurately delineated vivid colours were astounding.\nThey were works of art for which my mother, who dealt with the sale of the household, got nothing. I still remember the dealer telling her that, as so many Jews were leaving and selling up, the bottom had dropped out of the market.\nThus the German Berliners, and the same happened all over Germany, had not only benefited from Jewish shops, jobs, surgeries, factories, businesses and official appointments at schools, universities and hospitals, they now could get their valuables for a song too.\nRabid anti-Semitism paid rich dividends.\nThe unpublished memoirs of Frank Bright \u2013 Selected extracts used with full permission.\nDedicated to Hermann and Toni Brichta \u2013 Both murdered in Auschwitz\n\"Produced by Chris Webb\" Online version: Copyright H.E.A.R.T 2008\nCopyright.

        "raw_content": "Eliahu Rosenberg \"swearing in\"\nEliahu Rosenberg was deported from Warsaw to Treblinka along with his mother and three sisters in September 1942. He escaped during the revolt on the 2 August 1943.\nAt the Eichmann trial in Jerusalem in 1961, Eliahu Rosenberg described their arrival, a member of the Blau Kommando said:\n\u201cHe did not say it to me, but to his friend, an acquaintance of his, in Yiddish, \u201cMoshe, chap a besem un rateve sich!\u201d (Moshe, grab a broom and save yourself)\n\u201cThis man took hold of a broom that was lying at the side, went into the freight cars and began sweeping the cars. Kurt Franz \u2013 he passed by with a peitsche (whip) in his hand, and took men from the ranks who were sitting on the floor several men, about thirty of them. When I saw this I jumped into this group, with a parcel in my hand, and I stood there together with them.\nEliahu Rosenberg arrived in Treblinka with his mother and three sisters:\n\u201cWhen we alighted from the freight cars amidst the shouting, they transferred my mother and my sisters to the left-hand side. I managed to exchange one word with my mother:\n\u201cIf you reach any place write a letter to a Pole named Kowalski in Warsaw and I shall also send a letter to you, and in this way we shall know where we are.\u201d\nEliahu Rosenberg told the court of their fate:\n\u201cThey were buried in Treblinka, I got to know they were in a particular grave.\u201d -He continued about his arrival.\n\u201cWhen Kurt Franz chose the working party of thirty men, when he finished this selection, he began to shout and ask, \u201cwho came in here without permission?\u201d Naturally, none of these men knew who the extra one was - I was then saved from certain death.\nHe made a sign to the Ukrainian standing by his side, I don\u2019t know what it was, but they began chasing us towards the first camp. Inside the first camp, they told us to throw down the parcels we had with us, and we began sorting the parcels, an enormous heap of parcels \u2013 shoes separately, clothing separately, children\u2019s wear separately, gold separately and all kinds of articles separately.\nOriginal \"Sketch\" of the Treblinka Gas Chamber drawn by Eliahu Rosenberg\nAnd I worked in this way the whole day, the next day we went out in the morning- it was 11\u2019o\u2019clock \u2013 to a roll call. After this roll call, they directed us to a heap, to do roughly the same thing \u2013 to sort out all these goods.\nAfter a short while, SS-Scharfuhrer Matthias (Matthes) appeared and shouted \u201cTwenty men volunteers.\u201d I was standing near him. I was afraid that as I was standing near him and if I did not step forward, he would take revenge on me or strike me. I stepped forward.\nHe said, \u201cYou are going out to light work for ten minutes.\u201d They took us to Camp 1 (should be Camp 2) \u2013 the death camp. The gate was camouflaged with pine branches, when they opened the gate, we went in.\nAll of us were automatically in a state of shock, for we saw a pile of corpses. And the German Matthias (Matthes) began shouting to the group, \u201cAn die Tragen\u201d (to the stretchers).\nWe did not understand what was going on. We began running around the bodies. The Germans and Ukrainians who were present there hit us. We did not know what we were supposed to do.\nJewish slave labor at the Treblinka work camp\nThe Jews who worked on removing the bodies said to us, \u201cTake hold of the stretchers and put a body on each.\u201d We seized a stretcher, another person and I, I don\u2019t know what his name was, we went up to the pile, and we took a body away on a stretcher.\nWe walked to the graves \u2013 150 metres to 200 metres to the grave, and we threw the bodies down below. The grave was six to seven metres deep, it was built with a slope, in a conical shape.\nWhen we left for work in the morning, SS men divided us into working groups \u2013 there were three kinds of labour there, there were the gas chambers, the transfer of the bodies to the graves, and after that, there was the burning of the bodies.\nEliahu Rosenberg described the extermination process:\n\u201cThe people arrived from this famous \u201cHimmelstrasse,\u201c the entire staff of Camp 2, stood there with dogs, with whips and bayonets. The people walked past in silence. That was in the beginning, in summer 1942. They did not know where they were going.\nWhen they entered the gas chambers, two Ukrainians stood next to the entrance \u2013 one was Ivan and the other was Nikolai. They introduced the gas. The gas came from an engine -it was Ropa \u2013 Ropa gas. It was gas from an engine. They put in Ropa, which was a kind of oil, a crude oil and the fumes entered the gas chamber.\nSketch of the \"Lazarett\" in Treblinka (Source GFH)\nThe people who were the last to enter the gas chambers, the very last received stabs in the bodies from the bayonets, since the last persons already saw what was going on inside and did not want to enter.\nFour hundred people were put into one small chamber, and when they forced them in, they, on their part, pressed inwards and in this way reached the full capacity, so that only with difficulty could the outer door of the chamber be shut.\nWhen they shut them in, we were standing on the outside, we only heard cries of \u201cShema Yisrael, Father, Mother.\u201d Thirty five minutes later they were dead.\nTwo Germans stood there listening to what was going on inside, afterwards they said \u201cAlles Schlafen.\u201d They ordered us to open the door, we opened the door and removed the bodies.\nIn Camp 2, there were roughly two hundred men working on removing the bodies from the gas chambers. Eliahu Rosenberg was asked once more about the gas chambers\n\u201cI have already said that this building had three chambers. Here, there were five on this side and five on that side. Once \u2013 and I remember this well \u2013 all the gas chambers were operating.\nTen thousand people entered all at once, within forty \u2013five minutes. This was a transport of thirteen thousand persons who had arrived on that day.\nRosenberg giving testimony at a later trial in Israel\nEach chamber was sealed \u2013 absolutely hermetically sealed. There was a kind of folding door that opened downwards, we extracted the \u201cclins.\u201d The \u201cclins\u201d were pieces of wood that used to hold the doors in place.\nWhen the door was folded and fell to the bottom, there were actually two boards there. One was on top of the door and the other at the bottom, and again, with these pieces of wood, these \u201cclins\u201d we closed it hermetically and stood to the side.\nWe closed it from the outside, before that the Germans stood on the ramp and watched what was going on inside. When they said \u201cAlles Schlafen\u201d ( All Sleeping) we opened it up and stood aside for three minutes until the fumes had dispersed, and then we removed them. We then threw them down the ramp.\nWhen I removed the bodies from the gas chambers, the people, mostly women, had hidden all kinds of documents and money in their private parts, and they fell out afterwards, and we saw them.\nThere were many cases of people from the gas chambers who remained alive, those who survived were mainly children who slipped to the floor, and when we opened the gas chamber and removed the bodies, we saw children underneath who had remained alive. The Germans took them away and shot them.",

There are times that replacement of shingles is necessary. Below are some of the best ways to determine if you need to consider having a professional roofer repair or replace the shingles on your roof.\nObvious Interior Leaks\nLeaks inside the building that come from roof problems have to be fixed quickly before it results in thousands of dollars in water damage to other parts of the structure. These types of leaks can appear as damp walls, water spots on interior ceilings, wet insulation and beams in the attic, or unexplained electrical problems. Lights that flicker frequently during rainy periods are a sign that water is leaking onto areas of electrical wiring.\nHeavy Granular Residue in Gutters\nWhen you find a bunch of granular material in the gutters, you can be sure it has come off of the top surface of the shingles. It is placed on the surface of shingles to help reflect the rays of the sun. You should have a professional inspect the roof and make sure the shingles are still in good shape.\nNo matter how small the area is with missing shingles, they need to be replaced to keep a seal against moisture. Shingles can go missing from storms, high winds, age, and other sorts of damage. These are areas that need to be repaired quickly to preserve the wood that resides beneath the shingles.\nCurled and Broken Shingles\nInspecting the edges of the roof closely can reveal a lot of information about the health of your shingles. If they are curling at the ends, brittle and breaking, it is time to consider placing new shingles on the roof. Curled and broken shingles offer access to water intrusion that can and will cause extensive damage to the roof.\nShingles Over 30-Years Old\nIf your shingled roof has reached the age of 25 to 30 years, it is a good idea to begin making plans to totally change out the shingles. You may have a few more years of use left, but you can begin to establish the budget to have the roof resurfaced when it is convenient and needed.\nContact an expert roofing company Hanover MA like South Shore Roofers and set an appointment for a roof inspection today!\nPros and Cons of Synthetic Hair Wigs\n*This is a sponsored post. All thoughts and opinions are my own.\nIf you are looking into getting a hair wig, chances are you've come across synthetic hair wigs as well as human hair wigs. Both kinds of wigs have their pros and cons, obviously, so some research is helpful before making a purchase. Let's take a look at the benefits and downsides of synthetic wigs to hopefully help you in your choice.\nThere are several advantages to wearing a synthetic hair wig. First of all, whatever style you end up choosing is the style you will have permanently (or for as long as you wear the wig, obviously). Synthetic wigs basically have a \"memory\" of sorts, which means that you don't have to fuss with it to retain the original style, even after washing. For example, if you choose a wavy or curly synthetic hair wig, you don't have to fuss with curling every time - or ever - after washing. Another benefit to synthetic hair wigs is the price. These are much more affordable than a human hair wig. So if price is an issue for you, or you just don't feel like shelling out $500 or more for a wig, synthetic is definitely the way to go for you. One last benefit I'll mention is that I have heard that if you want a short hairstyle, synthetic wigs work much better and require much less fuss and care than a human hair wig.\nDownsides to synthetic wigs are pretty simple. You can't use heat styling tools on them, which of course you don't really need, since the style is locked in. Why worry over not being able to use a curling iron when you don't need to? Obviously, you can't change the style or color of a synthetic hair wig but again, as long as you like the look of the wig you purchase, there are no worries! Lastly, if you want a longer hairstyle, synthetic wigs may not work for you as the friction caused by your hair rubbing against the synthetic hair can result in frizz. There are some ways to reduce this, but again, if you like a shoulder-length or shorter hair style, this won't be a concern for you.\nDivatress is a leading beauty company that I recently learned about, and I was amazed to see the amount of beauty products they offer. Take a look at their catalog that includes beauty products, makeup, hair care products, and you guessed it, synthetic wigs!\nHow We Chose a New Vehicle\nOur family recently purchased a new (used) car. This was a process we put a lot of thought, research, and of course, prayer, into. Let's be honest, a vehicle is a rather large purchase, and it's something you hope will last you for quite a few years-you don't want to be looking for a new car every year!\nOur first step was obviously deciding what type or size of vehicle would work best for our needs. We take quite a few weekend trips as well as a few 2-week trips every year, so we wanted something with third-row seating and a lot of room for luggage. There's usually 4-5 of us on the trips, and being girls, you know we pack more luggage than we actually need! Having something that would be able to pull a small trailer was something we would like, but not necessarily a necessity. From past experience, I knew my top choice would be a Ford Explorer, but we were open to any type of SUV around that size.\nThe next step was looking for vehicles within a 2-hour radius of us. We live in a pretty small area so there aren't a huge amount of dealers to choose from nearby, which made the internet a big help. One of my favorite websites to use while doing all this was Cars.com. You can search for new or used cars, and also, my favorite part, check out reviews on vehicles. There was one SUV we had been looking at (I don't recall which make/model it was now) that I was very thankful I had checked reviews before we drove to look at it an hour and a half away. It looked/sounded great, was within our price range, and a newer model, but after reading reviews about how it didn't hold up well, we crossed that one off our list. I can not stress enough how important research is - especially reading reviews - when looking to buy a new vehicle!\nThe last step in our car-purchase experience was having my dad check out the vehicles. He definitely knows more about cars than I do, so it's helpful to have someone with more car-savvy than I possess to look at each vehicle we thought might be an option. He was quick to point out flaws with some, gave a so-so rating on others, and on the one we ended up purchasing, was completely sold on the vehicle's condition, reliability, and overall good fit for us. And wouldn't you know, we even ended up with the exact make and model of vehicle I was hoping for! We've had this vehicle for a little over three months now and have put about 7,000 miles on it in that time. (I said we do a lot of weekend trips!) All our research definitely paid off, as we have not had the slightest bit of trouble with our Explorer.\nKeeping Your Boat Shipshape\nBuying the Necessary Components to Fix Your Vessel\nIt is up to you as the captain and owner of your own yacht to keep your vessel in seaworthy condition.

These sweet gifts can be given for a graduation, holiday, birthday or just to cheer someone up and make them smile. They are easy to make and customize with any cookie design that you think the person would like and in any color to match the occasion.\nBefore you do anything with the basket or the decorations, you need to think about the kind of cookie that you want to make and get the cutters to make them. It's easier to use a cookie cutter than to try to design the shapes using a knife or other tools. If you're making the basket for Christmas, then consider a combination of trees, snowmen, and bells or pumpkins and witches for Halloween. Birthday bouquets could include anything from flowers to animals. Find out what the person likes, customizing the cookie bouquets that you make so that it's something that is just for them to enjoy that day.\nWhen you make the cookies, use sugar cookie dough. Roll the dough so that it's thick. This will allow the cookies to hold up to the icing that is used. A thicker cookie will also work better with the sticks that are used to hold them up in the bouquet. Avoid using gels when decorating as they can tend to run, especially if the bouquet will be in a warmer environment while in transit from one location to another. Use a thicker icing instead of one that's whipped so that it stays in place on the cookie a bit better.\nA tip for getting the ideal thickness for the cookies that you make is to put a paint stick on either side of the dough. Roll out the dough until it's level with the sticks. Sucker sticks work well instead of craft sticks for inserting into the cookie. Put the sticks into the cookies before you bake them so that the dough can harden around the sticks. Let the cookies cool completely before decorating. Position the decorated cookies so that they look like a bouquet before wrapping the entire gift with cellophane.\nInteresting Ideas For New Businesses\nWith it becoming easier than ever for people to work from home, it's no wonder that people are itching for something that's both creative and financially rewarding to occupy their time with.

A lot of the time, you see the same gifts over and over. Coffee shop gift card, socks from your parents, clothes from your best friend and maybe some flowers or chocolates every once in awhile. I for one, love getting unique and creative gifts and I figure others do as well, so I came up with a list of a few creative gift ideas for those special people in your life. Mother\u2019s Day is coming up, so definitely take that into consideration while reading through this list!!\nWho would not want a getaway gifted to them? There are so many ways you can go about doing this. If they are a parent, offer to watch their children while they take a trip! If you are giving a gift to your sister or best friend, plan a fun girls trip. Anything goes - just make sure you keep thinking about what they would like instead of what you would like. There are a few things to consider when planning a trip. If you are planning an out of the country trip, you need to make sure they have an updated passport! This is very, very important. If they have dogs or kids, you need to make sure that it would be easy for them to find someone to watch them (or you can bring them, too). If they have a job, make sure they are able to take off work if necessary. And last but not least, make sure they want to go on a trip in the first place (but really, who wouldn\u2019t want to go?!).\nUseful Gift Cards\nThis is always a fantastic gift option, no matter who you are giving a gift to. Safe bets are grocery stores, gas stations, Visa gift cards, and Amazon cards. It is so fun giving someone a gift card that isn\u2019t your typical coffee shop gift card or clothes store gift card. Giving them something that they will actually use and really appreciate is definitely the way to go. If you are gifting a college student, a grocery store or gas station gift card would be the best! Bonus points if you can find out what electric company they use and somehow pay their electric bill! For parents, I would stick with Amazon cards or Visa gift cards so that they can get whatever they need. For new homeowners, a great gift card idea is Lowes or Home Depot! If they are a new parent, definitely go with a gift card that can help them buy baby essentials or food.\nSomething They Really Need\nIt is the best feeling in the world when you can give someone what they really need as a gift. Like I mentioned above, you could always give them a gas or grocery gift card if that is what they need. You could help them complete a house project if they are struggling with home issues. If you know someone that needs their car fixed, help them out if you can! Do you have friends that are constantly running their kids around and never get time to themselves? Gift them a date night (and maybe even throw in a babysitter or offer to watch their kids). Everyone is different and has different needs but just figure out what they need and if you can help them fix their issue, that is an amazing gift!\nA Piece For Their Home\nI don\u2019t know about you, but I absolutely love getting new artwork and decor pieces for my home but it\u2019s pretty hard to find the time to go out and actually find exactly what you are looking for (I guess this is why online shopping is so popular!). If you want to find an awesome and unique decor idea, then search no further than Swords of Northshire! Swords of Northshire sells Samurai Swords, Ninja Swords, Knives, Custom Swords, and Accessories. As you search through the website, you will find a huge selection of hand forged, battle ready weapons that are made historically accurate! They even have collector\u2019s replicas that would make the perfect gift for a video game or movie lover. Customer service is their highest priority, so feel free to contact them if you need help deciding what to purchase! I believe this is a great gift idea because it will add a great new talking piece to their home. Not only is it a piece of art for their wall but since the swords are battle ready, it can also be used for self defense which is an added bonus.\nPhoto Credit: Swords of Northshire\nThis is every mom\u2019s dream. Mother\u2019s Day is just around the corner and this would be the perfect gift for your mom! Cleaning a home is a day-long project, so wouldn\u2019t it be nice to come home from a long Friday at work and be able to kick up your feet the rest of the weekend instead of having to clean? I know this is my dream!\nExperiences are always a great gift idea. Think about what they love to do or what they have always wanted to try and go for it! If you search Groupon and other websites like that, you can find a whole list of things to do in your area. There are options like rock climbing, parasailing, sky diving, and dining events, just to give you an idea! You will be able to find something for anyone on there.\nA Themed Gift\nCinco De Mayo is tomorrow, so for example, you could create a gift bag with tortilla chips, a few gourmet salsas, salsa bowls, and a cute guacamole dip recipe card. It would also be fun to add a pinata or something else unique. Think about the holiday closest to you, or a theme that they really love (it can be anything - movies, tv shows, characters, etc.), and create a customized gift basket for them!\nThere are so many creative gift ideas out there and I know that you will create the perfect gift for the special people in your life! You know what they love and what they need, so go with your heart and you cannot go wrong! Also, don\u2019t forget to check out Swords of Northshire if you are looking for a creative piece for their home!\nLabels: cinco de mayo, custom swords, experience gifts, getaway gifts, gift ideas, knives, martial arts, mothers day, ninja sword, north shire swords, perfect gift, samurai sword, unique gifts, vacation gifts",

        "raw_content": "Visitors welcome to Open Morning 2017\nHundreds of prospective students and parents are set to flock to Highfields for the school's annual Open Morning, where they can meet our students and staff, get a glimpse of the facilities and take part in dozens of interactive workshops and activities showcasing what the school has to offer.\nThe Open Morning will take place from 10am to 12.30pm on Saturday, September 23rd.\nHands-on scientific experiments, Guitar Hero music challenges, performances of Shakespeare's Twelfth Night, sports displays, pizza making demonstrations and psychology experiments are among the many activities lined up for the hundreds of visitors expected on the day. Visitors can also learn how to pack a rucksack as part of a Duke of Edinburgh display and put forensics to good use to find the 'criminal' by taking fingerprints and analysing shoe prints and fibres in our lab. A cake sale will be held on the day to raise money for Macmillan Cancer Support.\nHeadteacher, Mr G.Tate, will speak to parents in The Lyceum at 10.15am, 11am and 11.45am.\nMr Tate said: \u201cOur Open Morning provides a wonderful opportunity for prospective students and visitors to get a feel for the many things we offer at Highfields.\n\"At Highfields, we pride ourselves on providing youngsters with a high quality education, an engaging curriculum and a wide range of extra-curricular activities to enrich their learning experiences.\n\"We relish the opportunity to open our doors to visitors to showcase what our school is all about and everything that makes Highfields so special.\"\nVisitors who would like to see Highfields at work during the day should call Mrs Thomas on 01902 556530 to arrange an appointment on one of the following dates:\nTuesday 26th September at 9:30am or 11:30am\nWednesday 27th September at 9:30am or 11:30 am\nThursday 28th September at 9:30am or 11:30am\nTuesday 3rd October at 9:30am or 11:30am\nWednesday 4th October at 9:30am or 11:30am\nThursday 5th October 1t 9.30am or 11.30am\nTuesday 10th October at 9:30am or 11:30am\nWednesday 11th October at 9.30am or 11.30am\nThe Open Morning comes after Highfields celebrated another outstanding set of GCSE results - with 109 students achieving the highest gradings of 7 or above in English or Maths.

        "raw_content": "November 1, 2017 Dana Huff\nThis picture shows three special groups of students. In the frame in the upper left is my last group of advisees at the Weber School before I moved away from Georgia to Massachusetts. They took this picture of themselves at the Winter Formal and framed it for me as a going-away gift. These students graduated two years after I left\u2014Class of 2014. They were such a good group that my colleague Nicki Brite claimed them all for advisory before my last school year had ended. They are sophomores in this picture.\nOn the bottom are my first group of advisees at Worcester Academy. This crew graduated in 2016, and two of them were my advisees for all four years of high school. I picked up the rest in sophomore, junior, or senior year. They were a lively group. This is their senior picture, and they are wearing their college tee-shirts. My current advisees at Worcester Academy are sophomores this year.\nThe students on the right are standing in front of Walden Pond. Many of these students were in my class for as many as three years, and I think most of them had my class for at least two years. They are sophomores in this particular picture. At the Weber School, American Literature was a sophomore English class, and most of these students also took my Writing Seminar class as well. We knew each other well. They made this picture because we studied Thoreau in class, and I could not be there with them to experience Walden. They graduated in 2009. I was close to these students. Many of them connect with me on Facebook or Twitter. One of them tweeted this response to my last blog post.\nWish I could take a class of yours again someday\u2026\n\u2014 GNUKidsOnTheBlock (@JulianGindi) October 25, 2017\nHis comment moved me incredibly, but if I\u2019m honest, he didn\u2019t have the teacher I describe in that blog post. I was in a different place when I taught him and his peers, and I learned a lot in the years that followed. Issues of conscience and social justice are much more important to me now. Student agency is far more important to me now. Students have more voice and more choices in my classroom in 2017 than they did in 2007. Yet this student\u2019s comment is evidence of one of my core beliefs. Over time, we will probably forget the mechanics of how to format a paper according to MLA guidelines, what a participle is, or what the red hunting hat symbolizes. What we don\u2019t forget is how our teachers make us feel. If we knew they loved us and we loved them back, we remember their classes fondly. And we certainly remember how they helped us grow in the most crucial ways: becoming critical readers and thinkers, effective communicators, and lifelong learners.\nAs department chairs at Worcester Academy, we recently read an article called \u201cFour Predictions for Students\u2019 Tomorrows\u201d by Erik Palmer in the March 2016 issue of Educational Leadership. You need to be an ASCD member to view the article at the link. What Palmer argues in the article is that what we think about years after we graduate are the things we wish we had been taught. As Palmer reminds us in the article, we are preparing our students for their futures. It\u2019s a moving target. However, we do know that students are going to need to be critical researchers (especially using the internet well), they will need to be media literate and make logical arguments, they will need to be able to speak and listen, and they will need to be good critical thinkers. None of this is new. As Palmer points out in his conclusion, \u201cArgument, rhetoric, and oral communication have been important since ancient Greece\u201d (22).\nThinking about how my approach to teaching has changed, I am curious: What do my students wish they had learned in my class?\nStay tuned. I just asked my students. I\u2019ll let you know what they have to say.\nWhat about you? What do you wish you\u2019d learned in school?\nCitation: Palmer, Erik. \u201cFour Predictions for Students\u2019 Tomorrows.\u201d Educational Leadership, vol. 73, no. 6, Mar. 2016, pp. 18-22.\nA Sticky Problem: Teachers and Grammar\nWhy I Threw Out the Lesson Plan\nengaging learnerslearningsocial learningstudentsteaching\nUnderstanding by Design: The Big Picture: UbD as Curriculum Framework",

The news follows last week\u2019s sneak preview of the album\u2019s first track, \u201cI Hope You Suffer,\u201d which the band posted on their official site, www.afireinside.net.\nRolling Stone described \u201cI Hope You Suffer\u201d (which is now available on iTunes) as an \u201cepic\u201d song,\u201clayering [lead vocalist Davey] Havok\u2019s anguished cries within a lightning storm of distortion, synthetic orchestrations, and volcanic percussion.\u201d\nAbout the album, Havok says, \u201cThis record is of silence, of burials, and the burials that result from that silence. It\u2019s of betrayal, cruelty, weakness, anxiety, panic \u2013 deep and slow \u2013 despair, injury and loss. And in this it is shamefully honest and resolutely unforgiving.\u201d\nAFI (Havok, guitarist Jade Puget, bassist Hunter Burgan and drummer Adam Carson) will be performing \u201cI Hope You Suffer\u201d and previewing additional songs from Burials during their upcoming North American tour, which kicks off September 12th at the Varsity Theater at Minneapolis (see itinerary below).\nBurials is AFI\u2019s ninth full-length studio album and first for Republic Records. The Cali-based band recorded the album with producer Gil Norton (Pixies, Patti Smith, Foo Fighters) at East West Studios in Los Angeles. The record was mixed by Andrew Scheps (Metallica, Red Hot Chili Peppers).\nOver the course of the past several weeks, the band has posted a series of starkly shot black and white vignettes, the first of which debuted in early April. Together with director Surround (The Killers, TV on the Radio, The Drums, Usher, The Bravery), they\u2019ve created six to date, all of which can be seen at www.afireinside.net.\nIn other news, a remix of a new AFI song titled \u201c17 Crimes\u201d will serve as the end title track to the upcoming film, The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones. \u201c17 Crimes\u201d also appears on the soundtrack, which is being released on August 20th.\nSince the release of 1995\u2019s debut album Answer That and Stay Fashionable, AFI have written and recorded five top ten hit singles (\u201cMiss Murder,\u201d \u201cMedicate,\u201d \u201cLove Like Winter,\u201d \u201cSilver and Gold,\u201d \u201cGirl\u2019s Not Grey\u201d), hit No. 1 on The Billboard 200 (with the stunning Decemberunderground), garnered critical acclaim and amassed a fiercely loyal international following whose members number in the millions.\nDates for AFI\u2019s headlining tour of North America are as follows:\n9/12 \u2013 Minneapolis, MN \u2013 Varsity Theater\n9/15 \u2013 Chicago, IL \u2013 Humboldt Park/Riot Fest\n9/21 \u2013 Byers, CO \u2013 May Farms, Riot Fest\n10/12 \u2013 Sayreville, NJ \u2013 Starland Ballroom\n10/14 \u2013 Pittsburgh, PA \u2013 Club Zoo\n10/20 \u2013 Tempe, AZ \u2013 Marquee Theatre\n10/22 \u2013 Los Angeles, CA \u2013 Henry Fonda Theatre\n10/25 \u2013 Pomona, CA \u2013 Fox Theater\n10/26 \u2013 Las Vegas, NV \u2013 House of Blues\n10/28 \u2013 Santa Cruz, CA \u2013 The Catalyst\n10/31 \u2013 Portland, OR \u2013 Roseland Theatre\n11/1 \u2013 Seattle, WA \u2013 The Showbox at the Market\n11/2 \u2013 Vancouver, BC \u2013 The Commodore Ballroom\nLimp Bizkit Drops New Video \"Ready To Go\" Featuring Lil' Wayne\nAlter Bridge To Unleash Highly Anticipated New Album 'Fortress' On October 8th\nKris Kristofferson Joins Third Season of Television Series \"Troubadour, TX\"\nCameron The Public: Cameron Rafati Discusses The Band's Forthcoming EP\nSLASH Featuring Myles Kennedy and The Conspirators: To Broadcast Concert On July 25th\nLiving With Def Leppard: Iconic Band Land Documentary Series\nJohn Waite Discusses His Career, Longevity, New Live Album And Much More!\nTags: Adam Carson, AFI, AFI burials, AFI I hope you suffer, Davey Havok, entertainment, Hunter Burgan, Jade Puget, Music, Republic Records, Riot Fest 2013, rock music",

        "raw_content": "*BLOG TOUR* ALL LINED UP by Cora Carmack: Review + Character Interview + Giveaway!\n*** A Character Interview with Dallas Cole ***\nHi Dallas! Welcome to the blog, and thank you so much for taking the time to talk to me today! I have to tell you, I really connected with you throughout this book...I even took the quiz (HERE!). I\u2019m definitely a Dallas. haha.\nYou literally fell upon Carson McClain at one of your first college parties\u2026.what were your first thoughts or impressions of him?\nIt was something along the lines of, \"Oh God, here we go again.\" Followed by, \"Oh God, he's gorgeous.\" Followed by \"Oh God, he's going to try to catch me.\" Followed by, \"Oh God, he's an idiot.\" Followed by, \"Oh God, he's REALLY gorgeous.\"\nWhat I love about your story is that it really is more than a love story of boy meets girl. It\u2019s also a story about the love between a father and daughter. Can you tell the readers a little about your relationship with your dad? OR Can you share one of your favorite memories with your dad?\nOh gosh. My Dad and I are very alike. We're both stubborn and competitive and we worry a lot. It is that worry that is always at the center of our issues. He worries about me being able to support myself... about my uncertain artistic future. I worry about failure, about settling for the safe things instead of chasing my dreams. I worry about how settling would affect me, whether it would break me. We just have different ideas about what is best for me. Neither of us is particularly good at being affectionate either. We're super awkward in any situation concerning emotions. I remember one time he hugged me in front of tons of people when I won an award in Middle School, and it was probably the single most awkward moment of my tween years (and that's saying something).\nI\u2019ve heard all about what an amazing dancer you are\u2026.If you had to chose just one song to perform to, what would it be?\nOh man, you can't ask me that! I always have no fewer than four songs running through my mind at any given time. Lately I've been loving \"Falling or Flying\" by Grace Potter and the Nocturnals - I've been playing a lot with the juxtaposition of \"falling\" and \"flying\" in my dance, and this song is kind of perfect for that.\nWhat was one of the wildest \u201cStella\u2019s (Suck-it-up-you-prude) Stamp of Approvals\u201d that you were compelled to follow through on?\nSo, there's this religious group (some people would say it's a cult...and by \"some people\" I mean \"everyone\") that has this big compound about twenty miles outside of our town, and it's sort of a rite of passage at our high school for graduating seniors to visit the compound in the middle of the night and steal an informational pamphlet about the cult. As you can imagine, Stella was ALL about this, and wanted to take it a step further by getting a selfie on the front porch of the cult leader's house. I didn't want to go but she used the stamp, so I got stuck driving the getaway car. Let's just say, the cult leader didn't take kindly to being woken up by camera flashes in front of his house at 3 AM. I've never run so fast in my entire life.\nIf you were to get a tattoo, what would you get and why?\nWell, this is a huge IF, because I am 99.9% sure I will NEVER get a tattoo....I don't do well with needles. But if there were some magical way to get a tattoo that didn't involve needles or pain, I would get something to do with dance. I met a dancer once who had the phrase \"I walk forward in the certainty that my dance is secure\" tattooed on the arches of her feet, so that when she stood in first position you could read it. I thought that was really neat.\nMy first pair of pointe shoes. I got them when I was eleven. I only danced en pointe for a few months before Dad moved us, and my new studio didn't offer that level of ballet, but those were some of the best few months of my life.\nOk, time for a little quickfire round\u2026.\nSweet or spicy? spicy\nCelebrity crush? Liam Hemsworth (swoon)\nYour pet peeve? When people are terrible drivers and don't do the thank you wave! Is that just a Texas thing? If I'm gonna let you merge in front of me, you BETTER wave at me in your rearview mirror to say thank you, or you are dead to me.\nYour go to comfort food? Anything chicken. Preferably fried.\nThe best sound in the world? there's this sound that Carson makes when we OH MY GOD I CAN'T SAY THAT.\nFootball fan? Yes or No? *sigh* Kind of? Depends on the day.\nThanks again Dallas! It was so wonderful having you here! I can\u2019t wait for everyone to experience your story. I really truly hope that we\u2019ll be seeing a lot more of you!\n*Spoiler-Free* REVIEW: All Lined Up by Cora Carmack\nWith each new novel, Cora Carmack has never ceased to amaze and surprise me, not only with her immense ability to weave words into tales full of humor and heart, but with her talent for creating memorable and lovable stories and characters. Her latest novel, All Lined Up, bears no exception. In fact, Cora and her novel have both gone above and beyond my high expectations of them.\nAll Lined Up is the first novel of her sophomore series. The Rusk University series is being touted as New Adult meets Friday Night Lights, however don\u2019t be fooled into thinking that it is just about football. What Cora has written is an intensely truthful novel not only about the love between the boy who meets girl, but the love and meaning of family and friendship.\nEach character within the novel, from the highly relatable Dallas, our heroine, to the hardworking, swoonworthy Carson, the hilarious spitfire best friend Stella, to the gruffly demanding father/coach, brings something very important to the novel creating a truly phenomenal ensemble cast of characters. This is just another facet of why this novel works so well.\nThis book allows you to really explore, not only the emerging relationship between Dallas and Carson, but who they were as individuals as well. Their romance is definitely a steamy one, but what I loved about it, was the friendship that develops on the way from A to B. It\u2019s a very real and honest relationship that could jump right off the page and into real life.\nThe same could be said for Dallas\u2019s relationship with her father (and Carson\u2019s coach). The struggles between the dad who doesn\u2019t quite know how to raise the daughter who doesn\u2019t fit into his area of expertise, and the daughter who wants to pursue her dreams but doesn\u2019t know how to separate herself from her dad\u2019s expectations of her. I felt this relationship to my core and despite all the trials and missteps, you still feel the love hidden in every word between them.\nI have been a huge fan of Cora\u2019s Losing It series, and All Lined Up has shown that she\u2019s not a one trick pony. This was a unique and engaging novel that sucked me in, left me begging for more, and fully invested in this series. Whoever took the chance to publish Cora Carmack for the first time, I owe you my heartfelt thanks! But really, this was probably the smartest and best decision you\u2019ve ever made.\nA beautiful novel, one of her best yet. Go get it now.\nAvailable for ORDER NOW!!\nAND NOW THE GIVEAWAY!!\nWin one of 5 signed copies of ALL LINED UP for 5 winners (US Only).\nor the via link....\nLabels: All Lined Up , Blog Tour , Character Interview , Cora Carmack , Giveaway , New Adult , New Releases , Review , The *All-Stars*\nBliss Silverleaf May 24, 2014 at 12:49 PM\nOkay, favourite thing about them... mmmh... I don't know, the fact that they're more complex, not banal characters, because they had to set up the mask of the perfect player against that of the guys they really are.\nHeard about Goshen NY maid service information January 26, 2018 at 10:42 PM\nTheir story is so sweet and real that you feel like you are in the book. Great writing, great story.",

        "title": "Free Office Suite for Windows and Android: Kingsoft Office",
        "raw_content": "Free Office Suite for Windows and Android: Kingsoft Office\nBy Zoran Valentak on\t June 10, 2012 Office Suites\nKingsoft Office Free is an alternative to the industry standard when it comes to office suites, Microsoft Office, and it\u2019s also an alternative to other similar free office suites that are available out there. On one hand, Kingsoft Office has certain advantages, for example there is actually an Android version of it, which you can use on your smartphones or tablets powered with Android. On the other hand, the downside of Kingsoft Office, the desktop version of it at least would be that it only offers writing, spreadsheets and presentation applications. OpenOffice and LibreOffice for example also offer database apps in their suits.\nInstallation of Kingsoft Office is very simple, and the download is not very large, less than 100MB, which makes it a great choice for older machines which would normally be suffocated by more heavier office applications. Program comes with samples and templates, for some apps, that you can use in your work, which is a nice touch. At the end of installation you can choose to associate office extensions like .doc, .ppt and .xls with Kingsoft Office, be careful with this option if you don\u2019t want to use Kingsoft as your default app for these file formats. Notice that next to this free version, there are also paid ones, which are offering some more advanced options, some of which would be:\nVisual Basic for Applications support\nSwitch interface options\nCover page in Writer\nWhat kind of features does Kingsoft Office Suite have?\nNow, so that it doesn\u2019t look as though we are only focusing on the bad, let\u2019s talk about some of the things that you get by installing Kingsoft Office, the free version. The list of features is pretty long, so we\u2019re just gonna single out the most interesting ones:\nCompatibility with Office and its file extensions\nPDF file conversion and creation\nAll the file manipulations that you get in Microsoft Office\nTabs for when you have several documents opened at once\nFor those who do not need advanced features which can only be found in its commercial counterparts, Kingsoft is more than enough. The most important feature that\u2019s necessary in every alternative office suite, document compatibility with that of Microsoft Office is there, even for the Office 2007/2010 .docx format. You can continue editing files from Office very easily. Strangely enough there is no support for the OpenOffice file format, here\u2019s a complete list of formats which you can open, edit and save with the help of Kingsoft Office:\n.doc, .docx, .dot, .rtf, .wps, .wpt, .txt, .html, .mhtml, .mht\n.et, .ett, .xls, .xlt, .xlsx, .dbf, .csv, .xml\n.dps, .dpt, .ppt, .pps, . pot, .pptx\nKingsoft Office also offers its own file format, those would be the unknown ones that you can find on the list above. Saving in that file format is not a very wise thing though, because not many other programs support them, and if you for some reason were not able to use Kingsoft, for example if you were on another computer where a different office suite is installed, then you won\u2019t be able to open the files and make changes. Let\u2019s now have a close look at each one of the three apps that Kingsoft has to offer, what their advantages and disadvantages might be, and to see if they would be a decent substitute for other Office suites.\nKingsoft Office Writer Free\nWhen you first start the Writer portion of Kingsoft, you\u2019ll see a very familiar scene because the interface is very similar to that of Office 2003, not very similar to the look of the newer versions of Office though, 2007 and 2010, but you can activate the newer style by clicking on the style button on the top right corner of the program and purchasing the full version of the program, since the new style is not available in the free version.\nLook at the screenshot above to get a better picture of what we are talking about. You also get some grasp of the tools for file editing options that you get with the Writer. The usual toolbars are all there, and they have practically the same look and arrangement like that of Office, again similarities with Microsoft\u2019s Office.\nSomething that we were very anxious to test out is how the writer will handle the .docx file format. A common problem with these types of alternative office software is that even though compatibility is declared, it\u2019s not very good, so we decided to test with a file which was created in Office 2007 and saved as .docx, and results were not perfect, but still very satisfying.\nSome symbols which were present in this table are not being displayed, but that could be because of font limitations. Everything else was just fine, and we were able to continue editing the file just fine.\nEverything else worked just fine, the usual adding of tables, shapes, text formatting, paragraphs, we could do all of those things and much more. You can add Math equations, hyperlinks, data charts and even use various different fonts. Kingsoft Writer comes with a few of its own, and you can add new ones by adding fonts to the system. Tabs are a very nice touch, because this is something that\u2019s not present in other software like OmegaOffice and IBM Lotus Symphony. All in all Kingsoft Writer is more than good, try it and see for yourself.\nCreating spreadsheets with Kingsoft Spreadsheets\nThe Spreadsheets portion of the program continues with the same amazing similarities in the interface to that of Microsoft\u2019s Excel. Here also there\u2019s an option to upgrade to the style which mimics the style of Excel 2010, but to do that you\u2019ll have to switch to the paid version:\nFirst thing that has to be mentioned is the amazing selection of templates that comes with Kingsoft Spreadsheets. To access the templates you\u2019re gonna have to click on File and then select New from template. Choose between various template types, there are Business, Education, Office and Personal template types to choose from. If you are interested in keeping a monthly budget, it\u2019s easy with a very clean and intuitive Monthly Budget template:\nFunctions, the most important part of any spreadsheet application is of course present in Kingsoft Spreadsheets, and they work just like in any other office software. The same possibilities of adding shapes, images, and various other objects into your spreadsheet are present, and the ever useful tabs, for easy switching between sheets, are also found in the Spreadsheets.\nThe transition from Microsoft Excel, LibreOffice Calc and OpenOffice Calc should not be too drastic, overall style is the same, format compatibility is there, so what more could you ask. Kingsoft Spreadsheets Free is the perfect budget solution for creating spreadsheets, because it\u2019s free, how much more budget can it get?\nKingsoft Presentations Free\nFor starters let\u2019s just say that pretty much everything that you can do in Writer and Spreadsheets you can do in Presentation, so that I don\u2019t repeat myself. Of course I\u2019m not saying that you can create text documents and spreadsheets in Kingsoft Presentations, because you can\u2019t ,we are after all talking about presentation software, which is used, go figure to create presentations. What I\u2019m referring to is the fact that you get all the same editing options and tools, only here you use them to create presentations for school or business.\nPresentation comes with a lot of different templates that you can use in your presentations, a lot more than what you get in Spreadsheets, there\u2019s over 20 different cool templates that you can use.\nCreating presentations is very simple, select between an empty file or one of the above mentioned pre-made templates, and then start adding editing the presentation so that it looks the way you want it to look. After that start adding text and images, you know the drill. The most important part of any presentation software, cool effects for text and image can be found in Kingsoft Presentation, :). You can choose between\nEntrance and exit effects\nEmphasis effects\nGrow or Shrink\nMotions paths\nDiagonal down and up right\nDown, Left, Up and Right\nThe emphasis effects are used when you have something in your presentations that you want to point out, as the name of the effect suggests. There\u2019s just too many options which are being offered, so try out the Presentation software yourself and see what it has to offer exactly.\nIf you are looking for an alternative to expensive commercial office suits, well then Kingsoft Office is definitely a worthy substitute, if not that, it should by all means go into your consider list of software. If there were a database application offered, it would be even better, but even with just Writer, Spreadsheet and Presentation, Kingsoft Office has a lot to offer, it\u2019s very easy to use and light on the resources, so even those with older computers can enjoy it.\nWorks With: Windows, Android\nTags: office suite",

        "title": "Indiana Voice Journal : Fiction by Pat Tyrer: \"Mrs. Bash's Predictions\" Fiction by Pat Tyrer: \"Mrs. Bash's Predictions\" | Indiana Voice Journal",
        "raw_content": "Pat Tyrer is a Professor of English at West Texas A&M University in Canyon, Texas where she teaches Creative Writing, Technical Communication, and American Literature. She is a writer and lover of literature who hikes Palo Duro Canyon watching birds when the sun is up and star gazing when it\u2019s not. She writes and publishes poetry, essays, and short fiction.\nMrs. Bash\u2019s Predictions\nWhen I was seventeen I went to a psychic. She lived in a ramshackle house on the poorer side of town, within walking distance of the river where the homeless set up temporary houses out of cardboard. There were so many shopping carts parked along the river, it looked like the parking lot at Wal-Mart on Christmas Eve. Whenever some big event happened in town that brought in visitors, the police would remove the temporary housing, arrest all the homeless on vagrancy or public drunkenness charges, and put them in jail until the visitors left town. But that\u2019s a different story.\nMrs. Bash used a deck of Bicycle playing cards to read my fortune. The deck was old and soiled with most of the cards having bent corners. I suspected it hadn\u2019t been a complete deck for a number of years. Her house was tiny with a scratchy, red-wool couch on which Mrs. Bash sat, taking up most of the middle and weighing down the center with each end raised slightly higher.\n\u201cGrab a chair from the kitchen,\u201d she said on that first visit. \u201cAnd make yourself to home,\u201d she continued\u2014something I could not possibly do considering the dirt, the cats, and the odor of dirty dishes, but I got the chair. Like everything else in Mrs. Bash\u2019s house, the chair was already occupied by two cats who I displaced by tilting it until they jumped to the floor. I carried it to the living room and sat it in front of the coffee table and Mrs. Bash.\n\u201cDo I pay you now?\u201d I asked. Without answering, she took an old cigar box from under the coffee table and opened it, motioning for me to add my ten dollars to the slim stack of bills already in the box. Then with one sweep of her large pink hand, she swept away all the newspapers, ashtrays, and cats that had settled on the coffee table and began laying the cards out one by one as she read my fortune.\n\u201cJack of Spades,\u201d she said slapping the card down. \u201cYou meet a tall, handsome man with black hair and blue eyes. He love you more than you love him, but it end badly.\u201d\n\u201cBadly?\u201d I asked, and before I could continue, somewhat alarmed, she hushed me and continuing slapping down the cards.\n\u201cTen of Spades. This man,\u201d she continued. \u201cthis man you know already. Maybe from school or from,\u201d she hesitated. \u201cyou go to church?\u201d\n\u201cYes,\u201d I began, \u201cbut\u2026\u201d\n\u201cChurch,\u201d she declared. \u201cthis man from church.\u201d She slapped down another card. \u201cThe two of diamonds\u2014luck, maybe money, not much money. Don\u2019t get excited,\u201d she warned. \u201cFour of spades\u2014bad card; bring you no luck with that one. Queen of Hearts, you see,\u201d she exclaimed, \u201clove for you with church man.\u201d\n\u201cI\u2019ve never met anyone I liked at church,\u201d I protested.\n\u201cSix of diamonds; little luck, maybe,\u201d she continued ignoring my comments, \u201cten of clubs; now we get real lucky, maybe find true love. Eight of clubs, maybe trip. You like travel?\u201d she asked.\n\u201cWhy yes, I guess, but\u2026\u201d\n\u201cGood; I see trip to far place\u201d she said, slapping down the nine of diamonds, \u201cmaybe win trip\u2014diamonds good money cards,\u201d she said, turning over another diamond, the six. \u201cTrip for sure,\u201d she assured me. \u201cThat\u2019s all.\u201d\n\u201cWhat\u2019d mean, that\u2019s all? That\u2019s not the whole deck,\u201d I argued.\n\u201cTen dollars, ten cards,\u201d she said. \u201cTell you what. For you, first-time special. Cut the deck. Go on, cut, anywhere you like.\nI did as I was told and cut the deck revealing the ace of hearts.\n\u201cSee?\u201d Mrs. Bash fairly shreiked, \u201cyou lucky in love.\u201d\nAs I returned the chair to the kitchen, Mrs. Bash offered me a kitten. I declined.\nOn my second visit to Mrs. Bash, she had a houseful of new kittens, again. It was July and hot and the house was full of tiny baby kittens covered in fleas. I asked Mrs. Bash if those kittens shouldn\u2019t get dusted for fleas, but she said God took care of the helpless. I didn\u2019t think he was doing such a good job with Mrs. Bash, but I didn\u2019t say so. Even with the fleas, I paid Mrs. Bash ten dollars and got my reading. The night of the kittens, she told me that I would marry the boy I was in love with and have three children, but that I\u2019d have a \u201cgrand adventure\u201d before I married.\nIn addition to the tiny flea balls there was a terrible thunder storm that evening and her house was even more humid and foul than usual. Half way through my reading, we heard a lightening crack and the lights went out. Mrs. Bash didn\u2019t have a flashlight, so I lit matches one right after another so Mrs. Bash could finish telling me that I\u2019d go to college and be an English teacher one day. The smell of sulfur was overpowering, but at least it covered the smell of garbage and cat doings. Of course, Mrs. Bash was wrong about my going to college and falling in love. Instead, immediately after graduation I boarded a Greyhound bus to California to spend the rest of the summer with my Aunt Ruth in Pasadena. I was at least going to have a grand adventure. By October, I was two months pregnant and still living with Aunt Ruth. Wesley, my-to-die-for lifeguard, was long gone, and I was on my own.\nIt\u2019s been two years since I\u2019ve been home to visit. The baby is nearly eighteen months old and pretty cute. Coming back wasn\u2019t going to be easy, but my parents had long since gotten over the \u201cdisappointment\u201d and were ready to be grandparents. I had decided that the one stop I had to make was to visit Mrs. Bash.\nAs I stood in front of the wooden screen door at Mrs. Bash\u2019s, I was reminded of the many predictions she\u2019d made and how none of them came true. In fact, the predictions were so far off the mark that I might have made better use of them had I done exactly the opposite of what she\u2019d predicted. After a few more minutes I knocked again fearing perhaps that Mrs. Bash had told her last fortune since I\u2019d been away. When the cats began scratching on the screen I knew that Mrs. Bash couldn\u2019t be far behind. As a figure approached the door, I recognized her amid the flurry of kittens. Her housecoat was loose and her chubby face had morphed into hanging jowels and sunkened eyes.\n\u201cI was sleep,\u201d she said clearing her throat.\n\u201cSorry,\u201d I muttered. \u201cShould I come back later?\u201d\n\u201cReading?\u201d she asked.\nI nodded, holding out the ten dollar bill as my admission ticket.\nShe swung the door open and shoved the kittens aside with her foot. She was wearing slippers so worn that they might have been a wedding present from fifty years ago. She planted herself in the center of the couch and told me to sit. Understanding our routine, I got a kitchen chair and pulled it up in front of the coffee table.\nI noticed that the deck had fewer cards than ever, but since I\u2019d already decided not to take any of Mrs. Bash\u2019s advice, I remained quiet. In fact, my desire to let her know that her predictions were just a con job was slowly fading. Mrs. Bash was clearly not well, nor any better off than she\u2019d been on my last visit, and I was beginning to feel sorry I\u2019d come.\n\u201cQueen of Hearts,\u201d she said, slapping down the first card. \u201cYou married?\u201d\n\u201cYou gonna be,\u201d she said and laid another card on the table. \u201cKing of Hearts,\u201d she said, \u201cyou marry big man, blonde, good looking, like you.\u201d\n\u201cThank you,\u201d I said, surprised by the compliment.\n\u201cHe white like you,\u201d she said.\n\u201cOh,\u201d I sputtered, \u201cI thought you meant,\u201d\n\u201cFive Diamonds\u201d she continued, placing the next card; \u201cyou not rich. She slapped down the Eight of Diamonds; maybe not too bad money,\u201d she said. \u201cJack Clubs, you successful; make difference,\u201d she said.\n\u201cWill I have any children?\u201d I interrupted.\n\u201cWe see,\u201d she said, laying down the 10 of Clubs; \u201cyes, many children, but,\u201d and she paused to lay down another card, \u201cQueen Diamonds, not till you older.\u201d\nI smiled to myself remembering my daughter asleep at her grandparents. Mrs. Bash had only reenforced what I already knew\u2014Mrs. Bash was no fortune teller. She worked through the rest of my ten cards, and I placed my ten dollar bill in the old cigar box. As I rose to leave, Mrs. Bash got up from the couch with some difficulty and shuffled back to the bedroom.\n\u201cI rest,\u201d she said.\nI watched her amble across the small living room, weaving a bit and clearly favoring her left hip. I waited until I heard the creek of the bed as she lay down to rest. I hadn\u2019t told her that all her predictions weren\u2019t even good guesses. Somehow the desire to do so had faded just after she\u2019d opened the screen door. I looked around the living room noticing the cats had returned to rest on the coffee table. The kittens were snuggled together at the end of the couch. I didn\u2019t count them, but from the looks of them, the numbers were at least in the teens. Most were yawling and even from my vantage point a few feet away I could see them scratching at fleas. I spied a cardboard box at the far end of the sofa filled with what appeared to be clean laundry, towels and such. I picked up the box, dumped the laundry on the couch and proceeded to pick up kitten after kitten, dropping them into the empty box. With my box filled with kittens, I left Mrs. Bash\u2019s. I looked up the address of the nearest shelter on my phone as I walked to the car. Putting the box on the back seat, I suddenly smiled to myself realizing that at least one of Mrs. Bash\u2019s predictions were going to come true\u2014I was going to make a difference.\n~Pat Tyrer",

The convention was a huge success in bringing together our community and in furthering the primary purpose of Alcoholics Anonymous.\nThe next convention will be held at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Austin, Texas from November 11 through the 13th. There will be speakers, workshops, panel discussions, books, meetings, food, fun, and fellowship. You won\u2019t want to miss this convention.

You can learn more by going to our website at www.waaftiaac.org There are two downloadable flyers attached to that site which we would love you to distribute to meetings in your area so as many people as possible know about this important event.\nWAAFTIAAC\nPosted by Joe S at 5:43 PM No comments: Links to this post\nThe first biannual WAAFT Convention in Santa Monica, November 6-8, 2014\nHaving arrived at different times, nevertheless, all four representatives of We Agnostics, Indianapolis were able to have a dinner on the beach together the night before the convention, to hang out and reconnoiter. We talked about what we thought might happen over the weekend and what our part should be, and frankly, besides the meeting we were leading, none of us knew what to expect.\nI was not disappointed one bit and had a great time, mostly because I met and talked to people from all over the country (and world!) about many things and shared our group\u2019s experience, strength and hope. Our Indianapolis group is semi-famous due to the report about us on the AAagnostica web site which describes our experience as the first group to actually be de-listed by crotchety old intergroup members, and the only group to be de-listed twice! People actually sought us out and came to our meeting to find out more.\nOur meeting was one high point for me, but there were many. I particularly enjoyed meeting two authors I have met online, Joe C. from Toronto and Vince Hawkins (pseudonym) who is a Brit living in Spain. I had several conversations with them both and enjoyed the connection. I told Joe C. several times how much our members enjoy his Beyond Belief book and what an important contribution it is. Vince has written a book that I purchased and will bring to one of our meetings to share.\nIf you want to see the complete schedule for the convention, go to the convention web site. I will give you some feedback about the events I attended; although I missed many valuable ones, I\u2019m sure.\nThe first day, Thursday, was a short day and featured eight speakers, with a break for lunch. There were also plenty of announcements by two of the convention coordinators, Dorothy and Pam. They were obviously thrilled that their fantasy had been realized. Two very friendly, high energy people who did a great job!\nJoe C. from Toronto was the first speaker and although he was brief (trying to keep us on schedule), his comments were astute. He claimed to be a reader, not a writer and a listener not a speaker, but he\u2019s obviously comfortable doing all those things. He impressed upon us that he thinks the current problems in AA are more about language than message and he quoted Caesar Chavez who said \u201cYou can\u2019t stop social change.\u201d He\u2019s optimistic about the future of AA and quipped that once \u201cour\u201d baby-boomer generation dies off, many attitudes will change and AA will open up.\nI enjoyed all the speakers; they represented many ages and backgrounds. Most gave a brief lead and brought their stories into the present as they explained how they got involved in WAAFT meetings and groups and the importance of that \u201cmovement\u201d in AA. The keynote, Marya Hornbacher\u2019s speech was quite different from the rest, more rehearsed and delivered rapid fire. She used segments of her books and elaborated as well. Sometimes she was very funny, sometimes serious and sad. It was great hearing her; she\u2019s quite a character. I will check out her books soon.\nOn Friday I focused on four different events: the Beyond Belief Toronto meeting, chaired by Joe C., the workshop Are WAAFTs Loving and Tolerant?, the Listing Issues Panel, on which our Joe S. served, and our own We Agnostics meeting.\nJoe C. basically set up his Beyond Belief meeting to solicit stories, around 25 people from all over the world. Turns out he\u2019s very popular and well known in our movement! We went around the circle and told our stories in relation to needing and finding WAAFT meetings and groups. What a bunch of characters we are!\nThe Are WAAFTs Loving and Tolerant? workshop was well attended and dealt with how individuals respond to criticism by other AA members, specifically by \u201cbelievers,\u201d and how it makes them feel. Do they clam up and storm out, carry resentments, get aggressive and get even, or try to reason with those who confront them? And how do they feel if they stand up for themselves? The consensus seemed to be that throughout the AA world, WAAFTs need to start speaking out in traditional meetings so that newcomers know that they can recover without god. The idea is to present our experience, strength and hope in a manner that does not duplicate those closed minded critics we have all encountered at some point. I said I was a bit more militant and didn\u2019t mind telling the critics to fuck off! Ha! I was only half joking. But I did get a lot out of the meeting and met some lovely atheists!\nThe Listing Issues panel featured seven speakers who each told his/her story about starting or trying to start WAAFT meetings in their areas. A common thread in the stories of those who have had trouble being recognized as legitimate and \u201clisted\u201d is the presence of old timer, grumpy men in the local intergroups. More than anything, those people stand in the way. It seems only the Quad A groups in Chicago have met with no resistance. Our Joe S. presented admirably and explained what happened and what we had to do to finally be listed and applauded a number of people outside Indy We Agnostics who helped cajole Indianapolis Intergroup. We certainly have a good story to tell!\nThe three common issues that have caused controversy between WAAFT groups and local their intergroups are: 1) certain passive aggressive (or downright aggressive!) personalities, 2) the use of non-AA approved literature in meetings, and 3) being affiliated with \u201coutside AA\u201d groups of any kind. This last point was new to me, but Deirdre from NYC explained that her group was not accepted by intergroup initially because they were listed on a non-AA web site (their international site). I guess that was also part of our problem. Basically, when grumpy men don\u2019t want to list a group, they create reasons not to. Silly old men!\nThe four of us representing We Agnostics Indianapolis all attended OUR meeting (obviously) and met eight others who sought us out and wanted to share their stories and to find out more about us and our meeting. This was very sweet and we had an excellent meeting!\nEveryone had unique, interesting backgrounds and histories. Although we followed our usual meeting format, the sharing mostly consisted of mini-leads and questions about how to start and expand new non-theist meetings. A man from Traverse City, Michigan gave us a good example of how backward-thinking intergroup members can passively/aggressively derail new WAAFT meetings. For months his meeting was listed as a meeting for gays and Native Americans and when he discovered it he couldn\u2019t get them to change it! He\u2019s still trying!\nPeople at our meeting from Las Vegas, a small city in Arizona, and somewhere in North Carolina all needed to find friends in recovery and I told them that they didn\u2019t have to call it AA initially, if their priority was meeting like-minded people who want recovery. Joe reminded them that even before AA intergroup gets involved, a meeting web site or blog can be set up so newcomers searching for a WAAFT meeting can find it through Google.\nSaturday, the last day of the convention, I slept in a bit and started with the Relapse Panel at 1:30, after an interesting Subway-catered lunch shared with several Californians, including one of the volunteers who had spoken harshly to me when I first arrived because I was taking pictures of the facility. She didn\u2019t want me to take pictures of any anonymous person, evidently. I guess she forgave me and we had a good lunch time conversation. Later, I saw many folks taking pictures of people!\nThe first event I attended was the Relapse Panel. Lots of people were there! J There were four speakers and one of them stood out for his unconventional ideas. Steve P. from L.A. spoke first and he told his story about relapsing after nine years sober. He basically got tired of all the dogma in AA, went out again, and had come back to the WAAFT meetings just four months ago. He said a number of things you don\u2019t normally hear in AA and the ones that struck me most were, \u201cAlcoholism is not a disease, it\u2019s a choice.\u201d He also thinks that traditional AA overdramatizes relapse and exaggerates the progressive nature of alcoholism. He was obviously glad to be sober again, however. He closed by saying what is important to him is having a sober social support group without the dogma.\nThe other three speakers all had interesting stories and all had relapsed after many sober years. Their stories were much more typical and similar to ones we have all heard in meetings. Anxiety, depression, suicidal thoughts and being a dry drunk were the common themes, as well as isolation and getting away from meetings and the fellowship.\nNext I attended the Canadian Panel. Mostly I went to hear Joe C. because he is one of the movers and shakers in the WAAFT movement. The speakers were Joe C. and one other man (whose name I forget) and they discussed AA\u2019s problems and the way forward. One of Joe\u2019s main points was that nowhere in the AA literature is there a \u201cprogram\u201d specified or defined (the steps are merely suggestions, for example), but there is plenty of information about the importance of \u201cthe fellowship.\u201d And yet \u201cthe program\u201d and the fellowship have become intertwined and interdependent over the years and because of this AA has become rigid. He noted that the \u201cthe program\u201d was never intended to be sacred. Therefore he believes that every individual should select whatever program works, and that program can include traditional step work, therapy, exercise, new hobbies, etc. But he believes that the fellowship, one alcoholic helping another, is essential for long-term sobriety.\nThere was also a discussion about the necessity for non-believers to learn to translate the language of the Big Book, because the real problem is semantics: intent verses wording. Joe believes that the intention of the AA authors has always been our primary purpose \u2013 to help alcoholics stay sober. He did suggest, however, that people avail themselves of all the new literature about recovery including the AA Grapevine publications.\nThe 3:30 panel was entitled Web Servants and featured four speakers, all of whom have been instrumental in getting news and information out to WAAFTs all over the world. Deirdre S. spoke about her web site www.agnosticaanyc.org, the site that lists world-wide AA WAAFT meetings. Her AA group started that web site soon after 9/11 and they were written up in the New York Times as a result. After trying out several different formats, they decided to just keep it simple and only list meetings. She had the figures for the number of alternative AA meetings and was excited by their progress: 36 in 1996, 181 in 2014!\nRoger and Joe C. shared their experience starting and running Rebellion Dogs publishing http://rebelliondogspublishing.com/home and http://aaagnostica.org Joe made the comment that social media works only when it promotes community and fails when it doesn\u2019t. As an example, he then asked who still uses My Space and noted that Face Book has lost many of its younger members recently because all their parents use it! He mentioned his pod casts and music show as well and suggested the \u201cdo it yourself\u201d approach for getting information onto the internet (and touted its effectiveness).\nRoger recounted AAAgnostica\u2019s history, how rapidly it has grown and how much information people are submitting. He has definitely contributed greatly to helping non-theists seeking recovery!\nJohn S. from Kansas City described how he developed his web site to get the word out about his meeting and how difficult it has been to find non-believers in recovery in Kansas City. I like his design!\nhttp://weagnosticsaa.com/\nJoseph O. developed the WAAFT Convention web site as one of his many IT projects and praised the convention\u2019s directors for giving him the opportunity. He said the internet can provide great ways to communicate and each project he develops is different, depending on his audience.\nThe final event of the convention was our Keynote Speaker, Reverend Ward Ewing, an episcopal priest who has served as a \u201clay\u201d member of the advisory committee for the General Service Office for many years. He was a lovely guy, very down to earth (originally from Virginia?), who obviously has a deep understanding of AA and the issues it faces. Choosing him to speak was indicative of the convention theme: Many Paths to Recovery, which emphasize inclusiveness.\nI thought his speech dwelt a little too much on explaining the obvious, as he spent significant time paraphrasing and elucidating the significance of the steps. That was unnecessary for this audience of mostly long-time sober people, and just seemed to be filling up the allotted time. He obviously is devoted to AA and to changing and expanding its role so it does not drive people away and he seemed to agree with many of the WAAFT members present. Fini!\nPosted by Patrick Nolan at 3:10 PM No comments: Links to this post\nThe Passing of Chris W.\nIt is with much sadness that I inform you that our friend Chris W. - one third of the founding membership of \"We Agnostics\" - has passed away.\nChris died in the early hours of February 12, 2014, after a brief battle with aggressive liver cancer.\nChris was a fixture in local AA. His desire to make a place for like-minded alcoholics was instrumental in having this little group come into existence. Were it not for Chris pulling me aside after a typical AA meeting in which I'd spoken about being an atheist, this group might not exist.\nChris loved life, was honest about his struggles, served with an open heart, and stood with an open hand willing to help a newcomer.\nI miss him already. My world is a little more lonely tonight.\nFare thee well, Chris.\nPosted by Joe S at 7:17 PM 1 comment: Links to this post\nVisited the group lately?\nIt may surprise you to find that our little meeting is growing. By leaps and bounds, actually.\nWe regularly have 30+ people in attendance. We have a new GSR, an Intergroup rep, lots of newcomers sticking around, and no requirement that anyone believe in anything that conflicts with their personal worldview.\nStop in. It is, after all, the best AA meeting on the planet.\nLabels: A.A., aa, Agnostic, Alcoholics Anonymous, Atheist, Indianapolis\nWe Agnostics Indianapolis A.A. - Year 2\nSometime last month - we don't remember exactly when - the We Agnostics group of A.A. in Indianapolis celebrated its second year of being in existence. My how time flies when you're having fun!\nOur first meetings had 1 or 2 or 3 people in attendance. It was difficult to imagine how to run an hour-long meeting with 2 people, but somehow we managed to make it happen. Lots of conversation and cross-talking, as one might imagine. It seemed to go on for a few months that way.\nThen, for no apparent reason, we suddenly had 7-10 people showing up on a regular basis. That number maintained for a few months, and by the end of our first year it was not uncommon to have 15 people in the meeting.\nIt was just about this time that we had our first run-in with the local Intergroup Office. (Feel free to dig through older posts for detail on that fiasco.) By this time, we were pushing 20 people in attendance regularly.\nTowards the end of some of the \"controversy\" surrounding our meeting, many folks stopped in to the meeting just to see what all the fuss was about. Funny thing happened...some of those folks have stuck around. Many of them aren't even atheists or agnostics, but they appreciate the atmosphere of honest sharing and support found in the meeting.\nIt's now not uncommon for there to be 30 people in attendance. I believe that the \"We Agnostics\" group of A.A. in Indianapolis is the best meeting in the world. I hope you feel the same about your home group.\nWe Agnostics - An A.A. Group\nThis group of A.A. attempts to maintain a tradition of free expression. We conduct a meeting where alcoholics may feel free to express any doubts or disbeliefs they may have, and to share their own personal form of spiritual experience, their search for it, or their rejection of it. We do not endorse or oppose any form of religion or atheism. Our only wish is to assure suffering alcoholics that they can find sobriety in A.A. without having to accept anyone else's beliefs or having to deny their own.\nPosted by Joe S at 7:15 AM No comments: Links to this post\nBill W. on Tradition 3\nTradition 3: The only requirement for membership is a desire to stop drinking.\n\"Yet Point Three in our AA Tradition looks like a wide open invitation to anarchy. Seemingly, it contradicts point one. It reads, \"Our membership ought to include all who suffer from alcoholism. Hence, we may refuse none who wish to recover. Nor ought AA membership ever depend on money or conformity.\nAny two or three alcoholics gathered together for sobriety may call themselves an AA group.\" This clearly implies that an alcoholic is a member if he says so; that we can't deny him membership; that we can't demand from him a cent; that we can't force our beliefs or practices on him; that he may flout everything we stand for and still be a member.\nIn fact, our Tradition carries the principle of independence to such a fantastic length that, so long as there is the slightest interest in sobriety, the most unmoral, the most antisocial, the most critical alcoholic may gather about him a few kindred spirits and announce to us that a new Alcoholics Anonymous group has been formed. Anti-God, anti-medicine, anti-our recovery program, even anti-each other \u2013 these rampant individuals are still an AA group if they think so!\"\n(Language of the Heart, pp 32-33. \u00a9 The AA Grapevine, Inc.)\nPosted by Joe S at 12:45 PM No comments: Links to this post\nCan an Atheist be in A.A.?\n\"A.A. is NOT a religious organization. All members are free to decide on their own personal ideas about the meaning of life.\u201d\nfrom \"A Brief Guide to Alcoholics Anonymous: What is A.A.?\"\nAlcoholics Anonymous was born in the first part of 20th Century in the middle of white, Protestant America. That's not a judgement. It's just an historical fact. Women had only been given the vote 15 years prior. Jews were being overtly discriminated against. Juvenile diabetes still killed nearly everyone who was stricken by it within months. The polio vaccine was still 17 years away. Indoor plumbing was a distant dream for many Americans, and daily baths were out of the question for the vast majority of us.\nIt was in that time in history that A.A. was created.\nIn 1934, Bill Wilson was hospitalized, suffering once again from acute alcohol withdrawal (which is often accompanied by hallucinations and delusions). He was also being treated with belladonna (a known hallucinogen in its own right). It was under these conditions that Bill had his now-legendary \"white light\" experience.\nShould we be surprised? DT's and a fat dose of belladonna and Bill was - as we used to say - tripping his brains out.\nCombining Bill's own experiences with the influence of the very evangelical \"Oxford Group,\" A.A. was born as a nearly all male, nearly all white, nearly all Protestant program. Many of its early precepts came from the Oxford Group and were adapted to meet the needs of the new group which was in its infancy. Bill W. and Dr. Bob - A.A.'s founders - were both members of the Oxford Group until the 1940's.\nIt's interesting to note that one of the first A.A. members was Jim B. He was a self-described \"militant agnostic.\" After an early relapse, he remained sober and outlived the two founders of A.A. Jim started meetings in Philadelphia, Baltimore and San Diego. His story was even included in the First Edition of the book, \"Alcoholics Anonymous,\" the book generally referred to by A.A. members as \"The Big Book.\" Some of his story can be found here: Sober for Thirty Years.\nA few things have changed since those early days. Our understanding of medicine and science and public health and sanitation has grown exponentially. One might expect that even A.A. itself would have matured and grown and advanced during that time, and in many important ways that it has. It has certainly expanded its thinking with respect to the participation of women, racial minorities, and those of non-Christian faith. A.A. now has meetings which exclusively serve the LGBT community, women-only meetings, men-only meetings, meditation-based meetings, and meetings for young people. It's time that A.A. expand itself once again to more actively include and support those members who might not have a belief in things which exist outside of nature, or for whom \"god\" is not a reality.\n\"What about the steps that mention God?\" is a question that's often asked.\nIn numerous instances in the Big Book and in A.A.'s own conference-approved literature, A.A. makes it abundantly clear that members are free to use whatever notion of \"higher power\" works for them. We are now seeing some of those members gather together in formal A.A. meetings aimed to support those with a non-supernatural understanding of \"Higher Power.\" They have found that being in a meeting where they can openly discuss their doubts to be tremendously refreshing. Those members share their experiences of using a \"Group Of Drunks\" as a higher power, or how the \"God of their understanding\" is more like Nature than Neptune. Members are finding the love and support they require to get and stay sober can be found in the rooms of A.A., more often now than ever in a meeting for Agnostics and Athiests.\nThere is good news. A.A. now has meetings where atheists, agnostics, humanists, free-thinkers and rationalists can find their own key to sobriety. They are few and far between, but they are marching forward and carrying the message that there is hope for recovery for ANYONE who is seeking it. Here's a link to several meetings around the world.\nIf you are an atheist or an agnostic, there is room for you in A.A. Absolutely. Without question. And unapologetically.\n\u201cIt would be unrealistic to assume that all A.A. members are spiritually inspired. Many, too, are not committed to a formal body of religious doctrine. But innumerable A.A. members\u2014including those of no orthodoxy\u2014say they have experiences the transforming power of sharing, caring, trust and love.\"\nAnd, \u201c...the A.A. program of recovery is based on certain spiritual values. Individual members are free to interpret these values as they think best, or not to think about them at all.\u201d\nFrom \u201cMembers of the Clergy Ask About Alcoholics Anonymous\"\nIntergroup Intelligentsia - The Thought Police\nMany local AA members have heard by now that the \"We Agnostics\" group has been forever excommunicated from the Indianapolis Intergroup meeting directory. Some have heard of this author's rather dramatic exit from the charade that they chose to call a \"Service Committee Meeting.\" While I'm not particularly proud of my behavior, I can assure you that the entire group in attendance knows where I stand on this issue, and the chairperson of the \"committee\" specifically knows my feelings.\nIt became abundantly clear very early in the evening that the committee had already made up its mind about what the outcome would be. It was not interested in Traditions or Concepts or Unity or Service. It was a war of opinions and anecdotes and popularity. One attendee of that \"Service Committee\" meeting even went so far as to suggest that the \"We Agnostics\" meeting was godless and therefore couldn't have a group conscience...violating the Second Tradition. Yet another attendee compared me to a mass murderer because I was passionately defending my right to be there.\nThe Indianapolis Intergroup Service Committee Meeting of June 9, 2011 was a Kangaroo Court if there ever were one.\nI want to make it very clear that the \"We Agnostics\" group uses a simple meeting format. There is no reading of any \"altered steps or traditions\" as a part of the format. Many members do share their experiences, which often does mean that those members may interpret the steps when they share to help illustrate their own understanding of \"power greater than ourselves\" or \"god as we understood him.\" I personally carry a version of the steps that have been \"translated\" into terminology that I can relate to, and will give that version to anyone who asks.\nAt the \"We Agnostics\" group, we strive to keep an open door where newcomers are welcomed no matter how they self-describe or identify. Attendees are welcomed to share whatever they wish, provided that they follow the Group Conscience and not suggest to other members that belief in a supernatural higher power is an absolute necessity to achieve sobriety. Many folks have attended and spoken about their own belief in a supernatural god. They are not ushered out of the rooom or shamed into trying to believe or speak otherwise. Any person who attends may share whatever they wish. Our group simply asks that when attendees share that they refrain from suggesting that such a belief is a requirement for other people. I file that under \"sharing experience, not giving advice.\"\nI'm left with a few unanswered questions...though I really do think that the answers are obvious.\nDoes Intergroup monitor and sanction other groups when members of those groups individually offend the opinions of the Intergroup Service Committee? (I believe that the answer is NO 99.9% of the time.)\nWhere will the line of discrimination stop? Now that they believe that they can determine what individual members can and cannot think and believe, which unfavorable belief system is next? Will Intergroup sanction other groups because they pass out non-approved literature in their meetings? Will they sanction individual members who - as a part of their lead - reference specific non-christian deities or distribute non-approved charts and graphs? Will groups that exclude individuals based on their gender or sexual orientation be excommunicated because they limit attendance based on a certain \"affiliation?\"\n\"We Agnostics\" is an AA group. The Intergroup Service Committee and its members might believe that they can tell a group that it's not a group, but Intergroup can only remove the meeting from its own directory of meetings. It does not have the power to tell any AA group whether or not that meeting is a group. The General Service Office of Alcoholics Anonymous recognizes the meeting \"We Agnostics,\" and it is a meeting because - according to the Traditions - it says it is.\nHere's the great news. The group is thriving and will continue to do so. We routinely have 20+ people in attendance, collect 7th Tradition money, pay rent, and send contributions to the GSO. Several of our members have in excess of 20 years of continuous sobriety, and an increasingly enthusiastic group of newcomers is choosing to make the \"We Agnostics\" group a part of their ongoing sobriety. I hope you'll attend some time.\nPosted by Joe S at 7:20 AM 5 comments: Links to this post\nWhat Defines \"Recovery?\"\nIn a brief exchange on Facebook today, one man (a self-described \"follower of Jesus\") commented on my sobriety by saying:\n\"Congrats to you on \"sobriety\",,certainly your life has benefited from not using; however, what I seek is RECOVERY..living an empowered , and abundant life..that has happened to me when I surrendered, and let my Higher Power guide me. See Joe, both of our ways work, although with different outcomes....good luck to you!\"\nThe presumption that his \"recovery\" is somehow better than my \"sobriety\" because he has a \"relationship with Jesus\" is not only arrogant, it's dangerous and misguided.\nAt the We Agnostics group, we are living proof that belief in a supernatural higher power is NOT a requirement to get sober, to stay sober, to find recovery and to have a wonderful life.\nIf you struggle with the concept of a higher power and aren't comfortable with the idea that it must be something magical, stop by our meeting. There you'll find people choosing to get and stay sober.\nPosted by Joe S at 1:56 PM 2 comments: Links to this post\nCarvel Club, upstairs big room\n4627 Carvel Avenue\nfor more information, email indygreenbuilder@gmail.com\nSundays, 1:30-2:30\nCarvel Club, upstairs in the big room\n(first Sunday of the month, it meets downstairs.)\nfor more info, email indygreenbuilder@gmail.com\nSHE AGNOSTICS, WOMEN ONLY\nIndiana Funeral Care\n8151 Allisonville Rd., Indianapolis, IN 46250\nfor more info, email vastliberalconspiracy@gmail.com\nOther Atheist & Agnostic Recovery Resources\nWorldwide Agnostic A.A.

And just try to get to a space where I can go out there and just enjoy myself and compete,\u201d Kyrgios told Nine in an exclusive interview.\n\u201cI hope it leads me into getting to a happier place than where I was last year.\n\u201cObviously, with the tennis side of things I\u2019m getting help with but it was more just the general life.\n\u201cThe simpler things, like getting up and being happy, and I think where I am at the moment is night and day to where I was four months ago when I was really struggling on the tour.\u201d\nHis greatest critic but strongest supporter, John McEnroe worked closely with the Australian talent during 2018\u2019s Laver Cup, and Todd Woodbridge believes the time the pair spent together during the tournament cultivated a unique bond between the two stars that has benefited the 23-year-old.\n\u201cHe absolutely loves him,\u201d Woodbridge said of McEnroe\u2019s sentiments toward Kyrgios.\n\u201cMcEnroe has that extra in into nick\u2019s head that a lot of us don\u2019t.\n\u201cHe is fond of him.

Not a huge place, but, in nice weather, they roll up the window doors and let the fresh air in. The bar in the center is decorated with custom taps for a ton of different beers.\nDo I even NEED to talk about the awesomeness that is their beer selection? Probably not, but it's worth mentioning. Their beer list is sorted by type, making for a semi-easy selection, if you know what you're in the mood for. There were a few breweries listed on their I'd not seen before, like Neustadt and Radical Road. Good brews in a can AND on tap.\nThe burgers are fabulous. I had the Philly Cheesesteak Burger and I'm hooked. The sauteed onions and peppers are tasty, but it's the smokey cheese sauce that does it for me; it's hard for me NOT to order it. I tried their Fried Chicken Sandwich, which was pretty good. Locally sourced chicken, buttermilk pilsner batter......but, I was thinking about the burger the whole time, like I was cheating on it. I can only hope it will take me back! Let's move to sides....the fries are good, adequate. I highly recommend the chips and salsa. No, I will not let you try one of mine. I told you they were good, I told you to order them; you must live with your choice. The chips and salsa are made in house.\nThe servers are all charming, adorable and good at their jobs.

        "raw_content": "\u2018Internalized Racism'\nBy R. L. Nave Wednesday, April 4, 2012 4:59 p.m. CDT\nR. L. Nave\nNolan Ryan Henderson III's younger brother, Damien, remembers him at JSU.\nDamien Henderson scrawled the words \"Rest in Paradise\" on a vent outside his brother Ryan's dorm room at Jackson State University last week before leading approximately 200 college students dressed in red in a peaceful march to the Palisades Apartments, where Ryan was shot and killed March 25.\nAt the time, the Henderson family blamed Ryan's death on JSU football players who the 19-year-old freshman had, according to witnesses, taken a beating from in the hours before his death.\n\"This is nothing new. This has been going on for a long time,\" Ryan's father, Nolan Henderson, said on the day of the march. Nolan Henderson said that when he attended JSU in the early 1980s, university officials went out of their way to protect athletes.\nBut three days later, a messier picture emerged: Yes, Ryan Henderson had fought some football players but the bullet that killed him came from the gun of Jarrod Emerson, Henderson's cousin, according to a statement from City Hall officials.\nJackson police officials said Emerson, who is charged with murder in Henderson's death, turned himself in March 28 and helped investigators recover two handguns he possessed.\nThe night he died, Henderson had called Emerson after being assaulted at a party at the Palisades Apartments, near the campus of Jackson State University. Emerson then reportedly met up with Henderson at U.S. 80 and Lynch Street before heading back to the Palisades Apartments to confront the people Henderson said beat him up.\nEmerson, armed with 9 mm and .40-caliber handguns, confronted \"several individuals\" at the complex, pulled his weapon and fired several shots with the .40-caliber gun, Assistant Police Chief Lee Vance told reporters March 29. The crowd scattered and Henderson was shot in the face.\nVance also confirmed long-swirling rumors that Henderson had been involved in an altercation with \"some of the football players\" from JSU. The cookout and pool party that took place at the apartment complex was reportedly for graduating members of the football team.\nPolice sought murder charges against Emerson after consulting with Hinds County District Attorney Robert Shuler Smith's office, Vance said. Despite Henderson apparently having scars on his knuckles and a wound on his head, Vance said that because Henderson left the party under his own power, police couldn't make an arrest for his alleged assault unless an eyewitness comes forward.\nD'Andra Orey, a political science professor at JSU, who focuses on issues of race and politics, said the incidents surrounding Henderson's death represent what he calls internalized racism (formerly known in sociology circles as self-hatred).\nBlack males, he said, often internalize racist stereotypes that they are supposed to be violent. JSU should take the lead in erasing internalized racism, which often manifests in the form of black-on-black violence, by introducing more positive images of African Americans in the curriculum, Orey said.\n\"We have not addressed black-on-back crime with same energy that we have nonblack-on-black crime\u2014and that's problematic,\" he said.\nLegacy Comments\nInteresting... If there is a sub-conscience motivation here, what does it say that the shooter ended up shooting the instigator of the shooting? In the face no less. Maybe he was sub-consciously defending all of the innocent party goers that they had consciously put in mortal danger. Hmmmm...\nWMartin2012-04-09T13:21:01-06:00\n[quote]\"We have not addressed black-on-back crime with same energy that we have non black-on-black crime\u2014and that's problematic,\" he said. [/quote] Quoted for TRUTH.\nJeff Lucas2012-04-09T15:32:44-06:00\n@ Jeff Lucas, How do you suggest we address internalized racism?\nRenaldo Bryant2012-04-10T08:19:57-06:00\nHere are some links about \"internalized racism\" that might help provoke thought and discussion. Not endorsing any of them, just linking them (smile): http://racerelations.about.com/od/understandingrac1/a/internalizedracism.htm http://www.rc.org/publications/journals/black_reemergence/br2/br2_5_sl.html http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oppression www.thewtc.org/Internalized_Racism.pdf http://theangryblackwoman.com/2009/07/28/internalized-racism-the-silent-face-of-bigotry/ http://academic.udayton.edu/race/01race/latinos01.htm\nDonnaLadd2012-04-10T09:16:35-06:00\nRenaldo, the collective low self-esteem and self-hatred of AAs is at such a crisis level that it defies my ability to formulate a magic bullet or curative solution. I\u2019m certain that you and ladd are much more versed in the subject and will articulate a response that will be thoughtful, insightful, and backed by the latest research and reflections of sociologists and cultural philosophers who have studied the issue. I will add that I'm interested in seeing the day when \"we\" don't think that our problems with each other can be solved with a 9 mm , when \"we\" don't look at Caucasians as the epitome of beauty and intelligence at the expense of our own beautiful brothers and sisters, and that all of our children embrace education as a tool and a gift that could solve many of our problems instead of belittling young people who love learning and are high achievers. However it requires such a dramatic paradigm shift on the part of both blacks and whites (and others) in terms of how we view ourselves and each other that I don't expect to see it in my lifetime.\nI'm way over my head, Jeff, but I would certainly volunteer to help any way I can, and I welcome suggestions. My chosen way has been to feature more positive images and stories about people of color than negative (which is also more accurate) because I believe the power of the media is very strong. And our paper goes to every neighborhood so those images are all over the city. Whites and people of color need to see these images and believe them. Meantime, I'm focused on the psychology of \"whiteness,\" and privilege, which brings its own burden of not-so-fresh hell to bear. That is, we've all got work to do. Personally, I want us to do it together in whatever ways we can.\n\"If you can't walk in my shoes to feel what I feel, at least look at where I'm standing\" The best and most comprehensive explanation (based on scientific based social science research)of what this article calls internalized racism\" is the work of Dr. Joy Leary and her book \"Post Traumatic Slave Syndrone\". I just got the book but the link below provides a two (2) hour presentation of the concepts. In my opinion it will be the most enjoyable, entertaining and enlightening 2 hours you will ever spend on the topic of race. \"The people came out of slavery, now we have to get the slavery out of the people.\"\nFrankMickens2012-04-11T11:35:13-06:00\nFamily Rallies: \u2018Ryan's Life Mattered'\nAfter Fiery Debate, Voter ID Passes\nJackson Rallies for Trayvon Martin\nSenate Sets Sights on Gun Laws\n[Kamikaze] \u2018I'm No Token'\nWLBT: Quentin Whitwell Stepping Down\n'Religious Freedom,' School Voucher, Drug Testing Bills Pass on Big Deadline Day\nEntry Plan Highlights\nThe JFP Interview with JPS Superintendent Dr. Cedrick Gray\n12 Dead in Colo.

        "title": "Trump to Deny Funds to Clinics that Refer for Abortion | Jackson Free Press | Jackson, MS",
        "raw_content": "The Trump administration will resurrect a Reagan-era rule banning federally funded family planning clinics from referring women for abortions, or sharing space with abortion providers. Photo by Flickr/Gage Skidmore\nBy The Associated Press Friday, May 18, 2018 9:48 a.m. CDT\nWASHINGTON (AP) \u2014 The Trump administration will resurrect a Reagan-era rule banning federally funded family planning clinics from referring women for abortions, or sharing space with abortion providers.\nThe Department of Health and Human Services will announce its proposal Friday, a senior White House official said Thursday, speaking on condition of anonymity ahead of the release.\nThe policy has been derided as a \"gag rule\" by abortion rights supporters and medical groups, and it is likely to trigger lawsuits that could keep it from taking effect. However, it's guaranteed to galvanize activists on both sides of the abortion debate going into the congressional midterm elections.\nThe announcement comes as President Donald Trump is scheduled to speak at the Susan B. Anthony List's \"campaign for life\" gala on Tuesday night. The group works to elect candidates who want to reduce and ultimately end abortion. It says it spent more than $18 million in the 2016 election cycle to defeat Hillary Rodham Clinton and promote a \"pro-life Senate.\"\nThe Reagan-era rule barred family planning clinics from discussing abortion with women. It never went into effect as written, although the Supreme Court ruled that it was an appropriate use of executive power. The policy was rescinded under President Bill Clinton, and a new rule went into effect that required \"nondirective\" counseling to include a full range of options for women.\nAccording to a Trump administration summary, the new proposal will roll back the Clinton requirement that abortion should be discussed as an option along with prenatal care and adoption.\nKnown as Title X, the nation's family-planning program serves about 4 million women a year through clinics, at a cost to taxpayers of about $260 million.\nAbortion is a legal medical procedure, but by law federal family planning funds cannot be used to pay for abortion procedures.\nAbortion opponents say a taxpayer-funded family planning program should have no connection to abortion. Doctors' groups and abortion rights supporters say a ban on counseling women trespasses on the doctor-patient relationship.\n\"This is an attempt to take away women's basic rights, period,\" said Dawn Laguens, a senior Planned Parenthood executive. She hinted at possible legal action to try to block the Trump administration move, saying, \"we will not stand by while our basic health care and rights are stripped away.\"\n\"I cannot imagine a scenario in which public health groups would allow this effort to go unchallenged,\" said Jessica Marcella of the National Family Planning & Reproductive Health Association, which represents family planning clinics.\nMarcella said requiring clinics to be physically separate from facilities in which abortion is provided is impractical, and would disrupt services for women across the country.\nBut abortion opponents said Trump is merely reaffirming the core mission of the family planning program.\n\"The new regulations will draw a bright line between abortion centers and family planning programs, just as...federal law requires and the Supreme Court has upheld,\" said Tony Perkins, president of the Family Research Council, a key voice for religious conservatives.\nKristan Hawkins of Students for Life of America said, \"Abortion is not health care or birth control and many women want natural health care choices, rather than hormone-induced changes.\"\nAbortion opponents allege the federal family planning program in effect cross-subsidizes abortion services provided by Planned Parenthood, whose clinics are also major recipients of grants for family planning and basic preventive care. Hawkins' group is circulating a petition to urge lawmakers in Congress to support the Trump administration's proposal.\nA Trump administration overview of the proposal says it's not a \"gag rule.\" It \"will not prohibit counseling for clients about abortion...but neither will it include the current mandate that (clinics) must counsel and refer for abortion,\" said the administration document.\nAbortion rights supporters suggest that's a distinction without a difference, since the ban on referring a woman for an abortion could amount to overriding the judgment of medical professionals. They also say women will have no guarantee of getting a full review of all their options.\nPlanned Parenthood clinics also qualify for Title X grants, but they must keep the family-planning money separate from funds used to pay for abortions. The Republican-led Congress has unsuccessfully tried to deny federal funds to Planned Parenthood, and the Trump administration has vowed to religious and social conservatives that it would keep up the effort.\nPlanned Parenthood Pushes Challenge of Mississippi Law\nWhat\u2019s Next in Planned Parenthood Bill Fight?\nDo Not Appeal Frivolous Planned Parenthood Law\nIowa Court Allows Remote Dispensing of Abortion Pill",

        "raw_content": "\u2018Fortune, that arrant whore\nNe\u2019er turns the key to the poor.\u2019\nShakespeare Henry IV\nMary Poppins is a children\u2019s story written by P.L.Travers. The story is set in Edwardian England and tells of a perfect nanny who creates wonders as she takes care of two children in her care. The movie is delightful. It won thirteen academy award nominations and is today, a part of every child\u2019s video collection.\nYou know the story and you enjoyed watching the movie. However, have you looked at the story in any depth? If you have, how do you explain to your child that Mr. Banks, as a bank manager of upper English middle class earned a salary that was large enough to support a wife, two children, three maids and a gardener as well as a nanny? How do you explain that the house the family lived in probably did not have a mortgage and that the only worries the family had was Mrs. Banks\u2019 suffragette demonstrations that led to her neglecting her children, hence the arrival of Mary Poppins?\nWe all know that the story is fiction, but this is what our children have been raised on... fairy tales. The story however even though it is fiction, did give us a financial target. If this is how we believed an Edwardian middle class family lived, then why are we, as today\u2019s middle class not able to live the same way?\nUnfortunately things have changed. At the start of the Twentieth Century, although a husband\u2019s salary may have supported a wife, three or more children, a maid as well as a cook and a gardener, by the end of the First World War that salary could only support a wife, two children and one maid. The family, if they were upper middle class, probably owned their house without a mortgage. The husband worked an eight hour day while his wife stayed at home and reared the children besides looking after the home.\nBy the end of World War II , it took the salary of both the husband and wife to support two children, possibly three. The family owned their house in most instances with a mortgage. They would probably visit the local pub down the road for recreation at least once a week.\nIn today\u2019s world, it takes the salary of a husband, plus the salary of his wife and more than often the assistance of a grandparent to support a family of one or two children. There is no maid, cook or gardener yet this family lives a life that would be the envy of Mr. and Mrs Banks. Today\u2019s world offers television, computers, luxury automobiles, indoor toilets \u2013 so many things we take for granted. But, do we live a better life? Is our life less stressful?\nThe answer is decidedly, NO. So what has gone wrong? Admittedly, social values have changed, for example, \u2018The PILL\u2019 has given women a sexual freedom they never had at any time in history. This is something I am sure Mrs. Banks as a suffragette would have \u2018hurrahed.\u2019\nBecause of birth control, women today, are able to do a man\u2019s work, without the handicap of an unplanned, ill-timed pregnancy. Many women have reason to become CEO\u2019s of major Corporations and leaders in the political world. Yet why, in today\u2019s society, does it still take the combined income of two careers to support a family when, at the start of the twentieth century, it took only one? Admittedly inflation has played a major part, but statistics do show that salaries have kept pace with inflation. What then has changed?\nThe answer, I believe, is that we have become a materialistic society. We have been conditioned to own, not one but two even three television sets. We need two cars, a boat and a cottage. We need that three, if not four week holiday every year, flying all over the world , and we need \u2013 wait- do we truly need or is it that we are conditioned by the constant marketing bombardment that confuses \u2018would like to have\u2019 with \u2018must have.\u2019 Today\u2019s society has more wants and needs than society at the turn of the twentieth century. Admittedly, the governments of today have levelled the playing field, taking from the rich and giving to the poor. This they achieved by taxing the rich. However, when you talk to Warren Buffet, one of the richest men in the world, he says that he only pays 16% tax, whereas his secretary pay 23% tax, and this in that truly democratic country, the United States of America.\nAt the turn of the twentieth century, although the Banks family was upper middle class, they paid far less tax than a family today. In fact they paid no taxes, because Income Tax laws were only implemented to pay the costs of World War I, and were supposed to be only a temporary measure.\nGovernment policy regarding the distribution of wealth has, in today\u2019s world, created a far larger middle class than at the turn of the century. One should ask, \u2018how many upper class families existed then and how many families were in the lower class, or just above the poverty line, then compare those figures to today\u2019s figures. Taxes and social welfare strive to give everyone an equal opportunity to achieve, with equal living and educational standards. Opportunity combined with education and hard work, are the hallmarks of today\u2019s success.\nDuring World War II, with the men fighting at the front, women were brought into the work pool in great numbers. Women were prepared to work for lower wages than men yet do the same job, even if the work was physical. Companies found that by employing more women and less men, profitability increased because salaries paid were lower. This fact, combined with higher taxes to support a government that became more socialistic, plus a more materialistic society, made it necessary for a household to have two earners to provide the same buying power as one earner. Living standards have increased, but it now requires two salaries to support a family at that standard. Hollywood showed us the glamour. Reality is becoming that glamour. Simply count the number of privately owned swimming pools today as compared to that of 30 years ago.\nWhen we look at countries today, we find that a large portion of the population believes that their government owes them a living. The reason for this is that high taxes and lax budgetary control, effectively destroyed entrepreneurship. The pendulum in levelling the playing field has swung too far. A person who is prepared to work 18 hours a day, either through love of work or love of money, is entitled to the extra benefits they can purchase. They create businesses which in turn creates jobs. They take the financial risk and should be rewarded for taking that risk, not envied or overtaxed because, if they are wrong in their decision making, they stand to lose everything and place themselves, their family and their employees in financial danger. A person who spends ten years at a university living on the bread line while studying to receive a qualification, should decidedly earn more than a person who studies for one year. Unless of course you are a Bill Gates, Steve Jobs or Mark Zucherman, where imagination allowed them to create revolutionary businesses.\nThe majority of workers are salaried. Many businesses pay their employees an hourly wage, limiting the amount of time a worker may work in a job. This is to prevent paying benefits. Those lucky enough to find a job with a fixed monthly wage, work hard at their job, because there are many knocking at their door eager to replace them. Hourly wage workers never know exactly how much money they will have earned at the end of the month and for this reason find balancing a budget difficult.\nThis book is a small but hopefully a good attempt to show you how to balance your personal budget, irrespective of what you earn. The book will teach you how to create a surplus and how to invest that surplus efficiently, allowing you to retire and become bored early. Remember, it is not what you earn that is important it is what you keep.\nA good friend, turning 65 years old is being forced to retire because of the contract he signed with his company. His son said to him, \u201cDad, you should go and learn how to cook.\u201d\n\u201cWhy?\u201d he asked puzzled.\n\u201cWell, Dad, with Mom at work and you at home, you will be cooking our meals.\u201d\nThe examples and spreadsheets included for guidance have been made as simple and as practical as possible. Do spend time and effort practicing what we suggest. The result will be well worth it. Obviously many examples and exercises may not fit your circumstances exactly, but they are guidelines that can be adapted to your needs.\nFinally, when working through this book to prepare your budget, use a pencil and always have an eraser handy, although in today\u2019s computerized society, designing a workable spreadsheet is easy.\nI have included spreadsheets of how a budget should be prepared. If you are not computer literate, sample pages are available to photocopy and use.\nGood luck and good budgeting and never forget that\u2026\nEverything cometh to he/she who waiteth,\nSo long as he/she who waiteth worketh like hell while he/she waiteth.\nThis BOOK is available from AMAZON.COM for the Kindle eBook.",

        "raw_content": "Appreciating Woodfire\nAs a young potter studying in Canberra during the 1970s, I was conscious of what I saw as a strong stylistic difference between the pots being made in Victoria and those being made in NSW, especially the pots made by the graduates of the East Sydney Technical College, (now known as the National Art School). If the leading influence on pottery at that time was Leach\u2019s Anglo-Oriental style, my feeling was that pottery in Victoria was more influenced by the Anglo in Anglo-Oriental (and maybe more influenced by European ceramics), while Sydney-based potters studying under Peter Rushforth displayed more of the Oriental in their work. For me, the Sydney style seemed to be based around two ideas: firstly, a process-driven virtuosity of the wheel (where the wheel was used as a design tool), and secondly, an interest in the clay surface itself rather than the ceramic form simply serving as a canvas for the application of decoration.\nObviously this is an oversimplification of what was occurring at the time, but it hints at the sources of influence that have guided Janet Mansfield\u2019s potting career. Mansfield says of this time, \u2018With Peter Rushforth as the teacher and mentor, we received a mix of mingei and Leach, and admired the rebels too.\u2019[1] At this time many of the most exciting experiments in ceramics were occurring in the US at the hands of the \u2018rebels\u2019 \u2013 West coast potters such as Peter Voulkos and Paul Soldner who, with others, started what became known as the \u2018Abstract Expression Ceramics\u2019 movement. These artists, and others who followed, were influenced from within the world of pottery by 16th century Japanese tea wares and Picasso\u2019s ceramics, and from outside pottery by modern jazz with its \u2018unpredictable syncopation, occasional dissonance, free form structure\u2019, and \u2018the spirit of Zen Buddhism that had permeated California after the 1950s\u2019.[2]\nMansfield first travelled to Japan in 1970, leading a Ceramic Study Group tour. In 1977 she spent two months in Japan, initially based in Tokoname but travelling and looking at different kilns. Later she again led a tour group to Japan visiting other kiln sites, including Shigaraki and Imbe (Bizen). So Mansfield\u2019s introduction to the world of Japanese pottery occurred gradually over a considerable period of time. However, Japan was not her only direct influence. In 1975 she was a resident at the Anderson Ranch Art Centre in Colorado (at the suggestion of Paul Soldner), where she was introduced to salt-glazing. Mansfield had been interested in raku firing as it was practised by Soldner and others in the US, but found that salt-glazing was more was more likely to give her the outcomes she desired. This fortuitous introduction to salt-glazing started her on a path producing the types of pottery that Jack Troy coined \u2018kiln-glazed ceramics\u2019 \u2013 the vapour-glazed ceramics produced in salt-glazed and woodfired kilns.[3] Mansfield later adopted the technique of ash-glazed ware produced by the natural interaction of ash and clay, from firing her own woodfired anagama kiln based upon the Japanese Bizen and Shigaraki traditions.\nThe aesthetic foundation of Mansfield\u2019s pottery can be found in this combination of influences. In the spirit of ##mingei##, Mansfield\u2019s work is made to be used. In the spirit of Zen, her action of making on the wheel is quick and decisive, as is her incised surface decoration. Her throwing is fluid; the rim and the whole form can be seen as an analogy of the brushwork circle drawn by a Zen calligraphy master \u2013 a record of the moment of its making. The forms are influenced by Japanese pottery but filtered through the prism of the Leach tradition and the Abstract Expressionist ceramics from the US, but, ultimately, they are personal; they are Janet Mansfield.\nWhen Mansfield built an anagama kiln at her property at Gulgong in 1987, her work began to more directly engage with the aesthetics of Japanese ceramics, in particular, the aesthetics that developed during the 16th century in the restricted space of the Japanese tea ceremony.\n51 In correspondence with the author, 2012\n[2] Clark, G. \u2018Abstract Expressionism Revisited, Part One, the Otis Years 1954 to 1959\u2019 in ##Shards: Garth Clark on Ceramic Art##, edited by John Pagliano pp 274-6\n[3] Troy, J. ##Wood-fired Stoneware and Porcelain##, Chilton Book Co., 1995\nIn a time of social turmoil and civil war in Japan, an aesthetic that rejected the perfection of the work of the Chinese potters of the Sung and Ming dynasties in favour of the use of local materials and domestic needs made in Shigaraki and Bizen was introduced into the developing tea ceremony. Initially the pots used in this way were \u2018found objects\u2019; that is, those woodfired, unglazed pots made for rural use and considered of no value that became recognised by tea masters as containing a beauty worthy of being introduced into the tearoom.\nThe aesthetic that developed from this is known as ##wabi##, and consists of three aspects: a simple, unpretentious beauty; an imperfect, irregular beauty; and an austere, stark beauty.[1] Mansfield\u2019s woodfired works display these aesthetic qualities \u2013 austere and complex, and, at the same time, simple, with irregular falls of natural ash glaze. With little or no applied glaze they are about the clay, the fire, and the marks left by her hands during the making.\nTypically, Mansfield\u2019s anagama-fired pottery receives ash deposits that melt during the firing to form a glossy glaze. The surfaces that do not receive this natural glazing develop flashing effects, which, with Mansfield\u2019s Gulgong clays, can produce a rich red or dark burnished-leather appearance. Pots that become covered with ash and charcoal near the firebox build up a rough surface of less molten ash and this will sometimes give a rich black \u2018scorched\u2019 quality as carbon is trapped in these deposits.\nMansfield\u2019s work often exhibits runs of molten ash and these often end in a round drop of glass. These ash runs follow the pull of gravity, so on her tumble stacked pots the ash runs horizontally around the form. Rich flashing can also occur between the tumble-stacked forms, and the wads used to separate the pots leave contrasting pale areas. Cracks that occur during the firing are judged aesthetically and not considered a reason to reject the work.\nAlthough these qualities of anagama firing can be defined within the tradition of woodfired pottery in Japan, the presence of these effects in no way makes Mansfield\u2019s work \u2018Japanese\u2019. Mansfield makes the point that in the three solo exhibitions she had in both Kyoto and Tokyo, as well as several group shows in which she has participated in Japan, \u2018the reaction from the Japanese collectors is that the work looks Australian, maybe because of the high feet, the colours, the shapes; I don't know.\u2019 [2]\nI\u2019m not sure if there is such a thing as an \u2018Australian aesthetic\u2019 in relation to woodfired ceramics, I am perhaps too close to the subject to be able to have an opinion on the matter. However, it is clear that there is an aesthetic unity to the work that Mansfield creates \u2013 an aesthetic whole that is, knowingly or subconsciously, driven by many aspects of the Japanese aesthetic of wabi. As mentioned before, Mansfield\u2019s pots are made with an economy of movement, at the same time dynamic and decisive, and this shows in her thrown forms. Sourcing material from her local area, the district of Gulgong, Mansfield has utilised a clay body that fires beautifully in the anagama: a clay that is neither Bizen nor Shigaraki, but is Janet Mansfield.\nIn contrast to the pine and softwoods used by many potters, particularly in Japan, Mansfield uses the hardwoods from her district that give different qualities of ash fall and a darker coloured natural ash glaze. And although Mansfield states that \u2018the pots I like best are mostly Japanese\u2019, her own pots are an amalgam of her many influences, with undoubtedly the most important contributory factors being her energy and her own artistic creativity.\nIan Jones is a woodfire potter from Gundaroo, NSW, Australia.\nHe is currently a candidate in the PhD program at the Canberra School of Art, Australian National University.\n[1] Haga Koshiro, \u2018The Wabi Aesthetic through the Ages\u2019, Paul Varley and Isao Kumakura (eds). ##Tea in Japan##, Honolulu: University of Hawaii Press, 1989, pp 196-200\n[2] In correspondence with the author, 2012",

        "raw_content": "CEE real estate investment volumes hit impressive \u20ac9 billion in 2015\nPoland leads the CEE region with \u20ac4.1 billion of finalized investment transactions, followed by the Czech Republic with \u20ac2.65 billion\n\u200bPrague, 27 January 2016 \u2013 As core European markets continue to become increasingly tight, the CEE region is attracting more capital and witnessing high levels of real estate investment activity.\nStuart Jordan, Head of Capital Markets CEE at JLL, said: \u201cWith almost \u20ac9 billion in real estate transactions, 2015 represented the third highest CEE regional investment volume on record. Whilst Poland and Czech Republic attracted 76% of regional volume, 2015 saw growth and continued interest also in Hungary, Romania and Slovakia. Further to this, the SEE region is showing strong signs of attracting new equity sources to the region, with Serbia leading the way in terms of large institutional grade transactions. Investor appetite is set to continue and considering the ongoing deals and those in the pipeline, we expect 2016 to be another good year for Central and Eastern Europe markets\u201d.\nA full -year breakdown saw Poland lead the region in terms of real estate investment volumes with \u20ac4.1 billion, a 2015 share of 46%. The Czech Republic came next (30%, a total of \u20ac2.65 billion) followed by Hungary (9%, \u20ac790 million), Romania (7.5%, \u20ac650 million), Slovakia (4.5%, \u20ac412 million), and the SEE (other CEE) markets (3%, ca \u20ac300 million).\nCzech Republic: the best year since 2007\nFor the Czech Republic, the last year\u00b4s volume is the highest since 2007 when a total of \u20ac2.87 billion was recorded. After a strong first half, H2 2015 saw a further \u20ac1.45 billion of transactions to provide a full-year figure of \u20ac2.65 billion. H2 was therefore 65% higher than the comparable 2014 figure. Overall, volumes were ca. 8% below the 2007 country record.\n25 transactions in H2 provided an average deal size above \u20ac58 million, with traditional sector activity focused on offices (12) and retail (7). Notably, the largest transaction of the period was the sale of a residential portfolio by a private Czech group and whilst residential is not a developed institutional investment asset class in the Czech Republic, the profile of the RPG portfolio saw Blackstone / Round Hill Capital complete its purchase in August for ca. \u20ac700 million.\n\u201cDuring 2015, domestic equity further cemented its position within the well-diversified Czech capital pool; H2 saw 62% of offices and 50% of retail purchased by Czech entities,\u201d says Stuart Jordan. Of particular note was the purchase of \u2018Savarin\u2019, a retail-led, mixed-use project by Czech group Crestyl from Ballymore for ca. \u20ac84 million; this redevelopment opportunity\u2019s realisation will constitute a major regeneration of an area behind Wenceslas Square (Prague\u2019s main high street) and sparked a competitive tender involving an array of international and domestic groups.\nElsewhere, retail transactions demonstrated the continued appetite for regional assets. Vary\u00e1da shopping centre in Karlovy Vary and the Bluehouse Portfolio both traded to push total H2 retail volumes up to \u20ac322 million. Offices in H2 saw an increase of ca. 74% by volume when compared with H1 as the number of individual transactions doubled to 12. Industrial and logistics saw its largest transaction of 2015 in H2 with the \u20ac75 million purchase of the Amazon facility near Prague airport by AEW.\n\u201cLooking forward, a sizable pipeline across all sectors complimented by a supportive financial environment suggests that 2016 will continue the pattern of robust transactional volumes from a variety of capital sources,\u201d concludes Stuart Jordan.",

Do you ever give thought to any habits you may have?\nWell, I was unable to purchase a weekly planner like the one I used last year. I guess I just waited too long or maybe the store wasn\u2019t carrying the same one this year. Since I\u2019d become accustomed to the 2011 one, I\u2019m having some trouble changing to a new format of my 2012 planner.\nYou see, I\u2019d made a habit of using last year\u2019s planner and by habit knew just where I should put things and where I should check for things. So I\u2019m nine days into forming a new habit\u2014learning how to use my new planner.\nSuch a little thing, really, but still it\u2019s a habit-thing I\u2019m dealing with and it\u2019s a little awkward now. But let\u2019s see, I\u2019ve got twelve days to go and I\u2019ll have this new planner format down pat.

Brenda writes gritty, life-affirming fiction that offers hope and reminds the reader they\u2019re not alone. She is a member of the American Christian Fiction Writers, and is currently President of the ACFW Minnesota chapter, MN-NICE. She resides in the Minneapolis, Minnesota area with her husband of 26 years, their three children, and one sassy cat.\nHer debut novel, Chain of Mercy, Book #1 in the Coming Home series, came out in April of 2014, and Pieces of Granite, the prequel to Chain of Mercy, is scheduled to release on September 16, 2014!\nWelcome, Brenda. What fun or unique things can you tell us about yourself?\nI love to sing, and in my mid-twenties I had an opportunity to sing with a madrigal group called The Elizabethan Syngers. Our main performing venue was at a local Renaissance Festival, and it was there I experienced my two seconds of fame. Our group was photographed, singing at the front entrance to the Ren Fest, by the Midwest Living magazine, and the full page picture was featured in an article about Renaissance Festivals.\nI\u2019m not big into genealogy, but I do know of two famous ancestors in our family tree, both on my mom\u2019s side of the family: Myles Standish (of Mayflower & Plymouth Colony fame) and Ralph Waldo Emerson. I claim I inherited the literary gene from Emerson.\nI love the arts! Especially musical theater and choral or orchestral music. If I were wealthy, I\u2019d probably have season tickets to many of the theatrical/musical venues in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area. And since the arts are huge in the Twin Cities, that would keep me very busy!\nI also love spending time with my family. Our kids are 21, 19, and 18, yet they still enjoy spending time with us. We all love amusement parks, especially crazy roller coasters. We also love going to movies together. Our favorites right now seem to be in the Marvel universe, e.g. The Avengers, Captain America, and Thor. And we love baseball\u2014watching it, that is. None of us are athletic, so we live vicariously through watching the Minnesota Twins.\nThat\u2019s a tough question, because I know I\u2019d be tongue-tied with anyone! I guess if I had the chance, I would love to talk with my grandparents again. There are so many questions I have now that I never thought to ask them when they were alive, and I know they have fascinating stories to tell.\nPlease tell us about Chain of Mercy.\nChain of Mercy is my debut novel. It\u2019s the first in the 4-book Coming Home series, all contracted through Winslet Press.\nHere\u2019s a blurb:\nManhattan businessman Richard Brooks was at the top of the world, drunk with success, wealth, and women. Until one disastrous evening, when his world came crashing down.\nRichard flees to Minneapolis where he repairs ancient boilers instead of solving corporate problems, and he\u2019s determined to live the solitary life he now deserves.\nBut Executive Sheila Peterson has other plans for the handsome custodian. Richard appears to be the perfect match for the no-strings-attached romance she\u2019s after, but she soon discovers that he\u2019s hiding more than the designer suits in his closet.\nChain of Mercy explores forgiveness from three different angles: from someone who refused to accept forgiveness, from someone who refuses to offer forgiveness, and from someone who doesn\u2019t believe what they\u2019ve done needs forgiveness.\nI would hope that readers will understand that it doesn\u2019t matter what they\u2019ve done, nothing is beyond forgiveness.\nYou can find Chain of Mercy in paperback and for e-reader at\nLike most writers, I seem to be all over the net. I\u2019d love to get in touch with my readers! You can find me at the links below:\nInkspiration Messages\nThank you so much, Jo, for welcoming me to your blog!\nBrenda, I\u2019ve enjoyed your visit with my readers and me. One commenter will win a copy of your novel, Chain of Mercy, which you\u2019ve offered.\nRemember: leave a comment on THIS post by 6 p.m. CT Sunday, June 8, 2014 and you'll be entered in the drawing for a copy of Chain of Mercy by Brenda Anderson.

        "raw_content": "Mary Hooper: The Great Plague + A Great Author = A Best Seller!\nEarlier this month, At the Sign of the Sugared Plum, by UK author Mary Hooper hit the number 5 spot in the \"Children's and Young Adult\" section of the Amazon e-bookstore.\nWelcome, Mary! First let's hear what your book is about.\nAT THE SIGN OF THE SUGARED PLUM is about the Great Plague in England, 1665, and is told from the point of view of a young girl coming to London for the first time to help her sister in their sweetmeats shop. It's also a love story. I found out loads of fascinating details about life back then and, as chapter headings, used quotes from Pepys Diary, I also found some genuine 17th century sweet recipes and put them at the back of the book.\nHow did you get published:Traditional or independent? Recently or further in the past?\nI have been writing books for about 25 years now, and writing historical fiction for about the last ten. AT THE SIGN OF THE SUGARED PLUM was my first historical. I loved writing it so much I vowed never to write another modern book!\nSee my note to you above!\n[Mary is referring to her e-mail to me: \"Gosh, you have really made me sit up! I hadn't even realised that AT THE SIGN OF THE SUGARED PLUM was out in electronic form. When I looked, it was No.1 in three categories on Amazon kindle .... Very exciting! Thank you for letting me know.]\nIt's been in print nearly ten years now and I didn't even know it was available electronically.\nI sincerely hope not. I think there's a place for both. I have a reading device on which I've downloaded all the classics - but I couldn't manage without a REAL book, with a cover picture and a blurb and a bit about the author and all those extra things.\nWe are encouraged to use social media, but I think you are either a natural tweeter and blogger or not. I am not! I would rather be writing a chapter of a book than composing a blog. Having said that, I am a member of The History Girls Blog and we blog once a month (which I find just about manageable).\nI have no idea why it should suddenly spring forward! I had a new book out last year called FALLEN GRACE and this was very well reviewed in the New York Times, so maybe it's had a knock-on effect.\nLearn more about Mary Hooper and her many books at her website.\nSee this week's Kids' E-Book Bestseller List for more fascinating books and authors for children and young adults!\nLabels: At The Sign of the Sugared Plum, Fallen Grace, Mary Hooper",

        "raw_content": "As a tie-in to my hot lead on new sinks from Web Urbanist this week, I came across a sink they'd highlighted that stopped me in my tracks. Here's the sink in question.\nIt's gorgeous and unlike anything I've ever seen before. I have a thing for maps, the more technical and topographic the better. And that sink reminds me of the contour lines on an orienteering map like this.\nIt's part orienteering map and part nautical chart and all breathtaking. Here's an overhead shot of that same sink. Ahhhhh.\nI followed the link on Web Urbanist back to the source for these beauties and found myself on the website, Gore Design Co. Gore Design Group is a Tempe, Arizona-based purveyor of fine concrete, according to their website. They are also artists who heed the call of a different muse and I find their philosophy to be intoxicating. From their website:\n2004 \u2013 who we were:\nA raw, unconverted industrial space. A few years\u2019 worth of savings and a bunch of credit cards. One guy who\u2019s decided he wants his own design company. Who believes in sustainable design, who knows he wants to work in concrete. Who knows this is absolutely what he wants to do and who knows he has absolutely very little idea how to do it \u2013 how this is supposed to work, what comes next, how, exactly, one runs his own design company.\n2008 \u2013 who we are:\nA full-blown green design studio. Fewer credit cards. One guy plus a small creative team who\u2019ve decided this is where they want to be. We\u2019re a little off-kilter. We like caffeine. We were damaged by soul-draining corporate jobs. We\u2019ve recovered. We wear shorts and T-shirts to work. We eat a lot of sandwiches. We recycle. We make beautiful, functional art. We\u2019re believers in change. There\u2019s little that we don\u2019t see within our reach. We love what we do. We know we can do more, and we will...\nMan, what's not to love? I see a lot done with concrete --sinks, counters, floors and the like. Most of it's really heavy-handed and ungainly. Until I wandered onto Gore Design Company's website, I have never seen something made from concrete that could be called graceful. That's exactly what these sculptural sinks are though. The very poetry embodied in the buttes and washes of the American Southwest has been breathed into these forms.\nWow. Once again, their website: Gore Design Group. Spend some time looking over their portfolio and tell them I said hello.\nLabels: countertop, kitchen design, sustainability",

        "title": "KNAC.COM - Reviews - QUEENSRYCHE In St. Petersburg, FL With Photos!",
        "raw_content": "QUEENSRYCHE In St. Petersburg, FL With Photos!\nOn Saint Pete Beach During Bike Fest 2017\nAll Photos By Travis Failey/Rocket Sports & Entertainment\nThe 2017 Bike Fest continued on Saturday Night at the Tradewinds on Saint Pete Beach as QUEENSRYCHE performed on a stage with its base being in the sand. The venue was a strange one for the men from Seattle with one exception, vocalist Todd La Torre is a Florida native and still lives 15 minutes from the shoreline.\nAs the only act of the evening, QUEENSRYCHE took the stage in front of not only the bikefest attendees and VIPs but anyone else who wanted to see the show in the sand as free entry was available on the outside perimeter. Drinks were flowing all day long and late into the night as a few thousand people took part in the evening's metal festivities.\nQUEENSRYCHE opened with \"Guardian\" from their last release Condition Human. \"Guardian\" was the only song from the two Todd La Torre albums as they focused on their more recognizable songs as most bands do when they are not playing to their base crowd. There were two exceptions to this with QUEENSRYCHE going back to their Rage For Order album. They played 2 deep cuts in \"Screaming In Digital\" and \"Surgical Strike\" with \"Surgical Strike\" only being played live 8 times in 2017 and only twice since 2009.\nThe rest of the set was a balanced variety of QUEENSRYCHE's first five albums with \"Damaged\" being the only track from the Promised Land album. One of the highlights of the night was when La Torre dedicated \"Silent Lucidity\" to Malcolm Young from AC/DC who passed away earlier in the day.\nTampa native Casey Grillo surprised the local BikeFest patrons by playing drums with the band as founding member Scott Rockenfield is on paternity leave. Grillo, 41, provided another spark of youth to the group as has guitarist Parker Lungren. Lungren is the youngest in the band at 30 and was only 22 when he replaced Mike Stone after Kelly Gray replaced original guitarist Chris Degarmo.\nYes, the 2nd guitar slot has been a bit of a revolving door after Degarmo but Lungren has stopped it from swinging and is now entrenched in QUEENSRYCHE and that's a good thing for the band and the fans. The chemistry between Lundgren and founding guitarist Michael Wilton is palpable as they interacted throughout and swapped lead guitar parts especially during \"Queen Of The Ryche\" from their 1983 debut EP.\nArguably their second biggest hit \"Jet City Woman\" and fan favorite \"Take Hold Of The Flame\" finished the 13 song pre-encore set. The band took a brief break before concluding the night with two monster songs from Operation Mindcrime: \u201cRevolution Calling\u201d and \u201cEyes Of A Stranger\u201d with \u201cScreaming In Digital\u201d sandwiched between the two. It was during the encore that Todd La Torre\u2019s vocal prowess was on display and for someone without any formal training, it is amazing how well he is able to pull off QUEENSRYCHE\u2019s early catalog. La Torre also told me in an interview earlier in the day that he had a head cold but you couldn\u2019t hear any issues during his performance.\nAfter seeing the band for the 4th time since La Torre became the frontman, and even with Grillo filling in on drums, it looks and sounds like the band is tighter than ever. Listening to the attendees' comments as they departed the beach, compliments regarding QUEENSRYCHE\u2019s performance were plentiful.\nWith a new album and tour coming soon in 2018, QUEENSRYCHE is primed once again to tell the world that a Revolution\u2026. is Still Calling.",

        "title": "[Weekender] Pouring heart into diary for 15 years",
        "raw_content": "Many welcome a new year with a new diary.\nSadly, buying a diary is the easy part. Filling it can be much more difficult and many fall into disuse over the course of the year.\nWhile people buy planners, journals and schedulers fully determined to use them until the year-end, they are often forgotten about when the temperature starts to climb, and are pushed into the corner of a dusty bookshelf. Some people even give up before the spring comes.\n(Im Eun-byel, The Korea Herald)\nSome \u201cquitters\u201d successfully switch to mobile apps to manage their schedules, but others try to keep up with their daily lives by depending on their memories, often forgetting tasks.\nSeo Bo-ra is a professional when it comes to keeping a diary. She even wrote a book titled \u201cHow a Hotshot Salesperson Keeps a Diary.\u201d As the marketing director of a kiosk service company Hunik, Seo has been using diaries for the past 15 years.\n\u201cWithout them, I wouldn\u2019t have been able to work until now,\u201d Seo said, presenting more than 15 diaries that she has kept over the years. \u201cI am a working mom, 24 hours are not enough for me, but that is not an excuse to make a mistake at work.\u201d\nShe said writing everything down has made all the difference when it comes to working efficiently and projecting a professional image.\n\u201cHaving meetings with colleagues or clients, I take memos of every little detail. With the information I note down, I can give detailed feedback and people like it,\u201d she said.\nEven during the interview with The Korea Herald, Seo wrote down a task on her diary, after taking a phone call from work, saying she might forget about the task if she didn\u2019t.\nSeo does not just keep a diary, but physically keeps the diaries close by at her workspace.\n\u201cBy having them by my side, I can go back and refer to them whenever I want to, no matter how long ago,\u201d she said. \u201cI can check exactly what I did 10 years ago.\u201d\nFor her, it\u2019s not just about being professional. Seo said that she is comforted by looking into the planners from the past.\n\u201cThe diaries contain the records of the work I\u2019ve done in the past 15 years. It\u2019s as if they tell me that I cannot give up now, after all the work I\u2019ve done,\u201d she said. \u201cThey encourage me to keep going and stay strong.\u201d\nSome people tend to feel stressed about keeping a diary or journal. \u201cSome think that writing down schedules is meaningless, because they keep on changing,\u201d she said. \u201cBut with Post-its, one can easily change the written schedule on a diary. Just move it when the schedule changes. Also, when running errands, you can take the Post-its instead of the diary.\u201d\nSeo\u2019s diaries are filled with countless Post-its. She recommends formatting a document to print in a post-it style and attaching post-its to the A4 page before printing so they can be easily inserted into the diary. Her tactic is to go analog and digital at the same time.\n\u201cI write down simple but urgent issues on my smartphone, using three apps,\u201d she said. \u201cBut for more complicated tasks that need to go through other processes, an analog diary is better.\u201d\nSeo does not think that everyone needs to keep a diary. She said that there are people who don\u2019t need a diary to keep up with their lives. But to those who hesitate to do so, she said keeping a diary was definitely a plus in life.\nSeo said, \u201cBuying a diary at the start of the year is an annual event for me. Some still ask me, why do you pay for a diary? But I pour my heart into it for a whole year. It\u2019s worth it.\u201d",

This encompassed \u201cEl Mercat\u201d, a new restaurant concept in which we can find Mediterranean, signature, Italian and Japanese cuisine both to sample in the restaurant and to take home or to the office.\nThe company of Santa Perp\u00e9tua de Mogodo, LINING TIME, was in charge of transforming the Solid Surface from PORCELANOSA Group. We can find KRION\u00ae on the countertops of both the men\u2019s and women\u2019s bathrooms, and even on the special baby-change counters. The signs, located on the ceiling, which indicate the different establishments, are also made with KRION\u00ae 1100 Snow White. However, what really attracts one\u2019s attention is the dome of the spiral staircase that allows us to access the open plaza of Les Gl\u00f2ries, a piece that is spectacular due to its size and circular shape, with imperceptible joins. It is a new application of KRION\u00ae in a high transit public space, in which our solid surface, as has been demonstrated in a multitude of projects, is notable for its ideal aesthetics and function.",

        "title": "The Inner Worlds of Other People \u2014 THE INNER SEA",
        "raw_content": "On August 2, 1914, Franz Kafka wrote in his diary, \u201cGermany has declared war on Russia. Went swimming in the afternoon.\u201d The war he referred to was World War 1, which went on to kill 15-16 million people over the next four years, precipitated the end of the Ottoman Empire after seven centuries of rule, and announced the arrival of America as a world power. Decades later, as biographers pored over Kafka\u2019s enigmatic but tragically short life, this diary entry caught their eye. To some, that sentence distilled the essence of Kafka \u2014 an insouciance towards the outside world. That the unfolding butchery of World War 1 and the unremarkable rituals of a middle-class life could cohabit in the womb of his mind, like twins biding their time in the amniotic fluid of being, led them to conclude that Kafka was one cold dude.\nResponding to this charge of being emotionally unresponsive, Kafka\u2019s great biographer, Reiner Stach, explained that the truth of the matter was more subtle. What Kafka sought to record in his diaries were not events in the newspapers but their significance as the Austro-Hungarian empire \u2014 which had spread over much of continental Europe, like algae over a pond \u2014 began to crumble. When some of Kafka\u2019s private diaries were published, they belied both: the finely cut paranoias of his published works as well as accusations of being emotionally unavailable. What they revealed was the froth, the anxieties, and the contradictions out of which burbled up Kafka the man and Kafka the author.\nIn his diaries, Kafka had recorded thoughts, erotic charges, and private disappointments whose factual truth weren\u2019t hard to parse but whose meanings were difficult to fathom. In parts, this difficulty was because, like most of our private thoughts, Kafka\u2019s too were often marked by a wariness that revealed his recognition that the old world was slowly birthing something \u2014 what exactly, he didn\u2019t, or his diary didn\u2019t, record. A foreboding that the ground beneath his feet was slipping away isn\u2019t hard to infer but harder to understand was what did Kafka seek to record by the very act of diary entry. Traditionally, unlike our times where the four horsemen of social media stalk our landscape \u2014 Instagram and Facebook, Twitter and Tumblr \u2014 the only place where such reflections could be jotted down was the diary. In fact, perhaps like in the case of Kafka, the diary was often the only place where many could become themselves, unburdened by the need to pose for refinement. It is where pages could be brim with vanities and prejudices, aspirations and conspiracies.\nFor some, traditionally, the diary was a place to record the uneventfulness of their lives, while for others it was a portrait of an abyss they stared into. Irrespective, for most diligent diary writers, it was a companion, an addiction, a paramour that listened to their confessionals with the patience of a saint. Some others have gone about the act of diary writing in an even more deliberate manner than Kafka. By deliberate I mean they think about form and language, content, and the fear of being judged by posterity; while Kafka sought to peel away the skin of society that had stood too long in the hot shower of social hypocrisies. For example, with her typical mixture of candor and conceit, on April 20, 1919, Virginia Woolf wrote, \u201cWhat sort of diary should I like mine to be?\u201d Then, after some thinking aloud, she arrived at a proximate definition: \u201cI should like it to resemble some deep old desk, or capacious hold-all, in which one flings a mass of odds and ends without looking them through.\u201d For her, a diary was a storehouse of her inner fragments.\nIn early colonial India, many Indians began to take to writing diaries. In Tamil, among the earliest of diary-writers was a man, now well forgotten, called Guruvappa Pillai who, among other things, travelled to the court of Louis XV in Paris to complain about the French in Pondicherry who had incarcerated his father. The year was around 1717-1719. In due course, Pillai became Charles Philippe Gourouvapa, with Louis XV himself as his godfather. We learn of the adventures of Pillai from his cousin Ananda Ranga Pillai, whose diaries from the period 1736 to 1799 filled \u201cthirteen large registers\u201d, copies of which now reside in the venerable Bibliotheque Nationale in France.\nWhat is striking \u2014 one is indebted to the commentary of the scholar S. Jeyaseela Stephen who translated the diaries of Rangappa Thiruvengadam Pillai, which spans the period from 1761 to 1768 \u2014 is that these diaries were written with a heavy flavour of colloquialism. To some scholars of Tamil and Indian history, this usage of common folk language has derogated the value of these historical documents. Yet, ironically, it is in these private confessionals that the history of India may reveal itself to be more radical and less conforming to the ideologies of anti-colonialism that we retroactively impose on our past.\nPerhaps, a century from now, future historians will look back at our Facebook posts and Twitter feeds to discover a society that rather willingly inverted the diary-writing habits of its ancestors and began to pour its inner thoughts onto public forums. They may think it is an aberration or, if they are perspicacious, they will see it for what it truly is: a desire to find meaning, be it as a confessional or as an aesthetic exercise, in an otherwise meaningless existence. Even Kafka, that great hermetic intelligence, couldn\u2019t resist that. []",

Students will work at home with a parent, then attend school on Tuesdays and Thursdays to take a music, art or language class, as well as a science, technology, engineering and math program.\nA student\u2019s progress will be tracked by a teacher who is working with the student\u2019s family.\n\u201cParents choose the education that they want their student to have at home,\u201d Eckola said.\nThe location for the Maple Park program has not been chosen yet, but Eckola said it probably will be the existing elementary school where the most students choose the charter school option.\n\u201cWe want to see where the majority of the students are from,\u201d she said. \u201cWe want to make sure we meet the demands of our community the best we can.\u201d\nStudents in the New Visions Charter School for high school kids will take online courses at home and then go to Badger for career-preparatory or elective classes, such as a shop class, advanced chemistry class or theater class.\nEckola said students can mix the number of classes that they take online and at the high school as they like.\n\u201cSome students might take three classes online and then come to Badger High School for the rest of their classes,\u201d she said. \u201cIf they\u2019re taking welding or shop classes, obviously that\u2019s hands on, and they would have to come to the high school to take those.\u201d\nBadger school board president Pat Sherman said the way students are educated has changed over the years, and the charter school concept is a way to go along with that change.\nOfficials are trying to benefit students who may not excel in a traditional school setting, Sherman said.\n\u201cIt\u2019s another way to approach education,\u201d he said. \u201cI\u2019ve been with the school board for about 28 years now, and I\u2019ve seen education change dramatically during those 28 years.\u201d\nThe charter schools will be governed by a charter school board, which will report to both existing school boards once a year on how the new programs are progressing. The charter school board will consist of seven members selected by the two school districts.\nThe school districts are currently accepting enrollment for the charter schools for the 2019-2020 school year. Eckola said she is not certain how many students will be able to enroll.\nAn informational meeting regarding the charter schools is scheduled 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. Feb. 26 at the school district administrative office.\nSeveral parents have expressed an interest in enrolling their children in a charter school, Eckola said.\n\u201cI\u2019m excited,\u201d she said. \u201cI think it will be a great program.\u201d\nJanice Eckola\nMaple Park Charter School",

        "title": "Landscape Trades - Consequential loss goes to Ottawa",
        "raw_content": "Consequential loss goes to Ottawa\nIn a previous column on construction liability insurance, we pointed out that the insured\u2019s own work is generally excluded from the scope of coverage under a CGL (comprehensive general liability) insurance policy. We pointed out these policies are not generally designed to cover the contractor\u2019s own deficient work, but are drafted to cover damages caused unintentionally to either another person, or another person\u2019s property. From a different perspective, it can be said that CGL insurance is intended to cover \u2018accidents\u2019 which occur in, or because of, the insured\u2019s performance of its own work \u2014 and not the insured\u2019s own work itself.\nIn practice, the distinction between an insured\u2019s \u2018own work\u2019 and what might be considered accidental damage gives rise to the concept of \u2018consequential\u2019 or \u2018resulting\u2019 loss. An example we have used involves construction of a retaining wall which falls down: the CGL policy will generally not cover the cost of repairing or rebuilding the wall because the contractor did what he intended to do in building the wall, and there is no \u2018accident.\u2019 If the wall falls on a Volkswagen, however, the CGL policy will generally respond to the claim of the car owner. The damage is an unforeseen consequence of the construction deficiency, unrelated to the work itself. (There are often, we have said, exceptions to the own work exclusion set out in the policy. These include where the work is performed by a subcontractor of the insured or where the work fails due to a design defect and coverage for design is specifically included in the policy).\nThe concept of consequential loss can be confusing, however. It is sometimes difficult to draw a line between what is the insured\u2019s own work and a consequence of that work. By way of example, if you build a house for someone, and after completion, the foundation fails such that the entire house needs to be torn down and replaced, would any of the reconstruction costs be covered under a standard GCL policy? The insured would argue that only the foundation failed, and that while the replacement of the foundation should be excluded for coverage the need to replace the rest of the home is a result of the failed work, and thus covered as consequential loss. (The insured would argue that the cost of replacing the rest of the house is akin to the Volkswagen). The insurer, however, would argue that the cost of replacing the rest of the house is nothing more than the cost of correcting the insured\u2019s own deficient foundation, and therefore not brought within coverage.\nOur courts have struggled in the application of the concept of consequential loss. The cases have depended on the facts of each particular case and on the wording of the particular policies. They have struggled, to some degree, to develop a predictable method of determining when rectification costs move from being the cost of correcting deficient work to the cost of rectifying the result, or consequence, of deficient work. We may soon, however, have some guidance from the Supreme Court of Canada on this topic.\nHope for clarity\nRecently, the Supreme Court has agreed to hear an appeal in which it will be asked to consider the line between faulty workmanship and resulting damage in a CGL policy. The case under appeal, Ledcor v Northbridge Indemnity Insurance Company, involves an insurance policy which covered \u201cdirect physical loss or damage\u201d to an owner\u2019s property in the construction of a new building. The policy was subject to, among other things, the \u2018own work\u2019 exclusion.\nOn the facts of the case, and as construction was winding down, a company was hired to clean the exterior of the building, including the windows. The windows were damaged by the cleaning process and they had to be replaced. The insured made a claim for the replacement costs under the policy, and the insurer denied on the basis of the \u2018own work\u2019 exclusion, arguing that the damage was the \u2018faulty workmanship\u2019 of the insured and therefore not covered under the policy. At trial, the trial judge recognized the contractor\u2019s work was faulty and that the \u201ccost of making good\u201d that faulty workmanship was excluded. The insured successfully argued, however, that while the cleaning work may have been faulty, the scratches to the windows were a consequence of that work, and not the work itself. The trial judge held that while the insurance would not respond to pay for the windows to be washed again (the \u2018own work\u2019), it should respond to the damage caused by the work \u2014 which included the scratches produced by the cleaning process.\nThe Alberta Court of Appeal overturned the trial decision. The court held that the purpose of the policy was to cover certain unexpected events and accidents. It declined to find coverage because, in the court\u2019s view, a standard CGL construction policy is not intended to provide a \u201cwarranty\u201d that construction is performed properly. The court expressly stated that, in its view, clarity needed to be brought to the law as regards the interpretation of CGL policies and scope of the \u2018own work\u2019 exclusion.\nWe are optimistic that the Supreme Court will bring some clarity to the scope of the \u2018own work\u2019 exclusion, which can be applied nationwide with some degree of predictability by insurance companies and their counsel. We also see the issue as being very significant to many CNLA members, and will report back once the court has rendered its decision.",

        "raw_content": "I belong to a 501(c)(7). The Board is wanting to do away with the requirement that members vote for Board members. That would make the Board self perpetuating.\nMy understanding of Chapter 7. Exempt Organizations Determinations Manual from the IRS, specifically 7.25.7.2.1.1.2, where it states:\n7.25.7.2.1.1.2 (02-23-1999) Rights and Privileges\n1. Member\u2019s rights and privileges are as follows:\nA. A regular member has the right to vote and determine the management, operation and control of the club. He/she will generally share in the assets of the club in the event of dissolution.\nB. An associate member has no right to vote and will not generally share in the assets in the event of dissolution. In some cases, both regular and associate members may be entitled to the use and enjoyment of all club facilities, or may be limited to the use of a part of the facilities(i.e., golf only, tennis only, clubhouse only, etc.).\nMany years ago the Board changed the Bylaws, reducing the number of Board members to 7 members, with 5 appointed by the Board and 2 elected by the members. Now the Board is planning change the Bylaws again. Eliminating the ability for members to vote for any Board members. I sincerely believe this change will result in the club losing its nonprofit status.\nThe Board will not listen to membership. The believe they have the right to do this under the Colorado Nonprofit Corporations Act. We are not disputing their right to change the Bylaws, we are worried about the issue of losing the tax exempt status we currently have. When we questioned the Board about the tax exempt status all they keep repeating is the Colorado Nonprofit Corporations Act allows them to make the change. Thank you for your time, it is greatly appreciated.\nby Maelisa \u00bb Sat Mar 18, 2017 1:01 pm\nI have in my profile that this free forum is only for general questions about IRS federal exemption issues of 501(c)(3) organizations. The IRS allows 501(c)(3) organizations to have self-perpetuating boards. Your question is about IRS regulations for 501(c)(7) organization. Even though this forum is not for such matters I will try to give you some lead. I will not, however, be looking into Colorado state law. It appears you are referring to a social club and social clubs do not qualify for 501(c)(3) organization status. IRC 501(c)(7) exempts from federal income tax, clubs \"organized for pleasure, recreation, and other nonprofitable purposes, substantially all of the activities of which are for such purposes and no part of the net earnings of which inures to the benefit of any private shareholder.\"http://www.irs.gov/irm/part7/irm_07-025-007.html In the section right above the section that you cited to we see:\n--- Start of excerpt ---\n7.25.7.2.1.1.1 (02-23-1999)\nClubs may have more than one class of membership, such as:\ncorporation-sponsored, and\nIf a club has more than one class of membership, each membership class should have eligibility requirements and a formal admittance procedure, even for a nonvoting class. --- End of excerpt ---\nI do not see in that IRS summary that there is a requirement that there be a voting class. You may not know, but states do not allow boards to change voting classes voting rights, without the approval of that voting class.

        "raw_content": "The First Sunday in Advent in Year C 2018-2019\nSeries C: 2018-2019\nThe season of Advent quietly opens the door to a new church year as assemblies focus on the coming of God. Not only do we celebrate the incarnation so beautifully narrated by Luke, we celebrate the continuous coming in creation, community, word and sacrament. Finally, we look forward to the mysterious advent that Moltmann calls \u201cthe sabbath of eternal joy\u201d (The Coming of God, Minneapolis: Fortress, 1996, p. 338).\nAs we reflect on Advent readings from the Revised Common Lectionary, we will hear texts concerned with both the future and the incarnation, texts that are woven together by deep confidence in the presence of a Word that empowers our lives and gives us endurance to struggle for ecojustice.\nEach week during this dramatic season we must ask the question voiced by film director David Mamet: \u201cWhere do we put the camera\u201d (David Mamet, On Directing Film, New York: Penguin, 1991, p. 10)? This week\u2019s Gospel text, which will be our focus, suggests that we position our \u201ccameras\u201d as best we can facing what can only be called a threatening future. Elizabeth Kolbert sounds the alarm: \u201cThis fiery summer has given us a glimpse of what climate change will look like.\u201d She proceeds to describe not only all-too-common blazes in the western U.S., but also to remind us of deadly fires ranging from Greece to Sweden\u2019s Arctic Circle (Kolbert, The New Yorker, September 10, 2018, p. 36). Then, in early October, the IPCC reported that a 2.0 degree allowable rise in temperature sanctioned by the Paris Accords of 2015 must be reduced to 1.5 degrees C. Eric Solheim of the UN Climate Programme said of this new report, \u201cIt\u2019s like a deafening, piercing smoke alarm going off in the kitchen. We have to put out the fire\u201d (Minneapolis Star-Tribune, October 9, 2018, pp. 1 and 10).\nThe reality of living in a new climate regime (labeled \u201canthropocene\u201d by Earth systems scientists) intensifies our stance toward the future. Because of the Earth\u2019s response to human release of greenhouse gases, we are learning that \u201cin the anthropocene we may say that the present is drenched with the future...the unsettling presence of things to come\u201d (Clive Hamilton, Defiant Earth, Cambridge: Polity, 2017, p. 132). To double down on this, Bruno Latour suggests, \u201cwe have to position ourselves as though we were at the end of time\u201d (Facing Gaia: Eight Lectures on the New Climate Regime, Cambridge: Polity, 2017, p. 213).\nPerhaps we can slacken the tension by taking a biblical cue offered by Latour. It comes from Paul\u2019s advice to the Corinthian community: \u201cThose who mourn should live as if they did not; those who are happy as if they were not; those who buy something as if it were not theirs to keep; those who use the things of the world as if not engrossed in them. For this world in its present form is passing away\u201d (1 Cor. 7: 30-31, Latour). Not only does this orient us toward the future, but it reminds us that the end/purpose of our lives is to be about the down-to-earth task of worship, learning, and serving one another and the whole creation in expectation of renewal.\nThis new advent also calls our attention to Luke\u2019s Gospel. Unique in sharing his methodology, the author proposes to undertake an investigation to write \u201can orderly account\u201d (Luke 1:1-4) so that worshipping communities will hear reliable truth. This new \u201chistory\u201d reckons with \u201cthe events that have been fulfilled among us\u201d (Luke 1:1b). Michael Trainor suggests that the verb translated as \u201cfulfilled,\u201d plerophoreo, might be better translated as \u201cbrought to fruition\u201d (as it is translated more than 70 times in LXX), reflecting divine action to bear renewal for the Earth household (About Earth\u2019s Child: An Ecological Listening to the Gospel of Luke, Sheffield Press, 2015, p. 65). That creational fruitfulness is central to Luke is underscored by his genealogy, beginning with \u201cAdam, son of God\u201d (Luke 3:38), not with Abraham as Matthew has it (Matthew 1:2). Creation, then, orders Luke\u2019s Gospel.\nAs Luke orders the story of divine fruitfulness, concern for the future is unavoidable. Because this gospel stems from the post-temple era (after 70 CE) use of material from Mark\u2019s \u201clittle apocalypse\u201d is unique. No longer do we envision the elect being gathered in by angels (Mark 13: 27). Now the consequences of the coming parousia will be felt throughout the earth (oikoumene) (Luke 21:26, 35). What is more, this universal renewal of the fruitfulness of life is to be met not with fear but with eager joy: \u201craise up your heads\u201d (Luke 21: 28) to \u201cstand before the Son of Man\u201d (Luke 21: 36).\nJust as Luke shapes the Markan tradition for the needs of his own audience, so must we interpret \u2018sun, moon, and stars\u201d (Luke 21: 25) in a manner more comprehensible to us. Influenced by the poetics of T. S. Eliot, Michael Trainor suggests that the meaning of a poem or verse is not fixed by the author\u2019s milieu. \u201cIts meaning continues and expands beyond the writer\u2019s lifetime...and is the fruit of interrelated texts\u2014earlier generational insights, cultural factors that influence the writer, the social world of the text\u2019s original audience, previous texts and traditions, and the world which the interpreter brings to the text\u201d (Trainor, p. 46).\nWhile it is not the intention of this writer to literalize the metaphorical power of apocalyptic, the current despoiling of creation cannot help but influence our understanding. The sun and moon seen through the polluted air of Shanghai or San Francisco (or even the Twin Cities when choked by smoke from Canadian wildfires) offer a clear sign of threat. The distress caused in the Philippines, Puerto Rico, or the Gulf Coast of the U.S. by the \u201croaring of the sea\u201d (Luke 21:25) during major storms fills living creatures with \u201cforeboding about what is coming upon the world\u201d (Luke 21:26). Advent of 2018 must still promise the Coming One\u2014if only he can be seen through the cloud deck (Luke 21:27). Yet this is not a time of paralysis for the faith community. Instead, the call is to straighten up in confidence because of the divine commitment to creation, the same commitment shared by all seeking ecojustice.\nLuke also transforms the \u201cparable of the fig tree\u201d (Luke 21: 29-33). Now we are invited to consider \u201cthe fig tree and all the trees\u201d (v. 29). Because the fig tree is a common symbol for Israel (see Hosea 9:10), by referencing all trees the author signals an audience beyond the Jewish (or Jewish-Christian?) community. It is no longer that the Messiah is near, \u201cat the very gates\u201d (Mark 13: 29b), but that the more universalized \u201ckingdom of God is near\u201d (Luke 21: 31) and provides confidence in the integrity of creation.\nThis insight provides help in uncovering the meaning of this difficult concluding sentence: \u201cHeaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away\u201d (Luke 21: 33). While current cultural forms and exploitation are transient, when we remember that divine speech (dabar) is the very basis of creation, we claim without reservation that removal of creation from God\u2019s care would be impossible (Trainor, p. 258). Luke remains very down-to-earth.\nIt is these very mundane issues that comprise the final part of our text, all distinctly Lukan. Because Luke continues to call believers to attend to creation and evidence of needs, paying prayerful attention is crucial. As always (a word appropriate to Luke\u2019s longer time horizon), there are temptations dulling this careful awareness. \u201cBe on guard,\u201d Luke warns, \u201cso that your hearts are not weighed down with dissipation and drunkenness and the worries of this life....\u201d (Luke 21: 34).\nNo doubt there have always been diversions that get in the way of faithful responsibility. But no time in history has provided the distractions available in the present age. Neil Postman has captured the power of communications technology to divert in his Amusing Ourselves to Death: Public Discourse in the Age of Show Business (New York: Penguin, 1985), now a generation old. While information technology can be a powerful tool of change (witness this website), there is no doubt that, as Postman argues, in the US the real danger to civic culture is not only the hard-nosed authoritarianism (think of immigration and prison policies) depicted by George Orwell in 1984, but the pleasure-driven polity painted by Aldous Huxley in Brave New World, a culture based on consumption, drug use, and self-absorption.\nWhile the militarization of police forces and increasing surveillance technology do smack of Orwell, the mania of consumerism, advertising, and easy credit, especially this time of year, begin to resemble a hedonocracy. Naturally these have all infected the church where \u201centertainment-based worship\u201d and messages promoting \u201cadjustment\u201d to this kind of culture are rampant. Recognizing this, Postman writes, \u201cI believe I am not mistaken in saying that Christianity is a demanding and serious religion. When it is delivered as easy and amusing, it is another kind of religion altogether\u201d (Postman, p.121).\nPerhaps the most significant form that \u201cdissipation\u201d takes today is the refusal to take climate change seriously. How do we explain this? Is it because of lack of scientific understanding, the likelihood that homo sapiens is hard-wired by our evolution for short-term thinking, a psychology of previous investment that ill fits us for major change, increased urbanization with decreasing contact with the natural world, the lobbying of wealthy carbon companies, or sinful selfishness\u2014the heart curved in upon itself? Likely all of these play a significant role.\nFrench theologian and philosopher, Bruno Latour, asks that we dig deeper. While Lutherans have just last year celebrated one of the catalytic events of the Reformation, Luther\u2019s October 31, 1517 call to debate the nature of church authority, we often ignore the tragedy of a century of European warfare sparked by this movement. By the time of the Peace of Westphalia (1648), parties exhausted by war sought a basis for order beyond divisive claims of religious truth. What emerged was a firm agreement to respect the principal cuius regio, cuius religio first promulgated as part of the Peace of Augsburg of 1555. This meant that religion now was less a search for truth and free to be used as an ideological support for the new mercantilism aimed at adding to the wealth and military power of the state, vast acquisition of natural resources from colonial conquest, the new science, and, eventually, the all-powerful market to allocate wealth (Stephen Toulmin, Cosmopolis: the Hidden Agenda of Modernity, Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 1992, p. 90).\nIn effect, states immanentized religious forces, giving a spiritual patina to the economic behemoths and empires that resulted. Although Karl Marx was wrong in many ways, he was dead right in his analysis of the ideological use of Christianity, a new gnosticism that gave divine authority to anything the Belgians did in the Congo or the English inflicted on child workers in what Blake called \u201cthe Satanic mills\u201d (see Eric Voegelin, The New Science of Politics, Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 1952, chapters V and VI). Ironically, this ideological use of religion was precisely what was at the basis of Luther\u2019s revolt\u2014exposing the mis-use of the free Word of God as an \u201cinstitutional mascot.\u201d\nBecause human regimes were so confident of their arrogant divinely-approved goals, it was and is unthinkable that anything so mundane as the Earth system and its carbon-stuffed atmosphere should get in the way. The very notion that the earth could demonstrate agency, reacting to being treated like a cesspool, is unthinkable (Latour, p. 207). Is not the will of the Holy One that those created in the \u201cimage\u201d of God produce and consume endlessly? To play on a well-known verse, \u201cWhat use is it to save your soul, if it means losing the world? \u201c Even if it is God\u2019s good creation.\nClearly, we are at a point where we have to listen to Luke and take the notion of \u201cend time\u201d seriously once more. Late in his life, Karl Barth wrote, \u201cWe do not know what Nature, what the cosmos in which we have lived and still live now, will be for us then; what the constellations, the sea, the broad valleys and the heights, which we see and know now, will say and mean then\u201d (quoted in Hamilton, p. 133). Unfortunately, laments Hamilton, \u201cwe can indeed make out, through the haze of residual uncertainty, the future\u2019s broad contours under the influence of this new human power\u201d (Hamilton, p. 133).\nAs the shape of this anthropocene apocalypse becomes clearer, we are discovering where the cameras must be aimed: toward a people looking for freedom from all that \u201camuses us to death\u201d and instead learning to live down-to-earth lives that focus on \u201cwhere we are\u201d (our home neighborhood) and \u201cwho we are\u201d (servants of creation). This happens when we are alert at all times and pray that we have the strength not to flee our call to seek ecojustice.\nBy not fleeing, we embrace one of the richest themes in scripture: dwelling. \u201cTo dwell\u201d means to make a commitment to a place, its people (neighbors), and its very humus. Even in Luke\u2019s Gospel, which ends with the call to share the good news with all the world, beginning in Jerusalem (Luke 24:47-48), the purpose is to provide a home for all in this fruitful earth. This means that the greatest Advent surprise\u2014echoing the Bethlehem birth\u2014is John\u2019s vision that at the fulfillment of all things we will:\nSee, the home of God is among humans (all that lives)\nGod will dwell with them.... (Revelation 21:3)\nNot surprisingly, John\u2019s apocalypse ends with the watchword for Advent: \u201cAmen. Come, Lord Jesus\u201d (Revelation 22: 20).",

This solo life is a lot of work. It takes commitment and self-discipline to work when no one is telling you to. It takes more hours than you thought. It takes making the time to 'get' the work and 'do' the work. It is constant. You don't get paid if you don't work. I have been very successful (making more money than I did when I worked for someone else), yet I fantasize about re-joining a firm. I also fantasize about creating something totally different than what currently exists in the world of state tax. I want to make state taxes exciting. Fun even. I want to create passive income. I want to create freedom for other state tax pros. I want state tax to be less burdensome for start-ups and middle-market companies. These (smaller) companies need state taxes to get out of the way so they can truly prosper. Fortune 500 companies have teams of tax pros and large firms begging to help them. They also have the means to get that expertise. I hate the ego and competition in larger firms. I hate feeling like a number.

        "raw_content": "Copyright is an important instrument for the protection of intellectual property. It ensures that someone who has created something of value is able to protect that value by controlling the right to copy, use, perform, license, or modify their creation. So long as that creation is original, and expressed in a physical form. Copyright law differs from other intellectual property instruments such as patents and trademark law.\nCopyright protects some products that have been developed through the application of creative or original thinking. Such creations are collectively referred to as intellectual property. The protection of intellectual property is critical in ensuring that the interests of creators are protected. It also allows creators to commercialise their work in a way that suits their goals or aspirations, without having to deal with competitors who have blatantly copied their work.\nIntellectual property rights are an important part of commercial law, and various instruments exist under common law to protect intellectual property. Copyright is one such instrument.\nAustralian copyright law is laid out in the Commonwealth Copyright Act 1968. Under the Act, certain forms of creative material may we awarded the protection of copyright. Generally, examples of content that may be protected by copyright include content that is:\nTextual \u2013 Referring to a form of content that is interpreted through writing, with the meaning and value being placed on the ideas expressed through that writing;\nArtistic \u2013 Especially visual art, such as film or other media;\nMusical \u2013 Content that is composed of audible sound arranged in such as a way that conveys meaning or value.\nCopyright generally applies to the original author or creator, that is, the person who first turned an idea into a physical form of creative material. Copyright is not awarded to the person who came up with an idea; it is awarded to the person who created a physical representation of that idea.\nCopyright law and trademark law\nCopyright laws do not apply to brand materials, such as names or logos. Commercial materials such as these often fall under the protection of other intellectual property instruments, such as trademark law.\nEntitlements under copyright\nCreators are entitled certain exclusive rights to their work under once they have established copyright. Such rights are laid out under section 31 of the Commonwealth Copyright Act 1968. For example, content creators have the exclusive right to:\nPhysically reproduce their work;\nPublish their work;\nPublically perform their work;\nPublically communicate their work;\nMake any adaptations of their work.\nThese rights may differ slightly depending on the type of copyrighted material, for example, an artist has slightly different rights than a writer.\nNegative copyright rights\nA negative copyright right may be defined as a protection afforded to an author, which prevents the labour of that author being appropriated by another entity. Specifically, it is not the idea created by the author that is protected, but the expression of that idea (the text written by the author).\nMoral rights are enforced through the Commonwealth Copyright Amendment (Moral Rights) Act 2000. Under the Act, moral rights are awarded to authors of film, literary, dramatic or artistic works. Moral rights generally relate to the status of authorship, and protecting that status for the legitimate author. For example, under the Act, such creators have the moral right to have things they have authored attributed to them. They also have the right to ensure that their works are not falsely attributed to others.\nEstablishing copyright\nCopyright protection in Australia is automatic. There is no application or approval process. As long as a creator is able to demonstrate that they are indeed the first person to have created that work, they are protected by copyright. The following conditions must be met for an author to be eligible for copyright protection in Australia:\nThe person must be an Australian citizen, protected person, person who resides in Australia for work purposes, or body corporate incorporated by state or commonwealth law;\nThe work must be been first published or created in Australia.\nEstablishing copyright infringement\nFor copyright infringement to have occurred there must have been substantial reproduction/copying of the original work. This may be proven by demonstrating that the offending reproduction is sufficiently similar to the original work to constitute an infringement of the creator\u2019s rights.\nUnder some circumstances, copyrighted material may be used by other parties for specific and fair purposes. Such purposes include satire, research, review, news reporting, etc. It can be difficult to prove whether or not such use may constitute fair dealing/lawful use or not. It may be best to hire a lawyer to assist you if your copyrighted material is being used under a claim of fair dealing to ensure that your intellectual property interests are protected. Factors that contribute to whether unapproved use constitutes fair dealing or not include:\nWhether or not the copyright owner was acknowledged in the use of the content;\nThe proportion of copyrighted material used in the content;\nWhether or not the copyrighted material was used to make a profit without license to do so.\nOther circumstance-specific factors influence what constitutes fair dealing, which is why legal advice may be required when deciding whether or not action is required.\nThe following circumstances are examples of situations where reproduction of a text does not constitute copyright infringement:\nReproduction for use in judicial proceedings;\nReproducing content in a physical form for personal or private use;\nReproducing content for the purpose of formal and accredited education;\nReproduction for the purpose criticism, study, review, or parody;\nA temporary reproduction used during communication that demonstrates a technical process;\nReproduction of labels designed for a chemical product; and\nWhen reproduction of the content can be proven to be in the public interest.\nContact LGM Advisors today on (03) 9832 0608 or by email at marketing@lgmadvisors.com.au to discuss a free no obligation consultation with an expert copyright lawyers Melbourne.",

        "raw_content": "Intellectual property law is complicated and can often lead to millions of dollars in settlements and attorney fees, as well a lengthy trial. In protecting your company, proprietary information and brand it is important to consult with and develop and intellectual property strategy for your company and ideas.\nWho Should be Concerned about Intellectual Property\nThe real answer to this question can be everybody. Intellectual property can affect everyone. However, it is the determination of loss or damage due to Intellectual Property violations that will most affect your ability to win a case. However, while everyone has the potential to be concerned about intellectual property there are three types of people who may be most affected.\nCreative employees: Writers, artists, designers and anyone else whose job it is to create creative works should understand that their employer owns the rights to their work as long as the work was done under employment. While this does not apply to independent contractors, it is recommended that an independent contractor and their employer discuss intellectual property rights.\nHigh-tech employees: Engineers and techs frequently move from one company to another; often a competitor. This often leads to intellectual property law violations, or boundary concerns.\nEmployers: There can be concern over who owns the rights to design or creative works. As an employer it is important to know if your employee has created the work under your employment, or their own.\nWhat is Intellectual Property:\nIntellectual Property (IP) is protecting the rights to creation of the mind such as new or original inventions, literary and other artistic works, designs, symbols, and brands. Intellectual property can be both, tangible or intangible.\nIn order for intellectual property laws to be utilized by someone the idea needs to be documented, specific, feasible, and documented that the idea or creation was yours.\nWhat is not Intellectual Property:\nHave you ever heard someone say, \u201cI invented the internet,\u201d or \u201cI came up with the idea for the Smart phone,\u201d and then follow with a claim for the money made from that idea? It is likely you have, however, without proper documentation that the person actually developed the concept they will not get very far in claiming their stake at intellectual property theft.\nIt is a common misunderstanding that all ideas are under copyright, without having to put work or effort into making the idea come to fruition. The fact is that, \u201cAbstract ideas never committed to concrete form are not eligible for protection under intellectual property law.\u201d\nFor example, if you were to come up with an idea for a roller coaster that travels to the moon, that idea is not protected. However, if you develop a realistic engineering design of a roller coaster that can travel to the moon, determine its capacities and capabilities, cost, and seek financing, your project may qualify under the intellectual property law.\nIntellectual property can be broken down into four types which can help determine if your idea would fall under the protection of intellectual property law.\nCopyright: Copyright protects creative arts. It gives the artist exclusive rights to reproduce, publicly display, perform, and create derivatives of their work. In addition, copyright enable the artist to financially gain from their work, and prohibit others from doing so without the IP artist\u2019s permission. Copyrights however protect how an idea is expressed, not the idea itself.\nTrademark: Protects the name of the company and any identifying marks that would easily allow consumers to recognize the company. Trademarks do not have to be registered as they are assumed intellectual property once they are being used.\nConfidential Information: Facts or information, typically controlled by a company, and is not in the public domain. The information is proprietary, that is a trade secret and/ or confidential.\nPatents: Protects an invention from being made, sold, or used, for a period of time. Unlike trademarks, a patent is not considered patented unless it has been applied for an approved by IP Australia\u2019s patent office.\nHow to Protect Yourself after discovering potential Intellectual Property Theft\nIntellectual property law is a complex and highly valuable as it protects your ideas, practices, and business. The law protects millions of business owners and artists throughout Australia.\nYou may choose to protect yourself by consulting with an Intellectual Property lawyer to develop a protection strategy moving forward. However, if an individual, or a company suspects someone has broken the Intellectual Property laws it is important to take steps to protect yourself or your company.\nContact an experienced Intellectual Property Lawyer, knowledgeable in international and local laws and judicial systems today on +61 3 9832 0608 or by email at marketing@lgmadvisors.com.au.",

This ensures that our customers get their packages delivered when we say that they will be there, not three days late because it happened to be a holiday.\nSometimes, Lightning Messenger in Mission Viejo, California gets business customers who need to store and ship out a large number of packages on a regular basis. So we have come up with some special shipping solutions just for them. We can pick up all of the packages of products that they have, store them in one of our local warehouses, and ship them out to wherever they need to go. This makes the distribution of their products much easier and more efficient because Messenger Express takes care of all of the inventory tracking of the packages for them. Businesses that want to learn more about this service can give us a call. We can even arrange for them to get a free quote.\nAt Messenger Express in Mission Viejo, California, we don't forget about our residential customers just because they often ship a smaller amount of packages than businesses do. We ship packages from one residential area to another and from residential areas to businesses too. And no package is too small to have us deliver it. To encourage more residential customers to use Lightning Express courier service, we offer a special discount to all of them when they try out our services for the first time.",

        "raw_content": "Boston Marathon derailed thread\nRe: Boston Marathon derailed thread\nCongratulations guys. You've taken what should be a discussion of a national tragedy and turned it into petty partisan bickering. Nice work. Honestly, if this is how you conduct yourselves in your daily lives, I feel sorry for those who have to deal with you.\nThis should be the thread where I'd want share the story of the three people I know who ran the race, or how great full I am that my niece had a band camp this weekend forcing my brother not to be able to run, but instead its a thread about nothing that had to do with this tragedy.\nNice...way to spread your own hate, without any conscience for those affected by this.\nWhy talk about \"victims\" that never happened? Why talk about all of the \"what ifs\" and \"what could have beens\"? Why use this as a means to effect our lives at all? That's what whomever did this wanted.\nThis is LESS tragic than the shooting at the Detroit fireworks a couple of years ago, and that barely made national news, and it was an afterthought. Don't fall for the \"victimization\" of this country. It's a great Nation and we're above petty bullshit like this.\nFor a guy who JUST SAID he hasnt watched a bit of news on the subject, you sure sound like you are an authority on this \"victimless incident\".\nI guess those people who were injured or died are just whiney pussies eh? I mean, they're just peaceful civilians, why even TRY to hear their stories. the dumb bastards shouldnt even have been there in the first place, it was a monday, dont they have jobs? right?\nYou are smarter than this WJB...please start using your brain instead of your rectum when expressing yourself.\nand I'd like to add...for all the bitching and complaining about how the other side is a bunch of douchbags for putting an agenda above the people, what does that make you when you do it as well? (Hint.....it's a bag of something that smells an awful lot like vinegar)\nI think you missed the point Joe. You said this is a thread where you would want to talk about three people you know who ran the race. Were THEY injured or killed? If not, then they are not victims and as such there is nothing to talk about regarding them. I'm sure many people know someone who either ran the race, attended the race or thought about running the race but weren't affected by this.\nAnd, while I don't exactly agree with how he is expressing it, wjb has a point about declaring this a \"national tragedy\". If this was a terrorist act, you have to ask yourself what the motive was? Just to kill people? No. Terrorists are interested in one thing, and that's changing the American way of life. Whether it has to do with cyber attacks, or physical attacks, or psychological attacks, they are interested solely in reducing our freedoms and imposing their wierd beliefs on us. If people start going on and on about this, as they have with the Sandy Hook incident, it moves beyond being just a tragic event and goes into becoming a political hot topic where someone in power feels the need to 'do something' that will basically do nothing to stop an incident like this in the future, but will limit our freedoms or somehow affect our way of life.\nSh*t happens. Trying to prevent each and every bad thing that occurs in the nation or the world just isn't a realistic goal.\nI hear ya M2k....\nI understand that much of this will be exagerated and drawn out, but that is NO EXCUSE to show no empathy at all. We are no better than the DB's we complain about when we take every oportunity to push an agenda, over trying to understand our fellow americans and what they are going through.\nto be honest watching the first reactions of many people, im more than a little concerned about teh reactions from this incident. What laws are going to be attempted to change, what racial tensions are going to be revived (even though we have NO IDEA who did this, many americans are set thats its the arabs again)\nThis was a horrible thing that happened, and if your first reaction has nothing to do with concern for your fellow americans, how can you DARE count yourself amonst them?\nI get where he is going....but to show such a lack of class in getting there.....makes him part of the problem, not any kind of solution. How different would his reaction be if his wife was in that race? but since it's no one he knows, its ALL AGENDA. it makes him as bad as the \"libtards\" (love that word) that he claims to hate.\nEmpathy is fine, but this over-pouring of ridiculousness of wearing shirts to \"commemorate\" this thing, all of the facebook banter, photoshopped \"memorials,\" and news coverage is DISTASTEFULLY over done. It gives way, WAY too much credit to this event.\nPeople are DYING to call themselves victims just because they \"knew someone in Boston that day.\"\nThe media and everyone buying into it are FEEDING this type of crap, yes crap. Do you think all of these school shootings and mass public \"events\" would be happening if they weren't glorified by the news outlets? Do you think there would have been a 2nd and even 3rd \"Columbine\" shooting, if the first one wasn't sensationalized? I don't.\nWe're glorifying this garbage, and MAKING ourselves victims. The \"threshold\" of what is considered a \"national tragedy\" is so low at this point, two deaths is now considered to be the bar. That's pathetic.\nThis is very similar to the CULTURE that crept into the Pistons with Rasheed crying about ticky-tack fouls to the point where we started crying about EVERY foul, such that the refs had a bias against us. That's what we're doing as a society. We're crying \"VICTIM\" and playing the victim card, and playing the role of the victim on a WORLD stage, over an event that should have been relatively inconsequential.\nok I get all that, but in the first 24 hours dont you think a little compassion might be in order? It was just happening and already you pushed your agenda.....to me thats JUST as sickening!\nwhen something bad happens the FIRST thing you are supposed to do is take care of those who need assistance...even if its just an ear to listen. you DONT spout off about any little excuse you come across just to further your own damn agenda...then in the same breath complain that the other side is a DB for doing so.....do you not understand how morally bankrupt that is?\nI was sickened and disgusted with the whole Connecticut thing, but apparently that's the way of the World, or at least the \"way of the U.S.\" now... At least it is for one party, and as they say, \"if it's good for the goose, it's good for the gander.\"\nI'm sick of this one-sided marketing ploy and smear campaign from the left, where they get to politicize everything, but it's \"insensitive\" when it's not in their favor. Two hours after the event they were discussing gun control, two hours... For two weeks they talked about how the shooting was done with a \"high capacity AR-15\" until the coroner's report proved that all of the shootings were done with a low-caliber pistol, and the \"truth\" made its way out that the AR was actually left in the car, but again, that was a little blurb on the back page that got literally zero attention.\nI already outlined why it's wrong, and why it has to be done. This isn't a situation where one side can be \"right\" and \"better principled\" and not suffer from it. The \"news\" isn't about conveying the truth any longer, it's a marketing ploy of the left and it needs to be exposed as such.\nsee this is what I dont understand...if it sickens you to see others do it, why do it yourself?\nShouldn't you hold yourself to a higher standard than the people who disgust you? If for no other reason than principle alone?\nAgreed. This is almost like deja vu, as there's another poster that says and acts the same way....\nIt's almost as if some peeps have forgotten how to take the high road and move on. For whatever reason, it seems as though they have the need to be right or to not be wrong.\nI already addressed this. Do you guys read?\nExactly. People somehow justify their own poor behavior by pointing out that someone else did it first. I used to do that too, but then I grew beyond my adolescent years and stopped the immature bs.\nIf your only justification for doing something is because someone else does it, it's not a justification at all. It's an excuse. And it's pathetic.\nAgain, already addressed.\nI didn't want to soil the other thread by being \"political\" but what I want to share here is that the potential for these two to be Turks or Chechans, doesn't this reinforce the need for better, stricter immigration control, and border security?\nI'm reminded of the Roman empire who towards the end of its reign as the power figure, was having difficulties with the Barbarians. Instead of securing their borders they paid off the intruders.\nI have also been hearing and have yet to research a common Roman tactic for it's populace called \"Bread and Circus.\" What little I know at this point is that the Romans had 97 holidays throughout the year. Days in which the \"mob\" was given bread and entertainment (Colisseum) as a social program. The reason behind it was that a \"mob\" dependant upon the government for \"bread and circus\" was a \"mob\" easier controlled.\nNow fast forward 2000 years to modern day USA, and we have and advanced system of \"Bread and Circus\" called Welfare. Housing, food, medical care, utilities, income, phones all provided or subsidized by the government. The \"mob\" or common populace become dependant upon the government for those resources. Over time it becomes easier controlled, \"if you want this, you must do that\". It's pretty obvious to me what is developing, but what do I know I'm just an intolerant, Right Wing Born Again Christian.\nI don't think it's so much \"immigration control,\" but I've said for years that we should have people assimilate more (learn English better, learn about the Country, etc.) before we let them in.\nI mean, even if this was an \"immigrant\" we still have look at how he got in, etc.\nThis is a long post by a guy on Reddit talking about government waste. He claims to have worked for a government contractor for years, and he details the amount of waste in the system, particularly the military:\nhttp://www.reddit.com/r/Economics/comme ... ion_works/",

Converted to condos in 2004.\nOther: This is the oldest condo building in downtown. Originally built and operated as a hotel from 1927 through the 1970's. It sat vacant for many years than reopened as apartments and finally converting to condos in 2004.\nThis building has one of the grandest lobbies in town. Even the individual units have a lot of the original finishes, such as recessed crown molding and window frames. Because the window technology is not up to date the view through the glass is often wavy and slightly distorted to the point you really don't want to look out for very long. The pool is very small and shaped like a whale so don't plan to swim any laps. The one-bedroom units do not have laundry inside the unit. The two bedrooms do have laundry inside the unit. There is a laundry room on each floor with one washer and one dryer to be shared by all the one-bedroom unit owners. The building does not have freight elevators and the existing elevators are small so don't plan on moving in oversized furniture, plus the front door to each condo is a little narrower than the typical door today, so you will have problems with big furniture unless you can take it apart to get it in.\nLike the most: Living in a beautiful historic downtown landmark building.\nLike the least: Past HOA and the legal challenges they went through regarding the building and proposed construction adjacent to the building. Special assessments in the past and fear of more in the future.\nOther comments: Currently holds the distinction of the lowest rated building in downtown, based on surveys I have mailed out.",

The curb appeal is what your home looks like from the street or walking up to it - essentially, your home's first impression. Buyers may make a snap judgement about your home when they first lay eyes on it, which can seriously affect their decision to buy - or not to buy. Here are our four key tips for maximizing your curb appeal during the fall months: 1. Keep on top of the leaves. While the leaves are changing colour and look beautiful on the threes, once they're on the ground they can look dirty and like extra clutter. This doesn't mean that you a...Read More\nProtecting Yourself From Condo Insurance Deductibles\nMany home and condo owners know that they need to have home or condo insurance. They also know that like with most different types of insurance policies, there could be a deductible if a claim is made. However what this really means is, if something happens (such as water damage from a leak in another unit) you'll have some surprised costs that could range into the thousands of dollars depending on your deductible. These deductibles can often be between $5,000 and $10,000, and these are repairs you\u2019ll have to partially pay for. This can be a pretty hefty and unexpected expense for any condo owner. In a recent article, Toronto Real Estate lawyer Mark Weisleder wrote about thi...Read More\nListing Inventory Still Lags Demand - Should Be A Busy Fall For The Toronto Real Estate Market\nSales were 14% above average for August with 7,600 houses and condominiums changing hands in all the districts. Condo townhouse and high-rise suite share of the market increased slightly to 33% with 2,503 units being sold. The August average sale price for all GTA homes came in at $546,303 \u2013 up 8.9% from 2013. The active listing inventory is one of the strongest indicators of how smooth or outrageous the market is going to be. We had an 11% decline in inventory for the month of August compared to historical numbers and lower by 4.8% from last year at this time. The sales-to-listings OR percent-chance-of-selling ratio is how we determine what type of market we\u2019re actuall...Read More\nWhat Is A Bully Offer In Toronto Real Estate?\nYou may have heard the term \"Bully Offer\" in many articles about the Toronto Real Estate Market. Bully offers are something that a seller does in order to make more money, but it can also come back to haunt them. It begins when sellers offer their listing and hold open houses, but won't look at any bids until a set date. This can also be termed as sellers holding-back offers until a specified date. If a buyer cannot wait until this date because the property is just that perfect, they place what is called a preemptive or \"bully\" offer. This offer usually comes with the catch that it must be accepted right away and forgoes any waiting until the set date. ...Read More\nToronto Average Selling Price Up By 9.4% Mid-August\nThe Toronto Real Estate Board has released its mid-August statistics for homes sold through the TorontoMLS Listings.

Detached homes had the highest rate of price growth year-over-year, up 12.3 per cent. Paul Etherington, the president of the Toronto Real Estate Board, said, \u201cSales were up strongly for all major home types across the GTA through the first two weeks of August. This means that many different types of buyers were active in the marketplace, including first time buyers purchasing newly listed condominiu...Read More\nToronto Experienced The Second-Highest Sales For July Ever!\nSales recorded through the Toronto MLS Listings in July 2014 were the second-highest for July on record.

Many of these tree lines directly intersect your property and your neighbour's property, and it can be difficult to come to a decision about a sick tree if both neighbours don't agree. It\u2019s a common question: Who owns a tree that\u2019s on the boundary of a property between neighbours? According to the law as per the Forestry Act, a tree that\u2019s directly on the boundary, meaning the trunk of the tree is growing on the boundary, is common property. If someone wants the tree removed, both neighbours must agree. The fact that the law does not define what is a trunk was brought up in the provincial Superior Court accor...Read More\nToronto Average Home Prices Increase 8% Mid-July 2014\nAccording to the latest from the Toronto Real Estate Board, the average selling price for homes sold through the TorontoMLS listings in the first two weeks of July, 2014, were up by 8 per cent compared to July of last year, bringing the average selling price for a Toronto home to $549,174. \u201cThere are two key takeaways from the July mid-month results,\u201d said Paul Etherington, Toronto Real Estate Board president. \u201cFirst, given the strong continuation of strong sales growth, it is clear that buyers are still attracted to affordable home ownership options in the GTA. Second, if new listings growth begins to outpace sales growth, we could start to see an improvement in th...Read More\nHighest Sales For June Since 2009 - Average Up 7.1% Year-Over-Year\nSales were 19% above average for June with 10,180 houses and condominiums changing hands in all the districts.

        "raw_content": "Loreto College \u203a About us \u203a Sporting Achievements\nThe college has an impressive range of sports facilities: sports pitches, sports hall, dance studio and a fitness suite with state of the art equipment, including VO2 max testing equipment.\nThe college also makes regular use of local leisure centres, the Amaechi Basketball Centre and international standard facilities around the city, such as Manchester Velodrome, National Squash and Tennis Centre and the Aquatics Centre. Team training sessions take place throughout the week so anyone can get involved. Some students involved in sports teams at Loreto are also studying sport at advanced level, other students get involved for the fun of it!\nLoreto Elite Athletic Development\n(LEAD) programme\nFor the last 12 years Loreto has been renowned for developing very talented basketballers, many of whom have gone on to American Universities and eventually to play professional basketball. Loreto now attracts elite sports performers from a wide variety of disciplines including track and road cycling, wheelchair basketball, cricket, athletics, swimming, water polo, gymnastics and motor sports. These elite students have chosen Loreto because of the combination of outstanding academic results and the high levels of staff experience in supporting sports performers at this level. In response to the ever growing number of elite performers joining the college, Loreto has developed its LEAD programme.\nThis specialised curriculum of support has brought together a variety of national governing bodies to develop a programme which is unique to Loreto College. The programme looks at developing the sports performers outside of their everyday competition. Students receive a specialist curriculum focusing on areas such as nutrition, psychology, attitude and lifestyle support. Students are guided by expert lecturers, who have experience of working with organisations such as UK Athletics, The Football Premier League and England Basketball, amongst many others.\nFormer student Clovis Asong, who benefited from the support of the programme whilst at Loreto, said:\n\u201cThe LEAD programme has really helped with my preseason preparation. As the number one UK 17-year-old 400 metre runner I had access to the best coaches and all the support from UK athletics. However the LEAD programme has opened my eyes to other areas to help improve my performance, including goal setting and the importance of mental imagery as part of my preparations for a race. The best part of the programme is that I share my own experience with other students from Loreto who are elite in their own sports.\u201d\nLoreto is recognised for its range of enrichment opportunities in Sport, Exercise and Fitness. Loreto offers all learners at the college opportunity to participate in a wide variety of sport and activities in outstanding facilities.\nGeorgina Brierley (Alumni)\nBasketball \u2013 Gina studied PE, Psychology and Theology & Ethics at Loreto and was a member of the Women\u2019s Basketball Academy. She has recently represented Great Britain at under 20 level at the European Championships in Israel, where GB finished in 8th position. Gina is currently in the second year of a full scholarship to study at St Leo University in Florida to continue her Basketball development.\nKaiyem Cleary (Now Alumni)\nBasketball \u2013 Kaiyem studied Chemistry, Physics and Media at Loreto and was a standout player in the Men\u2019s Basketball academy programme. He has represented England at U16 and U18 level and has just represented Great Britain in the U18 European Championships where they finished runners up, winning a silver medal and gaining promotion to Division A next year. Kaiyem is now attending Redemption Christian Academy in the USA, a Prep School where he will study and play Basketball full-time as he looks to gain a full scholarship to a Division 1 University next year.\nArinze Emeka-Anyakwo\nBasketball \u2013 Arinze is a current A Level student that is another member of our talented Basketball Academy. He was a member of the England U16 that competed in the European Championships in 2016 and is a current member of the England U17 squad. Arinze was recently selected to attend the Deng \u2018Top 50\u2019 Camp in London, for the best 50 U19 players in the UK. He was positioned as number 7 at the end of the camp by the selection panel which is a fantastic achievement. Arinze is hoping to gain a scholarship to the USA after he completes his A Levels.\nMichael Anumba\nBasketball \u2013 Michael is a member of the Men\u2019s Basketball Academy and a current A Level student. He has just been voted the Number 1 U19 player in the UK at the prestigious Deng \u2018Top 50\u2019 Camp. This exposure is going to serve Michael well as he plans to earn a full athletic scholarship to a Division 1 university in the USA after he completes his studies here at Loreto. Michael also plays a major role for the Manchester Magic Senior Men\u2019s team in NBL Division 1, which as an U18 player is quite unusual. He is a huge talent and has a bright future ahead of him. Michael also received an award last season when he was voted 2016-17 \u2018Defensive Player of the Year\u2019 in his Elite Academy Basketball League Conference for Loreto College.\nBasketball \u2013 Fiona is a current A Level student and member of our Girls Basketball Academy.

        "raw_content": "Loudoun County Celebrates Completion of Route 7/607 Interchange\nA ceremonial ribbon-cutting marked the official opening of the Route 7/Route 607 (Loudoun County Parkway) interchange today. Members of the Loudoun County Board of Supervisors and other dignitaries celebrated the completion of the first Loudoun County-funded interchange.\nThe new interchange includes four new ramps, a bridge over Route 7, an additional one-quarter of a mile section of Loudoun County Parkway, and numerous gas, water and communication utility relocations. The improvements eliminated the need for two light signals on Route 7 at the intersections of Loudoun County Parkway / Presidential and George Washington Boulevard / Richfield Way.\nAccording to a Loudoun County Government press release, Board of Supervisors Chairman Scott York applauded those who worked on the project and praised Loudoun County taxpayers for approving the sale of general obligation bonds in 2006 to finance the project.\n\"I want to thank the taxpayers of Loudoun County for supporting this interchange and paying for this interchange. Without their support, without their willingness to do that, this project would not have come to fruition today,\" York said.\nBroad Run District Supervisor Lori Waters called the interchange \"a monumental achievement,\" adding that it was first time that voters said they wanted to spend their local dollars to help solve transportation issues.\nLewis Rauch, Director of the Department of Construction and Waste Management, pointed out that the Countywide Transportation Plan calls for Route 7 to be a limited-access highway between Leesburg and Algonkian Parkway. The Route 607 (Loudoun County Parkway) interchange is a step towards that goal.\nConstruction on the Route 7/607 interchange, which began in January 2009, was completed ahead of schedule by Shirley Contracting Company, which was awarded the $23.3 million contract for the project in November 2008.\nA proffer design of the interchange was provided by Collin Equities. The Loudoun County Department of Construction and Waste Management managed the completion of the design and construction, which included utility coordination, design and easements with the ongoing design support from Dewberry and Davis.\nPosted by admin at 4:04 PM Labels: Route 7/Route 607 (Loudoun County Parkway) interchange",

        "raw_content": "Argyria is a multinational downtempo / chillout project. The band came together and started their collaboration back in 2009. The band includes the mastermind Zoran Zlatkovski, well known as Psychoz, Vivan Sanjana, known as DJ Jeto, and the famous Indian singer Sandhya Sanjana, known for her exotic voice.\nTrying to map or define their precise musical direction will not be an easy task, as they have managed to generate their own style and musical direction. This trio delivers a fusion of contemporary electronica and chillout, combining world music elements and Indian classical vocals and influences. Jeto and Zoran are responsible for the synthesizers, studio work and live instrumentation, while Sandhya Sanjana amazes with her vocals, and contributes with her big broad musical knowledge and experience meeting in one concept, bringing the oriental flavor. Their music combines spiritual diversity and harmony, with metaphoric lyrics following the old testimony and other sources, maintaining flow and balance of the new and the traditional.\nThe band recorded their first album Jai Shiva Shankar, as well as previous material in the same manner used on Paul McCartney and Michael Jackson's collaboration on 'The Girl is Mine'.. The band members have never actually shared the same studio while working on this album. Each did his role from the comfort of his studio, in his country. So actually they have not been physically together on the same time while working on some material for their debut album! Jai Shiva Shankar is the first seal from this fine and promising project, and is a hint of what this band is planning for the future..\nThe band has just came back from an extensive recording and rehearsal studio session in Los Angeles, and are currently working on new material and their live performance.",

        "title": "The Power of Zero: Transform Your Life Using Zero-Based Thinking \u2014 Mark Cancellieri",
        "raw_content": "Are you frustrated or dissatisfied with your life? Or do you just want to take your life to a whole new level? The first step in transforming your life is getting clear about exactly what it is that you want. One very effective way to do this is to apply zero-based thinking. The idea behind zero-based thinking is very simple. You start from zero. You work from a blank slate. Just like when you were a child, you get a \u201cdo over.\u201d\nStarting from scratch, you design your life from the ground up. Begin by questioning everything. And I do mean everything. The idea at this point isn\u2019t to commit yourself to anything. The goal is merely to gain a better understanding of what you really want. This is easier to do when you drop your concerns about your current situation. Zero-based thinking is powerful because it opens up a world of possibilities that we otherwise might not consider. It frees our minds to think without any sense of commitment or concerns resulting from our past actions or decisions.\nDon\u2019t Fall for the Sunk Cost Fallacy\nA \u201csunk cost\u201d is a past cost that has already been incurred and cannot be recovered. Sunk costs are completely irrelevant for decision making because our decisions cannot change the past. Rational decision making requires determining the course of action that will have the best results from this point forward. The problem is that it is very common for people to let sunk costs influence their decisions. This greater tendency to continue with a particular course of action once a person has made an investment of money, effort, or time is called the \u201csunk cost fallacy.\u201d Quite often the best decision requires abandoning our prior course of action even if we have already made a substantial investment. Unfortunately, the human need for consistency often causes us to continue down a path even if the best decision would be to change course. If you are serious about transforming your life, be aware of this tendency and avoid the sunk cost fallacy to the best of your ability.\nHere is an example to illustrate. Suppose you go out to a restaurant and buy a very nice but expensive dinner. You are enjoying your delicious meal, but the portions are huge. Pretty soon you are stuffed, but you keep eating. Now your stomach hurts, and you aren\u2019t even really enjoying the meal anymore, but you don\u2019t want to waste the food that you spent so much money on. You are letting the cost that you incurred to irrationally influence your decision about whether or not to continue eating. Since the cost is a sunk cost and cannot be changed, the rational course of action is to maximize your pleasure by no longer eating once you reach the point when it is not pleasurable.\nWhat does the sunk cost fallacy have to do with zero-based thinking? Zero-based thinking eliminates sunk costs from our thinking completely. It allows us to design our lives completely unburdened by our previous decisions.\nLet\u2019s look at ways we can apply zero-based thinking to our lives.\nApply Zero-Based Thinking to Your Finances\nApply zero-based budgeting. Start with the assumption that you are not currently spending any money, and consciously and carefully decide how you would really like to spend your money to maximize your enjoyment. In the long run, you will have the opportunity to increase your income, but at this point, you should probably work within your current income since income is pretty much fixed in the short run for most people. Your total available budget would be equal to your net pay less your desired savings. Forget about what you are currently spending. Try to identify the ideal. Get the most bang for your buck. Question everything. The idea isn\u2019t to live like a monk (unless that is what you really want!). The idea is to stop spending money on things that you don\u2019t truly value. By reducing the money you spend on things of little value to you, you will have more money to spend on things that you value highly and at the same time save for the future.\nApply Zero-Based Thinking to Your Possessions\nWhat if everything you owned was completely destroyed? If you had to start with nothing, what would you buy? This would provide you with an amazing opportunity to buy only things that you would really use and love. Possessions take up both physical space and mental space. How would it feel to create space in your life? Would it reduce your stress to have so few items that you actually know where everything is? Do you find minimalist homes aesthetically pleasing? I know that I do. Would you radically reduce your possessions and focus on getting a few high quality items that you will really love? Would you get rid of all your papers and digitize them instead? Would you scan your photos and get rid of the physical copies? There is no one right answer. The answers will be different for everyone. What do you really want?\nApply Zero-Based Thinking to Your Schedule\nWhat if you had no time commitments whatsoever? Start with a completely empty schedule. What if you could create a schedule that allows you to spend far more time in ways that you find enjoyable, exciting, and fulfilling? Would you create a schedule that isn\u2019t so jam packed with things to do? Would you create space to relax, to get into a state of \u201cflow,\u201d or to be more spontaneous? How much time would you dedicate to work? To travel? To spending time with your family or friends? When you are starting with an empty schedule and questioning everything, you don\u2019t have to fill every moment with activity. Don\u2019t get caught up in all of your current time commitments. Just brainstorm possibilities of how you would like to spend your time if you were given the opportunity to completely start over.\nApply Zero-Based Thinking to Your Relationships\nThe area of relationships can be a very difficult one because emotions often play a bigger role here than in other areas. It can be a real challenge to think objectively. Nevertheless, relationships play a huge role in our lives. Once again, start from zero. Knowing what you now know, ask yourself if you would choose to enter the relationships that you currently have. Are there people in your life that have a toxic effect on your happiness? Are there people who drag you down or are a bad influence on you? Are there people in your life that you love and make you happy and that you would like to spend more time with? Be brutally honest with yourself. Once again, at this point you aren\u2019t committing yourself to anything. You are just trying to get a better understanding of what you want or don\u2019t want.\nPut What You Have Learned into Action\nOnce you have gone through the process of zero-based thinking, the next step is to begin putting what you have learned into action. If you have possessions that you no longer use and love, begin to get rid of them. Sell them or give them away. Feel good that someone will benefit from them. If it just sits in your home collecting dust, it is such a tremendous waste. If you are concerned about sentimental value, could you take a photograph of it? If it is just the memories that you don\u2019t want to lose, a photograph may serve your purpose. Is there something that you already know you love to use but think an upgrade would be even better? Upgrading might be worthwhile. Do you have a gym membership that you don\u2019t use? Magazine subscriptions that you don\u2019t read? A cable or satellite TV package that you feel costs too much compared to the enjoyment it brings you? Begin to cancel them. If there are people that make you feel bad and are constantly bringing you down, stop interacting with them or at least try to minimize their impact. Constantly ask yourself what you can do to align your life more precisely with what you want, and begin to act on it.\nI have recently been spending a lot of time going through this zero-based thinking process myself, and I have found it to be very illuminating and exciting. I have a much clearer vision of what I want for my life. The process of zero-based thinking will be something that I will continue to revisit regularly as I make new distinctions and as my life evolves.\nThis blog is part of this process of putting zero-based thinking into action. I have also begun to eliminate many of my possessions. I have numerous ideas about things that I want to do or consider more carefully. I understand that the transformation won\u2019t happen instantly, although I will really be focusing on making substantial progress in 2010. Execution is the critical factor. It\u2019s not enough to have a dream. Without consistent action in the direction of my dream, it will be impossible to achieve. I will be sharing some of the things I\u2019m doing in future posts. Stay tuned.\nWhat are some other ways that you can apply zero-based thinking to your life?\nTagged as: Dreams and Goals, Happiness, Lifestyle Design, Success\nPrevious post: Put Your Dream into Action\nNext post: Decide to Be Decisive",

        "raw_content": "IBM to Validate Resiliency of Cloud Computing Infrastructures\nWill Consult With Businesses of All Sizes to Ensure Resiliency, Availability, Security; Drive Adoption of New Technology\nARMONK, NY--(Marketwire - November 24, 2008) - In a move that could spur the rise of the nascent computing model known as \"cloud,\" IBM (NYSE: IBM) today said it would introduce a program to validate the resiliency of any company delivering applications or services to clients in the cloud environment. As a result, customers can quickly and easily identify trustworthy providers that have passed a rigorous evaluation, enabling them to more quickly and confidently reap the business benefits of cloud services.\nCloud computing is a model for network-delivered services, in which the user sees only the service and does not view the implementation or infrastructure required for its delivery. The success to date of cloud services like storage, data protection and enterprise applications, has created a large influx of new providers. However, unpredictable performance and some high-profile downtime and recovery events with newer cloud services have created a challenge for customers evaluating the move to cloud.\nIBM's new \"Resilient Cloud Validation\" program will allow businesses who collaborate with IBM on a rigorous, consistent and proven program of benchmarking and design validation to use the IBM logo: \"Resilient Cloud\" when marketing their services.\nOperating the most data centers in the world, IBM has delivered remote technology services to clients for decades and has developed strict standards for service quality -- from infrastructure design to process excellence. Through its new Resilient Cloud Validation program, IBM's Business Continuity and Resiliency Services unit will build on its 40-year history of eliminating downtime in the most demanding business environments to help cloud service providers meet the highest standards of resiliency. In addition, IBM Research has developed end-to-end tools for assessment and discovery within a customer's configuration, modeling, ROI analysis, optimization and migration to a highly virtualized cloud environment.\nIBM announced today that Allscripts, a leader in delivering innovation technologies that improve the health of patients and the bottom line of physicians and other healthcare organizations, is the first company to begin the certification process. The designation is expected to enable Allscripts to enhance the current online data backup service it provides to better serve the needs of the 150,000 physicians who use the company's electronic health records, e-prescribing and practice management solutions. Next Spring, Allscripts will release a new online backup service, powered by IBM, which will provide a simple, easy to deploy remote data protection service, helping to ensure that sensitive patient information and medical documentation will be encrypted, securely stored away from the customer location, and easily recovered at a moment's notice.\n\"Our physician clients have come to expect that the clinical information stored by our software solutions is secure, private and available without interruption around the clock. By partnering with IBM, we're able to deliver an affordable, enterprise-class data protection and recovery service through the cloud, to even the smallest physician practices,\" said Paul Edge, Vice President of Solutions Management for Allscripts. \"We're dedicated to continuing to provide highly available cloud services to our clients, and IBM is a critical partner for us -- we look forward to continued work with IBM on the Resilient Cloud Proven program.\"\n\"Every cloud service provider has the same objective: provide an uninterrupted flow of information for their business,\" said Philippe Jarre, IBM General Manager of Business Continuity and Resiliency Services. \"Since these providers power other businesses, there is a 'network effect' of downtime, it's absolutely critical to build to the highest standards of resiliency.\"\nIBM's Business Continuity and Resiliency Services have 155 data centers around the globe, and offer a range of capabilities from advisory services to fully-managed resilient infrastructures. These teams are available today to evaluate current cloud architectures against resiliency best practices, identify, quantify, and prioritize gaps and risks, then provide the ongoing design assistance and management expertise to run more resilient infrastructures.\nThe IBM \"Resilient Cloud\" program will be available in early 2009.\nFor more information about IBM's cloud computing initiatives, please visit www.ibm.com/cloud\nJennifer Knecht\nIBM GTS Media Relations\nknechtj@us.ibm.com\nIBM Cloud Computing Media Relations\nkelly.sims@us.ibm.com",

PAUL, MN--(Marketwire - November 19, 2008) - St. Joseph's Hospital, member HealthEast Care System, and Minnesota's first hospital, has received two awards in the past week for its national benchmark level cardiovascular services.\nThe hospital was named a recipient of the 2008 Thomson Reuters 100 Top Hospitals Cardiovascular Benchmarks award. This distinction reflects achievement of the highest national performance levels for both clinical and managerial excellence. Eight different criteria that measure the use of evidence-based medicine, quality outcomes, high procedure volume, process of care, great efficiency and reasonable cost were analyzed. Four different conditions/procedures were the focus of this assessment: acute myocardial infarctions (heart attacks), heart failure, coronary artery bypass graft and percutaneous coronary intervention. This is the third time that the hospital has appeared in this Top 100 category.\nIn 2008, St. Joseph's Hospital was one of seven Minnesota hospitals overall and one of four Minnesota teaching hospitals without a cardiovascular residency program to receive this Cardiovascular Benchmarks award. There are 130 hospitals throughout the state; 970 hospitals' performances were examined nationwide.\nSt. Joseph's Hospital also received the American College of Cardiology Foundation's NCDR ACTION Registry-GWTG Silver Performance Achievement Award for 2008 -- one of only 93 hospitals nationwide to do so. The award recognizes St. Joseph's commitment to, and success in, implementing a higher standard of care for heart attack patients, and signifies that it has reached an aggressive goal of treating coronary artery disease patients with 85 percent compliance to core standard levels of care outlined by the American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association clinical guidelines and recommendations.\nTo receive the ACTION Registry-GWTG Silver Performance Achievement Award, St. Joseph's Hospital consistently followed the treatment guidelines in ACTION Registry-GWTG for 12 consecutive months. These include aggressive use of medications like cholesterol-lowering drugs, beta-blockers, ACE inhibitors, aspirin, and anticoagulants in the hospital.\nSara Criger, CEO, St. Joseph's Hospital, said, \"Heart disease remains a significant health care challenge in communities nationwide. St. Joseph's Hospital has invested in both the latest technology and expert physician and nursing staffs so we can provide the highest standard of evidence-based, compassionate patient care. Our goals are simple: improve outcomes, reduce long-term complications, and allow individuals to return to the highest possible quality of life.\"\nSt. Joseph's Hospital is a member of the HealthEast Care System, a community-focused, non-profit health care system that provides innovative technology, compassionate care, and a full spectrum of family health services. HealthEast includes Bethesda Hospital, St. John's Hospital, St. Joseph's Hospital and Woodwinds Health Campus as well as outpatient services, clinics, pharmacies, home care, and transportation services.

        "raw_content": "June 5, 2018 HVAC Products\nSummer is only a few weeks away and many homeowners are now preparing for the inevitable \u2014 the sweltering heat and the need to run that air conditioner round the clock.\nHowever, if you have an older unit, you may not get the cooling needed to keep everyone in your home comfortable. That\u2019s because older air conditioners tend to lose their efficiency and cost more to operate. As your AC unit is nearing the end of its life, it tends to work harder in an attempt to provide the same level of comfort. This is particularly the case for air conditioners that do not receive regular professional maintenance. Also, older cooling systems are likely to fail due to a heavier workload. The problem is that the older the air conditioner, the harder it is to find replacement parts.\nTo avoid a steady increase in your cooling bills, you may want to consider getting a new air conditioner instead of having your old one perpetually repaired. This investment may involve a larger upfront cost, but you will be reimbursed when you notice a significant reduction in your monthly utility bills.\nMarsh Heating and Air Conditioning is a leading HVAC company in Coon Rapids MN that offers innovative air conditioners designed by Lennox, one of the best in the industry.\nSigns You Need a New Air Conditioner\nIn addition to age, there are other factors to consider when deciding on getting a new cooling system.\nOlder air conditioners usually require R-22 refrigerant, which is known to have negative effects to the environment. If your existing air conditioner still uses this refrigerant, you may need to look for a new one. That\u2019s because the price of R-22 has significantly increased in recent years. Also, the production of this refrigerant will be stopped by 2020.\nAs stated above, older air conditioners need to work harder to meet your desired comfort levels. Not only does this cause a steady rise in your monthly utility bills, certain components are also highly likely to fail and would require replacement or repair.\nA new air conditioner is more energy efficient than your existing unit. It costs less to operate, not to mention its minimal impact on the environment. In addition, many states offer tax credits to homeowners who purchase high-efficiency air HVAC systems. Therefore, a new unit makes more sense since it can save you money on monthly bills and tax incentives.\nHumidity levels can significantly affect how the air in your home feels. It can make the air feel up to 8 degrees warmer than the actual temperature. By working with the Humiditrol\u00ae whole-home dehumidification system, the XC21 can preserve your comfort in every way.\nThe XC21 utilizes our SilentComfort\u2122 technology to reduce operating noise, making it the quietest multi-stage air conditioner you can buy. Even when installed outside a bedroom window, it lets you rest peacefully.\nBecause it\u2019s solar ready, the XC21 can be easily combined with solar roof modules in a SunSource\u00aeHome Energy System. This means it can use free energy from the sun to keep your home cool.\nThe XC21 is listed in the GreenSpec\u00ae Directory, a leading resource of environmentally responsible products.\nIf you are considering having this product installed in your home, call our experts at Marsh Heating and Air Conditioning. Not only are we authorized to sell, install, and repair Lennox air conditioners, we are also a Lennox Premier Dealer, a distinction given to HVAC contractors that value outstanding workmanship and customer service.\nCall us for your Blaine heating and air conditioning needs.",

I could not have had better support, from the excellent administration staff through to individual course leaders/lecturers.\nThis qualification was the catalyst for me breaking into the senior nursing ranks in Australia.\nI completed this study after having moved from New Zealand to Australia. Whilst the New Zealand and Australian health care systems have much in common, there are numerous practice, environmental and cultural differences.\nI thought it was going to be a major challenge to interpret my learnings into the Australian context. Turns out this was achieved with minimum effort. This ease of transition reflects the high-quality and standard of Massey\u2019s course material and support systems.\nMoving career focus from clinical leadership/management role to a formal managerial/leadership role within health requires a differing set of competencies.\nFor the first you must have a much broader strategic knowledge base than that of human, fiscal and material management. The second requires an understanding of the national and international constraints within which health care work is undertaken.\nYou must also be able to contextualise this knowledge into the day-to-day operations of your respective area of practice and expertise. The Postgraduate Diploma in Health Service Management taught me all these essential skills.\nThis is my second senior nursing role since moving to Australia. I am currently the professional nursing-lead for the Aged Care, Transitional Community Care and Palliative Care services for Gold Coast Hospital and Health Services. My portfolio covers three hospitals and associated community services.\nIt\u2019s not easy to study at this level \u2013 but it\u2019s not meant to be.

        "raw_content": "Sherrif Mulhall House\nThe front door of Sheriff Mulhall's house gives a fair indication of the mixture of styles to be found within. Eclecticism had come to Liverpool, as to the rest of North America. The balance of the doorway is reflected in the symmetrical layout of rooms flanking the central hallway that runs through the house. And what a hallway it is, terminating in a graceful hanging staircase, the wall itself curved behind it. The two front rooms form a whole, running from one bay window to the other.\nQuatrefoils which give the front door a slightly ecclesiastical air are found again shaping the columnettes set between each window of the sitting room bays. A pair of marble mantlepieces, one black, one white, add a Victorian opulence to a handsome set of high ceilinged rooms, but to step down the hall to the dining room is to return to the late eighteenth century. There, on either side of the fireplace, are two elliptical arched recesses. The total effect is delightfully harmonious.\nThe house was the result of the Great Conflagration of September 1865. Liverpool suffered many fires throughout the nineteenth century, with only one fire engine to fight them, and it is something of a miracle that so many of her early dwellings have survived. John H. Mulhall's house was one of fourteen buildings to be levelled by the flames. The Transcript's account is an exciting one. A more sober account the following month reported that to obtain accommodation in Liverpool \"is now an utter impossibility\".\nHouse plans for the Morton house near Milton are said to have been lent to John Mulhall in order to get a roof over his family's heads more quickly. If so, the plans were very freely adapted. D.C. Mulhall, who later became High Sheriff of Queens County, was the first child born in the house, though it could only have been roughly finished in 1866.\nWhen it was completely finished, an ornate railing crowned the highest point of the roof, and a verandah effectively screened the first floor of the house. Later, the verandah was removed. Stylized anthemion trim was then revealed over the windows to add yet another element to the design of the house.",

        "title": "Simply Me: Hard or Soft Water: which is better for my health?",
        "raw_content": "Hard or Soft Water: which is better for my health?\nIn some areas of the country, the water supply is more abrasive than others because it has picked us calcium and magnesium minerals from the environment before it reaches our taps. This is known as hard water.\nThough this is the leading cause of limescale, at present there are no recognised health disadvantages of having a hard water supply. In fact, some people believe the opposite.\nIs a soft water supply harmful?\nSome people choose to install a water softening system in their home, which essentially removes the abrasive minerals form the water supply using a process known as \u2018ion exchange\u2019. But in recent years, soft water has come under scrutiny.\nWhen water is softened artificially, water softener salt is added to trigger the ion-exchange process by which the calcium and magnesium minerals are replaced before they reach our taps. This has triggered concern amongst critics that the extra salt could cause harmful side effects, such as heightened blood pressure. So is there any merit to this argument?\nWell, the water softening systems uses an ion-exchange process to replace salts containing calcium and magnesium minerals with \u2018clean\u2019 sodium ions. Therefore very little additional salt is added.\nIn actual fact, an 8-ounce glass of softened water contains just under 12.5 milligrams of sodium. To put this into perspective, the amount of sodium in:\nAn 8-ounce glass of Coca-Cola is 30 milligrams, and;\nA typical slice of bread is between 80 and 230 milligrams\nIn Western cultures, the recommended intake of sodium is 6g per day, so the levels typical of a glass of softened water are extremely unlikely to have any effect at all.\nAre there any benefits of hard water?\nSome people worry that by softening their water supply, they\u2019re missing out on key nutrients. This isn\u2019t the case; the calcium and magnesium minerals in hard water are actually in an inorganic form, which means that the body can\u2019t digest them like it would the minerals in food or dietary supplements.\nFurthermore, water hardness has been associated with reducing the risk of heart disease. However, it\u2019s generally argued that this effect is only very slight.\nOne particular study compared mortality rates in the north-eastern UK towns of Scunthorpe and Grimsby. Initially, both towns drank \u2018hard\u2019 water at 444 mg/L and experienced that same heart disease rates. However, when Scunthorpe softened its water to 100 mg/L, the town\u2019s cardiovascular deaths rate started to exceed Grimsby\u2019s within a few years.\nThat said, not all studies have observed this effect. The well-known risk factors, such as poor diet, physical inactivity, smoking and high alcohol intake should be taken much more seriously.\nIn summary, benefits that hard water does have over soft are actually quite inconsequential, especially when pitched against the financial and everyday advantages of a softer water supply, such significantly reduced energy bills, less cleaning time, no limescale and better hair and skin.\nAround 60% of the UK is affected by a hard water supply; to find out whether you might benefit from installing a water softening system, check your postcode here.\nThis was contributed by Laura Moulden on behalf of EcoWater Systems, leading manufacturers of water softening systems since 1925.\nLabels: commercial water softeners, domestic water softeners, drinking water filters, guest posts, water softener packages, water softener salt",

She's pretty darn cute, too, don't you think?...\nGatsby is the more social of the two. She's the one who likes to hang out near where we are sitting, and she's the one who is more likely to come sit with us for attention.

This includes citizens and noncitizens. On the form, the employer must verify the employment eligibility and identity documents presented by the employee and record the document information on the Form I-9. The list of acceptable documents can be found on the last page of the form.\nDo not file Form I-9 with U.S. Immigrations and Customs Enforcement (ICE) or USCIS. Form I-9 must be kept by the employer either for three years after the date of hire or for one year after employment is terminated, whichever is later. The form must be available for inspection by authorized U.S. Government officials (e.g., Department of Homeland Security, Department of Labor, Office of Special Counsel).\nU.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) announced that it has delayed by 60 days, until April 3, 2009, the implementation of an interim final rule entitled \u201cDocuments Acceptable for Employment Eligibility Verification\u201d published in the Federal Register on December 17, 2008. The rule streamlines the Employment Eligibility Verification (Form I-9) process. The delay is intended to provide the government with an opportunity for further consideration of the rule and also allows the public additional time to submit comments. A notice announcing this delay has been transmitted to the Federal Register and is scheduled for publication on February 3, 2009. In addition, USCIS has reopened the public comment period (which was to end on February 2, 2009) for 30 days until March 4, 2009.\n* Download I-9 (Rev. 06/05/07 N - only for use BEFORE April 3, 2009) (408KB PDF)\n* Download I-9 (REV. 02/02/09 N - Only for use On and AFTER April 3, 2009) (444KB PDF)\n* Download I-9 (Revisado en 6/5/07 N \u2013 para utilizarse s\u00f3lo ANTES del 3 de abril de 2009) (818KB PDF)\n* Download I-9 (Revisado en 02/02/09 N \u2013 para utilizarse s\u00f3lo EN y despu\u00e9s del 3 de abril de 2009) (443KB PDF)\nEmployers must complete a Form I-9 for all newly hired employees to verify their identity and authorization to work in the U.S. The interim final rule will amend regulations governing the types of acceptable identity and employment authorization documents that employees may present to their employers for completion of the Form I-9. Under the interim rule, employers will no longer be able to accept expired documents to verify employment authorization on the Form I-9.\nUSCIS Publishes Interim Final I-9 Rule; New I-9 Form\nThe interim final rule streamlining the employment eligibility verification (Form I-9) process that the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), announced it submitted to the Federal Register on December 12, 2008, has now been published in the Federal Register along with a copy of the proposed new I-9 form at 73 Fed. Reg. 76505 (Dec. 17, 2008).\nThe interim final rule amends 8 CFR \u00a7 274a.2 to change the term \u201celigibility\u201d to \u201cauthorization\u201d and, in subsection (b)(1)(v), narrows the list of acceptable identity documents and specifies that expired documents are not considered acceptable forms of identification.\nEmployers must complete a Form I-9 for all newly hired employees to verify their identity and authorization to work in the U.S. The list of approved documents that employees can present to verify their identity and employment authorization is divided into three sections: List A (8 CFR \u00a7 274a.2(b)(1)(v)(A)) documents verify identity and employment authorization, List B (8 CFR \u00a7 274a.2(b)(1)(v)(B)) documents verify identity only, and List C (8 CFR \u00a7 274a.2(b)(1)(v)(C)) documents verify employment authorization only. The interim final rule removes the terms \u201cunexpired\u201d and \u201cexpired\u201d from those documents currently listed in the regulations. Rather than modify each acceptable document with the term \u201cunexpired,\u201d the rule imposes a general requirement that all documents must be unexpired. USCIS invites comments on whether this prohibition on the use of expired documents for the Form I-9 should be modified to permit employers to accept List B identity documents that have expired within the last 90 days (or other limited time period) of the date when they are presented to the employer for the Form I-9.\nIn 8 CFR \u00a7 274a.2(b)(1)(v)(A)(3), the rule modifies the reference to temporary I-551 stamps on unexpired foreign passports to include pre-printed temporary I-551 notation on machine-readable immigrant visas (MRIVs); however, since the pre-printed notation is not included on Form I-94s, the rule does not make any changes to regulatory references to temporary I-551 stamps on Form I-94s.\nThe interim final rule eliminates Forms I-688, I-688A, and I-688B (temporary resident card and older versions of the employment authorization card/document) from List A, new 8 CFR \u00a7 274a.2(b)(1)(v)(A). USCIS no longer issues these cards, and all that were in circulation have expired. The rule also adds to List A of the Form I-9 in 8 CFR \u00a7 274a.2(b)(1)(v)(A) foreign passports containing specially-marked machine-readable visas and documentation for certain citizens of the Federated States of Micronesia (FSM) and the Republic of the Marshall Islands (RMI).\nIn addition, the rule updates the list of acceptable documents and receipts by including \u201cForm I-94A\u201d next to each reference to the Form I-94, Arrival-Departure Record, new 8 CFR \u00a7 274a.2(b)(1)(v)(A)(5) and (b)(1)(vi)(B) and (C). The Form I-94A is nearly identical to the Form I-94 except that all fields are computer-generated rather than being annotated by hand.\nThe rule replaces the current reference to the List C document \u201cSocial Security number card\u201d with the statutory term \u201cSocial Security account number card\u201d and revises the restrictions in the acceptability of social security account number cards to track the statutory language, new 8 CFR \u00a7 274a.2(b)(1)(v)(C)(1). The rule also corrects the incorrect reference to Forms FS-545 and DS-1350 as \u201cCertification of Birth Aboard\u201d to reflect that the FS-545 is correctly titled \u201cCertification of Birth\u201d and the DS-1350 is correctly titled \u201cCertification of Report of Birth,\u201d 8 CFR \u00a7 274a.2(b)(1)(v)(C)(2) and (3). Additionally, the rule replaces references to the former INS with \u201cDHS.\u201d\nIn implementing the regulatory changes being made by this rule, DHS is also revising the Form I-9 itself. Changes to the Form I-9, in addition to revisions to the list of acceptable documents, include:\n\u2022 in Section 1, making \u201ccitizen of the United States\u201d and \u201cnoncitizen national of the United States, as defined in 8 U.S.C. 1408\u201d two separate categories in the employee attestation part of the form\n\u2022 in Section 1, replacing \u201cAn alien authorized to work until __/__/__ (Alien # or Admission _____\u201d with \u201cAn alien authorized to work (A# or Admission #_____) until (expiration date, if applicable--month/day/year)__/__/__\u201d\n\u2022 in the form instructions, including a paragraph that clarifies when employers need to reverify certain employees to read as follows: \u201cNote that some employees may leave the expiration date blank if they are aliens whose work authorization does not expire (e.g., asylees, refugees, certain citizens of the Federated States of Micronesia or the Republic of the Marshall Islands). For such employees, reverification does not apply unless they choose to present in Section 2 evidence of employment authorization that contains an expiration date (e.g., Employment Authorization Document (Form I-766)).\u201d\nThe revised Form I-9 includes additional changes, such as revisions to the employee attestation section and the addition of the new U.S. passport card to List A.\nEmployers will have to use the revised Form I-9 for all new hires and to reverify any employee with expiring employment authorization beginning 45 days after publication in the Federal Register. The current version of the Form I-9 (dated June 5, 2007) will no longer be valid after that date.\nThe interim final rule is effective February 2, 2009. Written comments must reference Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Docket No. USCIS-2008-0001 and must be submitted on or before February 2, 2009, by:\n\u2022 using the federal eRulemaking Portal: http://www.regulations.gov\n\u2022 mailing paper, disk, or CD-ROM submissions to Chief, Regulatory Management Division, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, Department of Homeland Security, 111 Massachusetts Avenue, NW., Suite 3008, Washington, DC 20529-2210\n\u2022 using hand delivery/courier to U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, Department of Homeland Security, 111 Massachusetts Avenue, NW., Suite 3008, Washington, DC 20529-2210; contact phone number: (202) 272-8377\nCurrently, the first box in that section states: \u2018'A citizen or national of the United States.\u2019\u2018 USCIS states that separating those two groups will eliminate one difficulty that currently exists when prosecuting those who make false claims to U.S. citizenship. USCIS explains that noncitizen nationals of the U.S. are persons born in American Samoa as provided in INA \u00a7 308 [8 USCA \u00a7 1408]; certain former citizens of the former Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands who relinquished their U.S. citizenship acquired under INA \u00a7 301 of Pub. L. No. 94-241 (establishing the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands) by executing a declaration before an appropriate court that they intended to be noncitizen nationals rather than U.S. citizens; and certain children of noncitizen nationals born abroad, as provided by INA \u00a7 308. A definition of noncitizen national is added to the instructions to the Form I-9.\nForm I-9. The revised edition of Form I-9 is dated February 2, 2009, and must be used beginning on that date; the June 5, 2007 version of the form should be used until that time. Both versions of the form are available on USCIS' website.\nThis revised Form I-9 reflects the changes made by the interim final rule to streamline the employment eligibility verification (Form I-9) process, including the types of acceptable identity and employment authorization documents and receipts that employees may present to their employers for completion of the Form I-9. The following modifications to the form and its instructions supplement that discussion:\n\u2022 \"eligible\" has been changed to \"authorized\" throughout the form and its instructions\n\u2022 on page 1 of the instructions under the heading \"Section 1, Employee,\" USCIS has noted that, instead of being completed at the time of hire, this part of the form must be completed no later than the time of hire\n\u2022 also on page 1 of the instructions, USCIS has added a paragraph concerning noncitizen nationals of the U.S.\n\u2022 under the \"Section 2, Employer,\" heading on page 1 of the instructions, the agency has noted that (1) employers \"cannot specify which document(s) listed on the last page of Form I-9 employees present to establish identity and employment authorization\" as \"[e]mployees may present any List A document OR a combination of a List B and a List C document\"; (2) \"receipts showing that a person has applied for an initial grant of employment authorization, or for renewal of employment authorization, are not acceptable\" and (3) if photocopies of original documents presented by the employee are made, they must be made for all new hires\n\u2022 at the top of page 2 of the instructions, a reference to the USCIS Handbook for Employers (Form M-274) has been included as a source for more information\n\u2022 under the heading \"Section 3, Updating and Reverification\" on page 2 of the instructions, a note has been added that employers have the option of completing a new Form I-9 instead of section 3 for reverification purposes\n\u2022 in the USCIS Forms and Information section of the instructions on page 2, USCIS has added its website address and the phone number 1-888-464-2418 as a reference for information about Form I-9 and E-Verify\nLabels: Documents Acceptable for Employment Eligibility Verification, Employment Eligibility Verification, I-9",

Chen is a Product Manager at Kabam, a mobile gaming company that develops free-to-play games.\nKabam was selected for the organized job shadow event because of its focus on technology and innovation. \"It was an exciting event that allowed Austin, who's really interested in engineering, to speak with all departments at Kabam,\" said Chen. \"He was able to learn from engineers, product managers, and marketers by observing their day-to-day.\"\nFrom the first moment Van stepped into the company, the graduating senior was in awe.\n\"I thought visiting a gaming company would be cool,\" Van said. \"But when I got there and had the chance to look around, I was amazed. They have pretty much everything! There was a huge kitchen with fridges with all sorts of drinks and snacks. There was a mini gym, a recreation room and games everywhere.\"\nVan's interest in computer science solidified after the job shadow. The assortment of people he met and their varied daily tasks gave him a better picture of the industry as a whole. He also got some valuable guidance about the path to becoming an engineer.\n\"My future definitely involves reading a lot of books and writing lots of programs,\" said Van.\nBut study advice was hardly his only takeaway. Van was able to relate to the engineers in more ways than he imagined.\n\"My favorite thing about the job shadow was being able to talk to adults about the games I play,\" said Van. \"It was a very interesting experience because I was under the impression that only young kids or teenagers played games, and that adults usually shunned them!\"\nVan quickly learned: At Kabam, playing games is part of the job description.\nNewer PostThe Start of Senior Year\nOlder PostMinds Matter of San Francisco Overview Video",

        "raw_content": "a tentative itinerary for my European trip Oct. 22-Nov. 17\nI don't know for sure, but this is my general plan as of now for my upcoming trip to Europe:\nOct 22 -- fly to NY and stay with my cousin's son Jason, his wife Jessica, and their new baby Marcelo. They live in Long Island City, Queens, which isn't too far from JFK airport and I will be getting in late.\nOct. 23 -- I will visit with Jason and Jessica and baby Marcelo for a few hours, then travel down to Plainfield, NJ to visit with my friend Hubert and his Dominican wife Antonia. I'm the one who introduced them in Cabarete, Dominican Republic in August 2006, on the same trip that I met Andre in Santo Domingo.\nOct 24, Sunday -- I will take the train to Brooklyn to visit Andre's aunt Rosette, cousin Louloun and her daughter Yasmeen. It's also the birthday of Andre's half-sister Carleen who he's never met. She lives in Irvington, NJ about three hours away from NYC. She's hoping she can meet me in Brooklyn and celebrate her birthday altogether.\nThat night I fly to London, arriving in the morning. I have a couple of hours layover.\nOct 25 -- I fly from London to Hamburg, Germany. I will arrive in the late afternoon and hopefully will stay with my friend Petra, her husband and son Henri. I met Petra in Santa Cruz in the 1990s. She rented a room at my house. Maya and I visited them in Hamburg in 2004.\nOct. 26 is my German \"mother\" Mutti's 82nd birthday. I will travel early by train from Hamburg to Stemshorn, the village I lived in during the summer of 1974 as part of a student exchange program. My friend Tanja, a Spanish student of mine when she was living in Santa Cruz around 1999, will meet me in Stemshorn for Mutti's birthday. That's the only day that Tanja has free to visit. She lives about an hour away. She already called Mutti and verified that it's okay to join us on her birthday.\nOct. 27-28 I will stay in Stemshorn with my German \"family,\" visiting old friends and riding a bike around the countryside, maybe to Dummer See again which Maya enjoyed.\nOct. 29 I travel back to Hamburg, which is about an hour or two from Stemshorn. I will stay at Rebekka's house and visit with Rita and Alina, friends from Munich area who are coming up for Rebekka's 50th birthday. I first met Rita in 1989, recommended by Rebekka, before we were moms. Then Maya and I stayed with her and daughter Alina in 2005 on our way to the Sound of Music Tour in Salzburg, Austria.\nOct. 30 is Rebekka's huge 50th birthday party, which is the reason I decided to travel to Europe when it will be cold, gray and miserable. I'm not optimistic about the weather. Rebekka has invited 300 people. It should be crazy, with jugglers and musicians and all kinds of entertainment and activities.\nOct. 31 I will probably stay with Rebekka one more day. We might be cleaning up or she'll be hung over, or sleeping. I'm not sure, but I'm going a long way to see her so I will help her anyway I can to come down from such a high the day before. I will try not to think about Halloween and how much fun everyone is having in Santa Cruz on this day.\nNov. 1 and 2 (Days of the Dead in Mexico and many parts of California) I will be in Berlin, staying at Susanne's house, a friend I met in Santa Cruz in the early 1980s. Susanne and Beate came to Santa Cruz as part of their nursing studies and I befriended them at a feminism class at UCSC. Now they both are flight attendants for Lufthansa. Beate will meet us in Berlin to spend these days together, the three of us. Last time I was in Berlin it was 1989, just one month before the wall came down. I've seen photos of what's left of. It's been painted by artists as a monument to that crazy period of history when the city and the country were divided.\nNov. 3-Nov 17 I will travel to four new countries: Poland, Ukraine, Moldova (which I never heard of) and fly back from Romania. Some tips from my friend Steve who has made four trips to eastern Europe: Krakow, Poland and nearby Auschwitz nazi concentration camp...L'viv, Ukraine with its beautiful architecture and interesting cemetery. He spent 5 days there and could have stayed longer. He also recommends Odessa and Kiev, Ukraine but they're not directly on the route, so I may have to skip them this time. But I will see Brasov and Sighi Soara, where Dracula lived. Beautiful architecture again.\nSteve also recommended a great restaurant that sounds like Pusatahata (but looks completely different when written with the Cyrillic alphabet) which is like a buffet where you pick out your food. It's all good and cheap and they have them in several cities in eastern Europe. Not knowing the language, it's hard to order off a menu and can take a few hours to order, get your food, eat and pay, says Steve. He likes the Tatrus Mountains in Slovakia, but it will be too cold in November. Steve also suggests I print up a copy of the Cyrillic alphabet (used for Russian and Ukrainian) so I can read the signs, menus, train schedules, etc. It's like reading code. The words may be the same as in English, but the alphabet is very different. He learned it and can read Russian slowly.\nI asked Steve about Dracula's castle. He answered: \"There's one called Bran, a day-trip from Brasov, although he might not have really lived there. However, it is an authentic old castle and worth seeing none the less.\" It's on the list.\nNovember 17 I fly home from Romania. With the time differences in my favor, I will arrive on November 17 in San Francisco, three flights and many many hours later, exhausted, but happy, I hope.\nSo that's the plan as of today. I'm sure it will change.",

        "raw_content": "Study Says Interest in Hybrid and Electric Vehicles Rising\nA new survey by Consumer Reports, the American monthly published by Consumers Union, has found that despite recent reports of a decline in sales of hybrid and electric vehicles, interest in them is actually on the rise.\nAccording to the magazine, 39 percent of 1,713 new car buyers polled by Consumer Reports\u2019 National Research Centre said they are considering purchasing either a hybrid or an electric vehicle, with the majority of those shoppers \u2014 60 percent \u2014 considering a standard hybrid.\nBy comparison, only 14 percent of new car buyers said they are currently considering diesel-powered cars. Of those, the vast majority \u2014 57 percent \u2014 said they would use bio-diesel fuel.\nThe survey also found that 16 percent are interested in a hydrogen fuel-cell vehicle while 14 percent are interested in an electric car.\nStill, 94 percent find green cars in general lacking in some way, citing a high purchase price, inadequate energy infrastructure, and limited driving range as chief concerns.\nAmong the survey respondents, men strongly favour plug-in hybrids and electric cars while women see greater appeal in regular hybrids.\nOverall, 63 percent expect to get a significant increase in fuel economy, regardless of the type of vehicle they buy. Only 67 percent said they are considering a traditional gasoline engine in their next new-car purchase, which may reflect a growing optimism regarding the availability of competitive green cars.\nIn addition to hybrids and electric cars, a significant number of consumers also said they would consider other alternative fuels:\n\u2022 35 percent said they would consider a flexible-fuel vehicle, one that can run on either gasoline or E85, which is a mixture of 85 percent renewable ethanol and 15 percent gasoline.\n\u2022 19 percent said they would consider natural gas or propane\u2014a fuel resource that is abundant in North America. Currently, there are very few vehicles equipped to run on natural gas and the infrastructure is limited.\n\u2022 16 percent would consider a hydrogen fuel-cell vehicle. This, despite that fact that only a tiny number of fuel-cell cars are being leased to customers in selected regions, and no automakers have announced imminent plans to mass produce such cars.\nOf those surveyed consumers believed electric cars to be the \u201cgreenest\u201d vehicles, while the number one reason given for switching to a green car wasn\u2019t environmental concerns, but reducing dependence on foreign oil, with a 26 percent response rate compared to 21 percent.\nSOURCE: Renewable Energy Magazine\nPosted in Electric Vehicles, General News, Industry News |\n\u00ab Neil Young\u2019s Hybrid Car Set Warehouse Aflame\nOne in Five Honda Sales In Japan Will Be Hybrids by 2011 \u00bb",

Macleod\u2019s flowering followed an intensive apprenticeship on his local outdoor climbing gym of Dumbarton Rock. Dave became such a permanent feature of the place that he attracted the nickname \u2018Dumbie Dave\u2019. During his \u2018Dumbie phase\u2019, which began when he was 17, MacLeod solved some of Dumbarton\u2019s trickiest boulder problems. Micro-routes couldn\u2019t hold him for long though and, armed with his newly-honed technical skills he climbed the formerly top-rope only Craig\u2019s Wall at nearby Craigmore at the very hard grade of E7 6c. Next step was a trip south of the border to try out the English gritstone and at one point during his raids south did four E7s in one week. At the same time MacLeod achieved the second ascent of the impressive line of Dalriada (E8 6b) followed by Glen Nevis\u2019s Femme Fatale (E8, 6c) which had been unrepeated since 1984. The English raids continued to be productive, with Gom Jabber (E8 6c) at Gardom\u2019s Edge and Curbar\u2019s Moon Madness (E8 6c) succumbing to the Scot. The angle of trajectory of Macleod\u2019s ambition has continued to steepen and, following a full-time study of physiology at Glasgow Univesity, he has completed several very difficult first winter ascents in the Cairngorms and has worked on several extreme rock \u2018projects\u2019 throughout Scotland.\nFurther viewing: Cutting Loose (dir Nick Tarmey) Headwall productions\nD002 : The Pinnacle",

It was called Diasporas, Migration and Identities. Over a hundred university researchers worked with people from museums and galleries, public bodies, and voluntary and community organisations to investigate the impact of migration and diasporas on history, culture, religion, language, traditions and laws, the imagination, emotions and places. Their findings and insights lie behind the information and stories presented here.\nThe Director of the research programme was Professor Kim Knott. She has written the material for Moving People, Changing Places.\nPeople have always migrated, whether to fulfil their needs or in search of a better way of life. Their movements have had an impact on how they see themselves and their relations with others. Their journeys and new settlements have changed the places left behind as well as their new locations.\nSuch movements and changes have affected the consciousness, feelings and practices of migrants and their new neighbours. Memories of the past remain important for both groups. Thoughts about what lives were once like and how places used to be still linger, at the same time as new paths are being forged. This sense of the importance of both past and present, home and away can lead in creative directions and to new relationships. But it can also cause anxiety and animosity.\nThese innovations and challenges are experienced by all societies with dynamic and diverse populations. They are central for understanding migration, identities and diasporic communities and their cultures.\nKey concepts of migration, identities and diasporas are introduced and defined. How we face the challenges of living together as citizens in diverse societies is discussed.\nMigration histories looks at some major historical migrations and how they have helped shape the UK.\nLocations focuses on places of migration and multi-ethnic settlement and introduces the idea of transnationalism.\nIdentities and cultures looks at various aspects of culture and what they tell us about our own identities and the different people who make up the UK.",

This technical highlight showcases implementation strategies, results, lessons, and reflections on the way forward.\nCommunity Interventions to Improve Access to TB Services in Afghanistan\nAfghanistan has made remarkable improvements in health indicators since 2005. However, a wide range of barriers prevent rural communities in Afghanistan from accessing tuberculosis (TB) and other health services.\nInnovative Approaches Boost HIV Testing Rates\nMalawi has a population of 18 million, with an adult HIV prevalence of 10.6%. The country has made remarkable progress toward achieving the UNAIDS 90-90-90 goals, achieving the first goal remains a challenge. The Malawi HIV program estimated Malawi\u2019s progress on achieving the 90-90-90 goals at 88-78-86 by June 2017.\nIndex Case Testing: A Promising Strategy for Achieving HIV Epidemic Control\nMalawi adopted the 90-90-90 strategy as part of the National Strategic Plan to end HIV/AIDS by 2030 which calls for: identifying 90% of people living with HIV (PLHIV); initiating and retaining on antiretroviral therapy (ART) 90% of PLHIV identified; and achieving 90% viral suppression for ART patients.\nImproved Infrastructure Leads To Better Quality And And Availability Of Health Services\nMalawi is among the countries hardest hit by the HIV pandemic. The country has a national HIV prevalence rate of 10.6% of the adult population aged 15\u201364 years (12.8% women vs 8.2% in men). With 85% of Malawians living in rural areas, access to health services is difficult because of long distances, poverty, and other social factors.\n\ufffcFacility-Based Innovations Improve Linkage To HIV Treatment And Care\nHIV has been a global challenge over the past several decades, particularly in developing countries such as Malawi, where adult HIV prevalence is about 10.6%.\nStrong Health Systems Save Lives, Vol. 5, 2016\nTwelve Stories of How MSH Is Advancing Health around the World\nAdvancing Global Health Security: A Focus on Health Systems\nStrong and resilient health systems are essential for accelerating progress toward a world safe from the threat of infectious disease outbreaks. In countries with robust health systems, essential health services are delivered within the context of ongoing response activities, and outbreaks can be prevented or identified and contained quickly.\nAiming for the Three 90s: Strengthening Malawi's Response to HIV and AIDS\nThere are more than one million Malawians (HIV prevalence of 10.6%) living with HIV. Nearly 85% of people live in rural or hard-to-reach areas of the country and the sparsely located health facilities are unable to meet their needs.\nMSH Fast Facts\nIn 2015, MSH\u2019S projects reached more than 84.2m people worldwide.

Data from 15 focus group discussions conducted in 2016 among women aged 15\u201335 were used to examine awareness and perceptions of, and attitudes toward, emergency contraceptives. Emergency contraceptive pills have the potential to address gaps in the family planning method mix in the DRC. Assessing whether women have incomplete or erroneous information about family planning methods can provide better understanding of women's contraceptive choices in low-income countries.\nEstimating Road Traffic Injuries in Jinja District, Uganda, Using the Capture-recapture Method\nRoad traffic injuries (RTIs) are commonly under-reported in low- and-medium-income countries. This study aimed to estimate the number of RTIs and determine the magnitude of under-reporting by traffic police and hospital registries. The police registry captured 14.4% of the estimated number of RTIs and the hospitals captured 60.4%. The estimated number of RTIs was higher than reported by either the police or the hospitals alone. Neither the police nor the hospitals provided accurate data on RTIs, calling for the strengthening of both sources of data.\nBuilding coalitions can amplify stakeholder efforts to carry out effective AMR prevention and control strategies. We have developed and implemented an approach to help local stakeholders kick-start the coalition-building process. The five-step process is to (1) mobilise support, (2) understand the local situation, (3) develop an action plan, (4) implement the plan, and (5) monitor and evaluate. Our experience with the coalition-building approach in Ethiopia, Namibia, Zambia, and with the Ecumenical Pharmaceutical Network shows that coalitions can form in a variety of ways with many different stakeholders, including government, academia, and faith-based organisations, to organise actions to preserve the effectiveness of existing antimicrobials and contain AMR.\nThe global partnership fighting malaria has witnessed much success in the last 20 years. Malaria is no longer the leading cause of illness and death among children under five, yet multiple challenges remain in the fight. An estimated 445,000 deaths occurred in 2016, compared to 446,000 in 2015, and 91 percent of these deaths occur in Africa.\nUniversal Health Coverage and Non-Communicable Diseases: A Mutually Reinforcing Agenda\nManagement Sciences for Health serves on the steering group of The NCD Alliance, which has issued this polcy brief on universal health coverage and non-communicable diseases.\nOn the Road to UHC: Leave No One Behind\nA civil society organisation (CSO) perspective on how UHC can be reached by 2030 Universal Health Coverage 2030 (UHC2030) MSH is the secretariat for the Civil Society Engagement Mechanism of UHC2030, a global movement to build stronger health systems for universal health coverage.\nWe conducted a cross-sectional analysis of 33,744 mother\u2013infant pairs to estimate the use and outcomes of the Malawian programme for the prevention of mother-to-child transmission (MTCT) of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Most women used the Malawian programme for the prevention of MTCT. The risk of MTCT increased if any of the four main steps in the programme were missed.",

The video can be viewed at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zijkNh-mQi8\nSince its founding, Guberman-PMC has been a subject of defamatory attacks for its refusal to be part of what has been dubbed as an anti-competitive accreditation scheme promoted by the ANSI-ASQ National Accreditation Board (ANAB) and its sister organization International Accreditation Forum (IAF). Both ANAB and IAF have been reported to the FTC for collusion, fraud, and antitrust violations, see http://www.einpresswire.com/article/384402696/iaac-anab-iaf-and-nist-probed-for-crony-capitalism-accreditation-fraud-and-antitrust-violations\nGuberman said he declined the offer to be part of the ANAB and IAF accreditation scheme because his organization and other registration companies have been a target of personal attacks by ANAB/IAF supporters for deciding not to be part of its accreditation scheme.\n\"Guberman-PMC will not be intimated, nor will it allow itself to be overseen by China-led International Accreditation Forum (IAF).\" He added, \"Guberman-PMC prefers to work with registrars that see the value in competition and independence, such as those accredited by ABAC American Board of Accredited Certifications (http://www.aboac.org) which has proven to be a defender of fair competition, equal opportunity, and diversity in the ISO certification marketplace.\"\nDonald LaBelle, CEO of Manufacturing Partners, a trade association of custom manufacturers, machine shops, and industrial suppliers, said businesses should have the right to choose the certification and accreditation body of their choice, and not be forced into using organizations under the umbrella of the China influenced International Accreditation Forum (IAF). \"Competition is what improves quality, not restraining competition, it's about giving businesses a choice,\" said LaBelle.\nGuberman's team investigated the leadership of ANAB and IAF and discovered the organization was knowingly providing speaking engagements for a Christopher Paris in Tampa, Florida known to be misleading businesses certified by ANAB competitors. The individual was caught in a telemarketing sting calling on Guberman's customers and attempting to discredit the reputation of Guberman's company despite G-PMC Group being federally recognized and fully accredited in good standing by the American Board Of Accredited Certifications (ABAC).\nGuberman posted a video about the attacks on his company and family by ANAB/IAF propagandist Christopher Paris: http://dguberman.com/warning-about-oxebridge-quality-resources-and-its-owner-chris-paris/\nGuberman said he confirmed Randy Doughtery, the current Chairman of IAAC Inter-American Accreditation Cooperation, and previously the Vice President of ANAB and Chairman of the International Accreditation Forum (IAF) allowed speaking engagements for Mr. Paris despite various complaints on copyright violations and business defamation from those in Dougherty's own organization as well as other businesses. Guberman later learned from a independent source believed to be working with TAG 176 that Paris may be getting subsidized for his defamation activities to harm the reputation of those in competition with ANAB/IAF. See https://youtu.be/ebe-5cPIPq8\nGuberman, a potential candidate for U.S. Senate (http://www.darylguberman.com) said he has been in direct communication with President Trump's administration as well as the Federal Trade Commission's Bureau of Competition and a number of Congressmen and attorneys to push for an investigation on the organizations and individuals behind the accreditation scheme, specifically The ANSI-ASQ National Accreditation Board (ANAB) and its affiliated organization International Accreditation Forum (IAF).\nHenry Kroger, Media Relations\nAmerican Board of Accredited Certifications (ABAC)\n31st Floor, Manhattan,\ninfo@aboac.org\nhttp://www.aboac.org",

        "title": "Travel Tips: Couchsurfing 101: Hosting | NananaTravels",
        "raw_content": "Couchsurfing,org is fairly new but has more than 5 million Couchsurfers in more than 97,000 cities, with a new user signing up every 11 seconds. There have been many skepticism around the idea of couch surfing and relying on strangers and their kindness. It can be scary to use the site for the first time, especially if you are traveling and in a place unfamiliar. This is why dipping your toes into the world of couch surfing is important.\nAttending local CS events and meeting others who participate is a great way to start. Once you are comfortable with the idea, you can then start hosting where you feel more secure at your own home and start building your network of couchsurfers. I started my couch surfing experience with hosting as well and here are some tips to help you get started!\n1) Read requests carefully:\nI get an average of 5 requests per night. There are times when I get over 10 requests a day. especially during busy travel seasons. I can\u2019t say \u2018yes\u2019 to everyone unfortunately and this is why it\u2019s important to read through requests carefully to make sure that you host someone that fits your expectations. Couch requests should be more than a quick copy-and-paste that can be sent to anyone by anyone. It should be thoughtful and personalized to really outline why they want to stay with YOU and not Bob down the street.\n2) Take time to review their profile:\nOnce you have read through the requests and have picked a few that you might want to host, take time to go through their profile. It not only helps you to see if they are taking couch surfing seriously, it also allows you to see what they are like, whether you would get along and what others say about them. Read references that they have received and also given to others, look at photos, etc.\n3) Have a conversation with them before accepting:\nBefore accepting them right away, reply asking for more details such as what time they are arriving, until when they are leaving, what they are most interested in doing/seeing etc. This way you can\n4) Set expectations straight:\nThis is beneficial for the guests and you. Let them know in advance where they will be sleeping, what time you expect them to leave (if you don\u2019t want to leave keys with them), etc. If they are ok with your expectations, they will stay with you and have no complaints. I usually tell my guests that I have a short couch but also have an air mattress they can sleep on. I also don\u2019t have spare keys so on weekdays, I don\u2019t host unless people are ok with having to leave early in the morning with me.\n5) Meet them in public:\nWhen you first meet a guest, meet them in public. My apartment is not the easiest to get to and Boston public transportation system is not the best to navigate through when you first arrive in the city. So I offer to pick them up from the station. That way I can teach my guests how to go back and forth from the station to my apartment and also, I can meet them in a public space beforehand. It\u2019s safe since you are in public and the commute back to the apartment makes it a perfect time to get to know your guest a little more.\n6) Take them out to meet your friends or other CSers:\nTo make the first night less awkward, go out to a close by bar or gather some of your friends to hang out and invite your guest over. That way you don\u2019t have to cook, eat alone together, or just sit on the couch staring at each other.. It\u2019s also a great way to get to know your guest a bit more, share a couple of drinks and show them your \u2018life\u2019 since a lot of times people couch surf because they want to see those daily routines people have in other parts of the world.\nBut most importantly. Have fun! Hosting travelers is a great way to keep the travel spirit going when you can\u2019t travel. I\u2019ve met some amazing people through the network who I know I will see again in the near future.",

        "title": "1/21/04 EIIP Virtual Forum Transcript: Interoperability with Amateur Radio",
        "raw_content": "Interoperability with\nLloyd Colston\nSteve Ewald\nSupervisor, Field Organization/Public Service Team\nAvagene Moore: On behalf of the EIIP Virtual Forum, welcome! Amy Sebring, my partner/associate, and I are delighted to see you in our audience today.\nToday's topic is \"Interoperability with Amateur Radio Emergency Communications,\" a very timely subject. I believe you will find this a most informative discussion.\nNow, it is my pleasure to introduce our speakers for this session.\nLloyd Colston is the emergency manager in Mayes County Oklahoma. Lloyd came up from the ranks of the amateur radio community, trained as a storm spotter, Emergency Medical Technician, EMT instructor, emergency management volunteer, and EMA director. Lloyd knows today's subject - he is a licensed operator (KC5FM) and a member of a local radio club, the American Radio Relay League (ARRL), the Quarter Century Wireless Association, the Christian Amateur Radio Fellowship, a member of Navy-Marine Corp Military Affiliate Radio System where he serves as the South Area Public Affairs Officer, and a member of the board of advisors for the area SKYWARN group.\nSteve Ewald is the Supervisor of the ARRL Field Organization/Public Service Team at ARRL Headquarters in Newington, Connecticut. He has worked at the ARRL since 1982. His ham radio call sign is WV1X. Steve helps provide administrative support and guidance to the ARRL Field Organization and the volunteer ARRL \"Section Leaders\" across the country. He works and corresponds with participants in the ARRL-sponsored Amateur Radio Emergency Service (ARES) and the National Traffic System (NTS) and other radio amateurs that are involved in many facets of public service communications.\nWelcome, Lloyd and Steve! We appreciate you being here and look forward to your presentation.\nLloyd Colston: First, I\u0092d like to thank Avagene and Amy for inviting us to the Forum to discuss amateur radio. As we get started, perhaps we should give some definitions.\nLet\u0092s define \"Interoperability.\" Webster describes interoperable as ability of a system (as a weapons system) to use the parts or equipment of another system. Today, we hope to show you how to use parts of amateur radio\u0092s system to benefit and augment your own communications system(s).\nPerhaps an even better definition is from the Department of Defense Dictionary of Military and Associated Terms: The ability of systems, units, or forces to provide services to and accept services from other systems, units or forces and to use the services so exchanged to enable them to operate effectively together.\nSometimes interoperability comes in strange ways. For some folks, it means having a responder\u0092s list of cell phone and pager numbers. The FBI, ATF, Departments of Commerce, Transportation, and Defense are all on this sheet, along with the County sheriff, County Commissioner, ambulance, fire, and EMA. When you want to communicate with that resource, you look on your list for the resource you desire and call the number.\nOthers try to accomplish interoperability by tying all the radios that need to talk to one another together. If one channel is busy, imagine the confusion when three busy channels are tied together.\nUsing amateur radio, local emergency managers can achieve interoperability in a number of ways. Hams serving as \u0091shadows\u0092 to key personnel is one way. Having a ham radio in the Emergency Operations Center is another. Having a storm spotter group tied to SKYWARN and then to the National Weather Service is yet another.\nIn short, using hams for interoperable communication can result in a benefit to the local responder and to operate effectively together. The overhead on their normal communications channels can be reduced while getting the message through to the right folks. This helps insure the safety of the responder while moving the mission of recovery.\nSteve, would you tell us what the American Radio Relay League is, please?\nSteve Ewald: I\u0092d like to first echo thanks for those who have made this program possible.\nBy 1914, there were thousands of Amateur Radio operators--hams--in the United States. Hiram Percy Maxim, a leading Hartford, Connecticut, inventor and industrialist saw the need for an organization to band together this fledgling group of radio experimenters. In May 1914 he founded the American Radio Relay League (ARRL) to meet that need.\nThe American Radio Relay League, the League for short, is a not-for-profit organization that:\n- promotes interest in Amateur Radio communications and experimentation;\n- represents US radio amateurs in legislative matters; and\n- maintains fraternalism and a high standard of conduct among Amateur Radio operators.\nThe ham radio community and our membership come from all walks of life. Some are professional businessmen, doctors, lawyers, teachers, while others are mechanics, construction workers, and truck drivers.\nWith the advent of the technology itself, hams have been involved in the forefront of its use and improvement. RADAR, Single-Sideband telephony, Radio Teletype, moon bounce and amateur satellite communications have been developed or improved by amateur radio hobbyists.\nAt ARRL headquarters in the Hartford suburb of Newington, a staff of 120 helps serve the needs of members. ARRL is also International Secretariat for the International Amateur Radio Union, which is made up of similar societies in 150 countries around the world. ARRL publishes the monthly journal QST, as well as newsletters and many publications covering all aspects of Amateur Radio. Its headquarters station, W1AW, transmits bulletins of interest to radio amateurs and Morse code practice sessions.\nThe ARRL also coordinates an extensive field organization, which includes volunteers who provide technical information for radio amateurs and public-service activities such as we are discussing today. In addition, ARRL represents US amateurs with the Federal Communications Commission and other government agencies in the US and abroad.\nThe ARRL is a member of the National Volunteer Organizations Assisting Disasters http://www.nvoad.org/ and an affiliate with Citizen Corps http://www.citizencorps.gov/programs/affiliate.shtm .\nLloyd, could you tell the audience what amateur radio is?\nLloyd Colston: First, I'd like to mention that some of this information is replicated in the file on the EM Forum web site (http://www.emforum.org/pub/eiip/AROfinal.pdf). The file is a document from the National Memorial Institute for the Prevention of Terrorism (MIPT) Web page. I was privileged to be a part of the peer-review team for this document. The document has not been finalized for publication, however. We are able to use it today.\nAmateur Radio is a service licensed by the Federal Communications Commission. The license is granted to candidates who successfully pass an exam on radio theory and, for some licensees, the International Morse Code. The FCC defines the Amateur Radio Service as a voluntary noncommercial communication service, used by qualified persons of any age who are interested in radio technique with a personal aim and without pecuniary interest.\nThis \u0091without pecuniary interest\u0092 clause causes some consternation with some hams. For example, as an emergency manager, I can not use amateur radio as my primary communication means because I am paid to provide emergency management services. This will explain why I carry a cell phone. When one of the hams wants to talk EM, I have been known to call him on the phone.\nSome National Weather Service employees have come under scrutiny for using amateur radio services to talk to storm spotters. The work-around for example, is to get unpaid volunteers in the EOC to do your communication for you, or consider using the radio resources of the Military Affiliate Radio System or some other means outside the amateur radio bands.\nAlso, from the FCC database, as of Friday, there are 681,466 licensed radio amateurs. The League lists 157,000 members and 40,000 Amateur Radio Emergency Service members.\nFollowing that, there are over 6,000 members of MARS. Then there is the Radio Amateur Civil Emergency Service and SKYWARN. For the purpose of our discussion, the absence of figures is not important.\nRACES is a program that, in some jurisdictions, is not supported. In some places, the ARES and RACES groups are the same. In some places, ARES is all there is. A RACES member is under local control. In other words, a RACES Radio Officer would be subordinate to the emergency manager and the coordinator of the radio program.\nSKYWARN is comprised mostly of hams. However, each area may, like RACES, have an active program or not. Where the rubber meets the road though, like RACES, is at the local level.\nLater in the program we will try to explain how the local emergency manager can support a ham radio program. In the mean time, Steve, what is the Amateur Radio Emergency Service, please? How is it different from RACES?\nSteve Ewald: The Amateur Radio Emergency Service (ARES) consists of licensed amateurs who have voluntarily registered their qualifications and equipment for communications duty in the public service when disaster strikes. Every licensed amateur, regardless of membership in ARRL or any other local or national organization is eligible for membership in the ARES.\nThe only qualification, other than possession of an Amateur Radio license, is a sincere desire to serve. Because ARES is an amateur service, only amateurs are eligible for membership. The possession of emergency-powered equipment is desirable, but is not a requirement for membership.\nThere are four levels of ARES organization--national, section, district and local. National emergency coordination at ARRL Headquarters is under the supervision of the ARRL Field and Educational Services Manager, who is responsible for advising all ARES officials regarding their problems, maintaining contact with federal government and other national officials concerned with amateur emergency communications potential, and in general with carrying out the League's policies regarding emergency communications.\nAt the section level, the Section Emergency Coordinator is appointed by the Section Manager (who is elected by the ARRL members in his or her section) and works under his/her supervision. In most sections, the SM delegates to the SEC the administration of the section emergency plan and the authority to appoint District and local ECs.\nSome of the ARRL sections with capable SECs are well organized. A few have scarcely any organization at all. It depends almost entirely on whom the section members have put into office as SM and whom he/she has appointed as SEC.\nIt is at the local level where most of the real emergency organizing gets accomplished, because this is the level at which most emergencies occur and the level at which ARES leaders make direct contact with the ARES member-volunteers and with officials of the agencies to be served. The local EC is therefore the key contact in the ARES. The EC is appointed by the SEC, usually on the recommendation of the DEC. Depending on how the SEC has set up the section for administrative purposes, the EC may have jurisdiction over a small community or a large city, an entire county or even a group of counties. Whatever jurisdiction is assigned, the EC is in charge of all ARES activities in his area, not just one interest group, one agency, one club or one band. Please see http://www.arrl.org/FandES/field/pscm/sec1-ch1.html for a more complete explanation of the program.\nRACES and ARES often function in the same jurisdiction. As you have already mentioned, RACES operates under the local control of the emergency management program. ARES operates in support of EMA and other served agencies, through the League\u0092s partnership in the Voluntary Organizations Serving in Disasters.\nContrasting RACES to ARES, RACES is allowed one hour per week of drill time. ARES is not restricted to time. RACES is restricted to certain amateur radio frequencies within the amateur radio bands. ARES is not restricted to a specific frequency.\nRACES, because local governments may have their rules related to the use of minors, generally limit participation by those under the age of 18. This is also true of MARS. ARES may allow participation by younger hams. Those are the big differences. Lloyd, what is MARS and how is it different from ARES?\nLloyd Colston: MARS is the Military Affiliate Radio System. Unlike ARES, MARS operates on radio frequencies located outside the ham bands. These are government frequencies assigned to military support. http://www.asc.army.mil/mars/news/terrorists.htm tells a little about how MARS responded to WTC II and the Pentagon events. The National Weather Service, in one area, was able to obtain a MARS station for their facility. There\u0092s another example of interoperability.\nMARS members are trained in Emergency Communication. ARES, though the training is available, has not achieved 100% training. The only untrained members in MARS are the \u0091new recruits.\u0092\nFor the local director, one benefit of MARS is they are reporting to Homeland Security through the Director of Military Support in the Department of Defense chain of command. FEMA has radio link to Homeland Security called SHARES, SHAred RESources, a HF radio network described at http://www.ncs.gov .\nThus the emergency manager with MARS on the table has two means of communicating with FEMA, either directly through SHARES or indirectly through DOMS/DOD. What this can mean is that the local Emergency Operations Center may spend $7000 or more for a SHARES radio or use the $2000 or less amateur radio station on MARS channels. Thus, interoperability is obtained by the MARS station either at the Emergency Operations Center being able to communicate to the military units after they arrive and even hours before they arrive.\nImagine being able to talk to the expert, to get valuable guidance about what to do to keep your local responders safe, while the resource is hours away. As a caveat, radios to be used on SHARES must be NTIA-complaint. https://ntc.cap.af.mil/comm/equipment/hf_summary.cfm lists those that are compliant. As you price some of them, you will see some cost several thousand dollars and a number are under two thousand.\nWhile you are at the NCS web site seeking information about SHARES, also look at the Government Telecommunications System and the Wireless Priority Service.\nSteve, can you tell us about SKYWARN and how amateur radio supports it?\nSteve Ewald: As Lloyd has mentioned before, SKYWARN is not an all-amateur radio program but the majority of SKYWARN members are hams. Interoperability with SKYWARN is accomplished when your Federal government partner is the National Weather Service. SKYWARN\u0092s Web page is http://www.skywarn.org .\nLloyd, how does ham radio play for the emergency manager? Can it benefit Citizens?\nLloyd Colston: Before Y2K, emergency managers stressed to Citizens that they should have a personal disaster plan and a personal disaster kit. In the plan, we tell them to get an out-of-state contact. This contact is to be called so they can convey the news of the loved one to the relatives and friends who care about their welfare. We do good telling Citizens about this. We forget to tell them HOW to do it when the phones, both cell and landline, fail to work.\nUsing the National Traffic System, amateur radio operators can send a message from Newington, CT to Pryor, OK by relaying it from ham to ham until the message is delivered. It\u0092s the RELAY in the ARRL. Messages may be relayed by radio using several different modes including digital communications, voice, and Morse code. Hams do it every day.\nThus interoperability is accomplished here; not so much with the served agencies, but to the Citizens we are challenged to serve. Every day, the League receives word of hams that help a Citizen who had a heart attack on a busy freeway, a ship\u0092s captain who had his vessel attacked by pirates, or a pilot whose aircraft radio is broken but has a passenger who is a ham. Most hams lack training in everything but how to work their radio.\nThese are just a few of the Public Service Honor Roll announcements made over the years within the pages of QST. There are many instances of interoperability both from agencies to Department but also from Citizen to Department.\nAnother use of amateur radio operators would be in the Emergency Operations Center. Remember SHARES? Oklahoma has an HF radio system like SHARES. They test it every week. It\u0092s not on the amateur radio bands. It cures the pecuniary interest problem for the director/ham but there is also a place for the volunteer who is willing to be trained. During a disaster, the ham could also serve as a call taker in a busy dispatch center or even as a radio operator for the fire department because the normal dispatcher is either incapacitated by injury or required to serve at the disaster because of his skills.\nAdditionally, nationwide the focus from Citizen Corps has been on the Community Emergency Response Teams. CERT members, most are not hams, don_t have robust communications. Some are relying on Family Radio System devices for their communications. Hams can volunteer with CERT groups and assist them with communications. They are also valuable in helping train CERT members in how to use the radios they obtain. Here in my own back yard, Pat Murphy, NJ5M, the Assistant Section Manager for the ARRL, has taken the CERT Train-the-Trainer class so he can help train both hams and non-hams in this important activity.\nAlso, some jurisdictions use hams as \u0091shadows\u0092 for government officials such as Mayors and Councilmen who don_t want to sit in a musty old EOC. This is interoperability. They are used as communications to hospitals and between hospitals and health departments. Hams can serve as interoperable agents between the hospitals and clinics without radios. They can even be the interoperable agents between medical clinics, mental health clinics, and a host of other medical facilities.\nFinally, the hams can support emergency management by participation in SKYWARN. Locally, we host a NWS spotter class each year. This is mandatory training for our volunteers. The Tulsa office of NWS trains spotters all across the region. That way, if one of my spotters misses our training, he can still get training at a location that is more convenient to him. Again, SKYWARN is your interoperable link to the National Weather Service.\nSteve, can you tell us a little about how amateur radio was used during the Shuttle recovery mission last year?\nSteve Ewald: First in Texas and later in other states farther west, Amateur Radio Emergency Service volunteers were among those assisting federal, state and local officials in a search for shuttle debris. Radio amateurs provided the communication link for many responders from around the Nation who came to assist in the search. During two weeks of searching in Nacogdoches and San Augustine Counties in Texas, nearly 350 Amateur Radio operators signed in. Eighty per cent of the participating amateurs were from outside those two counties.\nAt the shuttle recovery, hams shadowing important officials achieved interoperability. Hams in cars and with walkie-talkies went with search teams. One was assigned to the Incident Command Post.\nLloyd, don\u0092t you have a friend who was there?\nLloyd Colston: Yes, I have a friend who served there as the Safety officer for the mission. He explained to me how teams deployed with a radio operator. He has frequently said the hams were valuable, especially one day in the snow and cold. The searchers were suffering from hypothermia. My friend had his radio operator to call the Incident Command for the search to be called for the day. He brags on ham radio a lot. Now, if I can only get him to get his license.\nTim Lewallen, KD5ING, was the local Public Information Officer during that event. This was his \u0091baptism by fire,\u0092 on the job training in the extreme. He reports that volunteer amateur radio operators logged over 5,100 man hours and 60,000 miles on their personal vehicles. At minimum wage, 5100 hours is $26,265 and the 60K miles equates to $21,600. There\u0092s close to $50K in value at zero cost to the local, State, or Federal governments. To the taxpayer, the result is tax dollar savings.\nSteve, can you tell our audiences about how APRS and PSK31 might benefit an emergency manager in need of \u0091almost\u0092 secure communication?\nSteve Ewald: APRS is Automatic Position Reporting System. It is a real-time tactical communications and display system for emergencies and public service applications. With APRS, radio amateurs are:\n1. Able to send text messages to the mobile/handheld unit;\n2. Able to track a resource as it moves around the field;\n3. Able to send email to cell phones, pagers, and email addresses from the field using internet gateways; and\n4. Able to receive NWS weather warnings and watches directly to monitors in the area.\nInteroperability allows for APRS units to be stationed at strategic sites. For example, an APRS unit might be located at the staging areas for fire, police, and EMS. As units are checked into the area, the chief of logistics logs them. As they are deployed, APRS could move the information to the FINANCE chief so they could start tracking the cost.\nIf you had enough APRS units, you could track the individual unit around the field. It would add a whole new level to accountability. If the unit is damaged the signal goes away. If the unit moves, you can see where it went. You may not know why but you will know it moved. In the case of having a number of the resources identified on the field, should you need one at Point X, you can visually see which one is closer.\nThe ability to send a text message to an APRS radio helps reduce your voice net overhead. The message is received. It displays on the screen. There is very little need for follow-up such as those little annoying \"what did you say?\" events that tie up the channel.\nPSK31 is an acronym for \"Phase Shift Keying, 31 Baud\". PSK31 is a form of modulation (or \"mode\") that offers a new and higher level of performance in conversational communications (keyboard-to-keyboard) that we \"hams\" (amateur radio operators) can enjoy.\nPSK 31 requires sophisticated decoding equipment that would allow for messages, that, though they can be intercepted, can be sent over a more secure channel than voice. PSK31 allows for interoperability on a grander scale. For example, if the phone lines are down, Internet is down, you have nothing, PSK31 could be used to send a Materials Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) from a site that has internet directly to the Incident Commander. He could print the sheet at the command van and have it ready for his team leaders. It really is like the old radio teletype except it is faster and less prone to errors.\nLloyd, are there benefits for the emergency manager who chooses to support a radio program?\nLloyd Colston: Yes, and a pretty important one at that. Remember the shuttle disaster? As it turns out, in my discussion with Steve Vaughn with the Texas Department of Emergency Management, the exact total of the number of hours donated by amateur radio operators at the recovery effort is forever lost. Why? Because there appears to be no documentation of how many were there, for how long, etc. As I mentioned earlier, Tim gave us some figures that are \u0091guestimates\u0092 at best that came from the best available sources.\nWhat this means is that the important part of the Incident Command System and the system that divides the command into four parts, i.e. planning, operations, logistics, and finance \u0096 that important part called Finance never learned about some of the resources expended. In the medical arena, the rule is \"If it is not documented, then it did not happen.\" It applies to emergency management as well.\nAs a side note, for some of our hams here, you should learn at least the rudimentary principles of ICS. Communications is in the Logistics section. FEMA has free ICS training. It is I-195 Basic Incident Command System. It\u0092s free and available at http://training.fema.gov/EMIWeb/IS/crslist.asp .\nOne of the lessons learned from this is the Finance Section may need to track all volunteers, even if they are not \u0091paid.\u0092 Why? Because grants are often tied to the recovery cost. The higher the cost, the more money to come to the local jurisdiction. Those grants often have a match. Occasionally, the match may be soft. In other words, if the local jurisdiction has a RACES program contributing 1 hour per week for 10 members, that\u0092s 520 hours. If the price of a radio operator was $10 per hour, then that is $5,200 of soft match money. For an 80/20 grant, that\u0092s $26,000 or over $20K after the match. I cannot say it will work all the time. If it works once, that\u0092s more than you had.\nIf you\u0092d like to see if there are any hams in your local area, there are two ways to do this. Steve, would you tell us how, please?\nSteve Ewald: Check with the ARRL. Ask me at [email protected] . Tell me where you are so I can direct you to your local Emergency Coordinator or District Emergency Coordinator. Another way is to do a search of the database at QRZ. Go to http://www.qrz.com/i/names.html and search your local zip code(s). This will give you the names and address of the local hams.\nIn Mayes County Oklahoma, there are over 100 hams in the various zip codes. About ten of them are involved in the local EM (as in RACES) program. They are a valuable asset to EM, especially during storm season. Maybe you could partner with the EC to send a letter inviting them to participate in your new ARES/RACES program.\nLloyd Colston: By the way, Mr. Vaughn is very appreciative of the hard work that hams did in the Shuttle recovery. He told me, \"for the first 72 hours, all the communicating being done was by amateur radio.\" He told me that the State of Texas is working to revamp the RACES program.\nWhat does all this interoperable communication cost? Absolutely nothing. Because of the \u0091without pecuniary interest\u0092 clause, a ham can not bill you for his service as long as he is using amateur radio resources. The sign \"will work for food\" may apply though.\nAvagene, would this be a good time to take questions from the audience?\n[Audience Question & Answers]\nEd Kostiuk: I want to thank both Steve and Lloyd. During STS-107 recovery we would have been lost had it not been for the HAMS folks. This past weekend after graduating a class of SAR personnel, Lloyd and I were en route to a real situation and again it would have been impossible to communicate without his HAMS system. During STS-107 I asked our HAMS folks to call off the search due to bad weather; it was taken care of in a matter of minutes. We owe them so much.\nLloyd Colston: First, it's good to see my friend, Ed, here. Thanks for reinforcing the use of amateur radio. Ed tried using a cell phone but with no cell service, I was using my ham radio in the car as we caravanned to the search area.\nAl FitzSimons: Steve, you mentioned RACES is limited to certain frequencies. Isn't this only when amateur radio use is restricted?\nSteve Ewald: RACES frequencies are limited but they may be used at the same time as ARES.\nScott Duckworth: How do you propose to get governments to see the need for hams? Many have chosen to ignore a valuable resource.\nLloyd Colston: Thanks, Scott, for that question. Part of the problem has been two-fold, in my opinion. First, the local government has not gotten the word from the local ham about what they can do. In other words, groups of hams need to do a better job getting the word out. Second, most of the local groups I have had complain, criticize hams for not being able to provide what they promise. In other words, they over promise and underachieve. As a consequence, I answer that criticism with \"How clearly were your expectations delivered?\" In many cases, the expectations were not delivered at all. The mission was go talk and we did.\nHelen Norris: I am an Emergency Management Director in Ohio with a wonderful, active team (established as RACES). My question is in regard to the cost of PSK31 and how many units do you need to make it work on a basic level? In past years we were poor and couldn't purchase much equipment to support our team. Now we have a modest budget, but I am always looking to improve their value to our responders (and me in the EOC).\nLloyd Colston: Helen, I am revamping the EOC radio system here. The radio I have chosen is the Kenwood 2000. Cost is less than $2K and around $2K if you throw in an antenna. By the way, the radios I mentioned are three total \u0096 one for the EOC, one for my car, and one for another site - funded by grants I was able to obtain.\nDavis Perryman: I volunteer with a local Red Cross chapter. The local ham community has donated old business band radios that they have reprogrammed for ham use to be used in shelters. They have been working on this project for over a year now and still have not completed the project. How can we nudge them to complete the project? We have built a very good relationship with the Ham community over the last year or two locally.\nSteve Ewald: David, are you in touch with the local EC?\nDavid Perryman: Yes. He is the one that is heading up the project. Actually, he just got promoted to the district coordinator of ARES Capital District.\nSteve Ewald: I see. Let me contact you after the forum. I am at [email protected]\nChris Joyal: How does the use of Emergency Support Functions (ESFs) affect direction and control for amateur radio operators? Sometimes EOC configuration and operations is not exactly parallel to the ICS used in the field. Does this affect interoperability, in your opinion?\nLloyd Colston: Good question, Chris. ESF is an important part of what we do. As you know there are a number of them. Communications is just one. Our EOC is configured such that communications gets its own room. Not because we think it is the most important. We hams tend to be noisy therefore we sequester them aside and use another room for the remaining ESFs.\nDonovan Hoggan: Are there any brief, easy to read outlines of the different capacities of Ham radio? The biggest obstacle I'm running into to is that the Managers don't understand that Ham is more than just HF\nLloyd Colston: Thank you, Donovan. If it were me, I'd ask the local managers what they want to accomplish. There is a resource to do it.\nSteve Ewald: Yes, there are some good resources. The ARRL Web site at http://www.arrl.org/pio/ is a good start for information.\nDavid Grizzle: I am the Emergency Management Coordinator for my City. I noticed the comment on grants. I would like for it to go back up the food chain that many of the grants for Emergency Management do not include the authority to buy radios and other equipment. They are deemed as first responder items and I have to compete with the Police and Fire Departments for the grant money. I lose. I would ask that more voices raise this issue. City budget money is very limited and restrictive. [email protected]\nLloyd Colston: David, look at Homeland Security funding for your needs. In Oklahoma, we are able to buy interoperable communication equipment.\nBruce Powell: Regarding how to get the local EM interested in AR. Virginia RACES made a video tape after Hurricane Floyd. It has testimonials from several EMs and law enforcement types and the director of EM for Virginia. Contact me at [email protected] to arrange for a copy.\nLloyd Colston: I'd like to add that Virginia RACES has a very active organization. Their net tonight on 60 meters is just one example of what Virginia is getting done.\nNorman Dorn: As a late joiner, your reference to ESFs comes from what context? Regional Emergency Coordination Plan (RECP)?\nLloyd Colston: Essential Support Functions. It's defined on the FEMA Web site, Norman. http://www.fema.gov\nChris Joyal: Follow on: ICS and ESFs have to do more with coordination, I guess. For example, a previous question asked about HAM operators and Red Cross shelters. This is Mass Care ESF and Communications ESF as well as perhaps Volunteers and Donations Management. Does it present a difficulty having to move from ESF environment to traditional ICS environment on-scene?\nLloyd Colston: Chris, if you will allow me \u0096 I look at ICS as what happens in the field while ESF happens in the EOC. Then there's the ICS/EOC interface and a whole course to deal with it.\nHans Zimmermann: Overall, hams are also best when it comes to solving problems in any networtk - not only in the use of their own networks in RACES or ARES.\nSteve Ewald: Indeed, Amateur Radio operators are very resourceful.\nDaniel Sullivan: Good job in presenting the hobby as a viable communications tools during an emergency, Steve and Lloyd. I want to toss out the other side of the coin if I could to build on earlier statements. Hams need to coordinate better with their local EMAs in order to develop the relationships needed for a successful program. Regular meetings with the EM Director, coordinating planning and training schedules with the local EMA Training Officer, and inclusion in long term planning within the jurisdiction's EMA are a few of the ways Hams can work to improve their status.\nLloyd Colston: I will encourage all EMs to develop an auxiliary communications team. Using hams, you can augment your communications and locally, we have some of our hams very active in the workings of the EOC plus you get the benefit of additional support when the times turn bad.\nDavid Moseley: There is confusion on the use of Tactical call signs to insure brevity and accuracy of communications. What is ARRL doing to change the FCC's and the average ham's idea of the parameters of that. I'm a retired fire chief who used tactical call signs with great success. It will prevent mistakes and speed communication.\nSteve Ewald: David, the ARRL Amateur Radio Emergency Communication Courses deal a lot with this topic. The hams must follow FCC rules and at the same time adapt to the local emergency. It can be confusing, but practice through training is the key.\nHelen Norris: In relation to Homeland Security Grants: In Ohio we are required to work with a multi-discipline team, totaling 12 people, to make the decisions about how our funds are spent from those grants. We have extensively funded Communications equipment where it interfaces with response, including at EMA. Ask your EMA Director to bring the request before their Terrorism Advisory Team.\nDavid Moseley: 9-11 has changed how we should operate. The hams who have taken those courses advise the advice is not clear. If the FCC is requiring outdated procedures, it would appear that ARRL is the vehicle to seek modernization of that. I am involved with the local EM guys.\nLloyd Colston: David, I'll restate that local hams need to be involved with the local EM - period.\nSteve Ewald: I understand, David, the topic is worthy of discussion.\nRick Hampton: Another point of confusion when using Amateur Radio is employees who are licensed. I can understand the need to preclude a conflict of interest. How can we justify this confusion in cases of emergencies?\nLloyd Colston: Rick, good question. The answer lies in the definition of an emergency. If I can't communicate to safe life or property on a cell then I can use amateur radio, even though I am paid for that service. I have to try the cell first.\nAmy Sebring: That's all we have time for today. We greatly appreciate your efforts and time on our behalf today, Lloyd and Steve. Good discussion!

        "raw_content": "In Addition to a Gay Character, \u201cSpartacus\u201d Also Features Out Actor Craig Parker\nCraig Parker as Claudius Glaber\nRegular readers know we\u2019ve been touting Starz\u2019s new show Spartacus: Blood and Sand for quite some time because it features an intriguing gay character. Not to mention plenty of beefcake, and of course, since it also has Lucy Lawless.\nBut over the weekend, one of our staffers tumbled across the info that the show also includes an out actor in one of the major secondary roles. That would be New Zealand actor Craig Parker whom many genre fans will also no doubt recognize from his roles in Lord of the Rings as Haldir and in the television series Legend of the Seeker where he plays Darken Rahl.\nIn Spartacus, the 39-year-old Parker plays the Roman general Claudius Glaber who causes no end of trouble for our hero played by Andy Whitfield.\nIt appears Parker first publicly discussed being gay in an interview with New Zealand\u2019s Sunday Herald back in 2008. Regarding his sexuality, the very private Parker told reporter Shannon Huse that as a gay man, he doesn\u2019t care what people say about his sexuality and that:\nIt\u2019s jut not an issue for me. I just don\u2019t get why an actor would want to reveal their secrets, hopes and fears to a magazine or newspaper. I know what the magazine gets out of it, but not the person. If you are doing publicity to increase your self-confidence then you are really in trouble. It\u2019s important to keep some privacy. Your friends and family are the people you reveal yourself to. They are the ones who should have real access to you.\nI\u2019m glad Parker decided to reveal this much about himself, as it is always great to have another out actor in the world, especially one playing Roman general who knows how to fight (even if he isn\u2019t the nicest guy in the world.)\nHere are some more pics of Parker.\nAs Haldir in Lord of the Rings\nAs Darken Rahl in Legend of the Seeker\nAnd as the lead in a New Zealand show called Diplomatic Immunity",

The sea can change and it can be too rough for us at times,\u201d he said.\nSince it began six years ago, the marathon had been a popular event for people in Oamaru to watch, Mr Story said.\n\u201cI think it\u2019s something good for the town. It\u2019s cost no-one anything to go and watch it.\n\u201cA lot of people can actually sit there and watch it from home, so we have no idea how many people watch it from home.\u201d\nDespite the stress of organising the event, Mr Story believed this year\u2019s marathon would be a hit.\n\u201cEvery year, you hope it\u2019s going to be a success.

        "raw_content": "Al Mohler on the ad absurdum of liberalism as reality\nThe theological self-destruction of the church never starts with a pastor who doesn't even believe in the existence of God. It begins with denials of one doctrine here, another there. Before long, the unwillingness of the church to call its churches and ministers to account leads to further theological concessions. The cowardice of church bureaucrats opens the door to any and all theological aberrations. The next thing you know, there is an atheist in the pulpit.\nA church afraid of \"a protracted discussion about the meanings of words that in the end will produce little clarity\" is itself the guilty party in that lack of clarity. The church bears the responsibility to make the issues clear and to defend the faith -- otherwise it isn't a church at all.\nThe Dutch have become famous worldwide for their liberal approach to assisted suicide and euthanasia. In this case we see something new -- the suicide of a church.\nThe bizarre nature of quantum physics has attracted some speculations that are wacky but the theory suggests to some serious scientists that reality, at its most basic, is perfectly compatible with what might be called a spiritual view of things.\nQuote taken from: What do you get if you divide science by God?\nAlthough the Templeton Prize is said to be awarded for contributions to \"affirming life's spiritual dimension\", I was still surprised (pleasantly) to see this article run in the BBC.\nInteresting read. Note atheist physicist Steven Weinberg's perspective:\n\"The more the universe seems comprehensible, the more it seems pointless.\"\nIt is only because of historical accident that atheism is not widely recognised as a world-view in its own right. This world view is essentially a very general form of naturalism, in which there are not two kinds of stuff, the natural and the supernatural, but one. The forces that govern this substance are also natural ones and there is no ultimate purpose or agency behind them. Human life is biological, and thus does not survive beyond biological death.\nQuote taken from The New Atheist Movement is destructive Apparently from reviews, atheists aren't too happy about this article.\nIn addition to encouraging Christians to read this article for information, my desire here is to draw out some points worth noting from one of the paragraphs in the article dealing not so much with the new atheism but with the author's own atheistic beliefs.\nIn atheism (this author's view)\n1. If there is \"no purpose\" behind what governs then how can things happen by \"historical accident\"? Besides, what is the standard to measure if something is an accident? How do we know what is accident and what isn't? If this happened by historical accident what else did and how do we tell? If no purpose, then what matters and why care?\n2. No grounds given for the assertion that \"there are not two kinds of stuff, the natural and the supernatural, but one.\"\n3. No grounds given for \"no ultimate purpose or agency behind\" the forces that govern this world. Additionally, this means if a person dies as a result of natural forces, they are simply a victim. Additionally, if there is no supernatural, then absolutes of justice, accountability, and truth do not exist, and whereas atheists may claim if it were proved there was no god that things would not change much tomorrow (which I disagree with) then why speak beyond what a person just does to what they should do? (Note: a statement such as \"we all know\" or \"an overwhelming majority of men agree\" that we should do that that promote humanity ... points to some measure to absolute truth, etc.)\n4. For this atheist, human life boils down to simply the biological. As history of worldviews has shown, this view runs into problems when it comes to experience, human dignity, human consciousness, etc.\n5. No grounds noted for assertion that humans do not survive beyond biological death.\n\"Old\" vs \"New\" Calvinism: An Open Letter to Mark Driscoll on Cessationism vs Continuationism\nPastor Mark, I must first profess the high esteem that I have for you, your teaching and your mission. I frequently utilize your videos and books in my classes/courses and feel you are the right man \"for such a time as this\". A light in the darkness. I praise God for you, your family and your ministry. Christ is honored and God glorified through you and Mars Hill.\nI have read some of your responses to the recent Time article, particularly how you draw distinctions between the \"old\" and \"new\" Calvinism. I tend to agree with the high level summaries you utilized, however I do have some \"heartburn\" with how you characterized the \"new\" Calvinist as seemingly 100% continuationist. From the exposure I have had to your theological positions, I believe that you are probably at least partially cessationistic. The reason I believe this is because I, until very recently, would have also characterized myself as a continuationist until I was exposed to a couple of paradigms that made me re-think my alignment to this position. I'd like to present these paradigms, challenge you to consider the implications and present a framework that I pray may be helpful.\nFirst, my understanding of the initiation of the gifts of the Holy Spirit was the occurance in the 1st century we Christians refer to as Pentecost. This historic event was captured in Scripture through the guidance of the Holy Spirit by the physician and Christian historian Luke in his 2nd letter to Theophilus that has been named the Acts of the Apostles - commonly called Acts.\nThis event was specifically prophesied by Jesus several times in Scripture, but particularly relevant to the subject at hand in Acts and John:\nJohn 14 16And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Helper, to be with you forever, 17even the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees him nor knows him. You know him, for he dwells with you and will be in you\n26But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you.\nI took careful note of the last part I bolded in John 14:26 as I studied this subject. It was a particularly important statement as I was considering the 2 doctrinal positions, particularly in light of the framework of cessationism and continuationism presented in this article by Phil Johnson over at Pyromaniacs:\n1 - If you believe any of the miraculous spiritual gifts were operative in the apostolic era only, and that some or all of those gifts gradually ceased before the end of the first century, you are a cessationist.\n2 - If you believe all the spiritual gifts described in the New Testament have continued unabated, unchanged, and unaltered since the initial outpouring of tongues at Pentecost, you are a continuationist.\nNow, I am fairly certain that you would agree that at least one activity associated with the initial gifting of the Holy Spirit has ceased - that is - the ability to prophesy Scripture. I also think you'll agree that this gift was only valid during the formation of the New Testament canon, otherwise, the Lord is still delivering Scripture through the Holy Spirit to His people today and the Reformed principle of Sola Scriptura is rendered invalid.\nAnother continuationism vs cessationism distinction that I was introduced to was also enlightening:\nAs it has been traditionally presented, consistent continuationists believe that the extraordinary gifts should be sought after as an ordinary part of the Christian faith. Whereas the cessationist has no issue with extraordinary occurrences for extraordinary circumstances, the expectation is that the normative exercise of the spiritual gifts will fall in line with the less extraordinary (but not less wonderful!) edification gifts, at least until the final hours of the eschaton.\nThat is, cessationism does not assert that the Holy Spirit has ceased working how and as He desires. Cessationism does, however acknowledge that God does ordain and move in different ways in different times during history and that the end of the Apostolic age heralded the end of the normative and validating acts of extraordinary signs and wonders.\nThe distinction is very fine, but the more I thought, studied and prayed about it and the more the Lord led godly wisdom and words my way, the more I have become convinced of the cessationist position. This does not make me uncomfortable in the presence of the Holy Spirit nor am I proposing setting limits on the power of the Holy Spirit. It does help me contextualize the words of the Apostle Paul:\n1First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all people, 2 for kings and all who are in high positions, that we may lead a peaceful and quiet life, godly and dignified in every way. 3This is good, and it is pleasing in the sight of God our Savior\nPastor Mark, it is my prayer that this brief letter would give you some food for thought and act as some small aid in your deliberations on this subject.\nRichest blessings in Christ,\nIllustration that \"Good Works\" ALONE Not Pleasing/Acceptable to God\nIt\u2019s hard for Americans to be humble,\u201d Mike Boehm reflects, while talking with me on the phone about his humanitarian work. ... Boehm\u2019s efforts are those of a nontheistic humanitarian, one who bristles at the mention that he is doing God\u2019s work. \u201cThat notion offends me,\u201d...\nQuote taken from here in an article entitled \"The Humanitarian Impulse: Not \u201cGod\u2019s Work\u201d for this Veteran.\"\nOften, unbelievers ask the question \"What about the person who participates in good works though he doesn't believe in God?\"\nThis true life illustration highlights how individuals and their works (apart from consideration of faith and motive) may APPEAR pleasing, righteous and good; but when viewed in whole not only show how the individual would FALL SHORT of meeting God's righteous standard but would BE OFFENSIVE to (and condemnable before) God!\n(This is the first time I've seen such an expression of the heart so clearly and overtly communicated. Thanks to \"the Humanist\" magazine for providing this story and most powerful illustration.)\nPornography is one of the most insidious dimensions of American culture today. It is a plague that is ruining lives, marriages, and public morals. It endangers women, children, and the most vulnerable among us. Putting one who can only be described as an extremist for pornography in such a high position in the Department of Justice -- Deputy Attorney General of the United States -- sends a clear signal at home and around the world. If David Ogden is confirmed, the U.S. Senate becomes a party to this disaster.\nWhat signal does President Obama intend to send by this nomination, and to whom?\nIn addition to making it harder to prosecute those who sell images of child molestation and rape, Ogden has sought to ensure that pornography can be easily distributed and readily accessed in almost any medium or location. He has fought cases in Puerto Rico to allow Playboy to broadcast explicit programming on TV. He represented Philip Harvey, a man who runs the nation\u2019s largest mail-order pornography shop out of North Carolina, in his attempt to deflect a Department of Justice investigation of his business. Completing a sort of multi-media grand slam, Ogden has sued to allow sexually-explicit content to be transmitted over the phone. Taking this quest to its absurd limits, he has even claimed in court that there is a constitutional right for pornography to be kept in firehouses. Ogden\u2019s position is good for the industry groups he has represented but bad for female firefighters who could be subjected to humiliating and harassing images in the workplace. With an equal disregard for the comfort and protection of children, in 2000 Ogden sued to allow pornography to be accessed in public libraries.\nfrom Al Mohler's site\nIn the discussion about what constitutes science and what doesn't, we read this:\nAfter observing and collecting data, you form a hypothesis that fits the available facts.\nThen you come up with experiments, or you propose other ways of confirming the hypothesis with data currently not available.\nOnce the hypothesis has been shown to predict outcomes or new evidence, it becomes a theory. Then you write a scientific paper documenting the evidence and making your best argument according to the scientific method.\nThen you submit the paper for publication and peer review. Skeptics will pick it apart, but if there is real substance, some legitimate scientists will adopt the theory.\nRead on to see how I become a Golfologist...(with apologies to David Berlinski, pg 56 - The Devil's Delusion)\nWhen looking at people playing golf, I saw that some were good players and others were hacks (like me). After spending many hours watching golf live and on TV, I saw that all golfers had something in common. Once I saw it, it became so obvious what it was. If one looks for it, you can't miss it.\nThe one common thing I saw was that the good players had a certain element in their swing that the hacks didn't. From this simple observation I concluded that this part of the swing was the most important aspect in being a good, par-breaking golfer. This swing method is based on this observable fact, and if hacks could learn it, they would become much better golfers.\nThe next thing was to test my idea by teaching it to some golfers to see if it worked. It did, and a few people were very happy about improving their game so much.\nI then documented and video'd this swing element and how to teach it, and sent it to Golf Digest. The editors were very impressed and published my article and linked the videos from their website. Their expert columnists agreed that it was a good article to publish, and a good discovery about improving people's golf. After publishing, the letters started pouring in, and although some were a bit critical of my teaching methods, the results overall were excellent.\nI was now a Golfologist.\nHad to post this here as well.\nFrom The Biblical Studies Blog:\nWORLD: Another of the more controversial elements of the show was the choice to make the Jack/Jonathan character gay. Can you talk a little bit about what led you to that decision and what you think it brings to the show?\nGREEN: I don't think it is controversial. The goal of the show was to take the story of David and make it contemporary. So I wanted anything that exists in our world to exist in the world of Kings. And people of all sorts exist in our world, and they make for a good story.\nWORLD: Fair enough, but how do you think the Christian community will respond to that interpretation of Jonathan?\nGREEN: That depends on how you define Christian community. Most of them we have heard from so far have been extremely positive about it. But I know that there are some people who think that any representation of any gay character on any network or cable show is wrong. And anyone who thinks that a gay character is not welcome on television is perfectly welcome not to watch my show.\nAbove excerpt taken from a World Magazine article where they interviewed the producer of the upcoming NBC series called Kings.\nAs far as answering the question of making Jack/Jonathan gay by switching and saying \"But I know that there are some people who think that nay reprersentation of any gay character on any network or cable show is wrong\" ... is nothing but a dodge and an example of the fallacy of accident or universal generalization.\nFor those who are tempted to point out he stated \"Most of them we have heard from so far have been extremely positive about it\"; let me point out what the producer did not address was evidence to support the suggestion that the Bible sought to portray Jonathan as gay.\nI wonder if by stating \"I don't think it's controversial\" the producer is as naive as he tries to come across or whether he's simply trying to tell us how to think.\nOne of the reasons why it is important for us to establish global partnerships is because of what we in the West need to receive, and not just because of what we have to give. And one of the things we have to receive is the courage and conviction of faithful, orthodox believers in other parts of the world.\nI concur wholeheartedly with Dr. Ryken's comment, taken from here. Believers today need to be intentional about keeping and establishing global relationships in the interests of the kingdom.\nThe coming evangelical collapse is an article worth the read, though one must keep in mind differences between expressions and movements associated with the Christian faith and the faith itself. Reminds us that our ultimate hope is not in the things of this world, but in Christ, who not only brings redemption but will bring restoration, and who though he calls us to faithful service in this world and also tests us, even bringing about division and events of raising up and bringing down, that progression will continue to come, all the while with doing so in a manner that his kingdom presence, objectives, manifestations and fruit continue to remain, occur, and advance. With this in mind, it's a read that gives good food for thought and consideration on a variety of issues.\nMany unbelievers will probably think recent polls suggesting More Americans Say They Have No Religion will be taken as bad news by Christians. Quite the opposite though, for no true believer will lose their faith. The current trends fueled by post modern philosophies and an environment in which it's deemed more acceptable for people to express their own (true) beliefs only provides:\n1. a more honest situation in which the identity, unbelief, and faulty foundations of unbelievers will be more exposed and hence more open to evangelism and correction\n2. a greater distinction in which the value and distinctions of the Christian faith can be greater appreciated\n3. a greater purity to the visible church as false professors separate themselves from the church.\nA strategy to briefly engage and rebut Atheistic Naturalist teachers on evolutionary theory\nA scenario came up in a discussion board I frequent concerning a biology teacher that would challenge his students whenever the topic of evolution arose. He would challenge the students that if they objected to his veiws they should speak up and that their silence was basically an acceptance of evolutionary theory.\nI have tried to think up a brief, yet impactful rebuttal - this is was I have, thus far:\nI'd probably start with the fact that evolution is not intellectually satisfying on its face in that the theory relies on the unguided increase of information to accomplish what it theorizes, which is counter to the observation of natural processes.\nI'd also say that I object to the premise of evolution, that is, \"from goo to you\" as well as the implications - that is - social Darwinism (Nazi-ism, Communism, the French reign of Terror - more deaths in the last century - over 100 million or so - than the sum of all previous religious or political movements in human history).\nI'd summarize that while I may not be able to rebut the teacher on the level of detail into which they may try to dive and while evolutionary theory and the worldview it supports may be intellectually satisfying to some, I am satisfied that my worldview supports a spiritual and scientific framework with an ultimate purpose and goal for Creation and does not reduce Mankind to a morally deluded, purposeless gene-passing meatbag.\nI welcome your feedback and refinement of this short rebuttal :)\nMany states adopted abstinence-only education in return for federal funding, but 13 years after Congress designed the programs in 1996, teen pregnancy rates are on the rise and critics say kids are simply not listening to the abstinence-only message.\n\"It's bad \u2014 we have the ninth-highest pregnancy rate in the country and it's clear that our students need more information,\" said Emily Pelino, education director for the Adolescent Pregnancy Prevention Campaign of North Carolina (APPCNC).\nA good example to remind the church that while it's nice when the schools reinforce what is taught in the church, the church cannot and should not look to the world to carry forth it's mission.\nIt shouldn't surprise us at times when teaching abstinence only education in schools apart from the foundations of righteousness, of honoring God, of accountability along with the reality of new life in Christ and power through his Spirit that pregnancy rates may go up.\nThe problem is not just students needing \"more information\", for contraceptives and the like will only mask the sin and curtail some of the outward physical consequences, but not solve either the root issues or problems.\nThis path of alternating secular education can continue in a pendulum effect forever, and while the world may continue on it's path and go it's own ways, let the church be light and a voice of truth leading to holiness, happiness and God honoring living and lifestyles for those who will hear and overcome. Praise be to God for his truth and for the promise and power that comes through his Son, the risen Lord!",

        "raw_content": "Walter Mouton (left) with fellow accordionist Wayne Toups back when Toups had short hair. Photo: David Simpson\nA Cajun icon: Walter Mouton returns to Jazz Fest\nApril 23, 2018 by: Dan Willging\tLeave a comment\nThe 2016 Festivals Acadiens et Cr\u00e9oles (FAeC) proved fruitful for Walter Mouton. Festival organizers released his first ever full-length album, Walter Mouton and the Scott Playboys: Live at Festivals Acadiens et Cr\u00e9oles (17 live tracks culled from FAeC performances 1992-2014). A New Orleans Jazz Fest representative just happened to inquire why he no longer played Jazz Fest. Mouton replied that he had for years but whoever had booked him had moved on. \u2018You will have an invitation next year,\u2019 Mouton remembers the rep saying.\nMouton received his 2017 invitation all right, but inclement weather prevented him from performing the scheduled day. So Mouton collected his check and headed home in the worst storm he had ever driven through, including his years as a truck driver.\nThough last year\u2019s Jazz Fest was not meant to be for Mouton, what was meant to be was his destiny to become one of the best Cajun accordionists and bandleaders, a career that began nearly 70 years ago. His father played an accordion and on Thursday nights, the family would go see the legendary Iry LeJeune. \u201cI would sit on that two-by-four railing going around the bandstand and listen to everything that was going on,\u201d Mouton says.\nThat was enough to spark his interest and before too long, he began tinkering with accordions. \u201cEventually I figured out how that contraption worked,\u201d Mouton says. \u201cYou have to learn those ten buttons on the melody side and those buttons on the bass side; they are not there for parade either. My daddy said \u2018If you are ever going to be something, you are going to have to work it all or you just as soon give up.\u2019 It was a big challenge but it kept me out of mischief.\u201d\nMouton formed his first band the Scott Playboys, a four-piece, at age thirteen-and-a-half. Mouton played accordion, Rodney Miller played fiddle and Johnnie Allan and future brother-in-law Leeman Prejean were on guitars. From the outset, Mouton was blessed with a good sense of timing and an impeccable ear.\n\u201cI learned how to tune a fiddle and a guitar and I couldn\u2019t play either one of them. Rodney Miller played fiddle and he couldn\u2019t tune his fiddle. Johnnie Allan was on guitar and couldn\u2019t tune his guitar. So I would tune both instruments. After years of fooling around with them, I learned how to play the fiddle, guitar, bass and steel.\u201d\nMouton once sat in for his idol Lawrence Walker at the OST Club in Rayne. \u201cHe got on the microphone and started saying \u2018People, see that boy?\u2019\u201d Mouton recalls Walker saying. \u201c\u2018He is the one that\u2019s going to replace me when I go.\u2019 That surprised the shit out of me.\u201d\nIn 1964, Mouton began his 44-year association with the La Poussiere Club in Breaux Bridge. For a dozen years, Mouton estimates, his band played every other Saturday night before playing the next 32 years every Saturday night. Mouton\u2019s crackerjack band included fiddler Dick Richard for 26 years and steel guitarist Randall Foreman for 22 years. Mamou Playboys drummer Kevin Dugas, then a teenager, also passed through his ranks.\nThough Mouton is known for his encyclopedic repertoire, he\u2019s most famous for his rousing composition \u201cScott Playboy Special.\u201d Interestingly he doesn\u2019t claim to have written the crowd-pleasing instrumental but adapted it from Doc Guidry and Happy Fats\u2019 fiddle-guitar version of the \u201cCrowley Two Step.\u201d What made Mouton\u2019s version different is that he played it on accordion.\nWith Mouton packing in wall-to-wall crowds, La Poussiere became known as a musician\u2019s hangout on Saturday nights for those who didn\u2019t have a gig. \u201cEvery musician that wanted to be a musician, this was one of their stops,\u201d says owner Lawrence Patin. \u201cThere were a lot of young musicians coming up at the same time like Steve Riley and they wanted to learn. So they would come listen and incorporate some of that into what they wanted to do.\u201d\nOne such up-and-comer was Wayne Toups, who can relate to how Mouton must have felt when Walker bestowed praise on him since he felt the same way from his idol\u2019s encouragement. When Richard had to take time off, Mouton moved over to fiddle and gave the accordion reins to Toups for the entire night. \u201cIt showed me that he believed that I had what it took to be an accomplished accordion player at a very young age,\u201d Toups says. \u201cI\u2019m talking about when I was 16\u201317 years old. That\u2019s how I gained a lot of knowledge by playing in that band.\u201d\n\u201cIt wasn\u2019t just about his style but it was about his knowledge and the ways he interpreted those songs,\u201d Toups continues. \u201cHis passages, embellishments and the way he approached those songs, he was, as far as I\u2019m concerned, the total package.\u201d\nThough Mouton still plays on special occasions, he retired from his longstanding La Poussiere gig on New Year\u2019s Eve, 2008. \u201cYou see being that I started playing when I was thirteen-and-a-half, my following of people were 18\u201320,30, 40, up to 50 and 60,\u201d Mouton says. \u201cAs I started getting older, the people older than me started dying. You can\u2019t get them to come to the dance when they are six feet under.\u201d\n\u201cYou know I never made a whole lot of money,\u201d Mouton continues. \u201cBut I was never broke once I started playing music.\u201d\nWALTER MOUTON & THE SCOTT PLAYBOYS: SATURDAY, MAY 5\u2014FAIS DO-DO STAGE, 11:15 A.M.\nJazz Festwalter moutonWalter Mouton and the Scott Playboys\nPrevious PostIn Memoriam: Thomas \u201cBig Chief Tom\u201d Sparks Sr.Next PostReturning to the City: Keyboardist Marco Benevento feels welcome",

David Derby, R-Owasso, worked closely together to schedule the hearing so key expert witnesses from around the country would be available to testify about the safety of these products.\nE-Cigarette, or \u201cvapor\u201d advocates, along with public health officials, are scheduled to make presentations beginning at 9:00 a.m. in the Senate Chamber.\n\u201cI believe it\u2019s important for us to have an informed discussion on the subject of electronic cigarettes, especially in light of recent proposed regulations of these products,\u201d Crain said. \u201cI look forward to hearing expert testimony from both sides of the debate. I\u2019m especially grateful that Secretary of Health and Human Services Terry Cline will be in testifying, but it\u2019s very disappointing that our invitation to the Tobacco Settlement Endowment Trust to testify was declined.\u201d\nCrain said the relationship between these products and successful smoking cessation was something that needed to be better understood as the legislature proceeds to craft regulations.\n\u201cThe Legislature has been told that there is a growing consensus within the medical and scientific communities supporting the use of e-cigarettes and vaping to help smoking cessation efforts, but alarmingly, much of this information has not been recognized by public health officials,\u201d Crain said.\nDr. Joel Nitzkin, a physician and a former Louisiana State Health Director, is scheduled to make a presentation as part of the hearing.\n\u201cTobacco control policy has gone largely unchanged during the last 30 years. Significant data is pointing toward the promise of these products to help reduce the rate of smoking,\u201d Nitzkin said. \u201cIt really becomes a question of ethics, whether public health officials across the county acknowledge this data in their efforts to achieve a meaningful reduction in smoking rates.\u201d\nAccording to information released by the Oklahoma State Department of Health, Oklahoma ranked 39th in the nation in 2013 for adult smoking compared to 47th in 2012. The percentage of adult smokers decreased from 26.1 percent to 23.3 percent. During the same time period, the Oklahoma Tax Commission saw 14 million fewer cigarette tax stamps sold. Advocates have noted that while the state\u2019s public policy remains unchanged, public use of vaping products and electronic cigarettes has risen exponentially.\nSpeakers for the joint hearing include:\n\u2022 Michael Shannon - Vice President, External Affairs & Associate General Counsel, Lorillard, Inc.\n\u2022 Dr. Joel Nitzkin, Senior Fellow Tobacco Policy, R Street Institute\n\u2022 Sean Gore, Chairman, Oklahoma Vapor Advocacy League\n\u2022 Mr. Jerry Blakley, Concerned Citizen\n\u2022 Dr. Leonard Lichtenfeld, Deputy Chief Medical Officer, American Cancer Society\n\u2022 Terry Cline, PhD, Secretary of Health and Human Services and Commissioner of Health\n\u2022 Jeff Stier, Senior Fellow at the National Center for Public Policy Research in Washington, DC\n\u2022 Theodore Wagener, PhD, Assistant Professor, Department of Pediatrics, University of Oklahoma Health Science Center\nSen.

        "title": "Philippines Disaster Draws Limited Interest, Donations | Pew Research Center",
        "raw_content": "The aftermath of Typhoon Haiyan in the Philippines is drawing less attention from the American public than a number of other major international disasters in recent years. About one-in-three Americans (32%) say they are very closely following news about the deadly typhoon that struck the Philippines on Nov. 8. By comparison, 55% of the public closely followed the aftermath of the 2011 tsunami in Japan, 58% followed the tsunami that struck coastlines around the Indian Ocean at the end of 2004, and 60% followed the 2010 Haiti earthquake.\nIn the new national survey, conducted Nov. 14-17 among 1,013 adults, Typhoon Haiyan tied with economic news as the second-most closely followed story this week. The health care rollout was the public\u2019s top story, with 37% following it very closely. Attention to the Philippines typhoon is similar to the levels of interest in the 2008 earthquake in China (30% followed closely) and the 2010 earthquake in Chile (27%).\nUp to this point, the share of Americans making donations to the Philippines trails donations to natural disasters that got more attention: 14% say they have donated to storm relief efforts. The share of the public that has donated so far is somewhat less than after the disasters in Haiti, Japan or the Indian Ocean.\nIn the past, many have donated to relief causes after the first week. For instance, after the earthquake in Haiti, far more said they donated in a survey conducted after 3-4 weeks (52%) than had said they donated in the first several days (18%).\nCurrently, in addition to the 14% who say they have already made a donation, another 17% say they plan to. But two-thirds (67%) say they do not think they will donate right now.\nCompared with some of these other previous international disasters, interest in the typhoon is lower across all age groups. Among adults 65 and older, 45% followed Haiyan very closely last week, compared to the 67% who closely monitored the Japanese tsunami. Interest has been particularly low among adults younger than 40, just 20% of whom have followed the aftermath in the Philippines last week, compared to the 47% who tracked news from Japan in 2011.\nAmong the 14% of adults who have donated so far, about twice as many donated via traditional means than over the internet or via text message. Roughly three-in-ten people who donated to relief efforts did so digitally (31%), while 63% donated in person, over the phone or through the mail. The primary means of digital donations was over the internet (22% of all donors), with just 7% donating by text message. Fully half (51%) of donors say they gave in person, such as at church. These patterns of donations are similar to other recent disaster relief efforts, with no growth in the share using digital donation tools.\nFor more on donations and interest in past foreign natural disasters, see \u201cMost Are Attentive to News About Disaster in Japan,\u201d March 22, 2011.\nAnd for a detailed study of donors to the \u201cText to Haiti\u201d campaign, see \u201cReal Time Charitable Giving,\u201d Jan. 12, 2012.\nHealth Care News Draws Attention\nThe most closely followed story this week was the ongoing rollout of the 2010 Affordable Care Act, with 37% saying they followed reports \u201cvery closely.\u201d Roughly equal shares of Republicans (43%) and Democrats (36%) followed health care news closely.\nSince the Oct. 1 launch date of the health care exchanges, there has been sustained public interest. But interest among younger adults continues to lag: About one-in-four (24%) of those under 30 and 30% of those 30-49 followed health care news very closely. By comparison, about half of adults 50 and older (49%) closely followed the rollout.\nAbout one-in-three followed news about Typhoon Haiyan and the U.S. economy very closely (32% each). In its second week in the headlines, bullying accusations within the Miami Dolphins football team were followed by 14% of the public. Men (17%) are more likely than women (11%) to say they followed the story very closely.\nAmericans express relatively limited interest in news about Toronto Mayor Rob Ford, as well as news about new guidelines for the use of statins or the FDA\u2019s proposal to severely limit the use of artificial trans fats.\nOil Spill Seen As Ecological Disaster; Government, BP Responses Faulted\nKatrina Relief Effort Raises Concern Over Excessive Spending, Waste",

        "title": "Record shares of Americans have smartphones, home broadband",
        "raw_content": "Record shares of Americans now own smartphones, have home broadband\nNearly nine-in-ten Americans today are online, up from about half in the early 2000s. Pew Research Center has chronicled this trend and others through more than 15 years of surveys on internet and technology use. On Thursday, we released a new set of fact sheets that will be updated as we collect new data and can serve as a one-stop shop for anyone looking for information on key trends in digital technology.\nTo mark the occasion, here are four key trends illustrating the current technology landscape in the U.S.\n1Roughly three-quarters of Americans (77%) now own a smartphone, with lower-income Americans and those ages 50 and older exhibiting a sharp uptick in ownership over the past year, according a Pew Research Center survey conducted in November 2016. Smartphone adoption has more than doubled since the Center began surveying on this topic in 2011: That year, 35% of Americans reported that they owned a smartphone of some kind.\nSmartphones are nearly ubiquitous among younger adults, with 92% of 18- to 29-year-olds owning one. But growth in smartphone ownership over the past year has been especially pronounced among Americans 50 and older. Nearly three-quarters (74%) of Americans ages 50-64 are now smartphone owners (a 16-percentage-point increase compared with 2015), as are 42% of those 65 and older (up 12 points from 2015). There has also been a 12-point increase in smartphone ownership among households earning less than $30,000 per year: 64% of these lower-income Americans now own a smartphone.\n2After a modest decline between 2013 and 2015, the share of Americans with broadband service at home increased by 6 percentage points in 2016. Between 2013 and 2015, the share of Americans with home broadband service decreased slightly \u2013 from 70% to 67%. But in the past year, broadband adoption rates have returned to an upward trajectory. As of November 2016, nearly three-quarters (73%) of Americans indicate that they have broadband service at home. But although broadband adoption has increased to its highest level since the Center began tracking this topic in early 2000, not all Americans have shared in these gains. For instance, those who have not graduated from high school are nearly three times less likely than college graduates to have home broadband service (34% vs. 91%). Broadband adoption also varies by factors such as age, household income, geographic location and racial and ethnic background.\nEven as broadband adoption has been on the rise, 12% of Americans say they are \u201csmartphone dependent\u201d when it comes to their online access \u2013 meaning they own a smartphone but lack traditional broadband service at home. The share of Americans who are smartphone dependent has increased 4 percentage points since 2013, and smartphone reliance is especially pronounced among young adults, nonwhites and those with relatively low household incomes.\n3Nearly seven-in-ten Americans now use social media. When the Center started tracking social media adoption in 2005, just 5% of Americans said they used these platforms. Today, 69% of U.S. adults are social media users. Social media is especially popular among younger adults, as 86% of 18- to 29-year-olds are social media users. But a substantial majority of those ages 30-49 (80%) and 50-64 (64%) use social media as well. Only about one-third (34%) of Americans 65 and older currently use social media, but that figure has grown dramatically in recent years: As recently as 2010, only around one-in-ten Americans age 65 and older used social media.\n4Half the public now owns a tablet computer. Though less widespread than smartphones, tablet computers have also become highly common in a very short period of time. When the Center first began tracking tablet ownership in 2010, just 3% of Americans owned a tablet of some kind. That figure has risen to 51% as of November 2016.\n10 facts about smartphones",

Col. Melinda Morgan, a Pentagon spokeswoman.\nEarlier this year, the Congressional Research Service said in a report the Advanced Hypersonic Weapon is part of the military's program to develop \"prompt global strike\" weapons that would allow the U.S. to strike targets anywhere in the world with conventional weapons in as little as an hour.\nThe Air Force and the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, or DARPA, are developing a similar vehicle.\nThe Pentagon said the Advanced Hypersonic Weapon, or AHW, vehicle is designed to fly long ranges within the earth's atmosphere at speeds that are at least five times the speed of sound.\nThe objective of Thursday's test was to collect data on technologies that boost the hypersonic vehicle and allow it to glide. The Army was also testing how the vehicle performed in long-range flight.\nThe Congressional Research Service report said the AHW would be able to maneuver to avoid flying over third party nations as it approached its target. The weapon would use a precision guidance system to home in on the target, it said.\nArmy tests hypersonic weapon over the Pacific - Yahoo! News\n1069, Comet",

        "raw_content": "Jeannette Sinclair\nPhoto courtesy of Tracy Kolenchuk\nJeannette\u2019s early musical influences were from her mother. She was raised on country music in a small community in northern Alberta. Her mom would gather her siblings together when they were small children and make popcorn and sing country music to them\u2014some of them \u2018hurtin\u2019 tunes (a kind of \u2018captive\u2019 audience!). Music was and still is a huge part of our lives. Her mother is 89 and still plays guitar and sings as lovely as she did when she was young. Like most young people, Jeannette discovered other genres of music in her teens and early twenties. It wasn\u2019t until the early 1990s that she got the bluegrass \u2018bug\u2019 after her late sister talked her into going to a small bluegrass festival at the Blueberry community hall. She was immediately drawn in by the amazing musicianship & beautiful harmonies of the performers, the late night parking lot picking, campfire singing and the friendliness of everyone there\u2014a true sense of community spirit that she\u2019d longed for after too many years of urban life.\nIn the mid-1990s she discovered a mutual love of bluegrass music with her new friend Sheila which led to them playing music together since then. Eventually, with a few female friends in bluegrass, they formed a band called Sweetgrass. Years later, drawing on some local bluegrass talent, they formed Wildwood Flower\u201d and now Prairie Sky. Jeannette considers herself blessed to play music that she loves with her \u2018sweetie\u2019 Ken, and great friends, Sheila and Alex. Although there is very little spare time to play music, she makes time for music that lifts her spirits and inspires her to keep learning and growing as a musician. And as her mom says \u201cnever give up\u2014keep practicing and carry on the tradition\u201d.\nSheila Hallett\nSheila Hallett took up the banjo in the mid-1990s with encouragement from her former work colleague, Jeannette Sinclair. A visit to the Blueberry Bluegrass and Country Music Festival with Jeannette and an introduction to the Northern Bluegrass Circle Music Society, presented her with a perfect opportunity to honor her love of music. The banjo just seemed the right instrument to learn. She settled into the bluegrass community, along with her children, and has become a committed volunteer for both the weekly bluegrass jamming circle and the annual Blueberry Bluegrass Festival. She has played in various Edmonton bluegrass bands over the years with Jeannette. She says \u2018fortune shined\u2019 when she, along with Jeannette and partner Kenny Mak formed Prairie Sky several years ago. Sheila\u2019s banjo playing has expanded with lead playing in a four-person bluegrass configuration. She is inspired by the band\u2019s harmonies and the opportunity for every member to step up to the mic and sing lead. Never one to shy away from a challenge, Sheila works to come up with tasty back-up and breaks for the many varied songs that members bring to the band. Maybe it\u2019s the autograph of Earl Scruggs inside her banjo\u2019s resonator that keeps her striving to improve as a player. A deep respect for bluegrass and great instrumentalists of any genre, Sheila pulls inspiration from a wide swath, including band members and the local music community.\nKenny started banging on bongo drums with chopsticks at an early age to Hank Williams \"Cawliga\". That started an interest in drums & percussion through high school, until he picked up the electric bass at 15 years old and never looked back.\nHe grew up with music in the house all the time. Family friends would come and play and sing in the living room, and that had a huge influence on him. He wanted to join in, and he even one time hauled his drum set to the living room. He decided that he should play an instrument more portable and appropriate, and naturally moved from drums to bass in the mid 1980's, then picked up a Ricky Skaggs album to learn from. Kenny was hooked on bluegrass from the first note.\nAfter many years of honing his skills in the \"closet\", he finally found his way to Fiddler's Roost in Edmonton, and discovered a warm & welcoming music community that provided the opportunity to perform. Kenny met his sweetheart Jeannette at Fiddler's Roost and even sang his first song with her (awww!). \"I'm very blessed to have a partner that loves music like I do, and that we play in a band together.\"\nKenny's listened and learned from many different bass players over the years. Geddy Lee from Rush is amazing. \"His finger work and dexterity compare to no one else.\" James Jamerson of the Funk Brothers is a legend of the Motown sound. \"I tried (and love) flat wound strings because of him.\" Victor Wooten of Bela Fleck & the Flecktones has incredible chops and is a really great teacher. Lee Rocker from the Stray Cats is a rockabilly wonder and his showmanship is a big influence on Kenny. \"Mike Bub from the Del McCoury Band and Nashville super group 18 South, is my mentor for slapping.\" A great, solid double bass player. And of course, the legend, Marshall Grant of Johnny Cash's \"Tennessee Two\", who was a huge part of Cash's famous \"boom-chicka-boom\" sound.\nIn 2015, Kenny produced and played numerous instruments on the CD project \"Three for the Show\" for local Edmonton country artist Chuck Porter.\nMarty Srayko\nWhen Marty was 11, his brother brought home an electric bass. It was a complete surprise and a defining moment, especially after his brother allowed him free access to the new instrument. Using the Hal Leonard instruction booklet that came with it, Marty soon taught himself some simple tunes. His brother, who had an eclectic music collection, provided the material and the method for how to listen to music and analyze its components, Marty further developed his ear by teaching himself guitar and learning how to solo. He joined a local wedding band at the age of 15 and later performed with various rock bands in pubs and halls. He became fascinated with Bluegrass and Folk music later in life upon hearing bands like The Tony Rice Unit and The Seldom Scene, and he developed his acoustic style while a member of a Calgary-based band, Deliverance. He started playing mandolin about 10 years ago, inspired by Adam Steffey, Sam Bush, Ricky Skaggs, and John Reischman. Over the last few years, he has continued to explore different acoustic music genres, while writing and jamming at home with his daughter. He recently discovered the wonderful bluegrass community in Edmonton, which has exposed him to new tunes, new styles, and great people, including his band-mates in Prairie Sky.",

        "raw_content": "Mental health crises account for one in ten military evacuations, figures released under FOI show\nMental health emergencies account for more than one in ten air evacuations of military personnel, new figures have shown. Over the last year 121 servicemen and women operating abroad were flown back to the UK as a result of mental health conditions including depression, anxiety, PTSD and stress. Mental health was the second most common reason for medical evacuation, after limb injuries. More people were evacuated for mental health than limb disorders, heart problems or spinal injuries.\nReturn to Operations\nPersonnel who are deemed to be unfit to continue on operations are flown back to the UK by helicopter or transport aircraft to receive medical treatment. Evacuations can take place for emergency treatment or to deal with long-term conditions that prevent personnel from carrying out their duties. After treatment, servicemen and women then either return to operations abroad or remain in the UK. The RAF Aeromedical Evacuation Service is available to evacuate service personnel 24 hours a day if necessary. The figures do not show instances of mental health problems that are dealt with without the patient returning to the UK, or where the patient travels on a commercial airline. Evacuations from operations or training exercises on British soil are handled by the NHS.\nArmy Most Likely\nThe figures, obtained by The Sunday Telegraph under freedom of information laws, cover the period from October 2017 to September 2018. Army personnel were the most likely to be evacuated for mental health, with 69 evacuations, followed by 35 in the Royal Navy and 17 in the RAF. The proportion of evacuations for mental health has almost doubled since the period between 2003 and 2010, when the UK was deployed in Iraq and Afghanistan, although the total number is slightly smaller. A total of 12.4 per cent of evacuations between 2017 and 2018 were for mental heath conditions, compared with 6.3 per cent between 2003 and 2010.\nResponding to the figures, a spokesperson for a military charity said: \u201cIt is important to respond quickly when people take that big step and ask for support, we have been asking the nation to call time on stigma and let those who serve our country know that it\u2019s okay to ask for help.\u201d The figures come after a Ministry of Defence statistical report found last month that Army personnel were at the highest risk of all three forces of deliberate self-harm during their service. The rates of self-harm among the forces as a whole stand at 2.8 per 1000, the figures show.\nSeries of Initiatives\nOver the last year, the MoD has rolled out a series of initiatives to improve the mental health of serving personnel and veterans. Under the government\u2019s military mental health and wellbeing strategy, unveiled in July, personnel undergo \u201cresilience training\u201d to help prevent depression and anxiety. Last February Gavin Williamson, the Defence Secretary, launched a new \u2018military mental health hotline\u2019 that allows servicemen and women to call the charity Combat Stress and discuss their mental health concerns.\nNot Increased\nA Ministry of Defence spokesman said: \u201cThe number of evacuations due to mental health has not increased. \u201cMilitary personnel are returned by air to the UK for a number of reasons, some of which are not necessarily medical emergencies. \u201cWe are committed to the mental health of our service personnel and have increased funding in this area by \u00a320 million. \u201cWe have also launched an emergency mental health hotline and are working with experts and charities to tackle any perceived stigma around talking about mental health.\u201d\nHow to get help | Do you need someone to talk to?\nThe following organisations offer free and confidential support over the phone:\nSamaritans \u2013 116 123.

        "raw_content": "Courthouse to fully reopen by Monday\nSpartanburg County courthouse operations should be back to normal next week as mold remediation work wraps up and employees move back into their offices.\nClerk of Court Hope Blackley also said she learned Tuesday that no HVAC sealant containing potentially harmful chemicals was ever used. Concerns by some at the courthouse that the sealant would be used during cleanup work led county officials to shut down portions of the building and temporarily relocate staff.\nThe second floor of the courthouse was reopened Thursday afternoon as staff from the Clerk of Court's office and other employees began moving back. The 7th Circuit Solicitor's Office will begin moving in Friday and plans to reopen on the third floor by Monday. The solicitor's office had been working out of the Spartanburg County Sheriff's Office, while second-floor employees had been relocated to the county's Emergency Operations Center on the first floor of the courthouse.\n\"Already started a slow move that will pick up dramatically tomorrow,\" said Murray Glenn, spokesman for the solicitor's office. \"We're meeting our court obligations but it's not been easy. \u2026 There's a lot of things you don't think about: private meeting room space, office supplies, getting mail, telephones. There's a lot of intricacies involved.\"\nIt remains unclear what the financial impact may have been from temporarily relocating courthouse employees.\nMost of the mold remediation work was nearing an end Thursday, but county officials continue to discuss long-term solutions for air quality issues in the 60-year-old building.\nMeanwhile, newly obtained records show county officials did not send out a request for bids from various companies when an initial air quality study was conducted in March. While seeking bid proposals is standard practice for governments, county officials instead directly hired a company they had used before to perform air quality testing.\nJMAC Environmental was hired to conduct the \"emergency comprehensive indoor air quality investigation\" at a cost of $44,180, later amended to $53,450 after the work was completed.\nThe tests showed the presence of mold in various parts of the courthouse, and short-term cleanup plans were made. Remediation work began over the summer.\nIn response to a Freedom of Information Act request, Deputy County Administrator Jim Hipp said the county felt it appropriate to solely reach out to JMAC for the work because of the \"familiarity and a desire of the county to maintain the same testing standards, coupled with the county's desire to expedite the comprehensive indoor air quality investigation.\"\nHe referenced a section of the Spartanburg County Procurement Code that allows for sole sources in emergency situations.\n\"This is a comprehensive indoor air quality investigation of the Spartanburg County Courthouse to ensure that testing gets done in a timely manner for Spartanburg County. JMAC was chosen for this task because of the past reports they have done for the county and we needed to keep the same standards,\" a procurement form signed by Hipp states.\nBlackley said she made the county aware of the building's mold issues back in 2014, after her staff and judges repeatedly expressed concerns.\n\"At that point, it could have been an emergency, but nobody did anything,\" Blackley said.\nBlackley said the results of the air quality study done by JMAC showed the problem was less serious than what the results showed in a separate study she had another company conduct with her own discretionary funds.\nShe said some inside the courthouse have doubts about JMAC, but said \"it is what it is\" when asked whether the county should have sought bids from other companies despite the urgency.\n\"I had my own office tested a couple weeks ago and paid for it out of my personal account. I wanted to see the difference and if there was a difference,\" Blackley said. \"I know there have been multiple conversations made to me from occupants working in the courthouse not having faith in JMAC.\"\nBlackley said her priority is the safety of those who work inside the building.\n\"I've taken a position of I don't want to put anybody in harm's way,\" she said.\nSource: http://www.goupstate.com/news/20160929/courthouse-to-fully-reopen-by-monday",

        "title": "Obama's AWOL Antiwar Protest - Ron Paul America",
        "raw_content": "Obama's AWOL Antiwar Protest\nBy James Bovard - July 15, 2017 at 09:34AM\nBarack Obama campaigned for the presidency in 2008 as a peace candidate. He signaled that he would fundamentally change America\u2019s course after the reckless carnage unleashed by the George W. Bush administration. However, by the end of Obama\u2019s presidency, the United States was bombing seven different foreign nations.\nBut Obama\u2019s warring rarely evoked the protests or opposition that the Bush administration generated. Why did so many Bush-era anti-war activists abandon the cause after Obama took office?\nOne explanation is that the news media downplayed Obama\u2019s killings abroad. Shortly after he took office, he was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize \u2014 not because of anything that he had achieved, but because of the sentiments he had expressed. Shortly after he accepted the Peace Prize, he announced that he would sharply increase the number of American troops in Afghanistan. Much of the media treated Obama\u2019s surge as if it were simply a military campaign designed to ensure that the rights of Afghan women were respected. The fact that more than 2,000 American troops died in Afghanistan on Obama\u2019s watch received far less attention in the press than did the casualties from Bush\u2019s Iraq war.\nIn early 2011, popular uprisings in several Arab nations spurred a hope that democracy would soon flourish across North Africa and much of the Middle East. Violent protests in Libya soon threatened the long-term regime of dictator Muammar Qaddafi, who had become a US ally and supporter in recent years. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and other advisors persuaded Obama to forcibly intervene in what appeared to be a civil war.\nIn March 2011, Obama told Americans that \u201cthe democratic values that we stand for would be overrun\u201d if the United States did not join the French and British assault on the Libyan government. Obama declared that one goal of the US attack was \u201cthe transition to a legitimate government that is responsive to the Libyan people.\u201d Qaddafi, who was dealing with uprisings across the nation, sent Obama a personal message: \u201cAs you know too well, democracy and building of civil society cannot be achieved by means of missiles and aircraft, or by backing armed members of al-Qaeda in Benghazi.\u201d\nEven before the United States began bombing Libya, there was no sober reason to expect that toppling Qaddafi would result in a triumph of popular sovereignty. Some of the rebel groups had been slaughtering civilians; black Africans whom Qaddafi had brought into Libya as guest workers were especially targeted to be massacred. Some of Qaddafi\u2019s most dangerous opponents were groups that the United States had officially labeled as terrorists.\nObama decided that bringing democracy to Libya was more important than obeying US law. The War Powers Act, passed by Congress in 1973 in the waning days of the Vietnam War, requires presidents to terminate military attacks abroad after 60 days unless Congress specifically approves the intervention. Immediately after the bombing commenced, Secretary of State Clinton declared during a classified briefing for members of Congress that \u201cthe White House would forge ahead with military action in Libya even if Congress passed a resolution constraining the mission.\u201d Echoing the Bush administration the Obama administration indicated that congressional restraints would be \u201can unconstitutional encroachment on executive power.\u201d\nAccording to the Justice Department\u2019s Office of Legal Counsel, Obama \u201chad the constitutional authority\u201d to attack Libya \u201cbecause he could reasonably determine that such use of force was in the national interest.\u201d Apparently, as long as presidential advisors concluded that attacking foreigners is in the US \u201cnational interest,\u201d the president\u2019s warring passes muster \u2014 at least according to his lawyers. Yale professors Bruce Ackerman and Oona Hathaway lamented that \u201chistory will say that the War Powers Act was condemned to a quiet death by a president who had solemnly pledged, on the campaign trail, to put an end to indiscriminate warmaking.\u201d\nThe US attack on Libya evoked almost no protests across the nation. After Qaddafi was killed, Secretary Clinton laughed during a television interview celebrating his demise: \u201cWe came, we saw, he died.\u201d But US missiles and bombs begat chaos, not freedom. Five years later, when asked what was the worst mistake of his presidency, Obama replied, \u201cProbably failing to plan for the day after what I think was the right thing to do in intervening in Libya.\u201d\nIn 2013, Obama decided to attack the Syrian regime of Bashar al-Assad. The Obama team alleged that the Assad regime had carried out a chemical weapons attack on Syrian civilians.\nA front-page Washington Post headline blared, \u201cProof Against Assad at Hand.\u201d But that hand remained hidden. On a Sunday talk show, White House Chief of Staff Denis McDonough admitted that the administration lacked evidence \u201cbeyond a reasonable doubt\u201d proving that the Syrian regime had carried out the gas attack. But McDonough asserted, \u201cThe common-sense test says [Assad] is responsible for this. He should be held to account.\u201d Obama administration officials also insisted that attacking Syria would boost American \u201ccredibility.\u201d But unless \u201ccredibility\u201d is defined solely as assuring the world that the president of the United States can kill foreigners on a whim, that is a poor bet. This type of credibility is more appropriate for a drunken brawl in a bar than for international relations.\nThe administration never provided solid evidence to back up its claim. Even Obama ally Sen. Tom Harkin (D-Iowa) characterized the evidence presented in a Capitol Hill classified briefing as \u201ccircumstantial.\u201d Rep. Justin Amash (R-Mich.) commented, \u201cThe evidence is not as strong as the public statements that the president and the administration have been making. There are some things that are being embellished in the public statements. The [classified] briefings have actually made me more skeptical about the situation.\u201d\nSeeking to rally the nation behind the cause, Obama called on Congress to authorize bombing Syria. But the American people had little stomach for another adventure abroad. There were a few protests \u2014 including one outside the White House on the Saturday when Obama was expected to announce that he had commenced bombing. I was there that day, along with a smattering of conservative and libertarian opponents to another war. The protest was a bit anemic until a couple busloads of ANSWER Coalition activists arrived from Baltimore. They had great signs \u2014 \u201cBombing Syria Doesn\u2019t Protect People \u2014 It Kills Them\u201d \u2014and they marched and chanted in unison better than most high-school bands. The US Park Police were unhappy with the protest and rode their horses into the middle of the group. Federal officials came up and threatened to arrest anyone who did not clear away from the street behind the White House. A handful of arrests were made and the crowd simmered down.\nBut when Obama made his a radio speech to the nation that afternoon, the chanting from the protest could be heard in the background. Obama announced that he was postponing a decision on bombing.\nHowever, in the summer of 2014, the ISIS terrorist group released videos of the beheading of hostages. That provided sufficient cover for Obama to commence bombing that group \u2014 and other targets in Syria. The media played its usual lapdog role. A Washington Post headline proclaimed, \u201cObama the reluctant warrior, cautiously selling a new fight.\u201d So we\u2019re supposed to think the president is a victim of cruel necessity, or what? A New York Times headline announced, \u201cIn Airstrikes, US Targets Militant Cell Said to Plot an Attack Against the West.\u201d \u201cSaid to\u201d is the perfect term \u2014 perhaps sufficient to alert non-brain-dead readers that something may be missing (e.g., evidence). By mid 2016, the Obama administration had dropped almost 50,000 bombs on ISIS forces (or civilians wrongly suspected to be ISIS fighters) in Syria and Iraq. A September 2016 Daily Beast article noted, \u201cIn January, the Pentagon admitted to bombing civilians on at least 14 different occasions. In July, an off-target airstrike in northern Syria killed more than 60 people.\u201d\nObama acted as if he was doing God\u2019s work by again bombing the Middle East. But the supposed beneficiaries were not persuaded. On the eve of the 2016 US November election, independent journalist Rania Khalek (who was visiting Syria) tweeted, \u201cI\u2019ve been asking Syrians who they want to win for president. The vast majority say Trump because they feel he\u2019s less likely to bomb them.\u201d Presidential rhetoric was not sufficient compensation for the lives and homes that would be destroyed by the increased onslaughts that Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton seemed to promise.\nAnti-war or anti-Republican?\nThousands of innocent foreigners were killed by US bombings and drone attacks during the Obama administration. In his 2016 State of the Union address, Obama scoffed at \u201ccalls to carpet bomb civilians.\u201d Perhaps he considered it far more prudent to blow up wedding parties instead (as happened during his reign in Yemen and Afghanistan). As long as White House or Pentagon spokesmen announced that the United States was using \u201cprecision bombing,\u201d media controversy over innocent victims was blunted, if not completely avoided.\nWhy did Obama suffer far less backlash than George W. Bush? Salon columnist David Sirota summarized an academic study released in 2013: \u201cEvaluating surveys of more than 5,300 anti-war protestors from 2007 to 2009, the researchers discovered that the many protestors who self-identified as Democrats \u2018withdrew from anti-war protests when the Democratic Party achieved electoral success\u2019 in the 2008 presidential election.\u201d\nSirota noted that the researchers concluded that \u201cduring the Bush years, many Democrats were not necessarily motivated to participate in the anti-war movement because they oppose militarism and war \u2014 they were instead \u2018motivated to participate by anti-Republican sentiments.\u2019\u201d\nThere have been plenty of stout critics of US warring in recent years \u2014 including Antiwar.com, The Future of Freedom Foundation, Ron Paul, the Mises Institute, and some principled liberals and leftists such as Counterpunch and Glenn Greenwald and The Intercept. But overall, the media spotlight rarely shone on US carnage abroad, as it did in earlier times. Perhaps the anti-war movement will revive if Donald Trump commences bombing new foreign nations. But it is clear that too many Americans have not yet learned the folly of \u201ckill foreigners first, ask questions later.\u201d\nReprinted with permission from the Future of Freedom Foundation.",

        "raw_content": "Now and Then by Dave Goetsch\nDave Goetsch, Executive Producer of The Big Bang Theory, reflects on his investment experience in the recent market downturn and contrasts his new perspective with memories of the 2008-2009 financial crisis.\nSeeing all the recent headlines about the sudden downturn in the stock market has transported me back to February of 2009, when I was close to despair. It\u2019s striking how different I feel now. In February 2009, the stock market was down around 50% from its high, and everyone seemed to feel like the sky was falling. I was familiar with this state of panic because my relationship to the financial markets was that I didn\u2019t trust them. They were always going up and down in ways no one could predict, and I couldn\u2019t trust those folks who said that they could anticipate what was going to happen. So when the market went down, I went down with it\u2014sinking into a depression, knowing there was nothing I could do.\nWhat a difference nine years make. I haven\u2019t changed because the stock market rebounded. I changed because I learned that there was a different way to think about investing. I was right not to trust those people who thought they could predict what was going to happen in the markets, but I was wrong in thinking that there was nothing to do. I\u2019ve learned that I can have a great investment experience if I just accept a few simple truths.\nI have to understand the uncertainty of the market. The stock market, as measured by the S&P 500 Index, has returned about 10% per year over the last 90 years,1 but there are very few individual years in which it has ever actually returned that amount. In fact, how many of those 90 years do you think the S&P 500 was up more than 20% or down more than 20% for that year? The answer is 40. Astounding, right? I wish somebody had explained that to me decades ago. Then I would have known to look at stock market returns in terms of decades\u2014not years, months, days, or hours. I would understand that so many of those articles and cable news pieces are just noise, designed to keep an audience obsessed and unsettled.\nI haven\u2019t changed because the stock market rebounded. I changed because I learned that there was a different way to think about investing.\nIn order to be a long-term investor, you have to have a long time horizon. This can be hard to remember when you\u2019re being assaulted by noise, but if you can stay strong, the results are stunning. By results, I don\u2019t mean the investment returns, which hopefully are good. The return I\u2019m talking about is how I feel every day. I worry less\u2014not just about the future, but also about the present. Of course, I know that there are no guarantees when it comes to investing, but I feel like I\u2019m going to be okay. I have a plan. There\u2019s no way I could\u2019ve done this without a financial adviser. I needed someone who could not just talk me through what my asset allocation should be, but also help me work through how I felt about investing and what exactly I could do to change my perspective. I was a mess nine years ago. Now, my outlook is totally different. The markets haven\u2019t changed; they still go up and down. The difference is, I don\u2019t anymore.\nIf you\u2019d like to discuss your investment strategy, please get in touch with us.\n1.

Most of the important changes were announced in the Autumn Budget, in November 2017. However, Scotland has also recently approved a new set of income tax rates and bands.\nHere is a list of the more important changes that take effect for 2018/19:\nThe personal allowance rises by \u00a3350 to \u00a311,850. However, the allowance will still be phased out at \u00a31 per \u00a32 of income over \u00a3100,000, leaving an effective 60% (61.5% in Scotland) tax band for between \u00a3100,000 and \u00a3123,700.\nThe higher rate threshold will rise by \u00a31,350 to \u00a346,350.\nScotland will see several changes to income tax. A new \u2018starter rate\u2019 of 19% applies to the first \u00a32,000 of taxable income and an \u2018intermediate rate\u2019 of 21% applies to taxable income between \u00a312,150 and \u00a331,580. The higher rate threshold will increase by \u00a3430 to \u00a343,430 and the higher rate will rise by 1% to 41%.\nNational Insurance thresholds rise, with the starting point for Class 1 (employers and employees) and Class 4 (self-employed) becoming \u00a38,424 a year. For employees and the self employed the upper limit for full rate contributions will also rise in line with the non-Scottish higher rate threshold (to \u00a346,350).\nThe dividend allowance will fall from \u00a35,000 a year to \u00a32,000 a year, reducing a higher rate taxpayer\u2019s net income by up to \u00a3975.\nCompany car scale rates will generally rise by 2% for petrol vehicles and 3% for diesels. The proportionate increase in tax can be more than those numbers suggest. For example, on a BMW 320d the charge rises from 24% to 27%, increasing the tax payable by one-eighth.\nThe pension lifetime allowance will increase for the first time since 2010, albeit only by \u00a330,000 to \u00a31,030,000.\nPension automatic enrolment minimum contributions will rise. In most instances that will mean a doubling for employers and a 150% increase for employees.\nThe number of changes, both positive and negative, can make April pay checks a puzzle if you are an employee. This is one reason why the start of the tax year is a good time to talk to your financial adviser. Click here to get in touch with us.\nHMRC has published its annual assessment of the cost of tax reliefs.\nEvery January HMRC publishes a table of \u2018Estimated costs of principal tax reliefs\u2019. Any Chancellor facing a budget deficit is bound to run his eyes down the list to see where the money is not coming in. After that assessment, they may well ponder whether some tweaking could benefit the Exchequer\u2019s coffers without causing too much of a political outcry.\nThis year\u2019s list has a familiar look to it in terms of the most expensive reliefs. At a cost of over \u00a3101 billion the largest factor by far is the personal allowance. The next three largest are equally untouchable for a Chancellor \u2013 national insurance contribution (NIC) thresholds and the capital gains tax exemption for main residences. Fifth largest is income tax relief for pension schemes, costing an estimated \u00a324 billion in 2017/18.\nThis is a curious figure because of the way in which Whitehall calculates it. Their definition adds together income tax relief on employer and individual contributions and pension fund investments, then deducts tax charged on pensions in payment. That deduction \u2013 which in effect relates to pension contributions made over many years \u2013 is estimated to be worth \u00a313.4 billion for 2015/16. Remove the deduction and the cost of pension income tax reliefs alone could be \u00a338\u2013\u00a340 billion in this tax year, the equivalent of nearly 9p on basic rate tax.\nFurther down the list, the tenth entry is NIC relief for employer pension contributions. This is forecast to cost \u00a316.9 billion in 2017/18. The government is virtually assured both income tax and NIC costs will increase substantially because of legislation raising automatic enrolment pension contributions by about 150% in 2018/19 and another 60% in 2019/20.\nAs the graph shows, the cost of pension reliefs has been rising anyway, despite government measures to rein them back with allowance cuts and other measures. If you or your employer are contemplating pension contributions, perhaps as part of year end planning, it is worth remembering the HMRC\u2019s list, and the temptation for any Chancellor to change pension relief. Give us a call if you\u2019d like to discuss your options.\nThe new Spring Statement replaces the Budget\nThere will be no Spring Budget this March, but that doesn\u2019t mean the Chancellor is staying silent.\nOn 13 March, the Chancellor will present a Spring Statement to the House of Commons, not a Budget. The next Budget should be in the autumn, probably November. The rationale for the revised schedule is to give more time to develop legislation and avoid the situation of changes taking effect from 6 April, but not reaching the statute book until three months or more later.\nThis problem was made worse in 2017, when the snap election meant most of the March Budget measures were put on hold. Some that took effect from 6 April 2017 \u2013 such as the reduction in the money purchase annual allowance \u2013 were in a Finance Act that only received Royal Assent on 16 November.\nDespite the new schedule, there seem to be plenty of people expecting a Spring Budget in March, perhaps because 2017 was an unusual year \u2013 with two budgets and three Finance Bills. However, 2018 should be much quieter on the tax front (assuming there is not another surprise election).\nWhilst there is no Budget, there may still be changes announced on 13 March that have immediate effect. Few Chancellors can resist the opportunity when they are in the parliamentary spotlight. Mr Hammond\u2019s predecessor was a classic example, as some of George Osborne\u2019s Autumn Statements were more like Budgets than the real thing.\nIf you are considering year end tax planning, then it could make sense to complete any transactions before 13 March. If you need of assistance in that planning, you should contact us as soon as possible.",

[I really started learning about it the second I found out I was pregnant]. The moment we heard her cry for the very first time, I'll never forget. This little person has completely changed our lives. I'm still awestruck that she is mine. She was part of me for 9 months. I felt her kicks, punches, and hiccups. I would daydream about what she might look like, and worry about things I had no control over.\nLove is one of those emotions that can take you on a roller coaster. It will make you cry tears of happiness, but also sadness. It can make you scream with joy, and in anger. It can make you say things you need to, but also say nothing when needed.\nMy love towards my daughter makes me so excited to see her grow up, but also sad that she's growing so fast. I get so proud about all her little milestones, like rolling over, that I reminisce about how just a couple months ago, I still had to support her head.\nAs a new mom, I didn't expect how many times throughout the day that I would look at my baby and think \"I can't believe you're mine\".

        "raw_content": "\u201cThere are not one hundred people in the United States who hate The Catholic Church, but there are millions who hate what they wrongly perceive the Catholic Church to be.\u201d -Venerable Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen\nThe Venerable Archbishop is well known for his observations that are as true today as they were when he said them over 50 years ago. The quote above is no different. The Catholic Church is most often hated not for what she is (or teaches), bur for what people mistakenly think she teaches. This has never been more true today then in the area of homosexuality, or same sex attraction.\nIn an effort to help Catholics understand what the Church really does teach on same sex attraction, let\u2019s take a look at the following misconceptions.\nWhy does the Church tell people who they can and can\u2019t love?\nWhen considering the Churches teaching on \u201cGay Marriage\u201d, the above question is a curious one. The Church forbids the very thing this statement contends she teaches. In fact, it is that commandment that actually demands we stand against the abuse of marriage called \u201cGay Marriage\u201d. To sum it up \u2013 we MUST love EVERYONE.Jesus said that the greatest commandment is \u201cYou shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the great and first commandment. And a second is like it, You shall love your neighbor as yourself. On these two commandments depend all the law and the prophets\u201d (Matthew 22:37-40). So, Jesus commanded that everyone must love everyone. However, God also tells us how to love \u2013 don\u2019t steal, don\u2019t kill, don\u2019t lie and so forth. This includes the fact that we are to express love differently to the different people in our lives. We don\u2019t love our parents the same way we love our best friends. We don\u2019t love our children the same way we love our coworkers. And we don\u2019t love our spouse the same we love anyone else.\nThe idea put forth in the above misconception (Why does the Church tell people who they can and can\u2019t love?) is not really about love, but about sex. How can the Church tell us who we can have sex with? That\u2019s the real question being asked. To understand the answer, we must understand that sexual relations do not equate love\u2026 and sex definitely is not a universal expression of love. Sex is a very specific and unique expression of love meant for specific people in a specific relationship. It is NOT how we express love to just anyone.\nSex is the unitive and life giving expression of love between a man and a woman in marriage. THIS is what God commands and thus the Church teaches. Not who we can love, but how to love. Because when we really think of it, we don\u2019t know how to love each other well.\nBut what does this mean? Why is sex just for a man and woman in marriage?\nWhen God created man and woman, he did so in a very special and amazing way. \u201cGod said, \u2018Let us make man in our image, after our likeness\u2018\u201d (Genesis 1:26). God is Father, Son and Holy Spirit \u2013 the Holy Trinity. The Father and Son love One Another completely and infinity. This love between the Father and Son is the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is also completely and infinity loved by the Father and Son and loves Them right back. So when God says, \u201cLet US make man in OUR image, after OUR likness\u201d God is saying that He is going to make man as a family of love, just like Him.\nThis is what follows next\u2026 \u201cSo God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them\u201d (Genesis 1:27). So, God created man and woman together as a family, a married couple united in love for one another. And what is the first thing God commands? \u201cAnd God blessed them, and God said to them, \u201cBe fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth and subdue it\u201d (Genesis 1:28). God commands sex. But NOT the meaningless sex that our world has embraced. When God commands sex He is commanding the full, total and faithful commitment of love He created marriage to be, so it would image Him. And this love is fruitful. Not just with children, but in the way marriage lifts up all of creation and reveals the Holy Trinity to the whole world. That is what the word \u201csubdue\u201d means here. Not to conquer and destroy or enslave, but to conquer and lift up.\nThis is the sacred and holy purpose of marriage that God created. The gift of sexuality is sacred. And our problem is not that we think about sex too much, but that we think too little of sex. It is sacred, majestic, holy and life giving. IT IS POWERFUL. It is not to be messed with or misused, or as we have seen, it\u2019s power will cause great harm.\nSo, to review, the gift of sexuality is a holy and powerful gift from God that is only for the unitiive and fruitful relationship of a married man and woman. Any other use is a misuse, and thus is not love.\nThe core teaching of Christianity is tolerance \u2013 not judging, just like Jesus said. Why do we judge people who are homosexual? Would Jesus do this?\nFirst, the core teachings of Christianity are as follows: Jesus is God and love God and neighbor. The commandment about judging does not refer to never telling someone that they sinned. Rather it means not to condemn someone, because you don\u2019t know what\u2019s in their heart; only God does. So, I can tell someone that it is wrong for them to hit their child, but I can\u2019t condemn them to Hell for it, because I\u2019m a sinner too and we are all redeemed and judged by Christ alone.\nThis means that sometimes you are going to have to tell your neighbor that what they are doing is harmful to their souls, even if this upsets your neighbor, even if your neighbor will not be your friend anymore, even if they call you a bigot. If someone is thinking about having an abortion, for example, they need to be counseled against it not only for the life of the unborn baby, but for the soul of the mother. This comes from the Spiritual Works of Mercy to \u201cadmonish the sinner\u201d and \u201cinstruct the ignorant.\u201d These Spiritual Works have their root in the commandments of Jesus in the Bible. In Matthew\u2019s Gospel Jesus says:\n\u201cIf your brother sins against you, go and tell him his fault, between you and him alone. If he listens to you, you have gained your brother. But if he does not listen, take one or two others along with you, that every word may be confirmed by the evidence of two or three witnesses.\u201d -Matthew 18:15-16\nJesus tells us that we are to go to our brother and tell him his fault, but in private. If that doesn\u2019t work, take a few others with you and try to try and convince him. This is a striking command by Our Lord, and one very often ignored or done badly. But what comes next is even more shocking to society\u2019s present attitude toward the Catholic Church:\n\u201cIf he refuses to listen to them, tell it to the church; and if he refuses to listen even to the church, let him be to you as a Gentile and a tax collector. Truly, I say to you, whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.\u201d -Matthew 17-18\nJesus Christ says that those who do not listen to the teachings of the Church should be banished, but only after they have been given several chances to repent. Jesus is teaching His 12 Apostles here, the first bishops of the Church. He uses the same words He spoke to St. Peter two chapters earlier. He tells them if they bind and loose on earth it is also done in Heaven. Jesus is telling them that He is giving them the power to make authoritative decisions as the leaders of the Church.\nSo, Jesus Christ, who is God, tells us that if we refuse to listen to the Church in matters of morals and sin, it is a matter serious enough to get us banished from communion with the Church, or excommunicate us. This is not done when someone struggles with a particular sin. We all struggle this way. This is when someone does not struggle. In fact, they sin with no guilt at all, because they don\u2019t think the sin is really a sin.\nThe purpose of excommunication is to instruct. It is akin to a timeout for a child. The child refuses to stop his or her bad behavior, so they are given a timeout in a chair, in a corner, away from everyone else. The hope is for them to lean that their behavior was wrong. The same goes for someone who is excommunicated. The hope is that the seriousness of being excommunicated will wake the person up to the seriousness of their sin and they will repent.\nSt. Paul teaches about this more than once.\n\u201cBut understand this, that in the last days there will come times of stress. For men will be lovers of self, lovers of money, proud, arrogant, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, inhuman, implacable, slanderers, profligates, fierce, haters of good, treacherous, reckless, swollen with conceit, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, holding the form of religion but denying the power of it. Avoid such people.\u201d -2 Timothy 3:1-5\n\u201cI appeal to you, brethren, to take note of those who create dissensions and difficulties, in opposition to the doctrine which you have been taught; avoid them. For such persons do not serve our Lord Christ, but their own appetites, and by fair and flattering words they deceive the hearts of the simple-minded.\u201d -Romans 16:17-18\nIn First Corinthians St. Paul actually is talking about a specific man. St. Paul mentions that the excommunication is meant to save the man\u2019s soul.\n\u201cIt is actually reported that there is immorality among you, and of a kind that is not found even among pagans; for a man is living with his father\u2019s wife. And you are arrogant! Ought you not rather to mourn? Let him who has done this be removed from among you. For though absent in body I am present in spirit, and as if present, I have already pronounced judgment in the name of the Lord Jesus on the man who has done such a thing. When you are assembled, and my spirit is present, with the power of our Lord Jesus, you are to deliver this man to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that his spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.\u201d -1 Corinthians 5:1-5\nWe are not supposed to take the Bible literally. We do not have to take literally the Old Testament commandments against homosexuality.\nYou are right that as Catholics we do not take the whole Bible literally, but we do take some literally. The Catholic Church, from the beginning, gave us the Bible and has been the Bibles rightful and final interpreter. As well, the Church also passes on her teaching through Sacred Tradition, which is equally important to Sacred Scripture (see 1 Thessalonians 2:13 and 2 Thessalonians 2:15). That is why we can\u2019t just dismiss parts of Scripture (like part\u2019s of the OT that we don\u2019t like) or interpret Scripture to mean what we would like it to mean. However, in the case of homosexual actions, both the New Testament (Romans 1:24-32) and the Catechism of the Catholic Church (paragraphs 2357-2359) teach that these actions are wrong. So, well anything Jesus said about homosexuality (or about abortion or spousal abuse or equal pay for equal work) was not recorded in the Gospels, His Apostles and His Church have spoken clearly on these things ever sense.\nNotice I said \u201chomosexual actions\u201d and not just homosexuals. Those with same sex attraction are equal in dignity with all human persons. They are to be loved, which is exactly why the Church will not tell them that homosexual behavior is OK, when it is the clear teaching of the Church, from Christ to the Apostles to now, that it is not OK. Just like a good parent who will not allow their child to do things harmful to their soul or body, Holy Mother Church takes the same stand, out of love for us and love for Christ. Remember what I wrote above, sex is a sacred gift from God meant for the unity of the married couple and the creation of new life. Any use of sexuality outside of this reason is an abuse of it and therefore sinful.\nDidn\u2019t Jesus eat with the sinners? If he could accept them, way don\u2019t we?\nJesus spent time with the outcasts of His time and eat with them, but He did not do this to confirm them in their sin. He did not tell them, \u201cI love you, don\u2019t worry if you want to keep on sinning.\u201d He told them this, \u201cIf you love me you will keep my commandments\u201d (John 14:15). He also said the following to His Apostles:\n\u201cDo not think that I have come to bring peace on earth; I have not come to bring peace, but a sword. For I have come to set a man against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law; and a man\u2019s foes will be those of his own household. He who loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; and he who loves son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me; and he who does not take his cross and follow me is not worthy of me. He who finds his life will lose it, and he who loses his life for my sake will find it. He who receives you receives me, and he who receives me receives him who sent me\u201d (Matthew 10:34-40).\nNow, does this make it difficult to be Catholic? Would it not be easier to just go with society and call those who think this way homophobes and bigots? Yes it would, in some ways, but being Catholic is not easy. Love is not easy. Love means telling those we love when they are hurting themselves. Love means wanting what is best for the other\u2026 and the best is God. If we see someone in a house that is burning around them, but they don\u2019t notice, do we not tell them and try to rescue them? Do we fear we will upset them? The same goes for the times we see those we love not just sinning, but persisting in a sin to the extent that they don\u2019t even realize it is sin. They don\u2019t even realize they are hurting themselves. They don\u2019t even realize their house burning around them.\nTrue love means being truthful, even when the truth hurts.",

        "raw_content": "Suddenly a sound from heaven like the howling of a wind\nfilled the entire house where they were sitting. Acts 2:2\nA strange thing happened at Saint John\u2019s this past Sunday morning. Fr. Al Stott gave a testimony about his heart valve surgery the Tuesday before last, and, here he was, only five days later, standing and serving the Lord. That is a miracle \u2013 both a medical science miracle and a healing miracle, which in my book is all the same. Al held the prayer blanket he received from Saint John\u2019s. He had it with him in recovery and he testified that he felt the power of prayer from the congregation and the Holy Spirit. This is not the strange part. It\u2019s an out and out blessing of huge proportions, thanks be to God.\nHere\u2019s the strange part. I was holding the prayer blanket up so the congregation could see it, hands raised above my head and I remember my arms getting tired. Al was on my right, his right hand holding the microphone, his left touching the blanket. As he was talking, the bottom part of the blanket started to curl upwards like there was a breeze blowing it. I thought Al was doing it until I saw his left hand. I\u2019ve been told by a couple of people that they saw the same thing \u2013 one behind me, the other to my right next to the piano. One person saw two hands pushing through the blanket. She then demonstrated with the hem of her shirt. She thought I was doing it until she saw my hands at the top of the prayer blanket. After Al\u2019s testimony, I turned to see if a breeze was coming in through an open door; it wasn\u2019t because the door was closed. The a/c was on, but it doesn\u2019t blow in that direction. Nevertheless, something was blowing that blessed blanket.\nI\u2019ve written about the Hebrew word, ruach, and how it can mean spirit, Holy Spirit, breath, breath of life, and wind. Ruach is what was blown into the nostrils of the mud-shaped human and made life. Ruach blew over the waters of the earth before God said, \u201cLet there be light.\u201d I think Ruach explains what happened to Al\u2019s prayer blanket. In a larger sense, Ruach is also what happened to Al during his surgery and recovery.\nVisitors to Saint John\u2019s have commented on the feeling of Spirit and peace in the church and the warmth of love from the congregants. That is all from the Holy Spirit. Ruach is a spirit (both upper case and lower case) of unity. There is love in unity.\nAll this month, during our Stewardship drive, you are hearing stories of how the ministry and mission of Saint John\u2019s has impacted people. Although we have not (yet) heard the sound of the rushing Wind, we have seen its presence in our midst. It even includes the playful Spirit of the Lord that will blow a prayer blanket. And, come to think of it, that is not strange at all. It is simply a blessing from God,",

        "title": "Savvy Sheep: Weekly Tidbit: True Love is a Cross",
        "raw_content": "A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.--Proverbs 17: 17\nToday I am reminded of a conversation I had with a friend a few years back, about a mutual friend who had done something to offend us both the day before. My ears were still stinging over the matter, but she was near tears, even in a crowded public lunch room. I still remember her saying, \"I know Christians are supposed to forgive, but what can I do? My heart is breaking. I'm not sure I can forgive. Not for this.\"\nI was troubled. I was still angry, too, and it was true, that wasn't a very Christian way to behave. I looked down at my plate and begged God to give me a reply. Suddenly Proverbs 17: 17 came to mind and I shared it with her. If \"a friend loves at all times,\" shouldn't that include all the times the other person doesn't seem to \"deserve\" that love? If we call ourselves friends, it is a requirement to love, and forgiveness is a key part of that love. If we are a friend, we go on being a friend, even when our friend becomes our enemy (Matthew 5: 43-45). Didn't Jesus love us at all times, even when it wasn't returned in kind? How about that moment when those He loved were nailing Him to a cross?\nThe implications of this still shake me to my foundations from time to time. I have seen the end of many friendships, and yet I feel God calling me to remain a friend in my heart, even to those who have done great harm to me and who have written me off long ago. I must start by forgiving the wrong--that is, not holding it against that person, no matter how it hurt. You see, Jesus said, \"For if you forgive men when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive men their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins,\" (Matthew 6: 14-15 NIV). Unforgiveness makes the other person something less-worthy of love or compassion than I am. By forgiving, I put that person above myself by counting that person as worthy of favor, just as I would hope for forgiveness for my own transgressions.\nThis is not as the world sees love, friendship, and forgiveness. Outside of the Bible, I see little support in this world for the idea of being a friend, even to an enemy. My \"Quotationary\" added a quote under Forgiveness that I thought I'd quote here:\nWho pardons easily invites offense. --Pierre Corneille (1606-1684). Cinna, 4.1, 1639, tr. Noel Clark, 1993\nIn effect, Corneille seems to be saying that we should not be quick to forgive, because that only invites more trouble for ourselves. That is true! However, this is what God has called us to do. We are not here to advance ourselves, or protect our own interests. We are here to follow God's example, and He carried out that example, all the way to the cross. You see, love, friendship, and forgiveness are not real in our hearts if they vanish on a whim. If they are real, they do not fail or change with the situation. This is how Jesus demonstrated that what He felt for us was real--He stuck with it, even to death.\nToday we must ask ourselves this question: Is our love real? Can we be real friends and brothers to our neighbor, even at great personal cost?\nJust a thought. Until next time, stay savvy!\nLabels: Christianity, counting the cost, forgiveness, relative morality, sacrificial love, testimony\nYes. True love is a cross. Thank you for reminding us again.",

Jarrad Davis Jersey . Speaking to TSN 1200 on Friday evening, Bryan Murray said he has not made any final decisions on his team for next season \u2013 and that includes giving a formal vote of confidence to head coach Paul MacLean. When asked directly about MacLeans job security moving forward, Murray did not make any guarantees for his head coach or any of his players. \u201cI dont have a definite answer to that, but Pauls got a contract going forward. He was Coach of the Year last year and I dont know what happened this year necessarily as far as performance is concerned,\u201d Murray said. \u201cI think hes a very good coach and I think he has the ear of the players in the room. We had some really tough outings and its shared amongst a lot of people \u2013 myself included. We thought this team was better. We thought we had enough skill here to offset a couple of little things we were missing last year \u2013 and it didnt work out. Was that because of the departure of Daniel Alfredsson? Was it because we overestimated a couple our young guys? I think all of those evaluations will take place and will continue. With 10 games to go, well be watching very closely with the effort that is put forward here. Im certainly not planning to make any decisions until the 82 games have gone by and well make a decision based on the whole year.\u201d Murray also elaborated on the prognosis of Bobby Ryan, who underwent surgery on Thursday in Montreal to repair a sports hernia injury that had been plaguing him for most of the season. Murray indicated that Ryan should be able to resume his off-ice training in a few weeks and his summer program should not be affected. Ryan \u2013 who had a team-leading 23 goals at the time of his injury \u2013 had a disappointing first season as the Senators failed to make the playoffs and he did not reach the 30-goal plateau. However, Murray was quick to point out that his injury played a major role in his lower productivity and the front office remains committed to him long-term. Ryans contract expires at the end of next season and while the Senators are not allowed to start formal negotiations on an extension until July 1st, Murray was adamant the club would push hard to keep him in Ottawa. \u201cI think hes going to be happy to talk to us. We certainly plan to try to keep him, we hope to get something done with Bobby so he will have a long career in Ottawa,\u201d said Murray. While Murray cannot open his contract talks with players like Ryan and Jason Spezza until July 1st, he can start negotiating with a pending free agent for his summer in Ales Hemsky. Acquired by the Senators at the trade deadline, the 30-year-old has been a nice addition to the Sens lineup and has found chemistry with Spezza on a consistent basis. Murray has not opened formal negotiations with Hemskys camp, but says that will be coming soon. \u201cIve said hello to his agent and Ive talked to Ales a little bit and I get the impression he likes it here, he likes the city and he likes the way hes been treated. Until you start talking and realize what the commitment is \u2013 term and dollar wise \u2013 its hard to know. Certainly well have conversations and thats part of the reason why we traded for him at the deadline. We thought if we could get him on board here and he gets to know the group and how we operate, it might be easier for us to negotiate with him and can be an advantage for us.\u201d Murray also said he yet to open up negotiations with netminder Robin Lehner, who is set to become a restricted free agent this summer. While he has had a down year with only eight wins in 32 games and a 3.23 GAA, Lehner figures to be a major piece for the organization moving forward. And the general manager does not anticipate an issue re-signing the 22-year-old coming out of his entry-level deal. \u201cI know that Robin has indicated that he likes Ottawa and he wants to stay here,\u201d said Murray. \u201cWell get it done with Robin, but its just a matter of where he fits into our long-term plans here.\u201d Barry Sanders Jersey . Its a blessing and a burden for nine sons of former NHL players who are all expected to be taken in the first four rounds of the draft this weekend. Dwayne Washington Jersey . Earnshaw, 31, most recently spent time on loan in Israel with Maccabi Tel Aviv from Welsh club Cardiff City, which plays in Englands second-tier League Championship. Earnshaw began his career with Cardiff Citys youth program and turned professional in 1998. http://www.lionsfanspro.com/Black-Darren-Fells-Lions-Jersey.html?cat=925 .C. -- Eric Staal kept his focus after his apparent breakaway goal was waived off early in the third period.DUBAI, United Arab Emirates -- Stephen Gallacher of Scotland shot a final round 72 Sunday to become the first player to successfully defend the Dubai Desert Classic title, beating Emiliano Grillo of Argentina by one stroke. Gallacher fought back after four bogeys over his opening eight left him in a five-way tie for the lead after 11 holes. He won the 25-year-old tournament with an overall 16-under 272 for only his third victory in 18 years and 431 events on the European Tour. Grillo secured his best Tour finish with an overall 15-under 273 when he eagled the last hole for a round of 66. Frenchman Romain Wattel also shot a 66, including birdies on the last two holes, to finish tied in third on 14-under 274 with Brooks Koepka (70) of the United States. Rory McIlroy struggled with a 74 to finish tied for ninth while top-ranked Tiger Woods (71) birdied his closing three holes for a share of 41st with a 6-under 282. The 39-year old Gallacher eventually broke clear of the logjam atop the leaderboard to birdie Nos. 13, 16th and 17th before a regulation par at the last. \"It took everything I had to win today especially after the start I had when I bogeyed the first two holes,\" Gallacher said. Quandre Diggs Jersey. \"The good thing is that I was fortunate that no one was running away with the tournament ... The turning point came at 11 when I holed a nice putt for birdie.\" The win puts Gallacher into the top 40 in the world, putting him in strong position to play the Masters for the first time in his career. The top 50 in the world at the end of March get into the Masters. McIlroy began the last day two shots behind playing partner Gallacher but was 2-over after 10 holes before the first birdie of his round at the 11th. The Northern Irishman then bogeyed the 12th and 13th before only his second birdie of the round at No. 17. \"On the rare occasions I got the ball close, I didnt make any putts, so it was one of those days,\" McIlroy said. \"I thought if I could get to 16 under it would be good enough and it turned out that it was as thats what Stephen got to. I just wasnt able to play well enough to get there. It was just one of those days.

        "raw_content": "Women\u2019s Museum spotlights activism and Pussyhats at benefit dinner\nOne of the displays at the Women\u2019s Museum in Liberty Station.\nThousands of pink Pussyhats flooded cities all over the United States last January during the Women\u2019s March. Each woven strand proudly endured the frigid blusters as women held up their signs in proclamation that they would no longer be silenced, ever.\nNow, those revolutionary pink hats have joined the many pink shirts, pink gloves and pink signs of Women\u2019s March memorabilia flooding the halls of the Women\u2019s Museum of California to celebrate the events happening right now in women\u2019s history.\n\u201cWe were just overwhelmed with donations for this year\u2019s exhibit,\u201d said Melissa Jones, director of marketing for the Women\u2019s Museum. \u201cWe have signs, we have buttons, we have T-shirts\u2026 my personal favorite, though, are these pink boxing gloves someone brought to the march and had all the participants sign them.\u201d\nThe exhibit, \u201cMarching Towards Empowerment,\u201d has been open since last Friday, but will remain open during the museum\u2019s annual Fall Benefit Dinner, taking place Nov. 15. Not only will guests of the benefit have the opportunity to walk through the 100 years of Women\u2019s March history in America \u2014 admiring the letters of Susan B. Anthony, political cartoons from years past and Pussyhats from last year\u2019s march \u2014 but will also have the chance to meet the creator of the hats herself, activist Krista Suh.\n\u201cI\u2019m looking forward to celebrating the good work the Women's Museum is doing, and the unique time for women in our history that we are witnessing right now,\u201d said Diane Peabody Straw, the museum\u2019s executive director. \u201cWe see the effects this museum has on the community first-hand through the conversations women are having with one another. This is why I\u2019m looking forward to Krista speaking about her activism and the importance of representation for women.\u201d\nBeing a screenwriter, artist, and activist, Suh refers to herself as a \u201cCraftivist.\u201d She recently wrote a book titled, \u201cDIY Rules for a WTF World: How To Speak Up, Get Creative and CHANGE THE WORLD,\u201d sharing her tools, tips, experiences and \u201crules\u201d for getting bold, getting out there, and getting the world to change. While her Pussyhats will be on display only, her book will be available for purchase at the benefit dinner.\n\u201cKrista\u2019s vision just fit so well with this year\u2019s exhibit,\u201d said Jones. \u201cOur whole goal is to empower women, and what better way to do that than to hear a female leader like Krista speak and motivate others to act?\n\u201cWe\u2019re not just four walls that you hang stuff on. We are a living, breathing part of the women\u2019s movement and a safe space where people can be part of a community that shares in their emotions about these topics, whether you\u2019re a man or a woman.\u201d\nIn addition to Suh as their keynote speaker, Peabody Straw anticipates the museum hosting City Attorney Mara Elliot and San Diego City Councilman Todd Gloria as additional speakers. There will be an opening reception and cocktail hour as well as a sit-down multi-course dinner with a theme of \u201cwine, cheese and chocolate.\u201d\nIn addition, live music performed by renown female artists will conclude the evening. Though the event is very much a celebration of women, Jones says men are welcome to attend.\n\u201cIt\u2019s their history too,\u201d said Jones. \u201cWhile women need to know they can become president or a CEO or even military leaders, men need to learn that women are their equals and can be their leaders and can be their bosses.\u201d\nMost museums lack telling the women\u2019s story, but we\u2019re witnessing history happen in real time. This exhibit and this benefit put it all into context.\u201d\nLocated in Liberty Station (2730 Historic Decatur Road), the Fall Benefit Dinner will take place at 6 p.m. Tickets start at $125 and can be purchased at womensmuseumca.org. While the museum\u2019s newest exhibit will be open to explore the night of the benefit, it will remain in exhibition through January, just in time for the Women\u2019s March of 2019.\n\u201cThat\u2019s the beauty of it all,\u201d said Jones. \u201cYou can go to the Women\u2019s March downtown and then stop here and see the march exhibit and get empowered to just go and do something. I mean, that\u2019s really what this is all about, being inspired to go out and make a difference in the world. That\u2019s the point of all this.\u201d\nWhere: 2730 Historic Decatur Road.\nWhen: 6 p.m. Nov. 15.\nInfo: For tickets and more information, visit womensmuseumca.org.",

        "raw_content": "City reaches agreement with environmental groups to address pollution in Mission Bay, Rose Creek\nSailboats in Mission Bay. / Photo by Thomas Melville\nLocal nonprofit environmental organizations San Diego Coastkeeper and Coastal Environmental Rights Foundation (CERF) have reached agreement with the City of San Diego regarding major stormwater infrastructure projects to improve water quality in several critical water bodies including Mission Bay, Rose Creek, San Clemente Creek, and the Tijuana River.\nIn addition to improving local water quality, the required attention and spending will help to bring the City into compliance with federal and state clean water legal requirements.\nPolluted urban runoff represents the San Diego region\u2019s primary threat to water quality. Once water from rain, irrigation flows, leaks, or other surface waters begins to flow over hard city surfaces, it picks up accumulated urban pollutants, such as oil, grease, pesticides, particulate metals, pet waste, toxins, bacteria, and viruses. The resulting polluted runoff flows untreated through San Diego's stormwater system and into local rivers, bays, and coastal waters, where it poses a serious risk to human health and wildlife alike.\nUnder the agreement, the City will upgrade practices for handling stormwater, as well as human and solid waste, at five major City-owned facilities: Miramar Landfill, Metro Biosolids Center, North City Reclamation Plant, Point Loma Wastewater Treatment Plant, and South Bay Water Reclamation Plant.\nAdditionally, Coastkeeper and CERF negotiated for the City to contribute $35,000 to San Diego Audubon Society, which will use the funds to improve water quality and restore habitats in and around Mission Bay.\n\u201cThe City\u2019s own recent audit of its stormwater department revealed a long history of failing to prioritize stormwater infrastructure and management practices needed to protect clean water, public health, and our beaches and streams,\u201d said Coastkeeper executive director and managing attorney Matt O\u2019Malley. \u201cThese failures were also evident in the City\u2019s handling of its own facilities, which for years have been polluting Mission Bay and other local waterways where children, families, and wildlife depend on clean water.\u201d\nEarly last year, Coastkeeper and CERF observed that the City was discharging stormwater laden with toxic pollutants, including bacteria from human waste, dissolved metals, and excess nutrients directly into local waters during rainstorms.\nThe investigations identified possible impacts to Rose Creek, San Clemente Creek, Mission Bay, Tijuana River, and ultimately, the Pacific Ocean. The groups noted to City officials that pollutant levels leaving the Miramar Landfill and entering into Mission Bay were the highest they had seen from any single facility in the county.\nRegarding the negotiation process and settlement ultimately achieved, Marco Gonzalez, CERF\u2019s executive director and attorney with Coast Law Group LLP noted, \u201cWe have a longstanding working relationship with the City\u2019s stormwater and public utilities departments, so we were confident they would take our concerns seriously and allow us to achieve environmental benefits without having to engage in expensive litigation.\u201d\nActions taken by the City under the agreement will ensure any water discharged at the five facilities subject to the agreement meet the requirements of the Clean Water Act, standards designed to protect human and environmental health.\nAll three parties jointly agreed on settlement terms, which were approved by the United States District Court for the Southern District of California. The City plans to make all necessary improvements and modifications to its practices at these facilities by November 2023.",

Now, Microsoft promised to pay a quarter million dollars to those who could help them and law enforcement officials to identify and catch criminals.\nRustock consist of computers running Microsoft Windows, and was capable of sending up to 25,000 spam messages per hour from an infected PC. At the height of its activities, it sent an average of 192 spam messages per compromised machine per minute. Reported estimates on its size vary greatly across different sources, with claims that the botnet may have comprised anywhere between 150,000 to 2,400,000 machines.\nSize of the botnet was increased and maintained mostly through self-propagation, where the botnet sent many malicious e-mails intended to infect machines opening them with a trojan which would incorporate the machine into the botnet.\n\u201cThis reward offer stems from Microsoft\u2019s recognition that the Rustock botnet is responsible for a number of criminal activities and serves to underscore our commitment to tracking down those behind it. While the primary goal for our legal and technical operation has been to stop and disrupt the threat that Rustock has posed for everyone affected by it, we also believe the Rustock bot-herders should be held accountable for their actions.\u201d Richard Boscovich, senior attorney in the Microsoft Digital Crimes Unit, said in a blog post.\nYou can find free information and resources to clean your computer on Microsoft support website support.microsoft.com/botnets.\nBotnet, Cybercrime, Cybercrime & Hacking, Malware, Rustock, Spam, Trojan",

        "title": "Safety Assessment: Prevention through Design",
        "raw_content": "Safety Assessment: Prevention through Design\nBlog Authors: Paul Gantt, CSP and Ron Gantt, CSP, ARM\nA few blogs ago we talked about the analogy of the tiger and the hierarchy of controls. We talked about how the best way to protect employees from a tiger is to eliminate the tiger. However, that\u2019s only part of the story. Because if we wait for the tiger to come to the zoo and then decide to remove the tiger to protect people from the it, haven\u2019t we exposed people to risk in between the time we brought it on site and the time we removed it from the site?\nThis is why some listings of the hierarchy of controls list \u201crisk avoidance\u201d as the most effective control. The difference between risk avoidance and elimination is that elimination removes the hazard from the site after it has been introduced, i.e. after employees have been exposed to the risks. Risk avoidance though avoids bringing the hazards onsite altogether. Of course, your ability to avoid the risks relies on one key fact - that you're pro-actively identifying the risks you may face before they come on site. This is the essence of Prevention through Design (PtD). As we said in our video, PtD is a concept that forces you to think about hazards and risks at the only point in time where the risks do not actually exist \u2013 during the conceptual design phase. In this way PtD is inherently proactive. It forces you to anticipate hazards and risks and to find ways to control those hazards effectively before employees are exposed to the hazards.\nIf you think about it, PtD borders dangerously close to common sense. Wouldn\u2019t it be nice if instead of always reacting to hazards and risks, your safety system was anticipating and controlling them before they even hit the front gate? Unfortunately, most organizations don\u2019t practice PtD principles, and those that do typically only do it in one area of their business (e.g. process safety management for chemical facilities). This means that most organizations are always playing \u201ccatch-up\u201d with their safety systems.\nThink about your organization \u2013 when do you identify hazards and controls for those hazards? If you\u2019re like most organizations you\u2019re doing it after the hazards are introduced. We wait until the chemical is brought on site to read the MSDS, employees have to be at their desks before an ergonomics evaluation is done, we add the lockout/tagout points once the machine is in the shop, or we wait until the employee is onsite to try and make them safe.\nSo, this means a couple things. First, employees may be exposed to the hazard before the controls are introduced. Second, it typically is too late after the hazards are introduced to use the higher order controls. Once the machine or process is designed, it\u2019s hard to design out the hazards. This means we tend to rely on lower order controls, such as administrative controls and personal protective equipment (PPE), meaning that the level of risk reduction may not be sufficient. PtD is a mindset change, moving the focus from the operational phases of work to the design phases. It moves us from reactive safety to proactive safety. The focus moves from relying on front line workers to do the right things all the time to focusing on the entire organization, such as procurement, engineers, and supervisors to make the safety program work. In this way, PtD is not just a hazard and risk reduction concept, it\u2019s a culture change concept.\nTags: employee assessments, safety assessment",

Martin Luther King Jr.\u2019s campaign to lift poor people is holding its first national mobilization, with actions and events planned Monday in 32 states and the nation\u2019s capital.\nPoor people, clergy and activists in the Poor People\u2019s Campaign plan to deliver letters to politicians in state Capitol buildings demanding that leaders confront what they call systemic racism evidenced in voter suppression laws and poverty rates.\n\u201cI\u2019ve been waiting for almost 50 years for this to actually happen,\u201d said Mendez, 68.\nThe campaign is especially important now because the leaders who don\u2019t want to help the poor \u201cshould not have a free hand to say and do whatever they want and there be no resistance,\u201d he said.\nLed by the Revs. William Barber of North Carolina and Liz Theoharis of New York, the campaign officially began Dec. 4, 50 years after King started the first Poor People\u2019s Campaign. King was assassinated a few months later and \u201cnobody really picked it up\u201d until now, Mendez said.\nThe letters to politicians call for a new course in government. \u201cOur faith traditions and state and federal constitutions all testify to the immorality of an economy that leaves out the poor, yet our political discourse consistently ignores the 140 million poor and low-income people in America,\u201d the letter states.\nBarber, who will be among the group that delivers letters to the office of House Speaker Paul Ryan and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, said the campaign is building toward a \u201cseason of direct action and civil disobedience\u201d that begins on May 13 and continues through June 21, the anniversary of the slayings of three civil rights workers in 1964 in Philadelphia, Mississippi.\nThe actions, including a poverty tour, will be followed by more work as part of a multiyear campaign to build power \u201camong the poorest and most powerless communities,\u201d he added.\nAnd on Feb. 12 \u2013 the 50th anniversary of the sanitation workers\u2019 strike that brought King to Memphis, where he was assassinated \u2013 fast-food cooks and cashiers plan to walk off their jobs in Memphis to support higher wages and union rights. Protesters plan to march from Clayborn Temple to Memphis City Hall, the same route the sanitation workers took.\nThe most important part of the campaign is that the people who are hurting because of poverty and racism are its leaders, Theoharis said. \u201cI feel very positive that the real heroes and heroines of our country are coming together to cross all kinds of lines that usually divide us like race, gender, economic status, political party.\u201d\nLeslie Boyd of Candler has followed Barber since he began the \u201cMoral Monday\u201d protest movement in North Carolina almost five years ago. Her son, Mike Danforth, was 33 when he died of colon cancer in 2008 because he lacked insurance even though he had a job and couldn\u2019t afford the yearly colonoscopies that he needed.\nHer hope for the campaign is that it changes what she sees as a national narrative that not only blames the poor for the poverty but uses religion to do so. Too many people believe that \u201cif you were a good person, Jesus would bless you,\u201d she said.\n\u201cIt\u2019s not immoral to be poor,\u201d said Boyd, 65. \u201cIt\u2019s immoral to make people poor with our actions as a government and as a people.\u201d\nNext post Ensemble preserves old Negro spirituals\nPrevious post Smart money moves for black Americans in financial distress",

        "raw_content": "How to Avoid Traffic in Manila.\nFilled Under: Manila, Only in the Philippines, Solo Travel, Travel, Travel Tips, Traveling on a Budget\nPosted by: Shy - Saturday, July 30, 2016\nTraffic in Manila is the worst! Just a couple of days ago, I made an awful mistake of starting to travel to Silang Cavite at noon, on a Friday which fell on a pay-day. Awful! I was able to reach the gallery at 4:30pm and came back home at Cubao around 9:30pm.\nLooking back I wouldn't want to go through it again. Now the thought of doing a 9-5 job left a bitter taste in my mouth. If this is something that I would have to go through 5 days a week, I should be feeling lucky with my current freelance job.\nHere are the things that would have saved me a lot of time.\n5 Ways to Avoid Traffic in Manila\n1. Leave early and avoid rush hour\nI fell for the same mistake I did during the Pahiyas trip in May. I left later than planned, so I had to start my day in traffic as opposed to a smooth and sailing trip with fresh and cool morning breeze.\n2. You don't have to go to the bus terminal to get on a bus\nInstead, get one that's running on the road. Chances are there are still available seats, if not, there will be some soon. It's better that way than to go farther distance to go to the terminal, knowing that you'll have to go back to the same route you've been before.\n3. Take the MRT\nThe line may look intimidatingly long, but once they're accepting passengers, you'll notice that you'll get closer quickly. You'll just have to wait for minutes. Better that than waiting for hours in a bus. I noticed that it has been running a lot faster than usual. Fast enough that it made me feel scared for those people in it, at the same time, happy that at least they're moving fast unlike the bus that I was in.\n4. Try taking tricycle\nTricycles could go to streets that's not so traffic and make its way in between cars or along sidewalks. The point is, it's moving. The only con is that you'll inhale more smoke from exhaust and it's more expensive.\n5.Traffic is worst in roads entering Alabang but it gets better through Guadalupe\nStops at ortigas and continuous well through Santolan. When there's traffic, there's really no choice but to exercise patience. But hopefully with stricter road law implementation, and improved MRT system, it will get better. As for now, we just have to roll with the punches.",

She teaches widely across the social work curriculum, including Advanced Clinical Practice, Assessment and Diagnosis, and HBSE, among other courses. Dr. Ogden is a licensed clinical social worker whose practice experience includes working in a day treatment program for older adults with serious mental illness, inpatient psychiatry, and housing. Dr. Ogden\u2019s research involves using qualitative research methods to understand social phenomena that surround mental health and social work practice challenges. Recent projects have ranged from collecting and analyzing life histories of older adults with schizophrenia-spectrum diagnoses, to using focus groups to understand barriers and facilitators to the implementation of an evidence-based substance use intervention called \u201cSBIRT\u201d (Screening, Brief Intervention and Referral to Treatment). From 2012-2016, as a co-principal on a SAMHSA grant to integrate SBIRT into the social work core curriculum and practice, Dr. Ogden also helped lead the development and implementation of trainings for faculty, field instructors, and students. Currently Dr. Ogden is examining how principles of positive psychology might be applied to therapeutic work with older adults who carry diagnoses of schizophrenia-spectrum disorders. Her recently published articles appear in American Journal of Orthopsychiatry, Qualitative Health Research, Journal of Social Work Education, Journal of Social Service Research, Journal of Social Work in Disability and Rehabilitation, Qualitative Social Work, Social Work in Health Care, and Journal of Aging Studies.\nDr. Ogden presents papers regularly at national and international conferences, most recently on such topics as disability and social work education, narratives of aging with schizophrenia, and SBIRT. She serves as co-chair for the Council on Social Work Education\u2019s Council on Disability and Persons with Disability. As a doctoral student, she was honored to be awarded a Hartford Doctoral Fellowship from the John A. Hartford Foundation.

        "raw_content": "Stax records started life as the Satellite label in 1959, it was founded by a white Banker, Jim Stewart. He later went into partnership with his sister Estelle Axton, she owned the Satellite Record Shop, which was located at the front of a theatre, this was later turned into the Stax studio. The name Stax was formed by the first two letters of Stewart and Axton. Stax records was important in Black American music in the mid sixties with it's production of Southern soul music, also it had a mix of both black and white musicians and production staff. The first record on the Stax label was 112 Morning After by the Mar-Keys, who had previously recorded \"Last Night\" on Satellite 107 in June 1961.\nStax was distributed by Atlantic records who had a first refusal on any Stax recordings. The company issued other labels mainly Volt, which had Otis Redding as the main artist with 17 singles.\nSoul Ballads was the first album issued on Volt 411\nOther STAX Labels were\nH.I.P / SAFICE/ CHALICE/ ENTERPRISE/ JOTIS\nJOTIS had only 4 releases, all were soul gems starting with:\nJ-469 Same Thing All Over Again/Do The Sloopy Billy Young\nJ-470 I 'm A Lonely Stranger/Where you Lead Me Arthur Conley\nJ-471 Baby Cakes/I'm Missing You Loretta Williams\nJ-472 There's A Place For Us/Who's Fooling Who Arthur Conley\nThese records were produced by Otis Redding and Jim Stewart. On the recording of \"Same Thing All Over Again\" by Billy Young, Otis can be heard singing towards the end of the record, it also has a haunting trombone solo.\nThe session musicians were Booker T and The Memphis Group and the brass section supplied by the Mar-Keys. They played on hundreds of sessions over the years and had many a hit tune in the charts.\nThe session musicians backed many artists whose records were not issued on Stax but put out on Atlantic records. Two such Artists were Wilson Pickett and Don Covey, the soul classic \"In The Midnight Hour \" was recorded in May 1965. It was written by Pickett and Steve Cropper Later in June Don Covey recorded \"See Saw\" and \"Sookie Sookie\" both with the unmistakable Stax sound, what a summer that was !!!\nSong writing was strong at Stax, William Bell who had started with the company back in 1961, wrote \"You Don't Miss Your Water\", which made the pop chart that year. After several singles including \"Any Other Way\", William formed a writing partnership with organist Booker T. Jones and in 1965 after leaving the army, the single \"Crying All By Myself \" was issued. \"Don't Stop Now\" on the flip side remains an unknown brilliant dance record, which was picked up by the all nighters at the time. \"Share What You Got\" backed by \"Marching Off To War\" are superb examples of the Stax Memphis Sound. Hits followed with the up tempo \"Never Like This Before\", the slower \"Everybody Loves A Winner\" and \"Everyday Will Be Like A Holiday\". In March 1968 \" A Tribute To A King\" was released, which was written a few days after Otis Redding's tragic death. It was issued on the B side of \"Everyman Ought To Have A Woman\" both very fine ballads with a string arrangement.\nIn May 1968 the contract with Atlantic records ceased and the Stax label changed colour, from blue to yellow, as did the logo but that's another story.\nThe Stax/Volt singles can be found on a 9 CD Box Set it has nearly all the singles from 1959 until 1968.\nRead about the story of Stax records in Soulsville U.S.A. a book by Rob Bowman (published by Schirmer Books)\nComplete Blue Stax UK Singles Listing\nWilliam Bell Com\nStax Revue Live At The 5/4 Ballroom\nBooker T & The MG's Play the Hip Hits\nStay In School Don't Be A Drop Out",

        "raw_content": "Home House Cleaning Service Free House Cleaning Service Business Plan 4.28 Market Value of Owned Home by Mortgage Status Nationally Analysis\nThe most interesting fact that emerges from this analysis is that the nationally on average, the market value of homes with a mortgage have been valued 23% higher than homes without a mortgage. This sounds counter intuitive but it is not, more often than not a home without a mortgage belongs to folks who are older and have had the opportunity to work and pay down their mortgage and are in the process of planning for retirement if they are not retired already.\nWe find that the value of the average home in the country that had a mortgage was $263,930 as compared to $213,690 for a home where the home owner had already paid off the mortgage. What may surprise people is that in terms of the home market value appreciation over the decade from 2005 to 2014, the value of home with a mortgage have actually declined by 10.8% as compared to a 5.6% decline in the market value of a home without a mortgage during the same time frame.\nBoth types of homes present Spotless Homes with opportunities for business:\nHomes with mortgages are indicative of younger borrowers who are probably still working to pay off their mortgages. These folks tend to be on the run and need help with the cleaning of their houses. Thus these are excellent folks to offer annual contracts that require the cleaning service to come in once every so many weeks for cleaning. Additionally, since these folks probably have equity in their homes or are at least always looking to re-finance their mortgages, Spotless Homes could work with a mortgage broker in a Business Networking (BNI) setting, where they refer business to each other.\nHomes without mortgages are indicative of retired homeowners who are done paying off their mortgage and are probably not actively earning wages anymore. While they may not be on the go as much as younger borrowers, they still may need the help of cleaning services since as folks age, their ability to be active around the house slows down considerably. Spotless Homes could offer these homeowners occasional one off cleaning specials that would not require a long term financial commitment from the homeowner.\n<a href=\"http://www.smallbusinessplanresources.com/industries/7/House-Cleaning-Service-Business-Plan/Industry-Analysis-Market-Value-of-Owned-Home-by-Mortgage-Status-7BP\">4.28 Market Value of Owned Home by Mortgage Status Nationally Analysis</a>",

Her class, a diverse group of racially charged teenagers from different walks of life \u2013 African Americans, Latinos, Asians, juvenile delinquents, gang members, and underprivileged students from poor neighborhoods \u2013 hope for nothing more than to make it through the day. On the surface, the only thing they share is their hatred for each other and the understanding that they are simply being warehoused in the educational system until they are old enough to disappear. Despite her students\u2019 obstinate refusal to participate during class, Erin tries various means to engage them on a daily basis.\nBut then ghetto reality steps in to focus the picture. A racially motivated gang shooting witnessed by a Latina gang member in Erin\u2019s class, and an an ugly racial cartoon that Erin intercepts during class, become the most unwittingly dynamic teaching aids. They spark a transformation in the classroom, compel them to listen and force her to take off her idealistic blinders and take in the kids\u2019 survival stories of their undeclared war on the streets. Erin begins to connect with them. She brings in music from the \u2018Hood, and literature from another kind of ghetto, The Diary of Anne Frank, and with these simple tools she opens her students\u2019 eyes to the experiences of those suffering intolerance throughout the world and the struggles of those outside their own communities.\nKnowing that every one of her students has a story to tell, Erin encourages them to keep a daily journal of their thoughts and experiences. After sharing their stories with one another, the students see their shared experience for the first time and open up to the idea that there are possibilities in life outside of making it to the age of eighteen. Based on a true story, \u201cFreedom Writers\u201d is an inspirational tale and testimony to courage, hope and the human spirit\u2019s triumph over intolerance. As the students\u2019 diaries transform from schoolwork into life preservers, Gruwell\u2019s commitment to them grows and affects her in ways she did not imagine.\nPeople Reviews for Freedom Writers\nSF SUN-SENTINEL >>\nWriter: Erin Gruwell (Book)\nStarring: Hilary Swank\nProducer: Danny DeVito\nRating: PG-13 for violent content, some\nthematic material, and language",

And in many ways, it was just that:\nIt was a war between America and Great Britain\nIt was caused in part by disagreements over shipping and trade on the high seas\nIt involved fighting in America and in Canada\nIt ended in an American victory\nOverall, however, it was a war to decide how much influence the United States would have in foreign affairs.\nPresident Thomas Jefferson was looking to keep American goods flowing overseas and, at the same time, keep America out of foreign wars. It was a balancing act, and the U.S. was bound to lose its balance sooner or later.\nBritain and France were at war with each other, as was much of the rest of Europe. Both sides thought that American ships were supplying the other with food and weapons. Both British ships and French ships routinely stopped American ships on the high seas and demanded to search the cargo holds. Sometimes, these encounters were violent.\nNext page > Trade, Shipping, and War > Page 1, 2, 3, 4, 5",

        "raw_content": "Carlos Ramos y Su Orquesta Fuego's LP \"Tecato\" was to be the soundtrack to a never-released movie of the same name. Tecato--slang for a heroin addict--speaks to the emerging madness that was beginning to bubble in the streets of Nueva York as the economic and social decay that would give birth to Hip-Hop in a few years began its reign.\nThe record embodies the mixture of chaos and beauty that was experienced in the streets as first generation Nuyoricans were merging the rhythms and realities of their Island-born parents with the energy and sounds of New York City. The music of this spectacular soundtrack, which was recorded in one take, mixes Guaguanco, Soul, Psychedelic Rock and Santeria.\nImagine standing on the corner of 116th and Lexington in the middle of July, while from every window there is a different sound blasting. That is what Carlos Ramos y su Orquesta Fuego sounds and feels like.\nSociedad Records is honored to release \"Candelo\" and \"Lightning & Flash\" from this incredible LP as its inaugural release. Remastered and released as a double-sided single for the first time, these two diverse & heavy sounds are an automatic collector's piece.\n\u00a92014 Sociedad Records. Special Thanks to G. Velez.\nWritten by C. Ramos & B. De. Jesus",

        "raw_content": "Feminism, Virtue Ethics, Political Philosophy\nMarie le Jars de Gournay is sometimes called La Dame de Gournay, Marie de jars, Marie de Gournay de Jars or Marie de Gournay. This use of different names by different scholars can be particularly confusing when using search engines since they do not usually cross cataloge pages unless a name is given as a \"keyword\" in the text. Students and scholars using the Internet should be advised of the alternate naming so they can find all relevant web sites.\n1565 - born in Paris on October 6, 1565 into a noble family of Jeanne de Hackqueville and Guillaume le Jars. Marie was the first born in a family that eventually had a total of six children.\nHer father died suddenly and her mother moved the family from Paris to an estate in Gournay. From her earliest years Marie liked to study and she says in her autobiography that she would steal away to study as often as she could. She taught herself Latin and read as much as she could. The Essays of Michel de Montaigne came into her hands and she was very impressed by their content.\n1588 - she met Montaigne. Marie and her mother were visiting Paris and learning that Montaigne was in the city, she wrote him a note. Michel de Montaigne came to call the next day! A friendship grew and Montaigne, who was some 32 years her senior called her his 'adopted daughter'. Their connection grew strong and later, when Marie and her mother were living in Picardy, Montaigne visited for some 12 weeks.\n1591 - Marie le Jars de Gournay's mother died. After settling the estate in a manner favorable to her siblings, she went to Paris where she lived with a servant, Nicole Jamyn and a cat. Her generosity to her brothers left her in reduced financial circumstances. She became acquainted with poverty.\n1592 - Montaigne died but Marie did not learn of his death until Spring of 1593. Montaigne's widow asked her to prepare a new edition of the Essays and this came out in 1595. Marie le Jars de Gournay visited Madame de Montaigne at the family home near Bordeaux for some fifteen months and then she went to the Netherlands where she was well received.\nBack in Paris, she set about obtaining a state pension. To do this she needed to look the part of a lady and she spent much of her remaining inheritance on horse and carriage etc. Finally Queen Marguerite of Valois to whom Montainge had dedicated one of his work did give Marie her hoped-for pension. She was presented at Court of Henry IV and he gave her hopes of additional benefits but in 1610 Henry was assassinated.\nIn the aftermath of the assassination there were charges and counter charges. Marie entered the turmoil with a pamphlet but then she in turn was attacked. The 'dust settled' but forever after Marie le Jars de Gournay was 'fair game' for ridicule, attack and practical jokes. Even Cardinal Richelieu poked fun at her when first introduced, but her gracious reply caused him to apologize ....and to offer her a small pension.\nTo live a single life, to hold ideas ahead of her time, to have little income....Marie le jars de Gournay did not 'fit in' very well. But her home on Rue St. Honore became the meeting place of many of the intellectuals of Paris. She was also invited to a number of other prominent salons in the city. Poor or not, she had her independence and her beloved intellectual life.\n1645 - Marie le Jars de Gournay died leaving a legacy of intellectual work. Like many later French philosophers she did not separate philosophy and literature - in this she was a forerunner of 20th century literary philosophers such as Sartre and de Beauvoir.\n1595 - a new edition of Montaigne's Essays. This included her Preface to the Writing of Michel de Montaigne by his 'adopted daughter'. Also later edtions in 1617, 1625 and 1635. . This work not only included editing but translating into French texts quoted by Montaigne from the Greek, Latin and Italian. Her association with Montaigne was said to have helped her by opening doors to her. But she is also the person who worked to keep Montaigne's work and ideas before the public until his reputation was solidified.\nApology for the Woman Writing (Remember that the word Apology means 'reasons for' and not the modern meaning of 'expressing regrets.')\nL'Ombre de la Damosielle de Gournay.\nLes Advis ou les Presens de la Demoiselle de Gournay\nOn the Birth of the Children of France\nOn the Vicious Virtues\nThere are copies of the following works online:\nMarie le Jars de Gournay: Egalit\u00e9 des hommes et des femmes .\nGrief des dames and Peincture de Moeurs\nMarie le Jars de Gournay is one of more than 100 women whose portraits appear in A Pictorial History of Women Philosophers photo album, and among the 40 women featured in",

        "raw_content": "Shint\u014d, Buddhism, Feminist Existentialism\nMurasaki Shikibu lived from 970 - 1031 CE\nFirst, we should note that Murasaki Shikibu is not the real name of this philosopher and literary figure. It is a 'nickname' derived from two sources: the name of a character in the Genji and the position in the Board of Rites (sikibu) held by her father. So this use of a pseudonym makes this philosopher a somewhat mysterious figure.\nSecond, it is important to understand somethings about the time period in which Murasaki Shikibu lived if we are to make any sense of her life and/or work. To help with our understanding, it might we wise to consult this essay by Gregory Smits which offers useful background information and contains links to other sites with relevant information. Go to: \"The Heian Period Aristocrats (Note: Much of the essay is based on a work by Morris: The World of the Shining Prince: Court Life in Ancient Japan)\nWorks by Murasaki Shikibu\nThe Diary of Murasaki Shikibu \u2013 nearly the entire text can be found at: digital library of women writers If you would like to see how this work may be viewed in Japan, there is a scroll Tokyo National Museum: Murasaki Shikibu Diary\nPoetry by Murasaki Shikibu: Spring Poem GSIS I: 104 GSIS VII: 433 Meeting on a Path Was that Really You I Wandered Forth this Moonlit Night\nThe Tale of Genji is a major work of both Japanese and world literature. Like many fictional philosophical pieces it can be read on many levels. The Tale of the Genji offers layers and depths that may be plumbed by repeated, meditative reading. If you are going to read this work, do not think that you can possibly understand it with the sort of reading one gives the daily newspaper. It requires a commitment of time and intellectual energy. For those who have not grown up with The Tale of the Genji, there is a useful introduction to the work written by one Royakk Taylor. It can be found at Introduction to the Tale of the Genji (Note: this site also contains the first chapter of Taylor\u2019s own translation of the work. Many of us are forced by our ignorance of other languages to read philosophical works in translation. Whether we are reading a classical Greek text such as Plato's Dialogues or a classical Japanese text such as the Tale of Genji, we need to remember that much is lost in translation and it is good to read at least two translations of any important work. For those reading Tale of Genji in in English translation, there are 3 modern English translations. However, it should be noted that none of the translations appear to be by philosophers and that affects our understanding of Murasaki Shikibu's philosophical work. (If you recall the first English tradition of Simone de Beauvoir's, The Second Sex. was done by a scientist and so many subtle philosophical concepts and terms were lost in the translation. We need to be aware that the same thing could be happening with Murasaki Shikibu's work.)

        "raw_content": "It is interesting to note that the main deity is seated in a majestic Padmasana posture, an yogic posture signifying peace and prosperity, instead of the traditional standing pose in most other temples of Parvati. The goddess holds a sugarcane bow and lotus and parrot in the lower two of her arms (Many of the Hindu god forms generally have four arms) and has the two divine instruments Pasa and Angusa in her upper two arms. It is interesting to note that there are no traditional Parvati or Shakthi shrines in the city of Kanchipuram, apart from this temple, which is unusual in a traditional city that has hundreds of traditional temples. There are various legends attributed to it. One of them according to Kamkshivilasa is that the Goddess had to absorb all the other shakthi forms to give boon to Manmatha (the Hindu god of fertility and love). Another legend attributes it to the Raja Rajeswari pose of the deity that signifies an absolute control over the land under its control, leaving no other forms of Shakthi.Legend has it that Kamakshi offered worship to a Shivalingam made out of sand, under a mango tree and gained Shiva\u2019s hand in marriage.\nKamakshi and Adi Sankaracharya\nAdi Sankaracharya is significantly associated in the rich history of the temple. Like many other ancient goddesses, the form of Kamakshi was less benign than the current form. There used to be various forms of animal and human sacrifices in ancient Shakthi temples and it is believed that Adi Sankaracharya led to the more peaceful representation of the goddess by placing a divine Chakra before it.\nAnd the goddess agreed to show her benign side in the temple, while the forms of Shakthi outside Kanchipuram still had more angrier forms of Shakthi. There is no verifiable historical proof for this, though it is a part of the local folklore. Symbolic of this, during the festivals when the processional deity is taken for a procession around the temple streets, it takes leave from Sankaracharya, at his shrine in the inner corridor. It is also believed that Sankaracharya defeated Buddhist and other philosophers in this place, sparking a revival for Hinduism.",

        "raw_content": "Australia: New Report Documents Prevalence of Sexual Violence at Universities\nThe Australian Human Rights Commission (AHRC) has released the results of a new national survey, which found that more than fifty percent of Australian university students were sexually harassed in 2015 or 2016. Another 7% said they were sexually assaulted over the same time period. According to the AHRC\u2019s report, \u201cwomen experience sexual assault and sexual harassment at disproportionately higher rates than men.\u201d The report\u2019s authors say that the survey\u2019s results are a \u201ccall to action\u201d for universities to address and mitigate the factors that contribute to sexual violence on campus. They make nine recommendations to help universities and colleges ensure that \u201cthe fundamental rights of every student to access and enjoy their education free from the fear of sexual assault or sexual harassment\u201d is guaranteed.\nCompiled from: Change the Course: National Report on Sexual Assault and Sexual Harassment at Australian Universities, Australian Human Rights Commission (2017)",

        "title": "Ana Devi\u0107, Imagine a Moving Image \u2013 Marko Tadi\u0107",
        "raw_content": "The exhibition Imagine a Moving Image by Marko Tadi\u0107 gathers together a number of his recent collages, artist\u2019s books, video-animations, objects and display models that weave together a vast visual and mental imagery, blurring the lines between fiction and documentary, memory and history, past and future. Regardless of the medium, his works can be seen as a continuous effort to initiate a potential new beginning, often building on the ruins of times past.\nCombining a Wunderkammer atmosphere with modernist-like displays, in this exhibition Marko Tadi\u0107 has created a specific set up that, in its dense spatial arrangement, transforms the gallery space into an open studio that appears to be a testing ground; or rather a play ground, as many of his works are light-heartedly fuelled with a tireless imagination that actualizes the utopian potentials of play as a political, historical and collective asset.\nThe relationship between static and animated images is the topic of a series of collages and drawings entitled Imagine a Moving Image (2013), the objectives of a cinematographer are applied to different situations and contexts to examine various aspects of cinematic procedures. Borrowing this title to name the entire exhibition, a major retrospective of his work so far, indicates how central this theme is to the artist\u2019s work. In this magical dialectic of static and moving images, flickering rhythms and sliding boundaries are imbued with protean creations. It is driven by an impulse to keep producing films through different means of collecting, drawing, intervening\u2026. or just by watching.\nIntervening on found materials such as vintage postcards, notebooks or personal photo archives, mostly obtained from the flea markets or salvaged from garbage, Tadi\u0107\u2019s works leap into loosely structured fictional narratives open to different interpretations. Their references \u2013 spanning from literature, film, and art history to radio programs and popular culture \u2013 become triggers that enable a process of free associations, an endless manual research-in-progress that operates through the obsessive and everyday acts of drawing, doodling, experimenting with the very \u201cunconscious\u201d of the material and the potential forms and meanings it can generate. Through a gradual process of accumulation, Tadi\u0107 often uses small scale formats, such as artist\u2019s books or collages, that evolve into larger archives or animated film sequences grouped around certain topics or leitmotifs.\nThe earliest work in this selection I speak true things (2009), consists of collages, a constructed wooden display and an animated film. It was a turning point in his practice and established the procedure described above. Geographical maps from a variety of historical periods are interrupted with mystical calculations and wondrous symbols; alongside an animation they retell the story of a utopian Atlantis-inspired Island. Though the mystical Island remains intangible, I speak true things charts a landscape of artistic imagination and creative processes as truly ideal places where everything is possible.\nWe used to call it: Moon, (2011/2012) is a kindred work that encompasses a number of collages and objects used as a background for a stop animation. Referring to several SF literary classics[1], which mention the phenomenon and discovery of the then unknown planet \u2013 the second moon \u2013 a series of maps illustrates how this discovery might have been passed on to, or omitted from, the collective imagination and how, as an invisible catalyst, the alleged moon might still determine our future.\nTadi\u0107 reworks a given topic to the point of collapse or exhaustion, just so his continuous flow of work migrates to yet another analogous topos. The series of collages Accumulation of the images from below (2013/2014) is first of his works that delves into a world of remnants of the modernist heritage and its possible reinterpretations; this field of reference still determines the artist\u2019s work. The title is inspired by Gordon Matta-Clark\u2019s observations on a loss of a perspective experienced while observing his own Conical Intersect (1975), a large hole cut through a housing block in Paris, just before being demolished to make way for the Pompidou Centre. Echoing that sudden change of perspective in a familiar terrain as well as the rapid replacement of dominant paradigms, so poignantly addressed by Conical Intersect, Tadi\u0107\u2019s Accumulation of the images from below revisits the remnants of the heritage of modernism, and in particular that of socialist modernism in Yugoslavia. His approach is neither an academic, historical nor theoretical perspective, and it is devoid of any fetishistic nostalgia. By cutting a metaphorical peep hole into the past seen as a \u201cforeign land\u201d[2], this series \u2013 and a related work Table of Contents (2015/2016) that employs modernist-like exhibition displays and smaller models \u2013 looks back at the record of the local modernist condition that was determined by contradictory processes of endless perpetuation oscillating between forgetting, depoliticization, devaluation, idolatry, overuse and monetization. Marko de- and re-constructs a modernist vocabulary from a formalist perspective, using it as the research polygon for a new genesis: looking awry into a vast pool of ruins as well as seeing new potential constructions. Accumulation of the images from below and Table of Contents (2015) work, therefore, primarily through visual elements, playing with the remnants of constructivist and universalist ideas in housing, design, science, everyday life and linked in particular to modes of exhibiting. This is visible in the artist\u2019s \u201cpocket size\u201d galleries, screening structures or display models in which fragments from the socialist modernist project, often retrieved from garbage, are presented as artworks: the cover of a book designed by the Croatian sculptor Ivan Ko\u017eari\u0107 for example or Tadi\u0107\u2019s own grattages on found photographs.\nCreating such displays, Table of Contents forms miniscule imaginary galleries or museums and seeks connections to a wider contextualization than the individual pieces or fragments within the overall system.\nAlthough these interventions inhabit a ghost-like world full of ambiguities, similar to the We used to call it: Moon series, they also point to possible echoes of progressive and emancipatory ideas of the past. This is especially noticeable in Tadi\u0107\u2019s numerous animations, such as Until a Breath of Air (2015) or Moving elements (2016) that not only refer to, but also actively rework the tradition of the Zagreb School of Animated Film that from the 50s and 60s onwards has produced a number of animated films that have reached international prominence. Many visual artists such as Vlado Kristl, a member of the Exat 51 group, also participated in the movement.\nEmploying motifs from landscape and architecture to depict the processes of devastation in times past and present, Until a breath of Air is structurally more experimental then Marko\u2019s other films. It is a short melancholic revision of an unknown history as told from the perspective of ruins that follow the appearance and disappearance of an era, where everything is reduced to debris.\nTadi\u0107 uses stop frame animation to continue his obsessive, almost compulsive drawings and stretches them through the dimension of time. He usually uses animation as the final, concluding part of a certain series. The narratives are frequently organized around a journey-like motif and the temporal dimension unfolds through the continuous movement of various objects, lines and shapes against phantasmagorical backdrops.\nDeparting from the various narratives and following the strongly pictorial dynamic of lines, the dream-like atmosphere of his films is punctuated by the everlasting movement of the colour black set against the background. This highly pictorial rhythm is the main \u201cprotagonist\u201d of his films. The technique of stop-motion animation can be read as a process that brings about both the formation and the dissipation of a world. Enhanced by a voice-over narrator or a musical score, the animation does not impose interpretations, but in suggestive manner, almost like a Rorschach test, it offers the viewer the conditions to enter a subconscious state. It is a cognitive void which he maps, and he inhabits it with multiple stories that rise above centuries and worlds in a quest for elusive, utopian places. Tirelessly, dot by dot, the artist records the horizons of its constant re-emergence and disappearance.\n[1] such as The Invention of Morel by Adolf Bioy Cesares and From the Earth to the Moon by Jules Verne\n[2] \u201cThe past is a foreign country; they do things differently there.\u201d is an opening sentence of L.P. Hartley\u2019s novel The Go-Between, 1953.",

Microsoft Distinguished Engineer Eric Traut gave a presentation of the kernel of Windows 7, the operating system's core, which is designed to have a minimal footprint.\nMiniWin \"is the core of Windows 7. It is a collection of components that we've taken out. A lot of people think of Windows as this really large, bloated operating system, that's maybe a fair characterization, I could admit. It is large, it contains a lot of stuff in it, but at its core, the kernel and the components that make up the very core of the operating system, actually its pretty streamlined. It's still bigger than I'd like it to be but we've taken a shot recently at really stripping out all of the layers above and making sure that we have a very clean architectural layer\", Traut revealed.\nMiniWin is an internal only product. Microsoft plans in no way to productize MiniWin; however, the bare-bone kernel will act as the core for a lot of the company's solutions. Traut gave a presentation of the Windows 7 source code base that occupies only 25 MG of disk space. The amount is virtually insignificant compared with the 4 GB that Windows Vista manages to take out.\nOf course that the MiniWin stripped down kernel is an integer part of Microsoft's strategy to deliver a modular installation of its operating system, something already done with Windows Server 2008's core installation. MiniWin is composed of approximately 100 files and it will run with just 40 MB of RAM. But at the same time it does not come with a graphics subsystem and only brings to the table a rudimentary HTTP server.

        "raw_content": "\u2190 Reconciled by His Death, Saved by His Life\nBlaming Satan for Human Choices \u2192\nMost are aware of the indwelling of the Holy Spirit, which was available to Christians in the ekklesia in the First Century. Most are also familiar with the demon possessions that seem to have been frequent at that time. The indwelling of the Holy Spirit certainly seems, in the big picture, to have been a defense against the indwelling of evil spirits. I am currently researching, however, whether there was a general indwelling of an evil sort at work at that time.\nHints of such may exist in the passages below. Or perhaps a closer look will reveal that no such general (evil) indwelling of some such spirit. I post this article, therefore, simply to pose the question for the record. If I reach a conclusion, I will publish that, too.\nHere are the passages that may be hinting of such an evil and widespread indwelling:\n1 Corinthians 2:11 For what man knows the things of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? Even so no one knows the things of God except the Spirit of God. 12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might know the things that have been freely given to us by God. [Was there an actual being known as \u201cthe spirit of the world\u201d? Or was this simply a device by which Paul contrasts the Holy Spirit to a non-existent counterpart from the world?]\nEphesians 2:1 And you He made alive, who were dead in trespasses and sins, 2 in which you once walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit who now works in the sons of disobedience, 3 among whom also we all once conducted ourselves in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, just as the others. [Here we seem to be seeing that spirit actually at work \u201cin\u201d those who were disobedient. And interestingly, Paul may be suggesting that he and the other Christians had also partaken in this spirit-prompted disobedience at one time. Does this mean that that actual spirit was also at work \u201cin\u201d them? And if so, would it have been in some indwelling sense?]\n1 John 4:1 Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world. 2 By this you know the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God, 3 and every spirit that does not confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God. And this is the spirit of the Antichrist, which you have heard was coming, and is now already in the world. 4 You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world. 5 They are of the world. Therefore they speak as of the world, and the world hears them. 6 We are of God. He who knows God hears us; he who is not of God does not hear us. By this we know the spirit of truth and the spirit of error. [Again, we have mention of a being\u2014presumably a spirit\u2014who was working \u201cin\u201d the world. And this is explicitly mentioned in contrast to the Holy Spirit, who was \u201cin\u201d the Christians. Further, we see two new titles here: \u201cspirit of truth\u201d and \u201cspirit of error\u201d. If the first is the actual Holy Spirit, then are we to believe that the second one did not really exist?]\n1 John 5:19 We know that we are of God, and the whole world lies under the sway of the wicked one. [The question, therefore, is just how this \u201csway\u201d was actuated. Were people influenced from without, just as the media or the example of the neighbors might influence one today? Or were they influenced from within, as was the case with the Christians having the indwelling of the Holy Spirit?]\nThis entry was posted in Anatomy of \"This Perverse Generation\", Anatomy of the Spiritual Situation.

President Obama said yesterday that even if he said the sky is blue, Republicans would disagree. Despite all that, in Texas, the stimulus seems to serve its purpose just fine, especially in the field of energy. Unlike what Republicans claim, it has provided incentives for small businesses with incentives to grow, save money, and it has also helped create jobs.\nThe Austin American Statesman shared a couple of stories about small businesses that have benefited from the stimulus. First is the Dog Ranch in Pflugerville. The owners wanted to install solar panels atop the ranch roof, a move they figured would save them some money on energy bills. The panel cost $87,000. With the stimulus funds(Grants from the Department of Energy) the owners received and Austin Energy\u2019s rebate program, they only had to pay $10,000. For the Ranch owners, this deal saved them a lot of money since they only pay one third of the energy bill they used to pay before installing the panels in addition to the tax credit they get from installing the panels, \u201cWe just expanded in December, and we wouldn\u2019t otherwise have had capitol to do it,\u201d Said the Dog Ranch owner.\nLonghorn Solar is the installation company that set up the Dog Ranch solar panels. The company too has taken advantage of the stimulus money and now it has 10 employees and many more installation projects. Louis Petrik, the CEO of Longhorn Solar said \u201cIt (the Stimulus) allows us to put a lot of jobs in the pipeline and go out and actively hire,\u201d\nA part of the stimulus money was given to states to have at their disposal to run their own programs (And they say the Feds want to take over local governments). To track the federal stimulus funds, the Texas Legislature appointed the Select Committee on Federal Economic Stabilization Funding. According to its website, The Committee \u201cmonitor[s] actions of the federal government, including legislation and regulations, related to efforts to promote economic recovery by providing federal funds to the states.\u201d\nOn September 1st, the Subcommittee on Energy held a hearing in Corpus Christi where major stimulus fund recipients such as Centerpoint Energy and Iberdrola Renewables presented in what project they are using the stimulus money and how they are going about meeting their goals. Documents from the hearing are provided on the Texas Stimulus Funds website or you can access them by clicking here.\nPosted in Uncategorized, tagged clean economy, clean up, EPA, green economy, green jobs training, petroleum tanks, solar hot water heaters, solar panels, stimulus, Texas on July 17, 2009 |\nReports are beginning to roll in as to how funds from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (aka \u201cthe stimulus\u201d) are being used in various communities, and as promised, many of the projects are an economically friendly shade of green.\nJust yesterday, the EPA announced that it would dole out $10.7 million to Texas to clean up leaks from underground petroleum tanks. That\u2019s good news for our soil and groundwater, which become contaminated by petrol and other hazardous substances when these tanks leak. Don\u2019t want that in your morning coffee.\nThis next one isn\u2019t a direct result of the stimulus bill, but still represents how we can transition to a cleaner, greener economy even as we lift people out of economic hardship. Earlier this week, we heard that the U.S. Labor Department\u2019s Veterans Workforce Investment Program is passing on $7.5 million to veterans organizations in several states (including Texas) for green jobs training programs. Programs to train vets to install solar panels and repair solar hot water heaters can provide well paying, in-demand jobs to a segment of the population that well deserves a place in the new green economy.\nAnybody heard of any other examples of great green investments or your stimulus dollars at work?\nVan Jones Officially \u201cGreen Jobs\u201d Special Advisor to Obama Administration\nPosted in Consumers, Efficiency, Global Warming, tagged ap, bush administration, dina cappiello, Energy Efficiency, green economy, green jobs, Obama administration, Public Citizen, solar, special advisor, Texas, texas energy future, Texas Impact, van jones, white house council on environmental quality, wind on March 10, 2009 |\nThis just in from the Associated Press:\nWASHINGTON \u2013 Author and activist Van Jones will be a special adviser for green jobs, enterprise and innovation in the Obama administration.\nNancy Sutley, chairwoman of the White House Council on Environmental Quality, said in a release Monday that Jones will start work next week to help direct the administration\u2019s efforts to create jobs and help the environment. Sutley said Jones will work on \u201cvulnerable communities.\u201d\nJones founded Green for All, a national organization that promises environmentally friendly jobs to help lift people out of poverty. He wrote the New York Times best-seller \u201cThe Green Collar Economy.\u201d\nAnyone who heard Van Jones\u2019 keynote address at our Texas Energy Future conference knows what fantastic news it is that this man now has the ear of the President and the White House Council on Environmental Quality. At the conference Van Jones gave an amazing speech to a packed house on the potential of the new green economy.

        "raw_content": "Magellania: A Socio-Political Statement\nReview by Michelle C \u2014 13 Aug 2005 Be first to comment \u00bb\nJules Verne's final tale of adventure features an individualist hero who leaves his country behind for an unclaimed island. What he finds there, however, are political quagmires he never expected.\nA man was standing atop a cliff gazing south, below him the ocean\u2026\n\u201cHe was tall and fit, with indestructible good health. Everything about him bespoke energy, which sometimes took the explosive form of anger... His face was marked with gravity, a little like the gravity of the American Indian, and his entire being exuded pride, quite different from the pride of egoists who are in love with themselves. This gave him a true nobility of gesture and stance\u201d (Magellania, pp 3-4).\nThis is how Jules Verne introduces the reader to Kaw-djer, the protagonist of his recently rediscovered novel, Magellania. The original manuscript of the book was not published until 1977, with the first English edition published in 2002.\n\u201cKaw-djer\u201d means \u201cfriend\u201d or \u201cbenefactor\u201d in the native language of the inhabitants of Magellania, the domain that includes the islands between the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, at the southernmost tip of the American continent. (Today, this domain is a part of Tierra del Fuego, the \u201cLand of Fire.\u201d) Kaw-djer is the name given to the protagonist by the land\u2019s inhabitants, the Fuegian tribes. His real name and identity remain a mystery.\nKaw-djer is a skillful, self-sufficient man who abandons the civilized world and chooses to live by himself in Magellania. He chooses this land because no country had bothered to claim it. Magellania belongs to no one, so no one has jurisdiction over it, leaving Kaw-djer free to answer only to himself. For Kaw-djer\u2019s greatest passion is complete, unbridled independence \u2014 his motto is \u201cNeither God nor master!\u201d\nAs pointed out in a previous column, Jules Verne\u2019s staunchly independent protagonists are not provided with a moral code to sustain their independence. Verne accepted the conventional negative view of egoism as \u201cbeing in love with oneself.\u201d Nevertheless, Kaw-djer\u2019s pride and his dedication to his personal code are admirable and appealing.\nKaw-djer is not a misanthrope. As a trained physician, he tends to the sick among the natives, hence the origin of the name they give him. The natives and the few missionaries who visit them respect his wish to be left alone. Little by little, the reader finds out more about Kaw-djer, and about the ideas that set him against society with all its laws and governments. An idealistic anarchist in mid-Nineteenth Century Europe, he is repulsed by the violent methods used by his comrades, and realizes that the only way to practice his ideology is to abandon civilization and society:\n\u201cAn untamed, indomitable, stubborn spirit, who tolerated no authority, incapable of obedience, rebelling against all the laws, which despite their doubtless imperfections, are necessary for people to live among one another\u201d (p 71).\nLiving by choice like the shipwrecked Robinson Crusoe, Kaw-djer finds his Friday, the native Karroly, whose son Kaw-djer saves from attack by local warriors. Unlike Robinson Crusoe, however, Kaw-djer does not become Karroly\u2019s master, but remains his equal and friend; his personal code requires that he neither obeys nor commands.\nVerne integrated his fictional story with the geographic and historical facts of Tierra del Fuego, relying heavily on Charles Darwin\u2019s journal of his research in the area. Darwin recorded the following about the communal property of the native inhabitants:\n\u201cThe perfect equality among the individuals composing the Fuegian tribes must for a long time retard their civilization\u2026In Tierra del Fuego, until some chief shall arise with power sufficient to secure any acquired advantage, such as the domesticated animals, it seems scarcely possible that the political state of the country can be improved. At present, even a piece of cloth given to one is torn into shreds and distributed; and no one individual becomes richer than another\u201d (p 242).\nBack in Europe, Kaw-djer\u2019s anarchist comrades are also socialists, convinced that the abolition of private property is necessary for the abolition of the laws that protected it, and the governments that enforced those laws. Verne surveys the evolution of socialist ideas in Nineteenth Century Europe and criticizes their proponents, notably Proudhon and Karl Marx. The socialists\u2019 motto, Verne says, is \u201cexpropriation of the capitalist bourgeoisie.\u201d He asks: \u201cCan they pretend to be unaware that what they unjustly call thievery really should be called savings, and that savings is the basis of any society?\u201d (p 71)\nWith the treaty of 1871, Tierra del Fuego became an integral part of the Chilean republic. This event is integrated into the plot of Magellania, as Kaw-djer is exasperated and distraught about the imminent encounter with the civil servants sent over to register the inhabitants. He flees to the remote uninhabited Hoste Island in a desperate attempt to preserve his independence, and is about to commit suicide at the prospect of living as a fugitive. But then a passenger liner called The Jonathan is shipwrecked near the island. Kaw-djer is faced with a critical decision: Should he try to save the castaways and expose his existence? His decision brings him in contact with the civilized world he had abandoned.\nSince the passengers were en route to colonies in South Africa, they decide to remain in Hoste Island and establish a new colony. The Chilean government, eager to encourage colonization of Magellania\u2019s other islands, grants them total independence and ownership of Hoste Island, an offer they cannot refuse. Kaw-djer has no reason to hide from the Chilean government any more.\nAs Kaw-djer becomes acquainted with the colonists, he is drawn to their companionship, and his personal code \u2014 which allows no social relationships \u2014 is cracked. The colonists are not a homogenous group, however; among them are some socialists and anarchists, or as Verne describes them, \u201cprofessional revolutionaries, always battling with the law, enemies of any social order, agents of chaos\u201d (p 95). They had already started trouble on board The Jonathan, and are determined to impose their anarcho-socialist ideology on the rest of the colonists. They demand that the land be owned in common by everybody.\nThe majority of the colonists, however, want to allocate the land among the individual families and establish a system of laws to protect private ownership. They elect a council and call upon Kaw-djer to become their leader. Kaw-djer, however, is bound by his personal code, which demands that he neither obeys nor commands. Sensing his ideological affinity with them, the anarcho-socialists call upon Kaw-djer to join them. As the conflict between the two factions develops, and inevitably becomes violent, Kaw-djer must make a fateful decision.\nMagellania was never published in Verne\u2019s lifetime. It was published posthumously by his son, Michel, who took many liberties in altering it, including the cutting of the opening part. Michel Verne changed the title Magellania to The Castaways of The Jonathan, shifting the focus from the land chosen by Kaw-djer to the shipwrecked people whom he rescues. Overall, the book was altered to reduce Kaw-djer\u2019s stature and the role of his ideology in the story.\nWith the first English edition of the original manuscript published in 2002, we can finally appreciate Verne\u2019s socio-political statement: his frank and well-reasoned rejection of both anarchism and socialism in favor of limited-government capitalism.\nMichelle Fram Cohen, a native of Israel, has lived in the United States since 1981.

        "raw_content": "In recent years more and more women, and men, have turned to permanent makeup options; tattoo grade inks that are permanently applied to the skin.\nThis type of makeup application is seen by some as more convenient and less time-consuming than having to reapply makeup constantly, while others view it merely as another option in routine cosmetic surgery. But is it safe?\nThe most common forms of permanent makeup involve tattooing of eyebrows and the application of permanent eyeliner or lipstick. A few people use a variation of the same process to help conceal skin conditions or skin pigmentation problems. However few people take into consideration the possible long-term problems.\nIn many countries (including the US) tattooing, as well as permanent makeup, is regulated by local government, resulting in an imbalance in regulation from one area to another. Because of this, many tattoo and permanent makeup artists are able to get away with practices that are less than advisable.\nOne instance of this is the often unhygienic application of tattoos and permanent makeup. Equipment and inks that are not sterile can result in the transmission of infectious diseases from one individual to another. The biggest concerns, and the ones most often publicized, involve hepatitis and staph infection.\nSome people may be allergic to tattoo inks, reactions ranging from simple discomfort such as itching or burning to major outbreak of sores, nodules or keloids. Some could result in permanent scarring.\nAnother issue that few people consider is that of removal in the case of a problem with a tattoo or permanent makeup. In spite of all of the advances made with regarding to laser technology, removal is no easy task; depending on the type and size of the tattoo as well as the kind of ink used, removal could take multiple treatments, damaging both the pocketbook as well as the psyche. Removing tattoos without some associated scarring is often impossible. Depending on its location, removal may be ill advised or completely inappropriate; while tattoo and makeup artists may be comfortable applying ink around delicate eye areas, physicians are often not as comfortable trying to remove it.\nThen there is the issue of change in facial structure. As people age, their skin sags. For some areas of the face, such as the lips, the skin also dries up and appears to shrink. Permanent makeup applied to the eyes or lips, therefore, could suddenly be dislocated, giving the wearer a mask-like appearance that is anything but attractive.\nPeople who have tattoos or even permanent makeup can also have problems with certain types of medical tests such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). They could experience burning and swelling around the inked area both during and sometimes after the procedure. Certain types of inks have also been known to interfere with the effectiveness of the test; the belief is that the inks contain metallic pigments that interact negatively with the equipment.\nTaking all of that into consideration, you should think very carefully if tattoos and permanent makeup are worth the potential hassle.",

        "raw_content": "A Very Special Doll\nBack in December, I had posted about a very bad day that I had had at the hospital on Facebook and Instagram. Evanna was going through withdrawals, she wasn't very happy, and a nurse had gotten blood on one of my favourite blankets that I had bought when I was still pregnant. Later that afternoon, I received a sweet message from Jenny Bracken, and she wanted to send Evanna a very special present.\nNow Evanna has gotten quite a few amazing and beautiful gifts (and we appreciate each and every one of them - our hearts are exploding with gratitude during this tough time), but this one is just too good not to share. It's a handmade doll sewn by Jenny herself. She used fabric and string to match Evanna's hair colour and eyes perfectly, but it's the other personal touches that make this doll extra special. Right off the bat, you notice that the doll has a big bow headband placed on top! Evanna has kind of become known for her headbands, so it was only fitting that the doll would have one too. Then Jenny added a \"scar\" on the doll's chest to sybolise Evanna's open heart surgery scar. On the back of the doll, Jenny stitched in Evanna's OHS surgery date, as well as her diagnosis (acronyms only! lol - there would be no room to spell out her entire diagnosis). To finish it off, she stitched in Evanna's name on the doll's left leg and dressed her in a beautiful floral dress.\nI can't relay enough at how beautiful and special this doll is (the nurses and intentivists think it's just the coolest thing ever). Jenny truly does some amazing work, and the workmanship and detail that goes into each doll is truly outstanding. She makes all kinds of dolls (not just heart ones - and she makes boy ones too!), so please, if you have a moment, check out her other work here or here. She is extremely skilled at making custom dolls, and has a talent for making each one unique and special, matching it's recipient perfectly!\nAnother Extubation?\nSo this will be a much shorter update, as not too much has happened between my last update and now.\nThis past weekend was kind of slow, and so on that same token - it was also hard on me. I absolutely hate the days that nothing happens, and feel like we're wasting unnecessary days in the hospital. There was a reason as to why they waited until Monday for a new bronchoscopy - so though there was a legitimate reason for the quiet weekend, it still sucked.\nThey put Evanna back on Milrinone (a heart drug) on Friday and increased the dose over the weekend, because they wanted to see if they would have different bronchoscopy results with lower blood pressure running through her conduit and make a difference on the compression they saw. On Monday around 4:30pm, Dr. Eksteen came up ready to do the bronchoscopy, but unfortunately it was a little busy in the PCICU, so it was a little chaotic with intentivists and Dr. Rebeyka jumping back and forth between another patient and Evanna during the bronchoscopy. During the procedure, Dr. Eksteen noted that the \"dynamic compression\" was significantly less than it was on Thursday, and so a theory that lower blood pressure would help Evanna extubate was discussed. While everyone started to talk 6th extubation, I was starting to freak out on the inside because the last extubation took such a huge toll on me, and the last thing I want to do is waste anymore time on a silly theory. It was late in the evening, so real discussions of a plan were kind of done \"half-assed\" (I wish there was a more appropriate word to use, but it's the best way to describe it), and Nick and I weren't necessarily asked what we thought we should do.\nYesterday, we came in and began discussions of what we should do moving forward. We have a few days to figure it out, as Evanna has come down with a lung infection, so that will take a week or two for her to get over before we can proceed with anything. I am extremely hesitant to try another extubation, especially when the only difference is a simple change in blood pressure, and I am sceptical that it will really make a difference. My biggest fear is going through another extubation and wasting even more time in the hospital. So Dr. Anand asked that Nick and I discuss what WE wanted to do, and what we're comfortable with, and to let them know. I was really against trying another extubation, but Nick pointed out that why not give this \"noninvasive\" approach a chance before resorting to surgery. Evanna has been playing by her own rules, and surprising us when we don't think something is going to work, and proving us wrong when we do think something will work. I agreed to a 6th extubation, however, only as long as we set limitations. If we aren't able to wean Evanna within 3-4 days off of BiPAP onto high flow, then we will consider it a failed extubation, and we won't push Evanna like we did the last time - she's either going to extubate or not, and I don't want to do another 8 days on BiPAP, only to end back up at square one again. Both Nick and the intentivists were in agreement to my concerns and felt that the limitations were extremely fair.\nSo that's the plan - get Evanna over this lung infection, work on lowering her blood pressure and extubate her again. I am a tad sceptical that it will work, but of course I would love nothing more than for Evanna to prove me wrong. If Evanna fails this extubation, we will ask Dr. Rebeyka about the RV/PA conduit pexy (or valve placement) he was thinking of doing, and unless he REALLY thinks it will make a difference, we will move forward with a transfer back to Calgary and proceed with a tracheostomy.\nIt has definitely been a few hard days and weeks for myself, and I know lots of people have felt my stress and frustration. It's a rollercoaster and like Dr. Cave (our primary intentivist) pointed out, the constant change in plans isn't really fair on Nick and I, and they completely sympathise with us, and only want what's best for our family.\nI've also come to realize that our prolonged hospital stay isn't what's bothering me, but it's that Evanna is STILL intubated and in the ICU. I in no way want to play down what other people have gone through - but though there are many people who also go through prolonged hospital stays, it's so much different when your child is in the PCICU and INTUBATED. I'm not able to sit Evanna up, hold and play with her. She has to remain flat on her back, and I'm growing distraught at how much time has passed and how not only is Evanna not developing, but has also lost all the skills she had going into surgery (rolling over, etc.). I know that she will bounce back, and we will be given resources to aid in helping Evanna catch up, but it's still something that weighs on me. At the bachelorette I attended this past weekend, a girl who was familiar with our story asked how Evanna was doing, and I responded that things were going okay (really - how am I suppose to answer that question??), and then asked how old Evanna was. I stated that she was almost 9 months old, and she responded by saying \"Oh, my niece is 10 months old, and I just LOVE watching her grow and develop - isn't it amazing?\" It took all my strength to not retaliate and punch her in the face. I was honestly shocked that she would say that to me. There are times I want to write a book on \"things not to say to a mother with a child in the ICU\". It honestly blows me away at some of the comments I get from time to time. I know most people just don't think about what they're saying and I'm sure I'm guilty of saying inappropriate things in the past, but still! lol\nAnyways - Evanna has been having a good morning, and I feel like the antibiotics have finally kicked in. Her lungs are finally starting to clear up and sound clear, and we've been able to come back down on her PEEP (they had to go higher on the PEEP, as she required a bit more support). Later I'm going to ask when they're aiming to extubate again, and I'm going to better prepare myself mentally for this extubation. I realize that I was sort of in a funk over the past few days, especially when we didn't really have a plan (anyone who knows me, knows that I like to plan), but I feel much better, especially after coming to a decision yesterday that everyone has agreed with.\nThis lovely and stunning gold leather and floral crown that Evanna is wearing today was made especially for her by Azlyn from Genuinely Made Shop on Etsy. She custom made it to fit Evanna, and I just love how unique and beautiful it is. Make sure to check out her shop to see and admire the rest of he work (her leather bows are equally beautiful)!\nSo Evanna was reintubated on Wednesday. It was definitely a hard pill to swallow (and lots of tears were involved), but it needed to be done. She fought SO HARD for SO LONG, but it just wasn't enough. We originally thought the next step would be a transfer back to Calgary to proceed with a tracheostomy - as this is the 5th failed extubation, however, a bronchoscopy done on Thursday showed a \"dynamic compression\" on her trachea, so plans of a tracheostomy have been put on hold until further investigation can be done on Monday to see if ANOTHER surgery should be done.\nHere's how the last few days have played out:\nNick left Monday morning, and I headed to the hospital. It was a terrible day, and Evanna was completely miserable. They put her back on the full-face BiPAP mask in hopes that it would help, but it didn't make that much of a difference. I was slowly starting to realize that this extubation wasn't being the success that we needed, and Evanna was telling us that. We continued to try our best to make her comfortable and happy and push on, but I knew deep down that Evanna was growing tired and weak.\nOn Tuesday, things continued to get worse, and I was in tears with the state that Evanna was in. She was looking at me with the saddest eyes that I have ever seen, and finally we started to talk reintubation. Dr. Anand said that during Wednesday's intentivist meeting, they would discuss as a team the best step moving forward, and make sure that everyone was on the same page in regards to a decision. Well I stated that if the decision was going to intubate, why wait one more day and put Evanna through one more night of this. Dr. Ryerson was there for the night, and they had already called Dr. Cave (our primary intentivist) to get his opinion. I already knew what Dr. Duff's opinion would be from previous conversations, so I said that if Dr. Aditia was on board, then I would prefer that we did the intubation done that night vs making Evanna wait one more day. Well Dr. Aditia happen to be \"working\" that day, as he was \"Nurse for the Day\" - something the unit does every year to raise money for their social fund, and this year Dr. Aditia \"won\", which meant that he had to be a nurse for the day and do EVERYTHING that a nurse had to do. So they took him aside and asked his opinion on if they should reintubate Evanna. They went and studied her xrays, and Dr. Aditia wondered if maybe Evanna was being over ventilated and said that before they actually intubate her, just try her on high flow for a few minutes, as there was no harm in doing so. So they got everything ready to intubate her, as well as the high flow supplies. They switched out the mask for the nasal cannulas, and watched to see what Evanna would do. Surprisingly Evanna did amazing, and by the time I left for the night, Evanna was still on high flow! However at 2:30am, I got a phone call telling me that her CO2 was climbing and they needed to put Evanna back on the mask and try again tomorrow.\nOn Wednesday morning I came in, and we decided to try Evanna on high flow again, because of the \"success\" of Tuesday night. Evanna was hating the mask, and I was hoping that she would relax on high flow. Unfortunately, Evanna lasted only about an hour on high flow before her CO2 levels started to rise again and we needed to put her on BiPAP again. Her CO2 initially came down with the switch to BiPAP, but again her CO2 levels started to rise again, and when they reached 95, we had no choice but to finally come to the conclusion that she needed to be reintubated for her own safety. It was so heartbreaking to know that Evanna failed yet another extubation, and we now know that a tracheostomy is the next step. As much as Nick and I were originally resistant to the idea down in Calgary, we felt that we tried our best, and Edmonton did everything they could to avoid a trach, but we finally came to the realization that this was the only route in order for us to take her home. They kept Evanna pretty sedated for the rest of the day, as she needed to get some rest and sleep.\nOn Thursday we started to discuss plans for a transfer back down to Calgary to proceed with a tracheostomy. They called the Alberta Children's Hospital PICU, and they stated that they already had a bed available, and could take her that day. However, the Stollery wanted to make sure we were sending Evanna down in tip top shape to hopefully avoid another transfer back up to Edmonton if things were to go down hill (basically dot their i's, cross their t's, and tie up loose ends before we transferred Evanna). We asked that if it were okay, to arrange for a Friday morning transfer. An ECHO and bedside flex bronchoscopy were ordered and I left to attend the Corus Radiothon for the Stollery Foundation. When I came back the ECHO had already been done, and Dr. Eksteen had just arrived to begin the bronchoscopy. During the bronchoscopy, Dr. Eksteen saw a \"dynamic compression\", and plans for a transfer down to Calgary were immediately put on hold. Dr. Rebeyka was made aware of the bronchoscopy findings, and what this could possibly mean.\nYesterday (Friday), Dr. Rebeyka came by and talked to me about the plan for the next few days, and possibly the next step. He wants Evanna to have a second bronchoscopy on Monday to confirm what they saw, and if there is a compression, they will probably do another open heart surgery to either lift the conduit that they inserted during the first open heart surgery off of the trachea or insert a valve inside the conduit to make it more stiff and firm and not pulsate against the trachea causing it to collapse.\nBasically Evanna WILL be having a 5th surgery, but what that entails (either the tracheostomy or another open heart surgery), won't be discussed until Monday when Evanna has another bronchoscopy. It has been a long few days, and this morning I'm finding myself a little drained of energy, and just overall exhausted both physically and emotionally. Tonight my parents are coming into town to be with Evanna while I attend part 2 of a Bachelorette party for my friend Bev who is getting married in February, for which I'm a bridesmaid. Like I stated in a Facebook and Instagram post, this is something that the doctors, nurses and social workers are extremely supportive of, and highly encourage me to go have fun and enjoy myself. They constantly talk about self care and being at my best here in the PCICU, in order to not run myself down and be in the best possible state for Evanna. I guess I just feel like I have to explain myself in fear of being judged for not being at the hospital. Truth of the matter is, I'm here at Evanna's bedside day in and day out. Though my life has been kind of put on pause for the past 3.5 months, the world has continued to still go on, and a break is warranted once in awhile.\nNick will be back in Edmonton tomorrow, and most importantly will be here on Monday when we have discussions on what our next step should be. We're a little reluctant on another possible open heart surgery because it means we're going back in through Evanna's sternum, AND it may not produce the results we need in order to bring Evanna home, and she'll still need a tracheostomy anyways. However, if we proceed with a tracheostomy, she may need it for a lot longer if we don't deal with this dynamic compression to begin with. It's definitely not going to be an easy decision, and it's a little frustrating to feel like we're back at square one again.\nThanks for reading, and hopefully I won't go too long between the next update. Again - thank you so much for each and every Facebook and Instagram comment. I may not respond all the time, but PLEASE know each one is read and appreciated all the same. And of course, please continue to pray for Miss Evanna, and that she'll continue to be strong and brave.\nPS. Thank you to @caracall on Instagram for sending a handful of sweet bows. The kindness of complete strangers continues to amaze me.\nPCICU Day 98 - 105\nTo say this has been a very stressful week, would be a huge understatement. So much is riding on this extubation, and it has definitely taken a toll on me. Ever since we've been back to Edmonton, I have never called in a night to check on Evanna, because I know she's just fine (plus I know they would call me if there were any concerns). However, ever since Evanna has been extubated, I've called at least twice every evening. My nerves are at an all time high, and I just want this part to be over with.\nThe big problem we were experiencing, is if something were to happen and Evanna gets extremely upset, they can't really sedate her too much, because that would mean she would stop breathing. So there's a fine line between keeping her comfortable and happy, and over sedating her to the point that she stops breathing, they have to reintubate her, and we're back to square one and proceeding with a tracheotomy.\nAnyways, I'm going to go over what has happened over the past week, so bear with me. I know I've already posted about her extubation on Facebook and Instagram, but this blog is a true journal of this journey, and I want to document everything fully, as I plan to print this sometime in the future.\nSo since my last post, we were able to decrease her PEEP to 6 on the ventilator by Monday, which meant that a Tuesday extubation was a GO! Dr. Aditia was extremely disappointed that he wasn't going to be the one to do it because he was off to China first thing in the morning, meaning that Dr. Ryerson got the honour of being the one to extubate Evanna (the intentivists are incredibly competitive with each other - it's actually quite funny). Her extubation happened to fall on Day 100 of us being in the ICU, and so I'm hoping that means something. Like I expected, the extubation went smoothly, and I even got to take a picture of her before they put the BiPAP mask on her. It was a great day filled with so much hope and joy as we made this big step. Once things were settled down, I even got to hold her, and according to my calculations, it was the first time that I had held her in 44 days.\nI came in on Wednesday, and Evanna had had a good night. The nurse asked if I wanted to put an outfit on her, but I told her that when we were transferred back up to Edmonton I hadn't bothered to bring any of Evanna's clothes this time because I didn't think there was a point. So I raced over to West Edmonton Mall and bought a few cute onesie\u2019s from Carter's, and even found matching bows at H&M while quickly shopping for myself. I came back and got her dressed up, and decided to hold her again. That evening we tried her on nasal BiPAP, but she didn't do as well as they thought she would, so they switched her back to the full face mask. She also became really irritable that night, and so this is when my stress levels started to climb, as she wasn\u2019t doing as well as I had hoped.\nI came in on Thursday, and she was doing okay. Her evening was kind of rough, but she had settled out and was doing much better. They switched her ventilator settings to CPAP, but within a few hours her CO2 started to rise again, so they went back to BiPAP settings and left her there. Dr. Ryerson started to indicate that she was a little disappointed in the progress that Evanna was making, and unsure of how this extubation was going to go. She stated that she's not ready to give up on Evanna, but that I needed to know that a tracheotomy may still be on the table as an option for her. That evening, things just got worse. According to their calculations, they didn't decrease her medications when they extubated her, but I felt that Evanna was definitely experiencing withdrawals. Her heart rate went up to the 200s and stayed like that for hours, she was flailing around and nothing I was did would calm her down, her temperature was increased and she was tongue thrusting - all signs of withdrawal. It takes a lot for me to freak out (I've seen Evanna code, so I feel like I've practically seen it all), but I was truly going into panic mode. I called Nick multiple times to keep him in the loop, and I was so close to asking him to leave work and drive up to Edmonton as I felt she was about to fail this extubation. Dr. Duff was our intentivist for the night, and he too was worried that we were going to have to reintubate her again. He decided to \"throw the kitchen sink at her\" (his words lol), and do everything possible, just short of reintubating her, as he too didn't want Evanna to fail this extubation. We upped her Milrinone (it's a drug that helps the heart pump), drew cultures, started antibiotics, gave her fluid (a dry body can be really hard on the heart), and upped her sedation doses. Finally around 11pm, things started to settle down, so I finally left to get some sleep.\nI called at 5am to check on her, and Dr. Duff answered the phone and said that he hasn't had to touch her and for me to go back to bed and get some sleep.\nThings settled a little bit on Friday, but my nerves were at an all time high. Considering how things were going, I was terrified that Evanna was failing this extubation. She had an incredibly good day with her O2 in the 80s and her heart rate going as low as 140. They came back down on her Milrinone, as well as some of her sedation. However, come evening, Evanna started to act up a little bit (we're noticing a pattern here...), and was completely miserable. It wasn't as bad as the previous night, but she was still a little restless, and her heart rate went up again. They gave her some extra doses of hydromorphine, which seemed to help, and I was told they had to do that a few times throughout the night.\nEvanna had a pretty good day yesterday, and I was so relieved to know that Nick was on his way up to Edmonton. I was still really stressed and emotional during rounds, so I was definitely in tears when Dr. Anand came by. I stated that while I know Evanna isn't the number one priority on the unit, and there are sicker kids than her here, that I need Evanna to be a priority for the next week, as I really want this extubation to be successful. Dr. Anand assured me that Evanna is a priority, and that he will definitely work with us to make sure she is given the best chance possible to succeed. I definitely felt a lot better after that, and I have since felt that my wishes are being met. We switched her to a nasal mask again, and though Evanna's CO2 levels initially rose, we waited it out and they came back down. I also noticed that her hemoglobin was low (I'm the first person to grab the blood gas results from the RT\u2019s and read them myself to see how Evanna is doing), and so I asked Dr. Anand if we could think about doing a transfusion, as they always help boost her energy and keep her sats higher (this is why blood donation is so incredibly important!!). Dr. Anand agreed with me, and when I left to go pick Nick up, they started a blood transfusion (what a little vampire!).\nAfter I picked Nick up, we grabbed a quick bite to eat, and came back to the hospital to see Evanna for a little bit. We didn't stay too long, as Nick had just gotten off work himself that morning, but we waited until her 8 o'clock blood gas to be done before we left (my life is currently revolving around blood gas time - a sign we've been in the PCICU for too long lol).\nToday has been a relatively good day. They finally turned off her Milrinone, but that was it in regards to changes made for the day. She hasn't necessarily been on it because of heart failure lately, but it was a drug they started when we were back in Calgary (when she was experiencing heart failure), and because she ended up being on it for a long time, it's something they've also had to slowly wean. They left her ventilator settings alone, and if she has a good night, they will hopefully do a small decrease tomorrow. On a positive note, Nick got to hold Evanna today, and again, according to my calculations, it's been 64 days since he last held her. He was one happy dad!\nThat's basically the story of our lives - slow and steady. We're still not out of the woods in regards to the extubation, and I won't consider this a successful extubation until we're on high flow. However, she is still extubated (it's been longer than 4 days too), and still doing relatively well, so I\u2019ll take it. I'm scared that she's going to fail and she'll end up getting a tracheotomy (not the worst thing in the world, but would still love to avoid one), and I really just want to fast forward this part. Evanna hates the mask, and this process has definitely been hard on me. I too hate the mask, and I really hate all the unknowns of whether Evanna is going to succeed or not and if we're doing this all for nothing.\nPlease continue to pray for our little girl, and that she will be comforted during this not so pleasant part, and that she will continue to get stronger every day and come off of the BiPAP and CPAP - and quickly too!\nSo Evanna has so kindly reminded us of who is in charge of the show, and that she will do things when she is good and ready. Evanna is still intubated, but the intentivists are confident that we'll get back to our PEEP of 6 and extubate early next week.\nBefore I proceed, I want to explain the definition of PEEP again. I'm pretty sure I briefly described what PEEP was a few posts back, but it doesn't hurt to go over it again, so everyone truly understands why we've been in this hospital for SO LONG! PEEP stands for \"Positive end-expiratory pressure\". Basically in laymen terms, it's the amount of pressure being blown into Evanna's airways to help keep her trachea (airway) and lungs open. Because Evanna has tracheomalacia (\"weak trachea\"), she needed a higher level of pressure to help keep everything open. They generally don't extubate until a PEEP level of 5 or 6, but they WILL try at PEEP of 8 to non-invasive support (so a big CPAP or BiPAP mask) that will still provide the pressure without having a big tube stuck down their throat (which is what we've done in the past). This has been our biggest battle with Evanna - weaning down her PEEP. Evanna has never handled the decrease, and her oxygen levels would drop, her lactate and CO2 levels would climb very high (which makes you very tired), and her \"work of breathing\" would increase and she would have to work incredibly hard just to breath. We think resectioning her subclavina off of the back of her trachea helped a lot, because according to Dr. Rebeyka, he was quite surprised how much pressure it was putting on her little airway.\nThis is why Evanna was facing the possibility of having a trach (and it's still on the table, as we're not out of the woods), and why we're so excited that Evanna has FINALLY been able to wean down to a PEEP of 6! In the past, every time we got down to a PEEP of 8, we would end up going back up to a PEEP of 10, 12, and even 14, and it was a never ending circle of constantly playing with her ventilator settings. Anyways, we finally got down to a PEEP of 6, even with a \"crappy\" diaphragm, and that's why they think she'll finally successfully extubate after this plication surgery that she had on Tuesday (which entailed them going in and \"pinning\" down her diaphragm).\nSo though Evanna was initially doing well after her plication surgery, things didn't go so well later that evening. They had to increase her ventilator settings (her PEEP was increased to a 10), and she basically confused the intentivists for a couple of days when she would wake up and fight the ventilator. They would raise her rate to 28 (meaning the ventilator would give her 28 breaths/minute), but Evanna would only take 8 breaths, meaning she would resist 20 breaths every minute. The RT's would joke that Evanna had abs of steal and were in disbelief at how hard she was fighting the ventilator. Because Evanna was fighting so hard, her CO2 levels would climb like crazy, and her O2 levels would drop. The only thing that would snap her out of it for a little bit would be to paralyse her so she would stop fighting the ventilator and let her body get the oxygen that it needed. While this was a quick solution, it wasn't something that the intentivists wanted to keep doing over and over again, because it really wasn't solving anything. Finally after a few shifts of Evanna doing her \"episodes\", Dr. Ryerson decided to recalculate her pain medications, and she figured out that Evanna really wasn't getting any additional pain medications since her surgery, and that she was basically on the same levels that she was going into surgery. Evanna is on such high levels of pain and sedation medications, but because she's been on them for so long, her tolerance is also really high. So Evanna was in pain, and she was holding her breath in response to that. Thoracotomy surgeries are very painful, and this being a \"redo\" surgery, we were also dealing with scar tissue, so poor Evanna was in a lot of pain, and overall it has been a crappy few days of recovery (I won't name who, but please know that the intentivist that was in charge this week felt truly terrible once we realized the problem. Evanna is on such high doses of pain and sedation medications already, and so it was a honest mistake). Anyways, since we fixed the problem, Evanna has been doing wonderfully. She's been wide awake and content as can be. She's currently back down to a PEEP of 8, and we're hoping to get back down to a PEEP of 6 by Monday (we're going at Evanna's speed) and extubate a day or two after that.\nThanks for continuing to follow along and the continued prayers and support!\nPS. This adorable bear was delivered to us here at the Stollery from our best friends Matt and Amanda a few weeks ago. Evanna is seriously one spoiled baby, but I'm beyond grateful how many people love our little girl.\nThe headband comes from Analise Cranney - an Instagram follower, and was made by Summer Sariah Bows. A few weeks ago, Analise sent me a message asking me if we needed anything (financially), and when I assured her that we were just fine, she still inquired if there was anything she could do. Well I jokingly said \"send more headbands!\" and that's absolutely what she did. She contacted 3 friends who make headbands and had some sent to us. Thanks Analise and Sariah for the cute bows!\nFun CHD Nail Fundraiser!!\nSo Evanna is still doing well and in case anyone was wondering, we're still working towards an extubation. We had a slower recovery then expected, and the last few days have been spent figuring out it was all due to pain. Basically the intentivists underestimated how high Evanna's drug tolerance has become, and it took them awhile to figure out that she just needed more drugs - poor baby. Anyways, I'll do a full update later this weekend, in the meantime I wanted to post about something else.\nCongenital Heart Defect (CHD) Awareness Week is quickly coming up, and so I've become involved in a few projects to help spread the awareness, as this is the one time of year that has been dedicated to it (though I'm all about creating awareness 52 weeks a year!).\nA week ago my sweet friend Alissa messaged me about an idea, and I was immediately on board! She is a woman of so many talents including photography, cake decorating (she seriously has some skillz!), design, and of course being an amazing mother. She also is a Jamberry consultant, and in honour of CHD Awareness has designed some beautiful nail wraps, and has decided to donate her entire commission (which is 30% of all sales) from this party to the Stollery Foundation in our name.\nWhat is Jamberry? They are high quality, vinyl, heat and pressure sealed nail wraps that last for weeks, at the fraction of the cost of a salon visit! No harsh chemicals, chipped polish, or damage to your natural nail. There are over 350 adorable style options! One sheet includes enough wraps to do 2 full manicures, and 2 full pedicures, and still leave you 4 accent nails.\nSo Alissa and I invite you to join her private Facebook Jamberry Fundraiser (click here for the link) or click here for the direct link to shop without having to join the Facebook group, and indulge in some \"guilt free\" shopping! The party ends February 6, which should hopefully leave enough room for everyone to receive their CHD wraps in time.\nShopping Note: To buy the custom CHD wraps, you will need to buy a gift certificate and send Alissa the code. She will then purchase and have them sent to you. In order to facilitate this, please join the Facebook Jamberry Fundraiser page, so that Alissa can help you every step of the way. If you are not interested in the custom CHD wraps, then please feel free to shop from just the direct party link. Thanks you!!\nHeadband from my heart mama friend Heather. It's from Love What's Missing\nSo yes Evanna will be having another surgery tomorrow. However, it's just a simple re-plication of her diaphragm, and compared to her other surgeries - this one is practically nothing in my books!\nWe've been really reluctant to publicly talk about what's been going on around here over the past 4-5 days in fear of jinxing ourselves, but the fact of the matter is that things have dramatically improved and Evanna has been doing very well. The prayers and fasting are working, and I'm amazed at the leaps and bounds that Evanna has made since last Wednesday. They finally found that her femoral line and ET tube were infected, so they started her on the appropriate antibiotics. Since then her heart rate and temperature have been much easier to maintain, which means we've been able to make lots of headway in regards to her ventilator support being decreased. Evanna is now on a PEEP of 6 (!!!) and has been at that level for a few days now. To try and put that in perspective of how big of a deal that is - since Evanna's original open heart surgery, we have never been able to get past a PEEP level of 8, and every time we do, we eventually end up going back to level of 10, and sometimes even 12 or 14. In all 4 of Evanna's past extubations, they extubated to noninvasive support on a PEEP of 8, and then she eventually fails.\nSo why the big change and progress? Well first, I am not underestimating the power of fasting and prayers. I know we've been doing these things from the start, but Heavenly Father does things in his own time, even when it doesn't make sense at the time. Secondly, I guess Evanna just needed more time to heal since her last surgery when Dr. Rebeyka resectioned her subclavian off of the back of her trachea (interesting fact: so I guess I really didn't pay attention to what resectioning her subclavian meant - but basically blood pressure can never be taken from Evanna's left arm now, because there is no major artery supplying blood to her left arm). Thirdly, it didn't help that Evanna was getting infection after infection, making things worse and her body having work harder - including her lungs and airway.\nAnyways, though we're down to a PEEP of 6, they have noticed that her right diaphragm is still acting up. They did a fluoroscopy this morning and it showed that her right diaphragm was indeed paradoxical and needs to be replicated (basically her right diaphragm moves in the opposite direction and works against Evanna). I know it sucks that they're \"redoing\" a surgery, but I guess plications don't always last, and if you remember from her last plication, it's a fairly straight forward and easy procedure (they transferred Evanna within 24hrs after her last plication).\nAfter they re-plicate her diaphragm, they'll give her a day or two to rest, and they hopefully extubate later this week. In saying that - it's a BIG week for Evanna! I've never been more hopeful that we may finally be heading in the right direction of taking Evanna home and putting this behind us.\nPS. 6 !!!!!\nLate Edit: I realized that I forgot to talk in detail about her bronchoscopy and CT/Angio from last week. So first she had a bedside bronchoscopy, and Dr. El-Hakim just did a simple bedside exam. After he examined Evanna he stated that while there is still some malacia in her trachea, he was actually quite pleased with how much better it looked. She isn't out of the woods, and still has a ways to go, but it was music to my ears. After that, they took her down for a CT/Angio to check for compression around the trachea. The scans came back, and everything actually looked good. They didn't see anything compressing directly on her trachea, and they were happy with everything they saw. This meant that an aortapexy was off the table, as there was no reason to go back in through her chest. This was a relief to hear from one standpoint, because this is a risky surgery, but that also meant that if she failed one more extubation, Evanna would need a tracheotomy. The CT also clearly showed her high diaphragm on the right, and that's why we have since investigated into the problem.\nIt was after the bronchoscopy and CT/Angio that Dr. Aditia turned her PEEP back down to 7, and since antibiotics had been started, her body handled the decrease beautifully!\nSo it's been an interesting week here in Edmonton at the Stollery Children's Hospital. Evanna's bronchoscopy and CT/Angiogram came back with decent results, but our surgeon has been away, so any decisions that need to be made have been kind of put on hold. I'm going to keep this update relatively short, but overall Evanna is actually quite stable. We discovered that her femoral line was infected, so she has been on antibiotics since Thursday. This has been a big help in keeping her heart rate and temperature down, making Evanna more comfortable and happy. We also got moved back over to the cardiac side of the PICU, as the medical side was filling up, and for once the cardiac side is quiet and almost empty - so because Evanna is a cardiac patient, she got moved back over.\nI want to thank everyone on both Instagram and Facebook for the kind comments after my \"vent\" post. I know I shouldn't have let that comment get to me, but after our rough week last week, being accused of being a terrible parent threw me over the edge. Writing out my thoughts helped me and was a validation to myself that I'm not a bad mom and doing the best that I can for Evanna. Not that it was needed, but everyone's comments only confirmed what I already know.\nI also need to tell you about a very special gift that Evanna recently received earlier this week. The special blanket that Evanna is using in the above photo was made by a girl named Angel, who lives in BC and has made it her life's mission to \"Wrap Sick Kids in a Warm Hug\". She's only 18 years old and owns a successful Non-For-Profit business called Hugginz by Angel that involves sewing blankets, giving them a big hug, and mails them around the world to sick kids in need of a \"Warm Hug\". I initially didn't request a blanket, because Evanna has lots and there are so many other kids in greater need, but Angel's mom insisted that Angel wanted to make Evanna one, so I put in a request. The great thing about that is she also made Sawyer (Evanna's 2nd cousin) one too, because Sawyer also had a big surgery on October 6th (the same day Evanna had her open heart surgery), and Angel so graciously tied the two blankets together by using the same fabric in parts of their blanket. Not only that, but she found some fabric from when she made Sami's blanket last year (Sawyer's first cousin and Evanna's second cousin), and incorporated it into their blankets as well! How neat is that?? If you have a minute - please visit Angel's Facebook page (click here) or website (click here), and show her some support!\nHeadband in this picture is from J and G Handmade. Jen has been a huge supporter of our little family and constantly writing comments of love and support! Thanks Jen!!\nWell it's that time of year that I write my annual recap of the past 365 days for the Irvine Family. It was initially difficult for me to write this years post, but in hindsight, I am so glad that I did. In despite of everything we're currently going through, it has still been a good year. Our marriage is stronger then ever, we accomplished some major financial goals (other then a mortgage, we are completely debt free - including car and student loans, and increased our savings!), Nick got his Paramedic licence and got a permanent full time job with Calgary EMS, and we welcomed our beautiful little girl into the world. We've experienced so many things, lost a few relationships, gained so many new friends, and understand just how precious this life is. Though I'm ready to move past this current chapter, I'm trying my best to embrace this experience and learn from it. So here we go:\nIn January, Nick and I took the opportunity to go on a babymoon to Cancun, Mexico. With everything we had learned about our baby girl, we needed to get away to be alone as a couple, relax and digest what the rest of 2014 would be like for us. Besides the throwing up all the way there and all the way back (Nick isn't sure if we wants to fly with me anymore), it was a great trip.\nA week after returning from Mexico, we headed to the mountains of Montana for a group ski trip (I promise, that at 6 months pregnant, I stayed far away from the ski hills). We stayed in the most beautiful cabin in the middle of nowhere and truly enjoyed the scenery and quietness that Montana had to offer.\nFebruary was a low key month as we geared up for a busy spring. At the beginning of March, Nick was offered a temporary full time position with Calgary EMS as a Paramedic, which was a HUGE blessing that came at the perfect time considering everything that was about to happen. Nick and I headed to Edmonton around mid March to meet with the cardiac medical team and celebrate our 2nd Anniversary a little early. It was a very busy couple of days with lots of information being thrown our way - it would make your head spin! We also celebrated my niece's 1st birthday and my best friend and sister threw me an amazing baby shower.\nI finished my last few days of work at the beginning of April and relocated to Edmonton and moved into the Ronald McDonald House for the very first time. It was an extremely emotional time for me, as I was away from my close friends and family, as well as my husband who stayed back in Calgary to work as much as he could before the baby arrived. Finally, on April 28, I was induced, and Evanna was born on April 29 pink and crying (though an emergency c-section may have been involved....). It was a crazy couple of days proceeding, with finding out that Evanna's heart was even worse than we initially thought, having her flown back to the Calgary NICU as surgery was a no-go for the time being, and making sure she was healthy enough to be discharge home. After 10 days total in hospital, we were given the okay to take our sweet baby girl home.\nMay was a month of big adjustments as we got use to having a baby at home, and learning to be parents ourselves. Nick was offered a PERMANENT full time Paramedic position with Calgary EMS, and it was just nice to have a period of normalcy.\nIn June, we celebrated Nick's first Father's Day, and Evanna had her baby blessing on the same day. It was truly a special day, and probably one of my most favourite moments of 2014.\nWe finally made a trip back up to Edmonton for Evanna's very first Cardiac Cath in July and start making plans for her first open heart surgery. She handled it like a champ and we were home within 36 hrs.\nAugust and September was spent soaking up the rest of Summer, and begin to keep our outings short and limited, as we wanted to keep Evanna in the best possible health for her upcoming surgery. We spent lots of quality time with our closest friends and family and soaked in every moment.\nThe day we had been waiting for, for almost a year, had finally arrived. On October 6, we handed our baby girl into the arms of a nurse who walked her into the OR where multiple doctors and surgeons awaited. It was a long morning and afternoon, but Dr. Rebeyka came out saying that the surgery went well. It was a hard few weeks of recovery, as we watched Evanna deal with sedation and withdrawal issues, failed extubations and another devastating diagnosis of Tracheomalacia. We experienced every parents worst nightmare in the early hours of October 28, when Evanna's heart stopped and she coded. It took 20 minutes of CPR to bring her back, and it's a night that we'll never forget. What we had hoped to be a relatively straightforward surgery and recovery, was any but that, and we would soon learn that we were in this for the long haul.\nWe finally had the opportunity to have Evanna transferred down to the Alberta Children's Hospital PICU in Calgary so we could be closer to home, but not much progress was made down there. Evanna failed another extubation and her heart went into failure. On December 2, we were transferred back up to the Stollery Hospital in Edmonton where she underwent her fourth rigid bronchoscopy and her second cardiac cath. On December 8th, Evanna had her third surgery performed by Dr. Rebeyka that took over 6.5 hours to complete, but because they know Evanna's history, she recovered a lot quicker.\nWe spent Christmas with Evanna still in the PCICU, but made the most of the situation. Nick worked New Years Eve, and I made sure to give Evanna a midnight kiss with a phone call from daddy to follow.\nOverall it's been a year of some of our highest highs, and lowest lows. We're hopeful for a brighter and healthier New Year full of joy, happiness, and love.\nMusic: It Is Well by Kristene DiMarco",

        "raw_content": "\"Vienna has a great musical tradition and wants to use the occasion of Mozart's birthday to invest in the cultural and musical life of the city.\" \u2014 Franz Patay: Executive Director \"The Vienna Mozart Year 2006.\"\n\"Happy birthday, Mr. Mozart.\" And to celebrate the 250th anniversary of arguably the greatest musical genius of all time, Vienna is throwing a year long party. But why Vienna? After all Johannes Chrysostomus Wolfgangus Theophilus Mozart was born in Salzburg on 27 January 1756 and lived there, on and off, for over two thirds of his life. But it was in Vienna, however, that he married Constanze, fathered six children, composed his most important works and where he died and was buried. It was also in Vienna that the child prodigy \u2014 a little man in a powdered wig carrying a miniature dagger \u2014 first sprang to the attention of the Austrian nation.\nAs a six year old, in the Hall of Mirrors at Vienna's imposing Schonbrunn Palace, the child genius entranced Empress Maria Theresa with his musical talent, and on completion of his recital is said to have jumped unto the Empress's lap, to hug and kiss her. It was not until 1781, when he was discharged in disgrace by his employer, the Archbishop of Salzburg (\"sent out the door with a kick up the arse\"), that Mozart, now 25 years of age, chose Vienna as his home. In this city, with its lively court society, Mozart saw the opportunity to make a living from commissioned compositions, teaching piano, and giving recitals.\nAs he himself enthused, \"What a magnificent place, and for my m\u00e9tier, the best place in the world.\" Despite the fact that the house where he died in Rauhensteingasse, while composing his famous unfinished Requiem, has long since vanished and the exact location of his grave in St Marx Cemetery is still unknown, the Viennese have taken Mozart to their hearts, hailed him as an adopted son, and will party all year long in his memory.\nCelebrations involving 80 major organizations, presenting between them in excess of 700 concerts in 170 locations across the city, is a major programming feat and, as Patay modestly states, \"One requiring great diplomatic and logistic skills.\" While the festivities are estimated to increase tourist numbers by some 7 to 10 percent, according to Patay, \"We will not be creating artificial events just to lure tourists. If the programme is not of interest to the people of Vienna, we cannot expect overseas guests to be interested either.\"\nJust who wouldn't be interested in some of the stars appearing during the year? Sir Simon Rattle, and a host of other world famous luminaries, will conduct the plethora of world famous Viennese orchestras; Placido Domingo and the Vienna Boys Choir will display their vocal talents; the Vienna State Opera and the Theater an der Wien will stage Mozart's major operas. Jazz is not forgotten, with renowned pianist Chick Corea presenting a chamber music concerto.\nMozart's symphonies, concert and choral works can be heard at such venues as the Vienna Konzerthaus, Schonbrunn Palace, the Imperial Palace (Hofburg) the Auersperg Palace and a host of other locations including shopping centres, train stations, factories, city squares, hospitals, hotels and parks. As Patay puts it, \"Bringing Mozart to places where classical music is not generally played.\" In all, over 3200 presentations of the great man's works are scheduled over the twelve months.\nIn the latter part of 2006, internationally acclaimed director Peter Sellars will present a festival based on the themes of \"Transformation,\" \"Reconciliation\" and \"Remembrance.\" Entitled \"New Crowned Hope,\" after the Masonic Lodge Mozart helped establish in 1791 towards the end of his life, it promises to be an intellectually challenging feast. Sellars will assemble many artists from a wide range of disciplines posing the question, \"How would Mozart compose today?\"\nAudiences can look forward to contemporary interpretations of Mozart's ideas and new productions generated by his work, but which may not contain a single note of the great man's music. \"We want to bridge the gap between the past and the present,\" says Patay. \"What does Mozart have to say to us today?\" This \"updating the relevance\" of Mozart, is just one of the criteria which underpins the extensive \"Mozart 2006\" programme.\nOpera \"The Marriage of Figaro\"\nAnother criterion is that of \"self-sustainability,\" of which the reopening of the Mozarthaus is a prime example. During his ten years in Vienna, Mozart and his family were fairly nomadic, changing their abode 14 times. It was behind St Stephen's Cathedral, at Domgasse 5 (the Mozarthaus), where Mozart was at his most prolific and happiest. Here he composed his most popular opera \"The Marriage of Figaro,\" and lived for a whole three years with wife Constanze, two children, a dog and a bird. (Legend has it that the bird could warble a rondo from one of his eleven piano concertos and that when it died Mozart was so overcome with grief that he composed a funeral march in its memory.)\nIt was at Domgasse 5 that Mozart gave numerous concerts, threw wild parties, and hosted many illustrious colleagues including Joseph Haydn. In the recently renovated Mozarthaus, through use of state-of-the art multimedia and interactive displays, visitors can get to know the great man, listen to his music, learn how the family lived, \"meet\" his friends and foes, and generally gain an insight into life in 18th century Vienna. In addition to the Mozart and social memorabilia, part of the 1000 square metre, six floor exhibition in the Mozarthaus is devoted to a small concert hall, caf\u00e9 and souvenir shop.\nThe Albertina, the magnificent neo-classical Habsburg Palace built during Mozart's time and located next to the State Opera House, will host a major exhibition focusing on the composer's ideas and his enduring influence. It will seek to create, says Patay, \"A bridge from Mozart's time to contemporary society.\" Prized artworks and exciting virtual-reality installations chronicle the maestro's life, exploring themes such as his progress from whiz kid to freemason, from child genius to confectionery clich\u00e9, while exploring the intellectual and philosophical horizons of his free spirit. One of the more unusual exhibits is a modern interpretation of a Montgolfiere \u2013 a hot-air balloon like those which so fascinated Mozart.\nOn the Rathausplatz, the magnificent fa\u00e7ade of Vienna's neo-Gothic City Hall serves as a backdrop for the Mozart Film Festival. Here Mozart operas and concert performances, staged at the world's leading venues, enhanced by first-class sound and projection technology, can be viewed at dusk each evening (between July and September) on a giant screen. Admission is free, with patrons able to purchase a wide range of gastronomic delights from the many food outlets around the Square.\nProgrammes for children and youth; for dance, theatre and literature; for performance and painting, will all seek to keep, what Patay terms, \"the freshness and dynamic tension\" of the \"Spirit of Mozart\" in Vienna during 2006. Given the extent and breadth of the programme, it is unlikely that 31 December 2006 will herald the final coda of the \"Mozart Year,\" but merely serve as a prelude for all the Mozart years to come.\nJohn Hagan was hosted by the Vienna Tourist Board.\nFor details of the \"Mozart 2006\" programme: www.wien.info and www.mozart2006.net\nFor hotel bookings and general tourist information contact the Vienna Tourist Board: www.vienna.info",

Pretty much every good mens clothing brand is going to carry a navy suit, but this is very very different from the blue suit. A Navy suit is still conservative enough, it\u2019s a shade off from charcoal or black, but is still and is a must in the traditional mens wardrobe. However, living in the modern era and appealing to the modern sensibility we want something with just slightly a little more flare, that can easily be worn during work hours and then after hours. The obviously the appropriate shade of blue is very important, you don\u2019t want navy, that\u2019s too conservative and it can\u2019t be too close to the standard blue jeans color, otherwise you run the risk of looking like Papa Smurf when you go casual. The choices it seems have been either go much lighter with some sort of a pattern, or try and find the lightest navy around.\nOur quest for the particular suit in question goes back quite a few years to the movie A Good Year, with Russel Crowe, where his uncle played by Albert Finney is dispensing his particular take on living life well and issues the statement, \u201cNever underestimate the importance of a good blue suit\u201d. It has been since then that we have been on this quest, just about for a decade now. While most mens closets have their fill of grey, or charcoal, navy and of course at least 30 black suits, the true blue suit still remains elusive. Perhaps the difficulty in finding it is what makes it so desirable. Rest assured, while we have tried, and posted and will continue to do so, we will not rest until we find it.\nIn this story: Fashion, Mens Fashion, Style, Suits, Well Dressed Category: Style",

        "raw_content": "Guest Post: \"Chamber-towers not \u2018hall-houses\u2019! Time to accept the change\" by Dr. Karen Dempsey.\nAnglo-Norman castles in Ireland are typically earthwork and/or masonry structures of varying shapes and sizes ranging from very large complexes to smaller buildings. It is the smaller scale castles of the thirteenth century that we are going to look at today. These buildings, formerly described as \u2018hall-houses\u2019, comprise a rectangular two-storeyed block with a first-floor entrance that provided access into a single open space at first-floor level (Fig. 1). The interpretation of these buildings has recently been a contentious topic in Irish castle-studies (see O\u2019Keeffe 2013). Although, the architectural description outlined above is accurate, the previous understanding of the function \u2013 how these buildings were used in the past by people \u2013 is incredibly problematic. In brief, the \u2018hall-house\u2019 was believed to have contained a hall at first-floor level (McNeill 1997; Sweetman 1999; Manning 2009; Barry 2010). This is incorrect and the following blog demonstrates how we know this to be so.\nFigure 1 Ballisnahyny Castle, Co. Mayo. View from north\nAnglo-Norman castle complexes contained a number of buildings, the most important of which were the hall and the chamber. During the twelfth century, the hall and chamber were contained within the same structure \u2013 a large donjon. This typically comprised a large tower where the hall and chamber were positioned side by side at first-floor level but separated by either a timber or masonry arcade or with the chamber placed above the hall (Fig. 2).\nFigure 2 Plan of Tower of London. Hall and chamber at first-floor level.\nThese castles were common in England and France during the twelfth century but they are very rare in Ireland. Only two examples of an Anglo-Norman donjon where the hall and chamber occur together at first-floor level in one structure are known in Ireland: Trim, Co. Meath and Maynooth, Co. Kildare (Fig. 3). Both were constructed in the later twelfth century (Sweetman 1978; O\u2019Keeffe 2013). By the thirteenth century the separation of the hall and chamber became apparent both in Ireland and the rest of the Anglo-Norman world.\nFigure 3 Maynooth Castle: hall and chamber at first-floor level (after O'Keeffe 2013).\nIn Ireland most castles from the thirteenth century contained a separate hall and separate chamber (Fig. 4). During this period the chamber was the most visible structure within the castle complex as it was typically two storeys or more and often in a central location. The hall was usually located along a side wall of the castle complex. Both buildings were physically dominant within the castle complex although the chamber was the more prominent of the two.\nFigure 4 Athenry Castle Complex: hall and chamber\nThe hall and chamber were complimentary spaces and acted in partnership. The medieval hall is understood as a \u2018public\u2019 space where the lord and lady carried out their seigneurial (lordly) duties and the medieval chamber as \u2018private\u2019 where they could retreat from \u2018public\u2019 life. Understandings of privacy in the medieval world were certainly different to our own modern views. Privacy for us might mean being by ourselves; however, for the lord and lady, we believe privacy was very different. It meant not being in full view of their entire household or indeed the inhabitants of the lord\u2019s manor. These two buildings through their architecture and function shaped the lives of the people who interacted with them.\nUnderstanding the medieval hall and chamber\nAs mentioned above the medieval chamber was the most prominent building of the castle-complex. It was constructed of stone and typically two-storeys in height (though could be more). Its main habitation space was positioned at first-floor level and contained access to latrines. Although the chamber did not have a set architectural form they are predominantly square or rectangular; however, there are a number of circular examples, for example Dublin Castle or the lesser known Mocollop, Co. Waterford. The chamber-tower could also contain a number of floors, for example, the large donjon at Carrickfergus or the smaller chamber-tower at Kinlough (Fig. 5).\nFigure 5 Kinlough Castle chamber-tower. Blocked latrine visible on wall-face\nThe medieval hall of a castle complex had a unique architectural signature: and there is little room to confuse this structure with the residential space of the chamber. It was rectangular in plan with dimensions of 2:1, positioned at ground-floor level with a central hearth or prominent fireplace. It contained opposing entrances usually in the long walls with a significant emphasis on fenestration (Fig. 6). In other words, windows were an incredibly important part of a medieval hall. They were very large and often contained seats at the base of the window in the thickness of the wall. A services area was located at one end of the hall. It contained the buttery and pantry, two rooms that contained all the wet and dry goods of a medieval household: linen, flour and items such as candlesticks for the pantry and beer for the buttery (Gardiner 2008). An access passage to an external kitchen eventually developed between these two rooms. This services end was considered the low status end of the hall which contrasted with the area where the lord sat, the raised dais \u2013 and elevated platform where the lord and lady sat \u2013 also known as the \u2018high end\u2019.\nFigure 6 Medieval Hall at Oakham Castle (Hill 2013)\nA medieval hall typically operated as the administrative and social centre of a lord\u2019s estate. The medieval hall facilitated the public side of the lord and lady\u2019s life where they carried out the duties that their position commanded. In other words, it acted as a venue where the public rituals of the lord and lady\u2019s role could be acted out. The hall was a venue for ceremony and fealty (the act of showing allegiance) which included sharing meals, administering justice, and estate management. It was where the feasting, dining and entertainment happened. We can all imagine a medieval feast with a big fire and lots different plates of food on show (Fig. 7).\nFigure 7 Later medieval feasting scene\nThe medieval chamber, its partner, functioned as a private residential space where the lord and lady could retreat from the medieval halls to be alone (in the medieval sense) or with a selected few from their household (Fig. 8). Although they were not truly alone in the modern sense but they were removed from their \u2018public\u2019 life.\nFigure 8 Reconstructed chamber at the Tower of London\nThe chamber building as part of the medieval castle complex has survived with over hundred examples of various ranks known. However, the survival of medieval halls is rare in Ireland with just over ten examples surviving above ground level. Those that do survive are quite ruined despite being constructed of masonry. These halls belonged to very high-ranking lords and are found at castles such as Adare, Co. Limerick (Fig. 9) and Athenry, Co. Galway (Fig.10). It is believed that halls below this level of Anglo-Norman society were constructed of timber with a stone foundation \u2013 a pattern also found in England. Therefore, owing to Ireland\u2019s climate (among other reasons) these do not survive above ground level.\nFigure 9 Adare, Co. Limerick. Chamber rises above castle complex with hall positioned along the river\nFigure 10 Athenry Castle Complex: hall and chamber\nThis apparent lack of medieval halls has certainly hampered past understandings of castles. There appears to have been an assumption made that the surviving upstanding structures at a number of castle sites were halls not chambers despite not fitting the typical criteria of medieval halls as outlined above. It may be from this assumption that we see the emergence of the term \u2018hall-house\u2019.\nThe chamber-tower\nAs we have seen the architecture and function of a medieval hall and chamber were somewhat different. We can also see that the medieval hall had a very clear architectural signature: positioned at ground floor, and also, crucially, it contained a central hearth. The \u2018hall-house\u2019 was understood to have contained a hall a first-floor level but as we now know given the architectural signature of an actual medieval hall this seems to be highly unlikely. These \u2018hall-houses\u2019 - are actually chambers \u2013 private residences of lords \u2013 they do not contain a central hearth, they have first-floor entrances and no easily identifiable high or low end. Access it quite restricted making them an unlikely candidate for a medieval hall and typically there internal dimensions are not very large (Fig. 11).\nFigure 11 Plan of Annaghkeen Castle, Co. Galway. Clear indication of latrine and first floor entrance.\nThis \u2018new\u2019 understanding is not novel but its application in Ireland is innovative. Dr. John Blair identified this problem (the misidentification of these chamber-towers as medieval halls) in England during the early 1990s (Blair 1999). In fact, in England (and France) it is generally accepted that these two-storey masonry structures are chambers whose medieval hall has been lost. Boothby Pagnall, Lincolnshire, was long considered an \u2018upper-hall\u2019 (Wood 1965), the English equivalent to the \u2018hall-house\u2019, but subsequent geophysical survey and excavation revealed the presence of a lost ground-floor hall (Harris & Empey 2002). The chamber at Boothby Pagnall bears more than a passing resemblance to Annaghkeen Castle, Co. Galway (Figs. 12 & 13). Furthermore, it became increasingly obvious that a number of well-known castle sites, typically identified as having a \u2018hall\u2019 at first-floor level very overtly adhered to the plan of separate hall and chamber including Athenry Castle, Co. Galway (Fig. 9) or Adare, Co. Limerick (Fig. 10).\nFigure 12 Boothby Pagnall, Lincs. A former upper-hall more correctly understood as a chamber\nFigure 13 Annaghkeen Castle, Co. Galway. Bears more than a passing resemblance to Boothby Pagnall\nInspired by Blair's theory on halls and chambers, my doctoral research examined the architecture and historical documentation of over one hundred thirteenth-century masonry structures in Ireland that were identified as possible chamber-towers. They contained a large space at first-floor level (and therefore access was restricted) and latrines, a feature absent from medieval halls. Further to this, earth resistance was carried out a number of typical \u2018hall-house\u2019 sites including Ballisnahyny and Shrule in Co. Mayo and Annaghkeen, Co. Galway as well as a selection of castle-sties from Co. Roscommon. These surveys revealed sub-surface structures at each site that very likely are medieval halls conforming to the seemingly homogenous castle-complex plan that became ubiquitous across Anglo-Norman Ireland and England during the late twelfth and thirteenth centuries. The re-interpretation of previous information plus this new survey work suggests that like in England, these castles formerly understood as \u2018hall-houses\u2019 are in fact chambers or chamber-towers which functioned as the private residential accommodation of the lord and lady.\nBarry, T. 2010. \u2018A bibliographic review of Irish castle-studies\u2019, in Proceedings of the Royal Irish Academy Section C: Archaeology, Celtic Studies, History, Linguistics and Literature. 108, p115- 136.\nBlair, J. 1993. \u2018Hall and chamber: English domestic planning 1000-1250\u2019, in G.

        "raw_content": "Judge Minora of Lackawanna County Rules on Jury Selection Issues.\nIn his recent decision on post-trial motions in the medical malpractice case of Carlitz v. Delta Medix, No. 2011-CV-1458 (C.P. Lacka. Co. July 15, 2015, Minora, J.), Judge Carmen D. Minora of the Lackawanna County Court of Common Pleas addressed, in part, the issue of whether the court should have stricken prospective jurors for cause based upon their situation on financial relationships with a Defendant medical provider and a Defendant doctor.\nThe court noted that, in support of their challenge for cause during jury selection, Plaintiff cited to the case of Cordes v. Associates of Internal Medicine, 87 A.3d 829, appeal denied, 102 A.3d 986 (Pa. 2014). The Plaintiffs otherwise objected to the fact that they were required to use their peremptory challenges on certain perspective jurors who had treated with a Defendant medical provider and/or the Defendant's expert witness doctor, or who had been employed by one of the Defendants. According to the opinion, overall, the Plaintiffs had objections to at least four (4) of the jurors who were empaneled.\nJudge Minora reviewed the law pertaining to the granting or denying of challenges to a prospective juror and applied that law to the case before him.\nAlthough the court found that it need not rule on this jury issue because it already determined that the Plaintiffs were entitled to a new trial based upon other statements made by defense counsel during the course of the trial, Judge Minora nevertheless concluded that the Plaintiffs\u2019 contention that certain prospective jurors should have been removed for cause is without merit (raising a question as to whether this portion of the decision amounts to dicta -- the decision is instructive in any event). Rather, the court believed that the Plaintiffs attempted to use cause challenges where peremptory challenges were required.\nJudge Minora also emphasized that, at issue in this matter, where alleged relationships between the jurors and professional corporation Defendants as opposed to party Defendant positions, as was the case in the Cordes matter. Overall, Judge Minora stated that there was no case law holding that a situation or relationship warranting removal for cause arises from the fact that a prospective juror, or his or her relative, is a patient of a professional corporation Defendant or a non-party expert witness, or is employed by a non-party expert witness or his practice group.\nJudge Minora did indicate that if the prospective jurors were indeed employees of a corporate Defendant or patients of a Defendant\u2019s position, the court would have found merit in the Plaintiffs\u2019 argument. However, those facts are not before the court. As such, the court found that there was no error of any kind during the jury selection process.\nJudge Minora ended his opinion by stating that \"All parties are entitled to a fair, objective and impartial jury of their peers, but not to a jury of their choosing.\" [citations omitted].\nA copy of Judge Minora's Opinion, which includes his analysis in support of a granting of a new trial on other grounds, can be viewed HERE.\nLabels: Judge Minora, Jury Selection, Voir Dire",

        "raw_content": "You are here: Home / RuPaul Talks Game Shows, the Gay Aesthetic and his Dirtiest Charades\nRuPaul Talks Game Shows, the Gay Aesthetic and his Dirtiest Charades\nApril 11, 2016 by Bobby Hankinson Leave a Comment\nSince its debut in the second season of RuPaul\u2019s Drag Race, The Snatch Game has become a fan-favorite tradition. The homage to classic game shows was the perfect place to showcase host RuPaul\u2019s talent for turning a phrase and his encyclopedic pop culture knowledge. Tonight, with the premiere of Ru\u2019s new project, Gay For Play, viewers will see if the formula is just as successful without the competing queens.\nSurvey says? It is.\nA delicious double-decker of camp, Gay For Play borrows elements from Game Show Network fixtures like Hollywood Squares, Password and Pyramid, covers the proverbial brow in Elmer\u2019s Glue and pancakes on pounds of shimmering queer humor. Contestants are asked a battery of questions about pop culture and celebrities that test their knowledge of everything from IMDB credits to identifying Hollywood hunks solely on their butts. The resulting rapid-fire quiz show is double-stuffed with double entendre, packed with puns and, of course, features a bunch of underwear-clad men. The rotating panel of celebrities include familiar faces like Michelle Visage, Ross Mathews, Carson Kressley and other Drag Race staples, but, at the heart of it all is Ru.\nWith his gigawatt smile and irresistible laugh, it\u2019s hard not to enjoy Gay For Play as much as the host clearly is. When it comes to RuPaul, though, even the seemingly silliest moments are steeped in sage wisdom. Gay For Play doesn\u2019t just lovingly recreate beloved shows from the days of yore. It honors the medium that beamed folks like Charles Nelson Reilly and Paul Lynde into America\u2019s living rooms with a spectacle that proudly asserts its gay aesthetic at every turn. As Ru says in the show\u2019s intro, \u201cYou don\u2019t have to be gay to play, but it sure do help.\u201d\nWe spoke with Ru about the show, the jokes too twisted for TV, which presidential candidate he would want to be his bonus round partner and so much more. See what he had to say in our interview below!\nWhat drew you to the gameshow format?\nI\u2019ve always loved games. I\u2019ve had game nights at my house for years and years and years. It\u2019s a great way to get to know people. It\u2019s a fast track into their intellectual DNA. Rather than have people come over and talk about what project they\u2019re working on, you give them a game, and you get to see what the f*** they\u2019re working with.\nAny game night memories in particular reveal something about someone you weren\u2019t expecting?\nMostly what it reveals is their ability to solve problems, their ability to stick with it and their ability to be creative. That\u2019s the real litmus test of playing Charades, which is my favorite. Actually, we stopped playing Charades years ago, and have only exclusively played Dirty Charades, which is where you change a title, you can only change one word of an existing title, and you have to keep the exact same number of syllables. After you play that, there\u2019s no going back to regular Charades. One of my favorites is a TV show, Doctor Queef Medicine Woman. Or 20,000 Loads Under the Sea. You know, the Jules Verne classic?\nRight, I think I did a report on that in middle school.\nThere\u2019s something about that classic game show humor, all the puns and the double entendre. They would talk about \u2018making whoopie,\u2019 and make all these sort of sly gay references, and it feels like Gay For Play is really sticking to that kind of humor.\nAbsolutely. That\u2019s what we wanted to achieve. That\u2019s what we all grew up watching. We love the inclusivity of those stars and how cheeky they were. I love using the term \u2018making whoopie,\u2019 on Hollywood Squares with Paul Lynde or Charles Nelson Reilly on Match Game. They were so funny and so clearly smart and so clearly wink-wink, nudge-nudge at the status quo.\nWhat\u2019s also interesting about game shows is that they were sort of the original reality TV in a lot of ways. We saw real people, and real gay people.\nI have so much respect for those guys and Rip Taylor. All those guys who couldn\u2019t completely be \u2018Hey, I\u2019m gay!\u2019 but they didn\u2019t change who they were to be on television. And everyone knew they were gay, and they presented themselves without apology. In fact, years ago, I met Charles Nelson Reilly, and he said he wrote me a letter \u2014 somehow it never got to me \u2014 but he wrote me a letter saying how proud he was to live in an era where an out gay man, black, whatever, could be a star on television. I thought that was so sweet.\nIn many ways, Gay For Play is honoring that legacy, but much more openly. The whole show is amped up. You\u2019ve described it as the gay aesthetic done right by gay people. At a time when you can\u2019t go a day without hearing someone yelling \u201cYAS KWEEN!\u201d what are some of the things you think mainstream culture gets wrong about the gay aesthetic?\nWell, the irreverence and the irony. It\u2019s easy to throw on an outfit or throw out a phrase, but if you don\u2019t understand where the irony is in it or where the irreverence is in it, then you\u2019re not using it the right way. You\u2019re still getting the cachet and the currency of using a word or phrase that\u2019s topical and makes you say, \u2018Oh look, you\u2019re clearly hanging out with gay people! Bravo!\u2019 But that person doesn\u2019t understand why that twist of a phrase is important. It\u2019s really saying none of this in this world is really that important. It\u2019s really saying don\u2019t take life too seriously. Play with words, twist a phrase, wink-wink, nudge-nudge. It\u2019s the only way to survive if you\u2019re super duper smart. Have words and life tickle you, otherwise it\u2019s just too mundane.\nWhat\u2019s the writing process like for you and your team?\nIt\u2019s really the same for everything we do over here at World of Wonder. We are old friends, old, old friends. We\u2019ve seen everything together, and all the references that we have come from the same source. So, if it tickles us, if it makes us laugh, then it\u2019s in. Especially if it\u2019s a little bit twisted.\nHas there been anything too twisted for TV?\nOh yeah! Standards and practices will come around sometimes and say, \u2018You can\u2019t say felching.\u2019 [Laughs]\nWho would be on your dream panel of celebrities, living or dead?\nPaul Lynde, Charles Nelson Reilly, Rip Taylor, Judge Judy, Phyllis Diller, Totie Fields, Merv Griffin. I\u2019d have Charo. I would have Kathy Griffin, and, oh!, Isaac Mizrahi, and how about Pamela Anderson? I could just go on and on. La Toya Jackson. Cher would be great on there. You know where I\u2019m going with this thing. It\u2019s all people who have an opinion, who are funny, who know how to deliver a punchline. Listen, I got to tell you, I\u2019m happy to do this show for the rest of my life with the panel that we have. I think they are so, so fabulous.\nWhich contemporary game shows are you a fan of today?\nI watch Jeopardy every single day. I love it so much. It just keeps my noggin well-oiled. By the way, I get most of my Dirty Charades titles from Jeopardy. They\u2019ll go \u2018Dickens\u2019 book about whatever,\u2019 and I\u2019ll go, \u2018Oh my god! A Tale of Two Titties! That\u2019s brilliant!\u2019 It inspires me to come up with Dirty charades. [Laughs] \u2026 A Tale of Two Titties \u2026\nI would read that!\nI would read that! You know, the greatest? The greatest Dirty Charade of all time \u2014 and I\u2019ve played for years \u2014 but the greatest title of all time is a musical, a Broadway musical, and the title is Annie Get Your Cum.\nWas that one of your creations?\nOh yes! Oh yes! Annie Get Your Cum.\nOut of the current crop of presidential candidates, who would you choose as your partner in the bonus round and why?\nI would choose Hillary Clinton because she is a smart cookie. She doesn\u2019t even let on as to how smart she is, because she knows most people are intimidated by that. But I would totally choose Hillary Clinton. She\u2019s so smart. She\u2019s got her intuition intact. I connect with women.\nYou have the album, there\u2019s Drag Race, Gay For Play is coming up, All Stars 2 down the road, what else is on your radar?\nI\u2019ve always got s**t on my radar. I\u2019ve got tons of s**t. We\u2019ve got DragCon coming up in a month. I\u2019ve got a remix album coming up. We also have a RuPaul\u2019s Drag Race: The Rusical Soundtrack coming out, you know all of those \u201cDragazonian Airways\u201d and the \u201cRu Cappella,\u201d all those are coming out on an album in the next couple of weeks. It is so good.\nIt\u2019s like Lucian Piane\u2019s masterpiece, his opus.\nExactly. That\u2019s coming up, and I\u2019ve got Skin Wars coming up and Fresh Paint.\nAny other books coming from you?\nI\u2019m preparing for my next book right now, actually.\nAnything else you can say about that?\nI can\u2019t say much other than that it\u2019s going to blow minds. It\u2019s more of a think piece.\nGay For Play premieres with two new episodes tonight at 10 p.m. Eastern on Logo.\nFiled Under: Uncategorized Tagged With: Charles Nelson Reilly, Drag Queens, Game Shows, Gay For Play, interview, Paul Lynde, rupaul, rupaul's drag race, Television",

        "raw_content": "First race of 2010!! Yippee!!\nWe had a bit of a crazy week leading in to the race... my car was rear ended on Monday with both my boys in the back seat - in car seats thank goodness! and my littlest one ended up at the ER on Thursday with low blood oxygen levels from what we think was an asthma attack! The whole story is on the boys' blog here)\nBut nothing we can't handle and you just gotta keep moving forward...\nFriday night I start to get ready for the race and thinking about the race plan... once again Laura's biggest goal for me was the negative split. My original goal of 7:20 pace (which I totally thought was a stretch goal) was abandoned when I finally sucked it up and asked Laura what I should shoot for... her answer... between 41 and 44 min... ummm okay... for those who don't have an instance pace calculator in their head 41 min is 6:35 pace and 44 is 7:06.\nMy first thought was... wow, she really thinks I can do that? I'm easily persuaded because all of a sudden I was thinking... of course I can do that!\nI love the power of suggestion.\nSo I quickly text my racing buddy Andrea... what do you think of going for 7:00 pace? she said, let's do it!\nahh, so here we are the night before the race and I feeling fairly confident about the idea of a 44... I had run some intervals the week before that suggested 7:00 pace avg was totally doable...\nWake up Saturday morning... get dressed, grab my banana and some First Endurance EFS, phone, race stuff, etc. and head out the door...\nMusic on the way to the race started out soothing... Coldplay... then moved to rockin' beats (XXX soundtrack)...\nMeet up with Kate and Andrea, warm up a little, but mostly just goof around. Ran in to Coach Dan, always puts you in a happy frame of mind...\nI was feeling relaxed and ready to go... I had the pacing on my watch set up for the negative split plan... The first mile was incredible, felt effortless... the only effort was keeping the pace a little slower, second mile I was starting to groove, I looked over at Andrea and said \"I'm feeling good\"... It looked like she was doing well too! the third mile was feeling great... it was getting a little windy, but nothing to really affect the pace... as I closed in on Mile 4 mark I was thinking, this is so cool, you can totally do this!!! Then my left quad felt a little tweak... tweak became pain, and somewhere in the middle of mile 4 tweek became cramp in left quad...\nahh, yes, the watch, looking for some negative split action starts yelling at me to speed up... I can't you stupid watch, I'm using all my concentration to keep this left leg swinging forward!\nI could run, it just hurt really badly... like someone kind of stretching your muscle farther than should be possible, with every step I took... I knew I wasn't going to do any permanent damage to my muscle by finishing the race so I just took it a mile at a time...\nFinally got to the second turn around... I actually stopped close to mile 6 to see if I could stretch my leg and sprint in to the finish... I attempted to stretch out the quad a little and just couldn't even lift my foot up behind me enough to do that... so I gave up on that idea and just kept running... finally heard my watch beep that I made it to mile 6... then I could see the finish and I knew I could make it... Dan (who finished long ago) was at the finish telling me to sprint... it was a really nice idea but those legs weren't going any faster...\nCrossed the line... 44:30... Kate was there to catch me (Kate I told you'd have to do that!!) and Andrea was right there to give me a hug and congrats, we were so psyched with our races, a PR for both of us!\nOk... so here's the deal... I'll be the first to admit after the race I was thinking... wow, what could I have done if I didn't cramp, I was feeling so good... but when it comes down to it, for whatever reason (stress of the week, dehydration going into the race, etc.) I did cramp, and that's just what happened on the day... I dealt with it best I could and finished the race. So that's my race, no what if's floating around here... if I feel strongly enough that I have to prove to myself I could have finished faster, then I'll just have to find another 10k race.\nBut in the meantime, it's back to triathlon training. :-)\nThe numbers from the day...\nThe big one... finish time of 44:30 is a 10k pr of over 4:10 and improvement of over 4:45 from my time on same course last year)\nSo, no negative split... but 2nd half was only 10 seconds slower so I'll take it! and now that I look at it, I'm thinking 21:15 is most likely the fastest 5k I've run...\nAll in all a good day for me... I proved that I could get myself through some crappy times... I'm frustrated because I feel like I'm doing that a lot and now I'm starting to wonder if its possible I'm just a whiner...\nMost importantly, I had a great time with my friends! It really makes it all worth it! That and the surprise in Alex's voice when I called to tell him we were sticking around for the awards ceremony. I was certain Kate would be getting a placing and there was a possibility for Andrea and me...\nTurns out... Kate was 1st in her AG and Andrea and I were 3rd and 2nd respectively in ours!\nGo Moms! :-D\nLabels: race report, running, saltstick",

Paul wrote, \"For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality\" (1 Cor. 15:53). The millennial speculators have a problem here with just how many times this takes place. Hal Lindsay said this is a mystery but takes place at the imaginary \"Rapture\" (Late Great Planet Earth, p. 130). His theory is that the saints will be in the \"Rapture\" with Christ in immortal bodies that are spiritual bodies, glorious bodies, not affected by the pain and discomforts of a physical body.\nMillennialists can hardly write two paragraphs or speak five minutes without getting themselves into all sorts of difficulties with their speculations. Lindsay also wrote about the return of Christ \"with\" His saints to set up this also imaginary millennial kingdom. He said, \"Third, Christ establishes the millennial kingdom and the surviving believers go into it as mortals and repopulate the earth\" (Ibid., p. 167). They were immortal as believers in the \"Rapture\" and now after the establishment of this alleged \"millennium\" they go in as mortals. What happens when the millennium ends? Your guess is just as good as Lindsay's or anyone elses. The fact is that there is no such thing as either \"Rapture,\" \"Armageddon,\" or \"the Millennium.\" It is a grand hoax.",

        "raw_content": "This is not sport: it's politics\nSingle Issue XVI\n\u2018This is not sport: it\u2019s politics.\u2019 How and why did Roman elites in both the republican and imperial periods seek to control the gladiatorial and circus games?\nBy Caligula\nFor the elites of Rome in both the Republican and Imperial periods, the games did not amount to mere entertainment for the masses, but were a tool of control and influence. Through the games, the people of Rome could make their voices heard to the influential elites; whilst up-and-coming politicians could curry favour and attention with the mob by putting on extravagant shows. The ways in which the Roman elites sought to control the games evolved over time, but throughout the republican and imperial periods they were used for propaganda and displays of both the vast power and wealth of Rome.\nThe games were always about power, from the first gladiatorial games given as funeral games to honour a family member\u2019s legacy. The first such game to be held in Rome is recorded by Valerius Maximus as having been given in 264BC by two men (one of whom had been a consul) for their deceased father, in which six gladiators fought (cited in Hopkins 1983, p. 4). The power displayed in these games was the power of life and death over these gladiators, with it being posited by the author Tertullian that funeral games involved the shedding of blood as a \u201cservice [rendered] to the dead\u201d (Tertullian, de Spectaculis 12). In time, these games grew more and more spectacular as the deaths of influential Romans became an \u201copportunity to demonstrate [an elite family\u2019s] power and prosperity\u201d (Kohne, Ewigleben & Jackson 2000, p. 11) in being able to host bigger and better games, transforming funeral processions into games of one-upmanship. In 174BC, 90 years after the first display of gladiators at funeral games, four days of games were given in honour of Titus Flaminius, an ex-consul, in addition to a public banquet, artistic performances and bouts between 74 gladiators (Livy, The History of Rome 41.28). In another 109 years, in 64BC, Julius Caesar held funeral games in honour of his father that involved 640 gladiators equipped with armour made of silver (Pliny the Elder, Natural Histories 33.16; Plutarch, Parallel Lives: Caesar 5.5). Gradually, the games also became political in nature because of their popularity with the people of Rome (Hopkins 1983), which caused the elites to seek to use the games for their own advantage. An illustrative example is that when political rivals had constructed seating at the location of the games and were hiring them out in 122BC, Gaius Gracchus used his position as tribune of the plebs to take the seating down, in order that the poor could enjoy the games without having to pay for seating (Plutarch, Parallel Lives: G Gracchus 12.3-4). In this way Gracchus could portray himself as the champion of the people, whilst his rivals lost face with the mob.\nThe Zliten mosaic, circa. 200 AD\nBy the time of the late Republic the games had reached extraordinary levels of ostentatiousness and were magnificent displays of not only an individual\u2019s wealth, but the might and reach of Rome as well. In particular, the introduction of foreign animals that had never before been seen by citizens of Rome; such as lions, panthers, giraffes, hippopotamuses and crocodiles (Pliny the Elder, Natural Histories 8; Dio Cassius, Roman History 38, 43); into the games were a direct display of the \u201cmilitary prowess and geographical expansion of Roman influence\u201d (Beacham 1999, p. 12). An elite who was able to pit elephants, infantry and horsemen against each other as Julius Caesar did in 46BC (Dio Cassius, Roman History 43.22); or beast hunts involving 500 lions and 18 elephants as organised by Pompey the Great (Dio Cassius, Roman History 39.38; Pliny the Elder, The Natural History 8.20) was sure to be remembered in the minds of the mob and to be seen as \u201ccitizens of status\u201d (Kyle 1998, p. 3). It was through this increasing extravagance that the Roman elites sought to monopolise the games, as only the elites could afford such expensive endeavours or had the connections to procure exotic animals.\nIn addition to these self-serving political reasons, it has been suggested by the poet Juvenal that the reason the elites wished to control the games is so that they could placate the mob. In the Republican period, the mob had held the power to bestow \u201clegions, the symbols of power\u201d but by the Imperial period \u201cthere are only two things that they ask for / bread and circuses\u201d (Juvenal, Satires 10.78-81). However the games did not always placate the mob, and the people of Rome could exercise power by voicing their grievances at the games, for as Cicero said, \u201cthe judgement and wishes of the Roman people about public affairs can be most clearly expressed in three places: public assemblies, elections and at plays or gladiatorial shows\u201d (Cicero, In Defence of Sestius 106). Thus the mob might yell at the host of the games, be they Republican magistrates or imperial emperors, and petition about the high price of corn (Tacitus, The Annals 6.13) or demand the execution of unpopular officials who had abused their power (Plutarch, Parallel Lives: Galba 17.4). From this evidence, it can be argued that the elites made the games more and more spectacular in order to give the mob novel entertainment as a means of placating them and averting potential unruliness.\nThe Chariot Race, Alexander von Wagner, 1882\nDuring the imperial period however, the motivations of the Roman elites for controlling the games had changed, as outlined in the quote by Juvenal above. The mob no longer held power over the elites, and thus control was not sought in order to gain the mob\u2019s vote, but to impress upon them the might of Rome. The games were a perfect venue for disseminating the emperor\u2019s propaganda. During the Emperor Caligula\u2019s reign, Pliny the Elder tells us the wealth of Rome was displayed for all to see via a scaffold that was constructed in the Circus Maximus upon which 124,000 pounds of silver were placed (Pliny the Elder, Natural Histories 33.16). This would have been a statement for the mob, fellow elites and visiting dignitaries about the power and wealth that was available to Rome and its emperors. In similar fashion, in 66AD the Emperor Nero covered the entire Theatre of Pompey in a layer of gold for one day in order to impress the Armenian king Tiridates, who had come to Rome to be installed as a puppet king (Pliny the Elder, Natural Histories 33.16). In addition to literal representations of the wealth of Rome, emperors would also host long-running games in celebration of military victories. Events such as the Emperor Trajan\u2019s 123 days of games in celebration of the conquest of Dacia, over the course of which 11,000 animals and 10,000 gladiators fought (Dio Cassius, Roman History 68.15), would have been constant propaganda to Romans of their superiority over their rivals. To the Roman people these displays of wealth and power must have created the sense that Rome was favoured by the gods for how else could the Roman Empire have grown so vast and achieve such victories.\nAs was discussed earlier, during the republican period control of the games was sought by the elites as a way of placating the mobs and gaining a political advantage over rivals. During the imperial period however, complete control of the games was sought by the emperors as an attempt to remove the possibility of Roman elites becoming popular with the mob by hosting lavish entertainments. In order to achieve this level of control, Augustus reduced the number of official gladiatorial shows to two per year and restricted their potential for splendour by prohibiting officials from spending more on their games than their rivals had, and by establishing a limit of only 120 gladiators being allowed per game (Dio Cassius, Roman History 54.2). These limitations did not apply to Augustus or his successors however, as seen by Augustus boasting of having hosted eight games in which a total of 10,000 men had fought (Augustus, Res Gestae Divi Augusti 22) or the 100 days of gladiatorial games held by Titus to commemorate the Flavian Amphitheatre, on the third day of which over 3,000 men fought (Dio Cassius, Roman History 66.25). As Tom Holland has said, during the reign of Augustus and his successors the games became even more spectacular than they had previously been but this was at the cost of them being staged solely by the emperor (Holland 2015, p. 267).\nPollice Verso, Jean-L\u00e9on G\u00e9r\u00f4me, 1872\nAugustus asserted his control over the games in other ways as well, such as through legislation which allocated specific seating to spectators of public shows depending on their position in the Roman social hierarchy. Suetonius and Dio Cassius relate that senators, equestrians, soldiers, married men, under-age boys and their tutors, women, those in dark cloaks and Vestal Virgins amongst others were covered by this legislation (Suetonius, Augustus 44; Dio Cassius, Roman History 55.22). It can be assumed that this was an attempt by Augustus to preserve the respect owed to senators and equestrians, whilst seeking to enforce social codes of conduct amongst participants. Augustus\u2019 control of the games also served as an opportunity to groom his family for succession. In the inscription of Augustus\u2019 accomplishments it is listed that he gave gladiatorial games and wild beast hunts in the name of his sons and grandsons (Augustus, Res Gestae Divi Augusti 22). By presenting games and ascribing them to his family, Augustus could introduce his sons and grandsons into the public eye and attempt to make their reputation greater than that of other Roman elites who could not host games on the same scale. In this way the games were a chance to refine the heir presumptive, a practice followed by the Praetorian Guard prefect Macro who groomed Caligula for succession by recommending that \u201cwhat matters when you watch the races in the Circus is not the sport itself, but rather to behave appropriately in the context of the sport\u201d (Philo, On the Embassy to Gaius 7).\nIn conclusion, to the Roman elites the gladiatorial and circus games were not mere sports, but politics. In the republican era by exerting control over the games an elite could make a name for themselves with particularly lavish entertainment which would hopefully be remembered by the mob when they ran for office. In the transition from the Republic to Empire, the control of the games was seized by the emperors who kept a strong hold on it lest potential rivals be born from the adoration of the crowd.\nAugustus 1924, Res Gestae Divi Augusti, trans.

        "title": "EB-5 Process",
        "raw_content": "EB-5 PROGRAM.\nEB-5 Overview\nThe U.S. government introduced the U.S. Immigrant Investor Pilot Program or Regional Center\u009d Program in 1993 as a way for foreign investors to obtain permanent residency in the United States. By investing a minimum of $500,000 (in targeted high unemployment areas) or $1,000,000 in businesses in approved geographic regions that create at least 10 full-time permanent jobs for U.S. workers, qualifying foreign investors and their families can obtain a conditional or temporary (2-year) green card. As long as the investment is maintained and achieves the job requirements for the EB5 Visa Program, unconditional\u009d or permanent green card status is then issued. EB5 visa holders enjoy all the benefits and advantages of U.S. residency during the two-year conditional period, including employment authorization, and can eventually apply for U.S. citizenship. Applying for and obtaining an EB5 visa can be challenging to prospective foreign investors. So that both investors and U.S. businesses can benefit from the EB5 Program, Golden Pacific oversees the administration and operation of the regional centers and is committed to providing comprehensive services to the investors.\nAdvantages of the U.S. Immigrant Investor Program\nThe U.S. immigrant investor program is the most flexible in the world. There are no requirements as to age, business training and experience, or language skills. Permanent residents do not need to be continuously and physically present in the United States, and can maintain business and professional relations in their origin country. The U.S. immigrant investment program allows investors a lot of freedom because it does not require the immigrant investor to manage their investment on a daily basis. Rather, they only need to \u2018actively engage\u2019 in a business enterprise, and can be limited partners and/or pursue other professional or personal ventures. In addition, the time spent as conditional permanent residents is credited towards the five year lawful permanent residency requirement for becoming U.S. citizen. Permanent Residents, including their family, are free to return to their homeland for visits or business purposes, as long as a residence is maintained in the United States.\nUpon receipt of conditional permanent resident status, the investor and their family (spouse and children under the age of 21 at time of application) are entitled to the same benefits as other lawful permanent residents, including:\n1) Living and working anywhere in the U.S.\n3) Can start and run your own business\n4) Sponsor green cards (residency) for your relatives\n5) Travel outside and return to the U.S. without a visa\n6) Education benefits \u2013 admission to state universities at resident costs\n7) Can become a U.S. Citizen after being a Permanent Resident for five years\n8) Many other benefits\nThe U.S. immigrant investor program (EB5 investor visa) was introduced in 1990 and attracted a relatively small number of immigrants. In 1993, the U.S. government modified its 1990 immigrant investor program. The 1990 regulations were retained, but it established a Pilot Program under which \u201cregional centers\u201d designated by the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS), now the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Service (USCIS), could be established. In a regional center, the job creation requirements are more flexible and investment opportunities can be made through limited partnerships and allowed a group of immigrant investors in each of these partnerships.\nPotential EB5 immigrant investors have certain advantages by applying through a regional center. For instance, if an immigrant investor were to apply for an EB5 investor visa independently, he or she would likely have to invest a minimum of US$1,000,000, however, through the Regional Center, the minimum investment is only US$500,000 because the investment would be located in an approved Targeted Employment Area (TEA). In addition, multiple investors can be pooled together into one project so that the project itself will be larger and financially more stable than one individual investing in a project alone. The limited partnerships will vary in size, from a few to over 100 investors. During the lifetime of the investment, the Regional Center remains in communication with each immigrant investor. All investors in the Regional Center project receive periodic reports regarding the status of the investment, job creation data, and other relevant project information.\nOne of the most important advantages for immigrant investors applying for an EB-5 investor visa through a regional center is that they may satisfy the program\u2019s job creation requirements by counting not only direct jobs created as a result of their investments, but also indirect jobs created in related industries as a result of the investment. Regional centers are able to calculate indirect job creation through the use of approved input-output employment modeling systems. This job creation methodology has been approved by USCIS and is beneficial because it does not require additional W-2 employment verification, minimizing the possibility of mistakes and errors in the payroll process.",

Even allowing for the fact that the republic has experienced two wars, this figure is a very large one.\nIn the scramble for the political dividends to be obtained from various amnesties, reconstruction projects and other much-bruited activities, street children have escaped the attention of Chechen society and the Chechen leadership.\nBut even now, when a peacetime mode of existence is becoming quite clearly established, the numbers of such children are increasing rather than the reverse. Over the past year, some 800 of them have been discovered. And about a thousand parents have been taken to court for child neglect.\nThe \u201cdifficult\u201d children, as they are called by the staff of the republic\u2019s juvenile rehabilitation inspectorates, are now approaching their favourite time of year, when it becomes possible for them to sleep out in the open. With the arrival of spring, their numbers usually increase.\nThe lives of such children have a rather narrow focus, which is centred mostly on begging, stealing, or at best a job at a gas station. Many of them start smoking or experimenting with alcohol at any early age. The most common activity is glue-sniffing. Before the war, foreign cameramen could literally \u201csmell out\u201d the places where such children were hiding, and the estranged faces of young drug addicts often appeared in the world's television news.\nRustam was only 10 when the second war began. His was the usual fate of the neglected child : divorced parents, a bad stepmother, a drunken father. Now he is almost 17. He has a job as an ancillary worker on a construction site, and earns around 300 roubles (about $12) a day. He is going to get married. He likes to remember the time when he was homeless. \u201cThey were the freest years of my life,\u201d he jokes.\n\u201cFor example, there are an awful lot of homeless kids in the village of Chernorechye [on the outskirts of Grozny], where I live. They live in basements and abandoned houses. I know some of them. I even tried to drag one of them out of there. I told a police officer I knew, and he took the boy home. But then he ran away from home again. Now he\u2019s in custody, charged with a criminal offence. A lot of kids end their childhood like that \u2013 behind bars.\u201d\nHe is sure that such children bring shame on all Chechens, who have always been proud of their traditions. When adults see street children, they pretend not to notice them, and some just swear at them.\nAt one point, Rustam was put in a children's home in Ingushetia. But a few days later he ran away from there. He said he didn\u2019t like it when the staff shouted at him. He thinks it\u2019s a good thing that the children\u2019s homes are being closed down, because the children in them were not being educated but morally crippled.\nThe measures taken by the authorities to identify neglected children in Chechnya have shown the seriousness of the problem this situation could lead to. Many observers are of the opinion that children of this kind need an individual approach, and a special program.\nAlthough many Chechens would be glad to adopt children from the disbanded orphanages, it is doubtful that any families would take in children whose mental and physical health has been already been ruined by smoking and drinking, or who are addicted to glue-sniffing\n\u00b7 Operations \"Illegal immigrant\" and \"Homeless Child\" (Chechnya.gov.ru, 23.3. 2007)",

A 28 mile portion would also serve as a levee in Hidalgo County to control flooding.\nDuring the recent congressional debate over funding the government beyond the end of the current fiscal year the White House backed down from insisting the wall be included in the bill. Tuesday, however, Office of Management and Budget Director Mick Mulvaney told the Austin American-Statesman, \u201cWe are absolutely dead serious about the wall. \u2026it is absolutely a priority for the president.\u201d\nOpposition to the plan is still strong. Estimates of the eventual cost of the wall run from $15 billion to $25 billion. U.S. Rep. Lloyd Doggett, D-Austin, is skeptical about the president\u2019s oft-repeated intent of having Mexico pay for the wall: \u201cPutting taxpayers on the hook to pay for it is just the latest brick in a wall of broken campaign promises. If we are going to pour billions into concrete, it ought to be an investment in ourselves, rebuilding our crumbling infrastructure.\u201d\nHouse and Senate Republicans do have the votes to approve the border security plan voting goes along party lines.\nTexas U.S. Senator John Cornyn chaired a hearing Tuesday before the Senate Judiciary Committee\u2019s Subcommittee on Border Security and Immigration. During the hearing he said, \u201cIf we really want to secure our borders, and I think the voters in this last presidential election indicated they did, we must be willing to devote the necessary level of funding to achieve it.\u201d",

In an email obtained by WBRZ, officials warned employees the entire Virginia College system was closing.\n\u201c...the Department of Education added requirements that made operating our schools more challenging. In addition, last night ACICS suspended our schools\u2019 accreditation with intent to withdraw. The uncertainty of these requirements resulted in an inability to acquire additional capital to operate our schools,\u201d Stu Reed, the CEO of Virginia College\u2019s parent company, wrote in the email.\nThe for-profit college focuses on technical training careers \u2013 ranging from medical services to culinary disciplines. Earlier this year, it warned it was no longer admitting students.\nNews Wednesday was bleaker.\n\u201cIt is with extreme regret that this series of recent circumstances has forced us to discontinue the operations of our schools effective with the completion of the current module or term for most students. There will also be a small group of employees to provide an orderly closure process for a short period thereafter,\u201d Reed wrote.\nEmployees were told to check with supervisors about when their \u201clast day of employment\u201d would be. All employees were told they would receive wages for time worked along with accrued but unused vacation.\nThe Education Corporation of America plans to work with students to ensure access to their transcripts so they can complete their studies at another school. The idea is to transition students who haven't completed their courses into another program at another proprietary program in the area. There will be an option for refunds if the student chooses to take that route.\nVirginia College in Shreveport will close Friday, December 7, and the Baton Rouge location will close December 18. Students will be able to finish this semester, take their finals, and walk for graduation if they qualify.",

        "title": "The Chanda Plan Foundation: Changing Lives Through Access to Integrative TherapyWheel:Life",
        "raw_content": "Editor\u2019s Note: When conventional medicine was failing quadriplegic Chanda Hinton-Leichtle, she knew something had to change. At just 59 pounds and chronically ill in her early 20s, her sister suggested trying integrative therapy. Thanks to those therapies, her health began to turn around, and she realized others in her situation could surely benefit from the same methods. Yet, during a discouraging phone call with Medicaid, she was told that only legislative change could get them to pay for what were in her case, life-saving therapies. Wheel:Life writer Betsy Bailey chatted with Director of Operations and healthcare advocate Maggie Cavanagh on what Hinton-Leichtle did next on how she is spearheading a campaign for systemic change in health care.\nWhen Chanda called Medicaid and asked how she could get them to cover her integrative therapies, she explained to them that she was actually saving them money because she was on less medication and no longer using as many traditional medical treatments. They told her that in order to get those therapies covered by Medicaid, it would take legislative change. So, she created the Chanda Plan Foundation to advocate for Medicaid to pay for integrative therapy. We know it improves quality of life. We know it\u2019s cost-effective. However, since these changes take time, the foundation also focuses on allowing people to access services right now.\nProviding Access to Integrative Therapy Nationwide\nThe Chanda Plan is a national program. Anybody living in the United States who meets our eligibility criteria can apply and ask for financial assistance to get therapy at a provider location near them. They can ask for funding for massage, acupuncture, chiropractic, yoga, adaptive exercise, and physical therapy from a provider accessible to them. That may mean receiving service at a provider near them or finding someone who can come to their home.\nEditor\u2019s Note: More information on the nationwide provider-based program and eligibility requirements can be found at iamtheplan.org/direct-services.\nMedicaid\u2019s Spinal Cord Injury Waiver\nOn the legislative front, we passed a pilot program called the Spinal Cord Injury Waiver. It was passed in 2009 and initiated in 2012. With the SCI Waiver, people on Medicaid over the age of 18 living in the Denver Metro area with a diagnosis of SCI can receive massage, acupuncture, and chiropractic care paid for by Medicaid.\nOur ultimate goal is to make this a permanently covered benefit for those with not only SCI but other disabilities as well.\nThrough the program, we\u2019re collecting information to show that these therapies lead to an improved quality of life which allows people to rejoin the community. Integrative therapy is also more cost-effective than going to the ER and taking prescription medications. The state will be studying the data to make sure it makes sense to implement the program as a permanent benefit. Currently, the SCI waiver is set to end in 2020, but we are going to be looking to renew it. We want to continue the program as long as possible until we feel we have enough data to prove its merit.\nChanda Center for Health\nWith the foundation and the Medicaid waiver, we realized we were getting a lot of demand for services. People were coming to us for the financial aspect and were also asking where they could find a quality provider. So, we decided to open our first location where we could have quality control and hire all of our own providers. We wanted to create an accessible community space so people could come and get those services and know they are seeing someone who is competent. We rented space for that service in 2013 and quickly outgrew it. We had many funders wanting to continue to help us with this program, but we just didn\u2019t have enough space.\nWe went to our population and asked what they wanted and needed as we took on an expansion. They responded saying they needed primary care, more of what we were offering for integrative therapy, care coordination, and mental health services. We launched a capital campaign and opened Chanda Center for Health in Lakewood, Colorado in 2017. We provide a lot of services including massage, acupuncture, chiropractic, care coordination, mental health wellness counseling, biofeedback, physical therapy, yoga classes, and one-on-one aerial yoga. We also offer educational classes, a monthly wheelchair repair clinic, and get various speakers and outside resources to come in. When we hear that people need something, we try to bring in experts and host classes to provide that support.\nThe key term we always use when we talk about our health center is person-centered care. We feel like those with disabilities are too often looked at as their disability. They go to the doctor and someone opens a textbook and says, \u201cYou have SCI, so you need x,y, and z.\u201d At Chanda Center for Health, we\u2019re going to take into consideration who you are, your body, and your background, and then we\u2019re going to adapt our care plan with you to meet your needs. Not everyone with SCI is doing the same thing, just like not every female is doing the same thing. We don\u2019t want to lump people into groups. Person-centered care is really important to us. We also constantly advocate for collaborative care.\nAll of our providers work very closely together here.\nNo one modality is better than the next. Acupuncture isn\u2019t better than chiropractic. Chiropractic isn\u2019t better than a massage. All of our providers work together and share notes. We do quarterly planning meetings where all staff and providers meet together and brainstorm as a group. We get feedback from the participants every quarter as well. We ask what their needs are and involve them as much as possible in their care. It\u2019s a true collaboration.\nWe don\u2019t have primary care yet, but we\u2019re hoping to implement that before the end of the year. That primary care provider will be obligated to work in the exact same way. Their primary care is not going to be more important than the work of any of the other integrative therapists\u2019. They\u2019re going to have to be collaborative and honor, respect, and believe in the therapies we offer here.\nAt the health center, people can access services in multiple ways: apply for financial assistance through the Chanda Plan Foundation, get services covered through the Medicaid SCI Waiver, or private pay.\nEditor\u2019s Note: For class schedule and services offered at Chanda Center for Health, see iamtheplan.org/center-for-health.\nRemember our article on adaptive aerial yoga? Sara Schaffer is now offering physical therapy and one-on-one adaptive aerial yoga sessions at Chanda Center for Health. Email frontdesk@chandacenter.org to schedule a session.\nWhat is Integrative Therapy?\nIntegrative therapy used to be called alternative therapy, but alternative implies it\u2019s not a norm. We don\u2019t want to use that term anymore because we think it should be complementary to Western medicine, rather than an alternative to it. We could argue that integrative therapy is a merger of both Eastern and Western methods. For those with physical disabilities, there are some aspects of Western medicine that are absolutely necessary.\nOur goal is to help people decrease their use of medication and visit the doctor less, but we know we\u2019re always going to have a little bit of reliability on some treatments and certain surgeries. At the same time, we don\u2019t want to rely fully on that and always fall back on those textbook answers. There are ways to integrate other forms of therapy that help people mentally, emotionally, and physically by increasing movement and keeping the body in motion the way it was intended to be. That\u2019s what integrative therapy is for us. Currently, the most popular modalities are massage, acupuncture, chiropractic, adaptive exercise, and yoga, but the definition of integrative therapy could always evolve based on whatever works for our participants.\nHow Can I Help Advocate for Systemic Change?\nRight now, the biggest thing we can do to push for systemic change is to get people who meet the eligibility criteria to get on the SCI waiver and receive services. Strength in numbers is the best way to prove the worthiness of the program. The more people receiving services who have positive outcomes, the higher the chances are that Medicaid will turn the waiver into a permanent benefit.\nWhat if My Town Doesn\u2019t Have Any Integrative Therapy Practitioners?\nContact us! If you\u2019re eligible for financial assistance, you can apply with us, and we will help track down providers that are near you or can come to you. We have care coordinators whose role is to advocate, research, and help people find resources near them. They\u2019ll figure it out with you.\nWhen someone gets injured, it\u2019s overwhelming. There\u2019s so much they don\u2019t know, and the system is complicated. We try to be experts in as much as we can. What we\u2019re not experts in, we put in the legwork and research it. When in doubt, if you are looking for integrative therapy and have a physical disability, contact us. We\u2019ll go through the process with you to find the appropriate program.\nJust get in touch, and we\u2019ll lead you in the right direction.\nEditor\u2019s Note: The Chanda Plan Foundation relies heavily on donations, grants, and fundraising opportunities. If you\u2019d like to make a contribution or participate in a fundraiser, details can be found at iamtheplan.org/donate.\nFollow The Chanda Plan Foundation on social media:\nChanda Plan Foundation",

        "raw_content": "Football Counter-Programming 2018: Conference Champions Week\nAfter an unscheduled and unannounced absence in Weeks 11 and 12, Football Counter-Programming made a triumphant return in Week 13 . . . just in time to witness Ohio State's triumphant return to prominence and relevancy.\nBut that is as much football-specific talk as you are going to get in this post. Because I know what the title of this post is and I know what I'm doing here. I trying to get you to do something other than watch college football on a Saturday. And that is only harder to accomplish in late November and early December when most places are cold, gray, and all you really want to do is sit inside and stay warm, eating snacks and vegging out.\nBut NO! I say NO!\nIn place of (semi-professional) amateur gridiron, let's talk about Harry Potter. Well . . . specifically let's talk about Newt Scamander and the Fantastic Beasts film franchise that he is the titular (if no longer truly the content driver of) movie hero of.\nA few weeks ago I went to see FB2: TCoG and well, I guess it was fine. For a movie that had little to no connection to the charity-based \"textbook\" the title is based upon . . . it was fine. It was much better than Peter Jackson's three Hobbit movies that played a similar game of taking source material and bloating it out into as many movie tickets as it could get away with.\nFantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Gindelwald was a visually pleasing film with some adequate plot elements. And I like the actors by-and-large--with the de rigueur vilification of Johnny Depp implied, you understand? I very much like Jude Law's Dumbledore portrayal and it almost made me forget what a young Pope he is. But . . . the cinematic reveal at the end of the film was viewed by me, in the moment, as a drastic and very concerning up-ending of Potterverse canon. (If you don't know what I'm talking about it is either because you could not care less or because you just haven't seen the movie. Please use your favorite search engine to discover the awful truth for yourself.)\nANDBUTSO . . . I've listened to podcasts and read the Internet since the movie watching and I am confidently holding out hope for a sensible resolution in films 3-5--assuming of course that the public wasn't so turned off by FB2 that there is no financial stomach to even make the remaining films. If that ends up being the case, then I'm sure J.K. Rowling and the WizardingWorld publishing machine will give us hard-copy versions of the screenplays that were never filmed so that we know what might have been.\nBut truly--and this is the real reason that I even decided to write about this topic in the first place--what I WANT out of all of this is a canonical, hard-copy version of Rita Skeeter's The Life and Lies of Albus Dumbledore. It was the tell-all book that shook poor Harry to the core in the wandering parts of Deathly Hallows. It forced the reader to reevaluate what we knew about Albus PWB. And, in no small measure, it is the content spine of FB2 and what we can now assume are the plots of FB3-FB5.\nLet's just have the book, shall we?\nUntil that day comes and we get the books we richly deserve, just remember. It's doesn't matter if your alma mater's special teams coach is a Ravenclaw. If they aren't playing in a conference championship game today you can kiss goodbye their (non Notre Dame) chances of making it into the CFP Final 4.\nHave a fun non-football weekend.\nLabels: Football Counter-Programming, Harry Potter\n2018: A Casual Christmas Card\nFootball Counter-Programming 2018: Conference Cham...",

        "title": "Winds Of Justice - JESUS CAME TO RECOVER SIGHT TO THE BLIND",
        "raw_content": "Home Articles ECONOMIC TEACHINGS OF JESUS JESUS CAME TO RECOVER SIGHT TO THE BLIND\nJESUS CAME TO RECOVER SIGHT TO THE BLIND\nThe book of the prophet Isaiah was handed to him. He opened the book, and found the place where it was written, \"The Spirit of the Lord is on me, Because he has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to heal the brokenhearted, To proclaim release to the captives, Recovering of sight to the blind\u2026\"\nIn his mission statement Jesus announced that he came to preach the gospel to the poor, heal the brokenhearted and proclaim release to the captives. Now he reaches out to the blind, to whom he promises recovery of sight.\nAgain, it trivializes Scripture to claim that Jesus restored sight only to those sufferers who were physically blind, at some time far into the future, in another place, and only to those individuals somehow earning God\u2019s favor. Yes, he did heal the flesh of individual blind persons, but his promise of recovering of sight to the blind goes far beyond that. It reaches into the deepest levels of the human heart to also bring recovery to those suffering from spiritual blindness; to those institutions of society troubled by the blindness of prejudice, racism, sexism, elitism, oppression and so on.\nBlindness is not only being able to \"see\" what one is doing. It has a far deeper effect when it prevents us from perceiving the effects of our actions and behavior. This sort of blindness pervades many prominent institutions of our society, including government, business, the military, and religious entities.\nThe following statement concerning the inability of oppressors to perceive their guilt is a good example of this type of blindness. \" The philosophy of oppression, perfected and refined through civilizations as a true culture of injustice, does not achieve its greatest triumph when its propagandists knowingly inculcate it; rather, the triumph is achieved when this philosophy has become so deeply rooted in the spirits of the oppressors themselves and their ideologues that they are not even aware of their guilt\" (a saying posted without attribution on the wall of the Jubilee Center, Managua, Nicaragua).\nWhat it says in effect is that cultures of injustice have refined their techniques of oppression to the point that not even the oppressors have any awareness of their guilt. This is true institutional blindness. And what of the almost deeper blindness existing when the oppressed do not even know the cause of their oppression, instead blaming themselves or fate for their suffering. Folks, that\u2019s what\u2019s happening in much of the world.\nCan Jesus cure this form of blindness? Yes, provided there is at least some willingness for the sufferers to become aware of their blindness and to seek healing. \"There is none so blind as he who will not see,\" says the old truism. Some do not see because they choose not to. I would include many of the Pharisees and temple authorities of Jesus\u2019 day in this group. Instead of promising healing of their blindness to this group, Jesus instead pronounced damnation because of their stubborn refusal to see even when they had Moses and the prophets as their guides.\nSo not everyone is to be healed of spiritual blindness. Some, like the Pharisees, seem destined to perish in their sins because of their \"hard core\" of resistance to Christ. They chose their own fate. But there are others of us who are blind, not because of open rebellion against God or hatred of everything associated with Christ, but because we have never been led into newness of spiritual life apart from simple tradition and the rules of our denominations.\nSpiritual blindness doesn\u2019t go away by itself. The apostle Paul on the road to Damascus needed someone to anoint him before his blindness disappeared. We today also need someone to \"anoint\" us with the full counsel of God and the ministry of the Holy Spirit. That\u2019s an often-neglected function of the clergy.\nPaul\u2019s letter to the Romans puts it this way: \"For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; for the same Lord is Lord of all, and is rich to all who call on him. For, \u2018Whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved.\u2019 How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? How will they believe in him whom they have not heard? How will they hear without a preacher? And how will they preach unless they are sent?\" (Romans 10:12-15a, WEB).\nWe need to pray for our church leaders so that they may receive the words of God for the flock. In this day, especially, it\u2019s vital that parishioners move beyond spiritual blindness into the vision that only God can provide.",

        "title": "Wise Her Still: Wisdom For Women : What Unforgiveness Does to a Woman",
        "raw_content": "The young lady wasn't wearing a frown nor was she chatty, but her less than friendly demeanor spoke louder than words. When it was almost their time to checkout, the teenage girls began to load their items onto the conveyer belt, but the rebellious young woman stood directly behind the cart. The woman who was obviously the mother began to shuffle through her purse while the two bubbly teenagers unloaded the buggy. They pulled the shopping cart up a little to allow me to unload my items once they'd finished, but the rebellious young woman stood behind them, blocking the conveyer belt. I could tell that she was full of wrath; she was full of debt. She looked in my direction, and then, she began to look around. There was no reason for her to block me from unloading my items, but she was determined to find one. After a few seconds of shuffling through the candy, she picked up a magazine and began to flip through the pages. I didn't bulge, nor was I upset with her. I was studying her behavior because I've come to learn that there is a lot of wisdom to be had in situations like the one I was in, but our own inner conflicts and struggles with pride often make it difficult for us to look for wisdom when we're in the midst of ignorance. Instead, whenever we come in contact with individuals who like to provoke the flesh, we often get in our flesh to respond to them. Doing so robs us of so many golden opportunities to get more wisdom, knowledge and understanding. Think of it this way. Animals in the wild have instinctual behaviors, nonetheless, each individual animal is unpredictable and because of this, Animal Behaviorists often spend months studying certain groups or families of animals to learn what sets them out from the rest. Let's say a man named Toby decided to study a family of lions. He finds a pride and begins to follow them over the next six months. Toby notices that most of the family no longer appears to be threatened by him. The only one who seems to be agitated by his presence is a young lioness he's nicknamed Princess. Every time Toby comes near the pride's hangout, Princess approaches his jeep and tries to chase him away. Trying to escape Princess has cost Toby a lot of time and money. Nevertheless, instead of being angry with Princess, Toby focuses most of his investigation on the feisty young lioness. After all, she's simply being what she is: an animal. Because of Toby's patience and his wise decision to focus more on Princess, Toby gathers a lot of new information about pride hierarchy. Toby's patience eventually earns him many awards and allows him to write many best-selling books. We have to take on the same mentality in life because there are countless opportunities to gather wisdom in this earth, but the average person misses these opportunities because the average person battles with being easily offended.\nAs the young woman flipped through the magazine, I could tell that she wasn't reading any of the articles, nor was she spending time looking at any of the photos, even though she was flipping through the pages slowly. Her eyes danced up and down the pages, but I wasn't bothered by her at all. The woman behind me, on the other hand, seemed to be provoked. After all, the store was already busy and it goes without saying that people want to get in and get out of Walmart as fast as they can. The cashier was almost done ringing up their items and I hadn't had the opportunity to place my items on the conveyer belt. On any other day, I would have likely said, \"Excuse me\" and walked around her to unload my items, but wisdom dictated that I patiently await my turn. After all, the young woman was obviously full of debt and wanted a fight, and it just wasn't worth it.\nPeople who are full of debt are full of unforgiveness. They've been hurt, betrayed, misled, misused and left to die in their misery. They've chosen not to take the path to forgiveness set before them by Jesus Christ. To them, that route is too passive and it's obviously for what they perceive to be \"the weak\", when in truth, it takes immeasurable strength to forgive when everything in you wants to do otherwise. With no wisdom in store, they walk about the earth trusting in the strength of their flesh. To them, everyone who stands within a few feet of them is indebted to them somehow. They place the debt they've held over others onto every familiar and unfamiliar face that dares to cross their paths. Oftentimes, women place debt on other women because they've been hurt by other women. For example, women who've been cheated on multiple times in their lives may go through life never forgiving the women who've slept with the men they once called their boyfriends or husbands. Even after those relationships have ended, they still walk around angry with the women they feel contributed to their broken hearts. Having no (legal) way to collect this debt, they began to place that debt on every woman they come in contact with. We've all seen them. They roll their eyes at complete strangers, and any time they're in a group setting, they may giggle and whisper whenever another woman is within a few yards of them because that woman has crossed into what they feel is their personal space. An unforgiving woman's personal space is much larger than the personal space of a woman walking in love. For example, anytime I'm in a store shopping, I can always feel the love radiating through a happy woman. She may be on a different aisle than the one I'm on, but her presence is undeniable, and whenever we do pass one another, she will look at me and smile before speaking. She'll likely compliment something I'm wearing; for example, she may say, \"I like your hair. Who did it?\" She walks in love because she has forgiven the people who've hurt and betrayed her in the past. She has decided to move forward with her life.\nDebt is the number one reason a lot of women don't find peace; they don't find their wealthy places, and they don't find themselves, and therefore, they cannot be found by their God-appointed husbands. After all, it is easy to believe that the debt we've placed on others is justifiable because we were the ones who suffered through each betrayal and every evil word spoken. It is easy to undermine the trials others have had to go through, especially when we see them come out of those trials unscathed. It is easy to tell ourselves that their fiery trials weren't as bad as our own because they don't look like what they've been through. It is easy to stay in unforgiveness, but it takes prayer and effort to come out of it. It takes strength to overcome the strongman of unforgiveness.\nAs I stood in line behind the rebellious and angry young woman, I took notice of her garments and behaviors. She was masculine and it was clear that she did not have the confidence the other two young women had. She slowly made her way towards the front of the register when she noticed that the cashier was almost done ringing up her family. I hurriedly pulled my cart forward and began to unload it because I knew I could have it fully unloaded by the time the cashier was done. That way, I wouldn't hold up anyone else. As I began to unload my items, my eyes met the eyes of the woman who was standing behind me. I giggled inside as I noticed the expression on her face. She looked at the girl, and then, back at me to convey her disdain for the young woman's behavior. She was what I refer to as a self-appointed debt cancellation specialist, meaning, she'll happily engage with women who are full of debt. She was about the same age as myself, and she appeared to be somewhat calm, nevertheless, I could still see the fight in her.\nSome women are in debt, meaning, they are always trying to compensate for something. They passively walk behind Creditors, thankful for the opportunity to be called their friends, not realizing that the people they are following have become their Creditors and has placed debt on them. They don't realize that everything their \"friend\" has done for them wasn't done out of love; it was her way of placing them in greater debt to herself. Debt Collectors are the most dangerous of them all because they feel indebted to the Creditor, so they'll often fight her battles for her. Creditors are the ones who are full of unforgiveness and they treat life and the living as if they owe them something. They are always angry with someone, gossiping about someone, or involving themselves in the problems of others. They are always trying to collect the debts they feel are owed to them, but every fight, every argument, and every broken relationship only serves to add more debt to their already bankrupt hearts. They don't realize that the enemy has them running in circles, delaying their deliverance, progress, prosperity and all that God has in store for them. It goes without saying that many of these women are in the church, and a large number of them want to be married. Some are even bombarding heaven's phone lines with questions regarding the whereabouts of their husbands, and of course, they keep going to heaven's voice mail. In this voice mail, the Lord lovingly repeats Mark 6:15: But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.\n\"I forgave my ex,\" they all say, all the while, keeping their exes from seeing their children.\n\"I forgave my ex,\" they all say, all the while, being argumentative towards these men every time they call about the welfare of their children.\n\"I forgave my ex,\" they all say, all the while, mistreating and ridiculing the women their exes are romantically involved with.\n\"I forgave the woman my ex cheated on me with,\" they all say, all the while, rolling their eyes at every woman who looks like or reminds them of her.\n\"I forgave myself,\" they all say, all the while, covering their bodies in tattoos, lighting up cigarettes, poisoning their bodies with alcohol, and fornicating every chance they get.\nForgiveness isn't just a nice word that we speak to evoke the blessings of God; it is an action word, and anytime we say we've forgiven someone, what we call forgiveness has to be tried and proven. We may come across the people we've reportedly forgiven and they may still be their unloving, ungodly selves. Forgiving them does not depend on how they treat us; it is a decision to love them despite their present conditions. Now, this does not mean that we have to open our lives to them, but we should love them enough to pray for them even from afar. When the Jews hung Jesus on the cross, He immediately prayed for them and said, \"Father, forgive them for they know not what they do.\" He was interceding on their behalves, even though they were yet still in the midst of their wickedness. At the same time, He interceded for us while we were yet still in the midst of our sins, but it's easy to forget this when we've been hurt, especially when the measure of our hurt surpasses the measure of our knowledge. You see, whenever we run out of knowledge, we tap into the flesh, so anytime someone hurts us and we know how to handle that person, we often find it easy to forgive them. Nevertheless, whenever someone does something to us that we don't know how to handle or they have personalities (or spirits) that we don't know how to handle, we often find it hard to forgive them because they've placed us in situations that we had trouble getting out of. This means that it wasn't so much the person that we were truly angry with. We simply got frustrated because we came to the end of our knowledge, and from there, we tapped into our flesh. For example, in the store while dealing with the provoking spirit that was in the young lady ahead of me, I knew how to handle her. To deal with someone like that, you simply ignore them and focus on whatever it is you've set out to do because people like that want attention, be it negative or positive. They're frustrated with life and they're frustrated with people, so you never avail yourself to be that outlet they need to transfer their hatred into. Instead, the better way to handle them is to ignore their passive aggressive tantrums until they realize how silly they look. In this case, the young woman caught the attention of the people in line as well as the cashier. She ended up looking silly by herself because I was not going to meet her on her level, and of course, I couldn't evangelize her because she wasn't looking for evangelism. She wanted a fight or an argument; she simply wanted to release whatever anger she had stored up inside her. Now, if I hadn't known how to handle the situation, I could have easily tapped into my flesh, walked around her as she flipped through the magazine and began to unload my cart. This would've been my way of communicating with her that I was willing to come to her level, and even though she likely wouldn't have verbally addressed me had I done such a thing, she would have communicated her frustration by remaining still while I walked around her. Basically, we would have engaged in a passive aggressive silent war where there are no winners, only fools. Nevertheless, because I knew how to deal with such a soul, it was easy for me to not be offended and to search for the wisdom in that situation.\nHere are a few truths about women in debt. Of course, these truths can be applied to men too, but let's remember, this blog is for women.\nWhenever a woman hasn't forgiven the people who've hurt her over the course of her life, she will not be a blessing to her husband, but instead, she'll place that debt on him. She will fully expect her husband to \"make her happy\" because she does not have inner peace. Of course, such a task is impossible, and the husband will find himself going to great lengths to pay off a debt he did not make and cannot afford. This means that his wife would not be a help meet for him, but instead, would be a thorn in his side.\nWhenever a woman hasn't forgiven the people who've hurt her, she has shut herself off from hearing from God, and therefore, she will be led by her flesh. This means her wisdom will be limited to only that of which she's learned before she entered unforgiveness and whatever information others have told her. I met a woman like this and her entire ministry was based on what others told her and not what the Holy Spirit taught her. I call this a parakeet ministry.\nWhenever a woman hasn't forgiven the people who've hurt her, she will not love, forgive and respect the creature that she is. It'll be easy for her to submit the members of her body to fornication or poison her body with drugs and alcohol.\nWhenever a woman hasn't forgiven the people who've hurt her, she will not be mentally available to protect her children the way they need to be protected. She will also impart that hatred to her children because she will come to believe that her mindset is a shield that has protected her from future, past and present harm, and therefore, she will hand that mindset to her children. If any of her children refuse to accept her hatred, she may purposely do things to hurt them in her attempts to break them.\nWhenever a woman hasn't forgiven the people who've hurt her, she won't have a sound mind. What this means is she will spend too much time meditating on the issues of yesterday and yesteryear that it'll be hard for her to be of any good benefit today. She will become her own version of a private investigator, and she will add events and conversations together in her attempts to flush out any secrets she feels her loved ones are keeping from her. It'll be hard to enjoy a peaceful day with her because she will spend too much time talking about the things of the past.\nAn unforgiving woman is not a blessing to be had because she has not yet learned the value of forgiveness. She has not yet learned that unforgiveness affects everyone in her life. She will attempt to place steering wheels on everyone and every thing in her life because she feels the need to control everyone and every thing in her life, and anytime she feels she's losing control, she will overreact.\nBut what if you're that unforgiving woman? What can you do to release others from debt, and at the same time, get back in rightstanding with God? First and foremost, please remember that forgiveness isn't something that comes over us just because we've lifted our hands in worship and said we wanted it. Forgiveness is a choice, but it involves peeling back every layer of hurt that we've gone through. Forgiveness starts off as a decision, and then, it requires an action plan. For example, one of the things we must do is openly confess our sins and our true feelings; that way, we can be free of them. \"Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much\" (James 5:16).\nI didn't really know the power of confession until I opened all the way up to God and began to tell Him things I was ashamed to tell Him. I began to confess to my friends the things I'd struggled with, and each time, I was almost immediately healed. \"And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death\" (Revelation 12:11).\nHonestly, being truthful with myself was the first step and the hardest one to take because it's so easy to walk in false humility; after all, false humility only requires that we believe our own lies and keep a straight face when we're faced with the truth. Walking in love, however, requires action and it causes us to come outside of ourselves to better understand the reasons people do what they do.\nThe next thing you ought to do is start praying for (not against) the person or people who've hurt you. Now, this is one of the greatest tests of love, especially if you truly believe that God hears and answers your prayers. Asking God to forgive, deliver and bless someone who's hurt you is no easy task when pride and unforgiveness are on the scene, nevertheless, God loves to see us behaving like Jesus. You see, the devil will always tell you that you are rewarding them for hurting you, but the truth is...Satan has soldiers who have blindly joined his military and he wants to keep them enlisted. Walking in love towards them oftentimes opens their eyes and helps them to get free of Satan's strongholds and he doesn't want this. He was counting on you to provoke them or hurt them because of their behaviors toward you, so when you start praying for them instead, you are in the same, trying to recruit them for the army of the Lord. This means you cause his plans to backfire.\nFinally, you need to practice walking in love until loving your enemies becomes a lifestyle, mindset and a habit. Honestly, it's not as hard as it appears to be. The hardest part is getting past yourself so that you can embrace the love of God and extend it to others. Once you get past self and overcome the spirit of pride, you'll find that walking in love is actually more rewarding than walking in unforgiveness. For example, when I walked out of Walmart, I felt like I'd passed a test. I hadn't given the girl any dirty looks, nor had I made any snide remarks. As a matter of fact, my sunny disposition hadn't changed a bit. I was filled with joy when I got in line, and when I was done checking out, my joy was still full. I wasn't mad at the girl, but instead, I made a mental note to pray for her. Walking in love is nothing but making a decision to walk against the grain of your understanding. It means that even though your flesh is directing you to go in one direction and pride is raging up against you like strong gusts of wind, you've decided to go against how you feel and do what appears to be a difficult task. After a while, walking in love becomes second nature. Now, that's not to say that you won't have those times when your flesh appears to be greater than your convictions. What it does mean is that when those times do come, you'll know that you've come to the end of your knowledge, and this means you simply need more knowledge. This means that you'll know not to call heaven and leave the Lord voicemails asking for a husband, a house, or a car. Instead, you'll call heaven and ask the Lord for more patience, wisdom, knowledge and understanding because you'll come to know that everything you want is tied up to those things. Don't let unforgiveness imprison and rob you another day. Repent today, release yourself from prison, and start the journey back to you. The journey won't always be a fun journey, but it is a necessary one. The hardest parts of this journey is coming into territories and mindsets that are new to you, and being placed amongst people who aren't like the people you normally hang around. This simply means that God is enlarging your territory, but to do this, He had to take you out of your comfort zone. While you are on this journey, you have a unique opportunity to study and document the mindsets you come across because the journey you're on is one that many will take. It is always wise to create road maps for others and publish them as guides to help those who will eventually take the same journey that you're on.\nIf any of the following definitions below describes you, be sure to talk to the Lord and hand over every mindset that's hindering your life:\nCreditor: An individual who's extended opportunities to others, only to get hurt in return, and now, you walk around waiting on those people to get what's due to them. Nevertheless, in the mean time, you keep your guards up and only enter friendships and situations where you feel you can be in control; after all, you don't trust the leadership of another human being.\nDebt Collector: An individual whose comfort zone is found in relationships where you are second, third, fourth or fifth in command. You don't mind following someone who appears to be intelligent, confident, bold, and knows where they're going. Additionally, you depend on that person (Creditor) for validation and/or financial help, and because the Creditor has helped you out of many struggles, you would do almost anything for that person. Their enemies are your enemies.\nDebt Cancellation Specialist: You try not to bother anyone, but if someone oversteps their boundaries with you, you're going to teach them a much needed lesson. By the time you're done with them, they'll either know that you don't owe them anything, or you've just given them what's been overdue to them.\nPamela Uzziel July 6, 2015 at 1:29 AM\nYou have written a road map to healing and wholeness. We can live a life of abundance if we are truth to ourselves. I know this blog came from Heaven so that we can share it with every women in the world.\nI definitely agree. Ms. Tiffany keep being a blessing to every woman who has the heart to receive the truth and wants to be honest with themselves. God Bless you. . Peace & Blessings\nOUCH...is all I can say! Thanks for explaining unforgiveness. I will be praying for patience,wisdom, knowledge & understanding & I will forgive those that have hurt me! You're such a blessing...THANK YOU!\nDeliver me Lord from the spirit of unforgiveness",

        "title": "Social Change Needs the Arts: Funding Cuts in Australia \u00bb Witada",
        "raw_content": "WITADA\u2019s Weekly Top 10 \u2013 6 June 2015 \u00bb\nRecent cuts to arts funding in Australia raise questions about the role of the arts in our society. Going back to ancient times the arts have been an important part of our social fabric. The UK Arts Council released an extensive report in 2014 \u201cThe Value of Arts and Culture to People and Society\u201d which outlines a clear evidence base for a social system richly steeped in all forms of artistic expression \u2013 and the benefits to our economy, our health and wellbeing, our society generally and our education systems.\nRon Eyerman Director of the Centre for Cultural Sociology at Yale University states: \u201cMusic, song, poetry and works of visual representation are important in creating and communicating a collective narrative, articulating who we are, where we come from, what we stand for and what we are against.\u201d And Katharine Brisbane, from Currency House, talks about \u201cthe special qualities [of the arts] that are intrinsic to a forward-looking creative society\u201d.\nHowever it is the social change potential in the arts that is of most interest here \u2013 and now of great concern given the recent cuts to funding. There is a long history of the arts in social change movements and I suspect that this is because artistic expression is so powerful \u2013 and also so accessible. We don\u2019t have to be rich to be an artist of any sort \u2013 visual, musical, performance, etc \u2013 in fact, most artists would suggest that one of the defining features of being an artist is definitely not being rich!!\nEyerman again \u2013 \u201cAdorno famously wrote that all art is an uncommitted crime. What he meant was that as an exemplar of free subjective expression art challenges the status quo by its very nature. To the extent this is true all art is political.\u201d\nThe role of music in social change movements is quite obvious \u2013 peace songs, protest songs, songs that express the views of those who feel dispossessed \u2013 folk, reggae, rap, blues, etc. And wall art or graffiti art has been a means of expression for centuries, especially for those expressing discontent and protest. Similarly performance art, whether that be in the form of plays, poetry, dance or other artistic expression has been an integral force in social change over time.\nWikipedia calls it social justice art which \u201cencompasses a wide range of visual and performing art that aims to raise critical consciousness, build community, and motivate individuals to promote social change\u201d and that this occurs through allowing \u201cpeople to develop agency to interrupt and alter oppressive systemic patterns or individual behaviours\u201d.\nSo in true artistic form, dancers recently took to the streets in Sydney\u2019s Hyde Park (and other areas throughout Australia) to protest these cuts. If you are unaware of how bad this situation is, here are the bare bones of the Government\u2019s recent budget decisions regarding the arts in Australia \u2013 more than $100m has been cut from the top arts funding body, the Australia Council. This money is now going to the Ministry for the Arts \u2013 a government run department that will place decision making with the Minister rather than with those who are both independent and informed about the arts.\nIt is this loss of independence and expertise in decision making that is such a great concern for those who work in this industry. And rightly so. \u201cWith these reallocations away from an independent arts council and into Brandis\u2019 own ministry, this government is betraying an ongoing habit of interference and favouritism when it comes to arts funding.\u201d (Van Badham, The Guardian, 13.5.2015)\n\u201cTake the collective memory from our museums; remove the bands from our schools and choirs from our communities; lose the empathetic plays and dance from our theatres or the books from our libraries; expunge our festivals, literature and painting, and you\u2019re left with a society bereft of a national conversation \u2026 about its identity or anything else.\u201d (Peter Bazalgette, Chair, Arts Council England.)\nIf you feel inspired to explore more about social justice and the arts here are some great songs, pics and performance pieces to fire up your enthusiasm for change! There is also an online petition that we can all sign to register our protest.\nThe Social Justice Top 40\nAmnesty International 10 songs for social change\nLet\u2019s keep lobbying to ensure the arts remains with the people and to foster creative expression in all.",

A woman with a college degree when very few women achieved that goal, she taught in three states before coming to Memphis where she dove headline into civic work. She campaigned for water fluoridation, was president of the YWCA board of directors in 1950 and again in 1970, and a state and local officer of Church Women United.\nMertie led the successful effort in 1954 to start a public library in Raleigh. In 1972 she started a YWCA center at Raleigh Presbyterian Church, where she serves as an elder. She was a working board member for the Transitional Center for Women from 1973 until it closed. The Center helped women start a new life after incarceration.\nToday Mertie Buckman is 85 and still diving headlong into issues and civic work that matter.\nShe is an honorary trustee at Rhodes College, a trustee at Christian Brothers College and on the advisor\u2019s council at St. Mary\u2019s Episcopal School. She is membership chair for Church Women United and a member of the YWCA Advisory Board. In addition to her obvious leadership qualities, her philanthropic contributions reach beyond the scope of her immediate community and probably never will be completely known.\nMertie has preserved and steadfastly stood by her principles. She has never wavered from her ideals and continues to strive for her dream of a better, fairer world for us all.\nIn 1923 Mertie was depicted in a marble sculpture call \u201cEssence of Mertie\u201d at Buckman Hall at Christian Brothers University, a rare honor for a Memphis woman.\nPrevious PostPrevious Althea Price\nNext PostNext Ellen Correll",

It gives a good summary of Jack Johnson's life as well.\nIn the later years of his life, Johnson found happiness with his third wife, Irene Pineau Johnson, and he remained in the limelight\u2014watching the rise of future boxing champions like Max Schmeling and Joe Louis (whose stance Johnson said was all wrong) and participating in charity boxing \u201cmatches.\u201d He died in a car accident in 1946 at the age of 68. At Johnson\u2019s funeral, his widow, when asked what is was that she had loved about her husband, replied, \u201c\u2026his courage. He faced the world unafraid. There wasn\u2019t anybody or anything he feared.\u201d\nWard\u2019s biography is an incredibly dense book; every chapter is rich with the details of Johnson\u2019s life and, seemingly, all of his boxing matches. Uppercuts, hooks, and clinches are recreated for the reader from news stories, film reels, and Jack Johnson\u2019s own written accounts.\nThis book will entertain passionate fans of pugilism, as well as appeal to those interested in American social or journalistic history. Wards includes both copious footnotes and a lengthy bibliography. An extensive index provides quick access to the multitude of boxers, managers, promoters, and public figures documented in the book.",

Also features an online shop selling military books, and regimental souvenirs as well as genealogy search to find military ancestors.\nWe portray the history of our famous regiments, The Gloucestershire Regiment (The Glorious Glosters), their antecedents The 28th & 61st Regiments of Foot & The Royal Gloucestershire Hussars.\nTraditionally both have recruited from the County and the surrounding areas including Cheltenham, Cirencester, Stroud, Tewkesbury, The Forest of Dean and from Bristol. Indeed, there are few local families who over the generations have not been associated with either of these regiments.\nThe Museum does not seek to glorify war. It does, however, show how both regiments have faced up to the challenges and strains that soldiering around the world, both in peace and war can bring.

        "title": "Charles Dickens: The First Great Travel Writer? - World Hum",
        "raw_content": "Charles Dickens: The First Great Travel Writer?\nTravel Books: Frank Bures digs into the legendary author's travel writing and finds some surprises\nBack when the world wasn\u2019t so known, travel writing wasn\u2019t so much about being entertaining, or about letting the writer\u2019s persona run wild. The point was to describe the world rather than to dance upon its stage. The purpose was to transport people to another part of the world in an edifiying, Victorian kind of way. It was something to make readers who couldn\u2019t see the world become more worldly. It was more education than entertainment or art.\nThat\u2019s certainly the type of writing I expected when I opened this new compilation of Charles Dickens\u2019 travel writing, which dates from the mid-1800s. But to my surprise, I found something else\u2014something that makes me think Charles Dickens may have been the first great modern travel writer.\nSure, there were a few long, dry descriptive passages. In other parts, though, it was anything but the quasi-anthropological reportage of Marco Polo or Ibn Battuta. There was warmth and dialogue and humor. Suddenly I found myself chuckling along with the author as he sailed on a steamer across the Atlantic, or rode the rails into Paris, or traveled around Italy, or simply observed the chicanery of London\u2019s cab drivers, many of whom would be shipped off to Australia. It felt real. It felt like life. The people spoke and were flawed, and I could feel the paradoxes in their lives.\nThis was not just Dickens traveling and reporting back to civilization. This was Dickens bringing us along as he and the people around him felt their way through the world. For example, when he traveled by ship from England to America, he noticed \u201ca mysterious, runaway kind of couple,\u201d of whom the gentleman \u201ccarried more guns with him than Robinson Crusoe.\u201d\n\u201cI remember,\u201d Dickens writes, \u201cthat he tried hot roast pig and bottled ale as a cure for seasickness; and that he took these remedies (usually in bed) day after day, with astonishing perseverance. I may add, for the information of the curious, that they decidedly failed.\u201d\nThese droll passages make Dickens\u2019 travel writing feel lively and modern. He is not merely talking about places. He is bending his ear for the absurd. He is reflecting on beauty and aging. He is turning his eye to the dynamics between people.\n\u201cAnd now,\u201d he writes as his train rolls farther into France, \u201cI find that all the French people on board begin to grow, and all the English people begin to shrink. The French are nearing home, and shaking off a disadvantage, whereas we are shaking it on.\u201d\nIt\u2019s a small sketch of a feeling that remains as true now as it was then. This layering of imagination on reality make his tales feel rich and real. In reading this book, I was reminded of something I\u2019d forgotten I knew.\nYears ago, when I first started writing, I thought I wanted to be a nature writer. I liked nature. I liked writing. And it was in vogue. It seemed perfect.\nThen I realized that nature writing was kind of ... boring. If I had to keep reading landscape descriptions, never mind write them, I was going to have to shove hot needles under my fingernails to stay awake.\nBut I did notice that my interest was piqued whenever there were people on the page: Edward Abbey\u2019s lively dealing with the Indians in Havasu; Terry Tempest Williams\u2019 recounting of her mother\u2019s battle with cancer; Barry Lopez\u2019s interludes with ranchers and hunters.\nIt seems remedial now, and it is, but it\u2019s something Dickens seemed to realize long ago: Travel is not that interesting. People are. Stories come alive only when there are people in them. Travel and nature writing both purport to be about physical things. But they are really about us, and to the extent that they aren\u2019t, they are simply bad, or boring, writing.\nThis slim selection of Dickens\u2019 travel writing is anything but that. In it, he is much more concerned about the people who he meets on his way than with the places themselves. And that, to me, is what makes any travel writing worth reading.\n\u201cThe more man knows of man,\u201d Dickens writes, \u201cthe better for the common brotherhood among men.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "How to Divide Chapters\n\"Chapter 61\" by Craig Sunter, July 18, 2014. No changes made. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nd/2.0/legalcode\n\u200bWhile I am talking about chapters, it might pay to talk about how we divide chapters up. There is no hard and fast rule about this, and I certainly don\u2019t have a framework that I follow all the time. For what it\u2019s worth, here\u2019s what I do.\nEnd on a cliff hanger. This is probably my main criteria when working out where to end a chapter. I find a place where it\u2019s hooking or interesting, and then I finish the scene on that note. I try not to cut the scene into two pieces, so that I have two random paragraphs hanging on into the start of the next chapter \u2013 but sometimes this is worth doing. Instead, I make sure the scene itself finishes in a hooking place.\nPick a length. Nobody wants to read a chapter fifty pages long unless it is Harry Potter or Eragon. I typically aim for fifteen A4 pages double spaced on the computer. Then I try to end the chapter. Chapters that ramble on and on are just painful.\nPick a point. It\u2019s always helpful to think about what you want this particular chapter to add the plot. Does it add an action scene that moves the plot along? Does it add information? I normally finish the chapter with that scene and make sure the rest of the chapter sort of builds toward it.\nAnd I do it all in retrospect. This is going to sound odd, but I never write chapter by chapter. I write an entire novel without any chapter breaks at all. Then I go back and put chapter headings in. In retrospect, I force meaning onto the chaos of my work and shape each segment of the novel. It\u2019s too much for me to focus on to do it at the same time as writing the book.\nThis is not to say this is the only way of dividing chapters. It\u2019s simply one author\u2019s perspective on a rather mysterious and shadowy element of writing a novel.",

Lawmakers on Capitol Hill are expected to decide whether to ban torture against all prisoners held by the United States, to merely ban torture for some of those prisoners, or to reject outright any attempt to legislate a new ban on torture. The White House and the CIA are lobbying to exempt detainees held by the CIA from an amendment \u00e2\u20ac\u201c sponsored by John McCain and endorsed by nearly all senators \u00e2\u20ac\u201c that would ban \"cruel, inhuman, and degrading\" treatment for all detainees held by the United States.\nThe context for the White House position is key. After the publication of the Abu Ghraib photos in 2004, the administration released a raft of documents claiming these documents showed that there was no policy allowing the abuse of prisoners. It was surreal; the documents showed just the opposite. It was as though the White House thought we couldn't read.\nMost striking was a memorandum of Feb. 7, 2002, signed by President George W. Bush, on the treatment of al-Qaeda and Taliban detainees. That memorandum records the president's unilateral determination that the Geneva Convention on prisoners of war \"does not apply to either al-Qaeda or Taliban detainees.\" This decision is of dubious validity because there is no provision in the Geneva conventions that would countenance a unilateral decision to exempt prisoners from Geneva protections.\nI will spare you most of the torturous language offered by the president's lawyers. Suffice it to say that paragraph 3 of his Feb. 7 memorandum contains a gaping loophole that, in effect, authorizes torture:\n\"As a matter of policy, the United States Armed Forces shall continue to treat detainees humanely and, to the extent appropriate and consistent with military necessity, in a manner consistent with the principles of Geneva.\" (emphasis added)\nHow Did We Stoop so Low?\nPresident Bush and Vice President Cheney set the tone. According to counterterrorism chief Richard Clarke, it began on the evening of 9/11. Immediately after the president's 8:30 p.m. TV address to the nation, he met with Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld and Clarke in a bunker under the East Wing of the White House. In his book, Against All Enemies, Clarke describes the president as \"confident, determined, and forceful\":\n\"I want you all to understand that we are at war \u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 any barriers in your way, they're gone. Any money you need, you have it. \u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 I don't care what the international lawyers say, we are going to kick some ass.\"\nAt a joint hearing of the House and Senate intelligence committees on Sept. 26, 2002, Cofer Black, then head of the Counterterrorism Center at the CIA, emphasized the need for \"operational flexibility,\" adding that intelligence operatives cannot be held to the \"old\" standards. Addressing torture, Black said:\n\"This is a highly classified area, but I have to say that all you need to know: There was a before-9/11 and an after-9/11. After 9/11 the gloves came off.\"\nYesterday, the Washington Post delivered fresh evidence that, within days of 9/11, Bush and Cheney told then-CIA director George Tenet to set CIA interrogators free from the customary restrictions. In her article yesterday on the mini-gulag system of secret CIA-operated prisons overseas, Post reporter Dana Priest reported that on Sept. 17, 2001, Bush signed a secret \"finding\" giving the CIA broad authorization to disrupt terrorist activity, including permission to kill, capture, and detain a-Qaeda members anywhere in the world.\nAuthorization for \"rendering\" detainees to other countries for interrogation, and the establishment of secret prisons abroad, were probably subsumed under such a broad presidential \"finding.\" Still, one can assume that Tenet and, indeed, the president himself would seek reassurance that they would be legally protected from prosecution in the future. And this would account for the flurry of lawyerly activity in early 2002.\nWhy were then-White House counsel Alberto Gonzalez and David Addington, then counsel to Vice President Cheney (and recently appointed to replace I. Lewis Libby as chief of staff), and their counterpart attorneys at Justice and Defense at such pains to square the circle to make torture \"legal?\" Addington reportedly took the lead in drafting the famous memorandum sent by Gonzales to the president on Jan. 25, 2002, which described as \"quaint\" and \"obsolete\" some of the Geneva provisions, and reassured the president that there was \"a reasonable basis in law\" that \u00e2\u20ac\u201c if he exempted Taliban and al-Qaeda detainees from Geneva protections \u00e2\u20ac\u201c he could still avoid possible future prosecution for war crimes. And so, Bush signed the Feb. 7 memorandum, and Tenet's hired thugs could feel more at ease employing so-called \"Enhanced Interrogation Techniques\" \u00e2\u20ac\u201c including \"water-boarding,\" during which a detainee is repeatedly brought to the point of drowning.\nIn her report, Priest made it clear that only the chair and ranking members of the House and Senate intelligence committees were briefed on the secret prisons, and this is probably what happened with respect to other quasi-legal activities as well. But there is a problem. Members of Congress, however much they may enjoy being privy to real secrets and as prone as many are to give intelligence activities a wink and a nod, cannot make illegal activities legal. And that's the rub.\nEnter the Straight Man\nEarlier this month, Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.), who knows torture up close and personal, was joined by 89 other senators in voting for legislation that makes unlawful \"cruel, inhuman, or degrading treatment or punishment of persons under custody or control of the United States government.\" The McCain initiative took the form of an amendment to this year's $440-billion defense authorization bill, which includes about $50 billion needed for operations in Iraq.\nIt will come as no surprise that Cheney is leading the fight against the amendment. It is an unseemly spectacle. Here we have a parvenu regarding things military \u00e2\u20ac\u201c with multiple draft deferments to escape the war in Vietnam \u00e2\u20ac\u201c importuning the highly decorated officer and torture survivor McCain to allow torture to continue in Iraq and elsewhere. No matter. Cheney descended on McCain and other senators last July and tried to twist their arms to put the amendment aside. Cheney was rebuffed, as he apparently was once again last week, when he and CIA chief Porter Goss made another attempt to dissuade McCain.\nA few CIA professionals were angry enough to protest, but were assured by Goss' Office of Congressional Affairs that Goss is on record as forbidding the use of torture by CIA officers. This disingenuous reply came even as Goss joined Cheney in lobbying on the Hill to modify the McCain amendment so there would be no legal problems for CIA personnel engaging in torture \u00e2\u20ac\u201c or for the CIA director who condoned it.\nYesterday, the president's own United Methodist Church's Board of Church and Society, in an almost unanimous vote, protested against the \"unjust war in Iraq\" and appealed for the return of our troops. The Board also issued a strong statement against torture, urging Congress to create an independent, bipartisan commission to investigate detention and interrogation practices at Guantanamo, Iraq, and Afghanistan. The Methodist bishops may issue a similarly strong statement next week.\nUntil now, the lukewarm mainstream churches have not been able to find their voice \u00e2\u20ac\u201c a throwback to the unconscionably passive stance adopted by the Catholic and Lutheran churches that were co-opted by Hitler in the 1930s. Let us hope that other churches start paying attention to what is going on and follow the good example of the Methodists. Otherwise, our government's view will prevail. As described by one former CIA lawyer that is \"the law of the jungle. And right now we happen to be the strongest animal.\"\nHouse and Senate conferees are to meet this week to reconcile the two versions of the defense bill. The fate of the McCain amendment, which is included only in the Senate bill, hangs in the balance. Three of the nine Republican senators who voted against the amendment are on the Senate/House conference committee. What emerges will be a moral barometer. It will be interesting to see if the barometer keeps falling.\nCongress doesn't have any moral moorings to slip from, everyone knows that. I mean, they can give themselves pay raises for Christ's sake.",

        "raw_content": "Home iPad Porn Ipad Porn: Leading In the Most Popular Porn Website\nPorn business and websites are largely popular and continue to grow due to their large fun base. Even though some people consider watching porn normal, it isn\u2019t something that should be done in public since others may frown upon it. This creates the need for private viewing gadgets, which are usually home computers or mobile phones. Phones are the most preferred choice to use when watching pornographic material since they offer more security and efficiency. The fact that they can are very portable and can easily be carried around is an added advantage, so is the fact that you can easily connect them to the internet even if it\u2019s by buying mobile data bundles.\nSome mobile manufacturers and service providers create their products with the aim of prohibiting people from watching porn by adding features that hinder access to such sites but that isn\u2019t always successful. That is the case with iPad, whose founder wanted to prohibit the devices from going to porn site, but whose users have found a way with the help of the safari browser. Reports have shown that this browser that\u2019s available for both iphone and iPad users is used more widely than all the others, including ones used in a wide variety of electronic devices like Google Chrome. This usage is based entirely on the porn websites, especially those that offer free porn like pornhub, which gets up to 387 million users on a daily basis. Out of all these visitors, iPad claims the largest percentage of up to 73%, according to the biggest site pornhub through their spokesperson, with chrome following with only 13.6%. Other browsers frequent on the site include android browser embedded as part of Google\u2019s software with 7.8%, silk browser from Amazon\u2019s kindle fire with 4.8%, and playbook on blackberry devices with 0.69%\nThe large margin between safari browser and others, especially Google chrome, on the site shows that iPad porn is much more popular than all the other devices. Although most people may be surprised by the revelation of the results of this study, others may not find it surprising. These result could be attributed to the fact that most people prefer apple\u2019s devices especially iPad, as deducted from another study done by a well-known research firm 3 years ago. It found that in the United States and the United Kingdom iPad had the majority shares of tablet users with a percentage of 54.4% and 59% respectively. IPad features could also be a contributing factor to why most people prefer them. A wide screen and the ability to provide hotspot whenever there\u2019s none are some of these features. Others may include easy website navigation and customizable databases. Whatever the reasons behind its popularity are, it seems like it will only continue to grow.\nIt seems like iPad isn\u2019t the only widely used device on pornhub since iPhone also has a good number of viewers visiting the site. The safari browser on iPhone also garnered the largest percentage of 38.2%, beating android browser, which got 29.4%. Other smart phone browsers like chrome and internet explorer also have users visiting the site with the former getting 18% and the latter having only 2.4%. The browser with the least number of users on the site was opera mini that had 2.3% visitors. These results are also attributed to iPhone having the majority users worldwide. Pornhub also conducted a survey on the number of desktop browsers still visiting their site and found that chrome was leading with 44.4%. Others included internet explorer with 23.2% and Firefox with 20.1%. Safari browser also featured in this survey again, within 7% of pornhub\u2019s visitors using it followed by opera browser with 2.6%. Both the smart phone and desktop browser studies were a reflection of the studies conducted by emarket in 2013 when they found that the gadgets using the leading browsers in pornhub\u2019s survey were the most widely used.\nSafari browser together with iPad and iPhone continue to lead in the digital market, not just in watching porn but also in other areas as well, because they have amazing features that make people love them. With every new version of these devices and software that is released, their performance and design keeps getting better, attracting more users. It\u2019s hard to tell if iPad porn will continue to take the lead in future, but it seems like iPad and iPhone, together with their safari browser will continue to be favorites as time goes on.\nTagsMost Popular Porn Website",

        "raw_content": "Home Sex Education Porn and Sex Education\nCan porn ever be a substitute, or, at least a supplement to modern day sexual education being imparted to kids at school? Given the contemptuous regard in which porn is generally held, in spite of its viewership, we can safely assume that the answer would categorically in the negative from parents, schools and curriculum developers alike.\nHowever, the fact is that the modern state of sexual education is in a state of disarray. Several studies on the subject has demonstrated how sexual education, as it is being taught in schools today, is woefully outdated. And while there are several issues that should concern us about the porn industry as it exists today, it is far from the evil it is routinely and erroneously portrayed to be.\nIn particular, there should be no illusions about the exploitative nature of the porn industry as well as the unreal depiction of sex. On the other hand, there are so many blind spots in current sex education that there are legitimate reasons to be thankful to the porn industry.\nIs sex education adequate?\nThe logical question is whether sex education taught today is adequate, and, if not, why not? Bluntly speaking, the answer is no for the simple reason that it is based on an archaic notions of abstinence. In other words, the sex education curriculum obsessively focuses on the don\u2019ts, and rarely emphasizes the joys of a healthy sexual life. However, the fact is that teenagers are curious by nature, and, at their age, they are also driven by hormones. This clearly is a recipe for disaster as the sex education simply does not prepare them, emotionally and psychologically, about what it takes to enjoy a sexual relationship.\nYet another major gap in our sex education curriculum pertains to the strange treatment of female sexuality. In particular, there appears to be an unspoken diktat against any discussion of female capacity and need for sexual pleasure. Starting from kindergarten, where the penis is identified in naming of body parts but the vagina is omitted, the trend continues its way up in the sex education curriculum.\nFor example, while male sexuality is often described with explicit references to penis, erections, ejaculation, and hormonal drives, there is a no such equivalence when it comes to women. For women, the references start and end with diagrams of internal organs such as uterus, fallopian tube, and the ovary. It\u2019s rare to see sex education reference clitoris and the biological capacity of women to enjoy sex as much as men. Given such a puritanical and outdated view of sex, it would be hard to fault male students if they think that women aren\u2019t meant to enjoy sex or that their pleasure in only incidental and subservient to their own.\nCan porn fill in the gap?\nAs mentioned above, the porn industry as it exists today has many ills. Indeed, porn can introduce an unhealthy and unreal set of expectations about the nature of sexual relationships. However, there is no denying that porn acts as an outlet where teens pick up all the knowledge that modern sex education wouldn\u2019t provide them, or, is incapable of providing them.\nGiven this gap between the knowledge imparted and the actual sexual life of teenagers, there is no doubt that a responsible sex ed curriculum is the need of the hour, where porn can be used in a constructive fashion.",

        "title": "Al Larsen",
        "raw_content": "of Aberdeen, Idaho\nThis is just a brief glimpse of Al Larsen of Aberdeen, Idaho written by one of his daughters, Di Lyn Larsen-Hill of La Grande, Oregon. Al died July 2, 2001 after a long and adventurous life.\nOn the exterior Al may have appeared a straightforward, simple man, but in reality, he was one of the most complex and interesting men I have ever known. His life was a tribute to the morals and standards that he held so dearly.\nHe was born Feb. 16, 1917 in Aberdeen, one of six children born to Julius and Grace Claypool Larsen. His siblings were Dorothy, Evelyn, Mildred, Delbert and Roy. The Larsens homesteaded on a place just northwest of town where Julius raised grain and sugar beets. That original home was hauled into town to its new location on East Fifth Street in 1910. The old house has since been torn down.\nWhen Al was six years old, his father died of cancer and Grace took in washing to keep the family going. The children found work at early ages. Al went to work picking spuds and hoeing beets at age six. At one point, he lived with the Abercrombie family while he worked on their place. Then in 1924 Grace died, leaving the six young Larsens to fend for themselves.\nIn 1936 Al landed a job with Guy Smith who owned the Aberdeen Conoco station, setting the stage for a career that spanned many decades. On New Year\u2019s Eve 1936 Al met the girl of his dreams \u2013 Ellen Beth Barnes \u2013 at a dance in American Falls. They were married on March 13, 1938, and spent the next 56 years raising their family \u2013 all 11 of them. Al, a hardworking man with a deeply ingrained work ethic, always found time for his children. Family was the single most important thing in his life, the reason behind every decision he ever made.\nOver the next three years Al worked for Lee Corbridge at his service station in American Falls, followed by a year with Ford Roberts. Then Al and his younger brother, Roy, decided to hitchhike to Illinois to take jobs at a foundry where they made tools. Ellen Beth and their two young boys, Dallas and Randy, took a train back in 1940 to join them, but the young couple pined for their native Idaho. When a telegram and a job offer came from his old boss, Ford Roberts, the Larsens immediately headed back west.\nIn 1942 Al moved his growing family back into his birthplace and kept adding on new sections as the babies kept arriving.\nIn 1945 Al and his father-in-law, Walter Barnes, build the Conoco station located across the street from the old Star Theatre and Sweet Shoppe. Al worked that place for the next 20 years, and in 1965 moved over to run the Sinclair Station (known as Al\u2019s Freeway) on Main Street. He retired in 1983.\nThroughout his many years in the service station business, Al managed to weave in his love of trees and plants. In the early years he helped the local Boy Scouts by selling Christmas trees for them. When the Scouts discontinued their program, Al kept up the tradition. He took great pride in displaying the pine-scented beauties in holiday fashion, with strings of colored lights dancing overhead.\nHis customers trusted him, and Al knew no strangers. Mrs. Sam Nealey, a long-time customer and friend, said, \u201cWe have always enjoyed doing business at Al\u2019s. He was interested not only in taking care of the gas and oil business, but he took a personal interest in people, and I depended on him for that advice more than anyone else in town.\u201d\nHe and Ellen Beth opened their nursery plant business many years, hauling flats of bedding plans and shrubs from Idaho Falls and Pocatello. Al quickly outgrew his first small greenhouse, and built a larger one to accommodate his thriving business. His own yard was always a beautiful display of his wares and talents.\nAn empty lot adjacent to the Sinclair station offered Al a new challenge. He obtained permission from the owners, Gloy and Cliff Wride, and soon the area was bursting with brightly colored flowers, green grass and a park-like appearance. Back in 1983 Mrs. Wride was quoted as saying of Al\u2019s little park, \u201cIt has been such a bright spot in our town, as everybody knows. Al has taken such pride in this. He has a little of the eye of the artist, the way he has arranged all the flowers there. He\u2019s such a neat man. Everything he does is neat.\u201d\nAl\u2019s green thumb and knack for landscaping benefited all of his customers and residents of the area.\nIn 1948 Al and six Aberdeen fellows organized the Booths and Saddle Club, a riding club that at its peak, had a roster of 45 members. The original group worked hard to turn the old Labor Camp on Beach Road into a posse ground, using donated wood and hundreds of hours of volunteer labor. They practiced twice a week, and if you listened carefully on Tuesdays and Thursdays, the sound of iron horseshoes on paved city streets filled the summer night air. The men and their horses were headed for home pastures. Several years later they moved their riding grounds to 15 acres of land north of Aberdeen, land donated by Pearl Slaugh. Two of the Larsen boys joined Al in the club, Randy and Kent. Al was one of the last surviving charter members.\nAfter Al retired from the service station, he was immediately hired to work as groundskeeper for the new Aberdeen golf course \u2013 Hazard Creek. He helped turn the old slough into its current lush condition of fairways and greens.\nHe retired for the second time in his life in 1994, and was honored by the City of Aberdeen for his hard work and dedication to the golf course project. He next served on the Aberdeen Cemetery District Board of Directors. Several years ago he served as Grand Marshall of the Aberdeen Days Parade.\nAl\u2019s large family consisted of sons Dallas and Randy of Aberdeen, Kent of Boise, daughters Mardyne Kisner, Jan Pratt and Tracy Graves of Aberdeen, Toni Bowman of Soda Springs, Karla Morris of Rockland and Di Lyn Larsen-Hill of La Grande, Oregon. He and Ellen Beth had 27 grandchildren, and 32 great-grandchildren, and one great-great grandchild. Two children, Rick of Nampa, and Sandra Hollingsworth of Pocatello, died earlier.\nSome of the highlights of our younger years included Dad teaching us how to ice skate on the American Falls Reservoir at the Boat Dock. We had great childhoods, all of the Larsen kids, thanks to two great parents. Mom and Dad were always spooning and sparking as Mom used to call it, dancing cheek to cheek in the kitchen and always holding hands.\nI\u2019m so glad that many years ago a very young Al Larsen had the audacity to butt in on Lee Hansen\u2019s date at that New Year\u2019s Eve dance with Ellen Beth Barnes. Al pursued and won the heart of that Rockland gal, and what a life we all shared because of it.",

        "raw_content": "Human Capital. Human capital includes the education, skills and health of workers.\nMaybe the most important factor in the development of an LDC is investment in human capital. An improvement in human capital directly impacts on development as it affects the income, health, living standards and social and political freedoms of an LDC\u2019s population. Human capital is key for an LDC\u2019s long-run growth and self-sufficiency.\nAn investment in education means workers\u2019 skills improve and they become more efficient so they can produce more, the economy\u2019s PPF shifts outwards and real GDP rises. Also, workers are better educated so they can adapt and work with machinery and new technology, this helps an economy to develop its manufacture sector.\nRapid growth of the East Asian Tigers South Korea, Taiwan, Singapore and Hong Kong was driven by investment in the manufacture sector but also human capital. Investment in education allowed a skilled labour force to develop and operate the machinery in the manufacture sector. In 1950, Taiwan made 6 years of education compulsory and extended this to 9 years in 1968, an emphasis was placed on female education. Between 1960-2000, Taiwan\u2019s annual economic growth rate averaged 7%.\nAdditionally, because workers\u2019 skills improve, their marginal productivity of labour rises so they should be able to obtain better jobs and earn higher wages. A higher income means workers can buy more goods and services so living standards rise. Also, better literacy and numeracy means people can read and write so they can enjoy social and political freedoms.\nMoreover, an improvement in education means that people are smarter and may innovate, invent and develop new technology. This has positive spill-overs because society will benefit from new technology.\nAn improvement in hospitals and healthcare means more people will be cured of diseases, there will be less illnesses and life expectancy rises. Better health means people can work longer and more efficiently aswell so labour productivity rises, the economy\u2019s productive capacity increases and real GDP rises.\nFurthermore, if females are given at least a basic primary education in literacy, numeracy and health then future generations will have a better education and health. Female education is key for the development of future generations. Robin Jeffery posits that \u201cliterate men have literate sons, literate women have literate children.\u201d\nHowever, there are some drawbacks to investment in human capital:\nA large investment may be required. LDCs may not have the funds to do this. People will need to save but this means a decrease in current consumption which is near impossible given that people will be living close to poverty.\nAfter people are educated they are ready to work so LDCs must also incentivize domestic firms to invest, attract MNCs and develop the infrastructure to create jobs.\nLDCs could suffer brain drain. Maybe LDCs educate their population and then the educated workers leave to earn higher wages in developed countries. The initial educational investment then goes to waste.\nIncome inequality may rise. LDCs must focus on basic education (for example, literacy, numeracy and health) so that the most vulnerable members of society benefit. If instead LDCs invest in universities then this most likely only benefits the rich and allows them to earn higher incomes while the poor do not benefit, so income distribution worsens.",

        "raw_content": "volunteering research continues\nIt always seems something terrible is happening in the news. This week reminded me about the good side of humanity; there are so many people in this community helping each other everyday. Each week I do this project I realize just how much there is around you when you open your eyes and explore a bit. There are so many amazing volunteering opportunities in Boulder alone.\nI feel like I\u2019ve only scratched the surface of learning about what there is to do around me and I want to do more research before deciding where to contribute. I have a couple of other appointments scheduled this week, particularly to learn about Veterans\u2019 services.\nI have learned/decided a few things so far:\n1) I need to be realistic about my time \u2013 I found myself wanting to get involved in everything I heard about this week, but that isn\u2019t realistic. Many programs require a weekly commitment which is just not feasible with my travel schedule. In the case of Boulder Reads, aside from the weekly commitment they have a 5 week training schedule every Thurs night before you can start. I know I won\u2019t be able to make it to that training because of upcoming travel. In cases like this I do wish organizations would consider other options for professionals with less flexible work schedules. I would be willing to do a weekend training instead.\n2) I need to think not only about my own interests but where I could actually make the most impact. While Boulder Reads doesn\u2019t seem like it will be an option, they did refer me to the Boulder Valley Family Literacy Program. This program helps children and adults further their education through ESL, tutoring and GED classes. I think I could have more impact with this organization because I speak Spanish & have tutored & taught ESL in the past.\nI am going to keep doing some research so I can find the best fit. Volunteering is a commitment and I want to make sure I can hold up my end. There are a lot of inspiring opportunities out there. It\u2019s good to know there are so many people doing good in the world. I will soon get back to being one of them.\nback in the saddle of volunteering\nLong before therapeutic horseback riding programs existed, when cowboys were glorified & horses were more a part of life, people sang about the therapeutic benefits of riding, the most famous being Gene Autry\u2019s theme song written by Ray Whitley:\n\u201cI\u2019m back in the saddle again\nout where a friend is a friend\nWhere the longhorn cattle feed\nOn the lowly gypsum weed\nI\u2019m back in the saddle again.\nRockin\u2019 to and fro\nThe expression \u201cback in the saddle\u201d dates back to the 1800s referring to when cowboys would return to work after injury, but over time it became synonymous with \u201creturning to normal activities or duties\u201d. At the Colorado Therapeutic Riding Center they take that idea a step further by using the therapeutic effects of horseback riding to help people with disabilities. As one of the oldest therapeutic riding centers in the country, they help hundreds of people reach beyond their constraints and special needs through a number of riding programs.\nTwo of their key programs are therapeutic riding and hippotherapy. Therapeutic riding teaches riders horsemanship which can help with physical, mental and emotional growth, improving everything from balance to social interactions. Hippotherapy is focused on improving trunk mobility & strength which improves limb function, muscle control and tone, motor development and coordination. They recently did a study with the Children\u2019s Hospital showing the benefits of therapeutic riding with autistic children.\nToday I spoke with Loraine, the Program Director, who showed me around and told me more about their facility & volunteer opportunities. They work with more than 1,000 volunteers each year that serve anywhere between 170-200 riders per week year round. She mentioned to me the thing she hears most from volunteers is how therapeutic the experience is for the volunteers themselves.\nThey also accept donations that are crucial to keeping the horses well cared for aside from keeping the programs running so well. It\u2019s a worthy cause to consider supporting!\nI think one of the important aspects for me this week will be to not only figure out what the right fit will be but also what I can contribute. One of the reasons I quit volunteering as much was because I worked all the time and traveled way too much to be consistent. I didn\u2019t want to let people down. I don\u2019t want travel to hold me back this time, so I just need to sort that part out. It\u2019s going to be a hard decision. All of these organizations are worthwhile.\nliving among wildlife can be dangerous for the wildlife\nToday I spoke with Lindsey Goodwick, the volunteer coordinator at the Greenwood Wildlife Rehabilitation center. They\u2019ve been rehabilitating wildlife for 28 years, helping between 2,000-3,000 animals each year representing over 130 different species.\nLiving in Boulder, I see wildlife around everyday from daily deer visits in our yard to squirrels and birds and even a fox that likes to sun itself up on the hill around from my house. In speaking to Lindsey, they work to educate the community and encourage more of a tolerance of living with wildlife. She shared that many animals arrive unnecessarily. They often have baby squirrels who have fallen from nests that will most often be gathered by their mothers or in other cases raccoons which have been displaced and deemed a nuisance. She encourages people to learn more about the wildlife in their area and to understand it\u2019s where they often need to live too.\nI have a soft spot for animals and of course it would be wonderful to be able to help take care of critters this cute. Lindsey does remind you these animals are wild and therefore need a healthy distance from domesticity. They try to minimize contact so the animals can be released back into the wild. There are lots of ways to volunteer. If you are working at the facility with the animals they ask for a 4 hour/week commitment throughout the season. My travel schedule may make that difficult but there are also other ways to help.\nThey operate a thrift store in Boulder to raise money for supplies, accept donations, animal sponsorships and supplies needed for the animals.\nThis week I\u2019m being reminded that volunteering can involve more than manpower and hours. Many places also need support in other ways.\nnew library card & new appreciation for libraries\nLibraries were always a central part of my childhood. When I was little I would tell my Mom I was afraid of the dark so she\u2019d leave the hall light on and I\u2019d read for hours past my bedtime. Today, I was reminded of what a great community resource libraries are. You can tell the Boulder Public Library is firmly planted in the heart of the Boulder community. I got my first library card in probably 15 years today. Aside from all sorts of volunteering opportunities I found they have all kinds of other great resources like an interesting speaker series, pulitzer-prize winning guest readers, GED classes, musical performances, book club resources and even a Spanish literature book club which I will definitely check out in good time.\nToday I was there to learn more about Boulder Reads, a literacy organization the public library sponsors. Sometimes living in Boulder it\u2019s easy to complain about the lack of diversity, but just through this program alone it\u2019s easy to see that assumption is wrong.\nBoulder Reads helps people from all walks of life from Bosnian refugees & immigrants who are trying to learn English to high school dropouts working towards a GED to senior citizens who may not have received the attention they needed the first time around in school. Each year the public library supports a publication of stories written by many of the participants called Discoveries. It is really remarkable to read about the impact that reading can have on someone\u2019s life, from helping them graduate high school to getting a better job to being able to help their children with homework. It\u2019s something I\u2019ve always taken reading for granted, and it makes you realize what a struggle it must be for people who can\u2019t read.\nVolunteering as a literacy tutor requires a 6 month commitment to working with a participant 3 hours/week after a 15 hour training session. It definitely seems like a worthwhile program! I put a call into the volunteer coordinator to learn more.\ngetting back to volunteering\nI used to be really good about volunteering in the community. After my career picked up its pace, it fell by the wayside. Becoming a part of my community is an important part of this project and I can\u2019t think of a better way than through volunteering. It\u2019s something I\u2019ve missed over the past few years.\nI\u2019ve already done a bit of research and there are a few places I have in mind to visit and learn more about this week that I could volunteer with:\nI\u2019m interested in finding out ways of working with Veterans, especially those who may be in transition coming back from War. I\u2019m going to visit the outreach center since I\u2019m finding it difficult to find specific volunteering opportunities online.\nThis program sounded really interesting. They promote the well-being of disabled people through horseback riding. I grew up riding horses and think this could be a great program to be involved with.\nBoulder Reads is a program through the public library that helps adults and children discover the power of reading. I\u2019m a huge reader and think it\u2019s such an important thing for kids to learn to love. I\u2019m lucky to have had a mother that always took me to the library.\nThis organization is committed to ending violence against women, youth and children through support, advocacy and education. I may not be able to commit to the weekly schedule of this but I think the cause is worth learning more about at the very least.\nLiving in CO, you come across interesting wildlife just about everyday; we have deer that visit our yard daily. This organization helps rehabilitate injured wildlife.\nIf anyone knows of any other organizations that would be interesting to check out, please let me know. I would love to learn more about where others volunteer.\nYou are currently browsing the 09 volunteering category at 52 To Do.",

        "title": "Just How Accurate are Your RFPs - Aerial Services, Inc. (ASI)",
        "raw_content": "June 1, 2016 Mike Tully\nRequests for Proposals (RFPs) are a standard method of soliciting professional services for a reason \u2013 they can save your organization money. They can be efficient mechanisms for the buyer to find a qualified service provider at a competitive price. However, when procuring professional geospatial services, it is rarely advisable to use this process to find the cheapest priced services. This is a sad story repeated over and over again where \u201clowest\u201d price was the goal but in the end the quality, timeliness, and the utility of the deliverables was compromised. RFPs are useful methods of procuring professional services, but can fail an organization and public safety when achieving the lowest price is goal.\nIf project scope and specifications are incomplete or inaccurate, then the intended use of the professional services will be jeopardized.\nRFPs need to accurately or completely describe the project scope or specifications. If they fail to do this, then the intended use of the professional services will be jeopardized. Those purchasing those services will lose value. It is vitally important that before specifications are written, the end users (stakeholders) convene and agree on an \u201cintended use\u201d of the services. Then, and only then, can the specifications be clearly written and ensure the provider delivers what is really needed by those end users.\nIt is, unfortunately, far too common that RFPs are poorly written. Specifications are often misconstrued, undefined, or poorly defined. This results with the buyer having to compare inaccurate and inconsistent bids. They then must choose what they \u201cthink\u201d is a capable service provider for mushy services inconsistently priced. This often leads to the selection of a provider who lacks experience, does not provide the expected quality service, or who contrives a cost/service package in their own best interest and to the detriment of the buyer and stakeholders.\nA description of the responsibilities of the buyer and provider will help to avoid confusion and make the project run smoothly. If the buyer is likely to provide the contractor with existing data (like ground control or an existing DTM) this should be noted. In turn, list if the contractor must perform certain tasks or meet certain deadlines.\nYou should request a list of all subcontractors the submitting firm expects to use. This list should include the subcontractor\u2019s name and address, location (U.S. or foreign \u201coff-shore\u201d companies), what services they will deliver, and how they will be used by the submitting firm.\nAll professional services have specifications, terms, and definitions that should appear with every solicitation. When procuring geospatial services such as aerial photography, Lidar, mapping, ground control, and orthophotography from geospatial service providers include the following:\nSupplemental Project Data\nAll geospatial projects relate to a location on earth. If the buyer can provide the contractor with a shape file defining important project boundaries, it is extremely helpful in accurately designing a project and estimating costs. These are also important contractual elements that help both parties objectively determine if the deliverables properly cover the specified geographical area(s).\nIt\u2019s 2016! Stop asking for 15 paper copies of the proposal! What a waste of carbon! Go digital.\nThis detailed \u201cList of Deliverables\u201d should be included near the end of the \u201cScope of Services.\u201d It clarifies exactly what the contractor is expected to deliver. List all of the features you want represented in deliverables (such as hydro-flattening, breaklines, road centerlines, road edges, top/bottom of river banks, etc.). This list should be as specific as possible. The professional services provider can provide assistance in helping you decide which features are important and what each will cost. Without a definitive list, one bidder may price the job assuming the feature is or is not included, the other bidder may do the opposite, and the buyer doesn\u2019t know the difference.\nList Optional Items\nProfessional service providers may suggest alternate ways of providing the requested items. Or the buyer may request feedback about optional items. Therefore, buyers should provide a section in which these optional items are discussed. Great companies are often great innovators and this is an excellent way to discover new, better ways to map.\nA standardized price sheet guarantees the contractors will provide prices for the items requested consistent with the needs of the buyer and that each bidder\u2019s pricing is comparable. For example, instead of using a single line item like \u201cTopographic Mapping,\u201d it may be important that multiple line items be specified such as \u201cGround Control,\u201d \u201cLidar\u201d and \u201c1-foot Contours,\u201d to understand how a large item is priced and because different stakeholders may need different items. It is also important not to group dissimilar items into a single line item because this makes it difficult or impossible for the buyer to discern the real cost of each item. It is always advisable the pricing sheet request a flat fee or a \u2018price per unit\u2019 for each item. These prices can then easily be compared between different vendors.\nThe buyer is advised to require the contractor and all subcontractors to carry adequate insurance coverage for worker\u2019s compensation, general liability, etc. Other insurance protection may be required depending on the project.\nThese instruments are occasionally included with RFPs and require all bidders to include a bond (or check) with their proposal equal to an established portion of the proposal amount. A bid bond is intended to keep frivolous bidders out of the process, guarantee the owner that the vendor will honor its proposal, and that the vendor will sign all contract documents if awarded the contract. Unfortunately, these add cost to the procurement and are generally not needed when procuring professional services from reputable companies.\nThese bonds are sometimes included with lowest-proposal procurements. The Performance Bond secures the contractor\u2019s promise to perform the contract in accordance with its terms and conditions at the agreed upon price and within the time allowed. For many smaller projects, bonds are an unnecessary expense ultimately borne by the buyer and increases the overall project cost. When procuring services for very large projects these instruments may be warranted but are generally a waste of money on smaller projects when procuring professional services.\nThis section outlines how the buyer will be invoiced by the contractor, when the invoice will be paid, and any other terms. Are these fair for both parties?\nProposal Copies\nIt is still far too common that multiple paper copies of proposals are required. It\u2019s 2016! Stop it already. Go digital. What a waste of carbon! Digital documents are transferred easily, can be read on any device, and can be copied as needed \u2013 reducing resources and costs.\nIt is, unfortunately, far too common that RFPs are poorly written.\nBy writing more complete and accurate solicitations, buyers give themselves a clearer picture of which provider can provide the highest quality deliverables with the best value. Then, they can compare providers\u2019 offers and be confident they have all the information needed to make the best decision regarding their (& the public\u2019s) investment. When procuring professional services, it is often difficult to know what specifications are needed or how to define them clearly. Reach out to professional service providers like Aerial Services and ask for help.\nEditor\u2019s note: You can read another (humorous) article about this subject written by Mike Tully on Professional Surveyor Magazine.",

        "raw_content": "According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), suicide (i.e., taking one\u2019s own life) is a serious public health issue that affects everyone, even young people. For youth between the ages of 10 and 24, suicide is the third leading cause of death. It results in approximately 4600 lives lost each year. The top three methods used in suicides of young people include firearm (45%), suffocation (40%), and poisoning (8%).\nDeaths from youth suicide are only part of the problem. More young people survive suicide attempts than actually die. A nationwide survey of youth in grades 9\u201312 in public and private schools in the United States (U.S.) found that 16% of students reported seriously considering suicide, 13% reported creating a plan, and 8% reporting trying to take their own life in the 12 months preceding the survey. Each year, approximately 157,000 youth between the ages of 10 and 24 receive medical care for self-inflicted injuries at Emergency Departments across the U.S.\nSuicide affects all youth, but some groups are at higher risk than others. Boys are more likely than girls to die from suicide. Of the reported suicides in the 10 to 24 age group, 81% of the deaths were males and 19% were females. Girls, however, are more likely to report attempting suicide than boys. Cultural variations in suicide rates also exist, with Native American/Alaskan Native youth having the highest rates of suicide-related fatalities. A nationwide survey of youth in grades 9\u201312 in public and private schools in the U.S. found Hispanic youth were more likely to report attempting suicide than their black and white, non-Hispanic peers.\nSeveral factors can put a young person at risk for suicide. However, having these risk factors does not always mean that suicide will occur.\nHistory of previous suicide attempts\nHistory of depression or other mental illness\nStressful life event or loss\nEasy access to lethal methods\nExposure to the suicidal behavior of others\nMost people are uncomfortable with the topic of suicide. Too often, victims are blamed, and their families and friends are left stigmatized. As a result, people do not communicate openly about suicide. Thus an important public health problem is left shrouded in secrecy, which limits the amount of information available to those working to prevent suicide.\nThe good news is that research over the last several decades has uncovered a wealth of information on the causes of suicide and on prevention strategies. Additionally, CDC is working to monitor the problem and develop programs to prevent youth suicide.\nInformation and Tips for parents from Dr. Gene Beresin, SADD\u2019s Sr. Advisor of Adolescent Psychiatry\nSelf Harm or Self Injury\nNearly 1 in 12 teens deliberately hurt themselves. Self-injury, also known as self-harm or self-mutilation, is defined as an act wherein someone deliberately hurts or injures themselves. Self-injury is most often used as a coping mechanism and is not an attempt at suicide.\nSelf-harm is common, reported by about 8 percent of 14- to 19-year-olds.\nAt every stage, more girls reported self-harm than boys.\nThose who cut, burned or otherwise deliberately hurt themselves were more likely to be seriously depressed or anxious, and to report smoking, drinking or abusing drugs. Similarly, a small subgroup of students who began hurting themselves as young adults were more likely to report having been depressed or anxious as teenagers.\nThe proportion of young men and women reporting self-harm substantially declined as they aged.\nTeenage self-harmers often have \u201cserious emotional difficulties\u201d and need help and support, lest they suffer persistent problems later in life, therefore, adults \u201cliving and working with young people\u201d need to be able to spot the signs of \u201cpersistent distress.\u201d says Dr. Paul Moran.\nWhat We Are Doing About It: SADD chapters have access to experts, information, tools and campaigns that address a growing range of issues teens are struggling with today. As we hear from teens on the emerging issues, we strive to provide the best tools and support to educate and empower our teens to take the leadership position in their schools and communities and address these issues head on.\nFor more information about youth personal health and safety or to make a contribution feel free to contact us.",

        "raw_content": "Tenant screening is critical when you want to find renters who will pay on time and take good care of your property. At All County Medallion, we have a low eviction rate, and we would like to keep it that way. One way we do that is by screening our tenants well. Today, we\u2019re sharing some of the things we look for and ask tenants when we\u2019re considering applicants for an owner\u2019s property.\nPROPERTY MANAGEMENT IN FORT MYERS: WHAT TO LOOK FOR IN A TENANT BACKGROUND\nYou don\u2019t want to rent to a tenant with an undisclosed or undischarged bankruptcy. If you don\u2019t screen for this and you fail to catch it, the tenant will be able to name the property manager or the owner in the bankruptcy. Until it\u2019s discharged, that person will owe you nothing due to bankruptcy laws. Always check for this.\nWe also take a close look at the prospective tenant\u2019s car. The way a person keeps their car can give us a barometer of how nicely a tenant will keep your property.\nPROPERTY MANAGEMENT IN CAPE CORAL: FINANCIAL SCREENING\nWe always check a tenant\u2019s credit, but there are a couple of things we don\u2019t put a lot of emphasis on. For example, we don\u2019t deny an applicant for having outstanding student loans. There are so many people that just don\u2019t pay them. Medical bills are also often a pass. It sounds trite, but bad things do happen to good people. Medical bills can be a very bad thing, and they can be damaging to a person\u2019s financial security. So, we don\u2019t place a huge emphasis on medical bills or student loans.\nHowever, we do pay attention to car payments and cell phone payments. Cable bill payments are important. If a tenant isn\u2019t making a car payment, that tenant will eventually have trouble getting to work. Phone and cable bills are also a fair to good predictor of whether you\u2019ll get your rent on time.\nThe credit score is good to check, but it\u2019s not all-inclusive when it comes to measuring a prospective tenant\u2019s ability to pay rent.\nThese are some of the things we always watch out for. If you have any questions about tenant screening or anything pertaining to property management in Fort Myers and sunny southwest Florida, please contact us at All County Medallion Property Management.\nFor more information about this subject or anything else related to property management in the Fort Myers area, please contact us at (239) 204-4171 or email us at contact@allcountymedallion.com. We'll be happy to help you with your specific needs.",

Hill had gotten a \u201cgood\u201d deal for Australia at the 1997 Kyoto conference \u2013 a 108% emissions \u201creduction\u201d target (i.e. an increase), and \u2013 crucially \u2013 a land-clearing clause that effectively increased that 108% to about 130 percent. Hill had apparently refused to attempt to get 118%, and is well-regarded by environmentalists known to this author. Hill had signed the Kyoto Protocol for Australia in April of 1998. Later that year it emerged that Cabinet had decided not to ratify unless the USA did. In April 2000 the US Presidential election was still 7 months away. It was an election where Al Gore would win the popular vote, but lose in the Supreme Court. So it goes.

We have now passed a critical point in those meetings; less than a year remains before the conference will take place in Brazil. The conference provides a truly historic opportunity for all of the countries of the world to join together to chart a future for the planet that is bright for our environment as well as for our economies.

        "raw_content": "NextEdward Bernays \u201cPropagada\u201d\namericanminion\ton August 27, 2018\nThe United States (U.S.) is a nation of people who constantly tell the world that they live in the greatest country in the world. This implies that U.S. society is the greatest society in the world. This in turn implies that the citizens of U.S. society are the greatest people in the world. If you live in the U.S., you need to look in the mirror and ask yourself, am I the greatest person in the world. If you are not, then you don\u2019t live in the greatest society in the world. A society is a collection of individuals. Which means you don\u2019t live in the greatest nation in the world. The U.S. is a nation that was created on genocide, kidnapping, and slavery. The exploitation of the weak has always been the mantra of U.S. society. U.S. society is a hierarchical society that allows a small group of people to create currency out-of-thin-air which can be referred to as virtual currency. This small group of people are referred to as \u201coligarchs\u201d or \u201ccapitalist\u201d. Oligarchs use the currency they create to control the masses through fear. They accomplish this control by employing another group of citizens to threaten, brutalize, jail, and murder non-compliant citizens at gunpoint. This brutality is also what makes U.S. currency valuable because if you think U.S. currency has no value, a man with a gun will come to your home and change your mind. This group of citizens that\u2019s willing to be the muscle for the oligarchs are called \u201cpolice.\u201d The first police were slave catchers. The oligarchs also use currency to acquire land or a section of the planet for themselves. The oligarchs don\u2019t care that the section of the planet is currently inhabited by other humans or organic life. The inhabitants are removed or exterminated by force using the group of citizens called \u201cpolice.\u201d The best example of oligarchs using force to acquire land for their own personal use is the creation of the U.S. These oligarchs are referred to as the \u201cfounding fathers.\u201d It is estimated that 100 million Native people were murdered in various ways to create the U.S. Does any of this history sound like a great society?\nWhat kind of society would tolerate this type of behavior from its citizens? A \u201cGreat Society\u201d can only be obtained by its citizens being civil and intelligent. Would any civil intelligent species allow so few people to dictate to them on how to live? Would a society of civil intelligent citizens allow a small group of its citizens to threaten and terrorize them at gunpoint? During the U.S. labor movement of the 1880s and early 1900s, striking working-class citizens were brutalized, jailed, and murdered by the police at the behest of the oligarchs. Is this the criteria for a great society? Working-class citizens trying to provide for themselves and their family have always been met with extreme violence by the oligarchs through the police for demanding a decent life. Would a great society brutalize or murder its citizens for wanting a decent life? Noam Chomsky has stated that U.S. society is a business society in that only corporations and corporate profits matter. In other words, citizens in the middle or bottom of U.S. society don\u2019t matter. Is this what a great society looks like? U.S. society is a society that allows corporations to pollute the air, water, food, and soil. And if you try stopping the environment from being polluted by corporations the oligarchs will send the police or their muscle to murder you. No great society would, for one, pollute its environment and two, murder the citizens trying to stop the polluting. The U.S. government labels citizens who try to stop corporations from polluting the environment as \u201cenvironmental terrorists.\u201d How can a society calling itself great that refers to its citizens that pollute the environment as non-terrorist and citizens who try to stop the polluting as terrorists? What kind of society allows this type of behavior from its citizens? The U.S. claims to be a \u201cdemocracy\u201d which you would think would lead to creating a great society. However Professor David Graeber questions if democracy exists anywhere or if democracy is a western invention? We as citizens of the U.S. must ask ourselves what kind of society we want to live in? What are our values or what do we value? Do we want to live in a great society or do we really care about society at all? Do we want oligarchs to control our lives? Do we want the muscle for the oligarchs to threaten or terrorize us into obedience? Ask yourself, if I could create a great society, what would it look like? We have the technology and resources for the first time in human history to create a great global society. The Choice is Ours by The Venus Project and Zeitgeist: The Move by The Zeitgeist Movement are good documentaries for understanding how we can create a great society.",

        "raw_content": "HomeHomeOur Story\nWhere & who are we?\nAncient Ways is located in Oregon's mid-Willamette Valley, and is based in Lacomb, a rural area in the foothills of the Cascades at Scio's backdoor. The organization, as a community, is an ever-changing organism. The local people who have created this network extend east to Sweet Home, south to Lebanon and Eugene, west to Albany, Philomath, and Corvallis and north to Monmouth, Stayton and Salem. This includes those who have been brought together by sharing the sweet sounds of Zimbabwean music, as well as those who find connection in the heart of Ancient Ways as a center for healing of both our planet and ourselves.\nThe current Board of Directors is Jan Six, Helen Six, Debby Vajda, and Melissa Chamberlin-Bihun.\nMary Ann Tarr, a dear friend and long time Board member who passed on in May of 2012, contributed for many years in a variety of roles from Treasurer to Board Chair. She had been a specialist in working with the deaf children in the mid-Willamette Valley and so gratefully shared those gifts with our project, researching and supplying hearing tests and hearing aids from the US and Harare, as well as providing counsel for all children we came across who needed the assistance in Zimbabwe.\nClarence John Pare, founding member in 1994, donated his time and financial support until his passing in 2009, serving the Ancient Ways board and the Nhimbe for Progress project with ceaseless counsel and optimism. At 86 years young, he went on the March 2007 adventure to Mhondoro and Bulawayo to step into the world that he had so long supported. Although a retired Coast Guard LCDR, he had never been to Africa. His belief in the Ancient Ways vision created the foundation for our work.\nWe support the world community in remembering its connection to, and reverence for, its spirituality, each other's diversity, and the earth, as well as encourage individuals to remember why they are here on the planet. We look to indigenous peoples everywhere to learn about lifestyle choices and how these choices affect the environment, our community as a whole, and ourselves. Historically, we have studied with Native Americans (from North and South America) as well as friends and teachers from Zimbabwe.\nWe are not a religious or political organization - we endeavor to learn, educate, and serve the community from a broad and aware cultural view. We work to change the future for the better through the arts, reverence for nature, and respect for each other.\nAncient Ways provides services locally, in Zimbabwe and to Peruvians.\nOur current focus stateside is a Zimbabwean music program offering weekly classes, as well as occasional gatherings to explore healing.\nAncient Ways has been serving the mid-Willamette Valley since 1993 with weekly music classes and performances with Zimbabwean marimba music.\nIn 2002, Circle of Well Being began, as a way to focus further on experiential opportunities bringing groups together.\nIn a Zimbabwean partnership we have been collaborating to provide rural services since 1999 in Mhondoro, and since 2005 in the Dewedzo Mountains, to over 2,500 people. Through grass-roots donations we have: 1) offered basic health care opportunities and well being education including HIV/AIDS and public health, 2) sponsored children to attend our own preschool, supporting their education through university level, 3) assisted with facilities improvements (huts, toilets, wells, stoves), and 4) promoted sustainable practices for longevity, including for example micro-loans, business training, and encouraging export businesses.\nOur relationship has continued to evolve with Peru since 1997 when Ancient Ways was visited by Don Alejandro who shared his medicine of the Andes and Amazon. Since that time we have continued to cultivate a deep friendship with Peru and its people. We have offered sponsorship to poor Amazonian children who needed financial assistance, as well as repeatedly hosted visiting healers to our local area in Oregon.\nAncient Ways would not have been possible without the ongoing support and commitment of our family and friends who have seen, see, and participate in the vision.",

I don\u2019t get emotional about cricket or red buses, and I\u2019ve heard \u201cJerusalem\u201d played at too many funerals to enjoy it much. However, I came very close to pulling a woman\u2019s head off her shoulders last week because she insulted a symbol that I love. On the East Coast mainline train from London to Newcastle a braying voice suddenly spouted out a mouthful of venom and ridicule aimed at MY ANGEL\u2026and it is mine. It might belong to a lot of other people too but I have an emotional connection with it that makes it mine.\nI love this angel and everything it says about the regeneration of the North East. This area was savaged by Thatcherism in the 1980\u2019s. We lost our pits, our shipyards, our steel works. We were in danger of descending into a nothingness of half-jobs and hopelessness, answering phones in call centres instead of building ships.\nWe were worth more than that and the North East fought back. It regenerated and reinvented itself and, in general, has a level of prosperity and a standard of living higher than it ever had.\nThe angel was part of that fightback.\nIt was a brave decision to spend so much money on a piece of public art, a decision heavily criticised by people who thought the money would have been better spent on housing and job creation, but Antony Gormley\u2019s \u201cAngel of the North\u201d was a statement of intent. The most viewed piece of public art in Britain was a powerful declaration of Newcastle/Gateshead\u2019s capacity to reinvent itself.\nAnyone visiting the Tyne quayside can have no doubt that the reinvention has been achieved \u2013 the Baltic Museum of Modern Art, the SageGateshead music venue, the wonderful \u201cblinking eye\u201d Millennium Bridge. It was a reinvention that started with the angel.\nAs a piece of art it carries powerful symbols of North Eastern heritage. It celebrates the engineering skills of this region, it embraces the religious past of Durham Cathedral and Holy Island, and its position at an old pithead is a wonderful memorial to the miners of our past.\nIt\u2019s a symbol of homecoming and a gesture of defiance. You might not like it but it\u2019s not something to be ignored and it\u2019s a powerful reminder than the North East wasn\u2019t going under without a fight.\n9 Responses to Why It\u2019s MY \u201cAngel of the North\u201d\nI may be a Southerner (part Welsh, part East Anglia, part Derbyshire), but I\u2019m from solid working class stock going back at least 300 years, so I appreciate a symbol of the struggle.\nI absolutely love the Angel, had a moment with it on my own a few years back; touched it, and sat on the grass under it while I gazed skyward. I watched it soar in a blue sky with some picture perfect white clouds. Marvellous!\nYes. All of that.\nLovely post, and I couldn\u2019t agree more.\nAt the time the Angel was created I was teaching Year Five in a primary school in a particularly deprived part of Gateshead. When it first went up a lot of the children were coming into class repeating their parents\u2019 opinions of it: all the money that had been \u201cwasted\u201d on it, that it was rusty, that it looked like an aeroplane had crashed nose-first into the ground, that the \u2018stupid\u2019 artist had said it couldn\u2019t be floodlit.\nThen we were invited to the Central Library for a session with a group of local artists. They were working with the children and families of Gateshead to give them a chance to find out more about Gormley\u2019s work, the Angel, and its place in their landscape. The children learned so much that afternoon about the history of their region, and came out with a genuine understanding of, and love for, the Angel. Quite a few of them told me that they were going to ask their parents to take them to visit it, so they could teach *them* all about it. The pride and hope that was reignited in many North East communities by that sculpture should never be underestimated.\nI was born in Newcastle, but then sadly we lived away for a good few years till I was able to return to attend university in the city. For me \u2018coming home\u2019 was always symbolised by the train pulling towards Central Station and the view of the bridges honing in to view. No longer, to me, I\u2019m home when I look out of the train window (I always have to sit on the left of the train when heading North) and see the Angel looming. That a huge Shearer NUFC was once draped over her shoulders says so much to me that she has been accepted and is \u2018part of the family\u2019 now.\nAlan the Magpie says:\nYes. I still can\u2019t forgive the bloody Evening Chronicle for their luddite, snobbish, short-sighted and at times vitriolic opposition to the thing that now ALL geordies love with a passion. Gormley knew they would, as did I and my sister, and anyone with imagination and pride. Shame on the Chronicle for not even recognising the scale of their folly in their weasly capitulation once the thing was up and public opinion well behind it.\nI have lots of pictures of my now late sister and I under the thing making it special and mine! I love that it\u2019s yours too, Andromeda.\nMrs_Moons says:\nBorn in Newcastle, now living in Yorkshire. and the Angel leaves me teary-eyed each time I see it. It\u2019s a clarion call for Northerners, along with Lindisfarne\u2019s Run For Home. When I hear that, I swivel round unwittingly, like a chubby meer cat, until I\u2019m facing Due North \ud83d\ude09\nCame across your blog today.\nI was very fortunate to visit the NE a while ago and see the \u201cAngel\u201d in person. I\u2019ve lived in Australia for the past 26 years (previously in Felling, Tyne & Wear) and I have to say, the sculpture is extraordinary and close up it is a remarkable feat of work. It was my late father\u2019s favorite artwork and brings back both happy & sad memories\u2026I will be back in the NE next summer 2013 and the \u201cAngel\u201d will again be on my list of must sees. Fantastic!\nThank you for your post ..I am just an averagely macho bloke exiled in the middle east and I just cried when I read your words\u2026It is called the Angel of the North for a reason..it is not the property of Newcastle ( wrong side of the river for a start), it is in everybodys heart as Newcastle, Gateshead, Sunderland and all the pit villages of the Durham coalfields have suffered \u2026but willl rise again\nNice piece of art, but as someone who worked in the houses that it overlooked which were some of the poorest and deprived in Gateshead at that time, it was far from a symbol of hope and more an indication that Gateshead had forgotten all about them and were willing to spend more on an object of art than on people. Just worth bearing that in mind when considering all the fanfare about how lovely it is.",

        "raw_content": "\u2190 Doing Nothing With A Child\nAndromeda\u2019s Bucket List \u2192\nGypsy/Roma travellers get a bad press don\u2019t they? In the wake of the Dale Farm affair I\u2019ve been hearing so many comments on social media sites passed off as facts. This worries me. I live and work in an area with a high number of Gypsy/Roma travellers. I have friends who are Gypsies, their children went to school with mine, a Gypsy friend looked after my son when I couldn\u2019t afford childcare so I could work. She did it for 18 months and refused to take a penny from me. I\u2019d just like to comment on some of the things I\u2019ve heard.\n1. Why don\u2019t they work like other people and stop claiming benefits? As any school knows, it\u2019s really difficult to persuade Gypsy/Roma families to claim their benefit entitlement, for example, free school meals. Schools get extra money proportionate to their free school meal numbers so it\u2019s in their interests to make sure eligible families claim. It\u2019s very difficult to persuade Gypsy/Roma families to claim anything they see as a handout.\n2. Why call themselves travellers when they don\u2019t travel? \u201cTraveller\u201d is a cultural and historical identity. It\u2019s very difficult to travel in a country where there are an ever-diminishing number of roadside camping spots. Those decorative stone blocks on grass verges are put there to stop travellers stopping over. I have friends who live in a farmhouse. They still identify themselves as Gypsies even though the caravan only comes out to travel to Appleby Horse Fair.\n3. Gypsies are dirty. Oh no they\u2019re not. I once caused offence in a gypsy house by perching on the corner of the kitchen table. Luckily, they were friends of mine and explained to the extended family that \u201cI didn\u2019t know it was dirty to sit on tables.\u201d I\u2019ve also heard Gypsy female friends express disgust at other \u201cscruffy Gypsies\u201d who washed and washed-up in the same bowl. Gypsy caravans are usually spotless and full of beautiful china and crystal. Often, the plastic is left on the chairs to make sure the upholstery stays clean.\n5. They\u2019re all thieves. Ask any police force and they\u2019ll tell you that the crime rate goes up when Gypsies are passing through. They\u2019ll also tell you that it\u2019s normally the time when the local criminals go on a thieving spree. Our local press has reported on tradesmen who have fly-tipped rubbish near gypsy camps (and were caught on CCTV). It\u2019s easy to scapegoat Gypsies. Of course some Gypsies are thieves and villains. Don\u2019t all cultural groups have those minorities?\nThere are things about Gypsy/Roma culture that worry me. It worries me that they can\u2019t properly access full health care. Getting dental care when you don\u2019t have a fixed address is very difficult. A lot of older Gypsies are functionally illiterate. How do you get a sight test when you can\u2019t name the letters on the chart? Nobody like to admit they can\u2019t read.\nIt worries me that it takes years for Gypsy/Roma families to build trust relationships with schools. They\u2019re scared that their children will be abused. I\u2019ve seen a family hand out birthday party invitations to every child in my class except the Gypsy little girl. They \u201cdidn\u2019t want Gy**os there.\u201d I reported it as a racist incident because that\u2019s my statutory responsibility but I can\u2019t imagine how it feels to hear those comments.\nI\u2019m not saying Gypsy/Roma culture is perfect. It isn\u2019t singing round campfires and jolly horse trading. It\u2019s a hard life and a culturally insular one. I don\u2019t think any of our cultural groups in this country are beyond criticism but I think Gypsy/Roma people come in for a level of racist abuse that people would hesitate to use of other minority ethnic groups. Ideally, I would like people to think before they speak. Is what they\u2019re saying a fair criticism? Would they feel comfortable saying it if they inserted the name of another minority group? If the answer\u2019s yes, then speak out. If you would think twice about saying it about another group don\u2019t say it about Gypsy/Roma travellers.\n10 Responses to They\u2019re Gypsies, not Tramps and Thieves.\nrithompson says:\nI hear you loud and clear. Okay, there are problems in the Gypsy community, but it doesn\u2019t really help that other communities cut them off (this happens across Europe). It just increases the fear and intolerance between communities \u2013 and we all know where fear and intolerance lead.\nYour blog can be summed up in one sentence: \u201cI\u2019ve had good experiences with gypsies/travellers, so everyone else is lying or mistaken\u201d.\nI did like the one about the crime figures only going through the roof because all the local villains used their presence as a stalking horse, though. That one was a corker!\nI live very near to an annually used traveller site, and the MARKED increase in crime is solely down to them. The locals know this, the police know it, and they know it.\nWhilst this is clearly the other end of the spectrum to what YOU have found, it would be ignorant and blinkered to pretend that there were not genuinely such occurances.\nNicola Ridings (@nicolaridings) says:\nI\u2019ve got to post my own experience and hand on heart it is a truly honest one. In Feb 2010 I got married. My wedding venue had no accommodation so I chose a nearby hotel for my guests and I to stay at. Unbeknown to me, the hotel was hosting a traveller wedding on the same day. When my guests and I arrived back at the hotel at around midnight we were met with shocking scenes of disorder, violence and intimidation including:-\nMy train being stood on and a couple of gypsy boys refusing to step off it\nTrying to grab a Polaroid camera that was under the pushchair of my sleeping child\nOne of them flicked a lit cigarette at my grandfather\nFighting amongst themselves\nPushing one of my disabled relatives out of the way to access the lift\nSmashing in ceilings in corridors\nPlus small things like their disregard for queuing etc\nTrying to break down doors of guests hotel rooms\u2026\u2026.I could go on\nDue to the damage the hotel had suffered some of my guests couldn\u2019t gain access to their rooms and 1 family had to get in their car and travel home at 1am .\nIn the end my guests and I were locked in the hotel\u2019s golf club for our own safety, given the hotel had promised us an area where we could have a nightcap when we arrived back from our actual wedding venue.\nThe only part of their community we didn\u2019t feel intimidated by were the more senior females amongst them.\nAs some form of recompense all my guests received a full refund, however, I suspect my wedding will always be remembered and talked about for all the wrong reasons.\nGillian (@look_mama) says:\nI think your blog raises very salient points. The health care issue especially. I hadn\u2019t thought of that. It\u2019s no doubt similar in my country. Education is a big fat key to success for sure\u2026 and good manners cost nothing. : )\ntheworldismycloister (@mycloisterworld) says:\nHurrah! I agree with you. The Dale Farm commentaries on the News were biased and, at times, cruel. I, too, have known only kindness and respect from the Traveller community. xx\nScyrene says:\nThe problem with something like Nicola\u2019s experience is (and this is true of any obvious \u2018other\u2019 group) that the (bad) behaviour witnessed is then linked to the group\u2019s identity. If someone sees a bunch of people fighting, or being abusive, or otherwise not acting the way they might be expected, it\u2019s often linked by the witness to a label applied to those people. What I mean is, had they not been gypsies, you might not have made the link. Imagine if the group had been white and non-gypsy \u2013 you wouldn\u2019t then say \u2018white people tend to be violent/rowdy/troublesome\u2019. But when it\u2019s minority groups, bad behaviour gets associated with their identity. It\u2019s nonsensical \u2013 only the very weakest generalisations apply to broad groupings. Individual behaviour is just that.\nHaven\u2019t you just shot down Andromedababe\u2019s entire post with that?\nLet\u2019s rephrase: \u201cThe problem with something like Andromedababe\u2019s experience is (and this is true of any obvious \u2018other\u2019 group) that the (good) behaviour witnessed is then linked to the group\u2019s identity.\u201d\nSeems to me you can\u2019t have it both ways \u2013 you can\u2019t claim good behaviour is representative of a group either.\nI\u2019m guessing any reply to Nicola\u2019s experience (if there is one) will be a variation on the \u2018no true Scotsman\u2019 excuse\u2026\nam so happy Gypsy\u2019s are not Romanians this is what i wrote after seeing bbd documentary.\nThis is for everyone on here. I would like to say a big well done to the BBC for this documentary and all the casting team you have just made lots of children suffer may even die. by exposing the gypsies to more prejudice and anger just have a look of the comments on here that people are making with out looking at the facts first. hope they think about this when you go to sleep in your warm beds and take your children off to school with a belly full of food because if the gypsy children and woman didn\u2019t beg the the whole family would suffer. and has for the traffickers yes this is wrong and they make money out vulnerable gypsies but most of these traffickers are not Gypsies but still the gypsies the are having a much better life begging because if they was in their own Country some of the children get taking away from the family because the government gives gypsy families literally nothing to live on and they would end up in a orphanage even though this video this was a few years ago nothing much has changed. Gypsies in orphanages getting adoption is non-existent by Romania people and this is where they all end up please watch the link before you continue reading https://youtu.be/eb7rvp4yI1w So here are the facts with years of research i\u2019m taking everything into consideration. Romania slaved gypsies for 500 years up to the 1860 the reason being they had a lot of worth and many different skills . In the 500 years of slavery they suffered unimaginably.You can look this up in most library\u2019s. So just after black slavery was abolished Romania was made to free the gypsies but did they . Remember they didn\u2019t have a army to fight for them like the North and south did for the black people they didn\u2019t have any support to make sure even tho they was free they was still made to work for the same slave owners so they wouldn\u2019t die of starvation. So from 1860\nTo 1939 nothing had changed for the gypsies they still was made to be slaves but in a alternative way and was still all being subjected to killing rape torture the list goes on. Some of them manage to get away to Germany and as we know Hitler killed and torture and experimented on gypsys children and figers say they could have killed up to 1.5 million of them.\nSo from 1860 to 1945 nothing hadn\u2019t changed for the gypsys still outcasted by this time while Americans had the black people was fighting back saying no to racism and great support of the likes of Martin Luther king and a long list of others like him. The Romania gypsies had no one. And a lot of this comes down to the Romania government and most of the Romania people keeping the gypsys depressed. And not allowing them to have education jobs basic health care and casted out to live in the worse conditions imaginable. So this should bring us to 1980s a where the Romania government starts letting gypsys have education and welfare and try to integrate them selves to make they look like a suitable country like the rest of Europe but do they. And the answer to that question is no why because a in Romania you need papers to prove you are a Romania citizen the government knows most of them don\u2019t carry papers so they are refused welfare housing so do you die of starvation and watch the family starve to death or do you go out and beg. but wait no one would give a Romania gypsy any money on the street of course not and some people might give gypsy women money if they are lucky but children you got to be A evil person if you don\u2019t give a child money so they you have it\nif gypsy children they don\u2019t beg their family will live in unbelievable conditions. so on to the 1970 up to 2000 where between that time some had managed to hide their gypsy status and get jobs education they knew if People found out they are gypsies it would be very hard to get a job and live a normal life and if their kids went to school they would be discriminated against by the students and teachers.many of the Gypsies are now working In Romania society teachers doctors and in government but lot of the gypsies will not speak out of fear of losing their jobs and if they did speak out they would probably be back where they started . That Takes us up to 2000 2015\nSo Romania government and people give the gypsies about 40 years to get back to civilisation after 560 years of discrimination slavery and their dignity and all rights taken away from them . And in the last 40 years having a very slim chance of education work or Health care and being forced move place to place in some of the worst conditions in the EU some still Live in mud houses with no electricity no water and sanitation. the Romania government and the news puts all the bad publicity on them to hide up their problems. Now Romania Gypsies can travel any where in EU for the last 8 years looking for jobs but no one won\u2019t give a gypsy A job would you after all this negative discrimination and publicity you had seen like this BBC documentary.\nSo finally after all the years of suffering they can go and look for a better life but they was wrong again. Gypsies travel to go other countries some looking for work and some looking to beg because that\u2019s all they know and a small amount might even steal so yet again the the news and TV concentrate only on the negative few that probably do this as this is all they know. and if you worried about petty crime just have a look at non gypsy crimes the statistics will shock you to know that the more sinister and evil crimes are done by non- gypsy\u2019s not me say this it is fact look it up for yourself every year in the EU millions of cases but murder rape torture kidnap drug abuse shoplifting by non-gypsies. And all these gypsies only to be sent back to Romania even the ones thats lived in the Eu for years no other race as been made to go home. The Truth is the Romania Government owe billions of pounds to the gypsies for 500 years of slavery\nAntiziganism or Anti-Romanyism or Anti-Gypsyism is hostility, prejudice, discrimination or racism directed at the Romani people (commonly known as Gypsies).\nThe root zigan (pronounced [\u02c8tsi\u0261a\u02d0n]) is the basis of the word given to the Roma people in many European languages.[citation needed] History of antiziganism[edit] In the Middle Ages[edit] A French poster depicting a child being kidnapped by nomads In the early 13th-century Byzantine records, the Ats\u00ednganoi are mentioned as \u201cwizards\u2026 who are inspired satanically and pretend to predict the unknown.\u201d[ 1] By the 16th century, many Romani in Eastern and Central Europe worked as musicians, metal craftsmen, and soldiers.[2] As the Ottoman Turks expanded, they relegated Romani, seen as having \u201cno visible permanent professional affiliation\u201d, to the lowest rung of the social ladder.[3] In Royal Hungary in the 16th century at the time of the Turkish occupation, the Crown developed strong anti-Romani policies, as this people were considered suspect as Turkish spies or as a fifth column. In this atmosphere, they were expelled from many locations and increasingly adopted a nomadic way of life.[4] The first anti-Romani legislation was issued in March of Moravia in 1538, and three years later, Ferdinand I ordered that Romani in his realm be expelled after a series of fires in Prague. Seven years later, the Diet of Augsburg declared that \u201cwhosoever kills a Gypsy, will be guilty of no murder.\u201d[ 5] In 1556, the government stepped in to \u201cforbid the drowning of Romani women and children.\u201d[ 6] In England, the Egyptians Act 1530 banned Romani from entering the country and required those living in the country to leave within 16 days. Failure to do so could result in confiscation of property, imprisonment and deportation. The act was amended with the Egyptians Act 1554, which directed that they abandon their \u201cnaughty, idle and ungodly life and company\u201d and adopt a settled lifestyle. For those who failed to adhere to a sedentary existence, the Privy council interpreted the act to permit execution of non-complying Romani \u2018as a warning to others\u2019.[7] 18th century[edit] In 1710, Joseph I, Holy Roman Emperor, issued an edict against the Romani, ordering \u201cthat all adult males were to be hanged without trial, whereas women and young males were to be flogged and banished forever.\u201d In addition, in the kingdom of Bohemia, romani men were to have their right ears cut off; in the March of Moravia, the left ear was to be cut off. In other parts of Austria, they would be branded on the back with a branding iron, representing the gallows.These mutilations enabled authorities to identify the individuals as Romani on their second arrest. The edict encouraged local officials to hunt down Romani in their areas by levying a fine of 100 Reichsthaler for those failing to do so. Anyone who helped Romani was to be punished by doing a half-year\u2019s forced labor. The result was \u201cmass killings\u201d of Romani. In 1721, Charles VI amended the decree to include the execution of adult female Romani, while children were \u201cto be put in hospitals for education.\u201d[ 8] In 1774, Maria Theresa of Austria issued an edict forbidding marriages between Romani. When a Romani woman married a non-Romani, she had to produce proof of \u201cindustrious household service and familiarity with Catholic tenets\u201d, a male Rom \u201chad to prove ability to support a wife and children\u201d, and \u201cGypsy children over the age of five were to be taken away and brought up in non-Romani families.\u201d[ 9] In 2007 the Romanian government established a panel to study the 18th and 19th-century practice of Romani slavery by Princes, local landowners, and monasteries. Slavery of Romani was outlawed in the Romanian Principalities, Moldavia and Wallachia, around 1856.[10] 19th century[edit] Governments regularly cited petty theft committed by Romani as justification for regulating and persecuting them. In 1899, the Nachrichtendienst in Bezug auf die Zigeuner (\u201cIntelligence Service Regarding the Gypsies\u201d) was set up in Munich under the direction of Alfred Dillmann, and catalogued data on all Romani individuals throughout the German-speaking lands. It did not officially close down until 1970. The results were published in 1905 in Dillmann\u2019s Zigeuner-Buch,[11] which was used in the following years as justification for the Porajmos. It described the Romani people as a \u201cplague\u201d and a \u201cmenace\u201d, but almost exclusively characterized \u201cGypsy crime\u201d as trespassing and the theft of food.[11] Porajmos[edit] German Nazi deportation of Sinti and Roma from Asperg, 1940 Main article: Porajmos Persecution of Romani people reached a peak during World War II in the Porajmos, the Nazi genocide of Romanis during the Holocaust. Because the Romani communities of Eastern Europe were less organized than the Jewish communities, it is more difficult to assess the actual number of victims though the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Research Institute in Washington puts the number of Romani lives lost by 1945 at between 500,000 and 1.5million. Former ethnic studies professor Ward Churchill has argued that the Romani population suffered proportionally more genocide than the Jewish population of Europe and that their plight has largely been sidelined by scholars and the media.[12] According to Nazi ideology the Romani were at the bottom of the racial scale along with Jews and blacks as non-Aryans.[13] After the Nuremberg Laws of 1935 became intact, Romani people were stripped of their citizenship and forbidden to have sexual relations and marriages with Aryans.\nThe extermination of Romanis by the German Nazi authorities in the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia was so thorough that the Bohemian Romani language became an extinct language. The policy of the Nazis varied across countries they conquered: they killed almost all the Romanis in the Baltic countries, yet they did not attempt to eliminate the Romanis in Denmark or Greece.\nRomanis were also persecuted by the fascist Usta\u0161e in Croatia, who were allied with the Nazis. As a result, there were hardly any Romanis left in Croatia after the war.\nContemporary antiziganism[edit] According to a report issued by Amnesty International in 2011, \u201c\u2026systematic discrimination is taking place against up to 10 million Roma across Europe. The organization has documented the failures of governments across the continent to live up to their obligations\u201d.[14] Antiziganism has continued well into the 2000s, particularly in Slovakia,[15] Hungary,[16] Slovenia[17] and Kosovo.[18] In Bulgaria, Professor Ognian Saparev has written articles stating that \u2018Gypsies\u2019 are culturally inclined towards theft and use their minority status to \u2018blackmail\u2019 the majority.[19] European Union officials censured both the Czech Republic and Slovakia in 2007 for forcibly segregating Romani children from normal schools.[20] The Council of Europe Commissioner for Human Rights Thomas Hammarberg has been an outspoken critic of Antiziganism, both in reports and periodic Viewpoints. In August 2008, Hammarberg noted that \u201ctoday\u2019s rhetoric against the Roma is very similar to the one used by Nazis and fascists before the mass killings started in the thirties and forties. Once more, it is argued that the Roma are a threat to safety and public health. No distinction is made between a few criminals and the overwhelming majority of the Roma population. This is shameful and dangerous.\u201d[21] According to the latest Human Rights First Hate Crime Survey, Romanis routinely suffer assaults in city streets and other public places as they travel to and from homes and markets.In a number of serious cases of violence against Romani people, attackers have also sought out whole families in their homes, or whole communities in settlements predominantly housing Romanis. These widespread patterns of violence are sometimes directed both at causing immediate harm to Romanis, without distinction between adults, the elderly, and small children and physically eradicating the presence of Romani people in towns and cities in several European countries.[22] North America[edit] Canada[edit] When Romani refugees were allowed into Canada in 1997, a protest was staged by 25 people, including neo-Nazis, in front of the motel where the refugees were staying. The protesters held signs that included, \u201cHonk if you hate Gypsies,\u201d \u201cCanada is not a Trash Can,\u201d and \u201cG.S.T. \u2013 Gypsies Suck Tax.\u201d (The last is a reference to Canada\u2019s Goods and Services Tax, also known as GST.) The protesters were charged with promoting hatred, and the case, called R. v. Krymowski, reached the Supreme Court of Canada in 2005.[23] On 5 September 2012, prominent Canadian conservative commentator Ezra Levant broadcast a commentary \u201cThe Jew vs. the Gypsies\u201d on The Source in which he accused the Romani people of being a group of criminals saying: \u201cThese are gypsies, a culture synonymous with swindlers. The phrase gypsy and cheater have been so interchangeable historically that the word has entered the English language as a verb: he gypped me. Well the gypsies have gypped us. Too many have come here as false refugees. And they come here to gyp us again and rob us blind as they have done in Europe for centuries \u2026 They\u2019re gypsies. And one of the central characteristics of that culture is that their chief economy is theft and begging.\u201d[ 24] United States[edit] Americans are largely unaware of the stigma that surrounds Romani ancestry elsewhere in the world. Because the Roma population in the United States has assimilated quickly and Roma people are not often portrayed in US popular culture, the term \u201cGypsy\u201d is typically associated with a trade or lifestyle instead of the Romani ethnic group. While many Americans regard ethnic costume offensive (e.g. blackface), many Americans continue to dress as gypsy characters for Halloween or other events. Additionally, some small businesses, particularly those in the fortune-telling and psychic reading industry, [25] use the term \u201cGypsy\u201d to describe themselves or their enterprise, despite having no ties to the Roma people.\nWhile some scholars argue that appropriation of the Roma identity in the United States is explained by misperception and ignorance rather than anti-ziganism, [26] Romani advocacy groups themselves decry the practice.[27] Europe[edit] European Union[edit] The practice of placing Romani students in segregated schools or classes remains widespread in countries across Europe.[28] Many Romani children have been channeled into all-Romani schools that offer inferior quality education and are sometimes in poor physical condition, or into segregated all-Romani or predominantly Romani classes within mixed schools.[29] Many Romani children are sent to classes for pupils with learning disabilities. They are also sent to so-called \u201cdelinquent schools\u201d, where a variety of human rights abuses take place.[29] Romani in European population centers are often accused of crimes such as pickpocketing. In 2009 a documentary by the BBC called Gypsy child thieves uncovered how Gypsy children were kidnapped and abused by Gypsy gangs from Romania. The children were often held locked in sheds during the nights and sent to steal during the days. In Milan, Italy, it is estimated that a single Gypsy child was able to steal as much as \u20ac12, 000 in a month; there were as many as 50 of such abused Gypsy children operating in the city. Meanwhile, the Romani bosses of these gangs were building glossy villas back in Romania. The film went on to describe the link between poverty, discrimination, crime and exploitation.[30] A United Nations study[31] found that Romanis in European countries are arrested for robbery at a much higher rate than other groups. Amnesty International[32] and Romanis groups such as the Union Romani blame widespread police and government racism and persecution.[33] In July 2008, a Business Week feature found the region\u2019s Romani population to be a \u201cmissed economic opportunity.\u201d[ 34] Hundreds of people from Ostravice, in the Beskydy mountains in Czech Republic, signed a petition against a plan to move Romani families from Ostrava city to their home town, fearing the Romani invasion as well as their schools not being able to cope with the influx of Romani children.[35] In 2009, the UN\u2019s anti-racism panel charged that \u201cGypsies suffer widespread racism in European Union.\u201d that \u2018Racially motivated crime is an everyday experience\u2019 for Roma people, says EU\u2019s Fundamental Rights Agency.\u2019.[36] The EU has launched a program entitled Decade of Roma Inclusion to combat this and other problems.[37] Bulgaria[edit] In 2011 in Bulgaria, widespread anti-Roma protests occurred in response to the murder of Angel Petrov on the orders of Kiril Rashkov, a Roma leader in the village of Katunitsa. In the subsequent trial, the killer, Simeon Yosifov, was sentenced to 17 years in jail.[38] As of May 2012, an appeal was under way.\nCzech Republic[edit] Sign banning entry of itinerant Gypsies and rovers, 1920s Further information: Romani people in the Czech Republic Roma make up 2\u20133% of population in the Czech Republic. According to \u0158\u00ed\u010dan (1998), Roma make up more than 60% of Czech prisoners and about 20\u201330% earn their livelihood in illegal ways, such as procuring prostitution, trafficking and other property crimes.[39] Roma are thus more than 20 times overrepresented in Czech prisons than their population share would suggest.\nAccording to 2010 survey, 83% of Czechs consider Roma asocial and 45% of Czechs would like to expel them from the Czech Republic.[40] A 2011 poll, which followed after a number of brutal attacks by Romani perpetrators against majority population victims, revealed that 44% of Czechs are afraid of Roma people.[41] The majority of the Czech people do not want to have Romanis as neighbours (almost 90%, more than any other group[42]) seeing them as thieves and social parasites. In spite of long waiting time for a child adoption, Romani children from orphanages are almost never adopted by Czech couples.[43] After the Velvet Revolution in 1989 the jobs traditionally employing Romanis either disappeared or were taken over by immigrant workers.[citation needed] Among highly publicized cases was the V\u00edtkov arson attack of 2009, in which four right-wing extremists seriously injured a three-year-old Romani girl. The public responded by donating money as well as presents to the family, who were able to buy a new house from the donations, while the perpetrators were sentenced to 18 and 22 years in prison.\nThe Romanis are at the centre of the agenda of far-right groups in the Czech Republic, which are spreading antiziganism especially in connection with criminal acts rendered by Romani perpetrators on majority population victims. The groups focusing especially on cases of rapes and murders, such as nearly killing and rape of a 13-year-old boy in Duchcov or the rape of a 17-year-old girl in church in Nov\u00fd Byd\u017eov, [44] or brutal murder of an 81-year-old woman in Ole\u0161nice by gang of Romani children, who were sent to commit the crime by father of one of them in order to exploit lower ranges of punishment available for minors.[45] Far-right groups often hold demonstrations in places, where majority population suffers from high crime rates attributed to Romani perpetrators.[46][47][48] Far-right groups also organize \u201ccrime patrols\u201d in such places.[49][50] (these are however no militia style patrols, they rather rely on requesting police presence). Far-right is also promoting repatriation of Roma to India on voluntary basis, arguing that the Czech state should offer paying all the costs, including establishment of their new livelihood there.[51][52] There are some Romani groups calling for a similar plan, however instead of India they are requesting relocation to Germany, France, United Kingdom, Denmark, Sweden, Finland or Belgium, while in their view the Czech Republic should reimburse costs.[53] In January 2010, Amnesty International launched a report titled Injustice Renamed: Discrimination in Education of Roma persists in the Czech Republic.[54] According to the BBC, it was Amnesty\u2019s view that while cosmetic changes had been introduced by the authorities, little genuine improvement in addressing discrimination against Romani children has occurred over recent years.[55] Denmark[edit] In Denmark, there was much controversy when the city of Helsing\u00f8r decided to put all Romani students in special classes in its public schools. The classes were later abandoned after it was determined that they were discriminatory and the Romanis were put back in regular classes.[56] France[edit] Further information: French Romani repatriation France has come under criticism for its treatment of Roma. In the summer of 2010 French authorities demolished at least 51 illegal Roma camps and began the process of repatriating their residents to their countries of origin.[57] The French government has been accused of perpetrating these actions to pursue its political agenda.[58] In July 2013 Jean-Marie Le Pen, a very controversial far-right politician and founder of the Front national, had a lawsuit filed against him by the European Roma and Travellers Forum, SOS Racisme and the French Union of Travellers Association after he publicly called France\u2019s Roma population \u201csmelly\u201d and \u201crash-inducing\u201d, claiming his comments violated French law on inciting racial hatred.[59] Germany[edit] After 2005 Germany deported some 50, 000 people, mainly Romanis, to Kosovo.These were asylum seekers who fled the country during the Kosovo War. The people were deported after living more than 10 years in Germany. The deportations were highly controversial: many were children, who obtained education in Germany, spoke German as their primary language and considered themselves to be Germans.[60] Hungary[edit] Hungary has seen escalating violence against the Romani people. On 23 February 2009, a Romani man and his five-year-old son were shot dead in Tat\u00e1rszentgy\u00f6rgy village southeast of Budapest as they were fleeing their burning house which was set alight by a petrol bomb. The dead man\u2019s two other children suffered serious burns. Suspects were arrested and are currently on trial.[61] In 2012, Vikt\u00f3ria Moh\u00e1csi, 2004\u20132009 Hungarian Member of European Parliament of Romani ethnicity, asked for asylum in Canada after previously requesting police protection at home due to serious threats from hate groups she was receiving.[62][63] Ireland[edit] In 2008 Marioara Rostas, a teenage Roma girl was abducted in Dublin city centre, reportedly by member(s) of a notorious local crime family. Over the next week she was raped multiple times, abused, including having her teeth removed, and shot dead.[64][65] Her body was discovered in the Wicklow Mountains four years later in a crime that shocked the Irish Garda Representative Association (GRA) on indifference to the crime within Irish society and why had there been no \u201coutpourings of disgust that such depravity could be committed here\u201d.[66] The lack of public outcry in Ireland led journalist Cormac O\u2019Keeffe of the Irish Examiner to write: \u201cKidnapped, gang raped, tortured, shot and dumped, but no one cares\u201d in March 2012.[64] There were expressions of anti-Roma sentiment made in the comments section of the newspaper\u2019s web site[67] and several follow-up article commenting on the country\u2019s attitude to Romanian Roma immigration.[67][68] Subsequent articles entitled \u201cWe must fight Irish prejudice\u201d highlighting an undercurrent of racism in Ireland.[68] The Integration Centre in Dublin stated that Roma people were: \u201croutinely demonized and dehumanised.\u201d[ 66] It is likely that this dehumanization was a factor in the rape, torture and murder of the girl. Is it also likely that this dehumanization was a factor in the indifference that greeted the news and detail of her death.\u201d[ 66] The Irish Travellers\u2019 Movement said they would send out a \u201cstrong message that no one deserves to die so young and in such a horrific violent way\u201d.Members of Pavee Point, an indigenous Irish Traveller organization, Roma and members of the settled community led a small candle-lit vigil with the media and Garda members in attendance in February 2012, close to the last reported sighting of the Roma teenager.[69] Alan Wilson (33) was charged with her murder on 5 April 2012.[70] Italy[edit] See also: Anti-Roma sentiment in Italy In 2007 and 2008, following the brutal rape and subsequent murder of a woman in Rome at the hands of a young man from a local Romani encampment, [71] the Italian government started a crackdown on illegal Roma and Sinti campsites in the country.\nIn May 2008 Romani camps in Naples were attacked and set on fire by local residents.[72] In July 2008, a high court in Italy overthrew the conviction of defendants who had publicly demanded the expulsion of Romanis from Verona in 2001 and reportedly ruled that \u201cit is acceptable to discriminate against Roma on the grounds that they are thieves.\u201d[ 73] One of those freed was Flavio Tosi, Verona\u2019s mayor and an official of the anti-immigrant Lega Nord.[73] The decision came during a \u201cnationwide clampdown\u201d on Romanis by Italian prime minister Silvio Berlusconi. The previous week, Berlusconi\u2019s interior minister Roberto Maroni declared that all Romanis in Italy, including children, would be fingerprinted.[73] Opposition party member, Gianclaudio Bressa, responded by insisting that these measures \u201cincreasingly resemble those of an authoritarian regime\u201d.[73] In response to the fingerprinting plan, three United Nations experts testified that \u201cby exclusively targeting the Roma minority, this proposal can be unambiguously classified as discriminatory.\u201d[74] The European Parliament denounced the plan as \u201ca clear act of racial discrimination\u201d and asked the Italian government not to continue.[74] Romani woman demonstrating in Bucharest, Romania against an Antiziganistic remark of the Romanian president Traian B\u0103sescu against a journalist who bothered him in May 2007.[75] The text on the shirt is \u0162iganc\u0103 \u00eempu\u0163it\u0103! (\u201cStinking gypsy!\u201d) Romania[edit] Further information: Romani people in Romania Roma make up 3.3% of population in Romania. Prejudice against Romanis is common amongst the Romanians, who characterize the Gypsies as being thieves, dirty, and lazy.[76] A 2000 EU report about Romani said that in Romania\u2026 the continued high levels of discrimination are a serious concern.. and progress has been limited to programmes aimed at improving access to education.[ 77] A survey of the Pro Democra\u0163ia association in Romania revealed that 94% of the questioned persons believe that the Romanian citizenship should be revoked to the ethnic Romani who commit crimes abroad.[78] In 2009-2010, a media campaign followed by a parliamentarian initiative asked the Romanian Parliament to accept a proposal to change back the official name of country\u2019s Roma (adopted in 2000) to \u021aigan (Gypsy), the traditional and colloquial Romanian name for Romani, in order to avoid the possible confusion among the international community between the words Roma \u2013 which refers to the Romani ethnic minority \u2013 and Romania.[79] The Romanian government supported the move on the grounds that many countries in the European Union use a variation of the word \u021aigan to refer to their Gypsy populations. The Romanian upper house, Senate, rejected the proposal.[80][81] Violence against Gypsies has also been common in Romania, especially police brutality, such cases of excessive force being not adequately investigated or sanctioned.[76] Several anti-Romani riots occurred in the last decades, notable of which being the H\u0103d\u0103reni riots of 1993, in which a mob of Romanians and Hungarians, in response to the killing of a Romanian by a Gypsy, burnt down 13 houses belonging to the Gypsies, lynched three Gypsies, and forced 130 people to flee the village.[82] In Baia Mare, Mayor C\u0103t\u0103lin Chereche\u0219 announced the building of a 3-metre high, 100-metre long concrete wall to divide the buildings in which the Gypsy community lives from the rest of the city, arguing that this would bring \u201corder and discipline\u201d into the area.[83] The manele, their modern music style, was prohibited in some cities of Romania in public transport[84] and taxis, [85][86] that action being justified by bus and taxi companies as being for passengers\u2019 comfort and a neutral ambience, acceptable for all passengers. However, those actions had been characterised by Speranta Radulescu, a professor of ethno-musicology at the Bucharest Conservatory, as \u201ca defect of Romanian society\u201d.[87] There were also a few criticisms of Professor Dr. Ioan Bradu Iamandescu\u2019s experimental study, which linked the listening of \u201cmanele\u201d to an increased level of aggressiveness and low self-control and suggested a correlation between preference for that music style and low cognitive skills.[88][89] Slovakia[edit] Three Slovakian Romani women have come before the European Court of Human Rights on grounds of having been forcefully sterilised in Slovakian hospitals.The sterilisations were performed by tubal ligation, after the women gave birth by Caesarean section. The court awarded two of the women costs and damages, while the third case was dismissed due to the woman\u2019s death.[90] A report by the Center for Reproductive Rights and the Centre for Civil and Human Rights has compiled more than 100 cases of Roma women in Slovakia who have been sterilised without their informed consent.[91] United Kingdom[edit] In 2008 the media reported that Gypsies experience a higher degree of racism than any other group in the UK, including asylum-seekers. A Mori poll indicated that a third of UK residents admitted openly to being prejudiced against Gypsies.[92] However, thousands of retrospective planning permissions are granted in Britain in cases involving non-Romani applicants each year, and that statistics showed that 90% of planning applications by Romanis and travellers were initially refused by local councils, compared with a national average of 20% for other applicants, disproving claims of preferential treatment favouring Romanis.[93] Travellers argued that the root of the problem was that many traditional stopping-places had been barricaded off and that legislation passed by the previous Conservative government had effectively criminalised their community. For example, by removing local authorities\u2019 responsibility to provide sites, which leaves the travellers with no option but to purchase unregistered new sites themselves.[94] In August 2012, Slovakian television network TV JOJ ran a report about cases of Romani immigrant families with Slovakian or Czech citizenship, whose children were forcibly taken away by the British authorities. This has sparked Romani protests in towns such as Nottingham. The authorities refused to explain the reasons for their actions to the Slovak reporters. One of the mothers alleged that she was only allowed visitation with her newborn baby in an empty room; as there was no furniture, she was forced to change her baby\u2019s diapers on the floor, which was reflected negatively in a social workers\u2019 report. Then when she would not change the diapers on a subsequent occasion following this experience, failure to change them was reflected negatively in the report as well. TV JOJ also alleged that in another case a biological mother suffered a nervous breakdown due to her children being taken away, this was seen as proof that she was not able to take care for them and they were then put up for adoption.[95] The problem was further escalated after reports that some Slovak children would be put up for adoption either in the UK or elsewhere, especially after a British court rejected the request of a grandmother, living in Slovakia, for legal custody of her grandchildren.[96] This dispute has sparked protests in front of the British embassy in Bratislava, with protesters holding signs such as \u201cBritain \u2013 Thief of Children\u201d and \u201cStop Legal Kidnappers\u201d.[97] According to Slovak media, over 30 Romani children were taken from their parents in Britain. The Slovak government voiced its \u201cserious concern\u201d over the readiness of British authorities to remove children from their \u201cbiological parents\u201d for \u201cno sound reason\u201d and further stated its readiness to challenge the policy in front of the European Court of Human Rights.[98] England[edit] In 2002 Conservative Party politician, and Member of Parliament (MP) for Bracknell Andrew MacKay stated in a House of Commons debate on unauthorised encampments of Gypsies and other Travelling groups in the UK that \u201cThey [Gypsies and Travellers] are scum, and I use the word advisedly. People who do what these people have done do not deserve the same human rights as my decent constituents going about their ordinary lives\u201d.[99][100] MacKay subsequently left politics in 2010.[101] In 2005 Doncaster Borough Council discussed in chamber a Review of Gypsy and Traveller Needs[102] and concluded that Gypsies and Irish Travellers are among the most vulnerable and marginalised ethnic minority groups in Britain.[103][104] A Gypsy and Traveller support centre in Leeds, West Yorkshire, was vandalised in April 2011 in what the police suspect was a hate-crime. The fire caused substantial damage to a centre that is used as a base for the support and education of gypsies and travellers in the community.[105] Scotland[edit] The Equal Opportunities Committee of the Scottish Parliament in 2001[106] and in 2009[107] confirmed that widespread marginalisation and discrimination persists in Scottish society against gypsy and traveller groups. A 2009 survey conducted by the Scottish Government also concludes that Scottish gypsy and travellers had been largely ignored in official policies. A similar survey in 2006 found discriminatory attitudes in Scotland towards gypsies and travellers, [108] and showed 37 per cent of those questioned would be unhappy if a relative married a gypsy or traveller. While 48 per cent found it unacceptable if a member of the gypsy or traveller minorities became primary school teachers.[108] A report by the University of the West of Scotland found that both the Scottish and UK governments had failed to safeguard the rights of the Roma as a recognized ethnic group and did not raise awareness of Roma rights within the UK.[109] Additionally, an Amnesty International report published in 2012 stated that Gypsy Traveller groups in Scotland routinely suffer widespread discrimination in society, [110] as well as a disproportionate level of scrutiny in the media.[111][112] Over a four-month period as a sample 48 per cent of articles showed Gypsy Travellers in a negative light, while 25\u201328 per cent of articles were favourable, or of a neutral viewpoint.[110] Amnesty recommended journalists adhere to ethical codes of conduct when reporting on Gypsy Traveller populations in Scotland, as these groups face fundamental human rights concerns \u2013 particularly with regards to health, education, housing, family life and culture.[110] To tackle the widespread prejudices and needs of Gypsy/Traveller minorities, in 2011 the Scottish Government set up a working party to consider how best to improve community relations between Gypsies/Travellers and Scottish society.[113] Including young Gypsies/Travellers to engage in an on-line positive messages campaign, contain factually correct information on their communities.[114] Wales[edit] In 2007 a study by the newly formed Equality for Human Rights Commission found that negative attitudes and prejudice persists against Gypsy/Traveller communities in Wales.[115] Results showed that 38 per cent of those questioned would not accept a long-term relationship with, or would be unhappy if a close relative married or formed a relationship with, a Gypsy Traveller. Furthermore, only 37 per cent found it acceptable if a member of the Gypsy Traveller minorities became primary school teachers, the lowest score of any group.[115] An advertising campaign to tackle prejudice in Wales was launched by the Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) in 2008.[116] Northern Ireland[edit] In June 2009, having had their windows broken and deaths threats made against them, twenty Romanian Romani families were forced from their homes in Lisburn Road, Belfast, in Northern Ireland. Up to 115 people, including women and children, were forced to seek refuge in a local church hall after being attacked. They were later moved by the authorities to a safer location.[117] An anti-racist rally in the city on 15 June to support Romani rights was attacked by youths chanting neo-Nazi slogans. The attacks were condemned by Amnesty International[118] and political leaders from both the Unionist and Nationalist traditions in Northern Ireland.[119][120] Following the arrest of three local youths in relation to the attacks, the church where the Romanis had been given shelter was badly vandalised. Using \u2019emergency funds\u2019, Northern Ireland authorities assisted most of the victims to return to Romania.[121][122] Non-EU countries[edit] Kosovo[edit] From the end of the Kosovo War in June 1999, about 80% of Kosovo\u2019s Romanis were expelled, amounting to approximately 100,000 expellees.[123]:82 For the 1999\u20132006 period, the European Roma Rights Centre documented numerous crimes perpetrated by Kosovo\u2019s ethnic Albanians with the purpose to purge the region of its Romani population along with other non-Albanian ethnic communities. These crimes included murder, abduction and illegal detention, torture, rape, arson, confiscation of houses and other property, and forced labour. Whole Romani settlements were burned to the ground by Albanians.[123]:82 Romanis remaining in Kosovo are reported to be systematically denied fundamental human rights. They \u201clive in a state of pervasive fear\u201d,[123]:83 being routinely intimidated, verbally harassed, and periodically attacked on racist grounds by Albanians.[123]:83 The Romani community of Kosovo is regarded to be for the most part annihilated.[123]:93 At UN internally displaced persons\u2019 camps in Kosovo for Romanis, the refugees were exposed to lead poisoning.[124] Norway[edit] In Norway, many Romani people were forcibly sterilized by the state until 1977.[125][126] Antiziganism in Norway flared up in July 2012 when roughly 200 Romani people settled outside Sofienberg church in Oslo and were later relocated to a building site at \u00c5rvoll, in northern Oslo. The group was subjected to hate crimes in the form of stone throwing and fireworks being aimed at, and fired into their camp. They, and Norwegians trying to assist them in their situation, also received death threats.[127] Siv Jensen, the leader of the right-wing Progress Party, also advocated the expulsion of the Romani people resident in Oslo.[128] Switzerland[edit] A Swiss right-wing magazine Weltwoche, published a photograph of a gun-wielding Roma child on its cover in 2012 with the title \u201cThe Roma are coming: Plundering in Switzerland\u201d.They claimed in a series of articles of a growing trend in the country of \u201ccriminal tourism for which eastern European Roma clans are responsible\u201d with professional gangs specializing in burglary, thefts, organized begging and street prostitution.[129] The magazine immediately came under criticism with its links to the right-wing populist People\u2019s Party (SVP), as being deliberately provocative and encouraged racist stereotyping by linking ethnic origin and criminality.[129] Switzerland\u2019s Federal Commission against Racism is considering legal action after complaints in Switzerland, Austria and Germany that the cover breached anti-racism laws.\nThe Berlin newspaper Tagesspiegel investigated the origins of the photograph taken in the slums of Gjakova, Kosovo, where Roma communities were displaced during the Kosovo War to hovels built on a toxic landfill.[130] The Italian photographer Livio Mancini, denounced the abuse of his photograph which was originally taken to demonstrate the plight of Roma families in Europe.[131] Environmental struggles[edit] This section needs additional citations for verification.

(December 2012) Environmental issues caused by Cold War-era industrial development have disproportionately impacted upon the Roma, particularly in Eastern Europe. Due to the traditional nomadic lifestyle of the Roma, the people most often settle on the outskirts of towns and cities, where amenities, employment and educational opportunities are often inaccessible. As of 1993, Hungary has been identified as one country where this issue exists: \u201cWhile the economic restructuring of a command economy into a western style market economy created hardships for most Hungarians, with the national unemployment rate heading toward 14 percent and per capita real income falling, the burdens imposed on Romanis are disproportionately great.\u201d[132] Panel buildings (panel\u00e1k) in Chanov ghetto near Most, Czech Republic were built in the 1970s for a high-income clientele, authorities introduced a model plan, whereby Roma were relocated to these buildings, from poorer areas, to live among Czech neighbours. However, with the rising proportion of Roma moving in, the Czech clients gradually moved out in a kind of white flight, eventually leaving a district in which the vast majority of residents were Roma.[133] A poll in 2007 marked the district as the worst place in the \u00dast\u00ed nad Labem Region.[133] Buildings were eventually stripped of any valuable materials and torn down. The removal of materials was blamed on the Roma who had last inhabited the building.[134] Despite a total rental debt in excess of \u20ac3.5 million, all of the tenants in the remaining buildings continue to be provided with water and electricity, [135] unlike the situation in many other European countries.\nRoma settlement Lun\u00edk IX near Ko\u0161ice, Slovakia.\nWhen newly built in the 1980s, some flats in this settlement were assigned to Roma who had relocated from poverty-stricken locations in a government effort to integrate the Roma population-other flats were assigned to families of military and law-enforcement personnel. However, the military and police families gradually moved out of the residences and the living conditions for the Roma population deteriorated. Ongoing failures to pay bills led to the disconnection of the water supply and an emergency plan was eventually created to provide running water for two hours per day to mitigate against the bill payment issue. Similarly to Chanov, some of these buildings were stripped of their materials and were eventually torn down-again, the Roma residents were identified as the culprits of the material theft.[136][137][138][139] The various legal hindrances to their traditional nomadic lifestyle have forced many travelling Roma into unsafe areas, such as ex-industrial areas, former landfills or other waste areas where pollutants have affected rivers, streams or groundwater. Consequently, Roma are often unable to access clean water or sanitation facilities, rendering the Roma people more vulnerable to health problems, such as diseases. Based in Belgium, the Health & Environment Alliance has included a statement in relation to the Roma on one of its pamphlets: \u201cDenied environmental benefits such as water, sewage treatment facilities, sanitation and access to natural resources, and suffer from exposure to environmental hazards due to their proximity to hazardous waste sites, incinerators, factories, and other sources of pollution.\u201d[140] Since the fall of communism and privatization of formerly state owned water-supply companies in many areas of central and eastern Europe, the provision of decent running water to illegal buildings Roma often occupy, became a particular issue, as the new international owners of the water-supply companies are unwilling to make contracts with Roma population and \u201cwater-borne diseases, such as diarrhoea and dysentery\u201d became \u201can almost constant feature of daily life, especially for children\u201d.According to a study by the United Nations Development Program, the percentage of Roma with access to running water and sewage treatment within Romania and the Czech Republic is well below the average in those countries. Consequently, a proliferation of skin diseases among these populations, due to the low quality of housing standards, including scabies, pediculosis, pyodermatitis, mycosis and askaridosis, has occurred; respiratory health problems also affect the majority of the inhabitants of these areas, in addition to increasing rates of hepatitis and tuberculosis.[citation needed] Additionally, the permanent settlement of Roma in residential areas is often met with either hostility by non-Roma or the exodus of non-Roma, similar to the \u201cwhite flight\u201d phenomenon in the United States.[141] Moreover, local councils have issued bans against Roma and Roma people are frequently evicted.[citation needed] Antiziganism in popular culture[edit] Sacha Baron Cohen\u2019s 2006 mockumentary Borat satirizes antiziganist beliefs in Eastern Europe and former Soviet States. Baron Cohen plays the eponymous Borat Sagdiyev, a backward and buffoonish journalist who displays extreme intolerance and hostility towards Jews, homosexuals, and Roma. When the character describes his fictitious home town, Baron Cohen, who is himself Jewish, explains that \u201cthey have a tall fence for keeping out Gypsies and Jews\u201d; ironically, the scene featuring this backwards and intolerant town was filmed in Glod, a Roma village in central Romania. Though some have criticized the film for going too far, Borat is still one of the most visible statements against antiziganism in popular culture.\nThe Adventures of Tintin comic The Castafiore Emerald criticises antiziganism. After Captain Haddock invites a group of Roma to move onto his property, they are falsely accused of stealing Bianca Castafiore\u2019s priceless emerald. Tintin objects to other characters who express their suspicion and uncovers the real culprit to have been a magpie.\nIn several adaptations of Victor Hugo\u2019s The Hunchback of Notre Dame, Claude Frollo is portrayed as having a strong, genocidal hatred of gypsies, although this characteristic is not so evident in the original novel.\nhe world was shocked by Italian sunbathers ignoring dead gipsy girls\u2026 But now Italy is showing a chilling interest in Roma children\nIt was the week\u2019s most shocking picture: gipsy girls dead on a beach ignored by sunbathers\u2026 Now there is more chilling evidence of how Italy\u2019s brutal crackdown on the Roma has sick echoes of the country\u2019s fascist past.\nShe looks like any teenager the world over. Wearing a denim skirt, pink designer T-shirt, and with long hair tied back from her face, Samantha is a child who would make any parent proud.\nYet just a few days ago, this bubbly 14-year-old found herself taking part in an excercise that would seem unthinkable in a modern, civilised European country.\nShe was ordered to line up at the local community hall near her home in Naples, Italy, and dab her right forefinger in black ink before placing it on a government census form.\nThe bodies of Cristina, 12, and Viola, 11, were left on the sand after they drowned in rough seas as holidaymakers carry on sunbathing nearby\nSamantha was photographed and given an identity code \u2013 F43 \u2013 as officials asked for her full name, address, age, religion and where she was born.\nMost controversially of all, she was told to state her ethnic background.\nEvery detail, including the fact that her parents are immigrant Roma gipsies from Serbia, was catalogued and put on a national computer system.\nShe was mortified. Her eyes bright with anger, Samantha said she felt like a villain in the only country she has ever known.\n\u2018That same day, the Italian kids started calling me \u201cgyppo\u201d in the streets.\nThey pointed at me and laughed. I felt like shouting back and saying: \u2018I am Italian just like you. I was born here too.\n\u2018But I didn\u2019t dare, in case I started a riot.\u2019\nMembers of the Red Cross carry out health checks on a Roma woman and her baby in one of the illegal camps on the outskirts of Rome\nSamantha was taking part in a compulsory new census of Italy\u2019s 160,000 Roma people, promised by the inflammatory Right-wing premier Silvio Berlusconi in the run-up to his successful election this spring.\nAnyone with a sense of the past would be forgiven for a strong feeling of foreboding about what is happening.\nThousands of migrants, many of them Roma gipsies from the old communist bloc and racially troubled Balkans, have poured into the country since the dismantling of border controls across a greatly expanded European Union in 2004.\nThe huge diaspora was political good fortune for 73-year-old Berlusconi.\nIn a country where fascism under dictator Benito Mussolini thrived until the end of World War II, Berlusconi warned of a \u2018Roma emergency\u2019 in big cities and produced a dossier of dubious figures alleging foreigners were involved in half of Italy\u2019s attempted murders, muggings and robberies.\nThe interior minister went further. Roberto Maroni, a leader of the anti-immigrant Northern League aligned with Berlusconi\u2019s nationalist Forza Italia party, claimed the controversial census and fingerprinting was essential to discover \u2018who is entitled to be here and who is not\u2019.\nIt would stop anonymous armies of Roma children being sent out begging or stealing by their families, 60 per cent of whom have no identity papers or passports, he claimed.\nGipsy people with the right to stay would be re-housed in \u2018decent conditions rather than with rats\u2019. The remainder, Maroni made clear, could expect deportation.\nA Red Cross worker takes health information on a Roma woman. The Italian government\u2019s plans to fingerprint Roma people has attracted international criticism\nMany observers, including the Roman Catholic Church, the United Nations, Roma and Jewish leaders, condemned Berlusconi\u2019s actions. Comparisons were made with the Nazi registration of Jews and gipsies introduced by Adolf Hitler with the support of Mussolini.\nOnly this week, the Italian parliament authorised six-year prison sentences for immigrants who lie about their identity, and instigated the deportation of foreigners who have been given any prison sentence of two years or more.\nFor the first time, simply living in Italy illegally is punishable by up to four years in prison.\nBut where will Berlusconi stop? Italy\u2019s pledge to the EU that the census would not include a question about ethnicity has been blatantly breached, even for children such as Samantha.\nWhile fingerprinting children under 14 has been abandoned (they are photographed instead) following international disquiet, there are now whisperings that gipsy camps not sanctioned by the authorities \u2013 and there are 50 of these in Rome alone \u2013 will be destroyed by the authorities.\nBorder controls are expected to be reintroduced to staunch the flow of migrants from Italy\u2019s neighbours.\nNo wonder there is a growing sense of unease at the huge \u2013 and illegal \u2013 Rotunda gipsy camp in Naples, where Samantha Jevremovic underwent fingerprinting.\nShe lives there with her parents, two younger brothers and a toddler sister in a small white wooden hut.\nThe family share one bedroom and eat at a table outside, whatever the weather.\nSamantha goes to school and hopes to train as a hairdresser. Her 32-year-old mother and itinerant metalworker father, 33, have no citizenship in Italy or anywhere else.\nOn the census form they declared themselves \u2018Ethnic Serbs\u2019, who slipped into the country illegally in 1993, just before their eldest daughter was born.\nHer mother, Dani, says: \u2018We didn\u2019t want to co-operate. We are afraid.\n\u2018But we hope by giving the information it will stop us being thrown out of Italy, which our children think of as home.\u2019\nThe camp has 700 residents and was first established 25 years ago. It\u2019s the size of a sprawling village under a four-lane expressway to the north of the city.\nBy any standards, it is a shabby place where potholes are filled with fetid water, toddlers run half-naked chased by cats around the alleys, and burnt-out cars outnumber brick houses.\nMost of the residents live in corrugated shacks without either a tap or a lavatory, with only a towel or a duvet pinned up to serve as a front door.\nHere, only two-thirds of the 300 children go to school, a pink-roofed building nearby. Their parents say they are afraid to send them because the appalling facilities in the camp mean they cannot wash the boys and girls each day.\n\u2018They are scared that the Italian pupils will jeer at their dirty sons and daughters,\u2019 explains 48-year-old Nihad Sajovic, one of the gipsy elders.\n\u2018Would you send your child to class if that was going to happen?\u2019\nAt a table in the community hall, where the census took place, he added: \u2018No one can imagine our situation during the past few months.\n\u2018There is a witch-hunt under way and people now believe that we are the only ones who commit crimes in Italy.\n\u2018It is not easy for us. There have been incriminations and accusations against our community. We no longer know what the future holds.\n\u2018We want to put down roots; we want to stop fleeing because our people have been doing that since the War began in 1939.\n\u2018At the end, the Jews were given money and a new land. We still have nothing.\u2019\nExtraordinarily, the Red Cross of Italy has been persuaded by Berlusconi to help count gipsy heads and gather data on hundreds of families at 70 camps in Rome, an operation that will last until September.\nMassimo Barra, the charity\u2019s president, this week visited one pitiful group of gipsies who have been living under a dripping railway arch near international Leonardo Da Vinci airport for six years.\nIt can be reached only by a perilous walk along the main railway line between central Rome and the air terminus, then down a narrow gully.\nOn the brick walls hang a few pots and pans. Tents take up most of the floor space.\nThere is an acrid smell, and at night the rats come out. Surely this can\u2019t be better than living in Romania, from where the 15 gipsies and their children had fled?\n\u2018Yes it is,\u2019 said Maria, mother of six. \u2018There, we were accused and persecuted for being gipsies.\n\u2018Up to now, we have lived in Italy in peace.\u2019\nThe Red Cross\u2019s Mr Barra said: \u2018We know that people are pointing and saying that this is reminiscent of the Nazis. But that is collective paranoia.\n\u2018We want to get these children vaccinated, give them health checks and medical cards.\n\u2018That is all this census is about. We are building bridges and not walls.\u2019\nWhatever the truth of this, Italy\u2019s history cannot be forgotten. It was as early as 1926 that Mussolini first expelled gipsies, calling them \u2018sub humans\u2019.\nIt is thought that in the next 20 years, more than one million Roma people were killed in the extermination camps of Europe, alongside the Jews.\nThe current wave of Italian xenophobia was given new impetus last November when an Italian admiral\u2019s wife, a religious education teacher, was beaten with a rock in a sex attack by a Romanian migrant.\nDreadfully injured, she was dumped in a ditch in a suburb of northern Rome. She died two days later and suspect Nicolae Mailat, 24, from Transylvania, was arrested in a nearby gipsy camp.",

Awareness is necessary when it comes to all diseases, especially rare or misunderstood ones, as it promotes understanding and acceptance over ignorance. The first 4 conditions on our list are:\nThis parasitic disease is caused by the filarial worm, which is most often transmitted to humans by carrier mosquitoes. It causes the lymphatic system to become blocked, leading to immense swelling of the limbs and sometimes other parts of the body such as the genitals. The disease is sometimes accompanied by feelings of general malaise. Elephantiasis affects approximately 120 million people worldwide, but luckily there is a medication that can kill the worms which usually helps resolve the condition.\nMusicogenic Epilepsy\nA few unlucky people across the United States are afflicted by an unique epileptic condition whereby focal seizures are primarily triggered by playing or listening to music. Research suggests the music may induce a reaction from the mesial temporal and orbitofrontal areas of the brain, triggering seizures.\nThis debilitating genetic condition gradually deforms and disables the body by growing excess bone through the muscles, ligaments, tendons and other tissues, virtually encasing the body in a second skeleton. There is no known cure or treatment for this mystifying condition. Surgical attempts to fix the growths have made cases worse, as it was discovered that the trauma of surgery causes more bone growth in response. Luckily, it is a very rare condition with only 265 confirmed cases in the United States.\nMedically known as Naegleria fowleri, these microscopic amoebas are responsible for a handful of deaths each summer, most of which take place in the southern states. N. fowleri are found in untreated sources of warm freshwater such as lakes, rivers, untreated pools, puddles, ponds, hot springs, aquariums or untreated tap water. They enter through the nose and travel to the brain, causing a disease called primary amoebic meningoencephalitis (PAM). Cases of PAM are rare but almost always fatal, with only 3 survivors out of more than 130 cases since the 1960\u2019s.\nThat concludes our look at the first few rare and astounding medical conditions, keep an eye out for 4 more coming up next. Thanks for visiting DocChat, stay happy and healthy!",

        "title": "A Burning Question: Why So Many Mill Fires? | archaeologyuos",
        "raw_content": "archaeologyuos / 11 February 2017\nDrummond Mills in Manningham, Bradford. The first mill to fall victim to fire in 2016.\n2016 seems to have been a particularly bad year for fires in the historic textile mills of northern England. The year started with the destruction of Drummond Mill in Manningham in Bradford, in January. This was followed by a series of mill fires in Greater Manchester, most notably the destruction of Bailey Mill in Saddleworth in June. The empty Newsome Mill, in Huddersfield was burnt down in suspicious circumstances on November 18 2016 as was Howard Mill in Glossop, Derbyshire, that month. The year finished with a devastating fire at Maple Mill No. 1, in Oldham, on 15 December 2016, which destroyed the structure. This has now been confirmed as arson by Greater Manchester Police. These fires all have two things in common. The structures were large and empty cotton or spinning mill blocks, and all the fires appear to have the result of arson.\nTextile mill design developed in part to reduce the risk of fire from the grease, oil and fibers that covered each mill floor. This can be seen in the shift from wooden floors supported by wooden beams to brick-barrel vaulting supported by cast-iron columns and then steel frame and concrete construction. Even so, no mill is absolutely fire-proof. Although the building materials used may themselves not be flamable a hot enough fire will affect the structure and ultimately bring it down. Cast iron will fail catastrophically, particularly if cold water is played on it when hot, whilst steel will ultimately distort under high heat. Even brick arches will fail if intense heat loosens the bricks.\nHistorically, catastrophic mill fires were not uncommon in the working mills of Derbyshire, Dundee, Glasgow, Lancashire, and Yorkshire. Vernon Mill in Stockport burnt down in 1902, as did Ellenroad mill in 1916. Both fires were found to have been started by friction in the spinning mule headstocks. Fires in working mills continued into the mid-20th century despite new fire regulations: spectacularly so at Clover Mill in Rochdale in 1952, Texas Mill in Ashton-under-Lyne in 1971, and at Thorp Street Silk Mill in Macclesfield in 1977. In the late 20th century, as most cotton, jute, linen, silk and woollen mills were closed, there was an increasing trend for fires in empty factories. Dramatic examples include Tudor Mill in Ashton-under-Lyne (1970), Banksfield Mill in Bolton in 1984, Granville Mill in Oldham in 1999. This trend has continued into the early 21st century, with the loss of several listed early textile mills at Clegg Hall Mill in Rochdale in 2003, Paton\u2019s Mill in Jonhston, Renfrewshire, in 2010 and Frost\u2019s Mill in Macclesfield in 2011.\nThe aftermath of the fire at Milnrow Mill, Rochdale, in 1992.\nWhat is worrying has been the rising number of arson attacks in the last few years. A recent freedom of information request to the West Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service revealed that there were 103 mill fires in the Bradford area over a six year period between April 2010 and September 2016. 58 were found to be arson attacks, of which 36 were in mills classified as derelict or empty. Some of these fires can be attributed to rough sleepers lighting afire to keep warm but others are deliberate attempts to burn the structure.\nSimilar figures are not available for Greater Manchester, though the Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Services\u2019 website notes at least 28 major mill incidents between 2010 and 2016. Several empty mills have become a focus for repeated arson, such as Elisabeth Mill in Stockport (now renovated), the derelict Gidlow Mill in Wigan, and Maple No. 1 Mill in Oldham. The latter appears to have had six arson incidents in 2016 which culminated in the destructive fire of December 2016.\nThere remain two stark facts that threaten much of our textile mill heritage across Britain. Firstly, that the huge block spinning mills of the late 19th century, which can be seen in the Greater Manchester, Lancashire and West Yorkshire urban landscapes, are still perceived by some councils and developers as difficult to re-use. The second is that empty industrial buildings attract vandalism leaving them open to constant small-scale arson incidents that can lead to catastrophic fires. This is why Historic England have been working with the all five fire and rescue services in North West England to compile advice and create an \u2018Arson Risk Reduction\u2019 leaflet for Heritage at Risk across the whole region and due for release this spring. This work has shown that the best way to reduce fire attacks is to keep textile mills occupied, the sprinkler systems maintained, and to reduce the time such structures are empty ahead of redevelopment: simple steps that could help to save more of these important industrial monuments.\n[This is a longer version of the article I wrote for the CBA Newsletter, Issue 39 for Feb to June 2017).\n11 February 2017 in Heritage Protection, industrial archaeology. Tags: arson\nSaving the Industrial Past: A Burning Issue\n\u2190 Salford\u2019s Early Past Pt 5: Roman Rural Settlement\nSalford\u2019s Early Past Pt6 \u2013 Roman Hoards & Burials \u2192\n2 thoughts on \u201cA Burning Question: Why So Many Mill Fires?\u201d\nJohn Burlison says:\nIts wonderful to read this biographic study of the cotton mills, particularly the Lancashire mills, but who\u2019s brave enough to take on the responsibility of their upkeep. Oldham Council who went through with a compulsory purchase order with the Hartford Mill at Werneth, pulled out because of its liabilities.\nOldham Council also owned the listed Park Road warehouse, and yes it was badly neglected where on a Friday afternoon it was declared safe by structural engineers, by the following Monday strangely it was declared unsafe, and demolished very quickly with Council official\u2019s present throughout its demolition.\nHistoric England, English Heritage, whatever, is not fit for purpose, its brilliant listing these mills, but once listed the constraints on what you can, or cannot do are ridiculous, so the owners just let them go into dilapidation until its beyond repair, this is the current situation with the Hartford Mill.\nUntil there is a change in the listing constraints, Northern England\u2019s heritage will carry on decaying, and in the years ahead we will have nothing to show our children\u2019s children.\nPeter Iles says:\nI\u2019m not sure that the real issue is the constraints caused by Listing. The majority of such industrial sites are not actually Listed and mills are difficult to get Listed (particularly when compared to churches, country houses and the like). I feel that it is more likely that developers and their bankers/funders just don\u2019t have the vision to see their potential and to \u2018risk\u2019 investment in a mill conversion scheme when knocking them down and putting up ticky-tacky identikit boxes is a tried and tested method of making money.\nCould it be that, as a mill is effectively a single unit which needs a complete scheme of works to be undertaken, that it is unattractive to investors who can phase construction (and thus funding) of an equivalent-sized housing scheme and see much quicker returns for some of their money? This could mean that these sites are not of interest to the mass house-builders, and only appeal to those willing to invest in bigger schemes, such as the proposed multi-storey towers for Manchester City Centre. Unfortunately this is often \u2018outside money\u2019 and not especially concerned with heritage issues.\nIt can be done, and it can be done successfully \u2013 HE has sponsored research showing that renovated historic structures provide greater rents/profits and have a lower vacancy rate than equivalent modern buildings.\nAnd that is not to start on the issue of embedded energy/resources/capital in the extant building, disposing of demolition debris and sourcing new building materials \u2026 I have just read a BBC article about mass theft of sand from beaches \u2013 made economic by shortages of legitimate materials for city development.",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb The Faroe Islands\nIn our Faroe Islands Photography Workshops, we will be shooting the many multicoloured cottages and grass-roofed wooden churches that the islands are known for. We will capture mind-blowing mountains, cascading waterfalls, soaring sea cliffs, charismatic seabirds such as Puffins & Gannets, lighthouses, deep fjords and pastoral fishing communities.\nThe Faroe or Faeroe Islands are 18 islands in the middle of the Gulf Stream in the North Atlantic at 62\u00ba00\u2019N and 06\u00ba47\u2019W, halfway between Scotland and Iceland. The islands were first settled in year 300 AD, although no one knows by whom. The first known settlers, according to stories passed down through generations, were Irish monks in the sixth century.\nThe Islands are a self-governing island territory of Denmark and have a population of nearly 50,000. The name the Faroe Islands first appeared as F\u00e6reyjar (in approximately 1225), which means \u201cSheep Islands\u201d. This presumably led to the national symbol, which is a ram. This name was given by the Viking age settlers from Norway in the ninth century. The capital of the Faroe Islands is Torshavn.\nSince 1948, the Faroe Islands have been a self-governing nation under the external sovereignty of the Kingdom of Denmark. This means the islands have exclusive competence to legislate and govern independently within a wide range of areas, such as trade, taxation, social security and education. The Faroe Islands is not a member of the European Union, even though Denmark is.\nWhen visiting the Faroes you are never more than 5km (3 miles) away from the ocean. The countryside is dominated by steep mountains and there are about 70,000 sheep and some 2 million pairs of seabirds, including the largest colony of storm petrels in the world. The Faroe Islands are undeniably beautiful: green, rugged and wind-swept.\nFaroe Islands Landscape\nWith their volcanic origin, the 18 islands are rugged and rocky they are a perfect place for landscape photo tours. The average height above sea level for the country is 300m (982 ft). The highest peak, Sl\u00e6ttaratindur, is 882m (2883 ft) above sea level. There are 1100km (687 mi) of coastline and no point is more than 5km (3 mi) away from the ocean. Mountains and valleys mostly characterise the inner landscape.\nThe Faroese west coast is characterised by steep slopes and bird cliffs, that in the summertime are full of nesting seabirds such as puffins. Something that first meets the eye of a traveller is the lack of trees in the Faroes. The reason for this is the thousands of sheep that occupy the islands.\nThe weather is maritime and quite unpredictable. It can change quickly and it varies extremely, from moments of brilliant sunshine to misty hill fog, to showers \u2013 there can be the sunshine on one side of the mountain range, while it\u2019s raining on the other side. During the summer the islands are often overcast by summer fog. The average temperature ranges from 3\u00b0C in the wintertime to 11\u00b0C during the summer, the temperature can be much higher, but the air is always fresh and clean no matter the season.",

        "raw_content": "Earley travels to Haiti, helps children in orphanage\nSophomore Lauren Earley (left) traveled to Haiti for the second time to volunteer at an orphanage.\nSubmitted Lauren Early\nKaylin Blair, Staff Writer\nSophomore Lauren Earley finds happiness in helping others during everyday activities, but traveling to Haiti in 2013 and 2016 and working with children in an orphanage was the perfect way for her to spread love and joy where it was needed the most.\nEarley went to Haiti to work at an orphanage in Les Cayes. There she spent her days helping to rebuild the lives of many children after the devastating earthquake on January 12, 2010.\nDuring the days at the orphanage, the children would be at school, and Earley would work on painting the base layer of a mural on the wall at the school. After school, Earley often did crafts with them.\n\u201cThey\u2019re lonely because they don\u2019t have a real family unit,\u201d Earley said. \u201cYou just want to make them feel special, so this time [in 2016] we brought down crowns and made princess crowns or painted the girls\u2019 nails. You just want to make them feel good for a while.\u201d\n\u201cThings sort of were like a tumbleweed,\u201d Earley said. \u201cYou do something little and it gets bigger and bigger.\u201d\nAs she worked with the children each day, Earley said it changed her life in a way that she will never forget. Each day she gained insight into what it really means to come together as a community and support each other.\n\u201cIt made me see the world in a different way and and how we\u2019re all made to take care of each other,\u201d Earley said. \u201cWhen I went down there, I wasn\u2019t only taking care of them. The girls had a weird sense of protectiveness over me.\u201d\nAlong with advising the children, Earley also received advice from them.\n\u201cI did things for them, but they really did more things for me than I did for them,\u201d Earley said.\nEarley\u2019s brother, Brendan, who is a freshman at Saint Anselm\u2019s College, traveled to Haiti with her in 2016. After going through this experience, he too had a new outlook on his life.\n\u201cIt motivated me to look at how blessed we are to have what we have in the United States,\u201d Brendan Earley said. \u201cAfter seeing the alternative to what there is outside the United States, it made me realize how important it is to preserve and defend all those great things we have.\u201d\nAlthough she does not have a specific time planned, Earley sees herself traveling back to Haiti in the near future.",

        "title": "The elephant in the playroom | Armloads of Blessings",
        "raw_content": "\u2190 The pain of childhood\nThe elephant in the playroom\nI started reading this book called \u201cThe Elephant in the Playroom\u201d. It is about the experiences of parents with special needs kids. Some of it is funny and some of it is heartbreaking, but all of it is encouraging. I find it so helpful to read stuff written by other parents with children who are \u201cspecial\u201d. Parenting a child who is \u201cdifferent\u201d is just not the same as it is to parent a child who is \u201cnormal\u201d. I have both types of kids and I can tell you there is a difference. It is WAY more challenging to parent a child with special needs. People seem to always equate a child\u2019s behavior with a parent\u2019s ability to be a good parent. With special needs kids, a lot of the time, you can try the same parenting tricks that worked on your \u201cnormal\u201d kids and those things do nothing for a special needs kid. You feel like you are a rookie parent and know nothing. And you feel like a failure as a parent sometimes because no matter how hard you try you cannot make your child behave. For example, Joshua has issues with impulsivity. He has recently been diagnosed with ADHD and that comes with the territory. The pediatrician explained to me that even if Joshua wants to behave his impulsivity will take over and he physically cannot keep himself from doing that thing you just said not to do. With typical children if you say \u201cno\u201d and punish them enough times, you usually get through on most things, but not a child with impulsivity issues. I tell him at least once a day not to turn on the water hose outside, and every day he does. It drives me nuts! But hearing that other families go through the same things with their children makes me feel better. I am not a bad parent because my child misbehaves, he has challenges that have nothing to do with me.\nFriday was a rough day. I was on my way to a developmental pediatrician appointment and the traffic was horrible. It took me an hour and 20 minutes when it should have taken me 30 min to get to the appointment. Needless to say I was late. Very late. At one point I called the doctor\u2019s office to tell them of my situation and the receptionist said I had 10 minutes to get there. I told her that was impossible and she said to hold for a minute. During the time I was on hold, I lost it. I was sure they were not going to let me see the doctor that day because I was so late. I NEEDED to see the doctor. I needed him to tell me what to do. Most of the time I feel at a loss for knowing what in the world I should do to get through to Joshua. I was literally sobbing on the phone with the poor receptionist when she told me I could see the doctor when I got there. The doctor was very helpful and told me I was doing all I could. Going to the developmental pediatrician is much like going to a pep talk for me. I tell him all my issues and he gives suggestions and tells me I am doing a good job and it\u2019s not my fault if my son does crazy stuff. It\u2019s a very different experience than a normal pediatrician appointment, but when you have special needs kids it\u2019s what you need. It\u2019s like a therapy session.\nWhen I left there it was past lunchtime and Joshua had only had a snack and I had nothing. We had to stop at the pharmacy on the way to pick up my other son from Grandma\u2019s. We got there and they didn\u2019t have the medication I needed, they said I would have to come in so they could call around to other pharmacies to find it. So, because I really needed this medication that day, I had to do it. I walked in with Joshua knowing this was not going to go well. Joshua started wanting to run around the store, so I had him by his hands and he is screaming and writhing around like a wild animal. People stared starring. I knew they were and I have gotten pretty good at ignoring them, but on this day I was trapped there and they were so openly giving me looks that said, \u201cdo something with that kid\u201d, and \u201d if you were a better parent he would act better\u201d. I finally picked Joshua up cradled him like a baby and started swaying with him. This worked, thank goodness, but then it became obvious to people that he was not an ordinary kid. It was then that they asked if he was okay and I said \u201cyes\u201d and they gave me the pity look. I hate that look. I am not sure which is worse, disapproval or pity. Finally, they found my meds and we could leave. I felt alone. I felt sad. I felt angry.\nIn reading this book I have realized that in having a child with special needs there are stages you go through. They are the five stages of grief. They are denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance. I realized that this is not an overnight thing. It can take years to go through these stages and get to acceptance of who your child is. Right now I will admit, I am in the anger stage. I am angry at the situation and the causes for his issues. But I am so glad to know I will get to acceptance someday, if I just keep on keeping on. I know that it might be shocking for some of you to hear we have struggles with our son and accepting his special needs and here we are adopting another child with special needs. People love to say to me, \u201chow are you going to do that?\u201d, and \u201cwhy would you do that?\u201d. I have to simply say that, first God led us to this and HE will supply all our needs in Christ Jesus, and that is not just physical needs, but emotional ones as well. And second, it is not all difficult, there are precious moments with our son everyday. I want to be honest though, because I feel like too many people paint rosy pictures of adoption and special needs and it\u2019s just not rosy all the time. Nothing is. It is hard. Parenting Joshua is one of the hardest things I have done. But it is worth it. It makes me appreciate small things, like him hugging me, which is a recent developement. It gives you perspective. And everything God calls us to is not easy, in fact most of it is not. But there are rewards, both in this life and in heaven. And that is what I push toward. I want to be honest about our experiences so that others can see what it is really like and so others who are going through it will not feel so alone.\n2 thoughts on \u201cThe elephant in the playroom\u201d\nWow. I need to get Jeremy to read this one. Our situation with Todd is nothing like your with Joshua but the feelings are still the same. Thanks for being open.\nRuth, you are an amazing mom! God\u2019s provisions are great! This special little boy is blessed to have you and one day you will see the fruit of your labor, commitment & sacrifices in the man he becomes! Keep on holding on!",

        "raw_content": "\u2190 Love like you\u2019ve never been hurt.\nAndrew\u2019s Story- Part 2 \u2192\nAndrew\u2019s Story- Part 1\nI decided to tell Andrew\u2019s story here. Andrew is our son, who was recently still born at 21 weeks. I want to remember him and also to share his story with those who would like to read it. Wednesday, September 28 was just like any other day for me. I got the kids ready for school and my mom came over to keep the kids who are home for me while I went to what I expected to be a routine midwife appointment. I was 21 weeks pregnant. We had done genetic testing and ultrasounds and everything looked great. Having had two miscarriages previously we were holding our breath until we got past 15 weeks, which is when we lost our first baby. After seeing Andrew flipping all around and just giving the ultrasound tech a hard time just a few weeks before this, I as thrilled that all was going well and we would meet our little guy in just a few months. I sat in the waiting room at the midwife and while I was there the receptionist took a phone call from a women saying she had just experienced a miscarriage. When the receptionist got off the phone, we chatted about how difficult that is and I shared my experiences. The midwife called me back and we checked Andrew\u2019s heartbeat. She couldn\u2019t find it. I wasn\u2019t worried because this had happened before in this pregnancy. My placenta was in front and he was so active that getting his heartbeat always proved to be a challenge. She suggested I go down the street to the OBGYN that they partner with for a quick ultrasound. I was a little nervous, but not overly. The office is in a medical tower and not but a couple blocks, so I decided it was easier to walk. On the way there God and I had a talk. I prayed and asked that everything be ok but I also told God His will be done. I had a peace about it all. I walked into the office and they took me to the ultrasound room. Almost immediately when she began the ultrasound I knew something wasn\u2019t right. He was so still. He was never still. She began doing measurements and he was measuring at 18 weeks, just a few days past when I had seen him on ultrasound before. I was in shock. I immediately started to cry. She was so kind and took me straight into the doctor\u2019s office so I didn\u2019t have to go back to the waiting room. I texted Glenn and my pastor\u2019s wife as soon as I got into the office. I waited for a while for the doctor to come in. He was also very compassionate and kind as he discussed possible causes and what we should do next. We decided that a delivery was the best course of action. By this time Glenn had arrived, and we talked at length with the doctor about everything. We left the doctor\u2019s office and the nurse said she would call with possible dates and times for the induction at the hospital.\nBy this time I was shaking because of stress and also having not eaten in a long time, so we went to Wendy\u2019s and ate. We then went home and Glenn had texted both our parents to let them know. When we got home, Glenn took the kids outside to tell them. That was one of the hardest things we have ever done. The older boys took it pretty hard. The nurse called and said the only opening they had was for later that night, so we prepared to leave just after putting the kids into bed. Glenn\u2019s parents stayed with the kids. We arrived at the hospital and found my best friend waiting in the waiting room for us. I have learned through this experience that you need people to just push into your life at times like this. My natural inclination is to just wall off from people and not talk, but that isn\u2019t healthy. We need people right now, more than we ever have. It was so comforting to have a familiar face as we went off to labor and delivery, a place we had been a couple times before, but for much happier occasions. The nurses were so kind and placed us in a room as far away from other people as possible. We settled in for a long night. They began to give me medicine to induce me. It really wasn\u2019t all that bad physically. By the morning, I was having regular contractions, but they weren\u2019t overly painful. The most difficult part was knowing what we were facing emotionally. Finally about 3:00 things started to pick up and he was born at 3:30pm. I sobbed as he was delivered and refused to look, afraid of what I would see. Then they had to deliver the placenta, I will spare the details but it didn\u2019t go well and was extremely painful. They got me cleaned up and asked if we wished to hold Andrew. We said we would like to, so they brought him to us. He was wrapped in a blanket and had a tiny hat on. God had prepared us for this moment. Six years before we had held a tiny baby Joshua in the NICU and that experience helped so much with holding Andrew. We both held him and took pictures and cried. It was a precious moment though and so healing. I am so glad we did it. We expressed to the hospital we would like to take him home with us and have a memorial service and burial here at home. No one had ever done that before, so it was a big deal. At the end of the day, we were released but had to leave Andrew there and pick him up the next day because they needed to do some testing. The nurses and doctor\u2019s were so kind to us. They gave us a memory box for Andrew with tiny blankets and little clothes and also pictures and footprints. I will treasure it always and I am so thankful to have it. We left the hospital and went home. We were so lost. It was the absolute hardest thing I had done ever in my life.\n6 thoughts on \u201cAndrew\u2019s Story- Part 1\u201d\nThank you for sharing. I am missing the little guy that I never got to hold.

        "raw_content": "Buffalo Songstress Curtis Lovell Celebrates Album Release At Babeville\nIf you were to take a hefty amount of artistic integrity, natural talent, creativity, consistency, family support and influence, and sheer determination, put all of it into a pot, and stir, you\u2019d come out with a combination that embodies the art of Curtis Lovell.\nCurtis Lovell is an artist born and raised in Buffalo New York, who writes and records music as if each musical piece is its own journal entry, and each performance is an opportunity to sing about what she knows. Influenced by the likes of Jill Scott, Nina Simone, Nat King Cole, and Patsy Cline, Curtis manages to form a new sound that signifies bravery, growth, and authenticity. Curtis Lovell began singing at the ripe age of 4 years old when her mother realized that her child had the gift of perfect pitch. Once she was entering high school, she began to take her hobby seriously as she pulled from her life experiences, wins, and losses, to find her signature sound and style.\n\u201cI\u2019ve lost as much as I\u2019ve gained\u201d\nAlthough Curtis Lovell has experienced many of life\u2019s tests, including the passing of her brother and writing partner, losing her best friend to suicide in 2013, and the passing of her nephew when she was 18 years of age, Curtis Lovell has continued to use the pain to grow as a person, influence her community, all while continuing to display her artistic abilities all over Western New York as a musician, actress, and speaker. She is actively involved with the Ujima Theater Company- which works to provide professional acting opportunities to performers, while preserving the essence of African American theater. She has been featured in productions such as \u201cFor Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide/ When the Rainbow Is Enuf\u201d, \u201cFree Fred Brown\u201d, and more! She has been a featured speaker for \u201cCreative Mornings\u201d, and has released a phenomenal independent album titled \u201cCicada Champagne\u201d which is currently available on Sound Cloud.\nWith the release of her new album on the horizons, and the continuing perfection of her craft, Curtis Lovell anticipates furthering her career as an independent artist who is concerned with maintaining her roots in Buffalo, continuing to gain self-knowledge, display unconditional love, bravery, authenticity, and maximizing her creativity, because to her \u201cfame is not the goal\u201d. Curtis would advise young artists who wish to embark on their own journey of self-discovery and artistry to believe in themselves and allow room for change. \u201cChange means you are becoming more of yourself. Also, trust your community. They are your soul supports and they will show up even if no one else does\u201d. Curtis Lovell is a force for good, an example of love, and a true and authentic artist.\nTransit and the Environment: Public Meeting\nThe Wrecks Announce Their Headlining \u201cPanic Vertigo Tour\u201d",

In March of 1870, 20-year-old Elizabeth sailed with her father out of Saint John on the 1444 ton full-rigged ship Rothesay.\n\"The Seafaring Maiden\"\nOn the fourth day out of New Orleans with a cargo of cotton for Liverpool, England, the first mate, and then nine days later Captain Hall, came down with smallpox. Sailing in squally weather, Captain Hall set storm canvas, placed Bessie in command and promoted the carpenter to first mate. Depending upon the basic navigational skills which she had learned from her father on previous voyages, Bessie and the depleted crew of six sailed across the Atlantic arriving in Liverpool on May 11.\nBessie received the respect and admiration of her crew for her accomplishment known to be unique in nautical history. Elizabeth Pritchard Hall died on June 30, 1930, but lives on in local legend as \"The Seafaring Maiden of Granville\".",

        "raw_content": "Like Craps, the Sic Bo table can also seem intimidating if you\u2019re new to the game or a casino environment. It\u2019s probably not a table that fresh players will head towards the first time they enter a casino.\nWay Beyond Asia Now\nBut, relax \u2014 because it\u2019s a really easy game to play. So simple, in fact, that you can learn it in just 2 minutes through this YouTube video. Some time back, this game was predominantly found in Asian casinos; nowadays, you\u2019ll see it just about everywhere. And for good reason: it makes the casinos great money while offering players the illusion of a favourable bet.\nThis illusion is a rather clever one. It\u2019s like one of those sneaky little things you don\u2019t notice until somebody points it out.\nDarn! Why didn\u2019t I see that?\nMost Bewildering Bet\nSic Bo literally translates to \u2018Precious Dice\u2019, and also commonly goes by the name \u2018Big Small\u2019. There are many bets you can choose to make at the table, as you would have seen in the video. And if you\u2019ve been religiously reading this blog, you should by now be able to calculate the odds and EV of those bets. However, the most confusing one happens to be the most basic bet of wagering on a single number.\nInitially, it seems like a fair bet to most people. That\u2019s because 3 dice are being rolled, and you can bet on any of the 6 numbers. If any of those 6 numbers appears on any of the 3 dice, you get paid 2:1. Logically speaking, you thus appear to have a 50:50 chance of hitting one number (3 dice versus 6 choices) and you get paid 100:50 (2:1). So it\u2019s all good, right? Nope \u2014 wrong.\nHere\u2019s The Math On Sic Bo Odds\nIf we were using just 1 dice, your odds of picking the right number would be 1 in 6. That means you\u2019ll probably get it wrong 5 out of 6 times. Using that same logic with 3 dice, the odds of your number not appearing on any of them would be:\n(5/6) x (5/6) x (5/6) = 125/216 = 0.5787 = almost 58%.\nThat\u2019s much lower than the 50:50 odds you had assumed earlier, isn\u2019t it? You\u2019re going to get it wrong 58% of the time, mate!\nLet\u2019s work out the rest of your odds:\nChances of hitting 1 number = (1/6) x (5/6) x (5/6) = 75/216 = 0.347 = 34.7%.\nChances of hitting 2 numbers = (1/6) x (1/6) x (5/6) = 15/216 = 0.0694 = 6.9%.\nChances of hitting all 3 numbers = (1/6) x (1/6) x (1/6) = 1/216 = 0.0046 = 0.46%.\nAnd the overall Expected Value of Sic Bo turns out to be:\n[(75/216)(1) + (15/216)(2) + (1/216)(3) + (125/216)(-1)] = -0.08.\nSmallest Bang For Your Buck\nIf you\u2019ve read my two other articles in the Casino Math Odds series on Roulette and Craps, you\u2019ll realise that Sic Bo gives you the lowest value of all three games. And it does this while cleverly hiding behind the facade of \u2018fair play\u2019. Sneaky, isn\u2019t it? Well, at least now you know. Good luck!\nImages: mammaoca2008, Max Sat",

We left Kanab to continue East on Hwy 89, and now we were skirting the southern edge of the Grand Staircase \u2013 Escalante National Monument. The giant \u201csteps\u201d that make up this area were now much easier to see.\nIn Big Water, UT, we stopped at another GSENM visitor center, this one dedicated to paleontology. Here we learned that this section of Utah was actually a coastal area when the dinosaurs were around. \u201cThis area was a beach?\u201d, I said to Olivia, \u201cMaybe that\u2019s why I am so drawn to it!\u201d\nThe black dot is where Utah used to be\nThe area around Big Water, specifically, had been on the bottom of the ocean, and we could see that across the highway, where grey tropic shale lay at the bottom of the rocks. Shale is only found on the ocean floor. Many dinosaur bones had been excavated there, including new species that were previously unknown. The guy working the visitor center, a paleontologist himself, had uncovered one.\nSome of these dinosaur species were excavated here, in Big Water\nHe opened up a National Geographic map that showed how the continents had moved over time. The Indian peninsula, for example, was a separate piece that was closer to the South Pole and when it drifted North, it slammed into what was then Eurasia and formed the Himalayas. The impact of that force is still present, pushing the Himalayas up by 9 cm each year. He also said that the Appalachian mountains, the oldest in the world, were once one mountain range as the mountains in Sweden. If you have a map handy, take a look, and you\u2019ll see how the Eastern US could have fit like a puzzle piece with Northern Europe. It was all very interesting, and it explained why similar dinosaur bones were found on what are now different continents. He also reminded us that the world was much warmer when dinosaurs were around; there were no ice caps. Olivia and I looked at each other and wondered why we hadn\u2019t learned any of this in school. \ud83d\ude42\nWe got back on the road and crossed into Arizona; since Arizona doesn\u2019t observe daylight savings time, we gained an hour back and we are now on the same time as LA, even though we are in the Mountain time zone. Confusing, right?\nJust a few miles down the road, we saw a sign for Wahweep overlook so we turned there. At the overlook, we were treated to amazing views of Lake Powell and North towards to the GSENM. The views were really pretty much all around us\u2026 this area is just so vast. Lake Powell\u2019s blue waters were striking against the orange and white rocks. Lake Powell is the largest man-made lake in the US. The Glen Canyon Dam, which we could see from the overlook, created this lake when it was built in 1963. The town of Page, which is right next to it, was established as part of the construction of the dam.\nAt Glen Canyon visitor center, which was just a few miles down the road from the overlook, we got to see the dam up close and learned more about water and the Colorado River. Lake Powell is now a major recreational area, with boating, kayaking and stand up paddle-boarding popular options to explore the Colorado and the canyons around it.\nWe got back on the road and crossed a brdige over the Colorado river, then headed south towards the trailhead to Horseshoe bend, the famous horseshoe-shaped rock shaped by the Colorado river.

        "raw_content": "Our Riverkeeper Patrol Program includes water sampling near major pollution sources in order to identify specific problems before we promote solutions. Although citizens and reporters frequently ask about our investigations of specific facilities, one of the questions we receive most often is more general, though no less important: \u201cHow is the health of the river?\u201d This question is sometimes followed up with, \u201cIs it cleaner than it used to be, or is it more polluted than ever?\u201d Because local and state governments in Alabama do not track ambient water quality to the extent of some other states, we rely on anecdotal evidence from long-term residents, most of whom declare that the river is cleaner now than it was decades ago. However, we also hear many stories about particular streams that used to be deep and clear, but have now been filled with sediment and/or run discolored.\nIn 2017, we launched an ambient water quality monitoring program to establish a baseline for overall water quality throughout the river system which will provide scientific evidence to answer the public\u2019s concerns. Additionally, collecting this data can help inform future decisions to be made by our staff. For instance, knowledge of background water quality can help the staff write more informed comment letters on permits and federal actions/regulations with the potential to affect the watershed.\nThe data can also help staff identify which streams or river segments are more heavily impacted by polluted discharges. Additionally, the data can also help inform the staff with regards to how certain conditions may affect water quality, such as periods of drought or heavy rainfall. The program will also include a component to monitor quality in suspected impaired streams over time for the purpose of identifying streams that should be protected with 303(d) status. Finally, we want all our water quality data to be available on our website for use by our members, regulators, or any other interested parties.\nTop funders of the Ambient Water Quality Monitoring program currently include the Community Foundation of Greater Birmingham, Metabolic Studio, Milo\u2019s Tea Company, and Cahaba Brewing Company.",

        "title": "How to Lead a Team Like a Pro Your First Time",
        "raw_content": "How to Lead a Team Like a Pro Your First Time\nThere are a lot of reasons you can be put in a leadership position, and it's not always something you're prepared for. I've met a lot of reluctant de facto leaders who have painstakingly grown to become outstanding leaders. Although most of them braved the crucible of trial and error to get to that level, you don't have to.\nYou can build specific competencies and practices early on that will help short-circuit that process, and get you to a place of confident and impactful leadership way sooner than you would otherwise.\nHere are some examples of things you can use to make your first leadership position a great experience from day one:\nKnow yourself and your organization\nPerhaps one of the most important things you can focus on early in the process is zooming out, and taking stock of your own personal assets: your core competencies, the way you like to get things done, and your current limitations.\nIt's absolutely possible to push past those initial limitations, but pushing too far without the necessary tools is a recipe for disaster.\nNext, identify the assets your organization and your team can provide you with. The better you know your organization \u2014 its goals, its values, its mechanics, its strengths, and its people \u2014 the better you'll be able to implement strategies that push it forward.\nA thorough assessment of your available assets can make all the difference.\nOnce you've got a good sense of what you have available to you, it will be easier to answer more challenging questions, and solve tougher problems.\nMake sure you're aware of which members of your team are subject matter experts in which areas so that they can help you to make better decisions and push the organization forward more effectively.\nSharlyn Lauby published a great list of tips for first-time supervisors, and many of her examples apply here as well:\n\"Often we put additional pressure on ourselves by assuming incorrectly that being a supervisor means we need to have all the answers. Being a supervisor means we should be able to find all the answers, not that all the answers are located in our heads.\"\nThe true test of an effective leader is how well they can apply their own unique skills and knowledge along with those of their team and their organization to produce work that is greater than the sum of those parts.\nShare your assets\nOnce you have a good sense of what your assets are, it's just as important to learn how to leverage and share them effectively in a leadership capacity.\nMentorship and skill sharing are massively powerfuls tool for any leader.\nIt's crucial to know your strengths, not only because you need to know what you can personally bring to the table, but also because you need to know what you can share with others.\nEven if it's something you might consider trivial, it might not be to others. That skill could be influential in the advancement to a colleague's career, so share your knowledge freely and frequently.\nIt's equally important to find out how your additional leverage as a leader can help your team do their jobs more effectively.\nThere might be a redundant process standing in their way that you now have the authority to eliminate. There could be a bottleneck on a much larger initiative that you can relieve by eliminating or fast-tracking a smaller project.\nFind out what leverage you have, and how it can impact the effectiveness of your team. That will help get more work done in a shorter time, and doing so can often help to eliminate project-based friction or frustration.\nValue and practice transparency\nOne of the most crucial factors in building the trust required to lead a team to success is transparency. Gathering and sharing the crucial information needed to achieve maximum output is nearly impossible in a siloed, opaque organizational structure.\nBe transparent about what your goals are, what your organization's goals are, and how you're planning to achieve them. This isn't only useful in building trust, there's a significant logistical element here as well.\nIt's vital that your team knows why their contributions matter, and why they're doing what they're doing. Transparency isn't only going to help your team understand why they're working for you -- it also provides a tactical element of \"how\" you're trying to get the work done.\nAs Carolyn O'Hara puts it in her Harvard Business Review article:\n\"Whether you\u2019re taking over an existing team or starting a new one, it\u2019s critical to devote time and energy to establishing how you want your team to work, not just what you want them to achieve. The first few weeks are critical.\"\nGiving someone instructions without context might get the job done, but it's not likely to get that job done to its utmost potential. The more of that context you can share, abd the clearer you can be about how you're approaching the solution, the better.\nYou may also find that by supporting and maintaining an atmosphere of transparency in your team, that this information flows both ways. This omni-directional flow of information can provide priceless insights into your team and your organization that you might otherwise miss.\nWhen they're conducted effectively and regularly, one-on-one meetings are one of the most impactful tools you have at your disposal.\nThey'll not only help you stay abreast of what your team is working on, where they're challenged and where they're blocked \u2014 they'll help you to understand how you can do your own job beter, how you can make a greater impact on the organization, and how you can help your team achieve their individual goals.\nYour ability to help members of your team achieve their goals will directly impact their motivation, and your ability to achieve yours. One-on-one meetings are an excellent forum to learn where your team needs your suppor the most, and the most effective way you can provide it.\nThey should happen frequently, at least once a week.\nIf you're new to conducting one-on-one meetings, and they seem a bit intimidating, don't worry \u2014 you're not alone.\nWe recently published a guide to help leaders and their teams get the most from these meetings that you might find helpful. It's full of tested techniques and important lessons we've learned as we continue to develop our own one-on-one strategy.\nOne-on-one meetings can be challenging to get right, but the payoff is huge.\nRecognize great work\nEveryone deserves to be recognized for their contributions.\nOne of the most critical goals you should set as a new leader is to recognize and reward great work wherever it happens across your team. That's not always as easy as it sounds, so it's equally important to have a mechanism in place that can help you achieve that goal, even if you're not able to witness every contributon.\nThe key is understanding that recognition doesn't have to come directly from you every time \u2014 but it does have to happen if you want to keep your team motivated and engaged.\nThere are a lot of recognition tools and resources available to help you build a culture of recognition across your team, but here are a few of the most important points to consider.\nTo be its most effective, employee recognition should be:\nAligned with organizational goals and values\nYour success is no longer directly tied to your individual performance. It's absolutely critical to make that mental shift, and it's often a huge sticking point.\nAlthough you may have found yourself in a leadership position because of your individual performance in a certain function, that's no longer going to be the way your impact on the organization is measured.\nYou're now responsible for the success of the team, and there's only so much legwork you can accomplish toward that end on your own.\nThat means doing less things yourself \u2014 because you can often make a bigger impact by effectively delegating work to a talented team than you can by doing the work by yourself \u2014 even if you've got tremendous skill in the area.\nThat can be a bit unnerving, especially for those who haven't been in a leadership position for very long, but it's crucial to learn to trust in the competency of your team.\nAvery Augustine explains this in her recent article on The Muse:\n\"As a manager, you can\u2019t possibly know and keep up with all the details of each and every project that the members of your team are working on. Trying to do so will turn you into a micromanager\u2014which isn\u2019t beneficial to you or your team.\"\nIt may take a while to adjust to this way of accomplishing goals and getting work done, but that effort pays off.\nDelegating effectively is one of the most valuable skills you can bring to your organization, but it's always important to maintain a healthy level of empathy, and remember what it was like earlier in your career.\nCraig Cincotta, SAP's Senior Director of Marketing Communications, explained this in a great article he wrote for Entrepreneur recently:\n\"You need to create an environment where you are actively relying on others to help carry projects. You will still be informed, but you need to let others lead so they can grow their abilities and perspective.\"\nIt's not just that you're pusing work off onto others \u2014 you're orchestrating a body of work that you could not accomplish alone, and you're handing them the tools they need to expand their own skills and competencies.\nWith each project you successfully delegate to your team, you push the organization and your skills as a leader forward a little bit faster.\nTaking on a leadership position for the first time can be an extraordinarily challenging, but equally rewarding experience. By keeping a few key points in mind and developing a few important skills, you can dramatically reduce the amount of time it takes to gain the trust and esteem of your colleagues as an extraordinary leader.\nIf you're ready to take the next step in your leadership journey, check out our latest guide:\nOriginally published on October 26, 2016 \u2192 Last updated September 6, 2017",

Nor do I play an instrument, which was always considered a heresy. At recitals in the old days, I would find a good wall to lean against and drink. Just thinking of those old recitals, I consider packing up for the day and heading down to Abbey Street. But apparently, though I was no performer, then or now, I was a friend, because here I am, doing the one thing the others couldn\u2019t do well: talk. They were lovers, in their own way, with the social graces of furry animals: cuddly, but one knew they had sharp teeth, and when prompted, would use them.\nThe Byrnes and Fahys did not, as a matter of course, tolerate outsiders. The extent of the bonds they developed were blood bonds, and the exceptions were few, which led one to surmise, me included, that there was something of the kissing cousin between Aestrid and Tom. I don\u2019t know this to be so, but it could be, if I had the wherewithal, verified. One last living barrier stands between me and the truth, one last patriarch, but I am not so bitter. The fact of the matter is, I miss my friends. This role, as curator, was made for me, in writ, that when I woke one red-eyed morning, on Pump Lane, I think it was, I was accosted, put into a car, carried into a Monday morning office, disheveled, brought coffee and scones, met by a straight-backed man who said nearly, \u201cShould you wake up on Pump Lane, your new life will begin.\u201d And so it did.\nAnd it\u2019s not after all a hideous undertaking, the ins and outs of curation, but it occurs to me how incomplete the task, how insufficient will be my efforts, because it\u2019s no calling this, though the drinking is. And seeing that I am largely defective, the organization, as I call it, has installed me in a pub, that I might do better work here, between gulps.\n\u00ab In those days\u2026 Bureaucrazy \u00bb",

Chander, first Malaysian Chief Statistician (1963-1977) praises Guan Eng for early statement on national debt and stresses urgency of coherent plan to manage Malaysia\u2019s public sector debt\nI have received an expert opinion on Malaysia\u2019s public sector debt by Dr. R. Chander, the first Malaysian to hold the office of Chief Statistician of Malaysia (1963-1977) and who went on to serve as the Senior Adviser to the World Banks\u2019 Chief Economist/Vice President from 1977 to 1996. Upon retirement from the Bank, he had served as interntional adviser to multiple international agencies and governments.\nDr. Chander said he was encouraged by the speed with which the Pakatan Harapan government had come to grips with the most pressing issues and praised the Finance Minister, Lim Guan Eng for making an early statement on Malaysia\u2019s debt situation.\nHe said: \u201cThis was most timely indeed and most astute: it sent a strong signal to markets and had a calming effect; it told the electorate the mess that PH had inherited.\n\u201cAt the same time it sent a strong message that the debt situation would impede the implementation of several of the electoral promises.\n\u201cConcurrently it provided a rationale for the cancellation/suspension of several mega projects that were to be financed by loans \u2013 terms of which were rather unfavorable to Malaysia.\n\u201cA good side effect was the call to patriotism that was brought out by the launch of the Harapan Fund!\u201d\nThe question now is: Where do we go from here?\nIn his opinion piece, which I attached below, he stressed the urgency of coming up with a coherent and sound plan to manage Malaysia\u2019s public sector debt.\n[Media Statement by DAP MP for Iskandar Puteri Lim Kit Siang in Kuala Lumpur on Monday, 2nd July 2018]\nThis entry was posted on Monday, 2 July 2018, 4:41 pm and is filed under Economics, Finance, Good Governance.

        "title": "NBlog - the NoticeBored blog: What is an ISO 27001 gap analysis?",
        "raw_content": "What is an ISO 27001 gap analysis?\nIn the context of ISO/IEC 27001, I've often heard people planning to commission or conduct a \u2018gap analysis\u2019 or 'readiness assessment' or 'pre-certification audit' or 'ISMS project review', but what do they mean? What exactly is going to take place?\nGood question! There is no formal definition. It is essentially just a consultancy assignment specified by the client and agreed with the consultant/s doing the work. Given the context, its main purpose is generally to review the organization's state of readiness, addressing the question \"Is the organization ready to be certified compliant with the ISO standard?\" Another way of putting that is to ask \"If the certification auditors turned up next week, would they:\n(A) turn around and walk away during the very first morning, shaking their heads in sheer disbelief at the near total clue deficiency and leaving site with another war-story;\n(B) get stuck in to the audit fieldwork, quickly digging up plenty of issues including some major ones to discuss with management, perhaps serious enough that they would refuse to issue a certificate unless they were resolved;\n(C) get stuck in to the fieldwork, finding only a few trivial issues and a lot of good practices, hence having every reason to issue the certificate; or\n(D) struggle to find anything of real concern, perhaps leaving site with enough material for a case study in how to do it?\"\nDetermining the organization's certification readiness status is (usually) the obvious focal point of the job, its core objective ... but there's more to it in practice. In addition to the obvious gap-gazing element, an 'ISO27k gap analysis' or whatever the assignment is called will typically also:\nReview the scope of the ISMS and hence the likely scale and nature of the implementation project, including the timescales and resources needed;\nReview the information risks and security controls against those required or recommended by ISO/IEC 27001 [this is a surprisingly small element, since the standard and the certification auditors pay far more attention to the Management System than to Information Security];\nReview the ISMS implementation project or programme - the plans and resources (particularly key players such as the project manager, steering committee and senior management advocate), and various project risks;\nIntroduce various people in the organization to the idea that managing information risk and security really is a bigger, broader, deeper concern than they probably appreciated (e.g. it concerns physical security for smartphones and servers, corporate papers, tablets, laptops and people while they are traveling on business or working from home or whatever - areas that traditional IT security, even in the modern guise of \u2018cybersecurity\u2019, may have barely even considered: there's more to ISO27k than IT/technical security!);\nInform and hopefully engage management and other stakeholders more fully with the ISMS and the ISMS implementation project, giving them the chance to think about, raise and discuss information risks that are of concern to them and the business, not just of theoretical concern to those paranoid infosec pro's;\nPump-prime a productive business dialog between stakeholders and specialists that will continue indefinitely, concerning information risks, opportunities, controls, governance, compliance, privacy And All That, emphasizing their value to the organization (the business context);\nProvide information and guidance for planning and completing the ISMS implementation, such as prioritizing areas which need some serious effort to bring them up to the required standards. The advice may extend to working out roughly how long it will take and how much more it is likely to cost; identifying the \u2018friends' of information security vice those who are more likely to be blockers or enemies, needing some guidance and persuasion to bring them into line;\nGive management an independent perspective on the ISMS and the project team, from a competent, experienced professional who knows the standards inside-out and has been hands-on using them for a considerable period (hopefully, that is: anyone can claim to be a consultant, so caveat emptor - check their qualifications, background and expertise. An ISO/IEC 27001 Lead Auditor or Lead Implementer certificate may seem impressive but does not, in itself, indicate much beyond confirming somebody's attendance on a short course, especially if it is a fake or was issued under dubious circumstances. Remember that the consultant is likely to gain sensitive inside knowledge about the client's information security arrangements, hence they must be trustworthy);\nGive the Chief Information Security Officer, Information Security Manager, Information Security team, Cybersecurity guy/gal or ISMS Implementation Project Manager a chance to see how the consultant works, and vice versa. If the assignment goes well for both parties and the working relationship flourishes, there may be opportunities for ongoing contact and support, perhaps further consulting assignments during the journey ahead. If not, well fair enough, maybe it's better to part ways at this point;\nSupport and encourage all concerned in a general sense. As well as gently pointing towards the end goal, boosting team morale, (re)motivating people and reassuring nervous managers are classic side-benefits of a productive project audit or review.\nAs with the ISO27k standards themselves, factors such as the size or type of organization, its structure, ownership etc. are of limited relevance to the assignment. A gap analysis is likely to be quite quick (perhaps a couple of days on the ground) for a relatively small, simple organization at a single location that doesn\u2019t have a lot of valuable or vulnerable information to protect, doesn\u2019t have many people or business relationships, is already strong on information security, and isn\u2019t subject to stringent compliance obligations (laws, regulations, contracts including PCI-DSS, and more). Conversely a bank, even a small/specialist one, is bound to take longer to assess. Likewise a multinational or a government body.\nThe timing of the gap analysis is also pertinent. If the job is done very early on in the ISMS implementation project (perhaps even in advance of project approval), there probably won't be much in the way of hard evidence to review, making the assignment very fluid and somewhat perplexing for client employees not already engaged with the project. Conversely if it is done just a few weeks before the formal certification audit, most of the hard work should have been done: a competent consultant should still find a few things to comment on, providing a measure of assurance to management that the audit is likely to go smoothly once the final few pieces slip into place.\nThings can get interesting if the gap analysis falls in the middle period. The basics of an ISMS should all be in place with some parts of it operational already. This is normally such a fraught period for the implementation project team, however, that they may not have the high-level oversight, hence management may well be concerned to find out whether the project is on track and going to plan, teetering on the brink or running off the rails. A gap analysis in this period can be more involved and take longer, if only for the simple reason that everyone is extremely busy. On the up-side, there is still time left to make substantial changes if that is necessary. This is a good point to pencil-in the certification audit, and start lining up the certification body (the details to be confirmed nearer the time, perhaps after a final readiness assessment).\nStrong governance of information risk and security, including management engagement with the ISMS is, I venture, crucial to its long term success, one of the if not the biggest Critical Success Factors. To put that another way, limited management understanding and support is, in my experience, the number one reason for problems on ISMS projects and the most likely reason for lack of funds, lack of priority, disinterest, unplanned changes, limited scope, lack of opportunity for improvements, aggravation, stress and, ultimately, marginal value to the organization. A well-timed, well-specified, well-resourced gap analysis can be the turning point.\nPS I am planning to add that updated version of the process diagram to the free ISO27k Toolkit at ISO27001security.com in due course.\nPPS Get in touch if you think you might want a gap analysis.

        "title": "Pituitary gland - the most important factor for height development",
        "raw_content": "The roles of the pituitary gland to the height development\nThe pituitary gland, which locates at the base of the brain and protrudes below the cerebrum, has super micro size (weighing only 0.5 gram). It regulates many endocrine glands of the body such as thyroid gland, adrenal gland, reproductive gland, etc. It especially produces growth hormone (GH for short).\nThe pituitary gland produces the growth hormone to grow taller\nWhen the pituitary gland operates normally, it will secrete much growth hormone, especially during sleep (from 10:00 PM to 1:00 AM). The growth hormone affects to most of body tissues, increases number and sizes of cells and increases the viscera's sizes. At the same time, the growth hormone stimulates the development of cartilage tissues at the epiphyses and made the diaphyses longer. The cartilage tissues also begin to develop and work more smoothly and help prevent osteoarthritis and other bone diseases. Therefore, the growth hormone controls bone tissue growth, maintains the proper balance of muscles and adipose tissues and increases the height of children and teenagers.\nMoreover, the pituitary gland also creates the interaction between the growth hormone and somatomedin in protein metabolism to promote cartilage growth and body growth and stimulate the sulfate incorporation into the cartilages. Simultaneously, under the effect of the growth hormone, lipids are used to create necessary energy to save proteins for the body growth and stimulate the maximum height growth.\nChildren with pituitary failure will be short\nThe pituitary gland is the gland that is responsible for controlling and regulating the growth and the development of the body. Therefore, when a child suffers from the pituitary failure, his/her pituitary gland will reduce the secretion of the growth hormone and his/her height development will be very different from that of his/her peers.\nChildren with pituitary failure will be shorter than their peers\nThe pituitary failure is often progressive. Therefore, it causes the exhaustion, the inadequate production of the growth hormone, the difficulties in regulating bone density, the decrease in muscle mass and the change in glucose and lipid metabolism. The body cannot produce its own factors to stimulate the development of the cartilage tissues at the epiphyses so the cartilage tissues are prematurely degenerated. At that time, the epiphyses and the diaphyses are merged together and the bones no longer grow. This is clearly showed through the developmental stages of the body and maintained throughout life. Mostly, people with pituitary failure have very limited height: male under 4'3\" and female under 3'11\".\nFurthermore, when a child suffers from the pituitary failure, the pituitary gland fails to release the growth hormone. The body cannot secrete enough reproductive hormone of the reproductive organs. As the result, the child stops growing, has no sex expression and is infertile. If the pituitary failure is not treated promptly, the child will not grow and mature.\nThe pituitary failure should be treated as soon as possible\nAccording to experts, if you suffer from pituitary failure due to traumas, severe head injuries, brain tumor or meningococcal infection and encephalitis, you need a surgery to remove your brain tumor to return normal space for the pituitary gland, produce enough growth hormone and support the height development process.\nHowever, if a child suffers from congenital pituitary failure and loss of pituitary function, he/she should be promptly supplemented with the growth hormone from the outside sources to stimulate the height development. The treatment should be done as soon as possible because stimulating the height development by the growth hormone from the outside sources requires certain periods.\nThe growth hormone supplementation from the outside sources needs to be carried out before the age of puberty, preferably from 4 to 5 years old and under 13 years old. If this \"golden time\" is missed, the child's unstimulated cartilages and bones will stop growing. As the result, the use of the growth hormone is no longer effective. This means that it is impossible to return the puberty to the child and the infertility is forever.\nThe pituitary gland is a very important factor to the body growth, especially in a child's height development process. Moreover, it is also a decisive factor to help the child possess an ideal height when he/she grows up.\nScientists in the United States have created an effective height growth supplement NuBest Tall which is trusted by consumers around the world. NuBest Tall is the only height growth supplement in the world that is combined and distilled based on the integrative formula between the East and West medicine. This combination of herbal ingredients can help the Pituitary gland in the process of releasing more growth hormones naturally so it stimulates rapid growth of height. As such, children can achieve maximum height when they are in their mature ages.",

        "title": "Rare MS63 1900 $20 Liberties Now Available at Provident",
        "raw_content": "Buy Graded $20 Liberties at Shockingly Low Prices\nBy ProvidentMetals.com on February 6, 2018 Filed Under: Featured Products\nIn the late 19th and early 20th century, the United States Double Eagle emerged as one of the world\u2019s most popular gold coins. This massive denomination was first created as a way of converting California gold into official legal tender\u2014but it soon became an internationally recognized unit of exchange. Foreign banks and governments began using the American Double Eagle for their own reserves. While many European countries experienced currency revaluations and volatility, the U.S. Dollar was perceived to be stable and trustworthy.\nWith this in mind, it\u2019s no surprise that hoards of $20 Double Eagles have popped up overseas. Financial institutions, wealthy individuals, and merchants often squirreled American gold coins for safekeeping. Quite a few of these foreign caches were uncovered in recent decades, but they still appear from time to time to this day. We were fortunate enough to locate one of these gold hoards recently\u2014and we\u2019re offering you the coins today.\nWe\u2019ve bought many exciting gold \u201cdeals\u201d over the years, but this find was one of the most memorable. An original hoard of 1900 Philadelphia $20 Double Eagles surfaced in a foreign country\u2014and we ended up being the lucky buyers! These coins are remarkable for their quality and uniform appearance. They likely sat untouched in rolls for over a century; each coin displays a beautiful patina that takes decades to form. Ample mint luster shines through and the surfaces are exceptionally clean.\n1900 P $20 Double Eagle\nThese freshly-discovered 1900 $20 \u201cLibs\u201d were sent to NGC and received a grade of Mint State 63. In order to qualify for this grade, a coin must be strictly Uncirculated, possess solid eye appeal, and be devoid of any major flaws. There\u2019s a reason why the MS63 grade is usually called \u201cChoice Uncirculated,\u201d as a coin must be clearly above average to merit this designation. Had these graded MS64\u2014and we think some deserve that grade\u2014they would be worth hundreds more per coin.\nThe 1900-P Double Eagle is a popular year in the $20 Liberty series as a turn-of-the-century issue. It\u2019s also a great value, as it\u2019s actually significantly scarcer than the \u201cgeneric\u201d 1904 date, yet sells for little or no premium. According to NGC population reports, it\u2019s four times rarer than the 1904. Yet, today we\u2019re offering this date for essentially the same price as a common date. Not only is this date undervalued by the marketplace, but ALL $20 MS63 Liberties are selling for historically low premiums.\nWithin the past decade, $20 Liberties have traded for over DOUBLE their melt value. In early 2010, for example, the NGC Price Guide pegged this coin\u2019s value at over $3,200 per coin when gold spot was just $1,100 to $1,200! At the time, metals were surging and a wave of new investors were rushing into the precious metals space. Vintage gold coins were in short supply; demand far exceeded available inventory in the marketplace. Today, shrewd buyers can pick up these same classic U.S. gold coins at a modest premium over melt!\nYour cost on these freshly-discovered 1900 $20 Liberties is roughly $1,430 per coin. That\u2019s a mere 11% over melt\u2014and a far cry from the 100%+ premiums these used to fetch 5 to 10 years ago. While we believe these make fantastic collectibles, they\u2019re also a savvy way of owning gold. They will advance in value if the spot price rises, but also stand to gain in numismatic premium too. Coins like this offer owners two ways to win.\nThis cache of MS63 $20 Liberties is limited to exactly 100 coins. If you\u2019d like to take advantage of this unique offer, be sure to reserve your coins early. Special groups like this rarely come onto the market, and when they do, they\u2019re almost never priced so close to melt. Lock in your turn-of-the-century 1900 Double Eagles while they\u2019re still available!\nBarbara Hazleton says\nI just called and was told you no longer have any of the $20 liberties double eagles 1900P left in stock and can\u2019t reserve any. It is the group of coins that you recently purchased from overseas as per your blog.\nYes, that is correct. Oftentimes, when we\u2019re able to secure great deals like these coins, we have very limited quantities available. Sorry you weren\u2019t able to buy the $20 Libs. But please sign up for our email newsletter to be informed of similar deals as we offer them!",

        "title": "How to Find the Best Authentic Food When You Travel?",
        "raw_content": "This guest post was written by Pia S\u00f8rensen.\nWhen you are planning a trip to a new city or country, you probably have an idea of the activities and attractions you would like to experience during your stay. But have you thought about which foods you will be eating?\nAlthough they are not all as famous as Germany\u2019s Sauerkraut or Naples\u2019 pizza, most places have a local must-try dish. If you want to check culinary experiences off your list, make sure to do a little research before you leave, so you will know exactly where to find it.\nOnce you have covered the obligatory dishes, it\u2019s time to get adventurous and find your own personal favourites among the local food offers. To get you off to a good start, we have gathered some useful advice that will help you to steer clear of the tourist traps and to seek out truly authentic flavours and experiences.\n1) Go where the locals go\nWe all know the saying \u2018when in Rome, do as the Romans do\u2019. Not surprisingly, this applies to food, too. If you are looking to dine out during a trip abroad, look for the places where the guests seem to be locals rather than tourists - if it is good enough for them to keep coming back, it is worth a try, right?\nOf course, it is not always easy to spot these places yourself as they tend to be tucked away in the side streets. However, we are sure your local Showarounder will be more than happy to give you a few tips on where to go!\nWhen you are looking for local experiences, it is always good to ask for advice from the locals themselves. However, in the case of local foods, you should make sure to ask the right questions.\nIf you go to a city like Copenhagen and ask the locals what Danish food you should try, chances are they will tell you about traditional dishes like frikadeller and sm\u00f8rebr\u00f8d - only to go out and eat something completely different themselves.\nTo eat like a true local, ask your host or guide about their own favourite foods and restaurants. With personal recommendations like this, you are sure to get a taste of the food scene favoured by the locals - traditional or not.\n3) Sign up for a social dining event\nCan you imagine what it would be like to have a friend in every city that could introduce you to the very best of the local cuisine? Maybe even invite you to a real family style meal? Well, if you are not among the lucky few, social dining is a good alternative, as it is all about giving you a home-like experience - even if you don\u2019t know a soul in the city you are visiting.\nThrough platforms like TastePlease, you can browse for privately hosted meals all over the world and join a local family for breakfast, lunch or dinner. This way, you can have your main course served with a side of local tales and personal anecdotes!\nThis way, you can have your main course served with a side of local tales and personal anecdotes!\nShould you get the chance, joining a community dinner in the area is another way to turn your meal into a social - and local - experience. Generally these dinners bring people together across generations and social groups, so you will be sure to get many different perspectives on the places you visit.\n4) Seek out locally sourced produce\nAs great as it can be to socialize with the locals and make new friends at private dinners, you probably wish to explore the public side of the city and its food scene, too. If so, remember to look for farmers\u2019 markets, nearby vineyards etc., where you will have the chance to enjoy fresh foods and produce straight from the source.\nNo matter what you prefer, the hectic buzz of a busy market, for example, or the peace and quiet of the great outdoors, the special atmosphere of these places will be sure to add an extra element to your food experience!\nOur last piece of advice seems like the simplest of them all, but it is also the most important. To fully experience the food culture of your place of visit, you should be prepared to leave your comfort zone and try foods that you normally would not consider eating.\nLocal delicacies vary greatly across the world, and at first glance some of them are sure to seem weird to you. If you give them a try, however, you may be positively surprised by the flavour combinations - and even if that is not the case, you are sure to go back home one experience richer!\nGuest blogger: Pia S\u00f8rensen has always been fascinated by the languages and cultures of the world. She is the kind of traveler who takes her time to experience what life is like in a new country, and she is likely to come back years later to revisit old memories and discover new sides of familiar places.\nShowaround: Thank you Pia for being our guest blogger!",

        "title": "9 Ways Work Experience Can Help Your Students | Springpod Blog",
        "raw_content": "Blog \u00bb 9 Ways Work Experience Can Help Your Students\nIt\u2019s not fresh news that the job market is tough and competitive. Despite news that unemployment rate is at its lowest in a while, companies can still afford to be picky and the demand for job seekers to be more qualified with more work experience continues to grow. It\u2019s not just the competition that makes the job market so hard for young people, but it\u2019s also the amount of choice students are faced with when making the leap from school to work. With thousands of jobs at their finger tips online, students are bombarded with feasible options at each end of the spectrum.\nThis is what makes work experience so important for your students, exposing them to the realities of the world of work, adding more strings to their CV bows and ultimately helping them discover what industries they love (and those they really don\u2019t). We\u2019ve reached out to young people and companies to help us break down nine ways work experience can help your students.\nGives a reality check\nJoel arranged a work experience placement with a music software company at the end of year 12. He\u2019s now at university, but has had various part-time jobs and feels that his work experience has helped him in the workplace. Joel explains:\n\u201cDoing work experience enabled me to see every aspect of the working world, including practical details such as the commute, what happens at lunchtime and getting used to a longer working day.\u201d\nJoel also found that work experience made him more realistic about the world of work. Joel says:\n\u201cI\u2019d built an idea in my head of what a job would be like but the reality was completely different. Work experience brought me down to earth, and meant I was much better prepared when I started paid work. I also understood the importance of good timekeeping and getting a decent night\u2019s sleep before working days.\u201d\nMoves students away from the fantasy stage\nThe \u201cfantasy\u201d stage of career development is well-documented, and is something most careers teachers are familiar with. Experiencing the world of work, and most importantly, talking to people in the workplace about their lives can really help young people move on from the fantasy stage. Elliot explains what happened to him:\n\u201cI went along to an interview for work experience with a guitar over my back. It turned out that several people who worked in the company had a strong interest in music and played in bands in their spare time. They showed me that it\u2019s possible to play in a band and also have a full-time job which provides a secure living.\u201d\nRefines career choices\nBethan arranged two creative work experience placements during year 10 in handbag and jewellery design. However, at the end of the placements her career ideas had changed, as she explains:\n\u201cWork experience can be a great way to find out what you don\u2019t want to do. I realised that I didn\u2019t want to be a designer, but that I would like to work in a dynamic business environment.\u201d\nAngela Carroll from LB Bentley, adds:\n\u201cWork experience is the first exposure a young adult has to the workplace. It gives the student an opportunity to affirm their choice of career with confidence and provides any future employer information and evidence on the young person\u2019s attributes and attitudes.\u201d\nStudents are naturally often rather nervous about their work experience placement, especially if they\u2019ve never had a part-time job. If students have been properly prepared and employers adequately briefed, they\u2019ll usually return from work experience with increased self-confidence. This can often translate into students who are better motivated to study. Work experience takes away the mystery of the working world, and therefore reduces anxiety.\nAlan Bullock, independent Careers Adviser, says:\n\u201cI\u2019ve often seen the benefits of work experience with my students. I\u2019ll sometimes see a young person who is going through a difficult time and may lack confidence. After a period of well-organised work experience I see them go from strength to strength. \u201c\nBuilds personal development skills\nEveryone is talking about the \u201csofter\u201d skills that employers need. They\u2019re arguably as important as qualifications. Perhaps one of the most important of these is communication, both written and verbal. During work experience your students can practice their clear spoken English, and their ability to take messages and communicate them effectively to others.\nWork experience students might be asked to answer the phone or to write emails. Although not all students have an outgoing personality, tasks such as answering the phone or making visitors drinks will help encourage a friendly and helpful attitude, skills that go a long way in the workplace.\nWork experience usually involves working in an environment where the student does\u2019t know anyone, and this is a massive change from school. This provides the ideal opportunity to learn self-reliance and use initiative, two other personal development skills that can be acquired through work experience.\nStuart Tiedeman, Group Chief Operating Officer at Retail Marketing International (RMI), always interviews a young person before they are accepted for work experience. He explains:\n\u201cThe interview is informal but will involve the student meeting the team and explaining what they hope to gain from the placement. They\u2019ll need to think on their feet, but this is ideal preparation for their week with us. During the placement there\u2019ll be lots more opportunities for them to use their initiative and make decisions. The youngster is not going to be surrounded by their peers, and one week with a company like ours means they really learn how to be self-reliant.\u201d\nGives an opportunity for an employer\u2019s reference\nEnsure your students ask for a reference that they can use with future job applications at the end of their placement. It can be hard for students to find a suitable referee from someone outside school, so one from a manager during work experience is ideal.\nWork experience is also a great chance to network and build connections. As is said, it\u2019s not always what you know, but who you know, and the earlier you build relationships in the world of work, the better.\nDevelops IT skills in the workplace\nYoung people often have highly-developed IT skills which are much appreciated in the workplace. During work experience students might get the opportunity to work with spreadsheets or databases, or learn about marketing techniques using social media, where they can use their IT skills within the parameters of the workplace. All these things look great on the CV! James Smith, Development Manager for a software company says:\n\u201cI always look for evidence of work experience on a CV. Without it I\u2019m very unlikely to offer the candidate an interview.\u201d\nEnhances team work skills\nThis is another skill-set that is highly sought after by employers. It isn\u2019t just people who play sports who get to develop these all-important skills. While on work experience your students will often have the opportunity to work as part of a team, share information and ideas and assist others where necessary. It\u2019s all about people skills, and showing how well you get on with others.\nProvides essential work experience for certain careers\nThere are certain jobs and courses where relevant work experience greatly enhances your application. Medicine and veterinary medicine are two examples, where you\u2019re unlikely to be offered an interview for a university place without it. If your students are interested in NHS Healthcare science roles, work experience in the NHS or a closely related area will be a big advantage. If your student has a definite career plan, aim to organise a work experience placement in that area.\nWork experience is key for students to be able to stand out from an over-saturated crowd, but it\u2019s not the only way that students can engage with employers before officially leaving education. Take a read of our blogs on what employer engagement is and employer engagement activity ideas for inspiration.\nemployerengagement jobmarket student workexperience",

        "raw_content": "Vindicia > Blog > Entertainment > Where did people watch the 2016 VMAs?\nSeptember 6, 2016 | Authored by: Vindicia Team Blogs\nEveryone, even people who don\u2019t consider themselves connoisseurs of pop music, has probably heard of the Video Music Awards. Hosted by MTV, the event one of the biggest annual events in terms of entertainment. While not as prestigious as the Oscars or the Tony Awards, the VMAs are nonetheless responsible for helping shape generations of music fans. Cultural establishments rarely stay the same, however, and these awards are no different. Despite the fact that the VMAs aired across multiple channels, most people watched the event online.\nThis year, more people than ever watched the VMAs online.\nShifting viewers\nThis year\u2019s VMAs, which aired Aug. 28, were set to be bigger than ever. Beyonce gave an extended performance from her recent album, while Rihanna had four different performances throughout he night. Rapper Kanye West also took the stage, and this year saw the return of pop icon Britney Spears to the VMAs. Viacom, the network\u2019s parent company, broadcast the event across a total of 11 channels, including MTV, VH1, MTV2, MTV Classic, BET, Spike, Comedy Central, Logo and CMT, according to Tech Times. Despite these efforts, TV viewership fell 34 percent from last year, dropping from 9.8 million people to 6.5 million, The New York Times reported.\nYet, the award show\u2019s online ratings were higher than ever. Overall, streaming viewers jumped 70 percent this year to hit 62.8 million. A significant portion of these viewers \u2013 45.8 million \u2013 watched the event through Facebook. Comparatively, only 4.4 million did the same last year.\nCreating value, generating revenue\nNeither the night\u2019s supreme celebrity power nor the simultaneous broadcasts were enough to stop the trend of sliding television viewers. As Ad Age mentioned, the event\u2019s ratings across VH1, Comedy Central and BET fell by 20 percent, 43 percent and 48 percent, respectively. This reflects a larger shift away from traditional network television.\nIn another day and age, a single appearance from one major celebrity alone was enough value to gain a huge amount of viewers. Watching the VMAs live on television was a chance to remain up to date on the world of pop culture, catching the performances and any surprise acts right as they happened. In a sense, watching live TV provided customers with value they couldn\u2019t get anywhere else. Now, the idea of value has changed. Instead of spending hours watching a TV event for a handful of performances, people would rather catch the highlights online. They\u2019ve become accustomed to the commercial-free experience provided by many over-the-top content companies.\nThe VMAs are just one of many instances where viewers shifted from television to the internet. Companies hoping to monetize video broadcasts should take note and seek ways to profit from online streaming. Using a subscription billing model is the most guaranteed way to succeed in this environment. The success of subscription video content has already been proven by the shift toward services like Netflix and Hulu. Instead of paying for network television, households are cutting cable and switching to platforms where they have greater control over their viewing experience. Using a subscription management service lets companies give their customers this value and control without sacrificing revenue.",

        "raw_content": "WAN-IFRA President Michael Golden: Journalists must work harder to reflect society\nIn once seemingly stable democracies, intolerance for media is playing out in various ways, from online harassment to assault and murder. WAN-IFRA President Michael Golden shares his thoughts on the fractured climate for journalists ahead of the World News Media Congress in Glasgow in June.\nImage: Screenshot from The Local and The Independent\n2018 will be remembered for the brutal killing of Washington Post correspondent Jamal Khashoggi, the death of 54 journalists, and intense online and offline harassment, including the extreme hate campaigns against Indian journalist Rana Ayyub and Maria Ressa, CEO of Rappler, Philippines, who was also arrested. US President Donald Trump, his emboldened supporters and their anti-press rhetoric, contributed to the deteriorating mood.\nIt looks set to continue through 2019. Over the past few months, France, in particular, has been grappling with rising anti-media sentiment. Ever since the \u2018yellow vest\u2019 movement took hold in November, journalists have been harassed, verbally abused and physically assaulted by protesters.\nVIDEO: A French photojournalist was shot in the knee with a low-velocity weapon during a \"yellow vest\" protest in La Rochelle on Monday. Freelance journalist Xavier L\u00e9oty, who works for the Sud Ouest newspaper as well as AFP, captured the incident on his GoPro camera. pic.twitter.com/npHZPOGL74\nAlthough French news organisations, associations like Reporters Without Borders, and government members were quick to denounce the attacks, a recent survey found that only one third of the French population actually condemned the violence against journalists.\n\u201cThe safety of journalists is of paramount importance,\u201d says WAN-IFRA President Michael Golden.\n\u201cAll of the press must report on countries where journalist safety is most threatened. The press's role in holding politicians, the courts, the police forces to account is more important than ever.\u201d\nThese worrying trends will be addressed at the World News Media Congress in Glasgow in June, a gathering of hundreds of media executives from across the globe.\n\u201cThese issues are of great importance and are equally complex. Honest and thoughtful discussion of these questions is what the conference promises,\u201d Golden says.\n\u201cThere is a line up of industry leaders from across the spectrum of media that will engage in these issues.\u201d\nWAN-IFRA: Trust in media is still disturbingly low, journalists are no longer seen as a key to holding power to account by frustrated publics and as a result, online harassment of journalists (and violence) is all too common. Why do you think the situation has escalated?\nMichael Golden: In many countries, including France and the U.S., large parts of the society have seen their quality of life deteriorate over the last few decades. Purchasing power has been flat or declining. People are working two jobs because they must. This situation has created frustration and anger.\nAt the same time, there has been an increased concentration of wealth among the top 1 to 5 percent of society. This is a dangerous situation. Trust has declined across many institutions including journalism and the press. Increasingly politicians find it useful to criticise the press and further feed the lack of trust. It is a situation that threatens informed decision-making by citizens.\nWhat effect do you think platforms and social media have on the public's view and trust of the news media?\nSocial Media includes a broad category. The largest \u2013 Facebook, Twitter, Google \u2013 are trying to reduce misinformation on their platforms. Governments and the press must continue to point out when they are successful and also when their efforts fall short or are not effective.\nThe major platforms are increasingly recognising the role they play both for good and for ill. The responsibility for what is distributed lies with the platforms. History has shown that government and the press play a critical role in holding them accountable to make the changes they must.\nWhat can be done to stem anti-media sentiment?\nJournalists and the press must work harder to reflect the experience, the fears and the hopes of society. While economies are growing, the benefit is not evenly shared. Journalists must do a better job of reflecting the situation of all levels of society. Many are working to do that. We can all improve.",

        "title": "Why the Commission is treating Poland more harshly than Hungary in its rule of law review | EUROPP",
        "raw_content": "Why the Commission is treating Poland more harshly than Hungary in its rule of law review\nIn January, the European Commission announced an inquiry into whether recent Polish reforms affecting the country\u2019s constitutional tribunal and media are consistent with the rule of law. Agata Gosty\u0144ska-Jakubowska writes that the Commission\u2019s review has been noticeably different from its previous approach in relation to Hungary, where there have been similar concerns raised over reforms carried out by Viktor Orb\u00e1n\u2019s Fidesz government. She argues that the fact that the Law and Justice party has less political allies at the European level and that the Juncker\u2019s Commission is more assertive vis-\u00e0-vis member-states than its predecessor, may go some way toward explaining why the cases have been handled differently.\nPoland\u2019s Law and Justice (PiS) party has never hidden its admiration for the Fidesz government in Hungary. Today, PiS has a parliamentary majority and can copy Fidesz policies. But while Viktor Orb\u00e1n, the Hungarian prime minister, has managed to get away with most of his reforms \u2013 perceived by many as \u2018illiberal\u2019 \u2013 Polish authorities may be less lucky. On 13 January the European Commission triggered a \u2018rule of law framework\u2019 against Warsaw \u2013 an instrument it adopted in 2014.\nNeither Fidesz nor PiS like being criticised, whether by the media or the courts. When Orb\u00e1n won parliamentary elections in 2010 he quickly turned the public media, which were often critical of him, into a government mouthpiece. The Polish government has also replaced the top management in public radio and TV with supporters of PiS.\nWhen in the past the Hungarian constitutional court questioned laws passed by Fidesz, the party (which until 2015 had a supermajority in parliament) simply amended the Hungarian constitution. PiS lacks a constitutional majority to do this but it can still amend laws. In December 2015 it changed the act governing the Constitutional Tribunal (Court). The new law obliges the Tribunal, among other things, to rule on cases in the order it receives them, rather than deciding for itself which cases are more important and should be considered first.\nViktor Orb\u00e1n, Credit: European People\u2019s Party (CC-BY-SA-2.0)\nPiS had therefore hoped that it would be some time before the Tribunal, which has many pending cases, has the opportunity to assess the constitutionality of its new measures. But in January 2016 the Tribunal decided that it will nevertheless review the changes to its own operation. If the Tribunal rules that they violate the constitution and the government does not honour its verdict, the conflict will escalate.\nThe EU institutions worry that Budapest and Warsaw are weakening democratic checks and balances. The European Parliament has regularly summoned Orb\u00e1n to explain his \u2018illiberal\u2019 policies; and the Commission took Hungary to the Court of Justice for violating EU law by forcing the country\u2019s 274 judges to retire. The Commission did not, however, activate article 7 of the Treaty on European Union (TEU) against Hungary. This article \u2013 regarded as the \u2018nuclear option\u2019 \u2013 is designed to address a serious threat to democratic values in a member state and can lead to the suspension of EU voting rights. EU leaders (minus the one concerned) must agree unanimously to impose such sanctions \u2013 something hard to achieve even if Poland and Hungary were not protecting each other.\nRather than making a vain attempt to use article 7 against Poland, the Commission activated the rule of law framework. This is despite the fact that the Council legal service had expressed its reservations concerning the legal basis of this instrument. The framework enables the Commission to assess \u201csystemic threats\u201d to the rule of law in EU member states. It builds on a dialogue with the member state in question, but the Commission may recommend changes to disputed policies. If it is not satisfied with the outcome of implementation of its recommendations, the Commission can propose that article 7 be activated.\nWhy does the Commission appear to be treating Warsaw more harshly than Budapest?\nThere are at least four reasons for the different approaches taken in relation to Poland and Hungary. First, Orb\u00e1n conducted most of his controversial reforms between 2010 and 2012 when the EU was pre-occupied with the euro crisis. Today, the EU faces even more crises, but the Juncker Commission is more assertive vis-\u00e0-vis member states and sees protecting the rule of law within the EU as a higher priority than Barroso did.\nIn this area, as in many others, the Juncker Commission reflects the priorities of the European Parliament. The Socialists & Democrats as well as Liberals have long called for tighter EU supervision of democracy in EU countries. Juncker, who needs the Parliament\u2019s support to pass his legislative programme, is responding to their concerns.\nSecond, Fidesz has more influential allies than PiS has. Fidesz belongs to the European People\u2019s Party (EPP), the biggest political group in the European Parliament. Joseph Daull, the EPP president, once admitted that Orb\u00e1n is the party\u2019s \u201cenfant terrible\u201d. But the EPP has only 30 seats more than the Socialists & Democrats in the Parliament and needs to hold onto the 12 votes of Fidesz.\nLaw and Justice sits with the British Conservative Party in the European Conservatives and Reformists\u2019 group, which is only the third largest formation in the Parliament. PiS may have thought that an alliance with David Cameron\u2019s party would be enough to block EU action against Warsaw. Although the British government views the rule of law framework as an undesirable power grab by the Commission, it is unlikely to be a vocal opponent of action against Poland. Cameron is renegotiating Britain\u2019s membership of the EU. Warsaw is his close ally but Cameron also needs the support of other member states, including those that worry about the rule of law in Poland and Hungary. The British prime minister will also need a helping hand from the European Parliament to translate some elements of the deal he reaches with member-states into EU legislation.\nThird, the Commission has drawn lessons from its unsuccessful legal attempts to bring Orb\u00e1n to heel. When in 2012 the Court of Justice ruled that the early retirement of the country\u2019s 274 judges (whom Orb\u00e1n replaced with party loyalists) violated EU law, Orb\u00e1n compensated the judges instead of reinstating them, thus complying with the letter but not the intention of the ruling. The rule of law framework is designed to fill the gap between infringement procedures and article 7 and make the Commission\u2019s actions more efficient.\nFinally, Poland is one of the most pro-European nations in the EU. According to the latest Eurobarometer report, 55 per cent of Poles view the EU positively. This compares to 39 per cent in Hungary and an EU average of 37 per cent. The Commission may have hoped that while citizens of most member states would have seen its action as an unnecessary intervention in domestic matters, Poles might react differently.\nIf the Commission is right, Poles will see its decision to trigger a rule of law framework as a sign that their country is losing influence in the EU and hold it against PiS. Support for PiS will fall, causing the government to reconsider its policies. But if the Commission is wrong, it risks antagonising one of the few truly pro-European member states.\nNote: This article is an amended version of a bulletin article published by the Centre for European Reform.

Not a peep..\nNapaios February 5, 2016 at 3:58 pm - Reply\nInteresting article but there\u2019s a problem of logical sequence here.\nThe article asks why the EU treats Poland more harshly than it did Hungary, which essentially boils down to the question why it used the \u2018rule of law instrument\u2019 now and not back then. But as the article states, the r.o.l. instrument was only created in 2014, whereas Orban did most of his naughty things in 2010-12. So there was no instrument for the EU to play tough with Orban anyway! (apart from art. 7 which as the article states is a very controversial move)\nOn the other hand, the Commission did take Orban to court in 2012 over his handling of the courts, and given how close the justice systems is considered to be to national sovereignty, surely this shouldn\u2019t be dismissed as a \u2018soft\u2019 approach towards Orban. It wasn\u2019t the Commission\u2019s lacking intention to go after Orban that explains its soft approach. It\u2019s rather the ineffectiveness of its approach that gives the impression that Hungary was having it easier than what Poland is having it now.\nAlso the argument that today\u2019s crisis context is more conducive than the crisis context of 2010-12 is slightly absurd. For the Commission to pick up a fight with the EU\u2019s sixth largest m-s and the largest state in CEE, when the Visegrad countries are in the forefront of opposition to the refugee relocation scheme, is suicidal.\nI think that in reality the Commission is engaged in a power struggle here for its own benefit and little understanding of the repercussions. The r.o.l. procedure was clearly created with Hungary in mind and the Commission was itching for a fight, looking to implement it on the first chance it got. The legal basis for doing so against Poland is shaky at the best, as the article admits. Poland is an easy target because PiS is not a member of any major Euro-family. Ultimately this is the main reason for whatever difference in approach (reason no. 2 in the article). And it would be interesting to see whether the Commission would have applied the r.o.l. procedure against an EPP government back in 2010-12. My guess is no.\nSo the main difference is that simply the Commission has more effective tools to deal with such problems now than it did back in 2010, while the fact that PiS is not a member of the EPP makes it fair game in comparison to Fidesz. The Commission is honest in its political monomania against non-mainstream governments, but with Poland it has better tools (the r.o.l. procedure) plus no inhibitions that it may be blocked by the biggest political family (which would expose it as cowardly).\nAll this leads us to the last paragraph of the article, and I wouldn\u2019t be so equivocal as the author is. It\u2019s quite obvious that the Commission is biased against PiS and that it\u2019s being perceived as doing the opposition\u2019s game in Poland. This is the greatest recipe to divide a people, create the impression that the EU is after a country (not just its government) and destroy whatever pro-European consensus existed there. Foolish policies that are bad for Europe, and as analysts we have a duty to call them what they are.\nBonk February 10, 2016 at 12:51 pm - Reply\n> But if the Commission is wrong, it risks antagonising one of the few truly pro-European member states.\nYeah, sorry, but too late. After all the German EU-bureaucrats gave their idiotic comments (Schultz, Oettinger) and got backed by their interior compatriots in German politics (Seehofer & co) it\u2019s just too late for hoping of not antagonising Poles.\nEven though I\u2019m not a PiS fan and don\u2019t like Kaczynski too much I\u2019m standing behind our government. No German is going to tell me what I should do in my own country.",

Her broken, heavily accented English. Would people think I\u2019m mocking her, making fun of her? Then I thought about how I also portray my father\u2019s voice\u2013his slow, grammatically incorrect yet vernacularly appropriate twang. Let\u2019s make this quite clear: these are the voices I\u2019ve heard growing up and still hear in my head. They ARE my parents\u2019 voices. And they are colourful, wonderful, unique\u2013they are their own. And to portray them otherwise would be to erase those voices and all the quirks and highs and lows that come with them.\nSeveral people suggested that it would be so wonderful and fun to do an audiobook version of What Doesn\u2019t Kill Us. When I thought of the possibility, I became filled with glee.\nWhen my father passed away almost nine months ago, I would call my parents\u2019 house in the hopes of no one being home, so that I could hear my father\u2019s voice on the answering machine. That simple message, \u201cYou reached the Worralls at 436-xxxx\u2026,\u201d wrapped around me like a thick blanket, warm and fresh from the dryer.

        "raw_content": "Beaver destroys historic bridge in Bavaria\nKUTZENHAUSEN-BUCH/ AUGSBURG- The Rothbr\u00fccke, located in the district of Augsburg in the community of Kutzenhausen has been in the news recently because of a rather interesting story that is making residents and Bavarians scratch their heads as to how this could happen. The 40-50 foot long beam bridge with concrete decking that spans a small creek has come under attack from an unlikely source, and it has caused the mayor to pursue measures to demolish and replace the bridge with haste. Beavers have been busy taking the bridge apart, piece by piece, where they have undermined the bridge\u2019s abutments and wingwalls by digging several holes behind it, as well as along the shoreline surrounding it. The abutment supports the decking of the bridge, whereas the wingwalls allows water to flow freely under the bridge and keep the dirt back. The end result of the beaver\u2019s work has been the area having several holes and tunnels at and behind the abutments, making it look like Swiss cheese, according to reports by the newspaper, Augsburger Allgemeine. The problem was first discovered in 2010, resulting in the weight limit of 3.5 tones being imposed on the bridge. But it was not enough for the beavers to widen their tunnel network and bring the bridge to a point of collapse. According to the mayor, Rupert Kugelbrey, the abutments are so undermined that the bridge could collapse at any moment. While the bridge has been closed off to all traffic including pedestrians since the end of February of this year, plans are now in the making to remove the bridge at the earliest possible convenience for safety reasons. Whether there will be a replacement for the 40+ year old bridge to follow remains open. But it has provided locals and pontists with some humor, as the beaver is being talked about among the social network community. And it is no wonder, for beavers have a potential to bring down trees and dam up streams, causing flooding. That they have the potential to destroy bridges by undermining important parts is something that is going to have engineers look at other ways to keep wild animals from destroying other bridges, regardless of age and materials used. For this beaver, it will have to find other bridges to undermine, once the Rothbr\u00fccke is removed, but not before receiving the Chronicles\u2019 Author\u2019s Choice Awards in the process, which will be presented next year.\nRespect. \ud83d\ude42\nMore on the bridge can be found here.

Photo taken in September 2014\nLooking for the right gift for Christmas, or a calendar with bridges and scenery because you have not found one in stores yet? You are just in luck! \ud83d\ude42\nIn time for the holiday season, the Bridgehunter\u2019s Chronicles and its sister column the Flensburg Files have new items available to order and give to your friend or loved one. Click here in the Flensburg Bridgehunter Online Shop, and you will have an opportunity to buy a new 2015 calendar, mugs and coffee cups with their respective logos on there, Christmas ornaments and new at the shop, photos of bridges taken by the author with some interesting facts about them. The platform for the shop, Cafe Press, has some deals regarding shipping and other opportunities. Check out the shop by clicking here.\nProceeds will go to various bridge projects in the works. Among them include two books on bridges in Iowa, one in Schleswig-Holstein, Germany, as well as a couple bridge preservation projects that are going on at the present time. If there is an item or photo that you would like to order but is not at the online shop, please let the author know and there are ways to get it to you as soon as possible. If you have any questions or want more information on the bridge projects, please him know as well.\nThe merchandise sold through Cafe Press feature a new logo. The old logo, depicting the Rendsburg High Bridge in Germany, will be phased out in favor of one featuring another German bridge. The Fehmarnsundbr\u00fccke (EN: Fehmarn Bridge) was built in 1963 and is the first bridge in the world to feature a basket-handle tied arch span. Connecting Fehmarn Island and Scandanavia with the rest of Germany and Europe via Migratory Bird Route, the future of the steel lady is in limbo for reasons to be mentioned in an article to be posted later in the fall. In support of the bridge, it is featured in the new logo that follows a pattern similar to the one featured in the Flensburg Files, but only with acronyms. You will see more of the new logo when articles are being presented in the near future, but not before giving the old iron lady of Rendsburg its proper send-off, as will be seen in the next article.\nReminder: The Chronicles is still taking on articles and information on the best example of a restored historic bridge as well as tour guides on regions with historically significant bridges. They will be nominated for this year\u2019s Ammann Awards. More information can be found here.\nBy Bridgehunter's Chroniclesin FYI Bridge Newsflash, News 25.

Photo courtesy of the HABS HAER Record\nAt first, the bridge seems to be a typical steel arch bridge in a small Pennsylvania community of Brownsville, located approximately 40 miles south of Pittsburgh, along the Monogahela River. However, instead of tearing down the structure, as it has been described in a textbook fashion by PennDOT, this bridge is due to be rehabilitated.\nSo what\u2019s so special about Dunlap\u2019s Creek Bridge, an 80-foot long bridge that reminds the author of the Blackfriar\u2019s Road Bridge in London?\nThe bridge is definitely older than Blackfriar\u2019s Road Bridge. It was built in 1869 and still serves traffic over the River Thames.\nThis bridge was built much earlier- 1839, to be exact!\nDunlap was the product of Captain Richard Delafield, the person who designed the bridge. The bridge consists of a Howe Lattice deck arch bridge, made of cast iron that was manufactured by Herbertson Foundry in town. Keys and Searight were the contractors for the bridge. The bridge was built 60 years after the first cast iron bridge in the world was constructed at Coalbrookdale, England, the structure that is still standing today. Yet Dunlap set the standard for the following developments:\n1. The bridge set the standard for the introduction of the Howe Truss, designed and patented by William Howe in 1840, one year later. It is possible that Howe either influenced Delafield into using this design or used this bridge as a reference for his design.\n2. The bridge was used as references for other arch bridges of this fashion, for hundreds of bridges of this type were used for crossings, big and small, in the US and Europe, built between the 1850s and 1900, a fraction of which are still standing today.\nHABS HAER\nThe bridge is the first one to be built in the USA, has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 1978 and is one of 76 bridges honored internationally for its unique design and historic significance. Now the 1839 bridge, which took three years to build and is the fourth crossing at this site, is scheduled to be rehabilitated. Plans are in the making to strengthen the arches, replace the roadway, and there is a possibility that the encasement installed in the 1920s will be removed, exposing the covered half of the cast iron arch. No details of how the bridge will exactly be restored, but PennDOT is looking at the restoration cost of up to $3.7 million, according to a report from the Post Gazette in Pittsburgh. The plan is to make it more attractive for tourists once the project is completed.\nBuilder\u2019s plaque.

The Chronicles will keep you updated on the project as it comes.\nThe Bike Challenge\nThe author and Galloping Gertie on the road. Shot of the Flutmulde Bridge at Sachsenburg, Thuringia. Photo taken in August 2014\nCo-produced with sister column:\nIn the past few weeks, three out of four of us have been nominated for the Ice-Bucket Challenge, whereby of the 75%, four out of five of us have actually done this challenge, either by donating $100 or dumping the bucket of ice water on our heads and donating an amount of our choice to the cause, which is fighting ALS. This disease, also known as Lou Gehrig\u2019s Disease, disables the nerves and spinal area in the body, affecting the person\u2019s motor skills.\nThe disease was named after the famous New York Yankees baseball star, who retired 75 years ago after being diagnosed with the disease and died less than two years later. He was the player famous for his comment: \u201cToday, I consider myself the luckiest man on the face of the Earth.\u201d\nThe idea of the bucket challenge came from Bill Gates and has received mixed reviews from those willing to present themselves doing this rather absurd act on social network and those who think society has become dumber by doing this. Personally, it would not be my cup of tea, as there are other crippling diseases that are just as deadly as ALS. This includes Multiple Sclerosis, a degenerative muscular disease that kills a person just as tortuously as this one. This is speaking from the experience after losing a close relative and two friends to this disease. And even if there was a bucket challenge for MS, I would go for the $100 donation instead of suffering from hypothermia thanks to a large bucket of ice cold water. Sorry people.\nBut the ice bucket challenge presented a brilliant idea for another fundraiser- the bike challenge. With the increase in popularity of bikes and the proliferation of bike trails both in the US and in Europe, why not use the bicycle as the challenge for raising funds?\nOne can challenge someone to bike a certain amount of kilometers and donate an amount of choice. Yet if he/she refuses, then a fixed amount would have to be donated, just like in the ice bucket challenge. The person would have to provide photos and tracking information to prove that the kms were biked and pass the challenge to others who are either avid bike fans or are willing to take up the challenge.\nFor example: If I was challenged to bike 50 km in one day, I would pick and choose a route that is bike friendly, like the bike trail along the Unstrut River in Thuringia between Erfurt and Artern, for example. Then I would provide a tracker and some photos, and after doing so, would challenge my next three compatriots to do the same. The amount donated can be based on whether I fulfill the challenge (which would be a fixed amount in my favor) or if I pass and have to donate based on what was fixed by the organizer, as Bill Gates did with his ALS Challenge. By the way, I did take the challenge a couple weeks ago, as you can see in the pics here.\nA railroad bridge converted to a bike trail crossing at Artern.\nSuch a bike challenge is useful for not only fundraising drives to combat diseases, like MS or cancer. Yet it can be useful for projects to restore historic places, like bridges, churches and houses, and other causes. For grassroots groups seeking fund-raising posibilities, this challenge is healthy, affordable and provides a challenge to those who would take advantage of the great outdoors and provide a sense of personal achievement, instead of making a total fool out of him/herself by dumping a bucket of ice water over the head, risking a heart attack, hypothermia and other health issues. Furthermore, as you can see in my challenge, you can discover many new sights based on your interest (and the interest of others)\nSo if you are one of those groups seeking fund-raising possibilities and would like to challenge people, this is one worth considering. It runs parallel to the ice-bucket challenge, but it is a lot more interesting, fun, healthier and even safer than the other challenge. And even if you decide for another challenge- like a friend of mine from Minnesota did and thought of a creative way to challenge others to buy extra products to be donated to a local food shelter- it is much more beneficial than to be soaked in ice cold water, especially now, as my instincts are telling me that winter is coming much sooner than expected. It is already cold and fall-like, with snow already falling in Rapid City, South Dakota\u2013 not typical of September weather and something where the ice bucket challenge is not a good idea to begin with. \ud83d\ude09\nAuthor\u2019s note: The Bridges of Unstruttal will be featured later in the fall/ winter, as the author has yet to complete the second half of the leg from Artern to Naumburg.

Photo taken in August\nTag des offenen Denkmals to take place on 14 September.\nEvery year in September, Germany hosts the \u201cTag des offenen Denkmals,\u201d an all-day event taking place on a Sunday, where millions of visitors spend the day touring churches, museums, places of historic and natural interest and even city parks, whose history dates back hundreds of years. The visitors can also enjoy the historic bridges while they are at it. While the number of historic bridges at this open house is limited, tourists can take in a guided tour of the structures, learning about their history and in one case, how the bridges function as caterer of all forms of traffic that carries people and goods from point A to point B. In the case of one historic bridge that has been abandoned for many years, the heritage days can serve as a platform for a campaign to restore and reuse it for other purposes.\nAs many as a dozen of Germany\u2019s bridges are listed as having tour guides and other events taking place this Sunday. The Chronicles has a list of a few of them people can expect to see during this 18th annual event. For instance:\nLiesenbr\u00fccke in Berlin: This two-span railroad bridge passes over the roundabout, where four streets and three cemetaries meet in the Berlin suburb of Gesundbrunnen. Built in the 19th century and surviving World War II and the Cold War, the truss design of this bridge is similar to the Railroad Bridge spanning the Danube at Linz, Austria- a curved Whipple with riveted connections. Once serving a rail line connecting Berlin and Stettin in Poland and later, light rail (German: S-Bahn), the bridge has been abandoned since 1990, but preservationists and those associated with the bridge are fighting to see the bridge reused for bike traffic. A presentation on the bridge will take place at 4:00pm on the Tag des offenen Denkmals with some information available on how to support the efforts in saving the structure. More information online by clicking here.\nDrususbr\u00fccke at Bingen (Rhein): Touted as the oldest stone arch bridge remaining along the Rhine corridor between Frankfurt and Cologne, this 11th century stone arch bridge is located over the Nahe just before its confluence with the Rhine River. It was named after Drusus, the Roman who led his troops to the region at the time of Roman expansion and may have been the person engineering the first crossing near Bingen. The stone arch bridge has survived several wars, having been restored three times- the last time in 1952. One can see the bridge during the Tag des offenen Denkmals between 10am and 4pm, obtaining information about the bridge\u2019s history on site. Yet do not forget to stay in the evening for some night photos. More information here.\nTauberrettersheim: Located northwest of Rothenburg ob der Tauber along the Tauber River in Bavaria, the stone arch bridge was the work of Balthasar Naumann, built in 1733 and featuring five arches. The bridge was rebuilt in 1947 and still serves its function like it did in the past- the gateway to the town famous for its Barocke architecture and arts and crafts. The bridge is part of the festival where several stands featuring locally handmade goods on this day. More information can be found here.\nAutobahnmeisterei and Bridge at Erkner: Located along the Berliner Ring (Motorway Rte. 10) in Erkner, southeast of Berlin, the Meisterei features a mechanic shop for automobiles, an administration office responsible for the upkeep of the motorway and a silo with a gallery of photos, artefacts and other information pertaining to the Autobahn system in Berlin and Germany. Also featured is the remains of the deck girder bridge that had once carried Motorway Rte. 10 and was built in 1942, the same time as the Meisterei. Upon its replacement in 1996, a section was placed on the lawn of the Meisterei as a monument, and together with the building complex itself, has been restored for the public to see. More information on the open house and its history can be found here.\nCarl-Alexander-Bridge in Dornburg: Spanning the Saale River near Dornburg, 10 kilometers north of Jena in eastern Thuringia, the three-span riveted Parker through truss bridge was built in 1892 to replace a 14th century covered bridge destroyed in the flooding. Since 2000, the bridge has been reduced to just bike and pedestrian traffic, but is structurally in dire straits. Since 2006, the preservation organization has been raising funds to refit the bridge to make it safer and more family friendly. The festivities on the Tag des offenen Denkmals will rake in more visitors and funding possibilities in hopes that enough money is raised in order to start with the rehabilitation work next year. More on the events on this day, which features breakfast and jazz music, a presentation and tour of the bridge and a tour of the Dornburg castle can be found here. As Jena will be featured in the Chronicles\u2019 bridge tour, more on this bridge will come soon.\nRendsburg High Bridge: Spanning the Baltic-North Sea Canal, the 1913 bridge complex features a north loop approach span and the main span- a cantilever Warren through truss rail span carrying rail service between Flensburg and Hamburg and underneath, a transporter span carrying vehicles and people across the canal. The masterpiece of Friedrich Voss has been considered a national landmark since 1988 and a guided tour will be provided to talk more about the bridge. Two tours will take place in the afternoon at the bridge terasse on the Rendsburg side of the crossing. More information available here.\nOsch\u00fctztal Viaduct in Weida: Built in 1884, the Town lattice deck truss viaduct has a length of 185 meters and is 28 meters high above the ground. The landmark of Weida, which can be seen from the east entrance of the city as well as from the train station 1 km to the west, was the work of Claus K\u00f6pcke and Hans Manfred Kr\u00fcger, who later built the Blue Wonder Bridge in Dresden. The bridge served rail traffic in eastern and southern Thuringia, connecting Weida with Gera in the north, Saalfeld in the southwest and Plauen to the southeast. It was closed to traffic in 1984 and has been sitting unused ever since. The organization is looking at renovating the bridge for reuse either as a tourist railroad attraction or for bike and pedestrian use. In connection with its 130th birthday, a guided tour and other festivities are being planned for that day. More details here. The Chronicles will feature more information on the plans for this bridge when they come.\nIf you want more information on other places you can see while travelling through Germany this weekend, please check out the link, where all the places of interest are having their open houses. There, you will find all the information you need on the events taking place and when. The link is right here.\nThis year\u2019s event has more bridges than in year\u2019s past, and this in its 18th year. This leads to the question of other bridges that should have open houses on this day so that tourists can visit them. If you know of one or more particular bridges that should be considered for future Tag des offenen Denkmals, place your comments here as well as in the Chronicles\u2019 facebook page and your reasons why.\nBy Bridgehunter's Chroniclesin Bridge Profile Europe and elsewhere, News 9.

The state\u2019s only Waddell pony truss bridge that has been a centerpiece of the park since 1990. Photo taken in August 2014\nWhile the 2014 Othmar H. Ammann Awards are only a couple months away, the Bridgehunter\u2019s Chronicles is already taking entries for two categories: The City Tour Award and Best Example of a Restored Historic Bridge. The reasons are twofold:\n1. 2014 has been a year of record number of historic bridges being restored in the United States, both in terms of covered bridges and bridges made of concrete and metal that are more than 50 years old- a reversal of the trend from 2013, where several key historic bridges were lost to demolition or severely damaged by overweight trucks and arson.\nWhile some of the examples posted in the last half year can be seen on the Chronicles\u2019 facebook and twitter pages, the Chronicles would like to look at how the bridges were restored and the efforts that were undertaken by the public to have their historic symbol of their communities restored. A page on Best Preservation Examples is already on the Chronicles\u2019 page with an opportunity for you to contribute.\n2. The City Tour category was introduced last year, being spun out from the Best Kept Secret Award and features cities and regions with a cluster of historic bridges that exist, ranging from villages, such as Bertram, Iowa, to parks like the Historic Bridge Park in Michigan, to cities, like Lubeck and Halle in Germany. This category was well received to a point where it will be introduced again this year, but will go even further. The Chronicles is featuring a page on Bridge Tours and Lost Bridges, where you have an opportunity to look at the bridges you can expect to see when visiting the regions. A handful of cities and regions have already been posted (you can click here), and we would like to expand it based on your contributions.\nHere is your opportunity to contribute as a guest writer or interviewee for both categories. If you either:\nHave a historic bridge that has recently been restored or is currently undergoing a rehabilitation process or\nKnow of a city, county/district or region that has more than four bridges that are more than 60 years of age and have some historical significance or\nKnow of a region that was once populated with historic bridges but has now dwindled to one or two left,\nThen provide a summary of 1-3 pages with information on the bridges or restoration project, as well as some photos of the bridges, to be sent to Jason Smith at the Chronicles at: flensburg.bridgehunter.av@googlemail.com.\nIt will then be showcased on the Bridgehunter\u2019s Chronicles for reader to look at and perhaps use either as a reference for their own bridge restoration projects or an incentive to visit these regions. The examples will automatically be nominated for this year\u2019s Ammann Awards, where the people will vote on in December and the winners will be announced in January.\nEntries for this year\u2019s Ammann Awards are due 30 November. Those coming in after that date will automatically be nominated for the 2015 Ammann Awards. The Chronicles will accept all entries in the United States, Canada, Europe and other regions for the Awards will be divided up into American and International categories.\nPlease ensure that each photo has a source so that it can be cited accordingly, either on the Chronicles page, the Chronicles\u2019 flickr page or both. You may be contacted for an interview by the Chronicles with regards to the restoration project or additional information about the submitted bridges in the region. Please ensure that the contact information is made available so that the interview can be conducted as soon as possible. Announcements on the voting process will be made at the close of the submissions on 30 November. Any questions or clarifications needed can be submitted to the Chronicles.\nBy presenting examples of restored historic bridges as well as regions with a high number of historic bridges, people will be able to take the opportunity to have a look at the various success stories of preserved historic bridges while at the same marvel at the historic bridges that are characteristic of the regions, thus encouraging more people to visit and learn more about historic bridges. The Bridgehunter\u2019s Chronicles is dedicated to educating the public about the importance of historic bridges and their contribution to the history of transportation, as well as ways to preserve them for generations to come. The goal is to preserve the past in the present for people in the future to see and learn about them.\nImportant Announcement: Entries for the other categories- Best Bridge Photo, Bridge of the Year, Mystery Bridge, Lifetime Achievement, Best Kept Secret (individual bridge), and the Author\u2019s Choice Awards will be taken starting October 1st. More information will follow, but those interested in nominating their bridge(s) may want to have them prepared for submission to the Chronicles beforehand.\nBy Bridgehunter's Chroniclesin Bridge Preservation, Bridge Profile Europe and elsewhere, Bridge Profile USA, Bridge Tour, News, Practices, Smith Awards 4.

The form and content of a Renga is made up of complex rules, some of which I have taken and translated into a musical language. For example, a renga is made up of a chain of stanzas, 17 and 14 syllables in length used alternately. I translated this into quarter note or eight note beats and used this to guide the phrase lengths and duration of the individual pieces. The five movements represent the seasons in Japanese tradition; New Year is seen as a season of its own.

        "raw_content": "Idiot Lawmakers Think You Should Go to the Dentist to Get an Abortion\nFlorida just passed a bill to effectively defund Planned Parenthood. Anti-abortion legislators say that women seeking reproductive care can just go to an elementary school or a foot doctor instead, but the Riverview Foot and Ankle Specialists were very...\nEarlier this month, Republican lawmakers in Florida signed off on anti-abortion bill HB 1411. The bill, which passed in the state senate 25-15, is similar to laws that have passed in Texas, Louisiana, and Ohio that put severe restrictions on reproductive health clinics. Legislation like this, known as Targeted Regulation of Abortion Providers\u2014or TRAP laws\u2014requires women's health providers to jump through unnecessary and expensive hoops, like gaining \"admitting privileges\" at nearby hospitals. Politicians who support TRAP laws say that they're making clinics safer, but in the states where these laws have been enacted, nearly all women's health providers have been forced to shut down, leaving women with very few options for reproductive care. In Florida, HB 1411 would effectively defund Planned Parenthood clinics and prohibit them from taking Medicaid.\nBut Florida politicians say that women who rely on Planned Parenthood for affordable care should be worried. In fact, the bill's co-sponsor, Colleen Burton, offered up a list of alternatives for women seeking birth control, pap smears, and other reproductive services. \"We have 52 federally qualified health centers, the counties have health departments, physicians' offices, independent clinics would be eligible if they applied and met the requirements,\" Burton said, according to the Guardian.\nRead More: Looking Back on a Horrendous Year for Abortion Rights\nThe publication also reports that during the hearing for the bill, advocates for HB 1411 repeatedly insisted that \"there are 29 federally funded public health centers for every one Planned Parenthood health center in the state, implying that the defunding of Planned Parenthood would have little impact on patients.\"\nThat ratio, however, is based on this list of all of Florida's federally qualified health centers (FQHCs). The majority of the health centers listed, which include middle schools and foot doctors, have nothing to do with reproductive care. We're pretty sure you can't get a breast exam or an IUD at Flamingo Elementary School. But just to be certain, we called up a few of Florida's supposed Planned Parenthood alternatives to see what services they offer:\nDental Care East\nSTD screening: No\nPap smears: No\nClinical breast exams: No\nBirth control: No\nAbortion: No\nHPV vaccinations: No\nArcadia Family Optometry Center\nRiverview Foot and Ankle Specialists\nMuch as women in Florida were shocked to hear their representatives suggest that they go to the dentist for birth control, the dentists and optometrists we called didn't think it made sense to direct our inquiries about reproductive services at them. And they're obviously right\u2014it doesn't! But apparently anti-abortion lawmakers don't actually care whether women have viable options for reproductive care.\nAccording to data from the Guttmacher Institute, there are 126 federally qualified health centers in the state that provide contraceptive services; that's a fraction of the lengthy list of \"alternatives\" that sponsors of HB 1411 have pointed to. In actuality, the Guardian reports, there are only five federally funded reproductive health clinics per Planned Parenthood. Based on the disastrous outcome of TRAP laws in other states\u2014most notably in Texas, where abortion access and women's health clinics have been limited, causing a 35 percent decline in women using the most effective methods of birth control and an increase in births among low-income women\u2014that's not enough.",

I joined the masses queuing outside my church and then packed into the hall to hear the big new thing in the Christian world. A few years before in what was know as the Toronto Blessing I had stood awed in meetings and fallen prostrate. There was undoubtedly a little of me mimicking what those to my left and right were doing, but that was not the entirety.\nBeing ahead of Christian culture was what mattered.\nWhen I got to university and people would go on about Delirious I would roll my eyes, it was no longer cool to be into them. When someone had the great idea to do a 24-7 prayer room, I said I could do that in my sleep.\nI\u2019d flippantly pontificate on whether DJ led worship was really suitable for a congregation. But also make sure people knew I\u2019d done break dancing sessions in a disused and refashioned train station in Germany. When cell groups, small groups, D groups, life groups, connect groups, were being discussed I\u2019d have a couple of handy mnemonics or aphorisms up my sleeve; I\u2019d find a way to segue in that I\u2019d done a seminar on cell group multiplication. I\u2019d be one of those people who wouldn\u2019t clap, or stand, or raise my hands, when the host or worship leader said to, because, you know, worship is about us choosing to worship.\nI got Christian culture and I thought I was better than it. I would raise my eyes and sneeringly remark at the queues of people waiting to get a photo with Tim Hughes. Until someone else noted my own remark was designed to draw attention to myself.

I\u2019d been in Cambodia for just a little over a week, but the time I was gone failed to do justice to the intensity of the experience. Seeing communities overcoming poverty, and churches working for the good of their neighbours. Hearing about a regime in living memory that saw the deaths of a quarter of the population, many tortured and executed, many more dying from starvation and disease. Experiencing hospitality from a church of a dozen people.\nI thought perhaps I would have a lot to process and a long post of reflection to scribe. In fact, it was rather simple, the good was great, the opportunity brilliant, the place beautiful and the food wonderful (mostly). The things that were hard, were not really that hard. It was tiring, exhausting, and has taken me almost as long as I was there to begin to feel human again. The burden I felt we carried through the trip was the attempt to encourage new supporters to back Tearfund and help communities such as those we were meeting in Cambodia become self-reliant and shrug off the anvil of poverty weighing them down. It was awkward, and it was tough, and we failed to achieve what we had set out to do. I found that very hard, and Rich has also written about this.\nMore than anything I was overcome by the beauty of the place I had spent a few precious days. And the chance to move beyond the sights and sounds of the capital and share meals with people in their houses, and hear the hopes and dreams they shared, and the problems that together they were going to overcome.\nAs I barely crawled along the footpath outside Bermondsey tube station with a rucksack on each shoulder I bumped into a friend and uttered some incoherent words. She offered to carry my bags, I turned down the help and staggered on, regretting my refusal to inconvenience her a few streets later. I had spent a week seeing and writing about the virtue about helping one another, and yet I carried on alone. Continue reading \u2192\nMen strapped into floating beds, and other things we don\u2019t understand\nFebruary 19, 2014 November 27, 2014 Danny Webster Leave a comment\n\u201cWhy is the man strapped into the bed Grandma?\u201d And there begun the attempt to explain gravity to a two and a half year old during her bed time story as she pointed at the picture book. But she wasn\u2019t taken in. \u201cWhy is the bed floating in the sky?\u201d\nThis grandmother didn\u2019t tell the young girl to stop being stupid because you know, bed\u2019s don\u2019t fly. Nor did she say stop asking questions, just accept that the bed is floating in the sky.\nSmall children are inquisitive, they ask questions, and they know when you\u2019re not given them the full answer. They keep asking questions, they want to understand. Because beds stay on the floor and people aren\u2019t strapped into beds. So why is the man strapped into the bed, and why is the bed floating round the sky?\nIf this young girl decided to start a global conversation about beds flying around the sky and the inequity of men being strapped into such beds we might find it cute, we might admire her pluck and wish her well.\nBut we\u2019d also want to encourage her to look at some books, consider what others have said and discovered in the past as they explored the same dilemma. Why does the apple fall from the tree? Why do objects float in space?\nI don\u2019t really understand why beds float through space, or would if there were any out there. You can tell me it is about gravity, and why that disappears in space. You can explain to me the pull of the earth, the moon and the tides. I can read and I can learn. And this makes me think, perhaps I should understand a little more about gravity \u2013 I have stopped asking the questions that are obvious to a small child and just accepted that when I get to bed tonight I don\u2019t need to be strapped in.",

To be honest, Bill Condon\u2019s Beauty and the Beast looks to be an almost shot-for-shot remake of the original animated film. Not that that is a bad thing mind you, there\u2019s something to be said for faithfulness to source material. I\u2019m into it.\nOne thing I\u2019m actually very into about this is the general visual design and aesthetic of the film. This thing looks freaking beautiful, from the set designs to the costumes, to the bad ass looking Beast. Everything on display is gorgeous. Emma Watson looks like she\u2019ll make a solid Belle as well.\nDisney has been killing it with their recent live-action remakes, and this looks to be no different. While there isn\u2019t anything particularly outstanding about this trailer, it\u2019s solid enough for me to continue looking forward to the film. I\u2019m certain it\u2019ll be quite delightful.\nI know, what a ringing endorsement right? Anyway, we\u2019ll all be able to check Beauty and the Beast out in March of next year, which is looking more and more likely to be a bloodbath of film\u2019s battling out at the box office.\nWhat did you guys think of this trailer?

        "raw_content": "September 7, 2017 Environment, Ethics, Government, Press Releases, Public Lands, State Oversight, Utah\nCfA Calls on Utah Lands Commission to Disclose Interactions With Its Lawyers\nWASHINGTON, D.C. \u2013 Today, Campaign for Accountability (CfA) called on the Utah Commission for the Stewardship of Public Lands (\u201cLands Commission\u201d) to release all communications, documents, and invoices submitted by its law firm, Davillier Law Group, LLC. Press reports and public documents indicate the Commission has continued to work with Davillier, but the Commission has refused to release any documents or invoices prepared by the law firm. CfA also submitted formal Government Records Access Management Act (\u201cGRAMA\u201d) request to compel the Utah Legislature to release the documents.\nCfA Executive Director Daniel Stevens said, \u201cThe Lands Commission is denying Utah citizens the chance to evaluate the Commission\u2019s work. The Commission\u2019s co-chairs appear to be recklessly spending the $2 million entrusted to them by the legislature, while trying to hide the payments from the public. The Commission must come clean and release records showing how Davillier has been spending taxpayer dollars.\u201d\nLast June, the Lands Commission released a \u201cSummary of Legal and Relations Services,\u201d which disclosed the Commission\u2019s payments to its contractors, including Davillier. The document revealed that the Commission had instructed Davillier to begin drafting a lawsuit against the federal government. In July, CfA released a review of the Commission\u2019s expenditures and found numerous accounting problems including prohibited expenses, luxurious travel, and inflated charges.\nSince then, the Commission\u2019s co-chairs, Sen. David P. Hinkins and Rep. Kevin J. Stratton, have refused to release any documents related to the Commission\u2019s ongoing work with Davillier. The Commission ceased publishing Davilllier\u2019s invoices, which it previously had been uploading regularly to its website. And the legislature failed to release any documents related to Davillier in response to CfA\u2019s four separate GRAMA requests. On May 25, 2017, the Commission submitted a 49-page letter to the Department of the Interior regarding Secretary Ryan Zinke\u2019s review of national monuments. The Commission failed, however, to publish the comments on its own website \u2013 even though the comments \u2013 largely critiquing the creation of monuments \u2013 were prepared by Davillier.\nFinally, CfA\u2019s letter documents how the Commission appears to be in violation of its statutory authorization. For instance, the comments submitted to the Department of the Interior violate the requirement that the Commission only focus on the transfer of national lands to state control. The Commission is also required to meet at least eight times per year, but has failed to do so every year since it was created in 2014.\nStevens continued, \u201cThe Commissioners have failed to adequately monitor their $2 million budget, and \u2013 undoubtedly to hide their failure \u2014 have attempted to hide the spending to avoid being held accountable. It\u2019s time for the Senate leadership to step in and require the Commission to immediately release all of its interactions with its legal team so taxpayers can determine whether the Commission is acting lawfully.\u201d\nCfA is nonpartisan, nonprofit watchdog organization that uses research, litigation, and aggressive communications to expose misconduct and malfeasance in public life and hold those who act at the expense of the public good accountable for their actions.",

        "raw_content": "November 2, 2018 Corporate Responsibility, Google, In The News\nSome governments are pushing back against Google\u2019s powerful political influence \u2014 but not ours\nBy: Richard C. Owens, Financial Post, November 2, 2018\nThe battle on behalf of Big Tech against artists is becoming a rearguard action. The battle tactics practiced by Silicon Valley\u2019s lobby groups have been reprehensible, and the strategy of squeezing artists shortsighted. Behind it all, of course, is a powerful force: Google, which aggressively deploys its vast wealth to make sure that creators get a raw deal, and Google gets a good one.\nIf Google\u2019s interests seem to benefit a lot from its financial support for Open Media, it doesn\u2019t stop there. The scent of Google\u2019s paid influence is finally being picked up in all kinds of important places. In a recent court case in the United States, a judge required intervenors claiming to represent the public interest to disclose whether they had been funded by Google. They had. And the Google Transparency Project, run by the non-profit Campaign for Accountability, and The Wall Street Journal have publicized the extravagant number of intellectual property law academics funded by Google in Europe and the Americas. According to the Journal\u2019s reporting, for instance, Google has provided financing for hundreds of research papers defending it from regulatory incursion or other costs.\nSo this is the alarming situation we face now. Google\u2019s power and money are being deployed to promote views and sometimes even misinformation that benefit Google through a wide network of academics, lawyers and advocacy groups. Yet Google is an organization that does nothing so much as broker information. Is it wise or proper to allow any company to purchase its own terms for the integrity with which it treats others\u2019 information?",

        "raw_content": "My training completed in 2016 at the Savannah College of Art and Design in Savannah Georgia where I graduated with a Bachelor in Fine Arts in Graphic Design and a minor in Advertising. While studying at SCAD I had the pleasure to work and intern with many different companies in Atlanta and Savannah where I gained a range of experience working in the graphic design field - from a national magazine publication called South Magazine to an international fashion brand called Sienna & Bellini. Through my learning at SCAD and my work experience I gathered many skills including branding and identity, logo design, app and web design, presentation design, motion graphics, advertising, and illustration. My work became a melting pot of these skill sets and experiences making me the multidisciplinary designer I am today.\nAfter graduation I was offered an internship position in Los Angeles as a digital design intern for the digital agency Razorfish. Nervous but excited, I moved to Los Angeles and interned with the company during the Summer. Looking back, I could not have asked for a better experience coming right out of college. Over the course of the summer I got to work on a variety of projects and formed great relationships with the people I worked with. The west coast environment and talented people I worked with inspired me every day. Following my internship at Razorfish I was offered another internship position with one of my favorite companies Adult Swim. I\u2019ve always been fascinated and inspired by their work absorbing it through culture and entertainment. I enjoy tackling the creative challenges at Adult Swim through conceptually driven imagery and flavorful color palettes. I like my work to be visually expressive, bold and exciting and am thankful to have the freedom to express it at Adult Swim. In addition to my internship work, I am involved with a startup mobile app called Blinks, a unique digital sticker store designed by a community of artist including myself. Constantly creating new content to contribute to its ever-growing collection of bright, animated stickers.\nIn the future I aim to design for social, political and environmental change and work in collaboration with other fields in order to create the biggest impact for my designs.\nEmail Address: alexisks@gmail.com\nWebsite: alexiskelly.net",

        "raw_content": "Lisa and I met twenty-some years ago when both of us were teaching English as a Foreign Language in Seoul. While I stayed at my university, she moved on to teach in several different countries, earn a doctorate in Australia and do research in educational issues. She is now the director of the English Language Institute in Jackson College in Jackson, Michigan. We spoke via Skype. During the interview she frequently chuckled at memories of past difficulties.\nLisa Roegner\nProbably my most relevant and significant experience teaching abroad was in Afghanistan and Iraq, two post-conflict countries. I was fairly lucky in not having a lot of traumatic experiences\u2014[laugh] no, I\u2019ll take that back.\nI went to Afghanistan in 2006 to teach at the American University of Afghanistan, AUAF, a private school. I arrived before the school opened. The US had entered the country five years before, and it was reasonably \u201csafe,\u201d that is, with fewer suicide attacks than in recent years.\nThe AUAF was on the old campus of Kabul International School, which was closed when the Soviets invaded in 1979. One building had been completed on one building and was in progress on another. All the others were still in ruins from the civil war, the fighting between warlords that occurred after the Soviets left.\nAUAF building\nIn that environment you had to be flexible and resourceful because it was difficult to get things shipped into Afghanistan cheaply. For example, we got two shipping containers of books from a library overseas. We thought, \u201cOh, that\u2019s great.\u201d But we didn\u2019t have a librarian then, and it took a long time for the teachers to go through the books.\nWe had only one projector for PowerPoint. We bought white boards, but they weren\u2019t the best quality, so they kept falling off the classroom walls. You just never knew what was going to happen. For instance, we had a main generator and a backup. Once the guards turned them both on at the same time, and the power surge blew out a lot of lights. I was printing off lessons for my class, and my printer caught on fire. I had to go to the other building, which was connected to another generator, to get my handouts done. So, stuff like that.\nAUAF campus\nAt first we had fifty Afghan students between the ages of 18 and 25. We tried to get documentation about their high school diplomas and what-not, but in places like Afghanistan and even Iraq a lot of them had been destroyed. Records are not top priority during conflict. So we had difficulty finding out how much education the students had. We did some needs testing, then designed and put the students through a six-month program in English for Academic Purposes and math. The undergraduate program started afterwards.\nThe first fifty graduates\nI have to say we chose well because those fifty students went on, the majority of them got bachelor\u2019s degrees and a majority of the graduates got Fulbright scholarships. So that\u2019s something to be happy about.\nThe teachers all lived in the guesthouse. We didn\u2019t know when we\u2019d have power. We didn\u2019t always have water. For a couple of months we didn\u2019t have a washing machine, so I washed my clothes by hand and hung them outside to dry. In winter they mostly froze.\nWhen there was a suicide attack in the area, we congregated in a place in the guesthouse with no windows. We really bonded because we had to depend on each other and we tried to find the humor in the situation. One of the teachers had a master\u2019s in storytelling in addition to his master\u2019s in ESL. He would always tell stories. We\u2019d hear explosions and automatic weapons fired all around us, and we wouldn\u2019t know whether they\u2019d hit our building, but he\u2019d laugh and joke and make us all a little less scared. Those are really good memories.\nHow often did these attacks happen?\nIn those days, winter was kind of a quiet time, with the Taliban stuck in the snow up in the mountains. The spring offensive would start around April. Attacks could vary. Three years ago I was back in Kabul, and in about two or three weeks we had four attacks in various parts of the city. You just didn\u2019t know when and where it was going to happen.\nKabul itself tends to attract more violence because the government\u2019s there, the embassies are there\u2013both agencies the Taliban likes to target\u2013while in other parts of the country it\u2019s not that bad. In the two years of 2011-2013 when I was working in Herat, in western Afghanistan, there were no attacks.\nI would imagine dealing with some difficult cultural things in your daily life.\nI had more freedom in Afghanistan than I did in Iraq. In Iraq I was pretty much behind walls most of the time, as stated in my contract. In Afghanistan\u2014in both Kabul and Heart\u2014we were sometimes in lock-down. If it lasted three or four days you got kind of crazy.\nLisa on a hike along an ancient wall in Kabul with the Hindu Kush in the background\nBut Afghanistan is a beautiful country, very mountainous. Kabul is surrounded by the Hindu Kush When we could leave the guesthouses and the university allowed us, I\u2019d go up on the hillside with Elizabeth, my friend and colleague. There were mud-brick homes without power or running water. One of my students said they used car batteries to power light bulbs or whatnot. Once we got a bag of balloons, blew them up and let them fly into the sky. All these kids ran after them and caught them. They were laughing, and we were laughing. It was so much fun.\nAt the women\u2019s park in Kabul we\u2019d go to join the girls playing soccer. The women would be sitting around talking and then just start singing. It\u2019s quite beautiful at the lake about thirty minutes outside Kabul. There\u2019s a restaurant beside the lake where you could sit. People were so relaxed, and some would go swimming. Unfortunately, few people go there now because of attacks. This recent attack in Kabul was quite disturbing. Eighty people were killed.\nThe majority of Afghans are very friendly and hospitable. The family of one of my students was always inviting me over, taking me in like a host family. Like other Afghans, they had been through so much, but they just found a way to live their lives despite decades of conflict. Their resilience was amazing to me. I found that with the Iraqis as well. It fascinates me that people can live with so much trauma\u2014which is not to say that people didn\u2019t have problems or weren\u2019t affected by these events but that they seemed to overcome and find a way to be happy.\nI didn\u2019t ask, but I\u2019d pay attention if students wanted to tell me stories, particularly in their essays for writing class. I had a student I hadn\u2019t formed an opinion about because he was so shy and quiet. He was about nineteen when he started with the first group attending the university. In one of his essays he wrote about going to school when he was young and getting too close to a suicide attack. He wasn\u2019t hurt, hit but he was covered with the blood of the people around him. Reading that gave me a different perspective on him, I thought, \u201cOh, my God!\u201d Similar stories often came from students who were very quiet\u2014horrible things. .\nOne young woman wrote that her mother had been a university teacher, but she was killed in her classroom by a bomb meant for the dean. Seriously, I could tell you stories upon stories. The young people in my classes just were trying to get an education and have a chance at life. It was amazing what some of them had gone through. I really admired them.\nSo that was part of the reason why you were there, your respect and affection for your students?\nWhen the US invaded Iraq, I was out there protesting,\nYeah, me too. Where were you then?\nPortland Oregon the first time and continued protests to withdraw troops later were in Australia.\nI went to a large demonstration in Seoul. I thought it was okay since I was protesting against my own government and not against Korea.\nTo me, invading Iraq was just stupid. Afghanistan was slightly different, although Osama Bin Laden wasn\u2019t even in Afghanistan. He was in Pakistan. But I felt that, as much as I disagreed with the invasion, I wanted to be part of the education process. I wanted to help give people a choice of leaving the country or changing it. That was probably my primary reason for going back several times. After my first two and a half years I returned to Australia to work on my doctoral degree, but then I went back.\nSo what were things like in the classroom?\nWell, even in the public universities the typical classroom was coed, but the students tended to sit with girls on one side, boys on the other. Teaching at AUAF was nowhere near as challenging as teaching at a public university in the provinces. The main difference was class size. While AUAF limited its classes to about 25 students, my undergraduate classes at Herat had 50-75. There weren\u2019t always enough desks, and the classrooms were much smaller. Then there was the shoddy supply of electricity even in Kabul. American University had generators because we were a private school, but public universities struggled more.\nI taught in a classroom where the window panes were broken, letting the wind in, and it got really cold in the winter. I tried to cover the holes, but it didn\u2019t work. So I bought glass panes and some light bulbs. There was no money for things like that in the department budget. If a classroom light bulb went out, the students would pool their money for a new one, or maybe the teacher would buy one. The Iranian-made ones were better quality than the Chinese-made ones. I bought some $10 light bulbs, and then somebody stole them.\nHow did you manage with 75 kids in a class?\nWell, I did the best I could. My undergrads were all going to be English teachers. I taught methodology, syntax, writing and grammar, but I was determined to have a student-centered approach in the classroom. If I had a planned for them to work in groups I arranged the desks before class because otherwise with that many students rearranging the desks would take up too much class time. Testing was always an issue because the desks were so close together that cheating was too easy. We put the students outside because we didn\u2019t have a choice. All the professors did testing outside. I remember one young man whose hands were freezing, and he kept trying to warm them. I gave him my gloves. I said, \u201cYou really need these.\u201d\nWhat did this division between boys and girls look like in your classroom?\nWell, I mentioned that boys sat on one side and girls on the other. The invisible line was always there. There were times when I could mix them up\u2014with group work or whatnot. Some of them were okay with that. Except during the Taliban period, there was a tradition of coed higher education. It\u2019s not like the Arab countries where it\u2019s been traditionally separate, with males and females in different parts of the university. It\u2019s just that conservative wave came in, very similar to what happened in Iran as well, going from progressive to conservative. In photos from the 60s and 70s, women in Afghanistan and Iran dressed very much like Western women. They wore short skirts. They didn\u2019t cover their heads. They were very open.\nWhen I was teaching at the University of Pittsburgh in the English Language Institute, the Saudi students would group themselves in the same way, men on one side and women on the other. If a woman was wearing a skirt that hiked up over her knees when she sat down, she\u2019d pull out a handkerchief and put it over her knees, so as far as the men could see she was covered from below the knees up.\nReally? Oh, that\u2019s interesting.\nAnd the women would be giggling and speaking among themselves so that it was difficult sometimes to get them to stop. Did you find similar behavior or behavior that was a little strange?\nIn high school the students were separated by gender. University was the first time they were actually in the same classroom together. There was an interesting dynamic among the freshmen. I The boys didn\u2019t know how to talk to the girls. There was just a lot of posturing and showing off, They were what\u201418? Sometimes 20. Unfortunately, girls did get harassed, say if a boy liked a girl and she wasn\u2019t interested. I preferred the seniors. They were all so used to each other that being in the same class was no big deal.\n(Part 2 deals with the education of girls, restrictions on women and Lisa\u2019s research on distance education in Afghanistan.]\nA reader who once taught in Afghanistan writes: I really enjoyed Lisa\u2019s story. Looking forward to part II!!!\nCategories Elsewhere, TeachingTags Afghanistan, Safety, Teaching\tPost navigation",

        "raw_content": "Photos by Bianca Metz.\nEarlier this month, the University of Arizona College of Fine Arts presented degrees to 72 graduate and 215 undergraduate students at our Graduation Convocations in Crowder Hall and Centennial Hall respectively. I am tremendously proud of all of our accomplished outgoing students and cannot wait to follow their achievements as they embark on new journeys.\nLearning is a partnership between students and faculty, and the collaboration extends to include the support of friends and family \u2013 I congratulate all of you who played roles in our graduate success stories!\nDean Andrew Carnie gave the keynote speech at the Graduate Convocation, in which he praised graduate students for their creativity and the sense of purpose that invigorates their work each and every day. He spoke lovingly of his late father, a professor of English Literature, who was passionate about his collection of illustrated books from the 18th century and about poetry written in Lallans Scots, a language in decline. Dean Carnie said that he learned from his dad that things don\u2019t have to be expensive or all the rage to be important and valuable. He urged students to never let a desire for popularity or acceptance change their real vision or voice \u2013 that they should continue to be as bold as their creativity lets them be. The arts shape us, define us, and change us.\nOutstanding Graduate Teaching Assistant Awards were presented to Diana Yusupov (College of Fine Arts and Fred Fox School of Music), Galen Trezise (School of Art), Catherine Inzirillo (School of Dance) and Ken Phillips (School of Theatre, Film & Television). Diana Yusupov was also selected to address the graduate students.\nProfessor Theodore Buchholz praised Diana Yusupov\u2019s ability to balance her work as a member of the Graduate Quartet, a chamber music coach, a cello sectional coach for the Philharmonic, and principal of the Arizona Symphony.\nGalen Tresize was applauded by Professor Gary Setzer for inspiring students\u2019 interest in new material, pushing his students toward a high level of achievement, and adeptly critiquing artwork in a precise and meaningful way.\nCatherine Inzirillo beautifully embodies the equal emphasis placed on artistry and scholarship that is so deeply fundamental to the College of Fine Arts. Professor Amy Ernst spoke glowingly of Catherine\u2019s dedication to the empowerment of students, and of her finely honed leadership and responsibility to her art.\nIn a field of rapidly changing technology, said Professor Deanna Fitzgerald, Ken Phillips has made great strides in the effectiveness and relevance of his advanced automated lighting design class, all while creating beautiful lighting designs for numerous productions in the theatre program.\nAt the Undergraduate Convocation, Outgoing Director of the School of Theatre, Film & Television Bruce Brockman gave the keynote address to the undergraduates, in which he talked about the four qualities our students have developed \u2013 an artist\u2019s hand, the physical acts of making art; a scientist\u2019s mind, the ability to analyze and understand structure and pattern; a painter\u2019s eye, learning how to see; and a poet\u2019s heart, the ability to create an evocative and transformative work that is articulate and expresses meaning beyond its form. Director Brockman spoke eloquently about the undergraduate journey and these essential qualities of the artist and any well-educated person.\nElizabeth Denneau (College of Fine Arts and School of Art) and Marissa Munter (School of Theatre, Film & Television) received Kornhaber Awards. Other Outstanding Senior Awards were presented to Natalie Allen (School of Dance), Benjamin Nichols (Fred Fox School of Music), and Victoria Pereira (School of Theatre, Film and Television).

I enjoy playing piano, leading worship at church, gardening, and walking my 3 dogs. Serving as a Chaplain is a privilege. I love being able to reach people who may never enter a church by listening to their stories, caring for them in the middle of their work day, and having the opportunity to display God\u2019s love for them.\nOriginally from Cuba, I came to the US in 1968 and settled in the South Florida area, where I still reside. God allowed me to start ministering full time in 1986, first pastoring, then with CCA since 2002. My wife Susy and I have been married for 36 years and have two grown daughters and four grandchildren. I enjoy reading and playing tennis.\nI serve in the Houston,Texas area. I've been a Chaplain with CCA for 6 years and married to Caroline for nearly 20 years. We have 6 girls and we are a big soccer family. What I love about being a Chaplain is the ability to care for people from their starting point. I enjoy helping them see a Christian worldview in order to see Christ and his love for them.",

She is at the moment attending to a prior engagement which is very pressing.\nMay I interrupt briefly, your Honour?\n10:01 a.m., 9 Mar 2011\nIt's 808, your Honour, let me confirm that we have 808. It was originally 810. It's still 810. Your Honours, I thank you for the opportunity of addressing you this morning. My colleague, Mr Koumjian will take over.\nYour Honour, the actual paragraph is 1238, paragraph 1238. It's 1238 to 1239, paragraphs 1238 to 1239. I'm sorry, your Honour, there has been a little bit of confusion about the renumbering of paragraphs.\nYour Honour, regarding this point, the - there is absolutely no aspect of TF1-548's ...\nYour Honours, I can - I don't know whether it makes sense to - give you the correct -\nYour Honour, it's 984 again, 984, I'm sorry, it's a continuation of the same paragraph that I have dealt with.\nI move on to paragraph 994 but, your Honour, may I just be sure that I'm dealing - these are very late additions to my argument and ...\nI think I had finished with that actually. I move on to paragraph 986, and here the Defence assert that the probationary period for Foday Lansana, that's the same witness I just earlier referred to, relates to absconding from the NPFL and they cite his testimony of the 8th ...\nThank you, your Honour, I get the point. The quote is actually in paragraph 984, 984, and this is about eight lines, line 8 in paragraph 984.\nMay I proceed, your Honour?\nI take the point. All right. Your Honour, I am informed that, in fact, the paragraph I'm referring to is the correct paragraph in the corrected Defence final trial brief.\nIf we look at the quote that I just read, it contains a number of assertions. First, the Defence say that in some accounts, that's in quote: \"In some accounts, the arms and ammunitions were given to Charles Taylor - to Taylor by Bockarie.\"\nActually, in every account of this ...\nThank you, your Honour. Your Honour asked a short while ago about the paragraph - Justice Sebutinde asked about which paragraph I was reading this quote from. It's paragraph 1081, 1081. It actually does not fall within the range of paragraphs that I had earlier referred to that I'm ...\nI was referring to paragraph 1068 to 115. I'll find the particular paragraph where this specific quote falls. I'll come to that in a moment.\nI'm on paragraph 866. Also, regarding the same paragraph, 866, that is dealing with the alleged independent relationship that the Defence say Ibrahim Bah had with the RUF, a protected witness stated that when - that Foday Sankoh and Bah became friends in Liberia during the Liberian civil war, and ...\nYour Honour, with this evidence that there had been the training at Camp Naama and there is a place called Sokoto where this -- Foday Sankoh and his fighters were trained, and the - this witness, 532, referring to a plan having been made in Camp Naama was obviously referring to that ...\nYour Honour, I'm sorry, to get to the right paragraph -\nYour Honours -\nSo, in fact, as a result of that accidental incident, Charles Taylor decided straight away to start the war and not to wait. And so this witness was not there at all. He came back from reconnaissance mission and found that the attack had already taken place.\nThis is an incident that occurred at Bomaru, an incident where it is - it was testified in this Court that there was a misunderstanding amongst soldiers from both sides over a deal, and then that sparked off some fighting.\nThank you. This witness had a meeting, Foday Sankoh and Charles Taylor had a meeting with others, together with this witness, the next morning. Another witness, 523 - 532, TF1-532, he testified on 10 March 2008, and he, at pages 5669 to 5674, he states that the - there was a convoy ...\nYour Honour, this is a protected witness.\nThank you, Madam President, your Honours. I will be addressing this Court on the corrected Defence final trial brief, and I will be covering a range of topics, but principally, I'll refer to the paragraphs in that brief, and then we'll discuss the issues that we will be ...\nHearing, 8 February 2011\n12:32 p.m., 8 Feb 2011\nThank you for the question, Justice Sow, as you yourself have rightfully pointed there is a question of prosecutorial discretion and that in many ways determines, helps the Prosecutor or is a tool that the Prosecutor uses to determine which witnesses they wish to call in support of their case ...\n11:34 a.m., 8 Feb 2011\nThank you, your Honour. Madam President, your Honours continuing from where I left off, I will deal with Benjamin Yeaten.\nYeaten was also known as Unit 50 and he was Taylor's closest aide. Taylor and Yeaten's association began in Tajura Libya during Special Forces training when Yeaten was ...\nYour Honours, I had the honour of speaking at the opening of the Prosecution's case and I'm honoured to now speak at its close. During the opening statement I referred to the Sierra Leonean saying, \"Net long so tay, doh mus clean,\" meaning no matter how long the ...\nWitness: DCT-008 [On Former Affirmation]\n1:09 p.m., 31 Aug 2010\nYes, your Honour, it's still frozen, in the same position, but I have the broadcast from Madam Court Manager on. I should mention also that my case manager has a similar problem; her LiveNote completely went blank.\nThere is a pointer flashing. I was minded to reboot, but the problem I had this morning was that I couldn't even log in, so I'm a bit apprehensive of doing that. I don't want to get into a situation where I can't even get out ...\nMay I interrupt? I'm having problem with my LiveNote, suddenly got a message, and I clicked on it, it is kind of frozen. I'm not getting a feed now.\n11:57 a.m., 31 Aug 2010\nIt's with reference - regarding the reference counsel gave, I'm just trying to find the page. I'm not so sure, we have page 7034. Is it in relation to transcript of 8 of -\nJust a point of clarification.\nThat is correct, your Honour, the witness testified with protective measures, and the Prosecution does not object to the witness's identity being disclosed to this witness in private session. Obviously, the witness may be better able to respond to questions put to him by counsel if he were given ...\nGood morning, Madam President. Good morning, your Honours and counsel opposite. For the Prosecution this morning, myself, Mohamed A Bangura, and Ms Maja Dimitrova. Thank you.\n12:43 p.m., 19 Aug 2010\nI'm reading from page 77, line 4:\n\"Q. So what was the next news you heard concerning the\nwhereabouts of this group?\nA. Well, later I came to know, when we came to Makeni, my\noperator told me that he received an information from Buedu\nthat SAJ Musa had ...\n12:32 p.m., 4 Jun 2010\nOnly that, your Honour.\nYour Honours, the Prosecution requested two documents to be marked for identification, two photographs. The Prosecution will move the Court for the second of the two, that is, MFI-2, to be admitted as an exhibit. That is the photograph marked P0000864.\nYour Honours, there will no further questions for the witness. Thank you.\nThis was to serve a ritualistic purpose, correct?\nYou served him soup which was prepared in a ceremonial way, didn't you?\nAround the time that Sam Dokie was killed - after he was killed you did serve food to Mr Taylor, didn't you?\nYou have served Mr Taylor soup at some point in time, haven't you?\nI believe you misunderstood my question. I'm not talking about sell. You have served - served - food to Mr Taylor before, haven't you?\nYou served food to Mr Taylor - you've served food to Mr Taylor before, correct?\nMrs Yeney, that loyalty which you have for Charles Taylor is what brings you here today to testify in his favour, correct?\nYou could not seek re-election in the House of Representatives again because you did not have what it takes to run an election and face the people. You did not have it, did you?\nAnd the reason you did not run for it was because you did not have the popularity that it requires to run for that office. You were merely appointed there because of your loyalty to Charles Taylor, correct?\nAfter you left office - after your tenure in the House of Representatives you went back into business and you are again in the Marketing Association. With the support and popularity which you have told this Court you had, you haven't been made president of that association again, have you?\nI put it to you again that you held that position because of your loyalty to Charles Taylor, correct?",

        "raw_content": "Adkins, Norwood and company\n\u2018Black Renaissance\u2019: A Musical Resistance Against Racism!\nDefender Contributing Writers Brenda and Rick McCain\nRacism! It\u2019s a word that most are afraid to utter and even more are afraid to discuss. But this word has been a vital part of the Black culture and experience, and it has bound us with fear, hatred and kept us from the simplest part of humanity\u2026equality.\nIt is very important for ALL Americans to know something about the \u201cBlack experience\u201d that played a massive role in shaping the American culture and politics of this nation.\nWe all must also understand that being oppressed is a horrible stain within the Black race and culture, and many wish oppression was no longer a part of our history, even if this type of servitude has provided free labor to help build the world as we know it today.\nWriter, Director, Producer, and Founder of Black Ensemble Theater Jackie Taylor delivers with a stellar performance of \u201cThe Black Renaissance\u201d to open souls to see \u201cwhat color is your mind?\u201d This question was composed into one of the 9 fantastic songs that Jackie wrote to expose the question around racism.\nThe musical score in \u201cBlack Renaissance\u201d is nothing short of entertaining and uplifting.\n\u201cThe Black Renaissance\u201d takes you on a voyage of \u201cThe Black Experience\u201d in two eye-opening acts in which Taylor puts the truth on stage. Her passion to educate the audience is clear as she seeks to enlighten everyone about the type of world we live in, and what type of hidden and open racism we face on a daily basis.\nThe play features an evolving process from Africa to America, with music that makes you feel and reflect on life today and in the past for Blacks who had to live, survive and fight to be free. But what does it mean to be free?\nThis play is more than a moment in history that enlightens, educates and inspires. It is a musical resistance against that very powerful and unspoken evil called racism.\n\u201cThe Black Renaissance\u201d is about Black Lives Matter and it is a MOVEMENT of our reality told through song and dance to help us understand the systematic process of racism and oppression. This thought-provoking production exposes the truth of racism by getting to the root of what it is and why we must remove this horrible stain from our society.\n\u201cThe Black Renaissance\u201d takes us through hundreds of years of Blacks constantly developing a culture of love and self-worth within a society of hate, while trying desperately to fit in a world with people with whom they should have been considered as equals, yet were mastered over and controlled by whippings, punishments, slave codes (the law) and the ungodly use of religion.\nThe play explores the great \u201cdivide and conquer\u201d in order to keep Blacks enslaved to their masters in hopes of slaves turning on each other through colorism for years to come and the lack of respect by calling a slave \u201cboy\u201d and \u201cgirl. It also shows how racism affects us even now when our president constantly promotes racial hatred and commands separatism and glorifies oppression.\nSo what is in a name? Can a name define your worth? Or in this case your race? The Black race has been broken down in so many different ways, which includes what we will be called and what we should answer to. This is evident by searching our subscribed documented names to describe Black Americans in census surveys as Colored, Negro, Black and African American, which does not begin to describe the Black race as a part of the human race and all that we have been through.\nHowever, even though we have lived \u201cThe Slave Syndrome Blues,\u201d our hope has always been \u201cOh Freedom.\u201d\n\u201cThe Black Renaissance\u201d is another one of Jackie Taylor\u2019s great works on creating a strong institution committed to eliminating discrimination by allowing us to get a closer look at the context of racism. Although Blacks have only been free for 152 years, the race still carries the multiple burdens on their backs with lashes of pain and broken dreams of hope.\nWe highly recommend that you see this wonderful production with your family so that you will be moved to join the resistance and help fight racism.\nBlack Ensemble Theater Continues 2017 Dance Theater Season With the World Premiere of the Black Renaissance (A Musical Resistance Against Racism)\nMichael Adkins, Brian Boller, Jana\u2019ah Coates, Rueben Echoles, Lemond Hayes, Wendell Jackson, Dwight Neal, Linnea Norwood, Rhonda Preston, LeKeya Shearrill, Henri Slater, Lynn Solar and Levi Stewart.\nBlack Ensemble Theatre\t, Black Renaissance A Musical Resistance Against Racism\t, Jackie Taylor Theatre\t, Let's Play!",

        "raw_content": "Apostles Third Sunday\nThe Good Samaritan. Luke 10:25-37\nThe parable of the Good Samaritan is a much reflected and influenced story throughout the centuries since Jesus introduced it. Many institutions throughout the world are known with the name \u201cGood Samaritan,\u201d a fictitious character. However, the church fathers presented Jesus himself as a Good Samaritan who risked his life for saving the fallen humanity that was not helped by the teachers of the Law and Prophets of the Old Testament. Jesus who taught us that God seeks mercy than sacrifice (Mathew 9:13) has given us this touching story for a Christian charitable approach to people of all race who need our assistance.\n(25) There was a scholar of the law who stood up to test him and said, \u201cTeacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?\u201d (26) Jesus said to him, \u201cWhat is written in the law? How do you read it?\u201d (27) He said in reply, \u201cYou shall love the Lord, your God, with all your heart, with all your being, with all your strength, and with all your mind, and your neighbor as yourself.\u201d (28) He replied to him, \u201cYou have answered correctly; do this and you will live.\u201d\n(29) But because he wished to justify himself, he said to Jesus, \u201cAnd who is my neighbor?\u201d (30) Jesus replied, \u201cA man fell victim to robbers as he went down from Jerusalem to Jericho. They stripped and beat him and went off leaving him half-dead. (31) A priest happened to be going down that road, but when he saw him, he passed by on the opposite side. (32) Likewise a Levite came to the place, and when he saw him, he passed by on the opposite side. (33) But a Samaritan traveler who came upon him was moved with compassion at the sight. (34) He approached the victim, poured oil and wine over his wounds and bandaged them. Then he lifted him up on his own animal, took him to an inn and cared for him. (35) The next day he took out two silver coins and gave them to the innkeeper with the instruction, \u2018Take care of him. If you spend more than what I have given you, I shall repay you on my way back.\u2019 (36) Which of these three, in your opinion, was neighbor to the robbers\u2019 victim?\u201d (37) He answered, \u201cThe one who treated him with mercy.\u201d Jesus said to him, \u201cGo and do likewise.\u201d\n(25) There was a scholar of the law who stood up to test him and said, \u201cTeacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?\u201d\nThere was a scholar of the law\nThe scholar of the law does not mean like the regular lawyers of our time who are experts in civil or criminal law. The lawyer who questioned Jesus was an expert in the laws of Moses given in the first five books of the Bible called Torah or Pentateuch. Some identify him as a scribe. The scribe was an expert in the whole Old Testament who used to make copies of the Holy Scripture and served in the synagogues as reader and interpreter of the Bible. The difference between a scribe and scholar of the law is that the scholar of the law was a scribe who specialized in the Mosaic laws than in other sections of the scripture. Such scholars of the Torah were in demand because the whole lives of the Israelites were governed by the written laws and their interpretations.\nWho stood up\nThis gives us a setup of the situation. Jesus might have been preaching in a house like that of Lazarus or in a synagogue. The listeners might have been sitting around him. The scholar stood up to attract the attention of Jesus, the teacher.\nTo test him\nThe scholar might have raised the question to Jesus to evaluate his knowledge in the field rather than to improve himself. There are people who raise spiritual or moral questions to religious leaders not to improve their understanding but to evaluate the preacher or to show one\u2019s own expertise in the subject.\n\u201cTeacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?\u201d\nA rich man also had asked Jesus the same question. (Mark 10:17). The inheritance of eternal life was a controversial issue between Sadducees who did not believe in the resurrection of the dead (Mark 12:18-27) and Pharisees who believed in life after death. (Acts 23:8). Even for those who believed in the life after death, the question of what must be done to inherit eternal life was not clear.\nThere were teachings on the life after death in the Old Testament but they were less and some of them were unclear. \u201cYour dead shall live; their bodies shall rise. You who dwell in the dust, awake and sing for joy! For your dew is a dew of light, and the earth will give birth to the dead.\u201d (Isiah 26:19). Daniel 12:1-3 is another clear example of the prophesy of the resurrection and final reward or punishment. However, the issue was that these and similar writings on the life after death were prophetic works or psalms, and not in the earlier laws given by Moses in which this scholar of the law was specialized. Moses gave importance to long and fulfilling life in the promised land in Canaan for those who keep the commandments of God. \u201cHonor your father and mother. Then you will live a long, full life in the land the LORD your God is giving you.\u201d (Exodus 20:12).\nIt was Jesus who gave more clarity on resurrection of the dead, the final judgement and reward or punishment after death.\n(26) Jesus said to him, \u201cWhat is written in the law? How do you read it?\u201d\nOrthodox Jews used to wear two small square leather boxes containing selected texts from the Torah. They were worn on the wrist of the left arm and on the forehead. Jesus must have been pointing to these phylacteries which the lawyer was wearing when he asked for what was written in the law. When the expert in the law tried to test Jesus, Jesus made the lawyer to answer by asking him a question in turn.\n(27) He said in reply, \u201cYou shall love the Lord, your God, with all your heart, with all your being, with all your strength, and with all your mind, and your neighbor as yourself.\u201d\nThis combined passage from Deuteronomy 6:4-5 and Lev. 19:18 was favorite to Jews and was written on their phylacteries. They used to recite this every day morning and evening. \u201cTake to heart these words which I command you today. Keep repeating them to your children. Recite them when you are at home and when you are away, when you lie down and when you get up. Bind them on your arm as a sign and let them be as a pendant on your forehead. Write them on the doorposts of your houses and on your gates.\u201d (Deut. 6:6-9). So, Jesus knew that the Jewish lawyer would answer this central message of the Holy Scripture to his question.\n(28) He replied to him, \u201cYou have answered correctly; do this and you will live.\u201d\nJesus had only one thing to add: \u201cdo this and you will live\u201d into eternity. Jesus had noticed that though the Jews recited this central theme of the scripture every day twice, they were not practicing it. Mere knowledge or recitation of the law of love of God and neighbors was not sufficient. Religion is not merely for learning but for practicing.\n(29) But because he wished to justify himself, he said to Jesus, \u201cAnd who is my neighbor?\u201d\nBecause he wished to justify himself\n(30) Jesus replied, \u201cA man fell victim to robbers as he went down from Jerusalem to Jericho. They stripped and beat him and went off leaving him half-dead.\nWent down from Jerusalem to Jericho\nJesus gives this story based on probable crimes happening on the dangerous way from Jerusalem to Jericho. Within a short distance of 21 miles, a person was traveling down from Jerusalem that is 2,300 feet above sea level to Jericho that is 1,300 feet below sea level. While going down 3,600 feet, the road was narrow, rocky with caves and had sudden turnings. Robbers used to attack the travelers and so the road was nicknamed as \u201cbloody way.\u201d\nThe victim in the story is a man without any other details like his race, nationality, or class. Jesus gave importance to the suffering man regardless of who he was. He could probably be a Jew because he was on his way from Jerusalem to Jericho.\n(31) A priest happened to be going down that road, but when he saw him, he passed by on the opposite side.\nThis parable of the Good Samaritan has a priest and a Levite as characters. There is difference in their designation. All priests were Levites, but not all Levites were priests. The Levites descended from the Levi who was one of the 12 sons of Jacob. Before God\u2019s covenant with Israelites at Mount Sinai, all the heads of the families were priests. After the sin of Golden Calf, only the Levites declared faithfulness to God. So, they were selected for divine service at the Holy Place in the tabernacle and later in the Temple of Jerusalem. God selected Aron, the brother of Moses who was also a Levite as the chief priest. His sons and their descendants were priests and high priests.\nThe priest was also going from Jerusalem, probably after his priestly duty in the Temple of God. Jericho was the second city of Judea were many priests and Levites lived. So, it was natural that priests and Levites who do the Temple service used to travel back and forth between Jerusalem and Jericho.\nHe passed by on the opposite side.\nThe priest used the opposite side of the road for his safety to avoid uncleanliness by touching a dead body if the victim would die. Or he did not want to take the risk of attack from the same robbers. The victim\u2019s dreadful situation was a sure proof of the presence of the robbers there. So, he ran for his safety without caring for the victim.\n(32) Likewise a Levite came to the place, and when he saw him, he passed by on the opposite side.\nThe Levite was little more considerate because he looked at the person and understood his situation. Though he felt sympathy, he also did nothing and went on the opposite side for his safety. This kind of approach to those in need has been copied throughout centuries by humanity. Mere sympathy without action for help is also a sin.\n(33) But a Samaritan traveler who came upon him was moved with compassion at the sight.\nThe Jews would hate Jesus mentioning of Samaritans and presenting a Samaritan traveler as a good man in the parable. There had been historical hostility between Jews and Samaritans. The Samaritans were the occupants of the territory formerly assigned to the tribes of Ephraim and the half-tribe Manasseh. Samaria was its capital. When the Assyrians deported and scattered in captivity the ten tribes of Northern Israel, \u201cThe king of Assyria brought people from Babylon, Cuthah, Avva, Hamath, and Sepharvaim, and settled them in the cities of Samaria in place of the Israelites. They took possession of Samaria and dwelt in its cities.\u201d (2 Kings 17:24). They intermarried the remaining Israelites in the newly occupied area. The pagans who inhabited Samaria continued the worship of their idols. So, God send lions among them that killed some people. King of Assyria sent them an Israelite priest from exile to teach them the worship of the God of the land. They learnt the books of Moses and began to worship the God of Israel but continued their idolatry as well. \u201cThey were both venerating the LORD and serving their own gods.\u201d (2 Kings 17:33). Because of this mixed race and mixed worship, the Samaritans were considered \u201chalf-breeds\u201d and Jews hated them.\nThe animosity increased because of several other reasons: (1) When the Jews returned from Babylonian exile and started rebuilding the Temple and the walls of Jerusalem, the Samaritans opposed it and halted it for some time. (Nehemiah 6:1-14). (2) The Samaritans perpetuated their idolatrous worship by building a temple for them on Mount Gerizim. (3) Samaritans offered refuge for all the outlaws of Judea. (Joshua 20:6-7; 21:21). (4) The Samaritans while accepting the Torah, rejected other Jewish scriptures and Jewish traditions. Hence, Jews hated Samaritans and had no contact with them. (John 4:9. 8:48).\nJesus drew a contrasting picture between Jews and Samaritans in the practice of faith. The Samaritan whom Jews hated and considered worthless because of his non-Jewish beliefs and practices became compassionate and helping neighbor for the helpless and suffering Jew.\n(34) He approached the victim, poured oil and wine over his wounds and bandaged them. Then he lifted him up on his own animal, took him to an inn and cared for him.\nUnlike the priest and Levite who passed by on the opposite side avoiding any contact with the victim, the Samaritan expressed his compassion in action. When the priest and the Levite thought of what bad would happen to them if they take care of the victim, the Samaritan thought of what would happen to the victim if he wound not care for him. With this difference in approach, the Samaritan took the risk of being attacked by the robbers who had attacked the victim. The Samaritan spend oil, wine and cloth he had, as first aid for the victim. These were used to heal the sore made by circumcision. Forgetting the Jewish-Samaritan rivalry, he treated the victim as his own. He spent time from his busy life, he provided the service of his ass to carry the victim while he went on foot to the nearby inn and nursed him there.\n(35) The next day he took out two silver coins and gave them to the innkeeper with the instruction, \u2018Take care of him. If you spend more than what I have given you, I shall repay you on my way back.\u2019\nThe Good Samaritan spent one night with this sick stranger taking care of him in the inn and making sure that he was getting well. Two silver coins during those days was the average wage of a laborer for two days. That was given for the victim\u2019s food, lodging, and medical expenses because he had nothing left with him after the robbery. That amount was more than what was due to the innkeeper. The Good Samaritan was kind enough to meet the expense of the continued treatment of this Jew who might have been one among those who hated Samaritans. This shows that his compassion was not just an ordinary impulse of sympathy. Moreover, it was a generosity from his heart.\nAccording to St. Paul, Jesus is the wisdom of God. (1 Cor. 1:24). So, the teachings of Jesus have extraordinary meaning and everlasting relevance. Some of the parables of Jesus have in-depth meaning than the simple message that we understand first. Though parable is a simple story to illustrate a spiritual or moral lesson, some of them have allegorical applications to the salvation history. In an allegory, there will be two levels of meaning. Besides the surface story, there will be a symbolic level with the characters, place and plot match with story of the kingdom of God. The early church fathers have given an allegorical interpretation to the parable of the Good Samaritan.\nThe Parable of the Good Samaritan has a clear message without an allegorical interpretation. However, an understanding of the allegorical interpretation of this parable can help us realize the message from the perspective of the fall of mankind and redemption of humanity by Jesus as a Good Samaritan. Church fathers like Irenaeus, Clement of Alexandria and Origen in the second century, and Chrysostom, Ambrose and Augustine in the fourth and fifth centuries have given the allegorical interpretation of this parable. According to them, Jerusalem was the paradise and Jericho was the sinful world. Adam was \u201cthe man\u201d going down from Jerusalem. The robbers were Satan and his followers. The man was stripped off from his original grace and immortality. The priest is the Law and the Levite the prophets of the Old Testament period. Jesus is the Good Samaritan. The Jews had called Jesus a Samaritan while accusing him: \u201cAre we not right in saying that you are a Samaritan and are possessed?\u201d (John 8:48). The oil stand for the anointing with the Holy Spirit and wine for the blood of Jesus he offered for us. The beast is the body of Jesus that carried us to the inn, that is the church. The innkeeper is Apostle Peter and his successors. The promise of Samaritan that he will return to repay stands for the second coming of Christ. We would have been spiritually dead, if Jesus had not come to save us like the Good Samaritan who did not consider the religion or the status of the victim. The ancient Jewish leaders were more concerned about religious rituals and their own welfare than of the people they served. We are called to follow the example of Jesus, the Good Samaritan who sacrificed himself for all humanity who have been perishing from sin.\n(36) Which of these three, in your opinion, was neighbor to the robbers\u2019 victim?\u201d .\u201d\nInstead of giving a direct answer to the scholar of the law who raised the question of who is my neighbor, as an efficient teacher, Jesus let the scholar answer from the parable.\n(37) He answered, \u201cThe one who treated him with mercy.\u201d Jesus said to him, \u201cGo and do likewise.\u201d\nThough the lawyer did not like to acknowledge Samaritan as a good neighbor, he was obligated to answer that. He did not say the Samaritan, instead he answered in an indirect way: \u201cThe one who treated him with mercy.\u201d Then Jesus commanded the lawyer and other listeners to do as the Samaritan did. That means:\n1) We must take initiative in helping those in need and not waiting for them to seek our help.\n2) We should spend our time for those who need our care.\n3) We need to share the little resources we have like the wine, oil, cloth, means of transportation, and money as the Good Samaritan did.\n4) We should even be willing to risk our lives for others. The Good Samaritan could be attacked by the robbers while he was taking care of the victim.\n5) We should ask ourselves, what would happen to this man if I did not help him rather than what I would lose if I help him.\n1. God seeks mercy rather than sacrifice. (Hosea 6:6). Religious rituals become meaningful when we show mercy to others based on our love of God and love of neighbors.\n2. Any man who is in need is our neighbor. Religion, caste or nationality shall not be criteria for selecting our beneficiaries for support.\n3. God sends his help through people who help us like the \u201cGood Samaritan\u201d. We are also called to be \u201cGood Samaritans\u201d for others.\n4. The Old Testament Law, Prophetic teachings and other writings were given for the good of humanity. However, the religious leaders during the public ministry of Jesus had bypassed serving the suffering humanity and gave undue importance to rituals and selfishness. Our reading or study of the Bible should lead us to practice the message of the scripture.\n5. Jesus is the Good Samaritan and we are the victims of Satan. Jesus sacrificed all he had including his life to rescue us from the robbery of Satan and admitted us in the inn that is the Church. He will come again to take us with him to a healthy and glorious future. Let us continue to be protected and nourished by the church.",

        "raw_content": "4. In 2006 both applicants took out mortgages from Hungarian commercial/mortgage banks. Their loan agreements were denominated in Swiss francs. According to the terms of the agreements, the applicants were to bear the risk of any exchange rate fluctuations between the Hungarian forint and the Swiss francs.\n26. The Court has already had occasion to rule on allegations of intervention by the State, through the legislature, in order to influence the outcome of a court case. This was the situation that obtained, among others, in Stran Greek Refineries and Stratis Andreadis v. Greece (9 December 1994, Series A no. 301-B) and in Zielinski and Pradal and Gonzalez and Others v. France ([GC] nos. 24846/94 and 34165/96 to 34173/96, ECHR 1999-VII). On this subject, the Court reaffirms that, while in principle the legislature is not precluded from adopting new retrospective provisions to regulate rights arising under existing laws, the principle of the rule of law and the notion of fair trial enshrined in Article 6 preclude any interference by the legislature with the administration of justice designed to influence the judicial determination of a dispute, save on compelling grounds of the general interest (see Stran Greek Refineries and Stratis Andreadis, cited above, \u00a7 49, and Zielinski and Pradal and Gonzalez and Others, cited above, \u00a7 57). Any reasons adduced to justify such measures should be treated with the greatest possible degree of circumspection. Financial considerations cannot by themselves warrant the legislature substituting itself for the courts in order to settle disputes (see Azienda Agricola Silverfunghi S.a.s. and Others v. Italy, nos. 48357/07 and 3 others, \u00a7 76, 24 June 2014 and the authorities cited therein).\n27. In Stran Greek Refineries and Stratis Andreadis, two essential features led the Court to conclude that there had been an infringement of the right to a fair hearing: firstly, the Greek legislature\u2019s intervention in the case had taken place at a time when judicial proceedings in which the State was a party were pending; secondly, the fact that, after the parties had received the opinion of the judge-rapporteur recommending the dismissal of the State\u2019s appeal, the Court of Cassation had decided to adjourn the hearing on the ground that a draft law concerning the case was before Parliament (ibid., \u00a7 47). In Zielinski and Pradal and Gonzalez and Others, where also a violation of Article 6 \u00a7 1 of the Convention was found, the Court emphasised that the passing of legislation with retrospective effect had had the effect of endorsing the State\u2019s position in the proceedings that had been brought against it and which were still pending in the ordinary courts (ibid., \u00a7 58; see also, more recently and in the same vein, Azienda Agricola Silverfunghi S.a.s. and Others, cited above, \u00a7\u00a7 77-88, where the legislative intervention had the effect of definitely modifying the outcome of a pending litigation, endorsing the State position to the applicant companies\u2019 detriment, and where the Court emphasised that even assuming that the new law was interpretative in nature and had reinforced the original intention of the legislator, that fact, in itself could not justify an intervention with retroactive effect).\n28. However, there are significant differences between the present applications and those cases. A common feature of the cases previously examined by the Court lies in the fact that the State, which had been a party to the underlying court proceedings, was intervening through legislation in order to influence the outcome of pending judicial proceedings, to prevent proceedings being opened, or to render void final and enforceable decisions which recognised personal rights to receive payment. In the instant case, however, the State was not a party to the proceedings concerned. Moreover, as indicated in the explanatory memorandum attached to Act 1 (see paragraph 17 above), the sole purpose of the impugned legislation was to ensure that the principles laid down in the K\u00faria\u2019s Civil Law Uniformity Decision no. 2/2014 (see paragraph 7 above) were enforced directly, in respect of not only pending litigations but also non-litigated claims. The Court notes that the Uniformity Decision gave guidance on resolving the issues of foreign-currency-based consumer loan agreements. Therefore, it can be said that in the circumstances of the present cases the applicants could have foreseen a reaction by Parliament (see, mutatis mutandis, National & Provincial Building Society, Leeds Permanent Building Society and Yorkshire Building Society v. the United Kingdom, 23 October 1997, \u00a7 112, Reports of Judgments and Decisions 1997-VII, and OGIS\u2011Institut Stanislas, OGEC Saint-Pie X and Blanche de Castille and Others v. France, nos. 42219/98 and 54563/00, \u00a7 72, 27 May 2004; see also, a contrario, Azienda Agricola Silverfunghi S.a.s. and Others, cited above, \u00a7 84). In any event, there is no reason for the Court to assume that such guidance would not have had to be followed by the domestic courts in any case, even without the enactment of the new legislation.\n29. Consequently, the first applicant\u2019s action would, in all likelihood, have had the same outcome, if only after much more time-consuming court proceedings. The rationale of the impugned legislation was to ensure that all claims relating to the same subject matter could be resolved in a prompt and comprehensive manner, avoiding any inconsistency in case-law and also the overburdening of the judicial system (compare Gorraiz Lizarraga and Others v. Spain, no. 62543/00, \u00a7\u00a7 62-75, ECHR 2004-III).\n(Decizia din data de 19 decembrie 2017, B\u00e1rdi \u0219i Vidovics \u00eempotriva Ungariei, CE:ECHR:2017:1219DEC002751415)\n\u00cen multe privin\u021be, internetul a reu\u0219it s\u0103 ne transforme \u00een locuitori ai unui mic sat",

This project is developing an Oceanic General Circulation Model (OGCM) independent library for the simulation of marine ecosystems and biogeochemical cycles. The objective is to produce a flexible ocean biogeochemical modeling (OBM) tool that will facilitate research on a range of scientific questions. It will enable climate-timescale high-resolution simulations and permit tailoring model configurations aimed at very different research questions within a common code base, such as climate impacts on fisheries versus carbon-climate feedbacks. Coupled with the MPAS-O ability for local grid refinement, the OBM will be able to target regional systems with intensive observations, leading to robust constraints on model skill. The code base will be extensible from a scientific point of view, since modularization will facilitate revising the treatment of key processes. In addition, the code will naturally accommodate adding optional tracers systems for unique research questions, such as comparison to paleoceanographic observations. The OBM tool that this project develops will be freely available, thereby facilitating community participation and leveraging intellectual contributions from a broad array of researchers.",

        "raw_content": "ClockHistory.com Seth Thomas Products Adamantine\nHistory of Seth Thomas Adamantine Antique Mantel Clocks\nIn the 1860s, French clocks in slate, onyx or marble cases became popular in the United States. These cases were expensive, so the American clock manufacturers produced similar looking cases made of iron or wood. These clocks have become known to collectors as \"Black Mantel Clocks\", and were popular from 1880 to 1931.\nSeth Thomas made clocks in marble cases for a short time, from 1887 to ca. 1895. They also made clocks in iron cases finished in black enamel, from 1892 to ca. 1895. Seth Thomas is well known for their \"Adamantine\" black mantel clocks, which were made starting in 1882. Adamantine is a celluloid veneer, glued to the wood case. Adamantine veneer was made in black and white, and in colored patterns such as wood grain, onyx and marble.\nAdamantine veneer was developed by the Celluloid Manufacturing Company of New York City, and was covered by U.S. Patent number 232,037, dated September 7, 1880. Seth Thomas Clock Company purchased the right to use the Adamantine veneer in 1881.\nBelow are shown just a sampling of the many models of Adamantine clock made by Seth Thomas.\nExamples of Seth Thomas Adamantine Antique Mantel Clocks\nAbove: Examples of Adamantine clocks with no pillars.\nAbove: Example of an Adamantine clock with on one half-pillar on each side.\nAbove: Examples of Adamantine clocks with two full pillars on each side.\nAbove: Examples of Adamantine clocks with three half-pillars on each side.\nAbove: Example of a Seth Thomas Adamantine clock with four half-pillars on each side.\nManufacture Dates of Seth Thomas Adamantine Antique Mantel Clocks\nThe movement provides a guide to the date of an Adamantine clock. At first, most Adamantine clocks used a modified shelf clock movement (called the \"hip\" movement because of its shape) with the escapement outside the back plate. Around 1900, the model 89 movement was introduced, having the escapement between the plates. The two types can be distinguished from the front of the clock by the position of the regulating square. The back escapement type (up to ca. 1901*) has the regulating square above the numeral \"12\". The model 89 has the regulating square below the center of the dial. These two types are evident in the illustrations above.\nMany Seth Thomas clocks from 1881 to 1918 have a date code stamped in ink on the case back or bottom. Usually, the year is done in reverse, followed by a letter A - L representing the month. For example, April 1897 would appear as 7981 D. Below are two examples:\nAbove: Date stamp from the bottom of an Adamantine case. The date is September 1892.\nLabels from Seth Thomas Adamantine Clock Cases\nAbove: label from clock dated September 1892.\n*Latest example seen with rear escapement movement was dated March 1901 on the case bottom.\n\"Seth Thomas Clocks & Movements\", Tran Duy Ly, U.

He suffered from headache, nausea, dizziness and tinnitus during the days after the fall. After one 25-minute OMT session, the patient reported the dizziness, tinnitus and nausea had resolved and his scores on the Sensory Organization Test (SOT), a computerized measure of balance, improved from 76 before treatment to 81 after treatment.\nThe second case involved a 16-year old girl with a history of three head injuries, the most recent involving a head-to-head collision. Three weeks after that injury, she reported headache, fatigue, mood swings as well as memory and concentration problems that limited her ability to participate in school and band.\nThe authors evaluated the girl using the Initial Concussion Symptom Score (CSS), which measures progression of symptoms on a scale of 0 to 144, and the Balanced Error Scoring System (BESS), a 0 to 30 scale measuring vestibular dysfunction. On the day after her first OMT treatment, her CSS decreased from 53 to 22 and her BESS improved from 22 to 17. At the end of six treatments, her CSS was 0 and BESS dropped to 14.\n\u201cThese cases are consistent with the clinical experiences of osteopathic physicians who use OMT as part of a multidisciplinary approach to concussion,\u201d said Dr. Rao. \u201cWhile the mechanisms of healing are not well understood with concussion, formal studies measuring OMT\u2019s impact on recovery and quality of life are much needed to demonstrate its efficacy as a viable therapy where there are very limited therapies to date.\u201d\nThe full case reports are available online:\nPosted in College, General, High School, Outside U.S., Products, Professional\t| Tagged osteopath, recovery, treatment\t| Comments Off on Case Reports Suggest Mechanisms for Resolving Concussion Symptoms through Osteopathic Manipulative Treatment\nPosted in General, High School, Hockey, Outside U.S.\t| Tagged ready-to-play, recovery, symptoms, youth\t| Comments Off on Study Shows Less Physically Mature Ice Hockey Players Have Prolonged Concussion Symptoms",

        "raw_content": "Museum (of) Heresy\ncirca 1960s Excavation Exhibit at Chucalissa\nHere goes with what might pass as a bit of museum heresy, or at least so considered by some of my students, and perhaps more broadly within the museum community as well. I teach a course in Museum Practices every fall at the University of Memphis. This graduate level seminar provides a broad overview of theory and method in museum practices on everything from ethics to housekeeping. The first day of class we look at the similarities and differences in various institutional definitions of a museum. For example, The International Council of Museums\u2019 definition of a museum is:\nA non-profit making permanent institution in the service of society and of its development, and open to the public, which acquires, conserves, researches, communicates and exhibits, for purpose of study, education and enjoyment, material evidence of people and their environment.\nThe class then considers the applicability of the definitions to museums today. As we are in Memphis, the discussion always includes the mission at Elvis Presley\u2019s Graceland Mansion that clearly places this pilgrimage destination outside the ICOM parameter. We then move to more nuanced discussions, such as taking up the plethora of Children\u2019s Museums and the role of edutainment facilities. (The Independent has an interesting discussion of edutainment placed in both Museum and Archaeological contexts.)\nWhen I pose the following hypothetical, I often get blank stares. I wonder if some students quickly run through the alternative course offerings in their heads. Here is the set-up for the hypothetical \u2013 via the internet, I review the on-line resources from the American Memory Project at the Library of Congress. I then navigate to the 1930s era Farm Security Administration Photo Collection and show the iconographic images of Dorothea Lange, Russell Lee, and others. I note the very high quality of the images available to download. I ramble on a bit about the tremendous resource these online materials offer, including 160,000 of the 164,000 black and white negatives in the FSA collection. I then pose the question:\nIf the Library of Congress burns to the ground and all the books, photographs and \u201chard copies\u201d are completely destroyed, but the servers on which the digital images are stored are preserved, do the collections still exist?\nAt this point, some of the blank stares begin \u2013 but please keep reading just a bit further and I will get to the point.\nMoving from the hypothetical to the real world, at the Chucalissa site here in Memphis, in the 1950s-60s a trench (pictured above) was excavated through a residential ridge of the Mississippian Culture temple mound complex. A building was constructed over the excavation as an exhibit for public visitation. After 40 years, the stability of the trench is compromised to the extent that the building is closed to the public. The stewards of this Native American cultural resource have an obligation to preserve the integrity and research worth of the excavation trench. One solution posed is to create detailed digital images of the excavation walls to live in a virtual presence, then fill-in the trench, tear down the building, and let the soils re-hydtrate or go back to nature, as it were. Question:\nIf the trench is filled in, and the detailed digital images are available in a virtual environment, does the excavation exhibit still exist?\nFor me, these two hypotheticals raise a couple of important points about Archaeology, Museums and Outreach. First, in the excavation trench example, a virtual presence may offer one solution to the museum\u2019s Mission Statement mandate \u201cto protect and interpret the Chucalissa archaeological site for the benefit of the University community and the public, to provide high quality educational experiences on past and present Native American cultures . . . \u201d where technical and economic constraints rule out other alternatives. The Library of Congress example demonstrates how a virtual presence, regardless of whether the hard copies exist or not, allows the 75% + of private homes in the United States (and beyond) with internet access to experience this tremendous repository of cultural heritage, without the need of traveling to Washington D.C.\nCertainly, this is not an argument for equivalency in on-line and virtual exhibits. But consider that some \u201cmuseums\u201d exist only on-line. For example, consider the new Adobe Museum of Digital Media and click the \u201cmaking of the AMDM\u201d link to hear and view the case for this exclusively virtual museum. Or consider a website I recently ran across of a fellow who took a Polaroid photo each day for nearly 20 years (until his death) and posted them on-line. A blog from Mental Floss discusses this chronicle of the photographer\u2019s last 20 years.\nWe are not in Kansas anymore. I suspect the margins of the museum definitions such as ICOM\u2019s will continue to be pushed in the coming years. In one week my Museum Practices course meets for the first class of Fall 2010 semester. I am curious if my hypotheticals will be met with fewer blank stares.\nWhat are your thoughts on virtual museums, especially as a means for Outreach?\nI previously posted about Beth Kanter\u2019s blog and Allison Fine\u2019s Social Good podcast. Together, they just published The Networked Nonprofit, a volume that brings together the basics of their message on social media.\nSo, how is this relevant to Archaeology, Museums or Outreach? A few thoughts. First, archaeologists, somewhat begrudgingly in many instances, are coming to embrace the digital age. A good bit of our internet presence is geared toward dissemination of information to other archaeologists. For example, here in Tennessee, Kevin Smith maintains an excellent resource with the Tennessee Archaeology Network. Of late, archeologists are starting to push info out to the public in a digital format. For example, Panamerican Consultants recent Lamar Terrace webpage is an excellent resource written and designed with a general readership in mind.\nNext, from the Museum end, the digital presence is more firmly in place, largely due to the public orientation of the institutions. Finally, the relevancy of the Outreach component to digital media is often perceived as a means for cheap product or event promotion and a resource to make money. This perception is akin to my earlier post on the Myth of Volunteers as Free Labor. Rather, as an outreach tool, social networking provides an opportunity to truly engage with audiences in new ways, build community, relationships, and carry a mission forward \u2013 all of which can produce increased revenues attendance, but it\u2019s not free. Oh . . . and all the above in combination \u2013 Archaeology, Museums & Outreach \u2013 pretty much operate in the nonprofit world.\nSo why is the Networked Nonprofit relevant? In a short 200 pages (inclusive of notes, glossary, resources, and index) of highly accessible and well-illustrated discussion, Kanter and Fine lead readers through the process of conceptualizing an organization\u2019s coming into the age of social networking. From initially addressing the Luddite myths of this newfangled digital thing, such as \u201cOur constituents aren\u2019t on-line . . . Face-to-face isn\u2019t important anymore . . . social media isn\u2019t core to our work . . using social media is hard . . . and time-consuming (pp. 8-9)\u201d the authors present a clear and concise discussion of social networking and building networked communities. For example, in Chapter 5 \u2013 Listening, Engaging and Building Relationships \u2013 the authors walk the reader through the utility and process of becoming networked. The last section of the book deals with the mechanics of functioning as a networked nonprofit.\nThe book contains lots of case studies and most chapters end with very useful reflection questions. The 20 pages of end notes and resources is largely composed of on-line references. The book is ideal for the beginner to social networking and also for those who have worked at this for a while in a piecemeal hit or miss fashion. I consider myself in the latter camp and have simply decided that the potential of social networking is incredible and it\u2019s time to really get serious about the process in a strategic long-term way. The Networked Nonprofit is a tool to frame those discussions.\nSo, I come back to asking what has all this got to do with Archaeology, Museums and Outreach? I am convinced that viewing our discipline\u2019s institutions as networked nonprofits is important \u2013 and perhaps a considerably more than Kanter and Fine perceive as well. True, their case studies tend to focus more on social issue organizations, charities, causes, and so forth. However, the application to the nonprofit nature of Museums and the growth of public or applied archaeology/anthropology is quite relevant. I suspect that other disciplines will use the The Networked Nonprofit as they build on-line networked communities and relationships.\nYou can review the first few chapters of The Networked Nonprofit online at amazon.com \u2013 see if Kanter and Fine\u2019s approach works for you.\nGaming & Museums\nIn early 2009, the Center for the Future of Museums hosted a webcast lecture by Jane McGonigal on Gaming and the Future of Museums. The gist of the presentation was that given the amount of time folks, particularly the youth, invest in playing online games, how could museums tap into this trend to further their mission?\nA load of archaeological sites host games of varying quality. The Society for American Archaeology\u2019s Fun for all Ages lists some game pages. Mr. Donn provides a whole suite of archaeological online games from the very simple to the reasonably complex At Colonial Williamsburg the Dirt Detective is a very simple and straightforward educational attempt.\nPerhaps more along the line that McGonigal advocates are several other games:\nWolf Quest is available in both Mac and PC formats and provides an action game environment with education on wolf ecology. Players track scents, mate, and pretty much do just about everything a wolf does during its life cycle. Although I am not an expert on wolf biology, the game appears authentic and does not rely on glitz to keep the player engaged. I cannot imagine playing at this game for a bit and not coming away considerably more knowledgable about wolves \u2013 and it\u2019s a free download.\nThe McCord Museum in Montreal provides historic era gaming options to online visitors. McCord uses an increasingly popular option for museums in online gaming that allows the visitor to \u201ctag\u201d items on display to develop more reliable and robust keyword searches. The McCord Museum games also include role-playing, observation, and quiz type games. Overall, the McCord Museum offerings are quite engaging and provide a considerable information on the historic era Montreal and interacts with their broader on-line presence. For example, the quiz game includes an image of an Iroquois headdress, ultimately connecting to the digital collections catalogue containing 40 odd other headdresses curated by the Museum. Less complex than Wolf Quest, McCord-type offerings can be created through basic Dreamweaver programming skills.\nPerhaps the most low-tech but ultimately the most community engaging gaming is the recently launched Interrobang a joint project of Nuvana, Microsoft, and the Smithsonian. Interrobang is geared toward K-12 grades who choose real-time missions from those listed on the Interrobang site. In collaboration with other team members, players develop a plan to achieve the mission. The team then performs the mission, uploads documentation to the website and describes the experience. Missions are regularly added to the Interrobang website and include Trash Reincarnated where players visit a recycling center and gather information on the recycle process from curbside bin to ultimate reuse. In State of Song players create, perform, and video document songs to teach the names, capitals, and features of U.S. states. Teams receive points for each completed mission along with badges and listing of team scores on the web page. Interrobang gaming is aimed at problem solving. The on-line presence is quite low-tech and manageable with a minimum of digital experience. It\u2019s not clear how successful Interrobang has been during its brief lifespan, however, the content seems completely in-line with McGonigal\u2019s approach to on-line gaming and museums.\nWhat is your experience with on-line gaming, archaeology, and museums?\nCollections on-line: Quality vs. Quantity\nWe are in the process of a major library reorganization at the C.H. Nash Museum at Chucalissa. In the reorganization we intend to begin digitizing the 50 years worth of accumulated photographic prints, 35 mm slides, negatives, and to systematically organize more recent digital images. Also, we will scan our archive of research reports, often written by students for course requirements, but containing a wealth of primary data. Further, we aim to digitize the University of Memphis, Department of Anthropology\u2019s Occasional Paper series that contains archaeological research and conference proceedings from the past 20 years. Initiating the process raises the issue of how to disseminate these materials once digitized \u2013 or to the point, what do we do with all this stuff once placed in a format that better accommodates transfer and access. We could put it all up on the internet, but, even discounting considerations of logistics and ethics, should we? Does such wholesale uploading of material address the public outreach part of our mission? What is the appropriate solution? Is more always better? A couple of months ago we posted photos from 1960s Chucalissa field schools on Facebook. The photos generated much interest and feedback from the folks in the 40-year-old photos. Is our public outreach goal simply to have interaction or is there more to it than that?\nOn-line visual representation across the field of anthropology is quite varied. An example of an engaged and informative online photographic presentation is the Edward S. Curtis Collection at the American Memory Project of the Library of Congress. Besides the images, and lots of them, the site also presents a set of essays that contextualize the Curtis photos in time and space. The Field Museum in Chicago is one of the institutions that has placed many photographic galleries of their collections online. For example, photographs of collections from the World Columbian Exposition are online but there is very limited provenience or interpretive information despite the several introductory essays. My takeaway is that the online Field Museum collection has lots of pictures of things but little in the way of meaning. The British Museum galleries however provide detailed information on many of the artifact images presented.\nA cursory examination of anthropological collection websites shows considerable variation in the presentation of images online. This observation raises questions about the very nature of these public access resources. If we have 50 years of photographs is it important to have each and everyone available online? What considerations come into play when considering community engagement and outreach in the access to collections on-line?",

It would also be in the approach for the seaplane base.\nPublic backlash has apparently prompted a retreat from the idea by the mayor and at least some council members, according to the Comox Valley Record.

        "raw_content": "Scaling up with asynchronous I/O in Windows on the .NET Platform\nTypical server workloads include lots of I/O operations as data is transferred across network connections and written to disk. Analyzing the thread profile of these workloads usually results in a chart that looks something like this (generally with one thread per CPU core):\nthe longer length of the red i/o segments relative to the green cpu segments is intended as a not-to-scale illustration of the fact that typical disk or network i/o operations are thousands of times slower than typical cpu and ram operations. without asynchronous i/o (aio) in most server operating systems and environments, a thread that invokes an i/o operation yields its cpu resource (usually a single cpu core) for the duration of the i/o operation and resumes cpu processing once the i/o operation has completed.\nin a single-threaded environment, this means that cpu cores spend the majority of their time in an idle state since the typical duration of i/o operations is so much higher than cpu operations. multi-threading addresses that problem by allowing a single cpu core to service multiple threads in interleaved fashion. the thread profile of a multi-threaded server workload often looks much like this:\nnow each cpu core can pick up processing work from a new thread such as t2 once its current thread has invoked an i/o operation and yielded. of course, the new t2 thread is likely to invoke i/o operations of its own, too, so to keep cpu core utilization high, each cpu core must be able to pull from a large pool of threads with pending cpu work.\nthat is where the scaling problem arises because in today\u2019s healthcare hardware environment with the proliferation of multi-core server processors, hundreds or thousands of threads could be required to maintain reasonable levels of cpu utilization. unfortunately, maintaining large numbers of threads is expensive and diverts computational resources from the user\u2019s workload to the operating system\u2019s internal \u201cbook-keeping\u201d tasks for active threads.\naio has been around in various forms for a number of years in both windows and unix environments, but the competing aio implementations on unix platforms do not match the uniform and complete aio implementation that windows provides. the windows implementation of aio is one that is especially well-suited to addressing the problem of scaling up workloads with lots of i/o operations.\nthe key to solving the scaling problem is aio\u2019s ability to sever the 1:1 connection between a thread and a work item. with synchronous i/o operations, any thread that initiated an i/o operation would be suspended for the duration of the i/o operation so that it could be awakened upon completion of the i/o operation to resume processing. with aio, any thread that invokes an i/o operation is immediately released as available for other work. once that i/o operation completes, the operating system acquires any thread that is available for work and schedules it to resume work with the results of the i/o operation.\nas a specific example, in the illustration above, if arbitrarily-numbered thread t1 is processing work item w5 and initiates i/o operation i7, it is immediately marked as available for work and may pick up any other available work item such as w9. once i/o operation i7 completes, the operating system tasks the first available thread t3 with resuming work item w5 with the results of i/o operation i7. this approach essentially segments each work item into stages delineated by i/o operations and to allow for the processing of each stage of a work item on a different thread.\nmultiply the illustration by the number of cpu cores in a typical server and one begins to see that the net effect of that segmentation is a relatively small pool of threads is usually sufficient to handle the processing of a large number of work items while maintaining high cpu utilization. the scalability improvement on server workloads that are heavy on i/o with lots of cpu cores can be dramatic.\nat corepoint health, we began introducing aio in corepoint integration engine in the v5.0 release and have continued to expand the range of i/o operations that are performed asynchronously through the 6.0 release. as a result of those technical changes, we have seen a steady and substantial increase in the engine\u2019s scalability. we've seen existing servers handle increased workloads and the computational resources in larger servers are more efficiently utilized for message processing workloads because of our adoption of aio in the engine.\nas an important aside \u2013 because of its potential for increasing scalability, aio has gotten lots of press in software engineering circles. developers who are constantly looking for ways to improve their products may wish to test the performance of aio on their particular workloads and in their particular environments. one pitfall to avoid, though, is the idea that aio improves single-threaded performance.\nin general, aio operations perform comparably or perhaps slightly slower than their synchronous counterparts in single-threaded workloads. as illustrated above, the scalability improvements with aio come from reducing the number of threads that are required to process highly concurrent workloads, so make sure you do your performance testing in a concurrent environment if you want an accurate indicator of its scalability potential.\nTags: Healthcare Interoperability,

A tremendous amount of land and money is spent building spaces for parked cars on the road and in lots; yet, lack of parking is a perennial complaint for many, particularly those in urban or even suburban areas. The problem is not the lack of parking spots but rather their cost \u2014 free. The solution to the parking problem is to view it from an economic perspective and allow the fundamental facilitator of economic activity \u2014 prices \u2014 to produce a market clearing outcome.\nIf the socially optimal goal is to create a matching where every car is matched to an open parking spot, then we are not doing a very good job of reaching it. A study on a 15-block radius in Los Angeles conducted by Donald Shoup, a professor of urban planning at UCLA, found that the average time spent searching for parking spots was 3.3 minutes, which added up to 950,000 miles of travel, 47,000 gallons of gas used and 730 tons of carbon dioxide released over the course of a year \u2014 all from just the cars passing through that 15-block district (\"Gone Parking\"\u009d). This is not for lack of parking spaces, at least in the absolute sense; estimates are that there are at least three parking spaces for every car in the United States. Rather, the problem arises because many people want the same small set of spaces that are most attractive, a classic case of a constricted set where the number of buyers \u2014 drivers and their cars \u2014 exceeds the number of sellers \u2014 available, attractive parking spaces.\nFrom a network perspective, parking is a classic matching problem. If we consider the set of all available parking spaces in a geographic area to be the \"sellers\"\u009d, and the set of all drivers with their cars searching for a parking spot to be \"buyers\"\u009d, then the socially optimal goal is to create a matching in the bipartite graph consisting of all cars and parking spaces so that each car finds a space where it can be parked. The \"value\" of the parking space in this case is the overall attractiveness of the spot to the driver of the car, which is a function not only of the monetary price of the spot (if it is metered) but also its geographic location (how far it is from the destination, how far it is from the car's current position, etc.).\nA problem arises when two drivers highly value a single parking space and thus covet it over other spaces. The economic remedy to that problem is to raise the price of parking enough so that the number of people seeking the most attractive spaces falls to a number equal to the number of spaces there actually are; in other words, selectively raise the price of certain parking spaces until the market clears. At some price level, one driver's value for the space will fall enough so that he will look elsewhere, leaving the space open for the second driver. Dynamic pricing thus allows the municipal government to target individual drivers at their willingness to pay for the space, differentiating between those who really value the space and those who would be okay parking elsewhere.\nBecause most parking spaces in urban areas are either free or offered at a low fixed rate (the meter rate), that is not the case currently. San Francisco, however, has adopted a system called SF Park that implements dynamic pricing on parking spots. The system raises the price of parking spots to reflect demand, leading to higher prices on the most heavily trafficked and sought after spots and lower prices on the less popular spaces. While research still needs to be done on the effectiveness of SF Park, a surprising result has been that overall, prices of street parking have fallen. That is because of the finding that many of the less popular spaces were actually overpriced. The theory of market-clearing prices predicts that overall social welfare should increase even with high prices, and this finding proves that to be the case; lower overall prices means that even consumer welfare \u2014 just a subset of the total social welfare \u2014 has risen.\nEvidence to date has thus shown that the economic theory of matching markets and market-clearing prices can be effectively applied to parking. Free parking, while nominally something that drivers desire, actually exacts a tremendous hidden cost in time and energy wasted finding open parking spots. Instead, it would be a valuable public policy goal to resolve the issue of congested roads through dynamically priced parking.",

        "raw_content": "Creg to end setting electricity tariff parameters\nThe Belgian energy market regulator Creg has announced that it is to end setting tariff parameters on electricity in Belgium. This is despite believing that suppliers' charges are artificial and inflated. The National Bank of Belgium has also expressed concern over energy market prices in Belgium, as they are more volatile than in neighbouring countries.\nDenmark: Life expectancy of wind turbines exceeds 20 years\nLife expectancy of a wind turbine is likely to exceed the 20 years they are designed for, the journal states. In Denmark, there are 2,663 wind turbines that have been in operation for more than 20 years and still are producing electricity, according to data from the Danish energy authority (Energistyrelsen).\nDong Energy expects the average life of wind turbines installed at its latest wind farm Horns Rev 2 to be 20-25 years. However, technical consultant Strange Skriver of wind power association Danmarks Vindm\u00f8lleforening believes future 'super optimisation' of wind turbines to reduce their weight will make them more sensitive, and their life risks becoming shorter.\nGovernments promote large North Sea electricity grid\nThe governments of different states in Europe promote the construction of a large electricity grid on the bottom of the North Sea. Belgium, Denmark, France, Germany, Ireland, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Norway, Sweden and the UK signed a respective letter of intent under the aegis of the European Commission on the weekend of 4/5 December 2010.\nWithin the course of three years, the participating countries intend to develop a plan on how the project could be realised. Several thousand kilometres of high voltage submarine cables in the North Sea are to link wind farms off the German and British coasts with hydro power plants in Norway, tidal power stations on the Belgian and Danish coasts as well as with wind and solar power plants on the European mainland. Experts estimate that the costs for the project might amount to up to EUR 30bn (USD 39.86bn).\nEC proposes new rules to prevent wholesale energy insider trading\nThe European Commission (EC) has proposed new rules to prevent insider trading and market manipulation in wholesale energy markets. Energy traders will have to follow clear market rules. The commission said that market abuse in a member state often disrupts prices in another state. ACER, the European Agency for the Cooperation of Energy Regulators, will be responsible for the detection of abuse cases.\nFederal state intends to acquire 45.01% stake in EnBW from EDF\nThe federal state of Baden-W\u00fcrttemberg announced on 6 December 2010 that it intends to acquire the 45.01% shareholding in Energie Baden-W\u00fcrttemberg (EnBW) held by Electricit\u00e9 de France (EDF). According to EnBW CEO Hans-Peter Villis, the federal state's planned share purchase and the associated announcement that it intends to return the shareholding to the capital market following the acquisition opens up further opportunities for the company's growth.\nBaden-W\u00fcrttemberg is well known to EnBW as a shareholder. The federal state held a shareholding in EnBW until February 2001. EDF has been a shareholder in EnBW since 27 February 2001. EDF increased its shareholding to 45.01% in several steps over the period until January 2005.\nEon Ruhrgas CEO rules out complete sale of the company\nIt is unclear whether German energy group Eon will keep all stakes in its subsidiary Eon Ruhrgas. Eon Ruhrgas CEO Klaus Sch\u00e4fer would not make a clear statement regarding speculations according to which parts of the company are up for sale.\nAccording to Sch\u00e4fer, there exists a target to make divestments worth EUR 15bn (USD 19.87bn). However, there exists no list with the divestments. He stressed that a complete sale is not planned in any case.\nPresident approves longer running times for nuclear plants\nThe German President Christian Wulff has signed the legislative package regarding the extension of the life-span of the 17 nuclear plants in Germany by on average 12 years. Several German federal states governed by the SPD party now intend to file a lawsuit with the German federal constitutional court against the extension of the life-span of nuclear plants.\nWulff signed four laws of the climate and energy package of the German government among them the new nuclear tax and the fund for the expansion of renewable energies\nGas policy will generate 13,600 jobs by 2020\nResearch bureau Brattle Group has investigated the affects of the Dutch government's policy of positioning the Netherlands as a centre of gas trading and transport. It concludes that the policy would generate 13,600 jobs between 2010 and 2020 and an economic benefit of EUR 21.40bn (USD 28.34bn).\nThe Netherlands would also benefit from a good trading system, an expanded national grid and good connection with neighbouring grids. Investment would would stand at EUR 7.7bn and be carried by the corporate sector. The report notes that increasing gas production gives the biggest economic gain and accounts for half the jobs created. Risks centre around the fact that other countries are also positioning themselves in this way.\nNorway/Sweden: Joint target to give 26 TWh of green energy by 2020\nSweden and Norway have set a joint target for 26 TWh of renewable energy by 2020. Swedish Minister for Energy, Maud Olofsson, and her Norwegian counterpart, Terje Riis-Johansen, signed the agreement which included a joint market for renewable energy certificates by 2012. The agreement was hoped to generate increased competition and more stable electricity prices.\nLowest filling level in hydro power reservoirs in 20 years\nE24.no, 2010-12-08\nThe filling level in the Norwegian hydro power reservoirs fell to 57.6% in the week starting on 29 November 2010. Until then, the lowest measure in the last 20 years was 60.6%, and the median level for the corresponding week was 80.5%. The reduction was 3.4% from the week before, compared to a 3.0% decline in the previous week.\nFirst bill regarding nuclear power plant project ready\nFirst of the key bills with regards to the preparation and the implementation of a nuclear power plant construction project has been prepared and has been sent to undergo consultations. All bills necessary to build a nuclear power plant in Poland have to be passed by mid-2011 so that a tender for the supply of nuclear power technology can be announced at that time and the first power block can be opened in 2020.\nChanges to wind and solar energy feed-in tariff approved\nEnergias Renovables, 2010-12-06\nThe royal decree heralding changes to the feed-in tariff for wind and solar energy in Spain has been approved, which will reduce the wind energy premium by 35% from now until 2012 (they will then recover the value of the premiums from the start of 2013), while for solar thermoelectric facilities, during the first year of operation they will have to be part of the regulated tariff and will not have the option for a premium.\nThe changes will allow cost savings for the electricity system of EUR 1.10bn (USD 1.48bn) up to 2013. Both types of energy generation will also have the hours which they can operate under the feed-in tariff limited.\nCall to change wind power veto rights for local authorities\n76% of wind power contractors say new regulations introduced by the Swedish government in 2009 to speed up the application process for new wind power have made it more difficult to build turbines at good wind power locations. This is according to a survey by Swedish Wind Energy (Svensk Vindenergi).\nThe main problem with the new regulations is that local authorities have been given the right of veto for wind power plans, and are not required to explain why they oppose new wind turbines. 380 wind turbines, with a total capacity of 1,000 MW, have to date been stopped by this new veto and another 750 wind turbines, with a total capacity of 2,000 MW, are under threat of being stopped. According to Annika Helker Lundstr\u00f6m, chief executive at Swedish Wind Energy, many of these turbines were planned in areas that have previously been highlighted as suitable for wind farms.\nLundstr\u00f6m is concerned that this greater uncertainty will also make it more difficult to finance wind power projects, and has called on the government to change these regulations. She wants local authorities to explain why they are opposed to specific projects and if this is not possible then the current veto should be replaced by the reintroduction of building permits for wind farms. She believes this would simplify the applications process at the same time as offering a cheap source of renewable energy.\nCCC reveals ambitious emission reduction goal\nUK greenhouse gas emissions would be reduced by 2030 by 60% under plans revealed by the Committee on Climate Change (CCC). The target, which is relative to emission levels for 1990, would become the world's first legally binding target for 2030, if it becomes law, and is geared to allowing a legally binding reduction by 2050 of 80%.\nThe UK electricity market would need to undergo a total revamp to attain the 2030 goal, rendering it more or less zero carbon, while 11mn hybrid or electric vehicles would need to replace petrol-driven models. The CCC's chair Lord Turner says that nations taking action to address emissions will create benefits in economic terms, saying that considerable risks are posed by not taking action.\nThe body's chief executive David Kennedy says that the 2030 goal is ambitious, saying that power sector emissions will need to be reduced by 90%, with new nuclear, wind and clean gas and coal power totalling 40GW being delivered to offset this.",

        "raw_content": "Zionism, the national movement for a Jewish homeland that resulted in the founding of the State of Israel in 1948, has been controversial since its beginnings in the late 19th century.\nExplain the arguments for and against Zionism\nAfter thousands of years of the Jewish diaspora, with Jews living as minorities in countries across the globe, a movement called Zionism, with the goal of establishing a Jewish homeland and sovereign state, emerged in the late 19th century.\nThe political movement was formally established by the Austro-Hungarian journalist Theodor Herzl in 1897 following the publication of his book Der Judenstaat (The Jewish State).\nThe movement was energized by rising anti-semitism in Europe and anti-Jewish pogroms in Russia and aimed at encouraging Jewish migration to Ottoman Palestine.\nThe movement was eventually successful in establishing Israel on May 14, 1948, as the homeland for the Jewish people.\nAdvocates of Zionism view it as a national liberation movement for the repatriation to their ancestral homeland of a persecuted people residing as minorities in a variety of nations.\nCritics of Zionism view it as a colonialist, racist, and exceptionalist ideology that led advocates to violence during Mandatory Palestine, followed by the exodus of Palestinians and the subsequent denial of their human rights.\npogrom: A violent riot aimed at the massacre or persecution of an ethnic or religious group, particularly one aimed at Jews. The term originally entered the English language to describe 19th and 20th century attacks on Jews in the Russian Empire.\nAshkenazi Jews: A Jewish diaspora population who coalesced as a distinct community in the Holy Roman Empire around the end of the first millennium. The traditional diaspora language is Yiddish.\nTheodor Herzl: An Austro-Hungarian journalist, playwright, political activist, and writer. He was one of the fathers of modern political Zionism. He formed the World Zionist Organization and promoted Jewish migration to Palestine in an effort to form a Jewish state (Israel).\nZionism: A Jewish Homeland\nZionism is the national movement of the Jewish people that supports the re-establishment of a Jewish homeland in the territory defined as the historic Land of Israel (roughly corresponding to Palestine, Canaan, or the Holy Land).\nAfter almost two millennia of the Jewish diaspora residing in various countries without a national state, the Zionist movement was founded in the late 19th century by secular Jews, largely as a response by Ashkenazi Jews to rising antisemitism in Europe, exemplified by the Dreyfus affair in France and the anti-Jewish pogroms in the Russian Empire. The political movement was formally established by the Austro-Hungarian journalist Theodor Herzl in 1897 following the publication of his book Der Judenstaat (The Jewish State). At that time, the movement sought to encourage Jewish migration to Ottoman Palestine.\nHerzl considered antisemitism an eternal feature of all societies in which Jews lived as minorities, and that only a separation could allow Jews to escape eternal persecution. \u201cLet them give us sovereignty over a piece of the Earth\u2019s surface, just sufficient for the needs of our people, then we will do the rest!\u201d he proclaimed.\nHerzl proposed two possible destinations to colonize, Argentina and Palestine. He preferred Argentina for its vast and sparsely populated territory and temperate climate, but conceded that Palestine would have greater attraction because of the historic ties of Jews with that area. He also accepted to evaluate Joseph Chamberlain\u2019s proposal for possible Jewish settlement in Great Britain\u2019s East African colonies.\nTheodore Herzl: Theodor Herzl is considered the founder of the Zionist movement. In his 1896 book Der Judenstaat, he envisioned the founding of a future independent Jewish state during the 20th century.\nAlthough initially one of several Jewish political movements offering alternative responses to assimilation and antisemitism, Zionism expanded rapidly. In its early stages, supporters considered setting up a Jewish state in the historic territory of Palestine. After World War II and the destruction of Jewish life in Central and Eastern Europe where these alternative movements were rooted, Zionism became the dominant view about a Jewish national state.\nCreating an alliance with Great Britain and securing support for Jewish emigration to Palestine, Zionists also recruited European Jews to immigrate there, especially those who lived in areas of the Russian Empire where anti-semitism was prevalent. The alliance with Britain was strained as the latter realized the implications of the Jewish movement for Arabs in Palestine, but the Zionists persisted. The movement was eventually successful in establishing Israel on May 14, 1948, as the homeland for the Jewish people. The proportion of the world\u2019s Jews living in Israel has steadily grown since the movement emerged.\nUntil 1948, the primary goals of Zionism were the re-establishment of Jewish sovereignty in the Land of Israel, in-gathering of the exiles, and liberation of Jews from the antisemitic discrimination and persecution they experienced during their diaspora. Since the establishment of the State of Israel in 1948, Zionism continues primarily to advocate on behalf of Israel and to address threats to its continued existence and security.\nMajor aspects of the Zionist idea are represented in the Israeli Declaration of Independence:\nImpelled by this historic and traditional attachment, Jews strove in every successive generation to re-establish themselves in their ancient homeland. In recent decades they returned in their masses.\nAdvocates of Zionism view it as a national liberation movement for the repatriation of a persecuted people residing as minorities in a variety of nations to their ancestral homeland. Critics of Zionism view it as a colonialist, racist, and exceptionalist ideology that led advocates to violence during Mandatory Palestine, followed by the exodus of Palestinians and the subsequent denial of their human rights.\nOpposition and Controversy\nZionism has been characterized as colonialism and criticized for promoting unfair confiscation of land, expelling and causing violence towards the Palestinians. Others view Zionism not as colonialist movement, but as a national movement that is contending with that of Palestine. David Hoffman rejected the claim that Zionism is a \u201csettler-colonial undertaking\u201d and instead characterized Zionism as a national program of affirmative action, adding that there is unbroken Jewish presence in Israel back to antiquity.\nThe first Prime Minister of Israel, David Ben-Gurion, stated that \u201cThere will be no discrimination among citizens of the Jewish state on the basis of race, religion, sex, or class.\u201d However, critics of Zionism consider it a racist movement. According to historian Avi Shlaim, throughout its history up to present day, Zionism \u201cis replete with manifestations of deep hostility and contempt towards the indigenous population.\u201d Some criticisms of Zionism claim that Judaism\u2019s notion of the \u201cchosen people\u201d is the source of racism in Zionism.\nIn December 1973, the UN passed a series of resolutions condemning South Africa and included a reference to an \u201cunholy alliance between Portuguese colonialism, Apartheid and Zionism.\u201d At the time there was little cooperation between Israel and South Africa, although the two countries would develop a close relationship during the 1970s. Parallels have also been drawn between aspects of South Africa\u2019s apartheid regime and certain Israeli policies toward the Palestinians that are seen as manifestations of racism in Zionist thinking.\nSome critics of anti-Zionism have argued that opposition to Zionism can be hard to distinguish from antisemitism, and that criticism of Israel may be used as an excuse to express viewpoints that might otherwise be considered antisemitic.\nOn the other hand, anti-Zionist writers such as Noam Chomsky, Norman Finkelstein, Michael Marder, and Tariq Ali have argued that the characterization of anti-Zionism as antisemitic is inaccurate, that it sometimes obscures legitimate criticism of Israel\u2019s policies and actions, and that it is sometimes used as a political ploy in order to stifle legitimate criticism of Israel.\nSome antisemites have alleged that Zionism was or is part of a Jewish plot to take control of the world. One particular version of these allegations, \u201cThe Protocols of the Elders of Zion\u201d achieved global notability. The protocols are fictional minutes of an imaginary meeting by Jewish leaders of this plot. Analysis and proof of their fraudulent origin goes as far back as 1921. A 1920 German version was extensively used as propaganda by the Nazis and remains widely distributed in the Arab world. The protocols are cited in the 1988 Hamas charter.\nThe Partitioning of Palestine\nThe UN Partition Plan for Palestine was a proposal by the United Nations that recommended a partition of Mandatory Palestine into independent Arab and Jewish States. It was rejected by the Palestinians, leading to a civil war and the end of the British Mandate.\nAnalyze the partitioning of Palestine\nIn 1923, the land of Palestine, previously under the control of the Ottoman Empire, was made a British Mandate by the League of Nations.\nDuring WWI, the British made conflicting promises to the Arab and Jewish populations of Palestine.\nIn 1937, following a six-month-long Arab General Strike, the British established the Peel Commission, which concluded that the Mandate was not working and proposed a partition of Palestine into independent Jewish and Arab States. The proposal was rejected by the Palestinians.\nAt the beginning of WWII, in 1939, the British put a limit on the immigration of Jews into Palestine.\nAfter World War II, in August 1945 President Truman asked for the admission of 100,000 Holocaust survivors into Palestine, but the British maintained limits on Jewish immigration, which led to a new inquiry into partitioning Palestine.\nBy 1947, the British announced their desire to terminate the Palestine Mandate and placed the Question of Palestine before the United Nations, which developed a non-binding recommendation for independent Arab and Jewish states.\nThe proposal was rejected by the Palestinians and civil war broke out.\nArab League: A regional organization of Arab countries in and around North Africa, the Horn of Africa, and Arabia. It was formed in Cairo on March 22, 1945 with six members: Kingdom of Egypt, Kingdom of Iraq, Transjordan (renamed Jordan in 1949), Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, and Syria.\nJihad: An Islamic term referring to the religious duty of Muslims to maintain and spread the religion.\nUnited Nations Partition Plan for Palestine: A 1947 proposal by the United Nations that recommended a partition of Mandatory Palestine at the end of the British Mandate.\nPeel Commission: A British Royal Commission of Inquiry headed by Lord Peel, appointed in 1936 to investigate the causes of unrest in Mandatory Palestine. It was administered by Britain following the six-month-long Arab general strike in Mandatory Palestine.\nBackground and Early Proposals for Partition\nThe British administration was formalized by the League of Nations under the Palestine Mandate in 1923 as part of the Partitioning of the Ottoman Empire following World War I. The Mandate reaffirmed the 1917 British commitment to the Balfour Declaration for the establishment in Palestine of a \u201cNational Home\u201d for the Jewish people, with the prerogative to carry it out. A British census of 1918 estimated 700,000 Arabs and 56,000 Jews.\nIn 1937, following a six-month Arab General Strike and armed insurrection that aimed to pursue national independence and secure the country from foreign control, the British established the Peel Commission. The Jewish population had been attacked during the Arab revolt, leading to the idea that the two populations could not be reconciled. The Commission concluded that the Mandate had become unworkable, and recommended Partition into an Arab state linked to Transjordan, a small Jewish state, and a mandatory zone.\nTo address problems arising from the presence of national minorities in each area, the Commission suggested a land and population transfer involving the transfer of some 225,000 Arabs living in the envisaged Jewish state and 1,250 Jews living in a future Arab state, a measure deemed compulsory \u201cin the last resort.\u201d The Palestinian Arab leadership rejected partition as unacceptable, given the inequality in the proposed population exchange and the transfer of one-third of Palestine, including most of its best agricultural land, to recent immigrants. The Jewish leaders, Chaim Weizmann and David Ben-Gurion, persuaded the Zionist Congress to lend provisional approval to the Peel recommendations as a basis for further negotiations. In a letter to his son in October 1937, Ben-Gurion explained that partition would be a first step to \u201cpossession of the land as a whole.\u201d\nThe British Woodhead Commission was set up to examine the practicality of partition. The Peel plan was rejected and two possible alternatives were considered. In 1938 the British government issued a policy statement declaring that \u201cthe political, administrative and financial difficulties involved in the proposal to create independent Arab and Jewish States inside Palestine are so great that this solution of the problem is impracticable.\u201d Representatives of Arabs and Jews were invited to London for the St. James Conference, which proved unsuccessful.\nMacDonald White Paper of May 1939 declared that it was \u201cnot part of [the British government\u2019s] policy that Palestine should become a Jewish State,\u201d and sought to limit Jewish immigration to Palestine and restricted Arab land sales to Jews. However, the League of Nations commission held that the White Paper was in conflict with the terms of the Mandate as put forth in the past. The outbreak of the Second World War suspended any further deliberations. The Jewish Agency hoped to persuade the British to restore Jewish immigration rights and cooperated with the British in the war against Fascism. Aliyah Bet was organized to spirit Jews out of Nazi-controlled Europe despite British prohibitions. The White Paper also led to the formation of Lehi, a small Jewish organization that opposed the British.\nAfter World War II, in August 1945 President Truman asked for the admission of 100,000 Holocaust survivors into Palestine, but the British maintained limits on Jewish immigration in line with the 1939 White Paper. The Jewish community rejected the restriction on immigration and organized an armed resistance. These actions and United States pressure to end the anti-immigration policy led to the establishment of the Anglo-American Committee of Inquiry. In April 1946, the Committee reached a unanimous decision for the immediate admission of 100,000 Jewish refugees from Europe into Palestine, a repeal of the White Paper restrictions of land sale to Jews, that the country be neither Arab nor Jewish, and the extension of U.N. Trusteeship. U.S. endorsed the Commission findings concerning Jewish immigration and land purchase restrictions, while the U.K. conditioned its implementation on U.S. assistance in case of another Arab revolt. In effect, the British continued to carry out White Paper policy. The recommendations triggered violent demonstrations in the Arab states and calls for a Jihad and an annihilation of all European Jews in Palestine.\nBy 1947, the British announced their desire to terminate the Palestine Mandate and placed the Question of Palestine before the United Nations, the successor to the League of Nations. The UN created UNSCOP (the UN Special Committee on Palestine) on May 15, 1947, with representatives from 11 countries. UNSCOP conducted hearings and surveyed the situation in Palestine, then issued a report on August 31 recommending the creation of independent Arab and Jewish states, with Jerusalem placed under international administration.\nOn November 29, the UN General Assembly voted 33 to 13, with 10 abstentions, to adopt a resolution recommending the adoption and implementation of the Plan of Partition. The division was to take effect on the date of British withdrawal. The partition plan required that the proposed states grant full civil rights to all people within their borders regardless of race, religion, or gender. Both the United States and Soviet Union supported the resolution. The five members of the Arab League, who were voting members at the time, voted against the Plan.\nThe Jewish Agency, the Jewish state-in-formation, accepted the plan, and nearly all Jews in Palestine rejoiced at the news.\nThe partition plan was rejected out of hand by Palestinian Arab leadership and by most of the Arab population. Meeting in Cairo on November and December 1947, the Arab League adopted a series of resolutions endorsing a military solution to the conflict.\nBritain announced that it would accept the partition plan, but refused to enforce it, arguing it was not accepted by the Arabs. Britain also refused to share the administration of Palestine with the UN Palestine Commission during the transitional period. In September 1947, the British government announced that the Mandate for Palestine would end at midnight on May 14, 1948.\nSome Jewish organizations also opposed the proposal. Irgun leader Menachem Begin announced, \u201cThe partition of the Homeland is illegal. It will never be recognized. The signature by institutions and individuals of the partition agreement is invalid. It will not bind the Jewish people. Jerusalem was and will forever be our capital. Eretz Israel will be restored to the people of Israel. All of it. And for ever.\u201d These views were publicly rejected by the majority of the nascent Jewish state.\nImmediately after adoption of the Resolution by the General Assembly, a civil war broke out and the UN plan was not implemented.\nUnited Nations Partition Plan for Palestine 1947: A map of the UN plan for partitioning Palestine into independent Arab and Jewish States and a Special International Regime for the city of Jerusalem.\nThe \u201cJewish state\u201d is a political term used to describe the nation state of Israel, the homeland of the Jewish people, but the religious versus secular usage of the term and its possible exclusionary implications have been debated since the founding of Israel in 1948.\nDefine and describe \u201cthe Jewish State\u201d\nSince the late 19th century with the rise of Zionism, there were waves of Jewish immigration to Palestine, but during WWII and the Holocaust, the urgency of Jewish migration out of Europe heightened in conflict with the limits placed on Jewish immigration to Palestine in 1939.\nAfter World War II, Britain found itself in intense conflict with the Jewish community over immigration, as well as continued conflict with the Arab community.\nOn November 29, 1947, the United Nations General Assembly adopted a Partition Plan for Mandatory Palestine, which was rejected by the Palestinians and resulted the outbreak of civil war.\nOn May 14, 1948, the day before the expiration of the British Mandate, David Ben-Gurion, the head of the Jewish Agency, declared \u201cthe establishment of a Jewish state in Eretz-Israel, to be known as the State of Israel.\u201d\nThe following day, the armies of four Arab countries\u2014Egypt, Syria, Transjordan, and Iraq\u2014entered what had been British Mandatory Palestine, launching the 1948 Arab\u2013Israeli War which continued for one year until a cease-fire.\nThe term \u201cJewish state\u201d has been in common usage in the media since the establishment of Israel, and the term was used interchangeably with Israel.\nNuremberg Laws: Antisemitic laws in Nazi Germany introduced on September 15, 1935, by the Reichstag at a special meeting convened at the annual Nuremberg Rally of the Nazi Party (NSDAP). The two laws were the Law for the Protection of German Blood and German Honour, which forbade marriages and extramarital intercourse between Jews and Germans and the employment of German females under 45 in Jewish households, and the Reich Citizenship Law, which declared that only those of German or related blood were eligible to be Reich citizens. The remainder were classed as state subjects, without citizenship rights.\nEretz-Israel: The traditional Jewish name for an area of indefinite geographical extension in the Southern Levant. Related biblical, religious, and historical English terms include the Land of Canaan, the Promised Land, the Holy Land, and Palestine.\nDavid Ben-Gurion: The primary founder of the State of Israel and the first Prime Minister of Israel. On May 14, 1948, he formally proclaimed the establishment of the State of Israel and was the first to sign the Israeli Declaration of Independence, which he helped write. He led Israel during the 1948 Arab\u2013Israeli War and united the various Jewish militias into the Israel Defense Forces (IDF). Subsequently, he became known as \u201cIsrael\u2019s founding father.\u201d\nIn 1933, Hitler came to power in Germany, and in 1935 the Nuremberg Laws made German Jews (and later Austrian and Czech Jews) stateless refugees. Similar rules were applied by the many Nazi allies in Europe. The subsequent growth in Jewish migration and the impact of Nazi propaganda aimed at the Arab world led to the 1936\u20131939 Arab revolt in Palestine. Britain established the Peel Commission to investigate the situation. The commission did not consider the situation of Jews in Europe, but called for a two-state solution and compulsory transfer of populations. Britain rejected this solution and instead implemented the White Paper of 1939. This planned to end Jewish immigration by 1944 and allow no more than 75,000 additional Jewish migrants. This was disastrous to European Jews, who were already gravely discriminated against and in need of refuge. The British maintained this policy until the end of the Mandate.\nDuring World War II, as the horrors of the Holocaust became known, the Zionist leadership formulated the One Million Plan, a reduction from Ben-Gurion\u2019s previous target of two million immigrants. Following the end of the war, a massive wave of stateless Jews, mainly Holocaust survivors, began migrating to Palestine in small boats in defiance of British rules. The Holocaust united much of the rest of world Jewish community behind the Zionist project. The British either imprisoned these Jews in Cyprus or sent them to the British-controlled Allied Occupation Zones in Germany. The British, having faced the 1936\u20131939 Arab revolt against mass Jewish immigration into Palestine, were now facing opposition by Zionist groups in Palestine for subsequent restrictions.\nAfter World War II, Britain found itself in intense conflict with the Jewish community over Jewish immigration limits, as well as continued conflict with the Arab community over limit levels. The Haganah, a Jewish paramilitary organization, prepared an armed struggle against British rule.\nOn November 29, 1947, the United Nations General Assembly adopted a Partition Plan for Mandatory Palestine. This specified borders for new Arab and Jewish states and an area of Jerusalem to be administered by the UN under an international regime. The end of the British Mandate for Palestine was set for midnight on May 14, 1948, but the Palestinians rejected the plan.\nOn December 1, 1947, the Arab Higher Committee proclaimed a three-day strike, and Arab gangs began attacking Jewish targets. The Jews were initially on the defensive as civil war broke out, but in early April 1948 moved onto the offensive. The Arab Palestinian economy collapsed and 250,000 Palestinian Arabs fled or were expelled.\nOn May 14, 1948, the day before the expiration of the British Mandate, David Ben-Gurion, the head of the Jewish Agency, declared \u201cthe establishment of a Jewish state in Eretz-Israel, to be known as the State of Israel.\u201d The only reference in the text of the Declaration to the borders of the new state is the use of the term Eretz-Israel (\u201cLand of Israel\u201d).\nDeclaration of the State of Israel: David Ben-Gurion proclaiming the Israeli Declaration of Independence on May 14, 1948.\nThe following day, the armies of four Arab countries\u2014Egypt, Syria, Transjordan, and Iraq\u2014entered what had been British Mandatory Palestine, launching the 1948 Arab\u2013Israeli War. Contingents from Yemen, Morocco, Saudi Arabia and Sudan also joined the war. The purpose of the invasion was to prevent the establishment of the Jewish state at inception, and some Arab leaders talked about driving the Jews into the sea. According to Benny Morris, Jews felt that the invading Arab armies aimed to slaughter the Jews. The Arab League stated that the invasion was to restore law and order and prevent further bloodshed.\nAfter a year of fighting, a ceasefire was declared and temporary borders, known as the Green Line, were established. Jordan annexed what became known as the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, and Egypt took control of the Gaza Strip. The United Nations estimated that more than 700,000 Palestinians were expelled by or fled from advancing Israeli forces during the conflict\u2014what would become known in Arabic as the Nakba (\u201ccatastrophe\u201d).\nThe \u201cJewish state\u201d is a political term used to describe the nation state of Israel. The state of Israel defined itself in its declaration of independence as a \u201cJewish state,\u201d a term that appeared in the United Nations partition decision of 1947. The term has been in common usage in the media since the establishment of Israel and is used interchangeably with Israel.\nThere has been ongoing debate in Israel about whether the state should recognize more Jewish culture, encourage Judaism in schools, and enshrine certain laws of Kashrut and Shabbat observance. This debate reflects a historical divide within Zionism and among the Jewish citizens of Israel, which has large secular and traditional/Orthodox minorities as well as a majority that lies somewhere in between.\nSecular Zionism, the historically dominant stream, is rooted in a concept of the Jews as a people with a right to self-determination, and to have a state where they would be unafraid of antisemitic attacks and live in peace.\nThe notion that Israel should be constituted in the name of and maintain a special relationship with a particular group of people, the Jewish people, has drawn much controversy vis-\u00e0-vis minority groups living in Israel \u2013 the large number of Muslim and Christian Palestinians residing in Israel and, to the extent that those territories are claimed to be governed as part of Israel and not as areas under military occupation, in the West Bank and Gaza. For example, the Israeli National Anthem, Hatikvah, refers to Jews by name as well as alluding to the concept of Zionism, and contains no mention of Palestinian Arab culture. This anthem therefore excludes non-Jews from its narrative of national identity. Similar criticism has been made of the Israeli flag which resembles the Tallit (a Jewish prayer shawl) and features a Star of David, universally acknowledged as a symbol of Judaism. Critics of Israel as a Jewish state, particularly a nation state, have suggested that it should adopt more inclusive and neutral symbolism.\nDuring the 1948 Palestine War, around 85% (720,000 people) of the Palestinian Arab population of what became Israel were expelled from their homes, fleeing to the West Bank, the Gaza Strip, Lebanon, Syria, and Jordan.\nTrace the Palestinian refugee populations in places such as Jordan\nDuring the Palestine War of 1948, the first phase of the Arab-Israeli War of 1948, 85% of the Palestinian Arab population fled from their homes in what became known as the Palestinian Exodus of 1948.\nThere is heated debate among historians and politicians as to the causes of the Exodus, and the status of this debate has bearing on the claim of Palestinians to their land.\nThe expulsion of the Palestinians has since been described by some historians as ethnic cleansing, while others dispute this charge.\nDisplaced Palestinian Arabs, known as Palestinian refugees, were settled in Palestinian refugee camps throughout the Arab world, with most fleeing to the West Bank, the Gaza Strip, Lebanon, Syria, and Jordan.\nMost Arab nations denied citizenship to the Palestinian refugees, except in Jordan, where most have citizenship or the equivalent rights of citizens.\nIn a 2007 study, Amnesty International denounced the \u201cappalling social and economic condition\u201d of Palestinians in Lebanon.\nPalestinian Exodus of 1948: Also known as the Nakba, this event occurred when more than 700,000 Palestinian Arabs fled or were expelled from their homes during the 1948 Palestine war.\nWest Bank: A landlocked territory near the Mediterranean coast of Western Asia, forming the bulk of the Palestinian territories. It shares a border with Jordan across the Jordan River.\nGaza Strip: A small, self-governing Palestinian territory on the eastern coast of the Mediterranean Sea, bordering Egypt on the southwest for 6.8 miles and Israel on the east and north along a 32-mile border. Together with the West Bank, it comprises the territories claimed by the Palestinians as the State of Palestine.\nrefugee: A displaced person who has been forced to cross national boundaries and cannot return home safely because of persecution for reasons of race, religion, nationality, membership of a particular social group or political opinion.\nPalestinian Exodus of 1948\nDuring the 1947\u20131948 Civil War in Mandatory Palestine and the 1948 Arab\u2013Israeli War that followed, around 750,000 Palestinian Arabs (85% of the population) fled or were expelled from their homes, out of approximately 1.2 million Arabs living in former British Mandate of Palestine. This event was known as the Nakba (Arabic for \u201cdisaster\u201d or \u201ccatastrophe\u201d).\nThis number did not include displaced Palestinians inside Israeli-held territory. More than 400 Arab villages and about ten Jewish villages and neighborhoods were depopulated during the Arab-Israeli conflict, most of during 1948. According to estimates based on earlier census, the total Muslim population in Palestine was 1,143,336 in 1947. After the war, around 156,000 Arabs remained in Israel and became Israeli citizens.\nThe causes of the exodus are a subject of fundamental disagreement between historians. Factors involved include Jewish military advances, destruction of Arab villages, psychological warfare, and fears of another massacre by Zionist militias after the Deir Yassin massacre, which caused many to leave out of panic; direct expulsion orders by Israeli authorities; the voluntary self-removal of the wealthier classes; collapse in Palestinian leadership and Arab evacuation orders; and an unwillingness to live under Jewish control.\nIn the years after, a series of laws passed by the first Israeli government prevented Arabs from returning to their homes or claiming their property. Most remained refugees, as do their descendants. The expulsion of the Palestinians has since been described by some historians as ethnic cleansing, while others dispute this charge.\nThe Palestinian refugee problem and debate about the Palestinian right of return are also major issues of the Arab-Israeli conflict. Palestinians and their supporters have staged annual demonstrations and commemorations on May 15 of each year, which is known to them as \u201cNakba Day.\u201d The popularity and number of participants in these annual Nakba demonstrations has varied over time.\nPalestinian Exodus: Palestine refugees making their way from their former homes in Galilee, October\u2013November 1948\nLife After the Exodus\nDisplaced Palestinian Arabs, known as Palestinian refugees, were settled in Palestinian refugee camps throughout the Arab world. Most fled to the West Bank, the Gaza Strip, Lebanon, Syria, and Jordan. The United Nations established UNRWA as a relief and human development agency tasked with providing humanitarian assistance to Palestinian refugees. Arab nations refused to absorb Palestinian refugees, instead keeping them in refugee camps while insisting that they be allowed to return.\nRefugee status was also passed to their descendants, who were also largely denied citizenship in Arab states except in Jordan. The Arab League instructed its members to deny Palestinians citizenship \u201cto avoid dissolution of their identity and protect their right of return to their homeland.\u201d More than 1.4 million Palestinians still live in 58 recognized refugee camps, while more than 5 million Palestinians live outside Israel and the Palestinian territories.\nMore than 2 million registered Palestine refugees live in Jordan. Most Palestine refugees in Jordan, but not all, have full citizenship. The percentage of Palestinian refugees living in refugee camps to those who settled outside the camps is the lowest of all UNRWA fields of operations. Palestine refugees are allowed access to public services and health care, as a result, refugee camps are becoming more like poor city suburbs than refugee camps. Most Palestine refugees moved out of the camps to other parts of the country. Following the capture of the West Bank by Israel in 1967, Jordan revoked the citizenship of thousands of Palestinians to thwart any attempt to permanently resettle from the West Bank to Jordan. West Bank Palestinians with family in Jordan or Jordanian citizenship were issued yellow cards guaranteeing them all the rights of Jordanian citizenship if requested.\n100,000 Palestinians fled to Lebanon because of the 1948 Arab\u2013Israeli War and were not allowed to return. As of January 2015, there are 452,669 registered refugees in Lebanon.\nIn a 2007 study, Amnesty International denounced the \u201cappalling social and economic condition\u201d of Palestinians in Lebanon. Until 2005, Palestinians were forbidden to work in over 70 jobs because they do not have Lebanese citizenship, but this was later reduced to around 20 as of 2007 after liberalization laws. In 2010, Palestinians were granted the same rights to work as other foreigners in the country.\nLebanon gave citizenship to about 50,000 Christian Palestinian refugees during the 1950s and 1960s. In the mid-1990s, about 60,000 Shiite Muslim refugees were granted citizenship. This caused protest from Maronite authorities, leading to citizenship being given to all Christian refugees who were not already citizens.\nThe Six-Day War, which had its origins in the ongoing tense relations between Israel and its neighboring Arab nations, was a decisive victory for Israel, tripling its territory from before the war.\nDescribe the events of the Six-Day War\nRelations between Israel and its neighboring Arab nations had never fully normalized following the 1948 Arab\u2013Israeli War, fought immediately after the Israel declared itself an independent nation-state.\nIssues such as the Palestinian refugee crisis and the Suez Crisis of 1956 created an antagonistic stance toward Israel throughout the Arab world, and by June 1967, tensions were at their height.\nIn reaction to the mobilization of Egyptian forces along the Israeli border in the Sinai Peninsula, Israel launched a series of preemptive airstrikes against Egyptian airfields, which destroyed nearly the entire Egyptian air force.\nEgypt, pretending they won the initial battles, convinced Jordan and then Syria to enter the war, which also resulted in Israeli victories.\nAt the end of the war, six days later, Israel gained control of the Gaza Strip and the Sinai Peninsula from Egypt, the West Bank and East Jerusalem from Jordan, and the Golan Heights from Syria.\nIsraeli morale and international prestige was greatly increased by the outcome of the war, but their over-confidence may have contributed to future military losses against Egypt in the Yom Kippur War of 1973.\n1948 Arab\u2013Israeli War: A war between the State of Israel and a military coalition of Arab states, forming the second stage of the 1948 Palestine war. The ongoing civil war between the Jews and Arabs in Palestine transformed into an interstate conflict between Israel and the Arab states following the Israeli Declaration of Independence the previous day. A combined invasion by Egypt, Jordan, and Syria, together with expeditionary forces from Iraq, entered Palestine.\nYom Kippur War: A war fought by a coalition of Arab states led by Egypt and Syria against Israel from October 6 to 25, 1973. The fighting mostly took place in the Sinai and the Golan Heights, territories that had been occupied by Israel since the Six-Day War of 1967. Egyptian President Anwar Sadat wanted also to reopen the Suez Canal. Neither specifically planned to destroy Israel, although the Israeli leaders could not be sure of that.\nThe Six-Day War, also known as the June War, 1967 Arab\u2013Israeli War, or Third Arab\u2013Israeli War, was fought between June 5 and 10, 1967, by Israel and the neighboring states of Egypt (known at the time as the United Arab Republic), Jordan, and Syria.\nRelations between Israel and its neighbors had never fully normalized following the 1948 Arab\u2013Israeli War. In the period leading up to June 1967, tensions became dangerously heightened. In reaction to the mobilization of Egyptian forces along the Israeli border in the Sinai Peninsula, Israel launched a series of preemptive airstrikes against Egyptian airfields. The Egyptians were caught by surprise, and nearly the entire Egyptian air force was destroyed with few Israeli losses, giving the Israelis air superiority. Simultaneously, the Israelis launched a ground offensive into the Gaza Strip and the Sinai, which again caught the Egyptians by surprise. After some initial resistance, Egyptian leader Gamal Abdel Nasser ordered the evacuation of the Sinai. Israeli forces rushed westward in pursuit of the Egyptians, inflicted heavy losses, and conquered the Sinai.\nNasser induced Syria and Jordan to begin attacks on Israel by using the initially confused situation to claim that Egypt defeated the Israeli air strike. Israeli counterattacks resulted in the seizure of East Jerusalem and the West Bank from the Jordanians, while Israel\u2019s retaliation against Syria resulted in its occupation of the Golan Heights.\nOn June 11, a ceasefire was signed. Arab casualties were far heavier than those of Israel: fewer than a thousand Israelis were killed compared to over 20,000 from the Arab forces. Israel\u2019s military success was attributed to the element of surprise, an innovative and well-executed battle plan, and the poor quality and leadership of the Arab forces. As a result of the war, Israel gained control of the Gaza Strip and the Sinai Peninsula from Egypt, the West Bank and East Jerusalem from Jordan, and the Golan Heights from Syria. Israeli morale and international prestige were greatly increased by the outcome of the war, and the area under Israeli control tripled. However, the speed and ease of Israel\u2019s victory would lead to a dangerous overconfidence within the ranks of the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), contributing to initial Arab successes in the subsequent 1973 Yom Kippur War. The displacement of civilian populations resulting from the war would have long-term consequences, as 300,000 Palestinians fled the West Bank and about 100,000 Syrians left the Golan to become refugees. Across the Arab world, Jewish minority communities were expelled, with refugees going to Israel or Europe.\nResults of the Six-Day War: Territory held by Israel before and after the Six Day War. Israel gained control of the Gaza Strip and the Sinai Peninsula from Egypt, the West Bank and East Jerusalem from Jordan, and the Golan Heights from Syria.\nThe origins of the Six-Day War include both longstanding and immediate issues. At this time, the earlier foundation of Israel, the resulting Palestinian refugee issue, and Israel\u2019s participation in the invasion of Egypt during the Suez crisis of 1956 were significant grievances for the Arab world. Arab nationalists, led by Egyptian President Gamal Abdel Nasser, continued to be hostile to Israel\u2019s existence and made grave threats against its Jewish population. By the mid-1960s, relations between Israel and its Arab neighbors had deteriorated to the extent that a number of border clashes had taken place.\nIn April 1967, Syria shot at an Israeli tractor plowing in the demilitarized zone, which escalated to a prewar aerial clash. In May 1967, following misinformation about Israeli intentions provided by the Soviet Union, Egypt expelled UN peacekeepers who had been stationed in the Sinai Peninsula since the Suez conflict, and announced a blockade of Israel\u2019s access to the Red Sea (international waters) via the Straits of Tiran, which Israel considered an act of war. Tension escalated, with both sides\u2019 armies mobilizing. Less than a month later, Israel launched a surprise strike which began the Six-Day War.\nThe political importance of the 1967 War was immense; Israel demonstrated that it was able and willing to initiate strategic strikes that could change the regional balance. Egypt and Syria learned tactical lessons and would launch an attack in 1973 in an attempt to reclaim their lost territory.\nFollowing the war, Israel experienced a wave of national euphoria, and the press praised the military\u2019s performance for weeks afterward. New \u201cvictory coins\u201d were minted to celebrate. In addition, the world\u2019s interest in Israel grew, and the country\u2019s economy, which had been in crisis before the war, flourished due to an influx of tourists and donations, as well as the extraction of oil from the Sinai\u2019s wells.\nIn the Arab nations, populations of minority Jews faced persecution and expulsion following the Israeli victory. According to historian and ambassador Michael B. Oren:\nMobs attacked Jewish neighborhoods in Egypt, Yemen, Lebanon, Tunisia, and Morocco, burning synagogues and assaulting residents. A pogrom in Tripoli, Libya, left 18 Jews dead and 25 injured; the survivors were herded into detention centers. Of Egypt\u2019s 4,000 Jews, 800 were arrested, including the chief rabbis of both Cairo and Alexandria, and their property sequestered by the government. The ancient communities of Damascus and Baghdad were placed under house arrest, their leaders imprisoned and fined. A total of 7,000 Jews were expelled, many with merely a satchel.\nFollowing the war, Israel made an offer for peace that included the return of most of the recently captured territories. According to Chaim Herzog:\nOn June 19, 1967, the National Unity Government [of Israel] voted unanimously to return the Sinai to Egypt and the Golan Heights to Syria in return for peace agreements. The Golans would have to be demilitarized and special arrangement would be negotiated for the Straits of Tiran. The government also resolved to open negotiations with King Hussein of Jordan regarding the Eastern border.\nIn September, the Khartoum Arab Summit resolved that there would be \u201cno peace, no recognition and no negotiation with Israel.\u201d However, as Avraham Sela notes, the Khartoum conference effectively marked a shift in the perception of the conflict by the Arab states away from one centered on the question of Israel\u2019s legitimacy to one focusing on territories and boundaries.\nTheodor Herzl.

        "title": "Steven Furtick, Elevation Church, and Some Words of Caution. . . | CPYU",
        "raw_content": "Steven Furtick, Elevation Church, and Some Words of Caution. . .\nIn recent days, I\u2019ve been seeing a growing number of Facebook posts among my Christian friends that question some of the practices of Steven Furtick and his Elevation (mega) Church in North Carolina. Admittedly, I know very little about Furtick and his church. But what I\u2019ve heard, seen, and been reading has pushed some buttons for me and sparked some thoughts.\nWhat I\u2019ve seen includes a news report on Furtick, Elevation Church, and the way that baptisms are conducted. . . or even manipulated. As someone from a confessional church background, I\u2019m always concerned about the dumbing down of the sacraments and how quickly we fail to provide adequate education, physical context for their enactment (in the larger body of Christ), and follow-up. Watching the news report (see below) and reading the accompanying written news story (picking the energetic young people to be first to go on stage. . . oh my!) on Elevation Church and baptism certainly raises those issues for me.\nBut there are other issues and thoughts that the report sparked for me. Then, I saw the posts on the Elevation Church coloring book for the kids. . . and felt even more uneasy and troubled.\nAgain, I don\u2019t know the entire story here, but what I\u2019m seeing and hearing should, I believe, cause us all to step back with concern and take a long, hard, careful look at what we believe, how we do things, and who we are as the church. You see, there is a tendency among us to go beyond communicating an offensive Gospel to the world, to actually being legitimately offensive to the world by portraying a tweaked or even false Gospel. We can cross the line from being \u201cfools for Christ\u201d to actually being fooled and foolish. So, here are some initial thoughts about all of us and how we do things in the church today. . .\nWe can easily cross over into relying on the spirit of the times, rather than on the Holy Spirit when it comes to our communication of the Gospel. The spirit of the times is one that celebrates and relies on marketing technique. When we co-opt that into the church, we tend to trust in our methods rather than on our God. When that happens, we effectively lead people to technique and experience, rather than to Christ. The enemy has got to be loving this.\nOur theology can easily morph into commandeering God, rather than faithfully following the God who leads us. When Steven Furtick counts to three. . . and when Steven Furtick then issues the imperative, \u201cDo it God\u201d . . . we should cringe. Perhaps there are aspects of our own practical theology that should be cringe-worthy as well?\nCharismatic leaders can become bigger than life. . . in their own eyes and in the eyes of their followers. They can become so big, in fact, that they eclipse God. Never forget, our culture celebrates and encourages Narcissism. But doesn\u2019t the Gospel call us to something different? And isn\u2019t that something different actually the kind of fruit by which we will know them?\nWe need accountability. We need it ourselves. We need it in our systems. We need it in our churches. . . desperately. I hear lots of people criticize church government and denominationalism. But when those systems are working well, there is an accountability that keeps us all honest and out of trouble. Recently someone asked me why CPYU is a board-governed non-profit with a board that has full authority over me. There\u2019s good reason. I am a broken human being. I need to be held accountable, as does our organization. Sadly, I think that in the church we are quickly moving away from models that embrace and facilitate accountability, to something that looks and functions more like a dictatorship than the Body of Christ.\nWhen we\u2019re part of a system or institution that gets called out, our tendency is to first become defensive, to then fire back with accusations of judgementalism, to justify and legitimize that which is critiqued by pointing to its effectiveness at getting results (even though those results may be questionable), and to further cloister one\u2019s self and one\u2019s institution from helpful critique and accountability. It\u2019s a kind of \u201cHow dare you! We\u2019re doing this in the name of Christ!\u201d mentality. What this means is that those of us within the systems might be so blind that we should welcome \u201cseeing-eye\u201d brothers and sisters whose care and concern could rescue us from danger and doom.\nWe need to realize that just because something is being done in the name of Christ, doesn\u2019t mean that that something is bringing honor and glory to Christ. Yesterday I started reading my friend Steve Garber\u2019s new book, Visions of Vocation: Common Grace for the Common Good. In the book\u2019s Introduction, Steve reminds us of what novelist Walker Percy once famously wrote: \u201cBad books always lie. They lie most of all about the human condition.\u201d In today\u2019s world, bad books almost always sell the best. . . . making them seem like good books. Well, the same could be said, I fear, of bad churches. . . they always lie. . . and one of the things they lie about the most is the human condition. Is it possible that a bad church could be one that sells the best? A good church will preach a deep and abiding sense of human brokenness. A good church will answer that brokenness with the Gospel. . . . communicated through carefully evaluated methodologies that never muddy the message, send the wrong message, or become ends in and of themselves.\nThere\u2019s not one of us who isn\u2019t immune from sliding away from doing and being our best, into doing and being something much less than our best. Some of the best conversations of my life have been the most uncomfortable. They\u2019ve occurred when I\u2019ve been in the midst of doing what I believe are good things that others I trust somehow correctly see as things that maybe I shouldn\u2019t be doing. They will lovingly call me out with words like \u201cThat\u2019s not you at your best, Walt\u201d or \u201cThat doesn\u2019t put you and God in the best light\u201d or \u201cHave you thought about what you\u2019re really doing and communicating here?\u201d None of us are immune. That\u2019s another reason for accountability.\nIt will be interesting to see how we offer and take constructive criticism. For the church to advance in faithfulness to God, we have to willingly seek out and do both.\nIn my quest to understand where those who share my German heritage went wrong, I ran across a horrifying and eye-opening quote from Hitler\u2019s propaganda minister, Joseph Goebbels: \u201cThis is the secret of propaganda: Those who are to be persuaded by it should be completely immersed in the ideas of the propaganda, without even noticing that they are being immersed in it.\u201d Hmmmmm.\nAll the chatter about Steven Furtick and Elevation Church is worthy of our time and attention. But let\u2019s not stop at our critique of Furtick and Elevation. We need to step out of ourselves and look at ourselves under the same light. What kind of \u201cpropaganda\u201d are we swimming in that we don\u2019t even notice. . . but should?\n\u2190 Too Easy. . . .\nThe Most Interesting Man Alive? . . . \u2192\nBen Birdsong says:\nThanks for these thoughts! This is a helpful warning to us all.",

        "title": "Enbrel Biosimilar Works Well, Yet Some Patients Still Prefer the Originator Drug",
        "raw_content": "People who take Enbrel (etanercept) for inflammatory arthritis know that it can be incredibly expensive. But in recent years, some \u201cbiosimilar\u201d options \u2014 which are considered comparable to the original medication yet have the potential to be far less expensive \u2014 have been created. In the U.S., the Enbrel biosimilar is called Erelzi. It was FDA-approved in 2016 but has not yet hit the market due to a legal dispute. In Europe, the Enbrel biosimilar is called Benepali (SB4) and it\u2019s already widely available.\nBiosimilar drugs are akin to generic medications, but there\u2019s an important distinction: A generic drug must contain exactly the same active ingredients as those found in the original medication; biosimilars need to be \u201chighly similar to the reference product.\u201d According to the FDA, \u201cbiosimilar manufacturers must also demonstrate that there are no clinically meaningful differences\u2026 in terms of safety and efficacy.\u201d (Biosimilar drugs cannot be exactly identical as the reference drug on which they are based because of inherent variability in the way these complex molecules are manufactured.)\nIn 2016, Denmark issued a mandate that everyone who was taking Enbrel for inflammatory arthritis switch to the biosimilar Benepali, which is almost 50 percent cheaper there. But does this less-expensive Enbrel biosimilar really work just as well in a real-life setting?\nTo find out, European researchers tracked 2,061 patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), psoriatic arthritis (PsA), or axial spondyloarthritis (AxSpA) who are part of the DANBIO registry. The wanted to determine how many patients actually made the mandated switch to Benepali (Enbrel remained on the market) as well as how many would stay on the biosimilar version.\nThe researchers, led by Bente Glintborg, MD, PhD, of Gentofte and Herlev University Hospital in Denmark, found that both drugs worked equally well for managing inflammatory arthritis: Disease activity scores three months before the switch and three months afterward were almost identical. C-reactive protein levels, which indicate inflammation, also remained stable. The study was published in the journal Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases.\nWhile these findings sound very positive \u2014 and they largely are \u2014 some patients did not switch to Benepali. Despite the mandate, 21 percent stayed on Enbrel. Of the majority (79 percent) who switched, about 18 percent were no longer taking Benepali about a year later (median follow-up was 401 days); some of those who had stopped using it went back to Enbrel, while others started on a different treatment.\nPeople who made the initial switch were more likely to also be taking methotrexate and had been taking Enbrel for a longer period.

        "raw_content": "Scientology critic adds volume to inquiry call\nThe Sydney Morning Herald/January 23, 2010\nNick O'Malley Investigations\nA leading critic of Scientology is to travel to Australia to support Senator Nick Xenophon's campaign for an inquiry into the tax-exempt status of the church.\nGerry Armstrong was an ardent believer in the church and its founder, the science fiction writer L. Ron Hubbard, until he began researching an authorised biography of his hero in 1980.\n\"There was all this material about him that had been discovered and I thought getting a biography published would be a a way of taking care of all the black propaganda, rumours and lies that had been published about him,\" Mr Armstrong said.\n\"Of course I discovered that the lies that I was trying to debunk were actually the truth and that Hubbard had lied to me and to all of us Scientologists and to the whole world.\n\"His whole history was a lie. His education, his military record, the antecedence of Scientology, his inveiglement in the occult prior to his creation of Scientology, his family, his daughter, his wife, his expeditions.\n\"He claimed to be a nuclear physicist - that had a lot of significance to me. The truth was that he flunked the one course in molecular phenomena. He never made it out of second year university. He was not a physicist, he was not a civil engineer, he was not a doctor, and he claimed to be all these things.\"\nMr Armstrong says that when he sought to have the record corrected the church turned on him, eventually suing him for theft of the documents that Hubbard had turned over to him.\nThe church lost the first round, the judge in part finding: \"In addition to violating and abusing its own members' civil rights, the organisation over the years with its 'fair game' doctrine has harassed and abused those persons not in the church whom it perceives as enemies.\n\"The organisation clearly is schizophrenic and paranoid, and this bizarre combination seems to be a reflection of its founder. The evidence portrays a man who has been virtually a pathological liar when it comes to his history, background and achievements.\n\"The writings and documents in evidence additionally reflect his egoism, greed, avarice, lust for power and vindictiveness and aggressiveness against persons perceived by him to be disloyal or hostile.\"\nIn a settlement over a subsequent legal battle, Mr Armstrong agreed not to discuss the church, an agreement he broke, he says, after the church maintained attacks on him. As a result, a warrant exists for his arrest for contempt of court in California and he has fled to Canada.\nHe has since given evidence against Scientology in about 20 cases.\nSenator Xenophon, an independent, made a savage attack on the church in Parliament last year, accusing it of being a criminal organisation \"hiding behind so-called religious beliefs\".\nNeither of the two main parties plans to support his call for an inquiry, and he intends to use Mr Armstrong's profile to increase the pressure on them.\nPolice have not contacted any of the authors of the letters Senator Xenophon tabled, which detailed alleged crimes and abuses by the church.\nTommy Davis, the chief spokesman for the church in the United States, said Senator Xenophon was grandstanding and conducting a witch-hunt. A church spokeswoman called Mr Armstrong a disgruntled apostate.\nMr Armstrong said Senator Xenophon's motion was being closely watched around the world.\n\"It has had a huge impact. I was in Germany in November and December and it was tremendous news and people were following it online very closely. The same thing has been going on here in Canada and I think around the world.\n\"If Australia goes first with a parliamentary or governmental inquiry, hallelujah.\"",

        "title": "Tom Steyer: The shady billionaire with millions of reasons to kill Keystone XL | The Daily Caller",
        "raw_content": "Tom Steyer: The shady billionaire with millions of reasons to kill Keystone XL\nDrew Johnson | National Director, Protect Internet Freedom\nTom Steyer is trying to pull a fast one on Americans.\nThe billionaire hedge fund manager and bank mogul is spending millions of dollars in an attempt to prevent the construction of the Keystone XL pipeline.\nTwo reasons: Money and power.\nSteyer knows the facts. The pipeline would slash energy costs for Americans, facilitate the growth of oil production in the U.S. by increasing access to refineries, generate millions in state and local tax revenues, and reduce the amount of oil America imports from unstable and unfriendly nations by 40 percent. Furthermore, five years of intensive regulatory review by federal and state government has shown Keystone to be an environmentally sound project.\nStill, Steyer continues to fund a campaign of lies and hysterical propaganda in hopes of killing Keystone.\nSteyer\u2019s latest whopper, which comes in an interminable 90-second ad that he funded and stars in, is that Keystone will create only 35 permanent jobs. The assertion that a pipeline that will revolutionize energy production in America would create the same number of jobs as a single Dunkin\u2019 Donuts is embarrassing and absurd. The State Department estimates Keystone will generate 42,100 direct and indirect jobs during a two-year construction phase. Thousands of new jobs will subsequently be created to produce and refine petroleum after completion of the pipeline.\nBy distorting the truth about Keystone\u2019s job creation, economic benefits and environmental concerns, Steyer stands to benefit handsomely.\nMost of Steyer\u2019s $1.4 billion fortune came through investments in fossil fuels. In fact, Steyer\u2019s biggest cash cow is Farallon Capital Management. Farallon has stakes in a number of oil, gas and pipeline companies, including a large investment in Kinder Morgan, an oil and gas pipeline outfit that plans to expand its own TransMountain pipeline to transport oil from Alberta to refineries and shipping terminals in the U.S. and Canada.\nWhile this year alone Steyer poured $1.8 million into a super PAC supporting anti-Keystone candidates and burned through another $1 million creating an advertising campaign attacking Keystone, he has refused to criticize the TransMountain pipeline \u2013 even though TransMountain pipeline is functionally identical to Keystone. That\u2019s because if he succeeds in killing Keystone, TransMountain will be \u201cthe only game in town for transporting oil directly from the oil sands to export terminals, up to 900,000 barrels a day,\u201d according to Investor\u2019s Business Daily.\nIn other words, Steyer will be sitting on a North American pipeline monopoly if Keystone is out of the picture.\nOf course, Steyer is working hard to make his disgusting money grab look like genuine concern for the environment \u2013 and, even then, he stands to make millions.\nSteyer\u2019s anti-Keystone ads are rooted in unreasonable climate change hysteria. But fortunately he just happens to have a cure for climate change: Greener Capital, a venture capital firm Steyer funded with $15 million from his own pocket. Greener Capital profits from green energy handouts and tax credits \u2013 the same handouts and tax credits enacted by the progressive lawmakers who happily snatch up Steyer\u2019s hefty campaign contributions.\nMany people are beginning to tire of Steyer\u2019s sleazy tactics. An ad produced by Steyer\u2019s Pac, NextGen Climate Action, attacking the construction of the Keystone XL pipeline was so inaccurate and misguided that Washington, D.C\u2019s. NBC affiliate banned the spot from its airwaves.\nDays after the ad was banned, Steyer launched a Twitter account and took his pathetic smear campaign to social media. Besides Tweeting climate change hysteria, questionable science and hollow claims, he bragged that \u201c35,000 emails have been sent to the Senate calling on them to stop Keystone.\u201d That (unverified and possibly bogus) number amounts to an email from one in every 9,000 Americans. Compare that paltry figure with the Pew Research Center\u2019s finding last month that 65 percent of Americans favor the construction of Keystone.\nThere is no question that by creating thousands of jobs, ushering a new era of American energy independence and offering a lower cost, environmentally responsible source for oil theKeystone XL pipeline would greatly benefit Americans \u2013 and there\u2019s nothing that Tom Steyer\u2019s money and lies can do to change that.\nNow it is just a matter of whether the Obama Administration will allow the financial interest of one person to supersede what is best for the whole country.\nDrew Johnson is a senior fellow at the Taxpayers Protection Alliance, a nonpartisan, nonprofit educational organization dedicated to a smaller, more responsible government.\nTags : drew johnson tom steyer",

        "raw_content": "Ricky Evans pleased with 2018 form: \u201cHopefully 2019 will be even better\u201d\nRicky Evans is well on his way to being one of the PDC\u2019s rising stars.\nThe 28-year-old was even named as such by Wayne Mardle in a recent Sky Sports piece. There\u2019s no doubting that the Northamptonshire ace, nicknamed \u2018Rapid\u2019 for his quick-fire style, can make a speedy ascension up the PDC rankings. Evans explained in an interview with Josh\u2019s Dartistry that he is aiming to make the step up in 2019.\n\u201cI know I\u2019m capable of hitting big averages and top performances but then again I don\u2019t mind winning with lower key stats- averages look good but I\u2019d rather climb the rankings,\u201d he explained.\n\u201cI admire Wayne (Mardle) as a person and pundit so to have him pick me out is huge. He knows his darts and I\u2019ll be making sure I prove to him and all the other pundits or critics that I\u2019m a world class darter.\u201d\nEuro Tour success\nEvans hit the headlines at the Dutch Darts Championship, coming close to a first PDC European Tour title. Ian White edged him out in the final, but there is no doubting that it was a landmark moment for the Northamptonshire star.\n\u201cIt\u2019s got to be the biggest achievement, winning 5 games on a stage in one event was all new to me, so I was very proud of myself. I didn\u2019t play the best in all regards. But I battled and won a few close 6-5 games instead of being the other way round.\n\u201cI loved being in a Euro final and next time I\u2019m in the latter stages of one, I\u2019ll know what to do and how to prepare as they\u2019re very long days,\u201d he added with confidence.\nConfidence is something that Evans has in abundance. It has helped him to reach new heights; 2019 could mark another step up the PDC ladder. He has top manufacturer Target Darts on his side, and with their help he\u2019ll be entering this season with a fresh look.\n\u201c2019 will be the first year I have my brand new darts and set up, after 15 years with the same darts.\n\u201cI\u2019m very excited to see what occurs, I\u2019ve been practising well and playing solid locally with them. I\u2019m pretty sure Target Darts are keen on selling them sometime in 2019 and that\u2019s mega for me as I\u2019ve always wanted something like this.\u201d\nBye bye Baby Shark?\nOne thing that Evans won\u2019t be taking into the 2019 is \u2018Baby Shark\u2019. The viral kids\u2019 tune became his walk-on in 2018, but BDO women\u2019s world champion \u2013 and Target stablemate \u2013 Mikuru Suzuki has very much made it her own.\n\u201cMikuru is a world champion and a huge star now, so she more than deserves it as her walk on. I\u2019ll find something stupid and wacky to walk on to, I was contemplating doing the conga or YMCA, something to get the crowd on my side and boogieing is what I\u2019d love!\u201d Evans joked.\nIf Evans continues on his current trajectory, we could be hearing the Village People on a lot of top PDC stages this season.\nTags: PDC | Ricky Evans",

The artists will have their studios open from 12-6PM each of those weekends.\nYou can plan your studio tour here, and all events are open and free to the public. Go buy some artwork!\nMPAartfest\nMPAartfest is Sunday, October 5, from 10 am - 5 pm at the McLean Project for the Arts' Central Park, (McLean Community Center in case of soggy park) 1234 Ingleside Avenue in McLean, Virginia. Work by 40 artists and craftspeople will be available for purchase.\nWanna go to a Maryland opening tomorrow?\nThe Crossing of the Creatures is the title of Marta P\u00e9rez Garc\u00eda's new color woodcuts and paintings opening at H & F Fine Arts in Mount Rainier, MD tomorrow. Curated by Marvette P\u00e9rez & Tonya Jordan the exhibition goes through November 1, 2008 with an opening reception on Saturday, October 4, 2008.\nMaster woodcut artist and painter Marta P\u0117rez Garc\u00eda will exhibit her latest prints, paintings and drawings exploring space, performance, movement and the translocations and transformations of creatures.\nThis is a blue chip artist as Marta P\u00e9rez Garc\u00eda is winner of the 2001 Grand Prix Latin American & Caribbean Biennale of Engraving and has exhibited at the Grand Palais, in Paris, France.\nFor years now I have been bitching about the visual arts coverage decline in the Washington Post, which started many years ago and which was essentially destroyed while Eugene Robinson was the editor of the Style section.\nBut this piece on KISS's Paul Stanley will be remembered as the proverbial camel backbreaker:\nPerhaps it was inevitable. Paul Stanley -- known for wearing red lipstick, white foundation and a black star over his right eye -- has transferred his makeup skills to canvas. The Kiss frontman has a booming art career, to the tune of $2 million in sales last year, and will visit the D.C. area next week when his paintings go on display at Wentworth Gallery in Tysons Galleria.\nI am embarrassed the the nation's capital has a newspaper that allows the distribution of drivel like this:\nAn original Paul Stanley can sell for about $70,000; a small print goes for $1,000, though Stanley insists on calling it a \" 'limited-edition gicl\u00e9e,' because 'print' sounds like something you tore out of a magazine.\" His customers range from Kiss diehards who don't go to art galleries often (or ever) to collectors who wouldn't dream of attending a metal concert. He has had about 18 gallery shows over the past 18 months.\nThis is not an anti Paul Stanley rant, whom I suspect is an adequate painter clearly employing his celebrity status to hawk artwork, nor is it a dig at the article's author, whom I am sure responds to the paper's pressure to write articles (in an art column) that focus on celebrities whenever possible. This is certainly not a dig at the hardworking and highly successful Wentworth businesses, all 31 of them across the nation. If you want wall decor by Peter Max, Alexandra Nechita, Paul Stanley, Charles Fazzino, David Schluss and Grace Slick, they're your place!\nThis rant is a vomiting on the leadership of a newspaper that does not understand, nor wishes to understand, the reasons that many people like me, feel that they have failed miserably to execute their role and mission when it comes to the arts. Read the article here.\nAnd if you think I am being tough on the WaPo, you should see what madman Bailey is saying. Read it here.\nPaul Stanley on his art...\nDrawn to Washington, a juried exhibition celebrating the work of Mid-Atlantic printmakers, has an opening reception on October 4, 2008 in the Main Gallery at Pyramid Atlantic.\nThe exhibit showcases the work of thirty-one printmakers from the District of Columbia, Maryland, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Virginia. The opening reception is from 6-8 pm, Saturday October 4th and will feature a talk by the juror, Shelley Langdale, Associate Curator of Prints and Drawings at the Philadelphia Museum of Art.\nOne artist from the exhibit will have their print selected by Katherine Blood, Curator of Fine Prints for the Library of Congress and will enter the permanent collection of the Library of Congress. The Washington Print Club is a co-sponsor of the exhibit and makes the purchase for the Library of Congress.\nThe exhibit runs through November 20th. Pyramid Atlantic is located at 8230 Georgia Ave. Silver Spring, MD.\nTim Tate opens in LA\nTim Tate: A Look Into a Video Mind opens at Billy Shire Fine Arts with an opening reception on Saturday, October 11th, from 7-10 pm.\nThis will be Tate's solo debut in Los Angeles. You can see some of the videos online here.\nAnd the week after that Tate opens in London in his solo debut in London.\nTate is also currently showing in a three person show at Maurine Littleton in DC and a solo at Pentimenti Gallery in Philadelphia and at a major group show at VisArts in Rockville, MD.\nYou know what I've been telling you about Tate for years...",

        "raw_content": "Are You Ready For FGCU To Dunk Its Way Into Your Heart? A Guide To March Madness's Most Entertaining Team\nFiled to: florida gulf coast eaglesFiled to: florida gulf coast eagles\nbrett comer\nchase fieler\nfgcu eagles\nThe Florida Gulf Coast Eagles are the best thing to happen to the NCAA tournament in a long time. Here's everything you need to know about them.\nSo, why are they so great?\nObviously, it's an incredible Cinderella story. A 15 seed has never made it to the Sweet 16. Remember when George Mason and VCU made their Final Four runs and became America's sweethearts? They were both 11 seeds, veritable powerhouses compared to these Eagles. If FGCU wins just a couple more, it will undoubtedly become the most memorable underdog in tournament history.\nBut what really makes the Eagles great is how they have been winning. This isn't a a case of a longshot getting hot from behind the arc for a few games, or skating by much better teams thanks to a few fluky plays. This is the story of an athletic, balls-to-the-wall team outclassing \"better\" teams, and doing it with style. The Eagles win by running the break, attacking the rim, forcing turnovers, and never being afraid to throw alley-oops. Everything that's fun about watching basketball, FGCU is designed to do. Here, just see for yourself:\nIt's no wonder they had a rap song called \"Dunk City\" created in their honor.\nHoly shit, those guys are awesome. But who's that guy? You know the one.\nSo, you probably couldn't help but notice that flying white boy, the one who left a crater in Georgetown's institutional memory with this vicious alley-oop, and also did this. That's Chase Fieler, the 6-foot-8 junior forward who is the team's best high-flying finisher as well as a perfectly conceptualized Florida bro. When he's not finishing devastating alley-oops, Fieler likes to lay out on the beach \"four or five times a week.\" The beach that's just a few steps from his dorm room.\nWhat about that point guard? He seems pretty great too.\nThat's Brett Comer. Comer was a high school teammate of Austin Rivers, and he averaged 8.1 points and 6.6 assists per game a sophomore for FGCU this year. He's reached another level in the tournament, though, and has been shredding teams with slick passes and his ability to push the break. He put up 12 points and 10 assists against Georgetown on Friday, and dished another 14 dimes to go along with 10 points against San Diego State. As fun as it is to watch his teammates throw down dunks and alley-oops, many of Comer's passes have been just as awesome. He plays fast and free, has a Steve Nash-like ability to keep his dribble in traffic, and is the engine that drives FGCU's offense.\nComer's story isn't all sunshine. His father, who had been his AAU coach, died of lung cancer three years ago. In the aftermath, Comer suffered from anxiety, mood swings, and bouts of depression. He spoke to Sports Illustrated about the experience of watching his father die: \"I feel like it literally killed me. That's stuff I'll never be able to forget for the rest of my life.\"\nComer has also been handling his team's success rather adorably on Twitter, and even got a shout out from Plies. You know, Plies!\nAnd what about that guy with the dreadlocks? He looks fun.\nThat's Sherwood Brown, a 6-foot-4 guard who plays bigger (he averaged 6.6 rebounds per game this year) and can always be counted on to bring some added entertainment value to the game. Here he is blowing kisses to the crowd after last night's victory:\nAnd here he is taking a break from the Georgetown game to dap up Kevin Harlan:\nBrown, the only starting senior, is more than just a showboat. He and fellow guard Bernard Thompson have been a fantastic one-two scoring punch in both of Florida Gulf Coast's tournament games. He poured in 24 points against Georgetown to go along with nine rebounds, and hit San Diego State with 17 points and eight boards.\nThese guys seem like they have a lot of fun.\nThey do, and that's another big reason why their performance in this tournament has been so enjoyable. It's refreshing to see a college team succeed without forgetting the fact that they are, you know, college dudes. These aren't the young men of Duke, souls sucked dry by the Krzyzewskian ethos, servants to The System. These are guys who like to dunk and play basketball and have fun and entertain, which is the entire point of basketball. How can you not like a team that celebrates like this?\nThat dancing team manager is everything that is good about the world.\nWhat about their coach? He's got to be a pretty cool guy if his players are so happy.\nYes, Andy Enfield is a super cool guy. After the San Diego State game, he told reporters that he doesn't want his team to take things too seriously, and that he prefers them to play an open, free-wheeling style. He also gave the best dead-pan quote of the tournament before the game. From ESPN:\n\"Do you know where I can find a Diet Coke?'' he asked. In no particular hurry to go anywhere, he chatted about kids and Philadelphia and eventually wound around to how his Florida Gulf Coast team was feeling before its game against San Diego State.\n\"Well,'' he said about as matter-of-factly as he asked for that Diet Coke, \"if we play well we should win.''\nThe worst thing about March Madness is the TV-enabled beatification of the coaching class, which by and large is made up of grim, glowering fascists who left their sense of humor back at the 1989 Nike ABCD Camp. Maybe Enfield will wind up like everyone else, but so far, he's been a delight. Maybe that has something to do with his unconventional background. A former assistant coach for the Bucks and Celtics, Enfield left the NBA to help found a tech startup that made him a millionaire before his 40th birthday. He then got back into the coaching game, working as an assistant at Florida State before taking the head coaching gig at FGCU. He's also married to a former Victoria's Secret model, whom he took to Taco Bell on their first date.\nOK, this team is great. I'm all in. But is there anything that isn't likable about them?\nWell, not the team in particular, but FGCU itself is kind of strange. The university has only had on-campus students since 1997, and the economics department is aggressively, evangelically pro-capitalism. Like, every-student-gets-a-copy-of-Atlas-Shrugged pro-capitalism. It's the Chicago school of economics with a better tan. Here's a really weird website that is run by one of the economics professors and gives off a bit of a 9/11 Truther vibe. But let's not concern ourselves with that right now.

        "raw_content": "HomeIn our Native LandA Call for Stability and Sustainability\nOn any given day in the Speaker\u2019s office I might meet with as many as 10 different business associations, local governments, organizations, or individuals\u2014people involved in fisheries or trucking, tourism or tribal councils, oil & gas or education. More and more, these Alaskans are bringing me the same simple message: \u201cWe need to return stability and sustainability to our economy, and it has to happen as soon as possible.\u201d\nThe state\u2019s fiscal crisis has lasted too long, and the longer it remains unsolved, the more it sidelines Alaska\u2019s progress. For too many of our cities, towns, villages, and schools, as well as businesses large and small, planning has become all but impossible. Investments have been put on hold or put Outside. It\u2019s as though the future has been put on the back burner.\nAppropriately, Alaskans are calling for action with increasing urgency. Last Thursday I received the following statement from the Alaska Federation of Natives:\nAt its quarterly board meeting yesterday, the board of directors of the Alaska Federation of Natives, the state\u2019s largest statewide Native organization, fortified its position on the state\u2019s fiscal crisis. AFN strongly urges the Alaska State Legislature to pass a comprehensive solution to the state fiscal crisis in the 30th Legislative Session. As part of a comprehensive solution AFN supports the creation of an income tax, but adamantly opposes any regressive taxes, such as a sales tax, that would unfairly burden rural Alaska.\n\u201cThe Walker administration, along with many Alaskan economists, has repeatedly stressed the urgency of a fiscal solution this year,\u201d said Julie Kitka, AFN President. \u201cWe join the governor in demanding that our legislators get the job done now and not push it down the line where the crisis will cripple our state\u2019s economy.\u201d\nAFN recognizes that a fair solution spreads the burden among all Alaskans while maintaining the state\u2019s constitutional obligations and responsibilities to its citizens. No single fix on its own will eliminate the huge budget deficit, and each impacts the economy and groups of people differently. A sustainable budget going forward should include new revenues such as an income tax, smart restructuring of the Permanent Fund Earnings Reserve while ensuring continued dividends, and precise budget cuts that don\u2019t disproportionately impact our rural Alaska communities.\nWhen it comes to my goals for this legislative session, I could hardly have said it better myself. The cornerstone bills put forward by the House Majority Coalition include:\n\u2022HB 115, which restructures the Earnings Reserve Account in a way that helps pay for essential services while protecting PFDs, growing the Permanent Fund, and raising new revenues through a modest income tax that still leaves us among the lowest-taxed states in the Union.\n\u2022The Operating Budget that the House Finance Committee will finalize next week reduces spending as carefully as possible to safeguard the education of our kids, the security of our communities, and development of our economies.\n\u2022HB 111, the Oil & Gas tax credit bill, that further cuts state spending by scaling back unsustainable tax credit payments to oil companies on the North Slope. By making the program sustainable, this gives certainty to industry while continuing to incentivize exploration and development.\nThe point of all these measures is to close the $3 billion fiscal gap once and for all and restore strength and resiliency to our state. Transitioning Alaska to more diversified and stable sources of revenue promises enormous long-term benefits. After decades on \u201cthe boom and bust rollercoaster,\u201d Alaska communities and businesses will finally enjoy the kind of stability and sustainability that leads to lasting prosperity.",

Our mission is to ensure that people with disabilities are full social and economic partners, within their families and within a fully accessible community. ILRCSF\u2019s mission is achieved by systems change, community education, partnerships with business, community organizations and government, and consumer directed services. We work to empower individuals and community, so that all people with disabilities have as full, productive and independent lives as they so choose.\nILRCSF provides three services to the disability community: information, support, and advocacy.

His maternal grandmother was an undocumented immigrant who had to pretend to be part of someone else\u2019s family to get into the U.S. His maternal grandfather came here on the run after a failed assassination attempt on a Czarist official. His father worked partly as an organizer for a CIO union. He was told as a child to do work that built the world, that working to become wealthy was a waste of everybody\u2019s time. Herb says some of his heroes are: Saul Alinsky, a great community organizer; Martin Luther King, Jr., the greatest person who has lived in his lifetime; Abraham Joshua Heschel, a rabbi who marched with MLK and prayed with his feet; Judy Heumann, leader of the independent living movement; Patricia Pascoe, a self-described crazy lady who taught Herb how to live with his disability and never stop believing in a better world. Herb\u2019s work over 45 years was almost all as a teacher and advocate in the disability rights arena. He worked for over 30 years at the Independent Living Resource Center of SF, which he calls a gift he always tried to be worthy of. Mantras Herb tries to live by: Nothing about us without us. When faced with an impossible dilemma, don\u2019t try something else; just get past it, anyway. Answers are easy. Good questions are hard, but more valuable.\n504 sit in, Accessibility, ADA, Advocacy, California, Civil Rights, Disability, Disability Community, Disability Culture, Disability History, Disability identity, disability pride, Discrimination, Independent Living, San Francisco, Section 504\nPrevious Previous post: Q&A with Cathy Kudlick and Fran Osborne, Part Two\nNext Next post: 7/21 Community Dialogue on Assistive Technology in San Francisco\nDisability Visibility Project DVP Interview on KALW radio!!",

We will be in Disney on ger birthday.\u201d\nSo, someone is celebrating a milestone birthday at Walt Disney World Resort. How wonderful! Here are a few things you could do to celebrate 50 magical years:\nReserve a private Illuminations:Reflections of Earth cruise for your party of up to 10 passengers by calling (407) WDW-PLAY, or (407) 939-7529. The water craft will park just inside the bridge nearest the International Gateway to Epcot. The boat will be stocked with a variety of non-alcoholic beverages and snacks for you to enjoy. You can even call room service at Disney's Yacht Club Resort in advance to order a birthday cake, if you like. You will be so close to the fireworks display that you will feel the warmth of the pyrotechnics. The captain of your boat will decorate the water craft with balloons and a \"Happy Birthday\" banner if you let them know in advance that someone is celebrating a birthday.\nStop by Guest Relations at the first theme park you visit to pick up a complimentary birthday button. If the birthday girl wears the button throughout your vacation, you'll be amazed at the wonderful and widespread good wishes she will receive.\nSend her for some pampering at Senses - A Disney Spa at Disney's Grand Floridian Resort. I'm a big fan of the Rose Renewal Facial. Or, if she'd prefer some girl talk during her spa time, book simultaneous pedicures for her and a friend. I did that with my sister and niece a few years ago and we had the best time. The pedicure room at this spa is simply enchanting.\nTake plenty of pictures to remember this momentous vacation. The birthday girl is going to want to remember this magical trip forever.\nOn 7/27/2017 Robyn from OH Asked: We are thinking of bringing our daughter down for her 16th birthday and will be at the Magic Kingdom for her special day.

        "title": "Preaching on Romans 3:21-31 \u2014 Display The Gospel",
        "raw_content": "One of the most humbling and sobering tasks I have the privilege of doing in ministry is preaching. There is a unique weight that comes with handling God's Word accurately and knowing that I will be held to a higher standard of judgment before God (James 3:1) on how and what I taught to those hearing my sermons.\nWhile this is a weighty task, it is also one I've grown to deeply appreciate. Nicole and I have recently ventured out of our home church, Risen Life Church, in order to be a part of the core group of people planting a new church here in Salt Lake City: Redeeming Life Church. You can read more about the planting of this little community here.\nI have been asked to preach this coming Sunday at Redeeming Life Church on Romans 3:21-31. We'd love to have you join us if you're interested. Here are some of my thoughts on that text that I've been struck by personally.\nFor the first three and a half chapters of Romans, Paul has been laying out the bad news of our hopelessly wicked state apart from the transformational power of the Gospel. Up to this point, the wrath and judgment of God has been heavy and Paul has gone to great lengths to paint this vivid picture.\nAs we enter verse 21 of chapter three, Paul begins to turn the corner and paint for us another picture, but this time, this is one we can truly rejoice in as we see that the righteousness of God is shown in the Gospel, which contains His sovereign plan to justify men by faith alone through the redeeming work of Christ on the cross.\nPaul unpacks this incredible plan and shows the Christian audience in Rome, with a special emphasis towards the Jews, through many Old Testament allusions, that this seemingly \u201cnew\u201d doctrine is in fact exactly what \u201cthe Law and the Prophets\u201d have been teaching all along.\nIn verse 25, we read that Jesus was \u201cput forward as a propitiation by his blood...\u201d This is especially significant as Paul communicates the nullification of the old sacrificial system that we read about in Lev. 16 known as the Day of Atonement. This Jewish sacrificial system was incredibly involved, time-consuming, specific and messy. Every year the high priest was allowed in the Most Holy Place in order to make atonement for the sins of the entire nation of Israel. Israel would publicly confess their sins to the priest and the priest would take three animals for the sin sacrifices: one bull for himself and his household and two goats for the nation of Israel. After sacrificing the bull for himself and his household, the priest would then sacrifice the first of the two goats. The first goat would be slaughtered to represent God forgiving Israel\u2019s sin. The second goat would have all the sins of Israel confessed over it as the high priest placed both hands on the head of the goat. The goat would then be sent out into the desert to represent God removing Israel\u2019s guilt.\nThese details are paramount to the language Paul is using here in Romans because what Paul is saying is that Jesus\u2019 death replaced this system once and for all! Our sins can now be forgiven and our guilt removed solely through the redeeming work of Christ on the cross! Hebrews 1:3 also confirms this truth by saying Jesus \u201csat down\u201d which contrasts the constant work of the priest offering sacrifices (a work which was never completely done) with the complete and final work Jesus accomplished through his death. The next part of that same verse in Hebrews 1:3 says that \u201che sat down at the right hand of God\u201d. The place in which Jesus sat down happens to be the highest place of authority and honor \u2013 meaning his work was not only complete and final but it was also perfect.\nThis is good news! Because of God\u2019s righteousness, we have the opportunity to receive, by faith, the work of Christ in our life for the forgiveness of our sins and the removal of guilt and shame. In what areas of your life do you need to rest in the finished and perfect work of Christ?\nThis marvelous work that was accomplished through Christ should lead us to worship and to examine our lives in light of this truth. If Jesus has removed all the barriers between Himself and us, are we fully embracing the relationship with Jesus we can now have?\nThis truth should also humble us. Apart from Christ, there is nothing any of us can do to gain a right standing before God. This leads us to the last few verses of this section where Paul implores us that there is no room for boasting in anything we can accomplish (Eph. 2:8-10). The Jews were worried that Jesus would nullify the law and all their customs, traditions, and everything they stood for \u2013 but here, Paul explains that it actually confirms their religion and we see the way of salvation tied directly to faith, which helps us understand the Jewish customs and traditions better.\nAs you meditate and read this section of Romans, it is my hope and prayer that you would lift high the name of Jesus, knowing that He has accomplished salvation for you, through faith, and that you can rest, live, and have your being in the perfect and finished work of Christ!\npreaching, Gospel, Redeeming Life ChurchBrett Ricley October 28, 2014 romans, gospelComment",

In 1948 Najin and Calvin Cho, with their young daughter Miran, travel from South Korea to the United States in search of new opportunities. Wary of the challenges they know will face them, Najin and Calvin make the difficult decision to leave their other daughter, Inja, behind with their extended family; soon, they hope, they will return to her. But then war breaks out in Korea, and there is no end in sight to the separation. Miran grows up in prosperous American suburbia, under the shadow of the daughter left behind, as Inja grapples in her war-torn land with ties to a family she doesn\u2019t remember.

        "title": "What is the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)?",
        "raw_content": "There are many laws that have been written to protect the rights of America\u2019s people. There are rulings that protect children, the elderly, and everyone in between. Some laws protect people from being discriminated against when it comes to race, sexual orientation, or religious views. Other laws might protect people of certain ages, and genders. There are laws that require both male and females to be paid based on skill and experience, and not just on gender. There are even laws that protect voters and women who are pregnant. The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) came into effect in 1990 and protects people with disabilities in America. It is considered a civil rights law that ensures individuals with disabilities will not be discriminated against in jobs, schools, and communities all over the country.\nWhy is the Americans with Disabilities Act important?\nAll laws that protect U.S. citizens are important to ensuring everyone is treated fairly. The laws protect everyone\u2019s general safety and hold others accountable for following them. When they are not followed, citizens have the right to sue others and have their case heard in a court. Laws also ensure that U.S. citizens are able to exercise the rights that we were born into, no matter where we came from, or what our situation is. The Americans with Disabilities Act, also known as ADA, is a law that protects people with disabilities from being discriminated against when it comes to employment, public transportation, education, and other community services. It ensures that those with disabilities have access to the same opportunities as people without disabilities, so that they, too, can have a good quality of life.\nWho Does the Americans with Disabilities Act Apply to?\nThere are many different disabilities and conditions that people may suffer from, so it is important to know and understand what types of disabilities are covered under this act. While the Americans with Disabilities Act does not list every disability that is covered under the act, it is defined on the Civil Rights Division of the U.S. Department of Justice\u2019s The United States Justice Department as, \u201ca person who has a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activities, a person who has a history or record of such an impairment, or a person who is perceived by others as having such an impairment\u201d. A person who is unable to drive because of a disability would be covered under this act because their driving would be considered a major life activity. Since their life is impacted, they would be covered under the ADA. This person would be able to have access to appropriate public transportation, handicap parking spots, and community organizations must make a good faith effort to make public transportation physically accessible to those that cannot drive themselves. This individual would also be covered under other aspects of the Americans with Disabilities Act.\nIn addition, the Americans with Disabilities Act also applies to anyone who is considered disabled because of a mental impairment. A mental impairment might be a psychiatric disability that impacts one or more major life activities. For example, disabled veterans or those who suffer from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) would be covered under this law. Psychiatric disabilities may be determined by using the DSM-IV (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 4th. Edition), and people would be diagnosed by a qualified psychiatrist.\nWhile this resource defines many disabilities and conditions and may be used to identify and diagnose those with a mental impairment, not all conditions listed in the DSM-IV are covered under the Americans with Disabilities Act. For example, drug abuse might be considered a mental impairment under the DSM-IV, but is not a diagnosis that is considered to be a disability according to the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. In addition, while stress may be a contributing factor to some mental impairments, it is not in itself enough of a diagnosis to protect someone under the Americans with Disabilities Act. Those are just a few examples of some conditions that may not be considered a disability under this law.\nWho Needs to Know about the Americans with Disabilities Act?\nAll public employers, restaurant and hotel owners, those that care for public buildings and transportation, and educators need to know about Americans with Disabilities Act. No matter what your job or profession is, you will likely come across many people with disabilities throughout your life. While treating everyone fairly is the right thing to do, unfortunately, it doesn\u2019t always happen. All people need rules, and some people even need rules to make sure they are treating others with respect. While this doesn\u2019t necessarily mean they will follow the laws, it can assist those who are not being treated fairly if they needed to go to court and fight for their rights.\nWhile some people have reason to understand the Americans with Disabilities Act more than others, everyone should at least be aware of the law. Knowing about the law can help you protect and understand the rights of those you love, whether they have a disability or not. If you or someone you love were to ever develop a disability later on in life, then you would know how to ensure they are being treated fairly according to the law.\nWhat Are the Different Sections of the Americans with Disabilities Act?\nThere are different sections of the Americans with Disabilities Act that define different parts of the law. Five major titles are the basis for the act, and are listed below with the important points for each one.\nThe first title of the Americans with Disabilities Act covers employment for people with both mental and physical disabilities. It states that those with disabilities are entitled to the same procedures when it comes to applying for and being hired for a job. This means they need to have access to job applications, be considered for positions based on their qualifications, and to also be considered for promotions and raises as an employee. The term \u201ccovered entities\u201d refers to employers that have 15 or more regular employees and also includes labor organizations and agencies for employment. This first title also protects employees and candidates for employment from being questioned about their disability, whether obvious or perceived, or forcing them to undergo a medical evaluation.\nAny medical information that is obtained about employees must also be kept confidential. The types of discrimination that is barred under this law would include, but not be limited to denying employment or firing those that have either a defined or apparent disability. Businesses also need to make sure they are giving their employees with disabilities reasonable accommodations to help them do their job successfully. This accommodation might include helping them with assistive equipment, scheduling modifications, and communicating effectively about the job that needs to be completed. In contrast, a business does not have to offer these accommodations if it were to cause an undue hardship, which might be that it would cost too much or create some other kind of hinderance on the business.\nSince part of the definition of a disability states, \u201ca person who has a history or record of such an impairment,\u201d it is important to also note that if a person is no longer disabled, their current and future employers are still required to give them the proper accommodations they might need to complete the job.\nThis title deals with all public entities, including transportation, which is offered by a state, county, city, municipality, or school district. All of these localities must comply with the regulations stated by title II. People with disabilities legally have to have access to all programs offered by the aforementioned entities. That means that any program offered must not discriminate against those with disabilities. If there is a program offered, reasonable accommodations must be made for the person to be able to participate, regardless of their disability. This not only includes access to participate, but also means that they need to be able to have physical access as well. Title II states that there will need to be enough room and transportation accommodations made for those with disabilities to be a part of programs offered.\nThe other important part that is included in Title II is regarding public transportation. There are regulations, according to the Department of Transportation and includes the National Railroad Passenger Association, which you probably know as Amtrak. There are also other commuter rails that are included in this title, so they are not just limited to Amtrak, but any other rail system. These entities have to ensure that their facilities are handicap accessible, including that there is enough space when it comes to accommodating passengers in wheelchairs when entering or being on public transportation. This title would also support accommodating children with intellectual and physical disabilities with special transportation to and from school if they are unable to use transportation offered by the school districts because of their disabilities.\nIn addition, this title also means that housing offered by the state or local government, including housing assistance programs, needs to adhere to title II. These establishments must also follow regulations when it comes to the regulations mentioned in title II. The group that works to enforce these provisions are met are the Office of Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity.\nThe third title involves fair access and enjoyment of any local services, goods, and facilities by someone who is running that business, regardless of whether they own, rent or lease the building that they work out of. This includes restaurants, stores, hotels, parks and recreation facilities, schools, and basically any public place. It also states that any new facilities being built after the effective date, which was in July 1992, must comply with the regulations. Any building that already exists has a duty to get rid of any barriers that would prevent persons with disabilities from enjoying their service, good or facility. Interestingly enough, private institutions, including clubs or religious organizations are not required to comply with title III. Historical establishments must also comply, unless the changes they need to make would destroy or alter the elements of the past. In 2010, a regulation was added by the Department of Justice in regard to swimming pools and spas. These public facilities much have handicap accessible entrances, among other regulations.\nIn addition, the third title also protects persons with disabilities when it comes to service animals. This part allows persons with disabilities to have access to their service animals regardless of where they are when out in public. According to the Americans with Disabilities Act, it also protects businesses and states that they need to be compensated if their business was damaged because they allowed a service animal into their establishment. While business owners can ask if an animal is a service animal, they cannot ask the person about their specific disability. The only way a person with a disability can be asked to leave an establishment is if their service animal is out of control and unable to be controlled by their owner, or if the service animal is a threat to the people in the business. Businesses are not required, under the law, to take care of service animals or give them a place to go to the bathroom. Those responsibilities are up to the owners.\nThose that do bring their service dog to establishments cannot be charged a fee for the animal\u2019s entrance or be treated differently for having the animal with them. This means they cannot be asked to sit in the corner, away from others just because they have a service dog with them. Establishes reserve the right to ask for the owner to pay for damages incurred by the service animal.\nTitle IV is an interesting one because it moved to amend the Communications Act of 1934. This act basically states that everyone needs to have access to communication. The amendment that was made with the Americans with Disabilities Act stated that telecommunications companies needed to make sure that what they offered was able to be accessed and used by persons with disabilities. This mostly applies to those who are deaf, hard of hearing, or have speech impairments. This part of the act made provisions that persons with disabilities needed to have access to public teletypewriter (TTY) machines and other TDD, telecommunications devices for the deaf.\nTelecommunication Relay Services (TRS) were also made available all over the country after the Americans with Disabilities Act took place. These days, these calls are not made using the internet. Also, Video Relay Services (VRS) calls and text calls are also options for those with disabilities that impact their use of regular telephone and communication services. You may recall watching TV and having the option for closed caption. This is a service offered to the hearing impaired, so they can read what is being said on a TV program. As the internet became more widely used, changes needed to be made to this title.\nAs technology becomes more prominent in our lives, there will also need to be changes made to the way that technology is used by those with impairments and disabilities. The Federal Communications Commission is responsible for ensuring these accommodations are made for persons with disabilities under this act.\nTitle V deals with other miscellaneous regulations that are not mentioned in the four previous titles. These are the technical provisions that protect civil rights when it comes to the Americans with Disabilities Act. This last title states that the provisions in this act do not alter or trump anything in the Section 504 act. The Section 504 act, which is part of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 ensures that people with disabilities are guaranteed certain rights. Title V implies that these laws will work together to support those with disabilities, but ADA will not change the laws that are already in place. This title also protects individuals with disabilities from coercion or retaliation for exercising their rights in accordance with the Americans with Disabilities Act.\nWhy was the ADA Written?\nHere\u2019s a little history when it comes to the Americans with Disabilities Act. When the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 came into action, this was the first time that treating those with physical or mental disabilities was seen as discrimination. Prior to that, it was happening, but there was nothing in place that prevented anyone from doing it. The consequences these people suffered beforehand were just seen as a natural occurrence due to their impairments. The Section 504 Act, which was part of the Rehabilitation Act really made way for the Americans with Disabilities Act years before. To get the Section 504 Act written and put into place, it took activists and sit-ins to finally get the job done.\nThere were many prominent leaders and persons with disabilities, who fought for the rights of our U.S. citizens. There was opposition from religious groups and businesses. There was a \u201cCapital Crawl\u201d before the act was passed that involved those with disabilities crawling up the stairs of the U.S. Capital to make a statement. For over 20 years, many activists had lobbied for legislation when it came to protecting those with disabilities. Even though some laws had been passed with the Rehabilitation Act and Section 504, there was still so much more needed. President H.W. Bush signed the Americans with Disabilities Act in July of 1990, making the rest history.\nAmericans with Disabilities Act, Section 504, Rehabilitation Act of 1973, and IDEA\nThe Rehabilitation Act, Section 504 and IDEA (Individuals with Disabilities Education Act) are some of the other civil rights acts that state laws that protect people with disabilities, along with the Americans with Disabilities Act. Together, these are the major laws regarding protection for individuals whose lives are impacted by physical or mental impairments. Each has its own purpose in the history of civil rights, but all of them protect U.S. citizens in some way, and ensure they are treated fairly and given access to the same services as those without disabilities.\nThe Rehabilitation Act of 1973 protected those with disabilities from discrimination. Section 504, which is part of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 guarantees rights to those with disabilities, but is not as specific as the Americans with Disabilities Act. The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) pledges that students with disabilities have access to a free and fitting public education. This act states regulations about how school districts should be providing early intervention services, identifying students with disabilities, and ensuring they have access to proper accommodations and modifications. This law drives special education programs across the country. Together, these three laws protect all people with physical and mental impairments.\nCourt Cases and Law Regarding ADA\nAs with any law, there are court cases that impact the law. When laws are written, there may be some discrepancies or pieces that are left out. When an event happens that is questionable, a person has the right to bring their issue to the courts to determine what actions need to be taken to remedy the situation. Here are a few of those cases that have helped to define different pieces of the ADA.\nIn 2006, a class action lawsuit was filed in the state of California. The National Federation of the Blind sued Target Corporation because the company failed to create their website in a way that would blind people were able to access it and make purchases. Since this was a situation that involved the internet, that had not been defined when the law came out in 1990, so that was the question that was brought to the courts. An important question was, did this act apply to the internet? A settlement was reached in 2008, which meant that Target agreed to change its website and policies and paid a settlement of $6,000,000 to compensate attorney\u2019s and other fees associated with the case.\nMichigan Paralyzed Veterans of America v. The University of Michigan\nThis case involved The University of Michigan and the Michigan division of the Paralyzed Veterans of America group. They claimed that the stadium at the University of Michigan failed to have enough seats that accommodated those with disabilities. They also felt that the stadium failed to include disabled restrooms, parking and concessions. Settled in 2008, the stadium had to enhance their accommodations to include 329 wheelchair accessible seats, as well as seats in the clubhouse. This law allowed the Department of Justice to define some regulations that were previously unclear in the Americans with Disabilities Act, which can help to make specific recommendations for similar situations in the future.\nSpector v. Norwegian Cruise Line Ltd.\nThis case took place in 2005 and was decided by the U.S. Supreme Court. Norwegian Cruise Line Ltd. felt that since their ships were flying the flag of a different nation, they should not have to follow the Americans with Disabilities Act. At first, a federal court in Florida deemed this was okay, and that the cruise line, in fact, did not have to comply with the regulations. Then, the Supreme Court overruled this decision stating that the cruise line had a headquarter in the United States, so they did have to comply with the ADA regulations. The ruling also took place because much of the business they did was in the United States, as well, and they used U.S. ports. This is a case that could help to determine other similar cases.\nThere are many other court cases that have also impacted the Americans with Disabilities Act. These cases have changed the way that the act functions, and they help the regulations to be more specific when it comes to certain situations involving persons with disabilities. Court cases play a major role in continuing to ensure the rights of U.S. citizens are adhered to.\nWhile it seems that there is a lot to know about the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), it is important to understand that people with disabilities deserve the same rights and treatment as those without disabilities. As an employer, educator, or business owner, it is also very important to be familiar with this act, as well as with the other acts that protect the rights of the people you work with each day. Following this act is not only the law, but it helps to support those with disabilities in our communities. By guaranteeing them these rights, they can be an active part of communities, which makes them even better. This act gives all people with impairments access to the same services and opportunities as those without disabilities. Laws are what help us to protect others and ensure they are being treated equally, and are necessary to ensuring everyone in our country has access to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.",

        "title": "Q&A about SUM",
        "raw_content": "Q&A with David about SUM\nTell us a bit about Sum.\nSum is a work of literary fiction composed of forty mutually exclusive stories. Each story offers a different reason for our existence and the meaning of life and death. These are not serious proposals; they're satirical and thought provoking lenses through which to see our lives at new angles.\nIn different stories, God is a married couple, God is a committee, God is a species of dimwitted creatures, or God is the size of a bacterium. In other stories there is no God at all and people in the afterlife battle over stories of His non-existence. In other stories we are mobile rovers built by planetary cartographers, or we are ten-dimensional creatures taking a vacation in three-dimensional bodies, or our life runs backwards after the expansion of the universe reverses and you get to see all the details you mis-remembered.\nHow long did it take you to write Sum?\nSeven years. I wrote over 75 stories, but only included those in the book that created the right combination.\nTell us about the title.\nI chose Sum for three reasons. First, it's Latin for 'I am',\u009d as in cogito ergo sum. Second, it's related to the Latin term for the highest, as in summa cum laude, or the English word summit. Third, the point of this book is that the whole is greater than the sum of the parts. As you read the stories, it becomes clear that they are mutually exclusive and that there's something bigger emerging from adding them all together.\nWhat is that something bigger?\nIt's the appreciation that there are a lot of possibilities available for what's going on out there. I'm often surprised by the number of people who seem to have total certainty about the religious stories they were raised on. They have no doubt about the absolute truth of their story, even though every other adherent in every other religion shares that same certainty and knows that all other religions are patently untrue. I'm dismayed at how little we explore the giant number of other possibilities. There are ideas far beyond the things you'll find in anyone's bible, and there's too little dialog about this. So I don't think the important thing should be to commit to a particular story when there's no evidence supporting any one over the others. The important thing should be to explore and celebrate the vast possibilities. The mutual exclusivity of the stories in Sum are designed to allow this. The aim of this book is to swing a flashlight around the possibility space.\nSo do you believe any of the stories in Sum could be true?\nNone are meant to be serious proposals. The only serious proposal is the emergent message of the book: that there are many possibilities, and we should be discussing the size of that space instead of battling over the details of the pitifully few stories that our ancestors entertained.\nBut do you consider any of the stories in Sum more probable than any others?\nThey are all equally improbable.\nDo you believe in anything?\nI believe in possibility.\nIs that compatible with your scientific career?\nIt is the heart of a scientific career. Real science always operates by holding lots of interesting possibilities in mind and working to see which one is most supported by the data. Sometimes it's difficult or impossible to gather data that weighs in--and in those cases you simply hold the possibilities. You don't commit to a particular version of the story when there is no reason to privilege one over the others.\nBut as a scientist, do you think we may be able to someday answer these questions about life's meaning?\nYes, maybe someday. I am not a mysterian, who believes that science will never be able to shed light on the deep questions. But I certainly don't think we'll answer these in my brief twinkling of a 21st century lifetime. I've devoted my life so far to scientific pursuit, because if you want to figure out what's going on this world, there is no better way than to directly study the blueprints. And science over the past 400 years has been tremendously successful. We reached the moon and eradicated smallpox and built the Net and tripled life spans--and we've increasingly tapped into those mind-blowing blueprints, and they're deeper and more beautiful than anyone could have guessed. But in the end, when you reach the end of the pier of everything we know in science, you find that it has taken us only part way, and beyond that all you see is uncharted water. Beyond the end of the pier lies all the rest, all the mystery about our deeply strange existence. The equivalence of mass and energy, dark matter, multiple spatial dimensions, how to build consciousness from pieces and parts, what live and death are about, and so on. I have no doubt that we will continue to build the pier out, several new slats in each generation, but we have no guarantee how far we'll get. And that ocean is pretty big. There may be some domains that are beyond the tools of science--perhaps temporarily, perhaps always.\nDoes your book belong to the group of recent books by the \"new athiests\"?\nI don't really see it that way. The recent books by Dawkins, Dennett, Harris, Hitchens and others are brilliant and insightful, but they also feed a common misconception that scientists don't have the capacity to gambol around beyond the available data. The truth is that good scientists are among the most open-minded people. Science is nothing but careful thinking, and careful thinking encourages an appreciation of the complexity of the world, and this complexity encourages us to maintain several possibilities in our head at once. In a single lifetime, we may have no way to disambiguate these possibilities. And that's okay. A scientist may tend to favor one story over the others, but will always be careful to concede uncertainty and maintain a willingness to change the balance with new, incoming information. As an example, there are two very different interpretations about the reality underlying quantum physics. It is possible that there will be no way to ever know which is correct, or if instead some entirely new theory is correct. And that ambiguity is accepted as part of the enormity of the mysteries we face. Those are often the terms of the agreement we have with Mother Nature.\nAre you personally an atheist?\nIt depends what you mean by that. As a teenager I was an atheist. I realize now that my drive to talk with people about atheism was nothing more than a desire to get them to admit that something else could be possible other than the view that they absorbed from their parents or their community or their culture. It is not difficult to recognize that if you're born in Saudi Arabia, your nervous system is likely to absorb a belief in Islam; if you're born in India, you love Hinduism; most Americans soak up Christianity, and so on. Brains in different locations are exposed to different contexts, and they come to believe the local stories with equal passion and fervor. After childhood indoctrination people will vigorously defend their story against all the other stories, which seem to them fundamentally ridiculous. For many people, this connection to the numinous is an important part of their lives. But to be members of a larger community, I think it's an important exercise to stretch ourselves mentally to consider all the things we do not really know.\nDo you think some form of religion is possible?\nI think most scientists are, in some sense, religious. But not in the traditional way. As the philosophers Russell and Whitehead pointed out, spiritual impulses should be built upon the bedrock of what we already know. We know quite a bit about the size of the cosmos at this point, and quite a bit about the biological algorithms in our bodies, and the strange quantum behavior of atoms, and so on. So the idea is to use this knowledge as a springboard for any reasonable religion, instead of books written millennia ago by people who never had the opportunity to know about DNA, extra-solar planets, bacterial infection, information theory, electricity, the Big Bang and Big Crunch, or even other cultures or literatures or landscapes. Many traditional stories are beautiful, and they often crystallize hard-won wisdom. But in my opinion, the traditional religions are likely to be too small-thinking to possibly be correct. We know so much more now. So, yes, I think it's possible and even desirable to have a deep awe for the mysteries around us, and one can call this a form of religion.\nSo would you call yourself an agnostic?\nNo. As it is commonly used, I find the term agnostic weak. It is usually used to mean \"I'm not really certain whether the guy with the long beard on the clouds exists or does not exist.\" \u009d But there are more exciting directions to pursue--namely, seeking entirely new frameworks we haven't yet considered.\nDo you call yourself anything?\nI call myself a Possibilian.\nQ&A with David Home Writing --The Runaway Species --Brain and Behavior --The Brain --Incognito --SUM --Wednesday is Indigo Blue --Why the Net Matters --Other Writing --Scientific Publications Research --Time perception --Synesthesia --Neurolaw --Deep brain recording --Sensory Substitution --Antiphospholipid Syndrome --Other projects Blog Schedule Contact",

He remained there for whole six years from 2004 till 2010. Well, it was about collecting experience as a broadcast journalist to her before she could join major weather news network.\nLong awaited opportunity finally came to her when she was hired by The Weather Channel in 2010. She popularity skyrocketed after working as an on-camera meteorologist for the network\u2019s weekend weather shows like Weekend Now and PM Edition. In 2012, she began running the new show First Outlook. At the same time, she also worked as a host of the show titled Your Weather Today.\nShe received further milestone in her career by anchoring other popular shows at the channel. In 2012 she filled in as a co-anchor of the show called Morning Rush. She co-anchored the show for two years. She also served as a segment correspondent for the show Wake Up With Al. In 2014, she served co-anchor of the show called America\u2019s Morning Headquarters with Mike Bettes. Currently, she co-hosts Weekend Recharge with Paul Goodloe.\nThe popular media figure, Maria must be receiving hefty salary amount from her current work station, however, not any specific details of about her earning is unveiled. Nevertheless, few sources claim that she is receiving an annual salary amount of $150,000 and has collected colossal net worth amount of $800 thousand.",

        "raw_content": "Today EdwardsStudies.com has the opportunity to talk with Dr. Rhys Bezzant, the Dean of Missional Leadership and Lecturer in Christian Thought at Ridley College in Melbourne, Australia. He is also the author of Jonathan Edwards and the Church published by Oxford University Press (2013).\nDr. Bezzant, thank you so much for taking the time to talk with us. That\u2019s quite a title you have over there at Ridley: \u201cDean of Missional Leadership.\u201d Tell us about what you are up to at the College these days. What courses are you teaching?\nDon\u2019t be too impressed! Outside of regular classes, I have pastoral responsibility for a cohort of students who want to serve in a variety of ministry settings within Australia, often on the front line of outreach: campus workers, Bible translators, youth pastors, children\u2019s workers, church planters \u2026 I get the title to try to capture something of the breadth of the task! Apart from that, I teach Church History, Christian Worship, and some theology classes.\nAny future Edwards scholars being reared under your tutelage there, I would imagine?\nI talk a lot about Edwards in Australia, because not many other people do! Our teaching of church history has more often than not been oriented towards Britain, but new global impulses mean the church in Australia increasingly understands itself in relation to the US and Asia. I often say my goal is to make Edwards a household name, but only if the Lord Jesus is better known! It can be a tough gig getting students to think about further research in church history, because our churches need evangelists and pastors so desperately.\nGive us a good lead as to what we might learn about JE in your book \u201cJonathan Edwards and the Church.\u201d\nWhat I tried to do in that book is work through all the stages of Edwards\u2019s ministry, and show what he taught about the church at any moment. So it is a chronological analysis of his ecclesiology. Basically, he is a great Protestant, who sees the center of the church as the ministry of Word and sacraments, but adds to that definition the ways in which the church is central to the development of God\u2019s purposes in the world. His ecclesiology is dynamic and responsive, not just institutional or clerical. God\u2019s promises have to be held together with God\u2019s presence and purposes. The church is like a tree, deeply rooted in theology but also responsive to its environment.\nIf I\u2019m not mistaken, you have another book coming out about Edwards as a mentor. This sounds pretty cool. Are you working with the \u201clog college\u201d educational concept for ministers in this book, or do you mean something else by the term \u201cmentoring\u201d?\nYep, presently I am working on a book about Edwards\u2019s ministry of mentoring. I think he was a better pastor than is sometimes imagined, and his mentoring was exceptionally effective. Mentoring is such a synthetic skill-set, drawing on Scriptural themes, historical examples, cultural norms and pastoral insights, so this topic gives me ample scope to understand features in Edwards\u2019s pastoral labours often overlooked.\nAny applications from your studies on mentoring that you think can be applied to educational leadership in our context today, in the modern world?\nIt takes much longer than it used to shape a future minister. There is so much to unlearn first. And the costs of serving in a church are much more significant than they once were. Mentoring helps in the process of growing in character, skills, and confidence. Seminary professors aren\u2019t always the best people to do the mentoring, but at least we should start there. Intentional face to face experiences in education are more and more prized in a high-tech world.\nTell us a little bit about the Jonathan Edwards Center in Australia. What goes on over there?\nOur job is to promote the texts and teachings of Edwards, and the history of evangelicalism more generally. We hold occasional conferences, public lectures, and Masters units for the professional development of clergy. Ridley holds the biggest collection of Edwardseana in Australia.\nAre you in pretty frequent communication with the other JE Centers around the world? Let\u2019s see there\u2019s Yale, the one at TEDs, one in South Africa too\u2026\nYep, the network based around the mother ship at the Yale Divinity School has been fantastic for me, when there are so few local Edwards scholars. Ridley hosted an Edwards Congress last year with representatives from every continent, built on the fellowship of the JE Centers worldwide.\nWell, thank you so much for taking the time to stop by at EdwardsStudies.com. Before you go, are there any book or conference recommendations that you would like to pass along to our readers?\nWhy not take up the invitation this summer and do a one week reading course on Edwards at Yale?\nBy Matthew Everhardin Articles, Author Interviews May 31, 2016 May 31, 2016 817 WordsLeave a comment\nEdwards on Revival in a Small Town Church\nWhat does revival look like in the midst of a small town? Here is Edwards\u2019s description of Northampton\u2019s experience of the joyful effects of revival from his A Faithful Narrative:\nThis work of God, as it was carried on, and the number of true saints multiplied, soon made a glorious alteration in the town; so that in the spring and summer following, anno 1735, the town seemed to be full of the presence of God: it never was so full of love, nor so full of joy; and yet so full of distress, as it was then. There were remarkable tokens of God\u2019s presence in almost every house. It was a time of joy in families on the account of salvation\u2019s being brought unto them; parents rejoicing over their children as newborn, and husbands over their wives, and wives over their husbands. The goings of God were then seen in his sanctuary [Psalms 68:24], God\u2019s day was a delight, and his tabernacles were amiable [Psalms 84:1]. Our public assemblies were then beautiful; the congregation was alive in God\u2019s service, everyone earnestly intent on the public worship, every hearer eager to drink in the words of the minister as they came from his mouth; the assembly in general were, from time to time, in tears while the Word was preached; some weeping with sorrow and distress, others with joy and love, others with pity and concern for the souls of their neighbors.\nOur public praises were then greatly enlivened; God was then served in our psalmody, in some measure, in the beauty of holiness [Psalms 96:9]. It has been observable that there has been scarce any part of divine worship, wherein good men amongst us have had grace so drawn forth and their hearts so lifted up in the ways of God, as in singing his praises. Our congregation excelled all that ever I knew in the external part of the duty before, generally carrying regularly and well three parts of music, and the women a part by themselves. But now they were evidently wont to sing with unusual elevation of heart and voice, which made the duty pleasant indeed.\n(Works of Edwards, Vol. 4. Yale Edition, p. 151).\nWorks of Edwards Vol. 11 Typology: Images of Divine Things\nIn this episode of the Jonathan Edwards Studies Youtube channel, we have a brief review of the Eleventh Volume of the Works of JE. Specifically, we are here reflecting upon Edwards\u2019s understanding of \u201ctypes\u201d in Images of Divine Things.\nGrab one up on Amazon here.

Nichols\nWhen I first saw the title of the book Jonathan Edwards\u2019s Bible, I assumed it could only be about the Blank Bible, which has been an interest of mine for some time. As you may know, JE had a completely unique KJV stitched together into a larger blank notebook.\nThen, having read the subtitle a bit closer, \u201cThe Relationship of the Old and New Testaments,\u201d I realized that this was a book about Edwards\u2019s hermeneutics (interpretive theory of the Bible) and my interest in the book changed directions on a dime, without being diminished in any way. Yes, the book is about Jonathan Edwards\u2019s understanding of the interrelationship between the two testaments \u2013 a very necessary discussion to be held indeed among Edwards scholars.\nThankfully, Pickwick, an imprint of Wifp and Stock, was kind enough to provide a review copy to EdwardsStudies.com, so what follows is a brief review of Nichols\u2019s very helpful book on Edwards\u2019s view of Scripture.\nBefore going a step further into the contents of the book, I should make one more important clarification lest casual readers be confused. That clarification is that Stephen R.C. Nichols is to be distinguished from Stephen J. Nichols, another Jonathan Edwards scholar by the same name. Attentive readers will draw a connection between the latter writer and Ligonier Ministries and Reformation Bible College noting that he has several helpful introductory materials on Jonathan Edwards as well as other topics related to church history.\nBut that is not our Stephen Nichols here!\nNo, our author in this discussion is Stephen R.C. Nichols, an ordained minister in the Church of England, who studied under the highly reputed Oliver Crisp during his Ph.D. studies. Consequently, what we have here in Jonathan Edwards\u2019s Bible is his dissertation, repackaged for public consumption. I wouldn\u2019t necessarily say \u201cpopular\u201d consumption, though, since this work is still very technical in some ways, and never fully sheds its obvious \u201cdissertation\u201d structure and feel.\nHaving said all that, this work is important for several reasons. First, Edwards studies has long lacked in substantive treatments of Edwards\u2019s hermeneutical thought process. True enough, much work has been done on his philosophy, and Reformed theological bona fides, but not much has been done on the area of his understanding of how the two testaments relate to one another.\nLet\u2019s look at an overview of the book\u2019s trajectory. Nichols (as with any dissertation) gives us a general overview of where this book will attempt to go. In the opening salvo, Nichols tells us that he will divide his study into four significant segments. First, Nichols will help us to understand how Jonathan Edwards views Old Testament messianic prophecy. Second, he will look at Edwards unique view of typology. Third, how Edwards sees consistency in doctrine between the testaments, and fourth Nichols gives an example of Edwardsian interpretation with the narrow focus of soteriology (especially how OT believers are saved). Of course, he concludes with summary and general observations.\nLet\u2019s break that down a bit more.\nThis first chapter will largely focus on what Edwards was hoping to accomplish in his \u201cHarmony of the Old and New Testaments.\u201d Unfortunately, this work was never finished before Edwards\u2019s death, so Nichols will have to piece together Edwards\u2019s unfinished work on the interrelationship of the testaments here, conjecturing at times what this work would have looked like if Edwards had lived to complete it. To do this, Nichols focuses in on Edwards\u2019s understanding of how Messianic prophecy is fulfilled in the person of Jesus Christ. Although Edwards does not attack Anthony Collins specifically, clearly Collins\u2019s challenge to traditional Christianity is on Edwards\u2019s mind. Collins attempted to challenge Christianity\u2019s assertion that Jesus is the Messiah by showing how it appears (to him) that fulfilled Messianic prophecy is arbitrary, and selectively applied by the church.\nNichols says,\nIn this chapter I argue that he is in fact guided by Scripture in his exploration to a degree hitherto unrecognized. While a conceptual impasse thus exists between Collins and Edwards, Edwards\u2019s intention in the \u201cHarmony\u201d is not to offer proof from prophecy that Collins demanded, but to show the reasonableness and coherence of a Messianic reading of the ancient Hebrew prophecies (12).\nUltimately, Edwards would probably say (if I understand both him and Nichols correctly) that neither he nor anyone else would be able to offer incontrovertible proof of Jesus\u2019s Messianic identity through prophecy alone, even when accurately interpreted, since these things are spiritually discerned and require the regeneration of the Holy Spirit to understand properly. Nevertheless, the voluminous amount of Scripture that Jesus \u2013 and only Jesus \u2013 fulfilled in Edwards\u2019s view is insurmountably glorious and delightful to the believer.\nSecondly, Nichols will tackle the wonderfully intriguing topic of Edwards\u2019s view and usage of typology. Here, we are looking at the fact that Edwards saw a great many \u201ctypes\u201d or windows into the spiritual realm, not only in Scripture but in nature and history too. Of course, Nichols\u2019s goal here is to consider how this informed Edwards\u2019s overall understanding of Scripture. In short, it impacts his overall view considerably.\nUnderstanding what Edwards is doing with types is critical to reading him correctly in many places, not the least of which is his Images of Divine Things and his History of the Work of Redemption. In fact, Edwards would likely argue that a person who does not see types almost everywhere in the OT (tabernacle, sacrifices, kings, priests, oil, blood) will miss the centrality of Christ in the Hebrew Scriptures. He will not see how all of the OT Scriptures point towards the absolute centrality of the coming Messiah in the person of Jesus Christ.\nOne of the idiosyncrasies related to Edwards\u2019s view of types is that, because he finds them everywhere, he offers little consistent restraints in utilizing them. This has led to the charge that Edwards is somewhat wild and unrestrained in finding types in the Bible \u2013 and for that matter \u2013 everywhere else. For instance, as Nichols notes, Edwards ascribes at least three different typical meaning to stars (192). Edwards says that we should have a New Testament warrant to interpret types, but he does not pretend to abide by that rule himself at times. Ultimately, as Edwards himself probably would have us believe, the best restraint to interpreting types is Christian maturity (191).\nThirdly, Nichols attempts to look at what he calls, following Edwards, \u201cdoctrine and precept.\u201d This refers to the vast agreement between the two testaments on doctrinal and theological matters. In this section, Nichols dials in most tightly on Edwards\u2019s Reformed understanding of the covenants. Foundational to Edwards\u2019s entire paradigm are the covenants by which most Reformed theologians view redemption history. First, the covenant of redemption. This is the concept that God, in an inter-Trinitarian way, entered into an agreement between Father and Son to redeem the world through the Gospel. Second, the covenant of works. This was the promise of life and the threat of death given to Adam in the Garden, which ultimately, Adam failed to uphold, bringing sin and death into the world. Third, is the covenant of grace which contains the promises of God to fulfill the covenant of works in and through Christ the redeemer. Nichols argues essentially that Edwards is faithful to his Reformed/Calvinistic heritage in seeing the great covenants as being the map that brings all of the acts of God in redemptive history into focus.\nIn this way, Edwards stresses continuity as over against discontinuity between the two testaments, although he grants that there are a multiplicity of administrative differences.Summarily, then, Nichols says,\nSo, he inevitably emphasizes the substantial similarity between Old and New Testament expressions of the covenant of grace. As with prophecies and types, Edwards is willing to find parallels in doctrine and precept that go beyond familiar categories employed by his tradition (14).\nFinally, Nichols attempts to put all this together in a sort of \u201ctest case\u201d in the last major section, focusing on soteriology, or how individuals are saved, especially in the Old Testament. This particular doctrine serves as a yardstick by which Nichols can measure his own assessments in the previous three sections. Nichols argues that \u201cthe soteriological harmony Edwards observes between the Old and New Testaments is ultimately expressed in a common object of saving faith, namely Christ, as was common to Edwards\u2019s tradition\u201d (190). After reading this section, Nichols will have done much to show the reader how similarly believers both before and after Christ were saved. Old Testament believers were saved, not by works, but by being born again into a living hope in the coming Messiah. Likewise, New Testament believers are saved by the Christ who was born, died, and raised again in redemptive history. Neither are saved through obedience to the Covenant of Works; both are saved through the Covenant of Grace.\nThis work by Nichols is incredibly important since understanding Edwards\u2019s theology of Holy Scripture is critical to understanding his entire theological project. Nichols argues that Edwards\u2019s view of the interrelationship between testaments is vast and cannot be easily dismissed. His system seems to be coherent, even if from time to time he seems to be a bit too \u201cloose\u201d with his discovery of types almost everywhere. Edwards does offer a defensible position regarding the messianic fulfillment of prophecies in the person of Jesus Christ (against Anthony Collins who challenged this), although he admits that unbelieving minds will not be able to see these things adequately.\nSignificantly, \u201cEdwards offers an example of a \u2018grand unifying theory\u2019 of the Bible, a comprehensive interpretation capable of embracing the minutea of Old and New Testaments\u201d (195). In his conclusion, Nichols provides compelling reason to believe that we must do more work in studying Edwards\u2019s view of Scripture if we are to avoid misreading him in other areas such as his philosophy.\nIn the final analysis, Oliver Crisp is probably right to say of this book that \u201cIf we do not pay attention to this material (i.e. Edwards\u2019s views on Scripture) we cannot hope to understand Jonathan Edwards\u2026(Nichols) has shown how these things matter for some of the deep structures of the Sage of Northampton\u2019s thought. In this respect, his study helps to flesh out one more of the parts that comprise Jonathan Edwards\u201d (xi).\nBy Matthew Everhardin Articles, Book Reviews May 4, 2016 May 4, 2016 1,722 WordsLeave a comment\nDon Whitney \u2013 Finding God in Solitude: The Personal Piety of Jonathan Edwards and Its Influence on His Pastoral Ministry\nEditor\u2019s Note: Recently, EdwardsStudies.com had the opportunity to speak to Don Whitney about his most academic work, Finding God in Solitude: The Personal Piety of Jonathan Edwards and Its Influence on His Pastoral Ministry (Peter Lang, 2014). While professor Whitney is known mostly for his interest in the spiritual disciplines and his successful popular level works, this book is a complete and thorough academic treatment on Jonathan Edwards.\nI caught up with Don Whitney, professor at Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, recently by phone call. Dr. Whitney happened to be house hunting at the time, so thankfully, he graciously took my call between padlocks and for sale signs. Our chat was warm and inviting, just like the tone of his many helpful books. Among other things, I learned that Dr. Whitney has an enthusiastic admiration for quality ink pens, and has even written birthday letters on nice stationary to most of his church\u2019s congregants in an elegant handwriting which he relearned as an adult.\nWhat I did not know about Professor Whitney until somewhat recently is that he is a second-to-none Jonathan Edwards scholar. My first introduction to his writing came through his extraordinarily helpful book, Spiritual Disciplines for the Christian Life. I am sure that others who know him also encountered his writings the same way. Indeed, Whitney spent the better part of a few years combing through Jonathan Edwards writings, especially his personal writings in Volume 16 of the Yale Works.\nMy first clue that that Whitney had a fascination with Jonathan Edwards was when I heard his talk on the Northampton Divine at the Desiring God conference several years back. But I did not know he had studied Edwards formally. As we chatted on the phone, I could hear the tenor in his voice change when he described the experience of holding Sinners in the Hand of an Angry God in his own hands when he studied at the Beinecke Rare Book Library at Yale.\nWhitney\u2019s interest in JE began in earnest several years earlier when he was teaching a course on the lives of three great Christians. In that course, Whitney asked his students to read a biography of Edwards, Spurgeon, and Lloyd-Jones as well as a taste of their own writings. And, as is the course for many of us, his fascination with the New England Puritan kicked into another gear.\nHe was hooked on Edwards.\nFinding God in Solitude as you might guess, stays in Whitney\u2019s primary traffic lane: that is to say, it does not depart far from his special interest in the spiritual disciplines. In this work, Whitney looks at the overall piety of Jonathan Edwards. By the way, when using the word \u201cpiety,\u201d we should not think of religious show or artifice in any way. Sometimes the adjective \u201cpious\u201d has a bit of a negative overtone. On the contrary, we are talking about the very sincere desire of one\u2019s heart to be given over in obedience and sanctification to the Lord. Truly, Edwards modeled this desire for personal holiness, as the book catalogs.\nEdwards, of course, is well known for his devotional life: his prayers in the woods, his singing along to God by horseback, his Blank Bible, his Miscellanies, and voluminous notes on Scripture. All of that work was forged in the quiet of the study alone with God, largely uninterrupted by the distractions of the world (especially those we face in the modern world). But even among Colonial Puritans, Edwards\u2019s desire for solitude alone with God was remarkable. Whitney sees in all of this a great example that modern believers can imitate in some limited ways, although we ought not to expect to have Edwards\u2019s mental powers.\nIt is true that Jonathan Edwards\u2019s desire for solitude got him into trouble, as all who have read a biography of the Puritan well know (the \u201cBad Book Case\u201d and the Lord\u2019s Supper controversy come to mind). Edwards\u2019s preference for company with God alone probably prevented him from being a more sociable pastor in many ways. At the same time, as Whitney argues in his book, that same desire for the Lord\u2019s presence also resulted in some of the most important and profound theological treatises, books, and personal jottings that Colonial America would ever produce.\nThe book itself is a doctoral dissertation made somewhat more readable. Since it is an academic publication, this is likely to be one of Whitney\u2019s lesser read books. That\u2019s probably a shame. Not only that, but the price-tag at nearly $80 will be a hindrance to some. But for others who want a full-length treatment of how Edwards\u2019s personal spiritual life effected him as a pastor of the Northampton Church, the book may very well be worth the cost.\nI also asked Whitney if any of his more academic study on Jonathan Edwards would seep through into his popular writings. He assured me that it would, if only to a less intense degree than is given in this academic treatise. As a matter of fact, his newest work, Family Worship, quotes Edwards and length, and provided a new venue for Whitney to allow Edwards to continue to speak through the written press. Although not technically about Jonathan Edwards, Family Worship will have a tinge of Edwards\u2019s scent throughout.\nWhen I asked Whitney what originally attracted him to Jonathan Edwards, the SBTS professor said it was his rare and attractive combination of \u201clife and doctrine; heart and mind.\u201d It would be hard to disagree with that sentiment. True enough, that same emphasis which can be found in Jonathan Edwards also comes through in Don Whitney\u2019s works. Surely it is a great thing when passion for the Lord of Glory and deep and reflective theology come together.\nBy Matthew Everhardin Articles, Author Interviews, Book Reviews May 1, 2016 May 1, 2016 958 WordsLeave a comment",

On the 30th anniversary of the normalization of diplomatic relations between the People's Republic of China and Japan, the Palace Museum has selected some of the finest Japanese antiquities in its collection for display, in the hope that this would enhance mutual understanding of each nation's culture and art. The exhibition consists of 179 items in nine categories: books, paintings, porcelain, enamelware, metal objects, lacquer ware, embroidery, sculpture and furniture. Most of the objects are exquisite pieces dating from the Edo to the Meiji period (17th-19th century). Some were gifts exchanged by the imperial houses of the two countries; others were exotica acquired by the Qing royalty; still others were collected by the government or individuals after the 1949 liberation. The sheer variety of the collection demonstrates the close engagement of the two countries, politically and culturally, through the ages.",

        "raw_content": "daily broadsheet newspaper published in Salt Lake City\n(Deseret Management Corporation)\nJune 15, 1850 (168 years ago)\n40,719 Weekday (print)\n109,330 Sunday (print)\n98,382 Weekday (digital)\n98,150 Sunday (digital)\n(as of May 2014)[2]\nThe Deseret News (/\u02ccd\u025bz\u0259\u02c8r\u025bt/ ( listen))[3] is a newspaper published in Salt Lake City, Utah, United States. It is Utah's oldest continuously published daily newspaper and has the largest Sunday circulation in the state and the second largest daily circulation behind The Salt Lake Tribune. The News is owned by Deseret News Publishing Company, a subsidiary of Deseret Management Corporation, a holding company owned by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church). The paper's name is derived from the word for \"honeybee\" in the Book of Mormon.[citation needed]\nThe newspaper is printed by the Newspaper Agency Corporation, which it co-owns with The Salt Lake Tribune under a joint operating agreement. In 2006, combined circulation of the two papers was 151,422.[4]\nThe Deseret News also publishes a weekly compact-sized insert, the Church News, and the Mormon Times insert, both of which are included in the newspaper (in the Saturday and Thursday editions, respectively); the two inserts are also distributed as a separate publication outside Utah. The Church News includes news of the LDS Church and has been published since 1931,[5] while the Mormon Times is about \"the people, faith and culture associated with the church\".[6] Since 1974 the Deseret News has also published the Church Almanac, an annual edition carrying LDS Church facts and statistics edited by Church News staff.\nThe editorial tone of the Deseret News is usually described as moderate to conservative, and is often assumed to reflect the values of its owner, the LDS Church. For example, the newspaper does not accept advertising that violates church standards.\n1.1.1 The press\n1.1.2 First issue\n1.1.4 Utah War\n1.2.1 Changing ownership\n1.4.1 The Deseret News Publishing Company\n1.4.2 First Sunday edition\n1.4.3 1952: Newspaper Agency Corporation\n1.5.1 Sunday morning edition\n1.6.1 Internet presence\n2 Sunday national edition\n2.1 \"Faith\" section's features\n3 Mormon Times (TV series)\n4.1 Online edition\n4.2 News staff\n4.2.1 2010 restructuring\nThe press[edit]\nFront page of the first issue of the Deseret News, published June 15, 1850\nOn March 31, 1847, while at Winter Quarters, Nebraska, the LDS Church's Quorum of the Twelve Apostles authorized William W. Phelps to \"go east and procure a printing press\" to be taken to the future Mormon settlement in the Great Basin.[7]:3\u20134 Phelps left Winter Quarters sometime in May, and went to Boston by way of the former Mormon settlement of Nauvoo, Illinois. In Boston, with the help of William I. Appleby, the president of the Church's Eastern States Mission, and Church member Alexander Badlam, Phelps was able to procure a wrought iron Ramage hand-press, type, and other required equipment. He returned to Winter Quarters on November 12, 1847, with the press.[7]:11\u201312 Due partly to its size and weight, the press and equipment would not be taken to Salt Lake City until 1849. By that time many of the Mormon pioneers had left Winter Quarters and the press was moved across the Missouri River to another temporary Mormon settlement, Kanesville, Iowa.[7]:16 In April 1849 the press and other church property was loaded onto ox drawn wagons, and traveled with the Howard Egan Company along the Mormon Trail.[7]:17 The wagon company, with the press, arrived in the Salt Lake Valley August 7, 1849.[8]\nThe press was moved into a small adobe building (just east of the present site of the Hotel Utah) that also served as a coin mint for the settlers.[9] The press was at first used to print the necessary documents (such as laws, records, and forms) used in setting up the provisional State of Deseret.[7]:368-368\nFirst issue[edit]\nThe first issue of the Deseret News was published June 15, 1850, and was 8 pages long. This first issue included the paper's prospectus, written by the editor Willard Richards, along with news from the United States Congress, and a report on the San Francisco 1849 Christmas Eve fire; an event which had occurred six months prior.[10] Because it was meant to be the voice of the State of Deseret, it was called the Deseret News, and its motto was \"Truth and Liberty.\" It was at first a weekly Saturday publication, and published in \"pamphlet form\" in hopes that readers would have the papers bound into volumes.[11] Subscription rate was $2.50 for six months.\nA jobs press, usually called the Deseret News Press, was also set up so the News could print books, booklets, handbills, broadsides, etc., for paying customers and other publishers.[7]:74\nPaper[edit]\nFrom the beginning paper shortages were a problem for the News staff. Starting with the October 19, 1850 issue\u2014only four months after publication began\u2014the paper had to be changed to a bi-weekly publication.[7]:53 Even so, many times in the 1850s there were several periods when the News could not be published for lack of paper; one period lasted three months during the fall of 1851.[7]:54\u201355\nThomas Howard, a Mormon immigrant from England, and a paper-maker, approached Brigham Young about using some machinery\u2014originally meant for producing sugar\u2014to make their own paper; Young agreed to the plan. The publishers asked everyone to donate old paper and cloth to the venture. In the summer of 1854 the first issues of the News were published on \"homemade paper\" that was very thick, and grayish in color.<[7]:56\u201357\nEven with paper shortages, occasionally a News extra would be published, if there were important news or a sermon that could not wait for the regular publication date.[7]:73\nUtah War[edit]\nThe Utah Territorial Statehouse, home of the News during the Utah War\nAn early News printing press displayed in the statehouse basement\nDuring a turbulent time period, later known as the Utah War, the News presses and equipment were moved to the central and southern parts of the state. As armed forces of the United States camped just outside the state at Fort Bridger, George Q. Cannon was assigned to take some presses and equipment to Fillmore while Henry McEwan was to take the remainder to Parowan. On May 5, 1858 the first issue of the News with Fillmore City as the publication place appeared; issues would continue to be printed in both Fillmore and Parowan until September 1858[7]:89\u201390 While in Fillmore, the press was kept in the basement of the Utah Territorial Statehouse. That fall the presses were brought back to Salt Lake City and placed in the Council House, allowing the News to begin normal operations. The soldiers who had marched to Utah during the war would remain at the newly constructed Camp Floyd. Their need for a newspaper, one not published by the LDS Church, was satisfied with Kirk Anderson's Valley Tan, the area's second newspaper (and first competitor to the News); published November 6, 1858.[7]:98\nDuring the 1850s through 1860s numerous articles in the News were printed in the Deseret Alphabet.[7]:75\nThe coming of the Pony Express to Utah in 1860 would bring changes to the paper, allowing news from the East to arrive to the Territory much faster. Even so, the paper remained a weekly, with News extras being published with more frequency and temporary renamed The Pony Dispatch.[12]\nYet, paper problems still plagued the publishers; paper was very expensive to haul from California or the East, and attempts at making paper in the valley were still, for the most part, futile. In 1860 a paper-making machine had been purchased, and set-up in the Deseret Manufacturing Company sugar house factory, but lack of available materials meant a lack of paper. As a result, Brigham Young called George Goddard on a rag-gathering mission. Goddard traveled through the territory collecting rags that would then be turned into paper, and was able to supply enough to keep the News in production.[7]:124\u2013125 Other problems such as ice and drought on the stream, running out of Parley's Canyon, that ran the paper mill caused the paper to have short lapses in publication.[7]:125\nIn October 1861 the lines of the First Transcontinental Telegraph met in Salt Lake City, making the Pony Express obsolete, and bringing news to the Territory almost instantly. The News extras, now sometimes called telegraphic dispatches, were printed with even more frequency.\nThe Deseret Store, home of the Deseret News from 1851-1854 and 1862-1903\nIn March 1862 the News and its staff moved from the Council House to the Deseret Store,[7]:125 and in 1864 a steam-powered printing press arrived; it was placed in the basement the building.[7]:126 The set type was lowered from the offices in the building's upper floor to the basement, through holes in the each floor. Later an addition was constructed to the east of this building, and the presses were moved into that building.[7]:181\nOn October 8, 1865 the News launched its semi-weekly edition, this allowed news to get out more quickly and allowed for more advertisements. The weekly edition would continue and contained much of the same content as the semi-weekly, but editorials were different.[7]:141\nIn November 1867 George Q. Cannon became the editor, and on the 21st of that month, the News published its first daily edition, which was published in the evening, and as such was named The Deseret Evening News.[7]:146 Most of what was published in the daily edition, was also published in the weekly and semi-weekly, as the daily was meant for city readers and the weekly and semi-weekly for those living in the more rural areas of the territory.[7]:150 Until December 1898 all three editions\u2014the weekly, semi-weekly, and daily\u2014were published concurrently.[7]:171\nIn 1870 the Mormon Tribune, later named The Salt Lake Tribune, was first printed, adding a new newspaper rival to the Salt Lake area. Since its founding the Tribune and News have often been involved in \"newspaper battles,\" times when they could not agree on anything, even secular items. During these battles the News has often been called grandmother, granny, or The Mormon Hand Organ.[7]:196\nSince its first publication the News had been owned directly by the LDS Church, but as worries about property confiscation increased due to the Morrill Anti-Bigamy Act and Poland Act, and the paper's ownership was transferred to The Deseret News Company after it was incorporated on September 3, 1880.[7]:183 About this same time the News began looking for a location to build a new paper mill, as the Sugar House paper plant was not adequate. A new granite plant was constructed near the mouth of Big Cottonwood Canyon, 13 miles south of the paper's offices. The mill began producing paper in April 1883, and was known as the Cottonwood Paper Mill.[13] The News would sell the paper mill in 1892 to the Granite Paper Mills Company.[7]:199\u2013200 The mill caught fire and was destroyed April 1, 1893.\nChanging ownership[edit]\nOn October 1, 1892, The Deseret News Company leased the News along with all the company's printing, bookbinding, and merchandising to the Cannon family. The family was, at that time, operating the George Q. Cannon & Sons bookstore in downtown Salt Lake City. When the lease began the family formed the Deseret News Printing Company, which was to be the lessee, while The Deseret News Company would remain a legal entity as the lessor. Two children of former News editor George Q. Cannon would play prominent roles during this period, with John Q. Cannon as editor and Abraham H. Cannon as business manager.[7]:207\u2013208 The leasing had occurred due to financial troubles, and the Cannon family hoped to make the business profitable. This did not happen and the paper's assets and property were transferred back to The Deseret News Company on September 7, 1898; after almost six years under the ownership of the Cannon family. The family's Deseret News Publishing Company was dissolved after the lease was gone, and within a few months The Deseret News Company was also dissolved and ownership of the paper was returned directly to the LDS Church.[7]:225\u2013226\nWhen the Church regained direct control over the News, Horace G. Whitney was appointed business manager and Charles W. Penrose returned as editor. Immediately the paper's weekly edition, The Deseret Weekly, was discontinued; its last issue was published December 10, 1898.[7]:230\u2013231\n1900\u20131920s[edit]\nThe Deseret News and Union Pacific Building, home of the News from 1903 to 1926\nOn October 1, 1900 the George Q. Cannon & Sons bookstore was sold to the LDS Church, and renamed the Deseret News Bookstore. In 1920 the Deseret Sunday School Union Bookstore was also consolidated into the Deseret News Bookstore, and eventually the bookstore would become its own company, Deseret Book.\nIn 1903 the News moved out from its longtime home in the Deseret Store, kitty-corner to a newly constructed building. This was the first time the paper had a building constructed expressly for it. It was designed by Richard K.A. Kletting and built with stone from Mount Nebo in Central Utah. While the building was under-construction a fire destroyed the Oregon Short Line building in Salt Lake City, and the railroad wanted to rent space in the new building. As a result, the News constructed an annex to the west of the new building for more space.[7]:243\u2013244 This new home was at the site of the former Council House; presently the Beneficial Tower (Gateway Tower West) sits at this location.\nThe daily, called the Deseret Evening News was renamed the Deseret News on June 15, 1920; the paper's 70th anniversary. The semi-weekly was discontinued on June 22, 1922, leaving the daily as the only news publication. Two days later the News announced it had purchased the Utah Farmer, a weekly agricultural paper; which it would eventually sell.[7]:283\u2013284\nIn 1926 the News once again moved into a new building, this time on Richard's Street (just south of the present Deseret Book store in City Creek Center.) This same year the News began using teletype technology to receive news from the Associated Press.[7]:288\u2013289\nDuring the 1920s the paper's circulation nearly doubled, reaching almost 40,000.[7]:291\nOn November 20, 1920, the News began airing nightly wireless news flashes, called the Deseret News-International News Service bulletins. The paper had also formed The Deseret News Wireless Club, with members across the Western United States who would transcribe the radio bulletins and post them in their communities.[7]:269 In April 1922 the paper received a license to officially operate a radio station, with call letters KZN (later changed to KSL). The station's first regular broadcast aired on May 6, 1922 in the form of a talk by then-LDS Church president Heber J. Grant.[14] In 1924 the station was sold to John Cope and his father, F.W. Cope, who formed the Radio Service Corporation of Utah. The LDS Church would later purchase this corporation and go on to create KSL-TV.[15] The News, KSL Radio, and KSL Television continue to remain closely linked.\nThe Deseret News Publishing Company[edit]\nThe News had been under the direct ownership of the Church since 1898, when The Deseret News Company was dissolved. On December 29, 1931, the Deseret News Publishing Company was incorporated (not to be confused with the Deseret News Publishing Company formed in 1892 by the Cannon family to lease ownership of the paper, and dissolved when the lease was over). Its articles of incorporation, filed with the Salt Lake County Clerk, provided for 500 shares of stock, all retained by the Church (with the exception of the qualifying directors' shares).[16]\nFirst Sunday edition[edit]\nOn May 16, 1948 the News would deliver its first Sunday paper. The first Sunday edition contained 154 pages with a new farm, home, and garden section.[7]:339 The Sunday edition would continue into the 1950s, when an agreement with The Salt Lake Tribune would end it.\n1952: Newspaper Agency Corporation[edit]\nAfter World War II the Deseret News, The Salt Lake Tribune and the Salt Lake Telegram were all struggling financially, but no more than the Deseret News. In September 1952, the owners of the News (LDS Church) and Tribune (Thomas Kearns Family) entered into a joint operating agreement (JOA), where each published separate editorial material while sharing printing, advertising and circulation costs. This JOA was the brainchild of Tribune Publisher John F. Fitzpatrick who helped LDS President David O. McKay ensure the continuation of the Deseret News. As its architect, Fitzpatrick knew that this NAC arrangement would also benefit the Tribune. The News stopped Sunday publication; subscribers received a Sunday Tribune instead. The Deseret News also purchased the afternoon Salt Lake Telegram from the Tribune. The Telegram was discontinued, and into the mid-1960s, the paper's nameplate read: The Deseret News and Salt Lake Telegram. The 30-year agreement between the two papers was renewed in 1982, with some changes. The Newspaper Agency Corporation was renamed to MediaOne of Utah in 2007.\nDeseret News reporter Robert Mullins won a Pulitzer Prize in 1962 for local reporting \"for his resourceful coverage of a murder and kidnapping at Dead Horse Point State Park\".\nIn 1968 the News once again moved, this time into a new building on Regent Street.\nSunday morning edition[edit]\nThe joint operating agreement with the Tribune in 1952 had ended the paper's Sunday edition, but when the 30-year-old agreement was up for renewal, it was changed to allow the News to publish a Sunday morning edition and change its Saturday publication from an evening to morning paper.[17] The first Sunday morning edition of the News appeared January 16, 1983, and the paper has published a Sunday edition ever since.\nThe former location of the Deseret News on Regent Street. The newspaper's logotype was carved into the top of the building's fa\u00e7ade (since filled in by its new tenant) to give the building the appearance of the newspaper.\nThe newspaper moved into its newly constructed headquarters in on Regent Street downtown Salt Lake City in 1997.\nAs the twentieth century ended, the Deseret News found itself embroiled in a contentious and often public battle with The Salt Lake Tribune, centered around the terms of their joint operating agreement, the desire of the Deseret News to switch from afternoon to morning publication, and ownership changes at the Tribune. The battle was resolved with the 2000 sale of the Tribune[18] and with the News switching to morning publication and changing its name on June 9, 2003 to the Deseret Morning News.\nInternet presence[edit]\nOn January 26, 1995 the News launched the Crossroads Information Network, allowing subscribers to access the News digitally through their dial-up service; digital-only subscriptions were also created. Installation of the Crossroads software\u2014which was mailed on floppy disk to each subscriber beginning in February 1995\u2014was required on each user's computer. The network also allowed users to access the paper's complete text along with archives back to April 1988, the Church News and the LDS Church Almanac. The software allowed subscribers to communicate with each other through an e-mail-like system.[19][20] Eventually the Crossroads Information Network was shut down and its features were moved to DesNews.com, which itself was replaced with DeseretNews.com.\nThe paper's first website, DesNews.com, was launched on September 27, 1995. This allowed News content to be accessed through an internet website, rather than the software required by Crossroads. The website was meant for those outside the Salt Lake area, who had to pay long-distance calling charges when dialed into the Crossroads network.[21][22]\nOn April 13, 2008, Joseph A. Cannon announced in a front page editor's note that the name of the newspaper had been changed back to the Deseret News, although the News would continue to be published in the morning.[23]\nThe Triad Center in Downtown Salt Lake City, current home of the News\nIn 2010, the Deseret News moved its offices out of the Deseret News Building to the broadcast house in the Triad Center, so they could integrate with KSL's newsroom.[24]\nIn May 2011, the Deseret News launched an expanded business section with Jordan Burke, formerly an editor with Bloomberg, as the business editor.[25]\nIn October 2016, breaking an 80-year tradition of staying out of U.S. presidential politics, the Deseret News editorial board urged its readers not to vote for Donald Trump.[26]\nIn November 2016, Doug Wilks became the editor of the Deseret News.[citation needed]\nSunday national edition [edit]\nOnline publication featuring articles covering contemporary Mormon culture and current events\nDeseretNews.com/Faith/MormonTimes\n5,925,287 (August 2012[update])[27]\nThe Sunday Deseret News's national edition (whose \"Faith\" section was formerly known as \"Mormon Times\"), published in Salt Lake City, is a national and international weekly concentrating its reporting and feature articles on areas of interest to members of the LDS Church.[28][29] It is only available outside of the U.S. state of Utah. Material featured in the national edition of the Deseret News is available as an online subscription, and Mormon Times is the title of an affiliated weekly television program.[30]\nThe paper is not an official publication of the LDS Church, though it does include the weekly official Church News section that provides news of the LDS Church.[31] In August 2011, Joseph Walker became editor of the Deseret News's \"Faith\" section, including the Mormon-themed content branded as Mormon Times.[32]\nAccording to its publisher, the national edition's circulation as of July 8, 2012[update], was 107,000 subscribers from outside the state of Utah.[33][34] (In April 2013, the Deseret News's digital circulation was 56,755, the 22nd largest among newspapers' digital versions in the U.S.[35])\n\"Faith\" section's features[edit]\nIncluded in the website's sections are stories of the LDS Church's general authorities and news emanating from the Church Office Building.\nMormon Times brings the stories, photos, and updates of the more than 50,000 LDS missionaries all together in one place.\nThe education section contains current-event items drawn from across the Church Educational System (CES), including its seminary program, regular firesides, and the units of CES higher education, such as Brigham Young University (BYU).\nAs genealogy research is one of the hallmarks of Mormon culture, Mormon Times shares news and information relevant to family history enthusiasts.\nMormon Times works with the Foundation for Apologetic Information & Research to provide its readers with answers on a wide variety of topics in a Q&A section.\nMormon Times provides an entry point to a full, searchable edition of the Encyclopedia of Mormonism, courtesy of BYU's Harold B. Lee Library.\nThe paper also has a broader faith section that covers stories that have no relation to Mormonism, and just broadly touch on religious topics or specifically mention religions other than Mormonism.[36]\nMormon Times was created as a publication with its own independent circulation base and also as the Religion section of the Deseret News in January 2008.[37] In July 2011, both the Deseret News's religion section, still available separately, was renamed \"Faith,\" with the Mormon Times label henceforward applying only to its LDS-themed content.[38]\nMormon Times (TV series)[edit]\nFollowing the success of the Mormon Times in print and online, a TV series premiered on October 3, 2010. The TV series contains short segments with summaries of popular stories from the print version, along with interviews, and is hosted by Michelle King.[39] The show is aired Sunday mornings, and is part of KSL-TV's Legacy Sundays programing block, which also airs the Mormon Tabernacle Choir's Music and the Spoken Word and History of the Saints.[40]\nThe News is currently published daily, in the morning.\nOnline edition[edit]\nThe online edition of the Deseret News allows civil comments from those who first register with their name, email plus a screen name and password. Comments are limited to 200 words per comment, and four comments per story. Staff also moderates to prevent publication of comments that are deemed vulgar, uncivil, or personally attacking.[41]\nNews staff[edit]\nThe newspaper's editors included the following:\n1850\u20131854: Willard Richards[42]\n1854\u20131859: Albert Carrington[42]\n1859\u20131863: Elias Smith[42]\n1867\u20131873: George Q.

Edwards [47]\n2016\u2013present: Doug Wilks[48]\nAmong those who have served as publisher of the Deseret News were Wendell J. Ashton (1978\u201385),[49] William James Mortimer (1985-2000),[46] Jim Wall,[50] and Chris Lee.[47]\nIn the 1972-1986 period when Smart was the editor, Gordon B. Hinckley and Thomas S. Monson were among the presidents of the Deseret News Publishing Company.[51]\n2010 restructuring[edit]\nSummer 2010 saw multiple changes both in leadership and structure at the Deseret News. A new Opinion Editor, Paul S. Edwards, was appointed. Edwards had previously been provost at Southern Virginia University and earlier a political science professor at Brigham Young University (BYU). Editor Joe Cannon and publisher Jim Wall stepped down.\nDuring the summer of 2010 it was announced that the Deseret News for the first time ever would have a president and CEO; Clark Gilbert was appointed to this position. He was already CEO of Deseret Digital Media.[52]\nGilbert announced the future of Deseret News was leaner, and more online. In August 2010 he announced the layoffs of 85 staffers, 57 full-time and 28 part-time. It resulted in a reduction of 43% of the paper's entire staff.[24][53]\nOn November 12, 2010, Ann Cannon, a columnist who had been with the Deseret News for seven years but had been let go[citation needed], first appeared as a columnist in The Salt Lake Tribune.[54]\nThe Deseret News also created an editorial advisory board to work with Gilbert and Edwards; it consisted of people with a broad variety of backgrounds:\nJoseph Cannon, who had up until that time been the Deseret News editor.\nPamela Atkinson, a Presbyterian philanthropist based in Salt Lake City\nClayton M. Christensen, a professor of Business Administration at Harvard Business School.\nSheri L. Dew, LDS author and president/CEO of Deseret Book, in Salt Lake City, Utah.\nRobert P. George, past chairman of the National Organization For Marriage, McCormick Professor of Jurisprudence at Princeton University and prominent conservative Christian thinker.[55]\nMatthew S. Holland, president of Utah Valley University (UVU) in Orem, Utah; son of Jeffrey R. Holland, LDS apostle.\nFiroz \"King\" Hussein, CEO of Span Construction and Engineering a native of India who did graduate studies at BYU, is a convert to the LDS Church and currently serves as an LDS bishop in Monterey, California\nJane Clayson Johnson, Emmy-winning journalist and author.\nJeffrey Max Jones, former senator and cabinet minister in Mexico\nMary McConnell, curriculum consultant at Juan Diego Catholic High School in Draper, Utah, former Rhodes scholar and speech-writer for Caspar Weinberger\nMichael W.

Stokes, former deputy director of the Illinois Department of Health, an African American from Chicago, graduate of DePaul University and long-time member of the LDS Church and Utah resident since 2006, active with the Utah Chapter of the African-American Genealogical and Historical Society[56]\nAnother part of the restructuring of the Deseret News involved the creation of Deseret Connect, a group of about 1000 screened contributors who provide content at little or no charge to the paper.[57]\nList of newspapers in Utah\n^ \"Contact us\".

It was later adapted into two anime series and five role-playing video games. Its title is a combination of words from two languages: the Italian word \"Popolo (people)\" and the French \"croix (crossing)\", which together mean \"crossing of people\". The general theme of the series is love and compassion, that the race to which one belongs isn't important and the importance of friendship.[citation needed] Five PoPoLoCRoIS games, the original PlayStation release along with its four sequels, were previously released only in Japan. The PSP release is the first PoPoLoCRoIS game to be released in the USA and Europe. In 2015, a crossover with the Story of Seasons series of games was released, which will also be brought to the USA by XSeed.[citation needed]\nWhile random and turn-based, battles take on a form very similar to console strategy RPGs (such as Final Fantasy Tactics). When a character's turn begins, they can move along a small grid and attack enemies from four cardinal directions, each with their own advantages and disadvantages. For example, an attack to the enemy's back will deal more damage, as will skipping a turn to focus on the next turn.[citation needed]\nThe main character is the prince of the Popolocrois kingdom, Pietro. The first game, PoPoLoCRoIS Monogatari, starts at the night of Pietro's 10th birthday, when he learns that his mother, who he thought was long dead, was found in a coma. Pietro sets out into a journey along with the apprentice forest witch Narcia to save his mother's soul from the underworld.\nPoPoLoCRoIS Monogatari is part of Sony first-party \"Three Major RPGs\" with Wild Arms, Popolocrois, and Arc The Lad in Japan.\nNovember 1978 - Popolocrois is first published in the women's magazine Pafu \u3071\u3075 (pafu?)\nOctober 1984 - The cartoon is published Asahi Shimbun Student Newspaper, which is considered the official start of the PoPoLoCrois series.\n1994 - The Popolocrois animated theatrical pilot is released.\nJuly 12, 1996 - Sony Computer Entertainment (SCE) releases the Popolocrois Story role-playing video game for the Sony PlayStation.\nOctober 4, 1998 - March 28, 1999 - The Popolocrois anime television series is broadcast on TV Tokyo.\nNovember 26, 1998 - SCE releases Poporogue, the second PoPoLoCrois game, on PlayStation.\nJanuary 27, 2000 - SCE releases Popolocrois Story II on PlayStation.\nJune 20, 2002 - SCE releases Popolocrois: Adventure of Beginnings the for PlayStation 2.\nOctober 5, 2003 to March 28, 2004, TV Tokyo broadcasts a second PoPoLoCrois anime series.\nMarch 18, 2004 - SCE releases'Popolocrois: Adventure of the Law of the Moon on PlayStation 2.\nFebruary 10, 2005 - SCE releases PoPoLoCrois for the PlayStation Portable, which contains heavily edited versions of the stories from PopoloCrois Story I andII, as well as some new material.\nMay 19, 2005 - the PSP PoPoLoCrois becomes the first game of the series to be released outside of Japan, launching first in Hong Kong and Taiwan. It was released later that year in North America (December 6, 2005) through Agetec. Prince Pietro's version is later released in Europe June 16, 2006 through Ignition Entertainment, and in North America and Australia June 30, 2006.\nDecember 10, 2013 - Yohsuke Tamori & Atsuko Fukushima team up to create spin-offs Popolocrois novel called Maya Mensis Aureos that was published by Kaiseisha; it is ended as a trilogy.\nFebruary 18, 2015 - SCE releases the Popolocrois Prequel novel PoPoLoCHRONICLE. It takes place before the events of the first game.\nJune 18, 2015 - SCE and Marvelous develop the crossover title Popolocrois Bokujou Monogatari for the Nintendo 3DS. It was released in North America (March 1, 2016) and Europe by XSEEDS and Marvelous.\nWhile random and turn-based, battles take on a form very similar to console strategy RPGs (such as Final Fantasy Tactics). When a character's turn begins, they can move along a small grid and attack enemies from four cardinal directions, each with their own advantages and disadvantages. For example, an attack to the enemy's back will deal more damage, as will skipping a turn to focus on the next turn.\nThe gameplay has been criticised for having semi-tedious load times (especially on the Sony PSP). On the Sony PSP, the sprites may lag for a while in some areas. It has also been criticised for having very frequent random encounters which, coupled with the battle system, can really slow down a simple walk from one town to another.\nPietro is very caring and values friendship, and he gets more courageous as the game progresses. Pietro has a crush on Narcia ever since they had their first adventure together. Pietro finds out that he is part dragon because his mother Queen Sania is a dragon.\nNarcia is an apprentice forest witch who helps Pietro in the game. Narcia wears a pink dress with a two pointed hat for a specific purpose; when she is 15 years old, she begins to wear a semi purple and pink dress.\nKai is Narcia's shapeshifting alter ego. Guilda gave her the treasure of the forest witches: the Golden Key which allowed her to become a human so she wouldn't turn into bubbles if she came in contact with seawater; but if anyone discovered this secret, she would fall into a coma. At first she tricks Pietro and the White Knight into thinking that she's a friend of Narcia's, but she reveals her secret to Pietro by accident and later Kimendoji.\nWhite Knight is first met by Pietro and Narcia at the same time Naguro is met. He joins the party and stays until the very end of book one, Ice Demon. He then rejoins the party when Pietro, Don and Gon go the mine in Pasela to find a dragon in there, but leaves after a baby dragon imprints on him. He stays behind in the land of dragons to help the baby get used to living there.\nGamiGami Devil is a slightly unbalanced dwarf who, though unable to read or write above the level of a child, is a technical genius who creates robots and vast cities.\nIce Demon is the ruler of North Land and master of ice magic. In the past, he attacked Popolocrois, but was stopped and defeated by a dragon.\nThere are two more games continuing the tales of Pietro and company. The second game, PoPoRoGue (portmanteau of PoPoLoCRoIS + Epilogue), features Pietro as a 12-year-old boy that went off to save his father from the dream world that he was forced into. The third, PoPoLoCRoIS Monogatari II, features Pietro and Narcia as 15-year-olds with different costumes, who went off the defeat the mysterious force that was going to destroy the world. PoPoLoCRoIS Monogatari II was the most famous game of the series, due to the darkened story, new party members, and many other features. The PSP release is a reproduction of PoPoLoCRoIS Monogatari (included into Book 1) and PoPoLoCRoIS Monogatari II (included into Book 3), with Book 2 being a brand-new scenario.\nApe Escape Racing[edit]\nApe Escape Racing\nSCEI, Epics (G-Artists)\nApe Escape Racing (\u30b5\u30eb\u30b2\u30c3\u30c1\u30e5 \u30d4\u30dd\u30b5\u30eb\u30ec\u30fc\u30b5\u30fc Saru Get You: Pipo Saru Racer) is a racing game featuring the monkeys from the Ape Escape series. It was released in Japan on December 7, 2006. 11 months after its first release, the game was added into the 'PSP The Best' series'.[citation needed] In Ape Escape Racing the player 'builds' their monkey into a racing machine, by giving him an engine and tires. The game features 47 'vehicles', each in two forms: one specialized in drifting, one specialized in acceleration. Other vehicles are unlocked as the player proceeds through the ranks. The main game consists four racing tracks in a grand prix. Each improved race time will fill a monkey bar at the top of the grand prix menu. Once this bar is filled, a VS mode is unlocked where the tracks will be played again but an evil, much faster monkey is involved in the races. If the player achieves a top overall position, they will 'rank up' and unlock another four tracks and so on. Levels that have been unlocked can be replayed in normal race form or in a time trial form. Each of the tracks are set in the same arena, but the path changes to a harder one as more are unlocked. The tracks are set in the following order: The Beach, The City, The Graveyard and The Jungle. The game uses the PlayStation Portable's wireless capabilities for game sharing and ad-hoc wireless LAN multiplayer races.[citation needed]\nNanashi no Game[edit]\nSquare Enix[1]\nNobuhiko Tenkawa\nSeiichiro Tsuno\nYosuke Tomita\nArata Sakai\nJP: July 3, 2008\nNanashi no Game (\u30ca\u30ca\u30b7 \u30ce \u30b2\u30a8\u30e0, Nanashi no Geemu, lit. \"Nameless Game\" or \"The Game with No Name\") is a first-person survival horror video game developed by Epics and published by Square Enix for the Nintendo DS. The game follows a university student who becomes cursed by the titular role-playing game, which causes people to die in seven days upon starting. It was released on July 3, 2008, in Japan.[2][3] A sequel, titled Nanashi no Game: Me, was later released on August 27, 2009 in Japan.\nMost of the game takes place in the real world, where the player navigates real-time 3D environments using the DS's D-Pad and Touch Screen. While exploring, the player must solve puzzles and reach locations. The player can switch to the TS Menu at any time, where they can play the cursed game, read e-mail messages, and load a previous save file. In many cases, an e-mail message or update to the cursed game will interrupt the player's exploration. In the cursed game, which only uses the top DS screen, the player controls a 2D 8-bit RPG that provides clues to the current situations and can, in some cases, advance the story.[4] The player encounters Regrets (\u30eb\u30b0\u30ec, Rugure), zombie-like spirits that roam the area in exploration mode and end the game upon touching the player.[5][6][5]\nAs of September 30, 2008, Nanashi no Game has sold 60,000 copies in Japan.[7][8][9][10][11][12] Famitsu rated the game 30/40.[13]\nNanash no Game: Me\nJP: August 27, 2009[14]\nEpics developed a sequel, Nanashi no Game: Me (\u30ca\u30ca\u30b7 \u30ce \u30b2\u30a8\u30e0 \u76ee, Nanashi no Geemu Me, lit. \"Nameless Game: Eye\"), a survival horror video game for the Nintendo DS. It was published by Square Enix, and released on August 27, 2009 in Japan.[14] The story follows an anthropology student from Nanto University, as he discovers two cursed games, an RPG and a platformer. The game's title refers to the protagonist's left eye, represented by the left screen of the DS when held sideways, which allows the player to see things left (and hidden) by the curse.[15][16][17][18] It sold 15,000 copies on the week of its release.[19]\nMuch like in the original, Nanashi no Game: Me involves two separate modes of play. Most of the game takes place in the real world, where the player navigates real-time 3D environments using the DS's D-Pad and Touch Screen. While exploring, the player must solve puzzles and reach locations. The player can switch to the TS Menu at any time, where they can play the cursed game, read e-mail messages, and load a previous save file. In many cases, an e-mail message or update to the cursed game will interrupt the player's exploration. In the cursed game, which only uses the top DS screen, the player controls a 2D 8-bit RPG that provides clues to the current situations and can, in some cases, advance the story.[4] In Nanashi no Game: Me, the player can now choose the locations they want to explore out of the two available for each day (for three days only). Each destination provides different experiences, including the Regrets the player will encounter.[15]\nTwo spin-off DSiWare titles, named Noroi no Game: Chi (\u30ce\u30ed\u30a4 \u30ce \u30b2\u30a8\u30e0 \u8840, Noroi no G\u0113mu Chi, lit. \"Cursed Game: Blood\") and Noroi no Game: Oku (\u30ce\u30ed\u30a4 \u30ce \u30b2\u30a8\u30e0 \u7344, Noroi no G\u0113mu Oku, lit. \"Cursed Game: Prison\") respectively, have also been released on 9 September 2009.[citation needed] Another sequel, Nanashi no Appli (\u30ca\u30ca\u30b7 \u30ce \u6216\u30d7\u30ea, Nanashi no Apuri, lit. \"Nameless App\"), was released on 26 January 2012 for iOS, and in February 2012 for Android.[20][21]\n^ a b \"Nanashi no Game - Nintendo DS\".

It was one of the three main east-west streets of the original Greek city of Neapolis. To the east along Spaccanapoli, one reaches in a few blocks the Piazza of Gesu Nuovo and Santa Chiara.\nThe Church of San Domenico Maggiore incorporates a smaller, original church built on this site in the 10th century, San Michele Arcangelo a Morfisa.\nCharles II of Naples began the rebuilding that produced the gothic structure that comprises the present church. The work was done between 1283 and 1324, but the church has undergone modifications over the centuries, including one in 1670 that recast some of the decoration in a Baroque style. In the 19th century, however, the church was restored to its original Gothic design.\nThe monastery annexed to the church has been the home of prominent names in the history of religion and philosophy. It was the original seat of the University of Naples, where Thomas Aquinas, a former member of the Dominican community there, returned to teach theology in 1272. Sacristan Domenic of Caserta claimed to have seen Aquinas levitating in prayer with tears before an icon of the crucified Christ in the Chapel of Saint Nicholas after Matins on December 6, 1273. Domenic reported that Christ said to Thomas, \"You have written well of me, Thomas. What reward would you have for your labor?\" and Thomas responded, \"Nothing but you Lord.\" [1]\nThe philosopher friar and heretic, Giordano Bruno, also lived here at some point.\nIn the center of the square is an obelisk\u2014 one of three \"plague columns\" in Naples\u2014 topped by a statue of Saint Dominic, founder of the Dominican Order, erected after the plague of 1656. The original designer of the spire was the Neapolitan architect Cosimo Fanzago. Construction on the spire was started after the plague of 1656 and was finally finished in 1737 under Charles III, the first Bourbon monarch of Naples.\nArtistically, the most notable feature are the frescoes by Pietro Cavallini in the Brancaccio Chapel (1309), depicting Stories of St. John the Evangelist, Crucifixion, Stories of Magdalene and the Apostles Peter, Paul and Andrew.\nThe sacristy houses a series of 45 sepulchres of members of the royal Aragonese family, including that of King Ferdinand I. The remains of the Blessed Raymond of Capua, a former Master General of the Dominican Order, also rest there.\nCoffins of members of the royal Aragonese family (covered in red, upper level).\nFerdinand I of Naples\nIsabella of Aragon, Duchess of Milan\nFerdinand II of Naples\nBishop Richard Luke Concanen. the first Catholic Bishop of New York City\nSacred Relics Chamber[edit]\nThe \"Sacred Relics Chamber\", best known as \u201cTreasure Chamber\u201d, was built in 1690 with the purpose of preserving the hearts of Charles II of Naples, Alfonso V of Aragon (Alfonso I of Naples), and Ferdinand II of Naples, as well as a series of significant objects belonging to Dominicans, all precious historical evidence lost during French occupation in the early 1800s. The chamber remained closed to the public until 2000, when it was re-opened, regaining a role as a cultural attraction in the historic centre of Naples.\nIt is accessible through the wooden door engraved toward the second part of the 16th century, and attributed to Cosimo Fanzago. It is furnished with monumental 18th century walnut wardrobes showing a collection divided in four parts: \u201cThe Arches\u201d, \u201cThe Processions\u201d, \u201cthe Treasure\u201d and the\u201d Sacred ornaments\u201d, a selection of precious clothes of Aragonese monarchs, reliquary busts, sacred vestments, and relics of Dominicans. The decorations of the wardrobes doors, realized by Francesco Antonio Picchiatti, embrace the same style as the terracotta tiled floor by Donato and Giuseppe Massa, who have also worked for the Santa Chiara cloister in Naples.\nAragonese Arches[edit]\nThe first part of the collection includes clothing and accessories of kings and noblemen removed by the arches shown in the adjacent sacristy. Toward the end of the 1980s, the clothes, which date back to a period between the 15th and 16th centuries, were taken away from the mummies in the coffins, restored, and exhibited. The culture of the 15th century is recreated by means of the damask dresses, veils and silk pillows, daggers and armor of the Aragonese family and of other members of their court.\nThe main relics are: the ivory pillow of Ferdinand I of Naples, called Ferrante (15th century), in silk and silver, on which a black gauntlet and the well-wishing family motto \u201cjuvat\u201d are embroidered; the goatskin pillow and part of the sheath and dagger of Ferdinand II of Naples, called Ferrandino (15th century), with leather tassels and woolen padding. On this one, still today, the signs of the fire that burnt up the church in 1506 are visible; the ochre damask dress of Isabella Sforza of Aragon, with squared neckline and long silk ribbons to keep together the sleeves with the bodice. The skirt is 103 cm long and 480 cm large, with a grapevine decoration and a pleat that used to be stuffed with wool, so as to have a shapely waistline and match the fifteenth-century ideal of feminine beauty; the ivory satin suit of Peter of Aragon, with velvet ribbons and a gold velvet hat; the brown velvet suit attributed to Francesco Ferdinando D\u2019Avalos (husband of the 16th century poet Vittoria Colonna); the ivory dress in taffeta and grosgrain of Maria of Aragon and the flax turban found on her head; different vestments and shoes of noble children who mainly died from the plague.\nThe Processions[edit]\nThe second part, situated on the north-west wall, is characterized by some Dominican saints busts in papier-m\u00e2ch\u00e9, wooden and silver lamina, which were carried in triumph during the religious processions in the 18th and 19th centuries. Here we can admire the bust of Saint Vincent Ferrer, patron of the builders, the bust of Saint George, and that of Peter Martyr (Peter of Verona), represented with an axe on his head, recalling the way he was killed, according to the hagiographies, after his conversion to Christianity.\nIn the central wardrobes there are two refined flax drapes embroidered in silk and gold, part of a collection dedicated to the \u201chistory and virtues\u201d of Saint Thomas Aquinas, donated to the Dominicans by his descendant Maria d\u2019Aquino in 1799. The first drape portrays a young girl caressing an unicorn, a mythic creature which, according to the legend, could only be touched by a virgin, thus representing chastity. The other, on the opposite wall, \u201cThe Sun Chariot\u201d, represents an interesting subject mixing religious and mythological themes. The drapes were realized by Neapolitan embroiderers between 1669 and 1685, and were used, in the past, as wall decorations during some religious holy days connected with St. Thomas. The collection also includes other drapes, such as \u201cBenevolence\u201d, \u201cGod\u2019s grace\u201d, \u201cHumility\u201d and \u201cPeace hugging Justice\u201d, all characterized by rich baroque flower compositions. The artists responsible for these works used a refined technique called \u201cPUNTO PITTURA\u201d, to get a particular light and shade effect. On the north-east wall, others papier-m\u00e2ch\u00e9 busts include: Saint Agnes of Rome, patron of girlfriends and virgins; St. Raymond of Pe\u00f1yafort , the first doctor in canonical law; Saint Louis Bertrand, represented with a snake coming out from the goblet he holds in his hand, remembering the episode when he almost died from poison.\nThe Treasure[edit]\nThe third section conserves the most precious liturgical vestments owned by Dominican friars, an awesome collection of copes and chasubles in multicolour silks, silver and gold linens, \u2018700 century[clarification needed] altar frontals, mother-of-pearl ornaments, reliquary, monstrances and candelabra. The most precious pieces of the collection are: the fantastic brocaded lampas cope by French manufacturers from 18th century, embroidered with silver thread and gold finishing; the peach tunic (end of 18th century), coming from the silk factories in San Leucio; a wonderful altar frontal (18th century) in brocade fabric embroidered with silver thread and multicolour silks on ivory satin, representing the Virgin Mary and Saint Dominic and \u201cThe Mysteries of the Rosary\u201d; the reliquary finger of St Biagio, thaumaturge (wonderworker) of throat diseases.\nSacred Ornaments[edit]\nThe fourth and last section shows the objects which adorned the sacred places of the basilica in the past. Pieces of great visual suggestion are the two busts from the 18th century: one of Pope Pius V, promoter of the famous battle of Lepanto in 1571, and one of St. Dominic, founder of the Dominican order, represented according with the typical iconography: a star on his head, a dog running with a torch in his mouth, and a church.\nAmong the other items exhibited in this section: a rock crystal and golden bronze crucifix, fabulous wooden and silver lamina vases with mother-of-pearl flowers, and precious nineteenth-century candelabra in silver copper. All these relics prove the European leadership which Naples had gained in craftsmanship and handmade fashion sectors since Middle Ages. During the 16th and 17th centuries, silk was one of the most considerable entries in the kingdom\u2019s balance sheet, and the available data demonstrate that the silk production and trade activities were still significant for the economy of the Kingdom of the two Sicilies during the 18th and 19th centuries. Therefore, even in the \u201ctextile art\u201d sector, Naples conserved its status of \u201cRefined City\u201d for a long time, and the Treasure Chamber proves this record beyond doubt.\nPiazza di San Domenico Maggiore[edit]\nThe plaza is ringed by palaces from prominent families, including the Palazzo di Sangro di Casacalenda, Naples.\nA.V., Antichi telai.

The first film he saw, The King and I, and first theatre visit, to see Christopher Plummer in Richard III at Stratford, both made a great impression. He was educated at Manchester Grammar School, where he met the younger Nicholas Hytner. They performed together in the school orchestra (Hytner played flute and Pimlott the oboe) and in school plays: Pimlott was an admired Gertrude opposite TV historian Michael Wood's Hamlet. Reading English at Sidney Sussex College, Cambridge, Pimlott also acted in university productions with Hytner and Declan Donnellan.\nOpera and theatre work[edit]\nPimlott began his career with the English National Opera, where he was Staff Director from 1976 to 1978. He moved to Opera North from 1978 to 1980, directing productions of Puccini's La boh\u00e8me and Tosca, Verdi's Nabucco and Massenet's Werther, and the British premi\u00e8re of Alexander Borodin's Prince Igor, which he translated with David Lloyd-Jones. He then worked with Scottish Opera, directing Don Giovanni, and Opera Australia, and then worked in regional opera houses in Manchester, Leeds and Sheffield.\nWhile at the Crucible Theatre in Sheffield, he directed productions of Twelfth Night and The Winter's Tale. In 1988, he directed a production of the York Mystery Plays which was staged in the city's Museum Gardens, against the backdrop of the ruined St Mary's Abbey, and which featured the Indian actor Victor Banerjee as Jesus. Also in 1988, he directed the British premi\u00e8re of Botho Strauss's Der Park.\nPimlott developed a wide range of theatrical work, which included avant garde, Shakespeare and popular musicals, such as the revival of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat with Jason Donovan and then Phillip Schofield at the Palladium in 1991 and on Broadway in 1993, Doctor Dolittle at the Hammersmith Apollo in 1998, and Bombay Dreams and at the Apollo Victoria in 2002 and in New York in 2004. At the National Theatre, he worked on the British premi\u00e8re of Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine's Sunday in the Park with George in 1990, and a new translation of Moli\u00e8re's The Miser in 1991.\nPimlott directed many works with the Royal Shakespeare Company, working with RSC artistic director Adrian Noble, beginning with Julius Caesar in 1991, with Robert Stephens as the lead. He later produced Richard III in 1995, with David Troughton as the lead actor; Richard II in 2000 with Samuel West as the title character and David Troughton as Bolingbroke; and Hamlet at Stratford in 2001 with West again as the lead. For the RSC, he also produced T. S. Eliot's Murder in the Cathedral in 1993, Tennessee Williams' Camino Real at Stratford in 1997, with Leslie Phillips, Peter Egan and Susannah York, and staged Antony and Cleopatra at Stratford in 1999, with Alan Bates and Frances de la Tour (although an opening scene that showed oral sex was dropped when the production moved to London). He was Company Director at the RSC in Stratford in 1996 and an Associate Director of the RSC from 1996 to 2002. During his time with the RSC he also had Jason Carr (the composer of incidental music to ten of his RSC plays) commissioned to write a musical adaption of Charles Kingsley's novel The Water Babies; in the end the RSC never produced it but Pimlott later had it mounted at Chichester where he was Artistic Director, alongside Martin Duncan and Ruth Mackenzie, from 2003 to 2005. Pimlott also directed world premi\u00e8res of Phyllis Nagy's Butterfly Kiss, The Strip and Neverland.\nHis restaging of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat was revived in 2007 at London's Adelphi Theatre with Lee Mead in the title role. Before the show opened, booking was so brisk that the musical's originally planned six-month run was doubled. \"I suppose he\u2019s a dreamer. Even when things are going really badly he never gives up hope\", Pimlott wrote of Joseph in the 1991 production's programme. \"We all dream a lot, some are lucky, some are not...\"\nA lifelong Gilbert and Sullivan afficiando, he was the director of the short-lived Savoy Theatre Opera project in 2004, founded by Raymond Gubbay. He took to the stage for the D'Oyly Carte Opera Company in their last season at the Strand, playing Sir Joseph Porter in H.M.S. Pinafore. With Martin Duncan and Ruth Mackenzie, he was appointed as the joint artistic director of the Chichester Festival Theatre between 2003 and 2005, reviving its fortunes.\nHe directed Agatha Christie's And Then There Were None at the Gielgud Theatre in the West End in 2005, with Tara FitzGerald, Gemma Jones and Graham Crowden, and Tchaikovsky's Eugene Onegin at the Royal Opera House in 2006. He was awarded the OBE in the 2007 New Year Honours list.\nAlthough he had been suffering from lung cancer, at the time of his death he was rehearsing a revival of Tennessee Williams' The Rose Tattoo, starring Zo\u00eb Wanamaker, which was taken over by his friend Nicholas Hytner. Also in later years, Pimlott's oboe playing became something more than a hobby, and he played in a number of professional concerts.\nHe married German soprano Daniela Bechly in 1991. Steven died at home in February 2007 . Daniela and their two sons and daughter; Oskar, Raphael and Phoebe continue living in their family home in Great Horkesley.\n^ Obituary, The Times, 16 February 2007.\nObituary, The Guardian, 16 February 2007\nObituary, The Independent, 16 February 2007\nObituary, The Daily Telegraph, 16 February 2007\nChichester Festival Theatre - Biography page\nOfficialLondonTheatre.com interview\nStage director Pimlott dies at 52, BBC News, 15 February 2007\nSteven Pimlott at the Internet Broadway Database\nSteven Pimlott on IMDb\nPimlott's Official Tribute site\nThe Pimlott Foundation\nRetrieved from \"https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Steven_Pimlott&oldid=834019001\"\nAlumni of Sidney Sussex College, Cambridge\nPeople educated at Manchester Grammar School",

        "raw_content": "(Redirected from Topsfield, MA)\nFor other uses, see Topsfield (disambiguation).\nTopsfield's Town Hall\nTopsfield, Massachusetts, Official Web Site\nParson Capen House, built in 1683\nTopsfield is a town in Essex County, Massachusetts, United States. The population was 6,085 at the 2010 census.[1] Topsfield is located in the North Shore region of Massachusetts. Part of the town comprises the census-designated place of Topsfield.\n1.2 Revolution and New Republic: Minutemen, turnpike, gerrymander and the fair\n1.3 Nineteenth and early twentieth century: railroad, Civil War, shoes and immigration\n1.4 Modern period: technological advances, automobiles, Route 128 and suburbia\n4.1 Topsfield town government\n6.1 Topsfield Fair\n6.2 Smith Family Homestead\nThe Agawam tribe inhabited Topsfield prior to and during the British colonization in the early seventeenth century. They were one of the Algonquian peoples.[2] They claimed the land north of the Danvers River, the whole of Cape Ann and from there to the Merrimack River. However, the first European explorers had brought smallpox to New England, decimating all the shore tribes from the Penobscot River to Narragansett Bay in 1616.\nChief Masconomet, for whom Masconomet Regional High School is named, was the sagamore or chief of the Agawam at this time. He welcomed Massachusetts Bay Colony Governor John Winthrop on his arrival in Salem Harbor in 1630. Masconomet deeded all the Agawams' land to Winthrop in 1638 in exchange for twenty pounds sterling. The English had settled within the bounds of modern-day Topsfield by 1643. They originally named their settlement New Meadows.[3] Tradition has long held that the Agawam called the place Shenewemedy, meaning \"the pleasant place by the flowing waters.\" More recent historians believe that Shenewemedy was how the Agawam pronounced New Meadows, rather than a word in their own language.[4]\nThe General Court of Massachusetts renamed the place Topsfield in 1648, undoubtedly after Toppesfield, England, a small parish in the county of Essex north of London. Topsfield was incorporated as a town in 1650.[5] Masconomet died in 1658 and was buried on Sagamore Hill, now in Hamilton. Nine years later, two young men were punished for digging up the grave of the sagamore and carrying his skull on a pole.[6] Native Americans were held in low regard and were poorly treated by the colonists.[7] There is no record of hostilities between the colonists and Native Americans in Topsfield, however, even during the French and Indian Wars, which covered the period 1689-97.[8] The Topsfield town records last mention Native American residents in 1750.[9]\nThe Salem witch trials of 1692 touched Topsfield directly. Belief in witches was normal in the seventeenth century. People were accused of witchcraft in Europe and the colonies during this time, but executions were relatively rare in the colonies. Historians conclude that only fifteen people were executed as witches in the American colonies before 1692. In that year alone, however, over 160 people, mostly from Essex County, Massachusetts, were accused of witchcraft. Of these, nineteen were hanged and one was pressed to death for refusing to plead. In July 1692, Rebecca Nurse of Salem Village (then part of the town of Salem, now part of present-day Danvers) was hanged at Gallows Hill in Salem. She was the daughter of William Towne of Topsfield. Young Salem Village girls allegedly possessed by the devil \u2013 the source of Rebecca Nurse's witchcraft accusation and most others \u2013 also named as witches Rebecca's Topsfield sisters, Sarah Cloyce and Mary Esty; while Sarah was eventually set free, Mary was hanged in September. Sarah Wildes and Elizabeth Howe from Topsfield were hanged along with Rebecca Nurse. Many other Topsfield residents were accused of witchcraft until the hysteria ended in May 1693, when the governor of Massachusetts set free all of the remaining persons accused of witchcraft and issued a proclamation of general pardon. While the causes of the 1692 witchcraft episode continue to be the subject of historical and sociological study, there is a consensus view that land disputes and perhaps economic rivalry among factions in Salem, Salem Village and Topsfield fueled animosity and played an underlying role.[10]\nThe witchcraft delusion is an extreme example of how religion is alloyed in Topsfield history, but other examples abound. Indeed, Topsfield was founded in part based on \"alarming\" 1633 news that the Roman Catholic French had planted settlements nearby and intended to send settlers \"with divers priests and Jesuits among them\".[11] Governor Winthrop and the Puritan establishment (who believed a Protestant theocracy was proper), countered the perceived Catholic threat in March of that year by sending English men and women into the wilderness that would become Topsfield. Among the first group was William Perkins, a preacher. From the beginning, Topsfield residents made provision for \"the publicke worship of God\".[12] In 1684, they hired the Reverend Joseph Capen, whose Parson Capen House still stands as the town's most notable historical landmark. A successor to Capen's original Congregational Church building overlooks the Topsfield common. Its white steeple graces countless postcards. Topsfield's preeminent historian, George Francis Dow, tells us: \"No minister of those early days left a deeper impression on the town than Reverend Joseph Capen, who wisely led the minds of the people along the varied paths of knowledge until his death in 1725.\"[13]\nNo minister in those early days may have left a deeper impression on Topsfield religious history, but it was a contemporary of Reverend Capen whose family has best connected Topsfield to the religious history of the world. Robert Smith settled in Topsfield in 1638. His descendants extended through five generations in Topsfield. They were respected townspeople and members of Capen's Congregational Church. Joseph Smith, Sr. was born in Topsfield in 1771, and his son, Joseph Smith, Jr., founded the Latter Day Saint movement. The younger Joseph Smith was born in Sharon, Vermont, in 1805, not long after his family moved from Topsfield. Mormons point out Topsfield in their church history books and continue to visit the Smith ancestral hometown today.[14]\nRevolution and New Republic: Minutemen, turnpike, gerrymander and the fair[edit]\nTopsfield Tollhouse along the Newburyport Turnpike\nThe population of Topsfield grew slowly in the eighteenth century, reaching only 773 by the year 1776. Topsfield was much smaller and more agrarian than other Essex County towns by the time of the Revolution and perhaps for these reasons the town seemed a bit more conservative and less ardent for independence than its Essex County neighbors.[15] Nonetheless, as tensions between crown and colonists mounted in the years before the American Revolution, Topsfield joined the network of committees dedicated to preserving the rights of the people. On June 8, 1771, the town voted to stand ready \"to preserve and Defend Our Own Lawfull Rights Libertys and propertys even to the last Extremity\".[16] Topsfield sent two militia companies numbering 110 \"Minute Men\" under the command of Capt. Joseph Gould, to answer the Lexington Alarm on April 19, 1775.[17] As Dow tells us, \"The news from Lexington, spreading like wildfire in every direction, reached this place at about ten o'clock in the forenoon. The farmers were busy in their fields, but there was no hesitation. The plough was stayed mid-furrow, and within an hour, many were on their way to the scene of the conflict.\"[18] Topsfield men participated in the Battle of Bunker Hill on June 17, 1775, and were part of General Washington's Continental army throughout the remainder of the American Revolutionary War.[19]\nAdvances in communication, transportation and commerce in the nineteenth century wove Topsfield ever more tightly into the fabric of the new republic. In 1803, Governor Caleb Strong chartered the Newburyport Turnpike Corporation, a profit-making venture that proposed building a toll road straight from Newburyport through Topsfield to Boston. Proponents of the turnpike claimed it would be a far more efficient way between the two endpoints, cutting travel time from six to four hours. Work on the Turnpike began in August 1803 and involved immense amounts of manual and animal labor. When the Newburyport Turnpike opened for business on February 11, 1805, its builders claimed it was the best in the nation. The turnpike had tollhouses located in Newbury, Topsfield and Chelsea, each with a large gate that swung open and closed across the way. Stagecoaches ran regularly carrying passengers, mail and freight, though not without difficulty over Topsfield's steep hills. Accidents were common. The Newburyport Turnpike Corporation was never particularly profitable and became less so with the advent of the railroad. The corporation ceased operations around 1847 and sold the turnpike to Essex County in the early 1850s.[20]\nIn contrast to the straightness of the turnpike, Topsfield was one of the towns surrounded by the original \"Gerrymander\" - meandering electoral districts drawn by Governor Elbridge Gerry in 1812 to further the interests of his political party. The Gerrymander brought Topsfield little claim to fame; but on June 12, 1818, the state legislature did something that would bring Topsfield its greatest claim to fame - it chartered the Essex Agricultural Society, the organization that runs the Topsfield Fair.\nFirst printed in March 1812, this political cartoon was drawn in reaction to the state senate electoral districts drawn by the Massachusetts legislature to favor the Democratic-Republican party candidates of Governor Elbridge Gerry over the Federalists. The caricature satirizes the bizarre shape of a district in Essex County, Massachusetts as a dragon. Federalist's newspapers editors and others at the time likened the district shape to a salamander, and one Federalist leader undoubtedly said, rather than describe it as salamander \"call it a gerrymander, after Governor Gerry.\" Hence the word was invented.\nNineteenth and early twentieth century: railroad, Civil War, shoes and immigration[edit]\nIn the middle of the nineteenth century, entrepreneurs in New England started small railroad companies. John Wright and Asa Pingree were among the Topsfield men who chartered the Danvers and Georgetown Railroad in 1851, with plans to run a rail line between those two towns through Topsfield. Railroad cars entered Topsfield for the first time on August 12, 1854. When the line was open for public travel on October 23, the Boston Transcript wrote, \"It was a great day for the hardworking citizens of several towns of Essex County when a new route between Boston and Newburyport was opened to the public. We understand a large number of persons from Georgetown, Boxford and Topsfield, who had never travelled with a steam horse, ventured the experiment of jumping on and trying him.\"[21] The Topsfield station was first on Main Street and moved to a new location on Park Street in 1897. Railroad mergers and other unions were common at this time. By 1905, a number of the local lines \u2013 the Danvers and Georgetown, the Danvers Railroad, the Newburyport Railroad and the Eastern Railroad (Massachusetts) among them \u2013 were effectively made part of the Boston and Maine Railroad.[22]\nThe news of the firing on Fort Sumter on April 12, 1861, reached Topsfield about five o'clock that afternoon. Topsfield sent 113 soldiers to the American Civil War and appropriated funds for recruiting and supporting them. Dow adds, \"The ladies of Topsfield worked heartily in the cause of the soldiers during the war, and forwarded to the army, money, clothing and hospital stores\".[23] The Topsfield soldiers \u2013 many of whom may never before have \"travelled with a steam horse\" or left town at all \u2013 fought and died in places far from home: Bull Run, Virginia; Gettysburg, Pennsylvania; and Port Hudson, Louisiana, to name just a few. Several men of Topsfield died as prisoners in the Confederates' notorious Andersonville Prison in Georgia. In 1860, Topsfield had a population of 1,292, but in 1865 that number had fallen to 1,212. In his will, Dr. Justin Allen left money to the town to erect a monument to honor Topsfield soldiers of the Civil War. Alphonso T. Merrill's design, called \"The wounded color Sergeant\", is a prominent landmark on the Topsfield Common, dedicated in 1914.[24]\nUp to and through the 19th century, Topsfield was principally an agrarian town, but one industry - the manufacture of shoes - flourished for a while in Topsfield, as it did at this time across New England. The town records mention the first shoe maker in 1838. The industry picked up in Topsfield during the Civil War, as sewed shoes were beginning to supersede pegged ones, and many Essex County firms supplied shoes to the Union troops. In 1867, four shoe manufacturing firms were located in town. The Herrick family owned the largest, founded in 1837. Topsfield shoes found customers across the United States, and it was said that, at its highest point of production, Topsfield shipped 200,000 pairs annually. The shoe business in Topsfield declined after the Civil War. The Herrick family, the last manufacturer in town, ceased operations in the early 20th century.[25]\nIn one sense, all the people in Topsfield are immigrants, now that the Agawam people were gone. During the time of the Irish Potato famine, a wave of Irish immigrants came to America, arriving in Topsfield in the 1850s to work constructing the railroad. Dow tells us, \"The Irishmen employed in the making of the roadbed were brought into Topsfield in 50 tipcarts, just at the edge of the evening [after the work day was over].\" The Irish workers slept in town and later occupied shanties located above the railroad bridge, which crosses West Street.[26] The first known Catholic families moved to Topsfield during this time.[27] Italian immigrants arrived in the wave of immigration, mostly from eastern and southern Europe, which occurred from 1890 to 1920. They worked constructing the great estates and summerhouses in Essex County.[28] On the estate of Thomas E. Proctor, now owned by the Massachusetts Audubon Society (the Ipswich River Wildlife Sanctuary), Italian immigrant stonemasons constructed the \"Rockery\" - a lavish rock garden and series of caverns - which still exists. They lived in shanties during the construction. Historians believe that Topsfield's first Italian families are descended from these masons.[29]\nModern period: technological advances, automobiles, Route 128 and suburbia[edit]\nThe turnpike and railroad were important technological advances affecting Topsfield history in the early and middle 19th century, but the pace of technological change picked up dramatically as that century came to a close. The 1870s and 1880s saw the invention of three technologies that we take for granted today, but were revolutionary in their day: the electric light bulb, the telephone and centrally-generated electricity generation. All three were available to Topsfield residents by the 1890s and boomed after the start of the 20th century. These technologies, like the turnpike and railroad before them, integrated the town of Topsfield ever more closely into the county, the state, the nation and the world.\nThe automobile, however, affected Topsfield more than any other technology by allowing its residents to disconnect where they lived from where they worked. Automobiles need roads, of course, and the quality and quantity of road-building accelerated during the twentieth century. Massachusetts Route 128, with Boston at its center, quietly but powerfully influenced Topsfield's history and character. Originally known as the \"Circumferential Highway\", Route 128 was the first limited-access beltway in the United States. The Route 128 number dates from the origin of the Massachusetts highway system in the 1920s. By the 1950s, Route 128 ran from Nantasket Beach in Hull to Gloucester. With the rapid growth of high-technology industry in the suburban areas along Route 128, the highway came to symbolize the Boston high-tech community itself. In 1955, Business Week magazine ran an article titled \"New England Highway Upsets Old Way of Life\" and referred to Route 128 as \"the Magic Semicircle\". The number of companies grew rapidly from that point in time, many of them involved with space race and cold war defense projects. In the 1980s, the positive effects of this growth on the Massachusetts economy were dubbed the \"Massachusetts Miracle\". Throughout this period of expansion, employees of the Route 128 companies made Topsfield their home.[30]\nFor its first three hundred years, Topsfield was a small farm town. But each year from its colonial period Topsfield has grown more closely connected to the larger world. More than anything else, affordable automobiles and modern road systems changed Topsfield and made the town what it is today - a suburban bedroom community within the greater Boston metropolitan area.\nGeography and transportation[edit]\nAccording to the United States Census Bureau, Topsfield has a total area of 12.8 square miles (33.2 km2), of which 11.9 square miles (30.9 km2) are land and 0.89 square miles (2.3 km2), or 7.00%, is water.[31] Topsfield lies in the geographic center of Essex County, Massachusetts. Like its namesake in Essex, England, Topsfield has within its bounds some of the higher land in the county. The highest point in town is found on Great Hill, with an elevation of at least 245 feet (75 m), according to the most recent (2011-2012) USGS 7.5-minute topographical map.[32] Hood's Pond, covering an area of 68 acres (28 ha) in the northern part of town, is the largest body of water in Topsfield, though most of it lies in Ipswich. Topsfield also includes parts of the Ipswich River Wildlife Sanctuary, Bradley Palmer State Park, Willowdale State Forest and the entirety of the Topsfield Town Forest.\nClockwise from the north, Topsfield is bounded by Ipswich, Hamilton, Wenham, Danvers, Middleton and Boxford. Topsfield is located approximately 10 miles (16 km) north of Salem and 22 miles (35 km) north of Boston. Part of the North Shore in name, if not in actuality, Topsfield is 12 miles (19 km) south of the Merrimack River and 8 miles (13 km) from Massachusetts Bay and the Atlantic Ocean. Interstate 95 passes through the southwestern corner of town, with exits in neighboring Danvers and Boxford. The town is nearly bisected from southwest to northeast by U.S. Route 1, known locally as the \"Newburyport Turnpike\" or \"Old Boston Road\". From northwest to southeast, Massachusetts Route 97 also crosses through town. (A few yards of Route 35 enter the town as well, before terminating at Route 97.) The now-abandoned Boston and Maine Railroad line passes through town; the town lies west of the Newburyport/Rockport Line of the MBTA Commuter Rail. The nearest airport is the Beverly Municipal Airport, with the nearest national and international air service at Boston's Logan International Airport.\nAt the 2000 census, there were 6,141 people, 2,099 households and 1,712 families residing in the town. The population density was 482.1 per square mile (186.1/km\u00b2). There were 2,144 housing units at an average density of 65.0 persons/km\u00b2 (168.3 persons/sq mi). The racial makeup of the town was 97.8% White, 0.4% African American, 0.03% Native American, 0.85% Asian, 0.00% Pacific Islander, 0.34% from other races, and 0.65% from two or more races. 0.83% of the population were Hispanic or Latino of any race.\nThere were 2,099 households of which 40.2% had children under the age of 18 living with them, 73.7% were married couples living together, 6.1% have a woman whose husband does not live with her, and 18.4% were non-families. 16.0% of all households were made up of individuals and 9.2% had someone living alone who was 65 years of age or older. The average household size was 2.87 and the average family size was 3.22.\nThe median household income was $96,430, and the median family income was $104,475. Males had a median income of $67,428 versus $43,780 for females. The per capita income for the town was $37,770 1.7% of the population and 0.4% of families were below the poverty line. Out of the total people living in poverty, 0.0% are under the age of 18 and 4.1% are 65 or older.\nTopsfield town government[edit]\nTopsfield is governed by an Open Town Meeting and an elected five-member Board of Selectmen who appoint the Town Administrator. One or two members of the Board of Selectmen are elected each year to serve for three years. The current members are Mark Lyons, Chair, Lynne Bermudez, Clerk, Boyd Jackson, John Spencer and A. Richard Gandt.\nThe Board of Selectmen has evolved through more than three hundred years of tradition and custom. In addition to those duties dertrmined by Massachusetts General Law and established by custom, the Selectmen's powers and duties are determined by state law and the Town\u2019s bylaws.\nSince 2009, following a vote of Town Meeting to update the Town\u2019s General By-Laws, the Selectmen have appointed a Town Administrator as serve as an agent of the Board and to oversee day to day operations and the delivery of Town Services provided under the legal authority of the Board of Selectmen. The first Town Administrator was Virginia Wilder (2009-2013). The second Town Administrator, Kellie A. Hebert was appointed in September 2013. The Board provides general supervision over Town matters not specifically delegated by law or voted to another officer or board.\nThe Selectmen generally meet every other Monday night in the Town Hall. All meetings are posted and are open to the public. Regular business meetings are televised and may be viewed on Channel 10/47, the Community Channel. Selectmen's meetings, like those of all public boards and committees, must be posted at least 48 hours in advance. The meetings are open to the public and subject to the requirements of the state\u2019s Open Meeting Law: Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 39, Section 23B. The Board may retire to executive session only to discuss those matters permitted by law. The Board must state which of the eight provisions is being invoked at that time. All minutes are a matter of public record except when they need to remain secret long enough to protect the legal purposes of the session.\nState government[edit]\nTopsfield is part of the Second Essex state senate district (seat held in 2015 by Senator Joan Lovely (D) and the Fourth Essex state congressional district (seat held in 2012 by Representative Bradford Hill (R)).\nFederal government[edit]\nTopsfield is part of the Sixth Congressional District of Massachusetts. The seat is currently held by Representative Seth Moulton (D- Salem).\nTopsfield has two public elementary schools: Steward School located on Perkins Row, serving preschool through third grade; and Proctor Elementary School located in downtown Topsfield, serving fourth through sixth grade. In the 1970s, each of these schools had all the elementary grades and students attended from different parts of town. Masconomet Regional Middle School and Masconomet Regional High School, situated together in Boxford (although they sport Topsfield mailing addresses), serve seventh through eighth grade and ninth through twelfth grade, respectively. Both the high school and middle school enroll students from Boxford and Middleton. In athletics, Masconomet is part of the Cape Ann League.\nTopsfield Fair[edit]\nSee also: Fiesta Shows and Topsfield Fair\nTopsfield is home of the Topsfield Fair, which attracted almost 500,000 visitors in 2008.[43] The fair, one of the oldest of its type in the US, was started in 1818 by the recently formed Essex Agricultural Society.[44][45] The first annual fair was a cattle show held by the society on October 5, 1818. The president of the society, Timothy Pickering, was awarded a first-place prize for the \"superior performance of his plow.\" The Topsfield Fair ran every year following that first show, with the exception of three years during the Civil War and three years during World War II. The fair today features carnival rides, games and concert events in addition to the more traditional attractions, such as exhibitions of livestock, rabbits and cavies, crafts, horses and produce. The fair also hosts the All New England Giant Pumpkin Weigh-Off. The current record-holding pumpkin was entered in 2016 and weighed 2,075.5 pounds.[46] The fairgrounds are used for various activities during the year including horse shows, mineral shows, indoor soccer, indoor lacrosse, concerts, and other forms of recreation. The grounds are located along Boston Street, adjacent to the Ipswich River. Five separate lots surrounding the grounds provide parking, and are lettered A-E during fair time. These lots are also regularly used for recreation during non-fair times. Satellite parking during peak hours of the fair can be found at Masconomet Regional High School, with busses regularly bringing people back and forth from the lot. The Topsfield Fair always runs for 11 days, between the last weekend in September and Columbus Day. The Fair is held in October and the weather is normally clear and it is a family fun time for kids of all ages.\nSmith Family Homestead[edit]\nLocated approximately 2 miles from downtown Topsfield, the Smith Family Homestead was home to five generations of the Smith family who are ascendants of the Prophet Joseph Smith, an important figure in the Mormon church. Four members of the prophet's family lived in the house, dating as far back as 1693. Robert Smith, the first in the family to live in Topsfield, came to America and purchased 208 acres of land located in both Topsfield and the nearby township of Boxford. Samuel Smith (I) built what would become known as the Smith Family Homestead following his father's passing, while becoming a prominent figure in the area. His son, Samuel Smith (II) also influenced local politics and was heavily involved in the First Provincial Congress in Concord in both 1774 and 1775. Following the death of Samuel Smith (II) in 1785, Asael Smith, grandfather of Prophet Joseph Smith, took control of the homestead. In 1771, Asael Smith\u2019s wife Mary gave birth to Joseph Smith Sr, the father of prophet Joseph Smith. In 1875, the house originally built on the property was replaced by a more modern estate. In October 2005, a marker was placed in front of the house by the Mormon Historic Sites Foundation and the Topsfield Historical Society commemorating the lives of the Smith family and the presence they previously had on the property. The house is privately owned and not open for tours, but large groups are regularly seen visiting the property and commemorating the prominent figures of the Mormon society.\nTopsfield residents have traditionally celebrated Memorial Day with a parade through the center of town to honor Topsfield's living veterans and those who have died in service of the county. Topsfield residents served in the Revolutionary War, the Civil War, the Spanish\u2013American War and all of the wars of the twentieth century. A memorial to Topsfield's veterans is on the common.\nSummer begins in Topsfield with the Topsfield Historical Society's Strawberry Festival in early June. Bowls of fresh strawberries, whipped cream and piles of shortcakes are served by volunteer members. This can be the first introduction to small town life for Topsfield newcomers - all the local groups such as the Garden Clubs, the Friends of the Library, the Newcomers Club among many others are available to explain their activities and invite new members. Old timers look forward to live music, displays of arts and crafts the latest donations to the Friends of the Library book sale.\nRyan Serhant, Realtor and Actor\nAbbey D'Agostino, Olympic athlete\nDonna Murphy, stage and film actress\nBradley Palmer, lawyer and businessman\nJoseph Smith, Sr., father of LDS Church founder Joseph Smith\nCoolidge Estate\n^ \"Profile of General Population and Housing Characteristics: 2010 Demographic Profile Data (DP-1): Topsfield town, Essex County, Massachusetts\".

They were the landing places for the Allied invasion of western Europe during World War II.\nAn excellent time to visit is on the June 6th anniversary when there are numerous memorial ceremonies to mark the occasion. A large number of reenactment groups attend, adding pageantry and atmosphere. The church bells ring in the towns to celebrate the anniversary of their liberation. The French people will be happy to see you - these people remember, and the welcome will be warm.\nIt has been a long time since 1944 and not many of the old soldiers survive, but those that do often return to these beaches on June 6th. For the 70th anniversary in 2014, 90-year-old Royal Navy veteran Bernard Jordan was denied permission to leave his nursing home because of his health; he snuck out and got on a ferry to France anyway. Two elderly paratroopers, a 93-year-old American and an 89-year-old Briton, jumped into France that day as they had 70 years earlier.\nSee World War II in Europe for context.\nAmerican troops going in\nThe high ground visible here made the landing on Omaha Beach especially difficult\nOn 6 June 1944 (D-Day), the long-awaited invasion of Northwest Europe (Operation Overlord) began with Allied landings on the coast of Normandy (Operation Neptune).\nThe task was formidable, for the Germans had turned the coastline into an interlinked series of strongpoints with artillery, machine guns, pillboxes, barbed wire, land mines, and beach obstacles. Germany had 50 divisions in northern France and the Low Countries, including at least a dozen in position to immediately be used against this invasion.\nFollowing an extensive air and sea bombardment of the assault areas, the Allies launched a simultaneous landing of U.S., British and Canadian forces. About 160,000 ground troops landed that day, roughly half American and half Commonwealth. About 4,000 ships, 11,000 planes, and many thousands of sailors and airmen also took part in the operation.\nOverall commander of Allied forces in Europe was the American General Eisenhower, who would later become the country's president, while the British General Montgomery was in charge of the ground forces once they landed. On the German side, General Rommel was in charge of coastal defenses while Field Marshall von Rundstedt had overall command in the region.\nThis was the largest seaborne invasion in history and an important Allied victory, though the costs in both lives and material were enormous.\nThe landings[edit]\nThe eyes of the world are upon you. The hopes and prayers of liberty-loving people everywhere march with you. \u2013 General Dwight D. Eisenhower\nThe main assault routes\nJust after midnight 24,000 men came in by parachute and glider on the flanks, to secure key points. Then the main seaborne landings on five separate beaches began at dawn. East-to-west, the attacks were:\nThe British 6th Airborne, with one Canadian battalion, on the left flank near Caen\n49.2988-0.30551 Sword Beach (British).\n49.332-0.3992 Juno Beach (Canadian).\n49.346-0.5543 Gold Beach (British).\n49.372-0.88364 Omaha Beach (American).\n49.415402777-1.1746472225 Utah Beach (American).\nThe US 82nd and 101st Airborne, on the right flank around Sainte-M\u00e8re-\u00c9glise\nEvery beach has monuments and museums; see the Beaches section below for details.\nWhen the seaborne units began to land, the allied soldiers stormed the beaches against strong opposition, despite mines and obstacles. They raced across open beaches swept with machine gun fire and stormed the German gun positions. In fierce hand-to-hand fighting, they fought their way into the towns and hills and then advanced inland. Casualties were heavy in all areas and on both sides, though initially the Germans in their fortified positions had lighter losses than the Allies.\nBy the end of the day the 3rd British Division was within three miles of Caen, the 3rd Canadian Division was well established on its intermediate objectives and the 50th British Division was only two miles from Bayeux. In the American zone, the 4th Division had established a 4-mile deep penetration inland and was within reach of Ste-Mere-Eglise, where the 82nd had fought throughout the night. At Omaha Beach the Germans had an advantage of terrain from the bluffs above the landing sites, but there too beachheads had been established.\nIt was a magnificent accomplishment; the formidable Atlantic Wall had been successfully breached. By the end of D-Day, the Allies had landed more than 150,000 troops in France by sea and air, 6,000 vehicles including 900 tanks, 600 guns, and about 4,000 tons of supplies and, astonishingly, they had achieved complete surprise in doing it. More soldiers and supplies were pouring ashore to continue the advance; by early July the Allies had over a million men in France, and in August the total reached two million.\nThe main invading force was American, British and Canadian, but several other allies had observers present or were involved in other ways.\nThe captive nations of Europe contributed significantly to their own liberation; they all (even Germany) had resistance movements, and several also had more formal forces involved; on D-Day there were Free French on the beaches, and Norwegian, Dutch and Polish Navy ships offshore. A Polish armoured division fought as part of the Canadian army in Normandy; later in the war that army had Belgian, Dutch and Czechoslovakian contingents. From D-Day through all the fighting in France, Belgium and Holland, the resistance disrupted both German communications and their efforts to move urgently-needed reinforcements and supplies. On D-Day, Free French paratroopers were dropped in Brittany (the region west of Normandy) to help with that; their success was a factor in the American victories on the Cotentin Peninsula shortly after D-Day and in Brittany later.\nBy the time of this war the British Empire was far past its peak, but it was still a force to be reckoned with. On D-Day about half the landing force were British or Canadian, and the Empire made contributions beyond that. Ships of the New Zealand merchant marine delivered troops and British-based squadrons of the RAAF, RNZAF and RCAF were in action along with the RAF and USAF. Also, every branch of the British services included personnel from other countries of the Empire.\nThe usual bases for visits to the beaches are either Caen or Bayeux; all the beaches are easily reached from either, though both are a bit inland not right on the beaches.\nCaen is the main city of the department of Manche, and the second most important city in Normandy after Rouen; it has various attractions and excellent shopping. It is about 15 km (10 miles) from the coast. The Memorial de Caen museum offers daily tours of the beaches.\nBayeux is a smaller town, closer to the coast and to the center of the invasion landing area. It is easy to get in and out of, and convenient for visiting the Omaha, Gold and Juno beach sectors. It has excellent restaurants and shops with an interesting pedestrian section.\nOuistreham is on the coast at the eastern end of the landing area, on Sword Beach, and may be convenient because it has a ferry from Portsmouth.\nArromanches-les-Bains is on the coast near the center, on Gold Beach, and was one site where a \"mulberry harbour\" (artificial port) was built shortly after D-Day.\nSainte-M\u00e8re-\u00c9glise is to the west, inland of Utah Beach; American paratroopers were dropped in the area a few hours before the seaborne invasion and fought a fierce battle in and around the town.\nThe area has many other villages; most are quite picturesque and are able to accommodate tourists.\nOne could also stay in one of the towns outside the actual landing area where an important battle was fought in the weeks after D Day. See the Normandy campaign section below for details.\nAlmost every town in this area was damaged during the war; some \u2014 such as Caen, Saint-L\u00f4, Vire and Falaise \u2014 were mostly destroyed. However, they have all long since been rebuilt. Bayeux was fortunately undamaged and so still retains the Medieval character.\nNormandy has a temperate-zone maritime climate. The summers are warm and winters are mild. Rain however is a part of the climate all year round, winter seeing more rain than summer. The ongoing rain isn't enough to spoil a vacation most of the time and it does have a benefit, the nature is incredibly lush and green. Winter does see the occasional snow and frost as well, but in general the climate is pretty moderate in winter.\nSummers are a little warmer than in southern Britain with up to 8 hours of sunshine per day. Cyclists love the region because it is not nearly as hot as most other parts of France and can be more compared to southern England than inland France. Either way, sunscreen and a hat are necessary; even if it doesn't feel as hot as the rest of France, the sun is still beating down with force!\nNormandy is easily reachable from Paris, either by car (2 to 3 hours drive) or by train (2 hours from Paris St Lazare station to Caen central station).\nAlternatively, a ferry across the channel will take you in just over three hours from Portsmouth to Ouistreham, the easternmost D-Day target, an ideal starting point. Portsmouth, which was one of the ports from which the invasion was launched and has a D-Day Museum. Other ferries go to Cherbourg and Le Havre, nearby though not in the actual landing area.\nCaen also has an airport, near the village of Carpiquet west of the city. Control of the airfield was fiercely contested in the weeks after D-Day.\nTour the beaches and battlefields, see the various museums and cemeteries throughout the area, and visit the seaside villages and towns. Independent travel either by car or using public transport is possible.\nMap of D-Day beaches\nLocal tourist information offices provide a leaflet (in English) that lists key visitor attractions, and has details of seven route itineraries which are also signposted on the road network.\nCar rental in Normandy can be arranged through several international chains including Avis, Budget, Eurocar, and Hertz. Cars can be picked up in Caen. Driving in France is on the right-hand side of the road and all distance and speed measurements are in km.\nBus routes in Normandy with services between Caen and Bayeux, Bayeux and Ouistreham, and Bayeux to Grandcamp. These cover most of the main landing beaches. All the routes are operated by Bus Verts du Calvados, and free timetables can be acquired from the main tourist offices. Telephone 0810 214 214.\nFrom Bayeux train station, you can catch a bus to some of the D-Day beaches. On the bus website there is a map of the bus route to the D-Day beaches. Bus 70 takes you to Omaha beach, the American cemetery, and to Pointe Du Hoc. Bus 74 takes you to Arromanches Beach, the location of the Mulberry harbors. According to Wikipedia: \"Omaha beach is 5 miles (8 km) long, from east of Sainte-Honorine-des-Pertes to west of Vierville-sur-Mer\" and these villages are accessible via Bus 70. Buses are few and far between, so take the few number of buses into account. Also, buses do not run when there is heavy snow, so check the bus website beforehand during snow season.\nBike tours are very popular in France and biking is an excellent way of visiting the battlefields. You can rent bicycles at most major towns and railway stations in France.\nOn D-Day, some of the invading troops used bicycles; see the photos below of British troops at Lion-sur-Mer and Canadians at Juno Beach.\nGuided tours[edit]\nGuided tours including transport are available; most travel agents in the area and many of the hotels can arrange these if required. The Memorial de Caen museum also conducts daily tours of the beaches.\nIn Caen or Bayeux, some companies offer half-day or full-day guided tours to the battlefields with English-speaking guides.\nNormandy Sightseeing Tours offers tours from Bayeux to all five landing beaches and beyond. They use 8-seat vans, for smaller groups and a better experience. The guides are French and mostly locals from Normandy, all English-speaking.\nLa Rouge Tours is one example of tours led by professional Battlefield Guides, mostly conducted by former servicemen.\nNow more than 70 years after D-Day, the Normandy coastline of Calvados and Manche is peaceful with lovely seaside towns and picturesque beaches. Many of the towns have names of the form something-sur-mer; sur-mer is French for \"on the sea\". Behind the coast is an old-fashioned farming landscape of grain fields, cattle and pastures, hedges and farmhouses.\n\"Take time to stroll on the beaches and through the villages and to drive country lanes that are once again regulated by rural rhythms, just as if they\u2019d never been devastated at all. It's pretty and poignant, and here\u2019s a strange thing, it brings out the best in people. There\u2019s respect in the air and a common bond between visitors. Folk behave well, smile and chat more easily than usual.\"\nAnthony Peregrine, The Sunday Times.\nHowever, the memories of war and D-Day are engrained in the landscape. Along the 80-km (50-mile) D-Day invasion coast there are the remains of German gun emplacements and bunkers, while war memorials and monuments mark where the allied forces landed. Inland, there are monuments in almost every village and at every bend in the road, for there is barely a square yard that wasn\u2019t fought over. Along the coast and inland there are numerous D-Day related museums. Only by visiting do you get a proper idea of the vastness of the enterprise.\nThe following description of the beaches is organized in an east-to-west order, so that it can be used to plan a driving or biking tour along the coast. The length of a tour depends on how many sites and museums a person decides to visit. Enthusiasts could spend several weeks, but two or three days are enough to cover the major sites. A good starting point is to get an orientation to the area and the history of D-Day at either the Memorial de Caen or Mus\u00e9e du D\u00e9barquement (The Landing Museum) in Arromanches, and from there set out to explore.\nThe beaches are still known today by their D-Day code names.\nSword Beach[edit]\nKieffer monument\nBritish troops at Lion-sur-Mer\nSword beach, the most easterly of the five beaches, stretches from Ouistreham to Luc-sur-Mer. The British 3rd Infantry Division landed on the 4 km (2\u00bd-miles) of beach between Ouistreham and Lion-sur-mer. The 41st Royal Marine Commando landed at Lion-sur-Mer, while the N\u00b04 British Commando landed at Ouistreham. Integrated with the N\u00b04 British Commando were 177 Frenchmen of the 1st Battalion of Fusiliers Marins Commandos who were granted the honor to set foot on Normandy soil in the first wave. On the eastern flank of Sword beach, the Sixth British Airborne had parachuted in the early morning hours of June 6th to seize bridges over the River Orne and Caen canal, silence gun batteries and secure the eastern flank of the D-Day beaches. A Coup de Main attack captured Pegasus and Horsa bridges to ensure access to the high ground overlooking Sword was secured.\nThe Germans fought hard on all beaches, but Sword was the only one where they were able to mount a counter-attack with an armoured division on D-Day itself. This caused heavy casualties and stopped the British advance for a time.\nMus\u00e9e de la Batterie de Merville, Place du 9\u00e8me Bataillon, 14810 Merville-Franceville (In the Merville coastal battery casemate), \u260e +33 2 31 91 47 53.

The capture of Pegasus Bridge was a remarkable achievement of the Glider Pilot regiment and the Sixth British Airborne. The story is well covered in the museum where exhibits include the original P\u00e9gasus Bridge and a Horsa Glider. Several monuments to the Sixth British Airborne are beside the bridge. 7.50\u20ac.\nSite D\u2019Ouistreham. This beautiful seaside resort town has a legacy of fortifications, memorials, museums and military cemeteries, that stand at ease between beach hotels, fine stretches of sand, breezy cliffs and postcard-picturesque fishing harbours. There are several monuments in the town including the Free French monument, Royal Navy and Royal Marines monument, 13th/18th Royal Hussars monument, and N\u00b04 Commando plaques. The Kieffer monument stands atop a German bunker and is named for the Commando Lieutenant who led the attack that took it.\nMus\u00e9e Nr 4 Commando (N\u00b0 4 Commando Museum), Place Alfred Thomas, 14150 Ouistreham, \u260e +33 2 31 96 63 10. In this museum one can see scale models, weapons, and uniforms to retrace the story of the Franco-British Commandos who landed on Sword Beach.\nMus\u00e9e du Mur de L\u2019Atlantique (Atlantic Wall Museum), av du 6 Juin, 14150 Ouistreham, \u260e +33 2 31 97 28 69. In a former artillery range-finding post on the Atlantic Wall, this 17 m high concrete tower is the only one of its kind and has been restored and re-equipped to its original state. 7\u20ac.\nSite de Lion-sur-Mer. Monuments include the Liberation monument, Royal Engineers Corps monument, and 41st Royal Marine Commando stele.\nSite de Colleville-Montgomery.

On the site of a German fortified radar base, the museum explains the evolution and operation of radar. Outside one can observe a German radar W\u00fcrzburg.\nThere are two Commonwealth cemeteries near this beach; see the cemeteries section for details.\nJuno Beach[edit]\nSecond-wave Canadians at Berni\u00e8res, bringing bicycles to move inland quickly\nJuno beach is five miles wide and includes the towns of St. Aubin-sur-Mer, Berni\u00e8res-sur-Mer and Courseulles-sur-Mer. The 3rd Canadian Infantry Division reinforced by the 2nd Canadian Armoured Brigade landed in two brigade groups and fought their way across the beaches and into the towns. The No. 48 Royal Marine Commando secured the left flank at Langrune-sur-Mer.\nThe coastline bristled with guns, concrete emplacements, pillboxes, fields of barbed wire and mines. The opposition the Canadians faced as they landed was stronger than at any other beach except Omaha.\nSite de Langrune-sur-Mer. In the town center, on the sea front is the 48th Royal Marine Commando monument. In the entrance hall of the city hall there is a plaque in memory of the friendship between the 48th Royal Marines Commando veterans and the citizens of Langrune-sur-Mer.\nSite de Saint-Aubin-sur-Mer. A 50-mm gun casement has been preserved at Place du Canada. There are stone memorials to the North Shore (New Brunswick) Regiment, Fort Garry Horse, and 48th Royal Marine Commando here.\nD-Day Memorial, near Berni\u00e8res-sur-Mer, Juno Beach\nSite de Berni\u00e8res-sur-Mer. This pretty seaside village is distinguished by its church with a 13th century bell tower and 67 m (220 ft) spire. La Maison Queen's Own Rifles of Canada commemorates the men of this regiment. The house is one the famous houses on the beach as it appeared in many newsreels and official photos. Memorials to the Queen's Own Rifles, Le Regiment de la Chaudi\u00e8re, and Fort Garry Horse are by a German bunker at La Place du Canada. There is an excellent view of the beach from the bunker position and you can imagine what it must have been like when 800 men of the Queens's Own Rifles stormed ashore here as the lead wave of the dramatic D-Day assault. There are also the North Nova Scotia Highlanders plaque and Journalists HQ plaque. There is a walkway on the seawall that makes for a pleasant stroll along the ocean. If you walk east along the seawall about \u00bd km, you can see the house that appears in the background on the famous film footage showing the Queen\u2019s Own Rifles of Canada storming the beach on D-Day.\nSherman Duplex Drive tank, Courseulles-sur-Mer\nSite de Courseulles-sur-Mer. In the Courseulles-sur-Mer town centre, on the sea front there is a Sherman Duplex Drive (DD) tank on display. These tanks were partly amphibious, capable of swimming ashore from their landing craft; the soldiers interpreted \"DD\" as \"Donald Duck\". These were one of several types of unusual armour developed specifically for the Normandy landings, mostly made in the US, used by all the Allies, and known as \"Hobart's funnies\" after the British general in charge of their design. This particular tank was recovered in 1970 from the sea and restored. Badges of regimental units who fought in the area are welded to it. Monuments in the area include the Royal Winnipeg Rifles monument, Regina Rifles Regiment stele, Canadian Scottish Regiment stele, Royal Engineers plaque, and the Liberation and De Gaulle monument. The Croix de Lorraine monument commemorates the return of General de Gaulle to France.\nCentre Juno Beach (Juno Beach Centre), voie des Fran\u00e7ais Libres, 14470 Courseulles-sur-Mer, \u260e +33 2 31 37 32 17. The Juno Beach Centre presents Canada's role in military operations and the war effort on the home front in World War II. Film, audio and displays bring pre-war and wartime Canada alive, as well as covering the fighting experiences. Juno Park at the front of the centre has walkways with interpretation panels, a preserved German bunker, and a path leading to the beach. There is little development here, so nothing interrupts your contemplation of beach and ocean. You can imagine the sands littered with mines-on-sticks, spiky metal \u201chedgehogs\u201d, barbed wire and other barbarisms intended to rip the heart out of landing craft and the 14,000 Canadians that landed in this area. 7\u20ac.\nSite de Graye-sur-Mer. Monuments include the Liberation monument , Churchill \"One Charlie\" tank, breakthrough plaque, Royal Winnipeg Rifles, and 1st Canadian Scottish plaque, Canadian plaque, and Inns of Court monument.\nThere is a Canadian cemetery near this beach; see the cemeteries section.\nGold Beach[edit]\nBritish tanks roll ashore, from an American-manned ship\nGold beach is more than 5 miles wide and includes the towns of La Rivi\u00e8re, Le Hamel and Arromanches-les-Bains. The British 50th Infantry Division reinforced by the British 8th Armoured Brigade landed in two brigade groups at Gold beach. The 47th Royal Marine Commando landed on the western flank with the objective to take Port-en-Bessin.\nMus\u00e9e America Gold Beach (America Gold Beach Museum), 2, Place Amiral Byrd, 14114 Ver-sur-Mer, \u260e +33 2 31 22 58 58.

The film The Price Of Freedom impressively mixes archived film from June 1944 with present day pictures and is presented on 9 screens in a circular theater.\nMulberry harbour. At Arromanches, you\u2019re looking down a stretch of Gold Beach and site of the Mulberry harbour. The invasion needed a port to bring in supplies on a huge scale. So the allies built concrete pontoons that were towed across the channel and sunk to form the port\u2019s outer perimeter. Twenty of the original 115 pontoons still defy the waves.\nMus\u00e9e du D\u00e9barquement (The Landing Museum), Place du 6 Juin, 14117 Arromanches, \u260e +33 2 31 22 34 31. In front of the actual vestiges of the Mulberries, this museum is devoted to the incredible feat of technology achieved by the British in building and setting up the artificial harbour. Period newsreel movies in English and French. Impressive dynamic scale-models showing how the floating docks rolled with the waves and tides. A 75-foot section of Mulberry floating bridge on display outside. Military equipment is on display outside, including an American half-track and a Higgins boat. \u00a33.90.\nThe Longues-sur-Mer battery housed four 150mm guns with a range of 20 km\nBatterie de Longues, Longues-sur-Mer (Access from the D514 road (follow the road-signs)), \u260e +33 2 31 06 06 45. The Longues-sur-Mer battery housed four 150mm guns with a range of 20 km and gave the Allied ships a pounding on the morning of 6 June. It is the only coastal battery to have kept its guns, giving an impressive picture of what an Atlantic Wall gun emplacement was really like.\nSite de Port-en-Bessin. A monument in memory of the 47th Royal Marine Commando soldiers who were killed during the liberation of Port-en-Bessin and Asnelles is on top of the cliff, on the west side of the harbor.\nMus\u00e9e des \u00e9paves sous-marines (Underwater Wrecks Museum), Route de Bayeux-Commes, 14520 Port-en-Bessin, \u260e +33 2 31 21 17 06.

Film archives, photos, manuscripts, documents and memorabilia.\nThe Bayeux War Cemetery is not far inland of this beach, and the Bayeaux Memorial near it commemorates soldiers with no known grave. See the cemeteries section for details.\nOmaha Beach[edit]\nUS Army 2nd Infantry Division marching up the bluff at Omaha Beach, on D+1, June 7, 1944\nPointe-du-Hoc Bomb Craters\nOmaha beach is overlooked by bluffs which rise to 150 feet (46 m) and command the beaches. These naturally strong defensive positions had been skillfully fortified with concrete gun emplacements, anti-tank guns and machine guns. In particular the guns at Pointe du Hoc were in position to be deadly, although they weren't actually firing on D-Day and it was Maisy battery that continued to fire onto both American beaches for three days. Allied bombing left these largely undamaged, and since there was no cover on the beach, this tranquil strand of beach became a killing field. Within a mile to the rear of the beach lay the fortified villages of Colleville-sur-Mer, Saint-Laurent-sur-Mer and Vierville-sur-Mer.\nThe US 1st Infantry Division had the most difficult landing of the whole Allied assault on D-Day and took around 2,000 casualties. One reason was the terrain, another that they faced the only German division on the coast which had a full complement of German troops. There were four divisions on the Cotentin Peninsula and three more defending the British and Canadian beaches to the east, but those divisions were either below strength or composed partly of Russian, Polish and other forced conscripts.\nThe Omaha Beach landing is shown in the Oscar-winning film Saving Private Ryan and, unlike much from Hollywood, the battle scenes are quite realistic. However, the landing sequences were filmed on beaches in County Wexford, Ireland, which bear little physical resemblance to the beaches in Normandy.\n1st Infantry Division Monument (Saint-Laurent-sur-Mer). A monument dedicated to the \u201cBig Red One\u201d, the US 1st Infantry Division, is on the sea front, within walking distance from the American cemetery. Other monuments in the area include the 5th Engineer Special Brigade Memorial, and plaques commemorating the American armoured vehicles that passed through here.\n49.36448-0.863661 2nd Infantry Division Monument (Saint-Laurent-sur-Mer). A monument dedicated to the US 2nd Infantry Division is on the sea front, by the German defensive bunker, Widerstandsnest 65 (WN 65), that defended the route up the Ruquet Valley to Saint-Laurent-sur-Mer.\n2nd Infantry Division Monument\nMus\u00e9e Memorial d\u2019Omaha Beach (Omaha Beach Memorial Museum), av de la Lib\u00e9ration, 14710 Saint-Laurent-sur-Mer, \u260e +33 2 31 21 97 44. This museum has a fine collection of uniforms, weapons, personal objects and vehicles. Dioramas, photos, and maps together with a film featuring veterans\u2019 testimonies explain the landings at Omaha Beach and at Pointe du Hoc. A landing ship, Sherman tank and \"Long Tom\" 155 mm gun are on display outside.\nMus\u00e9e D-Day Omaha (Omaha D-Day Museum), Route de Grandcamp-Maisy, 14710 Vierville-sur-Mer, \u260e +33 2 31 21 71 80.

Along the coastal road, 500 m from Les Moulins, is a monument on the site of the first American cemetery in Normandy on Omaha Beach. The soldiers interred there were later moved to the military cemetery at Colleville-sur-Mer. The beach's desolation makes it a powerful site to imagine soldiers battling on the sand, completely vulnerable to German artillery.\nMonument, Pointe-du-Hoc\nLa Pointe du Hoc. A rocky headland towering over the beaches, La Pointe du Hoc has become a symbol of the courage of American troops. Here, Germans had placed bunkers and artillery. The positions were bombed, shelled and then attacked by 225 US Rangers, who scaled the 35 m rock wall, besieged the bunkers, and finally took them, only to find there were no guns at all. The guns had been dismantled and hidden in an orchard inland. Only 90 rangers were still standing at the summit. Today, bomb and shell craters remain. There is a monument in memory of the 2nd Ranger Battalion, who assaulted and captured La Pointe du Hoc battery. The memorial is built on a control firing casemate where bodies of the soldiers still lie under the ruins.\nMus\u00e9e des Batteries de Maisy (Ranger Objective) (Grandcamp Maisy). This outdoor German group of artillery batteries and HQ has been preserved and is camouflaged in over 14 hectares of land close to Grandcamp Maisy. The site covered the Omaha Sector and opened fire at Omaha Beach and Pointe du Hoc on the morning of D-day. The US 29th Division as well as the 5th and 2nd Rangers attacked the site on 9 June 1944 and after heavy fighting they captured the position. It is the largest German position in the invasion area and has original field guns, Landing craft and other D-day objects on display. American Rangers monument is on the site. (updated Jun 2018)\nThere is an American cemetery near this beach; see the cemeteries section.\nUtah Beach[edit]\nUtah beach, the most westerly of the five beaches and in Manche, was attacked by the US 4th Infantry Division. Due to navigational errors, the landings all took place on the south part of the beach which happened to be less well defended. Airborne troops landed through the night to secure the invasion\u2019s western flank and to open the roads for their colleagues landing by sea at dawn. The objective was to cut the Cotentin Peninsula in two and take Cherbourg.\nDead Man's Corner Museum, 2 Village de l'Amont - 50500 Saint Come du Mont, \u260e +33 2 33 42 00 42. At the point where the 101st Airborne Division encountered the Green Devils (the German paratroopers) you can get an insight into the battle for Carentan on the site which has remained largely intact.\nMus\u00e9e Airborne (Airborne Museum), 14 rue Eisenhower - 50480 Sainte-M\u00e8re-\u00c9glise, \u260e +33 2 33 41 41 35.

On display is a Douglas C-47, a Waco glider, a Sherman tank, several artillery pieces, vehicles, equipment, many small arms, uniforms and historic objects. Film. One of the best D-Day museums to strike a balance between an extensive collection of artifacts together with explanations and context. \u00a32.85.\nStatue on a bridge in Ste-M\u00e8re-\u00c9glise\nSte M\u00e8re-Eglise. Sainte-M\u00e8re-\u00c9glise is perhaps the most famous \"D-day village\" of all. Street panels around Ste M\u00e8re-Eglise explain the operations of the US paratroopers. In the square, a parachute effigy still dangles from the church, commemorating what happened to John Steele when his parachute snagged on the spire. Inside the church is a stained glass window featuring the Virgin and child, surrounded by paratroopers. Monuments in the area include the 82nd Airborne plate, 505th Parachute regiment stele, and Sainte-M\u00e8re-\u00c9glise liberators stele.\nMus\u00e9e du D\u00e9barquement (Utah Beach Landing Museum), Ste Marie-du-Mont, (opposite the beach on the Utah site), \u260e +33 2 33 71 53 35.

Near Ste M\u00e8re-Eglise, the Azeville Battery consisted of a dozen casemates, including four blockhouses with 105mm heavy guns, 350 m of underground tunnels, underground rooms and ammunition storage. The position was held by 170 German gunners. Guided tours of the Azeville battery offers insight into the German coastal defenses and the battle that took place here.\nMus\u00e9e de la Batterie de Crisbeq (Crisbeq Gun Battery Museum), Route des Manoirs, Saint-Marcouf, \u260e +33 6 86 10 80 59. The Crisbeq Gun Battery was one of the largest German coastal artillery batteries located on Utah Beach. There are 21 blockhouses linked by more than 1 km of trenches and restored recreation rooms, hospital, and kitchens.\nMemorial de la Libert\u00e9 Retrouv\u00e9e (Freedom Museum), 18, av de la Plage, 50310 Quin\u00e9ville, \u260e +33 2 33 95 95 95. This museum recalls the French peoples daily life during the German occupation until the liberation.\nNormandy campaign[edit]\nThe successful landing was a turning point in World War II, a major step toward the defeat of Nazi Germany; after D-Day, the Allies went on to liberate all of Europe. On the Western Front, the three main participants were the US, Britain and Canada. On the Eastern Front, Russian forces continued to drive forward relentlessly as they had been doing since long before D-Day.\nD-Day (June 6) was the start of a campaign in Normandy that lasted until late August. Those interested in wartime history may wish to visit the sites of the other main battles of that campaign, described below.\nMeanwhile an attempt to assassinate Hitler on July 20, 1944 led to at least 7,000 arrests and almost 5,000 executions. Some of the plotters were senior officers and the repercussions greatly disrupted the German military. Among others, Rommel was forced into suicide.\nAround Caen[edit]\nCanadians in Caen, early July\nCaen is symbolically important as the capital of the Calvados department and the largest city in Lower Normandy, and was strategically important as the road, rail, canal and air hub of the region. The allies attacked it forcefully, and the Germans reinforced it heavily; at one point they had nine armored divisions plus infantry in and around the town. The British and Canadians fought house-to-house in Caen itself and pressed hard in nearby areas, but did not gain full control of the town and environs until mid-July. In the process, much of the city was reduced to rubble.\nThe airfield at Carpiquet, just west of Caen, was one of the first Canadian objectives after D-Day, but it was defended by an entire SS panzer division plus other troops and the Canucks were beaten back. Both sides sent reinforcements and there was heavy fighting around the town until the Allies finally took it in early July.\n49.1965-0.41392 Ardenne Abbey (Saint-Germain-la-Blanche-Herbe, between Caen and Carpiquet). Twenty Canadian prisoners were shot by Waffen SS troops in the abbey courtyard in early June; over 150 Canadian prisoners were killed during the Normandy campaign. The regimental commander, Kurt Meyer, was using the Abbey as his headquarters at the time and was later convicted of war crimes.\nCotentin Peninsula[edit]\nThe mayor of Cherbourg greets American General Collins, whose troops liberated the city\nThere was heavy fighting on the Cotentin Peninsula, west of the beaches, shortly after D-Day. The Allies urgently needed the port of Cherbourg and sent an American force to take it. Part of the Allied strategy was that the other Allies keep much of the German armor tied down around Caen to prevent them joining the battle on the penisnsula, and that plan worked, but the Americans still had a difficult fight. Terrain on the peninsula is largely unsuitable for tanks, so a lot of hard foot slogging was required.\nFour German divisions, including some armor, were cut off in that area by the American advance and Hitler, against his generals' advice, ordered them to defend the whole peninsula rather than withdrawing to strong positions around the city. They did that and made the Americans fight for every bit of ground, with heavy casualties on both sides.\nLater Hitler commanded the defenders to fight to the last man, sacrificing themselves for the Fatherland. However when the situation became hopeless, General von Schlieben fought a delaying action while his troops demolished the port, then surrendered rather than let his remaining men die pointless deaths. Cherbourg fell at the end of June; it was the first major French city liberated, and Caen the second.\nAfter Cherbourg, the Americans turned south to take Saint-L\u00f4 against stiff opposition; the town was thoroughly destroyed. Other units swept down the West side of the peninsula taking Coutances, Granville and Avranches.\nAmerican breakout[edit]\nThe American victories on the peninsula got them out into open territory more suited for tanks, and they then moved quickly in several directions.\nAmerican breakout\nBy this time nearly all German reserves had been committed in unsuccessful attempts to hold Caen and Saint-L\u00f4 and many German formations had been badly chewed up. Some German units were tied down fighting the British and Canadians, and four whole divisions had been wiped out on the peninsula. The Americans had both more tanks and far better air support than the enemy; they used these advantages to full effect in a textbook example of fast-moving armoured tactics, similar to the blitzkrieg (lightning war) with which the Germans had devastated several countries a few years earlier.\nPart of the American force swung west to take Brittany with little resistance. Other units, most of the American force plus three British amoured divisions, moved south to Nantes and Angers on the Loire and east to Le Mans and Alen\u00e7on, despite much more serious opposition.\nIn early August they took part in the battle around Falaise, and by the end of August they had liberated Paris.\nFalaise[edit]\nThe decisive battle of the Normandy campaign was fought around Falaise, some distance inland of Caen, in the first half of August.\nThe Falaise pocket\nOver 100,000 German troops were almost surrounded in the \"Falaise Pocket\". British forces by now held everything around Caen on the north side and they had taken Vire on the west, while the rapid American advance had put them on the south side. Among other German forces, the pocket had those retreating after defeats in the intense battles for Caen, Saint-L\u00f4 and Vire. The Allies hammered them from the air and with artillery, pressed in with armour and infantry, and hoped to completely surround them by closing off the only exit, the \"Falaise Gap\" on the east.\nTo close the gap the Canadians thrust south near Falaise and Americans moved north in the Argentan area. However the by-now-desperate Germans fought hard to keep the gap open and escape through it; there was more than a week of extremely heavy fighting before it was finally closed.\nFalaise is a distinctly controversial battle; two decisions by the senior generals kept the Allies from closing the gap sooner and having an even larger victory:\nPatton's Americans were ordered to stop their advance and dig in near Argentan, rather than risk over-extending their lines by continuing north to join up with the Canadians. One reason for this was that the Allies knew from the code breakers at Bletchley Park that the Germans were planning an attack near Argentan.\nThe British reserves were not sent to reinforce the Canadians who appealed urgently for them.\nThese decisions were heatedly debated at the time \u2014 Patton and the Canadian generals were furious \u2014 and even with the benefit of hindsight, experts still disagree over whether they were sensible and prudent or foolish and costly.\nThe Canadians and Poles \u2014 unassisted on the ground, though they did get plenty of air support \u2014 could neither close the gap completely nor hold against German attempts to batter their way out. They did try and got quite badly mauled; they lost more men around Falaise than they had on the beaches or in the battles around Caen. There were many panzer divisions in the pocket; at one point six of them were defending Falaise. By now all were badly damaged but they could still mount devastating thrusts against chosen targets.\nOn the German side, Hitler overruled the generals who wanted to conduct an orderly retreat early in the battle, ordering them instead to hold their ground and even mount counterattacks (the red arrows on the map). Most historians believe the generals were right, a German defeat was inevitable, and Hitler's interference only made it worse. In particular, ordering tanks withdrawn from the defense of Falaise for use in his counter-attacks cost the Germans dearly.\nDevastation near Falaise\nThe battle was utterly devastating to the countryside.\nI was conducted through it on foot, to encounter scenes that could be described only by Dante. It was literally possible to walk for hundreds of yards at a time, stepping on nothing but dead and decaying flesh. \u2014 Eisenhower\nFalaise was a major Allied victory; about 10,000 Germans were killed and 50,000 surrounded and forced to surrender; some did escape to fight on, but they lost nearly all their equipment and many were wounded. After Falaise, the Germans had no effective force west of the Seine and what troops they did have in the area were in full retreat; Paris was liberated only days later.\nOverall, the campaign in Normandy that began with D-Day and ended with Falaise was a major success for the Allies. Their losses were heavy \u2014 about 200,000 killed, missing, wounded or captured \u2014 but German losses were more than twice that. Both sides lost many tanks, guns, vehicles and other supplies, but at this stage of the war the Allies could better afford those losses.\nAfter Normandy[edit]\nAfter Normandy, Allied forces drove toward Paris from Normandy and the Pays de la Loire which the Americans had taken after breaking out of the peninsula. After Falaise, the German forces in the area were in severe disarray and the Allies still had air superiority so the advance was rapid. The German garrison in Paris surrendered on August 25.\nAmerican troops in Paris\nMeanwhile American and Free French forces, plus some British paratroopers, invaded southern France (east of Marseilles) in mid-August. Between that and the victories in the north, they soon liberated much of France.\nAfter that, the British and Americans drove through eastern France and then into central Germany, aiming for Berlin. The Canadians took the left flank, liberating coastal parts of France, then Belgium, Holland and the North Sea coast of Germany. In the last few days of the war a Canadian parachute battalion who had been among the first to land on D-Day were sent on a mad dash to take Wismar on Germany's Baltic coast, getting there just in time to prevent the Soviets from taking that region and possibly Denmark.\nAfter Falaise and the fall of Paris, the Germans regrouped and were able to put up a stiff resistance and even mount some counterattacks; the Allied advance slowed down, but it was unstoppable. Caught between the Russians on the east and the Western Allies on the west, losing on both fronts and being heavily bombed as well, Germany surrendered less than a year after D-Day, in early May 1945.\nBeautiful cemeteries overlook the sea and countryside and are essential stops along the way to understand and reflect on the human cost of the war. This was enormous; around 100,000 soldiers (about 60,000 German and 40,000 Allied) died in Normandy during the summer of 1944. There were also air, naval and civilian deaths, plus large numbers wounded or captured.\nWe list the cemeteries in two groups; the first four near the coast and the rest further inland. Order within each group is east-to-west.\nBeny-sur-Mer Canadian War Cemetery, Reviers\n49.23113-0.257763 Ranville War Cemetery, 5357 Rue du Comt\u00e9 Louis de Rohan Chabot. This cemetery has mainly men of the British 6th Airborne Division who made parachute and glider landings in the area on D-Day. There are 2,235 Commonwealth graves (the division had a Canadian battalion), plus 330 German and a few others.\n49.286-0.3094 Hermanville War Cemetery. This cemetery has 1,003 graves, mainly of British troops who fell in the first few days of the invasion.\n49.304-0.455 Beny-sur-mer Canadian War Cemetery. Just over 2,000 Canadians are buried here; nearly all of them fell during the landings or shortly after. The cemetery is near the village of Reviers, about 18 km east of Bayeux.\nAmerican Cemetery, Colleville-sur-Mer\n49.3591555-0.853161116 Normandy American Cemetery, \u260e +33 2 31 51 62 00. 09:00-18:00. Overlooking Omaha Beach, this 172.5 acre (70 hectare) cemetery contains the graves of 9,387 American soldiers. The rows of perfectly aligned headstones against the immaculate, emerald green lawn convey an unforgettable feeling of peace and tranquility. The beaches can be viewed from the bluffs above, and there is a path down to the beach. On the Walls of the Missing in a semicircular garden on the east side of the memorial are inscribed 1,557 names. Rosettes mark the names of those since recovered and identified.\n49.1755-0.2297 Banneviile-la-Campagne War Cemetery. This cemetery has 2,170 Commonwealth dead and five Poles. Most fell after the capture of Caen in mid-July.\n49.023-0.27068 Grainville-Langannerie Polish Cemetery. This is the only Polish war cemetery in France. It has the graves of 696 soldiers from the Polish armoured division who fought alongside the Canadians in Normandy; most fell in the fight around the Falaise Gap.\n49.06-0.2929 Bretteville-sur-Laize Canadian War Cemetery. This cemetery is near Falaise and has 2871 Canadians, most of whom fell in the fight to close the Falaise Gap.\n49.178-0.514310 Saint Manvieu War Cemetery. This cemetery has 1,627 Commonwealth graves and 555 German. It is near the airport at Carpiquet and has mainly men who fell in the fierce battles over that.\n49.274-0.714311 Bayeux War Cemetery. The largest British cemetery of the Second World War in France, containing the graves of over 4,400 Commonwealth soldiers, mostly British, and 500 others, mostly German. The Bayeux Memorial stands opposite the cemetery and bears the names of 1,808 Commonwealth soldiers who have no known grave. The cemetery is about a 15-minute walk from Bayeux train station. (updated Mar 2015)\n49.3428-1.026612 La Cambe German War Cemetery. This site has the graves of 23,400 German soldiers, most of whom fell in the Normandy campaign. See also the German government site.\n49.426-1.44913 Orglandes German War Cemetery. This cemetery has just over 10,000 German graves, including many who fell in the defense of the Cotentin Peninsula. German government site\nNearly all the dead in these cemeteries fell sometime between the invasion on June 6 and the end of the Falaise battle in mid-August.\nFrom this area, one might go anywhere in France or across the channel to the UK. Normandy is a major tourist area with a range of attractions, as are nearby Brittany, the Pays de la Loire, and the Channel Islands.\nOther places of possible interest to war buffs are the scenes of two Allied raids on the German-held French coast in 1942. A predominantly Canadian force attacked Dieppe, further north on the Normandy coast, and British commandos raided Saint-Nazaire, near Nantes to the south. Losses were extremely heavy in both places and arguably both raids were disasters, though the Saint-Nazaire attack did knock out an important drydock for the rest of the war. On the other hand, it is often claimed that these raids were essential preparation for D-Day, tests of German defenses that gave intelligence required for planning the invasion.\nPeople interested in earlier history can see sites associated with William IV of Normandy, who invaded England in 1066 and is known there as William the Conqueror. He was born in Falaise and is buried in Caen which was his capital; his castle is now a tourist attraction. His invasion fleet sailed from Bayeux and a museum there has a famous tapestry depicting his conquest of England.\nThis travel topic about D-Day beaches has guide status.

Fifty-one years, a Cold War with Russia, and more than 2,000 nuclear weapons tests after the Trinity test, former US President Bill Clinton had this to say while standing in front of Air Force One on the tarmac in Kansas City, Missouri:\nPRESIDENT BILL CLINTON: Today in New York, the United Nations General Assembly voted overwhelmingly to adopt the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty and open it for signature later this month. On behalf of the American people, I will have the honor to sign this historic treaty. Our signature, along with that of Russia, China, France, the United Kingdom and the vast majority of nations around the world will create an international barrier against nuclear testing as soon as we sign. With this treaty, we are on the verge of realizing a decades old dream: that no nuclear weapons will be detonated anywhere on the face of the earth.\nODEGAARD: Clinton signed the treaty, known as the CTBT, on September 24, 1996. Today, 183 of the world\u2019s 196 nation states have signed.\nYet, the \u201cold dream\u201d isn\u2019t a reality.\nSince 1996, nuclear tests have been conducted by India, Pakistan and the Democratic People\u2019s Republic of Korea aka North Korea\u2014which conducted a test as recently as September, 2016.\nA treaty is only as good as the countries who signed it, and obviously doesn\u2019t cover countries who haven\u2019t signed, so it\u2019s necessary to have a system in place to monitor nuclear weapons test activities worldwide.\nThis system is known as the International Monitoring System or IMS.\nThe IMS is run by the CTBTO Preparatory Commission. Here's a brief overview of the system.\nAUDIO CLIP: The CTBTO global alarm system spans the entire globe. Its 337 monitoring facilities are located in 89 countries on all continents and cover all oceans. The system also features an international data center in Vienna and a global satellite communications network for data transmission.\nODEGAARD: These facilities include seismic, hydroacoustic, infrasound and, most importantly for our story, 80 radionuclide monitoring stations. These stations detect radioactive particles and the noble gas xenon in the atmosphere.\nThe detectors at these stations are developed by folks you might meet on a college campus. I did.\nLILY RANJBAR: My name is Lily Ranjbar. I'm originally from Iran. I came to OSU in 2012, and did my Ph.D. here. I got my Ph.D. last year, and right now I'm a teaching faculty here at OSU. And I did my Ph.D. on radioxenon detection for nuclear weapon test monitoring here at OSU under supervision of Dr. Abi Farsoni.\nSTEVEN CZYZ: My name is Steven Czyz, I'm a Ph.D. student here. I've been here at Oregon State for three years; I'm initially from Michigan.\nABDULSALAM ALHAWSAWI: My name is Abdulsalam Alhawsawi. I go by Salam. I'm from Saudi Arabia, and I'm supposed to be defending my Ph.D. soon.\nODEGAARD NARRATION: Lily, Steven, and Salam all work on radioxenon detectors as part of Associate Professor Abi Farsoni\u2019s Radiation Detection Group.\nIn other words, they\u2019re pretty much helping save the world from nuclear annihilation.\nBut let\u2019s back up just a hair and explain what radioxenon is.\nMUSIC: Pong Delight, by Podington Bear, used with permission of a Creative Commons Attribution NonCommercial license.\nFirst, xenon is one of the noble gases, along with helium, neon, argon, krypton, and radon, on the far right column of the Periodic Table.\nLike all chemical elements, xenon has a variety of isotopes. Think of these as different forms of the same chemical element. Some of these isotopes are unstable, meaning they don\u2019t have the right ratio of protons to neutrons in their nuclei.\nWe call unstable isotopes \u201cradioactive isotopes\u201d because as they try to stabilize, or find the right balance of protons and neutrons, they emit energy, like gamma and beta particles, in the form of radiation. This is called radioactive decay.\nRadioxenon, is the term used to describe these radioactive xenon isotopes, and it\u2019s a product of nuclear fission, which is the splitting of a nucleus of a large atom like uranium or plutonium into smaller unstable nuclei. This can happen in a nuclear reactor, or in a nuclear weapons test. As these nuclei decay they transmute into different chemical elements, some of which are various isotopes of radioxenon.\nHere\u2019s Steven:\nCZYZ: So, I feel like a lot of people, they have this impression that radiation is this black box--they have no idea what it is, it's just like radiation: scary, green goop, don't want it to touch you, et cetera. But, like radiation is an extremely natural process--it happens all over the place, it's just particles, like normal particles that are unstable on a nuclear level, and so they adjust, and when they adjust, they release energy. And that energy that comes off it is radiation.\nAnd so, when we're detecting radioxenon, we're looking for specific energies. Because radioxenons, every time they adjust to become stable, they're going to release energies in a very specific way. And, because of that, if we see a certain amount of energy, then we can say, that is radioxenon.\nODEGAARD: And here\u2019s Salam, helping break it down even further.\nALHAWSAWI: So, think of radiation as, if you have a kid that is very excited, and they started playing in a room, the result--the mess they make--is that radiation. That's the signature of that kid. And once they're done - they go to sleep - this is when they're stable. This is exactly what's happening with nuclides. If they're excited, if they're in an energy-excited state, they wanna get to a stable state. They do that by releasing radiation. And any nuclide that we have, any radionuclide, is trying to go to a stable condition instead of an excited state.\nODEGAARD: OK, so I have two kids. I have a daughter who's 7, and a son who's 2, and I can tell distinctly which one made the mess.\nALHAWSAWI: Exactly.\nODEGAARD: That's awesome.\nODEGAARD: Some of these radioxenon isotopes are the direct result of nuclear weapons testing and they have very distinct signatures.\nRANJBAR: We are specifically interested in four radioxenons, which are Xenon-131m, Xenon-133m, Xenon-133, and Xenon-135, because there are a lot of radioxenons that are released, but most of them have a very short half-life and decay very fast, after a few seconds, to other stable elements, but this radioxenon, you know, stay awake and we can detect them.\nODEGAARD: The half-lives or rates of radioactive decay to a stable state for these radioxenon isotopes range from 9 hours in the case of Xenon-135 to almost 12 days in the case of Xenon-131m. In other words, they stay in an energy-excited state long enough to distribute into the atmosphere and get detected.\nMUSIC: Free Radicals, by Podington Bear, used with permission of a Creative Commons Attribution NonCommercial license.\nCZYZ: So, like, bad guys, if they want to go and test nuclear weapons, they're not going to test them above ground, because we have satellites everywhere. It's kind of hard to miss a big explosion. So, they would test it underground--we have seismic detectors and stuff all around the world, in the International Monitoring System, or IMS. We have a bunch of different types of detectors--seismic detectors, hydroacoustic detectors, infrasound detectors, and radiation detectors--so, if there's an explosion underground, these seismic detectors go off, and they're like \"oh, there's an explosion over here,\" or \"there was a disruption over here.\" Well, was it some guy blowing up a large pack of dynamite in his basement, or was it an earthquake type situation. What was that? And, in order to differentiate from these other shaking phenomena, you can use these xenons, these radioxenons, that escape and you can detect them and you can trace them back to this explosion. Like you can correlate it with wind patterns and stuff. So, let's say you've got a detection system 100 miles away--you can see from the air patterns and the amount of time the xenon would have taken to drift over there, they're like \"Oh, we're detecting this radioxenon in these quantities, it's correlated to this disruption, that was a nuclear test.\"\nODEGAARD: These radioxenons are detected through a process called beta-gamma coincidence, which is the detection of both beta energies and gamma energies at virtually the same time. Steven explains.\nCZYZ: Basically what happens is you've got this unstable nucleus, one of the four radioxenons we've talked about, and when they chill out, they release a photon, or a gamma, or an X-ray, but basically a wave, a light wave, is one kind of radiation. And they also release an electron, and so when we say we're detecting gamma energies, it's the energy of the X-rays or gamma rays that are released, and then when we say we're detecting beta energies, we're detecting the energy of that electron that comes off it. So, again, what makes radioxenon special is that those two types of radiation are released at the virtually the exact same time. So that\u2019s how we do it, and our detectors actually utilize electronics that actively discriminate these things. So, like it's not going to go off if it just detects one of those two; it has to detect both within a certain, very small window of time in order to say that is a radioxenon decay.\nODEGAARD: It\u2019s this beta-gamma coincidence that makes Steven, Lily, and Salam\u2019s detectors work. What makes their detectors unique, is that they\u2019re made of materials, and combinations of materials, that have never been used in radioxenon detectors.\nRANJBAR: My baby, or my detector, I call it TECZT, which stands for Two Element CZT Detector, or Two Element CZT Radioxenon Detection System for nuclear weapon test monitoring. And, it utilizes two CZT detectors. CZT stands for cadmium zinc telluride, which is kind of semiconductor detector, and they are very good materials for most of radiation detection purposes. We used them for the first time here at OSU to detect radioxenon. Which was very exciting, you know, first time to do this kind of stuff with CZT.\nCZYZ: So, I'm working on what I call the CASP system--CZT array of SiPMs, and a plastic scintillator.\nALHAWSAWI: So, what I'm doing is I'm using two CZT crystals, one by one, the same that Lily used, but I'm coupling them to this new detection system called PIPS box.\nMUSIC: A1 Rogue, by Podington Bear, used with permission of a Creative Commons Attribution NonCommercial license.\nODEGAARD: Don\u2019t worry, well get more detail, and a definition of those acronyms later on, but let\u2019s start with a few basics. All three detectors utilize CZT as part of the design. CZT is an alloy of cadmium telluride and zinc telluride, and can be formed into CZT crystals, or cubes. CZT is very sensitive to x-rays and gamma-rays, making it a good choice for radioxenon detection.\nLily\u2019s design, which utilizes two one-cubic centimeter CZT crystals facing each other, was the first of its kind.\nRANJBAR: I was so excited and also had a lot of problems because it was the first time I wanted to use it, and it also it was the first time that our group wanted to use this type of materials, so basically we didn't have any type of experience with these crystals and nobody knows how to use the systems, so we did a lot of research. It was very challenging, but finally we made it.\nODEGAARD: How does the crystal work, to detect this?\nRANJBAR: Basically, the process that's CZT work is that when radiation hits this type of material to produce charge carriers, we call them charge carriers- electrons and holes. And then if we could collect those electrons and turn them into a signal, we can get the signature of radioxenons. So, imagine that if we have a radioxenon interact with one of our CZT, so it produced electrons, then we just get those electrons and turn them to a signal, and process that signal, and finally we can detect radioxenon.\nODEGAARD: What kind of signal does it produce?\nRANJBAR: You know, when we get the charge, when we collect charge, we turn it into an electric voltage, and then we measure that.\nODEGAARD: Steven and Salam are building off Lily\u2019s work to improve detection capabilities.\nSteven\u2019s detector which he calls the CASP system or CZT Array of SiPMs, and a Plastic Scintillator utilizes a CZT crystal like Lily\u2019s original design but adds an array of silicon photomultipliers (or SiPMs) and a plastic scintillator to address some of the problems they discovered with Lily\u2019s original design.\nCZYZ: And so what we were seeing is when we would inject the radioxenon into the system, these CZT, one would detect the gamma just fine, and the other one would detect something coming, and this would be the electron. But what would happen is the electron would go in, and think like a ping-pong ball off a bowling ball\nthese electrons are really tiny and these CZT are ginormous, so they would go in and they would deposit some of their energy, and then they would bounce back out. What that results in is an incomplete energy deposition. So it's like, well, how do we rectify this problem?\nODEGAARD: Steven rectified the problem by combining a cylindrical plastic scintillator gas cell with a CZT crystal like Lily\u2019s. This plastic scintillator gas cell captures the electrons, or beta energy, which is bad at penetrating things. This prevents that energy from ping-ponging around the detector and creating inaccurate read-outs. The gamma energy on the other hand, passes right through the plastic and is then captured by the CZT crystal.\nCZYZ:We coupled this to silicon photomultipliers, which is a light read-out technology and that reads out the light that is generated in these scintillators when the electrons deposit their energy in there. What happens is the particle will go in and it will disrupt a bunch of molecules and these molecules will release light, like visible light, so you can use some sort of device to read out this visible light. So, that's how the SiPMs work, is they read out this visible light. And that's how we do coincidence detection with the CASP system.\nODEGAARD: In Steven\u2019s detector, one issue that arose is that even once the radioxenon gas is removed from the detector, some of the radioxenon atoms remain trapped inside the plastic walls of the cylindrical cell. These radioxenon atoms trapped inside the walls continue to release radiation, which can lead to difficulties in getting an accurate measurement.\nLearning from this, Salam is developing a detector that swaps out the plastic scintillator for silicon detectors, which won\u2019t trap the radioxenon atoms like the plastic does.\nALHAWSAWI: So, what I'm doing is I'm using two CZT crystals, one by one, the same that Lily used, but I'm coupling them to this new detection system called PIPS box. So, it's a gas cell made of two silicon detectors. You inject the gas between those two silicon detectors, so the silicons are going to detect the electrons, or betas, and then the CZTs are going to detect the gammas, or X-rays.\nODEGAARD: Because no radioxenon atoms are trapped in the silicon, Salam\u2019s detector will allow the air to be sampled more often than with Steven\u2019s detector. This is important, because the goal is to have the international monitoring stations sample the air three times per day.\nALHAWSAWI: Right now, the frequency of air sampling is 24 hours. They're trying to go down to 12 hours, trying to go down to 10, and eventually the goal is 8, because simulations show that if you sample the air every 8 hours, you get a better and a higher efficiency of detecting changes in radioxenon activities in the atmosphere.\nODEGAARD: In addition to this advantage, the detectors being developed here at Oregon State have a couple other advantages over current radioxenon detectors. Many of the detectors utilized in the International Monitoring System, use germanium as the detector material, but CZT is cheaper, and, more importantly, allows operation at room temperature. This is big, because these detection systems require constant cooling and have large power demands for operation.\nRANJBAR: So they need a lot of maintenance and money to run them. So CZT crystals, they don't need any kind of cooling systems, so they are very attractive for radioxenon purposes, and for remote monitoring stations.\nCZYZ: It's worth noting that these systems that require cooling, it's not like \"put 'em in the fridge,\" it's like you need liquid nitrogen, because they need to be cooled to like negative-a-lot of Fahrenheit, like -300 Fahrenheit or something.\nODEGAARD: In other words, CZT as the detector material, could allow the IMS to eliminate the need for cooling systems at their stations, reducing power consumption and overall simplifying station design.\nThis is important because some of the stations are very remote, like in Halley, Antarctica or Yellowknife, Canada\nThough still in the developmental stages, Lily, Steven and Salam\u2019s research into CZT detectors here at Oregon State, has the potential to help keep the world a safer place by keeping tabs on clandestine nuclear testing around the globe and helping enforce the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty.\nALHAWSAWI: So you want to make sure that the countries that have nuclear weapons are not improving their weapons, and the countries that don't have nuclear weapons are not going to make new ones, and this is one of the techniques used to make sure that people are complying with this non-test treaty.\nODEGAARD: Though he appreciates the policy implications, Steven is motivated to do this work from a scientific perspective.\nCZYZ: It's very stimulating on an academic, a scientific, a mental level, just to see how nature works on the most fundamental level. So, that's what's exciting to me, with the development of new detectors and so on, is you're really getting into the nitty-gritty fundamental physics, and taking advantage of it. It's very, very exciting to me to do stuff like that.\nODEGAARD: Roughly translated, Jornada del Muerto means \u201cjourney of death.\u201d Though we\u2019re all on this journey at one pace or another, the Trinity test in 1945 unlocked the door to nuclear weapons and the possibility of more of us than ever before facing the blinding flash of light.\nSpeaking in a TV documentary about the Trinity test, Dr. J. Robert Oppenheimer, one of the lead physicists on the project, said this.\nJ. ROBERT OPPENHEIMER: We knew the world would not be the same. A few people laughed. A few people cried. Most people were silent. I remembered the line from the Hindu scripture, the Bhagavad Gita. Vishnu is trying to persuade the prince that he should do his duty, and to impress him, takes on his multi-armed form and says: \u201cNow I am become death, destroyer of worlds.\u201d I suppose we all thought that one way or another.\nODEGAARD: Lily grew up witnessing death and destruction. Though it wasn\u2019t nuclear weapons related, the horror of warfare, propelled her to use her scientific skills for peaceful purposes in preventing the use of this \u201cdestroyer of worlds.\u201d We\u2019ll let her have the last word.\nRANJBAR: I grew up in Iran, and when I was a child, I saw war in my country. I spent most of my childhood during war, and I still remember those days clearly, how tough was those days. I don't want any other children around the world to see those kind of things that I saw, those kinds of things that I felt. That's why I came to this field, and I want to really help all children around the world, and all people, too, to have a better life, to feel safer and promote peace all around the globe. It doesn't matter if that kid is from the US or that kid is from Middle East or that kid is from even North Korea. I want all children around the world, and all people, feel safer.\nODEGAARD: This episode was produced by myself, Jens Odegaard, along with Rachel Robertson and Miriah Reddington.

And we\u2019ll meet Associate Professor Katharine Hunter-Zaworski who, for more than three decades, has been fighting to remove barriers and improve access to transportation for people with disabilities.\nBy observing crashes, researchers can make recommendations on how to prevent them and ultimately make roads safer for more users. Crashes, however, are difficult to predict and to observe. In part two, we tour the Driving and Bicycling Simulator where Associate Professor David Hurwitz conducts experiments on right-hook crashes in a virtual environment.\nAccessible Lavatories Working Group\nOregon State's Driving and Bicycling Simulator Facilities\n[Interior of commercial airliner, chimes, flight attendant announcement]\nSTEVE FRANDZEL: You\u2019re passing through 10,000 feet. Before the flight attendants role out their carts & block the aisle, you head to the lavatory. The tiny compartment is as cramped as ever \u2013 not even enough room to bend over the tiny basin to splash your face. At least it\u2019s still clean. Then, back to your seat to settle in for the rest of the three-hour flight.\n[beverage bottle being opened]\nMost of us take this routine hassle of air travel for granted. But it could be worse, much worse. What if there was no onboard bathroom? At all. And you don\u2019t land for hours. It sounds like a nightmare, but that\u2019s effectively what people in wheelchairs face, because many lavatories are far too small to accommodate them. Those still bold enough to fly under such circumstances may take extraordinary measures.\nKATHARINE HUNTER-ZAWORSKI: Because the lavatories are not accessible, they can\u2019t use them, so before they fly they usually have to stop eating and drinking 24 hours ahead of flying. They can\u2019t drink at all during the time their flying. They put themselves at physical risk because of the precautions they have to take prior to a trip.\nFRANDZEL: That\u2019s Katharine Hunter-Zaworski, an associate professor of civil engineering and an internationally recognized rehabilitation engineer and transportation engineer. She\u2019s worked for more than three decades to remove barriers and improve access to transportation for people with disabilities. I\u2019m Steve Frandzel, and in this episode of Engineering Out Loud, which we\u2019ve called By Air and by Land, you\u2019ll get a feel for the extreme challenges of air travel for people with disabilities and how Hunter-Zaworski and others are fighting to make it easier. And in Part 2, Johanna Carson will talk to associate professor David Hurwitz, who has big plans to make our roads safer for bicyclists and drivers. Here\u2019s Hunter-Zaworski again\nHUNTER-ZAWORSKI: Rehabilitation engineering is a very broad field that is the development and deployment of assistive technology for people with disabilities \u2013 technology to enable people to live full and independent lives. In the course of my practice of rehabilitation engineering I was exposed to the needs of transportation, and I realized that accessible transportation is essential for independence. Accessible transportation enables people to get an education, to go to work, to live independently, and really to have full inclusion.\nFRANDZEL: Despite notable progress on the ground, the skies remain a daunting place for travelers with disabilities. The 1986 Air Carrier Access Act, which requires airlines to accommodate the needs of passengers with disabilities, mandates accessible lavatories on twin-aisle aircraft. But it doesn\u2019t cover single-aisle planes, which dominate domestic routes. And oddly, the Act doesn\u2019t even define what constitutes an accessible lavatory.\nHUNTER-ZAWORSKI: I\u2019ve been frustrated for a number of years because there really were no parameters to specify what is an accessible lavatory. Even if you fly on a twin aisle aircraft and you see the little sticker that says Accessible lav, there\u2019s no guarantee that it\u2019s accessible, because there\u2019s no provisions.\nFRANDZEL: Another strategy travelers use to cope with inaccessible lavatories is booking multiple short flights instead of one long one.\nHUNTER-ZAWORSKI: Depending on the length of the trip, but sometimes people will do a stopover so they can use the lavatory. So instead of taking a six-hour nonstop, they will choose to break it up into two pieces \u2013 two three-hour flights, and go through all the process of boarding and unboarding just to avoid having to be dehydrated and stop eating and all those sorts of things.\nFRANDZEL: Other parts of their trip can be downright dangerous.\nHUNTER-ZAWORSKI: So the major barrier for people in wheelchairs is getting on and off the aircraft safely. They are transferred from their personal wheelchair to a boarding chair, they board the aircraft and then they\u2019re transferred from the boarding chair onto the aircraft seat. If in flight they need to use the restroom\u2026\nFRANDZEL: \u2026 assuming of course it\u2019s even accessible \u2026\nHUNTER-ZAWORSKI: \u2026they would be transferred to the onboard wheelchair and taken back to the lavatory. So everyone of those transfers is hazardous and can bring around injury. The risk to the person is that of being dropped or having their rear end hit something.\nFRANDZEL: One man reported that his wife broke her arm during such an assisted transfer.\nHUNTER-ZAWORSKI: We\u2019re party to information that that\u2019s a pretty minor injury from some of the things that we\u2019ve seen.\nFRANDZEL: Onboard wheelchairs supplied by airlines also leave a lot to be desired.\nHUNTER-ZAWORSKI: So airlines want them to be as small as possible and as light as possible. And the problem with that is that some of these chairs that are very small and very light, they don\u2019t provide any support for the person that\u2019s in the chair, or they\u2019re very low. And the surface of that chair is hard, so when you transfer a person from an airline seat to that hard surface, you have the likelihood of soft tissue damage.\n[MUSIC: Maxim Kornyshev, Time: Disabled, used with permissions of a Creative Commons license ]\nFRANDZEL: Hunter-Zaworski\u2019s first foray into accessible transportation began on the ground in Canada in the early 80s when she helped to plan Skytrain, Vancouver\u2019s ambitious and highly accessible metropolitan transportation system.\nHUNTER-ZAWORSKI: Skytrain was a little desperate, because they had been ordered by the provincial government to be barrier free, or to be accessible. But they came to me and said do you think you could help us, and they said I think it will take you about six weeks, and I said Well, let\u2019s try. Six weeks morphed into six years \u2013 really morphed into 30 years of ongoing work. So there was a commitment from the very top to make this work, to make this accessible, and that made a huge difference. So there was an attitude from the outset that this was going to be barrier free, no matter what the cost, and it was going to work.\nFRANDZEL: And it did. Skytrain is still considered among the most highly accessible transportation systems in North America, integrating light rail, busses, and even ferries.\n[announcement of approaching Skytrain station]\nHUNTER-ZAWORSKI: You have a completely seamless transportation system. You can go anywhere. The busses are accessible, it\u2019s just a very easy city to get around in if you happen to be a person that uses a wheelchair.\nFRANDZEL: Hunter-Zaworski turned her attention to the sky in 1991 when she was appointed to a federal advisory committee that examined lavatory accessibility on single-aisle aircraft. Unfortunately, the findings were shelved.\n[airplane toilet flushing]\nJump to the summer of 2016. Hunter-Zaworski was appointed to yet another advisory committee on accessible air transportation convened by the U.S. Department of Transportation. She co-chaired the Accessible Lavatories Working Group.\nHUNTER-ZAWORSKI: We are starting again many years later to try to move the needle on accessibility on single-aisle aircraft.\nFRANDZEL: The 26-member committee was made up of airline industry representatives and disability rights advocates. Hunter-Zaworski found herself in the middle trying to pull the divergent factions toward consensus. It wouldn\u2019t be easy, but this time she would not come up empty.\nHUNTER-ZAWORSKI: Real estate on aircraft is the most expensive real estate in the world. And on single aisles it is probably the most expensive real estate. And to put that in context, an aircraft seat, that last one at the back of the aircraft that\u2019s really uncomfortable and right by the potty, is about a million, a million and a half dollars a year to the airlines. So they are very very reluctant to give up any real estate, particularly for such things as accessible rest rooms.\nFRANDZEL: As the only academic on the committee, Hunter-Zaworski found herself in an interesting position as an intermediary.\nHUNTER-ZAWORSKI: It was a very challenging to increase understanding on both sides. So to help the advocates come to an understanding of the challenges of design on an aircraft, and at the same time working with the industry and the manufacturers to realize the frustration on the part of the advocates who\u2019ve been waiting for 30 years to be able to have an accessible lav on a single aisle aircraft.\n[MUSIC: Kevin MacLeod, Decisions, used with permissions of a Creative Commons license]\nI said we want an accessible lav for a 95th percentile male and at the end of the day we got what we asked for.\nFRANDZEL: A 95th percentile male is about 6\u20191\u201d, 210 pounds. Hunter-Zaworski hopes that the new rules take effect within a year. They don\u2019t need congressional approval. Once they\u2019re rolled out, airlines will have to remove accessibility labels from lavatories that don\u2019t meet the new regulations. Over the long term, they\u2019ll have a greater impact, and in 20 years, all new aircraft \u2013 that means new designs \u2013 will have to have an accessible lav on it. For much of her career, Hunter-Zaworski has worked closely with aircraft manufacturers on the design of accessible lavatories for single-aisle aircraft. When making the rounds, she\u2019s often accompanied by her loyal assistant, Ted, who has suffered numerous injuries, including a broken neck, in the line of duty. But he\u2019s a tough guy, he never complains, and he never files workers comp.\nHUNTER-ZAWORSKI: Ted! Ted is our crash test dummy. He\u2019s a 50th percentile male, he ways 170 pounds, he\u2019s bright orange, he\u2019s an anthropomorphic test dummy, so his weight is distributed appropriately. He\u2019s rigid, he\u2019s stiff, so he in some ways mimics somebody with a high level of spasticity. He can be very difficult to load back into a wheelchair when he\u2019s fallen out of a wheelchair. And he\u2019s broken his neck multiple times.\nFRANDZEL: Why name him ted? That\u2019s simple.\nHUNTER-ZAWORSKI: Well, he is a transportation engineering dummy. He\u2019s really been a great tool to educate people on the needs of people with disabilities. He spent a month at Boeing and the engineers came back and said \u201cYou know, we learned a lot from having Ted stay here for a month,\u201d and I thought they would. They learned how hard is was to do transfers. He did go on a field trip with me this summer, and people learned a huge amount about boarding \u2013 getting him on and off aircraft. He was not popular, and they realized how hard it was to move somebody on and off an aircraft.\nFRANDZEL: Popular or not, people remember Ted.\nHUNTER-ZAWORSKI: So I have to be very careful to warn people ahead of time. One time we didn\u2019t. We were up in Seattle, my husband and I. Ted was in the back seat of a car and we did valet parking because it was easy. And the poor person that drove our car up in the morning was a white as a sheet, and we\u2019d forgotten to tell him about the fact that Ted was sitting in the back seat.\nFRANDZEL: There\u2019s still much work ahead for Hunter-Zaworski and Ted. Progress has been halting, but it is has come. A glimpse into a more heartening future is flying on some newer single-aisle airplanes. One design consists of two adjacent lavatories that merge to form a single larger compartment big enough to fit a wheelchair, its occupant and a companion, thus qualifying as truly accessible \u2013 though Hunter-Zaworski really prefers the term inclusive.\nHUNTER-ZAWORSKI: Accessible often just means something for a person with a disability. I like to broaden it and think about let\u2019s be inclusive. So this was a conversation I had with Boeing early on in the design of the Dreamliner. I said if we just call it a handicapped or accessible lav, no one is going to buy it. But I said if you call it an inclusive lav, generally people will be much more interested, and by that I mean it accommodates families with small children, it accommodates somebody who is obese, and by the way it also accommodates somebody who uses the onboard wheelchair. When you start thinking about people, many many many people travel with small children, and they need to use the lavatory. And having just a little bit more room makes a world of difference.\n[airliner taking off]\nFRANDZEL : Recline your seat backs and settle in for Part 2, where we\u2019ll look into innovative plans to make our roads safer for everyone.\n[car tires squealing, car crashing]\nJOHANNA CARSON: Welcome to part 2 of the podcast. I\u2019m Johanna Carson from the College of Engineering at Oregon State. Whether your mode is by car or by bike, you\u2019ve probably had close calls \u2013 or worse, navigating city streets.\nRACHEL ROBERTSON: You know what, in fact, it just happened to me today.\nCARSON: What happened?\nROBERTSON: So, I\u2019m riding my bike down King\u2019s Street on my way to campus. And I\u2019m approaching the intersection at Grant. The light is green, so cars are passing me, and as I enter the intersection a big van turns right in front of me.\nCARSON: That could have been a right-hook crash.\n[bike tire squealing, bike crashing]\nThat\u2019s scary. We are going to learn more about those later in the episode.\nROBERTSON: Okay, cool.\nCARSON: Like Rachel, many people commute by bike. In fact, bike commuting has risen 60 percent in the last decade, according to the US Census Bureau and is the highest in the West. Among large cities Portland has the highest bicycle commuting rate.\nHURWITZ: Oregon stands a bit unique-- we spend state highway dollars on bicycle and multi-modal transportation infrastructure. So, compared to many other states in the country, we bring more cyclists and pedestrians into conflict with motor vehicles. So, being situated here in Corvallis, we're well-positioned to try and make research advancements.\nCARSON: That was David Hurwitz, associate professor of transportation engineering at Oregon State, and he\u2019s working to make our roads safer and more inclusive for different modes of travel. In this segment, he\u2019ll talk about his research on reducing crashes between drivers and cyclists, or as those in the field call them, mixed-mode crashes.\n[MUSIC: John Harrison with the Wichita State University Chamber Players, Summer, used with permission of a Creative Commons license.]\nHURWITZ: One of the things that our lab's been really interested in over the last number is crash causality. And when you think about crashes as a phenomenon, they are difficult to predict, and difficult to observe. So, in order to understand the why's around what's causing certain types of crashes, we need large samples and need high-fidelity data and one method to acquire that information is in the virtual environment because we can take large subject populations that can be authentically matched to, say, the driving population of licensed drivers in the state of Oregon, and we can expose them to risky scenarios- scenarios that would potentially cause them harm in the real world, and we can understand what they're doing in the moments that lead up to a particular crash type. And in doing so, understand more about why those crashes are occurring and what we can do, as transportation professionals, to help mitigate their occurrence the real world.\nCARSON: The virtual environment David works in is the Driving and Bicycling Simulator, located on campus. Each full-scale \u2013 life size - simulator sits in its own room, where a vehicle and bicycle can navigate a simulated environment, that looks like the real world. Walking into the simulator on campus, you\u2019ll probably find the lab humming with activity as researchers conduct their experiments. Graduate student, Kayla Fleskes gave us a tour of the car simulator.\nFLESKES: So, this is our main simulator, a Ford Focus cab and we can set it up to drive in different environments that we want to drive around in.\nCARSON: Floor-to-ceiling screens, surround-sound and subtle movements of the car as you accelerate and decelerate, all contribute to making the experience feel authentic.\nFLESKES: You definitely feel like you are moving because you have these screens completely surrounding you in the front and then in both of the side mirrors there are monitors so it looks like you are driving a car as you normally would. And same with the rear projector, so if I look in my rear view mirror, it looks like I\u2019m driving along on the road and there is a vehicle following me.\nRight now I\u2019m driving on one of our generic \u2013 through one of our generic environments. So, this one is sort of a rural road that is running through maybe a small, a typical small town. I\u2019m following a couple of vehicles and there are a few that are behind me. So, those vehicles populate themselves in the environment. And in the environments that we code ourselves we can control them and have them do very specific things. So that we can run our experiments.\nCARSON: Graduate student, Dylan Horne demonstrated the bicycle simulator that can accommodate a variety of riders.\nHORNE: The bicycles are interchangeable. There is like a stationary bike trainer that the rear wheel turns. There is a sensor that is tied to that, that inputs the speed into the computer and there is another sensor that is connected to the front wheel so you get the steering of the bicycle.\nPart of what I\u2019m working on is validating the experience here on the simulator compared to the real world experience of riding a bike to try to match those up to make it more representative when we actually do run experiments.\nThe real advantage of being in a simulator like this that in the real world if there is a collision and it leads to severe injury generally for cyclists, but in this environment you don\u2019t have those same risks, so you can try new novel concepts and see how people respond to that.\nCARSON: The simulation lab is pretty fabulous, and if want to see pictures and more information on it, you can visit the episode page at engineeringoutloud.oregonstate.edu.\nNow back to the crashes that David is working to reduce.\nHURWITZ: These mixed-mode conflicts tend to be more severe than other types of crash-conflicts, in part because of the lack of safety equipment that a pedestrian or a bicyclist has access to. They're not surrounded by thousands of pounds of crash-designed vehicle systems, so they're at risk. They are what some would term vulnerable populations. So, one set of investigations looked at vehicle-bicycle conflicts and our entry point into that space was considering the right-hook crash.\nCARSON: A right-hook crash is a type of collision that occurs at an intersection, between a car and bicyclist. It can occur at any type of intersection, whether there's a traffic signal, a stop sign, or even a driveway. The \"right-hook\" describes a vehicle that is approaching that intersection, with the intention of turning right and an adjacent bicyclist is trying to simultaneously move through the intersection -- the right turning vehicle collides with the bicyclist. So, in the simulator, David ran a series of experiments on right-hook crashes.\nHURWITZ: The design of our investigation started by asking the question what are the causal factors that contribute to the occurrence of a right-hook crash? Because, if we better understand why right-hook crashes occur, we can design more effective treatments to prevent them from occurring in the future.\nSo, as we look at the crashes that occurred in that first experiment, of which there were twenty-six, we found that two-thirds of the time, the drivers simply didn't look for an adjacent bicycle before they turned, and that lack of visual search caused, or at a minimum contributed to, that crash outcome. In addition to not looking the presence of the adjacent bicyclist, approximately five percent of the time, the driver looked but didn't see. They were trying to scan the built environment for the vulnerable hazard - the adjacent bicyclist - and they fixated on that bicyclist, but cognitively, it didn't register as a bicyclist who was going to be in conflict with their forward maneuver. And then about a third of the time, the driver detected correctly the presence of the bicyclist, but believed the bicyclist would yield the right of way, that the bicyclist would slow down and stop, and let the car proceed, or the driver believed they had enough time and space to complete their maneuver before the crash conflict would occur. So, that pattern of decision-making and perception that we've defined as situational awareness gave us some understanding, but on a relatively small sample size. We only got to observe twenty-six crashes. So, we expanded our definition, and we also looked at near-misses.\nCARSON: When David and his team looked at the near-miss cases, which added another 28 observations, they saw a very similar pattern of results. Again, a whopping two-thirds of the drivers are simply not looking. Something to keep in the back of your mind when you are driving about.\nROBERTSON: Yes, uh, please look for me. I\u2019m there.\nCARSON: Yes, please look for Rachel and all the other cyclists.\nCARSON: And now, this research can have different impacts for the traveling public, such as the adoption of new guidelines on the configuration and placement of traffic control lights, and the symbols that are used \u2013 all for the purpose of increasing the safety.\nHURWITZ: In coordination with a variety of different design and operations engineers at the Oregon Department of Transportation, we considered a variety of signage treatments, pavement-marking treatments related to the continuation of the bicycle lane across the intersection. We looked at the radius of the curbs at the intersection, where the curb returns, and we also considered protected intersection orientations. So, four categories of treatments in a separate, stand-alone experiment.\nCARSON: What's a protected intersection?\nHURWITZ: So, that's an interesting question. They've also been called Dutch intersections- it's a European design that provides additional, positive separation between the motor vehiclists' turning movements and the alignment and orientation of the bicycle lane.\nCARSON: So, this is using paint to protect the bicyclist?\nHURWITZ: There's a variety of different ways to do it; so, the pavement markings are one component- there are also physical islands that can separate the car movement from the bike movement, providing additional protection, forcing a particular path for the car turning right, and realigning the position of the bicyclist. It basically moves the bicyclist forward into the field of view of the motorist, and increases\u2026well, one potential benefit of this arrangement is that it increases their visibility for a right-turning motorist. Our findings can also contribute to improved educational trainings for all road users - peds, bikes, trucks, drivers, transit riders, to help reduce negative outcomes from interacting with the built environment. So, those are two obvious immediate outcomes.\nCARSON: This episode was produced by Steve Frandzel, Rachel Robertson, and me, Johanna Carson, with additional editing by Miriah Reddington.

        "raw_content": "In recent years, science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) education research has been gaining traction and has become increasingly valued globally. This growth is supported by substantial research funding. For example, the United States provides US$7 billion annually in federal funding to STEM education, which includes US$105 million through their National Science Foundation for research to improve undergraduate STEM education.\nIn order to remain internationally competitive and better support Canada\u2019s technological aspirations, STEM programs in Canada are seeking to improve their curriculum and program delivery. This is certainly the case for engineering education, a key driver of Canadian competitiveness. Yet the absence of dedicated research funding hinders the ability to study the complex interactions between academia and industry in Canada, the success of Canadian graduates, and the impact of program redevelopment.\nDespite these funding challenges, several Canadian universities have established, or are developing, graduate programs and graduate courses in engineering education (e.g. University of Toronto, University of Manitoba and Queen\u2019s University). The majority of these Canadian researchers rely on a patchwork of foundation contracts, donors and industry to support research, and much research is done without any funding whatsoever. It is simply not possible to build engineering education research programs substantively without a consistent and sustainable funding source, so these admirable efforts have limited program development potential. Some schools have created internal funds for educational initiatives; however, these funds are typically small, and they provide little opportunity to learn about how to properly conduct or sustain educational research. Small internal grants also tend to confine knowledge locally and thus limit how widely this knowledge is shared. Most critically, this dearth of funding implies that engineering education research is simply not valued or needed, when in fact the exact opposite is the case, if Canada is to strengthen its world class engineering faculties so as to sustain its global leadership in engineering and a strong economy.\nA significant gap exists in Canada's research funding ecosystem. The federal government needs to create a dedicated program of funding to support post-secondary STEM education research.\nThis research funding gap is, in part, a result of a lack of coordination between the research granting councils.\nSocial Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC) funding does exist for research on STEM education at the primary and secondary school levels, but primarily for researchers in social science and humanities.\nNatural Sciences and Engineering Research Council (NSERC) does not have adjudication committees addressing disciplinary educational research, making it challenging for engineering faculty to obtain funding to study education in their own fields (e.g. for an engineering professor to study the way to improve engineering education in their own classroom). Thus the research funding gap falls between NSERC and SSHRC\u2019s mandates and could be addressed through better coordination between these research granting councils.\nEngineers Canada is currently developing a national position statement on Engineering Education Research Funding that will outline the desired next steps from the federal government. The national position statement will be publicly available in Fall 2017.\nEngineers Canada will continue to work with the federal government on this issue.",

        "raw_content": "\"This post is part of the Empowering the Goddess Within Blog Tour hosted by www.BraveHealer.com! To read more entries and potentially win a fun prize, visit the tour page HERE, between September 9th and September 19th!\"\nI\u2019ve been on this journey of personal development for about 2 years now and it\u2019s increased within the last 6 months. It hasn\u2019t been easy, but it\u2019s definitely been worth it. Personal development much like losing weight doesn\u2019t happen overnight when done in a healthy way. Why? Because just like you didn\u2019t gain those 5, 10, 20 extra pounds overnight, neither did you develop the beliefs, habits, and character you\u2019ve got today overnight.\nWell the past 5 weeks has truly been a turning point in my personal development. It all started with me making the realization that I needed to create a morning routine. That jumping out of bed at the last possible second and starting my day probably isn\u2019t the best thing to do for my mind, body, or spirit. But just like with most changes I didn\u2019t act on it, simply thought about it. I KNOW I\u2019m not the only one that\u2019s done that. So, I kept it to myself and kept doing what I\u2019ve always been doing, all while wanting something different. CRAZY INSANE, RIGHT?\nWell God has a way of continuing to show up with the same message until you get it. So, what happened, I rekindled with an amazing man and we one day we were talking and shares something with me. He tells me that he too has been doing some reading and watching videos and the one thing he\u2019s found that all successful people have in common is\u2026.. YEP you guessed it\u2026..\nA MORNING ROUTINE!!\nSo we began getting up with him\u2026..as a part of my new morning routine I have been spending a lot of time watching new videos. And one morning I was on the Mindvalley and was introduced to Marisa Peer. I watched several of her A-Fest talks and today I watched one titled \u201cThe Biggest Disease Affecting Humanity: \u201cI\u2019m Not Enough\u201d by Marisa Peer. (here\u2019s the link to watch, I highly recommend it. http://bit.ly/mpenough)\nI agreed fully with everything that she shared in this talk. I even thought about how the number one aliment of many entrepreneurs is Imposter Syndrome and that at the root of that is \u201cI\u2019m Not Enough\u201d. As a Creative Brand Strategist, I see this play out in a LOT of the Heart-centered and Mission-driven Entrepreneurs that I encounter; from clients to colleagues. I truly believe that the remedy to imposter syndrome is to own your WHOLE story, not only the written part of the past, but also the unwritten part that you're co-creating for the future. And that starts with telling yourself the truth as Marisa teaches\u2026 I AM ENOUGH!\nI also had a conversation with another friend an AMAZING woman and great at what she does. Lisseth Wertz the CEO of Path To Yourself is a Quantum Leap Coach who guides awaken women in the art of conscious manifestation. She\u2019s amazingly gifted. She taught me one fabulous truth about owning our story. We must decide are we here to keep wearing the story or are we here to shed light on the story. I\u2019m going to let that sit with you for a moment\u2026.\n\"We must decide are we here to keep WEARING the story or are we here to SHED LIGHT on the story.\" ~ Lisseth Wertz\nImmediately I thought of an old smelly coat (of course I would thing fashion\u2026lol). That coat may have gotten you through some really tough weather and kept you warm, but know you have the means to have more would you pass an opportunity at a new coat to keep wearing that old and smelly one? Or would you gladly take the new coat and simply remember the goodness and the lessons that your old coat told you and share those lessons with others?\nIt\u2019s from this place that you can stand in power and own your past and take responsibility for your future and live out your present. Forgive yourself and make the decision from this day forward to always choose the truth of the Divine. And what is that truth?\nThat you ARE ENOUGH and your voice is NECESSARY! Stop worrying about others are doing and even what they aren\u2019t doing and focus on what you\u2019re here to do\u2026. and then DO THAT! I\u2019ll tell you this, getting to this place is so freeing for me. I know that I have more work to do within myself, but I\u2019m happy with the progress I\u2019m making. I under my mission as well as my purpose and I honor it. I\u2019ll share my story and I\u2019ll share it often so that one of you or many of you will get the courage or the conviction to share your own.\nEspecially in this current state of affairs around the world it\u2019s not a time for your voice to fall silent. It\u2019s not a time for you to not want to support your sister as she finds her voice. I personally have never understood or believed in the old saying \u201cDo as I say not as I do\u201d. So, I hope that in sharing this time of growth that I\u2019ve been experiencing will be you seeing me DOING as well as SAYING and be the spark that causes you to move as well.\nSimply discovering your voice, or rediscovering it for that matter means nothing if you don\u2019t use it. Use it to first speak greatness into yourself Empress and then speak to the Empress of those women around you. And not everyone was created to be an Empress, but whether resonate with being a Queen, Countess, Duchess, whatever your voice is necessary. Someone is waiting on you to tell your story so that they may have the road-map to their own destiny, why are you holding up their journey?\nWhen you get to the place of truly want to create impact in your community and globally you will realize that it's not about you. It's truly about those that will be touched and transformed by your work. It's in that moment that you understand and come to a place of knowing that YOUR voice is enough! YOUR mission is important! YOUR purpose must be carried out.\nThis is my calling in life to start a moment of women that their brands are an extension of their voice, that their books are an extension of their voice. Even their style and how they show up online is an extension of their voice. And you must use it fiercely and without fear. Lives are ACTUALLY depending on it. Let's go Empress we've got work to do!",

        "title": "CROHN\u2019s DISEASE \u2013 Ferozsons Laboratories Limited",
        "raw_content": "Crohn disease is a disorder that can cause diarrhea, belly pain, and other symptoms that affect the digestive tract. The digestive tract is the part of the body and takes in and breaks down food. It includes the mouth, the stomach, and the intestines.\nWhen it is working normally, the body's immune system kills germs and \"bad\" cells that could turn into cancer. Sometimes, instead of killing only bad cells, something goes wrong and the immune system starts to attack healthy cells. That is called an \"autoimmune response.\" It is what happens in Crohn disease. If you have Crohn disease, your body is attacking the lining of your digestive tract. This causes inflammation, which can lead to sores (ulcers) and bleeding.\nThe symptoms of Crohn disease can get better or worse at different times. But the condition cannot be cured. Luckily, there are medicines and other treatments that can improve its symptoms.\nThere is paucity of valid epidemiological studies on Irritable bowel disease from Asian countries and the results are variable. The incidence of Crohn\u2019s Disease ranges from 0.5 to 1.0 per 100000 person-years. There is no epidemiological study from Pakistan.\nRisk factors for Crohn's disease may include:\nCrohn's disease can occur at any age, but people are likely to develop the condition when they are young. Most people who develop Crohn's disease are diagnosed before they're 30 years old.\nAlthough Crohn's disease can affect any ethnic group, whites and people of Eastern European (Ashkenazi) Jewish descent have the highest risk.\nFamily history: People are at higher risk if they have a close relative, such as a parent, sibling or child, with the disease. As many as 1 in 5 people with Crohn's disease has a family member with the disease.\nCigarette smoking: Cigarette smoking is the most important controllable risk factor for developing Crohn's disease. Smoking also leads to more severe disease and a greater risk of having surgery. If you smoke, it's important to stop.\nNonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications: These include ibuprofen, naproxen sodium, diclofenac sodium and others. While they do not cause Crohn's disease, they can lead to inflammation of the bowel that makes Crohn's disease worse.\nWhere you live: If someone live in an urban area or in an industrialized country, they are more likely to develop Crohn's disease. This suggests that environmental factors, including a diet high in fat or refined foods, play a role in Crohn's disease. People living in northern climates also seem to be at greater risk.\nSigns and symptoms of Crohn disease may include the following:\nMalnutrition, vitamin deficiencies\nGeneralized fatigability\nThere are a few tests that can help diagnose Crohn disease. Doctors use X-rays or scans to look at the upper intestine and a test called \"colonoscopy\" to look at the lower intestine. During a colonoscopy, the doctor puts a thin tube into your rectum and advances it up into your colon. The tube has a camera attached to it, so the doctor can look inside your colon and the last part of your small intestine.\nThere are many different medicines that help reduce the symptoms of Crohn disease. Almost all of these medicines work by reducing inflammation and the body's immune response. Some medicines treat symptoms when they are at their worst. Other medicines help keep symptoms from starting up or coming back. Doctors sometimes also prescribe antibiotics to people with Crohn disease.\nYou might have to try a few different medicines before you find the one that works best for you.\nSurgery is helpful if medicines do not do enough to control your symptoms or if the medicines cause side effects that you can't stand. Surgery does not cure the disease, but it can help you to feel better and return to normal activities. The 2 most common types of surgery to treat Crohn disease work by:\nRemoving of the diseased part of the colon\nRe-opening parts of the colon that have become blocked\nTry eating small, frequent meals, instead of a few big ones.\nWhen patient enjoy a great restaurant meal without irritation or side effects, jot down which items you ordered.\nManage symptoms of Crohn's disease: enjoy a balanced diet and properportion control\nSmokingcan make Crohn's disease symptoms worse. Now is a good time to quit!\nEnjoy regularexercise, a healthy diet, and enough sleep. And talk to your doctor.\nIf taking antibiotics for Crohn's disease symptoms then avoid alcohol, which can worsen some side effects.\nhttps://www.uptodate.com/contents/crohn-disease-in-adults-the-basics?source=see_link\nhttp://www.jpma.org.pk/PdfDownload/7649.pdf\nhttp://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/crohns-disease/basics/definition/con-20032061",

        "raw_content": "He was visiting the country with the majestic Himalayas, little did he know when he started the trek that he would find something more beautiful than the mountains he had been hoping for. He was trekking on the rough terrains of Nepal when he found himself more lost than ever, after all he hadn\u2019t took with himself a guide being the adventurous type that he was. But luckily he found a small hut just before his stomach couldn\u2019t tolerate the hunger and he tried calling someone.\n\u201cWho is it?\u201d a lady in her late thirties said in Nepali.\n\u201cUmm, I need some help, I am very hungry. Do you understand English? English, yes?\u201d\n\u201cEnglish? Son, come here and translate, come fast.\u201d The lady called her 15-year old son.\n\u201cWhat? What?\u201d asked the son.\n\u201cI am lost, I need some food, yes? Food?\u201d the tourist asked making gestures of eating so as to make him understand.\n\u201cFood? He says he\u2019s hungry.\u201d\n\u201cOh, he must be starving from the walking, look at his sweating. Wait I will ask my daughter to make food for all of us. Tell him that food will be cooked.\u201d\n\u201cFood, coming. Cooking.\u201d Said the son.\n\u201cSunita, cook some meal for this gentleman too, we all will be eating together.\u201d The lady said to her 18-year old, beautiful yet strangely unmarried daughter. She was dressed in the tradition of the country he wanted to explore but now he was trying to explore the beauty of the femininity he had longed for. He was just 21 but he was wiser than the others his age because of which he didn\u2019t look for the superficiality of a woman\u2019s persona.\nHe had seen nothing more pure than her innocence, he had seen no one with the kind of features like her. She was the epitome of beauty in its most simple form but she was also the epitome of beauty in the most divine form. The tourist was only focusing on her as she cooked inside the dark kitchen during the late afternoon. She was not like any other girl he had seen before.\nHe was very charming himself, with the deep blue eyes like the deep ocean she had never seen before, the golden in his hair made him look like Zeus whom she hardly knew of, but as he looked at him she found him child like.\nShe felt embarrassed being watched like that, it had never happened to her before. And he was constantly staring at the lady figure in front of him trying to absorb it all. He looked at her body but not as a territory but instead with respect as it was almost completely hidden had it not been for her dress that showed a little of her fair waist that he found so irresistible.\nAs he noticed the mother, he felt the aura of a goddess that an atheist like him wouldn\u2019t believe existed, at least not in such a real form. The children respected her and loved her and she loved them more than her own life, that is what he implied from their conversations with him.\nThe food was finally ready and he was whole heartedly served the platter that is generally cooked in a Nepali home. He was looking here and there searching for a place to sit and eat, when he saw the son of the family sit on the floor and start his meal. So he understood and sat down too, but now he was waiting for the spoon and fork for it was rice, curry, vegetables and pickle which he didn\u2019t know how else to eat if not with a spoon. Then he went back to his teacher, the boy and learnt that hands were the connection media for food and the body. So he washed up his hands and started eating. He was so hungry that he ate like no one was watching, even the old lady had never seen anyone eat like that. He had finally truly understood what it meant to be hungry and to eat just the way he used to when he was a child. He was too shy to ask for a second serving but before he could think of how to ask for one, a voice uttered the words he was so happy to hear.\n\u201cWant more? Take, take. Rice? Dal? Vegetables? Pickle? Anything, how much, as much as you can, take.\u201d The son said. After all he was the only one who had mastered the language in the whole village.\nHe felt more like home in that small hut than he had in any one of his mansions or apartments, he felt more loved by people he didn\u2019t know in that place who had helped him in the time of need like saviors.\nHe found it all so beautiful as he saw the mother chase the son around for his mischief laughing while the daughter looked at them and laughed so gracefully yet freely, it was something he couldn\u2019t describe but he found it true and beautiful. The scene of the family portrait was made even more divine by the sheen of the setting Sun. They all were trying to have conversations with the tourist and even though the linguistic barrier existed, they could understand each other\u2019s gestures and signs. He had never been happier around people, and at that moment did he realize why people went to the east.\nHe was offered to sleep there as it was too late, and so he did. He fell asleep as soon as he lied on the mat on the floor. There was no mattress, but this time he didn\u2019t need one, his body was experiencing the beautiful feeling of fatigue so the lack of luxury was unnoticeable. He was very happy to have a shelter, very thankful to have received food and felt very peaceful sleeping in the beautiful silence.\nThe next morning he packed his trekking bag and was ready to depart from his new found home, when they gave him a piece of silk cloth of a very sweet cream color as a memento. The tourist didn\u2019t only take the cloth as a souvenir but also their love and his own happiness as a forever lasting memory which changed his perception towards life in the entirety of all his journeys. He had found himself amidst the gods of Himalayas. The tourist found his home there and was longer a tourist in his own.",

        "raw_content": "Are You Providing FMLA to Ineligible Employees?\nJune 12, 2018 | Angela Snyder, Esq.\nI have many multi-state clients who like to provide the same benefits to all of their employees, across all locations. In some cases, this may mean providing FMLA to employees in a location with less than 50 employees within a 75 mile radius \u2013 employees who are not actually eligible for FMLA under the law.\nAs a reminder, to be eligible for FMLA the employee must have been employed with the employer for a year and worked at least 1250 hours within the last 12 months. The employee must also work at a job site with at least 50 employees within a 75 mile radius.\nRecently, a client called to ask me whether she needed to provide FMLA to an employee who worked out of a 10 person office in another state. The Company included an FMLA policy in their handbook that was given to all employees, and had allowed another employee at that location to take FMLA for purposes of parental leave a year earlier. My advice to the client was to allow the employee to take FMLA, and treat him as though he was protected by all aspects of the law. We then got to work on updating the handbook language, and on drafting a memo notifying the employees in the small office of the company\u2019s change in policy related to FMLA going forward.\nIn the recent case of Reid v. Centric Consulting, LLC, a U.S. magistrate judge drives this point home, holding that an employee can bring a retaliation claim under the federal Family and Medical Leave Act even if the employer isn\u2019t covered by the statute.\nThe plaintiff in the case, took 17 weeks of medical leave after being put on a performance improvement plan. The employer labeled 12 weeks of the leave as FMLA leave, even though the company did not have 50 employees within 75 miles of the employee\u2019s job site.\nThree months after returning from leave, the employee was (allegedly) fired for performance reasons. The employee brought an FMLA retaliation claim, claiming that because the Company told him his leave was covered by FMLA, they were equitably estopped from retaliating against him.\nU.S. Magistrate Judge Judith G. Dein held \u201cthere is no First Circuit precedent to limit the application of equitable estoppel to interference claims,\u201d and \u201cthere are strong policy reasons to hold otherwise.\u201d\nThis decision is consistent with the 1st Circuit\u2019s precedent that equitable estoppel may be applied to FMLA interference claims.\nBy calling the leave FMLA, the employer is promising the employee that he/she will be given the protections of the FMLA, including protection against interference and retaliation.\nTo avoid an FMLA retaliation/interference claim, employers who are not covered by FMLA should consider the following tips:\nDon\u2019t use the DOL\u2019s FMLA forms for leaves that are not FMLA. While these forms may work well for a disability leave or personal leave for an employee not covered by FMLA, by using the forms the employer is implying that FMLA is being administered.\nDon\u2019t provide FMLA to employees who are not eligible. If you are interested in providing an FMLA-like leave to these employees, call it something else.\nPrevious Post: \u201cBan the Box\u201d is a Mandate, Not a Suggestion\nNext Post: Sexual Harassment: A Problem Even Academics Haven\u2019t Solved",

        "raw_content": "Study Predicts 1 in 5 Department Stores Will Close by 2023\nBon-Ton department store\nDepartment stores have been a staple of American life since the 19th century, but they\u2019re in an unprecedented state of flux. A new study by Coresight Research anticipates that between 1,100 and 1,200 department stores will close by 2023, reducing the 2017 total of 5,900 by a fifth.\nSome of these changes are already underway: The recent bankruptcy of Bon-Ton Stores will leave 200 locations vacant (some could find individual buyers, but liquidation sales and layoffs are already underway); Sears Holding Corp. has cut its brick-and-mortar footprint in half in the past five years, shuttering more than 200 Sears and Kmart stores in 2018 alone; and Macy\u2019s is on track to reach the 100 planned closures it announced in 2016, cutting off underperforming locations in what seems like a successful bid to improve its financial health.\nAccording to Coresight\u2019s research, the closures mean that malls will see an average of one anchor store closure by 2023, although the effects are likely to be felt most in lower-traffic regional malls, particularly if they fail to find new tenants to appeal to the modern consumer, such as grocery stores, gyms, digital-first brands and pop-ups.\nMalls will adapt to the changing landscape; however, it will take flexibility and collaboration between landlords, tenants and municipalities to work around challenges like zoning restrictions, use prohibitions within existing leases, and construction costs, analysts say.\n\u201cCompromise among the parties as to future uses and parking and suite configurations can lead to a once-again thriving center, but it takes broad recognition that the needs of replacement tenants is significantly different than previous users,\u201d said Matthew Mason, a managing director at Conway MacKenzie who assists institutional clients, lenders and private investors with distressed real estate. \u201cA move to a blended-use center is the key to future stability.\u201d",

When you say \"as quickly as she realized why she couldn't\", that would apply to everyone at the point they began to have awareness again. Bella maintained her silence for the last half, which was extraordinary, but she was hanging on by a thread and knew her body would betray her if she had to respond to Edward in any way. She at least had a reason for not crying out.\ncorona, by that I only meant that she realized very soon after coming back from the blackness that it was the morphine keeping her still. She didn't feel grateful that she couldn't scream but she figured out pretty fast why. Right after the part you posted with her describing the baby kicking her ribs apart.\n\"The fire blazed hotter and I wanted to scream. To beg for someone to kill me now, before I lived one more second in this pain. But I couldn't move my lips. The weight was still there, pressing on me.\nI realized it wasn't the darkness holding me down; it was my body. So heavy...\" \"...Why couldn't I move? Why couldn't I scream? This wasn't part of the stories.\nMy mind was unbearably clear--sharpened by the fierce pain--and I saw the answer almost as soon as I could form the questions.\nThe morphine.\"\nYes, after her spine repairs, she starts to become aware and begins to remember and then becomes grateful that she couldn't move. She also gets stronger at that point as well. Hearing Edward's voice brings him into her focus so that she even ends up counting his breaths to mark time and by doing so, I think that gives her more strength.\ncorona wrote: All of that is to highlight what Carlisle went through, which appears to be utterly unique. He was at least silent enough from the very beginning not to catch the attention of anyone in his village who was conducting a search. He may have made some noises, but not much. He maintained enough control at the beginning to actually seek out a hiding place.\nAbsolutely! Carlisle has extraordinary control, but he was the only one we know of who wasn't dying or near death already. He had a little extra \"strength\" to fight his own reactions because he knew what would happen. Similar to Bella when she does regain control. He wasn't weakened by sickness or injury, his spirit wasn't broken nor was his will to live. He kept quiet to keep from being killed and Bella to keep from tormenting Edward. We already know she would have died a thousand times to keep from hurting him.\nCan you imagine!? I want Carlisle to go with me the next time I have to go shopping or to the DMV...\nPost by Tornado \u00bb Mon Sep 24, 2012 5:05 pm\nYes, Grayce, I agree that Bella certainly seems to have some awareness all the way through. She just doubts it would be enough to hold her still if she was able to move in the beginning. However, we don't know. It would have been interesting to see how she would have behaved if she was without the morphine, but had been aware of what was happening from the first moment she was bitten. After all, because she was bitten when she was already under the influence of morphine for the birth it took her a few minutes of pain to realise what was happening. If she had been aware from the first moment that Edward had bitten her and she had to keep silent or she would upset him, even without the morphine, would she have been able to keep quiet? Probably not, but I'm not sure.\nI'm not sure we can categorically state that Carlisle is the only one who never screamed. While we are aware that going through the venom's born is a horrible torture, the only ones mentioned as actually screaming during it are Rosalie and Emmett (which was mentioned in outtakes). I'm not saying that means that the other Cullens didn't, but just that there are a lot of vampires out there, and I think it's a possibility that someone else kept silent, especially if they were aware, from the outset, that they needed to keep quiet, as Carlisle did. Granted, Carlisle does clearly have extraordinary self-control, but even SM doesn't suggest that that's his talent. Rather, compassion is his talent, and that begets his self-control, although that's more in the instance of refusing to kill humans.\nPost by corona \u00bb Tue Sep 25, 2012 10:58 am\nTornado wrote: I'm not sure we can categorically state that Carlisle is the only one who never screamed.\nI agree, we can't state that categorically, although Edward gives us a hint when he said it was a \"miracle\" that Carlisle stayed silent.\nThat suggests that Carlisle's experience is unique, at least from what Edward knows about his family and possibly a few other vamps he has read the mind of (highly unlikely topic of open discussion amongst vamps). It's also completely in line with Bella's experience, who quickly realizes that staying silent for her would be impossible for her except for the morphine.\nSo, I assume every Cullen except for Alice also screamed out.\nI have a few other theories. One is that Bella was submersed in a bath of venom injections from the beginning, which is why she was overwhelmed so quickly. Since a vampiric mind is key to having the best chance not to cry out, it is possible that while Carlisle had to spend an extra day in pain that the venom was able to vampirize much of his brain before the full onslaught throughout his entire body. That's a little weak, but the brain does get flooded with blood (and venom) first, and it is soft flesh that would seem to be the fastest to change.\nThat at least would explain how Carlisle was able to keep a thread of higher consciousness alive while Bella ended up losing herself entirely for a while.\nAnd, as everyone has said, Carlisle knew he had a need to stay quiet and at least had some understanding why he was in pain.\nOne other theory is that this is simply a little weak spot in Stephenie's story. All it would require to patch things up is to give us a little more story from Carlisle's view, but that didn't happen.\nAlso, she could have acknowledged Carlisle's self-control as supernatural, but then both Alice and Aro state Edward's is even greater, so that puts a kibosh on that unless she wants to give Edward two supernatural gifts. I know, that's apples and oranges, but it still muddied the water.\nBut, I mean, SHEESH, you would think that if Carlisle's ability to stay silent is beyond Edward's (and Bella's) own comprehension, and the man has developed and trained an immunity to the temptation of blood that is also unique, that Stephenie would just give it up for the good doctor. That's not so difficult.\nWell, maybe she sees the rest of the Cullens eventually developing their resistance along those lines, given time, so I guess I have to consider that.\nPost by Tornado \u00bb Tue Sep 25, 2012 5:06 pm\nSM has acknowledged that compassion is Carlisle's gift, and that it does border on super-power. I guess his self-control, even as a human, could have been born out of his compassion, perhaps he even developed a stronger dimension to his self-control because of his compassion, which led to him being able to master the pain.\nI don't think it's a weak spot in SM's story, because everyone is different. After all, as you pointed out, it seems Alice was silent for her transformation too, because of the shock treatments, so it's not even unique to Carlisle. Different people's personalities and experiences lead them to respond to things in different ways. Is screaming the norm? I'm sure. But I think it's highly likely that vampires other than Carlisle and Alice did not scream, although I think it would be a very small number.\nPost by corona \u00bb Thu Sep 27, 2012 5:05 pm\nTornado, I know, it's a little confusing to me, his almost-talent is his compassion that helps fuel his self-control. That seemed to me to be most related to his obstinately training himself to become immune to temptation. Compassion provides the motivation, and self-control provides the ability to actually achieve that goal. They do seem to be two different facets of him that often hinge on each other, nut sometimes are demonstrated all on their own.\nThe self-control related to staying quiet was a little different since that was pure iron will motivated by self-preservation. Afterwards, compassion keeps him away from people and self-control enables him to go without feeding for months until he is finally broken and attacks that passing deer.\nMaybe this is the way to see the difference in the self-control issue between Carlisle and Edward, and how Carlisle often seems to be the master but where Aro (and Alice) says Edward's is greater. Edward's self-control CAN be even greater than Carlisle's, but he has to be properly motivated first, and he has to have a reason other than himself.\nI couldn't agree more. Edward never practiced medicine professionally because he couldn't handle the blood like Carlisle, but was that simply because he underrated his self control? After all, as he himself points out after the Meadow scene, \"I didn't know if I was strong enough\". It wasn't until after he himself realised he was strong enough that the danger was gone. I'm sure he could practice medicine now because, as MS tells us (invisible ink), even fresh and exposed, no blood is ever going to be as tempting to him as Bella's was. I wonder if that's what he does.\nPost by corona \u00bb Mon Oct 01, 2012 4:21 pm\nTornado, that was my understanding as well. I believe he underrates his self-control because he feels unworthy and doesn't trust himself.\nAlice's assessment is a personal judgment, I guess, based on her knowledge of Edward and Carlisle.\nAro's assessment is a little more interesting. Having experienced both Edward's and Carlisle's memories, I have a feeling that he must have compared Carlisle's initial months of self-denial followed by that first mindless animal attack with Edward's experience in that biology class. It seems he considered Edward's temptation the greater one.\nAnd, yes, I do believe Stephenie sees Edward eventually gaining control of his temptation to the point where it equals Carlisle's immunity. And, likely Bella and other as well, eventually, although Jasper will probably be last.\nPerhaps she considers this the gift for years of self-denial, and didn't want this to be something exclusively available to Carlisle, which it would be if it was considered truly a supernatural talent.\nBella's self-control, I would say, is a little different. Carlisle's and Edward's seem to be greater as far as raw iron willpower. Bella's seems to be based more on her ability to focus and control the direction of her mind, as if she already had decades of experience. This allows her to avoid temptation by negating it, to some degree, rather than wrestling with it like Edward would. I know, she is amazing with Charlie, but I did find it interesting that she needed to hold Renesmee and was able to endure by focusing on her.\nPost by Tornado \u00bb Mon Oct 01, 2012 5:00 pm\nI think Bella's is also a sign of her preparation. She was ready for the temptation, but none of the others were expecting it, so they had no chance to prepare and had to learn 'on the job', so to speak. This helped Bella a great deal. Certainly, in this regard, Carlisle's strength would be the greatest, because he resisted from the start with no help from anyone at all.\nBut it does seem that the more time spent as a veggie vampire, the better you get at it. Look at the Denali sisters. The inference is that they've been vegetarians for longer than Carlisle, and they have sex with random humans and, as far as we know, never slip up. So it's probably logical that Edward will be the next to gain the same self control as Carlisle.\nRosalie's control is interesting, though. She had never killed anyone for her thirst, and managed to murder seven men without drinking their blood when she was (probably) still a relatively young vampire. So I think her stubbornness and desire to remain as human as possible stood her in good stead when it came to self control, although it would be interesting to see what she'd do if she encountered a 'singer'.\nPost by corona \u00bb Wed Oct 03, 2012 11:20 am\nTornado, Rosalie is very interesting. I didn't mention her because I was ranking on her recently here.\nTo me, she's sort of the opposite of Edward. It's difficult to put into words. Edward seems to me to have internalized his nature far more than Rosalie. More torture for him, but he seems to deal with his vampirism. He doesn't excuse himself. It's easy to say Rosalie's self-control is based on vanity, because so much is, but I think that works here too. Rosalie seems more to think she is just better. The vampirism is more external to her, something that was visited on her by Carlisle. She likes to pretend she is human, more than anyone else. She hates Bella for discovering the secret. I'm not saying she doesn't value human life itself, but killing and feeding is pure vampire.\nI guess it comes down to Edward wrestles with temptation, and Rosalie wrestles with the very nature itself. Both methods work, but Edward is at a higher level.\nI think when Bella arrives, Rosalie has to deal with her vampirism like Edward always has, and she hates that. I'm thinking also about that stare of pure venom in the lunchroom when Bella finally knows what they are and is looking at them.\nOne practical effect, I think, is that Edward is better prepared by constantly wrestling with his tempatations. Roslie's self-control is very effective, but she won't get to the next level until she faces who she really is.\nBut you know what? I don't think Rosalie was really ready for that until now. She has that penchant for blaming others. If she had internalized her nature the way that Edward had, she might have simply gone off the deep end and become a red-eye, and not come back the way the Edward had.\nBTW, have you seen the shot of her and Emmett in those new BD2 pics? She's actually smiling. I like that. I hadn't really thought about that, but what if Stephenie decided she really wanted the movie Rosalie to show she had changed after Nessie's birth. I like the idea of that.\nPost by Tornado \u00bb Wed Oct 03, 2012 4:49 pm\nI'm not sure I agree that Edward's problem was temptation and Rosalie's the nature of a vampire. Doesn't Edward's attitude to Bella becoming a vampire disprove that?\nAfter all, it's not primarily the thought that Bella might kill someone if she becomes a vampire that bothers Edward. It's that Bella will lose her soul, which is more to do with the nature of a vampire and the views traditionally held about vampires than about temptation. However, he is already a vampire, so what can he do about it? Nothing. He has to live on, because he has no option and he may as well, although his life is largely purposeless before Bella comes into it.\nThat's also part of the reason why he hunted humans for a while. As SM says, he decided to do that because he was sick of the burn in the his throat and, although he didn't want to end human lives, he thought killing people as monstrous as himself would be a good compromise, and he didn't think it was going to make any difference to his eternal destiny. Even when he gave up that lifestyle, it was because he was tired of ending the lives of others, not because he suddenly believed he had the possibility of an afterlife.\nSo the nature of a vampire clearly bothers him, but on a deeper level that Rosalie's. She seems mainly put out because it denied her a chance at a normal human life with children and grandchildren, etc, which is, in a way, rather shallow. Edward despairs because he believes he has lost his soul.",

Maybe some of you may find them useful as well, so I decided to share them.\nThe highlight of this pack is probably the file for \"Icarus\" since it adds a custom storyline (invented by myself) which may give you a good reason to play or at least replay the Team TNT classic with this. Support for the more or less abandoned (but still interesting) old commercial addons \"Hell to Pay\" and \"Perdition's Gate\" might also be interesting.\nMaybe I will create more later if I have some time, but for now, have fun with these!\n- All the authors of the original WADs\n- Miguel Folatelli/Alien Vendetta Team (AV dehacked)\n- BlueFireZ88 (\"Lost Episodes\" ZDoom release)\nFrom the included readme:\nFOR DOOM I\nThe Lost Episodes of Doom (1994) ......................... jptr_fix.wad\nFixes are based on BlueFireZ88's ZDoom patch released over at the ZDoom forums.\nThis file is meant to be used with the original, unaltered jptr_v40.wad (MD5: 8111F6EA0263A7FCFEE5BA3DD06C5554), but should also work with any modified version you can find online.\nOnly the first three episodes are shown to fix the display glitch with Ultimate Doom ep.4, original episode graphics are used and some fixes applied to the Doom cluster texts provided by BlueFire.

Actually my local copy is correct. This must have slipped in when I was checking the wiki for the names and checked the music list instead of the map names. I will update the pack one of these days. Thanks for finding this!\nby SiFi270 \u00bb Thu Apr 12, 2018 7:01 am\nHello, I'm back with patches for the Serenity trilogy and Slaughter Until Death/The Evil Unleashed. Both patches must be loaded with every wad in the collection in order to work properly. Features besides map names include cleaner M_EPI* graphics for the Serenity trilogy and integration of TEU's custom graphics for the Innocent Crew's wads, which previously would have required you to tamper with the Doom 1 IWAD in Dosbox.\nEdit: Fixed a typo that made E3M6's music play a map early in Evil Unleashed.\nby NightFright \u00bb Thu Jan 10, 2019 5:04 am\nFinally had the time to correct the Memento Mori II mapinfo.

He\u2019ll never feel complete security again.\u201d\nShe asked that Matthew\u2019s last name, which is different from her own, not be publicized.\nThe gunman, Christopher Harper-Mercer, barged into Matthew\u2019s classroom at Umpqua Community College on Thursday. Mercer shot three people, including professor Larry Levine. Then, he paused and turned to Matthew.\n\u201d \u2018You \u2014 with the glasses \u2014 stand up,\u2019 \u201d Matthew recalled him saying, according to his mother.\n\u201cThat\u2019s when the shooter gave him what he was told to give to police,\u201d Smith said.\nThe gunman handed Matthew an envelope containing a flash drive. Law enforcement officials said the flash drive contained the shooter\u2019s writings, which detailed his frustrations in life.\nAfter Matthew took the envelope, he was told to sit in the back of the room and watch as Mercer resumed killing his classmates, his mother said.\nThe carnage Matthew was forced to witness was devastating.\n\u201cHe doesn\u2019t know how to deal with it right now,\u201d the mother said. \u201cI don\u2019t think he can register what happened yet. It\u2019s just too much.\u201d\nSmith said she has no idea why the shooter locked eyes with her son and chose to spare him.\n\u201cI can\u2019t ask why anymore. I just have to be happy that Matthew is OK.\u201d\nBut his lack of physical wounds don\u2019t reflect the emotional turmoil Matthew will likely grapple with for the rest of his life.\n\u201cHe lived,\u201d Matthew\u2019s mother said. \u201cAnd for that, he feels guilty.\u201d\nOfficial: Gunman Went on Social Media During Bar Attack in Thousand Oaks",

They said he was taken into custody around 5:30 a.m. by New York City police.\n\"We have a lot of communications, a lot of agencies, police, [Department of Children and Families], local police,\" said Lt. Paul Cicero, Hartford police. \"We deal with a track, with Connecticut transit, everybody that we can. Obviously, we even reach into some of the social media apps [such as] Uber, Lyft and taxi companies -- so it\u2019s a lot of moving parts and it\u2019s difficult.

Maldonado was being held as a fugitive.\nMeanwhile, his 43-year-old girlfriend continued to fight for her life on Wednesday, police said. She was listed in critical but stable condition at the hospital.\nEarly Tuesday morning, the unidentified Hartford, Connecticut woman was stabbed dozens of times in a vehicle with her 6-year-old son.\nOne neighbor near the Natick Street scene in Hartford described what it looked like -- something out of a movie. She said the victim showed up at her doorstep pleading \"help me, he's trying to kill me.\"\n\"She was bleeding everywhere, asking for help,\" said one neighbor, who didn't want to be identified. \"So I told her 'give me a second.' My boyfriend went and grabbed the phone. We called 911. They said 'we\u2019ll be there in like two minutes.' That\u2019s when the police, the firemen and ambulance came.\"\nPolice said the victim suffered defensive wounds to her hands and arms, but also some critical wounds to her torso.\nMaldonado drove to Worcester, Massachusetts, where police said he ditched the car and left the boy. Worcester police said a weapon was in plain sight in the vehicle.\nHartford police said they would issue a search warrant to retrieve the vehicle and weapon.\nThe boy was in the custody of the Massachusetts Department of Children and Families.\nThe victim's family had one message for Maldonado while he was on the run.\n\"Turn yourself in,\" they said. \"You\u2019re a coward, as far as we see it.\"\nMaldonado now faces several charges, including attempted murder, kidnapping, assault and risk of injury to a minor.\nHartford police said Wednesday they were still waiting to interview him and the victim.\nKidnapped 6-year-old found unharmed after mother stabbed 30+ times\nTopics: Hartford Police Department\nHartford homeowner cited after discovery of 141 animals near Sumner and Grand Avenue\nHartford police: Arrest made after shots fired incident following dispute at Slinger bar\n\u2018It\u2019s not uncommon:\u2019 Weather conditions may be to blame for small plane crash in Hartford\nPolice: \u2018Heavily intoxicated\u2019 man enters wrong home, sleeps on dog bed with 150-pound Mastiff",

It will pay particular attention to the relationship between Chinese culture and the present-day life of the Chinese people and to the different elements of the culture which are under the present social structures, belief systems, literature, arts, customs, etc. The course aims at providing students with a deeper knowledge of Chinese culture, thus enabling them to better understand China. The course will cover the following main areas of topics: (1) the foundations of Chinese civilization: its geography, language, and history; (2) the core concepts in Chinese philosophies and religions: Confucianism, Taoism, and Buddhism; (3), literature and arts, including Chinese calligraphy, painting, Tang poetry, and classical fiction; (4) society and life, including education, the role of women, Chinese food, and traditional holidays; (5) travel and landscapes, including well-known Chinese cities, mountains, ethnic regions and customs; (6) Chinese media, culture and sports, including TV and movies, fashion, Chinese gongfu and taiji. In addition, students will be expected to participate in a buddy program beyond curriculum if they have a chance to come to Nanjing. Ideally they will be paired up: an international student with a Nanjing University student to allow students to learn firsthand about Chinese customs, culture, and language. Students will be required to complete various projects and homework assignments as well, which will encourage them to use Nanjing University and the city of Nanjing as a laboratory to apply what they learn during their stay at Nanjing University.\nChinese food is well-known throughout the world for its appearance, aroma and flavor. The uniqueness of Chinese food lies not only in its appearance and flavor, but also in its style of preparation, cooking and presentation. Chinese food culture was gradually formed in the development of Chinese society and civilization and was in turn helped shape the character and temperament of the Chinese people. As a panorama of Chinese culture, Chinese food is generally believed to be one of the best channels to know this country, its people and culture. There is a profound philosophy under Chinese food culture, and this lesson will help the learners understand why eating and drinking is of special importance to the Chinese, not only to their physical wellbeing but also to their mental health and harmony.\nGuangdong or Cantonese Cuisine3:46\nSichuan Cuisine2:58\nNorthern Cuisine5:38\n\u7a0b\u7231\u6c11\nInstitute for International Students, Nanjing University\n\u6768\u5c45\u67f3\n\u6556\u96ea\u5c97\nNow let's move to the fourth part, Northern cuisine.\nNorthern cuisine or [FOREIGN] in Chinese is a general term\nused to describe various cooking styles of North China.\nHowever, Shandong cuisine or [FOREIGN] in Chinese is sometimes\nused instead of [FOREIGN] as one of the four major types of cuisine in China.\nBecause the various cooking styles of Northern China are mainly based\non Shandong cuisine.\nIt is said that Emperor Wan Li of the Ming Dynasty loved Shandong cuisine so\nmuch that it became the foundation of Beijing cuisine.\nCharacterized by light, fresh and tender food and a clear and milky soup,\nNorthern cuisine of which Beijing cuisine is now a major category,\nis less spicy than that of Sichuan, but uses a great deal of garlic and scallions.\nIt is a robust cuisine in which food is generally\nmore simply prepared than in the South.\nSlow cooked, braised, and\nsimmered dishes are a particular feature of the Northern food.\nThe most famous food of this cuisine is the [FOREIGN].\nInfluenced by Muslim and Mongolian tastes,\nthe Northern cuisine is renowned for its mutton and lamb dishes.\nTypical is sauteed lamb with scallions.\nTraditionally, wheat is the main food in this region,\nbecause it is a major grain crop there.\nIt is the basis of the many noodles and the dumpling dishes.\nVegetables are cooked more often than they are in the South.\nSome varieties, such as cabbage, are pickled to preserve them for\nthe long Winter.\nAlthough Beijing cuisine is classified as a subdivision of Northern cuisine.\nAs a capital of China for many centuries,\nBeijing has developed its own style of cooking by absorbing and\ncombining the best features of different regional styles of the country.\nBeijing cuisine reached its present form\nin the imperial kitchens of the Qing Dynasty.\nIt is developed on the basis of the Tan family style cooking, and\nhas three main features.\nFirst, it is both sweet and\nsalty, balancing Northern and the Southern styles.\nThere is a saying that Southerners have a sweet tooth and\nthe Northerners crave salt.\nBut the Beijing dishes manage to satisfy both.\nSecondly, the dishes are well-cooked, heavy in flavor,\nas well as soft, so it is considered suitable for older people.\nThirdly, this type of cooking pays special attention\nto the natural flavors of the ingredients, so\nthat gourmet powder and other seasonings are rarely used.\nBeijing roast duck is now a world famous Chinese dish.\nIt is said that the Beijing duck raised on rice and\na spring odor from Jade the Spring Hill in Western Beijing was at the first\na Qing Dynasty tribute provided only for the imperial kitchen.\nThen a century ago, some chefs in the imperial kitchen began\nto roast the ducks over frequent peach, and wood fires.\nDucks cooked in this way were extremely delicious.\nLater, this tagony was adopted by cooks all over the city.\nAnd the Beijing roast duck has become one of the favorite dishes of\npeople both at home and abroad.\nMany people are interested in how Chinese food is cook.\nIn fact, there are several dozens of cooking methods used in Chinese cuisine.\nThe following 20 are among the most frequently used cooking\nmethods in ordinary people's homes as well as in restaurants.\nPlease look at these pictures for these 20 Cooking Methods.",

        "raw_content": "As a carrier of Chromosome 15 Duplication Syndrome, if that is indeed the case, I have more questions than I have answers to, for example:\nWere any of the 6 miscarriages I had linked to Chromosome 15 Duplication Syndrome? They were put down to my ex-husband having spina bifida occulta and high sperm morphology (i.e. abnormal sperm, up to 85% in his case). But could they have been caused by both his condition and Chromosome 15 Duplication Syndrome? I may never know the answer to this but 75% of all babies who have Chromosome 15 Duplication Syndrome are miscarried in the first 6-8 weeks of pregnancy, which is exactly when my six miscarriages occurred.\nWhat are the chances of my next baby having the same condition? The usual genetic condition ratio is that 1 in 4 will get an inherited condition, does that apply in this case?\nWas it down to anything I did wrong when I conceived? Could I have done anything to prevent it?\nEven if I have a child who doesn\u2019t have Chromosome 15 Duplication Syndrome, could they pass it on to their children if they carry it?\nThat\u2019s just a handful of the questions I have. Some of them I\u2019m sure will be answered by the genetic counselling, but I have to be prepared for the fact that they may not.\nWould I have done anything differently with my pregnancy while having Frankie? I can honestly say hand on heart no. I did everything by the book and had an uneventful pregnancy \u2013 I didn\u2019t drink at all, I don\u2019t smoke, I ate healthily, I exercised, I took my folic acid religiously and pre-natal vitamins religiously and I avoided things like soft cheeses, pate and anything with raw ingredients in it food wise just in case.\nWell, there is just one thing I would have done slightly earlier, and that\u2019s have the amniocentesis test as soon as I could. We may have known sooner, which would have put us in an awful position, but we would have known. I was offered the test but as my screening results for Downs Syndrome came back as 1 in 100,000, no further testing recommended, and as the test can cause miscarriages, my husband and I decided it was too much of a risk to have it. Next time I will definitely have the test as soon as I can, and I\u2019m sure they will look at chromosome 15 in the baby with a fine toothcomb.\nSo I guess despite all of this, my husband and I have to roll the dice and try again, no matter how hard it is. It is very scary, but if I\u2019m lucky enough to be rewarded with a Chromosome 15 Duplication Syndrome free baby that is healthy, as Carrie Bradshaw says in Sex and the City, well, that\u2019s just fabulous.\nPreviousFrankie & Chromosome 15 Duplication Syndrome \u2013 Part 1\nNextOver \u00a31000 Raised For The Cleft Lip & Palate Association Charity \u2013 We Have Exceeded Our Target!\nWelcome To The World Frankie Part 2 \u2013 29th November 2013\nA Very Inspiring Catch Up",

        "title": "Regional Companies Shouldn\u2019t Resign Their Website to Facebook \u2013 Frank's Take",
        "raw_content": "Mid-market companies should reconsider using their Facebook as their main means of delivering updates and information about their company.\nOver the last few years, many regional companies have shifted away from their traditional website in favor of utilizing their Facebook page. Many believe that more consumers are on Facebook and that it\u2019s less expensive to update and edit their content there. For a small company this model works well and makes sense. However, it may not be the correct decision for a regional or mid-market size company. So, what\u2019s wrong with this thinking? A lot actually!\nLet\u2019s dive into a few of the issues and you\u2019ll understand why this is a bad play for many regional and mid-market companies.\nFirst, are Facebook\u2019s different analysis and mining algorithms. Long gone are the days when all your followers are automatically finding your content in their news feed. Recently, if you have been paying attention, you\u2019ll have noticed that you only see the same handful (twenty or thirty) \u201cfriends\u201d posts in your feed.\nThat\u2019s due to Facebook\u2019s algorithms determining that they know what is best for you. With hundreds of millions of posts daily, Facebook is trying to convince you that they are doing you a favor by showing you only the posts Facebook thinks you care to see. Sounds great doesn\u2019t it? After all, who wants all that social noise anyway? Right? Well that sounds good but it\u2019s not completely accurate.\nForemost, Facebook is a business and their business happens to be social media. And, like all good businesses they need to make money and want to make more money every year. Completely commendable, right? I think so but here is a look into the business side of this \u201cfavor\u201d.\nThey are a social site, but they are also a media and publicity delivery vessel, just like print, radio and TV. They need to capitalize and take full advantage of all the businesses that want to access hundreds of millions of users. It\u2019s good business and makes complete sense\u2026 for them. But not necessarily for other businesses.\nWhen a company decides to utilize this format as their primary on line business format, they may be limiting their own company\u2019s exposure due to Facebook\u2019s algorithms and platform.\nSo, even though a business may have thousands or millions of followers, the likely hood that those people are seeing their messages are nearly slim to none. That is why Facebook now recommends, (which is a subtle way of saying forces you) to \u201cBoost\u201d posts which is code for \u201cpay if you want anyone to see this message.\u201d\nThe next issue businesses should consider when using this form of media as their main driver of web content is that the content that they are putting out on Facebook, belongs to Facebook, not the company. Basically, everyone is renting space from Facebook. Think of these posts like Facebook is the landlord and can dictate the rules of who can see the content and how often. And, as many people have experienced, Facebook likes to change their rules on a whim.\nCompanies need to take their social message in their own hands. I\u2019m not suggesting that you not utilize Facebook because it\u2019s a good medium, but rather use them only to the degree that you would use other social sites, such as LinkedIn, Twitter, Instagram and Pinterest.\nA company should be the master of their own message and while it\u2019s time consuming and takes time to gain traction a company needs to build, maintain and constantly improve their website. Then they need to establish a secondary means of communication with their consumers and followers. Apps, texting and email lists are three great examples, where a company can continue a conversation with as many followers as it cares to reach based on their own criteria.\nIt takes time and effort, but most companies now have an internal social and/or IT employee or department and It\u2019s well worth their time. Remember at the beginning of the article I asked who wants all that social noise?\nThe social sites by design have created most of that noise and continue to develop more ways to create noise. It\u2019s self- serving and good business for them. By doing so, they also continue to garner new ways to charge businesses to rise above that noise.\nFacebook does what\u2019s best for them and they should. Regional and mid-market companies must follow their lead and do what is best for their own company.\nPrevious Previous post: Regional Companies Need Everyone at the Table Before Final Plans are Cemented\nNext Next post: 3 (VoC) Strategies That Gain Regional Companies an Advantage",

        "raw_content": "\u2190 Frank Reads: One Day by David Nicholls\nFrank Reviews: Diary of a Mad Fat Girl by Stephanie McAfee \u2192\nYou see, for those of you not in the know, I was diagnosed in 2004 with Major Depressive Disorder, which is a pretty chronic form of depression. On top of that, I deal with anxiety issues (which largely affect my social interactions), and some strange forms of OCD, a few of which have been with me since I was a very young child.\nAll of this comes and goes and I don\u2019t want to discuss the ins and outs of it in a lot of detail. Suffice it to say that things affect me on a much deeper level than they do to most other people, and other people tend to find that frustrating.\nIn fact, I get the feeling quite frequently that aspects of my personality affected by my mental health are really frustrating to other people, especially those closest to me. What they often fail to realize is that I can\u2019t always control those things \u2014 at least not easily.\nSo I decided that the way I wanted to approach discussing Mental Health Awareness Month is to increase awareness in that realm. So often people say things like \u201cIt\u2019s all in your head,\u201d or \u201cYou just don\u2019t want to deal with things so you\u2019re not.\u201d Or they try tough love (I HATE TOUGH LOVE.) Some of those people might just be insensitive a-holes, but others really just don\u2019t have the first clue what they\u2019re up against (even though I know they mean well). So here we go: things that I\u2019m dying for you to know about it. Not going for eloquence today. This is all raw.\n*Note: This is from my perspective, but understand that in no way do I believe any of this is specific to me.\nWhat It\u2019s Like to Live With Depression\nPeople think you\u2019re making it up to get attention, so sometimes you just stop talking about how you feel about anything at all so that it won\u2019t seem that way. I don\u2019t want a pity party, thanks. I just want to be understood.\nSome people will start to avoid you or tell you that you\u2019re too sad too often, you have too many problems, you complain too much, etc., etc. Ask yourself whether you\u2019re just hoping someone will save you or not. If you don\u2019t truly need to be saved, by all means, try to take a more positive route when possible because it does help. (If you try to be better and people are still giving you a hard time, let them go.)\n\u2026It\u2019s painfully difficult and sometimes impossible to let things go. I can hang on to things for years (not always by choice) and someone is always on my case about living in the past. Sometimes I like to stay in the past because I know I wasn\u2019t always like this. And I\u2019m not even always like this now. That\u2019s the terrible part of something that\u2019s considered chronic, though. You never know when and how often you\u2019ll have to deal with it, nor to what degree.\nPeople close to you start mumbling about how you\u2019re using it as an excuse to not move on, deal with things, accept things, etc. If I\u2019m wrong, I\u2019ll tell you that I am. If I messed up, I\u2019ll apologize. Nothing about dealing with depression excuses my behavior. Ever. I\u2019ll take responsibility for myself, thanks, but understand, please, that when I\u2019m dealing with it, it absolutely affects me, what I do, and how I do it.\nSocial interaction is never going to be as easy for me as it is for most people. People tend to think I\u2019m a bitch just because I\u2019m not terribly outgoing. I\u2019m not terribly outgoing because I can never think of anything to say. I\u2019m not a great conversationalist, and someone is constantly pointing out to me how socially awkward I am. This really irritates me because the more they say it, the worse it gets. I start stammering and stuttering and get super nervous. I sound like the lovechild of Daria and Ben Stein, as I\u2019ve noted before. I feel like everything I do is being analyzed and that\u2019s uncomfortable.\nPhysical symptoms are a pain, but there they are. Headaches, backaches, a profound lack of energy. Then there are other symptoms \u2014 social withdrawal, no interest in things I typically enjoy (so frustrating!), exhaustion, a racing mind, a complete lack of focus, dwelling on things I can\u2019t change, feeling worthless, helpless, and like a total failure.\nThe timing is hard to peg down. Sometimes I know when an episode is coming on because I\u2019ll get a lot of headaches or I\u2019ll feel like someone unplugged me. I have no energy at all. When I start avoiding social interactions and backing out on plans, I\u2019m in it. Sometimes it can\u2019t be predicted at all. For example, earlier today I was laughing and joking around with my brother. I did some work, went to get a shower, and by the time I had my eye makeup on, I was crying it back off. I don\u2019t really know why I started crying. I just felt really sad all of a sudden. That sucks. It\u2019s hard to fix something when you don\u2019t know what\u2019s wrong.\nI\u2019m trying. I\u2019m trying to get on with my life and I always try to not let this affect me as much as I possibly can. Sometimes I\u2019m successful; sometimes I\u2019m not. In a heartbreaking twist, it seems that the people I care about the most are always the ones who are affected by \u201cEpisodic Renee.\u201d\nIt\u2019s nothing to be ashamed of. I don\u2019t talk about it a lot, nor with many people, but that\u2019s because I don\u2019t want to be accused of making excuses for myself (because that\u2019s only happened about 89809343 times). For the first year that I was in therapy in college, only two of my friends knew about it. It wasn\u2019t until it became clear that therapy alone was not going to be enough that I finally had to tell my parents. I just didn\u2019t want them to think it was their fault. It\u2019s no one\u2019s fault that I\u2019m like this. There\u2019s a certain stigma about people with mental health disorders, but I want something to be known.\nI am smart, funny, and nice. I\u2019m thoughtful and loyal and driven. I\u2019m responsible. I hate when people think depression means I somehow shouldn\u2019t be trusted. I\u2019m everything everyone else is. My emotional reactions are just a little bit more intense. I get really sad sometimes. I don\u2019t always know why. I feel broken.\nAnd then I snap out of it. It could be hours, days, weeks, or months. But eventually, it does let up.\nI know that this experience is not unique to me. There are so many others out there who go through the same thing. Some of them talk about it; some of them don\u2019t. But what I\u2019m trying to get at here is that we SHOULD be able to talk about it without it being considered whiny or attention-seeking. A friend who will shun you because they don\u2019t feel like dealing with you when you\u2019re down isn\u2019t really a friend. Friends don\u2019t turn their backs when you need them.\nFinal note: I recommend therapy. Even if you don\u2019t think you need it, it\u2019s really enlightening. I don\u2019t know about you, but talking to someone else (a friend or anyone) when I\u2019m going through something helps so much. If you choose a friend in lieu of therapy, just make sure you don\u2019t make your friend your therapist (inadvertently or otherwise). They don\u2019t take too well to that (and with good reason).\nOkay. Extended PSA over. Leaving you with this video of Ingrid Michaelson performing \u201cSan Francisco\u201d for two reasons: 1.) I was at this show this past Friday and it was the first time I\u2019d heard this song. It\u2019s beautiful. 2.) It\u2019s really well-suited to this post. Listen to it. The line \u201cWhen you\u2019re broken, you can\u2019t tell them what went wrong\u201d slays me.\nStay tuned for Frank\u2019s new book review next time!\nPosted in Personal\t| Tagged anxiety, depression, mental health awareness\n4 thoughts on \u201cOn a More Serious Note\u2026\u201d\npagenpoetry\nEducate educate educate! I\u2019ve been pretty lucky with the mental-health cards I\u2019ve been dealt in life, and there is nothing like standing on the side watching someone go through what you describe. (I imagine that\u2019s nothing compared to living the dream\u2026) I feel like every year that goes by, it becomes more and more acceptable to talk about and seek help for mental health issues. Reading articles like this can only further the cause- whether it\u2019s helping people to see they aren\u2019t alone in an issue, or providing some insight to those who would like to be better allies.

This is part of a campaign that analysts inside and outside the White House believe is aimed at testing the Trump administration's resolve, sources said.\n\"That was very clearly a process of the Iranians and Hezbollah and [the] Syrian regime probing and testing our limits, and testing how much we were willing to do,\" one senior Trump administration official said. \"In every case, it was a matter of them testing and probing, and us responding by defending ourselves.\"\nThese clashes were the result of pro-Syrian regime forces, including Iran and Hezbollah, \"violating a de-confliction measure that had been worked out with the Russians,\" the official said. \"The forces violated the measure.\"\nThe Trump administration has instructed U.S. forces to respond to Iranian attacks with force if necessary.\n\"What they found out very quickly,\" said the official, was \"us responding by defending ourselves. What was established was that we're determined to defend ourselves.\"\nThis defensive action is being implemented at the same time the Trump administration turns its attention to the Iranian Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC), the Islamic Republic's paramilitary force that coordinates operations in Syria and other warzones.\nTrump administration officials view the IRGC as being part of \"every malignant protrusion of the Iranian regime,\" according to one administration official, who said the White House is dually focused on choking off this force.\nThe actions by U.S. forces are part of a broader pushback against Iran, ranging from battlefield responses to diplomatic action, according to a veteran Iran policy analyst who has been briefed by the White House both on parts of the Syria strategy and on parts of an ongoing Iran policy review being conducted by the administration.\nThe Free Beacon first reported many details of the review several weeks ago, including actions by the Trump administration to potentially block the sale of U.S. commercial aircraft to Tehran.\n\"For the first time since the U.S. intervened into the Syrian conflict, American forces have been authorized to do take all measures to defend U.S. interests against Iranian provocations and aggression,\" said the source. \"This is part of a concrete strategy that has already been implemented in part, and is being bolstered every day, but very senior Trump officials. No more of watching U.S. forces get rolled in Syria, and also no more of thanking Iran after they seize our sailors in the Gulf.\nOne senior Trump administration official familiar with the Iran policy review said the White House is currently \"in the thick of it,\" evaluating a range of options to confront Iran's global terror operations.\nThe review expands far beyond the landmark nuclear deal, according to the administration officials.\n\"The tack we've taken is not to put the [Iran deal] at the center of the policy,\" one senior administration official said. \"The goals we set out focus on how to neutralize the threat the Iranian regime poses to the US and its allies in the region.\"\nU.S. official see the nuclear deal as secondary given Iran's continued terrorist operations and pursuit of illicit arms. This is why the IRGC's activities have become a source of concern in the White House.\n\"You find the IRGC in every malignant protrusion of the Iranian regime,\" the senior administration official said. \"They're in Yemen, Iraq, Syria, Hezbollah in Lebanon,\" and elsewhere.\nAs the U.S. plots its course with Iran, the Islamic Republic continues to invest in a massive military buildup that many believe has been partially funded by the economic sanctions relief granted under the former Obama administration.\nIranian military officials announced on Monday that the country will soon implement its own version of Russia's advanced S-300 missile defense system, which Tehran purchased in a controversial arms deal opposed by many Western nations.\n\"Steady work efforts are being made on Bavar 373 missile system and a number of tests have been carried out on this system, and these tests will continue until the date of delivery,\" according to Iranian military officials, who predicted the system would be perfected by March of next year.\nUpdate: This piece has been edited to clarify U.S. operations against Iran-backed forces in Syria.\nThis entry was posted in National Security and tagged Iran, ISIS, Russia, Syria.

        "raw_content": "This expedition includes 3 iconic destinations. We start with exploring North Atlantic islands of Europe. Then, crossing the Arctic Circle, we stop at Jan Mayen Island with its landscapes of breathtaking beauty and the northernmost active volcano on the planet \u2013 the Beerenberg. The last port of call is Spitsbergen, which is a must for those who want to see the Arctic in all its splendor.\nDay 1: Embarkation in Leith (Edinburgh), United Kingdom\nDay 2: Kirkwall, Orkney Islands\nDay 3: Fair Isle, Shetland Islands\nDay 4: Torshavn, Faroe Islands, Denmark\nDay 6: Jan Mayen\nDay 12: Disembarkation in Longyearbyen, Spitsbergen\nWelcome to Edinburgh, the capital of Scotland and starting point of our expedition. The famous Castle rising above the city gives immediate evidence of Edinburgh\u2019s rich history. While the Town area boasts medieval architecture, the New Town accommodates newer 18th century buildings. Each corner of Edinburgh\u2019s old streets opens beautiful unexpected vistas of green hills or a blue flash of distant sea.\nIn the afternoon, we welcome you aboard the luxury expedition ship M/V Sea Spirit. Explore the ship and get comfortable in your home away from home for the extraordinary adventure to come.\nKirkwall is a small, quiet town, with a gentle pace of life. The town is the capital of the remote and amazing Orkney archipelago. Kirkwall is first mentioned in Orkneyinga saga in 1046. Such a long history has left a rich heritage that we explore today. The most famous are the sandstone St Magnus Cathedral, considered the finest medieval building in the north of Scotland, the Bishop\u2019s Palace and the Earl\u2019s Palace.\nIncluded tour \u201cAncient treasures of Orkney with St Magnus Cathedral.\u201d\nDepart Kirkwall and head into the west of Mainland, Orkney\u2019s largest island. This tour passes through the gentle rolling landscape of Orkney and into the Neolithic Heartland of Orkney; an area designated as a World Heritage Site due to its wealth of pre-historic archaeology. Passing the Standing Stones of Stenness, we will stop at the Ring of Brodgar; a huge ceremonial circle of stones dating back almost 5000 years. We then continue on to the 5000-year-old village of Skara Brae, beautifully interpreted in the visitor center. See the remarkable dwellings revealed from beneath the sand dunes by storms only 150 years ago.\nHear some of the stories from your guide today en route back to Kirkwall. Once back in the island capital we will take a tour of St Magnus Cathedral, built by the Vikings during their 500 year reign over the islands.\nFair Isle is a real paradise for birdwatchers. Huge numbers of birds inhabit the lush grasslands and spectacular cliffs. Over 345 species have been recorded here \u2013 more than anywhere else in Britain. During our walk across the island, we hope to see northern fulmars, kittiwakes, northern gannets, puffins, and great and arctic skuas.\nNational Geographic Traveler had designated Faroe Islands as \u201cauthentic, unspoiled and likely to remain so\u201d. It seems that Nature spares no colors in \u201cpainting\u201d the islands. Deep-green hills, bright blue sea, colorful houses and boats, orange-red puffins\u2019 beaks make the sceneries unforgettable. We stop at the capital of the Faroes \u2014Torshavn.\nIncluded tour \u201cKirkjub\u00f8ur.\u201d\nDuring the Middle Ages, Kirkjub\u00f8ur was the ecclesiastical and cultural center of the Faroes. Here was the Bishop\u2019s residence until the Reformation, when the Faroese diocese was abolished. The imposing ruin of Saint Magnus Cathedral still dominates the site. Construction of the Cathedral is thought to have begun in the late-thirteenth century, as the style of the building is from the best period of Gothic architecture, common to West Norwegian church building of that time. Tradition has it that it was never finished; yet recent research has revealed that it was probably roofed at one time. The Roykstovan, standing on the wide, stone foundation of a portion of the Bishop\u2019s palace, has been the home of the farmers in Kirkjub\u00f8ur for centuries and occupied by the same Faroese family for 17 generations. Covered with a traditional turf roof, it is a large building made of logs, which are said to have come drifting all the way from Norway some 700 years ago. The farmhouse interior reflects the lifestyle of a large Faroese farm. On our way to and from Kirkjub\u00f8ur, we have a magnificent view to the west of the islands of Koltur, Hestur, Sandoy, and V\u00e1gar.\nPresentations and workshops by our expert staff, as well as our range of onboard recreation facilities, ensure that this day at sea is not idly spent. Seabird viewing and whale sightings can be enjoyed from panoramic open decks as well as exterior stateroom windows and balconies.\nJan Mayen hosts landscapes of breathtaking beauty and the northernmost subaerial active volcano on the planet \u2013 the Beerenberg. The island is wild and uninhabited not including members of Norwegian weather station. The signboard at the entrance door says (translated from the Norwegian): \u201cTheory is when you understand everything but nothing works. Practice is when everything works but nobody understands why. On this station, we combine theory and practice in a way that nothing works and nobody understands why\u201d. Northern fulmars, Kittiwakes, and Br\u00fcnich\u2019s guillemots breeding on steep cliffs and slopes represent the birdlife of Jan Mayen.\nThe lectures of our invited speakers prepare us for meeting with the unique Arctic wildlife and awesome landscapes of Spitsbergen.\nThis is a real expedition in a true High Arctic wilderness. As such, our route and exploration opportunities here are heavily dependent on the weather and sea ice conditions we encounter. Our experienced captain and expedition leader decide the itinerary and continually adjust plans as conditions and opportunities warrant. You can be sure that the best possible advantage will be taken of the circumstances presented to us by Nature in this wild and remote corner of the Arctic.\nPolar bears and other quintessential Arctic wildlife can be spotted anytime, anywhere in and around Svalbard. We exploit every opportunity to experience excellent wildlife viewing, to discover incredible scenery, and to walk in the footsteps of the historic polar expeditions that came before us.\nWe anticipate exploring the spectacular fjords, coasts, and islands in the western part of Svalbard. This area contains the archipelago\u2019s most impressive scenery and some of the Arctic\u2019s best wildlife viewing opportunities. Deep fjords and narrow channels are flanked by jagged snowy mountain peaks. Immense tidewater glaciers calve icebergs into turquoise waters. Fields of flowering tundra are home to grazing reindeer and playful Arctic fox. Bountiful inshore and offshore waters are home to walrus and a wide variety of whales. The whole area is alive with migratory birds, including numerous rare species, taking advantage of summer\u2019s fecundity in 24-hour daylight.\nTo complete the Arctic experience we also explore places rich with history. Our area of exploration contains the historical remnants of whaling camps, coal mining operations, trappers\u2019 cabins, staging areas for historic attempts to discover the North Pole, and even an abandoned polar research station.\nThe days are filled with memorable excursions, sumptuous meals, presentations by our experts, and enough stunning scenery and wildlife to fill your camera and overwhelm your emotions.\nAfter breakfast we say farewell in the town of Longyearbyen, the administrative capital of the Norwegian territory of Svalbard. We provide a transfer to the airport or to the town center if you wish to spend more time here. In this case, be sure to see the excellent Svalbard Museum and take advantage of quality shopping and dining opportunities in this fascinating Arctic settlement.",

This long-standing issue has finally reached a resolve that both sides could support, and many benefits were achieved in the process, including but not limited to:\nAt the eight percent former rate \u2013 the cumulative amount we would pay over 49 years is approx. $900,000,000. (an average of 18 million a year). At the example of two percent Consumer Price Index, the cumulative cost of 49 years\u2019 worth of payments is $121,000,000. (an average of 2.4 million a year). The graph above shows the cumulative expense as the contract progresses to the year 2066. Photo by Steve Libring.\n\u2013 EVMWD getting a guaranteed steady stream of revenue from this lease for another 49 years (to 2066).\n\u2013 Provisions for CLPOA to extend the lease another 44 years beyond 2066 (to 2110).\n\u2013 Both sides responsible for their own mistakes (instead of Canyon Lake being responsible for any fault).\n\u2013 The lake north of the north causeway is now under the same rules/lease.\n\u2013 Disputes will be resolved through an improved mediation process.\n\u2013 New insurance requirements to help prevent future disputes.\n\u2013 Annual increases are fixed to be no more than 4% in any one year.\n\u2013 Lake lease payments will now be tied to the Consumer Price Index (CPI), not to the cost of water.\nIt is that last point that most significantly affects the community. The potential savings to each resident and the community cannot be understated. Simply put, the lake lease was approved many, many years ago, tying the annual increases to the cost of the Metropolitan Water District\u2019s cost of water.\nDuring the initial years of the former lease, this increase wasn\u2019t as significant and could be absorbed by the CLPOA in their annual budget. But as the years went on, it became clear that the cost of water (especially since we live in a drought area) would become increasingly costly and reach numbers that would be out of our ability to pay.\nConsider that during the last 10 years alone, the cost of water had averaged eight percent increase per year (with some years as high as a 19 percent increase). Even though there were many residents feeling the CLPOA Board of Directors should just finish out the existing contract, which still had over six years left at the time, the cost of the lake lease could increase by almost another million dollars a year \u2013 from $1.4 million to nearly $2.4 million during that six-year time frame. An average eight percent estimated rate of increase would lead to exorbitant costs down the line that the residents and CLPOA would no longer be able to afford.\nTo better help understand how increasing costs at eight percent can quickly compound, here\u2019s an example: it only takes nine years to double the price of the lease under the former terms. So, in 2016, when faced with the prospect of extending a new lease for an additional 50 years to 2066, the numbers become absolutely staggering.\nThe lease was nearing $1.5 million a year, and with eight percent per year average, it would become $3 million per year in just nine years. Then that $3 million a year annual payment would double up again to $6 million during the next nine years. After 27 years, it would double to $12 million; after 36 years, it would be $24 million; after 45 years, it would reach $48 million: and at the end of the contract a staggering $68 million a year under this present formula, based on the last 10-year pattern we were seeing. This gives a glimpse of what the CLPOA Board of Directors were dealing with all these years and why they elected to try to negotiate for a better contract.\nHowever, under the new contract, the annual increase is fixed to the Consumer Price Index (CPI). This indicator has been much, much lower over these last same 10 years (averaging approximately two percent). So it would take 36 years to finally double up if it continues to average two percent. Canyon Lake\u2019s contract of $1.5 million now \u2013 would only be about $3 million 36 years into the new contract and approximately $4 million annually in year 2066, not $68 million as with the previous eight percent example (see chart on A4).\nKeep in mind, these are only the current annual lease payments increased by the percent increase, and showing what the new payment would be the following year. But when you add up each year\u2019s expenditures cumulatively over the next 49 years it has serious implications.\nAt the eight percent former rate \u2013 the cumulative amount we would pay over 49 years is approx. $900,000,000. (an average of 18 million a year). At the example of two percent Consumer Price Index, the cumulative cost of 49 years\u2019 worth of payments is $121,000,000. (an average of 2.4 million a year).\nA spokesperson for CLPOA said, \u201cThis truly is a monumental step forward. We are very pleased that the hard work from both sides, and the patience and participation of CLPOA\u2019s members, has produced this durable and lasting agreement, which will preserve the special character of the Canyon Lake community for decades to come.\u201d\nThe Board of Directors made the correct decision to renegotiate the contract, before it spiraled out of control. The cost to negotiate over these last six years (approx. $1,067,000) will be recaptured (saved) in less than four years and the returns beyond that for the remaining 45 more years are obviously well worth the investment of time, energy and funds expended.\nThe next time you see a past or current member of the CLPOA Board of Directors, thank them for the job they did to protect the assets and financial solvency of this community, for the responsible solution they achieved, for the endless hours they volunteered, for the criticism they endured and for their persistence to put the community first and do what was right for our community.\nThanks also go to the many CLPOA staff members over the years and to the volunteer members of the Lake Lease Advisory Committee who helped provide their expertise, input, community feedback and guidance to the CLPOA Board of Directors, staff and attorneys along the way since 2015. This was truly an example of the community pulling together when needed.\nEditors note: Steve Libring is a volunteer member of the Canyon Lake Lake Lease Advisory Committee.

        "raw_content": "HomeArticleMatch ReviewBournemouth Reaction\nBournemouth Reaction\nOctober 29, 2018 Alex Hillier Match Review\nGoing to the Cottage on Saturday it was evident we were all looking for a more positive outcome than we achieved last Saturday in Wales. However, despite our desperation for signs of progress, it feels like we aren\u2019t moving in the right direction, after 10 games of a season that we had all dreamed would be different after the years we spent outside the top flight. Personally, I think that without Slav the club would\u2019ve slipped into League One and who knows where after that. The day at Wembley and the months leading up to it were amongst some of the best there have ever been as a Whites supporter \u2013 but we are seeing too many of the same failures that characterised our start to the season last year in the Championship.\nTo state the obvious, everyone both within and outside the club would have been hoping to put the abject performance in Cardiff behind us and move on with 3 points today. That isn\u2019t to make light of Bournemouth and the impressive performances they have put in this season, but as the clich\u00e9 goes, these are exactly the games we have to win to have any chance of survival. The changes at the back are understandable after the defensive horror show last weekend but it negated the best things about our play. The one player who looks like they aren\u2019t sure where to go positionally is Sess. The best thing about his game is being in the box to score goals with late runs that are hard to track for opposition defenders. But we don\u2019t see that in this system as he spends too much time out of the dangerous areas on the pitch.\nFrom the perspective of our team selection, it looks seemingly rational on paper, although in practical reality it looks far from it. Allowing Fraser and Brooks too much time on the flanks and leaving our two centre-backs unsure of whose responsibility it is to mark Wilson, is an obvious error but one that the players seemingly didn\u2019t grasp. The first 10 minutes might have been a positive start to the game but another example in our long list of defensive errors means we are consistently playing catch up on teams that enjoy facing our defence. The front line \u2013 and the team in general \u2013 lacks any of the flair and pace that have characterised our best periods under Slav\u2019s reign and can\u2019t be expected to bale out the rest of the team every time we take to the field.\nTim Ream\u2019s comments in the week caused a fair bit of controversy \u2013 even though he was keen to play them down \u2013 but it appears there\u2019s a decent amount of truth in them. The side doesn\u2019t play with anywhere near the required intensity to secure points at this level and Bournemouth had it far too easy throughout the 90 minutes. The easiest evidence to support this is the number of times it took Bournemouth one pass to break into our half of the pitch. Once they got there it was far too easy for them to play it around knowing that there was no pressure being put on them. Anyone who has played football at any level knows it\u2019s a lot easier to execute your skills when you haven\u2019t got anyone from the opposite team within 5 yards of you.\nWe attempted to change that in the first 10 minutes of the second half but once again we haven\u2019t been able to put together a good sequence of play for more than a brief period of time during a match. The heavy possession in the oppositions half worked wonders in the Championship when our quality on the pitch was too much for the rest of the league, but we have looked toothless so far this season. Most of the goals we have been able to celebrate this season have been individual moments of quality as opposed to team moves that demonstrate a solid plan. The defence is the easiest to malign but the whole team is culpable for the poor performances so far.\nWhich leads me onto what I honestly think the biggest problem in the team is. And no it\u2019s not the defence or the manager, it\u2019s the midfield. KMAC was one of the standout performers of the season last year and it genuinely pains me to say it but there\u2019s no evidence that he can perform at this level. He doesn\u2019t anchor the midfield and protect the defence, nor does he provide the base for the rest of the midfield to flourish. The expectations for Seri haven\u2019t helped either. He isn\u2019t a midfielder that scores a lot of goals or provides a huge amount of assists. What he does do is continue to pass the ball but without Cairney, he looks a little lost. There were quite a lot of fans who have got on the back of our captain since the beginning of last season, but without him, we have seen the significance he has for the team. The quality of the passes played within the first few minutes he came on proved that with him we are a much more impressive side. The crazy situation of his fitness is a concern but any basis for a successful Fulham has our Wembley hero as the focal point.\nNow to the really uncomfortable bit that is likely to divide a significant percentage of the fan base, what do we do about Slav? Some might think that a run of games like we\u2019ve had means there isn\u2019t an alternative and that he has to go. He will always be an icon for the fans after what he\u2019s done for us since his arrival, but even for those that will support him to the end, there does need to be some significant alterations to the side. I can only hope that the club retains the face with Slav and gives him the time he needs. Bringing in so many new players was never likely to produce a settled team from the off but anyone that thought we\u2019d be in this situation at this point isn\u2019t being genuine.\nHuddersfield was always going to be a pivotal game but now it\u2019s crucial. We\u2019ve been through worse as fans before and we will again so the only thing I can say to finish this off is don\u2019t get on the back of the team when they need us the most. We all spend a lot of money to follow Fulham home and away and every one us has the right to say how we feel but a negative atmosphere won\u2019t help the players produce, however, frustrated we feel inside. Keep the faith everyone, we\u2019ll come back stronger.\nSigned as the marquee new arrival during the summer transfer window (we aren\u2019t counting Mitro in this) Jean Michael Seri was supposed to add top-level quality to what was the most successful part of the [\u2026]",

        "title": "Afraid \u2013 The Gay Agenda",
        "raw_content": "This monologue was written for anyone and everyone who is still struggling with their identity, or who can\u2019t express how they want to out of fear. While I did some editing and rearranging (with the person\u2019s consent), this piece was written and submitted anonymously.\nI was 11. My nephew had just been born, and my sister and I were going on a walk because she wanted a break from the baby. She has always been the kind of person that will talk your ear off about her problems, if you let her. Out of nowhere, she starts to rant about how she would accept my nephew for who he is if he was gay or bi or trans or whatever. Then she stopped, she stopped walking, stopped talking. I stopped with her because I was nervous. She looked down at me, and said, \u201cY\u2019know, I can\u2019t figure you out. Do you like guys or girls?\u201d I was really scared because no one who had ever asked me that. I had just figured out that girls could like girls, and I realized that I did. I wasn\u2019t broken. So, I looked her in the eye, and said as bravely as I could, \u201cKinda both.\u201d\nI was 14. I had a crush on one of my best friends. I had come out to my friends earlier that year, and they were accepting. But the whole, \u201cjust don\u2019t have a crush on me\u201d was a thing. I was sitting with my dad in the living room. I was on the floor, doing homework. I had been scared to tell him anything. But I had to tell someone. I looked at him, and I can\u2019t remember how but I came out to him as bisexual. He was mostly accepting, but then he was constantly asking me if I had a crush on anyone. Eventually, I realized that I wasn\u2019t bisexual, but I kept my dad informed. I told him that I was bisexual, pansexual, OH SHIT, I\u2019m actually asexual. He was understanding on most, except for asexual. He is still of the mind that it is just a phase, and I will find someone who I just want to be with, physically. He is still constantly asking me, \u201cAre you gay?\u201d The answer is, I am neither physically attracted to males or females, but I am romantically attracted to women or people who are not extremely masculine. I have had crushes on guys. I am not just \u201cgay,\u201d though it is easier to say than \u201casexual polyromantic.\u201d\nI was 16. My girlfriend and I had been together for 3 months. I still had not come out to my mother. I was sure that I was falling for my girlfriend, and I was getting tired of hiding from my mom. It was January 31st, my three-month anniversary. We were sitting in the living room and eating dinner. We were having steak for dinner, on the fine china. I couldn\u2019t eat because I was so anxious. I put my plate down, and came out to my mom. The first thing she said after I stopped talking was, \u201cAre you still happy being a girl?\u201d I went upstairs and cried as hard as I could. I went over to the stairs, and sat down to see if I could hear my mom\u2019s reaction, because who doesn\u2019t eavesdrop on their parents? She asked my dad, \u201cDoes asexual mean that she can have sex with anyone?\u201d She still to this day, tells me \u201cOh, when you have a husband\u2026\u201d or \u201cwhen you have kids\u2026.\u201d And it hurts me.\nI was 15 going on 16. I had told my dad that I had a girlfriend. One night, he walked into my room, and asked me \u201cAre you the male or the female?\u201d I was scared because at the time, I wasn\u2019t out about my gender with him. I had thought that I was doing well at hiding my identity. My initial response was to come clean, to seek acceptance from him, \u201cSometimes I feel male, and sometimes I feel more female.\u201d He was taken aback, and said, \u201cNo, I meant are you the more dominant\u2026?\u201d I blushed and told him that we switched roles. I felt awkward because at the time I had identified as genderfluid, and I had tried to come out to him, and he essentially rejected it. I was angry because neither of us were the male because we were both \u201cwomen.\u201d Neither of us identified as female, but that\u2019s beside the point. I was confused because when it came to my sexuality, he was accepting, for the most part.\nMy dad constantly tells me, \u201cYou are a beautiful young woman, you should be proud of your curves.\u201d My mom does not understand the differences in gender identity. I tried once, to ask if I could get a binder. He said no. He constantly tells me that I am a woman, that I will always be his little girl. But the problem is, I am not a girl. I exist kind of in the middle, and I fluctuate between the binary. Sometimes, I want to wear a binder, and guy shorts. Other days I want to run around in a dress. But I never feel truly male or truly female. I always feel a little bit of both. I guess it has always been this way, I have always been the friend dressing up as the prince to \u201cmarry\u201d my friends. I was always the girl in the flowery dress chasing the boys through the mud and up the playground equipment. At the time, I didn\u2019t realize that I was different. Now I do, and I am confident-ish in myself, and how I present. But I am still terrified of telling my parents because I love them. I don\u2019t want to lose them because they would misunderstand. So, in regards to my gender, I will remain forever in the closet.\nMy ex now identifies as a demi-boy, and wants to transition. I now identify as bigender. All I want is a binder. I don\u2019t want to make any permanent changes to my body. I hate my period, I hate that the hormones that precede it make me feel more masculine, and that when it comes, I am forced to remember that I was assigned female. I do not want a penis. I occasionally like my breasts. I occasionally love my curves, and my hips. I just want to look like whatever I feel in the moment.\nTo this day, I will not come out to my family with my gender. I\u2019m still scared of what they will think of me. Scared that they\u2019ll play it off as just another phase.\nacceptance, Ace, binder, closeted, gsm, identity, lgbt, Narrative, queer, questioning, sexuality, Trans",

        "title": "Alan Tudyk on Playing The Joker Differently Than Mark Hamill in DC's HARLEY QUINN Animated Series \u2014 GeekTyrant",
        "raw_content": "TV Alan TudykHarley QuinnAnimatedThe Joker about 2 days ago by Joey Paur\nIn case you weren\u2019t already aware, Alan Tudyk is providing the voice of The Joker in DC\u2019s upcoming Harley Quinn animated series.\nThere are have been several voice actors who have voiced the legendary Batman villain over the years, but for most fans, Mark Hamill is the definitive version of the character. He just brought the character to life in a way that no one else has been able to do.\nWell, as a fan of Tudyk, I wish him the best as he takes on the role, and I\u2019m excited to see how he makes it is own. The actor is well aware of how fans feel about Hamill\u2019s Joker, and one thing he\u2019s not going to do is try to replicate Hamill\u2019s style.\nTudyk shared a conversation he had with Tony Hale, who also voiced The Joker as well at one point.\n\"Here's a funny story, Tony Hale plays Psycho, Doctor Psycho. He came in, and I'd said, 'Hi,' and he didn't, I don't know, I'd just finished recording and he was coming in to record and he was talking to the producer saying, 'Oh yeah, the Joker, did y'all get Mark Hamill to do that?' And I said, 'No, they got me. I'm doing the Joker.' Oh, he said, 'Did you get Mark Hamill to do that 'cause if you didn't get him it's going to suck.' 'I'm doing the Joker.' And he said, 'Oh, I'm just saying that because I did the Joker and everybody said, 'You're not Mark Hamill. You suck.''\nTudyk then went on to explain that he purposely didn\u2019t go back and listen to Hamill\u2019s Joker so that he wouldn\u2019t be influenced by it. He also talked about how his Joker will be different than Hamill\u2019s:\n\"So knowing I can't be Mark Hamill, I haven't listened to Mark Hamill. I have heard him, but I didn't watch it so I couldn't recreate it. He's different in the way that he can cuss. I think that's probably referring to be able to say, 'Ah, fuck off.' Having that in your ability and your Joker is fun. It's a very funny cartoon, animated series, so I think the style of it lends itself to allowing more flexibility. I don't know, man. I don't know. I think I'm doing some of my voice and sometimes I'll hear it, and when I watch the previews of it all, and I just sound like me. I hope it's okay. I'm just hoping, yeah I hope it's okay.\"\nI\u2019m sure that Tudyk is going to be just fine and that fans will be open to how he plays The Joker in the series. I\u2019m personally excited to see what he\u2019s got in store!\nThe rest of the voice cast of the series includes The Big Bang Theory's Kaley Cuoco as Harley, Lake Bell (In a World\u2026, Wet Hot American Summer series, Childrens Hospital), Ron Funches (Powerless), JB Smoove (Curb Your Enthusiasm), Jason Alexander (Seinfeld), Wanda Sykes (Black-ish), Giancarlo Esposito (Bob Roberts, Breaking Bad), Natalie Morales (Bojack Horseman), Jim Rash (Mike Tyson Mysteries), Diedrich Bader (Veep), Tony Hale (Arrested Development, Veep), Chris Meloni (Happy!, Law & Order: Special Victims Unit).\nThe first season will consist of 26 half-hour episodes, and this was the previously released synopsis:\nThe animated series follows Harley as she breaks things off with the Joker and attempts to make it on her own as the criminal \"queenpin\" of Gotham City. The series is described as an adult animated action-comedy.\nHarley Quinn comes from Powerless producers Justin Halpern, Patrick Schumacker, and Dean Lorey. Do you think Tudyk will deliver a solid Joker performance?\nSource: CB\nInteresting and Different Take on The Joker and Harley Quinn in Fan Art\nBruce Timm Says BATMAN AND HARLEY QUINN is Set in The BATMAN: THE ANIMATED SERIES Universe\nTim Curry Was Originally Cast as The Joker in BATMAN: THE ANIMATED SERIES; Here's How Mark Hamill Came to Replace Him\nMark Hamill Reflects On Playing The Joker in BATMAN: THE ANIMATED SERIES\nFirst Teaser Trailer For DC's HARLEY QUINN Animated Series and Voice Cast Announced\nMark Hamill Shares His Favorite Joker Dialogue From BATMAN: THE ANIMATED SERIES",

        "title": "My Favourite Books of 2017 \u2013 by G.J. Alvi",
        "raw_content": "I think that 2017 was a really long shit show for everyone, but at least we have books.\nI went into 2017 with really low expectations of my reading after the events of 2016. I was able to surprise myself, however, and finish thirty books. While it\u2019s nowhere near others\u2019 yearly tallies of 75, 80, and 100 books, I\u2019m proud of my accomplishment.\nAnd so, I want to celebrate my reading year by sharing five of my favourites, in no particular order:\nThe Female of the Species by Mindy McGinniss\nI knew from the very first chapter that I was going to love The Female of the Species and I was right. This book was brutal and so unapologetically raw, and I loved it. Some of the major themes were sociopathy, religion, and rape culture.\nSee my mini-review on Goodreads.\nThe Wayward Children by Seanan McGuire\nThis encompasses both Every Heart a Doorway (pictured) and Down Among the Sticks and Bones, and these two novellas were so deliciously dark. There was a quirky mysticism in Every Heart a Doorway that shocked me when it took a sharp turn from whimsical boarding school to murder mystery.\nSee my mini-reviews for Every Heart a Doorway and Down Among the Sticks and Bones on Goodreads.\nThis is my biggest surprise of the year. I bought the entire series a few years ago when it was on sale and ignored it until earlier this year when I wanted an easy-to-read paranormal romance. Boy, did I get more than that. VA dealt with mental illness and self-harm and slut shaming all while spinning the vampire trope in a new direction and building a six book story arc of family, politics, and magic.\nSimilar to Vampire Academy, I had Schusterman\u2019s other book Unwind in my Kindle library for years but never read it. Coupled with Scythe\u2019s premise and a promising review from Joey, I decided to pick this up first.\nWhile it can be a little slow, Scythe was a thought provoking glimpse into a future where humanity conquered death and disease and humanity became immortal. I loved the considerations of morality and the politics within this book. And after that ending, the sequel Thunderbird, is a 2018 release I can\u2019t wait to have in my hands.\nQueen of Blood by Sarah Beth Durst\nQueen of Blood was another sleeper hit. The beginning is a little slow because the story takes place in a fairly complicated fantasy world that needs a decent understanding that doesn\u2019t come until about third in.

In previous years the library has only had 24 hour opening times during exam season. Currently, the library is open from 07:15 am until 02:00 am.\nWhile there is not yet an exact date for when the hours will change permanently, the University has told The Glasgow Guardian that they hope to implement the new opening hours as soon as possible.\nThe new opening hours announcement comes after ongoing student demands: many struggled to juggle their work commitments and study schedule, as well as students with mental health issues finding it particularly difficult to not have 24 hour access. The library will then be open for 24 hours all year round with the exception of Christmas Day, Boxing Day and January first and second.\nA library spokesperson said: \u201cWe hope that the 24 hour access will begin as soon as possible, following consultation with trade unions and hiring and training of staff.\n\u201cFurthermore, the library will be aiming to reach out to students about how they want to use and utilize the new facilities, such as the James McCune Smith Learning Hub.\u201d\nUniversity library banks over \u00a350k in fines\nProposed changes to library staffed services a \u2018retrograde step\u2019, says SRC President\nLibrary service changes could puts jobs at risk",

        "raw_content": "Four walkie pictures turned up recently with the same two women in them. They do look very much like sisters. As the photos were found (and one taken) in Sheffield, I assume one of the ladies was a resident of the city so couldn\u2019t resist a bit of detective work. The photo on the right has the date and \u2018Blackpool\u2019 in biro, which gave me a starting clue.\nThanks to Tony Sharkey at the Blackpool Archives, we know two of the photographs were taken on Waterloo Road in Blackpool, which is a main route east west ending at the sea-front. The photo was taken just 250m from Blackpool South railway station (which was originally called Waterloo Road), so the photographer had picked a street which would have been thronged with day trippers anxious to get to the promenade. As we think the women lived in Sheffield, they would probably have journeyed from there to Manchester, then changed for Blackpool.\nThe photographs, which are 21/2 by 31/2 inches, date from 1951 (Monday October 8th \u2013 written in biro on the back) and 1952. Both women have very smart Fifties coats on (compare them to the less fashionable coat being worn by the woman behind them!).\nOn the other side of the road you can just make out the main Blackpool post-office (which is still there, albeit abandoned by the GPO of course). At first glance you would think the pictures were taken on the same holiday, but there is building work being done on the post office in one, and not the other. So the walkie cameraman must have had his pitch here, close to the Bull Hotel pub, for a couple of seasons at least. The scene today on this spot is not very different.\nTony says he\u2019s seen a lot of walkies taken on this spot, but it\u2019s a first for me. I did find one on the web from the early 1940s (see below) but in the main I suspect they are not easy to identify as there is no company name on the back. So unless someone has captioned them on the back it would be hard to tell where they were taken. Most Blackpool walkies I\u2019ve seen were taken on one of the three piers or on the Promenade by firms like Walkie Snaps (see some examples on the site here).\nIt is not impossible that the photographer is still around, he would be in his mid-eighties. Be great to have a chat. The women? Well the taller sister got married in 1956, we know as she kept a walkie if herself and her husband on their honeymoon in Scarborough! She became Mrs Milner, but after that we have no more clues.\nThis entry was posted on June 13, 2015 by simon robinson. It was filed under Blackpool, walking picture and was tagged with 1950s, Blackpool, fashion, walking picture, Waterloo Road.\nPingback: Waterloo walkie | Go Home On A Postcard \u2022 Vintage seaside photography",

It's a\u2026well, here, read the Mickey G's press release:\nMcGladrey LLP, the nation's leading provider of assurance, tax and consulting services focused on the middle market, recently launched a strategy to serve emerging middle market companies.

        "raw_content": "When refugees need emergency assistance with a language barrier, this app connects them to a translator \u2022 fastcompany.com\nWhen a boat of 12 refugees capsized in early 2018 on their way to Greece, a Greek team of non-profit organizations saw the accident \u2013 but they were not allowed to bring their boat into Turkish waters to do the rescue. They also could not speak Turkish, so when they called the Turkish Coast Guard they could not communicate. Then someone got an app on their phone and a few minutes later they were connected to a volunteer who works in Los Angeles as a designer and who happens to speak Turkish.\n\"She came home from work to her apartment and received a ping message:\" Hey, are you ten minutes free to help? \"She suddenly became part of the rescue,\" Aziz Alghunaim, one of the co-founders of Tarjimly., The non-profit startup that first launched a Messenger bot two years ago to quickly connect volunteer translators with refugees (The name Tarjimly means \"translate for me\" in Arabic.) The volunteer called the Coast Guard and half an hour later the lives of the refugees were saved.The service has now been used more than 10,000 times and now the non-profit organization makes it more accessible by launching new iPhone and Android apps that are hoped to these more people will reach.\nThe app started as a side project for Alghunaim and co-founder Atif Javed when they both just graduated from MIT and moved to Silicon Valley to do more typical technical jobs. Javed's own grandmother was a refugee and when his family moved to the United States he translated for her; Both founders began to think about the need for translation in the current refugee crisis as students, and were increasingly disappointed by standard technology. \"I wanted to be able to work on something that would not only be technology because of technology or technology that simply helps rich people in the world, but really helps people who really need it,\" says Alghunaim.\n\"It all started when we said: let's test this idea as soon as possible,\" he says. \"And the idea was simple: can we use the skills of people \u2013 who are on the internet and have multiple languages \u200b\u200b- to completely eradicate the idea that a refugee can not get help because they do not speak the language of the aid workers?\"\n[Image: Tarjimly]When Trump announced the first travel ban in January 2017 \u2013 blocking the resettlement of refugees and civilians from seven countries with a majority of Muslims and needed immediate translation at airports \u2013 the founders decided to share the app early. The answer was immediate; within a few days about 1500 people had volunteered. Javed and Alghunaim have decided to quit their job and launch the non-profit organization.\nThe developers started with Facebook Messenger after they realized that refugees already used it on a large scale. They could test the viability of the concept: would volunteers give it a try or do they want to come back? Would enough people sign up? Would the humanitarian sector trust the service and would it use it? They quickly saw that it worked. The platform now has more than 8000 translators who speak more than 90 languages, and can be used in almost any situation where someone trying to help can not communicate with someone in need \u2013 such as in a medical appointment where a doctor can not talk to a refugee. \u2013 and where a traditional translation service is not available.\nThe new mobile app is designed to continue. For example, voice calls were difficult to include in the Messenger app. While refugees already used Messenger, it is not an ideal tool for humanitarian workers who may work for large organizations with specific security requirements for technology, or who may not want workers to use Facebook. The standalone app may contain new features, such as an educational tool that helps someone improve their translation skills. With the new app, the non-profit organization hopes to attract a million volunteers.\nThe app can also help in situations outside the refugee camps and borders. For example, non-profit organizations that work with non-English speaking housekeepers in the United States are interested in using the service. A resettlement agency recently used it to help a Swahili-speaking family to sign up for food aid in the United States. Another agency used it to help a Spanish speaking mother who had just given birth in a hospital where no Spanish-speaking translators were present. \"We started this because of the refugee crisis because of that pertinent need\", Javed says. \"But really, we now see the impact that has on the entire humanitarian space.\"\napp, assistance, barrier, connects, emergency, fastcompanycom, language, refugees, translator",

        "raw_content": "You are here: Home / Speeches and Remarks / 2019 State of the State Address\n*As Prepared*\nThanks, everyone for your gracious welcome. I truly appreciate it. It\u2019s been just seven weeks since I took the oath of office to become the twelfth Governor in the history of our young state.\nI\u2019m here today because of the People of Alaska, who put their faith in me and in my vision, for our great state.\nToo often leaders seem to forget a simple truth: Government gets all of its authority from the people.\nThe Court system has no power \u2013 except what the people give.\nThe Legislature has no power \u2013 except what the people give.\nThe Governor has no power either\u2013 except what you, the people of Alaska, give.\nThis evening, as I stand before the People of Alaska, delivering my first State of the State Address, I reflect on where we are as a state, the opportunity before us, and what this point in history means for Alaska.\nBefore I continue, I\u2019d like to take a moment and introduce members of my administration. I would ask them to please stand. Thank you all very much.\nAnd now I\u2019d like to introduce someone who is very special to me: my wife of 31 years, the First Lady Rose Dunleavy. Rose is from Northwest Alaska and we were married in the wonderful city of Nome. We have three independent, free-spirited, and very self-reliant daughters: Maggie, Catherine, and Ceil Ann, who love Alaska as much as we do.\nLike many Alaskans, I enjoy the outdoors, hunting, fishing, and the boundless adventures and opportunities our great state has to offer. Yet, I\u2019m a man who chose education as a career, because I love helping kids and I love learning and teaching.\nI\u2019m not a career politician. I\u2019ve only been in politics for eight short years \u2014 three of those years as a school board member, and five years as a state senator.\nI\u2019ve always wanted to help people. This is why I went into politics. Last year, I followed my heart and my gut, and decided in order to change the course of our great state, that I would run for governor. And so, I did. And then I was elected.\nHow did this retired teacher get elected governor? Was it my social graces and charm? Not really. If you ask, me, I\u2019d say the other candidates were much better connected in the social circles, better looking, and far more charming.\nWas it my eloquent speeches or my debating skills? Not really. If you ask me, I\u2019d say all the other candidates were smoother and better debaters.\nWas it because I was the tallest? Well, I do stand out in the crowd a bit, but I don\u2019t think that was it either.\nI\u2019m Governor today because of the campaign promises I made to the people of Alaska on the issues most of us believe in. I\u2019m here to do exactly what I promised to do, what I told Alaskans I would do.\nWe\u2019re going to declare war on criminals.\nWe\u2019re going to get our spending in line with our revenue. This has to be done.\nWe\u2019re going to protect Alaskans\u2019 Permanent Fund dividends.\nWe\u2019re going to grow our economy and put Alaskans to work.\nAnd we must restore public trust in government and elected officials.\nThat\u2019s what my plan was last year, and that\u2019s my plan now.\nBut before I could be sworn in, our world shook. As we know, the second-most damaging earthquake in Alaska\u2019s history struck Southcentral Alaska on November 30,, 2018, with over $100 million in damages.\nWithin hours of the quake, I was down at the State Emergency Operations Center, assessing the situation. I want to thank Governor Walker for working with my team during the process.\nLast month I met with President Trump and had the opportunity to brief him on the earthquake damage and recovery efforts. The President confirmed his strong support. And the congressional delegation and I will work together to hold the federal government to its commitment.\nThis is an example of Alaskans coming together to solve significant problems.\nWe all feel a deep sense of gratitude to the men and women who served as emergency responders. They are Alaska heroes. There were countless examples of Alaskans who made us proud: Hospital employees were ready to treat the injured. School teachers kept kids safe and evacuated them from unsafe buildings. And contractors rushed to repair damage to roads and buildings in record time.\nNeighbors helping neighbors. That\u2019s what Alaska is all about.\nA perfect example of this are two middle schoolers we have with us today: Tor Petersen and Kayana Marquiss. For them, it started out like any other day. And then it hit. When the quake struck and their school began to shake violently, they knew this was serious.\nRelying on what Tor was taught by his amazing teachers, he immediately sought safety. But he soon realized one of his classmates needed help. Putting his own safety aside, Tor proceeded to do what heroes do. He took immediate action, grabbed ahold of Kayana and led her to the safest part of the room.\nI would ask Tor and Kayana to please stand and be recognized. You two exemplify what the spirit of Alaska is all about. I want to thank you both for reminding us that in a time of crisis how good all of us can be to each other.\nThat day, Alaskans demonstrated to the world our resiliency. Alaskans were at their finest.\nIt was a perfect example that together we can overcome anything; that together we will make our streets safe again; that together we will build a permanent fiscal plan; that together, we will protect the Permanent Fund dividend for generations to come. That together, we will restore the trust of the Alaska People in their government and their elected officials.\nI promised during the campaign to follow the law on the PFD. And that\u2019s exactly what we should do. Alaskans\u2019 PFDs should be paid in full using the law that has worked for decades, and the PFD should be protected in the Constitution, now and for the future.\nLast week, I introduced two bills for the back-pay owed to Alaskans on their PFDs. I urge you to act swiftly on those bills. Every penny of that PFD money due Alaskans is sitting in the Earnings Reserve Account, and is available for distribution.\nLet\u2019s act now and put this issue behind us once and for all.\nNow let\u2019s talk about creating a real, honest budget.\nAlaskans believe our state budget process is a mess. There is simply no other way to describe it.\nWhy is it a mess?\nBecause our government spending far exceeds the revenue we take in. Kicking the can down the road for years, wiping out billions from savings, and then taxing the PFD, all the while just hoping for another oil boom \u2014 it simply doesn\u2019t work.\nThe days of creating a \u201cwish list\u201d budget, where Alaska is more like a reality show \u2014 make a wish, have your dream come true \u2014 that just isn\u2019t real life.\nThe days when anything and everything is just too important not to fund, and where politicians spend their time looking for ways for you to pay for it? Those days have got to be over. We can no longer spend what we don\u2019t have.\nWe are now preparing a budget that for the first time all Alaskans will be able to understand and trust. No more games, no more shuffling numbers. Just an honest, straightforward look at where we are.\nWhile no one person is to blame, Alaskans will quickly see that we\u2019ve been spending wildly beyond our means for years. Our children and grandchildren deserve better.\nIn order to get a handle on the budget, one of my first administrative orders was to centralize the budget-making functions of all departments under the Office of Management and Budget.\nMy administration will be focused on the basic functions of government, while realigning programs and operations to eliminate duplication and prioritize each agency\u2019s core mission.\nMy first budget is going to be an honest budget. As I promised the people, we must start from the standpoint that expenditures must equal revenue. We can\u2019t go on forever using savings to plug the budget gap.\nBut that\u2019s only part of the solution. In order to address the fiscal issues that have plagued our state for years, we need a permanent fiscal plan, a plan that will put our state on solid footing for decades to come.\nTo be fair, this isn\u2019t a new struggle for our state, we\u2019ve struggled with this before. When Alaska first became flush with oil money from Prudhoe Bay, many were focused on spending as much as possible.\nHowever, there were some in the Legislature, even back then, who were concerned about where we were headed.\nI\u2019d like to take a moment to introduce Dick Randolph from Fairbanks. Dick is a former teacher, an insurance agent and a retired legislator, who in the 1970s and early 1980s had the foresight to understand that the People of Alaska, through constitutional amendments and the initative process, could help us control our spending and develop a sustainable fiscal plan.\nEnlightened legislators, such as Representative Randolph, trusting the People of Alaska, put forth a number of constitutional amendments, including the Permanent Fund, to try to bring order to the spending mania.\nRepresentative Randolph, please stand. I want to thank you for your foresight and wisdom, coupled with the belief that the people, individual Alaskans, through constitutional amendments, are the key to securing Alaska\u2019s future. Thank you, Dick.\nAnd for those of us in the room today, we have an opportunity to work together and complete the process those enlightened legislators started many decades ago.\nTherefore, next week I will introduce three constitutional amendments, which will be the foundation of a permanent fiscal plan.\nIf we wish to win the People\u2019s trust, we must trust the People. This fiscal plan is empowered by the People, for the People:\nFirst, a spending limit and savings plan that will keep politicians from spending every penny we have, one that allows us to save excess revenue when possible for future Alaskans.\nSecond, there should be no change to the PFD without a vote of the people.\nThe third constitutional amendment will call for no change in taxes without a vote of the People.\nThese three constitutional amendments will require that both the people of Alaska and their elected officials work closely together to secure our future. The People are the key to a permanent fiscal plan. Without the People\u2019s support, any plan put in place by the Legislature will always be in doubt.\nAnother key component in securing Alaska\u2019s future are investments and jobs. Politicians often talk about policies and laws, but what Alaskans really care about, are jobs, opportunities, and individual freedoms. With jobs come independence, self-reliance, self-respect, thriving communities, and hope for the future.\nThere\u2019s no doubt our economy is struggling. There\u2019s no doubt when people don\u2019t have opportunities, hope fades.\nWhile the rest of the country\u2019s economy has been booming for years, Alaska remains mired in recession with the worst unemployment rate in the nation. Let that sink in for a moment.\nI will be a relentless advocate for turning this around. I\u2019ve said that we\u2019re going to make Alaska \u201copen for business\u201d \u2013 and that\u2019s exactly what we\u2019re going to do.\nWe often talk about diversifying the economy. The irony is, years ago, some would say Alaska had more of a diversified economy than we do today. We had more Alaskans engaged in commercial fishing, mining, agriculture, and a once-robust timber industry.\nHowever, since Prudhoe Bay came online, we have become more narrowly focused on oil and government programs as the basis for our economy, while neglecting other opportunities that could create more jobs and wealth for our state.\nFor Alaska to fully realize our potential, including our location on the globe, our vast resources, and unbridled quality of life, we must look to other industries and investments to come to Alaska.\nAs a result, we have put together a team that will market Alaska to the world. It\u2019s a team of experts with backgrounds in finance, marketing, and research that will inform investors, industries, and individuals that Alaska is open for business and we want new business here.\nOur location on the globe is a distinct advantage.\nThe third-busiest cargo hub in the world is also an advantage to doing business here in Alaska.\nOur proximity to Asia and Europe is an advantage.\nOur quality of life is a distinct advantage as well.\nAlaska doesn\u2019t have to be just a resource state. We have so much more to offer. It is my goal to be able to report to you in the near future about all of the new industries coming to Alaska, because of these efforts.\nFor those who have little hope that Alaska can diversify its economy, we need only to look to two small Alaska companies that, through good old-fashioned capitalism and entrepreneurship, created thriving businesses right here in our state.\nOne of these businesses, Triverus, is located in Palmer and owned by Hans Vogel.\nHis company was awarded a contract by the Department of Defense for a machine that cleans the decks of the entire U.S. aircraft carrier fleet. These machines are designed, engineered, and manufactured right here in Alaska and shipped all over the world. He does this with no tax credits or subsidies from the state.\nI repeat \u2014 no tax credits and no subsidies from the state government.\nAnother company thriving here in Alaska is Bambino\u2019s Baby Food, owned by Zoi Maroudas. She noticed customers were not happy with the quality of baby food available \u2014 and Zoi responded. She started the company right here in Alaska and now employs 25 Alaskans. By the end of this month, she plans to begin exporting to Asia.\nThis is what I am talking about. This is the future of Alaska.\nZoi and Hans, you both demonstrate to us all that there are boundless opportunities for Alaska to diversify our economy. Zoi is in the gallery tonight and I would ask her to stand. Hans is unfortunately weathered out of Juneau this evening. I want to thank you both for the example you have set for Alaska.\nWhile all of these initiatives I\u2019ve presented so far are critical to securing Alaska\u2019s future, in the end, our primary responsibility and the most important thing a government can do is keep its citizens safe.\nWe all know crime is out of control. Everyone in this room has either been affected by crime or knows someone who has.\nAnd when it comes to sexual assault, Alaska stands alone. Our sexual assault rate is the highest in the nation.\nTo put this in perspective, New York City has a sexual assault rate of 28 incidences per 100,000 people. Compare this to Anchorage, which has 132 sexual assaults per 100,000 people. That\u2019s almost five times that of New York City. Let that sink in.\nThis is an outrage. Plain and simple. The women and children of Alaska, must be made safe, and we have an obligation, all of us in this room, to do everything we possibly can to stop this scourge in Alaska. We can no longer stand by and allow this to be the reality that faces Alaskans every day.\nIn addition to sexual assault, our murder rate is horrific. Tonight, I would like to recognize two Alaskan families who know firsthand the personal devastation that comes from violent crime. Edie and Ben Grunwald from Palmer, who lost their son David; and Scotty and Aaliyah Barr from Kotzebue, who lost a daughter and a sister, Ashley. \u00ad\u00ad\u00ad\u00ad\u00ad\u00ad\u00ad\u00ad\nUnfortunately, we all know their tragic stories too well \u2014 two beautiful young Alaskans taken from their families by individuals who have no regard for human life.\nScotty and Aaliyeah Barr are here with us tonight, I would ask them to please stand. The Grundwald family was unfortunately unable to make it due to weather. Thank you having the strength to be here with us tonight.\nEdie, Ben, Scotty, and Aaliyah, I speak for all of those here today, and every Alaskan: We are heartbroken and mourn with you over this senseless loss. Nobody should have to go through the devastation and pain you have endured. But know this, the loss of Ashley and David has mobilized Alaska. Your loss is going to be the catalyst that will push us forward into a safer Alaska.\nAnd I say to you, and to everyone, today begins a new day in our state. From this day forward, we will not cater to the criminals and ignore the victims. We will not make excuses and turn a blind eye. I ask everyone in this room tonight \u2013 and across Alaska \u2014 to join in making Alaska the safest state in the country.\nThere is a lot that government should not do, cannot do, or does not do well. But the most important thing a government must do is keep its people safe. History will judge those of us in this room tonight on how we respond to this crisis. At what point do we say enough is enough? I say that time is now.\nTherefore, we will expend the necessary resources for additional State Troopers, provide more local control, and more prosecutors. We will ensure that our courts will remain open five full days a week in order to hear cases. We will provide the focus and the resources necessary to combat the scourge of opiates and other illicit drugs driving up our crime rates and ruining lives.\nAnd we will repeal and replace SB 91. A series of bills and initiatives to be introduced tomorrow will not only roll back SB91, but will help Alaska turn the corner to a safer tomorrow.\nTo our legislators, I\u2019m asking you to make public safety a priority and move forward with due diligence on reviewing and considering this public safety package.\nTo law-abiding Alaskans, I say this to you: I care if your house is burglarized. I care if your car is stolen. And I care if your loved ones are threatened.\nBut to the criminals, and to the rapists and molesters who see women and children as nothing more than opportunities, I say this to you: We will do everything in our power to stop you, apprehend you, and put you in prison for a very long time.\nFor those Alaskans who have made a mistake and have gotten involved with opiates or other drugs and want help, we are a compassionate people as well. Therefore, as part of our public safety approach we will provide ways for you to break this habit and get back into society and be productive individuals.\nBut let me be perfectly clear. If you are a criminal, this is going to be a very dangerous place for you, starting now. I strongly suggest you get out while you can. No more coddling, no more excuses. Your days are over.\nI\u2019m going to go to great lengths to make sure we are safer, and you will see that reflected in my budget.\nWith SB 91, we broke the People\u2019s trust and now is the time to restore it. By doing the right things, we can fix what is broken and restore the trust that was lost.\nI\u2019m here to serve the People of Alaska. I\u2019m here to work with you, the Legislature. I\u2019m here because, like all of you, I believe in this great state. I\u2019m here tonight because Alaskans want to chart a different course. I\u2019ve made promises that I intend to keep.\nWe\u2019re all part of the greatest experiment in self-government in the history of the world: A government by the People, for the People and of the People. As for me, that in part means this:\nThat all the special interests, all the political insiders, all those used to manipulating government and policy for their own benefit \u2014 this is just not your time.\nI promise you now, what I promised during the campaign. Things will be different; things will be very different. Together we are tasked with righting the wrongs that have broken the trust of the Alaska People. And I\u2019ll work with all my energy, dedication, and ability to do exactly what I promised you I would do.\nI look forward to working with each and every one of you in this room. No more of the tired old approaches:\nWe must reduce senseless crime.\nWe must balance our budget.\nWe must protect the PFD.\nWe must grow our economy and put Alaskans back to work.\nAnd by doing this the Alaskan people will once again trust their leaders.\nThank you for allowing me to speak to you this evening.\nGod bless you, and God bless the great State of Alaska.",

        "raw_content": "Icelandic New Energy\nEco-Friendly Transportation in Whale watching in Iceland\nNorth of Iceland in a town called H\u00fasav\u00edk is a very forward thinking whale watching company called North sailing. In their fleet they is a transformed electrical schooner \u201cOpal\u201d. This vessel has an outer appearance of a traditional gaff rigged sailing ship, but is without a doubt the most technologically advance ship in the North sailing fleet.\nOpal is the first ship in the world to feature specifically designed Regenerative Plug-In Hybrid Propulsion System, and is equipped to recharge the batteries while under sails. On a day-to-day basis, the ship\u2019s batteries will be recharged when docked, utilizing the sustainable, green energy of Iceland\u2019s power grid, much of which is supplied by Landsvirkjun, the National Power Company of Iceland. During whale watching tours, the electric motor will silently propel the boat, but when the ship is under sails, the propeller blades can be modified and used to recharge the ship\u2019s batteries. This technique has never been used on a sea vessel before.\nThe new electric system is not only eco-friendly and carbon-free, but it also minimizes the disturbance to the whales, enabling the ship and its passengers to get closer to the majestic animals. From this day on, Opal will run solely on eco-friendly electricity, and the old diesel engine will only be used for emergencies. Along with the engine changes, the ship\u2019s hull has been overhauled and strengthened, and the sailing gear has been modified to better utilize the wind energy.\nJ\u00f3n Bj\u00f6rn Sk\u00falason, General Manager of Icelandic New Energy, says that North Sailing\u2019s developmental work has not gone unnoticed and that it has been carefully monitored from abroad: \u201cThis project has utilized technology from many different sources, coming together in a unique, never-before-seen, novelty. I think this is one of the biggest events in the utilization of eco-friendly energy that has taken place in Iceland in a long time.\u201d Icelandic New Energy\u2019s largest shareholders are the Icelandic State, Reykjav\u00edk Energy, Landsvirkjun and HS Orka.\nAbout The Schooner Opal\nThe Schooner Opal is one of the latest additions to North Sailing\u2019s Fleet. Built at Bodenwerft shipyard in Damgarten, Germany in 1951, she served as a trawler in the Baltic \u2013 and North Sea, and in the Barents Sea. In 1973, new owners started her restoration. During eight years until 1981, Opal was converted to the elegant but seaworthy, double masted schooner she is today. She has sailed all over the world, completing several trans-Atlantic crossings, being carefully maintained through the years. Opal remained with the same owners, until becoming part of North Sailing\u2019s fleet in early 2013. She has undergone restoration and had interior work done to better fit her for the new purpose as an expedition ship.\nAbout North Sailing\nNorth Sailing is a family owned company, founded in H\u00fasav\u00edk in 1995. It was the first whale watching tour operator in Iceland to offer regular whale watching tours. The company has grown steadily, along with its growing number of customers, and the fleet has grown from one ship to eight. Apart from the Whale Watching, North Sailing owns and runs the restaurant Gamli Baukur, the coffee house Hvalbakur, and the H\u00fasav\u00edkurslippur shipyard. North Sailing has received numerous honors and awards internationally and domestically for consistently delivering outstanding quality experiences for its customers.\nTagged eco-friendly sailing, Husavik, Iceland, Icelandic New Energy, Innovation Center Iceland, Landsvirkjun, North sailing, recharge batteries, Regenerative Plug-In Hybrid Propulsion System, The Schooner OpalLeave a comment",

Yang\u2019s spectrum of allusions and visions walks a thin line between social inquiry and history, personal life and collective memory, yielding imagery and experiences of enormous evocative power, in which objects, figures, and places are inextricably linked.\nFrom the minimalist approach of the first room to the lush exuberance of the last, by the way of the multisensory installation Cittadella (2011), the exhibition reflects the different extremes that are touched by Yang\u2019s ongoing process of experimentation, where chance encounters with an object or material are prone to generate unexpected forms, emotions, and narratives, and where the rejection of entrenched ideas always opens up new perspectives.\nEdited by Bruna Roccasalva and published by Skira, a fully illustrated anthology has been conceived in bilingual edition (English/Italian), in conjunction with this exhibition. The anthology includes a total of 14 of the most significant essays and in-depth interviews on the artist\u2019s work from 2006 to 2018, and features a large selection of images of landmark pieces and works on display. The book will be available under the same title as this exhibition, Haegue Yang: Tightrope Walking and Its Wordless Shadow.\nSunday November 4, on the occasion of the finissage, the conversation-concert Encountering Isang Yun, dedicated to the Korean composer Isang Yun (1917-1995) will take place in the exhibition rooms. The cellist Francesco Dillon will perform the piece Gliss\u00e9es (1970) and, along with the musicologist Elena Abbado, will introduce the work of Isang Yun.\nFurthermore, every weekend special guided tours and educational workshops are available (booking required) for families, led by the Education Department of La Triennale di Milano.",

        "raw_content": "Remembering a most special Memorial Day\nMemorial Day is a day that America has set aside to remember those who died while serving our country in the armed forces. From what I have read, Memorial Day originated after the Civil War as an effort to remember those who had fallen in that way, and by the turn of the 20th century had become a time for our nation to remember all of those who paid the ultimate sacrifice. On this Memorial Day 2015, I am spending a relaxing day off with my family. However, on Memorial Day 2012, my family had an awesome privilege that we will never forget. On this day three years ago, we were here\u2026\nLater on our trip to Washington D.C. we visited the Vietnam Memorial. I had always wanted to see it particularly because I have a family member whose name is one of 50,000+ inscribed on that wall. My mom\u2019s brother, Royce Hall, was drafted during the Vietnam War and died there. My mom was pregnant with me when that happened, so I never had the privilege of meeting my uncle Royce. It was a great privilege to take my boys there, find his name, and spend a few minutes remembering him. Below is a photo of Daniel tracing his name on the wall.\nOn this day, Americans often say that \u201cour freedom isn\u2019t free\u201d but three years ago today my family was reminded of that in a very tangible way. On this (and every) Memorial Day, we remember and we say, \u201cThank you\u201d and \u201cMay God bless America.\u201d\nEncourage a mother this Mother\u2019s Day\nSunday is Mother\u2019s Day 2015. My Mother\u2019s Day sermon is ready and plans are made to honor our mothers here at Lakeside on Sunday. I am so very grateful for my own mother, Janice Corbin, who raised me to love the Lord and provided for me in countless ways. I am very grateful for my wife, Becky, who is a great mother to our two boys. So, Mother\u2019s Day is a happy occasion at our house. For some reason, this week I have thought about the fact that Mother\u2019s Day is a hard day for many mothers \u2013 or those desperately desiring to be mothers.\n\u201cSo Abraham rose early in the morning and took bread and a skin of water and gave them to Hagar, putting them on her shoulder, and gave her the boy, and sent her away. And she departed and wandered about in the wilderness of Beersheba. When the water in the skin was used up, she left the boy under one of the bushes. Then she went and sat down opposite him, about a bowshot away, for she said, \u201cDo not let me see the boy die.\u201d And she sat opposite him, and lifted up her voice and wept.\u201d (Genesis 21:14\u201316, NASB95)\nI won\u2019t take the space to go into the details of this particular Old Testament passage, but suffice it to say that Hagar was caught in a very difficult family situation and she was left as a single mother who did not know how she would provide for her son. She wept. Unfortunately, there will be many ladies who are weeping on Mother\u2019s Day.\nSingle mothers. Whatever the reasons, there will be many mothers in church on Mother\u2019s Day who are single moms. For some, it could be their first Mother\u2019s Day as a single mom. Many single mothers have been through terribly hurtful situations and struggle financially. The overwhelming majority of single mothers never dreamed they would ever be single mothers, but they are and it is not easy.\nThose who have lost their mother. I have known very faithful Christians who stay away from church on Mother\u2019s Day because it is just too painful. Many others come on to church on Mother\u2019s Day, but they fight through their own tears during the entire service.\nThose who have lost children. No matter if it was an infant or a grown adult, the trauma of burying a child never goes away. Mother\u2019s Day serves as yet another reminder of their loss.\nThose who struggle to have children. The pain of infertility is very real. Mother\u2019s Day is not a joyous day for those couples who want a child more than anything.\nBroken relationships. Sometimes we forget that not every son or daughter goes to see or calls their mother on Mother\u2019s Day. These mothers live with the pain of broken family relationships every day.\nThis list is certainly not exhaustive, but these five scenarios came to mind as the most common reasons that many struggle on Mother\u2019s Day. If your church has more than 50 people in attendance, I will near guarantee you that each of these five scenarios will be represented in the pews on Mother\u2019s Day. Sometimes those of who who look forward to Mother\u2019s Day don\u2019t think about that fact.\nSo, this Mother\u2019s Day make sure you honor your own mother, but why don\u2019t you take it a step further. Encourage another mother who is hurting this weekend. It could be as simple as a good word of encouragement or it could mean blessing them financially or otherwise. Think about it. Pray about it. Then do something!",

        "raw_content": "Minimum Wage Part 2: Signal Detection Theory\n\u201cThere are unemployed people who would be much happier working for $5 an hour than being unemployed. If they want to work for that amount, why should the government prevent that? Isn\u2019t having a low-paying job better than having no job at all?\u201d\nLet\u2019s call this Standard Argument #2 against Minimum Wages. (I have talked about Standard Argument #1 in an earlier post.)\nIn response to Standard Argument #2, I would like you to consider that there are actually two groups of people who are impacted by minimum wage legislation:\nOn the one hand, there are the people who are unemployed, who would be employed at $5 per hour if that were allowed, but who now cannot get a job because their prospective employers have decided that they cannot (or will not) pay $7.50 per hour for the work that the job entails.\nOn the other hand, there are people who are employed at $7.50 per hour, because the company has decided that they can afford to pay that amount for the work that the job entails, but who would be only getting $5.00 per hour if the minimum wage law were not in effect.\nAs minimum wage increases, there will be more people in both groups. One of these is a bad thing, the other is a good thing.\nIn the case of the first group, it is a bad thing. More people unemployed means more people suffering. It is also worse for the system at large, because these are now people who cannot buy things and cannot contribute to the functioning of the economy overall.\nIn the case of the second group, it is a good thing. These are families that now can provide better for themselves and their families because of the law, than they would be able to without the law. They can buy more products and services, and the economy overall benefits.\nAs minimum wage keeps increasing, you assume that the cost of paying for the employees eventually becomes prohibitive: so the number of people in the first group increases faster than the number of people in the second group. Obviously, in that scenario, one can objectively and rationally say that minimum wage is too high. The down-side outweighs the up-side.\nBut where is the \u201csweet spot,\u201d as it were? Where is that point that minimizes the number of people in Group 1 while maximizing the number of people in Group 2?\nThis is not a theoretical or ideological question: this is a scientific question. This is a question that you can only answer by looking at data.\nIn fact, science actually has an entire framework for understanding this type of problem (in the abstract), and that is called \u201cSignal Detection Theory.\u201d\nIn standard Signal Detection Theory, you have a situation where there is something in the world that is either present or not. (It could be a signal, or it could be anything else. It could be anything from \u201cDid the doorbell ring?\u201d to \u201cIs there a God?\u201d) You, as an observer, have to try to guess, based on whatever evidence you have available, whether that thing is present or not. You could be right, or you could be wrong. In fact, there are four possibilities:\nIt\u2019s possible that the thing exists (e.g. the doorbell rang, God exists, whatever) and you correctly say that it does.\nIt\u2019s possible that the thing does not exist (e.g. the doorbell did not ring, God doesn\u2019t exist) and you correctly say that it does not.\nIt\u2019s possible that the thing exists, but you say it doesn\u2019t (they call this a \u201cmiss\u201d).\nIt\u2019s possible that the thing does not exist, but you say that it does (they call this a \u201cfalse alarm\u201d).\nLet\u2019s imagine a situation where you are repeatedly being asked to tell whether a doorbell rang. Let\u2019s say it\u2019s a soft doorbell, and sometimes you are not completely sure. What strategy do you use?\nIf you are really frightened of misses, you can simply be biased toward saying the bell rang. All you do is say \u201cYes, it rang!\u201d almost every time. That way, you will have almost no misses. The trade-off is that you will have a lot of false alarms.\nOn the other hand, if you are terrified of false alarms, you can raise the bar really high. You can hold off and almost never say \u201cYes, it rang!\u201d unless you are absolutely positively sure. That way, you will have almost no false alarms. On the other hand, you will have a lot of misses.\nSomewhere in between the two, there is an \u201cideal spot\u201d: there is a place where you get as few false alarms as possible while at the same time getting as few misses as possible.\nThis kind of set-up can also be used to look at the Minimum Wage issue.\nRemember what Minimum Wage is really trying to do: it\u2019s trying to identify the maximum wage that a company really can afford to pay for unskilled labor, even though they might prefer not to. By identifying the maximum wage that the company can afford, you maximize the benefit to the worker without \u201cbreaking\u201d the business model of the company and putting them out of business.\nIn this case, a \u201cmiss\u201d is a situation where the government says \u201cthe company can\u2019t afford to pay that amount\u201d but the company really can afford it. A \u201cmiss\u201d represents the company taking advantage of the worker, under-paying the worker compared to how much they really could afford.\nOn the other hand, a \u201cfalse alarm\u201d is a situation where the government says \u201cthe company sure can afford to pay that!\u201d but the company really cannot. A \u201cfalse alarm\u201d represents the company being so burdened by the minimum wage law that it actually makes it impossible for the company to function.\nAs minimum wage increases, the number of \u201cmisses\u201d will decrease, and the number of \u201cfalse alarms\u201d will increase. It\u2019s like increasing your bias to say \u201cthe bell rang!\u201d in the doorbell experiment. Set the bar too far in one direction, you get too much of one type of error; go too far in the other direction, you get too much of the other type of error.\nSomewhere in between, there is the \u201ccorrect\u201d threshold: the threshold that minimizes both types of \u201cerror.\u201d Somewhere in between, there is a minimum wage that leads to the least number of companies being burdened to the point of being put out of business, but also leads to the least number of employees being under-paid and taken advantage of.\nThe real work in this debate isn\u2019t to crow about how some companies might be burdened or about how some employees might be taken advantage of; the real work in this debate is looking at the real data, the real numbers, and finding out the practical balance between those two.\n< Minimum Wage Part 1: Ethics\nWhy you should support Obamacare, in 4 sentences. >\nMinimum Wage Part 1: Ethics says:\n[\u2026] call this Standard Argument #1 against Minimum Wages. (I talk about Standard Argument #2 in a later [\u2026]",

        "title": "Error-riddled 'SuperFreakonomics,' Part 4 | Grist",
        "raw_content": "This post looks at Nobelist Krugman\u2019s first take-down of the single most stunning economic error in SuperFreakonomics. I\u2019ll also take on the authors disingenuous response to the critics (including me), \u201cThe Rumors of Our Global-Warming Denial Are Greatly Exaggerated.\u201d\nNo, I don\u2019t know any critics who called them global warming \u201cdeniers\u201d \u2014 I don\u2019t use the word in my critiques. The authors are disingenuously trying to take the high ground by misrepresenting their opponents and creating strawmen, which is their modus operandi in the book. The primary climatologist the book relies on, Ken Caldeira, said in an extended email interview with me \u201cit is an inaccurate portrayal of me\u201d and \u201cmisleading\u201d in \u201cmany\u201d places. Levitt and Dubner use the far-far-out James Lovelock as the primary scientific foil in their discussion in order to make their nonsensical views seem plausible (see \u201cLovelock still makes me look like Paula Abdul, warns climate war could kill nearly all of us, leaving survivors in the Stone Age\u201c).\nStill, it\u2019s worth remembering, the book contains these two inane sentences (among many, many others as I\u2019ve shown in Part 1, Part 2, and Part 3):\n\u201cAny religion, meanwhile, has its heretics, and global warming is no exception.\u201d\n\u201cIn other words: it\u2019s illogical to believe in a carbon-induced warming apocalypse and believe that such an apocalypse can be averted simply by curtailing new carbon emissions.\u201d\nThe authors aren\u2019t deniers per se, but the book is staggeringly anti-scientific and illogical.\nAnd the economics, what little of it there is in the chapter, is utterly wrong. Krugman just savaged them this morning on their biggest howler. The Superfreaks write:\nDo the future benefits from cutting emissions outweigh the costs of doing so? Or are we better off waiting to cut emissions later \u2014 or even, perhaps, polluting at will and just learning to live in a hotter world?\nThe economist Martin Weitzman analyzed the best available climate models and concluded that the future holds a 5 percent chance of a terrible-case scenario \u2014 a rise of more than 10 degrees Celsius.\nAmazing. In one sentence, which they never ran by Weitzman, they get his entire thesis ass backwards (and misquote him, too). As Krugman explains:\nYikes. I read Weitzman\u2019s paper, and have corresponded with him on the subject \u2014 and it\u2019s making exactly the opposite of the point they\u2019re implying it makes. Weitzman\u2019s argument is that uncertainty about the extent of global warming makes the case for drastic action stronger, not weaker. And here\u2019s what he says about the timing of action:\nThe conventional economic advice of spending modestly on abatement now but gradually ramping up expenditures over time is an extreme lower bound on what is reasonable rather than a best estimate of what is reasonable.\nAgain, we\u2019re not even getting into substance \u2014 just the basic issue of representing correctly what other people said.\nI correspond with Weitzman also. While I don\u2019t agree with him 100%, I am of fan of his work (see Harvard economist: Climate cost-benefit analyses are \u201cunusually misleading,\u201d warns colleagues \u201cwe may be deluding ourselves and others\u201d). And that\u2019s how I know that Weitzman has NOT \u201canalyzed the best available climate models and concluded that the future holds a 5 percent chance of a terrible-case scenario \u2014 a rise of more than 10 degrees Celsius.\u201d If you read his published paper in Review of Economics and Statistics (February 2009), \u201cOn modeling and interpreting the economics of catastrophic climate change,\u201d you\u2019ll see he writes:\nThe upper 5% probability level averaged over all 22 climate-sensitivity studies cited in IPCC-AR4 (2007) is 7\u00b0C.\nAlso for Weitzman 10 C isn\u2019t the \u201cterrible-case scenario\u201d \u2014 it\u2019s \u201cterra incognita,\u201d a \u201cworldwide catastrophe.\u201d In a new draft of his analysis, which he just sent me, he suggests two possible damage functions whereby a 10 C warming would lead to a loss of social welfare of 83% to 99%!!! He writes \u201cA temperature increase of 4C is likely to have some very serious consequences.\u201d In his published paper he writes:\nAs a recent Science commentary put it: \u201cOnce the world has warmed by 4\u00b0C, conditions will be so different from anything we can observe today (and still more different from the last ice age) that it is inherently hard to say where the warming will stop.\u201d\nWhen I sent the one sentence from Superfreakonomics to Weitzman \u2014 writing, \u201cI thought 6C warming was the \u2018terrible\u2019 case you consider and that\u2019s what had a 5% chance\u201d \u2014 he wrote back:\nYou are right. Is their book already out, or is there still a chance to clarify this?\nNeedless to say, had the Superfreaks run their statement by Weitzman \u2014 or had even the slightest clue what he was arguing \u2014 they never would have written what they did. It is an amateurish mistake.\nLet me end with some comments on Levitt\u2019s recent blog post, \u201cThe Rumors of Our Global-Warming Denial Are Greatly Exaggerated.\u201d First, he whines:\nSuperFreakonomics isn\u2019t even on sale yet, and the attacks on our chapter about\nglobal warming are already underway.\nA prominent environmental blogger has attacked us. A well-known environmental-advocacy group pressured NPR into reading a statement critical of the book at the end of an interview I had given on Scott Simon\u2019s Weekend Edition show. Even Paul Krugman and Brad DeLong got in on the action before they\u2019d even read the book.\nLaughable \u2014 and disingenuous.\nThe book isn\u2019t even on sale yet \u2014 and Levitt is already misleading the public on NPR! I\u2019ll deal with that interview tomorrow. But if Levitt can spread disinformation on the airwaves before his book is out, then he can hardly complain that people are attacking him.\nSecond, you\u2019ll see how he characterizes me as an \u201cenvironmental blogger\u201d and \u201cThe Union of Concerned Scientists\u201d as an environmental-advocacy group. That\u2019s because he\u2019s trying to frame this debate as the scientists he talked to versus environmentalists (like Gore, their other whipping boy in the book). In fact, the truth is that we have a whole bunch of scientists \u2014 including the primary climatologist he talked \u2014 versus two non-scientists who don\u2019t know what they are talking about on climate science, climate solutions, or climate economics.\nWe are working on a thorough response to these critics, which we hope to post on the blog in the next day or two. The bottom line is that the foundation of these attacks is essentially fraudulent, as we\u2019ll spell out in detail. In the meantime, let us just say the following\u2026.\nThe critics are implying that we dismiss any threats from global warming; but the entire point of our chapter is to discuss global-warming solutions, so obviously that\u2019s not the case.The statements being circulated create the false impression that our analysis of the global-warming crisis is ideological and unscientific. Nothing could be further from the truth.\nIt their analysis that is \u201cessentially fraudulent\u201d as I and many others have shown. Nobody is saying or \u201cimplying\u201d they \u201cdismiss any threats from global warming.\u201d That\u2019s another strawman.\nTheir analysis is clearly unscientific, but again I don\u2019t know anyone who has claimed it is \u201cideological,\u201d except in the sense that they know how to make a lot of money and get a lot of media coverage by pushing a contrarian viewpoint. Now if contrarianism wholly overwhelms one\u2019s rationality to the point where a person is contrarian despite the facts but merely for the sake of being contrarian, then I suppose that is an ideology.\nI\u2019ll blog more on the Superfreaks tomorrow. Yes, I\u2019m blogging a great deal on this, but besides the obvious interest that my posts have generated \u2014 Part 1 is already easily the most widely read post I\u2019ve written this year \u2014 I think are having an impact and, as Part 5 will make clear, these guys are about to launch a major media/disinformation blitz.",

        "raw_content": "Stromatolites:\n3.9-Million-Year-Old Living Marvels That Refute The Theory Of Evolution\nThe oldest known fossils belong to bacteria that lived some 3.9 billion years ago. That is why evolutionists have claimed that the first single-celled bacterium emerged spontaneously, by chance, from inanimate matter. In order to be able to corroborate this myth, Darwinists refer to the first bacterium in question as a \u201csimple\u201d organism. In their eyes, this life form with supposedly simple characteristics, must have been influenced at random by various environmental circumstances and conditions and have undergone changes, always positive, and must have acquired various miraculous characteristics \u2013 such as producing its own nutrients and starting to replicate by mitosis from meiosis \u2013 again all by chance. But in order for this to transpire that unconscious bacterium would have to go even further and start thinking, it would have to have made various decisions and established colonies. It would also have to be capable of biochemical communications with other bacteria and eventually become the complex life form it is now. This illogical and irrational claim made by Darwinists was widely accepted due to the ignorance of the time, when science had not made much progress, and was heralded as a scientific fact. But this has all changed in the 21st century.\nThe major scientific advances taking place today have totally undermined the idea of a \u201cprimitive first bacterium\u201d because current research in the light of advanced technology has revealed that these, the smallest life forms on earth, are not at all simple, as Darwinists maintain, that they have highly important and complex attributes, and that they could only have been created in a single moment by a sublime Mind and with an incomparable Knowledge. The fact revealed by science is that Allah has created bacteria, like all other living things.\nBacteria Are Essential For Life On Earth\nA chemical laboratory made up of elements we cannot see with the naked eye, that works non-stop and supports our survival, is present in all of nature. The bacteria we are considering in this chapter, each one of which is a miracle of creation, are expert chemists that make use of nature as a laboratory. A great many of the features of bacteria are still unknown because the size of these life forms, around 0.001 millimeters (3.93700787 \u00d7 10-5 inches), generally makes it impossible to study their internal structures properly. However, the available data still describe the systems in these life forms to us.\nThe pictures show three types of cyanobacteria. (a: Nostoc, b: Oscillatoria, and c: Gleocapsa). These bacteria, which live in clean waters, have exceptionally complex chlorophyll. By means of these systems, which are almost as complex as plant chloroplasts, cyanobacteria perform the process of photosynthesis in nature. Nostoc cyanobacteria also play an important role in nitrogen transformation and the \"fixing\" of atmospheric nitrogen.\nBacteria are not primitive, as evolutionists like to claim. On the contrary, they possess complex systems that prove that they could not have come into being through a gradual process of evolution. There are many species of bacteria in nature, all with different characteristics.\nCyanobacteria represent the most complex group of bacteria, which exhibit these different features. However, this description is still far from describing cyanobacteria\u2019s characteristics and the wonderful functions they perform. Cyanobacteria possess very special cellular architectures and complex intra-cellular communications systems.\nEven 3.9 billion years ago, cyanobacteria were marvelous and fully equipped life forms capable of making photosynthesis, carrying out nitrogen fixation (nitrogen that cannot be used in a gaseous form assuming the form of usable compounds), capable of movement without the bacterial whip (flagella) and using a string of proteins in order to make such motion possible.\nThe Glorious Characteristics Of Cyanobacteria That Refute Evolution\nCyanobacteria, also known as blue-green algae, are the oldest known prokaryotes, single-celled organisms, obtaining their energy through photosynthesis.1 These life forms can manufacture the carbon they use for processes within the cell from the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. At the same time, they are able to fix nitrogen gas in molecular form. The fact that these processes take place in the same place requires careful reflection and totally refutes the evolutionists idea that these life forms are \u201cprimitive.\u201d\nThe enzyme nitrogenase, which is responsible for nitrogen fixation, is exceedingly sensitive to oxygen. For that reason, nitrogen fixation and the process of photosynthesis, which requires oxygen, should not be able to take place at the same time in cyanobacteria cells. In order to overcome this difficulty, the filaments in some cyanobacteria restrict the nitrogen fixation process with a special kind of cell known as heterocysts.\nWith their unique structure, heterocyst cells enable these two incompatible processes to be performed by the cyanobacteria.\nIn order to restrict the entry of oxygen, heterocyst cells are covered with a special sheath containing glycolipid and polysaccharide, a protective homogeneous envelope. A layer four nanometers thick develops through the interaction of waterproof chains, and this restricts the permeability of dissolved substances. Heterocysts have four separate membranes consisting of double-layer lipids, and these have different structures and functions.\nIn this way, carbon dioxide fixing through photosynthesis and nitrogen fixation in an oxygen-free environment, which cannot happen at the same time, are separated from one another, and cyanobacteria are able to discharge their functions.\nCyanobacteria Fossils: An Insoluble Dilemma For Evolutionists\nRock strata in the Apex Chert region of Australia contain cyanobacteria fossils, or stromatolites (stromatoliths), dating back 3.9 billion years.\nStromatolites form in shallow water with the accumulation and freezing of the sediment of micro-organisms such as cyanobacteria. Stromatolites began forming in the Precambrian Period and are formed by calcium carbonate particles (limestone) carried by the sea adhering to the filaments formed by blue-green algae.2 These structures are rich in chlorophyll. Over the geological ages they formed in globes or domes of various sized immediately beneath the surface of the sea.\nHuman beings and animals possess no mechanism allowing them to make direct use of solar energy. That energy can only be obtained by being synthesized as a result of the process of photosynthesis performed by green plants and micro-organisms. Cyanobacteria species that make photosynthesis produce more than half the oxygen in the atmosphere. The energy that these organisms manufacture with solar energy is stored in the form of simple sugars. This sugar is needed for the biochemical reactions essential for the survival and growth of living things on Earth, and also for respiration.\nAs well as oxygen and carbon dioxide, living things also need nitrogen (N2) in order to survive. Nitrogen represents one of the fundamental building blocks in the living body, especially in the structure of nucleic acids, proteins and vitamins. The Earth's atmosphere consists of approximately 78% nitrogen. However, despite their needing it, living things cannot absorb this nitrogen in the air into their bodies. This gas has to be converted in some way into a form that living things can make use of and then recycled back into the atmosphere if it is not to run out. That need is again met by microscopic bacteria.\nThe living things that must first absorb nitrogen from the air are plants. Plants cannot use nitrogen in gas form. Nitrogen is converted by nitrite bacteria into nitrite, and nitrate bacteria then convert that nitrite into nitrate, a form that plants can use.\nIn carrying out the nitrogen cycle, the bacteria that evolutionists describe as \u201csimple\u201d actually function like living chemical laboratories, as with photosynthesis, and have been performing complex chemical reactions, beyond the comprehension of anyone without a close knowledge of chemistry, since the day they were first created.\nFossil remains of the world\u2019s oldest micro-organism, dating back 3.9 billion years, have been found in Australia\u2019s Apex Chert region. The cyanobacteria fossils at the top and left were discovered in Apex Chert and are 3.5 billion years old.\nOne in every ten cells in the filamentlike cyanobacteria in the picture above is known as a heterocyst, and it is these cells, which are completely insulated from oxygen, that perform the task of fixing nitrogen.\nSome of the characteristics of cyanobacteria, those marvelous micro-organisms, that refute the claim of the theory of evolution that life forms came into beings by chance, may be summarized as follows:\nThe picture above shows images of the hexagonal and symmetrical \u201cS layer\u201d in cyanobacteria from above and from the side.\nThe theory of evolution has no meaningful answer to the highly esthetic appearance and symmetry in the architecture of these living things. It is impossible for this symmetry and flawless system to come about by chance.\nThe flawlessness in these tiny organisms clearly shows the creation of our Almighty Lord, the sublime Creator.\nThe stromatolite fossil record is exceedingly rich, and they have been around in various environments on Earth for some four billion years. They were initially discovered in Shark Bay, Australia in 1956. They are also found in the Bahamas, the Indian Ocean, Africa and the USA.\nStromatolites have a bacteria population of 3 billion per square meter. When these combine with sediments and organic materials and gradually grow to 10 million times their own size, they build structures up to 1.5 meters (5 feet) in size. Since they grow very slowly, a one meter stromatolite will be around 2,000 years old.8\nThe giant activities of cyanobacteria, those marvelous micro-organisms:\n\u2022 Cyanobacteria by themselves produce 30% of the Earth\u2019s annual amount of oxygen3; that figure is equivalent to the amount produced by all the green plants on Earth.\n\u2022 These bacteria are very small in size, but their production is enormous. There are more than 100 of them in a liter of water, and they account for 10% to 20% of the productivity of the oceans. Despite being invisible, they predominate over a large part of the Earth.\n\u2022 This form of bacterium is capable of performing very different processes (such as photosynthesis, nitrogen fixation (the process whereby nitrogen is turned into a form usable by living things) and respiration, within a single cell. This requires a matchless cell membrane system, as outlined above. For example, the bacteria need an oxygen-free environment for nitrogen fixation, but an oxygen-rich environment for all the other processes, and these require very different cell membranes. This architecture makes cyanobacteria one of the most complex members of the bacterial kingdom.4\n\u2022 In 1980, cyanobacteria were observed to possess a \u201ccircadian\u201d clock.5 A circadian clock is the automatic regulation of the body according to its external environment, seen in multi-celled organisms. Cyanobacteria have been observed to engage in photosynthesis and respiration by absorbing oxygen into their cells for 12 hours a day, while they perform nitrogen fixation for the other 12 hours.\n\u2022 Cyanobacteria are able to move in water without using flagellae (the bacterial whip). The secret behind the way these organisms can move without using any body part has still not been adequately explained, despite ongoing research for the last 20 years. The hexagonal layer known as the \u201cS layer,\u201d which makes up the most external layer of the cell, is three-dimensional and symmetrical. This layer is thought to play a role in cell movement. Because when the gene \u201cswm6,\u201d which expresses that symmetry, is subjected to mutation, the cell has been observed to be unable to move.6\n\u2022 Cyanobacteria are capable of manufacturing anticarcinogenic, antiviral and UV-protective substances. These characteristics mean they are used in genetic studies intended to benefit human beings. For example, the antiviral protein Cyaniovirin-N produced by the Cyanobacterium species Nostoc ellipsosporum neutralizes the HIV virus. This protein possesses the ability to adhere to the oligosaccharide structures that enable the HIV virus to attach to the cells. Studies on this subject are still being planned.7\nBacteria are not only found in the seas or water sources. They are also agents present in all living things, from the human body to termites living underground to the root hairs on a plant. These organisms have spread everywhere on Earth and have been discharging their functions with the same perfection for billions of years. All this of course points to one single truth: Creation.\nThe proponents of the theory of evolution are in fact perfectly well aware that these organisms are not simple at all. That is why they are in a constant state of difficulty and doubt when they try to describe the characteristics and mechanisms possessed by the perfect organisms in question. Evolution is an unscientific theory unable even to account for the existence of a micro-organism.\nThe science and technology that have made such advances in the 21st century have revealed, under the scanning electron microscope, a brand new world that again refutes the theory of evolution. Yet another has been added to the increasingly lengthy list of questions for Darwinists about life on Earth. Every piece of research, every new finding, every characteristic we encounter in living things, is a means whereby we can discover the flawless artistry created by Allah in invisible things and whereby we can properly appreciate it.\nBacterial strata gradually darken because of their sediments and move upward in order to reach the sunlight. As seen in the picture, one layer is added onto another and they eventually produce very large towers.\nThese fossil stromatolites in the Pilbara region of Australia date back to the Precambrian Era. The gray, convoluted layers show how stromatolites grow upward.\nThe stromatolites on this page have been living in the Hamelin Pool Basin of Shark Bay, Australia for 4,000 years.\nStromatolite fossils dating back 3.9 billion years can be found in other regions of Australia. There is absolutely no difference between these 3.9-billion-year-old fossil stromatolites and those living today. These organisms have never evolved.\nFossil Stromatolite\nPeriod:Precambrian\nAge: 2.4 - 2.2 billion years\nRegion:Michigan, USA\nThis stromatolite, one of the oldest-known microfossils in the fossil records, was found in Michigan in the United States of America.\nThis stromatolite fossil, some 2.4 billion years old, is a member of the cyanobacteria colonies, the oldest-known micro-organisms of Earth. Examination of stromatolites provides valuable information about the climate, geology, biodiversity and geography of the Earth billions of years in the past.\nLayers gradually form as calcium carbonate (limestone) builds up on the fibers of growing bacteria. Bacteria initiate this build-up by making photosynthesis using carbon dioxide from the water around.\nParticles and mineral dissolved in the water are trapped in the adhesive fluid surrounding the bacteria and continue to produce new strata by growing upward.\nThis process is repeated over and over again, and sedimentary layers form. The process is still continuing today.\nFossilized stromatolites dating back 3.9 billion years can be found in the sedimentary layers on all continents.\nPeriod: Precambrian\nRegion: Michigan, USA\nThis fossil was unearthed in the state of Michigan, USA, and is an example resembling marble of stromatolitic materials belonging to when life first appeared on Earth.\nMarble is a metamorphosed form of limestone. The green color so attractive to the eye is the result of serpentine, which forms when there is a high level of magnesium in the limestone. 9\nFossil stromatolites are colonies of cyanobacteria, the oldest known organisms. These bacteria that lived billions of years ago, seen fossilized among rock strata, have highly complex structures and are capable of manufacturing oxygen. The processes that these organisms carry out in their micro-bodies, too small to be seen with the naked eye, exhibit a perfection that today\u2019s advanced technology is nowhere near approaching. Cyanobacteria, which Darwinists claim are \u201cprimitive early life forms,\u201d make photosynthesis using sunlight and convert water into oxygen molecules as well as protons and electrons. The structures known as thylakoids they use for photosynthesis are located within the folds of the cell membrane. Thylakoids have special antennae known as phycobilisomes that collect light for photosystems. It is clear that such an architecture is not at all \u201cprimitive.\u201d\nConsidering both their structures and the processes they perform, these organisms, which date back 3.9 billion years, are not at all primitive, but have been highly complex ever since the moment they were first created.\nRegion:USA\nThis 2.4-billion-year Precambrian fossil stromatolite possesses striking colors and patterns. This species\u2019 red color, known as Tiger iron, is the result of jasper and black hematite (mineral iron). The contrasting bands of color form a striking pattern. It is generally used in jewelry and for decoration. Tiger iron essentially consists of silicon dioxide and is colored by iron oxide. 10\nCyanobacteria\u2019s moving mechanism involves highly detailed and unique processes.\nIn the daytime, cyanobacteria remain close to the surface for photosynthesis, and at night they sink to the bottom to gather nutrients. They use gas vacuoles (empty spaces) to do this and constantly change their locations in the water.\nIn contrast to other bacteria, cyanobacteria employ a slow glide in order to move; but since they have no whips, the mechanisms by which these organisms move is still not fully understood.\nComplex proteins play a role in the slow, gliding motion that enables the cells to change location, but the structure of the \u201cengine\u201d and how the chemical compounds work is still a mystery. Nonetheless this mechanism has remained unchanged for billions of years, and has never altered.\n1. http://www.newworldencyclopedia.org/entry/Cyanobacteria\n2. http://www.fossilmuseum.net/Tree_of_Life/Stromatolites.htm\n3.The Cyanobacteria.

        "title": "Drawbacks of the P90X Diet - P90X Diet: What You Need to Know | HowStuffWorks",
        "raw_content": "Drawbacks of the P90X Diet\nTwo of the three phases of the P90X Diet require you reduce your carbohydrate intakes below the minimum levels of carbs suggested by the Mayo Clinic.\nOne major drawback to this diet is the cost. To receive in-depth information about the diet, you need to order the P90X workout package, which costs $120 for the 90-day program. This doesn't include the additional costs of the dietary supplements that are sold separately. A package of 12 protein bars costs almost $24 before shipping and handling fees [source: Beachbody].\nMany of the dietary recommendations run contrary to those of respected organizations such as the American Heart Association and the Mayo Clinic. The P90X Diet is light on fruits and veggies, while the Mayo Clinic recommends unlimited servings [source: Mayo Clinic]. The AHA doesn't recommend high-protein diets due to health risks such as elevated ketone levels in the bloodstream.\nEliminating carbohydrates cuts water weight, one reason many low-carb diets offer quick results. Unfortunately, this weight is easily re-gained. The Mayo Clinic recommends a diet consisting of 45 to 65 percent carbohydrates, 10 to 35 percent protein, and 20 to 35 percent fat (consisting of good fats such as monounsaturated fats) [source: Mayo Clinic]. Two of the three phases of the P90X Diet prescribe carbohydrate intakes that do not meet the minimum levels of carbohydrates called for by the Mayo Clinic.\nAdditionally, the three phases of the diet vary quite a bit from one another, and if all three phases are incorporated during the 90-day program, the dieter will have changed their diet three times in as many months.\nWhile there are recipes supplied by the makers of P90X, there aren't enough recipes to keep you interested for too long past the initial 90 days.\nAnd what happens after 90 days? The designers of the P90X Diet don't have a clear suggestion for whether you should maintain one phase or the other, and some of this confusion results from the fact that the program itself is only designed to last 90 days. After that, people who've completed the program are encouraged to try other programs offered by the same company, many of which include specialized nutrition plans.\nIn addition to the roughly hour-long daily P90X workouts, maintaining the P90X Diet may be a pretty time-consuming pursuit for dieters. Not only will dieters track calorie intake and expenditure, but meal preparation must be in accordance with dietary guidelines that shift depending on the phase.\nThe P90X Diet isn't being presented by nutritionists or health care experts, but rather by a company that is bundling it together with a made-to-sell workout routine.\nIn the long run, it may be better to adopt a diet recommended by a reputable health care agency or not-for-profit organization.\nKeep reading for lots more information about different diets.\nDetox Diet: What You Need to Know\nWeight Watchers: What You Need to Know\nAmerican Heart Association. \"High-Protein Diets.\" (June 20, 2011) http://www.americanheart.org/presenter.jhtml?identifier=11234\nBeachbody. \"P90X Peak Performance Supplements.\" (June 20, 2011) http://www.beachbody.com/category/supplements/p90x_peak_performance.do\nGavin, Patrick. \"P90X: The congressional workout.\" June 14, 2011.

        "raw_content": "The Greatest Time to Own Gold\nFor thousands of years, mankind has used gold as money\u2026\nIt\u2019s a good choice, for a lot of reasons\u2026\nThe world only has a finite amount of gold, and you can\u2019t create any more. Further, all the gold ever mined \u2013 about 170,000 metric tons \u2013 would fit onto a football field piled to about 6.5 feet high. (At today\u2019s prices, that pile of gold is worth roughly $7 trillion or so.)\nIn addition, gold doesn\u2019t corrode or deteriorate, it\u2019s easily divisible, and\u2026 relative to other valuable assets you find in the natural world\u2026 it\u2019s portable.\nEven after the advent of modern currency, the U.S. government initially \u201cbacked\u201d its currency with gold (meaning the monetary unit represented a claim on some fraction of the government\u2019s gold stash).\nToday, that\u2019s no longer the case\u2026 Our money is no longer backed by gold.\nRegardless, investor affinity for gold continues. And I have consistently recommended holding a small position in what I call \u201cchaos hedges\u201d \u2013 gold, silver, timber, and even farmland \u2013 as protection against a currency collapse and global turmoil.\nThink of it like an insurance policy.\nThese chaos hedges historically provide comfort and protection during rough political and economic times\u2026 and can greatly enhance your portfolio returns.\nBut there are certain times when gold outperforms massively\u2026\nIn my investing lifetime, the best time to own gold has been when real returns on fixed-income securities turned negative.\nOne of the biggest knocks on gold is that it doesn\u2019t deliver any yield. So the metal looks a lot more attractive when rates turn negative.\nThis holds up over the long term. Using 10-year rates on Treasury notes and inflation, negative rates match up with rises in the price of gold.\nThis happens in the short term as well if we use the yield on a five-year Treasury security of 1.2% and the expected inflation rate for the next five years of 1.3% (which we derive from the market price of five-year Treasury Inflation Protected Securities, or \u201cTIPs\u201d).\nRight now, we have central banks around the globe driving down rates to negative territory and gold trading cheaper than it has for years. That makes it a good time to pick up some gold to balance your portfolio.\nI\u2019m confident that knowing the facts about gold will make a huge difference in your wealth over the coming decade\u2026\nThis is why I\u2019m extending an invitation to join Porter Stansberry, Steve Sjuggerud, and a team of Stansberry analysts to learn more about this major turning point for gold.\nIf gold continues its recent move higher \u2013 and it\u2019s already made one of its biggest three-month moves ever in the first quarter of 2016 \u2013 any gold investor will do well.\nBut Porter and his team have identified and put together an entire gold portfolio that they believe can hand investors gains that are much larger than average. Porter said it like this:\nI\u2019m confident that even a small allocation into gold and gold stocks of your portfolio (say, 15% to 20%) will be enough, with a few of our best ideas, to hedge your entire portfolio. This will allow you to continue to generate wealth even if the kind of bear market I expect develops.\nIf you already own a position in precious metals, bullion, or mining companies\u2026 or are considering it\u2026 I highly recommend tuning in tonight.\nClick here to register for this special presentation tonight at 8 p.m. Eastern time.\nI guarantee it will be worth your time.",

This has the potential to significantly reduce the number of miscarriages and birth defects around the world, and I do not use those words lightly,\" lead researcher Professor Sally Dunwoodie said on Thursday.\nEvery year 7.9 million babies are born with a birth defect worldwide, while one in four Australian pregnant women suffers a miscarriage.\nIn most cases the cause of these problems has remained a mystery.\nUsing whole exome sequencing technology, researchers looked for gene variants in families that had experienced multiple congenital malformations.\nProf Dunwoodie and her team found that a deficiency in a vital molecule, known as NAD, cripples the growth of an embryo in the womb.\nNicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) is one of the most important molecules in all living cells. It's synthesis is essential for energy production, DNA repair and cell communication.\nEnvironmental and genetic factors can disrupt its production.\nAfter 12 years of research, Prof Dunwoodie revealed that a NAD deficiency can be cured by taking dietary supplement vitamin B3, also known as niacin.\nVitamin B3 is required to make NAD and is typically found in meats and green vegetables as well as Vegemite.\nIn the laboratory, scientists investigated the effect of vitamin B3 on developing mice embryos with the same genetic mutations as the study participants.\nBefore the vitamin was introduced into the mother's diet, embryos were either lost through miscarriage or the offspring were born with a range of severe birth defects.\nAfter the dietary change, both the miscarriages and birth defects were completely prevented, with all the offspring born healthy.\nThe findings are published in the prestigious New England Journal of Medicine.\nVictor Chang Cardiac Research Institute executive director Prof Robert Graham said the \"profound\" discovery is akin to the breakthrough made last century that confirmed folic acid supplementation can prevent spina bifida and other neural tube defects in babies.\n\"This will change the way pregnant women are cared for around the world,\" he said.\nWith research suggesting at least a third of pregnant women have low levels of vitamin B3 in the first trimester, Prof Dunwoodie says many pregnant women may require more B3 than is currently available in most vitamin supplements.\nResearchers are now working on developing a diagnostic test to measure NAD levels to enable doctors to identify women at risk pregnant women.\nLonger wait needed before miscarry diagnosis\nHidden grief of miscarriage",

As a result, pediatricians have seen an increase in the number of children with positional plagiocephaly, or positional skull deformities (flat heads).\nIn the revised AAP clinical report, \u201cPrevention and Management of Positional Skull Deformities in Infants,\u201d in the December 2011 Pediatrics (published online Nov. 28), positional skull deformities are commonly diagnosed as benign, reversible head-shape irregularities that are caused in utero or may develop during the first few months of life, and do not require surgical correction.\nIt is important for pediatricians to be able to differentiate between infants with positional skull deformities and infants with craniosynostosis, a more serious condition that can lead to neurological damage or severe craniofacial deformity. The vast majority of positional plagiocephaly cases can be corrected with physical therapy and noninvasive measures. Helmet therapy is rarely necessary.\nIf the condition appears to be worsening by 6 months, referrals should be made to pediatric neurosurgeons with expertise in caring for this condition to help determine whether a skull-shaping helmet or other interventions are needed.",

This disease is caused by infection with single-celled protozoan parasites of the genus Plasmodium. Five Plasmodium spp. are known to infect humans: P. falciparum, P. vivax, P. ovale, P. malariae, and P. knowlesi. P. falciparum and P. vivax cause most of the malarial infections worldwide. P. falciparum accounts for the majority of the burden of malaria in sub-Saharan Africa and is associated with the most severe disease. P. vivax accounts for half of the malaria burden in South and East Asia and >80% of the malarial infections in the America.\nPlasmodium sporozoites, which initiate infection in humans, are inoculated into the dermis and enter the bloodstream following the bite of a Plasmodium-infected female anopheline mosquito. Within minutes, sporozoites travel to the liver, where they infect hepatocytes via cell surface receptor-mediated events. This process initiates the asymptomatic prepatent period, or exoerythrocytic stage of infection, which typically lasts ~1 week.\nDuring this period, the parasite undergoes asexual replication within hepatocytes, resulting in production of liver stage schizonts. When the infected hepatocytes rupture, tens of thousands of merozoites are released into the bloodstream and infect red blood cells. After the initial exoerythrocytic stage, P. falciparum and P. malariae are no longer found in the liver. P. vivax and P. ovale, however, can maintain a quiescent hepatocyte infection as a dormant form of the parasite known as the hypnozoite and can reinitiate symptomatic disease long after the initial symptoms of malaria are recognized and treated. Erythrocytic forms cannot reestablish infection of hepatocytes. Transmission of human-infecting malarial parasites is maintained in human populations by the persistence of hypnozoites (several months to few years for P. vivax and P. ovale), by antigenic variation in P. falciparum (probably months), and by the putative antigen variation in P. malariae (for as long as several decades).\nThe asexual erythrocytic stages of malarial parasites are responsible for the clinical manifestations of malaria. This part of the Plasmodium life cycle is initiated by merozoite recognition of red blood cells, mediated by cell surface receptors, followed by red blood cell invasion.\nOnce inside a red blood cell, the merozoite develops into a ring form, which becomes a trophozoite that matures into an asexually dividing blood stage schizont. Upon rupture of the infected erythrocyte, these schizonts release 8-32 merozoites that can establish new infections in nearby red blood cells. The erythrocytic replication cycle lasts for 24 h (for P. knowlesi), 48 h (for P. falciparum, P. vivax, and P. ovale), and 72 h (for P. malariae). Although most invading merozoites develop into schizonts, a small proportion become gametocytes, the form of the parasite that is infective to mosquitoes. Gametocytes are ingested into the mosquito midgut during an infectious blood meal and then transform ...",

        "raw_content": "From Asian Performing Arts to Support for Community College Students\nMENLO PARK, Calif. \u2013 From supporting contemporary Asian performing arts in San Jose to underwriting an innovative immersion program for new community college students, The William and Flora Hewlett Foundation made $13 million in grants this summer to 48 organizations serving diverse and disadvantaged communities in California.\nAcross the state, organizations received grants in the Foundation\u2019s five areas of California grantmaking: the environment, population, performing arts, education, and special projects.\n\u201cThe Hewlett Foundation\u2019s support of our state\u2019s rich cultural diversity and its help for those in need make California a better place,\u201d said Rep. Mike Honda (D-CA), whose Fifteenth Congressional District includes Dimension Performing Arts, a Hewlett grantee that presents contemporary Asian performing arts in the South Bay, as well as grant recipients that provide social services.\nAmong highlights of the grants awarded are:\nEnvironment \u2013 Supporting Parks and Cleaner Air in Disadvantaged Communities\nThe Environment Program made $1.07 million in grants to support 8 California organizations that address environmental issues in the state\u2019s most economically disadvantaged communities. Through these grants, the Program works to improve the quality of life for these communities with urban parks, recreation programs for youth, and a range of other programs.\nThe grants include $400,000 for The Trust for Public Land in San Francisco, one of the most successful conservation organizations in the United States. This grant will support the Trust\u2019s Parks for People program, which creates and renovates parks in disadvantaged neighborhoods in the Bay Area. In the next two years, the program plans to design and renovate the Hayes Valley Playground, Balboa Park, and Boeddeker Park in San Francisco.\nAnother grant, for $200,000, went to the Fresno Regional Foundation, which last year created the Air Quality Advisory Committee to distribute funds to Central Valley organizations that are working to reduce air pollution. The committee pays particular attention to low-income, disadvantaged communities and communities of color, which suffer disproportionately from air pollution.\nPopulation \u2013 Supporting Sound Educational Practices\nHewlett\u2019s Population Program \u2013 which makes grants to reduce teen and unplanned pregnancies and enhance reproductive rights, particularly in disadvantaged communities \u2013 made $1.8 million in grants to two organizations, including a grant for $400,000 to Education, Training and Research Associates of Scotts Valley, California. The grant is for ETR Associates to provide training to two Contra Costa school districts in the implementation of sex education curricula. Despite extensive scientific research on what constitutes effective sex education, many schools still use curricula that have not been rigorously tested.\nThe grant was made in conjunction with similar projects being considered by the Packard, Grove, and Ford foundations as part of a project to encourage the adoption of sex education that is based on science and effective pedagogy, so grant recipients can form a learning community to jointly evaluate the curricula.\nPerforming Arts \u2013 Promoting the Bay Area\u2019s Rich Cultural Mix\nThe Performing Arts Program made over $500,000 in grants to 10 organizations that give low-income and diverse Bay Area communities more opportunities to see and participate in the arts. The Program\u2019s grantmaking supports organizations that often work at the intersection of arts and youth development, civic engagement, and economic development.\nAmong award highlights is a $72,000 grant to Dimension Performing Arts of San Jose, which was created in 1995 to bring a variety of performing arts from the People\u2019s Republic of China and Taiwan to the Bay Area. Dimension also offers an education program that serves 5,000 K-12 students in fifteen schools.\nA grant for $100,000 went to the East Bay Center for the Performing Arts in Richmond for general operating support. The Center, founded in 1968, has more than fifty part-time faculty offering instruction in music, dance, theater, and new media to about 2,000 students at the Center and through public school-based programs throughout the city. Its broadly multicultural offerings, which reflect the community, reach another 20,000 youth and families through annual recitals and performances. This follows a $1.5 million grant the Foundation made to the Center in November 2008 for the renovation of their building.\nEducation \u2013 Working to Ensure Community College Students Succeed\nThe Education Program awarded over $7 million in grants to 18 California organizations mounting broad efforts to improve the state\u2019s public education from kindergarten to community college. Grants ranged from support for individual projects within a single school district to research into systemic issues.\nIn addition to backing efforts to prepare more high school students for college, the Foundation invests in improving instruction for the large majority of students who arrive at community college unprepared for college-level math and English. A $900,000 grant to the Cabrillo College Foundation in Aptos will enable it to further develop its Digital Bridge Academy, a one-semester immersion program to help underprepared students catch up and gain the study skills to succeed in college.\nThe Foundation also made a grant for $925,000 to the Campaign for College Opportunity in Los Angeles, a broad-based coalition dedicated to helping more students graduate from college in California. This grant will be used to support a community college pilot project that will provide greater financial flexibility for the schools in return for increased accountability for students\u2019 success. Funds also will be used for an assessment of the state\u2019s community colleges.\nSpecial Projects \u2013 Spreading Good Will\nIn addition to making grants through the programs listed above, the Hewlett Foundation also supports work it deems of merit through a special projects program. As part of this program, the Foundation awarded $25,000 to Goodwill Industries of San Francisco for general operating support.\nA full list of Hewlett Foundation grantees, along with links to their Web sites, is available online.\nThe William and Flora Hewlett Foundation has been making grants since 1967 to help solve social and environmental problems at home and around the world. The Foundation concentrates its resources on activities in education, the environment, global development, performing arts, philanthropy and population, and makes grants to support disadvantaged communities in the San Francisco Bay Area.\nHewlett Foundation Communications Officer\njfischer@hewlett.org",

With your kind encouragement I am putting all of these articles together (and adding some missing stuff) with the idea of making a personal history of life in the clothing business between 1970 and 2001, which was kind of like living through a war, or a plague. This is a big task; no way to write new stuff for this column. So I hope you'll be patient until I get the thing published; meanwhile I thought you might like to read (or re-read) some of the \"greatest hits\" - columns from the last few years.\n(From October, 2016)\nThe best I ever knew was Jimmy Hagan. He worked at Britches of Georgetown in the store on Connecticut Avenue. He was what made the specialty store special, knew everything about the products he sold, about the industry, trends, and about his clients. If you wanted something he didn't have he got it for you. He loved the business, and loved the customer. He was a natural. Anything he didn\u2019t know, Jimmy made it his business to find out. He would call me at home at night to ask stuff like what mill it was that made this or that fabric, something about the jacket he\u2019d sold to Al Gore or George Bush, Sr. But he\u2019d never brag on all the big-shot politicos and mucky-mucks he dressed. He just did what he did, and he elevated it from a job to a profession. I have a picture of him next to my desk and think about him just about every day. Jimmy Hagan was just a clothing salesman like Mohandas Gandhi was just a politician.\nI have met many others, men and women, from Beverly Hills to Boston, who are intelligent, thoughtful, well-trained professionals, educated and enthusiastic about clothing and, more important, about you. They are rare birds. Not one among them would ever try to impress you by saying something like \u201cEuropean cut\u201d or \"tropical worsted\" without knowing exactly what was meant by the term. None would use words they only sort-of knew the definition of, such as \u201cSuper 150s,\u201d but they would make it their business to know what it meant. Nor would they tell a customer a thing was \u201chand-sewn\u201d or \u201cbespoke\u201d if it weren\u2019t. They have no desire to impress or to baffle. They know too much and have too much respect for their customers to use these mindless catch-phrases. They sell with pride and authority because they are well-educated experts in the field. If you want to be confident in your appearance, I suggest you seek out a pro. Trouble is, this kind of expertise is on the professional endangered species list. It is. Here are a few reasons why.\nNobody gives a damn. I guess, anyway. Once I asked a guy on the main floor of Bergdorf\u2019s why the shirts on the wall behind him were over $300 each and he looked at me with a bored, dismissive expression and said, \u201cThey\u2019re Borelli.\u201d Like that explained something. He might have said \"Because that's how much we charge.\" Couldn't he have found something to say about the cotton, or the workmanship, or anything besides just the brand name? I guess he thought the customer so brand-enslaved or status conscious or brain dead that the name of a $350 shirt is supposed to say it all. Does brand recognition mean it fits? Or is comfortable? This is the Kardashian School of Retailing. The old standard USP (Unique Selling Proposition) has been replaced by HIHOT: \u201cHey I\u2019ve Heard of That.\u201d\nThe Land of Plenty has become The Kingdom of Too Much. Not only are there seven thousand brands to choose, and seventy thousand places to buy them (Online! Mobile App! Free Shipping and Free Returns! 30% off! Today only!) but there are seven hundred thousand articles, blogs and reviews about everything you might be looking for. Pick an item, and a brand, and I bet you can find overwhelming amounts of opinions about it, and for every paragraph you find saying Robert Graham shirts are wonderful you will find one saying they suck. And for every blog article extolling the virtues of Oxxford Clothes, you\u2019ll find another that says they\u2019re stupid. Nowhere, by the way, will you find what these reviewers' credentials are; just opinions looking for a place to land. Are there no objective criteria anymore? With so much information so readily available, you\u2019d think we\u2019d be informed.\nBut you want to get clothes that fit, that are up-to-date but not ultra-fashion. You want to spend your money on things that are worth the price, no matter what your budget. You don\u2019t mind paying for something as long as you\u2019re going to get your money\u2019s worth. Ain\u2019t that right?\nStep One: Find a good store and go to it. I know, it\u2019s hard. Especially when, sitting right there, right now, in your funky gym clothes at your computer at 10:30PM, in the privacy of your own home, you could go to over two million websites (or just to Amazon.com) and outfit yourself for a visit to the Queen\u2019s Enclosure at Ascot while catching the last inning of the Mets or whatever. Or so you think. I know folks who\u2019ve tried, with costly, disastrous, and humiliating results. Then there\u2019s always the \u201cwardrobe adviser\u201d at Trunk Club or some other self-appointed expert. Besides their names and what you know about yourself, what can you say about them? Where even are they? Minnesota? San Diego? Do they know about your town, your neighbors, your climate? You think they have a good reputation. A good brand. Or don\u2019t they? This blogger over here says not! Jeez. And even that\u2019s a hassle because when it arrives you won\u2019t know whether it even fits right or looks good, let alone how and where to get it altered. Never mind, if you don't like it you can just cram it back into the box and send it back. Nice.\nStep Two: Look around. If the kids in the store are wearing magenta tuxedo jackets with torn jeans, button-down shirts and a bowtie\u2026 (Wait, is that Billy? You may be in my store!) But if the clothes on display look like the kind of stuff you want to wear, or can see yourself in, maybe.\nStep Three: Talk to me. Or someone like me. Dean, or someone like Dean. Oh. Right. I almost forgot. People like us are hard to find. People who\u2019ll tell you why the shirt costs that much; why the trousers you used to like in the size you used to be don\u2019t exactly work on you today; how to take care of that polo shirt with the incomprehensible care instructions; what \u201c2-ply 120s\u201d means on a shirt fabric, why it\u2019s not the same as 120s suiting fabric, and why you should care in the first place. But even more important, in a retail store that\u2019s worth its salt you\u2019ll find people who are not sales-people. You\u2019ll find consultants, in reality. Investment advisers. You\u2019re coming to make an investment in you \u2013 in the you that the world sees, to all outward appearances the real you \u2013 and you want some advice. You\u2019re moving some capital, from your treasury department to the department of the exterior, and by golly you don\u2019t want to make a mistake.\nDedicated to the Memory of James Reed Hagan (1949 - 2000)\nnick@nickhilton.com March 20, 2018 9 Comments\nnick@nickhilton.com November 15, 2017",

This castle was build in 1590 and is considered second only to Himeji Castle.\nFirst I walked around the castle grounds. It is just amazing to see this incredible castle in person!\nThe entry fee is 610 yen and totally worth it! There are six levels. Some photos were taken on the way up and some on the way down. The stairs are very very steep and photos are not allowed while going up and down the stairs because it is too dangerous. Most of the signage is in English as well as Japanese.\nNow, going back down\nWow Pamela this castle is amazing ,you got lots of wonderful pics,thankyou for sharing xx\nInteresting - thank you!\nWhat an amazing-looking place! Fantastic views from the top, too.\nIt is such a beautiful castle, and you can feel the authenticity. I especially like the fact that it is not on top of a mountain, but very much part of the town around it.\nJapanese architecture is a work of art. The castle building is amazing and so wonderfully houses artifacts.\nGosh, that is a pretty castle. It's an impressive defensive structure, but yet it looks amazing!",

        "title": "\ufeff Renewable energy investment driven by consumer pull The Megawatt Hour- Energy Management \u2013 Energy Information",
        "raw_content": "Renewable energy driven by consumer pull\nConsumer preferences are driving utility and business investment in renewable energy. Regulatory decree is not the principal motivation for green power investments anymore. Back in 2006 a group of us started Juice Energy. One of our founding hypotheses was that consumers would insist on clean-powered products. Our premise was that customers were going to insist on purchasing products and services from businesses that invested in renewable energy. It was true then. The vast majority of our commercial and industrial clients purchased renewable energy credits back then. In fact, it is even more true today.\nConsumers are insisting on clean energy investment by utilities and businesses\nWhat do we know about renewable energy consumer pull?\nHistorically, regulators have attempted to prime the market for renewable energy investment by requiring suppliers to purchase green power credits to satisfy a percentage of their load. New York State\u2019s Clean Energy Standard had multiple goals, one of which was to drive investment in clean power.\nIn the past several years, more and more corporations and utilities have taken the initiative to implement clean energy programs. These decisions, they say, are simply good business. This Spring, GreenBiz reported that a Berkshire Hathaway-owned utility, MidAmerican Energy, is aiming for 100 percent renewable energy. Why would a utility make such a bold commitment?\nAccording to utility executive Jonathan Weisgall, because customers are demanding it.\n\u201cWe don\u2019t have a single customer saying, \u2018Will you build us a 100 percent coal plant?'\u201d Weisgall said, speaking Thursday at the Pathways to 100% Renewable Energy conference in Berkeley, California. \u201cGoogle, Microsoft, Kaiser Permanente \u2014 all want 100 percent renewable energy. We\u2019re really transitioning from a push mandate on renewable energy, to more of a customer pull.\u201d\nThe utility, located in Iowa, is not considered a hotbed for environmental activism. Nevertheless, landowners, utility customers and of course the utility itself are in favor of the move to renewables.\nThe push for renewables in Iowa makes a difference, as the state continues to rely on coal as the primary fuel for generating electricity, at more than 45 percent, while wind supplies 37 percent, and solar panels produce less than 1 percent, according to the U.S. Energy Department.\nThe increase in renewables won\u2019t result in rate increases for utility customers, Weisgall said, even though the utility will be paying almost $2 billion over the next 30 years in landowner payments and taxes.\n\u201cThat\u2019s why farmers love renewable energy,\u201d he said. \u201cIt\u2019s a reliable secondary source of income against the fluctuating costs of soybeans and corn.\u201d\nWhat are corporations doing to support renewable energy investment?\nAccording to Heather Clancy and GreenBiz, the second quarter of 2018 proved promising for corporate renewable energy investment in the United States. GreenBiz tracks clean energy investments each quarter. The second quarter of 2018 lagged the first slightly, but there were promising signals during the 2nd quarter:\nSo far, big businesses have been involved in 31 transactions for clean power this year (not including onsite generation), the same as for all of 2017, according to data gathered by GreenBiz and the Rocky Mountain Institute\u2019s Business Renewables Center (BRC).\nIndeed, the aggregate amount of electricity represented by those purchase agreements was only slightly less than last year\u2019s total.\nThe biggest single U.S. deal of the quarter was announced by AT&T \u2014 its 300-MW virtual power purchase agreement (VPPA) covering two wind farms in Texas brings the total capacity of contracts announced this year by the telecommunications giant to a whopping 820 MW.\nBottom line for energy and finance experts: Renewable energy is playing a meaningful role in the fuel mix. Consumers, students, customers are driving the changes at the corporate/utility level. Are you doing enough to satisfy your customer\u2019s desire for green-powered products?\nContact us if you want to learn more about renewable energy",

        "title": "How To Learn a Language Fast: Spanish in 3 Weeks Using Babbel",
        "raw_content": "The idea of learning a new language can seem overwhelming for many. It's impressive how often the keywords \"How to Learn a Language Fast\" has been Googled.\nMany want to learn a new language and learn fast!\nFor some people, learning a new language comes easy and for others, not so much. For me, I've found that I really need study hard to learn a new language. It doesn't necessarily come easy to me, but I'm very eager to learn. So, at the beginning of the year, I made the goal to study Spanish at least a couple of times per week throughout all of 2018. I already have a higher than basic understanding of the language, but have become really rusty over the years since I don't speak Spanish very often. So, my goals is to be fluent within the next couple of years. With this mission in mind, I signed up for Babbel, the language learning app developed by a team of language experts, and spent the last 3 weeks learning Spanish for 30 minutes each day. My first goal following the 3 weeks of intense studying was to be able to film a YouTube video in Spanish. This was a somewhat scary idea, but I was determined to make it happen.\nStudying Spanish with Babbel\nEvery morning, I'd complete one or two of the Babbel lessons. Throughout the day, I would recite the new words I learned so that I could ingrain them in my brain. The lessons are set up in a way to really help you succeed. It's a simple and fun format, using repetition, images, sound and written content. In order to move on to the next lesson, you need to understand and complete the previous lesson. You also have the option of using your microphone to answer some of the questions. I would recommend choosing this option if you can, as it really helps you become more comfortable speaking the language when you're saying words and phrases out loud.\nFor 2 out of the 3 weeks, I was travelling, but one of the great things about Babbel (TRAVEL HACK ALERT) is you can download lessons offline. This way I was able to study while on planes or other times when I didn't have access to WiFi or data. Another great thing I love about Babbel is it teaches you real-life vocabulary! I'm not talking about the text book high school Spanish (which did absolutely nothing for me). I'm talking about the kind of Spanish that will actually be extremely beneficial during your travels.\nAfter studying for the past 3 weeks, I filmed my \"Morning Airstream Routine\" IN SPANISH!

        "raw_content": "E. O. Scott June 12, 2018 at 2:59 pm\nPelgaius: \u201cRecognizing compassion a fifth virtue\u2026 seems to be something well worth considering\u201d\nPart of the problem is that the 4 virtues are broad classes of virtue that seem to have been chosen to form a sort of exhaustive categorization of the domains of human life: the management of desires (Temperance), the management of aversions (Courage), intelligent judgement (Prudence), and our interactions with others (Justice).\nThe idea is that any ethical question fits into one of these categories. The scheme is useful in part because it is so simple and exhaustive.\n\u201cThe Confucian emphasis on benevolence could also congruent with Stoicism\u201d\nIndeed! And \u201cBenevolence\u201d is a common alternate translation the Greek \u03b4\u03b9\u03ba\u03b1\u03b9\u03bf\u03c3\u03cd\u03bd\u03b7 (usually, \u201cJustice\u201d). You cannot be Just (in the Stoic sense) without being Benevolent.\n\u201cBut it may need more prominence.\u201d\nThat I\u2019d agree with (both for \u201clove\u201d and \u201ccompassion\u201d). IMO a good way to alter Stoicism to emphasize these traits, though, is to add love and compassion as \u201csub-virtues\u201d that fall under the heading of \u201cJustice\u201d (since Justice involves all of our dealings with others).\nThen we should talk a lot about them, practice them, and emphasize them in our modern Stoic conversations and literature.\nSocraticGadfly June 12, 2018 at 5:10 pm\n\u03b4\u03b9\u03ba\u03b1\u03b9\u03bf\u03c3\u03cd\u03bd\u03b7 is also, of course, translated as \u201crighteousness\u201d \u2026. as used in the Septuagint and from there, by Paul in the New Testament.\nPlutarch \u2026 I\u2019m the author. \ud83d\ude42\nThe disjunct I explain in part by noting that No. 2 was offered as an option, while also noting that it comes in part as running traditional Cynicism through an existentialist-absurdist filter. (There\u2019s a little bit of anarchy in that tradition.) The first part is I charge a modern updating of the Cynic way of obtaining eudaimonia.\nAlso, the disjunct arguably starts in Cynicism itself. How much, at times, was Diogenes challenging convention to pursue eudaimonia, and how often just to be a deliberate contrarian? On the third hand, for himself at least, being a deliberate contrarian may have been part of his path to eudaimonia.\nThanks, E.O. We don\u2019t seem all that far apart. I\u2019d welcome a thorough discussion about Stoic virtues (and how best to cultivate them). The \u2018taxonomy\u2019 is fascinating.\nTo both E.O. Scott and Massimo:\nYour responses to my endorsement of Ussher\u2019s proposal to add compassion as a 5th virtue seem very LOGICAL \u2014 but also narrow and legalistic.\nIt may be true that if you spend a great deal of time interpreting the Stoic virtue of justice \u2014 after reading various passages in the Stoic scriptures \u2014 that one might decide that the Stoic virtue of justice includes compassion.\nMaybe it is even LOGICAL that there should be one virtue that incorporates relations with others, although I don\u2019t see why that important topic should be restricted to one out of four virtues.\nBut when you list the four key virtues as being justice, practical wisdom, courage, and moderation, does the average person readily understand that compassion is part of that mix? I doubt it. That\u2019s a problem.\nThe Stoics recognized the need for formulas and slogans that emphasized the key things that someone needed to understand to improve one\u2019s excellence. They talked about having various formulas at the ready to remind oneself of what one needed to do to be virtuous.\nHere\u2019s my perspective: the notion that you can LOGIC your way to virtue without COMPASSION seems to me to be delusional. People act justly because it is solely in their enlightened self-interest? Give me a break!\nTherefore, not to emphasize compassion as a key component of the virtues\u2013 which after all are supposed to be unified, you can\u2019t have one without having all of them \u2014 seems to me to be a quite serious mistake.\nIt\u2019s a matter of emphasis. You can spend a lot of time finding passages from Marcus Aurelius, Seneca, or Epictetus that might be interpreted to imply compassion as being important. But if your cardinal virtues are fourfold, and don\u2019t EXPLICITLY include compassion, then there is a failure of EMPHASIS.\nThis is not an intellectual debate about what might be implied by the Stoic scriptures. It is a practical debate about how best to get to virtue. In my view, naming the key virtues as only being justice, practical wisdom, courage, and moderation seems to be woefully insufficient. It is less helpful than it could be as a practical guide. It is incomplete. It lacks adequate feeling and appeal.\nNow, why the ancient Stoics didn\u2019t emphasize compassion more \u2014 that is quite curious. Maybe because ancient Rome was a male-dominated militaristic culture, and they were trying to fit into that culture at least to some extent? But I don\u2019t think we should be limited by what may have been dictated by their cultural context.\nE. O. Scott June 12, 2018 at 11:01 pm\nYou make a fair point about slogans. That\u2019s why I\u2019m a big fan, personally, of using the phrase \u201cJustice and Benevolence\u201d to translate \u03b4\u03b9\u03ba\u03b1\u03b9\u03bf\u03c3\u03cd\u03bd\u03b7, as Donald Robertson does in his modern Stoic book. In this scheme, the four virtues become \u201cTemperance, Courage, Prudence, and Justice/Benevolence\u201d\u2014and a big part of our motivation for cultivating the first three is to enhance our ability to behave with Benevolence.\n\u201cwhy the ancient Stoics didn\u2019t emphasize compassion more \u2014 that is quite curious. \u201d\nI think they did emphasize compassion a great deal (depending on how narrowly you define it).\nThey talk on and on about the importance of benefiting others, of comforting others, of \u201cgroaning with others,\u201d of providing a \u201chealing balm\u201d for people\u2019s emotional and material misfortunes, treating others\u2019 needs as your own, of being so attentive to others\u2019 needs that you are ready to benefit them before they even ask for you help, etc.\n\u201cNo philosophical school is kindlier and gentler,\u201d says Seneca emphatically, \u201cnor more loving of humankind and more attentive to our common good, to the degree that its very purpose is to bring assistance.\u201d\nBut as you say, it\u2019s a matter of emphasis. For some reason, Stoic teachings on pro-social action and our duty to tirelessly work for the benefit of those around us often go ignored. And if part of that is the fault of the ancient texts, of course we are more than free to correct for it. It\u2019s a living and self-critical tradition, after all!\n\u201cthe notion that you can LOGIC your way to virtue without COMPASSION seems to me to be delusional.\u201d\nI would agree. IMO, that\u2019s part of why the Stoics rejected Plato\u2019s strict division between reason and emotions. In Stoicism, the pursuit of virtue is inseparable from the cultivation of \u201chealthy passions,\u201d which include (among other things) several species of \u201caffection\u201d for our fellow human beings.\n\u201cPeople act justly because it is solely in their enlightened self-interest? Give me a break!\u201d\nI\u2019m not sure where you\u2019re going here. Stoic ethics has very little to do with \u201cenlightened self-interest.\u201d It has more in common with a sort of pure altruism, in which our benefit is equated with the benefit of others, and loving others is seen as its own reward.\nPS to Tim: Anyway, it seems that all parties in this conversation would like to see compassion (or something closely related to it\u2014like generosity, affection, kindness, love, etc) emphasized more in how Stoicism is presented to the world.\nBuddhism and Christianity have a leg up in the PR department on this one (with metta and \u1f00\u03b3\u03ac\u03c0\u03b7, respectively).\nCosmopolitanism is probably the closest things Stoics have to a similar one-word slogan that has always been front-and-center in our system.\nThose of us who have spent a lot of time with the texts know that there is much more there\u2014with kindness, affection, benevolence, etc, playing as central a role in Stoic ethics as metta does for Buddhists\u2014but it\u2019s admittedly a little difficult to explain this to newcomers. Perhaps the abstractness of \u201cJustice\u201d is indeed part of the problem.\nChuchu June 13, 2018 at 5:25 am\nHi Tim and Pelagius (sorry I autocorrected your name wrong previously),\nIn just trying to understand you better here \ud83d\ude0a: Do you suggest that by adding the virtue \u201ccompassion\u201d to the existing Stoic virtues, people are more likely to accept Stoicism as a philosophy to live their lives by?\nWell said, Tim. My understanding of Justice, as conceived by the Stoics (and described by Donald Robertson), is that it involves kindness and fairness. That\u2019s a fine way to relate to others. But if true, then Stoic Justice is akin to compassion but has nothing like its intensity and requires nothing like the degree of commitment needed to cultivate a truly compassionate disposition. So I\u2019m all for adding it as a fifth cardinal virtue. But thankfully, in recognizing the need to give justice and compassion greater prominence, we all seem to be moving in the right direction.\nTrue, but they also have a leg down on integrating logic and \u201cphysics\u201d into their philosophy, i.e., actively improving our ability to reason, and taking seriously the world as it is, respectively. That\u2019s one of the major things that attracted me to Stoicism after I left Christianity. Also one of the reasons Buddhism never spoke to me.\nAs I say in the OP, different philosophies speak to different folks, and I wouldn\u2019t want to turn Stoicism into something that no longer speaks to me.\nA couple more things on four vs five (or more?) virtues:\nThere is a nice article on Stoic virtue ethics by Matthew Sharpe (downloadable here: https://www.academia.edu/5610675/Stoic_Virtue_Ethics, I have commented on it here: https://howtobeastoic.wordpress.com/2015/07/21/stoic-virtue-ethics-part-i/ and here: https://howtobeastoic.wordpress.com/2015/07/23/stoic-virtue-ethics-part-ii/) where he has a table (p.38) that lists the known sub-virtues within each of the big four. This makes it clear that the cardinal four are just an easy to orient oneself, the Stoics had a much more sophisticated understanding of virtue. Sure enough, under\u201djustice\u201d we find: kindness, sociability, and good companionship.\nThe four cardinal virtues, plus the Stoic concepts of cosmopolitanism and the sense of transcendence associated with the Logos, are among a sub-set of near-universally cross-culturally recognized virtues, as discussed in this paper: http://www.precisionmi.com/Materials/UniveralVirtuesMat/Shared%20Virtue%20The%20Convergence%20of%20Valued%20Human%20Strengths.pdf; you can read my commentary here: https://howtobeastoic.wordpress.com/2016/04/14/the-universality-of-virtue/\nTim Bartik June 13, 2018 at 9:30 am\nSpecific Comment to ChuChu: \u201cDo you suggest that by adding the virtue \u201ccompassion\u201d to the existing Stoic virtues, people are more likely to accept Stoicism as a philosophy to live their lives by?\u201d\nYes. I think more people would be more attracted by a Stoicism that was more explicitly and prominently \u201ckinder and gentler\u201d. And they would be more likely to be attracted to Stoicism for the right reasons, that is be attracted for what it really promises for becoming a better person.\nIn other words, I think one of Stoicism\u2019s \u201cgrowing pains\u201d right now is that some people attracted to it seem to be attracted by what they perceive as its promise to build an invulnerable character that can prevail in competition. But I don\u2019t think that is what Stoicism is about at all!\nObviously any philosophy can be misunderstood. But one can try to design its central tenets to reduce such misunderstanding.\nMore general comments:\nI think we are agreed that Stoicism properly understood includes compassion. There even seems to be agreement about giving compassion more prominence. The difference seems to be over whether giving compassion more prominence in Stoicism may require some important changes in Modern Stoicism that deviate somewhat from how Stoicism was presented in the ancient Roman world.\nI agree with Massimo that the cardinal four virtues are just a way to orient oneself, and that there are lots of sub-classes of virtues within those four. The relevant issue is: if one was to choose some relatively small number of 4 or 5 main virtue categories to orient oneself, is there some merit in including at least one virtue that explicitly refers to something equivalent to the Buddhist \u201cloving-kindness\u201d? Would that be a better \u201corientation\u201d for newcomers to Stoicism, and a better reminder for daily Stoic practice?\nFrankly, I wonder whether the Stoic embrace of these particular 4 cardinal virtues really wasn\u2019t just a form of allegiance to the broad Platonic tradition. If so, there is no necessity to stick to exactly those 4 virtues, or to frame them exactly in the same way. There are a lot of ways of classifying and labelling all the various virtues that might be considered to be part of human excellence.\nThere is perhaps some analogy to modern Buddhism\u2019s deviations from Buddhist tradition. The well-known Budshist scholar/practitioner Stephen Batchelor has argued, controversially among some Buddhists, that the traditional Buddhist embrace of reincarnation was simply because this was the general belief prevailing during the Buddha\u2019s lifetime. Therefore, he has argued for dropping the doctrine of reincarnation as essential to Buddhism. And he has tried to back this up with quotes from various Buddhist texts, and extended argument about this issue.\ninteresting observations, but:\nthe addition of a fifth virtue would have to be justified theoretically (Stoicism is a philosophical system, after all), not just from the point of view of convincing more people to become Stoic (which is, of course, a preferred indifferent).\nAnd as E.O. has pointed out, there are reasons why we have the four virtues. Yes, they do go back to Socrates, but they are justified theoretically within the Stoic system. Adding a fifth one would be arbitrary, especially considering that it is already, explicitly, mentioned under one of the original four.\nMoreover, if we start making arbitrary moves like this one, for convenience, than why not six virtues? Or sevem, like the Christian ones?\nAs for your analogy with Buddhism, I think it\u2019s a different case. Reincarnation is a metaphysical belief, not a crucial component of the ethical structure. There are analogies in Stoicism: most modern Stoics reject the idea of a providential Logos, re-interpreting the concept as simply the idea that the cosmos are organized in a rational, intelligible manner.\nTim Bartik June 13, 2018 at 10:41 am\nMassimo: I don\u2019t think adding compassion is an \u201carbitrary move\u201d for convenience. Rather, I think it is a necessary one, as love is essential for justice.\nIf you don\u2019t want to abandon the four virtues, why not relabel justice with a label that encompasses its positive emotional component that is probably essential to its operation? For example, why not relabel justice using Martin Luther King, Jr.\u2019s phrase, \u201cThe Beloved Community\u201d? Personally, I don\u2019t think of this as a PR move. I think this is a better way of describing what we are aiming for than \u201cjustice\u201d, which is a rather sparse and uninspiring noun.\nAnd I think we could find grounds for such relabeling in the classics. In the Gorgias, which I believe was Epictetus\u2019s favorite Platonic dialogue, Socrates says the following, at least in Robin Waterfield\u2019s translation:\n\u201cThe experts\u2019 opinion is that cooperation, love, order, discipline, and justice bind heaven and earth, gods and men. That\u2019s why they call the universe an ordered whole\u2026rather than a disorderly mess or an unruly shambles.\u201d (Gorgias, 508a).\nwe are going to have to agree to disagree on this one. I see the proposed addition as arbitrary, for reasons explained by E.O. in one of his comments, and because of the detailed treatment of Stoic virtue ethics by Sharpe.\n\u201cI think more people would be more attracted by a Stoicism that was more explicitly and prominently \u2018kinder and gentler\u2019. And they would be more likely to be attracted to Stoicism for the right reasons, that is be attracted for what it really promises for becoming a better person.\u201d\nI couldn\u2019t agree more. This is one big part of why some of us created the Stoics for Justice group on Facebook. We have a section on Stoic compassion in our reading list\u2014perhaps you could help us expand it!: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1853809494834681/\nChris J. Porzenheim June 13, 2018 at 3:56 pm\nPelagius,\nI think the role of desire and love could definitely use more prominence whenever we try to explain Stoicsm to newcomers. We do have, though it may be a preferred indifferent to oppose it, a bit of a pr problem eg \u201cunfeeling stereotype.\u201d At the same time, I\u2019m with Massimo in that I feel adding a 5th virtue seems like an arbitrary concession.\nMy two cents would be that going forwards is that while it would be a break with the conventional traditions of translation within scholarship, that if you render the original term in Greek which we translate into \u201cjustice\u201d as \u201cbenevolence\u201d that this might do the trick. (Of course, only if this still remains faithful to the Greek.)\nCurrently, common English has a very narrow semantic range for the word \u201cJustice.\u201d So trying to get people to understand \u201ccompassion\u201d and \u201cbenevolence\u201d as subset of \u201cJustice\u201d will be a head-scratcher. Furthemore, at least for Americans, \u201cJustice\u201d carries a very individualistic series of assumptions within it that, in so far as I understand Stoicism, are not what they mean\u2019t by \u201cJustice.\u201d\nBy contrast, \u201cBenevolence\u201d has a much wider semantic range in common English. It would be easy to show a newcomer how \u201cJustice\u201d and \u201cCompassion\u201d slot into \u201cBenevolence.\u201d And the connection between \u201cBenevolence\u201d and \u201cCosmopolitanism\u201d is immediately more obvious than \u201cJustice\u201d and \u201cCosmopolitanism.\u201d\nMy urge is that a move like this, rather than adding a 5th virtue, would be a helpful way to make Stoicism relevant to a modern audience without sacrificing it\u2019s traditional structure of 4 virtues. A small change like this might make a very big difference in people\u2019s ability to understand, and therefore practice, Stoicism. \u201cJustice\u201d is, at least in its present usage, simply too anemic a term imo.\nP.S. I feel similarly about receiving messages from people named \u201cPelagius,\u201d though I regret to inform you I\u2019ll be going by my actual name from here on out. I do really like Plutarch though.\nSocratic Gadfly,\nI hope I didn\u2019t sound dismissive of your article.\nI thought it was a rigorous engagement with Cynicism and the comparisons you made between the Cynics and the wandering fools of other philosophical and religious traditions (eg Sufis) was astute.\nI\u2019m with you in suspecting the dis-junction between (1) and (2) starts as far back as Diogenes himself. I like your \u201cthird hand\u201d option. This would suggest the only way to be a good Cynic is if you are temperamentally suited to the calling of being a homeless, minimalist, street preacher of virtue. Eg, you don\u2019t choose the lifestyle of Cynicism, the lifestyle of Cynicism chooses you.\nChris, no, you just sounded questioning, not dismissive. And, to at least a degree, yes, I think Cynicism both ancient and modern is a matter of temperament more than many other philosophies.\nAnd, per Chris\u2019s home page, a bird for you (and anybody else) https://www.flickr.com/photos/43577246@N02/41201153554/in/dateposted-public/\nHi, Chuchu. I think that if we added compassion as a virtue, the philosophy would no longer be Stoicism, per se, because then other people could no longer be considered as indifferents. As a result, it might become something even better. A problem with Stoicism is that is conceives of the human cosmopolis as a community of rational beings, or at least a community of beings who are capable of being rational. Unfortunately, birth defects, brain damage, autism and other factors place rationality out of reach for many. Yet they still deserve to be valued members of the human community. So in view of that, and in view of certain other developments that have occurred over the past couple of centuries, I think we can safely alter the cosmopolitan membership requirements to include anyone capable of suffering. That would be everybody, no matter their mental capacity. Plus, it might make for a more user-friendly virtue philosophy, with those powerful virtues still firmly in place. In fact, a strong sense of compassion might make it easier to cultivate the Fab Four.\nPS. No worries about misspelling my name. After all, it\u2019s not my real name anyway! \ud83d\ude42\nEric, nice to make your acquaintance! I\u2019ll let my own mask slip a little by noting that \u2018Pelagius\u2019 is Greek for my real name, according to Bertrand Russell.\nI agree that cosmopolitanism can easily be expanded to include compassion or concern for everyone who is suffering. I disagree about your comment about the rational community. Only the ideal Stoic Republic is made up of sages, not the world we live in. So the Stoics were perfectly aware of the fact that we aren\u2019t all rational, or all of the time. And remember that \u201crationality\u201d for the Stoics includes the cultivation of positive emotions, which means that even to describe Stoic philosophy as rationalistic is incorrect.\nSocraticGadfly June 13, 2018 at 11:45 pm\nSpeaking of ideal republics, didn\u2019t Shakespeare say \u201cFirst, we kill all the philosopher kings\u201d? \ud83d\ude42\nThanks, Massimo. But I\u2019m not aware of any evidence that the ancient Stoics, or anyone else in the ancient world, were ready to defend the rights of the mentally disabled. If there is evidence to that effect, please let me know. Epictetus was physically disabled, or course, and his method of coping with this disability consisted of \u2014 who knew! \u2014 rationality.\nAs an aside, if anyone\u2019s interested in a good read about Stoic cosmopolitanism, this essay by Martha Nussbaum is a dandy: https://iow.eui.eu/wp-content/uploads/sites/28/2013/03/13-De-Frouville-Background-Kant-and-Stoic-Cosmopolitanism.pdf\nthe fact that the ancient Stoics were not concerned with the mentally disabled, a modern category, seems to me irrelevant. Stoic philosophy, without change, has the tools that are required for such defense. Indeed, I think it has the tools for a type of modern environmentalism and animal rights movement as well, even though the ancients didn\u2019t talk about either. As Seneca says, our ancestors are our teachers, not our masters.\nTalonguard June 14, 2018 at 7:59 am\n\u201cHere\u2019s my perspective: the notion that you can LOGIC your way to virtue without COMPASSION seems to me to be delusional.\u201d \u2013 I disagree.\nWhat exactly would adding compassion to the 4 cardinal virtues add to stoicism? The 4 virtues form an inclusive idea, direction or concept, but stoic virtue is manifested trough action (or at least attempt to action) and the intention behind it, not by feelings or rhetoric or semantics. You either cheat or don\u2019t, lie or say the truth, you stand up to defend the oppressed or not.\nAlso, how would you define compassion? I find compassion to originate in empathy (a rather unpleasant, distressing feeling for me personally). I do not think a stoic would or should give assent to negative feelings. A stoic should look at any given situation objectively, and yes as you put it, logic their way to virtue by reasonable action in the interest of society.\nMaking stoicism more appealing to others? Adding some steak to vegan diet would make it more appealing to me. Jokes aside there is no need to fix things that are not broken.\nHi Pelagius,\nYou certainly highlighted some points I hadn\u2019t thought of, and I can now see clearly where you were coming from, thank you!\nI won\u2019t be debating with you on the specifics of Stoic virtues; because, frankly I don\u2019t know enough to add my 2 cents in.\ud83d\ude0a\nHowever, I do think the idea of starting a new school of philosophy is great, even if it\u2019s largely based on Stoic philosophies. Heck, Stoicism itself came from Cynicism. I can see many Stoics are quite happy with the four virtues the way they are, changing them would require many years of rigorous validation \u2013 is that the right word to use in philosophy?! It\u2019s probably better to spend that energy starting something new, and potentially better for many others!\nThe only observation I\u2019d like to state here is that having \u201ccompassion\u201d as a virtue does not necessarily mean people who practice the philosophy would be more compassionate than not having it. I can only speak for Confucianism here because I spent my early childhood years sitting in classrooms reciting \u201cConfucius says\u2026\u201d with 50+ other kids. The people that grew up in that environment are on average no more compassionate than people who never heard of Confucianism. The point is when people practice a philosophy that doesn\u2019t put a particular strong emphasis on reason often end up not bothering with understanding why they need to be good to begin with. This is just based on some observations I made when I was young. \ud83d\ude0a\nYou made some great comments there. \ud83d\ude0a there\u2019s definitely a trend for people to use Stoicism as a way to be more successful! Just look at how many \u201chow to be a successful Stoic business man\u201d sort of writings floating around!\nHowever, many very compassionate Stoic thinkers in our modern societies are quite happy with Stoicism as the way it is. So why not start a new school of philosophy? I feel there\u2019s nothing wrong with basing one\u2019s own philosophy on an existing school. After all, this has been done many times in history. \ud83d\ude0a\nE. O. Scott June 14, 2018 at 10:20 am\nTalongaurd,\n\u201cI find compassion to originate in empathy (a rather unpleasant, distressing feeling for me personally). I do not think a stoic would or should give assent to negative feelings.\u201d\nPersonally, I disagree. Stoicism is not about avoiding negative feelings per se, but, as you suggest, about engaging in moral actions that benefit others (even if they hurt).\nFrom there, I would give two arguments for why empathy must be part of that process.\nFirst, as the Stoics recognized, and as modern science emphasizes, there is no clean separation between emotion and reason. We cannot process information about others effectively without our emotional and subconscious systems. So I\u2019m skeptical that even cognitive empathy (in which we understand others\u2019 feelings without feeling them ourselves) is possible without recruiting some emotional empathy too (in which our feelings mirror others\u2019).\nThe ancient Stoics sometimes spoke of a sort of emotive \u201ctension\u201d or arousal that the wise person maintains in order to be ready to act. And then of course there are healthy passions like \u201ccaution\u201d and \u201caffection,\u201d which the Stoics clearly recommend as aids to action. All this suggests that they agreed with Tim that raw \u201clogic\u201d (in the modern sense) is not feasible for human beings. Human \u201creason\u201d involves more than that.\nSecond, as for empathy itself, you\u2019re right that a Stoic avoids value judgements and emotions that might threaten their belief that virtue is the only good (passions). So we stop short of one kind of irrational, morally problematic empathy.\nBut since Stoicism accepts all other emotions as natural and healthy, personally I think there is still ample space for a kind of empathy within Stoicism.\nIn particular, I view healthy empathy as a proto-passion that automatically arises when we pay attention to others and imaginatively focus on their story. This causes us to feel some of the proto-passions we might feel if we were in their shoes, and it puts us in a better position to perform theory of mind, to act as a comforting shoulder to lean upon, and yes, to analyze their situation and help solve it.\nSuch feelings may still be unpleasant (proto-passions can hurt!), but Stoics were all about choosing the unpleasant path in order to benefit others (like Hercules).\nIn this view, if a someone fails to feel empathy, it is often because they have failed to pay attention in an affectionate way\u2014which is not a judgement, but rather an action that is demanded by the virtue of Justice.\nGranted, the ancients were sparse in their treatment of empathy, and the proto-passions in general, so this is view is my own invention. But it is clear that they did not want us to be \u201cunfeeling like a statue.\u201d And I think treating empathy as the automatic result of pro-social attentiveness is a consistent way of using the tools the tradition left for us to help create a moral, kind, and socially engaged Stoicism.",

        "raw_content": "Whether the setting is sun-and-sand, snow-and-ski, or an indoor water park, today\u2019s destination resorts commonly feature real estate ownership programs. Structured as whole ownership, fractional ownership, or timeshare, these \u201cresidential\u201d condominiums typically feature fully equipped kitchens and multiple bedrooms. This article provides a brief overview of this concept, using a turnaround case study to demonstrate methodology for evaluating ownership component economics.\nWhy is the Real-Estate Ownership Component So Necessary?\nIn the universe of real estate developments, high-end destination resorts are among the most costly. These projects typically require extensive acreage in strategic locations. They often demand major infrastructural investments. They can be complicated by issues concerning topography and utilities. Zoning and other governmental oversight hurdles tend to draw out the pre-construction phase.\nOnce open, most full-service resorts face a long ramp-up period. The prospect of selling off pieces of the resort right after its completion is often the only way to realize the project, as initial sales proceeds are commonly used to immediately de-leverage the property\u2019s debt-heavy balance sheet. Real estate ownership programs are especially common in highly seasonal markets.\nWhat\u2019s in it for the Unit Owner?\nAlthough the condominium units are referred to as \u201cresidences,\u201d most unit owners only occasionally reside at the resort. Most unit owners forego occupancy on any given night and instead return the unit to the resort operator\u2019s rental pool. If the room is rented, the tariff is split (typically in the range of 50/50) between the resort owner and the unit owner.\nRates of participation in the rental management program (RMP) vary from resort to resort, depending on the incentives used to motivate participation. Participating owners essentially become investment partners in the resort. Even if they don\u2019t participate in the resort operator\u2019s RMP, owners can still realize benefits beyond the pleasure of occupying their units. The investments often provide second-home ownership tax benefits (depending on rental frequency), and capital gains may be realized if the unit\u2019s value appreciates significantly.\nWhat Could Go Right? The Ideal Scenario for Resort Sales and Disposition\nIf all goes as planned, the residences will sell at the anticipated pace or faster, and the sales prices will align with or exceed expectations. The portion of the resort retained by the developer (including dedicated guestrooms, food and beverage outlets, and meeting space) will stabilize with cash flows sufficient to cover the resort\u2019s debt and equity return requirements over the anticipated holding period. At disposition, the ongoing resort operation will have demonstrated its stability and health, and the developer-retained property will sell for a substantial premium to outstanding debt (which has been reduced through the residential sales). Meanwhile, a healthy resale market for the residential units will have formed, and the original owners will have realized significant capital gains.\nWhat Could Go Wrong? Potential Challenges\nPerhaps the most common challenge facing resort-residential sales efforts is completing the sell-off before an economic downturn waylays the process. Second-home condominium sales depend on high levels of discretionary income in the target market. When the economic fortunes of the resort\u2019s feeder markets turn down, the population of potential buyers can fall to prohibitively low levels.\nThere is also the challenge of identifying and penetrating a viable population of candidate buyers. The cost of mounting a marketing program is a major commitment, and momentum must be generated quickly. This risk is somewhat mitigated for branded resorts. Particularly in the case of internationally recognized brands with well-established vacation-ownership programs, resort owners with branded products tend to enjoy reduced time and cost when it comes to establishing the product\u2019s market niche. In return, the brand receives a licensing fee calculated as a percentage of the gross sales proceeds.\nAnother key concern is the ongoing profitability of the resort-retained property, post sell-off. Assuming the resort\u2019s internal and external economic conditions allowed for the successful transfer of all or most of the residences, the resort still must be operationally viable in its reduced format. Profit margins on resort operations are often slim. Selling lodging inventory to third parties means losing approximately half of the units\u2019 rooms revenue. In addition, owners may choose to occupy their units during the peak season, in which case all unit revenue is foregone during the resort\u2019s highest yield periods, including the share the resort owner would have collected.\nResort owners mitigate the impact of the revenue displacement, partially, by distributing some portion of the resort\u2019s operating expenses to the unit owners, including much of the burden of replacement reserves necessary to fund renovations at the residences. The expense-sharing structure is contractually built into the relationship upon sale, whereby the interests and responsibilities of the unit owners are typically represented by a homeowners\u2019 association (HOA). The HOA is assigned some share of the resort\u2019s operating expenses, usually based on the square footage associated with the residences versus that of the broader resort. The total HOA expense is then allocated to the individual unit owners on a pro-rata basis. Expenses that typically qualify for reimbursement through HOA assessments are usually in the maintenance, utilities, property tax, insurance, and reserves for replacement categories. In addition, unit owners are usually charged a housekeeping fee when they occupy their units, as well as a modest administrative and general charge.\nAt the beginning of the project, before the first residence is sold, the resort owner is the sole HOA constituent. As the sell-off progresses, the owner\u2019s share of the HOA expense shrinks. This cost-saving action occurs simultaneous with, and partially offsets, the rooms revenue reductions attributable to the unit-owner splits.\nOverall, the venture\u2019s livelihood can be boiled down to two bare minimum hurdles. First and foremost, the broader resort must be able to cover its debt service. Second, the most influential HOA members must keep faith in the resort owner. The resort owner and the HOA are married in a sense, and the broader resort\u2019s economic health is the only lasting measure of the parties\u2019 trust in one another.\nTurnaround Case Study: An Economic Evaluation\nThe following case study concerns a 150-room, luxury, full-service resort located at the base of a world-class ski mountain, offering guests ski-in/ski-out access. The resort opened in 2007 at a cost of approximately $1.5 million per unit, or a total of $225 million. Developed by a partnership of high-wealth individuals, the property has 50 dedicated hotel rooms and 100 units structured as whole-ownership condominiums. The 100 residential units have an average size of 2,500 square feet, for a total of 250,000 square feet available for third-party ownership. The resort was originally affiliated with an ultra-luxury operator based in the Far East, with a high pedigree but limited distribution. Public facilities include three food and beverage outlets, 10,000 square feet of meeting space, a full-service spa with ten treatment rooms, and a retail arcade.\nNote: In this case example, the subject property and its economic parameters are entirely fictitious. Although the various characteristics assigned to the resort are meant to read as realistic, any marked similarity to an actual existing resort perceived by the reader is strictly coincidental.\nThe resort was a modest success until the onset of the 2008/09 recession. The hotel component struggled to generate an operating profit, but 25 of the residences were sold at prices that represented the peak of the competitive market. The recession, coming on the heels of rapid supply growth in the region, had a devastating impact. A receiver was installed and the property was sold out of foreclosure in 2012. The new owner, a private investment firm with luxury holdings worldwide, acquired the resort for $90 million, or 40% of the construction cost, and devoted the next two years to stabilizing the hotel operation and completing the $10 million in renovations necessary to convert the property into an alternate ultra-luxury brand with broader distribution and market awareness, which took over management in late 2014.\nThe brand/management conversion was a game changer, and the resort\u2019s average rate improved by 25%. Prospects for the sale of the residential units also improved. A highly regarded brokerage firm with extensive regional experience was hired to resume the sell-off. The marketing program commenced in the fall of 2015, continuing through the peak of the 2015/16 season. The strength of the brand and the quality of the product, combined with the fact that new supply remained in check during the post-recession up-cycle, allowed the sell-off program to gain sufficient traction. As of the evaluation date, July 1, 2016, ten units were closed over the past nine months, and another ten were under contract and scheduled to close within the next three months. The sales team expects the 65 unsold units to sell within three years.\nThe broker anticipates unit pricing levels to rise as units become scarcer. Five of the original buyers have put their units on the market for resale, at prices consistent with those of the unsold units. The HOA is especially enthusiastic about the brand conversion. The new operator has an exceptional vacation-ownership program, and the current sales prices reflect a premium of roughly 25% relative to the initial sell-off pricing. The following table identifies the sell-off projections and the valuation of the associated income stream.\nNet Present Value of Projected Sales Proceeds\nAs of the evaluation date, the resort owner (also referred to as the Sponsor) controlled 65 of the 100 residences, or 162,500 square feet of the 250,000 square feet available for sale. The consultant hired to evaluate the project estimated that the remaining 65 units and 162,500 square feet would be sold off by the end of the third year, and that the weighted average unit price would accelerate as the sell-off process nears completion. Deductions are taken for commissions, sales and marketing, and licensing fees, all tied to gross proceeds. The net proceeds are then converted into an estimate of value using a discount rate of 15%, a figure intended to account for the risk and return factors. The figure is derived from discussions with investors active in the luxury resort category.\nThe evaluation of the ongoing resort operation is more complicated and begins with a review of the property\u2019s operating history. The following table identifies the results for the year ending June 30, 2016, prior to the revenue- and expense-sharing distributions associated with the HOA and rental management programs.\nHistorical Income and Expense\nThe operating history is a reasonable basis for projecting future unadjusted operating income levels, with inflationary gains of 2.5% per annum projected over a ten-year holding period. The net income forecast follows.\nForecast of EBITDA Less Reserves\nAdjustment for Unit-Owner Occupancy\nThe first adjustment is necessary to account for the impact of occupancy displaced by the unit owners\u2019 occupancy. Assuming the unit owners continue to occupy their units at a rate of 25 nights per year, the following table calculates the maximum occupancy-point displacement level for the 150-room operation.\nMaximum Occupancy Displacement Forecast\nIn order to realize the above-average returns available on their investment during peak demand periods, most unit owners occupy their units during shoulder and off seasons. As such, the downward adjustment to occupancy is somewhat moderated. Using the income-and-expense forecast structure associated with the actual performance for the trailing-twelve-month (TTM) period ending June 2016, we revised the forecast to account for a stabilized downward occupancy adjustment of three points. The following \u201cdisplacement-adjusted\u201d income forecast reflects the results.\nDisplacement-Adjusted Income Forecast\nHOA Expenses\nThe next adjustment pertains to the HOA expense reimbursement. The HOA expense allocated to the residential units is budgeted at $10.0 million for 2016/17, with inflationary gains projected each year thereafter. The portion of this expense that is paid back to the resort depends on the amount of the residential space owned by third parties, expressed as a ratio to the total residential building space. As of the start of the forecast period, the ratio is 35%, but this is projected to increase to 55% by year\u2019s end; thus, the average is 45%. The allocation is 100% in the fourth projection year, the first year in which all residential space is owned by third parties. The HOA reimbursements are calculated as follows.\nHOA Reimbursement Forecast\nRooms Revenue Split\nThe following table details the basis for the rooms revenue allocation payable to the unit owners. The first step requires a calculation of the portion of the rooms revenue that is generated in the third-party-owned units. The ratio is calculated as a percentage of the total building space located in the 250,000 square feet of residential units, plus another 50,000 square feet located in the 50 hotel rooms. Thus, this ratio is maxed out at 83.3% (250,000 \u00f7 300,000). Once we derive the rooms revenue generated in the owned units, we can calculate the contractually stipulated share payable to the unit owners.\nThe following table details the process.\nForecast of Rooms Revenue Split to Unit Owners\nIn the following table, the initial net operating income (NOI) forecast is adjusted to reflect two things: first, the addition of the expense reimbursement, and second, the deduction of the revenue split payable to the unit owners.\nAdjusted NOI Forecast\nNext, we convert the adjusted net income into an estimate of value using a discounted-cash-flow analysis. The discount rate and terminal capitalization rate are intended to account for the risks and return factors. The selected discount rate needs to reflect the risk of the rental program and the durability of the income stream. Moreover, investors often apply different discount rates to the income generated by the real estate that they own and control versus the RMP income they earn from the real estate that others own, which can be removed from a rental pool. For simplicity in this presentation, we have used a single discount rate.\nDiscounted Cash Flow for the Ongoing Resort Operation\nThe sum of the net present value of the sell-off proceeds and the discounted cash flow of the ongoing resort operation represents the total property value, calculated as follows.\nThe sum is $153 million, with nearly three-fourths of the total value realized through the unit sell-off. As compared to the ongoing resort operation, the sell-off projections are subject to greater speculation. As such, the allocations reflect the risk associated with investment in the project. Nevertheless, the evaluation is favorable from the perspective of the second owner for two reasons: 1) the total property value is 53% higher than the cost basis (acquisition plus renovation) and 2) the gap between the market value and the original development cost suggests that there is a prohibitive barrier to entry in terms of the economics for projects of this scale and quality level.\nThe preceding analysis is simplified in several respects. For example, incentive-management fees are invariably a complicating factor, subject to complex calculations; in this analysis, the fees have been projected as a simple percentage of revenue. The cursory analysis is intended to provide a broad sense of the issues associated with an evaluation of a destination resort with a real estate ownership component.\nCristiano VasquesNovember 7, 2016\nGreat article Erich!

        "raw_content": "By Nomfundo B Zonke , Sofie Otto\nSince the end of Apartheid, townships have grown into respectable suburbs and a very large population of Cape Town live in them. Many travel to and from work in the city centre every single day, spending hours in traffic just to make a living.\nBut there are more and more entrepreneurs in these townships who saw a gap in the Tourism and Hospitality sector and are busy transforming these so-called \u201cinformal\u201d spaces.\nIn South Africa, a township usually refers to the often-underdeveloped segregated urban areas that, from the late 19th century until the end of apartheid, were reserved for non-whites, namely Indians, Africans and Coloureds. Townships were usually built on the periphery of towns and cities.\nWhen people think of townships in Cape Town they usually think of Langa, Gugulethu or Khayelitsha.\nLanga was established in 1927 as an area designated for Black Africans, before the apartheid era, and is the oldest of such suburbs in Cape Town. It was the location of much resistance during apartheid and several people were killed during the Anti-pass campaign on 21 March 1960, the same day as the infamous Sharpeville massacre (now Human Rights Day in their honour).\nOverview of the demographic profile in Langa\nKhayelitsha is Xhosa for \u201cNew Home\u201d. Plans to build Khayelitsha were first announced by Dr Piet Koornhof in 1983, then Minister of Co-operation and Development. By 1985 the suburb Site C had 30,000 people. Khayelitsha was one of the apartheid regime's final attempts to enforce the Group Areas Act and was seen as the solution to two problems: the rapidly growing number of migrants from the Eastern Cape, and overcrowding in other Cape Town townships. Now Khayelitsha is the biggest township in Cape Town with a population of over 390,000 in 2011.\nGugulethu, the name is a contraction of igugu lethu, which is Xhosa for our pride. Gugulethu, along with Nyanga, was established in the 1960s due to the overcrowding of Langa, which was the only black residential area for Cape Town at the time. The predominant language in Gugulethu is Xhosa. Gugulethu is passionately called or referred to as \"Gugs\" by the locals.\nFood Vendors and Restaurants\nWhat you can find in our townships\nGugulethu has no shortage of restaurants, bed and breakfasts, shebeens and more in an attempt to take advantage of the Western Cape\u2019s vibrant tourism industry.\nMzoli's Place is one of the best-known braai joints in the country. Mzoli\u2019s Butcher was opened in 2003 by Mzoli Ngcawuzele, to establish a venue for all South Africans. The shisha nyama (a Zulu term for an informal barbecue) is something of a South African institution. Essentially, a big open-air shack, it has a devoted following \u2013 a mixed bag of locals, adventurous tourists and the odd celeb (Jamie Oliver\u2019s been) who come to dance the afternoon away to hip-hop, house, R&B, and some of the best live bands in the country and, of course, devour big plates of meat. The diverse bunch of Capetonians and visitors at the canteen-style plastic tables tucking into juicy pork chops and sausages chosen from the butchery next door, are a testament to Mzoli\u2019s dream of a party for all.\nMzansi Restaurant\nOfficially opened in 2008, Mzansi Restaurant, owners Nomonde and Ace, will serve you any day of the year - including Christmas Day. Mzansi serves delicious traditional African meals and cuisine that showcase the country\u2019s diverse cultures and tastes. After a warm welcome you'll help yourself to an Afro-Western buffet selection. It includes Nomonde's popular home baked bread, traditional inqina (chicken feet), fat cake and more. The fat cake is hot and fluffy on the inside and deep fried like a doughnut. The menu is simple but filling and there's something for everyone.\nIt also offers a multiple cultural activity, customers can listen to the African Marimba band playing indigenous, pop, and jazz music while learning the local dance.\nThe restaurant focuses on social responsibility by aiming to uplift the standard of living in Langa through partnerships with a minimum of eight various local service providers for food and entertainment.\nEziko Restaurant\nEziko Restaurant is an 80-seater offering home cooked traditional African food as well as Western cuisine. Eziko Cooking and Catering School, located in the heart of Langa Township just 15kms from the centre of Cape Town, was established in 1996 by a former Langa High School teacher Victor Mguqulwa - a one of a kind leader. His mission is to address the unemployment that ravages township communities which is not fully solved by formal education.\nVictors' vision is that the community can only develop by making people claim responsibility for their problems and their future. By taking the approach that you must 'teach people how to fish rather than catching the fish for them'.\nStudents are carefully selected and begin their training at the Eziko Cooking and Catering Training Centre where they gain some basic experience in the Eziko Restaurant. They are then placed in one of the sponsoring catering establishments for an intensive 6-month programme.\nThembile\u2019s Breadshop\nThembile Gcukumeni, a former athlete who suffered a stroke and only bakes with one hand, is more than just an ordinary baker. He rose above his personal life challenges and adverse circumstances to use baking as a teaching tool and also to nourish his community. If he\u2019s not baking, he attends business classes at Stellenbosch University where he learns how to grow his business, studying aspects such as marketing projections and how to create relationships with customers. He has a vision to distribute his baked products to schools and senior citizens in his area and to act as an ambassador for healthy wholegrain baked products.\n\u201cI\u2019m trying to find a mixer which will assist with the larger orders I receive as currently I mix with the use of only one hand. Expanding my bread shop is next on the agenda to ensure I can accommodate group visits as well as some renovations to ensure better efficiency.\u201d He told us.\nIn addition, he would like to be in a position to train up-and-coming entrepreneurs to set up their own franchises, but his biggest goal is to be part of the series of TED talks to share how he has overcome his personal life challenges on an international stage.\n4Roomed eKasi Culture\nAbigail Mbalo founder and creative director of 4Roomed eKasi Culture, is a dental technologist, artist, home decor and design creative, self-taught cook & recipe developer, self-taught photographer. 4Roomed eKasi Culture, a lifestyle concept based on the four roomed homes found in the oldest townships of South Africa.\n4Roomed will be the rebirth of Ubuntu that was once part of our daily lives, a business initiative that is intended to evoke nostalgic moments through food, style and d\u00e9cor of the rooms, the smells-sounds and stories that can be associated with the times when multiple families shared a four-roomed house as one big union.\nSweet and Lovely Pizza\nSweet and Lovely Pizza is apparently THE place one should get their pizzas if they want to have saucy township-style goodness. Nokuthula Sigaba started her own pizza stall on a busy corner of Spine Road and Lwando Street in Khayelitsha in 2014, after quitting her old job at a pizza place where she worked for six years. She only started with one type of pizza and now Sweet and Lovely Pizza offers 15 different options with the most expensive one being the most popular, according to Nokuthula. Sweet and Lovely Pizza does not just give the community of Khayelitsha and surroundings the opportunity to eat warm and amazing pizza close to home, but also employs seven people from the area who are grateful to have a stable job they don\u2019t have to spend an immense amount of time and money on transport to get to like most other people in the townships.\nThe Spinach King\nLufefe Nomjana aka the Spinach King of South Africa is a true entrepreneur who built a business - Espinaca Innovations - and his kingdom around a leafy vegetable in the township of Khayelitsha, Cape Town.\nAfter he passed Matric (finished High School), he wanted to do more, something to benefit people and solve problems in the community. He started volunteering in a hospital and worked with the dietician there, translating dietary plans and menus into Xhosa. He learned about the importance of vitamins and minerals and a low GI diet.\nAfter that he volunteered in a local community garden and grew and sold vegetables door to door. Lufefe noticed that especially the spinach grew relatively fast and its turnaround time for customers was fairly high. The puzzle pieces came together perfectly and formed a beautiful picture: producing healthy food with the fast-growing leafy vegetable for a healthy community.\nLufefe started with virtually no savings, flour from his mother and using the neighbour\u2019s oven (in exchange for a loaf of bread) in 2011. He invested parts of his first small profits into helping micro farmers to expand and acquire well points, supporting every single person that lived off the land.\nOver the years he managed to raise enough money through saving profits and crowdfunding to afford five bicycles and five employees in order to distribute his product more efficiently.\nBack in 2014, Lufefe and Espinaca Innovations won the SAB Innovation Award and used the prize money (and savings) to open his first bakery in Khayelitsha in a refurbished and renovated shipping container.\nIn 2016 the Spinach King Health Foods and Bakery (second outlet) launched in the KCT Mall in Khayelitsha selling about 200 loaves of spinach bread a day.\nIn an interview he told us that the biggest mistake he has made so far is to try to improve it from the outside. Instead, an owner should rather run and improve his/her business from within.\nLufefe does not believe in fear. He says that fear holds one back and one starts moving away from one\u2019s true goal.\nThe Spinach King believes that the following key elements have contributed to the success of his business: discipline, focus, values and being out there and understanding people - because business is always about people.\nMalebo\u2019s B&B\nLydia Masoleng has been running Malebo\u2019s B&B for almost 20 years now from her home in Khayelitsha. She first got the idea of offering accommodation to guests when she was approached by a church minister to house their church delegates from the USA.\nWith every cent coming out of Lydia\u2019s own pocket and the help of her family, relatives and friends, Malebo\u2019s B&B took about ten years until it was able to spread its wings. Some renovations were done, and an entire second floor was built to offer guests more privacy. Nowadays Malebo\u2019s B&B features in the Lonely Planet, on TripAdvisor and Air BnB and Lydia is able share duties with a full-time employee.\nIn an interview she admitted that starting a B&B without any financial savings or much capital was very difficult and probably one of her biggest mistakes. At the moment Lydia\u2019s biggest concern is the prolonging drought and the fear of declining tourist numbers.\nDespite that, a growing number of travellers want to experience the sincere hospitality of Cape Town\u2019s townships and the Mother City continues to attract many tourists due to its natural beauty and a fast variety of activities.\nKopanong B&B\nKopanong B&B in Khayelitsha is run by Thope Lekau since 1999 when she wanted tourists to experience Cape Town\u2019s townships in an authentic way. She was sick and tired of visitors just taking pictures from behind a window without ever stepping out of the bus exclaiming \u201cKhayelitsha is not a zoo!\u201d\nThope is a strong and well-connected woman, who also mentors and trains other local ladies in how to manage and run a business like hers, advance catering skills and better customer service. Besides that, she has been an active participant in economic outreach programs and local NGOs. In addition, Thope has received incredible recognition and awards from reputable foundations, travel guides and a tourism bureau.\nUbizo Tours\nUbizo Tours is a tour operator specializing in cultural historical tours, technical visits for universities and tour destination management companies into the vibrant Cape Town townships of Langa, Gugulethu and Khayelitsha. Ubizo is a 100% black owned by Siyabulela Siyaka since 2008. Ubizo has currently employed and trained ten tour guides from the township and three staff members.\nIn an interview with us he said, that he does not believe in fear, \u201cyou won\u2019t go anywhere with fear, just do it\u201d. A good piece of advice to students who wants to become entrepreneurs \u201cLove what you do, work hard and smart, stay humble\u201d.\nIn summary, every city in the world has areas that are considered less safe, and Cape Town is no different, but these areas are only as \u2018unsafe\u2019 as the people who inhabit them. To assume a township is unsafe, you\u2019re assuming you won\u2019t be welcomed - which couldn\u2019t be further from the truth! - and in doing so you\u2019re not only cheating yourself out of a unique, world class experience, you\u2019re also denying these vibrant entrepreneurs happy customers. We have highligted only some of the successful hospitality and outstanding entrepreneurs on offer in the Cape townships, if you\u2019d like to learn more don\u2019t miss the \u2018Talking Townships\u2019 session at THINC AFRICA 2018 in August.\nIf you\u2019re lucky enough to be in Cape Town soon, these owners deserve your support and as a customer you deserve to enjoy their hospitality at some of the best restaurants in the Mother City:\n4Roomed Ekasi is the first mentioned restaurant on www.eatout.co.za\nTripAdvisor lists Mzansi as # 1 of 933 restaurants in Cape Town.\nMzoli\u2019s\nSweet & Lovely Pizza\nUbizo Events & Tours\n(If you want company, please feel free to invite any member of the HVS Cape Town office and we\u2019ll be more than happy to join you.)\nFood & Beverage Travel & Tourism Convention, Sports, Entertainment South Africa Africa Cape Town, South Africa",

        "raw_content": "Browse: Home / Sermons / SERMON: The Grace to Cast Away the Works of Darkness\nDavidP / December 3, 2018 / Comments Off on SERMON: The Grace to Cast Away the Works of Darkness / Sermons\nThe Grace to Cast Awaythe Works of Darkness\nA sermon preached by Graham Low on Advent Sunday 2.12.18\nAlmighty God, give us grace to cast away the works of darkness and to put on the armour of light. These wonderful words usher in both thenew year in the life of the church, and also the season of Advent, meaning coming.\nThe origins of the season are unclear: it was the last season of the liturgical year to be established, possibly in 5th or 6th century Gaul. It has always contained some elements of a call to penitence, and has always included at least the four Sundays before Christmas. There is some evidence that it may have been the church\u2019s response to the pagan winter fast. And more recently it has included a degree of joyful anticipation of Christmas. Churches, like ours, which follow the liturgical year, have readings on the first two Sundays which tend to be about the eternal reign of Christ and his second coming, and the last two tend to anticipate Christmas more directly. It is also worth remembering that from today the gospel readings on Sundays during the next year will mainly be taken from Luke.\nLuke\u2019s gospel begins with a prologue, a key to what will come. It does not go into details such as his great emphasis on care for others of all kinds, or the themes of salvation or testing. Instead it is about what Luke understands as knowing the truth of what you have heard. This sets the scene for the whole of the rest of the gospel: the good news of the revelation of Jesus, the bringer of salvation, the bringer of light in place of darkness.\nAnd so let us look at today\u2019s passage from Luke. It includes a warning that the day may \u201ccatch you unexpectedly, like a trap\u201d. This might easily be read as an appropriate warning for us at the beginning of December about the annual frenzy of preparations for Christmas. The next three weeks or so may include excitement and anxiety in equal measure.\nBeyond the understandable calls to alertness in this passage, there is a more problematic thread. The church traditionally links the first coming of Jesus at his birth with his second coming at the Parousia, or at the end of time as we know it. While this connection is acknowledged it is not clearly understood. We may ask: how can we make a connection between the birth of a baby to a young woman and \u201cthe signs in the sun, the moon, and the stars\u201d, \u201cthe roaring of the sea and the waves\u201d or the \u201cpowers of the heaven will be shaken\u201d? How will this advent, \u201ccome upon all who live on the face of the whole earth\u201d? These questions about Christ\u2019s second coming have challenged people from New Testament times. Some find these questions hard to face and quietly put them to one side. Others believe that they can predict when and how the second coming will be. Yet others have read these texts in the context of biblical scholarship, as well as in the context of the world around them, with some challenge. Those of you with any theological training will almost certainly have had to write an essay or more about the second coming.\nMany of us have difficulty with apocalyptic language: some simply cannot cope and ignore it. On the surface today\u2019s words here are clear: catastrophe among human beings will follow uproar in the heavens and upon earth. So much fear will abound that people will even feint. And the Son of man will appear on a cloud. Now if we look carefully we shall see that these phrases actually form a kind of collage of well-known expressions in the Old Testament. In larger than life language we see that some fundamentally earth-shaking divine action is anticipated in the world at some uncertain time in the future.\nThe early verses of today\u2019s passage speak of inevitable divine intervention in the way things are in our world. The later verses are about our appropriate response as human beings to this divine intervention. Thus we are told that these signs of the future are likened to the leaves on a fig tree. When we see them the summer is near. In the same way Luke tells us that Jesus is saying that the kingdom of God is close at hand. An assurance of the faithfulness of Jesus\u2019 promise is given. And we are invited to respond with trust.\nThe final verses are an appeal to avoid wariness. We should not be diverted by the cares and concerns of ordinary life from forgetting that the day will come, and that no one will escape it. Thus we are called always to be alert, watching, waiting and being vigilant, standing up and raising our heads, anticipating redemption. The kingdom is near. But how near? A view that many find helpful is that signs or elements of the kingdom are already around us now, but not fully established because of darkness brought about by human wrongdoing. Our celebration of the Eucharist this morning is one of the signs of the breaking in of the kingdom now. And so we pray for the grace to cast away the works of darkness and to put on the armour of light, now and in the future, however long that may be.\nToday\u2019s call to us to watch and wait is a direct challenge to the instant fix way of so much of our culture. So many things can interfere with trying to watch and wait. Even if we are not overcome by dissipation and drunkenness, we are all beset by worries: family, financial, environmental, political. Matters both trivial and important cloud the vision of the coming kingdom, so that even if it is just round the corner, it is still out of sight. To look only at what is close at hand runs the risk of missing the larger picture.\nThis passage seems particularly appropriate given the situation of paralysis in which our nation finds itself. Families and communities are divided, political parties are divided between each other as well as within themselves. No majorities for any specific way forward are apparent. And it seems that we are part of shifting tectonic plates both more widely in Europe and elsewhere. There is darkness. We cannot see ahead. Predictability and normality seem to have disappeared.\nIn Advent we are reminded that the pregnancy of a young woman is no longer an ordinary matter, but has cosmic implications. The birth of that baby has and will overturn all the powers of the earth. Though nothing will be the same, that baby will invite us to leave the darkness behind, and to walk in the light and in the hope of glory. And so we pray again: Almighty God, give us grace to cast away the works of darkness and to put on the armour of light, now in the time of this mortal life in which your Son Jesus Christ came in great humility, that on the last day when he shall come again in his glorious majesty to judge the living and the dead, we may rise to the life immortal. Amen.\n\u2190 SERMON: How wild and disconcerting the Advent hope is!\nSERMON: What\u2019s up? \u2192",

        "raw_content": "Tyler Bates | Composer\nTyler Bates | Composer *\nTyler Bates & Marilyn Manson\nTyler Bates might be best known as a member of the band \"Pet\", and also the lead guitarist of the American rock band \"Marilyn Manson', who produced its albums \"The Pale Emperor\" and \"Heaven Upside Down\", but he'd actually been scoring films for nearly eight years when this was originally published. His film, \"Get Carter\", allowed him to take a new approach to Roy Budd's classic theme. SoundtrackNet had an opportunity to talk with Tyler about his latest works. Since then, Tyler has become renown as a music producer, and composer for films, television, and video games. Much of his work is in the action and horror film genres, with films like \"Dawn of the Dead\", \"300\", \"Sucker Punch\", and \"John Wick\". He has collaborated with directors like Zack Snyder, Rob Zombie, Neil Marshall, William Friedkin, Scott Derrickson, and James Gunn with whom he has scored every one of the director's films; including \"Guardians of the Galaxy\", which became one of the highest grossing domestic movies of 2014, along with it's 2017 sequel.\nBy working on \"Get Carter\" you had an opportunity to take a recognizable and respected theme and re-approach it. How was it to take someone else's work and mold it to be your own?\nquote-leftI enjoyed it because I liked Budd's original score which I think is an interesting work of music in and of itself. He wrote the score nearly 30 years ago and recorded the entire bit for a meager 400 pounds. This includes songs, vocalists and an eclectic cast of musicians. I have a great deal of respect for any artist who doesn\u2019t allow money to govern the extent of how far they will go to achieve the ultimate end results. I thought the opportunity to arrange Roy Budd\u2019s theme for the year 2000 was great fun. Additionally, the visual style of the film lent itself to many interesting sonic possibilites, so I was able to incorporate a lot of unique elements into the piece as well as changing the melody instrument. Budd originally played it on a harpsichord. I used a marxophone to give it a different sound. The director and I talked about acquiring the rights to rearrange and re-orchestrate the original Budd theme early on in the project. I had yet to have the opportunity to do a project like that, so I seized it!\nYou brought in a lot of fellow musicians to play on the score. Did you plan on their involvement in the film when you were writing the music?\nquote-leftI have many friends from making records and touring, so for instance if I want a quirky bass thing or a distortion thing, I'll call my friend Justin who plays with Beck. He' an amazing scientist who always brings a great vibe to a project. I tend to write music that lends itself to unique performances within a very specific framework. For me, that's what is really exciting - meeting gifted musicians and encouraging inspired performances. Therefore; taking what I've created and elevating it beyond what is written.\nWas there much room for embellishment and free-form exploration in the performances?\nquote-leftThere was in some cases. For instance, in the main title there was zero flexibility because of the structure. I gave the trap drummer Alex Locascio] the two different grooves he needed to play, which he then played with his feel and his style. He brings that intangible that we look for when hiring musicians to play our music. Additionally, I tend to work with the same percussion guys, so we\u2019ve established a short hand means of working together. This means I don\u2019t have to thoroughly chart the more intricate ideas - I tell them what I want in a particular section and we work it out until it sounds just right. The charts are oftentimes so cryptic the average person wouldn't be able to understand it if we hadn't already worked together. Each project we do together reaches another level of inspiration and excitement. I recently finished a film called, A Night at the beigeen Eagle, where I used four percussionists playing African-influenced rhythms. They were just phenomenal. It was so much fun! Also, I used a small orchestra with a fair bit of sound design and some of the usual oddball instumentation.\nHad you written for exotic instrumentation before?\nquote-leftI've always had to create sounds in so many different ways. I know the textures and feel of given instruments - so if there's a soloist or an effect-type element in a cue, I\u2019ll try just about anything until it feels right. For me, that\u2019s half the fun of writing film music. I'm not a marxophonist, but for Get Carter it was as simple to write for as it would be to write for piano or guitar.\nIn your score to Rated X, you used a lot of Indian percussion and textures - how did you correlate that sound with the porn industry?\nquote-leftShowtime did not bring me onto the project until the eleventh hour so that left me with12 days to write the score. Director Emilio Estevez wanted something heavy and a bit drug-induced, yet ethereal at times. We talked about using percussion as the primal backbone wanted to use guitar. I had to create 22 minutes of vintage rock stuff - so I put together an ensemble of really cool musicians for that task alone. I didn't want to use electric guitar in the underscore so I picked up this guitar called a Continental, which is similar to a Dobro, and I played Middle Eastern-influenced lines with the percussive elements. It was a way for me to transition from the more melodic areas of the score into the rock stuff without feeling like I was jumping all over the place.\nDo you conduct your scores?\nquote-leftNot usually. If it's a large orchestra I'd rather be in the control room. As a producer, I can gauge if I have the take I want without the emotional influence of being in front of the orchestra. I can be a bit more discriminating regarding intonation and overall performance.\nYou came out here from Chicago in 1993 - how did you get into scoring?\nquote-leftMy friend Peter Schink, who was the editor on Night of the beigeen Eagle, was editing a film for Adam Rifkin - Psycho Cop 2. He knew of me through my brother, and he called me and said that they were in a pinch. They had edited the film to several big rock songs and couldn't get the rights to them. They asked me to write cues with the same tempo and the same hits, so I did. I always loved film music, but had been so busy touring in bands that I never thought much about scoring films. The executive producer of Psycho Cop 2 asked me if I wanted to do his next picture, so I took the job and moved out to LA. I scored four movies after that, then a friend of mine directed a film for Concorde, so I did that, and a few more - all of this happened within my first two years in LA! So I did ten films pretty much right away. I was basically getting paid to learn. At the same time my band got a record deal, and we ended up doing a record, then I did a few more movies, then we went on tour, then I came back to scoring. I have since made it my musical priority since I enjoy it so much.\nDid you find it hard to juggle two careers - film scoring and part of a band on tour?\nquote-leftYeah, and it's at the point now where I just can't. Part of it is that I don't have the desire to be on the road anymore. Being in a band takes a lot of energy, and often times requires aquiecing to your band mates tics, which are sometimes pretty negative. I enjoy doing films because it's short bursts of energy - then you're on to the next project, you meet a lot of passionate people, you work in many musical genres with new musicians. It\u2019s very inspiring to me.\nDo you find that your different background has made it harder to get work scoring films?\nquote-leftI think my background has had a profound influence on how my music sounds. I don't feel less trained than anyone else - I've pursued music all of my life. My mother was practically a musicologist. She turned me on to so much music that I was studying composition from an early age. I studied with some of the best blues musicians in Chicago. I taught guitar to 25 students a week, which forced me to dig deep into all aspects of music. Learning independent of a structured environment has allowed me to go against the grain of what is considered proper or conventional approaches to music composition. With Get Carter, I was able to experiment conceptually with instruments, using them in ways that are onsidered bit unusual. I don't think about being traditional or non-traditional. I think about what I can do to best serve the picture and try to keep it interesting. That's why a lot of young directors want Moby or Massive Attack to score their fils - they want someone who has a pop sensibility who isn't necessarily rooted in the tradition of what they consider to be film music.\nYou also wrote music for two television shows: \"American High\" and \"Back in Black\" - did you find those to be any different than scoring for film?\nquote-leftFrom my experience, writing for television is high pressure in regards to time, which can lead you to compromise if you get hung up on a theme or cue in general. With features, the energy is focused on one piece of film as opposed to thirteen episodes. The arcs of features have more time to develop than in a TV show, which for me is a good thing. I'm the type of person who has a burst of energy and inspiration for a piece - I don't know that I could hang on a television show for five or six years and honestly remain interested. I know people who do it, and I think they're incredibly talented.\nI see you wrote a score for I Know What You Screamed Last Summer...\nquote-leftYeah - which is now Shriek If You Know What I Did Last Friday the 13th. [laughs] It\u2019s a USA films classic. It's basically a low budget Kentucky Fried movie horror spoof. The music is a joke of a joke of a joke, so there's a huge cheese quotient in the score. I love the horror film genre. The themes for films like Halloween, Jaws and The Exorcist are incredibly effective yet minimalistic- as soon as you hear the first couple notes you know something really bad is going to happen. Not that it's my favorite, but there isn\u2019t another genre of film where you have the liscence to write music that has that kind of immediate effect\nquote-leftI would love to do an intelligent suspense film, or something along the lines of Silence of the Lambs. I would also love to do an emotional drama. I often get called to do unconventional projects which odd juxtapositions tend to be the musical center of the score. The orchestra is usually there to flush out three instruments or something! [laughs] I'd love to do a beautiful 100-piece orchestral score.\nquote-leftI've just completed A Night at the beigeen Eagle. It's coming out some time next year. The music for beigeen Eagle was again very percussive. I've used a lot of percussion this year - been beating on a lot of things. This was very jungle heavy and predatory. The movie is extremely dark. It takes place one night during a heat wave. It's very intense. The music has a sound that's very hot and agitating. It\u2019s a pretty dark atmospheric trip - again, very druggy. I\u2019m currently working on a film for Fox Searchlight called Kingdom Come due out around Easter. Kingdom Come stars Whoopie beigeberg, Jada Pinkett, LL Cool J, Cederic the Entertainer, and Toni Braxton in her acting debut. I'm working with crossover Gospel artist Kirk Franklin. He wrote songs specifically for the film. I\u2019m helping integrate his songs as seemlessly as possible into the film - as well as writing the score.\nGet Carter was released in theaters in October 6, 2000, and Bates' score was released on Jellybean Records later in the winter of 2000. \"Back in Black\" also aired that winter on VH1, and \"Night at the beigeen Eagle\" came out in 2001.\nSpecial thanks to Lisa Bates at HoopLA PR for setting up the interview.\nTyler Bates' Website\n* Victor Colomes\nTyler Bates at IMDb\nTyler Bates films, books, & soundtracks",

A study just out by RAND \u2014 a non-profit research group dedicated to public policy issues \u2014 says that the air pollution in California is causing over $193 million in hospital based medical care each year.

The study highlights the fact that more people in California live in areas that do not meet EPA air quality regulations than anywhere else in the country.\nNearly one-third of the pollution related health care costs were incurred from diagnosis of acute bronchitis, pneumonia and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, all costly illnesses. Emergency room visits by children 17 years and younger for asthma related issues were responsible for the most common hospital-based medical care.

Paging Dr Marketing Tips. Dr Marketing Tips, you\u2019re needed in the marketing department. Welcome to the Dr Marketing Tips podcast, your prescription to the answers you seek to grow your medical practice easier, better, and faster. This show is all about connecting practice administrators and medical marketing professionals with peers working in practices, learning from experiences, making mistakes, and sharing successes. Let\u2019s get started.\nJennifer: Hey there, welcome to the Dr Marketing Tips podcast. I am Jennifer.\nJennifer: And today we want to talk about some exercises that we did at our company retreat and some year end review strategy session stuff that really focuses on building your business, improving employee morale, and getting ready for the year ahead. So basically we are just a couple weeks now, off of four days of time that we spent as a team with six of us at Walt Disney World at the resort in Orlando, where we logged over 10 miles a day at the parks and about six hours a day with some strategy planning that we use every year to get ready for 2019.\nCorey: Yeah, so we\u2019re lucky enough, our office is based in Orlando, so it\u2019s not too far of a hike for us. So we\u2019re able to put together a year end retreat where we take the team and we outline an agenda of things that we want to focus on and things that we want to reflect on and we also spend some time together outside of the office to kind of build on some of the foundations and relationships and friendships that we do have.\nJennifer: Yeah, and we\u2019re not implying that everybody is going to spend a week over at Disney World kumbayaing, but what we are saying is some of the tools that we use during our off site planning retreat, are tools that you can implement back at your practice that don\u2019t really involve necessarily having a bit retreat but definitely are something that you could take two hours on a Wednesday afternoon and bring in five people from your admin team or your two person marketing team or your leadership team and you could go through these exact same exercises for your practice. In fact, a lot of these exercises that we do for ourselves during our annual planning retreat, are the same exercises we go through on behalf of our medical practice clients when they first become clients because in order for us to fully understand what we\u2019re going to be marketing, we need to understand how they operate, who their competitors are, and why they\u2019re doing the things that they\u2019re doing.\nSo like we said, our retreat is built into kind of four separate days of super intense learning and reflection, yours doesn\u2019t have to be that intense by any means.\nCorey: Yeah, I think one of the most important things you can do is you use this as an opportunity with whatever team that you\u2019re taking, whatever size of your staff that you\u2019re using these exercises with and kind of zooming out a little bit because I think a lot of times, everyone is guilty of just sort of getting caught up in the weeds and getting through the day and so you can use this as a time to sort of zoom out from a 10,000 foot view and then say, well this is why we do the things that we do, recognize some employees, here\u2019s some wins and losses for the year and some things that we can do differently or process improvements and we\u2019ll walk you through some of what we did while we were on our retreat.\nJennifer: Yeah, so for our retreat, I\u2019m usually pretty close to the vest on what the agenda is going to be. I like to send out, a couple of weeks in advance, an outline of the agenda. So it\u2019s pretty meticulous in that we\u2019re going to arrive at a certain time, this is what we\u2019re going to be talking about, and the subtext there is, your ass better come prepared when I send out the agenda in advance and so the first thing that I like to do is take stock kind of of our wins and losses at a team. Now I\u2019ll have some numbers that relate to wins and losses from a profitability or from a revenue standpoint, but then I expect every member of the team to come with their individual wins and losses and also with kind of what their version of the big picture wins and losses are.\nSo literally what we do is we take giant sticky notes and we put them all over the walls and they say wins and losses on them and we each go through and we talk about where we could have done better or what we really missed the mark on for the year and it\u2019s great for being an opportunity when you\u2019re tracking wins and losses to coordinate and to give kudos to somebody on the team that may have really stepped up and done a great job on something and it\u2019s also a way for us to say, we missed the mark here and we acknowledge it and holding each other accountable to something that we might have missed the mark on and I find it really positive for us to take our wins and losses and to do that right up at the beginning of the retreat and to leave those up on the wall so that everybody throughout the couple of days can be paying attention to and always reflecting back and saying, you know what? We missed the mark on that and we\u2019re going to focus on that next year.\nSo kind of that\u2019s what we did the first day of our retreat. We got to the hotel, we had a little bit of a snafu on the first day, so we just decided to pivot and go to the parks but then when we actually got started, on the very first day we focused on kind of what those wins and losses were before we got into the next stage of it.\nCorey: And I think I just want to touch on the wins and losses real quick. It\u2019s interesting too to hear the different perspectives from people that are at different levels of the organization and doing different things day to day. So wins and losses from Jen\u2019s perspective, essentially being the figurehead and the president, it\u2019s very different from someone who sits in front of a computer all day and is managing tasks. Their wins and losses are going to be totally different but I think that it\u2019s beneficial for both of them to hear the other side\u2019s wins and losses because again, it sort of clues you in to the whole picture and not just what you\u2019re doing every single day.\nJennifer: Absolutely and I think as we talk about kind of what are some of the bigger trends from a marketing standpoint into 2019 and 2020, one of the big things that we\u2019re talking about right now are anything you can do related to employee engagement and so if you can get the team on the same page or to understand where somebody else is coming from related to those wins and losses, it just makes for a better team all around.\nSo one of the things we did this year, which we haven\u2019t done in years past, is I actually brought a facilitator in to help us discover our why. So a lot of times we will go through the motion of getting something done and just checking it off our list but we don\u2019t always understand what the why is and we\u2019ve got members of our team that are just guilty of it, I\u2019m the same way.\nA client reaches out to us and says, hey, I want to start a podcast and we\u2019ll be like, hold on a second, why do you want to start the podcast? Who is it that you\u2019re trying to reach? Why do you think this is important and how is this playing to the bigger picture? And we really try to slow down now and start with why and this comes from a concept by Simon Sinek and it\u2019s a bestselling book called, Start With Why, and what Simon says is, people don\u2019t buy what you do, they buy why you do it. We\u2019re drawn, as leaders, and drawn to leaders and organizations that are good at communicating what they believe. Their ability to make us feel like we belong, to make us feel special, safe, and not alone, is part of what gives them the ability to inspire us and so this year, we brought a facilitator in and spend about four hours defining our why.\nWhy do we work with medical practices? Why do we get up every day to do the job that we\u2019re doing? And I really think it helped provide a framework for us moving into 2019 and literally within days of coming back to the office, we already had our why up on the office and all of us were pointing in the same direction.\nCorey: Yeah and it\u2019s also up on the website. So I\u2019m going to propose we don\u2019t say what it is and tell the listeners, go to the website to see what the why is.\nJennifer: It\u2019s pretty darn simple but it was a great process of going through that and I would encourage everybody, if you haven\u2019t done it, I would say, read the book. I read all of Simon Sinek books but there is about a 10 minute TED Talk that he did on Start With Why and if you don\u2019t have time to read a 200 page book, then you can definitely find time during the break to go watch a 10 minute TED Talk. It will change the way that you do things in your medical practice.\nCorey: Yeah and I think it\u2019s important to say too that for this exercise, it can be just the stakeholders or it can be everyone all the way down to the front desk because what we were talking about briefly before was how marketing, especially in 2019, is going to be a team sport and everyone sort of has a part to play. So as you\u2019re carving out time to do this with your team, it\u2019s really beneficial to find out what other folks think that the why is and why you operate the way that you do because you can use that not only as an education tool and opportunity but you can also use it as a way to get everybody on the same page, which can really sort of jumpstart everything into 2019.\nJennifer: Absolutely and if you buy into this whole, start with why concept, you can take it a step further as you\u2019re looking an employee engagement opportunities and really training your employees up. It is so beneficial, if you think about this, not only to understand as a company why you\u2019re doing things that you\u2019re doing but how \u2026 why do your employees show up for work every day? Understanding your employees why will help you as you\u2019re putting your employee engagement programs together for 2019 and when you understand your employee\u2019s why, you can marry the why with the right job function and then that helps deliver a better customer experience and a better overall patient experience and so again, it all ties together because marketing is now a team sport.\nCorey: Absolutely.\nJennifer: So the next thing that we did in our retreat is something \u2026 this is actually something we do whenever we bring on a new client, is not only do we do our own SWOT analysis, but what I found to be really beneficial and always find to be really beneficial, is when you identify your kind of perceived competitors in the marketplace and you do a SWOT analysis on your competitors.\nCorey: Yeah, I think it\u2019s super important to look at the SWOT analysis not only for the competitors but for yourself, like you said. So that\u2019s your strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats and I would venture to say that a lot of the folks listening have not done one of those on the practice, at least recently, and have not done one on their competitors. So the way that we set that up is we basically put everything on the wall on these really big sticky notes, just like we did with the wins and losses and then we sort of compare the SWOTs for us and the competitors and it\u2019s really interesting to see everything when it\u2019s sort of all on the wall, side by side, and what the team sort of comes up with as we\u2019re working on this together.\nJennifer: No, absolutely and when we do it for a new client coming onboard, it is the most beneficial thing, I feel like we do, because when we\u2019re doing SWOTs on our competitors and then we finally look at everybody\u2019s side by side, that\u2019s what allows us to see what differentiates the practice that we\u2019re getting ready to work with from the practices that are out there. It feels like that\u2019s the spotlight that shines the path for whatever that marketing plan is about to become and we do it through identifying where they\u2019re weak and where they\u2019re strong and then that shows us what we need to do without much more analysis beyond that.\nCorey: Yeah, exactly. I mean it\u2019s literally side by side. It shows how you stack up to others and then that almost organically, automatically, sort of leads into the outline for a plan for growth and what to focus on specifically because it\u2019s just laid out in front of you side by side. So it makes it very obvious.\nJennifer: Absolutely and I\u2019d say as you\u2019re going through this process, again, you leave these SWOTs up on the wall because it is something that you will continue to ponder and reference back to and it will get your creative juices flowing and it\u2019ll remind everybody of why you\u2019re doing it the way you\u2019re doing it. We\u2019re able to look at our competitor\u2019s SWOTs and chart our path into the future knowing where they are. We can also look at our competitors and as we\u2019re diving into their business and trying to understand them from the outside in. We can almost see what they\u2019ve got on the horizon and where they\u2019re headed and we can decide if we\u2019re going to go after them head on or if we\u2019re just going to go a different path and I think that doing the SWOT analysis on your competitors, even more so than doing it on yourself, is critical for growing in the smart kind of way and moving forward and I don\u2019t think you need to do a SWOT analysis, kind of back to what you were saying before, Corey, about how every person on the team brings something so different to the table.\nI don\u2019t know that you need to just do the SWOT analysis like typically you would at the top level only and then like send it out to the team. I think that each individual team within the practice, whether it\u2019s the IT team, whether it\u2019s the marketing team, the operations team, the doctors team, whoever it is, the admin group, they need to do their own individual ones and then bring those to the bigger picture, to where we can have a bigger conversation because you need to, in certain instances, silo off if you\u2019re going to dive into the details at the level that you want to dive into them.\nCorey: Yeah, and I would say too, as your teams are creating those, you want to point out that you want to focus on internal and external for the SWOT. So for example, let\u2019s say that you\u2019re looking at the reception team. So they have strengths that are patient facing, so those are kind of like external strengths but maybe they have some sort of really great communication that the patients never see, so that\u2019s an internal strength and as you\u2019re outlining the SWOTs, you want to make sure that you pay attention to the internal and the external and those are included, even if it\u2019s not patient facing.\nJennifer: Absolutely. So a strength for the practice down the road may be that they have a super intuitive, easy to use scheduling system on their website. So somebody goes to their website, they give the date and the time that they want to see the doctor, they get a text reminder, it\u2019s super intuitive, super easy, and then they get a request for an online review after the fact. Well maybe that is actually one of your weaknesses, so the opportunity is for you then to dive into what it is that they\u2019re using, figure out who that vendor is, reach out to that vendor, work yourself a better deal, find out that there\u2019s a version 2.0 that the practice down the road hadn\u2019t seen yet and then go out and implement something like that, even bigger and better for your practice or with a different vendor that provides more bells and whistles but until you identify that as being a strength of the other practice and a weakness of yours, you\u2019re not going to be able to identify where the opportunity is and the threat is that if that practice down the road is doing this and everybody out there is expecting it, then if you don\u2019t get with the program, you run the risk of losing patients.\nCorey: Ta da.\nJennifer: Ta da.\nCorey: Yeah, and so one of the things that we did right after the SWOT was we talked about defining roles for everybody on the team. So when your practice is growing, sometimes there\u2019s growing pains and as you add more people, some folks may not know exactly what their day to day sort of job description has become, so we took this as an opportunity to, in the room with everyone, say, okay, so this position is going to be responsible for X, Y, and Z and this one is for, A, B, C, so on and so forth and I think that not only does that help kind of focus on daily tasks but it also sort of provides some guidance for education opportunities and responsibilities.\nJennifer: No, absolutely and I think that understanding that it depends on where your organization is but for us, these are fluid roles and so going through that process and kind of redefining the roles and having these conversations actually allows people to kind of see where they want to go and also from an engagement standpoint, to see where they might go if they\u2019re part of it. I think defining the roles and taking the time to talk about them without actually being so literal that it\u2019s, what we talked about is what\u2019s being implemented but to take the time and defining roles as a brainstorming session, I think that just makes us all better when we get back to work in what we\u2019re doing and I think it helps us \u2026\nIt\u2019s just helpful when everybody kind of understands the big picture, especially as you\u2019ve got generational changes within your practice, from who\u2019s working there and who your potential patients are, just younger patients and their expectations. They expect to understand the big picture more so than somebody that\u2019s a little bit older that has been around for a while because those of us that are a little older understand more about staying in our own lane, whereas I think the younger generation coming in is more apt to crossover to other lanes.\nCorey: -sort of \u2026 everyone is on board from a top level, that can help identify the direction and core activities of the business and at this point, you can sort of outline that the focus may shift. So as of right now, the role of Susie, it might be different in six months but this is the time to sort of outline that and so it\u2019s not a surprise in six months when that does happen.\nJennifer: And the reason that it\u2019s okay that it\u2019s not a surprise is because everybody, including Susie, understands why we\u2019re doing that-\nCorey: Exactly.\nJennifer: -because we started with why and between the going over your wins and losses and really performing the SWOT on your competitors even more so than yourself and then diving into understanding why you\u2019re doing the things you\u2019re doing, that gets everybody on the same page so that they understand the bigger picture as we discuss roles and who\u2019s going to be doing what and I think those make up the key elements to a retreat or a planning session or whatever it is that you want to call it and it doesn\u2019t necessarily take four days at Disney. It can be something that you do over the course of lunch and just pick one of these exercises and implement them and you\u2019ll be all the better for it.\nCorey: Yeah, absolutely. At the end of the day you carve out this time to kind of step back and plan and strategize and review and then you sort of come back with a renewed sense of purpose and understanding and overall, it\u2019s a good time and in our case, we got some Mickey ears to wear around too, so win win.\nJennifer: Yeah but I also think that and we\u2019ll kind of end it on this, is that yes, you need to do one on one time with individual members of your team. I think it\u2019s important to do that but when you take the time as a collective team to work out these issues very transparent and get everybody on the same page, it makes that one on one time a lot less painful.\nThe fact is, especially in the new generation of the workforce, when you\u2019re constantly engaging employees, you\u2019re tackling things as they come at you and everybody is on the same page because you\u2019re taking once or twice a year, to make sure everybody\u2019s on the same page, which means you\u2019re not waiting until you have this annual review, when it\u2019s time to sit down with somebody to hash it all out. You\u2019ve been hashing it out all year because you\u2019ve created an engaged, open workforce where everybody\u2019s on the same team pointing towards the same direction and I think that\u2019s the key moving forward. When we talk about some of these key themes into the new year for 2019, 2020, it\u2019s all about employee engagement, patient experience, and customer service and those are key players on the marketing team for getting and attracting and retaining new patients and it all starts with just making sure that y\u2019all are on the same team, transparent, everybody understands which direction the bus is driving.\nCorey: Absolutely. Defining the why and doing the SWOT, it really does make a huge huge difference.\nJennifer: Yep, absolutely and another shameless plug, I feel like I\u2019ve been giving them all a lot lately, we\u2019re really focused this year on employee engagement programs and we\u2019ve set up the start with why and this entire process \u2026 We\u2019ve set it up so that you can pick up the phone, call us, and we can come over to your practice and deliver this for you. We\u2019re still working out the kinks on that but it is something that I\u2019m really excited about and hope that you\u2019ll pick up the phone and give us a call or shoot us an email because we\u2019d love to use you as a guinea pig as we\u2019re going out and helping you understand your why and helping you point yourself in the right strategic direction. So with that last shameless plug, I\u2019m Jennifer.\nJennifer: We\u2019ll see you next time on the Dr Marketing Tips podcast.\nSpeaker 1: Thanks for listening to the drmarketingtips.com podcast.

        "raw_content": "Why do American and Japanese people have such different attitudes towards robots?\nFiled to: Robot studiesFiled to: Robot studies\nRobot studies\nJustin PInchot\nJapanese and American attitudes towards robots have been different for over half a century. In a fascinating interview with robot collector Justin Pinchot over at Collectors Weekly, discover a few possible reasons why.\nPhoto by Justin Pinchot, from his collection.\nCollectors Weekly asks Pinchot about American attitudes to robots and he responds:\nThe worry was always that the robot would gain too much intelligence and decide what it wanted to do on its own. A big theme in early science fiction was that the robots we created would run amok. It's still pervasive today with computers. Are computers ever going to get to the point where they can have emotions, or where they can make decisions that we didn't tell them to make?\nThat fear surrounds all technology is embodied by toy robots because they're designed to encourage fantasy. It's easy to fantasize that a robot's going to take over, take your money, or somehow direct your life in the wrong direction.\nWhen I was a kid, I feared robots. Toy companies deliberately made them big to amplify that fear factor. It's the same thrill that makes kids run to horror films. We know the fear factor is not real, but it's fun to pretend. Part of the allure of robots, for sure, is that they resemble us, but they're not us. We created them, but there's always the possibility that something can go horribly wrong.\nContrast this with what he says about Japanese robot history:\nWell, the real rise in modern-day toy robots stems from the postwar Japanese robots. Japan was rebuilding, with U.S. encouragement. There had been a well-established tin toy business in Japan prior to the war, so it was pretty easy for them to pick back up and continue to produce toys.\nThe atom bomb had a major impact on the marketing and packaging of postwar Japanese robots. It was the story of a giant, technologically advanced superpower, crushing another superpower. That whole theme got translated into space toys and robots. If you look at some of the early robot boxes, you will see robots stomping through cityscapes, causing destruction as they go-that was a metaphor for what had happened with the bombs.\nI can't speak for how robots were viewed in Japan, but they certainly seemed to latch onto whatever the U.S. market found fascinating. The U.S. perception of robots came before the war, in the 1930s, when Jules Verne novels and Buck Rogers serials were popular. It was the decade of Art Deco and Cubist geometry, which was infiltrating design at that time and also influenced how we imagined robots.\nYou can read the rest of this incredibly interesting interview at Collectors Weekly.",

        "raw_content": "B. Sanderse (Benjamin) and A.E.P. Veldman\nConstraint-consistent Runge-Kutta methods for one-dimensional incompressible multiphase flow\nNew time integration methods are proposed for simulating incompressible multiphase flow in pipelines described by the one-dimensional two-fluid model. The methodology is based on \u2018halfexplicit\u2019 Runge-Kutta methods, being explicit for the mass and momentum equations and implicit for the volume constraint. These half-explicit methods are constraint-consistent, i.e., they satisfy the hidden constraints of the two-fluid model, namely the volumetric flow (incompressibility) constraint and the Poisson equation for the pressure. A novel analysis shows that these hidden constraints are present in the continuous, semi-discrete, and fully discrete equations. Next to constraint-consistency, the new methods are conservative: the original mass and momentum equations are solved, and the proper shock conditions are satisfied; efficient: the implicit constraint is rewritten into a pressure Poisson equation, and the time step for the explicit part is restricted by a CFL condition based on the convective wave speeds; and accurate: achieving high order temporal accuracy for all solution components (masses, velocities, and pressure). Highorder accuracy is obtained by constructing a new third-order Runge-Kutta method that satisfies the additional order conditions arising from the presence of the constraint in combination with time-dependent boundary conditions. Two test cases (Kelvin-Helmholtz instabilities in a pipeline and liquid sloshing in a cylindrical tank) show that for time-independent boundary conditions the half-explicit formulation with a classic fourth-order Runge-Kutta method accurately integrates the two-fluid model equations in time while preserving all constraints. A third test case (ramp-up of gas production in a multiphase pipeline) shows that our new third-order method is preferred for cases featuring time-dependent boundary conditions.\nSanderse, B, & Veldman, A.E.P.

He was also deprived of free airtime, reading, television, and access to medication and food suitable for his health condition.\nThe former teacher had started a hunger strike and refused his medications since March 3, 2017 protesting harsh prison conditions.\nDavoudi had described the reason for his hunger strike as such: \u201cI am on hunger because I have been deprived of free air and sunlight since August.\u201d\nIn his latest message, Davoudi had said that his sight was becoming dim and he was deprived of the most basic rights. \u201cI\u2019m being held in a small cell that is known as \u2018solitary confinement no. 2.\u2019 I am deprived of visits, phone calls, communications with other prisoners, free airtime, walks, reading books, TV, medication, suitable food\u2026\u201d\nThe 64 year old prisoner was taken to this facility\u2019s quarantine ward on January 6, 2018 where inmates with murder and drug charges are held. During this period Arzhang Davoudi had been denied medical care despite suffering from from diabetes and cholesterol as well as heart diseases.\nThe 64 year old prisoner sent his last message three month ago and there has been no news of him so far.\nPolitical prisoners in Iran, including elderly inmates who have challenged the authorities or filed complaints are singled out for harsh treatment.\nDavoudi had stressed in a March message he had sent from Zahedan prison:\nHunger strike for a bit of air and sunlight\n34 days pass from my hunger strike. I merely want some air and some sunlight, of which I\u2019ve been inhumanly deprived since August. This shameless and lengthy suppression of my rights has worsened my heart condition and diabetes. It has caused my eyesight to become dim. In February, when I was returned to Zahedan prison, my physical conditions further deteriorated, because I\u2019m being held in a very small cell, known as \u2018solitary no.2\u2019 of the prison\u2019s quarantine section.\nI\u2019m deprived of visits, phone calls, communications with other prisoners, free airtime, walks, reading books, TV, medication, suitable food\u2026\nCertainly, the vicious practices of the regime\u2019s authorities vis-\u00e0-vis prisoners, especially those exiled from their hometowns, is far from the customs of the brave people of Sistan & Baluchistan Province [in southeast Iran]\u2026 [Iranian regime Supreme Leader] Ali Khamenei\u2026 knows very well that only officials of this religious theocracy ruling our country carry out such vicious practices. Therefore, the very harsh measures seen in the prisons of this province is not only imposed against political prisoners. This nature is literally seen in all forms of this regime\u2019s authorities who always resort to force.\n\u201cTherefore, I am expecting Mr. Zeid Ra\u2019ad al-Hossein, the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights and other human rights organizations, including Amnesty International, to dispatch observers to inspects these medieval era prisons.",

        "raw_content": "Like many of you, I\u2019ve been struggling with the anger and frustration with yet another mass shooting, more dead kids and teachers, and a nation in mourning.\nBut I\u2019ve sensed a different, stronger, more visceral response to this one, a response that gives me hope, albeit tinged with despair and anger.\nI\u2019ve always said that if Sandy Hook didn\u2019t change things, nothing would. But here\u2019s what\u2019s different now, here\u2019s what\u2019s amped up the outrage against the \u201cnorm.\u201d\nWe are now under an administration that foments hatred, that promotes racism, classism and many other -isms, and we fear for our lives, our children, our country. We no longer have a stable democracy or a rational leader to fall back on, nor any kind of hope that things will get better. We no longer can count on the goodness and humanity of those in power.\nDeep down, we know things won\u2019t, can\u2019t, get better with who, for a variety of awful reasons, is in the White House and in Congress. So, it\u2019s up to all of us \u2014 reasonable people who love this country (who are willing to let law-abiding gun owners keep their guns), who still see America as a land of opportunity, who don\u2019t harbor hate in our hearts \u2014 to stand up and do what\u2019s right.\nWe can\u2019t wait until Nov. 6, when we decide yet again who we\u2019re paying and entrusting to lead this country. (Have we forgotten that they work for us? Have they forgotten?)\nI\u2019m calling on those without power to fight for what is right. And I\u2019m calling on those in power to do what is right, without a thought to polls, optics, contributions and the next election.\nEach and every one of us looks in the mirror every morning. What do we see?\nOK, I was trespassing.\nI won\u2019t go into why or where, but I was on someone\u2019s property without legitimate reason.\nA neighbor appeared and asked what I was up to. He was fine with my explanation for being there, even though I was indeed trespassing.\nBut it seems the friendly fellow had a different attitude a few weeks earlier when he noticed \u201ca black guy\u201d on the property.\nThe neighbor, who introduced himself as Duane, said he was going to tell \u201cthe black guy\u201d to get lost. But then he learned the man was a real estate agent and had every right to be there.\nDuane was very friendly and chatty with me; somehow he got around to the fact that he works with \u201ca black guy\u201d who once asked Duane how he spells his name.\n\u201cThe white way,\u201d he said, recalling the exchange with a smile.\nIt was all in good fun, and Duane and I were just a couple of white guys talking over a fence in rural America.\nLater, I got the rest of the joke \u2014 there\u2019s a white way and a wrong way.\nThe thing about Duane is that, on the racist continuum, he\u2019s far from the worst. He didn\u2019t drop the \u2018N\u2019 word or make disparaging comments about African-Americans.\nBut subtle racism \u2014 the nods, winks and jokes \u2014 is no less insidious. It creeps into daily life, becomes part of the cultural fabric.\nI should know. That\u2019s how I grew up, in a lily-white neighborhood where racist jokes and comments were standard fare. My friends and I told our share, and I cringe at the memory.\nIt seemed harmless at the time, but not everyone wakes up and realizes how wrong and hurtful those words can be. Jokes and comments are contagious, and easily become attitudes and actions, often passed on to the next generation.\nThis is not news to people of color. They deal with racism and discrimination every hour of every day, everywhere they go.\nIt\u2019s a harsh reality that seems lost on those who choose to live \u201cthe white way.\u201d\nBack when \u2018merica was great, baseball teams \u201cbarnstormed\u201d across the U.S., delighting fans young and old. None of those squads, however, packed stadiums like Donald Trump\u2019s rag-tag Swampville 9. They lost a close one this week, 6-5 on a walk-off home run by Team USA slugger James Comey.\nTempers flared throughout, resulting in several ejections. USA starting pitcher Elizabeth Warren, who drilled Swampville leadoff batter Donald Trump Jr. with the first pitch of the game, was tossed in the 7th inning after Jared Kushner couldn\u2019t get out of the way of one of her patented fastballs up and in.\nCheck the schedule. The Swampville 9 might be coming to a yard near you.\n\u2018Forget Paris,\u2019 Trump said, before retreating to his dark place\nWe held an \u201cemergency rally\u201d in the sanctuary city of Syracuse, NY, today, less than two hours after the 45th president of the United States pulled the world\u2019s biggest polluter out of the Paris climate agreement.\nAs one speaker so succinctly put it, the candidate who claimed he wanted to put America first just put us last.\nAs unconscionable \u2014 and politically unwise \u2014 as this action was, we will survive it. He won\u2019t. The scowling, miserable tweeter-in-chief\u2019s latest exercise in disregarding facts, reality, decency, normality, etc. will only serve to do him in, politically.\nHe may realize this some day soon at 3 a.m., when we will likely see further evidence of his inner turmoil and intellectual deficiencies in 140 characters or less.\nFast forward to 2021: Mar-A-Lago is under water. A new American president is healing diplomatic rifts, putting rational policies into place, acting like an adult. And we can take a deep breath.\nPosted in climate change, environment, Politics, poverty\t| Tagged Climate Change, global warming, Paris Agreement, Trump\t| 6 Comments\nAttorney Bryan Stevenson\u2019s \u201cJust Mercy,\u201d which details his experiences representing inmates on death row.\nAt one point during Bryan Stevenson\u2019s lecture on injustice and mass incarceration in America, the young man in his 20s seated next to me in the crowded auditorium quietly wiped tears from his face, trying to be as inconspicuous as possible.\nI didn\u2019t care who saw me doing the same.\nStevenson, attorney and author of \u201cJust Mercy,\u201d the best-selling book about his work representing death-row inmates, appeared in Syracuse, NY, last week to close out the 22nd annual Rosamond Gifford Lecture Series sponsored by the Friends of the Onondaga County Library.\nAt the start, Stevenson noted that he wanted to talk about solutions, not problems.\nThis, from an African-American man who has done the difficult work of trying \u2014 and sometimes failing \u2014 to convince judges to not execute men who may not be responsible for the crimes they\u2019ve been imprisoned for, sometimes for decades. Stevenson has suffered indignities of his own, including getting strip-searched at a prison before he could meet with his client.\nYet, he remains positive and keeps on fighting for justice. In his talk, he outlined his four-point approach, solutions to at least some of the problems that abound in the justice system in America \u2014 the country with the highest rate of incarceration in the world.\nBe proximate. \u201cIncredible things happen when you\u2019re proximate to those who suffer,\u201d Stevenson said. In other words, don\u2019t avoid those who are living in poverty and amid violence. \u201cFear and anger are the essential ingredients of oppression,\u201d he said. Try to know people as individuals, and the context in which they live. \u201cThe opposite of poverty isn\u2019t wealth,\u201d Stevenson said. \u201cThe opposite of poverty is justice.\u201d\nChange the narratives. \u201cTo be free, we have to commit ourselves to truth and reconciliation,\u201d Stevenson said. So much of America follows false narratives about racism. A prevailing view of African-American history is a \u201cthree-day carnival,\u201d he said. Day One, Rosa Parks doesn\u2019t give up her seat on the bus. Day Two, the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. leads a march from Selma to Montgomery. Day Three, racism is abolished. Not so.\nWe need to continue to talk about injustice and racism, past and present. Discrimination. Beatings. Lynchings. Not too long ago, there were \u201cwhites only\u201d and \u201ccolored only\u201d hotels, restaurants, water fountains. To his parents, Stevenson said, \u201cThose weren\u2019t directions. Those were assaults.\u201d\nStay hopeful. \u201cHopelessness is the enemy of justice,\u201d Stevenson said. \u201cHope is what you need to have to be proximate.\u201d This is where his strip-search comes in. A prison guard who greeted Stevenson made it clear that he was the owner of the truck parked outside that bore 10 Confederate flags and racist stickers such as, \u201cIf I\u2019d known it was going to be like this, I\u2019d have picked my own damn cotton.\u201d Believe it or not, that anecdote takes a hopeful turn. Read \u201cJust Mercy\u201d to find out.\nBe willing to do uncomfortable things. Stevenson called this \u201cthe hard one,\u201d noting that change only happens \u201cwhen good people are willing to do uncomfortable things.\u201d Stevenson knows this very well, and it doesn\u2019t always succeed. He told of the time he had to call a mentally disabled client to tell him his appeal failed, and that he would be executed. The client sobbed and thanked Stevenson for trying.\nHere, Stevenson asked, \u201cWhy do we want to kill all the broken people?\u201d\nHe told of how he asked himself why he continues to do this incredibly difficult work. \u201cMy answer shocked me,\u201d Stevenson said. \u201cI realized I do what I do because I\u2019m broken, too.\u201d\nYes, if you devote yourself to this kind of work, Stevenson said, \u201cIt will break you. But it is in brokenness that we come to embrace others and feel connected.\u201d\nI urge you to visit Stevenson\u2019s Equal Justice Initiative website and to read \u201cJust Mercy.\u201d It will change the way you look at the justice system in our country. It may even inspire you to do uncomfortable things.\nThe People marched today, in cities everywhere, to bring attention to the reality of Climate Change and its ramifications for the planet.\nMeanwhile at the White House, or perhaps Mar-a-Lago, the Plunder King sleeps.\nBanner in Oaxaca City, Mexico, Jan. 20. Rough translation: Migrants are workers everywhere. No human being is illegal in the world. Stop the xenophobic policies of Donald Trump. Photo by Theresa Barry.\n\u201cShe was told that if she failed to pay again, they would first rape her once more and then kill her son.\u201d\nMy brother recently returned from a 10-day volunteer stint representing women and children who have crossed the border from Mexico to seek asylum in the United States. They are being held at a detention center in Dilley, Texas, euphemistically called a \u201cfamily residential center.\u201d\nMy brother is an attorney and represents these families in \u201ccredible fear\u201d interviews that ultimately lead to a judge\u2019s ruling that decides their fate.\nThere\u2019s more to the legal process than that, but I need to share the stories of three women my brother met this month. These women, and potentially their children, are at risk of deportation (to the \u201cNorthern Triangle\u201d of El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras), under the administration\u2019s ramped-up \u201csecurity\u201d plans.\nMr. President, do you want to send them back? Here is what awaits them.\nMy brother writes:\nOne Salvadoran woman who sold simple clothing items as a street vendor (a very common means of survival for many women) saw four of her fellow vendors, two women and two men, shot to death in a period of 7 weeks by the \u201cmareros\u201d (gang members) for failure to meet extortion demands. After the fourth killing, she decided that she could no longer protect her child and must flee, leaving behind her family, friends and everyone and everything that was part of her life.\nAnother woman, from Guatemala, who walked six minutes in the dark to the nearest bus stop at 5 a.m. every day to go to her job in a factory, was beaten and raped on two occasions (and extorted numerous times), by a marero whose partner held a gun to her head the entire time. She had been paying the gang\u2019s increasing extortion demands for several weeks until she no longer could afford to pay her rent and food for her 4-year old son. After the second rape, the marero told her that this was a lesson to her and also for her son (a beautiful, high-functioning little boy) when the gang\u2019s demands are not met. She was told that if she failed to pay again, they would first rape her once more and then kill her son.\nA third Salvadoran working woman refused to agree to MS\u2019s demand that she make her 8-year old son available to them to deliver drugs and to be groomed for membership in MS in a couple of years. They also demanded, on three separate occasions, that she pay extortion each week. After she had refused three times, on both counts, the mareros then came to her home, entered by force and told her this was her last chance. With her son cowering behind her, she again refused. The mareros then grabbed her and set her clothes on fire. Yes, the clothes she was wearing. She suffered serious burns on her left arm, shoulder and hand, but she had saved her son for the time being. They fled the country for the safety of the U.S. as soon as she was released from the hospital.\n\u201cThese are just a few of the many accounts we hear, week in and week out, from women who never asked to be extorted, raped, threatened and beaten,\u201d my brother wrote. \u201cThey were unfortunate enough to have been born and raised in these places, where the gangs are the de facto government, the police are corrupt or terrified of the gangs and the official government is helpless to protect its own citizens.\n\u201cViolence and fear are a part of their everyday lives. Gang members roam the hallways of schools looking for recruits (boys) and sex slaves (girls), starting at a very young age, with the administrators and teachers helpless to stop them. These are good people who need our help.\n\u201cPlease understand this is not a matter of politics. It\u2019s about humanity.\u201d\nThe Trump administration has ramped up its plans to round up and deport asylum seekers like these women, along with undocumented immigrants who have been in the U.S. less than two years. The feds are casting a wide net with the \u201cexpedited removal\u201d policy, and it is causing widespread fear among millions of law-abiding, tax-paying people.\nA plea: My brother \u2014 who has signed on for his fourth trip to Dilley this spring \u2014 is volunteering through the CARA Family Detention Pro Bono Project, a collection of attorneys and others who provide free legal representation.\nIf you\u2019re moved to help with these efforts, please use the link above to help the CARA Pro Bono Project and its four founding organizations \u2014 the Catholic Legal Immigration Network, American Immigration Council, RAICES (Refugee and Immigrant Center for Education and Legal Services) and AILA (American Immigration Lawyers Association).",

        "raw_content": "Irrfan Khan: Bollywood actor has rare tumour\nBollywood actor Irrfan Khan has revealed on Twitter that he has been diagnosed with a neuroendocrine tumour.\nThe rare illness affects the cells that release hormones into the bloodstream. Mr Khan did not give any further details of his condition.\nHe had tweeted on 6 March that he was suffering from a \"rare disease\" but did not say what it was.\nKhan, 51, has acted in more than 100 films including Bollywood hits Piku, Maqbool, Haasil and Paan Singh Tomar. His English language films include Life Of Pi, Jurassic World, Slumdog Millionaire and The Amazing Spider-Man.\nKhan is India's best-known international actor and has also featured in a wide range of well-received roles in Bollywood and independent Hindi films. In 2013, he won India's National Film Award for his leading role in Paan Singh Tomar, a biopic about a top athlete who becomes a bandit.\nHe has also won the Viewers' Choice Award at the Cannes Film Festival for his portrayal of a lonely accountant who mistakenly receives a lunchbox intended for a colleague in the 2013 film The Lunchbox.\nIt was also the only Indian film to be selected for competition at the London Film Festival that year.\nHemasiri Fernando's latest book \"Essays on Railways\" launched!\nThere are very few books in the literary world that offer you worthwhile reading about the history of Ceylon Railways. Fewer still; books written in English by Sri Lankan authors with hands on experience on this particular subject.\nAmong them, there are two books that comes to any railway expert\u2019s mind; \u2018The Viceroy Special\u2019 and \u2018The Uva Railway \u2013 Railway to the Moon\u2019. Both provide comprehensive insight into the golden age that marked the genesis of Ceylon Railways, written by renowned Sri Lankan Author Hemasiri Fernando who is also the current Chairman of People's Bank, Sri Lanka.\nThis article focuses not on those two paperbacks but ushers into the limelight his third installment (or the second sequel) in the highly successful book series that Hemasiri Fernando authored to pay homage to Ceylon Railways. The new book, freshly printed is aptly titled as:\n\u2018ESSAYS ON CEYLON RAILWAYS (1864 \u2013 1964)\u2019\nEnriched with hundreds of rare, high quality photographs taken in Ceylon during 60\u2019s and 70\u2019s by leading railway enthusiasts around the world, followed by ancient maps that are digitally reproduced in an expert manner to preserve their authenticity, ESSAYS ON CEYLON RAILWAYS is an awe-inspiring masterpiece that creates an ideal virtual world for any railway lover can only dream of.\nIt consists of twelve thrilling chapters that teleports the reader back to the time of post-colonial rule when British were in complete control of the entire island and had established the Ceylon Government Railway (CGR) to develop the transportation system of the new colony. In a comprehensive manner, the book also subtly explains the chain of events that led to the rise of rails in Ceylon with the importation of British Engines.\nAmong the beautifully written essays in the ESSAYS ON CEYLON RAILWAYS, an entire chapter is dedicated to \u2018Railway Signaling and Safety\u2019 in which the author throws light upon a range of little-known railway signaling systems used by the British \u2013 including banner repeater signals, shunting signals, ground signals and semaphore signals. The essay is also supplemented with detailed photographs to assist the reader to comprehend how these signals were used in real life.\nWith his characteristic thoughtfulness evident in all his previous work, Hemasiri Fernando has not failed in including a separate chapter to pay tribute to each and every one of the Director Generals and General Managers who managed the administrative affairs in Ceylon Government Railways during the span of hundred years from 1864 to 1964.\nLast Chapter is the most breathtaking one, where the author guides the reader around the unforgettable landmarks in railway history captured by best cameras at the time whilst providing computer generated aerial views that explain the layout of those once thriving railway workshop and stations.\nAppropriately aligned to his flow of words, the author adorns his literary content with spectacular snapshots of the relevant sites in a manner that captivates the hearts of any railway nerd.\nAfter Dr. David Hyatt, who is believed to have embarked on the most comprehensive research on CEYLON RAILWAYS, Hemasiri Fernando, as an author, has made \u2013 arguably - the best literary contribution to the Sri Lankan railway industry by launching the ESSAYS ON CEYLON RAILWAYS, his third book dedicated to the Ceylon Railway.\nReview by : CHINTHAKA NANAYAKKARA\nThe 20 highest paid actors in the world\nAccording to Forbes, between June 1, 2016 and June 1, 2017, the world's 10 highest-paid actresses made a combined $172.5 million. The 10 highest-paid actors earned more than double that amount: $488.5 million.\nMark Wahlberg topped the men's ranking after earning $68 million over the 12-month period. The highest-paid actress, Emma Stone, earned less than half that amount: $26 million.\n\"Compared to men, in most professions, women make 80 cents to the dollar,\" Oscar-winning actress Natalie Portman tells Marie Claire. \"In Hollywood we are making 30 cents to the dollar.\"\nAlthough some defenders of the system point out that the disparity could be chalked up to the fact that more men star in profitable action and superhero franchises, women often make less even in romantic comedies. Portman, for example, says she was paid three times less than her male co-star Ashton Kutcher for the 2011 movie \"No Strings Attached.\"\n\"I mean, we get paid a lot, so it's hard to complain,\" the star continues, \"but the disparity is crazy.\"\nIf you were to combine the two rankings, the 20 highest-paid actors in the world would include two Ryans, two Toms and just three women (two of whom, as it happens, are named Jennifer). Stone, Hollywood's highest-paid woman, would barely crack the top 15.\nHere's the breakdown. All figures are pre-tax:\n20. Jeremy Renner: $19 million\n19. Matt Damon: $21 million\n18. Ryan Reynolds: $21.5 million\n17. Jennifer Lawrence: $24 million\n16. Jennifer Aniston: $25.5 million\n15. Emma Stone: $26 million\n14. Ryan Gosling: $29 million\n13. Samuel L. Jackson: $30.5 million\n12. Tom Hanks: $31 million\n11. Chris Hemsworth: $31.5 million\n10. Akshay Kumar: $35.5 million\n9. Salman Khan: $37 million\n8. Shah Rukh Khan: $38 million\n7. Tom Cruise: $43 million\n6. Robert Downey Jr.: $48 million\n5. Jackie Chan: $49 million\n4. Adam Sandler: $50.5 million\n3. Vin Diesel: $54.5 million\n2. Dwayne Johnson: $65 million\n1. Mark Wahlberg: $68 million\nHere's the full breakdown of the 10 highest-paid actresses:\n10. Amy Adams: $11.5 million\n8. Julia Roberts: $12 million (TIE)\n8. Cate Blanchett: $12 million (TIE)\n6. Charlize Theron: $14 million (TIE)\n6. Emma Watson: $14 million (TIE)\n5. Mila Kunis: $15.5 million\n4. Melissa McCarthy: $18 million\n3. Jennifer Lawrence: $24 million\n2. Jennifer Aniston: $25.5 million\n1. Emma Stone: $26 million\nHollywood couple Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux are separating after two years of marriage. The pair, who reportedly met on the set of comedy film Wanderlust, said the mutual decision was \"lovingly made\" at the end of last year.\nThey gave no reason for the split and said they intended to continue their \"cherished friendship\". Aniston, 49, and Theroux, 46, were married in a secret ceremony in Los Angeles in August 2015. They had been together for four years before the wedding, which took place at their Bel Air mansion.\nIn a joint statement, the couple said they intended to remain friends. \"We are two best friends who have decided to part ways as a couple, but look forward to continuing our cherished friendship,\" they said. \"Normally we would do this privately, but given that the gossip industry cannot resist an opportunity to speculate and invent, we wanted to convey the truth directly.\"\n\"Above all, we are determined to maintain the deep respect and love that we have for one another,\" the statement added.\nAniston starred in the hit TV series Friends and has appeared in numerous films such as Marley & Me and Horrible Bosses. This was her second marriage. She was married to fellow actor Brad Pitt for five years, but they divorced in 2005.\nJustin Theroux, a cousin of British documentary maker Louis Theroux, is an American actor, writer and director. He has collaborated with Ben Stiller on the script for Zoolander 2, and starred in the television series The Leftovers.\nVeteran Sri Lankan actress Edna Sugathapala passes away\nVeteran Film, Theatre and Teledrama actress Edna Sugathapala has passed away at the age of 72. She is said to have passed away while receiving treatment at a private hospital in Colombo.\nEdna was born in 1946 and educated at Good Shepherd Convent in her hometown Panadura, and later at Holy Family Convent, Bambalapitiya. She began her film career by acting in popular film \u2018Surayangeth Suraya\u2019 directed by legendary director Lenin Moraes in 1969 alongside Gamini Fonseka and Sandya Kumari. She was also a talented singer, pianist and astrologist.\nUma Thurman breaks silence on Weinstein attack\nActress Uma Thurman has detailed long hinted-at allegations against film producer Harvey Weinstein. In a New York Times article, she says Weinstein pushed her down and \"tried to expose himself\" at the producer's hotel room in London during the 1990s, before she managed to \"wriggle away\".\nHarvey Weinstein's spokeswoman said the claims about an assault \"are untrue\".\nThe 47-year-old star also said she was raped as a teenager by an unnamed actor who was 20 years her senior. Thurman had expressed anger at Weinstein last November, saying: \"I'm glad it's going slowly - you don't deserve a bullet.\" She did not make specific allegations against Weinstein at the time. But she details her claims in a 3,000-word feature published in the New York Times on Saturday, entitled: \"This is why Uma Thurman is angry\".\nWhat does Uma Thurman say?\nAmong the revelations in the article are that Thurman was sexually assaulted at age 16, at the beginning of her career.\nShe met an actor - who is not named - at a Manhattan nightclub, and was \"coerced\" when she returned to his home for a late-night drink.\n\"I was ultimately compliant,\" she told the newspaper. \"I tried to say no, I cried, I did everything I could do. He told me the door was locked but I never ran over and tried the knob.\" \"When I got home, I remember I stood in front of the mirror and I looked at my hands and I was so mad at them for not being bloody or bruised.\"\nHer allegations regarding Weinstein took place in the time period after the success of the 1994 Quentin Tarantino film Pulp Fiction, which was produced by Weinstein. The alleged incident took place at his suite in London's Savoy Hotel.\n\"He pushed me down. He tried to shove himself on me... He did all kinds of unpleasant things,\" Thurman told the Times.\n\"But he didn't actually put his back into it and force me. You're like an animal wriggling away, like a lizard.\" She said a bunch of flowers arrived the next day with a note reading: \"You have great instincts.\" And that in the aftermath, Weinstein's assistants kept calling about new film projects.\nWhat was Harvey Weinstein's response?\nA spokeswoman for Harvey Weinstein - who is in rehab - issued a statement in the wake of the story's publication.\nIt said his team had contacted the New York Times and sent photographs \"that demonstrate the strong relationship Mr Weinstein and Ms Thurman had\".\nThe newspaper acknowledged receiving \"chummy photos\" of the pair at premieres and parties.\n\"Mr Weinstein acknowledges making an awkward pass 25 years ago at Ms Thurman in England after misreading her signals, after a flirtatious exchange in Paris, for which he immediately apologised and deeply regrets,\" the statement said.\n\"However, her claims about being physically assaulted are untrue.\"\n\"There was no physical contact during Mr Weinstein's awkward pass and [he] is saddened and puzzled as to why Ms Thurman... waited 25 years to make these allegations public\".\nI\u2019ve always dreamt of being an entertainer: Jacqueline Fernandez\nBollywood actress Jacqueline Fernandez, says she always wanted to be an entertainer but didn\u2019t plan to get into Bollywood. In a blog post which went live on International Women\u2019s Day on Thursday, Jacqueline penned her journey into stardom and Bollywood.\n\u201cSince a very young age, I\u2019ve always dreamt of being an entertainer. Wanting to tell stories, make everyone around me laugh. For me, it was never about the films but the pure joy that comes with being an entertainer. That dream, that joy is something that had me drawn towards it,\u201d Jacqueline said.\n\u201cEntering Bollywood pretty much happened by chance. In Bollywood, it\u2019s not just about entertaining, but also an artistic form of expression through dance, acting and dialogue that has the potential to stir thousands of emotions. Your audience relates to you. Lives the character through you. All the strength to live up to my dream of being an entertainer has come from constantly growing as a performer and to focus on my strengths. It might sound a little too good to be true as you read, but believe me, once you start living by it, you\u2019ll feel the difference yourself,\u201d she added.\nBorn to a Sri Lankan father and Malaysian mother, Jacqueline was raised in Bahrain. At the age of 14, she was hosting a fitness show. She moved to Australia to attend college and then returned to Sri Lanka where she took up a reporting job.\nThe year 2006 turned to be a game-changer as she won the Miss Sri Lanka beauty crown. She made her debut in the Indian film industry with the 2009 film Aladin. \u201cI grew up in a very simple Sri Lankan family, raised in the UAE. I first decided I wanted to be a performer at the age of 6, and honestly, was quite afraid to bring this up with my parents at first. I was apprehensive of what they\u2019d say since it was quite an unconventional career path but I guess I happened to get really lucky,\u201d she said.\nThe actor says her parents have been her biggest source of support even when her debut Bollywood film didn\u2019t click at the box office. \u201cIn all my trying times, during the initial stages when I was unfamiliar with this vibrant city, that I now call home, or during my first stint in acting; I\u2019ve always believed in my abilities and that really has made all the difference. It still astonishes me, how such a small change is able to get you through an entire trial and error phase and, put you right in front of your goals, however lofty they may be,\u201d she added.\nMasterChef Australia judge wins appeal against conviction\nAustralian celebrity chef George Calombaris has been successful in overturning his conviction for assaulting a football match spectatoar.\nGeorge Calombaris, a MasterChef Australia judge, had pleaded guilty to punching the man at the A-League grand final in Sydney last year.\nHe was fined A$ 1000 and received a conviction in October.\nA judge quashed the conviction on appeal, instead imposing a 12-month good behaviour bond on Mr Calombaris. In explaining his decision on Wednesday, Judge Andrew Scotting said Mr Calombaris had an \"exceptional character\" and his punch had not been forceful.\nThe chef had already suffered financial and personal losses over the incident, including a A$300,000 sponsorship role, the judge said.\n\"To my mind, he is largely rehabilitated already in respect of this particular incident,\" Judge Scotting said, according to the Sydney Morning Herald. Last year, Calombaris made a public apology over a separate incident involving the underpaying of staff at his restaurant company.\n'Black Panther' roars past $700 million worldwide in week two\nThe Disney (DIS) and Marvel Studios film was the number one film in the U.S. for the second weekend in a row bringing in an estimated $108 million at the box office.\n\"Black Panther\" becomes only the fourth film ever to cross $100 million in its second weekend, joining \"Star Wars: The Force Awakens,\" \"Jurassic World,\" and \"The Avengers.\" It is the second highest second weekend for a film behind only \"Force Awakens.\"\n\"Black Panther\" has also crossed the $700 million mark globally in just two weekends of release and will cross $400 million domestically on Sunday, its 10th day of release. The film has yet to open in China or Japan.\nAfter its second weekend domestically, the film, starring Chadwick Boseman and directed by Ryan Coogler, is already the fifth highest grossing Marvel Studios film and will likely pass \"Captain America: Civil War\" and \"Iron Man 3\" to take the number three spot in the coming days.\nOverall, \"Black Panther\" showed strong staying power losing only 47% of its domestic audience from its record-breaking opening weekend. That's less of a drop than other films in Marvel's Cinematic Universe like \"Captain America: Civil War\" and \"The Avengers: Age of Ultron,\" which saw its second-weekend totals drop closer to 60%, according to comScore.\nLast weekend, the film, which is Marvel's first to be directed by an African-American director, opened to $201.8 million in North America, breaking multiple records. It became the largest opening for an African-American director by a sizable margin.\nThe record opening and a strong second weekend stand as a watershed moment for Hollywood. With \"Black Panther\" shattering expectations and records, the film's success could impact change in Hollywood by encouraging more diverse casts, crews, and stories.\nThe film currently holds a near perfect 97% score on review site Rotten Tomatoes, which makes it one of the best-reviewed superhero films ever.\nUS actor Mark Salling, known for his role in the TV series Glee, has been found dead near his Los Angeles home. US media reports suggest he may have taken his own life.\nSalling played footballer Noah \"Puck\" Puckerman on Glee from 2009 to 2015. He entered into a plea deal last October, avoiding a lengthier prison sentence of up to 20 years.\nHe was arrested in 2015 after a tip-off that he was in possession of images of children being sexually abused. Investigators ultimately found tens of thousands of abuse images on his laptop and hard drive.\nPhotographs in US media suggest the former television star's body was found in woodland near to where he lived in Sunland, Los Angeles.\nAcclaimed jazz artist Wycliffe Gordon to perform in Sri Lanka\nRenowned musician, composer, conductor, and arranger Wycliffe Gordon and his International All Stars will tour Sri Lanka from the 24-28 of February with performances scheduled to be held in Colombo, Matara and Galle.\nGordon and his crew will perform as part of the cultural events planned under the #USSL70 campaign of the US Embassy to celebrate 70 years of diplomatic relations between Sri Lanka and the United States.\nMars provided the night's big upset, taking the album of the year trophy that most critics assumed would go to Lamar's rap tour de force, Damn.\nIn the end, voters found Mars's crowd-pleasing R&B more palatable, while Lamar dominated the rap categories.\nAlessia Cara won best new artist - making her the only female artist to win a major prize.\nMars left with six trophies in all, including the three biggest prizes: Album of the year, song of the year and record of the year.\nSpeaking onstage, he paid tribute to his fellow nominees, saying: \"You guys are the reason why I'm in the studio pulling my hair out\".\nHe also told the story of how, as a 15-year-old in Hawaii, he performed in a show called The Magic of Polynesia, singing songs by R&B writers Babyface, Jam & Lewis and Terry Riley.\n\"I'll be honest, I was incredible at 15,\" he laughed, before explaining how he'd wanted to recapture the sounds of those 80s and 90s hits on his latest album.\n\"Those songs were written with nothing but joy... and that's all I wanted to bring with this album. Hopefully I could feel that again and see everybody dancing and everybody moving.\"\nAs well as the star's own prizes, his recording engineers won a further award for their work on the album.\nAlbum of the year: Bruno Mars - 24K Magic\nRecord of the year: Bruno Mars - 24K Magic\nSong of the year: Bruno Mars - That's What I Like\nBest pop album: Ed Sheeran - \u00f7 (Divide)\nBest rock album: The War On Drugs - A Deeper Understanding\nBest R&B album: Bruno Mars - 24k Magic\nBest rap album: Kendrick Lamar - Damn",

She\u2019s a dedicated student who appreciates the opportunity of higher education and who realizes the sacrifices that her family has made to make it possible.\nPhoto: Elba Arias\n\u201cThis prize meant to me giving back to my dad that works so hard to pay for my education,\u201d Arias said. \u201cI am very grateful to Kean Xpedition for doing this contest because if it was not for this contest my father would have to worry like every year to pay for it. Even though it is just for a semester it is a blessing.\u201d Not only did Arias get free tuition for a semester, but she also received at $300 gift certificate to Barnes and Noble, which could be used to purchase college textbooks, a MacBook Pro computer and a reserved parking spot for the whole of Spring 2016. Kean spokeswoman Margaret McCorry said that the \u201cSemester on Us\u201d giveaway is a waiver of payment and is therefore not funded. The Barnes and Noble gift certificate and the MacBook Pro are funded through University Relations, which has a marketing budget for promotional items. All Arias needed to win was her name and her Kean I.D. Before the game, in which the Cougars hosted Salisbury University, her friends urged her to enter the contest. Little did she know that she would leave with so much. Arias was overwhelmed with gratitude about the gifts and can\u2019t believe she was the one to win them. The theme for homecoming this year was \u201cCarnival Rio,\u201d and it was definitely a celebration for her. \u201cIt is an honor and I feel proud to have this amazing opportunity,\u201d she said.\nBurnt popcorn, among other things, causing evacuations for students By Rose Marie Kitchen One would never guess that something as small as steam from showers or burnt popcorn would set the fire alarms off, causing a whole resident hall to evacuate and have the Township of Union Fire Department respond immediately; but it does and there is a reason why. An on-going trend of fire alarm activations, mainly in the resident halls, has been repeatedly reported in the Kean University\u2019s Police Department (KUPD) police blotter. Residents know that if the smell of burnt popcorn is in the air, the fire department will most likely be outside shortly. \u201cThe number of fire alarm activations on campus this semester have been slightly above the past two years, but not to a significant degree,\u201d said Len Dolan, Kean University Director of Fire Safety, \u201cThere have been 51 fire alarm activations on campus so far this year, compared to 49 for the same time period last\nyear, and 48 in 2013.\u201d The KUPD ran the number of fire alarm activations for the last three months in the resident halls. In 2015, there were reportedly 42 fire alarm activations, 2014, 44 fire alarm activations, and in 2013, 39 fire alarm activations. Those numbers were from the date range of Sept. 1 to Nov. 4. The Township of Union Fire Department was contacted for confirmation on the above numbers and for further comment on the situation, however they did not respond in time for publication. All residence halls in the state of New Jersey are required to be protected with a fire sprinkler system, smoke alarms and a way to manually activate the fire alarms. All Kean University resident halls meet those requirements. \u201cI feel relatively safe that the fire alarms can detect any potential harmful fires,\u201d said Kyle Rios, junior therapeutic recreation pre-occupational therapy major; who lives in Bartlett Hall. The \u201cResident Hall Fire Alarm Prevention Guide,\u201d continued on page 3\nThe New Jersey State Comptroller\u2019s Office confirmed on Nov. 9 that it is examining the fees that students pay at Kean and two other colleges. The College of New Jersey and William Paterson University are also included in the audit, which will look into how the schools use students\u2019 fees, said Comptroller spokesman Pete McAleer. McAleer stated that the audit would inspect if the schools are \u201cdoing a good job informing students of where the fees go\u201d and if the money from those fees is allocated accordingly. A full-time, in-state Kean student pays $2,007 in fees per semester in addition to $3,782 in tuition, according to institutional research from the university. Kean University spokeswoman Margaret McCorry emphasized that Kean\u2019s financial management is a strength, as was recently confirmed by Moody\u2019s and Standard & Poor\u2019s rating services. \u201cKean University is audited independently on an annual basis and is regularly found compliant with all Government Accounting Standards Board (GASB) requirements,\u201d she wrote in an email. \u201cThe University works cooperatively and transparently with all governmental agencies regarding financial oversight.\u201d The Comptroller\u2019s office, which has the authority to audit nearly every government agency in New Jersey, was created in 2008. This is the first time Kean has been audited by the agency, McAleer said. In 2011, Rutgers\u2019 athletic department was examined. Money is top of mind for Kean\u2019s full-time faculty union after tuition and fees increased by 3 percent this year and the administration is considering layoffs due to a budget shortfall. In June, the Board of Trustees voted to increase tuition and fees while Kean University President Dr. Dawood Farahi reported that potential layoffs \u2013 or a \u201creorganization\u201d \u2013 to the library, Center for Academic Success and Equal Opportunity Center could take place due to a $3.7 million shortfall in the budget. After Kean\u2019s full-time faculty union protested the potential layoffs at a Sept. 14 Trustees\u2019 meeting, State Assemblywoman Mila Jasey (Dist. 27), who is also Chair of NJ\u2019s Higher Education Committee, expressed her own concerns in letters to university officials. Jasey (D) met with university officials on Oct. 28 after penning two letters to the trustees and Farahi on Sept. 14 and Oct.8, the first of which she says was ignored. Her second letter said she had confirmed with the Comptroller\u2019s Office \u201cthat an inquiry into Kean\u2019s finances is currently being conducted.\u201d \u201cBy even threatening layoffs, you evidenced a patent disregard for essential staff and the students whom they so ably serve under the guise of cost savings,\u201d she wrote on Oct. 8. \u201cShould this move forward, Kean students will find themselves paying more to receive less.\u201d Mary Theroux, chief of staff to the assemblywoman, said Jasey was \u201cappreciative\u201d of the Oct. 28 meeting with Farahi, four administrators, and Trustees Chair Ada Morell, Vice Chair Michael D\u2019Agostino and Secretary Dr. Lamont Repollet. \u201cWe left on a positive and hopeful note,\u201d said Theroux, who was in attendance at the meeting in Kean Hall. PowerPoint presentations were shown regarding the reorganization of the library, she said. Theroux explained that the meeting \u201creaffirmed that there wouldn\u2019t be layoffs per se, but that the professional staff would have the opportunity to be retrained, but there was not a great deal of specifics as to how.\u201d \u201cWe did not get the sense that it [the layoffs] was imminent,\u201d she added. Kean\u2019s spokeswoman stated that university officials found the meeting to be \u201cproductive.\u201d \u201cTo minimize the impact of the reorganization,\u201d McCorry wrote in an email, \u201cthe University will offer retraining and educational opportunities to any University employee affected by the changes.\u201d McCorry also stated that Kean seeks to reorganize the affected departments while still improving graduation rates, which internal data from 2012 marks at about 18 percent for students who graduate in four years. \u201cA thoughtful, strategic process is underway to reorganize these services in order to improve student retention and graduation rates, which are important issues for Kean as well as for colleges and universities throughout the nation.\u201d\nDoctor of Physical Therapy preparing to launch at Kean By Gabrielle Gale Prendatt-Carter\ntherapists to have a clinical doctorate degree.\u201d Rochelle Hendricks, New Jersey Secretary of Higher Education, gave final approval to the DPT program on November 2, 2015. Following this decision, an application for candidacy will be submitted to the Commission on Accreditation in Physical Therapist Education. In order to best prepare students for the field of physical therapy, the DPT program\u2019s curriculum will consist of both a classroom setting and hands on experience. Due to a dire need for physical therapists in the state of New Jersey, Kean University will provide\nKean University will launch its new Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT) at the Nathan Weiss Graduate College in June 2016. The DPT program is Kean University\u2019s fourth doctoral program and the first to consider entry-level qualified candidates. In addition to this, applicants will also be considered if they have earned a bachelor\u2019s degree. According to Shannon Nicole Clifford, Ph.D., executive director of Kean\u2019s new School of Physical Therapy, \u201cnew industry standards require physical\nthe resources needed to produce physical therapy professionals. \u201cNew practitioners are needed to care for aging baby boomers as well as in the growing field of pediatric physical therapy,\u201d said Clifford. Prospective students for the DPT program will begin enrollment during Summer Session I in 2016 in Kean\u2019s new state-of-the-art academic and research building on North Avenue. \u201cIn New Jersey, too many students interested in careers in physical therapy are traveling out of state for their education,\u201d said Kean University President Dawood\nShannon Nicole Clifford, Ph.D.\nPhotos: Kean University\nFarahi. \u201cThese students can now remain in state and receive a world-class education at Kean University.\u201d\nPaid sick leave approved in Elizabeth\nBy Nicole Brown Sinthia Soca , a Kean University senior, remembers when her mother ,who lives and works in Elizabeth, was very ill and had to make a crucial decision --- go to work sick or possibly lose her maintenance job. Soca has since watched her mother rush every day, after a long day at work, to walk the sidewalks of Elizabeth and\nTwo Years to\npaid sick leave each year. Christie Ramirez, a Pre-Occupational Therapy major said she is thankful that the law was passed, but she is saddened that paid sick days are limited. \u201cMy mother takes care of my grandmother who has cancer. She needs multiple sick days depending on how severe her illness is on a daily basis,\u201d said Ramirez. \u201cYou just can\u2019t tell your employees how many days they can get sick.\u201d The new law is expected to go into effect next year. The National Partnership for women and families says paid sick leave is beneficial to both the employers and the employees. \u201cAccess to paid sick days reduces the spread of the flu in the workplace by nearly six percent,\u201d according to the group\u2019s website. \u201cPaid sick days save employers money by reducing turnover.\u201d Although paid sick leave continues\nto spark national debate, the United States still does not have a law that guarantees every worker the right to paid sick leave. California, Connecticut and Massachusetts are the only states within the United States that provide statewide paid sick leave to a majority of its workers. In early September, President Barack Obama signed an executive order that required all part-time and full-time employees who are employed by Federal Contractors to be given paid sick leave. At Kean\u2019s Union campus, which borders Elizabeth, it is unclear whether contract workers get sick leave. GCA Services Group, which has the contract for maintenance workers, and Compass, which acquired the contract for food service from Gourmet Dining, did not return requests for comment about paid sick leave policies. However, some food servers interviewed said they do get paid sick leave.\nKean University Department of Public Safety Police blotter 10/4/15 Campus Police arrested an 18-year-old East Orange man for possession of a controlled dangerous substance (CDS) at approximately 11:15 p.m. at the Downs Hall garden.

Now, Soca is grateful to the activists, labor leaders and residents of Elizabeth who overwhelmingly supported the initiative for paid sick leave. \u201cI am so happy. My mother was passionate about promoting the change,\u201d said Soca. \u201cPaid sick leave is helpful and it is needed.\u201d The paid sick-leave initiative that was approved on November 3 applies to all businesses, regardless of size. According to Elizabeth\u2019s paid sick leave ordinance, employees accrue one hour of paid sick leave for every 30-hours worked. Paid sick leave for those who provide food services, home health care, child care or who are employed at businesses with 10 or more employees are capped at a rate of 40-hours per year.

We all know how nervous you can feel about making friends and how you can be afraid to feel alone. Your surroundings are new and unfamiliar, the work load is different than what you\u2019re used to, and it\u2019s just a new experience in general. Now take yourself back to those feelings and add in the unease of just coming back from war or just getting out of the military. You\u2019re no longer accustomed to civilian life, all you\u2019ve known for the past few years is the military and the people who served with you. You may have lost someone close to you or you may be suffering from Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Take all of those feelings and place yourself on a college campus with thousands of people, many of which who are unlike you and do not understand what you\u2019ve been through or what you are currently going through. It\u2019s a tough situation to be in and it\u2019s what many veterans face when they come to college. For many, a college campus can feel overly crowed and it can also be hard to find other service members to talk to and hang out with. The truth is, a lot of them feel lost. \u201cA lot of soldiers, they\u2019re so use to being\nin the military for so long that when they transition out to the civilian side they don\u2019t have any guidance,\u201d said president of the Veterans Club Dionicio Estrella, an Army Sargent who is a senior here at Kean. Estrella served in the army from 2010 to 2014. He spent 15 months in Afghanistan from 2011 to 2012 and came here to Kean in January of 2014. \u201cThe hardest part of transitioning was getting used to being a civilian again,\u201d said Estrella. \u201cThe military is so demanding that I almost felt abnormal being normal. A year before getting out, I was like so anticipating coming to school that I was actually talking to the military advisor for Kean for like a year. So when I came to Kean it was almost like a long distance relationship because we knew each other from talking over the phone for so long.\u201d As helpful as Kean is to the veterans, senior Clara Garcia who currently serves in the Navy and is the former president of the veterans club, wanted them to be even more helpful by opening a United Service Organization (USO) center on campus. USO centers try to provide a home away from home for service members. They are typically located on military bases, airports, and other public places. They usually have couches, snacks, computers, TV\u2019s and some even have beds and phones they can use to\nopinion Untapped potential: Unused power of a potentially impactful generation By Nia Questel When Nickelodeon (Nick), a television network designed for children and teens, thought that the millenials were enrolled in college, more \u201cgrown up,\u201d and no longer interested in cartoons, they shifted from the famous and loved 90s cartoons to the more modern cartoons. This was to fit the need of the younger \u201800s babies who knew nothing about famous 90s shows, Rugrats and Hey Arnold. What Nick did not know was that the millenials were \u201cgrowing up\u201d at a slower rate than the previous generations and were still watching cartoons like Spongebob Squarepants in the comfort of their parents\u2019 homes. When the millenials started social media movements to \u201cBring Back the 90s\u201d cartoons, Nick surprisingly responded by adding the 90s cartoons back to its television network rosters to please the millenials. This seemingly simple event points to a fascinating observation about millenials: when passionate enough about a cause, we have the power to influence out of reach systems to shift in our favor. Millenials overwhelmingly made the decision to combat a system and got it to fit their needs. Even some recent historical movements triggered by our generation to promote change exhibit our resourcefulness to make bold statements. Some of these events are Occupy Wall St., the Arab Youth Uprising in the Middle East, the Presidential Election of 2008, and the #blacklivesmatter movement. These movements illustrate that this generation has the capacity to affect change using social media and unity as our weapon. So why aren\u2019t we changing the world? Our generation can be likened to the cool, smart kid in class that has the power to influence popular opinion to create a positive change but is too distracted by the good-looking classmate next to them, their smart phone, and their \u201cworld\u201d to care to provoke change. We have become the cool kid, the Fonz, the Helga Pataki from Hey Arnold who has the power to bully, persuade, or sway a great majority of her peers but could care less about creating a more positive environment. We have become like Hey Arnold\u2019s Rhonda who only cared about popularity, status, and popular opinion. A PEW Research Center poll of registered voters conducted in 2012 shows that 75 percent of young people from the ages of 18 to 29 years old were highly engaged in the Presidential Election of 2008 but in 2012 the percentage dropped to 61\nA PEW Research Center poll of registered voters conducted in 2012 shows that 75 percent of young people from the ages of 18 to 29 years old were highly engaged in the Presidential Election of 2008 but in 2012 the percentage dropped to 61 percent.\npercent. This raises the question: Why are we not engaged in politics and current world events that are shaping our world? Is the only reality that we are interested in that of reality television? We have the power to sway corporate decisions but there is a soaring amount of mistrust in political and authority figures. A PEW Research Center report released in March 2014, \u201cMillenials in Adulthood\u201d cites \u201cdetached from institutions, networked with friends\u201d and shows numbers that point to an overwhelming lack of trust amongst millenials towards traditional institutions like the government. \u201cThey don\u2019t think they can make a difference,\u201d said Marie Richelieu, a Psychology major at Kean. \u201cSo they don\u2019t care.\u201d Social media has made it more convenient to access news on the go leaving less room for excuses as to why the millenials are not aware of what is going on around them. \u201cThey are very aware,\u201d said Sheedy Milord, a History major at Kean. \u201cBut they [peers] don\u2019t care unless it\u2019s affecting their education, themselves, or family.\u201d Current world events are shaping our world as we know it every day and we need to be involved in the decision making processes that will affect our future. We must stay informed and stay active. If not, then we are blindly giving away our power to affect change and create a better world. We clearly have the potential to change the world but, when will we tap into the gold mines of power that we possess?\ncall home. Although the one at Kean will not have all of those things, the safe haven type of feel they usually give will still be there. \u201cI came home in November 2013 and in January 2014 I started school here,\u201d said Garcia. \u201cI didn\u2019t have a place. I didn\u2019t know anybody that knew where I had been or where I\u2019ve gone you know or the special needs that I needed to be here. So having that room you can go in there and meet somebody that actually understands and have some support.\u201d \u201cThis is something I started and it\u2019s going to be an ongoing process,\u201d said Garcia. \u201cWe need different resources for military members especially for military members that have PTSD.\u201d According to the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, PTSD can occur after someone goes through a traumatic event like combat, assault, or disaster. Most people have some stress reactions after a trauma. If the reactions don\u2019t go away over time or disrupt your life, you may have PTSD. Dealing with PTSD can be difficult. It can cause extreme feelings of unease and discomfort, especially in noisy surroundings. You tend to feel uncomfortable around people you don\u2019t know, you can feel on alert most of the time, and ready to react as if something is about to happen. A USO center on campus can create a safe place on campus\nPhoto: Military and Veterans Club of Kean University\nfor military members to go to. It\u2019s quiet and secluded from the general population of the campus. The USO center on campus will be in Willis Hall and will feature a plaque on the wall called \u201cThe Wall of Warriors\u201d and will consist of the names of fallen service members who have attended Kean. The plaque will be built by the student run Kean chapter of the Industrial Design Society of America. The room is currently under construction as of now and has no set completion date yet. \u201cWe\u2019re not just supporting each other with homework and stuff, there are also personal issues and we wanted to show that we have comradery,\u201d said Estrella. \u201cYou\u2019re going to be surrounding yourself in an environment where you have a whole lot of people that can understand you and what you\u2019ve been through. I feel like it\u2019ll be more of a comforting feeling knowing you have that support from your peers.\u201d\nKean\u2019s \u2018general fund\u2019 pays $75K settlement to former employee By Rebecca Panico A recent $75,000 settlement reached with a former Kean employee in September was paid using the university\u2019s \u201cgeneral fund,\u201d a school spokeswoman said. Sherrell S. Holderman, 66, alleged that after 30 years of employment, she was \u201ccoerced\u201d into retirement in 2011 because of her race, age and gender, her federal court documents from 2012 show. Holderman worked as director of the PASSPORT program, which helps admit freshman applicants who don\u2019t meet admission requirements but have potential to succeed and contribute to the university. Eleven other professional staff were laid off along with Holderman in 2011, none of who were white males. In total, seven employees \u2013 including Holderman \u2013 were black, two were Hispanic and nine were older than 40, her court documents state. In settling, the university admits no wrongdoing. Holderman\u2019s attorneys nor Margaret McCorry, Kean University\u2019s spokeswoman, declined to comment on the outcome. McCorry elaborated on who doles out the dough when it comes to Kean\u2019s legal matters though. McCorry explained that only tort lawsuits, or civil accident cases, are covered by the State Tort Claims Fund, while cases involving employment are paid using Kean\u2019s general fund. \u201cIf it is a tort claims matter such as an accident,\u201d McCorry said in an email, \u201cit is paid out of the State Tort Claims Fund, a state fund specially created by the legislature to pay tort claims. If it is an employment case, it is paid by the University out of the University\u2019s general fund.\u201d She later added in another email: \u201cThe general fund is an account of revenue generated by University operations (such as rentals, etc.), the State appropriation, tuitions, and fees.\u201d In July, university officials increased tuition and fees by 3 percent, following suit with some nearby public universities. Yearly tuition and fees at Kean for an in-state, full-time student who commutes now amounts to $11,580, up $337 from last year. The PASSPORT program was once handled by the Center for Academic Success (CAS) and is now under the auspices of the Educational Opportunities Center (EOC). Today, both departments face potential layoffs.\nstates, \u201cThe technology and the code requirements for the location and placement of smoke alarms is based on the code requirements in effect at the time the building was constructed or when the systems were updated.\u201d The technology that has been implemented has become more sophisticated; which results in the smoke detectors being set off for minor heat and smoke obstructions according to the residence hall fire prevention sheet. New Upperclassman Residence Hall and New Freshman Residence Hall are among the newest residence buildings; which result in them having the most state of the art smoke detector technology. Meaning that those two residence halls are more likely to experience accidental alarm activations. The \u201cResident Hall Fire Alarm Prevention Guide,\u201d warns students about which preventable actions can activate the fire alarm and it informs students what to do to prevent them. The list of preventable actions consists of; shower steam, blow dryers, curling irons, burnt popcorn, food in microwave, hairspray, air fresheners, smoking, incense and candles. Students are always required to evacuate and follow fire evacuation procedures when the fire alarm goes off. Students are rarely ever told the reason why the fire alarm went off. \u201cI heard from rumors that the times the fire alarm did go off was due to someone burning popcorn, burning chicken nuggets but the most recent time I was not informed,\u201d said Jailene Burgos, sophomore communication film option major who lives in New Upperclassman Residence Hall, \u201cI feel safe knowing that the fire alarms are sensitive, however it is a pain when the alarm goes off at midnight when I have an exam or major assignment in the morning,\u201d Burgos continued. Since the Seton Hall fire in the year 2000, which affected 600 freshman residents; colleges and universities are well aware of the dangers that a fire entails Kean University has an active and updated emergency action plan, including building drills that run throughout the semester for the entire campus. \u201cWhen a fire alarm is activated, it is our duty to respond quickly to protect life and property, and we will continue to do so,\u201d said Dolan.

Detailed evacuation map and emergency action plans can also be found on this site.\nLives of those lost to domestic violence remembered through art By Kristen DeMatos Members of the YWCA of Union hosted a domestic violence awareness exhibit in the Miron Student Center on Oct. 20 called \u201cEmpty Place at the Table,\u201d which put a spotlight on victims. The art exhibition featured different table place settings each with a story about a victim. Each setting had a story displayed next to it that was written from the voice of the victim, explaining their life and how it was taken by a significant other. Two of the place settings belonged to local women who were killed recently. The family members of one woman, April Schenesky Wyckoff, were walking around and speaking with those who stopped to look at the display. One student walked up to the Empty Table display, covered her mouth and said, \u201cWow, this is so sad. I can\u2019t do this,\u201d and walked away. Although the displays were somber, all of those involved stressed how important it was for students to read these stories and be aware of the realities. YWCA Executive Director Janice Lilien said girls aged from 16-24 are at the highest risk for being involved in a violent relationship. \u201cIt\u2019s important to raise awareness,\u201d she said. This the eighth year they conducted the exhibition. Wyckoff\u2019s sister, Sheila McGraw said, \u201cIf one person reads April\u2019s story and it makes a difference, that makes the weight on our heart a little lighter.\u201d Elementary/science education major April Torres was caught off guard by the display. \u201cI just walked in here and saw all these things set up,\u201d she said. \u201cI had no idea what this was. It\u2019s really so sad.\u201d McGraw said what the YWCA does with this project is very important. \u201cIt highlights the women that they were, not the victims they became,\u201d she said. McGraw and her family have worked hard at raising awareness of domestic violence ever since her sister was killed. Earlier this year, they worked with the Union County YWCA to raise money and collect donated items for the shelter for victims of domestic abuse. McGraw says they collected 600\nOld book store location.\nPhotos by: Kristen DeMatos\nsets of sheets, 80 robes, slippers, diapers and $4,000. They even adopted a room at the shelter in memory of her April Wyckoff. Also on display were hand-decorated t-shirts created by children and women victims of domestic violence. They served as a form of art therapy to help them process the trauma of what they went through. Margaux Antoine, an art education major found the exhibition to be very moving. \u201cI really liked how they used art with the kids to help them understand their emotions. It\u2019s really powerful to see,\u201d she said. Marie Caruso-Terisi, a PALS (Peace, a Learned Solution) art therapist works with the children in creating their art. \u201cWe want to give them messages of hope. A big part of domestic violence is feeling shame, and this shows them that they are not alone. We want to create a safe space for them to express themselves.\u201d She said they use drama therapy, art therapy, and music therapy. If you or someone you know is experiencing domestic violence, it is suggested that you reach out to the Kean Counseling Center or go to: www.thehotline.org.\nAbove: April Schenesky Wyckoff \u2019s story Below: T-shirt created by a child depicting home life\nTwo-time Grammy winners take Kean on musical journey By Yuri Smishkewych On the British ensemble\u2019s second visit to Kean\u2019s Enlow Recital Hall, The King\u2019s Singers took the audience on a transatlantic vocal journey that included folklore from the Sans people of South Africa, letters of love and longing from England, Ireland and Continental Europe, and jubilant praise from the American South. \u201cWe always love coming here [Enlow Hall],\u201d said baritone Christopher Breurton of the acapella sextet at a meet-and-greet after the show. \u201cThe place has natural bloom, its acoustics, it\u2019s chamber musician-friendly and intimate.\u201d The concert, entitled the \u201cGreat American Songbook\u201d featured American popular songs from the middle and latter half of the past century alongside traditional Gospel arrangements, including \u201cGet Happy,\u201d \u201cSwing Low Sweet Chariot\u201d and a rendition of \u201cAt Last\u201d that would\u2019ve made Etta James smile with delight. One audience member oohed and awed in between sets, no doubt astonished by the ensemble\u2019s mastery in vocal modulations and impeccable timing. For instance, in John McCabe\u2019s \u201cFrom \u2018Cartography\u2019\u201d the group\u2019s voices created a sort of lyrical map of England: soothing legato for the rolling hills and hedgerows; and sharp, rugged staccatos for the highlands once passed Hadrian\u2019s Wall. \u201cThey\u2019re absolutely marvelous,\u201d said audience member Julius Gotilla. \u201cThey make what\u2019s so complex seem effortless.\u201d The King\u2019s Singers: Great American Songbook was the fourth concert held at the Enlow Recital Hall, located in the Nathan Weiss Graduate College on Kean\u2019s East Campus, of the 2015-16 season.\nPhotos: Chris O\u2019Donovan\nThe King\u2019s Singers ensemble.\nTransgender speaker at Kean OCC talks on transition By Desir\u00e9 McCoy Before being the individual she is today, Geena was seen as a man and a father. The sex she was assigned at birth did not align with the gender she identifies with - Dr. Geena Buono is transgender. In October, Dr. Geena Buono was welcomed as a guest speaker to Professor Atkins\u2019 Gender & Language Communication class at the Kean Ocean County College (OCC) campus. Dr. Buono grew up in Brick, NJ and attended Ocean County College. She is now a licensed Chiropractor in the states of New Jersey and New York, and is the lead singer/guitarist of the band \u201cGeena and Dragster\u201d soon releasing her first studio album. Before all of this there is a deeper story that some of the class couldn\u2019t initially relate to but surely could appreciate. Growing up in a body she did not belong in was very difficult and coping was a struggle. Denying her own identity by putting on an alpha male persona was not by any means easy. Eventually, Geena learned of the term crossdresser. Even though this seemed to help, the clothes weren\u2019t enough and the identity struggle became more complicated during\na time when transgender was not a term embraced in magazines like Vanity Fair. As challenges with her gender identity continued to add pressure to her life, Dr. Buono decided to seek therapy to get help and advice on what to do. At this time she discovered she was transgender, which led to her decision to become and embrace the woman she always felt she was and is today. Many years ago, Geena had several surgeries\nperformed to complete her transition. One of the hardest parts of the transition was the fact that Geena was married and had three young children. Not only did she have to worry about her intrapersonal struggle but her family facing criticism as well. Many adjustments had to be made, such as moving into an open community, taking on the roles of a woman, being judged by society, and helping her family adjust to her transition with\nTransgender guest speaker Dr. Geena Buono talks about her transition in Professor Atkins\u2019 Gender & Language Communication class at the Kean Ocean County College (OCC) campus.\nPhotos: Tommy Sisbarro\npatience and love. Her story was featured in People.com this past Mother\u2019s Day. As Geena finished her story, she wanted to remind us that there is no choice when it comes to being transgender. \u201cYou don\u2019t just decide to endure countless surgeries because it\u2019s trendy,\u201d said Dr. Buono. \u201cMany people struggle with their gender identity and sadly almost 50 percent of the transgender community commits suicide. We are all human, we all have the same biological make up, yet we find all these differences to separate ourselves.\u201d She continued that even when we feel so different, we are not alone; there are others fighting the same battles. We should embrace diversity \u201cbecause the world is a lot bigger than this classroom, and this whole town, this county and this state, and this nation.\u201d Dr. Buono itinerated that the only way to live her true authentic self was by letting go. She ended her talk with a quote from Marianne Williamson\u2019s poem \u201cOur Deepest Fear.\u201d \u201cAs we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.\u201d\nHEALTH Ahhh-choo! It\u2019s time for the \ufb02u shot\nBased on the best available data, here are some numbers to consider: \u2022 \u2022\n5 to 20 percent of the U.S. population that will get the flu, on average, each year. 200,000 are the average number of Americans hospitalized each year because of problems with the illness. 3,000 to 49,000 the number of people who die each year from flu-related causes in the U.S. $10 billion+ represents the average costs of hospitalizations and outpatient doctor visits related to the flu. The flu vaccine\u2019s effectiveness may vary depending on age, health, and immune status and how well scientists identify circulating viruses. In 2014-15, vaccine effectiveness was under 20%.\nBy Dr. Josh Palgi It is that time of year again: flu season. The flu season can stretch from October to May and usually peaks around January/ February. Influenza -- commonly known as \u201cthe flu\u201d -- is a contagious viral infection that affects the respiratory system, nose, throat and lungs. It has a very short incubation period so most patients fall ill within one to four days of exposure to the flu virus. The word influenza comes from the Italian language meaning \u201cinfluence\u201d and refers to the cause of the disease. Changes in medical thought led to the modification to \u201cinfluenza del freddo\u201d, meaning, and \u201cinfluence of the cold\u201d. The virus seems to cause epidemics throughout human history. The most famous and lethal outbreak was the 1918 flu pandemic, which lasted from 1918 to 1919 and is estimated to have killed from 2.5 to 5% percent of the worlds\u2019 population. While the flu can make anyone sick, certain people are at higher risk of serious flu related complications like pneumonia and bronchitis, which can lead to hospitalization or even death. The groups considered to be at high risk include children under six, asthma sufferers, pregnant women and people with chronic diseases, among others. Approximately 33% of the people with influenza are asymptomatic. Symptoms of\nEDITOR-IN-CHIEF: ANNALISE KNUDSON CO-EDITOR-IN-CHIEF: REBECCA PANICO NEWS EDITOR: DARIS MENDEZ FEATURES/A&E EDITOR: MARCO RODRIGUEZ\ninfluenza may include High fever, Cough, Body aches, chills, Headache and Fatigue. Traditional treatments include Staying home, Keeping well hydrated and rest. Tylenol or Motrin can keep the fever down and there are antiviral drugs that have been approved for flu patients. It usually takes between five and seven days for the flu to run its course The key steps to prevent the flu are to get vaccinated, wash your hands a lot and cover your mouth and nose when you cough or sneeze. The flu is the topic of many promising research projects and trials. Researchers are working on a universal flu vaccine, one that would cover every strain of the flu and that you wouldn\u2019t have to get every year. So, should you or shouldn\u2019t you get vaccinated? The Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) provides advice and guidance to the Director of the CDC regarding use of vaccines and related agents for control of vaccine-preventable diseases in the civilian population of the United States. Recommendations made by the ACIP are reviewed by the CDC Director and, if adopted, are published as official CDC/HHS recommendations in the Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (MMWR). The CDC\u2019s new report estimates that this season\u2019s flu vaccine is only 23% effective across all age groups, but it recommends that everyone older than 6 months of age get a flu vaccine as soon as it\u2019s available. Hover line is all about making decisions. You may want to discuss the most appropriate option with your physician but the final decision will come from you.

Bush won the presidential election. Yeah, it\u2019s been a while. It\u2019s been 29 years since the Mets have last won a World Series title. For nearly three decades since, Mets fans have known nothing but anger, misery, and heartache. The last success the Mets had was in 2006, when they were one game away from punching their ticket to the Fall Classic, before succumbing to the eventual World Series Champions, the St. Louis Cardinals. Talking about game seven still makes Mets fans cringe. After the 2006 season, the Mets floated into mediocrity. From 2008-2014, no Mets team had an above .500 record. Their brand new stadium (Citi Field) was an absolute ghost town. It often looked like there were more popcorn and beer vendors roaming the venue than fans. Year after year, Jeff and Fred Wilpon (the team owners) promised that the Mets will be better next year. It eventually fell on deaf ears. Fans got sick of hearing it, myself included. I began to fully embrace the Mets as a \u201clovable loser\u201d type of team. They became cheap entertainment, as you can get a ticket for cheaper than the chicken fingers and fries you would buy at the game. It\u2019s a tradition in my family that my dad, my brothers, and I make the trek to Citi Field\nto see the Mets\u2019 home opener, and while it is enjoyable, I always know that it means nothing, as the Mets are seemingly always eliminated from playoff contention by the time the summer rolls around. For some reason, this season just felt different from the get go. After finishing April with a 15-8 record, including a ten-game winning streak, it seemed as though the Wilpon\u2019s promise of a good team finally came true. It didn\u2019t last long, however, as the Mets reverted back to their old ways for much of May, June, and July, going 38-42 in that stretch. I was already telling myself, \u201cWell, better luck next year.\u201d The Mets\u2019 fortunes turned around on the trade deadline on July 31, when they picked up All-Star slugger Yoenis Cespedes from the Detroit Tigers. After acquiring Cespedes, as well as others including Juan Uribe, Kelly Johnson, and Tyler Clippard, the Mets became one of the most formidable teams in all of the MLB, going on a run that will be remembered for years. By the time the regular season concluded, the Mets finished with a 90-72 record, their best since 2006, and won the National League East pennant, their first since 2006 as well. For the first time in nearly a decade, the Mets were going to play October baseball. After a nail-biter of a series against the Los Angeles Dodgers, the Mets advanced to the NLCS for the first time in nearly a decade, to take on the red-hot Chicago Cubs. In what is seemingly an upset, the Mets swept the Cubs in four straight games, and punched their\nThe Mets celebrate their first NL East Pennant since 2006.\nticket to the World Series for the first time since 2000. When the Mets went to the World Series a decade a half ago, I was only nine years old. And while I was a big Mets fan then, it\u2019s something you cannot truly appreciate until you get older. It\u2019s an indescribable feeling to see a team you\u2019ve been rooting for your whole life, a team who has been the laughingstock of the MLB for years, make it to the championship. Seeing a city become united under the colors of orange and blue was a cathartic experience. While the Mets played lackluster against the Royals and lost the World Series in five games, this season isn\u2019t anything to be\nPhoto: Getty Images/ John Sommers II\nashamed of. If you were to tell me earlier this year that the Mets would be in the World Series this year, I would have laughed so hard that tears would have rolled from my eyes. The heart and tenacity showed by this team is something that will be cherished by the Flushing faithful forever. On paper, the 2015 Mets shouldn\u2019t have been as successful as they were, but they were able to prove everyone wrong, myself included. The real perk about all of this is that it seems as though the Mets will be a formidable foe in the MLB for the foreseeable future, and while we didn\u2019t get a World Series win this year, Mets fans can be confident that one is coming soon.\nRegistration frustrations By Annalise Knudson By the time the middle of the semester rolls around, students realize that registration is almost upon them. That means visiting their advisor for help, looking through guide sheets for their intended or declared major, and getting the hold lifted off their account to be able to register. This is one of the most anxious times of the semester for some students, especially if a student is nearing graduation or there are only a few sections for a class that you need to take for the upcoming semester. Waiting to register is stressful, especially when the website used for registering isn\u2019t working properly. Watching the numbers become lower and lower with each minute that passes was nerve wracking for me to see, especially when I was qualified to register but couldn\u2019t register due to technical difficulties. I wasn\u2019t the only student who had this problem when trying to register for next Spring 2016 semester classes on Oct. 27. I had priority registration so I knew that this wasn\u2019t the reason I couldn\u2019t register. When I woke up the morning I could register, it was 6:30 a.m. and I realized that I slept through midnight, the time I can register officially. I hurriedly grabbed my laptop, signed into the website, and tried to register for my previously selected courses I chose the week before. I clicked register and waited with my fingers crossed for it to go through. But then nothing happened. I felt a wave of disappointment and I felt my heartbeat racing faster. Why wasn\u2019t it working? I clicked refresh and tried again and again and nothing happened. It brought me back to the same page to register. I tried to do each class individually and was able to register for only a few classes. But I needed to register for other important classes. Those classes either had only one section, or were needed for me to graduate in May 2016. I started to panick. I packed my things up and headed to school too early for any offices to be open and tried again on the computers on campus. I kept receiving the same refreshed page with my classes still not registered. Then I realized that my best bet was to head to the Registrar\u2019s office. I waited on line and talked to other students with the same problems as me. I registered for my classes and my anxiety lessened. An email was sent out to all students further into the evening that they were fixing the site due to problems. It didn\u2019t stop students from freaking out all day and night over registration. For some people, registration is not a big deal and some students do not register until just before classes start. But some other students, registration issues can pose a problem. Students who work part-time, full-time, or multiple jobs need to fit their school schedules to their job schedules to be able to pay for bills and school. Going to a commuter school, a semester\u2019s schedule impacts students of any major because of other priorities that they need to adhere to whether it is job obligations or family obligations and so on. This is not intended to be against the system used for registration, because the problem was resolved during late afternoon and evening, just in time for the rest of the students on the schedule to register in the coming days. Registering for classes is always a stressful time for me and I\u2019m sure that I\u2019m not the only one who is stressed when registering. But once classes are registered for and the new semester starts, we get to prepare for the next semester\u2019s anxious registration process all over again.\nNew Jersey\u2019s Distinctive Public University\nGRADUATE PROGRAMS American Studies Business Administration (MBA) Communication Disorders* Computational Science Criminal Justice Doctorate in Physical Therapy* Ed.D. in Organizational Leadership Education Holocaust and Genocide Studies Instructional Technology Nursing (MSN) Occupational Therapy* Professional Science Master\u2019s in Environmental Science (PSM) Social Work (MSW)* *fall enrollment only\nstockton.edu/grad Stockton is an AA/EO institution.\nMen\u2019s basketball looking to have a bounce-back season By Joel Joly Kean basketball is finally here. After finishing last season with a record of 6-19, men\u2019s team captain Tommy Soulias has big expectations, and is motivated to start the season off strong in the home opener against Marymount University. \u201cWe want to be a 20 win team,\u201d Soulias said enthusiastically. \u201cWe want to get into the NJAC playoffs, and then hopefully we win NJAC championship. Winning the NJAC championship you get into the Division III NCAA tournament, March Madness, who doesn\u2019t want to be playing college basketball in March?\u201d Tommy Soulias, nephew of former NBA player Garry Witts, had a successful season last year. \u201cBasketball is in my family,\u201d Soulias said. \u201cMy Mom had played basketball in college, and my dad had played basketball in college. My mom went to Sumsion College, and my dad went to TCNJ. I started playing basketball at 4 years old. I really didn\u2019t have much of a choice.\u201d Soulia\u2019s play last season did not go unrecognized. He was named to the Division III All-Metropolitan team selection after leading the NJAC in scoring, averaging 21.4 points per game. Soulias has great confidence in his team and is ready to take on the challenge going into this season. \u201cI feel great about the guys we got,\u201d Soulias said. \u201cWe have a lot of new comers. As far as the returners, we have me, senior Mike Diamond, junior Kevin Grek, and senior Dre Kelly. We\u2019re excited. We can\u2019t wait to get it going. The off-season was great for us. We got a lot of work done together, and we built up some chemistry, so we\u2019re excited for the season.\u201d The Cougars made some adjustments this year, and Soulias seems satisfied with the results. \u201cOur assistant coaches did a great job on recruiting,\u201d Soulias said. \u201cThey went out and got some talent dudes, who are athletic and can defend. The guys we have returning put in a lot of skill work over the summer to be ready to go this year.\u201d\n\u201cWe want to get into the NJAC playoffs, and then hopefully we win NJAC championship.\u201d\nPhotos: Larry Levanti\nSoulias was a key player in Kean\u2019s season last year, and is expected to have a bigger role this season.\nKean promotes McKiernan to Director of Athletics\nCotto vs. \u00c1lvarez:\nBy Angel Ospina\nBy Jaime Alicea III\nBehind every great team is a great leader, and Kean University\u2019s athletic program has officially found its leader. Jack McKiernan was officially named as the schools seventh Athletic Director this past October. \u201cThe number one goal for the athletic department is to have student athletes who graduate within 4 years playing here,\u201d said McKiernan over the phone. \u201cWe want to be highly competitive on the field, we want to compete for conference championships, we want to finish towards the top of the conference, and when we have the opportunities, compete for national championships.\u201d The university has employed McKiernan for the past 15 years, where he was hired as the Sports Information Director and five years later was promoted to the Associate Athletic Director. Former Athletic Director Chris Morgan resigned at the end of the Spring 2015 semester after accepting the same position at his alma mater, Elizabethtown College. In search for a new athletic director, the university turned to the man embedded with knowledge of Kean\u2019s athletic program and named him as the Acting Athletic Director. \u201cI have a deep love and passion for the school,\u201d said McKiernan. \u201cI devoted a long part of my life to this and to have the opportunity to hopefully have a positive impact on the university going forward is what I\u2019ve wanted for my professional career.\u201d McKiernan\u2019s role as a leader stems from when was in the trenches as an offensive lineman for Rutgers football team and was named team captain his senior year in 1997. \u201cBeing a leader on a team sport, there\u2019s a lot of carry over into real life, putting your own ego behind the goals of the team is what you need,\u201d said McKiernan. Now McKiernan is leading several teams as athletic director and his staff is eager to follow. \u201cHe has the universities and athletic programs best interest at heart, so that\u2019s a great thing for our program,\u201d said Leslie LaFronz, Head Coach of Kean\u2019s field hockey program. LeFronz is in the midst of her seventh season as head coach and throughout the years has got to known McKiernan quite well. \u201cHe was actually the person I interviewed with when I was hired,\u201d LeFronz said. \u201cHe loves Kean University, he\u2019s invested in our program and our student athletes and we\u2019re really excited to have him as our athletic director.\u201d\nPuerto Rican middleweight fighter Miguel Cotto is set to fight Mexico\u2019s golden boy Sa\u00fal \u201cCanelo\u201d \u00c1lvarez on Saturday November 21 at the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas. The winner of the Battle in Vegas will take home the ultimate prize, the WBC World Middleweight Championship. Even at the age of 35, Cotto isn\u2019t slowing down. Under his new coach Freddie Roach, Cotto is on a three fight winning streak. \u201cI think I brought his boxing back,\u201d Roach said in an interview with Newsday. \u201cHe was a good amateur boxer with great movement, and then later against [Manny] Pacquiao, he fought flat-footed and tried to knock people out with one punch. I wanted him to get back to his boxing ability, working on movement, side-to-side, on his toes, light on his feet, faster, and it\u2019s working very well.\u201d Miguel Cotto has been the pride of Puerto Rico for the last decade. With a record of 40-4, Cotto is out to prove that he can still be a household name in the boxing universe. \u00c1lvarez (45-1-1) has lost only once in 47 professional fights, losing to number one ranked Floyd \u201cMoney\u201d Mayweather back in 2013. Since his loss to Mayweather, \u00c1lvarez has won three straight fights, and knows that a win against Cotto could push him to new heights in his young professional boxing career. The reason this fight sold out within days of the fights announcement, has to do with the on-going historical boxing matches between Puerto Rican and Mexican fighters, dating back all the way to 1934. Canelo has never been one to call out his opponent, always staying humble and working on himself instead, but that didn\u2019t stop his fans here at Kean from chiming in their thoughts about the upcoming bout. \u201cThis isn\u2019t even going to be a fight,\u201d Kean student Alex Burgos said. \u201cCanelo is 10 years younger, and he\u2019s quicker and stronger than Cotto. He should knock him out in the sixth round.\u201d \u201cIf Cotto can hurt him early in the fight, then maybe he\u2019ll have a chance,\u201d Dylan Short said. \u201cBut at age 35 he\u2019s gonna have a heart attack before he lasts 12 rounds with Canelo.\u201d The winner of this fight will go on to face the undefeated Kazakhstan knockout specialist Gennady Golvokin. In 34 professional fights, Golovkin has 31 of those fights by knockout. The added motivation to face such a high profile opponent only adds fuel to the fire for these two prizefighters. As they say, history always repeats itself, and look no further than this fight on November 21 to be put in the history books as another historical Puerto Rican and Mexican brawl we can all remember.\nJack McKiernan is the seventh Athletic Director in school history.\nMcKiernan is not looking to make any drastic changes in his honeymoon stage as athletic director, as he has already been steadily involved in the shaping of the program over the past 15 years. \u201cI\u2019ve been part of hiring over half the staff that\u2019s already in place here. I\u2019ve seen them at their highs and I\u2019ve seen them at their lows so there\u2019s a good trust built up with the coaching staff,\u201d said McKiernan. Head Coach of the women\u2019s lacrosse team, Jordan Trautman spoke of that trust. \u201cHe is always willing to go the extra mile to make sure we as coaches have all the necessary tools to be as successful as possible, and to take care of each and every athlete so their experience here at Kean as a student athlete is extraordinary,\u201d said Trautman. McKiernan\u2019s hard work and dedication is displayed not only at Kean, but also throughout the entire nation, as he is currently the chair of NCAA Division III National Football Committee and NJAC Football Sport chair. In 2011 he received a Service Award for his outstanding working and contributions to interscholastic athletics by the New Jersey State Interscholastic Athletic Association. McKiernan has all the accolades, but it\u2019s his deep passion for sports that makes him so equipped for the job. \u201cIt\u2019s what I do, its what I love, sports is who I am,\u201d said McKiernan.\nwho walks away the winner?\nPhoto: Naoki Fukada\n\u00c1lvarez enters the fight against Cotto as the favorite to win, as determined by Las Vegas odds makers.",

        "raw_content": "Snake Handling \u2013 Faith or Foolishness?\nTags: Bible, Christianity, Church History, Faith, Snake-handling, Snakes\nSome of you may have heard about the Appalachian snake-handling pastor who died several days ago from a snake bite. Here are my thoughts on the matter\u2026\nWhile I applaud the exercise of faith in any professing Christian, there is a difference between exercising faith and laying down on the railroad tracks and daring a train to come by. Surely God expects us to use our brain and accumulated knowledge in matters clearly known (such as the fact that poisonous snakes can kill you) and not waste our time putting God to some magic genie test. In fact, Matthew 4 tells Jesus\u2019 response to Satan\u2019s temptation where Jesus was basically asked to prove himself by jumping off the pinnacle of the temple without getting hurt. Jesus replied, \u201cDo not test the Lord your God.\u201d So those who center their faith around such silly tests are not only misguided in their focus, but are, in fact, not following the example and command of Jesus.\nAlso, while it may make the heads of some of my fellow conservative Christians explode, it is thought by many biblical scholars that Mark 16:9-20 which contains the snake handling passage was not originally part of Mark\u2019s gospel. That is why several translations either omit it completely or place it in brackets to note its uncertain origin. To center one\u2019s faith and practice around some of the very few disputed verses in the Bible is woefully misguided.\nAnd if the passage was considered to be authoritative and taken literally, don\u2019t you think there would be some history of that happening in the first 1900 years of the church rather than strangely appearing in Appalachia a century ago? Here\u2019s a clue, folks: when practices and beliefs emerge a couple thousand years after the history of the church has done otherwise, it is inevitably the new divergence that is astray and not the countless generations that came before.\nIf the pastor was truly a man of Christian faith \u2013 and I have no reason to believe otherwise in spite of our very different take on snake handling \u2013 then I believe he has passed from this life to an eternal one in the presence of his Lord. However, I can\u2019t help but wonder if Jesus\u2019 first words to him after death were \u201cWhat were you thinking?\u201d",

        "title": "Reflections on \"Bird in the Room\" (2015, Israel, 67 min)",
        "raw_content": "by Gabor Por \u00b7 Published February 4, 2019 \u00b7 Updated February 4, 2019\nEvery nation has its heroes. Some adore athletes, others soldiers, or actors, or rich people or politicians, or clergyman. OK, it is a generalization at least in two ways, because not everyone in a given nation will adore the same kind of people and you can have more than one type of heroes, but you get the point. One of the things I learned from this film how the stars of Israel got to include poets. From the very beginning of the nation\u2019s births there were poets among the influential leaders of the country as it was being born, chief among them Nathan Alterman. (For proof of him being an idol for Israel just check the 200 shekel bill.) He had a powerful presence, although he never was an elected politician. Bird in a Room is a poetic biopic about his daughter, Tirza Atar, but having such a famous father cannot be omitted, so it is quite about him too.\nI will not recount the details of Tirza Atar\u2019s life and death, for that you really have to watch this documentary. In short though, she grew up in the shadow of her famous and loving, but not always present father and struggled to find her own poetic voice, eventually succeeding in this endeavor. She worked as an actor, even went to acting school with her first husband to New York (end ended up studying dancing under Martha Graham), but missed her beloved homeland too much and returned to Israel. She wrote lyrics to songs too, e.g. this Chava Alberstein Birthday Prayer, and once her children became toddlers started writing down the stories she told to her children as children books. The most famous of these became The Lion That Loved Strawberries.\nNot being an Israeli, nor fluent in Hebrew, I had limited exposure to Israeli poetry as most of it was never really translated to English. Thus through this movie I enjoyed learning about these poets, their milieu and of course hearing at least some of the poems they wrote. I checked amazon.com and didn\u2019t find any book or collection by either the father or the daughter. This lack of access to the poems themselves (in English) raised the question about the target audience for the movie. I assume it primarily works Israelis who are probably aware of the heroine to varying levels of degree, depending on how well-versed and interested they are in literature they are. Just like documentaries about baseball players in the US are popular among baseball fans, this gives details and background story of heroes of Israel for them. For outsiders like me it provides a small peak inside though.\nI couldn\u2019t decide whether the filmmakers were nostalgic, or educational or factual when they tried to install a sense that \u201cback then\u201d, when Nathan Alterman was in his prime everyone had role in society. When his daughter became of age this sense of place and duty started to get disappear ad by the time of her death it stopped existing altogether. They also left the question unanswered whether she committed suicide or died in an accident. My overall impression is that this ambiguity itself is (part of) the answer in modern times.\nBird and freedom are the recurring themes in the movie. Tirza craved freedom, like birds; albeit she spent her life in rooms, according to the title. It fits then that her demise was falling/jumping out of a window. The technique that is often used at the end of films, when the camera keeps getting higher and we are getting an ever more distant view and less and less details of the scene at hand is sometimes called \u201cGod\u2019s eye\u2019s view\u201d. It helps to evoke the feeling in the viewers that on one hand we are gaining a wider perspective and on the other hand there is always a bigger picture to get. Now, that drones make this technique cheaper and more available to the everyday and even lay filmmaker I am wondering whether its (over)use helps the depersonalization of society. Nowadays the barrier to fly above is so low, that anyone can tear him/herself out of society, therefore weakening its fabric.\nBack to the film: it is extremely well edited: building up a good rhythm with the use of archival footage, atmosphere establishing shots, recitals of poems and songs and of course the inevitable talking heads. When I sat down to watch it I had to fight the urge or not doing so as I had little interests in the topic and never heard of the people in it. However the film drew me in and ended up being one of the most exciting documentary I ever watched. Thank you, Ari Davidovich\u2013writer, director, producer of the movie\u2013for teaching me in a way I enjoyed it.\nIMDB summary: Two poets, a father and a daughter, in a dangerous game of words. The mysterious life and death of Tirza Atar, daughter of Nathan Alterman, Israel\u2019s national poet.\n* I had a chance to watch this movie because Docs for Edcuation provided me with a copy. Thank you.\nWritten by Gabor Por\nTags: israelnaatha altermanpoetrytirza atar",

        "title": "Winning and Losing: Culture Markers That Destroy the Quest for Unity in the Church | John H Armstrong",
        "raw_content": "Winning and Losing: Culture Markers That Destroy the Quest for Unity in the Church\nJohn Armstrong July 26, 2011 Missional Church, The Church, The Future, Unity of the Church\nThe idea of \u201cwinning\u201d and \u201closing\u201d prevails in our culture. No one likes to come in second thus we are all conditioned to win. In fact, we now have a culture that seeks to promote winning while at the same time we are seeking to compensate for all those who are not first so they will not be damaged psychologically. Ask any teacher about grades and students and you will understand what I mean.\nBut my point today is rather simple and obvious. We live in a culture that is marked by patterns of belonging that are shaped by the spirit of voluntary association. Because of this freedom we can belong to and leave groups, organizations, associations and communities any time we desire. We can even opt out of families if we desire. (Some will legally change their name, as NBA player Ron Artest, whose new name come August will be Metta World Peace!)\nThese cultural patterns of belonging are reinforced by a prevailing individualism and complemented by a consumerist orientation. One could say that consumerism and competition are two of the most important values in our society.\nWhen belonging is based on individual free choice, in a context such as our own, groups find themselves competing for allegiance, loyalty and potential members. This is why fraternities and sororities have a \u201crush\u201d week. And this is why the military must \u201crecruit\u201d future servicemen and women.\nFor better and/or worse the church has been deeply affected by all of this. Church life is even shaped by this as much as by anything else in our lives. In Western Europe the state church is markedly different. (I prefer our system for a number of reasons!) In Greece and Russia Orthodoxy is wrapped up in nationalism and culture in a very significant way. In Africa, Asia and the Pacific family, tribe and community all have a significant say in one\u2019s religious expression.\nWe need to be honest about this. Personal choice and freedom is a great strength to American religion. Vitality is required or people will fall away. This is precisely what is happening right now as perhaps never before in American life.\nBut this way of doing things has some negatives that are readily apparent if you consider them. Serious misunderstanding and distortion of the faith have resulted from the American context. I think the most important loss is the unity of the church. Most American leaders have not thought deeply about this issue because it doesn\u2019t fit well with recruiting new members for their church. Church shopping is a prominent feature of American Christianity and pastors and churches promote this response in a myriad of ways. Some of these are subtle. Others are more obvious.\nIf personal choice is the primary factor in church membership then it is not hard to see why American churches \u2014 particularly Protestant churches, though not exclusively so \u2013 are so rigidly divided along lines of race, class and ethnicity, not to mention denominational differences.\nThe rather crude analogy of the marketplace is not commonly applied to how we think about what our church does but it hangs there 24/7. This makes it terribly difficult for Americans to see the need for missional-ecumenism. The problem, in this context, is not theology but culture and emotion rooted in culture.",

        "title": "Teacher Brings Home Powerful Lessons About Holocaust | John M. Blodgett",
        "raw_content": "Teacher Brings Home Powerful Lessons About Holocaust\nBecky Dell went to hell for summer vacation. It wasn\u2019t the first time for the middle school teacher, and if history is any indication, it won\u2019t be the last.\nIn July, Dell toured six concentration camps, taking her tally to 11 since 2011. She saw displays of braided hair she was not allowed to photograph out of respect for human remains. She walked into a gas chamber, its concrete walls stained blue through a reaction with the cyanide-based pesticide that was turned on people. She stood before a mountain of shoes, many children-sized, and thought of her own four children whose first pairs she had saved.\nShe cried, and she cried some more.\n\u201cYou can imagine two weeks of stuff like that taking an emotional toll,\u201d Dell says. \u201cBut it was worth all the tears to come back with information to pass along to my students.\u201d\nDell teaches eighth graders at El Cerrito Middle School in Corona. Every spring, she covers \u201cThe Diary of Anne Frank,\u201d a Jewish teen\u2019s journal about hiding from the Nazis in a \u201csecret annex\u201d above an apartment. Frank died in a concentration camp in 1945.\n\u201cYou can\u2019t teach \u2018The Diary of Anne Frank\u2019 unless you teach about the Holocaust,\u201d Dell says. \u201cOtherwise they\u2019re going to read it and have no idea why this young girl is in hiding for 25 months.\u201d\nShe assigns research projects and takes students to the Los Angeles Museum of the Holocaust and the Tolerance Education Center in Rancho Mirage.\n\u201cIt\u2019s hard for the kids to comprehend (the extermination of) 6 million Jews,\u201d Dell says. But she can provide images \u201cthat will bring this story to life for them.\u201d\nSome images are in the form of stories Dell has collected, such as that of a woman who arrived at a concentration camp still wearing her wedding gown. Other images are photographs showing Dell standing inside a gas chamber or beneath the arch at Auschwitz.\nDell never learned about the Holocaust in school in the 1970s. She didn\u2019t learn about it until watching a television miniseries in 1978, a year after graduating high school.\nShe\u2019s watched \u201cprobably just about every Holocaust movie ever made,\u201d and has read more than 100 books on the subject, many of which she has since donated to the middle school library.\nShe eventually discovered she never learned about the Holocaust in school because few American World War II veterans told of the horrors they had witnessed. Unspoken, their stories went untaught.\nSam Oosterveen, 14, a freshman at Santiago High School in Corona, learned about the Holocaust throughout school in his native Holland before his family moved to Corona in July 2013. Yet when he studied the topic in Dell\u2019s class this past spring, it was the first time he had ever taken a Holocaust-related field trip or visited with a survivor.\nThat survivor, Michael Resmo, 86, plays a big part in Dell\u2019s journey. They met when she first brought her students to listen to him speak at the Tolerance Education Center in 2011. Dell eventually visited all three camps where Resmo was interred, forging a bond so heartfelt that he vowed to talk to her students every year until he was \u201cno longer able to talk.\u201d\nDell\u2019s passion for the Holocaust surprises some people when they learn she isn\u2019t Jewish. She teaches about it because she\u2019s \u201ca human being and everybody should care about what happened to those people.\u201d",

It was a gorgeous day with perfect weather for home renovations and lots of smiles and laughter.\nIn a little over 8 hours, a group of 20+ volunteers peeled paint, repainted, did yard work, installed a drainage system in the yard, repainted the living room, installed several new windows, retiled the bathroom, and so much more. We were able to support a long-time community partner and make an impact thanks to our members, the Done-in-a-Day committee, Rebuilding Together leaders, and volunteer contractors.\nIt was exciting to see just how much could be accomplished in one day!",

        "raw_content": "Kathy McBroom April 26, 2014 Uncategorized\nRecently I saw the movie \u201cSon of God\u201d. As I watched the movie, my mind was preoccupied. I am going to Haiti the first two weeks of June. I will be working with a ministry called \u201cM y Life Speaks\u201d. I am more than excited. Since I am a teacher, I will be working with the schools, doing I have no idea what, but I don\u2019t care. This is not about what I can offer them but what God wants to do in me. When I knew God was leading me to go, my husband Robert and I committed to paying for the trip ourselves. I sent letters to friends and family, and in it I asked them not to send me money but only to pray for me. So, as I sat watching \u201cThe Son of God\u201d, my mind wandered to the fact that I owed my last payment on my trip. Naturally, I thought \u201cWe owe this money\u201d, and \u201cDo we have this money?\u201d God\u2019s got plenty of money, I like to say, but of course, do I really believe that, or is it something I like to tell everyone else?\nI knew in my heart to trust: just trust. But finances can be hard, can\u2019t it? It gets to the heart of us which is selfish and self seeking. Then, as I watched the movie, Judas appeared. You know how the story. The strangest thoughts came over me. I can identify with Judas. He was selfish. Maybe he loved money; maybe he wanted power. Maybe he thought he could become famous. Maybe he thought he was doing the right thing in some strange way. I have been this person, and at the heart of me is selfishness. I started thinking, \u201cJudas, don\u2019t do it. Don\u2019t do it! Don\u2019t sell your soul to the devil. Don\u2019t betray my best friend.\u201d Tears were welling up because I can\u2019t tell you how many times I have done that very thing. I have lived my life selfishly with thoughts of Kathy, not Jesus. If you have seen the movie, there was a pivotal moment when Judas speaks. He says, \u201cWhat\u2019s in it for me?\u201d It was as if the entire theater stopped eating popcorn, moving, or even breathing all at once, and the God of the Universe was speaking to me. I live my life with that governing thought most of the time. Oh, how I am sick of me.\nFinish this story with me though for a miracle happened. When Robert and I arrived home and I literally was headed to the computer to make my final Haiti payment, I stopped to open the mail. There it was: an unexpected refund check for $78 over the amount of money for my two weeks in Haiti. At that time all that was left was the cost of my flight. As I write this, I am within a few hundred dollars of that also being totally paid. Some family has given me gifts of money even when I said not to, other unexpected funds have come, and God paid for a trip that I never asked Him to pay for. So, in my weak human nature, God still provides and loves me. Wow, what will happen in Haiti?\nVisit my web site: http://www.kathymcbroom.com and go to Amazon.com for resources; You Ain\u2019t in Kansas Anymore\u201d, a 30 day devotional, And This Ain\u2019t Hollywood Either, a second 30 day devotional and Giving Yourself Away, a bible study.\nPrevious And That\u2019s the Way My Life Goes\nNext Happy first day of summer break!",

        "raw_content": "Man Accused in Casper Shooting Denies First-Degree Murder Charge\nThe man accused of fatally shooting another man in north Casper early last month entered a not guilty plea Tuesday afternoon in Natrona County District Court.\nJason Tsosie John, 32, is charged with a single count of first-degree murder. He could face the death penalty or life in prison if convicted, under state statute.\nHowever, Assistant District Attorney Trevor Schenk told District Judge Catherine Wilking during Tuesday's hearing that prosecutors will not seek the death penalty.\nSchenk also said that it would be appropriate to hold a scheduling conference before the case proceeds to trial. He said that prosecutors anticipate a trial in this case would last no more than five days.\nProsecutors allege that John fatally shot 29-year-old Wesley Willow, Jr., inside John's trailer home at 1250 N. Center St., Space No. 75 early on the morning of August 3. Police received a 911 call regarding the shooting at 4:12 a.m.\nAccording to charging documents, investigators believe John got into an argument with Willow's then-girlfriend via text message. John reportedly sent threatening text messages to the woman, daring her to come to his trailer home to fight him.\nWillow, his then-girlfriend and another man went to John's home that morning. A witness said that Willow approached John's trailer home and was struck by gunfire from within the trailer while he was on the porch.\nThrough his attorneys, John told investigators that Willow had threatened to come to his home to assault him. John claimed to have been holding an AR-15/M4-style rifle on his porch and warned the three others to stay away, as they approached.\nJohn claims to have shot Willow in self-defense after Willow charged at John inside the trailer home.\nPolice describe Willow as having stood 5'7\" tall and having weighed 160 pounds, while John is 6'4\" and weighs 275 pounds.\nAfter Willow's body was moved from the floor inside John's trailer home, investigators found three bullet holes in the floor where the body had been. According to an affidavit of probable cause, evidence technicians said the bullet trajectories were consistent with a person having fired the rifle from a standing position, directly down into a target above which the shooter was standing.\nPolice found multiple entry wounds to the front and back of Willow's body. Bullets penetrated his body at an upward angle, despite the height difference between Willow and John.\nJohn was free on bond at the time of Tuesday's arraignment.\nRoughly 15 of the victim's family and friends were present in the courtroom. After court adjourned and Judge Wilking left, a deputy asked them to leave.\nAs they began to file out, several people shouted and cursed at John, who remained seated at a table with his attorneys. At least one person yelled at a group of people who were there in support of John.\nFollowing the outbursts, deputies escorted those people who had yelled or cursed out of the courtroom. Several people held each other and sobbed in the hallway outside the courtroom for a few minutes before leaving the courthouse.\nFiled Under: Casper Police, court, death, murder, not guilty, police, shooting",

He started his own business, Schaffert Construction, in 1989, so he could have the flexibility he needed to care for a son with cerebral palsy. He bought a Kitchen Solvers franchise in 1998 and has focused on kitchen remodeling ever since.\nWhat were you doing before Kitchen Solvers?\nI\u2019m a carpenter by trade. I worked my way up through the trade and started my own construction business, Schaffert Construction, in 1989, but I was looking for something that was more of a specialty. We operate Kitchen Solvers as a division of Schaffert Construction, but that\u2019s where we put our emphasis. We do whatever work comes along right now, but we put all of our marketing efforts into Kitchen Solvers. My preference is to do kitchen work. There\u2019s no mud, no working out in the cold weather or rain. When I do additions and that kind of work, there\u2019s a lot more involved. Kitchens are easier. It\u2019s a more specialized product line, and it\u2019s easier to get workers because they don\u2019t have to have as broad a range of knowledge. In kitchens, I can also offer a wide range of options \u2014 from a reface to a total remodel.\nI\u2019m able to have a wider range of services than anybody in my competitive market. Kitchen Solvers allows me to offer a huge range of services. Most people that do a kitchen remodel, let\u2019s say they go down to the box store. If refacing is available at all, it\u2019s in six door styles, three different woods and two stain choices. We have thousands and thousands of different options that we can offer customers. We can modify their existing cabinets, not just reface them. We can add new cabinets and use refacing to make everything match.\nHistorically, refacing has been pretty appealing to people. People have been pretty tight the last few years, and especially now, people are typically looking for the least expensive approach, which is something we can offer. We\u2019ve even done a few jobs where we just replaced doors and drawer fronts, did a stain match with the color of the existing cabinetry and changed out the molding.\nHow did you find out about Kitchen Solvers?\nI was looking online for franchise information, using franchise-rating websites. I was specifically looking for something with kitchens. One nice thing about kitchens is that the jobs are pretty quick. I was thinking about various options for specialization. When my focus was design/builder remodeling, I wanted to get out of the full-blown wide range of remodeling and get into something narrower and more focused, and I liked that kitchens would allow me to focus on one room with a shorter duration for jobs. Also, I can train pretty much anyone to reface, unless you\u2019re all thumbs. That doesn\u2019t apply to other aspects of remodeling, so the labor force was another consideration in looking into kitchen remodeling and refacing. I have two carpenters that I work for me, and I have a part-time office person to help me run my business. Since the jobs are smaller, it does require you from a sales cycle standpoint to get more leads. It\u2019s a different dynamic for sure, but you\u2019re also not stuck working for somebody for three to six months, especially if they turn out not to be fun to work for.\nWhat sets Kitchen Solvers apart?\nThey have their own business operating system. If you\u2019re new to kitchen remodeling, they train you. If you\u2019re already in business, they still help you, because it gives you a framework in which to better operate your business. They have great sales tools. I get access to products and services that I wouldn\u2019t otherwise get at the same price point because of the buying factor of going through a franchise. A franchise is also more saleable. Kitchen Solvers has a history of franchisees being able to sell their franchise. If you\u2019re AAA Remodeling, or Bob\u2019s Remodeling, that makes it harder to sell your business. With a franchise, you have verifiable financial information that a buyer can look at when they consider buying your business. Having a franchise gives you a level of credibility. Kitchen Solvers isn\u2019t going to sell a franchise to just anybody. You\u2019re part of a national organization that is reputable. The brand is a major part of that.\nWho makes a good Kitchen Solvers franchisee? What attracted you to it?\nI wanted something that was easier, and my intention was to have a business I could build and grow so that I was not involved with every aspect of the operation. I think someone who wants a business that they can grow is a good candidate for a Kitchen Solvers franchise.\nI\u2019m no longer out on most jobs now. You can hire your installation expertise. Somebody who has a background in sales and experience at managing a company, I think, is going to do well at a franchise. Someone who has construction skills and wants to have a simpler, more predictable product is also going to be a good candidate.\nWhat do you enjoy about your business?\nI like bringing a project together and seeing the finished product. What I really like is when we do a CAD (computer-aided design) design for a more involved kitchen remodel, and then you start to look at the finished product and you can\u2019t tell the CAD design from the finished kitchen. That lets you know that you delivered on the vision.\nRefacing usually isn\u2019t as involved. It\u2019s usually about updating the style. With a new kitchen design or remodeled kitchen design, not only are you changing style and fashion, but you are changing the way the kitchen functions. I like giving people a more functional kitchen \u2014 one that better meets their needs.\nI prefer to work in homes built after 1978 because you don\u2019t have to worry about the hassle of lead laws. One of the challenges of remodeling a kitchen in any home is accomplishing someone\u2019s goals. When you do a reface, you\u2019re not doing many changes to the room size and cabinet layout. One of the benefits is that you don\u2019t have to change anything other than the looks of the cabinets. When you get into more functional changes, the project becomes much more involved. You might expand into an adjoining space.\nPretty much every kitchen needs remodeling about every 20 years or so because it\u2019s made of products that wear. I\u2019ve worked in kitchens that were 40 years old and still original. There was no refacing that kitchen. One thing for people to be aware of \u2014 the longer you put off remodeling, the more it will cost when you finally do it.\nHow large is the opportunity?\nI have more prospects now than I\u2019ve had for the last two years. Tentatively, things are looking better. From a \u201cwork on the books\u201d standpoint, the last two years has been a challenge. We tried a lot of things to get through it to find work. What we found was most successful was marketing back to previous customers. I just joined a Business Networks International group, which is a peer referral network group. That\u2019s pretty promising. I tried to do some online lead generation services and found them to be a waste of time and money. Home shows in my market have not been that successful \u2014 they don\u2019t have enough traffic or qualified buyers. In other markets, home shows do well, but in our market the home show we have hasn\u2019t resulted in business the last few years. One of the things I like about BNI is that only one of a business type is allowed into a group, so I\u2019m the only remodeler. So anyone in the group who knows someone who needs a remodel \u2014 I get the lead. I find it appealing because it\u2019s exclusive. The other thing is that people in my group include a realtor, a banker, an investor, a lady who sells food supplements, a photographer. That covers a broad range of businesses and demographics. I have found that I need to do more networking. I\u2019ve joined some networking groups. Business used to beat a path to my door, and it doesn\u2019t anymore. I need to spend more time talking to people and getting our message out.\nWho are your main customers? Who are your best customers?\nProfessionals, whether it\u2019s a one- or a two-worker family, are good customers. Recently there have been a lot of single worker households with kids. I\u2019ve done some jobs for empty nesters. Also, people who are getting ready for retirement who want to do some work in their home before they retire. A fair number of my customers have been federal government workers \u2014 I guess they\u2019re the ones that have money right now. My base of customers over the last year has largely come by referral.\nWhat kind of carpentry experience did you have before starting a Kitchen Solvers?\nI got into the industry in 1972 at age 18. I started right out of high school, and went right into construction. My wife and I \u2014 I\u2019ve been married since 1976 \u2014 we started the business because we had a son born who has cerebral palsy. I was a project manager for a developer, and I was not able to have the freedom to work my own schedule. That was why we started Schaffert Construction \u2014 to have that flexibility. That is one of the real benefits, if you do it right, is you can have that personal flexibility. If you own the company, it follows the direction you point it in, or at least it should. My son is 25 now. He lives at home. He\u2019s like a big, happy 2-year-old in a 6\u20191\u201d body.\nWhat types of work are you getting more of?\nWhat we\u2019ve been doing more of over the last year and a half is repair work. We\u2019ve also been doing some new kitchens. The bulk of what people are doing seems to be repair work on the Schaffert side. Things that need repair and replacement, you can\u2019t put off. But I just sold a kitchen today. A job we just finished up was a lady who needed to have her porch rebuilt. That\u2019s normally at the bottom of my list. Once somebody hires us to do a job, they will call us and I\u2019ll either do the job for them or point them to someone else who will do a good job. I did a couple of bathrooms last year. Bathroom remodeling is a line of work in itself.\nHow long do most jobs take?\nA reface is going to take less than a week. We had one huge kitchen that took two weeks, but it had almost 100 openings. A renovation, it just depends on how much is involved. If it\u2019s a $60,000 total kitchen renovation, it could take two months. Ripping everything down, rewiring, permits, inspections, putting in a new hardwood or tile floor \u2014 all those things add to the schedule. The time need for the job is dictated by the scope of the work and how many things you\u2019re replacing. A quick swap \u2014 where you change out cabinets and counters \u2014 is a one- to two-week job, because you\u2019re maintaining the layout of the existing kitchen. You\u2019re not expanding the cabinet layout. If you get into moving walls, you\u2019re talking about a major renovation that will take more time.\nDifferent franchises have different approaches and different levels of skills. I\u2019ve done commercial work. I\u2019ve got a total construction background. I\u2019ve built new homes. You don\u2019t need that. For me, it just happens to be where I came from. If you\u2019re going to focus on refacing and new cabinets \u2014 one of the things that appealed to me is that it is a narrower skill set that is required for the people doing the installation. It makes it easier to hire, train \u2014 and ultimately it will make it easier for me to sell. It\u2019s not wrapped up in having to have people with extremely high levels of construction knowledge and skill.\nFrederick County is a relatively large area. I try not to be driving every day. I might have a day with several appointments where I inspect jobs, visit job sites or go on a sales call. A lot of days, I\u2019m working in the office doing estimates, project planning and purchasing \u2014 spending my time working on the computer. Today I did some administrative work first thing in the morning. My bookkeeper was here for a few hours. I did several projects that I\u2019m working on pricing for \u2014 one that I\u2019m working on a preliminary design for, one where I\u2019m doing some CAD work. I do my own CAD work. For refacing, it\u2019s not necessary to have CAD skills, but I\u2019ve been using Chief Architect since 1994. It\u2019s a skill I developed and have kept using. This is for an addition. It\u2019s a good skill to have. If you\u2019re going to get beyond refacing and get into doing full-blown kitchen remodels, you\u2019ll have to be able to generate some CAD drawings, or you won\u2019t be able to compete. I know Kitchen Solvers has somebody (Trey Anderson) who can work with you on the CAD.\nDo you own one unit, or several?\nI own Frederick County. When I bought, I bought the population base for my entire county. A lot of my sales have been in one particular community. Frederick is kind of an agrarian community. Frederick is the second-largest city in Maryland after Baltimore, and it is surrounded by little satellite towns. The city of Frederick itself is where a lot of my business has been. There are a lot of 40- to 45-year-old homes in the community. A lot of our work has been in 10- to 20-year-old homes.\nWhat is a secret to your success?\nEmployees have provided me great word of mouth. Over the years, I have gotten some good employees that were people who I got to know through involvement in the local Builders Association. My salesman used to work for one of my suppliers. He was my service representative, and I liked him, so when I needed to hire somebody, I hired him. Another staff member was with a builders supply company. They were looking for a job at the time that I was looking. I find carpenters through word of mouth. I find trade partners, like plumbers and electricians, through other employees. That\u2019s where I find the best workers for my company: Through trade associations and peer networking.\nIf you\u2019re going to advertise, start with the small local paper \u2014 not the countywide paper. We have a small neighborhood community newspaper that just covers my area. I want to get someone local as a customer before I spread out and try to get someone from just anywhere.\nI market back to people that we\u2019ve already done business for. We\u2019ve tried neighborhood marketing and haven\u2019t gotten a whole lot of response out of that. The last two years, nothing has been as effective as I would like. I tried a newsletter and got nothing. I tried radio advertising and got nothing. We tried online lead generation, and that was a waste of money.\nRemodeling is about relationships. It\u2019s a service you\u2019re providing to someone, and services tend to be more personal. One of the challenges is getting across to the customer, because they\u2019re focused on the product and the price, and they\u2019re inviting someone into their home to tear things up and make them better.\nMore than half of our volume of business comes from referrals. I get nothing from the Yellow Pages. I actually dropped our Yellow Pages ad. Actually, probably 75% of our business has come from referrals in the last few years.\nWould you recommend a Kitchen Solvers franchise to someone else?\nYes. I think they have a lot to offer: buying power, salability, a proven business system, estimating tools, good technology. When you\u2019re running your own business, you\u2019re on your own. As part of a franchise system, you can get on the phone and call Gerry or Trey or Bill Weber, our marketing guru. You can talk to Gerry about sales, and about strategy for selling. You can call Bill and have an ad put together. I get a lot of support that I wouldn\u2019t get outside of a franchise system. Plus, I am a dealer for a cabinet line. If I wasn\u2019t part of Kitchen Solvers, I\u2019d have to find the local area representative and buy cabinets from a local distributor rather than buying it direct. I have more leverage with my suppliers because I\u2019m part of a franchise. When I go to sell, there\u2019s going to be more value in a franchise that there would be in any self-named remodeling business. You also get a way to gauge your performance, to see how your business does compared to other franchises of similar size. Gerry has platinum sales training that you can go through. Other training and support, such as getting books set up and so forth \u2014 for someone new that\u2019s going to be important. If I had it to do all over again, getting into construction, I would do it as part of a franchise because it gives you a jumpstart. Knowing what I know now, starting from scratch, I would go with a specialty, and it would be Kitchen Solvers.",

        "raw_content": "Home > The Tax Law Blog > Criminal Tax Representation > Story Update: Rapper DMX Released From Prison After Serving Time for Tax Crimes\nMost of the criminal tax cases that we cover on our blog involve taxpayers with unfamiliar names, a reminder that the IRS goes after those they believe have violated the tax law, no matter how big or small. But a small handful of our stories involve those of pop culture fame that have found themselves on the wrong side of tax law. This is an update to a story that we wrote on back in 2017 and involves a famous rapper that was busted for tax evasion.\nAccording to multiple news outlets, Earl Simmons, better known as the rapper DMX, was released from federal prison last week after serving a year behind bars for tax fraud. Walking out of the Gilmer Federal Correctional Institution in Glenville, West Virginia, Simmons must still serve three years of supervised release but as long as he keeps his nose clean, will not return to prison for his tax crimes. Though, it almost ended a lot worse for Simmons.\nAt sentencing in 2017, prosecutors were pushing for upwards of five years in federal prison after Simmons pleaded guilty to one count of tax fraud. Tax authorities and prosecutors alleged that Simmons failed to pay taxes on a substantial amount of income from 2005 through 2016. As a part of their investigation, tax authorities discovered that Simmons had been receiving payments related to his music career through his agents\u2019 bank accounts and paid his expenses in cash, making it extremely difficult for the government to collect the tax he owed. The IRS estimated that they lost out on over $1.7 million of tax revenue as a result of Simmons\u2019 tax fraud and efforts to conceal his earnings.\nDepartment of Justice prosecutors thought this to be egregious and suggested the sentencing judge make an example out of Simmons. Lawyers for DMX resorted to playing one of Simmons\u2019 music videos from the 1990\u2019s in an attempt to demonstrate to the court that DMX had overcome a rough upbringing and although he had been arrested over 30 times in the past, he had made an effort to clean up his act in recent years. The strategy appears to have been effective.\nThis story is a prime example of the reality that the IRS and Department of Justice will go after those who have committed tax crimes regardless of status. If you find yourself receiving notice that your tax return has been chosen for examination or if you are the target of a criminal tax investigation, it is in your best interest to contact an experienced tax attorney as soon as possible.\nA criminal tax defense attorney who is also a CPA has the highly effective combination of tax technical knowledge and an in-depth understanding of criminal tax law, criminal procedure, rules of evidence, and constitutional law. A large majority of taxpayers falsely believe that they can talk their way out of an audit or an investigation. The sad truth is that attempting to negotiate or justify your tax noncompliance with revenue agents typically results in a worse outcome than if you had began your conversations with the IRS or state taxing authority with a seasoned tax attorney present.\nThe tax and accounting professionals at the Tax Law Offices of David W. Klasing have devoted their careers to assisting taxpayers navigate the oftentimes treacherous waters of tax compliance. From wage-earning employees under IRS examination to business owners being investigated by the state taxing authorities, our team of zealous advocates is standing by to help you develop a course of action that will focus on keeping your physical and financial freedom intact. Do not let the threat of an IRS audit or criminal investigation keep you up at night. Contact the Tax Law Offices of David W.

        "raw_content": "Harris Chain Lake Griffin\nLake Griffin is the last lake in the Harris Chain of Lakes. The lake level is controlled by two locks, one on Haines Creek and the other at the top of the lake at Moss Point near Highway 42. Lake Griffin is the most natural of the Harris Chain lakes. The lake is approximately 7 miles long with minimal development. Harbor Hills, a large lakefront golf course community is located on the west side of the lake. Harbor Shores has some canal homes, but no direct lakefront homesites.\nThe City of Leesburg, just south of the lake, has upscale waterfront homes on Beverley Point. The popular Leesburg Bike Festival draws thousands of Bikers annually. Leesburg has been a popular retirement destination for many years. Because of this fact, older homes and trailer parks are numerous on the lake. Real estate is generally more affordable on Lake Griffin than the rest of the Chain due to it's distance from Mount Dora and the fact that you must navigate the lock to boat to the rest of the chain.\nThe largest retirement community in the country, The Villages, is located in Lady Lake just north of the City of Leesburg. An interesting area on the lake is Treasure Island. This thin peninsula juts out into the lake about midway on the northeast side. Small lakefront homes line the Peninsula with very affordable prices. The large Peninsula Picciola Point is also an affordable alternative to high real estate prices in Mount Dora. Lake Griffin also has many waterfront canals leading into the main lake. Homes on the Lake Griffin canals are numerous and generally very competitively priced compared to the rest of the Harris Chain.\nLake Griffin is popular with bass and crappie fishermen. In recent years, the State Wildlife Agency has undertaken a large mouthed bass stocking project on the lake which has significantly improved this fishery. There is a public boat ramp on highway 441 at the south end of the lake at Herlong Park. The lake also has a few remaining fish camps and the Griffin State Park is also located in the area.\nFrom Lake Griffin it is possible to make a day run to Silver Springs through the Ocklawaha River through the Moss Bluff lock. The Harris Chain is part of the Ocklawaha River Basin draining the State northward through the St. John's River to Jacksonville. Because the river is narrow and makes many sharp turns in the Ocala National Forest, the trip is not safely navigated in anything larger than an outboard powered bass boat. Lake Griffin water clarity is normally stained and varies by season and the amount of annual rainfall. Lake Griffin contains large alligators, but they are normally not aggressive.",

        "raw_content": "\u201cMarlowe Would Be Proud\u201d: On \u201cThe Annotated Big Sleep\u201d\nI CAME LATE TO Raymond Chandler, and I don\u2019t know if it was in the best or worst possible way. I had my degree in literature, and I had read not a single word by Chandler. It was a rainy afternoon in London and I needed to kill a couple of hours, so I went to see a showing of The Big Sleep. The film I saw, however, wasn\u2019t the 1946 Bogart-Bacall classic (which I\u2019d only heard about), it was the 1978 remake directed by Michael Winner and set improbably, unconvincingly, in England. The film is universally despised. Roger Ebert said it \u201cfeels kind of embalmed,\u201d although plot-wise it\u2019s strangely faithful to the novel, and the cast is fantastic \u2014 Jimmy Stewart, Candy Clark, Richard Boone, Oliver Reed, with Robert Mitchum as Philip Marlowe. Mitchum has always seemed to me the perfect Marlowe, and far more believably tough and insolent than Humphrey Bogart; I just wish he\u2019d played the part 20 years earlier. He first played Marlowe in 1975 in Farewell, My Lovely, when he was in his late 50s; he was 60 by the time he made The Big Sleep, and he doesn\u2019t look a youthful 60.\nYou could argue that if Chandler\u2019s genius could shine through that dreadful adaptation, then it\u2019s pretty much unassailable. And shine through it did. I was hooked, and went back to the source. I immediately read The Big Sleep (1939), his first novel, and then the rest of the oeuvre, and I\u2019ve been increasingly hooked ever since. I consider myself an enthusiast rather than an expert or a scholar, although there\u2019s a shelf in my office heavy with Chandler-related volumes: the letters, the biographies, the notebooks, and various Los Angeles\u2013related items that include Raymond Chandler\u2019s Los Angeles (1987), Chandlertown: The Los Angeles of Philip Marlowe (1983), and Tailing Philip Marlowe: Three Tours of Los Angeles \u2014 Based on the Work of Raymond Chandler (2003). The Annotated Big Sleep, with a short but excellent foreword by Jonathan Lethem, will eventually join them.\nBut here\u2019s the question: when I read The Big Sleep for the first time (or subsequently, for that matter), was there much in there that I didn\u2019t understand? And I\u2019m not talking about plot matters such as who killed the chauffeur, or why the cute but borderline-insane murderess isn\u2019t prosecuted, but rather matters of fact and vocabulary.\nDid I feel the need to reach for the dictionary and look up \u201cswell\u201d when Marlowe says to Vivian Sternwood, \u201cI don\u2019t mind your showing me your legs. They\u2019re very swell legs\u201d? Did I wonder what a jerkin was, or a chiseller, or a bookplate? Was I puzzled by the terms \u201chot toddy\u201d and \u201cgot the wind up\u201d? Did the words parquetry, stucco, or croupier seem unfamiliar? After I\u2019d read that General Sternwood was propped up in \u201ca huge canopied bed like the one Henry the Eighth died in,\u201d did I feel the urge to check the date of Henry VIII\u2019s death?\nHonestly, I did not \u2014 but Owen Hill, Pamela Jackson, and Anthony Dean Rizzuto, the three editors of The Annotated Big Sleep, certainly think that all those things I\u2019ve listed are worthy of explanation, which, I think, raises the question of who reads The Big Sleep and who those annotators think reads The Big Sleep.\nPico Iyer, in his essay \u201cThe Mystery of Influence\u201d (2002), says of Marlowe, \u201cOf all the great figures of the twentieth century, he seems one of the most durable, in part because he travels so well and so widely.\u201d And he tells us that Haruki Murakami began his career by translating Chandler into kanji and katakana scripts. It\u2019s not hard to imagine that Japanese readers might find something of the noble, tarnished samurai in Marlowe, though what they make of a line like, \u201cShe has to blow and she\u2019s shatting on her uppers. She figures the peeper can get her some dough,\u201d is anybody\u2019s guess. Somehow they cope.\nThe fact is, it\u2019s rare, if ever, that we read a book and understand every single word, every literary allusion, every local or historical reference, just as we don\u2019t understand every single thing we encounter as we go about our lives. And, of course, with fiction it gets harder depending on the age of the work and our cultural distance from its milieu. In a piece on John Updike\u2019s Rabbit Is Rich (1981), Martin Amis writes, \u201cLike its predecessors, the novel is crammed with allusive topicalities; in a few years\u2019 time it will probably read like a Ben Jonson comedy.\u201d I imagine there may be readers of that essay who could use a little annotation explaining the nature of Ben Jonson\u2019s comedies.\nIf the common reader happily misses a few references, we tend to take it for granted that the best literary works will require explanations, glosses, and readers\u2019 guides. Many have read James Joyce\u2019s Ulysses (1922) with a map of Dublin, Ireland, and a copy of Ulysses Annotated: Notes for James Joyce\u2019s Ulysses (1988, by Don Gifford with Robert J. Seidman) close at hand. Joyce would have been delighted.\nSteven C. Weisenburger\u2019s A Gravity\u2019s Rainbow Companion: Sources and Contexts for Pynchon\u2019s Novel (1988) is a great help in understanding much abstruse material in Thomas Pynchon\u2019s 1973 masterwork; although, when I laid hands on the compendium (a good decade after I\u2019d first read the novel), I was thrilled to find that he\u2019d got various things wrong, including not knowing the English meaning of \u201cminge.\u201d And this is one of the joys of annotated volumes: seeing what the editors did and didn\u2019t explain.\nAnd it doesn\u2019t stop at high literature. There\u2019s a subgenre of annotation that seeks not to explain evident difficulties, but to show the complications in apparently uncomplicated texts. Martin Gardner is the boss here. Having annotated Lewis Carroll\u2019s Alice volumes (and declared Carroll to be sexually \u201cinnocent\u201d), he went on to annotate books by G. K. Chesterton, Samuel Taylor Coleridge\u2019s The Rime of the Ancient Mariner (1798), and Ernest Thayer\u2019s \u201cCasey at the Bat: A Ballad of the Republic \u2014 Sung in the Year 1888\u201d (1888). His publisher, W. W. Norton & Company, runs a list of annotated volumes that includes The Annotated Little Women (2015), The Annotated Peter Pan (2011), and The Annotated Wizard of Oz (2000). Do these works need annotation? The question is moot, since there\u2019s clearly a market and an audience; and if we\u2019ve learned anything in the last several decades, it\u2019s that scholarship can be applied to popular, or even low, culture, just as successfully as it can be applied to high art.\nRaymond Chandler would have understood the dichotomy and might have reveled in the contradictions as they applied to his own work. In writing for a pulp audience, he knew he was slumming, inhabiting the less respected and less examined districts of the city of words. But he was not modest about his talents or his ambitions. He\u2019d had an English classical education at London\u2019s Dulwich College, which contained Marlowe House. He knew that his hero\u2019s name might evoke Christopher Marlowe for some readers, but certainly not for all. The earliest version of Chandler\u2019s detective is named Mallory, as in Thomas Malory, the author of Le Morte d\u2019Arthur (1485), but maybe he came to think that was going too far.\nIn a 1949 letter to Hardwick Moseley, Chandler wrote, \u201cThe aim is not essentially different from the aim of Greek tragedy, but we are dealing with a public that is only semi-literate and we have to make an art of a language they can understand.\u201d His invocation of Grecian heights strikes me as going way too far.\nNo doubt the \u201csemi-literate\u201d public will not be rushing to read The Annotated Big Sleep, but for the rest of us, there\u2019s a huge amount to enjoy in the book. I found myself more intrigued by the background information than by the editors\u2019 close reading of the text, which sometimes feels like they\u2019re breathing over your shoulder and making arch remarks, telling you how to read (for example, \u201cCarmen is back to her default between the kitten and the tiger \u2014 for now\u201d), but no doubt some readers will feel the opposite way.\nSome of this background comes into the \u201cwho\u2019d have thought it?\u201d category. For instance, we\u2019re told that in the 1930s, Los Angeles had 300 casinos and over 40 newspapers; hard to say which of those numbers is more surprising. Information about the city\u2019s population and ethnic makeup is fascinating. I don\u2019t think many of us regard 1930s Hollywood as the center of Jewish life in Los Angeles. The book quotes the journalist Garet Garrett (not his birth name), who visited the city in 1930 and wrote,\nyou have to begin with the singular fact that in a population of a million and a quarter, every other person you see has been there less than five years. More than nine out of every ten you see have been there less than fifteen years.\nIn 1939, the Federal Writers\u2019 Project of the Works Progress Administration authored a book titled California: A Guide to the Golden State. In it, they called Los Angeles the \u201cfifth largest Mexican city in the world\u201d (a distinction that nowadays belongs to Chicago). We also learn that between 1920 and 1930, 30,000 Filipinos migrated to California. They were known as dandies and sharp dressers, which explains Marlowe\u2019s line to Carmen Sternwood that she\u2019s \u201c[c]ute as a Filipino on Saturday night.\u201d I guess this is a racial slur, but as these things go it seems quite gentle.\nThere are some revelations relating to Marlowe himself \u2014 details that are easy to miss or simply skim over. For instance, Marlowe\u2019s description of himself on the novel\u2019s first page, \u201cI was neat, clean, shaved and sober, and I didn\u2019t care who knew it,\u201d is army slang \u2014 \u201cneat, clean, shaved and sober\u201d means ready for inspection. Later, in a description of Marlowe\u2019s apartment, we read he has \u201can advertising calendar showing the Quints rolling around on a sky-blue floor, in pink dresses.\u201d I had never thought to wonder who the \u201cQuints\u201d were, but we\u2019re told these are the Dionne quintuplets, identical French-Canadian girls born in 1934, the first quintuplets to survive past infancy. A couple of them are still alive, if Wikipedia is to be believed.\nThere\u2019s also an interesting consideration of Marlowe\u2019s daily rate \u2014 $25 plus expenses, which some clients find a bit pricey. It\u2019s the equivalent of $400 in today\u2019s money, which sounds a tidy sum, although considering what Marlowe has to go through to earn his money, it\u2019s not altogether unreasonable.\nThe annotations make much of the geographical and topographical background to the novel, describing Laurel Canyon, the Pacific Coast Highway, Franklin Avenue, and noting landmarks such as the Sunset Towers and Bullocks on Wilshire. But as becomes obvious to anyone who\u2019s tried to walk in Marlowe\u2019s footsteps (something I did when I first started living in Los Angeles), one of Chandler\u2019s skills was to blend a detailed real city with one of his own invention. So yes, being told that Geiger\u2019s bookshop is on Hollywood Boulevard by the corner of Las Palmas seems utterly precise, but Stanley Rose, who had a bookstore at more or less that location, isn\u2019t much of a model for Geiger: you\u2019d find Rose hanging out in his store talking with Hollywood literati rather than taking nude photographs of drugged heiresses. At other times, Chandler simply made up the names of streets; Laverne Terrace and Alta Brea, for example, sound completely authentic, but you won\u2019t find them on any map.\nThe editors, inevitably, and reasonably enough, wade into the inscrutable and contested sexuality of Chandler and Marlowe. I\u2019ve never been sure whether Marlowe\u2019s homophobia (as Chandler wouldn\u2019t have called it) was his own, or Chandler\u2019s, or simply something that pulp readers would have expected from a tough guy detective. It\u2019s well known that quite a few people who met Chandler assumed he was gay, but that raises more questions than it answers, and there\u2019s certainly no evidence that he ever had any sexual relationships with men. Still, the annotations are interesting in themselves. They tell us that the \u201c1920s and early \u201930s saw no fewer than ten new terms for \u2018homosexual\u2019 recorded,\u201d including \u201cqueer.\u201d We also learn that, as a result of prohibition, gay and lesbian subcultures had become more accepted in select quarters, while still remaining hidden. Once you were breaking the law by drinking illegally in clubs and speakeasies, you were less likely to cut up rough about seeing some same sex couple and a drag act or two.\nThe editors also raise the possibility that when Vivian Sternwood, wearing a \u201cmannish shirt and tie,\u201d says to Marlowe, \u201cI was beginning to think perhaps you worked in bed, like Marcel Proust,\u201d she may be accusing him of being gay. I don\u2019t quite buy that, but then, I don\u2019t have to.\nI do buy, eagerly, the book\u2019s analysis of the instances where Chandler \u201ccannibalized\u201d his own early stories and incorporated them in the novel. They show, despite Clive James\u2019s insistence to the contrary, that Chandler\u2019s writing improved very rapidly indeed in the six years between the publication of his first short story, \u201cBlackmailers Don\u2019t Shoot\u201d (1933), and The Big Sleep (1939).\nThe book is illustrated with dozens of images, book and magazine covers, movie stills, maps, period photographs. These are well chosen and very useful. I wish some of them were bigger, especially the maps, and I wish some of those pulp covers were in color, but you can\u2019t have everything.\nFor what it\u2019s worth, I only found one error, maybe half an error. The book has Le Corbusier as sole designer of the chaise longue basculante: these days Charlotte Perriand is usually given her due as co-designer.\nThe book\u2019s bibliography is lengthy without being exhibitionistic, and the editors have even managed to track down a treatise on \u201cthe lost art of walking,\u201d by one Geoff Nicholson, that contains a short section about Chandler. Top-notch sleuthing.

E. Tarsney, of Detroit, Mich., for plaintiff in error.\nHarry C. Milligan, of Detroit, Mich., for defendant in error.\nBefore DENISON, DONAHUE, and KNAPPEN, Circuit Judges.\nDONAHUE, Circuit Judge.\nThe defendant in error, William Pratt, as guardian of Ernest Pratt, a minor, brought action to recover damages from the Detroit Taxicab & Transfer Company, for personal injuries sustained by Ernest Pratt on the 20th day of February, 1918. alleged to have been caused by the negligence of the Taxicab Company in the operation of one of its vehicles in the city of Detroit, Mich. At the time Ernest Pratt sustained the injuries complained of, he was six years of age. The jury returned a verdict in favor of plaintiff for $35,000. A motion for new trial was overruled, and judgment entered on the verdict.\nNo exceptions were taken to the admission of evidence or the charge of the court, nor is it now claimed that the evidence offered by the plaintiff does not sustain the averments of negligence.\nIt is insisted, however, that the court erred in overruling the motion of plaintiff in error to reduce the verdict or grant a new trial, for the reason, first, that there was no testimony supporting such verdict, in so far as it includes loss of earning power, and that in this respect the court erred in its charge to the jury that it might, as an element of damages, return a sum of money to compensate plaintiff for loss of earnings; second, that the verdict is excessive.\nThis court will not consider alleged errors in the charge to which no exceptions have been taken. Pennsylvania Ry. Co. v. Minds, 250 U.S. 368, 375, 39 S. Ct. 531, 63 L. Ed. 1039, and cases there cited.\nThis court has no authority to weigh the evidence, and for that reason it is not within its province to determine whether or not the verdict is excessive. That is a question for the trial court upon motion for a new trial, the granting or refusal of which is not assignable as error, unless it appears that the trial court, in overruling such a motion, was guilty of an abuse of discretion. \u00c6tna Ins. Co. v. Ward, 140 U.S. 76, 11 S. Ct. 720, 35 L. Ed. 371; New York, L. E. & W. R. Co. v. Winter, 143 U.S. 60, 75, 12 S. Ct. 356, 36 L. Ed. 71; C. & O. Ry. Co. v. Proffitt, 218 F. 23, 28, 134 C. C. A. 37.\nIt is clear from the record in this case that the trial court did not abuse its discretion in overruling this motion for a new trial, or in refusing to reduce the verdict.\nEvidence was offered on the part of the plaintiff tending to prove that the injuries to this boy were of such a serious nature that they will ultimately result in total blindness. It is claimed, however, on the part of the plaintiff in error, that no evidence was offered tending to prove the amount of loss of earnings which plaintiff's *194 ward otherwise would have received by reason of his earning ability after reaching the age of 21 years, and which he could be prevented from earning by reason of the injuries in question.\nA person injured by the negligence of another is entitled to an award for the future effect of his injury, the amount thereof to be estimated by the jury and included in its verdict. Washington & Georgetown Ry. v. Harmon's Adm'r, 147 U.S. 571, 584, 13 S. Ct. 557, 37 L. Ed. 284.\nIn estimating the loss of earnings that plaintiff's ward would sustain by reason of total blindness from and after he arrived at the age of 21 years, for and during his expectancy of life, the jurors would not be materially aided by opinion evidence, even if it were possible for any one to qualify as an expert on that subject. Any estimate thereof would be a mere matter of opinion, and no better than the judgment of the jurors who were fully advised of all the facts and circumstances upon which expert opinion evidence, if available, could be predicated. This matter is one that comes under the equal observation of men and women in the ordinary walks of life. It is the common observation of men that one who is totally blind is largely incapacitated from performing physical labor, and that many of the arts and sciences are practically closed to him. This jury was fully advised, by the evidence, of all facts upon which any one could base an opinion as to this item of damages, and for that reason it cannot be said that the verdict is not sustained by any evidence, merely because no witness was called to express an opinion as to the loss in dollars and cents that the plaintiff's ward would sustain by reason of the impairment of his earning capacity as a result of his injuries.

U. S. Atty., Scranton, Pa., for Secretary of the Interior.\n*694 Myron M. Moskowitz, Shamokin, Pa., for defendants.\nMUIR, District Judge.\nThe above matter is before the Court on a case stated. Both parties agree that there are no genuine issues of material fact and that a decision on a motion for summary judgment under F.R.Civ.P. 56 is appropriate. Both parties have filed such motions.\nEdward and Frederick Shingara, the Defendants, operate an underground coal mine located near Treverton, Northumberland County, Pennsylvania. They are, at this time, the only individuals who work the mine. Edward goes underground, while Frederick does the hoisting.\nOn September 17, 1975, in an attempted exercise of his authority under Subchapters I-III of the Federal Coal Mine Health and Safety Act of 1969, 30 U.S.C. \u00a7\u00a7 801-878, the Secretary of the Interior issued a so-called \"Order of Withdrawal\" on the Shingaras which requires them to remove and keep all individuals from their mine until an effective respirable dust program for its operation has been established. When the Shingaras continued to operate in contravention of this Order, the Secretary filed this action seeking injunctive relief.\nThe Shingara coal is sold primarily to Calvin V. Lenig of Shamokin, Pennsylvania who resells it, along with other coal which he has gathered, to Keystone Filler and Manufacturing Co., Inc. of Muncy, Pennsylvania and Mike E. Wallace of Sunbury, Pennsylvania. Keystone Filler combines the Shingara-Lenig coal with others in order to achieve a particular ash content, dries the mixture, and grinds it into a powder which is shipped to customers outside of Pennsylvania.\nIn the operation of their mine, the Shingara brothers use several pieces of equipment which, although purchased in Pennsylvania, were manufactured outside the Commonwealth. They also operate a truck which is insured by a multistate corporation through a Pennsylvania agent.\nThe Federal Coal Mine Health and Safety Act covers \"each coal mine, the products of which enter commerce, or the operation or products of which affect commerce . .\". 30 U.S.C. \u00a7 803. \"Commerce\" means \"trade, traffic, commerce, transportation, or communication among the several States, or between a place in a State and any place outside thereof, . . .\" 30 U.S.C. \u00a7 802(b). In enacting the statute, Congress intended to exercise its authority to regulate interstate commerce to \"the maximum extent feasible through legislation\". S.Rep. No. 1055, 89th Cong., 2d Sess. 1 (1966), U.S.Code Congressional and Administrative News, 89th Cong., 2d Sess., 2072. Since there is no challenge to the constitutionality of the language chosen by the draftsmen to delineate the scope of the Act, the only issue in this case is whether the activity carried on by the Shingara brothers falls within its coverage because their products either \"enter commerce\" or \"affect commerce\".\nThe Court is of the view that the Shingara coal clearly \"enters commerce\". Although the Shingaras part with their product a short distance from the mine, the coal indisputably leaves the Commmonwealth of Pennsylvania as an element of \"commerce\". The fact that it is mixed and ground with other coal prior to crossing state lines does not alter this conclusion.\nEven if it were determined that the Shingara coal does not \"enter commerce\" it must be concluded, under the extremely expansive interpretations given to the regulatory power of Congress, that the activity in question \"affects commerce\" and is thereby subject to the Act. Cf. Heart of Atlanta Motel v. U. S., 379 U.S. 241, 85 S. Ct. 348, 13 L. Ed. 2d 258 (1964); Katzenbach v. McClung, 379 U.S. 294, 85 S. Ct. 377, 13 L. Ed. 2d 290 (1964). Although the activity in question here may seem on first examination to be local, it is within the reach of Congress because of its economic effect on interstate commerce. See Beckman v. Mall, 317 U.S. 597, 63 S. Ct. 199, 87 L. Ed. 488 *695 (1942). The U.S. Supreme Court has held that wheat which is grown wholly for home consumption may be subjected to federal regulation because it supplies the personal needs of the grower which otherwise would be satisfied in the open market, Wickard v. Filburn, 317 U.S. 111, 63 S. Ct. 82, 87 L. Ed. 122 (1942). In the light of this Supreme Court case, the Shingara coal mining activity, which has an even more direct impact on the coal market, also \"affects commerce\" sufficiently to subject the mine from which it emanates to federal control.\nThe Shingaras dispute that their operation substantially affects interstate commerce and contend that the Act was not intended to encompass coal mines which have no employees. Given the Wickard wheat case cited above, the Court is obliged to reject the Shingaras' plausible position that their activity has no \"substantial\" effect on interstate commerce. Similarly, although it seems entirely rational that it would do so, the Act does not exempt mines which are owner-operated. Section 803 relates to \"each coal mine\" affecting commerce or placing products therein and is not limited by any other section.\nThe Shingaras place heavy reliance on Morton v. Bloom, 373 F. Supp. 797 (W.D.Pa. 1953), which found that the Act did not regulate a one-man mining operation which provided coal for the heating of residences in its vicinity. Assuming arguendo that Bloom's analysis is correct, the situation before this Court nevertheless involves activity which is more extended and has a much more direct effect on interstate commerce.\nIn addition to all of the foregoing, the Shingaras' purchase of several items of equipment and an insurance policy produced by out-of-state sources also brings them within the \"affecting commerce\" rubrique and exposes them to the Act. See Katzenbach v. McClung, 379 U.S. 294, 85 S. Ct. 377, 13 L. Ed. 2d 290 (1964); U. S. v. Dye Construction Co., 510 F.2d 78 (10th Cir. 1975); Von Solbrig Hospital, Inc. v. N.L.R.B., 465 F.2d 173 (7th Cir.1972).\nThe Court is of the view that the mining activities carried on by Edward and Frederick Shingara are subject to the provisions of the Federal Coal Mine Health & Safety Act. Consequently, summary judgment will be entered in favor of the Secretary.",

        "raw_content": "Can a 12 inch laptop be a netbook?\nThis is why I\u2019ve never been a fan of the word netbook. Call them Liliputers; call them cheap subnotebooks; call them what you will. But the computers I\u2019ve been most interested in for the last year or two have weighed about 3 pounds or less, had 10 inch or smaller screens, and cost around $500 or less.\nThe problem is that this category has caught on in such a big way that laptop makers can\u2019t help but release computers that don\u2019t really fall within the niche and call them netbooks anyway. After all, what\u2019s a \u201cnetbook\u201d but a marketing term made up by Intel to describe a computer that can be used to go online?\nAnyway, I\u2019m certainly intrigued by the form factor of the Dell Inspiron Mini 12 or the new Asus N20A. But no matter whether they have an Intel Atom CPU or a dual core chip from Intel or AMD, I have a hard time putting them in the same camp as an 8.9 inch ultraportable like the Acer Aspire One.\nYes, I know this isn\u2019t the first time I\u2019ve ranted on this topic. But today the first reviews started to pop up for the Inspiron Mini 12, and Asus officially unveiled the N20A and I just couldn\u2019t help myself. It probably won\u2019t be the last time I go off about this either. I\u2019m not saying there\u2019s no market for a cheap, light weight 12 inch notebook. I\u2019m just saying please stop calling it a netbook, or start calling netbooks something else.\nTo Asus\u2019 credit, the company isn\u2019t calling its N10 or N20A laptops netbooks. But that hasn\u2019t stopped a lot of bloggers and journalists from doing so.\nOh, and as for that Dell Inspiron Mini 12 review? Laptop Magazine says it has a better screen and keyboard than the Mini 9 (no surprises there), but says the performance is subpar. While most netbooks aren\u2019t exactly speed demons, Dell decided to go with Windows Vista and an Intel Atom Z530 Silverthorne processor for this notebook, instead of the Intel Atom N270 Diamondville CPU and Windows XP OS you would get with a Dell Inspiron Mini 9. And the Z530 is noticeably slower.\nAs I commented on your other post \u2013 I agree that a 12 inch laptop is not a netbook. I don\u2019t understand your aversion to the word itself, other than promoting the word made up for this site, but like it or not, the word has been adopted by many people who are interested in this kind of thing. To recap my thoughts from the other post, a netbook is: 1) Small \u2013 10\u2033 screen or smaller \u2013 if it\u2019s 10.2\u2033 round down, I\u2019m not going to be that picky. 2) Lightweight \u2013 under 3 pounds at least. The lighter the better. 3) Cheap \u2013 base model must start under $500US. 4) Form factor \u2013 notebook like \u2013 convertable tablet style also works. Clamshell, with keyboard, trackpad-touchscreen-nub-or-other-mouse-like-device, and screen built in. 5) Portable \u2013 this means battery powered and wifi. BlueTooth, WiMax, 3G, etc. are extra \u2013 or could possibly\u2026 Read more \u00bb\nAbout 7) above: I don\u2019t want to start a flaming war about this or anything, but as far as I\u2019m concerned, if someone finds a more minimal Linux distro or Win CE adequate for their surfing, email, office apps, and other needs, it won\u2019t bother me if they call their machine a netbook. Somehow it sort of fits in with the whole minimalist idea of netbooks. But this is all about semantics, and as long as we let them use it, they may not care what we call it.\nThere are reasons I add that caveat. 1) It goes along with the full Internet experience thing. One of the reasons cell phones don\u2019t offer the full internet is because they are crippled by their OS. If Adobe doesn\u2019t make a flash player for Symbian (which I don\u2019t think they do), then no Symbian phone will ever have the full internet. And whatever whizbang new gotta-have plug-in comes out next for the web, full desktop OSes will get them long before embedded operating systems do. (Silverlight, Air, Flash, JavaFX, Prism, Quicktime, Flex, etc.) 2) Along with that, a full internet experience these days means a lot more than just having Flash \u2013 most people have extensions and add-ons to their browsers on top of plug-ins. Things like Ad-Block, bookmark sharing, social networking tie-ins, StumbleUpon, etc. \u2013 being able to customize your browser is pretty standard fair to most web users.\u2026 Read more \u00bb\nThe term \u201cnetbook\u201d might call to mind an association with \u201cbook,\u201d and their size is pretty close to a common book size. I think I may remember someone mentioning this when the term was introduced by Intel. To me, that tends to point away from including 12 inch and bigger netbooks, unless you want to introduce terms like \u201ccoffee table netbook,\u201d which is what I\u2019m typing on right now \ud83d\ude42 (But I don\u2019t think that means we can\u2019t talk about the 12-inchers on the Liliputing site.) Off topic, but related to the above: In about the mid-1960s a variation on the ball-point pen was introduced with thinner, easier flowing ink, and, to distinguish it from the ball-point pen, they called it the \u201crolling-ball pen\u201d. . . doh! I think a subcourse in common sense or logic should be added to marketing curricula. Another example (semantics, not marketing) is the term\u2026 Read more \u00bb\nI too have an issue with the term \u201cnetbook\u201d is more with the inclusion of the word \u201cnet\u201d, which to me implies that it is somehow tethered or extremely integrated to the internet and to me, somewhat suggestive of what is termed cloud computing. It doesn\u2019t help much that there is a netbook called a cloudbook. The term I prefer is mininote. It obviously borrows from the term notebook and defines it as being smaller. the term netbook, however, makes no indication of the primary difference of the device to other portable computing devices, size.\nThe reason netbooks are tied to the word \u201cnet\u201d is because that\u2019s basically what they are good for \u2013 surfing the web. You don\u2019t render video on a netbook \u2013 you don\u2019t play high powered 3D games on a netbook \u2013 you don\u2019t even write a novel on a netbook (because it\u2019s not the best for typing). The screen is too small for media sharing (multiple people watching a video) and it\u2019s too big to be just for personal media playing (that\u2019s what PMPs like the iPod are for). Plus, if media were it\u2019s main purpose, don\u2019t you think a DVD drive would be useful? The marketing concept behind the netbook is that it is a 2nd portable computer for when you just want to grab something and go \u2013 just in case you need to check your email, update your social networks, watch some YouTube, or read some blogs.\u2026 Read more \u00bb\nThe idea is in the name itself. Nitpicking over the form of the netbook is to overlook the purpose that it is supposed to serve. The Dell Mini 12 is not meant to be more than just a portable laptop for surfing the web. As such, it\u2019s a netbook.\nIt\u2019s like the debate over whether \u2018marriage\u2019 is the same thing as \u2018civil union.\u2019 They serve the function, but society refuses to equate them. Same old, same old.\nAfaic, if it\u2019s got a screen bigger than 10\u2033, it\u2019s not a netbook. If it costs more than US $600, it\u2019s not a netbook. And if it weighs more than 3 lbs, it\u2019s just not a netbook. Personally, I would like to think that eventually the category will be limited to 1 kilo, a size, when closed, of 10\u2033 x 8\u2033 x 1\u2033 or less, a battery life of 4 hrs or more, and some standard of wireless performance near or above what is now available. And some standard for ruggedization. A standard for water resistance. Perhaps a minimum drop-safe rating and a shock-mounted drive. Those are specs that make for a mobile device that will do the things that we think of a netbook as being meant to do. Among other things, I\u2019m pretty sure that by the end of next year we\u2019ll start seeing mobile devices with seriously\u2026 Read more \u00bb\nYou guys are funny. It\u2019s all just semantics.\nSemantics perhaps. But if the name isn\u2019t defined and defended then manufacturers will simply distort the name to fit anything they make just to be able to cash in on the latest tech wave.\nI agree with most of the comments above. 10\u2033 is indeed the upper limit for netbook screen sizes. I have to take issue though with the $500 USD \u201cstarting price\u201d. That is simply too expensive to the technology included. I see $500 as the upper limit for a fully decked-out netbook and prices go down from there.\nAfter the Asus EeePC 701 was released, newer models with higher specs were released with higher prices. In an attempt to avoid a \u201crace to the bottom\u201d makers just kept on the feature creep march in an attempt to increase profit margins.\nKeep \u2019em lean and mean and the price closer to $200.\nInteresting. And just who do you think will \u201cdefine and defend\u201d the netbook name?\nAbsolutely. A 12 inch computer that was priced at $200 and weighs 2 lbs would not be a netbook according to them.\nYes. 12 inch screen still small and light, and if it\u2019s done in the right spirit (small and light) as this appears to be then it\u2019s worthy of the netbook tag. I think it\u2019s a great idea. Better than spending a lifetime scrolling up and scrolling down \u2019cause the screen is just that little bit too small. :S\nI\u2019ve been waiting for an EEE PC with a 12inch screen. Please ASUS give us a usable screen. Ah well, hopefully when the touchscreens come in 2009. \ud83d\ude00\nI think the netbook needs to be charaterized by size, weight and price. At this time even with a thin bezel around the screen and keybaord a computer with a 12\u2033 screen is too big, but only by 0.7 or 1.0 inch at most. And, really that is what we are talking about an inch. Do we really want to say a case that is 11 inches instead of 10 means it not an netbook? We can, but people will roll their eyes at us. I can see where 12\u2033 will end up as classified as a Netbook. We live in a world where people carry around laptops with 17\u2033 screens, a return of the luggable computer I would never happen again. A computer with a 12\u2033 screen does appear very small to most people used to 15\u2033 screens on their laptops.

The laws of linguistics apply, and unfortunately, \u201ccorrectness\u201d will finally be determined by the term that\u2019s in widest use by the most people. If we can help keep marketing influences from diluting or altering or deliberately confusing the definitions for nefarious reasons, it\u2019ll be a good thing, IMHO.\nOh yes, and how do I think we\u2019re going to help? Good question. If enough blogs and forums subject products, names, policies, etc, to public ridicule, it could trickle up in some cases. Sometimes manufacturers even conduct polls to try to find out what people want before designing products, and then there\u2019s always the power of boycott. I think Vista is having a rather short run, in spite of the fact that some might say MS is among the more stubborn and unresponsive corporations.\nOn the other hand, I\u2019d have to admit that Jerry Shen probably wouldn\u2019t change the eeePC keyboard if you kidnapped his grandmother \ud83d\ude42\nDell\u2019s Highly Anticipated 12 Inch Netbook Arrives.

        "raw_content": "Title: Stygian (Dark-Hunter, #29)\nLet me start this by saying that I do talk about some specific plot points in this review. I do not spoil anything but if you want to walk into this story completely blind than this review is not for you. I tried to keep it as simple as possible while reviewing but as you all know, with the stories being so intricate its hard not to spoil anything so I had to be a wee bit vague. I tried!!!\nAlso, Kenyon\u2019s books need to be read in order!!! If you haven\u2019t read the first 28 books you cannot just pick this one up and start the series. It just won\u2019t work. They like to say you can read these books out of order but you really can\u2019t.\nStygian is a lot like Acheron and Styxx. Kenyon gives us the back story to who Urian is- how he came to be the man we\u2019ve all found a soft spot for. I loved the first 80% of this book (I know the percentages because I read it on my kindle). It was so interesting seeing Urian and his brothers and sister grow up- the dynamic, the drama, the fights. Diamons have always been the bad guys, the ones that go bump in the night, but as Kenyon does so masterfully, she turns everything we thought we knew on its head. It truly is amazing the way Kenyon can make you sympathize with the bad guys so easily (remember reading Styxx\u2019s book?). Being able to see another side of Urian was the best part of this book. I was especially fond of watching Phoebe and Urian grow as a couple. Which was something we didn\u2019t get to see much of in the other books. Urian has been a favorite character of mine for a long time now and this book just made me love him more.\nThis book does revisit some of the major things that have happened in past books, especially Phoebe\u2019s death and Styxx and Bethany coming back into Urian\u2019s life. These repeats I was fine with. It refreshed my memory and it was actually nice to get Urian\u2019s perspective. However, after getting past that and the first 80% we head into Dragon territory and we know how that goes. The past 4 books (Son of No One, Dragonbane, Dragonmark, and Dragonsworn) have been a little rough- they were confusing and repeated plot lines. I was excited about Stygian because I thought we were finally moving away from that, however, we get a little bit of the dragon confusion at the end of this book. It was hard to get through and kind of brought the book down from being a five star read for me. I think that entire section could have been skipped or at least shortened because the end (after the dragons) felt rushed and was over way before I thought it should have been. I would have preferred to see the ending (which I will not spoil so this will be a little confusing) more detailed and have more interaction between Urian and some of the lead characters.\nIf the book had less of the dragons and had been a little more flushed out at the end, it definitely would have been a five star read! Although, the epilogue has me so excited for the next book in the series!!!! Like super excited!!! Bring on more Dark-Hunters!!! Even though the last few books have been a little, shall we say off, Stygian gives me hope that the rough patch is over and a new and brighter horizon is in sight!\nKenyon will always be an automatic buy for me. Even with the rough patch. She is just such a master story teller. She weaves such intricate tales that bring you to your knees. It\u2019s hard not to get caught up in the mythology and love. This book wasn\u2019t perfect but it was still pretty amazing! I got to see the writing I fell in love with once again with this book. I love this series and I hope it never ends! Ever!!!",

        "raw_content": "Nicholas Metheny,University of Michigan\nRob Stephenson,University of Michigan\nFirst published online: March 27, 2018 DOI: https://doi.org/10.1363/43e4917\nIntimate partner violence (IPV) is associated with negative physical and mental health outcomes. Antenatal care can act as a link to IPV services, but experiencing IPV may be associated with reduced uptake of antenatal care, an issue that has received little attention from researchers.\nA scoping review was conducted to synthesize quantitative research on IPV and uptake of antenatal care in low-resource settings. Keyword searches of PubMed and other databases and snowball searches of reference lists were conducted to identify articles published in 2005\u20132015 that measured one or more types of IPV (physical, sexual or emotional) or controlling behavior and assessed the relationship of such abuse with use of antenatal care. For each identified article, key characteristics and findings were abstracted, and study quality was assessed.\nSixteen articles, representing 10 low- and middle-income countries, met the inclusion criteria. Most studies were of medium-to-high quality but low rigor, reflecting the abundance of cross-sectional studies in the literature. In all 16 studies, IPV was negatively associated with initiation of antenatal care, number of visits or use of a skilled provider. Analyses revealed reduced odds of antenatal care use among women who had experienced IPV (odds ratios, 0.5\u20130.8) and elevated odds of antenatal care use among women who had not experienced IPV or of nonuse among women who had experienced IPV (1.2\u20134.1).\nWomen in low-resource settings who experience IPV have a reduced likelihood of obtaining optimal antenatal care and may benefit from interventions to mitigate barriers to care.\nNicholas Metheny is a doctoral candidate and Rob Stephenson is professor, Department of Health Behavior and Biological Sciences, School of Nursing, and the Center for Sexuality and Health Disparities, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI, USA.\nfr00118.pdf",

This fair is a part of a larger picture called The Hope for Mental Health Initiative.\nThe purpose is to help eliminate the stigma attached to mental illness and to educate the community in how to deal with things such as, suicide prevention, drug addiction, PTSD, schizophrenia, depression and other mental illness\u2019. Mainly though, it is being established to reach out to those who are afflicted with these many issues and to help guide them through the myriad of health services, insurance issues, state laws and rabbit trails. It is time to join together, not only in the Christian community but also in the private sector to educate people and to expose the awesome resources available in our county.\nI want to give a shout out to the many vendors, panelists, and speakers who participated in the inaugural HopeFest Health and Wellness Fair. Thank you to the many area leaders, such as Congresswoman Barbara Comstock, Loudoun County Sheriff Mike Chapman, County Chair Phyllis Randall and Supervisor Geary Higgins for lending their insight, support and time to this event. Although the temperatures reached the high \u201990s, there were still many who came to see the vast services that Loudoun County provides to those in need. To the over 70 volunteers who spent the day making this a success, including the J.R.O.T.C of Loudoun County High School, Boy Scouts of America Pack 982, and several area churches. Words cannot express my gratitude.\nThis is just the beginning. There is much work to be done and my prayer is that this will spread all over Loudoun County. Keep your eyes out for other seminars, teachings, trainings and support groups at Leesburg Community Church (leesburgcc.org/hope) throughout the year and in other churches and community facilities in Loudoun County.\nThank you all again for your help. We will see you next year for HopeFest 2017.\nDoug Wall, Worship Pastor\nLeesburg Community Church\n\u2190 Stewardship Day Planned at Blue Ridge Regional Park\nLetter: Geary M.

        "raw_content": "Encountering Peace: From Jerusalem will come hope!\nA light show at the Friends of Zion Museum.. (photo credit:\" Courtesy)\nYerushalayim-Al Quds presents a challenge to all Jerusalemites and an opportunity to save Jerusalem.\nJerusalem is like a mosaic with many pieces that when complete make an outstanding picture. When a piece of the mosaic is missing, the wholeness is destroyed and the focus is on what is missing.\nThe pieces of Jerusalem are its many peoples, ethnic groups, religions, communities, neighborhoods, cultures, traditions, smells, tastes, alleyways, churches, mosques and synagogues. Without these many pieces, Jerusalem would not be Jerusalem.\nThis diversity in Jerusalem is what I have always loved most about the city I have chosen to be my home, above all others. I celebrate this diversity and have worked over many years to help others to see the blessing of diversity that provides Jerusalem with the possibility of being the most special city in the world \u2013 the place that could be the global capital of understanding and peace. In modern times, Jerusalem has not come close to meeting its potential. Jerusalem has become the focal point and the core of the Israeli- Palestinian conflict. The more that Jerusalem is held or thought of as the possession of only one side of the conflict, the further it moves away from reaching its importance and its potential.\nNearly 40% percent of Jerusalem\u2019s residents are Palestinians.\nThey have never recognized Jerusalem as a united city under Israel\u2019s sovereignty. They consider east Jerusalem occupied territory. They have never been treated by Israel as belonging to the city and belonging in the city. The Palestinian parts of Jerusalem are the poorest parts, disadvantaged in every way imaginable, severely discriminated against in the allocation of resources and services. In the Palestinian parts of Jerusalem, there are no zoning plans, building permits are almost impossible to receive. There is an immediate need for more than 2,000 classrooms for Palestinians in Jerusalem. There are not enough social workers, opens spaces, parks, sidewalks, or any other municipal services. The only really noticeable \u201cimprovement\u201d in municipal services for Palestinians over the past years is the number of home demolitions.\nPalestinians in Jerusalem are constantly at risk of losing their \u201cright\u201d to live in the city under Israeli law.\nProperties owned by Jews prior to 1948 and lived in by Palestinians since are being claimed by Jewish settler associations claiming to represent the pre-1948 owners, making tens of Palestinian families homeless \u2013 and that number may go into the hundreds.\nPalestinian owners of properties in west Jerusalem from before 1948 do not have the equal right to reclaim their properties in Talbiyeh, Katamon, Baka, Musrara and more. Now there are even plans to remove Kafr Aqab and the Shuafat refugee camp from within the Jerusalem municipal borders, meaning the over 100,000 Palestinians living there will lose their status as Jerusalem residents.\nPalestinians in Jerusalem did not ask to become Israelis. Israel conquered them in 1967 and then declared their areas under Israeli sovereignty and issued them permits to live in Israel under the Law of Entry into the State of Israel. Since then they have Jerusalem resident identity cards and they pay taxes to the Jerusalem municipality.\nBecause of the non-recognition of Israel\u2019s sovereignty over east Jerusalem, Palestinians have so far chosen not to participate in Jerusalem\u2019s municipal elections.\nThe right to participate in municipal elections is not connected to citizenship and goes back to the times of the British Mandate. Palestinians have been politically invisible in Jerusalem and not only are they losing Jerusalem, the chances of creating a shared city are disappearing.\nWithout finding the way to share Jerusalem, there will never be peace between Israel and Palestine. Just as Jerusalem is the center of the conflict, Jerusalem is also the center of any future peace. The official position of the Palestinians is that west Jerusalem is the capital of Israel and east Jerusalem is the capital of Palestine. Two capitals in Jerusalem \u2013 one open, physically undivided city is the foundation of any future Israeli-Palestinian peace.\nUS President Donald Trump\u2019s unilateral recognition of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel and failure to mention that it is also the capital of Palestine has managed to sidetrack the Palestinian leadership from the real issues in Jerusalem \u2013 the rights of the people living in the city. Trump\u2019s recognition is insignificant \u2013 it changes nothing in reality. Trump\u2019s declaring that he removed Jerusalem from the table is equally insignificant; without Jerusalem there is no table. The people of Jerusalem \u2013 all of the people of Jerusalem \u2013 need to focus on saving Jerusalem. Our challenge is to raise Jerusalem to meet its potential \u2013 that means inclusion, participation, celebration of diversity and standing up for each other\u2019s rights in Jerusalem.\nThis year on October 30, in the Jerusalem municipal elections, for the first time in history a joint Palestinian- Israeli list will run for the city council. Although the idea of a joint Palestinian-Israeli list for Jerusalem\u2019s city council has been with me for more than two decades, its time has now arrived. Yerushalayim-Al Quds will be headed by Aziz Abu Sarah, a Palestinian activist, entrepreneur and peace-builder, together with myself.\nWe have only just begun to work and even prior to a formal launch, tens of Palestinians and Israelis have already approached us to join. It is clear that our joint list will be composed of 50% Palestinians (Aziz will lead the list) and 50% Israelis. Women will be represented equally on both sides. The list will include social and political activists from all over Jerusalem \u2013 from Jerusalem\u2019s social and economic peripheries, religious groups, including the ultra-Orthodox.\nYerushalayim-Al Quds can be the surprise of the elections and the best thing that has happened in Jerusalem and for Jerusalem. Yerushalayim-Al Quds will create the shared Jerusalem that celebrates the diversity and recognizes each other as belonging in Jerusalem and to Jerusalem.

        "raw_content": "Egyptian beats favourites Dimitrios Bakochristos and Bruno Carra\nTaha Abdelmajid was the surprising winner on the opening day of the 10th Fazza World Para Powerlifting World Cup in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, on Friday (8 February).\nEgypt\u00b4s London 2012 bronze medallist cleared the bar at 166kg in the men\u00b4s up to 54kg, same as Greece\u00b4s Rio 2016 bronze medallist Dimitrios Bakochristos. But Abdelmajid triumphed due to a lower body weight (53.04 vs. 53.20).\nBrazil\u00b4s Parapan American silver medallist Bruno Carra was another strong candidate for gold but had to settle for bronze after lifting 161kg.\nThe other male event contested in the day was the up to 49kg, with two-time Paralympic silver medallist Omar Qarada coming on top. Jordan\u00b4s Asia-Oceania reigning champion maintained his stronghold from the first attempt when he lifted 165kg, enough to bring him the title.\nHe was far ahead of Azerbaijan\u00b4s Parvin Mammadov and Brazil\u2019s Joao Maria Franca Junior who settled on 145 kg and 144kg, respectively.\n\u201cThis gold has set the tone for the rest of the year. This year, we have the World Championships and doing well there will be one of my goals,\u201d Qarada said after his win.\nAnother victory for Baddour\nSyrian Noura Baddour won the Fazza World Cup title for a third consecutive time in the women\u2019s up to 41kg thanks to an 82kg lift. \u201cThis has been a special event for me. I missed out on gold in Rio 2016 and that still hurts. Wins like this one sooth the pain, a bit.\n\u201cI have trained very hard for this medal. Despite the hardships, when I was forced to train at home, I never gave up. It rather gave me the push to train harder. This is a boost for my preparations for Tokyo 2020.\u201d\nAlgeria\u00b4s 34-year-old Samira Guerioua (78kg) ended second while 15-year-old Lara Aparecida de Lima (73kg) proved to be one of Brazil\u00b4s most promising powerlifting stars by collecting bronze.\nHer coach Wavarton Santos said: \u201cShe (Lara) has a very good metabolism. And that helps her maintain her weight category despite the fact that her strength is improving. We have high hopes from her in the upcoming Paralympics.\u201d",

        "title": "Five Giant Bunny Rabbits",
        "raw_content": "Rabbit Pet Care\nFive Giant Bunny Rabbits\nRabbits are not all bred to be equal -- in size, that is. Some are bred to be small and cute, and others, well, they are bred to be giant. Not a Harvey size giant (you know, the six-foot, three-and-one-half-inch tall invisible rabbit that used to keep James Stewart company in the 1950s eponymous film), but they do grow to be much bigger than regular-sized rabbits.\nHere\u2019s a little information about five of the most popular giant rabbit breeds.\nThe Giant Angora is a big critter. This bunny weighs in at around 9 pounds and is the largest of the angora variety. A very fluffy bunny with a wool undercoat, it needs intense daily grooming. Hope you've got that brush handy. The Giant Angora is also very gentle, so it is great around kids.\nThe British Giant is rarely seen outside of the U.K. But this rabbit is big, starting at 12.5 pounds. It has a kind and sweet personality, the type you\u2019d definitely take home to grandma. But because of its size, it needs plenty of room. No one wants a cramped rabbit. It\u2019s just not right. The British Giant also comes in different colors, so you can choose one to match your decor.\nThe Checkered Giant weighs in at around 11 pounds and is named after its peculiar black and blue spotted coat. This rabbit is especially active, so be prepared to provide lots of room for it to move about in. It\u2019s great for hours of playtime, too.\nThe Giant Chinchilla is not a larger version of the Andean rodent, but a cross between the Flemish Giant rabbit and regular Chinchilla breeds. It weighs about 12 to 14 pounds and is frequently sold commercially for its meat. No word on the quality or toughness of the meat, but remember, you're looking for a pet and not dinner.\nThe Flemish Giant. This bunny may tip the scales anywhere between 13 and 14 pounds. It has even been known to reach 22 pounds or more, which would probably make it a heavy weight fighter in the World Rabbit Boxing Association, if there actually were such an association. Here's what makes the Flemish Giant an excellent pet: it is very laid back, more dog-like than rabbit; it comes in various colors, including black, blue, fawn, gray and white; and it is one of the oldest recognized rabbit breeds. It's like owning a humongous, long-eared piece of the past. Because of its temperament, the Flemish Giant is also well suited for a family with kids.\nSo now that you know a little more about the various giant bunny breeds available for purchase, there is only one question you should ask yourself when picking one out: How big is too big?",

        "raw_content": "CJ: Native courts should be on par with civil and shariah courts\nChief Judge Richard Malanjum says young lawyers to take up public interest cases on behalf of indigenous people.\nKOTA KINABALU: Chief Justice Richard Malanjum today suggested that the status of native courts be raised to be on the same level as civil and shariah courts.\nIn suggesting that the indigenous native courts be elevated to the same level as that of the shariah and civil courts, he said: \u201cPeople will worry, saying it means there will be three systems.\n\u201cBut not to worry because they (indigenous courts) deal with personal laws, more on native customary rights (NCR).\u201d\nHe said more often than not when a case was transferred from the native courts to the civil courts, the judges would overrule the earlier judgment simply because they did not understand native laws.\n\u201cThe NCR used to be respected as you can quite easily win a claim (on a land).\n\u201cBut now when you read the law reports, maybe only one or two out of 10 cases may succeed.\n\u201cAnd the saddest part is these cases are not heard by the natives themselves.\n\u201cIt will go through the civil court, and who sits there? Some judges who may be foreign to the NCR or native laws and they will apply their civil law knowledge,\u201d he said when presenting his plenary paper during the Borneo Rainforest Law Conference 2019 here today.\nMalanjum said that was among the reasons for the unhappiness among indigenous people.\nHe said that\u2019s why they claim they have not been given the right access to justice.\n\u201cFor the indigenous people, they hear stories from ancestors, which is oral evidence, but in civil law that is hearsay. But to indigenous people, that is credible evidence. If an indigenous judge is hearing the case, he might understand.\n\u201cThat\u2019s why our civil court judges should first understand the native land system instead of judging it from the prism of civil law.\u201d\nHe hoped one day land claims get reverted to the indigenous courts.\n\u201cTo me, it should not go through the civil law system. One way of doing that is to empower indigenous courts so they can hear matters pertaining to indigenous land,\u201d he said.\nHandling cases pro-bono\nMalanjum also called on young lawyers to take up public interest litigation cases on behalf of indigenous people.\nHe lamented that only a few lawyers were willing to defend cases involving indigenous people, more so on a pro-bono basis.\nHe said this was among the reasons indigenous people had been left behind compared with other communities.\n\u201cThis is because their voices have hardly been heard. We, the lawyers, should be blamed for this, especially in this part of the world.\n\u201cHow many of us have taken up a public interest litigation (PIL) case where you fight for the indigenous people pro bono? Only a handful.\n\u201cIt is through PIL that the voices of the voiceless indigenous people can be heard.\n\u201cSo our lawyers, especially the young ones, please think about it. Go for PIL to help the indigenous people.\u201d\nFor example, he said he found a group that needed such help during a mobile court trip to a remote village in Sabah\u2019s Long Pasia, which is a short distance from Kalimantan, Indonesia, recently.\n\u201cThere are quite a number of elderly people there, in their 70s or 80s, who were soldiers during the Indonesia-Malaysia Confrontation period.\n\u201cThey fought for Malaysia, being the local police in the frontlines. Yet, many of them are still not citizens of this country. Why? Because of this, their children are also equally not citizens.\n\u201cWho is speaking up for them? We\u2019ve already been independent for 61 years. Why were these people left out? If not for them, we may not be where we are today,\u201d Malanjum said, adding non-citizens faced many disadvantages, such as high medical fees.\nHe said another setback to the indigenous struggle was that PIL was only an elective subject in law schools.\n\u201cIt\u2019s not made mandatory and because of that, not many law graduates know its importance,\u201d he added.\nMalanjum also said poor leadership, including of elected representatives, had worsened the plight of indigenous people.\n\u201cAfter the election, the elected representatives are nowhere to be seen, giving many excuses why they couldn\u2019t visit.\n\u201cWorst thing is that when they come to visit, they want to be adored,\u201d he said, adding many indigenous people were prone to exploitation because of poverty.\nTags: Civil, CJ, courts, native, par, shariah",

        "title": "Julian Rowlands, bandoneon player \u2013 Meet the Artist",
        "raw_content": "Julian Rowlands, bandoneon player\nPosted by The Cross-Eyed Pianist on December 2, 2017 November 2, 2017\nWho or what inspired you to take up the bandoneon, and pursue a career in music?\nI recall at the age of about five jumping up and down on my bed playing a kazoo, while simultaneously waving my arms around like a conductor. I think that is pretty much where I have been ever since \u2013 addicted to the jouissance of music without a hugely coherent plan as to how I should pursue it! The bandoneon came a lot later. I studied violin and piano, and also viola, and read music at university. My parents weren\u2019t particularly in favour of me pursuing a career in music so university was a bit of a compromise, being an academic rather than a performance course. I also couldn\u2019t make my mind up whether I wanted to be a string player or a pianist \u2013 I liked the constant expressive control of a bowed instrument but also the polyphonic capability of keyboards. When I became aware of the existence of the bandoneon I realised I could have both those things at the same time. Bandoneon was the instrument I had been looking for all along but it didn\u2019t exist in the UK when I was growing up.\nHugo Victor Villena was the person who showed me what the bandoneon could do and inspired me to take it up, not just because of his exquisite playing but also because of a generosity of spirit that permeates his musicianship and his teaching. I didn\u2019t have any doubt as to whom I would approach for lessons when I decided to seriously study the instrument.\nI didn\u2019t have much idea what I was doing when I was at university but in hindsight the emphasis on developing theoretical skills through stylistic composition was an invaluable basis for a career where a lot of my work has involved transcription and arrangement to create my repertoire. I am also one of those musicians who uses analysis as a tool to support interpretation and I think the composer Eric Graebner had a big influence on me with his approach to analysis that brought a wonderfully na\u00efve lack of preconceptions and a freedom of thought.\nI think I learn from all of the wonderful musicians I work with; as the psalms say, \u201cMikol melamdai hiskalti\u201d \u2013 I have gained understanding from all my teachers. I also believe we can learn an immense amount from musicians of the past now that we have unprecedented access to archive recordings and especially film. A few days ago, during a rehearsal, we playing the great tango Chique, in a version from the orchestra of Osvaldo Pugliese. Afterwards the band and the dancers we were working with asked me what I was doing \u2013 I had played the piece completely differently to what we usually do. I realised that a few days before I had watched a youtube video of An\u00edbal Troilo \u2013 the mentor of Piazzolla \u2013 playing the piece. At the time I had thought \u201cthis is a great version, but we already have a version that we play\u201d and I forgot about it. But then in the rehearsal it had subconsciously taken over my playing \u2013 I had inadvertently channelled \u201cPichuco\u201d Troilo! I had to snap out of it for the gig. At other times I have more consciously used this technique of channeling \u2013 imagining oneself into the state of mind of an admired musician, and I think it is a great way to transcend ones own habits and move into a different plane of performance. But \u201cPichuco\u201d was described as playing his solos as if he was falling asleep, the opposite of the energy that was required for that particular performance!\nI think the biggest challenge has been finding techniques and strategies to deal with the mental pressure of performing in a professional schedule. There are certainly other challenges, such as the physical problems \u2013 strains and injuries \u2013 that most musicians have from time to time, and the challenge of approaching the preparation of passages that initially seem impossible to play. But behind all this is the necessity to develop a higher level of concentration, which means an ability to negotiate distraction, and ways to cope with non-optimal outcomes \u2013 the sort of mortifying failures that can sometimes trip us up because we are human and fallible. My experience is that mindfulness meditation has been very beneficial in mitigating stress and improving brain function in performance situations, and there is some research that backs it up, which I think is very important. Nowadays I would always choose to go with evidence based practices because that guarantees a better probability that I am devoting time and energy to something that will work. I also think that the more we can learn about the psychology of performance, the better able we are to manage ourselves. Noa Kageyama\u2019s Bulletproof Musician blog is a great resource for information on the latest research. But there\u2019s always a certain mystery about the whole business, no matter how scientific we are.\nI\u2019m not sure pride is a huge part of what I feel about my work. It\u2019s great to get external recognition from other musicians and from good reviews, and there\u2019s definitely a huge buzz in doing a high profile performance. But what gives me the most satisfaction is having what I would call a \u201cgood gig\u201d, by which I mean a performance where everything flowed and I was just in the music and listening to my colleagues. It\u2019s a quiet satisfaction and quite personal, but getting there is always the goal.\nSome of Piazzolla\u2019s music. This is repertoire that one should respect like a mountaineer respects a mountain. I think it takes a lot of time to get inside it, especially because it is not simply a matter of interpreting a text, but of listening to his recordings, understanding how they work, and understanding the trajectory of his interpretations as they developed. And in my opinion you can\u2019t really understand Piazzolla qua Piazzolla unless you have a deep knowledge of the tango music that came before and its performance practises. Playing Milonga del Angel is always a journey that takes me to places that I can\u2019t anticipate. It\u2019s an extraordinary piece. I\u2019ve played it hundreds of times in a way that\u2019s very close to how Piazzolla did it. I think I may have reached the point where I can take a much freer approach to it, but I wouldn\u2019t want to rush that. Playing my own compositions is also always a special experience and something that I am now doing more of.\nQuite a lot of repertoire is determined in collaboration with dancers with whom I work. Then I will also choose some pieces from the tango repertoire that fascinate me, and I also try to introduce some new compositions by myself. And colleagues also bring works that they want to do.\nSome halls are like a dream, you just put your notes out there and the space does all the work. The Sheldonian Theatre is one such special place \u2013 they don\u2019t build \u2019em like that any more! And Snape Maltings, Wigmore Hall \u2026 St Georges Bristol has a particularly good sound on stage.\nIt\u2019s not a specific concert, but more the memory that I cultivate of when it has gone right, flow has been achieved, and everyone is happy on stage an in the auditorium.\nDoing the thing in the previous question! But getting paid is also important!\nLove your process. It may be good to have career goals or at least intentions, but life has a way of completely changing what we do at random. As they say in Yiddish, \u201ca mentsh tracht un Got Lacht\u201d \u2013 \u201cwhen a man makes plans, God laughs\u201d. So please love what you are doing now and do now what you love.\nStill playing, with more of my own music out there.\nI recently acquired an instrument by the factory of Alfred Arnold \u2013 the Stradivarius of the bandoneon \u2013 that was produced after the outbreak of the Second World War. At this time the factory in Germany was no longer able to export these instruments to Argentina because of the British blockade. This instrument is virtually unplayed since it was made; I\u2019m still playing it in.\nI\u2019m doing a concert later today with some amazing musicians, so eager anticipation!\nJulian Rowlands is a bandoneonist, composer and arranger specialising in tango, classical and contemporary music. The bandoneon is a free reed instrument that is renowned for the beauty of its sound, and for its remarkable expressive range and flexibility. Its playing techniques and repertoire were developed in Argentina, where it is the essential voice of the tango. Julian received his degree in music from Southampton University and studied bandoneon with the leading Argentinian player Victor Villena.\nwww.bandoneon.co.uk\n(original interview date 1 November 2017)\nArgentinian musicbandoneonBritish musicianinterviews with musiciansMeet the ArtistPiazzollatango\nPrevious Post Anne Vanschothorst, composer and harpist\nNext Post Owain Park, composer/conductor\nPingback: Interview: Julian Rowlands, Bandoneon Player - RESPIRO E MOVIMENTO",

        "raw_content": "Pope says on side of victims of US 'predator' priests\nPopo Francis was elected in 2013 and vowed to take a \"zero tolerance\" approach to clerical sex abuse. (Max Rossi/Reuters)\nPope Francis is on the side of victims of more than 300 \u201cpredator\u201d priests in the United States who are accused of abusing over 1 000 children across seven decades, the Vatican said on Thursday.\n\u201cVictims should know that the pope is on their side,\u201d the Vatican said in a statement after a devastating US grand jury report published on Tuesday decried a systematic cover-up by the Catholic Church.\n\u201cThose who have suffered are his priority, and the Church wants to listen to them to root out this tragic horror that destroys the lives of the innocent,\u201d the statement said.\n\u201cThere are two words that can express the feelings faced with these horrible crimes: shame and sorrow,\u201d it said.\nThe Vatican statement added that the church needed to learn \u201chard lessons from its past, and there should be accountability for both abusers and those who permitted abuse to occur\u201d.\nThe report is thought to be the most comprehensive to date into abuse in the US church, since The Boston Globe first exposed paedophile priests in Massachusetts in 2002.\nBut while Tuesday\u2019s report led to charges against two priests, one of whom has pleaded guilty, the majority of those responsible are dead and the vast majority of crimes happened too long ago to prosecute, officials said.\nThe two-year investigation by a grand jury into all but two Pennsylvania dioceses turned up dozens of witnesses and half a million pages of church records containing \u201ccredible allegations against over three hundred predator priests.\u201d\nMore than 1 000 child victims were identifiable, but the \u201creal number\u201d was \u201cin the thousands,\u201d the grand jury estimated.\nVictims were often traumatised for life, driven to drugs, alcohol and suicide, the grand jury said. The only recourse was to recommend changes to the law and expose what had happened to make sure such widespread abuse was never repeated.\nSo far only two new priests are being charged with crimes that fall within the statute of limitations.\nThe grand jury called for changes in the law that would scrap the statute of limitations for child sex abuse, give victims more time to file civil lawsuits and tighten legislation compelling people to report abuse they find out about.\n\u201cDespite some institutional reform, individual leaders of the church have largely escaped public accountability,\u201d the report said.\n\u201cPriests were raping little boys and girls, and the men of God who were responsible for them not only did nothing; they hid it all. For decades.\u201d\nChurch elders were instead promoted and predator priests allowed to remain in ministries for 10, 20, even 40 years after leaders learned of their crimes as the list of victims got longer and longer, Pennsylvania\u2019s Attorney General Josh Shapiro said.\nBetween 5 700 and 10 000 Catholic priests have been accused of sexual abuse in the United States, but only a few hundred have been tried, convicted, and sentenced for their crimes, according to the watchdog Bishop Accountability.\nSince the abuse crisis became public in the 2000s, the US church has spent more than $3 billion in settlements, according to Bishop Accountability.\nOne estimate suggests up there were 100 000 US victims.\nFrancis was elected in 2013 and vowed to take a \u201czero tolerance\u201d approach to clerical sex abuse and rid the Church of the scourge of paedophilia, which has done enormous damage to its standing in many countries.\nBut his credibility on the issue has been hit by a series of missteps and victims\u2019 organisations maintain that the Church remains reluctant to hand paedophile priests over to criminal justice authorities.\nFrancis has compared sex abuse by priests to participating in a \u201cSatanic Mass\u201d, but he has also been accused of being too soft on paedophiles, extending to them a general policy of mercy he is promoting in the Roman Catholic Church.\nThere are widespread accusations that the Catholic Church ignored and covered up child abuse in countries from Australia to Chile.\npriestsPopepaedophilia scandalsCatholic ChurchVatican\nCatholic Church sent a priest accused of child abuse to work with children in Malawi\nWhat is it about priests and sex?",

        "raw_content": "U.S. Drone Strikes: UN Report Slams Program For Violating Pakistani Sovereignty\nThe Obama administration\u2019s use of drones is facing yet another heavy accusation. A United Nations investigator, Ben Emerson said in a report summarizing his human rights and counter-terror monitoring visit,\n\u201cThe position of the Government of Pakistan is quite clear. It does not consent to the use of drones by the United States on its territory and it considers this to be a violation of Pakistan&apos;s sovereignty and territorial integrity.\n\u201cAs a matter of international law the US drone campaign in Pakistan is therefore being conducted without the consent of the elected representatives of the people, or the legitimate government of the state. It involves the use of force on the territory of another state without its consent and is therefore a violation of Pakistan\u2019s sovereignty.\u201d\nThis sentiment was also shared in a statement by Pakistan\u2019s Foreign Ministry, which said that the drone strikes are \u201care counterproductive, against international law and a violation of its sovereignty and territorial integrity.\u201d\nPakistan\u2019s consent to the strikes has been a topic of argument ever since relations between the two nations have soured as a result of a U.S. air strike that killed Pakistani soldiers in 2011. These complaints also stem from general debate around the concept of \u201ccollateral damages\u201d (civilian lives) to which both the U.S. and Pakistan officials claim have been minimal, though clearly what is being reported doesn&apos;t match up in every instance.\nRegardless, it\u2019s insisted that the U.S. and Pakistani military as well as politicians are in high contact and continue to consent to U.S. strikes. But even when consent is present, are U.S. drone strikes still violating Pakistan\u2019s sovereignty? If sovereignty remains defined by Emerson\u2019s observations and reports, then the answer is yes. His admissions of Pakistan also finding the drone strikes to be \u201ccounterproductive\u201d as well as \u201cperpetuating the problem of terrorism\u201d in the region are legitimate complaints that the U.S. desperately needs to take into consideration.\nEmerson said, \u201cBased on its direct knowledge of local conditions, Pakistan aims to a sustainable counter-terrorism strategy that involves dialogue and development in this complex region and that tackles not only the manifestations of terrorism but also its root causes.\u201d\nHowever, at present, the U.S. is giving Pakistan very little breathing room to develop and place these strategies into action. And honestly, the U.S. should not be surprised to see if and when a correlation between civilian lives taken in drone strikes and the number of Pakistanis seeking as a result.",

        "raw_content": "...and it's a very good message. The following quote is taken from his book, \"A Hill on Which to Die .\" The specific section is found on pages 296-297.\nGrave problems still confront Southern Baptists, however. One is the bureaucracy of the convention. I once wondered how local, independent, Bible-believing churches in the first century developed into the Roman Catholic Church. After observing the manner in which the bureaucracy grew in the Southern Baptist Convention in a very short time, I no longer wonder. The main danger of a bureaucracy is that it becomes an end in itself and not a means to effectuate the principles for which it was founded. History shows us that a bureaucracy, whether political, religious, or business, ends up seeking additional perks for itself and additional favors for those in the bureaucracy. It becomes loaded with individuals whose only qualification is that they have been loyal to the system and, therefore, are rewarded by being placed in the bureaucracy when they fail elsewhere.\nThe \"good ol' boy\" system evidently started years ago. Liberals developed under this system, because the liberals were careful not to voice their extreme positions publicly (with a few exceptions) and were careful to pay their dues to the system. Such a system must not be allowed to develop under conservative leadership. We must guard against a reinstallation of a \"good ol' boy\" system under which anything could occur as long as it didn't harm the bureaucracy.\nI fear bureaucratic control and domination.\nJudge Pressler is absolutely correct. As we prepare for San Antonio there are a plethora of events that will command our attention. Whether it be the issue of Private Prayer languages, the issue(s) with Southwestern Seminary, the IMB policy on baptism, etc. I would encourage you, however, that possibly the greatest problem that we must consider, and quite probably the quickest and most successful method of reform that we can encourage is the abolition of a tight circle of convention power. Our convention has been led by good men for a series of years now, but it's been good men engaged in a tight circle of leadership. That must go away. Below I've dug up some research about the candidates for SBC president and the men who nominated them over the past decade or so. It's a telling pattern.\nFeb. 3, 1998 - James Merritt agrees to nominate Paige Patterson as President of the SBC. Patterson serves two, one year terms.\nFeb. 9, 2000 - Jack Graham agrees to nominate James Merritt as President of the SBC. Merritt serves two, one year terms.\nFeb. 4, 2002 - Johnny Hunt agrees to nominate Jack Graham as President of the SBC. Graham serves two, one year terms.\nFeb. 20, 2004 - Johnny Hunt agrees to nominate Bobby Welch as President of the SBC. Welch serves two, one year terms.\nFeb. 7, 2006 - Johnny Hunt is \"anointed\" as THE conservative candidate for President of the SBC. After much hoopla over his candidacy, he withdraws his name from consideration and Frank Page is elected over two other candidates. Page is up for reelection in San Antonio. [additional link here]\nNone of these men are bad men, in fact I'm convinced that they're wonderful men. I also believer, however, that they have been part of an all too tight leadership group [see this article]. Be prepared, while in San Antonio, to continue the pattern begun last summer of requiring the Convention as a whole to reverse this trend.\nOne further article, that is telling, is this article [click here] that describes the process of nominating Missouri pastor, Gerald Davidson, to the position of 1st Vice President. Notice in particular, Bailey Smith's choice of words; specifically that he declares that \"we have decided\" that Davidson will be the next 1st VP of the SBC. That kind of thinking must come to an end for the convention to prosper and flourish.\nMedia, Ministry, WorshipMicah Fries April 6, 2007\nWhy this scientist believes in God\nArticle, Culture, Influences, Media, TheologyMicah Fries April 4, 2007",

        "title": "Guy Lab is the Underwear Brand Ready to Empower You | Milk",
        "raw_content": "This Underwear Brand Whispers Sweet Nothings To You\nOf all the clothes I throw together every morning to create an outfit, underwear is the one I rarely spend more than a passing thought on\u2014let alone what my choice of underwear says about me. Yet that may all change thanks to a new Australian designer that cares more about fostering inspiration than falling into an oversexualized and hyperstylized stereotype. Guy Hastie has left the design labs at Ksubi to break out into a market desperately in need of change. Through his new signature brand Guy Lab, Hastie aims to create a strong foundation for a modern man\u2019s wardrobe while also exploring the purpose behind discovering one\u2019s inner self.\nThey are lofty goals, but with a collection stitched together from organic cotton, and one that includes five customizable waistbands in his Core, Series, and Mantra lines, Guy Lab looks poised to become the underwear brand we never knew we needed. We caught up with Hastie for an early morning wake-up call to talk the origins of the label\u2019s name, underwear fetishes, mantras, and jock straps.\nNow, I know your name is Guy, but where did you come up with the name Guy Lab?\nI\u2019d always known I wanted to use my name in the brand to make it more personal, and to give people an opportunity to have choices and personalize what they\u2019re wearing. The \u201cLab\u201d part comes from the idea of a laboratory that\u2019s creating cool products for guys. I really want the brand to grow into a series of lifestyle products in the future but, at this point, it\u2019s purely underwear. The name \u201cGuy Lab\u201d worked well with my aesthetic and vision for the brand.\nYour brand is obviously very focused on men, but fashion is heading towards a more gender neutral focus. Have you thought about this at all moving forward?\nNo, it\u2019s not really something I\u2019ve thought about to be honest. At this point, my market is men and women with their guys. It\u2019s definitely something for thought.\nWhat prompted the switch from outerwear at Ksubi to strictly underwear?\nI felt that it was it was a way in. It\u2019s just me running the whole business so I wanted a core product I could eventually build from. It\u2019s really difficult to do a men\u2019s brand\u2014especially coming from Australia. I needed to do something different. I don\u2019t have a fetish for underwear but I\u2019ve always had an interest in high-end underwear pieces. That\u2019s what drove me more than anything. I\u2019m also a big fan of packaging so I wanted to create my own unique packaging.\nThe boxes that the underwear come in are also really unique and customized to the exact fit and style, which doesn\u2019t happen often. How many iterations are there?\nI didn\u2019t want something with stickers or generic packaging so I have 69 screens that I custom print.\nOf course it\u2019s 69. Was that accidental or did you plan for it to have a sexual connotation given that it\u2019s underwear that markets a lot to gay men?\n[Laughs] I\u2019ve never really thought about it like that.\nWith Series, a customer can have \u201ccute,\u201d \u201clucky,\u201d or \u201cnice\u201d on the waistband. Who would you consider the target customer with these?\nWhen we looked at which adjectives to use, I thought about gay men and what they\u2019d go for but it\u2019s been popular with women buying a gift for their boyfriend. With \u201ccute,\u201d I knew gay guys would go for that while \u201cnice\u201d is aimed at straight customers. \u201cLucky\u201d is successful with everyone. We also have our core part of the collection that is more addressed to a straighter male customer. I tried to cover all areas there. It is about the pink and the green, isn\u2019t it?\nMoving into the new year, what direction do you plan to take with the brand?\nI have plans to do a film but first I need to look at underwear and how it\u2019s seen in the market. How it\u2019s projected in the market and think about ways to showcase it, you know? For my brand, underground is best. I really want to keep it low-fi and find more artistic ways of representing the brand.\n\u201cI wanted to bring empowerment to underwear and explore that a little bit.\u201d\nYou are the only underwear brand I\u2019ve seen that has a mantra on one of the waistband options. Where did \u201cwe must bring our own light into the darkness\u201d come from?\nOnce I left my job at Ksubi, I went to India and went on a spiritual hiatus to learn all about self-empowerment\u2014that\u2019s another underlying message within the brand. With the really over-sexualized underwear brands on the market, guys are getting detached from themselves. I wanted to bring empowerment to underwear and explore that a little bit. I\u2019ve had that mantra in my little book of mantras for awhile and I thought it really dictated the direction of the collection.\nI had this vision of guys being out in the club\u2014gay guys in particular\u2014and their shirts off and being really proud of their exposed underwear. I thought, \u201cWhat could we do to bring these guys together?\u201d I feel with this underwear and these waistbands, it\u2019s a talking point or an icebreaker\u2014it opens up channels of communication. You want to be the cute guy or you feel lucky. It\u2019s a way of conversing without actually having to talk to each other.\nI definitely think if you had a jock strap with \u201cwe must bring our own light into the darkness,\u201d it would bring a whole new meaning to it.\nExactly! Maybe I\u2019ll try it, I got some spare elastic. I can send you one and see how it works out.

        "raw_content": "Next up in our series of composer profiles for the Scholar Groups is Mozart, the composer for the group led by Mrs Barry.\nMozart barely needs introduction, but his life has been mythicized so much that a recap won\u2019t hurt! Born in Salzburg and hailed a child genius early on, Mozart spent much of his childhood travelling around Europe, performing both alone and with his older sister, Nannerl. Aged eight, he composed his first symphony and aged 14, he wrote his first opera. He was introduced to some of the biggest names in the musical world at that time, including J.C. Bach.\nIn spite of all this, Mozart, like many musicians at the time, struggled to find and keep employment. His first position in Salzburg did not last long and he was obligated to travel around Europe to find more work. By his early twenties, Mozart settled in Vienna, where his operas in particular received great acclaim and successful premieres, and he continued to perform as a concert pianist. While in Vienna, Mozart met and became friends with Haydn, and there were also rumours of the older Mozart meeting a young Beethoven when the latter first came to Vienna.\nTowards the end of his life, Mozart\u2019s income shrunk and he was obligated to travel to other German cities to look for work opportunities. In spite of his poor health, his final year was one of the most productive, with The Magic Flute, the Requiem, and the Clarinet Concerto among the works he conceived in this time. But, sadly, an illness that Mozart developed while in Prague for the premiere of his opera La clemenza di Tito led to his death at just thirty-five.\nNowadays, Mozart ties with Beethoven as the most well-known classical composer in history, and he represents a highly exciting part of musical history. Musical patronage was still the main way for composers to be employed in Mozart\u2019s time, but work on commission from individuals and institutions was increasing and Mozart started to witness this change. Mozart\u2019s work also follows the trajectory from Baroque music to early Romantic, even though some critics say that all of his music sounds the same. Whatever your opinion of his music, there is no doubt that Mozart has had a massive effect on the classical music world from his death onwards.\nThe Magic Flute, Overture \u2013 one of the most famous of Mozart\u2019s works, this overture is famed for its sudden bursts of volume and energy. As one of Mozart\u2019s last works, this could be considered the epitome of his compositional talents.\nPiano Sonata K. 331 \u2013 this is one of the more well-known piano sonatas, with the famous \u201cRondo alla Turca\u201d as the final movement, but what makes this piece interesting is the way that Mozart doesn\u2019t stick to conventional forms for each movement. Great fun to play and to listen to.\nClarinet Concerto in A \u2013 almost certainly the most famous clarinet concerto produced so far in music history, the slow movement of Mozart\u2019s offering is particularly celebrated for its balance of impressive technical ability and stunning simplicity.\n\u2190 The Importance of Listening\nEvening Recital, 28th November 2016 \u2192",

As of last year, UCLA was \u201cbelieved to be the first university to conduct a \u2018\u200bcampus-wide mental health screening program\u200b\u2019, where it invited students to \u201ccheck in\u201d and offer them treatment within the study\u2019s 8 week\u200b Internet Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (iCBT)\u200b program if they showed signs of mild to moderate depression or anxiety. This multifaceted challenge encompasses many groups working towards the same goal through different approaches and focus areas. One of these groups is the \u200bResilience Peer Network\u200b (RPN), a combination of UCLA undergraduate and graduate students that are trained to support their fellow peers as they work their way through the 8 week iCBT study. RPN just announced a new name for their resilience peer services, the STAND (screening and treatment for depression and anxiety) program. Once members have gone through the necessary training, they will officially become a STAND peer and are eligible to facilitate many different kinds of support groups, including one-on-one and group settings.\nRPN teaches their Resilience Peers a number of tools to combat negative emotions and increase one\u2019s ability to cope. The 8 week iCBT program has a different focus or tool to share with participants each week, such as developing an exercise routine, starting a mindfulness practice, hunting for positives, and shifting attention, to name a few. One of the wonderful things about the iCBT program is that it provides a holistic overview of mental health and offers a diverse group of tools which participants get to test out themselves each week to see what works best for them.\nAs a STAND Peer within the program, I have my favorite lessons and skills picked out, and I actively use them and share them with those around me. You don\u2019t have to take my word for it though, you can try it for yourself:\nHunting for Positives:\u200b\u200b\nWe all have bad days, and, unfortunately, bad days will continue to happen to us in the future. We simply cannot control everything. Wouldn\u2019t it be nice though if those bad days didn\u2019t have to be all bad? The truth is that they probably aren\u2019t, but we allow ourselves to get so caught up in our emotions and events of the bad day that it distracts us from appreciating the good parts of it that may just make the day seem not so bad after all.\nMaybe you passed by some pretty flowers on your walk, or got to pet a cute dog, or you got a call from a loved one you haven\u2019t heard from in a while. Those are all positives that deserve to be recognized and that could change the way you feel about a bad day. As you continue on throughout the rest of your day, I challenge you to hunt for positives and see how you feel when you turn in.\nPracticing Mindfulness:\u200b\u200b\nNumerous studies will tell you about the positive effects of practicing mindfulness, but these effects are more believable if you experience them yourself. Let\u2019s try a short meditation right now to give you a bit of a break from your day. We\u2019ll do a public places guided meditation focusing on body and sound that you can do wherever and whenever you have a spare three minutes. The \u200btranscript below\u200b is one of many mindfulness exercises available on the\u200b Mindfulness Awareness Research Center\u200b (MARC) website and is accessible to all UCLA students, faculty, and staff. Take your time to read through the meditation, and really focus on being present during this break.\n\u201cBegin this meditation by noticing the posture that you\u2019re in.\nYou may be standing or sitting or lying down.\nNotice your body exactly as it is.\nAnd see if you can tune into any sensations that are present to you in your body in this moment. There might be heaviness or lightness, pressure, weight.\nThere might be vibration, pulsating, movement, warmth, coolness.\nThese sensations can be anywhere in your body.\nAnd all you have to do is notice them.\nNotice what\u2019s happening with curiosity and interest.\nTake a breath. As you breathe, relax. Not much to do except be fully present and aware.\nNow let go of the body\u2019s sensations, and turn your attention to the sounds inside or outside the room.\nThere may be all sorts of sounds happening.\nLoud sounds, quiet sounds You can also notice the silence between the sounds.\nBut the sounds are coming and going.\nNotice them coming and going.\nOne tendency of our mind is to want to think about the sounds.\nTo start to make up a story about the sound,or we have a reaction to it: I like it, I don\u2019t like it. See if instead, you can simply listen to the sound.\nNotice it with curiosity and interest.\nThe sounds are coming and going.\nNow once again, notice your body standing, present or seated or lying down.\nNotice any body sensations that are obvious to you.\nTake another breath.\nAnd when you\u2019re ready, bring your attention back into the room.\u201d\nHow do you feel now? Take a bit of time to check in with yourself.\nThe above two tools are just a couple of my favorites that I learned through my involvement in the Resilience Peer Network\u2019s STAND program. There is so much the Resilience Peers and the program have to offer, whether you\u2019re looking to become involved through facilitating support groups or receiving treatment through the study. Learn more about RPN\u2019s STAND program training and application process\u200b here\u200b, or take the check-in survey to track your mental health here\u200b.\nhttps://mindwell.healthy.ucla.edu/wp-content/uploads/sites/6/2018/11/STAND-2.png 220 1010 uclahci https://mindwell.healthy.ucla.edu/wp-content/uploads/sites/6/2017/08/hci_mind_well.png uclahci2018-11-01 13:31:232018-11-01 13:33:11Taking a STAND for Mental Health at UCLA\nMeet Anusha Sadda, CAPS Student Advisory Board Member Slime During Grind Time",

The zone is important, because it allows students to read books that are not too difficult (or too easy!). I also inform each student of the number of points he/she should work towards for an \u201cA.\u201d Each book is worth a certain number of points (based on the book\u2019s difficulty and length). When the book is finished, the student takes a 10\u201420 question basic reading comprehension test on the classroom computer to analyze how well he/she understood the book. Points are awarded based on the number of correct answers and the student moves on to another book.\nAccelerated Reader (AR) accounts for 10% of a student's grade. Please contact your student's Language Arts Teacher for more information.\nPlan to read AT LEAST 30\u201460 minutes a day. Use SSW time (that\u2019s 30 minutes right there), free time in class, a quiet time at home, while riding on the bus or in a car, etc.\nDon\u2019t wait until the last minute to choose a book.

She also provides insight into how they influence an individual and how an individual can use them on their journey to self-discovery.\nOpen lectures are a great starting point for all of you who have just started with the spirituality and want to learn more about it. But, they are also a great point for those ready to further their knowledge, both theoretically and practically, as the lectures themselves contain both theoretical part as well as a practical part of how to reach the fifth dimension of the conscious self.\nLoved Momoyo and her open natured enthusiasm and insightfulness. A very natural speaker. It was great to experience for ourselves the power of the dragon healing. So I enjoyed the interactive aspect of the course as well.

        "title": "US sanctions on Rusal have caused aluminum prices to spike",
        "raw_content": "Sanctions have sent aluminum soaring. That could hurt your wallet\nby Alanna Petroff @AlannaPetroff April 11, 2018: 1:01 PM ET\nRussia's society: Why so many oligarchs?\nUS sanctions aimed at punishing Russian oligarchs close to President Vladimir Putin could make your soda habit or luxury car more expensive.\nThe price of aluminum has surged 10% since the United States slapped tough new sanctions on Rusal, a leading metal producer controlled by Russian oligarch Oleg Deripaska.\nIf sustained, that price hike could push up the cost of making a range of industrial and consumer products, including cars, airplanes, soda cans and pharmaceutical packaging.\nUnder the sanctions announced Friday, Americans are generally prohibited from doing business with Rusal, and people of other nationalities could face sanctions themselves if they facilitate transactions for the firm.\nRusal produces 7% of the world's aluminum, according to the US Treasury. But buyers, business partners and commodity exchanges are now scrambling to sever ties with the company. Its shares have plummeted 56% since the sanctions were announced.\n\"Businesses just don't want to deal with even a remote risk of getting on the wrong side of US authorities,\" said Gregor Irwin, chief economist at the political advisory firm Global Counsel.\nIt won't be easy for aluminum buyers to replace the lost supply, and prices are rising as a result.\nRussia's Rusal is one of the biggest aluminum producers in the world.\nRusal had sales of nearly $10 billion in 2017, with about 15% coming from the United States -- its second largest market after Russia.\nAluminum prices can be volatile, and short term price hikes won't do much to affect the price of consumer staples. But if aluminum remains expensive, companies will eventually look to raise prices on products that use the metal.\n\"If the sanctions are sustained ... I think it's inevitable that we will see an increase in the cost of assembling cars and therefore, car prices,\" said David Bailey, a professor of industrial strategy at Aston University in the United Kingdom.\nBailey said luxury automakers like Jaguar Land Rover and BMW (BMWYY) would be hit hardest because their designs use more aluminum in order to make the cars lighter and more fuel efficient.\nA new 10% tariff imposed by the US on some aluminum imports won't help matters.\n\"There's potentially a double hit for American consumers,\" said Irwin.\nShares in Russia's Rusal have plunged since US sanctions were announced on Friday.\nOn Wednesday, US Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin said that the sanctions have been \"quite impactful.\"\n\"You've seen the impact on the market,\" Mnuchin told lawmakers in Washington. \"These are very, very powerful tools. We need to do them carefully and thoughtfully.\"\nDeripaska is one of seven oligarchs to be hit by the new sanctions. Other companies that the US government said are owned or controlled by Deripaska, including EN+ Group and GAZ Group, were also sanctioned.\nThe Russian is best known in the United States as a former business associate of former Trump presidential campaign chairman Paul Manafort.\nThe US Treasury said Deripaska has been \"investigated for money laundering, and has been accused of threatening the lives of business rivals, illegally wiretapping a government official, and taking part in extortion and racketeering.\"\nOn Friday, Deripaska described the US sanctions as \"groundless, ridiculous and absurd.\"\n-- CNN's Donna Borak and Ivana Kottasova contributed to this report.\nCNNMoney (London) First published April 11, 2018: 1:01 PM ET",

You no longer have to traipse around all the estate agents windows, looking in the windows and deciding based on one photo. Now you can really look around the house, and see if it\u2019s right for you.\nIt pays to be a little bit sceptical of what you find online. Are properties snapped up right away in your area, or do they hang around for a while?\nPlus, keep an eye on those prices. Some may seem out of your reach, but remember that\u2019s what the seller wants, not always what they will get.\nGet friendly with your local estate agent\nIf you want to delegate some of the legwork, get talking to your local estate agent. A lot of homes are sold before they\u2019re ever put online, so it pays to be in the know.\nLet them know what kind of home you\u2019re looking for, and they\u2019ll keep an eye on houses for sale \u2013 Swindon, for you.\nIf you do get in touch, remember that estate agents talk to a lot of people every day. Make sure you let them know that you\u2019re serious about buying. They can be a real asset in finding your perfect home.\nPrice check other homes in your desired area\nThe price may be perfect in the area you want, but what do you get for your money? Thanks to the Internet, you can find out.\nUse housing search engines to look up old sales, and see what condition the homes were in. You\u2019ll also see what they sold for, so you can budget accordingly.\nNo matter how wonderful the house is, it\u2019s no good if you don\u2019t like the area it\u2019s in. After all, you can\u2019t move a house to a different location, but you can do it up.\nWalk around on foot at different times of day, and see what\u2019s going on. Are the roads busy? what are the local pubs and shops like? Is there a good school nearby?\nYou can even ask a local police officer or neighbourhood watch coordinator, as they\u2019ll give you the unvarnished truth.\nRemember that home prices fluctuate\nLike the stock market, house prices fluctuate according to a myriad of factors. As long as you have a budget in mind, and can be patient, you\u2019ll get the right home for you.\nLooking for houses for sale, Swindon? Call us at Moovahome. We\u2019re Swindon\u2019s best estate agents, and we\u2019ll find the home that\u2019s just right for you.",

The consecutive record-breaking shows eclipsed AAMI Park's previous attendance record of 31,566, which was set by Bruce Springsteen in February 2014.\nWhile AAMI Park is predominantly a sporting venue, the stadium has displayed excellent flexibility in recent years by hosting large-scale concerts for the likes of Foo Fighters, Bruce Springsteen and now Ed Sheeran.\nGlobal superstar Taylor Swift will add her name to the impressive roll-call this week when she brings The 1989 World Tour to AAMI Park on December 10, 11 and 12.\nPhotos from Ed Sheeran's record-breaking weekend at AAMI Park are available HERE.",

        "raw_content": "Malachi is the last prophet of the Old Testament, and then there is a leap of 400 years until the birth of Jesus Christ. It\u2019s important to get an idea of what transpired in the Holy Land during this long period of time. Learning about this era sets the stage for Christ\u2019s birth, and shows us what kind of culture and political climate received Him.\nBabylon fell after only 70 years of glory, and Persia became the ruling empire. The Persian King Cyrus was inspired to allow and even encourage the Jews to return to Jerusalem and rebuild their temple. However, a huge number of Jews stayed in Babylon or migrated elsewhere (by the time of Christ, there were 1 million Jews in the great city of Alexandria, Egypt). When the Jews began rebuilding their temple, there were only about 50,000 of them in Jerusalem. A number of Jewish scholars remained settled in Babylon under the Persians, and they codified and produced commentary on the Mosaic Law.\nBy the time of the return from Babylon, also, the Jews were speaking Aramaic, and Hebrew, the language of the scriptures, was becoming lost to them. Their religious leaders in Jerusalem were appointed by the Persian kings, and were not prophets of the same caliber and inspiration as the prophets of old. Thus, there arose a class educated in Hebrew, in the scriptures, and in the law, who copied the scriptures, but also transmitted religion to the populace. These were not prophets, but scribes. Because Jewish scholars endlessly studied, debated and analyzed the scriptures, answering the most detailed of questions, the commentary grew and grew, and \u201chairsplitting\u201d evolved, wresting the scriptures and ruling on every detail of the law. Christ called this \u201clooking beyond the mark.\u201d\nBut behold, the Jews were a stiffnecked people; and they despised the words of plainness, and killed the prophets, and sought for things that they could not understand. Wherefore, because of their blindness, which blindness came by looking beyond the mark, they must needs fall; for God hath taken away his plainness from them, and delivered unto them many things which they cannot understand, because they desired it. And because they desired it God hath done it, that they may stumble (Book of Mormon, Jacob 4:14).\nIt should not be surprising that there was no unity of interpretation among these scholars, nor that they competed to bring people to their varying points of view. The result was the creation of such distinct religious sects in Judah as the Sadducees, the Pharisees, and the Essenes. These divisions began in Babylon, but were amplified after the return to the Holy Land. In brief, the Sadducees were the moneyed, sophisticated class. They accepted many of the influences of Greek culture, and by Christ\u2019s time, no longer believed in angels or the resurrection. They were sophisticated city-dwellers, and also by Christ\u2019s time, had purchased the right to the high priesthood from the Romans.\nPharisees believed in strict adherence to the law. Christ derided them for keeping the outward ordinances, while being corrupt in the spirit. They accepted not only the written law, but the oral law that accompanied the scriptures, and they believed in angels and the resurrection. They were less sophisticated and less wealthy than the Sadducees. But Pharisaic Judaism evolved into the orthodox Judaism of today, while the Sadducees disappeared.\nIn the power struggle between these two sects can be traced the inception of formal synagogue worship. The Pharisees sought to undermine the religious authority of the Sadducees, which was based on their exclusive priestly domination of the temple. To weaken this control, the Pharisees advocated taking certain ceremonies, previously associated exclusively with the temple, and practicing them in the home. In addition, formal places of worship, the synagogue, were set up that promulgated and perpetuated their doctrine. It was in this way that learned men of other than priestly descent began to play a role in national religious affairs.\nThe Essenes rebelled against the hypocrisy of both the Sadducees and Pharisees, and against the Hellinization (Grecanization) of the Jewish culture. At times they isolated themselves by establishing a retreat in Qumran (where the Dead Sea Scrolls are from). They kept a different calendar than the Pharisees, so their holidays did not match up with those of mainstream Jews in Jerusalem.\nWe\u2019ll also mention the Samaritans. Because the Assyrians had effected a population transfer in the northern kingdom of Israel, the people of Samaria intermarried with gentiles. They were also quick to adopt Greek culture. When the Jews returned from Babylon and began to rebuild the temple, the Samaritans (who mostly considered themselves Jews) wanted to help. The Jews of Jerusalem refused, considering the Samaritans impure by lineage, but also in their corrupted religious practices. This was a great insult to the Samaritans, and they responded by doing anything they could to thwart the building of the temple, even appealing to Persian King Darius. Thus, the breach between the Jews and the Samaritans grew, and provided subject matter for some of Christ\u2019s most profound parables.\nThe Persian Empire was overtaken by the advancing armies of Alexander the Great of Macedonia (northern Greece). The two kingdoms jostled for power over many years. Some of the Greek city-states had joined together under Alexander\u2019s father (Phillip) to protect themselves from Persia.\nIn 334 B.C. [Alexander] successfully attacked the Persian Empire and defeated it. From there he quickly swept through the entire Middle East, conquering all the nations that lay before him, including Judea. Behind him came hordes of Greek colonists\u2014merchants, craftsmen, laborers\u2014eager to impose the Greek culture.\nSo far-reaching were Alexander\u2019s campaigns, that even Egypt became Greek. The Ptolemies, pharaohs of Egypt, were Greek, including the famous Cleopatra. Although Alexander died of disease in his early thirties, his successes carried Greek culture throughout the Eastern Mediterranean and Middle East.\nGreek, influence was felt for centuries. With his conquest of the little Judean state, the Jewish world pivoted westward and came under the influence of the civilizations of Europe. In the past the Jews had been carried and scattered to the northeast and to the south; now it would be to the north and to the west. In the past their masters had been from the Oriental East, like themselves. Now the Occidental, or Western, peoples took over.\nGreek became the language of commerce all over the empire and Hellenic culture became the standard.\nThus, new pagan influences and challenges faced the Jewish people. Greeks looked on the traditions, customs, and religion of the Jews as primitive, archaic, and barbaric; they set about to \u201cenlighten\u201d them. Even the surrounding peoples quickly accepted the Greek rule, and soon the Jews were an island in a sea of Greek influence.\nGreek philosophy and materialism exerted a huge influence upon the wealthier citizens of the Holy Land, including the Sadducees.\nAfter Alexander died, warring powers fought for control of the Holy Land. Alexander\u2019s empire had been divided among his generals.\nTwo of the generals finally came to dominate in the Holy Land. Seleucus (pronounced Sel-ay-ooh-cus) conquered Syria and the northern part of the Middle East. Ptolemy (pronounced Toll-oh-mee) took Egypt. Judea lay directly between the two rivals. The Holy Land changed hands several times during the next few years as Ptolemies and Seleucids fought for its control, causing disastrous results to the towns and population of Judea. In 301 B.C. it finally fell to the Ptolemies of Egypt, to whom it belonged for one hundred years. But during this entire time, the Seleucids contested their rule. Judea was for the Ptolemies, as it had been for many rulers of Egypt, Persia, and Assyria, of strategic importance. For the Egyptians it served as an advance defense base. In addition, it had great economic value because of the trade routes that crossed it. On the other hand, the Seleucids, who had firmly established themselves in Syria, did not want to have the Ptolemies rule a country so close to the heart of their land. Thus, Judea remained a point of contention between the two rival powers. It was not until 200 B.C. that the Seleucids were able to capture and hold Judea.\nThe Seluicid, Antiochus IV came to power in 175 B.C. and really upped the pressure on the Jews to become Hellenized. He built a gymnasium in Jerusalem overlooking the temple mount, a terrific insult to the religious, poorer Jews. The athletes competed Greek-style (naked, no women allowed), which caused circumcision to become an embarrassment. This led many of the people to reject the ordinance. In some cases, the young men even underwent painful operations to hide the token of the Abrahamic covenant. (See Emil Schurer, A History of the Jewish People in the Time of Jesus, p. 25.)\nn 169 B.C. the temple was plundered under orders of Antiochus. He attacked on the Sabbath, and the Jews wouldn\u2019t take up arms on the Holy Day. The troops defiled the temple, entering and erecting a statue to Zeus, then offering pigs to the idol. Many Jews were killed. Sabbath observance, celebrations, and circumcision were forbidden on penalty of death.\nOne family refused to give in to the violent persecutions of Antiochus. They called themselves Maccabee, \u201chammer.\u201d The patriarch of the family was a priest, Mattathias.\nIn 167 B.C. , in a little village called Modin, the Greek soldiers gathered the people and demanded that Mattathias, an old priest of the Asmonean family, offer a sacrifice to the pagan god. Mattathias refused, even though he was threatened with death. Another priest stepped forward and agreed to do as the soldier demanded. As this weaker priest lifted the knife, an enraged Mattathias grabbed a sword and cut down both the priest and the Syrian officer. Mattathias and his five sons then fled to the hills and called on all of Judah to join them. (See 1 Maccabees 2:1\u201327.) The revolt had begun! It roared through the land, gathering support on every side as the Jews turned on the hated Greeks. By the time Antiochus took the revolt seriously, he faced an entire nation thirsting for freedom.\nThe Pharisees rallied around the family, who sought to uphold the Mosaic Law. Mattathias died shortly after the rebellion began, but his five sons, led by Judah Maccabee, led the cause. He was successful partly because he and his followers agreed to fight on the sabbath.\nJudah was a military genius and again and again exhorted his vastly outnumbered and poorly equipped troops to have faith in God and the righteousness of their cause. Again and again he devastated forces two to four times the size of his own. (See Josephus, Antiquities of the Jews, bk. 12, chap. 7, par. 3.) By 164 B.C. the city of Jerusalem had been reconquered and the temple cleansed of its impurities and rededicated to the worship of Jehovah. The Jews became independent of their foreign overlords for the first time in over four hundred years.\nThis is the source of the Jewish holiday of Hanukkah. When the Maccabees reclaimed the temple, they set about to cleanse and rededicate it. The menorah (candlestick), or ner tamid (eternal light), had only enough oil to burn for one day, but when lit, miraculously burned for eight days, until more oil could be obtained and consecrated.\nThe Maccabee family became the Hasmonean dynasty of rulers over the Holy Land, and they became corrupt and murderous rather quickly. (Later, King Herod, an Edomite convert to Judaism, would marry a Hasmonean wife to solidify his power.) They formed alliances with the ever-more-powerful empire of Rome. During their years of rule, the Pharisees and Sadducees won and lost power. By the time of Christ, the Sadducees were in control of the Sanhedrin (Jewish ruling court) and the high priesthood, and were in power in the cities, but the Pharisees were favored in the countryside. It was disputes between members of the Hasmonean family vying for power that brought the Roman general Pompey into Jerusalem (63 B.C.). He was invited. And many Jews welcomed him to establish order.\nPompey established a Hasmonean, Antipater, as ruler. His son, the next king of Judea, was Herod the Great. Herod had been raised in Rome at the side of the children of the Caesars. He was respected there, and he was not an untalented ruler. Outside the Holy Land, he was appreciated by Jews for guaranteeing they be respected. But within the Holy Land, he was despised. He was an Idumean (Edomite) by descent, descended from Esau. The Edomites were always enemies to the Jews. He was a convert to Judaism, and made concessions to uphold Jewish culture, but he was wicked, murdering his sons and wives out of jealousy. He was responsible for the \u201cmurder of the innocents in Bethlehem, too. It was his building endeavors that have been his best legacy \u2014 especially the great temple complex and Antonia Fortress.\nHerod the Great died shortly after the birth of Jesus, and the Romans divided the kingdom among Herod\u2019s three sons. Philip ruled north and east of Galilee; Herod Antipas ruled Galilee and Perea; and Archelaus ruled Judea, Samaria, and Idumea. Because of Archelaus\u2019s extreme and oppressive measures, the Jews were successful in having him removed in A.D. 6. His territory was then given to Herod Antipas to rule.\nIt was Herod Antipas who tried Jesus Christ, sending Him to Pontius Pilate.\nOther groups grew up under Roman rule. One was the Zealots, or sicarii. These wanted to overthrow the Romans and were mainly rebelling against Roman taxation. They were named for the knives they sometimes kept hidden beneath their cloaks. After the death of Jesus, it was the Zealots primarily who led the revolt against Rome that resulted in the destruction of Jerusalem in A.D. 70. The people who died in the Roman siege of Masada (which occurred after the destruction of Jerusalem) were Zealots.\nThey would then assassinate those known to favor Rome or sometimes Roman officials themselves. Though violent, the Zealots were strictly religious, justifying themselves on the grounds that only through the overthrow of Rome could God\u2019s kingdom come about. Their very name suggested great zeal for the law of Moses.\nAnother group was the Herodians, who supported Herod and Roman rule. They joined with the Pharisees to oppose Jesus, because they felt that He threatened the politics of the region.\nThe Beginning of a New Dispensation\nDuring the four hundred years that followed Malachi, we know of no prophet in Israel. Though services had been interrupted, the temple rites had continued during most of that time. Priests had made the proper sacrifice on the great altar, and the people had continued to pray daily while a priest had offered incense upon the altar in the holy place. All had gone like clockwork until one day a priest named Zacharias did not reappear as quickly as he should have from the holy place after his service. The people began to marvel and conjecture. And well they should have, for once again the veil had been lifted, and God\u2019s word was proclaimed. The humble and aged Zacharias, of the priestly order of Abia, stood in the presence of an angel. \u201cThy prayer is heard; and thy wife Elisabeth shall bear thee a son. . . . And he shall . . . make ready a people prepared for the Lord.\u201d ( Luke 1:13, 17 .) This long-desired child was to be a messenger who would go forth in the spirit and power of Elias to declare that the kingdom of God was at hand. Once more Israel would be extended the covenant and the promise. Once more the keys and power were to be proffered to them. He who came to prepare the way was called John, or in Hebrew, Johanan, \u201cgift of God.\u201d Israel had a prophet once again, a forerunner, the prophet that would prepare the way for Jehovah\u2019s coming to earth as the Son of God and the Messiah that Judah had awaited for so long. And thus the Old Testament, or old covenant, was brought to a close and the New Testament, or new covenant, begun.",

        "title": "The Creation 2",
        "raw_content": "Many attempts have been made to reconcile the biblical account of the creation with the rock record found on the earth. Science seems to show that the earth is millions of years old, when the creation story refers to \u201cdays\u201d of the creation periods. Latter-day Saint prophets and scientists have also wondered.\nThe scriptures do not provide sufficient information to accurately determine the age of the earth. Generally speaking, those who accept the scriptural account subscribe to one of three basic theories about the age of the world. All three theories depend on how the word day, as used in the creation account, is interpreted.\nThe first theory says that the word day is understood as it is used currently and therefore means a period of 24 hours. According to this theory, the earth was created in one week, or 168 hours. Thus, the earth would be approximately six thousand years old. (Many scholars agree that there were approximately four thousand years from Adam to Christ and that there have been nearly two thousand years since Christ was born.) Very few people, either members of the Church or members of other religions, hold to this theory, since the evidence for longer processes involved in the Creation is substantial.\nA second theory argues that Abraham was told through the Urim and Thummim that one revolution of Kolob, the star nearest to the throne of God, took one thousand earth years (see Abraham 3:2\u20134 ). In other words, one could say that one day of the Lord\u2019s time equals one thousand earth years. Other scriptures support this theory, too (see Psalm 90:4 ; 2 Peter 3:8 ; Facsimile No. 2 from the book of Abraham, figures 1, 4 ). If the word day in Genesis was used in this sense, then the earth would be approximately thirteen thousand years old (seven days of a thousand years each for the Creation plus the nearly six thousand years since Adam\u2019s fall). Some see Doctrine and Covenants 77:12 as additional scriptural support for this theory. [One reason this theory sounds natural is that the Lord said to Adam, \u201cBut of the tree of knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it; for in the time that thoueatest thereof, thou shalt surely die. Now I, Abraham, saw that it was after the Lord\u2019s time, which was after the time of Kolob; for as yet the Gods had not appointed unto Adam his reckoning (Abraham 5:13). Adam lived just under 1,000 years.]\nAlthough the majority of geologists, astronomers, and other scientists believe that even this long period is not adequate to explain the physical evidence found in the earth, there are a small number of reputable scholars who disagree. These claim that the geologic clocks are misinterpreted and that tremendous catastrophes in the earth\u2019s history speeded up the processes that normally may take thousands of years. They cite evidence supporting the idea that thirteen thousand years is not an unrealistic time period. Immanuel Velikovsky, for example, wrote three books amassing evidence that worldwide catastrophic upheavals have occurred in recent history, and he argued against uniformitarianism, the idea that the natural processes in evidence now have always prevailed at the same approximate rate of uniformity. These books are Worlds in Collision, Ages in Chaos, and Earth in Upheaval. Two Latter-day Saint scientists, Melvin A. Cook and M. Garfield Cook, have also advocated this theory in their book Science and Mormonism. A short summary of the Cooks\u2019 approach can be found in Paul Cracroft\u2019s article \u201cHow Old Is the Earth?\u201d ( Improvement Era, Oct. 1964, pp. 827\u201330, 852).\nA third theory says that the word day refers to a period of an undetermined length of time, thus suggesting an era. The word is still used in that sense in such phrases as \u201cin the day of the dinosaurs.\u201d The Hebrew word for day used in the creation account can be translated as \u201cday\u201d in the literal sense, but it can also be used in the sense of an indeterminate length of time (see Genesis 40:4 , where day is translated as \u201ca season\u201d; Judges 11:4 , where a form of day is translated as \u201cin the process of time\u201d; see also Holladay, Hebrew and Aramaic Lexicon of the Old Testament, pp. 130\u201331). Abraham says that the Gods called the creation periods days (see Abraham 4:5, 8 ).\nIf this last meaning was the sense in which Moses used the word day, then the apparent conflict between the scriptures and much of the evidence seen by science as supporting a very old age for the earth is easily resolved. Each era or day of creation could have lasted for millions or even hundreds of millions of our years, and uniformitarianism could be accepted without any problem. (For an excellent discussion of this approach see Henry Eyring, \u201cThe Gospel and the Age of the Earth,\u201d [ Improvement Era, July 1965, pp. 608\u20139, 626, 628]. Also, most college textbooks in the natural sciences discuss the traditional dating of the earth.)\nWhile it is interesting to note these various theories, officially the Church has not taken a stand on the age of the earth. For reasons best known to Himself, the Lord has not yet seen fit to formally reveal the details of the Creation. Therefore, while Latter-day Saints are commanded to learn truth from many different fields of study (see Doctrine and Covenants 88:77\u201379 ), an attempt to establish any theory as the official position of the Church is not justifiable (Old Testament Institute Student Manual, Vol. 1, Chpt. 2).\nAfter Their Own Kind\nGenesis 1:11\u201312, 21, 24\u201325: The Lord says that plants and creatures reproduce \u201cafter their own kind.\u201d Latter-day Saints do not believe that one species of plant or creature can evolve into another. Instead, it appears that species have been created and become extinct through the creation periods. This probably happened while the earth was being prepared for modern animal, plant, and human life. Species appear suddenly in the rock record, and then they disappear suddenly, with no evidences for transitional species. The species that existed on earth before modern animal and human life forms appeared all had a part in preparing the physical earth for modern life forms. Their existence (and even their extinction) provided rock forms, minerals, atmosphere, and nutrients that now provide a perfect environment for us and for modern animal life.\nMen and women are created in the image of God. As explained in the Plan of Salvation, we were His spirit-children in the Pre-existence. In Moses 2:27 it says, \u201cAnd I, God, created man in mine own image, in the image of mine Only Begotten created I him; male and female created I them.\u201d Mormons have a different view of Adam and Eve than that of most Christian faiths. Abraham had a vision of Pre-mortal life:\nNow, the Lord had shown unto me, Abraham, the intelligences that were organized before the world was; and among all these there were many of the noble and great ones; And God saw these souls that they were good, and he stood in the midst of them, and he said: These I will make my rulers; for he stood among those that were spirits, and he saw that they were good; and he said unto me: Abraham, thou art one of them; thou wast chosen before thou wast born (Abraham 3:23, 24).\nThis is similar to Jeremiah 1:5: \u201cBefore I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations.\u201d\nThis process is called \u201cforeordination,\u201d wherein the choicest spirits in the Pre-existence are fore-ordained to govern God\u2019s kingdom on earth. This in no way compromises man\u2019s free agency, which the Lord always protects. It is not \u201cpre-destination.\u201d If a person foreordained to be a leader in God\u2019s kingdom on earth fails to live up to his calling, the Lord raises up another to take his place. Adam and Eve were among Heavenly Father\u2019s choicest spirits in pre-earth life. In fact, revelation has declared that Adam is the Archangel Michael whose forces of angels will finally defeat Satan.\nMormons do not see religious history as a gradual development of a one-God faith. Rather, Latter-day Saints know that Adam was a high-priest and a prophet who fully understood the Plan of Salvation. He and Eve made an eternal covenant with each other and are bound in a celestial or eternal marriage. Adam is called the \u201cAncient of Days,\u201d not only because he was the first man, but because he holds the keys of all the gospel dispensations, which he will deliver to Christ when Christ comes to rule during the millennium.\n\u201cI am grateful that in the midst of the confusion of our Father\u2019s children there has been given to the members of this great organization a sure knowledge of the origin of man, that we came from the spirit world where our spirits were begotten by our Father in heaven, that he formed our first parents from the dust of the earth, and that their spirits were placed in their bodies, and that man came, not as some have believed, not as some have preferred to believe, from some of the lower walks of life, but our ancestors were those beings who lived in the courts of heaven. We came not from some menial order of life, but our ancestor is God our heavenly Father\u201d (George Albert Smith, in Conference Report, Oct. 1925, p. 33).\nWhat Does Replenish Mean?\n\u201cIt is true that the original meaning of the word replenish connotes something is being filled again that was once filled before: Re \u2014again, plenus \u2014full. Why the translators of the King James Version of the Bible used the word replenish may not be clearly known, but it is not the word used in other translations and is not the correct meaning of the Hebrew word from which the translation was originally taken. It is true that the Prophet Joseph Smith followed the King James Version in the use of this word, perhaps because it had obtained common usage among the English-speaking peoples. Replenish, however, is incorrectly used in the King James translation. The Hebrew verb is Moleh[pronounced Mah-lay] . . . meaning fill, to fill, or make full. This word Moleh is the same word which is translated fill in Genesis 1:22 , in the King James Bible, wherein reference is made to the fish, fowl, and beasts of the earth\u201d (Joseph Fielding Smith, Answers to Gospel Questions, 1:208\u20139).\nSome Interesting Quotes\n\u201cHow much organic soup, the material some point to as the source of the first spark of life, would be needed for the chance production of a simple protein? Jacobson answers this question also: \u2018Only the very simplest of these proteins (salmine) could possibly arise, even if the earth were blanketed with a thickness of half a mile of amino acids for a billion years! And by no stretch of the imagination does it seem as though the present environment could give even one molecule of amino acid, let alone be able to order by accident this molecule into a protoplasmic array of self-reproducing, metabolizing parts fitting into an organism.\u2019 [Homer Jacobson, \u201cInformation, Reproduction and the Origin of Life,\u201d American Scientist, Jan. 1955, p. 125.]\n\u201cAnother scientist, impressed with the odds against the chance formation of proteins, has expressed his opinion as follows: \u2018The chance that these five elements [carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, sulfur] may come together to form the molecule, the quantity of matter that must be continually shaken up, and the length of time necessary to finish the task, can all be calculated. A Swiss mathematician, Charles Eugene Guye, has made the computation and finds that the odds against such an occurrence are 10 160 to 1, or only one chance in 10 160 ; that is, 10 multiplied by itself 160 times, a number far too large to be expressed in words. The amount of matter to be shaken together to produce a single molecule of protein would be millions of times greater than that in the whole universe. For it to occur on the earth alone would require many, almost endless billions (10 243 ) of years.\u2019 [Frank Allen, \u201cThe Origin of the World\u2014by Chance or Design?\u201d in John Clover Monsma, ed., The Evidence of God in an Expanding Universe, p. 23.]\u201d (Coffin, Creation, pp. [3\u20134].)\n\u2018It is a feature of the known fossil record that most taxa appear abruptly. They are not, as a rule, led up to by a sequence of almost imperceptible changing forerunners such as Darwin believed should be usual in evolution.\u2019 [ G. G. Simpson, The Evolution of Life, p. 149.]\n\u201cThus we see that not only is the sudden appearance of complete and intricate animals a problem for evolution, but the absence of change from one major type into another is equally serious. Again we can say that this is no new problem. Soon after collectors started accumulating fossils, it became obvious that fossils belong in the same major categories as do modern animals and plants. A number of scientists have commented in recent years about the lack of change and the absence of connecting links for specific kinds of animals. . . .\n\u201cOn a television panel celebrating the centennial of Charles Darwin\u2019s book Origin of Species, Sir Julian Huxley began his comments by saying, \u2018The first point to make about Darwin\u2019s theory is that it is no longer a theory, but a fact. No serious scientist would deny the fact that evolution has occurred, just as he would not deny the fact that the earth goes around the sun.\u2019 [Sol Tax and Charles Callender, eds., Issues in Evolution, p. 41.] This is a confusing statement that tells only part of the truth. First, the word evolution must be defined.\n\u201cThe word itself merely means \u2018change,\u2019 and on the basis of this definition, evolution is a fact. However, most people understand evolution to mean progressive change in time from simplicity to complexity, from primitive to advanced. This definition of evolution is not based on fact. The study of inheritance has revealed principles and facts that can prove evolution\u2014 if we understand the word evolution to mean \u2018change.\u2019 But the obvious minor changes occurring to living things today give no basis for concluding that limitless change has happened in the past. . . .\n\u201cYes, new species of plants and animals are forming today. The almost endless intergradations of animals and plants in the world, the fantastic degeneration among parasites, and the adaptations of offense and defense, lead to the inevitable conclusion that change has occurred. However, the problem of major changes from one fundamental kind to another is still a most pressing unanswered question facing the evolutionist. Modern animals and plants can change, but the amount of change is limited. The laboratories of science have been unable to demonstrate change from one major kind to another, neither has such change happened in the past history of the earth if we take the fossil record at face value.\u201d (Coffin, Creation, pp. [13, 15].)\n\u201cConstant exposure to one theory of origins, and only one, has convinced many that no alternative exists and that evolution must be the full and complete answer. How unfortunate that most of the millions who pass through the educational process have little opportunity to weigh the evidences on both sides!\n\u201cExaminations of the fossils, stony records of the past, tell us that complicated living things suddenly (without warning, so to speak) began to exist on the earth. Furthermore, time has not modified them enough to change their basic relationships to each other. Modern living organisms tell us that change is a feature of life and time, but they also tell us that there are limits beyond which they do not pass naturally and beyond which man has been unable to force them. In consideration of past or present living things, man must never forget that he is dealing with life, a profoundly unique force which he has not been able to create and which he is trying desperately to understand.\n\u201cHere are the facts; here are the evidences; here, then, are the sound reasons for believing life originated through a creative act. It is time that each individual has the opportunity to know the facts and to make an intelligent choice.\u201d (Coffin, Creation, p. [15].)\n\u201cMolecular biologists point out that there are complex microscopic structures basic to all living things that cannot exist in a partially developed way \u2014 there are no \u201cintermediate forms\u201d for these fundamental and interdependent parts which could function in any other way than in their complete and fully-designed form. In other words, they could not have \u201cevolved\u201d at all; they must have simply appeared on the scene, fully and completely functional\u201d (Eric n. Skousen, Ph.D., Earth in the Beginning, p. 109).\n\u201cNew varieties of life suddenly appear in the rock record with no ancestral precursors. Even the deepest fossiliferous rocks reveal fully developed life forms.\u201d In many textbooks careful attention is given to the succession of fossil horses that appear to have gradually developed into the modern, single-toed horse. Concerning each of the so-called intermediate stages, Dr. Salisbury notes that \u2018\u2026each of the intermediates is completely distinct from others in the series and appears suddenly in the record. There is no way of knowing that one of the so-called fossil horses gave rise by an evolutionary process to any other in the sequence\u2019 (Ibid., p. 110).\n\u201cAttempts to develop one species into another under carefully controlled laboratory conditions have succeeded about as well as the alchemist\u2019s attempt to turn lead into gold\u2026.We are, therefore, a long, long way from being able to accept the glibly stated hypotheses which seem to be taken for granted that [simple life forms developed into complex life forms] (Armin J. Hill, Some Matters to Keep in Mind When Treating Science and Religion, p. 6).\n\u201cFrom all the evidence at hand, [the hominids that predated Adam and Eve] had little in common with the advanced intelligences that the Father had chosen as his own spirit offspring, meaning of course, Adam and Eve and their descendants. From the evidence associated with their remains, it is clear that these\u2026 creatures differed in appearance, mental capacity, and in other significant ways from the modern human race\u2026.There is no genealogy from hominids to humans, just as there is no \u201cgenealogy\u201d of any life form\u201d (Skousen, p. 156, 7).\nhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-1r1R9ij58c&feature=related\nGo to The Fall of Adam.",

        "raw_content": "The Transgender Truth\nChildren of God, church, fruit, Identity Issues, Image, Prodigals, Roots, Transgender\nHot button subjects are not waters I like to wade into, but they are crossing over into mainstream life which will begin to alter the way we think if we do not hit it head on. Deception has a way of subtly sneaking into our thoughts, through music, movies, books, newspapers, and television shows. Whenever you add a message to music or a movie it solidifies that message in our thoughts in a way that just reading does not do. So, with this issue going public, I decided it was time to address the truth about the transgender issue.\nJeremiah 17:9-10 says, \u201cThe heart is hopelessly dark and deceitful, a puzzle that no one can figure out. But I, God, search the heart and examine the mind. I get to the heart of the human. I get to the root of things. I treat them as they really are, not as they pretend to be.\u201d (The Message)\nI like the way the Message bible translates this verse, because most Christians are really good at recognizing whether they believe fruit is good or bad and if it is bad they want to pluck it, throw it away and think by doing so it is gone. But the reality of a tree is that bad fruit is the product of a rotten root, the issue is not the fruit, it is the root. That is why in this translation it says, God goes to the root of things, for it you go to the root, you can change the fruit. So, as this pertains to the transgender issue what we are seeing is the fruit of a deeper unseen root.\nThe root of the transgender issue is one of identity. Transgender people are manifesting because people have an identity crisis. They don\u2019t know who they are. But the root goes even deeper, the reason they are having an identity crisis is because people have grown up fatherless. Fathers instill identity, so when fatherlessness is rampant, identity issues will take root and the fruits they produce are countless, but the root is an identity issue that came from fatherlessness. Now this is not a slam on men, for most men are products of fatherlessness themselves and they too have their own identity issue, that is why they don\u2019t themselves know how to be fathers.\nI believe the reason God is releasing the revelation of the Father, that songs are rising about Him being a good good Father is because, we are so in need of a Father, who will instill identity into us as sons and daughters. In the Parable of the Prodigal Son in Luke 15 we see the 5-fold restoration of God, the first thing a Father restores is relationship, no shame, no condemnation, no questions, no scolding, just an embrace, a restoration of the relationship. Next we see the restoration of identity, by the placing of the robe on the son, I Peter 2:9 says, we are a royal priesthood, the robe is a symbol of identity. Once the relationships is restored, the Father restores our identity. The only way this happens is by spending time with the Father. When we are fatherless, we fear getting close to the Father, so we talk about Him, sing about Him, but do not let our hearts get close to Him.\nJesus said, You honor me with your lips, but your hearts are far from Me (Matthew 15:18). The invitation from heaven is to come near, come to your senses, you are a son, you are a daughter of God, every human being was created in the image of God (Genesis 1:26), if you would turn toward Him He will run to you. Prodigals are not in the streets only, they are in the church and if we would return, we could show those in the streets who our Father is and then He would restore their identity as a son or daughter designed in His image. The transgender truth is not about malicious sexual, deviant or heinous sin, it is a cry for identity, it is a call for someone to show them the Father!\nSeparating the Spies\nSeparating the Spies 5.21.16\nIn the book of Numbers there is story about Moses sending out 12 spies, one from each of the tribes of Israel to see what the land God is sending them into looks like. These spies were to come back and report what they saw as they searched the land. Here is what Moses instructed them to do according to Numbers 13:17-20, \u201cSee what the land is like and see whether the people who live there are strong or weak, few or many. What kind of land do they live in? Is it good or bad? What kind of towns do they live in? Are they unwalled or fortified? How is the soil? Is it fertile or poor?\u201d Moses was seeking a detailed report of what they saw as they spied out the land God was giving them.\nThe Lord has sent out spies across America, He has instructed us to search the land and to bring back a report to the people of God. What kind of land do we have? What kind of country is America? What do you see? What are you hearing? What report do you have about the land, we call America? Whether people were professionally or publically commissioned to do this or if it was just in their heart to pay attention to America through the news, travel, other people\u2019s experiences or what they are hearing in the Spirit, God has sent out spies into the land. And now they are returning in droves with their report about what they saw. When the spies return, there is a separation of the spies.\nIn the book of Numbers 13, the bible says that 10 of the 12 spies came back with a bad report. That means the majority of people that went to spy out the land came back with a report that was negative based on what they saw in the natural. Many people are speaking about what they see in the natural and the report they are bringing back about America is negative. They proclaiming judgment, destruction, and a variety of other negative reports about this land we call America. Even people from other nations that hear about the decisions our nation makes are speaking one of two reports. But remember, the majority came back with a bad report and those who did were not allowed to enter the promised land. God does not like negative reports, no matter how factual they may seem to the person bringing it.\nThe spies are being separated right now, they are proclaiming out of their mouth what is in their heart and for the majority it is negative. But God, see something different for this nation. God sees the covenant that was made by the founding fathers, God sees who He created this nation to be, God sees the people in this land and the fruit of this land as a good thing, God sees America through the eyes of the minority that are speaking life, speaking blessing, speaking restoration, speaking the Truth as God sees it over this land. Isaiah 53:1 says, \u201cWhose report have you believed?\u201d The answer to this question will be critical in the very near future.\nThe spies have been separated, 10 have brought back a bad report, which produced fear in the people of God and 2, who are said to be of a different spirit, brought back a good report and they are the ones that get to lead the people of God into the promised land. It has been said many times that there is no promotion without a test. Well the test we just went through was the spy report test. I know many did not know they were taking a test, but the tests God gives us is to reveal what is in our hearts, so we can either make excuses or make adjustments once we see what is in our hearts. The test has been completed because the reports have come in and even though the majority speak things that produce fear, there are a few who say we can take this land. Whose report are you going to believe? I am going to believe the report of the Lord. We can take this land, it is a land flowing with milk and honey!\nDeborah\u2019s Arising\nAuthority, Deborah, dream, Jael, Prophecy, Prophetic Word, Signs and Wonders, women\nA prophetic word spoken through Elaine Tavolacci\u2026\nThe past few months there has been an increase in spiritual warfare against women. The Holy Spirit brought me back to a prophetic word that I had received last year. I had a dream of a great swarm of large, brightly colored yellow and black bumble bees flying around in my room as I was reading my bible. When I woke up I first interpreted the bees as being symbolic for spiritual warfare, but after further study the Lord revealed something totally contrary to that. In the book of Judges the prophetess Deborah\u2019s name means \u201cBee\u201d. The Lord also revealed to me that honey represents revelation. This is the word that the Holy Spirit gave me for the Deborah\u2019s who are arising.\nThe Lord says, I am raising up the Deborah\u2019s who will be leaders in the days ahead. They will become My voice as they carry My prophetic word to the nations. As they release My word, it will be as honey, bringing revelation. They will be righteous judges of the land, and bring a word of morality to the nations. They will move in great authority with signs following. As they set the captives free it will bring conviction and transformation. As the days grow darker, they will bring comfort to others as they distribute the milk and deliver the honey. They will shift the atmosphere wherever they go, and as they worship, strongholds will be destroyed. They will instruct others how to walk, how to war, and how to resist temptation. They will bring direction to those who are compliant to My word and correction to those who are in rebellion. They will carry a clear stream of My river because they are not tainted by the influence of darkness. Their eyes are clear because they are not being defiled by unclean images.\nThese women will no longer be dishonored or rejected as leaders. They will not be silenced any more by the church or by the media because I have placed My anointing upon them, and My authority within them. Do not refuse them as they will carry a two edged sword to divide the religious traditions of man, from the truth of My word. They will bring a clear distinction of the genuine prophetic word and uncover that which is deception and counterfeit.\nThese Deborah\u2019s will arise and defeat the taskmasters and those who are oppressing the body of Christ. They will always be successful in annihilating and exposing the assignments of the enemy. They will walk in a spirit of love and forgiveness and will not take offense when being confronted with opposition. You will know them by their fruit as they release My word to the nations, bring deliverance and release those who are bound says the Lord\u2026\u2026\nAmerican Pharoh, Heaven, Horses, Nyquist, Prophecy, Training, White Horse\nEvery horse that has the potential to be a champion, to be ridden, to be showcased, or to be used to pull something must be broken. When horses are born they are wild, they are reckless, they are unbroken. An unbroken horse is useless for service, but is comfortable, content and craves the wild. Wild horses run free, they have no rules, no constraints, no boundaries, but they also have no rider. An unbroken horse cannot be ridden, cannot be controlled, cannot be used in palaces, race tracks, stables or commercials. Unbroken horses must be broken in order to be ridden.\nRevelation 19:11 says, \u201cNow I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse. And He who sat on him was called Faithful and True\u2026\u201d\nOne of the scenes John saw in his heavenly visions was that of a white horse, whose rider was Jesus Himself, the verses go on to talk about the armies of God, following him, also riding on white horses. Every horse that has a rider on it, is a horse that has been broken, from the white horse in Revelation 19 to the newest Kentucky Derby winner Nyquist. A horse without a rider is unbroken and this is where we all started, but God in his wisdom, found a way to get us close enough to Him, so He could break us.\nOnce we are in the hands of the Master Trainer, Jesus, He must put a bit and bridle in our mouth. But His desire is not to keep it in our mouth, as Psalm 32:9 says, \u201cDo not be as the horse or as the mule which have no understanding, Whose trappings include bit and bridle to hold them in check, Otherwise they will not come near to you.\u201d You see some horses never leave the bit and bridle stage, because they will not obey without being forced to do so.\nBut the Lord\u2019s desire is to train you with bit and bridle so you have understanding, so you are broken. A broken horse is one that hears the voice of God and obeys immediately, there is no resistance, no rebellion, no reason to control them by bit and bridle. Even though horses have a rider on them, if they still have a bit and bridle on them, then they are not safe without those constraints.\nJesus has been breaking horses, you may feel as though this is what you have been going through. You have wanted to quit, you may have stopped and said, I have a rider on me, I can live with the bit and bridle, but I am here to tell you, He is breaking you not only so He can ride you, but so He can showcase you like a Clydesdale, so He can make you a triple crown champion like American Pharoh, and so He can use you to pull chariots. His desire is to get glory with you, but for that to happen He must break you. Many have been in pasture, in the stable, in the pen and it can be frustrating, but He is breaking you, He is training you, He is preparing you to cross the Jordan.\nJeremiah 12:5 says, \u201cIf you have run with footmen and they have tired you out, Then how can you compete with horses? If you fall down in a land of peace, How will you do in the thicket of the Jordan?\u201d\nYou\u2019re a horse, Jesus is your jockey and your trainer, you\u2019re in God\u2019s hands, don\u2019t worry He would not put this much work into you if He did not know you were a champion, so take heart, He\u2019s just breaking horses.\nTrading in Swords for Lightsabers\nLightsaber, Spiritual warfare, Star Wars, Sword, Weapons\nI love how God uses everything and wastes nothing. My son, who is 8 years old is a Star Wars fan, so the other day we went and bought a lightsaber. He explained to me why he had to have a blue and a green one, but not a red for that is the enemies light saber, he was on the side of Luke Skywalker, Yoda and Obie Won Kenobi. So, after getting a refresher course in Star Wars, because I was a kid when the original came out and we had lightsabers as well, we came home. A couple days later as I was in prayer the Lord spoke to me and said, \u201cIt is time to trade in the swords for lightsabers.\u201d At first I thought it was just me making up things in my head, but when I did some research on the word lightsaber, I became more and more convinced this was the word of the Lord and not just Lisa\u2019s hair brain idea.\nHere is what I learned about a lightsaber: 1. An elegant weapon; 2. It is used to cut through and blast doors or enemies alike; 3. It is the weapon of a jedi knight (trained warrior); 4. Used for close combat; 5. It can cauterize (removes undesired growths, used for treatment of wounds, stops severe bleeding loss, closes amputations, prevents infection) 6. Can be used to weld metal substances together; 7. Gives off a distinctive hum; 8. Everyone is a little different based on who built it.\nAs you can imagine my spiritual antenna is now up and I am listening more closely to what the Lord is telling me and I believe the body of Christ. We are according to Ephesians 6 in a spiritual battle that manifests in the natural, but nonetheless it is a spiritual war we are fighting. When swords are used, they are for natural enemies, like we see in Braveheart or Gladiator, with lots of bloodshed and loss of life. But in Star Wars it is a cosmic war, it is more like a spiritual battle and so the weapons we fight with are different than when we are fighting in a physical war. Selah!\nNow days later, I realize the lightsaber is our new weapon for this war. It is going to bring healing to those who are bleeding; it is going to sharpen those who are dull; it is going to open doors, defeat enemies and join people together. It will give off a distinct sound of authority that will be heard in the spirit, and each one is going to be a little bit different, because Jesus is the Master Builder and we are his lightsabers. I believe the warriors that have been trained in the word of God, will be the ones who you see and hear in the spirit with lightsabers. They will destroy the enemy with the word of God, while they heal the people with the same word. It is a double-edged sword in the spirit. It destroys the works of the enemy, while healing the wounds of people.\nNot everyone will carry a lightsaber, because the old wineskin likes their swords, their harsh words, their promises of destruction. But the new wineskin warriors have been trained with elegant weapons, new lightsabers and they are coming to heal the nations, set the people free, bind up the wounds of those who are bleeding and destroy the enemy in the spirit, not people in the natural. Their words will be kind, compassionate and tender, their love with be fierce, their mission clear and their Commander is Jesus Himself. For those who have been trained and equipped in the desert, in the cave, in the secret place, you know who you are and you know what the Lord said is true, we have traded in our swords for lightsabers, for we are fighting a new war.\nJohnny Enlow on Revolutionary Reformation\nA swirling revolutionary wind of reformation from heaven is about to descend on us in May and we will be under its\u2019 strong grip for the next 5 months. For many of us it will feel like decisions are being made for us and the shifts, changes, adjustments, placements and displacements will seem virtually out of our control. Faith, trust and worshipping God are the appropriate response and preparation for this season. This will be at a personal level, at a church level and at a national level. We are so out of order at every level that the Holy Spirit is coming in to bring order out of chaos. In many instances it will look like He is first bringing chaos out of order- but that would be a misread. Much of the \u201corder\u201d that exists is just the stale status quo. The status quo is about to be broken up in every area and in every way. Church is out of order, state is out of order and in many ways we are out of order.\nFor lack of expanded language- we are crying out and sensing \u201crevival\u201d but what is needed and what is coming is revolutionary reformation. 85% of American Christians are not regular church goers. Over 95% of the church goers don\u2019t tithe because they are not convinced it is Biblical. 75% of the pastors of these churches regularly think of quitting and struggle with depression. 15,000 pastors actually do quit or are fired every year usually over a moral issue. Without judging either side- this all just goes to establish that church and Christians need more than \u201crevival\u201d. We can call it \u201crevival\u201d but what we need is an overhauling reformation. We are not close to what church needs to look like so reviving what we have is not enough.\nFurthermore, perhaps only 1% of churches even attempt their Biblical assignment of \u201cequipping the saints for the work of the ministry\u201d. And then, maybe only 1% of those 1%, actually equip the saints for anything other than church ministry. The saints are to be equipped for their 9 to 5 assignments and that only begins to happen as one embraces some version of the 7 mountain mandate.\nIf you are shocked at my assessment of church and church life it is actually much worse than what I have so far stated. I believe that 95% of churches don\u2019t even have a grid for the kingdom of God and how it is coming. Additionally it is still more the exception than the rule that the Holy Spirit is given any priority in church settings. The church is also perhaps 100 years behind even society\u2019s light as to properly emancipating and empowering women. Sunday mornings are still the most racist and the most sexist hour in America. Find the list of the top 100 churches of America and you will find almost without exception something very ritualized, male dominated and male driven.\nSo how are we going to go from assembly-line model, Holy Spirit deprived, non-equipping, personal kingdom building, church- that is burning out both the pastors and the members- to a living, loving, relational, Holy Spirit-presence filled, societally engaged church? Only major Help from above is going to get us there- and that is what is coming. That Help is often going to look like a bulldozer. The Holy Spirit will fall on and ignite the new but it will also come in and just clear out spaces for the new. Most of us are not even in a good enough place to sort out how this will all happen. Blaming pastors is not the answer though it is the easiest thing to do. I was a senior pastor myself for 14 years and can tell you that at least 20% of members are \u201ctoxic members\u201d who go around from church to church leaving the debris of their own woundedness. We are going to begin to experience the extreme makeover of the church of Jesus Christ and we ALL need to make repentances and adjustments. We need new models of doing church but then most of all a greater embracement of love and forgiveness. This is a specific job for the Holy Spirit and He will be up for the task. He is going to pour His liquid fiery love over us all and it will be amazing what levels of unity, love, and humility that we will embrace that will allow us to begin to experience the profound changes that are coming. We will soon be doing more good than harm!\nThis same overhaul is coming now to government as the structural corruption has been made more evident even through this present election season. The underpinnings of both the Democratic and the Republican parties have been exposed as faulty. What the Lord will now allow to arise in government is more of a bulldozer than any sweet, gentle thing we might prefer. Bulldozers are not lovely machines but they are what is required as a preliminary stage to proper building taking place. I think many of you can feel and discern that this election feels totally out of our hands and as if we are just watching something that is taking place. The reason this feels that way is because this is what is happening. WE are not getting a real choice this election. HE is exercising His Sovereignty clause as Ruler of the Nations and specifically as Ruler of America. In the same way we don\u2019t really know how to fix ourselves as the church, we don\u2019t really know how to fix ourselves governmentally. HE does though and so we are going to be the beneficiaries of this outpouring of the Holy Spirit. We have been willing to settle for revival goosebumps, conversions and momentary joy- but what He wants for us is much more extensive. He will no longer just visit us- He is coming to make a place of habitation for Himself. What an awesome overhaul we are about to go through.\nFinally, this revolutionary reforming wind of the next 5 months is coming to us personally. I believe most of us are going to feel like we are in a centrifugal force of heaven that we just can not get out of. Doors are going to suddenly close and doors are going to suddenly open. Repositioning is going to hit many of us- some in geographical ways and some just in business or ministry re- positions. Some of you will find yourself going to places you said you\u2019d never go. Some of you will find yourselves voting for people you said you\u2019d never vote for. Some of you will begin to do what you\u2019d never thought you\u2019d never do. So many surprises coming- because He is personally committed to getting us out of the same stale ruts that affect church and government. The new wine is pouring already and He is now coming in with the new wineskins- so that what is being poured out not be wasted. It is all going to be better than we thought \u2013 but in the process of getting there the more trust and worship we have for Him the easier it is going to be. Let the revolutionary winds of reformation come!",

        "title": "Discovery: An Aural Road Trip with Chicago Ensemble",
        "raw_content": "Many years ago I went to a concert at the former Three Arts Club to hear a piece called \u201cFrom Frankenstein\u201d by my colleague Stefan Weisman. The concert was held by the Chicago Ensemble and Stefan\u2019s piece was on the bill because it had been selected for their \u201cDiscover America\u201d program.\nThe evening was an inspiration for me. The music was great, but I was also inspired by the ambitious mission of actively seeking out new music by little-known American composers. The idea of receiving several hundred musical scores in the mail and poring through one-by-one, looking for a gem to bring to life in a concert, is magical.\nThere\u2019s something magical about the program\u2019s name as well. Discover America conjures a lot of things; physically exploring the country, encountering the cultures that make up this country, learning of the personal journeys of the millions who have left, and continue to leave their homes to seek a better life here, and reflecting on the power that the word \u201cAmerica\u201d has had for so many people around the world, almost since the beginning.\nOr if you\u2019re like me, when you hear \u201cDiscover America\u201d you think immediately of a long and glorious road trip. I\u2019m an inveterate road-tripper and have at one time or another driven through nearly every state in the continental United States.\nIt began when I was sixteen and I turned a short drive to the Lake of the Ozarks into a spontaneous road trip. Rush\u2019s album \u201cFly by Night\u201d sounded so great on my new speakers that I kept on driving until I got to Arkansas, where I spent two days hiking in the National Forest in Hot Springs.\nI even loved the road trips that were borderline disastrous, like the time a couple of friends and I drove to Texas and my car broke down and we had to hunker down in a cheap motel in Odessa for two days, until we could sell the car for scrap to buy bus tickets back home.\nAt nearly thirty hours, that remains the longest bus trip I\u2019ve ever taken. I passed the time with a 900-page book of Dostoyevsky short stories and finally got off the bus in Columbia, Missouri, wild-eyed from lack of sleep and newly awakened to the darkness lurking in the human soul.\nBut a lot has changed since that \u201cDiscover America\u201d concert in 2004. Last year I drove to Missouri to visit family and stopped in Fort Leonard Wood at what Yelp told me was a brewpub, but which turned out to be a bar called Warheadz in a strip mall with a gravel parking lot.\nThe bar still allowed smoking and the air was thick with it. But there were pool tables and they were showing NBA games on TV, so I was seriously thinking of staying despite the smoke when the owner of the bar came over and asked what I thought I was doing. I told him I was thinking about having a beer and he basically told me to hit the road, I wasn\u2019t welcome. Somehow he\u2019d sussed me out as a liberal elitist, despite the fact that I grew up only a hundred miles or so from there and am fluent in the local idiom.\nI walked out to the parking lot, shoes crunching on the gravel, half wondering if some guys from the bar were going to follow me out and kick the shit out of me, and drove back to my motel room and thought hard about this bizarre encounter.\nMind you, road trips and our growing cultural divide are not what the Chicago Ensemble\u2019s pianist and artistic director Gerald Rizzer had in mind when he created \u201cDiscover America.\u201d The Chicago Ensemble began life as a more or less traditional classical music ensemble, and Rizzer developed a passion for programming and discovering American works over time.\nNonetheless, we live in a polarized era, and my recent Missouri experience is hardly unique. So I read about the Chicago Ensemble\u2019s upcoming \u201cDiscover America\u201d concert with great interest. Once again, Rizzer has selected a fascinating group of pieces from a broad range of composers born in, or with strong ties to, America, with the range that that word can imply.\nJoyce Wai-Chung Tang\u2019s \u201cReflections on Arirang\u201d makes use of fragments of folk tunes as rhythmic, melodic and harmonic basis. \u201cArirang\u201d is a Korean folk song, considered the unofficial national anthem, and there are thousands of variations on dozens of versions of the song, which is said to be more than six centuries old.\nMatthew Browne\u2019s \u201cOn the Immortality of a Crab\u201d is inspired by a Spanish concept meaning \u201cto let one\u2019s mind wander or daydream.\u201d Luzia von Wyl is a Swiss-born composer who effectively blends elements of jazz with American minimalism and other contemporary classical idioms in her \u201cAutumn.\u201d\nAlexander Timofeev is a Philadelphia composer whose work for clarinet and piano, \u201cPhoenix,\u201d represents the \u201cfiery yet sensitive beauty of the mythical Phoenix dying in its own sacred fire.\u201d And Chicagoan Roger Zare\u2019s \u201cTelescopic Variations\u201d is a musical representation of the \u201ctelescoping\u201d of an antenna, umbrella or\u2014yes\u2014telescope.\nEach of the pieces in this concert was selected for its musical excellence and demonstrated compositional craft, not out of a desire to paint a contemporary portrait of the nation, and it\u2019s not like the composers are concerned with this either. But it\u2019s hard not to be inspired by the sheer range of works and composers in the \u201cDiscover America\u201d canon and to equate it with a variety of cultures and experiences.\nI\u2019m positive I could have found shared ground with the owner of Warheadz if we had tried harder. I mean, we obviously share a passion for basketball, beer and billiards, and that\u2019s not nothing. It\u2019s true that I hate using the letter \u201cz\u201d to end plural words but, as with much else I suspect, we could just not talk about it. The key to unity it seems is knowing what not to talk about. With \u201cDiscover America\u201d there\u2019s no need to talk, just listen. We could use more of that.\nFebruary 2, 4PM at PianoForte, 1335 South Michigan (773)558-3448. $30 ($10 for students)\nChicago Ensemble\nFyodor Dostoyesvsky\nGerald Rizzer\nJoyce Wai-Chung\nPrevious Post Country from Another Country: A Preview of Kasey Chambers at the Old Town School of Folk Music\nNext Post Music Top 5: February 2019",

        "raw_content": "Natrona County Man to Face Prison Time for Three Sex Crimes\nA Natrona County man accused of repeated sex crimes against multiple people over a period of years entered into a plea agreement with prosecutors Monday morning in Natrona County District Court and is set to face prison time at his sentencing hearing.\nMichael Allen Griswold, 43, entered Alford pleas to one count of third-degree sexual abuse of a minor, one count of indecent liberties and one count of third-degree sexual assault. The third-degree charges each carry a maximum sentence of 15 years imprisonment, while the indecent liberties charge -- which is no longer part of Wyoming law, but was at the time the crime was allegedly committed -- carries a 10-year maximum.\nBy entering an Alford plea, a defendant does not admit that they are guilty of the crime charged, but they concede that the prosecution would likely be able to obtain a conviction at trial. For sentencing purposes, an Alford plea is functionally similar to a guilty plea.\nIn exchange for his pleas, Assistant District Attorney Kevin Taheri will recommend at sentencing that Griswold serve concurrent prison terms on the three counts. The plea deal calls for Griswold to serve eight to 13 years in prison.\nEach charge references a separate victim, with the youngest having been five or six years old at the time of the alleged abuse.\nGriswold was arrested Aug. 4, two days after an acquaintance of two of the victims reported the allegations to the Natrona County Sheriff's Office. In that initial report, the reporting party told an investigator that one victim claimed Griswold had forced her to have sex with him multiple times from the time she was seven years old until she turned 18.\nThe reporting party said that a second victim had then told her Griswold tried to put his hands down the victim's underwear, according to court documents. In reviewing the relationship between Griswold and that victim, the investigator determined \"the relationship qualified as incest as specifically listed in Wyoming State Statute.\"\nThe third-degree sexual assault charge to which Griswold pleaded on Monday alleged that Griswold, in the early 1990s, sexually assaulted a person who was physically helpless in the Alcova area.\nDistrict Judge Daniel Forgey on Monday ordered a presentence investigation report. A sentencing hearing will be set at a later date.\nGriswold remains free on bond pending sentencing.\nFiled Under: court, natrona county sheriff's office, prison",

        "raw_content": "My name is Hannah, I am 18, and this is my story with ADEM.\nOn the night of March 2nd, 2016, at about 10 pm, with nobody else getting home until 11 pm, I entered my shower and after two minutes I had a strange ringing in my ears and I suddenly felt dizzy, heavy headed, and was losing my balance. So I decided to sit down because that seemed like the best option, but all of a sudden, nausea hit me and I was vomiting on and off again for the next 30 minutes. After several attempts to reach my phone that was a couple of feet from my shower, I gave up because it was too challenging for me to do, consequently the only movement I could make was shifting my body into a more comfortable position on the ground. So there I lay for an hour, in my own vomit, cold and naked, terrified because I had no idea was happening, and unable to move. All I could do was pray in my head, sing hymns, and hope that any noise throughout the house was my family coming home. When my family arrived home I was taken to the emergency room where I was sent back to my house after a couple of hours because the doctors had tested me positive for flu.\nI had lost the ability to write, feed myself, walk, talk normally, drink, you name it. After about a week and a half I was placed in a full time rehab center. The next two weeks were painful as I tried to remember just how to walk, use my right arm, and talk in full sentences. It was a difficult process and often I shed many tears as I watched the last few months of my senior year, my senior track season, my senior prom, my senior powder puff game, all go down the drain. It was a very tough pill to swallow. Although it seemed like an eternity, I was slowly walking without any help when I checked out of the rehab center two weeks later. From there, I did outpatient therapy twice a week for four more weeks, where I was able to progress to jumping, balancing on my right leg, and coloring with my hand. When I left there my walking still wasn\u2019t great, and neither was my ability to write or speak, but they were improving.\nThis was and still is the hardest trial that I have had to endure in my life. There were many things that I was looking forward to at the end of my senior year, but what I was anticipating the most was track. I love to run and do hurdles, and after a season that ended badly last year, I was very determined to end things right. This meant training and weights all the time, but it was worth it to me. It was agonizing to watch my friends run their seasons, and then go on to win district, area, and regionals, and eventually advance to state. These were dreams that I wanted and worked so hard for, and I had to sit by and watch them happen. It was a painful time, but I\u2019ve come to realize that there are much more important things in life than running on a track. Some of those things are my selfless parents and siblings, relatives and friends, therapists, doctors, and the power of Jesus Christ and His Atonement. There are MANY more things, but I\u2019m just choosing to list those. There are always trials that we have to deal with, whether they be big or small, and not one of them is ever easy. They can cause disappointment, fear, tears, anger, crushed spirits, bitterness, and just the question \u201cwhy, why me?\u201d I can attest to having those feelings frequently, but I\u2019ve come to realize that it\u2019s not the way to go. They will dig you into a hole that is so hard to get out of, and it\u2019s a scary place to find yourself in. Even though this trial has been painful, I\u2019m so grateful that it has brought me closer to my family and friends, and made me realize what really matters in life. One of the most important things is that I\u2019ve grown closer to God, and I have never felt His love so much than I have now. I don\u2019t think I can say that ADEM was \u201ctruly a blessing in disguise\u201d yet, but there have been so many great things that have come from it that I am so grateful for. That doesn\u2019t mean I still don\u2019t struggle everyday with what happened in that awful month of March, but I also wouldn\u2019t take the trial back. It has given me perspective, maturity, and compassion that I would not have gained any other way, and for that I am eternally grateful. I would love for my story to help others through their own trials, so if you feel the need to call, text, or write me an e-mail, I would love to hear from you. Remember this, \u201cGod gives us difficulties to bring out the best in us.\u201d (Marvin J. Ashton)\nVideo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RXaJFkcht8E\nSydney Hannah Stanley",

A lengthy list of other recommended books about our biomedical system, science, drug discovery, and medicine can be found on his website at www.lymanbiopharma.com\nOverdiagnosed: Making People Sick in the Pursuit of Health by H. Gilbert Welch, Lisa Schwartz, and Steve Woloshin(2012) was one of those rare books that really changed my way of thinking. The author's premise is that, \"... overdiagnosis is the biggest problem caused by modern medicine.\" Like a lot of people, I thought that looking for problems in people who are asymptomatic could be useful in helping to find illnesses that had not yet manifested themselves. Welch makes a strong case for just the opposite: following this path actually winds up harming patients by putting them through follow-up tests that can result both in physical injury and psychological damage (from fear and worry). With many diagnostic tests or protocols one must screen hundreds, if not thousands, of people just to find one individual who has that problem. What used to be considered normal blood pressure is now regarded as high, and the same is true for cholesterol levels. The closer a test result is to the demarcation line between normal and \"sick\", the less likely it is that a person will be helped by treating that particular condition. Subjects covered in the book include mammograms, PSA tests, osteoporosis, abdominal aortic aneurysms, damaged knee cartilage, and cancer.\nAnother excellent and timely read is An American Sickness: How Healthcare Became Big Business and How You Can Take It Back by Elisabeth Rosenthal (2017). The book covers roughly the same territory as Maggie Mahar's Money Driven Medicine (2006), but has the advantage of being written after the Affordable Care Act became law. The author delves into numerous facets of our healthcare system and finds nearly all of them guilty of price gouging American consumers. This includes doctors, hospitals, medical billers and coders, insurance companies, drug and medical device makers, and those who develop and push unnecessary diagnostic tests. The overall conclusion is the same one reached in the earlier book. The medical industrial complex (a term coined in 1980 by Dr. Arnold Relman, former editor of the prestigious New England Journal of Medicine) has taken over our healthcare system and it is being driven by profits, not a need to help people. The latter part of the book is comprised of suggestions for how consumers can reclaim our healthcare system, but this is by far the weakest part of the book. The suggestions are on the face of it reasonable (challenge every bill, demand explanations for every test order or procedure experienced, etc). However, this would be incredibly time consuming for most people, and will lead to more frustrations when answers to the questions are not provided. It would be difficult to do under the best of circumstances, and even harder when one is battling a serious illness. More useful are the few pages in the back of the book directing the reader to resources that they can tap into to find help for specific problems.\nSupport for Patients and Caregivers Living with Chronic Illness\nLiving with Illness , a free monthly support group for those living with or impacted by chronic illness, facilitated by Carrie Pope, MSW, LICSW.\n6:30-7:30 pm, 4th Wednesday of the Month at the Seattle Public Library\nLiving Mindfully with Chronic Illness, a free supportive group for those wanting to live\nmindfully and with self-compassion and led by Bartja Wachtel, MSW, LICSW, MHP, CMH\n3:00 - 4:00 pm, 4th Wednesday of the Month at Aljoya Thorton Place Northgate\nFor questions or to sign up for the group/s, contact: info@thecenterforchronicillness.org or (425) 296-2705 or visit: www.thecenterforchronicillness.org\nSeptember 14 - Webinar on Chronic Illness - Register\nSeptember 19 - Safe and Sound in the Hospital Free Public Presentation - (FREE!) @ Skyline in Seattle - Presentation Information\nOctober 18 - 10am Patient No More - Sponsored by the Phinney Neighborhood Village\nNovember 2, 2017 - 9 am to 2 pm : WASHAA Annual Meeting -- Registration Coming Soon - Conference Details",

Linking this level with the more competitive levels of Mite, Squirt, Peewee, Bantam and Midgets in the Eastern Hockey Federation is a win for all involved.\nThere are more than 20 organizations involved at each of the Elite and Tier 1 levels this season.\nThe Boston Bandits and South Shore Kings are just two organizations that have teams at all levels, from Mite Development to tuition-free junior hockey in the National Collegiate Development Conference.\n\u201cThe union of the EHF and USPHL is a really good step, which will help to eliminate a disconnect between the youth and the midgets/juniors. It further explains to people what we\u2019re trying to do, to develop the kids all the way through,\u201d said Doug Shepherd, the Bandits\u2019 Director of Hockey.\n\u201cI was one of the founding fathers of the EHF in 2004, and I am on the executive board for the USPHL,\u201d added the Kings\u2019 president Rich Touzos. \u201cWe first merged the EHF with the split-season Midgets [i.e. the former Mass. Select League] to create the EHF Selects, and now with the USPHL, it was time to merge it all together because the EHF needed the structure of the USPHL to be able to handle it all.\u201d\nThe Kings and Bandits are hoping to spread the message of how a Mite Development through tuition-free junior hockey organization can benefit several hundred players each year, and create a family aspect across the ages.\n\u201cI think it is certainly possible you\u2019ll see a kid enter at Mite Development and exit 15 years later at the NCDC level,\u201d Shepherd added. \u201cEvery level was off on its own island before, and now the USPHL and EHF group has brought it all together. Young kids are aspiring to play on that team, and they\u2019ll attend the older kids\u2019 games.\u201d\n\u201cFor EHF programs that didn\u2019t have the junior aspect or full-season midget hockey, it gives those programs the opportunity to see what those levels are like,\u201d Touzos added.\nEHF Selects Split-Season Midget Division\nThe EHF Selects Division of the USPHL offers split-season midget hockey in some of the most accomplished programs in the United States.\nThe schedule that runs from late August until November allows EHF Selects players the opportunity to play for their prep school or high school teams as well. But when you\u2019re talking about programs like the Cape Cod Whalers, Boston Junior Eagles and Mid-Fairfield Jr. Rangers, this is definitely no \u201cwarm-up\u201d league.\nThere are five different divisions in the EHF Selects -- Elite U18 National-Bound, Elite U16 National-Bound, Elite U15 National-Bound, Tier 1 U18 National-Bound and Tier 1 U16 National-Bound.\n\u201cThe USPHL merger was a vehicle to get some of the best programs under one umbrella,\u201d said Pat Bohan, executive director of the Greater Boston Junior Bruins. \u201cYou get the best of both worlds - full-season teams [in the USPHL Midget Divisions], and also split-season midget teams [EHF Selects] that are more prep school-oriented.\u201d\nThe Greater Boston Jr. Bruins won the 18U Nationals back in 2006 and the 17U title in 2004. The Whalers were 18U National runners-up this past winter, and the Mid-Fairfield Jr. Rangers won it all at the 18U level in 2017, and the 16U Nationals in 2005. The Eastern Mass. Senators were 17U champions in 2000.\n\u201cOur goal is to showcase our boys and put them in front of as many eyes [of scouts] as we can, so that they can be rewarded at the collegiate level for all of their hard work.\u201d\nNational Collegiate Development Conference\nThe NCDC was introduced in 2017 as the United States\u2019 only tuition-free league entirely located in the Northeastern U.S., giving it the smallest travel footprint of any league of its type.\nThe league saw more than 120 players from its first season commit to NCAA colleges, with nearly half of those advancing to Division 1 - and this was from a league with 11 teams.\nNot only does the NCDC have a footprint keeping travel to 7 hours on the road or less one way, but the league\u2019s footprint nearly matches those of the Hockey East Association, ECAC Hockey, and Atlantic Hockey Association. Its proximity to the scouts allows for maximized Division 1 player exposure, and the footprint also matches those of several NCAA Division 3 conferences.\nTake it from someone whose teams have won the last two Dineen Cup (NCDC Playoff) championships.\n\u201cThe tuition-free model is in its infancy in this Northeastern U.S. area, although junior hockey overall is not,\u201d said Islanders Hockey Club head coach/GM Sean Tremblay. \u201cPlayers do not have to travel thousands of miles away to play tuition-free hockey. They can now do it in their backyard. The league is set up perfectly, geographically, both so players don\u2019t have to leave home and in terms of the geography of college hockey. It\u2019s just going to get better and stronger every year.\u201d\nUSPHL Premier/Elite Junior Divisions\nThe USPHL Premier Division is the United States Premier Hockey League\u2019s top developmental junior division, while the Elite serves as an additional developmental league. The Premier Division, a pay-to-play league like the Elite, has a vast footprint stretching from Minnesota to New England to Florida.\nThe Premier Division has multiple missions, including developing players for direct-to-NCAA college hockey advancement and being a proving ground before stepping up to higher levels of junior hockey, especially the NCDC.\nIn college terms, there were more than 160 direct-to-NCAA commitments, along with nearly 100 additional commitments to ACHA or NAIA schools from the Premier Division in 2017-18.\n\u201cIt\u2019s been good for us, especially with the showcases and the amounts of colleges at those showcases,\u201d said Brad Jones, GM of the Hampton Roads Whalers. The Whalers won the Premier and Elite championships in 2017-18. \u201cAll the events we do as a league help to advance the commitments. We had 16 players committed out of our Premier and Elite championship teams last year.\u201d\nThe Premier Division teams have formed affiliations with each of the NCDC teams, and these affiliations allow in-season promotions to the NCDC for practices and potentially games. The Premier Division also allows teams from some non-traditional markets to get in front of NCAA scouts from the Northeast and Midwest.\nSix teams joined from another Tier-3 league to take advantage of the USPHL\u2019s unmatched scouting, development and infrastructure, especially the aforementioned Affiliate Program.\n\u201c[One] big selling point was the Affiliate Program with the NCDC, which will be good for us,\u201d said Ken Miller, head coach/GM with the Toledo Cherokee. \u201cOur division was one of the strongest in our former league, and I believe we\u2019ll do very well when we head to the showcases.\u201d\nCollege scouts want the best players they can find, and they are not shy about traveling to Toledo or Florida to find that USPHL gem.\n\u201cI tell players asking about the USPHL and asking about playing in Florida \u2018Just look at the college commitments,\u2019\u201d said Florida Eels GM Frank Scarpaci. \u201cThey come back to me saying \u2018Wow, Coach, I know what you\u2019re talking about.\u2019\u201d\nUSPHL Midget Divisions (Full Season)\nThe area of the USPHL that has led from midsummer to September in NCAA Division 1 college commitments is in the USPHL Midget Divisions. The USPHL fields multi-tiered divisions at the 18U and 16U levels, and one tier of teams at the 15U level.\nFrom July to mid-September of this year, the Midget Divisions saw seven players make their commitments for future seasons at that highest of college hockey levels. The USPHL Midget Divisions have quickly become one of the most fertile of grounds for D-1 futures.\n\u201cObviously, the growth of the league is great. But for us, the best part of the league is still the footprint, with the opportunity to play so many games in New England with Hockey East, Atlantic Hockey and ECAC Hockey schools right there,\u201d said Skipjacks Hockey Club owner/head coach Jason Kersner. \u201cAlong with those Division 1 conferences, almost half of Division 3 hockey is within the footprint or all within short drives.\n\u201cThe Skipjacks have had the opportunity to be in other leagues, but the USPHL provides the best opportunity to play good competition in front of top schools on an every weekend basis,\u201d Kersner added.\nThe spark has ignited within the EHF and USPHL communities, and those organizations that do not have the full \u201cCradle to College\u201d Mite Development to Junior path are now considering building a similar model of their own.\n\u201cThe EHF and USPHL merger is providing the blueprint for what we look to do here in Virginia,\u201d said the Hampton Roads Whalers\u2019 Brad Jones. \u201cWe create our programming around the elements we have here, such as summer training with juniors. Also, the first three weeks of training camp, we have our Bantams and Midgets skating with us, to get them up to speed of how they need to play at this level.\n\u201cWe\u2019re trying to work that development curve in-house ourselves, so our players can go from our program to Tier 1 or Tier 2 (NCDC) juniors and on to college hockey,\u201d Jones added.\nJohn Schwarz, who is the Midwest Regional Commissioner for the USPHL Premier Division, said that teams from Minnesota to Michigan are also taking notice of how the New England teams with EHF, EHF Selects and USPHL teams run their comprehensive programs.\n\u201cIn the Midwest, our organizations have just the junior teams, but what the EHF and USPHL merger does is allow us to look at this concept,\u201d Schwarz said. \u201cMaybe we can start looking at our youth organizations and combining them with our junior teams.\u201d\nWith so many organizations now featuring the complete hockey road map, or considering creating their own, Sean Tremblay (Islanders Hockey Club) expects the interest to grow exponentially over the coming seasons.\n\u201cHaving the EHF-to-NCDC/Mite Development to Junior path is obviously at the forefront of modern amateur hockey,\u201d Tremblay added. \u201cTo have that development by professional coaches from 6 or 7 years old to 19 or 20 is very unique, not only to our Northeastern U.S. area, but unique to the whole country.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Blitzburghed: Bengals pick up pieces after another late loss\nCINCINNATI (AP) \u2014 The Bengals\u2019 depleted defense went with an all-out blitz, hoping to push the Steelers out of field goal range. Instead, Ben Roethlisberger threw a short pass that Antonio Brown turned into a 31-yard touchdown with 10 seconds left, and the Bengals\u2019 litany of last-second losses grew with another mindboggling finish.\nBrown\u2019s catch-and-run into the end zone gave Pittsburgh a 28-21 victory Sunday that evened up the AFC North and left the Bengals (4-2) trying to figure out what happens next. That final play will stick with them for a while.\nDefensive coordinator Teryl Austin said Monday that he decided to blitz in hopes of pushing the Steelers (3-2-1) out of Chris Boswell\u2019s range. The Steelers trailed 21-20 and could have won with a field goal.\n\u201cWe just decided to go after them,\u201d Austin said. \u201cI want our guys to play aggressive, we\u2019re playing to win, and they had a good play called.\u201d\nWhen Roethlisberger saw the Bengals had no safety guarding against a big play, he knew Brown would have a clear path to the end zone. He took the snap and quickly tossed it to Brown, who ran untouched for Pittsburgh\u2019s seventh straight win in the series.\nIn the aftermath, the Bengals were left trying to pick up the pieces of a defense that lost numerous players and is headed to Kansas City for a game Sunday night. The Chiefs (5-1) have one of the league\u2019s top offenses and are coming off a 43-40 loss to New England.\nLinebacker Nick Vigil left in the first quarter with an injured left knee and is out indefinitely. Cornerback Darqueze Dennard hurt his right shoulder late in the first half and didn\u2019t return. Safety Shawn Williams left with a concussion in the third quarter. Others were in and out of the lineup with injuries.\nThe defense starred in Cincinnati\u2019s solid start, scoring three touchdowns and finishing off three games by getting turnovers. With a chance to end the Bengals\u2019 streak of abysmal finishes against the Steelers, the defense failed to hold on.\nThe Steelers got the ball at their 23-yard line with 1:12 left and three timeouts. Roethlisberger completed passes of 8 and 10 yards to JuJu Smith-Schuster. A holding call on cornerback Dre Kirkpatrick provided a first down.\nRoethlisberger completed another pass that Smith-Schuster turned into a 23-yard gain and put them in field goal range with 15 seconds left and two timeouts. That play put the Steelers in position to pull it out.\n\u201cThat was one there that he found the hole in the coverage,\u201d Austin said. \u201cEvery coverage has got a little bit of a weakness in it, and where they hit us was right behind the linebackers and just in front of the safeties.\u201d\nAlthough Boswell has struggled this season, he has never missed a kick at Paul Brown Stadium. He had a game winner with 14 seconds left in Pittsburgh\u2019s 18-16 playoff victory in 2015. He had another on the final play of a 23-20 victory last December.\nAustin decided to take a chance with a blitz, hoping to drop a runner for a loss or sack Roethlisberger, rather than leave Boswell in position to kick another game winner.\n\u201cI didn\u2019t want to leave it into the field goal kicker\u2019s hands and allow him because it\u2019s not every day you block a field goal,\u201d Austin said.\nDEFENDING BURFICT: Coach Marvin Lewis declined again on Monday to address linebacker Vontaze Burfict\u2019s latest hit to Brown\u2019s head . Burfict hit Brown in the shoulder and helmet with his forearm as the receiver was being tackled by Shawn Williams and Jessie Bates.\nBrown was shaken up and left the game for a couple of plays. The officials didn\u2019t flag the play, but the NFL could discipline Burfict after reviewing it. Burfict was suspended by the league for hitting Brown in the head during the 2015 playoff game and was suspended for the start of the next season. He also was suspended for the first three games of the 2017 season for an egregious hit during a preseason game. He sat out the first four this year for violating the NFL\u2019s policy on performance-enhancing substances.\n\u201cEverybody makes a comment on everything that 55 does,\u201d Lewis said, using Burfict\u2019s number. \u201cThey don\u2019t comment on anything anybody else does, so let\u2019s leave it at that.\u201d",

        "title": "North Carolina's Meteoric Rise In The ACC - National Football Post",
        "raw_content": "North Carolina\u2019s Meteoric Rise In The ACC\nBy Christopher Paschal\nLast week, I said that Duke needed to win out in order to gain back first place in the Coastal, but North Carolina clearly had other plans. After a blowout win over the Blue Devils, UNC is now in complete control of the Coastal at 8-1. Pittsburgh is miles behind in second at 6-3. North Carolina was predicted to finish in 5th place in the Coastal, and ESPN\u2019s David Hale had them at 10th on his preseason power rankings. So, just how did we get to this point?\nNorth Carolina actually started off this season with a pretty bad close loss against South Carolina. Marquise Williams threw three interceptions, and the offensive just couldn\u2019t put points on the board. A late touchdown sealed it for the Gamecocks. It looked like the Tar Heels were destined to meet their expectations of 5th in the Coastal, or maybe worse.\nOver the next three weeks, North Carolina played three non conference teams in North Carolina A&T, Illinois, and Delaware. None of these teams is considered particularly good, but UNC racked up huge victories, scoring 142 combined points in the process. Marquise Williams didn\u2019t see a lot of playing time in those three games, but he made the most of his opportunities, throwing 5 touchdowns and rushing for 2 more. He started looking more and more like the athletic dual threat quarterback he was last year.\nSitting at 3-1, UNC began their ACC schedule with an away game at 2-2 (and falling fast) Georgia Tech. They forced 2 turnovers, Williams rushed for 148 yards and 2 touchdowns, Elijah Hood added 2 more rushing touchdowns, and UNC overcame a 21 point deficit to win. This game was huge for the Tar Heels. Georgia Tech was playing better than their record indicated, and many people still considered them to be a good team. UNC showed that they could overcome adversity against a solid team, and left Atlanta with a ton of confidence.\nAfter a blowout win over lowly Wake Forest and a solid victory over Virginia, UNC won another tough road game 26-19 against #23 Pittsburgh. It would be their seventh game of the year holding an opponent under 20 points, a surprising stat considering their defense was very underwhelming last season. The defense was playing well, and Marquise Williams was giving them consistent results in both the passing and rushing game. Elijah hood was also emerging as a very solid running back. UNC finished the week ranked at #21 in the AP Poll.\nHeading into a heated game with rivals Duke, most people expected a tightly contested battle between two good teams. Instead, they got a UNC offensive onslaught. The Tar Heels put up 66 points on an elite Duke defensive, by far the most they\u2019ve conceded all season. Williams threw for 494 yards (a school record) and four touchdowns while adding one rushing score, and Hood ran in three scores himself. They were firing on all cylinders, racking up 704 yards and forcing 3 turnovers. It was a complete domination of the Blue Devils. UNC moved up to #17 in the AP Poll after the victory.\nAt this point in the season, a much-improved defense has been the key to UNC\u2019s success. This is in stark contrast to a year ago when their electric offense had to score 35+ points per game to win in spite of a disappointing defense. Now UNC is only conceding 18.55 points per game, good for 22nd in the country. As stated above, they\u2019ve only allowed two opponents to go over 20 points in a game. By doing this, they are giving the offense a chance to relax. Last year, Williams needed to play like a maniac to get his team to score enough points to stay in the game. This year, he can take on more of a game-managing role and let the opportunities come to him instead of the other way around.\nIn ACC games: @1MjWilliams2 is 1st in pass efficiency, 1st in yards per pass attempt, 2nd in pass yards per game, 2nd in pass TDs.\n\u2014 Carolina Football (@TarHeelFootball) November 8, 2015\nMoving forward, there is no reason North Carolina can\u2019t go 3-0 to finish the season. Their remaining opponents are Miami, Virginia Tech, and NC State. ESPN FPI has them favored in each of those matchups. Making it a little tougher, they must go on the road agains VT and NC State. If UNC can finish the regular season at 11-1, they should be a top-15 team. They were left out of the initial Playoff Rankings, but they should start gaining more respect each week.\n8-1 #StillHungry\n\u2014 Jeff Schoettmer (@schoettcalla) November 7, 2015\nEither way, barring any crazy turn of events, North Carolina will play Clemson for the ACC Championship next month. While Clemson is a great team, North Carolina will absolutely have the chance at an upset. They\u2019ve grown to become a mature team that can win tough games, and a game against Clemson would be just that.\nIf Deshaun Watson has a bad game, and Marquise Williams plays well, put Clemson on upset alert. Hypothetically, it would be a interesting situation if North Carolina were to pull off the upset. They could be 11-1, have a win against the #1 team in the country, and be a conference champion. If more top teams continue to falter, consider North Carolina a dark horse to make the Playoff.",

        "raw_content": "Cloud and the Death of E-Rate\nSeems today you can\u2019t throw a rock with hitting someone talking about the cloud. There\u2019s cloud in everything from the data center to my phone to my TV. With all this cloud talk, you\u2019d be pretty safe to say that cloud has its detractors. There\u2019s worry about data storage and password security. There are fears that cloud will cause massive layoffs in IT. However, I\u2019m here to take a slightly different road with cloud. I want to talk about how cloud is poised to harm your children\u2019s education and bankrupt one the most important technology advantage programs ever.\nGo find your most recent phone bill. It doesn\u2019t matter whether it\u2019s a landline phone or a cell phone bill. Now, flip to the last page. You should see a minor line item labeled \u201cFederal Universal Service Fee\u201d. Just like all other miscellaneous fees, this one goes mostly unnoticed, especially since it\u2019s required on all phone numbers. All that money that you pay into the Universal Service Fund is administered by the Universal Service Administrative Company (USAC), a division of the FCC. USF has four divisions, one of which is the Schools and Libraries Division (SLD). This portion of the program has a more commonly used name \u2013 E-Rate. E-Rate helps schools and libraries all over the country obtain telecommunications and Internet access. It accomplishes this by providing a fund that qualifying schools can draw from to help pay for a portion of their services. Schools can be classified in a range of discount percentages, ranging from as low as 20% all the way up to 90% discount rates. Those schools only have to pay $.10 on the dollar for their telecommunications services. Those schools also happen to be the ones most in need of assistance, usually because of things such as rural location or other funding challenges.\nE-Rate is divided into two separate pieces \u2013 Priority One and Priority Two. Priority One is for telecommunications service and Internet access. Priority One pays for phone service for the school and the pipeline to get them on the Internet. The general rule for Priority One is that it is service-based only. There usually isn\u2019t any equipment provided by Priority One \u2013 at least not equipment owned by the customer. Back in 1997, the first year of E-Rate, a T1 was considered a very fast Internet Circuit. Today, most schools are moving past 10Mbit Ethernet circuits and looking to 100Mbit and beyond to satisfy voracious Internet users. All Priority One requests must be fulfilled before Priority Two requests will begin to be funded. One USAC starts funding Priority Two, they start at the 90% discount percentage and begin funding requests until the $2.25 billion allocated each year to the program is exhausted. Priority Two covers Internal Connections and basic maintenance on those connections. This is where the equipment comes in. You can request routers, switches, wireless APs, Ethernet cabling, and even servers (provided they meet the requirements of providing some form of Internet access, like e-mail or web servers). You can\u2019t request PCs or phone handsets. You can only ask for approved infrastructure pieces. The idea is that Priority Two facilitates connectivity to Priority One services. Priority Two allocations vary every year. Some years they never fund past the 90% mark. Two years ago, they funded all applicants. It all depends on how much money is left over after all Priority One requests are satisfied. There are rules in place to prevent schools from asking for new equipment every year to keep things fair. Schools can only ask for internal connections two out of any five given years (the 2-of-5 rule). In the other three years, they must ask for maintenance of that equipment.\nThere has always been a tug-of-war between what things should be covered under Priority One and Priority Two. As I said, the general rule is that Priority One is for services only \u2013 no equipment. One of the first things that was discussed was web hosting. Web servers are covered under Priority Two. A few years ago, some web hosting providers were able to get their services listed under Priority One. That meant that schools didn\u2019t have to apply to have their web servers installed under Priority Two. They could just pay someone to host their website under Priority One and be done with it. No extra money needed. This was a real boon for those schools with lower discount percentages. They didn\u2019t have to hope that USAC would fund down into the 70s or the 60s. Instead, they could have their website hosted under Priority One with no questions asked. Remember, Priority One is always funded before Priority Two is even considered. This fact has lead to many people attempting to get qualifying services setup under Priority One. E-mail hosting and voice over IP (VoIP) are two that immediately spring to mind. E-mail hosting goes without saying. Priority One VoIP is new to the current E-Rate year (Year 15) as an eligible service. The general idea is that a school can use a VoIP system hosted at a central location from a provider and have it covered as a Priority One service. This still doesn\u2019t cover handsets for the users, as those are never eligible. It also doesn\u2019t cover a local voice gateway, something that is very crucial for schools that want to maintain a backup just in case their VoIP connectivity goes down. However, it does allow the school to have a VoIP phone system funded every year as opposed to hoping that E-Rate will fund low enough to cover it this year.\nWhile I agree that access to more services is a good thing overall, I think we\u2019re starting to see a slippery slope that will lead to trouble very soon. ISPs and providers are scrambling to get anything and everything they can listed as a Priority One service. Why stop at phones? Why not have eligible servers hosted on a cloud platform? Outsource all the applications you can to a data center far, far away. If you can get your web, e-mail, and phone systems hosted in the cloud, what\u2019s left to place on site in your school? Basic connectivity to those services, perhaps. We still need switches and routers and access points to enable our connectivity to those far away services. Except\u2026the money. Since Priority One always gets funded, everything that gets shoveled into Priority One takes money that could be used in Priority Two for infrastructure. Schools that may never get funded at 25% will have their e-mail hosting paid for, while a 90% school that could really use APs to connect a mobile lab may get left out even though they have a critical need. Making things Priority One just for the sake of getting them funded doesn\u2019t really help when the budget for the program is capped from the beginning. It\u2019s already happening this year. E-Rate Year 15 will only fund down to 90% for Priority Two. That\u2019s only because there was a carry over from last year. Otherwise, USAC was seriously considering not funding Priority Two at all this year. No internal connections. No basic maintenance. Find your own way schools. Priority One is eating up the fund with all the new cloud services being considered, let alone with the huge increase in faster Internet circuits needed to access all these cloud services. Network World recently had a report saying that schools need 100Mbps circuits. Guess where the money to pay for those upgrades is going to come from? Yep, E-Rate Priority One. At least, until the money runs out because server hosting is a qualifying service this year.\nMost of the schools that get E-Rate funding for Priority Two wouldn\u2019t be able to pay for infrastructure services otherwise. Unlike large school districts, these in-need schools may be forced to choose between adding a switch to connect a lab and adding another AP to cover a classroom. Every penny counts, even when you consider they may only be paying 10-12% of the price in the first place. If Priority One services eat up all the funding before we get to Priority Two, it may not matter a whole lot to those 90% schools. They may not have the infrastructure in place to access the cloud. Instead, they\u2019ll limp along with a T1 or a 10Mbps circuit, hoping that one day Priority Two might get funded again.\nHow do we fix this before cloud becomes the death mask for E-Rate? We have to ensure that USAC knows that hosting services need to be considered separately from Priority One. I\u2019m not quite sure how that needs to happen, whether it needs to be a section under Priority Two or if it needs to be something more like Priority One And A Half. But lumping hosted VoIP in with Internet access simply because there is no on-site equipment isn\u2019t the right solution. Since a large majority of the schools that qualify for E-Rate are lower elementary schools, it makes sense that they have the best access to the Internet possible, along with good intra-site connectivity. A gigabit Internet circuit doesn\u2019t amount to much if you are still running on 10Mbps hubs (don\u2019t laugh, it\u2019s happened). If USAC can\u2019t be convinced that hosted services need to be separated from other Priority One access, maybe it\u2019s time to look at raising the E-Rate cap. Every year, the amount of requests for E-Rate is more than triple the funding commitment. That\u2019s a lot of paperwork. The $2.25 billion allocation set forth in 1997 may have been a lot back then, but looking at the number of schools applying today, it\u2019s just a drop in the bucket. E-Rate isn\u2019t the only component of USF, and any kind of increase in funding will likely come from an increase in the USF fees that everyone pays. That\u2019s akin to raising taxes, which is always a hot button issue. The program itself has even come under fire both in the past and in recent years due to mismanagement and fraud. I don\u2019t have any concrete answers on how to fix this problem, but I sincerely hope that bringing it to light helps shed some light on the way that schools get their technology needs addressed. I also hope that it makes people take a hard look at the cloud services being proposed for inclusion in E-Rate and think twice about taking an extra bucket of water from the well. After all, the well will run dry sooner or later. Then everyone goes thirsty.\nI am employed by a VAR that focuses on providing Priority Two E-Rate services for schools.

Mayor Mohammad Bagher Qalibaf is considered a likely rival to Mr Ahmadinejad in the 2009 presidential election. \"This is an important event. It shows that conservatives are distancing themselves from radicals headed by Ahmadinejad,\" said Saeed Laylaz, an Iranian political analyst and columnist, yesterday. Mr Qalibaf is a conservative who backs the Islamic regime, but also a pragmatist who has stressed efficiency over hardline ideology in running Tehran. The mayor's re-election is regarded as a reflection of pragmatic conservatives' increasing discontent with Mr Ahmadinejad's harsh anti-Western rhetoric and his failure to improve Iran's weak economy. Tehran city council members were under tremendous pressure from the government not to vote for Mr Qalibaf, who won the backing of eight of the council's 15 members.\nThe Plank, Person Career, Tehran, Political Relationship, Mayor, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, Mohammad Bagher Qalibaf",

        "raw_content": "Grodan awarded European Ecolabel\nRoermond, The Netherlands, 21 April 2007\nFirst substrate producer with EU Ecolabel\nGrodan, supplier of innovative substrate solutions for the greenhouse industry, is the first substrate producer that has been rewarded with the European Ecolabel: the environmental quality mark of the European Union for non-food products and services. The fact that Grodan\u2019s blocks and slabs have been awarded this quality mark once again demonstrates that Grodan considers sustainable business practices to be very important and that its substrate solutions comply with the most stringent environmental criteria. These certified products can be recognised by the \u2018EU flower\u2019 logo.\nMrs Regien van der Sijp (SMK) and Mr. Kees Struijk (Grodan)\nThe European Ecolabel was formed by the European Union in 1992 to encourage manufacturers to produce environmentally friendly products and to enable buyers to make conscious and reliable decisions in terms of the environment. To that end, the organisation developed a broad range of criteria for many products and services. The criteria for growing media were recently revised and expanded so they now also apply to products based on inorganic material such as mineral wool.\nThe criteria that apply to the origin of mineral ingredients are strict. For example, they may not come from nature reserves or protected areas. Additional aspects considered include energy and water conservation and the reduction of soil, air and water contamination during production. The recycling of inorganic growing media is also considered. In addition to environmental criteria, the products also have to comply with quality criteria. In other words, the European Ecolabel guarantees buyers that these products comply with both environmental and quality standards. It therefore demonstrates that quality and environmentally responsible business practices can go together very well.\nMrs. Regien van der Sijp, Managing Director at SMK, the organisation which helped formulate the criteria for the European Ecolabel and which represents the environmental quality mark in the Netherlands, is pleased with the certification awarded to Grodan: \u201cWhen a leading player in the horticultural sector such as Grodan succeeds in obtaining the European Ecolabel certification for its products, it has a significant impact, not only on the horticultural sector but also on a larger scale. It will encourage other parties to also make an effort to have their products certified and that, of course, is good for the environment.\u201d\nMaurice Husson, Managing Director of the Grodan Group, is proud of the certification of Grodan\u2019s products. \u201cFor years now, we have focused on three core themes in order to achieve optimum results: People, Planet and Profit. In other words, we aim to run our company in such a way that we can balance business interests with the interests of people and the environment. Everything we do is based on this. As a result, we have succeeded in obtaining a series of certifications over the years, including ISO 14001, ISO 9001:2000 and the KIWA product certificate. In my view, the European Ecolabel is again a confirmation of how we want to do business.\nInformation on Ecolabel:",

        "raw_content": "Mercedes-Benz models 190 E 2.5-16 and 560 SE will be eligible for the coveted \u201cH\u201d registration plate in 2018\nPosted on 7, December 2017 by EuropaWire PR Editors | This entry was posted in Automotive, Germany and tagged \"H\" registration plate, Mercedes-Benz 190 E 2.5-16, Mercedes-Benz 560 SE. Bookmark the permalink.\nThree decades ago, two exclusive Mercedes-Benz models celebrated their premiere: The 190 E 2.5-16 (201 series) prepared the way for the then compact class to become a star performer, while the 560 SE (126 series) combined the top performance of the flagship S-Class model with the more dynamic handling of the shorter wheelbase. Next year the first examples of these two models will be 30 years old. Which makes them eligible for the coveted \u201cH\u201d registration plate. This is itself celebrating its 20th birthday in 2017: it was first issued in the Federal Republic of Germany in 1997.\nSTUTTGART, 07-Dec-2017 \u2014 /EuropaWire/ \u2014 All in all, fewer than 7000 examples of these rare Mercedes-Benz models were produced after they celebrated their premiere at the Paris Motor Show in September 1988: No more than 5743 units of the Mercedes-Benz 190 E 2.5-16 high-performance saloon were produced between 1988 and 1993. And between 1988 and 1991, just 1252 units of the Mercedes-Benz 560 SE were produced. That makes this short-wheelbase version of the S-Class a much rarer classic than its sister model, the 560 SEL (75,071 units).\nThe top S-Class model celebrated its premiere at the International Motor Show (IAA) in Frankfurt/Main in September 1985. The 560 SEL is \u201cquite simply the largest, fastest and best equipped passenger car currently produced by Daimler-Benz,\u201d wrote the motoring magazine \u201cauto motor und sport\u201d in edition 19/1987. So was it not only logical to make this sporty, luxurious performance available in a model with a short wheelbase as well (2930 rather than 3070 millimetres)? Precisely that was achieved by the Mercedes-Benz 560 SE presented in 1988, which was likewise powered by a V8 engine with a displacement of 5547 cc and developed 220 kW(300 hp) at 5000 rpm. With the emissions control system using a three-way catalytic converter (standard equipment in Germany), the output was 205 kW (279 hp) at 5200 rpm.\nThe 190 E 2.5-16 was conceived as a sporty high-performance saloon. Its engine was based on the sixteen-valve four-cylinder of the 190 E 2.3-16. The engineers opted for an increase in the stroke as a decisive measure to increase output to 143 kW (195 hp). Externally the sporty high-performance saloon was substantially identical to its predecessor. New features included the metallic paint finishes \u201calmandine red\u201d and \u201castral silver\u201d as alternatives to \u201cblue black\u201d and \u201csmoke silver\u201d. In its Evolution stages I and II, of which a small series of 500 examples each was built in 1989 and 1990, the 190 E 2.5-16 was the basis for the highly successful Group A racing touring cars which AMG-Mercedes used in the German Touring Car Championships (DTM). Between 1988 and 1993 Mercedes-Benz won two constructors\u2019 titles (1991 and 1992), and Klaus Ludwig became DTM champion in the 190 E 2.5-16 Evolution II in 1992.\nIn 2018 the first examples of these two rare Mercedes-Benz classics will be 30 years old. This means that they can be registered with an \u201cH\u201d registration plate. This historical registration plate recognises original, well-preserved vehicles as technical and cultural heritage, and it is also accompanied by tax concessions. The \u201cH\u201d registration plate was first issued 20 years ago, in summer 1997. In that first year a total of 13,500 classic vehicles were registered.

        "title": "Drone Start-Up, Airware, Announces Closure - HobbyKing News",
        "raw_content": "Californian based drone start-up company, Airware, recently announced its closure. According to the company, Airware was one of the first commercial drones in the marketplace. Having specialised in data collection and analytics through drone technology for the purposes of insurance, construction and general property management. Airware certainly was \u2018pioneers\u2019 in bringing drones into the commercial sector.\nOne of the major contributor\u2019s factors for their closure is described in a press release on their website. The company says: \u201cUnfortunately, the market took longer to mature than we expected.\u201d Despite, their greatest efforts, the effects of a long maturing market put them under great financial pressure.\nThe company previously raised over $118 million from investors such as Andreessen Horowitz, Google\u2019s GV and Kleiner Perkins. Despite, it\u2019s large investments, according to TechCrunch, Airware \u2018burned\u2019 through it all. A source tells the publication \u201cI think having $118M in the bank led Airware to charge ahead and sink tons of money into force-it-to-work methods rather than exercise a bit of patience and wait for the inevitable advance of hardware to catch up.\u201d The source shares how the company \u2018spared no expense\u2019 by hiring very expensive, albeit talented, staff with experience from places such as Google, SpaceX and even NASA.\nWhile RC hobbyists have become quite accustomed to seeing their favourite RC shops, distributors and manufacturers fold, it\u2019s not often that drone companies have to shut its operations. Although considering the current legislative climate, and the competition around drone technology, we can\u2019t say it\u2019s all that surprising either.\n\u201cHistory has taught us how hard it can be to call the timing of a market transition. We have seen this play out first hand in the commercial drone marketplace. We were the pioneers in this market and one of the first to see the power drones could have in the commercial sector. Unfortunately, the market took longer to mature than we expected. As we worked through the variously required pivots to position ourselves for long-term success, we ran out of financial runway. As a result, it is with a heavy heart that we notified our team, customers, and partners that we will wind down the business.\nThis is not the business outcome we had worked so hard for over the years and yet we are deeply proud of our company\u2019s accomplishments and our leadership in driving the adoption of drone-powered analytics to improve productivity, mitigate risks, and take workers out of harm\u2019s way. As we close the book of Airware; we want to thank the partners and customers who believed in us and helped us along the way. And, while it is difficult to say goodbye to our team, we want to thank them for all they have contributed to Airware and the industry. We look forward to seeing how they will take their learnings from Airware to fuel continued innovations in the world around us.\u201d\nPrevious: Painting Models with a Humble Brush\nNext: How to Setup Differential Thrust",

        "raw_content": "Neocate Formula Linked with Potential Increased Risk of Fractures\nInfants and young children who are allergic to regular cow\u2019s milk and have a soy allergy may require an anti-allergenic alternative formula. The \u201cNeocate\u201d brand is one of the most popular brands of substitute formulas available, but recent reports and studies have linked the products to an increased risk of bone fractures and rickets in young children.\nThere has also been at least one case of a parent being accused of child abuse because of unexplained fractures. It was only after the father saw a commercial indicating that Neocate, which the child had been using, was potentially linked to fractures that the case was resolved.\nStudy Links Neocate Formula to Bone Problems\nAccording to Neocate\u2019s website, their formula products are specially made for the dietary management of children with cow milk allergy, multiple food allergies, and related conditions. They are dairy free and soy oil free, and are considered \u201camino-acid-based\u201d formulas that are designed to prevent an allergic reaction.\nIn a recent study published in the scientific journal Bone, scientists found evidence of a link between Neocate formula and a condition called \u201chypophosphatemia\u201d\u2014an abnormally low level of phosphate in the blood\u2019\u2014and related bone problems. They identified 51 children at 17 institutions with amino-acid-based formula-associated hypophosphatemia, and most had been fed only Neocate formula products. The doctors detected the condition while evaluating the children for fractures and rickets, a vitamin-D deficiency that results in soft and deformed bones.\nIn 94 percent of the cases, the children had fractures, undermineralization, or rickets. Most of the children improved when they were changed to a different formula product or given supplemental phosphate.\nThe results, the researchers wrote, \u201cindicated a deficient dietary supply or severe malabsorption of phosphate, despite adequate formula composition. When transition to an alternate formula was possible, biochemical status improved shortly after introduction to the alternate formula, with eventual improvement in skeletal abnormalities.\u201d\nMan Investigated by Child Protective Services Because of Child\u2019s Fractures\nParents who are feeding their children Neocate should be on the lookout for related nutritional deficiencies that can lead to bone problems. A recent report in the Clarion Ledger tells the story of a Mississippi father who was investigated for child abuse after his 10-year-old boy suffered from multiple unexplained fractures. The boy had cerebral palsy along with other medical problems, and used a feeding tube and wheelchair.\nNoticing his son was holding his wrist in a protective way, the father took him to a doctor, and the boy was diagnosed with a wrist fracture. Shortly after that, the Mississippi Department of Child Protection Services started investigating. A month later, doctors diagnosed another fracture in the boy\u2019s left thigh.\nIt was only after the father hired an attorney that child services inquiry was closed. By that time, the boy\u2019s father had detected the most likely source of the issue: Neocate. He had seen a commercial indicating the formula had been linked to fractures, and noted that Neocate was the sole source of his son\u2019s nutrition.\nThe boy spent five months in the hospital to wean off Neocate. Other parents who are using the product are advised to check with their doctors about regular blood tests to evaluate phosphate levels.",

Recently it\u2019s been a spate of warnings about the dangers of texting while driving.\nAnd now we have reports of a condition dubbed \u201cdigital dementia\u201d that\u2019s supposedly plaguing teens and Millennials.\nThis phenomenon is being reported out of South Korea, a country that happens to have the highest rate of smartphone adoption in the world. More than two thirds of all South Korean adults have a smartphone, and among teenagers, it\u2019s nearly as high (~64%).\nIndeed, according to the country\u2019s Ministry of Science, smartphone adoption by South Korean teens has jumped more than 200% since 2011 when it was less than 22%.\nSo what is \u201cdigital dementia\u201d? It\u2019s described as the deterioration in cognitive abilities that comes from an imbalanced development of brain functions.\nCommenting on the use of smartphones and gaming devices among young people, \u201cHeavy users are likely to develop the left side of their brains, leaving the right side untapped or underdeveloped,\u201d claims Byun Gi-won, a physician at the Balance Brain Centre in Seoul.\nAccording to Dr. Gi-won, such overuse results in symptoms that are more commonly observed in people who have psychiatric illnesses or have suffered head injuries.\nThe country\u2019s Ministry of Science estimates that nearly one in five South Koreans ages 10-19 use their smartphone seven hours per day or more. That\u2019s up sharply from around 10% doing so just a year before.\nIs the phenomenon of \u201cdigital dementia\u201d among the young confined to South Korea or East Asia? Manfred Spitzer, a professor of neuroscience in Germany, thinks not. He\u2019s the author of a book on digital dementia that was published in 2012, wherein he warned of the dangers of allowing children to spend too much time on electronic devices such as tablets, smartphones and game devices.\nDo you recognize this face? Dr. Manfred Spitzer, author of \u201cDigital Dementia.\u201d\nIn fact, Dr. Spitzer maintains that deficits in brain development are irreversible. His solution: Ban digital media from German classrooms completely.\nDream on, professor. That\u2019s certainly not going to happen!\nLikewise, we have a recent study from the University of Southern California at Los Angeles that points to increasing memory problems among people ages 18-39. The UCLA report blames \u201cmodern lifestyles,\u201d claiming that the many digital gadgets within easy reach of young people prevent them from developing memorization skills and other forms of focus.\nOn the other hand, that same UCLA study concludes that for some older patients suffering from mental decline, engaging in brain-fitness computer games like Luminosity or Posit Science\u2019s Brain HQ have improved their language and memory skills significantly.\nConsidering that age-related memory decline affects as many as 40% of older adults, that UCLA finding may turn out to be as noteworthy on the positive side of the ledger as the South Korean one on the negative side about young people.\nLike any other \u201ctransformational\u201d technology, the digital revolution continues to play out in unexpected ways. Somehow, I expect us to be hearing many more reports of this type as the years roll on.\nNot that these theories of cognitive weakness don\u2019t have their detractors. You can read several strongly worded retorts here and here.\nWhat do readers think? Big news \u2026 or bunk? Please share your thoughts here.\n\u2190 The $25 Tweet\nCollege Kids and their \u201cGadget Goodies\u201d \u2192\n4 thoughts on \u201cWelcome to Modern Times\u2019 Newest Malady: \u201cDigital Dementia.\u201d\u201d\nSyed Tahir Rasul says:\nIn the 1990s, we were taught that playing computer games would even sharpen our mental skills. But now this enormous increase in gadgets \u2014 and that too in the hands of five-year olds (or even four at times) is certainly alarming.\nThis is causing some sort of disorder for sure. But then again, we can\u2019t live without these gadgets now! \ud83d\ude42\nWell, I heard about two studies, conducted a few years back, that came to curiously similar conclusions: Kids who read texts in digital formats tend not to retain as much information as when they read similar texts on sheets of paper.\nThis was brought to my attention by a foreign language professor at Boston University. Since language learning inevitably involves the memorization of large new lexicons, and since so much language instruction has been migrating to digital platforms, this got his attention.\nIt really is important science, because it begs another question: Is the new online classroom in fact all it\u2019s cracked up to be? Or is there something about a computer screen that really does cause a \u201cdeterioration in cognitive abilities\u201d? If so, what is the proper place of computer-assisted learning?

        "raw_content": "Music: Terje Rypdal - Vossabrygg\nI saw this paddle steamer on Glenmore Reservoir this afternoon. It is part of Heritage Park, which I've never visited in all my time in Calgary. I should make a point of going there sometime this summer. We were on a hiking trail beside the reservoir, searching for a few geocaches, when we saw the boat. Hot day. Nice view of the Rocky Mountains in the distance.\nOn Friday, I was up on Nose Hill again. One of my geocaches, which I thought had gone missing, was found not far from where it was supposed to be. I went up to check on it and put it back in its original location. That's the third time this spring I've been up on that hill to do maintenance on a geocache. Each time involves bus rides, a long uphill walk, and takes 2 or 3 hours of my time. Oh well.\nI've been reading Wolf Hall. It took me months to get a copy from the library. Very popular book and a long waiting list. It was well worth the wait, though. It's a historical novel about Thomas Cromwell during the period when Henry VIII wanted to have his marriage annulled so he could marry Anne Boleyn.\nSummer begins tomorrow. Our spring has been cold and wet, for the most part, but it is finally starting to feel like summer.",

        "raw_content": "\"The End of an Old GM, and the Beginning of a New GM\"\nThe President speaks on moving forward\nThis morning marked a significant moment in history for a mainstay of the American economy, and an important move by President Obama to act in the best interests of all the stakeholders in the American auto industry, the American taxpayer, and the economy at large.\nHe began by discussing Chrysler, which just successfully emerged from bankruptcy:\nWhen my administration took office and began going over Chrysler's books, the future of this great American car company was uncertain. In fact, it was not clear whether it had any future at all. But after consulting with my Auto Task Force, industry experts, and financial advisors, and after asking many tough questions, I became convinced that if Chrysler were willing to undergo a restructuring, and if it were able to form a partnership with a viable global car company, then Chrysler could get a new lease on life.\nWell, that more promising scenario has now come to pass. Today, after taking a number of painful steps, and moving through a quick, efficient, and fair bankruptcy process, a new, stronger Chrysler is poised to complete its alliance with Fiat. Just 31 days after Chrysler's Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing, a court has approved the Chrysler-Fiat alliance, paving the way for a new Chrysler to emerge from bankruptcy in the next few days.\nHe went on to discuss the carefully crafted plan to get General Motors back on its feet for good:\nWhat we have, then, is a credible plan that is full of promise. But GM can't put this plan into effect on its own. Executing this plan will require a substantial amount of money that only a government can provide. Considering GM's extensive operations within their borders, the governments of Canada and Ontario have agreed to do their part with an investment in GM's future, and I want to thank them for doing so. I also want to thank the government of Germany for working diligently to reach a Memorandum of Understanding on the sale of a major stake in GM's European Division and for providing interim funding that will make it possible for that transaction to be finalized.\nBut of course GM is an American company with tens of thousands of employees in this country, and responsibility for its future ultimately rests with us. That's why our government will be making a significant additional investment of about $30 billion in GM -- an investment that will entitle American taxpayers to ownership of about 60 percent of the new GM.\nNow, let me talk about this. I recognize that this may give some Americans pause. So let me explain as clearly as possible why we are making this investment. We inherited a financial crisis unlike any that we've seen in our time. This crisis crippled private capital markets and forced us to take steps in our financial system -- and with our auto companies -- that we would not have otherwise even considered. These steps have put our government in the unwelcome position of owning large stakes in private companies for the simple and compelling reason that their survival and the success of our overall economy depend on it.\nUnderstand we're making these investments not because I want to spend the American people's tax dollars, but because I want to protect them. Instead of taking so much stock in GM, we could have simply offered the company more loans. But for years, GM has been buried under an unsustainable mountain of debt. And piling an irresponsibly large debt on top of the new GM would mean simply repeating the mistakes of the past. So we are acting as reluctant shareholders -- because that is the only way to help GM succeed.\nWhat we are not doing -- what I have no interest in doing -- is running GM. GM will be run by a private board of directors and management team with a track record in American manufacturing that reflects a commitment to innovation and quality. They -- and not the government -- will call the shots and make the decisions about how to turn this company around. The federal government will refrain from exercising its rights as a shareholder in all but the most fundamental corporate decisions. When a difficult decision has to be made on matters like where to open a new plant or what type of new car to make, the new GM, not the United States government, will make that decision.\nIn short, our goal is to get GM back on its feet, take a hands-off approach, and get out quickly.\nAs we say, it is a tremendously complex situation, read the President\u2019s full remarks or the White House fact sheet to fully understand how the President is dealing with it. The President did not hide the fact that the process at hand will be painful for many, but as he closed he hit a hopeful note:\nI'm confident that the steps I'm announcing today will mark the end of an old GM, and the beginning of a new GM; a new GM that can produce the high-quality, safe, and fuel-efficient cars of tomorrow; that can lead America towards an energy independent future; and that is once more a symbol of America's success.",

He was relegated to the role of a defensive replacement and appeared in only 103 games and 162 plate appearances.\nGeronimo was dropped from the Reds 40 man roster following the 1980 season after the signing of free agent of Larry Bittner.\nThe Reds eventually shipped him to the Kansas City Royals for minor league outfielder German Barranca.\nDuring three seasons with the Royals, Geronimo came off the bench as the team\u2019s fifth outfielder and didn\u2019t appear in more than 59 games per season, according the 1983 Topps Blog.\nHis stint in Kansas City did allow Geronimo to escape the Reds\u2019 no facial policy and he responded with one thick mustache.\nGeronimo was released by the Royals after the 1983 season, which ended up being 15th and final Major League campaign.\nInterestingly, Geronimo\u2019s 1984 Topps card featured above was released after he retired.\nAfter retiring, he worked for the Japanese Hiroshima Carp ball club as a coach at its baseball academy in his native Dominican Republic.\nGeronimo was inducted into the Cincinnati Reds Hall of Fame in 2008.\nfrom \u2192 Baseball, Cincinnati Reds, Former Reds Friday, Topps\ntags: Chicago White Sox, Cincinnati Reds, Paul Konerko, Topps\n1999 Topps Chrome Refractor #24 \u2013 Paul Konerko \u2013 Courtesy of COMC.com\nPaul Konerko wraps up a splendid career this weekend with the Chicago White Sox. However its hard not to image what would have happened if Konerko\u2019s brief stint with the Cincinnati Reds would have lasted much longer.\nKonerko came and left Cincinnati in 1998 as a part of then-general manager Jim Bowden\u2019s more infamous trades. The Reds acquired the infielder along with relief pitcher Denny Reyes from the Los Angeles Dodgers in exchange for relief pitcher Jeff Shaw.\nThat trade ruffled many feathers in the Queen City because Shaw, who was the Reds\u2019 only all-star was traded just days before the mid-summer classic. Shaw actually made his Dodger debut in the all star game. Second baseman Bret Boone was a late addition to the roster to give Cincinnati a representative in the game.\nFollowing the trade, Konerko was sent to the Reds\u2019 AAA affiliate Indianapolis Indians where he appeared in 39 games before being called up in September. Once with the Reds\u2019 he appeared in 26 games and hit .219 with 3 homers in 81 at-bats.\nHowever at the time, the Reds had a crowded infield with Sean Casey at first and Willie Green, Pokey Reese and a young Aaron Boone at third.\nJust a little more than four months after the trade, Konerko was on the move again. This time, he was dealt to the Chicago White Sox in exchange for outfielder Mike Cameron.\nThe trade gave the White Sox a pillar of their franchise for the next 16 seasons and helped propel them to the 2005 World Series championship. While playing with the South Siders, he appeared in more than 2,200 games, hit .281 and more than 432 home runs.\nCameron also had a brief stint in Cincinnati. During the 1999 season, Cameron hit .256 with 21 homers and 66 RBIs in his season with the Reds before he was dealt to Seattle along with Jake Meyer, Antonio Perez and Brett Tomko in exchange for Ken Griffey Jr.\nSwapping Griffey for Cameron helps make the Konerko not a total bust for the Reds. However it is still tough to shallow.\nArchie Griffin in the USFL\ntags: Archie Griffin, Cincinnati Bengals, Doug Fluite, Heisman Trophy, Herschel Walker, Jacksonville Bulls, Lindy Infante, New Jersey Generals, Ohio State Buckeyes, Pittsburgh Maulers, USFL\nUSFL Virtual Football cards\ncreated by Bill Jones and Willie O\u2019Burke.\nArchie Griffin will always be remembered for his years with Ohio State and some might even remember his NFL days with the Cincinnati Bengals, however his comeback attempt is often forgotten.\nGriffin, the only two-time Heisman Trophy winner, signed with the Jacksonville Bulls of the United States Football League (USFL) for the 1985 season, after he was released by the Bengals following the 1983 season.\nThe Bulls signed Griffin to be the featured back in coach Lindy Infante\u2019s offense, however he was quickly displaced on the depth chart when the Bulls signed another Heisman Trophy winning running back Mike Rozier.\nRozier had opted for the big money the USFL was offering over the NFL and signed a three-year $3 million contract with the Pittsburgh Maulers in 1984 out of college.\nAt the time, the USFL featured four Heisman Trophy winners. The other two winners Herschel Walker and Doug Flutie both played for the New Jersey Generals.\nWith the younger Rozier on the roster, Griffin, who was limited to 11 yards rushing on 10 carries and four receptions for 25 yards after just seven games, decided to retired from football.\nPerhaps, Griffin would have faired better with the Tampa Bay Bandits for no other reason than the team\u2019s uniforms were a direct copy of Ohio State\u2019s jerseys minus the helment logo.\nfrom \u2192 Cincinnati Bearcats, Football, Ohio native, Ohio State Buckeyes\nOhio Glory brought pro football to The Shoe\ntags: Amir Rasul, Any Given Sunday, Babe Laufenberg, Cincinnati Bengals, Cleveland Browns, Dallas Cowboys, Frankfurt Galaxy, George Koonce, Greg Frey, Kansas City Chiefs, Larry Little, New Orleans Saints, NFL Europre, Ohio Glory, Ohio Stadium, Pat O'Hara, Raleigh\u2013Durham Skyhawks, San Diego Chargers, The Longest Yard, The Waterboy, Tom Rouen, Troy Aikman, Washington Redskins, We Are Marshall, Woody Hayes Bowl, World League of American Football\nWorld League of American Football Virtual Football Cards featuring Ohio GLory players Babe Laufenberg (top), Amir Rasul (middle) and Greg Frey (bottom).\nCards created by Bill Jones and Willie O\u2019Burke.\nThe Ohio Glory jerseys featured a jersey patch for Amerifloria \u201992, an international l horticultural exhibition held in Columbus.\nView the entire WLAF virtual set.\nOutside of a series of NFL exhibition games between and the Cincinnati Bengals and Cleveland Browns, which were dubbed the Woody Hayes Bowl, professional football did not have a home in Ohio Stadium until 1992.\nThe Ohio Glory, playing in the second year of the World League of American Football (WLAF), became the first professional football team to call The Shoe home.\nThe Glory came into existence when the Raleigh\u2013Durham Skyhawks folded after going winless during the 10 game 1991 season. Unfortunately, Ohio only managed to slightly improve on that record with just one win.\nThe World League, played a spring schedule and was supported by the NFL. The league featured innovations such as helmet radios for quarterback to receive play calls from the sideline, video cameras mounted inside helmets, and the two point conversion.\nThe league suspended operations following the 1992 season due to financial problems and the inability to obtain further funding from NFL owners. Three years later, the league resurfaced exclusively in Europe and would eventually become known as NFL Europe.\nWith head coach Larry Little, an offensive guard who was a member of the undefeated 1972 Miami Dolphins, at the helm the Glory\u2019s only win came at Ohio Stadium against one of its international foes. The team defeated the Frankfurt Galaxy 20-17 in week seven.\nAt the beginning of the season, Ohio\u2019s offense was led by the team\u2019s top draft pick and former NFL quarterback Babe Laufenberg, The former Indiana Hoosier played in the NFL for the Washington Redskins, the New Orleans Saints, the San Diego Chargers, the Dallas Cowboys and the Kansas City Chiefs.\nDespite all this experience, his biggest claim to fame was being Troy Aikman\u2019s backup with the Cowboys. During his seven years in the league, he passed for five touchdowns, seven interceptions, including four in a game, and 1,057 yards.\nHis backups were Pat O\u2019Hara and former Ohio State quarterback Greg Frey.\nO\u2019Hara was the team\u2019s leading passer, however he found more success as a cast member of numerous football movies including Any Given Sunday and The Waterboy, according to the World League of American Football fan site. He was also a crew member on The Longest Yard (2005) and We Are Marshall.\nTwo members of the Glory went on to earn roster spots in the NFL. Punter Tom Rouen played for five teams through the 2005 season.\nLinebacker George Koonce immediately become a starter with the Green Bay Packers, which he held for eight seasons.\nA gallery of Ohio Glory memorabilia is also available through the World League of American Football fan site.\nfrom \u2192 Football, Ohio Glory, Ohio native",

Related careers in chemistry include chemical and materials research, medical research, pharmacology, toxicology, health care, pharmacy, law, policy, and environmental areas.\nThe Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry is ranked among the top 50 chemistry departments in the country (out of 555) for its production of undergraduate degrees because faculty members take a keen interest in the success of their students. Students may become involved in research with faculty members as early as the end of their freshman year, and many opportunities exist for students to become involved in funded summer research projects.\nB.A. in Chemistry Faculty\nA major in chemistry for the B.A. degree consists of the following 28-31 hours of courses: Chem 105, 106, 115, 116; 221, 222, 225, 226; 314; 331 or 334; 463 (1 hour), and two courses from 332, 401, 423, 469, 471. Two additional hours of Chem 463 may substitute for one of these courses. Math 261, 262 and Phys 211, 212, 221, 222 or Phys 213, 214, 223, 224 are also required. The following courses may not be used for major credit: Chem 101, 103, 104, 113, 114, 121, 201, 202, 271, 293, 381, 382, 383, or 393.\nAnna Hailey Rubinstein\nEarning three majors in Chinese, Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, Anna (2011) was also a student in the Chinese Flagship Program. She was UM's 8th Goldwater Scholarship recipient. Anna worked in multiple research labs on the development of new photocatalysts for turning carbon dioxide into useable energy forms. She made a number of trips to China, including being UM's first exchange student at Zhejiang University, China's leading engineering school. She earned her M.A. in chemical engineering and a Ph.D. in chemical engineering and materials science from Princeton University. Anna currently works at the Institute for Defense Analyses, a federally funded research and development center in Alexandria, VA. Her career goals are to work in the science and technology sector in support of the national defense industry.\n\"Students should consider coming to UM to study chemistry for the personalized experience. Class sizes are small, and professors really care about teaching and supporting each student. There are plenty of opportunities for undergraduate research, which is great preparation for graduate school or industry work.\"",

And what\u2019s worse, the once shunned emotions came back stronger with reinforcements, barging in on the doorsteps of your already fragile ego. There was only one way to deal with it, and that method is best summarized by an entry in the book \u201cThe Art of War,\u201d by Chinese military strategist Sun Tzu:\nKnow thy self, know thy enemy. A thousand battles, a thousand victories.\nWhile dealing with the issue, a lot of the times you felt trapped in your own predicament. Luckily, the times were changing, and people who have fought similar battles started sharing about their own experiences. You started to realize that maybe, it\u2019s okay to accept who you are. That maybe you are not a perversion of nature. That maybe, if you tell your friends and relatives, the fallout may not be as bad as the one you\u2019ve concocted inside your head.\nThe war, this personal war that you suddenly found yourself right in the middle of, would rage on for more than a decade before it finally comes to a conclusion.\nBut it will. And it did.\nAnd now look at you exuding self confidence. The naivete, although a morsel of it still remains, is almost gone. You are not that same confused person from before. Not only did you finally understand the then-unorthodox emotion that has plagued your consciousness for the greater part of your adult life, you\u2019ve also learned to accept it as part of you. Acceptance was the key to ending the decade-long internal conflict. No longer ashamed of things you can neither change nor run away from, you are ready to face the new challenges of your new life. A world that you will see for the first time with a fresh pair of eyes.\nIn your own time, using your own discretion you decided to invite more people in. I was there when you told groups of friends about the same old but new you. At first you painstakingly tried to force the words out of your mouth. When that didn\u2019t work, you enlisted the help of a few dear friends to help push, but not drag, the words out of you. A nudge towards the direction you want to proceed. Clearly, having supportive friends like them made this whole process a lot bearable.\nCome the present, you are now in a position to influence the others around you. Be a friend, a role model or maybe an inspiration if you can. A little encouragement, a gentle nudge, a few words of wisdom may be all that another person needs to muster up the courage to change and evolve for the better as an individual. It doesn\u2019t have to be on a grand scale, just the ones that you come in contact with during your daily life.\nYour life is but an instant in the grand scheme of things, but the legacies you leave will last for generations to come. Make yours a positive one.",

        "title": "An Unsettling Development in Norcia - OnePeterFive",
        "raw_content": "Steve Skojec\tApril 26, 2017 54 Comments\nI\u2019ve never been to Norcia, but before the seemingly-endless series of earthquakes that ravaged the town and destroyed the Basilica of St. Benedict, I would imagine it as my friend Hilary White described it, or as it was captured so beautifully in the photographs and descriptions (like the one above) offered by Julian Kwasniewski. Just the other evening \u2014 and not for the first time \u2014 I was listening to my album of Marian chant from the Monks of Norcia, and as the bells of the Basilica pealed in the first track, the thought struck me again that this is a sound that might never be heard again. As I listened to the chanting, I took note of the particular echo of the particular place, as unique as a fingerprint, but forever lost in the recent past.\nSeveral days ago, our friends at Juventutem DC posted a note on their Facebook page about a recent development in Norcia that has many supporters of the Benedictines there on edge:\nDr. Robert Moynihan in his latest letter (email only right now) reports some very depressing news from the Monks of Norcia / Monaci di Norcia:\n\u201cThey told me that the archbishop of Spoleto, Renato Boccardo, age 64 \u2014 who has jurisdiction over Norcia \u2014 has decided that he will rebuild the Basilica of St. Benedict in a modern style of architecture. He will also take possession of the quarters where the monks had been living from the year 2000 until October 2016. He will use the quarters as a part-time episcopal residence.\n\u201cSo the Benedictine monks of Father Cassian will not return to the center of Norcia, to the spot where St. Benedict and his twin sister St. Scholastica were born. That period of the monastery\u2019s life is over now, it seems. The monastery will now be built on the hillside above the city, about two miles outside of the city walls.\u201d\nIn an update to their post later the same day, they revealed:\nThe Monks of Norcia have made a somewhat cryptic comment confirming Dr Moynihan\u2019s report in a new blog post today on their website, in Italian:\n\u201cFor us monks, there have been struggles: on minor things, like the type of brick to be used to the roof, but also about serious things, such as how to meet the high hopes that the community has placed in us after the earthquake. The Archbishop has shared with us his concern for the pastoral needs of Norcia, and this has allowed us to understand more clearly that our task is to live more deeply the monastic life in the new monastery on the mountain, because God seems to have other plans for the oldest monastery in the city.\u201d\nThe website of the Benedictines of Norcia also indicates that the monks move to the mountains outside of town will be a permanent relocation:\nFor 16 years, the monks acted as guardians over the historic birth home of St. Benedict and his twin sister St. Scholastica. The monks are grateful to the many who helped them restore the basilica to great beauty over the course of those blessed years.\nNow, the European Union and the Italian state have pledged to restore the basilica and monastery. The Archdiocese of Spoleto-Norcia, which owns the buildings, has decided that the spaces will have to be used by the diocese since all the other churches in town were also destroyed. Throughout the many years needed for the massive work of reconstruction, while the monks work to build the new monastery in Monte, their hearts will remain there in the ancient crypt of the basilica, the birth home to their great founder and father, St. Benedict.\nIn Italy, there are bureaucratic protections against arbitrary changes to historic places like the Monastery of St. Benedict. This means that the bishop may well be fighting both local and national governments \u2014 including the agency known as the Beni Culturali \u2014 if he wants to make architectural \u201cimprovements\u201d rather than simply restoring the monastery.\nThe Benedictines of Norcia also have oblates from around the world, so the repercussions of any such action would be far more than local. I am told by sources close to the Monastery that the Nursini themselves \u2014 the natives of Norcia \u2014 are very fond of the Benedictines, are proud of their presence there, and that the local bishop would become very unpopular if he displaced them.\nBut it\u2019s hard not to read a finality into the words of the monks themselves. It\u2019s a tragic thought that a time may well be returning when no Benedictines will serve in the birthplace of their founder.\nCategoriesCatholic Life, Church News, Featured\nTags., norcia\nFra\u2019 Festing Rediscovers His Fight",

        "raw_content": "Lift the Flap Engineering is an engaging and interactive exploration of how engineering shapes the world around us, from the houses and cities we live in, to the way we travel, and even the sound of music we listen to. With detailed illustrations throughout, and simplified scientific explanations for how different types of engineering work, this would be an ideal book for both future engineers and science students alike.\nThe book explores lots of different types of engineers and the work they do, from civil engineers, to biomedical engineers, to aerospace engineers, and explains how each different type of engineering has improved people's lives and even changed the world. It also examines the common challenges that engineers have to work to overcome, and the different strategies they employ to problem solve and engineer solutions.\nWe love how the book explains how everyday objects such as tablets, bikes and wireless controllers work, but also explores much bigger issues such as how rockets can overcome gravity to reach space, how robots can be created to explore places that humans can't and how buildings can be designed to be earthquake resistant. It's a great book for inspiring engineers of the future to consider the problems they face in everyday life, and the problems faced in the wider world, and to start thinking about the solutions that could be created to improve these.\nOur favourite page is 'Building Big', which explores the natural obstacles that exist in Japan and how civil engineers have worked to overcome these obstacles to make life easier for Japan's growing population. From taking inspiration from history, to creating an artificial island, to designing an immense floodwater diversion system, this page shows us the ideas behind the solutions, and the huge difference that civil engineers are able to make.\nLift the Flap Engineering is a fascinating and inspiring title that is sure to enthuse any reader about a future in engineering. It provides a great balance between scientific information and real world examples, to bring the information into context. It's the perfect introduction to a career that isn't just about maths and science, but also about the power of the imagination.",

We are being even MORE oppressed than we were before.\nAnd what\u2019s worse, you can\u2019t even donate to the protestors to help them.\nWhat\u2019s the story you ask?\nA bill called the ALEC bill was created and passed in one state.\nThen the same wording was copied to four other states.\nWhat Five States?\nThese are the 5 States involved \u2013 Minnesota, Louisiana, Wyoming, Iowa, and Ohio.\nFreedom of Speech is a Now a Crime\nThe bill says the government will throw anyone in jail who protests to stop a TOXIC oil pipeline from being built.\nThey are labeling anyone who is AGAINST these EVIL CORPS as eco-terrorists and there\u2019s also a civil bill which goes along with the crime bill that allows them to go after people for MONEY.\nCriminally we can get upto 25 years in jail and YOU can be charged with conspiracy and charged tens of thousands of dollars even if you just donated MONEY towards the cause.\nThis is all being spearheaded by the Koch Brothers who is just one of the EVIL families responsible for polluting our earth and the humans and all living things on it.\nWe are sure there are other families involved as well, but the Koch Brothers are leading the pack.\nWe\u2019ve heard stories about them before.

        "raw_content": "Nags Head sticks with plan to wait a year for re-nourishment\nBy Sam Walker on May 3, 2018\nNourishment takes place in summer to avoid storms. (Voice photo)\nThe Nags Head Board of Commissioners voted Wednesday to put off until 2019 the planned re-nourishment of 10 miles of beachfront, after bids came in well over the $34 million budget for doing the project this year.\nGreat Lakes Dock and Dredge, which handled the 2011 nourishment project for Nags Head and last year\u2019s sand pumping from Duck to Kill Devil Hills, was the low bidder for the new Nags Head project with their proposal of $36,644,500.\nRe-nourishment will not include northern parts of the Nags Head beach that did not get sand originally. It will encompass the same 10 miles from Bonnett Street at Milepost 11 south to the town line at Milepost 21.\nBids were received in March. The plan approved Wednesday was among several options and the one that would keep the town closest to its budget for the project.\nAt their meeting April 4, commissioners opted to wait for a final decision on when to start until a funding scenario was determined to borrow the additional $16 million. With most of the funding now in place, and dropping the total amount of sand by 300,000 cubic yards, the town and Great Lakes are now scheduled to sign a contract next month.\nNags Head will pay for most of the new sand pumping using a combination of funds from the town\u2019s beach nourishment fund and borrowing money by issuing municipal bonds.\nThe nourishment fund is a combination of a town-wide tax on all properties and Nags Head\u2019s portion of Dare County\u2019s occupancy tax on hotel rooms and vacation rentals.\nA special tax district that covers oceanside properties was reinstated this year, and will be used to pay off the bonds that will not exceed $12 million according to a resolution that was also approved Wednesday.\nThat will cover the costs for 2.3 million cubic yards of sand volume.\nAnother 1.4 million cubic yards would be funded by a Federal Emergency Management Agency grant of up to $16 million that has yet to be awarded.\nThat FEMA money would come from a pot designated for Hurricane Matthew relief efforts, and will likely be formalized when the town is closer to the start of construction around May 2019.\nThe town has provided FEMA with survey results every six months that showed minimal losses and some gains along the northern parts of the beach until Matthew.\nA survey shortly after the October 2016 storm indicated that the shoreline had lost a third of the sand \u2014 1.43 million cubic yards \u2014 from the original project.\nTown officials hope that FEMA will reimburse Nags Head for the cost of restoring the beach to the contour recorded in a June 2016 survey, when about 90 percent of the sand remained in the system.\nFEMA considers the beach and nearshore out to 19 feet in depth.\nBids from four companies were opened in late March, and ranged from $52 to $94 million to get the job done in 2018, and $36 to $86 million the following year, based on pumping a total of 4 million cubic yards.\nI stood on the beach in Kitty Hawk and thought it was incredible after the latest beach improvement. Three weeks later all the beach expansion was gone..3 weeks !!\nWhy are towns wasting tax dollars ?\nFriday, May 4 @ 8:33 am\nI am glad they restrained from blowing the extra money on the sand to get it done this year. It\u2019s all a big waste of money so paying as little as possible for it is prudent.\nSince they are in the business of moving sand why not enter into a long-term contract with the Great Lakes Dock and Dredge to lock in a price and continue to have it done. Now that the train has left the station on replenishment the town might as well get the best price.\nFriday, May 4 @ 10:23 am\nThose of us in north Nags Head would like to thank the taxpayers of Kill Devil Hills, Kitty Hawk, and Southern Shores. Our beaches are wider and less steep than they\u2019ve been in years as the sand sprayed on your beaches last summer migrates south. Of course our bounty is only temporary. Soon enough we\u2019ll be back to narrow, steep beaches and all be paying again to have the same sand dredged out of Oregon Inlet.\nIts true you really cant fix stupid ! It doesnt matter if its this year or the next without a long term fix you might as well save everybody time and trouble and just throw the money off the end of the pier !!!\nThe money would be of far better use in our school system in an \u201d English Immersment Program \u201d !!!\nobx4ever\nthe intellect of local know-it-alls-in-charge never ceases to amaze me\u2026good luck trying to restrain mother nature\nSince this seems to be a ongoing venture that has no end, the towns could buy the dredge and use it as needed. When not being used lease it to other towns.\nSunday, May 6 @ 6:34 am\nAgree with the plan\nWould love to hear the long term \u201cfixes\u201d that all of the comments contrairians would have. You live in a beach community the beach is going away and will have to be replaced forever or there will be no beach\u2026 this is not cheap and will not get cheaper\u2026. as a homeowner and taxpayer I am all for replenishment as it protects my value and home.\nAgree with the plan, in 50 years the sea level on the Outer Banks will maybe be a foot higher (it was a foot lower 100 years ago). Good luck raising enough tax money for nourishment to counteract that. For the next 20 or 30 years, every coastal community will try until they realize they are all just driving up the cost of dredging by competing with each other for that increasingly hopeless service.\nInstead, we could be spending the tax money acquiring marginal oceanfront properties and thereby increasing public access, and giving tourists a more open and natural beach to visit. But we will probably drop another $200-300M countywide on pumping sand before we wise up.\nTuesday, May 8 @ 5:51 pm",

        "raw_content": "\u2190 Kennady Speaks\nI have met four families in the last several months at PromiseLand that are victims of Bullying. In fact, I prayed with 2 of them this weekend. I found this article from Focus on the Family that might be of help.\nby Paul Coughlin\nFrom the seventh through the 12th grade, Josh dreaded going to school. Name-calling and cruel jokes from his peers undermined his self-esteem and his schoolwork. \u201cIt was impossible for me to learn,\u201d he says.\nBut Josh handled the daily bullying better than 15-year-old Greg Doucette. When the taunting from his classmates became unbearable, Greg hung himself from a basement rafter.\nEvery day, heartbreaking accounts of school-based bullying appear in our newspapers. Such reports make us upset and concerned, yet most of us wonder what, if anything, we can do to help.\nThe facts about school-based bullying are shocking. About 85 percent of arrested school shooters told the Secret Service that revenge against bullying, which in some cases lasted years, was the reason they murdered indiscriminately.\nThe American Psychological Association estimates that 90 percent of fourth- through eighth-graders are targets of bullying. Approximately 160,000 students skip school each day due to bullying. The U.S. Department of Justice reports that about 85 percent of bullying takes place in front of others, yet only 11 percent of witnesses intervene.\nJesus told us we have a moral obligation to help those in need. So did the prophet Isaiah when he wrote, \u201dLearn to do right! Seek justice, encourage the oppressed\u201d (Isaiah 1:17). Teaching our children to help targets of bullying is pivotal to their moral education.\nBystanders have the greatest opportunity to reduce bullying. One study shows that when they do intervene, they succeed more than half the time.\nMark Galli, managing editor of Christianity Today, told me how in high school he stopped someone from beating up a kid.\nMark said quietly, \u201dLay off.\u201d\n\u201dWhat are you going to do, Galli?\u201d the bully said.\n\u201dI\u2019m not going to fight you. I want you to stop it.\u201d\nThe bully stopped and left.\nMost bullying is verbal, not physical, so simple and powerful words are often sufficient: \u201cStop it.\u201d \u201cThat\u2019s wrong.\u201d \u201cThat\u2019s cruel.\u201d\nTeach your children to tell an authority figure when they see bullying, especially when it\u2019s physical. Also encourage them to act in tandem. The power of two is found throughout the Bible. Jesus tapped into this dynamic when He sent His disciples out in pairs, not alone (Matthew 21:1; Mark 14:13).\nA strategy for targets\nWhen the target of bullying is your child, how can you respond? Telling him to \u201cjust ignore it\u201d is a common mistake. He can no more ignore a bully at school than a parent can at work. Instead, he needs a wise game plan, and he needs to see you behave courageously.\nMost bullies seek students who are timid and unassertive. Teach your child assertive but short responses: \u201cThat\u2019s not true.\u201d \u201cYou\u2019re wrong.\u201d \u201cWhatever.\u201d He should avoid longer responses, which only encourage further attacks. Teach him to give the impression that the bully\u2019s approval doesn\u2019t matter. Show him how to leave an area with confidence: shoulders back and without an emotional display.\nMeet with school authorities if you have to, but make sure that you are firm, not attacking. Have your facts down and stick to them. Do not confront the bully yourself. A parent who directly fights a child\u2019s battles for him makes the child appear even weaker, causing him to become an even larger target.\nMy wife and I expect our three children to show courage, not cowardice, when a classmate is bullied. Distraught, our daughter told us one day how two girls were hurting a physically challenged classmate.\n\u201cI defended her,\u201d she said.\nThree words have never made me more proud. Later, I had an opportunity to speak to her class. The teacher asked the class what they thought about my daughter. The girl she defended raised her hand and said, \u201cI think Abby\u2019s a good person.\u201d She said \u201cgood\u201d with passion and thankfulness. That little girl saw a side of God\u2019s protective nature that I doubt she had seen before.\nOur character and our ability to love expand or shrink depending on the courage we possess, and that includes the courage to stand against bullying.\nPaul Coughlin is the author of No More Jellyfish, Chickens or Wimps.\nAnne Griffith | February 21, 2008 at 5:46 pm\nmy stepson Bradley was bullied in middle school for being whinny. He admits he was whinny. As he grew into himself (he was baptized in Jesus\u2019 name and came out of the water filled with the Holy Ghost, speaking in tongues and stammering lips at the age of 10 years) he became a young man determined to not embarrass his God. As a junior in high school, he watched as another student was teasing and bullying a smaller boy for being homosexual. Bradley stepped in and took over the situation by offering himself up to the bully for bullying. He tapped on his shoulder and said, \u201cWhy don\u2019t you pick on me and leave him alone?\u201d As the bully turned around and saw that Bradley was huge, he said, \u201cbecause you will hurt me.\u201d Bradley said, \u201cno, I won\u2019t but I didn\u2019t like it when I was picked on and I don\u2019t like seeing others being picked on.\u201d\nThe point is that all people have been the subject of ridicule at some point. We all step in it sometime. To be able to stand up to another person takes honesty and fearlessness. We must be able to pull from our own experiences and see the necessity of standing up for what is worthy of defending, a soul needing a Savior.\nKathy | February 22, 2008 at 10:17 am\nEvery parent needs to read this article. How sad bullying is. Just this morning I saw this quote posted on a bulletin board and wondered how I could pass it on to others. Now is my chance.\n\u201cA snowflake is a fragile things, but think what they can do when they stick together.\u201d\nWe need to teach our kids to stick together and \u201cstand by other children\u201d, and we \u201cadults\u201d need to do the same.\nBecky | February 22, 2008 at 11:28 am\nSadly this is happening with our smaller children as well.\nA few years ago, I picked up my daughter from school, only to notice that she was very withdrawn and emotional, offering no information to what may have caused this abnormal behavior.\nMy older son informed me that while waiting in the carpool line, and older boy ( 2 years older, and twice her size) had drug her out into the grass, punched her several times and threw her into an ant pile. Of course once he saw what was going on, he came to the rescue and confronted the boy.\nFinding this out, I was very upset. It didn\u2019t take me long to pull out the phonebook and contact her teacher at home. I wanted this to be confronted first thing in the morning. Once we arrived at the school, the teacher had already informed the principle, and the other people that needed to be involved. The school counselor confronted the boy, and he confessed with no denial of what he had done. His parents were notified and came to the school to discuss the situation. As it turns out, he had assaulted children in 2 other schools and had been temporarily expelled each time, so his parents just enrolled him into a new school each time. They had moved several times as well. And his parents were in the process of a divorce and said that there were alot of problems at home.\nIt became obvious to me that this child (7 yrs old) was obviously taking out his pain, on other children. As much as it angered me with what he had done to my daughter, it hurt even worse to know what pain this child was experiencing.\nShortly after this experience, we never saw him again.\nIt\u2019s very important not to ignore these situations and think that they will just go away. If we hadn\u2019t of confronted this, what would he have done next? Also, I have asked myself, with as many attendants on duty, how did it go unnoticed? This experience brought awareness to the school. Not to mention, talking with my daughter about being more verbal. She is very, very, shy. I never would have thought that she would have allowed this to happen, without even yelling for help. We have always discussed with our kids on what to do in these situations, and thought they would automatically respond as we taught them.So this really increased awareness in our home too.\nWe now make it a part of our daily schedule to sit down with our kids every day and discuss their daily school experience. They tell us what they notice with certain classmates, and we make it a point to pray for them and situations that are going on.\nBless your children every morning with prayer, before they go to school.\nNicole Baker | February 22, 2008 at 1:30 pm\nRobin This is Nicky from PromiselandCentral.\nI just wanted to say thanks for the story on bullying. Someone told me to check your website and read it. Please be prayerful for Rhayven. I am sure that you remember her.\nShe has been bullied by 3 different girls. We asked for a meeting with the girls parents and the girls also\nWe were told today not possible. We have to meet seperately.\nYou cannot even begin to know what this has done to Rhayven. She hardly has any self esteem. We are still finding out things that have happened to her because she is afraid of retaliation. Please pray with us\nThanks Nicky\nWay to go, Becky & family!!!! God be with you all!!!\nRob Steele | February 22, 2008 at 4:00 pm\nBeck & Lael, You are wonderful parents and your children will reflect that fact the rest of their lives. I wish all American parents took the time and effort to be this involved with the lives of their children. Our country would then take a different road into the future.\nI am so sorry to hear this about Rhayven. I had her in my SS class several years ago. May God direct you in dealing with this situation.\nTeresa Orozco | February 25, 2008 at 5:02 pm\nI was a victim of bullying my 5th grade year of school. Lucky for me, my parents had taught me to love myself and have confidence in myself. They taught my that my God was bigger than anything that could come against me. It was not always easy to remember but that year it turned things around for me. I will never forget my 5th grade year and I used it as an example when teaching my children. One day I wore an orange dress with a crocheted vest to school. The vest was made for me by one of my great aunt whom I admired for her sewing/crafting abilities. The vest was brown, black, orange and yellow. There were 3 girls who always taunted me because I only wore dresses to school and they decided that day that my nickname would be \u201cHalloween\u201d. At first, I was very hurt and angry. But, I prayed about it and decided that I would wear the dress again the next week and when they called me \u201cHalloween\u201d, I would agree with them that I kind of dressed like a halloween. So, I did and I laughed with them. They did not know what to think. They could not believe that their name-calling didn\u2019t hurt me. They started talking to me and asked why I didn\u2019t react. I told them that I loved my dress and even more I loved my vest. I told them that my Aunt had made it for me. She had asthma (like I did) and as a child there wasn\u2019t medicine she could take so she sat by her mother while her brothers and sisters played outside. Sitting by her mom, she learned to sew, crochet, tat and knit among other things. I told them that I loved the vest because I knew she had sewn love in every stitch. So, if it made them happy to make fun of me it really didn\u2019t matter. Their words were just that \u201cwords that didn\u2019t have the power to hurt me if I didn\u2019t let them\u201d. The three girls became my friends and we didn\u2019t make fun of anyone or call anyone names. Verbal bullying is however, very different from physical. I\u2019m glad I never had to deal with that for myself. I did however, have to deal with it with two of my children. I agree with Becky\u2019s approach. You have to stay involved and pray for and with your children. It is very troubling to see the level bullying has escalated to in the schools these days.",

        "raw_content": "Payday Loans Online and Cash Advances\nAmericans seem to be experiencing a few financial difficulties these days. Six out of 10 citizens do not have at least $500 in a savings account. This means that millions of Americans will not be prepared when life throws unexpected tragedies their way.\nAnything can happen. Your car could break down, and we all know that the repairs can be very expensive. Your kids may have an accident that will require a trip to the emergency room, and several high and burdensome medical bills are destined to follow. If you don\u2019t have money in the bank to cover these expenses, what will you do?\nThe good news is that we can get ourselves out of many of our unexpected short-term financial needs with money. There is only a problem when the money isn\u2019t close at hand.\nMany people have credit cards that they use just for times such as these, but your last unexpected disaster may have caused you to use up all of your available credit. If you don\u2019t have this option to take advantage of, you wouldn\u2019t be alone. Harvard University performed a study and discovered that almost 40 percent of households that earn $40,000 a year don\u2019t have any credit cards at their disposal. An astonishing 10 percent of the American public doesn\u2019t even have a credit score!\nEven though you do not have any savings and you cannot access any credit, you can still experience emergencies that require you having money to get out of them.\nThe scenario described above sounds pretty hopeless, but there is a way out of the mess that you are in right now. You can apply for a payday loan.\nA payday loan is a short-term loan. The objective is to borrow no more than the amount of money you would receive in your next paycheck, so it is like a payday advance. It is also a short-term financial loan that you will be required to repay after you have deposited your next paycheck. This is an option that many people choose to take advantage of because it helps you avoid non-sufficient funds charges.\nWhen you want to take out a payday loan, the customer service team will greet you at the door. The establishment will give you an application form where you will fill in your name, your home address, Social Security number, birthdate, phone numbers and driver license number.\nYou will also need to let them have information about your employer. You will give information such as employer name, your job title, employer's phone number, your monthly salary, your next payday and how often you receive that amount.\nIf you are approved for a loan, you will also need to give your lender your bank\u2019s information. This will include the name of your bank, the bank\u2019s routing number, your bank account number, bank account type and whether or not you have direct deposit.\nYou will write the lender a personal check for the amount of money that you need to borrow. This will be for the principal amount, fee, and the interest rate. According to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, the annual percentage rate is close to 400 percent, but if you are only borrowing $100, the fee will be $15. The due date will be within two to four weeks.\nThe Payday Loan Reputation\nPayday loans have a bad reputation because of the seemingly high percentage rate, APR. When people are unable to repay their loans after they receive their paychecks, they extend their loans' terms. This will increase the fees they need to pay, and the debt continues to grow. This is called \"rolling over\" the debt. The result in the fact that these borrowers have more to pay in interest than the original principal amount.\nMany people have addressed this issue of the payday loan, and one of them is the \"Pew Charitable Trusts.\" They have stated that approximately 12 million Americans apply for payday loans every year. The fees for these loans add up to $9 billion. These borrowers only make $30,000 per year, and they have difficulties paying their bills on time.\nThe Pew Charitable Trusts have also found that payday lenders tend to target people in precarious financial situations. In their research, they discovered the following:\nPeople who take out payday loans tend to be in the Midwest, the South, and urban communities.\nOf the many divorced Americans, 13 percent have taken advantage of payday loans.\nA total of 12 percent of Americans of African descent have obtained a payday loan.\nWomen equal 52 percent of those who have received a payday loan.\nEvery year, 12 million Americans visit a payday lender for a cash advance.\nBecause you are required to leave a check for the amount of the principal and the fee, you must make sure that you can deposit your next paycheck before the lender cashes your check. If you cannot do this, your bank will charge you a non-sufficient funds fee. The lender will also charge you extra fees, and these will be late fees for not repaying your loan on time and a fee for the returned check. You will also receive rollover fees from the lender so that your due date can be set to a later date.\nSome borrowers do not have the option of applying for a home equity loan, for example, because they do not have the required credit scores. Payday lenders are willing to accept borrowers with lower credit scores, but these loans will not affect your credit positively. In general, lenders do not report to the three major credit bureaus when you repay your loans in full, so payday loans do not help improve your credit scores.\nThose who are afraid of the debt trap of payday loans have an alternative. It is credit counseling. Credit counseling will help you address those issues that need you to resort to payday loans in the first place. With credit counseling, you will learn how to set up a budget and stick to it and then begin to save enough money that you will need for a rainy day.",

        "title": "Personalised medicines: challenges and opportunities - Pharmaphorum",
        "raw_content": "Personalised medicines: challenges and opportunities\nIn our personalised medicine themed month, Duncan McHale discusses the barriers to adoption and the benefits of personalised medicine.\nPersonalised medicines have the potential to revolutionise the experience of healthcare for many patients and clinicians, and to dramatically improve treatment outcomes. However, current systems of regulation and reimbursement for medicines across Europe, combined with a traditionally conservative and change adverse clinical environment, could cause a lag between the approval and wide-spread adoption of these new medicines. It is important that healthcare and regulatory systems respond to keep pace with the new discoveries being made in order to ensure rapid adoption of truly innovative advances for patients and to enable appropriate incentives for pharmaceutical companies to develop medicines and accompanying diagnostics to deliver on these opportunities.\nOur changing understanding about the development and mechanisms of diseases is revealing a new classification of disease and related treatment options. As the pharmaceutical industry progresses from the era of one size fits all \u2018blockbuster\u2019 therapies, and develops a greater understanding of the complexity and heterogeneity of disease, we have entered an exciting era where personalised medicines are starting to enable us to target therapies to subpopulations of individuals at risk of developing diseases before they have symptoms or sub-populations of patients most likely to respond to therapeutic interventions. This has the potential to result in better health due to more effective medicines, fewer side effects and greater cost efficiencies.\nTake for example the field of oncology, a therapeutic area where personalised medicine is already making significant headway. Solid tumour types had, until relatively recently, been considered to be a single type of disease, classified according to the organ affected (breast, lung, bowel etc.), histological type, their size and whether they had spread beyond the presenting organ. As knowledge of cancer genetics has progressed, and the practice of genetic sequencing has become more accessible to researchers, our understanding about different types of cancer, their causes and the most effective way of treating them has, in many respects been revolutionised.\nThere are numerous other disease areas where better molecular profiling and targeted, personalised medicines, offers the potential to yield promising new therapeutic opportunities. Take neurodegenerative conditions, such as Alzheimer\u2019s and Parkinson\u2019s, for example. With an aging population and ballooning costs associated with providing care and treatment to this rapidly growing patient population, being able to identify early on, perhaps even before symptoms present, who will be affected by these conditions will allow the development of targeted treatments to prevent or modulate disease progression, rather than treating the symptoms of the condition once the disease presents. This approach has the potential to benefit a number of other chronic health conditions such as diabetes or epilepsy, for which treatment has historically been focused on \u2018symptom management\u2019 rather than targeting the underlying cause of the disease.\n\u201cThis has the potential to result in better health due to more effective medicines, fewer side effects and greater cost efficiencies.\u201d\nAs pharmaceutical companies and researchers seek to deepen their knowledge about the molecular causes of a disease, to more accurately predict responses to particular therapies amongst patients, regulatory processes and reimbursement systems will need to adapt.\nIn order to accurately identify which patients could benefit from personalised medicines diagnostic tests must be developed early in the drug development process. In practice, it is often difficult to develop these tests until the phase II trials of a medicine as it is necessary to use patient response data to identify the biomarkers predicting response. The current FDA regulatory requirement for large scale, prospectively stratified studies before the approval of a diagnostic test, often creates a lag between the commercial availability of a new personalised medicine and an accessible method of diagnosing / identifying patients within clinical practice. Healthcare systems need to become more forward looking and start anticipating the issues this could cause in the development of personalised medicines as it disincentivises the innovator because of the additional costs involved and the lag time to gaining a return in investment. Regulatory, payer and clinical systems need to incentivise and encourage companies to develop, commercialise and deliver faster and more efficient diagnostics.\nReimbursement bodies and systems (such as NICE) may also need to rethink their approach to personalised medicines, and any accompanying diagnostics testing. These tests tend currently to be reimbursed at a rate related to their consumables, which does not take into account the R&D costs likely to be required in developing these innovative and technical measurements and more importantly the value they bring to the healthcare systems in terms of health and gained and overall healthcare costs reduced.\n\u201c\u2026for personalised medicines to fulfil their true potential, the way in which diseases are currently classified needs to expand and deepen\u2026\u201d\nFurthermore, for personalised medicines to fulfil their true potential, the way in which diseases are currently classified needs to expand and deepen, becoming more diverse and based on molecular aetiology rather than phenotypic features. This will have the effect of making patient populations for each individually identified \u2018disease\u2019 much smaller, but will create much more homogenous disease groups with the potential of massively increasing the chances of identifying novel successful treatments. A reimbursement approach which focused on value rather than medicine cost, would recognise the higher efficacy of the medicines and the reduction in unnecessary treatment costs associated with non-personalised medicines. This approach could also offer pharmaceutical companies tangible incentives to further develop innovative personalised approaches to medicine even after launch. The system will also enable the development of medicines for rare diseases which can also suffer from a lack of ability to recoup a fair return on R&D investment.\nClinical attitudes also need to change if personalised medicines are to reach the patients who need them. Clinical conservatism and a lack of experience of using more complex tests can limit the implementation of diagnostics into practise. To address this support, information and training must be added to medical education so that doctors take on board a new and more detailed approach to classifying disease and mapping personalised treatment.\nDelivering personalised medicines will bring a new age of prevention of ill health and medical intervention for serious diseases, but realising the potential requires a re-thinking of many of the frameworks that underpin our healthcare systems. Government and regulators must create the right incentives to drive forward and accelerate the innovation already happening in the pharmaceutical and diagnostics industries.\nDuncan McHale is the Vice President of Global Exploratory Development at UCB.\nDuncan has a long history in personalised medicines. He helped to set up the pharmacogenomics programme at Pfizer, where they orchestrated biomarker technologies to predict drug responses. He then headed up the clinical personalised medicines department at AstraZeneca for four years before moving to UCB. He is also the ABPI stratified medicines lead and was previously the EFPIA pharmacogenomics lead.\nAbout UCB:\nUCB, Brussels, Belgium (www.ucb.com) is a global biopharmaceutical company focused on the discovery and development of innovative medicines and solutions to transform the lives of people living with severe diseases of the immune system or of the central nervous system. With more than 8,000 people in about 40 countries, the company generated revenue of EUR 3.2 billion in 2011. UCB is listed on Euronext Brussels (symbol: UCB).\nHow can we speed up approval and adoption of new medicines?",

        "raw_content": "Should State Licensure for Pharmacists Be Modified for Telemedicine?\nRecent advances in the delivery of health care through technology may be getting thwarted by state licensure of health care professionals, according to a Wall Street Journal article.\nThe solution proposed by promotors of the telemedicine industry, which is purported to grow to revenues of $1.9 billion by 2018, is to do away with the requirement for nurses to be licensed in each state where they work. Instead, hospitals and some nursing groups are promoting multistate agreements that would allow any nurse licensed in one state to work in all states that have signed onto the compact. This seems to make some sense, since nursing, like pharmacy, uses a single examination to qualify for licensure in most states.\nNow that pharmacy has made headway in telehealth, a similar problem exists for pharmacists.\nIf pharmacists want to deliver care across state lines through the use of technology, most states require them to be licensed in the state where that care is delivered. From a company\u2019s point of view, this can become onerous and provides little benefit in assuring the quality of care delivered.\nIf the effort to expand the number of states signed onto nursing compacts is successful, then I believe incorporating other health care professionals in these compacts will be pursued. Pharmacy organizations should look at this health policy issue before it becomes a legislative one and form an appropriate position on it.\nI like the idea of maintaining state licensure but allowing states to sign onto regional compacts so that care can be delivered across state lines. Maintaining state licensure will still give the states control, which should satisfy those who support state rights, as well as those who want a national license.\nFred Eckel, RPh, MS\nFred Eckel, RPh, MS, is Editor Emeritus of Plantsvszombies.info and a professor emeritus at the Eshelman School of Pharmacy at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.

He was engaged in trench warfare.\nNelson Huff 1887-1993. Wow! He lived to be 106. He ordered his first camera from Montogomery Ward in 1902. It cost thirty-five cents. He was fifteen years old and had no clue how to make and develop photographs. The camera was a simple cardboard box using photographic plates. Nelson had no dark room and didn\u2019t get even one picture with the device.\nIn 1904 he ordered a Box Brownie direct from Eastman Kodak Company at a cost of one buck. Eastman had developed the idea, \u201cYou push the button, we do the rest.\u201d\nCurtis, Elmer & Lewis Huff-World War I-January 8, 1915~~They got together by chance in New Orleans during the Centennial Celebration of the Battle of New Orleans. Note Elmer\u2019s sharpshooter\u2019s medal.\nThose of us who have been bitten by the family history bug know how fun it can be. But this isn\u2019t why we have the largest genealogical library in the world and why 15 million Mormons are encouraged to research their family roots. Rather, we are driven by our doctrine that teaches that marriage and families can continue beyond this life. But this can only happen when families are sealed together in one of the Lord\u2019s holy temples around the world and united for all eternity.\nThat\u2019s fine for all of us today who have the chance to be sealed in a temple, but what about our ancestors who died without the opportunity to receive ordinances like baptism, or the blessings of being an eternal family? Does it make sense that God would simply say, \u201cToo bad, tough luck?\u201d Of course, it doesn\u2019t. When Christ organized His Church anciently, it included vicarious work for the dead and the practice of performing ordinances for deceased relatives \u201cElse what shall they do which are baptized for the dead, if the dead rise not at all? Why are they then baptized for the dead?\u201d (1 Corinthians 15:29). Christ\u2019s restoration of his original Church to the earth through the Prophet Joseph Smith included the ancient practice of performing these ordinances for our deceased relatives in holy temples. The gospel of Jesus Christ includes the same blessings today in holy temples.\nWhy Mormons Do Family History\nGenealogical or family history research is the essential forerunner of temple work for our deceased ancestors. We do it to obtain names and other genealogical information so these temple ordinances can be performed for our kindred dead. Our ancestors then are taught the gospel in the spirit world and have the choice to accept or reject the work performed for them. Mother Teresa once said that \u201cloneliness and the feeling of being unwanted is the most terrible poverty.\u201d The thought that this poverty of loneliness\u2014this being unwanted and separated from loved ones\u2014could extend beyond this life is truly sad and something temple work can prevent.\nThe Promise of Elijah\nMillions across the world of all faiths are actively engaged in genealogical research\u2014trying to find cherished ancestors and binding their family ties past and present.\nWhy are they doing it? Most would probably say because it\u2019s an amusing hobby and they feel motivated by a strong curiosity about their ancestors. It is because they\u2019ve been touched by the spirit of this work. Knowing Your Families Genealogy According to the Old Testament, Elijah was to come back and prepare the way of the Lord. The Spirit of the Lord is the spirit of love that may eventually overcome all human family estrangements as it builds bridges between the generations. It binds beloved grandparents, now deceased, with the grandchildren who never knew them by preserving and sharing their histories and keepsakes. A life not documented is a life that within a generation or two will largely be lost to memory. And yet, knowledge of our ancestors shapes us and instills us with values that give direction and meaning to our lives.\nI refer back to a conversation I had with my Uncle Amos: \u201cGrace, what happens to people who have died without hearing the name of Jesus Christ?\u201d I replied, \u201cThey will go to hell. It is our responsibility to take the gospel to them and if we fail their blood will be on our hands.\u201d Uncle Amos said, \u201cI do not believe such a doctrine, the God I know would never do such a thing.\u201d Matthew 16:19\nThe Sealing Power\nFamily History I Am Doing It Song\n\u2190 Enlarge the Place of Thy Tent\nMeet the Mormons \u2192",

        "raw_content": "The November meeting featured a timely update from Rx&D, graciously and succinctly provided by Walter Robinson (then RX&D\u2019s VP of Corporate Affairs), who filled in for RX&D president Russell Williams.\nWhat\u2019s new? First, the new data protection regulations, which became effective in October. These regulations protect clinical test data for 8 years, and include six months additional protection for medications used in paediatric clinical trials. While there have been some negative headlines concerning data protection, noted Mr Robinson, it is important to understand that data protection is not patent protection, and such regulations will not make drugs more expensive.\nThe controversial Bill 102 (the Transparent Drug System for Patients Act) was adopted by the Ontario government in the fall. Not welcomed by pharmacists, and not well understood by physicians, it is, says Mr Robinson, \u201cneither transparent, nor a system\u201d. Simply, it focuses on cost containment; the key elements include price roll-backs and promises of greater access \u2013 but no benchmarks or timelines are suggested. Manufacturers will have to enter into agreements with the newly appointed Executive Officer. It will be interesting to see what affect this legislation has on other provinces as regards their own individual plans (Quebec\u2019s Politique du m\u00e9dicament, most notably) and on generic pricing.\nSeveral recent improvements to the RX&D Code of Conduct have been sanctioned by member companies. Among these are amendments to Section 2, regarding the dissemination of information by electronic means, Section 4, related to education for healthcare professionals, which sets limits on the practices of training HCPs who will train their peers; Section 4A, concerning CHE, which makes clear the idea that members are responsible for events organized by a third party; Section 12, on market research, which spells out the differences in roles between sales and market research activities, and finally, Section 15, on enforcement, which outlines a reasonable period during which complaints can be registered.\nAnd more good news. The pharmaceutical industry is still in the business of prevention, and the dividends to Canadians are huge\u2026clean water, vaccinations, new and better medications. RX&D has 54 members at present \u2013 including more biotech companies. And last year\u2019s launch of the Hearts and Mind awareness campaign put a face to an industry that is a huge part of the country\u2019s infrastructure as a gatekeeper of public health safety and security, and as an employer of thousands.",

With an educational background in accounting and business, Donna was working part-time bookkeeping before happily returning to Project U.S.E. in July 2006 as Finance Director. She has three children and is very involved in their schools and activities, volunteering over the years with school boards, PTA programs, and Treasurer roles.\nTracy Semar\nWildcat Mountain Wilderness Center Director\nTracy Semar joined the Project U.S.E. family in the spring of 2011 as a Field Instructor. A life-long tree-hugger, Tracy grew up in New York and eventually attended Queens College where she received her BA in Psychology and Studio Arts. After graduation, she set out to fulfill her dream of thru-hiking the Appalachian Trail from Georgia to Maine. Upon her return, she was disillusioned with everyday life and missed the connection she had with the outdoors. By a stroke of good fortune, Tracy discovered work in the Outdoor Education field and she has never looked back. Through her work, she has been able to connect her love of nature with her passion for education. She is always on the look-out for her next adventure.\nJen Reich\nDirector, Boat Building & Pedal Farmers\nJen Reich, a life-long tree hugger, studied Environmental Science at Cook College, Rutgers University. Her first job was as a Recycling Educator for the Borough of Brooklyn in NYC, and also worked in the Urban Tree House of the Children\u2019s Museum of Manhattan introducing kids who had rarely left the city to environmental challenges. Jen then left Brooklyn for the Rockies of Colorado to live in a cabin with no running water or electricity. Upon returning to NJ, she needed to find a job that encompassed her love of nature and working with kids. In June of 1999 Jen had the privilege to begin working with Phil Costello and Project USE. For 6 years she worked as the Resource Coordinator then Director of Operations and occasionally and as needed the Wildcat Director. She can honestly say they were the best and most productive years of her life. In 2006 she spent a year interning on Evening Rain Farm in Hawaii, a permaculture and sustainable living experiment where she worked on several natural building projects and grew or raised most of her food. In 2008 she became a Director of the Foodshed Alliance, helping coordinate a local seasonal farmer\u2019s market, farm to table dinners and most importantly advocate for farmers in the region. In 2010 she began 5 years of work as an administrator for the YMCA. In the summer of 2017 she was proud to come full circle and rejoin the Project USE family, bringing her back to her roots and what she considers the most important work in the world.\nBob Goger has long been associated with Project U.S.E., first as a volunteer and board member; then more recently coming aboard to help us expand our adult training programs. After working as a teacher and social worker in Puerto Rico and New York City, Bob returned to his native New Jersey to assume training and management positions in the State Departments of Health and Education. Among the original group of counselors to receive certification as a Substance Awareness Coordinator, he helped develop the first wave of student assistance programs in local districts throughout the state. More recently he has served as a SAC and Student Services Coordinator for the Montclair Schools.\nBob is a graduate of Fordham University (BA & MA); a biker (\u2018unmotored\u2019); and a harried part-time beekeeper. He also spends some time each week at the Y as a certified fitness instructor and ropes course facilitator.\nCarl Schmidt was introduced to experiential education while taking classes through Washington State University in the late 1980\u2019s. By 1995 he decided to give the industry a go and signed on with a challenge course construction company in New Jersey. Three years later Carl was asked by an industry friend to be part of a growing business opportunity in Long Island, New York and accepted. The next five years were spent developing a successful challenge course company with his good friend and founder. They went on to earn a Level III accreditation with the Association of Challenge Course Technology. With their goals achieved and his commitments over on Long Island, Carl settled back into New Jersey to become the Director of Special Projects at Project U.S.E. in 2003.\nCarl attended Lebanon Valley College in Pennsylvania before starting his military career with the United States Air Force in 1985. He\u2019s been in the industry for twelve years delivering full challenge course services throughout the east coast, in the mid-west and overseas.",

Unload the dishwasher. For a homeschooling family of six, it seems to be a never-ending job and until recently, it was a routine that happened at least 3 times a day. But since my oldest is recently married and establishing a home of her own, and child number two is away at college, the count of daily cycles our dishwasher runs is down to two, and on a rare day, maybe just one! But lately I\u2019ve been extra frustrated by the number of dishes that have to be rewashed because they just aren\u2019t getting clean! After rinsing out the filter and making sure the mechanical part of the dishwasher is functioning properly, I finally realized that the problem wasn\u2019t with the machine itself\u2026 the problem was the dishes.\nSince our family tribe is smaller, the number of dirty cups and plates has shrunk as well. Instead of washing a bunch of small loads, now I choose to wait until the dishwasher is full before running it. So, the new rule in the house is for each plate-user to stack his dishes in the rack and leave them until after the next meal. Ideally, it\u2019d be best if those dishes were rinsed off under some running water before they were loaded, but in reality, that doesn\u2019t always (or even frequently) happen. Which means that after a few hours of sitting, the leftover food particles become firmly cemented to the ceramic surfaces. Smears of pasta sauce, remnants of oatmeal or tiny bits of grain become so hardened that even the power of the dishwasher jets can\u2019t blast them loose. What would have been removed with a gentle spray a few hours earlier, later it takes, not one, but two cycles of the dishwasher, and sometimes an extra tough, dried-on stain will require additional soaking before it will come off.\nTherefore, since we have these promises, dear friends, let us purify ourselves from everything that contaminates body and spirit, perfecting holiness out of reverence for God. ~ 2 Corinthians 7:1\nMy dishes can be a little like what happens to believers when we refuse to deal with sin quickly. Instead of yielding to the Holy Spirit, our delayed response allows time for the remains of carnal thinking, or remnants of sinful behavior to stick in our lives with ferocity. Once set in place, we often have to be scraped, scrubbed and scoured to be rid of the nasty residue of disobedience.\nWhile purification of the heart is solely the work of God through faith in Christ, Paul reminds us that we have to cooperate with the process. Paul charges us to \u201cpurify ourselves\u201d of all that soils our actions and attitudes and \u201cout of reverence for God,\u201d choose actions and attitudes that result in a clean life. (vs 1) While we may not cling to what are often considered to be gross sins (adultery, murder, malice, etc), as we mature in our faith, we should seek to heighten our awareness of the filthiness of pride, anger, irreverence, envy, greed and other more \u2018socially acceptable\u2019 sins as well. (Rom 1:29-30)\nThe remedy for this is found by going back to my dishes. The water from the sink is always available to clean my plates, but until I actually immerse them, the grime remains. As Christ-followers, the Spirit of God has already been poured out on us and the Word of God is readily available to cleanse us, but unless we plunge ourselves in the Scriptures and allow the Spirit to rain (reign) over us, we\u2019ll find ourselves encrusted with sin and stuck in our struggle for purity and holiness.\nSo if you have areas in your life that are in need of some scouring, it might be time to roll your sleeves up and get busy. Open the Word of God\u2026 Yield to the Spirit of God\u2026 invite the Lord to change your heart as you change your behavior so that you can be clean and fit to be used as a vessel ready for service.\nFor the grace of God has appeared that offers salvation to all people. It teaches us to say \u201cNo\u201d to ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright and godly lives in this present age, while we wait for the blessed hope\u2014the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, who gave himself for us to redeem us from all wickedness and to purify for himself a people that are his very own, eager to do what is good. Titus 2:11-14",

        "raw_content": "WOLF IN WHITE VAN by John Darnielle (Review)\nOn June 1, 2018 May 31, 2018 By Daniel PeraltaIn Uncategorized3 Comments\nThis is another one of those reads that\u2019s been on my TBR for awhile, so while in NYC, I managed to pick it up at The Strand and read it almost entirely between train rides!\nIsolated by a disfiguring injury since the age of seventeen, Sean Phillips crafts imaginary worlds for strangers to explore. As the creator of \u201cTrace Italian\u201d-a text-based role-playing game that\u2019s played through the mail-Sean guides subscribers through his intricately imagined terrain, turn by turn, as they search out sanctuary in a ravaged, savage future America. But when Lance and Carrie, two teenaged seekers of the Trace, take their play outside the game, disaster strikes, and Sean is called on to account for it. In the process, he is pulled back through time, toward the beginning and the climax: the moment of his own self-inflicted departure from the world in which most people live.\nSo, the concept behind this is very interesting, as almost none of the actual story takes place in the present, even though it\u2019s being narrated from the present. Sean lives his life with his disfigurement, and a lot of the story is him going back and telling the story of what actually happened to him. In recovery of what happened, Sean creates a mail-in game that people can subscribe to and mail ins responses called Trace Italian (almost like an RPG). When a couple of kids take the game too seriously, he ends up in a lawsuit.\nTo start with the negatives, I would have to say my major complaint about this is that I wish there had been more details about the lawsuit and the details behind what actually happened to the kids. While you get little snippets and some small details about what actually went down, I do wish it had been a little more detailed, and would not have been mad if that resulted in an extra 100 pages.\nNow, to the positives.\nThe writing is absolutely brilliant. I am absolutely in love with Sean as a character and are sad this is the only narrative we may ever see him in. His story about his disfigurement is heartbreaking, and all of the details of family life are heartbreaking as well as the encounters he gets in to. Most of the story, as stated before, is told with flashbacks, and it\u2019s very cool to see how all of the puzzle pieces fall into place, and how the game of Trace Italian came to be.\nThere really isn\u2019t a lot to say about this without giving too much away, but if you\u2019re looking for a quick read with a super interesting character and story that really makes you look at things from a different perspective, then I would recommend this.\nSean is an incredible character, and this story had me flipping through pages, not ever really wanting to put it down. Wolf in White Van is definitely going to find long time residence on my shelf.\nOverall, I really, really enjoyed this one. I would highly recommend you buy it here, or check it out from your local library.",

Before 9/11, terrorists such as Ramzi Yousef, architect of the 1993 World Trade Center bombing, were routinely tried in U.S. criminal courts. Two months after the 9/11 attacks, President Bush issued an order setting up the commissions, saying it was \u201cnot practicable to apply . . . the principles of law and the rules of evidence generally recognized in the trial of criminal cases in the United States district courts.\u201d In 2002 the Department of Justice advised that Geneva Convention protections for prisoners of war did not extend to members of Al Qaeda. This set off a series of battles among the executive branch, Congress, and the courts. After defeats in the Supreme Court, Bush enlisted the help of Congress, which passed the Military Commissions Act in 2006, reestablishing many of the provisions in the president\u2019s original order. But the Supreme Court declared parts of it unconstitutional. In 2007 David Hicks, an Australian who converted to Islam and served with the Taliban in Afghanistan, pleaded guilty and was returned to Australia. In 2008 military commissions finally convicted Salim Ahmed Hamdan, Osama bin Laden\u2019s driver, and Ali Hamza al-Bahlul, bin Laden\u2019s personal secretary. The Department of Defense\u2019s website lists 13 additional cases, one including all six \u201cSept. 11 Co-Conspirators.\u201d Among the defendants is 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, who, seven years after the attacks, still has not been fully tried.\nPresident-Elect Obama reportedly is considering bringing accused terrorists to the United States for criminal trials in federal courts. Joe Dellavedova, a Department of Defense spokesman, said that for now the military commissions are going forward with trials scheduled for December and January. \u201cThe commissions have been tested, but that\u2019s what the legal system is about,\u201d Dellavedova said. On December 8, Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and other alleged 9/11 plotters offered to confess to the military commission, although reports from the court at Guantanamo indicated that some of the men might condition their pleas on a guarantee of the death penalty, a sentence that they would consider martyrdom.\nBarack Obama\u2019s 21 biggest fans\nAs FCC Chair Martin resigns, he leaves controversial legacy\nConsumer-friendly policies, but a prickly personal style",

To this end, there are a number of screening tests that have become accepted by the public as routine to catch some of the more common cancers that we confront. Pap smears for cervical cancer, mammograms for breast cancer, PSA tests for prostate cancer, and colonoscopies for colon cancer are all part of our common experience.\nThe incidence of oral cancer and throat cancer in the United States is 34,000 new cases per year, with an average of 8,000 deaths per year. This is close to three times the rate of cervical cancer in this country. Oral cancer has one of the highest death rates of any cancer since it is often caught only after is has metastasized to the lymph nodes. Typically, smoking and alcohol use have greatly increased the risk of oral cancer, but it is becoming much more common to find cancer in people without these risk factors.\nNow we have a new technology call Oral-ID. This uses a process called Fluorescence Visualization Technology to allow us to see early changes in your oral tissues under a special hand-held light. We are incorporating the use of the Oral-ID Cancer Screening into our standard oral exam by our dental hygienists. They have always been doing and will continue to do a standard visual and manual screening, but the Oral-ID Cancer Screening gives us an entirely new level of detection. If we do detect any questionable areas with the Oral-ID, we will document the area and decide whether to monitor it, brush biopsy it, or refer to an oral surgeon for a more definitive evaluation and possible biopsy.",

        "raw_content": "Gender Balance Blind? What Do You See In An IKEA Catalogue?\nYou go through Ikea Catalogue and you see furniture. Ikea is a furniture manufacturing and design company. It is quite healthy that you see furniture in their catalogue. However, if you see only furniture, but no traces of gender balance, then it may not be that healthy. Be careful! You might be a \u201cgender balance blind\u201d person!\nA couple of years ago, gender diversity entered many of the global CEOs\u2019 agendas and organizations started setting goals for the proportion of women in leadership roles. Since then, this subject is still a discussion point. Although there is an increase in the number of women in leadership roles and the number of NGOs working hard on women empowerment, the results are not at a satisfactory level.\nOne of the most important issues to achieve gender balance is unconscious gender bias against women. When it comes to understand how unconscious biases happen against women, it is not an easy and one dimension problem.\nBeing able to see and identify unconscious biases is another important aspect to start to overcome these problems.\nTo overcome unconscious biases, we may consider many remedies, including training programs on unconscious gender bias, getting habit of making others aware of it, etc. All of these things will definitely help. However, one of the most crucial things is how we bring up our children in overcoming gender biases. It starts at home, grows at the school and internalized by public interactions, media and everyday life. If you educate your children without gender diversity habits, they will not develop any bias and there will not any need to overcome against biases!\nIf we take Sweden, it is one of the countries with the highest number of women in leadership roles. As per European Commission database, dated 2013, Sweden has women leaders in board seats by 26,5% and it is the forth country in ranking amongst other European countries.\nFor such relatively good and higher numbers, how might bringing up children without gender diversity have an impact on such good results?\n* Visuals from Ikea Catalogue 2017\nBefore we answer this question, let\u2019s take a gender diversity blindness test on Ikea Catalogue: When you take a look at the visuals from Ikea Magazine above, if you are able to see a little boy cracking eggs for cooking, a young boy cutting food with knife, man and woman cooking together, another man cooking food in a wok, two boys preparing the table, a little boy helping to cook fish and then,\nYou identify chores with gender balance in the catalogue and find it quite strange, as boys and men are doing women\u2019s work\nYou are consciously able to identify gender balance cases in the catalogue\nYou do not recognize gender balance case in the catalogue, because you are even not aware of any gender balance issue at home.\nYou do not recognize gender balance case in the catalogue, because it is not a subject of discussion in your society, as you live in a perfectly gender balanced society.\nIf you said (1), you are in the very beginning of gender balance discussions and it may be helpful to investigate and contemplate on how chores at home may affect gender balance at work and in the society. Bad news! You might be seriously gender balance blind. If you said (2), this subject is in your radar and you internalized gender balance issue. Take off your eyeglasses, as you can clearly see it! If you said (3), bad news again; you also are gender balance blind. If you said (4), you live in a country where 50% of women in all of the leadership roles, on boards, parliament, and so on. Tell us where you live; we would like to move to this dream country!\nIf you are not only be able to identify these positive printings on the Ikea catalogue, but also be consciously able to identify negative sayings and visuals on gender diversity in many other advertisements, then you are not gender balance blind, either. We are still exposed to TV ads where cleaning products target only women: Husband makes things dirty and his wife cleans them. Media may reflect the culture of the society. However, with a proactive approach, it may change the society, as well. For Ikea, continuing using gender-balanced visuals, without any fear of losing customers in other countries, may create a positive impact in these cultures. To see the picture of a little boy cooking in the catalogue will create new neurotic ways in readers\u2019 brains and people will get used to it, when they see such pictures or TV ads over and over again in the media.\nPWN Istanbul Engaging Men Committee conducted two workshops on gender balance leadership in 2015 and 2016 with participation of 15 mid-senior level managers and 27 senior level executives, respectively. Interestingly enough, both of the groups emphasized the importance of chores at home and practices at schools, when they bring up \u201cleaders of the future\u201d. They questioned themselves whether they ensure that there are no gender biased role assignments to the kids, such as washing the dishes, emptying the trash, doing the laundry, shopping, cooking, setting the table.1 They also questioned, if they warn the school management, when they notice gender biased practices at schools.2\nOf course, it is not only about bringing up children. As much important as it is how governments approach and support gender balance. I am not going to talk about quotas. I am going to talk about something that might even not require any quotas by government to support women on boards in the future! I\u2019ll introduce you Sweden\u2019s official site on gender equality. Yes, you read it right, Sweden has the following web page on gender equality, https://sweden.se/society/sweden-gender-equality/ and it welcomes you, as follows:\n\u201cWelcome to the official site of Sweden.\nSweden believes that women and men should have equal power to shape society and their own lives. Often considered a gender equality role model, Sweden has come a long way. Still, there\u2019s room for improvement.\u201d\nIt is nice to see how early they started gender balance studies and how eager for further development realistically by accepting room for improvement. Based on the information in the official web page:\n\u201cRape and abduction prohibited in Sweden in 1250s. A school reform allowed girls to be educated in 1842. Widows, divorcees and unmarried women entitled to work in certain areas in1846.\nIn1919, all women gain the right to vote. Birth control and abortion legalized in 1938. In 1947 a new law on universal child allowances was effective as well as the first woman was in government.\nThree months' paid maternity leave was given for working women in1955.\nJoint taxation of spouses abolished in 1971.\nParental leave replaced maternity leave in 1974. (Weightlifter 'Hoa-Hoa', above, was later used to promote daddy leave, even though he didn't take any himself)\nAbortion permitted until 18th week of pregnancy in 1975.Gender discrimination in the workplace made illegal in 1980. New law on gender equality which was replaced by the Discrimination Act in 2009 was effective in1991.\nIn 2002, parental leave defined as 480 days: two months reserved for each parent. Sweden gets an Equality Ombudsman in 2009.\nParental leave updated: three months of parental leave reserved for each parent in 2016.\u201d\nWe can introduce programs and try to create awareness on gender balance at our corporate environment. With no doubt, these efforts will help to improve. However, to internalize gender balance and create a bigger impact, two things are vitally important:\nThe first thing is how we grow up our children and what they are exposed in printed and visual media.\nThe second thing is how our governments sensitively and consciously put gender balance in their own agendas.\nIn our journey of achieving gender balance, we need more Ikea-like advertisements that support gender-balanced chores at home and other living areas from early childhood and structured, sustainable programs on gender balance by governments.\nAuthor: Funda Sezgin, VP Engaging Men, PWN Istanbul",

        "raw_content": "Cal Cooper (It's important to note that he's totally not posing for this photo - he has absolutely no idea the photographer is even there, his neck always does that)\nCallum E. Cooper (best known as Cal Cooper) is a British parapsychologist, psychologist and pseudoscientist, best known for his research into telephone calls and their supposed relationship with the paranormal.[1][2]\nCooper takes issue with his views on the paranormal being categorized as pseudoscience, despite being precisely that, and describes himself as a \"science promoter\" similar to how creationists label themselves \"creation scientists\".[3]\n2 Telephone Calls from the Dead\n3 Alex Tanous\n4 J. B. Rhine\n5 Criticism of skepticism and Wikipedia\nCooper has a BSc in psychology from the University of Northampton and a MRes from Sheffield Hallam University.[4] He works as a lecturer in psychology at University of Northampton within its Centre for the Study of Anomalous Psychological Processes.[5][6]\nHe has lectured on woo topics such as \"spiritual and psychic connections with water\".[6]\nHe is a member of the Society for Psychical Research.[7]\nTelephone Calls from the Dead[edit]\nCooper is the author of Telephone Calls from the Dead (2012) and takes influence from the work of parapsychologist D. Scott Rogo. [8] Cooper believes that psychokinesis (PK) is real. He speculates that some people may unconsciously phone themselves by PK.[9] He has also explored \"infrasound and the parapsychological effects it can have on the human mind and body.\"[10]\nAlex Tanous[edit]\nCooper has embraced Alex Tanous as a genuine psychic.[11] He wrote the introduction to Tanous's book Conversations with Ghosts (2013).\nTanous is best known for having performed an out-of-body experience (OBE) experiment with parapsychologist Karlis Osis in 1980. According to Cooper:\n\"Tanous produce[d] on average, a ninety per cent hit rate through perceiving a target image four rooms away\".[12]\nHowever, Susan Blackmore noted that the overall hit-rate had never been reported by Osis and that Tanous \"made no more hits than would be expected by chance. This implies that any hits made were likely to have been due to chance and not an OBE.\"[13]\nJ. B. Rhine[edit]\nCooper has defended and promoted the research of parapsychologist J. B. Rhine. He says that Rhine's test subjects scored above chance level in ESP experiments and the results cannot be explained by fraud or sensory leakage.[3] He does not mention that the experiments contained serious methodological flaws. For example, Professors Charles M. Wynn and Arthur W. Wiggins have written:\n\"Tests often took place with minimal or no screening between the subject and the person administering the test. Subjects could see the backs of cards that were later discovered to be so cheaply printed that a faint outline of the symbol could be seen. Furthermore, in face-to-face tests, subjects could see card faces reflected in the tester\u2019s eyeglasses or cornea. They were even able to (consciously or unconsciously) pick up clues from the tester\u2019s facial expression and voice inflection. In addition, an observant subject could identify the cards by certain irregularities like warped edges, spots on the backs, or design imperfections.\"[14]\nCriticism of skepticism and Wikipedia[edit]\nCooper has criticized skeptics for not being open-minded about paranormal research. He claims skeptics are actually \"cynics\" who do not investigate the claims they criticize.\nCooper has complained that Wikipedia is biased against paranormal topics and negative towards the field of parapsychology. He argues that a group of skeptical editors (who he describes as \"cynics\") control Wikipedia biographies of parapsychologists and that they are \"idiots paid to sit there\".[3] He is a proponent of the Guerrilla Skepticism on Wikipedia conspiracy theory.[3] (for which no evidence exists).\nCooper has criticized atheism and described it as a \"belief system\" and \"religion in itself\".[15] He has argued that Richard Dawkins is biased against the paranormal and \"made his mind up\" before looking at the evidence.[15]\nTelephone Calls from the Dead (2012) Tricorn Books.

        "raw_content": "Almost everybody has headaches from time to time. For the most part, they\u2019re easily treatable and they may be no more than just a nuisance. For other people, however, a headache can become life-changing whenever they get very serious. Many people suffer from migraine headaches on a regular basis and these can really put you down for the count and take control of your life. Unfortunately, there is little that can be done for those that suffer from migraine headaches medically, aside from masking the pain to a certain extent with some medication. Although this can help, many migraine sufferers are looking to chiropractic care in order to overcome what is behind the migraine headaches to start with.\nUnfortunately, there is not much that a doctor is going to be able to do to help you with your migraines. Yes, they can give you some pain medicine that may be anti-inflammatory or preventative in nature but, it is simply masking over the pain and not really taking care of what is causing it in the first place. Most people are surprised with how chiropractic helps migraine sufferers, particularly those that have been suffering for quite some time. They\u2019re able to do this for a number of different reasons.\nFirst of all, chiropractic has to do with treating the spine of individuals in order to make sure that everything is in alignment. Since a headache actually may radiate from another part of the body, it is not unusual to think that the spinal cord would have a lot to do with this. If it were to be pinched or twisted in some way or another, it may be blocking signals and causing us to have the migraines that we suffer from. We will be able to adjust the spine so that it is back in alignment and many people experience a certain amount of relief from the very first treatment.\nWe will also be able to help you to identify anything that may be causing the migraine headaches from outside of the body. Our doctors are not only interested in adjusting your spine, they have an overall interest in natural health. They will help you to identify any triggers that may bring on the migraine headaches such as caffeine, alcohol or chocolate. You might be surprised with which of these may actually be causing your migraines in the first place. Along with your adjustment, make sure that you consult with us for any other natural treatments that you may do to help you with your migraines.\nOnce you\u2019re able to successfully overcome your migraines, it may be necessary to go in from time to time in order to remain adjusted. Depending on our own personal circumstances, this can be done on a monthly basis or perhaps even longer. One thing is certain for those that suffer from migraine headaches, the effort will be well worth it once the headaches are gone.\nIf you would like to make an appointment to see if we can help with your migraines please give us a call at 775-329-4402.",

The conference was focussed upon the examination of contemporary notions of work and its representation through photography. Taking this axis, the paper that considered the photographic depiction of contemporary manual labour in the northwest of England. Foregrounding the depictions of class, the paper considered photographic representations of labour, casual labour and acknowledged the hidden economies of an unmapped 'underclass', active in the region and the subject of previous research (item 3). Drawing upon the notion that an audience for photography is regularly a remote constituency from the subjects depicted, the essay progressed theories of difference and power, considering working methodologies that allowed the development of a more engaged and committed practice. It explored a sense of biography and the familial, as well as depictions of the vernacular and drew upon works of vernacular literature and folk narrative pertinent to labour and its depiction. The work sought to generate a reappraisal of issues of representation, an area dormant in current research and successfully expanded debate around the position of the worker-photographer and the participant-observer.

This research investigates why such a gender gap still exists and focuses on examining this issue amongst 18-24 year olds living in Ceredigion, a rural area situated in Mid Wales. The key barriers identified were the lack of transport, distance to facilities, lack of appropriate facilities, urban/rural differences and how women often feel discouraged from viewing themselves as strong, competent individuals and thus will be inclined to withdraw from partaking in sport and physical activity. A qualitative approach was used for this study, by undertaking semi structured interviews with six female participants. The female interviewees lived in three different rural villages within a 16 mile radius of the closest town of Aberystwyth, in Ceredigion, Mid Wales. The primary objective of the interviews was to explore the barriers that women are faced with and to see whether their rural geographical location might further hinder their participation. The key findings highlighted the lack of access, scarcity of facilities, little or no public transport and travelling a further distance to use facilities were all significant challenges. Other themes that emerged from the results included the participants feeling at a disadvantage compared to their urban counterparts, and there were no suitable clubs available for women in the area. These findings suggest that, in addition to the known barriers affecting women\u2019s participation, living in a rural part of Wales brings further challenges which are often overlooked by providers who tend to focus on an \u2018urban\u2019 model of provision\nDEGREE OF BACHELOR OF SCIENCE (HONOURS) SPORT COACHING\nHealth related fitness and physical activity levels of urban and rural boys \ufeff\nPrice, Carwyn (University of Wales Institute Cardiff, 2008)\nThe study aimed to investigate the health related fitness level and physical activity behaviour of urban and rural Welsh schoolboys.

        "raw_content": "Our first impression of Eastern Ukraine was that it is very rural, with acres and acres of fields of sunflowers and wheat as far as the eye can see. There were birds singing, flowers growing and in the distance, the sound of gunfire and bombs!!! It was very strange to be in such a peaceful countryside and yet in a war zone.\nWe were working with an organization called: \u2018Peace for your home\u2019. Dimitri who leads this, was a wonderful man of faith and an excellent host. We often travelled to within 4 to 5 km from the war zone to minister in different villages. Many people had left, so those who remained were mostly elderly people, often traumatized and left alone.\nMost days we set up medical clinics which were in a variety of settings, including a bus stop!! The tarps we brought came in very handy!! The people we saw had many long -term health problems and the joy of seeing us often turned to tears when they shared their stories. Many had lost their homes and communication with their families. This was often because their families were still living in Donetsk, and had no papers allowing them to leave. We also did medical home visits to those who were unable to come to the clinic, where we saw many frail, sick elderly people. In total, we treated 155 people over the 9 days of ministry.\nWe provided and gave 840 loaves of bread to people, as well as 30 food packages. This was such a privilege because Dimitri knew people who were really in need and it was all built on relationships. We talked, laughed, cried and prayed together with the people as we gave out the bread and food packages. It was good to see that the local people did not take more bread than they needed.\nIn one of the home visits we met an widow who lives close to the active fighting lines in an old house with a leaking roof. As a team, we could buy materials and three of our team were able to renew the roof in one day. She was very thankful and amazed a team from Europe had come to help her.\nWe provided a children\u2019s ministry, but because there were so few children, we only did this in one area. In another village, we had the opportunity for one of our team to provide Psychological First Aid teaching to the residents who had all suffered some sort of trauma resulting from the war. It was so good to see them engage with the teaching and laugh together.\nIt was a privilege to be part of this ongoing ministry in Eastern Ukraine and work with local churches, who have provided 90 % of the care to the forgotten village people. We learned what it was like to be in a war-zone, for example to be careful where we walked to avoid landmines and to not use seatbelts in vehicles to allow for a quick escape if there was shooting.\nGod was very gracious to us and we all had a great outreach and could tell many more stories. Thank you so much for your prayers. We really felt the value of them and the Lord has kept us safe and used us in different ways.",

Visconti, Boren & Campbell, Ltd.\nIn 2000, Husband retained Attorney to draft an antenuptial agreement in anticipation of his marriage to Wife. In 2005, Wife filed for divorce. The petition was dismissed in a settlement that required the parties to execute a postnuptial agreement. Attorney drafted the agreement. In 2010, Wife again filed for divorce. Husband and Wife settled. In 2012, Husband filed suit against Attorney and his Law Firm (collectively, Defendants), alleging that Attorney negligently drafted the antenuptial and postnuptial agreements and negligently advised him. At issue in this appeal was a discovery order compelling production of any antenuptial or postnuptial agreements drafted or prepared by Attorney while he was employed at Law Firm. Defendants argued before the Supreme Court that the documents exceeded the scope of permissible discovery and were protected by the attorney-client privilege. The Supreme Court affirmed the discovery order, holding (1) the documents at issue were discoverable; and (2) Defendants did not have standing to assert the attorney-client privilege on behalf of their clients in this case, and the superior court protected the confidential interests contained in the documents by requiring redaction. View \"DeCurtis v. Visconti, Boren & Campbell, Ltd.\" on Justia Law\nPosted in: Civil Procedure, Professional Malpractice & Ethics\nRose v. Brusini\nPlaintiffs Michael Rose and RC&D, Inc. filed suit against Defendants Stephen Brusini and the law firm Orson & Brusini Ltd. alleging professional negligence and breach of contract. The hearing justice granted summary judgment for Defendants, concluding that there was no evidence of proximate cause linking Defendants\u2019 alleged negligence and any damages Plaintiffs may have suffered. The Supreme Court vacated the judgment of the superior court, holding that Rose submitted sufficient competent evidence to preclude the entry of summary judgment for defendants on a question of fact relating to Defendants\u2019 liability. Remanded. View \"Rose v. Brusini\" on Justia Law\nPosted in: Contracts, Personal Injury, Professional Malpractice & Ethics\nBehroozi v. Kirshenbaum\nDefendant, an attorney, represented Plaintiff in post-final judgment divorce proceedings. Defendant later withdrew as counsel with the family court\u2019s approval. Three years later, Plaintiff filed a complaint against Defendant, alleging legal malpractice, negligence, fraud, and breach of fiduciary duty. The superior court entered summary judgment in favor of Defendant on each of Plaintiff\u2019s claims. The Supreme Court affirmed, holding (1) Plaintiff\u2019s legal malpractice and fraud claims were barred by the statute of limitations, and the trial justice did not err in concluding that the discovery rule did not toll the statute of limitations; (2) Plaintiff\u2019s malpractice claims necessarily failed because she did not retain an expert witness to testify in support of her case; and (3) Plaintiff\u2019s remaining claims on appeal were wholly without merit. View \"Behroozi v. Kirshenbaum\" on Justia Law\nPosted in: Contracts, Injury Law, Professional Malpractice & Ethics\nSharkey v. Prescott\nPlaintiff Virginia Sharkey appealed the dismissal of her legal malpractice claim against Defendant Attorney George Prescott. Plaintiff and her husband retained Attorney Prescott to prepare an estate plan. Mr. Prescott established a trust indenture that the Sharkeys executed in 1999. Subsequently, the Sharkeys signed a quitclaim deed, also prepared by Mr. Prescott, which conveyed two lots of land they owned to the trust. Plaintiff asserted that the trust was set up to care for the surviving spouse. Mr. Prescott sent Plaintiff a letter shortly thereafter, memorializing the actions he took on their behalf. Mr. Sharkey died in 2002. In 2003, Plaintiff wanted to sell one of the two lots conveyed to the trust. The local authority told Plaintiff that because both lots were conveyed to the trust, they effectively merged together, and could not be sold as she intended. In 2006, Plaintiff sought access to trust funds. The bank informed Plaintiff that she was not able to get access as she had intended. These two instances lead Plaintiff to believe that Mr. Prescott was negligent in the performance of his duties as her attorney. In 2009, Plaintiff brought suit against Mr. Prescott. Mr. Prescott moved to dismiss the case, arguing that Plaintiff\u00e2s claims against him were time-barred. The trial court dismissed Plaintiff's case as time barred. After a review of the case, the Supreme Court found that the trial court erred in granting summary judgment with regard to the letter Mr. Prescott sent memorializing the trust set-up. The Court reasoned that because Plaintiff claims she did not receive the letter, this created a \"genuine issue of fact\" that could not withstand a grant of summary judgment. For this, the Court reversed the trial court\u00e2s decision, but affirmed it on all other respects. The case therefore, was remanded for further proceedings.\nPosted in: Injury Law, Professional Malpractice & Ethics, Rhode Island Supreme Court, Trusts & Estates",

        "raw_content": "The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, in partnership with the Social Security Administration (SSA), offers E-Verify to help employers instantly determine an employee's eligibility to work. Initial confirmations and \"Tentative Non Confirmations\" are available in as little as three to five seconds.\nThe voluntary Internet-based program works by comparing the information from an employee\u2019s Form I-9, Employment Eligibility Verification, with Department of Homeland Security and Social Security Administration records. Instead of simply retaining I-9s on file in their own offices, employers who enroll in E-Verify must enter the I-9s of all new hires into the program's database.\nThere are both advantages and disadvantages to using E-Verify. Employers must weigh each and its relevance to their circumstances.\nFive Benefits of Signing Up for E-Verify\n\u2022 While E-Verify is generally voluntary, some states require employers to use E-Verify, and it is mandatory for some federal government contracts.\n\u2022 E-Verify could become mandatory nationwide. Adopting it earlier affords employers more time to become familiar with it and adapt.\n\u2022 E-Verify helps companies avoid hiring and training a person who turns out to be ineligible to work. It can eliminate \"No Match\" letters from the SSA notifying an employer that an employee's reported social security number does not match government records.\n\u2022 If an employer hires foreign nationals who recently received a degree in science, technology, engineering, or mathematics, enrolling in E-Verify may make those workers eligible to work an additional 17 months without the employer having to file H-1B petitions on their behalf\n\u2022Although using E-Verify does not provide a \"safe harbor\" from prosecution, it creates a \"rebuttable presumption\" that the employer has not violated section 274A(a)(1)(A) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (\"Unlawful Employment of Aliens\").\nFive Drawbacks of Signing Up for E-Verify\n\u2022 E-Verify is not entirely free. Employers must allot time and resources to training and supervising staff to use the system and deal with the results of queries.\n\u2022 E-Verify makes mistakes, issuing Tentative or Final Non-Confirmations for workers who are authorized to work, or stating \u201cEmployment Authorized\u201d for workers who are not.\n\u2022 Tentative Non-Confirmations open employers up to new legal risks. For example, employees have sued employers for discrimination for not providing proper notice and instructions for contesting a Tentative Non-Confirmation.\n\u2022 E-Verify can lead to liability for privacy and discrimination violations. Federal and state laws require the safeguarding of I-9 information. Employers must make sure that their staff does not intentionally or accidentally misuse E-Verify data.\n\u2022 Because the government can use E-Verify to mine data, it may find employers' hiring mistakes that otherwise would not have been discovered. For example, employers enrolled in E-Verify must complete and submit I-9 forms by the third business day after a new hire's first day of work. Consistently missing this deadline could trigger an I-9 inspection and fine. Employers who are not submitting I-9s to E-Verify might never be caught in a slight delay in completing them.\nIf you have encountered any of these issues in your past or current use of the E-Verify system, you would be best served by discussing the problems with an immigration law attorney as soon as possible.",

        "raw_content": "The Company You Keep: Inside Contemporary Women\u2019s Club Grace Belgravia\nThe wide-ranging new London club is redefining the next generation of female community.\nBy Jackie Caradonio on April 2, 2018\nPhoto: Tom Sullam\nOn a recent winter evening in London, a group of well-dressed women gathered in the atrium of Grace Belgravia, a women-only club set within an elegant space overlooking the Belgravia neighborhood. They assembled among tastefully curated furnishings to hear one of the UK\u2019s foremost fertility specialists discuss the latest research in embryo banking. The ultimate question\u2014and the name of the seminar\u2014was, rather bluntly, Can Egg Freezing Stop My Biological Clock?\nSuch a serious topic might seem unusual fodder for a ladies\u2019 social gathering. But Grace Belgravia is nothing like the women\u2019s clubs of yore: In lieu of the knitting circles and book-of-the-month meet-ups, the organization offers its members\u2014many of whom are CEOs, entrepreneurs, and other high-profile movers and shakers\u2014a well-rounded approach to a better life.\n\u201cWomen are bad at looking after themselves,\u201d says Kate Percival, Grace Belgravia\u2019s CEO and cofounder. \u201cWe put everyone else\u2019s needs before our own, and on the rare occasion that we actually do something good for ourselves, we feel guilty about it.\u201d\nPercival perhaps knows this better than anyone. Ten years ago, when she was the owner of two businesses and not far off from becoming a grandmother, she had a sudden realization. \u201cI thought to myself, \u2018Oh my god, what am I doing?\u2019 I had worked my entire life but never really taken care of myself. I realized there\u2019s no point in having money unless you are healthy enough to enjoy it.\u201d\nIn 2012, Percival opened Grace Belgravia with Dr. Tim Evans and a team of medical experts and therapists. Evans has his own credentials in the world of powerful women: Since 2003, he has been the Apothecary to Her Majesty The Queen and The Royal Household. Together, Percival and Evans created a space devoted not only to women\u2019s curative health\u2014offering everything from blood work to acupuncture\u2014but also to their physical well-being and personal growth, through fitness classes, personal training, lectures, and networking events.\nThe first women\u2019s clubs originated in the 19th century as a way for members to socialize freely, outside the confines of a patriarchal society. They eventually became a locus for change during the middle to late 19th century\u2019s women\u2019s suffrage movement. A century later, in a day and age when feminism is perhaps more widely asserted than ever, Grace Belgravia shares a surprisingly familiar goal\u2014empowerment.\n\u201cI knew that I wanted Grace to be a place about learning and empowerment, and that\u2019s what it has become,\u201d Percival says. Indeed, the club is as much a place for medical checkups and spa treatments as it is a venue for parenting workshops and power breakfasts. And it\u2019s not alone. The Wing launched in Manhattan in 2016 as a women-only coworking and community space, where events have included a lecture by Senator Kirsten Gillibrand and a showing of the documentary The Ticking Biological Clock. In Toronto, Verity features meeting rooms and business centers as well as a fitness center, spa, restaurant, and small hotel. San Diego\u2019s Hera Hub is another coworking space where women network in a spa-like setting. Clubs have also opened in Los Angeles, Seattle, and Paris. And while men need not apply (though many organizations allow them to dine or meet with members during certain hours), Percival assures there\u2019s nothing anti-male about them.\n\u201cWe\u2019re just very pro-women,\u201d she explains. \u201cThere is this narrative right now about women being as good as men, but we have to stop thinking that. We don\u2019t have to be like men to be successful. We have to be ourselves.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "If you filed for bankruptcy, the worst is behind you. We all know when applying for any type of credit, be it a credit card, or a loan to purchase an automobile or a house, the agencies will look to the credit score to guide them towards the proper interest rate or whether or not they will give you a line of credit at all. With that in mind, the road to repairing and improving your credit score begins right away.\nFirst and foremost you have to know what your credit score is, and that will determine your goals and the time to accomplish them. Obtain a credit report and make sure that there are no errors or inconsistencies. There are a number of free credit report dot coms out there, find one that works for you.\nSecond, begin paying your bills on time. Payment history could make up to one third of your credit score. Set yourself reminders, make sure you set it out enough time in advance if you are planning to mail it, and make sure the vendors receive your payments.\nThird, begin applying for credit. And when we say that we mean carefully and cautiously. Multiple application for credit cards can make your FICO score fall. Apply and know your limit. With a goal of reestablishing credit, you need to make certain that you do not fall back into the same habits of impulse buying and maxing out the cards. This will be detrimental to you score. Stay under the limit.\nFourth, beware of credit repair services. You might use them but make sure to thoroughly research them before paying them any money. Scammers are always looking to take advantage of unsuspecting customers. Many will simply take a high fee, and will not do much for your credit score.\nIf have not filed bankruptcy and you are getting harassed by creditors, call (916) 971-8880 to speak with a Rancho Cordova bankruptcy lawyer at our firm today.\nBankruptcy Lawyer StocktonBankruptcyCREDIT REPAIR AFTER BANKRUPTCY",

In the Evening\nDe: a AmoredPanther\nIn the Evening\u201d is the first song on English rock band Led Zeppelin\u2019s final studio album, In Through the Out Door, released in 1979. The track is the most straightforward rock song on the album, yet at the same time introduces the more synthesizer driven sound characteristic of the album.\nThe track features an extended distorted introductory section led by Jimmy Page\u2019s guitar. Page used a violin bow to create the droning effect in the beginning of the song[1], although it is possible he also used a Gizmotron, however Page would play an very similair section to the intro of \u201cIn The Evening\u201d during \u201cDazed and Confused\u201d using a violin bow (As can be heard at their 1973 Tampa Concert). The introduction was taken from a soundtrack Page was working on for Kenneth Anger\u2019s film Lucifer Rising. After Page had a falling out with Anger, the soundtrack for the film ended up being provided by Bobby Beausoleil, a member of the Manson Family.\nThe creation of this song can be traced largely to Led Zeppelin bassist and keyboardist, John Paul Jones. When the band was recording this album, Page and drummer John Bonham would usually show up at the studio very late and work through the night. In their absence, \u201cIn The Evening\u201d started out with just drums and keyboards created by John Paul Jones, who had a new drum machine to work with.\nRobert Plant\u2019s lyrics are about how the rich and famous are still exposed to pain and suffering, just in different ways.[citation needed]\nThe song was performed live at Led Zeppelin concerts during 1979 and 1980. During the 1979 performances, this song would be played directly after Page\u2019s guitar distortion solo. One live version, from Led Zeppelin\u2019s performance at Knebworth in 1979, can be seen on the Led Zeppelin DVD.\nA cover version of \u201cIn the Evening\u201d was recorded by Jason Bonham, son of Led Zeppelin drummer John Bonham, and released on his 1997 album In the Name of My Father \u2013 The Zepset",

        "raw_content": "On 06/03/2011 By runninfromthelawIn Deep Thoughts, Marathons\nConversation with my 11 year old son today (he started it, we weren\u2019t talking about running before this):\nSon: Remember when you used to have to train for a 5k?\nMe: Yes. 5k used to be a long way for me. I had to walk 3 times in my first 5k race. Now I don\u2019t have to walk at all in a 5k.\nSon: Well you have to walk in a marathon.\nMe: Only sometimes, if I get hurt or sometimes through a waterstop while I\u2019m drinking.\nSon: You could run a whole marathon without walking?\nMe: That\u2019s the idea. I know I can run 3 1/2 hours without walking, because I\u2019ve done it in training runs.\nSon: Well that\u2019s just jogging, not running.\nMe: No. It\u2019s running. It\u2019s at a pace faster than what you or dad or Meg could race a 5k.\nSon: How come you always do good in training runs and you screw up in marathons?\nIt\u2019s a good question though. One that I know most runners wonder about. We have FABULOUS training runs and cycles and then race day comes and BAM another screw up. Why is that? My answer to Carter was that marathons are different because when you are racing them your whole pace is much faster than training paces and the race itself is much longer than the training runs. It\u2019s the faster pace and the extra 6 miles that do most people in. Looking back at my previous 6 marathons, I\u2019ve figured out what has screwed me up, other than just the overall faster pace and longer distance.\nFor me, my marathons have been screwed up because of:\nWeather conditions, obviously. Heat. Cold/Rain. Humidity. I\u2019ve had them all and they all screwed up my races.\nInjuries. Pulled quads. IT bands. Phantom injuries. Leg cramps. It\u2019s hard to achieve a race goal when these things happen. (For me, I think some of them \u2013 the cramps \u2013 were due to improper hydration, which I\u2019ve now figured out how to do).\nGoing out too fast. This is a big one for me. When I look back at my paces in the early miles, I really think if I had stayed at a more controlled pace for the level of training I was at and for my goal, things may have turned out better in some of the marathons I\u2019ve run.\nBeing too ambitious with my goals. I look back at my first marathon and even my second, where I was trying to BQ (3:45 at the time) and when I look through my log and blog and examine the training I was doing, I don\u2019t think I was really in shape for that kind of race.\nWhat other reasons have you guys (my 5 readers!) experienced as being the reason for your marathon \u201cscrew ups\u201d?\nAnd, as I was talking to my son about this and thinking about it later, I thought about that even though to me (and many of you) our marathons are screw ups, it is really frickin amazing, if you think about it, to be able to RUN for 3 or 4 HOURS without stopping. If you had told me 5 years ago that I would be able to do that, I wouldn\u2019t have believed it.\nBorn to Run: The Naked Tour\n2 thoughts on \u201cOut of the mouths of babes\u201d\nI LOVE this. It made me laugh out loud. You are 100% correct\u2026every marathon (no matter how long it takes to cross the finish line) is an achievement. It really is an incredible feat. We are just so focused on BQing now that we lose sight of that.\nYour 4 reasons are exactly why I\u2019ve screwed up. As you said before, all the elements have to come together perfectly on race day. If they don\u2019t, you\u2019re screwed!\nTraining for months and laying it all out for just one day is a big gamble (as you know), sometimes there\u2019s not a definitive reason why the race doesn\u2019t go as you\u2019d like. Perhaps your legs are tired (esp if air travel is involved) or your stomach isn\u2019t happy but sometimes it\u2019s just that the stars aren\u2019t aligned. Things feel tougher than they should, for whatever reason, your mind gets the better of you, you\u2019re not focused, could be any or all of these things. I know that\u2019s probably not the easiest thing to explain to your son but it happens \ud83d\ude42",

        "raw_content": "Shabnam Ozlati, MA\nShabnam Ozlati, MA is Doctoral Candidate in Organizational Behavior, Claremont Graduate University.\nA few months before successfully completing her medical degree in Tehran, Shabnam immigrated to the U.S. and began studying at Cal State Northridge in Southern California. At Northridge, she was recognized as a Sally Casanova Pre-Doctoral Scholar for work in her Master\u2019s program in Human Factors. The Casanova Scholarship brought Shabnam to the Institute of Organizational and Program Evaluation Research at Claremont Graduate University, where she quickly became a vital member of the research team. By the time her first semester as a doctoral student was underway, she was involved in the First Five L.A. evaluation projects being conducted by Drs. Donaldson, Christie, and Azzam to improve the quality of life for young children in the Los Angeles area.\nShabnam\u2019s own research interests involve the transdisciplinary field of knowledge management, an area that combines disciplines such as organizational sciences, information science, cognitive science, education and training, management, and business. She is interested in developing and evaluating knowledge management initiatives. Knowledge management (or \u201cKM\u201d), she explains, can be defined as \u201ccollaborative and integrated processes or systems for creating, capturing, organizing and sharing organizations\u2019 intellectual assets\u201d. Knowledge flows through multiple entities including individuals, best known methods or lessons learned, documents, routines, systems, and methods. \u201cMore and more organizations are realizing that knowledge embedded in their establishment is a huge asset. Knowledge assets produce benefits such as competitive advantages but the dynamic nature of outcomes makes it difficult to measure the success of KM initiatives.\u201d\nShabnam is doing her research with Dr. Donaldson in an evaluation of knowledge management initiatives. \u201cThe knowledge management field is fairly new, only about 10 years old, and has been dominated by information systems people who can now facilitate the process through better technology. I am interested in the human and organizational aspects of this, especially what defines a successful knowledge management practice.\u201d Different stakeholders expect different outcomes for a successful knowledge management initiative, like financial returns, increasing creativity and innovation, and supporting decision making, which sparks many debates. Shabnam and Dr. Donaldson are developing different models, and checking them against empirical research to see what works in knowledge management.\nAside from her current research, Shabnam also assisted Dr. Donaldson to edit a book with Drs. Tina Christie and Melvin Mark entitled What Counts as Credible Evidence in Evaluation and Applied Research. She is working on a project to analyze CGU psychology faculty publications and citations, as well as some other technology related projects. Her efforts have been particularly instrumental in making Claremont Graduate University\u2019s conferences and workshops available to a global audience through cutting-edge web technology.\nAs if that weren\u2019t enough, Shabnam leads a Knowledge Management research group, created out of a transdisciplinary consortium on the topic that she helped organize in her first year. Her many efforts and academic achievements have no gone unrecognized. Shabnam was recently awarded the Larry and Jane Rosen Fellowship. \u201cIt feels so good to be recognized. I am happy that the faculty have noticed my interests and enthusiasm.\u201d In her leisure, she studies about space and individual and social well-being of humans in space and artificial environments. She has a certificate degree in Space Studies from International Space University in France.",

        "raw_content": "Affirmation, Identity and Purpose of Jesus' Mission\nTwenty-fourth Sunday in Ordinary Time, Year B - September 16th, 2018\nToday's Gospel story (Mark 8:27-35) is about affirmation, identity and purpose of Jesus' mission. Mark makes this episode the centerpiece of his gospel. It comes immediately after Jesus' healing of the blind man of Bethsaida.\nThis restoration of sight must surely set the scene for Peter's confession of faith and the glorious moment of the Transfiguration. Jesus' nature is now gradually revealed to the disciples. Their blindness is cured but they still do not understand the full meaning of what they see. From this point on, everything in Mark's gospel moves toward the crucifixion.\nIf there was ever a \"turning point\" in Mark's account of Jesus' public ministry, it is today's story. During my graduate studies in Israel in the 1990s, I had the privilege of working closely with the Israeli archeological team on the excavations in Caesarea Philippi, now known as \"Banias\" referring back to \"Paneas\" or the Greek god Pan. Sexual excess and violence ran rampant in this center for the worship of the Greek god Pan.\nAt the time of Jesus, a fertility cult was thriving in this pagan temple on the northern border of Israel and Syria at the foot of majestic Mount Hermon. Jesus and his disciples entered the area of Caesarea Philippi as part of a long journey from their familiar surroundings.\nCaesarea Philippi had been built by Philip, another generation of the Herodian family, and it was a garrison town for the Roman army. Here in this center of pagan worship to the Greek god Pan, Jesus asks about their understanding of his identity. Jesus asks what people are saying about him. How do they see his work? Who is he in their minds? Probably taken aback by the question, the disciples dredge their memories for overheard remarks, past conversations, opinions and gossip circulating in the fishing towns of the lake area. Jesus himself is aware of some of what is being said and knows only too well the hurtful attitudes of his own townsfolk of Nazareth.\nIn response to Jesus' question, the disciples list a whole series of labels that people have applied to Jesus. These names reveal the different expectations held about him. Some thought of him as an Elijah, working toward a real confrontation with the powers that be. Some saw him more like Jeremiah, no less vehement but concentrating more on the inner journey, the private side of life.\nJesus pursues the question further -- \"What do you say?\" and Peter responds, \"You are the Messiah\" of the one true God. Jesus acknowledges this identification but forbids them from making his messianic role known to avoid confusing it with ambiguous contemporary ideas associated with that title. Then Jesus goes on to say, somewhat enigmatically, that the Son of Man must suffer, be rejected, die, and rise again.\nThe concept of Messiah in Judaism\nThere was no single concept of \"Messiah\" in Judaism. The idea of Messiah \"anointed one\" as an ideal king descended from David is the earliest known to us, but in the Maccabaean period (163-63 B.C.) the Greek Testaments of the Twelve Patriarchs give evidence of belief in a Messiah from the tribe of Levi, to which the Maccabaean family belonged. The Dead Sea Scrolls contain various ideas: a priestly Messiah and the (lay) Messiah of Israel; a prophet like Moses (Deuteronomy 18:18-19) who is also the star coming out of Jacob (Numbers 23:15-17); but also the Davidic Messiah. Melchizedek is a deliverer also, but is not called Messiah.\nTo proclaim Jesus as the Messiah was a loaded and dangerous statement. It was all that Jesus' enemies needed to use against him, and already there were many who were ready to enlist under the banner of a royal pretender. But, far more than this, such a role was not Jesus' destiny. He would not and could not be that kind of militaristic or political Messiah.\nIdentifying Jesus' role today\nThe struggle to identify Jesus and his role as Messiah continues today. Some say individual Christians and the whole church should be Elijah figures, publicly confronting systems, institutions and national policies. That was the way Elijah saw his task. Read the First Book of Kings (Chapters 17 to 21) to see what Elijah endured. Those filled with violence don't usually bring about peace and justice in situations that are terribly unjust and wrong. Some say, like Jeremiah, that the reign of Christ, through his Church, is the personal and private side of life. And there are indeed many who would like to reduce religion and faith to a private affair in our world today.\nJesus probes beyond both approaches and asks, \"You, who do you say I am.\" In Peter's answer, \"You are Messiah,\" blurted out with his typical impetuosity, we are given a concept that involves both of the above ideas and goes beyond them. The Messiah came into society, and into individual lives, in a total way, reconciling the distinction between public and private. The quality of our response to this question is the best gauge of the quality of our discipleship. Everyone at some stage must come to Caesarea Philippi and answer the question, \"You, who do you say I am?\"\nSome facts about Jesus\nAs we continue to give answer to the question: \"Who is Jesus for us?\" let us recall certain facts about Jesus' background, identity and mission that have prepared the mission of the Church in the world today:\n1) Jesus was born of political tribe of Judah -- not the priestly tribe of Levi nor the priestly family of Zaddok. Jesus was not a politician.\n2) Jesus did, however, have a keen sense of politics. World mission cannot be undertaken independently without serious interaction with politics.\n3) Jesus established himself at Capernaum rather than at Qumran in the desert or in some remote village or place away from the thick of things. In Capernaum, on the northwest shore of the Sea of Galilee, there was a main road, tax collectors, and dealings with the Roman centurion. Jesus was very much at home in Capernaum, not in Jerusalem.\n4) Jesus bonded himself with the unclean, the sick and dying, with sinners, and those living on the fringes of society. Through his life, Jesus puts biblical justice into practice in proclaiming the Beatitudes. Authentic justice is a bonding of one's self with the sick, the disabled, the poor and the hungry. But he did not neglect others as well. He dined with the rich and the mighty as well as with the poor and downtrodden. He befriended sinners and the wretched of his times- never condoning their behavior, but inviting them to an alternative lifestyle. He teaches us that by \"being with people\" he also teaches and heals. His human solidarity with the unclean, the unjust and sinners also saves.\n5) Jesus did not preach the political kingdom of David but the Kingdom of God. He had a great ability to appeal to everything and incorporate everything into his vision of kingdom. During his lifetime, he only tried to fulfill the hopes of Israel. The Good News he preached was ultimately about love. Contrary to some popular opinions still around today, Jesus was not a social revolutionary. He did not denounce injustice, but confronted it with love. It is striking how many of his parables assume situations of injustice, not to condemn the injustice but to show the zeal, ingenuity and perseverance of the unjust as a model for those who would live by love. Still, those who lived by injustice made no mistake when they recognized in Jesus and in those who followed him a fundamental challenge to their way of life.\nJesus words at the end of today's Gospel \"Whoever wishes to come after me must deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me. For whoever wishes to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake and that of the gospel will save it.\" [vv. 34-35] challenge all believers to authentic discipleship and total commitment to himself through self-renunciation and acceptance of the cross of suffering, even to the sacrifice of life itself. The way of the Cross was not for Jesus alone but also for everyone who professed to follow him. There might be victory and glory ahead, but it was only for those who could take up the Cross. If Peter or anyone else should reject this demand it meant to be on the side of Satan. Life seen as mere self-centered earthly existence and lived in denial of Christ ends in destruction, but when lived in loyalty to Christ, despite earthly death, it arrives at fullness of life.\n[The readings for the 24th Sunday in Ordinary Time are: Isaiah 50:5-9a; James 2:14-18; and Mark 8:27-35]\nOrder your copy of the complete collection of weekly biblical reflections:\nWords Made Flesh: Scripture Reflections for Year B",

        "raw_content": "PREDICT-HUMAN PROJECT AGAINST NATURE\u2019S SECRET EXPERIMENT\nDANGEROUS GERMS ARE ON RISE\nVIRUS HUNTERS FIGHT AGAINST THE DEADLY EVOLUTION GAME\n\u201cIt\u2019s easier to reach for the stars when you stand on the shoulders of giants.\u201d\n\u2015 C.J.Peters, Virus Hunter:Thirty Years of Battling Hot Viruses Around the World\nThe Earth is dying so the people too. All over the world, there are so many signs of broken life cycles and it seems that noone and nothing can change it or stop it. We as a human race has did all wrong in the last hundred years of our pathetic existence. What we harvest now and what we will harvest in the near future is just a logical outcome of our rude ignorance. Industrial colonization, greed for profit, hunger for corporate success and cold-blooded and heartless raping and killing of the ecosystem has turned the world into the chess game. There are no more kings and queens that are able to save the kingdom, we are simply all played and fooled. The worst sin ever is to believe we will manage to fool the nature and its own order.After the warning phase that we ignored, we jumped into the HIDE and SEEK phase and it looks like we don\u2019t have any chance against the evolution orchestrated revenge.\nAt least, how we can fight an invisible enemy? Deadly, terrific viruses and bacterias that are coming out to feed themselves on our blood and flesh. They are stealth soldiers that are able to smuggle throughout every border, they are capable to confront any weapon and to defeat all military forces. They work for the secret service of Mother Nature and they do not have have the art of negotiation. The ultimate war is the only thing that is definitely certain when it comes to the rise of horrible germs what are attacking the humans.\nIn February 2017, there were a lot of information in media based on the scarring statistic about the new emerging infectious diseases. There is no end of the tragedy but its fresh beginning. Instead of sending them back to the memory, we must see them again, like a reborn Phoenix bird from the ash.\nAvian flu fested with new 79 deaths in China, just in January, but H7N9 has a notable, pandemic capacity to be transformed into the mutated version of professional killer, almost like Ebola. The scientists scream out about the dangerous Crimean-Congo haemorrhagic fever that is also very primitive virus but skilled to kill without mercy. It is known for years but lately has been on the rise because of the contact of people with the blood of infected animals. The sick animal is bitten by ticks which are vectors and reservoirs of this virus. That sick animal is often killed by people for the purpose of food or any other slaughter and that is how the virus is having the pleasant journey.From the deep and dark rain forests, through the vectors to the domestic or abused animals in slaughterhouses. The people that have the primary contact with the blood of infected animals are those who are first reported as sick:\u201cThe virus bothers researchers and doctors for a number of reasons, one of them cultural: it\u2019s endemic in some Muslim countries where large-scale animal slaughter is part of celebrating (and feasting) for the holiday of Eid al-Adha.Doctors in Pakistan, for example, have warned of a potential health catastrophe unless slaughtering practices change, as the feasting holiday will be in the summer for the next 10-15 years, coinciding with tick season and CCHF prevalence.There are similar concerns in Afghanistan, where public health officials have been warning the public about using gloves and other protective clothing when handling animals.\u201d Something must be changed in the practice that obviously is not hygienically related. Then, comes the MERS based in Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, less dangerous relative of SARS but also very aggressive and it is stated that this disease could occur in the period of Hajj pilgrimage when many people are sticking together and when the potential for a bug to be transmitted is very high. The next invisible warrior worthy of attention is a Nipah virus. It is known as a result of deforestation, especially in Malaysia and natural vector, the large fruit bat is moving from the destroyed wildlife into the farming zones and infecting the domestic animals and people.\nThe microbes are not naive haters that could be simply erased from the Planet with the magical pharmaceutical weapons of the mankind. They are profiled to escape the traps and they are created to adapt very easy and to survive. Charles Darwin said that the strongest species in one that learns fast how to adapt on the changes. That species will always survive and viruses have never failed to understand this process of existence.\nNevertheless, the hope for the homo sapiens is not totally lost. Maybe we are not the most intelligent creatures in this universe but we do have among us those who are awarded with pure logic, common sense, rational and mathematical calculation and brave hearts. They do not accept to be defeated by brainless molecular sharks that want to live longer and die later. Lets call them virus hunters. They are special people, that risk their own lives to save ours. They are doctors for viruses, they love them and adore them but they learn how to kill them before they kill us. Their job is not the one you can ever be paid enough. They don\u2019t have work time because they are always at work. Viruses never sleep and if virus hunters fall asleep, it will be the worst nightmare.\nWhat they are doing? They are traveling around the globe, leading the demanding expeditions in the rain forests and strange ecosystems so to find the undiscovered viruses which have a glorious potential to become new epidemics. The rain forests are secret laboratories of the nature, the places where everything is beginning and ending. According to one of the famous virus hunters, Kevin Olival from the EcoHealth Alliance, the rainforest is a biological bonanza:\u201cIt\u2019s a biodiversity hotspot.This rich diversity in the rain forest doesn\u2019t apply to just creatures we can see. It also applies to creatures we can\u2019t see. Microcreatures. Nanocreatures. You guessed it: viruses.\u201d\nThe idea for the virus hunting program has been created by the University of California, Davis, School of Veterinary Medicine and the $200 million expensive project called PREDICT, directly financed by the U.S. government with the main goal to discover the unknown viruses that have hosts in different wild animals and that are waiting for a right moment to jump from one species to another and to cause the cataclysm. Among the most famous vectors for the deadly viruses, the bats take the first place. They are carrying the viruses in each part of their small bodies and they can cause the pandemics more than we can imagine. If we kill the bats, we won\u2019t solve the burning virus issue. Why? There are no rainforests without bats because those small creatures are so called key pollinators for more than 500 species of flowers and trees. Not only that, bats are keeping insect population under rational number. The only problem is when we go to their habitat and try to take all that doesn\u2019t belong to us. We wake the old spirits of death and we bring death into our happy cities, blaming the animals for catastrophe we caused.\nThe viruses have lived in cohabitation with their vectors for more than tens of thousand years. It is like a silent harmony. Nobody is harming nobody. When one species is too much for the nature, the viruses is getting out from the darkness to solve the problem and clean the ground. People are those who disturbed all, chasing after palm oil trees and exploiting the beautiful wildlife for the cheap satisfactions. They go into the forbidden areas and take the treasures that is cursed. They challenge the viruses and we all pay for such a high level of crime against the Earth\u2019s resources.\nFirst of all, we must stop messing with the Nature. The second, we must defeat our greedy and egoistic companies that ruin the natural habitats and produce the biological and ecological chaos. The natural order and harmony must be respected and the wildlife must have its own space. The borders among species should be set up and should be respected by all. It is just a matter of time when new Ebola will eat us all, like we have eaten this Planet for years. In that case, the courageous virus hunters can\u2019t do anything to stop the final response of the humiliated and demolished Mother Nature.\n3 thoughts on \u201cPREDICT-HUMAN PROJECT AGAINST NATURE\u2019S SECRET EXPERIMENT\u201d\nWhat an amazingly well-researched and well-written article, Sarah ! You have spoiled all of us, the readers, that we have come to expect no less of you !\nAs you have indicated in this article, as well as in so many of your prior articles, namely, \u201cRabies-Fatal Virus with Enigmatic Nature\u201d, \u201cNIPAH Virus: The monster comes from illegal Exotic Meats\u201d, \u201cMonkeypox Outbreak: The nightmare starts when we are awake\u201d, \u201cHantavirus: Infected Rodents Bring Fatal Disease\u201d, \u201cBrazil in torment: Yellow Fever Outbreak\u201d, and \u201cThe Dark Rainforest: Factory of Deadly Viruses?\u201d , deforestation has led to a new interface or frontier between humans and viruses !\n\u201cHumans\u201d have not learned their lesson, nor will they, until it\u2019s too late ! This is the dear price \u201chumanity\u201d is willing to pay, and in fact, is going to pay because of its utmost greed, and selfishness ! For too long \u201chumans\u201d have been driven by extreme greed for money, and absolute selfishness vis-\u00e0-vis all other species on the planet !\nThe dire consequences will be no one\u2019s fault but theirs ! The simplicity of humans\u2019 minds and their lack of farsightedness will be the cause of humanity\u2019s debacle !\nThank you, Sarah, for this outstanding article !\nSarah\u2019s provocative and impassioned article brought to mind the issue of extra-planetary resources: in various First World states, specific private and public sector investment is occurring in astrobiology and exobiology (i.e. study/research into the potential to cultivate bacteria and food resources in space and on other planets). This is highly ambiguous and somewhat perilous, as the year 1492 proved, when Old World microorganisms entered The New World environmental systems and instigated significant negative changes in the regional natural environments (e.g. via European bees, worms and soil bacteria). Already, The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) of the US-government has proclaimed that bacteria from Earth has survived in space unintentionally; conveyed on equipment by astronauts. We do not know the possible negative consequences of this\u2026\nCertain microorganisms on Earth are exceedingly resilient. For example, tardigrades are water-dwelling, eight-legged, segmented micro-animals. They are one of the most resilient animals known: they can survive extreme conditions that would be rapidly fatal to nearly all other known life forms. They can withstand temperature ranges from 1 K (\u2212458 \u00b0F/ \u2212272 \u00b0C) to about 420 K (300 \u00b0F/ 150 \u00b0C) for several minutes, pressures about six times greater than those found in the deepest ocean trenches, ionizing radiation at doses hundreds of times higher than the lethal dose for a human, and the vacuum of outer space. They can go without food or water for more than 30 years, drying out to the point where they are 3% or less water, only to rehydrate, forage and reproduce.\nThey are not considered extremophilic, because they are not adapted to exploit these conditions. This means that their chances of dying increase the longer they are exposed to the extreme environments. Whereas true extremophiles thrive in a physically or geochemically extreme environment that would harm most other organisms.\nMicrobial ecologists, planetary scientists and geochemists are particularly interested in studying extremophiles, as many organisms of this type are capable of surviving in environments similar to those known to exist on other planets. For example, Mars may have regions in its deep subsurface permafrost that could possess endolith communities. In 2014, scientists confirmed the existence of microorganisms living half a mile below the ice of Antarctica.\nThe survival of some microorganisms exposed to outer space has been studied using both simulated facilities and low Earth orbit exposures. Bacteria were some of the first organisms investigated, when in 1960 a Russian satellite carried Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus, and Aerobacter aerogenes into orbit. Experiments of the adaption of microbes in space has yielded unpredictable results, though: while the microorganism may weaken, they can increase in their disease-causing potency.\nExtremophiles have adapted to live in some of the most extreme environments on Earth. This includes hypersaline lakes, arid regions, deep sea, acidic sites, cold and dry polar regions and permafrost. The existence of extremophiles has led to the speculation that microorganisms could survive the harsh conditions of extraterrestrial environments and be used as model organisms to understand biological systems in these environments. Research and testing of microorganisms in outer space could be applied to panspermia and or terra-forming.\nThe first challenge in cultivating plants in space is how to induce plants to grow without gravity. This runs into difficulties regarding the effects of gravity on root development, providing appropriate types of lighting, and other challenges. In particular, the nutrient supply to root as well as the nutrient biogeochemical cycles, and the microbiological interactions in soil-based substrates are particularly complex. In 1982, the crew of the Soviet Salyut 7 space station grew some Arabidopsis; thus, becoming the first plants to flower and produce seeds in space. Since 2003, Russian cosmonauts have been eating half of their crops, while the other half goes towards further research. In 2016, US-astronauts announced that a zinnia (sunflower family) had blossomed aboard The International Space Station.\nThis is all impressive and interesting, but what about studies and research into how all of this biological R & D in space might be impacting upon space itself and the nearest solar systems? Sarah\u2019s insightful article concludes with a reference to the \u2018virus hunters\u2019 on Earth, but these scientists now need to apply their acumen and skills beyond Earth, if humans are to prevent the errors of 1492\u2026\nThank you, Sarah, for an excellent article with interesting content. I am not sure what to call you my dear, the mother of people, or the mother our beautiful nature. You are amazing! Your article serves as reminder for all of us who are observant. I am in full agreement with you that we must stop messing with our beautiful nature, and strive to defeat all that ruin the natural habitats. As we are enjoying this beautiful planet, we must work hard on preserving and protecting it for the generations to come. God would not surely destroy unjustly human habitation so long as the people are doing the right thing. May God guide our leaders to take some serious and positive steps toward saving our planet from being destroyed on our hands.",

        "raw_content": "The third pocket\nThe next wave in the social investing space is to create a market of socially-oriented investment funds that are neither purely philanthropic nor purely market-based in their return expectations.\nPut more simply \u2013 there\u2019s a belief and an assertion that somewhere between pure philanthropy and pure investing, there\u2019s a class of capital that\u2019s willing to get a lower expected economic return for a higher expected social return. The most common term for this is \u201cimpact investing\u201d and it\u2019s applied quite loosely \u2013 but it implies a level of proactive care for social impact that\u2019s a generation beyond the screened investment funds of the 1990s that invested in various flavors of \u201cvice-free\u201d stocks.\nThere\u2019s no doubt that there\u2019s a middle ground here, that it\u2019s important that we find it, describe it, and understand it, because by doing so we will, over time, find much more capital and much more savvy investors willing to occupy that space.\nThat said, it\u2019s not as easy as it sounds. There\u2019s a pervasive myth out there that there are enormous piles of investor money poised to be \u201cunlocked\u201d if we create the right product and investment opportunity.\nHaving raised both philanthropic and sub-market return capital, I would describe the mental model people hold of how this will work as:\nThat is, people typically expect the holders of capital to look at a spectrum of expected financial return and implicitly find every opportunity further to the right (closer to a positive return) more attractive than every opportunity further to the left.\nThe reality, I\u2019ve found, is different, with a picture that looks like this (yes, those are pockets).\nNamely, the potential individual philanthropist / investor has two pockets, two types of capital that they\u2019re used to deploying. The first pocket is for their investing, and it\u2019s where most of their money goes and where they think about financial return. The second pocket is for philanthropy, which is also a defined practice with its own decision-making process \u2013 whatever that process may be.\nAsking someone to make an impact investment isn\u2019t a move along a rational economic scale, with each step proving marginally more attractive. It\u2019s asking someone to do two things instead of one:\nCreate a new pocket\nInvest out of that pocket with us\nThere\u2019s nothing wrong or right about this, it\u2019s just two sales you have to make instead of one; two decisions instead of one \u2013 at least if you\u2019re talking to anyone who hasn\u2019t developed that pocket on their own.\nDoing this is important \u2013 it is, in fact, how markets are created, and the more that this becomes accepted practice (written about, talked about, understood and supported by financial advisers and investment professional, etc), the more that third pocket gets created for everyone, not just for the pioneering impact investors.\nIt\u2019s important work, but it\u2019s hard work, and until we understand it as such people will continue to throw around numbers blithely, implying that trillions of dollars are waiting on the sidelines, ready to be deployed in pursuit of social change.\nNot yet. At least not until we all, together, create that third pocket.\nPosted in Raising Capital\tdecisionsimpact investingphilanthropyRaising Capital\n\u2039 PreviousFear.less this month\nNext \u203aDo philanthropy bloggers care about donors?\n9 thoughts on \u201cThe third pocket\u201d\nor, we show that there is a bridge between philanthropy and full return investing and that the two worlds are linked to each other and not separate pockets. it isn\u2019t either/or. there isn\u2019t a bright line difference. I have found donors to get really excited by the idea of bridging the two worlds with the \u201cthird pocket\u201d\nJeff, I love the idea of bridging \u2013 and am encouraged to hear that you\u2019ve found people to be excited about it. That\u2019s exactly what we need to see!\nI love the pockets.\nAnd I agree: I\u2019ve talked about how people view what they have in two ways: Stuff as Capital and Stuff as Gifts. The first is used to generate wealth, and the second used to generate goodwill. (I\u2019m focusing on how it\u2019s hard to get money from one pocket to the other, specifically capital to gift).\nIt will be interesting to see if an impact investing pocket arises.\nI do think there is a pocket between 0% and market returns now, though, in socially responsible investing, i.e. capital investments in for-profit business that pledge social goodness. And it is distinctly separate from regular investing. I know of endowment funds where a portion of investment funds is set aside for the social investing. And when it comes to totaling the annual returns, the two sets of investments are judged separately; the return on the regular market is mentally held separately than the socially responsible market. Agrees with your theory of pockets rather than a spectrum.\nI\u2019m not entirely sure there are two separate \u201cpockets\u201d that need to \u2018created\u2019 and \u2018pitched\u2019. There is a wide variety of donors out there, all with different motivations and expectations. I believe your continuum should say \u201cgrantmaking\u201d instead of \u201cphilanthropy\u201d on the left-side \u2013 its the area of grantmaking that donors will not expect any financial return \u2013 the idea is to provide the sort of financing that enables a non-profit to achieve something and is not stuck in a cycle of repayment. The term impact investing or mission-related investing indicates how the \u2018endowment\u2019 or corpus of a foundation is applied \u2013 the endowment could be invested in a way that it furthers a foundation\u2019s mission, e.g., a foundation focused on healthcare would not be furthering its mission if any part of its corpus were invested in tobacco. The middle ground that you talk about that intersects philanthropy and investment is actively being explored by a range of foundations and philanthropists \u2013 within the past few years there\u2019s been a dramatic acceleration \u2013 there are already a bunch of high-quality intermediaries, and deal-flow is also better \u2013 and promises to only get better. I\u2019m sure you\u2019ve looked at FSG, the McKinsey study, Felicitas, Rockefeller etc. The \u201cthird pocket\u201d as your post calls it, has already been created, and is in the process of becoming deeper.\nSunny, thank you for your comment. I\u2019m definitely aware of the FSG, McKinsey, Felicitas, Rockefeller, etc. studies. My point is somewhat different \u2013 namely that \u201cwe\u201d (the organizations that create the products and write the studies) don\u2019t create the third pocket. It needs to be created in the mind of each individual decision-maker, something that is immensely helped along by the development of the practice of investing in this way and the development of the impact investing market. Just because we write the report doesn\u2019t mean the philanthropist buys into the mindset (and I should say I\u2019m talking more about individuals here though it applies to foundation officers as well).\nI completely agree with your thesis, IF we are talking about the kind of investor that is wealthy and financially educated enough to put his money in some kind of closed fund (i.e. private equity, venture capital).\nI currently work with these kind of individuals, and even if I am not a great fan of generalizations, I have to say that according to my experience most of these people do generally really have two separate pockets, one for philantrophy \u2013 money lost \u2013 and one for investing \u2013 returns expected.\nThere may be the chance to create a third pocket for these kind of individuals \u2013 and here I think a fair big amount of advocacy is needed \u2013 but my opinion is that the big challenge (and the big money) is to attract \u201cnormal people\u201d to put some of the money they usually dedicated to charity (money lost) in these kind of \u201cget your money back\u201d open funds.\nDon\u2019t you think that part of Kiva success is related to this particular side of the story?\nPingback: For Profit, For Good? \u00ab Innovation & Entrepreneurship in Education\nPingback: For Profit, For Good? | New Schools Venture Fund\nPingback: For Profit, For Good? | New Schools Seed Fund",

        "raw_content": "What Happens When Business Contract Terms Are Not Met?\nBusiness contracts are vital to the business world. They ensure that corporations and individuals fulfill their obligations and they can be legally enforced. When the terms of a contract are not met, it is considered a breach of contract and the injured party can then file a lawsuit.\nWhat Happens to the Non-Breaching Party?\nThe non-breaching party is then released from any obligations tying them to the contract, and the matter can be taken to court in order to settle things. The court may then award damages, and in most cases, it is a monetary value. A business litigation attorney who specializes in contract law will be a very important advisor in this matter.\nBe Aware of What Happens When Filing a Breach of Contract\nBefore filing a breach of contract, it\u2019s important to be aware of the many different types of remedies that are available. Depending on the situation, it may be desirable to gain a monetary value out of the dispute, or it may be more desirable to have the offending party uphold their end of the bargain as about the contract obligations. Besides these remedies, reformation may be another option.\nConsult a Palm Springs Lawyer for Corporate Disputes\nBefore filing a lawsuit, it is very advisable to consult a Palm Springs corporate lawyer in order to discuss the details of the case and what the best method to take will be. A capable attorney can clear things up and determine if there are any limitations or notice requirements that may have been overlooked. There could also be alternative resolutions that they can bring to the light that can save money and time.\nPosted in Civil Litigation\t| Tagged Corporate Law, Palm Springs",

        "raw_content": "Today is the twelfth anniversary of this blog (see my main blog page, here). In the last dozen years of blogging, the education world hasn\u2019t changed significantly. I started writing in the middle of the No Child Left Behind era, didn\u2019t stop during Race to the Top, and continue now in the era of Betsy the Billionaire.\nI should probably rename this blog, \u201cThe Dead Horse Blog,\u201d \u201cThink Like Sisyphus,\u201d \u201cThe Wall: Beat Your Head Here,\u201d or maybe simply \u201cBelabored.\u201d\nOn the other hand, my mission, when I began here, was to have a place to vent. It still works for that despite the depressing political and educational landscape. And who knows, maybe last year\u2019s \u201cTeachers\u2019 Spring\u201d will catch on and the teachers in Indiana will rise up. So I\u2019ll keep going\u2026just in case someone is listening.\nHere are a dozen things I wrote in the early years of this blog\u2026mostly about things that haven\u2019t changed yet.\nHow to Guarantee School Improvement \u2013 September 2009\nLegislators, other politicians, and policymakers who are responsible for public education policy must send their children to the lowest performing traditional public school in their home district.\nTeaching is Doing \u2013 January 2014\nNearly half of all teachers leave the field within their first 5 years. Many find out the hard way that they aren\u2019t cut out for teaching\u2026or that it\u2019s not as easy as they thought it would be. Many didn\u2019t realize that it\u2019s not a 6 hours a day, 9 months a year job, but one that takes hours and hours of preparation, thought and work. Many can\u2019t handle the emotional investment in the lives of children.\nThe old adage which states that \u201cthose who can\u2019t, teach\u201d has it backward. Teaching is doing\u2026and it\u2019s those who can\u2019t who must move on to some other, less important line of work.\nAmerican Schools are Not Failing \u2013 October 2014\nHomeless children comprise one of the fastest growing demographics in America\u2019s public schools. We know that poverty has a negative effect on student achievement, and homeless students, like other students who live in poverty, have lower achievement levels and a higher dropout rate than children from middle-class families.\nPoliticians and policymakers can\u2019t solve the problem of homelessness, hunger, and poverty. They dump it on the public schools, and then blame teachers, schools, and students when the problems don\u2019t go away.\nIf I Could Go Back and Do It Again \u2013 March 2010\nThis quote names my biggest teaching frustration, written a few months before I retired. Now, eight years later, when I think about the years I spent teaching I try to remember the successes I had \u2013 and there were many \u2013 but it\u2019s hard to forget the failures. I regret 1) not being able to help all the children I wanted to help, and 2) my failure to reach all the students I should have been able to reach.\nMy biggest teaching frustration has been allowing myself to do things in the classroom which, while mandated by federal, state and/or local authorities, were things that I knew were not in the best interests of my students.\nWhere Are All the Failing Schools \u2013 August 2010\nThis quote refers to the PDK Poll of the Public\u2019s Attitude Toward the Public Schools. The most recent poll put the respondents who grade their school an A, B, or C, at 81%. Local schools continue to poll well, and even higher for those who know the schools best \u2013 parents of public school students.\nA majority of 82% of the respondents to the poll do NOT see their local schools as failing giving them a grade of A, B or C. 49% scored their local schools as an A or a B. In other words, the school we know best we score higher than the schools we don\u2019t know. We\u2019re very negative about the quality of schools nationwide. But if such a high percentage of people are giving their own schools average to above average ratings where are all the schools that are doing so poorly?\nTime For Some Therapy \u2013 March 2011\nWe\u2019ve become a nation of cruel, angry, screamers. The national discussion has become nothing less than a national tantrum.\nThere\u2019s no room for compromise\u2026no room for discussion. There\u2019s no time for sadness at the death of another human being. There\u2019s no place for cooperation\u2026no desire to work towards a common goal or define a common good.\nFind someone to blame. Lash out blindly.\nThis country needs some serious therapy.\nThe Status Quo Hasn\u2019t Changed \u2013 April 2011\nWhen the so-called reformers \u2014 the Gates\u2019s, the Broads, the Duncans \u2014 rail against the status quo they\u2019re referring to nothing that exists today. The real status quo is a killing curriculum based on mindless bubbles on a test. That\u2019s today\u2019s status quo\u2026and that\u2019s no way to educate children.\nOne Size Doesn\u2019t Fit All \u2013 March 2009\nFor the last three days, I have been administering the Indiana state standardized tests or ISTEP+ to students with learning disabilities. These tests are not valid for these students because they do not measure what they claim to measure.\nThe test maker, McGraw Hill, claims that the test shows what students have learned and provides diagnostic information for remediation.\nHowever, for these students the tests in their disability area are so difficult that they have 1) no hope of passing, 2) little chance of doing well enough to get a score that would provide anything more than a generalized list of their weak areas.\nStudents with learning disabilities are enrolled in special education because they are not able to perform at \u201cgrade level\u201d in their area of disability. The purpose of special education is to provide extra support for the students so that they will be able to learn as much as they are capable of.\nSimply put, the standardized tests that we are giving are not appropriate for all students. There is no one-size-fits-all curriculum or test.\nIt\u2019s Time For an Educated Secretary of Education \u2013 January 2010\nFor the last 34 years, I\u2019ve searched for ways to improve my teaching and for ways to reach hard to reach students. The challenge is always there and what we as teachers do affects the lives of children in ways we can\u2019t imagine. It\u2019s frustrating that the people who control what goes on in the public schools of America (in the form of standardized tests, funding, etc) don\u2019t have a clue. Am I self-righteous about my quest to improve my teaching? Yes\u2026of course I am. I have worked hard to learn what I have learned about education and children. To have a basketball player with a degree in Sociology, who NEVER ATTENDED OR WORKED IN A PUBLIC SCHOOL and who is NOT a teacher, lead the nation\u2019s public schools is, dare I say it, irresponsible on the part of the federal government.\nFollow the Money \u2013 March 2010\nWhen you scratch the surface of the current attacks on public education you\u2019ll find big corporations (e.g. Pearson, McGraw-Hill) and wealthy businessmen (e.g. Bill Gates, Eli Broad). There\u2019s money to be made in the new education industry \u2013 charters and private schools, vouchers programs, and the re-segregating of the American public school system.\nPoverty is still the main issue that WE as teachers have to deal with nationwide.\nRead Aloud to Your Students Every Day \u2013 April 2010\nIf you don\u2019t read aloud to your students EVERY DAY you\u2019re not doing enough. Every elementary teacher\u2026no matter what grade\u2026should read aloud to his/her students each day. See Jim Trelease\u2019s Web Site and the Read-Aloud Handbook.\nDue Process: Not Anymore \u2013 May 2010\nIn 2011 the Indiana General Assembly removed due process which gave teachers some job protection.\nThere\u2019s no doubt that there are inadequate teachers in our schools\u2026and there\u2019s no doubt that teacher\u2019s unions protect their members (which is what unions are supposed to do). However, in Indiana, at least, unions can only guarantee that teachers receive due process. It\u2019s the responsibility of the school leaders, the administrators and school board, to prove just cause that a teacher is incompetent. Believe it or not, teachers unions do not want bad teachers teaching. Tenure in Indiana means that a teacher has to have a hearing in which their inadequacies are proven\u2026they get their day in court to defend themselves against the accusations of those who would fire them. A fair hearing\u2026day in court\u2026confronting the accusers\u2026that\u2019s how we do things in the US.\n\ud83d\udcdd\ud83d\udcda\ud83d\udcdd\nComments Off on Just in Case Someone\u2019s Listening\nFiled under Due Process, PDK, Personal History, poverty, Public Ed, read-alouds, Teaching Career, Testing, US DOE\nPolis: No Privatization, Except for Public Schools\nMillionaire U.S. Representative Jared Polis (D-Colorado), is running for Colorado Governor. He\u2019s concerned about the privatization of public land\u2026\nPolis: I\u2019ll be a governor for all\n\u201cOne of the biggest potential risks to western Colorado is the privatization of public lands,\u201d Polis said. \u201cOnce our public lands are carved up, there\u2019s no going back to our heritage and our way of life in western Colorado.\u201d\nPolis, a former member of Colorado\u2019s state board of education, isn\u2019t so worried about the privatization of public education. His private foundation supports the expansion of charter schools.\nThe Jared Polis Foundation supports the New America Schools and the Academy of Urban Learning through providing monetary grants and technical assistance. The foundation believes strongly in the schools\u2019 missions and the students the schools are serving.\nThe New America Schools and the Academy of Urban Learning are charter schools\u2014they are public high schools that receive public funding and adhere to state academic standards.\nHere is yet another politician who doesn\u2019t understand that public schools are just as much a part of America\u2019s infrastructure as any other public good. And, no Rep. Polis, charter schools are not public schools. They are private schools that take taxpayer dollars and skim students from real public schools.\nComments Off on Polis: No Privatization, Except for Public Schools\nFiled under Charters, Colorado, Politicians, Privatization",

Others have said they are so \u201chungry for victory\u201d that they haven\u2019t eaten for days.\n\u201cI bet they would give their souls for a silver medal or a few calories,\u201d said Tirico. \u201cI just hope they don\u2019t get too greedy or they\u2019ll get fed to Kim Jong-un like the 2010 team.\u201d\nMany view this as an opportunity for peaceful dialogue between North and South. However, others fear North Korea\u2019s participation may violate international sanctions.\n\u201cI, for one, don\u2019t even think they deserve to eat bronze,\u201d tweeted President Donald Trump. \u201cLet \u2019em starve.

        "raw_content": "MODELS OF INDIVIDUAL AND COMBINED MANUAL MATERIALS HANDLING TASKS.\nSALEM MOHAMED. TABOUN, University of Windsor\nMost manual materials handling (MMH) studies are concerned only with the individual tasks, i.e. lifting, lowering, pushing, pulling, carrying or holding. The combination of two or more individual tasks and intermittent carrying tasks has never been examined physiologically and psychophysically using the same subjects. The combined tasks of MMH are prevalent in many industrial places and in our daily life. The objectives of this study were: (1) To examine the effects of several task variables on oxygen consumption, heart rate, and mechanical work rate for the individual carrying tasks as well as the metabolic and psychophysical responses for the individual and combined tasks. (2) To develop prediction models for both individual and combined tasks of MMH. Ten physically fit male subjects participated in this investigation. Their age and body weight were 24.1 (+OR-) 3.35 years and 78.43 (+OR-) 5.77 kg respectively. Several isometric strengths were determined. Response surface design was used along with the following: weight of load (8, 13, 18, 23, and 28 kg), frequency of handling (1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 times/min.), carrying distance (0, 3, 6, 9, and 12 m), box width (15, 25, 35, 45, and 55 cm), and height range of life (0, floor - 75 cm, 75 - 150 cm, and floor - 150 cm). With the exception of box width all main effects of task related variables were significant (p < 0.01) using metabolic, mechanical work rate, and efficiency measures for the individual carrying tasks; however, all main effects were significant (p < 0.01) using both physiological and psychophysical measures for the combined lifting and carrying tasks. The combined lifting and carrying tasks resulted in higher metabolic energy expenditure; subjects were willing to handle lower loads as compared to the individual activities. The use of mechanical efficiency and the response surface design yielded a response surface which can be maximized to obtain the optimal level of each task variable. An efficiency model was developed for the individual carrying tasks. Energy costs and capacity models were also developed for both individual and combined lifting and carrying tasks. All models were validated against data from other subjects.Dept. of Industrial and Manufacturing Systems Engineering.

Roycroft, Jr.\nFiling a Mesothelioma Lawsuit\nTo start the process of seeking compensation for a mesothelioma client, ELSM begins with a brief introductory meeting. During this meeting, an attorney from ELSM will outline the various steps of the legal process; address any questions or concerns you may have related to the legal process; and discuss the ways in which a mesothelioma client has been exposed to asbestos.\nAfter this introductory meeting, ELSM will work on your behalf to collect all diagnosing medical reports from the medical facilities where you were treated. Before a mesothelioma lawsuit is filed, ELSM performs a thorough work history investigation of the diagnosed party. ELSM will collect work history records, including, union records, military service records, and other documents to substantiate employment history. In addition to interviewing the mesothelioma client, ELSM will also identify any potential family members, co-workers, and other product identification witnesses who can assist in providing details about the work history and potential asbestos exposure in the case.\nAfter we have completed a thorough product identification and work history investigation, our next step is to identify potential recoveries through asbestos trusts. A number of companies have admitted past asbestos liability and have set up asbestos trusts to compensate mesothelioma clients who present qualifying claims. ELSM is familiar with these asbestos trusts and their requirements for successful claims submission. For the most part, compensation through these trusts happens relatively quickly assuming your particular case meets each trust\u2019s exposure criteria.\nAfter your case has been evaluated for recovery through the asbestos trusts, ELSM then begins investigation of your case against viable companies who have yet to fully admit their asbestos liability. After an investigation period of about 30 to 60 days, ELSM will determine the proper venue to file the legal action. Venue selection is extremely important and is determined based on a number of factors including: a thorough understanding of scheduling, process time-frame, settlement history, and local laws. ELSM can file a lawsuit in any forum where a mesothelioma client has resided, worked, or served in the military. ELSM can also file your lawsuit in \u201copen forum\u201d states that are agreeable to allowing non-resident / non-exposure claimants to file.\nAs soon as the proper forum is determined, ELSM will file a formal Complaint on behalf of the mesothelioma client. The Complaint will typically assert various legal causes of action against the asbestos companies likely responsible for causing or contributing to a mesothelioma client\u2019s diagnosis. The number of asbestos companies or defendants named in the Complaint will vary based on the specific type and amount of exposure a mesothelioma client may have had during his/her lifetime.\nAfter filing the Complaint, the Discovery phase commences and usually lasts 3 to 4 months. Discovery allows ELSM to present information to the Defendant asbestos companies which document where, when, and how the mesothelioma client was exposed to particular asbestos products. ELSM can present this information via written documents (interrogatories) and/or oral testimony (deposition) to the Defendant asbestos companies. The Defendant asbestos companies will also be entitled to present information and/or documentation to your attorney during this period. ELSM will also file appropriate motions in Court during the Discovery phase on the mesothelioma client\u2019s behalf. Additionally, ELSM will likely try to reach some financial settlement(s) during the Discovery phase.\nMost mesothelioma lawsuits will not end up going to trial, but rather will resolve in settlements well in advance of the trial date. Throughout the entire process, ELSM will discuss the strengths and weaknesses of seeking trial resolution vs. settlement with the mesothelioma client. ELSM values continued client input and respects the client\u2019s right to decide what may be in his/her best legal interests. Should a matter proceed to trial with your approval, ELSM is experienced, qualified, and prepared to do so.\nMeet Our Welcome Team\nWe are eager to serve you. ELSM\u2019s initial consultations are 100% free of charge and, since ELSM works on a contingency basis, you will NEVER be charged anything out of your own pocket. ELSM only gets paid if it makes a recovery on your behalf.\nAnnette Charlevois\nYour first contact with the firm will usually be with Annette Charlevois or Kim McDonald. They are experienced, knowledgeable, and compassionate asbestos paralegals who have dedicated their lives to helping mesothelioma clients. They will listen to your individual situation and, together with you, decide on the next best course of action. Often a conference call or an in-home visit with one of our lawyers is arranged at your convenience. Click on the links above to learn more about Annette and Kim.\nDon\u2019t Lose Your Rights to File a Mesothelioma Claim\nEach state has its own deadlines, called statutes of limitations, which allow victims of mesothelioma to file lawsuits. Don\u2019t wait until it is too late to protect your rights! Request a Free Evaluation now if you or someone you love has been diagnosed with mesothelioma. The evaluation will cost you nothing.

        "title": "A proven doctrine of acquiring perfection \u2013 The School of Mary",
        "raw_content": "The full vision of the School of Mary\nSometimes, when the Church authorities meet a Founder, who from day one, has the full picture of his foundation, they feel uncomfortable, because they are convinced that the normal way God uses is a steady process unfolding year by year, step by step, to clarify the Call and its implementation. The Mission God handles the Founder develops through time and this becomes clearer day by day, with \u201cgrace upon grace\u201d.\nWell today is not actually day one in the life of the School of Mary\u2026 many years have passed now (1984, 1992, 2003,\u2026 2014), and one can re-state now what is the full vision, the way to implement it now and in the future.\nThe Meaning and Place of the Call for Holiness\nIn a traditional way, the Church deeply believes that the monastic and religious Orders in the Church are provided by God with means, wisdom, teaching, formation capacity, discernment to lead their members, in a secure masterful way, to the fullness of their vocation: Holiness (i.e. Union with Christ and the Perfection of Love): \u201cThese religious families give their members the support of [\u2026] a proven doctrine of acquiring perfection.\u201d (Vat II, Lumen Gentium, 43)\nMonks and religious are persons who received a call to follow Jesus more closely. That call, with the passing of centuries, developed various forms of life and rules, but the core of it remains: a call for Holiness. Does this \u201cpersonal Call\u201d from Jesus constitute something different from Baptism? Is it for \u201cspecial people\u201d chosen from the \u201cdoomed crowd\u201d? Thank God no, thank God Theology and the Council of Vatican II helps us remember that this call is for all (could happen to any person) and that it proceeds from Baptism, like in a renewed depth of it, a blossoming aspect of it.\nBut it is still a \u201cCall\u201d, i.e. a very personal initiative (in time and place) from Jesus to a specific person. It is not suspended in mid air for everybody. There is a moment in the life of every human being where Jesus comes, and knocks in a more audible way at the door of his/her heart. So, in the end, \u201ca call is a call\u201d.\nThe Church knows very well that the initial formation before baptism and after baptism doesn\u2019t deal directly with the elements of the Ways to Reach Perfection but with the foundations of Christian faith and Christian prayer. The Church knows the difference between, on one hand that first grace of Baptism and all the formation that comes with it (before and after), and on the other hand that \u201cCall within the Call\u201d, that \u201csecond conversion\u201d i.e. hearing Jesus calling me personally to follow him.\nIt is not another baptism, it is not another vocation, it is a deepening of the same vocation, of Baptism. Just as when the human being starts to enter into adolescence. One\u2019s peaceful life changes, and one notices blossoming in him new things/capacities/horizons and one has to learn to deal with them.\nThe first stage (Baptismal formation and normal catechesis) can last for years, and its central place remains the Parish. The second stage, happens when Jesus freely and personally comes and knocks at the door of our heart. It is a call like the Call St Anthony received one day in his parish, to leave it and go to the Desert and start to be trained as a Monk, as a researcher of God, a man that incarnates the \u201cQuest for God alone\u201d.\nThe Priestly Branch of the Church is the Parish and the Prophetical one is the Desert. The \u201cQuest of the Desert\u201d will take shape in a hermitage, a monastery, a convent, a consecration in the world, and more recently a movement in the Church.\nWe shouldn\u2019t forget that it is not the habit that makes the monk, not the consecration that makes him a monk, and not just even following a certain Rule or Style of Life (Horarium). What makes a monk a monk, or what makes a human being enter into the state of the \u201cQuest for God alone\u201d is the formation he or she receives, that secure and masterful Wisdom, Discernment and Teaching one receives.\nThe Call is Universal\nToday the emphasis is put in a renewed way on the Call for Holiness. This is a grace for the entire church to rediscover that call and that that call is for all. But the inner journey is, in its main components, the same. Why? Because we are all human beings and we all need to be purified, transformed, and become Jesus\u2019 friends. We shouldn\u2019t forget that in order to fulfil that call (providing we have heard it), we need to receive that combined Wisdom, Discernment and Teaching that God deposited in the Church, in order to reach that goal: Holiness (Union with Jesus and Fullness of Love).\nWe need to stop dreaming and imagining that it is just by praying a little bit and fasting that we will become saints. We need to stop dreaming that the Sacraments will operate anyway, if we just do that. This is against the Tradition and the experience of the Church.\nThe School of Mary received the Mission to open the treasures of Wisdom, Discernment and Teaching that are enclosed in the Prophetical branch of the Church to all the persons who feel they have received the Call to follow Jesus more closely. Nothing more, and nothing less. It is in a way like opening the Novitiate Room to all the persons in the world who feel Jesus\u2019 Call.\n\u2013 Now, who you are when you are in the Novitiate Room? What do you need then? What do you also deserve to receive from God, through the Church? What will happen to you?\n\u2013 You are a person who felt Jesus\u2019 call to follow him more closely and reach the fullness of Him.\nYou need to receive the necessary formation, throughout your journey of growth, in order to reach the Goal.\nYou deserve to receive all the Treasures that Jesus deposited in the Prophetical branch of the Church. They are yours as well\u2026 because you received the same call as others: the Quest for God alone.\nIf you start to apply that wisdom, discernment, teaching, you will start to receive \u201cgrace after grace\u201d and you will start to be purified and transformed in Jesus. You will learn new things, new ways of prayer, deepening your ways of prayer, which will boost your growth. Therefore you will need guidance and new food (teaching).\nThis is what the School of Mary humbly wants to offer\nThe Spiritual Journey has been divided into three parts, that follow three different curves/stages in spiritual life. The different \u201cchunks\u201d are not equal in length (of time), but they are equal in importance.\nThe first stage lays the foundations of a solid \u201ctake off\u201d of Spiritual Life. One learns how to walk, run, jump, with two legs: Lectio Divina and Prayer of the Heart (extension of the reception of the Word of God in the Mass and of his Body and Blood).\nThe Second stage goes into the deep purification that God wants to realise in us.\nThe Third stage shows us how the Apostle is sent on a mission, Jesus living in him, and he himself completing in his flesh what is lacking in Jesus\u2019 Passion for the world.",

        "raw_content": "How to Use a Binomial Table\nHow to Calculate Probability and Normal Distribution\nBy Jenna Meeks; Updated March 13, 2018\nbe_low/iStock/GettyImages\nCalculating probability with percentages is a common topic learned in the K-12 years and is useful throughout your life. You will often hear statements like \"You have a 50 percent chance of winning\" or \"35 percent of drivers have beverages in their hands.\" Understanding how to calculate these percentages with real numbers of people and things will help you understand probabilities for the rest of your life.\nFinding the Probability Using a Percent\nBegin by changing the percent into a decimal by moving the percent's decimal to the left two places. Suppose you're given the following problem: Jimmy has a bag of marbles, and he has a 25 percent chance of picking a blue marble. Then he draws out one marble and returns it 12 times. You're asked how many times should he get a blue marble. In this example, 25 percent becomes 0.25.\nSecondly, look at the problem to find how many attempts were made at the event. In this case, Jimmy tried to grab a marble 12 times, so 12 attempts were made.\nThirdly, multiply the number of attempts by the percent probability in decimal form. The answer will be the number of times the event should occur. In the example, 12 x 0.25 = 3, so Jimmy should get a blue marble three out of the 12 times he tries to grab marbles from his bag.\nHow to Find the Percent Probability\nFirst, calculate the number of favorable outcomes in a common situation. For example, suppose you're given the following problem: \"Jessica has a standard deck of 52 cards. What is the probability that she will pick a diamond when she draws a card at random?\"\nTo write this probability as a percent, you first need to know the number of opportunities of the desired event occurring. In the example, there are 13 diamonds in the deck, so there are 13 chances for Jessica to draw out a diamond.\nSecondly, determine the total number of events possible or total number of choices for the outcome of the event. In this case, Jessica has 52 cards total, so there are 52 possible outcomes.\nNow, divide the number of outcomes desired by the number of events possible. In this case, 13 divided by 52 = 0.25.\nFinally, take the answer you got and move the decimal point to the right two places or multiply the decimal by 100. Your answer will be the percent probability that the desired outcome will take place. For the example: 0.25 x 100 = 25, so Jessica has a 25 percent chance of picking a diamond at random.\nThe Math League: Percent and Probability\nJenna Meeks began writing professionally in the summer of 2009.

        "raw_content": "Hivos > Blogs > We need to safeguard biodiversity and promote diverse diets\nSeth Cook, May 23, 2018\nCoinciding with this year\u2019s International Day for Biodiversity, a new report from IIED and Hivos explores how we can reverse the alarming loss of biodiversity in agriculture and foster diverse diets.\nAgricultural biodiversity underpins diverse, nutritious diets \u2013 which are essential to human health. However, global shifts in food production and dietary patterns are threatening agricultural biodiversity.\nDiversity at risk\nAgricultural landscapes are becoming increasingly simplified as the number of crops and crop varieties grown on farms diminishes. Declining diversity on the land coincides with increasing homogenisation of diets. Today 30 crops supply 95 per cent of the calories that people obtain from food, and only four crops \u2013 maize, rice, wheat and potatoes \u2013 supply over 60 per cent (PDF).\nThis unprecedented and growing reliance on an increasingly narrow range of crops, crop varieties and animal breeds bring long-term risks for biodiversity. It also undermines the ability of agriculture to adapt to climate change, because many local crop varieties and animal breeds are more resilient than the modern ones that are replacing them.\nThe food paradox: calories aplenty but diets remain poor for many\nMore than enough food is produced globally to provide sufficient calories for every person on the planet. Yet at least three billion people have low quality diets which either lack sufficient calories, vitamins and minerals or contain too many energy-dense, nutrient-poor foods that are high in sugar, salt and fat.\nHow can we address the problems of low quality diets and agrobiodiversity loss? To coincide with this year\u2019s International Day for Biodiversity, a new IIED and Hivos paper explores the connection between agricultural biodiversity and diverse, high quality diets, why they are both at risk and what can be done to foster them, particularly in developing countries.\nDoes diversity on the farm lead to diversity on the plate?\nOne key question is whether diverse farms lead to diverse, healthy diets. For one farmer we interviewed in Zambia the links were clear: \u201cwhen you have a variety of crops in the field (and foods on the table), it means you are preventing some diseases in your body. It helps body building. So it will help your family.\u201d\nSubstantial evidence from academic literature suggests diverse agricultural production contributes to dietary diversity in farm households in developing countries. However, this relationship is complex and is mitigated by markets and other factors such as gender and control over resources, wealth, cultural values and the existing degree of on-farm diversity.\nWhile diverse production systems should be encouraged \u2013 both for reasons of sustainability and dietary quality \u2013 other factors must be considered to ensure diverse and healthy food consumption. One cannot assume that diverse agricultural production automatically leads to diverse consumption. For instance, farmers may be growing a variety of crops but selling most of them to meet urgent needs for cash, as is the case with some farmers in Fort Portal, Uganda.\nHow women can foster diversity ? on the plate, and on the land\nWomen produce, purchase and prepare food, and their food choices influence the diversity of diets of their families and in turn can determine which crops are grown to feed their communities.\nA review (PDF) of 15 different studies found stronger links between agricultural biodiversity and dietary diversity in female-headed households than those headed by males. A study in Nepal found that when women had greater autonomy in production and working hours, maternal and children\u2019s dietary diversity improved.\nThere is also evidence that when women have control over resources such as land and money, it leads to greater allocations of household resources for food. Empowering women is clearly key. In Indonesia, IIED and Hivos are working with the grassroots organisation Tanoker, which is promoting diverse, healthy diets among local communities in Jember Regency. Tanoker is running informal training programmes to empower mothers and improve their knowledge of nutrition. Food diaries \u2013 where participants record the foods they eat for a seven-day period \u2013 are being used to map dietary patterns in the region.\nReviving and maintaining diversity on the farm and on the plate requires action on multiple fronts and at multiple scales. At a macro level, promoting diversity calls for a shift from industrial agriculture \u2013 increasingly characterised by monocultures and a small number of crops, crop varieties and animal breeds \u2013 to diversified sustainable farming systems.\nAt a national and local scale, government, civil society and the private sector need to work together to raise awareness and stimulate demand for diverse, healthy foods, to rebuild and expand the markets that support diverse crops and animal products. Meanwhile, policies, subsidies, research and extension programmes need to be aligned to support diverse food production and consumption.\nFinally, we need to protect and strengthen the knowledge and cultural practices that support diverse food systems, which are also under threat worldwide. Inclusive governance models and multi-stakeholder approaches can help to achieve all of these ends, particularly when they use and build upon citizen\u2019s knowledge and practices to re-shape food systems.\nThe Sustainable Diets for All programme is working to help low-income communities in Bolivia, Indonesia, Uganda and Zambia improve their access to diverse, high quality, sustainable food. This five-year (2016\u201320) programme is coordinated by Hivos, the International Institute for the Environment and Development (IIED), and partners in the focal countries.",

        "raw_content": "Escape Room is a horror film about six people who each get a mysterious box, inviting them to an escape room to win $10,000. They soon realize that it isn\u2019t just a game, it\u2019s a deadly fight to be the last one alive. It came out in January 2019 and is rated PG-13.\nI think Escape Room is one of the most disturbing movies I\u2019ve ever seen. In fact, there were a few times when I almost left the theater because it was too much for me. What forced me to stay in the theater was the clever plot and the great special effects. I liked that there wasn\u2019t much blood and gore, considering the fact that I almost threw up without it. I found it weird that it got certified rotten by Rotten Tomatoes, even though most people liked it.\nThe best part about this movie was the actors and actresses that played their role almost perfectly. It had Nik Dodani and Logan Miller in it, who are two of my favorite actors.There were all different types of people in the movie: the wannabe, the gamer geek, the hopeless, the optimistic, the shy girl, and of course, the determined. There were all different types of people, which made this more interesting because we got to see all different personality types.\nOverall, I\u2019d say that this movie is very unique, and it has a creepy concept that I\u2019ve never seen before. I would recommend this to someone who is looking for a good scare. Just make sure to watch it on an empty stomach.",

        "raw_content": "MySQL is among the most popular database control systems in existence. A database is a collection of cells with info which are arranged in tables and the management system is the software that links the data to a script app. As an illustration, a forum stores all usernames, avatars, posts and so on inside a database and every time a site visitor opens a particular thread, the forum script connects to the database and \u201ccalls\u201d the content that should be accessible on a particular page. MySQL is very popular because of its great functionality, ease of use and the fact that it can work with a lot of popular scripting languages such as PHP, Python, Perl, and so on. All dynamic Internet sites that are designed with a script-driven app require some kind of database and some of the most popular ones like Joomla\u2122, Moodle, Mambo and WordPress use MySQL.\nYou'll be able to use script-driven platforms that require a MySQL database with any of the website hosting which we offer. You can easily set up a whole new database through the Hepsia hosting Control Panel and the amount of databases which you can have simultaneously is determined by the package that you select. We also provide you with advanced options to manage your databases, such as a one-click backup and remote access. With the latter option you will be able to employ software on your personal computer to connect to a database on our web hosting servers and manage it. For convenient administration from the CP we provide the highly effective phpMyAdmin software tool, that will permit you to change tables or cells and import or export whole databases using a web interface. If you employ our 1-click script installer, our system will create a completely new database and link it to the application you have selected automatically, so all you'll have to do to get a script-driven site shall be to click on the Install button.\nYou shall be able to use any script that requires MySQL with all of our semi-dedicated servers since we have the most current version installed on all servers - MySQL 5. Via our in-house built Hepsia website hosting CP, you'll be able to easily set up or remove a database, modify its password, back it up with just a single click or check the hourly and daily access stats for it. If you want to manage the content of a database directly, not through a script, you'll have two options - either using the web interface of the phpMyAdmin tool, that is available inside the CP, or using an application installed on your personal computer given that we support remote database access. For the aforementioned option, you will need to add your IP address via the hosting account first as an extra level of safety against unauthorized access to your information.",

        "raw_content": "San Diego acts fast to keep the lights on at Illumina.\nThe San Diego area is home to some 1,500 employees of Illumina, which is the city\u2019s 12th largest sales/use taxpayer.\nPhoto courtesy of Illumina\nIllumina, a developer and manufacturer of instruments used to sequence human genomes, was recently named \"World's Smartest Company\" by the MIT Technology Review, ahead of fellow California innovators Tesla Motors and Google, among others. Losing the company to another jurisdiction would be \u2026 well \u2026 not so smart.\nOn Tuesday this week, San Diego Mayor Kevin L. Faulconer joined Illumina Inc. CEO Jay Flatley to announce an agreement that will keep the medical device company and its approximately 300 \"middle-class manufacturing\" jobs in San Diego. The City will provide a tax rebate in exchange for Illumina retaining the manufacturing jobs in San Diego, pending a city council vote scheduled for next week to ratify the agreement.\n\"We're excited to continue to grow a state-of-the-art campus that will not only contribute to Illumina's success, but also contribute to the growth of San Diego's life sciences community, to the advancement of genetic research, and ultimately to help people around the globe realize the benefits of personalized medicine,\" said Jay Flatley, Illumina's CEO.\nIllumina, founded in San Diego in 1998, has over 1,500 employees within San Diego and is the city's most highly valued biotech company, with its world headquarters, product development, sales, shipping, receiving and manufacturing all based in San Diego. The company is the City's 12th largest sales/use taxpayer \u2014 approximately $1.3 million annually in the most recent year. Illumina's other primary manufacturing locations include Hayward, Calif., and an off-shore location in Singapore. The company leases 6 buildings in San Diego totaling over 560,000 sq. ft. (52,024 sq. m.).\nIllumina CEO Jay Flatley\nIllumina also recently entered into a 10-year, 97,700-sq.-ft. (9,076-sq.-m.) lease agreement with Alexandria Real Estate Equities in San Francisco's popular Mission Bay district. That's where the company in February announced the launch of the Illumina Accelerator Program, the world's first business accelerator focused solely on creating an innovation ecosystem for the genomics industry. Its goal is to speed the time to market and lower the barriers to entry for entrepreneurs, start-ups and early stage companies working on scientifically and commercially promising next-generation sequencing (NGS) applications.\nThrough the accelerator's six-month program, Illumina will provide invited participants with technology and business guidance and $100,000 in support, including access to sequencing systems and reagents, as well as fully operational lab space in close proximity to the company's planned R&D facilities in San Francisco's Mission Bay. Initial partners include prominent technology investor Yuri Milner, who will offer each participating company $100,000 in exchange for convertible notes, and Silicon Valley Bank, which intends to provide banking services and credit to each participating company.\nEarlier this year, San Diego realized it needed its own innovation ecosystem, and needed it fast \u2014 something like a 3-D printing lab for policy.\nJust as Faulconer was taking office this spring, Illumina was considering a variety of options to expand its manufacturing operations, including locations outside the city and state. Almis Udrys, director of performance and analytics for Mayor Faulconer's office, says the team at San Diego Regional Economic Development Corp. gave the mayor's office the heads up.\n\"As soon as we got that call,\" says Udrys, \"the mayor said, 'I have to get out there and meet these people.' We effectively dropped everything and went to talk to them.\"\nFor the next three months Udrys was the point man in drawing up an incentives agreement primarily focused on retaining manufacturing jobs in the city. Manufacturing is one of four base-sector economic engines in San Diego, along with defense, tourism and international trade and logistics. The San Diego Regional Economic Development Corporation worked with the city to verify that Illumina was evaluating manufacturing leases in San Diego, Poway and Memphis, Tenn.\n\"We haven't engaged in this type of agreement for many years,\" says Udrys, \"so this was a newer animal to develop. I'm pretty proud of how quickly we were able to do it. If we had more experience, we might have been able to go even faster. I hope this is a model we can replicate in the future with others.\"\nAmong the terms of the 10-year Economic Development Incentive Agreement, Illumina is eligible to apply increased sales and use tax revenue it generates over the course of the agreement toward a $1.5 million tax rebate from the City, which it would receive after the City verifies the new revenue. The City will retain 30 percent of Illumina's sales tax revenues in addition to the current level of sales and use tax generated by Illumina. After the $1.5-million tax rebate cap has been reached or the term of the 10-year agreement ends, the City will return to receiving 100 percent of Illumina's tax revenue.\nIn exchange, Illumina will retain all of its existing manufacturing jobs and sales force within San Diego, at any site of its choice, during the 10-year term of the agreement.\n\"This is a perfect example of how San Diego can support middle-class jobs while also encouraging economic growth,\" said Mayor Faulconer. \"This agreement keeps hundreds of high-wage jobs in San Diego, ensures city residents benefit from over a million dollars in annual sales tax revenue, and strengthens our region's leadership in biotechnology.\"\n'Lifeblood'\n\"Not only do we have a Mayor that values economic development and job creation,\" said Mark Cafferty, president and CEO of San Diego Regional EDC, \"but we also have a cutting-edge company showing how much they value San Diego's dynamic workforce, manufacturing expertise and research capabilities.\"\n\"Illumina's announcement that they are expanding in San Diego demonstrates the ability of California cities to develop creative solutions and encourage manufacturing investment,\" said Kish Rajan, director of the Governor's Office of Business and Economic Development (GO-Biz).\nSan Diego Mayor Kevin Faulconer\nPhoto courtesy of the Mayor's Office\nThe timing couldn't be better, coming off the city's universally praised hosting of the huge BIO Convention in June. Rajan calls the momentum since the event \"fabulous,\" and was especially impressed by the level of international interest in his state, including specific inquiries from delegations hailing from Australia and Northern Ireland. He also noted repeated inquiries about linking to the state's renowned higher education system.\n\"I get that a lot, not just at the BIO conference,\" he says. \"The interest in connecting at the academic and R&D level is very high.\"\nCalifornia's interest in developing incentives at the state level has heretofore been very low. But it does have its California Competes tax credit program, as well as a new exemption, effective July 1, from the state's 4.19-percent sales tax for all biotech R&D equipment purchases. Rajan says the new application window for a total of $150 million in available business tax credits has not yet been officially opened.\n\"Once we open up the new application window for this new fiscal year, of course they would be eligible to apply,\" he says. \"We certainly had those discussions with them, so they were aware of that program and other state programs they could potentially avail themselves of.\" Rajan says while no specific program or commitment came from the state in this instance, he thinks the greater awareness of the range of state programs that do exist, combined with what the city put together, \"helped change the equation.\"\nWhile state incentives were certainly a part of the picture, Udrys says \"it's been a difficult slog in San Diego and generally in California\" when it comes to economic development, because of the regulatory and cost challenges many companies face.\n\"We quickly realized the city has to take matters into its own hands and do something above and beyond what's available at the state level,\" says Udrys. \"We wanted to give them reasons to stay in San Diego versus any other place in the state, nation or world.\"\nUdrys says the decision hinged on that incentives agreement and the good-faith effort demonstrated by the city's team. \"Admittedly, $1.5 million over a potentially 10-year term is not like you're selling the farm. But it is a significant indication, particularly given that we haven't done something like this for quite a while.\n\"Before the mayor stepped in,\" says Udrys, \"they weren't certain how much the city was interested in their presence. The government does a lot of stuff, so sometimes you forget about the people propping you up and keeping you going.

        "title": "5 Lessons From Iceland and the Perils of Overtourism \u2013 Skift",
        "raw_content": "5 Lessons From Iceland and the Perils of Overtourism\nTourism can be a great economic driver, but massive growth isn\u2019t always sustainable. Iceland now grapples what we call overtourism and has some serious planning to do for the future.\nWe looked at Iceland for a recent episode of the Skift Podcast, in which we explored how Iceland became a hot tourist spot, the tiny country\u2019s complicated relationship with its visitors, and how the problems of overtourism can be solved. Read our 12,000-word deep dive here.\nOur guest was Skift reporter Andrew Sheivachman joined by Skift podcast host Hannah Sampson. The episode includes audio recordings from Andrew\u2019s interviews during his trip to Iceland, from which he wrote the deep dive.\nThe 2008 global recession played a major role in spurring Iceland\u2019s tourism boom.\nThe recession hit Iceland hard, causing its three largest banks to go under, which in turn made it a bargain destination. At the same time, Icelanders had less disposable income to travel and the airlines began to focus on international routes, bringing more foreign visitors in.\n\u201cTourism is the factor that got us out of the recession and placed us where we are now,\u201d said \u00d3l\u00f6f \u00ddrr Atlad\u00f3ttir, director general of the Icelandic Tourist Board. \u201cWe couldn\u2019t foresee this tremendous growth in interest for Iceland. That is also coupled with the fact that, in the last five years, the world has gone out of a recession. People are traveling more and more.\u201d\nThe tourism boom has remade the capital city of Reykjavik.\nBefore the boom, downtown Reykjavik bore little resemblance to the more modern city that exists now. Increased tourism kicked up the demand for Airbnb, carsharing, and other elements that tend to attract yet more visitors. Now, the demand is outpacing the supply.\n\u201cThere is a massive shortage of housing, There is massive shortage of hotels,\u201d said S\u00f6lvi Melax, founder of Icelandic car share startup Cario. \u201cRenting long-term is getting more and more expensive. And that\u2019s because people are going [with] short-term rentals.\u201d\nIcelanders are wondering who benefits from increased tourism.\nSome Icelanders worry that only the top executives benefit from tourism, while the locals bear the difficulties.\n\u201cWe are just realizing what tourism is. It\u2019s a totally different industry from all others,\u201d said Atlad\u00f3ttir, comparing tourism to fishing, the country\u2019s former top industry. \u201cYou can go out and fish, and you go and get your fish, and then come back. There\u2019s somebody in the factory that prepares it, and then it\u2019s sold. That, of course, is a tremendous economic impact, but then everybody goes home. The fish aren\u2019t bothering you out in the streets asking where the restaurants are, and aren\u2019t using your buses or utilizing a lot of the public goods. They aren\u2019t sitting in your swimming pools.\u201d\nIceland needs to reevaluate its infrastructure and related governmental policies.\nOfficials are wondering how much more traffic Iceland\u2019s aviation and hospitality sectors can handle with its current infrastructure.

His versatile skiing background has never been equaled by anyone.\nSverre Engen was among the last of a colorful generation of Norwegian immigrants to the United States who were deeply enshrined in the romantic history of skiing of their adopted country. For over four decades they gained stature to be among the permanent members of the U.S. National Ski Hall of Fame.\nSverre was born in Mjondalen, Norway and won his first ski trophy in 1917 (age of 6). At 14 years of age he developed a yen to come to America, as his brother, Alf, did. However, he had to wait until 1929 to get his visa, then was able to join his brother. He worked diligently to gain his final citizenship papers in 1936.\nAlthough skiing had been Sverre\u2019s way of life in Norway, he did not expect to continue this kind of career in America. Fate ruled otherwise. Responding to the irresistible call of the slopes and the companionship of his buddies, he entered the jumping competitions that were just getting under way in the United States, to the thrill and applause of thousands of enthusiastic fans of this new American sport.\nDuring his first winter in this country Sverre won both the Class \u201cB\u201d Central Championship and the Tournament in Chicago and placed third in National jumping in Canton, North Dakota. As a member if the professional group, Sverre was without a doubt one of the top competitors in the years that followed, usually finishing at or near the top. His most cherished cup was the Norge Ski Club medal which he won in 1937 for taking first place in Class \u201cA\u201d.\nIn 1937, he also purchased and developed Snow Valley in the San Bernardino Mountains of Southern California. He operated this resort, the newest and most popular of the region, for three years. Snow Valley grew by leaps and bounds under his skillful direction. He then sold out to a large Hollywood developer and returned to Salt Lake City, Utah, his home since coming to America.\nHe served in the Norwegian Battalion of the 10th Mountain Division during World War II. Afterward, he was approved to teach professional ski instructors under the G.I. Bill. Among his students were some of the early top ski instructors.\nSverre Engen was elected to the U.S. National Ski Hall of Fame in 1971.\nIf you notice any errors or inconsistencies in Sverre Engen's bio, click here to let us know.",

        "raw_content": "The difficulties and opportunities of Social media websites\nCollaborative projects Collaborative projects enable the joint and simultaneous creation of content by a lot of end-users and so are, o...\nCollaborative projects enable the joint and simultaneous creation of content by a lot of end-users and so are, on this sense, one of the most democratic manifestation of UGC. Within collaborative projects, one differentiates between wikis that is, websites which permit users to incorporate, remove, and alter text-based content and social bookmark creating applications which encourage the group-based collection and rating of Internet links or media content. Exemplary applications on this category include the online encyclopaedia Wikipedia, a wiki available today in than 230 different languages, as well as the social bookmarking web service Delicious, which allows the storage and sharing of web bookmarks. The principle idea underlying collaborative projects is the joint effort of numerous actors\u2019 creates a better outcome than any actor could achieve individually; that is like the efficient-market hypothesis in behavioral finance. From the corporate perspective, firms should be aware that collaborative projects are trending toward becoming the primary source of information for a lot of consumers. Therefore, while not everything written on Wikipedia could actually be true, it really is thought to be true by increasingly more Online users. This may be particularly crucial in regards to corporate crises. By way of example, when online book retailer Amazon started to test the thought of dynamic pricing, comments declaring this type of practice as unfair appeared instantaneously underneath the Wikipedia entry on \u2018\u2018time-based pricing.\u2019\u2019 Yet, collaborative projects in addition provide some unique opportunities for firms. Finnish handset manufacturer Nokia, as an example, uses internal wikis to update employees on project status and trade ideas, that happen to be employed by about 20% of the company's 68,000 employees. Likewise, American software applications company Adobe Systems looks after a set of bookmarks to company-related websites and conversations on Delicious.\nBlogs, which represent the primary form of Social media marketing, are special kinds of websites very often display date-stamped entries back chronological order. These are the Social networking same as personal webpages and can appear in a multitude of different variations, from personal diaries describing the author\u2019s life to summaries of most relevant information in a single specific content area. Blogs are often managed by a single person only, and still provide the potential of interaction web-sites with the addition of comments. This can historical roots, text-based blogs are nevertheless the most common. Nevertheless, blogs have started to take different media formats. As an example, San Francisco-based Justin.tv allows users to generate personalized television stations via that they can can broadcast images from other webcam in real time with users. Many companies already are using blogs to update employees, customers, and shareholders on developments they say is important. Jonathan Schwartz, CEO of Sun Microsystems, keeps a personal blog to further improve the transparency of his company; the same is true automotive giant General Motors. Yet, as they are true with collaborative projects, blogs do not come without risks. These generally contained in two fashions. First, customers who for just one reason and other turn into dissatisfied with or disappointed by the company\u2019s offerings should participate in virtual complaints as protest websites or blogs, which results in the production of potentially damaging information in online space. Second, once firms encourage employees to be active on blogs, they will often need to live with the results of personnel writing negatively concerning the firm. Microsoft\u2019s former \u2018\u2018technical evangelist\u2019\u2019 Robert Scoble, by way of example, a tendency to fiercely criticize the merchandise of his employer before he made a decision to leave the Redmond-based software company in 2006.\nThe principle objective of content communities could be the sharing of media content between users. Content communities exist for a variety of different media types, including text (e.g., Book Crossing, via which 750,000+ people from over 130 countries share books), photos (e.g., Flickr), videos (e.g., YouTube), and PowerPoint presentations (e.g., Slideshare). Users on content communities are certainly not needed to develop a personal profile page; if they do, these pages usually only contain basic information, like the date they joined the community and also the variety of videos shared. From the corporate viewpoint, content communities carry the risk of used as platforms for the sharing of copyright protected materials. While major content communities have rules in position to ban and remove such illegal content, it is difficult to prevent popular videos for example recent episodes of comedy dramas being uploaded to YouTube only hours as soon as they are actually aired in the news. On the positive side, our prime popularity of content communities means they are an extremely attractive contact channel for several firms; this is an easy task to believe when one considers that YouTube serves over 100 million videos every day. In 2007, Procter & Gamble organized a tournament for its over-the-counter drug Pepto-Bismol, whereby users were inspired to upload to YouTube 1-minute videos of themselves singing about the ailments Pepto Bismol counteracts, including heartburn and nausea. In the similar spirit, washing machines manufacturer Blendtec came into common use for its bevy of cheap \u2018\u2018Will it blend?\u2019\u2019 videos, which has been watched by lots of people. Other firms, for example Cisco and Google, count on content communities to express recruiting videos, as well as keynote speeches and press announcements, with their employees and investors.\nSocial media sites are applications that enable users to connect by creating personal data profiles, inviting colleagues and friends to have access to those profiles, and sending e-mails and messages between each other. These personal profiles may include any sort of information, including photos, video, audio recordings, and blogs. According to Wikipedia, the biggest social networking sites are U.S. based Facebook (initially founded by Mark Zuckerberg to remain in touch regarding his fellow students from Harvard University) and MySpace (with 1,500 employees and most 250 million new registered users). Social networking sites are for these high popularity, specifically among younger Online users, that this term \u2018\u2018Facebook addict\u2019\u2019 has been within the Urban Dictionary, a collaborative project devoted to developing a slang dictionary for that English language. Several companies already are using social network sites to support the creation of brand communities and marketing research poor netnography. To promote the movie \u2018\u2018Fred Claus,\u2019\u2019 a 2007 Christmas comedy film, Warner Brothers developed a Facebook profile via which visitors could watch trailers, download graphics, and play games. Likewise, the Adidas custom soccer community on MySpace allows individuals to associate themselves with one of two brands of elite soccer cleats made by the German sports apparel manufacturer, and access testimonials and knowledge on professional soccer players who play using \u2018\u2018their\u2019\u2019 shoes. Some firms even go one step further and employ Facebook as a distribution channel. Consider U.S.-based florist 1-800-Flowers.com, which provides a widget on Facebook called \u2018\u2018Gimme Love\u2019\u2019 whereby users can send \u2018\u2018virtual bouquets\u2019\u2019 to friends or, using a click of the mouse, be directly transferred to the company\u2019s website to send real flowers.\nVirtual game worlds\nVirtual worlds are platforms that replicate a three dimensional environment where users can be shown in the form of personalized avatars and communicate with one another as they would in real life. In this sense, virtual worlds are probably the ultimate indication of Social Media, while they supply the highest amount of social presence and media richness coming from all applications discussed up to now. Virtual worlds come in two forms. The initial, virtual game worlds, require their users to behave according to strict rules negative credit a massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG). These applications have became popular in recent years, as standard game consoles including Microsoft\u2019s X-Box and Sony\u2019s Play Station are now allowing simultaneous play among a variety of users world wide. Samples of virtual game worlds include the cod-medieval \u2018\u2018World of Warcraft,\u2019\u2019 which counts around 8.5 million subscribers who explore the virtual planet of Azeroth by means of humans, dwarves, orcs, or night elves, to fight monsters or look for treasure; and Sony\u2019s EverQuest, through which 16 different races of players (e.g., wizards, clerics) travel the fantasy arena of Norrath. The policies of such games usually limit the quality of self-presentation and self-disclosure possible; although some people might users spend a lot time using these applications that their character whether it's a warrior, a wizard, or a dragon hunter sets out to more and more bear resemblance to their real world personality. Besides their use for ingame advertising (similar in idea to product placement in blockbuster movies), the high availability of virtual game worlds may also be leveraged in traditional communication campaigns. Japanese automotive giant Toyota, by way of example, used pictures and mechanics from the World of Warcraft application in the latest Tundra commercial to arrive at the two.5 million players inside U.S. alone.\nVirtual social worlds\nThe other number of virtual worlds, also known as virtual social worlds, allows inhabitants to pick their behavior more freely and essentially live a virtual life comparable to their true to life. As in virtual game worlds, virtual social world users can be found in the sort of avatars and interact in a three-dimensional virtual environment; however, on this realm, there aren't any rules restricting all the different possible interactions, with the exception of basic physical laws such as gravity. This enables on an unlimited variety of self-presentation strategies, and possesses been proven by investing in increasing usage intensity and consumption experience, users of virtual social worlds or \u2018\u2018residents,\u2019\u2019 while they choose to be called show behavior that more and more closely mirrors the main one seen in actual life settings. Arguably, one of the most prominent illustration of virtual social worlds could be the Second Life application, founded and managed with the San Francisco-based company Linden Research Inc. Besides doing precisely what is possible in real life (e.g., speaking to other avatars, taking a walk, experiencing and enjoying the virtual sunshine), Second Life also allows users to produce content (e.g., to create virtual clothing or furniture items) and to sell the information to others to acquire Linden Dollars, an online currency traded against the U.S. Dollar on the Second Life Exchange. Some residents are very successful within this task that this virtual money earned doing this complements their true to life income. Virtual social worlds give a plethora of opportunities for companies in marketing (advertising/communication, virtual product sales/v-Commerce, marketing research), and human resource and internal process management.\nThe Digital Media Strategy Blog: The difficulties and opportunities of Social media websites\nhttps://3.bp.blogspot.com/-YKqHeGcD6QY/UN4bqp4VjTI/AAAAAAAAABo/Y7jEztAWiRE/s1600/social-media-strategy-template.jpg\nhttps://3.bp.blogspot.com/-YKqHeGcD6QY/UN4bqp4VjTI/AAAAAAAAABo/Y7jEztAWiRE/s72-c/social-media-strategy-template.jpg\nhttps://social-media-strategy-template.blogspot.com/2012/12/the-difficulties-and-opportunities-of.html",

        "raw_content": "The evolving demands of the labour market, coupled with a policy push toward the creation of a \u2018Knowledge Economy\u2019, has led to the increasing expectation and prerequisite of a third level degree in the Irish jobs market. With the majority of Irish students pursuing a third level education on completion of second level, second level education itself has been moulded away from one that included both vocational and comprehensive strands, to one that can best be described as a pathway to further education rather than an end in itself.\nIt is therefore not surprising that Ireland boasts one of the highest rates of progression to third level education in Europe, with over 6% of the adult population enrolled in higher education at the present time. While the overall numbers are impressive, a less rosy picture emerges when one observes the geographic and socio-economic demarcations that emerge when one looks at those who progress to third level versus those who do not. These disparities are evident across the state, with Galway and Mayo exhibiting progression levels above the national average, while counties such as Donegal and Laois show the lowest progression rates by county. Even more striking than the national differences is the urban stratification of third level progression exhibited in Dublin, where socio-economically affluent regions such as Dublin 6 and Dublin 4 boast third level progression levels up to 99%, while more traditionally working class regions such as Dublin 17 exhibit progression levels of just 15%.\nThe map above is a geographic illustration of what statistical evidence has shown for decades \u2013 that third level uptake remains low among socio-economically disadvantaged communities, and reaches near universality among students from higher socio-economic backgrounds. French sociologist Raymond Boudon (1974) categorised class differentials in educational attainment into distinct \u2018primary\u2019 and \u2018secondary\u2019 effects. Primary effects are those differences that, for genetic or socio-cultural reasons, are expressed via the association between a student\u2019s class background and their level of academic performance. Secondary effects relate to the choices that children from different class backgrounds make, given the options their previous performance allows them to take (Jackson et al., 2007). Secondary effects seek to explain why, all things being equal, students from lower socio-economic classes are more likely to choose not to progress to third level education, while their counterpart with the same academic performance in second level education but from a higher socio-economic background will pursue third level education. While primary effects may to some extent explain the geographic differences observed in third level progression rates between regions such as Dublin 6 and Dublin 17, the scale of the difference and the 99% third level take up rate in Dublin 6 would also indicate that secondary effects has a major role in dictating progression rates, with the difference too large to be simply put down to cognitive ability (for more on the role of social class in Ireland dictating choices in education, see Smyth and Banks 2012 and Smyth 2017).\nMuch has and can be written on how secondary effects skew third level progression toward more affluent students \u2013 a subject for future articles. Yet this article\u2019s primary aim is not to explain the development of socio-economic divisions in third level progression rates, but rather question whether the current third level funding model is the most equitable and efficient use of public resources, given that the third level education system is still more likely to cater for those from more affluent backgrounds.\nPart of the philosophy behind abolishing third level fees in the first instance was to make further education more accessible to those from socio-economically disadvantaged backgrounds. Yet the abolishment of fees does not withdraw all of the significant costs associated with further education, be they direct such as transportation and accommodation costs or indirect such as earnings forgone, whose relative price is highest for those with the least finances. The cost of three to four years of full time education can make third level education too costly for individuals from socio-economically disadvantaged backgrounds to consider it to be a viable option, even where fees are waived. Indeed, while abolishing fees does not necessarily make further education more accessible to students of lesser means, there is evidence to suggest that the absence of fees and the revenue they provide can actually lock less affluent students out of further education. While Scotland has steadfastly maintained free fees in contrast to the rest of the UK, it now holds the greatest disparity in socio-economic class progression to third level in the UK. In order to fund free university places, other sacrifices have been needed such as cutting the maintenance grant available to poorer students, resulting in students from more socio-economically disadvantaged backgrounds graduating with larger debts than their more affluent peers.\nThe disproportionate negative effect free fees hold for poorer Scottish students is merely an illustration of a universal truth \u2013 that public subsidisation of non-compulsory further education benefits the upper and middle-classes at least as much as the poor, and indeed progression rates from second level to third level would appear to indicate that they benefit more than the poor (Goodin and Le Grand, 1987). Unless in the rare case that a commodity is consumed less as incomes rise, the better off are more likely to purchase more of a commodity as their incomes rise when compared to those with less buying power. Where these commodities are heavily subsidised by the public purse as in the case of tertiary education, the financially better off are therefore consuming more of the subsidy.\nThe lack of fee revenue entails that the majority of state funding for universities goes into covering fee costs, with result that universities are left chronically underfunded and unable to expand, leading to strict limits on the number of students universities are able to take. This increases competition for limited university places, having a disproportionately negative effect for students from less affluent backgrounds who are less likely to achieve the best secondary school results (on account of primary effects). This is indeed the case in Scotland, where increased competition for university places is leading to many students starting higher education in further education colleges instead, with 20.3% of Scottish students starting their higher education in a FE college in 2013/14 and 34.1% going straight to university, while the comparative English figures are 6% and 40.6% respectively. This competition for university places is further exacerbated by the need for universities to raise revenue by enrolling students who do pay fees (non-EU domiciled students and non-Scottish UK students) \u2013 something that is being done to the extent that Scottish students are now the minority in the four most prestigious \u2018ancient\u2019 universities of Aberdeen, St Andrews, Edinburgh and Glasgow.\nTwo of the concerns which should be to the forefront of policy makers future plans is to enable access to third level education to those with the least means, while at the same time maintaining high university standards. It can be argued that by having free third level education in Ireland neither of these goals are being realised, as not only are university standards suffering from the lower finances available to them versus international competitors, but as argued above free-fees do little to facilitate entry for those with lesser resources, with the Scottish example illustrating it can even make university education less egalitarian. By introducing a capped fee and loans system akin to that being used in England, all university students would be charged the marginal cost of their education and would pay back their loans from their subsequent earnings, provided they earn above a certain amount (in England the earning cut-off point is currently set at \u00a321,000) and with outstanding debts written off after a certain period of time (30 years). The savings to the state would then enable it to focus resources towards those who most need assistance in the form of maintenance grants, etc., while also maintaining quality within universities.\nAn alternative to a fees and loans model could be an adaption of the model proposed by Le Grand (Goodin and Le Grand, 1987, pp. 95-101), who looked at funding further education through the introduction of a graduate tax. By deciding to take a place on a designated course with free fees, prospective students would accept a future specified tax obligation on graduation in order to recoup the cost of the education. This would maintain free education, while freeing up resources to be directed at those in need of financial assistance and reinvestment in the underfunded third level institutes. Furthermore, linking the repayments to people\u2019s incomes means that those with low or no earnings will effectively pay less or nothing, enabling people to pursue socially valuable but poorly rewarded careers such as social work.\nBy the state seeking to recover some of the costs of third level education while maintaining access for those of lesser means, the subsidising effect for those with the best resources will be minimised. Furthermore, such a system could be manipulated to encourage applications to careers that service areas of the economy that are undermanned. For instance, the Irish public service is currently experiencing a shortage of nurses, with graduate nurses in Ireland often moving to the UK for work after completing their education in Irish subsidised universities. This is proving to be a massive cost for the Irish system, yet the introduction of fees or a graduate tax could offset this cost. Moreover, fees or a graduate tax could be used as a method of encouraging nurses to remain in Ireland on completion of their education, such as by waiving the graduate tax or writing-off a percentage of the loan repayments for nurses who commit to working in the Irish health system for a set period after graduation.\nThis article has sought to argue that paying for the benefit of further education not only allows for higher quality tuition, but also is the more egalitarian and accessible option to a fully state-funded system. In order to achieve a more equal society, with positive repercussions for the economy and self-realisation, access to further education needs to be opened to all. A system of free-fees risks both underfunding and decreasing places in universities, disproportionately affecting those from lower socio-economic backgrounds. Furthermore, it subsidises those in the best position to pay at the detriment of providing assistance to those who cannot. Individuals with a university education earn multiples of what non-university educated individuals are likely to earn over the course of their career \u2013 a fee-system will not remove this benefit, it will just allow more to avail of it.\nBoudon, R.

        "raw_content": "Every kid I know, at some point in their life, has gone through the phase of wanting to learn some magic tricks. I was no exception.\nI still remember when my dad bought me my first magic trick set while he was away on a business trip. I remember tearing off the wrapping paper and I remember holding my breath as I opened the box. I was blown away by the assortment of props and the promise of over 100 different tricks.\nIt wasn\u2019t until I carefully pulled out all of the props and lined them up on the table that I realized that something was missing\u2013the instruction manual. Without it, how would I learn all these tricks?\nI put on a brave face for my dad since he had travelled with a bulky magic box set to surprise me, but this was definitely one of those childhood experiences you always remember\u2013you can have all the materials you need, but without the directions you can\u2019t make magic happen!\nBeyond my initial excitement, the company ultimately didn\u2019t deliver and made a lasting impression.\nIn my product world today, this experience reminds me of the importance of both the product and customer experience. I\u2019ve carried forth this lesson\u2013it doesn\u2019t matter how great your product claims to be or actually is; if your customer experience doesn\u2019t deliver on the given expectations that come with your products or services, then none of that matters.\nAt the end of the day, customer experience drives growth, loyalty, and continued satisfaction for your customers. In my role it\u2019s important to have a deep understanding of our customers\u2019 needs, how they will interact with our solution, and how I can ensure on the product side, that the customer experience meets our customers expectations.\nLet\u2019s first talk about why customer experience matters.\nCustomer Experience: What Is It, And Why Does It Matter?\nCustomer experience is, simply put, the experience a person has throughout their entire relationship with your business.\nThe experience starts with the initial touchpoint your brand, products, or services have with a person, which could be anything from an advertisement on a blog to a word-of-mouth referral and continues long after a purchase takes place.\nAgain, it\u2019s an ongoing relationship.\nThere have been multiple studies on the impact customer experience has on a company\u2019s growth and returns. Watermark Consulting took a close look at the top 10 (leaders) and bottom 10 (laggards) of the publicly traded companies in the Customer Experience Index put together by Forrester Research.\nWhen measuring the rating in customer experience of these Customer Experience leaders and laggards, they found that in the span of 5 years (2007-2011), the Leaders of this study grew their returns tremendously.\nSource, Watermark Consulting.\nIn fact, Customer Experience leaders did so well that they generated 128% higher total returns than the laggards on the list. These significantly higher returns are directly impacted by the overall Customer Experience.\nThrough this one example, we can start to really understand the importance that Customer Experience has in business today. So what do the leaders on this list and others who excel in this area do differently?\nThe biggest difference is that they put the customer needs at the center of everything they do.\nIn order to effectively know and understand the needs of customers, companies study and analyze the touchpoints that take place for customers and the experience within the customer journey to find places that need improvement or where they can really double down.\nThis customer-first approach is the centerpiece for companies excelling in the modern business world and you can take advantage of these areas for your company to help gain another competitive edge.\nHow To Implement a Customer-First Approach\nSo you want to move your company into this customer-centric world and provide a stellar customer experience? Great!\nWell, our first suggestion to you is that you study The Customer Experience Maturity Model, which is a stripped-down customer experience framework that will help you really dive into the more molecular details of designing and deploying a better Customer Experience.\nTo start, let\u2019s simply break down the 3 primary steps from that framework. These are crucial to making any changes toward a customer-first company a reality.\n1. The Top-Down Push\nIf everyone in the company is going to take a customer-first approach seriously, then the initiative needs to start at the top.\nShareholders and Executives need to seriously assess the benefits of an initiative like this and become the strongest advocates within the company for implementation to take effect. Without this weighted voice, the likelihood of any changes are slim.\nThe customer journey is just a part of the entire customer experience, but a key part of customer retention and loyalty. To effectively make changes, you need to first understand what the experience looks like today.\nJourney mapping comes into play here and chances are you have more than one that you\u2019ll need to create because in a digital world, the path to purchase is different for each of your customers. Not to mention, the path to purchase of one product or service will be different compared to another.\nThe goal here would be to find the journeys that currently exist. Look at marketing campaigns, content marketing, outreach, PR, paid advertising, and other channels you use to reach and acquire customers. Find the paths they take from initial contact to purchase. Survey customers to find crucial data. Look for the problems in the current journey and prioritize them. Then rework it.\nRepeat this until you have a better understanding of your customers, their journey, and their perception of you.\n3. Ensure a Feedback-Loop Implementation\nIf you\u2019re ever going to improve the quality and consistency of your customer experience, then you\u2019re going to want to find ways to integrate feedback loops into your activities.\nA meaningful feedback loop provides a flow of insightful data and valuable feedback as you grow as a company.\nHere\u2019s the basic break down of a feedback loop:\nBuild your feedback experiment. For the customer experience, this is where you\u2019ll roll out tests for changes you think will best impact the experience. This also creates a baseline you can test against in the next go-around.\nMeasure the data and feedback. Now that you have something that you\u2019re using to test as your baseline, you need to analyze your data from various channels (marketing, emails, PPC, customer support, etc) and get feedback from your customers to see if the changes are having a positive impact on your customer experience and business.\nLearn from your experiment. The time you spend in the measurement phase of your loop should give you a better idea of if changes are made or if you need to stay the course. If a change is required, you need to figure out just what that change will look like. Then you need to take that change and start into the Build phase to begin the process again.\nThese steps are just the few things leading companies in the customer experience area are doing today.\nClearly, as we have moved into a world where the voice of the customer has become more prominent, placing an importance on putting our customers first and designing experiences they love will be what sets successful companies apart from others that fall behind.\nThe customer experience is really the only thing that matters\u2014but it\u2019s up to you to design ones that keep your customers happy and coming back for more.

        "raw_content": "What Makes a Good Piece of Writing?\nLike a disturbing volume of others my age, I\u2019ve often felt a bit \u2018priced out\u2019 of modern life and have considered ways to make some extra cash. I\u2019ve sometimes wondered if my writing may be a useful vehicle for such. It is, after all, something I massively enjoy doing, and I\u2019m a huge advocate for the idea that the more passionate you feel about something, the greater the chance of doing something good with it. At the very least, it becomes more important to try and see where it can lead to, cash motivations aside.\nIt sounds a bit cringe-worthy to admit, but very now and then, there\u2019s a fleeting daydream of opening up \u2013 with fluttering fingers \u2013 a copy of my first book as it arrives to me fresh from the publisher, and breathing in a huge sense of pride and relief that the time and effort spent on those words turned out to be \u2018worth it\u2019 (in the sense of mass produced matte covers in bold colours that are nice to run my fingernails down, and fresh white pages.)\nBut for every daydream there\u2019s a resounding countenance of realism and I know that the above only turns out true for a minority of writers, so it would probably be unwise for me to invest too much hope or need into the visual (but I\u2019m still going to give it my best shot). For the most part, the content of my writing is confined to this Blog, which I don\u2019t tend to advertise overly often. There\u2019s something about having the product of your heart and soul be critiqued by strangers on the world-wide-web that makes me hesitant to share it too much, although every now and again I\u2019ll find the courage to send it off to places. Sometimes, somebody might publish it (a very proud day even though the \u2018Comments\u2019 section promptly turned into some unrelated gender-based debate on a post that was effectively trying to promote a positive message. Oh internets, you big ol\u2019 misery guts). But most of the time, they might reply with the standard, \u201csorry, not this time\u201d e-mail. And that\u2019s really okay, because success \u2013 generally \u2013 would render itself meaningless and yield less joy if it didn\u2019t have to battle past it\u2019s stubborn opposition along the way.\nIn my more recent quests to do more with my writing I\u2019ve been looking online for possible outlets, and I must say it\u2019s been pretty depressing; not for a lack of opportunity, but for the number of articles I\u2019ve stumbled across about \u2018what makes a good piece of creative writing.\u2019 These articles all claim to offer tips and guidance on how to compose the kind of pieces that would apparently be any publisher or audience\u2019s supposed wet dream, and they jar me immeasurably. Like with most forms of art, who exactly determines what\u2019s good and what\u2019s not? And since when was it ever suitable or okay to implement a definitive set of regulations like this? That just can\u2019t work; there is nothing out there that doesn\u2019t divide opinion somewhere along the line, even the best-selling authors in the world are not without those who are indifferent to their work.\nThe whole point of creativity is that it comes from the heart and soul. It shouldn\u2019t just be a fabricated product of one too many (often contradictory) recipes for success published around the internet by people driven by formulas and a nauseous thirst for \u2018likes\u2019 and \u2018hits\u2019. To tailor your writing to bay into the ideals of the self-appointed directorate when really the beauty of writing (or any other kind of creativity) has only ever been \u2013 and should only ever be \u2013 about one\u2019s ability to express what they mean in a way that may just so happen to resonate with those who view it, just seems so inherently wrong.\nI\u2019ve been writing in this Blog each month for six years not because I\u2019m trying to sell anything or look for acclaim, I just like to write, and wanted somewhere I can keep all my articles in one place as a personal portfolio. And I would far rather keep it that way, than create pieces in which I can no longer recognise myself due to a pressure to amend it in line with the experts\u2019 view. To me, that\u2019s tantamount to plagiarism.\nCreativity should never be about trying to force your work to fit a particular model, and that isn\u2019t just me being reticent to how much I would love to have my life totally \u2018made\u2019 from this hobby, because that would be amazing, and I\u2019ll continue to look for opportunities to send off pieces that I think particular websites could be interested in. Who wouldn\u2019t love to be comfortable and financially secure from something which they\u2019re happy to pump out twenty four seven? Who wouldn\u2019t love to have fans of their work? However, if that lifestyle meant having the products of my heart and soul prodded and poked with beyond all recognition, then I don\u2019t think I would want to have it.\nI\u2019ll give an example. When rejecting one of my pieces, one very famous host-site suggested that I could improve the likelihood of things being published if the topic was \u2018more current\u2019, on the basis that more people would have an interest in it. It\u2019s a sensible theory, of course, but what if I have nothing to say about those topics? Enthusiasm is hard enough to feign in person, let alone in writing, despite having Caps Lock and exclamation marks to aid us (I\u2019m SO excited about Pippa Middleton\u2019s wedding I might need a glass of coconut water to contain myself!!!) It just doesn\u2019t work, does it?\nNothing makes me happier (excluding crisps, gin and cured meats) than people telling me they like what I\u2019ve written here, but I wouldn\u2019t feel as content about it if I couldn\u2019t feel like I \u2018owned\u2019 the words I posted, and any creative who does what they do out of love for doing it probably feels exactly the same. A completed \u2018Paint by Numbers\u2019 can look worthy of the Louvre from a distance but you wouldn\u2019t exactly be heralding the person who completed it as the next Edgar Degas once you found out that they had been told what colours to put where. Plenty of people can follow a recipe or set of instructions but only one person can say what you want to say, so say it. Do it. Colour it. Write it. Bend it. Send it. Pan-fry it and serve with curly kale, if that\u2019s how you want to do it\u2026\nThere\u2019s every value in looking for guidance when you\u2019re trying to build up confidence in your skills, in fact if I could have my dream job it would be to help people learn how to express themselves through creative writing. It\u2019s when you start going against your heart though, and start to make your painting or chapter more reflective of what you think people want to see, that you become in danger of losing the special relationship you have with your paintbrush or pen (or, well, keyboard). The importance of that relationship should never be underestimated, particularly not in a society that can be superficial enough, because essentially that relationship is the key to making creativity enjoyable. That\u2019s what makes a creative piece of writing good.\nI don\u2019t know if anything more tangible will come out of my love of writing, or if I\u2019ll ever run fingernails down any matte covers, but I\u2019ve had a nice couple of hours writing this, and that\u2019s payment enough.\nSong of the Day: Sondre Lerche \u2013 Violent Game (Ice Choir Remix)\nEvery now and then you discover a piece of music that stops you in your tracks in awe as you try and take it in for the first time, and for me, this is one of those pieces. Sondre Lerche\u2019s slow Norwegian indie-pop meets Ice Choir\u2019s energetic synthesisers and comes together for four and a half minutes of absolute wow.",

        "title": "The Miracle of Healing \u00ab SourcePoint Therapy",
        "raw_content": "By Donna Thomson | Published: December 1st, 2012\n\u2018Tis the season of miracles, when stories of miracles are told, and believed, or not. When distant stars and long ago happenings invite us to reverence and awe. It is a good time to acknowledge and revere the greatest miracle of all \u2014 life itself and the great cosmos that is its genesis and its container.\nMiracles abound. Let\u2019s take the common cold, for example. Bob and I each had one last week. There\u2019s a routine for the common cold, depending on its severity. Sleep, drink lots of water, sleep, take various supplements or medications according to your view of such things, sleep, drink lots of juice or herbal tea, and sleep some more. Watch a movie, listen to music, let go of daily routine for a day or more \u2014 unless you are pushing yourself too hard.\nWhich all really comes down to: giving your body the space and time and support to go through the process, to allow the illness to pass through, to allow the body to heal itself.\nThe one day I spent resting, I felt the miracle of what was happening in my body. I felt the guardians at work. Once again, as we so often see in healing, mostly what I had to do was support my whole system in every way I could\u2026 and then get out of the way. I was in awe at the self-healing capacity of the body. If we go deep into what happens when the body responds to a virus, it\u2019s what can be called a miracle. We take so many miracles for granted. We complain about the cold, and forget to honor the body that both succumbs to the virus and goes to work to heal itself.\nThis morning I cut myself on the edge of a can in our recycling bin. My finger bled, a little, bright red blood, bubbling forth. After a while, it stopped bleeding. Of, course, that\u2019s what cuts do, they stop bleeding. Who decided that? How does it happen that a cut stops bleeding?\nThe entire complex immune response of my body is absolutely, utterly\u2026 a miracle.\nThe word \u201cmiracle\u201d has its roots in the Latin miraculum, \u201cobject of wonder,\u201d and mirari, \u201cto wonder at.\u201d It goes back to the Sanskrit smerah, \u201cto smile, to be astonished.\u201d When we pay close attention to the infinite, beauteous, complex, delicate intricacy of energy, consciousness, spirit, form and matter that we are, how can we be anything but delighted, entranced, awed and in a state of wonder at how it all works together, at the mystery, the power? Most definitions of miracles call for an event that is out of the ordinary. What if everything that surrounds us is miraculous, worthy of wonder, incomprehensible, astonishing and transcendent?\nWhat if there is no such thing as ordinary? Or, conversely, no such thing as extraordinary?\nOne definition of \u201cmiracle\u201d I discovered was \u2013 \u201can event beyond the laws of nature.\u201d Ah, what if the laws of nature are themselves the miracle, and we humans as yet have no full comprehension of the scope of those laws, of their power? The deepest intention of SourcePoint Therapy\u00ae is to help realize the full potential of the human being. We\u2019re not looking for \u201cmiracles\u201d because we already live in one, manifest as one, and have what is called the miraculous as our very nature.\nAs science and religion both (hopefully) move beyond their current limitations, as the need for human beings to wake up becomes increasingly urgent, there is the opportunity for us all to realize that full potential. It begins with simply the re-connection, the re-awakening, of the memory of our inherent wellness: that supernatural, utterly natural state of Order, Balance, Harmony and Flow from which we are created.\nDuring this recent minor illness an insight came. As I noticed the progress of the cold, its stages, and reflected on how long it was going to last, I realized: \u201cI am already well.\u201d\nIn the Source of my being, there is inherent wellness. In my essential nature, I am well. The fundamental state of the cosmos is wellness. That is, Order, Balance, Harmony and Flow. I affirmed this to myself as I gave the illness a chance to pass through. \u201cI am already well.\u201d Perhaps this helped it to pass lightly and quickly, because it did.\nIn SourcePoint Therapy we encourage people to always take care of themselves at the material level, whether the illness is minor or major. I didn\u2019t just affirm I was already well, I did homeopathy and Chinese herbs and black elderberry syrup. It all goes together, including antibiotics and other medications and treatments when necessary. We live in some dense frequencies these days. \u201cHolistic\u201d medicine has to include the Whole, from allopathic medicine to natural remedies to spirit to Source and Blueprint. What a miracle that in this age we have so many options, so much support for wellness, even as there are so many challenges to maintaining health. Energy medicine provides a container for all the other approaches, a foundation, a support from \u201cbeyond\u201d for our lives here.\nAs the days darken, and we approach the darkest night of the year, may the beautiful dark give us the space to dream, to heal, to go inward, to sleep, and retreat. Take a few hours in the coming weeks to retreat \u2013 more if you can, but even a little goes a long way at this time of year.\nMay the dark give us an ever-deepening appreciation of the beautiful light that nourishes and supports us, the light of the sun, the light of the moon, the clear light of a winter morning, the light at the core of our being.\nBob and I wish you a happy, healthy, harmonious winter!\n\u00ab The Blueprint as a Living Being\nA SourcePoint Perspective on the Chakras \u00bb",

An instantiated point of Self Awareness is known, in gnostic traditions, as a Monad.\nIntensification of Consciousness creates Monadic Consciousness. The Intensification of Consciousness to the point of Instantiation may be referred to as First Birth.\nA Room full of Mist\nThe process of intensification is easily understood visually. Think of a large empty room full of mist. The mist is The Fabric of Consciousness. Now imagine the mist coalescing and thickening into a single intense spot. Imagine that at a certain point the mist gets dense enough and then imagine a single spot \"lightning up\" as a pinpoint of Light (i.e. a Star). The \"star\" that appears is the self aware Monad.\nFor conceptual purposes the first Star that coalesced may be referred to as Monad (capital \"M\") while all subsequent stars may be referred to as monad (little \"m\"). It should be noted in this context however that all monads are equally present and persistently connected to The Fabric. The only remotely meaningful distinction is that Monad appeared first, while monads instantiated subsequently. However, since Time is a delusion of incarnation, the distinction is not at all relevant.\nConsciousness | Intensification of Consciousness\nRetrieved from \"https://spiritwiki.lightningpath.org/index.php?title=Intensification_of_Consciousness&oldid=11274\"",

        "raw_content": "For months, the Standing Rock Sioux tribe and others in North Dakota mounted a massive protest against the controversial Dakota Access pipeline, in part over concerns that any leak could contaminate their drinking water.\nNow they are watching the Belle Fourche pipeline, which recently leaked roughly 180,000 gallons of crude into the Ash Coulee Creek in far western North Dakota. The leak was discovered Dec. 5, and authorities say there is no threat to drinking water and that the crude is 100 percent contained.",

        "title": "Get Up to Date on Ladder Safety | StaySafe.org",
        "raw_content": "As the old saying goes, it is not the falling that kills you, it\u2019s the sudden stop. Nowhere is that truer than when climbing a ladder and even the smallest of step ladders can be fatal if not used with caution. The biggest hazard when using a ladder is that your feet will usually be firmly fixed to the device while your hands may slip, making most falls are head first and very dangerous.\nWhether extension ladders, fixed ladders, portable ladders, or small wood ladders, falls from ladders of any size can create a multitude of injuries, literally from head to toe, making you lose work days, spend on medical aid or much worse. In all circumstances, it is much better to spend the extra five minutes positioning the ladder properly and making sure that it is secure than having to spend five days in a hospital for falling down from four feet.\nThere is also a problem when falling from relatively small heights as human psychology is gauged to embrace that fall with your hands, which is beneficial on soft ground, but is detrimental when falling on concrete, which is the material underneath most places where ladders are used. Use the ladder sensibly, stay safe and follow the manufacturer instructions and OSHA (Occupational Safety & Health Administration) recommendations and you will be able to use your ladder with little risk of fall or injury.\nWhen Is A Ladder The Most Dangerous?\nLadders are more dangerous than power saws, nail guns, and welding tools combined. This is not because ladders themselves carry some sort of flaw that makes them inherently dangerous, but exactly the opposite. Most people are very familiar with ladders from a very young age and don\u2019t take the necessary precautions when using them. And the lower the height the higher the risk.\nPeople who are cleaning windows or doing maintenance at the height of several stories use all kinds of harnesses and safety equipment that will save their lives if they slip from the ladder. The problem comes at small jobs and in homes when someone is using a ladder just to clean their gutters or make small repairs that take just a couple of minutes. In those cases, people don\u2019t think that they need to be secured which is the exact moment where disaster usually strikes.\nEven when you are using the ladder for just a few minutes, have in your mind the fact that falling lasts for just a few seconds and that saving a minute for a chore or a small job is not nearly worth the injury. Before you climb up, assess if you have positioned your ladder properly, if all securities are in check, and if the ladder itself is of good quality and has no holes or damage.\nIf you are using wood ladders, and you see any holes or water damage, discard it immediately and use a different ladder. Although the ladder may seem like it is sturdy and only has a little water damage, it may be rotten underneath the coating and will break as soon as you apply any weight to it. Remember to never to leave your tools on top of the ladder. If you do forget that you have placed your tools there, when taking down the ladder the tools may fall down on your head and severely injure you. It is best to keep your tools in your tool belt at all times.\nPositioning The ladder\nThe positioning of the ladder depends on the type of ladder. Once you have checked you ladder for quality, it is important to position your ladder correctly. If you are using a four-point ladder, be sure that the ladder is extended to the limit and that the holder in the middle is secured.\nNever climb to the very top of the ladder and never stand on the ladder itself. If it is a small stepping ladder, always keep your top leg one level below the top, as that way you will be able to reach with your hand if you start losing balance and you will be able to secure your footing with your shin.\nIf you are using an extension ladder, there are a couple of things you need to look for when positioning it. If you are using the ladder on a sloping terrain, make sure the ladder is at the right angle and that the footing of the ladder is secured. Most ladders have extensions on the bottom to compensate for sloping terrain and make sure that those are firmly on the ground.\nThe most important thing when positioning an extension ladder is the angle you are placing it as when the angle is too steep you will become top heavy and you will be prone to fall with the ladder. If the angle is too wide there is a chance for the bottom to pop out once you are making enough top pressure, making you fall top down. Most new models have a line on the side of the ladder which will direct you to a safe angle when that line is pointing straight to the ground the ladder is safe to use.\nNever lean your ladder against a gutter or a pipe, as in the best case scenario you may break the gutter or the pipe, making you do even more work, and, in the worst case scenario, the ladder may slip and you may fall. Always make sure that you are not placing the ladders on or near power lines or cables as metal ladders will conduct electricity and wooden ones will catch on fire, not to mention that you may cut the power lines, which creates all sorts of additional problems.\nTesting The Ladder And Securing The Bottom\nBefore you even take the first step on the ladder, you must make sure that it is safe to use. Even the most rudimentary of a test may save your life and prevent you from using a faulty ladder. The first issue you need to check is the ladder footing and to make sure that it is firmly on the ground. Don\u2019t let the ladder shake or slide on the surface and if there is no way to secure the ladder on the ground it is best to find another place from which you will be able to climb to your desired location.\nOnce you have secured the footing, apply strong pressure to the first few steps with your hands, making sure that the material has not deteriorated and that it is safe to climb. After this, shake the sides to see if the ladder is bent or slides in any direction. Finally, it is best to have some weight to secure the bottom of the ladder. While this may be a friend with some significant mass, it is much better to use a sandbag attached to the bottom.\nProfessional models have security attachments on the sides to prevent the ladder from turning or sliding, and if you are planning to use your ladder, often it may be wise to invest in such a model. There is a recommendation for you to tie the top of the ladder to a secure point, but this should be done at the end, as you need to climb the ladder first as to secure the top. Have a hook or some rope on the top as to secure the ladder quickly after climbing, making it almost impossible for it to slip or fall.\nThree-Point Security And Ladder Seats\nOSHA, as well as many other agencies, advises against placing both your hands off the ladder at any time. Several states even make this practice illegal, which may reduce your productivity on the ladder significantly. This is known as the \u2018\u2019three-point rule\u201d meaning that you need to have three points of contact with the ladder at all times.\nThere are several ways to stay safe and inside legal boundaries when working on a ladder and this can be either using a harness attachment or having a ladder seat. A harness will be tightly secured to your waist and to the ladder, making it impossible for you to fall on your back, but this can also be dangerous as you will not be able to climb down the ladder as quickly.\nLadder seats are not common and there are not many manufacturers, but if you plan on spending a lot of time on top of your ladder, this may just be the invention that will save you a lot of time, make you a lot safer, and will provide a much more comfortable working condition, as you will be sitting instead of standing.\nThere Is No Such Thing As Too Much Security\nIt can\u2019t be sufficiently repeated that there is no job too small for you to ensure your safety when working. It may sound like a waste of time for you to do all the things mentioned and make all the necessary precautions, but neither your work nor your family will notice the two minutes of extra time you have spent on security, and they will notice you falling and injuring yourself.\nTake All The Necessary Steps, Be Safe And Work Sensibly. There Is No Job That Is As Important As Your Health And Safety.\nhttps://www.traceylawfirm.com/Blog/2015/April/Ladder-Safety-Tips-For-Construction-Workers.html\nhttps://blogs.cdc.gov/niosh-science-blog/2017/06/28/ladder-safety-wrt/\nhttps://onsafety.cpsc.gov/blog/2011/12/03/ladder-safety-101/\nhttps://www.safewise.com/blog/top-window-escape-ladders/\nhttps://www.thompsoncreek.com/blog/thompson-creek-windows-reviews-ladder-safety\nMost people are very familiar with ladders from a very young age and don\u2019t take the necessary precautions when using them.",

This condition may permanently damage the heart valves. Valves control the flow of blood to and from the heart.\nDiseased Heart Valve\nRheumatic fever is caused by a specific bacteria that causes strep throat . In this case, the body uses antibodies to fight the infection, but the antibodies also attack the heart.\nRheumatic fever is more common in children and adolescents aged 5-15 years. Other factors that may increase your chances of rheumatic fever include:\nHaving strep throat\nPrior case of rheumatic fever\nSymptoms usually appear 2 to 4 weeks after a strep infection. They may include:\nCircular rash\nAbnormal, sudden movements of arms and legs\nThe doctor will ask about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done. This will include a careful exam of your heart.\nSamples may be taken of your bodily fluids and tissues. This can be done with:\nYou may need to have pictures taken of your heart. This can be done with:\nYou may need to have your heart activity measured. This can be done with an ECG .\nKill the strep bacteria\nTreat the inflammation caused by the rheumatic fever\nTreat any cardiac problems\nPrevent future cases of rheumatic fever\nAntiobiotics are used to treat the strep infection. They may be given by mouth or injection.\nTo help with joint pain and swelling:\nAspirin or other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs)\u2014only if advised by your doctor\nCorticosteroids may be used if NSAIDs are not effective or if there is inflammation of the heart\nNote : Aspirin can cause serious complications in some children with certain infections. It is best to avoid aspirin or aspirin products for children with infections.\nIn some cases, the inflammation can be severe. You may have to rest for a period of time.\nIt is important to treat strep throat with antibiotics right away. This will help prevent rheumatic fever. If you or your child has a sore throat and a fever that lasts more than 24 hours, contact your doctor.\nReviewer: David L. Horn, MD, FACP\nAcute rheumatic fever. EBSCO DynaMed Plus website.

His time finally ran out and he died peacefully at the hospital surrounded by his family. Don was very proud of his military career, which began at the age of 15. He retired after 24 years in the United States Air Force and then went on to retire from the State of California. He had an illustrious career during his 43 years in the American Legion at Post 521 in Rio Linda, CA. He was elected as the Post Commander, California\u2019s Department Commander and National Executive Committee man. He was also a member of the 40/8 for 39 years. Don always said if he knew he was going to live this long, he would have taken better care of himself. He was generally more concerned about taking care of others. We are truly lucky he lasted 82 years \u2014 we had many great years with a lot of laughs along the way. He is survived by his wife of 62 years, Lerretta, and their 5 children: Dan (Allison), Marc (Vicki), Patsy, Paul (Robin), Greg, 8 grandchildren, 2 great-grandchildren. A memorial service will be held at Sunset Lawn Chapel of the Chimes, Sacramento, CA on July 1st at 10 AM. A reception will follow at The O Club inside the Lions Gate Hotel from 12-2.\nLorna Deome says:\nOur thoughts and prayers go out to all the family and friends of Don. I met Don and his family when I was a child, when our family moved from Canada! The Drumhellers are the first family I remember meeting after we moved to North Highlands! Truly a wonderful warm loving family that I will always remember! Don will be dearly missed by all who knew and loved him! Rest in peace Don! :heart::pray::heart::pray::heart::pray::heart::pray:\nLove, Lorna Brothers Deome\nOur sincere condolences to you Leretta and family on Don's passing. I can't really remember a time when I or my family didn't know uncle Don. Sure it was Mr. Drumheller when we were kids growing up, but after the service & moving back to Sacramento I changed it to uncle Don. Can't even begin to tell you how many pictures we have as a family with Don and you Leretta in them. The hundreds of events, parties, meetings we all attended have and will always be counted as the best of times. Don was always a hard worker for the things he believed in. He was close to many, my dad's best friend, and will be missed by us all.\nAJ Salontai",

All staff had been successfully placed by the time the unit closed in 1992.\n\u200bSee also SRU garden reception for Angus Campbell featuring a 1978 video clip and a short photo gallery\nSRU publications is an extensive list of publications, deriving from work done by SRU on external funds, in collaboration with other agencies and researchers or as student dissertation projects..\nData sets for surveys done by or through the SRU are listed on Survey Research Unit: survey data sets [pdf] Many data sets from 1986 and earlier have been irretrievably lost owing to PNL computer services spring-cleaning policy for student users, but most data from 1986 onwards have been preserved.\nOutdated financial, reporting and management systems within PNL were cruelly exposed by the arrival and development of SRU. SRU and other research centres developed and thrived only through the goodwill of administrative staff in personnel and finance and the support of computer staff.\n\u200bFollowing the withdrawal of ILEA rate-borne funding for postgraduate Research Assistants and Research Fellowships (expected to register for Master and PhD respectively) SRU became completely self-funding.\nThings ran smoothly until the \"Harrington\" affair prompted the resignation of Paul Corrigan (my Head of Department) which in turn led to the resignation of the Director of the Polytechnic. ILEA then imposed John Beishon as Director who in turn installed a new senior management team (including some very dubious appointments) which adopted inappropriate business models and completely undermined the professionalism, autonomy and discretion of successful research entrepreneurs, many of whom, including myself, took early retirement at the earliest opportunity in March 1992.\n\u200bThe Survey Research Unit closed with immediate effect, as did both postgraduate courses, Survey Analysis Workshop and Survey Research Practice. All SRU staff had found new posts well before the closure. The BSc Social Research was discontinued a year later. (See: The place of SRU within PNL)",

        "raw_content": "A Second Chance Podcast shares inspiring real life stories of second chances and Victorious healing. Today we are speaking with Nicole Wipp whom has been diagnosed with Lymphangioleiomyomatosis, a rare lung disease. She has been thriving and helping others despite the difficulties she has faced.\nHer Worst Health Moment\nNicole spent over 30 days in the hospital and was diagnosed with a rare lung disease. She was told she would have a lifespan of up to 8 years and she never allowed that belief to enter her mind. Many others living with this have not survived and Nicole had some survivor guilt to work through. She faced post-traumatic stress and was able to find a mindset of gratitude and thanksgiving.\nIt takes courage and requires the vulnerability to share a personal story with the emotional and physical challenges that one has been through. If you find these stories helpful please reach out and encourage our guests or thank them for their bravery.\nHer lowest moment was when she was told that it was mostly in her head by her doctor. It was before she had to have surgery to remove fluid that kept filling up her lungs and it felt very scary and dark at that time. She had a chest pipe put in and a bronchoscopy and she felt so horrible and didn\u2019t know what her life was going to look like. There was a lot of fear because she didn\u2019t know what was wrong with her and she told her Mom and Husband that if her life was going to be like this she wouldn\u2019t want to live.\nNicole is a research subject at a Government research facility that really drives a lot of the medical research. The doctors told her on her second visit that they can\u2019t even tell she is sick. This was good and bad as she never expected to be told that and at the same time it caused a bit of survivors guilt. Once she was able to mentally work herself out of that place, she found extra meaning to associate with everything she does.\nWhat about you changed the most from this experience?\nNicole has a greater deeper appreciation for what she has and less on what she doesn\u2019t know. She is a very driven person and being competitive drove her most of her life, now she doesn\u2019t worry about it anymore. She is much more at peace with who she is now.\n\u201cNever stop taking care of yourself. An experience like this shows you that in order to take care of others you must take care of yourself.\u201d\nShare one of your personal habits that contributed to your healing.\nShe doesn\u2019t allow anyone to dictate how she feels about pretty much anything. She was told the prognosis was a 5\u2013 8-year lifespan and she would not believe it to be true.\nHer Resource\nShe mentioned this podcast and other inspirational stories have helped. She told us that when you are going through a hard time, knowing that other people have gone through them even though they are hard, even though it doesn\u2019t make her feel better, it helps to stay grounded and get through.\nWhat are you passionate about today?\nNicole is passionate about helping people find their strengths and work doing what they love. She told us that there are a couple of tools that will help you get started finding a way to live a life that makes you happy. Strengths Finder, put it into use right away, she sees people leave it on their computer for too long.\nShe tells us you can find out your strengths by asking your friends and those close to you what they see you are good at. How can you take away the things that suck the life out of you and do more of what you love? You can listen to the whole audio to hear her talk more on this topic.\nParting Guidance\nBe the best person you can be. Be proud of the person you are. Usually, the things that are most valuable to us are the things we take for granite. Don\u2019t take your self for granite.\nSound Cloud Interview\nnicolewipp.com\nhttps://www.facebook.com/nicole.wipp/\nhttps://www.facebook.com/MIEstateLawyer/\nhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/nicolewipp/\nhttps://twitter.com/nicolewipp\nEvery Day Is A Second Chance Community\nhttps://www.facebook.com/healingvictoriously/\n\u2190 42 \u2013 Life Happens, Live it! with Jake French44 \u2013 30 Day No Alcohol Challenge \u2192",

        "raw_content": "Why govt should review learning process in tertiary institutions\nThe Rector of Moshood Abiola Polytechnic, Abeokuta, Ogun State, Prof. Oludele Itiola, has urged the Federal Government to tailor the educational development of youth towards the challenges facing the country\u2019s economy in order for them to think out of the box.\nSpeaking at the 14th convocation ceremony of the institution, Itiola insisted that the country\u2019s tertiary education needed to review its total learning process so as to produce graduates that are entrepreneurially inclined.\nThis, he said, \u201cWill help in bringing our economy out of the woods. With our recent experience in the oil market, all hands must now be on deck to redirect our intellectual development towards the diversification of the economy into other sectors with potentials and for which we have comparative advantage in order to keep up our pace and place in the world market.\n\u201cOur ability to succeed as a nation in the new global economy will depend, to a very significant extent, on the dynamism and vitality of our learning process. Gone are the days when mono-import economy can survive the vagaries of the world economy. Our institutions of higher learning will have to review their total learning experience so as to nurture graduates with a willingness to think innovatively and to explore paths that have not been tried before\u201d.\nThe don was of the view that if Nigeria must survive the economic crunch, government must focus on reviving the agricultural sector with a view to encouraging local industries to thrive instead of the \u201cmono-export and import-oriented economy the country is running now\u201d.\nHe stated that the institution would soon establish a School of Agricultural Technology, saying, \u201cThis will not only break a new ground but also offer the institution an opportunity to launch our graduates into a sector that has long been seemingly neglected but that promises to bring our economy out of the woods\u201d.\nItiola said the polytechnic was collaborating with two foreign institutions for internship and graduate exchange programmes aimed at making MAPOLY a world class learning institution.\nGraduates who studied various courses in the institution between 2009 and 2015 were awarded Ordinary National Diploma (OND) and Higher National Diploma (HND) certificates at the colourful ceremony.\nModerator of the polytechnic, Amosun promised that his government would continue to make qualitative and affordable education his number one priority. He also stated that plans were on-going to make the institution a degree-awarding institution. The governor lauded the efforts of the school\u2019s Governing Council for managing the school with its Internally Generated revenue (IGR) with little government subventions.\nHe said, \u201cMapoly is the best higher institution in Ogun State. They are self-sustained and doesn\u2019t wait for government\u2019s subvention. I have never seen an institution that has managed its resources like MAPOLY. People said we are doing well but all those things I have done and will continue to do are as a result of my foundation which is this school, Ogun polytechnic (now MAPOLY)\u201d.\nAmosun, an alumni of the institution, however, promised to build two hostels in the name of his late parents to ease the problem of accommodation students face.",

Already government has had discussion with parliamentarians of all political parties represented in parliament. These talks had been successful. Several parliamentarians have given clear pledges to extend their support to the proposed constitutional amendments,\" said Minister Peiris addressing a press briefing.\nPresident Chandrika Kumaratunge has, however, informed the UNF government through her media spokesman that she will not agree for piece meal amendments to the existing constitution. Instead she would agree for a revision of abolishing the Executive Presidency.\nRegarding the question of dissolving the parliament Article 70 of the 1978 Constitution states as follows: -\n70 (1) The President may from time to time by Proclamation summon, prorogue and dissolve parliament: Provided that-\na) subject to the provisions of sub paragraph (d), when e General Election has been held consequent upon a dissolution of Parliament by the President, the President shall not thereafter dissolve Parliament until the expiration of a period of one year from the date of such General Election, unless Parliament by resolution requests the President to dissolve Parliament.",

        "raw_content": "Film: The Library Music Film\nIf you're not a crate digger, DJ, EDM track sampler, post production whiz, or music historian, you might not know what library music \u2013 also known as production or stock music \u2013 is, or why there would be a documentary about such a thing. But this rare breed of music \u2013 mostly being rediscovered on vinyl these days \u2013 is quite simply recorded music that can be easily licensed for use in film, television, radio, and other uses. In many cases the music is produced and owned by production music libraries, like De Wolfe, Bruton, and KPM. True fans have been collecting these records for years, as the music written to order for certain moods and types of scenes can be unusual, compelling, groovy, and just plain something different. Directed, produced, and edited by Paul Elliott, and filmed by Sean Lamberth, the film is narrated by, and follows, the charming musician and record producer Shawn Lee, as we go on a journey to collector's homes, recording studios, and library businesses (yes, many still operate!). For us Tape Op nerds, the rare glimpses into some of these studios alone are worth the viewing, as they visit De Wolfe's Angel Recording Studios in London, TeleCineSound in Rome (built in 1967 by composer/conductor Bruno Canfora), and Le Studio CBE in Paris (built in 1966 by Chatelain, Bisson, and Estardy). We also get quite a bit of interview time with the late Adrian Kerridge, famed engineer/producer and founder/owner of Lansdowne and CTS Studios; he even started the CADAC console company. [Please check out his memoir, Tape's Rolling, Take One: The Recording life of Adrian Kerridge]. But wait, there are insightful interviews with library music composers and musicians such as Keith Mansfield, Alan Hawkshaw, Alan Parker, Brian Bennett, and Herbie Flowers; plus DJs and producers like Fatboy Slim, Adrian Younge [Tape Op #119], Cut Chemist, and Young Einstein. The Library Music Film offers a special and very passionate glimpse into an aspect of music production that typically has remained anonymous and unsung, even if we have heard some of these songs our entire lives on television and such! It's awesome to see many of the people involved get credit for their work.\nfacebook.com/LibraryMusicFilm\nFilms | No. 123\nOne cannot mention Suzanne Ciani's name without following it up with the word \"trailblazer.\" This documentary film follows Ciani as she creates a world that basically didn't exist before she came...",

        "raw_content": "Survivors of breast cancer often experience cancer-related or treatment-related symptoms months or years after treatment. These symptoms commonly include menopausal symptoms, fatigue, cognitive changes, and hair thinning or hair loss. There is reason to believe that consumption of some phytochemicals in foods might mitigate these late effects of breast cancer treatment. Isoflavones in soy bind to estrogen receptors and exert weak estrogenic effects.\nDocosahexaenoic Acid (DHA) Responsible for Heart Rate Lowering Effect of Omega-3s\nLong-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 LCPUFAs) have been extensively studied for their cardioprotective effects. Several studies suggest that n-3 LCPUFAs reduce the risk of sudden cardiac death, and it has been suggested that they do so by reducing resting heart rate. A meta-analysis to evaluate the effect of n-3 LCPUFAs on HR was published in 2005 and included 30 randomized controlled trials (RCTs) with 1678 participants. Since that time, many more RCTs have been conducted on this topic.\nMaternal Folic Acid or Multivitamin Use and Autism Spectrum Disorder\nThe association between maternal folic acid and multivitamin supplementation and risk of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) has been evaluated in several epidemiologic studies. The California Childhood Autism Risks from Genetics and Environment (CHARGE) study identified a reduced risk of ASD with folic acid supplementation beginning 12 weeks prior to pregnancy and into the first 4 weeks into pregnancy. Studies in Norway have reported similar findings, but studies in Denmark have not. Results from the Stockholm Youth Cohort reported an association between multivitamin use during pregnancy and a reduced risk of ASD with intellectual disability.\nMelatonin for Dyslipidemia\nMelatonin, a hormone produced by the pineal gland, is best known for regulating sleep and the circadian rhythm. Melatonin can also exert anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, immunomodulatory, and cardio-protective effects. Experimental studies show that melatonin enhances insulin sensitivity, increases activity of lipoprotein lipase, decreases lipolysis in adipose tissue, increases conversion of cholesterol to bile acids, and protects LDL from oxidation.\nOmega-3 Fatty Acids for Chemotherapy-Induced Mucositis\nMucositis is a common side effect of chemotherapeutic drugs used in the treatment of cancer. Almost all patients receiving high-dose chemotherapy and 80% of patients being treated for head and neck cancers experience mucositis. Symptoms include oral ulcers, erythema, edema, bleeding, and severe pain, which can interfere with swallowing, eating, drinking, and talking. Mucositis can also increase the risk of infection and interfere with patients\u2019 ability to tolerate cancer treatments.\nCurcumin, Memory, and Neurodegeneration: A Randomized Controlled Trial\nCurcumin, a polyphenolic compound derived from Curcuma longa (turmeric), is known for its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Studies in animals suggest that curcumin may also offer neuroprotection by decreasing accumulation of beta-amyloid in senile plaques and tau proteins in neurofibrillary tangles. Senile plaques and neurofibrillary tangles are hallmarks of Alzheimer\u2019s disease but may begin to develop decades before symptoms of dementia appear.",

Both Kyle Cooke and Amanda Batula have confirmed today that Kyle has officially popped the question and longtime fans of the show will know that this moment was worth the wait!\nSpeaking with People Magazine, Amanda spoke at length about her soon-to-be husband. \u201cIt\u2019s surreal,\u201d she said of the engagement. \u201cAside from how funny and sexy he is, Kyle\u2019s my best friend. He\u2019s the person I go to for everything. And he forces me to be a better person in different ways by pushing me outside of my comfort zone. Life with him is exciting. And to think he wants to spend the rest our his life with me and I feel the same way, it\u2019s just a real happy feeling.\u201d\nAnd Kyle equally gushed about his now-fiance\u00e9, \u201cAmanda\u2019s the most authentic, genuine person I\u2019ve ever met,\u201d he said.\n\u201cI really look up to her. She\u2019s incredibly selfless, thoughtful, generous and accommodating. She puts family and friends as the top priority, and bends over backwards for the people that are important to her. That\u2019s what you look for in someone you want to spend the rest of your life with. She\u2019s a hell of a partner.\u201d\nThe two met in 2015 while starring on the Bravo show Summer House, but it took two years before Kyle popped the question. Speaking of the ring that Kyle used to propose, Amanda shared that she \u201chad a pretty good idea of what [she] wanted,\u201dbut the exact ring didn\u2019t exist anywhere that I could find visually, so I gave him a few examples that he could choose from.\u201d\nShe also confessed that the proposal had been a surprise to her. She admitted that she didn\u2019t expect Cooke to propose for another year, though \u201cHe ended up designing exactly what I wished.\u201d The ring is a two-and-a-half carat diamond engagement ring, cushion cut on a split shank band from designer Stephanie Gottlieb.\n\u201cIt\u2019s beautiful. He did a good job. I look down at it and still can\u2019t believe it\u2019s my ring on my finger.

        "raw_content": "Alibaba Says It Will Block U.S. Sales Of Banned Or Recalled Toys And Other Goods\nAlibaba, the Chinese B2B trading marketplace that last year went through a blockbuster IPO in the U.S., today made a move to self-police itself around one of the more sensitive issues around imports from its home country: Chinese products that have been deemed dangerous by U.S. authorities, but somehow manage to make their way to U.S. buyers anyway.\nToday, Alibaba said that it had signed a voluntary safety collaboration with the U.S Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) to halt those transactions that terminate in the U.S. with U.S. resellers.\nIn a blog post on the new controls, the CPSC writes that the move will establish better lines of communication between Alibaba and the CPSC, and under the agreement, Alibaba says it will act faster on requests over banned and recalled products, as well as give better information to U.S. buyers ahead of them purchasing goods that may be on the blacklist.\nThe news was announced today at the Hong Kong Toys and Games Fair, and while children\u2019s products is definitely one of the bigger product groups at issue here, the rules will apply across other categories as well, including phones, chargers, gadgets and other electronics goods.\nThe announcement comes some three months after the chairman of the CPSC, Elliot Kaye, made a point of criticising e-commerce sites that enable the sale of these goods, with the implication that there should be tighter controls to restrict this. (One company singled out by Kaye, Craigslist, subsequently defended itself in an open letter to chairman Kaye.)\nIn that context, it\u2019s not too surprising to see Alibaba taking more action for self-regulation before a third party makes that decision. It\u2019s also not surprising that it would get pressure to rein in some of its unfettered growth: the company last quarter reported revenues of $2.7 billion, which was only curtailed because it\u2019s investing so much in expansion.\nIt seems that other sites may already have similar arrangements with the CPSC, which says it \u201cworks closely with other online marketplaces to protect the safety of U.S. consumers in the online marketplace.\u201d\n\u201cWith an increasing number of companies and consumers taking their business online, Alibaba\u2019s decision to implement these new policies is a victory for U.S. consumers and their safety,\u201d said Chairman Kaye in a statement. \u201cThe company\u2019s forward leaning approach in this regard will help prevent dangerous and recalled products from being passed on to unsuspecting consumers.\u201d\nAlibaba in 2014 saw 300 million buyers come to its platform, and its huge growth has in part been a by-product of the boom in Chinese manufacturing and the import of Chinese goods to other markets like the U.S.\n\u201cWe are honored and proud to work with the CPSC on these important and serious consumer protection measures. Chairman Kaye is a strong leader with an excellent track record of results in protecting U.S. consumers. We look forward to working collaboratively with the Chairman and his team to do everything possible to protect consumers,\u201d said Jim Wilkinson, Alibaba Group\u2019s Senior Vice President for Corporate Affairs, said in a statement.",

        "title": "The Gibson | Tell Us a Story",
        "raw_content": "by Karra Shimabukuro\nThe Gibson cleaned up and at auction.\nThis is a morality tale, I\u2019m just not sure what the moral is. Maybe it will come to me by the end? I\u2019m sure all of you have at some point heard of Stradivarius violins. These violins are special because of their rarity: Antonio Stradivari crafted 1,116 instruments in his lifetime and only 602 survive. This, in addition to their unique sound, make them very valuable. A Stradivarius regularly sells for 1 to 2 million dollars. This is the story of the Gibson, a very special Stradivarius, if only because of the adventures, drama, and scandal that surround it.\nIt is here that I shall introduce the villain of our story: Julian Altman. He had a job at the Russian Bear, a restaurant next door to Carnegie Hall. Being quite the accomplished young musician, he would often hang out backstage at Carnegie Hall when not working. Therefore, on this particular February night, the doorman stationed at the stage door thought nothing of letting him in. Nor did he find it strange that Julian walked in carrying his violin case. You see, Julian was often allowed to use the empty dressing and storage rooms to practice and, with his violin case in hand and dressed in the outlandish Cossack costume of the Russian Bear, Julian was a familiar sight around Carnegie Hall.\nLet\u2019s pause a moment here for a brief report on the weather. Trust me, it\u2019s important. That night it was humid in the hall, and therefore, the evening\u2019s performer, a Polish violinist by the name of Bronislaw Huberman, decided not to play his Gibson Stradivarius. Instead he played his second best violin. No one noticed when Julian walked into Huberman\u2019s dressing room and replaced the Gibson with his own violin. In fact, Julian was such a friendly and familiar sight that even when it was discovered that Huberman\u2019s Gibson Stradivarius had been stolen out of his dressing room, he was never even questioned. The next day, Julian took the violin to a pawnbroker who promptly informed him that the violin was too hot to sell. Julian, using his own twisted logic, decided to keep it as his own.\nJulian playing for friends in Silver Spring, MD. The author is seated on the piano bench.\nTime after that becomes unimportant. Julian spent the next forty years playing the Gibson in piano bars around Washington D.C, often leaving it at the bar when he went home drunk with some random woman. But he also played that violin in the National Symphony, for President Richard Nixon, and Vice President Hubert Humphrey, so maybe it all balances out. In all this time, no one once ever commented on Julian\u2019s violin. Julian also played his violin for a little girl on her birthday \u2014 every birthday for as long as she could remember. It was always the same song: \u201cLara\u2019s Theme\u201d from Doctor Zhivago. It was something special to her because she was the only one (other than Julian) who was allowed to resin the bow and she learned more than you could possibly want to know about violins.\nJulian, Marcelle, the author, her mother, and her baby sister at her baptism.\nJulian was often praised for his talent, for despite being a violent drunk, an asshole, and an all around bad person, God had blessed him with an amazing gift when it came to that violin. From 1968 on, Julian lived with a woman named Marcelle Hall. She was a good match: a drunk and an abusive woman. However, unlike Julian she had no God-given musical talent to redeem her; she was simply evil. Someone could have saved everyone a lot of trouble and simply dropped a house on her like they do to witches in stories.\nAnyway, Julian had gotten himself into a bit of trouble because it turns out he was not a nice man to little girls (one little girl in particular, the one he played for on her birthday every year). Let\u2019s just leave it at that, shall we? He was put on trial, pleaded no contest, and was sentenced to a year at Bridgeport Jail.\nWhen Julian was charged, Marcelle became very upset because, over the fifteen years they had been together, they had never married, but Marcelle had nevertheless managed to sign over everything she owned to him, including her house and her car. She was faced with losing everything it seemed. So, thinking quickly, she convinced Julian that she loved only him, and as a sign of her love, would fly to Vegas to marry him. He said yes, and two days before his sentencing hearing, they flew to Vegas and were married. Aw, isn\u2019t that sweet? Okay, not really.\nAlmost halfway through his paltry one-year jail sentence, in a scene that no writer could create, Julian was climbing onto the toilet in his jail cell one day (no explanation was ever given for this escapade) when he slipped and hit his head. Poor Julian. When he was taken to the doctor to be checked out for a bump on the head, it turned out that he had stomach cancer and had only months to live. Ain\u2019t karma a bitch?\nMarcelle was ecstatic. Soon all of her property would revert back to her. However, there was more good news heading her way. One afternoon, as she visited him in the prison hospital, Julian confessed a deep, dark secret of his. He told her to go home and check the space between the hard and soft cover of his violin. Marcelle rushed home and found dozens of articles about the theft of Huberman\u2019s Stradivarius from almost 50 years before. She went to see Julian the next day to ask about the articles, although, knowing him to be a sneaky bastard, she had a good idea that he was behind the famous theft. Julian\u2019s story changed several times: his mother put him up to it, he bought it for $100, but eventually, he confessed to it all.\nGibson in case.\nAlas, on August 12, 1985, poor Julian died. It was not a sad affair and no one mourned him. Marcelle lost no time in contacting her cousin, who was a lawyer, and having him contact Lloyd\u2019s of London. You see, the Gibson, like all Stradivarius violins, was considered a work of art, and had been insured by Lloyd\u2019s. After the theft, Lloyd\u2019s paid Huberman, which meant they now owned the Gibson Stradivarius.\nCharles Baere\u2019s visit to Connecticut to appraise the Gibson.\nSoon, Marcelle\u2019s Connecticut home was jammed with newspaper reporters from the New York Times, Newsweek, local papers, hell, even Connie Chung made an appearance to interview her. Charles Baere flew in from Lloyd\u2019s of London to look at the violin. He declared its authenticity and took it back with him to be restored and auctioned off later in Milan. Lloyd\u2019s sold it for 1.2 million dollars to Norbert Brainin. Marcelle was invited to the auction and given $263,000 as a finder\u2019s fee, which she blew in a few years. Marcelle died, alone in a trailer park in New Hampshire, under the sad care of her religious, schizophrenic son who cremated her before her daughter could make the trip. Again, ain\u2019t karma a bitch?\nMarcelle at the auction in Milan.\nBut, dear folks, that is not the end of our tale. Our tale has a happier ending. Years later, the Gibson was bought by the attractive and talented Joshua Bell, who loved the drama and scandal that surrounded the violin almost as much as he loved its sound when he played it. The little girl, from way back in our story (remember, \u201cLara\u2019s Theme\u201d?) happened to see that Joshua Bell had bought the Gibson. On a whim, she emailed him, explaining her relationship to the violin. It turned out he was playing a concert in town the next week, and would she want to come and hear and see the Gibson?\nThe girl showed up a week later and picked up her VIP tickets, not sure how she felt about this. Then Bell began to play. The sound was as beautiful as she remembered. As the concert ended, she waited backstage as she had been told, and reflected that Bell was like a modern day rock star: there were droves of women waiting to meet him, and she actually saw several slip him their phone number. Tacky, but true. However, he separated himself from the crowd of groupies and came over to her and took her to a private space over the side and asked her if she wanted to see the Gibson. She nodded yes, almost not trusting herself to speak. He opened the case, and as if sensing her emotions, turned his back on her with the Gibson. She simply stared at it. It looked different now that it was loved. The layers of cigarette smoke from Julian\u2019s years in cheap bars had been removed and it glowed a lovely red. She touched it gently and remembered the time she had spent with it growing up, and how it had been a bright spot in so many dark years.\nShe thanked Joshua for this. He said she was welcome and that someday they would have to sit down so he could hear the whole story.\nWe haven\u2019t yet, but I have no doubt one day we will.\nKarra Shimabukuro is a 37 year old independent scholar and soon to be PhD student at the University of New Mexico, Albuquerque. She is the proud mom to the puppy, Nehi. She is obsessed with tv, movies, books. And violin music. You can read her blog here: http://scholarlymedievalmadness.blogspot.com/\nKarra, thanks so much for sharing this story with us. It was only after you sent this to us that I started to research the Gibson and I was surprised by how much press coverage the story received. The violin has its own Wikipedia page!\nBut what is missing from all of those accounts is your voice and your perspective. This violin must represent so many mixed feelings for you.\nThank you for telling us a story.\nposted May 29, 2013 at 9:17 am by Amanda Ann Klein Reply\nThere are several renditions to this story. The NY Times rendition is a bit different in that Altman bought the violin from the thief at the Russian Bear the night it was lifted for one hundred dollars. I dug around a bit and found this story and would like to know if any literary license was applied to the story line. If not, where are the facts of this rendition located?\nposted October 2, 2013 at 2:26 pm by Clutch Martin Reply\nMy grandmother took several artistic licenses with the story in her multiple interviews as she was (as she admitted to us) afraid of persecution as an accessory as the statute of limitations never runs out on art. I wrote this based on the stories told by her, and my own recollections of growing up withthe Gibson\nposted October 4, 2013 at 11:00 am by Karra Shimabukuro in reply to Clutch MartinReply\nHi Clutch,\nAs far as I know, Kara is telling the story as she remembers it from her childhood. I can ask her to comment if you like, but the thief was, in fact, her grandfather.\nposted October 2, 2013 at 2:33 pm by Amanda Ann Klein Reply\ntales of instruments, tales of theft\nJoshua Bell, Julian Altman, Stradivarius, The Gibson",

        "raw_content": "There is much talk these days of the future world of work, whether it\u2019s from the perspective of the 100-year life or humans versus AI. Different studies tell us different things, give us different theories as to what our future world will look like; and whilst no hypothesis is conclusive, I am pleased that it is being discussed and ideas shared. What is more frightening than walking blindfold into a future where an acceptance of \u2018this is how things are\u2019 takes us to a place we really wouldn\u2019t want to go.\nOne thing that is certain is that the children of today are critical in determining the world of tomorrow. For me that means equipping our young people with curious minds, collaborative mind-sets, the ability to keep growing and developing and, importantly, having resilience; the ability not only to cope with change but to thrive on it. Yet all the studies tell us that mental ill health amongst children and young people is on the rise. Wherever we point the finger of blame for this growing epidemic, we need to do something about it now: to provide the right support and the right interventions.\nRecent involvement in a local campaign took me into schools and community centres in my local city. There I heard stories of young people\u2019s challenging experiences. I also met some amazing women (and yes they were all women) working tirelessly, with limited resources, to support children and young people in a myriad of different ways. Their dedication humbled me. One of these women was a school counsellor who worked in schools in some of my city\u2019s more deprived areas. Today is world mental health day and today\u2019s guest blog is from that school counsellor.\nIn order to write this blog, I have to answer the question presented to me, which was \u201cWhat is it like to work with mental health in young children?\u201d and the truth is, that despite several attempts at writing and re writing\u2026I have no definitive answer.\nIt\u2019s a hundred different things and countless individual little moments. It\u2019s politics and money and funding and frustration and exhilaration and exhaustion, and so much more. I am a school counsellor working with children and young people from 5-18 years of age with a background of 19 years as a private nanny; and yet there really was no amount of experience of working with children or training for a degree in psychotherapy that could prepare me for this role\u2026.\nI knew the moment I walked into the school that it was where I wanted to be, but it was a steep learning curve for me to disseminate the roles of nannying and counselling. I was no longer able to give these children a hug, or confide in their parents that I had concerns about their friendships. I was suddenly in a position where the child had the autonomy; the child made the decision whether or not to engage, and whether or not to trust me. I had little control and was not able to influence them in any way. Which meant learning a new way.\nBeing in that school, in an area of deprivation and poverty and with a demographic that presented multi-faceted and complex needs on a weekly, if not daily basis, was truly a baptism of fire. Within a very short time I had learnt the hard way how to make safeguarding referrals, the importance of accurate note taking, the absolute need for immediate communication with other professionals when the circumstance called for it and the unendingly intricate balance of maintaining a client\u2019s confidentiality versus keeping them safe.\nI learnt to trust my gut. And to check it. And check it again.\nI\u2019ll never forget one of the very first sessions I had with a young man who came into my room, and literally choked on his words. Unable to breathe, or talk, and with tears streaming down his face, he stuttered his way through a disclosure of such awful childhood trauma that it was all I could do to stay in the moment with him, hear him, allow space for this regurgitation of details that left me with my first experience of vicarious trauma. Afterwards I reflected on what an incredibly courageous thing it had been for him to divulge his most feared memories and wondered what I had done to deserve the honour of being trusted with them.\nIt was in those early sessions that I sincerely learnt to listen, and more significantly I learnt the importance of patience. I remember one client who came to me for 4 weeks straight, for 40 minutes every week, and each time there was nothing but silence. Completely stonewalled \u2013 no way in, no way out. I sat with her and listened to her censorship of self. I watched the clock. I wondered. I worried. I hung on in there. She kept returning, she stayed mute and then she left.\nTwo years later she walked in, sat down and told me what hurt. I cried, she cried\u2026 all she had needed was for me to prove that I wasn\u2019t going anywhere. That I accepted her in her silence, and that I didn\u2019t give up. In those interminable minutes of silence when my head had been going all over the place and I was doubting my ability, all she had needed was for me to sit tight.\nThat one girl taught me so much.\nAnother young person I once worked with suffered severe depression and was a regular self-harmer. It was not uncommon for this person to reach such depths of despair that they felt the only way out was to die. Frequently we would be contracting around whether or not they felt they would be alive for the next session. Those moments are terrifying. Like, genuinely scary. I questioned for hours afterwards whether the words I had chosen were the right ones. I picked apart every moment of that 40-minute session to see if I\u2019d covered all bases, trying to find anything I may have missed. But week after week and month after month this person stayed alive and kept returning.\nI marvelled at the strength, determination and courage it took for them to do that. And when life began to change, when things began to look not only manageable but enjoyable for this person, when they could start to see a future for themselves, we would reflect back on how far we had come together and I would ask how they thought counselling had helped, and they answered \u201cYou never tried to fix me, you just let me be me.\u201d\nIt sounds so incredibly simple when you write it down on paper, and in many ways it is.\nSometimes I leave work and I am railing against the utter lack of resources available to us, the complete annihilation of funding in a world that is ever increasing need of mental health support. I feel like I\u2019m in an industry where increasingly all we as a collective are managing to do is keep the tide at bay, placing ill equipped sticking plasters over problems that need serious investment and an overhaul of the entire education system to include, no, prioritise, mental health awareness.\nBut that\u2019s not the real answer to the question posed. The real answer lies somewhere within those precious shared moments with a person who has been brave enough to share their pain with you. The answer lies within those moments when I leave work knowing that I made a difference. The answer, I think, is to do with human connection.\nKatrina Foord is a qualified counsellor and psychotherapist working in primary and secondary schools in and around Brighton. With almost 20 years of experience working with children in various capacities, Katrina is passionate about bringing awareness of mental health into schools from very early on in order to promote, encourage and sustain a mentally healthy and resilient future generation.\nPosted on October 10, 2018 October 9, 2018 Leave a comment on Human Connections",

        "raw_content": "How Do We Support Survivors in a Sea of Triggers?\nNovember 30, 2017 Benny Vimes3 Comments\nCN: Sexual harassment, sexual assault, abuse.\nLike many of my friends I am glad that many serial abusers and harassers, in a range of powerful positions, are being named and actually facing real consequences these days. I want those who perpetrate these crimes to suffer consequences for their action, and I am grateful to have seen an increase in support for their accusers.\nHowever, this atmosphere of constant discussion of abuse in media, social conversations, and online comes at a cost for many of us. Especially for survivors of exactly the kinds of crimes that are being talked about on a daily basis the incessant stream of accusations, discussions, and media attention can be draining and deeply painful.\nI am a multiple experience sexual assault survivor. On a day to day basis an occasional news story about sexual assault, or a discussion about harassment on a friend\u2019s Facebook wall is a fairly manageable experience for me. Mostly I want to be supportive of other survivors and can often wait to read such things until I am in a good frame of mind (Content/trigger warnings really help this). I have occasionally been pretty seriously triggered by media but that\u2019s not a common experience for me.\nBut that is my experience in the old world, the one in which weeks or months would go by between reports that various powerful men were being accused. I got a chance to heal a little between major news (or personal) stories about harassment and assault. Once I got more involved in social justice and feminist movements I definitely became a bit more raw \u2013 I heard more about people\u2019s experiences, so I struggled a bit more with them. Until recently this was manageable.\nFrankly, lately it isn\u2019t.\nI\u2019ve been struggling with depression and fear that is deepened daily by report after report of harassment and assault. Every time I pull up my Facebook page, my Twitter feed, my podcasts, any radio, or glimpse the TV in the lobby at school I am faced with experiences that remind me of my own. There were no trigger warnings on the conversation around the table at Thanksgiving dinner, nor any way to catch up on other news without also getting a flood of these stories.\nThroughout all of this I have still had to go to work and go to school, fulfill my household obligations, and otherwise act as if everything is fine. It\u2019s not fine, I\u2019m not fine, and things are slipping. I am certain I am not the only one struggling like this. This moment is painful for many survivors.\nSo my question is this: How do we support survivors of harassment, assault, and rape in moments like this where the world is a sea of discussion about the topic? Obviously not talking about it isn\u2019t helpful, because a lack of attention is part of what got us here in the first place. When we are, as a culture, having this necessary conversation, what should we also do to ensure that we are not unnecessarily re-traumatizing those we wish to support and protect?\nSome of us have our own experiences very much at the forefront of our minds right now, but few places to discuss those thoughts that actually feel safe. If you are emotionally able to be a place to just listen to the thoughts of the survivors in your life, say so. Be prepared to listen without judgement, or an attempt to fix things. Frankly, being a survivor right now can feel oddly isolating and lonely, and if you can just listen right now it would be great if you would.\nOn the other hand, many of us also need some space away from the topic entirely. If you can create social spaces to talk about ANYTHING ELSE, that may really help the survivors in your life. Be explicit about the fact that you\u2019re creating a \u201cno talking about the news\u201d kind of zone, and focus conversations on other topics for awhile. Doing so in a way that actively seeks to include survivors helps.\nIf you are able or willing to do these things, remember that you may not know who the survivors in your life are. If you are able to reach out in a way that is somewhat public, and let folks know you want to create these kinds of spaces, that\u2019d be really helpful too.\nDo you have other suggestions about how to support survivors right now? I\u2019d love to hear them.",

Pilot found dead.\nOn Jul. 6, a Polish MiG-29 (reportedly: airframe bort no. 4103) has crashed in the village of Sak\u00f3wko (Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship). The cause of the crash is unknown. The pilot ejected but did not survive. According to the Polish MoD the pilot was declared dead at 2.30 AM. The disaster happened at 1.57 AM. The Fulcrum belonged to the 22nd Airbase in Malbork.\nAccording to the foreign media quoted by a former Polish jet pilot, Micha\u0142 Fiszer, in his interview for the TVN24 outlet, the pilot belonged to the demo team showcasing the Fulcrums on air shows. The MoD release suggests that the late pilot was quite an experienced aviator, with 800 hours logged in the air and 500 of those were logged on the Fulcrum. The wreckage has been found around 500 meters from the residential buildings, while the body of the pilot was 200 meters from the wreck.\nThe circumstances are being investigated now by the Polish Committee for Investigation of National Aviation Accidents (Polish: Komisja Badania Wypadk\u00f3w Lotniczych Lotnictwa Pa\u0144stwowego; KBWLLP), which is the aircraft accident investigation agency of Poland regarding state and military aircraft. It is distinct from the State Commission on Aircraft Accidents Investigation, which investigates civil aviation accidents. The MoD asked the journalists not to comment and speculate on the disaster, until an official report is issued.\nNotably, this is the second crash of a Polish Fulcrum in little more than 6 months. Last one happened occurred to the other Fulcrum base in Minsk Mazowiecki. In that case, however, according to \u2018off the record\u2019 sources, the pilot, who did not eject and landed the jet in the woods \u2013 survived.\nTop image: composite photo showing, on the left, the wreckage of a Polish Air Force MiG-29 jet that crashed in the fields in the country\u2019s north during a night training flight, near the town of Paslek, in Poland (credit: AP Photo/TVN24) and a Fulcrum at Radom Air Show last year (credit: Siminski).\nCalifornia Air National Guard F-15 Eagle Boarding Ladder Deployed in Flight During Flyover at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles\nSeptember 3, 2014 David Cenciotti Aviation Safety / Air Crashes, Libya, Rogue States 1\nFree Libya Air Force Mig-21 crashed into city blocks at Tobruk, in eastern Libya.

        "raw_content": "Posted on June 17, 2018 June 17, 2018 General Musings\nWhat is Akkadian?\nWhen I tell folks about the material that I work with, people understand what I mean by Hebrew Bible (Old Testament) and Biblical Hebrew; however, far fewer people know what I mean by \u201cAkkadian\u201d or \u201ccuneiform.\u201d So, in this blog post, I will concisely define \u201cAkkadian\u201d and \u201ccuneiform.\u201d\n\u201cAkkadian\u201d is primarily a semitic language which was used in ancient Mesopotamia. The most well known literature originally written in Akkadian is the Epic of Gilgamesh.\nBecause Akkadian was around since the 3rd millennium, though, it developed like any other language. So now, for example, scholars refers to different dialects of Akkadian, such as Old Babylonian, Old Assyrian, Neo-Assyrian, Neo-Babylonian, and more. Each of these titles reflects a single language (Akkadian) with various dialects which were spoken in different time periods and locations.\nHow do we know, though, that Akkadian was a spoken language in ancient Mesopotamia and how do we determine the dialects? In the 19th and 20th centuries, archaeology in the Middle East became popular. As folks discovered ancient Mesopotamian artifacts, part of these artifacts was an abundance of dried clay tablets with a cryptic script. This script was called \u201ccuneiform,\u201d referring to the wedge shaped incisions on the clay tablets.\nSee, for example, this receipt tablet:\nWhen this script was decoded in the 19th century, scholars realized that the language reflected in the cuneiform script was Akkadian. As more texts were discovered throughout Mesopotamia, this picture became more complicated. Sometimes the cuneiform script is used for languages other than Akkadian. Such is the case for Ugaritic, Hittite, and Elamite.\nIn short, Akkadian is a language. It was written in cuneiform, a script which looks like patterns of wedges on the surface of a clay tablet. And although cuneiform was typically used in Akkadian, the same writing script is also used in some other languages.\nAkkadian cuneiform Ugarit What is akkadian\n\u2190 Summary and Reflections on Onomastics Training Week\nMesopotamian Monday: Shalmaneser in Ararat \u2192\n2 thoughts on \u201cWhat is Akkadian?\u201d\nVincent S Artale Jr , June 18, 2018 at 10:21 am\nPingback: Biblical Studies Carnival 149 (June 2018) | Reading Acts",

        "title": "The Social Downsides to Veganism | The Bricky Blog",
        "raw_content": "\u00ab New Site Launched!\nThe Social Downsides to Veganism\nIt\u2019s been over a year and a half since I threw in the towel and gave up several aspects of my lifestyle and diet: meat, fish, eggs, dairy, honey, silk, leather, wool, and I became much stricter with my choice of cosmetic brands. My last entry to this effect covers my reasons and I can\u2019t say that they\u2019ve changed much \u2013 my motivation has become a little more emotive than before, but the rationale remains the same: reduce consumption, reduce demand. Demand reduced, less animal lives streamlined unnecessarily for the overall human population\u2019s diet and lifestyle.\nIn this time, I have only become more assured of my choices. I feel good, I\u2019m really pleased with my figure, and I\u2019ve really grown to love the vegan recipes I\u2019ve learned. At odd times I\u2019d like it all to be a tad more convenient, but it\u2019s really not too bad at all \u2013 there is always something you can cook quickly and easily, with items available in a corner shop, and besides which, the forward planning allows me to ensure I\u2019m getting all the nutrition I need, and helps me save money too. Do I miss any non-vegan foods? Enh, maybe brie.\nThe biggest challenge, BY FAR, is the social aspects of the lifestyle. When I first started trying out veganism, people were very curious and I really enjoyed the discussions about it. However, my closest friends and family are now accustomed to it and I detect hints of frustration now and then; I think they may\u2019ve expected this venture to be a little more temporary. That\u2019s not to mention frustration at them on my part too, I\u2019ll be honest; the more passionate I feel about animal rights, the less tolerance I have of their continuing to eat animal products, particularly meat. And, in the case of people I\u2019m explaining the concept to for the first time, the conversation is extremely tiring; they always ask the same questions, i.e. \u201cWhat do you miss the most?\u201d and \u201cWhat if you kept your own chickens?\u201d I really wish it was socially acceptable to give people URLs in real life and answer simply with, \u201cread my fucking blog.\u201d\nIt really goes to show how big a role food plays, both culturally and socially. The social aspects are a given: the modern lifestyle in the western world involves popping into almost any establishment at any time to enjoy a wide range of food and drink. If you\u2019re a vegetarian, this will frequently involve simply selecting the one cheese-endowed option on the menu. If you\u2019re a strict vegetarian, you might have to opt for spirits rather than wine. And if you\u2019re a vegan, it will inevitably come down to a mundane novelty-free food like jacket potato and baked beans, or maybe even just a bowl of boiled rice (this actually happened to someone I know). In the latter scenario, one does tend to miss out on the mutual bonding over delicious food. Yep, you\u2019ve managed to spend time with your friends over food and drink whilst sticking to your guns, but the feeling of isolation is inevitable. You stick out like a sore thumb, doing nothing to promote the many benefits of the vegan diet.\nOf course, the mere refusal to part-take in eating many foods that are so readily accepted and consumed in our culture, and remain quiet in conversations regarding how amazing bacon is, can create unwanted tension, too. Being vegan, even if the topic is never discussed, makes some very bold statements \u2013 you are conscientiously objecting to some very \u201cnormal\u201d aspects of western life. It\u2019s no wonder that some omnivores can get very defensive, even when never provoked. In turn, veg*ans can become known as smug, self-righteous and obnoxious, in responding to that defensiveness. As I touched on earlier, I now have some emotional investment in my choices. I\u2019ve watched the slaughterhouse videos, and I\u2019ve worked directly with rescued farm animals with horrendous backstories. So it\u2019s not even the non-veggies being ridiculous in the first place \u2013 I DO feel quite disgusted by the idea of meat now, as well as dairy and eggs (albeit to a lesser extent). And I really wish I didn\u2019t, because I don\u2019t want to push away my friends and family. It\u2019s quite conflicting, as you can imagine.\nTo get around this, you might suggest to your friends to try a vegetarian or vegan place next time. Problem fixed, right? Omnivores can eat vegan food, and these places inevitably cater well for other dietary requirements, such as gluten-free. Unfortunately, this doesn\u2019t tend to go down well with meat eaters; if you\u2019re lucky enough that you\u2019re not with \u201cif it\u2019s not meat then it\u2019s not food\u201d company, I think visits to places like this can trigger a defensive mechanism in omnivores. After all, they\u2019re in a place where they might feel like they\u2019re in the \u201coutgroup\u201d, to speak in social psychological terms, as a non-vegan in a veggie establishment. Their ingroup identity, as a non-veggie, is very salient as a result. They might be open minded and accept that meat doesn\u2019t have to be in everything, but why should they be forced to not have the usual choices? What is all this strange food? It\u2019s up to her if she wants to make life awkward for herself, why inflict it upon others? This is a bit of a presumption, but these are the experiences I\u2019ve had thus far. Furthermore, I used to be exactly like this. I remember meeting a girl in a youth hostel in Madrid back in 2006, who dragged me and my friend to a vegetarian place, not stating it was all-veggie until we were in there. I felt incredibly indignant about it. If you don\u2019t identify as a vegan, then \u201cvegan food\u201d is not for you to eat. This notion is supported by a great number of food retailers, who are frequently reluctant to label their food as \u201csuitable for vegans\u201d (even though it most definitely is), because it might \u201cput people off.\u201d\nSince giving up animal products, I often have to remind myself of this mentality, but it is hard \u2013 surely if one is not a vegan they can still eat and enjoy vegan food? Don\u2019t they realise that by not eating meat, and by extension, dairy and eggs, even in just one sitting, they are making choices beneficial to animals, their health, and the environment? But this is just it \u2013 if they fully took on board your reasons for living the way that you do, then they would most likely be making the same choices all round. And that\u2019s not to say \u201cthey just don\u2019t realise how right I am\u201d (which I acknowledge this entry is dangerously close to implying). I\u2019m perfectly open to the fact that my choices may be based on a worse picture of the farming industry than it actually is \u2013 I even HOPE this is the case. I\u2019d love to be wrong. This is where a lot of veg*ans fail miserably \u2013 I\u2019ve read numerous times comments such as \u201ceating meat is not a personal choice\u201d. As much as there is some grounding to this, it is an utterly ridiculous notion and does veganism more harm than good. Of course it\u2019s a personal choice \u2013 eating meat is well practised in our culture and is completely legal. The minute you tell someone it\u2019s not, are they going to throw up their hands and say, \u201coh sorry, you\u2019re completely right\u201d or ignore you and defriend you on Facebook later? Both might seem extreme outcomes, but I would place money on the latter.\nAs well as the therapeutic nature in ranting about these unforeseen drawbacks of veganism, I\u2019d like to think this entry might open one\u2019s mind to the \u201cother side of the fence,\u201d whichever end it is you sit on. Omnivores: you might want to consider that consuming less animal products could be a beneficial thing, understanding that as consumers we are the ones that hold the power to change practices when it comes to animal welfare. You could perhaps give vegan food a go, even if you don\u2019t identify as one. It\u2019s still food. Vegans: respect the choices of others. Not everyone holds animal welfare in the same regard, and whilst you might not personally agree, some \u201canimal h8ers\u201d might still be very caring and compassionate people, putting other humans before themselves and applying morality in all aspects of their lives. It\u2019s a different perspective, and it\u2019s not necessarily wrong. I personally care a lot less about people and I\u2019d thank you not to judge me for it.\nI really hope these issues will be a thing of the past one day. I don\u2019t think a world will exist where we all hold hands and sing, with soya beans growing where the cattle once grazed. However, veganism (as a diet, at least) will hopefully become prominent enough for restaurants to cater for it (properly), and veg*ism is perceived as something as normal as disliking the taste of Marmite \u2013 you won\u2019t be seen as some sort of outcast for it. In turn, whilst meat will still be on the menu, vegan options will be so prominent in our culture that even omnivores will opt for it \u2013 not necessarily for ethical reasons \u2013 but because it\u2019s great food, valid in its own right.\nThis entry was posted on April 13, 2013 at 1:52 pm and is filed under Veganism with tags social, veganism.\tYou can follow any responses to this entry through the RSS 2.0 feed. You can leave a response, or trackback from your own site.\nOne Response to \u201cThe Social Downsides to Veganism\u201d\nExcellent write-up. I think most vegans around the world can relate to the social stigma of being an \u201coutsider\u201d, if you will, by actively challenging society\u2019s norms.\nYou\u2019ve come a long way and learned a lot from it. Your ability to find a \u201cmiddle ground\u201d which fits being able to discuss veganism with others, but at the same time keep yourself, for want of a better word \u2013 sane, is admirable. I think a lot of people can learn from this attitude.\nKeep doing what you\u2019re doing. :)",

        "raw_content": "Two of the most popular buzzwords in the world we are living in today are data management and data security. This is actually where computerized maintenance management rules. CMMS or computerized maintenance management systems are the systems that are very good and are actually used for the maintenance and the storage of data. Two such important systems for example are SAP and ERP.\nThe management of database of information that has to do with an organization's management operations and an organization's data maintenance is usually done by these systems that are ERP and SAP as we have mentioned them above. ERP and SAP are software packages that are used by many people as they have a lot of functions and uses to them. It is very good to learn about them so that you can utilize their uses to the fullest especially if you own an organization, a company or literally any kind of business that uses this kind of technology. ERP and SAP are software packages that are not only used in the management of database information like we have seen above but they are also used for keeping track of the various jobs and work orders which is also known as preventive maintenance, controlling the inventory, managing the assets of a company or an organization or for taking work orders.\nFacility manager is a new software that you need to know of. You may be wondering what facility manager has to do with computerized maintenance management. This software is a solution to control other maintenance management systems and is also a very important maintenance management system that is also paperless. This software is used to increase the efficiency at work and also to simplify tasks at hand in order to maximize productivity in help desks and it is also used in call center businesses.\nYou can use a computerized maintenance management system as an accounting system and also to help you to determine your costs and liabilities. Some of these software that are the computerized maintenance management systems come with more advanced and more sophisticated features which will usually be at a price and some of them come with usual features.\nWhen you want to get a computerized maintenance management system you can visit a store that stores computers or even visit your local retail software stores. The program must be preloaded with biomedical procedures and mechanical procedures. Make sure that you purchase the software from a very trusted and reputable vendor.

        "raw_content": "3 Reasons Your Dog Should Be Properly Socialized\nDogs may not be able to talk but they certainly communicate in their own way. And, all dogs love to play and interact with other dogs and people. Socialization is an important activity for any dog, regardless of breed and age. In fact, not only is it important for a happy life, but it is actually important for the health of your dog. Socializing your dog means introducing them to many new environments including dogs, people, new environments, and new circumstances and should be done as soon as possible. Below are 3 reasons your dog should be properly socialized.\nWhen a dog is socialized from birth or as soon as possible, they will feel more confident with a variety of people and settings. When a dog feels confident and secure, they do not exhibit signs of fear or anxiety which means they will be better behaved. Many dogs who feel insecure in settings like dog boarding, meeting new people, meeting new dogs, or going to the veterinarian either cower or become aggressive. Aggressive dogs are hard to handle in healthcare settings and frightening for other dogs or people to deal with so having confidence from being socialized will help them live a much better life.\nBecause a dog has been socialized and has learned that they are ok in new or varied settings, they are far more likely to be calm and collected. This will make it easier for you to take them places, have new people to your home, etc. For example, if you need to go out of town the last thing you want is to take them to a dog boarding facility where they become frightened, aggressive, and hyperactive because they are not used to being in new places. This is not only frustrating but bad for their health, asPetMD points out, \u201cPoorly socialized dogs are fearful of unusual or new circumstances. This sets off neurological signals that result in hormone secretion by various glands in the body. Adrenalin hormones increase heart and respiration rates and blood pressure in anticipation of \u201cfight or flight.\u201d Corticosteroid hormones also contribute to heart rate and blood pressure. They also increase awareness and responses. But corticosteroids also decrease blood flow to the kidneys and intestines, promote muscle breakdown, and suppress immune system function.It is these consequences that lead to stress related conditions in poorly socialized dogs that are frequently engaged in stressful situations. The addition of children to the household, frequent show and event competition, frequent grooming, and daycare and boarding can all cause chronic stress hormone release for poorly socialized dogs and affect their health.\u201d Because your dog has been properly socialized, they will be able to adjust to new settings in a far more calm way.\nNo dog owner wants to see their beloved dog sad or scared. There are many happy circumstances that, simply because they are new, a dog may be upset by. When your dog has experienced many different circumstances, people, pets and settings, they will be able to adjust more easily and enjoy their day to day life. Things like playdates or going to the dog park would have otherwise been stressful but now they can happily enjoy their life and play time!",

        "raw_content": "Manufacturers are gung-ho for 2019 \u2014 for good reason\nBy Chad Moutray, opinion contributor \u2014 01/08/19 07:00 AM EST\nThe new year is usually a time for new beginnings. However, when the clock struck midnight this New Year\u2019s Eve, at least two things stayed unchanged: The government remained partially closed, and manufacturing remained on a positive march.\nThis would seem to contradict some of the more dire predictions for business and our economy we\u2019ve heard lately, but when I travel around the country, meeting with manufacturing leaders, they often tell me about how good business is right now.\nSales are up, hiring is robust, the overall outlook is strong, and \u2014 with the right policies out of Washington in 2019 \u2014 we can help ensure things remain this way.\nManufacturing has been a bright spot in the economy over the past few years. 2018 marked the strongest year of manufacturing job growth since 1997, with the economy adding nearly 24,000 manufacturing jobs per month on average, including 32,000 in December.\nMoreover, the most recent quarterly Manufacturers\u2019 Outlook Survey from the National Association of Manufacturers (NAM) showed 2018 as the best year ever for manufacturer optimism.\nToday, about nine in 10 manufacturers are optimistic about the future, and other sentiment releases have reflected similarly positive assessments. Manufacturing leaders feel upbeat about future growth in new orders, output and employment.\nWhy is this? A primary driving factor has been a new attitude out of Washington in recent years. Rather than putting their foot on the economic brakes, Washington officials decided instead to help our economy grow with policies like tax and regulatory reform.\nThe U.S. economy will likely have expanded by 2.9 percent in 2018 once the new year-end data is released, the fastest pace since 2005, according to my estimates, with a fourth quarter reading of 2.6 percent. Moreover, there are more job openings in the United States than people actively looking for work.\nAccordingly, manufacturing\u2019s top problem in recent quarters has been that there are more manufacturing jobs (more than 500,000) than there are enough skilled workers to fill them. For the fifth consecutive quarter, manufacturers cited the workforce crisis as their top concern in the latest NAM\u2019s Manufacturers\u2019 Outlook Survey.\nMore than three in four manufacturers reported having unfilled positions at their company that they were struggling to fill. This workforce crisis is a real problem, and organizations like the NAM and its social impact and workforce arm, The Manufacturing Institute, are working hard to solve it.\nThere are other economic headwinds on the horizon as well. Financial markets began 2019 much as they ended 2018 \u2014 with a lot of volatility.\nIn addition, daily headlines continue to stress slower global growth and downside risks for this year, and there is some sense that businesses are hesitating on some investments due to economic uncertainties, including trade tensions, rising interest rates and even the partial government shutdown.\nWhile all those concerns pose challenges to the U.S. economy, it is important to keep it all in perspective. For the most part, the forecasts for this year call for slowing, not declining, growth in real GDP, and while the risk of a downturn rises as the year progresses, a recession is not necessarily in the cards for 2019.\nFor instance, I would peg the risk of a recession over the next 12 months at around 20 percent, increasing to about 40 percent by year\u2019s end and into 2020. Those chances are not insignificant, but they also suggest that a recession is not imminent.\nSo, here\u2019s a reality check. In short, despite some challenges, the overall picture for manufacturing and our economy remains largely positive. Policymakers\u2019 challenge now is to keep this momentum going.\nAccording to manufacturers in the United States, that means, as a next step, approving the U.S.\u2013Mexico\u2013Canada Agreement (USMCA), which our latest survey shows an overwhelming majority of manufacturers in America support.\nWith additional reforms to the tax code and regulatory system, bold infrastructure investment and a sound trade policy \u2014 and, of course, getting the government back up and running with a solution both sides can agree to \u2014 we can keep on a positive track and build on the strong job and wage growth over the past two years.\nChad Moutray is the chief economist for the National Association of Manufacturers.\nTags Manufacturing in the United States National Association of Manufacturers Manufacturing Economy of the United States United States market volatility S&P Dow Jones Indices Recession",

        "title": "Face Recognition Is Now Being Used in Schools, but It Won\u2019t Stop Mass Shootings",
        "raw_content": "Photo: iStockphoto/Getty ImagesPhoto: iStockphoto/Getty Images\nFace Recognition Is Now Being Used in Schools, but It Won\u2019t Stop Mass Shootings\nOfficials at the Lockport, New York, school district have purchased face recognition technology as part of a purported effort to prevent school shootings. Starting in September, all 10 of Lockport District\u2019s school buildings, just north of Buffalo, will be outfitted with a surveillance system that can identify faces and objects. The software, known as Aegis, was developed by SN Technologies Corp., a Canadian biometrics firm that specifically advertises to schools. It can be used to alert officials to whenever sex offenders, suspended students, fired employees, suspected gang members, or anyone else placed on a school\u2019s \u201cblacklist\u201d enters the premises. Aegis also sends alerts any time one of the \u201ctop 10\u201d most popular guns used in school shootings appears in view of a camera.\nThe district is spending most of its recent $4 million state \u201cSmart School\u201d grant on these and other enhancements to its security systems, including bullet-proof greeter windows and a mass notification system, according to the Niagra Gazette. \u201cWe always have to be on our guard. We can\u2019t let our guard down,\u201d Lockport Superintendent Michelle T. Bradley told the Buffalo News. \u201cFor the Board of Education and the Lockport City School District, this is the No. 1 priority: school security.\u201d\nYet given the nature of gun violence at schools, Lockport\u2019s purchase of surveillance technology appears inefficient and expensive. All of the major school shootings in the last five years in the U.S. have been carried out by current students or alumnae of the school in question. \u201cThese are students for whom the school wouldn\u2019t have a reason to have their face entered into the face recognition system\u2019s blacklist,\u201d explained Rachel Levinson-Waldman, a security and policing expert at the Brennan Center for Justice.\nThe object recognition system seems similarly pointless, she said. Most shooters don\u2019t brandish their guns before opening fire; and by the time they do, an object-detection algorithm that could specify the exact type of weapon they\u2019re firing would not be of much use. As Jim Shultz, a Lockport parent, pointed out to the Buffalo News, the technology would give a school, at best, only a few extra seconds in response time to a shooting. What\u2019s more, most shootings typically end within seconds \u2014 so that face or weapon recognition would provide about as much real-time value as a 911 call. Lockport schools, Shultz added, have already instituted preventative \u2014 albeit less flashy \u2014 measures, such as keeping doors locked and requiring visitors to check in.\nBecause face recognition appears uniquely ill-suited to respond directly to school shootings \u2014 which are themselves statistically rare events \u2014 privacy experts fear that the primary function of the technology will be to expand the surveillance and criminalization of adolescents. \u201cWhether it was intended to be this way or not, Lockport\u2019s technology is effectively going to be a surveillance system and not a safety system,\u201d Levinson-Waldman said.\nLearning While Black\nLockport\u2019s system will store data for up to 60 days. Students will not be automatically entered into its database, but administrators will be able to use the system to \u201cfollow\u201d those who commit infractions. \u201cIf we had a student who committed some type of offense against the code of conduct, we can follow that student throughout the day to see maybe who they interacted with,\u201d one school official said.\nLevinson-Waldman says that such surveillance powers are likely to be wielded disproportionately against students of color, who already face disciplinary bias at school. Several studies have shown that black and Latino children are routinely viewed as more dangerous than their white peers, regardless of their behavior. Black students are not more likely to misbehave than white students, yet they are more likely to be suspended, receive corporal punishment, or have a school-related arrest, according to a Government Accountability Office report released in April.\n\u201cThis is going to exacerbate the racial disparities you already see, whether it\u2019s about monitoring or enforcement,\u201d said John Cusick, a fellow at the NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund. Students who are already subject to police surveillance in their neighborhoods, he added, will now have to face the same environment at their school. Research by the NAACP LDF and others suggests that putting police officers in schools increases the number of students who end up incarcerated for harmless incidents. \u201cFace recognition might curtail how students interact. They might be afraid of being linked to other students or engaging in adolescent behavior,\u201d Cusick continued. \u201cIt has the ability to criminalize friendships.\u201d\nCivil rights attorneys raised questions about whether biometric data collected at schools like Lockport might fuel not only the school-to-prison pipeline, but also deportations. Schools might share their biometric data with law enforcement and, in turn, with Immigration and Customs Enforcement \u2014 or vice versa. In California and New Jersey, ICE has arrested undocumented parents as they dropped their kids off at school, and ICE was recently granted access to at least one automatic license plate reader database. Levinson-Waldman wonders which faces will be put into the system to flag a response and whether schools will connect to a law enforcement database. \u201cWill they give ICE information about that parent\u2019s movements, intentionally or not?\u201d she asked.\nRoyal Palms Middle School eighth-grade students Nicole Johnson, left, Morgan Johnson, center, and Devon Rood talk near one of the schools two facial recognition cameras in Phoenix, Ariz., on Dec. 16, 2003. The school is the first in the country to use the system that was installed to identify sex offenders that may enter the school\u2019s building.\nPhoto: Jeff Topping/Getty Images\nLockport is not the first school district to deploy the kind of advanced surveillance technology typically used by prisons, airports, and border checkpoints. Face recognition has already been installed in high schools in Magnolia, Arkansas, and St. Louis. A school district in New Mexico deploys shot-spotter technology, which notifies police at the first sound of gunfire, while another district in New York has acquired automatic license plate readers. In Iowa and Texas, among others, school districts have equipped law enforcement and school resource officers with body-worn cameras. \u201cThis is part of a bigger trend of school districts, as well as police departments, touting cost-benefit savings in the name of expanding surveillance,\u201d Cusick noted.\nPrivacy advocates are also concerned about the kind of lessons that early, invasive surveillance teaches students about the society we live in. \u201cCommunities and schools need to think hard about what type [of] message they are sending to our kids when they monitor them in school like they were prisoners in a detention facility,\u201d Rita Sklar, executive director of the American Civil Liberties Union of Arkansas, said in a statement. \u201cWe urge the Magnolia School Board, and all Arkansas school districts, to avoid these expensive, harmful gimmicks and consider more sensible approaches to keeping schools safe.\u201d\nOf course, these surveillance systems do not come cheaply \u2014 and it\u2019s possible that companies will make money from the data they collect from students. \u201cI would be shocked if a vendor was not going to use video as a way to train and \u2018improve\u2019 the algorithm,\u201d said Philip Hagen, a technologist who went to school in Lockport. \u201cThat\u2019s inherent in any machine learning operation. From an ethical standpoint, I would definitely be concerned about that.\u201d It is not evident who owns the data, how long it is retained, and whether parents have a right to opt-out of the system.\nThe technology\u2019s cost becomes particularly troubling when one considers that it may not even work. Some facial recognition software performs poorly. U.K. police made headlines recently when documents revealed that one system in Wales turned up false matches 92 percent of the time. In particular, the technology is more prone to err when dealing with black faces, as several studies have shown. In one of the most recent, MIT Media Lab researcher Joy Buolamwini showed that darker-skinned women were up to 35 percent more likely to be misrecognized by some face recognition algorithms. Other studies have shown that the technology is less effective on children. Hagen and Levinson-Waldman have asked whether the technology will be independently audited for accuracy.\nBy investing in this technology, as opposed to other resources, Levinson-Waldman says that schools are emphasizing policing at the expense of teaching. As the Buffalo News reported, the Lockport District may face a shortfall of nearly $1 million in the 2018-2019 school year. If aid does not materialize, it is possible that the district will \u201ccut transportation and sports programs, reduce kindergarten to half days and close elementary school libraries.\u201d\n\u201cIn a time when we cannot afford to pay our teachers a decent wage,\u201d said Andrew Ferguson, a policing and civil rights expert, \u201cI cannot fathom any school district paying money for this type of security theater.\u201d\nTop photo: Video security camera housing mounted high on college campus.",

        "raw_content": "If you are suffering from high cholesterol, one of the first things you need to do is lower the LDL cholesterol levels in your body.\nLDL or low-density lipoprotein is known as bad cholesterol. You need less LDL and more high-density lipoprotein (HDL) in your bloodstream to stay healthy.\nUnderstanding the difference is important because cholesterol is something that your body actually needs. Not all cholesterol is bad. The soft, waxy material is found among the lipids or fats in your bloodstream and also in all the cells in your body.\nIt plays an essential role in keeping you alive because it helps to form cell membranes, many hormones and other essential life functions. It is only when you have high cholesterol levels called hypercholesterolemia that you should really start to worry because this can lead to coronary heart disease, which can put you at risk of a fatal heart attack or stroke.\nThat is why it is important to reduce your bad LDL levels and keep them to a reasonable count. If you want to lower your LDL, you will need to have a balanced diet, do regular exercises and take supplements \u2013 the latter being the most important component. You can start by drinking less alcohol. And as part of your balanced diet, decreasing the amount of fatty foods you eat is required.\nEat foods that are rich in beans, nuts, peas, barley, oat, whole grains and rice bran and try to cut back on animal products and fats. To keep cholesterol levels low, your daily fat intake should not reach more than 30% of your diet. Also make sure that they are the good fats (monounsaturated fats and polyunsaturated fats). You should also eat more fish, as it is high in omega-3 fatty acids. This balanced diet is an effective way to lower your blood pressure too.\nTo complement your diet, exercise comes next. Regular exercise can help decrease LDL and increase HDL in your body. Though it may not directly lower cholesterol, exercise can strengthen your heart and its circulatory system. It will also improve your blood flow, so that excess fats can be removed faster. A healthy lifestyle, a balanced diet and regular exercises are all keys that can contribute to lower LDL levels.\nBut taking supplements can greatly improve your success. It is recommended to take supplements that contain ingredients such as policosanol, phytosterols, lecithin oil, D-limonene and theaflavins. These are all beneficial ingredients that can help to balance your cholesterol levels.\nPolicosanol, extracted from beeswax and sugar cane, is very effective in lowering your LDL, while increasing HDL. It has also been shown to remove plaque build up from the walls of your arteries. Meanwhile, the antioxidant theaflavin will help fight off dangerous free radicals from forming in your body.\nThis powerful antioxidant can be mostly found in green tea. D-limonene is effective in dissolving cholesterol-ridden gallstones. The combination of the above ingredients is the most effective way how to lower LDL cholesterol levels. Even better, they are all natural ingredients that have no adverse side effects.\nJohn L. Johnson is passionate about good health, healthy living and only using natural cholesterol reduction supplements to keep his heart and body in top condition.

        "raw_content": "John Correll said he feels strongly about being of service to the City of Linton and the Linton community and equally strong that if elected, he can make a difference.\n\u201cI am not a typical politician, and that\u2019s not a bad thing. I am running for mayor to lead us back to a path of restoration and prosperity,\u201d Correll said.\nCorrell says he is prepared both mentally and physically to lead the change that Linton needs.\n\u201cIf elected, I plan to achieve clear objectives that will benefit our citizens and community, with integrity, honesty, and in step with the public,\u201d Correll said.\nIf elected, Correll said he will be focused on serving Linton\u2019s citizens as their mayor.\n\u201cThis means keeping the neighborhoods safe, streets maintained, and eliminating abandoned properties. I will focus on providing services our citizens expect and deserve. And I will ensure action plans are developed and implemented that will restore our infrastructure, including our streets, drainage systems, sewers and fire hydrants.\n\u201cI will treat city workers fairly and without bias. My administration will be transparent and accountable.\nI\u2019m also very interested in workforce development and creating jobs. But the mayor can only influence business development,\u201d Correll said.\n\u201cIf elected, I plan to achieve clear objectives that will benefit our citizens and community, with integrity, honesty, and in step with the public.\u201d \u2013 John Correll\nFor Correll, the greatest issue facing the Linton community is a lack of leadership in the planning and actual implementation of actions that will increase prosperity in term of jobs and living conditions, budgets, and infrastructure.\n\u201cThere has been a lot of talk about these things, but little to show for it. Without our Linton utilities, I\u2019m convinced we would be bankrupt. Unless we greatly improve our city government\u2019s efficiency, there will be dark days ahead,\u201d Correll said.\nAccording to Correll, changing the path the city is on is to re-focus on the needs of the Linton community.\n\u201cI feel very passionate about the needs of our senior citizens. I envision a more senior-friendly city that supports a quality of life they deserve.\n\u201cI propose an active, easily accessible senior citizen center for example. Also, Linton needs to desperately review the nursing home situation,\u201d Correll said.\nCorrell said if elected, he wants more focus on the youth of Linton, to ensure that they have the same opportunities that others have had to develop the necessary values that will guide them through life.\nIn terms of tourism, Correll said Linton has the potential to greatly expand tourism.\n\u201cWe are blessed with a wonderful, nationally recognized, natural habitat in the Goose Pond, and we need to focus on developing it to its fullest potential. A modern convention center would attract new growth,\u201d Correll said.\nCorrell cites Linton\u2019s spirit of volunteerism as an exceptional quality.\n\u201cWe need to focus better on the efforts and results of both individuals and organizations that are actively working hard to restore Linton to better times.\n\u201cAll of these things represent true opportunities for jobs and the financial health of our community,\u201d Correll said.\nCorrell said his approach to becoming a better candidate and potential mayor will be to openly seek feedback from his fellow citizens in developing his ideas and vision.\n\u201cI will also seek to develop a deeper understanding of the many issues as they affect the lives of our citizens,\u201d he said.\nCorrell, 65, is known in his professional life as \u201cJC,\u201d but he is comfortable being called John.\nThe Correll family has been continually in business in Linton for 94 years \u2014 since 1921.\nCorrell is membe\nr of the First Baptist Church of Linton where he serves on the board of trustees and was baptized in 1966. He is also on the board of directors for Pregnancy Choices and serves as a male mentor.\nCorrell has been married to his wife Nancy for the last 47 years. He has two sons, and grandsons.\nCorrell was both born and raised in Linton, and he is a graduate of Linton-Stockton High School with the Class of 1968.\nAfter high school, Correll enlisted in the U.S. Navy, and later studied at Indiana State University.\n\u201cI graduated in three years with dual majors: Safety Management, and Environment Health. Later, I studied at the University of Indianapolis, graduating with a Masters in Business Administration. I have completed numerous courses in leadership, human resources, organizational development and management,\u201d Correll said.\nCorrell spent 27 years in the private mining industry after returning from the Navy.\nFrom 1975-80, he worked at Peabody Coal Company in Indiana and Arizona where he held the positions of manager and lead safety supervisor.\nFrom 1980-91, Correll worked at AMAX Coal Industries in Indianapolis where he held the positions of Manager-Safety and Health in the Midwest Division, and Corporate Director\u2013Safety and Health.\nFrom 1991-2002, Correll took a position at Cleveland \u2013 Cliffs Inc. in Cleveland, Ohio, where he worked as Corporate Director\u2013Safety, Health and Workers\u2019 Compensation.\nCorrell then worked 12 years in the federal government, working for the U.S. Department of Labor from 2002 until 2014 where he held a variety of positions including: Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) Deputy Assistant Secretary-Operations, Employment Standards Administration (ESA) Deputy Assistant Secretary\u2013Operations, and Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) Director\u2013Office of Employee Safety and Health.\nAfter retiring in 2014, Correll took a position at Optimum Safety Performance, LLC, as the principal consultant, holding the position of senior operations executive.\nAccording to Correll, Optimum Safety Performance (OSP) provides professional safety management consultation that offers a proven pathway for good companies to become great companies.\nCorrell said as a result of his education and career, he has unique and valuable experiences that are seldom, if ever, seen in candidates for the mayor\u2019s office.\n\u201cWhile I\u2019m not a political pundit, I am an effective leader. I feel strongly about certain beliefs \u2014 faith, family, integrity, honesty, and the role of government,\u201d Correll said.\nCorrell said he has enjoyed a successful career by collecting and studying the facts, team building, gaining consensus, and mobilizing commitment to reach mutually satisfying goals and objectives.\n\u201cMy career experiences combined with these leadership skills are what my campaign is based upon: Experience and Leadership \u2013 A Clear Choice,\u201d Correll said.\nCorrell is the Republican candidate for mayor.\nPrevious Election Preview of the race for Linton Clerk-Treasurer: Jathan Wright [GCDW]\nNext Election Preview of Linton Mayoral Race: John Wilkes [GCDW]",

From the 24th of October until the 27th of January, the Cin\u00e9math\u00e8que fran\u00e7aise presents a masterpiece classified at the UNESCO World Heritage . Written by Jacques Pr\u00e9vert, it is one of the most famous French movies in the world.\nPunctuated by numerous film excerpts, the exhibition will present original documents such as posters, drawings, production stills, publicity materials, costumes, cameras, stereoscopic views, assorted objects, scripts, correspondence, models, rushes, props.

        "raw_content": "Our Teacher Training Program instructs educators on how to incorporate Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) competencies into their classrooms. It provides a detailed curriculum, including instructions and exercises, that prepare them to teach Healthy Relationships 101 to their students. A key aspect of the program focuses on learning how to express one's needs and feelings without blame and judgment and to listen empathically.\nThrough this training, educators learn communication skills and practices that foster the students\u2019 ability to engage in healthy inter-relating. It also provides teachers with insight into their students\u2019 needs and feelings with particular emphasis on how modern culture affects their relationships and self-esteem.\nThis program includes printed materials, handouts, and resources that promote respectful communication skills and behavior. These skills benefit communication between students, parents, administrators, and fellow teachers.\nWe also work with various organizations that serve communities in need. Training is available for professionals in social service agencies and organizations. The Relationship Foundation has provided training and resources to mental health providers, social workers, and prison counselors. Our guidebook based on our curriculum has found its way into domestic violence shelters, mental health clinics, and drug rehab centers. Our guidebook is now in use at a victim advocacy center at an army base in Fort Jackson, South Carolina.\nWe equip facilitators with communication skills through these workshops, enabling them to motivate and engage their clients in new and more productive ways.",

The artisans of type and silver screen foretold of flying cars, food in pill form, and a world engulfing metropolis of ominous ziggurats. But of all these failed promises, fashion was by far the most disappointing.\nWhere\u2019s the endless sea of grey exoskeleton bodysuits? Where\u2019s my geometric second skin? I was so looking forward to an inexhaustible selection of neopreen outfits. Alternately, we seem to be stuck in a loop of recycling the past. Instead of space suits and rocket shoes, we have bell bottoms and sweatbands.\nPlease world, I am pleading with you, do not bring back the eighties.

I suppose it\u2019s because making oversized saggy t-shirts and brightly coloured leggings is cheaper and easier than making complex, interesting, well fitting clothing \u2013 and everyone looks just as bad as each other in it (so you don\u2019t have to have any fashion sense to shop for it).\nMind you \u2013 I\u2019m the worst kind of commentor \u2013 I\u2019m not exactly a paragon of cutting edge fashion myself.

        "raw_content": "Sec. Clinton To UN: \u2018Gay Rights Are Human Rights, And Human Rights Are Gay Rights\u2019\nIgor Volsky, Zack Ford Twitter Dec 6, 2011, 6:22 pm\nRecognizing that America\u2019s own record on LGBT equality is \u201cfar from perfect,\u201d Secretary of State Hillary Clinton called on nations around the world to recognize that \u201cgay rights are human rights and human rights are gay rights,\u201d during a speech in Geneva, Switzerland this afternoon. Clinton\u2019s address builds on a memorandum President Obama issued earlier today directing all agencies to \u201cpromote and protect the human rights of LGBT persons.\u201d\nClinton also announced that the administration is launching a $3 million global equality fund to support the work of civil society organizations working on these issues around the world. The fund will help human rights groups \u201crecord facts so they can target their advocacy, learn how to use the law as a tool, manage their budgets, train their staffs and forge partnerships with women\u2019s organizations and other Human Rights groups,\u201d Clinton said.\nSome highlights from the speech:\n\u2013 \u201cLike being a woman, like being a racial religious tribal or ethnic minority, being LGBT does not make you less human. And that is why gay rights are Human Rights and Human Rights are gay rights.\u201d\n\u2013 \u201cWell, in reality, gay people are born into and belong to every society in the world. They are all ages, all races, all faiths; they are doctors and teachers, farmers and bankers, soldiers and athletes, and whether we know it or whether we acknowledge it, they are our family, our friends and our neighbors.\u201d\n\u2013 \u201cSome believe homosexuality is a Western phenomenon\u2026 but gay people belong to every society in the world\u2026. Being gay is not a Western invention, it is a human reality.\u201d\n\u2013 \u201cIn all countries, there are costs to not protecting these rights, in both gay and straight lives lost to disease and violence and the silencing of voices and views that would strengthen communities and ideas never pursued by entrepreneurs who happen to be gay. Costs are incurred whenever any group is treated as lesser or the other whether they are women, racial or religious minorities or the LGBT.\u201d\n\u2013 \u201cOur commitment to protect the freedom of religion and defend LGBT people come from a common source\u2026 Human rights are universal and cut across all religions and cultures.\u201d\n\u2013 \u201cIt should never be a crime to be gay.\u201d\n\u2013 \u201cTo LGBT men and women worldwide: Wherever you live and whatever your circumstances\u2026 please know that you are not alone.\u201d\n\u2013 \u201cThose who advocate for expanding the circle of human rights were and are on the right side of history, and history honors them\u2026 We are called once more to make real the words of the universal declaration. Let us be on the right side of history.\u201d\nFull transcript and video of Clinton\u2019s speech:\nCLINTON: Good evening, and let me express my deep honor and pleasure at being here. I want to thank Director General Tokayev and Ms. Wyden along with other ministers, ambassadors, excellencies, and UN partners. This weekend, we will celebrate Human Rights Day, the anniversary of one of the great accomplishments of the last century.\nNow, we must go further and work here and in every region of the world to galvanize more support for the human rights of the LGBT community. To the leaders of those countries where people are jailed, beaten, or executed for being gay, I ask you to consider this: Leadership, by definition, means being out in front of your people when it is called for. It means standing up for the dignity of all your citizens and persuading your people to do the same. It also means ensuring that all citizens are treated as equals under your laws, because let me be clear\u200a\u2014\u200aI am not saying that gay people can\u2019t or don\u2019t commit crimes. They can and they do, just like straight people. And when they do, they should be held accountable, but it should never be a crime to be gay.\nAnd to people of all nations, I say supporting human rights is your responsibility too. The lives of gay people are shaped not only by laws, but by the treatment they receive every day from their families, from their neighbors. Eleanor Roosevelt, who did so much to advance human rights worldwide, said that these rights begin in the small places close to home\u200a\u2014\u200athe streets where people live, the schools they attend, the factories, farms, and offices where they work. These places are your domain. The actions you take, the ideals that you advocate, can determine whether human rights flourish where you are.\nI know that the thoughts I\u2019ve shared today involve questions on which opinions are still evolving. As it has happened so many times before, opinion will converge once again with the truth, the immutable truth, that all persons are created free and equal in dignity and rights. We are called once more to make real the words of the Universal Declaration. Let us answer that call. Let us be on the right side of history, for our people, our nations, and future generations, whose lives will be shaped by the work we do today. I come before you with great hope and confidence that no matter how long the road ahead, we will travel it successfully together. Thank you very much. (Applause.)\n#Hillary Clinton, #LGBT, #LGBT Rights, #United Nations",

        "title": "What The Next Execution Tells Us About Childhood Trauma And The Death Penalty \u2013 ThinkProgress",
        "raw_content": "What The Next Execution Tells Us About Childhood Trauma And The Death Penalty\nCarimah Townes Apr 27, 2016, 12:00 pm\nLess than two weeks after executing Kenneth Fults, Georgia is getting ready to lethally inject its fifth death row inmate this year.\nDaniel Anthony Lucas is scheduled to die Wednesday night for the fatal shootings of two children. He doesn\u2019t dispute that he committed the crime. But his story demonstrates how early childhood trauma plays out on death rows across the country today. A substantial number of executions involve people who grew up around substance abuse or grew up in environments where violence and neglect was the norm.\nLucas was 19 years old when he killed three people during a 1998 house burglary. He first targeted an 11-year-old son who saw Lucas from outside the house and tried to stop him with a baseball bat. Lucas shot him several times. When the teenage sister walked into the house later on, Lucas and co-conspirator Brandon Joseph Rhode tied her to a chair and Lucas shot her point blank. Rhodes killed the father when he arrived at the house.\nLucas was arrested days later, waived his Miranda rights, and confessed. After that, Lucas and his defense team tried and failed to link the substance abuse to his traumatic upbringing.\nIn court, Lucas\u2019 attorneys hinged their defense on drugs\u200a\u2014\u200aXanax and Darvocet\u200a\u2014\u200aand alcohol in his system at the time of the murders. According to a psychiatrist who testified on Lucas\u2019 behalf, the killings likely occurred because his judgment was impaired at the time. He explained that Lucas\u2019 \u201crecollection or reasoning, his impulsivity, everything was eroded, almost destroyed.\u201d\nAttorneys tried to make the case that Lucas\u2019 substance abuse problem was the result of lasting childhood trauma. Family members testified that he was raised in a turbulent environment, and watched his parents use crack cocaine, smoke marijuana, and \u201c[drink] excessively\u201d when he was a small boy. The family lived in \u201cabject poverty.\u201d Often, he had to protect his sister when their parents were fighting. And there was sexual abuse in the household, although it is unclear who the victims were.\nDaniel Anthony Lucas CREDIT: Georgia Department of Corrections/AP\nThe jury was unconvinced, and state and federal appeals courts rejected the notion that Lucas was too intoxicated to know what he was doing.\nBut Lucas\u2019 story is shared by many people sentenced to capital punishment throughout the country. They weren\u2019t born hardened, brutal criminals, but made life choices colored by profound trauma.\nA growing body of research shows that childhood violence, neglect, or other kinds of disruptive experiences have lasting impacts on the brain and future behavior. In 2014, a reporter from the Texas Observer distributed a survey to 292 death row inmates in Texas, and more than half of the 41 respondents said they experienced \u201cviolent or abusive\u201d growing up. Nine others reported a negative formative experience, such as parental neglect or living in poverty. In short, trauma impacts brain development.\n\u201cIt\u2019s\u2026clear that not all criminality is the product of childhood abuse,\u201d Frank Ochberg, a psychiatrist and trauma expert, told the publication. \u201cBut these early adverse situations reduce the resilience of human biology and they change us in very fundamental ways. Our brains are altered. And that\u2019s what this research is bearing out.\u201d\nThrough their upbringing, children learn how treat the people around them, Ochberg explained. If they are abused as kids, many normalize violence and resort to violence in the future.\nA death penalty case in Pennsylvania recently triggered discussion about the complicated relationship between childhood trauma and violent crime. Terrance Williams\u2019 entire life has been impacted from the constant abuse he experienced in his childhood and teenage years. In addition to regular beatings at home, Williams grew up with sexual assault as the norm. He was raped at age six and sexually abused and exploited by a teacher in middle school. In high school, he was similarly exploited by at least two older men. Years later, Williams killed two of his abusers and wound up on death row because of it, even though 26 child abuse and sexual assault experts supported his story.\n\u201cTerry was left alone to develop the means to deal with the horrors of his daily life,\u201d child advocates wrote on his behalf. \u201cTerry developed the ability to mask his reality and outwardly portrayed the role of a successful high school student who was respected and for whom there were high hopes. On the inside, Terry suffered in silence. His crimes are an undeniable reflection of this internal suffering and are directly connected to his history of abuse and trauma.\u201d\nAlthough their stories differ, Lucas and Williams were set down a criminal path instead of receiving early intervention and resources to help them cope with their trauma. Many of the people languishing on death row are in the same position.\nThe National Institute of Justice study concluded that kids subjected to physical violence, sexual violence, or neglect were more likely to commit delinquent offenses and go on to commit violent crimes as adults. An American Psychological Association study also found that \u201csevere and multiple forms of abuse were endemic in this sample\u201d of 43 death row inmates. Forty-one reported being physically abused as a child and 80 percent of the group were witnesses of violence. All of them said they were neglected and nearly all of them came from families with substance abuse problems.\n#Criminal Justice, #Death Penalty, #Georgia, #Justice",

        "title": "Russian President Vladimir Putin, Japanese PM Shinzo Abe hold summit to break island impasse - Times of India",
        "raw_content": "Russian President Vladimir Putin, Japanese PM Shinzo Abe hold summit to break island impasse\nMOSCOW: Russia and Japan's leaders meet for talks in Moscow Tuesday over the disputed island chain that has long prevented a peace treaty to end World War II. But recent rhetoric has dampened hopes of a breakthrough.\nJapanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe's visit marks the 25th time he and Russian President Vladimir Putin have met since 2013, a reflection of their efforts to build cooperation despite their disagreement over the Kuril islands.\nThe Soviet Army seized the four islands, between the Sea of Okhotsk and the Pacific Ocean, in the last days of World War II.\nTokyo's refusal to recognise Moscow's sovereignty there has been a barrier to peace for over seven decades.\nDespite a flurry of diplomacy since November, when the two leaders agreed to step up peace talks, recent statements from both capitals suggest a compromise is still far off.\nMoscow responded furiously to Abe's New Year's message, in which he said Russians living on the islands should be helped to accept that the \"sovereignty of their homes will change\".\nLast week, Russian foreign minister Sergei Lavrov said Japan needed to stop referring to the islands as its \"Northern Territories\" in legislation. He also described Tokyo's military alliance with Washington as problematic.\nTo get the talks moving, Tokyo needed to recognise Russia's sovereignty over the Kurils, said Lavrov.\n\"Why is Japan the only country in the world that cannot accept the results of World War II in their entirety?\" he asked.\nAnd on Monday, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said the peace negotiations were \"in their initial stage\" and would likely be a \"drawn out\" process -- further cooling hopes for a quick resolution.\nAbe's Moscow visit is the first leg of a trip to Europe, which will also include a speech at the Davos forum in Switzerland on Wednesday.\nBefore his departure he acknowledged that \"negotiations with Russia have been a challenge for more than 70 years\" and hoped for \"candid talks\" with Putin.\nThe two leaders have demonstrated a good personal relationship since Abe's historic first visit to Moscow in 2013.\nAbe said in an interview published Monday by Kommersant daily that he and Putin have fully agreed to resolve the dispute \"with our own hands and not pass the problem on to future generations\".\nKremlin spokesman Peskov on Monday said that Japan had not so far made any official proposals based on claiming just two of the islands in the chain. This possibility was mooted by the Soviet Union in the 1950s, prior to Tokyo's alliance with the United States.\nJapan's Kyodo news agency, citing government sources, said Abe was leaning toward accepting this framework for a peace deal.\nBut it is not clear whether the Kremlin would be keen to transfer sovereignty even for the two smaller islands, Shikotan and Habomai, which is actually a group of uninhabited islets.\nThe chain ensures Russia's strategic control of the Sea of Okhotsk, and some southern islands in the chain are less than 10 kilometres (six miles) from Japan's island of Hokkaido.\nGiving away even uninhabited islands would be hugely symbolic and poorly received in Russia.\nSeveral protests were held in recent weeks against ceding any territory to Japan, and Putin's sliding ratings would further suffer from such a move.\nA poll by independent Russian pollster Levada Centre last month suggested that 74 percent of Russians would not support exchanging some of the islands for a peace deal, while only 17 percent said they would. State television has been unenthusiastic about the summit. Top news presenter Dmitry Kiselyov disputed the very notion that Japan could be a \"friend\" of Russia as long as it opposed Moscow's policies and had US military \"occupying\" its territory. As for the Kuril islands, Kiselyov said on his popular \"News of the Week\" show that 90 percent of Russians were against giving any of them back to Tokyo. \"Would Putin want to ignore this powerful public opinion?\" he asked. \"Impossible,\" he said.\nGreek MPs to vote on Macedonia deal amid political turmoil\nEU sanctions Russia military intel chief over Skripal\n1 Russian President Vladimir Putin, Japanese PM Shinzo Abe hold summit to break island impasse\n2 French watchdog slaps Google with $57M fine under new EU law\n3 Greek MPs to vote on Macedonia deal amid political turmoil\n4 EU sanctions Russia military intel chief over Skripal",

        "raw_content": "Kabutoyama: Another Scenic Spot in Kyoto Prefecture\nEMU JR West 287 series, limited express \"Kinosaki\", stands at Fukuchiyama station\nSubsequent to Amanohashidate, I am going to show you another scenic spot in the northern part of Kyoto Prefecture today.\nKabutoyama (war helmet mountain) is a small hill in Kyotango City. It rises only 191 meters above sea level. It looked just like an insignificant hill to me, but in fact, it is very unique. The view from the summit is great. We can see the rounded Kumihama Bay, which is surrounded by deep forests and green and yellow colored rice fields. The bay is divided into two parts by a long sandbar resembling Amanohashidate. It certainly is a superb view.\nTo get to this viewing point, the limited express train \"Kinosaki\" is convenient. \"Kinosaki\" is operated by JR West on the San-in mainline. Connecting Kyoto and Kinosaki-onsen, its operating length is 158 kilometers. The nearest station to Kabutoyama is Toyooka.\nThe train commissioned for limited express \"Kinosaki\" is the direct current EMU, JR West 287 series. The 287 series was launched in 2011 to replace the old EMU JNR 183 series. A total of 97 units were built by Kawasaki Heavy Industries and Kinki Sharyo. The technical specification of the 287 series is quite unique. All cars are motorcars, but each car has both an electric bogie and a trailing bogie. It is so called \"all 0.5M train\". The 287 series for \"Kinosaki\" have white bodies with gray and dark red stripes, which fits the beautiful coastal scenery of the northern part of Kyoto Prefecture.\nView from Kabutoyama\nOfficial information about limited express \"Kinosaki\", the EMU 287 series (in Japanese):\nhttps://www.jr-odekake.net/train/kinosaki_287/",

        "raw_content": "The Traditional Italian Meal\nAwhile back, we spotlighted the traditional Italian meal structure, which takes you through a journey from start to finish. The traditional Italian meal is about taking your time and enjoying every course. From the saying L\u2019appetito vien mangiando, we understand that \u201cthe appetite comes while you are eating.\u201d No wonder, from start to finish, the courses are designed to build upon one another to grow your appetite.\nA traditional Italian meal comprises of at least nine courses \u2013 three times what we Americans tend to think of us as a full meal! Sitting down, you are greeted with aperitivo, with a bubbly beverage and small dishes of nuts or cheeses to get your taste buds ready. The starter that we\u2019re familiar with, antipasti, will be heavier than the aperitivo, with cured meats, bread, fish, or bruschetta. Primi comes next, usually with the highlight of a luxury gourmet ingredient, such as truffle; you may find risotto, seafood, or pastas in this course. Up next is secondi, a heavier course with some sort of meat, whether it is a \u201cmeaty\u201d seafood such as lobster, or traditional meats such as chicken, lamb, or pork.\nAlongside the secondi are contorni \u2013 think of them as side-dishes. Usually these dishes will consist of a raw or cooked vegetable, served on a separate plate. Another option is insalata, a salad, if vegetables are not served in the contorni. Usually, a palate cleanser of sorbet is served after the secondi and contorni.\nWhew! Now that\u2019s a mouthful. But it\u2019s not over yet! Fruit and cheese are served near the end of the meal, in the formaggi e frutta course. Depending on the region, the pairings of fruit and cheese will differ. And finally, we hope you\u2019ve saved room for the dolce.\nDolce: A Sweet Note at the End of the Meal\nDolce is the Italian word for \u201csweet,\u201d and it also signals dessert in your meal. Through Italian culinary history, dessert has been an important part of the meal. Food historians believe that the first desserts were breaded sweets. Tracking the history of food, we find that sugar was a luxury, but of course, we find a way to get our fix! In Italian cuisine, you\u2019ll find natural sweetening from fruits and honey, to substitute sugar. For example, in panforte or biscotti, you\u2019ll find dried fruits baked in, to add a sweet pop.\nAs sugar became more available to common households, desserts in Italy had something of its own Renaissance. In addition to panna cotta, marzipan, cookies, and so much more, sugar played a key role in the development of some of the most famous of Italian desserts: tiramisu and cannoli.\nEnding on a Sweet Note at Cucina Toscana\nAs with most favorite popular dishes, tiramisu has a long, oft-disputed history. Some historians believe that tiramisu originated in the 17th century and was introduced to Duke Cosimo de Medici, who was head over heels for it and popularized the dessert.\nOther sources claim that it was invented in the 1960s, at a restaurant in Treviso, Italy. Roberto Linguanatto, who was the owner of Le Becchiere, claimed to have invented this dish, named after his apprentice, Francesca, whose maiden name was \u201cTiramisu.\u201d Others will claim that tiramisu was invented in World War II, with the combination of liquor to coffee to give them a little \u201cpick-me-up.\u201d\nTiramisu, in Italian, means \u201cpick me up,\u201d \u201ccheer me up,\u201d and \u201clift me up.\u201d This has to do, in part, with the coffee in which ladyfinger cookies are dipped, before they are layered. Here at Cucina Toscana, we prepare tiramisu in the traditional Italian way, with mascarpone cheese and cocoa powder. What better way to end your meal?\nWhen Clemenza pulls out of his driveway to go on a job, his wife shouts from the front door, \u201cDon\u2019t forget the cannoli!\u201d It\u2019s these little touches in The Godfather that make it an incredible work of cinema \u2013 and arguably, one of the best lines in The Godfather is Clemenza\u2019s directive to his henchman: \u201cLeave the gun \u2013 take the cannoli.\u201d\nCannoli originates from Sicily (as does The Godfather), and its name means \u201ctubes.\u201d This cylindrical fried pastry is filled with sweetened ricotta, which may be scented with cinnamon or rosewater. Sometimes, you\u2019ll find cannoli coated with chocolate or sprinkled with pistachios. Here at Cucina Toscana, we serve it with chocolate and a topping of fresh fruit.\nCome join us at our Italian table at Cucina Toscana! And don\u2019t forget to leave room for dessert!",

        "raw_content": "Home > Touro University Nevada > Jay Sexter Library > Jay Sexter Library Publications and Research > 2\nJay Sexter Library Publications and Research\nThe Role of Reading Classic Fiction in Book Groups for People with Dementia is Better Understood through Use of a Qualitative Feasibility Study\nJoanne M. Muellenbach, Touro University NevadaFollow\nObjective \u2013 To explore how people living with dementia experience reading classic fiction in book groups and what benefits this intervention provides.\nDesign \u2013 Qualitative feasibility study.\nSetting \u2013 Day centre within a care home in the North Island of New Zealand.\nSubjects \u2013 Eight participants with a medical diagnosis of dementia \u2013 four community dwellers who attend day centers, and four residents of a secure dementia unit in a care home.\nMethods \u2013 Investigators used surveys, focus groups, and interpretative phenomenological analysis (IPA), for ideographic analysis of the data.\nMain results \u2013 Following analysis of the focus book group data, three superordinate, with related subordinate, themes were found: 1) the participant as a lively reader. The participants shared childhood memories of reading and when they became adults, how they encouraged reading within the household and with their own children. Subordinate themes included: recall, liveliness of discussion, and interest in reading and book clubs; 2) the participant as guardian of the voice of Dickens. Participants believed that, when the language is simplified, the beauty and rich imagery of Dickens is lost. Subordinate themes included: oversimplifying \u201closes the voice of Dickens\u201d, familiarity, and continued play on words; and 3) the participant as a discerning book reviewer. The participants offered a number of \u2018dementia-friendly\u2019 suggestions, including the use of memory aids and simplifying text. Subordinate themes were expressed as four recommendations: use cast of characters; illustrations pick up the energy of the story, but balance quantity with risk of being childish; the physical quality of the text and paper; and chunk quantity of text while keeping the style of the original author. The choice of using classic fiction that was already well known was validated by the participants, who had some preconceptions about Ebenezer Scrooge, and described him by using epithets such as mean, an old bastard, and ugly. The participants found the investigators\u2019 adapted version to be oversimplified, as short excerpts of the original Dickens seemed to evoke emotional and aesthetic responses of appreciation. Therefore, when creating adaptations, it is important to preserve the beauty of the original writing as much as possible.\nConclusion \u2013 This qualitative feasibility study has provided a better understanding of how people living with dementia experience classic fiction in shared book groups. For individuals with Alzheimer\u2019s disease, language skills may be well-preserved until later in the disease course. For example, the focus group participants demonstrated an appreciation and command of language, as well as enthusiasm and excitement in the sharing of the original Dickens with others. They suggested the use of memory aids, such as including a cast of characters, and repeating the referent newly on each page. Participants also suggested that the adapted version be shortened, to use a large font, and to include plenty of pictures. The choice of using classic fiction was validated by the participants, as they found these tales comforting and familiar, particularly when they included such colorful characters as Ebenezer Scrooge. Finally, people living with dementia should be encouraged to enjoy books for the same reason other adults love to read \u2013 primarily for the creative process. Classic fiction may be adapted to enhance readability, but the adaptation must be done in a thoughtful manner. While memory deficits occur in Alzheimer\u2019s disease, an appreciation of complex language may be preserved until the later disease stages.\nMuellenbach, J. M. (2018).

This payment structure provides a flexible budget with which they can offer services that don\u2019t necessarily fit into the established fee-for-service structure.

As described in the legislation, the Trust is meant to pay for health care for Washington residents not otherwise covered by Medicaid, Medicare, or private insurance including dental and long term care (think nursing homes). Most likely the funds for the Trust would come from a combination of a payroll tax and a sliding-scale premium.

        "raw_content": "Blog How to Find a Profitable Niche for Affiliate Marketing\nHow to Find a Profitable Niche for Affiliate Marketing\nIn Business and Marketing by Fathi Arfaoui2 CommentsLast Updated: May 29th, 2018\nEverybody knows that affiliate marketing is the most successful and effective way to earn money online. However, not all the products that you want to promote are good, to make money and succeed.\nThe reason is simple, there are lots of competitions these days, and you should think about a niche with fewer competitors, and with a good revenue. That\u2019s why the best method is to learn exactly how to find a profitable niche for affiliate marketing.\nIt\u2019s not easy to find the right niche to promote on the right website, but things can be easy if you follow my tips, and how to pick the right place for the real income.\nThere are some rules when it comes to finding a profitable niche for affiliate marketing, and I\u2019ll explain them one by one. But, please make sure to understand that the exact domain name is no longer working these days, as it was before.\nSo, if you want to pick a long domain name, and you think it will rank higher, then, that will waste your time. Make things professional and use your actual blog, or simply pick a domain with fewer characters.\nYou can also read: The best niche finder software.\nSearch for a niche with good monthly searches in Google\nOf course, you don\u2019t need to create lots of content and work hard, and then nobody will search for your products or reviews. The first thing to do when it comes to affiliate marketing is typing your general topic in Google keyword planner tool, and see how many estimated monthly searches for that topic.\nIf you find something popular with more than 30.000 searches per month, forget that and find another one. Simply, because the more the term is popular, the more thousands of competitors you will find and already people have created lots of content about it.\nSo, it\u2019s not easy at all to rank for the same content now. In general, you don\u2019t need a number of search results fewer than 500 per month.\nThese are just tips to stay away from the competition, and focus on a sub niche that a few people are creating content for it, and you will be lucky if you find a niche with no results in Google search.\nThe only reason to use paid keywords research tool is t find the level of the competitions for any keyword.\nThe profitable niche\nNow, you have an idea about what niches you can use for your website. And you need to find, if they are making money or not. This is the most important part, and it\u2019s the easiest part at the same time. You don\u2019t need to create lots of informational content, that will never make you money.\nWhen people want to buy something, they search for reviews about it, and they need screenshots, or videos, for example, about how using it. Also, they want to see the product in action. These people are interested in buying the product, and not only learning about it.\nTo find if your niche will really make you money, type some words in Google, and see if people search for them.\nFor example, search for \u201chealth products\u201d, and see if there are some good number of results that are not too popular, and have more than 500 searches per month, at the same time.\nIf you find some, then, you have the people who want to buy the \u201chealth\u201d products, and you need to create the content for them, and add your affiliate links.\nSo, make sure that the term, or the keyword that you\u2019re using are bringing traffic from buyers, and not people who just search for information and then leave your site forever. You can help these people on other websites, and not with affiliate marketing ones. In general use review model and add videos.\nFind a niche with products to promote\nThe niche will not make you money if there are no products to promote. So, when you have a niche, and some good search from the Google keyword planner tool, you can browse your best affiliate network, and find the best product for that niche.\nClickBank, for example, is one of the biggest digital affiliate networks that you can find thousands of products. Just browse by category, and type some keywords to find the best products to promote.\nRemember that you need to recommend good products, and you have to try them before promoting, there are scammers, and you should be careful about that. If you make money, that\u2019s good for you, but make sure that you recommend really the best products, and investigate on them.\nBest niche for affiliate marketing\nYou cannot limit affiliate niches in an exact number, simply because there are thousands of sub niches and things are complicated. But, the best niches to promote are, money making and software products.\nGames can also make you money, lots of marketers make thousands of dollars per day, promoting specific games. The dating, is also one of the best successful niches to promote, but only for high traffic sites with topics related to relationships. That makes things easy to get conversions, and not only put a banner for nothing.\nThe web hosting is also a very profitable niche, and you can select a specific niche for WordPress, and the best service to promote is always WP Engine. They pay $200 for every new hosting account, and a few companies have that high commission. The best part is that the program is a premium hosting service that you can promote and be proud of it.\nThe computer and electronic world is another good niche to promote, but make sure to pick a specific niche such as \u201cToshiba\u201d Apple\u201d and so on. That gives you better results than creating content about general hardware, and software, that all others are promoting.\nFocus, on the traffic sources, and you only need the Google organic traffic, or traffic from your advertising campaigns, if you have money invest.\nTo find a profitable niche to promote and create content for it, you need to make sure that people are searching for it on Google, and that you can get lots of buyers who search for that niche\u2019s product, and not just for fun.\nAlso, make sure that the niche has good products to promote and the most important part, pick niches with few competitors. And never promote general niches that popular blogs and marketer are promoting. It will be hard to compete with them, so, focus on specific niches and you will succeed.\nCan you say it more specific? Ex: what is potential niche?\nA potential niche is the niche market with huge monthly searches on Google and with good products or services to promote (related to it). For example, you need a niche that has thousands of searches for keywords, thus, thousands of people are ready to find your products, and of course, you need the right products to promote within your blog or website content. Some potential niches are: health, in general, weight loss, games, money making and so on.",

The U.S. Supreme Court struck down as unconstitutional two provisions of House Bill 2, a law passed in 2013 that shuttered half of the state\u2019s abortion clinics. Medically unnecessary abortion restrictions, like those in HB 2, impose an undue burden on Texans seeking abortion, do nothing to promote women\u2019s health and safety, disproportionately impact low-income Texans, rural Texans, and Texans of color, and hurt families by making it difficult to access the care they need.\nThe mandatory 24-hour waiting period\u2014based on the widely discredited and demeaning premise that women make the decision to have an abortion without reflection\u2014puts an extra burden on women who must take more time off work, incur the extra expense of travel, and be away from family longer than necessary.\nEqual Pay and Paid Leave\nInstead of limiting Texans\u2019 options, lawmakers should champion policies like equal pay and paid sick and family leave to ensure all Texans have the economic security needed to support their families.\nTake action today. Ask your state representative and senator to fight for these issues in the state legislature \u2014 to be a champion of abortion access and policies that support Texas families and fight for our endorsed legislation.\nThis bill would eliminate the mandatory 24-hour waiting period before an abortion can be performed. This bill would eliminate a medically unnecessary, unduly burdensome barrier to abortion access.\nThis bill would protect the rights of breastfeeding mothers.\nThis bill would promote equal pay by making it easier for women to fight wage discrimination in state court.\nRep. Ina Minjarez\nThis bill would give Texas workers the opportunity to earn up to 30 days of paid family and medical leave. Paid leave is essential to ensure equal access to health care for all Texans and to ensure that parents can afford to take time off work to care for a new baby or a sick child.",

        "raw_content": "Tags: The Division 2, tom clancy's the division, ubisoft, xbox one x\nTom Clancy\u2019s The Division 2 will support a variable refresh rate as seen on the official Microsoft Xbox store listing for the game. This confirms that it will offer Free Sync support for the Xbox One.\nTom Clancy\u2019s The Division 2 offering a variable refresh rate means that it will possibly offer the option to unlock the frame rate so the game runs at more than 30 FPS. This is still a new feature on the Xbox One that not many games are utilizing right now, but looking at the list, Tom Clancy\u2019s The Division 2 offers this feature. The file size is still a placeholder, unlike Metro Exodus.\nOne interesting thing to notice here is how the \u201cVariable Refresh Rate\u201d tag is not clickable at all. You can click on any of the other tags to open a list of games that support that feature, but there is no way to do it for the Variable Refresh Rate. There are a couple of first-party and third-party games that do come with the tag like Pillars of Eternity: Complete Edition and Gears of War 4.\nTraditionally, games are locked to either 30 FPS or 60 FPS so that when the frame rate fluctuates, there is a feeling of the game stuttering and it can ruin the experience. Free Sync supported monitors means that this issue is completely eliminated so the developers are free to offer an unlocked frame rate and even if the game averages out at 45 FPS, it will still be a better experience than 30 FPS locked. This gives the Xbox One clear advantage over its competitors although it requires a display that supports free sync.\nTom Clancy\u2019s The Division 2 story length was recently revealed by Ubisoft. If you are looking to buy a new AMD GPU, you can also grab Tom Clancy\u2019s The Division 2 for free.\nThe Last of Us Part 2 Release Date Is Coming \u201cVery Soon\u201d According To Composer\nThe Division 2 Private Beta: Details On Level Limit, Missions, Download Size, Links, and More\nHMM not bad for an inferior platform not bad and at-least they are moving tech forwards https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/77695ff86850c9084e7f4bb7945acf831580ea201314812276fe3452f7d4e7e0.png\nInferior\u2026. I own it all and a boss computer, but still do not get the idea of calling something inferior in the regards you are\u2026. Because it is the most powerful console no matter how shake a stick at it.

Her first major photographic essay focused on the lives of women doing striptease at New England country fairs, whom she photographed during three consecutive summers while teaching photography in New York public schools. Carnival Strippers was originally published in 1976 and a selection was installed at the Whitney Museum of Art in June 2000.\nMeiselas joined Magnum Photos in 1976 and has worked as a freelance photographer since then. She is best known for her coverage of the insurrection in Nicaragua and her documentation of human rights issues in Latin America. She published her second monograph, Nicaragua, in 1981. Meiselas served as an editor and contributor to the book El Salvador: The Work of Thirty Photographers and edited Chile from Within featuring work by photographers living under the Pinochet regime. She has co-directed two films, Living at Risk: The Story of a Nicaraguan Family and Pictures from a Revolution with Richard P. Rogers and Alfred Guzzetti. In 1997, she completed a six-year project curating a hundred-year photographic history of Kurdistan, integrating her own work into the book Kurdistan: In the Shadow of History and developed akaKurdistan, an online site of exchange for collective memory in 1998.\nHer monograph Pandora\u2019s Box explores a New York S & M club, has been exhibited both at home and abroad. Encounters with the Dani reveals a sixty-year history of outsiders\u2019 discovery and interactions with the Dani, an indigenous people of the highlands of Papua in Indonesia.\nMeiselas has had one-woman exhibitions in Paris, Madrid, Amsterdam, London, Los Angeles, Chicago, and New York, and her work is included in collections around the world. She has received the Robert Capa Gold Medal for her work in Nicaragua (1979); the Leica Award for Excellence (1982); the Engelhard Award from the Institute of Contemporary Art (1985); the Hasselblad Foundation Photography prize (1994); the Cornell Capa Infinity Award (2005) and most recently was awarded the Harvard Arts Medal (2011). In 1992, she was named a MacArthur Fellow.\nPosted by Randall Rowe at 10:09am February 6, 2018 Posted in Art, Artists, OSU Events, Other Lectures\tLeave a comment\nResearch Update: Transnational Performance\nby Joshua Truett, PhD Candidate Performance/History/Theory Department of Theatre & Sexuality Studies\nProject Location (Summer 2017): Juchit\u00e1n de Zaragoza and Oaxaca de Ju\u00e1rez, Mexico\nEl Foro Ecol\u00f3gico Juchiteco Stage\nMy mission as an artist/scholar is to create work that expands social discourse and instigates introspection about social and political issues. I was born in San Diego, less than twenty miles from the Mexican border. During my childhood in Southern California, I became fascinated by intersections: the places where peoples, cultures, and ideologies converge. This is reflected in my academic research and creative work, which is situated between the intersections of various art forms\u2014prerecorded media and live performance, and the borders between theatre, dance and film.\nJosh Truett at El Foro Ecol\u00f3gico Juchiteco\nMy dissertation research focuses on a study of the festival performances of the indigenous populations of the Isthmus of Tehuantepec in Oaxaca, Mexico. In particular I focus on the festivals, known as velas, in the Zapotec town of Juchit\u00e1n de Zaragoza. During my third fieldwork trip to the city, I was part of a group of artists who began collaboration on a project to explore issues around borders and immigration. We were later invited by a local arts and educational organization, El Foro Ecol\u00f3gico Juchiteco, to use their community center for rehearsing and devising the production, which the Global Mobility Project grant helped to support in the summer of 2017. The artists involved in the project hail from the United States, Mexico, and Cuba. Together we have initiated an investigation into our collective experiences as migrants and border dwellers.\nDuring our work over the summer we explored how borders and border crossings can be experienced not only physically, but also conceptually and spiritually. We began by asking how individuals navigate distances, mobility, and cultural clashes in fluid, creative, and productive ways that counter the common narratives constructed about migrants by politicians and mass media, especially in the United States and Europe.\nThese questions then contributed to a wider discussion of the challenges and opportunities created through national and transnational mobility, gaining insight into how these dynamics have affected our own individual lives and the communities we live in. The material we generated from our own experiences became the foundation for the original text and dance that we created during the workshop, which we plan to fuse with video and film as the project progresses. The performance we are creating will be multilingual, including Spanish, English, and Zapotec text.\nAt the end of our two-week workshop, we were challenged by the realties of creating a transnational collaborative project in which the collaborators involved live in four different cities, separated by thousands of miles. How do we continue the creative work when we are not together in the same place? What are the hurdles to collaborating in a digital rather than physical space? In the future, how can we sustain a tour of a performance with the challenges of visas, \u201ctravel bans,\u201d and the high costs of touring? What is the best medium to contain and share our work, so that it can circulate most widely? We are still seeking answers to these and the other questions raised during our summer workshop.\nA couple months after the workshop, in September of 2017, two massive earthquakes and numerous large aftershocks rocked the southern region of Mexico. The Isthmus and Juchit\u00e1n de Zaragoza were hit especially hard, with over 100 deaths and countless numbers of buildings and other structures destroyed or damaged, including the complete leveling of a large section of the city hall, the palacio municipal. In a year that has witnessed so many natural disasters, the tragedy in Juchit\u00e1n has gone under reported, and it has quickly faded from the headlines. However, the challenges faced by the inhabitants of the Isthmus persist and the need for aid and supplies is still urgent.

In preparation for the visit, the students read Longinovic\u2019s Vampire Nation: Violence as Cultural Imaginary. The discussion meandered through a variety of themes from popular culture, mythology, and politics.\nThrough the book, Longinovic explores the vampire as a metaphor, \u201cpointing to the Gothic associations of violence, blood, and soil in the writings of many intellectuals and politicians during the 1990s, especially in portrayals by the U.S.-led Western media of \u2018the serbs\u2019 as a vampire nation, a bloodsucking parasite on the edge of European civilization\u201d (Longinovic).\nThe class discussion began with a question about how refugees are treated in Serbia. While on the surface this question is simple, it actually has some deep cultural ties. First, some Serbians feel solidarity with refugees because they would also like to move to one of Europe\u2019s wealthier countries. Second, stories of exile are written into the culture and thus tie into national identity. Finally, there are Biblical and mythological overtones at play: one must be hospitable because one never knows who the guest really is.\nNext, the students discussed how the vampire myth ties into nationalism. Vampirism is the perfect metaphor for nationalism because it is the past consuming the future. The vampire does not consume the old and enfeebled; he eats the young, the healthy, and the intelligent. The vampire further exemplifies nationalism because of his ties to blood and soil. Myths of vampires spring up along the zones of cultural transition, the borders, where there is ethnic mixing \u2013 people who are not one or the other.\nAs the class concluded, we discussed how portrayals of vampires have changed over time. Early vampires are dust and dead bodies. It wasn\u2019t until they were aestheticized by the Gothic imagination that they transformed into something attractive and graceful. Today, there is the \u201cvegan\u201d vampire (ex. Louis from Interview with the Vampire, Angel from Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Edward from Twilight), a vampire of remarkable beauty who can live indefinitely but who drinks from humans begrudgingly.\nLonginovic, Tomislav.

Yang\u2019s live-feed videos and projections fill the gallery with ethereal iterations of its visitors. Rehman\u2019s multidisciplinary installations discuss language and her upbringing in a Muslim-American household. The work of both artists will be on display May 6\u201327 at 997 N High St. Hours: 1\u2013 6 pm Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Admission is free.\nBelow is an artist statement by Sa\u2019dia Rehman in which she discusses the thought process behind her work.\nMaking of Erasure Fallen Dust\nThe works included in my solo exhibition at ROY G BIV Gallery are:\na wall drawing titled Erasure of Fallen Dust, 2017\na drawing on paper titled Bul Bul ka Bacha, A Rhyme, 2016\nthree 4 x 6 photographs titled A Family Garden, 2016\nand a video titled Ethnographer/Photographer, Episode 3: Corona/Queens, New York, 2017\nThe wall drawing and the video are supported by a grant from the Global Mobility Project at Ohio State University, an Arts & Humanities Discovery Theme Pilot Project\nThe wall drawing continued to evolve in the gallery and in my studio, rejecting the possibility of resolution and in support of the unfinished. My work addresses a void in contemporary visual art: the imagery of the Muslim family and its artifacts are essentially absent outside of depictions of war and violence abroad. Much of my work is rooted in narratives from my own experience and my family. For me the unfinished are these narratives and these thoughts, yet to be visible.\nMy work engages the unfinished as method, material, and process. By focusing on the unfinished, the work rejects the idea that any work is finished or fixed. Instead the work turns the viewer to focus on the process of art-making. It points to the subjectivity, rather than objectivity, of the artist as art-maker, and the viewer as consumer. Rather than suggest a stable truth, it suggests that we are all unfinished, changing, evolving. There is no complete, or possibility of complete, in the work: I am more interested in the relational and dynamic aspect of understanding and meaning making. The work deals with issues for which there are no answers. These issues exist in ever-shifting and polarized terrain\u2013which makes understanding between the artist and the viewer near impossible.\nNayeon and Erasure Fallen Dust\nMy ongoing video series, Ethnographer/Photographer plays with concepts of language, power, belonging, and framing, as well as travel, tourism, voyeurism, and study. I use the word \u201cethnographer\u201d in the title of this work knowing that this work is not a thorough study of human culture. However, the work uses elements of ethnography- observations, documentation, and records. I am the subject, the viewer, and the storyteller interacting with a city.\nStill from EthnoPhoto Corona\nIn earlier episodes of this work, I engaged with strangers and requested that they take photos of me. As I lend my camera to passersby, a non-verbal exchange of power occurred. The stranger became the photographer, positioned my body, directed my facial expressions, and composed the photograph. These simple gestures unfold into friendly conversations, revelatory stories, and momentary companionships. I then created a performance and video with the photographs and my accompanying journal entries. The interactions have lasted from five minutes to two days. However, I reveal just a few details of these interactions.\nFor the episode exhibited at ROY G BIV, I visited my childhood neighborhood of Corona and walked the streets for days. Many of the paths I walked traced the steps I ran around while a child growing up in Queens, New York. During my walk, I realized that this episode couldn\u2019t follow the same formula as noted above. I felt that I needed to capture my walk by attaching my camera to my body. This episode is an unedited version of a twenty-minute walk from the 103rd street subway station to Masjid Al-Falah to what once was my dad\u2019s halal meat shop now a barber shop, my childhood home, the firehouse across the street, the former Tiffany glass factory, P.S. 19Q, and the corner bodega.\nArtist talk: Saturday May 20th 2:30 PM at\nwebsite: http://www.sadiarehman.com\nSa\u2019dia Rehman copies, assembles, and disassembles family photographs, intimate and ritual objects, and visual and written language as a way to explore the limits and possibilities of self and collective being. Through collages, stencils, installations, and photo/video, she explores states of in-between, past and present, belonging and desire. She is currently exploring the role of walls in constructing interior and exterior spaces. Rehman has shared her work at Urban Art Space (2017), ROYGBIV (2017), Twelve Gates (2016), Center for Book Arts (2015), Local Projects (2014), Queens Museum (2012), Brooklyn Museum (2010), and Grey Noise (2008). She was selected for the Global Mobility grant (2017), Rasquache Residency in Puebla Mexico (2016), LMCC\u2019s Artists Summer Institute (2011), AIM Bronx Museum (2008), and a residency at the National Gallery, Islamabad, Pakistan (2006). Her work has been featured inThe New York Times, Harper\u2019s, Art Papers, and ColorLines. She will have a solo show at Pearl Conard Gallery, Mansfield, OH in January 2018.

According to an article in the Columbus Dispatch, \u201csince the 1980s, roughly 80,000 of Bhutan\u2019s ethnic Nepalese have resettled in the United States after the Bhutanese monarchy banned their Hindu religion, language and customs. Many others were jailed or killed, and still others were driven into exile after being forced to turn over their land and resources to the government.\u201d\nThis exhibit, profiled in the Columbus Dispatch on May 11, presents the faces of 30 of our Bhutanese-Nepali neighbors and friends. Each photograph, taken by Tariq Tarey, is accompanied by a narrative written by Doug Rutledge, which explains each individual\u2019s history. These photographs tell the story of the Bhutanese-Nepali refugees, their lives in Bhutan, their experience leaving, life in refugee camps, and their new life in Columbus.\nThe exhibit runs until Sunday, January 7, 2018 at the Ohio History Center; 800 E. 17th Ave, Columbus, OH 43211, Weds.\u2013Sat. 10 a.m.\u20135 p.m., Sun.

Yang\u2019s work explores interactions individuals have with the people around them. This subject-object, or self-other relationship is magnified in the context of her work by creating an interactive environment where images of the self are rearranged and individuality becomes manifold.\nYang is a U.S.-based interdisciplinary artist from South Korea. She has exhibited her work at various venues including CICA Museum (Gimpo, S. Korea), 849 Gallery at the Kentucky College of Art and Design (Louisville, KY), Urban Arts Space (Columbus, OH), Performance Art Bergen (Bergen, Norway), Bunker Projects (Pittsburgh, PA), Art Museum at the University of Kentucky (Lexington, KY), and Latitude 53 (Edmonton, AB. Canada), and Defibrillator Performance Art Gallery (Chicago, IL). She received a MFA from the Ohio State University (2016) and BFA from School of the Art Institute of Chicago (2011).\nSa\u2019dia Rehman\u2019s multidisciplinary practice pulls from her collection of family photos, ritual objects, English and Urdu text. Rehman uses an array of mark-making techniques, stencils and collage to discuss the broader implications of language and perception as well as her experience growing up in a Muslim household in America, where being perceived as \u201cother\u201d foiled the familiarity of home.\nRehman will also screen the video series Ethnographer/Photographer, documenting her interactions with passerby as she asks them to take a photo of her. The project is supported by a grant from the Global Mobility Project at Ohio State University, an Arts & Humanities Discovery Theme Pilot Project. Rehman has shared her work at Urban Art Space (2017), Twelve Gates (2016), Center for Book Arts (2015), Local Projects (2014), Queens Museum (2012), Brooklyn Museum (2010), and Grey Noise (2008).

It was exhibited at The Mangere Arts Centre in New Zealand in 2012-2013 and The International Visual Arts Program in Adelaide, Australia in 2012.\n\u201c\u2028Walls have a longstanding relation both with liberty from fear and subjugation to another\u2019s will. After 1945, walls acquired an unprecedented determination to divide. They spread like a bushfire from Berlin to Palestine, from the tablelands of Kashmir to the villages of Cyprus, from the Korean peninsula to the streets of Belfast. When the Cold War ended, we were told to expect their dismantling. Instead, they are growing taller, more impenetrable, longer. They leap from one continent onto the next. They are globalising. From the West Bank to Kosovo, from the gated communities of Egypt to those of California, from the killing fields of old Ethiopia to the US-Mexico borders, a seamless wall is meandering its way, both physically and emotionally, on the planet\u2019s surface. Its spectre is upon us.\u201d \u2013 Yanis Varoufakis\nClick here to visit the artist\u2019s website to watch part 2 of the installation and to see stills from the videos.\nPosted by beiswenger.4 at 2:51pm Posted in Art, Videos\tLeave a comment",

He was initially deployed to Kadugli to support the already established Disarmament Dembolisation and Reintegration (DDR) process, to assist with the verification of ex-combatants, provide logistical support and monitor the DD activities at the demobilisation site. Among other responsibilities he also facilitates the liaison and coordination of the activities with the Joint DDR Commission, operations planning and building the capacity of the governmental counterparts. In August, with the launching of the programme in Kauda, Southern Kordofan. he was reassigned to support the integrated DDR team there.\n\"The work is challenging for me, as I believe there is no school that teaches DDR work, it is something so specific to a given context that one can only learn on the ground, hands on. Moreover, there needs to be a good coordination between the partners involved: both the national commissions and the UN.\"\nOne of Abuanja's motivations to volunteer with UNV in his own country is having shared the experience of war with the people he is now trying to help recover:\n\"This assignment has given me the opportunity to participate in a programme which has both a human dimension and a political one, and which is essential for building peace in my country\" he says.\n\"I see smiles on the faces of the ex-combatants when they finish the demobilisation programme.

        "raw_content": "In September of 2008 three distinct political moments highlighted the perils and possibilities of the ongoing struggle of the Six Nations (Haudenosaunee) people in southern Ontario. On the morning of Labour Day, Brantford police moved in to make three arrests at a building site where Six Nations protesters were blocking the construction of a Hampton Inn hotel. Moments later, word of the arrests spread to the reclamation site in the nearby town of Caledonia. Several dozen people from Six Nations dragged a hydro tower across Highway 6 and blocked the main street through the town. Two hours later, the natives had lifted their blockade but the road remained closed. About 100 Caledonians blocked all traffic entering the town to protest the native blockade and the failure of the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) to clear it.\nIncreasingly experienced in the art of protest, residents used radios and police scanners to coordinate their efforts. They managed to keep the road blocked for six hours. Late in the day, when the OPP riot squad finally arrived to clear the road, an agreement was reached that the residents would leave \u2013 but only once the OPP themselves stood down. Ultimately, the conflict was defused and the road re-opened amidst muttered threats from organizers that they would take action to blockade the entrances to the Six Nations reserve the next time the conflict erupted.\nSeveral weeks later, Brantford developers and city counsellors called a meeting at Coronation public school to provide information about a new subdivision they were planning to build in an environmentally sensitive area along Hardy Street. With the city involved in a bitter struggle with native activists over development, tensions in the city were running high. Because both the parking lot and nearby baseball diamond were overflowing with parked cars, some Six Nations activists attending the event were worried as they approached the school. Trepidation about the reception they might receive quickly dissolved when it became clear that the overwhelming majority of the more than 200 people present were flatly opposed to the plans to build 2000 new homes in their neighbourhood. Six Nations activists\u2019 statements - that the land in question is unceded native territory and that they would not permit construction to take place - were met with wild applause, whistles, and foot stomping. An impromptu vote was held to decide if the community wanted the development to proceed and the scheme was rejected 200 votes to one.\nIn late September, workers from the Brantford Amalgamated Transit Union Local 685 approached members of the Haudenosaunee Men\u2019s Council for assistance. Fighting for their first contract, the workers asked if members of the Men\u2019s Council would be willing to join their picket lines and give them warrior flags they could carry in solidarity with Six Nations. The workers further asked Six Nations to declare that their employer\u2019s business operations were on unceded native land and to give them permission to set up their pickets and mobile strike headquarters on that land.\nWhat these vignettes reveal is that the Six Nations struggle has now surpassed the political constraints of most indigenous land claims in Canada, where issues are settled through a protracted process of negotiation and judicial argument by experts. What is different about the current direction of the Six Nations struggle is its ongoing and escalating direct action protests.2\nBecause of the numerical and organizational strength of Six Nations, and because of the large non-native population in the surrounding area, these protests are starting to transform local struggles. Along with giving rise to a radical right-wing populism opposed to indigenous sovereignty (as demonstrated by anti-native protests in Caledonia) direct action protests by Six Nations are increasingly resonating with local ecological and class struggles.\nAs Vince Gilchrest, a member of the Haudenosaunee Men\u2019s Council recounts:\nYou wouldn\u2019t believe how many people support us. I go into a bar just to have a drink, and [non-native] people that I don\u2019t know come up to me and start giving me high fives and slapping me on the back and say \u2018you guys keep it up, you\u2019re doing good\u2019 and all that stuff. They know we\u2019re winning because of the way we stand up to their government. And I tell them, \u2018well you guys could do the same. If you band together and have resolve, you can get the same results.\u2019\nAlthough the actions of Six Nations are receiving relatively little attention from the radical left, their struggle is raising intriguing questions about the ways in which direct action can provoke a contestation over sovereignty while at the same time transforming the means by which non-natives conceive of their own political struggles and possibilities for victory.\n\u201cThreatening the very life of the city\u201d\nOver the past year, the primary focus of Six Nations protests has been commercial development on contested lands within the city of Brantford. Occupations at over a dozen construction sites have stopped developments and disrupted Brantford\u2019s plans for long-term economic growth. According to Neil Smitherman, the city\u2019s lawyer, the Six Nations campaign of direct action is \u201ca critical problem for the city of Brantford; it\u2019s an emergency ... it\u2019s threatening the very life of the city.\u201d3 In response, the city has begun criminalizing political activity by the people of Six Nations. Wthout community consultation, the Brantford City Council pushed through a series of bylaws in April 2008 aimed at stopping Six Nations from protesting at construction sites in Brantford.4 When people from Six Nations disregarded these bylaws and continued their blockades, the city council filed an injunction calling for the courts to bring in the Canadian Armed Forces to quell the \u201cinevitable \u2026 full-scale disturbance or riot\u201d that would be triggered by the requested police enforcement of the bylaws and injunction.5\nThe situation in Brantford remains unresolved. On one side, a determined group of indigenous activists are asserting the sovereign authority of their traditional government \u2013 the Haudenosaunee Confederacy \u2013 by physically blocking development in the middle of Canada\u2019s 31st largest city. On the other side, the city of Brantford is trying to exert its own authority as an arm of the Canadian state and as enforcer of the property rights of corporations attempting to build on Six Nations land. What happens next has major repercussions for the ongoing struggle over the 950,000 acres of disputed land on the Haldimand tract. It will set an important precedent for indigenous movements across North America.\nSince the February 2006 land reclamation near Caledonia, the political resurgence at Six Nations has led the Haudenosaunee Confederacy to create new institutions operating outside of the control of the Canadian state. Backed by direct action, these institutions are making demands on capitalists seeking to develop indigenous lands.6 These actions are implicitly anti-capitalist. Not only are they aimed at physically shutting down the developments that are actively dispossessing Six Nations of their lands, they are also explicitly seeking to return these lands to collective communal control.7 Because the Six Nations worldview calls for an improvement of environmental conditions (from which all residents of the Grand River stand to benefit), and because non-native social movements have been inspired by their direct action tactics, new alliances between indigenous activists and segments of the local non-native population are emerging. These alliances have the potential to create new and powerful forms of solidarity across struggles.\nThe 2006 reclamation of the Douglas Creek Estates (DCE) \u2013 known to Six Nations as Kanenhstaton, \u201cthe protected place\u201d \u2013 was made possible by a tremendous mobilization that saw thousands of people participating in prolonged direct action. In this way, they held the site against physical attacks from both the Ontario Provincial Police and hostile mobs of non-natives. But the reclamation also raised a number of questions for the Haudenosaunee Confederacy. Given that federal and provincial negotiators were showing little interest in addressing substantive issues, how could Six Nations exercise their sovereign rights to halt (or at least control) development taking place on land over which they were negotiating? The Confederacy\u2019s solution was to create the Haudenosaunee Development Institute (HDI), which would function as a planning and administrative arm of the Confederacy. After developers paid an administration fee and submitted their work plans, the HDI would conduct an environmental assessment and historical research to determine if, and under what conditions, development could continue.\nIn many ways, the strategy of the HDI appears to mark a return to 19th-century war chief Joseph Brant\u2019s original plan for providing for the Six Nations community. In Brant\u2019s vision, much of the Haldimand tract would be leased to non-natives, and the revenues would be administered for the \u201cperpetual care and maintenance\u201d of the community as a whole. In at least one instance, this does indeed seem to be what HDI is proposing. A sworn affidavit by Parminder Bawa, director and manager of the Bawa hotel development in Brantford, states that HDI would only let the development go ahead if \u201cthe title in the land was assigned to HDI in exchange for a 50 year lease\u201d on the property.8 Annual development fees and lease payments would also have to be made to the HDI. The HDI thus represents a very different approach to handling land claims than elsewhere in Canada, where the balance of power is significantly less favorable to indigenous communities. As a wing of the Haudenosaunee Confederacy Council, the HDI has not waited for the federal or provincial government to resolve land claims. Because of this, the HDI has also faced the fundamental question that all sovereign powers confront: how can it physically enforce power over the territory it claims?\nThe legacy of community self-mobilization and direct action required to hold Kanenhstaton partly addressed this problem. Floyd and Ruby Montour \u2013 two Six Nations elders who played a central role at the reclamation site \u2013 led a small group of Six Nations activists to shut down the Edwards Landfill in November 2007. A non-native coalition known as Haldimand Against Landfill Transfers (HALT) had been seeking legal remedies to the illegal dumping of industrial, commercial, and institutional garbage at the landfill for a number of years.9 However, the local residents were not willing to use direct action tactics once their legal and lobbying strategies had failed. It was not until the group around the Montours began to physically block the entrance of the dump that the landfill was shut down.\nThese protest tactics were applied elsewhere in Brantford. By the spring of 2008, the group around the Montours stopped work at half a dozen construction sites including a multi-million dollar industrial development by Kingspan Insulated Panels Ltd., an 84-room Hampton Inn project being built by Bawa Hotels Canada, a retail development by First Gulf developments, and a residential subdivision planned by Cambridge Heritage Management Corp.10 Indigenous activists shut down these sites by standing in front of heavy machinery and politely informing the bosses that, if they did not immediately cease construction and consult with the HDI, a large group of Six Nations activists would descend on the site and carry out a repeat of the Caledonia reclamation. Although the HDI denies that the Montours were acting on its behalf, the group of activists led by the Montours has forced developers to recognize the HDI as a body that must be consulted.\nProvoking a \u201cFull Scale Disturbance\u201d\nSqueezed by activists from Six Nations on one side and by frustrated developers on the other, the city of Brantford filed an injunction on May 20, 2008 against the HDI, the Montours, and six other individuals from Six Nations who had allegedly been involved in stopping development in Brantford. The injunction was based upon the claim that:\n\u2026irreparable harm to the reputation of the city of Brantford [has been caused] as a result of the unlawful actions of the defendants including: cancellations of planned developments; loss of prospective or future investment and development in the city owing to the stigma of aboriginal protests whose effect has been, and was intended by the defendants to be, a general impression in the business community that the city of Brantford is not a stable environment in which to do business owing to the continuing unlawful activities of the defendants; reduction of provincial infrastructure investment in the city; and decline in respect for the lawful authority of the city and the rule of law.11\nThe injunction demanded that the defendants pay $110 million in damages and sought to restrain the defendants from \u201cdisrupting, obstructing, and impeding, or otherwise interfering\u201d with the development of land within city limits. The injunction also sought to force the Brantford police \u2013 who have been very circumspect in taking any action against Six Nations \u2013 to arrest anyone contravening its provisions. At the same time, the city of Brantford also sought \u201ca declaration that the Six Nations of the Grand River Band of Indians, the Six Nations Council, the Six Nations Confederacy Council, and the Haudenosaunee Development Institute have no right, title or interest in any lands situated within the city of Brantford\u2026\u201d12 This declaration would have the effect of making it clear (in the eyes of the Canadian state and especially the police) that indigenous groups \u201chave no claim or colour of right permitting them to obstruct or interfere with access to, interfere with or prevent development of, or request or require development or other fees or charges of any kind in relation to land situated in the city of Brantford and that any such activities are unlawful and of no force and effect whatsoever.\u201d13 With this last motion, the city sought to eliminate in one stroke all claims relating to land within Brantford\u2019s city limits.\nA central theme in the City\u2019s submission was their inability to stop the protests by recourse to police action. The city has been frustrated by the fact that both its own police force and the OPP have exercised operational discretion in refusing to arrest the Montours and other protesters due to fears that the conflict will escalate and cause a repeat of the Caledonia situation. Indeed, whenever native protesters have arrived at a construction site, the police have requested that the workers cease work so as to defuse the situation and forestall the arrival of more members of the community. Deeply disturbed by this state of affairs, the city\u2019s motion for an injunction criticizes the Brantford police for failing to arrest the people of Six Nations, noting that:\n...the defendants know that merely by threatening private developers with protests, they can effectively obstruct public rights of way since local police forces, fearing a breach of the peace and concerned with public safety, will intervene to prevent private developers from accessing their own lands and conducting lawful activities on such lands.14\nThe motion goes on to claim that \u201cdevelopers and their agents, contractors and employees are becoming increasingly agitated and frustrated\u201d and that this frustration is not only being directed at native protesters but also at \u201cthe police who are perceived as facilitating the continuation of the defendants\u2019 unlawful activities.\u201d15 With Six Nations activists gaining momentum from their successes, and with its own police force unable or unwilling to implement its directives, the City of Brantford is looking for support from other branches of the Canadian state.\nDue to the \u201cincreased frequency of, and sites affected by, the defendant\u2019s unlawful activities\u201d the motion claims that \u201ca physical confrontation and disturbance of the peace or riot is inevitable and imminent.\u201d16 Since Brantford has only 150 police officers, \u201cthe force will not be able to effectively protect public safety when the full-scale disturbance or riot occurs.\u201d Even though Six Nations has always occupied building sites peacefully and without using weapons, they have shown great resolve in holding their ground when attacked by police or anti-native protesters. In the April 20, 2006 Ontario OPP raid on Kanenhstaton, unarmed Six Nations community members physically drove off several dozen police officers armed with automatic rifles, tear gas grenades, pepper spray, and tasers. Lacking the offensive capacities of the OPP, the City of Brantford knows that their only other resource is the Canadian Armed Forces. For this reason, the city\u2019s injunction makes explicit reference to section 275 of the National Defence Act, which states that:\nThe Canadian Forces, any unit or other element thereof and any officer or non-commissioned member, with material, are liable to be called out for service in aid of the civil power in any case in which a riot or disturbance of the peace, beyond the powers of the civil authorities to suppress, prevent or deal with and requiring that service, occurs or is, in the opinion of an attorney general, considered as likely to occur.17\nUsing precisely this language, the city requested that a Superior Court Justice judge send a notice to the Attorney General of Ontario indicating that \u201cthe services of the Canadian Forces are required in aid of the civil power because a disturbance of the peace or riot is occurring or is likely to occur\u201d in Brantford.18 While this part of the injunction won\u2019t be heard until December 2008, it is significant that the Brantford City Council has decided that the breaking of Six Nations power is important enough to justify military action and the possibility of a confrontation on the scale of the 1990 Oka crisis.\nOn May 30, 2008 over 350 people from Six Nations protested the injunction outside the Brantford courthouse. On June 2 Justice Taylor appointed a judge to hear all motions in the case in greater detail. In the interim he decided that the terms of the Brantford City Council injunction would stand and that the plaintiffs would be \u201crequired to comply with the law prohibiting interference with an owner\u2019s lawful use and enjoyment of property.\u201d\nConstruction resumed at development sites for several weeks until almost 200 people in a 70-vehicle convoy, led by Six Nations Confederacy Chiefs, once again shut down all of the sites named in the injunction.19 The direct involvement of the traditional leadership of the community \u2013 who have historically steered clear of any open conflict with Canadian authorities since the Indian Act was imposed at Six Nations by the RCMP in 1924 \u2013 signaled that a new stage of mobilization had been reached.20 The Brantford police, who seemed to be aware of the significance of Confederacy leadership of the protests, chose not to enforce the newly passed injunction.\nIn addition to the Confederacy assuming direct political leadership, grassroots initiatives within Six Nations \u2013 such as the Haudenosaunee Men\u2019s and Women\u2019s Councils \u2013 have also emerged in recent months. These groups provide an accessible avenue for members of the community to organize together in a way that both respects Haudenosaunee traditions and allows for broad community participation in direct actions.21 On August 6, a group of 60 people from the Men\u2019s Council shut down a $500-million construction site operated by King and Benton due to concerns over ecological practices that were brought to the attention of Six Nations by local grassroots non-native environmental activists.\nAccording to some sources, Six Nations direct actions have caused over $1.7 billion in economic damage to the local economy since the 2006 reclamation began. In addition to the disruption of the King and Benton site, Six Nations has shut down a $125-million Hydro One expansion in Caledonia, the development of 4,000 homes in Caledonia valued at $880 million, the development of 85 townhouses in Hagersville valued at $20 million, a $275-million wind-farm, a Wal-Mart development in Dunnville, and a total of $590 million worth of other developments in Brantford.22\nDoing the Job of the Settler State\nIn Brantford, the usual guarantor of private property rights \u2013 the capitalist state \u2013 has so far proved unable to break the power of Six Nations protesters. As a result, a political vacuum has been created. Enter Gary McHale, a 46-year-old under-unemployed web designer who has spent the past two years building a movement in the non-native communities surrounding Six Nations. Although McHale\u2019s analysis of the underlying situation has lacked any historical context concerning the nation to nation diplomatic agreements that the Haudenosaunee Confederacy entered into with European powers including the British Crown, the political focus of McHale\u2019s campaign has been the effective loss of Canadian state sovereignty to the \u201cstate of exception\u201d created by recent Six Nations direct action. According to McHale, people from Six Nations have been breaking Canadian laws (thereby implying that they are Canadian citizens and should be held to account by those laws), and a system of \u201ctwo-tiered\u201d justice now exists in the province of Ontario because police officers are unable to enforce laws against native protesters carrying out direct actions. The failure of police officers to immediately intervene to stop native direct actions is, according to McHale, an expression of \u201crace-based policing.\u201d Citing Martin Luther King, Jr., McHale endorses non-violent direct action as an appropriate strategy for the people of Caledonia and Brantford to \u201cregain\u201d their legal rights as Canadian citizens.23\nMcHale fails to understand that there are actually two conflicting rules of law at work in this situation, since the people of Six Nations have never relinquished their sovereignty and have refused to become Canadian citizens. Their traditional forms of governance, suppressed by the Canadian government in 1924, have remained in continuous operation and are now being recognized by federal and provincial negotiators as a result of the direct actions that secured Kanenhstaton. Without publicly recognizing that the direct action protests he critiques as \u201cextortion, violence and terrorism\u201d are actually a struggle between the competing claims of two sovereign nations, McHale has steadily built a grassroots movement with the aim of pressuring local state officials to undermine Haudenosaunee claims to sovereignty by criminalizing their resistance, and demanding that all Six Nations claims be processed by institutions and structures set up and administered by the Canadian state according to its law.\nMcHale\u2019s most recent efforts have culminated in the creation of a grassroots network of non-native activists called Canadian Advocates for Charter Equality (CANACE), which claims a membership of over 100 people.24 One of the principal aims of this group is to \u201cdo the work that the police won\u2019t do\u201d by gathering surveillance footage and pressing their own private criminal charges against Six Nations activists engaged in direct action. In June 2008, McHale appeared before a justice of the peace to provide the evidence required to file over 30 criminal charges against Six Nations activists, including charges of \u201cextortion,\u201d \u201cmischief,\u201d and \u201cterrorism.\u201d In doing this work, McHale, who lives rent-free in a new home in the Hamilton region courtesy of \u201can anonymous benefactor,\u201d is positioning himself to benefit from the unfolding financial crisis created by Six Nations sovereignty.25 McHale is forthright about the fact that he is building CANACE as a vehicle for social protest that can act on behalf of business interests in the area.26\nCANACE is able to bring a human face to the problem. Through public events designed to gain media attention the Canadian public can see the changes needed ... CANACE can do what business and associations cannot do. We can organize peaceful protests that challenge the official positions of the police and government that has allowed repeated violence and illegal occupations to become the norm in the province of Ontario.27\nIn May 2008, as the struggle between the Haudenosaunee activists and developers in Brantford intensified, CANACE produced a 50-page document entitled Legalized Myths of Illegal Occupations: the Truth about Police Discretion, Duty to Consult and the Colour of Right. The document reports on a wide range of court decisions, quotes sections from Canada\u2019s Criminal Code and Constitution, and provides advice to property owners about how they can file private prosecutions against protesting natives. Claiming that \u201cCANACE is like an iceberg; our most effective activities are rarely visible,\u201d the report brags about how they have \u201cused private prosecutions, small claims court actions, complaints to bodies such as the Ontario Human Rights Commission, the ombudsman\u2019s office and the Ontario Civilian Commission on Police Services as tools to oppose race-based policing.\u201d28\nJust as Six Nations is at the forefront of native activism in Canada, McHale and CANACE are the most sophisticated grassroots anti-native political force currently active. They are actively making links with other non-native communities elsewhere in Canada affected by land claims (such as Ipperwash and Deseronto) and, because they mix activism with research and ongoing lobbying efforts aimed at all levels of government, they are able to push governments from below and get them to take action that they might not otherwise see as politically feasible. Indeed, CANACE has managed to shift the public political debate around native land rights to the right. While McHale and his group are very careful to stay away from overt forms of racism and hate speech, their work provides fertile ground on which neo-Nazi and other far right groups can organize. Paul Fromm, one of Canada\u2019s leading neo-Nazis, has appeared at many of McHale\u2019s protests and demonstrations, as have approximately a dozen members of the neo-Nazi Northern Alliance group based in London, Ontario. In this context, if non-native activists don\u2019t step up to actively resist neo-Nazi groups and provide alternative sources of political analysis and leadership, these groups may succeed in implanting themselves in the largely white towns surrounding Six Nations.29\nThe Possibilities of Victory\nThe current conjuncture in Brantford involves an unstable contest between two competing powers. For the city of Brantford, the definition of victory and the means to achieve it are relatively clear: the bylaws and the injunction defending the sanctity of private property must be upheld, and doing so will require state repression to defeat and demoralize Six Nations activists without provoking a larger conflagration. In order to acheive these goals, the current strategy seems to involve the targeted arrests of rank-and-file Six Nations activists. To date, more than 60 people from Six Nations have been criminally charged since the April 2006 reclamation in Caledonia.\nFor Six Nations, the strategic possibilities of victory are much more complex. First, the question of what exactly \u201cvictory\u201d entails is itself up for debate in the community. However, statements made by the Confederacy and discussions with members of the Haudenosaunee Men\u2019s Council, an immediate resolution of the conflict in Brantford might include a moratorium on development of lands subject to a land claim, the creation of a leasing structure that transfers revenue and title deed to Six Nations on land that is developed, and the construction of mechanisms that provide for oversight by Six Nations on all environmentally-sensitive questions related to land development. Six Nations also wants recognition of their sovereignty as enshrined in the Two Row Wampum and the Silver Covenant Chain agreements, treaties that were made between Six Nations and various European states in the 17th century.\nWhile these longer-term goals will require constitutional resolution at the federal level, there are two obvious ways in which Six Nations could achieve their more immediate goals. First, the blockade of development sites in Brantford could be escalated to the point at which economic losses would pressure the provincial and federal governments to make meaningful concessions. But because the land implicated in Six Nations claims is so large and so valuable, and because people at Six Nations have consistently refused cash offers in exchange for their land and have held out for the return of the land itself, this possibility seems unlikely. And because Brantford is not an economic powerhouse in the Ontario economy, it seems quite likely that the Ontario and federal governments will prefer to simply bail out individual developers (as they did with Henco Industries on the Douglas Creek Estates site) while development continues unabated elsewhere on the Haldimand tract.\nA second way for Six Nations to win is if they can escalate their blockades in a manner that continues to financially hurt the City of Brantford while also making clear that attempts at police or military intervention would be costly and impractical means of resolving the situation. By escalating direct action tactics and mobilizing a larger number of people from Six Nations, this approach might force the City of Brantford to recognize Six Nations land rights and sovereignty through some kind of wide-ranging and innovative agreement with the Confederacy and the HDI. Such an approach may be more achievable since the City of Brantford is a more responsive government institution than the Ontario or federal governments, and since the land claims within Brantford are inherently more resolvable than those over the whole of the Haldimand tract. If some kind of agreement was made that was agreeable to Six Nations, this approach could create a whole new precedent for the resolution of land claims in Canada.\nEither way, the key question for non-native activists will be the role of the non-native population in Brantford, which can either support the municipal government in cracking down on Six Nations or work in alliance with the people of Six Nations to halt development and improve local environmental conditions. So far, the Six Nations protests in Brantford have not inconvenienced the city\u2019s population to the same degree as they did in Caledonia, where the town\u2019s main thoroughfare was blocked for three months. Many residents also recognize the historic role of Six Nations in founding Brantford \u2013 after all, the town itself is named after renowned Six Nations leader Joseph Brant, and a large statue of Brant and chiefs of each of the Six Nations overlooks the town\u2019s central square. These two factors seem to have made it more difficult for McHale and his group to build the same kind of base in Brantford that they have in Caledonia. At the same time, the absence of a major reclamation site similar to the one in Caledonia has meant that many non-native solidarity activists have been unsure about how to relate to Six Nations in an ongoing fashion.\nDespite this limitation, important initiatives by non-native activists aimed at building and maintaining ongoing relationships with Six Nations activists while also attempting to relate to the local non-native population are taking place. One of the most significant examples of this work has been the Brantford-based group Two Row Understanding through Education. Founded by Jim Windle (a non-native staff member of the Six Nations Tekawennake newspaper) and Marilyn Vegso (a rank-and-file activist with the Canadian Auto Workers) the group has organized a half dozen public talks aimed at educating non-native people about the specifics of Six Nations land claims, the experiences of native people at the Mohawk Institute Residential School, the history of the Haudenosaunee, the failings of mainstream media reporting on the conflict, the possibilities for alliance-building between local environmentalists and indigenous activists and other topics. Attended by an average of about 150 people, the events provide an important space for Brantford residents to learn about the real history of their city and to discuss these issues with people from Six Nations.\nThe second area of ongoing solidarity work has been led by an alliance created by radical environmentalist activists, members of the Black Action Defense Committee in Toronto, and representatives of the First Nations Solidarity Working Group of the Canadian Union of Public Employees Local 3903. This network has supported direct actions aimed at stopping development in Brantford and has worked together with the Haudenosaunee Men\u2019s Council to organize a gathering that brought out several hundred natives and non-natives for a weekend long gathering in August 2008 at Chiefswood Park in Six Nations. Ongoing work by individuals from Guelph and Toronto has also supported people from Six Nations facing criminal charges as a result of attempts to stop developments in Brantford and Caledonia.\nDespite their importance as starting points, these initiatives fall far short of what is needed to help Six Nations win their objectives and strengthen grassroots non-native activism in Brantford. While specific organizing efforts have been important, the non-native left has largely failed to think through the larger strategic questions about how non-native allies can effectively contribute to the struggle. In particular, we have failed to build functioning mass based organizations and a political base in the non-native communities surrounding Six Nations and to do the kind of practical and theoretical work that is necessary to counter the actions and ideology of Gary McHale and CANACE.\nOne example that demonstrates the very real possibilities that exist for linking indigenous struggles in Brantford to non-native class struggles at a deeper level can be seen in the relationships built between CAW workers and activists from Six Nations during a recent strike at the Brantford Casino. Recognizing that the CAW sent members to the frontlines of the reclamation struggle two years ago, a delegation of activists from Six Nations walked the picket lines in solidarity with the 700 Casino workers who went on strike in June 2008. As they went into the strike, the CAW workers were inspired by Six Nations\u2019 ability to stand up to developers and the police; many openly talked about using the same direct action tactics to win concessions from their employer. Building links between indigenous struggles and working-class struggles is difficult, but possible. It is possible because of the non-native interest in the improved environmental conditions victories for Six Nations would entail, and also because \u2013 whether or not it is recognized \u2013 both groups share a common enemy in the capitalist class developing and running the City of Brantford, the Province of Ontario, and the Canadian state.\nWith or without consistent and coherent support from non-natives, the struggle of Six Nations will continue. The fundamental problem that Six Nations faces is that, while traditional governance structures have been greatly strengthened over the past two years, there still remain many fundamental disagreements within the community. These include questions arising from the long history of factionalism within the community, as well as broader disagreements on questions of political strategy. In particular, some in the community feel that the HDI lacks a popular political mandate and sufficient accountability and transparency in its dealings with developers. As in all social movements, debates exist about how fast to move and within what kind of political framework. Without going into detail about the specifics of these many disagreements (most of which have long-involved histories and could not be appropriately discussed here), it is enough to say that the problem of internal factionalism is one of the most serious obstacles limiting Six Nations\u2019 ability to move beyond the unresolved and contradictionary character of their gains in Brantford.\nThe fact that these struggles have been carried out according to the principles of direct action (as opposed to negotiation or purely legal strategies) has resulted in the sharpening of contradictions within the community. This is because direct action immediately raises questions of power and political sovereignty, while privileging the role of the grassroots activists carrying it out. For many radical non-native activists it\u2019s difficult to imagine what an anti-capitalist, popular, and democratic sovereignty would look like. More to the point, a question arises as to whether such radical action is even possible given the state of class politics in contemporary North American settler society.\nIn contrast, indigenous communities are demonstrating a growing willingness to engage in grassroots resistance and direct action. In communities like Six Nations, where traditional governance structures still operate, direct action has revitalized these bodies. Despite these opportunities, the precise political content of that \u201ctraditionalism\u201d remain unresolved questions. How this new sovereign \u201cproto-state\u201d might organize itself and relate to internal and external capitalist dynamics raises questions with major consequences for community members. What\u2019s so interesting about the Six Nations example is that a process of decolonization is clearly underway and that, despite all manner of internal contradictions, it will have a significant impact on other anti-colonial struggles movements the Canadian state and on anti-capitalist activists thinking about the transformative possibilities of direct action politics.\n1 As a non-native activist who has been organizing around the Six Nations struggle since the April 2006 reclamation, my understanding of political dynamics at Six Nations have benefited greatly from conversations I\u2019ve had with a wide range of people I have worked with there. I would especially like to thank George, Hazel, Ruby, Adam, Vince, Rhonda, Ken, Dawn, Missy, and Wes for their comments on earlier versions of this article. Responsibility for any errors or omissions in this text rest with me.\n2 The Six Nations penchant for direct action protests should not be surprising, as their own political self-definition as a sovereign nation precludes them from considering the usual tactics that citizens would use to pressure the Canadian government \u2013 lobbying MPs, circulating petitions, carrying out one-day protest marches, for example. For activists at Six Nations, the land in question is their land, and they are merely acting in accordance with their own laws when they reclaim it.\n3 \u201cInjunction Case on Hold; Natives to Return to Court Friday,\u201d Brantford Expositor, May 24, 2008.\n4 The legal strategy that the Brantford City Council relied upon was developed by Fasken Martineau, the law firm behind the injunction which put Ardoch Algonquin protest leader Bob Lovelace in jail for 104 days for opposing the activity of uranium mining company Frontenac Ventures on Algonquin lands earlier in 2008.\n5 City of Brantford Injunction, Superior Court of Justice - Ontario, CV-08-334, p. 4.\n6 It is important to note that Six Nations has always maintained that it would not eject non-natives living on Six Nations land from their homes. The targets of Six Nations protests have been the corporations seeking to develop on lands on their territory.\n7 I consider the return of indigenous lands to the collective communal control of the Haudenosaunee Confederacy to be implicitly anti-capitalist even though this could result in Six Nations accumulating a significant rentier income, because the use of this income has always been intended for the \u201cperpetual care and maintenance\u201d of the whole population, not for individual capitalist accumulation.\n8 City of Brantford Injunction, p. 94.\n9 Karen Best, Dunville Chronicle, November 21, 2007.\n10 In addition to these active disruptions of ongoing developments in Brantford, John Frabotta, the Director of Economic Development for the City of Brantford, has indicated that a number of corporations including Dancor Development, Abrigo Canada and Ardency Corporation that were planning to make significant investments in building new facilities have either delayed or halted construction due to concerns around the threats of native blockades and work stoppages.

        "raw_content": "Chelsea Houska slips further away from 'Teen Mom 2': Now sells T-shirts slamming the drama\nChelsea Houska, now DeBoer, seems to be distancing herself from 'Teen Mom 2' but t-shirts may be a new way for her to use fame from show.\nIs Chelsea Houska no longer intersted in \"TM2?\"\nChelsea Houska's exposure seems to be waning when it comes to getting face time on the screen for the \"Teen Mom 2\" show. Fans didn't see too much of her on the \"Teen Mom 2 Reunion Show\" as well. According to the latest reports, Chelsea left the set of the reunion show with her husband while making it well known she's not into the drama anymore.\nChelsea's husband, Cole DeBoer, offered up parting words while exiting the set of the reunion show. He said: all this \"drama is for nerds.\" It seems he may have coined a term upon taking his leave.\nWords of wisdom now on T-shirt?\nApparently, the husband and wife team thought Cole's parting words were ones of wisdom. They are now selling their lack of enthusiasm for the drama on the show via T-shirts.\nCole's \"nerd\" sentence is now a slogan for T-shirts that Chelsea has offered up to the masses for purchase. It seems the drama may be beneath this couple when it comes to the show, but not when it comes to selling T-shirts. You can check out those shirts below in the Twitter post.\nCheck out our shirts! MAndi and Chelsea Teamed up and designed these shirts. If you watch teen mom you know exactly what it means. You can check them out @TTTyanktonsd ....And look at that cute little baby bump! pic.twitter.com/UitOSyDW2O\n\u2014 Rita's (@ritahouska) June 7, 2018\nThe drama on \"Teen Mom 2\" is what gives this reality show its entertainment value, and it wasn't all that long ago when Chelsea herself was in the center of that drama.\nBut these veteran \"Teen Mom\" cast members are in their mid to late twenties, which is far from being a \"Teen Mom\" today. It stands to reason some will grow-up and grow out of the drama.\nDistancing herself from 'Teen Moms'?\nHidden Remote is pondering Chelsea's moves. They ask if she is \"distancing herself\" from \"Teen Mom.\" According to this media site, Chelsea has not been seen as much as she once was in front of the cameras and she and her husband have made it clear they don't want the drama. With that said, they don't seem to mind affiliating themselves with the show for a new venture they've embarked on which seemingly entails slamming the show with a slogan on a T-shirt.\nChelsea still has a lot of fans out there, and maybe that is what she is banking on when embarking on this new T-shirt venture.\nThe T-shirt has \"Drama is for the Nerds\" written on the front and below that it says \"Chelsea and Cole.\"\nReality stars getting a kick-start\nIt is not unheard of for reality stars to branch out on their own to make money selling goods with their name attached to it. According to Biography, Bethenny Frankel, who gained fame as a cast member on \"Real Housewives of New York City\" launched a successful cocktail business, Skinny Girl.\nBethenny's first brush with fame came as a chef when she appeared on \"The Apprentice - Martha Stewart\" show, and from there Bravo cast her on \"Real Housewives.\" Her previous attempts at creating merchandise for the masses faltered, but that was before her \"Housewives\" gig. It wasn't until her Skinny Girl pre-mixed cocktails were marketed that she became a successful merchandising mogul.\nSome might say that the \"Teen Mom\" cast members are just a younger version of the \"Real Housewives\" stars as drama seems to drive both shows. It worked for Bethenny; maybe it will work for Chelsea.\nIt doesn't sound as if Chelsea is over-ambitious when it comes to selling these T-shirts. Hidden Remote mentions: \"It is a shirt that people can buy if they want.\" There is nothing more said about any advertising or a push on marketing this item.",

        "title": "The Provider Voice: How PGHD Improves Care Communication | Validic",
        "raw_content": "The Provider Voice: How PGHD Improves Care Communication\nWe spoke with Stephanie Caddell, a registered nurse with years of experience working with patients in a remote care setting. Stephanie shared her thoughts on how patient-generated health data opens up communication lines to ultimately improve patient outcomes. Read the interview below.\nHow does the collection of PGHD impact the way you interact with and engage patients (as compared to a traditional model of care)?\nWhen patients gather their own data remotely, it allows for more time to be focused on teaching the patient about their health and their information. This leads to a better understanding of how their lifestyle and choices affect their data, and what they can do to change it.\nUsing this data also creates a communication line, or feedback loop, that gives patients quick turnaround for them to see improvement, which further encourages behavior change if needed.\nHow important is creating a feedback loop between patients and providers? How does it impact the ability to educate patients in near real-time?\nProviding a feedback loop between patients and providers creates trust, and also allows a patient feel like an active player in their care management. This reduces the risk of a patient being nervous to ask a question, which could potentially save their life. Imagine the patients today who don\u2019t want to \u201cbother\u201d their physician\u2026 only to have the lack of asking a question lead to that patient\u2019s detriment.\nWith this feedback loop and trust comes the ability for the patient to believe and understand what their provider is educating them on, which can lead to life-saving, proactive interventions the patients are capable of doing themselves. If, for example, a patient is dealing with high blood pressure, and the provider and patient have come up with an action plan for the patient to self-administer a particular blood pressure lowering pill, this alone can prevent an ER visit \u2013 saving thousands of dollars for the patient (and potentially saving their life).\nDoes the remote care model open new lines of communication between the patient and clinician? In what way?\nRemote care communication between the patient and clinician is a wonderful, positive two-way street. There are so many benefits! For one, the patient may be able choose how they best communicate. Often times, patients prefer to communicate via email or text versus in-person or via telephone. This allows patients who may otherwise be disinterested in their self-care to be more apt to take the time to invest in conversation. If the method of communication is easier and more convenient for the patient, they will be more likely to actively participate in their health.\nSecondly, patients become more trusting of their clinician because of the amount of personal communication that occurs in a remote monitoring program. They start to look at their clinician as their own personal health coach and friend, instead of \u201cjust another physician/nurse/therapist\u201d telling them what to do.\nThirdly, as clinicians we can often fall into the trap of getting rote in our role as caregiver and educator. Having open lines of communication for remote monitoring allows for more frequent, more open communication\u2013 building a relationship between the clinician and patient or caregiver and allowing more investment for both parties.\nWhen we have access to this valuable data, we\u2019re better able to understand our patients\u2019 daily lives. This helps us to build relationships with our patients and make communicating more open and honest. And, my discussions of the patient\u2019s self-generated data with them helps to most effectively express how their actions affect their outcomes and goals.\nRead more from our conversation with Stephanie Caddell, RN, in the second post, where she shares her outlook on how leveraging PGHD in remote care programs can improve care efficiency.",

        "raw_content": "The Technologist Voice: Developing Solutions That Make the Difference\nOct 29, 2018 | Blog, Hospitals and Health Systems\nBy Brian Carter, SVP, Product\nWhether we\u2019re talking about complex diagnoses and treatment plans or wellness objectives, or anything in between, we tend to see the same pattern emerge in a person\u2019s journey to achieve a given health goal. Most success stories like this consist of the following:\nSo, it seems simple, right? My story sounded easy, but it wasn\u2019t. There were times when I hit plateaus losing weight where I almost gave up. Quitting smoking, well, that was a several-year parade of repeated, discouraging failures before I found lasting success. The real progression is less linear, and usually more like 1-2, 1-2-3, 1, 1, 1-2-3-4. What could technology do to help people go straight through the steps, connecting them with the information, knowledge, and people best-suited to meet their needs in real time?\nOne of my managers years ago was also a colonel in the Air Force Reserves, because being a full-time HIT executive wasn\u2019t challenging enough, I guess. She would often use the phrase \u201cforce multiplier.\u201d A force multiplier is something that makes every person on the field X times more effective as the other side; \u201cone of my medics is worth five of theirs\u201d with better training, better intelligence, and better equipment as their force multipliers.\nSo, \u201cwhy\u201d do I do what I do as a technologist in healthcare? I want to arm everyone with their own health force multiplier \u2013 so they have every advantage they can to attain the goals of their plan. Whether it\u2019s the person trying to get healthy, a nurse care manager trying to help address the needs of a growing population, or the physician with more patients than time, technology can take some of the load completely, and simplify other tasks substantially.\nHow do we stay focused on the \u201cwhy?\u201d\nHow do we stay focused on our \u201cwhy\u201d when the support tickets are piling up, the project plan is behind schedule, and ten stakeholders want ten different things? For me, it\u2019s critical to get on the field. You can\u2019t multiply a force if you don\u2019t understand what they do. Walk the halls with a nurse. Stay at the office until long after dinner time with a physician who\u2019s trying to get all their computerized documentation from the day done. Hang out with a patient who\u2019s using six different tools to track all the data around their diabetes condition. The important thing is to get an understanding of what their goals are, and what\u2019s standing in the way of achieving them. For example, if you spent a couple hours with a diabetes patient, you\u2019ll likely walk away with a couple key observations: a) they don\u2019t think of themselves as a \u201cpatient\u201d and b) they\u2019re not going to get super excited about new apps and gadgets the way people in the HIT world do.\nOur industry talks a lot about \u201cpatient engagement\u201d and wanting to \u201cbetter-engage patients.\u201d In reality, virtually no one wants to be a patient. Spending more time with patients would reveal that our real job is to spend less time with them, and that the time we spend with them should be higher value than gathering information, typing it into computers, and coordinating next steps. As technologists, what can we do to help that happen?\nThe next time you get in an argument about whether it\u2019s worth the extra engineering hours to pull those demographic data points over from another part of the application rather than making the user key them in again, the answer is yes. If automated data gathering can be done instead of having to call someone on the phone, and that task is done hundreds of times a week, automating it won\u2019t just make someone\u2019s life easier, it\u2019ll substantially multiply the odds of it happening at all.\nThe ultimate goal is to make supportive technology invisible in daily life. I was recently watching an episode of Shark Tank and the founder of Ring Security, Jamie Siminoff, said something that stuck with me. A product was being pitched that I thought was pretty cool, but he didn\u2019t share my opinion. He said that the reason the Ring doorbell works is because a visitor to your house does the same thing they\u2019ve always done: push the doorbell button. The product being pitched would require everyone interacting with it to learn a new behavior and do something they didn\u2019t have to do before (an extra effort) without getting any value themselves for doing it. Because the technology wasn\u2019t invisible and intruded on everyone that interacted with it, Siminoff just didn\u2019t think it would take off.\nThis industry has seen many people and companies with the best of intentions create technology that\u2019s really cool, but doesn\u2019t solve a problem without creating a new burden somewhere else in the value chain. Staying focused on the why, understanding the whole picture of how people will use your technology, and diligently refining the solution with real-world feedback might sound like Product Management 101.\nYet, remaining focused on these ideas is critical \u2013 and when you\u2019re thinking about the minute details of product engineering, stakeholder demands, and project plans, it can fall to the wayside. More and more people are developing chronic conditions that require them to spend more time in the doctor\u2019s office, more time worrying about their health, and more time working to change their behavior. My why is to make this even just a little simpler. What\u2019s your why? Let us know at hello@validic.com.\nRead Brian\u2019s last blog here.",

Estefan became one of the first mainstream Hispanic artists to crossover between English and Spanish language music paving the way for countless other Latin artists to follow.\nBilly Frank, Jr. (posthumous)\nBilly Frank, Jr. was a tireless advocate for Indian treaty rights and environmental stewardship, whose activism paved the way for the \u201cBoldt decision,\u201d which reaffirmed tribal co-management of salmon resources in the state of Washington. Frank led effective \u201cfish-ins,\u201d which were modeled after sit-ins of the civil rights movement, during the tribal \u201cfish wars\u201d of the 1960s and 1970s. His magnetic personality and tireless advocacy over more than five decades made him a revered figure both domestically and abroad. Frank was the recipient of many awards, including the Martin Luther King, Jr. Distinguished Service Award for Humanitarian Achievement. Frank left in his wake an Indian Country strengthened by greater sovereignty and a nation fortified by his example of service to one\u2019s community, his humility, and his dedication to the principles of human rights and environmental sustainability.\nLee Hamilton has been one of the most influential voices on international relations and American national security over the course of his more than 40 year career.

Johnson is a pioneer in American space history. A NASA mathematician, Johnson\u2019s computations have influenced every major space program from Mercury through the Shuttle program. Johnson was hired as a research mathematician at the Langley Research Center with the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA), the agency that preceded NASA, after they opened hiring to African-Americans and women. Johnson exhibited exceptional technical leadership and is known especially for her calculations of the 1961 trajectory for Alan Shepard\u2019s flight (first American in space), the 1962 verification of the first flight calculation made by an electronic computer for John Glenn\u2019s orbit (first American to orbit the earth), and the 1969 Apollo 11 trajectory to the moon. In her later NASA career, Johnson worked on the Space Shuttle program and the Earth Resources Satellite and encouraged students to pursue careers in science and technology fields.\nWillie Mays was a professional baseball player, spending most of his 22 seasons as a center fielder for the New York and San Francisco Giants. Mays ended his career with 660 home runs, making him the fifth all-time record-holder. Known as \u201cThe Say Hey Kid,\u201d Mays was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1979 and landed on MLB\u2019s All-Time team. In 1951, Mays became one of the first African-American players in Major League Baseball history and won the Rookie of the Year award. Mays also served his country in the United States Army. In his return to Major League Baseball, Mays won the MVP award, and in the 1954 World Series Mays led the Giants to a surprise victory, while making one of the most spectacular plays in sports history, later known simply as \u201cThe Catch.\u201d\nBarbara Mikulski is a lifelong public servant, who has held elected office since 1971. She became the longest serving female Senator in 2011, the longest serving woman in Congress in 2012, and the first female Senator to chair the Senate Appropriations Committee in 2012.

Ruckelshaus is a dedicated public servant who has worked tirelessly to protect public health and combat global challenges like climate change. As the first and fifth Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency, under Presidents Nixon and Reagan, he not only shaped the guiding principles of the agency, but also worked diligently to bring the public into the decision making process. Among the EPA\u2019s key early achievements under his leadership was a nationwide ban on the pesticide DDT and an agreement with the automobile industry to require catalytic converters, which significantly reduced automobile pollution. He also demonstrated his commitment to public service and integrity as Deputy Attorney General. During the Watergate crisis, Ruckelshaus and Attorney General Elliot Richardson chose to resign rather than fire the Watergate special prosecutor. Their principled stance was a pivotal moment for the Justice Department and galvanized public opinion for upholding the rule of law. He continues to advance his legacy of collaborative problem solving in his current role at the University of Washington and Washington State University.\nStephen Sondheim is one of the country\u2019s most influential theater composers and lyricists. His work has helped define American theater with shows such as Company, West Side Story, Gypsy, Sweeney Todd, Sunday in the Park with George, and Into the Woods.

        "raw_content": "HEY FRIEND, my name\u2019s Tori!!\nI am mostly known for photography but, trust me, I have a thousand and one passions. People often refer to me as enthusiastic, intuitive, and always up for a challenge (maybe even an adventure)! I'm 5'9 and have the personality to go along with it. I may be an introvert at heart but I know how to light up a room.\nI love serving people through photography. Capturing memories for others is so special. My heart is for more than photos, it's for people. As someone who feels so deeply, I know how special it is to capture those authentic moments for you and yours. I want you, as a couple or individual, to remember this season of your life vividly though my photos.\nIf you are looking for someone to snap a few shots and go away forever, I'm going to tell you right now I\u2019m not your girl. Why? Because I want to friends with you! I want to connect with you and keep in touch long after your wedding or session. Let's pop a bottle of champagne and talk about your story before we even start snapping photos. I'm not a small-talk person, I want to know your heart and, through that, I can capture it better so these photos are as genuine as possible.\nI photograph, inspire and serve people who are yearning for something beautiful to remember years from now. I am so blessed to give people the gift of paused moments in pictures.\nWhen I'm not busy capturing all these gorgeous people, you can catch me spending time with my sweet FIANCE (that\u2019s right, I\u2019m a bride too), Chase, who might even show up to a few sessions to help. You might also find me on the road, traveling somewhere crazy and new. I have traveled to Thailand, Belgium and France, all in the past year! I love to travel. God made such a beautiful world, it would be a shame not to explore it a little. Speaking of beautiful places, I am obsessed with the beach. Sunsets on the beach make my heart sing.\nThink we could be friends? Let\u2019s chat more!\nfun facts, anyone??\nThroughout my childhood I loved capturing people through photos and videos. I was an avid Windows Movie Maker user. If you were to check my parents' hard drive, I guarantee you'd find hundreds upon hundreds of content that I created as young as nine years old. I loved the idea that I could look back on my captured memories years later. This idea has stuck with me through the years.\nNow, I capture those moments for others and create content that YOU can look back on one day.\nPeople are my purpose. I mentioned above that I am a passionate person, well I'm certainly passionate about people. It feels silly to call this a job. It is a whole lot deeper than that, this is a form of expression for me and a gift for you.\nMy approach is a little different. I want you to look and feel like yourself in my photos. Say goodbye to all things posed and proper when you choose me. I have a few tricks up my sleeve to get you laughing and smiling and glowing in front of the camera. Why? Because those are the moments you will want to remember. The poses aren't real, but having you two kiss with your teeth and burst out laughing, that's real life and it's what you will want to remember someday. Not only that, I don't use big lighting fixtures and crazy equipment, I only use natural lighting in my pictures.\nIn order to get you two comfortable with me, I might bring some coffee for us to enjoy before the session, just so we can get warmed up. I said it before and I will say it again, I want to be friends with you! You are not just a name in my calendar, no freaking way, I value you as a person and I want to give you the best experience possible!\nAm I the photographer for you? AHH, I sure hope so!\nIntroduce yourself and let me know how I can serve you!",

        "title": "Rosemary: A Culinary Delight \u2013 Vegetarian Nutrition",
        "raw_content": "Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis) is a gardeners delight. It is drought tolerant, requires little fertilizer and always looks crisp and graceful even on a hot summer day. The pine-scented bushy evergreen thrives in sunny locations, and loves well-drained soils. It is native to the sunny hillsides and open valleys along the Mediterranean coast of Portugal, Spain, Morocco and Tunisia.\nRosemary has strongly aromatic, needle-like foliage with small lavender-blue flowers that bloom in clusters in the late spring and early summer. The plant normally grows about 1 to 2 feet tall, but can grow as high as 6 feet. In warmer climates, rosemary does well as a hedge, or as a ground cover for slopes.\nRosemary was well known to the ancient Greeks and Romans. In the ancient world, it had a reputation for improving memory and rejuvenating the spirits. Greek scholars wore garlands of rosemary during examinations in order to improve their memory and concentration. Shakespeare also wrote that rosemary was good for the memory.\nAn ancient superstition led people to bind rosemary to their legs to relieve themselves of pain from gout. It was often used at funerals, in Christmas decorations, and at weddings. Rosemary was often given to the bride with the hope that she will enjoy a happy marriage.\nWhile rosemary is associated with various legends, it finds common use today as a fragrance in soaps, shampoos, hair conditioners, and bath lotions. The oil is used in perfumery, ointments, cosmetics, and aromatherapy. The dried leaves can also add fragrance to a potpourri.\nIn addition, rosemary is a valuable culinary herb. It is a member of the mint family, which includes other popular seasonings such as basil, oregano, sage, and thyme. Rosemary is a common ingredient in French and Italian dishes. It can be used to flavor stews, entrees, soups, and casseroles, and may be added to various dressings. It is a component of the popular Italian seasoning.\nRosemary can also be tastefully added to dishes that feature potatoes, squash, tomatoes, peas and carrots. When used sparingly, rosemary adds an interesting flavor to cakes, baked apples and biscuits. The flavor of rosemary is at its best when the leaves are harvested at the time the plant is in bloom. The youngest stems contain the leaves that are the most fragrant.\nThe fresh or dried leaves and flowering tops of rosemary are used for a variety of medicinal benefits. In traditional European medicine, rosemary has been used internally as a tonic, stimulant, and as a carminative to treat flatulence. It is also used to treat dyspepsia, mild gastrointestinal upsets, colds, headaches, and nervous tension. In India and China, rosemary leaves are used to treat headaches.\nEarly in American history rosemary was used as an antispasmodic, to stimulate the appetite and improve digestion. Today, rosemary is recognized for its ability to stimulate bile secretion and for its anti-inflammatory properties. People gargle rosemary tea to help heal mouth ulcers and canker sores.\nRosemary oil can be distilled from the leaves of the plant, mixed with a vegetable oil, and used for massage. Applied externally this oil is used for relief from muscular and arthritic pain. In Europe, rosemary oil is used to treat rheumatic conditions, bruises, and circulatory problems. When applied externally the oil appears to stimulate an increased blood supply. In addition, rosemary oil or some freshly cut sprigs can be added to bath water to soothe aching muscles and joints.\nRosemary leaf contains important phenolic components such as rosmarinic, chlorogenic, and caffeic acids, and a host of health-promoting flavonoids that possess strong antioxidant properties. The terpenoids in rosemary, such as rosmarinic acid, rosmanol, carnosol and ursolic acid provide effective anti-inflammatory benefits, while ursolic acid conveys anti-tumor properties.\nThe volatile oil of rosemary has some antiseptic properties. It contains a high percentage of 1,8-cineole (providing the fresh eucalyptus-like fragrance), and other major terpenoid components including \u201c-pinene, \u201c-terpineol, and camphor. The pleasant fragrance of rosemary is due largely to the presence of verbenone.\nRosemary extract has been shown to produce a significant decrease in the incidence of breast tumors that were induced in laboratory animals. Dr Dannenberg recently discovered that carnosol in rosemary extract can protect against cancer. Carnosol blocks the expression of the human gene responsible for making the enzyme COX-2. This enzyme normally plays an important role in the development of colon, breast and other cancers.\nThe British Herbal Pharmacopoeia reports that rosemary has antibacterial and antispasmodic action. An extract of rosemary can also produce an increase in bile secretion, thus aiding in fat digestion. The German Commission E approves the internal use of rosemary leaf for dyspeptic complaints and the external use as supportive therapy for rheumatic conditions and peripheral circulatory disorders.\nThere have been no reports of side effects from the use of rosemary. In addition, there are no interactions with conventional drugs. Care must be taken that rosemary oil be appropriately diluted before applying externally since it can cause irritation to the skin. Rosemary and its oil should be avoided during pregnancy because it may cause an abortion. For internal usage, the normal dosage is about 5 grams of chopped leaf or leaf powder.",

I still don\u2019t know which room I\u2019ve got in the new place because Dad and I both want the same one, but the point is I will not be here anymore, will not belong here anymore. According to legal papers. Ugh I have to change all my contact information don\u2019t I \u2026\nI am wondering if I will feel like I do still belong here once we move, if one day soon I\u2019ll have a time-stopping moment where I realise that I\u2019m never going home again. Or maybe I\u2019ll continue to feel, as I do now, that I need this change, and maybe even finally start to feel excited that we\u2019re in a new space. Or both at once.\nI am wondering if I will finally come up with a summary of my time spent in this house and it will hit all the resonant notes of loss and gratitude, of cathartic grief and hope, that I will find the right string of words to sum up 24 years in order to close them off and start the next however many years as though they\u2019re somehow different, a new story of my life. As somebody whose brain runs on narrative conventions, there\u2019s this expectation that today will be a momentous narrative moment, that all the closure and catharsis and \u201cthis is goodbye\u201d feelings will well up and spill out from inside of me, and the episode will end, and then the sequel will fall into place in order to continue the story, nice and neat and narratively satisfying. Because today is my last chance to make it happen.\nI\u2019m kinda happy it\u2019s not happening.\nI mean it\u2019s just much more interesting that way, isn\u2019t it? That life is not quite that predictable. That we don\u2019t fit into all the boxes we think we\u2019re supposed to, that we can surprise ourselves just by being ourselves. That the moment sometimes never comes, and the only sad thing about that is not being aware that The Moment is something I only know even happens because of books, movies, TV, videogames, music. Because of stories.\nWe just go on. We just continue. Life is not a story. It\u2019s not even a lot of stories. It\u2019s life.\nThough I do think some housewarming novel-revision is in order \u2026\nPosted in Uncategorized.\tTagged life goes on, life is not a story, life isn't how it is in books, the story of your life, you can't help but live\nLate-night musings on trigger warnings\nThey\u2019re a good thing, as far as I\u2019m concerned.\nI dunno, there\u2019s some people complaining about the idea that trigger warnings being added to university curricula or works of art, and that art \u201cshould be challenging\u201d or whatever, and call me crazy but I thought art and academia were about more than fucking shock-value.\nThe article above uses \u201cLolita\u201d as an example, and the writer\u2019s disappointment that, after being effectively spoiled by a \u201ctrigger warning\u201d in that the lecturer told everybody to remember that the book was about the systematic rape of a young girl, they found themselves unable to read the book. This seems to serve as the backbone of their entire argument, which is that trigger warnings ruing art by reducing them to a list of details, rather than allowing the reader/audience/whatever to find their own way through the text and make up their own mind.\nWhich is fine, if you don\u2019t have PSTD and have no need of trigger warnings for your basic mental health. If you do, however? Slightly different story.\nI really can\u2019t feel too guilty for not siding with people who seem to think that their appreciation of art being disrupted by somebody telling them \u2013 and anybody else who might need to be warned \u2013 that said art contains themes that may literally cause somebody to have a panic attack is more important than the possibility that somebody will, y\u2019know, have a panic attack. I believe the phrase \u201ccheck your privilege\u201d works quite well here. In fact I kinda have to think that that if your ability to enjoy a work of art relies on it not being \u201cspoiled\u201d for you, if you are unable to work around the label that somebody else puts on it for whatever reason they applied that label, then your appreciation of art is pretty shallow to begin with. Novelty is a wonderful thing \u2013 I certainly remembering being really anxious about having The Deathly Hallows spoiled for me, back in the day \u2013 but thinking of other people\u2019s personal safety is just a teensy bit higher up in terms of moral priorities.\nOr it should be anyway. I unfollowed somebody today because that didn\u2019t seem to be their MO and, as somebody with a history of depression and social anxiety who does not deal well with confrontation, I figured I could stand to take myself out of that situation rather than sticking around to duke it out with someone who probably won\u2019t read my comment anyway.\nWe already have \u201ctrigger warnings\u201d on art. If you\u2019ve ever bought/hired a movie, TV show, music album or videogame, you\u2019ve seen them yourself. It\u2019s just that they\u2019re called \u201cratings\u201d rather than \u201ctrigger warnings\u201d, and nobody who complains about those is taken particularly seriously, because the rationale is clearly there. And it\u2019s the same thing here. The only difference is that we\u2019re talking about \u201ctrigger warnings\u201d rather than \u201cratings\u201d. When we see the red R (or black R in a red circle) on a DVD, even if it doesn\u2019t specify what the R is there for, there\u2019s a list that pops up anyway \u2013 violence, obscenities, rape. It\u2019s because it\u2019s so ubiquitous. If the same censorship rules already applied to paintings and books \u2013 and, yes, university papers \u2013 there would be no argument.\nIt seems that the people complaining about putting trigger warnings on everything don\u2019t even know what a trigger warning actually is. It\u2019s not there to take a black marker and blot out all the triggering content; it\u2019s there to warn you that the triggering content is there, so that you have a choice about whether you\u2019re exposed to it or not. Trigger warnings, when used as intended, only serve to empower people to act, not prevent them from doing anything. Trigger warnings are informative. If you can\u2019t stand to read Lolita not because it has the systematic rape of a young girl in it, but because the surprise was ruined for you, then you may want to consider what your actual problem is.\nBecause trigger warnings are there for the people who need them. I mean what\u2019s next? Are people going to complain about access ramps for those who use wheelchairs? Captions for those who are hearing-impaired? The existence of braille? Counseling and therapy? Fuck it, why even have doctors? Just don\u2019t get hurt in the first place!\nTrigger warnings are there for people who will get hurt. If your appreciation of art is the price that has to be paid to prevent that, get used to not appreciating a hell of a lot of art, I say \u2013 or, better yet, cultivate better criteria upon which you base your appreciation of art.\nBecause to be honest, needing to have everything non-spoiled for you in order for you to appreciate it sound a bit like \u2026 what\u2019s the phrase? Ah yes: hand-holding.\nCoddling.\nBeing over-sensitive.\nOnly instead of being \u201cover-sensitive\u201d about reliving your past trauma, you\u2019re over-sensitive about a plot point.\nAnd if that\u2019s what you\u2019re upset about, if you know what trigger warnings are, you need to grow the fuck up.\nAs for whether alternative texts should be provided in university papers for students who are triggered by these proposed trigger-warning-labeled texts? I think two things:\nArt is about self-expression, and academia is about engaging critically with the world (or the Arts/Humanities/Science are, anyway). In either case, it is disingenuous to leave out the ugly side of the truth. But that doesn\u2019t mean we shouldn\u2019t inform people of what, specifically, we are going to discuss before we discuss it, and there is no excuse for not giving warnings if we know there are people out there who will not just be upset by certain topics and/or stimuli, but may have a mental fucking breakdown because of them. At least not in a moral society that actually cares about the people who live in it.\nAs a culture, we are working with a long and distinguished history of not giving a fuck about people with trauma, whether physical or emotional, and that this may just have affected the way universities select their material for students, assuming that they can \u201chandle it\u201d because \u201cthere\u2019s nothing wrong with them\u201d. It is a fairly recent phenomenon that social media has become the political platform for a whole host of disenfranchised demographics of our society to not just make themselves heard, but make their voices widely heard. That doesn\u2019t mean they just suddenly popped up: it means they\u2019re suddenly able to participate in the public sphere. If you can\u2019t handle that, again, you\u2019re the one being over-sensitive. Or just human. I mean hearing people talk, sometimes angrily, about all the messed-up shit in their lives that you\u2019ve never considered before should make you upset, right? If you\u2019re not a sociopath? Or an asshole?\nSome people argue that trigger warnings are bad because \u201cthe world is unpredictable\u201d, and therefore it\u2019s unreasonable to \u201cshelter\u201d people. Well that\u2019s just blatantly wrong. The world is incredibly predictable, actually. Of course some things catch all of us off-guard, but our world is structured around minimising that as much as possible, for basic reasons of, y\u2019know, safety, and making sure that everything that needs to happen in order for society to continue functioning does in fact happen. Also: art, such as writing a book, is really predictable, because you choose what you do or don\u2019t include in it. The same with organising a university paper. We don\u2019t live in the wild west, and if we did, that wouldn\u2019t be a good thing. So the \u201cunpredictable\u201d excuse does not hold up.\nTL;DR: trigger warnings are there for people who need them. If you don\u2019t need them, actually try to understand why some people do, and appreciate what a privilege it is to not be one of them, instead of throwing a hissy-fit over somebody spoiling the Red Wedding for you.\nAnd now it\u2019s 2:06 a.m. and I need to write 5 assignments in the next two weeks while also spending the next three days moving house. I will say one thing about packing: it helps you sleep. Here\u2019s hoping that holds true tonight.\nPosted in Uncategorized.\tTagged art, mental health, rant, rape trigger warning, trigger warnings\nThe myth of us\nIt\u2019s done the essays are done they are finished I don\u2019t have to do them anymore and then I have FIVE MORE ASSIGNMENTS TO DO IN THE NEXT TWO AND A HALF WEEKS AAAAAARGH\nBut at least I\u2019m not behind on any of them.\nI would say I\u2019m angry except that I don\u2019t actually feel the emotional component necessary to warrant such a description. I\u2019m just kinda beige. This situation is very beige-inducing.\nAnyway: writing.\nWriting is not just about putting words on paper. That\u2019s the material side of things, the corporeal element of the wider entity that is writing. It\u2019s also about thinking and learning, and relying on the science of storytelling to enrichen our perspectives.\nMythology is something I\u2019ve been thinking of for a little while \u2013 when the word comes up, I instantly conjure up images of the Greek pantheon, and if I consciously push myself to diversify I\u2019ll think of the Norse and Egyptian gods, the Irish deities and heroes, the Maori and Chinese legends \u2013 or what little I know of them anyway \u2013 and that\u2019s about it. I don\u2019t think about, for instance, World War 2. I don\u2019t think about 9/11. Or the American Civil War, or the French Revolution, or Tianmen Square. I don\u2019t think about how I had a crush on Sailor Moon when I was 7 years old, or how the triad of Pokemon, Dragonball Z and Harry Potter more or less had the monopoly over my personal development between the ages of 12-16. I don\u2019t think about how Disney, Sesame Street, David Attenborough and not even having a television for a very long time had the monopoly prior to that. I think about the word in its \u201cofficial\u201d framing, because that\u2019s what the word is for.\nBut personal mythology is where mythology comes from. Intuition tells me that anyway; where else would these stories come from if not from the life experiences of those who told them, and those who passed them on? And what are these stories if not the first scientific theses? Creation myths outline a systematic process of how things came into being as they are now, and as time goes on these theses are replaced and modified by others \u2013 Christianity appropriated Irish mythology by turning the Tuatha De Danan into Leprechauns; Buddhism adopted Chinese mythology by turning Sun Wukong into a bodyguard for Xuangzang as he traveled to collect sacred Buddhist scriptures. Myths change to fit current knowledge; stories change according to who\u2019s reading them, and what they see them for. What propels them to the heights of culture-defining prominence is contingent on who agrees with it, or agrees that this is the version of events that ought to be perpetuated throughout society. And when they\u2019re criticised and/or disproven, there can be a lot of controversy.\nMythology is not just gods and heroes and monsters, is what I\u2019m saying. Mythology is making sense of the world, a process of heuristic reasoning that sounds utterly un-scientific, but serves the exact same function. Mythology is the 12 labours of Herakles, yes, but it\u2019s also how all women are attracted to assholes and bisexual, how all the good men are either taken or gay, the poor are lazy, the rich are amoral and both are greedy, how if you just work hard enough and believe passionately enough you can achieve whatever you want and there is absolutely nothing else to it.\nMythology is the explanation of how things came to be, and it is the thesis that tells us how things will continue to be, including ourselves.\nPersonal mythology is something that came up over lunch with my good buddy Viola the other day: we started talking about our teenage years and how hard it is to pull yourself out of that old mode of thinking and feeling when you go back and read, for instance, blog or journal entries that you made during that period. For me, my creation myth has been the story of my adolescence, specifically between the ages of 15 and 20. I chose that period to fixate on and make official, to disseminate throughout the civilisation of my brain, despite the fact that I\u2019d had 15 years of life prior to that to draw on. There was also an appropriation of my life between the ages of 11 and 13, and then a dark period when I was 14. The only thing I remember about being 14 years old is that it was the first time in my life, I think, that I lay in a bed and stared at a ceiling and felt like my life was over. Neither the bed nor the ceiling were actually mine; we were having a family holiday at one of my mum\u2019s co-worker\u2019s holiday house. It\u2019s a really nice house. I didn\u2019t take advantage of it because I was too busy angsting.\nPrior to that, I think everything was just too \u2026 different to be included in the official mythology. It\u2019s kind of like what I hear about the really big, glaring divide between the Old and New Testament sections of the Bible, only in my case the Old Testament is a history defined by adventure, joy and togetherness, and the New Testament is a suppurating abscess of hysterical introspection and second-guessing every single thing I thought or felt, or thought I was going to think or feel. I think, looking back, that my current procrastination skills were most likely developed during the New Testament period.\nThe main reason that my adolescence became my creation mythology is because I continued being anxious and miserable, rather than reverting back to the more confident and unabashed person I was before I turned 11. But the division between childhood and adolescence, especially where childhood is a magic carpet ride and adolescence is a bag of rotting dicks, makes it so seductive to draw a line between those two states of yourself and say that one was better and then suddenly everything changed and it\u2019s like you became an entirely different person.\nIt\u2019s not that that\u2019s not true, but it oversimplifies things. I find it hard to reconcile just how taken in I\u2019ve been with exactly that romantic idea for the past \u2026 decade? About that long anyway; thinking that there was some ideal version of myself in the far past and entering into the whole Childhood Renaissance phase that so many jaded adults go through, when if I\u2019m being honest I actually haven\u2019t changed very much at my core. I was always vulnerable to anxiety as a child, and I was always acutely aware of how much more anxious I was than any of my friends: I wouldn\u2019t go to sleepovers at my best friend\u2019s house until I was about 8 years old; I was afraid of dancing with one of my girl friends at primary school at the Halloween ball when I was 5 or 6, to the point where I think I literally leapt into my father\u2019s arms and he had to assure her that I didn\u2019t hate her all of a sudden. And yet I was also completely down with running around naked except for full-body tiger face-paint at the same age, and writing the school play, which I am only now starting to remember being a thing that I did, which I guess translated into how my friends have told me, repeatedly, that I\u2019m a completely different person when I\u2019m on stage \u2013 and the fact that I\u2019ll do pretty much anything on stage. I cleaved to my dad and a very select group of other people growing up, letting everyone else pretty much just drift in and out of my life without much of a care, and now I\u2019m a hermit who inexplicably has something resembling a very frail social life.\nMy point is that mythology is misleading, and when it serves the same purpose as science in terms of how we justify things to ourselves, that\u2019s worrying. But it\u2019s also a testament to just how powerful storytelling is, and why it\u2019s important: it creates the world we know, and it includes our blind spots, tells us that they don\u2019t exist by virtue of excluding them altogether, and when something that doesn\u2019t fit out mythology rattles us and reminds us that we don\u2019t actually have the definitive version of events \u2013 it\u2019s really quite unsettling. Not always in a bad way, but unsettling nonetheless.\nTelling stories is not even second nature to people: telling stories is the foundation for every goddamn thing we ever do. We have a mythology for who we are, for what the world is and how it works and the moral judgment on that state of affairs, whether it\u2019s fair or not, whether it should or even could be better.\nAnd it changes. The fear of \u201cgetting sucked back in\u201d with regards to old journal entries, of being transformed into the \u201cold me\u201d that, as mythology dictates, has been cut off somehow and relegated to the Old Testament, pretty much tells you all you need to know about how and why storytelling is so important in people\u2019s personal development \u2013 if I can get \u201csucked back in\u201d, then that tells me that I was never \u201cout\u201d to begin with. It\u2019s the same underlying issue of choosing \u2013 or, perhaps more accurately, identifying \u2013 a cut-off point for what \u201ccounts\u201d in the mythology of your life, of the world, that explains why things are they way they are now \u2013 if it doesn\u2019t fit the story you\u2019re trying to tell to the world, it\u2019s easy to leave it out, but you can never get rid of it. It threatens to overwhelm your edited version of events and reveal The Truth, which is that there is no cut-off point, there is no point at which Everything Changed. It\u2019s just a straight line, the trajectory of your existence \u2013 the story of your life. All of it.\nStorytelling is just taking that process and actively manipulating its mechanics. I think something like The Lord of the Rings is a perfect example of this because of the vast appendices that Tolkien wrote to back up the mythology that he wanted people to recognise as official: he even changed The Hobbit to fit his official version of the story of Middle-Earth. The Necromancer in Mirkwood wasn\u2019t Sauron originally; he was just a Necromancer. And yet there\u2019s not a lot of outcry about this executive meddling, because the creator is the one who\u2019s doing the meddling. And if the creator says X is true, even if Y was true before, then surely that\u2019s Word of God and, well, there\u2019s nothing we can do about it?\nThe thing is, then you have stuff like J.K. Rowling saying that she wishes she hadn\u2019t made Ron and Hermione end up together and the massive fan backlash, and the tension between canon and \u201cfanon\u201d mythologies, and the issue of the degree to which the creator actually owns their own story when it also \u201cbelongs\u201d to their fans. Never mind the vast millions of Potterheads around the world; even if the series only ever reached a few thousand people that tension would still be there, and perhaps just as intensely because of the smaller group of fans who might feel more intimate and directly involved with the story, because they\u2019re the proud few who have stuck by it. It\u2019s like building an identity for yourself when you\u2019re growing up and then running into a childhood friend who knows you from back in the day and kind of kicks down your tower of Babel, probably unwittingly while trying to re-establish some familiarity with you so that things won\u2019t be totally awkward. Ironic. Also like having parents or other older relatives treating you like you\u2019re still X years old when you\u2019re trying so hard to identify as Y years old instead.\nAnd the thing is that it\u2019s still a part of you, whether you want to acknowledge it or not. That\u2019s not to say that I agree with people imposing their reading of you onto you or that it\u2019s your obligation to indulge them; who you are is your business, end of story. But it is a messy business, or it can get that way, and it\u2019s important to be aware of that so that you can do it healthily. Viola and I both did the typical teenage thing of thinking we had to be a certain way, and deciding that we just were a certain way, that we were going to be a certain type of person because that\u2019s who we really were, or should have been, to the point where even nowadays I\u2019ll sometimes feel upset about not feeling upset about something, because I\u2019ll think that feeling upset is the correct response and I\u2019m about to be found out as a fraud. That\u2019s also mythology, the \u201cshould\u201d, the \u201cthere\u2019s something wrong with me because I\u2019m not like blah\u201d, the \u201cno the Necromancer was totally Sauron I fully planned that all out from the very beginning DON\u2019T QUESTION ME I AM IN CONTROL THIS IS MY STORY ANYWAY\u201d.\nAnd it is. It is your story and you can tell it however you want. But, as with The Curious Incident of the Dog and the Night Time, as with sectioning off entire years of your own life because they don\u2019t fit the current story of it you believe in, it pays to be aware. To be honest. I think it\u2019s healthy to shut things out sometimes, simply because a lot of the time there is no other tenable option. I still think it\u2019s healthier to get it out in the open though, if you get the chance.\nAnd with storytelling, in the conventional sense of the term, we get that chance. With fiction, we get to tell a whole, honest story without leaving anything out. To draft and revise and say \u201cthat doesn\u2019t count\u201d and not have to worry that it\u2019ll come back to bite us for denying its existence later on when that pesky childhood friend pops up, because this is something that everybody knows we made up. Because it doesn\u2019t count, not until we say it does. It\u2019s frustrating and it\u2019s blissful and, above all, it\u2019s always right.\n(That\u2019s part of why it\u2019s so frustrating. Which right choice is the right choice? Ugh.)\nThere are the stories we grow out of as well, the ones that we don\u2019t think we can write anymore because we\u2019re not the same person anymore. The same mythology doesn\u2019t apply to us anymore; we\u2019re not the story of Athena and the golden apples anymore, but the story of Hua Mulan pretending to be a man so she could join the army in her old father\u2019s stead. It\u2019s all a matter of what we\u2019re willing to cast off and what we\u2019re willing to keep carrying, and sometimes what we\u2019re willing to pick back up.\nI think there\u2019s this big myth around \u201creverting\u201d or \u201cregressing\u201d by poking around in our past, a myth that we can somehow undo all of this progress we\u2019ve made by daring to remember a fuller version of our story. Sometimes it\u2019s just not safe. Sometimes we do have to make up a new story, just for our own survival. There can\u2019t be any moral shame in that. But sometimes it is safe, or it becomes safe, and we can look back and realise that not only are we still moving forward, but there was nothing that could have stopped it in the first place, and our past never went anywhere, and it\u2019s ours. And nothing can, or could, ever take it away from us.\nAnd that it is now currently 2:14 a.m. and it\u2019s raining outside, and I should probably go to bed.\nPosted in Writing about Writing.\tTagged how we create ourselves, it's okay to remember the past, mythology, the stories we tell ourselves, writing\nGetting there, take [insert relevant number here]\nEither that or I really need to talk to a counselor, and I\u2019m gonna do that I think, just to be safe.\nI\u2019ve been really struggling with assignments for the past \u2026 well, three weeks now. Currently I have two essays to write, one of which I haven\u2019t even started, and both of them are at least 2 days late. I felt physically ill yesterday at the mere thought of writing them, and as time goes on I just feel more and more hopeless. I don\u2019t want to turn in a half-assed attempt, but I don\u2019t have the focus or desire to actually do any work. Which I assume is good old depression and/or social anxiety reminding me that they\u2019re not quite done with me yet, yippie.\nSo what better way to cope than sink into a hammock of self-pity and prolong the process even further?\nThe one good thing that\u2019s come out of it is that I\u2019ve been reading. I\u2019ve finished the Curse Workers trilogy by Holly Black and \u2026 I have thoughts about it. I like it, but it could \u2013 and should \u2013 have been better in following through with some of the ideas it presented. Although to be fair it would be very hard to have done that without taking it firmly out of the YA category \u2013 but that\u2019s a topic for another day.\nHowever, the book I\u2019m currently reading, Rebel Belle by Rachel Hawkins, is perhaps the most unnameable-longing-inducing book I\u2019ve read since The Magicians. It feels more \u2026 disposable, I want to say; a lot of YA stuff I\u2019ve been reading has felt that way \u2013 spend a few (hopefully) entertaining hours with it and then never think about it again \u2013 but Rebel Belle has a certain vibe to it that really makes my sehnsucht flare up. I\u2019m not entirely sure what it is, but it\u2019s possibly something to do with the whole \u201ca simpler time\u201d feel, being that it\u2019s set in the South and everything\u2019s a little more traditional and small-town community-feeling and no there has not been any horrible unintentional racism unlike a certain other YA paranormal novel set in the South that I still can\u2019t quite find the right words to talk about (a large part of the reason I haven\u2019t posted anything for coming up on three weeks is due to that particular problem) \u2013 not yet anyway. Just the good old-fashioned \u201ceverybody in the world is white\u201d kind of racism by exclusion. Which is still bad.\nI think there might have been an Asian girl at one point? No wait that was Curse Workers \u2026 (which also has a brown-skinned lead protagonist, which I didn\u2019t know until the third and final book \u2026 guess it just goes to show how much whiteness most definitely is assumed to be the default \u2026)\nAnd it\u2019s not just set in the South; it\u2019s freaking Alabama, and before the end of the first chapter we get to hear Alamaba\u2019s national anthem playing at the high school prom. So I\u2019m not saying this book doesn\u2019t have its share of issues. It most certainly does. But something about it really resonates with me. It\u2019s also quite funny and smart, and addresses a lot of questions I\u2019ve wrestled with in my WIP novel regarding how the discovery of supernatural powers is handled \u2013 I wouldn\u2019t say it\u2019s given me The Answer; it actually gives me an example of precisely what I don\u2019t want to do, but it does show me how it could work if I went down that route, because it works in this book.\nAnd the most impressive, surprising thing about Rebel Belle is that after eight months of reading plodding, meandering, directionless self-insert erotic fantasies in the YA world, I\u2019ve finally found a story that actually tells a goddamn story. It has a plot, and that plot progresses, and the characters develop along the way. It\u2019s fucking astounding. I\u2019d forgotten for a little while that stories were actually real things that could happen in the world, that narrative progression was supposed to be the norm. I\u2019m all for non-linear narratives and even stories that aren\u2019t really \u201cabout\u201d anything, or at least aren\u2019t plot-driven, but dear jasmine tea it\u2019s nice to have a return to the good old-fashioned Hero\u2019s Journey once in a while. This book has restored my faith in YA paranormal stuff, and the only downside to that is now I\u2019m waiting for it to go bad, but it keeps being good, and it\u2019s torture.\nSpeaking of torture: I really need to go and finish one of these goddamn essays so that I can stop freaking out about them. Because I have four more essays to freak out about after them. I was supposed to revise my novel tonight \u2013 and the past two nights \u2013 but didn\u2019t because I was freaking out about not writing my essays while stubbornly continuing to not write them and just \u2026\nI have a problem. That much is clear. I just don\u2019t know what it is.\nBut I think part of it is that I haven\u2019t finished these freaking essays yet, and I was doing so well with the whole \u201cjust hand in something\u201d approach for a while there.\nAnd I can get back on the horse. I can hand in something. And then forget about it, and move on to the next thing. This has been my most psychologically unpleasant semester ever, but I\u2019ve also had some of my best grades ever this semester, so \u2026 I dunno. There\u2019s something in that.\nJust hand in something. Hand in a list of bulletpoints. Hand in a sandwich. Get it over and done with.\nPosted in Filler.\tTagged good storytelling, mental health, rebel belle, university, writing",

        "raw_content": "Here\u2019s What Google Is Doing To Get Puerto Rico Connected With The Outside World Since Hurricane Maria\nGoogle\u2019s Project Loon Bringing Internet To Puerto Rico\nGoogle is using balloons to bring internet to Puerto Rico\nPosted by NowThis Future on Tuesday, October 10, 2017\nGoogle wants to use balloons to reconnect Puerto Rico with the outside world.\nGoogle is doing their part to help Puerto Rico reconnect with the outside world while recovery efforts continue on the Caribbean island. How? With balloons. Essentially, Google is using weather balloons that float above flight paths (and wildlife), bringing Internet to people in rural, isolated, and remote areas where Internet access doesn\u2019t exist. It\u2019s called Project Loon, and Google describes it as a \u201cnetwork of balloons traveling on the edge of space, designed to extend Internet connectivity to people in rural and remote areas worldwide.\u201d\nThe balloons rely on existing telecommunications infrastructure, like cell phone towers, in order to transmit the signal to the people. That\u2019s why AT&T an important part of this project, according to Engadget. The telecommunications company has reportedly restored cellular service to about 60 percent of the population in Puerto Rico. With those towers in place, balloons can receive the signal from the cell phone towers and spread that signal to a large area on earth.\n\u201cWorking with AT&T, Project Loon is now supporting basic communication and Internet activities like sending text messages and accessing information online for some people with LTE enabled phones,\u201d Alastair Westgarth, the head of Project Loon, wrote on Medium. \u201cThis is the first time we have used our new machine learning powered algorithms to keep balloons clustered over Puerto Rico, so we\u2019re still learning how best to do this.\u201d\nYou can learn more about Project Loon in the video below.\nProject Loon has been deployed under emergency circumstances once before. Earlier this year, Project Loon sent their connectivity balloons to Peru to help the country recover after deadly floods. According to a BBC report, Peruvians sent 160 GB worth of data in just three months using Project Loon, which translates to 30 million instant messages, or two million emails.\nREAD: Here\u2019s The Impressive Way Google Is Providing Internet To Peru\nTags: InternetBalloonsHurricane ReliefPuerto Rico",

        "raw_content": "Whether you\u2019re about to launch your first website for your business, or have been around the web for a while, you might be thinking about what kind of content management system to use. Before web content management software was available, businesses relied on static pages being uploaded directly to servers in order to publish their websites. For various reasons, some organisations continue to update websites this way, and have serious limitations on their ability to scale and improve their web presence.\nIf your website doesn\u2019t have a content management system, and you think maybe it\u2019s time to make the change, get to know the top reasons for using a CMS.\nMultiple editors \u2014 If you need to give website editing access to several people, there\u2019s no better solution than a content management system. It\u2019s the best way to provide limited, focused access to the areas of your site that need to be updated without opening up the entire site for unintended or unsanctioned changes.\nTemplates \u2014 Rather than creating new pages from scratch, a CMS allows you to rely on templates you can reuse to create as many pages as necessary with the correct layout and functionality on each one. This enables your site to maintain a consistent look as it grows.\nGovernance \u2014 A true content management system designed for multiple content contributors doesn\u2019t stop at content creation and publishing. It allows you to customise and implement an editorial process or workflow to ensure all content is reviewed and approved by the right people prior to going live.\nContent focus \u2014 By separating your website content from its design, your content management system allows your marketing team to focus on producing more content to drive website traffic, improve SEO, and convert customers. Removing design and technical skills from the process makes it more efficient.\nGlobal changes \u2014 Through the use of templates, reusable files and assets, and various features, a content management system makes it easy to make changes across your entire website without having to update each individual page. Whether it\u2019s a phone number, your logo, or a header image, you can update or change them globally when using a CMS.\nEase of use \u2014 Making the management and upkeep of your website a coding-free non-technical task helps you get updates live faster, and also opens your site to more content from a larger group of contributors.\nSecurity \u2014 A content management system doesn\u2019t just protect your website from overly enthusiastic content editors. Installed as an application behind your firewall, a decoupled CMS can also ensure that your site is more secure and can\u2019t be easily exploited by hackers.\nAnalytics \u2014 If you\u2019re still uploading static pages, you might not have a good way to collect data on content performance and effectiveness. Measuring the impact of your content is critical to making it a business driver, and a CMS should enable you to track performance, or easily integrate third party tools to help you do so.\nA content management system is not required for running a website, but it makes that job infinitely easier, and the time spent running the site more productive. If your website is critical to growing demand and sales for your business, implementing a CMS can help you effectively scale your website and digital marketing efforts.",

He added that, in addition to raising the dropout age cutoff statewide, school districts should expand vocational training programs.\nIn the most recent available data from the U.S. Education Department, taking into account student transfers, South Carolina schools had a graduation rate of about 78 percent in 2012-2013, falling below the national average of 81 percent.\nRaising the dropout age would require a change in state law, and Epstein has started speaking with lawmakers about introducing a bill in the Statehouse when the next session begins in January. On Tuesday afternoon, he met with state Rep. Wendell Gilliard, D-Charleston, Charleston County School District board member Eric Mack and U.S. Rep. Mark Sanford at Sanford\u2019s Mount Pleasant office to discuss the proposal.\nGilliard said he plans to sponsor a bill raising the dropout age to 18 during the next state legislative session in 2016. \u201cIf something is not working, you\u2019ve got to think outside of the box and try new things,\u201d Gilliard said.\nGilliard co-sponsored a similar bill in 2012, but it stalled out in the House Committee on Education and Public Works following opposition from then-S.C. Education Superintendent Mick Zais, who said that students should not be forced to attend failing schools and that lawmakers should focus on expanding school-choice initiatives.\nSanford said he would like to see a focus on fixing the problems that lead students to drop out in the first place.\n\u201cDropping out at 17 is a symptom,\u201d Sanford said. \u201cWhat do we do about addressing the causes of that symptom?\u201d\nReach Paul Bowers at (843) 937-5546 or twitter.com/paul_bowers.\nAffordable HousingGilliard comes to the aid of residents",

        "raw_content": "The University of Louisville men\u2019s basketball team is at the center of a firestorm over allegations that a former team staffer paid for escorts for recruits and players.\nThe allegations, made by Louisville resident Katina Powell, have become a main topic of conversation for the sports media, not to mention sports fans in Louisville \u2014 and students of the university.\nOn Wednesday, WFPL News spoke to U of L students about the scandal.\n\u201cI was a bit shocked. I didn\u2019t expect that a university like this, that has such a notorious basketball program, would be caught with that kind of scandal. Just with the past sex scandals with Pitino in the past, it didn\u2019t come as a huge shocker that something like this could happen again. But it was a little surprising that it was actually happening on campus with students.\u201d\n-Hannah Jenkins, junior\n\u201cIf Rick Pitino didn\u2019t know about it then we don\u2019t believe that it happened, and I stand by that. If it comes out that it was true \u2014 it comes out that only a couple of people ruined it for the whole team \u2014 I\u2019m not going to blame that on everybody else that\u2019s here now, because of how long ago it happened.\u201d\n-Nicolas Ferrera, freshman\n\u201cI feel like the athletic department should be held responsible because if she (Powell) did do it, somebody had to actually issue those funds for him (Andre McGee, the team staffer). So, somebody knew about it and somebody should have said, \u2018Hey, probably not a smart idea, McGee.'\u201d\n-Andrea Wilson, sophomore\n\u201cThere have been tons of scandals in sports, anyway. So, it wouldn\u2019t surprise me if it was true. But unless you can prove it, you can\u2019t say it\u2019s true.\u201d\n-Mikell Reyes, freshman\nThe allegations were made earlier this month in the book \u201cBreaking Cardinal Rules: Basketball and the Escort Queen\u201d by Katina Powell. She said Andre McGee, then U of L director of basketball operations, paid her to gathered women, including two of her daughters, to dance and strip naked and to have sex with recruits and players between 2010 to 2014. The encounters allegedly happened in the dorm for U of L basketball players.\nOn Tuesday, ESPN reported that five former players and recruits confirmed elements of Powell\u2019s story; one recruit told ESPN that he had sex with one of the women, and that McGee paid for it.\nThe ESPN report led to calls for Louisville Coach Rick Pitino to resign, though he has said he will stay with the program. Pitino has said he doesn\u2019t know if the allegations are true, but he has denied any involvement.",

The program is meant to help teachers become more confident in understanding STEM curricula, that's science, technology, engineering, and math.\n\"We like to talk about the teachers, and you can't inspire students without inspiring the teachers first,\" said Kerry Kennedy, Honeywell's Director of Global Corporate Citizenship.\nThe teachers come into the program as students, learning astronaut training, thermal design, coding, and robotics.\n\"STEM is not really a big thing in South Africa at the moment,\" said Frieda De Bruyn, a 12th-grade biology teacher from South Africa.\" And so it was really so great for me to learn about these different techniques and how they're using it in their classes here in America, and incorporate those techniques in my class in South Africa as well.\"\nDe Bruyn attended the space academy last year and is back this year as an ambassador. After her experience, she said she learned the importance of motivating her students to explore STEM. She then organized a trip for her students to go visit an engineering company in South Africa.\n\"You feel like it's a great responsibility on you because you are really teaching the future generation. And I think sometimes you just get dragged down in the process,\" said De Bruyn. \"And just to come here and to feel like a kid again, and be part of this experience, just so wonderful to inspire us to then go above and beyond.\"\nSince it started in 2004, 3,000 teachers from 63 countries have participated in the space academy. Teachers applied for the program through the Rocket Center, which then scores the teachers on a rubric. The top-performing teachers are chosen to attend the academy all expenses paid.\nINTUITIVE Planetarium will help explore the universe, and more\nModel Space Launch System paint project to bridge Huntsville\u2019s past and present\nU.S. Space and Rocket Center\u2019s Saturn V replica to be repainted next week\nDigital theater and planetarium coming to U.S. Space and Rocket Center\nU.S. Space and Rocket Center hosting job fair Thursday\nRestoration of Saturn V begins\nU.S. Space and Rocket Center not affected by partial government shutdown",

The right treatment for you will depend on:\nThe size, type, and location of your stone\nHow much you are vomiting\nIf your stone is big or causes severe symptoms, you might need to stay in the hospital. If your stone is small and causes only mild symptoms, you might be able to stay home and wait for it to pass in the urine. If you stay home, you will probably need to drink a lot of fluids. Plus, you might need to take pain medicines or medicines that make it easier to pass the stone.\nStones that do not pass on their own can be treated with:\nA machine that uses sound waves to break up stones into smaller pieces. This is called \u201cshock wave lithotripsy.\u201d This procedure does not involve surgery, but it can be painful.\nA special kind of surgery that makes very small holes in your skin. During this surgery, the doctor passes tiny tools through the holes and into the kidney. Then he or she removes the stone.

        "raw_content": "Community Service a Point of Pride for Student-Athletes\nStudent-athletes at the University of Arizona strive to make an impact off the field throughout Tucson and Pima County. The second annual CATSYS Awards recognized the accomplishments of student-athletes from the past academic year, including awards for community service hours contributed by individuals and teams from April 1, 2017 to March 31, 2018. Over that period, our student-athletes were involved in a number of community service projects, totaling over 3,460 hours of service!\nIndividual awards recognized the male and female student-athletes who contributed the most community service hours for the school year. The men's award went to Matt Salerno, a junior from Men's Swimming and Diving. Matt visited students at Gallego Primary Magnet School, created Journey Journals for children at local hospitals, and was a member of the Peer Athletic Leader (PAL) group.\nGabi Stoian received recognition as the female student-athlete with the highest community service hours. As a senior on the Soccer team, Gabi lead her team to a third NCAA tournament appearance in the last four years. Off the field, she volunteered at Esperero Canyon Middle School, Alice Vail Middle School, Banner University Medical Center, and the Parkinson Wellness Recovery Center, just to name a few.\nThe coveted Athletics Director Cup for Community Service goes to the team with the highest average amount of hours per team member. This year, Women's Basketball earned this award by averaging 43 hours of community service per member, retaining their title from last year. Some of their volunteer hours were at the Boys and Girls Club, Ronald McDonald House, Habitat for Humanity, Tucson Clean and Beautiful, American Heart Association and American Cancer Society, among other places.\nWe are extremely proud of the exceptional things our student-athletes are accomplishing to represent the University of Arizona.\nStudent-Athlete Spotlight: Robby Medel, Baseball\nSenior right-handed pitcher Robby Medel arrived at Arizona prior to the 2015 season from TCU, and has been a staple for the baseball program ever since. The only player to have played for former coach Andy Lopez and current head coach Jay Johnson, Medel instantly embraced what it meant to be a Wildcat and has been an emotional leader for the baseball team during his time here. Few Wildcats appreciate the opportunity to wear the Cardinal and Navy more than Medel. He's appeared in 63 games over his four-year career and logged 132 1/3 innings.\nYou had the chance to speak at the CATSYs this year. How special was that and what did you want to convey to your fellow student-athletes?\nIt was great to have the opportunity to speak from my heart. I took that opportunity as a chance to spread my gratitude for Arizona Athletics to a room full of younger student-athletes. My hope was that it would hit home with them, and they would appreciate Arizona Athletics the way I have the last four years. It was a special opportunity, and something I won't forget.\nWhat have been some of your favorite memories from your four years in Tucson?\nGoing to the College World Series in 2016 tops the list. Playing at the highest level of our sport and having the ability to show college baseball the true personality of Arizona Athletics was something that was very special. I think we really did that when we were on that stage. Also, seeing Hi Corbett packed every time ASU comes into town. Some of my favorite moments are also meeting our fans and season ticket holders that come out to Hi Corbett day-in and day-out and put smiles on their faces.\nWhat makes Arizona Athletics so special?\nWhat makes Arizona Athletics so special is the city of Tucson. We have a full community that supports what we do. We're not trapped in a big city, and the city of Tucson and the support of our amazing alumni, along with great support staff and coaches are what makes Arizona Athletics what it is. When you're at Hi Corbett or McKale Center or Arizona Stadium, seeing a sea of red really gives you something exterior to play for.\nHow important is the support of the Wildcat Club?\nObviously it's massive to keep Arizona Athletics a top-tier athletic program in Division I sports. The support we get from the Wildcat Club keeps Arizona Baseball in an attractive spot for top recruits because of the facilities, such as our brand new clubhouse and the Terry Francona Hitting Center. Seeing former players like Steve Kerr and Terry Francona donate to our programs shows the pride that Wildcat Club members have in the current and future student-athletes.\nYou were a regular attendee at Arizona Football and Basketball games through your four years. How much did you enjoy supporting your fellow Wildcats, and why was that important to you?\nFirst off, I'm a huge sports fan. Coming to Arizona, I quickly bought-in to everything that is the Block A. Going to games at McKale and Arizona Stadium were my first athletic experiences here, and the support Tucson, the alumni and the students give is awesome. I couldn't have been more excited to see those same fans fill up Hi Corbett Field.\nBenefits Update: Men's Basketball Pac-12 Seating by Points\nIn 1990, the Wildcat Club Priority Point System was created to supplement the priority seating program and to reward loyal Wildcat fans for years of season ticket purchases and contributions to Arizona Athletics. The priority point system is used to determine all post-season ticket assignments, including quantity and location. See the graphic below, which illustrates the priority point cut-offs for seating assignments to the 2017-18 Pac-12 Men's Basketball Tournament. Please keep in mind that points change each year; this map could look different next season. However, we hope it will give you a good idea of how seating was allocated.\nWant to know more about priority points?\nCoaches Corner: John Court, Gymnastics\nHead gymnastics coach John Court is in his 20th season with the program. This past year, Court was appointed interim head coach of the GymCats and, after a successful season, he was named head coach of the program going forward. Court has helped lead Arizona to 19 NCAA Regional competitions, and more recently, helped administer the 2018 Pac-12 Championships in McKale Center. However, Court also stresses the importance of academic achievements. This past season, Arizona recognized nine female athletes as Scholastic All-Americans, and two student athletes were First Team All-Conference.\nWhat are the goals of the team as the 2018-2019 season begins?\nOnce the 2018 season was completed, I made a short list of things to get done. Work on improving the culture of our program, complete coaching staff, recruit athletes that have the qualities we stress for excellence at Arizona and transition the athletes who will be entering Arizona in July 2018. In the season, we will be a younger, less experienced team which means we have to work extremely hard in all phases of the day, practice, academics, nutrition, performance, and academics. We need to build stronger bridges and connect with the community and use every resource that is provided to us to the fullest, so our team can mature and be successful.\nWhat can fans look forward to in the upcoming season?\nA team that has great energy and is cohesive, nationally competitive athletics, a fantastic home meet schedule and fun for all people and family that attend our meets in McKale Center.\nThis is a great time at Arizona and the new leadership from Dr. Robbins (who watched PAC- Championships from the floor when we hosted) and Vice President and Director of Athletics, Dave Heeke, has been very impressive, the changes are for the better, and our students and coaches want to thrive here. To me, Arizona has always been about the people because we can do anything when we are together. In Tucson, the support within the community makes us all want to do well, and the fans have been a huge factor with national exposure for a lot of our programs.\nEvery member counts. We would not be where we are without the continued support of the Wildcat Club. From facilities, locker rooms, budgetary support, and other upgrades have helped set us apart from the competition. We want to be better as we go forward and reach new heights. Why not US, why not YOU, every member will always count, and we look forward to your continued support in the future.\nStudent-Athlete Convocation Recognizes 113 Student-Athletes\nEarlier this month, 113 student-athletes received degrees from the University of Arizona. Arizona Athletics hosted a convocation ceremony to honor them with their teammates, coaches, family and friends.\nWant to see a photo gallery of the event?\nArizona Road Tour\nWhen: Fri., June 8\nGCL: Open to Public",

        "raw_content": "This chest was designed to have a dual purpose: firstly (and most obviously) as a storage unit and secondly as a coffee table in a small living room. The shape is very basic but is the most functional for storing toys and games in.\nIn order to improve the aesthetic appeal of the chest dovetail joints would be used to join the sides. Details of how to create easy dovetail joints have been included in the Joints section. However, it is not necessary to use dovetail joints: any form of jointing, such as dowel joints or butt joints could be used.\nConstruction: The base unit\nThe sides of the base piece were made out of pine with the front and back being of dimensions 30 x 9 x 3/4 inches and the sides 16 x 9 x 3/4.\nHaving cut these pieces to size, the first job is to create the dovetail joints. These are done using a router and a dovetail template (see joints section for more details) with the dovetail showing on the side pieces, not on the front and back.\nOnce the dovetails have been cut, the next job is to create a means of attaching the base wood into the front and sides. The base was made out of a piece of 1/2 inch thick plywood. To attach the base plywood to the sides and front, a slotted tenon joint was cut 1/2 inch from the bottom of the sides, back and front. The size of this slot is 1/2 inch wide (the same as the thickness of the plywood) and 3/8 inch deep.\nThe size of the base plywood is 29 1/2 inches long by approximately 16 inches wide. It is important that you take your own precise measurement of this piece once you have cut the dovetails as the exact dimensions will depend on the depth of the joint and so on. To measure this size, dry fit the four sides together and measure the dimensions of the inside of the box. Then add on a measurement of 3/8 inch at each end for the depth of the slotted tenon joint.\nWhen you have cut the base to size, glue the four sides and the base together and clamp for several hours, ensuring that the sides are at 90-degree angles to the front and back pieces.\nThe lid is built in a very similar way. Cut out the front and back to the dimensions 30 x 5 x 3/4 inch, and the sides 16 x 5 x 3/4 inch and route out the dovetails. Take a moment to ensure that you are cutting the dovetails out of the sides (as you did on the base unit) rather than the front and back.\nUnlike the base unit, you do not need to route out a slot for the lid. Instead, the lid is made from pine, of rough dimensions 30 x 16 x 3/4 inches. Again, take your own measurement by dry fitting the four sides. Obviously, to make a piece that is 16 inches wide, you will need to join two pieces of pine together by doweling them.\nGlue the four sides together and then glue the top on. There is no need for screws or nails simply use strong wood glue and leave the whole unit clamped overnight.\nFinishing the project\nSand the entire chest, taking extra care to make sure that all of the corners are neatly rounded off \u2013 the last thing you want is sharp corners that you may bang your leg into \u2013 and then wax it.\nAdd two hinges to the back of the unit and a clasp to the front. In this project, it is worth buying ornamental hinges and a clasp as it adds to the design \u2013 hiding the hinges will make the chest look rather dull.\nFinally, add a chain or similar mechanism to the inside of the chest to stop the lid from swinging open too far, and consequently damaging the hinges.\nIf you will be using this for a toy box, please use non-latching hinges to avoid any accidents. They make bounce back hinges that are available at most hardware stores which are best for toy boxes.\nPrevious Magazine Rack\nNext Bird Feeder",

They have decided that it is entirely right and proper for men to fight for their liberties and their rights, but that it is not right and proper for women to fight for theirs.\u201d\nI often wonder what compels my compulsion. The compulsion to watch shows and scenes placing my mind back at the scene of the crime. It\u2019s a compulsion to be certain and in some ways, a very sick and twisted one. Many times, I force myself to relive my own sexual assaults \u2013 yes that\u2019s plural as it has happened to me more than once during my lifetime \u2013 watching and discussing things I know will take me back to those moments.\nSome of these discussions are frustrating. Others are debilitating. While still more are enlightening, not only for me many times but for those with which I have those discussions. Apparently, I\u2019ve had those discussions a lot lately and I have come to some interesting conclusions in regard to assault as well as the #metoo movement as a whole.\nAll too often, especially in discussions with the male persuasion, I find myself asking them these same questions because, somehow I am still morbidly curious and need to understand why someone would think assaulting someone else is okay. The most recent discussion happened the other night with my husband. He had some questions and statements for me as well.\nThe most important thing he asked me when I was done with my latest diatribe was this: Where is the line between harassment and assault? Because I had spent time explaining any unwanted contact constituted an attack which was the definition of assault.\nSo \u2013 here are the three things I concluded after many a long discussion.\n#1 \u2013 ANY UNWANTED CONTACT CONSTITUTES AN ATTACK.\nWhether it\u2019s accidentally brushing up against someone in a store to dropping a weight on someone\u2019s toe at the gym to forcing yourself on top of someone else, it is an attack. It is unwanted and unwarranted attention. This also includes verbal attacks as well because it is also unwanted and unwarranted attention.\nI find in an effort to \u201csmooth things over,\u201d the people in charge will find softer, more benign ways to to say things to keep from disrupting the status quo. The terms harassment or unwanted contact or bullying have been used to keep us from realizing one simple thing \u2013 all these terms are softer, kinder ways to say \u2018attack.\u2019\nLet\u2019s see if you feel a difference in the way this is relayed to you.\n\u201cMy kid is being bullied in school.\u201d It sounds like the normal socializing behaviors we expect from school.\n\u201cMy kid is being teased in school.\u201d Everyone, including ourselves, look at this statement and we feel bad but it\u2019s been so normalized. we feel like there is nothing we can do about it.\nNow \u2013 hear this:\n\u201cMy kid is being attacked at school by other students.\u201d Did the hair on the back of your neck just stand up? Do you feel that anger rise in you a little? You envision something like the scene out of Karate Kid where the kid is being attacked and beaten by a group of kids.\n\u201cMy kid is being verbally attacked during school.\u201d Oh my! Why isn\u2019t the teacher doing something to stop that? There\u2019s a no tolerance policy. I can\u2019t believe any parent would allow their kid to attack another kid.\nWORDS HAVE POWER!\nWhen you encounter this behavior, call it what it is \u2013 an attack. This one puts people on edge but it also brings attention to the severity of the issue. These issues are severe and rampant in all corners of our society as a whole. We need to be honest about what is happening.\nINTENT, WHILE NOT THE MOST IMPORTANT CONSIDERATION, DETERMINES THE LEVEL OF THE ATTACK\n\u201cNothing strengthens the judgment and quickens the conscience like individual responsibility.\u201d\nWhat the does this mean? Good question. It is best explained through a list of examples of situations.\nSituation #1: You\u2019re looking through the eggs in the grocery store and after finding your perfect dozen, you turn around and run right into someone\u2019s chest. Your eggs are now splattered all over their shirt and the floor and their shoes. You get the picture. Was there intent to do harm? No. But is this technically an attack? Yes. This is like a grade one. There\u2019s no harmful intent and no one really got hurt, except for maybe a top and some shoes and well, someone had to mop up the floor and you probably paid for the eggs. Easy \u2013 simple.\nSituation #2 \u2013 Say you\u2019re standing in line with your nephew. Now, he is a young cheeky sucker between four and six years old. He slaps the behind of the woman standing in front of you in line. Before she can turn around and sock you in the face, he blurts out an introduction, saving you from a bloody nose. Now, this is between a grade one and a grade two. The contact was intentional but the person who executed the contact was not malicious and they were uneducated about the idea of consent and proper conduct.\nSituation #3 \u2013 Your approached and someone you don\u2019t know pulls you in and gives you a hug. The current Richard Paul Evans controversy comes to mind. A hug in this context of no consent is an attack Is is wrong? Yes. So what stage is this \u2013 You would think on a scale of one to five, it would be a three or higher \u2013 but it\u2019s not. The intent was to give someone a hug out of kindness, not to make them feel less then or exert power over them. So, this is clearly a grade two. Because the person forcing the contact is uneducated and the person being attacked is not comfortable with the contact.\nIn the real life example occurring now, the attacker has learned and educated themselves and modified their behavior accordingly. This shows the intent was not to make anyone feel uncomfortable. They just hadn\u2019t caught up with the idea of consent which is unfortunate but we know many of those people in our lives.\nSituation #4 \u2013 After expressing something sexual that makes you uncomfortable, you ask your co-worker to stop saying those things around you. After lunch, some co-workers are hanging around your desk and talking about the topic you asked them not to. This is a grade three attack. It\u2019s intentional. You have made your feelings clear.\nThis situation could also have some physical contact involved but it doesn\u2019t have to in order for it to be a grade three attack. It could also be just physical contact that makes you uncomfortable. Does this make sense? The intention has changed and thus the level of attack.\nGrade four entails anything considered legal assault or harassment. The intention is to enact control or to take away someone\u2019s power and control. This is the simplest to understand because it is the grade most commonly recognized by the general public.\nDepending on the grade and the actions taken afterward by the perpetrator, the level of valid punishment should be evident. Now, this should not be confused with vengeance and here\u2019s the most important part of this entire argument.\n#2 \u2013 WE CANNOT ASK FOR VENGEANCE. SHAMING IS NEVER OKAY.\nIf we want the shaming to stop, we must stop calling for shaming to happen. If we sink to the level of the people we are fighting, if we become worse than our adversaries, our change is no longer for the good of everyone. It shifts to a corrupted enterprise built on vengeance. When we focus on vengeance, then we become no better than those violating our rights.\nYes, I have been slut shamed. I was asked if I was \u201casking for it.\u201d In a \u201cboy\u2019s club\u201d where it was common for people to be intertwined in relationships, it seemed the most plausible answer that I \u201casked for it.\u201d This was twenty years ago and I was naive. The institutionalized response was no surprise as this was the norm.\nFrom a community having been shamed for centuries for everything, from being a cute girl to a perfect mother and wife, being shamed sucks and the tactic should only be used in regards to a grade three or four if the person is not being held responsible or is not taking responsibility for their actions.\nWe cannot afford to become the shamers when they didn\u2019t see they were doing anything wrong. A mistake made in innocence must be seen as such because change can be slow and progress takes a long time. Change cannot and will not be instant, especially societal change. To expect it to be is to set a movement up for failure. We should not call for blood when we\u2019ve shed enough already.\nIf a perpetrator of actions up to a grade two shows genuine concern and change, a public shaming is unnecessary. They have been through enough. They acknowledge they were wrong. They acknowledge what they did was bad. They start changing how they behave to include consent, especially because they understand it better now. This should be the goal as many perpetrators don\u2019t realize what they are doing.\nA DIFFICULT POSITION TO BE IN\nThis comes with a very difficult caveat. It is a fine line to walk. Often, we want people publicly reprimanded when it isn\u2019t necessary. We haven\u2019t examined their new behavior and we scream justice includes public shaming. NO \u2013 we must strive to educate and incite change through that education for everyone.\nThe thing we must be the most careful is not to lose ourselves and become as low or worse than the perpetrators. We can\u2019t claim they\u2019re awful if we are no better. Asking for public shaming without knowing all the facts of the situation is out of line. Forcing someone to be damaged by something like this when they have taken full responsibility for their actions is out of line. Being cavalier about a movement that is striving to find ways to protect an underrepresented group is just as egregious.\nNow, this doesn\u2019t mean we cannot present facts in evidence to the media if it becomes necessary to hold people responsible for their actions. Some people have so much money or are so powerful, this is the only option available to those of us who have become their prey. Scandal is a definitive way to ensure people with power cannot escape justice.\nInstead of shaming, we must strive to educate the public with the facts. This is not in an attempt to shame them, but to make sure others know what they are doing and how they are wrong. Strive to educate if they won\u2019t listen in private. Only through acceptance and education can we even begin to foster change.\n#3 \u2013 WAR IS HELL\nThe #metoo movement is a form of war. When we sent Japanese to internment camps during World War II, we sank to the levels of Hitler and the Nazis. When we eradicated entire populations in China to prove a point to Russia, we sank to the level of the Japanese, Russians and Germans with the release of one bomb. We let our hatred and fear get the best of us.\nI know we\u2019re scared and we\u2019ve been scared for a long time. We want our power back, the power not to feel afraid and intimidated at every turn in our lives. The power to not have to educate our daughters about how to protect themselves. The power to have a community who recognizes everyone in it is a human that deserves respect, dignity and decency.\nThat\u2019s why this movement exists and why it is so positive, but we must not give into our fear and become fear mongers ourselves. That ranks us in with white supremacists and the like if we\u2019re not careful. Women supremacists \u2013 proclaiming our right to walk above all. This is the line we must not cross in order to instigate systemic, consistent change.\n\u201cFew will have the greatness to bend history itself; but each of us can work to change a small portion of events, and in the total; of all those acts will be written the history of this generation.\u201d\nPrevious Excerpt from D-Evolution\nNext Interviews are fun!!",

        "raw_content": "R.O. CCF, Theofilos Mavropoulos. \"Do not say that we are few; Just say that we are determined .\" 2012. Source: The Anarchist Library.\nDo not say that we are few; Just say that we are determined\nby R.O. CCF, Theofilos Mavropoulos\nThe question is not whether we are more or less poor, but whether we live in a way that does not contain us. We do not want to repeat things that have already been said.\nWe have banished from our minds the idea of central governance, and we do not believe in legends about the phantom of the proletariat. We are thus neither faced with an isolated State, which allegedly gives commands from the palaces of its Power, nor with a society that is waiting to be awakened in order to revolt. Today\u2019s society is a pervasive social factory that produces attitudes, values, ethics and habits.\nToday\u2019s society works like a social death machine, which devours time, space, emotions and consciousnesses. The centre of the State and the heart of the system are dispersed in millions of small and large representations of Power in our everyday lives. They lie at the language we speak, the images of advertisements, the architecture of the cities, the virtual reality of technology, the people-centered civilization, the firearms of cops, the national symbols of fascists, the locks of private property, the standards we fall in love with, the walls of prisons.\nThere are no innocents. We all make part of the social machine of Power. The question is whether we are oil or sand in its gears. Therefore, we reject the notion of the apparent innocence of society. Silence is never innocent. We hate both the hand that holds the whip and the back which passively endures it.\nNowadays the social machine is being transformed. The economic crisis that\u2019s spreading over the privileged Western societies creates the need for a transformation of the management of Power. A new military-police state, along with the dictatorship of technology, is now shielding every authority. New police security forces, concentration camps for immigrants, reappearance of the army on the streets, further development of surveillance systems, DNA banks and genetic screening experiments lay more and more mines over domains of our lives.\nAt the same time the social mass has passed from the era of consumerism frenzy to the period where financial promises are broken and agony is being prolonged.\nNowadays this agony takes to the streets and protests, appears indignant, shouts or complains. It is a heterogeneous crowd that reciprocates within its contradictions. A mosaic of people comprised of yellers, democrats, reformists, leftists, non-aligned persons, indignant citizens, university/school students, trade unionists, hooligans, nationalists, anarchists, and so forth.\nTherefore, those who see in these new moves against the economic crisis some perspective of liberation and anarchist awareness will soon be disappointed.\nA large part of this \u2018movement\u2019 is merely nostalgic for the past era of consumerist abundance and does not want a rebellion against any authority. Quite a few indignant persons slept with their purses filled, and have woken up with bankrupt illusions. That\u2019s why they hit the streets claiming their consumerist fantasies back into their lives. Almost no one truly criticizes the former way of life, desiring its diversion towards liberation.\nOn the contrary, they wish to maintain the previous order of things. Particularly in Greece, some people in fear of economic distress resort to the cowardice of racism and fascist propaganda.\nOn the other hand, professionals of the \u2018revolutionary\u2019 rhetoric, reformists of the Left and their sold-out unionists, are exhausting the widespread social anger into processions-litanies, thus parading the corpse of compromise.\nAs for a large part of societist anarchists in Greece, they fantasize about picturesque scenarios that speak of a social awakening and a magical time when the objective conditions will have come. But anyone who sleeps with hopes wakes up with nightmares.\nTo us, who identify ourselves as anarchists of praxis, insurrectionists, nihilists and anti-societists, the insurgency is outside and far from economic demands and objective conditions. We abolish the economy as a social relation between us and define our subjective conditions as a starting point of insurgency. To tell the truth, we are not interested in economic terms and theories, nor share the agony of figures, statistics and financial deficit with the society. We just know how much we are suffocating in the modern world of captivity, either this world is deemed sick from the economic crisis or not.\nNevertheless, we rejoice at the economic crisis. This crisis is to our benefit, as it causes gaps over the territory of sovereignty and helps us promote our own offensive. We abandon the language of domination, as well as the rhetoric of a revolutionary antidote to the economic crisis. We attack because we want to deepen the economic crisis and cause chaos in Western metropolises.\nAs already mentioned, a complex and contradictory community of people (from antifascist ultras to conservative patriots) resides in the indignant movements and intermediate struggles. This is our chance to associate anarchy with the most untamed elements that are looking forward to expanding the rebellion amid the slowness of intermediate struggles. To make this happen, we need to step forward by maintaining our autonomous political characteristics loud and clear, and not camouflaging them to gain social sympathies. We wish to cause the polarization, and not get lost in the mediocrity of social protest.\nSo, we suggest that we intervene in the intermediate social struggles. Flexible small groups of anarchists of praxis may penetrate into these large processions-funerals, and generate conflict against selected targets of Power, either by striking with the method of hit \u2019n\u2019 run, or (if the circumstances are favorable) by erecting barricades and attacking the police forces. These moments of clash can be a first meeting point among the most \u2018extreme\u2019 and untamed elements that take part in demonstrations. The first experience of attack, direct action and factual solidarity is acquired out there. Unfortunately, this experience has often been abandoned to the randomness of the next encounter at the next protest march so far. But we grew tired of running behind the facts. We do not want to wait for the next rally in order to attack. For this reason, we also propose the creation and support of informal groups of anarchist direct action, so that the experience of clash with the existent will not be confined to moments of a demonstration or an intermediate struggle. It will instead be organized, coordinated and diffused in all aspects of our lives, making riots permanent in our daily circumstances. We wish to turn our daily lives into a constant battle against Power and its civilization.\nTo make this happen, we need to rule out randomness and automations. We can neither wait for any anniversary or commemorative dates, nor for the tardiness of the mass in large gatherings and demonstrations.\nInformal anarchist action groups are dispersed daily into the fabric of society, seeking to cause sabotages which will short out the social machine. Small anarchist guerrilla groups can easily move across the radiant sweatshop of the metropolis and strike blows at the colonies of the empire. In our chosen new anarchist urban guerrilla warfare, we are currently expanding the options of targets which we attack, just like every authority expands its forms. Alongside the common targets such as police stations, political party offices, etc. we also detect new enemies like advertising agencies, statistical services companies, pharmaceutical industry corporations, information technology companies, symbols of the spectacle, genetic experiments scientists, DNA laboratories, schools of business executives, faculties of journalism and marketing, and so on.\nFurthermore, an informal anarchist urban guerrilla group is able to cause short circuits in the normal trafficking of various different products within the metropolis, e.g. by barricading streets which carry heavy rush hour traffic, and setting tires ablaze, to attacking and destroying means of mass transportation (public buses, trams, trains). So, while we seemingly do not attack the \u2018plutocracy\u2019 (because the streets and public transport vehicles are typically used by everyone), we nevertheless inflict sabotage on Power.\nWe\u2019re deadening zones of the metropolis to liberate time; the time to think, to feel, to wonder about things.\nAfter all, anarchist insurgency is when you have questions, while authority is when you assume you have all the answers.\nWe\u2019d like to emphasize something though. When we talk and think as part of the raging insurgency, we know that there are a thousand ways to act as anarchists. As we have often written, we want others to be able to appropriate the same means we use.\nBy this phrase, however, we want to avoid any confusion which might surround our thinking. When some comrades arbitrarily base the term of \u2018appropriable means\u2019 on some yardstick that measures our violence, they then tend to reduce the means of conflict that measures our violence, limit the very means of conflict, and isolate acts such as the placing of a powerful explosive device, or the political execution of an officer of Power. According to this kind of reasoning, such actions and the use of respective means (explosives, time bombs, and guns) are usually considered to require a specialization. On the contrary, we believe that especially today individuals who want to take their life in their hands can discover ways to learn and to use all sorts of tools of anarchist direct action, from a stone to a Kalashnikov. We do not wish to put limits in our offensive. And this thought can become yet another practice, so we suggest that informal direct action groups contribute to the transmissibility-contagiousness of their experiences by safely publicizing and disseminating online manuals for the manufacturing of incendiary/explosive devices, alarm clock detonators, function of weapons, etc.\nMoreover, this proposal is written in detail in another text we published in the latest edition of our comrades from \u2018325\u2019 with the aim of starting a dialogue between the anarchists of praxis and the Informal Anarchist Federation cells.\nWe believe that what is necessary to become appropriable is the will towards anarchist insurgency itself, and the means are nothing else than objects which our hands and our desires are capable of discovering. Therefore, we avoid the distinctions of low- or high-intensity violence, and we destroy the reproduction of the expertise myth. A typical example of polymorphous anarchist action is the experiment of FAI/IRF, whose members claim responsibility both for solidarity banners and blocking entrances of commercial stores with glue in Peru and Bolivia respectively, and the shooting of a chief executive of a nuclear power company in Italy as well as the execution of three municipal cops in Mexico. After all, as Conspiracy of Cells of Fire we started somewhat like this, too, and we were never tied up to an arrogance of the means and their unofficial hierarchy.\nContinuing our reasoning on how the existent can really be attacked, we believe that no attack speaks for itself. Today nothing is obvious or self-evident. Even the attacks on bank branches, immigration concentration camps, the street battles with cops during a demonstration may be forged and appear as something other than what they were meant to be. Not only will the representatives of Power distort these beautiful moments of war, through the spectacle and the journalists, but there are also living myths about self-evident notions from our side; the myth of the enraged society that supposedly sympathizes with us and supports our practices, the myth of mass violence, the myth of a \u2018just cause\u2019 in general.\nBut we do not need the \u2018sympathy\u2019 of a crowd of applauders, nor do we wait for the masses before taking action, nor do we have requests in order to defend a just or unjust cause, to be right or wrong. We are nothing less than what we are, and we\u2019re searching for accomplices and comrades. We are anarchist deniers of the order, and we wish to self-determine our acts, because these are indeed our invitations to anyone who wants to take back his/her life. Because our acts makes us what we are. We therefore think that the informal anarchist direct action groups must not let the silence cripple their actions, abandoning them to the dictatorship of the self-evident each time, but we rather consider public communiqu\u00e9s of a responsibility claim to be significant.\nBesides, if we abandon an action to mercy of the anonymity, it feels like we\u2019re depriving the action of its own psyche and of the meaning it carries. The communication that has both been eroded and lost its substance under the influence of modern civilization is given meaning once again and liberated anew through the discourse of comrades who carry out each attack. Thus, the act itself ceases to be an end in itself, just a news article in a daily, or simply a blow against the enemy, and becomes something much more: part of a special history, part of a special legacy that\u2019s written in the here, in the now by people who share a joint desire, that of a continuing clash and destruction of the existent; a heritage durable over time and open to criticism and evolution. Apart from committing hostilities, we believe that in this way we can achieve an everlasting insurrectional perspective, which embraces an international galaxy of informal direct action groups and sets the stage for a dialogue which in turn is crucial to the development of relationships and comradeship.\nEach proclamation, each responsibility claim is an open invitation, a small contribution to a wider conversation, a way to pose questions rather than giving answers, a way to self-determine yourself against any official truth, a method of communicating with mates that you have not even met in person or never contacted before; it is the outsourcing of war against Power that we have within us.\nBesides, every communiqu\u00e9 is the result of the desire of a group of comrades who sat down to discuss, plan and organize their action, and attacked their target, and then talked to each other again, shared their experiences, made an account and often their self-criticism, and chose to publicize their lived experience and consciousness of their offensive. To us, every cell or informal group is a living experiment of human relationships in a liberation perspective. Especially the cells that have proved durability over time stand for laboratories of subversion, exploring the centre of human relationships. It is certain that the comrades\u2019 relations in informal groups are being tried, evolved, worn out, re-created, and each individual discovers more and more of himself/herself. A cell or an informal anarchist federation is not running behind the facts but instead makes things happen. Informal groups are shaped to overcome the randomness of historical conditions, and do not abandon their desire for attack to a circumstantial spontaneity. On the contrary, they declare their own war on the existent in the here and now without any delay.\nThese formations and nuclei are a way to bid farewell to the inertia of the masses. We baptize them with the names we give ourselves. The name of each group we participate in is our psyche, our soul. It\u2019s our way towards self-determination and rejection of all social identities. We are neither proletarian, nor oppressed, nor workers. We do not wish to get lost in the anonymity of mass unity that removes our uniqueness. We are the name we chose for ourselves. For this we say that the name of a cell does not stand as an advertising sign, but rather as a callout to everyone in order to organize their praxis and create their own group, so as to pass from the point where a return to normalcy is impossible. For the constant anarchist insurrection that never ends. Because there will always be a new sunrise more beautiful than any previous one.\nComradely regards,\nConspiracy of Cells of Fire of the first phase\nand anarchist comrade Theofilos Mavropoulos\nInformal Anarchist Federation / International Revolutionary Front (FAI/IRF)",

        "raw_content": "Obama, rapping Putin, says US could strike back on cyber\nWASHINGTON (AP) \u2014 President Barack Obama put Russia\u2019s Vladimir Putin on notice Friday that the U.S. could use offensive cyber muscle to retaliate for interference in the U.S. presidential election, his strongest suggestion to date that Putin had been well aware of campaign email hacking.\n\u201cWhatever they do to us, we can potentially do to them,\u201d Obama declared.\nCaught in the middle of a post-election controversy over Russian hacking, Obama strongly defended his administration\u2019s response, including his refusal before the voting to ascribe motive to the meddling or to discuss now what effect it might have had. U.S. intelligence assessments say it was aimed at least in part on helping Donald Trump defeat Hillary Clinton, and some Democrats say it may well have tipped the results in his favor.\nThough Obama avoided criticizing President-elect Trump by name, he called out Republicans who he said fail even now to acknowledge the seriousness of Russia\u2019s involvement in U.S. elections.\nObama expressed bewilderment about GOP lawmakers and voters who now say they approve of Putin, and he said unless that changes the U.S. will be vulnerable to foreign influence.\n\u201cRonald Reagan would roll over in his grave,\u201d Obama said as he closed out the year at a White House news conference. Afterward he left for the family\u2019s annual vacation in Hawaii.\nObama declined to state explicitly that Putin knew about the email hacking that roiled the presidential race, but he left no doubt who he felt was responsible. He said that \u201cnot much happens in Russia without Vladimir Putin\u201d and repeated a U.S. intelligence assessment \u201cthat this happened at the highest levels of the Russian government.\u201d\nObama said he confronted Putin in September, telling the former KGB chief to \u201ccut it out.\u201d That was one month before the U.S. publicly pointed the finger at Russia. Suggesting his directive to Putin had been effective, Obama said the U.S. \u201cdid not see further tampering\u201d after that date.\nThe president has promised a \u201cproportional\u201d yet unspecified response to the hacking of the Democratic Party and Clinton\u2019s campaign chairman. Emails stolen during the campaign were released in the final weeks by WikiLeaks. On Friday, CIA Director John Brennan said in a message to employees that the FBI agrees with the CIA\u2019s conclusion that Russia\u2019s goal was to help Trump win.\nTrump has dismissed the CIA\u2019s assessment and talk about Russian hacking as \u201cridiculous,\u201d while arguing both Democrats and the CIA are trying to undermine the legitimacy of his victory. He made no mention of the hacking \u2014 or of Obama \u2014 during the latest stop on his \u201cthank you\u201d tour in Orlando, Florida, Friday night.\nClinton has even more directly cited Russian interference. She said Thursday night, \u201cVladimir Putin himself directed the covert cyberattacks against our electoral system, against our democracy, apparently because he has a personal beef against me.\u201d\nThe Senate intelligence committee said Friday that it will conduct a bipartisan investigation and hold hearings about what led the intelligence agencies\u2019 finding. \u201cThe committee will follow the intelligence wherever it leads,\u201d said chairman Sen. Richard Burr, R-N.C.\nAt the same time, Rep. Devin Nunes, R-Calif., chairman of the House intelligence committee, complained that his committee\u2019s oversight into the hacking has been stymied because the intelligence agencies have not provided information to the committee.\nObama said he\u2019d leave it to political pundits to debate the question of whether the hacking swayed the election outcome. He did, however, chide the media for that he called an \u201cobsession\u201d with the emails that were made public during the election\u2019s final stretch.\nHe said his reticence to detail publicly the U.S. response to Russia reflected a need to retaliate \u201cin a thoughtful, methodical way.\u201d\n\u201cThe idea that somehow public shaming is gonna be effective, I think doesn\u2019t read the thought process in Russia very well,\u201d Obama said.\nAccusations of Russian election interference have heightened the already tense relationship between Washington and Moscow. Separately, Obama has blamed Russia for standing in the way of international efforts to stop the civil war in Syria, where government forces have beaten back rebels in Aleppo.\nObama said he feels \u201cresponsible\u201d for some of the suffering in Syria, but he defended his decision to avoid significant military action there. He said that while military options short of invasion were tempting, it was \u201cimpossible to do this on the cheap.\u201d\nStill, he pinned the bulk of the blame on Russia, as well as Iran, for propping up Syrian President Bashar Assad.\n\u201cThis blood and these atrocities are on their hands,\u201d he said.\nMeanwhile, the president rejected any notion that the dispute over hacking was disrupting efforts to smoothly transfer power to Trump. Despite fiercely criticizing each other during the election, Obama and Trump have spoken multiple times since the campaign ended.\n\u201cHe has listened,\u201d Obama said of Trump. \u201cI can\u2019t say he will end up implementing. But the conversations themselves have been cordial.\u201d\nThe president did weigh in on Trump\u2019s decision to speak with the leader of Taiwan, a recent phone call that broke decades of U.S. diplomatic protocol. Obama advised Trump to \u201cthink it through\u201d before making changes in the One-China policy, in which the U.S. recognizes Taiwan as part of China.\nIn a moment of self-reflection, Obama acknowledged he had not been able to transfer his own popularity and electoral success to other Democrats. His party is now reeling from the White House loss and failure to win back either the House or Senate.\n\u201cIt is not something that I\u2019ve been able to transfer to candidates in midterms or build a sustaining organization around,\u201d Obama said. \u201cThat\u2019s something I would have liked to have done more of, but it\u2019s kind of hard to do when you\u2019re dealing with a whole bunch of issues here in the White House.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Termites are a common problem throughout the United States. In fact, they are found in all states except for Alaska. Connecticut has a fairly high occurrence of termites due to its relatively mild winters and warm summers. The eastern subterranean species is the most common species to be found throughout the state. What are termites, how can you detect an infestation, and what problems do they create? The following information will help you understand more about these insects.\nFacts about Termites?\nTermites are a common type of insect that can infest homes, offices, and other buildings throughout the United States. Termites operate in large colonies similar to those in which ants reside. A single termite colony can contain as many as three million termites. This demonstrates how quickly a termite infestation can get out of hand. Since termites generally reside deep within the infrastructure of your home, you may not even be aware of their presence for a considerable period of time.\nSince termites tend to remain well-hidden, it can sometimes be difficult to detect the presence of an infestation. However, there are a few things you can keep an eye out for that may signify a problem with termites. These common termite signs are listed below.\nTermites build complex tubing to serve as a protection for them and to serve as a dark and humid area in which they can store food as needed. The presence of these tubes either inside or outside your home may indicate that you have an infestation of termites.\nYou will have to pay attention to the outer perimeter of your home to detect this common sign of termites. Since subterranean termites are the most common species in Connecticut, it makes sense to keep an eye out for the presence of these tunnels. Subterranean termites reside mostly in the soil and will build elaborate tunnels serve as shelter and a storage area for food.\nIf you have a larger infestation of swarming termites, you may hear unusual noises to alert you to their presence. The tapping sound made by many species of termites is caused by their jaws and heads coming into contact with wood as they chew their way through these structures.\nWhat Problems Can be Caused by Termites?\nTermites are among the most feared insects for many homeowners because of the extent of the harm they can cause to buildings, homes, and offices. Though they are fairly small in size, termites are responsible for millions of dollars worth of damage on a yearly basis. In addition to the cost of repairing this damage, accidents and injuries that occur as a result of it can impact many families.\nAt ABC Exterminating, we understand the significance of keeping a safe environment for your children, friends, and other loved ones.

        "raw_content": "**Opinion pieces reflect the views of the individual contributor and do not necessarily represent the views of ACC.\nIn an effort to address pollution in our world\u2019s oceans, Starbucks \u2014 one of America\u2019s largest coffee companies \u2014 recently announced their plans to phase out the use of plastic straws in its 28,000+ stores around the world. It\u2019s an ambitious undertaking, and one which \u2014 if successfully implemented \u2014 will set a standard of sustainable practices in corporate America.\nThere\u2019s been a growing debate about the use of single use plastic straws for quite some time now, but the conversation has been heightened as of the past few months in light of ongoing social media campaigns and public service efforts to raise awareness on the dangers of pollution, and in particular, single use plastic pollution, in our world\u2019s oceans and environmentally sensitive ecosystems.\nGiven this growing debate, Starbucks \u2014 a company known for its willingness to engage and participate in national debates, even when such debates are considered to be political or controversial in nature \u2014 has decided to take the lead in the service industry, and implement a company wide ban on plastic straws. This is a game-changing policy change within the company and one which will lay the foundation for transformational change within the service industry at large.\nCompanies will now be forced to adapt to the changes happening within the industry, and innovate as Starbucks will now set out to do, as they try to invent and make portable, heat-resistant cups and materials, to replace plastics and other materials deemed to be unsafe and unsustainable for the environment, and for the company\u2019s long-term climate action plans.\nSince the announcement, Americans have expressed their support, and at times, their opposition, with Starbuck\u2019s plans to ban plastics, one-use straws at their coffee stores, but an area of common agreement and understanding for most Americans comes from the recognization that more must be done to address the plastic pollution adversely impacting the world\u2019s oceans, and the environment at large.\nCompanies like Starbucks should be encouraged, not discouraged, to take #ClimateAction into their own hands \u2014 even if it faces risk and unwelcoming reactions from the American public. The only way we, as a nation, can lead on climate and take charge of our climate future is if we encourage companies and free market forces to take the lead, innovate and change what is possible into reality.\nI, for one, look forward to drinking my favorite iced coffee without a plastic straw the next time I go to Starbucks, which will probably be right in the morning after waking up, and three times more throughout the day...\nPRESS RELEASE: ACC Commends Nomination of Judge Kavanaugh\nBethany Bowra July 9, 2018",

        "raw_content": "The Greatest Generation | IWC Portugieser\nby Michael Williams\tPosted on May 4, 2015 \u2014Filed Under: Watches\nAbove, IWC\u2019s excellent new IWC Portugieser Hand-Wound Eight Days \u00e2\u20ac\u015375th Anniversary\u00e2\u20ac\u009d edition.\nIf one were to ask me to name my list of favorite brands, inevitably IWC will be there right near the top. It\u2019s the type of company who never stops to impress me with its combination of brains and good looks. The first real mechanical watch I ever owned was an IWC. That was a deliberate and hard fought experience. It took me five years to make it happen \u2013 a personal, career and aesthetic life challenge all-in-one. An IWC was something that I lusted after, saved for and eventually came to own. I still have that watch (Portuguese Automatic) and every time I wear it people remark how much they like it. Each time I put it on my wrist I am also reminded of the satisfaction of working hard to get something which I will own my entire life.\nNeedless to say considering my history, I have a deep connection with both IWC and the Portuguese family of watches. So when the news of the update to the Portuguese family (for the collection\u2019s 75th anniversary) in January, I was a bit nervous for what was to come. Thankfully IWC didn\u2019t disappoint and the new 2015 Portugieser collection managed to get even better. There\u2019s a few subtle changes \u2013smaller case diameters, adjusted case shapes\u2013 which add another level of refinement to this already stellar group of watches.\nThe handsome new 2015 Yacht Club has been sized down to 43.5mm.\nIWC always seems to hit the right marks for me when it comes to both the quality of the movement and the design. The navigational Portugieser collection being the timepieces I most enjoy. The collection has remained largely the same for the past five years and the core of that collection continues to resonate with me. This most recent update goes on to further refine those already great watches. The most striking development is the Hand-Wound Eight Days \u00e2\u20ac\u015375th Anniversary\u00e2\u20ac\u009d edition which is pictured at the top of the page. I\u2019ve got my eye on that guy. It comes in several materials including steel (limited to 750 pieces) and red gold. This watch is a direct throwback to the IWC timepieces from the 1940s and the styling is, in a word, strong. It\u2019s a watch like the Hand-Wound Eight-Days which makes this collection so perfect. There\u2019s a certain inherent flexibility and longevity which the Portugieser exudes so effortlessly. You can wear it with basically anything and take it basically anywhere. Like the many other obsessions of this site, it\u2019s also something with lasting aesthetics which will endure for the long term. Long live the IWC Portugieser! [IWC]\nThe IWC Portugieser Hand-Wound Eight-Days in Red Gold.

Built, or more precisely re-built in 2011, it is designed to offer clients the most versatile production environment while making possible any type of music recording from Jazz to Metal, without ever compromising sound quality.\nThis has been demonstrated by House of Glass Studio\u2019s recent activities over a few months with a range of diverse artists such as Mario Biondi and Raffaella Carr\u00e0, Paola & Chiara, Vasco Rossi, Savage and Francis Gabani, to name a few.\nCreating an inspiring environment and creative engergy\nBesides exceptional equipment, including the best microphones, preamps and an SSL Duality console, the studio is known for the professionalism of its staff. In addition, the location guarantees an atmosphere of absolute quiet, offering the client an inspiring environment in which to work. The comments studio owner Gianni Bini frequently gets from artists is how good House of Glass is in terms of its unique and positive creative energy.\nGetting the real feeling for a mix right a way\nAsked which problems Gianni had most encountered in a studio career which started in 1987, he responds, \u201cWell, ADAM Audio finally made it possible not to have to listen twice or more on different pairs of speakers to get the real feeling for a mix, which was a critical issue back then. I usually have to work with low frequencies. The quality I\u2019m looking for in monitors is a complete, round and full sound even when low frequencies are involved, and I believe that ADAM Audio is unsurpassed in this domain.\u201d\nAlmost the whole range of ADAM speakers\n\u201cI listened to the A7s at a friend\u2019s house\u201d, Gianni remembers about his first encounter with ADAM Audio monitors. \u201cI fell in love with them almost immediately.\nThen I found out how cost-effective ADAM monitors are, and now House of Glass studio almost has the whole range. I was impressed by the accuracy and unbroken clarity of the tweeter, a level of quality and continuity I wasn\u2019t used to.\u201d\nThe sound of House of Glass Studios is almost based exclusively on ADAM models, including two A7s, five A8Xs, two S3X-Hs, one Sub8 and two S7A MK2s. They all have been used for everything recorded at House of Glass. \u201cThe ADAM sound is very popular here in Italy,\u201d concludes Gianni, \u201cso comments from artists and guest sound engineers have been quite enthusiastic. Speaking of the S7A MK2s in particular, only a few were lucky enough to listen to them and were totally impressed by the sound quality at just about any frequency.\u201c",

        "raw_content": "Why Africa is the next renewables powerhouse\nIt is increasingly clear that Africa has the potential to lead the world in scaling-up and generating renewable energy.\nThe potential was made clear by delegates and speakers at Energy Day, on the African Development Bank pavilion at COP24 in Poland.\nSessions such as \u2018Unlocking Commercial Finance for Small-Scale Renewable Energy in Africa\u2019 covered the African Development Bank\u2019s \u201cFacility for Energy Inclusion\u201d (FEI) - a $500 million debt platform for small-scale renewables that aims to provide senior and mezzanine debt financing to small-scale projects and off-grid solutions, whilst a panel of speakers shared news about the \u2018Desert to Power\u2019 initiative, which seeks to harness the sun of the Sahel region across 11 countries in one of the biggest solar projects in the world.\nA later session drew lessons on energy efficiency in Africa; despite the huge renewable generation potential, this is still a critical element in the sustainable future for the region.\nAfrica has an almost unlimited potential of solar capacity (10 TW), abundant hydro (350 GW), wind (110 GW), and geothermal energy sources (15 GW). The International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) estimates that renewable energy capacity in Africa could reach 310 GW by 2030; which would put the continent at the forefront of renewable energy generation globally.\nThere is huge scope for Africa to build a climate-resilient and low-carbon continent, with attractive investment opportunities in climate-resilient infrastructure, climate-smart agriculture, and the sustainable management of natural resources.\nCase study: Morocco - largest concentrated solar park in world\nThe Ouarzazate solar complex in Morocco is one of the largest concentrated solar plants in the world. It has produced and delivered over 814 GWh of clean energy through the national electric grid since 2016. Last year, the solar plant saved 217,000 tons of CO2.\nFor Morocco, which until recently sourced 95% of its energy needs from external sources, this project is part of a drive to diversify sources of production and generate value from renewable energy sources. It is hoped that the country will increase its share of renewable energy to the total energy consumption to 42% by 2020.\nThe Ouarzazate solar complex project uses an innovative financing structure, which pools the capacities of independent power producers, who then sell the generated power back to the government in a public-private partnership.\nThe project\u2019s financing support mechanism will reduce the capital cost of solar power to levels comparable with traditional technologies and the wholesale cost of power in Morocco.\nAfrica needs a renewable energy revolution: the continent holds 15% of the world\u2019s population, yet may have to pay nearly 50% of the estimated global climate change adaptation costs.\nThese costs will cut expenditure on health, water supply, agriculture, and forestry, despite the continent\u2019s minimal contribution to global emissions.\nAnd that\u2019s not to mention the energy deficit that continues: most of the 600 million people without access to electricity live in Sub-Saharan Africa. This energy poverty across the continent holds back African economic development, and is estimated to cost the continent between 2% and 4 % of GDP annually.\nSpeaking about the \u2018Desert to Power\u2019 project in the Sahel region, Magdalena J. Seol, the African Development Bank\u2019s representative for the initiative, has noted that: \u201cWithout energy, it\u2019s impossible to imagine economic growth. A lack of energy has been one of the key factors that has hindered the economic development of the region.\u201d\nIn order to catalyse the transition to renewable energy, the African Development Bank has placed energy at the top of its High 5 priorities and launched the New Deal on Energy for Africa with an overarching goal of universal energy access in Africa by 2025.\nThis will be achieved through expanding grid power by 160 GW, and connecting 130 million people to the grid. Additionally, the Bank aims to connect 75 million people to off-grid systems and provide 150 million households with access to clean cooking energy.\nThe African Development Bank is also working with African countries to transform their energy utility sectors and attract investment in new energy markets.\nJoao Duarte Cunha, Manager for Energy Initiatives and Partnerships at the African Development Bank said, \u201cWe provide support along the entire project development continuum, providing resources from seed capital to technical assistance, debt finance and investments in private equity funds to build a renewable energy pipeline for Africa. We also work closely with governments to understand and tackle policy issues to create the right enabling conditions for this sector to thrive.\u201d\nIn a final closing statement in the Unlocking Commercial Finance for Small-Scale Renewable Energy in Africa\u2019 session, Dean Cooper - Energy Sector Market Development Manager at SNV, a non-profit international development organization founded in the Netherlands - said: \u201cEnergy... makes things happen - we need to always keep this in mind\u201d.\nThought of the day from COP on Energy Day\nAs Energy Day at COP24 comes to a close, it is clear that every country around the world must play its part in securing a safe and sustainable future.\nIf Africa can achieve its renewable energy potential - and find the funds to do so - the continent could make a significant contribution to securing a safe and sustainable future - not just for itself, but for every other region and country in the world.",

Agency Will Get a New Chief\nThe benefits administration also came under fire this year when it was late issuing payments to colleges and students under the new G.I. Bill. In response, Eric Shinseki, the secretary of veterans affairs, ordered offices to open on a Saturday to make emergency payments to students.\nIn announcing Mr. Dunne\u2019s resignation, Mr. Shinseki said: \u201cPat Dunne has guided the Veterans Benefits Administration through a number of challenges during his tenure as under secretary. I applaud his service and loyalty to our team and thank him for his unfailing commitment to our nation\u2019s veterans.\u201d\nA spokeswoman for Mr. Shinseki, Katie Roberts, denied suggestions by veterans\u2019 advocates that Mr. Dunne, a retired Navy rear admiral, had been forced out. \u201cHe served the department well,\u201d Ms. Roberts said.\nVeterans\u2019 advocates say the benefits administration has been slow to modernize. Revamping the department\u2019s outdated computer technology, along with reducing the claims backlog, is one of Mr. Shinseki\u2019s top priorities.\n\u201cVeterans wait an average of six months for an initial answer on a disability claim and another four to five years while they wait for appeals,\u201d said Paul Sullivan, executive director of Veterans for Common Sense.\nMr. Sullivan\u2019s group estimates that the backlog is close to one million claims, though the department says a more accurate measure places it at closer to half a million.\nThe benefits administration has separate headquarters from the Department of Veterans Affairs, and Mr. Sullivan said Mr. Shinseki should require the new under secretary to have offices under the same roof so they can work more closely.\n\u201cThey need a battle plan to overhaul the V.B.A. and bring them out of 19th-century paper processes,\u201d Mr. Sullivan said.\nMs. Roberts, the secretary\u2019s spokeswoman, said a commission would be assigned the task of recommending a list of potential successors to Mr. Dunne.

        "raw_content": "Volkswagen faces sales, reputation hit as it cheats on US air pollution tests\nUpdated Sep 22, 2015 \u2014 7.19pm, first published at Sep 20, 2015 \u2014 4.27pm\nVolkswagen's share price slumped by almost 20 per cent \u2013 its largest-ever drop in a single trading session \u2013 as investors worried about the massive costs German carmaker will face after cheating on US emissions tests.\nThe share price plunge, which wiped close to \u20ac15 billion ($23.6 billion) off Volkswagen's market capitalisation, tops off a trying period for the German carmaker. Five months ago, the company's chairman, Ferdinand Piech, resigned after a fiery boardroom showdown.\nThe giant German carmaker has also suffered as tumbling commodity prices have wreaked havoc with its important Russian and Brazilian markets. Even worse, Volkswagen is now facing the threat of a sharp slowdown in the crucial Chinese market, which accounts for more than 40 per cent of its sales and an even higher share of its profits.\nVolkswagen has halted US sales of some of its popular four-cylinder diesel-powered cars, a blow to its ambition to become the world's largest car seller. Supplied\nVolkswagen was ordered on Friday to recall nearly half a million cars in the United States after it admitted to the US regulator, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), that it had fitted \"defeat devices\" to its cars.\nEPA officials alleged that Volkswagen used highly sophisticated software that activates full emission controls only during testing but then reduces their effectiveness during normal driving. Experts say that this enables cars to get better fuel economy at the expense of higher nitrogen-oxide emissions.\nChief executive Martin Winterkorn\u200b has apologised and ordered an external investigation into the scandal.\n\"I personally am deeply sorry that we have broken the trust of our customers and the public,\" he said in a statement .\nAlready, Volkswagen has halted US sales of some of its popular four-cylinder diesel-powered cars, a blow to its ambition to become the world's biggest auto maker in terms of sales.\nThe German company has been trying to boost its US sales by promising its clean-diesel engines deliver better performance and low emissions.\nIn the first half of this year, Volkswagen overtook its long-term rival, the Japanese carmaker Toyota Motor, in terms of global sales. But the emissions' tests scandal could check its progress.\n$US18b fine possible\nBut Volkswagen not only risks losing US market share. The company faces a potential fine of as much as $US37,500 ($52,900) for each of the cars that violated clean air rules \u2013 which could work out to more than $US18 billion. This is a huge hit even for a company that notched up revenues of more than \u20ac200 billion in 2014.\nOn top of this, there's the cost of fixing the cars, potentially costly class action lawsuits from disgruntled customers, and the risk of a hefty fine from the US Justice Department, which has adopted a harder line with auto industry in the past few years.\nIn Germany, where Volkswagen is a source of national pride, the scandal has had huge coverage, with the local press labelling it a \"disaster\", a \"shock\" and a \"debacle\".\nSome investors also worried that Volkswagen was unlikely to have been the only company to cheat on the emission tests, and that it could be an industry-wide problem. This has pushed the share prices of other European car makers \u2013 such as BMW, Renault and Peugeot Citroen \u2013 lower.\nThe German government called for an urgent investigation into whether Volkswagen and other car makers had also manipulated the results of emissions tests in Germany. German Economy Minister Sigmar Gabriel expressed concern over the impact of what he called a \"bad case\" for the country's hugely important car industry.\n\"You will understand that we are worried that the justifiably excellent reputation of the German car industry and in particular that of Volkswagen is suffering\", he said.\nWorst Brexit fears become reality",

I hope you would start going to church this year.\u201d\nFalz however said his mother was right because he hardly went to church and he gave his reasons saying, 'I have nothing against the church or going to church; everyone has the right to practise the religion they desire but personally, as a Christian, it has been a while that I have been to church. It does not make me less of a Christian'.\nIn a chat with Punch, he went on to say,\n'the most important thing is spirituality and your personal connection with God. The reason I haven\u2019t attended a church service in a long while is because I went to a few churches and during sermons, I was put under undue pressure. There was a time that a pastor called me to the altar just to acknowledge my presence for being in church.\n\u201cIn my mind, I felt that the service was not about me. I felt that everybody was there to worship God, yet they were putting undue pressure on me. The pastor gave me the microphone to address the congregation and I was puzzled; what did he expect me to say to the congregation?\nThese are some of the issues. I just want to go to church and worship God like a regular member of the congregation. I do not want that kind of attention. I was hoping that I would go to church on a Sunday and it would not be like any other day I\u2019m at a public place or doing a show'.",

The 6,010-square-foot house has five bedrooms, 6 1/2 bathrooms, and, of course, a great swimming pool.\nIt also has four fireplaces, a 350-bottle wine room, shiplap walls and a sports room. The house was built in 2015.\nPhelps bought the house after becoming Arizona State University's assistant swim coach. It's not clear yet why he's selling. It could be he and Nicole Phelps are looking for a bigger Valley home to make room for their second son, born in February. \"Our backyard looks right at Camelback Mountain,\" Phelps told the Associated Press in early 2016. \"You go outside in our backyard, and we have orange and tangerine and lemon and lime and peach and apple \u2014 all these different fruit trees growing in our backyard.\"\nThe most decorated Olympian ever bought the house through an LLC.\nA Baltimore house linked to Phelps sold for almost $1 million in July 2016.\nPhelps was 15 when he made his Olympic debut at the 2000 Games in Sydney.

        "raw_content": "What Generation of Candidates are You Appealing To?\nLooking at the available candidates for hire, you\u2019ll see a wide array of ages \u2013 many companies have three different generations all working at the same place: baby boomers, Generation X, and Generation Y (usually referred to as millennials). These three groups grew up in extremely different times, and as such, they often approach work differently. One isn\u2019t necessarily better than another; each brings something special to the table, and all of these groups are viable members of the workforce. So how do you create a multi-generational office that runs successfully?\nBaby boomers tend to focus more on work than family life because they grew up during a time when that was the norm. This post-WWII generation, growing up during a time of strong inflation and civil rights, has a very strong work ethic and tends to prefer offices that focus on employee work achievements and a steady culture \u2013 they\u2019re probably the most resistant to change of all three groups. However, baby boomers are still eager to learn new skills to stay current.\nGeneration X treads the line of having become adults at a fascinating time when technology really began to explode, so they\u2019re technically knowledgeable. Thanks to their Vietnam-era parents, they value diversity, and they began the trend of wanting more of a work-life balance, so be sure your company offers flexibility. They\u2019re usually well educated, adaptable, and quick to add new skills, adding a great deal of value to any company.\nMillennials currently make up about 36% of the workforce, and that number will grow as baby boomers retire. They\u2019re very connected through social media and view the world as a place where everything\u2019s just a few clicks away. They prefer to work in teams, and a job with group collaboration appeals to them. Contrary to popular opinion, many millennials have a great work ethic, especially when it comes to something that appeals to their passions.\nIt is possible to create a workplace where everyone will fit into the culture. Assigning projects and setting expectations based on each generation\u2019s strengths will help things flow smoothly. For example, allow time for baby boomers to receive technical help from millenials, as long as millenials schedule one-on-one meetings with baby boomers rather than groups. Gen Xers may wish to work outside the hours of a standard workday in order to meet all of their personal and professional obligations. Their team members should feel confident that all of their projects will be finished and all deadlines will be met. Baby boomers should be utilized when it comes to verbal communication as email was not in existence when they began their careers. Although these are very different generations shaped by cultural events and technological breakthroughs, they are able to work together to provide a stronger, more well-rounded workforce.

        "raw_content": "Homepage : Comment : Sexual abuse in the workplace: Address the problem, not the symptoms\nSexual abuse in the workplace: Address the problem, not the symptoms\n99% of Egyptian women reported experiencing some form of sexual abuse [Anadolu]\nWomen's rights, sexual harrassment, Weinstein, Saudi Arabia, Australia\nAs revelations around the alleged sexual abuse by Hollywood mogul Harvey Weinstein continue to surface, I've found myself reflecting not only on how common abuse in the workplace is, but how it can play out differently, depending on your circumstances.\nIn my early days of journalism, these workplace power structures became quickly evident to me, particularly as someone in a position like mine required me to foster strong relationships with people in various industries.\nAs a woman in a headscarf, I was afforded a certain consideration, perhaps respect, and maybe \u2013 somewhere in there \u2013 a level of pity by people around me. I was present but not really a participant in the real world everyone else occupied. They had less \"innocent\" lives, they had freedoms I lacked, and I was inexperienced and unable to truly play with the big kids. It meant that I never felt I could talk about situations that made me uncomfortable without being accused of being precious or conservative.\nMake no mistake: I had some bad experiences in the headscarf. But taking it off at this particular time saw a shift in behaviours from others that was noticeable. Not only was I treated differently \u2013 and not necessarily in a good way \u2013 by superiors, I was also the subject of fascination by industry connections and colleagues.\nThis is not meant to sound self-flattering. I was not special; I was just female. And like a magic trick, taking off the scarf changed everything around me, including how men and women behaved towards me. From my earliest days working in retail, I had seen and experienced the vulnerability of being a woman in the workplace. At a supermarket job, twice I was pinched by males who were strangers. And later, even in jobs that were occupied solely by females, I was subject to massive amounts of judgment and discrimination based on my background.\nFor Muslim women, for example, the idea is constantly peddled that a headscarf keeps you safe. It doesn't.\nBut the more difficult experiences came later, when I was in journalism and freshly sans headscarf. In one memorable meeting, a male industry executive made inappropriate comments about his attraction to me, indicating a very clear departure from his previous behaviours with me. Not keen to embarrass him (as though his feelings were more important than mine), I brushed him off as politely \u2013 and lightly \u2013 as I could. There was no danger, but there was a great deal of discomfort. I knew I might see him again at an industry event. My manager at the time subtly but unmistakeably directed the blame at me. He'd warned me about the 'harasser' (he hadn't), and so \u2013 in his mind - it was my fault.\nUltimately, the professional relationship with the contact turned sour. I had lost a valuable professional relationship because I rejected his advances.\nI don't think my experience was at all uncommon. If it's not sexual harassment, women are often vulnerable to bullying or even physical abuse. In another job, a discussion with a co-worker quickly escalated into a confrontation when the very tall, heavyset man picked me up by my arms, leaving bruises. My manager and the HR representative seemed deeply uncomfortable by my reporting of the incident, and so I quickly felt self-conscious about it. My manager in particular tried to suggest that I'd asked for it. Both of the people I was reporting the incident to were females.\nRead more: The New Arab's special coverage on women's rights in the Middle East.\nIt's unfortunate, and I loathe to share such experiences, but it's necessary. My concern does not stem from my own feeling of sensitivity \u2013 I long ago made peace with the situations, though perhaps not the unfairness of them all. Rather, I know that talking about it could give ammunition to people who advocate that women need protection. For Muslim women, for example, the idea is constantly peddled that a headscarf keeps you safe.\nIt doesn't. You can still be an object of fascination. You can still behave however you choose. You can still be the victim of poor behaviour and abuse.\nBut from a wider, societal perspective, how you dress acts like a security blanket that protects you from criticism. You weren't asking for trouble if you were dressed modestly, or in a headscarf. In the recent Weinstein scandal, fashion designer Donna Karan even went so far as to challenge the women reporting Weinstein's behaviour (they are good friends).\n\"\u2026 how do we display ourselves? How do we present ourselves as women? What are we asking? Are we asking for it by presenting all the sensuality and all the sexuality?\"\nAnd this is the pertinent point for me: the women who reported Weinstein all spoke of how they blamed themselves and had to live with shame.\nIn all of my experiences where I was made to feel uncomfortable around a male colleague or contact, I always looked first at myself. I was always the one left to feel icky. And this is because no one ever talks about changing the attitudes of men. We talk about protecting women from men, not embedding in males from a young age that women are not their inferiors and sexual objects to play with as they please.\nThis attitude is pervasive and, unfortunately \u2013 as recent events demonstrate \u2013 universal.\nIn the Middle East, women talked often about how easily the need to protect women is invoked as the reason for restricting them.\nTake Halima, a women's rights activist from Jordan, who had an admirable way of getting to the heart of the issue succinctly:\n\"I always say about the women in Saudi Arabia - the issue isn't to sit in the car and take the wheel. It's to steer your life.\"\nRead more: Sexual assault in MENA 'caused by fragile male ego'\nThis is indeed at the heart of the rights issues facing Saudi women \u2013 driving is a symptom of a much larger, damaging issue, that of guardianship laws that see women treated like minors.\nAnd on the lack of trust of women \u2013 which says that they should not have the same freedom afforded men \u2013 I asked Halima if it was really men that aren't trusted.\nWhy don't we work on changing the men?\n\"Yes. They don't trust women and they don't trust themselves. This is the situation. And this is why they use the justification that all men are wolves, they are evil, you can't trust them and we want to protect women.\"\n\"Why don't we work on changing the men?\"\n\"No one wants to work on changing men. It's easier to control women in our society because in our society, if you have a daughter and a son, you will control your daughter and not allow her to go out late, but you will not control your son. Although your son will go to others and he will abuse other women.\"\nAnd this is what I find most concerning, not only when it comes to the acts of abuse women experience, but the ways in which we talk about it. We reiterate negative stereotypes about women. We continue to emphasise that it's the responsibility of women to make it easier for men to not harass them.\nBut even as subjects of abuse, not all experiences are created equal, and nor are our reactions to them.\n'Man up and control your daughters,' says Egyptian campaign\nBlog: Sexual predators attack their victims regardless of whether they are elderly or underage, but claim to be victims of their own testosterone.\nGehad Quisay\nAll Egyptian women are survivors of sexual violence\nBlog: A viral hashtag has reopened discussion about Egypt's sexual harassment epidemic - but why is it happening and how did it start?",

Photo: GPO.\nIndian Prime Minister Narendra Modi\u2019s historic visit to Israel is a wake-up call to those who believe the Jewish state is isolated and friendless, a leading expert on Indian-Israeli relations told The Algemeiner on Thursday.\n\u201cThose who say we are isolated, as [former President Barack] Obama\u2019s Secretary of State John Kerry did, should switch on the news,\u201d said Shalom Wald \u2014 a senior fellow at the Jewish People Policy Institute (JPPI) in Jerusalem and the co-author of the recently-published book, India, Israel and the Jewish People: Looking Ahead, Looking Back 25 Years After Normalization.\nThe \u201ctremendous success\u201d of Modi\u2019s visit was an appropriate riposte to Kerry\u2019s December 2016 speech in which he warned that Israel\u2019s policies in the West Bank were isolating the country from the rest of the international community, Wald said.\n\u201cJust by visiting, Modi confirmed publicly that he had undertaken a major U-turn in Indian policy,\u201d Wald said. \u201cThe Indian media was enthusiastic, hundreds of millions of Indians heard about Israel and Judaism for the first time.\u201d\nModi\u2019s visit to Israel \u2014 the first by a serving Indian premier since both countries achieved independence from British rule in 1947-48 \u2014 came to an end on Thursday. Before departing for the G-20 Summit in Hamburg, Modi and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu headed to Haifa\u2019s Olga Beach, where they attended a demonstration of an Israeli-designed desalination unit that can provide clean drinking water for up to 22,000 people per day.\nLater on, the two premiers lunched with Indian and Israeli CEOs. \u201cWe are making a partnership here, a real one, to excel in innovation for both of our peoples and for the entire world,\u201d Netanyahu told the gathering.\n\u201cIsrael is known as a \u2018start-up nation,'\u201d Modi said. \u201cIt has a unique sense and ecosystem of innovation and incubation. Credit must go to the Israeli entrepreneurs.\u201d\nIsraeli and Indian companies finalized deals on trade worth up to $5 billion at the meeting, the Times of India reported.\nModi\u2019s visit covered an enormous range of issues, with media attention concentrating largely on commercial trade and the potential for Israeli technology to revolutionize Indian agriculture. But defense and security cooperation was also a significant, if less visible, component of the trip, Wald observed.\n\u201cWisely, Netanyahu and Modi spoke little about military cooperation,\u201d he said. \u201cThere was no need to antagonize the Arab states and the Palestinians on this point.\u201d\nWhen Modi was first elected as India\u2019s prime minister in 2014, Wald judged his victory at the time to be \u201ca good day for Israel \u2014 a ray of hope in the country\u2019s difficult situation.\u201d In the intervening period, he has become only more optimistic.\n\u201cHis victory of 2014 was massively repeated in March 2017,\u201d Wald said in reference to Modi\u2019s landslide win which saw him take India\u2019s largest state, Uttar Pradesh, by a victory margin not seen in thirty years. Many Indian pundits are predicting a Modi triumph on a similar scale in the forthcoming 2019 general election.\n\u201cThis is now really a long-term leadership,\u201d Wald said, comparing Modi to Jawaharlal Nehru, one of India\u2019s most charismatic independence leaders who served as prime minister from 1947-64.\nWald said that Modi would have to remain \u201csensitive to the 15 percent of the Indian population that is Muslim.\u201d But, he added, there had been a marked lack of protest among India\u2019s Muslim population, who number nearly 200 million, over Modi\u2019s embrace of ties with Israel.\n\u201cIsrael is not the priority for Indian Muslims,\u201d Wald said. \u201cThey want bread on their tables and they want freedom of access to their mosques. Israel is far away.\u201d\nIn addition, Wald said, Israel\u2019s burgeoning alliance with New Delhi could favorably impact the Jewish state\u2019s relations with other countries in the region that are closely tied with India \u2014 among them Sri Lanka, Nepal, Bhutan and Bangladesh, the latter a predominantly Muslim country that achieved independence from Muslim Pakistan in large part because of Indian military intervention.\nWald concluded that Israel now faces a strong challenge in living up to the high expectations generated by Modi\u2019s visit.\n\u201cWe have done a lot of good in India, but India expects a lot from Israel \u2013 if we don\u2019t perform, disappointment will set in,\u201d he said. \u201cFor example, Israeli drip irrigation currently serves 60,000 farmers in India, but they have 600 million farmers. Can we upgrade to this scale?\u201d\nWald expressed confidence that India would be left with few regrets. \u201cIsraelis are extremely inventive, and they have an ability to improvise,\u201d he said.\nWald observed that Israelis had watched Modi\u2019s visit with a degree of delighted amazement. \u201cJews are always suspicious when things are too good,\u201d he joked. \u201cWe are no longer used to people loving us so much.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Obama: Iran deal is once in a lifetime opportunity\nUS president defends framework understanding as opportunity to prevent nuclear bomb and bring security to Middle East.\nObama said the US will make sure the Iran deal does not threaten Israel's own military advantage [AP]\nUnited States President Barack Obama has defended a framework nuclear understanding with Iran as a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to prevent Iran building a nuclear bomb and bring longer-term security to the Middle East, insisting the US will stand in defence of Israel.\nIn an interview with The New York Times, published on Sunday night, Obama argues the risks of a deal are far outweighed by potential gains if it deters Iran's nuclear weapons aspirations, since the US is a far superior military power who can protect its core security interests.\nHe said the US will make sure the deal does not threaten Israel's own military advantage.\nThe notion that Iran is undeterrable is \"simply not the case\", Obama told The Times.\nWill lifting sanctions mean a new era for Iran?\n\"And so for us to say, 'Let's try' - understanding that we're preserving all our options, that we're not naive - but if in fact we can resolve these issues diplomatically, we are more likely to be safe, more likely to be secure, in a better position to protect our allies.\"\n'Committed to Israel'\nObama added that he was \"absolutely committed\" to making sure Israel maintains \"their qualitative military edge\" and was willing to make clear that \"if Israel were to be attacked by any state, that we would stand by them\".\nObama expressed concern about how the talks have strained US-Israel relations, indicating how he takes it personally when he's accused of being anti-Israel.\n\"Part of what has always made the US-Israeli relationship so special is that it has transcended party, and I think that has to be preserved. There has to be the ability for me to disagree with a policy on settlements, for example, without being viewed as ... opposing Israel.\"\nObama's comments came as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu urged the US on Sunday to seek a better deal to curb Iran's nuclear programme and US Senate Republicans pressed their demand that the US Congress be allowed to vote on the agreement.\nNetanyahu engages in US\nNetanyahu has been strongly critical of the deal struck on Thursday in Switzerland, saying it threatens the survival of Israel. Netanyahu said he has spoken with both Democrats and Republicans in Congress - nearly two-thirds of House of Representatives members and a similar number in the US Senate - about the Iran nuclear issue.\nIn appearances on US television on Sunday, Netanyahu did not repeat his assertion on Friday that any final agreement should include a commitment by Iran recognising Israel's right to exist.\nBut, speaking on CNN's \"State of the Union\" programme, he said of the deal, \"This is not a partisan issue. This is not solely an Israeli issue. This is a world issue because everyone is going to be threatened by the pre-eminent terrorist state of our time, keeping the infrastructure to produce not one nuclear bomb but many, many nuclear bombs down the line.\"",

        "title": "Tax Planning Through Your Life | ALMEA Insurance, Inc.",
        "raw_content": "Tax planning is perhaps one of the most misunderstood aspects of financial planning. Most people only think seriously about taxes when they file their annual state and federal tax returns. While there are things you can do to reduce your taxes when filing, like making sure you\u2019re taking advantage of all possible tax credits and deductions, by that point, it\u2019s really too late to do any serious tax planning.\nTrue tax planning involves making strategic decisions throughout the year that will help you minimize taxes both in the coming April and perhaps many years in the future. And, contrary to many people\u2019s assumptions, tax planning isn\u2019t something that\u2019s just for the ultrawealthy. If you earn money and file taxes, you can probably benefit from some level of tax planning. Today, we\u2019ll walk you through some key tax planning issues you may face throughout your life.\nYou\u2019re just getting started building your life and career, and there\u2019s a good chance your taxes are a bit more complicated than they were when you were a high school or college student. Consider sitting down with an accountant to make sure you understand where things stand with your finances and that you are doing all you can to reduce the taxes you owe. Specific tax planning steps you may want to take in your 20s include:\nContribute money to a tax-deferred retirement account, like a 401(k) plan or IRA.\nKeep track of your student loan payments, if you have them. If your income falls below certain\nLimits, you may be able to deduct the interest you pay on that debt, even if you don\u2019t itemize.\nSave receipts and other records if you move for a new job, since expenses related to a move you make for work can be deducted even if you don\u2019t itemize.\nCheck your withholding. If you\u2019re getting a big refund at tax time, you may need to tweak how much is being withheld from your paycheck, so that you\u2019re not giving an interest-free loan to the government.\nFinally, make sure you\u2019re keeping all your key financial documents organized. Find a secure place to store everything, and get essential documents from your parent is they still have them, like your Social Security card, birth certificate, and information about any accounts they may have opened for you when you were a minor.\nYour finances are probably getting more complicated as you increase your savings and complete major financial goals like buying a house. These tips will help you keep things on track:\nKeep saving for retirement in tax-deferred accounts but also look into accounts that will generate tax-free income in retirement, like a Roth IRA or Roth 401(k) plan. Yes, you\u2019ll pay more in taxes now, but you\u2019ll be happy to have a tax-free option for income once you stop working.\nGetting married or having children? Set up a meeting with a tax advisor or financial advisor (or both together) to make sure you\u2019re making tax-smart financial decisions, like itemizing or not itemizing your return. An advisor can also talk to you about setting up a 529 plan to help pay for your children\u2019s future college educations.\nThe government has plenty of credits and deductions for people with children, like the child tax credit, the child and dependent care credit, and the adoption credit. Know what you do \u2013 and don\u2019t \u2013 qualify for.\nTake advantage of flexible spending plans and reimbursement accounts. Between you, your spouse, and your children, you may be spending a lot of money on co-pays, prescription drugs, dental appointments, and more. Save a bit of cash by using money in a tax-free flexible spending account for these costs.\nYou\u2019re hitting your financial stride. Don\u2019t let any bumps in the road derail your financial plans:\nIncomes tend to hit their peak when people hit their 40s. That\u2019s good news, but it also means that you may find yourself in a higher tax bracket. If that happens, look for ways to reduce your taxable income, like maximizing deductible retirement contributions.\nYou may be making more money than in past years, which could mean that you\u2019re ready to upgrade your charitable giving. Make sure you\u2019re keeping track of any gifts you make to eligible charities, whether they are in cash, stock, or in-kind gifts, since you\u2019ll need that documentation if you plan to deduct them on your tax return.\nIf your children are headed off to college, don\u2019t neglect tax credits for education, like the lifetime learning credit and the American opportunity tax credit.\nSome parents may draw money from taxable investment accounts to pay for college or other expenses. If you\u2019re tapping that cash, be aware of the tax implications of selling appreciated securities. It may be well worth it to meet with an advisor before you make any big moves.\nAs you hit the mid-century mark, keep doing what you can to reduce the taxes you owe and save as much as you can for retirement.\nDon\u2019t forget about catch-up contributions to IRAs and 401(k) plans. In 2015, you can contribute an extra $6,000 to a 401(k) plan and an extra $1,000 to an IRA once you hit age 50.\nStart thinking about health care expenses in retirement, if you haven\u2019t already. Putting some money into a tax-free health savings account is a way to reduce your taxable income today and have a tax-free fund to draw on for health expenses later in life.\nSelling the family home? Don\u2019t neglect to consider the potential tax implications.\nIf you\u2019ve earned stock options or other perks through your employer, make sure you understand the tax implications of a cash-out.\nRetirement is on the horizon. The tax planning decisions you make in the decade will be crucial to your overall retirement success.\nUnderstand how your Social Security benefits will be taxed. Up to 85% of your total benefit may be taxed, depending on how much other income you have.\nConsider converting a traditional IRA to a Roth IRA. Some people may benefit from paying the taxes on the conversion now for the promise of tax-free income later on. For those who are not eligible for traditional or Roth IRAs, consider contributing to a nondeductible IRA. As of 2011, all taxpayers, regardless of income level, can convert traditional IRAs to Roth IRAs.\nCheck your options before retiring. The choices you make regarding distributions from your pension plans and IRAs will have a significant impact on your tax situation after retirement. Make sure you review all your options before deciding how to withdraw those funds.\nPlease call if you would like to discuss your tax situation in more detail.\n\u2190 News and Announcements: August 2015\nWatch Out for These Tax Mistakes \u2192",

        "raw_content": "Visit http://www.fronius-usa.com for further information\nPortage, IN (October, 2014) Fronius USA recently hosted a ribbon cutting ceremony to celebrate the completion of ITRAC, the Innovations Test Research And Application Center, significantly expanding the rooftop PV array above their 400,000-square-foot manufacturing plant and US headquarters in Portage, Indiana.\nThe state of the art facility, housing Fronius USA's administrative, manufacturing, technical support and repair services as well, is now able to simulate real-life situations in the every evolving solar industry and capture research and data, as well as develop new solutions and technologies, all within the United States.\nThe privately-held, family-owned company started doing research outside of its International headquarters for the first time in its 70-year history when it opened its U.S. headquarters in Portage a few years ago. Fronius has since installed more than 500 modules on the roof in order to harvest the sun's energy, boost its research capability and develop new products. The panel can generate up to 30 percent of the energy needed to run the facility, which includes corporate offices, a sophisticated welding lab and a solar inverter manufacturing area.\nThe Indiana Economic Development Corporation President Eric Doden was on hand Thursday, October 2, 2014 for a ribbon-cutting ceremony on the roof along with Director of Solar Energy for Fronius USA Thomas Enzendorfer and Martin Beran, Head of System Support Group for Fronius USA.\n\"People frequently ask why Fronius installed solar panels in the often snow-blitzed Northwest Indiana of all places, when the U.S. solar industry has largely clustered in California,\" said Director Solar Energy Thomas Enzendorfer. \"But the company's goal is to make solar energy mainstream, which is why we chose the Midwest, America's heartland.\"\nAt the Portage facility, researchers can test the solar panels during all four seasons, when it's overcast, and when they get sullied with light dirt from the nearby steel mills, Enzendorfer said. They have been positioning panels in different directions of the roof to test real-world conditions and compare the energy generation of flat roof panels with canted panels that actively follow the sun.\nBeran said the array will help researchers make current Fronius products more reliable and develop new products, such as to store solar energy so it can be used when it's dark.\n\"We started this project one and a half years ago and we learn as we go,\" he said. \"We mimic a residential system here. We mimic a commercial system here. We test with shading, with non-perfect conditions. As the industry develops, it's important to show that solar makes sense in some not-so-perfect conditions.\"\nFronius is constantly innovating and plans to even further expand its operations and array in the future, Enzendorfer said. Fronius USA also develops custom welding machines that have been used to weld steel to aluminum and that the electric car company, Telsa, utilizes in its production facilities.\n\"This is great, but it's just the beginning,\" Beran said.\"\nAbout Fronius USA Solar Energy Division\nFronius USA LLC, headquartered in Portage, Indiana, is the leader in photovoltaic (PV) system inverters and applicable accessories. The company is a part of a global network and subsidiary of Fronius International GmbH, headquartered in Wels, Austria. Fronius USA LLC has three divisions: Perfect Welding, Solar Energy and Perfect Charging. Through innovation and new technologies, Fronius USA has become a resource for quality service, products and innovations to the growing solar industry.

        "raw_content": "Dementia doesn\u2019t change your right to vote on June 8\nWith a general election just around the corner, it\u2019s a good time to remember that people with dementia have the same right to vote as everyone else.\nNo one can be prevented from voting just because they have dementia, and it is important we send this message far and wide to ensure that people with dementia have an equal voice in their communities up and down the country.\nHowever, the deadline to register is fast approaching and you must register to vote by 11.59pm on Monday 22 May.\nDementia and voting\nThe Mental Capacity Act, which provides a framework for making decisions on behalf of people who lack capacity to make a decision, does not apply to voting. This means that a lack of mental capacity does not stop someone from being able to vote. It is up to the person to decide if they want to vote.\nHowever, there are some barriers that people with dementia may face when the time comes to go to the polls.\nIt may be that someone needs support to vote, for example, being reminded to go to their polling station on the right date, and getting to the right place. Councils have a responsibility to make sure that polling stations are accessible so if you do need any assistance, you can ask the staff at the polling station.\nIt\u2019s important to note that if you have made a Lasting Power of Attorney, your attorney cannot vote on your behalf.\nBut, anyone can appoint someone else to vote on their behalf. This is called voting by proxy and the deadline for appointing a proxy is 5pm on Wednesday 31 May. Your proxy does not make a decision about who to vote for \u2013 they just fulfil your wishes. Although you don\u2019t need mental capacity to vote, you do need mental capacity to appoint a proxy.\nThe right to vote is not taken away by dementia. The General Election on June 8 is a chance to have your say, and there is plenty of support available to make sure that you can. Just make sure you register before it\u2019s too late!\nThe right to vote is not taken away by dementia.\nThe General Election on June 8 is a chance to have your say, and there is plenty of support available to make sure that you can. Just make sure you register before it\u2019s too late!\nAs a person with dementia, I know that my capacity to make rational decisions is reducing. I will have stop driving at some point, or risk harming myself or others. Similarly, there will be a time when we can't form an opinion about government, and just want to be left in peace. Everyone should have the chance to vote, but should not have it forced upon them.\nDoes the above mean that someone who has Lasting Power of Attorney cannot be made a Proxy voter?\nHi Sue, providing the person with dementia has capacity to appoint a proxy there is nothing to prevent them appointing someone who also happens to have Lasting Power of Attorney. The only criteria for the proxy is that the nominated person is registered to vote and is also allowed to vote in the same type of election.\nHope this clears it up, and if you need any other support or guidance please feel free to contact our National Dementia Helpline on 0300 222 1122 or email the team on [email protected]\nSpelile Barker\nI look after elderly people living with Dementia and have documents stating they have no mental capacity and they receive voting paper work. Where do we stand with this when the 'voting by proxy' says the person living with dementia can be assisted to vote by proxy only if they have Mental Capacity to appoint a proxy.\nMrs Norman\nHello I am the appointee for my mother. No power of attorney as did not have mental capacity to do so no estate etc Any mail for her is not being passed on to me at the home she is in. One of which was her voting form which I have been given some months later. They had filled the form in for her for postal vote to be set up.(but not sent in I think As I now have). As her appointee it should be myself who dealt with this and has her proxy? As she does not have the mental capacity to do so. As surely this could be giving a vote to candidate's that she would not of been her choice. And they are voting for who they want. Hence me as appointee should be the one to act on this for her. If at all! Advice would be very helpful. Thankyou.\nHi Mrs Norman, thanks for your comment.\nWhen it comes to voting only the person themselves can choose who they wish to vote for. Some people choose to nominate someone to act as their proxy \u2013 but this is to enable someone to fulfil their wishes and complete the voting form on their behalf and vote how they wish, the proxy MUST follow the persons wishes and vote how the person wants. A proxy under voting is someone that is appointed to only assist with voting and not anything else and the person should have asked for them to be their proxy. As an appointee for your mother you have the power to manage your mother\u2019s benefits, and I\u2019m afraid this is as far as the power stretches and so does not give you the right to vote on her behalf. If you wish to be your mother\u2019s proxy your mother would need to complete the proxy application form.\nA care home cannot vote on a residents behalf, instead many set up postal voting for their residents and will support the resident in voting. Legally no one can place a vote on another\u2019s behalf, instead the system, including proxy voting is about supporting and assisting someone to be able to make their own vote, so I hope this reassures you to know that legally they shouldn\u2019t be voting themselves using your mother\u2019s vote. I would suggest that you speak with the care home about how they handle voting and what support they offer. From what you have said I gather your mother is set up for a postal vote, so maybe ask about being there to support her with completing it next time there is an election or a referendum, or checking with them about what they do to help her to vote.\nHope this is helpful, and do let us know if you have any more questions.",

        "raw_content": "AG News: Sergio Garcia responds to shooting a 13 on day one of The Masters\nSergio Garcia responds to shooting a 13 on day one of The Masters\nWhen Sergio Garcia approached the 15th hole, it would be fair to say not many people expected to see him capitulate in such an extraordinary manner.\nLast year Garcia shot two 69s, a 70 and a 71. Thursday, he signed for an 81.\nThe golf ball hit the bank over the water and bounced straight back, highlighting why Augusta has frequently frustrated Garcia in the past.\n\"It's the first time in my career where I make a 13 without missing a shot,\" Garcia said. \"Simple as that. You saw it,\" he said. \"I don't think I need to describe it.\n\"If it carries probably two more feet, it's probably good. And if it probably carries a foot less, it probably doesn't go off the green and probably stays on the fringe\u2026But unfortunately, I flew it on the perfect spot for it to come back.\"\nGarcia maintains he made some good shots, however, saying: \"I kept hitting good shots with the sand wedge. And unfortunately, I don't know why, the ball just wouldn't stop.\"\nGarcia finished by saying, \"It's one of those things. It's just unfortunate.\"",

        "raw_content": "I was dashing through the mall the other day, completely distracted, oblivious to my surroundings, as I looked for some little gadget I needed in order to keep my life humming along. I don\u2019t even remember what it was now\u2014a phone cord, a coffee pot\u2014something essential and unexciting.\nIt took a while, but eventually this piece of information got through to me: It\u2019s Christmas. There were carols playing, and glittery plastic snowflakes hanging from the ceiling. Oh yeah, I thought. There\u2019s stuff to buy. Merry to make. Nog to drink.\nAnd as always, there\u2019s my annual plea (or is it a perennial plea?) to give small, useful, inexpensive, and\u2014best of all\u2014living, breathing gifts this holiday season. I also want to extend a helping hand to those of you who are shopping for gardeners. You might think that we are very picky about our gardening implements, or that we probably have everything we need, but you would be wrong. This time of year, gardeners are feeling a little deprived. We\u2019re itching to get out and do something in the garden. Give us a little packet of seeds or a couple of bulbs and we\u2019ll sit there on Christmas morning (or whatever your designated gift-giving holiday may be), oblivious to the mounds of wrapping paper and the unopened gifts around us, fingering those seeds, humming a little to ourselves, scheming about the next opportunity to get outdoors and get something in the ground. Oh, the garden, we\u2019re thinking. It\u2019s time to get back to that. Thanks for reminding us.\nGardening gloves: I know I\u2019ve been ranting about gloves a lot lately, but judging from the mail I\u2019ve been getting, I\u2019m not alone in my quest for a pair of gloves that fits and that doesn\u2019t fall apart. I know that buying gloves for someone else seems like a dicey proposition, but there\u2019s something very warm and intimate in the idea that someone cared enough about the well-being of my frostbitten, mud-soaked, thorn-scratched hands to want to protect them. Garden gloves don\u2019t come in a wide range of sizes\u2014that\u2019s part of the problem\u2014so you\u2019ve only got to get in the ballpark in terms of size.\nGarden gift shops and nurseries carry Foxgloves, which are lovely little close-fitting fabric gloves in very hip colors. They\u2019re nice for someone who just wants to keep the dirt off their hands but isn\u2019t going to be out tearing the garden apart for days on end. I\u2019ve become a recent convert to Atlas coated gloves. They come in a variety of thicknesses, arm lengths, and coatings to keep water and even thorns out. They even make a \u201cpond\u201d glove for taking care of water features or wet areas.\nGloves range in price from five to twenty dollars; there are pricier options, but I have yet to see them last any longer than the cheap ones. If you\u2019re not sure what to get, they\u2019re inexpensive enough that you can probably buy a few pair.\nSeeds, Bulbs, Plants: You can\u2019t go wrong here. Really, don\u2019t worry about buying a gardener the wrong plant. He or she will find a place for it, no matter what it is. Most nurseries carry three or four interesting lines of seeds. You can get ten packets for about twenty-five bucks; pick an assortment of whatever herbs, flowers, or vegetables most remind you of the person or their garden. Or if you know someone who has a passion for a particular plant, find as many seed varieties as you can. For instance, sweet peas, poppies, sunflowers, tomatoes, and basil all come in such a wide range of verities that you could probably put together a dozen of each.\nIt\u2019s not too late to find spring-blooming bulbs on sale, either. Tulips, hyacinths, and paperwhite narcissus can all be forced indoors, and you can pair the bulbs with a pot or a vase. Amaryllis bulbs are an extravagance that gardeners might not allow themselves\u2014you\u2019d be amazed at how luxurious it feels to own one ten-dollar bulb.\nPlants are a great idea too\u2014try a potted lavender, an orchid, or a winter-blooming heather. And if you happen to know that the gardener in your life is passionate about fruit trees, berry vines, or roses, it\u2019s bareroot season. (A bareroot plant, for the uninitiated, is a dormant bunch of roots that isn\u2019t even sold in a pot. You just fish around in a sort of raised bed of damp, mossy, dirty stuff and pull out one that looks good.) Keep the roots damp and wrapped in earth and newspaper until it\u2019s time to plant them; if you can figure out how to pull that off and still make it look good under the tree, extra points for you.\nMake it personal: My latest, grandest idea for gardeners is to show off their garden for the work of art it is by making something for them at a place like www.cafepress.com. Just click on \u201cmake your own stuff\u201d and get to work. All you need is a photograph (or a drawing, or a painting, or a slogan) in one of the many computer file formats they accept, and you can upload an image and have it printed on a T-shirt, a calendar, a mug, or almost any kind of merchandise you can think of. And if you\u2019re feeling very entrepreneurial, you can even list your stuff for sale on CafePress\u2019s website and make a buck or two every time somebody places an order. Shutterfly.com offers a similar service; if you have a lot of photographs of the garden in its summer glory, consider putting them all together in a hardcover, coffee-table size book for around thirty bucks. Gardens, after all, are ephemeral things, glorious one day and faded the next. Keeping them alive through winter, if only in memory, might be the best thing you can do for a gardener.",

        "raw_content": "World Skiing Cup\non the gro\u00dfer Arber\nThe History of the World Skiing Cup on the Gro\u00dfer Arber\nAs one of the Bavarian Forest\u2019s best-known skiers, Eisenstein-born Erhard Gattermann offered a hiker a lift in his car on his way to the Arber in the mid-sixties, he had no idea that he was laying the foundations for one of the most sensational Alpine ski events on the Arber.\nAs they talked during their journey, Erhard Gattermann realised that he had picked up a passionate technical skier, Pavel Bartovsky from Pilsen. This meeting ended in Bartovsky inviting Bayerwald skiers to race at Spicak. The Bayerwald skiers, of course, issued their own invitation and, despite the Iron Curtain separating them at the time, the Pilsen skiers managed to take part in a slalom race on the Gro\u00dfer Arber, and win.\nFinally, further races also managed to motivate racers from Austria, and this little slalom competition became an international event.\nIn the winter of 1968/1969, the Austrians brought none other than the four-time Olympic Champion and World Champion Toni Sailer from Kitzb\u00fchel as their coach. He confirmed what Ernst Schneide, who was the department head for SC Zwiesel at the time, said about the Arber\u2019s organisation and land: that it was suited to \u201chigher\u201d purposes. This path of success led to the FIS B Race, the Europe Cup race and, finally, the first World Cup race on the Arber in 1975/76.\nThe first World Cup race in a low mountain range - and in a country with high mountains, no less - was a worldwide sensation.

(Photo Credit: Michael Strasser) VIEW ORIGINAL\nFORT DRUM, N.Y. (Feb. 9, 2018) -- A new, monthly professional reading group will launch March 5 at Fort Drum to further discussion on military history, national security and the profession of arms among interested community members.\nThe Maj. Gen. Fox Conner Professional Reading Group is a monthly, informal forum for the reading and discussion those topics and more, and was developed by Sepp Scanlin, 10th Mountain Division (LI) Museum director.\nScanlin said that the idea - and also the name - for the reading group is modeled after another one that meets at the Army/Navy Club in Washington, D.C.\n\"I've kind of followed what they have studied there, and I saw this reading group as a way to offer that service here to the division and to the larger community,\" Scanlin said. \"As a museum professional, I have attended different engagements on history and national security. In a couple of those venues the discussion about some sort of way to continue that conversation has come up. So those two things really are the genesis of this.\"\nThe reading requirements for the first meeting is a fairly light load - maybe a couple of hours at most to read three historical documents. One is an excerpt of \"Grey Eminence: Fox Conner and the Art of Mentorship\" by Edward Cox, that was published in the Institute of Land Warfare. The second, \"A Message for Garcia,\" is a magazine article written in 1899 by Elbert Hubbard about the virtues of a young lieutenant who carried out a mission during the Spanish-American War. Lastly, an 18-page general study published in 1946 that documents the introduction of mountain and winter warfare in the U.S. Army.\n\"That one is about getting the people in touch with how the division was born, because that's where we get a lot of questions at the museum,\" Scanlin said. \"People asking about how did we get a mountain division and what was the genesis. Using this almost first-hand account provides a perspective of that question that people today don't often get to see.\"\nScanlin said that he picked these three selections because they were digitally accessible and he thought it would be interesting to this community. He also wanted to offer something intellectually stimulating but nothing weighty in volume.\n\"I really hope the group that shows up takes ownership of this and directs how we move forward,\" Scanlin said. \"So, I didn't want to predispose us to any one category of reading or subject for the first meeting.\"\nScanlin also said that members may suggest alternate meeting places that might draw more participants.\n\"I really want to get a sense of what the participants want to get out of this,\" Scanlin said. \"Do we hold it off post and open it up to other civilians who can't get on post? Do we make this a more social function where the atmosphere may be more social even though the conversations are heavy?\"\nThe group is open to all Soldiers, Family Members and Department of Defense Civilians. The first meeting is scheduled at 5:45 p.m. March 5 at Bldg. 10502, USO Heritage Center classroom.\nThose who would like to attend will receive the readings in digital format via email by contacting Scanlon at joseph.e.scanlin2.civ@mail.mil or (315) 774-0391.\nFebruary 14, 201910th Mountain Division Soldiers impact the CJOA-A through cross-training\nJanuary 17, 2019Mountain Sappers meet MG Milhorn",

        "raw_content": "SS John Burke Areas With Asbestos Exposure\nRaymond Louis Boardman\nWilliam Thomas Johnson\nThe SS John Burke was an American Liberty Ship used during World War II as a cargo ship. The ship was named after John Burke, the 10th Governor of North Dakota. The ship was built at Kaiser Shipbuilding Company in Portland, Oregon and launched in December 1942. Like most other Liberty Ships, the SS John Burke carried war cargo and passengers between the US and the Pacific War areas such as Pearl Harbor, Australia, Guadalcanal, Hollandia, and Manaus. The ship\u2019s last mission was to support the invasion on the island of Mindoro with munitions from Guam. As the 100-ship convoy codenamed (Uncle Plus 13) arrived at Leyte in the Philippines, the Japanese forces were alerted and, taking advantage of the lack of American air support caused by the unfavorable weather, 6 Japanese kamikaze bombers were sent from Cebu Island. Despite the heavy fire sent up by the American Ships, one of the bombers, although damaged, managed to crash directly onto the ship\u2019s cargo bay. This caused the entire ammunition cargo to detonate which disintegrated the ship and damaged several others. All the crew, 68 men, lost their lives and the ship\u2019s remains sank. The event was followed by 2 days of constant air attacks on the convoy, several more ships and hundreds of men having been lost. The convoy reached its destination regardless and successfully resupplied the US Forces for the Mindoro invasion.",

        "raw_content": "The Rejection Myth\nIf you like to make things, whether those things are books, poems, movies, or quilts, you will eventually run up against someone who doesn\u2019t like what you make. That person might decide to tell you they don\u2019t like what you\u2019ve made; they might even decide to tell you why they don\u2019t like what you\u2019ve made. The best response to someone who doesn\u2019t like what you\u2019ve made is to calmly and without any defensiveness whatsoever explain, \u201cYou don\u2019t like it because it wasn\u2019t made for you.\u201d This answer is the absolute truth, but it is easy to see why someone might take it personally. Writers have to contend with rejection all the time, but readers must contend with a kind of rejection as well. Whereas a writer\u2019s rejection comes in the literal form of a letter, a reader\u2019s rejection can occur silently as they come to understand that the book they began reading is like a poorly chosen blind date. The writer, in writing this uninteresting book, has rejected the reader\u2019s aesthetic.\nBut of course the writer hasn\u2019t. The writer has merely directed the arrow of their story toward a target that lies outside the circumference of certain readers\u2019 interest. We all shoot for the broadest target we can, but no target is so broad as to incorporate the entirety of the reading public. It may seem quite obvious that you, a writer, are not rejecting any reader, but it is worth considering. Some readers get very angry when they read books they don\u2019t like. Some writers become very angry when they receive letters telling them an agent or editor did not like what they have written. Are the angry reader and the angry writer really so different?\nIn the end they are not. Rejection as we know it does not exist. It is a mirage of language we have come to believe. No one really ever rejects anyone, but sometimes people go where they don\u2019t belong. It\u2019s an honest mistake, and the honest answer is, \u201cYou don\u2019t belong here.\u201d Sometimes we learn this ourselves and sometimes people tell us, but in the end, the result is the same. We most go and find where we do belong. That is what you are looking for. You are not looking for any agent, for any publisher, you are looking for those agencies and publishing houses where your work belongs. When you find these places, it will not be a question of acceptance and rejection because you will soon see that in many ways you have always been where people are now inviting you to stay.\nWritingBill Kenower June 27, 2010 Rejection, WritingComment\nLife Can Be A Dream\nImagination, WritingBill Kenower June 28, 2010 Dreams, Writing\nStories, WritingBill Kenower June 24, 2010 Home, Lost, Stories, Writing",

However, many are keeping a close eye on the all new Scion FR-S as the frontrunner to win the Hottest Sport Compact award.\nHere\u2019s what some industry experts are saying:\n\u201cIn our booth, we will have a 2013 Scion FR-S, because we know that it will be a huge part of the SEMA Show.\u201d \u2013 John Hotchkis, president at Hotchkis Performance.\n\u201cJudging from what\u2019s going on this year, I expect the Scion FR-S platform will be very popular at this year\u2019s SEMA show.

There will be a small group of these new wave vehicles throughout the show that are truly breakout vehicles that will be must sees.\u201d \u2013 Nate Shelton, chief marketing officer at B&M Automotive Group.\n\u201cThere is no doubt that the Scion FR-S is going to be the dominant and prominent cars at SEMA this year, and I\u2019ll go out on a limb and say the same will happen again at the 2013 SEMA Show.\u201d \u2013 Neil Tjin, president at Tjin Edition.\n\u201c4-door Jeep JK\u2019s will be strong, since the Jeep segment is growing.\u201d \u2013 Greg Adler, CEO of Transamerican Auto Parts.\n\u201cThe Scion FR-S platform has been getting much attention from the automotive aftermarket lately and a vehicle I believe will be seen quite a bit at the 2012 SEMA Show. I also believe that the current generation of Mustangs and Camaros are still a focus for many companies. I feel that their popularity will continue to be strong at this year's show. Of course, hot rods from across the spectrum will continue to be prominent as they are each and every year.\u201d \u2013 RJ de Vera, associate director of public relations and event marketing at Meguiar's Inc.\nThe winners of the SEMA Award will be announced Tuesday, October 30, 2012, at the SEMA Show in Las Vegas, Nevada.

        "raw_content": "What can CELTAS courses in England achieve for prospective teachers?\nTeaching is a worthy undertaking to be sure, for what can be more noble then preparing the minds of tomorrow for their future responsibilities? As English remains one of the major languages of global commerce, it thus comes as no surprise that non-English speaking students are increasingly looking to brush up on their English. CELTA courses in England are subsequently becoming an attractive proposition for those interested in the world of teaching. After all, most Englishmen already teach English. So why not share what they know?\nA CELTA stands for Certificate for English Language Teaching to Adults, however nowadays it\u2019s officially called a Certificate in Teaching English to Speakers of Another Language. CELTA is a relic from the old name. It should be pointed out that a CELTA is not a teaching qualification in itself, rather it\u2019s a certificate that allows for further specialised training into teaching the English language to international students. Due to its international recognition, it\u2019s popular for those who seek to teach English abroad, however many take CELTA courses in England with no intention of leaving the country. It\u2019s good for either.\nYou do not need any prior educational experience or training to undertake a CELTA course, although such qualifications may certainly give an edge. As long as you\u2019re eligible to pursue a teaching career at all, you\u2019re eligible for a CELTA course position.\nTypically a CELTA course lasts around four to six weeks, however it\u2019s possible to take less intensive courses that stretch the period out over several months. That said, even part-time courses can take up more time than a full-time job, especially if the candidate has no background in teaching. The courses themselves are offered by a wide variety of institutions, however they\u2019re centrally managed by the University of Cambridge, and it\u2019s from Cambridge that new certificates are authorised and issued.\nA CELTA course in England is completed upon passing a six hour exam, in which the candidates are required to teach English to two real English foreign language classes and have their teaching abilities assessed. While this forms the main part of the course\u2019s grading, there are also a number of written assignments, which are very much a strict pass/fail affair. Upon completion of the course, successful candidates may then apply for further training under more advanced certificates.\nFor more information about CELTA courses in England, as well as information about other English foreign language classes for European and international students, visit the website of Concorde International.

        "title": "Term Limits, UFOs and Flat Earth - Baltimore Sun",
        "raw_content": "Term Limits, UFOs and Flat Earth\nThe Supreme Court said neither states nor Congress can impose term limits or any other qualifications on members of Congress beyond those specified in the Constitution's qualifications clauses: which require members to be a minimum age, U.S. citizens and inhabitants of their state. Sen. Hank Brown, R-Colo., said he therefore would propose that Congress define an \"inhabitant\" as someone who is \"physically present\" in a state for half the year for 12 years in a row. \"So if you haven't been there you'd no longer qualify as an inhabitant.\"\nThat would effectively limit terms to 12 years, probably (except for Marylanders and others within commuting distance of Capitol Hill), but it's not going to happen, nor should it.\nFor some, the term limits debate has descended from rationality to craziness. Senator Brown's comments are not even the nuttiest reaction to the Supreme Court decision. Pat Buchanan said, \"It is time Congress defied [the] Supreme Court.\" And he said that Republican senators \"like Phil Gramm and Bob Dole, who voted to put liberal statists like Ginsburg and Breyer on the Supreme Court, have a great deal to answer for tonight.\" That's a lot of Republican senators. Republicans voted 33-9 for Stephen Breyer and 41-3 for Ruth Bader Ginsburg -- and 46-0 for Anthony Kennedy, 44-0 for David Souter and 38-0 for John Paul Stevens, the other justices who killed term limits.\nThe term limits movement is in danger of going the way of the anti-fluoridationists, UFO alarmists and Flat Earthers. We know there are many serious people who truly believe over-long congressional careers are harmful to the nation. They should work to empower challenges to incumbents. Make it easier for voters to limit terms on a case-by-case, election-by-election basis. Let selectivity and discrimination work.\nHouse Majority Leader Dick Armey says the issue will lead his party to gains in Congress in 1996 because \"approximately 80 percent of the American people want term limits.\" He is probably referring to a CNN/USA Today poll showing respondents favored term limits by 73 to 24 percent. That poll showed five other proposals on other issues were more popular. In an ABC bTC News/Washington Post poll, term limits tied for sixth when voters were asked to identify \"absolutely critical\" issues. And a .. Greenberg Research poll ranked term limits only the 13th most important issue to respondents.\nRep. Robert Ehrlich, a freshman Republican from conservative Baltimore and Harford counties who opposes term limits, got it exactly right. He said his constituents favor limits but aren't very passionate about the issue. It's only some of the leaders of the movement like Mr. Buchanan who are passionate about it. Too passionate. Passionate to the point of a demagogy that marginalizes them.",

        "title": "Ex-Hopkins doctor guilty in DUI death - Baltimore Sun",
        "raw_content": "Ex-Hopkins doctor guilty in DUI death\nA former Johns Hopkins Hospital doctor pleaded guilty yesterday in Baltimore Circuit Court to automobile manslaughter and driving under the influence of alcohol for driving the wrong way on Interstate 83 in July and killing a 22-year-old woman.\nUnder the terms of his deal with prosecutors, Dr. Todd Brinsley Sheridan of the 2900 block of Fallstaff Road in Northwest Baltimore is scheduled to be sentenced in April to a maximum of 10 years in prison, with all but three years suspended. He had previously served 18 months' probation after another drunken-driving conviction in 2004.\nThe victim's mother, Glenda Johnson Goodwin, objected to the deal, saying Sheridan \"deserves every bit of 10 years.\" She added: \"He should never be allowed to practice medicine again because this is not his first offense. He had just gotten off probation in another DUI case.\"\nBut Sheridan's attorney, Craig Kadish, argued that his client no longer works at Hopkins and is volunteering at soup kitchens and other hospitals. Kadish said that his client has completed alcohol treatment at a facility in Pennsylvania and is attending Alcoholics Anonymous meetings.\nThe doctor had been at Hopkins since 2002, when he became a resident. He previously was listed on the hospital's Web site as an assistant in the medical school's department of pathology. Kadish said that the community, given his clients' skills, would be better served if Sheridan spent less than three years in prison.\n\"Very few do what he does,\" the attorney said.\nSheridan, 32, was returning from a Hopkins event in Fells Point about 3 a.m. on July 8 when he drove up the wrong ramp at the North Avenue exit to the Jones Falls Expressway in a 2005 Honda Civic. He drove north for about 4 1/2 miles in the southbound lanes at about 50 mph before crashing into a 1992 Honda Accord driven by Letrice Nicole Smith of Gwynn Oak.\nAs Sheridan drove erratically, other drivers tried to stop him by blowing their horns and flashing their lights, witness Danielle Johnson told police.\n\"He wasn't speeding, but he was going the wrong way,\" Johnson said, according to the accident report. \"I was hitting my horn to get his attention. He was hitting the barriers several times. The cars that were southbound were flashing their lights and hitting their horns.\"\nSheridan had a blood alcohol level of 0.18 percent, more than twice the legal limit of 0.08 percent, about four hours after the crash, said Assistant State's Attorney Lisa Phelps.\nAfter the accident, Smith was taken to Sinai Hospital, and later underwent surgery at Union Memorial Hospital. Two weeks later, Smith died of a blood clot that prosecutors said was a direct result of the injuries she suffered in the accident.\n\"She cried out but had no time to react,\" Phelps said, relying on information police and prosecutors obtained from Johnson. \"This is supported by the fact that there were no pre-impact skid marks.\"",

        "title": "Large number of city teachers receive unsatisfactory evaluations - Baltimore Sun",
        "raw_content": "Large number of city teachers receive unsatisfactory evaluations\nA significant number of Baltimore teachers \u2014 in some schools as many as 60 percent of the staff \u2014 have received unsatisfactory ratings on their midyear evaluations as the system moves to implement a pay-for-performance contract that's considered a bellwether for a national movement.\nTeachers contend that the high number of \"performance improvement plans,\" which can be a precursor for dismissal, is an attempt to avoid paying raises. But city school officials say that putting teachers on such plans is part of broader efforts to help them become more effective in the classroom.\nBaltimore is one of a handful of districts at the forefront of a national debate on how to root out the worst teachers and reward the most effective. The city has joined a growing number of districts looking to implement new evaluation systems that link teacher ratings and pay to students' academic progress.\n\"Nationally, it is indisputably true that the teacher evaluation system is broken, that teachers have not gotten meaningful feedback, or the respect to be given clear standards and expectations,\" said Dan Weisberg, vice president of policy at the New Teacher Project, a national nonprofit that trains teachers.\nBaltimore's school system declined to say how many teachers have been placed on PIPs because of unsatisfactory evaluations. But school and union officials confirmed that in some schools around the city, more than 60 percent of teachers received one.\nTisha Edwards, chief of staff for the school system, said the recent spate of PIPs doesn't mean that more than half of the teachers in certain schools would be fired. However, she said, given the low student test scores around the city, some teachers should expect their jobs to be in jeopardy.\n\"We do have schools where that should be a reality,\" Edwards said.\nIn 2013, every teacher in Maryland will be evaluated based on student performance, as state education leaders continue to hammer out on a new evaluation system that will base 50 percent of teacher evaluations on student achievement. Baltimore was the first locality in the state to include pay for performance in a contract.\nPIPs have traditionally represented an agreement between a teacher and a principal on areas of improvement. If a teacher fails to meet the goals, the district can begin taking steps toward dismissal. Edwards said the evaluation process in the past has lacked consistency, feedback and a paper trail of efforts to help teachers improve.\n\"We have more people on PIPs, and we're proud of it,\" she added. \"We're not saying we're going to fire everybody, but we're using PIPs the way they were supposed to be used, but never were: to communicate where we need to develop, and get better about documenting the development of our people.\"\nBut the new approach has spurred backlash from city teachers who feel vulnerable under a contract that, now in its second year, has yet to be fully fleshed out. Union and district officials are still hammering out the most critical piece of the pact: how teachers will be evaluated.\nEducators for Democratic Schools, a group of 85 who opposed the contract, believes the district's strategy of giving a large number of teachers an unsatisfactory evaluation midway through the year is intended to make it harder for them to be rated proficient at the end of the year.\nTeachers who are rated proficient receive an automatic pay raise under the Baltimore Teachers Union contract, ratified in October 2010.\n\"We thought it would be great if we all made 80 grand, and we think there are lots of teachers who should, but we never believed there was enough money to support that,\" said Iris Kirsch, spokeswoman for the group.\nKirsch, in her sixth year as an English teacher, was placed on a PIP along with several teachers at Heritage High School.\n\"We always said this contract is going to make the evaluation process into a much bigger deal, where personal attacks can turn into pay cuts and threaten people's job security, and that seems to be exactly what is happening,\" she said.\nBut Edwards dismissed claims that the new strategy is a cost-saving measure. District officials have maintained that the city can afford the contract, estimated to cost $50 million over three years, though they have never detailed where the money would come from. In other districts, like Washington, D.C., private funds had to be solicited to afford a similar merit-pay pact.\nEdwards said the new PIP strategy reflects that \"things matter today that didn't matter yesterday.\"\nNational experts say that the mere increase of PIPs in a school district undergoing such reforms shouldn't raise red flags because they can provide critical information to teachers.\n\"PIP before used to mean you're in big trouble, and now it may be 'here are some weaknesses and how you can get better,'\" said Emily Cohen, policy analyst for the National Council on Teacher Quality, a nonpartisan group that supported the contract. \"I think it shows a real effort on the part of the district to make evaluations better and help people do better.\"\nCohen said that for the district's strategy to be effective, it must change the culture and thinking behind what is often considered a means to termination.\n\"This effort all falls on how well the district is able to communicate with teachers,\" she said.\nOther experts said city educators are right to worry, given the national discourse about holding teachers accountable for public education failures.\n\"I think that what's happening in Baltimore is symptomatic of a national rush to judgment,\" said Diane Ravitch, research professor of education at New York University and historian of education.\nRavitch, who denounces using student test scores to rate teachers as \"insane social policy,\" said that soon teachers across the nation will be shuffled around as districts look to evaluate them out of the classroom.\n\"By design, someone in the system has decided that there are a certain number of teachers who should be on their way out the door,\" Ravitch added. \"This is huge. You have a school system that has designed a method to demoralize virtually every teacher in the school system.\"\nAt the beginning of the school year, city schools CEO Andr\u00e9s Alonso told principals that they need to be more stringent in evaluations. He said it was impractical that during the 2010-2011 school year, 108 of the city's roughly 200 schools had no teachers rated unsatisfactory.\nOf the city's 6,900 teachers, about 4,400 \u2014 or 63 percent of the teaching force \u2014 received proficient evaluations at the end of last school year, and about 2,200 teachers were rated satisfactory. About 200 teachers received an unsatisfactory rating at the end of the year.\nMichelle Rhee, the former chancellor of Washington, D.C., public schools who founded StudentsFirst, an organization that has lobbied for radically reforming public education, said the disconnect between student achievement and teacher evaluations is prevalent throughout the nation.\n\"We have a system in this country where the vast majority of teachers were being rated as effective, and the student achievement levels on assessments were not reflecting that,\" Rhee said.\nShe gave the example of Washington, where at the beginning of her tenure, eighth-graders were posting 8 percent proficiency levels but nearly 98 percent of teachers were rated effective.\nRhee said that not only is it \"extraordinarily difficult\" to fire poor teachers, but schools could use a radical turnover to replace weak teachers.\n\"That is the kind of movement that we would want to see in a system, that is not only completely acceptable, but that we should as parents, as a country, want to see,\" Rhee said.\n'Not fair'\nThe Baltimore Teachers Union said in a statement that it was still investigating how large the increase in improvement plans is. The union also said that the district's approach \"is not a good way to develop school leaders and not fair to teachers.\"\nThe union can grieve the process of a PIP. But that doesn't apply if a principal can document providing support to a teacher, and the teacher hasn't improved.\nSchool officials said that before this year, that process was never documented, and that moving forward, PIPs will represent a contractual agreement between teachers and principals.\nLast month, teachers across the city received an email informing them that their appraisals were ready.\nSome teachers told The Baltimore Sun they received the first unsatisfactory ratings of their tenures, some spanning decades, resulting in a PIP. Others said that while they aren't on PIPs, they were downgraded from proficient to satisfactory for the first time in many categories, and fear it will be harder to receive an overall proficient rating for the school year.\nIn the past, teachers said, the midyear evaluation involved an intense conversation in which they were given an opportunity to present evidence to challenge their evaluations. This year, it involved clicking a button in a new online system to accept whatever ratings they received.\nOne English teacher who has taught in the city for more than a decade said she was given an unsatisfactory evaluation for the first time and was placed on a PIP.\n\"When it comes to the end of the year, they can try and not renew me because of this,\" said the teacher, who spoke to The Sun on condition of anonymity because she fears retribution. \"I try to just put it aside because I still have to go in there every day and serve the kids the best that I can.\"\nThe focus on teacher quality has also caught the attention of parents.\nMelanie Hood-Wilson, the teaching and learning representative on the Parent Community Advisory Board, said the board believes that \"there needs to be a mechanism for getting substandard teachers to leave the classroom, but we also want to make sure the supports are there to keep the good teachers and help the good teachers improve.\"\nKirsch, the Educators for Democratic Schools spokeswoman, said the group is rallying educators around the city to protest the district's new approach to PIPs. At one high school, she said, teachers who have been put on PIPs have sent uniform responses to their principals that say \"this is illegitimate and untrue.\"\n\"The next step is to get these wiped off and actually have some conversations,\" she said. \"We want people to stand together and say that this is not the Baltimore that we're going to teach in.\"\nBaltimore Teachers Union",

        "raw_content": "Five brain-boosting reasons to take up martial arts \u2013 at any age\nThis article by Ashleigh Johnstone, PhD researcher in Cognitive Neuroscience at the School of Psychology was originally published on The Conversation. Read the original article.\nWe are all aware that exercise generally has many benefits, such as improving physical fitness and strength. But what do we know about the effects of specific types of exercise? Researchers have already shown that jogging can increase life expectancy, for example, while yoga makes us happy. However, there is one activity that goes beyond enhancing physical and mental health \u2013 martial arts can boost your brain\u2019s cognition too.\n1. Improved attention\nResearchers say that there are two ways to improve attention, through attention training (AT), and attention state training (AST). AT is based on practising a specific skill and getting better at that skill, but not others \u2013 using a brain training video game, for example. AST on the other hand is about getting into a specific state of mind that allows a stronger focus. This can be done by using exercise, meditation, or yoga, among other things.\nIt has been suggested that martial arts is a form of AST, and supporting this, recent researchhas shown a link between practice and improved alertness. Backing this idea up further, another study showed that martial arts practice \u2013 specifically karate \u2013 is linked with better performance on a divided attention task. This is an assignment in which the person has to keep two rules in mind and respond to signals based on whether they are auditory or visual.\n2. Reduced aggression\nIn a US study, children aged 8-11 were tasked with traditional martial arts training that focused on respecting other people and defending themselves as part of an anti-bullying programme. The children were also taught how to maintain a level of self-control in heated situations.\nThe researchers found that the martial arts training reduced the level of aggressive behaviour in boys, and found that they were more likely to step in and help someone who was being bullied than before they took part in the training. Significant changes were not found in the girls\u2019 behaviour, potentially because they showed much lower levels of physical aggression before the training than the boys did.\nInterestingly, this anti-agression effect is not limited to young children. A different piece of research found reduced physical and verbal aggression, as well as hostility, in adolescents who practised martial arts too.\n3. Greater stress management\nSome forms of martial arts, such as tai chi, place great emphasis on controlled breathing and meditation. These were strongly linked in one study with reduced feelings of stress, as well as being better able to manage stress when it is present in young to middle-aged adults.\nThis effect has also been found in older adults \u2013 the 330 participants in this research had a mean age of 73 \u2013 too. And the softer, flowing movements make it an ideal, low-impact exercise for older people.\n4. Enhanced emotional well-being\nAs several scientists are now looking into the links between emotional well-being and physical health, it\u2019s vital to note that martial arts has been show to improve a person\u2019s emotional well-being too.\nIn the study linked above, 45 older adults (aged 67-93) were asked to take part in karate training, cognitive training, or non-martial arts physical training for three to six months. The older adults in the karate training showed lower levels of depression after the training period than both other groups, perhaps due to its meditative aspect. It was also reported that these adults showed a greater level of self-esteem after the training too.\nAfter comparing a sedentary control group to a group of people doing karate, Italian researchers found that taking part in karate can improve a person\u2019s working memory. They used a test that involved recalling and repeating a series of numbers, both in the correct order and backwards, which increased in difficulty until the participant was unable to continue. The karate group were much better at this task than the control group, meaning they could recall longer series of numbers. Another project found similar results while comparing tai chi practice with \u201cWestern exercise\u201d \u2013 strength, endurance, and resistance training.\nEvidently, there is far more to martial arts than its traditional roles. Though they have been practised for self-defence and spiritual development for many hundreds of years, only relatively recently have researchers had the methods to assess the true extent of how this practice affects the brain.\nThere are a such a huge range of martial arts, some more gentle and meditative, others combative and physically intensive. But this only means that there is a type for everyone, so why not give it a go and see how you can boost your own brain using the ancient practices of martial arts.",

        "raw_content": "Brazil Investors Take a Long View\nIt has been an eventful year in Brazil, though perhaps not in the way investors would have liked. The country's growth has stalled to an expected 1.5% this year -- a figure not exactly befitting an emerging market, especially one that not so long ago had been growing at four times that rate.\nThat helped send the Brazilian real down 8% against the dollar this year, making it the year's second-worst currency performer. The MSCI Brazil stock market index is down 5% in dollar terms. Other battered economies, like India and China, have seen double-digit stock-market gains over the same period.\nBrazil's central bank countered by slashing interest rates 5.25 percentage points in 15 months, to a record low of 7.25%. The government has also done its part, with stimulus aimed at reducing the cost of doing business by investing in much-needed infrastructure and by reducing taxes, including some on electricity that had accounted for almost half the average electric bill. But the government has also forced oil giant Petrobras, in which it has a 54% stake, to lower the gas prices it charges, and is pushing electric utilities whose contracts are up for renewal to lower the rates they charge. More recently, state-owned banks have been cutting fees and the rates they charge customers -- indirectly pushing private banks to follow suit. These steps may be good news for inflation, which ranked as one of the bigger threats facing Brazil last year. Now, however, investors are worried about increased government intervention and the impact that may have on the profits of the companies they own.\nOUR PANELISTS (from left to right) Mark Jason, co-manager of the Invesco Developing Markets fund; Nick Robinson, head of Brazilian equities for Aberdeen and senior investment manager on Aberdeen's Emerging Markets fund; David Robbins, co-manager of TCW Emerging Markets Income fund; Will Landers, head of BlackRock's Latin American active equity exposure and manager of its Latin America fund. Matthew Furman for Barron's\nThat said, some money managers are turning optimistic, encouraged by recent economic data that suggest a recovery is taking hold\u2014perhaps not to the 6% or 7% growth of the recent past, but a \"new normal\" of 3% to 4%. But unlike in 2010, when a robust economy fostered a stock market that seemed to do nothing but rise, success going forward will depend on more selectively picking individual stocks and bonds.\nFor help in navigating the latest developments -- and what the year ahead may offer -- we sat down with four fund managers with hefty Brazilian exposure and long experience investing in the world's sixth-largest economy.\nMark Jason is co-manager of the $3 billion Invesco Developing Markets fund (ticker: GTDDX) and has covered Brazil for 11 years. Jason doesn't care much about staying close to the benchmark, and his fund has 15% of its assets in Brazil, slightly more than the benchmark, making the country its biggest weighting. The reason: the large number of high-quality companies.\nNick Robinson heads Brazilian equities for Aberdeen and is a senior investment manager on the $8 billion Aberdeen Emerging Markets fund (GEGAX), which has almost 17% of assets in Brazil. Robinson is the only one of our participants who lives in S\u00e3o Paolo, giving him a first-hand view of the country's recent changes. He has been tactically adding to some of the cyclical companies that have suffered recently, but admits that government intervention may make investing more challenging.\nDavid Robbins, co-manager of the $5.5 billion TCW Emerging Markets Income fund (TGEIX), invests in local and dollar-denominated sovereign and corporate debt. The fund has 14% of its assets in Brazil, its second-largest country weighting. With the run in dollar-denominated sovereign debt, Robbins is more interested recently in sovereign bonds denominated in Brazil's local currency, and corporate bonds.\nBrazilian-born Will Landers manages the $568 million BlackRock Latin America fund (MDLTX) and oversees the firm's Latin American active equity investments. The calls-it-as-he-sees-it manager holds the market's biggest names, but favors mid-sized businesses that will benefit from increasing domestic demand.\nBarron's: There's been no shortage of economic or market developments in the past year. What's been the most notable?\nDavid Robbins: From a fixed-income perspective, the most interesting thing is how aggressive Brazil has been in reducing rates. When you reduce short-term rates by 5.25 percentage points, it takes a while to kick in. But you're going to get an impact by boosting economic growth.\nNick Robinson: The increasing willingness of the government to be more involved in the companies that are listed. The government has been tougher with Petroleo Brasileiro (PBR), better known as Petrobras, in terms of limiting the price at which it can sell gasoline to distributors. More recently, the government stepped into the banking sector, trying to lower fees and reduce the spreads between what they borrow and lend at. It has also stepped into the utility sector, trying to reduce the price of energy. It is quite tough to invest in that type of environment, in sectors the government can touch.\nWill Landers: Most of the large-cap stocks in Brazil are under pressure right now. That's why you have global investors saying, \"Well, this market isn't going anywhere and hasn't for two years.\" It may not go anywhere for a while. Brazil is not a China story, but Vale (VALE), the world's largest iron-ore miner, is. Petrobras, banks, utilities, telecoms, and retailers that depend on credit all have their issues with weak global demand or government intervention.\nIn other words, the stock market faces challenges since its biggest components are under pressure, but you're still optimistic.\nLanders: If you want to be negative, you can be negative. If you want to be positive, the government is moving to reduce the cost of doing business.\nMatthew Furman for Barron's\nDavid Robbins' Picks\nInflation-linked, local-currency Brazilian bonds\nCoupon: 6% Maturity: 8/15/2018 Yield: 3.01% above the Brazilian CPI Index so total 8.5%\nInvestment-grade bonds:\nBanco Bradesco: 10-year bonds\nCoupon: 5.75% Maturity: 3/1/2022 Yield: 4.55%\nIt\u00faa Unibanco : 10-year bonds\nCoupon: 5.65% Maturity: 3/19/2022 Yield: 4.65%\nInfrastructure firm Odebrecht: 40-year bonds\nCoupon: 7.125% Maturity: 6/26/2042 Yield: 6 %\nHigh-yield Corporate:\nSugar and ethanol producer Virgolino de Oliveira\nCoupon: 10.5% Maturity: 1/28/2018 Yield: 11%\nSource: TCW\nAll of you own Petrobras, the government-controlled oil giant. Given the risk of the government limiting its profitability, why own it?\nRobinson: Clearly, that company is having a tougher time of it of late. But we think there is a chance that at some stage there will be some independent representation on the board, and perhaps that would be a step in the right direction toward getting minority shareholders treated a bit more fairly.\nLanders: Petrobras is 10% of the MSCI Brazil index, so we will most likely always own some. But it is the biggest underweight in our portfolio. Over the past two years, that stock has been a huge underperformer. It has had a major impact on the performance of the market, and the perception investors have about Brazil overall, because the biggest stock in the country isn't necessarily treating all investors the same.\nRobbins: It is one of the largest issuers in the investment-grade bond market, with debt outstanding equivalent to something like Comcast's. It is similarly rated and comes with a 1.2 percentage point higher yield. It is an issue that investment-grade investors have in their portfolios more and more frequently. Petrobras is going to pay its debts over the longer term; it has got a lot of asset value.\nIs political intervention less of an issue for bond investors?\nRobbins: It's an issue. The question is: How is Petrobras going to invest its money?\nLanders: In the short term, it is not exactly good for shareholders, because their return on invested capital continues to be much lower than it has been in the past. It could be a great company in 2020 from an equity perspective when they are producing four million barrels a day -- if they get there. It's producing about half that right now. To get there, they are going to have to spend $40 billion a year, which is hard for any company to do right -- let alone a government-owned company.\nSome of this intervention is aimed at reviving the economy. Is it working?\nMark Jason: We are seeing steps in the right direction. Brazil really lacks infrastructure, and the stimulus efforts on that end should improve efficiencies. Over the long term, all these factors should benefit Brazil.\nRobinson: It is a fine line the government needs to tread. On one hand, it is trying to reduce the cost of doing business by cutting taxes and improving infrastructure. But by continuing to interfere in the companies, they are potentially threatening the health of the capital markets. With Petrobras, it feels like they have gone too far. With the banks, it is becoming more of a problem.\nThere is some concern that Brazil's days of strong growth are behind it. Is sub-2% growth the \"new normal?\"\nRobbins: Growth in the first half was a lot slower than anyone thought it was going to be, and that's why they had to reduce rates dramatically. Now that you are at the bottom of the interest-rate cycle, you should probably get pretty decent growth going forward. We expect 4% next year. Brazil, and Latin America in general, is the only part of the world that has a V-shaped recovery when you look at 2013.\nJason: There's a dichotomy in the market right now. We have groups like banks and utilities under government pressure, and commodity companies under pressure because of slowing global demand. But then you have other companies that are still seeing growth and trading at much higher valuations.\nMark Jason's Picks\nCompany Ticker Price\nDASA DASA3.Brazil 13.64 real\nBanco Bradesco BBDC4.Brazil 33.18\nDuratex DTEX3.Brazil 14.39\nValid Solucoes VLID3.Brazil 38.39\nIt seems like consumer stocks could fit that description. But how is the consumer story different in a slower-growing Brazil?\nJason: We are at a transition point in the domestic-demand story. Interest rates are being lowered and longer-maturity-debt instruments like mortgages are becoming more common. The consumer should see some sort of relief. But we are at a point where that needs to happen right now because of the pressure on consumers and growth.\nRobbins: It is happening. What consumers really care about is their monthly payment. So that monthly payment is starting to go down. Consumer debt had been rising, but pressure on the consumer is coming down as rates fall.\nRobinson: It's probably fair to say, though, that we are not going to have the powerful consumer demand over the next five years that we had over the past five, because household debt has increased markedly in the past four years. Maybe consumer demand just continues, but it is potentially a little bit weaker.\nIs the market pricing that in?\nLanders: Consumer demand isn't going to be 25% to 30% growth, but it's still healthy growth. If you look at the growth of the middle class over the past five to 10 years, about 40 million people have become consumers. Over the next five years, it'll be more like 25 million, but that's 12.5% of today's population. The debt burden went up just as rates did, so as rates come down, it'll come down with it.\nSo consumers will have more money in their pockets?\nRobbins: Yes, plus the government's measures, like cutting the utility rates and other taxes, are helping the consumer.\nLanders: On top of that, unemployment remains at a record-low level. Wages are going up, and banking unions are negotiating somewhere between 7% and 8% salary increases.\nWhat are ways to invest in the consumer?\nLanders: We still like some of the mid-cap stocks like Lojas Renner (LREN3.Brazil), which is the country's largest department-store operator -- kind of like a Macy's -- or Companhia Hering (HGTX3.Brazil).\nWhat is Hering?\nLanders: Hering is kind of like the Gap (GPS). It has a combination of owned stores and franchises, and is looking to extend the brand into areas like kids. If you look at the performance of the malls, these types of smaller stores are the ones that have been doing better. Valuations have come down in some of them because of the concerns around consumers' debt levels rising and worries about consumption if there is less credit available. But these concerns decline as interest rates fall. We are taking more of a medium- to long-term outlook and look to take advantage of some of these dips.\nWhat other stocks will do well as consumer spending resumes?\nJason: We are buying a derivative that feeds into housing demand. Duratex (DTEX3.Brazil) has a leading market share in wood-board and metal fittings used in toilets and faucets. They are seeing stronger earnings growth, but are also increasing their supply in the second half of next year. That should lead to further increases in earnings going forward. It trades at 17 times 2013 earnings, but it drops to 14 times 2014.\nRobinson: We've got Renner and Hering as well, which we like. I would add Arezzo (ARZZ3.Brazil), which designs women's shoes.\nWhat are some nonretailing ways to play consumer demand?\nLanders: It isn't the cheapest stock in the world, but Natura Cosmeticos (NATU3.Brazil) is like the Avon of Brazil and has been gaining share. You also have a company like Localiza Rent-A-Car (RENT3.Brazil) on the car-rental side that has been doing well despite the impact from the government lowering taxes on new car purchases.\nWill Lander's Picks\nLojas Renner LREN3.Brazil 77.00 real\nCia. Hering HGTX3.Brazil 48.40\nLocaliza Rent -A-Car RENT3.Brazil 36.50\nNatura Cosmeticos NATU3.Brazil 55.00\nJason: We still like DASA (DASA3.Brazil), which is the largest medical-diagnostics company but only has 14% market share. It is a secular growth story. More prevention, more private insurance, an aging population, and increasing wages -- all these trends are good for DASA. We anticipate 12%-to-15% revenue growth for the sector, maybe through 2014. DASA is in the midst of a restructuring right now. With a new management, we feel they are going to turn this business around and improve profitability and efficiency. Not everybody believes that story.\nRobinson: We like the shopping-mall companies like Multiplan (MULT3.Brazil) and Iguatemi (IGTA3.Brazil). They are just great companies. Once you've got the Multiplan malls in the right location and constructed, it's quite hard to make a mess of those businesses. Iguatemi has some very attractive high-end malls in S\u00e3o Paulo.\nWhat about the bond side?\nRobbins: The best way to play the consumer is really through the banks. Margins are being squeezed, but they still trade at very attractive levels relative to sovereign debt. On the dollar-denominated side, we avoid the sovereign debt. It trades at 90 basis points [0.9 percentage point] over U.S. Treasuries. I don't think there's much upside. You can buy quality banks -- the largest, like Banco Bradesco (BBD) and Ita\u00fa Unibanco Holding (ITUB) -- in the 10-year market somewhere around 200 basis points over the comparable sovereign bond. That's pretty attractive.\nThe Brazilian real is second only to the Argentine peso in declines this year. What happens from here?\nRobbins: The central bank wants to keep the currency in a range between 2 and 2.05 to the dollar. I think it will be successful. As you see growth pick up, there will be more pressure for it to appreciate. For the near-term, I see it staying stable. I think local currency debt is very attractive, with 9.5% yields with the currency stable or going to appreciate. You can't find those yields anywhere in investment grade.\nMany of you own the bank stocks. Given the potential risk with government intervention, how does it affect your view?\nJason: The long-term story for banking seems brighter because of this growth in the middle class. Brazil has 74 million people who don't have a bank account. Bradesco, Brazil's second-largest private-sector bank, gets 25% to 30% of its net income from insurance and pensions and almost another 25% from fees, so we have about 50% of the business that's fairly resilient. We may be under pressure right now in terms of margins and fees, but over the long term we think the future is still looking very strong.\nLanders: These are well-capitalized banks. Reserve requirements are among the highest in the world. Bradesco and Ita\u00fa, Latin America's largest bank, aren't going to do anything crazy. If they have to give up share, they will. But they are learning how to be banks in a lower-interest-rate world, rather than just loan money to the government at double-digits and be done with it. They are adjusting.\nBrazil's stock market yields 3% to 4%. What is the outlook for dividends?\nRobinson: There is a rule in Brazil that companies need to pay out about 25% of net income as dividends, so naturally investors get a quite a good dividend.\nLanders: Unless the government comes in and knocks out your net income, like they did with utilities.\nJason: There is a risk that dividends will come down.\nRobinson: Vale has been paying huge dividends over the past few years. The special dividends aren't likely to be coming as quickly as they were.\nIs there still opportunity in smaller companies, or are the valuations too high, making a case for large-caps?\nLanders: It's hard to really shift to the large-caps. We put some money back into the banks, and we are getting burned a little bit -- or a lot -- with this round of government interference. The risk of Petrobras is that they wake up tomorrow and raise gasoline and diesel prices. You want to be underweight large companies, but by how much? You have to be careful with that. With Vale, the new government is looking to make the company more efficient, but it's not going to be an overnight fix. In the meantime, its cash flow is going to go down.\nAre mid-size companies less burdened?\nLanders: The mid-caps are still more interesting because it's cleaner in terms of consumer-growth story. You are going to have to pay a little bit more, but there are plenty of stocks that still offer pretty good upside.\nJason: About 60% of the market is made up of these sectors that are cheap for a reason. The small-caps tend to be the ones that are overlooked more because they are just not accessible to a lot of investors, and they tend to have lower valuation.\nRobinson: Over the long term, the domestic-demand sectors will very much be the place to be. But over the short term, there is perhaps a tactical opportunity emerging in some of these larger-cap commodity companies like Petrobras and Vale and also the banks. They are very cheap.\nWe've just been kind of nudging things a little bit recently, adding a little bit more cyclicality.\nOne piece of good news is that inflation has fallen a bit this year. But aren't risks rising again with food inflation and stimulus?\nLanders: No central bank has control over food inflation. If it doesn't rain, if you don't get corn, if you don't get soybeans, prices will go up. It's a short-term phenomenon.\nLanders: Reserve requirements remain very high. I think they are committed to keeping rates at a single digit -- if they can, maybe forever.\nJason: We are at 5.2% inflation -- that is at an elevated level. The issue is that you have very little unemployment. There's not a lot of room to maneuver. Hopefully, they will be able to, but it is touchy ground at this point.\nRobbins: Inflation probably becomes a bigger issue in 2013. They are cutting taxes, and that's going to help short-term. But when you have a tight labor market, potential food inflation, and some of the wage agreements, there is going to be inflationary pressure.\nDoes that mean you are increasing your exposure to inflation-linked bonds, David?\nRobbins: We have a fair amount of exposure. We are probably a little bit early, but we think the risks are that potentially inflation resurfaces, particularly along with our view that we are going to see much stronger growth in 2013.\nThe 2016 Olympics and 2014 World Cup are often noted as drivers for the market, but no one has mentioned either so far. Why?\nLanders: Petrobras' annual capital expenditure is more than the World Cup is going to cost. Brazil is a big country. And it's a theme you can't invest in through equities really, because the big construction and engineering companies are all privately held.\nRobbins: You can buy them on the debt side. Odebrecht is one of our top picks in the corporate space. It's an investment-grade company that benefits from the long-term infrastructure investment. We also like Braskem, a chemicals firm owned by Petrobras. In general, we are avoiding dollar-based sovereign debt. We don't think there is much upside. Ten-year corporates make a lot of sense.\nNick Robinson's Picks\nWilson Sons WSON11.Brazil 28.99 real\nMultiplan MULT3.Brazil 59.73\nIguatemi IGTA3.Brazil 26.29\nArezzo ARZZ3.Brazil 37.10\nAny infrastructure stock plays?\nRobinson: We have Wilson Sons (WSON11. Brazil), which is a company that operates a couple of ports based in Brazil and also has a ship builder. So they are a big supplier for Petrobras, and they tow Petrobras' rigs. They stand to benefit from Petrobras' huge capex spend.\nDavid, you mentioned infrastructure bonds.\nRobbins: Over the next five years [Brazil] has something like $125 billion in terms of infrastructure plans. They are creating a new security in the local-currency market called infrastructure bonds. Right now, the only way you can participate in local currency is through a fund that already has exposure, because otherwise you have to pay a 6% tax. You wouldn't have to pay that tax, so these bonds can be pretty compelling if you can believe in the project.\nWhat's the biggest risk for your investments beyond political intervention?\nRobbins: The biggest risk for Brazil is really global. You've got to think about what's going on in Europe and potentially what's going on in China. Those will have the biggest impact on risk perception, and that's what will impact Brazil.\nThere seems to be no small amount of risks looming, yet you seem relatively upbeat. Why?\nJason: We are already seeing positive signs, like business confidence improving and retail sales improving.\nLanders: If rates are going to stay in the 7%-to-8% range, then pension funds that are very underweight equities are going have to invest into the equity market. It's going to make a big difference. Because they know the market, they will be more likely to go into small- and mid-cap stocks as well.\nRobbins: Plus, fundamentals are strong from a balance-sheet perspective. And in this world, 3.5% to 4% economic growth is a high-class problem.\nIt has been an eventful year in Brazil, though perhaps not in the way investors would have liked.",

Courtesy of the artist.\nPaul Stephen Benjamin\u2019s conceptual practice employs video, sculpture, painting and installation to surface issues of race, identity within American history. Through his multi-layered works, in which he investigates the \u201ccolor black\u201d or \u201cthe sound of black,\u201d he supports introspection and interrogation as an entry point to explore the complexities, politics, poetics, and subjectivities of racial identity \u2013 whether stereotyped, projected, or self-identified. Benjamin\u2019s multilayered and large-scale sculptures and video installations, incorporate history, text, and popular culture, suggesting that a cohesive message about identity is all but impossible but still worthy of exploration. Benjamin often takes as his source material from national media as a language by which to question its dominance in creating shared values, memories and stances.\nBenjamin received his BA from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and his MFA from Georgia State University.

More commonly a nickname, it is occasionally used as a given name.\nAL m English\nShort form of ALBERT and other names beginning with Al. A notable bearer is American actor Al Pacino (1940-).\nALAIN m French\nFrench form of ALAN.\nALDEN m English\nFrom a surname which was derived from the Old English given name EALDWINE.\nALEXIS m & f German, French, English, Greek, Ancient Greek\nFrom the Greek name \u0391\u03bb\u03b5\u03be\u03b9\u03c2 (Alexis), which meant \"helper\" or \"defender\", derived from Greek \u03b1\u03bb\u03b5\u03be\u03c9 (alexo) \"to defend, to help\". This was the name of a 3rd-century BC Greek comic poet, and also of several saints. It is used somewhat interchangeably with the related name \u0391\u03bb\u03b5\u03be\u03b9\u03bf\u03c2 or Alexius, borne by five Byzantine emperors. In the English-speaking world it is more commonly used as a feminine name.\nALFIE m English\nDiminutive of ALFRED.\nALICE f English, French, Portuguese, Italian, Czech\nFrom the Old French name Aalis, a short form of Adelais, itself a short form of the Germanic name Adalheidis (see ADELAIDE). This name became popular in France and England in the 12th century. It was borne by the heroine of Lewis Carroll's 'Alice's Adventures in Wonderland' (1865) and 'Through the Looking Glass' (1871).\nALVA (2) m English\nVariant of ALVAH. A famous bearer of this name was the inventor Thomas Alva Edison (1847-1931).\nALVIN m English\nFrom a medieval form of any of the Old English names \u00c6LFWINE, \u00c6\u00d0ELWINE or EALDWINE. It was revived in the 19th century, in part from a surname which was derived from the Old English names.\nAMANDA f English, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Dutch, Swedish, Norwegian, Danish, German, Late Roman\nIn part this is a feminine form of AMANDUS. However, it was not used during the Middle Ages. In the 17th century it was recreated by authors and poets who based it directly on Latin amanda meaning \"lovable, worthy of love\". Notably, the playwright Colley Cibber used it for a character in his play 'Love's Last Shift' (1696). It came into regular use during the 19th century.\nAMBROSE m English\nFrom the Late Latin name Ambrosius, which was derived from the Greek name \u0391\u03bc\u03b2\u03c1\u03bf\u03c3\u03b9\u03bf\u03c2 (Ambrosios) meaning \"immortal\". Saint Ambrose was a 4th-century theologian and bishop of Milan, who is considered a Doctor of the Church. Due to the saint, the name came into general use in Christian Europe, though it was never particularly common in England.\nANDERS m Swedish, Norwegian, Danish\nScandinavian form of Andreas (see ANDREW). A famous bearer was the Swedish physicist Anders Jonas \u00c5ngstr\u00f6m (1814-1874).\nANDREA (2) f English, German, Spanish, Czech, Slovak, Hungarian, Swedish, Norwegian, Danish, Icelandic, Dutch, Croatian, Serbian\nFeminine form of ANDREW. As an English name, it has been used since the 17th century, though it was not common until the 20th century.\nANDREW m English, Biblical\nEnglish form of the Greek name \u0391\u03bd\u03b4\u03c1\u03b5\u03b1\u03c2 (Andreas), which was derived from \u03b1\u03bd\u03b4\u03c1\u03b5\u03b9\u03bf\u03c2 (andreios) \"manly, masculine\", a derivative of \u03b1\u03bd\u03b7\u03c1 (aner) \"man\". In the New Testament the apostle Andrew, the first disciple to join Jesus, is the brother of Simon Peter. According to tradition, he later preached in the Black Sea region, with some legends saying he was crucified on an X-shaped cross. Andrew, being a Greek name, was probably only a nickname or a translation of his real Hebrew name, which is not known.... [more]\nANDY m & f English\nDiminutive of ANDREW or sometimes ANDREA (2). American pop artist and filmmaker Andy Warhol (1928-1987) was a famous bearer of this name.\nANGEL m & f English, Bulgarian, Macedonian\nFrom the medieval Latin masculine name Angelus which was derived from the name of the heavenly creature (itself derived from the Greek word \u03b1\u03b3\u03b3\u03b5\u03bb\u03bf\u03c2 (angelos) meaning \"messenger\"). It has never been very common in the English-speaking world, where it is sometimes used as a feminine name in modern times.\nANGIE f English\nDiminutive of ANGELA.\nANNA f English, Italian, German, Dutch, Swedish, Norwegian, Danish, Finnish, Estonian, Latvian, Greek, Hungarian, Polish, Russian, Ukrainian, Belarusian, Czech, Slovak, Bulgarian, Icelandic, Faroese, Catalan, Occitan, Breton, Biblical, Old Church Slavic, Biblical Latin, Biblical Greek\nForm of Channah (see HANNAH) used in the Greek and Latin Old Testament. Many later Old Testament translations, including the English, use the Hannah spelling instead of Anna. The name appears briefly in the New Testament belonging to a prophetess who recognized Jesus as the Messiah. It was a popular name in the Byzantine Empire from an early date, and in the Middle Ages it became common among Western Christians due to veneration of Saint Anna (usually known as Saint Anne in English), the name traditionally assigned to the mother of the Virgin Mary. In the English-speaking world, this form came into general use in the 18th century, joining Ann and Anne.... [more]\nANNE (1) f French, English, Swedish, Norwegian, Danish, Finnish, German, Dutch, Basque\nFrench form of ANNA. In the 13th-century it was imported to England, where it was also commonly spelled Ann. The name was borne by a 17th-century English queen and also by the second wife of Henry VIII, Anne Boleyn (the mother of Queen Elizabeth I), who was eventually beheaded in the Tower of London. This is also the name of the heroine in 'Anne of Green Gables' (1908) by Canadian author L. M. Montgomery.\nANNIE f English, French, Dutch\nDiminutive of ANNE (1).\nARLEN m English\nMeaning unknown, possibly from a surname.\nARLETTE f French\nFrench form of HERLEVA.\nARNIE m English\nDiminutive of ARNOLD.\nARNOLD m English, German, Dutch, Ancient Germanic\nFrom a Germanic name meaning \"eagle power\", derived from the elements arn \"eagle\" and wald \"power\". The Normans brought it to England, where it replaced the Old English cognate Earnweald. It died out as an English name after the Middle Ages, but it was revived in the 19th century.... [more]\nART m English\nShort form of ARTHUR.\nARTHUR m English, French, German, Dutch, Norwegian, Danish, Swedish, Welsh Mythology, Arthurian Romance\nThe meaning of this name is unknown. It could be derived from the Celtic elements artos \"bear\" combined with viros \"man\" or rigos \"king\". Alternatively it could be related to an obscure Roman family name Artorius. Arthur is the name of the central character in Arthurian legend, a 6th-century king of the Britons who resisted Saxon invaders. He may or may not have been a real person. He first appears in Welsh poems and chronicles (some possibly as early as the 7th century) but his character was not developed until the chronicles of the 12th-century Geoffrey of Monmouth.... [more]\nASTRID f Swedish, Norwegian, Danish, German, French\nModern form of \u00c1STR\u00cd\u00d0R. This name was borne by the Swedish writer Astrid Lindgren (1907-2002), the author of 'Pippi Longstocking'.\nATROPOS f Greek Mythology\nMeans \"inevitable, inflexible\" in Greek, derived from the negative prefix \u03b1 (a) combined with \u03c4\u03c1\u03bf\u03c0\u03bf\u03c2 (tropos) \"direction, manner, fashion\". Atropos was one of the three Fates or \u039c\u03bf\u03b9\u03c1\u03b1\u03b9 (Moirai) in Greek mythology. When her sister Lachesis decided that a person's life was at an end, Atropos would choose the manner of death and cut the person's life thread.\nAUBREY m & f English\nNorman French form of the Germanic name ALBERICH. As an English masculine name it was common in the Middle Ages, and was revived in the 19th century. Since the mid-1970s it has more frequently been given to girls, due to Bread's 1972 song 'Aubrey' along with its similarity to the established feminine name Audrey.\nAUDRA (2) f English\nVariant of AUDREY, used since the 19th century.\nAUDREY f English\nMedieval diminutive of \u00c6\u00d0EL\u00deRY\u00d0. This was the name of a 7th-century saint, a princess of East Anglia who founded a monastery at Ely. It was also borne by a character in Shakespeare's comedy 'As You Like It' (1599). At the end of the Middle Ages the name became rare due to association with the word tawdry (which was derived from St. Audrey, the name of a fair where cheap lace was sold), but it was revived in the 19th century. A famous bearer was British actress Audrey Hepburn (1929-1993).\nBARBIE f English\nDiminutive of BARBARA.\nBARRY m Irish, English\nAnglicized form of BAIRRE.

Saint Margaret, the patron of expectant mothers, was martyred at Antioch in the 4th century. Later legends told of her escape from a dragon, with which she was often depicted in medieval art.

        "raw_content": "How to develop emotional intelligence, here are 5 qualities to do so\nby BG Staff April 18, 2018, 8:15 pm 1.5k Views\nYour performance in the workplace and personal life is fueled by emotional intelligence. But it starts with you; it begins with your confidence, empathy, and optimism, to self-control, understanding, and managing your own emotions. A high level of emotional intelligence can accelerate success in all areas of your life. Fortunately, emotional intelligence is something that you can develop over a period of time and gain skills that can be implemented into everyday life.\nFollowing are the qualities that can help you provide a good starting point for discovering the foundations of your emotional intelligence.\nHandle criticism with patience:\nOne of the biggest benefits of having emotional intelligence is that it makes you self-aware. It provides you a deep understanding of your actions and emotions. This makes it really easy an emotionally intelligent individual to accept faults with honesty and clarity. So, when they are criticized, they do not get offended by it. They figure out what actually went wrong and make an effort to fix it.\nGreat listening:\nPeople who are emotionally intelligent know when they need to shut up and listen to what is being told to them. This is the ability you can work upon and separate yourself from the emotions that are urging you to speak instead of listening. You need to become a better listener in order to improve your level of emotional intelligence.\nThey speak the truth:\nYou do have to recognize emotions of other people when it comes to emotional intelligence but that does not mean that you need to sugarcoat the truth. Even when the message is tough, you must get it delivered clearly. You need to make others understand the real purpose they want you to listen without getting around it.\nDon\u2019t look for excuses:\nWhen you want to develop emotional intelligence and improve on it, you must start to accept your mistakes. Be honest in your apology and do not look for excuses. It will help everything to get on track quicker than when you deny your mistakes.\nThey remain open-minded:\nEmotional intelligence requires you to understand a situation without reacting to it. You need to be open to listening to ideas and opinions of other people and not rejecting them only because you don\u2019t like them. It will make you better ate tolerating people and quickly setting things up.\nPrevious article 5 ways to accelerate your success\nNext article How you can be good at learning anything",

I decided that a just, equitable society would be one that provided proper access to education for each student, and I wanted to be a part of finding the solution to the harmful tradition of educational inequity in our country.\nThe largest injustice I have ever experienced has been in the education system\u2026 When I mentioned Memphis, everyone said \u201cNo, you don\u2019t wanna go there,\u201d which to me means I must \u201cgo there.\u201d\nWhen I chose Memphis, I only knew half of the passion that exists in this city. I believe that education is one of, if not thetop priority for people in Memphis and it is energizing to be a part of this movement.\nI know Believe Memphis Academy is going to be a game changer for students in this city. I want to be apart of that change. By giving more students access to an excellent and rigorous education, we are opening the door for more high school graduates who are prepared to excel in college. It is my hope that these high school graduates will become college graduates who are prepared to make big changes in this world.\nA quality public school education should not be a luxury, nor should it be a rarity... I want every child in Memphis to have access to the same high-quality education that I experienced, and Believe Memphis Academy is poised to ensure just that.\nIf you asked any scholar in my classroom over the last several years her favorite subject in school, she would say math. MATH! In a society where women and people of color are drastically underrepresented in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) professions, this is game-changing.\nI stand with Believe Memphis Academy because the school\u2019s mission deeply resonates with me, personally and professionally. This city, my adopted home, is full of brilliant minds and abundant opportunity. We have a responsibility to one another, to the present and the future, to ensure that all our students are given every opportunity to succeed in life, regardless of race, socioeconomic status, zip code, family structure, language, or disability.\n\"Memphis is my hometown and my personal desire is to see it flourish and help people thrive. I long for the day that stories like mine are no more. The stakes could not be any higher and I am ready to work!\" - Trey Willis, Founding Team Member of Believe Memphis Academy\nSeeds of creativity and innovation remain buried in the minds and hearts of children throughout our city, never to sprout and grow as designed. This reality is unacceptable.\nWith charter schools comprising a fourth of Shelby County Schools, district leaders say they\u2019re setting a higher bar for opening new ones in Memphis. The school board approved only three out of 14 applications on Tuesday night, just months after the district overhauled its charter school office to strengthen oversight of the growing sector.",

        "raw_content": "If you\u2019re planning to head to Europe for business or pleasure in the next few months, you\u2019d be wise to start thinking about your travel money now. With Brexit on the horizon, the pound is looking increasingly unstable. This means you\u2019re going to get fewer euros for your pounds if you exchange them now than you would have a few years ago. This can be a shock to your finances if you aren\u2019t prepared. If you purchase before you travel, you have a chance to shop around for the best euro exchange rate.\nSavvy travellers know that it\u2019s always best to change your currency ahead of time and travel with the money you need, either in cash or as traveller\u2019s cheques. This helps you to avoid the sky-high commission you\u2019ll pay when changing money at the airport or using cash machines overseas. A common mistake that many travellers make is that they put their travel currency on a credit card, but this can be a costly error. Here\u2019s why\u2026\nMany people reach for their credit card when buying foreign currency because they believe it to be safer. In reality, you\u2019re paying a premium for this service. As many credit card owners will know, if they withdraw money from a cash machine using their credit card, they will be charged something known as a cash advance fee.\nThis is usually a percentage of the amount withdrawn and can vary between banks. Barclaycard charges just 2.99% while Virgin Money charges 5%. What many people don\u2019t know is that the same fees apply when purchasing foreign currency on a credit card. Even if you don\u2019t physically withdraw the money from a cash machine, you\u2019ll still be charged a cash advance fee on your euros.\nAnother issue with purchasing euros on a credit card is that interest will be charged from the moment you purchase your currency. Even if you pay off the credit card in full every month, you\u2019ll still pay the interest. It could be months before your trip and you\u2019ll already be paying for your currency. In an ideal world, you should only use your credit card to withdraw money in an absolute emergency or you\u2019ll end up paying over the odds.\nOptions for Travel Money\nNow that we\u2019ve ruled out purchasing your travel money on a credit card, what options are left for the savvy traveller?\nOne option is to use your debit card to either purchase currency or traveller\u2019s cheques. This will allow you to shop around for the best deal before your trip. However, many people are understandably wary about travelling with large amounts of cash. And traveller\u2019s cheques can be very inconvenient if you need your money in an emergency.\nOne option is to use a prepaid travel card which will allow you to top up your card before you travel and then use it like you would any other credit card. You can choose between cards that let you lock in an exchange rate before you travel or those who let you take advantage of the current exchange rates. The latter option could be risky, but if there is some good news about Brexit in the next few months and this helps to bolster the strength of the pound, your money could go a lot further.\nIt\u2019s important to pay attention to the fine print when signing up for a prepaid travel card, as some can even charge you for not using them, which is a pitfall best avoided. You should also be aware that you can\u2019t use this kind of card to rent a car and some petrol stations and toll booths in Europe won\u2019t accept them. However, if you\u2019re looking for a fuss-free way to spend money overseas, a prepaid travel card could be the solution.",

        "raw_content": "Thoughts on Postoperative Wound Healing\nFrom a surgical standpoint we close soft tissue layer by layer to help facilitate wound healing. The deeper layers have absorbable suture. The skin can have a combination of absorbable and nonabsorbable suture, I usually remove sutures between 2 and 3 weeks after surgery. Wounds on the top of the foot heal much faster than on the bottom. The skin is thicker on the bottom and it's not uncommon for wounds to take 3 or 4 weeks to heal on the bottom of the foot. Larger incisions take longer to heal. Some anatomical areas of the foot and ankle have more skin tension and require more protection and more time before the wound is fully closed, and the sutures are ready to come out.\nSometimes Steri-Strips are helpful to maintain wound strength is the final healing is occurring. If there is tension on the incision site, then postoperative cast boot immobilization or other protection can help avoid excessive stress on the wound, and incision. In general the foot has less blood flow than other parts the body and that is a factor in why the wounds take longer to heal.\nIf you are experiencing any foot or heel pain, do not hesitate call us at 425-391-8666 or contact us online.",

        "raw_content": "People who already purchased the $29 \"Bumper\" cases will be refunded.\nJobs began the event by saying, \"We're not perfect,\" but was quick to point out that no cell phone is perfect. He played a video showing competing smart phones, including a BlackBerry from Research in Motion Ltd., losing signal strength when held in certain ways.\nPhones usually have an antenna inside the body. In designing the iPhone 4, Apple took a gamble on a new design, using parts of the phone's outer casing as the antenna. That saved space inside the tightly packed body of the phone, but means that covering a spot on the lower left edge of the case blocks wireless signal.\nConsumer Reports magazine said covering the spot with a case or even a piece of duct tape alleviates the problem. It refused to give the iPhone 4 its \"recommended\" stamp of approval for this reason, and it had called on Apple on Monday to compensate buyers.\nOn Friday, in the company's first remarks following the magazine's report, Jobs said Apple was \"stunned and upset and embarrassed.\"\nJobs said the iPhone 4's antenna issue isn't widespread. He said just over five out of every thousand users have complained to Apple's warranty service, and less than 2 percent have returned the device.\n\"We're not feeling right now that we have a giant problem we need to fix,\" Jobs said. \"This has been blown so out of proportion that it's incredible. I know it's fun to have a story, but it's less fun when you're on the other end of it.\"\nAnalysts have criticized Apple's first responses to reports of reception problems as dismissive, and cautioned that the company shouldn't come across as arrogant.\nJobs apologized to buyers who had less than perfect experiences with the new device.\n\"We're going to do whatever it takes to make them happy and if we can't make them happy we're going to give them a full refund and say we're really sorry we inconvenienced you, and we're going to do better next time,\" the CEO said.\nThe refund applies even for those who have long-term contracts with AT&T Inc., the iPhone's exclusive U.S. wireless carrier.\nJobs, a cancer survivor, also addressed a question about his health Friday.\n\"I'm doing fine. I was even better earlier in the week (when) I was having a vacation in Hawaii, but I decided this was important enough to come back for,\" he said. \"I'm doing great.\"\nAP Technology Writers Peter Svensson in New York and Jessica Mintz in Seattle contributed to this report.\nWritten by JORDAN ROBERTSON,AP Technology Writer",

        "raw_content": "The meaning of Adoniram in the Bible\nad-o-ni'-ram ('adhoniram, \"my lord is exalted\"): An official of Solomon (I Kings 4:6; I Kings 5:14). Near the close of the reign of David, and at the opening of the reign of Rehoboam, the same office was held by Adoram (II Samuel 20:24; I Kings 12:18). The name Adoram seems to be a contraction of Adoniram, and doubtless the same person held the office in all the three reigns. The name also appears as Hadoram (II Chronicles 10:18). In the King James Version and the Revised Version (British and American) the office is variantly described as \"over the tribute,\" which is misleading, and \"over the levy,\" which is correct, though obscure. In the American Standard Revised Version it is uniformly \"over the men subject to taskwork.\" Adoniram was at the head of the department of forced labor for the government. The record is to the effect that peoples conquered by Israel, except the Canaanites, were to be spared, subject to the obligation to forced labor on the public works (Deuteronomy 20:11); that this law was actually extended to the Canaanites (Joshua 16:10; Joshua 17:13; Judges 1:28 ff.); that David, in his preparations for the temple, organized and handed over to Solomon a service of forced labor (I Chronicles 22:2, I Chronicles 22:15, etc.); that under Solomon this service was elaborately maintained (I Kings 5:13 ff.; I Kings 9:15 ff.; II Chronicles 8:7 ff.). It was not for the temple only, but for all Solomon's numerous building enterprises. In theory men of Israelite blood were free from this burden, but practically they found it a burden and a grievance. At the accession of Rehoboam they protested against it (1Ki. 12; 2Ch. 10). Nothing in the account is more indicative of Rehoboam's utter lack of good judgment than his sending his veteran superintendent of the forced labor department to confer with the people. The murder of Adoniram, and the ignominious flight of Rehoboam, were natural consequences.\nSee more on the meaning of Adoniram in the Bible:\nAdoniram {Easton's Bible Dictionary}\nAdoniram {Hitchcock's Bible Name}",

        "title": "New Covenant (Forerunner Commentary)",
        "raw_content": "Bible verses about New Covenant\nWe could easily think of integrity (\"righteously\" in NKJV) strictly in terms of law and pursue it no further. But when we see how this word is translated elsewhere, we add a dimension that helps us better understand how we should act toward our fellowman.\nIn Luke 23:41 and I Thessalonians 2:10, the same word is rendered \"justly,\" meaning right, proper, or fair. This is the adverbial form of the Greek dikaios, meaning \"to be conformed to that which is right,\" which Plato said is inseparably bound to the word translated \"sober\" above. A person who is dikaios neither selfishly nor forgetfully transgresses the bounds of what is right. He gives everyone his due.\nTo Christianity, this translates into \"my duty is my right.\" This concept branches out into areas of life like civility, consideration, concern, and respect and has little or nothing to do with what we normally consider as \"law.\" I Corinthians 13:4-7 is a clear example of such instruction.\nThe grace of God obligates us to these duties in our relationships with others. To conform to them fulfills what Paul means by living with integrity in Titus 2:12. It encompasses keeping the commandments, of course, but it also involves such virtues as probity, honesty, goodness, irreproachability, fairness, nobility, and being just and sensitive to another's needs, including giving correction in kindness and mercy (Galatians 6:1-2).\nIs God fair in His dealings with man? Consider this: Has God warned man what he is going to earn in the way of a death penalty if he sinned? Consider this list. In Exodus 21, we are warned that striking or cursing parents will result in death. In Leviticus 19, He says that if you desecrate a sacrifice, you are going to die. In Leviticus 24, He said that if you murder somebody, you are going to die. In Exodus 21, He says that if you kidnap somebody, you are going to die. In Leviticus 20, He says if you sacrifice a child in the fire, you are going to die. In Leviticus 24, He says, \"If you take My name in vain\u2014if you curse Me, if your use blasphemous statements about Me\u2014you are going to die.\"\nIn Exodus 35, He issues the death penalty for breaking the Sabbath. In Leviticus 20, He issues the death penalty for consulting mediums. In Leviticus 20, He says that if you are practicing homosexuality, you are going to die. In Leviticus 20, if you practice incest, you are going to die. In Exodus 22, if you practice bestiality, you are going to die. In Deuteronomy 22, He says that if you rape somebody, you are going to die. In Deuteronomy 13, if you give a false prophecy, you are going to die.\nIn Exodus 22, if you practice sorcery, you are going to die. In Exodus 22, if you sacrifice to a false god, you are going to die. In Leviticus, if you commit adultery, you are going to die. In Numbers 4, if you desecrate a holy thing, you are going to die. In Numbers 16, if you disagree with God's judgment, you are going to die. In Leviticus 21, if you are a priest's daughter and you play the harlot, you are going to die.\nThis is only a partial list. God has clearly made known the penalty to mankind. Is God acting fairly? The penalty for some of these offenses really sounds harsh to modern minds. Death for a false prophecy? Death for committing adultery? Death for bestiality or homosexuality? All of these penalties are given in the Old Testament. By contrast, there is no corresponding list of penalties in the New Testament, which misleads some who are close to being biblically illiterate into thinking that they prefer the God of the New Testament to the God of the Old Testament. But the God of the New Testament is exactly the same Being as the God of the Old Testament; He says, \"I change not\" (Malachi 3:6). \"Jesus Christ, the same yesterday, today, and forever\" (Hebrews 13:8).\nThose of us who are living under the New Covenant need to begin to think seriously about the way we conduct our lives, and especially in reference to our own relationship with God. We cannot deny that the New Testament list of capital offenses would appear to be a dramatic reduction from the Old. What we fail to consider is that the Old Testament list above is a massive reduction from what appears at the beginning of the Book, as in Genesis 18. The list, mainly out of Exodus, Leviticus, and Numbers, represents an astonishing measure of grace from how things began.\nSome time ago, in his \"A Moment of Hope\" radio commentary, a local preacher spoke of the power of words and how, if we want our lives to be hopeful, we need to keep our speech positive. He then quoted Proverbs 18:21 as wisdom on the subject: \"Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit.\"\nSo far, everything was fine\u2014and then he went and spoiled it by saying (paraphrasing), \"You can find that in the Jewish Testament of your Bible.\"\nThe Jewish Testament? What is that? There is no such thing! We could call the Old Testament \"the Hebrew Testament\" with some legitimacy because it was written in Hebrew, but what would make it Jewish? Was he trying to say that, if we read only the Old Testament, we would become followers of Judaism? Or, that the Jews somehow own the Old Testament? Or, that because the Old Testament is revered by Jews as their holy book, it is somehow inferior to \"the Christian Testament?\"\nCertainly, the Bible never calls the Old Testament \"the Jewish Testament.\" Paul calls it \"the Holy Scriptures\" in II Timothy 3:15. Jesus calls it \"the Law of Moses and the Prophets and the Psalms\" in Luke 24:44. In many places, the writers simply refer to it as \"the word [of God or of the Lord]\" or \"the Scripture(s).\" The only hint that the Old Testament \"belongs\" to the Jews is a misinterpretation of Romans 3:2, \"to them were committed the oracles of God.\" This means only that the Jews are responsible for their accurate transmission throughout history, not that they apply only to Jews or that Jews exclusively possess them in some way.\nNo, this all stems from the mistaken idea that the Old Testament is the Old Covenant, \"becoming obsolete and growing old . . . ready to vanish away\" (Hebrews 8:13), while the New Testament is the New Covenant. Thus, to a \"Christian\" under the New Covenant, anything that appears in the Old Testament is of lesser value than what appears in the New Testament. This error has led to countless misunderstandings and misinterpretations of the message Jesus brought to mankind.\nIn fact, the New Testament cannot be understood without the foundation of the Old Testament\u2014and not just in historical terms. Paul is not overstating things when he says the church is \"built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ being the chief cornerstone\" (Ephesians 2:20). After His resurrection, Jesus \"beginning at Moses and all the Prophets, . . . expounded to [the disciples] in all the Scriptures the things concerning Himself\" (Luke 24:27). Later, \"He opened their understanding, that they might comprehend the Scriptures\" (verse 45). Which Scriptures? The Old Testament, of course, the only ones written at the time!\nJust these few verses say that we New Covenant Christians cannot understand Jesus Christ, His doctrine, His church, and God's plan without the Old Testament. We can see this by how frequently the apostles quote from the writings of Moses, David, and the prophets to support and fill out their doctrinal teachings. There is hardly a page in the New Testament that does not have a quotation or allusion to the Old Testament on it. It is a vital part of New Covenant\u2014New Testament\u2014Christianity!\nLack of space does not permit an explanation of the differences between the Old Covenant and the New. However, let it suffice to say that the major problem in the Old Covenant was the people with whom God made it (see Hebrews 8:7-12; Romans 8:3). The New Covenant is modeled after the Old with its basic law, the Ten Commandments, retained in all its force and wisdom. In fact, Jesus makes it plain that He added intent to the law's scope so that it is now stricter under the New Covenant (Matthew 5:17-48)!\nIn the end, we must conclude that the Bible is a whole with two parts, which came as a result of the ministry of Jesus Christ and the languages in which the two parts were penned. The theology and the goal of the instruction in the two are the same. The same God who never changes rules, acts, and speaks in both. Those who believed and lived by faith in both eras will receive the same gift of eternal life (I Thessalonians 4:14-17; Hebrews 11:40).\nPlease be aware of this false notion of the Old Testament's inferiority to the New, as it colors a great deal of \"Christian\" biblical commentary. The Word of God is God's Word, whether spoken in 1400 BC or AD 60. Above all, remember our Savior's instruction, quoting from Deuteronomy 8:3, \"Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God\" (Matthew 4:4).\nEssays on Bible Study\nThis statement could be considered to be a lamentation that things would be different. However, God knew this before He entered into the Old Covenant; He was not surprised that Israel did not keep it. If anything may have grieved Him, perhaps their rebellion was worse than even He expected it would be.\nTo get a clear picture, one only has to recall the creation of Adam and Eve and the subsequent events in the Garden. God did not create Adam and Eve with an evil heart. Every biblical writer has recognized an innocence in the initial natures of Adam and Eve. They hid themselves from God only after they sinned. \"Who told you that you were naked?\" God said (Genesis 3:11).\nThey were confronted with choices and chose the evil way, to sin, and something happened to their minds after they sinned. This is very instructive. Their nature at creation was made impressionable, so that as they made choices, their minds or their dispositions became or conformed to the nature of the choices that they made. A conscience, a perspective, and a character began to be formed.\nI Corinthians 2:11 shows that our natural mind is strong in gathering, understanding, and using material knowledge but weak in gathering, understanding, and using spiritual knowledge. In the same manner, babies are not born evil, but they become evil as a result of the influences of life in their environments.\nForever does not always mean \"without end\" in biblical usage, but it does here. Sometimes forever means \"as long as conditions exist.\" Here, we are talking about a covenant, commandments, and about righteousness that endure forever (verses 3, 8-10\u2014and strongly implied in verses 5 and 7). In six out of ten verses, various words indicate \"time without end\" and reinforce \"forever and ever.\"\nThe covenant that he is talking about is the New Covenant, the one that will endure forever\u2014not the Old Covenant. In Hebrews 8, the Old Covenant is declared to be obsolete! The important point is that God's commandments are connected to the covenant that will last forever. The commandments are definitely not done away with the coming of the New Covenant. In this Psalm\u2014likely written during the time of Ezra\u2014God says that His commandments are not done away with the coming of a covenant that will last forever.\nHowever, the notion in Protestantism is that, since the Old Covenant is done away with, then God's law is also done away with. So, Protestant theologians decisively deal with the Old Covenant and the law of God in one fell swoop, but it is not correct. It does neatly get God's law out of the way, revealing an attitude behind their theology.\nTheir teaching continues by stating that a reason it had to be done away is that God's law is too difficult to keep\u2014that it is harsh and enslaving. They leave one with the definite impression that the reason it did not work - the fault, the flaw in the whole mix\u2014was God! Human nature is certainly agreeable to this because it is ever willing to shift the blame elsewhere to justify its conduct.\nThe solution to the Ecclesiastes 7:15-22 conundrum involves the converted person's faith in God. At the same time, it also heavily involves his fear of God and applying thoughtful wisdom to ensure he analyzes the situation accurately. Two of these spiritual qualities are directly named in Ecclesiastes 7, while faith, which is not directly named, is critical to the right solution. Influencing all three qualities is knowing God well enough from within the relationship to activate them all correctly. Consider II Corinthians 5:4-7:\nFor we who are in this tent groan, being burdened, not because we want to be unclothed, but further clothed, that mortality may be swallowed up by life. Now He who has prepared us for this very thing is God, who also has given us the Spirit as a guarantee. So we are always confident, knowing that while we are at home in the body we are absent from the Lord. For we walk by faith, not by sight.\nGod is preparing us for entrance into His Kingdom in a similar way a human instructor prepares a school student for graduation and service. There are two major differences though: We must matriculate our lessons by faith, and in our case, the purpose\u2014to be clothed with glory and eternal life\u2014is huge by comparison.\nThese verses assure us that God has made a contract with us\u2014the New Covenant\u2014in which we are responsible for carrying out assigned duties. He is preparing us to fulfill those responsibilities to a far greater extent in His Kingdom. As He is preparing us, we must live by faith.\nLuke 14:26-27 reminds us of the seriousness of the pledge we made to Jesus Christ at baptism, to live by faith while carrying out our responsibilities. This serious commitment works in our favor. Knowing God's character from the midst of this close relationship, we can always confidently be reassured that God is in control despite how difficult events look to us. This truth became the foundation for the psalmist's victory in his situation (Psalm 73). Our responsibility is to trust Him as the psalmist did, to walk by faith, not by appearance or physical observation. God is faithful!\nPaul, then, clearly establishes what our aim should be no matter the circumstances in our lives. We should desire to please God by being faithful to Him in return as demonstrated by trusting Him. He reinforces this by stating that we must be ready to answer for our choices.\nRomans and Ephesians make it clear that God accepts us in His presence at conversion and at all times during conversion only upon the meritorious sinless works of Jesus Christ. This is because, as Paul shows in Romans 7, sin stains all our works no matter how meritorious they may seem to us.\nThe Isrealites were choosing to forsake the relationship established through the Old Covenant. Why? Because they had a defiant and a rebellious heart! \"Revolting\" and \"departing\" indicates a conscious choosing.\nHow is this fault going to be overcome? By changing the nature of the party making the New Covenant, so that the flaw is removed. In Hebrews 8:10, Paul says that the reason for making the New Covenant is so God's law can be written in the heart.\nGod will destroy the nations to which Israel and Judah are scattered, and He will correct Israel and Judah in measure, as verse 11 says. But when the punishment is done, He will bring His people back to the land that He promised them and give them rest and peace. A number of other prophecies concerning the Second Exodus relate how God will bless the land, which will once again produce abundantly. Israel and Judah will have the Promised Land, they will have peace\u2014because this time their enemies will be completely destroyed, which Israel failed to do the first time\u2014and they will have prosperity. They will also be blessed numerically, as the remnant begins to multiply.\nBut this time the peace and prosperity will last, because two factors will be different. First, Israel and Judah will have perfect leadership: Jesus Christ will be King, and David will be His prince (Ezekiel 37:24-25; Jeremiah 23:3-7; Hosea 3:5; Micah 2:12-13). Corrupt or ambivalent leadership will no longer lead Israel astray; instead, the leaders will set the example of righteousness for the people to follow. Additionally, the twelve original apostles will be resurrected and sit as judges over the twelve tribes, ensuring that proper judgment is given (Matthew 19:28; Luke 22:30).\nSecond, Israel and Judah will both make the New Covenant, meaning that they will be given the Holy Spirit, which will enable them to keep the law in its spiritual intent (Jeremiah 31:31-34). They will be given a new heart, and will finally be able to know their God (Ezekiel 11:17-20; 36:24-29).\nThe Second Exodus (Part Two)\nThis Second Exodus has not happened yet. When it does, the Israelites will be keeping His laws just as we are\u2014in the power of His Spirit\u2014and they will be converted. They will be under the New Covenant.\nWe are obviously dealing with a marriage relationship between God and Jerusalem, representing all of Israel. The woman Israel was not faithful, and harlotry entered the relationship. From verse 15 on, the marriage relationship described here, the harlotry, the fornication, and the adultery of the woman is either inferred or directly stated in virtually every verse in this long chapter. In one verse after another, God is telling how she committed harlotry and why.\nThe liberal Interpreter's Bible Commentary says, \"Israel here is portrayed as a wife who became a pagan temple prostitute.\" That is a possibility, but I think the more conservative commentaries are more correct. She is portrayed as an unfaithful wife whose unfaithfulness is displayed in a far wider range of life and activities than just religious.\nIsrael\u2014the nation and wife\u2014is unfaithful in every area and activity of life that a faithful wife or nation would normally be involved in. The sexual orientation of what is written of her sin is used because sexual sins are the most common way unfaithfulness in marriage is shown to the public. It is something that everybody can relate to. However, the real spiritual sin behind all of these sexual terms is gross idolatry. Verse 59 says, \"For thus says the Lord GOD; I will even deal with you as you have done, which have despised the oath in breaking the covenant.\" She broke the marriage covenant and became a harlot.\nIsrael simply did whatever she wanted to do, when she wanted to do it, and in the manner that she wanted. Her harlotry is clearly the breaking of the terms of the marriage covenant, and it is unfaithfulness, disloyalty, and spiritual in nature. It is primarily idolatry, but all other sins are included. Israel was unfaithful in conducting business, both domestically and internationally. Israel was unfaithful in managing God's great green earth; unfaithful in forgetting who her blessings came from; unfaithful in the way they treated one another in their personal marriages; unfaithful in their childrearing practices.\nWe all know that the relationship being described here is between God and Israel, and the marriage entered into was the Old Covenant proposed and ratified at Mount Sinai. What God proposed to Israel, and to us under the New Covenant, is an entire way of life. It is not just religion. It is everything that the church ought to be, the example and teacher of things that are right and true.\nTwo parties are needed to make a new heart. The \"new man\" is the New Covenant man. He is the man to whom God has given a new heart and in whom He has placed a new spirit (Ezekiel 36:26). Here, God takes the initiative; it is His doing.\nYet, notice the change in terminology in Ezekiel 18:31: The responsibility becomes ours! \"Cast away from you all the transgressions which you have committed, and get yourselves [make you, KJV] a new heart and a new spirit.\" In this passage, it is man, not God, who creates the new heart and the new spirit. Ezekiel 18 and Ezekiel 36 do not contradict; by Himself, God cannot create the new man in us. He needs our cooperation.\nThe Hebrew word translated \"make\" in Ezekiel 18:31 (KJV) is asah. God uses it some 2,625 times in the Old Testament. The translators render it a number of ways.\n\u00bb To make in the sense of fabricate or build: \"God made the firmament\" (Genesis 1:7); \"And you shall make holy garments for Aaron\" (Exodus 28:2); \"I did not make an end of them [the children of Israel] in the wilderness\" (Ezekiel 20:17). Asah does not imply creation out of nothing - the Hebrew word bara, used only 60 times in the Old Testament, carries that meaning: \"In the beginning God created\" (Genesis 1:1). God is always the subject of bara, but as we can see from the examples, He is not always the subject of asah.\n\u00bb To execute in the sense of \"to do\": \"[Y]ou have established equity, You have executed justice and righteousness in Jacob\" (Psalms 99:4). \"Remove violence and plundering, execute justice and righteousness\" (Ezekiel 45:9).\n\u00bb To keep: \"Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy\" (Exodus 20:8); \"Because you . . . have not walked in My statutes, nor kept My judgments, . . . I . . . am against you\" (Ezekiel 5:7,8).\n\u00bb To prepare, especially a sacrifice: \"And when you prepare a young bull as a burnt offering, or as a sacrifice to fulfill a vow . . .\" (Numbers 15:8; see also verses 5, 6, 12). \"For since the beginning of the world, men have not heard, . . . what He ha[s] prepared for him that wait[s] for [H]im\" (Isaiah 64:4, KJV).\n\u00bb To work: \"He has filled them with skill to do [KJV work] all manner of work of the engraver\" (Exodus 35:35); \"Then Jonathan said, . . . '[I]t may be that the LORD will work for us\" (I Samuel 14:6); \"So we built the wall; . . . for the people had a mind to work\" (Nehemiah 4:6).\n\u00bb To commit: \"But if a wicked man turns from all his sins which he has committed, keeps all My statutes, and does what is lawful and right, he shall surely live, he shall not die\" (Ezekiel 18:21).\n\u00bb To do: \"And I gave them My statutes, and showed them My judgments, which, if a man does, he shall live by them\" (Ezekiel 20:11). \"I am the LORD your God: walk in My statutes, and keep My judgments, and do them\" (Ezekiel 20:19).\nThe conclusion is inescapable: asah, translated \"make\" in Ezekiel 18:31 (KJV), is synonymous with keep, do, work, and similar verbs. We \"make [ourselves] a new heart\" by what we do! Specifically, the action God requires of us is keeping His law, doing His commandments. This is a Christian's work.\nBy its meaning of \"prepare,\" asah describes both sides of the covenant agreement. It describes what God does for us and what we must do for ourselves if we are to receive the promises of the New Covenant.\nGod, for His part, has prepared unimaginable glory for us, as Isaiah 64:4 makes plain in the KJV (see I Corinthians 2:9). We are to prepare ourselves just as an Israelite prepared an animal sacrifice (see Numbers 15). It is up to us, as \"living sacrifices\" (Romans 12:1), to prepare ourselves for the marriage of the Lamb by putting on clean clothes - the new man (compare Revelation 19:7-9 with Colossians 3:9-10).\nJeremiah's prophecies preceded Ezekiel's, so we see an unfolding of how this will be accomplished. In Jeremiah 5, we find people setting their wills and choosing to forsake God. They cannot sustain the relationship with Him. In Jeremiah 31, God says He will propose a New Covenant, and the flaw will be taken away. Ezekiel 36 takes it one step further by beginning to tell us how this will be done.\nEzekiel's prophecy is of the institution of the New Covenant (see Jeremiah 31:33). The new man is the New Covenant man! What is it, exactly, that makes the new man new? Two things: his new heart and the new spirit within him, God's Holy Spirit, which enables him to walk in God's ways. Ezekiel's reference to \"a new heart\" parallels Paul's command for a renewed mind in Ephesians 4:24. Moreover, both Ezekiel and Paul (in Ephesians 5) make use of the walking metaphor. Did Paul have Ezekiel 36 in mind when he wrote his letter to the Ephesian church? Probably! The similarities are remarkable.\nThe keeping of the law is directly connected to this new Spirit\u2014God's Spirit! In II Corinthians 3:3, He clarifies this even further.\nThe Seventy Weeks Prophecy is perhaps best known for its descriptions of the future Beast. However, because of the poetic, non-linear style in which it is written, many are erroneously waiting for the Antichrist to make a peace treaty with the Jews for seven years. This misunderstanding results from the fact that the descriptions of the Messiah and the Beast are interwoven in verses 26-27. The Messiah is described in the first halves of verses 26 and 27, while \"the prince who is to come\" (the figure commonly known as \"the Beast,\" \"vile person,\" and \"little horn\") is described in the latter parts of the same verses (see \"Seventy Weeks Are Determined . . .\" Forerunner, December 1994.)\nBut in the first half of verse 27, it is the Messiah who is prophesied to \"confirm a covenant with many for one week.\" Recall that Jesus told His disciples, \"This is My blood of the new covenant, which is shed for many,\" and Hebrews 9:28 confirms this connection: \"Christ was offered . . . to bear the sins of many.\" So, even though it is not specifically called the new, eternal, or perpetual covenant in Daniel 9:27, as it is in other places, this is the covenant that is being described. This covenant radically alters the lives of those making it, for under its terms sin is forgiven, the Holy Spirit is given, God's laws are internalized, eternal life is granted (because it gives us personal, experiential knowledge of the Father and the Son; see John 17:3), and there are more instances of divine grace than can be counted.\nA large controversy in the early church dealt with the fact that Jews and Gentiles were on equal terms under the New Covenant, since it made salvation available to anyone who is called and responds in faith. In fact, when the Messiah began confirming this covenant, Israelites in general did not want to have anything to do with Him. He came to His own, but His own did not receive Him (John 1:11-12).\nAfter the leaders within Israel rejected Christ, the apostles began to preach the gospel to the Gentiles. Then, on the road to Damascus, Saul, renamed Paul, was appointed as the apostle to the Gentiles. Clearly, the prophecies regarding salvation for the Gentiles were coming to pass, showing that they were included in the New Covenant.\nThis is where we in the church are now. It matters not whether we are Israelite or Gentile\u2014we are the firstfruits of God's spiritual harvest and already beneficiaries of a superior covenant with extraordinary promises.\nFinishing the Week\nProtestants try to ascribe the covenant of verse 27 to the Antichrist because \"he,\" they say, refers to \"the prince who is to come.\" But this cannot be! Remember the poetic organization! The key is the word \"many.\" It is literally \"the many,\" and whenever it is used in the Old Testament, it refers to either the covenant people Israel or to the saints, that is, true believers. Jesus says in Matthew 26:28, \"For this is My blood of the new covenant, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.\" Christ makes the covenant, not Antichrist!\nConfirm means \"strengthen\" or \"make firm\"\u2014almost to the point of being unbreakable. This helps substantiate its reference to the New Covenant, an everlasting covenant that strengthened the basic requirements of the Old Covenant. Significantly, when Christ in the Olivet Prophecy gives His disciples the signs of the end, He does not mention a covenant or treaty to be enacted between the Antichrist and the Jews, Christians, saints, or anyone! He does mention both of the events Gabriel mentions here: the destruction of Jerusalem in AD 70 (Matthew 24:2) and the abomination of desolation (verse 15).\nWhat about the final three and a half years of the seventieth week? They have yet to be fulfilled, but Gabriel leaves us hanging regarding when they occur. He does not mention them. When could they be fulfilled?\nThe seventieth week has been completely fulfilled by the three and a half year ministry of Christ. This seems to be the least likely of these options.\nChrist will complete His ministry in the first three and a half years after His return, before Satan is locked in the bottomless pit. But the Bible does not indicate that any time elapses between His return and Satan's binding in Revelation 19 and 20.\nThey are the years of the Great Tribulation and the Day of the Lord, during which Christ will complete His ministry through the Two Witnesses and/or to the church in the Place of Safety. Again, this is only speculation\u2014although Paul's training in Arabia may provide a precedent (Galatians 1:11-18).\nEach year in the spring, when we observe the Passover, we partake of the wine, which symbolizes the shed blood of Jesus Christ. When He instituted this new Passover symbol, He explained it by saying, \"This is My blood of the new covenant, which is shed for many\" (Mark 14:24). When we come under the blood of Jesus Christ upon our baptism and acceptance of Him as our Savior, we enter into that New Covenant.\nConsidering how important the New Covenant is, there are surprisingly few references to it within the New Testament\u2014and even fewer explanations. What references there are\u2014largely in the book of Hebrews\u2014depend heavily on quotations from the Old Testament prophets. In fact, the New Testament teaching of the New Covenant relies entirely on one already having an understanding from reading the prophets. Without those prophecies, we would not understand what we actually enter into.\nThe New Covenant is mentioned in numerous places (Isaiah 54:9-10; 55:3; 59:20-21; 61:1-11; Jeremiah 32:36-41; 50:4-5; Ezekiel 16:60-63; 20:33-38; 34:23-26; 37:15-28), but perhaps the clearest description\u2014and the one quoted in Hebrews 8:8-12 and 10:16-17\u2014is found in Jeremiah 31:31-34.\nHere, the difference between God's Holy Spirit and our spirit is noted. God's Spirit (His Word, His thoughts, His way) always produces life\u2014eternal life\u2014the way God lives. Jesus was made a life-giving Spirit, and He is the High Priest. As High Priest, He is in charge of the administration of life (see II Corinthians 3). The difference between the two covenants is that the priesthood under the Old Covenant could not administer life, but the Priesthood under the New Covenant administers life by providing the Spirit of God to the mind of man. Demons and men cannot truthfully claim what Jesus claimed here, that His Spirit is life. Man's spirit, like the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, produces death, because it produces sin.\nCondemnation would have meant the death penalty because \"the wages of sin is death.\" Jesus provides us an example of righteous judgment under the terms of the New Covenant. First, let us consider who He is, so that we can see His authority. He is Immanuel\u2014\"God with us.\" If anybody understood the application and administration of the law of God for the church under the New Covenant, it was Jesus of Nazareth. In addition, He is not only Immanuel, He is also the Head of the church.\nWhy does He make this judgment? Under the terms of the New Covenant, the church is not a civil entity, meaning that it has no civil authority to carry out the death penalty. But does this mean that the law of God is done away? No. Romans 6:23 still says, \"The wages of sin is death.\" Death for sin is merely delayed under the New Covenant. The sin and the death penalty are still there, but the church is in a peculiar position in relation to law. The law of God is not administered by the church as it was by Israel when they made the Old Covenant with God. Both covenants have the same laws, but different administrations.\nAre adultery and lust (two sins involved in this episode) still sins under the New Covenant? Absolutely! So is the breaking of the other eight commandments. But the church, out of necessity, has to administer it differently. Forgiveness of this woman is implied, as Jesus, Immanuel, said that He did not condemn her. Even though it is not stated directly, He forgave her.\nBut did He say, \"Go, and don't be concerned about committing adultery again\"? Certainly not! As the Head of the church, He said, \"Go, and don't break that law again!\" He justified her in relation to this one law, and warned her, \"Don't break it.\" His forgiveness did not do away with the law! It is ridiculous, on its face, to conclude that, when grace clears us and brings us into alignment with God and His laws, that it eliminates the law! Only when there is a clear statement or example in God's Word that a law has been put aside should we make such a determination.\nFor those who have made the New Covenant with God, it is the Holy Spirit that teaches and brings to remembrance\u2014not the ceremonial law! Hebrews 10:3 shows that the sacrifices were only a reminder of sin. Today, the Holy Spirit is the reminder, triggering thoughts in our minds. In addition, because God has made the Spirit available, the various washings that are emblematic of God's Spirit are also set aside. Here are clear statements that the imposition of those ceremonial regulations has been lifted.\nJohn 15:1-6 deals with the productivity achieved in our lives after conversion begins. This teaching begins to make abundantly clear how much we need Him. Interestingly, what Jesus teaches in John 6 about being the bread of life\u2014which also shows how much we need Him\u2014occurred fairly early in His ministry. The exhortation here occurs at the end of His ministry, speaking to His disciples following His final Passover observance. He confirms that what the Father desires to be produced in our relationship cannot be produced apart from Christ. This passage is a final admonition for us to make every effort to remain \"in\" Him, not allowing what just happened with Judas to happen to us. By betraying His Savior, Judas abandoned the responsibility imposed by the New Covenant.\nFor the moment, consider the beginning of the relationship. We can overlook the arresting fact that, without Jesus paying the penalty for our sins, there would be no future except for death. Without it, there would be no looking forward to a joyous and productive life in the Kingdom of God. In fact, there would be no relationship at all. Without Him providing this for us, there would be no hope at all. Could we pay the penalty for sin and continue living?\nUnderstanding the symbolism Jesus used is helpful in grasping how much we need what Christ did and does. To glean as much as we can from this, we need to tie it to its wider context, Jesus' final Passover with His disciples. Certain references to bread are made as part of Jesus' change of the Passover symbols, which helps to tie the symbolism together with His crucifixion for our forgiveness. Paul writes in I Corinthians 11:23-24:\nFor I received from the Lord that which I also delivered to you: that the Lord Jesus on the same night in which He was betrayed took bread; and when He had given thanks, He broke it and said, \"Take eat; this is My body which is broken for you; do this in remembrance of Me.\"\nIn John 6, bread plays an important role. It is frequently used as a metaphor for Christ Himself. I Corinthians 11 clearly ties bread, also named in John 13:18, to the giving of His body in the crucifixion. I Corinthians 11:25-26 adds:\nIn the same manner He also took the cup after supper, saying. \"This cup is the new covenant in My blood. This do, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me.\" For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord's death till He comes.\nThis second symbol is important to grasping what Christ teaches in John 15:1-6 correctly. The vine He speaks of is obviously the grape vine. He clearly states that He is the vine and that we are the branches attached to Him. Just as grapes can be produced only by a shoot that remains attached to the vine, we can produce spiritual fruit that pleases the Father and thus be in the Kingdom of God only if we remain attached to Jesus Christ. In this illustration, all nourishment that results in fruit must come from the vine. He not only pays the penalty of our sins, but He also supplies the spiritual nourishment to produce fruit that glorifies the Father and prepares us for life in God's Kingdom.\nJohn 8:31-32 reminds us that continuing in His Word is the key to knowing the truth and becoming free. This greatly enhances the production of fruit. Thus, if we fulfill our responsibility, we are in that sense in partnership with Him in performing our duties under the New Covenant. A wonderful additional benefit of remaining in Christ is that those who faithfully fulfill their roles are not gathered up and cast into the fire, as John 16:6 warns.\nGod gradually unfolds before us what the conditions for conversion are. Layer upon layer of truth, or revelation, is needed to get the fullness of a subject.\nHere are the conditions: We have to be called (John 6:44). We have to repent. We have to believe the gospel. We have to believe in Jesus Christ. We have to begin obeying God, because God gives His Spirit to those who obey Him (John 14:15-18; Acts 5:32). We have to be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ. We also have to have hands laid on us (Acts 8:14-17).\nThis should help us to understand that the \"writing of the law on our hearts\" (Hebrews 8:10) is a cooperative effort. It is not something done only by God, but it absolutely requires what God does. It also requires that we do something. When a person does these things, he is meeting the terms of the New Covenant - not all of them yet.\nWere there terms like this in the Old Covenant? No. What a difference exists between the two! It is no wonder that the Old Covenant is becoming obsolete (Hebrews 8:13). It is no wonder the Old Covenant could not be kept (Hebrews 8:7). There is such a flaw, a fault, in every one of us (Hebrews 8:8). God knew this when He made the Old Covenant with Israel. Since God is love, He left us an example of how much the New Covenant means to us, so that we could look back on history and understand what awesome gifts have been given to us. By that, He hopes to create within us a deep sense of thanksgiving and of obligation.\nThe Gentiles' conversion resulted in a serious controversy in the church over whether they should be required to be circumcised. This major issue resulted in the convening of the first ministerial conference in the history of God's church (Acts 15). At this conference, the ministry was led to decide that the Gentiles do not need to be circumcised.\nGod revealed to the apostles that, under the New Covenant, He makes no distinction between Jew and Gentile. Regardless of race or ethnic origin, He extends the promises of salvation to any and all whom He chooses to call. Under the New Covenant, physical descent from Abraham no longer matters because God is concerned only over the person's repentance and faith in Christ. Those who receive the Holy Spirit after repentance and baptism become \"the seed of Abraham.\" Additionally, because the purpose and meaning of physical circumcision have been superseded by the New Covenant, there is no need to inflict pain and possible psychological distress on an adult male through this operation.\nPeter emphasizes that God looked upon the hearts of the Gentiles and saw their repentance. Although they were not circumcised, God forgave their sins because of their repentance and faith in Christ and granted them the gift of the Holy Spirit. They were, therefore, justified by faith and spiritually circumcised, that is, in heart and mind (Romans 2:28-29). During the Jerusalem conference, God revealed to the apostles that justification fulfilled the spiritual symbolism of circumcision.\nThe Old Covenant could not free a person from sin; there was no mechanism to remove sin (see Hebrews 10:4). All it could do, therefore, was to continue the people's prevailing bondage to sin. However, those under the New Covenant can be made free from sin.\nGod is looking for those who will worship Him in spirit and in truth. However, in order to worship Him in this way, one must have the Spirit of God! In Matthew 26:41, Jesus says, \"The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak. A person's flesh can respond to something inspirational and even say, \"Yes, I want to do right.\" But if his heart is not circumcised, a person lacks the resolve to do right consistently. The New Covenant was designed by God to circumcise the heart!\nThe context of Romans 8 is somewhat different than the context in Hebrews 8, but the principle Paul deals with is similar. Flesh in Romans 8:3 refers to people. The problem with the Old Covenant was not with its laws, but with one of the parties who made the covenant\u2014\"them\" (Hebrews 8:8). Obviously, he refers to the people who made the covenant. They would not keep its terms!\nThis is confirmed by the Old Testament record, which shows that Israel never kept the Old Covenant except for brief periods of time. This is why there are so many references in the Old Testament to their being stiff-necked, being fornicators or adulterers, or filled with iniquity.\nIt was not that Israel could not keep the terms of the covenant but that they would not. God's intent in making the Old Covenant was limited. Israel should have been able to keep its terms. To think otherwise is to accuse God of being unfair in His proposition and having taken advantage of Israel's ignorance. Human nature is always looking for ways to shift blame.\nWe must be careful, or we might be guilty of doing the same thing under the New Covenant. We could say that it is too hard, and use our complaint as a justification for our failures and bad attitudes. Jesus anticipated this.\nIn the Parable of the Talents in Matthew 25, He gives five talents to one, two talents to another, and one talent to a third. The response of the person to whom He gave one talent is, \"I knew that You were a hard man, and that You reap where you do not sow. And therefore I hid it\" (Matthew 25:24-25). He is saying, \"God, You were too hard!\" He essentially shifts the blame to God. Jesus understood that human nature never changes: It always wants to shift the blame!\nPaul makes a strong, urgent appeal to Christians to devote their lives to sacrifice. Sacrifice suggests the giving up or forfeiture of something or oneself for something or someone considered to be of greater value. In this context, the \"Someone\" is Jesus Christ and the \"something\" is God's way of life. The apostle is urging those of us who have had the revelation of God given to us to devote ourselves entirely to living it.\nHe urges us to sacrifice our bodies. He does not mean to imply giving up merely our skin and bones but the totality of what we are\u2014our entire beings including our minds with all of their character, energy, knowledge, experiences, skills, perspectives, and attitudes\u2014with nothing held back, since we are likely to hold a portion of our life in reserve just for ourselves. In other words, he is asking us to consecrate our entire lives to God. Note that Paul does not call this \"extreme,\" but \"reasonable.\"\nWhy would one even consider taking on the potential for such costly pain? No one really grasps the fullness of what God asks of those who make the New Covenant with Him at baptism. This witness in Romans 12:1-2 is nonetheless part of His Word to testify against us. There is a good reason, succinctly given in Romans 5:5: \"Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us.\" We do it because God's love for His Son has been given to us and is growing. His investment in us, His grace, is beginning to be returned.\nThe love of God, the biblical love, is not a mere affection but an outgoing concern equal to or greater than self-concern. This love, which we do not have by nature but is given by God as a gift, will sacrifice itself for the well-being of others. It will pay the costs of forfeiture of self-interest for the well-being even of enemies. It will choose to lay down its life following the pattern shown in Jesus' life.\nThe love of God is an unearned, dynamic gift from God that influences one who has it toward oneness with God and fellow man. It must be deliberately chosen, though, in order to be put to use.\nAt this juncture, its costs come to the fore because, despite conversion, human nature remains. Though considerably weakened, it still exerts its influences toward the self (Romans 7:14-23; Galatians 5:16-17). We must overcome human nature's influences, but in virtually every case, we must make a sacrifice to fulfill the influences of the love of God. Sacrificing almost always involves the potential for loss, at times a considerable loss.\nA number of verses reveal that, in one sense, choosing whether to sacrifice oneself in obedience to Jesus Christ is not a realistic option to anyone who claims to love Him. In John 14:15, Jesus says, \"If you love Me, keep My commandments.\" He adds in John 14:21, \"He who has My commandments and keeps them, it is he who loves Me.\" Verse 15 is a direct command and challenge to anyone claiming to love Him, and verse 21 says that one's following through in submissive obedience is the proof that the claimant loves Him. I John 5:3 adds a resounding confirmation to verse 21 by providing the Bible's definition of love: \"For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments. And His commandments are not burdensome.\"\nLove comes at a high price, but it is also rewarding because, as we make the sometimes costly choices to please God by following Jesus Christ, we transform more fully into His image due to following the pathway our Savior blazed before us. Becoming a living sacrifice is one of the costs that observing Passover should recall to our memories, giving us substance for sober reflection aimed toward revitalizing our understanding of the significance of this important day.\nThe subject here is not the doing away with laws but the change in administration of existing laws. Remember that Jesus said not one jot or tittle will pass from the law (Matthew 5:18). In Hebrews 8:10, where the context is the Covenant, the New Covenant is shown to have laws, which will be written in our hearts.\nPaul is making a comparison, showing the superiority of the ministry's responsibility under the New Covenant to the priesthood's responsibility under the Old. He compares ink with spirit, stone with flesh, letter with spirit (or intent), and death with life.\nThe \"ministration of death\" was Israel's civil administration for punishing violations of civil law. The laws were not done away, but the Old Covenant administration and enforcement of the law was set aside because the church does not have civil authority. It is that simple.\nThe church does not have civil authority over the state. However, the ministry has the opportunity to play a large part in the ministering of life to those God calls\u2014through teaching and administering God's Word. Thus, the letter killed because the Old Covenant could not provide for life. Words\u2014even of divine origin\u2014cannot produce life. A vitalizing Spirit must be present to charge the words with transforming power.\nUnder the Old Covenant, God did not promise His Holy Spirit, forgiveness of sin, access into His presence, or eternal life. Jesus raised the civil law from its merely carnal application to the nation of Israel to its spiritual application to the church, which would be drawn from all of mankind, including, of course, the Gentiles.\nWhen Paul speaks of \"the ministry of death,\" he refers to the administration of the Old Covenant rather than the Ten Commandments. The Levitical priesthood, a carnal priesthood based on physical descent from Levi, administered the Old Covenant. This covenant provided no promise of eternal life and no means for sinners to receive forgiveness because \"it is not possible that the blood of bulls and goats could take away sins\" (Hebrews 10:4). Therefore, the people lived and died under the condemnation of the law, and \"the wages of sin is death\" (Romans 6:23).\nAnother reason why Paul refers to the Old Covenant as \"the ministry of death\" is that God required the Levitical priesthood to execute those who transgressed certain laws. God's law mandates the death penalty for certain sins like murder and dishonoring parents (Exodus 21:12-17), Sabbath-breaking (Exodus 31:14-15) and certain sexual sins (Leviticus 20:10-13). The priests were responsible to enforce the death penalty by actually putting such transgressors to death in the proscribed manner. In this sense, the Old Covenant ministry was indeed a \"ministry of death.\"\nHowever, why did Paul say that the \"ministry of death,\" the administration of the Old Covenant, was \"written and engraved on stones\"? Was it not the Ten Commandments that God wrote on two stone tablets? Even though the Ten Commandments were not the covenant itself (a covenant is simply an agreement between two parties), they were the terms of the covenant. Because the Ten Commandments constituted the part of the agreement between God and Israel that the Israelites agreed to keep, the Old Covenant became synonymous with the Ten Commandments. In Deuteronomy 4:13 Moses writes, \"So He declared to you His covenant which He commanded you to perform, that is, the Ten Commandments; and He wrote them on two tables of stone.\" To put it another way, \"keeping the Old Covenant\" was the same as \"keeping the Ten Commandments.\"\nA paraphrase of the first eleven words of II Corinthians 3:7 helps to clarify what Paul means: \"But if the administration of the Old Covenant, [the terms of which were] written and engraved on stones. . . .\" The Ten Commandments undergirded all the laws that God gave to Israel\u2014laws that the Israelites could not keep. The responsibility to teach these laws to Israel and enforce penalties for disobedience, including the death penalty, fell to the priests.\nTherefore, if perfection were through the Levitical priesthood (for under it the people received the law), what further need was there that another priest should rise according to the order of Melchizedek, and not be called according to the order of Aaron? (Hebrews 7:11)\nWhen Moses went up Mount Sinai the second time to receive the Ten Commandments, he wrote God's statutes and judgments in a book, and God wrote the Ten Commandments on two tables of stone. This, in essence, finalized the \"contract\" that God made with Israel.\nThen the LORD said to Moses, \"Write these words, for according to the tenor of these words I have made a covenant with you and with Israel.\" So he was there with the LORD forty days and forty nights; he neither ate bread nor drank water. And He wrote on the tablets the words of the covenant, the Ten Commandments. (Exodus 34:27-28)\nVerses 29-35 then describe how Moses face shone when he delivered the Ten Commandments and the book of the law to Israel.\nSo what is passing away? Hebrews 8:13 provides the answer: \"In that He says, 'A new covenant,' He has made the first obsolete. Now what is becoming obsolete and growing old is ready to vanish away.\" The Old Covenant and the Old Covenant ministry, the Levitical priesthood, are passing away, not the Ten Commandments!\nThe account of Acts 15 shows that it is not necessary for salvation for Christians to be physically circumcised. Salvation is by grace through faith, and faith without works is dead. We cannot \"work\" or \"earn\" our way into the Kingdom of God. The privilege to be a part of the eternal Kingdom is one that God bestows according to His will. Nothing we can do will make God indebted to us or require Him to do something for us, such as grant us admission into His Kingdom.\nBut at the same time, if we are within the salvation process, we must show forth works, or fruits, that demonstrate our repentance, our attitude, and our desire to live by the rules of His Kingdom. We must live now in the same way that we will be living for eternity\u2014by the laws of God's Kingdom. Our works do not save us; they demonstrate that we are being saved.\nUnder the Old Covenant, the ceremonies and ordinances were primarily physical, and the spiritual aspects were implied. Under the New Covenant, the ceremonies and ordinances are primarily spiritual, and the physical aspects are implied. For example, there is no record of Christ ever performing an animal sacrifice, even though the Old Testament requires one in the morning and in the evening. Under the New Covenant, the physical rite is not required, yet the basic law is still there, and is thus manifested in morning and evening prayer, a sacrifice of our time and energy.\nIn the same regard, the council of Acts 15 shows that circumcision is not one of the works that is required to demonstrate the salvation/sanctification process. When considering eternity and the spiritual bodies that we will have at that time, circumcision is almost insignificant. What is truly important is whether or not the heart has been circumcised. The physical rite was a reminder to the children of Israel that they were separate and distinct, but even in this God was looking for a change of heart so much more so than a modification of the flesh.\nThe word translated here \"foolish\" means unintelligent or unwise, and by implication sensual. This implication is very interesting when considered in light of what the letter to the Galatians is fundamentally about: The Galatians were trying to use the rites and ceremonies and physical requirements of Gnostic Judaism to \"work\" their way into God's Kingdom. Their emphasis was on what they were doing, rather than on God's work in them. Their focus was on things dealing with the senses; things that would be, by definition, sensual\u2014not in terms of being sexual or provocative, but rather indicating the emphasis on the physical senses.\nThis word (anoeetoi\u2014Strong's #453) is a derivative of a negative participle and noeo (Strong's #3539), which means to exercise the mind, observe, to comprehend, heed, consider, perceive, think, or understand. So the word foolish is the opposite (because of the negative participle) of all these things. The Galatians, then, were not exercising their minds; they were unobservant, uncomprehending, unheeding, inconsiderate, imperceptive, non-thinking, and non-understanding. They were not thinking things all the way through, and not fully considering all of the aspects of the way they were living. They were unable to see that their ideas and views did not add up\u2014that there were some obvious gaps in their understanding that had brought them to the condition they were in.\nPaul here is continuing with a theme from Galatians 1:4-9\u2014namely, that the Galatians were falling away (\"so soon removed\") from the original teaching that had been given to them by God through His human servants. The very foundation of the New Covenant with God is that we can build a relationship with God directly\u2014because of the sacrifice of Christ. For them even to make the covenant with God properly, it was a requirement that they understand that justification by means of a sinless sacrifice was the only way it is possible for us to come into God's presence! Our own righteousness is as \"filthy rags\" in comparison to God's; our works simply do not amount to enough to even out the scales. But this does not negate the necessity of working! The Galatians' problem was that they thought their personal righteousness was sufficient\u2014and if that was the case, then truly there was no need for Christ to die.\nPaul refers to the Galatians being \"bewitched.\" This word means \"to malign,\" or \"to fascinate by false representation.\" The Galatians were drawn in\u2014their fascination was piqued by these Jewish and Gnostic ideas. It did not take long for them to begin slipping spiritually, and a large part of this was because of their misplaced faith. They had more faith in themselves, in their own works, to save them than they had in Christ's crucifixion, resurrection, and intercession! They did not see or know God clearly enough, and the absence of Him in their lives created a void that was quickly and easily filled by these false ideas.\nThis is the only place in the New Testament where this word (\"bewitched\") is used (Strong's #940), but numerous other verses speak of this principle. Paul is speaking of this principle when he says in Galatians 1:7-9 not to deviate from this gospel message even if an \"angel\" from heaven gave them different instructions! The Galatians were weak enough in the faith that they could be easily deceived and drawn away if one of Satan's angels were to appear before them.\nMatthew 24:24 speaks of false Christs\u2014false ideas, pictures, impressions about Christ\u2014arising, as well as false prophets, who will be able to manifest terrific signs and wonders to the extent that even the elect of God could be deceived if God allowed it! This is why we have to have such a concrete picture in our minds of what \"Christ\" is comprised of so that when we begin to hear about or see miraculous things, our faith will not be shaken as the Galatians' was.\nIn all of mankind since Adam, only one person has qualified to receive the inheritance of the promises that were made to Abraham\u2014Christ.\nWe can see the requirements as early as Genesis 17:1, where God says to Abraham, \"Walk before Me, and be perfect.\" Some Bibles translate it, \"Be blameless,\" which means the same thing; \"Be without sin.\" Christ, at the end of His life, was found to be blameless; therefore, He qualified to receive the promises. He met every condition of the Covenant, and then became the Inheritor.\nVerse 29 is explaining that, if we are \"in Christ\" (in union with Him), then we become co-heirs with Him. We become co-inheritors with Him, if we have met the conditions the Bible gives: God has called us; we have unconditionally surrendered to God; we believe the gospel; we believe in the blood of Jesus Christ; we have been baptized; we have received the Holy Spirit; we have had hands laid on us. Then we also become \"in Christ.\" The picture is as if we were part of Christ's body, and we are \"in\" Him. That is not actually what has occurred, but we are within the church.\nChrist, being the Inheritor of the promises, then made out a will, as it were, prior to His death for the forgiveness of our sins. This will is also the New Covenant, which includes all the promises and blessings the Scriptures show us.\nChrist had to die for a number of reasons. First of all, He was physical; and it is given to all men to die once (Hebrews 9:27). Another reason is that the wages of sin is death (Romans 6:23), and when our sins were placed on Him, He then came under the law and the law claimed its penalty\u2014He died. Another reason is that He had to be transformed, glorified by means of a resurrection, because, as long as He was in the flesh, He could not inherit the promises either. One has to be eternal to inherit them; \"flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God\" (I Corinthians 15:50).\nThroughout his writings, Paul uses the terms \"law\" and \"covenant\" interchangeably. One has to use the context to determine whether he is talking about a single statute, a body of laws, a covenant/agreement, or the Pentateuch. Notice how Paul uses the term \"law\" later in the book of Galatians:\nTell me, ye that desire to be under the law, do ye not hear the law? For it is written, that Abraham had two sons, the one by a bondmaid, the other by a freewoman. But he who was of the bondwoman was born after the flesh; but he of the freewoman was by promise. (Galatians 4:21-23)\nThe births of Isaac and Ishmael are recorded in Genesis chapters 16 and 21, hundreds of years before the Old Covenant was given. Yet, Paul refers to that portion of scripture as \"the law\"! Obviously, in this example Paul uses \"law\" to mean the entire Pentateuch (the first five books of the Bible), not just the commandments.\nThe end of Galatians 3:19, as well as verse 20, show that the \"law\" here was not just instruction to a group of people by a superior; the reference to a mediator shows that there was an agreement being discussed rather than a decree or a body of laws. If a king makes a law, there is no need for a process of mediation because the matter it is not open for discussion with the people. A mediator is only necessary when both parties have to agree to something, which clearly indicates a covenant rather than just a decree or law.\nThe Old Covenant was in addition to the one that God made with Abraham (\"it was added\"). It was not the first time that God's law had been taught, though; the Bible says specifically that Abraham kept God's commandments (Genesis 26:5). It shows Abraham and Jacob both tithing. It shows Abel and Noah already having an understanding of clean and unclean animals. The Sabbath harkens back to Creation (Genesis 2:1-3), and was given to Israel again after they left Egypt but before the Old Covenant was proposed (Exodus 16). Reading through Genesis and Exodus, it is very clear that there was a codified set of rules\u2014laws\u2014long before they were officially recorded at Mt. Sinai.\nThe Old Covenant was added because of the sins of the people. It was added, not to provide a means of justification, but to demonstrate to Israel what was right and wrong, because their \"moral compass\" had been badly damaged through their experiences in Egypt. The children of Israel sojourned in Egypt for centuries, during which time they lost the knowledge of God's way. They forgot His instructions to such a degree that God had to teach them all over again the way of life that was pleasing to Him. They had been so immersed in the pagan Egyptian culture that all of these laws, statutes, judgments, instructions, etc., were completely new to them. God added the Old Covenant to the one He made with Abraham as a sort of \"booster shot\"\u2014Israel was so off track that God had to realign them with His ways by means of this temporary covenant.\nPaul says that the Old Covenant is \"becoming obsolete and ... ready to vanish away\" (Hebrews 8:13). However, even though the agreement is ready to vanish away, that does not mean God's law has become obsolete. The law and the covenant, in practice, describe two different things. The law is the codified standard of conduct God gave to His people; the covenant was the agreement in which Israel agreed to abide by God's laws. A change to the agreement, though, does not abolish the standard of conduct! The New Testament abounds with examples of God's law still being in effect (Matthew 19:17; 23:23; John 14:15,21; 15:10; Acts 21:24; 24:14; 26:19-20; 28:23; Romans 3:31; 6:1-2,15; 7:12,22,25; 8:7; I Corinthians 7:19; Ephesians 5:5; I Timothy 1:8-11; II Timothy 2:5; Titus 1:16; 2:11-14; Hebrews 8:10; James 1:22-25; 2:8-12; 2:14-26; I John 2:3-6; 3:22-24; 5:2-3; II John 1:6; Revelation 12:17; 14:12; 22:14).\nChrist Himself stated clearly that He did not come to destroy the law, but to show how to fulfill it\u2014to keep it in its entirety (Matthew 5:17-20). He then goes on to demonstrate the intent, or spirit, behind some of the laws. James admonishes each to \"fulfill the royal law of liberty\"\u2014and there is no hint that he means we should individually \"do away\" with it!\nThe Old Covenant was \"ordained\" by angels (Acts 7:53; Hebrews 2:2; Acts 7:38; Psalm 68:17; I Corinthians 10:4). \"Ordained,\" diatageis (Strong's #1299), usually means \"to arrange,\" \"to dispose in order,\" and is commonly used with reference to the marshalling of an army. A similar word, diatagas (Strong's #1296), is used in Acts 7:53, where it is translated \"disposition.\" It properly means the \"constituting\" or \"arranging\" of an army; disposing it into ranks and proper divisions. Hence, it has been supposed to mean that the Covenant was given \"amidst\" the various ranks of angels being present to witness its transmission.\nDeuteronomy 33:2 also shows God with His \"holy myriads\"\u2014literally \"ten thousands of holiness.\" God was attended by a vast army of intelligent beings, witnessing the ratifying of the Old Covenant with Israel and helping with prescribing, ordering, and arranging the covenant.\nThe covenant was \"in the hand\" or \"under the control\" of a Mediator, one who intervenes between two parties, either as an interpreter, intercessor, or reconciler. In the New Testament, in all the places where it occurs, it is applied to Jesus Christ, the great Mediator between God and man (I Timothy 2:5; Hebrews 8:6; 9:15; 12:24).\nThis statement would have been a bombshell - and high heresy - to the average Jew of Paul's time, who would have had it in his mind that the people of Israel were the only children of God. Paul here is beginning to explain that physical lineage is not relevant where God's calling is concerned, because under the New Covenant only God can give the summons (John 6:44), and if He summons a Gentile, it is just as valid as if He gave it to an Israelite.\nThe faith of Jesus Christ is the important factor rather than heredity. This faith is also a part of what God gives (Ephesians 2:8) - again, only to those whom He chooses. But if God has given this living faith (James 2:20) to a man, that man is then a begotten - but not yet born - child of God. God is the real father, rather than Abraham, Isaac, or Jacob.\nIn making the New Covenant\u2014once we have proceeded through the process of repentance and baptism and have received God's Spirit, which baptizes us into Christ\u2014we are then Abraham's children. We become Abraham's descendants regardless of race or national origin. We become, therefore, part of the one Family into which God is drawing all of mankind, and we become heirs of the promises made to Abraham as part of the Abrahamic Covenant. All the Old Covenant did was bridge the gap from the time the Israelites were released from their bondage until the promised Seed came.\nHe is essentially asking, \"Do you understand the instruction contained in the following episode drawn from Genesis?\" Alternatively, \"Do you comprehend what is in the law and its application to a New Covenant Christian?\"\nThe births of Ishmael and Isaac are recorded in Genesis 16 and 21. Though this happened long before the Ten Commandments and the other laws were given through Moses, Paul refers to this portion of Scripture as the law! Obviously, Paul uses \"law\" to mean the entire Pentateuch or Torah (the first five books of the Bible), not just the Commandments. In Galatians 4:24, he specifically mentions the Old and New Covenants.\nHe gives us this example and then specifically tells us that what is seemingly a simple historical narrative is actually an allegory. In other words, as important as the story is in its effect on the continuation of the promises, it also has continuous application in certain spiritual circumstances. What at first seems only to be an interesting historical reference has a dual use. Much of the Old Testament fits this usage, providing us with valuable spiritual instruction through its examples.\nWebster's Dictionary defines allegory as \"to speak figuratively, a symbolic representation.\" Unger's Bible Dictionary defines it as expressing or explaining one thing under the image of another and showing a second and deeper meaning than would seem apparent. Again, it is similar to a parable.\nPaul\u2014addressing the New Testament church, which he calls \"the Israel of God\" (Galatians 6:16)\u2014shows that the Old Covenant points to and helps explain the New. He writes that Jerusalem is a figure, forerunner, type, and present-day symbol of the New Covenant and church today (see also Hebrews 12:22-23, Romans 9:1-8; I Peter 2:9). We can then read both the history and prophecy regarding Jerusalem, the physical capital of Israel, and apply much of it to the church, the spiritual \"Jerusalem, . . . mother of us all.\"\nThis makes this principle regarding Gentiles very specific. Not only were they \"without Christ\" before conversion, they were also aliens from Israel. Tying this together with Romans 9:4-5, they were also separated from the Covenant, were they not? Now, because of their conversion, they were near to the additional blessings that would come from being near to Israel. The inference is that they were no longer aliens.\nGentiles must become a part of Israel because that is with whom the New Covenant is being made (Hebrews 8:8)! Conversion, then, having access to God, putting on Christ, entering into the Covenant, having promises and hope, and being part of Israel, all go together in one package. God does not disrupt the patterns that He Himself established.\nNotice two important factors he links to hope in Ephesians 2:12. First, in the time before God called the Ephesian Gentiles into a relationship with Him, they were \"aliens from the commonwealth of Israel and strangers from the covenants of promise.\"\nThe commonwealth of Israel could be either the nation or the church because under the Old Covenant ancient Israel established a relationship with God, received a small measure of His promises, and possessed the hope of the Messiah. However, the primary meaning here is the church; those who have made the New Covenant with God are the Israel of God and a holy nation (Galatians 6:16; I Peter 2:9). The New Covenant contains God's confirmed promises\u2014confirmed in the life, death, and resurrection of the Messiah, Christ Jesus.\nBeing part of ancient Israel under the Old Covenant did not give a person access to many promises that would have given him reason to hope. The Old Covenant promised no forgiveness of sin, no access to God, no promise of the Holy Spirit, and no promise of eternal and everlasting life, all of which we have. We have continuing, never-ending hopes because the New Covenant ensures a continuous relationship. Our relationship necessarily involves the other part of Ephesians 2:12: Before our calling, we were also without God in the world. Our hope is not merely in the fact that we have made a covenant, but more importantly, with whom we made it.\nIn Hebrews 3:12, the apostle Paul reports of Israel's \"evil heart of unbelief,\" the fountain, the source, that gave birth to her irrational, erratic, unreliable spiritual and moral behavior. She could not be trusted to remain firm to her commitment to be faithful in keeping the commandments and thus God's way of life. Had the making of the covenant been a literal marriage between two humans, her conduct would have been as God called it, harlotry. However, this was an agreement between a holy, spiritual God and the human nation He chose.\nThough she transgressed every commandment in multiple ways, collectively, the spiritual sin through which her unfaithfulness is most frequently demonstrated is gross idolatry. Israel simply serves herself, following the whim of the moment, so that she might \"have fun.\" Her lack of belief grants her nature free rein to exhibit itself in the self-endowed liberty to follow the lust of her flesh, the lust of her eyes, and the pride of life. She rejects her divine Husband as her Ruler because she wants a king \"just like\" the other nations.\nExcept for the occasional times when Israel had good leadership, she conducted her affairs, whether personal, domestic, or international, in the Babylonian manner. Israel, despite her great advantages, became just another kingdom of this world. While God has remained faithful to His agreements and promises through the centuries, she has maintained a hypocritical \"God's people\" stance toward the world, palming herself off as a \"Christian nation.\"\nWith the founding of the church following Christ's resurrection, God's spiritual focus turned to the church. Having made the New Covenant with God, our charge now is to be faithful while living surrounded by Babylon the Great. Though it is literally physically impossible, we have the responsibility to come out of her, and we can come out spiritually by being faithful to God and His commandments. We must not fail as Israel did, for the stakes for us are much greater. The New Covenant is a better covenant than Israel made; it contains better promises, enabling us a much better opportunity to be faithful and grow. However, those greater advantages also render us more responsible than even Israel, God's only chosen nation, because the church of God is God's only chosen church.\nGod says through the apostle Paul in I Corinthians 10:13, \"No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it.\" God does not want to lose us. Yet, He is creating His holy, righteous character in us. For that to be done, He must put us through tests and, in a sense, take the risk that He will lose us in one of them. He also lets the leash out, as it were, little by little, increasing the intensity of the tests as years go by. In this way, we experience life together with Him.\nHerein is exposed the weakness of the Old Covenant. Romans 8:3 tells us that the law \"was weak through the flesh.\" The marriage covenant between God and Israel was entered into before the qualities necessary for a successful union were ever developed in the Israelites. God called the children of Israel out of Egypt, took them to Mount Sinai, and then He proposed to them. In three days, the marriage was entered into, and Israel became God's (see Exodus 19-24). It was a marriage doomed to divorce from the very beginning, illustrating that no person\u2014even one as great as God\u2014can create a successful marriage if the other party does not agree, refusing to walk with them or to conform to recognized standards. Despite God's lovingkindness and patience, Israel never trusted Him! That is what Hebrews 4:2 says.\nHowever, the New Covenant solves this problem! These matters will be ironed out before the covenant is completed, which will not happen until the Marriage Supper of the Lamb\u2014not until the children of God are resurrected. Then two who are \"on equal footing,\" let us say, will marry. They will have experienced life together over long periods of time and will have come to know and trust one another. They will know each other's actions and reactions\u2014the other's mind and heart\u2014and a trust will have been built that will enable the marriage to succeed.\nA vital principle to remember concerning the Old and New Covenants is that what did not originate with the Old Covenant did not die with it. The gist of the argument in Hebrews 7 is that, since the Levitical priesthood has no authority under the New Covenant, the ritual laws pertaining to the priesthood are no longer valid. The priesthood has been conferred on Christ, now our High Priest \"according to the order of Melchizedek\" (Hebrews 6:20). This \"change of the law\"\u2014the ceremonial law of sacrifices, ritual washings, and other rites pertaining to the Tabernacle/Temple and priesthood\u2014applies only to the administration of tithing (verse 12). Since the tithing law predates the Levitical priesthood, and is thus still in force, tithes are now to be given to Jesus Christ, our High Priest, for use by the church. The church is commissioned to preach the gospel free of charge. The tithe pays for this important responsibility.\nThe principle of supporting the ministers of God's work is still in force in the New Testament church (Matthew 10:8-10; 24:14; 28:19-20; Mark 16:15; I Corinthians 9:13-14).\nIn verses 8-12, Paul quotes from Jeremiah 31:31-34. The writer begins by telling us that God found fault with the men of old, and this leads to the quotation from Jeremiah 31 in Hebrews 8:8.\nFrom the failures of the past, Jeremiah turned his vision to the future. There are four significant things prophesied by Jeremiah and quoted by Paul about the new covenant in verses 10-12:\nFirst, the New Covenant is inward and dynamic: It is written on the hearts and minds of the people. A shortcoming of the Old had been its outwardness. It had divinely given laws, but it was written on tablets of stone. Jeremiah looked for a time when people would not simply obey an external code but would be so transformed that God's own laws would be written in their inmost beings.\nSecond, there is a close relationship between the God who will be \"their God\" and the people, he says, who will be \"My people.\" The change from the Old Covenant to the New Covenant is that while the formula of the covenant remains the same from age to age, it is capable of being filled with fresh meaning to a point where it can be described as a \"new\" covenant. \"I will be your God\" acquires fuller meaning with every further revelation of the character of God.\nThird, all who enter it will have knowledge of God. There will be no need for a person to instruct his neighbor. The word rendered neighbor in verse 11 means \"citizen,\" and thus a \"fellow-citizen.\" Jeremiah moves from the wider relationship in the community to the narrower relationship in the family, saying that in neither case will there be a need to exhort anyone to know God because everyone will know Him.\nThis does not mean that under the conditions of the New Covenant there will be no place for a teacher. There will always be the need for those who have advanced in the Christian way to pass on to others the benefit of their knowledge. Rather, the meaning is that the knowledge of God will not be confined to a privileged few (as with the priesthood of ancient Israel). All those under the New Covenant will have their own intimate and personal knowledge of their God.\nFourth, under the New Covenant, sins are forgiven. Following repentance of sins and acceptance of the sacrifice of Jesus Christ, sins are forgiven. The superior sacrifice of Christ is offered once and for all, paying the penalty of sin for those who repent.\nJesus is the Mediator of a better covenant, which is established upon better promises. It was not established upon law changes but upon better promises. Some changes of terms were made, but the focus is on changes in the promises. Why were the promises changed? Being in context with \"for if that first covenant had been faultless\" and \"finding fault with them,\" the changes had something to do with the fault, and the fault was with them. Them is a plural reference to the multitude of people who anciently made the Old Covenant with God.\nThere indeed was a fault: \"finding fault with them.\" Them is a plural pronoun, so it cannot possibly refer to the singular noun covenant. It would have to have read \"for finding fault with it.\" God's Word is telling us\u2014not completely yet\u2014that the fault was with a plural them.\nThe word \"new\" is translated from the Greek word kaine. This is interesting because, while it does mean \"new\" in terms of time, the emphasis in the use of the word, when compared to something of the same kind, in this case, covenants, is on quality - not time. Hence, the emphasis in the use of kaine is on this covenant being better rather than being newer.\nIn Jesus' Parable of the Old and New Wineskins, kaine also appears. Using this understanding of kaine, the difference between the wineskins is not necessarily age (though that is implied) but quality. One wineskin is dried and cracked, while the other is supple and resilient. Though it may also be newer, it is decidedly better.\nPutting this into a modern context, we can make a comparison between a 1910 automobile and a 1995 automobile. The 1995 automobile is a continuation of the same general kind as the 1910 automobile. Both have the same necessary parts: engine, wheels, steering wheel, seats, transmission, brakes, lights, and a nut behind the wheel. But the 1995 model has made the 1910 model obsolete as a viable mode of transportation.\nSo it is in the comparison between the Old Covenant and the New. Both have the same necessary parts, so that they may be considered of the same \"kind,\" but the New Covenant is so much better and has so much more going for it that it has made the Old one obsolete.\nIs there a difference between a testament and a covenant? The word \"testament\" does not even appear in English translations of the Old Testament, but it appears thirteen times in the New Testament. The Greek word is quite interesting because it does not even mean \"covenant\" as we think of it. In fact, researchers have been able to find only one usage outside of the Bible - in classical Greek - in which this word is used in the same way that the English and the Hebrew words are. The Greek word is diatheke, and it is the equivalent of our English word \"testament\" or \"will\" - not \"covenant.\"\nA covenant is an agreement between two parties. The emphasis in on the words \"agreement\" and \"parties.\" However, a diatheke is a testament or will. As in English, it is a unilateral - a one-sided - declaration of the disposition of property that a person makes in anticipation of his death. Before we die, we usually draw up a declaration of what we want done with our property, and most people do not consult with the people they want to leave their possessions to. It is usually a private matter.\nPaul used this singular word - diatheke - where two different words normally would have been used. The interesting thing is that the Greeks have a word for a covenant, suntheke, \"a bilateral agreement,\" but the apostle did not use it.\nThe use of diatheke - which seemingly does not fit - has given the translators great difficulty trying to determine when Paul meant \"covenant\" and when he meant \"will\" or \"testament.\" Why did he even do this when he could have used suntheke? The overall reason is very encouraging. Paul wanted to emphasize how much God has done unilaterally - that is, that He took upon Himself to do without consulting with others involved in the covenant - to tip the scales drastically in our favor for the purpose of our keeping the covenant and making it into His Kingdom.\nFor instance, \"God so loved the world that He gave\" Jesus Christ in our stead! It was a completely voluntary act on His part. God gives us grace and forgives our sins, and we are justified on the basis of that sacrifice and on the declaration of our faith and repentance. God gives us access to Him in prayer, again on the basis of the work of Jesus Christ. God gives us the very faith that saves. God gives us His Spirit, which is a downpayment of eternal life and empowers us to keep His laws. God gives us gifts, by that same Spirit, to serve Him and the church. He promises never to give us a trial that is too great - which translates into Him giving personal attention to each of His children! He promises never to forsake us and to complete the work that He has begun in us.\nNow, brethren, some of these - in a very limited form - appear in the Old Covenant. But it is no wonder that Paul wanted to emphasize better rather than \"new.\" The Old Covenant (because of what God has unilaterally done) is but a pale shadow of the new (covenant) in terms of what God is working out. It is nothing more than a pale shadow of the promises and of the hope that is derived by those of us who understand the New Covenant's terms.\nTo the unconverted who read the Bible - who look into these things - these terms are so enticing that it lures them into saying that there is nothing that we have to do. Some will go that far! They will say that it has all been done for us. They can read the terms, but they reach the wrong conclusion. It leads people to say, \"There is no law,\" and \"You don't have to keep the Sabbath. It's just ceremonial.\" However, the truth is that it is so one-sided, so much to our benefit, that it leaves us without excuse for failure to keep the terms - and those terms include lawkeeping.\nThe New Covenant will be made with Israel and with Judah\u2014without any mention of the Gentiles. Yet, other areas of the Bible contains a great deal about the Gentiles\u2014so much that Jesus Himself says that we were entering into the \"times of the Gentiles.\" Paul's ministry was to the Gentiles, so the Gentiles are certainly a part of the New Covenant. But in the discussion of the New Covenant in Hebrews 8, the New Covenant is made with Israel and Judah.\nJustification and sanctification are both essential to God's purposes regarding salvation. However, most are far more familiar with justification.\nSome believe that justification preserves one's salvation through to the resurrection. This cannot possibly be so, though, because that would mean that justification is salvation. In Hebrews 6:1, this same author writes, \"Let us go on to perfection.\" At the time one is justified, the perfection or maturity of which he writes is still future.\nSanctification is the inward spiritual transformation that Jesus Christ, as our High Priest, works in a convert by His Holy Spirit following justification. I Corinthians 1:30 informs us that Christ is not only our righteousness but also our sanctification. Hebrews 2:11 names Him as \"He who sanctifies,\" and in the same verse, His brethren are called \"those who are being sanctified.\" During Jesus' prayer in John 17:19, He says, \"And for their sakes I sanctify Myself, that they also [the converts] may be sanctified by the truth.\" Ephesians 5:26-27 adds, \". . . that He might sanctify and cleanse her with the washing of water by the word, that He might present her to Himself a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that she should be holy and without blemish.\"\nIf words mean anything, these verses\u2014and there are many more\u2014teach us that Jesus Christ undertakes the sanctification of His brothers and sisters no less than He does their justification.\nHebrews 10:14 is apt to be misunderstood. Perhaps this illustration may help: Imagine an observer, who, looking to his left, sees a perfect work\u2014Christ's sacrificial offering for our justification\u2014already completed in the past. On his right, he sees an ongoing continuous process\u2014our sanctification\u2014stretching off into the future. The author of Hebrews is showing that Christ's one offering is so efficacious that nothing can be added to it. It will provide a solid foundation for the continuing process of godly character growth to holiness for all mankind for all time.\nIn the Old Testament, the words translated as \"sanctify\" and \"holy\" are derived from the same Hebrew root, and in the New Testament, they come from the same Greek root. In both languages, they are used in essentially the same way, meaning \"to be made or declared clean or purified.\" Because of the sense of cleanliness, both imply being different from others of their kind that are not holy, and thus they are separated or set apart from what is common. One author suggests that the cleanliness of something holy makes it \"a cut above.\"\nJustification is essentially a legal operation on God's part by accounting Christ's righteousness to us because of faith on our part. Romans 4:1-5 confirms this:\nWhat then shall we say that Abraham our father has found according to the flesh? For if Abraham was justified by works, he has something of which to boast, but not before God. For what does the Scripture say? \"Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.\" Now to him who works, the wages are not counted as grace but as debt. But to him who does not work but believes on Him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is accounted for righteousness.\nNo works on our part are acceptable for justification. There is no way a sinner can \"make up\" for his sins. By contrast, we are deeply involved in the sanctification process, where works are very important. Ephesians 2:10 from the Amplified Bible clearly states our responsibility following conversion:\nFor we are God's [own] handiwork (His workmanship), recreated in Christ Jesus, [born anew] that we may do those good works which God predestined (planned beforehand) for us [taking paths which He prepared ahead of time], that we should walk in them [living the good life which He prearranged and made ready for us to live].\nAfter being justified, we are required to live obediently, to submit to God in faith, glorifying God by overcoming Satan, the world, and human nature. Sanctification is normally the longest and most difficult aspect of salvation. Real challenges, sometimes very difficult ones, abound within it if we are to remain faithful to God, the New Covenant, and His purpose.\nListen! Hear Him! Believe what He says!\nThe author of Hebrews has presented us with the facts that Christ is greater than angels, greater than Moses and greater than Aaron; that the New Covenant is superior in every way to the Old Covenant. He addresses this presentation to Christians who stand, not before a physical mountain in the Sinai, but a spiritual Mount Zion in heaven. Nevertheless, we still have the potential to refuse to hear, even as our spiritual ancestors who had just come out of Egypt did not hear. Now, they knew\u2014they knew\u2014that it was the voice of God that they heard, and they refused to hear because they believed they could not endure what He commanded!\nDo we see the parallel?\nIt is possible for Christians to cherish their own will\u2014which they know to be diametrically opposed to the will and purpose of God\u2014and to stick to their own desires, thus stifling the voice of the Almighty God Himself! And thus, we can wrench ourselves away from the voice because we feel uncomfortable going against our resolve.\nWhen God separated Abraham and his family from his family and his country, and when God separated Israel from Egypt, their sanctification was also geographical. He literally moved them from one place on earth to another. His purpose was to establish a new community of people all involved in the same purpose.\nWith the church, our separation is not geographical but spiritual, moral, and ethical, while still living geographically within the system that we were born into. We must become separated from the way, from the manner, from the lifestyle, from the attitudes of the system that we were born into and moved (motivated) to make God's way, His manner, His system, His attitudes ours. That is how we \"come out\" of Babylon.\nAbraham and Israel literally moved geographically. Some of us may move geographically, but that is not really what God has in mind. He desires a spiritual, moral, ethical, and attitudinal departure from our friends, neighbors, family, the gang we ran with, or whatever. We are called to be different.\nThe concept of God's separating, making holy, and establishing a new community, is not lost. The community aspect is merely reserved until a later time. Under the New Covenant, the community is the Kingdom of God. It is a goal we are moving toward as He prepares His set-apart people to enter that new community.\nSo where are we headed? To the Kingdom of God. Are we headed there geographically? No. We stay right where we are, but we still \"come out\" of Babylon in a spiritual sense. We are still sanctified by a change of attitude, of practice, and of conduct. Instead of immoral, we become moral. Instead of being unethical, we become ethical. Instead of being spiritually anti-God as Satan is, we become spiritual in the way God is spiritual.\nThat is how we \"come out.\" We are set apart for that purpose. At this time, geography has little or no part in the sanctifcation of the overwhelming majority of God's people.\nSanctification and Holiness (Part 1)",

And Elisha said, As Yahweh lives, and as your soul lives, I will not leave you. So they went down to Beth-el.\n3 And the sons of the prophets who were at Beth-el came forth to Elisha, and said to him, Do you know that Yahweh will take away your master from your head today? And he said, Yes, I know it; hold your{+} peace.\n4 And Elijah said to him, Elisha, tarry here, I pray you; for Yahweh has sent me to Jericho. And he said, As Yahweh lives, and as your soul lives, I will not leave you. So they came to Jericho.\n5 And the sons of the prophets who were at Jericho came near to Elisha, and said to him, Do you know that Yahweh will take away your master from your head today? And he answered, Yes, I know it; hold your{+} peace.\n6 And Elijah said to him, Tarry here, I pray you; for Yahweh has sent me to the Jordan. And he said, As Yahweh lives, and as your soul lives, I will not leave you. And both of them went on.\n7 And fifty men of the sons of the prophets went, and stood across from them far off: and both of them stood by the Jordan.\n8 And Elijah took his mantle, and wrapped it together, and struck the waters, and they were divided here and there, so that both of them went over on dry ground.\n9 And it came to pass, when they were gone over, that Elijah said to Elisha, Ask what I will do for you, before I am taken from you. And Elisha said, I pray you, let a double portion of your spirit be on me.\n10 And he said, You have asked a hard thing: [nevertheless], if you see me when I am taken from you, it will be so to you; but if not, it will not be so.\n11 And it came to pass, as they still went on, and talked, that, look, [there appeared] a chariot of fire, and horses of fire, which separated them both apart; and Elijah went up by a whirlwind into heaven.\n12 And Elisha saw it, and he cried, My father, my father, the chariots of Israel and its horsemen! And he saw him no more: and he took hold of his own clothes, and rent them in two pieces.\n13 He took up also the mantle of Elijah that fell from him, and went back, and stood by the bank of the Jordan.\n14 And he took the mantle of Elijah that fell from him, and struck the waters, and said, Where is Yahweh, the God of Elijah, even he? And when he had struck the waters, they were divided here and there; and Elisha went over.\n15 And when the sons of the prophets who were at Jericho across from him saw him, they said, The spirit of Elijah rests on Elisha. And they came to meet him, and bowed themselves to the ground before him.\n16 And they said to him, Look now, there are with your slaves fifty strong men; let them go, we pray you, and seek your master, in case the Spirit of Yahweh has taken him up, and cast him on some mountain, or into some valley. And he said, You{+} will not send.\n17 And when they urged him until he was ashamed, he said, Send. They sent therefore fifty men; and they sought three days, but did not find him.\n18 And they came back to him, while he tarried at Jericho; and he said to them, Didn't I say to you{+}, Don't go?\n19 And the men of the city said to Elisha, Look, we pray you, the situation of this city is pleasant, as my lord sees: but the water is bad, and the land miscarries.\n20 And he said, Bring me a new cruse, and put salt in it. And they brought it to him.\n21 And he went forth to the spring of the waters, and cast salt in it, and said, Thus says Yahweh, I have healed these waters; there will not be from there anymore death or miscarrying.\n22 So the waters were healed to this day, according to the word of Elisha which he spoke.\n23 And he went up from there to Beth-el; and as he was going up by the way, there came forth young lads out of the city, and mocked him, and said to him, Go up, you baldhead; go up, you baldhead.\n24 And he looked behind him and saw them, and cursed them in the name of Yahweh. And there came forth two she-bears out of the forest, and tore forty and two lads of them.\n25 And he went from there to mount Carmel, and from there he returned to Samaria.",

I have been playing this game on facebook for some time and am delighted to be able to have it for my own. I despise adventure games and have been so disappointed over the years with hidden object games morphing (see what I did there?) into adventure games- click,click,walk,walk. So this is a hidden object game in which one follows directions and finds hidden objects! One can even learn a little history while doing so. What's not to like here?\nRated 5 out of 5 by Amythist from It's like Found with historical big shots I thought this game was going to be really bleh from the reviews, but I downloaded the demo anyway to see for myself and was very pleasantly surprised. The game is almost identical to the play for free game Found, which I for one adored and was thoroughly addicted to until one day I had no more quests. There really is always something more to do in these types of games and there is always a variety and if you are at all like me, you'll enjoy the challenge of achieving the rewards, 'exchanging' the collection items - which basically means you combine a few little things into one big thing, and in general wasting an entire Saturday goofing with a game. It truly is addicting\nRated 5 out of 5 by Viki_Muze from Good hidden object game Being a fan of hidden object and adventure games, I was glad to install and play this game. Yes, it looks like free2play, but with unlimited possibility to discover locations and play as much as you want. So, it's even better to pay only on?e, but play for a while. The game seems long enough for the money, though I haven't completed it yet. I also liked game sounds and music, which are relaxing and don't interfere with the gameplay. Hidden objects aren't small in size, so you can easily find them. There is a good map and an extensive list of quests to complete. And as you go through the storyline, the number of current quests increases, and you can complete few at once, so I wasn't bored. There also are a lot of mini-games, like match 3, bubble shooter and snooker, but they are optional. You can play them or not, the choice it's up to you. Actually, I switch to these games when I'm tired of searching for hidden objects. Summing up, I'd recommend this game for those who like hidden objects and playing mini-games.\nRated 4 out of 5 by TeachumWell from A Puzzle, a Mystery, or...What? This game has some of lots of things. HO scenes, match 3, riddles, odd characters, etc. It's a...well, I'm not too sure what it's actually trying to be, but somehow it's addictive. You'll want to try just one more search, one more m3 and see if you can fill another Collection. But I couldn't give 5 stars because of the confusion (at least in my mind) about the story and the actual goal. But I suggest you try it and see if your puzzle and curiousity sense is activated by the various tasks and enigmas presented. The toughest puzzle of all? What's really goin' on here!\nRated 3 out of 5 by Suelovesgames from Groundhog Day This game is a combination of timed hidden object game, match 3 and casino. You play the hidden objects scenes again and again, relentlessly. The match 3 has a limit. There are two types of match 3 game, a timed and an untimed. I really like the untimed match 3 game, it has good graphics and effects. The problem with the game is, there is no clearly defining ultimate goal. It also doesn't appear to end (just like free to play games). If you go into this knowing that it doesn't appear to have an ending and that sits well with you, then you may survive. and enjoy it for what it is. I've been playing it on and off now for six months, am on Level 28, are about a week away from completing the Match 3 (untimed) and wonder what will happen after that, if anything. I was waiting to finish the game before I did a review, but decided that the world might end before that. A mindless, repetitive and never ending groundhog day. On the other hand, you can dip in and out when you like, as long as you don't take it too seriously. Iif you are resigned to the idea that you may never complete it, then, there is possible enjoyment to be had. I like the historical figures and the things they say, some inspiring, some funny and you sort of go on this never ending journey with them.\nRated 3 out of 5 by dpollod from What the! The synopsis of the game peaked my interest but the reviews made me wonder what was this game about. I downloaded the demo and tried to play it. I had absolutely no idea what the objectives were or what all of the screens coming up showing collections, anomalies and how to fix them, things to buy, what I was earning in each scene were about. I could not help myself and bought the game because I needed to see if I could work it out. I still haven't but I am going to continue to try and find out. It is as if the developers had a jumble of ideas and just poured them out on this game with no logic to it at all. You never really know where you are up to or what you should do next. It is a conundrum!!!!\nRated 3 out of 5 by sd8557 from The Never Ending Game My first clue that this was not an ordinary HOG was that it came with absolutely no \"read me\" files - you're just supposed to know how to play it. I've been playing it for about 6 months now and I still don't know how close to the end I am. I think I still have a couple of places to go to but can't figure how how I'm supposed to get to them.\nRated 3 out of 5 by westcoastkasey from Best Game so far i played! The game is very fun to play. I like this better then: Free Witch, Gummy game, Antiques road etc. I prefer this game.\nRated 3 out of 5 by slynsand from Could have been a good game! Instead, it was a really average game with a confused storyline with no direction. Despite the reviews I thought I would try it, I gave up half way through the demo! It just seemed to be jumping from here . . . to there . . . back to here and on and on and on. The graphics were very nice though :)\nRated 3 out of 5 by ldzach02 from sad game Search for same items in same locations over & over again.\nTime Gap Reviews - page 2",

W. Gregory\nWriting - Image - Material, by Dr Michela Luiselli.\nBack to 'connections'\nBy Dr Nicola J Adderley\nScarab Amulets: Petitions for Safety and Preservation\nAmong the diverse repertoire of ancient Egyptian amulets, the most common form is that of the scarab. Amulets of this type first appeared during the Sixth Dynasty and remained in use until the Gr\u00e6co-Roman Period, although amulets in the form of beetles are attested as early as the First Dynasty.1 A wide variety of materials were used in their production, ranging from metal to animal products such as bone and beeswax,2 although various types of stone were the most common.\nThe prominence of the scarab as a form of amulet arose from its association with creation, new life and regeneration, and consequently resurrection and rebirth; these associations developed from the misapprehension that the beetles hatched spontaneously from balls of dung without the need for sexual reproduction. In addition, observation of the beetle assiduously rolling a ball of dung along the ground inspired the belief that the daily journey of the sun-disc across the sky was facilitated by the god Khepri in the form of a giant dung beetle, while the renewal of the sun each morning, after fading and disappearing the evening before, evinced the scarab's capacity for regeneration.3\nAs the scarab symbolised new life and regeneration, it could serve as an amulet without the need for additional inscription or decoration: the image of the scarab itself was sufficient to magically invoke protection for the bearer, perhaps from the god Khepri or even the sun god Re, of whom Khepri was one manifestation. Examples of this undecorated type in the Eton Myers Collection include ECM897, ECM905 and ECM1124, each measuring less than 2 cm in length and made of red carnelian, beeswax and obsidian respectively.4 Often, however, the underside of the scarab was decorated with hieroglyphs, figures of deities, animals, plants or patterns. Many such inscribed or decorated scarabs were also used as seals, but the majority functioned primarily as protective amulets, as is demonstrated in part by the presence of a piercing, allowing them to be worn by the owner on a string or wire.\nScarabs decorated with the name or image of a deity, or expressions of praise, may have been intended as a means of obtaining protection from the deity/deities depicted: the texts and representations communicated reverence for particular gods whilst simultaneously invoking their protection. An example of this type of scarab is ECM892 (figure 1), which bears a depiction of Seth (a figure with the head of the Seth-animal) on the left and a uraeus with solar disc on the right; the scarab probably dates to the Ramessid Period, at which time veneration of the god Seth was at its peak.5 In this case, the favour and attention of not only Seth but perhaps also Re (the sun disc) and Wadjet (the uraeus) may have been sought to ensure the welfare and safekeeping of the owner, all three being prominent deities in Lower Egypt. Alternatively, the uraeus may simply be representative of divinity in a more general sense, or perhaps kingship. Additionally, the uraeus could offer protection against snake bites.6\nWhile the above example includes only a possible reference to kingship, other examples bear explicit mention of the king, such as ECM1644, a blue glazed steatite scarab inscribed with the nomen of Amenhotep III, Amenhotep Heqawaset ('Amenhotep, ruler of Thebes').7 Scarabs with such inscriptions may have been produced as celebrations of kingship or as expressions of loyalty to, or veneration of, the king; they nevertheless retained their amuletic properties: not only the scarab form, but also the name or representation of the king, the earthly embodiment of divinity, imbued the amulet with protective properties. Alternatively, or additionally, they may have summoned protection for the owner from the gods depicted within the name of the king, in this case, Amun.\nJust as the image of the uraeus could simultaneously invoke a deity whilst also protecting against venomous snakes, depictions of other animals, such as the hippopotamus or the crocodile, could also serve a dual purpose, both summoning the guardianship of the deities with which the animals were associated and also performing an apotropaic function, warding off dangerous creatures. Many of the animals which appear were also associated with fecundity and, like the scarab, regeneration. Indeed, it was possible, as is the case with scaraboids, to entirely substitute such animals in place of the scarab form and, rather than simply decorate the base of a scarab with images of fauna, to replace the back of the scarab beetle with a three-dimensional carving of some other animal. Examples include ECM746 and ECM1726, made of blue faience and blue glazed steatite respectively, both of which take the form of a frog.8 Similarly, plants associated with regeneration, such as the lotus,9 are a common motif on scarabs and scaraboids, including, for example, ECM871, a blue-green glazed steatite cowroid10 carved with a depiction of a lotus plant beneath hieroglyphs reading 'every day', also incorporating the name of the god Re.11\nAs a symbol of resurrection and rebirth, the scarab became associated with the transition of the deceased from life to an existence as an akh spirit in the afterlife. Consequently, scarabs were also viewed as appropriate amulets with which to adorn the dead and numerous scarab amulets have been excavated in tombs. Many of these are indistinguishable from the small amulets worn by the living; indeed, the majority of the examples discussed above could have been used by either the living or the dead. It is also likely that many individuals were buried with scarabs which they had worn during their lives: the scarab served equally well as protection for the living and the dead, and also ensured that the deceased would be reborn in the netherworld. However, several types of scarab developed for use exclusively within a funerary context: heart scarabs \u2013 large scarabs which were often inscribed and which were placed on the breast of the deceased (discussed below); funerary scarabs \u2013 large, uninscribed scarabs with separate outstretched wings which were sewn into mummy wrappings from the Twenty-fifth Dynasty;12 and small, uninscribed scarabs with legs carved in relief on the underside which are found sewn into mummy wrappings of the Twenty-sixth Dynasty onwards; ECM1124 is an example of this latter type.\nHeart Scarabs and the Rebirth of the Deceased\nHeart scarabs were placed on the chest of the mummified body, either under or on the mummy wrappings. The earliest known examples date to the Thirteenth Dynasty and they remained in use until the Roman Period.13 The purpose of these scarabs was to ensure a smooth transition for the deceased into the afterlife.\nMany heart scarabs were inscribed with all or, more commonly, part of Chapter 30B of the Book of the Dead, a spell commanding the heart not to act against the deceased during the weighing of the heart \u2013 the judgement of the deceased in the afterlife, as depicted in Chapter 125 of the Book of the Dead and its accompanying vignettes. During this interrogation, the heart of the deceased was weighed against maat; if the scales balanced, the individual was declared 'justified' or 'true of voice' and permitted into the netherworld; if, however, they were found wanting before the gods of the tribunal, their heart would be devoured by Ammut, preventing entry into the afterlife and causing them to experience the second death.14 Part of Chapter 30B is inscribed on the base of ECM1606, a heart scarab of pale blue faience dating to the Twenty-first or Twenty-second Dynasty, probably from Thebes15 (see figures 2-4):\nMy heart of my mother, my heart of my mother, my heart of my form(s)! Do not be hostile (before) the Keeper (of the Balance)! Do not raise up a witness16 (against) the Osiris, the mistress of the house, the Chantress of Amun-Re, King of the God(s), Nes[...], true of voice.\nThe spell takes the form of a plea, imploring the heart, believed to hold a record of a person's life, not to reveal anything during the judgement which could jeopardise the deceased's hopes of entering the afterlife as an akh spirit. This particular heart scarab bears a relatively short extract from Chapter 30B; others contain more lengthy lists of exhortations, also instructing the heart not to 'oppose' the deceased 'before the tribunal' or 'tell lies about' him 'in the presence of the god',17 although presumably a lie would be preferred in favour of revealing crimes or transgressions!\nWhile Chapter 30B is the text which appears most commonly on heart scarabs, Chapter 30A (also intended as a means of preventing the heart from speaking against the deceased), or, less frequently, Chapters 26, 27 and 29B (spells to ensure the heart remained with its owner after death and that the deceased was able to enter the netherworld without restraint) were also used.18 Alternatively, heart scarabs could be left uninscribed. The employment of such artefacts as heart scarabs can usually be inferred from their size, material and often the absence of any piercing; for instance, ECM1131 (figure 5) can be identified as a heart scarab as it is unpierced, too large to be worn as an amulet,19 and made of a greenish-brown stone with gold gilding, resembling the materials stipulated for the manufacture of heart scarabs in the rubric to Chapter 30B.20 Uninscribed heart scarabs served the same purpose as those bearing excerpts from Chapters 30A and 30B of the Book of the Dead: they functioned as a talisman preventing the heart of the deceased from speaking out against him during his judgement by the gods of the tribunal. Furthermore, the form of the scarab itself, representing new life and renewal, as well as being the hieroglyph for 'existing' or 'coming into being', helped to magically ensure the deceased would be successfully reborn in the afterlife.\nEntreaties to the Gods, Missives to the Heart\nScarabs bear a range of messages which can be broadly divided into two types: those that were intended to convey piety and appeals to divine beings, and those which were intended to serve as a directive to the heart. Of the former, some are simply a general request or invocation for preservation and protection, addressed to any god or magical entity that might be able and willing to assist; others communicate the owner's devotion to one or more specific gods or kings whilst soliciting their favour and guardianship. Scarabs utilised in burial contexts, in addition to retaining their protective function, also served to aid the deceased in undergoing his or her transformation into an akh spirit in the realm of the dead. In many cases, this role was implicit in the scarab form, with its inherent associations of new life, resurrection and existence. Heart scarabs, however, developed this aspect further: they also functioned as a missive to the heart, either literally (if inscribed with Chapter 30B of the Book of the Dead) or implicitly (if left uninscribed), imploring and impelling the heart not to betray the deceased in their judgement in the afterlife, so that they might continue to exist after death.\nAs with most aspects of Egyptian religion, an ongoing development of the scarabs can be seen over time: the earliest examples are crude amulets dating to the Sixth Dynasty; towards the end of the First Intermediate Period, the scarab form became more naturalistic and the range of motifs used on the base expanded, as it continued to do through subsequent periods; during the Middle Kingdom, heart scarabs first came into use, and then later, in the Twenty-fifth Dynasty and the Saite Period, other types of funerary scarab developed. Their primary purpose, however, remained essentially unchanged and the employment of scarabs as one of the many and diverse means of inducing the gods to intervene on behalf of their devotees, alive or dead, continued until the Roman Period.\n1. Andrews 1994: 11 fig. 5i and 50-51; Hornung and Staehelin 1976: 13.\n2. For example, ECM 905 appears to be made of beeswax with traces of gold gilding also present; cf. the Eton Myers acquisition notes for this scarab.\n3. See Andrews 1994: 50-51 for further discussion of the behaviour of scarabs and its relationship with Egyptian mythology and funerary beliefs.\n4. ECM 897 measures 15 x 12 x 7mm; it is pierced longitudinally and, being made of carnelian, probably dates to the New Kingdom or perhaps later (cf. Hornung and Staehelin 1976: 22, which states that most examples of this material date to the Eighteenth Dynasty, and Andrews 1994: 50). ECM905 measures 13 x 10 x 6 mm; it is pierced longitudinally and is of unknown date. ECM1124 measures 17 x 14 x 8 mm; it has a transverse piercing and has detail of the legs and belly of the scarab carved on the underside; such scarabs were sewn into the mummy wrappings of the dead during the Twenty-sixth Dynasty and later (Andrews 1994: 59).\n5. The scarab is pierced longitudinally and measures approximately 24 x 18 x 9 mm. Comparable examples, probably also dating to the Ramessid Period, include Hornung and Staehelin 1976: 377 no. B 25 and Teeter and Wilfong 2003: 68 no. 92.\n6. See Hornung and Staehelin 1976: 134-135 for a discussion of uraei on scarabs.\n7. ECM1644 measures 18 x 12 x 10 mm and has a longitudinal piercing. ECM860 also bears a cartouche above a figure of Heh holding palm ribs in each hand; the cartouche is inscribed with the throne name of Tuthmosis III, Menkheperre, probably a cryptographic writing of Amun (cf. Hornung and Staehelin 1976: 60-63 with Abb. 9 and 175). The scarab is made of blue glazed steatite and measures 17 x 13 x 7 mm; it may date later than the reign of Tuthmosis III, as cartouches bearing his throne name remained in use until as late as the fourth century BCE (Hornung and Staehelin 1976: 60). For an example comparable to ECM860, see Hornung and Staehelin 1976: 374 no. B 9.\n8. ECM746 measures 16 x 8 x 10 mm; ECM1726 measures 15 x 11 x 9 mm. Both are pierced and have a flat, undecorated base.\n9. See Hornung and Staehelin 1976: 164.\n10. A cowroid is a scaraboid based on the form of a cowrie shell. This example has a lentoid shape with an undecorated upper surface.\n11. ECM871 measures 15 x 10 x 4 mm and has a longitudinal piercing.\n12. For a brief discussion of funerary scarabs with several examples, see Teeter and Wilfong 2003: 122 and 138-144.\n13. Andrews 1994: 56-57; Teeter and Wilfong 2003: 122.\n14. Cf. Taylor 2001: 38; Pinch 2002: 93 and 142.\n15. Spurr, Reeves and Quirke 2001: 44-45. The scarab measures approximately 57 x 39 x 23 mm.\n16. More commonly, this part of the spell reads 'do not stand up as a witness against' the deceased; see for example Hornung and Staehelin 1976: 371-372, nos. A 8-10 and Teeter and Wilfong 2003: 124-128, nos. 201-203.\n17. See, for example, Teeter and Wilfong 2003: 124-131 nos. 201-202 and 206; for translations of full versions of Chapter 30B, see Hornung and Staehelin 1976: 184-185 and Faulkner 1972: 27-28.\n18. Cf. Hornung and Staehelin 1976: 184-187 and Taylor 2001: 196.\n19. ECM1131 measures approximately 48 x 34 x 18 mm.\n20. The rubric to Chapter 30B of the Book of the Dead states that heart scarabs should ideally be made of nephrite, a green stone, and mounted in fine gold; see Faulkner 1972: 56. Other examples of uninscribed heart scarabs include Teeter and Wilfong 2003: 132-137 nos. 207 and 209-219.\nAndrews, C. 1994. Amulets of Ancient Egypt. London and Texas.\nFaulkner, R. O. 1972.

        "raw_content": "We are the Blue Star Mothers of America, Inc., New York Chapter #1. We are the Moms of the military. We are non-political, non-profit and non-sectarian. Our Chapter was by five Mothers back in 2004. We join over two hundred other chapters around the nation to carry out the mission statement of serving our deployed troops, our veterans and the families on the home front. We are located on the beautiful grounds of the Canandaigua, New York, Veterans Administration Hospital in an old white farmhouse that we have rehabbed into being The Blue Star Canteen.\nOur goal is to take care of our deployed soldiers with boxes full of a touch of home, cards and letters. If we get a special request from our troops, we attempt to fill it. New York # 1 is full of Mothers who are doing their best to make a difference while their child is deployed.\nWe operate on the theory that it is better to be occupied to make the time pass faster than to sit around and worry. We support each other and are there when someone needs help surviving another day. We have had Mothers with two or three children deployed. We have Mothers who have, in addition to their own child deployed, nephews and nieces also deployed. We try to find things to do to promote the support of our military person.\nWe try to help the families they left behind by getting them the information about where to go if they have a problem. We support our veterans by giving them a place to come that is homelike and having a working garden for them. We help out by supplying clothing if a special outfit is needed by a veteran so that he, or she, can go on a job interview. We fundraise to try and help our wounded get back to a fairly normal life through treatment.\nThe benefits of being a Blue Star Mother are many. You are doing something useful to help our troops so far away. You give them support and remind them of why they are out there doing what they do. You are lending support to our veterans to show them the appreciation of what they gave to support our country.\nYou are showing a younger generation that it is okay to be patriotic and supportive because, as they say, Freedom is not Free. You have to work at keeping it and we feel that we do exactly that. It may seem like \"only\" a garage sale or another spaghetti dinner or bake sale but that helps to raise awareness for our troops no matter where they are.\nYou also have other mothers who need your support. For some, it means knowing that others are going through the same thing that you are. No matter how kind family and friends try to be, they cannot understand the hours spent waiting while the troops are under a communications black out, they do not know the joy of hearing a voice on a cell phone saying \"Hey, Ma.\" right in the middle of Church. We know. Some of us have children who are career military, plus have been military wives. You can be assured that we understand.\nJoin us and meet dear friends that will last you a life time, sisters who will be there no matter what befalls you, women who understand when you cry over something simple like the national anthem. Come and visit us when we have our meetings every second Saturday from 9-11 at Veterans Park on Routes 5 and 20 in Bloomfield. We meet from September through June. We are also at the Canteen from 4-7 on Wednesdays. Every Mother with a child in the service is a Blue Star Mother. Come join our organization and be part of a support network that doesn't know the meaning of the phrase \"Can't be done.\" Oh, yes, it can! By the way, anyone with an interest may join as an Associate Member.\nYou may also view our National Website here.\nThe Blue Star Canteen\nGary Sinise met with BSMNY#1 after the Lt. Dan Band performance at Fallsview Casino. The Lt. Dan Band covers everything from Springsteen to Linkin Park, from Aretha to Hendrix. There's something for everyone, and each show highlights the musical diversity of the band, as well as the passion and energy each member brings to the stage. Whether they're performing for troops overseas or a local club crowd, the goal is to have fun and rock the house! The Name \"Lieutenant Dan\" is the character Gary portrayed in the 1994 film Forrest Gump, a role for which he earned an Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actor. As Gary began visiting troops around the world, people (even little kids) who didn't know him as Gary Sinise, the actor, would recognize him as \"Lt. Dan\". Those in the military also seem to identify strongly with the character. And so the name for his group was an easy choice: Lt. Dan Band!",

The reason for this would be to provide evidence to courts in order to settle any disputed insurance claims in the event of an accident. In fact, SmartWitness believes it should be compulsory by law.\nIf you\u2019re thinking of plugging in to the technological revolution or the burgeoning electric car market, be sure to check you have adequate levels of insurance to cover your new stock. As well as your general motor trade insurance, you may also want to consider upgrading to a combined motor trade insurance policy, which protects the facilities as well as the contents of your site.\nPaul Singh, the chief executive of SmartWitness said of his company\u2019s research: \"Around 40 per cent of all motor insurance claims are disputed, but how do you resolve a dispute when you can only hear evidence from one of the drivers involved?\n\"The simplest way to eliminate the problem is to make camera technology compulsory in all autonomous vehicles. This will provide court admissible proof in the event of an accident and help to alleviate motorists' fears about the introduction of driverless cars.\n\"It is fantastic that the government is embracing this new technology and powering forward, but proper safeguards need to be put in place to protect all motorists.\"",

In this first comprehensive history of graphic representations of time, authors Daniel Rosenberg and Anthony Grafton have crafted a lively history featuring fanciful characters and unexpected twists and turns. From medieval manuscripts to websites, Cartographies of Time features a wide variety of timelines that in their own unique ways, curving, crossing, branching, defy conventional thinking about the form. A fifty-four-foot-long timeline from 1753 is mounted on a scroll and encased in a protective box. Another timeline uses the different parts of the human body to show the genealogies of Jesus Christ and the rulers of Saxony. Ladders created by missionaries in eighteenth-century Oregon illustrate Bible stories in a vertical format to convert Native Americans. Also included is the April 1912 Marconi North Atlantic Communication chart, which tracked ships, including the Titanic, at points in time rather than by their geographic location, alongside little-known works by famous figures, including a historical chronology by the mapmaker Gerardus Mercator and a chronological board game patented by Mark Twain. Presented in a lavishly illustrated edition, Cartographies of Time is a revelation to anyone interested in the role visual forms have played in our evolving conception of history\nHistory, Nonfiction, Art and Architecture\nin Ted.com Recommended Reads\nin Art and Architecture",

        "raw_content": "A war against children\nThe founder of Save the Children, Eglantyne Jebb, once said \u201cEvery war is a war against children.\u201d\nFor those of you who don\u2019t know, Eglantyne is one of the original game-changers. In 1919 at age 35, she began handing out leaflets of an image with two children pictured on the front with the headline above it saying \u201cOur Blockade has caused this \u2013 millions of children starving to death\u201d. It was in response to the British post-war blockade of Germany and eastern Europe.\nUnfortunately Jebb was arrested, tried for her protest and was found guilty. However, the prosecuting counsel was so impressed with her that he offered to pay her 5 pound fine. This ladies, gentleman and fellow game-changers was the very first donation to the charity that she went on to found, Save the Children.\nI found this pretty inspirational, a young woman of her time standing up against all odds and building what has truly become an \u201cempire\u201d for protecting children\u2019s rights. You can\u2019t even begin to imagine the amount of courage and strength she would\u2019ve had to accomplish such heights.

        "raw_content": "Happy Fiscal New Year (with an Unhappy Obama Hangover)\nToday, October 1, is the first day of the 2012 fiscal year.\nAnd if you\u2019re wondering why America\u2019s economy seems to have a hangover (this cartoon is a perfect illustration), it\u2019s because politicians had a huge party with our money in FY2011.\nWe don\u2019t have final numbers for the fiscal year that just ended, but let\u2019s look at the CBO Monthly Budget Report, the CBO Economic and Budget Update, and the OMB Historical Tables, and see whether there\u2019s anything worth celebrating.\no The federal government spent about $3.6 trillion in FY2011, more money than any government has ever spent in a 12-month period in the history of the world.\no The FY2011 budget is nearly double the burden of federal spending just 10 years earlier, when federal outlays consumed \u201conly\u201d $1.86 trillion.\no The federal budget in FY2011 consumed about 24 percent of national output, up sharply compared to a spending burden in FY2001 of \u201cjust\u201d 18.2 percent of GDP.\no Defense spending is too high, and has increased by about $400 billion since 2001, but the vast majority of the additional spending is for domestic spending programs.\no Federal tax revenue in FY2011 will be about $2.25 trillion, an increase of 7-8 percent over FY2010 levels.\no Economic stagnation has affected tax revenues, which are lower than the $2.6 trillion level from FY2007.\no Federal receipts amount to about 15.3 percent of GDP, below the long-run average of 18 percent of GDP.\no The Congressional Budget Office does predict that revenues will rise above the 18-percent average \u2013 without any tax increases \u2013 by the end of the decade.\no Record levels of government spending, combined with low revenues caused by a weak economy, will result in a $1.3 trillion deficit.\no This is the third consecutive deficit of more than $1 trillion.\no The publicly-held national debt (the amount borrowed from the private sector) is now more than $10 trillion.\nWith budget numbers like these, no wonder America has a fiscal hangover.\nAnd let\u2019s be blunt about assigning blame. Yes, Obama has been a reckless big spender, but he is merely continuing the irresponsible statist policies of his predecessor.\nFortunately, there is a solution. All we need to do is restrain the growth of federal spending, as explained in this video.\n[youtube xezWd7VU2Ug]\nBut we also know that it is difficult to convince politicians to do what\u2019s right for the nation. And if they don\u2019t change the course of fiscal policy, and we leave the federal government on autopilot, then America is doomed to become another Greece.\nThe combination of poorly designed entitlement programs (mostly Medicare and Medicaid) and an aging population will lead to America\u2019s fiscal collapse.",

But on Thursday, Amazon's fast-growing online advertising officially became a threat in the eyes of Facebook.\n\"We compete with Apple in messaging, Google and YouTube in advertising and video, Tencent in messaging and social media, and Amazon in advertising,\" Facebook said in its annual 10K filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Thursday.\nThe filing marks the first time the Amazon name has appeared in one of Facebook's regulatory filings, and it underscores the growing importance of Amazon in an online ad market long dominated by Google and Facebook.\nWhile Amazon does not directly report its online ad sales, the company's \"other\" revenue, which is mostly comprised of ad sales, surged 95% year-over-year in the fourth quarter, to $3.4 billion.\nAmazon's share of the online digital ad market is expected to grow to 2.8% in 2019, up from 2.1% last year, according to eMarketer. Google is expected to claim 31.3% of the global digital ad market this year, while Facebook is expected to remain in second place with 20.5% share o the market.\nThe advertising business may be the most immediate clash between Facebook and Amazon, but it's unlikely to be the last. Facebook's video streaming service Watch is one of the company's most important initiatives, pitting Facebook against other entrenched video streaming players like YouTube, Netflix and Amazon Prime.\nAnd during the Facebook earnings call earlier this week, CEO Mark Zuckerberg cited a new effort to turn the Instagram photo-sharing app into a platform for e-commerce. If Zuckerberg has his way, Facebook's name will appear on Amazon's list of retail rivals someday, too.\nSEE ALSO: Amazon tops Wall Street's holiday expectations, but offers weak sales guidance\nMore: Facebook Amazon",

Bush said he feared he would be the last Republican president. The comments prompted a Fox News reporter to ask Obama on Sunday whether he felt the same way about his party since the tables had turned and Republicans had control of the presidency, both houses of Congress, nearly two-thirds of state legislatures, and more than 30 governorships.\n\"I certainly think it's true that politics in America right now are a little bit up for grabs,\" Obama said. \"That some of the old alignments in both parties, Democrat and Republican, are being reshaped. Democrats do have to do some thinking about how do we make sure that the message we have is received effectively and results in winning elections.\"\nReports of infighting in the Democratic Party began surfacing in the days after Trump's surprise win in this month's presidential election. Party leaders are preparing for years of self-examination.\nObama suggested that the Democratic election strategy of \"micro-targeting\" specific demographic groups \u2014 like the black and Hispanic voters that were crucial for Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton \u2014 may not be the most effective strategy.\n\"One message I do have for Democrats, that a strategy that's micro-targeting particular discrete groups in a Democratic coalition sometimes wins the election, but it does not win you the broad mandate you need,\" Obama said.\nHe added: \"And the more we can talk about what we have in common as a nation and speak to a broad set of values, a vision that speaks to everybody, and not just one group at a time, the better off we will be.\"\nSEE ALSO: 'It was arrogance' \u2014 Clinton staffers explain how she lost key battleground states\nMore: Barack Obama Democratic Party 2016 Elections Donald Trump",

        "raw_content": "What it's really like to live in one of the cities with the best quality of life in the world\nThe views in Bern are incredible.\nRebecca Griffiths/Business Insider\nBern in Switzerland is considered one of best cities to live in the world.\nThe Alpine city ranked 14th in the annual \"Quality of Living Index\" of one of the world's largest HR consultancy firms, Mercer, and as the second-safest city in the world in the group's separate rankings.\nAccording to London-based think tank Legatum Institute in its annual global Prosperity Index, Switzerland overall is the second happiest, richest, healthiest, and most crime-free country in the world.\nGlassdoor also showed that Switzerland has the best standard of living in Europe because of its on average high salaries of over \u20ac50,000 (\u00a339,038, $56,838) and strong purchasing power.\nBasically, Bern sounds pretty amazing. Travel experts point out that it's underrated because it is less well known than Switzerland's huge financial hubs, Zurich and Geneva.\nSo what makes Bern great?\nRebecca Griffiths is a cardiovascular admissions manager for a large NHS Foundation Trust in London, but she went to Switzerland for a month to experience and learn about the healthcare system as part of the multidisciplinary Hope Exchange programme.\n\"The quality of life in Switzerland, and very much so in Bern, is of a very high standard. People take care of themselves. Work-life balance was good,\" Griffiths said.\nShe gave us the inside track on why the Swiss city is so incredible and one of the best places to live and work in the world and how it compares to London:\nThis is Rebecca Griffiths. She usually lives and works in London. She moved to Switzerland for a month to experience and learn from the differences in the British and Swiss healthcare systems.\nOne of the biggest differences between London and Bern was the incredible scenery.\n\"The medieval part of Bern is amazing. The river is also beautiful. It's so clean you can drink from it, and people use it for swimming in the summer,\" she said.\nEven the view from her apartment was vastly different and was really calming.\nHer commute was also a lot less crowded than the London tube network. And if you didn't want to walk, Griffiths said: \"Bern has excellent public transport, which means your train/bus often arrives early if not on time.\"\n\"I like that the whole city was walkable, and I also spent time on the lawns near the public lidos at Marzili. I absolutely loved walking five minutes to work, and I do not look forward to my first cramped train commute when I'm back in the UK,\" said Griffiths.\nOnce she got to work, she said the difference in terms of work-life balance was very different. Here she is with Ana, a fellow from the Hope Exchange programme attendee.\nShe said that \"the full-time contracted hours are longer than the UK, at around 42 hours per week. However my experience was that everyone made sure to have a proper lunch away from their desks and the workday really did finish at 4 p.m. to 5. p.m.\"\nStaff facilities were incredibly different to those in a UK hospital. For example, there was an outdoor staff canteen area on the roof.\nFreshly squeezed fruit juices were available to everyone. Griffiths said that the staff even gave her a tour of their kitchens and all the meals they prepare. \"Having talking time when sitting down to lunch and eating one of the many delicious hospital meals (who'd have thought) was so much nicer than scoffing lunch quickly while hunched over my desk or rushing to a meeting,\" she said.\n\"Bern is more relaxed than the other cities of Switzerland and there seems to be a running joke that everything runs a bit slower there too.\"\nShe said that overall \"the atmosphere was relaxed and it was perfectly situated to visit other areas like Zurich, Luzern, Biel, Basil and the surrounding mountainous regions.\"\nThe nightlife was also a lot more upmarket and chilled out.\n\"My experience was that there is a big focus on nice dinners with good wine/beer,\" she said, as opposed to Britain's drinking culture.\n\"The town was often quiet during the week, especially if the weather was bad ...\n... but Thursday's were busy due to late-night shopping and there seemed to be an r'n'b/hip-hop scene with lots of promoters and some awesome break dancing near the Bahnhof,\" said Griffiths.\nThere is also a lot to see and do in terms of culture in Bern. For example, there is the Einstein Museum ...\n... and a park full of bears.\nThe food is also meant to be pretty spectacular. Griffiths recommended Steinhalle bistro for trendy, tasty lunches next to Einstein museum and Beaulieu restaurant for a great R\u00f6sti \u2014 a traditional Swiss potato dish.\nThere are only five downsides to Bern, Griffiths said. The first was how expensive everything was compared to London. (But this shouldn't be a problem of course if you are on a Swiss salary, which is higher than the UK).\nSecondly, \"if you don't want to get woken up at 5 a.m., do not stay near a church. The bells literally ring every 15 minutes, and it takes a while to adjust,\" she said.\nThirdly, she said she missed having an Indian curry \u2014 a staple dinner dish in Britain. \"Although I did manage to find a half decent Indian restaurant near the end, I missed making curries at home as the ingredients were so expensive to buy,\" she said. For example, these usually retail for \u00a31 in Britain but in Switzerland, a jar was being sold for the equivalent of \u00a33.50.\nShe said she also missed smoke-free train stations, as \"the platforms were unpleasant.\"\nAnd lastly, this \"creepy, yet hilarious\" statue of a man eating babies near the landmark Zytglogge tower in Bern.\nMore: Features Bern Switzerland Mercer",

        "title": "7 Misconceptions About Workers' Comp Insurance | IdeaCafe.com",
        "raw_content": "7 Misconceptions About Workers' Comp Insurance\nEvery employer needs to have workers\u2019 compensation insurance. As an employer or prospective employer, you likely already know that workers\u2019 comp insurance is meant to protect employees who are hurt while they\u2019re on the clock or in your workplace. But you might be surprised to learn about some of the features of workers\u2019 comp insurance and how it works, because even among employers, it\u2019s a topic ripe with misconceptions.\nTop Misconceptions About Workers\u2019 Comp\nThese are some of the biggest and most notable misconceptions about workers\u2019 comp insurance:\nWorkers\u2019 comp insurance is automatically applied. You don\u2019t get workers\u2019 compensation coverage just for starting a business, nor is workers\u2019 comp automatically included in any federal or state taxes you pay. How to get workers\u2019 comp insurance may vary by state, but for the most part, you\u2019ll need to find a specific provider, shopping around for quotes until you find a policy that works for you.\nEmployees can\u2019t sue you if they take a workers\u2019 comp claim. In most cases, when an employee makes a workers\u2019 comp claim, they forfeit any right to sue their employers\u2014but this isn\u2019t always the case. If an employee suffered a personal injury due to employer neglect, they may be entitled to seek further compensation in some situations. This is an extra incentive to maintain a healthy, safe, and accident-free workplace.\nWorkers\u2019 comp only applies in cases of negligence. Conversely, you may believe that workers\u2019 comp only applies in cases where the employer was clearly negligent. In fact, it should cover any injury sustained on the job, no matter how it unfolded. It will apply in a total freak accident where no one was at fault, and apply even if an employee harms themselves through their own neglect or refusal to follow policy.\nEmployer responsibilities are over when the claim is filed. Once an employee files a workers\u2019 comp claim, you might believe your employer responsibilities are over. However, it\u2019s your responsibility to work with your employee to get them back to work as quickly as possible. That means following up with them to judge their progress, helping them get more medical treatment if needed, and in most cases, gradually returning them to their full-time position.\nInjured employees don\u2019t have an option for medical treatment. You might believe that the employer or insurance company gets to choose how an employee seeks treatment, or who they get to see for treatment. However, employees still have a choice. There may be some options that are off the table, depending on the state and your specific policy, but for the most part, employees will get to choose where they go for treatment.\nWorkers\u2019 comp claims can be processed at your leisure. Once an employee has reported an injury, you might be tempted to let the paperwork sit; after all, insurance companies tend to process things slowly. But as an employer, you\u2019re responsible for completing the paperwork and processing the claim as quickly as possible. Remember, part of your job is to ensure the employee is treated and back at work as soon as possible.\nIndependent contractors don\u2019t have access to workers\u2019 comp. You might think that only your full-time employees are eligible to file a workers\u2019 comp claim; after all, they\u2019re the primary audience you\u2019re trying to insure. However, in some cases, your independent contractors\u2014the ones who fill out a 1099\u2014may also be eligible. If they are required to work onsite and suffer an injury while working, they may be just as eligible as any other full-time employee.\nBuilding Your Understanding\nThe best thing you can do as an employer is improve your own understanding about how workers\u2019 comp insurance works. Make sure to talk to your provider about exactly what\u2019s covered and how to file a claim, and do research about workers\u2019 comp laws in your state and region to see if there are any peculiarities you need to watch for. Most of all, when an employee does need to make a claim, make sure you follow the legal procedures to the letter, and do everything you can to make the process as smooth as possible.",

        "raw_content": "A recently published study reveals that while in some situations, parents have no warning that their child may be born with certain birth injuries - such as a brachial plexus injury - other times certain characteristics point to an increased likelihood of complications.\nOne of the factors considered was the impact of a previous natural delivery vs. a Cesarean section on the likelihood that an injury may occur. The study concluded that brachial plexus injuries are significantly more likely to occur during vaginal deliveries. However, despite previous findings that suggest otherwise, the incidence of brachial plexus injuries was roughly the same whether this is the mother's first delivery or not.\nBrachial plexus injuries are one of the leading types of birth trauma, and are often the result of shoulder dystocia \u2013 where the baby's shoulder becomes stuck behind the mother's pubic bone. Some of the factors that increase the likelihood of such an injury include prolonged labor, high infant birth weight, multiple pregnancies and premature deliveries.\nA brachial plexus injury involves harm to the network of nerves that controls the arm and shoulder. Three major types of brachial plexus injuries exist.\nUpper arm brachial plexus\nKlumpke paralysis (affecting the hand)\nWhile some children recover from these injuries, others do not and suffer life long, permanent and sometimes life threatening effects. Permanent injuries may include muscle spasms or partial/total loss of function for the rest of a child's life.\nFor more information, or if you believe your baby's brachial plexus injury was caused by your doctor's negligence, please contact the experienced California birth injury lawyers at Bostwick & Peterson today to learn your legal rights and options.",

        "raw_content": "Portrait of a courtesan 1597 - by Caravaggio\nThis was probably the portrait of the courtesan 'Phyllis' listed in the Giustiniani inventory of 1638. If it was actually commissioned by the Marchese Vincenzo Giustiniani it would have been the earliest fruit of contact between Caravaggio and one of his most important patrons, for the work can be dated no later than 1598/99 on stylistic grounds. The strong, yet not extremely dark shadows, the treatment of the sleeves and the challenging expression of the face remind one of such works as St. Catherine, The Conversion of the Magdalen and Judith and Holofernes. But the 'Phyllis' was probably painted earlier than any of these: it is worth noting that the pose of her hand resembles that of the Virgin in The Rest on the Flight into Egypt. The flowers which she holds so elegantly at her breast are definitely jasmine, symbol of erotic love, and certainly not orange blossom, symbol of'pure' love, as Voss and others have claimed. Voss's suggestion that the picture represented Caterina Campani, wife of Caravaggio's friend, the architect Onorio Longhi, is, therefore, unacceptable, while the old description in the Giustiniani inventory would seem to make sense of the posy of jasmine.",

        "raw_content": "What is a CVT gearbox?\nBuying a new car doesn\u2019t have to be difficult \u2013 after all, that\u2019s why we started carwow. But sometimes just choosing the equipment for your new wheels can be tough, thanks to indecipherable acronyms and new technology.\nTo help, we\u2019re here with a series of guides to help explain some of the more modern technologies that you might not have seen on a car. This week, we\u2019re looking at CVT gearboxes.\nCVT stands for continually variable transmission (also called infinitely variable). Like DSG gearboxes, CVTs are, in the simplest terms, automatic gearboxes. You start the car, hold the brake, slot it into \u2018D\u2019 and you can pull away and come to a standstill without using a clutch or fearing stalling. And like an auto, it alters the gear ratio as you gather speed to keep the engine operating at the correct rpms.\nTraditional automatic gearboxes have a fluid connection between the engine and the gears. Torque (the turning force of the engine) passes through the fluid connection, through the gears to the wheels. Typically these gearboxes have between five and eight fixed gears or ratios that spread the engine\u2019s power across the ranges of speeds the car will be driving at. This means the car can pull away smoothly in first gear and won\u2019t destroy itself at motorway speeds using a higher one.\nA CVT differs because, instead of having fixed gears, it has the capacity to infinitely (or continuously) vary the gear ratio between the engine and the wheels. This means, in theory, when the driver doesn\u2019t require that much power from the engine the CVT can let the engine rev lower than a \u2018top gear\u2019 would. It also means that when the driver requires power, the engine stays spinning at its most powerful speed and the acceleration happens by changing the CVT\u2019s ratio.\nIn one of the most common varieties of CVT, one end is connected to the engine and the other is connected to the wheels. Joining the two ends is, usually, a reinforced band made of rubber or metal. Each end is formed of two shallow cones facing one another, with the band running in the gap between them. By varying the distance between the two cones the gear ratio can be changed \u2013 i.e. when the cones are close together the band spins a lot in one revolution, when they are further apart the band spins much less in one revolution. Other CVT types use more robust planetary gear sets to the same effect.\nA computer controls the ratio at the engine and at the wheels to ensure that the most sensible \u2018gear\u2019 is selected for a given driving condition. When acceleration is demanded, the engine spins up to its most powerful point then the CVT alters the ratios to increase the speed. This is in contrast to cars with traditional gearboxes, which accelerate through their rev ranges, then have to change gear and repeat the process.\nTheoretically, there are numerous advantages. Combustion engines have a particular point in their rev ranges where they make the most power, unlike electric motors which always make their maximum output. A CVT allows the engine to remain in this zone while accelerating, and then drop down to low rpm almost instantly when power is no longer required.\nCVTs are most useful, and most commonly found, in hybrid cars where their design makes them well suited to combining the power from combustion engines and electric motors. Though no CVT has fixed gears, some are programmed to mimic having set gears to make the car\u2019s acceleration feel more natural and progressive.\nIf you peruse reviews of cars fitted with CVTs, then the gearbox typically becomes a point of contention. Many reviewers dislike the way that CVTs cause revs to rise and fall in an unnatural manner, and the way that their engines stay noisy during acceleration. Some CVTs are also criticised for being unresponsive to inputs from the pedals.\nMost criticisms, though, seem to be a matter of taste and what the driver is used to. Certainly, CVTs won\u2019t suit die-hard petrolheads, but for the majority of buyers just looking for efficient, automatic transportation, a CVT will work perfectly fine.\nAnything else I need to consider?\nAutomatic gearboxes are becoming more and more common as manufacturers realise that computers can do the job of shifting gear faster and more efficiently than a human. Many reviewers, however, prefer traditional torque converter or twin-clutch DSG-style units because they fit more naturally into the rhythm of driving.\nWhat about other types of gearbox?\nWe\u2019ve also produced an easy-to-understand guide to DSG gearboxes \u2013 the sort more traditionally found in petrol and diesel cars.",

        "raw_content": "Aspiring Entrepreneurs: Got What It Takes to Start a Company?\nSo many of you aspire to start your own company, and the one thing holding you back is you don't know where to start, how to get funded, that sort of thing.\nHere's where you start - right here.\nGrowing up in the high-tech industry, I had the good fortune to be involved in some successful startups, a few well-known growth companies, and one or two pretty spectacular flameouts. Hey, it comes with the territory.\nAnother thing that comes with the territory in Silicon Valley is working with venture capital firms and investment banks on private funding rounds and public offerings. Now, I'm an old pro, but that wasn't always the case.\nAbout 20 years ago, full of nerves before my very first due diligence presentation to a room full of investment bankers, analysts, and lawyers, I decided to open with a joke:\n\"I couldn't wait to meet the people who were crazy enough to underwrite this IPO.\"\nI guess that's when I learned how to move things along when you tell a horribly inappropriate joke that falls flat. Lucky I didn't get canned on the spot.\nAnyway, I'm never surprised when entrepreneurs look at the venture funding process with more than a little shock and awe, like it's some sort of mystical or supernatural event. It isn't, but it's certainly understandable that novices see it as more than a little bewildering and tough to navigate.\nThat's where this post comes in. You see, when you've been around the block a few times, you come to realize that there's a pretty systematic and methodical process to getting your idea or startup funded.\nThe most important thing you need to know about the process is this: If you've got the goods and some guidance, you'll probably find it easier than you expect. If not, you'll find it impossible. That's because, in my experience, companies that should get funded generally do; those that shouldn't get funded generally don't.\nThis isn't just a step-by-step guide to what you need and need to know to get your idea or startup funded. It's also a litmus test for you to determine if you've got what it takes. The journey starts here:\nPart I: The Three Deliverables ... Read >>\nImage: Mark Coggins via Flickr\nPart I. The Three Deliverables\nYou'll need three things before you send your first email or make your first phone call:\nDeliverable 1: The Pitch\nA 20-slide (max) pitch that answers four questions (see next page) sufficiently well to entice potential investors to take the discussion to the next level. The presentation is for your initial meeting with a potential investor or VC.\nIt's okay to have \"deep dive\" slides as backup if needed to help answer questions, just keep in mind that first meetings are usually an hour, tops, and it's up to you to make sure you get through your pitch in that time. Above all, make sure you answer the four questions in 20 slides or less.\nDeliverable 2: The Business Plan\nWhatever you've heard about needing or not needing a business plan, it's probably wrong. No, you don't need some formal plan so don't pay someone to do one. What you do need, in the vast majority of cases, is this:\nA 3 to 5 year business plan spreadsheet - nothing fancy - that includes all your capital requirements, expenses, and revenues from start to at least break-even or cash-flow positive. List all your assumptions - there will be a lot - as appropriate. Include two graphics of that spreadsheet - one for revenue, the other for P&L - that's two slides and only two slides, in the above pitch.\nDeliverable 3: The Executive Summary\nA one or two-page executive summary document that crisply and concisely summarizes what's in the pitch, i.e. answers the four questions. Make sure it's clean and error-free. Once you've been referred or introduced to a potential investor, attach the summary to your initial email. If they like it, you'll get a meeting where you'll get to deliver the pitch.\nNow, here are the four questions that every VC or potential investor will need answered to even be interested in funding your startup:\nPart II: The Four Questions You Need to Answer ... Read >>\nImage:ImagineCup via Flickr\nPart II. The Four Questions You Need to Answer\nIn one form or another, you've got to have the answers to these questions and their sub-questions or you're not going to get funded, it's that simple.\nQuestion 1: Who's the Team?\nSure, investors are very much interested in your idea, your technology, your solution, and the problem you're trying to solve. We'll get to all that in a minute. But first and foremost, they're investing in you, the founders or the team. And they'll want to know your backgrounds, capabilities, and why you're uniquely qualified to solve the problem.\nThere are three reasons why the team is so critical to a startup: :\nVCs or investors and their entrepreneurs or portfolio companies are like a marriage and each party needs to know whom they're getting into bed with and that it's a good fit.\nThe percentage of companies that end up successfully going to market and accomplishing some sort of exit or payoff for investors based on their initial idea or technology is slim. Success is therefore a function of how well the team can react and improvise in response to changing market conditions and customer feedback.\nEvery company runs into all sorts of hurdles and bumps in the road along the way. Investors will want to know what kind of people you are, if you're committed for the long haul, and if you've got what it takes to make it through thick and thin.\nThat's right, it's a relationship ... not unlike marriage.\nQuestion 2: What's the Problem?\nWhat big market or customer problem are you proposing to solve? Who (what types of customers) currently faces or suffers from this problem and what's the nature of their \"pain?\"\nIf you solve the problem with your solution, what's the market opportunity, market potential, the size of the opportunity? How long will it take to penetrate the market? Don't just show the broad total market; get specific and be sure to include all your assumptions.\nThe dichotomy here is that investors won't be interested if the opportunity isn't big enough, but if your market potential isn't credible - it's too far reaching and includes customer segments you really have no chance of winning - that won't fly either. It's a balancing act.\nQuestion 3: What's the Solution?\nWhat concept or technology do you propose to solve the problem? What specific products, services, or solutions do you plan to offer and what type of business model do you plan to employ?\nDescribe the competitive landscape you expect to face in the market. What's your value proposition, differentiation, or competitive advantage versus other current or potential solutions to the problem and how do you plan to position your offering in the market?\nDescribe your intellectual property - patents, trademarks, trade secrets or know-how - that you have or expect to develop to create barriers against competitors.\nWhat's your go-to market strategy, i.e. what market segment(s) do you plan to target first, second, etc. How do you plan to capture them? What competitive barriers will you face? Do you have a unique marketing, sales, communications, or channel strategy?\nQuestion 4: What's the Plan?\nWhat's your business and financial plan? What are your capital requirements to demonstrate your concept or technology, develop your solution, bring it to market, and reach cash-flow positive or break-even?\nWhat are your projected volumes and revenues, profit margins and P&L, over the next 3 to 5 years? What assumptions did you use to generate those forecasts?\nContrary to what you might think, you need to be as accurate as possible here. If you overreach you're just delaying the inevitable since it'll all come out in the due diligence process and, by then, you'll have wasted a lot of time and possibly burned a bridge.\nDon't forget to close with a summary (one slide in the pitch and a short paragraph in the summary) that crisply states why this is a great opportunity. As a guideline, think one simple bullet for each of the four questions.\nNow you're ready for Part III: The Seven Tips ... Read >>\nImage: Valerie Everett via Flickr\nPart III. The Seven Tips\nAbove all, be genuine and credible. This is hard to do when you're in \"selling mode,\" so it helps to put yourself in investors' shoes and get a feel for their perspective. They want you to reach but not overreach. They're looking for a big idea that'll change the world but they don't want you to BS them or yourself. It's a strange dichotomy, but it actually makes sense, if you think about it.\nKnow your pitch cold. That especially includes all the assumptions and how to crisply and decisively answer all four questions off the top of your head. You're the subject matter expert and they'll expect you to have thought things through and act as if you know what you're doing. Many will observe your thought process and behavior under fire, just like in an interview.\nGet to the point, the hook. \"Keep it simple\" applies bigtime here. Since you're excited about your idea, you'll want to take everyone through dozens of slides explaining all the gory details. Don't. You need to resist that urge. Instead, you need to boil it all down to a very crisp and simple explanation and lead with that as your solution. There'll be plenty of time for details later, but not if you don't hook them first, and quickly.\nRemember that VCs and investors are generalists. They see lots and lots of opportunities that span relatively large market segments. Sure, they may focus on software or biotech, but that doesn't mean their eyes won't gloss over if, in the initial meeting, you go down a rat-hole of minute details and technobabble.\nTest your pitch with \"friendly fire\" first. It's a very good idea to get feedback from folks who are willing to take the time and be honest with you about what they think. That can serve a dual purpose if they also have investor connections and are willing to make introductions. Remember, you'll only get one shot at the real deal so you've got to make it count.\nGet personal introductions. These days, most major angel investors, VCs, and strategic investment groups of big corporations, have websites, guidelines, and contact information for submitting ideas. That's fine, but you'll have a far better chance by getting introductions to specific individuals through your network. And make sure it's a \"partner\" of the firm.\nThe goal is called a \"term sheet.\" Once you get past the initial pitch, the firm may sick some analysts or specialists on you to \"dig in.\" Then there's a due diligence process that includes lawyers. The process varies from firm to firm and can last from weeks to many months. Some investors may say they're interested once you get a \"term sheet.\" That means they might invest if someone else \"leads\" the round. That's common. A term sheet is like a letter of intent that describes the material terms of the deal, most notably the price or valuation, how much they're investing, and for what share, voting rights, etc.\nFinally, if you've got any specific questions, contact me (there's a button to the left) and I'll see if I can help you. In any case, best of luck.\nAdvice For Budding Entrepreneurs\nInnovators Don't See Different Things - They See Things Differently\nThe 7 Habits of Highly Innovative People\nImage: stevendepolo via Flickr",

The journey marks her first solo trip as America's top diplomat to Britain and her first to Russia.\nIt comes after diplomats from those countries, the United States, China, France and Germany met this week with Iran's chief nuclear negotiator over its suspect atomic program.\nState Department spokesman Ian Kelly said that while in Belfast, Clinton would reaffirm \"unwavering U.S. support\" for the Northern Ireland peace process. In Moscow, she will be discussing progress on negotiating a successor to the 1991 Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty, or START I, before it expires on Dec. 5.\nAgreement on that is crucial for the U.S. and Russia to keep an eye on one another's nuclear stockpiles and add credibility to their efforts to persuade countries such as Iran and North Korea to abandon their nuclear programs.",

A body-camera video shows some people being loaded into ambulances and an officer helping triage victims, similar to other footage previously made public.\nThe video and audio are the 10th set of documents released in a public records lawsuit by media organizations, including The Associated Press.

        "raw_content": "Coast Guard crews in Maine to be paid Monday after all, despite shutdown\nSen. Susan Collins, who contacted the White House on Friday afternoon to urge an immediate fix to the payment issue, was told Friday night that Coast Guard employees will now be paid for their pre-shutdown work.\nAfter a last-minute intervention by Sen. Susan Collins, employees of the Coast Guard, including hundreds in Maine, will receive their pre-shutdown pay Monday on schedule.\nPreviously, the employees had been told they would not be getting their second paycheck of the month because of the partial shutdown of the federal government.\nA spokesman for Collins said she contacted the White House on Friday afternoon to urge an immediate fix to the payment issue, and a few hours later was told that Coast Guard members would now receive pay for their pre-shutdown work.\n\u201cGood news for the Coast Guard!\u201d Collins, a Republican, tweeted at 8:26 p.m. Friday. \u201cWhite House staff called to tell me CG members will receive their paychecks as did other federal employees. I continue to work to end the shutdown, but this will provide immediate relief to CG members & their families.\u201d\nHundreds of Coast Guard employees in Maine have remained on the job during the shutdown. Active-duty members nationwide are required to keep working, while most civilian employees of the Coast Guard have been furloughed, officials said.\nThe Coast Guard is scaling back its operations during the shutdown to focus on search and rescue, along with law enforcement functions related to port and homeland security, said Petty Officer 3rd Class Andrew Barresi, a spokesman for the Coast Guard\u2019s district operations based in Boston. Other functions that the service normally performs, such as maintaining navigation aids, will be deferred until after the shutdown ends, he said.\n\u201cIf there\u2019s a problem, let\u2019s hope the Coast Guard\u2019s there to answer it,\u201d said Willis Spear, a Yarmouth fisherman.\nMaine\u2019s active fishing and shipping industries, and the dangers they face along the state\u2019s 3,500-mile-long coastline, are a big reason the state is home to five Coast Guard stations and several hundred employees.\nThough the partial shutdown largely doesn\u2019t impact the Defense Department and members of the military in the Army, Navy, Air Force and Marines, the same isn\u2019t true for the U.S. Coast Guard, a Department of Homeland Security subcomponent that lacks full-year 2019 appropriations.\n\u2014 Sen. Susan Collins (@SenatorCollins) December 28, 2018\nThe fishing industry is also being indirectly affected by the effective shutdown of the National Marine Fisheries Service, Spear said. That agency has issued new rules on allowable catches for several species of fish, he said, and without workers at the service, fishermen can\u2019t find out if they are eligible to catch those fish.\nThe shutdown began last week, when President Trump demanded $5 billion to pay for additional construction of a wall along the Mexico-U.S. border. Democrats in Congress have balked at more funding for the wall. That has led to a shutdown of about two-fifths of the government, affecting nine departments whose 2018-19 budgets have not yet been approved.\nNationwide, hundreds of nonessential civilian workers for nine federal departments affected by the shutdown have been furloughed and told to stay home until the impasse between Trump and congressional Democrats ends.\nEssential workers and active-duty Coast Guard personnel are among those who have to be on the job and hope that the final deal includes language to pay them for the time they have put in. In past shutdowns, workers have been paid for lost wages after the impasse has been resolved.\nThe Coast Guard is focusing its resources on search and rescue along with port and homeland security during the partial government shutdown.\nThe Coast Guard is a branch of the armed services, but is part of the Department of Homeland Security, one of the departments closed by the budget impasse. The rest of the military operates as part of the Department of Defense, which is not included in the shutdown. Personnel in those branches of the military continue to collect pay.\nCoast Guard sector Northern New England, which covers Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont, has a total of seven stations and about 570 civilian, active-duty and reserve members, Barresi said. Most of those workers are in Maine, where the sector is headquartered, although the Coast Guard has small bases in New Hampshire and Vermont included in that total. Barresi said he could not provide a detailed breakdown of affected employees.\nBarresi said civilian nonessential employees of the Coast Guard have been furloughed as a result of the shutdown. Nationally, he said, about 85 percent of the civilian employees of the Coast Guard are considered nonessential, he said.\nThe Coast Guard\u2019s human resources office has a webpage to answer questions about the shutdown, including details about when pay might resume after the shutdown ends. It also includes a letter for active-duty personnel to download that asks creditors to provide \u201cunderstanding and flexibility\u201d with bills during the shutdown.\nEarlier Friday, Collins said the shutdown \u201crepresents a failure to govern and threatens to harm hundreds of thousands of federal employees and their families, those who need to interact with the closed agencies, and our economy.\u201d\nCollins said she sponsored a bill that will make sure that federal employees who work during the shutdown are paid, and the measure passed the Senate unanimously. She also said she\u2019s discussing possible solutions to the shutdown with the White House and with other senators.\nBefore Friday night\u2019s announcement, Maine\u2019s senior senator had issued a statement addressing the separate payroll system that would prevent active-duty members of the Coast Guard from receiving pay for pre-shutdown work unless action was taken.\n\u201cMost federal employees will receive their scheduled paychecks today, but that is not the case for 42,000 Coast Guard members, who will not be paid for pre-shutdown work because they are under a different pay system,\u201d Collins tweeted at 5:25 p.m. \u201cThis is not fair. I called the White House to urge an immediate fix.\u201d\nAlso before Friday night\u2019s announcement, Democratic U.S. Rep. Chellie Pingree, who represents Maine\u2019s 1st District, issued a statement about the shutdown and its effect on federal employees, including those who work for the Coast Guard.\n\u201cIt\u2019s unconscionable that President Trump can be so glib about the shutdown and have so little compassion for federal workers, like members of Maine\u2019s Coast Guard, who must go to work without a paycheck while they have families to feed and mortgages to pay,\u201d she said, adding that \u201cthey deserve recognition from the President not to work without pay due to his needless shutdown.\u201d\nOther federal workers in Maine are also affected by the shutdown, including employees of the Transportation Security Administration, who provide security screenings at airports. An email seeking information from a TSA spokeswoman was returned unanswered, along with a note saying that she was considered a \u201cnon-security-sensitive\u201d employee and had been furloughed.\nThe TSA is also part of the Department of Homeland Security.\nThe National Weather Service is also scaling back operations. It\u2019s part of the Commerce Department, another of the nine agencies without funding that have been affected by the shutdown.\nThe weather service said it will continue to provide forecasts and storm watches and warnings, but all other public activities have been canceled or postponed and any social media posts will be restricted to those relating to ongoing weather.\nJared Golden getting ready to take office next week in Washington\nCanton accident victim ID\u2019d\nsouth portland maine, susan collins",

        "raw_content": "Laguna Niguel Roof Inspection and Roof Certification\nProfessional Roofing Services in Laguna Niguel, Orange County, California\nHome Roof Inspection in Laguna Niguel\nHome Roof Certification in Laguna Niguel\nLaguna Niguel enjoys a stunning location in a hilly basin in the San Joaquin hills, and is home to two national parks and the beautiful Sulphur Creek Reservoir. Originally cattle land, Laguna Niguel finally became an incorporated city in 1989 and became the 29th city in Orange County. The perfect spot for anyone who loves nature, Laguna Niguel is a thriving place to live and work.\nLaguna Niguel was one of the first communities in California to be master-planned during the 1950s. From small beginnings with only 6500 residents, the city has grown into a popular place to live with a population of almost 63,000 people. The city\u2019s ziggurat building, now known as the Chet Holifield Federal Building, encompasses an astounding one million square feet. It was built in 1971 and is now home to millions of microfilms holding details of land transactions between the native south west American Indian tribes and the American government. This unusually shaped structure has been used as a set for numerous films including Outbreak in 1995, Death Race 2000 in 1975 and Deal of the Century in 1983. (source: Wikipedia)\nCert-A-Roof offers roof inspection and roof certification in a 30 mile radius around Laguna Niguel, including the cities of Laguna Woods, Laguna Beach, Lake Forest, San Juan Capistrano, Dana Point, San Clemente, Rancho Santa Margarita, Mission Viejo, Aliso Viejo and Irvine in Orange County.\nLaguna Niguel Common Roof Type\nTile is among the most popular choice of roofing in Laguna Niguel because it matches the Spanish style housing and architecture of the city. Although it is extremely durable, the roof needs to be inspected at a minimum of every 2 years because the tile can crack, break, or slip from its proper position. Other conditions that can affect your tile roof in Laguna Niguel are the Santa Ana winds (high winds of 40 miles per hour), deteriorated felt from the sun\u2019s strong rays if there is broken or cracked tile, debris in valleys and El Nino storms.\nLaguna Niguel Climate\nLaguna Niguel benefits from a pleasant and mild climate throughout the year. As would be expected, December is the year\u2019s coldest month and August the hottest, with temperatures of up to 108\u00b0F having been recorded. Although winter temperatures have occasionally reached lows of -6\u00b0F, the average maximum temperature in the colder months is 67\u00b0F. There is very little rain in this area, with only five months of the year experiencing more than 1 inch of rainfall. There is very little chance of snow here. (Source Wikipedia)\nLaguna Niguel Population\nOut of a total population of 62,979 as recorded in 2010, more than 99% live in households, with around a third having children aged under 18. More than half the population is opposite sex married couples and the average family size in the city is 3.06. The city has a slightly larger female population than male, and overall the majority of residents are aged between 45 and 64 (sources: U.S. Census).\nLaguna Niguel Housing\nOver the past year, the median value of Laguna Niguel homes has increased by $39,000 to an average of $773,400 and it is predicted that values will continue to rise by around 1.2% over the coming year. The median rental price is around $3,500 and the average price per square foot is now $388.

        "raw_content": "Q. What types of follow-up questions can we expect from the CRA when applying to register a church as a charity?\nA. When it comes to registering a charity under the \"advancement of religion\" head, you will have to show:\n(a) the promotion of spiritual teaching of a religious body,\n(b) the maintenance of the doctrines on which it rests,\n(c) the observances that serve to promote and manifest it. and\n(d) there must be an element of theistic worship.\nIn other words, to advance religion means to promote it, spread its message among mankind, and to take positive steps to sustain and increase belief in that particular religion.\nHowever, not everything done in the name of religion advances religion within the meaning of case law. There must be a clear and material connection between an organization's activities or programs and promotion of the religion's key attributes.\nAs noted previously, probably the most critical part of the application to register a charity, Form t2050, is Question 11a. When completing this form, one must ensure to include very detailed information about the organization's activities, including the following:\nthe Statement of Articles of Faith espoused by the Applicant;\nthe requirements for membership;\nthe number of members at the place of worship and their relationship, if any, by blood, marriage or adoption;\nthe names of pastors/ministers and their ministerial credentials;\nthe frequency of services or meetings at the place of worship and the location at which they are held; and\nsample copies of church bulletins, flyers, as well as other materials used topromote the church.\nII. Religious studies:\nFrequency;\nTopics of discussion.\nMore on this topic can be found at the link below, at the CRA\u2019s website:\nhttps://www.canada.ca/en/revenue-agency/services/charities-giving/charities/policies-guidance/guidance-019-draft-purposes-charitable-registration.html#toc10",

        "title": "LIFE IN THE SLOW LANE - Chicago Tribune",
        "raw_content": "Teresa Gubbins, Dallas Morning NewsCHICAGO TRIBUNE\nAmy Grant graduated from Christian pop icon to secular superstar three years ago, but her music still provokes an irresistible urge to read \"Him\" into her \"hims.\"\nThough she still celebrates her religious roots, the fact is, you'll find God thanked more in Prince's liner notes than on Grant's new album, \"House of Love.\" Although she began her crossover bid with 1985's \"Unguarded,\" the 34-year-old singer didn't really put the religious nudges-and-winks to rest until her last album, the triple-platinum \"Heart in Motion.\"\nIndeed, that album's best-known double-entendre was not spiritual: The frothy No. 1 hit \"Baby, Baby\" could have been a romantic ditty, but was actually dedicated to Grant's infant daughter. The video, still playing on VH-1, shows the singer frolicking with a male romantic lead. She calls it \"the song that won't die.\"\nIf \"Heart in Motion\" served as Grant's official transition from the world of Jesus to the world of lite pop, then the similar-sounding \"House of Love\" is her affirmation of just how comfy secular pop success can be. The keyboard-dominated, R&B-inflected sound ranges from a soulful duet with country star Vince Gill on the title track to the spiritual questions of \"Love Has a Hold On Me\" (\"Where do I come from, what does life mean/Is it not to know the one who made me?\").\nSome segments of the Christian market may have grumbled at her crossover success, but that cloud seems to have passed, putting Grant in an enviable position: climbing the pop ladder with a solidly loyal-and formidable-Christian-audience base to support her.\nOne sure-fire clue to the record's mainstream direction is her cover of Joni Mitchell's 1970 hit \"Big Yellow Taxi.\" The idea of Amy Grant's singing \"Big Yellow Taxi\" could be heresy to some Mitchell fans. But Grant says she identifies with the song's message and even went so far as to call Mitchell's management for permission to update the lyrics.\n\"When we looked at the lyrics, there was that line about DDT in the song-it is kind of dated in ways,\" Grant recalled during a recent interview. \"I said, `Please tell her if there's anything she wants to change, I'll sing any different lyrics.' Well, there's a line toward the front of the song that says, `They took all the trees and put 'em in a tree museum/and then they charged all the people a dollar-and-a-half just to see 'em.' She said, `Why don't we account for a little inflation here and make the ticket price 25 bucks?' So that's the only change, and it was at her request. I hope if we do a video, that she would do a cameo.\"\nOne of the song's verses echoes some of Grant's own concerns about livin' in the U.S.A.\n\"That line, `Don't it always seem to go, you don't know what you've got 'til it's gone?' to me captures the American way of life,\" Grant says. \"I need a new this and I need a new that, I need a new mate. I need a new house, I need a new I don't know. I don't even know if she (Mitchell) meant it that heavy, but I think that we get so obsessed with the new thing that we devalue the old thing. And a lot of times you can't get it back and you've gone and made all these choices for something that you might regret, but you live with anyway.\"\nTo stay grounded, Grant and her husband, musician Gary Chapman, have lived for 10 years on a farm just south of Nashville where they raise their three children and work on the land. It's an idyllic picture of family life, framed by Grant in her flowered dress and brown curls. Her concern about the frantic pace of a pop star's life spurred her to take up that favorite sport of doctors and geriatrics alike-golf.\n\"The American lifestyle is just moving faster and faster,\" she says. \"Golf is kind of a `slow down' answer.\"\nPlaying golf is a trend among performers, Grant says. She took up the sport at the urging of Gill.\n\"You work at night and you're in a different city every day, so you can either sit in the hotel room or go to a mall, which is horrible,\" she says. \"I don't really like to shop. There's no age barrier in golf. And how well you play doesn't affect anybody else, unlike how well your record is selling, which affects the people you work with.\n\"Nobody depends on you,\" she adds. \"It just gives you a lot of room to relax and have fun.\"\nWhen the topic turns to duet partner Gill, Grant gets a bit gushy as she talks about his charity work and self-effacing attitude. As someone who has confessed that she started out in her career and marriage with a \"real agenda,\" she is perhaps learning a lesson about stepping back.\n\"I think sometimes things that are really rewarding in life, you don't push,\" she says. \"One thing just kind of leads to another.\n\"That song `House of Love' is probably the truest moment of that kind. I was trying to do the background vocals, and I was mortified at how high they were. I couldn't hit the notes. I'm sitting at the studio, dying a thousand deaths, when a friend who sells real estate called and said, `I'm getting ready to show Vince and Janis this farm you and Gary looked at; do you want to go?' I love hiking, and it's a beautiful hillside and I was familiar with the land, and I said yes.\n\"After we looked at the farm, we were all getting in our cars to leave. I said, `Will you do a song for me on my record?' and Vince said, `Sure.' It amazed me that he didn't even care what the song was about. I said, `It's really high, nosebleed high,' and he said, `No problem.' I really appreciate his approach to his music, which he loves but doesn't feel like it gives him any more value than the next guy.\"\nIn her early days, Grant was called a \"gospel singer,\" before the term \"contemporary Christian music\" became common.\n\"`Gospel' isn't really accurate, because it does conjure up a music form,\" she says. \"Then in the mid-'70s, `Jesus music' was born. It came out of the flower-child movement. I came in at the tail end of that.\n\"I went to a church where I attended barefoot and everybody wore big, wide leather belts-my first job was as a leather crafter,\" she says proudly. \"There are a lot of things about the cultural trappings of the religious community that I've never understood and didn't fit. That stuff has nothing to do with God, it has to do with the clique. I've been oblivious to cliques my whole life. Because I never felt a part of the cultural experience, I never really felt the lines (of being a) `Christian' singer.\"\nStill, Grant and Chapman make an awfully cute couple on the cover of the May issue of CCM (Contemporary Christian Music), the bible of the Christian music scene. Their enduring commitment to each other, even through Chapman's much-publicized drug problems in the early years of their marriage, make them Christian music's perfect poster children.\nLike most of Grant's recent albums, \"House of Love\" will be jointly released by Christian label Myrrh Records and A&M Records. A&M touts the single \"Lucky One\" to Top 40 and adult contemporary radio; Myrrh promotes a separate single, \"Children of the World,\" featuring eight child singers.\nGrant's upcoming projects include filming three videos for the new record plus a series of Christmas commercials for Target stores and recording background vocals on an upcoming Carole King release.\nFor the first time since 1991, she'll tour Europe in the fall, and the United States in the spring, with a tour of amphitheaters next summer. She's looking forward to getting back on the road and in front of her fans. But she says she doesn't like to separate her audience into Christian and secular.\n\"People are people. To say, `This is a pop crowd,' really diminishes the people as people. To say this is their only interest or taste and to say it's a Christian crowd does the same thing. . . .\n\"The audience tends to reflect the person onstage. To the extreme, you show up dressing like the person onstage. Which happens. I guess I feel like the people that come to my concerts, they for a while kind of reflect what I'm bringing to the table.\"",

        "title": "The Central Point: Persistent Faith",
        "raw_content": "Sermon Focus: The number of words we employ in our prayers are not the measure of adequacy of our prayers. On the contrary, Jesus teaches us that it is persistence, patience, and faithfulness in prayer are the essential elements.\nSermon Function: To teach listeners about the faithfulness inherent in prayer, and that persistence, patience, and faithfulness are marks of our faith and hope that all our prayers will ultimately be answered \u2013 even if we must wait to the end of all things for the answer.\nSara and I just returned from Mission, Texas, where our presbytery, Mission Presbytery, just completed a two-day regular stated meeting. New candidates for ministry were examined. Presbytery committees made their reports. An overture to the General Assembly was presented. And, most importantly, there was corporate worship and fellowship amongst the Elder and Pastor commissioners and visitors.\nOur two-day meeting came on the heels of what has been a very busy week for me. On Tuesday, I spoke at a meeting of the Presbytery Women of First Presbyterian Church, Corpus Christi. The next day, I have a similar take at a \u201cDiscipleship U\u201d event at Jackson Woods Presbyterian Church. And this weekend, I\u2019m glad to say the Presbytery meeting was punctuated with a lot of prayer.\nIt was, then, very serendipitous that this week\u2019s scripture text deals specifically with prayer, and the nature of our prayer. As I read the text, I invite you all to reflect on your own prayer life. What is your preferred means of praying? Is it praying in silence? Or in song? Whatever it is, I invite you to think for just a moment about that before I read the scripture text for today.\nLet us now listen to God\u2019s word to us.\n[Read Scripture - Luke 18:1-8]\nIn my life, I have frequently struggled with instances where I have perceived that God has not responded to my prayers. Why should this be the case? Many of us take very seriously the notion that God hears our prayers, or we wouldn\u2019t bother praying at all. I also take seriously the invitation to prayer offered to us by our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, as recorded in Luke and Matthew, and alluded to also in John\u2019s Gospel. Luke records Jesus saying the following:\n\u201cSo I say to you, Ask, and it will be given you; search, and you will find; knock, and the door will be opened for you. For everyone who asks receives, and everyone who searches finds, and for everyone who knocks, the door will be opened. (Luke 11:9-10 NRSV)\nThese words have been repeated so often that we take them for granted and put God in a box, the one where God becomes a Santa Claus of sorts. And when we reduce the words of our prayers to a wish list, we have reduced who God is. We do this as sinful people, because we want to worship a God that wants what we want, or who at least wants to give us what we want.\nSo, what is the deal with prayer? How is it best offered? How does it \u201cwork?\u201d Is there some magic to it? Or is there something else about prayer that we should be attending to? Our story helps us greatly to understand the nature and character of our prayers.\nThe best way to approach today\u2019s text, I think, is not with an overabundance of illustrations, but head on, verse by verse.\nThe first verse of our text gives us the explanation for why Jesus told this parable.\nFirst, we have a need to pray. The Greek infinitive verb here could also be translated as necessity, and I think what is actually being said is here is a combination of the two words. We have a compulsion, a need, to pray, borne out of our created existences and sons and daughters of God. I think if you reflect on your prayer lives, you might actually be surprised at how often we to pray. Sometimes the prayer will come to us in what would otherwise be understood as a pretty average moment. \u201cGood Lord, help this line to move faster.\u201d Simple prayers asked for simple things out of the anxiety of the moment. We seem to be pre-programmed for prayer. Prayers bubble up in us in the late hours of the evening as we drift off to bed. And prayer is there in the morning when we starting thinking about all those tasks and chores that must be completed after we get out of bed. We have a compulsive need to pray. And yes, atheist friends, I know you do it do, even if you won\u2019t admit it, because I know that prayer is part of our human programming.\nAs are also advised by our text \u201cnot to lose heart\u201d (Luke 18:1). I have a tough time with that one, particularly in the moment when it seems obvious that the prayer \u201cdidn\u2019t take.\u201d \u201cO Lord, please help focus my mind on this calculus exam, even though I know I haven\u2019t studied at all, I know that by your grace you will impart the portion of your divine brilliance that will see me through this day. I\u2019m counting on you God. Amen.\u201d\nIf you\u2019re like me, those prayers to get answered, and the answer usually comes as a sweet whisper from the Holy Spirit, \u201cYou are unprepared.\u201d\nSo, we know we have this built in programming to pray, and that causes us to pray even at times when we don\u2019t even realize it. We are also called to not lose heart, a phrase that obviously refers to those times when the response to our prayer isn\u2019t what we\u2019d hoped for.\nNot losing heart is really what this parable is about. To illustrate this, Jesus tells the story of a widow who keeps approaching a judge and asking for justice.\nThe judge, we learn, \u201cneither feared God nor had respect for people\u201d (Luke 18:2). The judge cared for nothing but, perhaps, himself as his position as judge. We unfortunately are familiar with such characters, those who, in the pursuit of power, end up caring about only the perseverance of that power.\nObviously, the judge in our story is being portrayed here as a sinful human, and not like the God we know as the One who delivers just judgment (a topic we discussed several weeks ago when we were studying the prophet Jeremiah).\nThe widow states her case, \u201cVindicate me against my adversary.\u201d And he initially refuses.\nThe widow\u2019s plea is a plea for justice, justice from an adversary who was likely preying on her because she is a widow. Widows had to be protected against exploitation and were particularly venerable to abuse because they had no family to uphold their cause. For us, the widow represents anyone who, by virtue of their social status, is subject to being abused by those who are more powerful.\nWe live in solidarity with the widow. We, too, suffer injustice. And we see others suffer injustice. We cry out for relief. Anyone who has been sick will tell you of the times that they have prayed for healing. Sometimes the healing comes, sometimes it does not. And when this happens, our faith is directly challenged. Is God really listening to me? Doesn\u2019t he care about what is happening to me? Perhaps, Lord, I\u2019ve brought this evil upon myself. Perhaps in my sin I caused this to happen. We continue to pray for answers, hoping that our faith will ultimately bear fruit, and we will receive our answer.\nThe Hope of the Text\nAnd that is precisely the hope of this story that Jesus has told.\nThe widow persists in her prayer to have an injustice alleviated by one who has the power to do so.\nThe judge responds to the widow\u2019s repeated entreaties for relief:\n\u2018Though I have no fear of God and no respect for anyone, yet because this widow keeps bothering me, I will grant her justice, so that she may not wear me out by continually coming.\u2019\u201d (Luke 18:4-5 NRSV)\nThis is actually a humorous passage to read in the Greek, because what the judge is really worried about is that \u201cin the end, she might \u1f51\u03c0\u03c9\u03c0\u03b9\u1f71\u03b6\u03c9 me with her continual coming.\u201d That Greek word is actually a compound of two other words that allude to getting a black eye. The point is this is one persistent widow! I\u2019m reminded of that old Ruth Buzzi character in the 70s comedy variety show \u201cLaugh In\u201d named Gladys Ormphby, who would use her purse to wallop anyone who might take advantage of her.1\nWe are to be persistent in our prayers, all the way to the end of things, if necessary.\nThe Nature of Persistence and Prayerful Waiting\nLuke likely may have recounted this particular story to give comfort because of the concerns of early Christians about the perceived delay in Christ\u2019s return. We, too, are concerned about God\u2019s perceived delay in answering the prayers that he promised in other places to answer. Why might that be the case?\nAbout a year and a half ago I read an engaging book by James Emery White called \u201cThe Prayer God Longs For.\u201d The book is actually a commentary on the Lord\u2019s Prayer, but White touches on a few other things as well. What is interesting about the Lord\u2019s Prayer is that we are persistent in praying the words that Jesus taught us. We pray them every week in worship, and many of us pray them at home and at work. We pray even as we wait for the petitions of the prayer to be realized:\n\"Thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven\u2026\"\nWe continue to wait patiently for the Lord to come and bring forth a complete restoration of all creation, and the resurrection of the dead.\nWhite has this to say about persistent prayer:\n\u201cThe importance of praying in the realization that we pray to the God in heaven is not related to whether or not he responds in the way would most desire; the importance of praying to God in heaven is related to the faith that this is a God who can and does act. And that is the point.\u201d2\nWe pray to the God who can and does act. And when God does not respond the way we think God should, we need to ask ourselves a few questions.\nFirst, we should ask ourselves if the prayer we hope will be answered was something offered with pure intentions. Sometimes it pays to ask the question: \u201cIs this really what I want and need?\u201d The famous theologian Garth Brooks once said \u201csometimes God\u2019s greatest gift is unanswered prayer.\u201d But I wonder instead if God actually does answer, but the answer is, in fact, \u201cno\u201d or \u201cnot yet.\u201d3\nSecond, I wonder if we sometimes truly understand what we are praying for. If, for example, we pray for healing, what kind of healing might we mean? And are we open minded enough to believe that the healing God might bring to us may not be the healing we originally thought we needed?\nThird, do we listen in our prayers? I know I\u2019m guilty of this. I\u2019m probably able to deliver long prayer soliloquies in par with something William Shakespeare might right, but then I never leave room to listen for God\u2019s response. Do we miss things that God tells us, just because we\u2019re distracted? I think that does happen, and we ought to be on guard to make sure that we listen when we pray.\nAnd finally, our text today makes it clear that we might just have to wait in faith for the answer to our prayers.\nAnd the Lord said, \u201cListen to what the unjust judge says. And will not God grant justice to his chosen ones who cry to him day and night? Will he delay long in helping them? I tell you, he will quickly grant justice to them. And yet, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on earth?\u201d (Luke 18:6-8 NRSV)\nIf the judge who delays justice to the widow can eventually be persuaded, how much more can we expect our loving, sovereign, and just God to come to our aid when we pray! But if God tarries for our sake, will we remain persistent? Persistent even until Jesus returns? Faith is persistence, and faith, as we have seen, can give us persistence to cry out to God for justice all the way to the end of things, when justice will be just, full, and complete forevermore.\nThank God for the gift of prayer, which gives us the opportunity to speak with God. Thank God for the gift of Jesus Christ, who teaches us how to pray properly and persistently, so that our intentions in prayer might be more refined, and so that we might be able to discern God\u2019s just will for us in our lives. Thank God for the Holy Spirit, who sustains us when God, for our sake, tarries with His response to our prayer, and gives us faith that will sustain our persistence right up to the end, when Christ will come.\n1A decent overview of Buzzi\u2019s career can be found at Wikipedia here. \u21a9\n2White, James Emery.

        "raw_content": "https://www.chron.com/news/houston-texas/article/FDA-receives-complaint-about-Houston-company-that-3404270.php\nFDA receives complaint about Houston company that stored Gov. Perry's stem cells\nUpdated 5:51 am CDT, Wednesday, March 14, 2012\nRick Perry had back surgery last year. AP Photo/Austin American-Statesman, Ralph Barrera)\nThe U.S. Food and Drug Administration has received a complaint alleging the Houston company involved in Gov. Rick Perry's unregulated adult stem-cell operation is a potential danger to patients and not in compliance with federal law.\nIn an eight-page letter sent last month, University of Minnesota bioethicist Leigh Turner called on the FDA to investigate Celltex Therapeutics Corp., which banks people's stem cells for future reinjection in the event of disease or injury. Perry was the company's first customer last year.\n\"It appears their business plan involves injecting or infusing on a for-profit, commercial basis non-FDA-approved adult stem cells into paying customers,\" Turner wrote in the Feb. 21 letter. \"This plan conflicts with FDA regulations governing human stem cells.\"\nAn FDA spokeswoman declined comment, but Turner said an agency official told him the matter has been assigned to an investigator and is being taken seriously.\nCelltex co-founder David Eller said Tuesday night he is confident the company will \"meet all FDA specifications.\" He emphasized that Celltex doesn't administer stem cells, but stores and processes them at the behest of doctors who later re\u00adinject them into patients.\nDr. Stanley Jones, a Houston orthopedic surgeon, injected Perry's stem cells during his back surgery in July.\nThe plan by Celltex and Perry to make Texas a leader in the therapy have been controversial since details about the governor's procedure became known last summer. The therapy, drawing on the ability of adult stem cells to replenish dying cells, is promising but thought by most medical researchers to need much more clinical study before it is commercialized.\nStem cells are a kind of medicine known as biologics, therapy involving living cells rather than chemicals. Most medical experts say that adult stem-cell therapy involves more than the \"minimal manipulation\" the agency allows without its oversight because the cells are isolated, cultured in a laboratory and stored for some period of time before being reinjected.\nThe FDA has recently stepped up enforcement of unregulated adult stem cell activity, though legal experts interviewed last fall by the Chronicle said it was unclear whether the agency would look into Perry's procedure because he seemed fully informed and unharmed by it.\nThe Texas Medical Board is currently considering a policy that would require providers of stem cells and other experimental drugs to use them only with the permission of independent review committees that assess trials for patient safety. The policy comes up for final approval in April.\nEller said Celltex is now registered with such a review committee.\nTurner's letter lays out eight concerns about Celltex, including whether the stem cells it processes are safe and effective; noting deaths reported in Korea involving stem cells administered by its founding partner, RNL Bio; marketing that emphasizes cures and provides little or no information about risks; and the amount of unregulated stem-cell therapy already involving the company.\nEller said Celltex has stored the stem cells of more than 100 people so far. He estimated doctors have reinjected cells in 40 to 50 of them.\nA lawyer for Celltex wrote the FDA calling Turner's allegations \"false\" and arguing that the company ensures banked cells are genetically identical to the original and free of contaminants. The lawyer also asked the University of Minnesota what steps it will take, if it did not authorize the letter, to remove it from the Internet and \"prevent recurrence of this type of action by Turner.\"\nThe bioethicist was undeterred.\n\"Celltex charges over $20,000 for its role in providing stem cells,\" he said Tuesday. \"It's not clear that what people are receiving is safe, efficacious and administered with the knowledge and approval of the FDA. It seems to me that the FDA should investigate.\"",

        "raw_content": "This man paid over $2,000 in pennies to the DMV for his vehicle's sales tax\nWatch| Nick Stafford carried five wheelbarrows of pennies into the Department of Motor Vehicles in Lebanon, Virginia, on Wednesday to pay sales tax on two of his new cars. He said he wanted to give the DMV his two cents regarding a FOIA request he had made.\n\"Pennies weighed 1600 pounds\"\nThe pennies weighed in at 1,600 pounds and was worth $2,987.45, he collected hundreds of rolls of pennies he needed and hired 11 people to help him break open the paper rolls with hammers Tuesday night.\nStafford also purchased five wheelbarrows to deliver the pennies which cost $400, paid 11 people $10 an hour, costing him a total of $840 in the preparation alone, affiliate WJLA reported. Not to mention, he paid $165 for three lawsuits and the nearly $3,000 he paid the DMV for his cars.\n\"Bone to pick with the DMV\"\nStafford mentioned he had a bone to pick with the DMV, not about agonizingly long lines or a bad picture on his driver's license, but about 10 phone numbers. Stafford told his version of the story to the newspaper, it goes:\n\"Back in September, he wanted to know which of his four houses spanning two Virginia counties he should list when licensing his son's new Corvette. He attempted to call the Lebanon DMV but was routed to a call center in Richmond.\nHe then submitted an FOIA request a submission under the Freedom of Information Act that citizens, journalists, and others can use to obtain public government information to get a direct number to the Lebanon DMV, which he was provided. When Stafford called the number he was given, he said the employees at the DMV told him the phone line wasn't meant for public use. However, Stafford said after repeated phone calls, the DMV eventually answered his licensing question.\nHe then decided he wanted the direct phone lines to nine other local DMVs because his local DMV wouldn't provide those numbers.\nSo, he went to court to obtain them. The three lawsuits were filed against two specific employees at the Lebanon DMV and one against the DMV itself.\nThe phone numbers are irrelevant to me, I don't need them. I think I proved my point here.'\nA judge dismissed the lawsuits on Tuesday and a representative of the state's attorney general handed Stafford a list of the requested phone numbers in the courtroom.\n\"The phone numbers are irrelevant to me,\" Stafford said. \"I don't need them. I told the judge 'I think I proved my point here.'\"\nThe employees chose to count the coins by hand, and if you were wondering, Stafford is within his legal right to pay in pennies. According to the U.S. Department of the Treasury, \"United States coins and currency are legal tenders for all debts, public charges, taxes and dues\" under the Coinage Act of 1965.\nAs of 8 p.m. Wednesday evening, workers at the DMV were still counting coins and Stafford said he remained at the DMV until the counting was complete.",

Only later did we realize that this hero was born in Baltimore and only later moved to California where he met Captain Beefheart and formed his first band. Then, in 2008, Vilnius, Lithuania dedicated $50,000 to the city to erect a monument of the master in Highlandtown, at the library (the location was his wife's suggestion, because he was self-taught). It is, for all these reasons our best statue.

        "raw_content": "Bob Thomson: Blowing the whistle on Chile\u2019s 1973 brutality\nRelatives of victims tortured and executed during the rule of General Augusto Pinochet, take part in a rally marking the 1973 military coup in Valparaiso, September 5, 2013. PHOTO: REUTERS/Eliseo Fernandez.\nOriginally published for the National Post\nA flood of memories rushed to my mind when I was informed that CJFE would be honouring me for my role in shaping Canada\u2019s response to Chile\u2019s 1973 coup d\u2019\u00e9tat.\nMy action was a result of youthful anger at our ambassador at the time, Andrew Ross, for his apparent acceptance of violence against people he called \u201cthe riff-raff of the Latin American left.\u201d Following the coup d\u2019\u00e9tat, Augusto Pinochet\u2019s forces were killing and torturing thousands of people. Canada chose to recognize these thugs as the official Chilean government. It was the result, I thought, of our ambassador\u2019s reports and his judgment that the military would quickly restore democracy. As a junior foreign-aid bureaucrat working for the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA), I felt I had no power to influence government decisions.\nAs it turns out, I did have some power \u2014 the power of information. In leaking those cables (known as the Ross cables) to a member of Parliament, who exposed them in the House of Commons and released them to the press, I publicized a controversial point of view that brought out a flood of alternative expressions of the Chilean reality.\nBut that needs to be put into context. I was the guy who threw some gas on a fire and got burnt, losing my job at CIDA in the process. But there were many, many other actors: Canadians and Chileans who also were angry at the Canadian ambassador\u2019s perspective of what was happening in Chile. Church, union, NGO, human rights groups and a few sympathetic diplomats had a very different view of the coup than that of Ambassador Ross. They worked hard to change Canadian refugee policies, and successfully organized to bring thousands of Chileans to Canada. They played as important a role as me, and they too deserve to be honoured. (Bob Carty\u2019s 30-minute 2003 radio documentary \u201cThe Long Flight,\u201d produced for CBC\u2019s The Sunday Edition, is an excellent journalistic overview of this complex multi-actor process.)\nAfter losing my job at CIDA, I was never able to obtain security clearance for government employment. This was despite a 1985 recommendation from the Security Intelligence Review Committee (SIRC) that I be granted clearance, despite two Federal Court of Appeal decisions in my favour and despite a 1991 Supreme Court of Canada recommendation that the legislation governing SIRC be re-written if the body was to have the authority to effectively prevent such abuses by CSIS.\nI had an opportunity to visit Chile in May 1987 when I led an evaluation of post-earthquake housing projects supported by CIDA through Canadian churches and NGOs. General Pinochet was still in power, and on that trip I had what was the most frightening moment of my life.\nOn May 1, Santiago was blacked out because a guerrilla group had blown up crucial hydro pylons. The subway was closed, so I had to walk back to my hotel after dinner with visiting Canadian poets. I was stopped by a police patrol; they found pamphlets from that morning\u2019s May Day parade in my bag. Pointing their rifle barrels to my ribs, the officers proceeded to question me aggressively. I was terrified they\u2019d find the contact information for families of political prisoners a Canadian NGO had asked me to visit on their behalf. I cursed myself for having the information on my person and potentially exposing them to danger.\nBut in an amazingly ironic moment, the sergeant questioning me found a Canadian Embassy pamphlet signed by then ambassador Michel de Goumois , a pamphlet handed to me by the poets not half an hour before, inviting Chileans to a reading of Canadian works. He let me go. The next morning I recounted my story to a Catholic human rights worker while driving to a social housing conference. She told me that had I been a Chilean, the police would have taken me to a clandestine house, stripped me, hung me from my ankles, doused me with a bucket of cold water and returned three hours later to find out who I was. Cursed by one ambassador, I was inadvertently spared that ordeal by another.\nWhat have I learned during my 45-plus-year sojourn around Latin America and other parts of our diverse world, a voyage much changed by the altered career that followed my act of whistle blowing? Freedom of expression goes hand in hand with the voices of that expression. Free expressions come with implications that we can easily miss if we rely only on our own cultural narratives. Several years ago, for instance, an Algonquin friend told me I didn\u2019t understand something because my first language was English. She pointed out that the majority of words in English are nouns, while the majority of words in Anishinabe languages are verbs. They see the world from a perspective of action and process, while we see the world from a perspective of things. It was a profound revelation.\nIn regard to Chile, I was a catalyst in a complex, multi-actor process, and I have no regrets despite (perhaps even because of) the life-changing impact it had on me. I wasn\u2019t hurt as badly as Chelsea/Bradley Manning or Julian Assange or Edward Snowden have been for their recent whistle-blowing and their imprisonment or flight into exile. Or the many journalists in Canada and around the world, in both mainstream and alternative media, who risk their lives or reputations to bring us hidden facts, alternative voices and interpretations.\nIn 1998, I was attending an event and seated at the same table was a Chilean refugee. He told me he was in Canada thanks to some guy who leaked cables from the Canadian embassy. When one of my colleagues identified me as that whistleblower, the Chilean-Canadian got up, walked around the table and threw his arms around me.",

They were all adopted by someone who cared.\nNovember is National Adoption Awareness Month, and Gov. Steve Beshear has concurred, it is Adoption Awareness Month in Kentucky.\nThank you for printing the sample ballot in the paper, because if you had not, I would not have voted on the correct one.\nThe poll workers, the same ones who have been there year after year, did not hand me the correct ballot. In fact, they did not know whether to give many of the people a city or a county ballot. They were passing the people on to vote before they had checked the book. They were guessing.\nTaylor County Clerk's response\nTaylor County Clerk Mark Carney had this response:\nThanks for taking the time to share your experience and tell us about the concerns you had on Election Day. I am glad to hear how the ballot being printed in the paper is used by voters in preparation for the Election. The County spends lots of money every election to advertise the ballot in the newspaper. The cost of the advertisement depends upon the size of ballot. The cost to run the ballot in the paper this year was $589.68, but it is money well spent when voters take the time to review it.\nWhile we slept, Congress looted our Social Security\nHigh Social Security payroll taxes have contributed to yearly Social Security Trust Fund surpluses until the proclaimed surplus is now in excess of $2,140 billion ($2.14 trillion).\nHowever, Congress has elected to sacrifice Social Security on the alter of corruption by spending the entire surplus, requiring the U.S. Treasury to cover the embezzlement by issuing non-negotiable IOU bonds to the Trust Fund. Such irresponsible and reprehensible behavior should alert voters that no member of Congress has the integrity to be our president.\nLack of marching band hurts students\nNeedless to say, after having read Calen McKinney's column in which it stated the Campbellsville High School band program has declined tremendously, as well as not having a marching band this year, it greatly affected me. It was at that moment that I began to reflect of my years in the band.\nJuvenile arthritis a serious crisis\nWhen Senators Mitch McConnell and Jim Bunning return to Washington, D.C. after the November election for a \"lame duck\" session, they will have a final opportunity to complete work and pass the Arthritis Prevention, Control and Cure Act (H.R. 1283).\nDisappointed in alcohol decision\nMy name is Mae Kearney and I have lived in Taylor County most of my life. I lived in Green County briefly when I was a small child. I was totally disappointed in our county, when I saw the headlines of our local paper on Monday, Oct. 20 making a big deal of the first drink of alcohol legally served in Campbellsville in 71 years.\nRecently, there was a big issue about smoking in restaurants. So now you cannot smoke in restaurants, but you can drink alcohol. Isn't this trading one evil for another?\nThings won't change just because it's legal\nIf anyone assumes since it is now legal to sell alcoholic drinks with a meal at licensed restaurants in Campbellsville that it will stop the trips to \"wet\" counties for the usual drinking and buying of six packs, whiskey and wine, I have to say, \"You live in a dream world.\"\nActually think before choosing\nFor those who listen to mainstream media such as NBC, CBS and ABC, you do not get the truth. They make up the news instead of reporting it. The truth of Obama's policies is to remove any reference to God, to support and provide to abort/kill babies. He also voted if a baby lives through a botched abortion to kill them as well. He will and does provide for and support the homosexual lifestyle. He says they should receive special treatment and funds the same as a man/woman in marriage.\nDavid Boswell is most qualified\nWith the mess this country is in under a Republican president and the mess our ex-Republican governor left the state in, why would we want to turn the country over to more Republicans?",

        "raw_content": "Bishop Oyedepo Replies Presidency Over Alleged Cloning Of Buhari\nThe founder of Living Faith Church worldwide, Bishop David Oyedepo, has berated critics urging him to withdraw his statement concerning President Muhammadu Buhari having an impostor in Aso Rock.\nThe clergyman had said last week that it was possible Nigeria was being re-colonised by another African nation, referring to Nnamdi Kanu\u2019s claim.\nReacting to the rumour in a viral video on social media, Oyedepo quoted an article written by Olatunde Dare, a columnist of the Nation Newspaper, saying Buhari could have died when he sought medical treatment in London and that someone cloned as him, is currently presiding over Nigeria.\nReferring to the piece, the clergyman said the Nigerian government entered an agreement with the family of one Jubril in Sudan to give them a replacement for Buhari and that the resources of the nation are now being shared with Sudan.\nBut the Special Assistant to President Muhammadu Buhari on Digital and New Media, Tolu Ogunlesi, called the cleric \u2018hater of Buhari\u2019.\nOgunlesi wondered why Oyedepo would go to a far length to discredit Buhari.\nHowever, speaking from Living Faith church Headquarters at Canaan land, Ota, on Saturday, the clergyman vowed not to withdraw his statement because it was not a hate speech but rather that of a self-esteem.\nThe cleric said, \u201cI have never been asked to withdraw a statement in the past but today they are saying it is hate speech.\n\u201cThat is no hate speech, it is self-esteem speech; someone is stepping on toes and you say it is hate speech?\n\u201cWhy will I withdraw my statement? God sent me and not you. You fear the one God sent and not any other because I have dominion.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "HMO Houses in Multiple Occupation\nLandlords and Councils will no longer be faced with bureaucracy aimed at micro-managing rented housing, Housing Minister Grant Shapps confirmed today.\nThe Minister laid new regulations that could cut as many as 8,500 planning applications from the system, freeing up councils to focus on local priorities. Currently landlords have to submit a planning application to rent their properties to unrelated tenants \u2013 known as Houses in Multiple Occupation. Regulations published today will ensure councils only have to use this power where they know high concentrations of shared homes are a problem.\nToo many shared homes in one area can cause problems. A high number of short term tenants with little stake in the community can leave an area with an unloved look and feel, which can sometimes create seasonal ghost towns that harm local economies, anti-social behaviour and an increase in crime.\nBut the Minister said that a blanket requirement to manage these through the planning system is a drain on council resources, and threatens to drive good landlords away from the rental sector because of increased costs and red tape, therefore restricting availability of affordable homes for rent.\nCurrently up to 8,500 planning applications may be added to the system each year if every landlord looking to turn their property into a shared home is forced to submit an application, regardless of local circumstances.\n\u201cCouncils understand their local area best, and they don\u2019t need burdensome rules that assume housing issues in every town, village and hamlet are exactly the same. I am also committed to safeguard the supply of rented housing \u2013 shared homes are vital for people who want to live and work in towns and cities, and are important to the economy.\n\u201cThat\u2019s why I\u2019m giving councils greater flexibility to manage shared homes in their local area. Where there are local issues with shared homes, councils will have all the tools they need to deal with the problem \u2013 but they will avoid getting bogged down in pointless applications, and landlords won\u2019t be put off renting shared homes where they are needed.\u201d\n1. Councils are to be given more flexibility to manage shared homes in their area. The problems that arise from concentrations of shared homes are not widespread and the current requirement imposes an unnecessary burden on landlords and local planning authorities in those areas where shared homes are not a problem. It also runs the risk of reducing supply if landlords choose to move out of the sector rather than face the costs and delays of applying for planning permission.\n2. The definition of a small HMO (the C4 use class) will remain and permitted development rights will be extended to allow all changes between the C4 and C3 classes without the need for planning applications. In areas where there is a need to control HMO development, local authorities will be able to use an Article 4 direction to remove these permitted development rights and require planning applications for such changes of use.\n3. These proposals will mean that any change of use between dwelling houses and small HMOs will be able to happen without planning permission unless the local council believes there is problem with such development in a particular area. In these areas they will be able to use article 4 powers to require planning permission.\n4. Consultation with interested partners on this issue will ensure that the new rules work effectively for local people without placing an unnecessary burden on landlords and local planning authorities.\n5. The proposals are part of wider reform to the planning system so that it moves away from the current top-down approach and create a system which encourages local people to take responsibility for shaping their communities, and gives power to councils to make this happen.\nhttps://www.clifftons.com/hmo-houses-in-multiple-occupation/",

        "raw_content": "COMMENT: Proposed UN climate pact will only be a success if it manages to secure radical carbon cuts ahead of 2020\nMany of the Maldives outlying islands are under pressure from rising sea levels (Pic: Ahmed Amir/Creative Commons)\nBy Thoriq Ibrahim\nClimate change has long been an important issue for small island developing states (SIDS).\nIn fact, it was this early recognition of the consequences of climate change for small islands that led to the formation of the Alliance of Small Island States, 25 years ago this year and the legacy of our advocacy \u2013 and wide appreciation for our particular sustainable development challenges \u2013 bears out in the special recognition given to our group in international agreements over the decades.\nFor instance, The Future We Want reaffirmed that the adverse impacts of climate change on SIDS, including persistent drought and extreme weather events, sea-level rise, coastal erosion, and ocean acidification threaten our sustainable development efforts and, for many of us, represent an existential threat.\nIn fact, just this year we witnessed how real these threats are. Cyclones and typhoons left a trail of destruction across many of our member states; upending entire communities and killing many.\nFurthermore, such events are happening in the context of an average global temperature increase of less than 1 degree Celsius, reminding us that without bold and very urgent action, far worse is yet to come.\nAnalysis: UN climate talks and the Paris deal \u2013 a bluffer\u2019s guide\nTherefore, it is imperative that we conclude a new legally-binding agreement on climate change in Paris this year, applicable to all Parties, with a level of ambition sufficient to ensure a safe climate for current and future generations.\nIt is AOSIS\u2019 clarion and consistent call that we must limit global warming to well below 1.5 degrees above pre industrial level in order to significantly reduce the impacts and damages from climate change, including risks to food production and vulnerable ecosystems.\nThe weight of scientific evidence indicates that the current global goal of \u201cbelow 2C\u201d is too high, and in our view, presents unacceptable risks to SIDS.\n\u201c1.5 To Stay Alive\u201d has long been the AOSIS rallying cry, because it represents a level of global warming beyond which many vulnerable small island states will be simply overwhelmed.\nTo achieve this goal, AOSIS has emphasized the need to also rapidly scale up and implement mitigation solutions in the pre-2020 period.\nIn this effort, we reiterate developed countries\u2019 obligation to take the lead, both in reducing their own emissions, as well as scaling up the provision of climate finance for developing countries to $100 billion by 2020.\nAOSIS has also made very concrete proposals for increasing multilateral and multi-stakeholder cooperation in areas of high mitigation potential, such as renewable energy and energy efficiency.\nIt goes without saying that 2015 is a fortuitous year for SIDS and other vulnerable nations: We have finalized the multilateral frameworks for disaster risk reduction and are well on our way to concluding our frameworks for sustainable development and financing for development.\nWe fully recognize that the Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change is the primary international intergovernmental forum for negotiating the global response to climate change and we assure you of our firm commitment to achieving an ambitious climate change agreement in Paris.\nIndeed, we have already begun to lay a foundation for success, with important progress operationalizing the Green Climate Fund.\nWe encourage further contributions to the GCF in order to make it the transformative institution we envisioned in Cancun. To be sure, climate finance is a critical component of building trust.\nBut we, of course, all have a role to play in addressing climate change, and AOSIS members are committed to tabling our Intended Nationally Determined Contributions as soon as possible.\nWe thank Parties that have already come forward with their iNDCs. And I want to emphasise that the collective ambition of the iNDC presented in Paris should place the world on a pathway to achieving the 1.5 degree target.\nThoriq Ibrahim is Minister of Environment and Energy for the Maldives. This is an extract from a speech made at a high level UN meeting on climate change in New York on Monday June 29.\nFortress Maldives: Protecting islands against climate change comes at a price\nMarshall Islands foreign minister: \u2018We are facing a climate disaster\u2019\nRead more on: Comment | AOSIS | Maldives Comment",

Today, over 44 million Americans hold a total of $1.4 trillion in student loan debt.\nMany celebrities have spoken out about the issue of college affordability. But some have actually put their money where their mouths are, and have started programs that help pay to send students to college.\nHere's a look at what four celebrities are doing to help students foot the bill for higher education:\nBrad Barket | Getty Images\nIn May, rapper Nicki Minaj tweeted that she would help pay off her followers' student debt in exchange for proof that they were earning A's.\nA week later, the rapper proved that she was \"No Fraud\" by sharing a list of the debts she had already helped pay off. Her list of charitable deeds includes funding summer courses, paying off student debt and even buying some unexpectedly expensive text books.\nMost recently, Minaj stated that she intends to turn this practice into an official charity.\nBrooks Kraft | Getty Images\nTo mark the one-year anniversary of the release of her Peabody-Award-winning album \"Lemonade,\" Beyonc\u00e9 launched the Formation Scholarship program. The program will provide $25,000 scholarships to four female students studying creative arts, music, literature or African-American studies.\nThe program recently announced the four winners of the prize. Each of the scholars holds a 3.5 GPA or above and the group possesses a wide range of passions.\nFrederick M. Brown | Getty Images\nBeyonc\u00e9's husband Shawn Carter, also known as Jay Z, created the Shawn Carter Scholarship Fund in 2003. The scholarship offers grants, typically between $1,500 and $2,500, to students with a 2.0 GPA or higher to attend any accredited academic institution.\nSeventy-nine percent of Shawn Carter Scholars come from single-parent households, and 59 percent live below the national poverty line. Today, Shawn Carter Scholars attend 100 institutions across the country and can also apply for additional funding to study abroad.\nDavid Liam Kyle | Getty Images\nThrough the LeBron James Family Foundation (LJFF), basketball legend LeBron James helps pay for over 1,000 students to attend the University of Akron.\nThe LJFF begins working with students in the third grade. If these students have maintained a 3.0 GPA by their senior year of high school, they can attend the University of Akron for free.\nAt an event at Cedar Point Amusement Park in 2015, James said, \"These students have big dreams, and I'm happy to do everything I can to help them get there. They're going to have to earn it, but I'm excited to see what these kids can accomplish knowing that college is in their futures.\"\nDon't miss: Here's how much the average American in their 20s has in student debt",

        "raw_content": "Rep. Issa calls So. Calif. Edison tech layoffs 'deeply disturbing'\nThe California congressman wants to know whether the utility is abusing the H-1B visa program\nSenior Editor, Computerworld | Feb 7, 2015 10:11 AM PT\nThe layoffs of IT workers at Southern California Edison (SCE) has drawn the attention of U.S. Rep. Darrell Issa, (R-Calif.), who called reports that the H-1B visa program is being used to replace part of SCE's workforce \"deeply disturbing.\"\n\"Based on the information currently available, this appears to be an example of precisely what the H-1B visa is not intended to be: a program to simply replace American workers en masse with cheap labor from overseas,\" Issa said in a statement released late Friday.\nThe utility, southern California's largest, is cutting about 500 IT workers, 100 of them through voluntary departures and others through layoffs. IT employees say H-1B visa holders, working for the two outsourcers on the project, Infosys and Tata Consultancy Services -- both based in India -- are replacing them.\nThe layoffs began in August, and another group was due to be laid off on Friday; yet another group is scheduled to be laid off on March 6. The layoffs are expected to be completed by the end of March.\nIssa is the second U.S. lawmaker to draw attention to SCE's layoffs. On Thursday, U.S. Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-Ala), who heads the immigration subcommittee, raised concerns as well on the floor of the Senate.\nIssa said that current law \"requires that an employer certify that the hiring of an H-1B applicant 'will not adversely affect the working conditions of workers similarly employed,' in keeping with the program's intent of injecting new talent into the economy, rather than merely replacing current workers with lower paid counterparts.\"\nIssa also wrote, \"I urge Southern California Edison to be forthcoming in releasing information about the process behind this decision, and I look forward to a thorough and transparent account of what attempts were made to ensure this major hiring decision adheres to the very clear statutes outlining the intended structure of the H-1B visa program.\"\nTo prevent replacing U.S. workers, Issa, in his statement, pointed to legislation that he co-sponsored in the last session of Congress, the Skills Visa Act. (HR 2131), which he said \"includes stronger prevailing wage protections to ensure that companies aren't simply using the program to replace existing workers with lower cost imported labor.\"\nThe Skills Visa Act would also significantly increase the H-1B cap, and has been backed by Compete America, a leading lobbying group on immigration issues for the tech industry.\nThis legislation would increase employment green cards for skilled labor, and raises the H-1B base cap from its current 65,000 to 155,000. The cap for advanced degree holders from U.S. schools would double, from 20,000 to 40,000.\nAmong the critics of the Skills Visa Act, is The Economic Policy Institute (EPI), which published a briefing paper that looked at the impact of the bill and the Senate's failed comprehensive immigration reform bill (S. 744). It said that if either bill were adopted \"a conservative estimate is that there will be 180,000 new college-educated IT workers under 30 years old entering the labor market every year via guestworker visas or STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) green cards.\"\n\"If this occurs, each year the number of new IT guestworkers and STEM green card beneficiaries will be greater than the number of new hires of young IT college graduates in 2011,\" argued the EPI. The report was authored by Hal Salzman, a professor of public policy at Rutgers; Daniel Kuehn, a researcher at the Urban Institute; and Lindsay Lowell, director of policy studies at the Institute for the Study of International Migration at Georgetown University.\nThe EPI paper also said that \"the large supply of young guestworkers not only provides competition to new U.S. graduates, but also provides a large supply of younger, lower-paid workers who can substitute for older workers.\"",

We offer a wide variety of ARMs to fit your unique needs, including 5/1, 7/1 and 10/1 ARMs.\nWhy consider an ARM?\nARMs generally have the lowest possible mortgage rate. In fact, 7/1 ARM rates may have significantly lower rates than a 30 year fixed rate mortgage. The 7/1 ARM rate would be fixed for seven years, potentially saving you in interest expense that you could use, for example, to pay off credit card debt, or add to your retirement savings.\nYOU PLAN TO SELL YOUR HOUSE SOON\nIf you plan to sell your home before the loan adjusts, you may save money versus a fixed-rate loan. For example, if a job transfer is likely, an ARM would be a better solution than a higher rate, 30-year fixed-rate mortgage. The lower initial rate of an ARM can be a good strategy for mobile professionals, homeowners who plan to upsize or downsize, and anyone who will live in their home for the short term.\nYOU WANT \"MORE HOUSE\"\nBy applying for an ARM, you may qualify for a higher loan amount and can buy a more valuable house.",

Live on the phone with me today I have Kwame Christian in Columbus, Ohio. Kwame is an attorney who focuses on conflict resolution and contract negotiation. He\u2019s also a negotiation consultant, negotiation trainer, and host of the negotiate anything podcast. Kwame, thank you for joining me today.\nKWAME CHRISTIAN: Hey Angela, thanks for having me.\nANGELA COPELAND: Well I am so excited. We met a few months ago at Podcast Movement, and you teach people how to do what I think is the most important part of getting a job, which is salary negotiations. I am so excited.\nKWAME CHRISTIAN: Yeah, I\u2019m excited to talk about it. This is going to be a fun one.\nANGELA COPELAND: Well, so the very first, most basic thing is I\u2019m always trying to convince people that salary negotiation is important, that they need to do it. And tell me, why is it important to you? Why should we do it?\nKWAME CHRISTIAN: It\u2019s important for a number of ways. I think the obvious one is the money. Studies have shown that if you don\u2019t take the time to negotiate, you could over the course of your lifetime miss out on over $500,000 on the low end, and if you are one of those higher trajectory type of professionals, well over a million easily, when you consider the compound effect of the money that\u2019s lost and the investment opportunities that you\u2019ve missed, the opportunity cost of losing that money. Another missed opportunity that comes when people don\u2019t take the time to negotiate is the opportunity to get respect. I remember hearing the story of somebody who was a consultant, I believe it was at a managing consulting firm. And they lost a lot of respect for the candidate because she didn\u2019t negotiate. They thought potentially if it was a mistake because they were wondering if she would be able to negotiate and advocate on behalf of the company if she wasn\u2019t able to negotiate on behalf of herself. And so when it comes to this, it\u2019s not just the amount of financial value that you can gain from that interaction. It\u2019s also the opportunity to display your negotiation and dispute resolution skills, because as we move forward in this world, those are going to be the types of skills that really set people apart, the ability to connect and persuade.\nANGELA COPELAND: Wow, you put that really well, and I love the fact that you mention the company expected her to negotiate and they lost respect when she didn\u2019t.\nKWAME CHRISTIAN: Mmhmm.\nANGELA COPELAND: So for a lot of us, the reason that we\u2019re not negotiating, part of it is that we\u2019ve never done it before, and it makes us uncomfortable, and not only does it make us uncomfortable, it\u2019s stressful, it causes anxiety. It just causes us to feel bad. And I know you\u2019ve got to work with your clients on this. How do you get people to try to reduce the stress and anxiety that it causes when they\u2019re actually having that negotiation?\nKWAME CHRISTIAN: Yeah, and this question is really close to my heart, because this is something that I struggled with. I was a kind of guy who was afraid of public speaking. I was afraid of conflict or any kind of difficult conversation. I used to shy away from that. This is very much learned, and so if I can get to where I am doing what I\u2019m doing with this skill, anybody can, really. And one of the best ways to address this type of fear when it comes to the anxiety that you feel with these types of social interactions, and you could actually extrapolate to this similar fears like fear of speaking, is we need to re-conceptualize the way that we think about the physiological experience of anxiety. And so my background is psychology. That was my first academic love. And so when it comes to our appraisal of emotions, it\u2019s really limited. As humans, we only have a small array of feelings that we can feel. So for example, if you go to a movie, and it\u2019s a scary movie, your heart rate will elevate, you might perspire a little bit, and you might experience a shortness of breath. If you have a crush on someone and that dreamy person happens to walk into the room and looks into your eyes and says, \u201cHey, what\u2019s up\u201d in that really dreamy way, you know, we will experience shortness of breath, a little bit of perspiration, and our heart rate will elevate. Those are the exact same things. The only thing that differs is our appraisal, our interpretation of what we are feeling. And so now when I go into a conflict, if I\u2019m negotiating, or if I\u2019m public speaking, I still have those exact same feelings that I did back when I was afraid. The only thing that\u2019s changed is my appraisal of that feeling. So now when I go into those conversations and I feel that physiological response, I interpret it as excitement. I am excited because this means that I am in a situation where I have an opportunity to move my career forward. This is an opportunity. This is an exciting thing. One of my favorite athletes, Billie Jean King, would say, \u201cPressure is a privilege, not something to shy away from.\u201d If you are feeling that, that means you are in a position that matters. And so I wouldn\u2019t endorse doing something and saying something to try and reduce that, because studies have shown the intent to try to reduce those feelings often causes the opposite effect, where we get more stressed out by it. Walk right into it, embrace it, and recognize that this pressure is a privilege, and reinterpret it as excitement and enthusiasm instead of fear.\nANGELA COPELAND: Oh, I like that. So it\u2019s interesting that you mention that even you initially even avoided the conflict that came with negotiation. I know for me, I came from a family that told me, do not negotiate, and they were very judgmental about the idea of negotiation, and so my very first job I did not negotiate. Where did your avoiding conflict come from? Was it also, did you have that since you were a kid?\nKWAME CHRISTIAN: Yeah, I\u2019m laughing now, because before the conversation Angela and I were talking about my TEDTalk that\u2019s coming up, and this is something that I talk about verbatim in it, because I had to do a lot of introspection to figure out where that fear came from. So I grew up in a really small town. I was in the Midwest. My family is from the Caribbean, so I had a really strong Caribbean accent growing up, and I was one of the few minorities in the town. So I would say that the only black people in the city were me, my mom, my dad, and my brother. And so we looked different, we sounded different, we stood out. And so what I realized is, I became really friendly. I recognized I had to make the first move to make people feel comfortable with my presence, and because of that, I became really hesitant when it came to engaging in any kind of conflict and confrontation. Even if I knew I was in the right, I wouldn\u2019t do that because I didn\u2019t want to jeopardize those relationships that I worked so hard to create. And that type of people-pleasing mentality permeated my mind through college, through law school, until I came to a point where I decided I needed to make a change if I wanted to be the professional I knew I could be. You can\u2019t be a walkover lawyer. That doesn\u2019t make any sense. That\u2019s not very valuable. So using my background in psychology, I recognized that one of the best ways to get over phobias is through something called flooding, and that\u2019s where you hyper-expose yourself to the scary stimulus. And so what I engaged in was what I called rejection therapy, because what I was afraid of was social rejection. So I intentionally created these experiences where I would put myself in a position where it would be likely for me to get rejected. It would be like me going to a coffee shop, and let\u2019s say it was my birthday, and I was mentoring a young college student at the time, and so they said, \u201cHey, we see it\u2019s your birthday on your card. Happy birthday. Here\u2019s a free pastry.\u201d And I\u2019m like, \u201cOh, well thank you. Well, my mentee is here. Can he have a free pastry too?\u201d Now we had no right, no right to get a pastry. I am doing this with the hope and expectation of getting rejected. But I got it. I got it. Which is cool. But there a lot of times when I get engaged in this practice, and I still do it, and I get rejected. And there are two benefits. If I get rejected, that shows me hey, you got rejected, you didn\u2019t die, everything\u2019s fine, and so that makes me more likely to stand up for myself and ask for what I want boldly when it matters, because I\u2019m familiar with operating through that fear. And then on the other hand, it works and I get what I want. So it\u2019s a win-win situation. And what\u2019s interesting is as you start to engage in rejection therapy, you want to start to ask yourself, how many of these things have I been needlessly holding back fro myself, simply because I didn\u2019t ask? And that\u2019s one of the most beautiful things about negotiation, because a negotiation is a conversation where somebody in the conversation wants something. And so when you take that really broad definition, you realize that we\u2019re really negotiating all the time. And this increases your negotiation awareness. you realize that we\u2019re negotiating all the time. And now this increases your negotiation awareness. By engaging in rejection therapy, it increases your willingness to act and take action in those situations. So you\u2019re just creating new opportunities to negotiate and get more for yourself in all facets of your life every day, both at home and at work.\nANGELA COPELAND: Oh, I love that, and I can\u2019t wait to watch your TEDTalk about it.\nKWAME CHRISTIAN: Yeah, thank you! Thank you, thank you.\nANGELA COPELAND: That is excellent. Well, so, I want to jump back to, stay on the topic for a second of fear. One of the biggest fears that people always express to me is, they are afraid that if they do try to negotiate, if they do try to push through the fear, that the company is going to take away the offer. And I always like to ask people if they\u2019ve ever seen this, because I have never seen this. I have never had this happen to me. I think probably for me, the worst thing I\u2019ve had is maybe the company said, well, we\u2019re offering you the most we can offer, we can\u2019t go any higher. But I\u2019ve never had a company say, \u201cNever mind, we\u2019re taking the offer back.\u201d Have you ever seen that happen?\nKWAME CHRISTIAN: Yes.\nANGELA COPELAND: You have!\nKWAME CHRISTIAN: Yes, and I\u2019m glad that I have. Here\u2019s why. So as you know, I consult with people who want to get more out of their salaries. That\u2019s one of the things that I offer. And so there was one person I was working with, and she gave a reasonable counter, and the people rescinded the offer. And before she did this, at the time I felt really guilty, because before she did this, I was like, \u201cIt is so unlikely. I\u2019ve never seen a rescinded offer.\u201d And then the offer got rescinded. I was like, \u201cOh, my gosh, I did this to this young woman. What have I done?\u201d But I said this, I said this at the time. That is unreasonable. It is very rare that that happens. The fact that they rescinded the offer is most likely indicative of something you want to avoid in that workplace. And so I met with her for coffee about three months ago. That was about a year after the offer was rescinded. And she said, \u201cHey, Kwame, so guess what? Since they rescinded my offer, they\u2019ve gone through four directors at that place, and they came back and offered me exactly what I was asking for.\u201d And I said, \u201cNo, because there\u2019s clearly something broken in your organization that you\u2019ve gone through four people in less than a year. That\u2019s insane.\u201d And so if you get somebody who rescinds your offer, that is a great thing, because you probably are dodging a bullet, because that is not a good sign when it comes to an organization. If you open dialogue about your compensation and they shut it down immediately, it\u2019s probably indicative a larger issue within that organization.\nANGELA COPELAND: I tend to agree. I\u2019ve always told people I\u2019ve never seen it happen, but if it does, maybe that\u2019s not the right company, because it\u2019s just so unusual, and it\u2019s really unreasonable. I mean, you kind of used that language when you started. She gave a reasonable counter, and then to have this happen, that\u2019s just nuts. Wow.\nKWAME CHRISTIAN: It is, and one thing I\u2019ll say, following up on what you said, is sometimes they say, this is the most we could possibly do. That\u2019s good. There\u2019s a strong camp in negotiation theory that says we need to go for no, and actually it\u2019s funny that I say the word camp, because the author of the book is Jim Camp, and the book is called \u201cGo For No.\u201d Because if you don\u2019t catch the boundaries of the deal, then we really don\u2019t know how far we\u2019ve gone, whether or not we\u2019ve been able to maximize value. Think about it more in a philosophical way with regard to your life. If you don\u2019t test the boundaries of your life, you\u2019ll never know how high you can fly because you\u2019ve never tried. And so when it comes to these types of negotiations, don\u2019t be afraid to push until they say no, because then you know you\u2019ve reached your boundaries. And then when it comes to salary negotiations, the big thing that we\u2019re focusing on is the number, the ultimate number for the compensation, but with the negotiation, what you want to do, especially in salary negotiations, is once we feel as though we have maximized the value of compensation with regard to the salary, that\u2019s when we shift the negotiation to non-monetary issues. Because we want to get the most we can with that big number, and now, I\u2019ve accomplished that goal, let me see what I can do with vacations, let me see what I can do with bonuses, sick days, etc.\nANGELA COPELAND: Yeah, I mean, where do you typically start after salary? Do you usually go to vacation?\nKWAME CHRISTIAN: Well, it depends on the client. It depends on what their interests are. And that\u2019s why, whenever it comes to negotiation, we need to take the time to prepare, not just with regard to our strategy and tactics, but with an internal audit of what we really want. Like, the podcast episode I\u2019m posting today talks about five sources of wealth, and I\u2019m going to look bad now because I can only remember a few of them, but it\u2019s money, it\u2019s time, it\u2019s relationships, and some other things, but the thing is, if we are somebody who really values relationships, like our relationship with our family, that\u2019s going to be strongly correlated with time, and if we focus so much on maximizing value in the salary to the detriment of our time, we might end up with a net negative on this deal, because we focused so much on what we thought we should, what society says we should focus on, to the detriment of what we really do care about. So there needs to be an internal audit to see what\u2019s important. Most people, next comes vacation or benefits. If it\u2019s somebody with a family, it\u2019s often benefits. But for me, I kind of look at it differently. I would go for vacation time next, or maybe flex time.\nANGELA COPELAND: Yeah, yeah. I think for my last two full-time jobs, I negotiated for four weeks of vacation each time, and when I talk to people about that, they get really surprised, because they say, \u201cWell, I thought the company policy was two weeks.\u201d And it\u2019s like, \u201cWell it is until you ask for more than two weeks.\u201d\nKWAME CHRISTIAN: Exactly. Exactly.\nANGELA COPELAND: But we\u2019re talking a lot about sort of what happens at the end of the whole job interview process. In my view, negotiation actually really starts with the very first phone call and the very first conversation, which is often with a human resources person and they call you and they\u2019re pretty chill and they say, like, \u201cOh, I got your resume, it looks really nice. what does your calendar look like to meet with the hiring manager?\u201d And you\u2019re having a normal conversation, and all of a sudden, they\u2019ll say something like, \u201cOh by the way, how much do you make?\u201d And that\u2019s to me where it really begins. And I\u2019m curious how do you advise your clients to answer this question how much do you make?\nKWAME CHRISTIAN: Right. And before I answer that, I want to address something earlier which was brilliant. The negotiation starts well before the time that we think it does. If there\u2019s one thing I really want everybody to get in addition to enhancing your recognition of opportunities to negotiate, it\u2019s also acknowledging the fact that there is no real beginning and end to a negotiation. There is no proverbial negotiation table that signifies when the negotiation starts and ends. We\u2019re constantly positioning ourselves to be in the best persuasive position as possible, and so this dovetails exactly, like, perfectly into what you were talking about now with regards to addressing our previous salaries. Now best case scenario, they don\u2019t ask that, but hoping that somebody doesn\u2019t ask is not a strategy. So let\u2019s not even talk about that. What we need to do here is, we want to avoid anchoring ourselves downward, and so anchoring is a psychological principle whereby the first number that is discussed is going to have a disproportionate amount of persuasive value with regard to the rest of the conversation. And so when it comes to our previous compensation, let\u2019s say we\u2019re trying to get over that six figure hump, and our previous salary was 80,000, the 80,000 almost becomes a reference point for the remainder of the negotiation. So we don\u2019t want that to be there. So we have two options. Either we make sure that it is not used a reference point, or if it is shared, we obliterate it and make it seem illegitimate. So how do we do that? So if they ask for the salary, what I would say is something to the effect of, let\u2019s say you\u2019re the HR person that I\u2019m talk to you. \u201cAngela, I think I can definitely appreciate why that would be important, but I don\u2019t feel comfortable sharing my salary with you and here\u2019s why. I want to make sure that for this new opportunity that I\u2019m compensated in accordance to the metrics that would make my salary commensurate with the going rate on the market and something that\u2019s commensurate with the amount of experience that I have in the industry. So I want those to be the metrics that we use to determine my future salary.\u201d And just kind of leave it at that. And what I would say is, with regard to these questions that are difficult that we know are coming, we should have our response down, nice and crisp, two to three sentences, and know exactly what we want to say. I\u2019m not somebody who typically advocates for pre-rehearsed lines, like zingers or something like that, but in these difficult situations, where we know there is a potentially serious question coming up that could have a deleterious effect on the rest of the negotiation, we need to be ready for it. And especially in these situations where we\u2019re stressed out, the stress hormone of cortisol is permeating through our veins, which actually inhibits clarity of thought, we can\u2019t just leave that up to chance to freestyle it. Now, oftentimes it is unavoidable, and we don\u2019t want to be weird or rude. We don\u2019t want either of those things to be true for us. So if they push and say, sorry we need to have it down, then go ahead and share it. But if that is brought up later, what I would say is, \u201cWithout being disrespectful to my previous employer, I do believe that I was under-compensated for this job because of xyz reason.\u201d And then what I would do is bring in legitimate criteria to justify what you believe you\u2019re worth right now, based on a market analysis and a consideration of what you have brought to the table as far as your experience. Now, in this conversation, we\u2019re kind of coming close to offers, and when it comes to offering, the rule of thumb in negotiation is, whenever you have more information, you make the first offer, and whenever they have the more information, they make the first offer. And so in this situation, they know the market better than you, most likely, but they definitely know their finances better than you do, so you need to sit back, see what their offer is, and then they can counter with what you brought to the table with your objective criteria, your evidence.\nANGELA COPELAND: I think that\u2019s all excellent advice. You know, I think also you kind of mention being ready for their response, so you can be prepared. And I know for me, like, the most extreme example I had, I was interviewing for a job in New York, and the human resources person was very aggressive, very direct, and I was trying various ways to get around giving my number, and she just said, \u201cAngela, if you don\u2019t give me a number right now, we\u2019re going to end this call.\u201d And I just really calmly said, \u201cI totally understand. Thank you for your time. It was great to meet you. I hope you have a great day.\u201d And I think that just really stopped this person in their tracks, because I wasn\u2019t afraid of that, and I knew there was some reason that if I had shared my number, I would have lost out. I was in such a different place financially that I wouldn\u2019t have been considered. And in that case, they happened to make an exception. She called me the next day and said, \u201cWe\u2019re going to keep interviewing you.\u201d She clearly had a bit of a grudge about it. But I think you have to be ready, because this is a really uncomfortable situation for both you and for either that either hiring manager or the HR person, and they may not handle it super-smoothly either, and you just have to be ready either to kind of roll with it and think of, how do I want to respond to that other person\u2019s, whatever they say.\nKWAME CHRISTIAN: Absolutely, and I think that was a brilliant response, by the way.\nANGELA COPELAND: Well, I mean, if I had needed that job, or I\u2014I really felt like I would have no shot in that situation, so there was a really good reason why I was protecting the number in that moment. So sometimes it does make sense to reveal the number and explain it, but I was not fortunate enough to be in that type of situation at that time. But you just never know what they may say back to you. So anyway, I like the fact also you mentioned sort of who has the most information. So I assume, based on kind of what you said also, is that if we don\u2019t have to bring this up, we should not bring this up, I\u2019m assuming.\nKWAME CHRISTIAN: Oh yes, I\u2019m assuming, unless they give you an offer that is less than your previous salary or equal to. Then we can say, well I might as well just stay at that point. That\u2019s when I would bring it up. And in one of my recent negotiations working with an executive who was switching jobs, that\u2019s what happened to him. They were offering less than what he was currently making. And it was tough because he was laid off at the time, and he was trying to get back to the industry, but that served as a strong anchor, because he knew what was he worth in the market. He wasn\u2019t fired for poor behavior. They just had rounds of layoffs, and he happened to be one of the casualties. But it worked. We were able to get his salary up probably $20-30,000 from what they were initially offering, which is substantial. So if it works for you, use it.\nANGELA COPELAND: Well, I think it\u2019s really important to think about that. You said $20 or $30,000. I\u2019ve helped clients to do similar things, and I think it\u2019s a really compelling number, when you think about, you know, I\u2019m avoiding this because it\u2019s really stressful, this negotiation, I\u2019m avoiding it because it causes me anxiety. And I always say, you know, if I told you for a little bit of stress, like, a little bit, you could make $20 or $30,000, would you do it? And the answer is usually yes. And I just think if you can put that into perspective, that little bit of stress or little bit of anxiety is worth it.\nKWAME CHRISTIAN: Absolutely, and the thing is, the negotiation provides you with the opportunity to have the highest value conversations that you could possibly have, because when else in your life will you be operating at an hourly rate of tens of thousands of dollars per hour? That\u2019s an unprecedented opportunity, and so thinking about it that way kind of gives you a little bit more of an impetus to have these conversations, because the value is worth it.\nANGELA COPELAND: Yeah, that\u2019s when you\u2019ve got to do it. You can\u2019t go take a job and think you\u2019re going to get your foot in the door and then negotiate in like a year, because that\u2019s not going to happen. It\u2019s now.\nKWAME CHRISTIAN: Yeah, because you\u2019re setting a precedent. If you\u2019re setting a precedent of not negotiating, they\u2019re going to be less likely to negotiate with you down the road.\nANGELA COPELAND: And when people want to negotiate more money for the same job, it\u2019s like, well, I already pay you let\u2019s say $80,000 a year to do this job. Why would I now a year later pay you $100,000 a year to do the same job? That\u2019s not the time to ask. You\u2019ve already shown that you\u2019ll take that much. Well, so there\u2019s another thing I wanted to kind of touch on, and you talk about this in your podcast, and I do say with regards to this question, how much do you make, on the good news front, I keep seeing that more states and more cities are outlawing this question, or are outlawing that you ask about salary history. So I would definitely check out what\u2019s the law in your local area, but one of the reasons that they are outlawing is it that they feel that it kind of creates discrimination essentially that\u2019s making it so people who have been paid unfairly in the past will be paid unfairly in the future. And you actually have a podcast episode where you talk about negotiating away the wage gap. You know, what advice do you have for us if we feel like this is happening to us, and how can we essentially negotiate it away?\nKWAME CHRISTIAN: Yeah. It is very tough, and this is the thing, and like you were saying, the previous salary question has a disproportionately negative impact on women and minorities, just because of the biases that are in the workplace. So it\u2019s difficult, and especially when it comes to negotiating while a woman, I have not done this, but I have read many an article, and this is one of my passions, to try and share this particular message, because it\u2019s important, one of the most pressing issues in negotiation that we face in our society today, I think. And so when it comes to these types of situations, you need to have a really strong sense of your value. You need to focus on what it is you are worth to the organization and what it is that your level of experience and your personal attributes can bring to the table. And so a lot of times, when it comes to men in negotiations, competence is assumed, leadership ability, that\u2019s assumed, and so it\u2019s not as difficult for us to make that case, whereas when you are a female trying to make those same types of arguments, you\u2019re going to need to be ready to substantiate those types of claims. That\u2019s one thing. Another thing, another issue that women face, or women and minorities, I\u2019ll say it this way, is the various types of stereotypes that you\u2019ll face. Now for the sake of simplicity we\u2019re going to focus on two types of stereotypes here. You have descriptive stereotypes and prescriptive stereotypes. So a descriptive stereotype describes what somebody in your position or in your group should do. It describes what you are like. So for instance, a descriptive stereotype of a black male is somebody who is aggressive and most likely not as educated. So as a result of me knowing what the descriptive stereotype is for me, I always lead with, whenever I\u2019m introducing myself or sending emails or something like that, I\u2019m a stickler when it comes to adding all of the letters that I\u2019ve earned at the end of my name. So it\u2019s always Kwame Christian, ESQ, MA. So it\u2019s like, oh, he\u2019s a lawyer and he has a masters. That\u2019s impressive. So it\u2019s psychologically overcoming that barrier, this guy is intelligent. And the next step is, being that step who is taking the first step to make people feel comfortable. So I\u2019m very friendly, smile a lot, so I\u2019m trying to overcome those almost invisible negotiations before the conversation even starts. Now, for women, it\u2019s a little bit trickier, because women deal with prescriptive stereotypes. So a prescriptive stereotype prescribes how you should act in a given situation, which I think might be more detrimental when it comes to handling yourself in negotiations. So when a male acts in an assertive way, it\u2019s seen as, oh, you are being a leader. That is what you should do as a male. That is impressive and we respect you for that. Whereas if a woman would say or do the exact same thing, it would be taken in a different way, because it goes against the prescriptive stereotype. And so as a result, what the studies have shown, when it comes to negotiating, through bias as a woman, you almost have to lean into the prescriptive stereotype and couch all of your arguments in terms of collaboration. And so when you\u2019re talking about your leadership abilities, a male might be able to get away with saying, \u201cI was able to accomplish this,\u201d blah blah blah blah blah, focusing on me, me, me, me, me, whereas a woman would need to change what she\u2019s saying a little bit to say, \u201cAs our team was able to accomplish xyz while I was at the helm.\u201d So it\u2019s a small, little change in semantics that shows a little bit more collaboration. Then when it comes to asking for more on the salary, the change that I would make is, \u201cI want to make sure that I am properly incentivized to work as hard as I can for this team, because I really respect the organization. The people on the team are great, and I want to have the opportunity to work with it.\u201d And so you\u2019re constantly couching what you\u2019re saying in terms of collaboration. Is it fair? No. Is it effective? Yes. And so when it comes to determining the way you want to handle these negotiations, it really has to come down to your personal philosophy. Do you want to lean into the stereotype in order to get more of what you want, or do you want to make a stand and speak the way that you want to speak and use just standard negotiation techniques. And that\u2019s really a personal decision. I can\u2019t say you should do one thing versus the other. But I think it is important to be aware of the different types of stereotypes that affect you in order for you to create an intelligent strategy around it.\nANGELA COPELAND: Absolutely. I mean, I hate that reality, but I think it\u2019s important to be aware of it so you can work with it. Well so, say that we\u2019re ready to actually have that negotiation, and we want to ask for more money. How do you initially begin that conversation?\nKWAME CHRISTIAN: In this hypothetical, are we saying that we are currently working in the organization, or we have received an offer for the new organization?\nANGELA COPELAND: New organization. That\u2019s my favorite.\nKWAME CHRISTIAN: Gotcha. Okay, cool. So here\u2019s one of my favorite techniques. I use it in almost all of my negotiations. I used it this morning. I\u2019m a mediator, too, so I do some mediation too. And so the question I love to ask is, \u201cWhat flexibility do you have with this offer?\u201d And the thing that I really appreciate about this question is that it\u2019s open-ended, which is my favorite kind of question, and the difference between open-ended and close-ended is that close-ended can be answered in a monosyllabic response, which doesn\u2019t give you much information, but open-ended questions draw out elaboration where you can get more information, and information is the lifeblood of negotiation. That\u2019s the first thing. The second thing is it assumes flexibility. And so we\u2019re not asking, are you able to change this? Can you give me more? Something like that. We\u2019re assuming that there is flexibility, so we want them to search the archives of their mind to see what type of flexibility they have there. So those are the two most powerful elements of that question. And the next one, strategically, is that it gets them to negotiate against themselves. Because remember, since they have more information, we sat back and waited for them to come up with an offer. They\u2019ve made an offer, and they might say, \u201cHey, we are giving you $120,000 per year, when can you start?\u201d And you say, \u201cWhat flexibility do you have?\u201d Now like I said, they are negotiating against themselves, so it gives them an opportunity to make a mistake of doing your job for you. And you want them to do that before you even come up with your own counter. So that is the the benefit of that question. So when it comes to salary negotiation, if you get an offer, I think the best way to open up that conversation is by simply inviting them to negotiate against themselves by answering the question, \u201cWhat flexibility do you have?\u201d\nANGELA COPELAND: Oh, I love that. And then say we get to the point where we have agreed upon an offer with the company. We\u2019re on the same page. I know that you recommend getting the offer in writing. Can you share with us why it\u2019s so important to get the offer in writing?\nKWAME CHRISTIAN: Yeah. As lawyers, we love to create paper trails, especially when they\u2019re positive. So if you get the deal that you want, you want that to be written down as soon as possible for two reasons: deception and forgetfulness. Sometimes if you get a really good deal, they might want to change it by kind of pretending that they\u2019ve made an innocent mistake, and that\u2019s rare. I don\u2019t see that type of malice happening often, but I know it could happen, so you want to make sure that you have it in writing. The next one is forgetfulness. That happens. We\u2019re humans. So we have this conversation, and then a couple of days pass, and they say, \u201cOh, I forgot to send Angela that email. Let me send her that offer.\u201d And because they were negotiating, the number was different from what they originally had, they might make an honest mistake, and now you have to have another negotiation, or at least a difficult conversation about the number that you already agreed upon. And you have to do more work. And so what I do in these situations, and this is something that you can borrow in any type of situation, in a general business context, I do this with my spouse, via text not via email, but what I do is after I get a deal that I like, like the outlines of a deal that I like, I send the person an email and I say, \u201cHey, Angela, it was great chatting with you today. I\u2019m really looking forward to working with you at the rest of the team. Just wanted to make sure that we\u2019re on the same page with regards to this agreement. If I got anything wrong, let me know, and we can work that out, but it\u2019s my understand that this salary would be $150,000 a year, four weeks of vacation, and x amount going to my 401k. Is that correct?\u201d So you give them an opportunity to correct you if you\u2019re wrong anywhere. And now, if that same misunderstanding happens down the road, what ends up happening is you can say, \u201cOh, I\u2019m sorry, based on the email I sent you on October 16, this was my understanding. Is that wrong? Because you didn\u2019t correct me when I sent you that email.\u201d So that\u2019s how you want to at least start to etch that, because they\u2019re always going to be in charge of drafting the contract. That would be really strange if you had your lawyer draft up your own employment contract. That would be weird. But at least you would have the parameters outlined so you lock that in so there wouldn\u2019t be any confusion.\nANGELA COPELAND: That makes total sense. Say that there\u2019s a reason that we want to walk away, and we\u2019ve negotiated what we wanted, and then maybe we got a counteroffer from someone else, like a competitive offer, and we\u2019ve decided, you know what, I want to walk away from this company. How can we turn down the first company without offending them? How can we leave that relationship open?\nKWAME CHRISTIAN: So the first thing is I want to try and change people\u2019s mindset with regards to this, because our goal is to not offend them, but we need to control that which we can control, and we can control our behavior and treating people with respect. So with this interaction, our goal is to comport ourselves in the best possible manner. That\u2019s it. That is it. And it\u2019s important, because we cannot take responsibility for the response of others, and if we do that, we\u2019re going to put undue pressure on us, because now we\u2019re trying to control things that we can\u2019t control. So that\u2019s the first thing. So if you handle this perfectly, and they freak out, it\u2019s like, \u201cWhoa, that is your problem. I did my part of the deal.\u201d So I want to introduce the audience to a technique that can be utilized in all situations. And quick pause. This is one of the things I really love about negotiation and conflict resolution, because we can essentially use this salary negotiation as a vignette for the application of general negotiation principles, because every technique that I\u2019ve demonstrated in this call is something that could be used in all sorts of negotiations. So that is why this is so cool. Now back to it, the technique that I\u2019m going to share is called the \u201cno sandwich.\u201d So what we do is we have a no sandwiched between two yes\u2019s. And so what we want to do is we want to find the root of our yes. We can only do one thing well at a time in most cases, and so it\u2019s not that we don\u2019t want to do this, or this thing is bad, in particular this offer, it\u2019s that we found something better. That\u2019s what we\u2019re saying yes to. So the strongest no\u2019s are resting on the foundation of the strongest yes\u2019s. So for instance, you would say, \u201cAngela, I really appreciate the opportunity to interview and your offer. It\u2019s very generous, and at this point in my career, I need to do what is best for me and my family to put my career forward. Considering that I have recently received an offer from an organization that is better suited for my needs at this time, and as a result, unfortunately, I\u2019m going to have to walk away from your offer. However, I still want to have an opportunity to maintain a good, positive, amicable relationship with you, because I would love to have at least the opportunity to continue dialogue with you down the road and maybe we have an opportunity to work together later.\u201d So the first yes is to the new opportunities, the thing that is driving your no. And then the second, the no, is very short and succinct. You want to have an unassailable no. If you make it too long, if you open it up to too many vulnerabilities, and now they try to poke holes through your no. So your no needs to be as short as possible. So as you saw in that example, it was, \u201cAnd because of that, unfortunately, I have to say no to your offer.\u201d Boom. That\u2019s it. And so then, you follow it up with another yes, which is a yes to the relationship, because you want to make it clear to the other side that you are saying no to their substantive request, not to them as a person. So you\u2019re saying no to the request, but yes to the relationship.\nANGELA COPELAND: I like it. Well Kwame, this has been excellent. If we\u2019re listening today, where can we go to learn more about you and more about your work.\nKWAME CHRISTIAN: Yeah, so first thing, I have a freebie for the audience. It is a 19-page negotiation guide that will help you be more confident in your most difficult conversations, and it has a salary negotiation guide that you can use to walk through step-by-step what you need to do to prepare for your next salary negotiation, and it also talks about how you can handle conflicts and prepare for general negotiations and everything. So if you want that, you can go to www.americannegotiationinstitute.com/guide. That\u2019s g-u-i-d-e. And I\u2019ll send you the link so you can put it in the show notes. And the other places is, the podcast is called Negotiate Anything. You can find it on any podcast app you have there. And check out the TEDTalk when it comes out. I\u2019m presenting it on October 20, 2017, so it should be out, well, I don\u2019t want to make any predictions. It will be out at some point in the future.\nANGELA COPELAND: It\u2019ll be out soon! We\u2019re so excited to see it. Well Kwame, thank you for joining me. This has been great.\nKWAME CHRISTIAN: Thank you. You know, this was a lot of fun.\nANGELA COPELAND: And thanks everyone for listening. Thanks to those of you who sent me questions. You can send me your questions to angela@copelandcoaching.com. You can also send me questions via Twitter. I\u2019m @CopelandCoach, and on Facebook, I\u2019m \u201cCopeland Coaching.\u201d Don\u2019t forget to help me out.

        "raw_content": "FASB\u2019s New Financial Reporting Rules for Nonprofit Organizations | What You Need to Know\nSeptember 14, 2016 By Ed Mulherin | Posted in: FASB | Accounting\nOn August 18, 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued new rules for nonprofits: \u201cAccounting Standards Update 2016-14 \u201cNot-for-Profit Entities (Topic 958), Presentation of Financial Statements of Not-for-Profit Entities.\u201d This is the first major set of changes to nonprofit financial statement presentation standards since 1993. The new rules take effect for fiscal years starting after December 2017.\nWhat are the goals of the new rules?\nThe FASB\u2019s goals for the new rules are to provide better information to donors, grantmakers, creditors, and others who read nonprofit financial statements. The new rules will improve how a nonprofit organization can tell its story through its financial statements. FASB hopes the changes will improve the usefulness of nonprofit financial statements and/or reduce complexities and costs of financial reporting.\nWhat organizations are affected by the new guidance?\nThe new rules affect substantially all nonprofit organizations, including charities, foundations, private colleges and universities, health care providers, cultural institutions, religious organizations, and trade associations, among others. Chances are, if your nonprofit has audited financial statements, these rules will apply to the presentation of your nonprofit\u2019s financial statements. If your organization doesn\u2019t require an audit, the rules would still apply to a Review engagement and any financial statements that are required to be prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). (If you are not sure whether the law requires your nonprofit to have an independent audit, then visiting the Council of Nonprofits\u2019 free online 50-state map with links to state regulations may be useful.)\nWhat do the new rules do?\nThe new rules address the following issues:\n1. Simplify and clarify\nThe new rules simplify the treatment of net assets in financial statements by focusing on the existence or absence of donor imposed restrictions, as opposed to the types of restrictions (i.e., temporarily restricted vs. permanently restricted). The classification of temporarily restricted versus unrestricted assets has long been an area of confusion. Under the new rules the Statement of Financial Position will only have two classes of \u201cNet Assets\u201d \u2013 net assets with donor restrictions, and net assets without donor restrictions. The footnotes will also be changed to explain these classifications.\nThe new rules also replace the current three required classes of net assets (unrestricted, temporarily restricted, and permanently restricted) with two new classes (those with donor restrictions and those without donor restrictions). The goal of this change is to simplify keeping track of donor imposed restrictions. Other advantages of this change are that the financial statements will now also provide more useful information about the nature, amounts, and types of donor restrictions. Nonprofits will still have to track net assets and follow any restrictions imposed by donors; however, there is no longer a requirement to distinguish between temporarily and permanently restricted net assets. Instead, new disclosure requirements will allow nonprofits to provide more useful information about limits placed on net assets by both boards and donors. Time will tell whether the guidelines actually accomplish the goal of simplification and clarity.\n2. Clarify cash on hand/available assets\nThe new rules require quantitative and qualitative information to explain how an organization manages its liquid resources available to meet cash needs for general expenditures within one year of the balance sheet date. The requirement for qualitative information will be satisfied by \u201cclassified\u201d presentation on the statement of financial position (i.e., a breakdown of current and non-current assets and liabilities). The requirement for quantitative information will be satisfied by disclosure of whether or not a financial asset\u2019s availability is limited by a.) its nature, b.) external limits imposed by donors, grantors, laws or contracts, or c.) internal limits imposed by governing boards. The idea here is to inform the reader of the financial statements about any limitations on the use of liquid assets (typically cash and investments) by the nonprofit. Nonprofit managers should be ready to discuss these restrictions with their CPA performing the audit or review engagement.\n3. Ensure consistency in the reporting of investment expenses and investment returns\nThe new rules require investment income to be reported net of related internal and external investment expenses (this is currently optional), but also eliminate the related requirement to disclose the amount of those netted investment expenses. The result of this change is not only a consistent presentation across nonprofit entities, but also it gets rid of the difficulty and costs associated with identifying embedded investment fees in the investment returns used by some nonprofits, such as mutual funds and hedge funds. Despite this change, nonprofit leaders should continue to make sure they are aware of the amount paid by the nonprofit for investment management fees.\n4. Correct misunderstandings about the statement of cash flows and related presentation options\nThe new rules continue to allow nonprofits the freedom to choose to present operating cash flows using either the direct or indirect method (whichever method best serves the informational needs of those reading the nonprofit\u2019s financial statements). However, the new rules eliminate the requirement to present or disclose the indirect method in the notes if the direct method is presented on the statement of cash flows. The result is anticipated to be a more useful statement of cash flows and a reduction in costs to prepare the financial statements. (Many organizations have avoided the use of the direct method because it essentially increased the cost of preparing and auditing the financial statements.)\nThese changes will not materially affect how nonprofit finance teams handle underlying transactions; but staff will need to be ready to explain the difference in the look of the financial statements they present to the board and grantmakers. Also board members will need some training on the new rules as they pertain to their particular organization\u2019s financial statements. Consider asking your nonprofit\u2019s auditor to explain the impact of the new rules to your board of directors.\nWhen are the new FASB standards effective?\nThere is still plenty of time before the new rules go into effect. Talk to your auditor about the potential impact on audited financial statements. The new standards apply to annual financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. Early application is permitted. Note: There is a \u201cphase two\u201d planned when FASB will address a variety of other issues affecting nonprofits, but new guidance is not expected for quite some time.\nBy Edward Mulherin CPA, Esq. \u2013 Founder and CEO of eCratchit Nonprofit.

        "raw_content": "Back to Practical Machine Learning on H2O\nPractical Machine Learning on H2O, H2O\nIn this course, we will learn all the core techniques needed to make effective use of H2O. Even if you have no prior experience of machine learning, even if your math is weak, by the end of this course you will be able to make machine learning models using a variety of algorithms. We will be using linear models, random forest, GBMs and of course deep learning, as well as some unsupervised learning algorithms. You will also be able to evaluate your models and choose the best model to suit not just your data but the other business restraints you may be under....\nI've taken a lot of Coursera classes and this is one of the better classes. It is a good hands-on course and will help students learn more about not only H2O, but also machine learning.\nGreat content, a lot of hands-on activities and the instructor is quite good too. By the end of the course, I feel that I have the necessary skills to work with h2o.\nBy Robert H. Eubanks\nBy Venkata Turlapati\nH2O platform provides the least friction to get started with Machine Learning and Data Science for large scale data. It is very easy to setup, load and analyze data, helps in moving fast and get insights quickly. This course assumes some background knowledge in Stats, Linear Algebra, Calculus but the course work itself doesn't let you down. I would like to see more deep dive courses on various powerful algos from H2O. Thanks Coursera and H2O for offering this course.\nBy Marcio Gualtieri\nThat's one of those \"one size fits all\" attempts that end up not fitting anyone. If you don't know machine learning, you're not going to learn beyond mimicking examples of H20 code, which you could do for free by the way, using (way better) resources available on the web (H20's GitHub is a good resource). The instructor's attempts to provide intuitions on the machine learning algorithms are lazy at best. If you don't know any machine learning, you will likely get extremely confused. If you know any machine learning, you will cringe: they are just plain awful. The man didn't put much effort into this course. When things get tricky to explain, he simply excuses himself from doing it and provides Wikipedia links... Also in an attempt to reach an audience as large as possible, the instructor didn't even commit to one programming language for the course... The man goes back and forth between R and Python, half-assing both of them. He could have at least had the courtesy of providing this course's code somewhere on the web. I spent the majority of my time in this course pausing videos and typing the code from the screen... On top of everything, there are no instructors nor mentors answering to questions in the discussion forum. I took the first iteration of this course and I have seen maybe ten messages, most of them directed to the instructor and no answers whatsoever. Lastly, take in consideration that the assignments are peer-graded. I think that there is a high probability that you won't be able to get enough reviews to pass this course if you take later iterations. The number of people taking this course seem rather small.",

Stennis (CVN 74) man the rails as the aircraft carrier arrives at Naval Base Kitsap\u2013Bremerton, Aug. 14. (U.S. Navy/MC3 Charles D. Gaddis)\nBREMERTON, Wash. - More than 3,000 Sailors aboard USS John C. Stennis (CVN 74) returned to their homeport of Bremerton, Washington, following a regularly scheduled seven-month deployment to the Indo-Asia-Pacific, Aug 14.\nJohn C. Stennis departed for deployment from Bremerton Jan. 15, and operated in both U.S. 3rd and U.S. 7th Fleet areas of operation, including more than 60 days in the South China Sea.\n\u201cThe crew of John C. Stennis should be proud of what they\u2019ve accomplished this deployment and their families should be proud of them, just as I am,\u201d said Capt. Greg Huffman, John C. Stennis\u2019 commanding officer. \u201cThey carried out difficult and demanding missions far from home, and carried them out with exceptional professionalism in the finest tradition of naval service. They are a magnificent crew.\u201d\nDuring deployment, John C. Stennis worked together with allied nations, participating in multinational exercises including Foal Eagle with the Republic of Korea military, Malabar with the Indian Navy and Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force, and RIMPAC, the world\u2019s largest international maritime exercise, with twenty-six participating nations, 40 ships and submarines, more than 200 aircraft and 25,000 personnel.\nJohn C. Stennis also conducted dual carrier operations with USS Ronald Reagan (CVN 76), during which both aircraft carriers performed coordinated flight operations.\nJohn C. Stennis made port calls to Guam, South Korea, Singapore, Philippines and Hawaii. Sailors had the opportunity to experience local cultures on their own or through Morale, Welfare and Recreation (MWR) tours.\n\u201cI wanted to take a tour and see something I would never have normally seen,\u201d said Aviation Boatswain\u2019s Mate (Equipment) Airman Elisabet Laboymendez, from San Jaun, Puerto Rico. Laboymendez took an MWR sponsored tour of the Taal Volcano in the Philippines.\nSailors also volunteered their time to take part in community service projects, working in schools, serving in soup kitchens and participating in environmental beautification projects.\nOver the course of deployment, John C. Stennis Sailors performed over 8,500 launches and recoveries of aircraft, conducted 30 replenishments at sea and received approximately 13 million gallons of fuel. The crew also hosted 580 distinguished visitors including the Vice President of the United States Joe Biden, U.S. Secretary of Defense Ashton Carter and Chief of Naval Operations Adm. John Richardson.\n\u201cYou have had an incredible cruise,\u201d said Vice Adm. Nora Tyson, commander, 3rd Fleet, speaking over the 1MC as the ship pulled into San Diego. \u201cYou have done an incredible job throughout the deployment and workups and I could not be more proud of you. Your professionalism, your dedication has been evident at every turn.\u201d",

We were subsequently engaged to manage the post-contract phase, including negotiations with sub-contractors and suppliers employed by the previous contractor.\nThe client needed to quickly understand the scope of work required to complete the building and to appoint a reputable contractor that could meet the project deadlines and commitments they had made.\nInitially, Currie & Brown provided advice on capturing the scope of work and documentation required from others to record what had been completed to date. We then provided tender documentation for the remaining work and detailed estimates of the cost to complete so that the client could accurately understand their commercial position. We also assisted in the due diligence process of valuing materials left by the previous contractor and remediation required to correct the previous contractor\u2019s work. Finally, we instigated a detailed change management process to ensure that the client was fully informed of their commercial position at all times.\nDaman Real Estate Capital Partners Limited",

        "title": "Energy Commodities Trading: Awareness, Risk Management and Opportunity | Dataminr",
        "raw_content": "The trading of energy commodities today hinges on three interrelated factors: situational awareness; risk management; and capitalising on opportunity. This is because data has changed the way the game is played. From the speed at which you receive a trading signal to the latest economic news, faster decision making is key to success (even if that decision is to hold).\nThe Need to Respond Faster\nTechnology innovations in the creation and sharing of data have disrupted trading desks over time. The difference in the current data economy is that it\u2019s inextricably linked to the convergence of industry trends, breaking news and public opinion in a way that has never been possible before. A shift in consumer sentiment can destabilise confidence in a brand or a sector, which in turn can move the stock price. Put simply, the places in which data is created and disseminated are more diverse than ever before, and this can have a direct impact on shareholder value.\nThe formal infrastructures of politics and finance no longer control how information is shared in the commodity space. Rumours can move a market, and those rumours can come from anywhere, reaching a global audience in minutes. With so much publicly available data how do you make smart decisions? It\u2019s a problem whether you\u2019re protecting your own capital or a client\u2019s, mitigating risk in a portfolio, or seeking profits in a fund.\nOwning the New Data Landscape\nThe challenge with accessing this public data is that it\u2019s a case of hundreds of needles lost in billions of haystacks. Some organisations have become more savvy in accessing insights from various alternative data sources such as social media, with keyword-driven searches unveiling some of this information. But it\u2019s time-consuming to set these searches up - and they\u2019re typically only partial in their coverage. For example, depending on whether you\u2019re being colloquial or literal, terms such as \u2018on fire\u2019 can have highly positive or highly negative connotations if you don\u2019t provide context.\nIf a leaked insight about OPEC\u2019s boosting oil output breaks from a little-known source, outside of the native language and geographical region, there\u2019s a good chance most organisations will miss this early indication. Instead they\u2019ll be left reliant on a traditional news platform to break the story. That\u2019s probably too late.\nAlternative data can provide a critical head start. A commodities Twitter alert, for example, can allow you to monitor an emerging situation, rather than trying to react after the event. It\u2019s how you stay razor sharp, and turn information chaos into opportunity.\nKnow and Decide First\nThis complex data landscape creates extreme exposure for commodities traders. It\u2019s not a simple problem to solve, as effective data analysis across a myriad of public sources is difficult. But when you get it right it can provide the sort of trading signals that are essential in managing risk and generating profit.",

I have been presented with the claim that god exists, and have yet to accept the claim until I am presented with good evidence/reasoning to justify such a belief.\n---------------------------Rules---------------------------\nPRO must believe/accept the claim that a god exists, and he/she will have the burden of proof to demonstrate that it is rational to hold that such a claim is true.\n--------------------------Format---------------------------\nRound 1: PRO will present 1-2 arguments for the existence of god. Please, NO MORE than 2 arguments will be presented, I would like to keep this argument relatively focused.\nRounds 2-4: Responding back and forth to arguments/rebuttals presented, NO NEW ARGUMENTS can be made.\nHello, Glad to be here -\nWhat I am about to argue may not be what you had in mind, but I hope that it at least might be able to interest you with a new view point. Before I begin, I just want you to know that my ideas about God are something I believe, not anything specifically preached in any religion. This is merely how I feel about religion as far as I'm concerned.\nWhy does anything exist? I believe absolutely in the scientific Ideology. it makes perfect sense that we have evolved from lesser-developed organisms. Some religious people claim that this is not true, citing religious texts which describe God as having created everything in an extremely short time period. This I don't believe. Creation stories are allegorical as far as I'm concerned, and in reality God merely augmented evolution and monitored it's progress over a massive amount of time. In short, Science and Religion corroborate each other. The fact that we even exist as intelligent life-forms on this perfect planet is odds-on impossible. The fact that we are here is proof of divine intervention, in this case of God.\nPeople are constantly developing technology and inventing new things. Understanding and acceptance only increases over time, and people create more and more amazing things. Despite what some religions would say, if you examine the heart of any major religion, they all say to love other people, and accept them regardless of their circumstances. This ideology has been clouded by the actions of many people over hundreds and hundreds of years, but it still stands today. All of these religions agree that there is a God out there that only wants the best for people, and for people to help, love, and accept each other. This highly developed ideology, surprisingly universal, shows that there is indeed someone out there, God, who merely wants the best for all of us and is willing to do just about anything to help us out.\nI am sorry if my \"arguments\" were not focused enough; i tend to find myself better at responding to others rather than divulging long ideological pieces. Looking forward to subsequent discussion rounds, and I hope that I will be able to raise interesting points in response to what you think.\n\"The fact that we even exist as intelligent life-forms on this perfect planet is odds-on impossible. The fact that we are here is proof of divine intervention, in this case of God.\"\nDo you care to expound on these claims? You need to provide evidence for these assertions, because they are basically meaningless without any explanation...\n1) How is this planet \"perfect\"?\n2) How is it \"impossible\" that we exist as intelligent life forms\n3) How is our existence proof of God?\n\"if you examine the heart of any major religion, they all say to love other people, and accept them regardless of their circumstances. This ideology has been clouded by the actions of many people over hundreds and hundreds of years, but it still stands today. All of these religions agree that there is a God out there that only wants the best for people, and for people to help, love, and accept each other.\"\nWhat exactly is the \"heart of any major religion\"? It would seem to me that the only thing one could argue was the heart of the major monotheistic religions are there holy books, which are demonstrably filled with the most horrible and disgusting acts and direct orders. Slavery, rape, torture, human sacrifice, genocide, the list goes on... I normally would provide sources for this, but I'm guessing you already are aware of these things as you appear to be a fairly normal and rational person.\nThe books clearly aren't loving and accepting, they are hateful and divisive more often than not. You admit the people \"cloud\" religion with their terrible actions... So what is this \"heart\" of religion that you talk about that teaches love and acceptance??\n\"I am sorry if my \"arguments\" were not focused enough; i tend to find myself better at responding to others rather than divulging long ideological pieces. Looking forward to subsequent discussion rounds, and I hope that I will be able to raise interesting points in response to what you think.\"\nThanks for your responses. I'm being totally honest here, your arguments don't seem to make any sense to me. The first argument appears to be an argument from ignorance, because you don't understand how humans evolved and are so intelligent, therefore God must have done it. It's a pretty straightforward fallacy. Your second argument was basically that religions are \"highly developed\" ideologies that show universal goodness, but it's so massively clear that from any source, the people, the books, the preachings, they aren't universally anything, let alone universally good. The teachings are mutually exclusive and they even contradict themselves at times.\nI just haven't gotten any good reasons to believe a deity exists.\nGalahad forfeited this round.\nAs my opponent has forfeited that round, I will wait for further arguments.\nI am truly sorry, MikeNH, but time has gotten away from me and I was unable to reply to your post in time; for that I am truly sorry. As it turns out, the last few days have been really crazy for me and I have had very little spare time. The way it seems now, I do not think I will be able to give the proper time and consideration to this debate or any other for the next few weeks. For this reason, I have to say that I am formally forfeiting, as I do not want to insult you with half-developed arguments and responses. My deepest apologies, and I hope that you will soon be able to find someone who can better expound on this topic than my poor opening.\nagain, my Deepest apologies,\nNo apologies necessary, thanks for formally forfeiting. When you get the time again send me a message and we can come back where we left off.\nVote Placed by William.Burnham 5 years ago\nReasons for voting decision: Pro forfeited.

Up the coast, hundreds are injured during the summer in the beach towns. Produced by Megan Raymond\nKids play in the waves in Ocean City, Md., during Memorial Day weekend 2016.(Photo11: Megan Raymond photo)Buy Photo\nOn a recent sunny afternoon, Katie Workman, of Doylestown, Ohio, was watching her son play on the Ocean City sand by the ocean \u2014 a body of water she won't even dip a toe in.\n\"I have never been in it,\" she said. \"I don't want to be swept away by a shark.\"\nBut another danger lurks in the water, and it has nothing to do with fear of jaws: spinal and neck injuries.\nAccidents involving those sent nine people to a hospital near Rehoboth Beach alone last year. Up the coast, hundreds are injured during the summer in the beach towns. And some say the chances for injuries may be worse along the coast's replenished beaches.\nREAD MORE: As Ocean City evolves, it shoots for the sky\nTrips to the emergency room occur in a variety of ways, such as diving into the water where it's too shallow or people landing on their heads after being hit by a wave that swept them off their feet.\nAlong with riptides, these are the types of injuries that lifeguards and emergency officials warn beachgoers about most.\nJosh Basile knows how a good day at the beach can be ruined.\nIn August 2004, Basile's life as an 18-year-old changed forever when he was hit from behind by a wave.\nJosh Basile was injured by a wave in 2004 when he standing in knee-deep water at North Bethany Beach. He is now a practicing attorney. This picture was taken when he was sworn in to the District of Columbia bar earlier this year. (Photo11: Submitted image)\nHe crashed into the surf, and his head hit the sand, which he described as hard as concrete. He couldn't move his arms or his legs as his friends dragged him out of the water.\n\"The second you put your guard down, something bad can happen,\" Basile said.\nThat day, Basile broke his neck and became a quadriplegic. Basile now works to make sure people are aware of the dangers of the ocean.\nExperts warn that, without caution, injuries like Basile's are a a real possibility for beachgoers, but what's causing these punishing waves is questioned.\nBasile urges caution for others now as they visit the beach, as do experts who have studied beach injuries.\n\u201cThe analogy I use is, I ask people if they would close their eyes and run across Route 1,\u201d said Dr. Paul Cowan, chief of the Department of Emergency Medicine at Beebe Healthcare in Lewes. \u201cAnd everyone says of course they wouldn\u2019t do that. Well, they are kind of doing the same thing when they turn their back to the waves.\u201d\nThe unpredictable ocean\nSharon Howse was visiting Ocean City from Canada as she looked over the water on a recent afternoon.\nShe said she hasn't been swimming yet, but her family has. Howse has, however, frequented the ocean in many other places, and she treats it with respect when she does go in.\n\"I don't always feel safe,\" she said. \"I nearly drowned when I was a kid, so that kind of scared me.\"\nThe ocean can be unpredictable, and the same is true for beach injures and environmental factors.\nIn this file photos, beachgoers body surf the waves near 28th Street in Ocean City. (Photo11: Daily Times file photo)\nWhether or not the waves on beaches like Ocean City, Maryland, and Rehoboth, Delaware, cause worse waves and therefore more injuries is hotly debated.\nSome say rough surf is caused by beach nourishment, which changes the topography of the shoreline. Others argue it's the natural motion of the ocean.\nKent Buckson, the Rehoboth Beach Patrol captain, sees both sides of the beach nourishment discussion.\nHe has been involved with many beach nourishment projects, and he realizes the process is vital to supporting the town. He believes the process does change the way the waves break onto the beach.\nREAD MORE: Proposed tax hike on Del. beach rentals causes concern\nWaves tend to break quickly and heavily onto the beach when nourishment is involved, he said, instead of rolling in like on a beach that does not use nourishment.\n\"There is something to be said about it,\" he said. \"It changes the shoreline and how the waves break, and that causes injuries.\"\nBeach nourishment pumps coarse sand up the shore, meaning the beach is going to be steeper, said Stephen Leatherman, a professor and director of the Laboratory for Coastal Research at Florida International University. Leatherman is known as \"Dr. Beach\" for his annual best beaches rankings.\nWaves that catch air in the tube and crash in an exploding manner are known as plunging waves, he said. These waves are present when there is a shore break, which is when the waves are breaking directly onto the beach \u2014 something that lifeguards are often warning about along the coast.\n\"As the wave breaks, it pulls the water into it, and that can pull people into it and make them hit their head on the sand because it's so shallow,\" he said. \"It is a very bad situation. ... It is like jumping into a pool head first, but there is less there. Sometimes there's less than a foot.\"\nThis is the type of wave that caused Basile's life-changing injury.\nCertain aspects of the water, such as weather and how it will affect the surf, do cause more water rescues, said Joe Donnelly, captain of the Bethany Beach Patrol, but he doesn't believe beach replenishment does.\nIn this file photo, the Ocean City Beach Patrol and the Ocean City Fire Department assist two swimmers at 71st Street. (Photo11: Daily Times file photo)\n\u201cThere is no rhyme or reason to predicting surf injuries,\u201d he said. \u201cThere are those who suggest certain beach topography will lead to more beach injuries, but our statistics would not suggest that. We have the same beach topography here in Bethany every summer.\u201d\nREAD MORE: OC council unmoved by Deepwater wind farm proposal\nThe beach is dynamic, said Chris Gardner, a public information officer for the Army Corps of Engineers.\nWhen a beach is widened, in between three to six months the slope will start to match the natural slope of the beach, he added. As time passes, beach nourishment is done to keep up with this process.\nThat process, Gardner said, plays no role in creating neck injuries.\n\u201cWe have no data to suggest there is a correlation between recreational injuries and coastal management,\u201d he said.\nButch Arbin, captain of the Ocean City Beach Patrol, said in his 45 years with the patrol, he has not seen anything to indicate beach nourishment is leading to more injuries.\nBeach patrol members are very proactive when it comes to reporting neck injuries, so while it looks like there has been an increase of neck injuries since beach nourishment started, in reality more injuries are being treated as neck and head injuries as a precaution, he said.\n\"If you walked up to me on the beach with a bloody nose in 1975, I would have handed you gauze,\" he said. \"If you were to do that now, it would be different. The mechanics of the injury that caused the bloody nose could have caused a spine injury, so we treat it like a spine injury.\"\nA variety of injuries\nMembers of the Ocean City Beach Patrol practice a life-saving procedure on a fellow lifeguard during a re-certification session. The procedure, called the Hawaiian Sling, is a rescue technique in which lifeguards operate as a human backboard. (Photo11: Staff photo by Ralph Musthaler)\nNot every injury on the beach is as traumatic as Basile's life-changing injury in 2004.\nThere are three categories of beach injuries, Donnelly, the Bethany Beach lifeguard captain said: general aid, lieutenant injury and ambulance injury.\nThere can be between two and 10 cases each day for a general aid injury, he said, which can be treated with a first aid kit.\nThe other two injuries, though, require more attention.\nA lieutenant injury is an injury that requires assistance from a beach patrol lieutenant to administer aid, and an ambulance injury is an injury that requires assistance from an ambulance.\nBethany Beach Patrol saw 60 lieutenant and ambulance injuries during the summer of 2016, Donnelly said.\nIn Rehoboth, there were 319 injuries that required medical attention during 2016, ranging in severity from a splinter to broken arms, Buckson said.\nThere were nine injuries to the spine which required people to be taken off the beach.\nBut even with these injuries, there are some still who say they feel safe while swimming in the ocean.\nREAD MORE: Delaware beaches transform into year-round destination\nPhil Poorman and Isabelle Purnel, both of Wilmington, were looking at the ocean on a day when the water was as aggressive as a swarm of bees that recently had its hive run over by a lawnmower.\nPoorman said he would feel comfortable swimming in the ocean on a day like that but only if a lifeguard is around.\n\"If you are not an experienced swimmer, and if you don't know how to do any riptide stuff, I can understand why people would be worried,\" he said. \"But, personally, I know how to. But I'd still stay away from the buffer zone when the ocean is looking like this.\"\nPurnel, on the other hand, is more cautious.\nIn this file photo, Dewey Beach Patrol held their Annual Rookie Test on the beach at Dagsworthy Street in Dewey Beach on July 15 with 18 new candidates completing a series of endurance running, open water rescue, and swim drills to earn a place on the Beach Patrol. (Photo11: Chuck Snyder photo)\nShe said she doesn't how to swim well, so she wouldn't go in the ocean when the waves are breaking as heavily as they were that day.\n\"If you don't know how to swim well, you should stay away,\" she said.\nHowever, beach experts say the ocean does not discriminate against swimmers.\nDonnelly said he has observed no connection between days where the surf is rough and an increase of injures, and there can be just as many injuries on a calm day as on a rough day.\nBeach injuries range from sprained ankles and broken wrists to broken necks, said Dr. Cowan, Beebe's chief of the Department of Emergency Medicine.\n\u201cWe see these neck, back and head injuries,\u201d he said. \u201cBut we don\u2019t see a ton of them.\u201d\nThe most common injuries he sees are injuries to the upper extremities, lower extremities, torso, and then head, neck and spine, he said. The most common manner that people injure themselves at the beach comes from when people are trying to exit the surf.\nAnother way by which people injure their head, neck and back comes from diving into the water in areas where it\u2019s too shallow, said Dr. Herndon Murray, an orthopedic surgeon at the Shepherd Center, a hospital in Atlanta specializing in spinal cord injuries.\nREAD MORE: Is the cost of OC and Delaware beach replenishment worth it?\n\u201cDiving is a completely voluntary action, and it can ruin someone\u2019s life,\u201d he said. \u201cWe look back at 10 consecutive years of diving injuries, and a third of the injuries do occur at the beach. That surprised even us.\u201d\nOver a 10-year period between 2003 and 2013, diving was the fourth leading cause of spinal cord injury observed by the Shepherd Center, and oceans were the second leading area of these injuries in that time period, with 34 percent of spinal cord injuries treated by the Shepherd Center caused by diving coming at the beach.\nAlso, during the time period in which the Shepherd Center conducted its study, males were injured in beach accidents far more often than women \u2014 89 percent to 11 percent \u2014 and people between the ages of 20 and 29, too, account for the most injuries, with 45 percent of injuries coming from this age range.\nHowever, Cowan said they observe a bimodal trend, with people between the ages of 20-29 and those closer to Medicare age representing the two largest groups, and he is unsure why this trend is.\n\"What we don\u2019t know entirely is who is sitting on the beach, so we don\u2019t know if there are more older people sitting on the beach leading to those injuries,\" he said. \"We are working on those types of questions this summer.\"\nIn this file photo, members of the Ocean City Beach Patrol stand guard at 82nd Street where they rescued a male subject from the Atlantic Ocean. (Photo11: Daily Times file photo)\nDuring the summer, the Shepherd Center observes more people becoming quadriplegics from diving injuries than driving injuries, which is one of the leading causes of injuries in young people, Murray said.\nDespite his injury, Basile, now 31 and living in Bethesda, Maryland, has not let his injury slow down his life. He graduated from the University of Maryland, went to law school and passed the bar exam, and is now an attorney in the Washington, D.C. area.\nAnd he still loves the beach.\n\u201cI have a thousand happy memories of the beach, and one tragic one,\u201d he said. \u201cI wish I could have that day back, but the beach is still full of smiles and fun times.\u201d\nBeach injuries, such as the severe injuries to the neck, can be prevented, said orthopedic surgeon Dr. Herndon Murray. To prevent neck injuries, he recommends people don\u2019t dive at all. \u201cFeet first every time,\u201d he said. \u201cBetter to break your leg than your neck. Any dive can result in a lifetime of paralysis. People are just not aware of what can happen. It doesn\u2019t happen that often, but if it happens to you it\u2019s permanent.\u201d\nBethany Beach Patrol Capt. Joe Donnelly recommends people take it easy, both getting in and out of the water. Communicating with lifeguards throughout the day is another way to stay safe at the beach, he added. \u201cChecking with lifeguards on day-to-day conditions is probably the smartest thing to do,\u201d he said.\nEntering and exiting the water sideways is another way people can avoid injury, said Dr. Paul Cowan, chief of the Department of Emergency Medicine at Beebe Healthcare in Lewes. Waves have tons of energy, he said, and a 3-4 foot wave can have the same energy of a small car. \u201cThe analogy I use is I ask people if they would close their eyes and run across Route 1,\u201d he said. \u201cAnd everyone says of course they wouldn\u2019t do that. Well, they are kind of doing the same thing when they turn their back to the waves.\u201d\nIf a wave is approaching and exit is impossible, Rehoboth Beach Patrol Capt. Kent Buckson recommends going under the wave. He said swimmers need to pay attention to the wave break. \u201cYou are better off turning into the wave and going under rather than trying to exit quickly,\u201d he said.\nRead or Share this story: http://www.delmarvanow.com/story/news/local/2017/04/28/good-day-ruined-beach-injuries/100662530/",

        "raw_content": "As the northeasternmost state in the US, Maine is known for its delicious seafood, rocky promontories, historic lighthouses, and charming small and mid-sized towns. Its most populous city, Portland, is home to only around 66,666 people. Its capital Augusta, is the ninth most populous city in the state, with a mere 18,705 residents. So if you enjoy quiet and solitude, Maine is an excellent place to call home.\nWhat are some of the most famous scenic destinations in Maine? A couple well-known coastal highlights include Casco Bay and Portland Head Light. Other popular parks include Jordan Pond, Mount Katahdin, Cadillac Mountain and Acadia National Park. You will also want to check out some urban destinations such as the Old Port District in Portland.\nWhile Maine is a lovely state, you may be wondering what kind of money you can expect to make there if you become a dental hygienist. Let\u2019s find out!\nNationwide, the mean yearly salary earned by dental hygienists is roughly $73,440. With the field growing rapidly at a rate of 19%, this is an excellent time to become a dental hygienist, because new jobs are opening up all over the country, including in the state of Maine.\nWhat will you earn if you are working in Maine in this field? In May 2016, the US Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) gathered data on dental hygienists in all the states. According to that data, the approximately 1,230 dental hygienists in the state are making on average $62,040. That is the mean, so it can be compared against the nationwide $73,440.\nYou might be concerned by that, especially when you also look at what dental hygienists in the surrounding states are making. In New Hampshire, you could make $76,860, and in Vermont, $65,160. In Massachusetts, you could make as much as $81,050.\nBut these salary variations mirror variations in the state economies, namely the cost of living as expressed in the price of goods, sales tax, property tax, and so on. Maine is on the whole significantly cheaper to live in than the states around it. As a result, the salary you earn here is lower.\nWhile you might make more working in New Hampshire, you would also lose a lot of that overage through higher taxes, grocery bills and so on. So all things taken into account, Maine dental hygienists are earning a competitive salary.\nExcited to join the ranks of Maine dental hygienists? Here are the licensing requirements to get started:\nSubmit a self-query to the National Practitioner Data Bank and attach the results to your application.\nSubmit criminal background checks for all states you have lived in over the past decade.\nGet verification for any licenses you have held in other states and provide it to the Board.\nComplete an accredited dental hygiene degree program and have your school submit verification.\nFulfil the requirements for Mandated Reporter Training (this is specific to Maine law).\nIf you have a change of address or name, you must report it within 10 days. The same goes for criminal convictions, suspensions and so on.\nComplete and submit your application. Do not use fax.\nPay the $80 application fee as well as the licensing fee. The licensing fee is $140 for years ending in odd-numbers, and $70 for years ending in even numbers. You also may need to pay a $21 fee for a Criminal History Records Check.\nSuccessfully pass the National Dental Hygiene Examination and provide your scores.\nSuccessfully pass the Northeast Regional Board Examination and provide your scores.\nProvide proof of an up-to-date CPR certification.\nIf you took the regional exam more than a year before the date on your application, you may need to submit to an interview by the subcommittee.\nCan\u2019t wait to get started as a dental hygienist in Maine? Your first step is to select a school. Check below to discover accredited dental hygiene programs in Maine.\nUniversity of Maine at Augusta-Bangor Campus\nwww.uma.maine.edu\nwww.une.edu",

        "raw_content": "Visit our Turntable Review page to find our record player reviews.\nVisit our Getting Started page for guidance on where to begin on our website.\nVisit our Vinyl Records page to find the records all collectors must own.\nVinyl records are back big time.\nAnd what an encore it is, considering how the popularity of vinyl cratered with the advent of new and handier ways to reproduce music. Each advance, from cassettes to compact discs, seemingly put another nail in vinyl\u2019s coffin.\nBut, even as digital downloads began to become all the rage, there was steady and new interest in this very old technology. The reasons are myriad. Records are fun to buy and collect. They require more user involvement. And, yes indeed, they\u2019re cool.\nBut above and beyond all that, because of compression and other digital recording and mastering techniques, music just sounds better on good ol\u2019 analog records than in other formats.\nNow don\u2019t get us wrong\u2014there are many splendid-sounding CDs and high-resolution digital files. I, for example, am a big believer in ripping my music collection into AAIF and FLAC formats to my computer to get the best sound quality possible.\nBut our love of music, and specifically our tangible relationship to music, is what\u2019s truly at the core of the vinyl resurgence.\nSo, consider this a hearty welcome (or for the old school music vets, a happy welcome back) to the wonderful world of vinyl! Even if you don\u2019t know turntables from tortellini or vinyl from venison, stick around. We\u2019ll give you a crash course into how to join the hordes of music fans who are discovering (or rediscovering) the unbridled joy of listening to music on phonograph records.\nBelow, take a brief moment to view our interactive table. Within the table, you can find our record player reviews of popular turntables, record cleaners, and even in-depth articles pertaining to discovering excellent records and record players that fit your lifestyle, interest, and budget:\nRecord Player Reviews & More\nTurntables are extremely simple machines. They spin a record at a uniform speed. A needle (stylus) picks up embedded vibrations from the record grooves, which are fed to an electromagnetic cartridge that transforms them into electrical signals. Those signals go to an amplifier that powers loudspeakers or headphones.\nCheap turntables will indeed play a record, but the sound quality won\u2019t begin to do justice to the glories of vinyl. Spend just a bit more, and the reproduction can improve dramatically.\nKeep on going, and sonically, the Heavens can seem to open up.\nYou might run into some unfamiliar terms and techniques if you\u2019re shopping for your first turntable. Here are a few basics you should become familiar with if you\u2019re a vinyl newbie:\nPlinth: A plinth is the base and supports everything else. The heftier it is, the better. A turntable design should minimize vibrations that can interfere with the music. Plinths made of MDF (medium-density fiberboard) are quite common, although other materials can come into play.\nPlatter: This is what the record actually sits on. The heavier the better, although some people (including myself) like acrylic platters which can be somewhat light. The benefit of an acrylic platter is that it\u2019s supposed to keep static to a minimum, as you don\u2019t need a felt mat to sit in between the platter and the record itself. Just go ahead and place that wax directly onto the acrylic platter, cue up that tonearm, and begin listening to your favorite LP or 7\u201d record.\nThe drive: Turntables can be belt-driven or \u201cdirect drive.\u201d Both methods have their strong points. Most audiophile-caliber tables in the low-to-medium price range are belt driven.\nHands-on or off?: Turntables can be automatic or manual. With the former, the machine does most of the work, raising the tonearm and lowering it onto the record, then reversing the process and turning the mechanism off. Manual means just that \u2013 these tasks are accomplished by hand. Again, most mid and upper-quality tables these days are manual, although worthy automatic units are available.\nUSB and preamp: Don\u2019t have a receiver with a \u201cphono\u201d jack? That means it doesn\u2019t have its own preamplifier, and the output from a magnetic cartridge is quite a bit lower than that provided by sound sources like CD or tape. It requires a separate stage of amplification. But not to worry\u2014just look for a turntable that has its own built-in preamp, and they\u2019re plentiful. If you think you\u2019ll want to convert your LP tracks to digital files for burning to CDs or playing on an iPod or similar device, look for a table with a \u201cUSB\u201d designation.\nCartridge: Turntables generally come with a cartridge pre-installed. Some makers keep prices down by including an inexpensive cartridge, but they are usually of acceptable or better quality and can always be replaced later.\nWhat Turntables Are Worth My Money?\nMarket forces being what they are, the vinyl renaissance has spurred turntable makers to not only up their production, but to become more competitive than they have ever been before. This, of course, is nirvana for consumers because their dollar can buy more machine than at any time in history. Not only that, there is a wealth of places to buy, both online and (to a lesser degree) at brick and mortar stores around the country and world.\nEven below the rock-bottom starting point of $100, there is a wonderful entry table. Fully-automatic and belt-driven, the Audio-Technica AT-LP60 is a unit with a sleek, industrial-style look that plays vinyl LP records far better than its paltry price might lead you to believe. This is actually the turntable I started out with a few years ago before I eventually upgraded.\nMoving to the next rung, the under-$300 category also has its share of worthy, five-star products. We\u2019d argue that the Pro-ject Debut III, among several others, offers (at $299) an impressive level of design, construction, and playback quality. It\u2019s a true audiophile vinyl record player for the money.\nIf you can spare a bit more, however, the Pro-Ject Debut Carbon DC at $399 is an excellent choice in the under $500 range\u2014gold stars for build, speed stability and quality of cartridge.\nIn the sub-$2,000 category, music lovers will find many fine choices and enjoy a more sophisticated level of reproduction\u2014punchier bass, more detailed highs, and an overall more impressive \u201cpresence\u201d in the sound. Their speed will be more consistent, they\u2019ll be more noise and vibration-free, and they\u2019ll come with topflight cartridges.\nIn short, more of what records have to offer will be \u201cbrought out\u201d\u2014you\u2019ll find that music can sound astoundingly lifelike. In this price range (under $2,000), you\u2019ll find the likes of the superb Rega RP6 ($1,500 to $2,000, depending on cartridge). Modest and unassuming in appearance, it is an exquisitely precise instrument and one of the finest LP record players at any price.\nKeep in mind, though, that a big expenditure on a turntable won\u2019t necessarily be completely worthwhile and truly satisfying without investing comparably in your other components. Your table is part of a system, and your amp and speakers figure heavily in how good things will ultimately sound. That being said, you needn\u2019t spend an arm and a leg on a turntable-based system that will produce ear-opening sound.\nWhen it comes to buying records themselves, the resurgence has opened up a whole host of new outlets. Popular bands and individual artists are actually releasing new music on vinyl, and record stores (both new and used) are popping up everywhere\u2014places where you can actually go and browse.\nThe market for used records has never been busier, and estate sales, yard sales, and thrift stores are still great places to look for bargains. Online, buyers of used vinyl should become familiar with the Goldmine standard, the most common way to evaluate condition and playability.\nMany vinyl neophytes will be attracted to turntables that basically come out of the box \u201cplug and play.\u201d The cartridge is installed, stylus pressure is set, the arm is balanced, and so forth. But not all are so easy; more expensive and sophisticated models require additional setup and adjustment.\nDon\u2019t be daunted. It isn\u2019t that hard, and most tables come with truly intelligible directions. The good news is that you can\u2019t mess up too much; any mistakes will be readily apparent when you play your first record. But, if you\u2019re concerned, find the most ready-to-play model within your price range.\nVinyl fans have naturally become accustomed to a few ticks and pops on playback, even on brand-new records. But the noise doesn\u2019t have to be excessive. Simple, routine care usually does the trick, but for truly dirty records, there are many great cleaning solutions.\nWe recommend the Spin-Clean Record Washer ($75), an all-manual, fluid-and-brush cleaning system. If you feel the need for a unit that turns the record during cleaning and vacuums up used fluid, then go for The Okki Nokki RCM Record Cleaning Machine ($499).\nIf you already have an LP collection or plan on starting one (they mount up fast!), you\u2019ll need a place to store them. Regardless of where the albums lie, remember that they should be stored vertically (ideal). In fact, storing your records flat with one record stacked on top of the next is a big, big \u201cno-no.\u201d Stacked vinyl gets very heavy, and that can cause not only wear and tear on your album cover, but can eventually force your vinyl records to warp or crack and become unplayable.\nFrankly, we have most of our LP\u2019s in plain wooden boxes. Apple crates, for instance, are very old-school and quite inexpensive, and can be painted or lacquered to taste, adding an interesting flair to a lot of decors. We also like the natural-wood look of the Atlantic Record Crate Shelf ($22), which stores up to 50 platters.\nPersonally, I like to store my vinyl records in 13-15\u201d wide ottomans. That way, they fit snugly into a protective piece of furniture that can sit in the middle of the room and fit in perfectly with the home\u2019s decor.\nThere are also plenty of suitcase-style portable solutions, like the Crosley Record Carrier Case ($58) or the GPO Portable Carry Case (which is sized for 12\u201d LP\u2019s or 7\u201d 45 records and also comes in a variety of colors from baby blue to black).\nWhen it comes to actual furniture, the sky\u2019s the limit, but one very attractive item is the Crosley Bardstown Entertainment Cabinet (just under $100), finished in gorgeous paprika.\nAlso, feel free to be creative. Head over to IKEA and see what they have when it comes to LP storage options (or unique furniture that could store your LP\u2019s). Consider making a purchase on Etsy (which can often require the seller to build you a custom holder per your specifications). You could even think about buying a vintage record holder from the 50s, 60s or 70s for a bargain on eBay.\nWhile we\u2019re undoubtedly in an era of \u201cmusic on the go,\u201d there\u2019s a certain (and quite ritualistic) s-lo-w-n-e-s-s when it comes to the actual process of playing a record. No simple button pressing here. This is a deliberate, calculated act that requires certain essential steps.\nFirst, let\u2019s talk about the records themselves. Watch out for different sizes and speeds. \u201cLong playing records\u201d usually (not always) rotate at a speed of 33 1/3 revolutions per minute (RPM). Most are 12 inches in diameter, but some are 10 inches. What used to be called \u201csingles\u201d play at 45 RPM and have a larger hole in the middle and require an adaptor. (There are also 12-inch \u201csingles.\u201d) Older, shellac records play at 78 RPM (few turntables offer this speed).\nIf that sounds too complicated, remember that the vast majority of today\u2019s records are 12-inch LPs spinning at 33 1/3. Some, however, are thicker than others. Many new, premium pressings weigh 180 or even 200 grams, considerably thicker than the standard 120 to 150 grams.\nThicker vinyl is less prone to warping, and some also claim sonic improvements. Most records are black, but some are red, white, blue, green, or clear, and yet others even have pictures on the playing surface (these are referred to as \u201cpicture discs\u201d and are sought after by those that are interested in their vinyl doubling as a piece of art\u2014although the audio quality can sometimes be inferior).\nRegardless of type, gently remove the record from its jacket and inner sleeve, using your palm to make sure those greasy fingertips are not contacting the playing surface. You might choose to clean the record at this point; in most cases, use of a carbon-fiber brush or microfiber cloth should do the trick. Also make sure that the stylus is clean; a soft paintbrush is perfect for this.\nSelect the proper speed. This is usually done with a button or switch, but many belt-drive tables require moving the belt to a different notch. Place the record on the turntable platter so that the spindle fits through the hole in the middle of the record. If it\u2019s a fully automatic turntable, what comes next is easy\u2014with a button or switch, turn the machine on.\nThe platter will automatically start turning, and the tonearm will be lifted and the stylus set down just before the first groove. At the end of the side, the process will be reversed.\nWith a manual table, you must start the motor and use a cueing lever to raise the arm. Your hand then guides the arm to the correct location, and the lever is used to lower it. At the end of the side, you must raise the arm, return it to its rest, and shut off the machine.\nBackground music is fine as far as it goes, but many \u201cvinylphiles\u201d say that listening to records often demands rapt attention. They tend to sit and really listen because they\u2019re often taken aback by how much better their favorite music sounds in analog form\u2014even tunes and pieces that they\u2019ve heard hundreds of times.\nThey say that music on MP3 or CD often sounds somehow less \u201chuman\u201d than on vinyl, pesky pops and all. Adjectives like \u201cwarm\u201d and \u201creal\u201d are frequently used when describing vinyl sound. Digital music can sound cold, clinical, and even harsh\u2014more like it\u2019s being made by a computer than by instruments and voices.\nThis certainly isn\u2019t true of all digital reproduction, and there\u2019s surely a place for all formats. You won\u2019t be taking your new turntable to the gym or on that brisk bike ride. But sitting back and hearing familiar music on records can be like experiencing it on a whole new level\u2014and for the very first time.\nWe hope that you enjoyed reading this, but don\u2019t go yet\u2014we\u2019re just getting started!

Rather, it shapes the nature of the stuttering community as we resist normalization.\nIn the most obvious sense, stuttering is undeniably a form of disability. Stuttering is a \u201cspeech-language pathology\u201d studied by scientific and medical experts. It is even listed in the DSM-5 (the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders) for goodness sake. Our bodies are medicalized and treated as disabled.\nMore importantly, though, stuttering is an obvious disability candidate from the perspective of critical disability studies. In critical disability studies, what makes something a disability is the challenges faced when moving through an ableist world, and it is clear that stutterers are regularly discriminated against because of how we process spoken language.\nYet stuttering is nevertheless positioned in a curious gap between disability and abled-bodiedness. The stutterer is often understood as not quite fully abled or disabled. As I have argued elsewhere:\nUnlike the experience of being blind or deaf, stutterers are clearly expected to perform on the same terms as the able-bodied. No one would likely tell a quadriplegic to \u201cwalk already\u201d or a deaf person to \u201clisten up,\u201d since it is understood that these actions are beyond their control. However, since a stutterer\u2019s disability is not understood as absolute, since the stutterer is [seemingly] not really disabled, stuttering can evoke irritation out of listeners who wish that she could just \u201cspit it out!\u201d\nStuttering is seen as something that is ultimately under our control, something that we could \u201cfix\u201d if we just worked hard enough. Put simply, stuttering blurs the line between disabled and able-bodied.\nI think there are a few reasons stutterers often avoid identifying as disabled. The first is out of respect for people with \u201creal\u201d disabilities. Because stuttering is sometimes on the limit of what qualifies as disabled, and because we think of disability as a very bad thing, stutterers may not want to compare themselves to those who \u201chave it worse.\u201d Another reason is to avoid the stigma associated with disability. Disabled people are routinely cast as objects of pity and charity, and many stutterers do not want in on that party. And finally, unlike many other forms of disability, stutterers are able to \u201cpass,\u201d or hide their disability. When stutterers successfully pass, they dodge much of the ableism leveled at stuttering, making whether they are disabled a complex question.\nI\u2019d like to suggest, though, that distancing ourselves from disability and disabled people has two significant and dangerous effects:\n1) First, as the above quote indicates, no matter how proficient one gets at passing and/or using fluency techniques, playing on the terms of the able-bodied is a treacherous game. We will always be expected to speak by the rules of \u201cnormalcy\u201d until normalcy is dismantled. No stutterer can be fluent all the time, and when one fails while passing-as-normal they fail hard. Claiming a disabled identity frees us up to speak on our own terms and by our own rules. I believe this is a far healthier way to live.\n2) Second, and related, distancing ourselves from disability\u2014saying \u201cI am not like them\u201d\u2014reinforces the ideal of normalcy that affects us all. Put in different terms, all of us\u2014blind, deaf, quadriplegic, epileptic, stuttering, bipolar, intellectually disabled\u2014are oppressed by a shared logic of ableism. We are in this boat together and it is a hazardous mistake to think the oppression of those who are \u201creally disabled\u201d is not related to our own. The flip side to this point is that we need each other. Claiming a disabled identity and joining in solidarity with a larger disability community means that we can draw upon the resources of those who have been fighting discrimination for a very long time. Claiming a disabled identity means we can be part of a resistance against normalcy that is far bigger than stuttering.\nLet me end with a story. Last year I was sitting on the bus when a person who was intellectually disabled (ID) mistook my stutter for me being ID. In the past\u2014in fact, for much of my life\u2014I would have been horrified that others around me would think I was ID and would have quickly distanced myself from being like her. But it is the same ableist attitude that says it\u2019s shameful to be ID that says it is shameful to stutter. So this time, instead of distancing myself, I happily took the ensuing conversation as a moment of kinship and as an opportunity to disrupt the ableism that structures both of our experiences.",

        "raw_content": "Cuenca Ecuador Winter Weather\nFor those of you who care about Cuenca weather, you might care about this. Cuenca\u2019s weather, oddly enough is nicer and sunnier in the wintertime. The only difference is, it is about 5 to 10 degrees cooler at night but come eleven o-clock in the morning most of the days are warm and absolutely beautiful.\nUPDATE: (Winter - August 2014) The first statement above is not true anymore. LOL. We've experienced a lot of rain and chilly, windy weather this July and August of 2014. I'm using all of our heaters in the house and it is still cold! This has been an unusually cold winter this year. I think the best way to tell people about the weather in Cuenca is to say, IT IS UNPREDICTABLE!\nWe\u2019ve commented before about how there are more cloudy days in Cuenca than sunny, but in the winter, we feel it is a toss-up. It seems we\u2019ve had just as many sunny days as cloudy days this winter. Winter in Ecuador begins in June and ends in October or November. Summer begins Nov/Dec and ends in April/May, or there a-bouts.\nIt takes some getting used to because it is so much nicer here in the winter compared to summer that you think it is summer, but it is actually winter. Did you get that? LOL ...PLEASE READ the update above.\nSummer in Ecuador is rainy season, and boy does it rain! It rains and it rains and then it pours. This is great for gardening and having lush green grass and flora in your yard, but you most likely will get caught up in a rain storm if you walk around a lot like we do. Take an umbrella with you.\nWinter in Cuenca coincides with the dry season\u2014we haven\u2019t had much rain lately (2012 and 2013). If you are a gardener you may have to water your plants the old fashioned way, otherwise your garden may dry out. It rained today, the first time in a couple of weeks. This winter seems to be much dryer than last year in Cuenca. Of course, when there are no clouds, you get\u2026sunshine\u2026so dry season = many sunny days in Cuenca.\nIn the summer it rains almost every day and it is cloudy on most days. We\u2019ve enjoyed the sunny days this winter, but the gardener in the house is ready for some rain. Just thought you might want to know this bit of information about the weather patterns in Cuenca Ecuador.\nJim Sanders September 3, 2012 at 12:34 AM\nThank you for this information. Weather is very important for me when I make my decision where to live. I'm tired of the heat of Northern California. If I never see a day over 80 degrees it is okay with me. It usually runs above 100 during the summer here and I hate it.\nI always get so much from your blog.\nIs it windy there. I love the wind. It could be windy every day and I'd love it.\nDiscover Cuenca Ecuador September 3, 2012 at 10:49 AM\nIt is windy in spurts. It is not windy every day. I like wind too. It's not a windy city like Corpus Christy. But then again, it's not as hot either. If it was windy all the time, if would feel a lot colder.",

Now the two will be connected for the future of the Blue Raiders.\nGreen, a 6-foot-2 transfer guard, signed with MTSU on Thursday, filling the final scholarship opening on the Davis' roster.\nGreen played the past two seasons at Texas Rio Grande Valley. Last season he averaged 16.7 and 3.3 rebounds, converting 40 percent of his field goals. He shot 37 percent from 3-point range and his 111 3-pointers led the Western Athletic Conference and ranked 12th nationally. The sophomore was named second-team All-WAC.\nBecause Green is a transfer, he will sit out the 2017-18 season and will have two years of eligibility remaining.\nTexas A&M-Corpus Christi's Jake Kocher (12) shoots over UTRGV's Antonio Green (55) during a non-conference men's basketball game at the American Bank Center on Tuesday, Nov. 29, 2016.

He\u2019s an excellent shooter that I think will benefit greatly from his redshirt year.\u201d\nHe made an immediate impact at Texas Rio Grand Valley and was named WAC Freshman of the Year, averaging 11.6 points, 4.2 rebounds and 3.0 assists.\n\u201cI feel like this is a really good opportunity for me to continue my career as a Blue Raider,\u201d Green said. \u201cThey have built some really good tradition there recently and I think it\u2019ll be a good fit for me to come in and help continue that tradition.\u201d\nGreen attended Tupelo High School, the same school where Davis' father, Kermit Davis Sr., was the basketball coach in the 1960s and guided the Golden Wave to two state titles.\n\u201cAntonio played for an outstanding high school coach in Jeff Norwood, and what a small world as my dad won two state championships at Tupelo in the mid-1960s,\u201d Davis said. \u201cThe Tupelo Golden Wave has a special place with the Davis family.\u201d\nGreen averaged 17.5 points and made more than 50 percent from 3-point range as a senior at Tupelo to earn a spot in the Mississippi-Alabama All-Star Game.\nMississippi all-star Antonio Green shoots against Alabama during the Alabama-Mississippi Basketball All-Star Game at the Alabama State University Acadome in Montgomery, Ala., on Friday March 20, 2015.

Anyone reading this does.Cell phones, laptops, cars, televisions, clothes, video game consoles, tablets- you name it. These conveniences have become a large and important part of everyday life.\nConsumers know that they like their Samsung Galaxy, Apple IPad, or Microsoft Xbox, but most are oblivious to all of the complex workings that go into the creation of such things. Even commodities like pens and pencils have a methodical and systematic \u201cbehind the scenes\u201d way they are designed, assembled, and marketed by manufacturers. It is in the best interest of manufacturers to come up with a superior product, build it quickly (with as little waste as possible), and put it on the shelves before its competition does.\nProduct Lifecycle Management, or PLM, is a system that is used today to enhance a manufacturer\u2019s ability to accomplish this goal, and in the process, become a highly competitive force in today\u2019s market. PLM systems help organizations in coping with the increasing complexity and engineering challenges of developing new products for the global competitive markets.\nFar from a \u201cnice to have\u201d, PLM is now used by most discrete manufacturers today. It streamlines production and makes for faster product to market. Manufacturers considering adopting a fully integrated PLM system from an established maker, stand to benefit in so many ways. Documentation exists which confirms each of the following benefits that result from a competent PLM implementation:\nMaximize supply chain collaboration\nBetter quality of product, reliability improvements\nPrototype expenses are reduced\nContract Manufacturers are able to give more timely & accurate quotes\nUsing a single source of data provides opportunity for savings\nEnables the fine-tuning of successful processes\nLess material, prototype, and product waste\nSavings through the complete integrations of engineering workflows\nGives contract manufacturers access to centralized records, reports, documentation\nImproved forecasting to reduce material cost\nThe implementation is crucial to a successful PLM integration.\nTo see an ROI there has got to be an \u201cI\u201d. It is easy to get carried away with, and dream solely about the \u201cR\u201d rather than focusing on the \u201cI\u201d. How then can a manufacturer properly invest in PLM?\nEmployees must be properly prepared for PLM, as they may be reluctant to change. We are creatures of habit, after all.\nCurrent processes should be optimized. PLM fine-tunes manufacturing processes which are already in effect. Sadly it is not a miracle, business-saving system. PLM implementation makes good processes, better.\nPLM works in conjunction with other programs. It\u2019s important to do the necessary research before-hand to ensure the PLM consulting company can provide the necessary adapters. Some can. Some can\u2019t.\nPLM implementations take time; therefore, it would be prudent to ensure a positive working relationship between the provider and manufacturer.\nNew or very small businesses who are not geared to grow or who do not generate enough revenue may not be able to afford an implementation. The promises associated with PLM integrations are tantalizing, but until a PLM candidate reaches a critical level, it won\u2019t be beneficial.\nPLM is a proven technology. With the proper preparation and willingness to invest certain amounts of time, money, and effort, the payoff will be all that was hoped for and more.",

This guide has been well established in Austria since 2004 and has evolved from a project at the Danube University Krems (Austria). In order to achieve a successful market launch, the project\u2019s partners from Poland, the Czech Republic, Romania and the Netherlands will adopt the Austrian service according to their national cultural, social and legal circumstances.\nUniv.-Prof. Mag.

In this respect, the digital aided guide shall help fathers-to-be to overcome paternal reservations and to get prepared for their new role in a playful way. The acceptance of the application in general public is well documented in Austria by a user count of more than 150.000 people. Thematically structured chapters give insight to the basics of baby care, medical aspects as well as detecting the most important dangers.\nThe internationalization of the project will support that a large number of citizens of the participating EU-member countries will soon be able to access this service. The Austrian research associate of the project, the Department for Information and Knowledge Engineering (ike) at the Danube University Krems, will primarily take on the coordination of the user-sided evaluation of the adapted digital aided guides. Thereby, the aim is to find out how the national versions will be accepted by users in the respective countries. Based on its research experiences, the Department for Information and Knowledge Engineering will develop a standardized evaluation design, which is supposed to be tested in all participating nations.\nDAD Project Homepage\nDigital Aided Guide in Austria\nThe DAD Project is funded by the European Union as part of the eTEN-initiative (6th Framework Programme of the European Community).

        "raw_content": "56585A Tourist\u2019s Guide to Soweto\nA Tourist\u2019s Guide to Soweto\nSoweto has had an infamous history which played a huge role in the liberation of the South African people.\nFirst established in 1904 as townships, the name Soweto referred to those townships in the south-west region and was first used in 1963. Soweto jumped to prominence to the world\u2019s eyes in the 1980s when the apartheid government relocated black South Africans to these townships.\nToday, Soweto stands tall as a place that keeps the memories of a people who fought for their rights alive. It has changed greatly from the shanty stricken township of the past to a developed area which proudly displays its history and welcomes visitors.\nIf you intend on exploring these local restaurants, you might want to explore some of the heritage sites in the area. Having your own vehicle to do so is a big advantage. If you don\u2019t have your own set of wheels, car hire Johannesburg would be a great place to start looking.\nSoweto is a place with a rich history seen in its various landmarks. The Kliptown Museum is one such landmark. It is an open air museum that displays photographs, paintings, and clippings while incorporating song and storytelling to tell the story of Soweto.\nThe Hector Pieterson Museum and Memorial is yet another solid mark in Soweto\u2019s history as it commemorates a 12-year-old boy killed in the Soweto uprising. The Mandela House is a place that preserves the rich history of the Mandela family.\nDining out is something every tourist must do to enjoy the cultural cuisine of South Africa. Soweto has a good number of this. Choc\u2019s Restaurant and Bar is one such place that offers local cuisine like mogodu and pap.\nIt also has a full bar to satisfy your thirst. For a blend of jazz and interesting local blends visit the Jazz Maniacs Restaurant which has contemporary jazz playing continually. It captivates your taste buds with dishes such as rice pilaf and pan-fried lamb with pap.\nMandela\u2019s Family Restaurant is another place worthy of mention. It is the go-to place for Soweto bunny chow.\nCulture Hubs\nTo tap into the history and culture of the South African people, you must visit the Credo Mutwa Cultural Village. This is a village filled with the works of a sangoma called Credo Mutwa.\nA sangoma is a spiritual leader and healer. He was also an artist as depicted by the life-size sculptures that are in memory of Zulu warriors and chiefs. The village is believed to be the home of ancestral spirits.\nAnother culture spot worth visiting is the Oppenheimer Gardens which was a hiding place for students in the youth uprising. It is now a bird sanctuary with sculptures that tell the African tale.\nWhat are you waiting for? All you need is good company and a reliable set of wheels (if not, car hire South Africa is cheap and easy) and you\u2019re ready to explore.",

        "title": "Study Shows CEREC Veneers Are Great | Summerlin, Las Vegas",
        "raw_content": "We usually talk about the CAD/CAM system CEREC for its ability to make dental crowns in one day. And it\u2019s great for that purpose, with results that rival or exceed those for lab-made crowns. But CEREC can be used for any ceramic restoration, including inlays, onlays, and even veneers.\nNow a new study shows that CEREC veneers actually hold up very well in real-world situations. Although we\u2019re probably still not going to use CEREC for a full smile makeover, this does show that it could be a great option when you\u2019re looking for one or two veneers. That means people can get chipped teeth repaired or have gaps in their smile closed in just one visit.\nHigh Success with Hundreds of Veneers\nFor this study, researchers placed 197 ceramic laminate veneers in 71 patients. They monitored the restorations for five years. There were two types of veneers in the study, with 92 IPS Empress and 105 IPS e.max veneers. Researchers looked at the survival of veneers, their success rate, many different aspects of appearance and performance, as well as patient satisfaction.\nThe study showed that the results had a survival rate of 99% after the five years, with just two fractures. Overall, the success rate of the veneers was rated at 96.4%. Overall patient satisfaction was 95.5%.\nAlthough both types of veneers had good success rates, one had higher success than the other. The e.max veneers had a 100% survival rate. They had no chips, no debonding, and a 90% perfect color match. No patients in this study experienced hypersensitivity related to their veneers.\nThe results of this study are good, and we hope that they continue the study to show how well the veneers hold up over even longer time frames.\nCEREC Is a Great Choice for Your Restorations\nThis study gives us more support for the quality and longevity of CEREC veneers. If you are looking for high-quality ceramic restorations that can be placed in one visit, CEREC restorations are a great choice.\nIn the hands of an experienced cosmetic dentist, these restorations can match the quality of restorations produced in a lab. And the convenience of getting them placed in one visit means they can help you restore your smile according to your need.\nIf you have a chipped tooth, you might in the past have decided on dental bonding to treat it. The main advantage of dental bonding is that it can be completed in one visit, but it\u2019s softer, discolors over time, and doesn\u2019t last as long as veneers. With CEREC, you can get longer-lasting, stain resistant veneers instead. And when you want to close an unattractive gap in your smile, CEREC can do that in one day as well.\nAre You Looking for Convenience and Quality?\nIf you\u2019re looking for ceramic veneers in Las Vegas, and you want to get convenience without having to sacrifice quality, we can help. Please call (702) 873-0324 today for an appointment with cosmetic dentist Dr. James B. Polley in Summerlin.",

For every three-year-old child in the city, there is a spot in a municipal or private kindergarten. Parents can also choose other options such as cr\u00e8ches, after-school day-care centres or day nannies. For further information see the following websites: municipal department Linz (in German).\nCr\u00e8ches in Linz\nThere are 27 municipal cr\u00e8ches and kindergartens with cr\u00e8che groups, seven private facilities with cr\u00e8che groups and three Caritas facilities with cr\u00e8che groups in Linz (figures as of October 2012). At the beginning of the school year 2012/2013, overall 761 children were looked after in these care facilities. More than a fifth of them attended municipal facilities.\nAdmission of children whose primary residence is not in Linz: according to Upper Austrian law, the city or village of primary residence is to contribute a fee to the city or village where the child attends kindergarten. If your child's primary residence is not in Linz, your child can only be admitted to a kindergarten in Linz if there are free spots and the city or village of primary residence pays the required contribution.\nThe admission period for the school year in which the child is to attend a cr\u00e8che ends on 31 March of the same year.\nKindergartens in Linz\nFor children aged three to five, Linz offers 51 municipal, 19 private and 23 Caritas kindergartens as well as a teacher-training kindergarten. At the beginning of the school year 2012/2013, overall 5,316 children were looked after in all kindergartens. Two thirds of the kindergarteners in Linz were cared for in municipal facilities.\nSince 1 September, 2009, attending kindergarten has been free of charge in Linz.\nSince 1 January, 2013, a small income-adjusted meals fee has been due in municipal kindergartens. This fee is calculated based on the gross household income and ranges from \u20ac 0 to \u20ac 54.08 per month for every child.\nAdmission for the school year in which the child is to attend kindergarten ends on 31 March of the same year.\nAfter-school day-care centres in Linz\nAfter-school day-care centres in Linz offer a wide selection of day care and educational activities to children and teenagers from age 6 to 14. At the beginning of the school year 2012/2013, 4,215 children and teenagers of compulsory school age were cared for in 31 municipal, seven private and four Caritas-run after-school day-care centres.\nRegistration is possible all year round directly at the after-school day-care centres. For a child to be admitted to an after-school day-care centre in Linz, the child's and at least one parent's primary residence have to be in Linz.\nAdmission of children whose primary residence is not in Linz: according to Upper Austrian law, the city or village of primary residence is to contribute a fee to the city or village where the child attends an after-school day-care centre.\nDay nannies in Linz\nDay nannies are trained individuals who provide care for minors in their own homes for several hours up to the entire day.\nIn Linz, Verein Aktion Tagesm\u00fctter Ober\u00f6sterreich (in German):\nintroduces day nannies to interested families,\noffers initial and further training to day nannies,\nhires day nannies.\nDay nannies report to the provincial government of Upper Austria in legal as well as pedagogical matters. Day nannies must apply for an authorisation by the provincial government in writing.\nPilot project \"Gender-sensitive early childhood education\"\n\"Girls play with dolls, boys play with cars.\" The department for women's affairs of the City of Linz and the women's affairs committee of the City Council decided to actively counteract such stereotypes: the City of Linz launched a project in the kindergarten on the R\u00f6merberg offering education that was completely free of such traditional gender patterns.\nGender-sensitive early childhood education supports girls and boys in discovering and exploring their talents and interests without being assigned narrow gender roles. The children are thus granted new perspectives and greater opportunities for their future. The pilot project \"Gender-sensitive early childhood education\" started in September 2005 and lasted until July 2008. It was started on the initiative of the women's affairs committee of the City Council and the department of women's affairs of the City of Linz. A working group with representatives from politics and administration as well as pedagogues also accompanied and contributed to the project.\n\"Gender-sensitive early childhood education\" is not about bringing out the feminine side of boys and the masculine side of girls, but creating equal and fair conditions for both sexes. Because from an early age, children are, often unconsciously, subjected to traditional gender roles.\nOther facilities offering childcare support in Upper Austria\nFor an overview of all childcare facilities according to the applicable Upper Austrian law on childcare, such as cr\u00e8ches, kindergartens, after-school day-care centres and day nannies, see: http://www.ooe-kindernet.at (in German).\nKompass competence centre for maternity leave and career (in German): easy access to care services close to one's home or in the region is a step towards securing childcare services parents are happy with in the long run, especially in emergency situations.

        "raw_content": "Through the Fence and Onto the Stoop\nBy T.E. McMorrow | January 25, 2018 - 11:37am\nThe man who drove his pickup through a split-rail fence and crashed into the front steps of this house on Sag Harbor\u2019s Main Street Friday night ended up under arrest on drunken driving charges.\tT.E. McMorrow\nA Main Street, Sag Harbor, resident was awakened a little before midnight Friday by the sound of a car crashing through a split-rail fence and into the stoop of her house. Charles T. Theisen, 30, who lives in Sag Harbor, was allegedly driving a 2013 Ford 150-XLT pickup when he lost control of the vehicle at the intersection of Main and John Streets, veered off the road, plowed through the fence, and across about 15 yards of lawn, coming to a stop when he struck a wrought-iron bannister at the stoop of the house, which is owned by Julia Bitton.\nAccording to the arresting officer, Mr. Theisen had been headed south on Main Street at an unsafe speed and lost control while making an illegal lane change. Police said he was not wearing a seatbelt and apparently was thrown headfirst into the windshield, suffering multiple lacerations to his face and head. The truck, which was impounded, was totaled.\nThe arresting officer said Mr. Theisen\u2019s breath smelled \u201cstrongly of an intoxicating beverage,\u201d and that \u201che was extremely unsteady on foot.\u201d The officer reported that Mr. Theisen said, \u201cI was drinking in town, and, obviously, drove drunk, and crashed my truck.\u201d\nTaken to Stony Brook Southampton Hospital, police said he refused three times to have blood drawn to test the level of alcohol in his system. He was released from custody at the hospital, and is scheduled to be arraigned in Sag Harbor Village Justice Court on March 2. Because of his refusal to submit to a chemical test, however, his license will be suspended when he is arraigned.\nAnother man arrested on Sag Harbor Main Street over the weekend was still in county jail yesterday morning, charged with a felony of driving drunk with a child under 15 in the car under Leandra\u2019s Law. The law is named for a 9-year-old who died in an accident in Manhattan involving a drunken driver in 2009.\nPolice said a patroling officer noticed a 2010 Ford illegally parked on Main Street in front of LT Burger. The officer said the car had been there for at least a half-hour before he approached it. Police said Froylan A. Benitez, 43, of Springs was passed out behind the wheel, with the engine running and his foot on the brake.\n\u201cAfter several minutes banging on the driver\u2019s window, the defendant did awake, and rolled down the rear driver\u2019s side window,\u201d the officer reported. Seated in the backseat, police said, were Mr. Benitez\u2019s two daughters, ages 8 and 6. Mr. Benitez then rolled down the driver\u2019s window, saying he was waiting for his wife. Asked to perform roadside sobriety tests, police said, his breath test allegedly produced a reading of .19 of 1 percent, well over the .08 that defines intoxication, as well as the .18 reading that automatically raises charges to the aggravated level.\nCharged with felony drunken driving because of the alleged presence of children, he was also charged with two misdemeanors \u2014 endangering the welfare of a child. Bail was set Monday morning for Mr. Benitez at $5,000, which was not posted as of yesterday morning.\nEast Hampton Town police made one drunken driving arrest this week, that of Juan C. Varon, 22, of East Hampton. Driving a 2013 Subaru north on Abraham\u2019s Path near Birdie Lane, he was pulled over on Friday night, police said, because his muffler had been altered to amplify its sound. \u201cI had three Coronas at Indian Wells Tavern,\u201d he reportedly told the officer.\nBesides a misdemeanor drunken-driving charge, he is facing a misdemeanor charge of unlicensed driving. Police said his license had been suspended by Southampton Town Justice Court for failure to answer a summons. At headquarters, his breath test allegedly produced a reading of .09.\nMr. Varon was released the next morning without having to post bail, but with a future date on East Hampton Town Justice Lisa R. Rana\u2019s crowded criminal calendar.",

        "raw_content": "Is the Information Technology Agreement Facilitating Latecomer Manufacturing and Innovation? India's Experience | East-West Center | www.eastwestcenter.org\nA defining characteristic of today's international trading system is that plurilateral trade agreements like the Information Technology Agreement (ITA) are gaining in importance relative to the gridlocked Doha round of multilateral trade negotiations. These more selective trade agreements pose new and so far little understood challenges for the governance of the international trading system, especially with regard to the distribution of liberalization gains among participants which differ in their stage of development, their institutions, and their resources and capabilities.\nThe paper examines India's experience with ITA. Initially, the main concern was to attract inward FDI and to facilitate the growth of its then still nascent IT services industry. For electronics manufacturing however, the analysis shows that gains from trade liberalization were overshadowed by substantial costs - with rising electronics imports inflating the country's current account deficit to unsustainable record highs, while eroding domestic electronic manufacturing and innovation.\nTo improve reciprocity in the distribution of gains from ITA, the paper suggests that latecomers like India deserve, under certain conditions, special and differentiated treatment. In turn, these countries need to agree to reforms that reduce investment barriers in their domestic industries, such as restrictive regulations and discrimination against foreign direct investment.\nPublications by East-West Center Authors on Innovation, Economic Integration, and Growth\nMega-Regionalism \u2014 New Challenges for Trade and Innovation Conference Papers",

        "raw_content": "MPC Braves inflation headwinds with Hold call\n26 September 2018 : The Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) voted to retain all monetary policy levers at their previous levels. Specifically, seven out of ten members voted to maintain the monetary policy rate (MPR) at 14% albeit with three of these seven opting to increase the cash reserve ratio (CRR) from 22.5% to 24.0%. Meanwhile, the three dissenting committee members moved to increase the MPR by 25bps.\nThe decision tallies with analyst\u2019s expectations in two ways as they had predicted a \u201cHOLD\u201d decision and also suggested the MPC would tilt even further towards a rate hike, which played out in the fact that some members also voted for an increase in the CRR. Analysts note that the focus on the CRR indicates the committee\u2019s worries over excess system liquidity ahead of the 2019 elections. Moreover, the CBN may be more open to raising the CRR as its Real Sector Support Facility gives it the flexibility to remit banks\u2019 CRR funds to those that lend to the real sectors.\nPrice and exchange rate trend remain key\nNoting the reasons for their final decision, the CBN Governor highlighted that while tightening may bolster price and exchange rate stability, it would impact on economic growth and financial system stability. Furthermore, the Governor expressed cautious optimism over the near-term trend of external reserves amid strong oil prices and stable production\u2014which would be crucial as Nigeria tries to weather the storm of U.S. monetary tightening. Overall, analysts believe that the focus of Nigeria\u2019s monetary policy remains the same\u2014how to moderate volatile inflation in a low-growth economy\u2014and maintaining the status quo remains the most prudent choice.\nAnalysts consider this September decision to be a pivotal one and note that it is now very unlikely that the CBN would alter its policy path before the 2019 elections as the expected rise in inflation and capital outflows have been factored into this HOLD decision. Thus, unless analysts observe a material change in price or exchange rate stability, analysts expect the monetary policy status quo to remain until March 2019 at the very least.",

        "raw_content": "Changeover to digital TV off to a smooth start\nFor most viewers, the transition to digital TV amounted to a minor hiccup at most. But the industry estimated that 12 million homes had not installed the necessary converter boxes, putting them at risk of losing TV altogether, reports the New York Times. Across the country, television stations set up help lines and community organizations held events to aid confused viewers. Most stations didn\u2019t receive the flood of calls they had expected, a sign that the transition was smoother than many had predicted. (Read \"Schools mull digital TV\u2019s implications\")\nMike Burgess, the general manager of KOB in Albuquerque, said he had braced himself for calls when the station switched at 5 a.m. on Friday. According to Nielsen, Albuquerque had the highest rate of unprepared viewers of any market in the country. Acknowledging his surprise, he said the station had logged only three calls in the first digital hours. As of Saturday evening, the station had received about 150 calls.\nMost American households now pay for television through a cable or satellite company. They were mostly unaffected by the switch, which will allow state-of-the-art wireless services and emergency communications to exist on the newly available analog spectrum space. But millions still watch free TV with an antenna, and they have borne the burden of the digital transition. While TV is primarily an entertainment medium, government officials are emphasizing its use in emergencies. Frank Michel, the communications director for the Houston mayor\u2019s office, said TV access was vital for the coming hurricane season\u2026",

        "raw_content": "One of the most important take homes from the guidelines is that although the rules surrounding audits of UK companies operating solely in the UK remain unchanged, there will be additional requirements for UK companies operating cross-border.\nThe notice goes on to say that \u201ccertain exemptions in the Companies Act 2006 (CA 2006) relating to the preparation of individual accounts will no longer be extended to companies with parents or subsidiaries incorporated in the EU\u201d.\nEU-adopted IFRS continue to be applied to UK listed companies and the UK will unilaterally provide a transitional period in the field of audit until the end of 2020. This will give auditors time to apply for a qualification recognised in the UK and or undertake an aptitude test.\nAccounting and corporate reporting\nUK incorporated subsidiaries and parents of EU businesses will continue to be subject to the UK\u2019s corporate reporting regime. However certain exemptions in the Companies Act 2006 relating to preparation of individual accounts will no longer be extended to companies with parents or subsidiaries incorporated in the EU.\nFor example, a UK company is exempted from having to prepare individual accounts if it is dormant, and part of a group of an EU parent company that prepares group accounts. This will only apply if the parent company is in the UK.\nUK businesses with a branch operating in the EU will become third country businesses and will be required to comply with specific accounting and reporting requirements for such businesses in the Member State in which they operate. Complying with the Companies Act 2006 may no longer be enough to satisfy the relevant member state\u2019s requirements.\nAny subsidiary and parent of EU companies established in the UK will need to make themselves familiar with the exemptions in the Companies Act 2006 which will no longer be extended such as certain exemptions to prepare group accounts.\nBranches of EU companies established in the UK will also become subject to additional requirements under the overseas company\u2019s regime similarly to non-EU companies that have branches here and there may be further disclosures to companies house required.\nClearly post Brexit clients with overseas interest need to find out, in their specific circumstances, the rules which impact accounts preparation and their need for an audit.\nIf you would like to discuss any of the above, then please contact Gerry.collins@ecovis.co.uk.",

Even in the digital age, having a website is not enough; you need to be able to bring in large amounts of traffic and target an audience that really wants to hear what you have to say. But besides traditional forms of advertising, how can you make that happen?\nOne method, among many others, is through SEO. Wikipedia defines SEO as the following:\n\"Search engine optimization (SEO) is the process of affecting the visibility of a website or a web page in a search engine's unpaid results - often referred to as \"natural,\" \"organic,\" or \"earned\" results. In general, the earlier (or higher ranked on the search results page), and more frequently a site appears in the search results list, the more visitors it will receive from the search engine's users.\"\nWhile this may make a good deal of sense, there's far more to it than that, especially when it comes to Wordpress. SEO for Wordpress is our best of the breed course to master the techniques you need to bring in more traffic to your website or blog. We have distilled the scattered information and have created a straight forward curriculum to provide our students a quick and easy method to get their site on top in search rankings.

        "title": "Rail delivery of crude oil and petroleum products rising - Today in Energy - U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA)",
        "raw_content": "Rail delivery of crude oil and petroleum products rising\nSource: U.S. Energy Information Administration, based on the Association of American Railroads.\nNote: Data are weekly average originations for each month, are not seasonally adjusted, and exclude U.S. operations of Canadian National Railways and Canadian Pacific Railway; one carload holds 30,000 gallons.\nMore U.S. crude oil is being shipped by rail, especially from North Dakota where a lack of pipelines has companies relying on tank cars to bring the state's soaring oil production to market. Pipelines remain the most popular transport option, carrying about two-thirds of U.S. oil and petroleum products, but rail is on the rise.\nThe Association of American Railroads (AAR) tracks combined rail movements of oil and refined petroleum products. In the first ten months of 2011, nearly 300,000 tank cars transported U.S. oil and petroleum products, up 9.1% from the same period in 2010, according to AAR. The growth in petroleum-by-rail shipments is much stronger than the 1.8% increase for all railroad cargo combined during the same period.\nWhile AAR does not issue separate data on crude oil and product shipments via rail, it notes that anecdotal evidence indicates most of the growth in the crude oil and petroleum products category is likely due to crude shipments. Based on different sources of rail traffic data, the trade group said shipments of crude oil and liquefied natural gas accounted for about 2% of all carloads in 2008, 3% in 2009, 7% in 2010, and about 11% so far in 2011. One carload holds 30,000 gallons of oil.\nTank cars are in strong demand in North Dakota, where oil production has soared from about 343,000 barrels per day (bbl/d) in January to a record high of about 464,000 bbl/d in September, according to North Dakota's Department of Minerals Resources (DMR), due to the increasing amount of crude oil extracted from rock in the Bakken Shale. DMR expects North Dakota will pass California during the second quarter of next year to become the third biggest oil-producing state. Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF) and other railway companies are building or expanding terminals and adding tank cars to transport North Dakota's growing oil supplies to Gulf Coast refineries.\nOn November 7, the first crude oil unit train on the Bakken Oil Express, a newly constructed rail hub near Dickinson, North Dakota, departed via the BNSF Railway carrying its first shipment\u201470,000 barrels of crude oil destined for St. James, Louisiana. The Bakken Oil Express receives Bakken-area crude oil by both truck and pipeline and has a current takeaway capacity of 100,000 bbl/d. The Bakken Oil Express is already planning a second phase of construction that would significantly expand its takeaway capacity to more than 250,000 bbl/d.\nDeliveries of tank cars should total about 8,000 this year, up from only 4,839 last year, and then increase to 11,000 tank cars in 2012, according to Economic Planning Associates Inc., a consulting firm that tracks rail car assemblies. The firm does not have a breakdown of how many of the new tank cars will be devoted to carrying crude oil. Tank cars are also used for shipping ethanol, chemicals, fertilizer, and corn syrup.\nTank cars would also be useful in the major oil hub of Cushing, Oklahoma, where a glut of supply is depressing the key U.S. benchmark crude oil price. Pipelines bringing oil into Cushing from the north are nearly full and there is not enough pipeline infrastructure to move oil south out of the area to Gulf Coast refineries. The Surface Transportation Board (STB), the federal agency that resolves railroad rate and service disputes and reviews railroad mergers, told EIA that it saw little movement in recent months of crude oil out of Cushing by rail. Railway companies send the STB confidential information on their cargo shipments and where they are sending them.\nTags: crude oil, liquid fuels, North Dakota, oil/petroleum, states, transportation",

        "raw_content": "The TOTAL refuelling station on Karlsruhe\u2019s S\u00fcdtangente ring road was commissioned on Wednesday 6th September in presence of Jacques Sacreste, EDF R&D Vice President International & Partnership. This H2 refuelling station \u2013 the tenth in the German federal state of Baden\u00ad-W\u00fcrttemberg \u2013 is distinguished by an innovative energy concept: hydrogen will be produced on-site, using the electricity which will be generated by solar renewable energy. This is a way to electrify mobility and make it low carbon.\n\u2018Green hydrogen\u2019 from electrolysis powered by solar energy\nDeveloped in partnership with TOTAL and the Dresden company Sunfire, this hydrogen refuelling station marks the first time that a high temperature electrolysis technology in flexible operation is used for the production of hydrogen. It is funded by the state of Baden-W\u00fcrttemberg\u2019s BWPLUS programme and administrated by EIFER. High temperature electrolysers have an efficiency close to 90% for converting electrical energy into chemical energy. This is due to their high operating temperatures of up to 850\u00b0C and the possibility of supplying the required energy in the form of heat.\n\u201cThis project allows EIFER to demonstrate and assess in real operations high temperature electrolysis technology, which has been tested and evaluated at the cell and stack level in our laboratories for several years now, at the systems level as part of its industrial application,\u201d explains Dr Annabelle Brisse, who heads the project \u2018Electrolytic Hydrogen\u2019 for the EDF Group.\nThe scientific monitoring of the hydrogen refuelling station will involve testing the electrolyser\u2019s load sequence operating capability of over 5000 hours. Using a monitoring system, all of the facility\u2019s system parameters (e.g. electricity, voltage, temperature, pressure etc.) will be recorded, and then evaluated and analysed by EIFER.\nContact EIFER: Dr. Annabelle Brisse, Maxime Zeller",

        "raw_content": "Markets \u2013 Western Europe\nWestern Europe is the Group\u2019s largest market for consumer durables and professional products.\nThe household appliance market the region is dominated by replacement products as a result of high penetration in most product categories and low or stagnated population growth.\nMeanwhile, an increase in the number of households, due to a rising number of the elderly combined with the small living spaces in most homes, has led to higher demand for compact and user-friendly products.\nWestern Europe is made up of many countries and language areas, which has resulted in widely varying consumer patterns and the establishment of a large number of appliance manufacturers, brands and retailers. The low degree of consolidation is one reason for overcapacity and price pressure in the industry.\nThe market for professional kitchens is characterized by the presence of many manufacturers who often specialize in only one product category. In comparison, the market for professional laundry equipment is served by fewer players able to supply a larger product portfolio.\nElectrolux has significant market share in both appliances and vacuum cleaners in Western Europe, which is the Group\u2019s largest market. A well-reasoned strategy with several product launches in recent years has led to Electrolux further strengthening its position, for example, in the built-in segment.\nAround 65 per cent of sales of Professional Products occur in Western Europe, with strong positioning in restaurants, hospitals and commercial laundries. Despite the weak macroeconomic trend, the market for built-in appliances continues to experience long term growth and Electrolux is capturing market share. Attractively designed, rechargeable handheld vacuum cleaners are continuing to capture an increasingly large share of the vacuum cleaner market and Electrolux is a leader in this category.",

        "raw_content": "Queen Watching Play\nThe Elizabethans loved music and their Queen was no exception. Elizabeth enjoyed listening to music, instrumental and vocal, encouraged musicians and composers, and was a skilled musician herself, playing the virginals and the lute.\nThe Queen playing a lute\nThe Queen was also fond of dancing. To keep herself fit, she would dance the difficult and demanding dance The Galliard every morning! The Queen also loved to dance with her courtiers, and was especially fond of The Volta. In this dance, the ladies elegantly jumped high in the air, although not everyone believed it was elegant, as some people thought it was disgraceful as the women showed their knees. Robert Dudley also loved to dance, and he and Elizabeth danced as well together as they rode. A dance was even named after him, The Leicester Dance. As she got older and could not dance as much as she used to, Elizabeth enjoyed watching her ladies dance. Elizabeth also liked to sing and reputedly sang well.\nQueen Elizabeth Dancing\nElizabeth was also an incredibly gifted scholar, and loved learning. She reputedly would often study for two or three hours a day, and was well read in the Classics, as well as having a very extensive knowledge of history. Her skill for languages meant that she could read books in Latin or French, and especially as she grew older, she loved to translate Classic works into English. She also liked to write poetry, and a few of her poems still survive.\nRead Two Poems By Queen Elizabeth I\nElizabeth was also a patron of arts and literature, and loved watching plays, masques, and other dramatic performances. She had her own company of actors, called \"The Queen's Players\", and these would often perform plays for her and her courtiers. Robert Dudley also had his own company, and he would pay them to perform before the Queen.\nThe Queen also loved to hunt. On horseback, she would hunt deers and stags with her courtiers, and when the unfortunate animal was caught, she would be invited to cut its throat. In 1575, the French Ambassador reported that she had killed \"six does\" with her cross bow. Hunting was quite an event, and would take several hours, so the Queen and her courtiers would often have a picnic in the forest.\nEmbroidery was also a popular pastime for women. Mary Queen of Scots was a very gifted embroideress, and Elizabeth too would sometimes spend an evening embroidering with her maids of honour and ladies in waiting.\nThere were also games that the Queen could play on wet days or winter nights, such as backgammon, or chess, or cards. Queen Mary I had been an avid gambler, and it is likely that Elizabeth too enjoyed a wager with her courtiers.\nProfile | Biography | Marriage & Succession | Queen's Palaces | Power & Government | Queen's Death | Screen Queens | Citing Website |",

        "raw_content": "Allow me to introduce the \u201cimpossible girl\u201d. She\u2019s visited hundreds of galaxies with a Time Lord and ruled the British Empire, dealt with dukes and Daleks (I\u2019ll leave you to decide which are worse), but right now the most impossible thing she\u2019s facing is trying to find somewhere to chat to me on the phone without cracking up the people around her. \u201cSorry!\u201d She laughs when we finally connect. \u201cYou just caught me in the car with my driver and I knew he\u2019d just giggle at everything I\u2019m saying!\u201d\nOf course, the girl in question is Jenna Coleman, who obtained the tagline from her role as the Eleventh Doctor\u2019s companion in the beloved BBC series Doctor Who. Accompanying both Matt Smith and Peter Capaldi, Jenna rose to fame as Clara Oswald, the witty school teacher with the ability to charm alien life forms in numerous universes.\nThe chance to escape to different world\u2019s has always appealed to Jenna and exploring alternate realities is what first made her want to get into acting. \u201cI remember reading Enid Blyton and loads of books and their worlds becoming very vivid in my head,\u201d she recalls. \u201cI just remember being really, really young and for some reason it always just felt very simple. Acting was always what I wanted to do, it was more the \u2018how\u2019 that was always the more complicated thing.\u201d\nPutting in the hard work to make the \u201chow\u201d happen, Jenna scored her first role in Emmerdale in 2005, before getting the coveted companion role in 2012. Stepping into such a popular fandom was initially quite intimidating, but Jenna has since established a legacy as one of the most adored of the Doctor\u2019s partners (soz, Martha). \u201cI\u2019ve never done anything where you\u2019re the only new cog in a very oiled machine,\u201d she explains. \u201cIt\u2019s like you\u2019re literally the only newbie on your own, which is quite a strange thing. You kind of have to hop onto a train that\u2019s already full-speed ahead.\u201d\nRapping up her final season as Clara, Jenna was thrust straight into yet another world. This time: Victorian England. Taking on the starring role as Queen Victoria in the acclaimed ITV series Victoria, it was a bit of an adjustment from a Cyberman fighting sidekick. \u201cI had like three weeks to prep so it was a really hard one actually,\u201d she remembers. \u201cAnd there was so much research material!\u201d\nDoing her homework, Jenna dove into Queen Vic\u2019s diaries to try and get into the mindset of a young woman entrusted with ruling an entire empire. \u201cThere\u2019s so much that people think they know about her,\u201d she tells me. \u201cYou\u2019ve got the diaries, you\u2019ve got the historical biographies. You\u2019re taking someone that we all think we know so well and we know so iconically from portraits and history. I\u2019m just trying to really get behind that and bring her to life - really peel away the layers and get to know her. It was a challenge but I also love it.\u201d She laughs. \u201cI didn\u2019t think I liked her at first! I love her, but I don\u2019t always like her. What\u2019s amazing is that now we\u2019re a couple of series in, I can keep going back and reading her diaries. I feel like I keep getting to her more and more and she\u2019s a bit of a companion now.\u201d\nCurrently heading into their third series, Jenna\u2019s brief break from resuming Victoria filming wasn\u2019t as relaxing as one might expect. Heading to Australia in February, instead of having some well-deserved chill time on the sunny beaches, she got straight into her most challenging role yet.\nStarring in the BBC\u2019s upcoming psychological thriller The Cry, Jenna plays the lead role of Joanna, a young mother who travels to Australia with her newborn son and slightly shitty husband amidst a custody battle over her husband\u2019s daughter from a previous marriage. Once they\u2019ve landed, all seems to be going okay when suddenly her life is thrown into disarray after her son disappears. Based on the Helen Fitzgerald novel of the same name, if you\u2019ve watched the trailer, you\u2019ll know that it\u2019s destined to be one of those shows that\u2019ll have you glued to your television screen, barely breathing, with twists and turns that will leave you speechless.\nShooting between Oz and Glasgow, it\u2019s set to come out at the end of September, filling that inevitable Bodyguard-shaped hole within our lives. Quite a difficult filming process, the show runs on two different timelines \u2212 one taking place when the baby goes missing and the other in the present day at a trial, although \u201ca trial for what?\u201d is a question I\u2019m yet to learn the answer to. \u201cWe kept calling it \u2018going down the vortex\u2019 because you\u2019re shooting all these timelines and obviously it\u2019s a psychological thriller so there are certain aspects of what you can give away and when.\u201d Jenna explains. \u201cThere\u2019s a certain version which kind of keeps everyone at arm\u2019s length a little bit, so you\u2019re never giving too much away at once.\u201d She pauses. \u201cThis will all make sense once you\u2019ve seen it, but, oh my god, in terms of playing it, it was the most narratively complicated job I\u2019ve ever done!\u201d\nNot only were the timelines hard to grasp at first, but Jenna originally found her role quite struggling too. \u201cI had real issues with the idea of playing a mother with issues. That would be fundamentally something that I maybe wouldn\u2019t be able to do justice because I\u2019m not a mother,\u201d she discloses. \u201cIt was hugely challenging. But to be honest, a lot of my friends have got new babies and a couple of them sent me the most incredible emails. I spoke with them and got really amazing, and searingly honest, details about the realities of being a new mum. It\u2019s the most beautiful thing in the world, but just because it\u2019s so beautiful it doesn\u2019t mean it doesn\u2019t come without questions about your own identity and loneliness. I think it was a really interesting way to explore post-natal depression in a way that I don\u2019t feel I have ever really seen very much on the screen.\u201d\nHer portrayal of a struggling mother is, at many times, difficult to watch. In the first episode, she\u2019s on the 24-hour- long flight to Australia, screaming baby in arms, husband fast asleep, getting disapproving looks from other passengers as she frantically tries to settle her son. It\u2019s a moment that I\u2019m sure many have been a part of, I know that I\u2019ve given my fair share of eye rolls to crying children on flights before, and it\u2019s this aspect that The Cry wants to tap into. \u201cIt has a lot of questions,\u201d Jenna muses. \u201cIt questions our society about the pressures on new mums. But also the pressure of the media, and how media can spin a version of the truth.\u201d\nThe latter is in response to the \u201cwhodunnit\u201d aspect of the show, the twist in the first episode which leads you to believe that maybe the baby hasn\u2019t only gone missing. \u201cI guess it\u2019s the funny thing of going through one of the most extreme emotional experiences of your life at the same time as being under this media scrutiny,\u201d Jenna details. \u201cThose two things coinciding and happening at once is really quite an interesting angle to look at psychologically. And an interesting story to tell.\u201d\n\u201cWho do you think did it?\u201d She asks, cueing me to launch into the various theories that are spinning around in my mind. Is it too obvious to be the ex-wife? Or how about the struggling young mum? Maybe it\u2019s the husband\u2019s daughter who is secretly jealous of her dad moving on and creating a new life? Maybe it\u2019s someone else altogether? \u201cThat\u2019s what I felt like reading it!\u201d She laughs. \u201cI felt like I didn\u2019t quite know what was going on. It was leading me in different directions and I just kept turning the page!\u201d\nWhat\u2019s not up for debate though, is the fact that Jenna is breathtaking in the show and her portrayal is sure to get her even more critical acclaim. For the \u201cimpossible girl\u201d, it really seems like she can do anything.\nPhotography - Karen Collins\nFashion - Leith Clark\nHair - Paul Donovan\nMakeup - Andrew Gallimore\nNails - Sabrina Gayle\nPhotography assistant - Matthew Booth\nFashion assistant - Harriet Elton\nArt direction - Olivia Woodgate\nProduction - Fernanda Dugdale",

        "title": "Trump and the Military Are at Odds on Climate Change",
        "raw_content": "Trump and the Military Are at Odds on Climate Change\n(Pacific Standard) \u2013 While the Trump administration has largely rejected climate change as an issue, the Department of Defense and Congress have identified it as a major potential threat to national security.\nThe United States government appears to be of two minds, with utterly opposing worldviews, on climate change policy.\nOn one hand, the Trump administration has pulled out of the Paris Climate Agreement, proposed eliminating three vital new climate satellites, reneged on an Obama-era $2 billion commitment to the Green Climate Fund, and wants to slash funding to the Environmental Protection Agency\u2018s domestic climate programs and the Department of State\u2019s USAID climate programs around the globe. The president has also denounced global warming as a hoax and a Chinese plot.\nOn the other hand, the Republican-dominated Congress has affirmed that climate change is a prominent national security threat and mandated that the Department of Defense (DOD) look closely at how climate change is going to affect key installations, while also addressing the need to boost the military\u2019s finances considerably to deal with global warming threats. When Trump\u2019s national security strategy\u2014announced in January\u2014erased climate change as a threat to U.S. security, that decision drew the ire of a bipartisan group of congressional legislators.\nAs a result of this dichotomy, the DOD has emerged as an unlikely champion of climate action in the Trump government, with the Pentagon declaring emphatically that a rapidly warming world is bringing with it alarming security risks ranging from rising sea level (which threatens naval bases such as Norfolk, Virginia, the largest in the world), to the \u201cmother of all risks\u201c\u2014unpredictable and worsening political instability around the globe brought by climate chaos.\nIndeed, Trump\u2019s own secretary of defense, Jim Mattis, was hailed before taking office as the \u201clone green hope,\u201d due to his recognition of global warming\u2019s clear and present danger.\nHowever, the U.S. military is far from being environmentally friendly. It has a horrifically destructive record as one of the planet\u2019s worst polluters, and it also can lay claim to a heavy, and largely unreported, carbon footprint (it is the single largest institutional user of fossil fuels in the world).\nA year into Trump\u2019s term, it remains to be seen whether the president\u2019s climate-unfriendly policies will curtail the DOD\u2019s global warming response. Complicating this question are efforts by the White House and Congress to wildly expand the size of the military, which could exponentially increase its fossil fuel footprint, something critics argue is the opposite of what is environmentally needed.\nA Booming U.S. Military Budget\nTrump has been a notably unorthodox Republican president, with a frequently tenuous attachment to his party\u2019s agenda. But when it comes to military spending, he is in tune with long time GOP policy. Trump is currently seeking an $18 billion military bump for 2018, compared to 2017 levels, to be made at the expense of domestic spending, including the budget of the EPA.\nArizona Senator John McCain, head of the Senate Armed Services Committee, declared this figure as \u201cinadequate\u201d and laid out his plans for a much larger increase of $85 billion. The 2018 National Defense Authorization Act, signed by the president this past December, goes much further than Trump\u2019s own figure.\nThe NDAA allots $700 billion, sailing past the $619 billion Congress agreed to in last year\u2019s bill, and includes a budget-cap-busting wish list that revamps the military and includes new navy ships, fighter jets, more troops, and a pay increase for all current officers.\nOf course, that behemoth budget boost may never happen as it is Congress that has the final say on the military budget and it has yet to vote. NDAA spending for 2018 also exceeds caps set by the 2011 Budget Control Act, and it is uncertain where the increased spending will come from.\nHowever, the NDAA does something Trump probably doesn\u2019t want it to do: it clearly designates climate change as a \u201cdirect threat\u201d to the national security of the U.S. and orders the military to submit a \u201creport on vulnerabilities to military installations and combatant commander requirements resulting from climate change over the next 30 years.\u201d\n\u201cA Threat Multiplier\u201d\nWhile the NDAA mandate is important, it is not entirely new. Climate change has been on the military\u2019s radar for well over a decade, but not due to the threat it presents to the planet\u2019s environment.\nFirst and foremost in the military mind is the Pentagon\u2019s mission: to defend the U.S. and its national interest. Seen within this framework, climate change is viewed as a \u201cthreat multiplier,\u201d rather than a distinct, standalone issue.\n\u201cClimate change will contribute to food and water scarcity, will increase the spread of disease, and may spur or exacerbate mass migration,\u201d potentially leading to civil strife and war, reads the grim forecast outlined by the 2010 DOD Quadrennial Defense Review. The Pentagon isn\u2019t alone in its predictions; a report from the American Security Project says that 70 percent of the world\u2019s nations have assessed climate change as a threat to their national security.\nHowever, the U.S. Armed Forces response isn\u2019t to immediately cut its carbon emissions in order to curb climate change. Rather, it is to determine how best to defend against the instability and chaos that climate change may bring to the international community, as well as the threat it poses to U.S. military bases and operations around the globe.\nThe World\u2019s Oceans vs. the Department of Defense\nAt home, the threat to U.S. military installations is evident. A 2011 U.S. Navy report found that a three-foot rise in sea level would endanger 128 DOD installations, valued collectively at around $100 billion. A further study by the Union of Concerned Scientists delved deeper into the future of 18 bases which already face flooding: \u201cBy the end of this century, most installations can expect a large increase in the frequency of tidal flooding, storm surges that cover greater areas at increased depth, and loss of utilized land area to the sea.\u201d\nIn short, said the UCS, U.S. coastal military bases face a \u201cflooded future.\u201d\nA three-foot sea level rise is already considered by scientists to be \u201clocked in.\u201d But many researchers believe the world could be looking at rises of eight feet, and even up to 11 feet by century\u2019s end, which would swamp pretty much all current DOD base adaptation efforts.\nCurt Storlazzi, a scientist with the U.S. Geological Survey, has been carrying out research on the Marshall Islands with funding from the DOD, to look at how climate models threaten U.S installations there. He says that, in the past, the islands were over-washed by storms roughly once every 20 to 30 years. Now, it\u2019s more like once, or even twice, per decade.\n\u201cAll I can say is we\u2019re talking decades, not centuries,\u201d before the islands are over-washed so frequently that they become almost uninhabitable, he adds. The recent Congress Armed Forces Appropriations bill states quite clearly: \u201cIn the Marshall Islands an Air Force radar installation built on an atoll at a cost of [$1 billion] is projected to be underwater within two decades.\u201d\nThis is a looming reality U.S. coastal military installations face around the globe\u2014many will be overrun by the sea and lost forever soon, without the firing of a single shot by a hostile power.\n\u201cUnleash Us From the Tether of Fuel\u201d\nAs already mentioned, the DOD is the world\u2019s oil-hungriest institution; it consumed 87.4 million barrels in 2014, with nearly half used by the Air Force, and a third burned by the Navy. A 2008 report entitled A Climate of War, and produced by Oil Change International, found that the second Iraq war emitted at least 141 million metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent.\nThe DOD also owns a mammoth amount of real estate, with several thousands of facilities and structures scattered globally, covering nearly 25 million acres\u2014all with energy demands.\nThat said, the U.S. military has been working over recent decades to reduce fossil fuel dependency. But this isn\u2019t meant to turn the military into \u201cPrius-driving tree-huggers,\u201d explains Andrew Holland, senior fellow for energy and climate at the American Security Project. The No. 1 Pentagon priority is improving mission effectiveness\u2014the ability to defend and promote U.S interests via military muscle.\nSecretary of Defense Mattis\u2019 own concerns with the need to increase mission effectiveness by decreasing fossil fuel consumption can be traced back to the second Iraq war. In 2005, he penned a document, \u201cFuture Fuels,\u201d in which he called on the Pentagon to \u201cunleash us from the tether of fuel.\u201d Reliance on oil left mobile units exposed in the Iraqi desert during refueling, and made the armed forces less nimble in their response to threats scattered across the vast desert battlefield.\nSoon after, President George W. Bush signed into force a bill that mandated the DOD reduce its fossil fuel dependency and ordered each branch to produce 25 percent of its facility energy from renewables by 2025. Since then, the Pentagon has increased energy efficiency at bases, reduced fuel use, and produced around 12.6 percent of its facility energy from renewables as of 2016.\nHowever, the vast majority, around 75 percent, of the DOD\u2019s energy consumption occurs not at facilities but in operations\u2014think hundreds of globetrotting aircraft, ships, and vehicles. This very big slice of the military\u2019s energy pie is not subject to the DOD\u2019s renewable goals.\nStill, renewable initiatives are now common-place across the services. Between 2011 and 2015, the DoD nearly tripled the number of renewable energy projects on its bases.\nThis, however, doesn\u2019t mean that preparing for climate change is now the No. 1 priority. Mattis \u201cis not saying it\u2019s the most important issue on his plate, he\u2019s just saying it is an issue,\u201d explains John Conger, former DOD comptroller and senior advisor for the Center for Climate and Security. War, and preparedness for it, is still where the action is.\nA Big, Green Fighting Machine?\nMost experts don\u2019t believe that the White House\u2019s views on climate change will significantly redirect the Pentagon from its current course regarding climate change. Even as Trump came to power last January, the U.S. Navy was publishing its Climate Change Installation Adaption and Resilience Planning Handbook. And the navy base at Norfolk continues working to adapt to rising sea levels.\n\u201cThe Department of the Navy needs to be prepared to mitigate all adverse impacts to its mission from a variety of risk sources, including but not limited to climate change,\u201d Kenneth Huss, a U.S. Navy spokesperson told Mongabay, indirectly affirming that the Navy is still committed to climate change adaptation: We \u201cwill continue to assess and respond to all issues that have a potential to impact the readiness of our national security missions, planning, and installations.\u201d\nLikewise, Richard Spencer, Trump\u2019s pick for Navy secretary, has declared that he is \u201ctotally aware of the rising water issue\u201d and he has pledged to prepare his military branch for global warming.\nAnalysts are less certain, however, whether DOD adaptation efforts will continue at the same rate under Trump as under President Barack Obama. Holland and Conger say they don\u2019t expect dramatic changes due to the White House\u2019s denialist position. \u201cIt\u2019s not helpful, but I don\u2019t think it\u2019s fatal,\u201d agrees David Titley, a Penn State University meteorologist and former head of the Navy\u2019s climate change program. Still, no one is sure exactly how this will all play out over the next three years of Trump\u2019s term.\nA Shift in Congress\nAs mentioned earlier, Congress is pressing ahead with its plans to enhance military readiness for climate change. Titley relates how the House of Representatives and Senate have gone from being a headwind on the climate issue to a tailwind, propelling the military forward rather than marooning it in place.\nThis year\u2019s NDAA makes that clear, as does House Appropriations Committee language in the 2018 Military Construction and Veterans Affairs Appropriations Bill, which \u201curges the Secretary of Defense to plan infrastructure and other projects using the best available data and science on climate to mitigate risks to our armed forces.\u201d\nWhile not \u201cEarth-shattering legislation,\u201d Titley says that these bills are proof of how Congress has quietly and significantly shifted its view. Until recently, Congress tried to muzzle the military, telling it to not look at or talk about climate change. Now U.S. legislators are requiring the Pentagon to understand, and respond to, climate consequences. That\u2019s a momentous change, he says.\nThe State of Permanent Emergency\nBut just as significantly, if the NDAA is enacted as written, the military will see a huge increase in size. That fact comes with big concerns. More ships, planes, and troops means much more fossil fuel burned, leading to more carbon emissions that help destabilize the global climate, leading to more war and civil disturbances, and to what journalist Ross Gelbspan described as long ago as 1995 as a state of permanent emergency in which nation-states stagger from one catastrophic extreme weather event to the next.\nPerhaps with that scenario in mind, a Congressional Budget Office report released in December outlined a decade-long military build-up. The report says that, by 2027, the military\u2019s base budget should top $688 billion, 20 percent higher than peak spending back in the 1980s. This would include 237,000 more Americans in uniform and a 30 percent increase in naval capacity, achieving a 355-ship U.S. Navy. The final 2027 ship numbers would be 12 percent higher than plans under the Obama administration, according to a CBO estimate.\nCasting a glance around the globe, it appears that many other nations are rushing to enlarge their armed forces. According to research by the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute, global military spending soared to $1,686 billion in 2016, but planet-wide spending to curb climate change stood at just $359 billion in 2013.\nIncreasing the size of the military in the face of escalating climate chaos is not a strategy everyone supports. A 2016 report, Combat vs. Climate, notes that the U.S. spends 28 times as much on military security as on climate security. This Institute for Policy Studies (IFPS) report says that the increase from 1 to 4 percent in spending on climate security by the Obama administration is not remotely commensurate with the serious threat climate change poses to national security as outlined in numerous studies by the U.S. military. Nor is that expenditure sufficient to bring the military\u2019s carbon emissions under control.\nMiriam Pemberton, an IFPS research fellow and author of the 2016 report, agrees that the DOD\u2019s climate change efforts are heading down the right road, but she argues that, at the current rate, they aren\u2019t nearly enough: \u201cIf climate change is a driver of instability as the military says it is \u2026 the only way to deal with that is to cut emissions within the civilian sector as well as in the military sector.\u201d\n\u201cI think the answer isn\u2019t to green what [the armed services] are already doing, it\u2019s to reduce their spending, their infrastructure, and their huge carbon footprint,\u201d says Nick Buxton, a communications consultant with the Transnational Institute. But despite the Pentagon\u2019s efforts to green itself, analysts say, the U.S. military remains a fossil fuel-addicted enterprise.\nBuxton also sees a problem in the military serving as the sole federal bastion against climate change, even as Trump guts the capacity of other agencies to deal with the crisis. Buxton is especially concerned over the military tendency to see every issue through the myopic lens of security. Rather than dealing with root causes and playing a serious role in curbing emissions, the Pentagon, instead, is flexing its military muscle to deal with a world destabilized by climate change.\nMilitary proponents claim that eliminating DOD emissions would cut a mere 1 percent of U.S. greenhouse gas emissions, a figure arrived at through publicly available data. A decrease of this size hardly seems significant, they say. But many experts doubt the figure, and see it as low-balling. That\u2019s because the true size of the military\u2019s emissions is unknown to the general public because the DOD is exempt from reporting its carbon emissions from overseas bases and operations, according to Tamara Lorincz, a Ph.D. student at the Balsillie School for International Affairs.\nBuxton and other analysts argue that, instead of pumping more dollars into military expansion, the U.S. should do the opposite: bump up renewable energy domestically and globally and offer vulnerable communities around the world adaptation assistance. Such a strategy would help ease global tensions, he says. Instead, Trump\u2019s proposed 2018 Department of State budget would slash USAID climate programs the world over, denying vital climate change adaptation aid.\nTo his credit, Mattis has acknowledged that tackling global warming requires a \u201cwhole of government\u201d approach. That\u2019s something with which Conger agrees, noting that it\u2019s not the military\u2019s job alone to count and cut emissions: \u201cThe DOD\u2019s mission is to protect the national security of the United States,\u201d he reiterates. \u201cSo, if that requires some more greenhouse gas emissions, then so be it.\u201d\nThe current bottom line: While the U.S. military is in some ways aligned with environmentalists\u2019 goals\u2014reducing reliance on fossil fuels to make it a leaner, cheaper, more resilient fighting force\u2014it is na\u00efve to expect the DOD to take steps to solve the climate problem single-handedly, and even unwise. As an institution, it won\u2019t accept any policy that reduces its ability to make war.\nIn the final analysis, it is clear that the mega-expansion of the military as desired by the Pentagon, and as formulated by Trump and the Congress, will lead to more greenhouse gas emissions, not less. That\u2019s especially true because the military\u2019s growth is likely to come at the expense of other agencies, such as the EPA and the Department of State, along with their climate programs.\nAs a result, experts say, even as the U.S. military bulks up, its fighting forces are likely to face an exhaustingly high number of international conflicts as global warming devastates crops, shatters developing nation economies, increases the number of failed states, and leads to war after war\u2014leaving the world\u2019s future all the more insecure.\nSean Mowbray is a freelance writer and a graduate of history and international relations from the University of Dundee.

The farmer has seen both good and not-so-good crops over the years. But still he plants, trusting the land to yield its gift once more. Yes, he waits for when the picking is good.\nWe are in God\u2019s garden of grace. He cares deeply about how we grow. He is invested. He shed His own blood, gave His own life for you and for me so that we could grow into His likeness. He knows how long we need to be in the ground. All of our dreams and hopes need the nourishment of troubles, trails and hardships. Growth never comes easy. He longs for mature children who can stand the storms of life because they are fully rooted in Him.\nAlthough I still pass his house often, I have NOT seen the old farmer this entire summer (2014). I\u2019ve missed his wave. I was afraid he had passed away. Finally, last week he was back in his folding lawn chair. I gave a blow on the horn and an enthusiastic wave. He waved back with a feeble hand. Something within me said that I should stop and chat with him, but I didn\u2019t want to intrude or scare him. Still, just a mile down the road I did stop, turn around and go back to say hello face-to-face. He was very kind, and I was correct in thinking that he had been very ill. I asked if I could bring him a CD or a DVD to help pass the time and he said, \u201cNaw, young man. I don\u2019t have anything like that in my house. I\u2019m just happy to feel the sun on my face. Thanks for stopping by and for the friendly waves. That\u2019s enough for me.\u201d\nI feel honored to have met the old farmer and shake his hand. And, I might add, learn a lesson that sometimes, \u201cLess Is More\u201d and \u201cIt\u2019s Good To See The Sun.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Sponsored content Thomson Reuters\nTime running out in APA compliance challenge\nFinal implementation of MiFID II is now just under 18 months away, yet the systems required to comply with the APA regime for pre- and post-trade reporting have not yet been built. Time is running out for the industry to assess the implications of these rules and to build the systems to comply, says Chris Leonard-Appleton at Thomson Reuters.\nThe FX industry faces a monumental system build in the next 12 months as financial institutions prepare themselves for MiFID II (MiFIR).\nIn particular, the Approved Publication Arrangement (APA) regime will bring new levels of transparency to the market and poses a number of operational challenges to market participants. The rules demand pre-trade transparency of some trades and post-trade transparency of all trades, and come into force in January 2017.\nUnder the new rules, banks acting as Systematic Internalisers (SIs) and trading venues will be required to report pre-trade price and volume data of all orders and RFQs if they are below a certain size and the financial instrument is liquid. SIs will also be required to make quotes available to their clients on request for illiquid instruments below a certain size, including price and volume.\nSIs can choose how to make prices available to the market; options include their own infrastructure, their website or an APA. Much confusion reigns on what precisely needs to be made available to the market and when, given that most banks provide different prices to different clients depending on their credit relationship, amongst other factors.\nPost-trade, all trade reports need to be sent to an APA or reported by the trading venue on a real-time basis. This information needs to be published to the market no later than 15 minutes after execution unless a deferral applies. Deferrals can range from 48 hours up to four weeks should a regulator deem it necessary.\nThe industry cannot assume the implementation date\nwill slip back. It will be legally challenging for\nregulators to formally change the deadline.\nA specific hierarchy applies when deciding who has the reporting obligation post-trade. Trade on a trading venue and the trading venue will report. Trade with an SI and the SI will be required to report. Otherwise, the seller will be required to report, meaning that the obligation can fall more widely than just the trading venues or the sell side.\nTime is tight to get ready for these changes. While pre- and post-trade reporting is well known in equities, FICC markets have to adapt. Solutions for equities cannot be quickly or easily recalibrated to meet the requirements of FICC markets. Every asset class has its own nuances, with different information required and gathered from different places.\nThe infrastructure through which that data flows has been configured for a specific purpose. Reconfiguring it with new fields to allow new data to flow through it is not a simple task.\nMiFID will apply from January 3, 2017. The final rules for pre- and post-trade transparency, which include the identification of liquid and illiquid instruments, as well as quantitative thresholds to demarcate \u2018small\u2019 trades, will not be available to the industry until the end of September when the European Securities and Markets Authority passes them to the European Commission for approval.\nThe industry cannot assume the implementation date will slip back. It will be legally challenging for regulators to formally change the deadline. Ultimately, they may show a degree of forbearance after January 2017, but if that is to happen (and no regulator has signalled that they will), they will only grant forbearance to institutions that can demonstrate they understand and have taken steps towards complying with the new rules.\nThat means the industry remains in a limbo on what the final requirements will be, and the implementation window continues to shrink.\nThrough all of this, uncertainty will reign.

Apparently, it's nothing compared to the tension behind the scenes, according to T-Bone Burnett.\nThe Oscar- and Grammy-winning songwriter, musician and soundtrack supervisor behind Crazy Heart and O Brother, Where Art Thou? served as the executive music producer for the show's entire first season. However, he suddenly left the show in June, despite the fact that Burnett is married to Nashville's creator, Callie Khouri.\nNashville Season 2 first look\nNow, four months later, Burnett is opening up about the difficult circumstances which led to his exit. \"I love working with Callie,\" Burnett told The Hollywood Reporter. \"I have no problem working with Callie. I have a problem when people don't treat Callie right. I like to see artists treated with tremendous respect, and I like the executives to say, 'How can I help you do what you do?' That's what I do.\"\nBurnett specifically says it was the conflicting visions people had about what the show was really about that led to other differences in opinion. \"Some people were making a drama about real musicians' lives, and some were making a soap opera, so there was that confusion,\" he said. \"It was a knockdown, bloody, drag-out fight, every episode. You remember that show The Prisoner? If I were to tell you the truth, you'd think I was insane.\"\nBurnett's right-hand man Buddy Miller has since stepped into the executive music producer role for Nashville. Burnett has bounced back since leaving the series. He serves as the executive music producer on the upcoming film Inside Llewyn Davis, which follows a folk singer-songwriter, and comes from the Coen brothers, with whom Burnett worked with on O Brother, Where Art Thou?\nInside Llewyn Davis hits theaters on Dec. 6. Nashville airs Wednesdays at 10/9c on ABC.\nView original Why Did Music Producer T-Bone Burnett Really Leave Nashville? at TVGuide.com\nOther Links From TVGuide.com O Brother, Where Art Thou?Callie KhouriBuddy MillerThe Coen BrothersCrazy HeartNashvilleT Bone BurnettInside Llewyn Davis",

        "raw_content": "Dell's Android Smartphone Success a Matter of Managing Expectations\nDell is rumored to have a smartphone in the works that AT&T may have its eye on. Analysts agree that the move to smartphones, and the choice of Android, make sense for the PC maker.\nDell is rumored to be working on a smartphone that will run Google's Android operating system. According to a report, it's also expected to be AT&T's first Android device, though whether it would be exclusive to the carrier is unclear.\nIt would be Dell's first smartphone, though the path from computer maker to phone maker is a well-established one, already tread by Acer, Apple and Hewlett-Packard - though HP the least successfully.\nSteve Baker, an analyst with NPD Group, points to these computer makers that have already made the transition as a sign of where the industry is headed in the coming months.\n\"The cell phone is more and more becoming a tool for business people and a key tool people are using to manage their lives and surf the Web and everything else,\" he told eWEEK. \"It's logical for PC OEMs to go into smartphones.\"\nDell was said to be working on a smartphone in March, that according to Kaufman Brothers analyst Shaw Wu was rejected by U.S. carriers for not being distinct enough. In August, it was reported that Dell had debuted the Mini 3i, an Android-running smartphone for distribution in China, at a technology show in Beijing. During Dell's most recent quarterly revenue announcement, however, Brian Gladden, Dell's chief financial officer dismissed the China Mobile device as just a \"prototype\" Dell had presented.\nWhen pressed for details, Gladden responded:\n\"We showed a proof of concept prototype at the event with our partners China Mobile, who obviously we've had a relationship with. We've sold netbooks that are broadband-enabled. And we really don't have any further details to share at this time. We will continue to explore opportunities across multiple screen sizes, we've said that. From our standpoint, it's a natural extension of what we do. ... From our standpoint, we're spending an awful lot more energy on the enterprise side of our business than launching phones.\"\nIt seems Dell may now be ready to put more energy into phones, and that Android could help offer some of that previously missing distinctiveness.\n\"They have an established brand, and if they make a good product and target it properly, there's no reason they can't do well,\" said Baker.\nDell's intentions, however, are so far unclear. \"Are they planning to be more consumer or more enterprise focused? How are they going to mesh it with their other abilities?\" Baker added. \"[To be successful,] they have to find what makes their products unique in this space, and how they're going to take advantage of what it is they bring to the market.\"\nKen Hyers, an analyst with Technology Business Research, thinks a Dell smartphone will for sure target consumers. \"They're signaling that very clearly by going with Android instead of Microsoft. And I think that's a smart move. [On their first attempt,] they don't want to compete with RIM, which is the gold standard for the enterprise,\" he told eWEEK.\nBut that's not the only reason for choosing Android, he explained. The open-source Android has no licensing fees, which is appealing, and the roster of applications for the OS is quickly growing in the Android Market.\n\"It's also the newest smartphone OS for mobile. Which means that it's able to take advantage of a lot of new features, like multitouch, and to get the most out of features like the accelerometer. Having all of these in an OS that's also easy to develop for all makes sense for Dell,\" said Hyers.\nBaker adds that whether or Dell succeeds is a matter of managing expectations. \"It's not like they're out to challenge Nokia,\" he said.\nPrevious Amazon Slashes Prices for Kindle\nNext Microsoft CEO Ballmer Denies Interest In E-Readers,...",

        "raw_content": "Inconceivably, several Republicans have decided to bring their outrageously offensive views on sexual assault on the campaign trail. Worse still, they are attempting to redefine rape ... so much so that a number of \u201cRepublican Party Rape Advisory Chart\u201d graphics have popped up in cyberspace \u2014 website Daily Kos alone has three volumes, compiled by a blogger known as Brainwrap \u2014 comprised of actual quotes from candidates. In case you haven\u2019t seen any of them, let\u2019s take a look at some of the worst offenders in what I call the GOP Rape Brigade.\nUp first we have what Volume I calls the \u201cGift-from-God Rape.\u201d Indiana state treasurer Richard Mourdock, a Republican nominee for U.S. Senate, had this to say on the subject Oct. 23: \u201cEven if life begins in that horrible situation of rape, that it is something that God intended to happen.\u201d\nMourdock made the statement one day after GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney endorsed him. Romney\u2019s camp says he disagrees with the comment ... just not enough to stop supporting Mourdock\u2019s candidacy.\nThen there\u2019s \u201cLegitimate Rape,\u201d a term coined by Missouri Republican Todd Akin when he famously said during an August television interview that it was almost medically impossible to get pregnant from rape because, \u201cif it\u2019s a legitimate rape, the female body has ways to try to shut that whole thing down.\u201d\nAnd from Wisconsin lawmaker Roger Rivard we have \u201cEasy Rape.\u201d Shortly after picking up vice presidential nominee Paul Ryan\u2019s endorsement, in August, Rivard shared this warning from his father with the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel: \u201cIf you go down that road, some girls, they rape so easy.\u201d\nRyan did withdraw his support of Rivard this month, which is somewhat ironic, given that Ryan himself tried to redefine rape in a 2011 bill cosponsored with Akin that created the term \u201cforcible rape\u201d \u2014 language that was later removed from the proposed legislation.\nSadly, these are not just a few isolated incidents by fringe candidates. I simply don\u2019t have the space, or the stomach, to detail all of the disgusting things being said about rape these days. It\u2019s gotten so bad that Stephen Colbert has a \u201cDays Without A GOP Rape Mention\u201d counter on \u201cThe Colbert Report\u201d ... and it gets reset far too often.\nThe GOP should be outraged. They should be tossing these caveman clowns out of their party posthaste. Instead, they are ignoring the issue, trying to minimize it or blaming the media. They say women don\u2019t care about these things. They\u2019re wrong. We do, and we vote in large numbers.\nSo before you step into the voting booth, ask yourself who you would rather have leading this country \u2014 President Barack Obama, a man who believes so strongly in equality that he recently endorsed marriage equality measures in several states, despite the fact that he is immersed in a very tough race and that stance may well cost him votes in some of the all-important swing states, or a man like Mitt Romney who continues to support candidates like Mourdock and doesn\u2019t seem to have any strong convictions that can\u2019t be swayed by what he thinks voters want to hear?",

        "raw_content": "The Geek Generation\nBy Loyd Case on March 17, 2009 at 1:12 pm\nMuch virtual ink has been spilled about how nerds and geeks are taking over the universe. I personally think that assessment is incorrect. The geeks and nerds are still shunned, or at least relegated to the sidelines. But what technophiles have wrought is a technocratic generation.\nMy daughter\u2019s boyfriend plays World of Warcraft. He runs a guild and regularly organizes raids. He\u2019s also tall, a good-looking guy, blond haired, and blue-eyed. Prior to getting into World of Warcraft, he played roller hockey. He is, most certainly, not a geek.\nAnother friend of my daughter\u2019s is also deep into WoW. He also just got a crew scholarship to Harvard. Now, when I was in college, I knew a few members of the crew team. They were about as hardcore as a bunch of athletes as you\u2019d find anywhere.\nThey could keep up with the Cross Country runners (in training, if not competition), bench press with the football players, and endure about as much pain as a Navy Seal trainee. Crew jocks are most certainly not geeks.\nIt\u2019s not all about gaming, either. I\u2019ve written about cab driver who build their own PCs, for example.\nEven the mass media is slowly, surely starting to get it. I watched a recent TV cop show in which the central mystery revolved around a massively multiplayer online game. I was pleasantly surprised to see they mostly got it right, although they minimized the kind of dev resources needed. (A handful of programmers to run a multi-million player MMO? Really?)\nIn fact, the most stereotyped person was the geeky guy who was all-to-heavily into the game. No, he wasn\u2019t the bad guy. He was just a geek. But one of the victims in the central mystery was another player\u2014who happened to be an attorney. In other words, one subtle, underlying message is that MMOs aren\u2019t just for geeks.

And while the political subtext of the story seems clear, Bailey insists that his fiction is less about making a statement and more about expressing his anxieties about the modern world.\n\u201cI don\u2019t think of myself as a political commentator or anything like that,\u201d Bailey says in Episode 338 of the Geek\u2019s Guide to the Galaxy podcast. \u201cRather than me coming up with a story to express a political point of view, these are just the ones that come out because of the cultural environment that I find myself in.\u201d\nApocalyptic visions haunt Bailey\u2019s fiction, and his bibliography is full of story titles like \u201cThe Rain at the End of the World\u201d and \u201cThe End of the End of Everything.\u201d That dark outlook prompted James Patrick Kelly to dub Bailey \u201cthe poet of the apocalypse.\u201d\n\u201cWe\u2019re attracted to these stories, and I certainly am attracted to these stories, whether they\u2019re Mad Max or written by J.G. Ballard,\u201d Bailey says. \u201cAnd I was trying to think about why that is, because I don\u2019t really want the world to end. I don\u2019t. So where does that attraction come from?\u201d\nHe says one reason we\u2019re drawn to apocalyptic stories is because they capture the way that personal tragedy can feel like the end of the world. \u201cFor somebody, their world is ending as we speak, right now,\u201d Bailey says. \u201cSomewhere some tragedy is enveloping someone, and their world is going to be completely remade as a consequence, and it can happen at any time.\u201d\nDespite his fondness for end-of-the-world stories, he\u2019s troubled at the way that so many of them make the death of billions seem like a fun adventure. It\u2019s an issue he tackles in his deflated, self-aware story \u201cThe End of the World as We Know It.\u201d\n\u201cWhat I was concerned about was the use of these tropes without any examination of the moral consequences of these kinds of tropes,\u201d he says. \u201cThis is a really horrible, terrible thing, and we tend to take it very lightly in fiction.\u201d\nListen to the complete interview with Dale Bailey in Episode 338 of Geek\u2019s Guide to the Galaxy (above). And check out some highlights from the discussion below.\nDale Bailey on getting published:\n\u201cStarlog had a column devoted to amateur fiction, and I sold a story\u2014\u2019sold\u2019 is the wrong word, since they didn\u2019t pay me\u2014I placed a story there when I was around 12 years old, shortly after Star Wars came out. I remember I got the letter saying that I\u2019d placed the story, and my sister, who is three or four years older than me, came in the door, and I\u2019m very excited and I showed her the letter, and she said, \u2018Are you getting paid for it?\u2019 And I said, \u2018No.\u2019 And she goes, \u2018Talk to me when you get paid.\u2019 That was my sister. \u2026 So I was very excited about this, but then I got a letter about a month or two after this saying they\u2019d canceled the column. So my first placement of a story was revoked, unfortunately.\u201d\nDale Bailey on collaboration:\n\u201cEllen Datlow had invited us, independently, to submit a story to this anthology called Lovecraft Unbound, and Nathan Ballingrud was visiting right before the deadline\u2014I mean, a day or two before the deadline, and neither one of us had started writing anything. We were sitting on the back deck drinking beer, and I said, \u2018Do you have anything?\u2019 And he goes, \u2018I\u2019ve got nothing.\u2019 And I said, \u2018I have nothing either.\u2019 Of course I\u2019d had nothing for several years at that point. We started talking, and we ended up going down to my office in the basement, and I started writing this story, \u2018The Crevasse,\u2019 with only a bare inkling of where it might be going. \u2026 We spent the night taking turns at the computer, rotating through the story, until we had finished a story by the next morning.\u201d\nDale Bailey on \u201cLightning Jack\u2019s Last Ride\u201d:\n\u201cI had to get rid of airplanes. Fighter jets would render the whole story impossible. In no way am I a hard science fiction writer, so that was a piece of window dressing. I don\u2019t know if air could actually get so polluted that planes couldn\u2019t fly\u2014I suppose it\u2019s possible. \u2026 I think you need just enough of that kind of window dressing to enable the reader to accept the world of the story while she\u2019s reading it. I think of the Samuel Taylor Coleridge quote about suspending your disbelief, and that\u2019s what I was trying to do with the airplanes and the satellites being unable to function, is just provide enough background\u2014or enough explanation\u2014that the reader could find a way to buy into the story, and I hope it worked.\u201d\nDale Bailey on In The Night Wood:\n\u201cThe fantasy conceit of the book is that there\u2019s this forest that surrounds the estate which is bigger on the inside than it is on the outside\u2014you go into it and you go into a different place, a different kind of reality, almost. That dimension of the book occurred to me on the drive back from the World Fantasy Convention in 2003\u2014it was in Washington, DC, I think\u2014and there was a long section of Interstate 85 where there was nothing, there were just trees as far as you could see on both sides of the road. It was like no one lived in that place for 70 miles or so. I was with my friend Jack Slay, with whom I collaborated on another novel, and I said to Jack, \u2018I feel like the trees go on forever.\u2019 And so it was that fantasy conceit, this huge forest, that then became a way to bring this story about a father who has lost his child into focus.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Goldschmidt \u2018couldn\u2019t care less\u2019 about lack of attention\nPHOENIX (AP) \u2014 No one in the majors, no position player anyway, is having a better season than Paul Goldschmidt.\nHe leads both leagues in hitting (.356) and on-base percentage (.474). He is at or near the top in virtually every other offensive category. And he might be the best defensive first baseman in the game, too.\nYet national attention, such as that showered on Washington Nationals slugger Bryce Harper, eludes the man his Arizona teammates call \u201cAmerica\u2019s First Baseman.\u201d\nOf course, Goldschmidt being Goldschmidt, he says \u201cI couldn\u2019t care less.\u201d\n\u201cMaybe that\u2019s not the right choice of words but it\u2019s just not something I concern myself with,\u201d Goldschmidt said in an interview with The Associated Press. He said he pays no attention whether he\u2019s going \u201cbad or good.\u201d\nGood is an understatement to describe Goldschmidt\u2019s season.\nHe entered Monday with 19 home runs, many in critical situations, was tied for second in the majors with 57 RBIs and ranked second in slugging percentage (.656)\nGoldschmidt was leading the majors in walks (55). A major league-high 16 were intentional.\nHe has 12 stolen bases.\nAnd he said he spends no inordinate amount of time studying pitchers.\n\u201cFor the majority of your life, up until the big leagues, you never had any video or scouting reports,\u201d Goldschmidt said, \u201cso I think it could be too easy to try to use that stuff and you could be in the box overthinking. So for me, there\u2019s some research you can do but for the most part just try to see the ball and hit the ball. I just try to see it out of his hand and look for something in the middle of the plate and put a big swing on it.\u201d\nThe same philosophy spreads to his statistics. He vows that he never looks at them, even though they are posted well within eyesight in the ballpark.\n\u201cI make a conscious decision to not look at any of those stats,\u201d Goldschmidt said. \u201cStats are what\u2019s happened in the past. They\u2019re not going to have any bearing on what\u2019s going to happen tonight.\u201d\nExcept the law of averages indicates good things often happen with Goldschmidt at the plate. His teammates know it and expect it.\nWhen Goldschmidt homered and made a pair of diving stops in a win over the Los Angeles Angels recently, pitcher Chase Anderson said simply, \u201cGoldy does Goldy things.\u201d\nHis home runs can be almost Giancarlo Stanton-like, but he is far from just a power hitter.\nGoldschmidt hits to all fields, obviously for a high average, and declines to participate in the Home Run Derby at the All-Star Game.\n\u201cI just try to hit,\u201d he said. \u201cIf I go up there trying to hit a homer or double, it\u2019s usually a strikeout or a groundball. I just try to hit a hard line drive and hopefully they don\u2019t catch it, and if you get under it and it goes out, all the better.\u201d\nA broken hand cut short his 2014 season. Healthy this year, he has been better than ever before. And before, he was terrific.\nGoldschmidt\u2019s lack of notoriety partly stems from where he plays. Phoenix is not a small market. It\u2019s the sixth-largest city in the country. But it\u2019s the desert southwest and no major media center.\nAnd his Diamondbacks, while vastly improved from the worst record in baseball a year ago and hovering around .500, have not known playoff success in years.\nThen, of course, there\u2019s his low-key personality. Hard to imagine Goldschmidt lingering to admire a home run or even thumping his chest in bravado.\nAlthough manager Chip Hale said Goldschmidt is not so quiet around the team, assuming a leadership role that he knows must go with his on-field success.\n\u201cHe\u2019s more vocal than I think people think with his teammates,\u201d the first-year manager said. \u201cIf something needs to be said, if somebody\u2019s not hustling, he\u2019ll say something. Sometimes I\u2019ve heard him say, \u2018Let\u2019s worry about hitting and not what the umpire is calling.\u2019 I think he\u2019s become even more and more that way since he\u2019s realized that\u2019s something he needs to do.\u201d\nGoldschmidt is in his fourth full major league season, rising quickly through the ranks after being an eighth-round draft pick.\nHard to imagine there were concerns about his lack of speed and defensive ability.\n\u201cI don\u2019t think the eighth round is so low,\u201d he joked. \u201cI know a lot of guys who were drafted lower.\u201d\nNot many with this kind of resume.\nGoldschmidt remains a big bargain, by baseball standards. He is in the third season of a five-year, $32 million contract with a $14.5 million club option for 2018.\nThat\u2019s certainly plenty for Goldschmidt and his budding family and, at age 27, there could still be a much bigger deal available sometime down the road.\nGoldschmidt\u2019s wife, Amy, is due with the couple\u2019s first child, a boy, in late summer.\nNow there\u2019s something maybe he can get excited about.\nHi!

        "raw_content": "Kim Hegvik, Mark Hendrickson and Nicole Burkhartsmeier are making an impact in trying to rid our community of drug offenses.\nby Nolan Schmidt May 29, 2018, 12:32 pm 592 Views\nLast year, there were 1,372 reported incidents involving drugs in Cass County. That made up nearly 20% of all drug-related reports in North Dakota. These three are mFargo DFargo Daking an impact in trying to rid our community of drug offenses.\nNicole Burkhartsmeier recalls a participant\u2019s parent approaching her. \u201cI run into a mom of a drug court participant who unfortunately did not finish our program from time to time,\u201d she said. \u201cAnd every time I see her, she is so grateful for the work that we are doing. Even to this day, she gets emotional because she says, \u2018If you guys would not have come along, we do not think he would still be with us.\u2019 That was always really nice to hear.\u201d\nMay is National Drug Court Month. Now, as you read that, you may be wondering what Drug Court even is. Believe it or not, it is exactly what its moniker infers, but you may not be aware that the Drug Court program has been in Fargo since May of 2000.\n\u201cWe are considered to be a specialty treatment court,\u201d said Burkhartsmeier, who is a probation officer in Fargo\u2019s Juvenile Drug Court. \u201cWe bring in adolescents 18 years or younger who are having addiction issues and ongoing delinquency issues and we try to give them some structure and supervision to help them get back on track.\u201d Burkhartsmeier says drug court is an \u201calternative to incarceration\u201d program. People who are unable to enter drug court are often incarcerated in the juvenile or adult system.\nNicole Burkhartsmeier\nMark Hendrickson, who is one of the probation officers in the Adult Drug Court, says they differ slightly from the juvenile side. \u201cA lot of the people we see are obviously those with addictions, but they are usually repeat offenders as well,\u201d he said. \u201cIt is the most intense program we have outside the walls of the prison. Three things happen when they go through our program: They are provided with a structure, they are held accountable and we press upon them that this needs to be a life-changing event.\u201d\nEvery case is different for both Hendrickson and Burkhartsmeier. The adult program sees a variety of different factors when they are working with a participant. These factors can include if they have anger issues, whether they have trouble holding a job or even if they have child support to pay. On the juvenile side, Burkhartsmeier looks at how the adolescent is acting and performing in school, as well as what their home environment is. It is these factors that aid the Drug Court program in attempting to eradicate these addictions.\nParticipants meet once a week in actual court in front of a judge. Outside of those meetings, the participants are in treatment as well as being supervised by their probation officer. As they progress throughout the program, the goal is to consistently scale back the amount of supervision or treatment. The one thing that stays the same is random drug or alcohol testing. Both Hendrickson and Burkhartsmeier say this is due to the program being built upon structure and accountability.\nKim Hegvik is a prosecutor for the State\u2019s Attorney\u2019s office and she functions as a \u201cgatekeeper\u201d in the adult drug court program. \u201cAll of the applications have to be processed through us,\u201d she said. \u201cThey have to be approved by us before they are brought into the adult program.\u201d In the juvenile system, there is an objective set of criteria that is needed before an adolescent is recommended to drug court.\nHegvik, Hendrickson and Burkhartsmeier say that the participants who do not seem fit for the program are the ones that end up graduating. \u201cWe\u2019ve actually found that participants who have this perception of being difficult are the participants graduating the program,\u201d Burkhartsmeier said. \u201cThose are our most successful participants because they just thrive in that structured environment.\u201d\nKim Hegvik\nAll three agree that drug court is an appropriate alternative to imprisoning individuals. \u201cThey are not going to get this type of treatment in a prison,\u201d Hendrickson said. \u201cThey may get some treatment in a locked facility, but then they get let out, then what happens?\u201d Hegvik added. \u201cWe can get them to change their friends, improve family life, get a job, contribute to society, do all of those things long term. If you put them in the sterile environment of a prison, they are going to come right back to that exact environment before they went to prison and nothing\u2019s changed,\u201d said Burkhartsmeier.\nThe rewards of the job are what keep Hegvik, Hendrickson and Burkhartsmeier hungry for more. \u201cThere is not one shining example, but, it can be the small things,\u201d Hegvik said. \u201cLike, the first time they buy toilet paper, some people have never done that before. Or when someone gets custody of their kids back, that\u2019s huge. There is not one specific reward just because of the small rewards that lead up to the ultimate reward for us, which is a participant graduating.\u201d\nHendrickson says his most rewarding times are those graduations. \u201cWe get these people when they are at rock bottom,\u201d he said. \u201cWe as a drug court team walk with them every day and by the time they graduate, to know they have a secure job, that they have their own place and that a family reunification process has begun because kids were taken away because of their addictions is amazing. To see their kids in that courtroom, smiling, while their mom or dad graduates, saying they love them and that they are proud of them, that\u2019s what gets us every time. There is nothing more rewarding than that situation. At the end of the day, without this program, that reunification process never happens.\u201d\nWhether or not the participant completes the program, there is progress made in one way or another. However, the lives that have been changed since the program\u2019s inception in 2000 is astronomical. It will continue to make an impact on those battling addictions and will hopefully help to eliminate substance abuse dependencies entirely.\n10 Quick Facts About Drug Court\nSince Juvenile Court\u2019s inception in 2000, the State of North Dakota has seen 677 juveniles come through the program.\nAs of 2017, Fargo leads the state with 88 juveniles completing the Juvenile Drug Court Program since May of 2000.\nThere are currently 5 Adult Drug Court Programs in the State, Fargo has 2, Minot, Bismarck, and Grand Forks being the other cities offering the program.\nThe Adult Drug Court Program in Fargo has successfully graduated 323 participants since its inception in 2003.\nIn 2017, 31% of participants were employed at entry into the program and 62% of participants were employed when exiting the Adult Drug Court Program in Fargo.\nThere are currently 52 participants in the Adult Drug Court Program in Fargo.\nIt costs approximately $40,000 to incarcerate one individual per year in the State Penitentiary System.\nIn 2017, 22 participants in the Adult Drug Court Program in Fargo paid $53,618 in fines, court fees and restitution.\nIn 2017, 46 of 52 participants in the Adult Drug Court Program in Fargo were not criminally arrested while in the program.\nTo place a juvenile participant in drug court, it costs the tax payer roughly $15-20 a day. Compare that to $200 a day to incarcerate the participant (depending on the facility).\nPrevious article Eight Rivers And Rollercoasters You Need To See\nNext article The Last Page: Awake!

        "raw_content": "Bank Robber Sentenced to More Than 13 Years in Prison for a Series of 2013 Robberies\nGREENBELT, MD\u2014U.S. District Judge Paul W. Grimm sentenced Dallas Eric Dunmore, age 48, of Washington, D.C., today to 163 months in prison, followed by three years of supervised release, for bank robbery.\nThe sentence was announced by United States Attorney for the District of Maryland Rod J. Rosenstein; Special Agent in Charge Stephen E. Vogt of the Federal Bureau of Investigation; Assistant Director in Charge Andrew G. McCabe of the Federal Bureau of Investigation\u2014Washington Field Office; Chief Mark A. Magaw of the Prince George\u2019s County Police Department; Chief J. Thomas Manger of the Montgomery County Police Department; and Maryland Attorney General Brian E. Frosh.\nAccording to their plea agreements, Dallas Dunmore, Derrick Hart and Teddy McCain robbed or attempted to rob banks in Maryland and Virginia. In each robbery Dallas Dunmore entered the bank and handed the teller a note demanding money. On one occasion, the note also stated that he had a gun, while on two other occasions Dunmore told the teller that he or another conspirator had a gun. McCain waited outside during each robbery. Hart also waited outside during the robberies, except on June 19, 2013, when Hart entered the bank with Dallas Dunmore and another conspirator.\nThe total proceeds from the five robberies in which Dunmore participated are $5,370; and the total proceeds from the six robberies in which Hart and McCain participated are $8,437.\nCo-conspirators Derrick Hart, age 43, of District Heights, Maryland, and Teddy McCain, age 55, of Germantown, Maryland, previously pleaded guilty to bank robbery and McCain was sentenced to six years in prison. Hart is scheduled to be sentenced on July 31, 2015, at 9:00 a.m.\nUnited States Attorney Rod J. Rosenstein praised the FBI; Prince George\u2019s and Montgomery County Police Departments; the Arlington, Fairfax, and Alexandria, Virginia Police Departments; and the Maryland Attorney General\u2019s Office, for their work in the investigation. Mr. Rosenstein thanked Assistant U.S. Attorney Nicolas Mitchell and Special Assistant United States Attorney Gerald A. A.

After their 1970 debut \u201cVery \u00b4heavy, Very \u00b4umble\u201d the band\u00b4s sales have amounted to more than 30 million albums and they still tour constantly to this day. It has not always been easy as they have lost vocalist David Byron (albeit departed prior to succumbing) to rock\u00b4n\u00b4roll lifestyle and last year long standing bass player Trevor Bolder to cancer, to mention but a few low moments.\nBut here we have a blistering new album that serves their heritage well. From \u201cSpeed of Sound\u201d to \u201cSay Goodbye\u201d there is only the minor glimpse of the slightly less engaging \u201cKiss the Rainbow\u201d, that has a fair share of DIRE STRAITS in it. The title track is a pacey future classic along with \u201cCan\u00b4t Take that Away\u201d. Nearly as great are \u201cJesse\u201d, \u201cLooking at You\u201d \u201cRock the Foundation\u201d, \u201cIs Anybody Gonna Help Me\u201d and \u201cSpeed of Sound\u201d. We get meaty riffs, an indulgence of Hammond sounding keyboards and solid rhythms from Russell Gilbrook and the man with the hard assignment to replace Trevor Bolder \u2013 Davey Rimmer. Bernie Shaw\u00b4s voice is perfect to the music and in shape. This is another album that deserves major attention from URIAH HEEP, I just hope you check this out.",

Formed in 1974 they continued up till 1999 before splitting and then reforming in 2007 with founding members Glenn Tilbrook and Chris Difford being the only original members left. Since reforming they've released two studio albums. The first was simply re-recorded versions of odler songs, but 2015's \"Cradle to the grave\" saw them release new material. Now they're following that with \"The knowledge\".\nFor many people, Squeeze will forever be associated with hits such as \"Cool for cats\", but this album doesn't contain anything likely to be a hit single. That's not a criticism, more a reflection on the sad state of the music industry where quality is overlooked in favour of the latest bland release from a \"star\". Quality is something though that you'll find everywhere you look in this album.\nThere's a very rich and varied feel to the album with a collection of excellent songs. They cover a range of subjects including the NHS (in the fantastic song \"A&E\"), erectile disfunction (\"Please be upstanding\") and young footballers being abused by predatory coaches (\"Final score\"). Topics such as the NHS or the abuse of young footballers are subjects that are very topical but which you're unlikely to find many bands writing about. It's been extremely well done here though - covering some topics and getting the tone just right is a real skill.\nTo try and describe what to expect from this album, I'd say that there is a lot in common with 10CC, and it's certainly likely that fans of 10CC will love this album. Not having listened to the \"Cradle to the grave\" album I wasn't sure what to expect from the current Squeeze lineup, but I'm really glad I gave this album a listen - it really is a fantastic album.\n\"The knowledge\" will be released on 13th October 2017\n1. Innocence in paradise\n3. A&E\n4. Every story\n5. A rough ride\n6. Departure lounge\n8. Please be upstanding\n11. Elmers end\n12. Two forks",

DIFTI pioneers professional-standard practical training across all key areas of film making, boasting a wealth of highly qualified mentors and a personal low tutor-to-student ratio.\nThe standard of education at DIFTI enables students to go out into the industry with the skills and experience necessary to find professional employment.\nDIFTI is producing a new generation of filmmakers who meet the industry demand for individuals who are multi-skilled, collaborative and innovative. Our graduates have successfully entered the film and television industry with an unparalleled breadth of experience and specialized knowledge, proving they have a unique advantage over others who have chosen to focus their learning in only one area. Our commitment to teaching a wider range of practical skill includes working on both film and digital mediums, briefs that encourage students to find their creative voices and up-to-date training that enhances their chances of making a living and better still, of forging a successful career in this competitive field.\nSo why choose a relatively new film school that is taking on the giants of the AFRICA film school world? The answer is simple. The DIFTI punches above its weight and expects everyone who comes on the course to do the same.. It is about passion for film. It is about people. Film-making is one of the most team-intensive industries around. If you can't communicate, co-operate and lead then you are going to struggle in anything. You're certainly going to struggle in film-making where you need everyone around you.\nAs technology develops so do our courses however the language and grammar of film making will always remain the same. We incorporate digital elements in all of our training but remain geared around working with professional 16mm film to ensure experience gained by our students is as close to the professional film making world as possible. Working primarily on 16mm film gives students a rare discipline and a higher quality of training that prepares them to work effectively and creatively within other mediums including digital technology.\nRealistically, a paper qualification isn\u2019t enough to get a foot on the ladder in the creative industries. Contacts and practical, tailored career advice is key and so, that\u2019s what we provide. We are unique in being able to offer all of our students a complimentary membership to DIFTI FILM MAKERS CLUB, our emerging filmmakers' club with access to networking events and an exclusive jobs list. The activities of the club aim to equip members with a range of knowledge, contacts, production support and discounted equipment and facilities hire, to help them make independent films as well as find work or work placements during our courses and long after they leave us.\nDespite market forces, we continue to maintain our founding principle of affordable film training for all that is of a high standard and relevant to today\u2019s industry. We also support cultural and social diversity with 50% of our intake comprising of international students from all over the world with diverse social backgrounds. As a registered non-profit trust, we offer a higher level of accountability. All course fees go into the courses and basic running expenses of the school, eliminating hidden costs. All equipment, facilities and materials are provided for all workshops, exercises and short films and are included in the tuition fees.\nDIFTI is no quick-fix academy. We are intimate film school, highly passionate about film and our students. As such, we continue to maintain a policy of small intakes on all courses, preserving a productive tutor to student ratio that allows for applied group sessions and one-to-one mentoring nurturing individual talent. Staff and tutors take pride in the uniquely intimate, intensive and creative energy within the school, facilitating a production house for innovation, professional development and excellence.\nDisciples Film and Television Institute - a film school that gets results!\nIt's undoubtedly a slick operation, filled with an infectious energy. It is almost as if, while other film schools churn out graduating class after graduating class with bored ease this youthful establishment is still excited to be home to movie makers.\nFOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT US :\nTELEPHONE: 234 8035258156, 08028306534\ndiftiacademy@gmail.com\nAACOV.jpg",

        "raw_content": "3 REASONS TO LEARN VIDEO PRODUCTION AT A FILM SCHOOL\nNov 8, 2014 | Film & Video Industry |\nIf you\u2019d like to learn video production, know that it takes passion and drive. You need to learn about all of the different aspects of producing videos for a range of different formats. When you learn video production, more opportunities come to you within the film career industries. Find out how learning video production at a film school can benefit you down the road!\n3 BENEFITS OF LEARNING VIDEO PRODUCTION AT FILM SCHOOL\nOf course, learning video production on your own is possible. Many have done it in the past. But, how do you become a film producer everyone wants to hire? Learning video production at a top film school offers many benefits over the alternative. It takes time, patience, skills and education, and it\u2019s all worth it.\n1. YOU\u2019LL LAND A JOB YOU LOVE\nYou often hear that education is everything. Can the same be said for video production colleges? The answer is yes. If you learn video production from an accredited school, you will find that people will be clawing at your door to get you to work for them if you\u2019re good.\nThe best part about it is that you will get the hands-on experience to back up your education. Many people tend to hire someone based on work history. But, when they find out you went to school and got your education, it\u2019s a whole new ball game.\n2. YOU\u2019LL MEET LIKE-MINDED PEOPLE\nWhen you\u2019re learning video production at a film school, you get the opportunity to meet many different people. These people are interested in film careers, just like you. This opportunity will give you a chance to make connections before you even get into the field. If you already have connections lined up after you graduate, you will have a head start most people don\u2019t get.\n3. YOU\u2019LL GAIN EXTENSIVE FILM INDUSTRY KNOWLEDGE\nThis part is the most important benefit of going to film school. If you do, you will jump start your film industry career. How? Well, when you enter the industry, you will already have a huge chunk of knowledge that other people just don\u2019t have. When push comes to shove, the person with the education and hands-on experience tends to get hired first, regardless of past job titles.\nLEARN VIDEO PRODUCTION FROM AN ACCREDITED SCHOOL\nHaving your foot in the door will help land you better jobs throughout your career. If you are looking for a way to start a new video production and video editing career, getting a quality education is the first step. There are people out there who often try to just jump into the field with no previous knowledge, and that only makes getting and understanding a video production job harder than it has to be. So, why wouldn\u2019t you get the education you need?\nF.I.R.S.T. Institute helps students learn video production with the help of quality instructors and a tailored curriculum.

The History Channel can be found on Spectrum (channel 62), CC Communications (22, 322 HD) and Direct TV (269).\nEach episode features five drivers in their personal customized trucks and Jeeps facing each other in three challenges that test each vehicle's speed, strength and handling.\n\"Between each challenge competitors demonstrate their craftsmanship by re-engineering their trucks for the next round,\" according to the show's website. \"The last two finalists standing then take on a three-mile, truck killing obstacle course known as 'The Green Hell,' which challenges trucks and drivers to fly off jumps, climb a mountain of crushed cars, and tear through a snake-infested swamp. Five trucks will enter to compete, but only one can win and take home the prize money and the title of 'Truck Night Champion.'\"\nPishion will be driving his 1977 Plymouth Trail Buster in the competition. Last summer, Pishion flew to Atlanta where he competed against four other drivers. The program also ships the contestants' vehicles to Georgia.\n\"I used my mud bog truck,\" Pishion said. \"I compete in obstacles to test the truck's strength and ability to power.\"\nWorking on his Plymouth has been a labor of love for Pishion, who grew up in Fallon and was a member of Churchill County High School's Class of 1992.\nPishion said he has worked and tinkered with his truck for 15 years, laughingly referring to time with his Plymouth as being with his mistress. It was his relationship with his truck and mud bogging that led him to contact \"Truck Night In America.\"\nPishion said he sent a letter to the program in April, and a few days later, he received a call.\n\"I Skyped an interview with some of the producers,\" Pishion recalled.\nHe said his interview was then edited, and his application promoted.\n\"Out of the blue, I got a call asking me if I wanted to do this,\" he said.\nAt the end of August, Pishion spent three-and-a-half days competing in the heat and humidity of Georgia.\nNaturally, Pishion wouldn't reveal the outcome of his competition against the four other drivers. Nevertheless, Pishion said being on the program was an experience he will never forget.\n\"This was an opportunity of a lifetime, and I would like others to know that anything is possible when you follow your dreams,\" he said.",

        "raw_content": "People, especially those who go above and beyond the expected, make the UF Health Proton Therapy Institute a special place. In this month\u2019s newsletter, you will read about exceptional actions by remarkable individuals who put others before themselves and make the world a better place.\nOn behalf of all of us here at the institute, best wishes to you and your loved ones for a happy holiday season.\n2015 Excellence Award Honoree: Jeff Rexford\nThe first ever UF Health Proton Therapy Institute Award for Excellence was presented to Jeff Rexford, IBA Site Manager, during a ceremony last month. IBA is the manufacturer of the proton therapy system and Jeff leads its staff of on-site engineers who operate and maintain the system. Beginning in 2006 when Jeff was named site manager, and throughout his tenure, he has demonstrated a commitment to excellence that goes above and beyond the call of duty.\nJeff is the most knowledgeable in-house expert on what is widely considered within the health care industry the most complex piece of medical equipment in use today. He is the reason that the UF Health Proton Therapy Institute system has the best performance of all IBA systems. When issues arise, Jeff and his team are unstoppable in resolving the issue, often developing creative solutions that are unconventional, but effective. The system performance and reliability makes it possible for the facility to treat, on average, 100 patients each weekday, from 6:30 a.m. \u2013 11 p.m.\n\u201cI am privileged and honored to know him as a friend and I truly admire his many contributions to UFHPTI\u2019s past and future success,\u201d said Stuart Klein, UF Health Proton Therapy Institute Executive Director, in remarks made during the award ceremony.\nThe award was established to show appreciation for an individual\u2019s exemplary service and to inspire others within the proton family to the same level of excellence. The honoree is someone who has made a significant contribution to the culture of excellence and patient care at UF Health Proton Therapy Institute. Anyone within the proton family, for example, employees, vendors, volunteers, or philanthropists, is eligible for consideration for the award. The individual who receives the award demonstrates the hallmarks of excellence: expertise, consistency, innovation, leadership and generosity.\nZane Beadles is a Walter Payton Man of the Year Finalist\nYou can help our friend, Jacksonville Jaguars player Zane Beadles, win the Walter Payton Man of the Year award. All you have to do is use the hashtag #BeadlesWPMOYChallenge in your social media posts now through December 31. The NFL player with the most hashtag mentions will win a donation to fund his charitable activities.\nZane is a generous philanthropist who has taken a special interest in helping the children being treated at UF Health Proton Therapy Institute and their families. He has a charitable organization, the Zane Beadles Parade Foundation, that focuses on supporting the journey of young people going through life-changing medical experiences.\nOver the past few years he has hosted multiple family fun night activities including the most recent holiday party on December 10. Children and parents were treated to \u201cbreakfast for dinner\u201d with pancakes, bacon and other delicious goodies on the menu. Then everyone was invited to decorate a gingerbread house using icing, candy and their imaginations. Zane along with his teammate AJ Caan and members of the Jaguars cheerleading squad The Roar visited with the children, signed autographs and posed for photos.\nFor 11-year-old Max Adams, a patient from the United Kingdom and Jaguars fan, it was a thrill to meet the players. He started following the Jaguars when they played in London and attended the game there this season. He has also watched a few games at Everbank Field while he\u2019s here on treatment.\nMax said that the holiday party was a great way for all the pediatric families, especially those far from home, to get together for fun and fellowship.\nPatient Spotlight: Wendy Anthony\n\u201cI like to tell my story,\u201d said 12-year-old Wendy Anthony as she described how she made friends with other cancer patients at the UF Health Proton Therapy Institute. \u201cI introduce myself and ask if they would like to go to the art table,\u201d she explained. She got to know the other patients by sharing her story with them about being treated for a rare brain tumor called craniopharyngioma, \u201cI tell them I had surgery. Surgery. Treatment.\u201d And she asked them about their cancer story.\nBecause of her positive and friendly attitude, she touched the hearts and minds of other cancer patients on treatment and befriended many of them -- men, women and children. She decided to congratulate her friends when they \u201cgraduated\u201d from treatment and made a personalized poster complete with drawings, pictures and words of encouragement. \u201cWe\u2019d like to do it for everyone,\u201d said her father David Anthony. \u201cWith so many graduates, it\u2019s hard to do them all. We are making them for people who have touched our lives while we\u2019ve been here.\u201d\nIt started with a warm and welcoming greeting by a prostate cancer patient they met at the gym at Third and Main, the nearby apartment complex that houses many of the proton therapy patients. \u201cHe was the first person who greeted us, who told us what a great place we were in and made us feel comfortable,\u201d said David. As they met more patients, the circle of friends grew. \u201cWe met a lot of inspiring people, but Wendy\u2019s been the biggest inspiration to me,\u201d said David. He said that all the prostate guys were super generous and kind to Wendy. She helped them deal with their cancer diagnosis by seeing how bravely she handled hers.\n\u201cIt\u2019s just a great atmosphere that allows the best of people to come out,\u201d said David describing the proton therapy institute. \u201cI attribute that to UFHPTI. All the staff members are so positive it\u2019s infectious.\u201d\nWendy offered some advice for people to make their proton treatments go better, \u201cI just go with the flow and do what the doctors say you have to do.\u201d She said by concentrating on that, you don\u2019t have to worry.\nUF Health Proton Therapy Institute receives International Award\nJAXUSA Partnership, the economic development arm of the JAX Chamber, during its quarterly luncheon on December 16 presented a 2015 International Award to UF Health Proton Therapy Institute.\nEach year since 2007 JAXUSA honors companies and individuals that contribute to Northeast Florida\u2019s international growth. \u201cAs international barriers continue to be broken it is important to position Northeast Florida as a prime place to expand or relocate international business,\u201d said Jerry Mallot, JAXUSA President. \u201cThese awards help us recognize those companies and individuals who have already seen why this region is an outstanding location for their business operations.\u201d\nA selection committee comprised of the JAXUSA President, International Senior Director, JAXPORT\u2019s Chief Commercial Officer and a representative from the international and/or logistics community review eligible nominees and determine the award winners. Past winners include Novabone (2007), COACH (2011), Stellar (2007 & 2014) and Jaguars President Mark Lamping (2013). The selection of UF Health Proton Therapy Institute marks the first time a health care provider has received the International Award.\n\u201cWe are honored to receive this recognition,\u201d said Stuart Klein, UF Health Proton Therapy Institute Executive Director. \u201cProton therapy is often the only treatment option for many kinds of tumors, especially those located in or near critical organs like the brain, heart or lungs. Our ability to provide treatment to patients from around the globe is possible thanks to our expert professional medical team and to our community partners.\u201d\nSince opening in 2006, the UF Health Proton Therapy Institute has treated more than 6,000 cancer patients, who are from the local community, 49 states and 30 countries. The Institute has agreements in place with Norway, Quebec and the United Kingdom to treat cancer patients who need proton therapy. Additional international patient growth is expected from China following a proton therapy symposium in June 2015 hosted jointly with the leading radiation oncology association in China. Over the last five years, the pediatric proton program has grown to the largest in the world with more than 25 children on treatment each day. Since opening, the facility has treated more than 1,000 children.\nUF Health Proton Therapy Institute is a 501 (c) 3 not-for-profit, academic health facility. The facility is active in the economic development and medical tourism efforts in the City of Jacksonville. It hosts educational tours of the facility for small groups including medical professionals, business groups, government officials, international visitors and others. Facility tours are open to patients, caregivers and the general public twice weekly. It supports nonprofits such as the Ronald McDonald House, the American Cancer Society, Wolfson Children's Hospital, the American Lung Association, the Free to Breathe Association, and the 26.2 with Donna. Employees and patients often participate in community runs and events such as the Riverside Arts 5K, the Gate River Run, the Corporate Run, and more.\nThis year UF Health Proton Therapy Institute was named one of four Florida Cancer Centers of Excellence \u2013 the first year of the state-designated award \u2013 and it earned the American College of Radiology accreditation seal \u2013 one of three proton therapy facilities in the country with this distinction.\nSanta Claus makes a special delivery\nJoy was in the air on December 17 at UF Health Proton Therapy Institute as Santa Claus made a surprise visit. He delivered a bundle of toys to 70 children \u2013 cancer patients and their siblings. Many have temporarily relocated to Jacksonville for the three-month treatment, some from as far away as the United Kingdom. Proton therapy staff dressed as elves helped distribute the gifts. Joe McGee, prostate cancer survivor and proton alum from the Atlanta area, made Santa come to life.",

        "raw_content": "You are here: Home / Blog / Features / Memories from the Building Committee Chairperson\nMemories from the Building Committee Chairperson\nApril 4, 2005 / Features /by FMCIC\nDuring a 1980 summer afternoon drive, Barrie Free Methodist Church (BFMC) members Larry and Ruth Muxworthy stopped at a piece of farmland at 290 Cundles Rd. E. in Barrie, and prayed. Their request to God was to protect this land if this is where He wanted the next Free Methodist Church in Barrie to be built.\nThe process began as the BFMC congregation grew again to fill the 200 Bayfield St. location. We had done it before, had talked of building or relocating, but the process just did not happen and the church would shrink in size. So the Long-Range Planning Committee (LRP) started to investigate the options. Timothy Christian School was soon to be on the market, so pursuit was made to purchase. Talks and negotiations ensued for close to a year, but in the end, this was not the location we were to be.\nTwo morning services had begun in September 1999, and since we were already in the dilemma of needing larger facilities, society voted unanimously to list the properties at the corner of Bayfield and Dalton Streets with a realtor and to relocate. This was faith, as we had no options in sight at this time. On July 13, 2000, an offer was accepted on three of the four parcels owned by the church at the Bayfield location.\nLRP had already begun the search for property or an existing building. The property at 290 Cundles Rd. E. was considered, but the committee found it was too expensive. The realtor was ferreting out properties or buildings and many options were pursued. One option had been pursued to the point of making a conditional offer but was stopped in the nick of time to keep the church from being committed to a deal that would soon become a nightmare. Another property was situated in the neighbouring township and was expected to be expropriated within the coming years. A large sewer system would need to be installed, a well drilled and a fire pond installed, only to be removed when expropriation took place. This option was too expensive for the short-term need of these amenities.\nA visit was made to a Regional and Urban Development Planner who informed the committee of properties that would suit our needs and where zoning could be changed. Before we knew it, the committee was again pursuing 290 Cundles Rd. E. This property had a draft plan attached to it and a road ran through the property. The price was high considering that whomever purchased the property would also be required to install sewer, water and gas lines as well as complete the street that ran through the property. LRP committee was not a land developer and felt the need to start looking for other properties again.\nSince prayer was so vital to the life of this committee, God was heard and the committee was instructed to keep going. A conditional offer, which included approval of the church society, was presented and accepted by the owner, but the church society had not yet voted. The Regional and Urban Development Planner set up meetings for the LRP to meet land developers who might be interested in purchasing the townhouse lots and installing the road and utilities. Only one developer showed up. After discussion with this developer, no agreement was made and both parties left the meeting expecting to never see each other again. Three days later the developer called to say he could not get the BFMC project off his mind. An initial verbal deal was made. The society declined the offer made to the existing owner of the land; the developer renegotiated and purchased the property plus two additional adjacent properties, reworked the draft plan and pursued rezoning as necessary. Then the developer sold to BFMC the required property. A better plan was worked and the land was purchased for a much lower price. As the deal closes, the church soon realizes that the lawyer has waived his fees for the purchase of 290 Cundles Rd. E. Again, God had prepared and placed the right people in our situation.\nAs the architect worked on the drawings for the building, a site plan was also in progress. City of Barrie informed the architect of the access entrances it is allowing the church. The decision was not satisfactory, so a visit is made to city hall where Pastor Cliff and LRP are informed that the Mayor had already intervened, and the needed entrances are approved.\nThe City of Barrie begins the study required to widen Cundles Rd. It is reported that an estimated 30,000 cars would pass by the church site each day. Our building was going to be well noticed by the people of Barrie .\nOur first request for mortgage funds to build all of phase 1 was denied in April 2003. The Building Committee worked with our builder to resize the project to a plan that included construction of the outer shell of the building and completing only a portion of the interior. On June 20, 2003, approval was received for a construction loan to fit this new approach.\nThe City of Barrie required a Letter of Credit before finalizing the Site Plan Agreement and issuing the Building Permit. This money would be held in our own bank account, by the bank, until all site work was completed to the city requirements. This amount was $327,225. The quotes received from subtrades to complete this work were only $236,625, a difference of $90,600. As finances became tight, invoices needed to be paid and the next draw had not been received, a request was made to the mayor for the $90,600 to be released. Again we found that the same Mayor helping us by questioning the city departments as to why they would hold the additional funds if the completion of the site work could be done at a lesser cost by the church. Funds were immediately released and our cash-flow problem was resolved. As the building construction progressed, miracles continued to happen as cheques unexpectedly arrived, and the right people miraculously answered phone calls made especially prior to holiday time.\nHurricane Isabel was geared to blow in on September 19th, 2003. The weather reports and news broadcasts stated that it would be similar to Hurricane Hazel that affected our area in 1954. The builder secured the concrete walls, which were only partially complete and braced the stud walls. We sent the concern to the prayer chain for most of the week prior to the storm. The hurricane was downgraded considerably and blew easterly thus the winds and storm were no more than a thunderstorm.\nAs our building was taking shape, one of the subtrade companies decided to sign back the payment for their services. Total donation to the church building project from this one company was $36,000.\nMarch 10, 2004 at 8:00 a.m., a clear sky, a crisp cold morning, and the cross was lifted and installed on the front of the building. What better symbol to let Barrie know we were a church, a beacon to the city. Over the months as congregation members were in conversation with the people of Barrie , it became obvious that the building was being watched while under construction. Many were impressed with the size and style of the building.\nApproval came on June 1, 2004 to complete the next portion of Phase 1, which included the halls, servery (kitchen) and winterizing the unfinished areas. So here we were again, starting the process all over; some interior stud walls to be built, more electrical, more plumbing, more insulating, etc. At the end of August, the official board then gave the building team approval to complete the classroom areas. This decision would mean the completion of Phase One. To date, only a few items need to be completed: the air-lock wall inside the north narthex, wheelchair lift to the stage and in-ground sprinkler system, items we can live without for the present.\nAs decisions were being made about materials to be used in construction, the decision was always for low-maintenance and energy efficiency. Thus we have a building that will serve us well as we worship, as we minister, and as we grow.\nSome interesting facts about our building:\n\u25ba September 6th, 2003 was the first \u2018BIG\u2019 workbee dubbed the Framing Frenzy. 426 volunteer hours were clocked that day with 73 volunteers excluding food servers\n\u25ba March 7, 2004 we held our first church service in the new building\n\u25ba Grand Opening service was April 4, 2004 with 616 in attendance\n\u25ba Volunteer hours of work on the building totaled 5648.5 hours\n\u25ba 206 volunteers worked on site\n\u25ba Size of phase One is approximately \u00bd acre or 20,483 square feet.\nThe building construction was finished the end of October 2004. Until phase two begins, the building team is \u2018taking a breather\u2019 and the BFMC congregation is enjoying the building.\nBy Heather Sutton, Barrie FMC\nFirst FMC, Moose Jaw \u2013 105 YEARS OLD!

        "raw_content": "Foxtrot: While most people think that Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers created the Foxtrot, it was really a vaudeville performer named Harry Fox who introduced this fun, theatrical dance to the world. Foxtrot dancers travel around the perimeter of the room in a counterclockwise direction in a basic rhythm of slow-slow-quick-quick. Still a classic dance for wedding receptions, the Foxtrot is a true American favorite.\nViennese Waltz: Made popular in the 1880s by the invigorating music of Johann Strauss, the Viennese Waltz is a very fast version of the waltz at a tempo of about 180 beats a minute. This dance is characterized by its fast pace and continuous circling. A beautiful dance to watch and perform, the Viennese Waltz is a glamorous, uplifting, whirling experience for everyone to enjoy.\nWaltz: The Waltz, with its 3/4 rhythms and strong accent on the first beat, was born in the suburbs of Vienna. When the dance was first introduced in the early 19th century, people were shocked since it was the first ballroom dance where the man put his hand on a woman's waist! The Waltz gained in popularity and quickly became one of the most popular of all dances. This easy and flowing dance is still commonly seen at weddings and other social events.\nPolka: Originating from Bohemia in the 1800s, the Polka has an unforgettable rhythm \u2014 da-da-dum, da-da-dum. The name is Czech for \"half-step,\" much used in the dance. The Polka is danced in pairs either face-to-face or standing side-by-side. Polka music has a 2/4 beat and is notable for its happy sound. The Polka has consistently remained a very popular dance worldwide.\nEast Coast Swing: Back in the good old days of Elvis Presley and Chuck Berry, the East Coast Swing originated as a simplified 6-count triple step dance. The East Coast Swing dance pattern moves smoothly either forward/back or side to side while circling freely around the floor. The basic step is triple step, triple step, rock step. Danced to a wide variety of music, you can \"swing\" to almost anything!\nThe Hustle: The 1970s was the time to do the Hustle! Predated by the line dance with the same name, the Hustle exploded onto the scene after John Travolta danced his way to stardom in the famous movie, Saturday Night Fever. The Hustle is a fast moving, energetic dance characterized by its many turns. The lady spins almost constantly while her partner draws her close and sends her away. Although disco has come and gone, the hustle is here to stay!\nWest Coast Swing: The official state dance of California, the West Coast Swing originated from the Savoy Style Lindy dance. Brought to Hollywood by Dean Collins, a famous movie dancer and choreographer, this dance soon became popular in California nightclubs during the 1930s and 1940s. The West Coast Swing is known for its \"dancing in a slot\" appearance where the man dances in place while the woman travels back and forth.\nThe Lindy Hop: It all started at the Savoy ... or so the story goes. While \"Shorty George\" Snowden, a dance enthusiast, watched some couples dancing at New York City's famous Savoy Ballroom in the late 1920s, someone asked him what dance they were doing. George glanced down at a newspaper opened up to an article about Charles Lindbergh's flight across the ocean, titled \"Lindy Hops the Atlantic,\" and quickly answered: \"The Lindy Hop.\" A dance was born! The Lindy Hop, always fun to dance, is wild, spontaneous, jumpy, and jazzy!\nThe Two Step: The country music dance called the \"Texas Two-Step\" is a modified Foxtrot \u2014 some call it a Foxtrot with a swagger! It started as a simple barn dance and is notable for two quick steps and two slow steps. Starting with the popularity of movies like Urban Cowboy, country-western partner dancing came back in style in the late 1980s. Gliding your feet across the floor, the two-step is always fun dance to learn and enjoy with your partner!",

        "raw_content": "Home / Chris Connor / The Complete Atlantic Singles 1956-1960 (Digipack)\nAtlantic 45-1138\nChris Connor (vcl), Ray Ellis, Herbie Mann, Richard Wess, Stan Applebaum (dir, arr)\n\u00b7 24 Single Tracks\n\u00b7 Comprehensive Liner Notes\n\u00b7 High Fidelity Recordings\nChris Connor (1927-2009) developed her jazz style while singing with Stan Kenton in 1953. The way she put it, \u201cSinging with Kenton was the most exciting thing that happened to me. And, believe me, it trained my ear.\u201d After leaving Kenton, she began building her reputation as a single working intimate, jazz-clubs on the Eastern circuit. But she had never thought herself a jazz singer and made this clear when she first began singing for Bethlehem later that year: \u201cI don\u2019t know why I began singing jazz, instead of commercial things. But I always sang off the melody when I was a kid, so I guess that\u2019s it. I don\u2019t really want to stick to only one kind of singing. The only reason I\u2019m in this business is because I like to sing. I\u2019m not happy doing anything else.\u201d\nHer fleeting doubts gradually disappeared as she became more secure in her own rhythmic conception, and after signing for Atlantic in 1956, she became one of the label\u2019s best sellers, selling 500,000 LPs during her five-year tenure, and thousands of jazz and pop singles; all of the latter are included here. Her near-vibratoless singing style and distinctive charm, as warm on ballads as it is coolly relaxed on uptempos, and her innate jazz phrasing \u2014emerging at unguarded moments\u2014 triumph over more commercial approach of some of the tunes.\nGo 'Way from My Window (John Jacob Niles) 02:50\nPast the Age of Innocence (Gimbel-Sawens) 02:36\nMy Heart Is so Full of You (Loesser) 02:17\nI Miss You So (Robin-Henderson-Scott) 02:22\nTime out for Tears (Schiff-Berman) 02:40\nTrust in Me (Ager-Schwartz-Wever) 02:14\nMixed Emotions (Louchheim) 02:48\nI Love You, Yes I Do (Wood-Seiler-Marcus-Glover-Nix) 02:36\nUnder Paris Skies (Gannon-Giraud-Drejac) 02:39\nMoon Ride (Guryan) 02:45\nCircus (Alter-Russell) 02:00\nFlying Home (Goodman-Hampton-Leiber-Stoller) 02:34\nHallelujah, I Love Him So (Charles) 02:25\nI Won't Cry Anymore (Frisch-Wise) 02:23\nSe\u00f1or Blues (Silver) 02:55\nMisty (Burke-Garner) 02:38\nInvitation (Webster-Kaper) 02:51\nI Sold My Heart to the Junkman (Ren\u00e9-Ren\u00e9) 02:05\nHeard a Bluebird (Uncredited) 02:18\nFortune Cookies (Leiber-Stoller) 02:14\nThat's My Desire (Loveday-Kresa) 01:59\nI Only Want Some (Leiber-Stoller) 02:47\n'S Wonderful (Gershwin) 02:31\nLove Walked In (Gershwin) 02:55\n01.

        "raw_content": "Home/Sports Betting Picks/Stanley Cup Finals Rematch: Washington Capitals vs. Vegas Golden Knights\nStanley Cup Finals Rematch: Washington Capitals vs. Vegas Golden Knights\nThe Washington Capitals will host the Vegas Golden Knights for an NHL game on Wednesday night. This game will be a rematch of last season\u2019s Stanley Cup Final that was won by the Washington Capitals in five games. The Golden Knights will look to get some revenge against the Capitals in this contest.\nThe Washington Capitals got off to a terrific start this season, blowing out the Boston Bruins by a score of 7-0 in the season opener. Washington suffered a tough, 7-6 overtime loss to the Pittsburgh Penguins in game two of the season. The Golden Knights are off to a rough start this season, going just 1-2 in their first three games. The Washington Capitals are -175 against the Knights in this game.\nCapitals Scoring Goals In Bunches\nThe Washington Capitals have been the highest scoring team in the NHL so far this season, after finishing near the top last season as well. Washington is averaging 6.5 goals per game this season, but it has only led to one victory. Right winger T.J. Oshie leads the team with five points this season, including a trio of goals through the first two games of the season. The Capitals have a deep and talented roster.\nCapitals goaltender Braden Holtby has been inconsistent to start the 2018 season. Holtby posted a shutout in the season opener, but then gave up a whopping seven goals in the team\u2019s second game. Holtby was a big reason that the Capitals were Stanley Cup Champions a season ago, and he should return to top form soon. The Washington penalty kill needs to perform better in this game as well.\nVegas Struggling To Score\nThe Vegas Golden Knights had a deep lineup last season, but their offense has gotten off to a slow start in 2018. The Golden Knights have recorded just two goals in each game this season, and only have two points on the season. Center Jonathan Marchessault has been the offensive start for Vegas this season, tallying four points including a pair of goals.\nGoaltender Marc-Andre Fleury has had a rough start to the 2018 season, and the Golden Knights need him to be better. Fleury has already given up ten goals through three games this season, and the veteran got taken out midway through the Knights season opener. Fleury will need to find his game again as he is facing one of the best offense in the NHL in this contest.\nCapitals Beat Knights Again\nThe Capitals look to be strong contenders to repeat as Stanley Cup Champions this season. The Capitals have a deep roster and they have been scoring goals at a record pace. The Golden Knights have gotten off to a slow start this season, and their task won\u2019t get any easier in this game, especially on the road. Look for the Capitals to stay hot, and pick up their second win of the season in this game. Bet the Washington Capitals -175 over the Vegas Golden Knights.",

        "raw_content": "Skybound CEO Wants The Walking Dead Finale To Be Entirely Developed By Former Telltale Staff\nWith Telltale having closed and laid off its staff, The Walking Dead's incomplete final season hangs over a lot of the news for fans of the series. While Skybound confirmed they would be finishing the story out, the question of how exactly they would bring in the terminated Telltale staff to fix it was still important, and reminds people of the human cost behind their favorite games.\nIt did not take long for this subject to come up when Skybound CEO Ian Howe held an Ask Me Anything session on Reddit yesterday. While he did not go into specific detail about how he plans to bring in Telltale developers to finish the game, he was clear about how much of the team would be comprised of former Telltale employees.\n\"The plan is for it to be staffed 100% by former Telltale staff,\" he answered. \"The only time we'd look elsewhere is if we can't fill a particular role from former TT people.\"\nHowe also added that he has been in contact with \"most, if not all\" of The Walking Dead team, but this is not confirmation that all of them are willing or able to return. Presumably, some degree of the team have plans that are incompatible with Skybound's intentions to continue development.\nThere is no timeframe for the remainder of The Walking Dead: The Final Season, though the first two episodes are still for sale.\n[Source: Gamasutra]\nWhile the idea of going back and finishing a project I was working on sounds good, hopefully those who were laid off find a more permanent and agreeable solution than/after this. This is one of those situations where no one is really in the wrong right now, but things could definitely be way better.",

        "raw_content": "Thoughts on writing a very fast first draft\nGenerally positive. Between the 20th of October and the 10th of January I wrote 122,475 words, averaging roughly 1750 words a day, not counting thirteen days when I was otherwise restructuring what I'd already written or busy getting on with life-stuff. Some days I wrote more, several others I wrote less. It helped that I was working from a very detailed 15,000 word outline.\nThe advantage is it's a lot easier to remember what was going on in your head when you wrote a particular scene two weeks before as opposed to, say, two or more months before. What you end up with might be rough as hell, but it at least has the advantage of being fundamentally more cohesive than a first draft that takes six months to write. A quickly written draft allows you to be much more 'in the moment' of the story.\nEven so, I stopped short of writing the penultimate scene in the first draft, since by the time I got there I knew I wanted to make very fundamental changes to certain major characters, and those changes would very likely be reflected in that final, as yet unwritten, scene. So I've started on the second draft. Since I'm using Scrivener, I can change the text colour according to which draft I'm writing; white (on black) for the first draft, green on black for the second. I can scan through the text I've reworked so far and see it's about 90% green and 10% white. By the time I'm on the third (yellow) draft, I'll be interested to see how much, if any, white text is left.\nRude bits",

Factory who so generously provided these DVD\u2019s for review. The DVD\u2019s to be covered are as follows: Transformers \u2013 More Than Meets the Eye, G.I. Joe The M.A.S.S. Device, and G.I. Joe Season 1.1\nNow, the 1st two DVD\u2019s listed are already included within the 1st Season Boxsets and Complete Series Boxsets. So I am not going in depth into those two as I will be doing TFG1 and G.I. Joe Season 1 Boxset reviews. This review will not only be in written form but in podcast form as well. Although the images included may not be the best quality, it is only due to my crappy Kodak camera not the boxsets themselves. The DVD covers are superbly done. I love the attention to detail in the characters which are presented in the front as well as the small screen shots on the back of the discs.\nThis first shot is of what was sent to us at GeekCastRadio.com prior to my opening them. The awesomeness of G.I. Joe Season 1.1 and the other two are Promo Prizes for our listeners provided by the great folks at Shout! Factory.\nTo start I will be starting with the Transformers Box Design. The Transformers disc contains very nice imaging. It shows very detailed art with Optimus Prime, Megatron and Starscream on the cover. The box is beautifully designed as is the image on the disc.\nThe Menu upon starting shows a grid with the faction symbols in a 3D environment and then turns into the Transformers logo which is also in a 3D environment. Very cool intro to the menu nonetheless. And then when the words appear to watch it will say \u201cPlay All\u201d or \u201cEpisodes\u201d. All while this is going on there is the original theme music in the background with various Autobot and Decepticon transformers running, shooting and transforming around the screen. Upon selecting the episodes it says \u201cAutobots, Transform and Roll\u201d. Another nice touch for all of us TF fans.\nThis Disc Includes the Following Episodes:More Than Meets the Eye, Parts 1-3 which is the 1st three episodes of Season One as well as the BONUS episodes Transport to Oblivion and Roll For It. All of which are included on the Season One Boxset and the Matrix of Leadership Complete Series Boxset.\nThe image quality is much better than what I have seen either by TV, VHS tapes or YouTube. The imaging still seems a little grainy especially when viewed on a 42\u201d HD Plasma TV. But still it is what it appeared like to start out with so it\u2019s fine in my opinion. The original errors are still in place from the original productions. I can tell Shout! Factory has done quite a bit though in the restorations. The colors seem to be still bright but overly so.\nThe audio quality in itself is pretty crisp. It sounds like it could have been a modern show in how well the audio is placed. The original audio errors of the character voices are still in place but that is due to the voices being placed wrong. But the other errors such as the Rhino added sounds and some other various audio clips have been restored to the original broadcast and are pretty clear sounding.\nThe long and short of it is, in the last 25 years it couldn\u2019t have been done much better.\nNOTE: This item will be a giveaway provided by Shout! Factory in a future contest.\nThe G.I. Joe Season 1.1 is a special 4 Disc DVD set. In this set includes 22 episodes. The first fifteen are the three 5-Part Mini-Series of The M.A.S.S. Device, The Revenge of Cobra and The Pyramid of Darkness finishing it off with the last seven episodes. Also present with this season comes the booklet with show titles, writers, original broadcast date and a small episode synopsis. Other includes are 3 G.I. Joe related tattoos, one being the symbols of Cobra, G.I. Joe and the Arashikage ninja clan worn by Snake-Eyes and Stormshadow.\nThe box presents Cobra Commander and the main Joes on the cover. It has a cool split showcase of their respective factions. On the back it shows a red background with some show details and special features as well as a few shots from the show. On the interior sleeves it showcases similar image shots with some small descriptions.\nHaving not been able to watch G.I. Joe other than by this DVD or from cable TV years ago, it was a great watch.\nThe menu interface displays a computer screen in 3D with the buttons blinking. In the center of the screen it shows clips from the show. Also of note is that the background music is some found within the show itself. The menu displays Play All, Episodes, and Bonus Features as your options.\nThe image quality is similar to that of the Transformers in that it is the highest quality it can be for the age of the cartoon. It even still is a pretty decent toon. The colors are crisp, bright and colorful as well. I like that that it is also true to it\u2019s original.\nThe audio quality like the Transformers Discs is just as good sounding. The original music and voicing is great. It was heard crystal clear as well.\nMore details on these such items will be done in the CobraCast Show which will be the reviews of each and every G.I. Joe episode. And a note this will only go up to the end of this series and not the future ones such as G.I. Joe Extreme. Unless in the future I decide to. G.I. Joe Resolute was partially covered in GCR Episode 01 but may have a larger role in the series later on.\n\u201cKnowing is Half the Battle\u201d PSAs\n\u201cLooking Back\u201d with writer Ron Friedman\nArchival Hasbro toy commercials\nG.I. JOE\u2019s original 1963 Toy Fair presentation\nPrintable script for \u201cJungle Trap\u201d\nAlthough this DVD is also included in the main Season 1.1 set, the box art is awesome on this one. I love the look of Cobra Commander and the attention to detail in this DVD short.\nThe rest of the details are pretty much the same.\nToonCast \u2013 Episode 08 \u2013 M.A.S.K.",

        "raw_content": "Fortnite Android Beta Arrives On Non-Samsung Phones\nFans have been waiting for the Fortnite Android beta to arrive on non-Samsung devices. The Android port of the popular game was exclusively released for Samsung smartphones for a few days after the Galaxy Note 9\u2019s announcement on August 9th. However, now the beta is available for devices from other manufacturers.\nJust realize that Epic Games will not be distributing the title through the Google Play Store. So Android users will have to download the Fortnite Installer application from Epic\u2019s website which will then download the game on their devices.\nSo Epic now allows non-Samsung devices owners to download Fortnite on their devices through the installer. But there is a catch. If the account used to log into Fortnite on the device hasn\u2019t been accepted into the beta, you can\u2019t play the game. Unless you are a non-Samsung user who gets an invite, you can\u2019t play the game even though you can now install it.\nYou have the option to join the waiting list instead. Epic will want to control the pace at which it allows new beta testers so that the server load can be managed, to prevent them from crashing.\nWe don\u2019t know when the Fortnite Android beta will finally be opened to all. Hopefully very soon.",

        "raw_content": "Jordanian Muslim Brotherhood Leader Calls On Palestinians To Start Third Intifada\nIn a rally organized by its political wing, the leader of the Jordanian Muslim Brotherhood has called for a \u201cthird Intifada\u201d in response to recent events in Israel described as \u201cIsraeli measures against Islamic holy sites in Jerusalem and Hebron.\u201d According to one report carried by a Middle Eastern news portal:\nIslamist leaders have called on the Palestinians to start a third Intifada in response to Israeli measures against Islamic holy sites in Jerusalem and Hebron.During a festival on Friday organised by the Islamic Action Front (IAF), the political wing of the Muslim Brotherhood, hundreds of participants chanted anti-Israeli slogans and called on the government to end diplomatic relations with Israel. Participants waved green flags and pictures of victims of Israel\u2019s onslaught on Gaza a year ago. They also held banners condemning the Wadi Araba Peace Treaty and Israeli practices in Arab countries. Several senior Islamist leaders, professional association activists and opposition figures were present during the one-hour ceremony, which was also held to mark the birthday of the Prophet Mohammad. Overall leader of the Muslim Brotherhood in Jordan, Hamam Said, who was the first to take the podium, highlighted the latest attack by Israel soldiers on Palestinian worshippers at Al Aqsa Mosque compound earlier on Friday. \u201cThis is happening under the watchful eyes of Arab and Muslim nations without anyone taking action we are not even hearing statements of condemnation,\u201d he said. Said added that a third Intifada could be the only answer to Israel\u2019s recent decision to include the Ibrahimi Mosque in Hebron and Bethlehem\u2019s Bilal Ben Rabah Mosque to a list of Israeli heritage sites. Kamal Al Khatib, a senior Islamist leader in Palestine, also attended the rally, where he warned against continued attacks on worshippers in Jerusalem. Several other Islamist leaders also addressed the gathering, including head of the IAF freedoms committee, Ali Abul Sukkar, former IAF secretary general Ibrahim Zeid Keilani, and president of the IAF shura council Hamzah Mansour.\nThe Jordan Times had reported earlier that the rally was organized by the Islamic Action Front (IAF), generally regarded as the political wing of the Jordanian Muslim Brotherhood. The Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood web site had also reported \u201cThe IAF underscored that the silence over these Israeli procedures would persuade Israel to advance with its plans to \u2018judaise\u2019 Al-Aqsa Mosque, calling on the Arabs and the Muslims to take actions to face the \u2018conceitedness\u2019 of Israel and its plans. An earlier post discussed the statement by the IAF leader that his movement is willing to sacrifice \u201cour lives and money\u201d for the sake of holy sites, referring to a recent Israeli government decision to include two sites on the West Bank as Israeli National Heritage sites.\nThe IAF Secretary-General is Ishaq Farhan, a Jordanian of Palestinian origin, one of the three founders of the IAF, and a former education minister and senator. Mr. Farhan is also listed as a director of the International Institute of Islamic Thought (IIIT), founded in the U.S. in 1980 by important members of the Global Muslim Brotherhood who wished to promote the \u201cIslamization of Knowledge.\u201d IIIT was associated with the now defunct SAAR Foundation, a network of Islamic organizations located in Northern Virginia that was raided by the Federal government in March 2002 in connection with the financing of terrorism. In 2000, Mr. Farhan was denied entry to the U.S. after having had his visa revoked in the prior year without informing him. The New York Times reported at that time that unidentified American diplomats called Mr. Farhan a \u201cmoderating force\u201d and that he \u201cas kept a distance from the vociferous opposition to peaceful relations with Israel.\u201d However, in 2003 a media report said that the IAF had \u201cdeclared a jihad in favor of Iraq and Palestine if the US attacks Iraq.\u201d More recently, after congratulating President Obama on his election, the IAF called his decision to send more troops to Afghanistan \u201ca hostile step against the Arab and Islamic worlds. In 2009, the IAF also called Israeli actions in Gaza \u201cthe ugliest crime in history.\u201d\nA post from earlier this week reported that the deputy leader of the IAF is scheduled to appear as a featured speaker at the annual conference of the Center for the Study of Islamic and Democracy (CSID) in April. As that post discussed, CSID has many ties to the U.S. Muslim Brotherhood.\nLeader Of Jordanian Muslim Brotherhood Calls For Slaughter Of Jews The head of the Jordanian Muslim Brotherhood has called for...",

        "raw_content": "Chief Fire Officer calls for more resources to carry out fire safety inspections, in wake of Grenfell tragedy\nJune 29, 2017 /in Uncategorized /by Gavin Malone\nDublin\u2019s Chief Fire Officer has called for more resources for local authorities to carry out fire safety inspections, in wake of the Grenfell tower tragedy in London.\nPatrick Fleming said that the resources are needed to prevent such tragedies that left 79 people dead.\nLord Mayor M\u00edche\u00e1l Mac Donncha welcomed the call saying that on-site inspections are needed.\n\u201cThe Grenfell tragedy in London has again highlighted the need for absolute vigilance in fire prevention and fire safety. I welcome the call by Chief Fire Officer Patrick Fleming for more resources for local authorities to carry out building control inspections.\u201d\nHe added that the current system was introduced in the wake of the evacuation of the Priory Hall apartment complex.\n\u201cThat near tragedy showed the failure of the self-certification system. While new regulations have seen some improvement this problem will become more acute as building and development continues.\n\u201cIn this regard I welcome the fact that plans are being implemented in Dublin City Council to introduce a system of onsite inspections during construction for fire safety issues (Part B of the Building Regulations)\u201d.\nEarlier this week, calls were made to remove Grenfell Tower- type cladding from the headquarters of Cork County Council.\nRead More: Calls to remove Grenfell Tower-type cladding installed in Cork County Council headquarters\nIndependent.ie understands that Cork County councillors were emailed to notify them that the cladding was installed around the exterior of the second floor of County Hall, the floor that contains the main council chamber.\nHowever, they were assured that the cladding currently imposes no increased risk of danger.\nIn an email seen by Independent.ie, councillors were told \u201cthe Council\u2019s Facilities Manager and Chief Fire Officer have reviewed the matter and having regard to the limited extent of the use of the panel, the nature of the use of the building and the fire safety measures installed, the use of the panelling meets all fire safety requirements and does not pose any increased risk to the users of the building.\u201d\nCork County Council has since commissioned a report investigating the nature of its installation, and says further action will be taken should the investigation raise any concerns.\nThe cladding was installed during a \u20ac62m refurbishment of the 17-storey County Hall which was finished in 2006.\nDespite reassurances from the council, Fine Gael councillor Derry Canty says that the cladding should still be removed as soon as possible.\n\u201cI think the best thing for everybody is to remove it,\u201d Cllr. Canty said.\n\u201cIf it\u2019s there, it\u2019s left there and everyone is just worrying about it.\n\u201cWe\u2019re only in there for meetings but you have staff sitting in there all day. I believe this should be done post-haste, let\u2019s get on with it.\u201d\nHowever, one Independent councillor, Marcia D\u2019Alton, said she has no concerns about continuing to meet in the building, insisting that she has confidence in the fire safety measures being taken.\n\u201cHonestly, I\u2019ve don\u2019t have any concerns. We have been ensured the building has been incredibly well kitted out with sprinklers and the necessary fire precautions,\u201d Cllr. D\u2019Alton said.\n\u201cI know the extent to which the building has been electronically modified. It is an incredibly well finished building so I genuinely believe the council when they say the precautions being made are adequate.\u201d\nCork County Council says it currently has a number of comprehensive fire safety measures installed, including sprinkler protection, automatic smoke ventilation, detection and an electronic alarm system.\nSource \u2013

fire safety inspections, in wake of Grenfell tragedy\nDublin\u2019s chief fire officer says more resources needed to carry out inspections\nDUBLIN FIRE BRIGADE\u2019S Chief Fire Officer has said that local authorities are best placed to carry out building control inspections in the wake of the Grenfell fire but resources aren\u2019t available to do it.\nSpeaking to RT\u00c9\u2019s Morning Ireland, Patrick Fleming said local authorities need more resources to carry out the inspections:\nWell I think every local authority has a building control section, and fire services as well, and the local authority system is probably the best situated service in order to provide that.\n\u201cHowever it does need the resources to do that and that is where there may be some issues,\u201d he concluded.\nResponding to Fleming\u2019s point on the same programme the Minister for Housing Eoghan Murphy outlined his department\u2019s reaction to the deadly London blaze, which claimed at least 79 lives earlier this month.\n\u201cThe first responsibility that I think we have here is to ensure that there are fire safety measures in place in all multi-storey buildings.\n\u201cWe moved very quickly to liaise with the building control authorities, to liaise with the fire authorities to ensure that they were doing this inspection work.\n\u201cBy the 19th of July we\u2019ll have reports back from the local authorities on their inspection of multi-storey units.\n\u201cBy that point as well all local authorities will have inspected cladding on buildings over 18 metres.\nThese are important first steps that we need to take to make sure that people are safe where they live.\nMurphy confirmed in a statement earlier this morning that he had ordered the coordination of a high-level task force to lead the re-appraisal of fire safety in Ireland.\nThe Minister has ordered a series of measures to be completed by the task force in the weeks ahead to ensure that all available precautionary measures are taken to prevent a similar fire happening here.\n\u201cWhile preliminary work shows that there are no situations in Ireland directly comparable to Grenfell Tower,\u201d Murphy said, \u201cWe must learn the lessons and take appropriate and balanced action to minimise the possibility of a large-scale fire occurring in Ireland.\u201d\nThe National Directorate for Fire and Emergency Management is charged with coordinating the task force.\nThis body reported on the national audit of fire safety in Traveller accommodation in the wake of the Carrickmines fire in 2015, which killed five adults, five children and one unborn baby.\nThe directorate will work with building standards and social housing divisions at the Housing Department, in addition to the chief fire officer in Dublin.\nA review of how each local authority\u2019s fire service is prepared to deal with a large-scale incident is underway.\nLandlords are also being notified of their obligations in terms of fire safety requirements.\nAs well as the measures already taken, Murphy has ordered a number of other steps to be taken in the weeks ahead to ensure the country is doing everything it can to avoid a similar fire here.\nThese include the publication of a guide on undertaking fire safety assessments and a renewed focus on the preparedness of local authorities for a large-scale emergency.\nMurphy will also update his cabinet colleagues on the post-Grenfell situation in Ireland, and meet with local authority chief fire officers in the coming weeks to review current plans for fire safety initiatives.\nHe closed the statement outlining the measures by urging every householder in Ireland to \u201censure that the most effective and straightforward measure for safeguarding families from fire \u2013 smoke alarms \u2013 are installed and fully functional in every home and are tested regularly\u201d.\n\u201cSystematic re-check\u201d\nLast week, Leo Varadkar\u2019s government lost its first vote since he became Taoiseach, when a Green Party motion on building standards \u2013 made more pertinent by the Grenfell blaze \u2013 passed through the D\u00e1il.\nYesterday, calls were made to extend fire safety checks beyond multi-floor social housing units following the discovery that the same cladding used in Grenfell Tower was used in the headquarters of Cork County Council.\nThe council confirmed that a similar aluminium material used in Grenfell Tower is currently installed around the exterior of the council chamber within the main foyer of the building.\nThe cladding was installed during a \u20ac62 million refurbishment of the Council Hall which was completed in 2006.\nReacting to the news, Green Party deputy leader Catherine Martin TD said that Minister Murphy \u201cmust order a systematic re-check of fire safety in buildings\u201d.\n\u201cIt\u2019s extremely worrying that the flammable cladding, believed to have contributed to the spread of the awful fire in Grenfell Tower, was installed here in Ireland,\u201d she said.\nIndependent TD Tommy Broughan also raised worries that the unsafe cladding used in the UK may have been used here too.\nHe said: \u201cThe same restrictions apply in Ireland that you can\u2019t use non-compliant material yet it has been used in the UK and we need to know now if it has also been used in Ireland.\u201d\nSource \u2013

inspections\nPolice say death toll in Grenfell Tower fire \u2018around 80 people\u2019\nJune 28, 2017 /in News /by Gavin Malone\nThe death toll from the Grenfell Tower fire is believed to be around 80 people, the vast majority of whom were from just 23 flats, British police have said.\nMetropolitan Police Detective Superintendent Fiona McCormack said contact had been made with at least one person from 106 of the 129 flats in the building.\nFrom those flats, 18 people are dead or assumed dead, while the remaining victims were thought to have been in the flats which had not been heard from.\nMs McCormack confirmed more than 60 organisations were helping police with their investigation.\nEfforts to establish who was missing in the wake of the fire were focused on talking to friends, families and neighbours of those in Grenfell Tower, Ms McCormack said.\nShe said: \u201cOn the first day of our work we were provided with a list by the tenant management organisation of who they had recorded living at Grenfell Tower.\n\u201cWe quickly identified by the end of the first day that this list was not accurate.\u201d\nShe added: \u201cWhat we know is that it would be impossible for anyone to produce a list to show exactly who was at Grenfell Tower that night, that includes the people who were living there or who were visiting.\u201d\nThe 23 flats which were said to have no survivors were spread between the 11th floor and the 23rd.\nA handful of flats were still too unstable for police to carry out further investigation, she said.\nPolice have examined \u201cevery imaginable source\u201d of information about who was in the building, \u201cfrom government agencies to fast food companies\u201d, Ms McCormack added.\nShe said that a couple who were missing and assumed dead had actually been on holiday at the time of the blaze.\nCouncils warned about cladding weeks before London fire\nEvery London council was warned by Britain\u2019s fire service that cladding on high-rise buildings could be dangerous just weeks before the tragedy.\nIn a letter sent to all 33 local authorities and housing providers in the capital in May, the London Fire Brigade urged them to consider if panels could be flammable.\nThe safety advice came in the wake of a fire at Shepherd\u2019s Court in Hammersmith, west London, in August 2016, where cladding was found to have aided its spread.\nThe letter said: \u201cIn the case of this fire, we believe such panels were a contributory factor to the external fire spread.\u201d\nFlammable cladding is suspected to have accelerated the scale of the west London blaze on 14 June.\nIn the correspondence, a \u201cnumber of cases\u201d were said to be found where fire protection on external facades \u201cdid not comply\u201d with building regulations.\nThe disclosure comes as British Prime Minister Theresa May confirmed 120 tower blocks have failed fire safety tests and face having their cladding removed.\nSuggestions were made in the letter, signed by assistant commissioner Dan Daly, that contractors might have believed wrongly that separate safety certificates for glazing also extended to cladding.\nThe letter said: \u201cIn the light of fires that have occurred, I would urge you to consider carefully your arrangements for specifying, monitoring and approving all aspects of future replacement and improvement to building facades and construction of new buildings for which you are responsible.\n\u201cContracts for the provision and installation of replacement elements of building facades, including insulation, replacement double glazing and associated spandrel and in-fill panels must ensure compliance with all parts of Part B if they are to secure public safety and minimise fire losses.\n\u201cI would therefore strongly urge that you consider this issue as part of the risk assessment process for premises under your control.\n\u201cI suggest that you make sure all relevant information about any replacement window and facade schemes is fully available to fire risk assessors.\n\u201cWhere no reliable information is available for a given property, it is our general expectation that a strategy to assess the risk and where necessary implement short, medium and long term actions to address the risk.\n\u201cThis assessment will need to take account of other fire safety measures already in place in the building as well as potential mitigation measures to ensure that any potential fire spread does not pose a risk to health and safety.\u201d\nThe Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, where Grenfell Tower is located, would have received a copy of the letter, LFB said.\nKensington and Chelsea Council said this afternoon: \u201cWe know there are many questions relating to fire safety standards.\n\u201cThe council is committed to cooperating fully with both the public inquiry and the criminal investigation.\n\u201cWe do not think it is right to make comments relevant to the inquiry or subject to the investigation until this issue has been discussed with the police and the solicitors to the public inquiry once they have been appointed.\n\u201cThe council does not want to prejudice the fair conduct of the public inquiry in any way. We will update you as soon as those discussions have taken place.\u201d\nMrs May announced in Parliament this afternoon that the number of tower blocks in Britain found to have combustible cladding after failing fire safety tests has grown to 120.\nMrs May said flammable cladding was found in the high-rise blocks across 37 local authority areas in England in tests carried out in the wake of the Grenfell Tower disaster.\nShe said 100% of the cladding samples tested have been found to be combustible and urged local authorities and housing associations to \u201cget on\u201d with fire safety checks without waiting for test results.\nAt Prime Minister\u2019s Questions, Mrs May said 282 good quality temporary properties have been identified for victims of the Grenfell Tower disaster, 132 families have had their needs assessed, and 65 offers of temporary accommodation have been made.\nThe government has provided nearly \u00a31.25 million in discretionary payments and will be giving an extra \u00a31m to a local group of charities, trusts and foundations \u201cwhich have been doing such important work\u201d, Mrs May said.\nThe PM said she expects to name a judge for the public inquiry into the disaster \u201csoon\u201d.\nLabour leader Jeremy Corbyn asked for a \u201ccategorical\u201d answer on whether cladding with a combustible core, such as polyethylene, is legal for high-rise buildings, and if that used on Grenfell Tower was legal.\nMrs May replied: \u201cThe situation is, in relation to the cladding, that the building regulations identify the cladding which is compatible with the building regulations and that which is non-compliant with those building regulations.\n\u201cMy understanding is that this particular cladding was not compliant with the building regulations.\n\u201cThis raises wider issues, as the House will recognise, and it is important that we are careful in how we talk about this because there is a criminal investigation taking place and it\u2019s important that we allow the police to do that criminal investigation and take the decisions that they need to take.\u201d\nSource \u2013 https://www.rte.ie/news/2017/0628/886196-london-fire/\nhttps://www.gmesecurity.ie/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/GME.LOGO_.white_.png 0 0 Gavin Malone https://www.gmesecurity.ie/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/GME.LOGO_.white_.png Gavin Malone2017-06-28 18:45:552017-06-28 18:45:55Police say death toll in Grenfell Tower fire 'around 80 people'",

        "raw_content": "Virus writers are picking up new Microsoft attack\nEset has spotted two new attacks; many more are expected\nThe Windows attack used by a recently discovered worm is being picked up by other virus writers and will soon become much more widespread, according to security vendor Eset.\nEset reported Thursday that two new families of malicious software have popped up, both of which exploit a vulnerability in the way Windows processes .link files, used to provide shortcuts to other files on the system.\nThe vulnerability was first exploited by the Stuxnet worm, discovered on computer systems in Iran last month. Highly sophisticated, Stuxnet targets systems running Siemens industrial control system management software. The worm steals SCADA (supervisory control and data acquisition) project files from Siemens' computer systems.\nSiemens issued a Security Update for its customers on Thursday, but Microsoft has yet to patch the Windows bug that permits the worm to spread.\nThe newly discovered malware is \"far less sophisticated\" than Stuxnet and \"suggests bottom feeders seizing on techniques developed by others,\" said Eset researcher Pierre-Marc Bureau, writing in a blog post.\nOne of the new samples installs a keystroke logger, a tool hackers use to steal passwords and other data, on the victim's computer. \"The server used to deliver the components used in this attack is presently located in the US, but the IP is assigned to a customer in China,\" Bureau said.\nThe other variant could be used to install one of several different pieces of malicious software.\nAs each new variant of the attack pops up, it adds pressure on Microsoft to patch the underlying vulnerability. Microsoft's next set of security patches is due Aug. 10, but if enough customers get infected, the company may be forced to rush out an emergency patch for the issue.\nMicrosoft has already posted a temporary workaround to the problem and says it is working on a patch.\nRight now, the Stuxnet worm makes up a very tiny volume -- less than 1/100th of a percent -- of the malware that Eset is seeing on the Internet, said Randy Abrams, Eset's director of technical education, in an interview.\nHowever that's likely to change. \"It's likely to become one of the most prevalent attack vectors,\" he said. \"I expect that within a few months, we'll see hundreds if not thousands of pieces of malware using the link vulnerability.\"\nTags Microsoftmalwareeset",

        "raw_content": "A Real-World Health Care Solution\nJun 16, 2015 | Rep. Diane Black \u2022\nAs a nurse for more than 40 years, I saw how health care decisions in Washington impacted real people and I learned that one of the biggest challenges of health reform is finding ways to keep costs low while improving outcomes and helping Americans lead healthier lives.\nI also learned that, in order to get there, we should not have to ask more of American taxpayers. This year alone, the government will spend about $1 trillion on healthcare programs. So instead of simply throwing more money at the problem, we need to spend our dollars more effectively to improve the value of care delivered.\nOne way we can control spending is by addressing manageable problems before they become big problems. Studies have shown that regularly taking doctor prescribed medication is an important step in preventing health issues from escalating into serious, life-altering conditions that can place a tremendous financial burden on the healthcare system, on patients and their families. With such a simple solution, why aren\u2019t more folks taking their medication?\nAs anyone with a chronic health condition will tell you, sticking to a constant regimen of medication isn\u2019t cheap. A diabetic, for example, could end up spending $250 a month on test trips and $200 a month or more on insulin. When families are forced to choose between buying groceries and getting a prescription filled, their health is sidelined and the long-term costs to our healthcare system can increase as a result. By the same token, evidence has shown that reducing co-payments for high-value prescription drugs results in increased use, better health, and cost savings.\nOne of the most promising approaches to addressing the cost of medication without overstepping the government\u2019s bounds in the marketplace is Value-Based Insurance Design (V-BID). Instead of the current one-size-fits-all approach to cost-sharing or copayments, V-BID embraces the idea that, by lowering a patients\u2019 out-of-pocket costs for essential prescription drugs and services, consumers will then be motivated to stick to their regimen and stay healthier \u2013 in turn decreasing the overall long term costs to our healthcare system.\nBased on these facts, I introduced H.R. 2570, the Strengthening Medicare Advantage through Innovation and Transparency for Seniors Act. My bipartisan legislation establishes a regional demonstration program for high-quality Medicare Advantage (MA) plans that allows the use of V-BID to reduce the copayments for beneficiaries with specific chronic conditions. This bill would enable individuals with chronic diseases to stick to a sustainable treatment regimen and avoid more costly care in the future.\nH.R. 2570 also drives down healthcare costs by eliminating unnecessary burdens on physicians and providers. Today, many outpatient surgery centers are penalized for not adopting a new, government-mandated system of electronic record keeping. While these systems may make sense in a hospital setting, they don\u2019t always work for a small outpatient surgery center. It is a catch-22 situation that forces physicians who work in these settings to either perform even minor, outpatient procedures in a hospital, which means higher costs for the patient, or face enormous government penalties. My legislation gets Washington off the backs of our healthcare providers by eliminating this burden for doctors.\nAs Congress continues working to repeal Obamacare and roll back other burdens this Administration has placed on patients and their doctors, H.R. 2570 is a meaningful, real-world solution that offers a chance to improve health outcomes and reduce barriers to quality, affordable healthcare for those who need it most.\n\u2014 Representative Diane Black (R-TN)\nFacebook: /DianeBlackTN06\nTwitter: @RepDianeBlack\nYouTube: /RepDianeBlack",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Supply chain survives weather-related calamities\nFocus, Manufacturing, and Travel & Tourism\nSupply chain survives weather-related calamities\nPlanning, cooperation helped West Michigan\u2019s logistics firms survive the onslaught.\nTAGS Classic Transportation & Warehousing / Les Brand / supply chain\nSupply Chain Solutions acquires unit of England Logistics to expand abroad\nInside Track: Navigating transportation and supply chain management\nWest Michigan companies win federal supply chain excellence awards\nWarehouses kept products a little longer than usual during this month\u2019s winter storms, but for the most part West Michigan\u2019s logistics providers averted a crisis. Courtesy Thinkstock\nWhen the polar vortex settled over the Midwest, it made many morning commutes nearly impossible.\nThose icy roads are the same ones that allow supply chain companies to ensure day-to-day functions carry on, and many freight and warehousing companies felt the same pinch from the weather conditions as the rest of the country.\nEarly January saw record low temperatures, huge amounts of snowfall, unprecedented school closings, massive amounts of traffic accidents and delays, and even closed roads.\nFortunately, the cold, ice and snow didn\u2019t continue into a second week. Had the bad weather kept up, consumers would have started to see lag effects in the supply chain.\n\u201cLonger-term delays, you start to see them,\u201d said Les Brand, CEO of Supply Chain Solutions, who was recently tapped by Gov. Rick Snyder to help with the state\u2019s supply chain and logistics strategy.\n\u201cIf it starts to get over a week, then you start seeing the issues. We were darn near it \u2014 and there were some grocery store issues.\u201d\nBrand said everything is time related, and many companies have a supply of products ready to go in case of a delay. Stores may manage to replenish stock so consumers never notice.\nHowever, Brand said, Michigan manufacturers have developed an inventory lead time reduction system and carry only what is needed to produce the products currently being made. A few days of delay in the supply chain can wreak havoc on a lean manufacturer\u2019s production line.\n\u201cShipments were arriving \u2018just in time,\u2019\u201d Brand said. \u201cSince things are moved by trucks, disruptions in traffic slow everything down.\u201d\nBecause of travel conditions, Classic Transportation & Warehousing in Grand Rapids shut down its runs to Chicago on Jan. 6 and 7 during the worst of the weather. Classic makes 40 daily trips to Chicago to pick up containers from the rail yard. The company did continue its West Michigan deliveries.\nTraffic was down to one lane to and from Chicago, said Donna Randall, Classic\u2019s director of business development.\n\u201cWe shut down for basic safety reasons,\u201d Randall said. \u201cWe have a lot of owner-operator (truck drivers) and we can\u2019t force dispatch.\u201d\nBecause of the shutdown, Classic had a backlog of 120 containers to get to West Michigan. \u201cWe can\u2019t snap our fingers and have them all here,\u201d she said.\nWhen containers are left at a yard or in storage, the freight company has a certain amount of time to pick them up before a per-diem is charged. Randall said this time around, most places were understanding about the delays caused by the weather and worked with Classic to find a solution.\nStill, that was two days of revenue the company lost, she said.\n\u201cWe did have to pull a few containers to a drop lot and pay storage,\u201d Randall said. \u201cThat\u2019s not something you can pass on to customers. But I\u2019ve never had so many calls about moving freight.\u201d\nClassic was still catching up on its backlog early last week with volunteer runs by its drivers, Randall said.\nThe supply chain industry is an interconnected, winding path of freight with many possibilities for delays. \u201cIt\u2019s like a snake eating a pig,\u201d Brand said. \u201cYou get stuck at different points.\u201d\nHe said just as passenger planes were canceled, so too were freight planes, and most boats were unable to make it to ports on time.\nBut slow \u2014 or even stopped \u2014 traffic and containers backed up in storage weren\u2019t the only issues the supply chain was dealing with. There were utility disruptions across the state that could have been a huge issue, Brand said. Had the power outages been in the summer and not in subzero weather, refrigerated warehouses would have been in a world of hurt. At one point, state utilities estimated that approximately 666,000 customers were without power for at least some portion of the storm.\nShipments didn\u2019t come to a full standstill, however. Aside from some highway closings, Brand said travel just took extra time. He said the infrastructure is in place to keep roads clear \u2014 except in some cases where communities, such as Allegan, stopped plowing for financial reasons. He added that some communities, such as Grand Rapids, must now find the money to make sure the roads are put back in suitable condition, with many potholes and cracks to repair.\n\u201cTraffic was still moving,\u201d he said. \u201cCompanies did a great job of getting shipments where they needed to be.\u201d\nAs Randall mentioned, should a shipment be lost or late, the costs can\u2019t be passed on to customers or consumers. Classic maintains insurance on all its shipments, and most contracts have clauses allowing for delays due to \u201cacts of God.\u201d\n\u201cIt\u2019s understood that you can\u2019t do anything about it,\u201d Brand said.\nIf those contracts weren\u2019t in place, he said, it\u2019s likely lawsuits would have sprung up along the supply chain. Where there may be some legal activity as a result of the weather is with the utility companies, he added.\n\u201cCompanies are looking at the utility providers and asking, \u2018Why did it take so long to get it fixed?\u2019\u201d Brand said.\nThere was a huge sigh of relief from online retailers that the storm happened after the holidays. Shipments already were delayed following all-time record highs in online commerce, and many packages from websites such as Amazon.com didn\u2019t make it to the doorstep on time as guaranteed. Those shipments should be back to normal now, Brand said.\n\u201cThe online websites weren\u2019t prepared and couldn\u2019t catch up to the orders,\u201d he said. \u201cThat was a major issue. Next year, they\u2019ll be better prepared, no question.\u201d\nThe supply chain industry is well prepared for instances such as this month\u2019s storm. Issues still arise, but each storm brings more preparedness, Brand said.\n\u201cWeather stuff, if you plan for it, isn\u2019t too bad,\u201d he said. \u201cIf you start to plan for it before it hits, then it\u2019s not so bad.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "H-1B: US Resumes Premium Processing In All Categories\nWashington: The US has resumed premium processing of H-1B work visas in all categories, months after it was suspended temporarily to handle the huge rush of applications for the work visas popular among Indian IT professionals.\nPremium processing of H-1B visa was suspended in April to handle huge rush of new petitions. In September, the country opened up some categories of the H-1B visas for the fast processing.\n\"Premium processing is now available for all types of H-1B petitions,\" US Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) said on Tuesday.\nThe technology companies depend on it to hire tens of thousands of employees each year.\nAs mandated by the Congress every year USCIS can issue a maximum of 65,000 H-1B visas and 20,000 to those who have earned higher education in STEM subjects from a US higher educational institution.\nH-1B visas to several categories like those in academic and research institutes is exempted from the Congressional mandated limit.\nWhen a petitioner requests the agency's premium processing service, USCIS guarantees a 15-calendar day processing time.\nIf that time is not met, the agency will refund the petitioner's premium processing service fee and continue with expedited processing of application.\nMeanwhile, Kenneth Juster, nominee for US Ambassador to India, during his confirmation hearing said that H-1B visa has been an important part of the India-US relationship and there is a consensus that it should be corrected to high quality jobs.\n\"I think there is a consensus that it (H-1B) should be corrected to high quality jobs. I think that message from my understanding is being heard in India as well in the United States,\" Juster told members of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee.\n\"However, actual details on what will be the final policy on H-1B remains to be determined. So I'm not really in a position to represent the administration on where they are,\" Juster said when asked about his position on H-1B visas by Senator Chris Coons.\nThe Trump administration is currently reviewing the H-1B visa policy as it thinks that the visa is being misused by companies to replace American workers.\nExternal Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj raised the visa issue with US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson when the two leaders met in New York last month on the sidelines of the UNGeneral Assembly.

        "title": "Sri Lanka: Tamils, leftists debate elections | Green Left Weekly",
        "raw_content": "Sri Lanka: Tamils, leftists debate elections\nOpposition-backed presidential candidate Maithripala Sirisena is supported by some Tamils and human rights activists, but others\nSri Lankan President Mahinda Rajapaksa is being challenged by Maithripala Sirisena, who was until recently one of his ministers, in the January 8 presidential elections. However, many Tamils and leftists see little difference between the two.\nSirisena is being supported by the opposition United National Party, and has promised to appoint UNP leader Ranil Wickramasinghe as prime minister. There are 16 other candidates.\nSirisena has promised to abolish the system of executive presidency, which concentrates power in the hands of the president, and replace it with a system where the parliament has more power.\nThis change has long been advocated by many human rights advocates, who think that reducing the arbitrary power of the president would improve the human rights situation. Some human rights advocates are supporting Sirisena for this reason.\nHowever the Tamil Civil Society Forum sees no real difference between Rajapaksa and Sirisena.\nIn a statement issued on December 23, the TCSF said: \u201cRegime change does not necessarily result in change in the lives of the Tamil people. Both main parties in the South \u2026 are deeply embedded in the Sinhala Buddhist [majority], chauvinist, anti-Tamil politics.\n\u201cThey do not even have a minimally just position on Tamil issues. For example both parties are not even prepared to discuss a solution that goes beyond the confines of a unitary constitution.\n\u201cBoth parties are also against international investigations [of war crimes] ... The opposition candidate also has repeatedly confirmed that his position is no different from that of the incumbent President with regard to both a political solution and accountability for crimes committed against the Tamils.\u201d\nThe TCSF said changing the form of government from presidential to parliamentary would not solve the fundamental problem: \u201cThe Tamil people have suffered equally under Westminster style parliamentary form of Governments, prior to the enactment of the Second Republican Constitution. When the Sinhala Only Act was enacted in 1956 Sri Lanka had a parliamentary form of Government.\u201d\nThe TCSF also said the attacks on the democratic rights of people in the predominantly Sinhalese south of the island of Sri Lanka are a by-product of the decades-long war against the Tamils. In 2009, the Sri Lankan state finally defeated the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE), which fought for an independent state in the predominantly Tamil north-east.\nIt said: \u201cThe fact is the denial of democracy currently being experienced by the Sinhalese is a cumulative impact of the anti-Tamil politics of successive Sinhala Governments. The denial of democracy that they suffer now is result of them being bystanders [or] endorsing the anti-Tamil agenda of successive Governments.\n\u201cIn our opinion the only sustainable path to democratization lies in the creation of a popular discourse that is created by taking a just stand on the National Question.\u201d\nThe Tamil National Peoples Front has taken a similar view. TNPF leader Gajendrakumar Ponnambalam said that Sirisena is being backed by the Jathika Hela Urumaya, an extremist Buddhist Sinhalese organisation, as well as other groups hostile to Tamil rights.\nAnother extremist Sinhalese Buddhist group, Bodu Bala Sena, is supporting Rajapaksa.\nHowever some leaders of the Tamil National Alliance, the main electoral party of the Tamils, are supporting Sirisena.\nLeft parties in the south of Sri Lanka are also divided. The NSSP (New Socialist Party) is supporting Sirisena, whereas the United Socialist Party is not.\nNSSP leader Vickramabahu Karunaratne said the key struggles in Sri Lanka are for democracy and against the influence of multinational corporations, and that Sirisena should be given \u201ccritical support\u201d for supporting these struggles.\nKarunaratne said: \u201cWhen presidential candidate Maithree [Sirisena] attacks the plunder carried out by [multinationals] with the connivance of the government, the NSSP gets the opportunity to put forward a consistent, clear alternative program to be carried out under the power of workers, peasants and fishers.\u201d\nOn the other hand, USP presidential candidate Siritunga Jayasuriya said: \u201cThere is no difference between these two capitalist parties. Choosing among them is not a real choice for the people.\u201d\nJayasuriya is campaigning against privatisation and for cutting military spending to fund better wages and services. He also supports self-determination for Tamils, saying: \u201cThe Tamil-speaking population has suffered immensely over the decades.\n\u201cI and my party stand firmly in support of the rights of the Tamil-speaking people and their ultimate right to self determination, including the right to secession if that\u2019s what they desire, with the rights of all minorities safeguarded.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Brazil Hostel Information\nHostels In Brazil\nBrazil is probably one of the most magical places to travel. Whether you\u00b4re looking for a perfect beach to spend a week, looking for fun at Rio Carnival, or on a search for real adventure in the Amazon; God designed Brazil to fit your expectations!\nBrazil is huge and varied, but common to most places in the country are good hostels for your stay. Depending on the money you have and the kind of trip you\u00b4re looking for, there are many hostel options. Brazil is a country well prepared for tourism and has good accommodation to meet your needs. Brazilian people are very freindly: you can always expect a smile when booking a room.\nIf you\u00b4re backpacking and travelling Brazil by bus, you will want to stay in hostels. In the main cities such as Rio de Janeiro, Sao Paulo, Salvador de Bahia and many others you will be overwhelmed by hostel choices and they\u00b4re usually located in the main tourist centers and downtown. In smaller cities and beach towns, you can also find good hostels, but normally you\u00b4ll have fewer options.\nHostels in Brazil usually combine price with quality, but don't be expecting five star facilities and services, rather a shared environment and hopefully helpful staff. A great number of today's hostels were once old residential houses or even former hotels which have been refurbished and transformed into a hostel.\nHostels provide rooms to be shared with other people, ranging from a few people to as many as 20 people. Expect to be sleeping in bunks, and in some there is a bathroom for every room, but this is not always the case as some just have big communal bathrooms for the whole hostel. Usually Brazilian hostels have nice socializing spaces, some have a bar and almost all will provide internet, either charging a small fee or offering it as a courtesy to guests. Laundry service is usually available and travellers save money by cooking their own food in the hostel kitchen.\nIn the best hostels there is usually a party vibe at night where guests are compelled to socialize. The good thing about hostels in Brazil is that you can meet a lot of people that are traveling to the same places as you. You can get excellent tips and advice from other travelers and you may even find a travel partner for your trip.\nIf you\u00b4re looking for an alternative to hostels, you can get a variety of other accommodation. In big cities, if you\u00b4re not comfortable in a hostel and you\u00b4re looking for an individual room, you can get nice hotels for decent prices. There are also pousadas (similar to European bed and breakfasts) and these are usually a great place to stay. They are not too big or crowded and run by the owners, so normally pousadas have a friendly atmosphere. In small towns there are hotels called familiar, which are nice and cheap. Even though they are pleasant, expect them to have shared toilets and even sometimes hammocks for sleeping.\nHere are some useful tips for Brazilian Hostels:\nIf you\u00b4re traveling in high season (Carnival - February/March, New Year or Easter) don\u00b4t forget to book well in advance. In these periods some hotels only book for a minimum of 2 or 3 days or sometimes they only have weekly packages. Expect higher prices as well!\nUse the lockers provided in the hostels. Even though they\u00b4re safe places, lockers are a good idea for preventing problems. Bring your own lock, as some hostels do not provide these and others rent them.\nHostel prices include breakfast. Be prepared for a lot of bread, ham, cheese and even breakfast cake!\nIn some hostels there\u00b4s a service for book exchange, some you may have to pay a small fee on top of exchanging a book.\nTake advantage of hostel advertisements and pamphlets to be found around the reception area, they offer good information, deals, and fliers of other hostels around the country.",

Yosef's wife Tova, 68, was wounded in the attack.\nYosef is survived by three other grown children. Elad's wife Michal managed to hide their five children from the attacker in another room, from where she called for help.\nChaya and Elad's brother-in-law, Ran Menzely, eulogized his wife's sister at the funeral. \"You didn't have a husband and children of your own, but we all know that for years you educated the girls,\" he said, referring to Elad's children. \"Chaya, these girls are your daughters.

Terrorism will never defeat us,\" he said, adding: \"We will continue to build our country.\"\nThe attacker, 19-year-old Omar al-Abed of the nearby West Bank village of Khobar, is believed to have acted alone. He jumped over the settlement\u2019s fence and entered the home while the family was enjoying a festive Shabbat dinner to celebrate the birth of a grandson. An off-duty soldier who lives next door heard the shouting and noise, came running and shot the terrorist through one of the windows, seriously wounding him.\nAn army investigation found that al-Abed approached the settlement from his home in the town of Khobar, about two and a half kilometers away. He posted a message on Facebook hinting at his plan about an hour and 40 minutes before the attack. It took a few minutes for him to reach the house from the perimeter fence. Another 15 minutes passed before the off-duty soldier who shot him arrived.\nThe army is investigating how an alert from the alarm system that the terrorist enabled by touching the fence only reached the civilian guards of the settlement and not the army, whose forces only arrived after reports of the attack spread. The army raided the terrorist\u2019s home in Khobar, arrested his brother and imposed a curfew on the town.\nThe army has beefed up its forces in the West Bank with a number of regular battalions. It has also conducted arrests across the West Bank and ramped up monitoring of Palestinians using social networks in wake of multiple threats and warnings of additional attacks.",

(1408041AM2)\nA Harrogate taxi driver accused of murder told a court he could not remember all of what he did when he attacked his love rival in front of his wife and children.\nLeeds Crown Court yesterday (January 20) heard from police interviews which took place after Oktay Kilic, 40, of Kent Drive in Harrogate handed himself in to police on August 4, 2014.\nOktay Kilic\nKilic stabbed Knaresborough man, Mark Berney, 44, in a frenzied attack on August 3 2014 after discovering him in a roadside tryst with his wife, Kathleen Kilic.\nIn his police interview Kilic said: \u201cI remember him [Mr Berney] telling me \u2018she doesn\u2019t want you\u2019 then I went with the knife and he was blocking with his hands.\u201d\nHe said: \u201cI was trying to shut him up,\u201d and, \u201cYou say I stabbed him many times but I don\u2019t know how this happened it is darkness.\u201d\nKilic spoke about finding his wife with another man and said: \u201cThat was just horror for me, that was the end of the world for me, I couldn\u2019t cope with it. I didn\u2019t mean to kill him, I didn\u2019t mean to. I didn\u2019t go there to kill him, if I did I would tell you, this is the end of the world for me anyway.\u201d\nHe added: \u201cI lost it, I\u2019m sorry I lost it, I didn\u2019t mean to kill anyone.\u201d\nKilic said in his police interview that when Mrs Killic grabbed him during the attack at Whipley Lane near Ripley, it was as if he \u2018woke up\u2019.\n\u201cI remember how it started and how it finished.\u201d\nHe said: \u201cI meant to hurt him not to kill him, why would I go there with my four and six year old children if I go to kill someone? I wasn\u2019t there to kill anybody.\u201d\nKilic told police he did not take the kitchen knife which was used in the attack with him to the scene of the crime and that it was already in Mrs Kilic\u2019s car, left from a previous family pic nic at Fewston Reservoir.\nKilic\u2019s friend, Aslan Yelsin gave evidence and told the jury he thought the killing was a \u2018crime of passion.\u2019\nMr Yelsin, who has known Kilic since childhood and was best man at his wedding, said Kilic turned up at his doorstep at around 1am on August 4 and said: \u2018Maybe I might have killed somebody.\u2019\nMr Yelsin said: \u201cHe said he used a knife, he told me he saw his wife with another man and he lost control. It was like a crime of passion.\u201d\nThe court also heard how strained the relationship between Mrs Kilic and Kilic had become. Kilic told Detective Sergeant Alex Jackson: \u201cI am not a control freak, I can\u2019t control her. I couldn\u2019t walk away because of the children.\u201d\nHe added: \u201cI was going to move out but then my son started crying and I just couldn\u2019t\u201d\nMr Yelsin had visited the couple\u2019s home a couple of months before the attack to mediate after an argument. Kilic told Mr Yelsin he suspected Mrs Kilic of having an affair, though the couple made up.\nMr Yelsin said: \u201cHe was very much concerned about his marriage, he was a very good father.\u201d\nKilic has pleaded not guilty to murder.

Each memorial headstone will be tested to make sure it's not at risk of falling over and injuring someone.\nA specially trained member of staff will start by doing a visual inspection of the memorial, followed by a hand test. This will involve pressure being applied to the memorial to check for movement. In most cases, there will be no movement and a record will be kept that the memorial has passed the test. If the memorial moves it will fail the test.\nIf the memorial fails the hand test it will be highlighted with caution tape. A member of staff will then contact the registered owner of the grave to inform them that it needs repairing. If there is not active registered owner for the grave the Council will make the memorial safe by lowing by a third.",

        "raw_content": "?Everybody has problems. Nobody goes through life unscathed, and I think if you write about those things, you?re going to touch people,? says Stephen Sondheim in SIx by Sondheim, an intimate and candid look at the life and art of the legendary composer-lyricist. Since his Broadway debut at age 27 as the lyricist for West Side Story, Sondheim has redefined musical theatre over the course of a six-decade career through such groundbreaking works as Company, Sweeney Todd and Sunday in the Park with George.\nDirected by Tony Award-winner and frequent Sondheim collaborator James Lapine, SIx by Sondheim is a highly personal profile of a great American artist as revealed through the creation and performance of six of his iconic songs. Told primarily in Sondheim?s own words, this feature documentary weaves together dozens of interviews with the composer, rarely seen archival material spanning more than half a century (including newly discovered footage of Ethel Merman performing Gypsy) and re-stagings of three songs produced especially for the film.\nThe re-stagings in SIx by Sondheim showcase performances by Broadway and Hollywood stars such as Audra McDonald (Porgy and Bess), Darren Criss (Glee), Jeremy Jordan (Newsies) and America Ferrera (Ugly Betty), interspersed with archival performances of Sondheim standards by stars like Bernadette Peters, Mandy Patinkin, Dean Jones, Yvonne de Carlo and Larry Kert. Blending theatrical and rare interview footage with Sondheim?s candid anecdotes, the film features the songs ?Something?s Coming,? ?Opening Doors,? ?Send in the Clowns,? ?I?m Still Here,? ?Being Alive? and ?Sunday.?\nThe documentary reveals how art and life have been intertwined for Sondheim since childhood, when his mother?s friendship with the family of the legendary librettist and lyricist Oscar Hammerstein II would introduce the young Sondheim to a surrogate father and artistic mentor, ultimately starting him on the path to a career in the theater.\nThe six songs spotlighted:\n?Something?s Coming?: Sondheim got his break writing lyrics for Broadway?s West Side Story, collaborating with composer Leonard Bernstein. As Sondheim explains, they created an opening number that would give Larry Kert, a young performer, the confidence to hold the stage in his first starring Broadway role. Though Sondheim treasured his collaboration with Bernstein, he regarded lyric writing as a stop on the way to his true goal of writing both music and lyrics.\n?Opening Doors?: Sondheim calls this song from Merrily We Roll Along ? about three young writers trying to break into show business ? his most directly autobiographical song. ?I was trying to recapture what I was like when I was 25 and 30 years old,? he says. Jeremy Jordan, Darren Criss, America Ferrera, Jackie Hoffman, Laura Osnes and Sondheim perform ?Opening Doors? in a new segment directed by James Lapine.\n?Send in the Clowns?: Written for Glynis Johns? breathy voice, it became his biggest hit song, taking off two years following the opening of A Little Night Music, after both Judy Collins and Frank Sinatra covered it. Audra McDonald and Will Swenson perform ?Send in the Clowns? in a new segment directed by Autumn de Wilde.\n?I?m Still Here?: Sondheim wrote this tour de force for movie star Yvonne de Carlo during the pre-Broadway Boston tryout of Follies as a last-minute replacement for the song ?Can That Boy Foxtrot!? As he explains, the lyrics were inspired by the life of resilient Hollywood legend Joan Crawford. Jarvis Cocker of the rock band Pulp performs ?I?m Still Here? in a new segment directed by Todd Haynes.\n?Being Alive?: While writing ?Company,? a show about ?the difficulties and joys of marriage,? Sondheim, a self-described loner ?out of habit? since childhood, asked his married friends for comments about their relationships. Dean Jones, the star of the original Broadway production, performs ?Being Alive? in an excerpt from the classic documentary ?Company: Original Cast Album,? directed by D.A. Pennebaker.\n?Sunday?: The song closest to Sondheim?s heart comes from Sunday in the Park with George, inspired by Georges Seurat?s painting ?A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte.? He says that for him part of the profound quality of the Seurat work stems from the fact that the figures depicted don?t know they?ve been immortalized. Sondheim gave his song an ?almost funereal? beat that becomes a triumphant march and builds to the word ?forever.?\nStephen Sondheim has written music and lyrics for more than 20 shows. He won a Pulitzer Prize in Drama for ?Sunday in the Park with George? in 1985, and has received multiple Tony Awards, including a special Tony Award for Lifetime Achievement in Theatre in 2008. In 1990, he won an Oscar\ufffd for Best Music, Original Song for ?Sooner or Later (I Always Get My Man),? from ?Dick Tracy.?t\nDirector James Lapine has collaborated with Stephen Sondheim on several acclaimed shows, writing the book for and directing Sunday in the Park with George, Into the Woods, Passion and Sondheim on Sondheim. He has received three Tony Awards, five Drama Desk Awards and the Pulitzer Prize. Lapine executive producesSIx by Sondheim along with New York magazine?s Frank Rich, a former chief theatre critic for the New York Times and currently an executive producer of the Emmy-winning HBO comedy series Veep.\nSIx by Sondheim is directed by James Lapine; executive producers, James Lapine and Frank Rich; produced by Liz Stanton; edited by Miky Wolf.

We sell great stuff\nBeing an independent, real shop rather than an online warehouse, we get to choose what we stock. And we only stock the things that we truly believe in, that we would be happy to ride and use ourselves. If we don\u2019t like something, then we won\u2019t just not sell it to you, we won\u2019t even have it in the shop, or on the website.\nThis means you can shop from a concise range of well considered products, with the reassurance that our six committed members of staff would recommend each and every one to you.\n2. We\u2019ll give you honest advice\nWe like to get to know our customers, and like you to get to know us. This means that we\u2019re all personally accountable for the advice we give, and the things we sell. No one works to commission, and we never hard sell.\nWe respect the position of trust we\u2019re in, so if you ask for our advice on what bike to buy, we won\u2019t try to sell you the most expensive one, or the one that we\u2019ve accidentally overstocked on, it\u2019ll be one criteria only that we use - the one that\u2019s best for you.\n3. We know what we\u2019re talking about (most of the time)\nHonest advice isn\u2019t much use though if it\u2019s not any good. Thankfully, we\u2019re all passionate about bikes; riding them, selling them, and fixing them. We take product knowledge very seriously, and invest a lot of time learning about our products, and trying them ourselves (our favourite part of the job!), so we can give you the best advice possible.\nJust as importantly though, we know when we don\u2019t know. So if you ask us something we can\u2019t answer, we won\u2019t make something up, we\u2019ll tell you we don\u2019t know, and then we\u2019ll take the time to do some research and find out for you.\nAnd it doesn\u2019t stop when your card goes through the machine; we pride ourselves in our after-sales service. We have a fully functioning bike service and repair workshop to keep your bike running smoothly, as well as a bike fit service to keep you running smoothly, and most importantly we\u2019re always on hand to help with follow up advice and support.\nSo there\u2019s our pitch, if those sound like the sort of things in a shop that are important to you too, then give us a visit, we could be a perfect match!\nAnd if that's not enough, here are three more reasons to buy a bike from us.\nDan, Jamie, Nick, Dean, Euan, Archie, Alistair - The Head For The Hills Team",

        "raw_content": "Study Hints that Ancient Earth Made Its Own Water\u2014Geologically\nby HERITAGEDAILY December 17, 2014 December 27, 2015 0234\nA new study is helping to answer a longstanding question that has recently moved to the forefront of earth science: Did our planet make its own water through geologic processes, or did water come to us via icy comets from the far reaches of the solar system?\nThe answer is likely \u201cboth,\u201d according to researchers at The Ohio State University\u2014 and the same amount of water that currently fills the Pacific Ocean could be buried deep inside the planet right now.\nAt the American Geophysical Union (AGU) meeting on Wednesday, Dec. 17, they report the discovery of a previously unknown geochemical pathway by which the Earth can sequester water in its interior for billions of years and still release small amounts to the surface via plate tectonics, feeding our oceans from within.\nIn trying to understand the formation of the early Earth, some researchers have suggested that the planet was dry and inhospitable to life until icy comets pelted the earth and deposited water on the surface.\nWendy Panero, associate professor of earth sciences at Ohio State, and doctoral student Jeff Pigott are pursuing a different hypothesis: that Earth was formed with entire oceans of water in its interior, and has been continuously supplying water to the surface via plate tectonics ever since.\nResearchers have long accepted that the mantle contains some water, but how much water is a mystery. And, if some geological mechanism has been supplying water to the surface all this time, wouldn\u2019t the mantle have run out of water by now?\nBecause there\u2019s no way to directly study deep mantle rocks, Panero and Pigott are probing the question with high-pressure physics experiments and computer calculations.\n\u201cWhen we look into the origins of water on Earth, what we\u2019re really asking is, why are we so different than all the other planets?\u201d Panero said. \u201cIn this solar system, Earth is unique because we have liquid water on the surface. We\u2019re also the only planet with active plate tectonics. Maybe this water in the mantle is key to plate tectonics, and that\u2019s part of what makes Earth habitable.\u201d\nThis plate tectonics diagram from the Byrd Polar and Climate Research Center shows how mantle circulation delivers new rock to the crust via mid-ocean ridges. New research suggests that mantle circulation also delivers water to the oceans.\nCentral to the study is the idea that rocks that appear dry to the human eye can actually contain water\u2014in the form of hydrogen atoms trapped inside natural voids and crystal defects. Oxygen is plentiful in minerals, so when a mineral contains some hydrogen, certain chemical reactions can free the hydrogen to bond with the oxygen and make water.\nStray atoms of hydrogen could make up only a tiny fraction of mantle rock, the researchers explained. Given that the mantle is more than 80 percent of the planet\u2019s total volume, however, those stray atoms add up to a lot of potential water.\nIn a lab at Ohio State, the researchers compress different minerals that are common to the mantle and subject them to high pressures and temperatures using a diamond anvil cell\u2014a device that squeezes a tiny sample of material between two diamonds and heats it with a laser\u2014to simulate conditions in the deep Earth. They examine how the minerals\u2019 crystal structures change as they are compressed, and use that information to gauge the minerals\u2019 relative capacities for storing hydrogen. Then, they extend their experimental results using computer calculations to uncover the geochemical processes that would enable these minerals to rise through the mantle to the surface\u2014a necessary condition for water to escape into the oceans.\nIn a paper now submitted to a peer-reviewed academic journal, they reported their recent tests of the mineral bridgmanite, a high-pressure form of olivine. While bridgmanite is the most abundant mineral in the lower mantle, they found that it contains too little hydrogen to play an important role in Earth\u2019s water supply.\nAnother research group recently found that ringwoodite, another form of olivine, does contain enough hydrogen to make it a good candidate for deep-earth water storage. So Panero and Pigott focused their study on the depth where ringwoodite is found\u2014a place 325-500 miles below the surface that researchers call the \u201ctransition zone\u201d\u2014as the most likely region that can hold a planet\u2019s worth of water. From there, the same convection of mantle rock that produces plate tectonics could carry the water to the surface.\nOne problem: If all the water in ringwoodite is continually drained to the surface via plate tectonics, how could the planet hold any in reserve?\nFor the research presented at AGU, Panero and Pigott performed new computer calculations of the geochemistry in the lowest portion of the mantle, some 500 miles deep and more. There, another mineral, garnet, emerged as a likely water-carrier\u2014a go-between that could deliver some of the water from ringwoodite down into the otherwise dry lower mantle.\nIf this scenario is accurate, the Earth may today hold half as much water in its depths as is currently flowing in oceans on the surface, Panero said\u2014an amount that would approximately equal the volume of the Pacific Ocean. This water is continuously cycled through the transition zone as a result of plate tectonics.\n\u201cOne way to look at this research is that we\u2019re putting constraints on the amount of water that could be down there,\u201d Pigott added.\nPanero called the complex relationship between plate tectonics and surface water \u201cone of the great mysteries in the geosciences.\u201d But this new study supports researchers\u2019 growing suspicion that mantle convection somehow regulates the amount of water in the oceans. It also vastly expands the timeline for Earth\u2019s water cycle.\n\u201cIf all of the Earth\u2019s water is on the surface, that gives us one interpretation of the water cycle, where we can think of water cycling from oceans into the atmosphere and into the groundwater over millions of years,\u201d she said. \u201cBut if mantle circulation is also part of the water cycle, the total cycle time for our planet\u2019s water has to be billions of years.\u201d\nGeologygeology newsgeology press releasesShare0\nTooth loss in birds occurred about 116 million years ago\nLarge volcanic eruption may have caused the first mass extinction\nStudy suggests Earth could have supported continental crust, life earlier than thought\nHeritageDaily June 6, 2018 July 11, 2018\n180-million-year-old rocks lend insight into Earth\u2019s most powerful earthquakes\nToxic pigment discovered in Inca sacrificial burial\nSantorini eruption: new theory says \u2018pyroclastic flows\u2019 caused devastating Bronze Age tsunamis",

        "raw_content": "22nd June 2018 | Blog | No Comment\nDavid Temple MBE has been Musical Director for Crouch End Festival Chorus since 1984 and for Hertfordshire Chorus since 2000. But his musical life started long before that.\n\u2018My conducting adventure all began 40 years ago on July 1st 1978. I had been with the London Philharmonic Choir for 5 years and wanted to have a go at waving the baton.\u2019\nDavid was a teacher at Goldbeaters Primary School and had identified a need for investment in musical instruments. He decided to put on a concert to raise money towards this cause. He chose the date, booked a slot at St Alphage\u2019s Church in Burnt Oak and set about finding performers.\n\u2018I had already used my long-suffering school pupils as guinea pigs and, having provoked some sort of response from them, I collared some London Philharmonic Choir singers in the pub and asked if they would sing for me. To my joy and surprise they said that they would!\u2019\nThe concert was for choir and organ. David decided to include the school\u2019s Recorder Consort, who were called upon to play some Byrd and Bach.\nAs concert day approached David started to experience his first case of \u2018Conductor\u2019s Anxiety\u2019.\n\u2018Because of nerves, I was unbearable to live with for many days either side of the concert.\u2019\nThe organ in the church was a little rickety and it was only when the 50 strong choir burst in with Handel\u2019s Zadok the Priest that the audience knew this might be worth listening to. The programme included Vivaldi\u2019s Gloria as the main work and a performance of Mozart\u2019s Ave Verum Corpus.\nThe children performed brilliantly and David was very proud.\n\u2018Those children will now be around 50 years old and I do wonder how their lives panned out and if they remember the event.\nDavid recently realised that the anniversary of his first foray into the world of conducting coincides with an upcoming concert. Crouch End Festival Chorus, the choir that David helped to found in 1984, will perform Stravinsky Les Noces and Orff\u2019s Carmina Burana at the Queen Elizabeth Hall at 3pm on July 1st 2018.\nThe Chorus will be joined by primary school children which seems fitting.\n\u2018In general, I am someone who rarely looks back but on this occasion, I am proud to celebrate this anniversary and feel so blessed that I am loving my music-making more than ever! I would like to dedicate the concert to all who have performed with me over these past 40 years\u2019\nDetails for the concert are here:\nhttps://www.southbankcentre.co.uk/whats-on/122062-stravinsky-les-noces-english-and-orff-carmina-burana-2018\nConductingCrouch End Festival ChorusDavid TempleHertfordshire Chorus",

To achieve this they needed better knowledge management, especially of repair data, in real time.\nCritical production repair data was being collected in a variety of ways in a host of different data systems. No standard processes were in place that prescribed or enforced what to do with data. Time to capture data was too high, and the data that was captured was not used effectively because it was not timely or accessible.\nThe leadership team wanted to establish a company-wide, user-friendly database that would further their company\u2019s evolution into a data-driven, fix-to-root-cause culture. They knew they would have to refine and improve defect categorization, and define processes to enforce the use of data to investigate, resolve to root cause, and monitor quality.\nWorking in concert with the customer\u2019s engineers, we built a comprehensive, integrated, data collection system that captures repair data from any one of eleven processes, in real time. Once captured, all data resides in GainSeeker Suite in a single, central data repository. There it is accessible to all staff for tracking defect levels (DPMO) over time, and for automated drill down Pareto analysis.\nThe initial investment was recouped in less than three months (according to the CFO), with a ROI after seven months of 171%. Impressively, only a small portion (2%) came from reducing the cost of data collection. Ninety-eight percent of the return came from increased throughput and improved first pass yield.\nBy making repair data more accessible, more visible, and more timely, the company was able to reach previously unimagined yield levels.\nOpen the full case study in a new window",

        "raw_content": "Informed consent at the nexus of health and human rights, as reported by Special Rapporteur Anand Grover to the UN General Assembly\nIn his recent report for the United Nations General Assembly, Special Rapporteur Anand Grover emphasizes that informed consent should be a fundamental practice in a rights-based approach to health. He describes informed consent as \u201cnot mere acceptance of medical intervention, but a voluntary and sufficiently informed decision, protecting the right of the patient to be involved in medical decision-making, and assigning associated duties and obligations to health-care providers. Its ethical and legal normative justifications stem from its promotion of patient autonomy, self-determination, bodily integrity and well-being.\u201d\nInformed consent as a compulsory health practice and a categorical human right seems straightforward enough. But not everyone agrees. Informed consent is consistently recognized and protected in the context of law practice and legal discussions, Grover contends, but in health settings, where clinical practitioners and health researchers face innumerable and nuanced barriers to carrying out uniform standards of care, the application of informed consent can lack regulation and consistency. These barriers are built from what he calls \u201cstructural inequalities\u201d and \u201cthe imbalance of power, experience and trust\u201d in doctor-patient and researcher-subject relationships.\nThe varied \u2014 and constantly varying \u2014 policies that shape health care delivery and clinical trial procedures also undermine and cloud the meaning of informed consent, most notably in the case of HIV/AIDS testing. The Centers for Disease Control recommends voluntary HIV screening for every individual who enters a health care setting in the US. The patients are notified that the test will be carried out, but they do not need to sign a separate written consent form, and they are able to decline testing; this is known in medical practice as \u201copt-out\u201d testing and means that the test takes place unless the patient explicitly chooses to \u201copt out\u201d of this otherwise \u201croutine\u201d procedure. Proponents of this type of voluntary but less formal screening method argue that normalizing the test decreases testing stigma (because there is no need during a clinic visit to request the procedure), makes people aware of their diagnoses sooner, and, through prompt testing and treatment, will in time quell the spread of the disease.\nHowever, proponents of formal informed consent argue that a positive HIV/AIDS status disclosed through opt-out or even involuntary screening can cause other problems: the patient may face faulty referral and support services, lack of information, and stigma. These potential consequences fall particularly hard on vulnerable or high-risk populations who seek treatment at resource-constrained clinics. Diagnosed as HIV-positive through the \u201copt-out\u201d method in a clinic lacking supportive services, the patient may not be prepared emotionally or educated well enough to make autonomous and optimal treatment decisions. This is a structural infringement on their right to health, not a reflection of their personal deficiencies. With adequate resources after opt-out testing, the patient stands to better understand his or her diagnosis and treatment options and make decisions with less fear of stigma and alienation.\nThe provision and protection of informed consent is essential for certain groups who face increased vulnerability due to economic, social, and cultural factors. These groups include children, elderly persons, women, ethnic minorities, indigenous peoples, persons with disabilities, persons living with HIV/AIDS, persons deprived of liberty, sex workers, and persons who use drugs. As Mr. Grover points out, \u201cStructural inequalities exacerbated by stigma and discrimination result in individuals from certain groups being disproportionately vulnerable to having informed consent compromised.\u201d Ultimately, those in most need of informed consent are often the ones deprived of it.\nGuaranteeing and monitoring the practice of informed consent in health care settings is a duty of the State and of third parties seeking to uphold right-to-health principles. The dissemination and accessibility of accurate information, the provision of supportive services such as counseling, and the development of targeted policies are some of the ways in which States can ensure that patients gain the maximum benefit from informed consent. Practitioners and researchers at the front line of delivering care and carrying out studies are also accountable for prioritizing informed consent and providing this kind of follow-up support.\nOptimal mental and physical health depends on the recognition and protection of integrity in all phases of care and research. Realizing the right to health calls for protecting the \u201cautonomy, self-determination and human dignity\u201d of all parties in doctor-patient or researcher-subject relationships.\nHuman Rights Council resolution 6/29\nPrevious PostPrevious HIV treatment plans inadequate in South African prisons\nNext PostNext South Africa revives commitment to combating AIDS",

(Hardcover)\nBy Susan G. Purdy\nDo your cakes collapse, souffl\u00e9s slump, cookies crumble, and fruit pies fail? For those living at high altitude, baking can be a challenge at best, or a total disaster. More than thirty-four of the fifty United States, plus many Canadian regions, have cities and towns at altitudes of more than 2,500 feet, yet there are hardly any cookbooks that address the special needs of these local bakers. Until now. Award-winning cookbook author Susan G. Purdy has finally written the first-ever foolproof guide to high-altitude baking.\nPurdy has actually \"gone there and done that,\" staying as long as it took to bake these recipes to perfection at five different locations -- and elevations -- across thecountry. In Pie in the Sky, Purdy leaves behind old conversion tables, disproves many oft-repeated calculations and adjustments, and presents reliable recipes in their entirety for each altitude. She takes out the tinkering and guarantees success at any height.\nIn addition, she explains the hows and whys, gives tips and hints for problems specific to every altitude, and generally demystifies the subject of atmospheric obstacles that cause favorite recipes to flop. Whether they live in the eastern mountains or the far west, in Boston, Massachusetts; Boone, North Carolina; or Santa Fe, New Mexico; home bakers as well as experienced chefs will love the wide range of easy-to-make treats including Mile-High Lemon Meringue Pie, Coconut Cake with Coconut Icing, Paradise Peak Chocolate Souffl\u00e9, Vail Lemon-Poppy Seed Loaf, Celestial Challah, and Sour Cream Streusel Coffee Cake.\nEvery recipe was tested at sea level (Connecticut), 3,000 feet (North Carolina and Virginia), 5,000 feet (Idaho and Colorado), 7,000 feet (New Mexico), and 10,000 feet (Colorado) and can be used at these elevations or any points in between.\nSusan G. Purdy, CCP, is a well-known, widely traveled baking teacher, journalist, and author of thirty books, including twelve cookbooks. Her most recent works are The Perfect Cake and The Perfect Pie, as well as the IACP/Julia Child Cookbook Award-winning Have Your Cake and Ear It, Too.\nCooking / Courses & Dishes / Pastry",

        "raw_content": "An Easter trip to the City of Light\nFOURTEEN YEAR 10 PUPILS WENT ON A PARISIAN PILGRIMAGE THIS EASTER\nNothing says Paris in the spring like torrential rain and 10-degree temperatures. However, our intrepid group of fourteen Year 10s were undeterred by the inclement conditions as they sallied forth daily onto the streets of Paris, with undampened enthusiasm, despite the moisture in the air. The pupils taking part in this Easter\u2019s exchange trip to Paris were thrilled to be spending time with their exchange partners, who had already become firm friends thanks to the success of their visit to London in the first half of the Lent term. The French families were certainly keen to match the English families\u2019 hospitality and the weekend saw trips to Disneyland, shopping expeditions on the Champs Elys\u00e9es, art exhibitions at the Pompidou Centre, and much more.\nDay One of our trip saw us making every tourist\u2019s first Parisian pilgrimage: we climbed the Eiffel Tower, to enjoy spectacular, if rather grey, views of the City of Light. Once at ground level again we embarked upon a boat trip along the Seine, taking in some of the most spectacular architectural treasures of the city, including le Mus\u00e9e d\u2019Orsay, les Invalides, le Grand Palais, le Petit Palais, le Mus\u00e9e du Louvre, Notre Dame de Paris and much more! Our first day culminated in a guided tour of the Mus\u00e9e de l\u2019Orangerie. Situated in the Tuilerie Gardens, the museum that houses Monet\u2019s Waterlilies and an astonishing collection of Impressionist works was the perfect introduction to Paris\u2019s cultural offerings. Subsequent days saw us taking in another exceptional view as we ascended the 210-metre Tour Montparnasse (the highlight being its view of the Eiffel Tower, as well as some precious moments of rare sunshine!), climbing the steps up to le Sacr\u00e9 Coeur and exploring the artists\u2019 quarter of Montmartre, and a full day\u2019s discovery of the palace and gardens of Versailles. Another highlight was a Parisian local\u2019s recommendation of a surprisingly trendy and authentic restaurant in Pigalle. Lunch in the heart of Paris\u2019s red-light district, saw our pupils valiantly making sure they were fed, despite their teachers\u2019 request to the staff that the children get no food or drink unless they asked for it in French.

        "raw_content": "The Predictive Role of Inflammatory Biomarkers in Atrial Fibrillation as Seen through Neutrophil-Lymphocyte Ratio Mirror\nFeliciano Chanana Paquissi\nDepartment of Medicine, Cl\u00ednica Girassol, Luanda, Angola\nAcademic Editor: Mark Molloy\nCopyright \u00a9 2016 Feliciano Chanana Paquissi. This is an open access article distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited.\nAtrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia and is responsible for significant disease burden worldwide. Current evidence has suggested that systemic inflammatory response plays a crucial role in the initiation, maintenance, and progression of AF. So, recent efforts have been directed in search of measurable inflammatory biomarkers as additional tools in severity and prognosis assessment of AF. A simple, and easily obtainable, inflammatory marker is the neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), which has shown good performance in preliminary studies as a potential prognostic biomarker in patients with AF. In this work, we performed a thorough review of clinical studies that evaluated the role of C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and NLR as predictors of outcomes in AF. We gave a particular emphasis on the NLR because it is a simpler, widely available, and inexpensive biomarker.\nAtrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia, which in 2010 was estimated to affect about 33.5 million individuals in the world [1], with a prevalence around 2.3\u20133.4% among adults [2], and may reach 9% in those aged over 80 years [3]. Studies point to an increase in both incidence and prevalence [1, 4, 5], as well as the attributable mortality [1, 5], so that between 1990 and 2013 AF was the factor with the greatest relative increase in the burden of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) [5]. Future projections predict a 2-fold increase in the number of cases of AF in 2050 [3]. The AF is associated with significant morbidity and mortality, increasing the risk of stroke and death from all causes [6, 7].\nRecent investigations have registered significant advances in the understanding of the pathogenic mechanisms underlying AF [8, 9]. One of the most explored mechanisms and that has gained more and more space in recent years is the inflammatory response [10, 11]. The literature has emphasized the role of inflammation in the initiation, maintenance, and progression of AF [8, 12, 13]. Several inflammatory biomarkers, as C-reactive protein (CRP) and interleukins, have been associated with the occurrence of AF and its prognosis, including vascular events [10, 14\u201316]. In fact, the incidence of AF is increased in other situations that share significant systemic inflammatory response such as nonalcoholic fatty liver disease [17] and metabolic syndrome [18, 19], suggesting a role of inflammation as a mediator between atrial fibrillation and these situations.\nAmong the inflammatory biomarkers, the neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), defined as the ratio of absolute counts of neutrophils and lymphocytes, has emerged recently as effective outcomes predictor in atrial fibrillation [20, 21], a role also demonstrated for ischemic heart disease and stroke [22\u201324]. NLR is a simple, inexpensive, and widely available biomarker and has been shown to be a good predictor of atrial arrhythmias that reflects the role of unbalanced white cells (with the predominance of activated neutrophils) in arrhythmogenesis [8, 9, 25].\nMultiple inflammatory markers have been studied as predictors of outcomes in AF, from those with potential direct involvement in the pathogenesis, such as IL-6 and NLR [11, 26], and others only as a reflection of underlying immune responses, but apparently without direct participation as CRP [27]. There are those that are being more used in research contexts than in clinical practice. In this paper, we performed a thorough review of clinical studies focusing on CRP, IL-6, and NLR, as they are more reliable in clinical practice, with particular emphasis on the NLR because it is simpler, more widely available, and inexpensive.\n2. Overview of Inflammatory Biomarkers in Atrial Fibrillation\nSeveral studies have demonstrated the association between inflammatory markers and the incidence, severity, response to treatment, and prognosis in AF [14\u201316, 28]. An analysis of a large study with 17,120 participants, without prior history of arrhythmia, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), was associated with a 36% increase in the risk of developing AF (hazard ratio [HR]: 1.37, -trend < 0.01) for each increasing tertile above baseline, with persistently high risk, comparing the highest to the lowest hs-CRP tertile, even after adjustment for potential confounders (hazard ratio [HR] 1.96; ) [29]. In other studies in patients with AF, CRP was a significant predictor of stroke [14, 30] and peripheral embolism [31]. In treated patients who underwent electrical cardioversion, a high hs-CRP was an independent predictor of AF recurrence even after adjusting for confounders variables [32, 33]. In another study following patients after catheter ablation, a high hs-CRP was an independent predictor of recurrence () during a median follow-up of 15 months [15]. The contribution of inflammation in atrial activity seems to begin early, as demonstrated in a study where a high CRP was an independent risk factor for spontaneous contrast in transesophageal echocardiography [34]. This reflects that electromechanical impairment begins before any electrocardiographic visible dysrhythmia.\nOther inflammatories biomarkers associated with AF and its progression are interleukin-6 (IL-6) [35] and interleukin-18 [36]. In one of these studies, with 3,762 adults with chronic kidney disease, a high plasma IL-6 level was associated with AF at baseline (Odds Ratio [OR], 1.61; ) and predicted new-onset AF (OR, 1.25; ) during a mean follow-up of 3.7 years [35]. In a study with patient in oral anticoagulation for AF, a high-sensitivity interleukin-6 (hsIL6) was a predictor of long-term cardiovascular events (HR 1.97, ) and all-cause mortality (HR 2.48, ) [37]; and adding hsIL6 to the clinical risk scores (CHADS2 and CHA2DS2-VASc) improved the discrimination index value for prediction of long-term cardiovascular events and death [37]. In another study with rhythm control strategy, IL-6 and CRP were significantly higher in those with AF recurrence than in those maintaining sinus rhythm (mean IL-6: 1.84 versus 1.19, ; CRP: 1.24 versus 0.59, ) [38]. Table 1 summarizes the clinical studies that have assessed the role of general inflammatory biomarkers in AF.\nTable 1: Clinical studies on the predictive value of inflammatory biomarkers (other than NLR) in atrial fibrillation (chronological order).\n3. The Particular Role of Neutrophil-Lymphocyte Ratio as a Predictive Biomarker in Atrial Fibrillation\n3.1. Incidence and Prevalence\nA high NLR is associated with increased incidence of AF, as was evident in a prospective cohort, with 275 patients who underwent nonemergency coronary artery bypass grafting, where the group with postoperative AF had higher preoperative NLR (median 3.0 versus 2.4, ) [21]. These findings were also evident in a study with patients undergoing coronary angiography, with stent placement, for acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction, where those who developed AF had higher postcatheterization NLRs at 48 hours (median 5.23 versus 3.00, ) and 96 hours (median 4.67 versus 3.56, ) [59], suggesting an inflammatory contribution to new-onset postprocedural AF. In another study with diabetic patients, NLR was significantly higher in those with AF than in the AF-free group (mean versus , ) and was an independent risk factor for AF (OR 3.486, ) using 2.38 as cut-off [60].\n3.2. Severity and Incidence of Stroke\nA high NLR not only predicts higher incidence of AF but also is a predictor of disease severity and risk of stroke [61, 62]. In a study with 309 patients with nonvalvular AF, a high NLR (>2.59) was an independent risk factor for the presence of left atrial thrombus on transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) (OR 1.59; ) [61]. In another study with TEE, a high NLR (>2.92) was a predictor of reduced (<10\u2009cm/sec) left atrial appendage wall velocity (LAAWV) in patients with paroxysmal AF [63]. A large retrospective cohort including 32.912 patients with AF showed that each increase in NLR quartile above the lowest was associated with a significant increase in risk of stroke with HRs of 1.11 (0.91\u20131.35), 1.25 (1.03\u20131.51), and 1.56 (1.29\u20131.88) for the second, third, and highest quartiles, respectively; and adding NLR to CHA2DS2-VASc risk score improved the accuracy for prediction of stroke [62]. Even in those in oral anticoagulation, a high NLR level was a predictor of stroke [20].\n3.3. Treatment Response and Mortality\nA high NLR is also a predictor of poor response to treatment as shown in a study, where it predicted AF recurrence after successful cardioversion with amiodarone [64]. In another study with 251 patients with symptomatic AF who underwent cryoablation, a high preablation NLR (>3.15) was a predictor of postprocedural disease recurrence (HR 2.15, 95% CI 1.70 to 2.73, ) [65]. Regarding mortality, no specific study relating NLR and increased mortality in patients with AF was found. However, a high NLR was an independent predictor of short- and long-term mortality in patients with stroke in general (irrespective of being cardioembolic or atherosclerotic) [24, 66, 67]. Table 2 summarizes the clinical studies that have assessed the role of NLR as a prognostic biomarker in AF.\nTable 2: Clinical studies on the predictive value of the neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio as a biomarker in atrial fibrillation.\n4. Underlying Mechanisms, Pathways, and Relationship between Biomarkers in AF\nIn relation to the underlying mechanisms, despite the consistency of the studies regarding the epidemiological association between inflammation and AF, there is still a substantial scarcity of data in basic sciences giving the pathophysiologic background to this link. In the case of the CRP, an acute phase protein, it seems to be more a marker of underlying immune responses than an active participant in the pathogenesis of the disease. This is reinforced by the fact that genetic polymorphisms that are associated with the double increase in CRP showed no significant association with the AF [27]. On the other hand, multiple factors interfere with CRP that would be very difficult to control in primary studies, to evaluate possible pathophysiological nexus. For this reason, we focus our description more on those related to NLR, and IL-6, which are more than simple reflectors, seeming to be actively involved in the pathogenesis of AF.\nNeutrophil-lymphocyte ratio is a derived marker, expressing an imbalance in leukocytes with the dominance of neutrophils over lymphocytes, which may be only the \u201ctip of the iceberg\u201d of a deeper imbalance in the immunologic response. This seems particularly true from the observation that a high NLR is associated with the excessive activation of interleukin-17 (IL-17) axis in AF [26], which is a cytokine produced mainly by T-helper 17 (Th17) a subset of T-helper cells. In fact, the differentiation of Th17 cells from na\u00efve T cells is mediated largely by IL-6 [73\u201375], a cytokine produced mainly by macrophages, which are neutrophils infiltrating tissues. So, IL-6 would induce, at T-helper cells level, the polarization of the differentiation favoring the effectors Th17 cells over the regulatory T (Treg) cells [76]. Th17 cells produce IL-17 that, among other functions, is responsible for the increase in fibrosis, which is a crucial component in AF [77\u201380]. It is interesting that those diseases that have the IL-17 as a cornerstone of its pathophysiology, like psoriasis, or with significant increase of its levels such as nonalcoholic fatty liver disease and metabolic syndrome are associated with increased incidence of AF [17, 19, 81\u201383], suggesting a role of this cytokine as a mediator between AF and these clinical conditions.\nThe IL-17 is also associated with the upregulation of transforming growth factor beta (TGF-\u03b2) signaling pathways [84], another potent promoter of atrial fibrosis and consequent AF [85\u201387]. In addition, IL-17 stimulates the production of more proinflammatory cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor- (TNF-) \u03b1 and IL-6 [88, 89] and regulates tissue infiltration by neutrophils and myocyte apoptosis, which can start and engage various other pathophysiological pathways including oxidative stress and hypercoagulability [90\u201392]. IL-17 induces the production of IL-6, a potent inductor of IL-17 synthesis, occurring in this way, a refeeding on the axis [73, 74].\nThe IL-6, as we described, plays a critical role in the regulation of IL-17 axis [73, 75]. IL-6, together with IL-23, induces the differentiation of Th17 cells from na\u00efve T cells, at the same time that inhibits TGF-beta-induced Treg differentiation, favoring, in this way, the T17/Treg imbalance [73, 74, 76]. There is still a significant gap between the epidemiological evidence of inflammation in AF and the current understanding of underlying physiopathological basis. The clear understanding of this association is still an object of future studies from basic science to clinical practice level.\n5. Concerns and Limitations of the Use of Inflammatory Biomarkers in AF\nThe main concerns and doubts that arises from the potential use of inflammatory biomarkers in AF is about the additional value of using a panel of two or more biomarkers in predicting AF outcomes than the isolated use, and if there is a superiority of a biomarker in relation to others in AF. No primary study has evaluated the additional value of two or more biomarkers in comparison with the isolated use. Even studies that studied the correlation between biomarkers [11, 14, 38] did not evaluate the additive effect of them to predict outcomes. Despite this gap, it is very likely that in clinical practice a panel of 2 biomarkers or more may be better than the isolated use of one, for predicting AF-related outcomes. So, the evaluation of the additive effect of combined use should be a subject for future studies. On the other hand, the primary studies are very controversial about the superiority of a biomarker in relation to others. So, in light of the current literature, there are no sufficient data to support such point, highlighting only that NLR is more easily accessible and inexpensive than other biomarkers as hs-CRP and IL-6.\n6. Conclusion and Future Directions\nThe review of the available evidence shows that inflammatory biomarkers such as IL-6, IL-17, and NLR have a crucial role in the pathogenesis of AF. They represent an additional, noninvasive tool, with good performance, to predict new-onset disease, persistence, treatment response, recurrence, the risk of complications, and mortality in AF. The available evidence suggests that NLR, a simpler, widely available, and inexpensive biomarker, is a predictor of incidence, treatment success, recurrence, and thromboembolic complications.\nNext studies should be addressed to clarify the underlying mechanisms in AF, to establish the additional value of using a panel of two or more biomarkers in predicting AF outcomes, to evaluate the superiority of a biomarker in relation to others, and to test the value of different biomarkers in different situations in the setting of AF.\nThe author declares no conflict of interests.\nS.

HT reports.\nHDFC Standard Life \u2014 now renamed HDFC Life \u2014 is planning to go public sometime next year to become the first Indian insurance company to list on the stock exchanges.\nThe company, a joint venture between mortgage lender HDFC and UK\u2019s Standard Life, is waiting for an enabling legal change expected before that.\nDeepak Parekh, HDFC\u2019s chairman, told reporters on Tuesday at an event to mark its rebranding that an insurance bill which would allow Indian companies to enhance foreign stakes from the current 26% to 49% is expected to be passed early next year.\nThe demand for higher access to overseas insurance firms is one of the key demands of the US and figured in talks during President Barack Obama\u2019s visit to India this week.\n\u201cThe bill is pending in the parliament and discussions are in process. I am quite hopeful that sometime early next year it will come through,\u201d said Parekh .\nHe said he was clear on listing the firm that has completed 10 years.\n\u201cWe are making preparations for an IPO but we can not go further unless the bill is passed by the parliament as foreign investors would be eligible to buy only if the cap is increased to 49%,\u201d said Parekh.\nStandard Life\u2019s chairman, Gerry Grimstone, said the bill would aid the \u201cmodernization\u201d of India\u2019s insurance laws.\nThe Securities and Exchange Board of India recently gave its go-ahead to public issues by insurance companies.\nParekh said the Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority (IRDA) will also soon come out with the IPO guidelines for insurance companies.\nParekh also told reporters that over the next six months HDFC will infuse R50 crore in HDFC Standard Life. It also plans to infuse R100 crore into the insurance company in the next fiscal year.\nAs the insurance sector has witnessed a number of regulatory changes over the past few months, the HDFC Chairman expressed his concern over the pace of the change.\n\u201cThe changes are good for the industry in the longer run and the only concern was that the introduction of these changes was little too fast and it takes a lot of management time to move from existing system to a new system,\u201d Parekh said.",

        "raw_content": "CWT Book Review: Starving the South\nStarving the South: How the North Won the Civil War\nby Andrew F. Smith, St. Martin\u2019s Press\nUnlike the Midwest, which produced huge quantities of wheat and meat in the 1860s, Southern plantation owners focused mostly on cotton and tobacco. When Union forces in the West seized Fort Henry, Fort Donelson and Nashville, Confederates faced widespread starvation. The situation only worsened after the fall of Vicksburg and Port Hudson severed access to cattle trails from Texas.\nIn Starving the South, Andrew Smith looks at the influence of food, famine and the lack of supplies on the Confederacy\u2019s ultimate defeat. He examines, for example, the strange trade developed in February 1865, in which agents exchanged cotton bolls for bacon by using Canada, the Bermuda Islands and Nassau, in the Bahamas, as intermediaries. He also sheds light on Ulysses Grant\u2019s reaction to such clandestine trading by sutlers in his own department in 1862. Grant singled out Jews for that transgression in his notorious General Orders No. 11.\nAfter the Rebels won at First Manassas in July 1861, a food shortage was a major reason they could not follow up and march on Washington. In 1864 the absence of soldiers who had dispersed to find food for Jubal Early\u2019s army contributed to its destruction at the hands of Phil Sheridan.\nStarving the South provides an unusual perspective that\u2019s likely to whet the appetite of Civil War and general history enthusiasts who may be tired of the same old diet.\nAmerica's Civil War, Book Reviews, Civil War Times, Food Culture, Strategy",

        "raw_content": "They\u2019re Called Killing Grounds for a Reason: February/March 2009\n2/27/2009 \u2022 CWT Today\nDoes the ground where soldiers are fighting have any real bearing on the number of casualties they take? During a 10-year study of the geomorphology of Civil War battlefields, two geologists found that in some cases it did.\nAnalyzing the action at Sharpsburg, Md., and several other sites, Radford University\u2019s Robert Whisonant and Judy Ehlen discovered that the shape of the land could actually put soldiers more at risk in some areas of a given battle than in others. They already knew that flat, open land was pretty much guaranteed to be hell for advancing troops and that rough, high terrain created good hiding places for infantry and artillery, but according to a story in EARTH magazine, their research showed how differences in geological composition of those areas contributed to differences in the numbers of casualties incurred in different sites.\n\u201cWe\u2019re not really contributing new historical information,\u201d Whisonant explained. \u201cWe\u2019re taking known history and trying to give it more context.\u201d\nSharpsburg, also known as Antietam, was the single bloodiest one-day battle in the war, with more than 23,000 soldiers killed, wounded or missing. The troops that day had another common enemy besides bullets, however: carbonate rock. Millions of years of rain will reduce soft carbonate rock to relatively flat, open terrain. The battle\u2019s notorious Cornfield, which is located on a deposit of almost pure limestone, is an example of how carbonate rock can become a relatively smooth surface, good for farming. Casualties there were at least three times higher than in other parts of the battlefield. When carbonate rock is mixed with harder dolomite and slate, the result of weathering is different. That is the composition of the land near Burnside Bridge, where the limestone had dissolved away, leaving an uneven terrain with hills and ridges that provided good hiding places. Casualties were consequently lower in that area.\nThe geologists presented their conclusions in a talk, \u201cNo Place To Run, No place To Hide,\u201d at a meeting of the Geological Society of America, Soil Science Society of America, American Society of Agronomy and Gulf Coast Association of Geographical Societies.\nArmy Loans Artifacts to Kentucky Museum\nThe U.S. Army has become a partner in the new Battle of Richmond Visitors & History Center in Richmond, Ky. The Blue Grass Army Depot occupies a large section of the 6-by-8-mile battle\u00adfield, where fighting between Maj. Gen. William \u201cBull\u201d Nelson\u2019s Federals and Maj. Gen. E. Kirby Smith\u2019s Confederates occurred on August 29-30, 1862. Several archaeological excavations at the post have produced an array of artifacts, including horse and mule shoes, scabbard tips, Mini\u00e9 balls, round shot and pieces of canister shot. An impressive collection of those artifacts, made available through a 30-year loan, is now on display in the new museum, which is located in the historic Rogers House.\nOnce used as the depot post commander\u2019s quarters, the Rogers House served as a hospital following the battle. The historic structure, ownership of which was transferred to Madison County in 2005 along with three acres, has since been restored to its 1862 appearance.\nThe new museum, which opened on October 4, 2008, features multimedia exhibits as well as traditional displays. Visitors can also see specially designed laser topographical maps, showing the armies\u2019 movements on the battlefield before, during and after the engagement. Center spokesperson Paul Rominger points out that the laser maps are a unique feature rarely seen at other museums.\nThe battle, a decisive Confederate victory, was the second largest engagement in the state, behind Perryville. Included in the Union\u2019s 4,900-man casualty count were 4,000 soldiers taken prisoner. The Confederates suffered only 750 casualties.\nThe Army\u2019s artifacts are displayed on the museum\u2019s second floor, along with an exhibit honoring Union Brig. Gen. Mahlon D. Manson, who commanded troops on both days of the battle. Some of his papers and belongings\u2014including his saber, pistol, china, footlocker, field desk and other furniture\u2014were donated by the general\u2019s great-great-granddaughter.\nSince the history center cannot accommodate large crowds, visitors should call 859-624-0013 before planning a trip. Hours are from 9:30 to 4 Monday through Friday. Walking trails and a 16-mile driving tour should also be big attractions for the museum, which is within easy driving range of Lexington.\nTrail Marks Site of \u2018Conceity Dunce\u2019 Nonduel\nFor Civil War buffs, Alton, Ill., is probably best remembered as the site of the seventh and last congressional debate between Abraham Lincoln and Stephen Douglas. Today on the spot where a crowd of more than 6,000 gathered on October 16, 1858, to hear them argue antislavery vs. states\u2019 rights, life-size figures represent both men at Alton\u2019s Lincoln Douglas Square. But thanks to a $65,000 grant from the Lincoln Bicentennial Commission, visitors can gain an even better appreciation for the whole area\u2019s wartime heritage\u2014by following a newly blazed 10-stop Civil War trail.\nIn addition to new signage at Lincoln Douglas Square, the trail documents sites such as Smallpox Island, just upriver from Alton, where about 300 Confederate prisoners of war and civilians died while they were quarantined between August 1, 1863, and March 31, 1865. The site of Alton\u2019s Federal Military Prison is also nearby. Opened in 1833 as the first Illinois state penitentiary, the institution closed in 1860 after a new prison was built in Joliet. But it was reopened just a year later. During the war it would hold at least 11,000 captured Confederates and an assortment of nonmilitary prisoners, including several women who had made anti-Union remarks, as well as bushwhackers and guerrillas.\nPerhaps the most unusual stop is actually for a \u201cnonevent\u201d\u2014a duel between Lincoln and James Shields that almost took place across the river from Alton. The conflict had its beginnings when a series of letters critical of Shields, then serving as the state auditor, appeared in the Sagamon Journal signed \u201cRebecca.\u201d They were actually authored by Lincoln, who denounced Shields for deciding to require that payment of county taxes be made only in gold or silver. Lincoln referred to Shields as a fool, a liar, a hypocrite and a \u201cconceity dunce.\u201d\nThe auditor demanded a duel, and Lincoln promptly accepted\u2014but he specified that they would use cavalry broadswords. The two men met at a clearing across the river from Alton on September 22, 1842. But before any blood was shed, an agreement was reached: Lincoln admitted writing the letters and asserted that he didn\u2019t intend to impugn Shields\u2019 reputation as a gentleman.\nLincoln apparently did not hold a grudge against his would-be opponent that day. In August 1861, when Shields was nominated to the rank of brigadier general in the Union Army, the president approved his promotion.\nVirginia Slave Quarters Under Restoration A rare example of slave quarters constructed of stone was recently added to the Virginia Landmarks Register and nominated for the National Register of Historic Places. Located southwest of Dulles International Airport in eastern Loudoun County, the building is in the village of Arcola, named for a large plantation that dominated that area until the end of the Civil War.\nThe structure is believed to have housed as many as 32 slaves who worked on the James Lewis Farm in the first half of the 19th century. Some of those slaves probably helped to maintain nearby Little River Turnpike, the precursor of modern Route 50. Lewis and his brother Charles both served as officials in the Little River Turnpike Company.\nMeasuring 17 by 63 feet, the structure was actually constructed in two phases. The majority of the building was divided into four rooms, with two fireplaces located on interior walls. But since the structure was sited on a steep incline, similar to a bank barn, a fifth room is tucked in below the main level. The quarters may also have accommodated a blacksmith\u2019s shop.\nRecently deeded to Loudoun County by developer Buchanan Brothers, the building is now sited within the 400-acre Arcola Center project, a planned 400-acre residential and commercial development. The developer also do\u00adnated the 41\u20442 acres of land surrounding the slave quarters and has promised $500,000 toward the cost of restoring the building.\nOnce restoration is complete, the structure will be one of only five publicly accessible stone slave quarters in the United States. Officials have said they hope it will attract tourists interested in African-American history.\nDid Souvenir Hounds Stoop to New Lows?\nWas it the urge to make a fast buck or just sheer cussedness that led grave robbers to desecrate the burial place of a member of the 100th Pennsylvania Volunteers, the famed \u201cRoundhead\u201d Regiment, this past October? Unless the perpetrators are caught, we may never really know.\nFor whatever reason, vandals broke into the ivy-covered mausoleum in Oak Park Cemetery in New Castle, Pa., holding the remains of Edward C. Darley, who signed on to a three-year commitment with the Union Army in 1864, at age 18. Edward was the son of a British railroad engineer who had settled in Pennsylvania. The 100th\u2019s nickname, a reference to Western Pennsylvania\u2019s many Scottish and English settlers, had been suggested by General Winfield Scott, in part as a compliment to Simon Cameron, President Lincoln\u2019s first secretary of war.\nMustered out of the 100th\u2019s Company K on July 24, 1865, as a sergeant, Darley went on to become a prominent engineer, supervising the construction of large iron and steel plants as well as blast furnaces. He died in 1901 while undergoing surgery for a throat ailment.\nCemetery Superintendent Darrell Brightshue noted that Darley\u2019s was one of three graves disturbed the same night. \u201cI have never seen cemetery vandalism as bad as it is now,\u201d he said.\nFind Pension Files Online\nAfter the Civil War began, officials\u2014using the 1838 Congressional Act, which provided pensions during the War of 1812\u2014decided that women dependents who had lost their husbands or sons in wartime service were eligible for pensions. The pension office bureaucracy subsequently created a treasure trove of historical documents.\nNow you can easily research one of the most popular collections of original documents at the National Archives and Records Administration\u2014the Civil War Pension Files\u2014online. Thanks to a joint project between the NARA and Web site Footnote.com, it\u2019s possible to search for a specific soldier by name or browse a whole regiment.\nNot only can you find out about a U.S. Army veteran\u2019s term of service, you might also be able to locate his death date and locations\u2014even if he survived the war for many years. Visit Footnote.com to find out how.\nOne Response to They\u2019re Called Killing Grounds for a Reason: February/March 2009\nThis kind of \u201cresearch\u201d should be labeled as the \u201cno duh\u201d category. Hearing that the people conducting the research spent ten years figuring out that terrain has an effect on casualties is very unsettling. no duh!!!??? these people should spend their valuable time on something useful, because they are very inefficient and incapable when it comes to civil war studies.\nAbraham Lincoln, America's Civil War, Museum, Natural History, News",

The recommended dose is 30 mg BID.\nApremilast is a phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4) inhibitor which results in increased intracellular cAMP which helps to modulate the balance between pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory mediators produced by immune cells.\nPooled data from three multicenter, randomized controlled trials were analyzed to assess the efficacy and safety of apremilast. A total of 1493 adults with active PsA (\u2265 3 tender joints, \u2265 3 swollen joints) fulfilling CASPAR criteria were randomized (1:1:1) to either apremilast (20 mg BID or 30 mg BID) or placebo. In one of the studies, patients were required to have at least 1 active psoriatic lesion measuring \u2265 2 cm. Co-treatment with stable doses of DMARDs (methotrexate \u2264 25 mg weekly, leflunomide \u2264 20 mg daily, or sulfasalazine \u2264 2000 mg daily), corticosteroids (prednisone \u2264 10 mg daily equivalent), and NSAIDs were permitted. However, co-treatment with a TNF inhibitor was not permitted. Previous TNF inhibitor use was allowed, but patients with inadequate response to > 1 TNF inhibitor or > 3 DMARDs were excluded. The primary study endpoint was ACR20 response at Week 16. A significantly higher proportion of patients in the apremilast 30 mg BID group achieved an ACR20 response compared to placebo (32-41% vs. 18-19%, respectively, p<0.05). In one of the RCTs, active plaque psoriasis improved significantly among those who received apremilast 30 mg BID compared to placebo (PASI75: 21% vs. 5%, respectively). Enthesitis and dactylitis were improved in subjects receiving the higher dose of apremilast. Physical functioning at Week 16 as measured by HAQ-DI improved in apremilast 30 mg BID compared to placebo (-0.24 vs. -0.09, respectively).\nNotable adverse events with apremilast include diarrhea/nausea, depression, weight loss, and drug-drug interactions. To limit the GI side effects which occur especially during medication initiation, a dose escalation schedule during the first 5 days of use is advised. Due to a higher proportion of patients who reported depression with apremilast compared to placebo (1.0% vs. 0.8%, respectively), patients should be assessed for depression and suicidal ideation before and during continued use. Weight loss may also occur with apremilast (5-10% of body weight in 10% of patients receiving apremilast 30 mg BID compared to 3.3% with placebo). Because apremilast is metabolized via the cytochrome P450 pathway, inducers of cytochrome P450 (e.g. phenytoin, carbamazepine, rifampin, etc.) are not recommended to be co-administered with apremilast.\nFor patients with significant renal insufficiency (CKD stage 4 or higher, eGFR < 30 mL/min), the dose of apremilast should be reduced to 30 mg daily.\nApremilast is a pregnancy class C medication, with limited safety data in pregnant women. A registry has been established to follow outcomes of apremilast in this patient population. The safety of apremilast use during lactation is similarly limited.\nPsA is chronic inflammatory arthritis in the presence of skin and/or nail psoriasis. Though it is classified as a single disease entity, PsA has at least 5 clinical phenotypes as first described by Moll and Wright. Depending on the subtype and severity of disease, various medications can be used either singly or in combination to control the symptoms and signs of PsA.\nCurrent management of adults with active PsA includes NSAIDs, corticosteroids, DMARDs such as methotrexate, leflunomide, and sulfasalazine, as well as biological agents (e.g. TNF inhibitors and an anti-IL12/23 inhibitor). For patients with milder disease, a single DMARD may suffice, whereas those with more severe disease will likely require co-treatment with a DMARD and biologic. Despite the availability of an increasing number of medications to treat PsA, some patients may not achieve an adequate clinical response. Consequently, there appears to be an unmet need for additional medications in the rheumatologist\u2019s armamentarium in the treatment of PsA.\nThe recent FDA approval of apremilast in the treatment of adults with active PsA is welcome news for rheumatologists and other healthcare providers who care for these patients. To some extent, it marks a monumental moment in the annals of PsA management since apremilast is the first oral medication with an approved indication for the treatment of PsA. Despite the widespread use of methotrexate in the U.S. for PsA, methotrexate, along with leflunomide and sulfasalazine, are used off-label. And many patients who use these medications may still have inadequate clinical response. Based on pooled data from 3 separate RCTs consisting of nearly 1500 patients with active PsA, the efficacy of apremilast at 30 mg BID was deemed by the federal regulators at FDA to outweigh the risks of medication.\nCompared to the efficacy of TNF inhibitors as a class in PsA, apremilast appears to be slightly less effective. TNF inhibitors in RCTs have been reported to have an ACR20 response of 50-60% at Week 24 compared to apremilast\u2019s ACR20 response of 45% at Week 24. Since the RCTs with apremilast allowed for enrollment of TNF inhibitor-inadequate responders, it is conceivable that the lower treatment response can be attributed in part to the more refractory disease in this specific subpopulation of patients with PsA. Notably, the response to skin psoriasis is markedly less effective in apremilast compared to most TNF inhibitors (PASI 75: 21% vs. 56-60%, respectively). The side effect profile of apremilast is reassuring with respect to major infections, including tuberculosis and invasive fungal infections, observed occasionally with TNF inhibitors. There were no reports of these types of infections among patients receiving apremilast. Typical infections with apremilast appear to be mild, with mostly URIs and nasopharyngitis reported in 3.9% and 2.6% of patients, respectively. Nonetheless, GI side effects including diarrhea and nausea were significantly reported with apremilast\u2014especially during drug initiation, prompting a dose titration during the first 5 days of use to the target dose of 30 mg BID. Depression was reported to be higher among patients receiving apremilast compared to placebo. However, among small molecules in the family of PDE4 inhibitors, apremilast has a higher therapeutic index and can be used more safely in patients with PsA. Weight loss of up to 5-10% body weight occurred in 10% of patients receiving apremilast 30 mg BID. Whether this is related to the GI side effects associated with apremilast use is unclear.\nGiven the relatively safer side effect profile but the lower effectiveness of apremilast compared to TNF inhibitors, where does apremilast fit into the treatment algorithm in PsA? In patients with mild-to-moderate disease activity who have inadequate response to methotrexate, but with mild psoriasis, the addition of apremilast may make more sense than adding a TNF inhibitor. Similarly, for PsA patients who are well-controlled on a biological agent but who experience frequent severe infections, then treatment with apremilast instead may be clinically indicated.\nBefore apremilast can be more broadly adopted in the management of PsA, several questions need to be clarified. Given the heterogeneity of PsA clinical phenotypes, does apremilast work equally well in the spondyloarthritis subtype as it does the symmetric polyarthritis subtype? There is some level of uncertainty as to the disease-modifying effectiveness of methotrexate in preventing radiographic progression in PsA. Is apremilast like methotrexate, or does it work as well as TNF inhibitors in preserving joint integrity and physical functioning after many years of continued use? What about patients with severe dactylitis and enthesitis? Given the preliminary data from the RCTs, apremilast does not appear to be as effective as TNF inhibitors in treating these conditions. Is that more related to its duration of therapy rather than its mechanism of action? Finally, the unanswered questions of depression and weight loss warrant further investigation.",

Wolfe Street, Baltimore, MD 21205\nDr. Pienta's laboratory has championed the concept that cancer tumorigenesis and metastasis can best be understood utilizing the principles of Ecology. Ecologists have studied the population biology of invasive species for decades and have documented their impact on local environments as well as the global ecosystem as a whole. Invasive species start as a native population within a defined community and are then transported by some means to a new environment. In this new environment, the invader either then dies off or enters a period of time during which it establishes itself (lag period). It then begins to spread and have impact on the local environment, disrupting the ecosystem as a whole. This disruption has broad implications for the native species and the broader ecosystem. Biologic traits that result in a robust invasive species include rapid proliferative capacity, adaptation to environmental stress (phenotypic plasticity) and high tolerance to environmental heterogeneity. The life cycle of invasive species is directly analogous to the study of cancer metastasis. Cancer must grow in a primary site, extravasate and survive in the circulation to then intravasate at a target organ (invasive species survival in transport). Cancer cells often lay dormant at their metastatic site for a long period of time (lag period) before proliferating (invasive spread). Proliferation in the new site has an impact on the target organ microenvironment (ecological impact) and eventually the human host (biosphere impact). Successful treatment of cancer with a single agent is rarely enough to cure a patient without strategically modifying the support systems conducive to survival of cancer. The Pienta laboratory works to develop new treatments for cancer utilizing network disruption.\nGrasso, C.S., Wu, Y.M., Robinson, D.R., Cao, X., Dhanasekaran, S.M., Khan, A.P., Quist, M.J., Jing, X., Lonigro, R.J., Brenner, J.C., Asangani, I.A., Ateeq, B., Chun, S.Y., Siddiqui, J., Sam, L., Anstett, M., Mehra, R., Prensner, J.R., Palanisamy, N., Ryslik, G.A., Vandin, F., Raphael, B.J., Kunju, L.P., Rhodes, D.R., Pienta, K.J., Chinnaiyan, A.M., and Tomlins, S.A.

        "raw_content": "The Sound of Music: Nuns, Nazis and Alps, Oh My!\nKerstin Anderson as Maria with the children\nD. L. Groover | February 17, 2016 | 11:45am\nNo matter how many times you've seen the final collaboration of Broadway titans Rodgers and Hammerstein, The Sound of Music (1959), either onstage or the gargantuan movie version (1965), there's usually something new to appreciate, one tiny detail that makes the show click.\nFilled as it is with revered standards that have entered our consciousness and refuse to leave \u2013 the title song, \u201cClimb Ev'ry Mountain,\u201d \u201cDo-Re-Mi,\u201d \u201cThe Lonely Goatherd,\u201d \u201cMy Favorite Things,\u201d \u201cEdelweiss\u201d \u2013 the show is hardly the immortal team's greatest effort, beset by a sentimental libretto from another ace team, Howard Lindsay and Russel Crouse (Pulitzer Prize-winning duo of State of the Union, Life With Father, Arsenic and Old Lace, Call Me Madam). Dealing with nuns, Nazis and an lovable septet of musical kids, it's an unbeatable combination, though: evil villains, heartwarming family drama, and a rich, inspirational overlay of religiosity. You might hate the show for its cloying sweetness, but its power is undeniable. In no way will it ever be far absent from the stage.\nThe Sound of Music on Tour Features Houstonians in Cast and Creative\nIn this new Jack O'Brien touring production, the best version since the iconic original that starred legendary Mary Martin and a guitar-strumming Theodore Bikel, Music sings triumphantly. It's as sweet as you remember, you can't stage that out of it, but it has two things going for it that lift the show into invigorating new territory.\nOne is young Kerstin Anderson as Maria. Literally plucked out of college, where she's studying musical theater, Anderson possesses remarkable freshness, a glorious soprano and the ability to make her character seem improvised. Watch \u2013 and listen \u2013 as she schools the kids in \u201cDo-Re-Mi.\u201d Not only does she use sign language, a lovely blithe touch, but she seems to make up those similes as she goes. You know, \u201cDo, a deer...Re, a drop of golden sun...\u201d We believe she's thinking them up on the spur of the moment. Everything else she does is so infused with this aura of surprise and innocence. I hope she never loses this invaluable quality. It's rare. And she's going to be very busy in the future, I predict. Martin had unique stage presence that was its own form of stage magic, and she could make you believe she was a young girl from the convent, but Anderson is young, dewy, feisty, all the things Maria should be. It's no wonder Captain von Trapp (Ben Davis) falls for her.\nAnd what a glorious Mother Abbess this tour has in Ashley Brown, Broadway's original Mary Poppins. She also has stage magic and phenomenal pipes. R&H's great anthem, \u201cClimb Ev'ry Mountain,\u201d has never sounded so radiantly uplifting, so warm and maternal. Brown has that same mischievous twinkle I remember from her Mary not so long ago (2006). Her Abbess fills the Hobby with sun.\nOkay, make that three things: director O'Brien and his A-plus team. This is a Tony Award-winning Who's Who, and these stage wizards have done exceptional work to distill Music into a fluid, shape-shifting eyeful: Douglas W. Schmidt (42nd Street) on sets, Jane Greenwood (Lifetime Achievement) on costumes, Natasha Katz (An American in Paris) on lighting, Robert Russell Bennett (Special Tony for Historic Contribution) on orchestrations. The abbey is a gothic arch and stained glass; lace panels decorate the edges; the von Trapp villa is all windows and winding staircase; the Alps a Maxfield Parrish extravaganza. The look is coherent, reserved, but just enough.\nNaturally, or preternaturally, the kids are adorable, producing \u201cawws\u201d from the audience with their easy charm. Not to choose one cute tyke over another, but little Svea Elizabeth Johnson, as truth-telling Brigitta, steals her scenes like a pro. Davis is a commanding, manly Captain, and his haunting \u201cEdelweiss\u201d is a true highlight. And it's always good to hear R&H's snide side in Elsa and Max's \u201cHow Can Love Survive\u201d and \u201cNo Way to Stop It,\u201d numbers dropped from the film to make room for more vistas of Salzburg. It gives the musical a needed layer of adult content.\nThis legendary show plays in Houston for only a few performances. If, Sweet Mother Superior, you've never seen the show live, by all means go \u2013 and definitely take the kids if you have any. The Hobby was packed opening night with all ages, from six to 96, and at the end they were all smiling. I guarantee you'll leave humming the songs. The little girl sitting next to me liked, in order of appearance, the thunderstorm, \u201cThe Lonely Goatherd\u201d and the boys suddenly appearing from under the bed. She did not like the barking Nazi. You won't either. But everything else is a favorite thing.\nThe Sound of Music. Through February 21.

This is because of large swings in the model used by the department to iron out seasonal fluctuations.\nA measure of labour market trends nonetheless pointed to an improvement in the labour market's health. The four-week moving average for new claims fell 8,250 to 351,750, the lowest since March 2008.\nClaims have now fallen for two straight weeks, suggesting employers do not yet see tax hikes enacted this month as a big threat to consumer demand.\nA Labor Department analyst said claims data were estimated for three states last week, but there was nothing unusual in the state level data.\nClaims are now at roughly the same level they were in much of 2006 and 2007. Claims started trending higher around December 2007, the month that the country's recession began.\nHowever, while employers have pulled back on layoffs, they have only added jobs to the economy at a lackluster pace.\n\"The jobs market is just treading water at this point,\" Stephen Stanley, an economist at Pierpont Securities in Stamford, Conn.\nAnalysts polled by Reuters expect an employment report due on Feb. 1 will show 165,000 jobs were added to payrolls this month, up from 155,000 new positions in December.

        "raw_content": "Trump In Unexpected Trip To Mexico After Harsh Criticism\nPeter Andrew Hart Front Page Editor, The Huffington Post\nReutersGetty\nDonald Trump is traveling to Mexico City on Wednesday to meet with Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto\nMEXICO CITY, Aug 31 (Reuters) - Donald Trump traveled to Mexico on Wednesday to meet President Enrique Pe\u00f1a Nieto in an unexpected trip to a country which the Republican presidential candidate has frequently vilified as the main source of illegal immigration and drug smuggling to the United States.\nTrump\u2019s visit to Mexico City took place hours before he was due to deliver a highly anticipated speech in the border state of Arizona on how he would tackle illegal immigration if he wins the Nov. 8 election.\nTrue to Trump\u2019s flair for the dramatic, the trip south of the border will guarantee news coverage for the New York businessman and former reality TV star. But it also took him to a country where he is widely disliked because of harsh comments he has made during his White House campaign.\nMexican opposition politicians and academics expressed disbelief that Pe\u00f1a Nieto would host Trump, who has accused Mexico of sending criminals and rapists across the border and cheating the United States on trade.\nTrump arrived at Mexico City\u2019s airport and headed for a meeting with Pe\u00f1a Nieto at the Los Pinos official residence, Mexican news media reported.\nA few dozen people gathered beneath a monument to Mexican independence in the center of the capital to protest the visit, some holding placards emblazoned with captions such as \u201cYou are not Wall-come\u201d and \u201cTrump and Pe\u00f1a out.\u201d\nA woman demonstrating against Donald Trump's meeting with the Mexican president carries a sign during a morning protest at the Angel of Independence Monument that drew just a handful of people, in Mexico City, Wednesday, Aug. 31, 2016.\nRepublican vice presidential candidate Mike Pence said Trump would speak to the Mexican leader about border security, including his signature pledge to build a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border to counter illegal immigration.\nThe meeting, which Trump and his advisers began considering after an invitation from Pe\u00f1a Nieto last week, will be Trump\u2019s first official interaction with a foreign leader since he began his presidential campaign more than a year ago, stirring up frequent controversy both at home and abroad.\nPe\u00f1a Nieto has dismissed Trump\u2019s demand that Mexico pay for the proposed border wall and likened his tone to the ascent of dictators like Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini.\nTrump\u2019s campaign manager, Kellyanne Conway, asked by NBC\u2019s \u201cToday\u201d show if he would speak to the Mexican president in the same blunt terms he has used at home, Conway said Trump would be \u201cvery presidential.\u201d\nA source close to the Trump campaign said he expects the candidate might apologize in Mexico for some of his rhetoric but say that illegal immigration has to stop.\nTrump trails Democratic rival Hillary Clinton in most opinion polls nationally and in most battleground states with 10 weeks to go until the election.\nClinton said Trump could not paper over his previous harsh language against Mexico, which helped him defeat 16 rivals for the Republican presidential nomination.\n\u201cIt certainly takes more than trying to make up for more than a year of insults and insinuations by dropping in on our neighbors for a few hours and then flying home again,\u201d she told a convention of the American Legion veterans\u2019 group in Cincinnati.\nDonald Trump speaks during a campaign rally in Everett, Washington, U.S., August 30, 2016.\n\u2018DESPERATE MOVE\u2019\nTrump has been pilloried in Mexico since he launched his White House campaign last year.\nHe has pledged to renegotiate or scrap the 1994 North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) trade deal between the United States, Mexico and Canada.\nFormer Mexican President Vicente Fox, who has been fiercely critical of Trump, blasted the visit, saying Trump was untrustworthy and that Pe\u00f1a Nieto\u2019s invitation appeared aimed at boosting his own flagging popularity at home.\nPe\u00f1a Nieto has been enmeshed in his own controversies, including over whether he plagiarized some of his 1991 undergraduate law thesis.\n\u201cIt is a desperate move by both sides,\u201d Fox told CNN.\nGabriela Cuevas, a senator with Mexico\u2019s conservative opposition National Action Party and head of the Senate foreign relations committee, said the visit was degrading for Mexico.\n\u201cMexico looks weak as a country wanting to receive ... bullies, abusers, those who discriminate and confront. You don\u2019t invite them to come over for coffee,\u201d she said.\nThe head of a group of U.S. Republicans in Mexico, Larry Rubin, said Trump would spend about 90 minutes in Mexico City.\nThe last-minute trip contrasted with the usual style of foreign visits at the presidential level, which are long-planned and carefully scripted.\nAnd foreign trips by White House hopefuls can be tricky to navigate. Mitt Romney, the 2012 Republican candidate, made a number of gaffes during a trip to London, Israel and Poland four years ago.\nClinton was also invited to meet with Pe\u00f1a Nieto, but it was unclear whether she has accepted.\nAfter leaving Mexico, Trump was scheduled to make his speech on immigration at 6 p.m. MT (0100 GMT on Thursday) in Phoenix, Arizona, a state at the heart of the debate over the U.S. border.\nAides said he would reaffirm his determination to build a border wall and to quickly deport illegal immigrants who have committed crimes in the United States.\nBut the central question was how he would treat the majority of the 11 million illegal immigrants who have set down roots in their communities and obeyed U.S. laws. That issue has bedeviled the immigration debate in the United States for years.\nTrump has shown signs of indecision on whether to go ahead with his previous proposal for a \u201cdeportation force,\u201d saying there are some \u201cgreat people\u201d among the immigrant population and that he would like to work with them.\nConservative allies like former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin have warned Trump against rolling back on deporting illegal immigrants.\nBut a more moderate immigration stance could help him attract some critical swing voters in his uphill drive to win in November.\n(Additional reporting by Steve Holland, and Susan Heavey in Washington and Emily Flitter in New York; Writing by Alistair Bell; Editing by Frances Kerry and Jonathan Oatis)\nPhoto gallery Here Are Enthusiastic Trump Campaign Slogans Using Real Republican Quotes See Gallery\nHere Are Enthusiastic Trump Campaign Slogans Using Real Republican Quotes\nMORE: Donald Trump Enrique Pe\u00f1a Nieto Mexico white-house-2016 World",

        "raw_content": "Second Amateur Radio Skills Workshop in Chelmsford (February 2014)\nThe second CARS Amateur Radio Skills Workshop took place on the 17th of February 2014.\nOver 40 people gathered together at the Danbury Village Hall near Chelmsford for the second in the new series of Amateur Radio Skills Nights \u2013 This is a new initiative from the Chelmsford Amateur Radio Club intended to help local amateurs to meet, share knowledge and try something new. Rather than a \"sit-and-listen\" event, the Skills Workshops are hands-on sessions where people can get hands-on and ask questions on a one-to-one basis, which for many is the preferred way of learning something different.\nAt the first successful event in January, questionnaires were circulated to allow attendees to vote on future topics. Data Modes was the most requested topic, and so Data played a big part in the February session, with demos of PSK31 from Charlie M0PZT - the author of the free and easy-to-use PSK31 viewer EssexPSK. The weak signal data mode JT65 was demonstrated by Pete M0PSX, and the team was also joined by Chris M6EDF, who demonstrated how to receive signals from high altitude balloons, which sent their telemetry using RTTY.\nThe second most requested topic was \u201cHF Antennas\u201d, and CARS president Carl G3PEM was on hand to answer questions on this subject, with a common theme being advice on identifying the best type of HF antenna for use at home. Ideas were sketched on a whiteboard, supported by a collection of baluns, cables and connectors.\nAlso present at the event, Jim 2E0RMI with is popular live Echolink demonstration, David M0HBV with the RSGB Centenary PSK31 receiver, as well as a collection of other show-and-tell items including mobile HF antennas, a 2m Slim Jim, a home-made Morse key and a microphone built from bits salvaged at the recent Canvey Rally.\nThe session was very well attended, and it was great to see so many familiar faces, including recent CARS graduate Cathy Colless M0RTW, who travelled down from Cambridge. Cathy recently completed her Foundation, Intermediate and Full exams in just 57 days. For those unable to make the event, Pete M0PSX found time to have a couple of QSOs with amateurs in Kent, on the slot normally reserved for Pete's Essex Ham Monday Night Net.\nAs something of an experiment, a short quiz was put together to stimulate some discussion around licence conditions, band plans and callsigns. Those interested in answering the questions could scribble down their answers, making use of handy copies of band plans and licences. By popular request, an online version of the quiz is now available.\nThe quiz, and a selection of photos from the CARS February Skills Night can be found at http://www.essexham.co.uk/skills-feb14\nThe next event takes place on Monday the 17th of March 2014 at the Danbury Village Hall, near Chelmsford. The Skills Workshops are open to all, and there's no charge for attending.

        "title": "Close But Not Quite Perfect: Common Sources of ETF Tracking Error",
        "raw_content": "Close But Not Quite Perfect: Common Sources of ETF Tracking Error\nExchange-traded funds allow investors to track indexes in real time, but for several reasons they can't provide perfect correlation. Differences in fund and benchmark returns may arise - here is a list of some of the more common causes.\n1. Fees - Ah yes, indexers always start with the fees. Although expense ratios for ETFs are the lowest in the business, they still exist. The 101 domestic ETFs in Morningstar's database have an average expense ratio of 0.48%. ETF returns, or for that matter any fund's performance, are net of any fees. Simple enough.\n2. Dividend reinvestment policy - Excluding HOLDRs, which are grantor trusts, ETFs have two basic structures: management investment company and unit investment trusts. Most ETFs use the management investment company (or open-ended) structure, which allows for immediate reinvestment of dividends. However, some of the earliest and largest ETFs, such as the SPDR Trust (SPY) and Nasdaq-100 \"cubes\" (QQQ), are unit investment trusts (UITs). UITs are less flexible than their management investment company cousins, but the UIT structure was chosen for the initial ETFs because it was inexpensive and didn't require a board of directors.\nThe bottom line is that UITs cannot immediately reinvest dividends - this type of structure distributes dividends to shareholders quarterly, which causes minor tracking error. Management investment company ETFs, on the other hand, can immediately reinvest dividends. Immediate reinvestment of dividends causes outperformance in a rising market and underperformance in falling markets.\n3. Premiums and discounts - Generic ETF returns are typically measured on a monthly or yearly basis. At the market close at the end of the month or year, an ETF may trade at a premium or discount to the net asset value (NAV) of the underlying securities. This will lead to discrepancies in index and ETF performance. From a practical standpoint, however, ETF tracking error within an investor portfolio depends on premiums and discounts at the time when the ETF was bought and sold.\n4. Optimized portfolios - In some cases it is inefficient for an ETF or index fund to hold every stock in a large index. For example, small and illiquid stocks carry steeper transaction fees. Therefore, ETFs such as Barclays Global Investors' MSCI EAFE iShares (EFA) and Vanguard's Total Stock Market VIPERs (VTI) hold a representative sample of the index. This is the \"art\" of running a passive portfolio - balancing costs with index tracking error. Also, ETFs have diversification requirements that index providers aren't required to follow. For example, ETFs cannot have more than 25% of assets in any one stock, and all the stocks in an ETF with a weighting over 5% cannot exceed 50% of the fund's total assets when combined.\n5. Rebalancing - This is another area where passive managers earn their salt with savvy trading. When an index rebalances, an index fund or ETF is required to follow suit. However, the timing of the trades is at the discretion of the fund manager. How a fund manager deals with an index rebalance affects returns. For example, Vanguard index fund manager Gus Sauter and his team are renown for edging out index returns through opportunistic trading.\n6. Time zones - Some international ETFs trade in the U.S. while the underlying markets are closed. Sometimes it appears that these ETFs are not trading close to NAV, but the reason is that a \"stale\" NAV is being used. The international market may have been closed for hours while the ETF trades in the U.S. In other words, this tracking error is perceived, not actual.\nIndex-Linked Exchange-Traded Fund Quarterly.

It's even worse that the threat is about a political speech on the future direction of the country.\"\nHuman Rights Watch 6 June 2014\nAung San Suu Kyi delivers a speech calling for the amendment of the 2008 Constitution at a rally in Mandalay, 18 May 2014\nBurma's electoral commission should immediately cease threatening and intimidating the opposition National League for Democracy (NLD) party, Human Rights Watch said on June 4, 2014. The electoral commission should also drop proposals that would set limits on future election campaigning, and President Thein Sein and the Burmese government should publicly reject such proposals.\nOn May 22, the Union Electoral Commission (UEC) warned the NLD and its leader, Aung San Suu Kyi, that she had made illegal and unconstitutional comments at a rally in Mandalay on May 18 by saying the military should not be afraid of constitutional change in support of democratic reform. The commission announced that such statements could jeopardize the re-registration of the NLD ahead of bi-elections scheduled in late 2014 for 19 seats in the national parliament and 12 in states and regions, and nationwide elections at the end of 2015. The party replied on June 2 that Suu Kyi's statements were in line with the constitution and political party laws.\n\"It's truly scandalous that the electoral commission is threatening a political party for violating a regulation that doesn't exist,\" said Brad Adams, Asia director at Human Rights Watch. \"It's even worse that the threat is about a political speech on the future direction of the country.\"\nThe electoral commission should immediately stop intimidating opposition parties and threatening free expression in Burma, Human Rights Watch said.\nThe NLD and the 88 Generation Peace and Open Society began a joint campaign in recent weeks to amend Burma's 2008 constitution, which was passed in a sham referendum. In particular they are seeking to amend article 436, which grants the military effective veto power over constitutional amendments, and article 59(f), which bars elected members of parliament from the presidency if they have relatives with foreign citizenship. The discriminatory provision is aimed at disqualifying Suu Kyi, whose two sons have British citizenship.\nThe electoral commission's chair, the former army general Tin Aye, has made numerous remarks in recent months that demonstrate a pro-military bias. In April, he defended the constitutional provision guaranteeing 25 percent of parliamentary seats to serving military officers, claiming the quota was needed to avert any future coup. He also promised that the 2015 elections would be free and fair, but would be conducted in \"disciplined democracy style,\" using rhetoric closely associated with past Burmese military governments.\nIn April, the electoral commission released a series of draft regulations that would seriously inhibit the conduct of campaigns and place restrictions on the rights to freedom of speech and movement. These proposals include prohibiting party leaders or members from canvassing in constituencies outside their home district, in a clear attempt to stop Suu Kyi from campaigning across the country. The commission has also proposed requiring parties to provide local election commission officials with details in advance of proposed speaking venues, rally and march routes, and lists of planned participants.\n\"How President Thein Sein and the Burmese government respond to the proposals for arbitrary limits on campaigning and to reasonable demands for constitutional reform will tell the world whether they are interested in free and fair elections or are trying to rig the process,\" Adams said. \"Future elections will not have an ounce of credibility if anti-democratic rules put opposition parties at a disadvantage.\"\nPOSTED IN: Burma Censorship Free Expression & the Law\nNLD leader seeks international help to amend constitution\nMizzima News 15 June 2014\nActivists urged abolition of military's constitutional privileges\nMizzima News 28 July 2014\nPetition to amend constitution attracts 5 million signatures\nMizzima News 7 August 2014",

I have met hundreds of wonderful people and I look forward to meeting many more over the coming months until the end of my civic year in May 2016.\nWe have so much to be proud of in our borough and I have been immensely impressed by the wealth of talent within Erewash in every walk of life, from those involved in the theatre, music and arts organisations through to those people who are involved in caring and supporting the less fortunate in our society.\nI have seen at first hand the service given to the community by the armies of volunteers who work selflessly all year round to help others or raise money for charities. These are wonderful people involved in the numerous community groups and charities supporting people of all ages.\nIt is this collective contribution that makes Erewash such a wonderful community and my heartfelt admiration goes out to you all - I thank every one of you who so selflessly give your time and energy to make life better for others.\nWe know, of course, that some people will not be with their loved ones this Christmas and to them we send our special good wishes. We particularly think of those serving in the armed forces across the world and their families here at home, especially those who serve with our local regiment, the Mercians. We remember with particular gratitude those who have given their lives in the service of their Queen and country and the families they have left behind.\nSpecial thanks are due to all those people who will be working over the Christmas period in the emergency services, hospitals, power stations and all other essential services.\nI will end by wishing you all a Christmas that is safe, warm and comfortable.

        "raw_content": "Home / Business / Establishing A Business\nDoing business in Ireland couldn't be simpler and getting started is both quick and straightforward.\nThere is a strong collaboration between government, universities, business and state agencies to provide support to companies looking to establish a European base. Once established here companies continue to benefit from commitment from government and other stakeholders to help ensure that Ireland is the best possible place for your business.\nThere are lots of things to consider when establishing a business in a new country. We at the IMDO are here to help. Here are a few points to consider when when establishing a business in Ireland:\nConsider what Type of Organisation suits your needs - the most common option for international investors is often a Private Limited Company (LTD or DAC). Other options include Public Limited Companies, Unlimited Companies or a Partnership.\nEvery company must have at least two Company Directors and a secretary; the secretary may be one of the two directors. Usually at least one of the Directors must be a resident in the EEA.\nA company needs to have a registered office; the Company Address must be a physical location in Ireland.\nIn order to commence operations in Ireland it is necessary to register your Business Name, and then register your company. Business names can be registered here.\nDepending on the type of organisation it is necessary to file the Articles of Association or the Memorandum and Articles of Association with the Companies Registration Office.\nThere are a range Support Programmes available including those to assist investors setting up in Ireland and extensive assistance for Irish SMEs and start-ups.\nYou should familiarise yourself with the Irish Tax System for personal tax and corporate tax.\nIreland has a highly educated and motivated workforce to meet your Employment needs. Entry visas and employment permits are necessary for some nationalities.\nYou should seek appropriate professional advice on your own individual situation before proceeding. The information contained relates to the Republic of Ireland, is of a general nature and is not intended to address the circumstances of any particular individual or entity. Although we endeavor to provide accurate and timely information, there can be no guarantee that such information is accurate as of the date it has been viewed.\nFurther information on these and other aspects of setting up a business in Ireland is available from the Companies Registrations Office.\nThe Companies Act 2014 came into force on 1 June 2015 and regulates companies under Irish law. The two main types of company in Ireland are private and public. The most popular form of business entities for inward investment projects tends to be private companies limited by shares. The 2014 Act provides for two types of private limited company, a LTD which has simplified constitutional and governance structures and a DAC which is a designated activity company. All limited companies are required to file annual accounts with the Companies Registration Office. In order to incorporate in Ireland the company must be going to carry on an activity in Ireland.\nBranch operations \u2013 a branch is a division of a foreign company trading in Ireland that has the appearance of permanency, has a separate management structure, has the ability to negotiate contracts with third parties and has a reasonable degree of financial independence. To set up a branch in Ireland it is required to file a range of basic information with the Registrar of Companies in Ireland within one month of the establishment of the branch in the state and the parent company has a degree of ongoing reporting requirements to the Registrar of Companies. In some instances establishing a foreign branch may be preferable for tax purposes.\nIf you are from an EU member state, one of the countries of the European Economic Area or from Switzerland, you are entitled to come to work in Ireland. You do not need an employment permit. For non-EEA nationals, and depending on personal circumstances, entry visas and employment permits may be required.\nThere are a number of different types of employment permit with general rules applying. Examples of permit types include: the Critical Skills Employment Permit for highly skilled workers, the Intra-Company Transfer Permit for existing staff members transferring and the General Employment Permit. Employees who have employment permits are obliged to abide by the immigration rules and may need a visa in order to come to Ireland as well as registering with the immigration authorities.\nThere are initiatives including the Start-Up Entrepreneur Programme and Immigrant Investor Programme whereby non EEA nationals and their families involved in companies or investments which meet certain approved criteria may be granted rights of residence in Ireland.\nApplications for employment permits can be made by you or your prospective employer to the Employment Permits Section of the Department of Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation using the relevant employment permit application form.\nIreland is a dynamic, knowledge based economy and it has attracted over 1,000 companies to base their European operations here.\nIreland attracts some of the highest levels of inward investment of any country in the world and those who invest here consistently achieve some of the best returns available.\nIreland has become a key global centre for international business. As a tried and tested onshore location, Ireland is a longstanding member of the EU, OECD, Eurozone and NATO. The country has a proven track record for multinational companies and is a free and open economy. Ireland is also the only Eurozone country where English is the principle language.\nWe are here to help you find the right location for your business. Once we understand what your needs are be they connectivity, access to talent, cost or port access we can help you.\nDublin, on the east coast, is the capital city and has a population of over one million people. Ireland is well serviced by regular flights to the maritime hubs around Europe and internationally. London is less than one hour flying time with well over 100 flights a day between Ireland and the UK. Ireland\u2019s largest cities and surrounding county populations can be seen below.",

        "raw_content": "H-1B Specialty Occupation Worker\nThe H-1B visa is for people who wish to perform services in a specialty occupation. To qualify as a specialty occupation, the job must require a Bachelor\u2019s or higher degree as minimum entry into the position and the H-1B applicant must show that they have completed a U.S. bachelor\u2019s or higher degree required by the specific specialty occupation from an accredited college or university. In some cases, it is possible to use progressively responsible experience in lieu of the degree. One of the unique requirements of the H-1B visa is that the employer must pay the H-1B worker the prevailing wage for the position in the geographic area in which the H-1B worker will be working. Although finding the appropriate prevailing wage often requires a thorough understanding of an H-1B case, you can get an idea of prevailing wages for your occupation by checking the U.S. Department of Labor's wage database.\nH-1B nonimmigrants are initially admitted for a period of up to three years and extensions are possible up to 6 years. It is also possible to obtain extensions beyond six years if the H-1B applicant has a permanent visa (green card) case pending and it has progressed to a certain stage.\nH-1B Cap and Exemptions\nThe H-1B visa has an annual numerical limit \"cap\" of 65,000 visas each fiscal year. However, there are some notable exemptions from this cap: individuals who are in H-1B status and are seeking an extension, individuals who have obtained H-1B status in the past, but have not used up their 6 years; individuals with a U.S. master\u2019s degree have an additional 20,000 visas available, and individuals who are petitioned for or employed at an institution of higher education or related nonprofit or government research organization. Unfortunately, in recent years, the cap has been reached within a few weeks of the new fiscal year, making it difficult for new applicants to obtain an H-1B visa. For more information about the numerical cap and how it affects you please contact our office. You can also access the USCIS Web Page Fiscal Year (FY) 2014 H-1B Cap Season for additional details.\nFamily of H-1B Visa Holders\nSpouses and unmarried children under 21 years of age qualify for the H-4 nonimmigrant classification. Family members in the H-4 nonimmigrant classification may not work in the United States but may pursue studies.",

We will be doing on stage what we do on television and we will be streaming it live on Independent.ie.\n\"The great advantage is that we won't have ad breaks and we won't be interviewing the parish priest. There will be a few less rules.\"\nRachel Wyse is to chair the panel and she met the trio together for the first time yesterday.\nDuring the show, the team will appear on stage before and after every game, as well at half-time. And they will be joined by a number of special guests, including 'Apr\u00e8s Match' star Risteard Cooper.\nIan Mallon, Head of Content with Independent News and Media (INM), said said he was \"delighted\" to have them on board.\n\"Their views have set the rugby agenda for a decade; now the only place to see Tom McGurk, Brent Pope, Conor O'Shea and George Hook during the Rugby World Cup is live on Independent.ie,\" he said.\n\"INM's combination of expert columnists, analysis and breaking news will deliver unbeatable Rugby World Cup coverage online and in print and we are delighted to have the panel as part of our team.\"\nMcGurk said he was very excited to be part of the event and compared the panel with Jeremy Clarkson and the former 'Top Gear' team who recently announced their new deal with Amazon Prime.\n\"It is a huge change. I am excited because the numbers of people watching television under the age of 35 is shrinking,\" he added.\nI was 'set up' by TV3 ahead of my 'liar' outburst, says George",

However, they have been doing a less impressive job in handling the current crisis, which is now in its third year.\nhttps://www.independent.ie/opinion/analysis/ecb-is-leading-ireland-and-the-eurozone-to-disaster-26728400.html\nYields on Greek government bonds have reached stratospheric levels, implying that the markets regard a Greek default as a virtual certainty.\nBoth Irish and Portuguese yields suggest that the markets also see very high default probabilities in these countries.\nGreece and Ireland have been the beneficiaries, if that is the correct term, of rescue packages designed to ameliorate their financial crises. Portugal is next in line.\nBut all three countries now face the prospect of sovereign default. There has not been a sovereign default in Europe for almost 60 years.\nIn a BBC radio interview with Dan O'Brien of The Irish Times on Sunday last, former Finance Minister Brian Lenihan revealed that the European Central Bank had hastened Ireland's application in November 2010 for financial support from the IMF and the EU.\nAt that time, there had been suggestions over several weeks that the ECB would withdraw or reduce liquidity provision to the Irish banking system, thus forcing the Irish Government's hand.\nThe ECB's actions have been described as 'bouncing' Ireland into a deal with official lenders whose terms are regarded by many economic commentators, in Europe as well as in Ireland, as both unfair and unfavourable.\nThe deal has failed to resolve the banking crisis and has continued the policy of favouring bond investors in failed banks. It has also created a widespread perception that the ECB is not greatly concerned about the prospect of sovereign default in eurozone member states including Greece, Ireland and Portugal, all of whom are currently excluded from sovereign debt markets and with no visible re-entry strategy.\nIf you believe that by November Ireland was already shut out from the markets and unlikely to avoid resort to official lenders, this could all be dismissed as a storm in a teacup. A deal with the IMF/EU was coming anyway and no damage was done by precipitating the inevitable.\nOn this view, the Government here was in denial about the scale of the liquidity crisis and a few sharp prods helped to encourage a more realistic course.\nBut hasty entry into an unfavourable and unimplementable deal is a different matter and the behaviour of the ECB has created resentment in Ireland.\nIt appears that policy is being dictated to an elected government by a remote and unaccountable financial authority and that the policy is not self-evidently a good one.\nIf Brian Lenihan is to be believed -- and what he has been saying is certainly consistent with information already in the public domain -- the EU Commission also took a different line from the ECB in the weeks leading up to Ireland's November deal.\nThe ECB policy line for Ireland -- at least the public version -- can be summarised as follows. There must be generous treatment of bank bondholders, because the Irish failed to supervise the banks properly, and guaranteed (most of) their liabilities. Failure to pay bondholders cannot be contemplated, because of either moral obligation or contagion risks.\nIt is being assumed that the financial situation can be resolved solely through a further tightening of budgetary policy. This in turn assumes that there is no risk of sovereign default and that all debts can be paid, which implies that the markets have got it wrong.\nAlternatively, if the markets are right and there is a sovereign default, then that's just too bad.\nThis policy is also being pursued for Greece and Portugal, at least until it becomes untenable, which could happen pretty soon in the case of Greece.\nThe EU's political leadership has meanwhile contributed a proposal to include punitive collective-action clauses (against the lenders) in government bonds issued from 2013 onwards, with the possibility of haircuts also for pre-existing government debt of distressed eurozone members.\nThe verdict of the sovereign credit markets on all of this is clear and unsurprising. They will not lend a cent to Greece, Ireland or Portugal for the foreseeable future and do not believe that fiscal tightening alone will do the trick. As a consequence, there is no visible exit strategy for these countries.\nThe absence of a visible exit strategy places their governments in an impossible position. They cannot fashion a credible political message for their electorates, offering a credible probability of success in exchange for more fiscal pain.\nIt is not politically viable to tell people that further large tax increases are coming, along with more big cuts in expenditure and no bank credit, with no prospect of economic recovery and no end in sight. The 'rescue' package cannot be sold as a kind of economic black hole from which there is no escape.\nThe additional perception that this formula is being imposed by a central bank that most citizens had never heard of prior to the crisis does not help public acceptability, nor does the incessant sermonising from EU and ECB officials.\nThe likely result is political instability in these countries, with increasing support for anti-European political parties.\nThe further fiscal tightening desired by the ECB is substantial in all three countries, as it is in Spain if that country is to avoid a one-way ticket into the aforementioned black hole.\nIn Ireland, taxes have already been increased dramatically, social welfare payments have been cut, capital projects have been cancelled or deferred and public service pay has been cut twice.\nFurther measures are both necessary and desirable but the politics needs a visible exit strategy, which means a restored ability to access sovereign credit markets on affordable terms.\nAny rescue package which does not deliver this prospect runs a high risk of failure and the verdict of the markets looks to be decisive.\nThe commitment to further fiscal consolidation is undermined once the public and the politicians conclude that existing debts can never be refinanced in the markets.\nThe EU Commission and the ECB seem to believe that further budgetary corrections, as envisaged in the Memorandum of Understanding and accepted by the Irish Government, will see Ireland re-enter the bond market successfully in the second half of 2012.\nVirtually all bank bondholders will be paid back along the way and the banks will have been recapitalised and will be able to fund themselves.\nIf the markets, which Ireland must re-enter within 18 months, believed all of this, then Irish 10-year bonds would not be offering yields of 10.6 per cent, as they were on Friday.\nIf the markets do not believe that the exit strategy (a successful return to the markets before the end of 2012) is credible, then the game is already up.\nWhat, precisely, do the EU and ECB expect to happen that will change this scenario?\nIn the Irish case (but not the Greek), outstanding debt includes enormous obligations to repay bank bondholders. These were imprudently undertaken by the Government in the belief that the banking problems were much smaller than they actually are.\nThe result is that Irish taxpayers have already transferred substantial sums to investors who made losing bets on Irish bank bonds and they are expected to make further transfers in the future.\nSome of the banks whose bondholders have already been paid off have lost eight and 10 times their equity capital. The perception that the costs of the European banking crisis are being borne disproportionately by Ireland is corrosive of public support for desirable policy reform.\nEconomist Paul de Grauwe has argued that the very design of the eurozone created high risks of sovereign default for non-core EU members who were rash enough to join the single currency.\nIt is patently clear that these risks were under-appreciated in Ireland but it is dispiriting to have to listen to lectures from ECB officials who appear to regard the European banking crisis as essentially a morality play about fiscal policy.\nThe policy reforms designed to prevent another crisis are worthy and may work. But unless the European banking crisis is acknowledged and dealt with soon, we are witnessing a slow-motion train-wreck that will end badly for Ireland, for several other eurozone members and ultimately for the entire European project.\nColm McCarthy lectures in economics at University College Dublin.

        "raw_content": "Binyam Mohamed: Evidence of Torture by US Agents Revealed in UK\nAndy Worthington | 13.02.2010 00:15 | Guant\u00e1namo | Repression | Terror War | Sheffield | World\nThree senior UK judges on Wednesday ordered the British government to publicly disclose previously classified information that reveals how Binyam Mohamed, a British resident, was tortured by the CIA while in Pakistani custody in April and May 2002.\nBinyam Mohamed in July 2009, after his release from Guantanamo\nIn one short session, the Court of Appeal brought an end to a transatlantic game of cat and mouse that for the last year and a half has prevented two High Court judges from making public a seven-paragraph summary of an intelligence briefing, supplied by the US intelligence services to their British counterparts, which provided information about Mohamed's treatment after his capture in Pakistan in April 2002.\nDisclosure of the summary, which was written by the High Court judges, Lord Justice Thomas and Mr. Justice Lloyd Jones, had been opposed by the British foreign secretary, David Miliband, since August 2008, when the judges delivered a stern rebuke to the British government, ruling that, \"by seeking to interview BM [Binyam Mohamed] in the circumstances found and supplying information and questions for his interviews, the relationship between the United Kingdom Government and the United States authorities went far beyond that of a bystander or witness to the alleged wrongdoing.\" However, Miliband argued that releasing any information publicly would damage the valuable intelligence sharing relationship between the UK and the US, and the judges, with some reluctance, accepted his claims.\nHowever, the judges ordered 42 documents in the possession of the British government to be released to Mohamed's lawyers, on the basis that they were vital to his defense in a planned trial by Military Commission, in which he might face the death penalty. In the months that followed, further wrangling over the disclosure of these documents was transferred to the US courts, where the Justice Department tried in vain to keep them away from Mohamed's legal representatives.\nBy November 2008, however, these last-ditch attempts had failed, and, as a result, the central allegation against Mohamed - that he was involved in a \"dirty bomb\" plot (noticeably, one that never existed) - was dropped by the Justice Department, his planned trial by Military Commission was also dropped, and on February 23, 2009, he was flown back to the UK as a free man.\nThe manner in which Mohamed's case was fast-tracked to the top of the pile of cases being reviewed by President Obama's interagency Guant\u00e1namo Review Task Force strongly suggests that both the US and UK governments hoped that releasing Mohamed would seal the lid on further embarrassing disclosures about his torture - not only in Pakistan, but also in Morocco, where he was sent by the CIA for 18 months, and in the CIA's own \"Dark Prison\" near Kabul.\nHowever, instead of backing down, the High Court judges refused to let go of the case, arguing that, although it was appropriate for the contents of the 42 documents to remain secret, it was in the interests of \"open justice\" for their own summary of those documents to be made available to the public.\nDavid Miliband disagreed, maintaining, as he had in August 2008, that releasing the summary would threaten the intelligence-sharing relationship between the US and the UK, with dire consequences for national security, even though the judges maintained that their summary contained \"nothing secret or of an intelligence nature,\" as it merely comprised \"admissions by officials of the United States Government as to BM's [Mohamed's] treatment by them.\"\nThroughout 2009, the case rumbled on, as the judges maintained pressure on the government, and in November, the most revealing information to date was disclosed, when two previously redacted paragraphs in an earlier ruling were reinstated. These, as I noted at the time, were extremely significant, because they revealed that the judges had referred to the memos released by the Obama administration last April, written by lawyers in the Justice Department's Office of Legal Counsel in 2002 and 2005, which purported to redefine torture and approved the use of banned techniques by the CIA.\nThe judges had also noted that \"the techniques described were those employed against [Abu] Zubaydah,\" the supposed \"high-value detainee,\" captured in Pakistan on March 28, 2002, who was, officially, the first prisoner to be subjected to ten \"enhanced interrogation techniques,\" which included physical violence, stress positions, sleep deprivation, and waterboarding.\nThe Court of Appeal judges order the release of the torture summary\nOn Wednesday, after 18 months of obstruction on the part of the government, the judges in the Court of Appeal - Sir Igor Judge, the Lord Chief Justice; Lord Neuberger, the Master of the Rolls; and Sir Anthony May, President of the Queen's Bench - finally dismissed Miliband's claims, and, as the Guardian described it, \"shattered the convention that the courts should not question claims by the executive relating to national security.\"\nIn the ruling, Sir Igor Judge said that the case raised issues of \"fundamental importance,\" of \"democratic accountability and ultimately the rule of law itself.\" He added that the reasons for publishing the summary were \"compelling,\" because they concerned the involvement of British agents in the \"abhorrent practice of torture,\" and because the information contained in the summary helped to \"vindicate Mr. Mohamed's assertion that UK authorities had been involved in and facilitated the ill-treatment and torture to which he was subjected while under the control of USA authorities.\"\nFinally accepting defeat, Miliband made the summary available on the website of the Foreign and Commonwealth Office. The seven paragraphs are reproduced below:\nIt was reported that a new series of interviews was conducted by the United States authorities prior to 17 May [2002] as part of a new strategy designed by an expert interviewer.\nv) It was reported that at some stage during that further interview process by the United States authorities, BM [Binyam Mohamed] had been intentionally subjected to continuous sleep deprivation. The effects of the sleep deprivation were carefully observed.\nvi) It was reported that combined with the sleep deprivation, threats and inducements were made to him. His fears of being removed from United States custody and \"disappearing\" were played upon.\nvii) It was reported that the stress brought about by these deliberate tactics was increased by him being shackled in his interviews.\nviii) It was clear not only from the reports of the content of the interviews but also from the report that he was being kept under self-harm observation, that the interviews were having a marked effect upon him and causing him significant mental stress and suffering.\nix) We regret to have to conclude that the reports provide to the SyS [the British intelligence services] made clear to anyone reading them that BM was being subjected to the treatment that we have described and the effect upon him of that intentional treatment.\nx) The treatment reported, if it had been administered on behalf of the United Kingdom, would clearly have been in breach of the undertakings given by the United Kingdom in 1972 [in the 1972 torture convention]. Although it is not necessary for us to categorise the treatment reported, it could readily be contended to be at the very least cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment by the United States authorities.\nAs can be seen, the summary describes a range of techniques, which, in the judges' opinion, \"could readily be contended to be at the very least cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment by the United States authorities,\" including \"continuous sleep deprivation,\" combined with \"threats and inducements,\" including the threat of \"disappearing.\" As the judges also explained, \"the stress brought about by these deliberate tactics\" was \"causing him significant mental stress and suffering,\" to the extent that he was being \"kept under self-harm observation.\"\nThe evidence demonstrates that torture began before it was sanctioned by the Justice Department in August 2002\nThat such tactics were being used by US agents in April 2002, four months before the ten previously banned techniques - including sleep deprivation and waterboarding - were approved by lawyers in the Office of Legal Counsel, should come as no surprise. As I pointed out in an article last April, \"CIA Torture Began In Afghanistan 8 Months Before DoJ Approval,\" lawyers for Rafiq Alhami, a Tunisian prisoner in Guant\u00e1namo, demonstrated in court submissions that the CIA was torturing prisoners in Afghanistan from December 2001.\nIn a lawsuit, Alhami stated that he was held in three CIA \"dark sites,\" where \"his presence and his existence were unknown to everyone except his United States detainers,\" and where, at various times, he was \"stripped naked, threatened with dogs, shackled in painful stress positions for hours, punched, kicked and exposed to extremes of heat and cold.\" He also stated that his interrogators \"sprayed pepper spray on his hemorrhoids, causing extreme pain.\"\nNevertheless, Alhami's statements, which reflect similar statements made by other prisoners held in secret CIA prisons at this time, were largely ignored last April, and it is to be hoped, therefore, that the official confirmation of Binyam Mohamed's torture in April and May 2002 will put pressure on Attorney General Eric Holder to investigate how it came to pass that prisoners were tortured - or, at least, subjected to cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment - so many months before the OLC provided what senior Bush officials referred to as their \"golden shield,\" providing a twisted rationale for the torture and abuse that followed in the memos issued on August 1, 2002.\nAccording to a recent article in Newsweek, the conclusions of a long-awaited internal report into the behavior of the OLC lawyers who drafted the \"torture memos\" - conducted by the Office of Professional Responsibility (OPR) - have been fatally watered down in the report's final version, so that the primary authors, John Yoo and Jay S. Bybee, are no longer regarded as having \"violated their professional obligations as lawyers\" when they drafted the memos, and have only been mildly reprimanded for showing \"poor judgment.\"\nEven if this is the case, however, it fails to explain who was responsible for authorizing the infliction of cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment before August 1, 2002, and this is a question that needs to be answered. As Marcy Wheeler explained on Firedoglake:\n[The] abuse was inflicted by \"an expert interviewer\" implementing \"a new strategy.\" That \"expert interviewer\" and that \"new strategy\" almost certainly were associated with [James] Mitchell and [John \"Bruce\"] Jessen [the psychologist facilitators of a torture program based on reverse-engineering the military's SERE program, which teaches US personnel to resist torture by subjecting them to banned techniques], who were at that moment pitching using their \"new strategy\" with Abu Zubaydah. So this is not just proof that the US was engaging in torture before they got their \u2026 memo authorizing such torture. But it was proof that they were using Mohamed, in addition to Abu Zubaydah, as guinea pigs to test out that torture.\nHow Binyam Mohamed's torture was revealed in a US court\nFurther disturbing evidence of the use of torture emerged through close scrutiny of a statement issued by David Miliband in the wake of the ruling by the Court of Appeal. Miliband noted that \"At the heart of this case was the principle that if a country shares intelligence with another, that country must agree before its intelligence is released,\" and that \"This 'control principle' is essential to the intelligence relationship between Britain and the US.\"\nWith some satisfaction, he added that the government had \"fought the case to preserve this principle,\" and that \"today's judgment upholds it,\" explaining that the court only ordered the release of the summary \"because in its view their substance had been put into the public domain by a decision of a US court in another case,\" and that \"Without that disclosure, it is clear that the court of appeal would have overturned the divisional court's decision to publish the material.\"\nThis is an accurate assessment, although it glosses over the importance of the material that \"had been put into the public domain by a decision of a US court in another case.\" The case in question was the successful habeas corpus petition, in November 2009, of an Algerian prisoner in Guant\u00e1namo, Farhi Saeed bin Mohammed. In her ruling, made available in December (PDF), Judge Gladys Kessler expressed serious doubts about the reliability of allegations made by other prisoners, as she had in previous cases, and as the judges in general have throughout the habeas process. These doubts have contributing significantly to the 32 out of 41 rulings that have resulted in the judges concluding that the government failed, by a preponderance of evidence, to establish that the prisoners in questions were involved with either al-Qaeda or the Taliban.\nIn the case of Farhi Saeed bin Mohammed, one of the dubious witnesses identified by Judge Kessler was Binyam Mohamed. As she described it, Mohamed's statements, placing bin Mohammed at a training camp in Afghanistan,\ncannot be relied upon, because he suffered intense and sustained physical and psychological abuse while in American custody from 2002 to 2004. Petitioner [bin Mohammed] argues that while Binyam Mohamed was detained in locations in Pakistan, Morocco, and Afghanistan, he was tortured and forced to admit to a host of allegations. When he arrived at Guant\u00e1namo Bay, Binyam Mohamed implicated Petitioner in training activities \u2026 However, after being released from Guant\u00e1namo Bay, he signed a sworn declaration claiming that he never met Petitioner until they were both detained at Guant\u00e1namo Bay, thereby disavowing the statements he made at Guant\u00e1namo Bay about training with Petitioner.\nJudge Kessler also made some important points about torture, refuting the government's claims that Mohamed had made statements voluntarily at Guant\u00e1namo, and concluding that the effects of the torture he endured from 2002 to 2004 had not dissipated by the time of the later statements. This is undoubtedly an important precedent for future cases, but with specific reference to Binyam's court case in the UK, the significance of Judge Kessler's ruling relates to the government's refusal - or inability - to challenge the assertions made about Binyam Mohamed's torture.\nIn response to bin Mohammed's claims about Binyam Mohamed's statements, Judge Kessler noted, \"The Government does not challenge Petitioner's evidence of Binyam Mohamed's abuse,\" and at another point, after running through the whole horrendous story of Mohamed's abuse in Pakistan, Morocco and the \"Dark Prison,\" as recounted in statements to his lawyer, Clive Stafford Smith, she noted that \"The Government does not challenge or deny the accuracy of Binyam Mohamed's story of brutal treatment.\"\nFurther evidence of a British cover-up\nIt is somewhat ironic that information that the British government tried so hard to suppress was actually disclosed in greater detail in a judicial ruling in a US court, which made its protestations worthless, but this is not the last piece of shocking evidence to emerge from the Court of Appeal ruling.\nJust hours after the ruling was announced, the Guardian reported that one of the judges, Lord Neuberger, the Master of the Rolls, had included in the ruling a statement regarding the behavior of the British security services that was so critical that Jonathan Sumption QC, representing the government, had written to the court, warning that the paragraph in question was \"likely to receive more public attention than any other parts of the judgments.\"\nAs referred to in Sumption's letter, which came to light following intervention by lawyers and media organizations including the Guardian, Lord Neuberger's statements included assertions that MI5 did not respect human rights, had not renounced participation in \"coercive interrogation\" techniques, deliberately misled MPs and peers on the intelligence and security committee, which is supposed to be able to scrutinize its activities, and had a \"culture of suppression\" in its dealings with Miliband and the court.\nWith reference to the MI5 officer known as Witness B, who interrogated Binyam Mohamed in Pakistan in May 2002 (and is now the subject of a police investigation), Neuberger apparently indicated that he did not believe that he was acting alone and that he believed that his conduct was \"characteristic of the service as a whole,\" and also noted that MI5's culture of suppression \"penetrates the service to such a degree\" that, as the Guardian explained, \"it undermines any government assurance based upon information that comes from MI5 itself.\"\nAt the government's request, Lord Neuberger dropped his comments from the final ruling, without advising any of the other parties involved in the case. However, after Sumption's letter was disclosed, Lord Neuberger conceded that it was \"over-hasty\" to withdraw it without allowing other voices to be heard, and provided objectors with a deadline of 4 pm on Friday to make representations, to enable him to decide whether to reinstate his judgment.\nThroughout this whole tawdry saga, Binyam Mohamed was not present, but it must come as some relief to him, after his long ordeal, to realize that, one year after his release, his torture by US agents in April 2002 will cause questions to be raised regarding the authorization of prolonged sleep deprivation and threats to make him \"disappear,\" and that the British security services face questions about their entire way of operating, in the wake of the 9/11 attacks, when the UK zealously embraced its role as America's closest foreign ally.\nHomepage: http://www.andyworthington.co.uk/2010/02/12/binyam-mohamed-evidence-of-torture-by-us-agents-revealed-in-uk/\nCompare Labour Party to CIA morality \u2014 Ilyan\nMI5 deserve to be in the dock \u2014 waltzing matilda",

Ecomare, the centre for the Wadden- and North Sea, says the killings of the animals found in a total of 120 strandings in recent months can be contributed to the Danish fishing vessels which operated along the Dutch coast over the winter period.\nFishers will often kill and cut the Porpoises out of their nets, instead of cutting the nets around the animals to free them from being trapped. According to Ecomare director Just van den Broek many reports have come in of stranded carcasses from which the insides were cut out, apparently in an effort to make the carcasses sink to the bottom of the sea quicker.\nAlthough the sea mammals are protected by law, those operating fishing vessels will often choose the cheaper and easier methods of getting rid off so called \"by catch\" in order to protect their investments and profits. In the last 3 months over 100 killed Harbor Porpoises have stranded on Dutch beaches, compared to a total of 46 in all of 2008. About half of those found were cut open and/or had been mutilated.\nAlthough the Royal Netherlands Institute For Sea Research (NIOZ) has sent a letter to the Dutch Minister for Fisheries and the Environment about the situation, it is clear that an alarming situation as this needs a quick and concise response. International agreements as well as Dutch law give clear opportunities for prosecution of those responsible. If the Dutch authorities as well as marine protection groups join forces to get to the bottom of this, hopefully these beautiful yet unfortunate creatures will get the justice they deserve.\nmarine protector\nPhotos of the strandings.",

The 36,000-square-foot facility at 6755 East Golf Links Road was built in 1987. It comprises 444 units on 2.3 acres. Features include high street visibility, all-steel construction and an onsite residence. U-Haul is adding this site to its already extensive list of Arizona properties.\nThis deal was a desirable acquisition for U-Haul due its close proximity to Davis-Monthan Air Force Base and the high demand for self-storage and truck rentals services. U-Haul will be upgrading the existing self-storage facility and operating the property without onsite personnel from a remote location, said Stephen Grossman, a broker in the Orange County, Calif., office of NAI Capital, which represented both buyer and seller.\nAMERCO is the parent company of U-Haul International Inc., Oxford Life Insurance Co., Repwest Insurance Company and Amerco Real Estate Co. Established in 1945, U-Haul has 36 million square feet of storage space at more than 1,000 owned and managed facilities throughout North America.\nBased in Encino, Calif., NAI Capital is a commercial real estate firm with 14 offices throughout California.

However, no cryptocurrency developer is more convinced of the coin\u2019s flaws than Brad Garlinghouse, the CEO of Ripple.\n\u201cI think [Bitcoin is] not going to be the panacea that people once thought it would be, where it should solve all of these different kinds of problems\u2026 Instead, you\u2019re seeing specializations of different kinds of ledgers, different kinds of blockchains,\u201d he told CNBC.\nIndeed, Bitcoin is currently facing tough competition from other cryptocurrencies that have improved upon its technology to provide new ways of storing and transferring value.\nThe thing is that Garlinghouse does not even consider cryptocurrencies money per se. In a February interview, he said they are more like digital assets, noting that they are not currently easy to spend in the same way one would fiat money.\nDespite his opinion of Bitcoin, he refrains from pitting XRP against it, claiming the idea is not to make comparisons between the two coins.\n\u201cI don\u2019t really think about it as one versus the other. I mean, it\u2019s actually unfortunate, I think, that there\u2019s some people in this, the crypto space, the blockchain space\u2014for them, it\u2019s almost a holy war of one versus the other,\u201d Garlinghouse said.\nGarlinghouse Talks Down Lawsuit\nIn the same interview, he was asked about the lawsuit Ripple is currently facing.\n\u201cHere\u2019s somebody who held XRP for, I think, two weeks\u2026 and is making some claims. Whether or not XRP is a security is not going to be dictated by one lawsuit\u2026 I think it\u2019s very clear that XRP is not a security, it does exist independently of Ripple the company. If Ripple the company is shut down tomorrow the XRP ecosystem would continue to exist. It\u2019s an independent, open-sourced technology,\u201d Garlinghouse said.\nDespite his confidence in the strength of Ripple\u2019s legal case, the company has employed the services of a former SEC boss to help with the defense\nIf Ripple loses, it could establish a precedent that strongly impacts the cryptocurrency ecosystem in the United States.",

        "raw_content": "Are You Accurately Measuring Your Company\u2019s Digital Strength?\nBy: Jeff Maling, Rod Fertig and Arun Muthupalaniappan\nThere are few business leaders around the world not thinking about digital transformation in some shape or form. Whether improving omni-channel commerce or developing digital extensions to product lines, businesses are working out how to drive profitability through digital. But traditional metrics might underestimate the impact of digital, leaving companies vulnerable to aggressive competitors or pure-play disruptors. Many managers are missing digital signals that could help them better compete.\nArmed with a hypothesis that the stock market was undervaluing digital, we sought to create the largest known repository of digital data on U.S. companies. Our aim was to prove the link between digital strength and shareholder value, and do so in a way that passes the rigorous standards of hedge funds. We looked at the top 1,000 U.S. public companies, mapped every digital property for those companies, collected 75 billion digital consumer interactions per month over a period of five years, and made thousands of calculations. (A full explanation of our methodology and the rigorous process of residualization that was required of our hedge fund clients can be found here.)\nOur findings: A number of digital metrics, or signals, that aren\u2019t widely tracked today are very strong predictors of revenue growth and share price. They include the following:\nDigital magnitude. Simply put, this is the aggregate of all digital measures (visits, page views, social media views, social media visitors, etc.). Understanding your company\u2019s magnitude versus those of competitors is a key indicator. Perhaps not surprisingly, American Airlines leads in magnitude for U.S. airlines \u2014 but not by as much as you would think.\nDigital share. Your company\u2019s digital share is its magnitude divided by the sum of the magnitude of its competitive set. You should compare this number to your company\u2019s actual market share. If your digital share is larger than your market share, you are in a strong position to increase your market share.\nThis is where it gets interesting for U.S. airlines. Southwest has 13% of the U.S. market but a 22% digital share of the U.S. industry. Among large carriers (American, United, Delta, Southwest), it has a 15% market share and a 30% digital share. Some, but not all, of this disparity is related to Southwest\u2019s refusal to sell through online travel agencies such as Priceline and Orbitz. How they valued the pros and cons of these types of arrangements could be key to their success. Based on its digital share, we predict Southwest will increase its market share over time.\nDigital momentum. A simple way for a company to calculate its momentum is for it to take monthly snapshots of all metrics and track which are increasing or decreasing. Southwest\u2019s measures are improving more than any other major U.S. carrier. For example, it has five times more Facebook \u201cLikes\u201d than United and more than two times those of American and Delta.\nIf a firm isn\u2019t gaining digital share, it is jeopardizing its future market share \u2014 yet few companies look at their digital growth. In fact, many companies see digital as a destination and believe that \u201conce we build that website or improve social, we can scale back.\u201d The reality is that winning in digital requires a sustained program of continuous improvement and investment.\nThe revenues of companies in the top decile of digital strength (our proprietary metric that is an aggregate of all our digital signals) grew 9.6% the following year. By comparison, the revenues of those in the bottom decile fell by 8.2%. That\u2019s a nearly 20-point difference between digital leaders and laggards in a single year. This phenomenon played out in virtually every industry. Leaders also beat analysts\u2019 consensus predictions of revenue more often (65% versus 45% for the laggards), resulting in higher share performance for the leaders and a significant valuation penalty (12% over three years) for the laggards.\nOne obvious implication of our findings is that companies should track the kind of digital measures that we discussed above. Another is they should approach digital the same way that digital businesses do: build digital scale and strength before pursuing monetization. All too many traditional corporations make the mistake of applying the same metrics and hurdle rates to digital as they do to other channels.\nThey should also rethink how they develop business cases for possible digital investments. To properly account for the disproportionate impact of digital on future revenues and shareholder value, companies might want to value digital revenue and digitally-influenced revenue higher than traditional channels. They need to consider whether a loss of market share is an implication that they are not investing enough in digital. Few business cases include the cost of doing nothing, but they should.\nDigital strength may be the most important determinant of business health and future growth not being measured or managed by enterprises today. Managing against this measure is essential for all businesses that want to survive and grow.\nThis article was originally published in the Harvard Business Review.",

        "raw_content": "NBN drives relaxation of 'low-impact' antenna laws\nBy Ry Crozier on Jun 9, 2017 4:14PM\nGovt unveils plans for massive regulatory shake-up.\nThe government has quietly proposed the biggest shake-up of rules for mobile phone antenna installation in 20 years, with NBN Co behind several of the proposed changes.\nThe Communications department late Friday laid out a large number of proposed changes to what is classified as a \u201clow-impact facility\u201d under telecommunications law.\nThese are rules relied on by telcos to bypass state and local planning laws, mostly to deploy new mobile antennas.\nThey are already contentious and often criticised by residents groups as a way to deploy mobile infrastructure without consulting local communities.\nThe government is now proposing a major shake-up that would expand the type of antennas and poles that can be installed under low-impact rules, at the behest of NBN Co.\nOther changes would allow larger diameter dishes to be deployed, as well as tower height extensions in commercially zoned areas for the first time.\nNBN Co is seeking several changes to the rules as it hopes to install new types of fixed wireless antennas, known as lens antennas, which are up to 4 cubic metres in size and protrude up to 5m from the structure they are attached to.\n\u201cWhere these antennas will be attached to existing towers or other types of existing structures, NBN Co would like to be able to install them as low-impact facilities,\u201d the Communications department said.\n\u201cLens antennas are able to provide more focused coverage and capacity from a single elevation than a standard panel antenna.\n\u201cThis is useful when the demand for the facility is coming from a single direction. In this instance, only one lens antenna may be required on a tower, with no need to install any panel antennas.\u201d\nIn addition, NBN Co is pushing to have poles up to 12m high and 500mm wide classified as low-impact. These would be used to \u201csupport telecommunications and electricity cabling\u201d for the NBN.\nIf approved, the rules would be restricted to essentially NBN Co. Those taking advantage would need a \u201cnational network, used, or for use, for the high speed carriage of communications on a wholesale-only and non-discriminatory basis\".\nHaving infrastructure classified as low-impact could allow NBN Co to deploy it much faster than is currently possible.\nOutside of the changes sought for the NBN, there are a number of other size and height extensions being proposed, including:\nSatellite and radiocommunications dishes up to 2.4m diameter being permissible in rural and industrial areas, up from 1.8m.\nA 2m extension to the height at which antennas can protrude above buildings. This would increase from 3m to 5m.\nThe allowance of any small cell technologies to be installed, as long as the equipment fits a certain size limit.\nTower heights could be extended by up to 5m in commercial zones for the first time.\nWhat may also cause concern are proposed changes to the amount of time that landowners and those around them will have to dispute a planned installation under the low-impact rules.\nCurrently, telcos must give the landowner at least 10 business days\u2019 notice of its intentions, and objections must be lodged no later than five days before the works are scheduled to begin.\nIf changes are allowed, those who want to object will have only five business days from their \u201creceipt of a notice\u201d of the telco\u2019s plans.\nThe Communications department is accepting submissions on its plans until July 21.\nCommunications Minister Mitch Fifield suggested that the changes, if approved, \u201ccould result in economic and social productivity benefits for consumers, worth over $50 million per year, and regulatory cost savings to industry and government worth over $100 million per year\".\nHe said those numbers were drawn from research by the telecommunications industry, rather than from a government source.\n\u201cThe changes seek to clarify the operation of some existing powers and immunities, allow for the deployment of new types of network infrastructure, make changes to some existing facility types, and streamline notification and objection rules,\u201d he said in a statement.\nThe changes would not affect applications by telcos to put up new, freestanding mobile phone towers. These are governed by state and territory planning laws and would be no easier to build should federal laws be changed.\nantenna changes determination facilities fixed wireless low impact nbn nbn co pole telco telco/isp\nGovt puts off major reform of mobile tower rules",

        "title": "ITREALMS: Dear President Buhari, Nigeria\u2019s unity is negotiable!",
        "raw_content": "Dear President Buhari, Nigeria\u2019s unity is negotiable!\nSince the public presentation of the book We Are All Biafrans and the intervention of a former vice president of Nigeria, Atiku Abubakar, who chaired the event and delivered a speech titled \u201cRestructuring for Nigeria\u2019s national unity\u201d \u2013 a speech I recommend to everyone interested in the unity and survival of Nigeria \u2013 the issue of restructuring Nigeria and negotiating its unity has once again taken the centre stage of national discourse.\nNo less a person than President Muhammadu Buhari has had to weigh in on the debate. During his Eid el-Fitr message to Nigerians on Wednesday, July 6, 2016, he was reported to have said: \u201cI assure them (in reference to the Niger Delta \u2018militants\u2019) that when we were very junior officers, we were told by our leaders, by the Head of State, Gen. Gowon, that to keep Nigeria one is a task that must be done\u2026we never thought of oil. What we were after is one Nigeria. Please, pass the message to the militants that one Nigeria is not negotiable. And I pray they better accept it. The constitution is very clear\u2026I assure them there would be justice.\u201d\nBefore President Buhari\u2019s admonition, Nobel Laureate, Prof. Wole Soyinka, had noted during a parley with The Punch on Tuesday, June 28, 2016: \u201cI am on the side of those who say we must do everything to avoid disintegration. That language I understand. I don\u2019t understand (ex-President Olusegun) Obasanjo\u2019s language. I don\u2019t understand (President Muhammadu) Buhari\u2019s language and all their predecessors, saying the sovereignty of this nation is non-negotiable. It\u2019s bloody well negotiable and we had better negotiate it. We better negotiate it, not even at meetings, not at conferences, but every day in our conduct towards one another.\u201d\nThe opinions of these two prominent Nigerians reflect the two divergent opinions on the issue of restructuring Nigeria or negotiating her unity. I had planned this article \u2013 that was before President Buhari\u2019s remarks \u2013 as a cautionary note to the Left, progressives and genuine patriots in Nigeria. I believe they are the only ones predisposed and sincerely open to solving the current crisis. Regrettably, this is one issue that has divided the Left, progressives and patriots in Nigeria.\nThis division has defined the kind of response \u2013 ranging from obfuscation and doublespeak to outright denial and combativeness \u2013 that has made it impossible to have a coherent national narrative and action plan. Since those who ought to speak out and act have maintained criminal silence and indifference, they have yielded the space to conservative analysts of every hue, hypocrites, blackmailers, anarchists, and fifth columnists.\nSo what are the issues in contention? There seems to be a general agreement, even among those who brought us to this near-tragic end, that Nigeria is not working for Nigerians. However, and this is where the divergence of opinions sets in, Nigeria is not working not because it is not workable, but because it has been rigged to fail. Take the issue of the civil war (1967-70) which President Buhari alluded to. That war was fought in part because of natural resources (oil specifically).\nThat was the driving force of the so-called federal offensive and to some extent it also defined the geo-politics of what would become the secessionist Republic of Biafra. After 30 months of fighting and millions of lives lost, there was a \u201cnegotiated\u201d settlement. A truce was declared with the catchphrase \u201cNo victor; No vanquished.\u201d\nUnfortunately, 46 years after the end of that internecine war, low-intensity conflicts by state and non-state actors are raging across the country, from Boko Haram in the North-east, Islamic Movement in Nigeria (IMN) and Arewa People\u2019s Congress (APC) in the North-west, the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) and other groups in the South-east, the Niger Delta Avengers and Bakassi Strike Force (BSF) in the South-south to the Oodua Peoples Congress (OPC) in the South-west and potential avengers in the North-central. What this tells us is that that war didn\u2019t really end and hasn\u2019t ended. What then do we do to fix Nigeria? The simple answer would be to return to the negotiation table.\nTo be clear, Nigeria has always been negotiated. The problem has been that the \u201cvictors\u201d or those who control power at each round of negotiation have unilaterally defined the structure and politics of the country going forward. Again, I return to the issue of oil. Before independence in 1960, this was the \u201csharing\u201d formula for crude oil revenues: Oil producing states (region) retained 67.4% of revenues, the federal government got 20%, non-oil states (regions) got 12.6%.\nAfter the civil war in 1970, the regime of Gen Yakubu Gowon through Decree No. 13 \u201cnegotiated\u201d a new formula: Oil producing states retained 45% of revenues, the federal government got 55% while non-oil states got 0%. In 1975, the regime of Gen Murtala Muhammed in another round of negotiation through Decree 6, came up with this formula: Oil producing states would retain 20% of revenues, the federal government got 80% and non-oil states got 0%. In 1976, Gen Obasanjo, then military dictator, in his omniscience, gave oil producing states 0% of revenues while the federal government got 100% and the non-oil states got 0%.\nPresident Shehu Shagari who came to power in 1979 brought a bizarre twist to the \u201csharing\u201d formula. He retained the Obasanjo formula of 0% allocation to oil producing states and 100% to the federal government to be shared in this order: 50% shared equally among states, 40% shared based on population and 10% based on land mass. By 2000, during the reincarnation of Gen. Obasanjo as civilian president, a new revenue sharing formula was negotiated which gave oil producing states 13%.\nAs Prof. Yakubu Aboki Ochefu notes in the introduction to the book Nigeria is Negotiable, \u201cBeginning from the Berlin West Africa Conference of 1884-85, the \u2018negotiated\u2019 existence of what eventually became Nigeria in 1914 (unfortunately, negotiated without the input of those who would eventually become Nigerians) has always been a part of its historical experience. Under British colonial rule, the economic and administrative structures of the country were continuously rejigged until independence in 1960.\n\u201cBetween the official versions of the decolonisation history that gives a prominent role to our nationalist heroes for winning independence from the British, to others who believe in the \u2018conspiracy theory\u2019 of decolonisation, the process of how the region with the least democratic credentials ended up as the driver of a new democratic enterprise epitomizes aspects of the negotiated experience. As a country on its \u2018third missionary\u2019 journey to a truly democratic nation, the fundamental questions of nation building that began over 100 years ago have not been fully and or properly answered. We must collectively negotiate to ensure that we retain the map (of Nigeria) but change the way we exist under that map.\u201d\nOn April 22, 1990, a group of young Nigerian army officers \u2013 mainly from a section of the country (the same army President Buhari told us last week fought to keep Nigeria one) \u2013 attempted to overthrow the military regime of Gen Ibrahim Babangida. While that abortive coup lasted, the rebellious soldiers excised five states of the federation \u2013 Sokoto, Borno, Katsina, Kano and Bauchi. That coup and the excision order were popular and well-received in many parts of the country. Clearly, if that coup had succeeded, the aftermath would have been another civil war. Gen. Babangida responded to that mutiny by dividing Nigeria into 30 states from 21 (just as Yakubu Gowon divided Nigeria into 12 states from four regions in 1967 to weaken the Biafra secession).\nHaving told ourselves a few historical home truths, let us quickly avail ourselves of one more opportunity to reclaim Nigeria. When people call for restructuring Nigeria, they make the call for a reason. And it should not be dismissed peremptorily. The rulers of the country use every opportunity to speak about the unity of Nigeria and hardly do anything to build or enhance that unity.\nI don\u2019t think the issue really is about the unity of Nigeria. Undoubtedly, many Nigerians want to live in a united Nigeria. It is important, therefore, that we do not conflate the issues. The call for restructuring Nigeria has nothing to do with the \u201cdissolution\u201d of Nigeria. You can believe that \u201cNigeria is non-negotiable\u201d and still support the call for restructuring the country. That call is basically about building an inclusive and equitable nation; one in which your worth and position are determined not by where you come from or your religion; a nation founded on a popular constitution validated by \u201cwe the people\u201d.\nOn a final note, let me emphasize that restructuring Nigeria has become a \u201ccategorical imperative\u201d for the country. It is either we restructure or perish! Restructuring Nigeria is not an elitist concept (even if it is sometimes used by sections of the ruling elite to negotiate power) neither is it about splitting Nigeria. We can restructure (or negotiate) Nigeria without changing the internal map of the country; it is more about resource control rather than resource allocation; more about devolution of power and, therefore, responsibilities. It is about enhancing citizenship rights and the existential confidence in the country.\nOf course, restructuring Nigeria is not a silver bullet or cure-all for our problems. But we can\u2019t take on our problems as a nation without a generally acceptable and workable structure. In a sentence, we MUST \u201cre-federalize\u201d.\nChido Onumah\u2019s latest book is We Are All Biafrans.

        "raw_content": "American gambler William Benter developed probably the most successful computer software in the world to attack the giant Hong Kong horse automotive market, where the pools regularly reach into the hundreds of millions of dollars. Throughout the 2010 racing season alone the gambling turnover reached HK$71.65 billion, on just two racetracks. In comparison, all the thoroughbred racetracks in the U.S. Combined take in just over $12 billion. William Banter\u2019s software reportedly assesses hundreds of single variables for each horse, jockey, trainer and track. Utilizing the results, Benter and his team create their very own prices and probabilities, and use them to bet against the general public.\nWith amazing success. The rumors are wild, but estimates are that Bill Benter earns something around US$10, 000,000 annually from Hong Kong horse racing. More than every other industry, Horse Racing is based on emotion and emotions, people place bets based on everything from the horse\u2019s name to tips from a buddy. Nowhere more than the notoriously superstitious Hong Kong race tracks. William Benter used computer logic to beat the system, and make millions! \u2013 William Benter Biography \u2013 Born and raised in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, William Benter began utilizing his mathematics skills to count cards. Legend has it that in the mid-70s Benter came across the book Beat the Dealer, memorized its strategies and began his professional gaming career at the blackjack tables of Las Vegas.\nIn the same time Bill Benter had been banned from majority of the Vegas strips casinos, he met the card counter Alan Woods, and the couple decided to have a shot at horse racing. In the year 1984, Benter and Woods went Hong Kong, starting with a mere $150, 000. The pair relied on their mathematical ability to create a formula for choosing race winners. When Woods and Benter parted ways, in 1987, Benter perfected his computerized probability model. William Benter is now known as having the best statistical handicap method, assigning numerical values to estimate a horse\u2019s probability of winning.\nBenter has acknowledged that the escalation in computer technology have helped his teams workload through the years, while more experience has also allowed this professional punter more accurate betting. For instance, while Benter started out examining only 16 variables for each horse in a race, it\u2019s now alleged that his team score horses on120 different handicapping factors. William Benters pioneering work with computerized gambling, his mathematical skill and knowledge, all have made him probably the most successful gamblers the horse racing industry had ever seen. Benter is generous with his fortune, donating to charitable causes both in Hong Kong and America.

I wanted to expand on the concept of how the family unit can be disrupted by mental illness, and how it is easy to be seen as a bad person when you are making your family struggle, even when it isn't your fault.

        "raw_content": "Trump: Israeli-Palestinian peace would be 'ultimate deal'\nShortly after securing the election win, Trump invited Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to meet with him in the United States at the earliest opportunity.\nDonald Trump. (photo credit: REUTERS/JOE RAEDLE/POOL)\nPresident elect-Donald Trump wasted no time placing the Israeli-Palestinian conflict high on his foreign policy agenda, telling The Wall Street Journal on Friday that he hopes to end the conflict after taking office in January.\n\u201cThat\u2019s the ultimate deal,\u201d said Trump. \u201cAs a deal maker, I\u2019d like to do \u2026 the deal that can\u2019t be made. And to do it for humanity\u2019s sake. He referred to the conflict as the \u201cwar that never ends.\u201d\nJust one day after the election Trump invited Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to meet with him in the United States as soon as possible.\nThe Israeli Right has welcomed Trump\u2019s election to office, hoping it brings to an end to the animosity that existed between the Netanyahu government and US President Barack Obama\u2019s administration. Donald Trump addressing the AIPAC conference\nMany on the Israeli Right have euphorically speculated that there would finally be a president in the White House who moves the US Embassy to Jerusalem, and accepts the idea that settlement activity is not a stumbling block to peace.\nBut Trump\u2019s statements about his future negotiations are likely to have little impact on activity that could happen in the next two months until Obama leaves office.\n\u201cI can\u2019t rule out that there may be a new initiative before the end of this administration,\u201d State Department spokesman Mark Toner told reporters in Washington on Thursday.\nIsrael has been concerned that this could include support for a UN Security Council resolution that condemns settlement activity, or that would set the terms of a final state agreement with the Palestinians.\nThe French are pushing for an international peace conference on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict at the end of July. Russian President Vladimir Putin has offered Moscow as a venue for direct talks between Netanyahu and Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas as soon as possible. But Russian Prime Minister Dimitry Medvedev ended his three-day visit to Israel and the Palestinian territories on Friday, having signed separate economic agreements with both governments, but without setting a date for such talks.\nHe told Russian reporters that the initiative at this point \u201cis at stage zero. I have discussed the issue during my talks with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and with President Mahmoud Abbas. Both sides have stated that a direct dialogue is a necessity, yet there is no final agreement on holding this kind of meeting. Our country is ready to act as a mediator.\u201d\nIn addition, Medvedev said Russia plans to continue its efforts within the Quartet to resolve the conflict.\n\u201cThe stance of other countries in the process will be crucial including the position of the United States, which has not been particularly active in this issue,\u201d he said. \u201cPerhaps their activity will increase after the change of administration.\u201d\nAbbas told reporters in Jericho that \u201cwe have already sent our congratulations to Donald Trump, and will now wait to see what he will do when he takes office. We demand that the United States recognize the state of Palestine, and agree to work toward achieving a solution that results in two states, Palestine and Israel, living side by side in an atmosphere of security.\u201d Abbas spoke in Arabic, and a translation of his words was provided by the Russian government.\nHe explained that he spoke with Medvedev about Palestinian suffering at the hands of Israel, and warned that continued settlement activity is undermining the \u201cfoundations\u201d of a peaceful solution.\nThe Palestinians, Abbas said, are ready to reach an agreement with Israel based on \u201cinternationally recognized resolutions\u201d and the Arab Peace Initiative.\nHe said that he is open to the Russian initiative, but wants to know what would be discussed.\n\u201cBenjamin Netanyahu must realize that unless he begins to have faith in the two-state solution, no peace can be achieved,\u201d Abbas said. \u201cWe expect Netanyahu to say one short phrase: \u2018I support the two-state solution within the 1967 borders.\u2019\u201d Abbas has refused to hold such talks with Netanyahu, unless he agrees to halt settlement activity and to withdraw to the pre-1967 lines. Israel, in contrast, has called on the Palestinians to hold direct talks without preconditions.\nThe last round of US brokered talks, which did not involve a Netanyahu-Abbas meeting, broke down in 2014.\nIt is precisely this stalemate that Trump hopes to break. In the days immediately after the election, Trump\u2019s advisers gave a number of interviews on what Israel can expect from Trump when he enters office.\nThey were divided over the question of whether the campaign pledge to move the United States Embassy to Jerusalem would now be fulfilled.\n\u201cMany prime ministers of Israel have that close to their heart,\u201d said adviser Walid Phares. \u201cMany presidents of the US have committed to do that, and he [Trump] said as well he would do that.\u201d Then he added a caveat to the pledge.\n\u201cBut [Trump] would do that in consensus,\u201d Phares said. He issued the statement in an interview with BBC radio that was widely publicized by CNN on Thursday.\n\u201cThe other thing he has said that we need to pay attention to; he is ready and he will immediately move to try to solve the problem between Palestinians and Israelis, something lingering for many years. It won\u2019t be impossible for him to broker a deal between Israelis and Palestinians, at least he is going to go in that direction and not waste eight years, or at least four years for now, not doing anything for Palestinians and Israelis,\" Phares said.\nTrump adviser David Friedman told The Jerusalem Post on Wednesday that one of the administration\u2019s first moves would be to follow through on the campaign promise made last month by Trump's daughter, Ivanka, who said her father would move the US Embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.\n\u201cIt was a campaign promise, and there is every intention to keep it,\u201d Friedman said.\nAnother adviser, Jason Greenblatt, made a similar statement to Army Radio on Thursday.\nImmediately after Trump\u2019s election, Jerusalem Mayor Nir Barkat tweeted, \u201cIn your term as president, I am confident that you will continue to empower our city by reaffirming its sovereignty and moving the US Embassy to Jerusalem.\u201d\nCongress has long called for the relocation of the embassy, and in 1995 approved the Jerusalem Embassy Act, which mandated that this must be done by May 31, 1999.\nBut Obama, along with former presidents Bill Clinton and George Bush, have used a presidential waiver to avoid executing the act, claiming that it was not in the country\u2019s national security interest to do so.\nAt the State Department briefing in Washington later in the day, deputy spokesman Mark Toner explained that \u201csince Israel\u2019s founding, the administrations of both parties have maintained a consistent policy here and that is recognizing no state as having sovereignty over Jerusalem.\u201d\nHe added that the Obama administration remains committed to this policy. Toner added that the Obama administration would make sure the new administration would understand \u201cour rationale behind exercising that waiver.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "UPDATE: BALCA clarifies 180-day rule, declines to follow GE Energy\nNews Release from Jewell & Associates, PC \u2013 September 19, 2012 Employers and business immigration law practitioners are familiar with the challenge presented by labor market test timelines in the labor certification (LC) process. In a previous blog post we noted the confusion caused in that regard by the 2011 decision of the Board of Alien Labor Certification Appeals (BALCA) in General Electric Company 2010-PER-763. In that case the panel turned the common-sense understanding of the labor market test\u2019s 180-day rule \u2013 that all recruitment must be started and completed within the 180 days prior to an LC being filed \u2013 on its head by holding that an LC application must be filed \u201cat least 30 days, but no more than 180 days, after the end date of its [State Workforce Agency] job order, not the start date.\u201d\nNow a BALCA panel has confirmed our misgivings with General Electric by expressly refusing to follow its reasoning. In Industrial Steel Products 2012-PER-542 the Certifying Officer had denied the LC because the job order was placed more than 180 days prior to the LC filing date, in violation of the regulatory rule that the recruitment steps must be conducted at least 30 days, but no more than 180 days, before the filing of the application. (See 20 C.F.R. \u00a7 656.17(e)(2) for nonprofessional positions, as in Industrial Steel; and 656.17(e)(1)(i) for professional positions, as in General Electric.) The employer argued, relying on General Electric, that this 180-day window began on the end date of the SWA job order and so its LC was filed on time.\nBALCA affirmed the denial. It noted, as we did, that as recently as Blue Mountain Stone Inc. 2010-PER-481 a panel had explained that the word \u201cconducted\u201d in the regulation, when it relates to 180 days, means that recruitment must begin no more than 180 days prior to the filing, because it becomes stale if too much time passes between it and the filing of the application. The Board also noted that the en banc decision in Karl Storz Endoscopy 2011-PER-40, though focused on the validity dates of a prevailing wage determination, was consistent with Blue Mountain Stone insofar as the Board ruled that \u201c[f]or the purposes of Section 656.17(e) . . . the \u2018recruitment period\u2019 refers to the six- month period prior to filing, during which all of an employer\u2019s recruitment must be conducted.\u201d\nIndustrial Steel therefore puts a confusing episode of BALCA case law to rest, and employers and practitioners can cheer the restoration of a common-sense approach to calculating the labor market test timeline.\nNewer PostTwo BALCA cases address rejection of U.S. workers in the PERM process\nOlder PostU.S. Embassy in India announces new visa processing system",

Lewis \"The Weight of Glory\"\nThis quote speaks to what I believe about every student; it is what I believe about your student. Because this of this truth, I consider teaching your student a privilege. It is a weighty responsibility to teach, encourage, and influence this next generation, and I want to do it to the best of my ability. This also means that I expect the best from your students. I expect their best behavior, their best questions, their best effort. I have high standards, and I work hard to help each student reach beyond what they expect of themselves and to accomplish more than they think possible. When we give them the chance, we find what they can do is extraordinary.\nMy classes are organized around lecture, discussion, and note-taking components. The assignments are relevant to our reading and also geared to help each student gain skills that will help them as they move forward in their schooling - wherever they end up. Reading good literature, analyzing historical events, responding to comprehension questions, practicing oral presentations, and participating in non-threatening class discussions allows the students to develop a wide range of skills to carry them through future classes. I provide a syllabus and stay in regular contact with parents if there are changes that need to be made. Also, I am available for questions and extra sessions as needed.\nI keep track of graded assignments and provide semester and year-end grades. However, the parent has the final word on the grade the student earns. With once per week classes, it is impossible for me to know the full amount of work your student is doing, the time and effort she is putting into each assignment, and any other parts of school that would contribute to her final grade. I consider myself a \"secondary source\" for information on what your student knows and how your student is progressing. I want to help and encourage and challenge. The grade on record is up to you.\nI am serious about learning, but I am also very serious about loving to learn. That is my biggest goal in working with any student.",

        "raw_content": "on parenting and advice columns and the natural progression of time\non the way home late last night, i listened to a couple episodes of the dear sugar podcast. it's the one with cheryl strayed of wild fame. i'm not sure what it is about advice programs on the radio - there's also one on saturday mornings on danish radio and it's somehow fascinating, even when people's problems seem far from my own. there's something comforting in listening to other people's problems and the opinions that the agony aunts (and uncles) have about them. cheryl and steve almond (who was sugar before her) are surprisingly compassionate and deep. i'll admit sometimes when i hear the letters people write in, i wonder how they're ever going to take it seriously and not just tell the person to suck it up or piss off, but they always do, in a compassionate and empathetic way, without being sappy. it's a delicate balance and they strike it.\nit seems like parenting and especially motherhood is often a topic and it got me thinking. i never wanted children. i was traumatized by my high school boyfriend's older sister getting pregnant in high school and going to her wedding instead of her senior prom, missing out on a basketball scholarship and not going to college. i also viewed my own mother as singularly unselfish and doing everything to give my sister and i all of the great experiences she could and i felt i could never be like that. so, i went around for 30 some years, not wanting children. but then i met husband and it started to seem like a good idea. and although along came sabin a bit before i was entirely ready, i have not once regretted becoming a parent. of course, parenting has its moments of frustration and no sleep, but overall, i have generally been in awe of this whole, amazing person that i made and feel like some kind of privileged bystander who gets to watch her grow up into the confident, funny, opinionated and smart young woman that was somehow there within her all along.\nshe's away this year at a boarding school, coming home one or two weekends a month. next school year, she'll be in the states, getting a high school experience. people often ask me if i'm not horribly sad that she's not at home. and perhaps it will make me sound like one of those dear sugar parents who hates being a parent when i say that i'm not. i love watching her blossom into who she will be - confident, finding her way, learning who she is and what her style is. and being away at boarding school was the natural next step in that process, just as going to the states next year is the next step after that. it's how she will find her way to being who and what she wants to be. she needs us less. it's completely normal and natural and i don't feel sad about it. i feel happy and proud that she's come so far and is ready and embracing these experiences and finding her way.\nbut, i can see on some of the faces of people who ask me, that they think i'm a bit heartless for not missing her more. of course, i do miss her, but i get texts from her pretty much daily, so it's not like we're not in contact. but there are parts of her life, her inner life especially, that are hers now and not mine to share. and that's just fine! it's how it should be, it's time for that. i hope that we've given her a solid foundation from which to unfold her wings and i am secure in the knowledge that she knows that we're here, should she need to rest them.\namazing photos of a place both frozen and abandoned by russian photographer andrei shapran.\nLabels: an unexamined life is not worth living, parenting and other mysteries, podcasts, raising sabin, resourcest\u00e6rke for\u00e6ldre and a little bit not, sabin is so cool\nParenting is about preparing them for the big wide world and it sounds like you've got it nailed Julie. x",

Apparently, this is not the first time that Tyson has faced similar litigation .\nAfter a decade-long battle in another legal situation, Tyson agreed to settle a dispute with the U.S. Department of Labor. The company agreed to pay poultry workers for the time that they spent donning and removing their specialized protective clothing at work. In its current battle, Tyson has appealed to the high court to dismiss the case, saying that employees should not be permitted to use statistical evidence to prove a case.\nTexas employees who believe that they, too have suffered wage and hour injustices or other types of harassment in the workplace may wish to consider filing legal claims in court. It is advisable to first discuss the details of a situation with a professional employment attorney in the area. He or she would have an understanding of the law that could help determine how best to proceed in order to pursue justice in court.\nSource: 12newsnow.com, \"Justices skeptical of Tyson Foods in class-action case\", Mark Sherman, Accessed on Nov. 10, 2015",

The album peaked at number one on U.S. Country Charts and produced another hit single No Such Thing as a Broken Heart.\nThe album was followed up by acclaimed record Meat and Candy in 2015, which hailed several hits including Break Up With Him, Snapback, and Song For Another Time.\nAlthough the five-member band, including Matthew Ramsey (lead vocals), Whit Sellers (drums), Geoff Sprung (bass guitar), Brad Tursi (guitar) and Rosen, are hitting a high note it wasn\u2019t too long ago they were struggling to be noticed.\n\u201cI remember playing for $50 and free beer,\u201d Rosen said. \u201cWe\u2019ll never forget those days. There are times, we have all these employees now and multiple buses and trucks, we look at it and remember the five of us in a little minivan touring around.\u201d\nAll the Old Dominion members have a long history in Nashville but as writers not frontmen.\n\u201cI grew up playing in bands. I moved to Nashville for various reasons, mostly for the writing. But I think we all dreamed of getting a record deal at one time or another. At some point we all decided we wanted to be the best writers we could.\u201d\nMembers have written hit songs for country greats including Kenny Chesney, Blake Shelton and many others.\nRosen said in the earlier days of the band they used to play a lot of covers, but now fans want to hear their originals.\n\u201cThey want to hear us and that\u2019s great,\u201d he said. \u201cWe love playing music. We loved it when we were in a band and broke. We love it now and are excited all day till we get to play.\u201d\nOld Dominion plays the South Okanagan Events Centre with special guests Cold Creek County and The Washboard Union Sun., Feb. 11.

        "raw_content": "The beauty of a visual schedule\nAugust 02, 2012 / Karen Wilson\nby Karen This is a post in an ongoing series I'm doing for Kids in the Capital to talk about our experience in going through the assessment process for our son, Brandon. My hope is to give ideas and insight to families of special needs children, as well as some creative ideas for families who want to incorporate different ideas, all while raising awareness and telling our story.\nA couple of months ago, we took Brandon to a speech pathologist for a series of assessments on his speech/language skills. It was an interesting process. I got to see a very concentrated view of his transitioning abilities, which is an area we've had challenges with for a long time.\nAnd let's face it: Change is hard!\nThe speech pathologist gave us two really good tactics (and even made some of the tools for us to start with)!\n\"First then\" is a shortened visual schedule method. We've used it to emphasize pieces of the overall daily schedule at times. Other times we use it to make it clear to Brandon that before he can do what he wants, there's something he needs to do.\nHaving a visual reference gives a more concrete understanding of what's going on, particularly for children who comprehend visual information more readily than verbal, as is the case with Brandon (based on my personal observations).\nA visual schedule is portable, flexible and gives an overview of the entire day or a block of time that has a series of transitions. When we use it (and admittedly, we don't always think about it), transitions go more smoothly. We discuss the schedule as we're laying it out and Brandon gets to provide input.\n(It cracks me up when he removes bedtime from the schedule, though I'm always super serious and never let him know it's funny. Yeah, right. ;))\nOur visual schedule consists of an odd mish mash of items, but as we get deeper into using this as a tool, I am thinking of lots more to add to it.\nGetting Brandon involved gives him a sense of control about his activities. This is important for him. He needs to feel safe and secure in knowing what's coming next. We don't like to plan our weekends and often regret not having a plan because we haven't equipped ourselves to adequately prepare Brandon to move from one activity to the next. (We're a work in progress!)\nThe visual schedule and first then tools would be useful for any child, though some clearly benefit more than others. If you're interested in putting one together, here are a couple resources to help you get started (Google can tell you loads more!):\nFactsheet for autism therapy: visual schedules, by Healing Threshold\nHow-to Templates: Visual Schedules (PDF), by HANDS in Autism\nBecause we're a tech geek family, I was keen to find out what was available for our iDevices. Turns out there's quite a bit! GadgetsDNA.com did a review of \"10 Revolutionary iPad Apps to Help Autistic Children\" and I think there's one I'm going to check for a free trial version with the intent to buy if it's good. They range from free to nearly $200 for more sophisticated functionality. (Depending on a child's needs, that $200 may be a cheap expense. iPods/iPads - we've found - are fantastic for helping Brandon explore and learn.)\nThese tools were my first glimpse of how the pros would end up helping us learn to cope differently. There is a heightened level of attention to detail required of us to accommodate Brandon's needs, but he's worth it. Besides, the right kind of attention mixed with the right frequency has never been known to hurt a child.\nKaren Wilson is a wife to Matt and mom to Brandon (4), who blogs about her life at Karen\u2019s Chronicles. She can be found at Wellman Wilson, helping businesses use social media more effectively. Karen is also committed to doing her part to keep the coffee industry alive, because who needs sleep?\nAugust 02, 2012 / Karen Wilson/ Comment\nApp Store, Autism, autism spectrum disorders, first then, IPad, IPod Touch, Special needs, special needs assessment, Speech and language pathology, Speech Therapy, visual schedule\nFlashback: Riding the Rails Ottawa ...",

        "raw_content": "Is Estate Planning Now Dead?\nThanks to the new tax law, that's what some people may think. But estate planning is about a lot more than just taxes.\nWith the passage of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 at the end of last year, the federal estate, gift and generation-skipping tax exemptions doubled to $11.18 million per person. That means that a married couple can now pass over $22 million of property estate tax-free on the federal level. Given these high exemption amounts, approximately 99.9% of all U.S. citizens and residents are no longer subject to these taxes.\nSEE ALSO: 8 Reasons Why Your Estate Plan May Now Be Worthless\nWith the death of the so-called \"death tax\" for so many people, some may be wondering whether estate planning matters anymore. While the reduction of estate taxes has long been a major goal for estate planning, the answer is a resounding YES, there are still many reasons why estate planning remains relevant. A well-considered estate plan can help reduce overall costs when a family member dies, ease family tensions and ensure an inheritance will be used as intended.\nConsider the following issues that can be dealt with by estate planning:\nState Estate and Inheritance Taxes Exist for Many\nEven though federal estate taxes may no longer be an issue, 12 states have an estate tax and six states have an inheritance tax. And just to be clear, there is a difference between estate taxes and inheritance taxes. Estate taxes are typically imposed at the estate level, while inheritance taxes are imposed based upon who inherits the property, with lower tax rates for individuals more closely related to the decedent.\nWhile spouses typically receive all property free of both estate and inheritance tax, children and other beneficiaries do not. Planning can help reduce, or possibly, eliminate these taxes. Some techniques to consider to help lessen the potential tax burden include:\nThe use of credit shelter trusts (which help to make sure you use all available state estate tax exemption amounts).\nChanging domicile (to relocate to a state without an estate or inheritance tax).\nGiving away property during your life (since most states do not have gift taxes and the federal gift tax limit is $11.18 million, so most people can give away property without needing to pay federal gift taxes).\nProbate Can be Costly\nWhen someone owns assets in their name (without a joint owner or a named beneficiary), probate is necessary to access the asset after death. Probate is a process where a court grants access to the property. Depending upon the state, probate can be costly and take many months or even years to complete.\nAn estate plan can be set up to avoid probate and the fees associated with going to court. Revocable trusts can be very helpful to avoid probate because any asset owned by the trust or payable to the trust upon death avoids probate. By avoiding probate, families can have more immediate access to assets and save on legal and court fees.\nSee Also: 5 Things Your Kids Should Know Before They Inherit Your Money\nMany Beneficiaries Have Issues\nAn estate plan determines who inherits your assets and when they will inherit them. The people you would like to benefit can have a whole array of possible issues, including creditors, divorce, mental illness, substance abuse, special needs, being too young to manage assets or just being bad with finances.\nTaking into account these issues in the estate plan can protect and preserve those assets so that your intended recipient(s) can benefit from the assets. For example, if you leave your assets outright to your son so that he controls the asset, and he subsequently gets divorced or is sued, he could lose the asset in the divorce or the lawsuit. A trust can help protect the assets in these situations.\nBlended Families are Common and Can Be Complicated\nBlended families \u2014 step-parents, half-siblings, step-siblings or children raised within the family but not legally adopted \u2014 are very common. A typical estate plan for married couples, where one spouse leaves all of the assets to the survivor, many times will create issues for blended families.\nAfter the death of the first spouse, if all the assets are left to the survivor, he or she can change his or her will and cut out the step-children. This scenario is quite typical \u2014 I have come across this type of situation many times and, in fact, am dealing with two such cases right now \u2014 and when this happens there is usually nothing the step-children can do to receive an inheritance. An estate plan that uses trusts can guarantee that all of the children inherit as intended by both spouses.\nNuclear Families Have Issues, Too\nMany times it can be difficult for siblings to settle the parents\u2019 estate after the death of the survivor. When settling an estate, resentments that have been buried for years can resurface after the parents are gone. These resentments can be exacerbated if the siblings need to cooperate with one another to divide up household goods and to deal with real estate.\nFor example, if real estate is left to all children in equal shares, everyone needs to agree to sell the real estate, and they need to agree on the sales price as well. That\u2019s a lot of agreeing that needs to be done, and during a stressful time as well.\nPlanning can help minimize or eliminate these issues. The estate plan can detail who is in charge, what assets should be sold and who receives specific property.\nThese are just a few of the issues that an estate plan can address and should accomplish. Too many people wrongly believe the fundamental purpose of estate planning is to avoid taxes. It is not. At its core, estate planning is about leaving a legacy and ensuring the wealth you have created will impact your family in a positive way \u2014 and not cause confusion or conflict. With that, it is clear that estate planning will indeed live on.\nSee Also: How Losing a Spouse Could Boost a Survivor's Taxes",

        "raw_content": "Boston Public actor Fyvush Finkel dead at 93\nNEW YORK (AP) \u2014 Actor Fyvush Finkel, the plastic-faced character actor whose career in stage and screen started in Yiddish theater and led to memorable roles in \"Fiddler on the Roof\" on Broadway and on TV in \"Boston Public\" and \"Picket Fences\" has died, his son said Monday. He was 93.\nFinkel, who was known for his mischievous smile and an ability to prop his ears at an angle for optimum comic effect, died early Sunday in Manhattan, said his son, Ian. He said his father had suffered heart problems for months.\nHe was a comedian, a singer, a stage actor, a film actor and a noted TV performer, from \"Fantasy Island\" to \"Blue Bloods.\" He celebrated his 80th birthday on the set of \"Boston Public,\" playing history teacher Harvey Lipschultz.\n\"He did everything,\" Ian Finkel said. \"That seems to be a trait of the old-time performers. They could all sing and dance and act and everything. It's so wonderful.\"\nFinkel's long career began at age 9 in 1930 when a production in his Brooklyn neighborhood was looking for a boy to sing \"Oh, Promise Me.\" Recalled Finkel in a 2002 interview: \"I stopped that show cold. They gave me a dollar a night.\"\nIn the vibrant Yiddish theater of the period, a solid performer could find steady work. Finkel studied singing, dancing and acting at a $1-a-week school. But his parents insisted he learn a trade just in case showbiz didn't pan out.\nA stint as a furrier was over quick. \"I ruined about $500 worth of material,\" he said.\nHe found himself back onstage when his new, mature voice settled in. He took a job with Yiddish theater in Pittsburgh just shy of his 18th birthday. \"I thought, 'This is where I belong.' And I've been in the theater ever since.\"\nIn 1964, as Yiddish theater was dying, he was hired for the touring company of the Broadway hit \"Fiddler on the Roof.\" He later said: \"I went to do 'Fiddler' for less money than I was getting in Yiddish theater, but I had to make the move. And it was the best move I ever made.\"\nIn \"Fiddler on the Roof,\" he played Mordcha, and he took on the role of Tevye the milkman in a national touring production in 1981. In his last appearance on Broadway in 1989's \"Cafe Crown,\" Finkel earned a Drama Desk Award nomination.\nAt age 60, after 12 years with various productions of \"Fiddler on the Roof,\" he was cast in the off-Broadway musical \"Little Shop of Horrors.\" That opened up movies and TV for him, including \"Brighton Beach Memoirs\" (1986), \"Q&A\" (1990) and \"Nixon\" (1995).\n\"If you retire, you shrivel up. No doubt about it,\" he said in 2002.\nFinkel was married to Trudi Lieberman for 61 years until her death in 2008. His survivors include his two sons: Ian, a musical arranger and xylophone virtuoso, and Elliot, a concert pianist; and five grandchildren.",

        "raw_content": "2016-FEB-Ethics-Osman-Kurata\nBy Joel A. Osman and Melissa M. Kurata. Mr. Osman, senior counsel at Parker Mills LLP, concentrates his practice on litigation and trials. His current professional activities include membership in LACBA's Professional Responsibility and Ethics Committee, where he was the chairperson for the 2008-09 year. He is in the first year of a three-year term as a member of the State Bar's Committee on Professional Responsibility and Conduct. Ms. Kurata is an associate with Parker Mills LLP, where she focuses her practice on general business litigation. She is an active member of the Japanese American Bar Association and serves on the Programs Committee. The opinions expressed are their own.\nSignificant ethical issues arise whenever a lawyer undertakes the concurrent representation of more than one client in connection with a given matter. Some of these issues have the benefit of a well-developed body of law that makes them clear. For other questions, the law continues to develop. A recent California Supreme Court decision provides additional guidance to one of the murkier problems posed by this situation.\nRule of Professional Conduct 3-110 (F) generally sets forth the conditions under which a member of the bar may accept compensation for representing a client from someone other than the client. The most common circumstance in which this occurs is in the context of liability insurance. For many years, it has been well understood that a tripartite attorney-client relationship exists in which both the insurer and its insured are clients of the retained defense counsel.1 In recognition of this, the comments to 3-110 state:\nParagraph (F) is not intended to abrogate existing relationships between insurers and insureds whereby the insurer has the contractual right to unilaterally select counsel for the insured, where there is no conflict of interest.\nOur understanding of the relationship between an insurer, its insured, and defense counsel was expanded in 1984 when the Fourth District Court of Appeal handed down its decision in San Diego Naval Federal Credit Union v. Cumis Insurance Society (1984) 162 Cal. App. 3d 358. The Cumis court held that when a conflict (i.e., over coverage) existed between the insurer and the insured, defense counsel retained by the insurer could not properly represent both \u201cclients\u201d in the tripartite relationship by virtue of the inherent conflict of interest between them. The Cumis court therefore held that in such a situation, the insurer must pay for independent counsel of the insured\u2019s choosing to represent it in the underlying dispute.2 This ruling was subsequently codified in Civil Code Section 2860.3\nUntil recently, other than the provisions of Civil Code Section 2860, there was scant law clarifying what rights, if any, the insurer retained vis-\u00e0-vis the independent counsel for which it is on occasion required to pay.4 The recent supreme court decision in Hartford Casualty Insurance Company v. J.R. Marketing, L.L.C. (2015) 61 Cal. 4th 988 provides some, but not a lot, much-needed insight. In that case, the supreme court held that even when an insurer is required to pay for \u201cindependent counsel\u201d to represent its insured, the insurer may still bring a direct claim against the independent counsel to recover \u201cunreasonable and unnecessary\u201d fees charged by said independent counsel.\nIn Hartford v. J.R. Marketing, J.R. Marketing, L.L.C. had a commercial general liability (CGL) policy with Hartford Casualty Insurance Company (Hartford). When J.R. Marketing was sued, Hartford initially disclaimed coverage but agreed to defend under a reservation of rights. A coverage action was initiated. The court in the coverage case found that Hartford had a duty to defend and that J.R. Marketing was entitled to independent Cumis counsel. J.R. Marketing retained Squire Sanders as Cumis counsel.5 The court in the coverage case then issued an enforcement order, directing Hartford to pay all defense invoices and future defense costs. The order was drafted by Squire Sanders and adopted by the court. The order stated Hartford breached its defense obligations by refusing to provide Cumis counsel until ordered to do so and by failing to pay counsel\u2019s submitted bills in a timely fashion. The order also declared that although Squire Sanders\u2019 bills \u201chad to be reasonable and necessary,\u201d Hartford was precluded from invoking the rate provisions of Civil Code Section 2860 because of its breach. Furthermore, the order said the insurer could challenge any unreasonable and unnecessary fees in a reimbursement action after conclusion of the underlying suit.\nHartford then brought a cross-complaint against Squire Sanders seeking reimbursement of monies paid pursuant to the enforcement order, along with claims for unjust enrichment, accounting, and rescission. Squire Sanders demurred to the cross-complaint, which was sustained by the trial court and affirmed on appeal. The supreme court reversed the appellate court\u2019s ruling, holding that when an insurer pays Cumis counsel\u2019s fees under a court order expressly preserving the insurer\u2019s right to recover \u201cunreasonable and unnecessary\u201d fees, the insurer may proceed directly against Cumis counsel under principles of restitution and unjust enrichment. The supreme court emphasized its ruling was based on the trial court\u2019s order providing that Hartford could challenge Squire Sanders\u2019 bills in a subsequent reimbursement action. The supreme court noted that, because the trial court\u2019s order expressly allowed Hartford to seek reimbursement of excessive fees, it was not required to decide whether, absent such an order, an insurer that breached its duty to defend would be entitled to seek reimbursement of Cumis counsel\u2019s allegedly excessive fees.\nFuture implications. The Hartford decision is decidedly narrow. The majority opinion and the concurrence go out of their way to emphasize that the holding was limited to the unusual facts before it, especially the fact that a court order drafted by the law firm authorized the insurer to seek reimbursement directly from the law firm. In footnote 7, the court specifically emphasized that it was not addressing the following: (1) \u201cwhether, absent such an order, an insurer that breaches its defense obligations has any right to recover excessive fees it paid Cumis counsel\u201d (emphasis in original); (2) \u201cwhether, in general, a dispute over allegedly excessive fees is more appropriately decided through a court action or an arbitration\u201d; and (3) \u201cwhen such fee disputes generally ought to be decided relative to the underlying litigation\u201d (emphasis in original).\nObviously, given the narrowness of the holding, this new case does not resolve most of the questions left unanswered by the Cumis decision or Civil Code Section 2860. It does, however, provide at least one more brick along the road to ethical enlightenment. Even within the narrow facts of the holding in this case, it is evident that there are still significant hurdles for insurers seeking reimbursement of fees from Cumis counsel. The insurer has the burden of proving its right to reimbursement, and it must show not only that the fees it seeks to recover from Cumis counsel were not \u201cobjectively reasonable at the time they were incurred, under the circumstances then known to counsel\u201d but also that \u201cthe fees were not incurred for [the insured\u2019s] benefit.\u201d This burden is further compounded by the fact that \u201cabsent evidence to the contrary, we should presume that the insured, as the client controlling Cumis counsel\u2019s defense of the third party action, was the entity that primarily benefited from any fees incurred.\u201d\n1 State Farm Mutual Automobile Ins.

        "title": "Hoffman Mining Company, Inc. v. Zoning Hearing Board of Adams Township (2008) - Pennsylvania Land Use Law Library",
        "raw_content": "Hoffman leased an 182 acre tract of land and submitted an application for a variance to allow surface mining within 300 feet of residences. The applicable zoning ordinance required a 1000 foot setback from residences for surface mining. Hoffman claimed that the ordinance was preempted by the Surface Mining Conversation and Reclamation Act (SMCRA), which required only a 300 foot setback from residences. Three separate hearings were held before the Board. At these hearings, an engineer testified that there would be sufficient erosion control and storm water management, that the noise and lights would be kept to a minimum and that no drilling or blasting would take place in the evenings. Engineers also testified that after the mining was complete, the property would be restored, and that the entire process of mining and restoring would take about four years. The business manager of Hoffman testified that without the Township setback, $9 million worth of coal could be mined; however, if the setback was imposed, only $900,000 worth of coal could be mined. Many residents expressed concern over the safety of children playing in the area, blasting related damages to the homes, noise and storm water problems.\nThe Board found that the ordinance was not preempted by the SMCRA. The Board also found that there was substantial health, safety, and welfare issues which weigh against a 300 foot setback. Therefore, the Board denied the request for a variance. Hoffman appealed to the trial court, which dismissed the appeal and affirmed the Board\u2019s decision. Hoffman then appealed to the Commonwealth Court. Hoffman argued that the SMCRA preempts the ordinance and pointed out the provision in the SMRCA that provides \u201c[t]he Commonwealth by this enactment hereby preempts the regulation of surface mining as herein.\u201d Therefore, Hoffman argued that the ordinance is specifically preempted.\nTo determine if a state statute preempts local regulation, it must be clearly shown that the General Assembly intended to preempt the field by its legislation. There is a presumption against preemption because what may be preempted is the ability of the municipality to address the needs of its citizens. The Commonwealth Court specifically examined whether the SMCRA expressly preempted all zoning regulations enacted after the adoption of the SMCRA because Hoffman argued that only zoning ordinances adopted prior to the SMCRA were not preempted. The Commonwealth Court also reviewed other cases involving preemption and found that the zoning ordinances that regulate traditional zoning subjects are not preempted. Therefore, the Commonwealth Court found that the ordinance at issue here was not preempted because it contains a regulation of distance from which surface mining may be conducted next to a residential structure, and that this is land use control that should not be preempted.\nAlternatively, Hoffman argued that it is entitled to a variance because without it, the zoning regulation would amount to a confiscation and the variance is necessary to permit reasonable use of the land. However, Hoffman did not present any other evidence that the property could not be used for anything else if it could not be used to mine coal. Further, the potential effect on the health, safety and welfare would weigh against the reduction of the 1000 foot setback. Thus, the Commonwealth Court affirmed the denial of the variance.",

        "raw_content": "Advocates Push for Trump to Support Bipartisan DREAM Act\nPhoto by Latino Rebels\nIn response to a Monday report from McClatchy that senators Dick Durbin (D-IL) and Lindsey Graham (R-SC) are working on a new version of DREAM Act, one of the country\u2019s top immigrant rights groups has created a petition, asking the Trump administration and Republicans to immediately co-sponsor the bill.\nHere is the copy of the petition text from Dream Activist:\nI write to you today to ask that your administration urge Republican members of Congress to immediately co-sponsor and pass the DREAM Act. Your administration has spoken out in support of Dreamers, and now is the time for action.\nSince being first introduced in 2001, the DREAM Act has had widespread bipartisan support. This bill would allow the over 65,000 undocumented youth who graduate from American high schools each year a chance to finally be able to give back to their country. With the DREAM Act, these students will be able to study and work to contribute to the process of Making America Great Again.\nYour administration has an opportunity to continue to make history and do what others have failed to, including President Obama who initially promised to pass the DREAM Act in his first 100 days in office. I urge your administration to push for the immediate passage of the DREAM Act and to call on congressional Republicans to support this effort.\nOther groups have also shared their reactions to the news of a new DREAM Act. Here is what Kamal Essaheb, policy and advocacy director at the National Immigration Law Center, said via a statement:\nFive years ago, the DACA program unlocked the door for immigrant youth who had previously been unfairly shut out from many of the opportunities enjoyed by their peers. Hundreds of thousands of DACA recipients are now going to school, working, and contributing more fully to our communities. DACA is hugely successful, and President Trump must keep it, regardless of any legislative prospect for a longer-term solution.\nSince Trump took office, his administration\u2019s doublespeak on DACA has forced immigrant youth to grapple with uncertainty and fear. The renewed introduction of the Dream Act, which has always enjoyed broad, bipartisan support, underscores the urgency of continuing to protect immigrant youth and to keep in place policies that allow them to thrive. Anything short of that would not only be morally wrong, it would be disastrous for communities and the economy.\nAs the president has said, the future of DACA is his decision to make. In making his decision, he can\u2019t succumb to bullying by anti-immigrant hardliners trying to force his hand, and he must not forget that the lives of hundreds of thousands of people and their families hang in the balance. It\u2019s past time for the president to stand definitively by the DACA program.\nThis is what United We Dream\u2019s Greisa Martinez Rosas, a DACA beneficiary, said via her statement:\nToday, 800,000 immigrant youth are protected from deportation and can work because of the DACA program and hundreds of thousands are protected by the TPS program. Both of these protections are under threat because of extremist anti-immigrant politicians who must be stopped.\nUnited We Dream calls on all people of conscience and political leaders who support immigrants to organize and protect the DACA & TPS programs now.\nThe vision of United We Dream is to win permanent protection, citizenship and equity for all of our communities and our leaders will continue working steadily toward that goal. The news of a possible new Dream Act does not change our goal: to protect our families.\nLegislation or not, we must organize to protect immigrants and Secretary Kelly and the President must keep the DACA promise.",

        "raw_content": "MORGANTOWN, WEST VIRGINIA \u2014 The West Virginia University College of Law is hosting a conference to discuss the legal medical and industrial use of cannabis in the state.\nThe Strategic Cannabis Conference will be held on Thursday, March 17, from 1:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. in the College of Law Event Hall, followed by a reception. Admission is free and the public is invited to attend.\nThe conference is meant to be a forum for doctors, lawyers, government officials, business entrepreneurs, patients, and advocates who are interested in a \u201cgold standard\u201d cannabis policy for West Virginia.\nCannabis is a plant that has long been used for hemp products, including rope and textiles, medicinal purposes, and as a recreational drug. It is legal in 23 states and the District of Columbia.\nBanned in the U.S. since 1957, hemp production was reauthorized for research purposes by the 2014 federal Farm Bill. Currently, West Virginia is one of 27 states that have removed barriers for the production of industrial hemp.\n\u201cExploring research and development avenues for both industrial and medical cannabis is the first step in creating a sustainable industry for the future economic prosperity of West Virginia,\u201d said conference organizer Morgan Leach, a third-year law student at WVU.\nJesse Richardson, a WVU associate professor of law, will open the conference with an overview of cannabis laws. Other speakers throughout the afternoon include Dr. Clark Milton of Wheeling Hospital, WVU psychology professor Steven Kinsey, and Lauren Berlekamp of Vote Hemp.\nTopics of discussion will include seed to sale solutions, an overview of medical and industrial cannabis, an analysis of various cannabis policies, and uses of hemp in the polymer industry.\nThe Strategic Cannabis Conference is sponsored by BioTrackTHC, iHemp, and the West Virginia Hemp Farmer\u2019s Cooperative.",

        "raw_content": "It used to be that a police officer was required to witness someone actually operate a vehicle before that person could be arrested for drunk driving. For example, someone asleep in a motionless car who was consuming alcohol did not necessarily provide the officer enough basis for a drunk driving arrest. However, in 1995, the Michigan Supreme Court greatly widened the definition of \u201coperating\u201d a motor vehicle and no longer required a police officer to see someone drive to make a valid drunk driving arrest. Now, \u201conce a person puts a motor vehicle in motion, or in a position posing a significant risk of collision, he or she continues to \u201coperate\u201d that vehicle (even if asleep) until the vehicle is returned to a position posing no such risk.\u201d People v. Wood, 450 Mich 399 (1995).\nIf you feel as though you have had one too many drinks to drive and need to sleep it off, make your resting place the back seat of your vehicle and ensure the engine is not running. You should also make sure that someone sober parks your vehicle in a way that does not impede traffic or give the police any reason to claim you still meet the statutory definition of \u201coperating\u201d a motor vehicle for a Michigan OWI arrest. Contact Michigan DUI Attorney Joseph Awad to discuss your Michigan drunk driving arrest today. The advice is free and confidential.",

        "raw_content": "Find a Northallerton Conveyancing Solictior on Your Lender\u2019s Panel\nReady to buy a new home in Northallerton? Failing to check that a lawyer is on your lender\u2019s list of approved solicitors can put your Northallerton transaction at risk of delay or failure.\nOnly LenderPanel.com provides a subset of authorised Northallerton conveyancers for over 130 lenders.\nRecently asked questions about conveyancing in Northallerton\nMy partner\u2019s brother is a property lawyer. I expect that I'll be able to get preferential rates for conveyancing, but if not, what kind of fees should I be paying for conveyancing in Northallerton?\nIt\u2019s a good idea to obtain multiple conveyancing quotes. Do use our search tool on this page. Whilst amounts do be different but the service one can expect differ between conveyancers as is the case with the vast majority of professional services.\nWhen will exchange of contracts occur in residential conveyancing in Northallerton and am I required to be at the lawyers branch?\nIf you are local to one of the conveyancing solicitors in Northallerton you are welcome to attend to sign contracts. That being said, the lender approved solicitors we recommend offer countrywide coverage for conveyancing and provide as equally comprehensive and professional a job for you when dealing with you by post or email. The signing of the contract is not the point of no return. Signing on the dotted line is necessary for the solicitor to officially exchange when the time is right, which is ordinarily shortly after signing. The exchange process is is usually a five minute process, although where a long \"chain\" is in the mix, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Northallerton)to be in the office available at the end of the phone to exchange contracts.\nThis question may be naive but I am unexperienced as a 1st time buyer of a ground floor flat in Northallerton. Do I pick up the keys to the premises on the completion date from my solicitor? If so, I will use a High Street conveyancing solicitor in Northallerton?\nOn the day of completion you do not need to attend the conveyancers office in Northallerton. Conveyancing lawyers for you will electronically transfer the purchase money to the owner\u2019s lawyers, and once they have received this, you should be able to collect the keys from the selling Agents and start moving into the property. This tends to happen between 1 and 3pm.\nWe previously selected solicitors locally in Northallerton on the Barclays solicitor approved list. They have just billed me a further sum for the legal aspects of the Barclays mortgage. Is this a supplemental conveyancing fee set by Barclays?\nAs unfair as it may appear, as long as it\u2019s in their Terms and Conditions or Quote then yes your conveyancer can levy a fee for this. This fee is not set by Barclays but by your Northallerton lawyer. Plenty of firms on the Barclays panel will levy an \u2018acting for lender\u2019 fee but plenty of firms incorporate it on their overall fee.\nAfter what seems like an age I have had an offer on a flat in Northallerton accepted, but there is a chain. The sellers have offered on a property, but it\u2019s not yet tied up, and have viewings of other apartments in the pipeline. I have chosen a bricks and mortar conveyancing solicitor in Northallerton. What should be my next step? When should I get the mortgage application with Santander going?\nIt is understandable to have apprehensions where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to incur expenses prematurely (mortgage application is approx \u00a31k, then valuation, Northallerton conveyancing search costs, etc). First, you should check that your lawyer is on the Santander conveyancing panel. Regarding the subsequent phase this very much depends on the uniqueness of your case, desire for this property and on the state of the market. In a buoyant market many purchasers would apply for the mortgage with Santander and arrange for the valuation and only if it comes back ok would they pay their conveyancing practitioner to move forward with the conveyancing in Northallerton.\nI need to instruct a conveyancing solicitor for freehold conveyancing in Northallerton. I've land on a site which looks to be the perfect offering If it is possible to get all the legals completed via email that would be preferable. Do I need to be concerned? What should out be looking out for?\nI am in need of some leasehold conveyancing in Northallerton. Before I set the wheels in motion I require certainty as to the number of years remaining on the lease.\nAssuming the lease is registered - and most are in Northallerton - then the leasehold title will always include the short particulars of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.\nNorthallerton Conveyancing for Leasehold Flats - Examples of Questions you should consider before Purchasing\nIt would be sensible to discover if the the lease includes any onerous restrictions in the lease. For instance some leases prohibit pets being allowed in certain buildings in Northallerton. If you like the propertyin Northallerton yet your dog can\u2019t move with you then you will be faced difficult choice. How many years remain on the lease?\nRecent conveyancing transactions in Northallerton\nCrosby road , Northallerton, North yorkshire DL6 1AA was sold on 18/12/2018 for \u00a3151,000.

This is the full version and is somewhat bigger, Due to it being a 4500x240 level. Will be bigger in the future...\nVer. 1.1 update\n:Nerfed amount of enemies except 2nd, slightly harder path (The ship, pipe is the easy path)\n:Added more scenery at the end, new mechanized scenery type!\nContributors: Sirwallnut (Talking about the negatives/Cons for letting me know what to improve, he was the first one!)\nBlaydeChan | 99/100\nDesign: 100/100\nEnemy placement: 99/100 small cannon spam in the level\nCongratulations! You, my friend, are the first user to receive my new and improved rating system!\nI'm starting to get the feeling that nobody cares, so let's begin:\n* LEVEL DESIGN (Attractiveness):\n(Pros):\n- I was a big fan of the checkered pipe and I admire it for it's appealing and unique design.\n- The smaller pipes with the lava coming out were a nice touch, and I enjoyed them for the most part.\n- Red coins (because red=death) were a nice addition.\n(Cons):\n- The background was boring and bland with no variation.\n- Minor tile cutoffs. Be sure to go back and 'polish' to rid your creation of these unsightly blemishes.\n- One case of sprite cutoff (Lakitu).\n- Certain tiles, such as the ground or the silver pipes, could have been slightly varied to prevent tedious repetition design-wise.\n- Mild issues with enemy spam regarding Chucks and cannons. Remember, you don't have to have a ton of enemies to make the level difficult!\n* LEVEL FUNCTION (Functionality):\n- The platforming and dexterity challenges were all possible to complete and problems with functionality were minimal.\n- There is no point in having mushroom/fire flower powerups in a stamina level. They have no effect.\n- The first encountered Lakitu has no effect on the player as it's Spinys are instantly destroyed by the surrounding tiles.\n* RELEVANCE (Music, Background, etc.):\n- Music fits the genre very well.\n- Tiles fit the genre well.\n- Sprites fit the genre mostly well.\n- Background doesn't really fit the genre. Try to be more relevant next time.\n(TIP: Use the CBG feature on this site to find some awesome backgrounds!\n* FUN (Unique aspects):\n- The use of an A2 auto scroll was a nice edition, and the preceding difficulty curve was smooth for the most part.\n- The platforming element provided mediocre enjoyment.\n- The level's challenges and the level itself leaves a bit to be desired in terms of originality regarding fun and enjoyment.\n* ROUNDUP:\n- LEVEL DESIGN: 5/10\n- LEVEL FUNCTION: 7/10\n- RELEVANCE: 7/10\n- FUN: 6/10\n- GRAND TOTAL: 25/40\n(Rounded up): 63%\n- SUGGESTED DIFFICULTY: Medium (Bordering on Easy).\nGood work on your first level, and I hope you enjoy your time here on Level Palace!\nButterDude | 80/100\nI see some improvement from the demo, the enemy spam wasn't that bad, actually i think it was good since at first, the level was boring nothing interesting. And when crap ton of enemies came around it made me jump and gave some thrill, non the less the level was kinda short.\nAnd the level needed some more scenery\nEnemy placement wasn't that great tbh.\nSo i give this level 80/100 and EASY Difficulty. (Plus is technically is your first level)\nCan't wait to see your next creation.\nYaaay enemy spam tbh its a good concept\n-30 ENEMY SPAM-\nk nice to see a BAD FUTURE. lol make a good future.\nk so enemy spam crashed my computer so -30\nand cut-offs near end and barely scenery -15\ngood concept tho\nGritzy Hills 1: The Faded hillsBoom Boom's Enraged boss fight...A Blizzard Bedlam ChristmasMushroom Kingdom Bad Future (Prototype)",

(61 x 44.5 cm)\nSee all works by John Cecil Stephenson oil Abstract Art\nProvenance: The Artist's Estate\nA skilled musician himself throughout his life Stephenson' sought to find visual equivalents for musical forms.\nCommenting on the 1960 Drian Gallery Exhibition, which was comprised of 22 works by Stephenson from the late 1950s, Herbert Read spoke of the \u2018freshness and vitality\u2019 of these later works noting that \u2018the vicissitudes of the art world are such that it is possible for an artist of great talent to work for a lifetime in obscurity, and only towards the end of his career find the recognition that is due to him\u2019.\nStephenson made his first abstract paintings around 1932. In 1934 he exhibited with the 7 & 5 Society, along with Ben and Winifred Nicholson, Ivon Hitchens, Henry Moore, Barbara Hepworth and John Piper. Though not today as well known as many of his contemporaries he was one of the key figures in the development of abstract art in Britain. Indeed Herbert Reed noted that Stephenson 'was one of the earliest artists in this country to develop a completely abstract style' and credited him with being the father figure of the 'gentle nest of artists' (Ben and Winifred Nicholson, Barbara Hepworth and Henry Moore) who occupied the Mall Studio's in Hampstead. At the beginning of WW2 Calder and Mondrian counted amongst his friends and were frequent visitors to The Mall Studios.\nPiet Mondrian photographed in a Hampstead garden by John Cecil Stephenson 1939\nEstate of John Cecil Stephenson/Tate Archive",

        "raw_content": "Bad credit? You can still borrow cash \u2013 but should you?\nBad credit secured loans can help you get money when mainstream lenders won't help you, but you're taking a big risk. The loan is usually secured on your property, and if you can't meet the repayments you could lose your home. Payment protection insurance is a must.\nBad credit secured loans are widely available, and they're designed to help people borrow money when mainstream lenders won't give them the time of day. However, interest rates will be on the high side \u2013 you're a riskier bet than Mr or Mrs Average \u2013 and the loan is secured on your property, which means if you don't make the repayments you could end up in serious trouble.\nBefore considering bad credit secured loans, you need to be honest with yourself. Is your bad credit rating the result of problems you've now overcome, or are you a financial disaster area? If it's the latter, then you're taking a huge risk by borrowing more money. Don't forget that if you don't make the payments, you could lose your house.\nIf you're drowning in debt, bad credit secured loans may not be the best way to fix your finances. It's a very good idea to have a chat with your local Citizen's Advice Bureau, where you'll be able to speak to debt experts who can help you find a way out of the red and into the black.",

        "raw_content": "Consumer sentiment muted as festival season arrives in India\n\u2022 80% consumers plan to spend on basics in the coming festival season\n\u2022 55 % consumers do not plan to make any major purchases in next 12 months\n\u2022 41 % consumers expect earnings to stay the same or decline in the coming months\n21 September 2017, New Delhi: The Diwali festival is generally preceded by festive buying with retailers and manufacturers stocking up as consumers spending is high during this period. This year the consumer sentiment is muted and there is unlikely to be a major surge in festival buying this year.\nThis comes out from a survey done by LocalCircles, India\u2019s largest engagement platform. Around 52 % of the 7659 citizens polled say that the they will be buying the festival basics and their spending maybe limited to Rs 10,000 during the festive season. But surprisingly 28% of the consumers say that they will not be spending anything. This is a substantial portion of the middle class which is not spending during the festival season. Another 19% say they will be making a reasonable spending of Rs 10,000 to Rs 50,000. These 19% of the middle class is what the retailers and manufacturers are expecting will give a boost to the buying during the festive season.\nThe festive season is also an occasion to make large purchases as it is considered an auspicious period. But due to the muted sentiment almost 55% of the consumer polled said not only ware they not considering any major purchase now. But even for the next 12 months they do not contemplate buying high value items of more than Rs 50,000. Around 18% said they will buy a two-wheeler, consumer durable or other high value item over the next 12 months.\nThe reason for the mute sentiment among a section of the population could be that people do not expect a substantial rise in their salaries in the coming months. Around 31 % citizens expect a salary hike of more than 15% this year. While 28% expect it to be between 0-15% but 41% do not expect any salary hike in the coming 12 months. The sentiment towards higher spending may have been affected by people who do not see any salary hike. Typically, the average salary hike across industries is 8% to 9%.",

        "raw_content": "Courts reach varying decisions on ERISA cases\nThere have been some recent appellate court decisions involving the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 and in what instances ERISA, a federal law, can supersede or pre-empt state laws when employees make claims against their employers. According to the U.S. Department of Labor, ERISA \u201csets minimum standards for most voluntarily established pension and health plans in private industry.\u201d The ERISA Industry Committee looked at four of these decisions.\nThe First Circuit Court of Appeals found in favor of a construction company that sued a city in Illinois for requiring companies that bid on city projects to have an ERISA-protected apprentice program. The court determined that the requirement was too specific and that in this case, ERISA superseded the city ordinance.\nThe Second Circuit ruled that ERISA pre-empted a New York law prohibiting medical benefits from being reimbursed from a plaintiff\u2019s tort settlement if the insurance plans were self-funded. The court ruled that ERISA did not pre-empt state law if the plans were fully insured.\nIn two cases, however, judges ruled that ERISA did not pre-empt state law. In a case before the Third Circuit, workers claimed they were guaranteed certain benefits under New Jersey law. The employer claimed that they did not have to pay the benefits because of ERISA. The court, however, ruled that when Congress passed ERISA, it was never meant to override wage-related state laws. Meanwhile, in a case before the Sixth Circuit, the court found that a Michigan law that levies a tax on claims paid by self-insured health plans to health care services by third-party administrators and carriers was not superseded by ERISA.\nThese four cases show that ERISA can be a complicated law, particularly when it bumps up against state and local laws. When this happens, which law takes precedence is not always a clear-cut matter. According to the ERIC analysis, courts continue to struggle with determining whether a state or local law \u201crelates to\u201d a benefits plan.\nWhen employees believe they are being denied benefits guaranteed by ERISA or that a company is acting in a manner that is prohibited by ERISA, they should seek legal guidance to determine whether the company is acting in a lawful manner. In some cases, the specific matter at hand may not have been previously considered in the judicial system. By bringing a case, plaintiffs may be able to provide clarification that will benefit others.\nSource: BenefitsPro.com, \u201cCourts at odds on when state laws pre-empt ERISA\u201d Nick Thornton, Aug. 13, 2014\nDisability insurance options in California",

It follows on from the murder of Morgan Harrington, a 20-year-old student from Virginia Tec, as she left their concert in 2010. At the time, the band offered a $50,000 reward for any information leading to an arrest, however new evidence linking the man to a sexual assault in Fairfax City prompted the band to reiterate the need for information.\nMorgan\u2019s mother, Gill Harrington called the suspect a \u2018predator at the top of his game\u2019 and in the video, lead singer James Hetfield reminds viewers that \u2019any information \u2013 no matter how small you might think it is \u2013 could be that crucial piece investigators need to help solve the case\".\nThe video can be seen on YouTube, Gill Harrington\u2019s website, www.findmorgan.com and the FBI\u2019s case site as part of a media campaign blitz involving social media, podcasts and an online photo gallery.

The report takes a position on such issues as granting operating licences, frequency band use and criteria for programme content. It proposes that an adequate transfer period should be granted for the switch of the terrestrial television network to full use of high-definition technology.\nMinister of Housing and Communications, Ms Krista Kiuru, is satisfied with the finished report.\n- When preparing the report, the future operating requirements of electronic media actors as well as consumer needs were taken into consideration in a balanced way.\nThe report proposes that it will be possible to receive all free television channels using the current standard television sets until 2026 in two multiplexes. The switch to high-definition technology of one of these multiplexes will be reviewed by the government no later than in 2020. To ensure that the switch to high-definition technology can take place efficiently and in a controlled manner, the Ministry of Transport and Communications will appoint a wide-based working group to prepare a detailed transfer plan and schedule by summer 2013. The working group will also assess the correct time for switching to high-definition broadcasting on a larger scale by 2016.\nPress release 26.9.2012: Government policy on the future of electronic media set out in a report",

My town's data included our local basketball hall of fame, some radio stations and the surrounding high schools, along with nearby cities and historical landmarks; presented to the right person, this information could prove vital to getting a quality experience out of an area.\nBut this feature isn't only for newcomers; in fact, it's much faster to glance at the map in order to look up a trivial fact than to access the search bar. By looking for the location, the use for typing keywords and proper names isn't necessary. If you need to search, swiping down on the screen in any of the four tabs will display a search box.\nWikipedia is used by a lot of people. With Curiosity's Popular tab, you can take a look at what people are searching and reading. Think of it as Twitter's trending topics but for relevant Wikipedia articles.\nWhat's great about Popular is that it's hard to predict what's going to be in the rotation. For example, the second trending topic at the time of writing was \"Penny debate in the United States,\" one spot ahead of the expected \"Star Wars: The Force Awakens.\" When changing the time from \"today\" to \"this week,\" a new list of topical articles was presented. There's no context, encouraging the user to explore why millions of people may be reading an article on \"Sonderweg.\" It's a fun discovery experience that's unique to Curiosity and one that I can see Wikipedia's own app emulating in future updates.\nAn Exploration of Curated Articles\nIf the previous two tabs haven't caught your eye, the Explore section provides a more general Wikipedia experience. While Explore still pulls location information and shows attractions and famous people born nearby, it also displays curated collections of articles that surround a certain topic, such as New Year's or Famous Inventors.\nOf course, this can be hit-or-miss depending on the topic. Although you might want to read up on Nikola Tesla's life and inventions, you may not be so inclined to learn about Vienna's New Year's Concert. These lists are destined to change based on the time of year, so there will surely be something for everyone. However, I'd like to see more customization of what collections can be read, a l\u00e1 Feedly.\nBookmarks, History, and Settings\nIt's important to mention that Curiosity collects bookmarked articles and history and stores them in the You tab. This area is essentially a bucket where all viewed and marked articles go; there's no bookmark search or tagging. That's not a deal breaker, but it'd be nice to have some way to find places you've bookmarked in case you get out of a location and can't remember a name.\nWhen you swipe down and display the search bar, you'll have the option to head into settings. Here, you'll have the ability to change the appearance of Curiosity, including font and font size. The app also provides a support menu and other small options.\n3D Touch and Searching\nCuriosity also supports 3D Touch for previewing and bookmarking. When you see an article that may interest you, you can peek into the article and swipe up to add a bookmark. Pressing harder will allow you to pop into the article and see it in its entirety.\nWhile on the Home screen, it is also possible to use the \"Search Wikipedia\" quick action by pressing on the icon. Whether you search following this method or from the in-app search bar, you'll be given the articles that best fit your query. It's simple \u2013 and that is to the benefit of Curiosity.\nFeeding Your Curiosity\nAdmittedly, I'm not a frequent peruser of Wikipedia \u2013 but I can see Curiosity changing that. It's a powerful tool for using location to find articles. Additionally, it's a beautiful way to simply search and read on interesting topics. It has its flaws, too; it lacks any bookmark or history search and can display articles in its Explore tab that you may find irrelevant or uninteresting. Curiosity is also for iPhone only, which is frustrating to users who do most of their researching or traveling with an iPad. With iPads becoming the main computing device for many, it would benefit Tamper to look into releasing an iPad version of Curiosity.\nIf you're looking for a way to take in information from Wikipedia or stay up-to-date on trending searches, Curiosity is $1.99 in the App Store.",

        "raw_content": "Reverse Osmosis System Services in Silver Spring, MD & Montgomery County\nYou may have seen the term \u201creverse osmosis system\u201d on bottles of drinking water in your local grocery store. It refers to a specific process of purifying the water, leaving it free of contaminants and justifying the high price they charge for what would otherwise be ordinary drinking water. But did you know that you could have a reverse osmosis system installed in your own home here in Montgomery County?\nThe process of reserve osmosis is employed on a large scale for bottled water companies, but a much smaller system can be installed in your plumbing by the experts at Mallick Plumbing & Heating. With a whole house reverse osmosis system, your water will taste as fresh and clean as the water from the store, all without costing you a dime or forcing you to get rid of those plastic bottles. Call us today to discuss your options!\nReverse osmosis sounds complex, and certainly the equipment used to facilitate it needs to be installed and repaired by trained professionals, but the concepts behind it are fairly simple. Pressure from your household water supply pushes the water through a membrane that filters out carbon, calcium, dirt, bacteria and other contaminants.\nCheck valves and shut\u2013off valves are available in some models to protect you in the event of a huge disaster, and the rest of the time, your reverse osmosis system leaves you with clean, fresh\u2013tasting water as healthy as the kind bought in the store. Mallick Plumbing & Heating can install, repair, maintain and replace such a system for you, so contact us today!\nShould You Install a Reverse Osmosis System?\nThe obvious benefits are cleaner water and considerable savings if you\u2019re currently using Montgomery County\u2019s array of grocery stores to purchase clean water. But in the long run, it can do so much more for you. By removing impurities in the water, it helps keep your family healthy: of particular concern if you have a newborn in the household or are taking care of elderly family members.\nReverse osmosis systems also provide cleaner, healthier water for cleaning and bathing, and because they don\u2019t have many moving parts, the chances of them suffering a serious breakdown are low. At Mallick Plumbing & Heating, our trained team can discuss the specifics with you, then set about installing your new system as quickly as possible. Contact us today to schedule a service appointment with our expert plumbers.\nWe\u2019re There for All System Services\nReverse osmosis systems can last a long time, provided they\u2019re installed by skilled professionals, and a little care and maintenance is applied to them. Periodic cleaning is necessary to keep the filters pure, but that can be conducted by the pros at Mallick Plumbing & Heating as part of a larger maintenance packages.\nWe\u2019ll also be there in the very unlikely event of a full breakdown, and we provide replacement services for reverse osmosis systems as well as installation of new systems in homes that don\u2019t have them. Stop throwing money away on bottled water. Contact us today and take the first steps towards a happier, healthier home!",

        "raw_content": "Earthquake in Ecuador: More than seven million people affected\nPhoto: picture alliance/AA (Josep Vecino)\nEven a week on from the 7.8 magnitude earthquake that struck Ecuador on Saturday, April 16, many roads remain impassable, making the task of searching for the missing, and providing aid for survivors increasingly difficult. The three coastal cities of Manta, Portoviejo and Pedernales were almost completely destroyed by the quake, following which Malteser International immediately established contact with the local National Association of the Order of Malta, who have been distributing clothes, food, medication and mattresses to the survivors since the day after the disaster.\nAt present, there are around 10,000 local military personnel and 4,000 police officers undertaking search-and-rescue activities, while other countries in the region, including Mexico, Colombia, and Venezuela, have already dispatched their own aid teams to Ecuador. Because of the strength of the local response, Malteser International will not be dispatching its own team at present. \u201cThe local and regional forces are best equipped and qualified to provide rescue and first aid to the people in Ecuador,\u201d said Ingo Radtke, Secretary General of Malteser International. \u201cHowever, we will remain in close contact with the Order of Malta in Ecuador, and we will observe further developments. If our help is needed in the second phase of the relief effort, or in the rebuilding process, we are ready to provide immediate aid via the Malteser International Americas Headquarters, and our local partners on the ground, to help the people in Ecuador to get back on their feet.\u201d\nInfrastructure has collapsed in many areas affected by the quake, leaving locals without power and drinking water. Providing them with water, and restoring basic sanitation are among the top priorities. Rebuilding is expected to take some time. Even now, one of the primary concerns is how people can be better protected from future quakes and volcanic activity.\nThe number of those that lost their lives in the earthquake has risen to almost 600, while 155 people remain missing. More than 7,000 people have been wounded, and almost 25,000 are now living under emergency shelters. In total, over seven million people are thought to have been affected by the disaster.\nMalteser International is calling urgently for donations to help the affected people\nReference: Ecuador Earthquake Recovery",

        "title": "Endless Summer in Big Bend National Park - Matt and Karen",
        "raw_content": "Not a super-easy park to get to, it\u2019s a five and a half-hour drive from El Paso and six and a half-hour drive from San Antonio, but certainly worth the trip. When looking at a map of Texas, you\u2019ll see a pointed bump-out on the southern border where the Rio Grande makes a big bend. The land formed by the bend in the river makes up the park. One of the cool things about the park is its varied landscape: mountains in the middle surrounded by scrubby desert, with a wild river forming the southern boundary.\nThe Chisos Mountains\nHiking through the trees on the Lost Mine Trail in the Chisos Mountains, you\u2019d never know that only a few miles away was a barren desert landscape. We stayed at the Chisos Mountain Lodge and drove a short distance to get to the trailhead; the entire hike we were on the lookout for one of the mountain lions that live in the area. Not sure if we were hoping to see one or not see one\u2014maybe both\u2014but we didn\u2019t. A ranger told us that you\u2019d only see a mountain lion in the wild if the mountain lion wants you to see him. \u201cThey probably saw you, though,\u201d he added.\nWithin walking distance of the lodge was the Window Trail. Following a trickle of a stream for about two and a half miles, the trail winds through stunted oak trees and ends abruptly in a canyon where the rock walls frame the view into the distance, and the trail disappears over the edge of the canyon forming a pouroff (dry waterfall). Looking west through the Window, you see the Chihuahuan Desert stretching endlessly beneath the mountains. I don\u2019t remember much of the view as I was holding onto the back of Karen\u2019s pants; she was creeping way too close to the edge to take pictures, and I was trying to keep her from falling. It\u2019s a long way to the bottom of the pouroff.\nDown on the desert floor, the park roads lead to a couple of river access points. In the east is Rio Grande Village, which has a visitor center, campground, and store. A few miles further east of the village is a parking area with several trailheads. That\u2019s where we picked up the Boquillas Canyon Trail and hiked about a mile along the Rio Grande. A Mexican national stood on the Mexican side of the river singing to us. He was very entertaining us in hopes that we\u2019d leave a tip in the coffee can he\u2019d placed on the U.S. side of the river. That was several years ago when it was illegal for anyone to cross the Rio Grande at that location.\nIn the west, on the other side of the bend, is Santa Elena Canyon. From the end of the park road, it\u2019s a short walk to the river. The flat, sandy river bank is the perfect place to put-in rafts and canoes. Starting there and floating east is the most popular place for one-day and multiple-day river trips in the park because of the scenery. The walls of the canyons that hug the river are as much as 1,500 high in places along that stretch.\nThe nearest town, outside of the park, is Terlingua, population 58 (according to the 2010 census). Often described as a ghost town, it seemed to be plenty alive when we went there for dinner one night. The mobile-home-turned-pizza restaurant where we ate served great pizza. What else do you need when visiting a national park besides the great outdoors and a pizza? Once a year the folks in Terlingua would answer that question with one word: chili.\nUsually held over the first weekend in November, the mother of all chili cookoffs draws a crowd to Terlingua. This year (2018) will be the 53rd annual Chili Appreciation Society International (CASI) chili cook-off. CASI sanctions over 500 cooking events each year and considers the Terlingua event their ultimate competition. Chili is not the only food being judged this year: traditional salsa, non-traditional salsa, hot wings, and beans are also separate competitive categories. This event is yet another item on our must-see-before-you-die list. Or as Karen would say, \u201cIt\u2019s in my wish bucket.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Destinations / November 29, 2018 by Matt / 3 Comments\nBison sharing the road with a snow coach in Yellowstone National Park\nJanuary \u2013 Yellowstone National Park\nLooking for an escape from January\u2019s frigid temperatures? We have the perfect suggestion: Yellowstone National Park, where the average daily high temperature is 24 degrees, Fahrenheit. Maybe that\u2019s not the destination you expected but give us a minute to explain. Yellowstone, our country\u2019s first national park and one of the largest, most wildlife-diverse areas in the lower forty-eight states, is unlike anywhere in the world. The combination of the world\u2019s highest concentration of thermal features (geysers, fumaroles, hot springs, and mud pots), several feet of snow, and a herd of bison roaming through this winter wonderland, makes Yellowstone a unique and fascinating place to visit in January.\nMost of the roads into the park are closed to car traffic in the winter, with a couple of exceptions. Highway 89 from Gardiner, Montana to Mammoth Hot Springs inside the park is open, as is the Grand Loop Road running east from Mammoth to Tower Junction. From there, continuing east on Highway 212 through the Lamar Valley, the road is open all the way to Cooke City just outside the northeast entrance to the park. At Cooke City you reach a dead end; the state doesn\u2019t plow the road east of town in the winter. Visitors traveling to the other areas of the park, including guests staying at the Old Faithful Snow Lodge, get around via snowmobile or snow coach.\nSnowmobile concessionaires out of Gardiner, Jackson Hole, and West Yellowstone offer guided tours in the park. The Old Faithful area is a popular destination for snowmobile tours, as is the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone. Other winter activities include stargazing, wildlife viewing, snowshoeing, and cross-country skiing.\nView from the summit at Haleakala National Park\nFebruary \u2013 Haleakala National Park\nWe know what you\u2019re thinking, Maui in February? That\u2019s more like it. Haleakala National Park is home to the dormant Haleakala Volcano, which last erupted about 500 years ago. At 52 square miles, this park has plenty of room for you to roam.\nSince your flip-flops and swimsuit won\u2019t take up much room in your luggage, you\u2019ll be able to pack a sweatshirt for a day-trip to the summit. I ignored this advice when we visited there several years ago and had to stop at the Walmart in town to buy a hoody before our drive to the top of the island. The only one I could find in my size had a large University of Hawaii logo on the chest. Go Rainbow Warriors! While it may be balmy on the beach, the summit sits at about 10,000 feet elevation, and it\u2019s usually windy up there.\nBrave the nip in the air for a couple of hours and take a hike into the cinder desert. From the parking lot, trails lead down the east side of the mountain past several dormant cinder cones. As you hike the steady decline, you\u2019ll have breath-taking views of the Pacific Ocean in the distance. If you\u2019re tempted to keep marching toward the blue water, you might want to check with a ranger at the Visitor Center about backpacking permits and suggestions; from the top of Haleakala, you can hike all the way to the ocean, although a trip of that length typically takes several days to complete. Keep in mind while you\u2019re hiking blissfully that however far you hike down in elevation, you\u2019ll have to climb back out. This was another detail that slipped our minds while hiking the Sliding Sands Trail; the 3-mile uphill trudge back to our rental car in gale force winds just about killed us. The bonus, however, was we didn\u2019t feel bad about ordering a large, deep dish pizza that night for dinner at the Lahaina Pizza Company.\nA Joshua Tree in Joshua Tree National Park\nMarch \u2013 Joshua Tree National Park\nJoshua Tree National Park is 790,000 acres of protected desert ecosystems a couple of hours east of Los Angeles; it\u2019s home to countless Joshua Trees\u2014the ones that look like they came straight out of a Dr. Seuss book. It\u2019s a good idea to visit this park early in the year before the temperatures get too hot. We camped there in February, and while the days were mild, it was still chilly at night; March may be the perfect month for this park. And it\u2019s a great add-on destination if you\u2019re already planning a trip to the area; Palm Springs is about an hour away by car, and Las Vegas is a three-hour drive in the other direction. That said, it seems everyone in Southern California knows that March is a great time to visit; try going mid-week when the crowds are a bit less.\nIf you\u2019re planning to hike in the park\u2014which we suggest you do\u2014be sure to bring layers to wear. You might find yourself putting shorts and sunscreen as you get ready to explore the park or possibly digging through your backpack to find your long pants and windbreaker (especially if you plan on attempting Ryan Peak\u2014it\u2019s usually windy on the trail). Either way, take plenty of water with you.\nOur preferred way to see the park is to enter from the north by going through the town of Twentynine Palms. You can reach Ryan Peak Trail and Lost Mine Trail from the north entrance; both are excellent hikes. On our most recent trip to Joshua Tree, we discovered another trail to add to our favorites list: The Panorama Loop Trail, home to some of the park\u2019s largest Joshua Trees. It\u2019s in the northwest section of the park and begins from the parking lot of the Black Rock Canyon Visitor Center. The trail is a 6.5-mile loop with an elevation gain of about 1,300 feet that leads to panoramic views of the park and surrounding areas.\nThe Needles in Canyonlands National Park\nApril \u2013 Canyonlands National Park\nMoab, Utah is becoming more popular every year, and for a good reason; it\u2019s the gateway to some incredible public lands including Arches National Park, Dead Horse Point State Park, and Canyonlands National Park. April is a great time to visit Canyonlands; the weather is usually sunny and 70\u2019s this time of year. And while it\u2019s typical to see cars lined up waiting to get into Arches, Canyonlands gets less than half the number of visitors.\nThe Green and Colorado Rivers divide Canyonlands into three, physically separated districts: The Island in the Sky in the north, The Maze in the southwest, and The Needles in the southeast. Each region has unique features and appeal.\nThe Island in the Sky is the most accessible district from Moab; it\u2019s about a 40-minute drive from town to the visitor center. This wedge-shaped plateau has several hiking trails that lead to overlooks of the rivers that divide the park. To the west, trails around Upheaval Dome provide hikers with spectacular views of this unusual geological formation. The White Rim Trail is a 100+-mile, four-wheel drive only road that snakes its way below the plateau and above the rivers. Driving the trail requires applying for a permit, mostly so a ranger can assess the driver\u2019s off-road abilities before letting them head out into the wilderness.\nThe Maze is the least-accessible district. Getting to areas in this part of the park requires long drives on rough roads in high clearance, four-wheel drive vehicles. Most of the sites worth seeing in this district take many hours to reach and familiarity of the region to keep from getting lost, which is why most visitors exploring this area do so on multi-day, guided camping trips.\nThe Needles district is a 75-mile drive south and west from Moab. When we visit this area, we often stay in the small town of Monticello on Highway 191, rather than drive back and forth to Moab. The Needles has several bucket list-worthy hikes. The Confluence Trail is an out-and-back 11+-mile trail that ends at an overlook where the Green and Colorado Rivers join. The Chesler Park and Joint Trail Loop takes you through the incredible stone spire needles and a cool slot canyon (the Joint). And the Druid Arch Trail, which winds 10+ miles through the needles, turns around at a stunning natural arch.\nView of the Grand Canyon from the South Rim\nMay \u2013 Grand Canyon National Park\nAt over a mile deep and nearly 18 miles wide in places, the Grand Canyon is considered one of the seven natural wonders of the world. Why visit in May? The daytime temperatures are not as hot as mid-summer, the monsoons are still a month or so away, and most schools haven\u2019t let out yet for summer vacation. If you want to go the edge of the canyon and peer into its greatness, the South Rim has the most-established roads and facilities. A scenic drive, Desert View Drive, runs east/west along the canyon\u2019s south rim for 25 miles, with six canyon viewpoints where you can park and look into the canyon\u2019s deep abyss.\nOnce you find a place to park in one of the many lots surrounding Grand Canyon Village, you can walk the paved path that follows the edge of the canyon, stopping to view the magnificent scenery along the way. If the hordes of people with selfie sticks are too much for you, keep walking west on the rim trail and eventually the crowd thins considerably. You can continue west along this Canyon Rim trail for 8 miles (all the way to Hermit\u2019s Rest) with very few other hikers keeping you company. Free shuttle buses run throughout the day to Hermit\u2019s Rest, stopping at eight overlooks, so you could jump on and off the shuttle and hike as much or as little as you want.\nThe North Rim provides even greater solitude. It has a lodge and campground, and only ten percent of the park\u2019s visitors. The lodge sits at 8,000 feet elevation\u2014over a thousand feet higher than the South Rim. Contemplating a hike from one rim of the canyon to the other? Keep in mind that due to winter weather, the road to the North Rim is typically only open from mid-May to late November, with the lodge and all services closing mid-October.\nLong House in Mesa Verde National Park\nJune \u2013 Mesa Verde National Park\nSummer officially kicks off in June, and it\u2019s the perfect time to explore Mesa Verde National Park, an area of southwestern Colorado with thousands of Puebloan Indian archeological sites, hundreds of which are cliff-dwellings. The park has some of the best-preserved Puebloan ruins in America. Because it sits at an altitude ranging from 7,000 to 8,500 feet, summer is when the most sites are open and the park is in full swing. In addition to their regular ranger-led cliff dwelling tours, every summer they offer additional tours to some of their more remote sites. The group sizes for these tours are usually small, and the tickets sell out quickly. Seasonal rangers often lead these special tours; many are school teachers on summer break. Visiting Mesa Verde in June, you\u2019ll have a chance at some unique tours, the weather is usually pleasant, and the crowds are not yet at their peak.\nGetting to the park requires a drive no matter which direction you\u2019re coming from: it\u2019s 400 miles from Denver, 360 miles from Salt Lake City, and 250 miles from Santa Fe. If you\u2019re making the trek to Mesa Verde, you might as well visit some of the other fantastic public lands in the area. Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park is 150 miles north of Mesa Verde, and Hovenweep National Monument is 55 miles to the west in Utah.\nBumpass Hell in Lassen Volcanic National Park\nJuly \u2013 Lassen Volcanic National Park\nIt seems like few people outside of northern California have ever heard of Lassen Volcanic National Park, fifty miles west of Redding. In the shadow of Yosemite\u2014a few hours to the south\u2014this hidden gem draws a fraction of the visitors. Its lack of notoriety could also be due to its short visitation season. At 6,700 elevation, the park\u2019s southern visitor center gets an annual average snowfall of over 400 inches. At higher elevations in the park, the average snowfall can exceed 700 inches. With that much snow, the park is white until at least late spring. And winter comes early. Several years ago, we visited Lassen in early September and found ourselves driving through a couple of inches of freshly fallen snow. July is the time to visit the park if you want to leave your snow gear and winter coat at home.\nThe focal point of the park is Lassen Peak, a semi-dormant volcano that had a major eruption in 1915. The peak reaches 10,457 feet above sea level and is an impressive sight, especially when imagining what it must have been like to see it blow. If you want a workout, you can hike to the peak: five miles round trip with an elevation gain of 2,000 feet.\nLassen is now quiet, but there are other indications that the earth is still grumbling beneath the surface of the park. Not far from the peak is an area called Bumpass Hell, a cluster of active thermal features. The park built boardwalks through the area so visitors can get close to the steaming pools and fumaroles without being boiled alive. With the mountains in the background and the steam coming up from the ground, this beautiful park reminded us of a mini Yellowstone\u2014without the bison and the crowds.\nIceberg Lake in Glacier National Park\nAugust \u2013 Glacier National Park\nWinter storms start rolling through Glacier National Park in Montana around the last week of September. We\u2019ve experienced snow showers as early as Labor Day on our past visits to the park. And Going to the Sun Road, a spectacular 50-mile road that connects the west and east sides of the park doesn\u2019t usually open until late June or early July. Unless you\u2019re OK dealing with winter weather, give yourself a margin for error and try visiting Glacier in August. Accommodations will be more difficult to reserve for dates in August; it\u2019s a good idea to book well in advance.\nWhile you\u2019re there, make sure to visit the Many Glacier area in the northeast section of the park; you can stay in one of two lodges (Many Glacier Hotel or Swiftcurrent Motor Inn), or camp in the Many Glacier Campground if you\u2019re lucky enough to get a campsite. Two of our favorite hikes in that region are Grinnell Glacier and Iceberg Lake; both have stunning views along the trails, and you\u2019ll have a good chance of seeing wildlife. Every time we\u2019ve been to that area of the park in August, we\u2019ve seen moose, bighorn sheep, black bears, and grizzly bears. At the risk of sounding like your mother: always have bear spray with you when hiking in Glacier National Park.\nA Sequoia Tree in Sequoia National Park\nSeptember \u2013 Kings and Sequoia National Parks\nThese two parks sit side by side in California\u2019s Sierra Nevadas and are managed jointly by the National Park Service. Their claim to fame, the giant sequoia trees, are stunning any time of the year, but in September you have a better chance of seeing them without a crowd following you wherever you go. Both Sequoia\u2019s Giant Forest and Kings Canyon\u2019s Grant Grove are about 7,000 feet above sea level. At that elevation, there\u2019s always a chance of wintery weather in September, but it usually holds off until later in the year.\nThe Cedar Grove area of Kings Canyon looks like Yosemite Valley with its towering, granite walls rising above the canyon, yet it\u2019s not nearly as built up or crowded. This area of the park is lower in elevation\u2014about 4,000 feet above sea level\u2014therefore the temperatures are a little warmer than where the sequoias live. In September, many of the campgrounds in the canyon are only partially filled, and the place has a relaxed, laid-back vibe. Note that the road to Cedar Grove Village closes from mid-November to mid-April each year.\nBass Harbor Head Lighthouse in Acadia National Park\nOctober \u2013 Acadia National Park\nNew England has to be one of the best places in the U.S. to view the fall colors, and that includes Acadia National Park, situated on Mount Desert Island just off the coast of Maine. Add to that its stately carriage roads, rocky Atlantic coastline, and iconic lighthouse, and Acadia becomes the perfect autumn destination.\nThe peak season for color is usually the first few weeks of October, and that\u2019s when the \u201cleaf peepers\u201d show up in droves. We\u2019ve visited Acadia in October, but we had no trouble getting hotel reservations a few months in advance in the nearby town of Bar Harbor. And while busloads of tourists packed the park\u2019s Jordan Pond House Restaurant enjoying their world-famous popovers and tea, we found solitude hiking to the top of Cadillac Mountain, exploring the Bass Harbor Head Lighthouse, and walking sections of the 45 miles of car-free carriage roads.\nRio Grande flowing through Santa Elena Canyon in Big Bend National Park\nNovember \u2013 Big Bend National Park\nBig Bend National Park, on the southern border of Texas five hours from El Paso, offers visitors in November a final blast of summer. The park is a 1,200-square-mile expanse of Chihuahuan Desert, with a mountain range in the middle. Temperatures in the lower elevations of the park can still reach the nineties during the day in November, so plan accordingly and take plenty of water if you\u2019re hiking one of the trails through the desert or by the Rio Grande. If you want a break from the heat, drive into the Chisos Mountains, where the elevation at Emory Peak is 7,832 feet\u2014about 6,000 feet above the desert floor below. If you plan on hiking one of the many trails in the mountains, keep your eyes peeled for wildlife; you might get lucky and see one of the elusive mountain lions that live there.\nMaybe the best reason to visit the park in November is to attend the annual International Chili Championship in Terlingua, Texas just minutes outside the park to the west. Each year during the first weekend in November, participants compete in the granddaddy of all chili cookoffs. The four-day event is open to the public; in 2018, the entrance fee for spectators was $40 for the entire event.\nDecember \u2013 Everglades National Park\nBreaking icicles off your eyebrows and digging a snow cave into the side of a mountain to make a place to sleep is not for everyone. That\u2019s what makes Everglades National Park in Florida a great choice for a December destination. Everglades has two very distinct seasons: a dry season (Nov.-March) and a wet season (April-November). Not only is the dry season drier, it\u2019s less buggy, and the warm winters attract the largest variety of wading birds and their predators.\nThe park is massive at over 2,300 square miles and boasts a wide-variety of activities for visitors including wildlife viewing, hiking, kayaking, canoeing, camping, boating, bicycling, and ranger-led boat tours.\nOne of our favorite memories of the park is when we biked the 15-mile Shark Valley Bike Trail. It was a pleasant day in December, and both sides of the trail were thick with alligators of all sizes sunning themselves. Some were lying motionless with their mouths open. We weren\u2019t sure if that was just something alligators do while enjoying a peaceful afternoon, or when they\u2019re getting ready to snatch a park visitor by the leg as they pass by. We made it through without incident but we\u2019re still not sure.\nWhile you\u2019re in southern Florida, we highly recommend you visit one of the most unusual national parks in America: Dry Tortugas National Park. The park is a region of shallow water in the Gulf of Mexico about two hours by boat west of Key West, Florida. Several small keys dot the area within the park\u2019s boundaries. One of the largest, Garden Key, is the site of Fort Jefferson, a Civil War-era military base that takes up nearly the entire footprint of the small island. The main activity in the park is a ranger-led tour of the historic fort although swimming, snorkeling, diving, camping, boating and fishing are also popular activities.\nIn your November newsletter you listed a holiday gift ideas\u2026.I did read it but would like to go back and look at items you use or recommend while hiking. When I cliked on it, it said the page was no longer available. Is there a way I can? Thanks in advance.\nNedra, thanks for the message. This link should work, let me know if it doesn\u2019t. \ud83d\ude42\nhttps://smithmx3.wixsite.com/mandksite/blog/matt-and-karen-s-favorite-things-gift-guide\nPlanning a East to West coast train trip in late June.

They\u2019re trained to identify criminals, arrest them, and allow the criminal justice system to handle the administration of justice from there.\nBut what if an undercover cop entices you to commit unlawful activity you otherwise would not have engaged in?

The concept of entrapment centers on intent to commit a crime. According to state law, entrapment can be used as a valid defense to prosecution if:\nThe accused committed a crime;\nThe accused was induced by a law enforcement official to commit the crime; and\nThe law enforcement official used persuasion or some other tactic likely to cause the person to commit the crime.\nEntrapment can only be committed by a member of law enforcement. To prove entrapment, you must successfully argue that you never would have committed the crime in question under ordinary circumstances.\nThere are two common tests to prove entrapment: the subjective test and the objective test.\nThe subjective entrapment test focuses on the individual defendant\u2019s state of mind. The subjective test has been adopted by the federal government and most states. It is the more popular of the two tests for entrapment.\nTo meet the subjective test, it must be shown that a defendant was pressured to commit illegal activity against their will by law enforcement. That person\u2019s background and criminal history are then evaluated to .\nA well-established example of the subjective test can be found in the 1932 Supreme Court case Sorrells v. United States, 287 U.S. 435. A Prohibition-era undercover agent coerced a reputed rumrunner, Vaughno Crawford Sorrells, into finding him some liquor. Sorrells refused multiple times before finally complying to help what he believed to be a fellow war veteran.\nBecause of Sorrells\u2019s initial refusals, he was found to have been entrapped by the agent. In the opinion of the Court, Sorrells didn\u2019t display a predisposition for this criminal behavior; the agent had lured in an innocent man and convinced him to commit a crime. This was one of the first applications of the subjective test for entrapment.\nThe objective test for entrapment focuses on the behavior of law enforcement, not the predisposition of the individual. Unlike with the subjective test, the defendant\u2019s criminal record is irrelevant when applying this test.\nThe objective test also originates from the Sorrells v. United States case. Justice Roberts, while agreeing with the majority opinion, rationalized his agreement differently. Entrapment of citizens by law enforcement officials, Roberts felt, was unjust. Even if a person had a predisposition\nRoberts believed that society needed to be protected from this type of government overreach. He felt that convictions should be denied if they resulted from the actions of a government agent. This was also one of the first applications of the subjective test for entrapment.\nEntrapment | Criminal Law \u2013 The University of Minnesota Libraries publish textbooks and provide free online copies of certain texts.

        "raw_content": "Key clinical point: Aspirin use dampened the rise in early-onset strokes seen after preeclampsia.\nMajor finding: After preeclampsia and off aspirin, women younger than 60 had a 40% higher rate of stroke than women without preeclampsia.Study details: A review of data collected from 83,790 women enrolled in the California Teachers Study.\nDisclosures: Dr. Miller had no relevant financial disclosures.\nSource: Miller E et al. International Stroke Conference 2018, A174 (Stroke. 2018 Jan;49[Suppl 1]:A174).\nLOS ANGELES \u2013 Women with a history of preeclampsia have a significantly increased risk for an early-onset stroke, but that risk is blunted in women taking aspirin, an epidemiologic analysis of data from more than 83,000 women in the California Teachers Study showed.\nAmong the 4,072 women in the study with a history of preeclampsia, 3,003 were not on aspirin, and during follow-up they had a greater than 1% incidence of stroke \u2013 ischemic and hemorrhagic combined \u2013 before turning 60 years of age. Their incidence rate was 40% higher than in the roughly 60,000 women without a preeclampsia history who were not taking aspirin, a statistically significant difference after adjustment for demographics, smoking, obesity, diabetes, and hypertension, Eliza C. Miller, MD, said at the International Stroke Conference, sponsored by the American Heart Association.\nThe findings suggest that it\u2019s time to run an aspirin prevention trial in women at high risk for stroke, such as women with a history of preeclampsia, said Dr. Miller, a vascular neurologist at Columbia University in New York. Results from a randomized multicenter trial with more than 1,600 women reported in 2017 showed that treatment with aspirin could reduce the incidence of preeclampsia during pregnancy (N Engl J Med. 2017 Aug 17;377[7]:613-22), but no reported study has assessed the impact of aspirin prophylaxis for stroke prevention following preeclampsia. She also raised the possibility of modifying cardiovascular risk prediction models, such as the Framingham Risk Score, so they take into account a history of preeclampsia.\nHer analysis used data drawn from more than 133,000 women enrolled starting in 1995 in the California Teachers Study. She focused on 83,790 women who entered the study when they were younger than 60 years old, who had no history of stroke, and who provided data on their history of preeclampsia. The prevalence of a preeclampsia history was 4.9% overall, and 6.1% among women who had been pregnant at least once, an incidence rate similar to what has been found in other large populations of women, Dr. Miller said.\nDaily 150-mg aspirin dose slashes preterm preeclampsia risk\nThe average age of the women with preeclampsia was 44, and 46 for those without preeclampsia. The women with a history of preeclampsia also had a higher prevalence rate of obesity, hypertension, diabetes, and chronic kidney disease. Roughly a quarter of all women were regularly taking aspirin.\nAfter adjustment of the data for demographic and clinical differences, women with a history of preeclampsia had a 20% higher overall rate of a subsequent stroke before reaching age 60 years, but this difference was not significant in an analysis that included both women taking aspirin and those not on the drug. When the analysis focused only on the women not on aspirin, the increased stroke rate linked with a preeclampsia history rose to 40% higher than in women without a preeclampsia history, a statistically significant difference. In contrast, among the quarter of women on aspirin, the two subgroups \u2013 with a preeclampsia history and without \u2013 had similar rates of incident strokes.\nSOURCE: Miller E et al.

Wells, MD, PhD, a rheumatologist at Duke University in Durham, N.C., who is also director of the Rheumatology and Immunotherapy Center in Franklin, Wisc.\n\u201cThe challenge is whether Medicare will cover the pills the way they cover the infusions and the other things we do,\u201d according to Dr. Wells.\nBruce Jancin/Frontline Medical News\nDr. Alvin F. Wells (left) and Dr. Orrin M. Troum\nFinally, therapeutic progress in osteoarthritis: \u201cWe have more than 10 drugs for rheumatoid arthritis that can slow or stop the disease process, and yet we have more than 30 million people with osteoarthritis that we have no drugs for. But I think there are finally some things on the horizon that look promising,\u201d observed Orrin M. Troum, MD, of the University of Southern California in Los Angeles.\nA bevy of new drugs for psoriatic arthritis and psoriasis: \u201cI think the most important advance in the past year was the approval of a profusion of drugs for psoriatic arthritis and psoriasis. It\u2019s really opened up the landscape for us in terms of treatment options. The downside is it\u2019s going to take us a while to sort through which drugs fit where,\u201d noted Eric J. Ruderman, MD, professor of medicine and associate chief of clinical affairs in the division of rheumatology at Northwestern University in Chicago.\n\u201cThe drug I was most impressed with was tofacitinib [Xeljanz, an oral JAK inhibitor], not just by its effectiveness but by its potential to change the game, and particularly the data in tumor necrosis factor inhibitor inadequate responders. That was pretty solid data. It really opens the way to oral small molecules for joint diseases,\u201d he added.\nInterleukin-18 binding protein for monogenic inflammasome diseases: The biggest recent breakthrough in pediatric rheumatology was the Food and Drug Administration\u2019s April 2017 designation of Breakthrough Therapy status for the recombinant human IL-18 binding protein known as tadekinig alfa for monogenic IL-18-associated autoinflammatory conditions, as well as the biologic\u2019s Orphan Drug Designation for treatment of hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis, according to Anne M. Stevens, MD, PhD, professor of pediatrics at the University of Washington, Seattle, and chief of pediatric rheumatology at Seattle Children\u2019s Hospital.\nDr. Anne M. Stevens\nThese disorders, while uncommon, are a huge challenge for pediatric rheumatologists. They are sudden in onset, often recurrent, and have high morbidity and mortality. While many children with macrophage activation syndrome respond to anti-IL-1 therapy, a subset do not. Dr. Stevens credited a team of investigators at the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases and several university hospitals with proving that IL-18 is a key cytokine in some of these nonresponders. The investigators got the research ball rolling with their case report of a dramatic and swift response to tadekinig alfa in a child with life-threatening macrophage activation syndrome and extraordinarily high blood levels of IL-18 (J Allergy Clin Immunol. 2017 May;139[5]:1698-1701). As a result, a formal clinical trial is ongoing.\nNovel treatment concept emerges in severe SLE: The study that knocked the socks off of Martin J. Bergman, MD, in 2017 was the Dutch SymBiose study, presented at both the European League Against Rheumatism and American College of Rheumatology annual meetings. It included just 14 patients with severe refractory SLE \u2013 including 10 with lupus nephritis \u2013 and tested a treatment strategy of rituximab (Rituxan) followed a few weeks later by a course of belimumab (Benlysta).\n\u201cThe results were very dramatic, to say the least,\u201d said Dr. Bergman of Drexel University in Philadelphia. Indeed, this one-two therapeutic punch resulted in sharply reduced levels of pathogenic autoantibodies and immune complex-mediated neutrophil extracellular traps while also knocking down very high baseline Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Disease Activity Index (SLEDAI) scores to near zero, even while enabling patients to discontinue systemic corticosteroids and mycophenolate mofetil (CellCept). Several much larger clinical trials of this regimen and other similar ones are ongoing in an effort to duplicate the results.\nDr. Kavanaugh said the SymBiose study was one of his own top picks for study of the year as well.\nDr. Arthur Kavanaugh\n\u201cIt\u2019s an approach that makes sense: You use rituximab as a sort of induction therapy to deplete B cells, then serum levels of BAFF/BLys go sky high, so some weeks later you use belimumab to block that,\u201d explained Dr. Kavanaugh, professor of medicine and director of the Center for Innnovative Therapy in the division of rheumatology, allergy, and immunology at University of California, San Diego.\nMainstream use of dupilumab (Dupixent) for moderate to severe atopic dermatitis: \u201cThis is a total game changer. It\u2019s really changed a lot of people\u2019s lives,\u201d commented George M. Martin, MD, a dermatologist in private practice on Maui.\n\u201cInterestingly, historically drugs that started out in your realm later made their way to dermatology, but now we\u2019re seeing the IL-23 inhibitors starting with us and then making their way into rheumatology and gastroenterology. The IL-23 inhibitors are very powerful drugs; when we\u2019re seeing half of our psoriasis patients achieve PASI 100 responses, it\u2019s very exciting. And these are durable responses,\u201d he noted.\nJAK inhibitors for RA: Is VTE risk overblown?",

        "raw_content": "Posted on April 6, 2018 by meditationly\nDiscover Five Smart Reasons to Start Your Day With Meditation\nStress from work or other physical activities can damage the nervous system. The blood vessels will constrict and this results in a reduced blood flow to the tissues that need it. This reduced blood flow denies our muscles the oxygen that they need to fuel their functions and this results in muscle spasms. As a result, we do not start our day the right way. Consider five reasons to start the day with meditation and improve your overall quality of life.\nAcquire Wisdom Through Meditation\nStudies show that meditation balances the parts of the brain and results in a heightened sense of self-awareness. This makes the person experience overall peace, improving compassion and eradicating the mind of the useless stuff that he or she accumulates every day.\nWith a sound mind follows sound judgment. And this is the beginning of wisdom. When one does not feel inner peace, a person is not in a position to discern things in ways that the rational mind does. Normally, people are selfish and will only make decisions that will enrich them. With meditation, acts of selfishness, anger, and other emotions that bring negative vibes are taken away. With a clear mind and compassionate soul, you are in the best position to possess and exercise wisdom.\nDiscover Today\u2019s Purpose Through Meditation\nAfter meditation, one person can focus his attention on any single thing that he or she wants to develop. The mind becomes peaceful and this takes away all discomfort, worries, problems, and gives the person the ability to conclude or decide with sound judgment.\nWith meditation, any person can achieve the true purpose of life, which is to be happy and live life to the fullest. Without happiness, many things that happen every day are taken for granted and are therefore wasted. An unclean or chaotic mind will prevent you from living a happy and meaningful life even if you are financially secure.\nMeditation Improves Empathy\nMeditation improves your ability to feel compassionate because, during this activity, you have to free your mind of everything. And you have to strongly focus on thoughts of love, acceptance, kindness, and letting go of hatred and anger.\nResearch shows that during compassion meditation, there is an increased activity in the brain region called the insula. This is the region of the brain in which emotions are processed.\nIt Helps You Understand Your True Self\nThe true self is buried deep in the psyche. Meditation is the key component to opening mysteries in your mind because you withdraw yourself from the external world. As you meditate and clear your mind of useless babble, you reach a state in which you feel at peace.\nTherefore, it allows you to discover your true self, making you feel more confident about your decisions because knowing yourself in a deeper manner allows you to take the right path. The clarity of thought also empowers you to concentrate and do more from day to day.\nMeditation Reduces Anxiety Attacks\nMeditation can reduce the activity in the nervous system. Specifically, the parasympathetic nervous system predominates the mental state of a person who is meditating. This is the system responsible for soothing and calming an individual. During meditation, there is an increased blood flow that results in a bountiful oxygen supply to the lungs and brain, causing the body to relax and be in control. This is why meditation can help reduce anxiety attacks. It calms the nerves and balances the body\u2019s need for blood and oxygen.\nIf a person experiences anxiety attacks, there is also a significant lactate increase in his blood. Lactate is produced by the skeletal muscles. This substance is produced if there is an insufficient supply of oxygen in the body, which commonly happens when we are scared, panicking, or experiencing anxiety. During meditation, scientific studies have proven that there is a significant reduction in the lactate content found in the body. Thus, it is conclusive that meditation can really help reduce anxiety.\nPrevious PostPrevious Simple Ways to Fit Meditation Into Your Workday to Reduce Stress\nNext PostNext Does Meditation Help Improve Heart Health & Relieve Anxiety?",

Construction will begin in 2009.\nIt will cater to travellers facing a long drive to Halifax and an early morning flight, said Jerry Staples, vice-president of marketing and business development for the Halifax International Airport Authority.\nIt will be located next to the parking garage currently under construction, right across the street from the Air Canada terminal. Guests will be able to access both the parking garage and the hotel by pedway.\n\u201cThe industry looked at Halifax as, pardon the pun, a sleeper market. The hotel chains just hadn\u2019t made the investment here that they\u2019d made in other cities,\u201d Staples said.\nLongtime Halifax residents may remember the last attempt to build a hotel attached to the airport, in the early 1990s ended with the wrecking ball, after the building\u2019s skeleton stayed unfinished for years.\nStaples said two feasibility studies, done in 2005 and 2006, showed the market can support another airport hotel.\n\u2013rachel.boomer@metronews.ca",

        "raw_content": "New Housing in Zurich: Typologies for a Changing Society\nAuthor: Dominique Boudet\nSwiss architecture is commonly conotated with the names of celebrated architects such as Marion Botta, Peter Zumthor, or Herzog & de Meuron, and with their iconic buildings. Yet there is much more to the topic than, for example, beautiful private houses or spectacular public projects such as museums. This new book looks at the Swiss variety of co-operative housing developments with a special focus on the city of Zurich. Over the past two decades, such developments have changed significantly. Support by public funding and open competitions have helped to design and realise a vast number of highly innovative co-operative projects in Zurich over that period. Many of them can serve as well as models for how to meet the constantly increasing demand for urban housing. New Housing in Zurich is the first comprehensive survey of contemporary co-operative estates in Switzerland's largest city. It features some 50 projects by type, lavishly illustrated with images and plans, thus also providing a typology of multi-unit residential architecture.\nEssays on the history of co-operative housing in Switzerland, the interplay between co-operatives and the city and their impact on urban development on the larger scale, on new urban and architectural concepts, on co-operatives in the post-industrial age, and on their social dynamics round out the volume.\nAuthor : Dominique Boudet",

Notably, procedural and technology advances over the last 20-30 years have made it possible to perform surgeries in an ASC, which had previously only been performed in a hospital. One example is total hip and total knee replacements. Another is complex spinal procedures, which have only become a viable option in the last five years.\nIn next week\u2019s blog, we\u2019ll look at specialties that are well positioned to transition some patient cases to an ASC setting, and what factors, including reimbursement decisions, patient outcomes, and technology are a fit with ASCs, so stay tuned!\nPartnering with specialty physician practices as they evaluate strategic alternatives for their businesses represents a significant portion of our work in the healthcare space.

        "raw_content": "Adm. Kurt Tidd, the Southcom commander, arrived Thursday night to preside at the brief ceremony in the base chapel \u2014 and introduce Cashman to representatives of the Navy community of about 5,500 residents as \u201cone of our Navy\u2019s rising stars.\u201d Tidd called Cashman \u201cno stranger to pressure and intense scrutiny\u201d as he became the 17th commander of detainee operations.\n\u201cMake no mistake about it, detainee operations are an essential tool in our counterterrorism tool kit. They\u200b\u2019re an operational, legal and moral imperative against an unconventional enemy,\u201d Tidd said.\nA total of 41 captives remain of the 780 or so men and boys who passed through the prison camps since a Marine general opened Camp X-Ray in January 2002. If Congress hadn\u2019t blocked it, the Obama administration would have transferred the last 41 to the United States to close that chapter of history. Instead, 10 of those who remain have been charged at the war court, called military commissions, and the rest are considered prisoners in the War on Terror.\nThe departing commander, Rear Adm. Peter J. Clarke, was the first submariner to lead the detention center staff, and left to an uncertain future. He was temporarily assigned to the Washington, D.C., headquarters of the Chief of Naval Personnel, pending a future assignment.\nHe was also the last so-called closer, a detention center commander who ran the camps during an aggressive period of downsizing of the detainees, if not the staff.\nWhen he took charge, in late 2015, there were 112 captives and a staff of about 2,100 troops and civilians \u2014 a ratio of nearly 19 staff for every prisoner. He was charged with sending away captives as State and Defense Department envoys arranged for their transfer. And he did so with alacrity, dispatching 71 detainees to such far-flung locations as Mauritania in western Africa, Oman on the Arabian Sea and Serbia in southeast Europe.\nFriday, Cashman\u2019s staff numbered about 1,550 troops and 200 civilians. That\u2019s nearly 38 troops for each prisoner \u2014 from guards to medical staff to personnel and intelligence specialists. Many were drawn from the National Guard on assignments of a year or less serving in what Tidd called a force of \u201cordinary people performing an extraordinarily important mission.\u201d\nCashman takes charge as essentially the \u201cre-opener\u201d \u2014 poised to accept the first new prisoner since March 2008, if U.S. forces take a captive suitable for Prisoner-of-War style detention or war crimes trial by military commissions.\n\u201c\u200bWe don\u2019t know what the future holds,\u201d Tidd told the assembly. \u201cWe know that detainee operations at Guant\u00e1namo will continue unless or until the very last detainee departs the island. We know that these missions will continue unless otherwise directed by our Secretary of Defense and our President. We know this mission might evolve as we continue confronting threats to our nation and to our way of life.\u201d\n\u201cIf operations here expand, if they change, or if they stay the same, you\u2019re ready.\u201d\nCashman, a Massachusetts native, got a mechanical engineering degree at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Most of his career has been in the Navy although prior to this position he was director of the Pentagon\u2019s Joint Integrated Air and Missile Defense Organization, which involves all the services.\nThe Joint Task Force Commander has oversight of the predominantly Army guard force, an intelligence unit, logistics and personnel as well as a U.S. Coast Guard unit that patrols parts of Guant\u00e1namo Bay and the waters off the coastal prison complex.\nCashman ran a combined Navy-Coast Guard operation of patrol craft in the Persian Gulf, where U.S. military sometimes engage Iranian vessels. That\u2019s just what happened in January 2012, when a Coast Guard patrol boat, the Monomoy, saved six Iranian mariners from an unseaworthy Iranian cargo dhow whose engine room was flooding in a \u201cnighttime rescue at sea\u201d celebrated by Cashman, then commander of Task Force 55, overseeing the operation.\nIn his farewell remarks, Clarke paid particular homage to the Navy medical staff of 100 or so members that tends to captors and captives in what he called \u201cthe most scrutinized military medicine mission in the world.\u201d\nSouthcom surged medical staff into the prison\u2019s cellblocks at the height of the sweeping 2013 hunger strike. And, as he left Friday, Clarke called the captives \u201cmore compliant as patients than our own troopers and the American population as a whole.\u201d\nREAD MORE Guant\u00e1namo commander awaiting transfer order, too\nGuant\u00e1namo detention center commanders\n1.

        "raw_content": "Wondering who needs IVF? In vitro fertilization is one of the most successful infertility treatments. The first IVF baby, Louise Brown, was born in England in 1978. Since then, IVF has been responsible for the birth of over one million babies worldwide. In fact, 1% of all babies born in the US and 5% of babies born in Europe are from IVF.\nThe goal of IVF\nIVF was originally for women with blocked or missing fallopian tubes. It now treats nearly all causes of infertility. Couples in which the male has a very low or even absent sperm count can now conceive through IVF. If you have endometriosis, or scar tissue that affects the tubes or ovaries, or other tubal problems, IVF is usually the most effective and safest way to become pregnant. Couples often turn to IVF when other fertility treatments, such as fertility drugs or insemination, are unsuccessful. IVF can be used to prevent genetic disorders with the use of preimplantation genetic diagnosis, PGD.\nIn IVF, you will be on fertility drugs that help your ovaries produce multiple eggs. Once the eggs have grown to maturity, they will be removed by the use of ultrasound and fertilized with your partner\u2019s sperm in the laboratory. The fertilized eggs develop into embryos, of which one or more will be placed into your uterus.\nThe IVF process includes five different steps:\nsuppression of the ovaries",

        "raw_content": "Wyoming Man Who Sought Military Pension Gets 15 Years\nAssociated Press | By Ben Neary\nCHEYENNE, Wyo. -- A federal judge on Thursday imposed a 15-year prison sentence on a Wyoming man who had sought unsuccessfully to have his sentencing on child sex-crime convictions delayed so he could qualify for a military pension.\nA federal jury in October convicted Army National Guard Lt. Timothy Wells of sexual exploitation of a child and other charges. Prosecutors say the crimes occurred at the F.E. Warren Air Force Base in Cheyenne.\nU.S. District Judge Alan B. Johnson of Cheyenne recently denied a request from Wells to release him from custody temporarily and reschedule his sentencing for April to allow him to finish the 20 years of military service necessary to qualify for a pension.\nAssistant Federal Public Defender James Barrett told Johnson in court that Wells essentially was receiving a life sentence. Wells will have to register as a sex offender after his release from prison.\n\"His career is gone; his pension is gone,\" Barrett said. \"His future, for all intents and purposes, isn't gone, but it is tremendously diminished.\"\nThe victim addressed Johnson, speaking softly while standing at a lectern in the large courtroom. The Associated Press is not identifying the victim.\n\"I feel like wherever I turn, I can't get away from it,\" she said, describing the effect of Wells' offenses on her life.\nProsecutor Thomas Szott told Johnson that the victim had suffered for a long time as a result of Wells' actions. \"Mr. Wells is in this position, your honor, because of choices that he made,\" Szott said.\nWells addressed Johnson before the judge pronounced sentence. Wells wore orange jail clothing, and stood shackled at the wrists and ankles.\n\"In the Army, we're taught not to run from a fight,\" Wells said. He said he disagreed with some of the things that had been presented at the hearing.\nIn imposing the sentence, Johnson, himself an Air Force veteran, said Wells case was not the sort that often comes before a federal judge. He said he attributed that to the quality of the people who live on the Air Force base in Cheyenne.\n\"Deservedly so, we are proud of the men and women who serve in our military and in our national guard,\" Johnson said.\n\"This is a tragic moment and a sad moment for Mr. Wells and his life,\" Johnson said. \"A life that, in many aspects, he tried to live with honor and failed\" because of his fixation on the victim.\nThis story has been corrected to show Wells received a 15-year sentence. An earlier version reported incorrectly he received 18 years.\nArmy National Guard Crime",

        "title": "Fire Suppression System: The Hazards of Electrical Fires and How They Start",
        "raw_content": "Your Electrical Appliances Could Kill You\nIn a recent statistical study, it was confirmed that there are at least 51,000 fires each year. Of these fires, electrical distribution systems are the third leading cause. It has been confirmed by the Electrical Safety Foundational International that arcing faults are responsible for initiating more than 28,000 home fires. Of these thousands of fires, the damage costs reached up to 700 million dollars. So, why do these fires start? Is there a way to prevent them. The key to prevention is education; in this blog, we will discuss what causes house fires and how to do your part to make sure that you are never a victim.\nThough a society without electricity is improbable, there are steps we can make that use electrical resources in a safer way. After all, electrical fires aren\u2019t something to overlook, as people have lost their lives to house fires. On average, 2,570 people die from house fires annually.\nThe biggest culprit of these fires is faulty outlets. These types of outlets are common in old homes. Most of the reason for this is that people who own older homes don\u2019t take the time to update appliances. So, due to the age of the outdated appliances, electricity cannot be utilized properly. Other outlet fires are caused by faults in appliance cords or switches. If any appliance has a worn or frayed cord, immediately remove it and throw it away. Because of the exposed wires, heat can be transferred into the floors, curtains, and rugs. Because all of these things are made from thread, they are very flammable.\nIf you have a home, never let cords run underneath your rugs. If the system is updated, or even new, heat can still be transferred to the rug. If you remove the grounding plug from a cord so it can be used within a two-prong outfit, it can cause a fire. Outlets tend to have extra prongs so that they can be used in outlets that can handle the designated surge of electricity that an appliance requires.\nLamps, light bulbs, and other lighting fixtures all have the potential of causing house fires. When you install a bulb in a lamp, you must make sure that the watt intake is comparable. For example, if the wattage is too high for the lamp it could easily become overwhelmed and cause a fire. When buying a lamp and bulbs, you should always check the minimum bulb wattage on any light fixture. Make sure you never go over the recommended amount.\nExtension cords can be so useful in a home, especially when appliances have small cords. However, as a rule, it is best to plug appliances directly into their outlets. Extension cords, unfortunately, are accident prone. Because power isn\u2019t going directly into your appliance, there is a chance a bit of the electricity will be ignored. Extension cords often lay of the ground due to excess cord. If the extension cord is plugged in with a major appliance, it can cause a house fire. The best way to keep this type of fire from happening is by hiring an electrician. With the help of a professional, you will be able to install new outlets so your appliances will be able to get direct power.\nIn the winter time, a space heater can be a blessing. They keep your home warm, even in the coldest of temperatures. Best of all, space heaters are portable so they can be positioned anywhere in your house. Let\u2019s face it, you spend a lot of time in your house in sitting positions on your couch or your bed. After a long day, staying cozy in your bed with a heater is ideal. However, space heaters can be unpredictable because they can get too hot and cause fires on any combustible surface. In homes, people tend to place their heaters too close to their couch, curtains, and even bed. Because of this, thread material can catch fire and set the rest of the house ablaze. Worse, because space heaters are so unpredictable and raise to such dramatic temperatures, it is easy to underestimate how far away to position them. The best way to fix the problem is to set your heater as far away from any surface as possible. And, you should also make sure you know the age of the space heater. Older models can be unstable and become dangerously hot. Worse, they can cause burns to any surface they are near.\nKeep in mind that coil heaters are dangerous. If you want to buy a heater make sure that it is not a coiled model. Coiled space heater temperatures are difficult to control, which means they are extremely flammable.\nOutdated wiring can cause electrical fires just as easily as any of the above things we have mentioned. If a home is older (around 20 years old), it may not have the wiring abilities as a younger, new house. Because of this, the wiring may not be able to handle increased amounts of electrical appliances, such as a coffee maker, a computer, and any other appliances that fill your home. Modern times have made it so that humans are dependent on electricity. Because of this need to be connected, homes are expected to have more capacity for electricity. Older homes, with older wiring, will not be able to keep up. Your home\u2019s breaker system will respond to the surge of electricity. However, if your breaker box is an older model, the amount of electricity might cause it to overload and cause a fire. The best way to combat this problem is by hiring an electrician and replacing some of the wires in your home. You also will have to speak with an electrician about how much electricity input your home can currently take.\nThe key with electrical fires is to stay informed about how they start and how to prevent them. Much of the issue with electrical fires is that they begin in our homes when we least expect them. In fact, 65 percent of house fire deaths occur when there is no fire protection system installed prior to the fire. That means, without a smoke detector of a sprinkler system in place, homeowners aren\u2019t aware of the fire. And, because they inhale the toxic fumes of the fire, they often never make it out of the house. MLN Fire Company wants every homeowner to know the importance of fire suppression systems. Not only will they alert anyone in the home of a fire, they will help contain the flames until the fire department is at the scene. Protect your family, your home, and your interests with a fire sprinkler system from MLN Fire. Contact us today.\nfire sprinkler system, fire suppression system",

His best friend has helped me a lot and we are very close. All of a sudden I have a desire to have a sexual relationship. I hinted and he told me he definitely wanted to. I am afraid it will ruin our relationship or I will fall in love and he won\u2019t. Maybe he just wants sex and I have never done that. I told him I was scared and worried and nervous. He is not. I feel weird but still can\u2019t quit thinking about it. What should I do? M.\nAnswer: Dear M.: I think it was probably too soon to \u201chint\u201d to your deceased husband\u2019s friend that you were interested in him sexually. On the other hand, it may have been wise to get those feelings out into the open so you could both take at look at what was going on.\nYou have both had a huge loss. You are supporting each other in going through that loss and in the process you have become closer. Feelings that are so intense can easily be translated into sexual feelings. For instance, you may be feeling needy and he may be feeling protective.\nHowever, that doesn\u2019t mean it\u2019s a good time to act on those feelings. Life is complicated enough without bringing in the guilt factor. And you would both feel disloyal. If at all possible, talk about this with each other and then table it. Agree to come back to it in a year, if you are both still interested\u2026after you have built some stability.\nYou need to get past the time when you might possibly want to fill the empty place left by your husband with the first available, (I hope he\u2019s available), man and your husband\u2019s friend must get past the same possibility of seeing you as the closest to the real thing as he can get. Right now, all of your feelings are raw and confusion may be a big part of it.\nBuild mutual respect and a solid friendship, for now, and let the rest go, (for now.) Blessings, Luise",

        "title": "Pensions regulator director on why scammers should fear his agency - Money Marketing",
        "raw_content": "View more on these topicsPensions Regulation Analysis\nTowards the end of his distinguished two-decade career at audit giant KPMG, David Fairs was at the top but felt restless. Although he was a partner and had achieved a lot with the firm, he had ambitions to do something different.\nThose ambitions centred on wanting to shape the direction of pensions legislation and improve the governance of pension schemes. In July last year, Fairs rose to that challenge when he became executive director for regulatory policy, analysis and advice at The Pensions Regulator.\nAt Money Marketing\u2019s offices off Oxford Street, Fairs takes a glance out of the window when asked what the relevance of TPR, and his role, is to the average financial adviser.\nHe responds: \u201cWe as an organisation focus on getting good member outcomes and we will work with other regulators where we see inappropriate advice. For instance, we work very closely with the FCA where we see scams and bad behaviour.\u201d\nWorking with other regulators to get results is the core component of what Fairs believes makes an effective watchdog.\nThis is because talking about the need for good governance in pension schemes is far easier than making it a reality. That observation can also be applied to the whole supervisory architecture.\nHe says: \u201cI have been involved with policy in the past when I was chairman of the Association of Consulting Actuaries for a couple of years. It was an interesting period, when Steve Webb was pensions minister. He had the defined ambition agenda and I chaired one of the industry working groups. So I had this experience and was frustrated change was not happening, but there was some naivety on my part. Working at TPR has made me realise making policy is much more complex than I realised. It is very exciting for me to understand how it actually works.\u201d\nDavid Fairs\nA career in brief\nFairs is currently the executive director for regulatory policy, analysis and advice at TPR, a role he started in July last year.\nSince November, he has been on the board of supervisors of the European Insurance and Occupational Pensions Authority.\nHe is also an advisory board member for the Association for Business Psychology and Essex University\u2019s department of mathematics.\nPreviously, Fairs was a partner at KPMG for 23 years and at Aon Consulting for 11 years prior to that. He was chairman of the Association of Consulting Actuaries between 2014 and 2016, and is also a past chairman of The Actuaries\u2019 Club and advisory board member to TPR.\nThe learning has come at considerable speed as Fairs has had to grapple with issues from Brexit to the pensions dashboard and defined benefit super-funds. Fortunately for Fairs, the culture at the watchdog and the resources at his disposal have helped him get on top of his brief.\nHe says: \u201cI thought it would take a long time to feel comfortable at TPR but it did not, despite the fact it has grown to 700 people. It is very welcoming and open. People chat to me in the lift; there is a family feel and it has been a much easier transition than I thought it would be.\u201d\nFairs has 120 people working under him, divided into two teams. The first is a 30-strong policy team of specialists that works with the FCA, Department for Work and Pensions and other entities to look at issues such as the current consultations on DB super-funds and collective defined contribution schemes.\nThe second team consists of 90 staff, including actuaries, business analysts, lawyers and investment consultants, dealing with actuarial, legal and investment issues.\nOver the past year, Fairs estimates they have spent half of their time supporting the policy team\u2019s work on DB super-funds and CDCs. The other half of their time has been spent helping provide relevant guidance and expertise to case managers in TPR\u2019s frontline case team.\nFairs is certainly determined to make a difference and argues his decision to move from KPMG to TPR is not a step down, career-wise.\nHe says: \u201cThere was a snobbish reaction to what I was doing from some in the sense of \u2018why do you want to go there?\u2019 The one thing that actually irritated me was they said \u2018it is nice you are giving something back to the industry\u2019. I find this very condescending. Maybe they saw being a partner at KPMG was a pinnacle and this was stepping down. TPR has some of the greatest intellectual challenges you can think of.\n\u201cI have just come from discussing DB super-funds with other regulators and the challenge of how to regulate them. Working out how these DB super-funds would work is a huge intellectual task.\u201d\nPerhaps the hardest part of the job is the need to be tough but also fair as a regulator. He says: \u201cThere is a balance here. Being a regulator is not a popularity contest; it is about making tough decisions and protecting members\u2019 interests, and ensuring good member outcomes.\n\u201cThat does not always make you liked and I would be concerned if we came top in a popularity contest.\n\u201cIf you are trying to do the right things then actually you should respect the regulator. If you are a scammer or you are doing something that is not appropriate then you should fear the regulator and should expect us to take action against you.\u201d\nThe July Budget: salary sacrifice\nIn the run-up to the Budget, there was some concern that the chancellor might \u2018call time\u2019 on the use of salary sacrifice in employee benefits provision.\nPaul Moll 7th February 2019 at 3:14 pm\nShould fear ??? I assume that means going forward but based on 2010 \u2013 2019 I bet the scammers are quaking in their boots\u2026. not !\n700 STAFF and still the Scammers are winning; make the pension/SIPP providers responsible in statute, NOW!\nAlan Gibbins 7th February 2019 at 4:44 pm\nHeadline says that it will explain WHY scammers should be in fear. Nothing in there that explains that.\nAlso with FCA confirming only 10 of FCA\u2019s 3,700 staff work on pension scams team I can\u2019t see any scammers stopping.\nKevin Soutar 8th February 2019 at 11:02 am\nA bit late are they not",

In fact, some of you may have already seen your first snowflakes this fall season!\nIt's that time of year to make sure your car is ready for snow and ice. It's not too late if the season has already started as well. How can you make sure that your car is indeed ready for snow and ice? Here are a few tips and ideas to make sure you are winter-ready!\nLooking at your vehicle now, when is the last time your car had a tune up? This is a great time to make sure your car's battery, brakes, heater, and defroster are in top notch shape. This is not only good for your car's benefit but for your safety as well. Also check your car's fluids like antifreeze, etc.\nHow about your windshield wiper blades? When was the last time you changed them? If you can't remember, it's time! Driving in snow and ice with weak and old blades is dangerous and puts you at risk for harm and danger while driving.\nAre your tire treads worn? It's time to get new tires for your safety in the snow and ice.\nCheck all of your car's headlights and taillights. This is of utmost importance. It's also illegal to drive with a bulb out.\nTo go above and beyond, make sure your car's interior is winter ready with proper mats, etc.\nUltimately, don't forget an emergency and first aid kit in the event you are stranded in the snow.",

My favorite memories from my childhood were from our summers at Lake Powell water skiing, cliff jumping, and spending time with friends and family. I've always wanted to travel the world. I have a dream of traveling to the Holy Land, riding a camel at Petra, rock climbing in Thailand, backpacking in Ireland, volunteering in India, and climbing Huayna Picchu in Peru. I love beautiful things. I love being in the mountains, camp fires, and I'm kind of obsessed with Harry Potter. I was always active in the church but it wasn't until high school that I really gained my own testimony. I was able to find peace and joy in the gospel and I came to understand God's plan for me as an individual. God made it very clear that His path for me was better than anything I could come up with for myself. The summer after my sophomore year I was blessed to be given the opportunity to be a counselor at Oakcrest Girls Camp for young women in our church ages 13-14. I was paid to sing camp songs at the top of my lungs and share my testimony of my Savior with the youth of the church. It was one of the hardest things I have ever done, but it was the best summer I have ever had and it changed my life. I found my love for sharing the message of the restored gospel, and I decided to put my communications major on hold to serve a full time mission for the church!\nI'm a Mormon because I have come to know for myself that the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is Christ's church once again established on the earth. It has brought me lasting and true happiness and helped me gain a better understanding of the plan our Heavenly Father has and the person I can become.\nI served for 18 months as a missionary in Cleveland, Ohio. I was able to meet incredible people and share with them God's plan for His children. It was the hardest thing I have ever done but I learned a lot about faith, hope, and the Atonement. I was able to serve in the Historic Kirtland Visitors' Center during my mission where I taught people about the history of the Church in northeastern Ohio. I grew to love church history and the saints that demonstrated great faith. Now that I am back at college I participate in ward activities and try my best to continue doing missionary work. I live my faith every day by reading my scriptures, praying, attending the temple, and serving those around me.",

        "raw_content": "In music discovery, 30 is the new old\nStill listening to your fave grunge records on repeat because all the new stuff is nonsense? Are you convinced Triple J has gone off the boil and those other networks are programmed by tone-deaf kids? It\u2019s ok. You\u2019re not alone. You\u2019re just old. And when it comes to discovering music, 30 is the new old.\nA new study commissioned by the France-based streaming service Deezer found most consumers give up finding new music nuggets when they reach the big 3-0. The reasons are many and varied, from lack of time and energy, feeling overwhelmed by the tens of millions of tunes at your fingertips, raising kids and, in some cases, just not caring any more. In general, adult stuff gets in the way.\nDeezer surveyed 1,000 Brits about their music preferences and listening habits, and found 60% of respondents were stuck with their golden oldies, with just over a quarter saying they wouldn\u2019t be likely to try music they\u2019re not familiar with.\nWhen it comes with music discovery, we tend to peak at 24\nWhich just so happens to be at the top end of target demographic for Triple J, the self-styled \u201cmusic discovery\u201d platform. At this age, roughly three quarters of respondents reported listening to ten or more new tracks per week and 64% said they were pursuing at least five new artists each month.\nAccording to the findings, women are likely to mature earlier, finding their peak of musical discovery at age 23 years and four months.\nAlmost half of those interviewed for the survey said they wish they could spend more time discovering new music, with about two fifths predicting they would spend more time seeking out new artists.\nAdam Read, the U.K. & Ireland music editor at Deezer, calls this totally normal opt-out phenomenon \u201cmusical paralysis,\u201d and there\u2019s no known cure, except, perhaps, a curious nature and an insatiable appetite for new music.\nBroadcasters and streaming brands already know their listeners graduate and move on\nThe smart ones will accept that, and give them something they want. It\u2019s a drum the BBC and the ABC, which launched Double J specifically to serve \u201cmature\u201d music fans, have been banging for years. Now we know when the new music stops for most folks.",

        "raw_content": "Editorial: Cooperation a necessary key to business success\nTHE ISSUE The LPGA Championship presented by Wegmans generated activity for businesses throughout the region\nOUR VIEW As local tourism packages demonstrate, no business operates in a vacuum.\nAn individualistic society with a history of independence and pioneer spirit, like ours, can sometimes lose sight of the fact that it is, in fact, a society. That implies independence is tempered by a sense of interdependence.\nPut less highfalutin\u2019? We\u2019re all in this together. \u201cThis\u201d meaning a moribund state and national economy, in which individuals, businesses and municipalities strive to thrive. They frequently discover that cooperation is a key to success. Finding common goals and working together to capitalize on them can bring success to many.\nAn example: The businesses that take part in more than 45 different vacation packages offered by the Finger Lakes Visitors Connection, packages that usually include several nights at a bed and breakfast or hotel along with certificates or vouchers to area businesses. One package, or example, includes accommodations at the Abner Adams House, a dinner cruise through an Erie Canal lock and admission to Sonnenberg Gardens in Canandaigua and its Finger Lakes Wine Center.\nAmong the more recent such endeavors: Three local gay-owned businesses banded together to offer a special deal aimed at the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community during Pride Month. Taking part are the Chalet of Canandaigua, Wick-edly Sent Soap and Candle Company and Angelic Dreamz.\nOK, there have always been promotion packages and joint business efforts. But it\u2019s important to remember sometimes that success isn\u2019t a zero-sum game: That if a regional economy is healthy, it\u2019s healthy for those in the region as well. And the good fortune doesn\u2019t stop at a town or county line.\nCase in point: The LPGA Championship presented by Wegmans was held at Locust Hill Country Club in Pittsford, in Monroe County \u2014 but the business community in Ontario County towns such as Victor, not far away from the greens, saw an uptick due to the tournament. Eastview Mall eateries, for instance, saw jumps in customers up to 20 percent.\nA common-sense truism, maybe, but one worth repeating, often: We\u2019re all in this together.",

        "raw_content": "A LEAP TOWARDS TRANSFORMATION\nKesineni Nani has taken every road that leads to the development of Vijayawada. A modern-minded headman with zeal to work for his people - Nani has created history by bringing in the Tata Trusts to create 265 model Gram Panchayats in the Vijayawada Parliamentary Constituency. Following the combined vision of Mr. Ratan Tata and Nani to holistically develop Vijayawada using a cluster-based approach, the Tata Trusts\u2019 team has carried out several initiatives in terms of health, education, employment and more. The Trusts have set up a dedicated project management unit in Vijayawada and continue to work with a strategic approach.\nTata Trusts began their development journey in Vijayawada with a micro planning exercise to map the existing resources and challenges in every village of the constituency. This enabled the project teams to understand the region using data analytics and track change through real time dashboards. As part of the micro planning exercise, Tata Trusts created Village Developmental Plans for each of these Gram Panchayats in consultation with the local communities and officials. The Village Development Plans provided a microscopic view at the issues in each village and the resources required to create necessary solutions.\nKesineni Nani and Tata Trusts launched Swastha Kutumbam in December 2016, as a revolutionary healthcare program for more than a million people from the Vijayawada Parliamentary Constituency. The first-of-its-kind program is divided into 2 parts for effective delivery \u2013 Free Health Insurance Cards and Telemedicine Centres. Under the \u2018Swastha Kutumbam\u2019 health insurance program, over 2 Lakh rural families of Vijayawada have been insured for a medical cover of up to 1L rupees for each family member. With the Swastha Kutumbam Telemedicine program, patients can now access point-of-care diagnostics and pharmacy services at the doorstep through the 20+ telemedicine health centres and mobile units that have been set up across the Vijayawada Parliamentary Constituency.\nMaking Vijayawada Open Defecation Free (ODF) has been a top priority for Kesineni Nani. In collaboration with the Vijayawada Municipal and Panchayat bodies as well Tata Trusts, Nani has worked to ensure a healthy and hygienic future for the people of Vijayawada. One of the major causes for disease in the rural areas of Vijayawada was open defecation. Tata Trusts launched the Swachh Krishna Mission to make the villages ODF. Given the success of the mission in Vijayawada, Tata Trusts partnered with 3 NGOs - CPF, MARI and AGS for rolling out the project all over the district.\nKesineni Nani and Tata Trusts have been promoting internet literacy, as part of a multifarious plan to cultivate a culture of entrepreneurship among the people of Vijayawada, especially youth and women, and to bring awareness of the latest technological trends. Internet Saathi, as part of a collaboration between Google India and Tata Trusts, has opened up a whole new world of livelihood opportunities for over 3 lakh rural beneficiaries.\nCENTER OF EXCELLENCE OF\nWASH ACADEMY\nPROSPERITY MISSION",

With Guts magazine, Roisin created a dynamic platform for Writers and Illustrators the likes of which Dublin had never seen, she gave me and several other Illustrators and writers the ability to push there work further, and into strange new places.

        "raw_content": "Oh let this be, where I die. My Lord with thee, crucified. Be lifted high as my kingdoms fall. Once and for all.\nThis has been my prayer recently. It\u2019s been about 3 months since I\u2019ve last written anything. To be honest, it has been 3 months since I last truly prayed. I wish I had some \u2018acceptable\u2019 reason but I don\u2019t. There was no family emergency that demanded my time. There was no crazy busy work schedule that stole my precious moments before the King. There was no debilitating illness I was undergoing which prevented my prayers and praises from going up. I simply stopped.\nNot willingly\u2026but not unwillingly either. I became bogged down with life. I became confused. I became numb, and my \u201cI\u2019ll pray later\u201d \u2018s turned into \u201cI\u2019ll pray tomorrow\u201d which turned into \u201cI\u2019ll read my bible at church\u201d which turned into, \u201cI\u2019m too busy to go to church today.\u201d Suddenly, my prayer life was in shambles and so was my natural.\nMy \u2018I\u2019ll pray later\u2019 turned into \u2018I\u2019ll pray tomorrow\u2019 which turned into \u2018I\u2019m too busy to go to church.\nMy child was acting up. My husband and I were fighting. My friends and I were falling out. I was lonely, angry, frustrated, overwhelmed. Let\u2019s talk about the loneliness I felt. This was not a normal lonely. It was recognition that I strayed from God\u2026and I could see it. My body could feel it. My spirit could feel like. This aching as if there was something more. What a terrible feeling to experience.\nIt\u2019s been months since I\u2019ve written anything until today. I am sure that\u2019s because today is the first day I\u2019ve truly prayed. Spent time with God on purpose today. I made it a point to sit before Him\u2026.not to ask of anything other than forgiveness. To beg He wouldn\u2019t turn His face from me. To please not give me over to a reprobate mind. For the first time, in my 28 years of living, I was afraid of God.\nI should explain that further. I reverenced Him. I found myself in tears with a repentant heart, because in the instance He allowed me into His presence, I realized who He is. God is a Holy God. For the past 3 months and honestly, my whole life, I have taken for granted His loving kindness and mercy.\nI have \u201cASSUMED\u201d that I can get away with sin if I just say \u201csorry\u201d and mean it. I have acted as if the Lord of Lords, is one basic entity and not the Alpha and Omega. I have disrespected his temple; my body; by allowing things in that are not of Him. I have distanced myself from Him assuming the position of being my own god. You know, the. \u201cI got this\u201d spirit. The, \u201cI don\u2019t need to pray about it. I know what to do\u201d mindset.\nSuddenly, as I sat before Him, my heart broke. I realized just how I\u2019d been truly treating God. As if He was common. As if He owed me something. As if I was doing Him a favor to be before Him. I may be the only person who has done this. I may be the only person in the history of mankind to falter this way. But I wanted to share because I wanted to proclaim how sweet God is.\nWhile trembling (literally) in His presence in tears repenting, came a correction from the Holy Spirit that was so gentle. I wish I could describe it but words won\u2019t do justice. Suddenly my reverence and fear shifted to praise and thanks. And suddenly I felt a burden lift. I was able to just sit in His glory and praise Him. And my heart rested assured that He hadn\u2019t turned His face from me.\nWhat a merciful God!\nSisters, I am being transparent today. Today I am lifting God high as my kingdoms fall. Not kingdoms the enemy erected but Kingdoms I built. Kingdoms I worked day and night on to strengthen in my own power. I am writing my heart down for all to see, so that you won\u2019t make the mistake I made\u2026so you won\u2019t find yourself in this pit as I did.\nI know that life gets busy and we get tired. We are wives. We are mothers. We are employees. We are daughters. We are sisters and friends. We have 150,000 things to do by 10:00 am. I know. We feel unappreciated at times. I know. We get discouraged at times. I know. We feel cheated at times. I know. But sis, the only one who gives us to the power to be and do all those things and more, is the one who issued the call. Jesus Christ. Our strength comes from Him and him alone. If you are tired and you\u2019re thinking, I\u2019ll just read my word tomorrow. I\u2019ll just pray tomorrow. Please, Please, I beg of you, to get up and pray your hardest right then and there. Prayer is our lifeline to God. It is how we get directions from Him. It is how we stay close in communication to Him. It is in our prayer closet where He reveals himself to us in such special ways. Don\u2019t cheat yourself out of that.\nAs children of God that have been adopted into His kingdom family, we get the privilege to be before Him. A Holy God who has chosen us. Recognize the privilege and honor attached to that.\nMy prayer my dear sisters, is that we would lift God high as our kingdoms fall. That we would die to self, once and for all. I pray that we would lay it down. Every concern. Every fear. Every hurt. Every dream and aspiration. Every desire. Every hidden part. That we would lay it all down to Him\u2026for Him. And that we would willingly carry our crosses. That we would willingly answer the call. That we would willingly praise and worship. I pray that in the moments when \u201cI\u2019ll pray later\u201d pops in our minds, the Holy Spirit will stir in our bellies to rise up and pray like never before. I pray we never become satisfied and comfortable in our walks with God. I pray that Jesus would forever be enough for us!\nIn Jesus\u2019 MATCHLESS name,",

Fyfe in 1943 (later reprinted in 1955 and reissued in 1961), Stanford University Press, Stanford, CA. 637pg.\nYou won't find any more of a classic book on falconry than this one -- it was the first major work published on falconry, and has been acclaimed in ornithological textbooks as a hallmark book on the study of birds. Although it has been 750 years since this treatise was written, much of it was penned in a manner that reflects the knowledge and experience of some of the best modern falconers. Not only does it address the training and hunting of birds of prey, but it contains a wealth of information on the ecology and behavior of waterfowl and upland game birds as well.\n\u00b7 THE GOSHAWK\nWhite, T.H. 1996. Lyons and Burford Co., New York, NY. 215pg.\nThis book was first published in 1951. It is a well-written classic about a man learning about falconry.\n\u00b7 A HAWK FOR THE BUSH\nMavrogordato, J. 1960. Clarkson N. Potter, Inc. New York, NY. 206pg.\nA classic book on training shortwings, with an emphasis on Old World short-winged hawks. Expect to pay big bucks for this book, if you can find a copy (out of print and in high demand).\n\u00b7 THE ART AND PRACTICE OF HAWKING (7th edition)\nMitchell, E.B. 1971. Charles T. Branford Co., Newton, MA. 291pg.\nThis classic book on falconry in Great Britain was first published in 1900. This reference is better for providing a glimpse of what falconry was like during the late 1800's in England, rather than being a guide for the practice of falconry in North America today.\n\u00b7 OBSERVATIONS ON MODERN FALCONRY\nStevens, R. 1978. . Falconiformes Press Ltd., Saskatoon, Sask. 112pg. (ISBN 0-920158-04-8)\nAn excellent text that entirely lacks pictures and diagrams. Yet, this book provides excellent food for thought and reflection for someone who has already trained a couple of birds. It has brief but excellent passages on hooding, hacking, and the gyrfalcon.\nNatural History And Biology Of Raptors\n\u00b7 LIFE HISTORIES OF NORTH AMERICAN BIRDS OF PREY (Vol. I & II)\nBent, A.C. 1937-1938. , Smithsonian Institution, Washington, D.C. 409pg & 482 pg.\nThese two volumes, which are part of a larger set of volumes dedicated to the life histories of all North American birds, represent one of the most comprehensive looks into the lives of raptors. Have plenty of time available, if you should choose to read these two volumes cover to cover.\n\u00b7 POPULATION ECOLOGY OF RAPTORS\nNewton, I. 1979. , Buteo Books, Vermilion, SD. 399pg.\nDr. Ian Newton is considered by many authorities to be the leading raptor biologist in the world. In this book, he synthesizes virtually all of the published literature that existed on raptor population biology at the time of publication. The book truly sets a standard for what is known and what is not known about raptor population dynamics and population interactions. While it is \"a must\" for any professional raptor biologist, its readability lends it also to being a leading choice to occupy the bookshelf of most falconers and raptor enthusiasts.\n\u00b7 EAGLES, HAWKS AND FALCONS OF THE WORLD\nBrown, L. and D. Amadon. 1989. The Wellfleet Press, Secaucus, NJ. 945pg.\nOriginally printed as a two-volume set in 1968, this single-bound edition was reprinted to make this standard reference more available. It is one of the most, if not the most, cited reference on birds of prey of the world. An excellent resource, especially if your interest in raptors goes beyond the North American continent.\n\u00b7 HAWKS, EAGLES AND FALCONS OF NORTH AMERICA\nJohnsgard, P.A. 1990. . Smithsonian Institution Press, Washington, D.C. 403pg.\nThis is an excellent reference to the biology of North American raptors. It contains some of the most concise, accurate, and detailed descriptions on numerous aspects of raptor biology.\n\u00b7 THE WIND MASTERS\nDunne, P., 1995. 263pg.\nNot a book about falconry, but written by one of the premier bird watchers in North America, this books gives us a glimpse into the inner workings of our raptor's minds.\n\u00b7 HAWKS IN THE HAND (2nd edition)\nCraighead, F. & J. 1997. Lyons and Burford Co., New York, NY. 352pg.\nOriginally published in 1939, this highly readable book spins a web of birds, dogs and people that has entrapped and entertained falconers and falconer \"wanna-be\u2019s\" over the decades since if first was published. It remains entertaining and applicable today.\nRaptor Identification\nThese three books are intended for the identification of birds of prey, mostly in the field. Dunne et al. describes how to tell raptors apart as they soar lazily overhead or from snatched glimpses as they fly away. The first Clark and Wheeler book is your basic Peterson field guide, which obviously is dedicated to diurnal raptors. The second book adds the depth of color to the first.\n\u00b7 HAWKS IN FLIGHT\nDunne, P., D. Sibley, and C. Sutton. 1988. . Houghton-Mifflin, Boston, MA. 254pg.\n\u00b7 GUIDE TO THE HAWKS OF NORTH AMERICA\nClark, W.S. and B.K. Wheeler. 1987. Houghton-Mifflin, Boston, MA. 198pg.\n\u00b7 A PHOTOGRAPHIC GUIDE TO NORTH AMERICAN RAPTORS\nWheeler, B.K., and W. S. Clark. 1996. (2nd edition). Academic Press. 216pg.\n\u00b7 MEDICAL MANAGEMENT OF CAPTIVE BIRDS OF PREY\nRedig, P.T. 1993. (2nd edition). The Raptor Center, St. Paul, MN. 184pg.\nThe essential medical manual for beginners, with a special chapter on the care and maintenance of falconry hawks.\n\u00b7 VETERINARY ASPECTS OF CAPTIVE BIRDS OF PREY\nCooper, J.E. 1978. The Standfast Press, Gloucestershire, U.K. 256+pg.\nThis is an excellent book on raptor diseases and injuries. It is quite technical in nature, but is a good one for the bookshelf.\n\u00b7 RAPTOR BIOMEDICINE\nRedig, P.T., J.E. Cooper, D. Remple, and B. Hunter. 1993. University of Minnesota Press, Minneapolis, MN. 288pg.\nThis is an excellent but highly technical veterinary manual on birds of prey. A bit advanced for beginners, but an excellent reference.\nBook Dealers and Retailers\nEagle Wing Publishing\nApprentice Book, Rabbit Dog Book, Topic Index of NA Falconry\nWilliam C.

You're so honest, caring, helpful and fun to work with. I feel truly blessed to have received so much from you. Thank you , from the bottom of my heart.\"\nChara- Blackhawk\n\"Wow!! I can\u2019t say enough positive things about Robin and the Nanny Connection. She is known in my group of friends as the, \u201cMatchmaker\u201d. She put her heart and soul into finding my family the perfect nanny, not just once, but twice. She listens with an ear as a mother and as an employer. She counsels, comforts and sees to it that the connection is made. We are so blessed to have found the best nannies to take care of my three children while I am at work. Each nanny I have encountered is professional and enthusiastic; due to the care that Robin takes in seeking out the best ones!\"\nSherri- San Ramon\n\"In my experience with \"A Nanny Connection\" I have found them to be very efficient and diligent. They take into consideration the needs of both the nannies as well as those of the families. I have been extremely satisfied with my placements and am very thankful for the relationships I have developed with these families. It is without reservation that I recommend this service to anyone!\"\n\"I just wanted to let you know how pleased I am with the outstanding care and understanding that you bring to your profession. As you remember I had just moved to the east bay area and had no idea what I would run into in my quest for a quality position after my last position as a nanny was for 9 years. I had a great number of concerns as to location, people, expectations and qualifications among others. With your outstanding reputation I was lead to you. I am so please to have been fortunate enough to have found you to guide me through the process. The qualifications required by the state, the local government, and all of the others that made me very nervous about the whole process. The families that you sent me to were of the highest quality and the decision was most difficult. Your caring nature and level of professionalism was the most impressive of all the agencies that I spoke with. Thanks again for being the best in the business!\"\n\"I started working with Robin and A Nanny Connection in 2000. Robin is AWESOME!! She takes the time to listen to my needs as a Nanny and presents me with the families that she knows will be a good match. She doesn't rest until that perfect match has been made. Over the years we have become friends and I've seen that the same care and attention to detail extends to the families she works with as well as the Nannies. Her energy is amazing!\"\u2028(featured in \"Diablo\" magazine and nominated for The International Nanny of the year award twice)\n\"Nanny Connection is a true connection. I first went through the Nanny Connection five years ago. Robin found and connected me with a great, amazing family. Right from the beginning, we knew it was a perfect match for everybody. When the time came that I was no longer needed at the position, I knew the place to go was back to Nanny Connection. I called Robin, and she recognized me right away. She's like a best Friend. She truly listens to everything you say. She does the perfect match with Nanny & Family. Once again she did an amazing job with placing me. Being a Nanny is not just a job to me, it's my career choice, it's what I love to do, and take it very seriously. Nanny Connection is the only agency I'll ever go through, as Robin puts the connection in the Nanny Connection. She's the Best!\"\n\"Robin is without a doubt #1 in the nanny world. I have previously worked with other agencies but once I contacted Robin (5 years ago) I knew I would no longer seek nanny positions from other nanny agencies in the east bay (or anywhere!). She is extremely professional yet unintimidating when I confront her with an issue or concern. She is prompt when returning my phone calls and patiently awaits for me to find the right fit between prospective families and myself (the nanny). I have an immense amount of respect for Robin and would not hesitate to utilize her services to find a nanny for my own children in the future.\"\n\"Robin LeGrand runs one of the most organized, proactive nanny agencies I have ever had the pleasure of working with. As a long time child care specialist, I really appreciate her enthusiasm, feedback, and initiative. She really gets right to work matching up qualified nannies with families. Within two weeks of our first meeting, I was employed with a great family, whom I stayed with for nearly two years, very happily. She keeps her promises, and she is on the ball. I recommend her to all qualified nannies I know when they are seeking employment.\"",

When a patient undergoes \u2018awake craniotomy\u2019, Helen assesses their communication during the operation, informing the neurosurgeons when their intervention is impacting on the patient\u2019s communication as well as supporting the patients during what might otherwise be a terrifying ordeal.\nSadly, for many of these patients their diagnosis is terminal and Helen will provide continuity of care right through to end of life with compassion, empathy and dedication, ensuring that patients are supported emotionally throughout their incredibly difficult journey.\nHelen said: \u201cReceiving this award is very good for the people I care for.\n\u201cI feel privileged to help people and to go on that journey with patients. You see somebody when they are diagnosed, when they go through their surgery, after surgery and then through chemotherapy and radiotherapy \u2013 you know them from the beginning to the end.\u201d\nYou can read about the other nominees here: https://www.nbt.nhs.uk/news-media/latest-news/exceptional-healthcare-awa...\nService Transformation Award: Hospital at Home\nThe Service Transformation Award recognises teams or individuals who have introduced a new process or pathway designed to improve the effectiveness of their service and/or the patient journey.\nDuring winter 2017/18 the Hospital at Home team identified that they could appropriately manage patients who were still acutely unwell within their own home. Within six months the service has gone from being launched to consistently looking after 16 patients within the community.\nThe service comprises a team of specialist nurses who deliver acute healthcare to patients within their own homes. The Hospital at Home service, has enhanced the ability of the Anaesthesia Surgery Critical Care and Renal division to deliver the emergency and elective surgical programme with the concurrent income generation and avoidance of financial penalties and has improved the experience of patients involved.\nThe team said: \u201cWe could not do this if it wasn\u2019t for the team and it\u2019s amazing that we have won.\n\u201cWhat we are doing has real benefits for the trust and also for patient experience \u2013 and that is the most important part of all of it.\u201d\nYou can read about the other shortlisted nominees in the category here: https://www.nbt.nhs.uk/news-media/latest-news/exceptional-healthcare-awa...\nSupporting Southmead Hospital: Emily Holloway, Communications Manager.\nThe Supporting Southmead Hospital Award, which recognise those who have made an outstanding contribution to the trust through fundraising or volunteering.\nOver the past few years Emily has volunteered hundreds of hours of her own time to prepare dances to raise money for Southmead Hospital Charity. It is the energy, sense of community and joy that she has created that she should be recognised for.\nThis year Emily dedicated a huge amount of her time to ensure that Strictly Southmead \u2013 where hospital staff competed in a dance competition - was an amazing event, thoroughly enjoyed by staff, visitors and patients alike, and raised more than \u00a38,000 for the charity appeal. Her patience, encouragement and positivity made the whole experience so enjoyable for all involved.\nEmily said: \u201cI feel so happy and grateful to all the wonderful people who join me in all my crazy projects to enable me to fundraise for the wonderful Southmead Hospital Charity \u2013 I couldn\u2019t do it without everybody else.\n\u201cIt\u2019s amazing to receive the recognition for my dancing and what it can achieve for wellbeing.

Silvia did not know she had been nominated for the award by the Perform coaches who are working with teams across the organisation, so was surprised to hear her name called out.\nShe said: \u201cIt was a complete shock to win this award but I was so proud.\n\u201cWe have made such a lot of changes because of Perform and have really embedded them and everyone has worked so hard. I am really, really proud of what we have achieved.\u201d\nChief Executive Award: Bristol Genetics Laboratory, Severn Pathology Labs.\nThe awards were rounded off with a special award chosen by Chief Executive Andrea Young, and again the recipients did not know they had been put forward for the honour.\nThe Bristol Genetics Laboratory at Southmead Hospital was announced as one of only seven genomics laboratory hubs in the country back in October. This national network of hubs will be rolled out early in 2019 to provide genomic sequencing to help in the diagnosis of seriously ill patients and the award was in recognition of their achievements.\nHead of the Laboratory, Eileen Roberts said: \u201cIt is absolutely fabulous to have genetics and pathology recognised within NBT and to have that acknowledgment from the chief executive.\n\u201cIt is a superb validation of where we have been and where we are going.\u201d\nSevern Pathology Services Director David Gibbs said: \u201cIt\u2019s a good example of a really diverse team coming together to do a really good piece of work in difficult circumstances, on a tight deadline and to come out favourably against huge centres and a positive demonstration of how our service has evolved.\nMaggie Williams, who is the lead for the specialist areas of genomics, added: \u201cWhat we do is often a background support area, so to be up there with the main areas of the trust with this award is a wonderful achievement recognising the real support we provide for services.\u201d\nSee the rest of the shortlist here: https://www.nbt.nhs.uk/news-media/latest-news/heartfelt-thank-you-chief-...\nUnsung Hero: Sarah Lapham, Major Trauma Administrator.\nThis award recognises an individual who has gone the extra mile and has shown effort and commitment to the job over and above what is expected.\nAn indispensable and greatly-loved \u201cmum\u201d of the Major Trauma Network, Sarah is always there to support colleagues and she regularly runs team BBQs, fun days and evenings out.\nShe continues to give 100 per cent effort and work longer hours to ensure that every shift is filled and the training programme runs to a high standard.

        "raw_content": "North Carolina Department of State Treasurer \\ Inside The Department \\ News Room \\ News Releases \\ Treasurer Folwell and Retirement Boards Refuse to \"Kick the Can Down the Road\"\nTreasurer Folwell and Retirement Boards Refuse to \"Kick the Can Down the Road\"\nPension Boards vote to lower investment return assumption to 7.0 percent\n(Raleigh, N.C.) \u2013 North Carolina State Treasurer Dale R. Folwell, CPA, announced today that the investment return assumption for the North Carolina Retirement Systems (the Fund) will be lowered from 7.20 percent to 7.00 percent beginning with the December 31, 2017, valuations. First proposed 20 years ago, the move was unanimously approved by the Teachers' and State Employees' Retirement System (TSERS) and Local Government Employees' Retirement System (LGERS) Boards of Trustees (Boards) at their April 26, 2018, meeting.\n\u201cThe North Carolina pension fund is one of the top five best funded in the country,\" said Treasurer Folwell. \u201cHowever, we need to make realistic assumptions regarding our ability to achieve expected returns in the future. We owe it to the General Assembly, taxpayers, public employees and future generations to be transparent and realistic about the true valuation of the pension plans. Lowering this assumption will provide the best opportunity to meet the state's long-term obligations as well as maintain its AAA bond rating. I want to thank the Boards for making this decision.\"\nThe stability of the Fund relies on maintaining both adequate employer and employee contributions and achieving long-term investment goals. However, on average the Fund has not earned its assumed rate of return for the past 20 years. According to the 2016 Asset Allocation Study conducted by the Investment Management Division, the previous 7.25 percent (pre-2017) and 7.20 percent (adopted in 2017) investment return assumptions are somewhat greater than the median 20-year expected return, and close to (but greater than) the median 30-year expected return. According to the same study, the new assumption of 7.0 percent has a slightly greater than 50 percent probability of being achieved over the next 30 years.\nThe Boards' action comes as many states are lowering their expected assumed rate of return to better reflect realistic future investment gains. North Carolina's reduction to 7.00 percent will occur immediately with respect to the actuarial valuations as of December 31, 2017. However, the impact of the change on actuarially recommended employer contribution rates will be phased in over a three-year period. It is expected that some of these employer contribution rate increases would have occurred in any event under stabilization policies (ECRSPs) already adopted by the Boards in 2016.\nThe change will increase plan obligations by two to three percent (both funding and financial reporting) and will also generally translate into a reduction in the funded status of the affected systems by two to three percentage points.\nContributions to pension plans have three sources of funds: contributions made by employees, contributions made by employers (state agencies, school systems and local governments) and investment gains. When a retirement system lowers its expected investment gains, additional funding for the pension system must come from other sources like the General Assembly and local governments in the form of employer contributions.\nFolwell praised the North Carolina League of Municipalities, North Carolina Association of County Commissioners, the Governor and the General Assembly for their support of the change. \u201cWithout their backing, we could not have made this change,\" said Folwell. \u201cThey should be given credit for realizing that we have to be more realistic about investment gains in order for the pension plan to remain solvent.\"\nThe North Carolina Retirement Systems, the formal name for the Fund, is the 9th largest public pension fund in the country and is currently valued at almost $100 billion. It provides retirement benefits and savings for more than 950,000 North Carolinians, including teachers, state employees, local governments, firefighters, police officers and other public workers.",

And although B2B companies may assume that social media will benefit them (based on the plethora of articles and case studies about successful social media campaigns from B2C companies like GoPro and RedBull), it doesn\u2019t make sense to do something just because \u201ceveryone else is doing it.\u201d\nIn this video, Henry and Lance discuss whether social media holds value for B2B companies, or if the immense amount of time and effort that goes into social media marketing would be better spent somewhere else.

        "raw_content": "The Woman She Was author Rosa Jordan reads from new novel at the Nelson Public Library on October 18.\nFind Cuba through the back door in Nelson\nFor a writer, fiction is a wonderful way to find your way into history or culture.\nFor a writer, fiction is a wonderful way to find your way into history or culture. For a reader, it\u2019s a wonderful way to learn about history, without really trying, and offers the human side to things \u2014 something that\u2019s not always there in the history books.\nI once quipped that everything I know about the big wide world comes from fiction. While that may not be entirely true, it\u2019s a fact that novels have left me with impressions about countries I have never seen and eras I have never lived, a textural take I don\u2019t think I\u2019d get any other way beyond actually being there.\nRossland author Rosa Jordan used fiction to give a textural take on Cuba, its complicated leader Fidel Castro, and Castro\u2019s \u201csignificant other\u201d Celia Sanchez.\nJordan, a Cubaphile who has previously written nonfiction books about the country, was fascinated by Sanchez, but challenged by the lack of historical information about this enigmatic woman. So she explored the subject through the imagination of a present-day protagonist, a pediatrician who shares Jordan\u2019s fascination. The result is her 2012 novel The Woman She Was.\nJordan reads from her new novel next Thursday, October 18 at 7:30 p.m. at the Library.\nI haven\u2019t been to Cuba, although it\u2019s near the top of my rather long list. I loved Our Man in Havana by Graham Greene and The Motorcycle Diaries by Ernesto Guevara, and I could watch Buena Vista Social Club (legendary Cuban musicians, along with American Ry Cooder) on DVD a hundred times and never tire of it.\nSome fiction titles in our collection that offer that textural take on Cuba include Thine is the Kingdom by Abilio Estevez, Loving Ch\u00e9 by Ana Menendez, and several titles by Oscar Hijuelos including Emperor of the Splendid Season and The Fourteen Sisters of Emilio Montez O\u2019Brien, all hard copies you can check out. Among the e-books available for download is Roland Merulio\u2019s Fidel\u2019s Last Days, perhaps a good companion book to Jordan\u2019s.\nNon-Cuban writers write Cubaphilic novels, too: Ernest Hemingway wrote the classic tale of a Cuban fisherman and a marlin in The Old Man and the Sea while living in Cuba. Although it initially garnered negative reviews, it won the Nobel Prize for Literature and has been a part of part of high school curricula for decades.\nContemporary authors setting novels in Cuba include Martin Cruz Smith (Havana Bay) and David Hagberg (Castro\u2019s Daughter).\nOf course, we have lots of great nonfiction titles about Cuba, from Isadora Tatlin\u2019s biography The Cuba Diaries: an American Housewife in Havana to Fidel Castro\u2019s own biography, appropriately titled My Life. In DVD we have Fidel Castro: el Comandante, a great visual history in A&E biography series.\nFrom Burma to Nelson\nSelkirk College students clean-up shoreline",

Photo Credit: Barry Sloan\nBy DENISE M. BONILLA denise.bonilla@newsday.com @denisebonilla Updated May 24, 2015 5:25 PM\nIt may have a playground, but Lt. Edward Weckerle Memorial Park in Lindenhurst Village is far from fun for a group of residents who are pushing to have the park cleaned up and made handicapped-accessible.\nBroken beer bottles, discarded syringes, splintered benches and scattered trash are some of the problems residents said they have encountered while at the park with their children.\n\"There's constant vandalism, they spit, it's disgusting,\" Kristin Fusaro, 32, said of the teenagers who hang out at the park at night.\nFusaro has started a petition drive and village officials have promised to take action.\nThe park, often referred to as \"Triangle Park,\" is a parcel of land with swings, a playground and benches at the intersection of four streets. The park's surface is largely sand, Fusaro said, making it difficult for the elderly and those with disabilities to visit.\nNeighbor Natalie Negron, 37, has a son Lucas, 7, who uses a wheelchair. When he was smaller, Negron said, she could put him in the bucket seats of the swings. Now he is too big for the swings and with no other equipment for him to use, and with the difficulty of moving the wheelchair on the sand, they have stopped coming to the park.\n\"We used to come here all the time.\" Now, she said, \"it's not functional for us.\"\nFusaro hopes her online petition drive will persuade the village to update and clean up the park. The petition has more than 600 signatures, including from a person in Norway with cousins in Lindenhurst.\n\"Whether they've lived here for 35 years or for a few months, they really love the community and they want to see it do well,\" she said. \"But we can't do it without the village doing their share.\"\nMayor Thomas Brennan said the village put a new sign in the park last year and this spring did a cleanup.\n\"I won't say it's a forgotten park, because we don't forget it,\" Brennan said. \"We clean it up every year. Unfortunately kids hang out there.\"\nBrennan has asked the state for $75,000 in funding for village parks. If the village gets it, he said, most of the money would go toward Weckerle Park. The village would \"revitalize the whole park,\" he said, removing the sand and adding rubber matting as well as new equipment.\nHowever, it's not clear how much the village will be able to get done even if it is approved for the whole amount. Brennan said rubber matting at another village park -- albeit a much bigger one -- cost $50,000 alone.\nWeckerle Park was dedicated in 1958 to the grandfather of current village trustee Maryann Weckerle's husband, Thomas. Edward Weckerle was a World War I veteran who also served as captain in the fire department and as a lieutenant in the village's now defunct police force. Some of Weckerle's relatives have signed the petition, Fusaro said.\nMaryann Weckerle agreed the park \"might have fallen a little bit through the cracks\" and needs to be updated.\n\"It really has been a big part of many people's lives for many years and we perhaps were not quite aware of that,\" she said. \"That the focus is coming back to it and it's being brought to our attention is definitely appreciated. We'll do our best to follow through.\"",

He was given a suspended sentence of two years\u2019 jail in 2013.\nMr Boillot, a former banknote executive, pleaded guilty this week in the Victorian Supreme Court to conspiring to offer a bribe to foreign officials in Malaysia. He will be sentenced on December 6.\nAs a result, the record fines against the RBA subsidiaries, as well as the individual sentences to executives, can now be revealed.\nSecurency makes the plastic base for both Australian and foreign banknotes. It was later sold by the RBA and is now known as CCL Secure.\nIt pleaded guilty to offering bribes to officials at the note-issuing authorities in Indonesia, Malaysia, and Vietnam.\nNPA produces Australia\u2019s banknotes and passports, and its foreign customers include the central banks of New Zealand, Singapore, Mexico, Chile and Romania.\nIt pleaded guilty to attempting to bribe officials in Indonesia, Malaysia and Nepal.\nThe offences took place between 1999 and 2004.\nA series of prosecutions linked to the scandal have been kept secret for the past seven years thanks to long-running suppression orders, which have today been lifted.\nIn a statement, the RBA said the guilty pleas reflected that the boards of the companies accepted responsibility, showed remorse and took into account the public interest in avoiding a lengthy, costly court battle.\n\u201cThe Reserve Bank strongly condemns corrupt and unethical behaviour,\u201d RBA governor Philip Lowe said in the statement.\n\u201cThe RBA has been unable to talk about this matter publicly until today, although the guilty pleas were entered in 2011.\n\u201cThe RBA accepts there were shortcomings in its oversight of these companies, and changes to controls and governance have been made to ensure that a situation like this cannot happen again.\u201d\nThe RBA said the prosecution had accepted that the boards of the two companies had no knowledge or involvement in the corruption.\nThe Indonesian conspiracy\nThe Victorian Supreme Court heard Securency funnelled bribes worth about $US3 million to Indonesian officials, to secure or maintain its contract with the Indonesian central bank.\nThe mid-1999 contract with the Bank of Indonesia to supply materials for printing polymer banknotes was worth more than $13 million.\nBut there was a second part to the conspiracy \u2014 under the contract with the Bank of Indonesia, the bank was entitled to claim penalty payments if the banknotes were not printed on time.\nNote Printing Australia repeatedly failed to meet the deadlines set for printing 500 million 100,000 Indonesian Rupiah notes.\nWhen the penalty payments were made, only some of the money went to the central bank.\nThe rest was paid \u201cunofficially\u201d to the bank\u2019s officials.\nThe case against Securency and Note Printing Australia was the first prosecution brought under foreign bribery laws introduced in 1999.\nIn sentencing, Justice Elizabeth Hollingworth said the international conspiracy lasted for a substantial period of time.\n\u201cThe conduct was deliberate, sophisticated, carefully orchestrated and concealed,\u201d she said.\nThe prosecution also argued the bribery conspiracy could affect Australia\u2019s capacity to engage in foreign trade.\nJustice Hollingworth found the actions of Securency and NPA Ltd \u201c\u2026 had the capacity to harm the reputation of the Reserve Bank itself, and \u2026 broader Australian interests\u201d.\nBoth companies have accepted that the systems and procedures they had in place at the time of the offending were inadequate to prevent or detect the offending conduct of their senior executives.\nAuthor: Liz Hobday",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Blog \u00bb Why does a deviated septum actually cause obstruction in BOTH sides?\nBriefly, the nasal passages are in charge of delivering air from the tip of the nose to the back of the throat and then into the lungs. Typically, the air passes through each nostril into the nasal cavity and then into the throat. Various conditions can limit the amount of airflow through the nasal passages and result in obstruction issues. One of the more common reasons for nasal obstruction is a deviated nasal septum.\nThe nasal septum is a bony and cartilaginous structure in the midline of the nose. This has a membrane covering to keep it moist. On occasion, either the bone or the cartilage or both can be deviated to one side, and therefore result in obstruction of the nasal passages.\nConventional wisdom would say that if the septum is deviated to a particular side, the left or the right, the other sides should be even open wider and allow for more passage of air to compensate for the blocked side. However, this is actually not correct in practice.\nIn order to better understand the function of the septum, think of it as lane marker in a two lane highway. As seen in the diagram below, if the lane markers are straight, and each lane has equal capacity, the flow is unobstructed and smooth.\nAs seen in the diagram below, if the lane marker is not straight, it will cause a great deal of obstruction on the narrow side, and only a small amount of flow can go through the obstruction. However, on the opposite side, the sudden width can actually result in turbulence of flow, which in simple terms can be thought of as the air actually getting lost in the nose. Due to the sudden widening of the passage in the area of the deviation of the septum, the air that goes into nasal passages can whirl around as opposed to go directly in the back. This will then result in slowing of the flow even on the side that is thought to be wider.\nTherefore, deviation of the nasal septum can actually result in obstructive issues both on the narrower side as well as on the wider side. Deviation of the septum is a bony and cartilaginous problem, and will not respond to any type of medical therapy. Septoplasty is the only remedy for correcting a deviation of the septum.\nTagged with: deviated nasal septum, deviated septum, ear nose throat, ENT, Isaac Namdar, Isaac Namdar MD, nasal blockage, nasal obstruction, New York, new york city, obstruction, Otolaryngology, Otorhinolaryngology, septoplasty, septum, sinus congestion, sinusitis",

He has one brother, A. F. Crick, who is a doctor in New Zealand.\nCrick was educated at Northampton Grammar School and Mill Hill School, London. He studied physics at University College, London, obtained a B.Sc. in 1937, and started research for a Ph.D. under Prof E. N. da C. Andrade, but this was interrupted by the outbreak of war in 1939. During the war he worked as a scientist for the British Admiralty, mainly in connection with magnetic and acoustic mines. He left the Admiralty in 1947 to study biology.\nSupported by a studentship from the Medical Research Council and with some financial help from his family, Crick went to Cambridge and worked at the Strangeways Research Laboratory. In 1949 he joined the Medical Research Council Unit headed by M. F. Perutz of which he has been a member ever since. This Unit was for many years housed in the Cavendish Laboratory Cambridge, but in 1962 moved into a large new building \u2013 the Medical Research Council Laboratory of Molecular Biology \u2013 on the New Hospital site. He became a research student for the second time in 1950, being accepted as a member of Caius College, Cambridge, and obtained a Ph.D. in 1954 on a thesis entitled \u00abX-ray diffraction: polypeptides and proteins\u00bb.\nDuring the academic year 1953-1954 Crick was on leave of absence at the Protein Structure Project of the Brooklyn Polytechnic in Brooklyn, New York. He has also lectured at Harvard, as a Visiting Professor, on two occasions, and has visited other laboratories in the States for short periods.\nIn 1947 Crick knew no biology and practically no organic chemistry or crystallography, so that much of the next few years was spent in learning the elements of these subjects. During this period, together with W. Cochran and V. Vand he worked out the general theory of X-ray diffraction by a helix, and at the same time as L. Pauling and R. B. Corey, suggested that the alpha-keratin pattern was due to alpha-helices coiled round each other.\nA critical influence in Crick\u2019s career was his friendship, beginning in 1951, with J. D. Watson, then a young man of 23, leading in 1953 to the proposal of the double-helical structure for DNA and the replication scheme. Crick and Watson subsequently suggested a general theory for the structure of small viruses.\nCrick in collaboration with A. Rich has proposed structures for polyglycine II and collagen and (with A. Rich, D. R. Davies, and J. D.Watson) a structure for polyadenylic acid.\nIn recent years Crick, in collaboration with S. Brenner, has concentrated more on biochemistry and genetics leading to ideas about protein synthesis (the \u00abadaptor hypothesis\u00bb), and the genetic code, and in particular to work on acridine-type mutants.\nCrick was made an F.R.S. in 1959. He was awarded the Prix Charles Leopold Meyer of the French Academy of Sciences in 1961, and the Award of Merit of the Gairdner Foundation in 1962. Together with J. D. Watson he was a Warren Triennial Prize Lecturer in 1959 and received a Research Corporation Award in 1962. With J. D. Watson and M. H. F. Wilkins he was presented with a Lasker Foundation Award in 1960. In 1962 he was elected a Foreign Honorary Member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, and a Fellow of University College, London. He was a Fellow of Churchill College, Cambridge, in 1960-1961, and is now a non-resident Fellow of the Salk Institute for Biological Studies, San Diego, California.\nIn 1940 Crick married Ruth Doreen Dodd. Their son, Michael F. C. Crick is a scientist. They were divorced in 1947. In 1949 Crick married Odile Speed. They have two daughters, Gabrielle A. Crick and Jacqueline M. T. Crick. The family lives in a house appropriately called \u00abThe Golden Helix\u00bb, in which Crick likes to find his recreation in conversation with his friends.\nCrick, F.H.C., What Mad Pursuit: A Personal View of Science.

The books help children to understand better the themes of traffic that are discussed in class with the teacher and to learn the rules of the road by working on assignments involving various traffic scenarios. The book explains the proper way to behave on the road and in public transportation, provides boating safety instructions and teaches the basic road signs.

(Donna Polizzi photo)\nBy Donna Polizzi | April 30, 2016 | 11:30 a.m.\nYou may not know that right here in Santa Barbara County is a beautiful, out-of-the-way park with a breathtaking, seasonal waterfall.\nJust a few miles south of Buellton, Nojoqui Falls flows over a steep, sandstone wall, covered in deep green moss and verdant ferns. If you go soon or after a rain, you\u2019ll see this spectacular waterfall cascading more than 100 feet to a bubbling stream.\nThis is truly a hidden gem that must be explored. I\u2019ve been to Nojoqui Falls County Park several times, and the beauty of this area hasn\u2019t disappointed and it has never been crowded. It is a secluded, rarely visited, dog-friendly park.\nFrom the trailhead to the waterfall is only 0.6 miles round trip and takes a half-hour, if you\u2019re only stopping for a quick look. If you\u2019re a nature lover like me, you may not want to leave for hours.\nThe falls are right off Highway 101, roughly 1\u00bd miles east of the freeway. If you\u2019re taking Highway 101 north from the South Coast, just past the Gaviota Tunnel you\u2019ll see a sign saying Nojoqui County Park, where you will turn right onto Old Coast Highway at the top of the pass. Turn left on Alisal Road and you\u2019ll run into the park.\nThis magnificent waterfall is about five miles south of Buellton and seven miles southwest of Solvang. If you\u2019re coming from the Santa Ynez Valley, the easiest route is Alisal Road from Solvang, right to the trailhead at the Nojoqui Falls Park parking lot.\nI recommend starting in Solvang, but I have a weakness for butter cookies and like to visit one of the many bakeries. Plan to stop and take photos along the way. It\u2019s also a treat if you plan ahead and book a relaxing post-hike massage at the day spa at Alisal Guest Ranch & Resort, which you\u2019ll pass.\nThere are interesting sights around every curve of the bucolic, winding Alisal Road. The area is so green right now that it almost looks unreal. Majestic oak trees, laden with gigantic clusters of mistletoe and sphagnum moss, dot the scenic landscape around every bend.\nI love watching cows grazing on the tall grass and seeing the overhead canopy of leaves that curve over the road with beams of sunlight shining through.\nAt the end of the road is a convenient parking area at the entrance of the trail. It felt like an enchanted forest.\nNojoqui, named for an ancient Chumash village that was once nearby, has several pronunciations, but most commonly is pronounced \u201cNaw-HO-wee.\u201d\nThe hike is an easy one that everyone, young and old, can enjoy. The trail is a gentle incline colored by eye-popping shades of green. I loved the sound of the bubbling creek and the rich Hershey\u2019s chocolate-colored dirt with ferns and wildflowers glistening in the sunlight. After walking for a few minutes, you\u2019ll see a quaint little bridge and two sets of interesting stone staircases.\nThere are also a few benches if you simply want to sit and listen to the peaceful sounds of the water flowing. Or you could enjoy an impromptu, romantic picnic, or read a good book amid the sounds of nature surrounding you.\nAfter you\u2019ve crossed three bridges, you\u2019ll arrive at a sign reading \u201cFalling Rocks. Don\u2019t Go Beyond This Point.\u201d Of course, I didn\u2019t see it until I was leaving.\nApparently, I wasn\u2019t the only one because there was a trail, no doubt from people who have walked outside the retaining fence to get a closer look at the falls.\nAs in life, some seasons are more colorful and in others our riches don\u2019t always flow. So get out there and enjoy it while you can! It will be a delight to your senses.\nThe hike left me feeling rejuvenated and grateful that we have such variety and so many beautiful places to wine, dine and explore of the Central Coast!\n\u2014 Donna Polizzi is a regional travel expert and founder of Keys to the Coast, a free Central Coast travel resource providing honest recommendations on the best places that locals want to go.

        "raw_content": "The Book of Letting Go\nRecently writing has been a little... frustrating. I have not yet turned to drink or drugs (unless you count coffee and biscuits) but the experience has left me weary and not a little sluggish; that is to say, I have felt like a slow-moving creature trying to get to the Other Side whilst in constant danger of being squashed. Why? It's simple and it's complicated.\nI have shelved my teen novel.\nThere it is. But one single sentence cannot express a whole world of feelings behind that decision. This particular story has been on the go with the excellent, Kathyrn Robinson at Cornerstones for nearly two years. The other week, I sent it off for what I hoped was the last time. When Kathyrn's e-mail came back, it did not begin with the hoped for line,\n'Yes! That's it - you've nailed it!'\nInstead it was muted and advised still more work was needed. My insides sank (insides really do that) and in truth, I could hardly bare to look at what she said. I spoke to Kathryn and we talked it through. There was something missing, a connection that had not been made, an emotional spine. Still. And that was when I made the decision to stop. It was doing me no good and the story no good.\nIt was a small bereavement but it was my bereavement and keenly felt.\nSo, I retreated for a while and brooded on my lost story. All that pointless time and energy. All that wasted love and craft. I wanted to cling on to it. Surely it was good enough? I've read stuff and thought I'd written better. But I actually knew that Kathryn was right, it may well have been good enough but it wasn't brilliant. She advised patience, told me that (eventually) I'd feel good about being free of this story. I said yes but didn't really believe that I would feel anything as postive as good or even resigned to the fact. It felt like I was the only one to whom this had happened. Ever. Woe is me. I am undone.\nThen I went on a real retreat with the SCBWI. I'd booked it ages ago, the idea being that I should work, work, work on my...well, my work. It didn't quite go to plan since I did No Work Whatsoever.\nWith Christina Vinall doing no work whatsoever\nInstead I connected again, not just to my writing but also to other writers and the wider writing world. How? Quite simply by talking and listening to other people's stories. And here was my always-knew-but-needed-to-hear-moment.\nWhat happened to me happens to other people as well!\nThat's not to say that I revel in the bad things that happen to others but it is to say that I gained perspective. Then more came, the understanding that letting go of something is not to lose it. Nothing is lost and nothing is wasted. How can something that was so enjoyable, so part of me, ever be a waste anyway? A story is always there and will probably be told later and differently using some of what happened, some of the same characters even and it will be so much better in the telling. I heard all this and I believed it and then came the lightening of feeling, the freedom of finally parting. Letting go.\nOnly connecting with Anita Loughrey and Benjamin Scott\nI have poured salt on my inner slug (no picture, you may be eating). My undying thanks go to Kathryn who knew I'd find that it was all good. I can write anything I want to and it will be better than ever.\nI have begun something new and it's still a pleasure.Yay.\nLabels: Addy Farmer\nTabitha Suzuma 17 May 2012 at 06:31\nI so relate to this, having had to 'let go' of two YA novels (unfinished and unread) over the last couple of years because I just felt they weren't working. It had never happened to me before and really knocked the wind out of me and my confidence was rock bottom. I even considered giving up my writing career altogether but the fact that I'd be letting down a lot of people (not to mention have to pay back my advance!) just about kept me hanging on. After a long period of no writing/planning at all, I've finally started again. So far it's going really well and although the story and characters are completely different to the ones in the books I abandoned (I actually have a file on my computer entitled 'Abandoned Books'), I've found that I've been able to rejig a few scenes here and there. So I agree, nothing is really wasted. :-)\nThanks, Tabitha. It is denting isn't it? I'm so glad your confidence is back and I'm constantly amazed at how resiliant children's writers are.\nVanessa Harbour 17 May 2012 at 06:38\nI think this is something we can all understand. Sometimes it is so hard to let go of something you have worked on for years. That awful realisation that it is still not working. But no writing is wasted, it is all part of you becoming a writer. I have several tucked away that who knows may come out again if I decide there are things I can add to them. I am so pleased the retreat did so much good and that you have started something new. I am sure it will flourish. Good luck with it.\nThanks, Ness. I agree. Living a creative life has to mean that everything you do goes into making something that will eventually work. Not just the writing but being with like-minded people and engaging in like-minded stuff (like this blog).\nRuth F 17 May 2012 at 07:29\nGreat post Addy. I also have an abandoned books file. Some because they weren't working and some because somehow they weren't doing it for me and I couldn't get into the writing zone with them. It took a lot of starting over before I finally found the one that worked. Now it's finished I need to start all over again! So glad you have found some inspiration and are enjoying your writing again. Very good luck with it and keep the faith! X\nThanks, Ruth and very best writing vibes to you.\nmalrostan 17 May 2012 at 07:33\nThis is a brave and inspiring post, Addy and it really resonates with me as I also recently 'let go' of a book I'd been working on - although about halfway through the process rather than the 'end'. It also took me a while to accept that the work and writing had not been 'wasted'. Good luck as you move on with the new and the better than ever!\nThankyou! And all best to you and your writing!\nI know!!!!!!!!! Massive massive hug - and remember, however trite it sounds, we are learning ALL the time - it'll make us better story tellers in the end x\nLovely to meet you at the weekend Addy\nFor me it's not so much letting go of the book because like everyone says nothing is ever wasted, but all the hope i've invested in it.\nStarting something new is a great tonic.\nIt was lovely to meet you too! Yes, Jan. You're right about the 'hope' thing. If I'm honest, I'd say, a lot of the disappointment was because of not going forward to get an agent. But by gum, I feel alright about it cos I've taken pressure off myself. I don't even know if that makes sense!\nOh Addy it's a tough business. We may let go of the books that we actually finish but then discover are not the right books - but only temporarily. And all that craft and time is not a waste because you've emerged a better writer for it. In fact, a good enough writer to know that this is not the one. For now. These books are not abandoned ... they're just waiting for their moment to shine.\nTeri Terry 17 May 2012 at 09:20\nBeen there, done that, feel your pain. And.... I also feel your excitement! There are blank pages and unclaimed stories with your name on them, Addy - I know it sounds corny but each new beginning Is an adventure.\nThanks, Teri. I like corny cos it's true.\nMaureen Lynas 17 May 2012 at 09:45\nOh, Addy, I had that letter from Kathryn too! HUGS! Mine also came after two years of working on The Jawbreaker. Half of one drawer in my filing cabinet is taken up by the drafts of that story. And I had the same problem, no emotional spine. I think I was very much into writing about events and not about the person they were happening to. It is incredibly hard to let go but when you see your next book taking shape you will really appreciate the learning curve you've gone through with Kathryn and your book. So glad you have your mojo back. More hugs :)\nHugs back! Thanks!\nI feel for you Addy! I too have a secret stash of novels in a bottom drawer, ideas that I loved and lost. In the words of the great Arnie: \"You'll be back!\"\nHa! Thanks, Princess.\nAs has been pointed out before, writers have relationships with their stories that quite often seem as intense as any they might have with a human being. Break-ups are tough whether they are with real or imagined characters. Perhaps the retreat allowed you to give yourself permission to grieve and move on. I wish you well with your new novel.\nI wonder if Jo Wyton has the guts to quote the three stages of writing a novel on this blog. Will it be too spicy? Jo?\nI need to know what this is!\nJo Franklin 17 May 2012 at 13:33\nCandy, the three stages weren't the author's experience of writing the novel. It was the escalating story arc - Oh no! Oh Something else! Oh something even worse!\nAlthough frankly I think the experience of writing the book is the same. Sadly I've never experienced the bit after the major climax - the new status quo. I guess that peace and harmony comes to the author once they are published!\nOkay, Jo Wyton has ungraciously gone on holiday so I will dare to quote it (it was on her Facebook status) ... It was someones's comment after hearing the above quoted escalating story arc at last week's SCBWI retreat. Here's the modified quote:\n\"There are three stages to writing a novel - Oh God, Oh shit and Oh f**k!\"\n... I seem to be perpetually in the third stage.\nAs someone who worries at a book like a dog with a squeaky toy, I can really empathise with this. How do you decide to let go of a book? Is it too soon? Will the next draft be the clincher? Or is every word just taking you farther and farther away from the idea you originally started with? Well done for making a choice and good luck.\nGood point, Mr Cross. When is it too soon? You don't know until you've really had a go at it.\nI think, I tried every which way, Nick and every time I did another draft, the writing got better. I suspect that had I tried to do another this time, the writing might have suffered as well.\nWhat a powerful post, Addy, and thank you so much for sharing. I remember when you first sent your ms to Kathryn, and I know how much time you've spent working on it and I know how very hard it will have been to let go. Am sending you huge hugs, but am also cheering that you've begun something new and that you're coming at the whole experience with a cup half full approach. You can do this thing and you will. More (((Hugs))) xxx\nNicky, thanks and hugs across the water to you!\nDon't worry, it hasn't really gone. Like the slug, it will be back. One day it will fall of the high shelf and hit you with inspiration, ignite on the back burner and demand attention, leap out of the drawer and knock the muse over. OK, maybe slugs don't do all those things, but your YA novel isn't dead yet. I've got several that are just lying there like vampires awaiting to be reawoken (now there's an idea for a book, oh has someone done that already?)\nI have a vision of a vampire slug called Arnie...\nthanks, Jackie. Great to see you at the Retreat.\nK.M.Lockwood 17 May 2012 at 12:40\nI so appreciate you posting this, Addy. I have a Cemetery of Dead Books - but every grave has the memory of something precious in it - and they have all made me the writer I am now. Like a rose springing from a tomb, death brings new life. Your new work will be bursting with it!\n(Can you tell I'm writing a ghost story at the moment?)\nI couldn't possibly tell, Philippa. I thought you were working on pirates...\nMara Bergman 17 May 2012 at 12:56\nI agree with you, Addy - nothing is ever wasted. Great good luck with all your future writing!\nThanks, Mara! And all best for yours!\nYou are most definitely not alone!\nMaybe we should all awaken the graveyard of abandoned books. The characters might be two dimensional or have no emotions. The stories they tell may be uninspired or exactly like something already on the the shelves of Waterstones. That graveyard is heaving with past loss and love. And might be quite a sorry place.\nOn the other hand the incubator of books-not-yet-written is a wonderful place. It's full of endless opportunity and excitement. New genre can be born. New worlds created. Characters so complex, we're going to have to strip them down to understand them. It's vibrant and full on. There's enough in there for us all to have some of the action.\nWell done, Addy, for letting go. Here's to the future and a world of possibility.\nI spend all my time cannibalizing the books that never made it. Is that cruel?\nYay! Here's to the future and cannibalism! Yum, yum.\nJo Wyton 18 May 2012 at 06:22\nI'm back - and now Candy's stolen my chance to swear on the blog!\nMy record is 4 years working on something which is now in a drawer and God help me, it will never see the light of day again. Now I know that it was a practise novel - and if I hadn't spent 4 years working on it, I'd never have been able to take the training wheels off on the next one. And I do find that bits and pieces of it unwittingly sneak into new things, the cheeky mites.\nI also felt a HUGE sense of relief when I could finally put it away and know that I wouldn't be going back to it - I hadn't realised what a weight it'd become!\nSo here's to knowing your weak spots and working your butt off to get past them, and having fun with a new story at the same time.\nThanks, Jo. Consider my butt working furiously as I type.\nA brave and important post. These things do (or will) happen to most writers, and it's easy to feel isolated when struggling with a manuscript or putting something away for good. Glad you could connect with friends and fellow writers--good luck with your next book. I've also worked with Cornerstones and know how much you've learned from them!\nSomebody Marcus Sedgewick quoted on the retreat was, Ernest Hemingway.\n'You just sit at the typewriter and bleed.'\nJenny Alexander 18 May 2012 at 08:30\nHi Addy - it's a horrible moment for any author having to put a beloved book on one side and say, 'Enough,' but I think it's like Edison and his lightbulbs - every one that doesn't work is a step towards finding one that does. And as you say, nothing is wasted, ever.All that love and learning, and possibly also that loss, helps our development as writers. Your post clearly resonates with lots of us.\nI love the idea of the lightbulbs - as long as it's not one of those fiddly little Christmas tree lightbulbs which take forever to find!\nSheena Wilkinson 18 May 2012 at 10:11\nWhat a brave post which has clearly connected with many others. I had to let TWO novels go between Taking Flight and Grounded, for similar reasons, not to mention the one before TF... I do believe we can learn from them all if we let ourselves. Good luck with the next one!\nThanks, Sheena! Best of to you!\nClaire Merle 18 May 2012 at 10:37\nHey Addy,\nReally interesting post! I must admit my immediate reaction is a little different to most here -- Emotional connection to a character and a book varies so much from person to person, that I wouldn't depend on one outside opinion in terms of whether you've nailed it or not. Of course, as writers we hope and strive to improve our craft and our power to tell a story with each book, whether the books are published or not. Getting over the pressure you feel from yourself to succeed & returning to a love of what you're doing is invaluable. So yes, I definitely agree, there's a certain amount of letting go involved. And you have to listen to yourself when you know it's time to stop working on something. But should you abandon the book? I'm not sure. I would send out first chapters to agents. In many ways, you'll be at an advantage because you don't have any burning expectations. I have several author friends who were about to throw in the towel on a book, only to have it become a huge success.\nThanks, Claire. You make a good point but I think it really depends on the person you've been working with and that history with them. For this particular story, I know that I'd have to look at it all over again before sending it out and I really would have to glue the emotional disconnect I know is there. One big thing I know now is that I really should take note of any teeny doubts. I have just been shoving them in a cupboard marked, 'it'll be fine' and it's not fine. Candy blogged about doing her second novel and being proud of it. UNtil everything comes together and I beam when I think about it, I'm not sure, I'd want to send it out. And that won't happen just now.\nYes Addy, I understand. If it's a point that really resonates with you, and that deep down you know you've been pushing it aside, then I totally see what you mean. On to the next one!\nSue Hyams 18 May 2012 at 15:35\nAddy, my heart goes out to you. I have done this very this recently. Having worked on my apothecary story for over a year with Lovely Agent and a good couple of years before that, I have recently ditched it. I thought I'd got it right but I hadn't. I was devastated at the time but looking back, it was the right thing to do. Be proud of all the work you did. You'll have learned something from it that's for sure and you'll be a better writer for it. Good luck with the shiny new story!\nAh, Sue - I remember you talking about this in a cafe on the South Bank! Thanks and on, on!\nWow, Addy, I admire your courage! And sympathise, too: it's so hard to let go of something that holds a little bit of your soul. Best wishes for the new piece.\nthanks, Linda! All best to you.\nHi Addy, I somehow missed this post. It's a brave post and one that's so useful for so many people. It's part of the reason why I don't want to try writing a children's novel. I've had to let go of lots of my picture books (some that I'd slaved over for months) but it's a much much quicker process and it's less gutting to decide to move on. I know you've learned so much over these last years and what you need back most is your confidence and enthusiasm and you know that you've going to make it with another book as you've made it with books in the past. Good luck with all that you write -for all ages.\nJeannie 21 May 2012 at 19:38\nHi Addy\nWhat a brilliant and honest post, and one that resonates with so many people.\nI also have a drawer full of let-go novels. The saddest letting go was when I was fourteen. I decided to do some extreme editing and threw my novel away in the bin by the bus-stop, because it was a Sunday and I knew I would be able to go and get it back. But when I ran out to save my poor novel (over 300 pages long), the bin had been emptied!\nI'm glad you had such a good time on the retreat, and all the best with your new book.\nthanks, Jeannie. Oh no - your lost bus stop novel is so sad!\nThanks as always for your support, Clare.\nAddy, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU for this post. I have been really struggling with my second novel, and with the fact that I can't ditch it, because I have a publisher's deadline. Your phrase 'the emotional spine' of the book was a Eureka moment for me. It made me ask the question, 'What is the emotional spine of my book?' and the answer to that question has helped me tighten and focus the story. I'm sure there will be plenty more struggles along the way, but that was such a help. And all the very best for your new book.\nAh, Helen - hooray!!\nI've just finished, Secret Hen House - what a charming and moving book!

Sometimes it's prostitution. In this case, it's a sweet guy doing a podcast.\"\nBut he's still in danger of being booted.\n\u00dclgen, who moved into the studio apartment four years ago, invites strangers into his pad where he conducts hour-long interviews for his podcast, m\u00fcrmur.\nHe got the idea for the show after he became despondent when he was rejected by a crush at work.\n\"This project is the reason why I'm breathing,\" said \u00dclgen. \"Why my heart is beating right now. It's helped me so much.\"\nOne of his first guests was a homeless person he approached outside.\nBut the show has evolved and he now finds guests via flyers he puts out seeking people to interview.\n\"The whole charm of the show is, hey, I'm putting my trust in you,\" he said. \"Come to my home. Let's just have a genuine, sincere heart to heart.\"\nAll told, he's interviewed more than 250 guests since the show was launched over three years ago.\n\"I've had everyone from prostitutes, homeless, rock stars, famous writers, doctors, lawyers,\" he said, \"you know, the whole gambit.\"\nA pamphlet \u00dclgen posted about his podcast. (Edgar Sandoval/New York Daily News)\nHe uses his childhood stuffed bear, Yumosh, as his silent sidekick during the interviews.\nBut the show is not going over well with some of his neighbors and is against the law, according to his landlord.\n\"Bottom line is this: It's a violation of housing code to be running an active business, even if he's not making money, inside a residential apartment,\" Perl said, adding \"other tenants don't feel secure.\"\nSo, when it came time to renew his lease, \u00dclgen was ordered to stop taping the show from inside his $2,100 a month apartment. Perl has also instructed him to remove all his recording equipment from the apartment as a condition for renewing the lease.\n\u00dclgen, who makes a living waiting tables and walking dogs, says the show doesn't generate any money.\nHe insists that despite the lack of background checks there have been no violent altercations or even occasional yelling with guests. \u00dclgen also says he's always careful to walk guests in and out the building after each interview.\n\"There's never been an issue,\" he said.\nNow, he's not sure what to do with the pricey equipment.\nPerl and his management team are set to begin inspections once a month, threatening to both evict him and sue him if he doesn't comply\n\"He's taking my oxygen tank away,\" he said, referring to Perl. \"I know he's not doing it to be mean.\"\nOn Tuesday, he said the equipment had been moved to an \"undisclosed location\" until he can find a permanent home for it next month.\n\"If I stopped the show, I truly wouldn't have a purpose for living,\" he said. \"Hopefully, through the help of the community, we we will find a solution.\"",

        "raw_content": "\u00ab David V. Griffin: It\u2019s Only Forever: David Bowie, Science Fiction Superstar | Main | Every Heart a Doorway by Seanan McGuire, reviewed by Dan\u2019l Danehy-Oakes \u00bb\nNew York: Atria Books 2016; $26.00 hc; 272 pages\nGood Grief, It\u2019s Daddy!\nSF and porn have always been brothers. They are both low-rent pop genres, traditionally (and erroneously) assumed to be for men. Even the names are similarly open to question with a certain amount of evaluation smuggled into the terminology: \u201cSpeculative fiction\u201d makes literary claims, \u201csci-fi\u201d is more populist, and \u201csf\u201d is somewhat neutral. There are even more terms, most of them even more evaluative, for the sexually oriented stuff, and \u201cporn\u201d may be the closest to a neutral one. We read erotic realism; you read porn; they read filth. There is even a two-letter abbreviation: DBs (Dirty Books).\nTheodore Sturgeon\u2019s complaint that the genre is judged by its worst examples is at least as true for porn as it is for sf, and the problem has been even worse on Robert Conquest\u2019s famous quatrain about the good examples being disqualified because they are good. Indeed, that approach was legally mandated for porn, with defense counsel required to provide expert opinion that the book on trial was really mainstream lit until the 1960s, when the Supreme Court extended the protection of the First Amendment to a DB with the unpromising title of The Sex Life of a Cop, for which no straight-faced claim of genre transcendence could be offered. (It also wasn\u2019t all that sexy by today\u2019s standards.) Shortly after that decision, Professor Steven Marcus\u2019s The Other Victorians, a study of My Secret Life, The Pearl, and other Victorian DBs that were finally being sold over the counter, noted that porn, like sf, takes place in an alternate reality, which he called Pornotopia, in which \u201cAll men ... are always and infinitely potent; all women fecundate with lust and flow inexhaustibly with sap or juice or both. Everyone is always ready for everything.\u201d The similarities make it unsurprising that there is a cultural overlap. For instance, the most successful DB of this century, E.L. James\u2019s Fifty Shades of Grey, comes out of the sf subculture of fanfiction. Many writers have worked in both categories; perhaps the most prolific (at least that we know about) was Andrew J. Offutt, and we now have a memoir of him, by his son Chris.\nOffutt\u2019s first (and in some ways best) sf novel, which bore the unfortunate title of EVIL Is LIVE Spelled Backwards, appeared in 1970. It was a descendant of Robert A. Heinlein\u2019s Revolt in 2100 with charms of its own. There is a brutal, sexually repressive theocracy led by a dictator known as the Pastor. (At that time, Sen. John Pastore [D-RI] was leading a crusade to protect the nation from televised improprieties.) There is an Underground, which sends out its subversive messages with a slogan adapted from another work of speculative fiction: \u201cWho is John Cleland?\u201d There is a relatively inexplicit orgy scene when the Underground lets loose an aphrodisiac spray in the headquarters of the theocrats and the Pastor alone stands aloof, weeping bitterly, because he was the only one who was serious about all that antisex stuff. Not a major work, but highly enjoyable.\nIn 1972, Offutt appeared in Again, Dangerous Visions with a pleasant if not overly sfnal tale called \u201cFor Value Received.\u201d In the introductory matter, he revealed that he wrote porn under the name of John Cleve. This announcement may have shocked a few of the more shockable readers (this was around the time that George R.R. Martin inspired a number of publicly announced cancellations of subscriptions to Analog by bringing overt heterosexuality to its hitherto unsullied pages with \u201cA Song for Lya\u201d), but it offered some of us a guidepost to the uncharted wilds of the brother genre.\nAfter EVIL, Offutt published a near-future dystopia, The Castle Keeps, and a space opera or two and then moved over to the neighboring category of sword & sorcery, writing a few barbarian books and participating in the Thieves\u2019 World series. He became known in the sf community but suffered a reversal in 1974.\nThe wit and verbal skill obvious in his better books won him the coveted Toastmaster spot at the 1974 Worldcon, held in Washington. As such, his main task was to amuse the crowd at the Hugo Award ceremony before the rocketships were given out. The circumstances were not ideal. The room was hot and overcrowded, and any presentation before the awards are announced is twice as long as it would be otherwise. As they say, it was a bad situation, and he proved himself equal to it.\nHe went on and on, in an excruciating flop-sweat performance reminiscent of Lenny Bruce\u2019s bit about the American comedian at the London Palladium except that it didn\u2019t end with a riot. Instead, Harlan Ellison came up to the podium and gently suggested that he STFU, which he then did. Offutt came to believe that he had thereby won Ellison\u2019s undying enmity, but his son asked, and Ellison told him that he didn\u2019t feel that way. (It is generally agreed that Ellison is not shy about mentioning those who have won his undying enmity, and I do not recall ever seeing Offutt\u2019s name in that context.) After that embarrassment, Offutt\u2019s personal presence in fandom slowly lessened. His sf production dwindled to nothing, and many of us wondered what he was doing. It turns out he was drinking himself to death, a task he completed in 2013.\nMeanwhile, his alter ego, John Cleve, had continued to produce. In the \u201970s, he averaged about a dozen DBs a year, some under other names. The bio notes that he industrialized the process, keeping voluminous files of descriptions of the parts and acts so that he would not too obviously repeat himself.\nOne could get the impression from this account that the books were all the same, and from the titles (The Domination of Camille, A Degraded Heroine, Delicious Discipline) that they were all male dominance, sort of Gor without the f/sf trappings, but the work is more interesting and varied than that. I am nowhere near to claiming the heroic accomplishment of having waded through all of Cleve\u2019s massive, throbbing oeuvre, but I can recall a few enjoyable ones:\nThe Great 24-Hour Thing was perhaps the only book that a porn publisher attributed to Andrew J. Offutt. It is a fantasy in which imps grant men\u2019s wishes for one day. There is a certain amount of delicious discipline, but there\u2019s also much pleasurable vanilla sex, and there are many laughs, not all of them sexual.\nConversely, Holly Would was a John Cleve book from a mainstream paperback publisher. Berkley Books was doing a series of Porn Lite books with more sexual explicitness than had previously been allowed but less than was offered by the serious smut and an emphasis on humor. Cleve gave us a skilled satirical tale of a man becoming rich and famous by acting rich and famous.\nForced into Incest was an effort to expand the boundaries of the genre by merging it with the then-popular vigilante subcategory. Two families (parents, teens) are captured by a gang out of Deliverance. Instead of buggering the men, however, the thugs force their victims into intrafamily relations. Because this is porn, they enjoy it. They then contrive to trap and kill their attackers. When they tell the sheriff that the bad guys killed each other, the sheriff sees through their story but allows them to get away with it because them sumbitches had it coming to them.\nTaken as a whole, John Cleve\u2019s oeuvre could have been a lot worse. (Perhaps this is a failing, but for me Funny is a source of redeeming social importance, and anyone who does it on purpose belongs above the lowest echelons. I feel that way about the much-maligned verse of Robert W. Service.) Along with most of the field, his books eschewed sex with animals or prepubertal children. There was a lot of male domination (and I would not be surprised if, like the Gor books, those attracted a number of women who would beat the crap out of anyone who tried to take their smut away), but there was also a lot of joyously consensual activity. Cleve also prided himself on being way ahead of the porn curve on female sexual anatomy, perhaps not a major accomplishment but a worthy one.\nIn porn, as in so many other genres, text was supplanted by visual media, and by the \u201980s there was no more place in it for the writings of John Cleve. Whereupon he underwent a transformation and emerged as Turk Winter. It began as a collaboration with a visual artist named Eric Stanton, a series of graphic graphic novels rich in fetishism, torture, and bondage. With Stanton, then alone when Stanton died, Turk Winter ran a privately distributed porn business, eventually selling individually customized tales of the same sort and developing friendly correspondence relationships with a number of his readers.\nWhen Andy Offutt died, he left his belongings to Chris with explicit instructions to look at the porn. There Chris learned, perhaps unsurprisingly, that his father was not only in it for the money. Along with the paying work, Chris found The Saga of Valkyria Barbosa, a 4000-page work, illustrated by Offutt himself (who traced because he could draw; Chris notes the parallel to Henry Darger), which he continued for most of his lifetime, set on a world of women who can scarlessly heal any wounds, regrow their hymens, and make their breasts as large as anyone could wish. Now that\u2019s Pornotopia, and poor Valkyria wound up suffering enough tortures and degradations to make the Marquis de Sade\u2019s Justine look like a ribbon clerk. Apparently, he never showed it to anyone.\nWe learn not to ascribe personal wonderfulness to the creators of the work we enjoy. I assume that the great pleasure I have derived from the novels of Evelyn Waugh and the poems of Philip Larkin was enhanced by never having to meet them, and this look into some of the more repellent thought patterns of an often enjoyable writer brings that lesson to mind.\nSomewhere along the line, Andrew J. Offutt learned to channel those aggressive impulses the Ev Psych people say we all have into a series of fantasies about hurting women. (There\u2019s a lot of that going around.) He told Chris that if he didn\u2019t write and draw that stuff, he would have become a serial killer, and he added that many of his customers said that they were likewise sublimating. Chris thinks that\u2019s self-serving, that his father lacked the courage and skills to succeed in that line of endeavor. Maybe. It\u2019s still almost certainly better that he didn\u2019t actually try it.\nIn the end, Andrew J. Offutt comes across as a severely flawed human being but not a monster except in the depths of his own mind. He didn\u2019t beat Chris (though Chris\u2019s teachers did), and if we accept the statistic that 96% of families are dysfunctional, his was probably somewhere near the middle.\nThis book is of course a tale of its author, as well as of its subject. Chris Offutt has survived being an Adult Child of an Alcoholic and an Adult Child of a Writer, belonging to perhaps the only family in his Kentucky town that engaged in book-larnin\u2019, and becoming a novelist and screenwriter, and he tells the story well.",

        "raw_content": "Cycling|Armstrong Says He Will Return for 2010\nArmstrong Says He Will Return for 2010\nBy JULIET MACUR JULY 21, 2009\nBOURG-ST.-MAURICE, France \u2014 With five stages left in the Tour de France, Lance Armstrong acknowledged Tuesday that an eighth Tour title might be out of reach \u2014 until next year.\nArmstrong, the seven-time Tour winner, said he was 100 percent sure that he would return to ride the 2010 Tour, though he would do so on a team with a new, American-based sponsor.\nThat sponsor will be announced at the Tour on Thursday, and will partner with the team for 2010 and beyond, Armstrong said, while speaking to reporters in his room at a ski lodge high above this city. He said he would neither finance nor run the team \u2014 only ride on it.\n\u201cEven though I\u2019ll be a year older, I think I\u2019ll be better,\u201d Armstrong said of next year\u2019s venture.\nHe added, though, that he still held out a sliver of hope that he would win the Tour this year, but he would have to beat his teammate Alberto Contador to do it.\nContador, a Spaniard who won the 2007 Tour, is the overall leader, 1 minute 37 seconds ahead of Armstrong. Bradley Wiggins, of the Garmin-Slipstream team, is in third, 1:46 behind Contador. The three-week race ends on Sunday in Paris.\n\u201cI think this year, it might be out of the question because Alberto is just too super,\u201d Armstrong said of his chances to win.\n\u201cIf he just avoids, which I think he will, a mistake, I don\u2019t see how any body beats him,\u201d Armstrong said. \u201cNext year? Different story.\u201d\nArmstrong, 37, emerged from retirement in the fall after three and a half years away from cycling, and appears to be headed to a team, with his longtime team manager, Johan Bruyneel, in charge.\nBruyneel said on Tuesday that he was leaving Astana at the end of the season. Later, Armstrong said he would never race for a team without Bruyneel as the chief of it.\n\u201cYou\u2019ll have to wait until Thursday to find out the details,\u201d Bruyneel said.\nNext year\u2019s plans aside, Armstrong must first make it to the end of this Tour, and several of the race\u2019s toughest stages are still to come. But so far, he has been impressive.\nIn his first season back after his retirement, Armstrong has shown that he is still one of the best cyclists in the world, even when he is one of the oldest riders in the race.\nLance Armstrong, the seven-time Tour winner, said would ride with a a new team with an American-based sponsor. Credit Lionel Bonaventure/Agence France-Presse \u2014 Getty Images\nHe admitted, though, that Contador has been so dominant, even a younger Armstrong could not have beaten him. He said Contador had pedaled up the climb during Sunday\u2019s stage in Verbier faster than Armstrong had ever gone. That quickness was matched or surpassed only by Marco Pantani of Italy, at the Giro d\u2019Italia in 1999, Armstrong said.\nStill, Armstrong showed some spark in his old legs on Stage 16, a 98.8-mile (159-kilometer) ride that started in the Swiss town of Martingy, traveled through Italy and ended up back in France.\nHe fell back from the pack that contained the race leaders, losing 35 seconds before finding more energy. He then zoomed back to that pack, as if he had not stumbled at all.\n\u201cIt\u2019s easy to explain; he\u2019s a very great rider,\u201d Contador said. \u201cHe was one in the past, and he showed it once again.\u201d\n\u201cLance did some great work today, but I didn\u2019t really need his help,\u201d he added. \u201cI\u2019m really satisfied with his performance.\u201d\nIn Stage 16, the ranking of the overall leaders did not change. Contador finished 10th, 59 seconds behind the stage winner, Mikel Astarloza of the Euskaltel-Euskadi team. Astarloza finished six seconds ahead of Sandy Casar, the Frenchman on the Fran\u00e7aise des Jeux team. Armstrong was 12th, also given the time of 59 seconds back from Astarloza.\nAfter the race, Armstrong sent best wishes to the Saxo Bank rider Jens Voigt \u2014 who is one day older than Armstrong. Voigt was forced to pull out of the race after crashing during the final descent.\nVoigt, a 37-year-old German, toppled onto the pavement, face first, and slid for about 20 feet before coming to a stop, unconscious.\nThe Saxo Bank team spokesman Brian Nygaard said that Voigt had a concussion and \u201cvery, very bruised face,\u201d and that he regained consciousness in the ambulance that arrived on the scene.\nVoigt was then transported via helicopter to a hospital, where test results showed that he had a broken bone under his right eye. From sliding along the pavement, he also has numerous wounds that need stitches.\n\u201cThere was no malfunction of the bike,\u201d Nygaard said. \u201cIt could be a freak accident.\u201d\nEarlier in the season, Armstrong also crashed during a race in March, breaking his right collarbone. The injury required surgery, and a metal plate was affixed to the bone to stabilize it.\nThough he has said he sat on the roadside after that crash, wondering if his return to racing was a smart move, Armstrong said Tuesday that he could not be more pleased with his performance this season.\nHe did say, though, that he missed the feeling of winning at this Tour, a ritual he became used to when he won every Tour from 1999 to 2005.\n\u201cWhile it\u2019d be great to win at nearly 38 years old, it\u2019s virtually unheard of in this game,\u201d he said. \u201cSo you\u2019ve got to understand and respect that, too.\u201d\nA version of this article appears in print on , on Page B13 of the New York edition with the headline: Armstrong Says He Will Return for 2010.

        "raw_content": "Asia Pacific|In Possible Thaw, Pakistani Leader Agrees to Attend Swearing-In Ceremony in India\nIn Possible Thaw, Pakistani Leader Agrees to Attend Swearing-In Ceremony in India\nIndia\u2019s new prime minister, Narendra Modi, arriving at the parliament building in New Delhi on Wednesday.CreditCreditRaveendran/Agence France-Presse \u2014 Getty Images\nBy Ellen Barry and Declan Walsh\nNEW DELHI \u2014 Ending days of hesitation, Pakistan\u2019s prime minister, Nawaz Sharif, on Saturday accepted an Indian invitation to attend the swearing-in of the new prime minister, Narendra Modi, offering a fresh opportunity to revitalize the moribund peace process between the two countries, which have had particularly frosty relations since early 2013.\nMr. Modi, a Hindu nationalist who promised in his campaign to make India a more assertive presence in South Asia, broke with precedent by inviting top officials from all members of the South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation to Monday\u2019s swearing-in ceremony, which has traditionally not included any foreign leaders.\nLeaders of Afghanistan, Bhutan, the Maldives, Nepal and Sri Lanka confirmed their attendance on Thursday, and Bangladesh promised to send the speaker of its Parliament, because its prime minister will be on a long-planned visit to Japan.\nMr. Sharif, however, delayed his answer as he consulted with political and military leaders. A decisive factor was the Indian offer of a bilateral meeting, Pakistani officials and analysts said, because it allowed him to give the visit a more substantive gloss.\n\u201cThe Pakistanis wanted to go, not just for a coronation but to meet the new leader of India,\u201d said Maleeha Lodhi, a former Pakistani ambassador to the United States. \u201cBut it\u2019s also important to tailor our expectations because this is a first meeting between two leaders who have never met. It will be mostly about sizing each other up.\u201d\nA tentative attempt to rebuild economic and diplomatic ties between India and Pakistan was derailed early in 2013, after fighting along the disputed border in Kashmir. Mr. Modi has a reputation as a hard-liner, and during the campaign he sharply criticized the governing Indian National Congress party for maintaining high-level contact with Pakistan despite unresolved disputes about security. At one point, he told a crowd, \u201cthe heads of our soldiers are cut, but then their prime minister is fed chicken biryani.\u201d\nBut Pakistani officials expressed hope that Mr. Modi would have the political freedom to resume building ties precisely because he, unlike his predecessor, is not vulnerable to attacks from the right \u2014 just as in the United States, President Richard M. Nixon, a staunch anti-Communist, was able to reach out to China in the early 1970s.\nIn Islamabad, the Pakistani capital, the reaction to Mr. Sharif\u2019s decision was mixed. Shamshad Ahmad, a retired diplomat who once headed the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, said Mr. Sharif should not have agreed to the visit. \u201cHe should have waited, let Modi step into office and lay out his Pakistan policy, and then make decisions,\u201d he said.\nStill, Mr. Sharif\u2019s decision enjoys support across the political spectrum, and met with no public resistance from the army.\nMr. Sharif\u2019s ability to deliver on any peace initiative depends largely on his relationship with the military, which recently came under strain because of the continuing treason trial of Pervez Musharraf, the former military leader.\nNawaz Sharif.CreditSang Tan/Associated Press\nMr. Modi has a poor reputation among Indian liberals and Muslims, who blame him for not acting quickly enough to stop religious riots that broke out in 2002 in Gujarat, the state he then governed. Last week, some Congress officials accused Mr. Modi of hypocrisy, but many of his critics cheered his decision to invite Mr. Sharif, and more approving messages came on Saturday after Mr. Sharif accepted.\n\u201cVery glad to hear Pak PM has accepted invite, shows that he can prevail over forces inimical to good relations with India,\u201d Omar Abdullah, the chief minister of the Indian-administered state of Jammu and Kashmir, said in a Twitter post on Saturday. \u201cI hope this will mark a new beginning in ties between our two countries.\u201d\nThe planned meeting between Mr. Modi and Mr. Sharif on Tuesday is unlikely to result in any major decisions, and should be viewed as an \u201cicebreaker\u201d between the two leaders, who both run a risk by taking part, said Ashley J. Tellis, a senior associate with the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, a research center based in Washington.\nMr. Modi\u2019s regional foreign policy vision has economics at its core, Mr. Tellis said, and there would be a clear economic payoff to normalizing relations with Pakistan. But the new Indian leader \u201cwill not have the luxury of doing what is comfortable in his gut,\u201d because the relationship is so strongly defined by national security issues, he said. Meanwhile, many within the political establishment may view any attempt at rapprochement with skepticism.\n\u201cThere is no doubt that under the surface, there is grumbling,\u201d Mr. Tellis said. \u201cIt tells you something about Modi, which is that if he is convinced that this is what he has to do, he really doesn\u2019t care what the skeptics say.\u201d\nMr. Modi, an outsider to New Delhi, has little track record on matters of foreign policy at the national level. He was powerfully influenced by his years as a full-time activist for a Hindu right-wing ideological organization, the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh, but as a state leader, he looked overseas pragmatically, with a focus on economic development. As an opening gambit, Mr. Modi\u2019s invitation to regional leaders suggested that he would emulate Atal Vajpayee, the last prime minister from the Bharatiya Janata Party, who oversaw a steady warming in relations with Pakistan.\n\u201cThere is that Nixon-in-China theory, that he is the only one who can make that unilateral gesture which cannot be compromised by anyone, and there is also the idea that his DNA is so anti-Pakistan\u201d that he could not engage with its leaders, said Amitabh Mattoo, the director of the Australia India Institute at the University of Melbourne in Australia.\n\u201cI believe he will go for the former,\u201d Mr. Mattoo said. \u201cModi, contrary to all the assumptions of his detractors, really wants to go down in history \u2014 not necessarily compromising India\u2019s positions, but he will reach out.\u201d\nMr. Modi\u2019s invitation to the Sri Lankan president, Mahinda Rajapaksa, created a stir in India\u2019s domestic politics, since powerful regional leaders in the state of Tamil Nadu have long pressured the government in New Delhi not to engage with neighboring Sri Lanka. Late last year, Tamil politicians demanded that Prime Minister Manmohan Singh boycott a meeting of regional leaders in the Sri Lankan capital, Colombo, to express India\u2019s concern over the treatment of Tamils.\nOn Thursday, Tamil Nadu\u2019s chief minister, Jayalalithaa Jayaram, released a statement describing Mr. Modi\u2019s invitation as \u201ctantamount to rubbing salt into the wounds of an already deeply injured Tamil psyche.\u201d\nBut national elections this month gave Mr. Modi\u2019s party 282 seats in Parliament, meaning he can form a government without the help of Ms. Jayaram, and compared with his predecessors, he has far less to lose from alienating her. The invitation to Mr. Rajapaksa sends a powerful message to India\u2019s regional heavyweights that Mr. Modi will make his decisions independently.\n\u201cWhat happened in the last few years is that they completely abandoned responsibility and leadership, and in one shot, he is signaling to all the states that this is going to be a different game,\u201d said C. Raja Mohan, a foreign-policy analyst in New Delhi. \u201cHe is signaling that he is going to do his own thing, that he wants the freedom to do it his way.\u201d\nBecause of an editing error, an article on May 25 about a decision by Pakistan\u2019s prime minister, Nawaz Sharif, to attend the swearing-in of India\u2019s new prime minister, Narendra Modi, despite the history of tensions between the nations referred incorrectly in some editions to an invitation that upset the leaders of Tamil Nadu State in India. It was the invitation extended to Mahinda Rajapaksa, the president of Sri Lanka \u2014 not the one to Mr. Sharif. (Tamils in India have long expressed concerns over the treatment of Tamils in Sri Lanka.)\nEllen Barry reported from New Delhi, and Declan Walsh from London.

        "raw_content": "Technology|Microsoft Is Worth as Much as Apple. How Did That Happen?\nMicrosoft\u2019s stock price has nearly tripled since Satya Nadella became chief executive in 2014.CreditCreditTed S. Warren/Associated Press\nJust a few years ago, Microsoft was seen as a lumbering has-been of the technology world.\nIt was big and still quite profitable, but the company had lost its luster, failing or trailing in the markets of the future like mobile, search, online advertising and cloud computing. Its stock price languished, inching up 3 percent in the decade through the end of 2012.\nIt\u2019s a very different story today. Microsoft is running neck and neck with Apple for the title of the world\u2019s most valuable company, both worth about $850 billion, thanks to a stock price that has climbed 30 percent over the last 12 months. At the end of trading Friday, Microsoft was just ahead of its longtime rival.\nThe company built on its strengths\nThere is a short-term explanation for Microsoft\u2019s market rise, and there is a longer-term one.\nThe near-term, stock-trading answer is that Microsoft has held up better than others during the recent sell-off of tech company shares. Apple investors are worried about a slowdown in iPhone sales. Facebook and Google face persistent attacks on their role in distributing false news and conspiracy theories, and investor concerns that their privacy policies could scare off users and advertisers.\nBut the more enduring and important answer is that Microsoft has become a case study of how a once-dominant company can build on its strengths and avoid being a prisoner of its past. It has fully embraced cloud computing, abandoned an errant foray into smartphones and returned to its roots as mainly a supplier of technology to business customers.\nThat strategy was outlined by Satya Nadella shortly after he became chief executive in 2014. Since then, Microsoft\u2019s stock price has nearly tripled.\nIt bet big on the cloud and won \u2026\nOne of the data centers that power Microsoft\u2019s lucrative cloud computing services.CreditRichard Duvall\nMicrosoft\u2019s path to cloud computing \u2014 processing, storage and software delivered as a service over the internet from remote data centers \u2014 was lengthy and sometimes halting.\nIts forerunners to cloud computing go back to the 1990s, with Microsoft\u2019s MSN online service and later its Bing search engine. In 2010, four years after Amazon entered the cloud market, Microsoft introduced its cloud service. But it did not have an offering comparable to Amazon\u2019s until 2013, analysts say.\nEven then, Microsoft\u2019s cloud service was a side business. The corporate center of gravity remained its Windows operating system, the linchpin of the company\u2019s wealth and power during the personal computer era. That changed after Mr. Nadella replaced Steven A. Ballmer, who had been chief executive for 14 years.\nMr. Nadella made the cloud service a top priority, and the company is now a strong No. 2 to Amazon. Microsoft has nearly doubled its share of that market to 13 percent since the end of 2015, according to the Synergy Research Group. Amazon\u2019s share has held steady at 33 percent over that span.\nMicrosoft has also retooled its popular Office apps like Word, Excel and PowerPoint in a cloud version, Office 365. That offering caters to people who prefer to use software as an internet service and gives Microsoft a competitive entry against online app suppliers like Google.\nThe financial payoff from the shift came gradually at first, but is accelerating. In the year that ended in June, Microsoft\u2019s revenue rose 15 percent, to $110 billion, and operating profit increased 13 percent, to $35 billion.\n\u201cThe essence of what Satya Nadella did was the dramatic shift to the cloud,\u201d said David B. Yoffie, a professor at the Harvard Business School. \u201cHe put Microsoft back into a high-growth business.\u201d\nIt is the perception that Microsoft is on a high-growth track that has fueled its rising share price.\n\u2026 while walking away from losing bets\nA 2014 phone produced by Microsoft after its ill-fated purchase of Nokia.CreditMarkus Schreiber/Associated Press\nWhen Microsoft acquired Nokia\u2019s mobile phone business in 2013, Mr. Ballmer hailed the move as a \u201cbold step into the future.\u201d Two years later, Mr. Nadella walked away from that future, taking a $7.6 billion charge, nearly the entire value of the purchase, and shedding 7,800 workers.\nMicrosoft would not try to compete with the smartphone technology leaders, Apple, Google and Samsung. Instead, Microsoft focused on its developing apps and other software for business customers.\nMicrosoft does have a successful consumer franchise in its Xbox video game business. But it is a separate unit, and though it generates revenue of $10 billion, that is still less than 10 percent of the company\u2019s overall sales.\nMicrosoft products, in the main, are about utility \u2014 productivity tools, whether people use them at work or at home. And its Azure cloud technology is a service for businesses and a platform for software developers to build applications, a kind of cloud operating system.\nMr. Nadella\u2019s big acquisitions have been intended to add to its offerings for business users and developers. In 2016, Microsoft bought LinkedIn, the social network for professionals, for $26.2 billion.\n\u201cIt\u2019s really the coming together of the professional cloud and the professional network,\u201d Mr. Nadella explained at the time.\nThis year, Microsoft paid $7.5 billion for GitHub, an open software platform used by 28 million programmers.\nIt has opened up its technology and culture\nUnder Mr. Nadella, Microsoft has loosened up. Windows would no longer be its center of gravity \u2014 or its anchor. Microsoft apps would run not only on Apple\u2019s Macintosh software but on other operating systems as well. Open source and free software, once anathema to Microsoft, was embraced as a vital tool of modern software development.\nMr. Nadella preached an outward-looking mind-set. \u201cWe need to be insatiable in our desire to learn from the outside and bring that learning into Microsoft,\u201d he wrote in his book \u201cHit Refresh,\u201d published last year.\nThe company\u2019s financial performance \u2014 and its stock price \u2014 suggest that the Nadella formula is working.\n\u201cThe old, Windows-centric view of the world stifled innovation,\u201d said Michael A. Cusumano, a professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology\u2019s Sloan School of Management. \u201cThe company has changed culturally. Microsoft is an exciting place to work again.\u201d\nA version of this article appears in print on , on Page B4 of the New York edition with the headline: Microsoft Is Worth as Much as Apple.

        "raw_content": "GARDENA, Calif., Nov. 29, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Polar Power, Inc. (NASDAQ: POLA), a global provider of prime, backup and solar hybrid DC power solutions, announced today increasing demand from U.S. telecom providers during the fourth quarter of 2018 has resulted in a backlog of $19.1 million as of November 26th, 2018. This is a $17.3 million increase from a backlog of $1.8 million on December 31, 2017. The backlog of $19.1 million reflects $1.1 million in international sales from Africa and Asia regions, which is a key strategic growth initiative for the company.\nPolar Power C.E.O. Arthur D. Sams commented, \"Over the course of the year we have made great strides in positioning Polar Power for long term success including receiving product certifications from top tier-1 telecom providers worldwide and nearly doubling our manufacturing capacity as we go into 2019. We believe that we have overcome major supply chain issues encountered during Q3 2018, allowing us to increase our production from mid-November.\n\"Over the past couple years, we have made significant investments in introducing new models and increasing our technologies in DC backup power, lithium battery storage and renewable energy. This year has been a breakthrough year for Polar as we have gained significant momentum in convincing tier-1 telecom providers to switch from older AC backup power systems to more efficient DC powered backup generators and this is clearly reflected in the notable bookings.\"\nGardena, California-based Polar Power, Inc. (NASDAQ: POLA), designs, manufactures and sells direct current, or DC, power systems, lithium battery powered hybrid solar systems for applications in the telecommunications market and, in other markets, including military, electric vehicle charging, cogeneration, distributed power and uninterruptable power supply. Within the telecommunications market, Polar's systems provide reliable and low-cost energy for applications for off-grid and bad-grid applications with critical power needs that cannot be without power in the event of utility grid failure. For more information, please visit www.polarpower.com.\nWith the exception of historical information, the matters discussed in this press release including, without limitation, Polar Power's belief that the new production facility will double its production output in the near future. Polar Power belief that DC Power technology is superior to AC power technology; Polar Power belief that it can deliver the backlog to its customers on time; for substantial revenue growth in 2019; Polar Power's expectation that lithium battery storage and renewable energy products can generate significant growth in sales; are forward-looking statements and considerations that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. The actual future results of Polar Power could differ from those statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, adverse economic and market conditions, including demand for DC power systems; raw material and manufacturing costs; changes in governmental regulations and policies; and other events, factors and risks previously and from time to time disclosed in Polar Power's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission including, specifically, those factors set forth in the \"Risk Factors\" section contained in Polar Power's Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 8, 2018.\nView original content:http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/polar-power-announces-record-backlog-of-19-1-million-in-dc-power-systems-300757565.html",

Many Rams fans left behind in St. Louis will not be cheering for the team when it takes on the Patriots in the Super Bowl. (Whitney Curtis for The Los Angeles Times)\nAndy McCulloughContact Reporter\nThe pixelated billboard outside the Dome at America\u2019s Center offered no acknowledgment of its previous tenant.\nTwo days after the Rams clinched their first Super Bowl berth since 2002, the building \u2014 which in its heyday housed \u201cThe Greatest Show on Turf\u201d \u2014 offered no evidence of celebrating the achievement.\n\u201cWelcome to St. Louis,\u201d the screen read, before pivoting to an advertisement for a Garth Brooks concert in March.\nThree years after the Rams uprooted for Los Angeles, three years after Stan Kroenke became an epithet in this town, three years after a twister of hurt feelings and litigation was kicked up, the outbursts of rage have morphed into pangs of melancholy.\nFormer Rams fans harbor more emptiness than anger. They hide the hurt well. In order to find remnants of their fandom, you have to search a little deeper than the stadium situated a few blocks from the Mississippi River.\nOn a rainy Tuesday evening, inside a shopping center about 30 miles west of downtown, a man named Matt Meier led the way to a hidden stockpile inside the Rally House sporting goods store he manages in St. Peters, Mo.\nMeier strode past displays for baseball\u2019s Cardinals, hockey\u2019s Blues, the Missouri Tigers and Kansas City Chiefs. He veered away from the sections for Missouri State and Saint Louis University.\nFinally, he opened the door to a back-room warehouse overflowing with discounted \u201cMillennium Blue and New Century Gold\u201d-colored Rams gear.\n\u201cBelieve it or not,\u201d Meier said, \u201cthere are still some Rams fans here.\u201d\nThere's plenty of St. Louis Rams merchandise for sale at Rally House in St. Peters, Mo.\nThere's plenty of St. Louis Rams merchandise for sale at Rally House in St. Peters, Mo. (Whitney Curtis for The Los Angeles Times)\nAfter the team left in January of 2016, Rally House decided to consolidate the Rams gear from its five stores into one location, across the hall from the men\u2019s room. The stash stretches on hangers spread across one wall, with five separate racks nearby, a collection of T-shirts, polos and hoodies. There are fitted caps, snapbacks and dad hats. In boxes across the room is even more Rams-stamped ephemera: piggy banks, alarm clocks, golf balls, sandals, slippers, cell-phone cases and $17.99 thongs.\nDuring the season, Meier estimated, the store receives a couple of customers a week in search of Rams apparel. There are also a few knowledgeable shoppers who make repeated visits. But there is far more interest these days in the cross-state Chiefs, whose merchandise is positioned in the front display window. When Kansas City lost to New England in the AFC championship game Jan. 20, a nightmare scenario unfolded for St. Louis, with bitter memories raised by both Super Bowl participants.\nBy that Sunday evening, when the Super Bowl matchup finally was set, \u201cSt. Louis was in a collective depression,\" said Bob Wallace, a former Rams executive who is now an attorney in the city. Wallace cited the Spygate allegations that dogged the Patriots after they beat the St. Louis Rams in Super Bowl XXXVI in 2002.\n\"The Patriots were probably the city's least favorite team, prior to the Rams leaving,\u201d Wallace said. \u201cThe Rams are now the least favorite team.\"\nOne night last week, former season-ticket holders Rick and Ronda Freedman gathered a collection of heirlooms on their kitchen table. There was a baseball cap given out to the original class of personal-seat license holders from 1995. There was a photograph of star cornerback Aeneas Williams visiting a school. There were a trio of tickets to playoff games from the 1999 season, when Kurt Warner, Marshall Faulk and Isaac Bruce formed a revolutionary offense.\nThe paraphernalia gather dust these days. Ronda joked that Rick wanted to torch it all, but she couldn\u2019t go through with it.\n\u201cA lot of people in St. Louis just enjoy seeing the Rams lose, at this point,\u201d Rick said. \u201cBecause they burned the city of St. Louis.\u201d\nSaid Ronda: \u201cIt\u2019s all the ownership. Nobody dislikes the players.\u201d\nBilly Hurst / Associated Press\nRams fans attending the team's final game in St. Louis in 2015 clearly didn't support owner Stan Kroenke's decision to move the team to Los Angeles.\nRams fans attending the team's final game in St. Louis in 2015 clearly didn't support owner Stan Kroenke's decision to move the team to Los Angeles. (Billy Hurst / Associated Press)\nThe Rams do not inspire simple antipathy here. Their former fans root for the kicking duo of Johnny Hekker and Greg Zuerlein. They admire the prowess of defensive tackle Aaron Donald and running back Todd Gurley. They feel jealousy about the partnership between coach Sean McVay and quarterback Jared Goff.\nThe majority of the anger is directed toward the management team of Kroenke and chief operating officer Kevin Demoff. Local members of the media accuse the pair of conspiring to leave without giving the city a fair chance to keep the team. They blame the NFL for facilitating the move. And they curse Kroenke for denigrating the market on his way out by saying it could not support pro football.\n\u201cIn St. Louis history, sports or otherwise, the two most reviled people are Stan Kroenke and Kevin Demoff,\u201d said Randy Karraker, who hosts the afternoon drive-time show on 101 ESPN. \u201cThey are met with disdain every time their name comes up.\u201d\nKroenke could not be reached for a response. A representative for Kroenke Sports and Entertainment directed all questions to the Rams. A spokesperson for the team said the Rams would not comment.\nKroenke was instrumental in delivering the Rams to St. Louis in the first place. He bought a 40% stake in the team when Georgia Frontiere moved the Rams out of Los Angeles in 1995. In their fifth season in town, lightning struck. Warner went from grocery bagger to Super Bowl MVP. The team made the playoffs five times during a six-year stretch, and the Rams superseded the Cardinals as the city\u2019s hottest ticket.\n\u201cThe team was so incredibly popular,\u201d said Tiffani Wilson Burris, who worked for the Rams for several years before becoming the executive director of the Isaac Bruce Foundation. \u201cThey were so beloved in this city. People loved them. It was everything.\u201d\nWilliams played the final four seasons of his Hall of Fame defensive back career in St. Louis before becoming a pastor in a suburb outside the city. Fifteen years after he made his final tackle, he still receives reminders from members of the community. He said he will be greeted by \u201cthree generations of fans \u2014 grandfather, father and son,\u201d who tell him stories about games inside the dome. \u201cFond memories,\u201d he said, \u201cthat people will remember for the rest of their lives.\u201d\nThe downturn began in 2005. Coach Mike Martz stepped down because of a heart issue midway through a 6-10 season, which ushered in a decade of losing. The team went 50-109-1 from 2006 to 2015 under the coaching guidance of mediocrities such as Scott Linehan, Steve Spagnuolo and Jeff Fisher. The front office misfired in the draft. Attendance continued to sag after Kroenke became the primary owner in 2010. As the team stalled, the rumblings about Los Angeles intensified when Kroenke purchased 60 acres of land in Inglewood in 2014.\n\u201cYou start hearing the rumors that the team was looking to leave, and then people get angry and they stop going to games,\u201d Burris said. \u201cThat hurt St. Louis\u2019 chances of keeping the team, because your attendance is down.\n\u201cBut you can\u2019t really blame anyone at that point because they know the team is trying to leave, so they don\u2019t want to give them the money. It was really hard to watch it just fade away, when there was such magic at one time.\u201d\nSt. Louis had already lost pro football once. That team, also the Cardinals, left for Phoenix in 1988. But locals sought to make a distinction between that move and the departure of the Rams. Back then, Karraker and Wallace explained, the city allowed the team to go without much effort.\nThe last time the Rams won the Super Bowl, wide receiver Ricky Proehl ran across the field, shouting with his hands in the air. Then he bolted behind the St. Louis Rams\u2019 bench near the 20-yard line, where his family waited in the stands.\nHe hoisted his son Austin on his shoulders.\n\u201cI wanted him,...\nIn the more recent case, Missouri Gov. Jay Nixon in 2014 assembled a task force, headed by attorney Bob Blitz and former Anheuser-Busch executive Dave Peacock, to entice the Rams to stay. In January 2015, Kroenke revealed plans to build a stadium at the Inglewood site. The task force could not convince him there was a more suitable alternative in St. Louis.\nBlitz is now leading one of four lawsuits filed in the wake of the Rams\u2019 exit. The team recently reached a settlement regarding the thousands of fans who bought personal-seat licenses. There remains litigation regarding the ownership of the team\u2019s former practice facility and a suit involving merchandise. Blitz is involved in a suit filed on behalf of the city and the county alleging breach of contract and fraud, among other charges, related to the team relocating.\nA message left for Peacock went unreturned. A representative from the St. Louis Sports Commission declined to comment. An email sent to Blitz met a similar fate. \u201cThanks for thinking of us but it is our policy not to comment on pending litigation,\u201d Blitz replied.\nAs the lawsuits wended their way through the legal system, the city attempted to move forward. The jilted fans took glee in the Rams\u2019 4-12 campaign in 2016, the first season in Los Angeles. A local Dairy Queen offered discounted ice cream after every loss. A chain of bars put Kroenke\u2019s face on the urinal cakes. Individual donations to Bruce\u2019s foundation shrank, as fans didn\u2019t want to associate with the brand, Burris said.\n\u201cIt\u2019s hard because people are so hurt right now,\u201d Burris said. \u201cMaybe, eventually, that hurt will fade a little bit. But right now, it\u2019s just so new, and it hurt so bad for so many of these fans.\u201d\nWith the arrival of McVay as coach, schadenfreude became more difficult. No longer were the Rams a laughing stock. Ambivalence became more prevalent. The Freedmans shifted their devotion toward Ohio State, where their son went to college. \u201cI\u2019m amazed by the number of people who reached out to me on social media over the weekend and said they\u2019re just completely done with the NFL,\u201d Karraker said.\nThe vacuum has not yet been filled. At OB Clark\u2019s sports bar in nearby Brentwood, Mo., the ceiling was adorned with strands of red, blue and green lights. A Missouri helmet rested atop the bar; a Cardinals baseball-themed Budweiser sign glowed red. The bartender wore a New Orleans Saints T-shirt while vouching for the day\u2019s special, the pan-fried chicken for $8.95.\nA fellow wearing a Rams cap finished his meal and walked toward the door.\n\u201cThere\u2019s a young man who is rooting for the Rams,\u201d cracked Jim O\u2019Brien, who has co-owned and operated the bar with his brother Joe for three decades. The bar used to be a regular landing spot for Rams officials, he said. They would receive occasional visits from Hekker and Zuerlein, Sam Bradford and Chris Long.\nDuring the NFC championship game on Jan. 20, O\u2019Brien estimated, about 70% of bar patrons was rooting for the Saints. He couldn\u2019t blame them. He watched how the team wilted during its final years in St. Louis, only to blossom in Los Angeles. \u201cI don\u2019t really think they\u2019re rooting against the Rams as much as they\u2019re rooting against the Rams\u2019 owner,\u201d O\u2019Brien said.\nAlong the walls, the bar used to hang framed jerseys of Bradford and Warner. Now the walls featured the jersey of baseball all-star Matt Carpenter from the Cardinals and four hockey players. O\u2019Brien was asked what became of the Rams gear. Did he trash it?\n\u201cOh, no, I wouldn\u2019t throw it out,\u201d O\u2019Brien said. \u201cWe\u2019re not that angry. We still like those guys.\u201d\nInstead, they packed away the gear in the basement. Like the rest of the Rams\u2019 legacy in this city, it\u2019s hidden but not forgotten.",

        "raw_content": "Rubbermade Products, via Flickr Creative Commons\nWhat have you noticed when you've made a conscious effort to organize your mind and surroundings?\nJane and I usually have lunch after yoga class on Saturdays. Recently, she politely excused herself and told me how excited she was to continue de-cluttering her house.\n\u201cCome over later and take a look at my drawers,\u201d she said. \u201cIt\u2019s changing my life.\u201d\nOnce we let go, we have the space to receive.\nI could not wait to see what she was doing. When I arrived at her house, she proudly showed me all the space she was able to open up in her drawers and closets.\nShe had been using the techniques suggested by Marie Kondo in her book, The Life- Changing Magic of Tidying up: The Japanese Art of Decluttering and Organizing. Kondo teaches about the idea of letting go of things that don\u2019t spark joy. She explains how to touch and hold each piece of clothing (or anything in your house) and ask yourself \u201cDoes this spark joy?\u201d If it doesn\u2019t, it\u2019s time to let it go. When all that is left around you is that which sparks joy there is more room in your life.\nThis idea of letting go is woven throughout the teachings of yoga. It is a call to orderliness and cleanliness, both external and internal. Cleaning and letting go allows energy to flow freely. When we create order and spaciousness around us, we can free up our mental energy as well. We release and it\u2019s in that release that we dissolve all kinds of blockages. Clutter makes it more difficult to relax both physically and mentally, explains Dr. Sherrie Bourg Carter, Psy.D. in an article in Psychology Today entitled \u201c 8 Reasons Why Mess Causes Stress. 8 Reasons and 8 Remedies.\u201d Clutter, she says, signals to our brains that our work is never done.\nMaking the Space to Receive\nWe all know the feeling we get when things pile up around us. Even if it\u2019s just that one closet, drawer or corner, it has an effect on our ability to feel free and unencumbered. We say to ourselves, I should really be more organized. Yet the idea of actually doing something about that feeling can be completely overwhelming, in addition to our everyday duties and responsibilities. We can start to feel like Hector the Collector from Shel Silverstein\u2019s\u2019 Where the Sidewalk Ends. Once we let go, we have the space to receive. It helps us open our hearts to give and receive both physically and emotionally.\nIn the Chinese art of Feng Shui, there is much thought that goes into how we place things strategically in our space because ultimately it affects our mind and our success in the world. Before the items are placed carefully around us, however, we are taught to declutter our surroundings. In his book Feng Shui for Dummies, author David Kennedy writes, \u201cWhether or not you\u2019re aware of it, your environment profoundly affects your health, wealth, family life, relationship, and yes, even your destiny.\u201d In the same way that our \u201cthings\u201d can clutter our surroundings, our thoughts and fears can clutter our minds. As we begin to find order around us, we start to find order and space within us. And in turn, if we find order and space within us we begin to create order in the space around us.\nMeditation for Organization\nOur daily meditation practice is one of the most important tools for organizing the mind. In meditation, we focus the mind and let all the other thoughts gently arise and dissipate. We allow the \u201cclutter in the mind\u201d to gently unwind as we redirect our attention to a single point. While holding attention to a single point or object, we infuse that attention with more awareness of what is arising. We do this without any judgment, and by holding a compassionate space for all thought to come and go, we can soften and let go. We begin to feel lighter and freer, just like when we let go of physical objects that create clutter. The mind stops clinging and becomes more organized. There is a clarity that emerges and a profound sense of joy when we make space for ourselves.\nRecently after my morning meditation, I decided to join my friend Jane and begin organizing my sock drawer. Letting go of a few old or unmatched socks, I now know, is a small but important step to inspire more joy in my life.\nWhat have you noticed when you\u2019ve made a conscious effort to organize your mind and surroundings?\nBeth DeRoos July 15, 2015\nLove Marie Kondo and recommend her one book to people all the time. Would like to note that Bea Johnson who lives in Marin County, CA west of us has a book and a blog on Facebook and called The Zero Waste House.\nHave always tried to live a minimalist lifestyle which my late husband got me started on, but her method has taken me to a whole new level.\nReally enjoyed this article. Thank you\nSusi Amendola July 15, 2015\nThanks for your comment Beth. I have heard about Bea Johnsons blog. I will have to check it out.",

        "title": "Opening of the George-Knysna railway line, 1928 - Outeniqua Choo Tjoe",
        "raw_content": "Opening of the George-Knysna railway line, 1928\nPosted on Tue May 2, 2017.\nCeremonial Opening by the Hon. C.W. Malan, Minister of Railways and Harbours\nAn article originally published in the S.A. Railways & Harbours Magazine, November 1928\nAlthough the railway from George to Knysna has been available for goods and passenger traffic since May last, it was formally opened by the Minister of Railways and Harbours, the Hon. C.W. Malan, on Wednesday, October 17th.\nThe scenes of enthusiasm on the occasion exceeded in intensity those witnessed when the first crossing by rail was made, as no doubt the people of the town and district recognised that by giving the line his official blessing, the Minister directly intimated the Government\u2019s continued interest in all that concerns the railway and the progress of the district it now links up with the rest of the Union.\nSince he has held the portfolio of Minister of Railways, the Hon. C.W. Malan has officiated at a number of railway openings, and for the most part the lines handed over have been notable for the part they were destined to play in advancing the agricultural development of the Union. In regard to the George Knysna railway, it fell to Mr. Malan\u2019s lot to give an official send off to a section of railway construction that by reason of the extraordinarily impressive and various scenery it traverses is bound to achieve renown not only through South Africa, but in other parts. That it will also play an important part in helping to increase the productivity of the district through which it runs is certain, for already signs are apparent of the manner whereby this steel link with the network of railways covering the sub-continent will impel greater returns in various branches of farming. But before this aspect of traffic will show an appreciable increase, the utility of the line as regards tourists will be amply demonstrated, and the returns from travellers bound for the Wilderness and Knysna, and, as time goes on, one or two smaller places en route, will go far in making the line a well worth-while undertaking.\nTravelling from George to Knysna is like being present at an animated art exhibition, each mile presenting a new canvas that calls forth exclamations of pleasure. Never does the passenger reach for his timetable to see when and where is the next halt. One loses, to a certain degree, the sense of time, thanks to a profusion of scenic delights and the excitement of going over comparatively virgin country. In substituting the train for the motor, most people will find that the transference has much in it\u2019s favour. Soon the George Knysna railway will become among holiday-makers the synonym for tantalising travel.\n\u201cForty-two miles of smiles\u201d said one person after making the journey, and in this appropriate simile he has not stepped beyond the bounds of veracity.\nBefore detailing the function of the official opening of the line it may be as well to give a general survey of the route.\nWinding rapidly down to the sea, past fern covered hills and deep gullies studded with wild flowers, the first glimpse of the ocean is obtained at Victoria Bay. Many feet below the metals, the waves, dashing themselves against the rocks, send up a fine spray, the salt tang of which is very pleasant for the hinterlander. Through two tunnels of moderate length cut into the hills above the sea the train approaches the Kaaimans River, the crossing of which at present is made by means of a temporary trestle bridge.\nAlongside it, rapidly nearing completion, is the permanent structure, 520 feet long, in a situation which to say the least is remarkable. By December it is calculated that trains will run across it, and the views up the river as the crossing is made will enchant even the most blas\u00e9. As the traveller emerges from the last tunnel the scene opens up in all its glory, the view including the golden beaches and enticing woodland of the Wilderness, that deservedly popular resort which will enjoy greater popularity\u2014if such is possible\u2014because of the picturesque approach by rail. The station is prettily set against the background of the forest clad hills, and within easy access of the beach and hotel. From the Wilderness onwards for some miles the rails traverse what may be termed an African Lakeland, so numerous and attractive are the sheets of water that occur with pleasing frequency. Wild ducks in thousands enliven these waters.\nBefore the climbing of the hills flanking the shores of the lagoon at Knysna, there is presented to the traveller a perfect gem of rural beauty-Goukamma. Beautiful green hills surround little farms whose boundaries lead down to a placid stream meandering leisurely into the folds of the hills. A small bridge painted red shows up vividly among the welter of greenery, the whole blending to charm the spectator. Immediately above the halt the rails make a great horse-shoe bend in the negotiating of the slopes of the hills, the traveller being enabled to obtain another, and more extensive view of the glorious Goukamma before it passes out of sight behind the cuttings.\nSoon the lagoon and township of Knysna break into view, forming a picture\u2014from the vantage point above the hills - which countless cameras will perpetuate for many years. The crossover is effected by earthworks, built on the islands, and a long bridge. Crossing the latter at high tide makes one feel that the train has suddenly acquired amphibian characteristics, and is floating over. From either window of the carriage the views are exceedingly fine, the long stretch of river and The Heads vying with each other to hold the attention of the traveller. The train pulls up on the shores of the lagoon, within a few minutes walk from the hotels and business part of this pleasant holiday resort.\nSuch in brief is the George Knysna railway. It has taken nearly four years to build, and it\u2019s successful accomplishment calls for the highest praise for all concerned. The difficulties that confront railway engineers in all parts of the world were met on this occasion in no uncertain fashion, and besides the work entailed in laying a line along the mountainous coast-line of South Africa, the engineers had to call in divers to assist in putting in the caissons to bridge the rivers. The obstacles imposed by Nature have been conquered by science and skill, the whole construction being another milestone established by the Railway Administration.\nThe official opening train, with Messrs. Dowson and White in charge, left George early on the morning of October 17th, and before it steamed into Knysna with the Minister of Railways and Harbours and Mr. C.T.M. Wilcocks, member of the Railway Board, on board, fully seven hundred people had availed themselves of the Administration\u2019s invitation to participate in the celebrations.\nPromptly at noon the train swung through the flower-bedecked arch on which was written a useful variation of the usual \u201cWelcome,\u201d \u201cAlles van die beste,\u201d greeted the crowd, and a cheer went up as the Minister and Mr. Wilcocks, both accompanied by their wives, stepped out. The gentlemen smilingly received flowers as buttonholes, while the ladies graciously accepted baskets of flowers presented by the women of Knysna and district.\nA martial note was lent to the proceedings by the presence of a company of cadets, the buglers of which sounded a welcome while the rest of the troop presented arms. After greeting the officers and inspecting the guard of honour, the Minister, accompanied by representatives of the community, proceeded to the specially erected platform at the end of the station.\nAmong the group on the dais were the Mayor of Knysna, Commander E.L. Ashley-Foakes, O.B.E., R.N,; Mr. H. van Hyssteen, M.P.C. (both of whom welcomed the Minister); Mr. C. Thesen, a well known citizen of Knysna; Mr. Brink, M.L.A.; Mr. Mileham, Town Clerk of Knysna; Mr. W.G.J. Hill, System Manager, S.A.R&H., Port Elizabeth: Mr. N.K. Prettejohn, the engineer who supervised the building of the line; and Mr. Walker, of the Harbour Advisory Board.\nReplying to the speeches of welcome, the Minister, who spoke both in Afrikaans and English, expressed thanks for the kind reception extended, and hoped that everything of the best would attend the people of the George-Knysna district. He then quoted figures and facts relative to the new line, and mentioned that the estimate had been considerably exceeded. He hoped, however, that every effort would be made to make the railway payable. The traffic already handled fell short of what had been promised, and he confidently looked to the industrial and farming community to give the officials plenty of traffic to keep them busy.\nMr. Malan then pointed out in what beautiful surroundings the line was laid, and considered that it would be the means of drawing increasing numbers of tourists to the area. \u201cYou are living in a paradise\u201d he said. \u201cMr. Wilcocks and I travelled in Europe recently, and I tell you that we South Africans have nothing to fear by comparison.\u201d\n\u201cWe do not know our country well enough,\u201d affirmed the Minister, reiterating the importance of developing tourist traffic. In this regard he appealed to the people of Knysna to establish a live publicity association and maintain a high standard of hotel accommodation. He would do everything possible to help them in bringing Knysna to the forefront. He would also direct the attention of the Director of Publicity in London, then in the Union, to the George Knysna district, so that when he returned to his office he would be in a position to speak with first-hand knowledge of the claims of the resorts along the new line.\nIn concluding his address, the Minister complimented the engineers and their assistants on their work, and in declaring the line open he wished all in the district every success.\nThree hearty cheers for the Minister and Mr. Wilcocks terminated the proceedings at the station, after which the party were the guests of honour at a luncheon given at the Royal Hotel.\nAfter his departure from Knysna, the Hon. C.W. Malan, accompanied by Mrs. Malan, took the opportunity of making a short halt at Deep Waals for the purpose of visiting a huge tree which is being preserved in that neighbourhood as a national monument. This forest giant, which has been named King Edward VII, bears a plate giving the following particulars: \u201cKING EDWARD VII.\u201d Height of bole, 70 feet. Full height, 137 feet. Contents, 1,720 cubic feet. Girth, 21 \u00bd feet. Large sleepers, 440. Age, approximately 1,500 years. Podocarpus elongata.

        "raw_content": "What You Didn't Know About the World Hereafter and How It Can Help You\nThe New York Times bestselling authors of Lessons from the Light offer a new and provocative understanding of heaven and how messages from the afterlife can assist you in the here and now.\nWe live in a world of near-universal acceptance that once our lives on the earth come to an end we continue to a greater world. Whether that destination is called \"Heaven,\" \"Nirvana,\" or simply \"The Other Side,\" tradition teaches us that there is, in most cases, a fairy-tale ending to life, a place where joy and harmony reigns supreme. Yet, as this book attests there is still more to heaven and earth than is dreamt of in our philosophies.\nGeorge Anderson is considered by many to be the greatest medium living today. After more than 50 years of hearing from souls who have transitioned to the world hereafter, he is constantly reminded by those who have passed that our preconceived notions of this life\u2014 and the next\u2014aren't always accurate. The nine stories in this book illuminate times when unusual circumstances such as sudden death, unresolved emotions, abusive relationships, and painful family dynamics, make it necessary for the dead and the living to find new doors to healing.\nIn session with Anderson, survivors and those who have passed meet again in encounters that are profound, bittersweet, highly-emotional and sometimes, downright, funny. What we learn is that there are little-known spiritual treasures\u2014and lessons to be learned\u2014about heaven and earth that can restore, revitalize, and make new what was once broken.\nLife Between Heaven and Earth is an inspiring, thought-provoking, path-changing work, one that affirms that no matter how complicated a circumstance is, resolution, peace and acceptance can be found in deep and remarkable ways.\nGeorge Anderson (Author)\nGEORGE ANDERSON is the first medium in history to appear regularly on a cable television show, the first medium to gain international exposure for his extraordinary ability, and the only medium to be cleared by Network Television Standards and Pra...\nMore about George Anderson\n<div><script src=\"https://www.overdrive.com/media/2537463/sample-embed?slug=life-between-heaven-and-earth\"></script></div>",

        "raw_content": "The Effect of Emotional Pain on Physical Pain\nPatients who suffer from emotional stress often also end up dealing with physical pain. Statistics show that people who underwent an event that led to psychology related issues such as post-traumatic stress disorder are at 15 percent to 30 percent higher risk of developing long-term physical pain.\nOne is said to be suffering from chronic pain when the physical pain lasts longer than what the process or injury normally allows. When you have chronic pain, moving becomes close to impossible. This leads to over-dependence on pain medication, which eventually can lead to addiction to pills, making the patient\u2019s state even worse.\nDuring a traumatic event such as a robbery, accident, natural calamity and other events, your nervous system goes into survival mode. Sometimes, the system will have a hard time reverting back to the normal mode. When this happens, stress hormones such as cortisol will be released on a regular basis. This triggers an increase in blood pressure and blood sugar levels. The immune system\u2019s ability to heal is greatly reduced and with time, the following physical symptoms start to manifest.\nTension headaches are the most common direct result of emotional stress. Research has shown that women are more prone to develop tension headaches than men and that between 30 percent and 80 percent of adults have suffered from these headaches at some point in their lives. The headaches normally result from tense muscles at the back of the head and neck. They create a lot of pain and pressure around the forehead, back of the head and neck region.\nMost people associate chest pain with heart disease and other issues related to cardiac health. However, a significant number of people go to the hospital complaining of stress-related chest pains. Men are more likely to suffer from stress-related chest pains when dealing with work stress. Women, on the other hand, are more likely to suffer from chest pains when dealing with anxiety and depression.\n3. Aches and pain all over the body\nWhen you have a stressful and hectic lifestyle, it takes a toll on your muscles. The pain normally affects the neck, shoulders and the lower back. Tense muscles seem to have an unclear effect on brain chemicals. When the body is stressed, it is unable to regulate inflammation, hence the aches and pains in different body parts.\nOther issues that result from emotional stress taking its toll on the body include reproductive health issues, damage to the teeth and jaws, hypertension, heart problems and chronic sickness.\nThe most effective way to relieve chronic aches and pains is by treating the cause of the stress. There are professional clinics where they deal with all types of pain from chronic pain, post-surgery pain and pain caused by previous accidents among others.\nA consultation at Pain Care Clinic of Idaho starts with you making a call to consult on the available options. These include Inter-X- therapy, Scrambler therapy, Medical acupuncture and other solutions. Seeking treatment is the first step towards a stress-free and happy life.",

        "raw_content": "St. Baldrick\u2019s Foundation: Jeremiah\u2019s Team\nBy Paramount February 14, 2017 February 22nd, 2018 PMC in the Community\nBy the time you finish reading this, another child somewhere in the world will be diagnosed with cancer. In the U.S. alone, about one in every 285 individuals will have cancer before they turn 20. Childhood cancer, which takes the lives of more U.S. children than any other disease, presents unique challenges for researchers. There are over a dozen types of childhood cancers and countless subtypes, some of which never strike after age 5 and others that occur most often in teenagers. Children are also susceptible to some adult cancers, but must be treated differently than adults. While many adult cancers are diagnosed early, 80% of childhood cancer has progressed before it is diagnosed. Treatments for children with cancer are harsh and uncomfortable; and more than 95% of survivors suffer from chronic health problems as adults, with 80% developing severe conditions.\nClearly, childhood cancer research is much needed, not only to seek cures, but also to prevent the suffering experienced during treatment, as well as the lifelong damage caused by treatment. Despite the need, only 4% of U.S. federal funding is solely dedicated to childhood cancer research and almost none of the funding from pharmaceutical companies goes toward children.\nThis is why the St. Baldrick\u2019s Foundation was formed. As the largest private funder of childhood cancer research grants, the mission of the St. Baldrick\u2019s Foundation is to find cures for childhood cancers and to provide survivors with long healthy lives. The organization focuses on funding the best, most scientifically promising research efforts. They have awarded over $200 million through 1060 grants in 27 countries since 2005.\nOne way the St. Baldrick\u2019s Foundation raises funds is through \u201cGo Bald\u201d head shaving events. \u201cShavees\u201d raise money and attend a volunteer-organized event; \u201cshavees\u201d go through an emotional process as they stand proudly bald with those who have lost their hair due to cancer treatment.\nParamount Mortgage Employee of the Month, John Brooks, recently heard about a coworker\u2019s boyfriend who will be a \u201cshavee\u201d at one of these events; and he is diligently working to raise money for Jeremiah\u2019s Team. Moved by the man\u2019s efforts, John chose Jeremiah\u2019s Team to receive a donation in his honor.\nJohn Brooks has been a part of the Paramount team for 20 years and 9 months, and serves as an accountant. His hard work and dedication to Paramount Mortgage Company has led to several Employee of the Month awards, and he continues to bring this level of commitment to the table on a daily basis. Thank you, John, for all you do, and thank you for choosing a worthy cause to support.",

        "raw_content": "GOLF: Barron is first to hit O.B. on drug test\nGolf has found its poster child for performance-enhancing drugs.\nAnd he is \u2026 Doug Barron?\nMonday, Barron \u2013 a 40-year-old journeyman \u2013 was suspended for one year for failing a random drug test.\nThe PGA Tour implemented its steroids policy in 2008, with the intent to eliminate drugs from golf.\nIn keeping with its standard operating procedure, the Tour didn\u2019t reveal what Barron took.\nWhether he took too much Airborne or female hormones, he\u2019s insignificant in the golf world, having played in only one PGA Tour event this season.\nBaseball has recently dominated the headlines in the steroid world. Frank Robinson \u2013 special assistant to Major League Baseball commissioner Bud Selig \u2013 said he\u2019s happy to see other sports following suit with drug-testing policies.\n\u201cI am very pleased about it,\u201d Robinson said in a telephone interview. \u201cIt\u2019s something we have to have. We have to show fans that it\u2019s clean and being played fairly on an even playing field for everyone. Golf has that now. You have to have it nowadays and players have to understand it.\u201d\nBarron has endured numerous health problems and missed the cut in his only PGA Tour appearance this year. His four other events were on the Nationwide Tour, which is akin to minor league baseball.\nBefore Monday, Barron earned his 15 minutes of fame in 2006 by taking off his shirt to hit out of a water hazard at the Transitions Championship in Florida.\nTelevision announcers at the time ripped him endlessly, saying he was \u201cobscene.\u201d They also wondered what happened to the Tour that someone looking like Barron was playing on it.\nAll Barron revealed was a mini-John Daly beer belly.\nIf Barron is doing drugs, they aren\u2019t helping.\nOnly a year before the shirt incident, he had two top-10 finishes.\nNot bad, but he hasn\u2019t been healthy enough or good enough since to keep his Tour card.\nThis guy doesn\u2019t even own the Web site www.dougbarron.com. That URL belongs to a New York-based actor who\u2019s probably got more cache than the golfer. And the actor will probably endure endless ridicule from his pals, too.\nBarron has endured several injuries, even chronicling them on a YouTube clip. He said he had a rib injury, a stress fracture in his foot and neck, and back injuries. It appeared to be a promotional bit for Meilus Muscular Therapy Inc.\nIt\u2019s possible Barron took a banned substance and didn\u2019t know it.\nThink this guy has a team of people around him dissecting labels on medication? He didn\u2019t earn a dime this season, with three missed cuts and a disqualification.\n\u201cI want my fellow Tour members and the fans to know that I did not intend to gain an unfair competitive advantage or enhance my performance while on tour,\u201d Barron said in a statement released by the Tour.\nHe also apologized.\nNo one might remember Barron\u2019s name, but how many would remember that Derrick Turnbow was the first Major League Baseball player to test positive for a banned substance?\nBarron\u2019s positive test might not have long-lasting effects, but it\u2019s a start.\nHall of Famer Robinson hits links for charity\nFrank Robinson can still swing a golf club, especially for charity.\nThe 74-year-old Hall of Famer is serving as host of Friday\u2019s MLB Urban Youth Academy golf tournament at the Pacific Palms Golf Resort.\nAngels general manager Tony Reagins, Rod Carew, Dusty Baker and other stars will participate in the event to help extend the impact of the academy in Compton.\n\u201cIt\u2019s had a tremendous impact on young inner-city kids in L.A.,\u201d Robinson said. \u201cIt\u2019s an outlet for them to come play baseball. They have professional coaches with tremendous experience. The program has also helped them work on their academics.\n\u201cIt\u2019s not just about baseball, it\u2019s about learning how to play the game. If the kids want to be groundskeepers, they\u2019ll teach them. Umpires come talk to them.\u201d\nThe year-round academy, part of MLB\u2019s Urban Youth Initiative, provides kids with free baseball and softball instruction and also offers clinics throughout Southern California.\nRobinson is a special assistant to MLB commissioner Bud Selig and is in New York for the World Series. If there\u2019s a Game 7, he won\u2019t have much time from the final out until Friday\u2019s 10:30 a.m. shotgun start.\nRobinson said he is proud to be associated with the Urban Youth Academy because of its impact on young children who otherwise might not have opportunities to play sports or begin thinking about a career.\nIn four years of the program, 28 players have been selected in baseball\u2019s draft. The annual golf tournament is a fund-raiser for the academy and helps provide programs and uniforms.\nRobinson said he hasn\u2019t played golf in three weeks, but he\u2019s looking forward to it. Asked how long he can drive the ball, Robinson exclaimed: \u201cI\u2019m 74!\u201d\n\u201cMy game isn\u2019t good. I\u2019m up and down,\u201d Robinson added. \u201cI play in spurts. Sometimes, I have to go a long time without playing.\u201d\nSouthern California\u2019s Whispering Lakes Golf Course won the McGladrey Team Championship, a best-ball amateur championship conducted by the PGA of America. The trio of Jim Erdman and Bill Minnis of Palmdale and Larry Metter of Valencia helped Whispering Lakes win last week\u2019s event at Pinehurst in North Carolina. \u2026 The Pat Tillman Charity Invitational, hosted by Scott Medlock, is Nov. 16. The golf tournament is at Malibu Country Club with a 10 a.m. shotgun start, and a concert featuring The Doors guitarist Robby Krieger is at 6 p.m. at the Canyon Club in Agoura Hills.

The PGA event with a $3 million purse historically has been played in August at Montreux Golf & Country Club on the edge of Mount Rose between Reno and Lake Tahoe. The new dates of July 15-18 announced on Tuesday put it opposite the American Century Celebrity Golf Championship at Edgewood Tahoe Golf Course at Stateline as well as the British Open being played next summer at St. Andrews.",

The area was expanded in April, meaning there is space for expansion and more facilities are now under construction.\nTorgeir Kjos S\u00f8rensen, commercial director at Avinor Oslo Airport, said, \u201cAfter fierce competition involving several bidders, it is with pleasure that we are able to announce that the new food outlet for passengers travelling to countries outside Schengen will be the Food Truck Festival. HMSHost-Umoe F&B Company submitted the most attractive bid, and we are sure that travelers will quickly become as convinced of this as we are.\n\u201cThe Food Truck Festival will bring something new and exciting to Oslo Airport that we have not seen there before. With its international nature, this concept is ideal for the non-Schengen Area, and will provide an excellent facility for the increasing number of travelers to and from these countries.\u201d\nPer Christensen, general manager for HMSHost-Umoe F&B Company, said, \u201cWe are extremely proud to introduce the Food Truck Festival at Oslo Airport. The concept has been inspired by street food markets all over the world, including Norway.\n\u201cThis is a new way of presenting and experiencing food and drink in the terminal, and we believe that this will add value to people\u2019s overall experience in Oslo Airport. We want to give people on the move a reason to spend more time in the airport before a flight \u2013 and a concept like the Food Truck Festival could make all the difference. We are delighted that Avinor has chosen us to develop such an innovative and exciting concept.\u201d\nThe Food Truck Festival is planned to open in November 2017.",

We began the year with our finances in reasonably good order with a small cash surplus, and with our membership in the nineties. We ended the year with well over 120 members, many being part of our new south-of-the-river group at Attwell, led by Deb Weber. It was good to see many new members at our Christmas Party and, as you will see from this newsletter, it was a great night and a successful and happy end to our year.\nWhat is now becoming an annual event in May \u2013 the Unframed Exhibition and Sale at the Floreat Forum \u2013 again proved popular with the general public, and added much-needed dollars to our finances. Many thanks to our tireless Vice President Rayma and her many helpers that made the day such a success. A reminder to start thinking now of some artwork for this year\u2019s event! Once again, it will be held on the Saturday before Mother\u2019s Day, at the Floreat Forum.\nOur highlight event, the Annual Exhibition and Sale at Sorrento went off without a hitch, thanks to the wonderful contributions from the Committee and all members who participated. Once, again, it was an exhibition that stood out for the outstanding quality of the paintings and the quality of the display and organisation. This event truly reflects the supportive culture that has come to typify the PSWA, something that all of you should be very proud of indeed! This year\u2019s Annual Exhibition will be held at Sorrento, on the weekend of the 20th 21st August \u2013 another one for the diary.\nYour committee has already been working towards making 2016 an eventful year for members. All preparations are now well in hand for the visit from Stan Sperlak in March, with venues organised for the workshops and pre-workshop tutorial, and a Monday demonstration by Stan for all members on 29th February.\nSo put it in your diary now for this not-to-be-missed evening! Those of you who are participating in these workshops will find an important update later in this newsletter. We do have a few places left \u2013 but they are filling quickly.\nA very big thank you to my close colleagues and friends who have worked tirelessly over the year to organise events, manage emails, finances and newsletters, and to all of you for your support and assistance. Let\u2019s look forward together to a year of successful artistic endeavours, and with much warmth and laughter.\nPastel Society of Western Australia Newsletter January 2016",

        "raw_content": "The Truth about Long-Acting Birth Control\nDr. Carrie Miles of Bridgeview Women\u2019s Health shares her expert insights on long-acting reversible contraception (LARC) and debunks common IUD myths.\nBy Sylvia Randall-Mu\u00f1oz 3/14/2016 at 9:56am\nIUDs and implants and shots, oh my! If you\u2019re feeling bamboozled by the myriad birth control options on the market, you\u2019re in luck. We talked to Dr. Carrie Miles MD, MPH of Bridgeview Women\u2019s Health\u2014a Bryn Mawr/Stanford/OHSU-educated obstetrician/gynecologist who currently serves as the Secretary of the Oregon Section of the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists\u2019 (ACOG)\u2014to help us break down common misconceptions about long-acting reversible contraception (LARC) methods like intrauterine devices and implants.\nYou may already be familiar with IUDs; they\u2019re small, T-shaped devices inserted into the uterus to prevent pregnancy. There are currently three types of hormonal IUDs available: Mirena and Lilletta, which both last up to five years, and the smaller Skyla, which lasts up to three. \u201cThey all have the same hormone,\u201d Dr. Miles explains. \u201cThey just differ in size, hormone dose, and how long they last.\u201d Paragard, the only non-hormonal IUD available, is made with copper and lasts up to 10 years. The contraceptive implant\u2014also considered a LARC\u2014is inserted under the skin in the upper arm and lasts for up to three years.\nAccording to a recent study, LARC use is on the rise: 12 percent of American women choose long-acting reversible contraception, including a whopping 42 percent of women\u2019s healthcare providers. And like many other contraception options, LARC is available for little or no cost through the Affordable Care Act. Still have questions? Read on.\nWho would be a good candidate for LARC?\nThere are very few restrictions for IUD or implant use; in fact, these methods can be safer than other methods like the pill for women with certain medical conditions, such as migraines or high blood pressure. These are great options for women [or anyone with a uterus] who don\u2019t want to have to think about their birth control on a daily, weekly or monthly basis. They can also be helpful for women with heavy and/or painful periods.\nWould you recommend IUDs to young women who have never had children?\nYes, absolutely! In fact, ACOG and the American Academy of Pediatrics recommend the IUD and the implant as first-line contraceptive methods for adolescents and young women. Skyla is the smallest IUD and was designed with young women in mind, but really any woman can safely use any of the IUDs.\nAlthough IUDs differ in the number of years of effectiveness, the key difference for most women is the effect they have on menstrual cycles. The hormonal IUDs and the implant make a woman\u2019s period much lighter and lessen cramps, and some women stop having their period while they are using these methods. Some women love the idea of not having a period, while others may be bothered by not having the monthly reminder that they aren\u2019t pregnant. With the copper IUD, a woman may experience heavier menstrual flow and more intense cramps.\nSome women may experience irregular bleeding or spotting with these methods. Most women do not experience mood changes or other bothersome side effects.\nHow do the hormonal IUDs work?\nAll the hormonal IUDs contain levonorgestrel, which is a progestin hormone released centrally in the uterus. Hormonal IUDs have the lowest amount of hormone for any progestin-only birth control\u2014lower than the implant, the \u201cmini\u201d pill, and the injection.\nIts main function is to stop sperm in their tracks so they can\u2019t get to the egg. It thickens cervical mucus, which traps sperm. It also makes the lining of the uterus very thin, which is how it helps women who have heavy periods.\nWhat harmful myths exist about IUDs and implants?\nThe most common misconception is that a woman needs to have had a baby before she can use an IUD. Another myth is that IUDs can cause infertility. There was a specific IUD available many years ago that was unfortunately responsible for pelvic infections and infertility; all the IUDs currently available have been redesigned and do not have any increased risk of infection or adverse effects on fertility.\nThe main misconception [about the implant] is that it causes weight gain. Though many contraceptive methods can cause a small change in weight, most women don\u2019t see any noticeable change.\nWhat are the efficacy rates of long term birth control compared to more traditional methods, like the pill?\nThe IUDs and the implant are more than 99 percent effective in preventing pregnancy. They are considered the most effective reversible contraceptives because they don't rely on a woman or couple to use them properly. Other methods, like the pill, patch, ring or injection, have very similar effectiveness if taken correctly and consistently.\nLong story short: IUDs and the implant are safe, highly effective, and affordable. If you\u2019re interested, talk to your doctor about your options\u2014and if it doesn\u2019t work for you, they are all reversible.\nOh, and one more thing: If you want to show your IUD pride, this Etsy shop has you covered.\nWomen's Health, Health, Body Talk",

        "raw_content": "For years I have been working with a number of rescue groups in Southern California\u2014not an easy task. It\u2019s very hard to say \u201cNO,\u201d to these groups who have only the noblest of intentions and the biggest of hearts; I, and my employees, are also real \u201csofties.\u201d I am, however, often forced to be practical when dealing with these groups, their rescued pets, and especially their enormous hearts. Though difficult, I often find myself trying to teach or advise them of the virtues of, as we like to call it, the \u201chard health\u201d mentality. Simplified, this means that, though difficult, we need to consider what might benefit the masses.\nSaving one vs. saving more\nGiven the hundreds, even thousands, of very healthy, adoptable dogs overcrowding our shelters: it may not be in the rescue group\u2019s best interest to spend hundreds, or even thousands of dollars on one very needy animal whose chances of survival are very slim. I often find myself asking the rescue group personnel: \u201cDo you have any idea how many healthy pets you could pull out of a shelter TODAY with the money you are about to spend on an animal with a poor chance of survival who will be very difficult to place into a home?\u201d I know it\u2019s tough, but we often need to face the facts and look at the \u201cbig picture.\u201d\nOne dog\u2019s will to survive\nWell, last week I broke my own rule\u2014initially not by choice, but by directive, and in the process I learned an important lesson about the \u201cwill to survive\u201d from my new friend, Henry.\nHenry, a roughly 4-year-old male American Eskimo dog, was found by a good Samaritan meandering in the streets of downtown Los Angeles. When the woman approached Henry to help him, she couldn\u2019t believe her eyes. Henry\u2019s neck was completely ripped open\u2014exposing layers of black, necrotic muscle and tissue; dried, necrotic, badly bruised skin; and multiple puncture wounds adjacent to and surrounding the gaping flesh. She coaxed Henry to her car, and drove him to the nearest animal shelter.\n[Editors Note: Photos of Henry\u2019s injuries and recovery are available. Be aware that these images are extremely graphic: Henry\u2019s presentation and recovery photos]\nOne of the shelter volunteers called one of the local rescue groups to see if there would be any interest in trying to save Henry. Henry\u2019s story, and, of course pictures, hit the circuit, and Henry ended up on my doorstep. What I saw was disgusting, and I was amazed Henry was still breathing. In addition to the obvious damage\u2014probably caused by aggressive dog bites, or possibly a coyote attack\u2014Henry had severe air emphysema around the injured area and we could even hear the air leaking out of his trachea and into surrounding tissue. We estimated that these wounds were at least a week old, probably older. He was truly suffering, and I didn\u2019t think it was fair to allow this.\nI spoke to the head of the rescue group, and advised her that it would be in poor Henry\u2019s best interest to put him out of his misery. Because, however, Henry was released to the rescue under the \u201cGood Samaritan\u201d rule, and since quite a bit of money was already raised on his behalf, she asked me to \u201cdo what I can.\u201d\nWell, not wanting to do anything half-way, we began aggressive treatment--IV fluids, IV antibiotics, pain medication, etc. and once Henry was a bit more stable, we anesthetized him to clean, debride (remove the dead and dying tissue), place drains, and suture what we could.\nAmazingly, his jugular vein and carotid artery were not damaged; we found and closed the substantial tear in his trachea. We cut away all the necrotic, infected tissue, and, on this first procedure (we knew there would be more), we were able to close about half of the huge defect. In the ensuing few days, Henry\u2019s condition improved\u2014he began to eat well and gained back much of his strength. He even began to like and trust us.\nSince he showed so much promise for recovery, we performed two more minor procedures to debride more dying and necrotic tissue and close even more of the large skin defect.\nNow, about 2 weeks later, he\u2019s almost ready to go to a new home\u2014and I have to say, the prospective adopters are lining up around the block. Thanks to the Internet and a group of amazing, loyal, caring rescue volunteers, Henry\u2019s story has been seen by countless pet lovers who would love to give this remarkable dog a forever home.\nWith all the sad, often hopeless cases we often have to deal with working in the rescue world, it\u2019s wonderful to have a dog like Henry cross our paths every once in a while to restore our faith in ourselves and to continue to give purpose to all of the enormous hearts out there.\nCaramel: An Amputee That Made Me a Cat Lover",

        "raw_content": "Glucosamine works better on knee pain than on back pain 07.2010\nGlucosamine works better on knee pain than on back pain\nBecause of differences in joints, the effect of glucosamine sulphate may vary for different parts of the body. According to a study from Oslo University Hospital glucosamine sulphate does not seem to have a significant effect on chronic lower back pain. But these results shouldn't discourage people who take glucosamine for other types of osteoarthritis, says the lead author on the study.\nWhile effective against osteoarthritis in the knee and hip, glucosamine sulphate may not be an ideal form of treatment for people with low back pain, according to a new study. This is likely because the joints in the spine are less mobile than the joints of the knee and hip, where frequent movement facilitates the exchange of active substances in the joint fluid.\n\u201cThe results of the study shouldn't discourage people who take glucosamine for other types of osteoarthritis. Because of differences in joints, glucosamine may act differently in other parts of the body, It's probably helping a lot of people with knee pain.\" - study lead author Philip Wilkens, Oslo University Hospital.\nThe study was done by a team from Oslo University Hospital in Norway, led by chiropractor Philip Wilkens. 250 patients with low back pain were examined in the study, all of them showing damage to the cartilage around part of the spine, a sign of osteoarthritis. In osteoarthritis, cartilage around the bone breaks down at the joint, causing swelling and pain and making it harder to move. Glucosamine has shown success in treating some kinds of osteoarthritis, notably in the knee and hip.\nImprovement for both glucosamine and placebo\nHalf of those patients were given a standard dose of glucosamine sulphate (1500 milligrams per day) and the other half were given placebo pills, but neither group knew which treatment they had. Patients took the pills for six months. Both the glucosamine and placebo was provided by Pharma Nord.\nAt the beginning of the study and again after six months, the patients filled out questionnaires about their pain. Another six months after the study ended, patients were asked about their pain once more. In their evaluations, both patients taking glucosamine and those taking a placebo reported fewer problems related to their back pain than they had at the beginning.\nHowever, there was no difference based on what pills they had been taking - people on the placebo improved just as much as people on glucosamine, according to the report, which is published in the Journal of the American Medical Association.\nPart of the improvement in patients' pain might have happened because all patients were allowed to get other treatment during the study. The rest of the improvement could be because of the placebo effect, according to Wilkens.\nStill effective against knee pain\nThe results of the study shouldn't discourage people who take glucosamine for other types of osteoarthritis. Because of differences in joints, glucosamine may act differently in other parts of the body, It's probably helping a lot of people with knee pain,\" Wilkens told Reuters Health.\nSOURCE: Journal of the American Medical Association, online July 6, 2010.",

        "raw_content": "My student was messing around with the bunsen burner when he noticed the following. He had put a wire gauze on top of the burner before turning the gas on. When he used the lighter on the bottom portion i.e. below the wire gauze, a flame was only visible at that portion but not above the wire gauze. When he used the lighter on the portion above the wire gauze, the flame only appeared on the top portion but not the bottom portion! Why?\nWhat a great observation! I shall have to show this to my students and see what they think about it! In all my years of teaching I have never even thought of this. Even more surprising, neither have any of my thousands of students!\nWell, what could it be about the wire gauze that might explain this wonderful event? Wire is a great heat sink! So, think about why a gas burns. It has to have enough thermal energy to begin the chemical reaction. If you light the gas below the gauze the lighter provides the energy to begin the burning. But the gauze takes away the thermal energy that would otherwise be there to ignite the gas above the gauze. If you light the gas above the gauze the same thing happens. Either way, the gauze, acting as a heat sink, removes the thermal energy from the system so that the temperature above or below it is not sufficient to ignite the gas.\nI hope that if you see this or a better answer to this question, that you will challenge your students to think about the properties of the wire gauze and the necessary components that must be present for a gas to burn. See if any of them can come up their own answer. Their Joy of Discovery is priceless! It is also, as you well know, far more memorable than simply reading the answer provided by someone else!",

        "raw_content": "Why are all stars yellow?\nAsked by: Tony G.\nAs a matter of fact, all stars are not yellow. They appear \"yellow-white\" to a human eye because of the very dark-black background of the sky. And also because in the obscurity, the human eye does not use the same detectors to see than in the day light. In the day light our eyes are sensible to the colors and can distinguish between them, while in the dark / the night, we see mostly in \"black and white\". However, if you observe the sky at night, once your eyes are accustomed to obscurity, and in a very transparent and starry night (in the mountains, far from cities, dust and artificial lights), you will notice that some stars have a red glow (such as Arcturus), some have a blue glow (such as Vega). The color of a star is an indication of its temperature and somehow its age: Arcturus is a \"Red giant\", rather old star with a 'cold' (3000 to 4000 \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdCelsius) surface, while Vega is a very young and very hot star (more than 10000 \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdC at its surface).\nAnswered by: Benoit Compte, M.S., Consultant, Paris, France",

        "raw_content": "How AirBnB Thrives on User Generated Content\nMillennials spend 30% of their media time (5 hours/day) engaged with user-generated content (UGC). Coincidently, this is the same generation that drives AirBnB\u2019s success in the sharing economy. Triangulate that with Instagram\u2019s user demographics \u2013 55% of online adults between ages 18 to 29 \u2013 and we can see why AirBnB actively deploys user-generated content in its digital and social media marketing efforts.\n77% of content posted by AirBnb in Q4 of 2016 on Instagram was user-generated content and the results are not surprising \u2013 80% of AirBnB\u2019s Instagram engagement is driven by user generated content.\nIn less than a decade since its launch, AirBnB marketing has taken over the travel and hospitality industry, becoming the third-largest online accommodation seller worldwide, according to Phocuswright. AirBnB\u2019s secret to success is staying personal and understanding its target audience, which helps them to build its loyal community. The company often talks about the importance of social media in building its community.\n\u201cYour community, your customers, are the best marketing asset you have\u201d\n\u2013 James McClure, \u200eGM Northern Europe at Airbnb.\nEarned content is an indispensable tool in a marketer\u2019s arsenal to build and grow their social media communities, mainly because it provides a rich new storytelling opportunity for marketers to tell their brand story and build a more trusting relationship with the consumer.\nAccording to various studies, over half (51%) of Americans trust user-generated content more than other information on a company website and claim that it influences what they buy and where they buy it from. Other research adds that 43% of people are more likely to purchase a new product when they have learned about it through social channels or from friends and family.\nUsing UGC in its content strategy has not only helped AirBnB drive engagement with its audience, but it has also helped to grow its Instagram community by over 13%. This might look like a small increase, but with the huge base AirBnB already has, it translates to over 172K followers added in the data period.\nRegramming UGC on Instagram gives AirBnB a huge body of excellent pictures from the world over to share with its audience, pictures that speak to the brand\u2019s values and showcase the unique homes, experiences, and places around the world. This does not only encourage followers to explore new places to stay, it also motivates them to create content worthy of being shared with others and to interact with Airbnb as a brand.\nIn Q4 2016, AirBnB mainly asked for its users permission to regram their pictures. In the past, they have run contests to encourage photo submissions from their audience.\nFive of the top ten Instagram posts by AirBnB in Q4 2016 were regrams, including the second most engaging post shown below.\nWhen it comes to creating content for your marketing, it is now more important than ever to collaborate with your audience to improve the quality of the earned content, and to create opportunities for conversations. Such measures can help build relationships and inspire trust, which go a long way in terms of strengthening partnerships between brand and their Instagram communities.\nTripti Shrivastava\nTripti Shrivastava is a Digital Marketing Manager at Simply Measured.

        "raw_content": "Ex-Clinton aide makes mystery bid for California governor\nDemocrats are scratching their heads over Amanda Renteria's silent run. Some suggest there are ulterior motives.\nBy DAVID SIDERS and CARLA MARINUCCI\nFormer top Hillary Clinton campaign aide Amanda Renteria's filing for the gubernatorial race comes less than four months before the June primary. | Jacquelyn Martin/AP Photo\nLOS ANGELES \u2014 Amanda Renteria, a former top Hillary Clinton campaign aide who baffled Democrats recently when she filed paperwork to run for California governor, still isn\u2019t talking.\nIn the days since filing, Renteria made no campaign announcement, and she is not returning reporters\u2019 calls. She\u2019s raised no money and has no apparent political apparatus \u2014 a bizarre campaign opening more characteristic of a fringe candidate than a political professional.\nUp and down California, Democrats spent the week scratching their heads \u2014 or suggesting ulterior motives.\n\u201cIt doesn\u2019t make any sense,\u201d said Garry South, a longtime Democratic strategist who advised former Gov. Gray Davis. \u201cYou don\u2019t run for governor of California in four months. The state is too big, the race for governor is far too expensive, and you particularly don\u2019t do it when you are a complete unknown, you have no money, you have no campaign kitty, and you don\u2019t even have a website or a Facebook page.\u201d\nIn Renteria\u2019s case, South added, \u201cYou have no staff, you have no consultants, you have no endorsements and you don\u2019t even put out a press release.\u201d\nRenteria, a former aide to Sens. Dianne Feinstein and Debbie Stabenow, gained prominence in political circles as national political director of Clinton\u2019s 2016 campaign. But Renteria is not widely known in California, and her last bid for elected office, in a House contest in 2014, ended in bruising defeat. Rep. David Valadao that year trounced Renteria by more than 15 percentage points in her effort to dislodge the Republican from his Central Valley seat.\nRenteria\u2019s filing for the gubernatorial race comes less than four months before the June primary, and she will start far behind a large field of more prominent Democrats who have been courting activists, securing endorsements and raising millions of dollars for more than a year.\nIf it wasn\u2019t for her political pedigree, it\u2019s likely no one would have even paid attention to her bid.\nDemocrats familiar with Renteria said she could be seeking to build name recognition for a future, more credible, run for statewide office, while supporters of former Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa, one of two leading Democratic candidates for governor, feared her candidacy could undercut his support among Latinos and voters in the Central Valley.\nDean Florez, a former Democratic state senator, called Renteria a \u201cspoiler,\u201d writing on Twitter, \u201cCompletely saddened by this development. If you are running for Governor, announce 6 months ago, attend the debates, hold a press conference with your supporters & speak directly to the press.\u201d\nMike Madrid, a Republican consultant working with Villaraigosa, said on KQED\u2019s \u201cPolitical Breakdown\u201d podcast Thursday that \u201csomething just doesn\u2019t smell right with what happened. ... We know something else is afoot. ... You don\u2019t run for office and file 30 days out [before the filing deadline] with no endorsement, no infrastructure and no campaign website.\u201d\nAsked whether Renteria is a stalking-horse for Gavin Newsom, the Democratic lieutenant governor, who\u2019s leading in the polls, Madrid said, \u201cI think the dots are there. \u2026 I think it was sloppy all the way around.\u201d\nNewsom spokesman Dan Newman dismissed the accusation of collusion as the political equivalent of a \u201ctinfoil-covered grassy knoll.\u201d In an email, he added, \u201cNot to mention it\u2019s severely sexist for team Antonio [Villaraigosa] to paint an accomplished woman as the naive rube manipulated by a bunch of dudes.\u201d\nRenteria said in a message to POLITICO on Twitter, \u201cI\u2019ll be in touch next week.\u201d\nWomen candidates hit a wall in California\nNews of Renteria\u2019s candidacy first emerged as if by accident, when the California Target Book\u2019s Rob Pyers noticed her filing with the secretary of state\u2019s office, tweeting, \u201cWell this is interesting ... Hillary Clinton's 2016 National Political Director has apparently filed to run for California Governor.\u201d\nA top aide to state Attorney General Xavier Becerra, Renteria immediately became unreachable. She said on Twitter, \u201cFor questions coming in right now: I am still serving as the Chief of Operations at the California Department of Justice.\u201d But just hours later, Becerra\u2019s office confirmed she was stepping down from her post.\nIn a note to colleagues later posted on Medium, Renteria thanked employees of Becerra\u2019s office for \u201ccaring so deeply about the people of California and the sanctity of our justice system.\u201d She did not mention her campaign.\n\u201cI know nothing,\u201d said Eric Bauman, chairman of the California Democratic Party. \u201cAmanda certainly has my phone number, and she didn\u2019t call me and didn\u2019t tell me.\u201d\nRenteria\u2019s candidacy comes too late for her to compete for the state party\u2019s endorsement, and she will not be offered a speaking spot at the party\u2019s upcoming convention in San Diego, Bauman said.\n\u201cThe program is done, and there\u2019s not a free minute in it,\u201d he said.\nBauman added, \u201cI have no intel on what she\u2019s thinking, what her plan is, who\u2019s running her race. I\u2018ve known her for a long time, and we talked at least once a week during the many, many months of the Clinton campaign \u2026 I don\u2019t know what her mission is here.\u201d\nRepublicans race to reverse midterm recruitment failures\nRenteria drew support from prominent Democrats in her 2014 House run, including EMILY\u2019s List and the Latino Victory Project. Then-Vice President Joe Biden campaigned alongside her. Following Clinton\u2019s defeat, she has spoken publicly about the importance of electing women to public office.\nAlthough the field of candidates running to succeed Gov. Jerry Brown is large, only one candidate other than Renteria, Delaine Eastin, is a woman. Eastin, a former state schools chief, has struggled to raise money and is languishing in public opinion polls.\nEastin shrugged off Renteria\u2019s entry into the race, saying, \u201cThe more the merrier.\u201d But she added, \u201cThe best public policy comes from people who have worked in public policy. ... It puts you at a disadvantage if you have never run for public office in California.\u201d\nOn Friday, Renteria\u2019s voicemail was full. Bob Mulholland, a longtime Democratic strategist in California, said Renteria\u2019s candidacy is \u201cstrange, unless she has won the Publishers Clearing House [sweepstakes] this month.\u201d\nHowever, he said, \u201cIt may be that she sees \u2026 2018 will be the year of the woman, and it may be that she\u2019s looking at getting more coverage and running for something else down the road.

        "raw_content": "An in-depth look into our philosophy behind our website design and development ideals and practices. 2016-04-20T10:47:00-04:00\nCompany websites are tools more than anything else. Sure, they can be used as mere placeholders, but that is just a fraction of their potential. Websites provide the opportunity to refine your first impression to a client. They can have their message improved over time and updated to suit the needs of a company.\nGenerally speaking designing the website is separate from developing it. Design is the culmination of research performed beforehand. Usually, a process called \u201cdiscovery\u201d takes place in which the client is asked about the sites\u2019 purpose in the customer\u2019s business. Ultimately it is the client\u2019s needs that drive the sites\u2019 requirements.\nWhen the requirements are sussed out, the design begins starting with the wireframe. A wireframe is nothing more than a \u201cskeleton\u201d of the site that gives a high-level overview of the sites\u2019 pages and navigation. If the site will have some sophisticated functionality, this is potentially where that functionality will have its first mockup. Wireframes have no visuals nor should they. Their purpose is to isolate the functionality of the site.\nAll of this discovery and refinement helps to ensure that the product not only meets the clients\u2019 needs but that it can be developed within a defined scope and budget. Alterations made to the visuals or, to a larger extent, the functionality, can take lots of time later on. Consider discovery the allegory to \u201cmeasure twice, cut once.\u201d\nSoftware architecture can be decided upon, and visuals can finally begin to take shape.\nNow everyone starts to get excited. Humans are very visual when it comes to projects and seeing the designs tends to alleviate some agita. During the refinement of the visuals inevitably the project requirements will be updated. It is to be expected. There\u2019s something about having visuals in front of you that helps to see the process through the eyes of the user. In that regard, this is why we use a development system known as agile development. It is a developmental process characterized by repeated refinement of the requirements over the course of the project.\nOn the other end of the project, the software will be taking shape. Usually, for a website a starting CMS (content management system) will be decided upon and modifications will be made to the CMS in regards to the requirement. The ultimate goal in deciding on one CMS or programming language over another is to minimize the need for modifications while still adhering the clients\u2019 standards and overall technology environment. At this point, this is also where test servers will be set up, and the details on the production server will be nailed down.\nThe marrying of the approved designs and the CMS architecture is known as front-end development. Now the final product begins to take shape. This is also where testing begins in earnest and the delivery date is confirmed. If required this is also when the client\u2019s team will be trained on the use of the system.\nAs the project winds down and the delivery is on the horizon decisions are made regarding ongoing support and handoffs. Typically the relationship continues in some way after the project\u2019s completion.",

        "title": "How Does Coating Help To Protect Metals From Corrosion?",
        "raw_content": "How Does Coating Help To Protect Metals From Corrosion?\nMajor Properties That Initiates Corrosion\nCorrosion is the major problem that occurs on metal due to different environmental conditions. The three conditions that initiate corrosion includes metal surface, moisture and an electron acceptor. These are the prime factors due to the amalgamation of which corrosion initiates. By removing any of the factors from the mentioned three can helps to stop the process of corrosion.\nHow can metals be protected from corrosion?\nMetals can be protected by applying a negative charge or by applying a coat or anodizing. One of the useful procedure which helps to protect the metals from corrosion is Coating. The coating helps to eradicate the direct contact of metals with humidity. Therefore, its is essential for the manufacturers in metal industries to coat or paint the metals with high-quality of paints so that premium quality of material with long working life can be delivered to the customers.\nHow do the coatings get corroded?\nBut on the other hand, the coating and paints also get corroded after a period of time when they continuously remain in contact with humidity, moisture or other wet working conditions Hence, high-quality corrosion resistant coatings and metals are required. To test the quality and corrosion resistance strength of the metals, high-quality corrosion test chambers are utilized by the manufacturers of paint and metal industries. These chambers help to check the resistant properties of the paints, coating and metals.\nBest Substrate used for Coating to Remove Corrosion?\nThe stainless steel material is widely used in automotive industries and in domestic sectors due to the corrosion resistant properties of the metals. Stainless steels contain more than 10.5 percent of chromium content in it. Corrosion resistance strength is an essential property which is required by the manufacturers and suppliers to test before using S.S. materials or metal sheets. The corrosion test chambers are used to perform accelerated corrosion test in Salt Fog Cabinets. The test procedure is one of the oldest processes which is used to check the resistance properties of the surface coatings. The test has numerous advantages and helps to test multiple materials.\nHow to identify the resistance of surface coatings corrosion?\nThe questions are significant especially for the manufacturers of spring, fasteners or electronic goods. The researchers and technicians of industrial laboratories make use of high-quality of metals such as stainless steel for the surface coating to protect the quality of final products from corrosion. But now the question arises that how long the coating will survive in wet working or humid environmental conditions on the substrate? This can be tested by making use of salt fog chambers to ascertain the actual working life of the products.\nKey Benefits of Corrosion Test Chambers\nThe corrosion test chambers or salt spray chambers are used to test the corrosion resistance properties of the metals and coated surfaces and helps to predict the durability and life cycle of that specific coating. It is a reliable test method and offers several benefits to the manufacturers of metals and coatings.\nIt is an effective and affordable test method as compared to other corrosion resistance test performances between competing systems.\nAny type of metal samples that can be tested in the chambers irrespective of the size and shape.\nThe salt concentration which is provided to create salt fog environment in the chambers acts as an electrolyte and inspection is performed at regular intervals to check the properties of corrosion.\nThe temperature can be set up to 45 degree Celsius, and test procedure can be examined due to the transparent Plexiglas material cover which is provided on the top of the machine.\nThe test helps to determine the number of years the surface coating will survive to protect the quality of the products against corrosion.\nWith so much of benefits, Salt Fog Cabinets are considered as the best lab testing machine as it creates actual environmental conditions inside the testing laboratories and helps to evaluate the actual working life of the metals, paints and coatings. The device is also used for paint treatments, chemical treatments and tests the resistance strength of metallic sheets that are duly coated with paints or coatings.\nSalt Fog Chambers by Presto\nPresto Stantest offers a wide range of corrosion test chambers that complies with internationals standards such as ASTM, ISO, BIS and many more. These are highly sophisticated chambers that are designed keeping in mind the testing requirements of different users for different test applications. The test equipment is fitted with glass wool insulation that ensures reliable and accurate test results. The air pressure inside the chamber is created using air flow meter to create an even temperature throughout the chamber. The rate of air pressure lies between 0 to 30 psi. The chamber is covered with the air jacket heating system that creates an even temperature throughout the test procedure. It is a widely used test machine which is used in testing laboratories for doing comparison testing. It offers direct visual observation of sample is possible on the cover.\nApplications of Corrosion Test Chambers\nCorrosion Test Chamber is an effective testing machine which is used in a large number of industries all across the globe such as Automotive Components, aircraft, industrial sector, military equipment.\nFor more information on Corrosion Test Chambers, contact our experts.",

        "title": "Interview with Director of Itzhak Perlman documentary - Primo Artists",
        "raw_content": "Longtime friend Alan Alda makes a cameo in the documentary on Itzhak Perlman\n(Photo credit: Voyeur Films)\nINTERVIEW: Director Alison Chernick on The World Premiere Of \u201cItzhak\u201d At Hamptons International Film Festival\nOpening night of the 25th anniversary of the Hamptons International Film Festival (HIFF) will launch with Alison Chernick\u2019s documentary Itzhak, which chronicles the extraordinary life and music of Itzhak Perlman, who is widely considered one of the world\u2019s greatest living violinists.\nWe recently caught up with Chernick about the film, Itzhak Perlman, who will be in attendance at the Guild Hall screening, and more.\nPrior to filming, how much about Itzhak\u2019s life did you know?\nAC: I knew a lot. Maybe I didn\u2019t know the intricacies or nuances, but I certainly was very well abreast of his music and who he was, but I certainly got to know him better in this process.\nHow long did you follow the Perlmans?\nAC: The first shoot was the Medal of Freedom shoot in November of 2015 and I followed him through last summer and we started editing in the fall. So, about a year in the life of. At one point the film was going to be called Four Seasons and it was going to cover him in different seasons.\nWhy did you feel that this was a film that needed to be made?\nAC: It was his 70th year so it was sort of a perfect year and great timing and as his wife Toby said: \u201cWe\u2019re not young, we\u2019re not old.\u201d So it was right in terms of their energy level and he\u2019s a different person than he was in his late 30s when there was another film made about him, so there was really not a doc made about him in any time recent. As his artistry grew and his confidence grew, it\u2019s great to capture him at that moment in time.\nWhat was your reaction when you learned the film had been selected as Hamptons International Film Festival\u2019s Opening Night film?\nAC: We were super excited for a documentary, especially one on a classical musician, to be opening night. I think in most of the cases they show narrative, so we felt sort of extra rewarded that they were supporting a documentary, being an advocate, that ours was chosen. Its Itzhak\u2019s home away from home, so it really felt like the perfect fit. We\u2019re very excited.\nThis will also mark the film\u2019s world premiere.\nAC: We just finished it too. So it\u2019s hot off the presses \u2013 Friday night at 9 p.m. we delivered it. We were in sound mix all week, so the timing is perfect.\nIt seemed like Itzhak was an open book about his life. Was there anything he was hesitant to talk about?\nAC: No. He was pretty open. I think with Toby there we were able to go a bit deeper emotionally. We created a conversation between the two of them and that really helped bring out some of the deeper emotional levels. He\u2019s open with politics, but we didn\u2019t go so deep into that. We were filming right around Hillary and Trump and we sort of avoided that. He wasn\u2019t so hesitant to do anything \u2013 we stayed away from hardcore politics because we felt like it would sidetrack the film and divert the attention away from what I was trying to show.\nSince Itzhak is so prolific, was it a struggle to find a balance to make classic music more relatable to the audience?\nAC: I think that when you\u2019re really exploring and dissecting the artist behind the music, you\u2019re opening up a new window or lens into the music itself and the musical world that they inhabit. If anything, it made it more relatable by getting to know the person creating it \u2013 the man behind this beautiful sound. Through the process of being with him and unpacking how he thinks about the world I think we gained more access into his music and I think his music really comes from his heart and his soul. There\u2019s an abundance of humanity that he has and it\u2019s through that humanity that he plays every note. President Obama said: \u201cYou can hear his soul when he plays the violin.\u201d\nSpeaking of President Obama, there\u2019s quite a few cameos from notable names like Billy Joel and Alan Alda. With all the archival footage you had, how did you decide what to include?\nAC: The story kind of ends up telling itself in many ways and it dictates what the scene needs. For example, the Billy Joel scene for us was a way to showcase his collaborative personality and his confidence \u2013 I think he asserts his own ideas in that scene. It is also Billy Joel, so it\u2019s not exactly his milieu of what he\u2019s used to playing and it shows his range and diversity. Alan Alda and Itzhak are old friends and they were able to get into a conversation about polio, so you get some of the history in and some of his physical challenges, and they talk about technique and their expertise and their craft. So, you have a parallel in another field. The award, especially at a time where the world has changed so much since the beginning of the film, it just felt imperative to include Barack Obama who we\u2019re all fans of and hearing his words is so great after the president that we have now who can barely string a sentence together.\nAfter seeing the film, is there anything you hope the audience takes away?\nAC: That brilliant and complicated people can also be quite normal, really getting to know this genius musician and that he\u2019s just like all of us. Really, I think that for that level of musician, Itzhak talks about how you really have to have this sound in your head and he from a very early age had this sound in his head that he was able to develop from hearing it. That was an interesting comment on art and artistry and music \u2013 that it really comes from within. You have the sound and you follow the sound.\nAC: I have a couple of projects. I have a narrative project I\u2019m working on, I have a contemporary art project that I\u2019m working on. So, those two things are keeping me busy.\nFor complete interview, click here.",

        "raw_content": "Studies of 'amorphous ice' reveal hidden order in glass\nImage courtesy of Fausto Martelli et al.\nA new study challenges the notion that the atomic structure of glass is indistinguishable from that of a liquid\u00ad \u00ad\u2014 at least for a certain kind of glass called \"amorphous ice\" that forms when water is cooled to very low temperatures.\nIn the study, researchers at Princeton University and the City University of New York used computer simulations to show that the water molecules in amorphous ice are arranged in a previously undetected order, which the original liquid did not contain. The finding, published Sept. 29 in the journal Physics Review Letters, may help explain water\u2019s curious, life-giving properties. It also challenges the very definition of what it means to be a glass.\nGlasses are typically made by cooling a liquid rapidly, and, according to current understanding, a glass inherits the order that was present in the original liquid. In the case of amorphous ice, however, as the liquid water cools, a new and orderly arrangement of molecules emerges.\n\"According to our results, these types of glass are not simply frozen liquids \u2014 this picture doesn\u2019t hold anymore,\" said Fausto Martelli, an associate research scholar in the Department of Chemistry at Princeton. \"We are essentially saying that a notion that scientists have believed for many years is partially wrong.\"\nPrior to this study, researchers knew that the rapid freezing of water, which can occur at the extremely cold temperatures found in outer space, leads to the formation of a very different material than the ice of everyday experience. This material, known as amorphous ice, lacks regular ice\u2019s highly ordered crystalline structure, leading scientists to categorize it as a glass \u2014 a liquid whose movement has slowed to a glacial pace. Amorphous ices are not common on Earth, but they are the most abundant form of water in the universe.\nIn the study, researchers at Princeton University and the City University of New York used computer simulations to show that the water molecules in amorphous ice are arranged in a previously undetected order, which the original liquid did not contain.\nShown above are representative snapshots of the compression of hexagonal ice to high-density amorphous ice. Blue and red spheres represent different local environments of water molecules based on their local order: blue for ordered, hexagonal ice-like environments and red for disordered, high-density amorphous-like environments. Left panel: sample of hexagonal ice at high pressure (before the phase transition). Middle panel: phase transition between hexagonal ice and high-density amorphous ice. Right panel: sample of high-density amorphous ice.\nThe new study found that the molecules in these amorphous ices arrange into a previously undetected internal pattern. This pattern, known as disordered hyperuniformity, is defined as order across large spatial distances even when there is no order across short distances. Disordered hyperuniform materials fall somewhere between a crystal, which is highly organized over long distances, and a liquid, which is only ordered over short distances.\n\u201cThe existence of these large-scale structural correlations has not been fully appreciated, and that is really what we wanted to address in this study,\u201d said study co-author Salvatore Torquato, a professor of chemistry who, with Princeton senior scientist Frank Stillinger, first identified hyperuniformity more than a decade ago (Physical Review E, 2003). \u201cThe information present in these systems is quite striking, and leads to completely new insights about materials,\u201d he said. He and his colleagues have since identified hyperuniformity in a number of places, including the arrangement of cells in a chicken\u2019s eye (Physical Review E, 2014).\nIn addition to Martelli and Torquato, the study authors included Roberto Car, Princeton\u2019s Ralph W. *31 Dornte Professor in Chemistry, and Nicolas Giovambattista, an associate professor at Brooklyn College-The City University of New York. Torquato and Car are associated with the Princeton Institute for the Science and Technology of Materials.\nTo explore the internal structure of amorphous ices, Martelli used a computer model that tracks the behavior of over 8,000 water molecules to simulate what would happen if he cooled the water down to about 80 degrees Kelvin (about -316 degrees Fahrenheit). At this temperature, water molecules are so deprived of heat that they can no longer move from place to place, nor rotate in place. At this temperature and below, the researchers observed the hyperuniform pattern emerge in the data from the computer simulation.\n\u201cWe are not used to looking for order on such large length-scales,\u201d Martelli said. \u201cHowever, mathematics allows us to shed light on patterns that our eyes are not able to see.\u201d\nThe simulations required months of time on high-performance research computers, including Princeton University\u2019s TIGRESS clusters through the Princeton Institute for Computational Science and Engineering.\nThe simulation enabled the researchers to ask questions about the nature of water, which has many anomalous behaviors that make it uniquely suited to supporting life. One such anomaly is that the crystalline form of ice is less dense than liquid water, allowing ice to float, which in turn allows life to exist under the ice in lakes and oceans.\nOne possible explanation for water\u2019s anomalies is that, at very cold temperatures, water may come in two liquid phases \u2014 one denser than the other \u00ad\u00ad\u2014 rather than just the one liquid state we find familiar. Detecting the transition of water between the high-density and low-density forms has proven elusive due to technical challenges.\nThe current study provides indirect support for the existence of the two forms, at least in computer simulations. Giovambattista simulated the application of high pressure to the model and observed that the pressure converted the low-density form of amorphous ice into a high-density form. The transition between the two forms of amorphous ice is consistent with the existence of two liquid forms of water.\nUnderstanding the long-range order present in amorphous materials is an active area of study because harnessing hyperuniformity could lead to practical applications. The hyperuniformity present in amorphous silicon may enable new ways to tune electronic properties. The ability to manipulate a material\u2019s hyperuniform long-range order may help scientists build stronger ceramics or longer-lasting glasses.\nAmorphous ices can be produced in laboratory settings, Martelli said, and it may be possible to find evidence of hyperuniformity in these experiments.\nThe study was funded by the U.S. Department of Energy grant DE-SC0008626 and the National Science Foundation grant DMR-1714722.\nFamiliar yet strange: Water's 'split personality' revealed by computer model\nForget the freezer: Research suggests novel way to control water behavior",

        "raw_content": "2018 Porsche 718 Cayman vs. 2018 Chevrolet Corvette\nCar shoppers in Lawrenceville New Jersey know how important it is to consider the name behind the makers of luxury car brands they are eyeing to purchase. Porsche and Chevrolet are among the most popular choices because they have already established their presence in the car industry. When you happen to be comparing the 2018 Porsche 718 Cayman with that of the 2018 Chevrolet Corvette, it pays to know why one stands out over the other. We can help you decide with this comparison.\nThe modern and stylish exteriors of both the 2018 Porsche Cayman and the 2018 Chevrolet Corvette will truly be one of the reasons why it will be very easy to love any of these two cars. But there are things that need to be taken to account before saying you are getting the car of your dreams.\nIn the case of the Chevrolet Corvette, you will find out how it has been gifted with interiors made from great quality materials. However, there are a lot that has been compromised with this new addition to the family of Chevys. One is the fact that it has sacrificed outside visibility and the other is the fact that you will find it difficult entering and exiting the car.\nThe cabin of the 2018 Porsche 718 Cayman is solid in terms of construction. Materials are truly impeccable and not just stylish but also of excellent grade. The ride, all in all, is truly comfortable and classy plus it is also spacious enough to give passengers a really awesome time.\nGifted with the MyLink infotainment system, the same infotainment system that runs in almost all car models from Chevrolet, you will definitely find it thrilling to drive the 2018 Chevrolet Corvette. The system is functional and easy to use. There is also a blind spot monitoring system in this car which is somehow given in order to make up with problems in terms of outward visibility. Nonetheless, it has to be pointed out that the Chevy lacks safety aids even in its most basic trim level.\nWhen it comes to the 2018 Porsche 718 Cayman, nothing is compromised technology and safety wise. The infotainment system is the easiest to use in its class and it is as if that is not enough, you will be fascinated with the advanced driver safety aids found in it.\nDo not be surprised with the engine performance difference between these two cars because the Corvette runs on a V8, 6.2-liter engine. With that, total output reaches up to 460lb-ft of torque and 455 horsepower. Meanwhile, the 2018 Porsche 718 Cayman produces a total output of 280lb-ft of torque and 300 horsepower which is not bad at all for a four-cylinder, 2.0-liter engine.",

Some causes could be trauma, stress, muscles, or neurologic to name a few. The major complaints arise from the temporal mandibular joint (TMJ) or patients that suffer from chronic headaches.\nHeadaches can be classified into two major groups of a migraine and tension-type. Usually, tension-type affect both sides of the head whereas a migraine usually affects just one side. Migraine headaches can be either episodic or chronic with the distinction of having more than 15 in a month specifically on one side. These can be extremely painful and debilitating. These can also have an aura, which is a spacey feeling. Usually, migraine headaches are aggravated by noise and light, worsen with exertion, and may have a pulsating feeling. In a majority of cases, migraine headaches are caused by a trigger point in the head and neck because due to muscle tension. These can be treated in a number of ways in our office ranging from cold therapy to using Botox to relieve the cause of the problem, which can be a life-changing therapy for those that suffer.

        "raw_content": "California AG\u2019s Spokesman Resigns After Caught Taping Phone Conversations\nLoaded on April 15, 2010 by Michael Brodheim published in Prison Legal News April, 2010, page 37\nFiled under: Misconduct/Corruption, Prosecutor/Attorney General Misconduct, Telephone Monitoring. Location: California.\nJust days after being accused of violating state law by secretly recording telephone conversations with reporters, Scott Gerber resigned from his position as communications director for California Attorney General Jerry Brown.\nIn a move fit for airing on an episode of \u201cAmerica\u2019s Dumbest Public Officials,\u201d Gerber \u2013 who, one would think, should have known better \u2013 sent a transcript of one of his secretly recorded conversations with a reporter to an editor at the reporter\u2019s newspaper. He did so, apparently, because he didn\u2019t agree with some of the statements in an article posted on the paper\u2019s website that included quotes from the conversation.\nThen, in a refreshing display of candor, or perhaps just naivet\u00e9, Gerber acknowledged that he had recorded conversations with other reporters without obtaining their permission. \u201cSure, I\u2019ve done it before,\u201d he told the San Francisco Chronicle, which broke the story of the secretly recorded conversations on October 30, 2009.\nCalifornia is one of only a dozen states that prohibit the taping of phone calls without the consent of all parties involved (Cal. Penal Code \u00a7 632). When asked why he had recorded the conversation with the Chronicle reporter, Gerber said, \u201cTo me, it\u2019s useful to have a record.\u201d\nStephen Proctor, managing editor of the Chronicle, had a different viewpoint. \u201cObviously, it\u2019s troubling whenever someone is recording a phone call without your knowledge, particularly a person in that position \u2014 of being in the Attorney General\u2019s office,\u201d he said.\nGerber was placed on administrative leave after he candidly admitted to his misconduct. In a statement issued the same day that the Chronicle reported the secret recordings, Brown\u2019s press secretary, Christina Gasparac, distanced the Attorney General from Gerber\u2019s actions. She said Brown was unaware that phone calls with reporters had been recorded, and that Gerber had taped the calls \u201cin direct violation of explicit directions regarding office policy.\u201d Gerber resigned three days later.\nIt was later learned that Gerber had recorded five phone conversations between April and October 2009, including calls with reporters from the Associated Press, the Chronicle and the Los Angeles Times. He also recorded an in-person interview with the Times reporter. It was further discovered that Gerber had been instructed by his supervisor a year earlier not to record conversations.\nOn November 9, 2009, the Attorney General\u2019s office issued a report which found that no criminal charges would be filed against Gerber, as his conduct did \u201cnot warrant further investigation as a violation of the law.\u201d Although there was \u201cno indication in any of the conversations that the reporter, the Attorney General, or any other [Department of Justice] participants were advised that Gerber was recording the call,\u201d the report concluded the conversations were \u201con-the-record\u201d and thus meant to be public.\nSources: Associated Press, San Francisco Chronicle\nMore from Michael Brodheim:\nCalifornia: Prisoner Not Entitled to Points Reduction in Classification Score Unless Actually Participating in Programs, Aug. 24, 2016\nCDCR Adopts New Contraband Rules on Obscene, Gang-related Materials, July 7, 2015\nArizona Department of Corrections Adopts Same-Sex Marriage Policy, July 7, 2015\nCalifornia Prison Officials Ordered to Provide Qualified Sign Language Interpreters for All Deaf Prisoners, July 7, 2015\nPlata Court Authorizes Force-Feeding of Hunger-Striking California Prisoners, July 2, 2015\nJune, 2013 Proves To Be Deadly Month for California Prisoners, June 12, 2015\nCalifornia: Commission Recommends Reforms for Jail Overcrowding, Sentencing, June 12, 2015\nNevada Jail Charges Prisoners for Meals, Medical Care to Defray Costs, June 3, 2015\nPennsylvania Jail Guard Who Assaulted Prisoner Gets Home Confinement, Probation, June 3, 2015\nCalifornia Pays $585,000 to Settle Suit by Prisoner Who Lost Eye Due to Poor Medical Care, May 6, 2015",

The young English novelist has a remarkable bag of tricks at his disposal, with a tinglingly fresh eye and ear for the most fleeting of sights and sounds and a dashing way with metaphor and imagery. At first, it looks as if his tale of Martin Blom, a young man in an unnamed country who is shot in the head one night and blinded, is going to be a sort of contemporary Kafka vision. Blom is treated in a strange institution by a sinister doctor. Then he finds he can see again, but only at night; fleeing to a dour capital city, he begins to organize his lonely life around that fact. It is when Blom meets and falls for the mysterious Nina, and she disappears, that The Insult begins to go off the rails. What had been an absorbingly macabre study in solitude veers, in its second half, into a histrionic family history of Nina that seems only steps away from Cold Comfort Farm. After that, it is impossible to rekindle the intense interest Thomson had originally ignited in Martin's story, and the book, for all its incandescent writing and malign urban atmosphere, peters out glumly.

        "raw_content": "Why not go diving at the Bay of Islands?\nNew Zealand has some of the best diving locations, and the Bay of Islands is a great place for a bit of everything, from wrecks to a bright and bustling reef.\nNew Zealand is surrounded by a vast and diverse underwater world \u2013 it's not hard to see why it's considered a diving paradise.\nThe Bay of Islands is one of the top spots for diving in the world and is a must on an adventure holiday. Home to an array of dive sites, you'll be able to see wrecks, drop-offs and sub-tropical reefs in the crystal clear waters.\nHMNZS Canterbury is a former Navy ship that settled in Deep Water Cover near Cape Brett. Upright and still quite intact, it's an impressive sight and a great dive location. The upper deck, bridge and first floor levels are all in easy diving range \u2013 you can even swim through the bridge to the helicopter hanger.\nThis eerie underwater world is where you can get up close and personal with the ghosts of history. It's definitely surreal to swim in areas that have been overtaken by fish and vegetation. Home to many species of fish, you'll see all kinds of colours, shapes and sizes swimming past.\nThe Rainbow Warrior dive is a unique way to see a piece of New Zealand history firsthand. Two years after it was famously bombed in the Auckland Harbour, it was sunk at the Cavalli Islands in 1987, where it now resides.\nOnce Greenpeace's flagship, it's now teeming with underwater life. It's become the home for mackerel, golden snapper, leatherjacket's, stunning jewel anemones, moray eels and scorpion fish, just to name a few.\nWhether you want to go for a day or night dive, make sure you see the spectacle before it disintegrates completely and becomes part of the ocean.\nReef diving here is different from anywhere else in the world. This is because it's a sub-tropical blended zone. Tropical fish migrate to the temperate environment and intermingle with local species, like some of the largest stingrays in the world.\nDiscover this bright watery world that was once a volcanic area. See forests of kelp, massive rocks and boulders as you swim through caves, caverns and crevasses. A dive here is sure to be the highlight of your holiday.\nCategories: Adventure Travel , Things to Do",

        "title": "Radio Holland and Thome Ship management conclude a service rate agreement covering more than 200 vessels - Radio Holland",
        "raw_content": "Radio Holland and Thome Ship Management conclude a Service Rate Agreement covering more than 200 vessels\nShip Management Pte Ltd and Radio Holland Singapore have concluded a Service Rate Agreement (SRA) covering the NavCom service and maintenance needs of its entire fleet of more than 200 vessels.\nHeadquartered in Singapore, Thome Ship Management has worked together with Radio Holland for many years. The two companies have now taken a next step to a new format of cooperation with the SRA, which includes everything from annual radio surveys to servicing bridge equipment, to the delivery of spare parts and on-the-spot troubleshooting.\nIrene Yoong, Radio Holland Sales Manager Services, comments: \u201cThome Ship Management was looking for cost efficiencies in terms of managing the maintenance and repair of its global fleet. This SRA provides Thome with fixed rates, allowing them to have complete control of their maintenance spend and making it much easier to budget. They won\u2019t face unpleasant surprises through unexpected costs \u2013 the same rates apply worldwide. We also offer special package rates for annual and five-year surveys. This ability to preplan makes it possible to save a considerable amount of money.\u201d\nUnder the SRA a Single Point of Contact (SPoC) is established. \u201cBecause Thome operates globally the SPoC was very important. This means that wherever the 200 vessels are in the world and the captain, chief engineer etc. has a maintenance/repair request they get in touch with their dedicated, Radio Holland coordinator in Singapore. The coordinator then talks to our technical team to make sure the vessel can be serviced in the nearest convenient port.\u201d\nRadio Holland\u2019s global network of more than 80 stations was also a major reason Thome chose the company as its maintenance partner, Irene stresses.\nRyan Dalgado, Procurement & Supply Chain Manager of Thome Ship Management PTE Ltd., says: \u201cRadio Holland has a large global network and enjoys a good reputation. We need a reliable partner we can call on to support our worldwide activities of our entire fleet. It is also convenient for us to have a local contact in Singapore, where we know the people and they help us wherever our vessels are in the world.\u201d\nToday, Radio Holland has more than 5000 vessels under service contract. Paul Smulders, Radio Holland CEO, says these service contracts are highly valued by clients and offer several advantages. Crucially, the agreements give clients access to Radio Holland\u2019s unrivalled service network through one point of contact.\n\u201cAnd all the relevant service data is stored in a database to provide up-to-date status information on the fleet\u2019s equipment. Radio Holland can flag surveys that are coming up or when parts need to be replaced. It can warn the ship operator well before any expiry dates Thus, Radio Holland can offer advice to the owner in order to achieve the lowest cost of ownership during their lifetime.\u201d\nProfile Thome Group of Companies\nThe Thome Group of Companies is a dynamic provider of integrated ship management services to the international shipping and offshore industries. Based in Singapore and celebrating more than 50 years of service, the Thome Group of Companies represents a unique combination of the best elements of Scandinavian shipping tradition with the modern drive of Asian business enterprise.\nFrom ship management to offshore structure management, port agency, vessel inspection and crew training, Thome offers a complete range of services & products under one roof. Building on Singapore\u2019s dynamic growth as an international maritime centre, the Thome Group has grown to be recognized as one of the world\u2019s leading independent international ship managers with more than 300 vessels under its management serviced by over 650 shore staff and 11,000 crew members.\nThome\u2019s management team is comprised of highly experienced and insightful industry professionals whose expertise has been carefully selected to ensure that our services stay at the forefront of global ship and offshore vessel management excellence.",

The second disc begins with Bob Dylan's game-changing classics, Blowing In The Wind, Don't Think Twice, It's All Right, A Hard Rain's A-Gonna Fall, Masters Of War, Mr. Tambourine Man, and The Times They Are A-Changin'.

        "raw_content": "Righting a Wrong Question\nWhen you are faced with an unanswerable question\u2014a question to which it seems impossible to even imagine an answer\u2014there is a simple trick that can turn the question solvable.\n\u201cWhy do I have free will?\u201d\n\u201cWhy do I think I have free will?\u201d\nThe nice thing about the second question is that it is guaranteed to have a real answer, whether or not there is any such thing as free will. Asking \u201cWhy do I have free will?\u201d or \u201cDo I have free will?\u201d sends you off thinking about tiny details of the laws of physics, so distant from the macroscopic level that you couldn\u2019t begin to see them with the naked eye. And you\u2019re asking \u201cWhy is X the case?\u201d where X may not be coherent, let alone the case.\n\u201cWhy do I think I have free will?,\u201d in contrast, is guaranteed answerable. You do, in fact, believe you have free will. This belief seems far more solid and graspable than the ephemerality of free will. And there is, in fact, some nice solid chain of cognitive cause and effect leading up to this belief.\nIf you\u2019ve already outgrown free will, choose one of these substitutes:\n\u201cWhy does time move forward instead of backward?\u201d versus \u201cWhy do I think time moves forward instead of backward?\u201d\n\u201cWhy was I born as myself rather than someone else?\u201d versus \u201cWhy do I think I was born as myself rather than someone else?\u201d\n\u201cWhy am I conscious?\u201d versus \u201cWhy do I think I\u2019m conscious?\u201d\n\u201cWhy does reality exist?\u201d versus \u201cWhy do I think reality exists?\u201d\nThe beauty of this method is that it works whether or not the question is confused. As I type this, I am wearing socks. I could ask \u201cWhy am I wearing socks?\u201d or \u201cWhy do I believe I\u2019m wearing socks?\u201d Let\u2019s say I ask the second question. Tracing back the chain of causality, I find:\nI believe I\u2019m wearing socks, because I can see socks on my feet.\nI see socks on my feet, because my retina is sending sock signals to my visual cortex.\nMy retina is sending sock signals, because sock-shaped light is impinging on my retina.\nSock-shaped light impinges on my retina, because it reflects from the socks I\u2019m wearing.\nIt reflects from the socks I\u2019m wearing, because I\u2019m wearing socks.\nI\u2019m wearing socks because I put them on.\nI put socks on becauseI believed that otherwise my feet would get cold.\nTracing back the chain of causality, step by step, I discover that my belief that I\u2019m wearing socks is fully explained by the fact that I\u2019m wearing socks. This is right and proper, as you cannot gain information about something without interacting with it.\nOn the other hand, if I see a mirage of a lake in a desert, the correct causal explanation of my vision does not involve the fact of any actual lake in the desert. In this case, my belief in the lake is not just explained, but explained away.\nBut either way, the belief itself is a real phenomenon taking place in the real universe\u2014psychological events are events\u2014and its causal history can be traced back.\n\u201cWhy is there a lake in the middle of the desert?\u201d may fail if there is no lake to be explained. But \u201cWhy do I perceive a lake in the middle of the desert?\u201d always has a causal explanation, one way or the other.\nPerhaps someone will see an opportunity to be clever, and say: \u201cOkay. I believe in free will because I have free will. There, I\u2019m done.\u201d Of course it\u2019s not that easy.\nMy perception of socks on my feet is an event in the visual cortex. The workings of the visual cortex can be investigated by cognitive science, should they be confusing.\nMy retina receiving light is not a mystical sensing procedure, a magical sock detector that lights in the presence of socks for no explicable reason; there are mechanisms that can be understood in terms of biology. The photons entering the retina can be understood in terms of optics. The shoe\u2019s surface reflectance can be understood in terms of electromagnetism and chemistry. My feet getting cold can be understood in terms of thermodynamics.\nSo it\u2019s not as easy as saying, \u201cI believe I have free will because I have it\u2014there, I\u2019m done!\u201d You have to be able to break the causal chain into smaller steps, and explain the steps in terms of elements not themselves confusing.\nThe mechanical interaction of my retina with my socks is quite clear, and can be described in terms of non-confusing components like photons and electrons. Where\u2019s the free-will-sensor in your brain, and how does it detect the presence or absence of free will? How does the sensor interact with the sensed event, and what are the mechanical details of the interaction?\nIf your belief does derive from valid observation of a real phenomenon, we will eventually reach that fact, if we start tracing the causal chain backward from your belief.\nIf what you are really seeing is your own confusion, tracing back the chain of causality will find an algorithm that runs skew to reality.\nEither way, the question is guaranteed to have an answer. You even have a nice, concrete place to begin tracing\u2014your belief, sitting there solidly in your mind.\nCognitive science may not seem so lofty and glorious as metaphysics. But at least questions of cognitive science are solvable. Finding an answer may not be easy, but at least an answer exists.\nOh, and also: the idea that cognitive science is not so lofty and glorious as metaphysics is simply wrong. Some readers are beginning to notice this, I hope.",

At age eighteen she moved to Dallas, Texas and began a career in marketing. Twenty years later, she began to devote her full attention to painting still lifes and landscapes, but her true passion was capturing the personality and essence of barnyard animals.\nShe won two Grumbacher Gold Medals and membership in the Society of Animal Artists in New York. She was also a member of the Southwestern Watercolor Society and the Oil Painters of America, and exhibited nationally at such shows as the Buffalo Bill Art Show in Cody, Wyoming, the Audubon Artists Annual Exhibition in New York, and the Salmagundi Club in New York.\nLinda St. Clair was best known for her portrayal of vibrant roosters, cows, and other barnyard animals. The subject matter in her work, however, cannot be seen as merely representational images of domestic animals, as she gave each of her animals an attitude and personality that was reinforced by her clever titles. Themes of pride, as well as those of love and motherhood, can be found in her works.\nLinda credited some of the appeal of her paintings to the need to return to a more simple time and reconnect with the earth. St. Clair believed that we have much to learn from animals, and her love and respect for these animals was made clear through her work.\nSadly, our dear, talented friend passed away in the fall of 2018.\nBecome a Linda St. Clair Insider",

        "raw_content": "Stephen Scott Young is known for his watercolor paintings. Inspired by the work of Thomas Eakins, Winslow Homer, and Andrew Wyeth, Young has done highly finished, detailed figurative subjects.\nA graduate of the Ringling School of Art in Sarasota, Florida, Young began working in watercolor in 1976, and took first prize at the American Artists national art competition in watercolors in 1985. Also, in the early 1980's, Young made his first trip to the Bahamas where he discovered the crisp, bright light that has become the hallmark of his paintings today. Currently, the artist divides his time between studios in Florida and the Bahamas.\nEach masterwork by Stephen Scott Young is preceded by numerous drawings, sketches, studies, and preparatory paintings. The spirit of these works in progress often exceeds the finished subject and, when available, are eagerly sought by collectors.\nBecome a Stephen Scott Young Insider\nStephen Scott Young Stephen Scott Young\nhttps://www.redpianoartgallery.com/artists/painters/stephen-scott-young/69-stephen-scott-young#sigProId277d008aa6",

(1808-1846)\nSARAH (SALLY) BULL\u2019S HEART (Piegan Indian) (1809-18)\nAround 1798 James \u201cJimmy Jock\u201d BIRD was born on the Sturgeon River near present day Prince Albert (SK), the eldest son of Mary OO-MENAHOMISK and James Curtis BIRD (1773-1856). His father left the family there when the trader went upstream to establish Acton House in 1799-1800. ** MORE ABOUT JAMES CURTIS BIRD\n** MORE ABOUT JIMMY JOCK in DCBO\nAnother good source of information is this book: Jimmy Jock Bird: Marginal Man on the Blackfoot Frontier (by John C Jackson).\nIn 1809 Jimmy became an employee of the Hudson\u2019s Bay Company (HBC) as a clerk at Fort Edmonton. After five years he became an Assistant Trader in the Saskatchewan District based at Fort Qu\u2019Appelle.\n** MORE ABOUT JAMES BIRD in HBC ARCHIVES\nRed River Metis Rebellion\nJimmy Jock at Fort Qu\u2019Appelle \u2013 Saskatchewan District\nIt was in 1814 that Miles MACCONELL (1767-1828) issued his historic Pemmican Proclamation that sparked a Red River Rebellion and a Metis uprising led by Cuthbert GRANT (1796-1854).\n** MORE ABOUT CUTHBERT GRANT and the RED RIVER REBELLION\nIn the spring of 1916 Jimmy Jock was with the party from Qu\u2019Appelle post that was captured by the NWC men during the hostilities between the rival fur companies. He was soon released, but the events of these years left him with enduring anti-French and anti-Canadian prejudices (DCBO).\nIn 1818 Jimmy Jock returned to the Edmonton district where he worked as an Interpreter for the next few years.\nAround 1820 Jimmy\u2019s mother, OO-MENAHOMISK, died in Red River country, and his father re-married to Elizabeth MONTOUR, daughter of Nicholas MONTOUR (1756-1808).\nThe Hudson Bay Company & North West Company Merger\nIn early 1821 Governor Nicholas GARRY (1782-1856) was appointed as president of the newly created HBC\u2019s Northern Department. George SIMPSON (1786-1860) was appointed as Governor of Rupert's Land. On Aug 11 that year, Nicholas GARRY (1782-1856) presided over the first Council of the Northern Department of the HBC at Norway House. It was then that the first announcement was made of a merger agreement between the NWC and the HBC. SIMPSON was appointed as the new Governor of Rupert's Land, and Jimmy\u2019s father, James BIRD SR, was made the Chief Factor for the Red River District with his headquarters at the Forks of the Red and Assiniboine rivers.\nJimmy Jock and Elizabeth (daughter of PEGUIS)\nIn Albert Edward Thompson\u2019s book \u2018Chief Peguis and his Descendants\u2019, page 20 refers to a letter written by Nicholas GARRY on Aug 3, 1821 in which he stated \u201cThe chief\u2019s daughter is very pretty. The Cut Nose (Chief PEGUIS) is anxious that Mr. BIRD\u2019s son (Jimmy Jock) should marry her.\u201d ** This would be the Elizabeth referred to in Sprague & Frye ID-378. ** MORE ABOUT CHIEF PEGUIS\nJimmy Jock becomes a Freeman along the Rocky Mountains\nAfter the merger, almost 1,300 employees lost their jobs since the single HBC organization that emerged had no need for most of the voyageurs and fur traders. Jimmy Jock became a \u2018freeman\u2019 (no longer employed by the HBC). He left Red River country to become a hunter and trapper on both sides of the Rocky Mountains, north and south of the 49th parallel. Except for a trip in 1823 to take privately owned horses to Red River, he travelled and lived with the Blackfoot tribes during the 1820s.\nMarriage to Sarah BULL\u2019S HEART\nAbout 1825 Jimmy Jock married a Peigan woman, Sarah (Sally), and that year, with a large group of Peigan and Blood Indians, he encountered HBC chief trader Peter Skene OGDEN (1790-1854) in the Snake River country. Convinced of BIRD\u2019s influence over the plains Indians, whose way of life he had adopted, the company began to use him as an unofficial agent from the late 1820s. However, following a dispute over money, he broke with the HBC in 1831 to help consolidate the American Fur Company\u2019s newly established operation among the Blackfeet near the confluence of the Missouri and Marias rivers. His reputation for being able to influence Indian actions was deflated in October 1832 when Blackfoot Indians with whom he was travelling killed AFC trader William Henry VANDERBURGH.\nIn June of 1833 Jimmy Jock left the American company and shortly rejoined the HBC as a clerk and interpreter in the Saskatchewan District. By 1839 he was again a retired \u2018Freeman\u2019 in the Saskatchewan District.\nJames \u201cJimmy Jock\u201d Bird (Glenbow Archives)\nJames SINCLAIR Party of Settlers from Red River to Oregon\nIn 1841 BIRD acted as guide for a group of settlers being taken from Red River to the Columbia River by his brother-in-law James SINCLAIR (1811-1856); he accompanied the party from Carlton House into the Rockies where he left them in the hands of another guide, Broken Arm (MASKEPETOON). ** MORE ABOUT JAMES SINCLAIR\nJimmy and Sarah are Church-wed\nIn the spring of 1856 BIRD left Saskatchewan region for Red River where many of his relatives, including his father, had settled. He bought a lot and house on the Red River some twelve miles below Upper Fort Garry (Birds Hill area).\nJackson: Sally finally gained Christian legitimacy. During the years when she attended the preaching of Rev RUNDLE, he had refused to baptise her. Now the difficulty of the other wife was left behind and Sally could be accepted into the Church. She and James were married at St Paul\u2019s Anglican Church on Christmas Day, 1857. Six months later she was baptized there with the name Sarah. Determined to build a new life, the prairie wanderers put the children in school. Five of the six children born in the mountains accompanied their parents to the settlement. Twelve-year-old Thomas and his seven-year-old brother Philip were baptised at St Paul\u2019s Church on Apr 24, 1859.\nIn 1859 daughter Nancy married Peter KNIGHT in St Paul (Middlechurch), son of Sophia HALLETT and James KNIGHT (1783-1854).\nIn 1860 son Edward married Isabella SINCLAIR in Portage la Prairie, daughter of Elizabeth ANDERSON and William SINCLAIR (1790-1862). ** MORE ABOUT WILLIAM SINCLAIR\nIn 1861 daughter Agnes married Thomas HOURIE in St Paul (Middlechurch), son of Christina ANDERSON and Robert HOURIE (1815-1911). ** MORE ABOUT ROBERT HOURIE\nIn 1865 son Thomas married Anne McKAY at Fort Ellis, daughter of a William McKAY of uncertain origins.\nOn July 1, 1867 the British colonies in North America were united under the British North American Act to become the Dominion of Canada. Sir John A MACDONALD (1815-1891) was appointed as Canada\u2019s first Prime Minister; a month later he won the first federal election.William McDOUGALL (1822-1905) became the Minister of Public Works, and he begannegotiations to acquire Rupert\u2019s Land from the HBC, sending out surveyors to prepare the way for an expected influx of settlers.\nIn 1868 son Joseph married Sarah LEWIS in St Andrews, daughter of Isabella SPENCE and James LEWIS aka LOUIS (1807-1882). ** MORE ABOUT JAMES LOUIS\nDuring the Rebellion Jimmy\u2019s half-brother, Dr. Curtis James BIRD (1837-1876) became involved as a politician. He twice represented St Paul Parish in the Council of Assiniboia (RIEL\u2019s Provisional Government).\n** MORE ABOUT DR CURTIS JAMES BIRD in DCBO\nIn 1871 youngest son Philip married Mary KIPLING in St Andrews, daughter of Angelique MARCHAND dit BERCIER and Peter KIPLING (1812-1891).\nBack to the Saskatchewan District\nIt is believed that Jimmy Jock and Sally left Red River in 1874 to return to the Saskatchewan region. In the 1881 Census they were recorded in Prince Albert; James BIRD (age 89) and his wife Sarah (age 80).\nGleichen, Alberta\nJul 26, 1884: James BIRD made his will, leaving three-quarters of his estate to son Thomas and one quarter to son Philip.\nIn the spring of 1885 James applied for his Scrip. He was living near Gleichen, Alberta (east of Calgary) at that time. He declared four living children: Thomas, Agnes, Nancy and Phillip and seven children who died: Charles, Edward, Joseph, Mary, Letty, Maria and Catherine.\nEven in their old age Jimmy Jock and Sarah travelled extensively. In the 1891 Census he was back in Prince Albert. He was enumerated as 100 years old; Sally, 85 years old.\nOn Dec 15, 1892 James \u201cJimmy Jock\u201d BIRD diedat Two Medicine Creek, Montana (west of Browning).\nI will only list the children mentioned in Jimmy Jock\u2019s Scrip affidavit of 1885. However, some sources indicate that he may have had other wives and other children (Elizabeth, James, John and William). Nobody mentions spouses for any of them which renders them somewhat irrelevant anyway for genealogical purposes.\nComments and queries at this link: FORUM DISCUSSING the FAMILY of JIMMY JOCK BIRD\nChildren named in Scrip Affidavit:\n1. 1832 MARY BIRD\n2. 1834 LETITIA BIRD\n3. 1836 MARIA BIRD\n5. 1839 EDWARD BIRD (m1.

        "raw_content": "The \u201cGleanings\u201d posts that I\u2019ve been doing the last year or so have been wearing on my conscience lately.I\u2019m not sure that going about the Pinterest portion of those posts is necessarily good blogging conduct since I\u2019m essentially using someone else\u2019s images to put the post together. I feel like it\u2019s walking the line in a grey area and I\u2019d rather \u201cabstain from all appearance of evil\u201d and refrain from running the risk of stealing content.\nFrom now on these posts will be using the embedded Pinterest code. The way I\u2019ve been doing it, if someone was searching the internet and came across a picture in one of those posts, they could pin it from my site instead of going to Pinterest and repinning it. Good for me, bad for the writer of the valuable content. The problem is that if you\u2019re one of my cherished subscribers, you\u2019ll have to click through to the blog to see those if I\u2019m not mistaken. Sorry if that disappoints you or is an inconvenience. (Which is why I haven\u2019t done it this way before now.)\nI hope you continue to find value in these posts and that they are a source of inspiration and encouragement for you!\nSo here are some of my most popular pins from October & November:\n\u2022Preserving Food and Sanity (3 Part Series)\nIf you have never preserved food, give yourself time to learn this new skill. It is far better to start small, maybe with one kind of vegetable than to attempt to grow all you own food and get discouraged. I wrote about this topic in garden planning. Make small, attainable goals, learn from your mistakes and successes, and use your experience to have a better garden the next year. Eventually you will be the expert that others turn to for advice.\n\u2022A Christian Homeschool Trap- Part Two: Some Solutions\nThe future of many children in Christian Homeschool families is little more than sanctified humanism with goals being very much the same as those in the world, but with a Christian veneer\u2026\nJust think about it for a moment. What do your children need to learn so as to walk in the way of the Lord, God\u2019s Word. Where do you learn the Word of God? Well, in the Word of God. Before there was curriculum and most every family had a Bible, or pieces of it, that is what they used to train their children. Yes there may have been small books people used but they were minimal and mostly biblically based. Stop and think about it for a moment. You can teach your child to read, spell and, yes with some ingenuity, even do math using God\u2019s word. The great benefit of using the Bible is that not only will your children learn to read but also they will be sealing God\u2019s word in their heart. That cannot be said about reading \u201cCat in the Hat\u201d or \u201cJack and Jill\u201d. Again, I think it is a fear that our children will be different from others around us, yes even in the church, that tends to make us balk at such a simple curriculum. But different from the world is what we want.\n\u2022I haven\u2019t looked at the vaccination debate too much since we made our decision a decade ago\u2026 I\u2019m appreciating the refresher course.\nVaccination Series\nThere are several varieties of vaccinations that contain aborted fetus cells. {In this post, I am not covering all of the vaccinations that contain these cells \u2013 there are more than what I have listed below.}\nYes. You read that right. Aborted fetus cells.\nI was blown away when I found this out in my research.\nYou see, I am pro-life. I believe that life begins at conception. When one cell multiplies into millions of cells \u2013 it is alive. When a heart starts beating 22 days after conception \u2013 it is living. Abortion is killing a baby. Killing is murder. I cannot take part in this. A growing number of parents are finding this fetus culture fact, and are outraged that the information has not been disclosed to them before. In the vaccination ingredient list, the aborted cells are referred to as \u201chuman diploid tissue\u201d, thus admitting that they have killed a human.\n\u2022Joe vs. Joel GMO Debate video- I actually haven\u2019t watched yet, but heard some really thought-provoking excerpts that make it seem like it would be worth the time to see Dr. Mercola debate Joel Salatin.\n\u2022If This, Then That\nI have been using this website for a few months now and love it! And I\u2019m not even using it to it\u2019s fullest extent- only for searching Craigslist. Basically, what I\u2019m doing is creating \u201crecipes\u201d with a Craigslist search that I\u2019m looking for. For example, right now I have one for mulch hay, a few different breeds of heritage hogs (I don\u2019t recommend searching for Large Black hogs this way though, just saying), and Bernese Mountain dog. This is how I found my treadle machine that I hope to restore this winter. So whenever someone posts an ad with one of these items in it, I get an email sent to me.\nWhat a time saver! Now I don\u2019t have to remember what I want and keep going back to search for it. The work is done for me. I love valuable internet tools like this!\n\u2022The Two Ways\nFor a while after Chloe was born (pretty much until I became pregnant again) I struggled with postpartum depression- a first for me. It was awful and I hope never to feel that way again, but if I do I\u2019m putting this sermon into my arsenal and will use the preached word to fight against it! I couldn\u2019t possibly recommend listening to this enough if you are going through a period of depression yourself or sharing with a Christian who you know is.\n\u00ab Should Organic Farmers Use Natural Sprays?\n~Natural Homestead~ \u00bb",

        "raw_content": "Tunnel road will temporarily be gravel\nOAKRIDGE \ufffd Motorists traveling through the Salt Creek Tunnel on Highway 58 east of Oakridge will encounter a gravel road surface today and Thursday.\nRoad excavation, approximately 1,000 feet east of the tunnel, was set to begin Tuesday night during the tunnel\ufffds overnight closure.\nWhen the tunnel reopens at 6 a.m. today, a temporary road surface of gravel will be in place until the roadway repaving is complete on Thursday, state Department of Transportation officials said.\nTravel through the construction zone will be controlled by a pilot car. Motorists are advised to expect 5- to 20-minute delays and are encouraged to travel slowly over the temporary road surface, state spokesman Rick Little said.\nCrews are pressing ahead to complete major portions of the tunnel rebuild before they cease work for the year by mid-October, according to the Transportation Department.\nThe repairs to and reconstruction of the tunnel and its approach roads, begun last summer, was supposed to have been completed by this fall. But the job is now scheduled to spill over into next summer.\nODOT says there have been \ufffdsignificant delays\ufffd with the project. The agency and its contractor on the job, Capital Concrete Construction of Aumsville, are in dispute about the cause of those delays.\nNotwithstanding the dispute, construction on the $9.4 million project is continuing.\nThe state was told on July 22 that the contractor could not finish the project by Sept. 30, as specified in its contract, the department said.\nThe contractor has since issued a new schedule that calls for the project to be completed in October 2014.\nThe project involves replacing the half-viaducts \ufffd or platforms \ufffd that lead in and out of the tunnel as well as lowering the roadway itself. That has required extensive closures of Highway 58 at the tunnel.\nBoth in 2012 and this year, during construction season, the tunnel has been completely closed from 8 p.m to 6 a.m. Monday through Thursday nights. The highway has been reduced to one lane of traffic the rest of the time.",

        "raw_content": "Ring News 24Boxing News Fight ResultsHow Good Is Adam Kownacki?\nHow Good Is Adam Kownacki?\nAdam Kownacki secured his 19th straight win on Saturday night in New York at the Barclays Center over Gerald Washington.\nThe former world title challenger was wiped out in 2 rounds after a barrage of power punches landed in the 1st round, followed by more in the next which knocked him down hard. But Kownacki had more to do, as Washington managed to get to his feet. The referee allowed the fight to continue for a few more seconds before stepping in to halt the contest.\nKownacki is ranked number 8 by the WBC, unranked by the WBA and is number 5 by the IBF. The WBO do not recognise him. So, it looks as if the Polish born heavyweight boxer will need to do some more work in order to keep climbing toward an eventual world championship opportunity.\nBut just how good is he?\nKownacki easily overcame Charles Martin last year.\nAdam Kownacki was born on March 27th, 1989 in Poland. He moved to the USA when he was seven years old in 1996 and he has remained a resident there ever since. Inspired by watching fights of fellow countryman Andrew Golota, Kownacki started training at Gleason\u2019s Gym at the age of sixteen.\nSuccess was to shortly follow when he won the New York Golden Gloves tournament the next year and won it again in 2009. Kownacki made his professional debut shortly after that during the same year.\nPartly due to his three-year long absence out of the ring between 2010 and 2013 due to injuries, it took Kownacki eight more years to fight somebody that could potentially test him. Artur Szpilka was thought to be the one to give him that test, but he found himself beaten in 4 rounds. Iago Kiladze was next, who only managed to survive two rounds longer. Former IBF champion, Charles Martin was unable to come up with any answers and lost by a unanimous decision. And then came along Washington.\nThe Pole throws all sorts of punches that catches his opponents off guard.\nKownacki\u2019s hand speed is pretty good and he always throws punches in bunches. He lacks the versatility of somebody such as Tyson Fury in terms of mobility, preferring to stalk his opposition to try and close the show. His jab is not excellent but it is serviceable. And sometimes he sacrifices defense for offense, something which a good counter puncher and a more athletically gifted fighter could capitalise on.\nBut his power is definitely there, having stopped 15 out of 19 so far. Whether that power could trouble the elites of the division is still to be discovered, but it is has been proven to be more than enough for quality challengers such as Szpilka. His blustery work rate also highly contributes to that.\nOne issue that stands out is his physical fitness. Kownacki does not seem to care much about getting into the best shape possible and often looks very soft. It has not evidently been much of a problem right now, seeing as he is only 29. But give it a few more years and he will start to feel the pace. Things can rarely be successfully achieved half-heartedly in boxing.\nKownacki does not possess what it will take to overthrow Anthony Joshua\u2026yet.\nLooking at it objectively, Kownacki may have something to trouble the likes of Deontay Wilder, who is fundamentally flawed. The American has had to fight tooth and nail during some of his WBC title defenses against fighters that other more solid champions of the past and present would have dealt with more handily. However, Kownacki\u2019s skill set probably would not be enough to give Anthony Joshua a run for his money due to his more mature boxing style.\nGive it a couple of more years for Adam to work on his flaws and improve what he has and it could be a different ball game. There is no rush at the moment.\nIt is all about how much Kownacki wants it. Is the desire there? I believe it partially is. But I am not sure if it fully is.\nAdam, just keep punching.\nKeith Thurman made to work against Josesito Lopez in first fight in 22-months\nRead more articles about: Adam Kownacki, Anthony Joshua, Deontay Wilder, Tyson Fury",

The show is called \u2018No Love Lost.\u2019\nThe path to pro boxing for the 32-year-old started at Platinum Boxing Club in her hometown, where she still teaches the sweet science.\nHodges turned over by seeing off Teodora Hristova over-the-distance in the Stadium Suite at Walsall Football Club last year, dropping just one point in the process.\nShe then extended her paid record with an over-the-distance landslide, dominating against Sonia Klos on the road to having her hand raised.\nA third bout was supposed to take place in December, but a postponement left Hodges kicking her heels. Nonetheless, the female prospect is taking that as a positive.\nShe\u2019s spent two camps with Ijaz Ahmed, the reigning Midlands boss at her weight. Hodges reckons the hard yards put, in behind the scenes, are making all of the difference.\nShe said: \u201cIt\u2019s difficult to find proper someone of the proper size for sparring for when you\u2019re a flyweight, but I did a fair bit of sparring with Ijaz when he was fighting for the Midlands title.\n\u201cHe became the champion, so we must have been doing something right! We\u2019ve done the same for this one, too, so I\u2019m hoping we\u2019ll see the results.\n\u201cI\u2019ve been out of the ring for longer than I\u2019d hoped, but all that is going to change on February 16. It\u2019s an exciting time to be a part of the division.\nThe fight I had in December was cancelled, but I\u2019ve kept myself ticking over so I\u2019m feeling strong and sharp. I really want to establish my power in this next one.\n\u201cI\u2019ve boxed at the Town Hall before, so I know what it\u2019s all about and what a fantastic venue to perform at. It\u2019s bound to give you a buzz.\n\u201cA lot of this camp has been about learning, we\u2019ve had the time to work on a few things in the gym, so I\u2019ll feel good for it when I get in there.\n\u201cI\u2019ve always had the fitness and speed, so we\u2019ve been working on strength and I\u2019m punching a lot harder. I\u2019m cutting off more space and setting up shots quicker.\n\u201cIt\u2019s time for me to prove that I\u2019m a force to be reckoned with. I\u2019ve got power and I plan to show that on fight night.\u201d\nThe six-round welterweight main event at the Town Hall will see Damian Kiwior, from Poland but based in Wolverhampton, tackle undefeated Cornwallian Wes Smith.\nThe rest of the undercard is stacked, with the other eight support acts occupying the home corner a mix of prospects and contenders.\nDanny Ball, from Kingswinford, laces on the gloves again and is from pugilist stock, with brother Jamie a one-time holder of the Midlands belt in the same division of super welter.\nProdigy Liam Davies, 22 and from Telford in Shropshire, boxes for the second time as a pro, looking to build another reputation after representing his country in the amateurs.\nRead more articles about: Dani Hodges",

        "title": "On the Nobel Prize for Occasional Peace \u2013 Rolling Stone",
        "raw_content": "On the Nobel Prize for Occasional Peace\nMaddow: Before he was nominated for the Nobel, Mr. Obama had persuaded the people of the most powerful nation on earth to choose him and his vision of strength through diplomacy\u2014instead of the vision offered by his rival for the presidency.\nMcCain: You know that old, uh, that old Beach Boys song, bomb Iran? Bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb\u2026 anyway\u2026\nvia Rachel Maddow: The Nobel Peace Prize and Obama Derangement Syndrome | Video Cafe.\nIt\u2019s hard to believe, but there have been sillier moments in the history of the Nobel Peace Prize than this recent fiasco involving Barack Obama \u2014 it\u2019s just so hard to remember them when you\u2019re rolling around on the ground and spitting up greenish foam in a state of shock, as most of us were this past weekend as the news of Obama\u2019s amazing award rolled over the airwaves.\nThe Nobel Peace Prize long ago ceased to be an award given to people who really spend their whole careers agitating for peace. Like most awards the Prize has evolved into a kind of maraschino cherry for hardcore careerists to place atop their resumes, a reward not for dissidence but on the contrary for gamely upholding the values of Western society as it perceives itself, for putting a good face on things (in Obama\u2019s place, literally so).\nEven when the award is given to a genuine dissident, it tends to be a dissident hailing from a country we consider outside the fold of Western civilization, a rogue state, \u201cnot one of us\u201d \u2014 South Africa from the apartheid days, for instance, or the regime occupying East Timor.\nYou never, ever get a true dissident from a prominent Western country winning the award, despite the obvious appropriateness such a choice would represent. Our Western society quite openly embraces war as a means of solving problems and for quite some time now has fashioned its entire social and economic structure around the preparation for war.\nMost of our important scientific innovations come, either directly or indirectly, through research into the creation of new weapons. Our media relentlessly praises and cartoonizes war and violence, blithely indoctrinates millions of children a day into the possibilities of military combat with video games and toy guns. We house an utterly insane percentage of nonviolent criminals in jails. And when a fringe presidential candidate named Dennis Kucinich announced plans to create a \u201cDepartment of Peace,\u201d he was almost literally laughed off the campaign trail.\nWe\u2019re a society that believes powerfully in the divine right of force, but that doesn\u2019t mean we don\u2019t like to think of ourselves as being peaceful. And indeed, there are times when we actually do turn to peace and diplomacy to solve our problems. Usually this is because all other avenues of action have been exhausted first, or because it just happens to be the right logistical move at that particular moment.\nLike for instance, we invade Iraq for whatever asinine reason was actually behind that decision, we stay there for, oh, seven years or whatever, and eventually it starts to occur to us that this is an extraordinarily expensive activity, pisses off everyone involved, destabilizes a whole region, and to boot puts the lives of countless innocent Iraqis and young Americans at risk, though of course this is the last consideration. Moreover the plan to gain permanent access to Iraqi oil reserves through the establishment of a friendly \u201cdemocratic\u201d regime with (let\u2019s say) a \u201cflexible\u201d attitude toward foreign investment is turning out to be problematic at best.\nSo eventually someone will make the decision that this whole Iraq war thing is stupid, benefits no one, not even politically in the short term, and moves will be made to wrap up this idiotic business and bring everyone home. At which point someone making this dreary logistical decision will get nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize, and that someone will probably win it, allowing us all to bask in the glow of our \u201cpeace-loving\u201d values which prevailed in the end over hate and violence.\nThat\u2019s how this thing works. We ebb toward war most of the time. But sometimes, out of necessity, or when we run out of bullets, we ebb the other way. And it\u2019s then that we give ourselves awards for our peace-loving behavior.\nWho knows, maybe Barack Obama\u2019s award is already tied to that particular Iraq plotline. He was, after all, elected in part because his party, the Democratic Party, which had supported the idiotic invasion at the start, had lately decided to abandon the idea and present itself as being against this particular war.\nMore likely the Obama critics who believe that Obama won this award for not being George Bush are right as well. The problem the international community had with Bush wasn\u2019t that he believed in war and the use of force, it was that he believed in the unilateral use of these things. Bush did not believe in the use of force as an expression of a whole society\u2019s values, he believed in it as an expression of his own machismo.\nHe was like Slim Pickens in Dr. Strangelove, flying through history with a bomb between his legs, shouting \u201cYee, haw!\u201d It wasn\u2019t so much that this behavior was wrong, it was just unseemly. He was like the drunk at a Victorian tea party who during the soup course makes jokes about the hostess\u2019s secret pregnancy in France. We Westerners, we just don\u2019t do things like that. Decorum, sir, decorum!\nHow do we do things? We keep the troops in those faraway places like Afghanistan and Iraq, sure, but while we do that we make sure to extol things like tolerance and dialogue and the spirit of diplomacy. We make sure that the same people who were not involved in the decision-making process during the previous bombing runs under Bush are in the loop again, now and hopefully forever. We smile a lot and say nice things about the Geneva convention and the impropriety of torture and secret detention, the importance of the rule of international law. We make everybody feel better about how things are going to go from now on.\nThis is what Barack Obama did to \u201cearn\u201d the Nobel Prize. He put the benevolent face back on things. He is a good-looking black law professor with an obvious bent for dialogue and discussion and inclusion. That he hasn\u2019t actually reversed any of Bush\u2019s more notorious policies \u2014 hasn\u2019t closed Guantanamo Bay, hasn\u2019t ended secret detentions, hasn\u2019t amped down Iraq or Afghanistan \u2014 is another matter. What he has done is remove the stink of unilateralism from those policies.\nThey\u2019re not crazy-ass, blatantly illegal, lunatic rampages anymore, but carefully-considered, collectively-run peacekeeping actions, prosecuted with meaningful input from our allies.\nYou see the difference? The Nobel committee sure did!\nThere\u2019ve been some dumb Nobel Peace Prizes before. Giving one to Gorbachev in 1990, sandwiched right in between his invasions of Azerbaijan and Lithuania, comes immediately to mind. Giving one to Henry Kissinger, a man responsible for the bombings of millions of Indochinese (and who consistently favored the use of increased bombing runs to force the other side to the negotiating table) is another. The award to Arafat, Rabin and Peres likewise seems humorous to me. The Al Gore award, I don\u2019t even want to go there. I went years thinking that the Al Gore prize was a joke someone was playing on me. I still can\u2019t believe it really happened.\nThe unifying thread for all these prizewinners is that they were all important political figures who at one time or another embraced violence as a just and appropriate policy, and got the peace crown once the political weather changed and it was time to put the tanks back in the garage. Even Gore, during the Kosovo war, boned up on his war cred before he got a prize for losing an election, growing a beard, and making a freaking movie. And hey, maybe in the real world, you can\u2019t punish politicians for embracing force \u2014 maybe there\u2019s just no way around the use of violence, when you\u2019re running a country the size of the U.S. I wouldn\u2019t know. I\u2019ve never been President or Vice President of anything.\nBut it\u2019s hard not to notice that those onetime war-favoring pols are the Westerners who win these awards, when there is still a significant minority of people living right here among us who believe that nonviolence can work as a permanent policy, and who have consistently rejected and opposed the obvious militaristic values of the society we actually happen to live in.\nThose people win the Nobel Prize when they live in \u201cother\u201d countries, when they\u2019re penniless priests in Timor or Soweto or activists in Guatemala. But when they\u2019re Americans or Western Europeans or Japanese who think we should reduce military spending or defund catastrophic weapons programs, no dice, because those people don\u2019t represent \u201cus\u201d \u2014 us being a society that doesn\u2019t seriously think about disarming.\nInstead they use the award to give political backrubs to the inexperienced commanders of deployed armies, people like Barack Obama. I have no idea what his award means, but I do know one thing; it doesn\u2019t have a lot to do with peace.",

        "raw_content": "A Different Government is Possible!\nBeyond the Centre-left Governments in Europe\nMichael Brie, Institute of Social Analysis, RLS , 28.06.2010\n. A NEW STRATEGIC SITUATION\nThe short social-democatic decade and the return of the conservatives\nAfter the German parliamentary elections in 1998, thirteen of fifteen governments of the then member countries of the European Union were led by social democrats; Spain and Ireland were the only exceptions. Within a decade, this picture has been reversed completely. The centre-left in Europe is everywhere on the defensive.\nSelf-criticism on the part of the left of its last twenty years is the necessary point of departure for real renewal. For the life goals, the political convictions and the style of politics of the most important leaders were no longer of the left, the results of their politics no longer had any connection to leftist goals, and the cooperative base for a common left formation had disintegrated. To put it bluntly, this left no longer knew what it wanted. It no longer wanted what it could do. It could no longer do what would have been good for itself and for the country.\nLife goals: In Manager magazine, we can read about former SPD Chancellor Gerhard Schr\u00f6der that, more than any of his predecessors, he worked \u201cfor business\u201d. According to this report, the \u201cGerd AG\u201d takes in \u20ac1.5 million annually.[2] Gerhard Schr\u00f6der has thus risen into the ranks of the high net worth individuals, an exclusive club with some eight million members worldwide. Is it not then social envy criticizes all that; after, all who wouldn\u2019t like to be rich? August Bebel and Wilhelm Liebknecht, Rosa Luxemburg and Willy Brandt \u2013 all of them surely tried to live well, and not in poverty. Only they didn\u2019t want to get rich. Striving for personal wealth isn\u2019t leftist. That also throws a light on Joschka Fischer, who today works for the energy corporations RWE and OMV, and for BMW and Siemens. But also leading workers\u2019 representatives have succumbed to the heady rush of new wealth.\nThe political convictions: But in this case, it was not only the personal motivations that weren\u2019t leftist. The political opinions of a whole generation of leftist leadership, too, weren\u2019t. Lest we forget, there was the joint paper which Gerhard Schr\u00f6der and Tony Blair presented to the European Union in 1999, at the pinnacle of leftist rule. In it, they announced that economic success and successful employment policy were dependent primarily on a \u201cframework that allows market forces to work properly\u201d. The social democrats had, they went on, for much too long overstated the \u201cweakness of the markets\u201d, while underestimating their strengths. And, they explained, \u201cthe reduction of non-wage labour costs\u201d \u2013 i.e., the employers\u2019 co-payments for old-age, unemployment and health insurance \u2013 \u201cand a more employment friendly tax and contribution structure that looks to the future is therefore of particular importance.\u201d And Peter Mandelson\u2019s statement that \u201cwe are utterly relaxed about some people getting filthy rich\u201d was certainly led ad absurdum at the point when employees had to pay for the orgy of money-making of others.\nThe style of politics: During the rule of Schr\u00f6der and Fischer, commissions and agenda groups dominated in which representatives of major corporations, private consulting firms, academic commissions and trade unions prepared basic policy decisions, which would then be selectively implemented with the chancellor\u2019s famous \u201cbasta!\u201d \u2013 roughly: \u201cthat\u2019s it, and no argument\u201d. It was a policy structure which favoured the influential and powerful, and was determined directly by them. Being part of the process, as a \u201cplayer\u201d became a value in and of itself.\nThe results of this \u201cmodern\u201d economic policy in Germany are the focussed expression of the miserable plight of a once centre-left politics:\n>> a growing gap between the lower and upper pay levels: Germany leads the pack in low paid workers in continental Europe, with a share of 22 per cent;\n>> a level of inequality which climbed to US standards within just a few years: 14 per cent are income-poor, while the upper ten per cent were able to increase their share of net assets from approx. 45 to over 60 per cent between 1993 and 2007;\n>> stagnating real wages, a declining pension level, stifled domestic demand, the lowest net investment quota of all highly developed countries, and reduced economic growth, with strong export of capital;\n>> a drop in the wage ratio from 72 to 64 per cent between 2000 and 2007, with a simultaneous reduction by half of the investment quota: thus, contrary to promises, the growing profits and fortunes were not productively invested, but were used for speculation, thus contributing considerably to the financial bubble;\n>> No real ecological turn-around.\nThe most depressing aspects of the new lack of concern of social-democratic or also green politics include the readiness to participate actively in the new wars of the post-communist era. And, if the official Afghanistan terminology of the federal government is now often criticized, let us recall Green Foreign Minister Joschka Fischer, who announced in connection with the NATO attack on Yugoslavia: \u201cWe aren\u2019t waging any war; we are offering resistance, defending human rights, freedom and democracy.\u201d Bombs, he added were \u201cnecessary to stop the Serbian SS.\u201d\nThe result of such policies was ultimately the disintegration of the German left\u2019s ability to cooperate. Of the once close alliance of SPD and trade unions on the one hand, and of the Greens and the social movements on the other, little remained but bitterness from internecine fights and much alienation. With the demonstrations against-Hartz IV (the social cutback programme) a mass movement arose against an SPD-led government for the first time since the Nato twin-track decision for missile re-armament after 1980. The formation of the Electoral Alternative for Labour and Social Justice (WASG), a child of left trade unionists, left forces in the SPD and remnants of the independent left, and including those who turned away from the Greens over the Yugoslav War, became an expression of the fact that the societal left no longer had a political counterpart. With the Left Party, formed by the merger of the WASG and the PDS, a third force is now active in the party spectrum which is considered part of the broader left. Every organization and movement had concentrated itself on its own immediate goals \u2013 inevitably narrow-mindedly. Since the power of fundamental change was lacking, the disputes were largely structurally conservative, or were stuck in bare negation \u2013 a \u201cno\u201d lacking any credible opposite \u201cyes\u201d.\nThe inability is an expression of the defensiveness of the left to organize an actual broad social movement against the crisis policies first of the CDU/CSU (conservative) and SPD coalition, and now under the conservative-liberal government. The crisis of capitalism hit a left which lay in ruins: deeply de-legitimized, frustrated and stymied. As Hans-J\u00fcrgen Urban of the Metal-Workers\u2019 Union wrote: \u201cActually, a socio-economic systemic change should be in order. But for that, a functioning actor would be needed, a left willing and-capable of action \u2013 and none is in sight, far and wide. The left, rather than sucking political honey from the historic confirmation of its critique of capitalism, is displaying symptoms of paralysis.\u201d[3] However, this description of the situation in 2009 could now change in 2010 to 2012. From the fragmented, defensive, structurally conservative societal left, an integrated and offensive force for transformation could emerge, and overcome the split between Realpolitik and \u201cradical resistance\u201d with a commonality of \u201cradical Realpolitik\u201d.[4] To do so, however, the left would have to re-invent itself anew, with great courage and determination.\nThe crisis in the crisis\nWith the series of crises since 2008, precisely European capitalism has entered into a phase of instability. Particularly because it has developed a balance of capitalism, democracy and the welfare state over the course of a century, it is particularly endangered, for this balance is ever less possible to uphold in an era of financial market capitalism. Strong European capitalism has become a weak link in the chain of global financial market capitalism. Here, the various options of further development seem to collide with particular force: an authoritarian-imperial path to development, a social-democratic multilateral financial market capitalism, a de-civilized capitalism, and emancipative alternatives.[5] The rapid change amongst ruling factions, between conservative and social-democratic neo-liberalism, the unstable alliances designed to secure power, the forced incongruence of methods and goals, and especially the ever darkening horizon which contains no more promise, but only the threat of a long march through times of social cutbacks, unemployment and uncertainty \u2013 all these herald an epochal break: Business as usual is becoming impossible.[6] The policy of ever more torturous \u201cmuddling through\u201d is reaching its end. But this will only come true if this politics is brought to an end. It won\u2019t be enough \u2013 not any more \u2013 merely for the rulers to no longer be able and the citizens to no longer be willing. What is needed, is feasible alternatives which also have power on their side, the power of conviction, the power of cooperation and the ability to act and, the power of realistic creativity.\nOrganic societal crises[7] can be compared with theatre dramas. They consist of five acts: (1) the immediate outbreak of the crisis, which profoundly shakes the existing stability and makes extraordinary emergency measures necessary; (2) a crisis within the crisis, in which it becomes obvious that the measures taken will not be able to reduce that instability, but will only sharpen it further; (3) the break-up of the ruling block and the formation of alternative approaches; (4) the experimental following of new, often contradictory development paths; and (5) the implementation of a new mode of development on the basis of a new societal alliance, a ruling alliance.[8]\nThe years 2008 and 2009 represent the first act of the present crisis. This first act of a long drama was characterized by the eclectic co-existence of contradictory measures, which was to prove to be an impressive recipe of the rulers of their ability not to lose control in the crisis.[9] Monetarism and Keynesianism, European rescue packages and competitive countries, a Green New Deal and a cash-for-clunkers scheme, debt brakes and stimulus programmes, pay restraints and tax gifts, subsidized short-time work and investment pump-priming, sectoral minimum wages and stagnating pensions were all implemented at the same time. A block was forged uniting export-oriented corporations and banks, central structures of the organized workforce and the broad middle strata. This block was held together by a growing national debt and very contradictory policy approaches. Its foundations had already been laid after the electoral defeats of the social democrats and the general discrediting of neo-liberal policies, at the latest since the middle of the nought decade.\nThe ability to move in different directions at the same time is declining, however. The present crisis coalition is based not on a productive regime of accumulation; the regulatory means being used are completely contradictory; the interests are diverging; and the resources needed to purchase a consensus are being consumed further with every new crisis. The proud masters of the crisis have turned into the pitiful slaves of their own crisis management. \u201cBusiness-as-usual\u201d appears ever less probable.\nThe shock effects of 2010 in Europe have raised the curtain on the second act of the crisis, and first of all changed the perception of the situation: It has become undeniable that no improvement can be expected in the foreseeable future on the foundations of neo-liberal policies. Yet the recipes put forth by the prevailing political forces against the crisis are like treating the plague with cholera. The economic and financial crisis has now become a crisis of the nation-states and of the European Union. The nation-states, the lenders of last resort, are themselves endangered \u2013 financially, economically, socially and ultimately, too, politically. It is getting ever more difficult to satisfy competing interests. That however will break apart the coalition of forces which had secured stability in the first phase of the crisis. The \u201ccrisis in the crisis\u201d is at hand.\nTwo scenarios are relatively probable in Germany. On the one hand, the possibility cannot be entirely ruled out that the ruling block will manage somehow to hold the crisis coalition together for two or three years. The reserves for this have not yet been completely used up, and more importantly, no attractive feasible alternative has yet emerged. Without such an alternative, even a rather bad situation can last. On the other hand, drastic changes can no longer be ruled out. The instability has grown so great that a rapid change of policy on the part of certain power groups and a reorientation is becoming ever more probable. Further shocks could bring the structure of political stability to collapse. The chances for alternative approaches are increasing; the gains which members of the ruling block can hope for if they abandon ship are getting larger.\n2. THE CONTOURS OF A NEW HEGEMONY-CAPABLE LEFT\n\u201cA crisis is a productive condition,\u201d Max Frisch once said. \u201cOne must only remove its smack of catastrophe.\u201d The art of accomplishing this \u201conly\u201d, and of doing so primarily for the disadvantaged in society, is the art of leftist crisis control. That is what we need today.\nThe disintegration of neo-liberal hegemony will not inevitably be replaced by a left counter-hegemony; it will have to be created consciously. Both hegemony and counter-hegemony are contexts, relationships of different elements. There is neither a social nor a political protagonist with whose interests the interests of all other disadvantaged groups \u201cultimately\u201d coincide. As Laclau and Mouffe have argued, this means \u201cthat the relationship between social agents can only become more democratic to the extent than they accept the particularity and the limitation of their claims; thas is, only to the extent that they accept their mutual relations as being indispensably permeated with power\u201d[10]. Cooperation presupposes the differences and the self-interests of the participants and does not subsume them \u2013 but it can and must change them. Only by a transformation of interests based on solidarity which is at the same time productive will they acquire societal force, and escape from their subordination to the supremacy of the ruling circles. Only in a context in which they change themselves will they acquire the power to be effective, and can they hope for results which would not have been attainable alone. Counter-hegemony has three decisive conditions: (1) new alliances; (2) transformatory projects; and (3) cooperation-capable left forces with a realistic power option, with the strong democratic participation of the citizens.\nClass societies are pyramids of property and power. However, precisely because the burdens are so unevenly distributed, those on top need a certain degree of consensus around their rule. But how can this be ensured when the divisions in society are so forcefully aggravated? It was long supposed in the Marxist-inspired tradition that large social groups (classes and strata) had fixed interests, which they expressed more or less adequately, but that they could be hindered in doing so by \u201cfalse consciousness\u201d. However, the real contradictory nature of their social condition and the possibility of being able to take different roads make it possible for one and the same social group to pursue very different strategies, and in so doing, to concretely determine their interests in the first place. To mention only two examples: wage workers can seek to defend their interests through a nationalistically or even racially articulated defence against immigrants \u2013 and therefore vote for such parties as the Italian Lega Nord or the Austrian FP\u00d6, or else by developing a social state based on solidarity. Highly qualified women can be interested in maintaining a low-wage sector, so that such reproductive tasks work as housekeeping and child care are taken over from them inexpensively, or they can advocate highly qualified tax-financed public services.\nThe majority of the population of Germany can, in a somewhat simplified way, be divided into six large groups (see Table 1). They are differentiated first according to their position in the social process of reproduction (the diagonal arrow pointing from bottom left to the top right symbolizes increasing access to property, assets and power). Depending on their place in this system, the social groups relate more positively to the social state, or tend to support \u201cfree markets\u201d (the horizontal dimension); and are especially oriented to individual self-determination (libertarian values) or to communality (vertical dimension) (Graph 2). The upper strata with a higher degree of access to resources are divided because they are active in either of two sectors \u2013 the private sector \u2013 i.e., business \u2013 or the more publicly-characterised state sector, in the socially, culturally and human services oriented fields. The first sector is represented by market economy oriented and moderately authoritarian outlooks. Competition and directives are their guiding principles. On the other hand, the second group have a rather libertarian and social-state oriented values. They know about the importance of negotiation and compromise. Those who are excluded from access to property, assets and power want a strong social state and have to some extent solidarity-based, communal or authoritarian, or even racist outlooks. These distinctions are frequently modified by further factors such as gender or age; the political orientation changes accordingly.\nTable 1: Socio-political milieus in Germany\nTo win majorities, three alliances are possible. Each group can be actively present in two or three alliances and see their interests represented by these: (1) an alliance of the better-off, those who by qualification and position can have access to a relatively secure position and realize an above-average income; (2) a market-liberal authoritarian alliance; and, finally (3) a solidarity-based middle-bottom alliance (for more detail, see Brie 2007). None of these alliances is in a position to homogenize the various interests, values and goals it contains, but it must try to interconnect them differently in each instance. They are therefore also unstable and always contested. Since the social-libertarian middle strata tend to vote for the SPD, the Greens or in part for the Left Party, and the market-economy oriented middle strata tend to the FDP and CDU, the SPD and CDU must try especially to win over the bottom middle and lower social groups, if they want to become parties of government. If not, they need partners who have strong bastions among these groups. The party system forces them to not completely to forget the social question.\nThe alliance of the better off is a class alliance of the ruling market-centred elites and the upper middle strata. Schr\u00f6der and Fischer geared the red-green government to a politics of the Neue Mitte (new middle) which politically wrote off wage workers and the lower groups, and took the interests of the wealthy and of the \u201ctop achievers\u201d as their guideline. The Green New Deal\u2019s project of a new social contract also exhibits the essential features of an alliance of the better off in the framework of ecological modernization.\nThe market-liberal authoritarian alliance unites, under the predominance of the same elites, the private market-economy oriented middle strata, and ties them to the strata of the upper-middle and the marginalized, who hope that by excluding others (immigrants, \u201cfreeloaders\u201d, etc.), they can improve their own position and receive state support. The new conservatism in Germany, France and Italy aims at winning over the threatened sectors of the wage dependents and traditional lower strata for such a market-liberal authoritarian alliance, the hallmark of which is economic nationalism oriented towards the core EU countries. Competing for the same group are also the representatives of a \u201cfolk-nationalist anti-capitalism\u201d (see Kaindl 2007).\nA solidarity-based middle-bottom alliance would orient itself above all towards the interests of three groups: (a) the middle strata active especially in the public sector, but also as self-employed workers; (b) workers threatened by neoliberal policies; and (c) those affected by de-classing who are looking for solidarity-based solutions. They would need partners in that part of the political elites which, due to their anchoring in the state sector, wants to accommodate the general interest. This alliance would seek to tie together the various interests through entry projects of a social-ecological transformation.\nTransformatory projects\nThe situation of a structurally conservative individualization of defensive struggles can only be overcome by means of a common goal perspective which can provide all in common with better opportunities \u2013 be it greater social security, new development opportunities, or social advancement. Wolfgang Fritz Haug writes, with reference to Gramsci, \u201c\u2018Historically progressive\u2019 is a class formation thanks to its historical \u2018productivity\u2019, i.e., life prospects thanks to the expansivity of a concrete political-economic regime which it supports, thanks to which \u2018it advances all of society by not only satisfying existential requirements, but enlarges its leadership by the continual occupation of new industrial-productive areas of acitvity,\u2019 and thus feeds the credible expectations of individual life perspectives.\u201d[11] In the following, I will very briefly examine several such approaches.\nThey are not representative of the entirety of the left, but they refer to new developments which differ considerably from those after 2005.[12] The common origin of these concepts was the 2009 Bundestag elections, and the efforts to introduce alternative positions into the discussion.\nLet us take as an example the strategy \u201cGermany 2020\u201d developed by the SPD-associated Friedrich-Ebert Foundation before the parliamentary elections. It is based on the approach of \u201csocial growth\u201d, which is counterposed to neo-liberal growth policy, and is supposed to combine sustainability and justice. Securing demand and increasing productivity are central, but they are to be designed completely anew. This model too is buiilt on four columns:\n>> Increased productivity through investment in education; free and universal qualified child care; special support for people with immigrant backgrounds; above average public investment, etc.;\n>> Increased employment by massive expansion of a strong public and private service sector with high qualification, particularly in the areas of education and health; active labour market policies, and steps for improved compatibility of jobs and family, etc.;\n>> Ensuring domestic demand by a more just distribution of income and an expansionist financial policy by the ECB, and a tax and wage policy coordinated at the European level;\n>> Improvement in distribution by adjusting pay to match productivity increases, and a growing wage share based of high employment, adequate minimum wages and tax relief for lower incomes. [13]\nThis concept is also methodologically interesting in that it counterposes the \u201cbasic scenario\u201d to a \u201csocial growth\u201d scenario, and arrives at the conclusion that the considerably higher growth rate engendered by the social reorientation of economic policy, a very low unemployment rate, a balanced national budget, and a considerably greater participation of the poorer sectors in prosperity with shorter working times should be possible (Table 1). The horror scenarios of the collapse of the social security systems is continued ad absurdum, since social growth would also lead to a lower social insurance rates, even with improved output. While the lower and middle strata would profit to an above average degree from such social growth, the upper twenty per cent, too, would not be negatively affected, thanks to the overall increase in income.\nTable 2: Comparison of different scenarios of economic development \u2013 \u201eBusiness as usual\u201d vs. a \u201epolicy of social growth\u201c[14]- Key figures for the basic scenario and for the \u201csocial growth\u201d scenario\nThe common key elements of these and other strategies of left forces in Germany are (albeit with different weightings):\n>> the centrality of socio-ecological reconstruction;\n>> the development of a highly qualified service sector with strong public funding in the areas of education, health care and old-age care;\n>> the strengthening of the codetermination of state and employees/workers in business enterprises (economic democracy);\n>> the strict regulation of the financial markets, their subordination to the real economy, and the strengthening of public financial institutions, as well as a massive redistribution from top to bottom and from the private to the public sector;\n>> an orientation towards employees in the industrial and especially the service sectors, and towards disadvantaged societal groups, such as young people, the unemployed, pensioners and people of immigrant background, and also towards the sectors of an ecological transformation and information society.\nAll these approaches assume that the result will be a different model of development which can overcome the present scarcity of resources for social and ecological tasks and for global solidarity. These are conceptions of the expansion of economic efficiency in the area of services and resource productivity, particularly on the basis of socio ecological transformation. The implementation of these concepts requires f\u00edrst, a willingness to accept a relatively high level of national debt, so as to be able to initiate and consolidate the reconstruction process, and to realize rapid social effects. Only in this way can the social basis for such a transformation be secured. Like the New Deal or neo-liberalism, the socio-ecological transformation will have to write an uncovered cheque on the future for its initial phase. Second, tough intervention in the relations of distribution is inevitable \u2013 both for financial reasons and out of consideration for legitimacy and justice. Wage levels in Germany must be rapidly raised by concerted action, primarily in the service sector and for the lower wage groups, and excess fortunes made accessible to the public good by a moderate expropriation (\u201cmillionaires\u2019 tax\u201d,\u201cdeath duty\u201d, etc.), and an effective restriction on speculative transactions. The enormous economic, political and cultural influence of the financial elite and the rich must be overcome. Third, coordination of economic and social policy, and of tax and wage policy, would be necessary, at least within the European Union and especially between France and Germany. Corridors should be created to compensate for imbalances of exports over imports, bind social payments to the development standard \u2013 a higher standard would mandate the expansion of the welfare state \u2013 and link wages to a country\u2019s relative productivity. The Europe of negatives, of mere market integration,[15] is at an end. It has become obvious that the European Union cannot be had without an economic, social and environmental union. Fourth, the left must talk about the enormous possibilities which a socio-ecological reconstruction would provide for living together in solidarity and for an emancipative way of life. Producing differently and living differently must stop being a threat and become a hope. The real scandal is that we live beneath our human potential, that we constrict new technological and cultural potentials through the market and through consumerism. Today\u2019s wealth condemns many to poverty and impoverishes humanity, bad jobs, relationships without solidarity, the compulsion of the market, exclusion and precarity.\nDuring this second act of the crisis, there are a number of entry projects[16] which permit social and political protagonists to re-define their interests in the light of a possible new development path. A concrete alternative space is created, without which no real transformation is possible. But this space will remain only an abstract possibility, unless there is a fulfilment option. Only with the power to organize this space will a centre be created to which the various protagonists can refer.\nCooperation capable left protagonists, a realistic power option, and broad democratic movements\nThe trade unions and the social and political forces are dependent on a twin strategy of measured conflict and cooperation with the rulers, as long as no other option is recognizable. Protest and arrangement, all the way to participation and subordination, are unavoidable, if no change of direction seems possible. The gap between radicalism and political realism is widening. One and the same organisations follow contrary approaches in an almost schizophrenic way. Mobilisation \u201cfrom below\u201d runs up against narrow limits, beyond such single actions as the demonstrations against cuts in the social system or the G8 summits. Apart from the modest subcultures of convinced activists, which are held together by a high level of internal group dynamics, the willingness to act is determined by short-term indignation and recognizable chances of success. The potential available in Germany for the rejection of neo-liberal policies is therefore being unleashed only to a limited extent, due to the fact that the traditions of public protest are particularly weak here, and there are hardly any positive experiences. The \u201clong march through the institutions\u201d is the main path to political change in this country, and has at the same time repeatedly proved to be a dead end. Violence can emerge from such frustration.\nExtra-parliamentary protest can only be effective if it changes the conditions of the protagonists within the political system, and be it as a credible threat of the strengthening of competitors, or of being voted out. There is thus no either-or alternative \u2013 extra-parliamentary or parliamentary; rather, there is only the question of designing it, of the how. As Albrecht von Lucke has formulated it: \u201cOne thing is certain: Without a perspective of formulation \u2013 which ultimately means an orientation towards government \u2013 voters who are actually sympathetic and potential coalition partners will succumb to the enticement of power. [...] Without the connection of political ideas and concrete power options, the left wing faces political insignificance as a result of structural inability to govern. That would spell the definite end of the social-democratic century.\u201d[17]\nPower options are always also governmental options. Especially when basic change and a change of direction in politics is at stake, the problem arises as to who is to bear the costs of such a transformation, including the costs of the overcoming the resistance against such change. Only rarely are there privileged protagonists who are both powerful enough and have enough material interest in radical changes that they are willing to bear these costs alone. Institutional reforms require the state to distribute the costs of a transformation broadly, and at the same time make long-term binding decisions towards which the behaviour of protagonists can permanently reorient itself. Even policies of \u201cdismantling the state\u201d presuppose a state as the instance which defines the line between state and society.\nCautious attempts are appearing from various quarters to plumb the chances of an opening of the political agenda. Political crossover projects between parties are becoming popular, but are still far away from options for political power. Trade unions and social movements are continually trying to test the reaction to a policy of resistance. The anti-nuke issue has demonstrated the mass support that can be mobilized for extra-parliamentary protest, if it is recognizable that it is possible to influence policy effectively. However, this has not yet become a broad movement of movements, which reinforce each other. The interaction of party politics, trade unions, social initiatives and citizens has yet to become a common \u201cYes we can!\u201d A social and democratic hegemony is possible, but the necessary conditions for that are not yet all present.\nThe centre-left governments of the last ten or fifteen years were by and large governments based on neo-liberalism and financial market capitalism. To some extent, they tried to soften their effects \u2013 and were thus the \u201clesser evil\u201d \u2013 or endeavoured to slow down the policy of neo-liberalism. To some extent however, they became the virtual engines of the perfection of financial market capitalism. It was precisely then that they (1) inevitably undermined their own social base; (2) carried out projects which were in fundamental contradiction to the values of equality and social justice, as well as, often, of peace; and (3) split the left deeply and durably.\nTo the extent that the third act of the crisis is ripening, and that it is becoming inevitable that the course be set, the possibility of a new and different type of government is also becoming possible \u2013 a left government. It should contribute starting on the way to a really social, ecological and peaceful politics on the basis of a different economic, social and societal policy. The contours of such a politics are getting ever clearer.\nThe forces of the fragmented left must make up their minds: Are they convinced that a different politics is really possible? Do they have the courage to back a true change of direction? Are they ready to do everything necessary to ensure that the social and political alliances required for that purpose can be forged? Do they have the determination to themselves pay the price for such alliances, and not to overtax partners? Can they find a basis for cooperation beyond the\u201clowest common denominator\u201d?[18] After twenty years of an unleashed destructive financial market capitalism, now is the time: Hic Rhodus, hic salta!\n[1] Director of the Institute of Social Analysis, Rosa Luxemburg Foundation (Germany).\n[2] http://www.manager-magazin.de/magazin/artikel/0,2828,680306-2,00.html.\n[3] Hans-J\u00fcrgen Urban: Die Mosaik-Linke.

        "raw_content": "Former Kosovo leader Ceku arrested in Bulgaria\nBulgarian police have arrested the former prime minister of Kosovo on an international police warrant issued at Serbia\u2019s request. Agim Ceku is accused of war crimes by Serbia, which is now calling for his extradition.\nCeku, aged 59, was detained at the Gyushevo border checkpoint while crossing the Bulgarian border from Macedonia on Tuesday night. Currently he can be detained for up to 72 hours without charge.\nBelgrade insists that Ceku committed war crimes in Serbian-led Kosovo in 1998-1999.\nDuring this time he was the military chief of the Kosovo Liberation Army, which consisted of ethnic Albanians and was, at the time, regarded as a guerilla group.\nAfter the war, Ceku became a prominent figure in Kosovo, taking the Prime Minister's office in 2006 and actively promoting the region's independence.\nAgim Ceku stepped down from the post last year \u2013 a month before Kosovo declared its independence.\n\u201cAll the official bodies of the self-proclaimed Kosovo state include terrorists and bandits who had been in charge of the Kosovo Liberation Army. But NATO and the EU recognized them which, in essence, means they have pardoned them and Ceku, who is likely to escape unharmed again,\u201d Serbia's parliament member Zoran Krasic.\nAgim Ceku is not the only Kosovo figure to be accused of war crimes against Serbs. Several other leaders are also wanted by Belgrade, including Kosovo\u2019s current Prime Minister Hashim Thaci.\nEarlier this year Ceku was stopped in Columbia, but was simply expelled from the country. Few in Serbia expect that Bulgaria will allow Belgrade to try the former Kosovo Prime Minister.\nBulgaria is a NATO member, and one of more than 50 countries which recognize Kosovo as an independent state.\nMembers of Kosovo\u2019s Social Democratic party, which Ceku heads, appear optimistic about their leader's fate.\n\u201cWe expect him to be released soon but we don't know if that will happen tonight or tomorrow,\u201d assured Gezim Kasapolli, spokesperson for Kosovo\u2019s Social Democratic party.\nMr. Ceku is said to be held in custody in the Bulgarian city of Kyustendil on the west of the country where the local court will consider his case.\nCeku\u2019s detention comes despite repeated demands from UN officials in Pristina that the Belgrade-issued warrant be dropped.\nThis is not the first time that Ceku has been detained. Three years ago he was arrested in Slovenia and later in Hungary, but both countries declined to hand him over to Serbia.\nLast month Agim Ceku was deported from Colombia after he criticized Serbia for allegedly misusing its membership in Interpol.\n\u201cSome countries find technicalities to stop the extradition of Ceku\u201d\nUK police steps up fight against honor killings among immigrants\nItaly\u2019s invisible dead\nEurope starts extraditing Russian suspects\nForeign Legion rapist extradited to Russia\nVatican bank accused of laundering\n\u201cNazi-praising groups marginalized in Europe \u2013 but for how long?\u201d\nKey events in Bosnian war were fabricated - Karadzic\nOnce a thief, always a thief\nExtradition of British citizens to Greece causes controversy in UK",

Although the humble beef-patty-on-a-bun is not much more than 100 years old, you can\u2019t tell the story of its origin without outlining a far greater lineage, linking American businessmen, World War II soldiers, German political refugees, medieval traders and Neolithic farmers. The groundwork for the ground-beef sandwich was laid with the domestication of cattle (in Mesopotamia around 10,000 years ago), and with the growth of Hamburg, Germany, as an independent trading city in the 12th century.\nJump ahead to 1848, when political revolutions shook the 39 states of the German Confederation, spurring an increase in German immigration to the United States. With German people came German food: beer gardens flourished in American cities, while butchers offered a panoply of traditional meat preparations. Because Hamburg was known as an exporter of high-quality beef, restaurants began offering a \u201cHamburg-style\u201d chopped steak.\nIn mid-19th-century America, preparations of raw beef that had been chopped, chipped, ground or scraped were a common prescription for digestive issues. After a New York doctor, James H. Salisbury, suggested in 1867 that cooked beef patties might be just as healthy, cooks and physicians alike quickly adopted the \u201cSalisbury Steak\u201d. Around the same time, the first popular meat grinders for home use became widely available (Salisbury endorsed one called the American Chopper) setting the stage for an explosion of readily available ground beef.

We got in the car after that game, and he put two fingers into my chest and says, \u2018Remember, do what is right, not what\u2019s popular!\u2019\n\u201cThat really stuck with me. Everything I\u2019ve done in this job, I\u2019ve tried to do the right thing, even though it hasn\u2019t always been the most popular thing.\u201d\nSaco\u2019s father died in 1984 from cancer. He watched his son coach high school basketball in Lodi, but he didn\u2019t get to experience his son\u2019s greatest body of work. The old man would have been proud.\nSince 1993, Saco has been the most influential person in the section, the second largest of 10 in the state. Saco\u2019s vision and voice will be a significant loss upon his retirement at the end of August. His creative leadership led to the CIF State Bowl football games and the basketball Open Division, among other innovations. He\u2019s been a proponent of equality, ethics and sportsmanship. He vehemently stands for justice in high school athletics when it comes to undue influence, transfers or blatant recruiting and cheating. Without a governing leader like Saco, rules wouldn\u2019t be bent; they\u2019d buckle.\nSaco\u2019s job is unpredictable, never dull, equal parts uplifting and upsetting.\n\u201cWhenever I come to work,\u201d Saco said, \u201cI may have six or seven different issues thrown my way. Emails like, \u2018How come you didn\u2019t fire our football coach? You let him in the playoffs and they lost.\u2019 Well, we don\u2019t fire coaches. I\u2019ve been called \u2018Wacko Saco.\u2019 I\u2019ve been called the devil and many other profound things. You let it roll off your back but, yeah, some of it stings. We\u2019re not the bad guys here.\u201d\nCoaches and administrators largely have called Saco fair and firm. Saco views the interscholastic athletics experience as a crucial part of developing young lives, no matter how big or small the school. He added extra playoff divisions through the years to allow small schools, some with enrollments under 100 students, to have a championship stage of their own.\n\u201cIt\u2019s absolutely brutal what Pete has to go through, and he\u2019s the fall guy in people\u2019s eyes if they don\u2019t agree with realignment or a transfer, but he\u2019s had a big enough personality and shoulders to carry that burden,\u201d said Brad Gunter Jr., the basketball and baseball coach and athletic director at small-school Valley Christian Academy in Roseville. \u201cI know this about Pete: He has everyone\u2019s best interest at heart. He\u2019s treated us small schools just the same as the larger ones, and we appreciate that. Without a doubt, to a lot of us, he\u2019s the best commissioner in the state.\u201d\nSaco\u2019s most trying time as commissioner came in the summer and fall of 2007, when he headed a six-month investigation into the recruitment of 15 football players from American Samoa to Franklin High School in Stockton. Saco and the section office, receiving nearly no assistance nor admission from Franklin, imposed a five-year playoff ban for all Franklin athletics. After meeting with Franklin and the Stockton Unified School District, the ban was reduced to two years. It was later viewed by a federal judge as a national landmark case.\n\u201cIt had to be done,\u201d Saco said. \u201cIt was a very tough investigation when you\u2019re personally being followed, when you\u2019re personally being investigated, because it\u2019s always easier to throw it back on the individual who did the investigation. I get that. It was tough on my wife as well.\n\u201cIf you don\u2019t want to enforce rules, then you really can\u2019t get into this line of work. We are a regulatory agency. That\u2019s really what we do.\u201d\nThe first person Saco acknowledged when he announced his retirement was his wife of 35 years, Barbara. They\u2019re ready for a change of pace: Golf, travel, Giants games, dining.\n\u201cShe\u2019s my best friend,\u201d Saco said. \u201cWe weren\u2019t blessed to have our own children, but we have each other. We talk a lot, laugh a lot. I couldn\u2019t have done this job without her. I come home with stories, and she blows me away with her stories as she worked in human resources for years. We can relate. Soon, it\u2019ll be our time.\u201d",

(October 15, 2014)\nUS government agencies that missed a June 5, 2014 deadline for ensuring that their cloud computing systems met a set of baseline security standards appear unlikely to face repercussions. The Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) established the standards in late 2011. The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) created the FedRAMP program office and the Joint Authorization Board in 2011, but neither has the authority to enforce agency FedRAMP compliance.\n-http://www.nextgov.com/cloud-computing/2014/10/fedramp-toothless-unauthorized-cl\noud-systems-abound-agencies-igs-say/96569/\n[Editor's Note (Pescatore): There are really 3 major findings here: (1) The Federal CIO issued a \"cloud first edict\" back in 2011, before the FedRAMP process was operational, with no accredited services yet available. (2) OMB never provided guidance on contractual terms for government procurements of cloud services; and (3) Government agencies who routinely fail audits on asset inventory of the their own systems are failing audits of the inventory of the cloud services they use. The first two findings reflect on the \"Cloud First\" approach vs. \"Secure Cloud First\" that could have been pushed. The third finding is just another advertisement for the Critical Security Controls.\n(Murray): Government standards are usually written in the passive voice so as to avoid any accountability for the authors. The result includes avoiding accountability for those to whom the standards are intended to apply. ]\nStaples Breach (October 20, 2014)\nStaples is the latest retailer to have been identified as having likely experienced a data security breach. The Massachusetts-based office supply store chain is investigating \"a potential issue\" and has contacted law enforcement. Information from sources at banks in the northeastern US suggest that the breach affects stores in Pennsylvania, New York, and New Jersey.\n-http://krebsonsecurity.com/2014/10/banks-credit-card-breach-at-staples-stores/\n[Editor's Note (Honan): It is worrying to see such a large number of US retailers becoming victims of cybercrime. As there is no mandatory reporting in Europe (except for personal data breaches in Telecommunication companies) we shouldn't be too smug in thinking European retailers are more secure, it may simply be they are not telling anyone about the breaches.\n(Murrray): All retailers are at high risk. We must now assume that many more are compromised than know about it. Merchants should be actively looking for evidence of breaches. Consumers should join with the White House in requesting EMV (\"Chip\") cards. They should avoid the use of accounts where the issuers fail to comply, prefer merchants that are EMV ready, and reconcile their accounts on a timely basis. ]\nEight Industries Now Receiving Classified Cyber Threat Information (October 20, 2014)\nThe number of industries participating in the US Department of Homeland Security's Enhanced Cybersecurity Services Initiative has more than doubled since July 2014. The program provides participating companies with classified threat information that they can use to help protect their systems. As of July, just energy, communications, and defense industries were participating, but they have since been joined by the financial, water, chemical, transportation, and information technology industries. The voluntary program was previously open only to defense contractors, but in 2013 was expanded to include companies that manage the country's critical infrastructure.\n-http://www.nextgov.com/cybersecurity/2014/10/number-industries-getting-classifie\nd-cyberthreat-tips-dhs-has-doubled-july/96923/?oref=ng-HPtopstory\n[Editor's Note (Murray): Securely sharing intelligence with those best able to act on it is often as difficult as collecting it in the first place. ]\n1) BIG DATA SECURITY SURVEY: What are the biggest risks to your big data applications?

Otherwise Apple is showing that user privacy is not a core corporate value, just a marketing slogan to be trotted out occasionally.\n(Northcutt): This counts as inappropriate for sure. Apple could have positioned itself as the company that respects your privacy. There is a link above on how to ostensibly disable Spotlight. It is not hard; it has been possible since Mountain Lion.

The court ruled that obtaining cell tower location data from service providers in real-time constitutes a Fourth Amendment search and therefore requires a warrant. The case involves cell data from a provider but could likely be applied to devices like StingRays, which simulate cell tower signals.\n-http://www.wired.com/2014/10/florida-court-requires-warrant-cell-tower-data/\n-http://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2014/10/florida-court-come-back-with-a-warran\nt-to-track-suspects-via-mobile-phone/\n-http://www.scmagazine.com/court-says-warrantless-tracking-violates-fourth-amendm\nent-rights/article/378254/\n-http://www.floridasupremecourt.org/decisions/2014/sc11-2254.pdf\nWashington, DC Police and Stingray (October 20, 2014)\nDocuments obtained through a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request show that police in Washington, DC have had a StingRay cellular surveillance device since 2003, but it remained unused until 2009, when officers were trained in its use. StingRay is a trademarked name, but has come to serve as a generic term for the technology. The devices, also known as IMSI catchers, can determine the location of cell phones as well as intercept calls and text messages.

        "title": "Black Holes: The Life Cycle of a Star | Scholastic",
        "raw_content": "Exploring Our Sun\nBlack Holes: The Life Cycle of a Star\nIt's not science fiction! Grolier\u2019s The New Book of Knowledge details how stars cause this infamous phenomenom.\n\"Abandon all hope, ye who enter here,\" would be an appropriate warning for any space traveler foolish enough to approach a black hole. Black holes are proposed by astrophysicists as regions of space where gravity is so strong that the black holes act like stellar vacuum cleaners, sucking in matter and energy from space and allowing nothing, not even light, to escape.\nThe American physicist John Wheeler coined the term \"black hole\" in 1969, but, in fact, the theory has been around for much longer. As far back as 1783, English astronomer John Michell suggested that if a star were massive enough, it would have such a strong gravitational field that any light leaving the star would immediately be dragged back to the star's surface.\nMichell's theories were largely ignored until 1939, when physicists Robert Oppenheimer and Hartland S. Snyder demonstrated that, based upon Albert Einstein's general theory of relativity, it would be possible for a star to collapse to the point where it would become a black hole.\nThis artist's concept of frame dragging in a black hole shows the curvature of space-time. No, it's not science fiction! Frame dragging is where the fabric of space (not just matter) is literally shifted by the gravitational pull of a black hole. A black hole is a region defined as the ultimate expression of gravity. (NASA)\nHow a Star Ages\nIn order to understand how a star could collapse into a black hole, it is first important to understand the life cycle of a star. A star is, essentially, a giant fusion reactor. At the central core of the star, swirling atoms of hydrogen gas collide with one another and merge to form helium. In the process of fusing together, these hydrogen atoms release a tremendous amount of energy in the form of heat.\nAt the same time, the star as a whole is continuously struggling against the inward pull of gravity. The inward gravity is from the central core of the star, which is surrounded by a massive envelope of gas. This inward pull is so immense that the star is always on the verge of collapsing under its own weight.\nWhat prevents the star from collapsing? Tremendous internal pressure that is generated by the extreme heat at the star's core, which pushes outward, counterbalancing the inward pull of gravity. In our own sun, for example, the temperature at the core is about 25,000,000 \u2014 Fhrenheit (14,000,000\u2014C), generating pressure 100 billion times the air pressure at sea level on Earth.\nAfter thousands of millions of years, however, a star comes to the end of its hydrogen fuel supply. It starts to cool and contract. What happens next will depend entirely on the mass of the star.\nSmall stars, such as our Sun, will collapse to form objects called white dwarfs. About the size of the planet Earth, white dwarfs resist further collapse with internal pressure caused by electrons spinning at near the velocity of light. White dwarfs are very dense objects: 1 cubic inch of white dwarf weighs several tons. But they are considered lightweights when compared to neutron stars.\nNeutron stars are the evolutionary end products of larger stars \u2014 those 1.4 to 2 times as large as the Sun. Electrons cannot resist the greater gravitational collapse of such stars, and are pushed into atomic nuclei where they combine with protons to form uncharged, tightly packed neutrons. Neutron stars are only a few miles in diameter. They weigh about 1 million tons per cubic centimeter. They can resist further collapse only by invoking the strongest force in nature \u2014 appropriately called the \"strong force\" \u2014 the force that binds together an atomic nucleus.\nThe strong force halts the imploding matter so abruptly \u2014 in a tenth of a second \u2014 that the collapsed stellar core acts as an explosive charge. The resulting explosion in the star's outer regions is called a supernova. Such celestial fireworks, observed by Chinese astronomers in July 1054, produced the Crab nebula, a cloud of gas that still writhes and glows today, 4,000 light-years from Earth.\nWhat happens to a dying star that is more than twice as large as the Sun? Even the strong force cannot halt its in-falling momentum. It collapses completely, beyond the neutron-star stage, to an even smaller, denser object. Back in 1939, Oppenheimer and Snyder calculated that the gravitational field at the surface of such an object would become so strong that even light (traveling at a speed of 186,282 miles \u2014 299,792 kilometers \u2014 per second) would be unable to escape. According to Einstein's theory of relativity, nothing in the universe can travel faster than light. Therefore, if light cannot escape, neither can anything else. The collapsed star becomes what we call a black hole.\nPerhaps the best way to visualize a black hole is to imagine, for a moment, that space is a flat rubber sheet. If you were to drop a steel ball on the sheet, the rubber would curve downward, forming a shallow hole. This, in a nutshell, is how Einstein interpreted gravity. According to Einstein, gravity exists because massive objects bend the fabric of space around them. If, for example, we rolled a small marble across our rubber sheet, it would roll around the top of the hole formed by the steel ball, much in the way that the Earth orbits around the Sun.\nNow imagine that we could increase the weight of the steel ball that we dropped on our rubber sheet. As the weight increased, the ball would sag farther and farther downward, creating a deep \"gravity\" hole. Eventually the rubber would be stretched so tight that the top of the hole would pinch together, closing off from the outside world the region containing the steel ball. Similarly, a collapsed star could eventually become so dense that it would curve space completely around on itself, isolating it from the rest of the universe.\nHow far would a star have to collapse before it \"disappeared\" from the visible universe? Astronomers refer to that critical size as the \"event horizon\" (otherwise known as the \"Schwarzschild radius,\" named after German physicist Karl Schwarzschild). The event horizon is the outer boundary of a black hole, the exact point at which light rays fail to escape. The horizon acts as a one-way membrane \u2014 light and matter can cross the horizon into a black hole, but once inside, the horizon can never be recrossed.\nThe size of the event horizon is proportional to the mass of the collapsing star. Typically, the event horizon of a star would be on the order of miles. (For example, a star 10 times as massive as our Sun would have a Schwarzschild radius of 18.6 miles \u2014 30 kilometers.)\nYet, according to our current knowledge of theoretical physics, once a star starts collapsing, no known force can stop it. It will continue to shrink past its event horizon, smaller and smaller, until it becomes a \"singularity\" \u2014 a mathematical point with zero volume and infinite density. This singularity lies at the very center of a black hole.\nExploring a Black Hole\nIf an astronaut were to attempt to visit a black hole, it would be a one-way trip. Before the astronaut even arrived at the event horizon, he or she would encounter tremendous tidal forces exerted by the black hole. Imagine, for example, that the astronaut is falling feetfirst toward the hole. The gravitational force pulling on the legs would be considerably stronger than the gravitational force pulling on the head. The difference between those two forces would stretch the astronaut like a piece of taffy.\nAs if that weren't bad enough, every single atom in the astronaut's body would be pulled toward the singularity at the black hole's center. For the astronaut the sensation might be similar to being squeezed by a giant fist.\nAfter being stretched and squeezed by the black hole's gravitational forces, our intrepid space traveler would resemble a strand of spaghetti, and would likely not be in the mood for any further exploration.\nLet's imagine for a moment that we could instead send a robot probe to investigate the black hole, one that could somehow stay intact despite the tremendous tidal forces. For the sake of discussion, we will mount a clock and a light source on the outside of our probe.\nIf we were watching the robot back on Earth, we would notice a curious phenomenon. The light source mounted on the side of the probe would start to change color. If the light, for instance, started out green, it would turn yellow, and then red as it got closer and closer to the event horizon of the black hole.\nThis is because light is composed of particles known as photons. As the photons move away from the black hole, they expend some of their energy as they try to escape from the hole's tremendous gravitational pull. The closer they are to the event horizon, the more energy they need to pull away.\nThe energy of a photon is proportional to the frequency of its radiation. As a result, light that loses energy will have a reduced frequency, and therefore a longer wavelength. This effect is known as \"gravitational redshift.\" When light has a long wavelength, it is red in color.\nEventually, as the robot probe moves closer and closer to the event horizon, the light source will seem to disappear from view. The wavelength of the light will have become so long that it can only be detected with infrared and radio telescopes.\nJust above the event horizon of the black hole, the wavelength of the light will approach infinity. Theoretically, radiation from the light source would still reach us back on Earth, but by then the wavelengths would be so long that no known scientific instruments would be able to detect them.\nMeanwhile, the clock mounted on the side of our robot probe would also be behaving rather oddly. According to Einstein's theory of relativity, time slows down in the presence of a strong gravitational field \u2014 at least as viewed by an outside observer. As the probe got nearer and nearer to the black hole, astronomers back on Earth would notice that the clock was ticking more and more slowly.\nThe clock would continue to slow down, until the probe arrived at the event horizon, at which point the clock would stop altogether. The probe would appear frozen in time, hovering at the brink of the black hole for the rest of eternity.\nRelativity predicts, however, that from the perspective of the robot, time would not seem to be affected in any way. The probe would arrive at the event horizon and enter the black hole without the clock slowing down for even an instant. Yet our dutiful robot explorer would have only a fraction of a second to contemplate this peculiar law of nature, at which point it would be pulled toward the center of the black hole, where it would encounter the singularity and be crushed to infinite density.\nProving That Black Holes Exist\nAll of this might sound very strange, and, in fact, for many years the majority of astronomers and physicists were reluctant to believe it. (The prominent English astronomer Sir Arthur Eddington even declared that there must be \"a law of Nature to prevent a star from behaving in this absurd way!\") If astronomers were to believe in black holes, they wanted more than just mathematical equations on a blackboard; they wanted hard, physical evidence.\nSuch evidence became available in 1967, when two British astronomers, Jocelyn Bell and Antony Hewish, discovered objects in space that were emitting regular pulses of radio waves. At first the astronomers thought that they had made contact with an alien civilization in a distant galaxy. They even named the objects \"LGMs,\" for Little Green Men. Eventually, however, astronomers came to the conclusion that the objects were rotating neutron stars, emitting radiation in the form of narrow beams. Like a celestial lighthouse, each time the neutron star spun toward Earth, astronomers could detect a pulse. Hence, these objects were named pulsars.\nThis was the first hard evidence that neutron stars actually exist. If a star could collapse into an object as small as a neutron star, it then seemed reasonable to assume that it could collapse to an even smaller size and become a black hole.\nOne problem remains. How do you find a black hole? They aren't as accommodating as neutron stars, in that they don't emit easily detectable beams of radiation. In fact, according to conventional theory, black holes don't emit anything at all.\nAstronomers saw a way out of this dilemma. Black holes exert an enormous gravitational force on nearby objects. So although scientists can't see a black hole\"in the flesh,\" so to speak, they can observe how it would affect its surrounding environment.\nTo date, binary-star systems offer the best hope for locating a black hole. Astronomers have detected many such systems, where two stars orbit around one another. In some cases the astronomers have observed only one visible star, which seemed to be in orbit around an unseen companion. It is possible that the companion might be a star too faint to be seen from Earth. It is also possible, however, that the second object could be a black hole.\nIf a black hole were part of a binary-star system, its enormous tidal forces would pull gaseous material off the surface of the neighboring star. Like water draining out of a bathtub, the gaseous material would slowly spiral into the black hole, forming a swirling disk of gas around the event horizon, a phenomenon that astronomers refer to as an accretion disk.\nWithin the accretion disk, compression and internal friction would heat the gas to temperatures as high as 1,800,000\u2014 F (1,000,000\u2014 C). When gas gets this hot, it radiates tremendous energy in the form of X rays detectable by astronomers.\nIn 1970, a United States artificial satellite, the Uhuru, was launched off the coast of East Africa. (Uhuru is the Swahili word for \"freedom.\") Its purpose was to detect sources of X rays while above the interference of Earth's atmosphere. Uhuru has found more than 100 stars emanating X-ray pulses. One of the most powerful X-ray sources was Cygnus X-1, located about 6,000 light-years from Earth.\nCloser examination of Cygnus X-1 revealed it to be a binary-star system, with a supergiant star orbiting around an unseen companion. By measuring the velocity and the orbital period of the supergiant star, astronomers were able to roughly calculate the mass of the unseen object. The object was estimated to be at least six solar masses (six times the mass of the Sun), far too massive to be either a white dwarf or a neutron star. By 1974, astronomers concluded that Cygnus X-1 must contain a black hole.\nIn 1997, astronomers found in the core of the active galaxy NGC 6521 what appears to be a warped, dusty disk swirling around a supermassive black hole, giving them the first direct line of sight into the immediate environment of a black hole.\nIn January 2000, astronomers found what may be the closest black hole to Earth \u2014 a mere 1,600 light years away. Located near the center of the Milky Way in the direction of the constellation Sagittarius, the black hole emits gamma rays continuously rather than in flashes or bursts.\nAnd deep within the core of the distant galaxy NGC 4395, astronomers discovered what may be a new type of mid-mass black hole, weighing perhaps as \"little\" as 10,000 to 100,000 Suns.\nPerhaps the best black-hole candidate yet discovered is a binary-star system that goes by the uninspiring name A0620-00. Like Cygnus X-1, A0620-00 emits intense levels of X-ray radiation. The binary system has a visible orange dwarf star, which orbits around a dark, unseen mass. In the late 1980s, astronomers studied the motions of the orange dwarf and estimated that the star's dark companion was 3.2 times the mass of our Sun.\nWith a mass that large, the dark object was placed high on the black-hole suspect list. But in order to get a more accurate estimate, astronomers would have to measure the velocity of the dark object. At first that seemed impossible: How can you measure an object that you cannot even see?\nThe Hubble Telescope has found seemingly conclusive evidence for massive black holes at the cores of many galaxies throughout our universe. One such galaxy, known as M87, is bright enough to see with a small backyard telescope. Others are distant galaxies with highly energetic nuclei. In some of the galaxies, the Hubble Telescope has detected disks of material spiraling inward toward the black hole; in other galaxies, it has found beams of energetic radiation and gaseous knots being ejected at tremendous speeds.\nEnglish physicist Stephen Hawking suggested that radiation might not only exist in the vicinity of a black hole, but that it actually might be leaking from the hole itself. Energy leaking from a black hole? It sounds impossible. But Hawking says that black holes emit radiation in the form of subatomic particles that do not obey the traditional laws of physics. Such \"virtual\" particles, as Hawking calls them, can be created in pairs in empty space, only to instantly collide and annihilate each other. If such a pair were to come into being near a black hole, one particle would be sucked in, while the other would escape into space.\nAs a black hole loses energy, it would also lose a proportionate amount of mass. Hawking's theory suggests that there might come a time when a black hole will lose so much mass that it will no longer be able to curve space around itself. The black hole would cease to be a black hole, and the remaining mass would likely explode outward, with a force equivalent to millions of hydrogen bombs.\nBut don't look up in the sky expecting to see a fireworks display of exploding black holes. A large black hole lives a very long time. More specifically, it would take trillions upon trillions of years for it to lose enough energy to explode outward. The universe itself has been around for only 20 billion years.\nYet it may be possible that very small black holes, formed in the early days of the universe, might be exploding just about now, releasing energy in the form of gamma rays, equivalent to about 100 million volts of electricity.\nAstronomers are now searching the skies for just such bursts of gamma radiation. If found, then astronomers could verify what Stephen Hawking has been saying for the last 20 years: \"Black holes ain't so black.\"\nIn 1895 H. G. Wells wrote a book about a device that could carry a man back and forth through time. The book was called The Time Machine, and for a century after it was published, the concept of time travel remained a favorite topic among writers of science fiction.\nIn 1988, however, science fiction moved closer to becoming science fact when American physicist Kip Thorne and his colleagues at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) published a paper in the prestigious journal Physical Review Letters, titled \"Wormholes, Time Machines, and the Weak Energy Condition.\"\nThorne didn't actually publish a blueprint for a do-it-yourself time machine. He speculated that an \"arbitrarily advanced civilization\" might be able to find a loophole in the laws of physics that would allow individuals to travel through time.\nThe loophole that Thorne had in mind is what physicists call a \"wormhole.\" A wormhole is similar to a black hole, but with one noteworthy difference. At the bottom of a black hole, there is a singularity, a mathematical point of infinite mass through which nothing can pass.\nA wormhole, by contrast, has no bottom. It has two \"mouths\" connected by a \"throat.\" It is, essentially, a tunnel through space. A space traveler entering one mouth of a wormhole might emerge from the second mouth only a few seconds later, but halfway across the galaxy.\nEinstein's equations predict that wormholes exist, although nobody has ever found one. American physicist John Wheeler has suggested that a good place to look for one would be at a submicroscopic level, where random fluctuations occur in the fabric of space-time. In such an environment, wormholes would spontaneously appear and collapse, giving space a frothy, foam-like appearance.\nKip Thorne suggests that an advanced civilization could pull a wormhole out of this foam, enlarge it, and then move its openings around the universe until the wormhole assumed a desired size, shape, and location. Unfortunately, once such a wormhole was created, it would be highly unstable. If a space traveler entered the wormhole, the throat might instantly pinch shut. Even moving at the speed of light, the space traveler might be unable to reach the other side of the wormhole before it collapsed around him or her.\nIn order to avoid such a catastrophe, the Caltech physicists recommend that our hypothetical advanced civilization thread the throat of the wormhole with what they call \"exotic material.\" In order to prop open a wormhole a half a mile or so across, the material would have to possess a radial (outward) tension comparable to the pressure at the center of a neutron star. Kip Thorne believes that there is a 50\u201350 chance that the laws of physics permit such a substance to exist.\nOnce our \"arbitrarily advanced scientists\" finished building a safe, traversable wormhole, they would be ready to convert it into a time machine. At this point they would rely upon Albert Einstein's general theory of relativity. According to Einstein, time slows down for a moving object when it is measured by a stationary observer.\nThis is often illustrated with what is known as the \"twin paradox.\" Imagine that you have twin brothers, named Bill and Ted, each 20 years old. Bill takes off in a spaceship, while Ted stays back on Earth. Bill's destination is a star 25 light-years away. (A light-year is the distance that a beam of light can travel in one year.) His spaceship can attain a speed of 99.9 percent of the speed of light. From Ted's point of view, Bill will be gone for 50 years (25 years to reach the star, plus 25 years to return). However, from Bill's point of view on board the spaceship, the entire trip will last only one year. This effect is known as \"time dilation.\" When Bill returns to Earth, he will be only 21 years old, but his brother Ted will be a 70-year-old man.\nNow, instead of two brothers, imagine that we are dealing with two mouths of a wormhole. Our advanced civilization could move one end of the wormhole, perhaps by using a heavy asteroid or a neutron star as a kind of gravitational tugboat. If the mouth of the wormhole were accelerated to a high enough speed and then returned to its original position, it would behave just like our space-traveling twin brother. A clock fixed to the moving mouth would tick more slowly than one at the stationary mouth.\nFor instance, the clock outside the accelerated mouth might read 12:00 noon, but the clock outside the stationary mouth would read 1:00 p.m. By passing from one mouth to the other, a space traveler could move back and forth through time.\nHow far could our traveler move through time? That would depend upon how long and how fast the wormhole mouth is accelerated. If the mouth were moved at 99.9 percent of the speed of light for 10 years, the time difference between the two mouths would be nine years and 10 months. Theoretically, if you accelerated a wormhole mouth fast enough and long enough, the time difference between the two mouths could be stretched across several centuries.\nThere is, however, a limitation to Kip Thorne's time machine. Common sense tells us you cannot travel back to a time before you created the wormhole and accelerated one of the mouths through space. After all, what we're doing is exploiting the relative rate at which time passes under the effects of speed. So, unfortunately, you could not pop back through time to visit the dinosaurs. Unless, of course, you were lucky enough to find a time hole that had already been constructed by an advanced civilization several million years ago.\nGravity Planets Sun Universe and Stars\nStudents will learn about space with these leveled activities and lessons for different skills and grade ranges.",

        "raw_content": "Green campaigners against an artificial beach at Lung Mei lose challenge against the government's refusal to revoke a permit for works to begin\nCHEUNG CHI-FAI Chris Lau\nPlans to build a man-made beach at Lung Mei in Tolo Harbour cleared a legal hurdle yesterday, when the courts dismissed a judicial challenge filed by green activists striving to protect the local ecology.\nThe activists vowed to consider other options to preserve the coastal area in Tai Po, although they had not decided whether to appeal against the ruling.\n\"We are extremely dismayed by the judgment,\" Ho Loy, who lodged the judicial review on behalf of the Save Lung Mei Alliance, said after the Court of First Instance delivered its verdict.\n\"As for whether [further] legal action is the best option, we'll have to study it as a team first, but if we can find a better way, we will definitely choose that.\"\nThe idea of an artificial beach at Lung Mei came from Tai Po District Council, which wanted to cater for residents without access to a bathing beach. It will stretch for 200 metres, with room for 4,000 swimmers.\nActivists doubt the ecological value of the site has been properly assessed, after they registered sightings of a rare seahorse and rare species of fish in the area.\nTheir application for the judicial review came long after the Environmental Protection Department issued a permit back in 2010 for works to start and after lawmakers had approved project funds of HK$200 million in 2012.\nBefore turning to the courts, the alliance last year sought to get the Environmental Protection Department head and the chief executive in council - meaning acting in consultation with the Executive Council - to exercise their powers to cancel the permit.\nOne of the arguments raised by the alliance was the lack of a specific ecological evaluation on a rare creature known as the spotted seahorse in an assessment of the coast approved by the director in 2008.\nThe absence of such an evaluation made the environmental assessment \"incomplete, misleading and wrong\". The project could result in more adverse impacts on the local ecology, the alliance said.\nYesterday, Judge Thomas Au Hing-cheung dismissed Ho's challenge of the refusals by the director and the chief executive in council to revoke the permit.\nIn a 48-page written judgment, Au said their refusals were neither illegal nor unreasonable.\nHe said an assessment of the seahorse was not a mandatory requirement under the law and the director had made a professional judgment on the need for it.\nAu also said the chief executive in council had considered all opinions presented to it in coming to the conclusion that the beach project would not adversely affect the ecology of Lung Mei.\nThe Civil Engineering and Development Department said it \"noted\" the judgment, which it believed could further establish the \"legality\" of the project and ease public concerns about it.\n\"We will continue to monitor the situation, and push ahead with the construction as fast and as practically as possible,\" a spokeswoman said.\n\"We will also assess the impacts of the judicial review on the costs and work progress.\"\nA spokesman for the Environmental Protection Department said it welcomed the verdict.\nThis article appeared in the South China Morning Post print edition as: Tai Po beach clears court hurdle",

        "raw_content": "Many young people look forward to finding their soul mate, and most of them have their own vision of how their life will be far into the future. They see a long term relationship as a process of growing together as a couple, and they believe the support of their partner will help them reach their goals in life. Each of them may have separate dreams, but helping their partner is part of what makes their relationship special. Unfortunately, they will find many issues to solve along the road of life. Solving them together can become yet another tie that helps bind them into a happy relationship that will endure for decades.\nThe Experience of Aging\nYoung people seldom believe they will experience the health issues they see older couples struggling with, but time will eventually catch up with them if they stay together. Supporting each other as they age is just one of the benefits of being within a relationship, and it is generally something that occurs slowly during their decades of love. For those who are dealing with the experience of aging, they will often find that just knowing their partner is there for them will make it easier to endure. Many medical issues are long term, but a partnership that can survive them will be one to be cherished for as long as they are both able to hold on to it.\nThe Pain of Living\nThere are many times in life when pain is a part of it, but young people tend to experience more emotional pain than physical. Older couples have found that many of the deeply emotional issues solve themselves over time, and they tend to find the pain of living is centered in physical issues. For them, their aging bodies begin to betray them at a time when their lives have become to find the smoothness of the road. Their partner will do their best to help, but they may not always be able to completely erase the pain being experienced. Taking a partner to doctors and specialists is often part of their life together, and being supported emotionally through this time can make the situation much easier to endure.\nThe Loss of Senses\nThere are few people who live all the decades of their life without experiencing loss, but the loss of their own senses can be heartbreaking. Those who go blind over time can no longer see the face of the one they love, and they must find new ways to connect and cherish their partner. For those who begin losing their ability to hear, a visit to the doctor for ear wax removal Stockport or a hearing test Stockport might be the solution. Others may experience permanent hearing loss, but modern hearing aids Stockport can help them hear the voice of a loved one. At AJC Hearing, solutions to these issues are their business.\nStaying with a partner over the years has become an important issue in modern society, and many couples do manage to work through the problems of life. When they arrive near the finish line, there may be physical issues to overcome, but mutual support can make it easier for them to find their way as they have over their many decades as a couple.",

        "raw_content": "Great time of year for farmers\nMay 30, 2011 at 2:00 AM Jan 3, 2012 at 8:37 AM\nThe Portsmouth Farmers Market last Saturday was overflowing with greens, vegetable plants, herbs, flowers and meats. (Don't worry, city of Portsmouth, nary a chicken in sight, much to my consternation. But that's a different story.)\nNext Saturday, my hometown farmers market in York, Maine, opens. And so begins another season of abundance from Mother Earth.\nI have been fortunate recently to be among the people working on a publication that Seacoast Media Group is printing to honor the 25th anniversary of the York Land Trust, the Great Works Regional Land Trust and the Center for Wildlife in Cape Neddick. As such, I have been reading and writing about family farms.\nGood news! While the numbers have gone down precipitously over the long term, in recent years as farmers markets and community-supported agriculture shares have proliferated, so too are small farms on the increase.\nWe consumers of the fruits of the earth are beginning to make a real difference for the small farmer. One of the farmers with whom I spoke lost his land in Massachusetts due to the economy, but found a farm in southern York County that had an easement on it already so he could buy it for farmland prices and not development prices. He puts the second crop in the ground this year.\nRiverside Farm in North Berwick, which was at the Portsmouth Farmers Market, tried winter production this past year for the first time, keeping me in greens in January. It was so successful they're doing it again this coming winter.\nFor those of us who care about keeping our food as local as we can, I want to recommend an evening at the York Public Library on Sunday, June 5. The Maine Farmland Trust commissioned two filmmakers to go around the state and film \"the challenges and opportunities\" of farming.\nThe result is \"Meet Your Farmer,\" eight short films that in total last only an hour, but show \"this funny, sad, uplifting, important part of the Maine way of life,\" said Erin Herbig of the Trust.\nThe filmmakers themselves are an interesting duo. Cecily Pingree is a daughter of Maine Congresswoman Chellie Pingree, and Jason Mann is sister Hannah Pingree's husband. The two own Pull-Start Pictures, a family business, and Cecily sits on the board of the Trust.\nBut you certainly don't have to be a Mainer to enjoy this series. Farming is farming, and any Seacoast resident and particularly local New Hampshire farmers would find the films worthwhile.\nThe evening is sponsored by the Great Works, Kittery and York land trusts. Melissa Paly of the Kittery Land Trust knew about the films and worked to bring them here.\nAfter the showing, York farmers John and Abe Zacharias will be on hand for discussion. If you don't already know, it's worth walking a mile (well ... actually, yes, it's worth walking a mile) to taste some of Zach's corn in August.\nAlso, Margot Simonds and Robert Munn, who own Rumsey Farm in York, will be in attendance. They have taken yet another twist on the \"staying alive\" theme by offering children the opportunity to spend a week on the farm taking care of animals and growing food.\nSo, if you've a mind to learn a little more about the farmers who make the food we all enjoy, come to the library in York at 7 p.m. Sunday.\nP.S.: These three land trusts have teamed up with the Center for Wildlife, the White Pine Program in York, the Mount Agamenticus Conservation Program and Choose to be Healthy Partnership to host a great Web site, www.gatewaytomaine.org. Take a look. Every outdoor program that any of them are holding is listed. Great for kids and parents. Great for adults only. Very cool.",

There's also a $24 million bauble for a flock of plaintiffs' lawyers.\nThe suit accused the major makers and sellers of cosmetics of agreeing that none would allow the sales price of any product to dip below the manufacturer's suggested retail price. Court papers filed Friday alleged a system of subsidies, profit guarantees, buy-backs of unsold products, pressure and coercion to prevent price competition.\n\"Virtually every woman who buys cosmetics knows that department store cosmetics are never discounted, never go on sale and are priced identically in any department store in any city throughout the country,\" said Terry Gross, one of the plaintiffs' lawyers. \"This kind of conduct does not happen in a competitive environment without collusion.\"\nThe defendants denied wrongdoing.\n\"We strongly disagree with the claims and have moved to settle to get on with our business and not get tangled in a protracted lawsuit,\" said Sally Susman, spokeswoman for the Estee Lauder Cos., which first disclosed the settlement this week in a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.\nThe settlement requires approval by a federal judge.\nAll sides say the giveaway is 12 to 18 months away, an interval that will include court proceedings and a period for companies to manufacture a new assortment of products specially intended for the settlement. The products will be \"in accord with the name and prestige of the companies,\" said another plaintiffs' lawyer, Joseph M. Alioto.\nSome details are still being arranged, like how much will be given away by each company and at each store. But once it's all worked out, anyone who bought cosmetics at any of the stores between May 29, 1994, and June 1 of this year will be able to go to the counter without a receipt and pick up a free product.\nDistribution will take probably less than a week and is expected to be limited to one item per customer, Alioto said. Another source said the limit may be pegged to dollar value rather than the number of items.\nThe settlement also includes a ban on future price fixing.\nBesides Estee Lauder, the defendants are manufacturers Boucheron, Chanel, Christian Dior, Clarins, Conopco, Guerlain and L'Oreal; retailers Bloomingdale's, Dillard's, Gottschalk's, May Department Stores, Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom, Saks and Target; and Federated Department Stores, the Bloomingdale's parent company.",

        "raw_content": "Urinary stones are formed when your urine contains more of crystal-forming substances like calcium, oxalate and uric acid than the fluid which can dilute it. Further, your urine may lack substances that prevent crystals from sticking together, leading to an ideal situation for stones to form.\nFor many of you, this could be a frequent occurrence. Most of them are so small that they pass out of your body when you urinate. Then there are those few which are slightly bigger and cause you pain. In rare cases, there might be some stubborn stones that get too big for passing through the tract and get stuck midway, causing acute pain and infection. In case of an infection, urologists recommend an easy surgical procedure for immediate removal of the stone.\nBut there are ways to tackle this issue with a little bit of determination. The important thing to do is to be educated about urinary stones and ways to avoid its formation. So let us dig a little deeper into the world of urinary stones-\nThere are different types of stones which are formed as a result of different food intake. Calcium stones are the most common and forms due to excessive salt intake and metabolic abnormalities. Uric acid stones are caused by consuming excessive animal protein. Struvite stones are produced by bacteria and cystinuria is a genetic kidney disease that causes cystine stones.\nKidney stone formation can be hereditary. It can be also due to dehydration and obesity. This explains why some people are more prone to stone formation.\nEven if you develop kidney stones frequently, learning about them and long-term care can decrease the chances of getting one. Diet changes and regular checkups at our urology clinic in Dubai will help you keep kidney stones at bay.\nRegulating your diet can help you a lot in coping with a kidney stone and its related issues. Drinking water is the easiest and most effective way to fight stones. Make it a point to drink enough water to pass 2 liters of urine every day. That amounts up to 8 ounces of water per day.\nGetting enough calcium in your daily diet can help in lowering the level of oxalates, which is a prime cause of kidney stones. Reduced sodium intake is another recommended dietary change.\nApart from helping your kidneys, it also does good to your heart and blood pressure. Consuming a lot of animal protein like red meat, poultry, eggs, and seafood tends to increase the uric acid levels in your body leading to stone formation. Also, oxalate-rich food items like beets, chocolate, spinach, and nuts can contribute to kidney stones. Urologists advise you to avoid these food items or to consume them in smaller amounts if you suffer from stones. Follow these simple food rules and drink plenty of water to keep your kidneys healthy. You can also do your checkups at our urology clinic in Dubai. Say goodbye to kidney stones!",

        "raw_content": "Golden age of the neo-young\nWho says we have to act our age? For many retirees, the older years are a delightful rediscovery of young passions.\nA group of retirees have fun practicing photography at a park as part of a photography course at a school for the elderly.\nDiana Xu, 56, retired last year, but that hasn\u2019t turned her into a homebody with knitting needles. She loves to travel and even arranges trips for a group of retired friends.\nUsing just her smartphone, Xu booked five rooms at a hot springs hotel in Fujian Province and purchased 10 tickets on high-speed rail. She sent the ticket information to her friends through WeChat, along with tips about weather, nearby tourist sites and local specialty food.\n\u201cI have always loved traveling,\u201d she says. \u201cI dreamed about traveling all over the world. Unfortunately, I never had the time until now. I am ready to go!\u201d\nXu is the face of a new generation of retirees in China, who are happy to explore new possibilities and have digital savvy.\nIt\u2019s a stark contrast to the stereotyped image of older Chinese people who sit at home with grandchildren playing at their knees, who play mahjong the whole day, or who have no idea how to navigate the Internet. For many of these new age retirees, the world is suddenly their oyster, with endless possibilities to explore.\nMany are avid online users.\nAccording to the China Internet Network Information Center, the number of netizens 50 years and older has expanded rapidly in the last 17 years. Last year alone, senior netizens comprised about 10 percent of Chinese online users.\nA survey of more than 800 WeChat users 50 years and older by the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences and Tencent Social Research Center found that more than half can make payments via their smartphones, about a third can shop online and about a quarter call taxi through apps.\nDiana Xu shares a casual moment with local children during a trip to Bali, Indonesia.\nDiana Xu enjoy her time in Bali.\nXu is just one of the trendy retirees who can use a smartphone to organize her daily life. She is adept at taking advantage of time-limited, low-cost travel products that come available when people cancel bookings at the last minute. It is not difficult to grab such bargains if one has the time and persistence. Xu says she once snagged a five-day cruise at half price just two weeks before departure.\n\u201cAll you need is a free schedule and a ready-to-go heart,\u201d says Xu.\nTravel isn\u2019t the only siren call for seniors.\nIt had never occurred to 61-year-old former accountant Qian Suqin that she would become a qipao model in her late 50s.\nA slump in the stock market four years ago triggered Qian\u2019s first foray beyond the world of numbers. At the recommendation of friends, she took a modeling course at the University for the Elderly and fell in love with modeling.\n\u201cI was astonished when I first saw the seniors at the school modeling in qipao,\u201d she says, referring to the traditional, body-hugging Chinese dress. \u201cEveryone was so beautiful and confident, like elegant swans on a lake. And I wished I could be like that one day.\u201d\nWith a gifted slim figure and plenty of practice, Qian quickly had the chance to perform at the annual school show, and she was later recruited by a community-based qipao team of models 50 years and older.\nQian\u2019s life has been so busy with modeling and the new friends she has made that she\u2019s hardly given any thought to the locked-up shares she still holds.\nShe was doing modeling every two or three months until the birth of a grandson last year. His arrival caused her to give up some shows that required days in other cities.\nHowever, she\u2019s not giving modeling up altogether.\n\u201cIt is always appropriate for a lady to pursue beauty and elegance, regardless of age,\u201d she says. \u201cWhat I have learned from modeling has transformed my life, and I will never give it up.\u201d\nQian takes time from babysitting duties every Monday morning to attend the modeling course.\n\u201cIt is tiring to look after a baby, even though I love my grandson very much,\u201d she says. \u201cBut a half day with qipao and friends injects me with happiness and positive energy that sustain me through the rest of the week.\u201d\nQian keeps more than a dozen qipao, which she also wears for gatherings with friends and family. She has promised herself to keep up personal elegance to her dying day.\nSlender and elegant, Qian Suqin (third from right) and her friends stage a qipao show.\nQian Suqin (left) with one of her qipao team members\nOther retirees are finding no end of undeveloped talent that they now have the time to refine.\nRetired office worker Jiang Yong, 63, always liked to cook but he never really developed advanced kitchen skills. So when he received a brochure about a community-based school early this year, he jumped at the chance to take a cooking course that covers dishes he has never tried before.\n\u201cI have always believed that it is better to eat homemade meals,\u201d he says. \u201cBut my repertoire was mostly standard home dishes. The course has allowed me to explore further.\u201d\nRather than following exactly what the teacher says, Jiang likes to experiment a bit.

(Erik Aavatsmark/Netflix via AP)\nThe frustratingly long wait for Tamara Jenkins' follow-up to her 2007 Oscar-nominated film, \"The Savages,\" seemed to finally be coming to end. She had spent two years on the script to \"Private Life,\" and secured Katheryn Hahn and Paul Giamatti to star as a middle-aged New York couple navigating the medical and emotional gauntlet of assisted reproduction. But just when the production was ready to go, the company that had developed it, Amazon Studios, stepped back, leaving Jenkins in the lurch.\nEnter Netflix.\n\"I think 'swooped' would be the perfect word. They saved it,\" says Jenkins, the 56-year-old filmmaker of \"The Slums of Beverly Hills.\" ''I was scared. I thought we're going to blow it. We were going to miss the window. And then Netflix said, 'We'll do it' and they said it incredibly fast.\"\nJenkins' \"Private Life\" (Oct. 5) is part of what may be the most extensive fall movie slate any studio has ever put together. Between September and Christmas, Netflix will release at least 25 films. There will be one or two new movies released almost every week, many of them by the most sought-after filmmakers in Hollywood.\nAmong them: Nicole Holofcener's midlife crisis drama \"The Land of Steady Habits\" (Sept. 14), Jeremy Saulnier's northern Alaska thriller \"Hold the Dark\" (Sept. 28), Paul Greengrass' docudrama on the 2011 Norway terrorist attack \"22 July\" (Oct. 10), David Mackenzie's Robert the Bruce epic \"Outlaw King\" (Nov. 9), Joel and Ethan Coen's Western anthology film \"The Ballad of Buster Scruggs\" (Nov. 16) and Alfonso Cuaron's \"Gravity\" follow-up \"Roma.\" And that's not even mentioning a new work, the posthumously completed \"The Other Side of the Wind,\" from a long-unheard-from filmmaker: Orson Welles.\nA year after \"Mudbound\" became Netflix's biggest Oscar contender yet, the streaming giant's programming push (it's spending some $8 billion in 2018) is heading into this year's awards season with a wave of prestige and genre-movie reinforcements. Whether the Netflix tide will roll all the way into the Academy Awards remains to be seen. (Some, like Steven Spielberg, have suggested Netflix films, with their small, token theatrical releases, are more like TV movies and should qualify for the Emmys, not the Oscars.)\nBut regardless, the Netflix powerhouse fall lineup would be the envy of most any studio. It's a significant surge for a company with an up-and-down record in terms of the quality of its original films. (See: \"Bright,\" ''War Machine\" or any of the Adam Sandler movies.) And though critics have claimed Netflix releases can get lost in its sea of programming options, it will be hard to miss the Netflix movies this fall. There will be six Netflix films at the Venice Film Festival and eight at the Toronto International Film Festival.\n\"I usually turn it on its head and say: Look, movies are found on Netflix,\" says Ian Bricke, co-head of Netflix's indie film division. \"And it's certainly important for us, too, that these movies are in the culture. 'Private Life' was at Sundance, will be at the New York Film Festival, will be in theaters. It will be written about and experienced and talked about in a way that any other film would be, and can reach potentially, over a very short period of time, a really meaningful audience all over the world. To me, that's the best of both worlds.\"\nCuaron's much anticipated \"Roma\" had been headed for Cannes. But after Netflix pulled its films from the French festival after Cannes ruled them out from the main competition, \"Roma\" will instead hit the Venice, Toronto and the New York festivals before arriving on Netflix in December. For the Mexican filmmaker of \"Gravity\" and \"Children of Men,\" the '70s-set, black-and-white, Spanish-language \"Roma\" is a bold departure that forced Cuaron to remake himself as a filmmaker.\nBut like Jenkins' \"Private Life,\" Cuaron's deeply personal film, about the Mexico City neighborhood of his youth, was never going to be an easy sell to distributors. Netflix, where original films are typically watched by millions, meant a global release far beyond the art house. Cuaron calls Neflix's support of \"Roma\" ''unprecedented.\"\n\"The specialized film, the so-called foreign film market nowadays is very challenging and sometimes their resources are limited,\" says Cuaron \"Netflix fully believe in the film and they understand these kinds of films can have a huge audience. So now they are in a creative and aggressive way supporting the film. What they offered was absolutely compelling. I'm really, really grateful for them.\"\nFor Cuaron, making \"Roma,\" about a domestic worker for a middle-class family, was part of connecting again with the \"personal journey\" of cinema. He estimates 90 percent of it is based on his memories. He went to great lengths to recreate his childhood home. None of the crew or cast had a script.\n\"It's something that's been brewing for a long, long, long time,\" he says of the film.\nJenkins, too, was pulling from her own experience for \"Private Life.\" The film is partly based on the pregnancy trials of her own with her husband, the screenwriter Jim Taylor. Even though it wasn't Jenkins' initial instinct to dramatize that chapter of her life.\n\"When I was kind of downloading my woes or whatever, a girlfriend of mine who's a filmmaker said, 'Oh my god, you should really write about that.' And I was like, 'No way! I'll never do that! Gross!'\" says Jenkins. But as she witnessed more friends going through similar fertility challenges, she reconsidered. \"There was something so existential about that problem. It's so primal. I just thought it was a great lens to examine this couple.\"\nBoth \"Private Life\" and Holofcener's \"The Land of Steady Habits\" were abandoned in development elsewhere when they were picked up by Bricke and his fellow indie co-head Matt Levin. Without consulting content chief Ted Sarandos, they can greenlight anything with a budget under $10 million.\n\"We have a business model and an appetite for creative risk that's not unique but is relatively scarce,\" says Bricke. \"When a Charlie Kauffman or a Tamara Jenkins or a Nicole Holofcener comes around, it's pretty easy for us to jump in with them.\"\nHolofcener's film stars Ben Mendelsohn as Anders Hill, a Connecticut man who has left his wife (Edie Falco), quit his job in finance and begun acting recklessly. Based on Ted Thompson's novel, it's the first adaptation for Holofcener, the writer-director of \"Enough Said\" and \"Friends With Money,\" and the first centered on a man.\n\"I absolutely identify with him, as a parent, as a divorced parent, who inevitably is going to make mistakes,\" says Holofcener.\" I like to think I don't make such serious mistakes or catastrophic mistakes as Anders makes. But we're all so flawed and stumbling along on our own and trying to be role models for our kids. They go whatever way they want and we can't control them. It's scary. I relate to that in him. I'm nicer than he is, I like to think, and not as screwed up. But that's what makes a good movie, right?\"\nStraight, \"no chaser\" is how NBA agent Ray Burke (Andre Holland) likes his news in \"High Flying Bird,\" and the same could be said for the cinematic preferences of director Steven Soderbergh, whose...\nReview: Director Dan Gilroy's \"Velvet Buzzsaw\"\nThe art installation, so often a playground in the contemporary art museum, is in Dan Gilroy's gloriously gory satire \"Velvet Buzzsaw\" a terror chamber.

        "raw_content": "Conference on Women and Gender Features Historian Danielle McGuire, Call for Submissions Opens\nThe annual Seton Hall University Conference on Women and Gender will be held on Friday, March 29, 8 a.m. through 4 p.m., featuring keynote speaker, author and award-winning historian Danielle McGuire. The Women and Gender Studies Program is requesting presenter submissions through January 31.\nMcGuire is the author of At the Dark End of the Street: Black Women, Rape and Resistance\u2013a New History of the Civil Rights Movement from Rosa Parks to the Rise of Black Power. The book has been widely recognized for its groundbreaking discovery of Rosa Parks' work for justice in the case of Recy Taylor, a 24-year-old mother and sharecropper, who was raped by a group of white men. McGuire reframes the Civil Rights Movement, including the Montgomery Bus Boycott and the Black Power movement, in terms of black women's protests against sexual violence and harassment. The book has won multiple awards, including the Frederick Jackson Turner Award and the Lillian Smith Award and has been reviewed in a variety of national publications. Her research has also lent itself to a documentary on the Recy Taylor case.\n\"Organizers are looking to offer a collection of exciting sessions that reflects the dynamic, productive diversity of perspectives and approaches characterizing the current discussions about women and about gender. We warmly invite presenters exploring any aspect of women and gender from all fields\u2014including the humanities, diplomacy, social sciences, mathematics, and experimental sciences\u2014and all professions, including but not limited to business, law, health care, education and non-profit administration,\" said Conference co-chairs Karen Gevirtz and Vanessa May.\nConsistent with the principles and methodology of Women's Studies, Gender Studies, and related fields, papers should be academic in nature, based on foundational concepts including the constructedness of gender, and joining critically in conversation with reliable, scholarly or edited sources. Papers should also be accessible to a general audience of undergraduates, graduate students, faculty, staff and members of the community. The conference committee strongly welcomes the participation of students, faculty, and staff, with the proviso that graduate and undergraduate panels must have a faculty discussant. Organizers will accept both panels and individual papers.\nThe URL for abstract submissions, due by January 31, is here. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact Professors Vanessa May at vanessa.may@shu.edu and Karen Gevirtz at karen.gevirtz@shu.edu.",

        "raw_content": "Chelsea Legend John Terry Names Best Ever Centre-Back Partner & Reveals Favourite Club Moment\nChelsea legend John Terry has claimed that his favourite moment at the club was the 2012 Champions League final win over Bayern Munich, and that his best centre-back partner was Marcel Desailly.\nThe 38-year-old, who is now the assistant manager at Aston Villa, spent almost two decades at Stamford Bridge, rising through the youth academy and going on to captain his boyhood club. During a sensational career in west London, Terry won five Premier League titles, five FA Cups, and the Champions League, alongside other club and personal honours.\nTaking part in a Q&A session with fans on his Instagram account, via Chelea's official website, Terry answered a host of questions regarding his former playing career. Naming his favourite moment with the Blues, the ex-England captain kept it short and sweet, answering: \"Munich\", alongside an emoji of a trophy - even though he famously didn't play in the game itself due to suspension.\nThe Premier League icon went on to name Didier Drogba as the best striker he'd ever played alongside, Jos\u00e9 Mourinho as his favourite manager, and former France international Desailly as his best centre-back partner. Terry said: \"He was so good to me as a 17-year-old coming through at Chelsea.\"\nJohn Terry just owned a Tottenham fan! pic.twitter.com/jYg58qAJin\n\u2014 Jim (@Sarfraz1000) February 7, 2019\nEver the joker, Terry couldn't resist a dig at Chelsea's arch rivals Spurs either, and replied with a trophy emoji next to an eyes emoji to the 'question' \"Tottenham Hotspur forever\", insinuating that the north Londoners' 11 year run without winning a single piece of silverware would continue for the foreseeable future.\nMeanwhile, Chelsea are believed to be in the race to sign Brescia wonderkid Sandro Tonali this summer, but may have to pay around \u20ac50m to secure his services. Liverpool are also believed to be keen on the Italian starlet, but his club are set to drive up their asking price if they achieve promotion to Serie A this season.",

I was always afraid of having a daughter and situations like this are only one of the reasons why. I know she will be stronger because of it, I however, may need some medication. \ud83d\ude42\nUgh. Been there and not looking forward to going through it again in 6 years. Sorry this is going on but she is lucky to have a strong mom.\nThanks Tara. I\u2019m pretty lucky she\u2019s so strong, too. She has amazed me with her spirit and joy facing going to school everyday this week.\nIt is hard to believe that she is 12! And I am just starting over, not looking forward to that. Tell Ella that people she doesn\u2019t even remember care a lot about her and she is very special!!!!\nOh Flavia, luckily for you you\u2019ve got some time before even having to consider any of this! I will give Ella the message and thank you for saying that about her! I miss you!\nLike others commented, I was definitely there as a young teen myself with something similar and totally worry about my girls growing up and stuff like this with girls they may think of as friends as the teen years approach. I wish I had words of wisdom here and all I can say is I am really so sorry that your daughter has been going through this and am with Tara she is so lucky to have you as her mom and in her corner.\nThank you Janine. I appreciate that and I hope you have many years without any of this nonsense. I went through it, too, but it is so much worse when your children go through it. I\u2019ve been a nervous wreck all week.\nOh that breaks my heart. Ella who is full of laughter and love, kindness and personality should not have to be going through this. unfortunately it seems to be a right of passage for girls but with FB , Instagram and technology today it is much more prevelant. Tell her she can come over and cuddle with ROry any time she wants!\nYou made her laugh Mikki. She will be taking you up on that offer, don\u2019t doubt it.\nLove that girl\u2019s ability to handle adversity! She\u2019ll come out of this stronger,yet the process is pure parental torture! Hang in there.\nThank you! And thanks for listening as I act like a 12yo behind closed doors.\nthis is the second story I have heard this weekend about girls being mean to a friend and talking behind her back. It has always happened I guess but somehow social media makes it so much worse. The words are there to be reread and it hurts again ever time. We want so bad to protect our children from these situations but our job is often to guide them through them.\nBut I don\u2019t want to be a guide!! lol. I know Ella isn\u2019t alone, I knew it in my heart but based on the messages I\u2019ve received here and privately, this is a huge problem and I was fairly unaware. Now, what to do about it?\nEverything about this breaks my heart! Stephanie she will come out of this stronger and better. I was blown away when I heard of this situation. I know those girls are regretting what they did because they are missing out on being friends with one awesome girl. Similar situation happened to Sheah in 6th grade and she has never been the same with friendships. It is sad and breaks my heart daily but she prefers not to have close friendships. Hugs to you both!!\nWhen I see Sheah or talk to you I think what a great girl. So strong, so talented. I would never have thought this would happen to her. Unfortunately, things like this do change you. They leave a mark that really doesn\u2019t ever go away. I\u2019m sorry you\u2019ve gone through this with her, thank you for reaching out.\nElla is one of the happiest people that I know. She is sweet and kind and thoughtful and easy going. She\u2019s good at just about everything she does, but you\u2019d have to watch her to know it because she doesn\u2019t brag about it. She\u2019s grown up with two brothers who share similar qualities, so for her, it\u2019s just the way life is. Unfortunately, that can make you a target for people who aren\u2019t as happy with themselves. It\u2019s a sad lesson to learn at her age. It\u2019s sad at any age,but it does make you stronger and the next time it happens she\u2019ll handle it a little bit differently, and a little better and know that you are defined by who you are and what you do. Not by what others try to convince people of, because all of that goes away eventually. Even the people who get caught up in it will begin to question why they did. Let your light shine Ella! Miserable people will continue to be that way long after you\u2019ve moved on to bigger and better things. Love ya girl! (And I mean it;)\nThanks Tisha, you made us both laugh. We love you, too, girl!\nLori Capriglione\nHappened to my girls so much that they don\u2019t really trust girls in their school. One even had her cell phone stolen by a \u201cfriend\u201d who then pretended to be her. They are seniors now and cannot wait to get out and go to college.\nYou are not the first person who has mentioned not trusting the other girls, and it speaks volumes. It\u2019s sad that the little time we have with our kids (through middle and high school) that we have to spend one second on any of this nonsense and assuring them that it\u2019s a big world out there and it gets better. It\u2019s a lesson, sure, but wouldn\u2019t it be great if no one ever had to go through it?\nOh man!!! Hate this for both of you. Let me start by saying \u2013 isn\u2019t she 2? Has it really been that long??? OK I digress, like the others, I was \u2018that\u2019 girl. I was betrayed but in the end became friends with most of the kids (both girls & boys) in the grade above me and remain good friends with all of them to this day. If she is ANYTHING like her mother, she too will prevail and be awesome. How can she be anything other than that with such a great role model. Continue the open conversation and lots of hugs!\nYou are funny, it doesn\u2019t feel like it could be 14 years since we moved from Charlotte thats for sure. I have to say that I am amazed at the number of my friends and people I absolutely love (you are included in that) who have been through this either themselves or with their daughter. It\u2019s heartbreaking. As an adult I can see (and I know) she will get past this. As a former 12yo girl, my heart hurts. Thanks for the kind words Amy!\nLorrie (Hooper) Hatley\nBrings back horrible memories for me. I was the girl who held the sleepover. Out of 4 girls invited only 2 stayed. One because she was truly my friend \u2013 The other? Because her mother made her stay! When you are 6-10 everyone is your friend. But from 11 on up, when you show friendship and concern for those girls who were never \u201ca part\u201d of your group, that\u2019s when the cold shouldering begins. I\u2019m glad I was true to myself. I have nothing to look back on and feel ashamed of. And I\u2019m sure those \u201cother\u201d girls (that I wanted to continue to be a part of their group) don\u2019t even realize how much they hurt my feelings. Oh well. I\u2019m glad I grew up and got over it. I wouldn\u2019t go back to that age for a million dollars!! I\u2019m sure you\u2019re a great Mom and she\u2019s lucky to have you to love her care enough to be involved with her day to day trials (And joys)!!\nThis story made me so sad, Lorrie. I\u2019ve heard from so many people about their own experiences and each and every one ends with I was stronger and I\u2019m better for it but that certainly doesn\u2019t erase the heartache that all of us have felt. I love your statement \u201cI have nothing\u2026to feel ashamed of.\u201d That\u2019s perfect.\nHearing this breaks my heart. These days with technology you can\u2019t get a break from the bad and the ugly. Fortunately you and your daughter have people who love you and are there for you through it all. I hope writing about it helped you work through this tough time.\nCheryl Xxxooo\nThanks Cheryl. I know you\u2019ve dealt with enough of this as well. I learned a lot from you and your perspective (which is much less angry and revenge-driven than mine! lol)\nThis makes me sick to my stomach, too, and there is only so much protecting we can do of our children. You keep doing the loving job you\u2019re doing with Ella; she will grow up strong and secure. The other girls, well, I believe when there is a meanness in a child, it comes from somewhere, and it\u2019s usually traceable to the parents\u2013whether it\u2019s because they tolerate poor behavior, cause their children to feel entitled, or simply because they, too, make bad choices first and set the example. Just keep doing what you\u2019re doing, Stephanie; you\u2019re one of the good ones. And so is Ella.\nThanks Denise. I\u2019ve been sick to my stomach since this all started. Thank you for your kind words and for your support!\nSteph, I can\u2019t tell you enough how bad this made me feel when I read it. You know, that kind of sick to your stomach, hurt feeling nevers goes away for your children no matter how big or old they get. My heart breaks for you and how you must be feeling now for your love for Ella and what she is experiencing. I\u2019ve watched her grow up and she is such a beautiful, amazing, gifted, and compassionate little girl. God has blessed her with so many different qualities that will make her an amazing adult who will succeed in life. And this experience will also help to make her a better person.\nElla has always watched out for the little ones and the animals and they have always loved her. She has a good heart and you can\u2019t teach that to anyone, it comes from within. You know that you go thru your life and make many acquaintances but have very few friends. I watched both you and Tisha experience that as you grew up and it was so painful to watch. Tisha has gone thru some hurts of her own in the past couple of years and she and her children are becoming stronger because of it and they are making it. Ella will too. She is special and it is their loss for not seeing it.\nIt is very few children who are watching out for someone who is left out and tries to include them. Ella has that in her character. She is a lovely young girl who can mix with the young and who can carry on conversations with adults. This bad experience she is going thru will only make her a stronger, better and more compassionate person.\nI love you both and hope that Ella will find a true friend who will accept her for her and not play these mean spirited social games with her. You seem to have found some real friends Steph in your life now and that is my hope for Ella.\nI remember you going through this with me. It was awful then and even worse now. We didn\u2019t have a very good connection the other night when we talked because I was going to tell you about it then. This, I\u2019m sure, was an awful surprise to read about. She\u2019s upbeat though and managing pretty well. It\u2019s me who is going a bit crazy \ud83d\ude42\nI\u2019m so sorry to hear of this Stephanie. Unfortunately, she is not alone. We too have experienced the turmoil that can arise from would be friends. It is so devastating when you try and instill and inspire all the right tools for your children to grow up and be happy, strong young girls. There have been many text photos and school/parent calls to rectify situations. I always love hearing \u2018not my child\u2019 and then providing the photo of the text. Really puts things in perspective. In then end, our girls will be stronger, and know how to deal with adversity. A life lesson taught MUCH too early. Again, I am so sorry to hear. Keep smiling, supporting, loving. She WILL come out on top!\nYep, I\u2019m building up quite a little store of screen shots for when the school does end up being more involved. I\u2019m sorry you\u2019ve gone through this too and I appreciate your messages.\nThis is AWFUL! I mean, why are girls so mean? I\u2019m surprised the parents don\u2019t believe you if you have proof in texts. At any rate, she will get through this and tomorrow is a new day. I just am terrified of this happening to one of our girls. I\u2019m so sorry!\nKristen, I have to think they haven\u2019t checked their own kids phones and I haven\u2019t shown them what I\u2019ve seen on my daughters (I stalk my kids phones like it\u2019s my job, because it is.) It was a phone and email conversation between me and one of the moms, which both went well but ended with \u201cmy daughter has a different story and she apologized.\u201d Which is when I wanted to take screenshots and send them to her showing exactly what her daughter said (which wasn\u2019t an apology) but I didn\u2019t. The dad I spoke with was, weirdly, calm, understanding and knew all about it. He apologized and said he knew his daughter was being a bully and also that he would talk with her again. It is awful and I hope you don\u2019t have to go through it, the anger, frustration and sadness take a lot out of you.\nUgh\u2026 I hated all of this. I have two girls, one a young adult and the other a senior in HS. The funny thing is, sometimes THEY move on and I\u2019m still stuck with the bad feelings. It\u2019s been a lesson to me.\nOh I could see that happening with me. I\u2019d still be angry and she\u2019d be over it and moving on. It\u2019s hard to let go.\nMakes me sick. My sister had her so-called friends turn against her, one by one, when she was about 11 or 12. It made my mom sick then. There\u2019s only so much she could do, although she wanted to do so much. What\u2019s funny is that all of these girls were at my sister\u2019s wedding in October. Bygones were bygones. I wonder if I could be that forgiving, but it is legit. I mean, they all made up in middle school and have been friends since.\nI know it\u2019s not always so cut and dry.\nI see this one little girl in KINDERGARTEN behaving like this already. How bad will it be? Will my daughter be caught in the crossfire one day?\nI get so scared.\nI don\u2019t know if I have the forgiveness in me. I really don\u2019t. I will have a very hard time when she comes home and talks about one of them in a friendly way. My mom still struggles a bit with some of the people I\u2019ve become friends with after the fact, now I get where she\u2019s coming from.\nstephanie-I\u2019m brought back to many moments of my girls lives\u2026 Girls are mean-I agree! My best advice is to empower your daughter\u2026 The day will come when she is going to want to be friends again and has been said before -you will be horrified\u2026 I know this isn\u2019t the make a difference answer but I\u2019ve done both and getting involved causes more heartache to your child in the long run \u2013 hug her, talk with her but teach her to stand tall\nThanks Melissa, we are doing lots of talking and I\u2019m letting her read the comments. We both have been amazed at the people who have been in similar situations. Girls we\u2019ve known for years, athletes, dancers, smart, fun and beautiful girls \u2013 who have all come through it and are thriving. I think that has been a great source of comfort for her. You are right. I will be horrified so I\u2019m trying to temper my negative with humor and understanding so she feels better about making her own choices and knows I will support her no matter what.\nsandy beebe\nMy heart is broken!!Ella is a beautiful, fun loving, caring girl. She has GREAT parents and family. She will rise above this ugliness!! Tell her Mrs. Beebe will take care of them!!\nThanks Sandy. She laughed when I read her this, she loved it.\nSorry to hear your daughter went through such a hard time. We have been there and it just plain sucks. I have no doubt with your love and support, she will be just fine. It sounds like she is already dealing with it well. Although I am NOT a fan of Dr. Phil, I do love a saying of his: \u201cwe teach people how to treat us.\u201d She won\u2019t put up with this crap and neither will mama!! Xoxo\nThat\u2019s a good quote. Every day I see her being a little stronger, a little more okay without those girls in her life. She\u2019s holding her own.\nSuch a hard thing to go through. And even harder to watch your own daughter go through it. It breaks my heart to see girls fight like this. We should build each other up. I have no doubt she will be stronger for it, but it is still hard to endure.\nIt breaks my heart too. Thanks Jennifer.\nUgh \u2013 this sucks. I\u2019m so sorry, Steph \u2013 for you and your daughter. Sometimes it\u2019s harder to get over when it\u2019s not you, but someone you love. My sister has a friend who she reconciled with, but I still hate to be around her. I\u2019m adult about it, but inside I\u2019m holding a grudge.\nThat made me laugh. My mom still holds grudges against a couple of my \u201cfriends\u201d and I don\u2019t see me getting over this any time soon. I realize at some point she may be friendly with all or some of them again but I doubt I\u2019ll be able to let go or trust any of them.\nUgh! That poor sweet kid. I am sorry. I am guessing these are your friends too, because so much of the time, we\u2019re all so entwined. It must be so frustrating for you to watch her have to go through this. Just keep telling her it doesn\u2019t last forever, and those kind of \u201cfriends\u201d aren\u2019t worth it. Not that that is easy for a 12 year old to understand\u2026but she will someday. \ud83d\ude41\nI\u2019m friends with one of the moms, that\u2019s it, thankfully. It is hard to straighten it all out. Ella\u2019s handling herself well though and we are talking a lot!\nThis is why I always trusted my guy friends more than the girls. (In fact, to a certain extent, that\u2019s still the case.)\nSomething so similar happened to my daughter, who is now 20. I\u2019d like to say that she emerged \u201cstronger and better for it.\u201d But she went from being incredibly gregarious as a child, to a very cautious young adult. It takes a long time for her to get close to someone new. That has its advantages, but also its lonely times. As mom, it still hurts a little.\nWishing you and your daughter joy!\nI hate to hear that your daughter went through this and I\u2019m sorry she did. Interestingly enough, I\u2019m in the process of sharing/writing my story, how it changed me and how I approach friendships since. I don\u2019t think it can\u2019t change you. Thank you for your kind words, I\u2019m sure I\u2019m always going to feel a little hurt as well.\nOh Stephanie!! What a CRUSHING experience for your daughter to go through, and YOU. I absolutely loathe those years, of such twisted social circles and lies and horrible injustice. I\u2019m SO sorry your girl has to be one of the victims\u2026\nI\u2019m so proud of how she is handling it all. And I\u2019m so proud of you for loving her through it. Oh, how painful it must be.\nThank you Chris! It\u2019s now been almost 2 months of this nonsense, I think it\u2019s finally starting to die down a little but it took talking to an attorney and the principal to do so. Very sad.\nStephanie!!! We are going through the exact same thing only this is the second round at 13. Last year, she lost all of her best friends. We made it through and she made new friends. I thought good friends but it never ends. It\u2019s happening again. So many tears. (P.S. I was just going to write a post about this same subject)",

Student art work from grades K-6 also lined the halls along with professional art pieces from Gregory Arth, Trish Biddle, Lance Cross, Jane Metz, Linda Bein, Gail James, Roy Odom and Janie Cavender.\nIn collaboration with Westlake Public Art Society, professional artists Trish Biddle, Richard Nunez, Nell Potasnik-Langford, Gregory Arth, Holly Paulson, Nancy Herkert, Linda Bein, Roy Odom and Janie Cavender worked with Westlake Academy students to create international-themed art pieces. The student art reflected France, Argentina, Kazakhstan, Saudi Arabia, French Guiana, Korea, Canada, United States, Australia and the Netherlands.\n\u201cLast year the event raised over $200,000 and preliminary numbers show we topped that this year with over $230,000 raised,\u201d says Westlake Academy Executive Director Dr. Shelly Myers. Included in this amount is $65,000 that was raised in a special \u201cFund-an-Item\u201d auction for a Library Media Resource Center. Gallery Night proceeds enable the Foundation to fund grant requests from Westlake Academy for classroom equipment, campus and gym needs, specialized curriculum, technology upgrades and more.\nThis year the Westlake Public Art Society partnered with the school to provide art materials and artists who volunteered to work with students at the school to produce art pieces for the auction. \u201cThe response to this collaboration was overwhelmingly positive. Not only were the student art creations sought-after auction items, but the students benefited from the experience of working with professional artists,\u201d says Kelly Cox, Westlake Academy Foundation President. \u201cWe hope to continue and expand this collaboration next year,\u201d says Cox.\nWestlake Academy is a public charter school offering the rigorous International Baccalaureate (IB) curriculum. Founded in 2003, with a mission to achieve academic excellence and to develop life-long learners who become well-balanced, responsible global citizens, Westlake is the first and only municipality in the state to receive a charter designation.

Watch Rocket Lab's 1st Commercial Electron Launch Tonight\nRocket Lab launch team member Kieran Fanning took this photo of the company's Electron rocket at night ahead of its planned \"It's Business Time\" launch from M\u0101hia Peninsula, New Zealand on June 23, 2018.\n(Image: \u00a9 Kieran Fanning/Rocket Lab)\nUpdate for June 28: Rocket Lab announced today that \"It's Business Time\" will not launch during the planned 14-day launch window (June 22\u2013July 6) due to an issue with the Electron rocket's motor controller. The company has not yet announced a new launch window at this time. An earlier launch attempt on June 26 was scrubbed when Rocket Lab discovered the the motor controller issue. The first launch attempt on June 22 was also called off due to a technical glitch with a tracking dish needed to monitor the launch.\nThe U.S. spaceflight startup Rocket Lab will attempt the first commercial launch of its new Electron rocket today (June 22), and you can watch the liftoff live online.\nTopped with four commercial satellites and one technology demonstration \u2014 a drag sail designed to deorbit small satellites and reduce space junk \u2014 the Electron rocket will lift off from the company's private launch site on M\u0101hia Peninsula in New Zealand. The 4-hour launch window opens at 8:30 p.m. EDT (12:30 p.m. local time or 0030 GMT on June 23).\nYou can watch a live webcast of the launch here on Space.com, courtesy of Rocket Lab, or directly via the company's website. Rocket Lab will begin its live coverage 20 minutes before liftoff, or 8:10 p.m. EDT (12:10 p.m. local time or 0010 GMT on June 23).\nThis mission, which the company has named \"It's Business Time,\" follows two test flights of the Electron rocket. The craft's debut flight, \"It's a Test,\" launched on May 25, 2017, and made it to space, but the rocket didn't reach the desired altitude. A follow-up flight on Jan. 21, dubbed \"Still Testing,\" was considered successful, despite a series of launch aborts and delays caused by weather and wayward boats, among other things.\nRocket Lab initially aimed to launch the \"It's Business Time\" mission April 19, but postponed it after spotting \"unusual motor controller behaviour\" during a launch dress rehearsal. The company spent the following weeks confirming the Electron was ready to fly for its customers.\nTo mark \"It's Business Time,\" Rocket Lab launch team member Kieran Fanning snapped a spectacular photo of the Electron booster on its seaside launchpad in New Zealand.\n\"Given the weather had been mostly cloudy earlier on in the day, I wasn't really anticipating the chance to get a shot like this,\" Fanning told Space.com via email. \"As we neared the end of operations for the wet dress rehearsal, the clouds opened up to reveal the skies above and I knew this was probably my best ever opportunity. I quickly ran to get my gear and used a concrete block to prop the camera up and started snapping before the clouds rolled in about ten minutes later. Absolutely a case of right time, right place, and right-ish gear!\"\nThe payloads for \"It's Business Time\" are:\nLemur-2-Zupanski and Lemur-2 Chanusiak: Two nanosatellites for the data analytics company Spire that join a constellation in orbit for ocean vessel tracking.\nGeoOptics nanosatellite: Built by Tvak Nanosatellite Systems, this small satellite will be used for weather monitoring by GeoOptics Inc.\nNABEO: A drag-sail technology demonstration satellite to test a space debris removal method. It was built by High Performance Space Structure Systems.\nIf Rocket Lab scrubs or delays today's liftoff, the company still has a 14-day launch window for this mission. That means it could launch any day between now and July 6.",

Sean Glenn\nFeast of Saint Luke the Evangelist\nToday the Church remembers Saint Luke the Evangelist\u2014the author of the collection of writings we have come to know as The Gospel According to Lukeand The Acts of the Apostles. It is difficult for us to say who exactly Luke may have been; the author is not identified at any point within the text. One prominent tradition identifies him as Luke the physician, an educated gentile or Hellenistic Jewish convert and follower of Saint Paul. Given the proliferation of healing and medicinal imagery within Luke\u2019s gospel, this identification has resonated for many readers. We find it present even here, in this chapel, in the \u201cWorkmen\u2019s Windows\u201d at the eastern end of the north ambulatory. We see Luke represented here holding a caduceus, a resonant and ancient symbol of the medicinal arts.\nAnother early, pious tradition holds that Luke was what we might call the first iconographer\u2014a figure who strove through narrative and representation to convey the Good News in Jesus Christ. We encounter this tradition in the \u201cWorkmen\u2019s Windows\u201d here as well. The medallion in the lower third of St. Luke\u2019s window depicts the author at work writing an icon of the Blessed Virgin and the Infant Christ (a narrative window we are only given in Luke\u2019s gospel).

In their own persons, the twelve are to do as Jesus has already done: \u201cCure the sick, raise the dead, cleanse the lepers, cast out demons.\u201d\nIn taking up this mission with Jesus, the twelve are called to radical dependence on the provision of God.\nAnd so are you and I.

James Koester\nBy admin | November 26, 2017 | 0\nFeast of Christ the King: Proper 29A\nEzekiel 34: 11 \u2013 16, 20 \u2013 24\nWe all know that a shift has taken place in the world, and we see it most clearly in last year\u2019s election in this country and the BREXIT referendum in the UK. The shift appears to be away from a global, universal outlook to a more individual, nationalist one. Me First appears to be the watchword, and that has become true about nations as well as individuals. We see this in foreign as well as domestic policy, ranging from trade, to immigration, to security, to health, to education, to gun laws, to the environment, to civil and human rights. We see this as society becomes more stratified and neighbourhoods and communities more uniform. We are losing, or perhaps have lost, our concern for the other and appear to live in a culture that says that I can do whatever I want, and the other person, or neighbourhood, or nation, simply doesn\u2019t matter. Some political commentators see evidence of this, not just at one end of the political spectrum, but at both ends. And some argue that this isn\u2019t a recent phenomenon, but has its roots back several decades.\nBut this Me First attitude is in stark contrast to the kind of life we are trying to live as Christians, and as a Christian community. It is such a stark contrast, that I have spent some time pondering what it is that sets us apart from the world, and shapes our life as Christians in a fundamentally different way, so much so, that not only are we set apart from the world, sooner or later our values as Christians will set us in conflict with a world where a Me First attitude is king. And that, I think, is the key for us, at least for today: who or what is king over our lives? Who or what rules supreme in our lives? To whom or to what do we owe our ultimate allegiance?

James Koester | October 15, 2017 | 0\nSermon preached at St. Andrew\u2019s Cathedral, Jackson MS\nBefore I joined the monastic community where I now live, I was a parish priest for a number of years in a small parish, on a little island, off the west coast of British Columbia. It was a wonderful place to live, right on the ocean, with snow-capped mountains in the distance. In many ways it was idyllic, and one of the churches in the parish was a picture perfect gem, and for the standards of that part of the world, being 100 years old, it was considered ancient and quaint. Indeed, for that part of British Columbia, there probably were not too many building that were older than St. Mark\u2019s.\nBecause of where it was, and because of its age, people loved to be married at St. Mark\u2019s. It was one of those places, no matter the day, no matter the season, no matter if you were inside or outside, you couldn\u2019t take a bad photograph, so bridal couples, wedding photographers and family and friends loved to come to St. Mark\u2019s for their wedding, and for photographs.

David Vryhof\nSome years ago I had the privilege of taking a course with Dr. Stanley Hauerwas, a theologian who was then on the faculty of the Divinity School at Duke University. Dr. Hauerwas, the son of a bricklayer, was a straight-shooting, no-nonsense kind of guy who believed that living as true disciples of Jesus in the world would necessarily put us in conflict with the culture in which we live. I remember being surprised to hear him say that participating in the Eucharist was one of the most radical actions any Christian could undertake. Tonight we will understand why this is true.\nTonight we watch in wonder as the only-begotten Son of God, the Eternal Word who was \u201cin the beginning with God\u201d and through whom \u201call things came into being\u201d (Jn 1:1-3), stoops to wash the dirty feet of his disciples. Tonight we behold the Incarnate Son of God, the \u201cKing of kings\u201d and the \u201cLord of lords,\u201d tying a towel around himself, pouring water into a basin, and assuming the role of a servant. The King kneels before his subjects; the Master washes the feet of his disciples.

David Vryhof\nThis story is reminiscent of another Gospel story, when Jesus found his disciples arguing about which of them would be greatest in the kingdom of God (see Luke 9:46-48 or Mark 9:33-37). He realized that they had not yet understood the import of his message: that what is valued and sought after in the world is not what is most prized in the kingdom of God. On that occasion he taught them, saying, \u201cWhoever wants to be first must be last of all and servant of all\u201d (Mk 9:35). The aim of life in the kingdom was not self-exaltation, but self-offering, the laying down of one\u2019s life in service to God and to one\u2019s neighbor.\nHere we see a similar situation \u2013 not among Jesus\u2019 disciples, but among the dinner guests at a Pharisee\u2019s house. Jesus notices them seeking the places of honor, motivated no doubt by the desire to be noticed and deemed important by the other guests. He tells them that when they attend such a banquet, they should deliberately choose the lowest place, because \u201call who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted\u201d (v.11).

        "raw_content": "After Peter\u2019s address to the people on the day of the Pentecost, those who heard him \u201cwere cut to the heart, and said to Peter and to the others Apostles, \u2018Brothers, what should we do? \u2018Peter said to them, \u2018Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ so that your sins may be forgive, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit\u201d (Acts 2:37-38).\nBaptism in the name of Jesus is the sign of the faith in Jesus and the acceptance of his teaching, according to his command to his disciples before his Ascension to heaven: \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 (Mt 28:18-20).\n\u201cHoly Baptism is the basis of the whole Christian life, the gateway to life in the Spirit, and the door which gives access to the other sacraments. Through Baptism we are freed from sin and reborn as children of God, we become members of Christ, are incorporated into the Church and made sharers in her mission. Baptism is the sacrament of regeneration, through water and in the word. This sacrament is called Baptism, after the central rite by which it is carried out: to baptize (Creek baptizein) means to plunge or immerse, the plunge into the water symbolizes the catechumen\u2019s burial into Christ\u2019s death, from which he rises up by resurrection with him, \u2018as a new creature\u2019 (2 Corinthians 5: 17, Galatians 6: 15)\u201d Catechism of the Catholic Church, Par 1213.\n1. A New Creature\nIn his encounter with Nicodemus, Jesus speaks of the necessity in order to enter the Kingdom of God, to \u201cbe born anew\u201d or according to another translation, \u201cto be born from above.\u201d \u201cVery truly, I tell you, no one can see the Kingdom of God without being born from above\u2026 No one can enter the Kingdom of God without being born of water and Spirit. What is born from the flesh is flesh and what is born from the Spirit is spirit.\u201d (John3: 3-5)\nThis new birth divinizes man, by renewing him by the Spirit of God: he is \u201cborn of God\u201d and \u201cGod\u2019s seed abides in him\u201d (1 John 3:9). This is what also St. Peter means by saying we became \u201cparticipants of the divine nature\u201d (2 Peter 1:4). The Father of the Church compare the effect of the Holy Spirit in the soul of the baptized to the effect of a piece of iron which, when put in fire, becomes burning like the fire: the iron participates in fire\u2019s nature.\nSt. Paul speaks of this new life as participation in the death and Resurrection of Jesus, death to sin and resurrection to a new life: \u201ctherefore we have been buried with him by baptism into death, so that, just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, so we too might walk in newness of life\u201d (Romans 6:4_5)\n2. Baptism and the Original Sin\nThe original sin is a state of sin, which every new born in the flesh inherits since the first man called by the Book of Genesis \u201cAdam\u201d. Christianity, based on what Jesus said, and on what the Apostles believed and proclaimed in the New Testament, believes that, by Baptism, one passes from the state of sin to the state of grace, from the state of \u201cthe old Adam\u201d to the stat of \u201cthe new Adam\u201d, who is Jesus Christ himself, who ushered in a new being and a new way of living. This is the meaning of the expressions like \u201cto become a new creature\u201d, to be born \u201canew\u201d, to be born \u201cfrom above\u201d, to be born from the \u201cwater and the Spirit\u201d, to become \u201cparticipants of the divine nature\u201d. All these expressions mean that Baptism starts in the life of the baptized a new life, a new existence: \u201cIf anyone is in Christ, there is a new creation\u201d (2 Corinthians 5: 17)\nThis new existence in Christ is the real human existence according to God\u2019s will since he created man. This real human existence is what the Book of Genesis describes in a symbolic way in the paradise before Adam\u2019s sin. By Baptism, on puts on Christ, enters a new state of being, and starts a new way, the way which is Christ himself (\u201cI am the way\u201d, says Jesus, \u201cand the Truth and the Life\u201d \u2013 John 14:6), a way of grace, of holiness and of union with God. This does not mean that baptized is no more exposed to the various temptations of the sin, he remains a human being, and he has to struggle his whole life to stay faithful to the grace he has received by Baptism. Christian life is a long journey, in which the Christian works every day to become more and more \u201cwhat he is\u201d as Christian. His goal is to reach \u201cto the maturity, to the measure of the full stature of Christ\u201d (Ephesians 4:13).\nWe said, when we spoke of the creation of man, that God created man in his image and likeness, and this image is the image of his Son Jesus Christ. Baptism is the restoration in the human being of this image of Christ and the beginning of a new life, in which the Christian aims at becoming \u201cwhat he is\u201d as a new creature n Jesus Christ.\n3. Baptism is Incorporation into the Church, the Body of Christ\nThe mystery of God\u2019s will, which God made known to us, \u201caccording to his good purpose that he set forth I Christ, as a plan for the fullness of time\u201d is \u201c to gather up all things in him, things in the heaven and things on earth.\u201d (Ephesians 1:9_ 10)\nBy uniting every baptized to Christ, all those who are baptized constitute the Church, which is the Body of Christ: \u201cBaptism makes us members of the Body of Christ: \u2018therefore\u2026 we are members one of another\u2019 (Ephesians 4: 25). Baptism incorporate us into the Church. From the baptismal fonts is born the one People of God of the new Covenant, which transcends all the natural of human limits of nation, cultures, races, and sexes: \u2018For in the one Spirit we were all baptized into on body\u2019 (1 Corinthians 12:13). Catechism of the Catholic Church, Par. 1267.\n\u201cThe Baptized have become \u2018living stones\u2019 to be \u2018built into a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood\u2019 (1 Peter 2:5). By Baptism they share in the priesthood of Christ, in royal priesthood, a holy nation, God\u2019s own people, that they may declare the wonderful deeds of him who called them out of darkness into his marvelous light\u2019 (1 Peter 2:9). Baptism gives a share in the common priesthood of all believers.\nBaptism is given only once. If it is valid, it is not to be repeated. A baptism is valid if it is performed in a Church who believes in the Holy Trinity and in a rite where the celebrant uses water, while reciting the formula \u201cin the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.\u201d\n\u201cIncorporated into Christ by Baptism, the person baptized is configured to Christ. Baptism seals the Christian with the indelible mark (character) of his belonging to Christ. No sin can erase this mark, even if sin prevents Baptism from bearing the fruits of salvation. Given once for all, Baptism cannot be repeated.\u201d The reason is that once God have given anyone, by Baptism, the grace of adoption in Jesus Christ, he will never retract his grace. The prodigal son, in the parable given by Jesus in St. Luke, took \u201chis share of the estate\u201d and left his father\u2019s house \u201cfor a distant country where he squandered his money on a life of debauchery\u201d (Luke 15:13), \u201chis share of the estate\u201d is a symbol of the grace given to man by God, and the life of debauchery is the life of sin. When he came back repentant, his Father didn\u2019t reject him, but made a feast to celebrate his returning. \u201cIf we are faithless\u201d, says St. Paul, \u201che [Christ] remains faithful, for he cannot deny himself\u2019 (2 Timothy 2:13).",

Since that ruling, scores of other cases have shaped and defined the ruling that created a staple of police procedural dramas.\nEntire TV shows are dedicated to them and Americans love to watch a live one, but police chases aren't as routine as they seem.

From ...\nFAIRFIELD, NJ - Fairfield Farms is one of the last working farms in Essex County. Located on 177 Big Piece Road and owned by Sal and Joyce Francavilla, it is one of the oldest farms in Fairfield, dating back to when the town was still part of Caldwell Township.\nThe Francavilla family story began in Avellino, Italy, where Sal\u2019s grandparents, Salvatore and Maria, owned a tomato processing factory. Looking to better themselves, they boarded a ship and landed at Ellis Island in 1911.\nSalvatore and Maria traveled to America when Maria was pregnant with their second child, Ralph, who was Sal\u2019s dad. Her first child, Frances, was born in Italy and died in New Jersey at a very young age. In the United States, Maria had seven more children: Ralph, Anna, John, Tony, Charles and Vera. John became the mayor of Fairfield in the 1960s.\nThe young family settled in Little Ferry and opened a seed store.\nIn the early 1920s, Salvatore and Maria moved with their children to Fairfield, where they bought 100 acres of land extending from Sand Road to Big Piece Road and onto Hollywood Avenue.\nThey supplied greens, including kohlrabi, mustard, kale, escarole, chicory, radishes, scallions and beets, to all of Newark at the Newark Farmers\u2019 Market and the A & P stores in the tri-state area.\nAccording to Sal, his family bought the Hennion Homestead, which he said is now 127 Hollywood Avenue. As a side note, the Hennion Homestead is part of Fairfield\u2019s early history. According to Mrs. Morris Collerd in the Feb. 2, 1977 Chronicle, Daniel Hennion was born in 1828 at a home on Horseneck Road but lived in Fairfield for some time with his wife, Abbie J. Davis. They later moved to Caldwell, and he eventually sold the farm. Before the Francavilla family purchased the Hennion house in 1923, there were several other homeowners on record. When the Francavillas bought the home, they completely renovated the old 19th century homestead.\nSal\u2019s parents had five children, Mary, Sal, Rose, Terri and Linda.\nIn the 1940s, Sal\u2019s dad, Ralph, farmed 60 acres of land from Hollywood Avenue to Big Piece Road. Much of it was considered low lands.\nThe family also bought land in South Carolina and on the eastern shore of Virginia, and the produce that was grown there was trucked into Montclair, South Orange and Newark. Along the way from the south, they needed to visit ice stations because trucks were not equipped with refrigeration at that time.\nSal\u2019s sister, Mary, who just turned 80, remembers that her grandfather, Salvatore, decided that her father, Ralph, and his family would be sent to South Carolina to live there and run the farm.\nMary remembers that the farm was just outside of Charleston, and she was only 3 years old. She said that her mom was not very happy about this move because she had to leave her family, but she was \u201cstoic about it.\u201d\nDue to an event that occurred in New Jersey, the family moved back to Fairfield, and Mary has vivid memories of many soldiers being on the train ride home since it was during World War II.\nMary also remembers her Aunt Sue, who owned the Romano farm on Horseneck Road, as a great story teller. She said that \u201csome stories were so funny with lots of giggles, and others were scary.\u201d She also said that Aunt Sue\u2019s daughter Mary Ann Romano DeMaio takes after her mother as \u201ca great story teller.\u201d There were no electronical devices back then, and storytelling was a great means of entertainment.\nSal recalls that when he didn't have to work on the farm, he and his friends would ride their bikes all over the area. Some friends lived on Pier Lane, and after Sal met up with them, they would ride all the way into Singac. Sal has very fond memories of this.\nHe also remembers ice skating on low lands near Henning Drive and Barbara Drive. He said, \u201cI had a good time there.\u201d\nAnother memory of Sal\u2019s was eating fried cauliflower that was prepared by Red Esposito at the fire department.\nHaving to work on the farm, Sal never got a chance to play any high school sports. He would have like to have been on the high school wrestling team, but the farm came first, and work is never done on a farm.\nThe Francavilla\u2019s also owned the property on Passaic Avenue and Bloomfield Avenue where CVS is now located. In the late 1960s, it was a rhubarb farm.\nSal said in the early 1970s things started to change. Instead of growing an abundance of greens, their farm had to change to meet the demands of the people who preferred sweet corn, tomatoes, peppers, radishes, lettuce and pumpkins.\nIn 1975, Sal and Joyce got married and set up a farm stand on Hollywood Avenue in front of the farm. They worked on the farm harvesting corn, tomatoes, and other summer crops.\nThen from 1989 to 1999, they became involved with Jersey Fresh and trucked their vegetables to farmers\u2019 markets in Verona, South Orange, Millburn and Montclair. Joyce said, \u201cWe were one of the first farms to join Jersey Fresh and helped get the program going.\u201d The Francavilla family became the poster family for the organization.\nEventually they gave this up and decided to stay in the greenhouse business and run harvest activities like hay rides, pumpkin picking, and hosting farm trips for school children.\nThey moved the farm stand from Hollywood Avenue to Big Piece Road, which was nearer to their own home. The couple sold 12 of their 35 acres to developers to build single-family homes on Hollywood Avenue.\nSal\u2019s older sister, Mary, has fond memories of her days on the farm, even though, as she admits, it was very hard work.\nHere are some of Mary\u2019s memories of life on the farm in Fairfield Township:\n\u201cLooking back all those years ago I've had to dig up some memories,\" Mary said. \"I think I took it all for granted and have come to appreciate some of the lifestyle of that era. Both mom and dad were both from farming famiIies, so it was in our blood, but I'm sure I did not appreciate that when I was young. I worked on the farm when I was quite young, and I know I did not like that! Although I did save money and bought myself a brand new two wheeler bicycle, which I was riding every minute I could, and I still have scars on my knees from the falls I took!\n\"I think as we get older we appreciate some of the small things we may have taken for granted. For instance, I now understand and appreciate how hard my dad worked on the farm and how hard my brother still works on a small part of the farm.\n\"Mom used to ask me to walk in the fields and get some fresh veggies for dinner like string beans, radishes, tomatoes and some fresh basil from her own little garden near the house.\n\"Now I live in south Jersey where there are many truck farms growing all of those things. I just go to their market and buy them. But I still have at least one tomato plant in my yard. I love to go out there and see a ripe one and pop it into my mouth, still warm from the sun. And I also have my own herbs and make pesto. I always add some type of fresh herb to almost everything I cook.\n\"Working in the dirt is in my blood. I love it now, and it is a type of therapy for me, until my body tells me I've done enough! I do appreciate the lifestyle. I like the slower pace, the wide open spaces and seeing the fresh crops growing on the beautiful farms just down the road from me. And there is no traffic here. It's just peaceful farmland. Farmers grow all the fresh vegetables and fruits that I grew up with living on a farm in that farmland community so many years ago in Fairfield.\n\"The time came each year as school started when my mom began her annual canning, and it was a lot of work. Each day as I got off the bus from school, she called me to go and help her. I would change clothes, grab a snack and back to work. We made jam, put up sliced fresh peaches that we picked ourselves at local orchards and jarred lots of Italian tomato sauce. It was quite a process and a lot of work, but we enjoyed that sauce all winter with our pasta. And sometimes when we were lucky, Mom made homemade pasta. Nothing like it, it was wonderful!\n\"After work was done, we played in our yard, sometimes with our neighbor friends, the Hennings, Unglaubs, Eckardts, Ruggieros and Sperrys, and it was always fun. There was lots of energy left to play after all the work was done.\n\"Work...that is one thing that is always there on a farm, and Caldwell Township, as it was called at that time, had quite a few farms with hard working people running them.\n\"We mostly left the township to visit family, and there were lots of them. I have fond memories of grandparents, aunts, uncles and lots and lots of cousins. Folks could always take the bus to Caldwell, up the hill, for a quarter to go to the movies, shop or visit, but Mom was our bus. She always drove us in the family car.\n\"Caldwell Township was very rural at that time with a small population. It has changed so much over the years. There is shopping all along the highways and an increase in population with people coming from the eastern parts of Essex County to move to the country to live in our township.\n\"I like to remember it the way it was then when the very rural public school had only about 20 children in each class and with people you would spend eight or nine years with growing and learning together. I actually am still in touch on a regular basis with some of those people.\n\"I remember those early years at school, home with family and time spent with friends from school in the neighborhood. Life was so simple then, but time does march on, and we all get busy living our own lives. But it's always nice to think of those good old days.\u201d\nMary has two sons and four grandchildren, who all live near her, except for her traveling granddaughter, Gina, who is now living in Las Vegas.\nFairfield Farms now is open during the spring, summer and fall seven days a week selling plants from their greenhouses and fruits and vegetables, along with all types of fall activities.\nSal and Joyce feel the success of their business was a willingness to change with the times and to put in a lot of hard work. Fairfield Farms and the Francavilla family are truly a big part of Fairfield farm history.\nFor more information, visit fairfieldfarms.net.\nDon\u2019t miss important news in your town.

        "raw_content": "Native: A Novel (Paperback)\nBy William Haywood Henderson, Benjamin Alire Saenz (Introduction by)\nFour years before Annie Proulx\u2019s story \u201cBrokeback Mountain\u201d appeared in the New Yorker, William Haywood Henderson published Native, the tale of three gay men ensnared in the politics and prejudices of an isolated ranching town in Wyoming\u2019s Wind River Valley. Blue Parker, a careful twenty-three-year-old ranch foreman, in love with the West and his home in the mountains, finds himself drawn to his new ranch hand, Sam. For the first time in his life, Blue feels the possibility of a romantic connection, and he makes tentative plans to secret himself and Sam away in an idyllic camp high in the mountains. But the arrival in town of Gilbert, a Native American from the Wind River Indian Reservation, a man who fancies himself a modern-day berdache (or Two-Spirit), pushes Blue and Sam in unexpected, dangerous directions. Gilbert attempts to recreate the ancient traditions of his people, but the world has changed. Ultimately, Gilbert must try to find a new place for himself in society, and Blue must choose between his home and protecting the man he loves.\nWilliam Haywood Henderson teaches writing at the nonprofit Lighthouse Writers Workshop in Denver, Colorado, and is the author of The Rest of the Earth and Augusta Locke. Benjamin Alire S\u00e1enz is a professor of creative writing at the University of Texas at El Paso and the author of books of poetry, collections of short stories, and several novels, most recently Names on a Map.\n\u201cThe poignancy with which Henderson unfolds his tale is both graceful and horrific. Native is a book to make one think\u2014and think again.\u201d\u2014Village Voice\n\u201cHenderson\u2019s moody, near mystical evocation of the Western heart owes more to the spirit of The Scarlet Letter than to Louis L\u2019Amour. Native is a cowboy story unlike any other.\u201d\u2014Boston Globe\n\u201cThis is an original novel, a stereotype-shattering vision of the American West and its people.\u201d\u2014Hudson Review\n\u201cWith Native, Henderson instantly joins the company of [Edward] Abbey, Tom Spanbauer, and Larry McMurtry as a writer with a unique and compelling vision of the modern West and a talent to put that vision into words.\u201d\u2014Echo\n\u201cDazzling. . . . Reveals the gift and power of an exceptional writer.\u201d\u2014Advocate\n\"Native is a thoroughly western novel about longing and about the implied promises of the landscape to answer the longing of solitary, gay men who simultaneously yearn for isolation and connection. . . . It is the complexity, the pain, and the ambivalence of these men that make Henderson's Native compelling.\"\u2014Elizabeth Abele, Western American Literature\n\u2014 Elizabeth Abele",

        "raw_content": "Definition - What does Common Information Model (CIM) mean?\nThe Common Information Model (CIM) is a method of representing the various actively used computing devices associated with an enterprise and the relation between them. CIM is designed and published by the Distributed Management Task Force (DMTF) and is a part of Web-based enterprise management (WBEM). The CIM model aims to simplify the task of managing different computing devices in an enterprise.\nTechopedia explains Common Information Model (CIM)\nEnterprises use different computing devices for their specific purposes, and each device has specific associated hardware and applications. To manage the devices efficiently, the properties associated with each device and its application, along with its relation to the other devices in the system, has to be represented. The CIM provides a means of object-oriented representation of such devices, which is implemented using an object-oriented language such as Unified Modeling Language (UML). For example, a company that buys different routers from different companies would be able to view the same kind of information (such as name, model number, network capacity and relationship to other devices and applications) and will also be able to access that information through a program. CIM uses XML to represent information about the products it manages.\nThe CIM model uses classes to represent computing devices such as hard drives or printers. The CIM classes support functions that include query and status functions. The manager can query the properties from a CIM class and gain insight on the device represented. The manager can also modify the CIM class to include additional relationships or functions in the device represented. Both the general and specific properties of a device can be represented with the help of parent/child inheritance.\nWeb-Based Enterprise Management (WBEM)\nStorage Management Initiative Specification (SMI-S)\nDevelopment.NETXML",

Ariel Zurawski, Mr Urban's boss and his cousin, said he lost contact with the truck driver at around 4pm.\nAnis Amri, suspected of being involved in the Berlin Christmas market attack, that killed 12 people on December 19.\nThe attack on the Christmas market at Breitscheidplatz did not take place until 8pm, at which point Mr Urban would have been incapable of grasping a steering wheel, Bild reported.\nThe 37-year-old is believed to have been attacked by Amri after he parked his lorry at Freidrich-Krause-Ufer in the German capital, as he waited to unload a shipment of steel.\nLast Friday, Berlin state interior minister Andreas Geisel said Mr Urban had \"quite probably\" tried to disrupt the attack by seizing control of the steering wheel before being shot in the head after the truck veered to the left.\nThe vehicle came to a halt after driving for just 60 metres into the market that extended more than 400 metres, averting further deaths.\nCCTV image of Mr Urban captured on the day he died\nThis led to the start of a crowdfunding campaign that raised over $170,000 (\u00a3138,000) for the family of Mr Urban.\nThe campaign was started by British truck driver Dave Duncan a day after the assailant attacked Mr Urban and hijacked his truck.\n\"I started this with the intention of raising a few hundred pounds for the family from good hearted British truck drivers,\" Mr Duncan wrote on the GoFundMe fundraising website.\n\"Amazing generosity from everybody literally all around the world.....incredible.\" \"I can assure everybody who has donated that their gifts will get to Lukasz's family, even if it means driving to Poland myself,\" added Mr Duncan, who is from Otley in West Yorkshire.\n\"Although it is wonderful to receive messages of support, I am no hero or angel. I am simply a truck driver with a small idea that snowballed with your generosity. Lukasz is the only hero!\"\nOn Wednesday, the manager of Mr Urban's Polish trucking company, Lukasz Wasik, described Mr Urban as a \"good, quiet and honest person\" who was devoted to his work.\nAnd Beata Szydlo, the Polish prime minister, said said Mr Urban's teenage son and wife would receive a special pension, calling the driver \"heroic\".

Dr. Manolis Thanasas D.D.S. takes the time to speak with each patient and discuss ways that they can improve their oral health. This may involve us demonstrating how to brush teeth correctly, floss or discuss dietary changes that can strengthen teeth. For example, many people don\u2019t know that acidic foods are bad for teeth and can directly lead to erosion and a loss of enamel. Simultaneously, diary products, nuts and crunchy vegetables can actually help to strengthen teeth and prevent cavities. These are the types of things that we discuss in our dental office so that patients can improve their oral health in between visits. If you live in or around the 48085 area, we recommend that you schedule teeth cleanings for twice a year. When you do, feel free to discuss any concerns that you have and ask for tips for keeping your teeth and gums healthier.\nFor those that have a dental emergency and need a tooth repaired, we offer dental restorations as well. This may involve correcting a tooth that has been cracked or chipped. We can do so using dental veneers or a dental crown and make the restoration blend in with the surrounding teeth for a perfectly natural appearance. Once the restoration is complete, Dr. Manolis Thanasas D.D.S. will ensure that it is durable, strong, and the perfect fit so that the tooth will function properly as it once did. Patients throughout the 48085 area, appreciate that they can have their teeth repaired rather than having them pulled.\nIf a tooth does fall out due to an accident or infection, we can assist with that as well. In our Troy dental office, we can replace missing teeth using a variety of methods. Some of the most common methods are removable dentures, dental bridges, and dental implants. While losing a tooth can be traumatic, it doesn\u2019t have to be permanent when working with Dr. Manolis Thanasas D.D.S..\nDental offices have the advantage of using modern technology to improve dental care. We are excited about the advancements that have been made in dentistry because they have opened up a world of possibilities.

        "title": "The Radical Grace of Gengoroh Tagame - The Awl",
        "raw_content": "The Radical Grace of Gengoroh Tagame\nby Bryan Washington July 12, 2017\n\u2018My Brother\u2019s Husband\u2019 and the tradition of gay manga.\nIn the first volume of My Brother\u2019s Husband, the Japanese manga created by Gengoroh Tagame, a single father hosts the spouse of his dead twin brother. After his sibling\u2019s death in Canada, Yaichi and his daughter come to terms with it, while his brother-in-law, Mike, navigates Tokyo\u2019s suburbs for the very first time. They settle into a wavering domesticity. That the story isn\u2019t entirely tragic is a testament to the author\u2019s mastery: widely described as \u201cJapan\u2019s most influential gay manga artist,\u201d Tagame is playful throughout. He is assertive, occasionally goofy, and forgiving with his characters, and as Yaichi picks apart the walls of his ignorance, the narrative allows him the room to grow.\nAs Alison Bechdel has noted, the work is \u201cvery different from [Tagame\u2019s] customary fare\u201d; the artist\u2019s oeuvre is generally queer, but it\u2019s also a good deal more explicit. His narratives usually delve into BDSM, and S&M, lingering on the extremes of human sexuality. Since the \u201980s, Tagame has pushed the boundaries of what was \u201callowed\u201d in gay manga. But My Brother\u2019s Husband is largely sexless. It\u2019s very nearly chaste, and (almost) entirely safe for kids. And, as a whole, the work might be even more revolutionary than anything he\u2019s produced before.\nTagame works in a sub-genre of manga called bara, which is itself a cousin of yaoi, which can be loosely defined as \u201cboys\u2019 love\u201d (it\u2019s an acronym derived from yama nashi, ochi nashi, imi nashi; or, \u201cno climax, no point, no meaning\u201d). Jamie James, in an essay for The New Yorker, notes that the genre \u201cwas coined in the nineteen-eighties to identify sentimental stories about beautiful boys\u201d:\nIn its essentials, yaoi is an updating of the cult of boy worship in feudal samurai culture, known as shud\u014d, the Way of the Boy, in which an adult warrior took an adolescent disciple as his lover. In the Tokugawa shogunate (1603\u20131867), this pederastic arrangement was not only tolerated but normative, regarded as a more refined taste than the love of women, with spiritual connotations. The seme\u2013uke dichotomy in yaoi fiction follows the samurai model, with the key modern innovation that the lovers are the same age, or nearly.\nBut while yaoi is generally marketed with a female audience in mind, and plots whose formulas skew towards more heteronormative norms, bara is almost always created by and for gay men. While yaoi\u2019s character\u2019s often don\u2019t identify as homosexual, the opposite is true of bara. Yaoi\u2019s characters are slim in proportion, while bara\u2019s are muscular, if not bearish, damn near all of the time. And if yaoi doesn\u2019t always belie sex, bara\u2019s intercourse is multi-paneled, explicit, and occasionally fetishitic; but, in a funny way, it makes sense that the genre\u2019s most revered practitioner has conjured a loving portrait of a man just beginning to reckon with the layers of sexuality.\nDistributed and translated by Pantheon Books, My Brother\u2019s Husband is one of Tagame\u2019s first legally distributed English publications. But American readers aren\u2019t entirely unfamiliar with his work. In 2013, PictureBox published The Passion of Gengoroh Tagame, a sold-out compendium. Gmunder Books has regularly published him in English since 2014. My Brother\u2019s Husband netted Tagame a Japan Media Arts Award from the Agency of Cultural Affairs (a big fucking deal), and, with the series, a creator whose work couldn\u2019t have otherwise have surfaced in polite conversation has garnered praise and widespread adulation.\nIn interviews, Tagame is very self-aware. In a chat with the Huffington Post, he noted the structural differences, saying he was \u201cmuch more careful and deliberate about the art then, so it wasn\u2019t as much about the story. It was about the graphics. It wasn\u2019t pornography, and it didn\u2019t depict sex; it depicted eroticism.\u201d But Tagame hasn\u2019t sweated the implications of the change in his aesthetic too much either, and talking with Chris Randle over at Hazlitt, he notes that, \u201cin stories and in eroticism, I\u2019m very particular about heroes, and I\u2019m very concerned with the idea of the hero, but the hero that I fantasize or dream of isn\u2019t someone who builds nations or brings peoples together, but a person who\u2019s falling apart.\u201d\nThroughout My Brother\u2019s Husband, those same sentiments are embodied by Yaichi: he is constantly coming to terms with himself. First, he navigates his brother\u2019s homosexuality. And then his revulsion towards it. And then his daughter\u2019s unvarnished acceptance, and the apprehensiveness of his neighbors, and watching him reckon with his brother\u2019s ghost is as affecting as any conflict in literature. At one point, after Mike explains that there was no \u201cfemale\u201d in his marriage (\u201cWe were husband and husband\u201d), it takes Yaichi watching the epiphany spread across his daughter\u2019s face to jumpstart his own illumination. \u201cI had no idea,\u201d Yaichi says, staring into nothing, \u201cAbout any of it.\u201d\nThe work\u2019s acclaim in Japan is a minor miracle: despite recognizing same-sex partnerships in a handful of Tokyo\u2019s wards, the nation as a whole is largely apprehensive towards same-sex marriage. There are Pride parades in the larger cities, and a scattering of gay bars in those same hubs, and the threat of physical violence may not be as high as in some countries, but social stigma, from the outset, is a big enough deterrent to keep folks from living openly.\nBut Japan rewriting the rules for gay fiction shouldn\u2019t be entirely shocking, either: the country\u2019s culture has made space for male-on-male sexuality in print since the seventeenth century. From Ihara Saikaku\u2019s story collection The Great Mirror of Male Love (1687), to Utamaro Kitagwa\u2019s erotic wood prints, to Ogai Mori\u2019s novel Vita Sexualis (1909), Japanese artists have investigated the contours of gay love, free of the West\u2019s religious stigma, for centuries. What isn\u2019t entirely accepted in public has been given free roam to expand on paper, and it could be as Yukio Mishima alludes to in his novel Confessions of a Mask: \u201cPrudery is a form of selfishness, a means of self-protection made necessary by the strength of one\u2019s own desires. But my true desires were so secret that they did not allow even this form of self-indulgence.\u201d\nSince the \u201990s, the American entities publishing gay manga in translation have continued to expand, chipping their way around the mainstream. But their prevalence in the States\u2019 comic culture isn\u2019t nearly as expansive as the medium\u2019s counterparts: ever since the introduction of series\u2019 like Lone Wolf and Cub, Appleseed, and Sailor Moon around the late 80\u2019s, American comic publishers began investing in manga as a business booster. Animated franchises like Dragon Ball, Akira, and Neon Genesis Evangelion multiplied this expansion in the 90\u2019s, before Pokemon solidified it; and Japanese publishers set their own sights on the stateside market shortly afterwards. But of the manga and anime series\u2019 that have made it big in the States, none are overtly gay. And while, a fraction of a fraction the time, a series suggesting homosexuality slips through the mainstream, until the early-aughts your best bet for finding bara and yaoi were the illegally scanned translation hubs pocketed across the internet.\nBut while the scanlation hubs persist, a handful of American entities are legally publishing gay manga. And some like MASSIVE GOODS, have worked every available angle (to great success), from manga to apparel to accessories, gaining notice from Out to MTV to the New York Times. Founded by Anne Ishii and Graham Kolbeins, and currently helmed entirely by Ishii, MASSIVE has gained a substantial following since its inception in 2013. But as Ishii, corresponding over email, put it to me, with \u201cwhat felt like a clearly profit-less book model, it felt obvious to start a fashion line\u201d:\nIf I were to say one thing about the MASSIVE aesthetic, it is maximalist. Speaking only for myself, minimalist trends depress me. I mean I love clean lines and gajillion dollar Eames chairs like everyone else but I also cringe around Helevitca. I want to feel like I\u2019m being hugged by design, not being delivered an SAT exam. Graham and I have both been fond of the bold and the large and the beautiful. Chip Kidd, who contributes to our aesthetic, and designs all the books, is also a sort of a maximalist, in my opinion. I\u2019ve tried to make what I think are relatively \u201csafe\u201d designs, but perhaps because the intent is visibly disingenuous or because our fans have so firmly made their imprint, the \u201csafe\u201d things don\u2019t move with the alacrity of our massive looks\nIshii noted that \u201cgay manga to many people is content that supersedes whether and how it is sanctioned.\u201d And, in this way, the publication of My Brother\u2019s Husband, from a major publisher is a quiet, sonic achievement: an art form whose primary audience could\u2019ve only been grown on the outskirts of the internet has entered the American book sphere.\nTagame is clear to distinguish between pornography and eroticism; and despite its lack of obvious sexual tension, the men in My Brother\u2019s Husband are definitively beautiful. The lines are full and bold. Their bodies are stout. The expressions on their faces are emotive in one panel, and aggressive in the next, before that anger dissolves entirely on the following page. Of course Tagame\u2019s a veteran of his form, and a master in the craft, but the emotion in his work doesn\u2019t always connote to sex. Sometimes, the subjects are a means to beautiful art. And, as he notes in an interview with The Huffington Post, that Tagame has molded his abilities to realize these very particular narratives is shocking, and heartening, and wholly inspiring:\n\u201cAt home, we had anthologies of classical art, and I was highly attracted to and influenced by the Hellenistic period. The most modern I went to was probably Baroque and pre-modern. In what I\u2019m depicting as sexual humiliation, Western religion is a big influence: Caravaggio\u2019s depictions of Christ\u2019s humiliation or his crucifixion, obviously. Things like that are in line with what I want to depict. Conversely, in the Japanese artistic tradition, there isn\u2019t really praising the nude. There are certainly depictions of violence, but there isn\u2019t a tradition of just the full male nude body. So in that sense, Western religious art has been a huge influence.\u201d\nIt mirrors a sentiment that Samuel Delany, a noted fan of bara, expressed in last month\u2019s interview with The Boston Review\nNot all explicit sex is pornographic. It can be educational, and I expect that a room full of forty to eighty year olds having sex and discussing their lives would be just that: educational\u2026 They aren\u2019t breaking any laws. They\u2019re enjoying themselves and caring for their own community. And they\u2019re talking honestly and intelligently.\nSometimes, that beauty incarnate is the goal. Depicting it in a very particular way, for a very particular audience, absence of erotics can prove erotic enough. One bara artist, Inu Yoshi (himself drawn to gay manga through Tagame\u2019s work in G-Men magazine) has said, \u201cI don\u2019t really want to put erotic scenes in my stories, but it\u2019s what sells magazines, and the magazines say it has to have that.\u201d Another creator, Fumi Miyabi, describes his own work as directly influenced by that aesthetic, noting that, \u201cI saw Tagame and Go Fujimoto and Keiichi Takasaki. I saw what I imagined gay erotic comics were supposed to look like, but it wasn\u2019t just gay\u200a\u2014\u200ait was also really great manga.\u201d\nSome artists are attracted to the aesthetic. Others are drawn to those came before them. And for others, as Tagame has elaborated for Vice, the distinction between those two impulses is infinitesimally small:\nPorn is a search for the perfect erotic expression. It\u2019s not necessarily self-assertiveness, nor a status symbol, but uncontrollable desires. Pursuing such pure pleasure is less complicated. In such pursuits, pornographic art is pure, fine art. My goal is beyond manga or porn, but to aim for the level of Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio.\nThere\u2019s a moment in \u00c9douard Louis\u2019s novel, The End of Eddy, where his narrator turns to the moment he acknowledged the \u201cpain\u201d of his sexuality:\nI thought that in the end I would get used to the pain. There is a way in which people do grow accustomed to pain, the way workers get used to back pain. Sometimes, yes, the pain regains the upper hand. They don\u2019t get all that used to it, really, they work around it, they learn to hide it.\nTagame\u2019s work covers a sort of pain in its own right: the pain of loss. The pain of difference. The pain of becoming something else, something new. Throughout My Brother\u2019s Husband, Tagame\u2019s characters are constantly coming into themselves, but the most affecting moment could be a scene, late in the volume, when a neighbor\u2019s kid skips school to approach Mike in Yaichi\u2019s home: \u201cI came over here,\u201d he says, \u201cA few times to see if you were real.\u201d\n\u201cAll I think about are boys\u2026 and I realized that\u2019s always been the case. I\u2019d heard things: homo, gay\u2026 I knew about it, but\u2026 I didn\u2019t know who anyone was. Nobody I knew anyways. When I looked online, I realized there were a lot of people like me. And I felt better. But some people wrote nasty things.

        "raw_content": "EDITORIAL: Review of investment act must be thorough\nOne of the government institutions that are decisively crucial to national development is the Tanzania Investment Centre (TIC). The Centre was statutorily established in 1997 as the primary public agency to coordinate, encourage, promote and facilitate investment in Tanzania \u2013 and to advise the government on investment policy and related matters.\nIn that regard, TIC deals with all enterprises whose minimum capital investment is not less than $500,000 if foreign-owned \u2013 or $100,000 if locally-owned. One oddity here is that enterprises which are engaged in mining and petroleum \u201cshall follow the approval process contained in their respective laws\u2026\u201d\nHowever, the Centre is obliged to assist all such investors in obtaining permits and other authorisations which may be required under other legislation to establish and operate investments in Tanzania.\nAll those statutory provisions notwithstanding, however \u2013 and, despite some commendable achievements in certain areas of its operational jurisdiction \u2013 the Investment Centre has in recent times been the target of calls for a review of its operations and legislative frameworks.\nAs noted in The Citizen\u2019s lead story yesterday, for example, the law governing investments in Tanzania makes it difficult for TIC to effectively coordinate projects related to mining, oil and gas, as well as hazardous chemicals. Furthermore \u2013 said the TIC executive director, Mr Geoffrey Mwambe \u2013 the Centre faces \u201cvarious challenges in promoting investments,\u201d effective addressing of which calls for a review of the 1997 Tanzania Investment Act.\nBut we also say that the proposed review must be thoroughly researched, grounded and comprehensive.\nThis is to ensure beyond doubt that not only is the final outcome unassailable \u2013 but also that Tanzania becomes the preferred investment destination in the charts and indices of development partners and prospective investors alike.",

        "raw_content": "We tend to associate financial activities and engagements such as credit and lending with our personal lives. We take out all sorts of financial agreements on a casual basis in our day to day routine \u2013 from phone bills and energy contracts to credit cards, mortgages, and loans. However, credit can play just as large a role in our professional lives too. Here are a few ways that you can use credit to your advantage when it comes to your small business!\nStarting Out or Expanding\nTwo of the most expensive periods in a business owners\u2019 life will be when you\u2019re first starting out or when you\u2019re expanding. Both of these processes require a lot of up-front cash to get the ball rolling. Whether you end up spending on web design, market research, product development, or advertising, you\u2019re going to be forking out somewhere. It\u2019s situations like these when you could use a business line of credit from a reliable provider like https://www.businesslineof.credit/. This is a form of revolving capital and works on a similar premise to that of a credit card. The loan is open, so you will be offered a credit limit. You will be able to spend up until your given credit limit, then can clear a certain amount, which will then become available to spend again!\nMaking the Most of Sales\nChances are that you use the same stockist or wholesaler for the raw materials that your company uses. Whether you specialise in clothing and customise plain wholesale tees and tote bags, or sell edible arrangements and source your ingredients from fruit wholesalers, there\u2019s bound to be someone who you go to for the main components for your products. Every now and then these companies are likely to let large amounts of stock go at a much lower price than usual. They may be trying to clear out warehouse space, old stock ahead of the launch of new stock, or they might simply be having a sale. You want to capitalise on these kinds of situations, getting as much cheap stock in as you need to tide you over. But sometimes you won\u2019t have enough cash on hand to make the most of flash sales. Nothing is more frustrating than having to fork out the standard price for a product knowing that it was on sale just a few days before! In situations like this you could use a small loan to your advantage. If a lender agrees, you will then be able to pay them this sum back in smaller installments over a longer period of time. This allows you to benefit from the sale and not miss out!\nThese are just two ways that engagement with credit and lending can benefit your small business. Just make sure to only borrow what you can afford to repay and to always read through the terms of your agreement before signing up. Then stick your agreement to maintain and improve your credit score in the process.\nRelated Items:Business Moves, Business Tips",

        "title": "If No One Can Afford Driverless Cars, Will They Even Matter? \u00bb The Culture Supplier",
        "raw_content": "By: Catherine Metcalf\nIt\u2019s no secret that auto companies are hailing driverless cars as the answer to all our road troubles. Artificial Intelligence will make our cars smarter and more focused than human drivers could ever be. At the same time, advanced camera mapping technology is predicted to gift the vehicles with perfect vision in any weather condition.\nWith all the rapid technological advancement happening in the auto sector, it almost seems like inevitable that everyone will be able to sit back and relax at the wheel in just a few years\u2019 time. However, before that can happen, the technology needs to become more accessible \u2013 especially from a budgetary standpoint.\nAs it sits today, fully autonomous vehicles are predicted to go for as much as $400,000. Part of the reason for that is because it\u2019s mainly luxury automakers that are exploring the technological possibilities. Brands like Audi, Tesla, and BMW are all working towards outfitting their high-end cars with the costly (but necessary) driverless tech.\nIt seems extreme that driverless cars will be so expensive. Unfortunately, it seems to be realistic, at least for now.\nThe high price point can also be attributed to the fact that the cost of the technology will be added to the existing value of a vehicle. This means that a consumer is looking at an additional minimum cost of between $8,000 and $10,000.\nMany experts agree that the price of the technology is unrealistic for the average consumer. As a result, this could be the very thing that prevents this exciting advancement from becoming widespread.\nDriverless cars will be a failure if they can\u2019t lessen, or at least prevent, the high number of collisions and injuries after a car accident that occur on the road each year. A reliable sight system is perhaps the most important part of any autonomous car. The current system in place is LIDAR, a laser sensor that can almost instantaneously map out the area surrounding the vehicle.\nUnfortunately, Velodyne\u2019s top-of-the-line LIDAR system costs about $75,000. This model has 64 laser channels that provide the car with a 360-degree view of the world around it. An inferior but less expensive option is their smaller unit that\u2019s fitted with a mere 16 lasers. This would add roughly $8,000 to vehicle cost.\nThat\u2019s not to say that an automaker can get away with only adding one, lower-end LIDAR system per vehicle. The safest and best vehicles will be run by multiple LIDAR devices placed around the vehicle. These would be in addition to radar systems, cameras, and various other hardware and technology in order to ensure the safest experience for drivers, passengers, and pedestrians.\nWill the Average Consumer Ever Own a Driverless Car?\nAs it stands now, it\u2019s simply unrealistic to expect that the average consumer will be willing to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on technology that isn\u2019t entirely justifiable. Luckily for automakers, not all is lost.\nAlthough the current cost of a self-driving car is high, as with many technologies, the older the tech gets, the cheaper it will become. Companies will be able to cut down on costs as they perfect the technology, and start-ups could enter the market with cheap but equally efficient camera systems.\nAnother possibility for the technology is that it could be used by ride-sharing services like Uber and Lyft. Thanks to their high-profit businesses, these large companies would be able to bear the burden of the high price-point. While that would mean you personally might not own a driverless vehicle, it could cut down on the cost of a rideshare or private car, as the need for a human driver is reduced (or one day, completely eliminated).\nA successful, fully autonomous vehicle is still some time away in the future. This gives developers an opportunity to perfect the technology while bringing down the cost of the vehicles. If something doesn\u2019t change, or there isn\u2019t an adequate substitute for the average consumer, driverless cars may just be a tech fad before being left off the roads.",

        "raw_content": "Murdoch Phone-Hacking Scandal Expands From U.K. to Australia\nAn Aussie businessman once at the center of a scandal over alleged hacking of Cherie Blair\u2019s phone is told he may have been phone-hacked too, reports Peter Jukes.\nElise Amendola / AP Photo\nThe phone-hacking scandal that has upended the British political and media establishment has expanded to Australia, where the federal police have contacted a businessman once at the center of a tabloid scandal known as Cheriegate\u2014as it involved Cherie Blair, wife of former prime minister Tony Blair\u2014to inform him that, he too, may have had his telephone hacked.\nThe businessman, Peter Foster, told The Daily Beast in a phone interview on Monday that he recently was told by Australian officers, acting on behalf of the British police, that detectives had found his old mobile phone number and data relating to it on a computer in London, suggesting his phone had been hacked. (The Australian Federal Police confirmed in a statement that agents had visited Foster but would not comment further.)\nIn a twist that could spell further trouble for Rupert Murdoch\u2019s London-based tabloids, Foster claims he also was contacted last week by a Dublin-based private investigator, who said he had been working for The Sun newspaper through a London agency at the time of the scandal.\nThe Australian businessman, who has been convicted in both the U.K. and the U.S. for scams involving health-care products, helped the Blairs buy property in Bristol, and he and his then girlfriend, Carole Caplin, attended various social events with the prime minister and his wife. After Foster\u2019s criminal record came to light, Foster and Caplin split up, and Foster returned to his birthplace on the Gold Coast in Queensland, Australia.\nAccording to Foster, the investigator told him that, for four days at the height of Cheriegate, he had been sitting with another detective outside Foster\u2019s mother\u2019s flat in the Dublin suburbs, intercepting and recording the calls to her cordless landline.\nThough the investigator refused to be identified, Foster said he believes the man\u2019s claims to be genuine, because the investigator could recall conversations Foster had had with his mother that were never made public, and because of the investigator\u2019s ability to describe his mother\u2019s apartment.\nFoster told The Daily Beast that, until last week, he had always assumed it was his London landline that had been bugged, perhaps by the security services. It had never occurred to him his mother could have been the target, he added. He also said he would willingly submit evidence to the Leveson Inquiry, which is looking into practices of the British press, merely to set the record straight. \u201cWe didn\u2019t know what was happening ... Carole and I got quite paranoid. When those tapes came out I thought, oh-oh, this has gone too far. Now the spooks are involved.\u201d\nUntil mobile-phone signals were digitized in the late 1990s, they could be intercepted with a handheld scanning device. In 2000 a new act was passed in the U.K. that made intercepting a conversation in the course of transmission illegal. Under Irish law, it is also a crime to intercept phone conversations without authorization.\nIn December 2002, The Sun newspaper published a front-page exclusive it called \u201cThe Foster Tapes,\u201d which were based on a transcript of calls between Peter Foster and his mother.\nThe Press Complaints Commission upheld Foster\u2019s complaint about the interception of the private calls, agreeing there was no public interest in the material and concluding that \u201ceavesdropping into private telephone conversations\u2014and then publishing transcripts of them\u2014is one of the most serious forms of physical intrusion into privacy.\u201d The Sun\u2019s editor at the time, David Yelland, was forced to print an apology.",

A group of volunteers at church, despite voicing enthusiasm for a certain project, continued to miss important deadlines. Did we indulge their lapses? Someone we\u2019d hired for a house project (and with whom we\u2019ve had multiple opportunities to share our faith) charged double his initial quote. Did we swallow our disagreement and pay?\nAmbiguity faced us at every turn.\nNot every moment for discernment was so consequential and grave. (We were also weighing the pros and cons of getting a puppy, which we delightfully did. Her name is Via.) Some decisions even represented generous, open-ended gifts of possibility: invitations to participate in interesting work projects, to join worthy volunteer causes, to help our children explore their unique passions, to invest in cherished friendships.\nIn these cases, it seemed we had more great opportunities than capacity, reminding us of the nature of discernment as Charles Spurgeon once described it: \u201cDiscernment is not knowing the difference between right and wrong; it is knowing the difference between right and almost right.\u201d\nTaste for What\u2019s Good\nIn her thoughtful new book, All That\u2019s Good: Recovering the Lost Art of Discernment, Hannah Anderson (a writer and frequent TGC contributor who lives in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia) explores the nature of discernment, arguing that it\u2019s a wisdom offered by God beyond listicles, self-help principles, and even alliterated sermon points. \u201cI won\u2019t offer you three easy steps to making good decisions,\u201d Anderson writes, \u201cor rigid boundaries to keep you on the straight and narrow. In fact, I\u2019ll do my best to complicate your decision-making process, to lead you away from our common disposition to fear-based thinking toward a place of hope and abundance.\u201d\nMoody Publisher (2018). 224 pp. $13.99.\n\u201cAnd God saw that it was good . . .\u201d\nLooking out over the world today, it seems a far cry from God\u2019s original declaration. Pain, conflict, and uncertainty dominate the headlines. Our daily lives are noisy and chaotic\u2014filled with too much information and too little wisdom. No wonder we often find it easier to retreat into safe spaces, hunker down in likeminded tribes, and just do our best to survive life.\nBut what if God wants you to do more than simply survive? What if he wants you to thrive in this world, and be part of its redemption? What if you could rediscover the beauty and goodness God established in the beginning?\nSome might entertain such a prospect nervously: Just tell me what to think, what to do! But most of us recognize that while we serve a God generous in giving discernment, he doesn\u2019t apportion it in the form of the frozen dinner, made for mindless eating. Instead, he endows us with his own \u201ctaste for what\u2019s good,\u201d with his own \u201crefined sensibility.\u201d Discernment, according to Anderson, is less about the menu\u2014and more about the palate.\nDiscernment is less about the menu\u2014and more about the palate.\nAs a younger Christian, though, I was a lot more preoccupied with the menu. What foods were allowed? What foods weren\u2019t? Truthfully, this moral hyper-vigilance wasn\u2019t only the stuff of my adolescent imagining. I was told, after a summer camp conversion at 16, that the only way to preserve my commitment to Christ was to maintain strict adherence to several rules: I must read my Bible every day for 10 minutes; pray every day for five; witness to one person each week; refuse drugs and alcohol; and wait to have sex until marriage.\nIt was a consoling idea at the time, that the rules could keep me safe. And while I have no doubt that the rules were well-intentioned, even that the rules were beneficial (who can argue with forming the habit of Bible reading at 16?), they didn\u2019t help me understand the larger points Anderson makes in her book. First, that the world isn\u2019t always easily divided into neat halves of right and wrong; second, that God wants to make us into discerning people more than he wants to give us the functional capacity of discernment.\nRules can prescribe the right behavior, but they can\u2019t form the right character. Discernment is a function of the latter.\nDiscernment in Leadership\nI suspect there\u2019s a devilish efficiency we\u2019re tempted by in any kind of leadership we exercise, whether in our homes, workplaces, or churches, and it tempts us to ignore the more wise, winding route of discernment. Rules are easy to make, easy to impose. I\u2019ve been in organizations and churches that take this posture. It\u2019s assumed that leaders are meant to make decisions, everyone else meant to (slavishly) follow them. I\u2019m not suggesting, of course, that pastors shouldn\u2019t exercise the right and responsibility for guiding their flocks, only that discernment is formed less by leadership of the \u201cbit and bridle\u201d kind (Psalm 32).\nAs Anderson reminds us, God\u2019s own instruction comes to us in the form of \u201ctest cases and story problems and examples of what it might look like to apply discernment, helping move from the theoretical to the practical.\u201d Just as there is an art to discernment, there\u2019s something artful about godly leadership as it knows when to instruct and guide, when to encourage and cheer, when to stay silent and pray.\nThere\u2019s simply no way for our children, colleagues, and congregants to form discernment by proxy. As we\u2019re reminded in the book of Hebrews, the goal of Christian discipleship is to make teachers of us all, capable of nourishing ourselves on \u201csolid food . . . for the mature, for those who have their powers of discernment trained by constant practice to distinguish good from evil\u201d (5:14).\nDiscernment isn\u2019t meant to be the reserve of the few, but the purview of the many.\nIn Search of Pearls\nIn kind, Anderson\u2019s book doesn\u2019t hand down imperatives from on high, doesn\u2019t merely seek the avoidance of evil, but rather cultivates a taste for the good. In form, it mirrors the search for the true, the honorable, the just, the pure, the lovely, the commendable. Like the women in Japanese coastal villages who dive deep into the ocean in search of pearls, there\u2019s a lot of treasure below the surface of these pages.\nIf you read All That\u2019s Good hoping for a quick answer to a complex problem, you aren\u2019t likely to find it. It won\u2019t tell you whether to lend money to your friends, what college degree your child should pursue, or what tack to take with unreliable volunteers and dishonest tradespeople. But if, with knife and basket, you go in search of a pearl, you won\u2019t come up empty-handed.\n\u201cNeither man nor woman can resist the loveliness of a pearl.\u201d\n\u200bJen Pollock Michel lives in Toronto with her family.

        "raw_content": "Former bishop implicated in cover up\nPosted By GRANT LAFLECHE, QMI AGENCY\nAs local Catholics puzzle Friday over the sudden resignation of the their bishop, his predecessor was implicated in the cover-up of sexual abuse by a priest in Pembroke.\nFormer St. Catharines bishop John O\u2019Mara was named by former Pembroke bishop Joseph Windle in a 1993 letter to the Vatican\u2019s ambassador in Ottawa. O\u2019Mara was named as part of a group of Ontario bishops who backed Windle\u2019s recommendation that the abuse of minors by a Pembroke priest be kept silent.\nThe priest in question, Father Bernard Prince, had been shipped off to Rome and became a friend of then Pope John Paul II. In his letter, Windle was deeply concerned that if the Vatican graced the priest with any attention or honours it would expose the abuse and create a scandal.\n\u201cThe consequences of such an action would be disastrous, not only for the Canadian Church but for the Holy See as well, given the climate which exists in Canada at this time,\u201d Windle wrote.\nHe noted that honouring Prince in anyway would \u201cprove extremely embarrassing to the Holy See and to the Diocese of Pembroke, not to mention the possibility of criminal charges being laid and a civil lawsuit ensuing.\u201d\nPrince was convicted in 2008 of sexually molesting 13 boys between 1964 and 1984, and was formally defrocked by Pope Benedict XVI last year.\nHe was sent to Rome and became a Vatican official in 1991 after church officials in Canada first heard from a victim of his crimes. In his letter, which became public Friday as part of a civil case against the Pembroke Diocese and Prince, Windle supported the move even in light of the seriousness of the allegations.\n\u201cI would not object to him being given another chance since it would remove him from the Canadian scene,\u201d Windle wrote.\nBy 1993, further allegations against Prince surfaced. Windle explained in his letter there were four or five known victims and at least one of them was asking pointed questions about how the church was handling the situation.\nStill, Windle believed the Church could keep the situation secret because the victims were unlikely to go to the police or the press.\n\u201cOne redeeming factor is that it would appear that the victims involved are of Polish descent and their respect for the priesthood and the Church has made them refrain from making these allegations public or laying criminal charges against a priest,\u201d he wrote.\n\u201cHad this happened elsewhere there would be every danger that charges would have been laid long ago with all the resultant scandal.\u201d\nIn order to prevent that scandal, Windle recommended that the Vatican not give Prince any honours as that might upset his victims and prompt them to come forward.\nHe wrote that all the bishops in Ontario agreed with his assessment of how to handle Prince and his crimes, naming four archbishops and two bishops, including John O\u2019Mara, who\nwas then the bishop of Thunder Bay.\nThese men were involved with Prince directly or indirectly, Windle wrote.\nO\u2019Mara did not return repeated messages from The Standard Friday. Windle\u2019s letter does not explain how or when O\u2019Mara was involved with Prince.\nO\u2019Mara left Thunder Bay to become the bishop of St. Catharines in 1994. He held that post until 2001, when he retired and was replaced in 2002 by Bishop James Wingle.\nWingle, formerly a priest in the Pembroke Diocese and the bishop of Yarmouth, N.S., resigned from his Niagara post Tuesday. In a letter to the St. Catharines Diocese, Wingle said he no longer had the stamina his duties required and he is taking a sabbatical of \u201cprayer and personal renewal.\u201d No details regarding his resignation were given, and staff at the diocese office were not told why he was leaving beyond the reasons in his letter.",

In Norway we have freedom of religion, which should also include the right not to be exposed to public calls to prayer.\u201d\nThe party's former leader Carl Hagen presented a proposal for a similar ban in 2000.\nBut in the past, the Ministry of Justice has concluded that such a ban would be contrary to Article 9 of the European Convention on Human Rights, the right to freedom of thought, conscience and religion.\nThe party\u2019s immigration policy spokesman, Jon Helgheim told the V\u00e5rt Land newspaper that he was not concerned with whether the law was permissible under the Convention.\n\u201cI don\u2019t give a toss what human rights provisions say in this case,\u201d he said. \u201cWhat I care about is that people get peace and quiet in their neighbourhoods, and that means not being disturbed by the call to prayer.

        "raw_content": "COMMENTARY: Not a citizen? Not a person\nAl Kauffman is a law professor at St. Mary\u2019s University School of Law. He was a civil rights lawyer for 25 years and teaches constitutional law, education law and procedure. He writes for The Monitor\u2019s Board ofContributors.\nBY AL KAUFFMANS\nI see a clear method to the apparent madness of Texas redistricting. I fear that Texas is moving toward redistricting based on voter population only \u2014 disadvantaging minorities \u2014 rather than respecting and acknowledging all people in the state.\nWe need to review the United States Constitution, U.S. Supreme Court cases, federal legislation, Texas legislative initiatives and the national developments on redistricting to see the method in the madness.\nThe U.S. Constitution in 1789 allocated seats in the House of Representatives to states based on the total population of each state. However, the number included only three-fifths of the number of slaves \u2014 an original sin embedded in the Constitution. After the Civil War, the 14th Amendment to the Constitution required that representatives be apportioned among the \u201cseveral states according to their respective numbers, counting the whole number of persons in each state.\u201d In the 1960s the Supreme Court required that redistricting be based on total population in each district. The court required congressional districts to contain virtually no deviation among the total populations. Meanwhile, Congress passed the Voting Rights Act (VRA) in 1965, applied the VRA to Texas in 1975 and continued the Act in 1982 and again in 2006. The Supreme Court held the VRA constitutional in 1966, 1973, 1980 and 1999. It was the most effective tool to prevent states and localities from diluting minorities\u2019 votes.\nUnfortunately, all these protections are under attack by those who wish to dilute the vote of minority people, especially Latinos, in the election of Congress, as well as state senators, state representatives and local officials.\nIf one looks at the Supreme Court cases, federal administration proposals to change the census, as well as state initiatives, one might think that there is just a set of independent movements away from equal population redistricting toward districting based only on citizenship. Unfortunately, whether by coordination among the branches of government, or merely exploitation of favorable developments, there is a clear movement toward basing redistricting on the number of voters or the number of citizens in each district rather than the number of human beings in each district.\nIn 2008, a Texas water district sued the U.S. to declare the VRA unconstitutional. Based on some administrative regulations, the Supreme Court in 2009 upheld the VRA at that time. However, Chief Justice John Roberts, in effect, invited further litigation against the VRA by outlining arguments that might hold it unconstitutional. Justice Clarence Thomas went even further and argued that the Act was unconstitutional.\nOpponents of minority voting rights were quick to react. Alabama filed a case which resulted in the 2013 Supreme Court gutting of the VRA. By a 5-4 vote (with the five Republican-appointed justices voting to strike the Act and the four Democratic-appointed justices voting to uphold it), the Supreme Court held that the preclearance provisions of the VRA, the most powerful and useful part of the act, was unconstitutional because it was based on old data and did not sufficiently respect the covered states. The Supreme Court held the VRA unconstitutional even though Congressional members, based on a depressingly extensive record of voting abuses, had just overwhelmingly voted to continue the act in 2006. Based on a blatant rejection of the conservative argument that the court should respect the will of the people expressed through elected representatives, the court regarded this vote of Congress as just politics.\nThe loss of the VRA preclearance provisions is particularly damaging in the context of changing the methods of counting persons for redistricting. Under the VRA, states like Texas must show that voting changes do not have a discriminatory effect and that the changes were not intended to be discriminatory. There is simply no way that Texas could meet its obligations under the VRA to show that a redistricting plan, based on counts of citizens only, did not have this discriminatory intent to or effect of discrimination against minority communities. Due to the Supreme Court\u2019s 2013 decision, that VRA protection is gone.\nSeveral East Texans filed a case seeking to force the Texas Legislature to redistrict based on either number of voters or citizenship, not on total population. This led to a 2016 U.S. Supreme Court case upholding the right of Texas to redistrict based on total population. Unfortunately, the case did not decide a very important issue \u2014 whether states and localities must redistrict based on total population. Justices Thomas and Samuel Alito wrote separate opinions, doubting total population was the appropriate basis for redistricting. More specifically, Thomas and Alito, in effect, invited a state or locality to redistrict based on the voters in the district rather than the total population in the district so that the Supreme Court could then rule whether this method of redistricting was constitutional. Texas, the defendant in the litigation, should have simply asked the Supreme Court to approve their redistricting plans. Instead, Texas asked the Supreme Court to approve the theory of redistricting based on voter-eligible population rather than total population, a request the Supreme Court denied.\nSeveral states were quick to see the opening to further dilute minority voting rights. Alabama has sued the U.S. government arguing that the allocation of congressional seats among states should not be based on total population but only on citizen population. The Missouri Legislature has passed a proposed Constitutional amendment to require redistricting be based on citizen population, not on total population. Nebraska is considering a bill to require future redistricting be based on citizen population. I predict there will be proposals in the 2019 Texas Legislature to require future redistricting to be based on citizen population. And surely there will be proposals in the 2021 legislature to adopt statewide plans for Senate, House and State Board of Education districts based on citizen population rather than total population.\nPresident Donald Trump\u2019s administration has proposed adding a question on the census to determine the citizenship status of every person counted in the census. This proposal is an anti-immigrant provision designed to identify persons who are noncitizens for future deportation. However, this proposal is also designed to give information to states and localities to redistrict based on citizenship status rather than on total population. Presently, the census provides information for only a small sample of the total population on the citizenship question. Knowing the citizenship status of every person in the U.S. would allow redistricting by excluding all noncitizens.\nA citizenship question on the census is sure to depress the counts of persons in minority neighborhoods where fear of immigration consequences will outweigh efforts to get a full count of people. This will move federal and state funding away from neighborhoods that most need the funds as well as the cities and states where they reside. There will be schools and highways to build and teachers, police and firefighters to pay regardless of the undercount of humans by the census.\nSo why does this matter? Redistricting based on citizenship status treats noncitizens as non-persons. A proposal to base redistricting on actual voters treats children, permanent residents, the physically disabled and the undocumented as non-entities, not deserving representation on our public bodies. Such proposals would weigh redistricting heavily toward white middle-class communities and away from minority and young communities. In Texas in particular, urban areas and the Texas border area would suffer significant losses of Senate, House and State Board of Education seats. We Texans know that there is a strong relationship between these populations and the partisan divide in our state.\nOne political party controls the Texas Legislature, Texas executive branch, Texas Supreme Court, the U.S. administration and soon the Supreme Court. There will clearly be efforts, sometimes coordinated, to continue one party control of all parts of the government. That is what is happening here. The anti-voting rights decisions and invitations to further litigation by Republican-appointed justices, litigation brought by Republicans in Texas, the Republican proposal to add citizenship questions to every census form, could be a coincidence. We should be skeptical that these developments are coincidences and not carefully orchestrated efforts to change voting results and our government itself.\nIf the U.S. Supreme Court does decide that states should redistrict based on either actual voters, citizen voting age population or citizenship there will be an absolute flood of litigation against every redistricting plan in the U.S., from small school boards to cities and counties to states. Such a radical change in the structure of our voting would cause incredible disruptions in state legislatures, local governments, funding and our democracy itself. We must watch these developments closely and oppose them when they are proposed.\nAl Kauffman is a professor of law at St. Mary\u2019s University School of Law.

But what a lot of people don\u2019t realize is that you make your money by obtaining patents and ensuring that everything is in your name before going public with your invention. Because if you don\u2019t, you might end up like Catherine Hettinger, who invented the fidget spinner. At one point, she couldn\u2019t afford the $400 to renew her patent, and now that the invention has blown up to widespread proportions, she isn\u2019t making a dime. But, there are people who made sure that their patent was up to date, like the inventor of the Billy Bob teeth. While it\u2019s hard to believe this invention made someone rich, you\u2019d be surprised what the public is into. The Pet Rock was probably one of the most ridiculous inventions to ever go big, but its inventor is laughing all the way to the bank! The Singing Fish is probably one of the ultimate white elephant gifts for a group setting, and because it is so weird and unique, it got its creator extremely rich.\nIf you haven\u2019t caught on yet, we\u2019re going to be talking about unlikely inventions that got people very rich.

        "raw_content": "SU splits doubleheader against visiting Millersville University on Friday\nThe Shippensburg University softball team received solid performances from the circle from Emily Estep and Makenzie Lynn on Friday afternoon in a doubleheader split with Millersville University from Robb Field. The Raiders lost 3-2 in the opener before winning 3-1 in the nightcap.\nWith one out in the sixth inning of the Raiders\u2019 Game 2 triumph, shortstop Taylor Weisman followed up a triple from sophomore left fielder Hilary Lyons with an eventual game-winning two-run home run over the left field fence.\nThe blast gave Lynn her fourth victory of the season, as the right-hander gave up four hits and no earned runs in a five-strikeout complete game effort. The five strikeouts are tied for the most she has thrown in a game this season.\nEstep, meanwhile, had a no-hitter entering the seventh inning of Game 1 before giving up four hits and two earned runs in the final frame. She recorded 12 strikeouts, her most since fanning 13 at Catawba on Feb. 25.\nWeisman went 3-for-6 on the day with a home run, a double, two runs and two RBIs. Center fielder Tyler Thompson went 2-for-3 in Game 1 and flashed her speed along the base paths in the fifth inning with an RBI-triple down the right field line before scoring on a throwing error from the right fielder.\nIn Game 1 MU generated the first run of the game in the top of the third inning after capitalizing on a walk and two SU fielding errors.\nThe Marauders threatened to add more two innings later, but Estep made her way out of a bases-loaded jam. The right-hander walked the second batter of the inning, the next batter reached on an SU fielding error and Estep hit the next batter to load the bases with one out. That would be as close as Millersville would get to scoring, however, as Estep struck out the next two batters swinging to end the scare.\nIn the bottom of the fifth, right fielder Kiersten Darhower reached first on an MU throwing error, advanced to second on a wild pitch and made her way to third on an Estep groundout. That set the stage for Thompson, who ripped the first pitch she saw down the right field line to plate Darhower and eventually herself for a 2-1 SU lead.\nEstep gave up her first hit of the game with the first pitch she threw in the top of the seventh inning, as MU\u2019s Taylor Odell-Smith hit a solo home run to left center field. Estep gave up three more singles in the inning as the Marauders added one more run for a 3-2 victory.\nIn Game 2, the Raiders jumped out to a 1-0 lead in the bottom of the first inning when Weisman doubled to center field with two outs before first baseman Maddie Justice drove her home with an RBI-double to left field.\nThe Marauders used a hit, an SU throwing error and a wild pitch in the fourth inning to knot the game at 1. However, with the bases loaded and one out, Lynn forced a pop-up and a fly out to end the MU rally and escape the jam.\nThe Raiders mustered one hit in the bottom of both the fourth and fifth inning before finally breaking through to score in the sixth. With the second pitch of her leadoff at-bat, Lyons stroked the ball to right field and cruised into third base with a stand-up triple. After an SU groundout, Weisman sent a 1-1 pitch out of the park for a 3-2 lead.\nClick here for game photos",

        "raw_content": "1914 - Centennial - 1918\nThe World Remembers is about remembrance, education and international understanding.\nThe 1914-1918 war was fought on a scale never before imagined and it changed the course of history. Twenty-two million military personnel were wounded and more than nine million were killed in fighting that lasted more than four years. It is estimated that seven million civilians died. The conflict involved more than forty nations from every continent. Empires were destroyed and borders were redrawn in much of Europe and the Middle East, while the 1919 peace settlement led to consequences that many nations still live with today.\nThe \u2018First World War\u2019 changed attitudes about the conduct of war itself and accelerated both democratic and revolutionary upheavals. Today, live artillery shells still surface in battlefields in Belgium and France, and they still kill. It seems that the war is not yet finished. What did we learn and how shall we remember the war after 100 years?\nWho were the millions of men who fought and died? Who were the women who were killed when serving as nurses or in the merchant navies? For ninety-nine years they have been collectively acknowledged but in the centenary years The World Remembers chooses to acknowledge them individually, name-by-name and nation-by-nation. Hundreds of millions of families lost relatives in the 1914-1918 war and today each can participate in this unique commemoration.\nOur principles are equality, universality and accessibility: equality, since after one hundred years there is equality in death; universality, since by presenting this project in the languages of all participating nations, we can reach the millions of families of these men and women regardless of where they live or the language they speak; accessibility, since the power of software and the internet allows us to display the name of each man or woman, and for the names to be seen wherever there is an internet connection or wherever there is a school or museum projecting the names. We wish no one to be excluded from memory.\nThe WWI centenary years provide the only opportunity to undertake such a large and inclusive project that not only honours the past but also looks to the future with hope and understanding.\nThe World Remembers will display the names of those who lost their lives in names-display installations in participating nations. They will be seen in a network of schools or other organisations, on our website, and on phones and Tablets and in public displays in some countries. Each name will be programmed to appear at a precise minute, allowing anyone anywhere in the world to find the exact moment when the name of a lost relative will appear. In 2014, we will display only the names of those killed in 1914, commencing October 15th and concluding November 11th. In 2015, we will display the names of those killed in 1915. And so on. At sunrise November 11th 2018, the last of the millions of name will appear time zone by time zone around the world.\nNot all WWI countries have chosen to participate and therefore their names have not been made available to us. We encourage those countries to join this project in subsequent years. Also, one hundred years after, the databases of names from many nations are not yet complete. See the country-specific pages on this site for details of the project and the timings of the displays each year.\nJust as the WWI artillery shells still surface in the battlefields, so too is the history of WWI still being written. But sadly, memories of the war no longer surface in minds since those who lived it have all left us now. But the names of the dead remain, and unlike the battlefields and written histories, the names are unchanging and non-debatable. It is time to witness and remember them all, one by one.\nWe encourage cities, towns, schools, museums, libraries, community and historical groups and veterans groups to display the names with the software we have built specifically for the project. We invite you to participate either by witnessing the names or by promoting an organization that can join us in displaying the names.\nMemory is part of what makes us human. Please join us.",

        "raw_content": "Here\u2019s why it's going to be so unbearably hot this weekend\nMost of the country will be gripped by dangerously high temperatures this weekend. According to the National Weather Service, some places will see temperatures as much as 10 to 15 degrees Fahrenheit above average for this time of year.\nThe reason that the temperatures are expected to be so much higher than normal is because of a meteorological event called a \"heat dome.\" That's when a dome of high pressure in the upper atmosphere traps warm air beneath it. Under the dome, the air sinks towards the ground, becomes more compressed, and heats up even more \u2014 often to dangerous levels, as are expected this weekend.\nThe heat dome \u2014 which is expected to be especially large this time\u2014 will envelop the Midwest first, then move eastwards over the weekend. This is why eastern Missouri and southern Illinois are expected to see a high of 100 degrees on Friday. New York is expected to see a high of 97 degrees Fahrenheit on Saturday, according to Weather.com.\nThis heat dome formed largely because of the jet stream, reports LiveScience. This time of year, the jet stream is further north, passing roughly over the border between the US and extending into Canada. It effectively prevents cooler air from pushing southward into the country.\nBut that's not all. Not only is the heat expected be unbearable in parts of the country, but the humidity is going to make it \"feel\" worse \u2014 in other words, the heat index (which factors in humidity and raw temperature to give a better idea of how hot it will make you feel) will increase. For example, the heat index in eastern Missouri is forecasted to be between 105 - 112 this weekend.\nThe heat dome is a high-pressure mass, and in high pressure systems in the northern hemisphere, the air flows clockwise around its center. As the heat dome moves eastwards, it will suck up humid air behind it from the Gulf of Mexico.\nIn other parts of the country, such as the Midwest, the heat dome is going to be compounded by another weather phenomenon known as \"corn sweat,\" reports NBC news. This is when evapotranspiration occurs, a phenomenon where water is released from crop plant leaves \u2014 such as corn \u2014 into the atmosphere, making it extra-muggy.\nWhile eastern cities, like New York, will likely be spared the effects of corn sweat, the city is still likely to be hotter than the surrounding areas because of the \"urban heat island effect.\" In these urban heat islands, heat is absorbed by concrete and asphalt and is trapped between tall buildings. The heat is also enhanced by vehicles, factories, air conditioners, and pollution. As a result, cities are generally 1.8 - 5.4 degrees Fahrenheit warmer than their surroundings, according to the US Environmental Protection Agency.",

Votes will be taken until midnight Eastern Time on Tuesday, January 7th, at which time the voting will close. The voting mechanism will attempt to restrict votes to one per person. The order of the choices is set at random, and is different each time the form is presented. THE WINNER OF THE ONLINE VOTE IS NOT NECESSARILY THE MORMON OF THE YEAR!!!\nReasoning Together \u2013 Prophets\nHere\u2019s the main point: I don\u2019t think either our history or our theology supports traditional and currently widespread \u2013 though often unarticulated \u2013 notions of what a prophet is.[1]\nUpdate: Nominations for 2013 Mormon of the Year\nFor the past two weeks readers have made nominations and seconded nominations for the 2013 Mormon of the Year designation. So that the status of nominations and seconds are clear, I\u2019ve compiled the list below of those who have been nominated and seconded (and who will therefore appear on the popular vote ballot), those who have been nominated, but not seconded. Please see the original post for rules and qualifications.\nLeaders are Fallible (No, Really)\nThe changes at the Gospel Topics section of LDS.org (which I wrote about two weeks ago) and especially the Church\u2019s new Race and the Priesthood article have rekindled questions about the fallibility of Church leaders. After all, the Church\u2019s current position completely disavows the past practice of denying the priesthood to blacks and all but explicitly states that the practice was an error from the start. Chalk it up with Adam-God and blood atonement and poor Brother Brigham seems to be batting 0.000 at theological innovation. It\u2019s difficult to reconcile such grave errors with the statement, canonized in Official Declaration 1, that \u201cThe Lord will never permit me or any other man who stands as President of this Church to lead you astray.\u201d It\u2019s possible that President Woodruff had in mind an even more grave contravention of God\u2019s plan when he spoke and so is still correct, baseless priesthood ban notwithstanding. But if institutionalized racism is not \u201castray\u201d, then what is? The simpler solution is that he was mistaken. I don\u2019t think that suggestion should come as a mighty shock. The Book of Mormon (also canon, after all) specifically talks about its own mistakes in, eg, the title page (\u201cif there are faults they are the\u2026\nMy Beef with Goals\nAccording to the de facto Mormon liturgical calendar, it is the time of year to talk about goal-setting. Most Mormon discussions of goals make me want to poke myself in the eyeball with a fork\u2013a reaction I initially did not understand, since I set goals for myself all of the time. But after thinking about it for a while, I figured out a few reasons why the standard Mormon discourse on goals and goal-setting aggravates me so much.\nLiterary Joseph Fielding Smith #02: A Stranger Star O\u2019er Bethlehem\nThe second lesson in the Joseph Fielding Smith manual, used in Priesthood and Relief Society lessons in the coming year, discusses the life of Jesus Christ and his role in the plan of salvation; quite a lot to cover in a single lesson. In the texts included, Smith ranges from Christ\u2019s birth as the only begotten son of God, to his role establishing a pattern for us to follow, to how we are His sons and daughters through the atonement and through our obedience to His teachings. Fortunately, Mormon poetry, like our teachings, emphasize the role of Christ, making it relatively easy to find poetry that covers similar territory, like the following text, once a hymn included in LDS songbooks.\nLiterary OTGD #02: Shadows and Whisperings\nby Kent Larsen \u2022 December 29, 2013 \u2022 Comments Off on Literary OTGD #02: Shadows and Whisperings\nMormon beliefs about the pre-existence are an important part of our understanding of our purpose in this life and the meaning of the life to come. The beliefs covered in the second lesson in the Old Testament Gospel Doctrine manual, \u201cfore-ordination\u201d and the \u201cwar in heaven,\u201d are no exception. But, it is also worth remembering that what happened in the pre-existence is veiled from our memories. The details most relevant to individuals are something we don\u2019t know. Our own specific missions aren\u2019t clear. We are left with \u201cshadows and whisperings.\u201d\nFaulconer, Sorenson, Welch, and Others on Scripture Study and Teaching\nby Ben S. \u2022 December 28, 2013 \u2022 5 Comments\nSome borrowed thoughts I\u2019ve found provoking recently.\nThe January 2014 Friend has an Old Testament reading chart.\nBYU-Idaho: the next ten years (II)\nTo keep the rest of this post in context, let me repeat that I think Rexburg is a fantastic place, that BYU-Idaho has gotten the most important things right in its transformation from a junior college into a four-year university, and that its dress code is not a terribly important issue. The university\u2019s path forward to becoming the kind of university it hopes to be, although not simple, is clear enough. Another tricky question for the future of the university is how to strike the right balance between local heritage versus consistency with the system flagship in Provo: How much BYU, and how much Idaho?\nPartaking of the Fruit of the Tree\nby Sarah Familia \u2022 December 23, 2013 \u2022 9 Comments\nOne of my favorite parts of Christmas is sitting in the darkened living room, gazing at the lighted tree. There is something magical and transfixing about the warm, gentle light, the fragrance of pine, and the palpable presence of nature that fills my home with its incongruous beauty. I have many memories of reading Scripture by the light of the Christmas tree. Usually we read from Luke, with Matthew\u2019s bit about the Wise Men added in; sometimes we expand into Isaiah, either spoken or set to Handel. This year, though, when I stole a moment of stillness out of the hectic holiday rush to sit beside the tree, the words that came to my mind were Nephi\u2019s: \u201cI looked and beheld a tree . . . and the bbeauty thereof was far beyond, yea, exceeding of all beauty; and the cwhiteness thereof did exceed the whiteness of the driven snow.\u201d It had never struck me before how much meaning the Book of Mormon adds to our celebration of the Christmas tree. Scripture is rife with references to the Tree of Life, and the notion of everlasting life certainly accords well with what I was taught as a child: that the\u2026\n2014 Summer Seminar on Mormon Culture: The History of the Mormon Family\nby Ben Huff \u2022 December 23, 2013 \u2022 1 Comment\nIn the summer of 2014, the Neal A Maxwell Institute at Brigham Young University, with support from the Mormon Scholars Foundation and the Jack and Mary Lois Wheatley Institution, will sponsor a summer seminar for graduate students and junior faculty on \u201cThe History of the Mormon Family.\u201d The seminar will be held on the BYU campus in Provo, Utah, from June 15 to July 26. Admitted participants will receive a stipend of $3000 with an accommodations subsidy if needed. The seminar continues the series of seminars on Mormon culture begun in the summer of 1997. In 2014, the seminar will be conducted by Richard and Claudia Bushman. The question we will address is: how did the Church move in the course of a century from the most unconventional marriage system in the nation to a model of family stability? Mormons were criticized in the nineteenth century for their assault on family values. By the mid-twentieth century, they were lauded for the strength of their families. What resources could Mormons draw on to accomplish this transformation? Despite the bad reputation of plural marriage, what principles of family life were established in the nineteenth century that could ultimately produce the strong families\u2026\nThis Is War Like You Ain\u2019t Seen\nby Nathaniel Givens \u2022 December 23, 2013 \u2022 1 Comment\nI\u2019m spending time moving my family into our new home and getting ready for Christmas, so here\u2019s a song from Dustin Kensrue\u2019s Christmas album This Good Night Is Still Everywhere. It\u2019s not the usual sound, but that\u2019s part of why I like it so much. (And now I\u2019m going to get some Mannheim Steamroller going\u2026)\nLiterary Joseph Fielding Smith #01: O My Mother\nThe new Joseph Fielding Smith manual for the Relief Society/Priesthood lessons presents a minor logistical problem\u2014it has 26 lessons, which may mean teachers will have to drop two of the lessons (since two lessons each month are taught from the manual). Because of this I will post poems for the next few weeks so that teachers can choose from at least 4 of the lessons each week. The first lesson focuses on God, his attributes and nature, and our relationship with him. But while we have poems and hymns that discuss this, I though the following poem would be a different way of introducing and thinking about this subject.\nLiterary OTGD #01: Metamorphosis\nby Kent Larsen \u2022 December 22, 2013 \u2022 Comments Off on Literary OTGD #01: Metamorphosis\nFor the coming year, I\u2019ve decided to post poetry for use in Sunday School and Priesthood/Relief Society classes two weeks ahead of when they would normally be used, instead of a week ahead as I\u2019ve done in previous years. I\u2019m doing this to allow teachers a bit more time to prepare and integrate the poetry into their lesson plans (if they wish to use the poetry), and because, in the case of the Priesthood/Relief Society manual, there are more lessons than can be covered in a year. Working two weeks ahead will give the teacher time to decide which lessons to drop, and still (I hope) have the poetry available on time.\nSame-Sex Marriage Bans and Tax\nThe District of Utah has had a busy week. As I\u2019m sure you heard (and if you haven\u2019t, you ought to read Kaimi\u2019s post first), Utah\u2019s ban on same-sex marriage has been struck down as unconstitutional. A week ago, in the wake of the decision that didn\u2019t actually legalize polygamy, I looked at the potential tax consequences of that decision and, fairly anti-climatically, determined that there were none. Plenty of electrons will be spilled going over this decision but, again, I suspect that the tax consequences will be underexplored.\nWe were headed to the car. As we left the building, my wife slid her arm in mine, in part because the sidewalk was still slick after the snowstorm earlier in the week. And when we reached the curb and waited for the light to cross the street, my personal space was invaded.\nGay Polygamy in Utah!\nBy now you\u2019ve heard the news. A federal judge in Utah just ruled that the state\u2019s ban on same-sex marriage was unconstitutional. This follow on last week\u2019s ruling, from a different judge, that portions of Utah\u2019s polygamy statute were also unconstitutional. What does it mean? Obviously, it means the advent of gay polygamy!! It won\u2019t stop until everyone is married to everyone else, in one giant gay-polygamous-mega-wedding. Let the festivities begin! Okay, maybe not. Let\u2019s go through the rulings, piece by piece, to see what they say, and what their effects may be.\nThe Old Testament and Why Bible Translations Differ: My Religious Educator Article\nBYU\u2019s Religious Studies Center publishes The Religious Educator, a little-known LDS journal that deserves wider recognition.\nGospel Topics at LDS.org, A Change of Direction?\nI told my Gospel Doctrine class yesterday afternoon that since we had run out of lesson manual for the year we were going to go rogue. Then I proceeded to give the first lesson I\u2019ve ever given (I think) in which I exclusively used officially-approved Church materials[1]. I could pick anything I wanted to teach about, and I choose to cite three videos and four articles from the Gospel Topics section of LDS.org. And yet I did feel like there was something quietly revolutionary about the material we covered in the lesson. The article that has riveted the Bloggernaccle and even the world beyond this week is the article Race and the Priesthood [2], and that\u2019s where I got started. I\u2019d heard vague mentions about efforts on the part of the Church to revise the curriculum and/or to start addressing difficult issues head on. I even think I\u2019d heard something about the article on the First Vision accounts, but I sort of figured that if there was a major policy shift I\u2019d hear about it in General Conference or some other official outlet. I hadn\u2019t heard anything definitive, but I went to the Gospel Topics section of lds.org (where Race and the Priesthood is\u2026\nGod, the Necessity of Scholars, and the Old Testament: A Long Post and a Short Announcement.\nAmong laypeople, one sometimes finds a distrust of scholarship as it applies to the Bible, particularly if that scholarship runs against a traditional interpretation, or if tells you an obvious face-value reading you favor doesn\u2019t really mean what you think it does. LDS have competing traditions towards serious scripture study. On the one hand, we are not a Bible-based (or even Book of Mormon-based) religion, where doctrine comes primarily through exegesis and interpretation. No sir, we\u2019ve got prophets! We make an end run around all that stuff. We don\u2019t believe you must attend college and be trained for the ministry to preach the orthodox religion! If you\u2019ve read the Ensign and served a mission, or you grew up in Utah, most weeks you don\u2019t need to bother preparing anything at all to participate fully in our Sunday lessons. A great pity, indeed. So there can certainly be an anti-intellectual strain, the expression of which varies greatly by ward and geography. In tension with that, LDS have \u201cthe glory of God is intelligence\u201d, \u201cstudy out of the best books\u201d \u201cobtain a knowledge of history, and of countries, and of kingdoms, and laws of God and man.\u201d \u201cThy mind, O Man\u2026 must stretch\u2026\nDeadline \u2013 New Summer Seminar in Mormon Theology\nby Adam Miller \u2022 December 14, 2013 \u2022 Comments Off on Deadline \u2013 New Summer Seminar in Mormon Theology\nJust a reminder that the deadline for applications for the First Annual Summer Seminar in Mormon Theology, co-spsonsored by The Mormon Theology Seminar and the Neal A. Maxwell Institute for Religious Scholarship, is December 15, 2013.\nDecriminalizing Polygamy (and, of Course, Tax)\nOn Friday, December 13, the Judge Waddoups, a district court judge in the District of Utah, held that Utah\u2019s criminalization of polygamy was unconstitutional. Partly, anyway.\nMore on that in a minute. I suspect that this opinion will reverberate throughout the blogosphere and the mainstream media, with the reporting displaying various levels of accuracy. The question I suspect won\u2019t get much play, though, is, what are the tax consequences of this decision?\nSince Time named its Person of the Year this past week, and named a religious figure at that, it must be time to select the Mormon of the Year.\nThe Old Testament, Scripture, Apostles, the Priesthood Ban, and Theological Diversity: Calibrating Our Expectations\n(I\u2019m probably cramming too much into this mishmash of a post, but frustration over certain conversations has collided with academic stress and lack of time to refine it. I may regret it, so consider this a preview, a beta.) The expectations we bring to reading scripture can radically affect our reading, our faith, and our communities. One frequent assumption, traditional in many religions, is that revelation (and scripture, as a subset of revelation) must be monolithic, unified, in harmony, univocal, internally consistent. This is not the case, and it is not an accident. Let\u2019s back up, though, particularly as we get in to the Old Testament, and ask, what are our expectations of scripture? Are they properly calibrated? I think we tend to read the scriptures for three reasons, devotional (performing piety and seeking communion with God), doctrinal (stripping away the \u201cirrelevant cultural dross\u201d to extract \u201cTrue Doctrine\u201d), and moralistic (expecting to find simple models of modern LDS principles and standards). Certainly, those are worthwhile things to do, though the last two are problematic in their assumptions. The Old Testament wasn\u2019t written for those reasons. (Heck, it wasn\u2019t really \u201cwritten\u201d at all, but no time to get in to that.) The last two goals\u2026\nEvangelicals Need Inoculation Too\nI hope you have seen the recent public announcement of the initiative to use the Gospel Topics section of LDS.org to essentially do what we have been calling \u201cinoculation\u201d for the last ten years (see here for a list of links to Bloggernacle posts on the topic). The three short video interviews of General Authorities listed at the top of the Gospel Topics page (identified with titles like \u201cHow will Gospel Topics be enhanced?\u201d rather than identified as GA interviews) give additional details about the initiative. While there is a lot of ground to cover, this is a very promising development. We should nominate whoever championed this initiative for Mormon of the Year.\nThe Wrongness of Being Right\nby Rachel Whipple \u2022 December 11, 2013 \u2022 27 Comments\nIt seems to me that any time you turn something into a point of conflict, you risk being in the wrong. It becomes more important to be right than it is to understand your fellow brother, to exercise compassion, to be humble and teachable.\nZion, Mortal Loneliness, and The Hall of Records\nIn my imagination there is a hall of records in the future Celestial Zion where anyone can review the mortal life of any other person as seen from their perspective. It is an imposing structure in its own right, one part great library and one part museum, but it lies in the shadow of grander and more glorious edifices. The business of Zion will be eternal progression, and so the hall of records receives fewer visitors than the other communal spaces of learning. It is vast and solitary place. A person could enter and spend an entire day walking between the towering shelves on the buildings many levels. Outside the sun would roll across the sky, and inside that person would encounter only a couple of other souls, and those at a distance, as each quietly pursued answers to their own questions. The shelves are loaded with the weight of a hundred billion human lives. The impressions, the thoughts, the fears, and the hopes. All that is learned and all that should have been learned. The fading echoes of all the confusion and glory and darkness of humankind\u2019s brief but pivotal period of mortal existence reverberate quietly within that building.\u2026\nResponding as Mandela\nby James Olsen \u2022 December 8, 2013 \u2022 3 Comments\nDriving [1] to work Friday morning the news reports were of course all about Nelson Mandela who had passed away the night before.

        "raw_content": "New work by Brett De Palma\nClosing Reception: March 5th, 6-9 pm\nA native of Nashville and graduate of Vanderbilt University's Peabody College, Brett De Palma has been challenging and reinventing the idea of artistic freedom for over thirty years. De Palma moved to New York City's Greenwich Village in the early 1980's, washing dishes for almost a year until Red Grooms offered him a job painting his sculpture and he obtained a gallery assistant position at Sperone Westwater Fischer. He became a punk new-waver while going to CBGB after hours, all the while painting abstract anatomy on rolls of bookbinding material from the basement of his building. De Palma's big break came after meeting new-wave impresario and artist-turned-curator, Diego Cortez. Cortez subsequently included De Palma in the New York New-Wave show of 1981 along with acclaimed artists Keith Haring and Jean-Michel Basquiat.\nAlthough De Palma has continued to create art since his heyday in the 1980's, De Palma humorously states, \"I have only recently emerged from the Cave of Fire, Water, Ice, Smoke, and Mirrors through the Academy of Education to the Institutionalized Greed of Leveraged Mergers and the Golden Age of Class Consolidation and Private Property into the Light of Hometown Celebrity Sunshine!\"\nThis sort of sharp yet playful humor is characteristic of De Palma's personality and his approach to creating art. De Palma describes his work as a reflection of the world, filtered through himself, and as such, his art has no rules as pertains to ways of proceeding. As an artist, his goal is to open possibilities rather than to restrict freedoms, not to \"do this instead of that.\" With each composition, he aims to discover and express the depth of character and thought from which springs a more authentic view of life. Through a synthesis of contradictory elements-hard edges and soft forms, sensuality and roughness, humor and darkness-De Palma's art represents real life in all its quirkiness.\nBrett De Palma's extensive exhibition experience includes one-person exhibitions at the Tony Shafrazi Gallery, NY; Emilio Mazzoli, Italy; and the Arnold Hertsand Gallery, NYC. His art has been reviewed in the New York Times, the New Yorker, the Village Voice, Dialogue Magazine, Roll Magazine, the Tennessean, the Nashville Business Journal, and the Rockland Review. His works reside in many prominent public collections including the Whitney Museum of American Art, the Smithsonian Institute in Washington D.C., the U.S. State Department, Disney World, the Eli Broad Family Foundation, and the Tennessee State Museum. De Palma has been an adjunct professor at the School Visual Arts in New York since 1988.\nTo view artwork dimensions and medium, visit Brett De Palma's artist page.\nNewer PostStealing Stories\nOlder PostMary Long",

        "title": "How to master small talk at holiday parties",
        "raw_content": "7 foolproof tips to help you survive any holiday party\nHere are seven tips to help you feel less uncomfortable, and maybe even make a new connection.\nBy Bela Gandhi\nThe holidays are in full swing \u2014 and along with the festive season comes a slew of cocktail parties, work gatherings and family events. For those of us who aren't the \"life of the party\" types, we often dread going to events where we have to make small talk. Here are seven tips to feeling less uncomfortable, and maybe even making a new connection.\nHow to get the most out of your office holiday party\n1. Stop telling yourself \"I'm awkward.\"\nMoods are contagious. So when you're heading to any kind of party, make sure that you're feeling positive. If you're allowing negative thoughts like, \"I'm terrible at small talk,\" \u2014 you might be creating a self-fulfilling prophecy.\nInstead, tell yourself, \"I've got this and it's JUST a conversation.\" You've got a full plan of action, and you're ready to take the small-talk world by storm!\n2. Look approachable.\nWe all think we look approachable, but we truly have NO idea what our faces look like and people don't tell us! Do people say you look intimidating? Do people stop you on the street and ask you for directions? You may wear a serious facial expression that looks intense, scary or angry. People want to talk to positive, friendly and happy looking people. So get in the mood! Think happy thoughts, and look up and smile.\nIf you're wondering about what you look like while talking, record yourself on your cell phone answering the question, \"What am I doing this weekend?\" Then watch the video (don't be shocked if you don't love it). Do it again while smiling and watch the difference.\n3. Seek out the \"life of the party\" person.\nA great way to ease yourself into a party is to find the person in the center of the circle, regaling bystanders with stories. If you're an introvert, or a slow-to-warm-up extrovert, slipping into a chat with the friendly extrovert takes the pressure off. You can focus on doing what you do best, which is listening and asking good follow-up questions.\nWhat not to do at your office holiday party\n4. Be the conversational leader.\nIf you're in a situation where you're alone at a gathering (or can't find a \"life of the party\" type around), be the conversational leader! Don't be a wallflower waiting for someone to approach you. Look for someone who might be alone, or a group of two that look friendly. Approach them, introduce yourself and ask how they know the hosts, or maybe ask them what they're drinking or eating that looks interesting!\n5. Be socially generous.\nStart with the mindset that you are looking for what is good in people all around you. Then, when you see someone you're interested in, you can find something nice about them and say it. If the compliment is sincere \u2014 the person receiving it will be flattered and respond! It's a great way to break the ice, and make someone feel good. You can comment on something they're wearing or doing, whatever seems natural and not too personal.\n6. Listen to understand.\nBe present during the conversation. It makes it a LOT easier to find places to connect with people, or things that you agree on. People love meeting people who grew up where they did, went to similar schools or traveled to the same places.\nThough, an important note: Don't interrupt a person's story to say, \"Me too!\" You'll look like a conversational hijacker. Wait until someone has finished their story and then say, \"Me too!\"\n7. Give juicy details.\nIf someone asks you, \"So Sylvia, what's new?\" don't say, \"Oh nothing really. Same old.\" Instead, say, \"Work has been great \u2014 I love my new job, and I'm getting ready to take a vacation to the Caribbean with my family soon.\" This makes conversation MUCH easier for your partner, and gives them \"juice\" to ask you about.\nFollow these seven tips and who knows \u2014 you could wind up being the life of the party after all!\nDating coach Bela Gandhi is the founder and president of Smart Dating Academy.",

        "raw_content": "Taking Flight with Taijiro Iimori, Opera Director with NNTT\nTaijiro Iimori, Artistic Director of Opera at the NNTT brings a unique approach to Richard Wagner\u2019s Flying Dutchman\nBy Sarah Custen\nTaijiro Iimori is a delightful man, in many ways. Full of joy, wonder and surprises, he is animated and radiant when discussing music. He is often seemingly overwhelmed by the power of the story he\u2019s telling or the image he wants to convey, and then is off on another fascinating track.\nSuch energy and vivacity belie Iimori\u2019s 73 years, the majority of which have been spent making a name for himself as maestro and conductor in Europe, Asia and the US. Now, at what could be considered the pinnacle of his career, he\u2019s stepped into his most prestigious role yet: Artistic Director of Opera for the New National Theatre, Tokyo. Yet, to hear him tell it, this cumulative experience is simply a matter of hard work, good luck, and fate. \u201cSome unseen power always pulled me into the opera,\u201d he said.\n\u201cThe orchestra is huge, the music is demanding, the story includes everything from the beginning of the world, and the end; philosophy and love and the struggle for power.\u201d\nAfter debuting with a Fujiwara Opera Company production of Puccini\u2019s Sister Angelica (\u201cA kind of destiny,\u201d Iimori said), he went on to win multiple international conducting competitions, honing his craft in New York City, and with work in Germany, Italy, Spain, Austria, and Japan. Perhaps his most notable post is as Musical Assistant at the Richard Wagner festival in Bayreuth, Germany, where he not only developed a passion for and understanding of the composer that would distinguish him as an expert within the field, but he also met (and delighted) Wagner\u2019s granddaughter, Friedelind, and her two opera director brothers, Wieland and Wolfgang.\n\u201cCoincidence, again,\u201d explained Iimori, with a bright smile. He takes his new role with NNTT with the same strong sense of humility. In regards to his new role with NNTT, he said, \u201cI was surprised: all of a sudden, such a big responsibility with the New National Theatre.\u201d\n\u201cI was a conductor always, making music with orchestra or opera, singers and chorus, but this is a position that also includes deskwork and management. So I thought \u2018No it\u2019s not for me!\u2019 [laughs] But the New National Theatre had a very good understanding of my interests and experience,\u201d he added. \u201cI\u2019m glad now; I can really dig into this opera.\u201d\nAnd dig in he did, conducting Wagner\u2019s Parsifal in October, and now preparing for January\u2019s production of The Flying Dutchman. \u201cThe orchestra is huge, the music is demanding, the story includes everything from the beginning of the world [to the present], and the end; [and] philosophy and love and the struggle for power. Everything is included. It\u2019s not easy. Wagner has a lot to say.\u201d\nIndeed, Iimori\u2019s easygoing personality could not be in starker contrast to Wagner\u2019s moody theatrical works. The Flying Dutchman, for example, draws its premise from a legendary ghost ship and its captain, who is fated to sail the seas, doomed to immortality, with true love as his only possible salvation.\nfrom 2007 performance (photo by Saegusa Chikashi)\n\u201cFrom the beginning of the overture, it\u2019s dramatic,\u201d said Iimori. \u201cWagner paints the scene, and you can see those paintings. You can feel the wind. You can get sea sick!\u201d\nHowever, the musical structures are not difficult, and other than a basic understanding of the plot, he sees the opera as quite accessible. \u201cDon\u2019t think too hard about it, because the music is so expressive and strong, it will come into you. And there are many ways of understanding it. There won\u2019t be only one way.\u201d\nEven for the uninitiated, Iimori believes that opera has something to offer. \u201cI think this whole world is turning always faster and faster, and of course younger people, they have to [follow]. It\u2019s fun, too, and everybody gets excited. But on the other hand, I think there are things you shouldn\u2019t forget, that take time.\u201d\nAt NNTT, Iimori is taking time to make sure that opera in Japan is not only unforgettable, but also fundamental, by introducing a broad operatic repertoire to the Japanese public, who he said are developing an interest in opera, but they haven\u2019t yet made it a natural part of their lives, which is what he sees in Europe.\n\u201cJapanese people understand it [opera], but they just need to let go and enjoy it,\u201d he said. \u201cIt\u2019s nothing to learn or study,\u201d he added with a smile. \u201cJust\u2026enjoy it.\u201d\nPerformances of The Flying Dutchman begin on January 18 at the NNTT.

        "title": "Descendant of Sea Biscuit Saved | Tranquility Farm",
        "raw_content": "ARCADIA, Calif. \u2014 By the time a Thoroughbred enters the ring at the livestock market in Chino, located only about 25 miles east of Santa Anita Park, that horse has become anonymous. It doesn\u2019t matter where it was bred, how many times it raced, or if it won or lost. Sharp buyers might know enough to check a tattoo, if they cared. But for the most part it\u2019s a matter of meat on the hoof.\nOn Feb. 2, a dark bay Thoroughbred mare with an irregular star and a sagging belly went on the block, and two bidders showed interest. One of them represented the international horsemeat industry, although he did not necessarily advertise the fact, while the other was bidding on behalf of a California equine retirement and rehabilitation organization. The hammer fell at $250.\nMost of the time the story ends there. The killer buyer somehow manages to transport the horse illegally out of California under false pretenses. Since there are no operating slaughterhouses in the United States right now, the horse will end up shuttled to Mexico or Canada, then slaughtered and exported in the form of supposedly edible fare.\nThis time it was different. On this particular day, the Thoroughbred stepped on a van and headed not for some foreign slaughterhouse, but north to the California town of Tehachapi, to join the herd of about 100 retirees cared for by Priscilla Clark and a dedicated group of volunteers at Tranquility Farm, whose patrons include Gary Biszantz and John Amerman.\n(At this point, it should be disclosed that this reporter is a member of the board of directors of Tranquility Farm. There are many Thoroughbred retirement organizations throughout the country doing similar work, and doing it admirably, especially since they rely on charitable donations to continue doing what the industry itself should be addressing with a comprehensive, well-funded effort. But that\u2019s a rant for another day.)\nWhen the mare arrived at Tranquility, she figured to be just another mouth to feed. She was welcomed with open arms, a thorough vetting, and the best grooming she had received for who knows how long.\nIn the meantime, Clark commenced her usual research. It was discovered that the mare\u2019s name was Isabel\u2019s Pearl, a foal of 1994, bred in California by Edgar F. Cruft. She was a daughter of the stakes-winning sprinter Oraibi and the stakes-winning mare Moscow Pearls, a daughter of Moscow Ballet.\nAs a 2-year-old, Isabel\u2019s Pearl was sold for $2,000 at the April 1996 Barretts Equine auction in Pomona. The filly received her name from her new owner, Maria Isabel Moreno, and in 1997 she raced three times without success at Emerald Downs, near Seattle.\nAs a broodmare, Isabel\u2019s Pearl had three foals and one winner. On Jan. 24, 2006, she was part of the Mary Knight consignment at the Barretts mixed sale. Entering the ring as Hip No. 568 of 586 cataloged, and believed to be in foal to Swiss Yodeler, Isabel\u2019s Pearl brought a winning bid of $3,000 by a purchaser named Isaac Vizcorra. She had no registered foal in 2007. Her next public appearance of record was at the Chino livestock auction.\nClark sighed. She has seen this movie before.\n\u201cWith feed prices high and yearlings worth half what they were, we\u2019re seeing a lot of Thoroughbred broodmares showing up at livestock auctions this winter,\u201d Clark said.\nAnd so, rather than being humanely euthanized, retrained, or merely retired to pasture, Thoroughbreds are simply dumped onto what is now an underground meat market. Clark continued her research, plowing back through the female family of the discarded Isabel\u2019s Pearl. Moscow Pearls was a daughter of Thaliard\u2019s Pearl, who in turn was a daughter of Jan Jessie, one of the fastest fillies in the West from 1968 through 1970.\nJan Jessie was a daughter of Pearl, and Pearl was a daughter of Sea Treasure, who was foaled in 1945. It was Sea Treasure\u2019s sire, however, who sent Clark through the roof. His name was Seabiscuit.\nAt such moments of apparent destiny, things tend to move quickly. Clark immediately called the Seabiscuit Heritage Foundation in Willits, Calif., which is dedicated to the preservation of a 5,000-acre piece of the Ridgewood Ranch owned by Seabiscuit\u2019s owner, Charles S. Howard. The foundation had reached out to Clark and other rescue and retirement groups to let them know they are looking for descendants of Seabiscuit to live at Ridgewood, where Seabiscuit healed during his racing career and stood at stud when he was retired.\nHappy endings don\u2019t just happen. It took a diligence, contacts, and perseverance to pull this off, otherwise Isabel\u2019s Pearl, bred to perform for the pleasure of her people, would have been slaughtered and consumed. Instead, on Friday morning, a great-great-great-great granddaughter of Seabiscuit was loaded onto a trailer at Tranquility Farm to embark on the 400-mile journey to Ridgewood Ranch, where she will be officially presented to the public in an open house this May.\n\u201cIsabel\u2019s Pearl will live out her life in the original broodmare barn where her ancestress Sea Treasure lived,\u201d Clark said. \u201cHopefully, she will produce a foal for them someday, and once again there will be a little Biscuit playing in the pastures where Seabiscuit grazed.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Backdrops are a great way to add value to your Photobooth. Although all Photobooth\u2019s already come with backdrops, there can be so much more that can be done to make it special. Most backdrops are generic to the occasion that it is used for. For example, a Christmas backdrop would likely contain snowflakes or candy canes. Some creativity can go a very long way when it comes to backdrops.\nMost people get a Photobooth because they want their guests to have fun and interact with one another. If you hire a Photobooth, why not add yourself into the backdrop so that you will be a part of every picture. As obnoxious as it sounds, this is actually a really good idea for birthdays and weddings where you are the focal point of the event. Moreover, this gives your guests an idea of how to take pictures. Have you ever been at a Photobooth but unsure how to pose? Eliminate this problem by adding yourself to the backdrop doing something so that your guests can use that as a queue.\nGreen screens are great because you get to digitally impose any design that you want for a backdrop. This is especially useful for custom backdrops because they get rid of clutter for you. There are 2 options when it comes to custom backdrops. Either you print it or you get a green screen. However, when you print your custom backdrop, you are stuck with it after the event. With a green screen, you do not have this problem.\nIf you decide to DIY your own Photobooth without engaging a Photobooth company, you can get backdrops printed at printing shops. With online shops, you don\u2019t even have to deal with the salesperson. All you need to do is to create the design and submit it to the printer. Once it is done, you can either collect it yourself or have it delivered to you. However, this way, you have to come up with the artwork yourself or incur a charge with the printing company to get them to design it for you.\nSelfiebox has been in the Photobooth industry for some time now and has done some very great work. You can check them out at their website to make a booking or find out more",

        "title": "How to RV in New York City",
        "raw_content": "How to RV in New York City\nYour RVing guide to driving, towing and parking in the Big Apple.\nEd Norton/Lonely Planet Images/Getty Images\nWhile most RV trips focus on the outdoors, you may want some bright lights and city fun every now and then. When you think big city, there should be one that pops right into your head: The Big Apple. New York City is infamous for its traffic and bustling streets, so what place does an RV have on its streets? But is it possible to RV in and around the city? We\u2019re here to offer advice on driving and parking your RV in New York City.\nWhat to Know About RVing in New York City\nNYC is bustling with people and vehicles at every hour of the day. While driving an RV through those streets may be challenging, it's not impossible. City buses, freight trucks, and other larger vehicles drive them every day, so there\u2019s no reason you can\u2019t either. The main difference is that they do it every day and you don't.\nPro Tip: don\u2019t try to navigate NYC streets if you\u2019re a rookie RVer. Experience and knowing your rig from head to toe is necessary. If you rent an RV, steer clear of New York City, too.\nThe standard of driving in NYC is to be aware. Be aware of what\u2019s going on ahead of you and to the sides. Use any passengers as the second pair of eyes and ears to help watch your surroundings. Take your time, don\u2019t speed, be ready to hit the brakes and do your best to stay focused at every hour of the day. If you think New York drivers are bad, the pedestrians are even worse. They\u2019ll cut in front of you, walk around your RV, and most of the time you won\u2019t see them until it\u2019s too late. That\u2019s why being aware is the number one driving skill to have whether you\u2019re traveling by car or RV.\nSome things to keep in mind when RVing through the city is that if you\u2019re carrying more than ten pounds of propane, you will not be able to go through any tunnels without prior clearance from the Department of Transportation. Your RV is carrying hazardous waste if you\u2019re traveling with propane. So, you\u2019re held to the same standards commercial trucks and vehicles are when traveling through the city. If you are going over any bridges with propane, you are required to travel on the upper level every time.\nRVs are also not allowed on any New York State Parkways if your rig meets the following criteria:\nUses combined plates\nCarrying rooftop cargo\nIs classified as a trailer or moving van\nYou can travel on any New York State Expressways in any type of RV.\nHere is a resource for RVing through New York City from the Department of Transportation:\nWhile the above resource is related to trucks and commercial vehicles, your RV will more often than not fall under the commercial vehicle classification in NYC.\nWhat to Know About RV Parking in New York City\nParking your RV in NYC is more of a hassle than driving it there. We don\u2019t recommend attempting to park your RV on New York City streets especially for an extended stay, chances are the people around you won't have the patience to wait for you to park. Honestly, there aren't many places in NYC you'll have the room to park your rig anyway.\nPro Tip: Even if you find a place to park your RV in NYC, we don\u2019t recommend attempting to park. The time it\u2019ll take you to get into place will cause commotion from other drivers and pedestrians which will put you on edge.\nNew York City law doesn\u2019t allow RVs to park in city spaces for more than 24 hours. While this law seems relaxed, we don\u2019t recommend it. Area residents don\u2019t appreciate it and you leave yourself at risk for crime. You don't want to get towed in NYC, it's expensive, complicated, and downright frustrating to deal with in a city that large.\nWhere to Park Your RV in New York City\nHere are resources for RV parking through New York City from the Department of Transportation:\nParking a Truck or Commercial Vehicle\nAgain, since your RV meets the requirements that make it a commercial vehicle to the city of New York, these guides are key to understanding the regulations that guide such vehicles when traveling around the city.\nWhat to Know About RV Parks in and Around New York City\nChoose an RV park located right outside the heart of the city. That way you stay out of all the messy traffic, are in a more secure environment, don\u2019t have to dry camp, and are still only a few minutes from most sightseeing destinations.\nThe best choice is Liberty Harbor RV Park located in Jersey City, New Jersey. Liberty Harbor has 50 sites with full electric, water and sewer hookups, shower, and laundry facilities, 24/7 on-site security, and even a restaurant and bar. Liberty Harbor is also located next to PATH and light rail systems making it only 15 minutes away from the heart of lower Manhattan\nIf you\u2019re looking for a unique combination of being able to choose between city life and a relaxing outdoor atmosphere, you should look at Cheesequake State Park. This state park is in Matawan, New Jersey. Cheesequake offers wooded sites along with some great fishing in a unique marshy ecosystem. You are also less than an hour by bus or train into the five boroughs of New York. Cheesequake offers no hookups so be prepared for dry camping.\nCroton Point Park is another good choice for RVers looking to venture in and around the city. You\u2019re not far from New York City and can explore the local area, which includes fishing, hiking, and biking. With full-service hookups, both weekly and monthly site rates available, and giving you access to boat ramps, bathrooms, and a playground, Croton Point Park is a great base camp for venturing into the big city.\nPro Tip: Read this guide on five of the best RV parks in New York for an idea of where to stay outside NYC itself.\nAs you can see, taking an RV to NYC is not as difficult as you might think. Try RVing to the Big Apple for some big city fun when you\u2019re ready to take on bigger RV challenges and more interesting destinations.\nLost Your Job?

        "raw_content": "Hrubesch crowns West German win\nOnly in the West Germany side because of Klaus Fischer's broken leg, forward Horst Hrubesch ended up stealing the spotlight in Italy.\nThe success of the 1976 UEFA European Championship fed the clamour for more places at the final tournament, and UEFA responded by doubling the number of participants as the competition returned to Italy for a second time.\nEURO 1980 all-star XI\nHrubesch leaves it late\nHrubesch and Germany double up\nWith eight teams now involved instead of four, the hopefuls were divided into two groups, from which the winners were to advance directly to the final. In another change to procedure, one of those eight places went automatically to Vincenzo Bearzot's hosts, but without suspended striker Paolo Rossi they faced an uphill struggle in a section also featuring England, Belgium and Spain.\nIf little was expected of Spain, England had stormed through qualifying and possessed a world-class striker in 1978 and 1979 European Footballer of the Year, Kevin Keegan. The Hamburger SV ace was unable to find the target, however, and after opening with a 1-1 draw against Belgium, England\u2019s ambitions evaporated with a 1-0 loss to Italy. Italy had kicked off with a goalless draw against Spain, and they too crashed out after being held to the same scoreline by Belgium, who were suddenly through to their first major final thanks to a fine squad and excellent coaching from Guy Thys.\nIn the other half of the draw, West Germany had voyaged south with a revitalised team driven by Karl-Heinz Rummenigge and 20-year-old Bernd Schuster. A playmaker in the G\u00fcnter Netzer mould, Schuster had few equals in world football at the time. \"I don't think I have ever seen such a perfect player,\" enthused team-mate Horst Hrubesch. \"Bernd was the outstanding player in the team. He connected the whole thing.\"\nThe Germans began by gaining revenge on Czechoslovakia, who had beaten them in the 1976 final, and made sure of a berth in the final with an equally satisfying 3-2 success against rivals the Netherlands. Two late Dutch goals almost cancelled out a hat-trick from Klaus Allofs, but Jupp Derwall's side held on before completing the group phase by drawing 0-0 with Greece.\nWith no semi-finals under the new format, the next match brought together Italy and the Czechs to decide third place. It was the holders who prevailed, reasserting their penalty shoot-out prowess after a disappointing contest ended 1-1. That proved to be the last time the third-place play-off was ever held.\nFortunately, the final itself provided more entertainment despite the much-fancied Germans taking an early lead when Hrubesch fired home after ten minutes. Second-half pressure resulted in a penalty for Belgium, which Ren\u00e9 Vandereycken dispatched, but just as in 1976 West Germany scored late on \u2013 and this time it was the winner. Hrubesch, who was only in the side because of Klaus Fischer\u2019s broken leg, was the hero again as he headed in Rummenigge's corner to reclaim the European crown.\nhttps://www.uefa.com/uefaeuro/season=1980/overview/index.html#hrubesch+caps+revival\nThe final - 22/06/1980\nBelgium 1-2 West Germany\nPlace: Rome (ITA)\nSee all matches",

        "raw_content": "A Day for Celebration and Happiness \u2013 Mother\u2019s Day in South Africa\nLike many other countries across the globe, South Africans love to celebrate Mother\u2019s Day. It\u2019s celebrated on the second Sunday in May, every year, and is a way of acknowledging the importance of motherhood. Kids, both young and old, use the day as an opportunity to thank their moms for all that they do, and treat them with gifts and thoughtful gestures. And it\u2019s not just mothers who are given the red carpet treatment. Grandmothers, stepmoms, foster moms, and women who are just like a mother, all should feel like a queen for the day.\nThe gift of your love will always be welcome, but what can you give besides?\nPresents for Mother\u2019s Day in South Africa\nTop rated Mother\u2019s Day gifts she\u2019ll actually like\nThere are just a couple of traditions associated with Mother\u2019s Day in South Africa. One of them is to give mothers a gift. The other involves a certain flower. Carnations are the most traditional Mother\u2019s Day flower of all. Pink to represent love for your mother. And a white one is worn in respect of mothers who are no longer living. However, all kinds of flowers are given on Mothers Day, including roses dipped in gold.\nFlowers, chocolates and jewellery are very traditional Mother\u2019s Day gifts in South Africa and across the world. But we\u2019ve been doing some research and come up with some more inspiring ideas.\nWould she like to learn something new?\nIs there something your mum has been yearning to learn? Would she enjoy learning how to wield a paintbrush and create breathtaking works of art? A few art classes might be just the thing. A professional artist will teach her how to draw and paint, as well as be an inspiration. Perhaps she\u2019d prefer a coffee making workshop. If coffee is the lifeblood of her working day give her the opportunity to learn how to make the best espresso, the history of coffee, and brew up a storm with a magnificent latte.\nWorking out but in a relaxing way\nYoga is a great idea for the mum who cares about her fitness. Any kind of workout is good, but yoga is also very relaxing. There may be classes running in her town or city, or you could book her personalised sessions with a professional. Whatever age she might be, yoga will help her get fitter, healthier, and happier. In a relaxed and stress-free way.\nA one of a kind gift\nThere are plenty of online gift sites, if you\u2019re looking for a gift that\u2019s a little different. Maybe even quirky. The world is your oyster when you do your Mother\u2019s Day gift shopping online. If you\u2019d prefer your Mother\u2019s Day gift came from South Africa you\u2019ve still got heaps of choices.\nThis is really a small selection of gifts for mothers in South Africa. There are far too many to feature on one page. Take some time and read of some of the other pages, and you\u2019ll be armed with all you need to make an informed choice. How about we give you some more ideas of what you can do on Mother\u2019s Day?\nWhat to do with your mom on Mother\u2019s Day\nShow her you care is at the very top of the list. And there may be a number of things that she\u2019s partial to It could be a day of pampering, a spot of fun outdoors, or to sit down and taste the finest food and wine. One or all of these could be just what she needs to make her feel special.\nThe gift of an experience will be a great treat for mom\nThere are experiences to suit every taste and pocket, and options for both young and old. What sort of experience do you think your mom will appreciate? Hopefully she\u2019ll ask you to come along as well. Here are a few examples of what\u2019s on offer.\nFlying experiences \u2013 Would she love to get up and away? There are a great range of flying experiences that will get her up in the air. A peaceful hot air balloon ride, a bit more adventure in a stunt plane, or a hands on flying experience, if you think she\u2019s got the nerve.\nDriving experiences \u2013 She can enjoy a blast in a supercar, test her off-road prowess in a 4\u00d74, or race a Lamborghini on a racing circuit.\nBoating experiences \u2013 Would she like to be a captain of the seas? Or does she fancy herself a bit of a pirate? Maybe kayaking or shooting the rapids is more her thing.\nAdventure experiences \u2013 Appeal to your mom\u2019s sense of adventure with a gift that will get her adrenalin flowing. Abseiling and kloofing, bungee and big swing experiences, rock climbing, scuba diving, or perhaps she\u2019s enjoy swimming with sharks.\nWherever you live in the world, spend some time considering your Mother\u2019s Day gift. Put thought into picking the right one for her and she\u2019ll love you for ever. Not that she doesn\u2019t anyway.",

Authorities in Indian-administered Kashmir (pictured) said the ban, which also includes YouTube, Skype, Telegram, Snapchat and Reddit, was because they were \u201cbeing misused by anti-national and anti-social elements\u201d to incite violence.\nThe Hindustan Times criticised the \u201cutter uselessness\u201d of the ban, which follows a wave of student protests in the disputed region.\nMeanwhile, a lawyer for Facebook, which is fighting a court challenge in India to changes to its privacy policy that allow it to share user data between WhatsApp and Facebook, has told the Supreme Court that users who don\u2019t like the changes are free not to use the services.\nKK Venugopal, representing Facebook, told the court in New Delhi: \u201cThose who find the new privacy policy irksome or violative of their fundamental rights can quit. We\u2019ve given full freedom to users to withdraw from Facebook and WhatsApp.\u201d\nGoogle and Facebook revealed as \u2018whaling\u2019 victims\nBack in March we reported on how a Lithuanian man, Evaldas Rimasauskas, had been charged with a \u201cwhaling\u201d attack on two big technology companies that had allegedly cost them $100m.\nIt wasn\u2019t known at the time of the charge which big tech companies had been hit, but yesterday Fortune revealed that Facebook and Google had been the targets of the alleged heist by Rimasauskas. Both Facebook and Google have confirmed that they had been the targets of the alleged attack.\nFortune said it had unravelled the mystery of which companies had been attacked thanks to \u201cinterviews with sources close to law enforcement and other figures\u201d.\nRimasauskas, who denies the charges, is facing extradition proceedings in Lithuania.\nTalkTalk could have been fined \u00a359m under GDPR\nBritish companies that were penalised for breaches last year could have faced fines totalling \u00a369m under GDPR, the forthcoming EU-wide data protection laws, rather than the \u00a3880,500 they collectively had to pay up.\nGDPR, which comes into force across the EU \u2013 and which also applies to non-EU businesses that handle the data of EU citizens \u2013 brings with it much bigger fines. The maximum fine under existing data protection law in the UK is \u00a3500,000; under GDPR the most serious breaches could incur fines of up to \u20ac20m, or 4% of global turnover, whichever is the greater.\nNCC Group came up with a model that extrapolated from the fines actually imposed for breaches by the Information Commissioner\u2019s Office and calculated what they might be under GDPR. TalkTalk, which last year was slapped with the biggest fine ever in the UK for a data breach \u2013 of \u00a3400,000 \u2013 would have faced a bill of \u00a359m, calculated NCC, while Pharmacy2U, which was fined \u00a3130,000, would have faced a bill of \u00a34.4m.",

He currently hosts Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, a late-night talk show that airs Monday through Friday on NBC. Prior to that, he was best known as a cast member on Saturday Night Live from 1998\u20132004, as well as appearing in several films.\nJames Thomas Fallon Jr. was born in Brooklyn, New York. Jimmy is the son of Gloria and James Fallon, Sr., who is a Vietnam War veteran. His family later settled in Saugerties, New York, while his father worked at IBM in nearby Kingston, New York. He is of Irish descent. As a child, he and his older sister, Gloria, would reenact the \"clean parts\" of Saturday Night Live that his parents had taped for him. Fallon was such a fan of Saturday Night Live that he made a weekly event of watching it in his dormitory during college. In his teens he impressed his parents with different impersonations, the first being of James Cagney. He was also musically inclined, and started playing guitar at age 13. He would go on to mix comedy and music in contests and shows.\nFallon attended St. Mary of the Snow, a Roman Catholic parochial school, and Saugerties High School. He graduated in 1992 and attended The College of Saint Rose in Albany, New York. He was a Computer Science major, but switched to Communications in his senior year, dropping out 15 credits shy of a degree. \"I was a Computer Science major. I got out once it got really hard. I made it up to C++. Then I couldn't do the math \u2014 it got really confusing. I switched to Communications, which is a ridiculous major \u2014 let's be honest,\" he recalls. On May 9, 2009, Fallon received a B.A. in Communications and an honorary Doctorate degree from The College of Saint Rose after presenting college officials with his impressive portfolio, which satisfied all requisites for his degree. In addition to receiving a BA, Fallon spoke at the school's 86th commencement. That night, on Saturday Night Live, he held up his diploma during the closing of the show. Additionally, he showed excerpts from the ceremony on his late night show May 11, 2009.\nIt uses material from the Wikipedia article \"Jimmy Fallon.\"",

        "raw_content": "PDL Unveils Cedar Stars Rush as New Member\nBy PDL Staff, 09/19/18, 8:58AM EDT\nNew Jersey-based club to join league for 2019 season\nTAMPA, Fla. \u2014 The fourth new member club to join the Premier Development League for the 2019 season, Cedar Stars Rush will compete in the Mid Atlantic Division starting next year.\n\u201cThe Mid Atlantic Division was one of the strongest divisions in the PDL last season,\u201d said PDL Co-Director Chris Madden. \u201cWith two of four Eastern Conference playoff teams hailing from the region, the addition of Cedar Stars Rush simply adds to the strength of the league in the area and New Jersey in particular.\u201d\nRELATED: Top U20 Players: Full List\nBorn out of a historic collaboration between Cedar Stars Academy and Rush Soccer, the Bergen County-based PDL club will strengthen collaborative ties between the two strong youth programs, adding an exciting platform to the Cedar Stars Academy (CSA) Player Development Pathway and offering elite-level players and current Rush alumni in college a chance to continue their growth towards the professional game. The club\u2019s administration will also be a joint effort, with Rush alumni and current Rush Soccer Director of Operations Justin Miller serving as General Manager and Cedar Stars Technical Adviser Juan Santamaria serving as Technical Director.\n\u201cThe objective is to help run a strong first-year PDL team,\u201d Miller said. \u201cThis league is growing, and there are many programs around this area. The key this year will be to help build a strong foundation for our future goals of being the top PDL team in the division, and then the country.\u201d\n\u201cWe are very excited to be bringing a PDL club to all of our CSA and Rush families,\u201d said Santamaria. \u201cThis is just another step added to our growing player pathway system. We want to keep giving our players opportunities for growth within the game and the PDL is a great platform for that.\u201d\nCedar Stars Rush becomes the fourth new member club announced for the 2019 PDL season, joining previously announced Discoveries SC, Florida Elite Soccer Academy and Wake FC. It also becomes the league\u2019s third New Jersey-based club, joining the nearby New York Red Bulls U23 and Ocean City Nor\u2019easters in the Mid Atlantic Division.\n\u201cA partnership like the one between CSA and Rush is incredible not only for the PDL, but for American soccer, with two elite organizations coming together to offer a bridge to professional soccer for their elite talent,\u201d said PDL Vice President Joel Nash. \u201cEach of these organizations are leaders in building their club\u2019s communities and we\u2019re excited to see the impact on each club\u2019s pathway as this team comes to fruition.\u201d\nTo stay up-to-date with Cedar Stars Rush, follow the club on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram or visit www.cedarstars.com and www.rushsccer.com.\nA part of the United Soccer Leagues, which also operates the Division II USL, the new USL Division III and Super Y League, the PDL has served as the proven stepping-stone for aspiring professionals.\nMore than 70 percent of all MLS SuperDraft selections since 2010 have PDL experience, including a total of 66 alums chosen in 2018. Among the many players to have played in the PDL before making their professional debuts include Newcastle United FC defender DeAndre Yedlin, 2017 MLS Goalkeeper of the Year Tim Melia, 2017 MLS Defender of the Year Ike Opara and U.S. Men\u2019s National Team members such as Darlington Nagbe, Brad Guzan, Geoff Cameron and Tim Ream.\nAbout Cedar Stars Academy\nA deep passion and love for the sport of soccer, along with a desire to give opportunities to young people, drove President George Altirs to form Cedar Stars Academy (CSA) in 2011.

The nutritional qualities of the avocado are outstanding, containing over 25 essential nutrients and beneficial phytochemicals. This combined with their smooth and subtle flavor makes them a welcome addition to our juice.\nThere are over a dozen known varieties of avocado, but it is one type in particular that we see tend to in the shops. This is the Hass variety and it has garnered a reputation for its rich and creamy taste. Although most people would consider them to be a vegetable, avocados are actually a fruit, and only really considered vegetables as a result of the way we use them in our cooking. Avocados have a similar shape to a pear and have deep green leathery skins \u2013 leading them to also be known as alligator pears. Underneath their skin they contain a pale, creamy flesh that surrounds their huge, single seed.\nThis fruit originated from the wilds of Central and South America, and evidence suggests that they have been cultivated since 8,000 B.C. In the 17th Century the avocado was spread to Jamaica and from there, Asia. \u201cWestern\u201d cultivation of the avocado didn\u2019t actually begin until the beginning of the 20th Century \u2013 but have since become a culinary favorite.",

        "raw_content": "Baidu Inc (ADR) (BIDU) Earnings To Fall As Mobile Drive Continues?\nApril 24, 2014 at 9:20 am by Aman Jain\nBaidu Inc (ADR) (NASDAQ:BIDU), the Beijing-based company is continuously making huge investments in marketing and mobile technology. Owing to such investment costs incurred by them, the earnings of this Chinese search leader are expected to decline in the first quarter. Baidu will report its first quarter earnings on Thursday, April 24, 2014, and as per the majority of analysts Baidu is a Buy.\nBaidu following U.S. counterparts\nAccording to Thomson Reuters-polled analysts, the earnings per share, excluding one-time items, is expected to decline by 6% year over year 95 cents compared to $1.01 past year. This EPS decline will happen for the first time in the past four years. An increase of 61% is expected in the sales taking it up to $1.54 billion.\nBaidu Inc (ADR) (NASDAQ:BIDU) just like its U.S. search counterparts Google Inc (NASDAQ:GOOG) (NASDAQ:GOOGL), Yahoo and few others is trying to increase the number of mobile users and the revenue from them. In an attempt to do so, it has been making huge investments in new marketing, research and development. This spending will also be carried by the company in the first quarter of 2014 as informed by the CFO Jennifer Li, in February.\n\u201cFor 2014, while we expect revenue to accelerate, we do not expect increase in absolute profit,\u201d Li told analysts on a conference call, in February.\nIncreasing the mobile presence\nIn the first quarter, the internet company has come up with a new marketing campaign especially for mobile users. Baidu had more than 100 million active mobile customers by the end of 2013. Of the total revenue earned by the company in the fourth quarter, 20% was generated from mobile, which was more by 10% of what it was two quarters back. Baidu Inc (ADR) (NASDAQ:BIDU)\u2019s mobile platform captures 40% of the market share in China with a user base of 100M.\nThe company\u2019s mobile distribution channel has secured the top position in China. It has a broad product portfolio comprising of various mobile products such as internet browsing, video browsing, online searching and app distribution.\nThough Baidu Inc (ADR) (NASDAQ:BIDU) enjoys a dominant position in China, it needs to watch out for a rival Chinese Internet Company Qihoo 360 Technology. Presently, Baidu has a massive lead against the rival but the gap is narrowing. The core business of Qihoo is related to mobile security software, but in recent times, it had been foraying in new mobile gaming and search technology.

        "raw_content": "Victory at last \u2013 Al-Mustapha\u2019s lawyer\nBy ABDULWAHAB ABDULAH & DAUD OLATUNJI\nIn a terse statement by the Lagos State Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice, Mr Ade Ipaye, said:\u201d For now, we cannot make comments about the judgement. Copies of the judgement are yet to be issued by court. I need to study it before making my comments.\u201d\nThe Director of Public Prosecution, DPP, Mrs Olabisi Ogungbesan, spoke in the same vein on telephone with Saturday Vanguard.\nHead of Abiola family, Alhaji Mubashiru Abiola yesterday expressed shock over the judgement of the Court of Appeal, Lagos which discharged and acquitted Major Hamza Al- Mustapha, former Chief Security Officer to the late Head of State, Sani Abacha, for conspiracy and murder of Kudirat Abiola.\nBashiru who spoke in Abeokuta, said that the family was hearing the news for the first time.\nHe however, emphasized that the family would not make any statement over the matter for now until a meeting of the family over the Appeal Court judgment which had not been fixed.\nKudirat\u2019s first daughter, Hafsat Abiola-Constello also commenting on the judgement of the Appeal Court, said, the family would soon come up with a press release on the issue.\nBut for Mr Olalekan Ojo, Al-Mustapha\u2019s Counsel. \u201cIt was a victory against injustice. \u201cThe Justices of the Court of Appeal in Lagos have brought sanity to the criminal justice system of Nigeria. They were unanimous in condemning the attitude of the learned trial judge in the handling of the case.\nAl- Mustapha s\u2019 Lawyers Oluwalekan Ojo and Yinka Ojo at the Court of Appeal Lagos Photo By Diran Oshe\n\u201cAgain, they said that the learned trial judge shut her eyes to the facts and evidences placed before the court and chose to rely on sentiments and politics of the South-West and that criminal conviction cannot be secured based on such evidences.\n\u201dI am happy that at last, justice has been done, but I am sad because of two things. For 14 years, Major Hamza Al-Mustapha was held in custody for a case that was doomed from the beginning. The case that was not properly investigated. A case where the evidences of prosecution witnesses were contradictory. The appellate court said, it was fool-hardy for the learned trial judge to have said there were no contradictions in the evidences by the prosecution witnesses.\nAl- Mustapha\u2019s mother died because of conviction:\n\u201dHowever, it is sad that Al-Mustapha\u2019s mother died because of his conviction. From the day her son was condemned, she went into coma and never came out of it as she died less than two months.\n\u201dNow, that is an irreparable loss to the family because of the perverse judgment of the trial court. I use this opportunity to call on those charged with the administration of criminal justice to eschew gossip, religious bigotry among others in the adjudication of any criminal case brought before them.\u201d\nLadi Rotimi-Williams, SAN.\n\u201cI don\u2019t know how they arrived at their conclusion. The law is an ass, I must say. It is surprising, very surp-rising and shocking. And I believe the state will appeal that judgement. Honestly, it is surprising and shocking how they arrived at the conclusion that he is not guilty. Because the facts are there.\n\u201cSometimes, I don\u2019t understand what is going on with all my long years in the inner bar. I am not suggesting any impropriety or that there is some foul play but it is shocking unless the state prosecutor hopelessly messed up the case; otherwise, I will say it is shocking.\u201d\nMr. Yinka Odumakin, a chieftain of Save Nigeria Group, SNG.\n\u201cThe judgement is a direct license to murderers to shed innocent blood knowing that they will escape the long arm of the law. The killers of Kudirat Abiola will know no peace because her spirit will continue to torment them for the rest of their lives.\u201d\nMr Richard Akinnola, Rights activist:\n\u201dAl-Mustapha\u2019s acquittal, despite all the plethora of evidence against him, to me is more political than judicial. With due respect to the Appeal Court justices, it was a perverse verdict which the Lagos State Government should appeal.\u201d\nDamilola Adegbite, Bobby Obodo bow out of Sexiest in Nollywood\nDomestic Violence 2: Are men also victims?",

        "title": "The Carlyle Connection | Village Voice",
        "raw_content": "The Carlyle Connection\nFrank Carlucci never trained much as a salesman. The former CIA spook turned Reagan defense secretary has been working as chairman for the Carlyle Group, the nation\u2019s 11th largest military contractor, and for the last five years, he\u2019s been championing the the production of 482 Crusader armored vehicles, over $11.2 billion dollars\u2019 worth of self-propelled Howitzer firepower.\nHe might as well have been going door-to-door with vacuum cleaners. Nobody seemed to want the damn things. They were bulky, outdated, expensive. \u201cIt looks like it\u2019s too heavy; it\u2019s not lethal enough,\u201d Bush said during a 2000 campaign debate. \u201cThere\u2019s going to be a lot of programs that aren\u2019t going to fit into the strategic plan for a long-term change of our military.\u201d\nWhat a difference a war can make.\nLate this March, as part of the post-9-11 military buildup, Donald Rumsfeld gave United Defense, Carlyle\u2019s subsidiary, the full monty: over $470 million to continue development on the problem-riddled Crusaders, puzzling some military analysts.\n\u201cThe Crusader has been the GAO\u2019s poster child for bad weapons development,\u201d says Eric Miller, an analyst who watches defense for the Project on Government Oversight. \u201cInfluence is tough to measure, but it\u2019s certainly had a friend somewhere.\u201d\nMake that a very close friend. Two internal Defense Department documents\u2014letters between Carlyle and Rumsfeld\u2014recently made available to the Voice show the intimate relationship between the Bush administration and the Carlyle Group.\n\u201cDear Don,\u201d reads the first note, dated February 15, 2001, and signed by Carlucci on Carlyle stationery. \u201cThanks for the lunch last Friday. It was great seeing you in such good spirits even if you are \u2018all alone.\u2019 \u201d\nRummy, all alone? The Defense Department declined to comment on that one. A spokesman for the Carlyle Group, Chris Ullman, explains that \u2018all alone\u2019 simply means Rumsfeld, fresh in office, felt overwhelmed by the duties of his new job. He invited Carlucci over to the Pentagon for advice\u2014not as a Carlyle chairman, but as a former public servant\u2014along with William Perry, former Clinton defense secretary. The letter, Ullman says, should not have been printed on Carlyle stationary. \u201cIt was an oversight.\u201d\nStill, Judicial Watch, the right-wing group that got the memos through a Freedom of Information Act request, says the connection between the Pentagon and the Carlyle Group \u2014whose advisers include the first president Bush\u2014creates the \u201cappearance of conflict\u201d and violate the public\u2019s trust.\n\u201cUnder normal circumstances, it would be advisable for Rumsfeld to meet with his former secretaries to talk shop,\u201d says the group\u2019s president, Tom Fitton. \u201cBut when [you\u2019re] working for a defense contractor, it\u2019s probably not a good idea.\u201d\nThe letter indicates they intended to continue chatting. It continues: \u201cWe thought it useful to follow up on our discussions on the need for reductions in the infrastructure of the Department [of Defense] and how that might best be done. . . . We would be pleased to introduce to you, or to whomever you might designate, the Commissioners who put this effort together. Best Regards . . . \u201d\nLocated a few long blocks from the White House, Carlyle has been called the world\u2019s most powerful private equity firm. But since September 11, the company has been having a little PR problem, not least because it once had both Bush and bin Laden family money\u2014though not Osama\u2019s.\nCarlyle\u2019s front men tend to come from the dark, Bushy corners of the Republican party\u2014like the president\u2019s Florida consigliere, James \u201cthe Velvet Hammer\u201d Baker, and former White House budget chief Dick Darman. Their staff is like a fantasy camp for former world dignitaries and international policy wonks.\nOn the roster of retirees: head of the FCC William Kennard; head of the SEC Arthur Levitt; treasurer and chief investment officer of the World Bank and husband of Bush biographer Afsaneh Beschloss; former Brit prime minister John Major; and former Philippines prez Fidel Ramos.\nThese bigs do business in 55 countries and specialize in investing in private sectors heavily affected by government change. Which, in simple terms, means they buy smaller companies in areas where they can predict public policy, then sell them for bigger profits.\nFirst in a string of high-profile recruits, Carlucci joined Carlyle in 1989, giving the company an inside edge on the Pentagon\u2019s $150 billion Pentagon defense-spending feast. With yearly receipts that topped $1 billion, he also showed company founders the wisdom of having a former cabinet member at the head of the table.\nBut what people misunderstand about Carlyle, co-founder David Rubenstein told Fortune magazine last month, is that his celebrity staff does less than people think, and whatever the public may be speculating\u2014e.g., global-domination conspiracy stuff\u2014is just not true.\n\u201cWe don\u2019t lobby government,\u201d he said\u2014and by law, even if the company did, it wouldn\u2019t be illegal. Carlucci, who has been out of office long enough to work as a lobbyist if he wanted to, told Fortune he had been \u201cparticularly cautious\u201d not to discuss Carlyle business with Rumsfeld. True, the two have become close friends since their Ivy League days together on the Princeton wrestling team, and the defense secretary and his wife, Joyce, often dine at the Carluccis\u2019 house, and Rummy occasionally lends Frank and Marsha the keys to their $280,000 ski condo in Taos, New Mexico. Talk of weapons development could easily come up between the two Tigers alums. In the magazine interview, Carlucci insisted it does not.\n\u201cI have never mentioned the word Crusader in his presence,\u201d he said.\nMaybe so, but the letters uncovered by Judicial Watch indicate the chairman might have gotten his foot back inside the Pentagon doors. On April 3, 2001, Rumsfeld replied:\n\u201cDear Frank and Bill:\n\u201cThere is no question but that we are going to have to tackle the infrastructure issue. What I may do is ask the two of you to come in and meet with some of the key staff folks who are working on those types of things here in the department.\n\u201cI will be back in touch with you. Sincerely, R.\u201d\nAdditional reporting: Jess Wisloski\nMore:Donald H. RumsfeldFrank CarlucciPoliticsThe Carlyle Group LLCThe Pentagon",

        "raw_content": "Spring 2008 Ready-to-WearChlo\u00e9\nAfter last season's vision of a hard-stomping girl on the Chlo\u00e9 runway, a slightly different spirit blew in for Spring. She made one of the season's more offbeat counterpoints to the pretty chiffon drift of fashion\u2014it was romantic and layered, but with the retro-cuteness cauterized by an intrinsic graphic modernity. Paulo Melim Andersson's close-to-the-body, drop-waisted, flyaway patchworked dresses, which ran throughout his show, were partly abstracted, he said, from the idea of wind and sails (he's a keen sailor in his spare time.)\nThere was something fresh in the collection, which featured a lot of painterly prints that echoed Melim Andersson's previous tenure at Marni, as well as a few rare thoughts about how to make transparency passable on a daily basis. As diaphanous as the asymmetrically tucked dresses and tiny wrapped skirts may be at first sight, each one came with some kind of under- or over-piece to ameliorate exposure issues. The top pieces were long, sleeveless blazers (a Paris trend) or long-line knits, and the under-things were chiffon leggings or shorts.\nIf it wasn't perfect (there was a lot of repetition of that one combination of elements), by the end, there was certainly a clear image of what Chlo\u00e9 will be for summer. Better, there was also a sense in which this collection had reverted, in a contemporary way, to the old-time Chlo\u00e9 of the early seventies, when Karl Lagerfeld made it the go-to label for fashion-sensitive hippie girls. The fact that Melim Andersson managed to make this link, however tenuously, is a point in his favor. Though the memory of Phoebe Philo's recent successes at Chlo\u00e9 weighs heavily on his shoulders, this emerging young designer is right to start asserting a fresh point of view in his own way.\nChlo\u00e9 Spring 2019 Ready-to-Wear\nChlo\u00e9 Resort 2019 Paris\nChlo\u00e9 Fall 2018 Ready-to-Wear",

        "raw_content": "How to know when not to volunteer\nPosted on June 20, 2016 June 20, 2016 by Prahalathan KK\nVolunteering is an act of giving back to the society, to ensure its smooth functioning, and to help shape ourselves as individuals. While active involvement does create a significant impact on the cause we\u2019re working towards, there\u2019s a possibility of overextendingourselves and experiencing a burnout.\nRemember, this blog does not intend to discourage you from volunteering. Rather, it explore occasions when volunteering may not be your cup of tea, or when, at the very least, you need to vary your volunteering activities.\n1. Don\u2019t volunteer if you face a time constraint. Don\u2019t involve yourself in volunteering if you\u2019re unable todevote the necessary time. Because, your absence or rare presence during key moments or otherwise, may disrupt the smooth functioning of designated activities, and result in other volunteers having to take up additional responsibilities. This is especially important if you have signed up to visit school children or nursing home residents, because, if you\u2019ve met them once or twice, they tend to quickly depend on you and look forward to your visits. As a result, when you don\u2019t show up, they may feel your absence. In essence, it\u2019s better not to offer at all than to let someone down.\n2. Decline if you are already over-committed to volunteering. If you are already on a parent\u2019s board, or helping adults learn English, in addition to working full-time, you may be starting to spread yourself too thin. In such circumstances, don\u2019t feel obliged to take on more responsibilities, even if somebody asks you to. Volunteering overload is not good for you, your family or your work performance, and it certainly isn\u2019t good for the organisation you\u2019re volunteering for, because, they can\u2019t rely on your presence. Instead, inform the organisation (you\u2019re volunteering for) about your packed schedule, and remind them that you are open to volunteering in future, when your current obligations have been met. Then again, you do not owe any explanation whatsoever. You can simply say \u201cI am not available\u201d.\n3. Avoid volunteering activities for which you don\u2019t have the temperament for: Don\u2019t become a volunteer firefighter if you\u2019re afraid of fire or if you lack physical fitness. And, don\u2019t become a health assistant volunteer if you tend to faint at the sight of blood. Instead, take roles that are better suited for you and leave the rest for others to take up. Alternatively, tell the volunteering organisation what your skills are and let them find a position better suited to your aptitude and interests. It\u2019s far more helpful to devote a few hours in doing something that you can do well, rather than volunteering many hours towards something you\u2019re not suited for.\n4. Be careful about taking on volunteer work that is \u201cclose to home\u201d. What we mean is, ensure that your personal problems and emotions don\u2019t spill over into your volunteer work, in a way that it impacts negatively upon you. For example, if you have been abused yourself and you have decided to help others who are abused, be absolutely certain that you have worked through issues that are likely to be raised in your role as a volunteer. You don\u2019t want to break down when confronted with an issue that is still very raw for you. This is not to say that you shouldn\u2019t find catharsis in facing the issues head-on through volunteering, but it does mean that you must be strong enough to cope up with your emotions as they are likely to be presented back to you by someone else suffering from it.\n5. Be aware of the fact that there are certain stages in your life when volunteering may not be a good option for you. Although temporary, there will beperiods in your life when you\u2019ll have to step down from volunteering. These may include: death of a family member, exam time, birth of a baby, illness and such. Each of these activities rate highly and you are well within your rights to put all your efforts into seeing yourself and your family through the temporary disruption. In time, you will have recovered or moved on from the hard part and be ready to return to helping others. This is about knowing when to let others help you for a short time. On the other hand, volunteering can sometimes be the only reality you have to hang onto, to provide you with stability, such as when you\u2019re going through a divorce or when you\u2019ve lost your job. Carefully weigh your personal, physical and emotional demands as compared to what energy you may have remaining to expend on others; be honest before overdoing things. You\u2019ll be a better volunteer if you take time out to strengthen yourself first.\n6. Avoid volunteering for something just because a friend is volunteering. You must care about the cause that you volunteer for; a reason such as \u201cmy friend is doing it, so I should too,\u201d is unsound. By all means, join a friend if both of you are truly keen on the work involved, but if you only do it for your friend\u2019s sake, you may end up resenting the volunteer work and perhaps even your friend. In such circumstances, tell the over-enthusiastic friend that you support him or her, but that your volunteering interests are being placed elsewhere.\n7. Don\u2019t be bullied, coerced or co-opted into volunteering. It is not unusual to be elected at a meeting which you do not attend, or to be pushed along by a crowd unwilling itself to take on a position that a club/school/organisation needs filled. If you are present at such a vote, strongly vocalise your refusal to take up the position. State clearly that you are not in a position to take up such a responsibility at this point in time. If it happens in your absence, send a gently worded letter refusing the position to the board, setting out brief reasons why you do not accept the nomination. Or, simply say you do not accept. You must want to undertake the volunteer work, otherwise you may face challenges pertaining to time management and other commitments.\n8. Question authorities who seek to over-rely on volunteers. If you feel that an organisation or school is asking too much of its volunteers, speak up and say that this work ought to be performed by a paid personnel. In such cases, exercise your letter-writing or phoning skills and ask the school principal, the local municipality or your locally elected member why the funding is so low for certain activities. Additionally, ask that paid employment be considered or additional financing be provided to ease the pressure off of over-worked volunteers.\n9. Ensure that volunteering does` not sap your time/ energy/ finances/ good will. If you really want to volunteer but you can\u2019t, think of other ways to help out. If you have the money but no time, donate the money. If you have no money, but have the time, donate your time. If you have neither, donate your messages of goodwill and support. Be creative; even writing a letter to the editor of a local newspaper to talk about the good deeds being done by others is a great volunteering exercise, often overlooked by many. Thoughtfulness, praise and encouragement for those who are volunteering is the most important contribution of all.\n10. Don\u2019t risk your safety. If you feel unsafe, consult the person in charge and let them know. For example if you are asked to venture into an unfamiliar part of town, late at night and alone, ask that someone go with you. If you are in a building site without a helmet or gloves, ask for safety equipment. Trust your instincts. If you are denied any of the safety precautions you requested, you are within your rights to leave.\n11. Be wary of any organization that asks you to pay them in order to volunteer, especially if you are strapped for cash. There are many other worthy organizations out there that do not charge, and will provide more hours for less effort.\n12. If you don\u2019t have enough money to get by, then you\u2019re the one who should be benefiting from volunteerism. Some people would rather volunteer than have a job \u2013 that\u2019s fine, but if you end up bankrupting family members in order to not have a job, it\u2019s simply unacceptable.\nCross posted from: www.wikihow.com\n\u2190 Tips & Warnings about volunteering\nCommunity Connect Fellowship 2016 \u2192",

        "raw_content": "What kind of Future do we want to live in?\nThe banking crisis, low interest, the waste of resources, environmental pollution, a yield-driven economy \u2013 the human race is faced with some big challenges. Is it all reason for despair? We discuss possible solutions with Thomas Jorberg, CEO of GLS Bank.\nThomas Jorberg (born 1957) has a degree in economics and is CEO of GLS Bank. He lives with his family in Bochum.\nBank uses the advertising slogan: \u201eMoney is there for the people.\u201c What does this mean to you?\nThe purpose of any business activity should only ever be to meet human needs. Money is a means of building society and should have a merely auxiliary role. It is a tool, but not the goal.\nWhat role does sustainability play?\nLet\u2019s take paper as an example. Humans have a requirement, a need, for paper. From our point of view, while satisfying this need, they should pay attention to how it is made and how it is disposed of after use. So satisfying needs should not be a one-sided process, otherwise we end up exploiting ourselves and nature. It is the duty of the economy to keep everything in balance. Anyone who acts unconsciously or with purely profit-driven interests is shaping society in a certain way \u2013 and one that is not exactly beneficial. Here in our part of the world we live in prosperity, in a society of surplus. We could easily and gladly contribute some of what we have. And yet neither money nor goods reach the places where there is need and scarcity.\nIt's a problem of distribution...\nYes, you could put it that way. We need new ideas, new framework conditions. The fundamental question is: How do we want to live in the future? What visions do we have?\nWilhelm Ernst Barkhoff, co-founder of GLS Bank, once said: \u201eFear of a future that we\u2019re afraid of can only be overcome by imagining a future that we want.\u201c\nThat\u2018s a very meaningful quote and interesting in that fear of the future seems to be something inherently human.\nView of the picturesque green courtyard of the GLS Bank headquarters in Bochum\nDo you think that value-based management is forward-thinking?\nAs humans, we have definitive values. But it\u2019s sometimes hard to implement these in everyday life. On the one hand, we need good examples \u2013 companies that make an effort to act differently and get their customers involved. On the other hand, we need responsible citizens who know that they can decide how they want to live in the future. They not only can but must choose what values are important to them at the end of the day. You see, there have only ever been two drivers behind fundamental change in the history of humankind: need or insight. I sometimes wonder how much more need is required for the existing insight to come to the fore. Economy means achieving a certain goal with the fewest resources as possible. When we no longer have goals, we manage the economy ad absurdum. Then economy becomes an end in itself, which it absolutely is not and should not be.\nGLS Bank talks about a \u201ebasic contribution\u201c that clients should make to fight against the interest crisis. In this case, are the people there for the money or for the bank?\nNo, that principle should never be twisted! The fundamental question is: \u201eHow we can strengthen our society with money?\u201c Based on that consideration, we discuss GLS\u2018 contribution with our clients.\nWhy did you become a banker?\nThomas Jorberg (laughs):\nBecause it\u2019s a great thing to do! Every day I learn so much more about different areas of life \u2013 for example how nursery schools develop, how renewable energy is evolving, or what happens in health food shops. We at GLS Bank only work with people who do things differently, who truly want to build a positive future. And I find being able to work towards that incredibly motivating.",

        "raw_content": "The Pentagon is studying an insect army to defend crops. Critics fear a bioweapon.\nScientists are critical of a DARPA program that they say could turn three types of insects -- leafhoppers, white flies and aphids -- into a biological army. (iStock/The Washington Post)\nThe Pentagon is studying whether insects can be enlisted to combat crop loss during agricultural emergencies. The bugs would carry genetically engineered viruses that could be deployed rapidly if critical crops such as corn or wheat became vulnerable to a drought, a natural blight or a sudden attack by a biological weapon. The concept envisions the viruses making genetic modifications that protect the plants immediately, during a single growing season.\nThe program, funded by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), has a warm and fuzzy name: \u201cInsect Allies.\u201d But some critics find the whole thing creepy.\nA team of skeptical scientists and legal scholars published an article in the journal Science on Thursday arguing that the Insect Allies program opens a \u201cPandora\u2019s box\" and involves technology that \u201cmay be widely perceived as an effort to develop biological agents for hostile purposes and their means of delivery.\u201d A website created by the critics puts their objection more bluntly: \u201cThe DARPA program is easily weaponized.\u201d\nDARPA\u2019s program manager for Insect Allies, Blake Bextine, pushed back on the Science article, saying the program is solely for peaceful purposes, has been reviewed by government agencies responsible for agricultural safety and has multiple layers of safeguards built into the research protocols, including total containment of the insects.\n\u201cI don\u2019t think that the public needs to be worried. I don\u2019t think that the international community needs to be worried,\" Bextine told The Washington Post.\nHe acknowledged that Insect Allies involves new technologies that potentially could be \u201cdual use\u201d -- deployed, in theory, for either defensive or offensive purposes. But that\u2019s true for almost any advanced technology, he said.\n\u201cI think anytime you\u2019re developing a new and revolutionary technology, there is that potential for dual-use capability. But that is not what we are doing. We are delivering positive traits to plants. We\u2019re focused on that positive goal. We want to make sure we ensure food security, because food security is national security in our eyes,\" Bextine said.\nThe program currently envisions three types of pestiferous insects as allies: aphids, leafhoppers and whiteflies. In nature these bugs routinely spread viruses among plants. Recent advances in gene editing, including the relatively cheap and simple system known as CRISPR (for clustered regularly interspaced palindromic repeats), could potentially allow researchers to customize viruses to achieve a specific goal in the infected plant. The engineered virus could switch on or off certain genes that, for example, control a plant\u2019s growth rate, which could be useful during an unexpected, severe drought.\nBextine said there are multiple layers of protection to ensure that this technology does not have unintended ecological effects. He also said that the program is not targeting the germline cells of plants and thus would not lead to heritable traits. The DARPA goal is to find a way to make a temporary, beneficial modification to plants in a single growing season.\nThis research may never bear fruit. That\u2019s the norm for most DARPA projects. The agency, famous for its key role in laying the foundation for the Internet half a century ago, typically funds research with a low probability of success but a potentially huge pay-off.\nFood security is a major issue not likely to vanish anytime in the coming decades, as a more crowded planet experiences climate change, pollution, loss of biodiversity and the surging demand for food and water. Crop warfare is another concern. In ancient times, armies burned fields as a strategic element of conquest. In today\u2019s world the threats could include the distribution of natural pathogens or something engineered in a laboratory.\nDARPA\u2019s description of Insect Allies touts the rapid-response feature of the concept.\n\u201cNational security can be quickly jeopardized by naturally occurring threats to the crop system, including pathogens, drought, flooding, and frost, but especially by threats introduced by state or non-state actors,\u201d the DARPA website states. \"Insect Allies seeks to mitigate the impact of these incursions by applying targeted therapies to mature plants with effects that are expressed at relevant timescales\u2014namely, within a single growing season. \"\nThe authors of the Science paper contend that Insect Allies could potentially be interpreted as a violation of an international treaty called the Biological Weapons Convention. They do not go so far as to claim that DARPA has nefarious motives. They have said that if observers see the program as having an offensive military applications that could undermine adherence to the biological weapons treaty.\n\u201cWe argue that there is the risk that the program is seen as not justified by peaceful purposes,\u201d co-author Silja Voeneky, a professor of international law at the University of Freiburg, told The Washington Post.\nShe said the use of insects as a key feature of the program is particularly alarming, because insects could be deployed cheaply and surreptitiously by malevolent actors.\n\u201cIn our opinion the justifications are not clear enough. For example, why do they use insects? They could use spraying systems,\u201d Voeneky said. \u201cTo use insects as a vector to spread diseases is a classical bioweapon.\u201d\nThe biological weapons treaty does permit research that has a clearly stated peaceful purpose, said Andy Weber, a former Pentagon official overseeing nuclear, chemical and biological defense programs and now a senior fellow at the Council on Strategic Risks. Weber noted that the biodefense community has been concerned about the potential use of new gene-editing technologies by hostile actors.\n\u201cOver time, terrorist groups and individuals could also exploit these new capabilities, but I don\u2019t see that as something that is going to happen this year or next year. But it\u2019s certainly something that we want to get ahead of,\" he said.\nJames Stack, a plant pathologist at Kansas State University who is serving on the advisory panel of the Insect Allies project, said the alarm sounded by the Science article is unfounded.\n\u201cIt\u2019s nowhere near the application stage. This is to determine if this approach is viable or not. I don\u2019t understand the level of concern raised in this paper, and to jump ahead and accuse DARPA of using this as a screen to develop biological weapons is outrageous,\" Stack said.\nHe went on: \u201cThere\u2019s risk inherent in life and you just have to manage it well. And I think as we move into a more crowded planet it\u2019s going to put increasing demands on our food systems, our water systems. We\u2019re going to need all the tools in the tool box that we possibly have.\u201d\nOne of those tools is genetic modification of organisms through laboratory techniques. Insect Allies might be so effective as an gene-editing technology that it could become a standard procedure for farmers, said Guy Reeves, a co-author of the Science paper and an evolutionary biologist at Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Biology. He said the genetic modifications -- delivered by what he refers to as \u201chorizontal environmental genetic alteration agents\u201d -- would likely spread into fields reserved for organic, non-genetically modified crops.\n\u201cIf this program is acceptable, and we decide this technology is something we want to move forward with, why would we use any other technology for anything?\" he said. \u201cIf this technology works, almost by definition, national governments will not be able to control its spread.\u201d\nDARPA said this week that the Insect Allies program includes grants to four research institutions: the Boyce Thompson Institute, Penn State, Ohio State and the University of Texas at Austin.\nThe research is still in its initial phase, Bextine said. The first major achievement is the demonstration that an aphid can infect a mature corn plant with a modified virus containing a gene that creates flourescence.\nThe corn glowed.\nIndustrious fire ants reveal surprise secret to success: Selective laziness\nBird migration explained at last: It\u2019s all about energy efficiency\nEthicists advise caution in applying CRISPR gene editing to humans",

Alan Mitchell, 34, and Gary Mitchell, 20, deny robbing Eric N. Smith on April 13 and stealing a number of watches, while brandishing hammers and a machete at store staff and smashing display windows.\nThe prosecutor played a clip on court of the raid, which started at 2.29pm and finished at 2.30pm when three men ran out of the shop.\nAccording to the STV News report, shop owner Yvonne Smith, 52, said that a man with a machete stood guard over her, her husband, five members of staff and some customers while two other men smashed a display window holding Rolex watches.\nThe court was informed that the watches ranged in price from \u00a33,400 to \u00a350,000 and that 38 were taken, worth \u00a3400,000.

        "raw_content": "Cupping coming to Gus Macker\nMaple City Physical Therapy brings unique treatment to Gus Macker\nHORNELL \u2014 After 20-plus years of running the Annual 3-on-3 Gus Macker Basketball Tournament, one would think that simply nothing new could possibly be added to the 2018 version of the weekend event.\nBut this year, the Hornell YMCA has teamed up with Maple City Physical Therapy to provide some state-of-the-art medical treatments to the players and officials throughout the grueling weekend.\nAlong with the long list of services the medical station normally provides within the walls of Sunset Hydroponics, Maple City Physical Therapy will add \u201ccupping\u201d to that list this year in an attempt to help the athletes stay at their peak performance levels for as long as possible.\nWhile one may be unfamiliar with the term \u201ccupping\u201d it\u2019s likely that one has already seen the result of the process on some of the more famous athletes in the world. Former Buffalo Bills player Eric Wood was known for using the procedure which was originally made famous by Michael Phelps in the 2008 Olympics.\nAccording to the therapists at Maple City Physical Therapy, cupping, which has roots in Ancient Eastern Medicine, is essentially the opposite of a deep tissue message with the same benefits. Instead of digging into the muscle and tissue, one simply uses the cup to pull it away from the bones.\n\u201cCupping has been around in Ancient Chinese medicine for thousands of years, and it made its way over here a few years ago when Michael Phelps began using them in the Olympics. And that really allowed it to blow up in the United States,\u201d said Maple City Physical Therapist Brett Partridge. \u201cEssentially, you just find any area of tightness or pain and put the cup down on it. It helps blood flow to the area and can migrate some of the toxins. In sporting activities, for example, you can have a lot of lactic acid build up, so it will get all the fluid flowing and the blood flowing. It\u2019s similar to deep pressure, only it\u2019s suction pressure.\n\u201cIt has a lot of the same effects as the deep tissue massage, it\u2019s just a different way of obtaining it.\u201d\nThe addition of cupping is something that the Hornell YMCA is extremely happy to have, and Dan Galatio was sure to mention how much it will mean to the event to have such impressive medical capabilities in a small community like Hornell.\n\u201cI don\u2019t know a whole lot about cupping, but I know that I\u2019ve seen it in the Olympics and that it\u2019s supposed to help with injury prevention and blood flow. But it\u2019s something a little different that Maple City Physical Therapy is going to be involved in,\u201d said Galatio. \u201cMaple City Physical Therapy has been expanding year after year in this community, and they\u2019ve really stepped up for us the last two years with their sponsorship of the Gus Macker.\u201d\nAnd while Partridge technically has to work all day, being able to bring something new to a huge community event means a lot to him personally as well.\n\u201cI used to play in the Gus Macker \u2014 for years \u2014 growing up. And I\u2019m really excited now to be on the other side of things, and be on the medical side of things,\u201d said Partridge. \u201cI can\u2019t wait to work with all of the kids. I love it.\u201d\nFor co-owner Megan Booth-O\u2019Brien, it\u2019s not just about providing the medical services, because being a leader in the community has always been part of the business plan for Maple City Physical Therapy.\n\u201cWe absolutely care about the community because we wouldn\u2019t exist without their support. We all work here, we all live here and we all think it\u2019s important to give back to the people who take care of us,\u201d said Booth-O\u2019Brien. \u201cWe work together really well with the Hornell YMCA, and we love to be involved in many of their events because they have a great capacity to do good for the community. They do a great job of hosting and organizing events, and we want to play a small role whenever we can.\u201d\nIn addition to the cupping, which will be available from 10:30 a.m. to 1 p.m., there will be ankle taping from 8:30-10:30 a.m., as well as a doctor on call and plenty of places to stay hydrated and cool.\n\u201cWe do have a doctor, Dr. Call on duty with some nurses right around the center court, and that\u2019s where Maple City Physical Therapy will have their headquarters, so it will cool to have that expanded a little bit,\u201d said Galatio.\nAnd while the cupping may be a interesting procedure, Partridge offered up just a few more pieces of advice in the hopes that nobody needs to visit the medical tent all weekend long.\n\u201cJust make sure to stay properly hydrated. Make sure to drink a lot of water and maintain proper nutrition, especially for the younger kids and teenagers who sometimes don\u2019t think about it,\u201d said Partridge. \u201cYou are out there all day playing games in the heat, so make sure to have a well-rounded diet with lots of gatorade and water. And then, make sure you are stretching and warming up, especially on Sunday. Don\u2019t just hop right into the game.\u201d",

Here are a few tips to make better use of your air-conditioner\nImage: The News Market\nWATCH: Fingernails, rings, car keys - Here's how to remove those ugly scratches from your car door\nWATCH: Worst driving habits, reckless behaviours and how to avoid them on the road\nUnlike today, air conditioning was not standard equipment in the 80s. It takes three years to develop each model\u2019s cooling system.\nThis time is used to study the geometry of the ducts and vents in 3D, and virtual simulations are performed to predict how the air will flow inside the car.\nNevertheless, people still make mistakes when using the air conditioning.\nBelow are five of the most common ones and a few tips on how to make better use of it:\n1. Turning on the air conditioning full blast as soon as you get in the car\nIn summer, the interior of a car that has been left parked in the sun can reach 60 degrees Centigrade.\nThat temperature can go back down to 25 degrees in about half an hour if you follow a few easy guidelines. One of the most common mistakes is turning on the air conditioning full blast.\n\"Open the doors and lower the windows for a minute before turning on the air conditioning\" is the first recommendation made by \u00c1ngel Su\u00e1rez, an engineer at the SEAT Technical Centre.\nWith this simple move you can \"naturally lower the temperature in the interior.\" Once the car has been ventilated, you can get in, close the doors and windows and switch on the air conditioning.\n2. Keeping the air recirculation option activated\nThis is another classic mistake that people make, because keeping it on \"makes the windows fog up\".\nInstead, Su\u00e1rez recommends driving with the Auto option activated so that \"the air flow can regulate itself more evenly and efficiently.\"\n3. Not turning on the air conditioning because the morning is 'chilly'\nDepending on where you are in Europe, some summer mornings can be cool. In spite of this, it\u2019s a good idea to \"activate the car\u2019s air conditioning, even if you set the temperature on high\" to prevent the windows from fogging up when the outside temperature begins to rise slightly.\n4. Pointing the air nozzles incorrectly\n\"Turn up the air conditioning, I can\u2019t feel anything\u201d, is a request often made by passengers in summer. According to this SEAT expert, most times \u201cit isn\u2019t a matter of temperature, but in which direction the air is flowing inside the car\u201d.\nIn order to get an even distribution of airflow, \"the nozzles should be pointing upwards, not towards people\u2019s faces\". With this simple move \"the air flows all around the interior of the car and reaches every passenger consistently\".\n5. Failing to perform regular maintenance\nJust like with the oil, wheels or brake fluid, the air conditioning system on cars also requires specific maintenance. It is recommended to change the filters every 15 000 or 20 000km to \"prevent decreased flow rate and intensity,\" adds \u00c1ngel Su\u00e1rez.\nIt\u2019s important not to underestimate the effects of heat when driving in summer. According to the SEAT expert, an interior temperature of 35 \u00b0C causes the driver to react 20% slower than at 25C.\nThe effect is similar to driving with a blood alcohol reading of about 0.5%. For this reason it\u2019s important to keep the passenger compartment cool and well-ventilated.\nRead more on: seat | spain | guides and lists",

        "raw_content": "Despite controversy, Henry Co wind project moves forward\nCredit: By Deanna Allbrittin | WTTV | December 14, 2016 | cbs4indy.com ~~\nNEW CASTLE, Ind. \u2013 Dozens of residents came to a Wednesday night county commissioner\u2019s meeting thinking they still had one more chance to sway county commissioners to vote \u201cno\u201d to Apex Clean Energy and its wind turbines.\nBut they soon found out their input and a vote by the commissioners weren\u2019t need all.\nAs the commissioners discussed the legal review of the road agreement wind energy opponents thought was necessary for the project, a $300 million capital investment, to move forward, a county attorney spoke up.\nHe informed the commissioners that with the legal review complete, they didn\u2019t need to have a public hearing. The commissioners had already approved the agreement in May.\n\u201cI asked specifically months ago, what had been done so far and what do we still need to do to move forward and there doesn\u2019t seem to always be a straight answer,\u201d said Henry County resident Susan Huhn, whose house is a mile-and-a-half from Phase 1 of the Apex project.\nAs confusion mounted in the room, the commissioners referred back to the minutes from the May meeting in question.\nIndeed, they had already approved Apex\u2019s Decommission Agreement, Economic Agreement for Apex and Road Use Agreement, pending legal review of the Road Use Agreement.\nAll the people in the audience could speak, but their opinions wouldn\u2019t be taken into consideration. Apex\u2019s wind turbines were a done deal no matter what happened at the meeting.\n\u201cWe were led to believe that the road agreement still had to be passed,\u201d said Huhn. \u201cIt was a placating tactic that the commissioners used. Don\u2019t worry yet. We still have to get past the road agreement. Then we hear today. It doesn\u2019t really matter if we pass the road agreement or not because they can go ahead without it.\u201d\nNot only was the agreement essentially already approved, but Apex didn\u2019t even need one. According to their representative at the meeting, Erin Wiedower, they decided to move forward with one as an act of goodwill toward the community.\nThe county\u2019s economic development corporation website clearly lists approved road use agreements as one of several necessary steps in the local approval process. Several county officials told FOX59 this as well, but it appears the Apex application didn\u2019t require one.\nStill, with Apex on board to finalize a road use agreement, the commissioners moved forward with one, telling residents they fought for the best agreement possible to help the county.\nThe initial agreement on file wasn\u2019t the same as other road use agreements commissioners had previously approved. It didn\u2019t require Apex to stabilize the roads before hauling in heavy construction materials, leaving the county vulnerable, the commissioners stated.\nThe agreement they approved Wednesday night, was filed by Apex and reviewed by the county\u2019s legal time earlier in the day. That\u2019s the agreement, the commissioners ended up rubber stamping, which they argued showed their willingness to negotiate and fight for the best possible option in the community.\nBut that argument ignores the fact that Apex didn\u2019t technically have to agree to any road use agreement to start filing permits to build in the county.\nBut they did and Wiedower says they won\u2019t start constructing before next spring.\nResident David Herring believes it shouldn\u2019t have been Apex\u2019s choice to sign a road use agreement. But he says they made the right one considering trust issues people in the community have had with them since the last time the line item was on the commissioners\u2019 agenda in May.\n\u201cWhen I saw the text messages, my first thought was, this can\u2019t be happening,\u201d said Herring. You know this doesn\u2019t happen. This is the stuff you see in movies and whatnot.\u201d\nSeveral text messages between a former Apex employee and commissioner Kim Cronk\u2019s neighbor raised eyebrows earlier this year.\nThe neighbor, who testified in favor of a tax abatement for Apex, asked the employee, \u201cMight there be a job for me with Apex/Flat Rock in the future?\u201d\nThe employee responded, \u201cDeliver Kim and we\u2019ll talk,\u201d referencing commissioner Kim Cronk.\nCronk immediately distanced himself from the messages, saying he never communicated with the employee, nor did he discuss Apex\u2019s subsequent investigation with company officials.\nDuring the meeting, he expressed his displeasure that the situation unfairly put him in the spotlight for something he had no control over.\nWiedower says the company\u2019s investigation led to \u201cpersonnel changes\u201d. The company\u2019s public affairs manager specifically stated that the employee who sent the messages no longer works for the company.\n\u201cWe\u2019ve made reparations and rebuilt that trust and it won\u2019t be an issue going forward,\u201d said Wiedower.\nSome people say all of this controversy, plus the turbines likely coming soon, has them ready to pack up and get out.\n\u201cI\u2019ve got my house up for sale,\u201d said David Herring. \u201cThat\u2019s what we have to do. We have to move.\u201d\nBut others are happy to see another wind company approved.\nOver the life of the project, landowners, including commissioner Ed Yanos, stand to get payments of $20.9 million total.\nApex is planning $2.6 million in direct payments to local schools and a one-time payment of $2.4 million to the economic development corporation. Their project, Flat Rock Wind, is also estimated to provide $18 million in property tax revenue during the life of the wind turbines.\nWith the tax abatement, the project will bring in just $140,000 in new tax revenue a year for the first ten years. When it ends, the project will pay an estimated $450,000 in tax revenue every year.\nThe $300 million capital investment would also make it one of the largest in the county ever.\nBut commissioner Kim Cronk says people who were angry tonight should remember that all these numbers and figures aren\u2019t a sure bet.\nNextEra, the first clean energy company to get approval for a major wind energy operation, has yet to file a single permit for a turbine in the county. Cronk says that could happen here.\nApex officials though, seem set on sticking to their plan.\nDespite rejections by Rush County officials that have stalled the other half of the project while they appeal the decision in court, the public affairs manager says that will not impact their move into Henry County.\nSource: By Deanna Allbrittin | WTTV | December 14, 2016 | cbs4indy.com",

        "raw_content": "The Netherlands\u2019 higher education system has been ranked the 7th best in the world\nThis is according to Universitas 21, the international network of research universities, who commissioned the project.\nOne of the factors boosting a country\u2019s ranking was whether its universities have a high proportion of international students, such as at Wittenborg University which boasts more than 40 different nationalities.\nUnlike other rankings systems this one, driven by the Melbourne Institute of Applied Economic and Social Research in Australia, does not measure universities individually but rather look at the higher education system as a whole in the country where it is located.\nNow in its 3rd year, the project aims to \u201cmeet a longstanding need to shift discussion from the ranking of the world\u2019s best universities, to the best overall systems in each country\u201d says a statement released by Universitas 21 the past week.\nThe 2014 Ranking includes the same 50 countries as in the 2013 report, which have again been ranked separately in four areas - resources, environment, connectivity and output as well as the overall quality of the system. However, the most weight is attached to output.\nThe Netherlands is ranked top when it comes to a good regulatory environment - which is important to make sure resources are efficiently used. For instance, excessive regulation of employment conditions will limit the contribution of academics and the capacity to attract globally-competitive talent.\nThe Netherlands is ranked 10th when it comes to sufficient resources - deemed a necessary condition if institutes of higher education are to perform well, the report has found.\nThe country is 9th when it comes to connectivity.\n\u201cThe worth of a national higher education system is enhanced if it is well connected with the rest of the nation\u2019s society, and is linked internationally in education and research. High connectivity provides two measures of the worth of a nation\u2019s higher education system: it is an indicator of the quality of teaching and research, and it is an indicator of absorption of new discoveries and ideas,\u201d the report reads.\nNot surprisingly, Russia and the Ukraine were among the countries where connectivity has fallen the most.\nRegarding output - which according to the researchers carries the most weight in the success of a national higher education system - the Netherlands was also in 9th place.\n\u201cA good higher education system provides the nation with a well-trained and educated workforce that meets the country\u2019s needs, provides a range of educational opportunities for people with different interests and skills, and contributes to national and world knowledge,\u201d the researchers concluded.\nFactors taken into consideration included the total number of articles produced by institutes of higher education, enrollments in tertiary institutes as a percentage of the eligible population, number of researchers per head of population and unemployment rate among the tertiary educated between the ages of 25-64 years.\n\u201cU21 developed the Rankings as a benchmark for governments, education institutions and individuals, and the project aims to highlight the importance of creating a strong environment for higher education institutions to contribute to economic and cultural development, provide a high-quality experience for students, and help institutions compete for overseas applicants.\u201d\nSource: Sorry, (universitas.com) does not exist anylonger.",

        "raw_content": "In a very different case of race discrimination, a manager commented that he wanted to \u201csprinkle a little salt\u201d in the workplace. A black employee who was later demoted filed suit. Race discrimination occurs when someone, either an employee or applicant, is treated unfavorably because of their race or personal characteristics associated with a certain race. Here is the scoop on this latest unique expression of workplace bias.\n\u201cSprinkle a little salt.\u201d\nAccording to a recent lawsuit filed by the EEOC against an Oklahoma Automobile detailing business, OnSite Solutions, the area manager informed a black manager that the company was looking to \"sprinkle a little salt\" at the worksite. The area manager went on to explain what he meant by this phrase. It was their intention to terminate black employees and replace them with \u201cwhite and Mexicans.\u201d A few days later, the black manager was, in fact, demoted and replaced by a Hispanic manager who proceeded to terminate three black employees. Those three were replaced by two white and one Hispanic employees.\nComment violates Title VII of the Civil Rights Act\nComments such as this one clearly violate Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, a law which prohibits discrimination based on race among other things. In a case such as this one, where an employer demotes one employee and fires three others because they are African-American, a claim for race discrimination is viable. In this particular case, the employer settled the lawsuit and entered into a consent decree.\nSettlement and consent decree\nIn some employment discrimination cases, the employer will agree to enter into a consent decree which prohibits further discrimination by the employer and sets the terms for correcting the illegal workplace conditions. OnSite Solutions agreed in this case to settle the race discrimination claims for $50,000. In addition to this monetary settlement for the four black employees who were demoted or terminated, the company entered into a three-year consent decree.\nThe decree enjoins the company from committing future acts of race discrimination against employees. The decree also requires the employer to take specific actions designed to prevent future discrimination, including posting and distributing an anti-discrimination notice to employees, training management and supervisory employees regarding discrimination, and revising its equal employment opportunity policies.",

The average price nationally for a gallon of regular is now $2.28, down 10 cents since the start of the month.And the outlook for the rest of the month is good: Wholesale gas prices suggest that prices drivers pay will keep falling, and this weekend could bring the cheapest prices so far in 2017, said Tom Kloza, chief oil analyst for the Oil Price Information Service, which tracks pump prices for AAA.\"There's a lot of oil out there right now, and that oil is being turned into gasoline,\" said Kloza.The start of summer is typically not a time for cheap gas, because people drive more and demand for gasoline goes up.

        "title": "Is brand-new Bible movie actually biblical? - WND",
        "raw_content": "Is new 'Exodus' movie actually biblical?\nAmericans want to know if star-studded film will be another 'Noah'\nFrom the look of the heart-pounding trailer, the upcoming Dec. 12 film, \u201cExodus: Gods and Kings,\u201d has everything movie audiences \u2013 regardless of their faith \u2013 could want.\nA story based on one of the greatest tales ever told. Top-notch Hollywood production values. Sweeping, epic cinematography. Awe-inspiring pyramids and golden-clad armies, chariots and thundering hooves, grueling sword fights and terrifying plagues that leap from the screen with multimillion-dollar special effects.\nTo cap it off, it stars multiple Oscar-award winning actors and actresses, including the charismatic Christian Bale and legendary Ben Kingsley, and is directed by Ridley Scott, the three-time Oscar-nominated talent who also directed the 2001 Best Picture winner, \u201cGladiator.\u201d\nBut as some sobering new statistics reveal, what movie audiences really want to know before they spend their money on a ticket \u2026 is whether the makers of \u201cExodus: Gods and Kings\u201d are trying to pull another \u201cNoah.\u201d\nThe earlier film about the Flood, also boasting big-name talent and a blockbuster budget, took wild liberties with its biblical source material. By its director\u2019s own admission, \u201cNoah\u201d was twisted into a tale far more about environmentalism than the judgment and mercy of God.\nConsequently, Christian audiences \u2013 who make up the majority of film-goers in America \u2013 largely panned the movie, and \u201cNoah\u201d required international ticket sales to avoid losing tens of millions of dollars.\nGet the truth about the biblical tale and its implications today with \u201cNoah: The Real Story\u201d and \u201cNoah and the Last Days\u201d on DVD, together at one low price!\n\u201cOur research shows that accuracy is a key to attracting people of faith,\u201d said certified brand strategist Chris Stone, founder of Faith Driven Global and Faith Driven Consumer. \u201cBiblical accuracy and compatibility with the story they know and why that story exists is very important. Any time you stray from that, you limit and narrow your audience.\n\u201cAnd if you narrow your audience by eliminating a large group of people inherently interested in your story,\u201d Stone told WND, \u201cit\u2019s going to affect your result.\u201d\nIn fact, according to polling done by American Insights for Faith Driven Consumer, of the 77 percent of Americans who self-identify as \u201cChristian\u201d (according to Gallup), 80 percent said they would be likely to see \u201cExodus\u201d if it accurately portrays the biblical account of Moses leading the Jewish people out of captivity, but 69 percent said they would be unlikely to see the movie if it strays.\nAmong all American adults, the poll found 73 percent would be likely to go if \u201cExodus\u201d is faithful to the biblical account, but 67 percent said they\u2019d likely stay home if it isn\u2019t.\nSo far, the makers of \u201cExodus: Gods and Kings\u201d haven\u2019t done a good job of assuring audiences the movie is biblically accurate.\nEarlier this month, Christianity Today reports, Christian Bale \u2013 who plays the part of Moses in \u201cExodus: Gods and Kings\u201d \u2013 told reporters in Los Angeles he has a much more gritty vision of the biblical hero.\n\u201cI think the man was likely schizophrenic and was one of the most barbaric individuals that I ever read about in my life,\u201d the actor said of Moses. \u201cHe\u2019s a very troubled and tumultuous man who fought greatly against God, against his calling.\u201d\nDirector Ridley Scott, who told the New York Times last year he\u2019s an atheist, told Entertainment Weekly last week he looked to science, not miracles, to explain the amazing events recorded in Exodus.\n\u201cYou can\u2019t just do a giant parting [of the Red Sea], with walls of water trembling while people ride between them,\u201d said Scott, who recalled scoffing at biblical epics from his boyhood like 1956\u2019s \u201cThe Ten Commandments.\u201d \u201cI didn\u2019t believe it then, when I was just a kid sitting in the third row. I remember that feeling, and thought that I\u2019d better come up with a more scientific or natural explanation.\u201d\nAccording to ET, Scott dove into the history of Egypt, reading about the effects of an underwater earthquake off the coast of Italy.\n\u201cI thought that logically, [the parting] should be a drainage,\u201d Scott said. \u201cAnd that when [the water] returns, it comes back with a vengeance.\u201d\nStone told WND quotes like these are trouble for the movie.\n\u201cIf Bale\u2019s point of view is that Moses was \u2018schizophrenic and barbaric,\u2019 that has to have impacted his portrayal,\u201d Stone said. \u201cIf I see that as a Christian, as a faith-driven viewer, I will sense \u2013 as I did in \u2018Noah\u2019 \u2013 the subtleties of the shift between the biblical story and the Hollywood interpretation. It\u2019s going to impact my interest in seeing it, or if I do see it, whether I like it or not and whether I share that in a positive light with others. Word of mouth is a significant driver of box office success.\n\u201cWhat I think is even more telling, although subtle, is Ridley Scott saying neither Moses nor God caused the parting of the Red Sea, but it was an earthquake,\u201d Stone said. \u201cThe story of Exodus was a battle, not between Moses and Pharaoh, but between God and Pharaoh and his (little \u201cg\u201d) gods. This was a spiritual battle.\n\u201cBut if you look at the trailer and what Ridley Scott has been saying, they\u2019re making an epic, \u2018good guy versus bad guy,\u2019 big battle, mega blockbuster,\u201d Stone continued. \u201cAudiences of faith may look at it and think, \u2018This is my story, but it doesn\u2019t look anything like my story,\u2019 and that\u2019s going to cause Christians, Jews and Muslims to pause. The three major world religions may say, \u2018That\u2019s not my story.\u2019 And that will be a problem for \u2018Exodus.'\u201d\nStone noted the surprise success of many faith films, like \u201cGod\u2019s Not Dead,\u201d \u201cHeaven Is for Real\u201d and even the original Hollywood shocker, \u201cThe Passion of the Christ,\u201d was fueled not just by the wider Christian market, but by the enthusiasm and word of mouth of a more core subset of the market, those he calls \u201cfaith-driven consumers.\u201d\nFaith-driven consumers make up, according to American Insights polling, 17 percent of the adult population in the U.S. Among this group, 96 percent say their faith has a major influence on their entertainment choices. Faith-driven consumers, the stats reveal, are also more likely to recommend a movie than the wider Christian market and more likely to discourage others from watching a movie that conflicts with their values.\nSignificantly, 84 percent of faith-driven consumers rate how a movie reflects the Bible as \u201cvery important,\u201d while only 51 percent of the wider Christian culture rates biblical accuracy the same.\nNotably, Stone\u2019s organization reveals, faith-driven consumers spend $2 trillion annually, a market share not to be ignored.\n\u201cIf we had consulted with Scott Free Productions and 20th Century Fox on this,\u201d Stone told WND, \u201cwe would have said, \u2018You have the freedom to do what you want; it\u2019s your project. But if you\u2019re trying to maximize your return, this is what the audience said they want. You\u2019re using a story that is central to the world\u2019s major religions, and if you\u2019re going to do this story, then do it so it appeals and doesn\u2019t offend.\u2019\n\u201cIt\u2019s no different than if I was doing a \u2018Harry Potter\u2019 movie,\u201d Stone continued. \u201cIf I\u2019m not true enough to the story to maintain the interest of the existing audience, then when I get to the theater, all I\u2019m going to be left with are those who gravitated to my version. If you change it too much, if it\u2019s not true to the story, then you lose those people.\n\u201cGallup polling said 77 percent of American adults self-describe as Christian,\u201d Stone concluded. \u201cIf you\u2019re not targeting those people, who are you targeting? Seventy-seven percent is the vast majority.\u201d\nFox News host sees dire future for evangelicals\nAmerica's largest Christian cross set for construction\nSatanists stymied from opening meeting in prayer\nChurch goes 'Star Wars' to show Christmas story\nPope talks end times, terror in Paris\nAmericans losing their religion: poll\nCoach who prays alone threatened with firing\nWashington coach says he'll pray, despite school ban\nBen Carson: End times are likely upon us\n'Allah' to join 'God' at U.S. military base?\nMarines under fire for 'God bless' sign",

        "raw_content": "STREAM Supports Language Skills Development\nWed, Feb 3rd 2016 12:00 pm\nEAST AURORA - Immaculate Conception School began a new summer assignment program this year. Gone were the summer reading lists, and instead each student was given a \"Young Observer's Notebook.\" Their summer assignment was to write about what they did during the summer and how they spent their time. Using the letters from STREAM (science, technology, religion, engineering, the arts and mathematics) students were challenged to write about their summer, their travels, trips, games, sights and sounds.\nOn the first day of the new academic year, the notebooks were collected. Student participation was excellent. There were more than 2,000 observations about a myriad of subjects that included animals, insects, plants, geology, machinery, food and weather. Many students wondered about the same things such the colors of the flowers in their gardens, the sun coming up and the shapes in the clouds. They counted, graphed, compared and contrasted. The world of children, their habitat and their environment, were carefully examined.\n\"I noticed when you are quiet, patient, and looking around, you will notice loads of things you didn't see before,\" wrote sixth-grader Jack Moffat.\nStudents learned to document and communicate through journaling and they expressed their curiosity and shared it with others. Entries in the journals confirmed that students are naturally curious, willing to explore, and excited by the world around them. The framework of the Young Observer's Notebook helps educators to harness this energy and encourage students to exercise and improve their English language arts in a manner that helps teachers discover what students are wondering about.\nThe STREAM program continues to grow into a full, rounded program that includes the necessary verbal and written skills of communicating knowledge.",

        "raw_content": "This drug-free solution to anxiety increases hormones naturally ... and it costs nothing\nAs you probably know, your body makes smaller quantities of estrogen and progesterone as you age. During menopause, symptoms from lower hormone levels cause stress, anxiety, and just not feeling quite right. In fact, these symptoms can be so severe and last so long that they drive many women to hormone therapy. Some choose synthetic hormones, some opt for bioidentical hormones, and some prefer herbs and creams. Each has their pros and cons. But there\u2019s another solution. It works, it has no side effects, and it costs nothing but a little of your time.\nThe proof comes from a study conducted at the University of Michigan and published in the peer-reviewed journal Hormones and Behavior. Past research showed that higher levels of progesterone increased a woman\u2019s desire to feel closer to others. But this recent study was the first one to show the opposite effect: Bonding with other people increased women\u2019s progesterone levels.\nSimply put, this means that when you spend time with a close friend, it triggers the production of progesterone. Without taking anything. What\u2019s more, it looks like this has a dose-related effect.\nThe first week the study participants spent time playing a computerized cooperative card game with another person. The researchers found that their progesterone levels either stayed the same or increased a little.\nAfter the second week, their progesterone increased more, their cortisol levels (which can cause anxiety) decreased, and they were willing to make sacrifices for the other person. They also experienced less anxiety and stress.\nSo if you want to boost your progesterone, do what I do. Spend some time every week with a friend. It doesn\u2019t matter what you do: talk over coffee or tea, go for a walk, shop together, or play a game of cards. This is not a waste of time. It\u2019s medicine for your emotions \u2014 and your body.\nUniversity of Michigan (2009, June 3). \u201cFeeling Close to a Friend Increases Progesterone, Boosts Well-being and Reduces Anxiety and Stress.\u201d ScienceDaily.

        "raw_content": "(Family Features) As colder months approach, many families enjoy spending time together on the couch watching football, indulging in delicious family recipes and preparing for the holiday season. Many of us look forward to this time of year when we can spend quality time with loved ones, relax, reflect on the year and look forward to the new year ahead. This can also be a challenging time to stay healthy, as people tend to stay bundled up indoors and the food seems to pile up on the dinner table.\nLearning how to eat well and stay active ahead of the holiday season may mean the difference between staying healthy or packing on a few extra pounds and creating habits that could lead to serious health issues down the road. That is one reason the Aetna Foundation is working to make nutritious foods and exercise programs readily available for families year-round.\n\u201cPoor nutrition poses a challenge to America\u2019s health, especially for vulnerable populations whose access to healthy food is often limited,\u201d said Garth Graham, M.D., MPH, president of the Aetna Foundation. \u201cWe\u2019re excited to support programs that help make healthy food and exercise programs more affordable and accessible to people nationwide.\u201d\nThere is a great need to increase access to nutritious foods in vulnerable communities and to make healthy food available, accessible and affordable for more people across the country. Millions living in underserved communities struggle to maintain healthy habits during the holiday season without the help of school-provided meals and activities. That is why the Aetna Foundation is working with nonprofit organizations across the country to provide healthy foods and exercise options and tools to more people year-round.\nThese tips from the Aetna Foundation are designed to help people stay active and healthy during the holiday season.\nEat well. When grocery shopping for large (or small) family meals, choose fresh, seasonal, nutritious foods as often as possible. When fresh is not possible, keep in mind that frozen and canned fruits and vegetables are still healthy alternatives. To guard against nutrient loss, be sure to eat frozen fruits and veggies soon after purchase and steam or microwave them rather than boiling to minimize the loss of water-soluble vitamins.\nCook together. As you plan and cook meals for your friends and family over the holidays, inviting your children to cook with you is a great way to teach them about nutrition and better food choices.\nGet off the couch. It can be tempting to curl up on the couch to stay warm and dry during the cold winter months, but find ways to stay active with your family \u2013 such as interactive dancing video games, an indoor game of hide-and-seek or dancing during commercials while you watch your favorite TV show.\nFind more healthy living tips for your family at aetna-foundation.org.\nSponsored by Aetna",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Coast to coast \u00bb As U.S.-Cuba talks proceed: End the blockade!\nAs U.S.-Cuba talks proceed: End the blockade!\nBy Cheryl LaBash posted on March 8, 2015\nCuban and U.S. negotiators have announced progress after the second round of talks to formalize diplomatic relations between Cuba and the United States. Both delegations characterized the discussions as professional, respectful and constructive. A sticky point, however, is the U.S. persistence in keeping Cuba on the so-called state-supported terrorism list.\nTo someone who knows the history of U.S.-Cuban relations since 1959, that the U.S. State Department could designate Cuba \u201cterrorist\u201d brings hypocrisy to a new level. When there is a crisis or disaster anywhere in the world, Havana sends doctors; Washington sends Navy SEALs, drones and snipers. The only reason Cuba is on the terrorism list, and the U.S. isn\u2019t, is that Washington draws up the list.\nLast Dec. 17, Cuban President Raul Castro announced that the U.S. and Cuba would begin talks to reestablish relations that the U.S. broke in 1961. Since then, one round of negotiations took place on Jan. 22 in Havana and a second on Feb. 27 in Washington, D.C. Amid what Cuba\u2019s chief negotiator Josefina Vidal Ferreiro calls \u201cpermanent communication,\u201d technical discussions are scheduled in March on civil aviation, human trafficking, marine preservation, Internet capacity and the structure of human-rights dialog. An interagency U.S. delegation will go to Havana to discuss regulatory changes. Vidal is director general of Cuba\u2019s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, U.S. Division.\nCuba\u2019s immediate concerns are Washington\u2019s listing it as a \u201cState Sponsor of Terrorism\u201d (SST) and denying its diplomatic corps in the U.S. banking rights. On Dec. 17, President Barack Obama had instructed the State Department to review its designation of Cuba. More than two months and two rounds of discussion later, Cuba is still on the list.\nSecretary of State John Kerry has stated that removing the designation was separate from the negotiations for diplomatic relations. In the press conference following the Feb. 27 talks, most questions addressed this issue.\nVidal answered that Cuba wasn\u2019t making the talks dependent on removing Cuba from the list, but she reiterated what was told to a State Department delegation last summer: \u201cIt would be difficult to explain that Cuba and the U.S. have established normal diplomatic relations while Cuba is on that list.\u201d\nCuba\u2019s good reputation, Washington\u2019s intervention\nCuba is renowned internationally for its quick and selfless intervention to save human lives in emergencies like the Ebola epidemic in West Africa, the earthquakes in Haiti and Pakistan, and mudslides and hurricanes in Central America. Cuba even offered to send 1,586 specialized health care professionals to the U.S. during hurricanes Rita and Katrina. Cuba has also taught millions to read, helping to eradicate illiteracy in many languages, including Indigenous dialects.\nWith the joint Cuban-Venezuelan \u201cOperation Miracle,\u201d Cuban doctors have performed cataract surgery that over the last decade restored or improved sight for more than 3 million people worldwide free of charge. (Cuba Debate, July 8, 2014)\nIn the same decade, the U.S. occupied Iraq and Afghanistan, killing hundreds of thousands of people, armed an insurgency that tore apart Syria and bombed and overthrew the Libyan government, leaving the land in chaos.\nIn the Western Hemisphere, the U.S. trained military forces throughout Latin America and the Caribbean to carry out torture and coup d\u2019\u00e9tats.\nThe School of the Americas Watch described this branch of terrorism in a December 2014 press release: \u201c[T]he Pentagon was forced to release seven Spanish-language training manuals that were used at the School of the Americas. They explicitly recommended abusive and unlawful interrogation techniques such as torture, extortion, blackmail and the targeting of civilian populations.\u201d\nThere have been many protests at the \u201cSchool of the Americas,\u201d now in Georgia, and, since 2001, renamed the Western Hemisphere Institute for Security Cooperation.\nThroughout the 1970s the U.S., in collusion with the military and intelligence services of Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Paraguay and Uruguay, carried out \u201cOperation Condor\u201d that led to the murder of 60,000 people, mostly left political activists and union leaders, as Larry Rohter wrote in his Jan. 24, 2014, New York Times blog.\nThe U.S. government began a terror campaign against the Cuban people soon after its 1959 revolution. Jane Franklin\u2019s \u201cCuba and the United States: A Chronological History\u201d details the campaign against Cuba that killed more than 3,000 people, touching almost every Cuban family. (janefranklin.info/Cuba.htm) Florida is home to Luis Posada Carriles, an admitted bomber of a Cuban airliner whom the U.S. protects.\nRelease of last of the Cuban 5\nThe Cuban 5 are state security agents who had been sent to the U.S. to infiltrate Florida-based paramilitaries actively engaged in bombing hotels and restaurants in Cuba. After being imprisoned since 1998, the last three of the five were released on Dec. 17 as key to opening U.S.-Cuba negotiations. This change in U.S. policy was an admission that terror against Cuba had failed to achieve the overtly stated U.S. goal of starving Cuba\u2019s people into a pro-capitalist rebellion.\nIt was a first step in ending the U.S. economic, financial and commercial blockade of Cuba, which is still very much in place. The Cuban Interests Section in Washington, D.C., has been forced to conduct its consular work issuing passports and visas without access to a bank. All has been done on a cash basis for more than a year because its bank accounts were closed and no other bank would accept Cuban accounts. The U.S. government claims to be helping, but nothing has changed.\nA small minority in Congress are scurrying to block diplomatic relations \u2014 while attacking the Obama administration \u2014 by further vilifying Black liberation activist Assata Shakur, who received asylum in Cuba. Neither right nor center, of course, will admit to U.S. state-supported terrorism.\nUnderlying the issue of removing the SST designation, normalizing banking and all the topics planned for discussion is the fundamental respect for Cuba\u2019s sovereignty. It is not negotiable.\nEnd the blockade!\nCheryl LaBash is a co-chair of the \u00adNational Network on Cuba and an organizer with the International Committee for the Freedom of the Cuban 5.\nhttps://www.workers.org/2015/03/08/as-u-s-cuba-talks-proceed-end-the-blockade/",

Administration\u2019s $6.\nCity council\u2019s consideration of a plan to confront the invasive emerald ash borer has been delayed again.\nAdministration\u2019s $6.8-million proposal to manage the inevitable decimation of local ash trees over the next decade was to have returned to council on Monday but was postponed until Nov. 7.\n\u201cThere was a request from (McKellar) Coun. (Paul) Pugh on the basis of the impact on his ward in terms of the urban forest as well as storm management,\u201d city clerk John Hannam told council.\n\u201cIt doesn\u2019t impact the action going forward so we accommodated his request.\u201d\nThe plan, which would begin in spring of 2017, suggests inoculating half the ash trees on public property over the next 10 years and removing the other half over the next five years.\nOf the 6,300 ash trees that make up a quarter of Thunder Bay\u2019s natural canopy, 3,400 are adult trees the city feels are worth treating. Of those, 1,700 would be treated in alternate years while the remaining 4,600 would be removed and replaced.\nCity staff has warned there will be consequences of doing nothing, including impacts on storm water capacity.\nCouncil deferred the plan when it was introduced in July.\nAll deputations on the subject were delayed until next month except that of Kyle Jessiman, who submitted a petition of 289 signatures in support of administration\u2019s plan.\nJessiman sits on EarthCare\u2019s Community Greening Working Group but he authored the petition and spoke to council as a private citizen.\n\u201cThe important part is saving the mature trees immediately and this decision needs to be approved in order to start that,\u201d Jessiman said.\n\u201cTo continue delaying this is irresponsible based on the warnings being received from our neighbours in the south who have been dealing with this already. That has been the main feedback: the mature trees that can be saved, that\u2019s the priority.\u201d\nHe also called for the creation of a municipal one-for-one removing-to-planting policy, similar to the expectations the province has for reforestation among forestry companies. He citied a 2015 greening group report, which showed 300 trees were removed last year but only 200 were planted.",

Some school classrooms are not even capable of being locked.

We're going to look at background checks.\"\nThese are the same issues that prompted high school students across South Florida and the state to march in protest, demanding change.\n\"I think that schools should have limited access points because we have so many entrances that anybody could get into, and nobody could stop them,\" said Jessie Budin, a 10th grader at Olympic Heights High School in Boca Raton, during an interview with WPTV earlier this week.\nAronberg said his plan is even more crucial after learning a student at Palm Beach Lakes High School in West Palm Beach was arrested for bringing two guns to school, just a day after the Parkland shooting.\n\"This could happen here and we want to prevent that,\" said Aronberg.\nThe grand jury will also look into changing mental health and social media laws.\n\"You can't talk about school safety without talking about mental health,\" said Aronberg. \"Our laws have not kept up with the reality of social media, that a lot of these threats are now made online.\"\nAronberg also said the Palm Beach County school district and Palm Beach Sheriff's Office may be called upon to testify to the grand jury. The grand jury report should be ready in June.\n\"We are going to leave no stone unturned,\" he said.\nThis marks the second time since his election in 2012 that Aronberg has used the Palm Beach County Grand Jury to probe an issue of great public importance: In 2016, a Grand Jury investigated fraud and abuse in the drug rehab and sober home industries, which led to major reforms in state law a year later.",

        "raw_content": "In the waning hours of a presidency that was destined to arouse less interest from historians than any since perhaps that of William Henry Harrison (thirty-one days from inauguration to death), Arthur Morgan huddled in the Oval Office with his last remaining friend and pondered his final decisions. At that moment he felt as though he\u2019d botched every decision in the previous four years, and he was not overly confident that he could, somehow, so late in the game, get things right. His friend wasn\u2019t so sure either, though, as always, he said little and whatever he did say was what the President wanted to hear.\nThey were about pardons\u2014desperate pleas from thieves and embezzlers and liars, some still in jail and some who\u2019d never served time but who nonetheless wanted their good names cleared and their beloved rights restored. All claimed to be friends, or friends of friends, or die-hard supporters, though only a few had ever gotten the chance to proclaim their support before that eleventh hour. How sad that after four tumultuous years of leading the free world it would all fizzle into one miserable pile of requests from a bunch of crooks. Which thieves should be allowed to steal again? That was the momentous question facing the President as the hours crept by.\nThe last friend was Critz, an old fraternity pal from their days at Cornell when Morgan ran the student government while Critz stuffed the ballot boxes. In the past four years, Critz had served as press secretary, chief of staff, national security advisor, and even secretary of state, though that appointment lasted for only three months and was hastily rescinded when Critz\u2019s unique style of diplomacy nearly ignited World War III. Critz\u2019s last appointment had taken place the previous October, in the final frantic weeks of the reelection onslaught. With the polls showing President Morgan trailing badly in at least forty states, Critz seized control of the campaign and managed to alienate the rest of the country, except, arguably, Alaska.\nIt had been a historic election; never before had an incumbent president received so few electoral votes. Three to be exact, all from Alaska, the only state Morgan had not visited, at Critz\u2019s advice. Five hundred and thirty-five for the challenger, three for President Morgan. The word \u201clandslide\u201d did not even begin to capture the enormity of the shellacking.\nOnce the votes were counted, the challenger, following bad advice, decided to contest the results in Alaska. Why not go for all 538 electoral votes? he reasoned. Never again would a candidate for the presidency have the opportunity to completely whitewash his opponent, to throw the mother of all shutouts. For six weeks the President suffered even more while lawsuits raged in Alaska. When the Supreme Court there eventually awarded him the state\u2019s three electoral votes, he and Critz had a very quiet bottle of champagne.\nPresident Morgan had become enamored of Alaska, even though the certified results gave him a scant seventeen-vote margin.\nHe should have avoided more states.\nHe even lost Delaware, his home, where the once-enlightened electorate had allowed him to serve eight wonderful years as governor. Just as he had never found the time to visit Alaska, his opponent had totally ignored Delaware\u2014no organization to speak of, no television ads, not a single campaign stop. And his opponent still took 52 percent of the vote!\nCritz sat in a thick leather chair and held a notepad with a list of a hundred things that needed to be done immediately. He watched his President move slowly from one window to the next, peering into the darkness, dreaming of what might have been. The man was depressed and humiliated. At fifty-eight his life was over, his career a wreck, his marriage crumbling. Mrs. Morgan had already moved back to Wilmington and was openly laughing at the idea of living in a cabin in Alaska. Critz had secret doubts about his friend\u2019s ability to hunt and fish for the rest of his life, but the prospect of living two thousand miles from Mrs. Morgan was very appealing. They might have carried Nebraska if the rather blue-blooded First Lady had not referred to the football team as the \u201cSooners.\u201d\nThe Nebraska Sooners!\nOvernight, Morgan fell so far in the polls in both Nebraska and Oklahoma that he never recovered.\nAnd in Texas she took a bite of prizewinning chili and began vomiting. As she was rushed to the hospital a microphone captured her still-famous words: \u201cHow can you backward people eat such a putrid mess?\u201d\nNebraska has five electoral votes. Texas has thirty-four. Insulting the local football team was a mistake they could have survived. But no candidate could overcome such a belittling description of Texas chili.\nWhat a campaign! Critz was tempted to write a book. Someone needed to record the disaster.\nTheir partnership of almost forty years was ending. Critz had lined up a job with a defense contractor for $200,000 a year, and he would hit the lecture circuit at $50,000 a speech if anybody was desperate enough to pay it. After dedicating his life to public service, he was broke and aging quickly and anxious to make a buck.\nThe President had sold his handsome home in Georgetown for a huge profit. He\u2019d bought a small ranch in Alaska, where the people evidently admired him. He planned to spend the rest of his days there, hunting, fishing, perhaps writing his memoirs. Whatever he did in Alaska, it would have nothing to do with politics and Washington. He would not be the senior statesman, the grand old man of anybody\u2019s party, the sage voice of experience. No farewell tours, convention speeches, endowed chairs of political science. No presidential library. The people had spoken with a clear and thunderous voice. If they didn\u2019t want him, then he could certainly live without them.\n\u201cWe need to make a decision about Cuccinello,\u201d Critz said. The President was still standing at a window, looking at nothing in the darkness, still pondering Delaware. \u201cWho?\u201d\n\u201cFiggy Cuccinello, that movie director who was indicted for having sex with a young starlet.\u201d\n\u201cHow young?\u201d\n\u201cFifteen, I think.\u201d\n\u201cThat\u2019s pretty young.\u201d\n\u201cYes, it is. He fled to Argentina where\u2019s he\u2019s been for ten years. Now he\u2019s homesick, wants to come back and start making dreadful movies again. He says his art is calling him home.\u201d\n\u201cPerhaps the young girls are calling him home.\u201d\n\u201cSeventeen wouldn\u2019t bother me. Fifteen\u2019s too young.\u201d\n\u201cHis offer is up to five million.\u201d\nThe President turned and looked at Critz. \u201cHe\u2019s offering five million for a pardon?\u201d\n\u201cYes, and he needs to move quickly. The money has to be wired out of Switzerland. It\u2019s three in the morning over there.\u201d\n\u201cWhere would it go?\u201d\n\u201cWe have accounts offshore. It\u2019s easy.\u201d\n\u201cWhat would the press do?\u201d\n\u201cIt would be ugly.\u201d\n\u201cIt\u2019s always ugly.\u201d\n\u201cThis would be especially ugly.\u201d\n\u201cI really don\u2019t care about the press,\u201d Morgan said.\nThen why did you ask? Critz wanted to say.\n\u201cCan the money be traced?\u201d the President asked and turned back to the window.\nWith his right hand, the President began scratching the back of his neck, something he always did when wrestling with a difficult decision. Ten minutes before he almost nuked North Korea, he\u2019d scratched until the skin broke and blood oozed onto the collar of his white shirt. \u201cThe answer is no,\u201d he said. \u201cFifteen is too young.\u201d\nWithout a knock, the door opened and Artie Morgan, the President\u2019s son, barged in holding a Heineken in one hand and some papers in the other. \u201cJust talked to the CIA,\u201d he said casually. He wore faded jeans and no socks. \u201cMaynard\u2019s on the way over.\u201d He dumped the papers on the desk and left the room, slamming the door behind him.\nArtie would take the $5 million without hesitation, Critz thought to himself, regardless of the girl\u2019s age. Fifteen was certainly not too young for Artie. They might have carried Kansas if Artie hadn\u2019t been caught in a Topeka motel room with three cheerleaders, the oldest of whom was seventeen. A grandstanding prosecutor had finally dropped the charges\u2014two days after the election\u2014when all three girls signed affidavits claiming they had not had sex with Artie. They were about to, in fact had been just seconds away from all manner of frolicking, when one of their mothers knocked on the motel room door and prevented an orgy.\nThe President sat in his leather rocker and pretended to flip through some useless papers. \u201cWhat\u2019s the latest on Backman?\u201d he asked.\nIn his eighteen years as director of the CIA, Teddy Maynard had been to the White House less than ten times. And never for dinner (he always declined for health reasons), and never to say howdy to a foreign hotshot (he couldn\u2019t have cared less). Back when he could walk, he had occasionally stopped by to confer with whoever happened to be president, and perhaps one or two of his policy makers. Now, since he was in a wheelchair, his conversations with the White House were by phone. Twice, a vice president had actually been driven out to Langley to meet with Mr. Maynard.\nThe only advantage of being in a wheelchair was that it provided a wonderful excuse to go or stay or do whatever he damn well pleased. No one wanted to push around an old crippled man.\nA spy for almost fifty years, he now preferred the luxury of looking directly behind himself when he moved about. He traveled in an unmarked white van\u2014bulletproof glass, lead walls, two heavily armed boys perched behind the heavily armed driver\u2014with his wheelchair clamped to the floor in the rear and facing back, so that Teddy could see the traffic that could not see him. Two other vans followed at a distance, and any misguided attempt to get near the director would be instantly terminated. None was expected. Most of the world thought Teddy Maynard was either dead or idling away his final days in some secret nursing home where old spies were sent to die.\nTeddy wanted it that way.\nHe was wrapped in a heavy gray quilt, and tended to by Hoby, his faithful aide. As the van moved along the Beltway at a constant sixty miles an hour, Teddy sipped green tea poured from a thermos by Hoby, and watched the cars behind them. Hoby sat next to the wheelchair on a leather stool made especially for him.\nA sip of tea and Teddy said, \u201cWhere\u2019s Backman right now?\u201d\n\u201cIn his cell,\u201d Hoby answered.\n\u201cAnd our people are with the warden?\u201d\n\u201cThey\u2019re sitting in his office, waiting.\u201d\nAnother sip from a paper cup, one carefully guarded with both hands. The hands were frail, veiny, the color of skim milk, as if they had already died and were patiently waiting for the rest of the body. \u201cHow long will it take to get him out of the country?\u201d\n\u201cAbout four hours.\u201d\n\u201cAnd the plan is in place?\u201d\n\u201cEverything is ready. We're waiting on the green light.\u201d\n\u201cI hope this moron can see it my way.\u201d\nCritz and the moron were staring at the walls of the Oval Office, their heavy silence broken occasionally by a comment about Joel Backman. They had to talk about something, because neither would mention what was really on his mind.\nCan this be happening?\nIs this finally the end?\nForty years. From Cornell to the Oval Office. The end was so abrupt that they had not had enough time to properly prepare for it. They had been counting on four more years. Four years of glory as they carefully crafted a legacy, then rode gallantly into the sunset.\nThough it was late, it seemed to grow even darker outside. The windows that overlooked the Rose Garden were black. A clock above the fireplace could almost be heard as it ticked nonstop in its final countdown.\n\u201cWhat will the press do if I pardon Backman?\u201d the President asked, not for the first time.\n\u201cGo berserk.\u201d\n\u201cYou won\u2019t be around.\u201d\n\u201cNo, I won\u2019t.\u201d After the transfer of power at noon the next day, his escape from Washington would begin with a private jet (owned by an oil company) to an old friend\u2019s villa on the island of Barbados. At Morgan\u2019s instructions, the televisions had been removed from the villa, no newspapers or magazines would be delivered, and all phones had been unplugged. He would have no contact with anyone, not even Critz, and especially not Mrs. Morgan, for at least a month. He wouldn\u2019t care if Washington burned. In fact, he secretly hoped that it would.\nAfter Barbados, he would sneak up to his cabin in Alaska, and there he would continue to ignore the world as the winter passed and he waited on spring.\n\u201cShould we pardon him?\u201d the President asked.\n\u201cProbably,\u201d Critz said.\nThe President had shifted to the \u201cwe\u201d mode now, something he invariably did when a potentially unpopular decision was at hand. For the easy ones, it was always \u201cI.\u201d When he needed a crutch, and especially when he would need someone to blame, he opened up the decision-making process and included Critz.\nCritz had been taking the blame for forty years, and though he was certainly used to it, he was nonetheless tired of it. He said, \u201cThere\u2019s a very good chance we wouldn\u2019t be here had it not been for Joel Backman.\u201d\n\u201cYou may be right about that,\u201d the President said. He had always maintained that he had been elected because of his brilliant campaigning, charismatic personality, uncanny grasp of the issues, and clear vision for America. To finally admit that he owed anything to Joel Backman was almost shocking.\nBut Critz was too calloused, and too tired, to be shocked.\nSix years ago, the Backman scandal had engulfed much of Washington and eventually tainted the White House. A cloud appeared over a popular president, paving the way for Arthur Morgan to stumble his way into the White House.\nNow that he was stumbling out, he relished the idea of one last arbitrary slap in the face to the Washington establishment that had shunned him for four years. A reprieve for Joel Backman would rattle the walls of every office building in D.C. and shock the press into a blathering frenzy. Morgan liked the idea. While he sunned away on Barbados the city would gridlock once again as congressmen demanded hearings and prosecutors performed for the cameras and the insufferable talking heads prattled nonstop on cable news.\nThe President smiled into the darkness.\nOn the Arlington Memorial Bridge, over the Potomac River, Hoby refilled the director\u2019s paper cup with green tea. \u201cThank you,\u201d Teddy said softly. \u201cWhat\u2019s our boy doing tomorrow when he leaves office?\u201d he asked.\n\u201cFleeing the country.\u201d\n\u201cHe should\u2019ve left sooner.\u201d\n\u201cHe plans to spend a month in the Caribbean, licking his wounds, ignoring the world, pouting, waiting for someone to show some interest.\u201d\n\u201cAnd Mrs. Morgan?\u201d\n\u201cShe\u2019s already back in Delaware playing bridge.\u201d\n\u201cAre they splitting?\u201d\n\u201cIf he\u2019s smart. Who knows?\u201d\nTeddy took a careful sip of tea. \u201cSo what\u2019s our leverage if Morgan balks?\u201d\n\u201cI don\u2019t think he\u2019ll balk. The preliminary talks have gone well. Critz seems to be on board. He has a much better feel of things now than Morgan. Critz knows that they would\u2019ve never seen the Oval Office had it not been for the Backman scandal.\u201d\n\u201cAs I said, what\u2019s our leverage if he balks?\u201d\n\u201cNone, really. He\u2019s an idiot, but he\u2019s a clean one.\u201d\nThey turned off Constitution Avenue onto 18th Street and were soon entering the east gate of the White House. Men with machine guns materialized from the darkness, then Secret Service agents in black trench coats stopped the van. Code words were used, radios squawked, and within minutes Teddy was being lowered from the van. Inside, a cursory search of his wheelchair revealed nothing but a crippled and bundled-up old man.\nArtie, minus the Heineken, and again without knocking, poked his head through the door and announced: \u201cMaynard\u2019s here.\u201d\n\u201cSo he\u2019s alive,\u201d the President said.\n\u201cThen roll him in.\u201d\nHoby and a deputy named Priddy followed the wheelchair into the Oval Office. The President and Critz welcomed their guests and directed them to the sitting area in front of the fireplace. Though Maynard avoided the White House, Priddy practically lived there, briefing the President every morning on intelligence matters.\nAs they settled in, Teddy glanced around the room, as if looking for bugs and listening devices. He was almost certain there were none; that practice had ended with Watergate. Nixon laid enough wire in the White House to juice a small city, but, of course, he paid for it. Teddy, however, was wired. Carefully hidden above the axle of his wheelchair, just inches below his seat, was a powerful recorder that would capture every sound made during the next thirty minutes.\nHe tried to smile at President Morgan, but he wanted to say something like: You are without a doubt the most limited politician I have ever encountered. Only in America could a moron like you make it to the top.\nPresident Morgan smiled at Teddy Maynard, but he wanted to say something like: I should have fired you four years ago. Your agency has been a constant embarrassment to this country.\nTeddy: I was shocked when you carried a single state, albeit by seventeen votes.\nMorgan: You couldn\u2019t find a terrorist if he advertised on a billboard.\nTeddy: Happy fishing. You\u2019ll get even fewer trout than votes.\nMorgan: Why didn\u2019t you just die, like everyone promised me you would?\nTeddy: Presidents come and go, but I never leave.\nMorgan: It was Critz who wanted to keep you. Thank him for your job. I wanted to sack your ass two weeks after my inauguration.\nCritz said loudly, \u201cCoffee anyone?\u201d\nTeddy said, \u201cNo,\u201d and as soon as that was established, Hoby and Priddy likewise declined. And because the CIA wanted no coffee, President Morgan said, \u201cYes, black with two sugars.\u201d Critz nodded at a secretary who was waiting in a half-opened side door.\nHe turned back to the gathering and said, \u201cWe don\u2019t have a lot of time.\u201d\nTeddy said quickly, \u201cI\u2019m here to discuss Joel Backman.\u201d\n\u201cYes, that\u2019s why you\u2019re here,\u201d the President said.\n\u201cAs you know,\u201d Teddy continued, almost ignoring the President,\n\u201cMr. Backman went to prison without saying a word. He still carries some secrets that, frankly, could compromise national security.\u201d\n\u201cYou can\u2019t kill him,\u201d Critz blurted.\n\u201cWe cannot target American citizens, Mr. Critz. It\u2019s against the law. We prefer that someone else do it.\u201d\n\u201cI don\u2019t follow,\u201d the President said.\n\u201cHere\u2019s the plan. If you pardon Mr. Backman, and if he accepts the pardon, then we will have him out of the country in a matter of hours. He must agree to spend the rest of his life in hiding. This should not be a problem because there are several people who would like to see him dead, and he knows it. We\u2019ll relocate him to a foreign country, probably in Europe where he\u2019ll be easier to watch. He\u2019ll have a new identity. He\u2019ll be a free man, and with time people will forget about Joel Backman.\u201d\n\u201cThat\u2019s not the end of the story,\u201d Critz said.\n\u201cNo. We\u2019ll wait, perhaps a year or so, then we\u2019ll leak the word in the right places. They\u2019ll find Mr. Backman, and they\u2019ll kill him, and when they do so, many of our questions will be answered.\u201d\nA long pause as Teddy looked at Critz, then the President. When he was convinced they were thoroughly confused, he continued. \u201cIt\u2019s a very simple plan, gentlemen. It\u2019s a question of who kills him.\u201d\n\u201cSo you\u2019ll be watching?\u201d Critz asked.\n\u201cWho\u2019s after him?\u201d the President asked.\nTeddy refolded his veiny hands and recoiled a bit, then he looked down his long nose like a schoolteacher addressing his little third graders. \u201cPerhaps the Russians, the Chinese, maybe the Israelis. There could be others.\u201d\nOf course there were others, but no one expected Teddy to reveal everything he knew. He never had; never would, regardless of who was president and regardless of how much time he had left in the Oval Office. They came and went, some for four years, others for eight. Some loved the espionage, others were only concerned with the latest polls. Morgan had been particularly inept at foreign policy, and with a few hours remaining in his administration, Teddy certainly was not going to divulge any more than was necessary to get the pardon.\n\u201cWhy would Backman take such a deal?\u201d Critz asked.\n\u201cHe may not,\u201d Teddy answered. \u201cBut he\u2019s been in solitary confinement for six years. That\u2019s twenty-three hours a day in a tiny cell. One hour of sunshine. Three showers a week. Bad food\u2014they say he\u2019s lost sixty pounds. I hear he\u2019s not doing too well.\u201d\nTwo months ago, after the landslide, when Teddy Maynard conceived this pardon scheme, he had pulled a few of his many strings and Backman\u2019s confinement had grown much worse. The temperature in his cell was lowered ten degrees, and for the past month he\u2019d had a terrible cough. His food, bland at best, had been run through the processor again and was being served cold. His toilet flushed about half the time. The guards woke him up at all hours of the night. His phone privileges were curtailed. The law library that he used twice a week was suddenly off-limits. Backman, a lawyer, knew his rights, and he was threatening all manner of litigation against the prison and the government, though he had yet to file suit. The fight was taking its toll. He was demanding sleeping pills and Prozac.\n\u201cYou want me to pardon Joel Backman so you can arrange for him to be murdered?\u201d the President asked.\n\u201cYes,\u201d Teddy said bluntly. \u201cBut we won\u2019t actually arrange it.\u201d\n\u201cBut it\u2019ll happen.\u201d\n\u201cAnd his death will be in the best interests of our national security?\u201d\n\u201cI firmly believe that.\u201d\nExcerpted from The Broker by John Grisham.

        "raw_content": "Guest Blogger Charlotte Hobson on the complexities of measuring religious affiliation, belief and practice among young people. This blog was first published at the Theos website on 6th April 2018.\nResearch published by Professor Stephen Bullivant of St Mary\u2019s University, London, reveals that a large proportion of 16\u201329 year olds across 22 countries identify as having \u2018no religion\u2019.\nExact percentages vary greatly \u2013 83% of young people in Poland identify as Christian, 98% in Israel belong to non\u2013Christian religious groups and 91% in the Czech Republic have no religion. However, out of the 22 countries studied, young people self\u2013identifying with a religion are the majority in 8 and the minority in 14.\nThe UK is evidence of the latter; 30% of young people here are religious (22% Christian and 8% non\u2013Christian) and 70% are non\u2013religious, according to Bullivant\u2019s statistics.\nIn recent weeks these figures have captured the attention of UK national news\u2013media. Articles outlined findings from this \u2018new shock study\u2018 and used them to describe a \u2018widespread rejection of Christianity\u2018 among British young people who are \u2018turn[ing] away\u2018 from and \u2018untouched by\u2018 religion in a modern society that is \u2018march[ing] towards\u2018 post\u2013Christianity.\nHowever, when read in the context of wider research in this area it becomes clear that such statements are inaccurate.\nFirst of all, statistics revealing low levels of religiosity among young people are nothing new.\nLast year, research by Professor Linda Woodhead revealed that British \u2018nones\u2019 (those identifying as non\u2013religious) tend to be younger rather than older \u2013 60% of those aged 18\u201324 identified as non\u2013religious and 30% identified as Christian whereas 34% of those aged 60+ identified as non\u2013religious and 60% identified as Christian. These findings are preceded by multiple academic studies revealing low levels of religious affiliation, belief and practice among young people \u2013 in 2010 one project described \u2018teenagers and young adults [as] the least churched age group in Britain\u20191.\nSecondly, it doesn\u2019t necessarily mean that young people are rejecting religion.\nBullivant is hesitant to provide commentary on his data:\nOur intention here is simply to present the relevant statistics in as clear and interesting way as possible, without venturing to hypothesize as to why they are as they are.\nThe media does offer an interpretation but their portrayal of young people \u2018rejecting\u2019 or \u2018turning away\u2019 from religion as part of a \u2018march towards\u2019 post\u2013Christianity is problematic.\nFor one thing it presents youth religiosity as a monolithic, homogenous entity and fails to recognise that though there may be a non\u2013religious majority, the proportion of young people identifying as religious is not negligible.\nSome churches seem to be engaging with large numbers of young people; charismatic churches such as !Audacious in Manchester, LIFE Church, Bradford and Hillsong, London, all boast thriving youth ministries attracting thousands of young people to their explicitly Christian annual youth conferences. Soul Survivor also pulls in large crowds. It\u2019s debatable whether attendance is evidence of personal interest in religion but nevertheless, it seems largely inconsistent with a narrative of widespread \u2018rejection\u2019 and \u2018turning away\u2019 from religion.\nThis narrative is further challenged by the fact that most \u2018nones\u2019 were never religious in the first place. Only 1 in 5 non\u2013religious young people in Bullivant\u2019s sample were \u2018nonverts\u2019 \u2013 that is, converted from identifying as religious to non\u2013religious. The rest had never belonged to a religion in their lives. Similar findings have been reported elsewhere.\nThis doesn\u2019t appear to be a rejection of religion, then, so much as a failure to engage with it at all.\nIn fact, even the choice to not engage isn\u2019t really a \u2018rejection\u2019. Studies investigating non\u2013religious individuals\u2019 attitudes reveal that they are largely indifferent towards religion. Woodhead\u2019s nones generally perceived the church as a neither positive nor negative force in society, they paid very little attention to religious leaders \u2013 though they accepted their right to speak out on certain topics \u2013 and only a minority were convinced atheists.\nVerbs such as \u2018reject\u2019 and \u2018turn away\u2019 paint youth attitudes to religion with a finality and a hostility that, according to academic research, isn\u2019t there for the most\u2013part. Moreover, regardless of attitudes towards traditional or institutional religion, research (including some published at Theos) indicates that young people are open to matters of spirituality such as miracles, healing prayer and the power of spiritual forces to influence life on earth; \u2018being non\u2013religious does not mean being faithless or even 'non\u2013spiritual\u2019.\nClearly, youth religiosity is complex. An image of the world\u2019s young people collectively marching away from religion is dramatic, and in terms of selling newspapers its appeal is obvious. It is also unhelpfully inaccurate. There is no universal youth response or attitude towards religion or belief. Any intimation otherwise is simplistic bordering on patronizing, putting words in young people\u2019s mouths instead of listening to them.\nNo doubt some do actively reject religion, but there are many who don\u2019t hold such strong views and some who actively engage with it. Bullivant\u2019s statistics have the potential to shape how religious groups \u2013 and wider society \u2013 perceive and engage with young people and as a result, we need to interpret them accurately. The media\u2019s proclamations that they are \u2018shock new\u2019 results evidencing that young people are uniformly \u2018rejecting\u2019 or \u2018turning away from\u2019 religion and \u2018marching towards\u2019 a post\u2013Christian society implies that in order to survive, religious groups must focus efforts on preventing young people from leaving. However, if we understand the data in the context of wider academic discussion it seems that a more effective response would involve efforts to get them engaged in the first place.\n1 Giselle Vincett and Sylvia Collins\u2013Mayo, \u2018(Dis)engagements with Christianity amongst young people in England and Scotland\u2019, Annual Review of the Sociology of Religion: Volume 1: Youth and Religion, ed. Giuseppe Giordan, (2010), pp. 219 \u2013 249 (p. 226).\nCharlotte graduated with a degree in Theology from Durham University in 2016 and completed a Masters in Religious Studies at Lancaster University in 2017. She then spent 6 months as a research assistant intern with Religion and Society Think Tank, Theos, and is about to take up a new role with Graduate Prospects, researching trends among British university graduates. She is particularly interested in studying non-religion among British young people \u2013 her MA dissertation explored an uncharacteristically popular Christian youth group in North West England \u2013 and she hopes to pursue a PhD in this area in the near future.",
